Williams Lake city council is considering asking government to allow Mount Polley Mine to resume its operations, even though a cleanup plan for the mining disaster has yet to be approved by government.

On Aug. 4, the mine’s tailings pond failed, spilling more than 14 million cubic metres of water and mine waste into Quesnel and Polley Lakes. Council recommended sending a letter to the premier during a committee of the whole meeting Tuesday after discussing a report prepared by Coun.
Surinderpal Rathor who said he had been approached by many mine employees. “As the mine is a significant employer and contributor to the local economy, ceasing production will have significant effects on employees, suppliers, and those who are related to the mine either directly or

Investigation underway Continued From Page A1 “By sending a letter to government we are saying how important the mine is to Williams Lake and the region,” Cook said. NDP leader John Horgan agreed with council’s request that people get back to work as soon as possible, but insisted there’s a comprehensive investigation underway that needs to unfold first. “We don’t even have a clue if they are asking the right questions because we don’t have access to the materials the investigators have,” Horgan said. Horgan said he would rather see Imperial Metals putting as many people to work on the mitigation and rehabilitation. “To open the mine before we have an understanding of what went on is premature.” From a regulatory standpoint Imperial

Metals would have to go through a number of steps in order to re-open, said David Haslam, deputy minister of energy of mines. “This includes a requirement for the operator to submit a Mines Act permit amendment application,” Haslam told the Tribune. “This application would need to address items such as remediation of the tailings storage facility, an update to the mine plan, identification of secure storage for tailings, and an update to water management and monitoring programs.” First Nations and public consultation would also be part of the process, Haslam said. United Steelworkers Union financial secretary Bob MacNair said 300 union members are presently working on the cleanup at the mine. “Only 20 of our members who are underground specialists were laid off.”
Macnair said Mount Polley Mine manager Dale Reimer attended the meeting and told council the company is going from week to week, only able to promise work as permits for rehabilitation are approved. “We all want the mine to reopen but we all know there are environmental standards and processes under the law that have to be met and nobody opposes those,” Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett said. “Ministry of Environment’s approval of the cleanup plan has to be the first step.” Once the cleanup plan is signed off, Barnett hopes people can continue to be employed to do the remediation to move forward. “Hopefully Red Chris opens soon so Imperial Metals can have some money coming in to help Mount Polley stay on board,” Barnett added.

Residents upset with possible closure Cast ballot on pool to South Lakeside boat access Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer City council is recommending closing vehicle and motor boat access to the lake at Dutch Point Road because of safety concerns, a move that doesn’t sit well with some local residents. “We gathered a petition last spring with 300 signatures against the closure,” Greg Van Soest told the Tribune Wednesday. “Why hasn’t there been any consultation with residents? I have been using that boat launch for more than 30 years and now it’s
suddenly a safety issue?” Lakes have to have legal access at certain intervals, he said, insisting the access shouldn’t be blocked there until another boat launch is built on the lake. “I’m upset,” he said. “When we took our petition to city council they told us they would get ahold of CN Rail to try and make a new boat launch,” Van Soest recalled. “They will have to consult the federal and provincial governments and that will take at least two years.” The decision to close
vehicle access at the boat launch was discussed at the committee of the whole meeting Tuesday, but no final decisions were made. People will still access the lake at Dutch Point Road, but won’t be able to go in there by vehicle. In his report, planner Nigel Whitehead said an informal turnaround at the end of Dutch Point Road, located mostly on private property, has since been blocked by the property owner, meaning there is now no turn-around for Dutch Point Road. “The only area for public turn-around is
to make a three point turn into the existing lake access,” Whitehead noted. “This can be a somewhat difficult maneuver as the lake access drops off quite sharply.” Provision of a turnaround at the end of Dutch Point Road will be addressed separately by the works department, in order to deal with effective delivery of services such as emergency response, snow clearing and solid waste pickup, he added. “Creating and improving access to the lake is a priority,” Mayor Kerry Cook
said. “We’re not closing access, but restricting vehicle access. Council has asked staff to look at other options for lake access and make recommendations to improve the beach, boat launch and access into Scout Island.” If vehicle lake access is closed at Dutch Point Road, staff will look into developing rightangle parking on the road, although in that plan there would only be enough room for three regular parking spaces, one disability parking space and one space for turnaround/ loading.
Halloween night to prompt police presence Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Williams Lake RCMP will beef up its resources for Halloween since the spooky holiday falls on a Friday. “It’s a weekend and with that comes usually more interest for adults around parties and so-
cial events that often include alcohol,” Insp. Warren Brown said. “We will make sure we have a strong presence at liquor establishments, to ensure people are safe and encourage those without a ride home are safe.” If people know the police are out, it might
also deter people from drinking and driving, he added. Halloween night is one of the few nights in the year, other than New Year’s and other special events like the Stampede, where the detachment bolsters its presence on the road, Brown explained.

the roadways safely, he added. “There will be a police presence to deter any sort of dangerous driving.” Motorists are cautioned to be vigilant and children need to make safe choices to make sure they are visible, he said.

