TERRACE - Provincial conservation officer Ryan Gordon with two grizzly cubs rescued in the Kitimat area several weeks ago. Conservation officers also rescued a moose calf. Conservation officer Gareth Scrivner of the North Coast Zone, which includes Terrace and Kitimat, said that officers were called out to a dead grizzly sow near Kitimat and successfully trapped her two cubs. The male and female cub were sent for rehabilitation to Northern Lights Wildlife Shelter in Smithers. “As we haven’t had any indication they have been eating garbage, they met the criteria for rehabilitation,” he said. The grizzly sow was found dead but it wasn’t clear how she died as an initial field post-mortem from the officers didn’t determine anything definite, he added. “I suspected she had been hit by traffic as it was off the Alcan road and that is very busy at shift change, but the guys didn’t find any signs of impact or broken bones,” said Scrivner. Officers also freed a moose calf that had become trapped in a wolf snare after tranquilizing it. “Somehow the moose ended up getting caught up in the snare even though it hadn’t been set, but was hanging up in a tree ready for use later in the trapping season,” said Scrivner, adding that wolf snares are legal for registered trappers to use on their trap line, which was the case here.

TERRACE - Northwest anglers, government officials, and friends and family of Tom Protheroe gathered to honour the well-known fisheries advocate as he received the 2014 National Recreational Fisheries Award Nov. 15. Calling Protheroe “an incredible advocate, an incredible individual, and someone I truly call a friend,” area director of Fisheries and Oceans Canada Mel Kotyk presented Protheroe with the award, in the form of a plaque, on behalf of federal fisheries minister Gail Shea. Kotyk highlighted Protheroe’s mentorship and teaching abilities, his ability to collaborate and negotiate, as well as his many accomplishments and positions held over his 40-plus year career, noting the honour “is not just because of what you’re done, it’s because of who you are.” In his acceptance speech, Protheroe noted that “to me, our having a national recreational fisheries awards process confirms indirectly that the federal government, through the minister of fisheries, recognizes the value of recreational angling – both monetarily and socially. “It also indirectly recognizes that recreational angling is the way in which Canadian public accesses our common property, fish resources,” he continued. Protheroe said the award is just as much for the people he’s worked with as it is his from his years of work.

It’s to be new mayors all the way around By Shaun Thomas and Cameron Orr THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
TERRACE - It was out with the incumbents and in with new choices as Kitimat and Prince Rupert voters went to the polls Nov. 15 to select mayors for themselves. And in Terrace, a former city councillor is now to be mayor for the next four years. With unofficial results for the local election in, Phil Germuth took the title of Kitimat mayor in a seeming landslide with 1,828 votes. Candidate Trish Parsons ended in second place with 530 votes, while long-serving Kitimat politician and incumbent Joanne Monaghan ended with 447. Joining Germuth on the council will be incumbents Edwin Empinado, Mario Feldhoff, Rob Goffinet and Mary Murphy, as well as new faces Claire Rattée and Larry Walker. “[I’m] definitely humbled by the amount of the votes,” said Ger-
muth on election night. Versus his total in the 2011 election for council, Germuth gained 534 votes in his race to the mayor’s seat. “It was great to see the support...the people came out in large numbers to vote this time and that’s great. I’m thrilled.” He’s looking ahead to a number of issues, the one paramount to others is the relationship the District of Kitimat has with the Haisla Nation Council. “The relationship building has got to be our number one thing. We really need to build our relationship with the Haisla and start working together on all initiatives here for industry and for recreation and all the other things,” he said. Germuth says he believes its his record on council that earned him the win on Saturday. “I’m hoping most people voted for me because they looked at what I did the past three years on council and they supported the way I’ve
stuck up for the people, and I also support development.” For school board trustees, Margaret Warcup took the most votes with 1,945, and will join incumbent Raymond Raj on the Coast Mountains School District board for Kitimat. Candidate Tim Carter ended very close with 1,249. Meanwhile in Prince Rupert, unofficial results of the 2014 Prince Rupert municipal election provide newcomer Lee Brain with a mayoral landslide. Brain collected 2,495 votes with incumbent Jack Mussallem second with 890 votes. Tony Briglio finished with 474 votes and Sheila Gordon-Payne finished with 411 votes, giving Brain 58 per cent of the popular vote. Brain said that margin of victory took him by surprise, but he said he is more than ready to take on the role of mayor. “I worked really hard, my team worked really hard and I think we ran a really high level campaign.
We wanted to show the community that this is the type of leadership our generation has and that we are prepared to take over leadership of our community,” he said, pointing as well to three new faces on council. Elected councillors include Blair Mirau, who received the most votes with 2,915, incumbent Barry Cunningham who received 2,897, Wade Niesh who receives 2,119, Gurvinder Randhawa who received 2,053, Joy Thorkelson with 2,044 votes and Nelson Kinney with 1,995. The results leave incumbents Anna Ashley and Gina Garon and challenger Ray Pedersen without a seat on council. Former city councillor Carol Leclerc is to be the next mayor of Terrace following a win over challenger and current city councillor Bruce Bidgood. Unofficial results gave Leclerc 1,456 votes compared to 969 for Bidgood. Leclerc, who will be sworn in next month as mayor for a four-year
term, will be the first woman to sit in the mayor’s chair in the city’s history. Speaking on election night, Leclerc said she was very happy. “I had no idea, absolutely no idea... the numbers were coming in and it was looking positive,” said Leclerc of her victory. Leclerc said her first priority would be to gather the new council together with city staffers to work on a strategic plan for the next four years. In the race for city council, the four current councillors who were running again were all returned to office. Lynne Christiansen topped the polls with 1,663 votes followed by Brian Downie with 1,546 votes and James Cordeiro with 1,356 votes. Newcomers Sean Bujtas and Michael Prevost followed with 1,325 and 1,245 votes respectively with the fourth incumbent, Stacey Tyers, claiming the final council seat with 1,229 votes.

