Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett helps celebrate Taseke Mines Ltd.’s Gibraltar Mine grand opening of its $325 million expansion in the fall of 2013. On Monday the company announced a seven per cent reduction in its Gibraltar Mine labour force due to struggling copper prices.

Gibraltar meets falling prices with layoffs Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Falling copper prices have led to just under 50 layoffs of management and unionized employees plus another 20 contractor positions at Gibraltar Mine this week. The union representing around 350 workers at the mine said it is obviously disappointed with the layoffs of 26 positions, but not

surprised given the present markets. “We’d like to see no layoffs, but many mines are looking at the situation right now and adjusting accordingly,” said Scott Doherty, assistant to the president for Unifor. Taseko Mines Ltd. vice president of corporate affairs Brian Battison confirmed layoff notices went out Monday morning and account for about a seven per

cent reduction in the workforce. Battison said the layoffs are a direct result of falling copper prices which are at a five-and-ahalf year low. “They’ve been declining pretty steadily since 2011,” Battison told the Tribune. “We’ve been watching the economics really closely and are reducing expenditures in all areas of our operations.” Doherty said the union will be meeting with the company next

week to make sure it can offset any impacts to members, as opposed to layoffs. “If there are people who are retiring or can go early then junior people can stay,” Doherty said, adding he hadn’t heard that any of the layoff positions were presently vacant. Doherty said within the collective agreement, people who are laid off don’t lose their jobs and still have recall rights.

City restructures cutting eight positions Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Eight positions have been eliminated by the City of Williams Lake in hopes of saving $4 million during the next five years. The newly-elected city council is attempting to find savings by restructuring, Mayor Walt Cobb said. “We are trying to achieve a zero per cent tax increase and the job cuts will help us achieve that.” Four positions are being removed from management and four from the union positions. Cobb told the Tribune the four management positions include managers of economic development, social development, information and technology, and transportation and building.

The four union positions are protective services receptionist, communications coordinator, bylaw enforcement officer and a planner. International Union of Operating Engineers Local 882 business manager Adrian David said employers are entitled to reorganize their workplace, however, he had a problem with the fact there was no prior consultation about the cuts in Williams Lake. “A few hours prior to the layoffs we were notified,” David said. “We want to work with the city, but there are many challenges with this current process the city has embarked upon.” There are provisions within the collective agreement for employees who are laid off, however, Da-

vid said the union is working with affected employees to try and find them positions within the city of Williams Lake jurisdiction if possible. One of the eight positions is being removed through attrition because the transportation and building manager moved away, Cobb said, adding the workload will be shared by existing staff. At this stage there are no further recommendations for restructuring with the exception of re-instating the city’s Economic Development Corporation, he said. With the exception of one councillor, the majority of council approved the job cuts during an in-camera meeting held Tuesday, Jan. 13, Cobb confirmed. Initially council

In an attempt to find savings, the newly-elected city council confirmed last Friday it had removed eight positions in hopes of saving $4 million during the next five years. gave the human resources manager a list of positions it thought the city could do with-

out. “We asked the manager to report back and tell us if it could

be done,” Cobb said. “When it came to talking and actual evaluation that was done by

human resources. We don’t do that, we’re just the policy makers.”

Budget meeting to focus Clerk escapes injury after confrontation on reserves and surpluses Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer City council’s public budget meetings are going well, the city’s finance committee chair Scott Nelson said Tuesday. The committee has been hosting meetings every Thursday at city hall where people can ask questions. “We’ve had good and positive recommendations flowing out from the public,” Nelson said. The upcoming meeting on Thursday, Jan. 22, will delve into reserves and surpluses. “It will be a great review of how they work, what they are used for,

Coun. Scott Nelson how they are allocated and how they impact our budgets,” said Nelson, adding two more meetings are scheduled to go over public works, general government and community services. Recently the city

launched an OpenGov system on its website that gives the public detailed financial information about the city’s operations. “It’s great because people have the same information that we’re working with,” Nelson said. Once the public meetings are completed, the committee will work on making recommendations to council. Nelson anticipates that will be done within four to five weeks. The meetings start at 6 p.m. and last about one hour, he said. Joining him on the committee are councillors Jason Ryll and Craig Smith.