Ever wonder why we link colds with cold weather? Our mothers always told us to button up ... or you’ll catch a cold. But the cold is caused by viruses not cold weather. Colds are more common in winter because people spend more time indoors, living closer together giving the virus a better chance to spread. Frequent hand washing will minimize that spread. To get the most of your time in your doctor’s office, be prepared. Make a list of symptoms regarding your problem including what it is, when it occurs, for how long and how often and anything you’ve tried that helps or worsens the problem.

Despite the economic downturn, there has been $84 million worth of investment in the community, 10 to 20 new homes being built a year, and $14.5 million in repaving during her two terms, she said. Another highlight was the Truth and Reconciliation event in 2013 and last week’s provincial apology for the hanging of Tsilhqot’in chiefs 150 years ago. “These events are powerful examples of what is possible

Teacher strike cheques in mail Tom Fletcher Black Press The B.C. government has sent out 165,000 cheques to B.C. parents to compensate them for school days lost in the teacher strike in September, accounting for more than half of the students eligible for the $40-a-day payments. The finance ministry reports that nearly 230,000 families have registered for the pay-
ments, which cover 13 school days missed in September before a contract was reached and teachers returned to work. Those families represent 295,000 children aged 12 and under enrolled in public school, 97 per cent of the total eligible. Finance Minister Mike de Jong said the first batch of cheques went out Oct. 20. He said with the vast number of applications it’s possible there will be “glitches” due

to data entry errors, and some applications are taking longer to verify. “For children who were not in public school last year, for example children now in kindergarten for the first time, it will take a week or two longer to process those cheques,” de Jong said. Payments to the students who have registered represent a $15.3 million cost to the provincial treasury, equivalent to payroll savings during the strike.

Cheque registries are published monthly, and the city has started an “Open Gov.” site which shares financial information. “When I came into office in 2008, the previous council had borrowed more than $12 million dollars in long-term borrowing,” Cook recalled. “We’ve improved it, still have $15 million in longterm debt, which is 30 per cent of our borrowing capacity with $5 million in reserves.” Looking to the next term, Cook said she wants to see downtown improvements, the Highway 97 upgrades, and while she will respect the voters’ wishes, she hopes the pool upgrades referendum will be endorsed.

Locals look for ways to show respect to soldiers Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Remembrance Day wreaths are quickly being spoken for and poppies are in high demand early since attacks were made against Canadian soldiers last week. Royal Canadian Legion Branch 139 President Bonnie O’Neill said she has seen a heightened interest locally in marking Remembrance Day in the days following the shooting deaths of Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent, 53, and Cpl. Nathan Cirillo, 24. “More people are stepping up requesting wreaths and crosses for our service on Nov. 11,” O’Neill said. Every year the legion in Williams Lake co-ordinates the poppy campaign, with help from local army and sea cadets. Joe Bazan is the chair of the poppy campaign, which will have poppies out to merchants by Friday, Oct. 31.
Bazan said the campaign kicked off nationally on Tuesday morning, provincially a few hours later and in cities by the afternoon. “On Friday wreaths and crosses will be displayed at some local businesses,” Bazan said. “Reserves in the backroom for wreaths and crosses are pressed to the limit.” During the weekend cadets will be doing a poppy blitz around the community, he added. Poppies are available by donation and locally all the money raised goes into a trust account for the benefit of veterans and active members of the armed services. Another way for people to contribute is to text the word “poppy” to the number 20222 and $5 will be donated toward the provincial poppy fund. “I don’t text but it’s a way for people who are using technology to get involved,” Bazan said.

The Poppy Campaign officially got underway this week in Williams Lake with Mayor Kerry Cook receiving a poppy from Royal Canadian Legion Branch 139 President Bonnie O’Neill Tuesday. Poppies have been in demand early this year due to the two attacks against Canadian soldiers on home soil in recent weeks. The first time Bazan wore a poppy it was 1964 and his family was living in Quesnel. “I was in Grade 10 and my dad was a second world war vet,” he recalled.
When asked if there’s a trick to securing a poppy he suggested putting it back through the fabric, bending the end over or using a little plastic plug from a
corsage. “We want as many poppies out there as possible so if you lose one get another one. You don’t have to pay again if you do lose one.”
Volunteers are needed for the ceremony taking place on Tuesday, Nov. 11. Bazan can be reached at 250-3927210 (home) or at the legion (250-392-7311).

