The city stands to gain an increase in property tax revenue after council Tuesday night supported a request from Quinsam Coal to add 140 hectares to the city boundary. The property in question is owned by TimberWest but Quinsam Coal has signed a purchase agreement to buy the land. If the province approves the boundary extension, the property will be taxed at the city’s industrial tax rate and is expected to generate roughly $6,600 per year in property tax revenue. Ron Neufeld, the city’s general manager of operations, said Quinsam Coal has agreed to pay a more expensive, uncapped tax rate for its new property. The corporation pays a capped rate on its existing lands. That rate was introduced in 2004 through Letters Patent by the province to keep tax rates down after it approved a boundary extension to incorporate the original Quinsam Coal property into the City of Campbell River. “As part of this boundary extenContinued on Pg. 3

sion, a tax rate limit was set for the property,” Neufeld said. “Since the Quinsam Coal property was brought into the municipality, the City of Campbell River has reduced its major industrial tax rates significantly. Still, there continues to be a substantial difference between the capped rates and uncapped rates faced by these taxpayers.” Coun. Larry Samson questioned during Tuesday night’s council meeting whether there would be an opportunity for council to go back and revisit the Letters Patent and the subsequent
capped rate applied in 2004. “While they (Quinsam Coal) may not get all the services, such as sewer and water, the wear and tear on our roads, that we have provided fire protection up there at certain times – there is use of our city infrastructure and to see an artificially low cap like this, I find problematic,” Samson said. “I’m not sure if to go back now is the right answer but I think it’s something we should look at.” Council in the end, however, did approve the boundary extension, with Quinsam Coal paying an uncapped tax rate
of $42.52 per $1,000 on its newest property and a capped rate of $16.28 per $1,000 on its existing lands. According to the city, Quinsam Coal has achieved all of the necessary mining and environmental permits for expanded mining operations for the new property, which is adjacent to the Quinsam Coal site currently within the city limits. Quinsam Coal requested to have the property, which is currently under the jurisdiction of the Strathcona Regional District, moved into the city boundary in order to streamline oper-
Residents of a home in the 700 block of Alpine Road came home Dec. 12 just before 5 p.m. to find an unknown male inside their residence. The male fled and they called police. The Police service dog and his handler attended the scene and tracked the
male to a residence up the street. The track left that residence, through yards and out onto Dogwood Street where the male matching the description was tracked and arrested by officers in the area without incident. A 33 year-old Campbell River man was taken into custody and processed for break and enter.

ations and deal with only one local government – the City of Campbell River. The city will now be required to refer the boundar y extension proposal to the regional district to determine any impacts on existing services should the boundary extension be approved. The application will also go to First Nations. If the province approves the proposal, the city will launch an alternate approval process, which will allow the city to proceed with the boundary extension if no more than 10 per cent of voters sign an opposition form.

Serial driving offender A 42 year-old Campbell River woman has been taken off the roads yet again. On Friday, Dec. 12 at 10 a.m., Campbell River RCMP responded to a complaint of a possible impaired driver in Campbellton. A responding officer located the vehicle and attempted to stop it, however the driver sped off, breaking several traffic laws. For public safety reasons, the officer backed off the pursuit, but upon subsequent patrols for the vehicle, the officer located the vehicle stopped on Quinsam Road, where it then
turned down a dead-end gravel road. The driver then exited the vehicle and fled on foot into the bushes. The police service dog and his handler were in the area and attended and tracked the driver into the bushes where she was apprehended. The woman had an outstanding arrest warrant for a driving related offence and was a prohibited driver. Police are recommending Criminal Code and Motor Vehicle Act charges.
Break and enter to a residence on Taylor Way On Sunday Dec. 14
www.CampbellRiverMirror.com
at 7:30 a.m. Campbell River RCMP responded to a residential break and enter that had occurred overnight to a residence on Taylor Way. The suspect(s) slid open an unlocked window gaining entry to the residence where they stole the homeowner’s purse and a laptop computer. A search of the property revealed a “Winners” shopping bag containing makeup, and a gift set of tea and a mug believed to be stolen from a vehicle in the area as well as a key chain. Campbell River RCMP are wanting to speak with a Caucasian male in his 20s with a dark coloured beard wearing a dark hooded sweat shirt who was standing
POLICE BEAT in the victim’s driveway that morning. That male said he was looking for another residence and left. It is unknown if he has anything to do with the theft and police wish to speak with him.
Lock your vehicles The Campbell River RCMP are investigating several thefts from vehicles over the past weeks. At some point overnight on the evening
entered and items such as a purse, ID, binoculars and change were stolen. A wallet and unrelated identification were later recovered down on the Seawalk near Twillingate Road. Campbell River RCMP are reminding the public to lock their vehicles and be vigilant about calling police if you see or hear anything suspicious around your property. They say they have received surveillance video from a couple of residences where males were seen entering unlocked vehicles, rummaged through and stealing items. The males are described as Caucasian, late teens early 20s both in blue jeans and light coloured
of Dec. 13 or early morning of Dec. 14, a window of a Hummer parked at a residence on Taylor Way was smashed. A laptop was stolen from the vehicle. This theft may be related to the residential break and enter on the same street the same night. That same night, someone smashed the driver’s side window of a vehicle parked in the 800 block of 2nd Avenue and stole change out of the vehicle and a black bag from the glove box which was recovered one driveway over. The next night, several vehicles on Dahl Road, Wayne Road, Twillingtage Road, Montana Drive and Country Air Drive were