Port Edward reelects MacDonald as mayor By Shaun Thomas
THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PORT EDWARD - Port Edward will have two new faces around the council table for the next four years, but Dave MacDonald will be returning as mayor. MacDonald received 191 votes compared to 64 ballots cast for Alice Kruta, giving MacDonald another term with 74.9 per cent of the popular vote. “I’m quite happy to be back in and I thank all the candidates who ran because it takes a lot out of your personal life,” said MacDonald, who will begin his third consecutive term as mayor of Port Edward next month. MacDonald will be leading a council that is a mix of incumbents and new councillors. Incumbent Dan Franzen received the most votes with 152, followed by former councillor James Brown with 143 votes, new-
comer Grant Moore with 140 votes and incumbent Christine MacKenzie with 122 votes. The results leave incumbent and longtime councillor Murray Kristoff and incumbent Knut Bjorndal without a seat after they received 116 votes and 108 votes respectively. Challengers Ed Day and Clayton Vanier received 73 votes and 51 votes respectively. “I want to thank Murray and Knut for their service as councillors for the District of Port Edward and I am looking forward to the first meeting with the new council,” said MacDonald. While there was no election in 2011, with all members of council being acclaimed to their positions, the 255 votes cast in this year’s election is up from 2008. At the end of that campaign a total of 232 residents cast their ballots, signifying an increase of 23 votes.

Michael Culbert, President, Pacific NorthWest LNG left, Nisga’a Lisims Government president Mitchell Stevens and Dean Patry, President, Prince Rupert Gas Transmission, sign a deal to provide benefits to the Nisga’a Nation from a planned pipeline across Nisga’a Lands.
Nisga’a sign pipeline deal TERRACE - The Nisga’a Lisims Government has signed a major deal with Prince Rupert Gas Transmission, the subsidiary of TransCanada Pipelines, which would build a 48-inch diameter pipeline from northeastern B.C. to a planned liquefied natural gas plant near Prince Rupert that would be built by Pacific NorthWest LNG, a subsidary of Petronas. The deal is to provide financial and other benefits from monies for the Nisga’a Lisims Government to jobs and business contract opportunities for Nisga’a citizens. The Nisga’a Lisims Government has also agreed to the removal of a linear corridor of land from the Nisga’a
Lava Bed Memorial Park to allow construction of the pipeline through that corridor. That corridor will be about 12 kilometres long and the pipeline will also cross approximately 85 kilometres of Nisga’a lands. At the same time, taxation legislation introduced into the provincial legislature will allow the Nisga’a to tax the pipeline and other resource developments on Nisga’a lands. But the prospect of taking land out of the memorial park hasn’t been met with unanimous approval among Nisga’a citizens. Two demonstrations opposing the move were held Nov. 11, one in Vancouver and the other in the Nass Valley.