Taking Halloween precautions This year, the annual celebration of Halloween will collide with the beginning of the weekend, tonight. Weekends and Halloween can be a potent mix sometimes, as the activities of young trickor-treaters collide with those of adults who want to celebrate the end of a work week, and in the case of Halloween, often use it as an occasion for a party. There are, however, several alternatives in Williams Lake today, as outlined on page A10. Many children of course love the experience of dressing up and going door-to-door, and there are plenty of ways for them to stay safe. Parents should accompany them, and wearing some type of reflective clothing and carrying flashlights is very helpful as well. While trick or treating usually doesn’t go on too late, drivers need to be very careful tonight. The weather has not been particularly great and it will be very dark, no matter what
weather conditions are. Taking some extra precautions will be a good idea. As fireworks are not being sold in most areas as part of Halloween any longer, there are fewer issues involving their misuse. Nonetheless, there are always a few individuals who manage to get their hands on some fireworks, so caution is encouraged — both for those who set off fireworks, and for those who are in the vicinity. Police and fire department personnel usually expect a busy Halloween and are likely to be out in force, so those contemplating illegal activities might wish to keep that in mind. Thinking ahead about how to enjoy Halloween in a safe and responsible way is a good way to ensure that all goes well. It can be a fun evening, but at the same time, it is good to take precautions, given some of the things that inevitably happen that evening — and the fall weather and darkness. - Black Press

Halloween day and night always a favourite for this pumpkin I love Halloween. When I was a kid it was always fun and as a mom I loved collaborating with my husband to make costumes for our children. Even as an adult I’ve enjoyed dressing up, although it doesn’t work out every year. In 2010 I showed up for work at the Prince Rupert Daily News as Miss Fish Farmed 2030. I was a combination of a lobster and a salmon. Last year I was a woman warrior and the year before I grabbed a black wig and came to work as “Black Pressed.” Peeling back the layers of my memories, the first costume I remember wearing was a fox. My mom had a fox tail so when our kindergarten teacher helped us

make our own masks, I knew exactly what I wanted to be. While I was out trick-or-treating with my dad, that darn tail kept falling off. Mom had bobby-pinned it to the back of my jacket, but it wasn’t working. Every few houses I’d realize my tail was gone so dad would walk back and find it for me. One year a local organization
hosted a Halloween dance party for youngsters and my neighbourhood friend and I attended. I was in ballet and got a brilliant idea we should wear black leotards and body suits and go as salt and pepper. I fashioned hats that looked like salt shaker tops. By the time Halloween arrived we were always already so full of candy. My elementary school held a Penny Carnival with lots of treats. Each grade had its contributions, ranging from bingo and the white elephant table to a haunted house or in my Grade 7 year, a seance. Our classmate Shauna dressed up and as younger children timidly approached she said: “Eenie Meenie Jelly Beanie the Spirits are
about to appear.” We all giggled behind the curtains. My husband is more crafty and creative than I am when it comes to making costumes. When our eldest was in kindergarten the two of them sat at a table, cuting out and colouring hundreds of feathers for a bird costume. Later when Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter were favourite bedtime reading material, we created Legolas, Malfoy, Ginny and Harry Potter costumes. We didn’t own a sewing machine in those days so I’d start looking in the thrift store a few weeks in advance to see what could be transformed easily.
For several days we’d be working with scissors, a thread and needle to complete costumes in time. There were standbys like a super warm dragon costume that every little boy wore. I made a long cloak out of a sheet with a fur-trimmed hood, that was recycled throughout the years. Today our youngest is 15 and said Thursday his gang is going in themed costumes to school Friday because a friend’s grandma made them outfits. That’s great, I told him, and then sighed, realizing those days of making costumes for our children have vanished. Monica Lamb-Yorski is a staff writer with the Williams Lake Tribune/Weekend Advisor.

Thai pumpkin soup a warm Halloween night treat Save your decorative pumpkin for good use Happy Halloween folks! Tonight is a time for all young citizens of our community to go door to door looking for treats. Getting dressed in some kind of costume is always a big part of the festivities for the youngsters. Procuring popcorn balls, homemade candy, store type sweets, and more is the ‘rite’ of those going door to door singing out ‘trick or treat.’ So, after all the decorations for the big evening are complete, what do you plan to do with your pumpkin? Don’t throw it away, because there are so many different dishes that can be made featuring the iconic symbol of Halloween. You could make