There’s no place like home – and there’s no better place to begin your charitable giving. This is the time of year when we think of family and all the good things we have. It’s also a time when we think of others who may not be so fortunate and how we can give back to the many worthy causes close to home and across the country through charitable acts and donations. Large or small, every philanthropic gift is important. Here’s how to make the most of your giving while minimizing taxes and other estate fees.
Establish a Donor Advised Fund As the donor, you receive an immediate tax receipt for all
Establish a Charitable Remainder Trust This is an irrevocable trust that holds assets such as cash or mutual funds. The interest and dividends are paid to you as taxable income and upon your death, the trust assets – the ‘remainder’ – go to the charity you designated. When the trust is established, you receive a donation receipt for the ‘remainder interest’ of the trust.
Establish a Private Foundation If you’re making a substantial donation, this option allows your name or your family’s name to be permanently associated with the causes you’ve chosen.
Donate a life insurance policy while you live Your charity will receive the total death benefit under the policy and you will enjoy certain tax credits. Donate publicly funded stocks or securities You will receive a tax receipt for their full value and will not pay tax on the capital gains in the donated securities. Establish a Charitable Life Annuity You will receive a lifetime income from the assets you donated for yourself, or for you and your spouse. Much of the annuity cash flow is tax-free and you will receive a charitable receipt for a portion of