A beer and wine store clerk escaped injury after an altercation with two thieves on Monday in Williams Lake, the RCMP said. On Jan. 19 at 7:49 p.m. the police responded to a panic alarm coming from the Overlander Beer and Wine store. “The store clerk reported that two

First Nations males entered the store and ran out of the store with a case of beer,” Sgt. Rick Lebeuf said. The clerk gave chase and confronted the two males in the parking lot, where a physical confrontation ensued between the clerk and the two suspects. “One of the sus-

pects smashed a beer bottle on the ground and began lunging at the clerk with the broken bottle,” Lebeuf continued. “Luckily the clerk was not injured in this altercation.” Both males fled from the area on foot, but were later apprehended by officers. Both males are 28

years old, from the Williams Lake area and known to police. One male was released from custody and will be appearing in Williams Lake Provincial Court Feb. 11, 2015. The other male remains in police custody and was to appear before a Provincial Court Judge Jan. 20, 2015.

Police arrest man after caught crawling out of building window Officers located a suspicious vehicle in the industrial area of Williams Lake on Monday, Jan. 19 just before noon. Footprints were not-

ed leaving the vehicle and going into an abandoned building. When officers arrived they observed a male crawling out of a window on the northeast

side of the building. After police apprehended him, the male was arrested for break and enter, possession of stolen property and possession of a con-

trolled substance. The 52-year-old male is not from the Williams Lake area. He will appear in Williams Lake Provincial Court on Jan. 21.

Members of the Esketemc First Nation, located south east of Williams Lake, took part in the challenging tradition of moving the community’s herd of horses to winter pasture. Bill Chelsea and Charlie Johnson galloped to stay ahead of the 100plus herd while brothers Tommy and Dougie Johnson trailed behind Monday afternoon. The men were taking the horses down to Wycotte Flats by following the Dog Creek Road from the Esketemc First Nation home-base at Alkali Lake for several miles before heading offroad at the base of the Mountain House Prairie. At Mountain House Prairie, the herd heads straight down the hill to the lower river bench land pasture of Wycotte Flats. It is there that the herd will winter out on the grasslands. The horse drive is an annual tradition in danger of disappearing as it gets more difficult each time to find horsemen capable of the drive.

B.C.’s golden ticket: the Winter Games

Not-so-sunny days

appy days? The sun shone on Saturday, and it’s peeked out a bit Monday as I write this. Haven’t seen many sunny days so far this year and gray days are depressing. There hasn’t been much joy in New Year’s news either. According to reports from many scientific groups such as NASA, 2014 was the hottest year since records have been kept in 1880, with the 10 warmest years recorded since 2000. Climate scientists have been French trumpeting the Connection alarm over climate Diana French change for years but politicians seem more interested in finding excuses to go to war. A recent report prepared for the World Economic Forum being held in Davos, Switzerland, puts the risk of a major conflict between states as the top threat to world stability in the next 10 years. This annual report, which includes the views of 900 experts, ranks extreme weather events and climate change as the second risk, followed by “failure of national governance systems, state collapse and high unemployment.” (Canada has lost more than 200,000 jobs since October.) The experts cite water crises as a worldwide issue with disease, pandemics, weapons of mass destruction and failure of climate change adaptation close behind. The WEF is an international institution committed to improving the state of the world through public-private co-operation. This doomy news is somewhat removed from those of us in the Cariboo, although we are have seen wonky weather and job loss (Gibraltar and city hall) and who knows what the future will bring. But, we’ve had those sunny days, and some fun things are planned for Williams Lake, like the Winter Carnival. It’s been a long time since we got together to celebrate winter. Something else that lifted my spirits was seeing the Studio Theatre Society’s performance of Die Theatrically. Diana French is a freelance columnist for the Tribune. She is a former Tribune editor, retired teacher, historian, and book author. Editor’s note: In the Jan. 14 edition of French Connection we misrepresented veterans affairs minister Mr. O’Toole. He’s a veteran, not a war veteran, as printed.