pumpkin pie ice cream, pumpkin quesadillas, pumpkin pie milkshake, many different kinds of pumpkin soups and of course pumpkin pie and many other great desserts. A lot of pumpkin recipes need
a pumpkin puree to start. Take a medium size pumpkin cut into quarters, clean out seeds and stringy stuff and bake in a 400 degree oven for 30 to 90 minutes depending upon size. Scoop out flesh and then in a bowl mash it with a fork, or in some soups you may want to put in a blender for a smoother consistency. You need only about 30 ounces of pumpkin puree for a soup, dessert, or other dishes so don’t throw the pumpkin away after it has served its decorative purpose this Halloween. My wife makes the very best pumpkin pie and so we store a few pumpkins away in the cool room and they last for some
time, enough to make some pumpkin smoothies and a good soup, when the snow is on the ground. Because pumpkin is so versatile as a food I thought I would pass along a real different way using it. Thai Pumpkin Soup • 2 tbsp red curry paste • 4 cups of chicken or vegetable stock • 30 ounces of pumpkin puree ... you can use the tin type if not fresh • 1 tin of coconut milk ...save a tbsp for decoration • 1 large red chili pepper sliced thinly • Cilantro for garnish In a pan over medium heat
cook the curry paste for about one or two minutes, until it becomes nice and fragrant. Add the broth and the pumpkin, then stir. Cook for three minutes or until it starts to bubble, add the coconut milk and cook until hot. Ladle soup into bowls, garnish with one tablespoon of the saved coconut milk, then add a few cilantro leaves if you like. A nice way to use pumpkin. Drive with care and caution with young ones out on the street tonight. Bye for now and Goood Cooking. Ken Wilson is a freelance columnist with the Tribune/Weekend Advisor.

COMMUNITY BUILDERS Johnson donates handcrafted bench for Hospice raffle Rudy Johnson began making benches, tables and chairs as a hobby more than 25 years ago. Throughout the years many of his pieces have been donated to community groups and fundraisers in the community. One of the longest lasting relationships Rudy has had is with the Williams Lake Hospice Society (formerly the Central Cariboo Hospice Palliative Care Society). Rudy has supported Hospice for many years. Rudy was asked to donate one of his benches a few years ago, so Hospice could use it as a prize in their raffle fundraiser. Since that first connection, Rudy has donated a hand built wooden bench that Hospice raffles off with great success every year. Rudy’s woodworking projects are quite famous and have found homes as far away as Colorado. Others have found homes on Vancouver Island, Kelowna, 100 Mile House, Kamloops, Bella Coola, Anahim, Chezacut, Alexis Creek, Meldrum Creek and Prince George. Rudy continues to build at his home workshop. He has just finished a model plane of a Beaver airplane weathervane that flies in

Of God and Zombies You can hardly be alive today and not constantly hear about zombies – undead “walkers” who have invaded our cultural dialogue like an unstoppable horde. Numerous writers have commented how zombies are a figure for our society’s greatest internal fears. Perhaps so, but I’ve noticed something else about the whole zombification of our world. People like the thrill of fear, but few want to step out of the safety zone. What really brought this to mind for me was a trip to Victoria last fall. Our province’s capital always has lots of people in the streets, from tourists, to buskers, to the homeless, but what I saw that day was a first for me: a Zombie Walk. Hundreds of participants had donned their worst rags, plastered themselves with bogus blood and imitation injuries, and were now lurching and moaning their way to the waterfront as a parade of the undead. It was hilarious. What made me chuckle wasn’t just a bunch of grown-ups playing dressup, but rather what I noticed on the periphery: officers of the Victoria Police. The officers were sharply uniformed, professional in their demeanor, and in no way resembled the mob they were escorting. What made me laugh was the irony that a zombie horde needed to be protected by the cops. Really? Should they not strike terror in the hearts of all in their path? Should drivers not abandon their cars, pedestrians flee in panic, at the sight of these unstoppable flesh-eaters? Not today. They needed protecting from the rest of us, it would appear. Like I said, people like to feel the thrill of fear without having to step out of
PARSONS PEN
BY Chris harder the safety zone. The zombie walk was case-in-point, but there are plenty of examples. Think of people watching horror movies to get a good scare, while they munch popcorn and sip diet pop in the comfort of their seat. Picture young men playing a video game that lets them experience the thrill of warfare without the sweat of basic training. When they get shot the screen fades to red and they re-spawn; no one dies or has to go back home with a life-changing injury. It is the thrill of danger with all the real danger of a bag of chips. I’ve noticed that a lot of people who talk about God seem to want a pretty safe God, too. Preferred by many is a God who comforts them like a warm kitten, not a God who fills them with fear. There is little talk of the big, untamed, dangerous deity described in the Bible - almost like they’d prefer to forget that image. Yet the bible says,
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” Allow me to explain why I want a big, scary God, and why the God you really want is a God who fills you with awe, not a cuddly God who makes you say “Awwww!” Here’s why: because kittens are no good in a fight. Sure, they get their backs up and hiss, maybe scratch and bite a little. But faced with a real threat they turn and run every time. You don’t need a God like that. A God who’s all cuddles and comfort will do you no good when life bares its very real fangs at you. When everything is on the line I want someone big and scary in my corner – for the same reason that diplomats want bodyguards and zombie walkers want a police escort. They keep us safe from real threats. Just think how glad our leaders in Ottawa were last week that the Sergeant-At-Arms was actually armed, not just a ceremonial figure! The truth is that, “The fear of the LORD leads to life: Then one rests content, untouched by trouble.” When you have a big God you can live without fear. I’m thinking of friends serving in very difficult places as I write this. Because of their fear of God, they can ultimately live without fear of things like terrorists and Ebola. And even when Christians suffer and die (and many have), they do so with the confidence that God is still very much in control and their hope is not in vain. Why is that? Because Christians are not zombies. They are people who have entrusted their lives to Jesus Christ not a walking dead man, but a living Saviour. Trust him and know a life of real confidence, not just a life of safe thrill-seeking.