An eLkFaLLsbC Christmas Part I By Jim Creighton l
Author, musician, impresario Jim Creighton is well known to people of the Campbell River area. His popular book, elkFaLLsbC Comic Imaginations of a Costal Town, is a regional classic depicting the characters and character of a fictitious coastal town. Creighton has revived his beloved town to present as a Christmas story. The Mirror is proud to publish An eLkFallsbC Christmas for your reading pleasure over the holidays. Part II will continue in our Boxing Day edition.
H
igh above the town of Elk Falls BC, the December stars shone down from their divine placement. That little island town, bordered on one side by Barnacle Passage and on the other by the surrounding woods, was a busy place. Eavestroughs were hung with coloured lights with care, trees were decorated. Excited children avoided their schoolwork to make lists. All of the town’s inhabitants, some colourful and some even more colourful, were each contributing to the motion, the collective momentum that carried them all toward that one special day. Down on the flats at the Totem Mall, a vagabond trio sat together on a chilly concrete bench. “Somethin’s goin’ on,” announced Charlie Morgan through his scruffy brown beard, and he looked about him to the store windows which were all decked out in fancy decorations. “Sure is,” offered Ace Coot. Charlie watched the people scurrying from the stores to their cars, carrying shiny packages and shopping bags full of stuff. “Yup,” said Izzy Debris, and he shifted his cold behind on the bench. “It’s that time of year.” “What time of year?” asked Charlie, sometimes unsure as to the particular ‘where and when’ he was actually inhabiting. His mind struggled. It was. It was. “Time for free turkey dinner!” said Izzy Debris, for it was Izzy who held the Island record for the number of free turkey dinners consumed within a twenty-four hour period. Three, it was. Four, if you counted the turkey sandwiches over at the Sally Ann Boxing Day lunch. “Guys. Guys,” said
Ace Coot, in an attempt at a proper perspective, “It’s more than just a free turkey dinner.” And in his moment of inspiration he held up both his arms to indicate something too large to hold, and even more than that. Unfortunately his vocabulary of phraseology was on a break, and so he was able to offer only a smile, and a succinct conclusion. “It’s Christmas!” he proclaimed. “Ahhh, yes,” confirmed Izzy, and he felt almost guilty for allowing his empty stomach to control his thoughts, but not guilty enough to stop it from savouring the memories of Christmas past. “Hey,” said Charlie. “Didja notice that they don’t actually say ‘Christmas’ any more? Didja notice that?” and he looked over at the store windows. “Happy Holidays!” announced one. “Tis the season!” said another. “Santa’s Here!” proclaimed the jolly fat man himself as he held up a giant drumstick in the front window of the Totem Grocery and Gas. “You’re right,” said Ace. “I did notice that. Hey, maybe they can’t say that word anymore,” he pondered. “Maybe it’s like, forbidden.” “Forbidden by who?” asked Charlie Morgan, and this caused a long moment of silence within which the three men were allowed to sit and cogitate. “Gotta be the cops,” concluded Ace. “Gotta be them,” he said. “Well,” said Izzy Debris. “In that case, Merry Christmas!” he bellowed, and feeling empowered, he shouted out across the parking lot of the Totem Mall. “Merry Christmas!” And so it was. It was Christmas in Elk Falls BC, and the stars of December shone brightly down. On everyone. Up in the many houses on the hill, in the many kitchens of the town, many mothers
were busy at their many stoves, producing many cakes and cookies, fruitcakes and shortbreads. Sarah Sculpin wiped her brow. She’d been practicing preparing a plum pudding for her dinner guests. One more week, she thought. She’d never made a plum pudding before, but she’d decided to “go traditional” this year, after reading an article in the Elk Falls Examiner. “Go Traditional” it had said. “Get back to the real meaning of Christmas with some yummy recipes from the past.” Just down the street lived the modern girl, Chantrelle Gill, recently married and proud new mother. “Wr going traditional,” she texted a friend. “Derek will b bck frm Fort Mac just n time. He gts 1 wk,” and she had to relax her thumbs for a moment, for she’d spent more time texting than actually being traditional. “Making m own gifts!” So far Chantrelle had
managed to bake some cookies with sparkley sugar toppings that looked fairly acceptable, but she was new at this and you had to admire her spunk. Christmas wasn’t cheap. And darn that internet site! She’d just bought a new knitted top online, a red and green one with a cute little reindeer prancing across it, and when it finally arrived it was too darn small and that cute little reindeer was missing an antler! Over on the next street, in a comfy little bungalow sat Inch Carter, the fisherman Inch Carter of the Brave Westerly, the “BeeDub” to the seafaring crowd. Inch was taking it easy after his heart attack, his brush with the grim reaper, his watershed moment when his lifetime of coffee drinking, cigarette smoking and the demands of the fishery had finally caught up with him. “Here’s some nice ones,” his wife said, as he handed Inch a few colourful Christmas
cards. “Make sure you send one to Doctor Palmar,” she offered. “If it wasn’t for him, you wouldn’t be here.” “Yeah, yeah,” said Inch, trying to look at the cards without taking his eyes off the Canucks vs. Sharks game on TV. “Yeah, sure,” he allowed, and in his mind he beheld the face of his surgeon, the very thoughtful Doctor Palmar. Inch thought about the expensive new postal rates, and how the cost of each stamp would contribute to a rising sum that would only compete with the rising costs of keeping the BeeDub afloat and operational. Dang! The Canucks just took another penalty! “And don’t forget your good friends at the DFO who helped you get off the boat and into the hospital that day,” his wife reminded him. “Yeah, yeah,” said Inch, and in his mind he saw the expedient Eddy and Jack in their DFO uniforms, and the
helicopter that had rescued him that fateful morning up at Naka Creek. Inch could feel his throat tightening. Damn if he’d waste two stamps and the price of two whole fancy Christmas cards on anyone from the DFO! “And of course there’s Danny and Bobby,” said his wife. “You can’t forget them.” “Yeah, yeah,” said Inch. Forget the two laziest deckhands on the west coast? As if! They’re probably at some card game right now, he figured, throwing their money away on Texas hold ’em, and he was supposed to bankroll these losers? His heart rate beginning to accelerate. Dang! The Sharks just scored on the power play! “Perhaps you could put a little something extra in their cards,” his wife suggested, but when she gave Inch her warm smile she could see that he was looking slightly distraught.
“Grrr...,” he growled. “I’ll give ‘em a little something extra!” and in his mind he could see himself marching into the card game, wherever the heck it was this week, and applying his size 12 romeo boot to their fat behinds. And maybe not just them neither, thought Inch. Maybe a lot of other fat behinds too, and the throttle on his heart jumped up a notch. Like maybe them fish farmers! And them importers, he thought, and now he was cresting the wave of his discontent. And all o’ them land-lovin’ idiots that don’t know nothin’ about fishing! And then Inch Carter watched himself run out onto the ice at Rogers Arena and deliver a swift kick to a Canucks’ defenceman.