Increase in passengers on Inside Passage By Shaun Thomas THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - Ridership aboard BC Ferries is down between Prince Rupert and Skidegate, but more people have sailed the Inside Passage in 2014 than in 2013. The number of passengers travelling between Prince Rupert and Skidegate dropped 15.96 per cent in October, falling from 2,550 last year to 2,143 this year,
while so far in 2014 ridership on the route is down 7.27 per cent, falling from 28,409 to 26,344. Accompanying the drop in passengers is a decline in vehicle traffic, which fell 14.05 per cent year-over-year and 5.6 per cent through the first 10 months of 2014 compared to the same time period in 2013. However, more people and vehicles have made the trip between Prince Rupert and Port Hardy this year than last. While the number of people riding the route in

Second speech language pathologist hired bcclassified.com By Martina Perry THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - A muchsought after second speech language pathologist is now working in School District 52 (SD52). Chris Lightfoot was hired as the district’s second speech language pathologist position on Nov. 10, joining Katherine Crossley who started back in September. Both are working to prevent, assess, diagnose, treat and help children overcome challenges in communication. “We’re very excited because it means we’re going to be able to give full service across all grades, which is something we have wanted very much for a long time,” Sandra Jones, superintendent of SD52, said. In July of 2013, both of the
student support services, said. Hikida said when there has been only one speech language pathologist working in schools, the concentration has been on early intervention services. “This means that we Linda Hikida provide the majority of services to the elementary schools with some consultative services to the middle and high school,” she district’s speech language patholsaid. ogists resigned, with only one of CUZ DuringDOG the TOYS 2014/15 budget the positions being filled in the process the board of education 2013/14 school year.

Kitimat’s first furniture swap proves a success for organizers By Cameron Orr THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
KITIMAT - The first attempt at a Kitimat furniture swap proved a success, says Kitimat Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Trish Parsons. The Chamber of Commerce helped gather muscle and vehicles for the event, which she said was a District of Kitimat-led initiative. And despite a drippy Saturday afternoon, their November 8 exchange date saw lots of people seeking out quality, pre-loved furniture. The group was even given use of Pyrotek’s cube van and Parsons said she thinks at least three full truck-loads were transported of people’s furniture. “It keeps stuff out of the landfill,” she said. “It’s not something you might use anymore but instead of haul-
ing it to the dump it’s still something of value to someone else.” The furniture swap also benefited from the support of the Tamitik Status of Women and the Child Development Centre. Being the first year, there was room for improvement for the next time an event is held. “It was really good. In hindsight it wasn’t the best location but it was more of a first time thing of finding out how it would work,” she said. They are also thinking it might make more sense holding a future event in the spring or summer rather than the cusp between fall and winter. Some furniture which didn’t find a new home is being stored, and the Tamitik Status of Women keeps an ongoing furniture list for their clients as well. Parsons said the furniture

swap was a great way to reach people, noting that people can give away furniture on Facebook pages but even those are limited in how many people will see the notice. “We’ll definitely do something again next year because it was really well received. We even delivered some stuff out to Kitamaat Village,” said Parsons. “It was definitely a success.”
I have enjoyed working with the past council team and expect great things from the new mayor and council in the next four years. Thanks also to the administration and staff for always being there with their dedicated help.