Chiwid concert a huge success Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer Canadian Mezzo Soprano Ingrid Mapson delighted the lakecity audience with her concert last week that ended with a standing ovation and an encore. The concert was held Sunday, Oct. 19 at St. Peter’s Anglican Church as a fundraiser for Chiwid Transition House and raised almost $1,000 of which half will be donated to Chiwid House, says Lindy LaPointe, one of the event organizers. “Concert goers enjoyed an afternoon of beautiful music and also learned something of the important role that the Chiwid Transition House plays in our community,” LaPointe said. Tamara Garreau, the Cariboo Friendship Society’s children who witness abuse coordinator was among many community members sending letters of thanks to Mapson for the concert. “I believe your powerful performance moved people’s hearts and encouraged them to be even more generous with their donations towards a great cause,” Garreau said. “The funds will be directly used to better the lives of the women and children accessing the services of the Chiwid Transition House. The funds will help provide women and children with the

and Culture Society, singer and theatrical performer in his own right, was equally impressed. “Ingrid’s performance demonstrated a fine vocal range, eclectic musical variety and a welcome enthusiasm in delivering her selections. Cameos by Ingrid’s son, and her turns on flute and piano were enjoyable demonstrations of broad instrumental talent to go with a beautiful voice and a beautiful performer.” Sage Birchwater who wrote the book Chiwid, for whom the Chiwid Transition House was named also expessed his awe at Mapson’s talent. “I was impressed with the professional quality of her singing and the range of the songs she sang,” Birchwater said. “I didn’t realize we had such talent in our area.” Birchwater said he was pleased to see that the concert organizers gave Mapson and her accompanist Sherry Day a copy of the Chiwid book (now in its fourth printing) because a portion of every sale of the book goes to Chiwid Transition House. He said it was also fun to hear her sing everything from blues to opera, musicals to hymns, songs such as Can’t Help Lovin’ that Man of Mine, New York, New York, Route 66, Summertime and Danny Boy. “I haven’t ever heard Danny Boy sung so well,” Birchwater said.

Gavin Lake gets Rick Hansen seal of approval After touring Cariboo communities this week, Rick Hansen said he’s very proud of all the accessibility upgrades he visited. “It’s fantastic people are paying attention to opening up small communities for people with disabilities,” Hansen told the Tribune Wednesday. “Every time I come back to my hometown of Williams Lake I see how people are knocking down barriers and continuing the Man in Motion Dream.” Hansen was in Williams Lake on his Man in Motion 25th Anniversary Tour in 2012 and unveiled a monument honouring the tour. Since that visit he’s noticed new accessible upgrades at Boitanio Park, Scout Island and the Churn Creek Protected Area, he said. On Tuesday Hansen visited the newly completed wheelchair accessible 365-me-
tre Gavin Lakeshore Trail with his friend Roger Gysel of Williams Lake, one of the many volunteers who worked on the trail. “The new trail adds so much to an already incredible facility,” Hansen said of Gavin Lake Forest Education Centre. “I’m so proud of the centre’s manager Mike Tudor.” Tudor said it was an honour having Hansen visit the site. The trail has been two years in the making, with the last nail hammered in just in time for Hansen’s visit, Tudor added. “He was very impressed with the trail and hopes it gets plenty of use,” Tudor said. “There were almost 2,000 volunteers helping pack wood up the trail to the construction crew for the last two years.” Most of the volunteer hours were donated by Grade 6 students attending the Fall School Program at the centre, he said. Funding for the trail was made possible

from a variety of organizations under the umbrella of the Cariboo Regional District, including the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development, Northern Development Initiative Trust, the Cariboo Chilcotin Beetle Action Coalition and the Gavin Lake Forest Education Society. Gavin Lake is an example of what people working at the grass roots level can accomplish, Hansen said. While in the Cariboo, Hansen also toured accessible upgrades in the community of Likely with his former classmate Jim Gibson who is a resident there. “I was impressed to see the community so focused on accessibility,” Hansen said. The Rick Hansen Foundation has developed an online accessibility rating system which can serve as a guide for visitors. People can rate buildings, communities, schools and facilities from one to five