Our Viewpoint

Economy delivers one, two punch Just three weeks into the New Year and several families in our area have received some bad news on the work front. On Friday Mayor Walt Cobb announced restructuring plans that will cost eight fulltime positions at city hall. The layoffs include four management positions and four union positions. Though the decision doesn’t come as a total shock –– particularly since city council has taken on a new political stripe after the election –– it is never easy to see colleagues and friends facing the challenge of looking for new employment and the possibility of moving. If that news wasn’t bad enough, Gibraltar Mine followed closely behind Monday announcing the layoffs of 45 union and salaried employees as well as that of another 20 contractors. This news also doesn’t come as a complete surprise as copper prices have reached a five-year low.

Mines are always at the mercy of the global commodity prices, ebbing and flowing their production accordingly. In this case, Gibraltar will continue that dance, however, we can be rest assured that just two years ago the company made a $325-million commitment to the local mine with an upgrade and expansion expected to give another 25 years of life to the development. Employees in Alberta’s oil and gas industry have also taken a hit coming into 2015 with falling gas prices, and that will affect our B.C. communities and our country as a whole through employment and also Federal tax revenue. Job loss is not only difficult to the companies, employees and governments affected. It hurts the entire community and we will all feel the brunt of these most recent challenges. - Williams Lake Tribune

Non-Smoking Week National

January 18th to 24th, 2015

Smoking and cancer: the facts The single most important thing you can do to reduce your risk of cancer is to live smoke-free. Smoking and lung cancer Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in Canada. It is estimated that smoking is related to more

than 85% of lung cancer cases in Canada. Smokers are about 20 times more likely to develop lung cancer than non-smokers. The longer a person smokes and the more cigarettes smoked each day, the more the risk increases. Smokers are also at a higher

risk if they’re exposed to radon or certain chemicals in their home or workplace and continue to smoke. Most forms of lung cancer develop gradually and do not produce any symptoms until the disease is advanced. This makes it hard to find lung cancer early enough for

a cure. Non-smokers and lung cancer Each year, more than 250 Canadians die from lung cancer as a result of longterm exposure to the tobacco smoked by other people (second-hand smoke) at home, at work and when they’re out

and about. Some lung cancers may also be due to exposure to radon gas, diesel exhaust and other chemicals in outdoor air pollution, asbestos and certain chemicals in the workplace. Smoking and other cancers Smoking can also increase

the risk of developing the following types of cancer: bladder, cervix, colon and rectum, esophagus, kidney, larynx, mouth and throat, pancreas, stomach, nasal cavity, liver, acute myelogenous leukemia and some types of ovarian tumours.

Any tobacco use can hurt your body Although cigarettes are the most common form of tobacco used in Canada, other forms of tobacco are available. Because you may not recognize them as tobacco, you and your family may not know that they’re also harmful to your body. Smokeless (or spit) tobacco Smokeless tobacco has over 3,000 chemicals, including 28 that can cause cancer. Using smokeless tobacco can lead to: oral cancer (cancer of the mouth – lip, tongue and cheek, floor and roof of the mouth) esophageal cancer pancreatic cancer Smokeless tobacco comes in 2 forms: Chewing tobacco is a leafy tobacco sold in pouches. Snuff is finely ground tobacco that is either moist or dry. Moist snuff is taken orally. It’s rolled in a pellet and placed between your gums and cheek inside your mouth. Dry snuff is sniffed through the nose. Smokeless tobacco is highly addictive because it contains nicotine.