Tailings pond review highlights areas of concern By Josh Massey THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
TERRACE - A 50PAGE report done on the tailings pond design of the not-yet opened Red Chris gold and copper mine owned by Imperial Metals and located on Tahltan traditional territory outlines 22 recommendations that should be followed prior to the mine going into operation. The report is the work of Klohn Crippen Berger, a firm chosen by the Tahltan Central
Council but paid for by Imperial Metals. Its commissioning followed a blockade of the location by a Tahltan activist group in August over fears there would be a repeat of the failure of the tailings pond at the Mount Polley mine in the Cariboo which is also owned by Imperial. Both the central council and the provincial government have said the report and its conclusions are key to any final approvals being given to Imperial allowing it to open the
$570 million Red Chris mine which is southeast of Dease Lake. The report begins by saying that “any failure of the Red Chris impoundment will likely have a much more significant environmental impact than the Mount Polley failure.” At the time the inspections for the report were completed, the Red Chris tailings facility was not fully built, and the report says that “a major design issue for the tailing impoundment is the high permeability
of the foundation soils.” One of the technical recommendations is to “design a drainage blanket” for safe discharge and to perform tests during the early stages of operation to prove that the design features are working. Another recommendation is to raise the crest of the dam in one area. Most of the recommendations have to do with properly managing the tailings facility including monitoring procedures and protocol, response plan, imple-
Northwest mayors re-elected STEWART - While there were changes at the top in Prince Rupert, Kitimat and Terrace, things stayed the same in Stewart and in New Hazelton as a result of the Nov. 15 municipal election. In Stewart, Galina Durant was returned thanks to receiving 199 votes compared to 92 for her only challenger, Steve Howe. There were 15 people running for six council seats in Stewart and by the time the counting was finished, those six councillor are to be Ber-
nard Elliott, Gina McKay, Neal Rowe, Eike Riemann, Sylvia Goulet and Patricia Lynn. For the Kitimat-Stikine regional district Electoral Area B which is the Hazelton rural areas, Kispiox Valley and Moricetown thorough Cedarvale, Linda Pierre will be the representative. Shar McCory was elected as the Coast Mountain School District trustee for the Hazeltons. For the Kitimat-Stikine regional district area around Dease Lake
Social media awareness By Margaret Speirs
THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
TERRACE - It’s hard to keep up, or to know how far information can travel online or how much privacy you have, or don’t have. In an effort to keep the public and parents up to date on social media and its issues, the RCMP, Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine, Northwest Community College and others are presenting Social Media Awareness for Community and Parents with Jesse Miller of Mediated Reality, who talks to schools and communities and companies on topics of social media awareness, mobile communications, and online content evaluation. Miller challenges audiences to evaluate their online profiles and assess privacy and connectivity issues. He combines his diverse background in community policing volunteer management
and online behaviour analysis for his presentations. Social Media Awareness for Community and Parents presented by Jesse MiIler is at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 26 at the REM Lee Theatre and it is free. There will be a question and answer session to follow the presentation.
Tina Etzerza received 62 votes to defeat Edith Carrier who received 14 votes . Incumbent mayor Gail Lowry has been elected in New Hazelton and will join the six acclaimed councillors for another term. She defeated Robert Henwood. All of the New Hazelton councillors were returned by acclama-
tion – Janet Wilson, Ray Sturney, Braunwyn Henwood, George Burns, Peter Newbery and Mike Weeber. There was no election necessary for Old Hazelton with long time mayor Alice Maitland and councillors Wendy Blackstock, Shirley Muldon, Buddy Smith and Nick Marshall being returned to office by acclamation.