stars, leave comments and share them with everyone. “When people see how accessible this area is they will want to visit,” Hansen said. It is anticipated in 2030 one in five Canadians will have some sort of disability, with the growing demographic of baby boomers, Hansen predicted, suggesting Williams Lake needs to prepare for this reality and create a competitive advantage. While in town Hansen also had the opportunity to visit with his father Marvin, who he said still plays a mean game of crib. He also travelled to 100 Mile House Wednesday to visit a newly completed trail at 99-Mile and then expected to be home in Richmond with his family by evening. The Hansens have three adult-aged daughters — Emma, Alana and Rebecca. This April Emma will have her first baby, making Rick a proud grandpa, he said.

Day has managed the UBC Alex Fraser Research Forest near Williams Lake since it was first established in 1987. “In Williams Lake and surrounding communities, Ken is the face of UBC,” states the UBC notice recognizing the award. “During his years in the community, Ken has demonstrated excellence as a manager field forester, academic associate, volunteer

The research forest has an office in Williams Lake and manages 10,000 hectares of forest on two separate
blocks, one at Knife Creek south of Williams Lake and the other at Gavin Lake near Big Lake. Between the two blocks there are three different climatic conditions. In addition to maintaining the financial viability of the research forest through good economic times and bad, Day has demonstrated how B.C.’s
interior forests can be managed to reduce wildfire and beetle hazards, as well as the integration of timber production, fuel management and grassland restoration. Under Day’s guidance and leadership, the university research forests have become an irreplaceable educational tool in the forestry profession, and

Are you in favour of the Cariboo Regional District adopting Bylaws 4906 and 4907, which will authorize the borrowing of up to $10 million over 20 years and increase the Central Cariboo Recreation and Leisure Services annual taxation limit to a maximum of the greater of $3,500,000 or $1.98/$1,000 of assessed value of land and improvements, to provide for the upgrade and renovation of the pool and amenities at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex? (Based on 2014 assessed values, the estimated annual cost to undertake this borrowing and operate the upgraded pool translates to a residential tax rate increase of approximately $40/$100,000. The new taxation limit for recreation services of $3,500,000 translates to a residential tax rate of $148/$100,000 of the net taxable assessed value of land and improvements.)

Falcons swoop to North Central Zone title Greg Sabatino Staff Writer The Lake City Secondary Falcons senior boys’ soccer team will compete at the 2014 Provincial Soccer Championships. The Falcons hosted the North Central ‘AAA’ Zone Championships last weekend in Williams Lake at the LCSS Columneetza Campus Friday and Saturday. Williams Lake knocked off the Correlieu Clan of Quesnel Saturday, 5-3, in the final. “It was a great game,” said Falcons’ head coach Brian Hansen. “A little too close.” Quesnel struck first near the five minute mark before the Falcons began to apply offensive pressure. By half time the Falcons
had blasted off to a 4-1 lead. “[But] a red card late in the half meant we’d be a player short for the rest of the game,” Hansen said. “The fatigue of being a player short began to show [in the second half].” With 15 minutes left in the game the Clan had narrowed the lead to 4-3 and were carrying the majority of the play in Lake City’s end. “Quesnel had several very skilled players but [we] did a great job of being patient and blocking the attack outside of the 18-yard box and took away almost all shooting opportunities,” Hansen said. With just 10 minutes left in the final Williams Lake seized an opportunity on the counter attack and tallied one more goal which

Falcons close out season with home tournament The Lake City Falcons junior and senior boys rugby teams hosted a five-team tournament during the weekend at the Ottoman Drive rugby fields. Junior boys coach Jason Ryll said the Falcons split its weekend games versus teams from Burns Lake, Smithers, Houston and Fort St. John. In total close to 60 players took part in the tournament. “We put in a pretty strong showing,” Ryll said. “We were missing a few key players — especially our seniors — due to injuries from the weekend before in Burns Lake.” On Friday during the lunch break players were split up onto mixed teams to compete in a two-hand touch exhibition. “That was so the guys could meet other players and get a chance to get to know them a little more socially,” he
said. “The kids really seemed to enjoy it and it was quite fun.” On Saturday a blanket of snow covered the Ottoman Drive fields where mixed teams, again, played another exhibition. This time, however, the games were full contact. “I give them credit. The kids got out there and really enjoyed that, too,” Ryll said, noting the fun-filled games put a close to the Falcons’ rugby season until the spring. In girls rugby the Falcons recently went on a northern barn-storming tour from Oct. 1719 facing teams from Vanderhoof, Houston and Prince George. The Falcons’ senior girls went undefeated against Vanderhoof on Oct. 17 while the junior girls won one and lost one. On Oct. 18 Lake City met Houston where the senior girls won all