Our View
‘Tis the season to be jolly...but safe Every year there are public servants – police officers, firefighters, emergency medical responders – who return home to their families on Christmas Day to hug them a little tighter because they’ve been reminded, We say: Don’t let yet again, about the fragility of life. That firefighter had to investigate the safety slip your cause of the blaze that someone didn’t mind this holiday escape. Maybe it was a Christmas tree with old lights that shorted out. season That ambulance attendant and police officer dealt with another motor vehicle incident involving someone who thought they were okay to drive because
they’d “only had a few.” Be careful this holiday season, please. Focus on what’s important – being with those you love and sharing the joy of being in their lives. But first make sure you have taken care to mitigate the possible dangers that are inherent this time of year. Don’t plug too much into that extension cord or power bar. Make sure you’ve got rock salt (or other ice-melt) and sand at your disposal in case walkways around your home get slippery. Have phone numbers handy for local cab companies and possible designated drivers in your life. If you’re on the road, watch for people out walking around
admiring the beauty of the season or going in and out of shopping centres or celebrations. If you’re one of those people, wear bright-coloured clothing so those drivers can see you. Buy a new screen for your fireplace, maybe. The merriment of the season can quickly turn to tragedy when people’s focus isn’t where it should be – on each other. Part of focusing on each other is making sure we’re all safe, so take some time to take care of your family and loved-ones’ safety so you can focus on just being with them. Let’s give those public servants we all respect a nice holiday season, too, by giving them have a day off from tragedy.

Climate talks end 2014 in disarray
Tom Fletcher B.C. Views
In case you missed the outcome of the latest United Nations climate change conference in Lima, Peru, it was another costly, embarrassing failure. This one is likely to be remembered mostly for a staggeringly stupid stunt by Greenpeace employees, who were threatened with prosecution for defacing the Nazca Lines, a world heritage site in the Peruvian desert. These vast 1,500-year-old petroglyphs, visible from space, are among the great mysteries of archaeology. “Time for a change!” blared huge yellow letters dragged across the sacred site by paid protesters trampling the delicate terrain. I’ll say it’s time for a change, starting with scratching Greenpeace off your Christmas card list. Earlier there was the spectacle of
Canada’s national media, reflexively denouncing Ottawa’s supposed inaction on greenhouse gases after U.S. President Barack Obama unveiled a surprise climate agreement with China in advance of Peru. “Over to you, Mr. Prime Minister,” chirped CBC anchor Wendy Mesley, joining other TV networks in falsely portraying the U.S. deal as a breakthrough. This non-binding gesture soon produced many cartoons, one of which shows Obama stripped to his underwear in a poker game with Chinese President Xi Jinping, who is surrounded by a pile of chips and an American flag. The U.S.-China announcement served as a preview of Peru, where developing countries would again refuse any sub-
stantive restrictions on their fuel use. China graciously agreed to continue ramping up its world-leading greenhouse gas emissions until 2030, while lame-duck Obama pretended he could commit the U.S. to further reductions. Between them, the U.S. and China account for about half of global humancaused carbon emissions. Due mostly to the surge from China and India, Canada’s share has fallen from two per cent to 1.5, which should help put all those “tar sands” protests into perspective. Days later, Environment Canada released its latest national emission statistics, an event ignored by most media. “Between 2005 and 2012, total Canadian GHG emissions decreased by 5.1 per cent, while the economy grew by 10.6 per cent over the same period,” the
report states. B.C. Environment Minister Mary Polak joined the throngs who jetted to Lima. There she met officials from California and other U.S. states to reannounce their modest efforts to put a price on carbon emissions. TV anchors and other wide-eyed innocents might have been left with the mistaken impression that the huge U.S. petroleum industry is cutting back, when in fact it has grown enormously thanks to shale oil and gas production. But amid the noise, there is serious evidence being put forward that our province is undergoing a climate shift with major consequences. And there are calls for action. I’ll discuss that next week. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