Kermodes shut down Rainmakers for title By Kevin Campbell
THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - They knew their opponents would be a major hurdle to clear, those Charles Hays Rainmakers. As Terrace’s Caledonia (CAL) senior girls’ volleyball Kermodes walked into the gymnasium on Saturday afternoon, the ’Makers prepared to face off against the AAA provincially-ranked seventh Kermodes – reputably the toughest team in the Northwest. And the Kermodes wasted little time getting down to business against the Rainmakers (CHSS), who fought valiantly, but fell in a best-of-five match CAL-CHSS: 2514, 25-12, 25-13 in the Northwest AAA senior girls zones championship. “I think we played really good. Way better than when we started the season off and we stuck together no matter what the score was, so it was good overall,” said CHSS team captain Tanveen Randhawa after the game. Randhawa and Suttira Johansen had some of the squad’s best service game on the day as Johansen’s jump serve found its mark more times than not. Jenny Huynh’s no quit on the ball showed on many occasions as
the tread marks on her jersey would attest and Ashtyn Andreesen and Morgan Weir provided steady leadership on the front row in the attack zone. The smaller Henzle Masocol played larger than her frame would suggest as her spikes gained the Rainmakers a few points here and there, but the Kermodes’ power and speed were extremely hard to stop.
Caledonia’s Brooklynn Fekete’s accuracy on her serve was lethal, as was Carly Davies and Cassidy Kitchen in the attack zone, whose tall statures and teamwork had the ‘Makers reeling as the match wore on. “I think it was their deep serves, their hard serves that caught us off guard,” said Randhawa. “We couldn’t get the pass up so
we couldn’t get hits over but yeah, they had really good hits and they covered well.” It was the defensive zone where the Kermodes preyed on the ‘Makers, as Charlotte Kobza and Tanveen Sadhra led the charge on the back end on the team’s rotating positional play. The awarded all-stars on Saturday went to Caledonia’s Kitchen,
Khali Pelletier and Preet Bath. For the Rainmakers, Johansen, Randhawa and Weir took the honours. Davies took tournament MVP, as it seemed there wasn’t a spike, block or pass she couldn’t pull off the entire day, and whose service game was imposing and deadly. Despite the loss, Randhawa said the group came such a long way from even before the school season started until zones. “We got really close together. Our passes got a lot better and our hits and serves improved,” she added. “You can sure tell [Terrace] puts a lot of time into practicing during the season and the fact that they have a club system that allows them to play all year is very evident,” said Rainmakers coach Jacqueline Jackson. “I am proud of the CHSS team for, as the cliche goes, ‘leaving it all on the court’,” she said. “Our cheer has been ‘SAMA’ all season which is, in a loose translation, Tagalog for unity or togetherness ... One of our goals this season was, no matter what, to stay together and work hard for each other. I think we proved that this season.” The Kermodes will now advance to provincials in Parksville.
Kitimat boxers prep for December battle of the northwest By Cameron Orr
THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
KITIMAT Even though it looks like a grudge match being settled to the right, the atmosphere in the Kitimat Boxing Club on November 13 was friendly and cordial (as cordial as boxers get, at least), even if it was to a back drop of fast punches. Kitimat boxing athletes were run through an in-house practice boxing tournament by coach Bill Franklin to get them warmed up to how a real tournament is held. Franklin said their practice run-through gave some lessons to his members, seven of which will be competing in a December 6 Kitimat-hosted tournament. It was an important orientation, given that only two of Kitimat’s club’s members have competed in a tournament in the past. Why is practicing a tournament so important
to boxing? It’s a mix of expectations and composure. “Everything is sometimes overwhelming,” he said, saying that with nerves he’s had boxers just freeze when it came time to compete. There’s also the protocols, such as having a medical done and getting weighed. Franklin even says the lesson on how to win or how to lose is important. (He had to remind some of his boxers not to leave the ring after their bout so the winner could be declared, a crucial part of any match.)
Even what the corners of the boxing ring are for were taught to the local boxers. There are two white, neutral corners, and two other corners which belong to either athlete. Franklin has been coaching the boxing club since its inception 21 years ago, and he has sent four athletes to the Canadian championships. When asked about what makes boxing special among other organized sports, Franklin says it’s a very individual sport which means it’s very effective at building a person’s self-con-

fidence. It’s also the toughest rated sport, he said, and even if the bouts themselves are only a few minutes long, it’s an exhausting few minutes that pushes the boxers to their physical limits. That being the case, safety is a key value of any boxing event, and practice tournaments like the one held last Thursday ultimately follow those lines, making sure boxers know how to keep safe while a crowd is shouting. The next tournament will feature boxers from Smithers, New Hazelton, and Vancouver.

McChesney receives bronze medal By Kevin Campbell THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - The Calgary Cascade Speed Meet welcomed participants from all over the province of B.C. and Alberta and Rupertite Sarah McChesney led the way for Thompson Rivers University (TRU), scoring a bronze medal and earning a personal best while at it. “[Having] best times this early in the season is something that doesn’t normally happen, but I’ll take it,” she said last week in an email from TRU. The famed swimmer grabbed thirdplace in the women’s 200 freestyle event with a personal best time of 2:09.38 in the finals. “Before the final, I knew I was going in fifth and I just kept telling myself ‘If you move up two spots, you get a medal’,” she explained. “I work well under pressure and I really like to be nervous before I race.” While she hung bronze around her soaked neck, McChesney also channeled the inner lucky Halloween swimmer inside her and wound up in number 13 in two categories. She finished 13th out of 25 competitors in the women’s 800 freestyle finals with a time of 9:48.78, and 13th out of 29 in the women’s 400 freestyle with 4:47.37. “My first 100 I felt great. As I flipped for my last 50, I couldn’t tell exactly where I was so I just went. I put my head down going into the flags and I looked up and saw the ‘3’ by my name. I was very excited,” she said. McChesney then finished in seventh in the 50 freestyle with a time of 28.13.