Students inspired by We Day Vancouver Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer A group of nine students from Lake City Secondary Columneetza Campus were among the 20,000 youth, educators and guests from around B.C. participating in We Day Vancouver last week. The day-long “massive classroom for change,” took place at Rogers Arena in Vancouver Oct. 22 featuring speeches and songs by celebrities such as actor and humanitarian Orlando Bloom,
actor/singer/ UNICEF goodwill ambassador Selena Gomez, martial arts and movie icon Donnie Yen, rowing Olympian and inspirational speaker Silken Laumann, and many others. The day was capped off with a surprise performance by Jennifer Lopez. “The place just erupted when Jennifer Lopez came out to perform a medley of her new songs,” says teacher Mike Wilson who arranged the trip and accompanied the students along with two parent chaperones.

The group travelled to Vancouver together on a school bus a day before We Day, arriving in Vancouver in time to spend a couple of hours at Science World before dinner at their nearby hotel, then touring Robson Street and getting a quick tour of the Vancouver Library before it closed. They finished off the first evening with icecream hot dogs at Japadog and a swim in the hotel pool. Despite the busy day they were up at six a.m. the next morning in order to pick the best seats available in their section at Rogers Arena for We Day. Wilson said they were fortunate to get seats in the lower bowl, 10 rows up from the boards. Throughout the day, the audience danced and came alive to electric performances from Nick Jonas, Shawn Mendes, Marianas Trench, Neverest, Kardinal Offishall and JRDN. Numerous speakers talked about overcoming adversity and the roles in helping to make the world a better place in which to live. Wilson said Silken Laumann inspired the crowd with her story about having her leg shattered in a boating accident, and going on to win a bronze medal at the Olympics just two-and a half months later. Student Taylor Brink said she was inspired by Orlando Bloom sharing the story about how he

Doctors told him he would never walk again, but when he walked out of the hospital 12 days later he realized he had been taking his life for granted and decided to work to bring positive change in the world.

who started Me to We Artisans who are paid fairly for their skills and many others. Wilson said you can’t buy tickets to We Day, they have to be earned by making a commitment to making a difference in the world locally and globally through a year-long educational initiative called We Act. Among their initiatives the Be the Change Club is collecting food for the local food bank and working to raise $10,000 this school year to build a school in Africa. Wilson said he had known about We Day
Vancouver for a while but only learned how to apply for the tickets in the summer. His application was late but he was fortunate to be put on a waiting list and be granted 10 tickets to the event, one for him and nine for students. During the second week of school Wilson said he started a Be the Change Club at the school to inspire positive action among the grades 7, 8 and 9 students at the school. The club has had about 15 members from the beginning with some students from each grade. To select just nine
of the students for We Day Vancouver he had interested students write a letter explaining why they wanted to attend and watched how interested they were in school projects. Fortunately he said there were also tickets available at the gate for the parent chaperones. Wilson says the We Day Vancouver event will be shown on MTV Nov. 11 at 5 p.m. and on CTV Nov. 22 starting at 4 p.m. People who have fundraising ideas for the Be the Change Club can email Wilson at Michael.Wilson@sd27. bc.ca.
Inspired to improve the world Lake City Secondary students in the Be the Change Club at the Columneetza campus found great inspiration at We Day Vancouver. “We Day taught me that even though you are a kid you can make a positive change in the world by doing little things like buying a Rafiki bracelet to support mothers in Kenya, and volunteering your time to help others,” said Chloe Lutters. Emma Pittman said: “At We Day there were so many inspiring things … we can make a difference by getting 25 toonies to buy a goat, if we fundraised we could build a school. We can make a difference.”
Gabrielle Pierce said: “I loved all the stories that were told about how one small act can lead to a world-wise cause, like Pink Shirt Day. If you ever think even for a moment, that you can’t do anything to help the world and the people around us then think again. There are so many fundraisers and activities that you can do to make the world a better place. “For example our school club, Be the Change is doing a food drive, a fundraiser for the African Mama’s by selling their handmade bracelets, selling candy bags for donations, raising money for goats,
vowing for 24 hours of silence to support those being bullied, and so much more.” Ali Waterhouse said: “For me, We Day was the beginning of changing Me to We. I now try to wake up every day thinking ‘what can I do today to make someone a little happier’ ... We day helped me realize that one of the greatest gifts you can give is a smile.” Taylor Brink said: ‘To me, We Day wasn’t just a trip to see famous people, it was a chance for me to open up my eyes and to start really enjoying what I am lucky to have.” She also stated her helping goals for the year.