Smoking paraphernalia in Campbellton Just before 5 a.m. on Dec. 15, Campbell River RCMP responded to a break and enter that had just occurred at Scene Smokers Outlet at 1861 Island Highway. Three males had pried the back door open, entered the business and stolen several large glass “hookah” pipes before fleeing the scene. The males were dressed in disguise with what appeared to be bandanas over their mouths and at least two appear to be Caucasian. Police are looking to identify the males caught on the security tape who are described as: Suspect 1: Wearing a light grey hoodie and darker blue jeans and dark coloured shoes. Suspect 2: Wearing a black hoodie and navy blue Adidas track pants with three orange stripes down the outside legs. Suspect 3: Wearing a navy blue hoodie, blue jeans, wearing a “Starter” brand back pack looking to be black/grey with reflective silver accents and he was wearing black police type stretchy gloves that appear to be new.

Jane Pettifer, centre, receives a teddy bear from Storm players, from left, Colin Blake, Michael Olson and goalie Jesse Michel.
Campbell River Storm brighten up the holidays The Campbell River Storm hockey club delivered good cheer and teddy bears to patients at Campbell River Hospital on last Thursday. The junior hockey club collected hundreds of teddy bears through its annual Teddy Bear Toss at the Dec. 5 home game against the Oceanside Generals. Fans were encouraged to bring the bears and throw them
onto the ice after the first Storm goal. They didn’t have long to wait as defenceman Trent Johnson scored just 39 seconds into the game. The bears were clearly an inspiration as the Storm went on to score an amazing 16 more, for a 17-1 victory. The teddy bears were also delivered to Yucalta Lodge, Evergreen Seniors Home, and the Campbell River and North Island Transition Society.

Mayor Andy Adams lights the Shamash, befitting his role in the community as a public servant, during the Chabad Vancouver Island Menorah tour, which aims to bring the spirit of Chanukah to the general public during this festive time in the Jewish faith.
Light of Chanukah more than just candles
Lazboy 5x10
Mike Davies CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
When you are faced with darkness, the light from one candle, lit by one person, will brighten it. The light from many such candles, lit by many such people, can expel any darkness, no matter how dark. That was the message of Rabbi Meir Kaplan, Director of Chabad Vancouver Island, based in Victoria, as he and his family toured an eight-foot menorah through the communities of the region to share the message of the season from their faith to the general public. This was the fifth time Kaplan and the Menorah had been to Campbell River for this purpose. Kaplan offered Campbell River mayor Andy Adams the opportunity to light the centre candle – called the Shamash (meaning “helper” or “servant”) – as it is befitting his role as a servant of the community. “I’d like to thank Rabbi Kaplan for coming and sharing his message with our community,” Adams said, “which is that of dispelling the darkness around us with our good deeds, and that any one person can make a difference in this world.” After a prayer was sung, the three other candles were lit – representing it being the third day of Chanukah – and those in attendance were offered to stay and enjoy Sufganiyot (Israeli jelly donuts), dreidels, gelt (chocolate coins) and the sounds of Chanukah to celebrate togetherness, hope and caring for others.