“The 50 and 100 final are a lot more fun to swim than the 200 because you can go as fast as you can the whole time. I wasn’t really happy with my times but I got the opportunity to swim it again so I couldn’t complain,” she said. The Cascade Speed Meet hosted 500 swimmers from 23 teams throughout
Western Canada including the University of Alberta, the University of Lethbridge and the University of Calgary. “This was an outstanding meet for our team at this particular phase in our training cycle,” McChesney’s team coach Brad Dalke told TRU Athletics after the meet. “We had 100 per
cent of the swims at the meet within three per cent of our swimmers’ lifetime best times.” McChesney and the Wolfpack will now look to this weekend where they’ll compete at the Canada West Universities Athletic Association championships in Lethbridge from Friday to Sunday.

Five workers hired for Rupert Kettle Campaign
PRINCE RUPERT Five people have been hired as kettle workers for the Prince Rupert Salvation Army’s 2014 Christmas Kettle Campaign in December. While in past years the Salvation Army relied on volunteers to host the kettles, Capt. Gary Sheils said there hasn’t been enough people stepping forward in recent years. “The last few years before 2013 we had a really difficult time getting volunteers to man the kettles,” he said, noting there were only enough volunteers to cover half of the collection shifts in 2012. “I decided last year that we would hire enough kettle workers to have three kettles out on the days we wanted them to be.” Last year, $20,000 was collected during Prince Rupert’s campaign, along with $140,000 through the organization’s annual holiday mail operation. “Christmas costs us about $100,000,” Sheils explained. “Everything we raise in December goes to our work for the full year,” he added, noting the Prince Rupert Salvation Army requires approximately $300,000 for its
Gravel pit gets green light
By Shaun Thomas
THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PORT EDWARD - The District of Port Edward has granted a temporary permit to a company looking to develop a gravel pit, but the permit is not without restrictions. Council voted to approve the rezoning of a parcel of land on the southeast side of Highway 16 near Prudhomme Lake from Tourist Commercial to Light Industrial for use in gravel extraction and a potential laydown and storage area in the years ahead. But given the proximity of the site to the Prudhomme Lake provincial campground, the permit only allows for drilling, blasting and crushing to take place between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday to Friday between May 10 and Sept. 20. As well, the company will be required to construct a berm next to the highway to both limit the amount of noise from operations and visual impact. According to chief administrative officer Ron Bedard, there is an opportunity for the permit to be extended for longer-term use. “This permit is for a three year period, but the company could come in and apply for another three years. That would be up to the future council to decide,” he said, noting the length of use could also be shortened. “If after two years the owner doesn’t want the permit, he could come in and ask for it to be rezoned, at which point the conditions would be taken off of the title.”

While the Salvation Army will have to pay the five individuals it hired for this year’s campaign with its own resources, Sheils said it’s important to have people out with the kettles to help boost the Salvation Army’s visibility and to raise awareness. In Prince Rupert, the Christmas Kettle Campaign will officially kick off during the Winterfest Festival of Lights on the evening of Dec. 5. Kettle hosts will be collecting outside businesses on 15 days in December.

Borrowed money helps keep project prep work going From Page 16 “We arranged the [$50 million] bridge loan so that we can continue with detailed engineering and pre-construction work while we finalize the complete debt and equity package for the project,” said company official Graham du Prez. The company is also working on arranging other financing toward its overall goal of raising equity and taking on debt. The list includes taking on a partner, selling stock and selling the silver that is also present in its ore body. The company has already lined up sales agreements with key customers. Since receiving final environmental approvals this year and after signing a benefits deal with the Nisga’a Lisims Government, Avanti began building a road to its site made up of a partnership of
a Terrace company and one from the Nass Valley and by making preparations to expand its exploration camp into one to accommodate 150 people. “Construction on the access road to Kitsault’s proposed plant site is now complete, and the area surrounding the proposed plant site is now accessible for the transportation of equipment,” said the company in a release this month. Its intention is to be ready to begin full-on construction for a two-year period as soon as weather permits next spring. A separate project, begun in October, has a contractor hired by Avanti practically rebuilding a provincial government bridge that crosses the Nass River so that heavy equipment can be safely trucked into Kitsault. A company called AMEC

Americas is doing the engineering work on the project and is adding 10 engineers to an existing force of 60 engineers. Avanti itself has hired 11 managers since the summer as well as its pre-construction program takes shape leading to full on work. “Avanti continues to actively recruit to build out its owner’s team and will be opening a project office in Terrace, British Columbia, which will act as the center of operations for recruiting efforts at the project,” a company release this month stated. And while the company continues work on the ground, it is also considering a name change. Company shareholders are to decide at a meeting later this month if the company name should be changed to Alloycorp Mining Inc. to better reflect its goal of making steel alloy metals.