Film club screens The Bridge Krista Liebe Special to Tribune/Advisor The Williams Lake Film Club has chosen a special film for Remembrance Day, The Bridge, or Die Brücke, as it is called in Germany. The Bridge is considered one of the most important and best-known anti-war films ever to come out of Germany. It tells the story of seven 15 and 16 year old academic high school students who become involved in the defense of a bridge in their town during the last days of the Second World War. They live in a sleepy small town which has so far been spared by actions of war. But based on ever stronger pro-
Scene from The Bridge. paganda over the radio and through newspapers, these boys are truly excited to finally get a chance to defend their town and their country. They are young kids looking for adventure, but in actuality they are “canon fodder” as it was then called. They were used to keep up the pretense and the morale.

The film was made in 1958 and released in Germany in 1959. During that time Germany was still suffering the effects of the war very visibly. There was not much available for filming equipment. All instructions had to be given via megaphone, there were no tanks, so
Radon hot spots in Interior Greg Baytalan Starff Writer According to Health Canada, about seven per cent of the Canadian homes have radon gas levels that may be putting residents at risk. Here in the B.C. Interior we have some “hot spot” areas with high radon levels in approximately 40 per cent of homes. Radon gas is the second leading cause of lung cancer after smoking. Radon is a naturally occurring gas found in the ground throughout the world. Most homes that are in contact with the ground will contain some amount of radon gas. Radon becomes more of a concern when it reaches high levels. Radon levels vary across the country. Many houses contain recreation rooms or suites in the basement that are occupied for many hours per day. Being heavier than air, radon accumulates in low lying areas like basements and can be drawn to higher floors within the building through natural indoor air movement. Radon in combination with tobacco smoke, including second-hand smoke can increase the risk substantially. Health Canada estimates that one in three smokers exposed to
high radon levels will develop lung cancer. Radon gas is colourless, odourless and tasteless, so the only way to know if the radon levels in your home are high is to conduct testing. The best time to test your home for radon gas is now through April. During the cooler months windows and doors are often closed and rising warm air in a home draws more radon from the ground. Testing a home is easy and inexpensive. Testing involves placing a small puck-like kit within the lowest area of the home that could be occupied for more than four hours per day. The kit should remain in that location for a minimum of three months and then mailed to a laboratory for results.
Just because your neighbours tested their homes and found low results does not mean your home is low too. This is because factors beyond the local geology influence the levels within a building. Essentially, radon takes the path of least resistance, and resistance can vary between homes. Radon can enter a home through the foundation, including concrete, and more so through cracks in a foundation or dirt floor such as older crawl spaces. It can also enter a home through the ventilation system. For more information go to website http://www. hc-sc.gc.ca/hl-vs/iyhvsv/environ/radoneng.php Greg Baytalan is a Specialist Environmental Health Officer with Interior Health.

they built wooden models. The film was to be presented in April, so they had dozens of unemployed men pull off the leaves of the trees to make it believable. The kids were just that, kids, not actors, although some of them have become great actors since. These are some of the minor efforts Wicki went through to get his film done. The Bridge is based on an autobiography written by one such young soldier. One day the kids are in school, living a relatively normal life, the next day they are in “war,” with all its consequences. The Bridge received countless awards in Germany. It also received the Golden
Globe Award, an Academy Award nomination for best Foreign Film and a special Peace Award from the United Nations. But I like best what the director Bernhard Wicki said: “Thousands of young men have written me that my film was the reason for them to become conscientious war objectors. I consider this my greatest achievement.” In Germany today, as a conscientious objector you work in a social or nursing field. It is believed that without conscientious objectors, hospitals and nursing homes would be in severe trouble. The Bridge will be shown Tuesday, Nov. 4, at the Gibraltar Room, 7 p.m.; back doors open at 6:30 p.m.

When he had heard that she had moved from Hong Kong to Vancouver and then to Horsefly, he asked her all about what it was like here. Michelle of course told him all about our wonderful community and said he should come and see it in person! (So you never know maybe we will be getting a visit from Peter Mansbridge in the future!)

solid wood panels. The timber roof uses a principle rafter system with perlins rather than common rafters which improves the building envelope while allowing a thick roof build-up that looks thinner than it is. The front deck has a glass roof allowing full enjoyment of the westcoast weather. The timberwork on all exposed decks is capped with a waterproof membrane (armour guard or steel
flashing). Large braces are used to cantilever portions of the deck to minimize foundation work required. The basement is constructed from insulated concrete forms which for a remote location help limit the concrete required and no forms have to be rented. Energy efficiency also exceeds traditional basements. The masonry fireplace is double sided allowing enjoy-
ment of the fire in the bedroom and the living room. The open loft could be an office or bedroom and has full views through the glass and timber gables. The workshop in the basement has its own access to the covered storage area under the deck so messy items don’t need to be carried through the rec room. ~ A cold room in the basement provides for storage of produce. • Repairs