“Soft Lips� Thinking of you, Thinking of me, Thinking of me, Thinking of you. Lost in eachothers eyes, it begins. Two broken hearts, drawn to eachother.

Embraced in eachothers arms, if only, locked in time.- Poetry by Steven Tates

William “Bill� Carl O’Neill, 68, of Kitimat, BC passed away peacefully, surrounded by his family on October 25, 2014. He was a loving husband, devoted father, grandfather “Poppa�, and friend. Bill was born on July 21, 1946 and spent his early years at Onanole, Manitoba near Riding Mountain National Park studying, acting, playing hockey and football as well as working at Sportsman Park. Bill married the love of his life, Carolyn, on August 29, 1970 and graduated from Brandon University with a Bachelor of Arts degree majoring in English and Sociology a few years later. Having worked at the Alcan Aluminum Smelter, first as a summer student, then as an employee, as well as a Kitimat volunteer firefighter in the later 1960s, Bill and Carolyn relocated to Kitimat in 1973 where he began as a welder at Alcan. They started their family in 1974 and Bill was promoted to foreman, then general foreman of maintenance and central shops with a few years in the labour relations department. He remained there until his retirement in 2001, after 30 years of service. Bill enjoyed hunting and scuba diving in his early years, and golfing, skiing, visiting family, traveling, reading and especially time with his grandsons.
“There is much joy in seeing, experiencing and sharing things through the eyes of a child.�
He could often be found at their cabin on Hudson Bay Mountain in Smithers that he built, along with much help from family and friends. Certainly a favourite and happy “home� of which he was so proud. Bill was a gentle, kind, quiet and giving man, always willing to offer a hand when needed. Education was most important to him and he exemplified a high standard work ethic, with honesty, fairness and integrity. The times he laughed, gave advice or simply listened will echo in the memories and lives of those he touched. Bill is survived and lovingly remembered by his wife Carolyn of 44 years, son David, daughter Shannon (Scott), his beloved and precious grandsons Kaiden and Nolan, brothers Glenn (Donna) O’Neill, George (Theresa) O’Neill and sisters Pamela (Jim) Smith and Florence (Rob) Sauve, brother and sister in-law Dwayne and Irene Drinkwater, many nieces and nephews, extended family and one auntie, Marion Johnson. He was predeceased by his parents Albert and Christine O’Neill. The family extend a special thank you to all the staff at Vancouver and Kitimat General Hospitals, paramedics, air ambulance and Dr. B. Van Wyk for their professionalism and compassionate and loving care. Also, sincerest thanks to Rev. Dr. Dona Lethbridge and all our dear friends and family near and far. We are so blessed and very grateful for your support, kindness and generosity of heartwarming cards, letters, phone calls, visits, flowers and food during this difficult journey. A Celebration of Life was held at the Hirsch Creek Golf and Winter Club November 2, 2014. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society or the Kitimat General Hospital Auxiliary.
“So many shared, wonderful and precious memories... You will forever be in our hearts.�

Gert Crockart
(Gertrude Havergal) December 10, 1920 to November 4, 2014 Gert passed away peacefully and leaves behind her family, her Kitimat First United Church, and many friends. Especially mourning her passing is her beloved daughter, Joanne Ong, granddaughter Kim (Paul) Amado and grandchildren Madison, Dana and Quinn, and grandson Richard (Eileen) and grandchildren Sierra, Blaine and Zoey. Gert was predeceased by her husband Peter, son Peter and his wife Heather, and her grandson Stephen Ong. Gert’s life centred on music, from her young days in Qu’Appelle, Saskatchewan, when her whole family produced and performed in a weekly gospel radio program. In Ocean Falls and then in Kitimat, Gert played the organ in the United Churches. With her husband on the piano, she played organ in other churches and for many weddings and funerals. She was a tireless leader of both adult and award-winning children’s choirs. Over many years, a multitude of children were taught piano by Gert. Even in her later years, Gert still drove to Mountainview Multi-level Care each Thursday to lead sing-alongs. The family is deeply grateful to the staff of Mountainview for their thoughtful and generous care of Gert during her residence there in her last years. A service of memory and celebration will be held at Kitimat First United Church on Saturday, November 22, 2014, at 2 pm. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Kitimat First United Church.