Rolled tobacco Although some people think cigar smoking is less harmful to their health than smoking cigarettes, cigars and cigarillos are simply rolls of tobacco wrapped in tobacco leaf paper. They come in different sizes but usually contain several times as much tobacco as cigarettes do. Cigars Smoking cigars increases your risk of cancer of the mouth, throat, larynx, lung, esophagus and pancreas. And the second-hand smoke from cigars increases health risks to non-smokers too. Other types of rolled tobacco (such as bidis and kreteks) are flavoured or mixed with other things. Although the flavouring may disguise the tobacco taste, it doesn’t make them less harmful. Bidis Popular in Indian and other Southeast Asian cultures, bidis are small cigarette-like products that are usually flavoured. Studies have linked bidi smoking with an increased risk of developing oral, lung, stomach and esophageal cancer. Kreteks Kreteks are clove-flavoured

cigarettes. Kreteks have not been studied as much as regular cigarettes – but similar to cigarette smoking, kretek smoking has been shown to damage the lungs. Pipes Some people believe that using a pipe to smoke tobacco filters the smoke and makes it less harmful. But pipe tobacco contains many of the same chemicals as cigarette smoke. And like smoking cigarettes, it’s addictive. Smoking a pipe may increase the risk of developing:

oral cancer throat cancer lung cancer esophageal cancer colorectal cancer pancreatic cancer Pipe smokers are also at a higher risk for cancer of the lip if they suck on the pipe stem when not smoking. Smoking a pipe can also hurt others around you. The second-hand smoke is equal to the smoke from several cigarettes due to the amount of tobacco usually put into a pipe.

Waterpipes In recent years, more young adults have been using water pipes (also known as hookahs). In a water pipe, tobacco is heated and the smoke is passed through water before it’s inhaled through a tube. The water doesn’t really reduce the cancer-causing substances in the smoke. And users of water pipes usually inhale larger amounts of smoke than cigarette smokers do. Smoking a water pipe can be addictive and may increase your risk of cancer. What about marijuana? Smoking substances like recreational marijuana may harm your health as well because smoking marijuana releases tar into the lungs in the same way that smoking tobacco does. Marijuana is a mixture of dried, shredded leaves, stems, seeds and flowers of the hemp plant (Cannabis sativa). Other forms of cannabis include sinsemilla, hashish and cannabis oil. All forms contain THC (delta-9tetrahydrocannabinol), which is the main active ingredient in marijuana.

Fact: Of the 5.7 million Canadian Smokers, 5% are between the age of 12-19.

Marijuana and cancer Some evidence suggests longterm use of marijuana can lead to cancers of the head, neck, lung and throat. However, the quality of this research is not as strong or as comprehensive as the evidence on tobacco and cancer. The fact that many people who smoke marijuana also smoke tobacco or mix the marijuana with tobacco makes it hard to be sure of the strength of the association. Also, because there is no standard amount of THC (the main active ingredient in marijuana) in every marijuana cigarette, it is difficult to compare results across different studies. People who smoke marijuana tend to inhale more smoke per puff and hold it in their lungs for as much as 4 times longer than people who smoke tobacco cigarettes. This means that smoking 2 to 3 marijuana cigarettes per day can expose you to roughly the same amount of smoke as 20 tobacco cigarettes. Marijuana users and people exposed to second-hand marijuana smoke may have many of the same health problems as people exposed to cigarette smoke, including an increased risk of cancer.

BUSINESS

Modest home price gains predicted in B.C. Jeff Nagel Black Press Housing prices in B.C. should rise modestly this year after stronger gains in 2014, according to a new forecast by Central 1 Credit Union. The association of B.C. credit unions predicts a 2.5 per cent increase in resale home prices in 2015 and similar increases of between two and three per cent out as far as 2018. Bryan Yu, senior economist with Central 1, sees continued strength in urban real estate markets. “I think sky-high prices in Greater Vancouver have more room to grow with little risk of a significant downturn,” Yu said. One trend he expects to continue is the diver-

gence in price growth between detached houses and multi-family units. “While condo markets have been soft, with median home values flat since 2010, detached

values have surged,” Yu said. “Single-family housing is increasingly a luxury good detached from income drivers.” His report predicts home prices in Metro Vancouver will continue

to be underpinned by the scarcity of developable land, the growing population and international demand. It says the collapse in the price of oil will be generally positive

for real estate markets, because it leaves more discretionary money in consumers’ pockets. But crude’s plunge is painful for Albertans and will restrain their demand for B.C. recreational property in the Interior and Vancouver Island. The lower Canadian dollar, however, has made real estate here more affordable relative to the rising prices of U.S. homes, the report notes. Central 1 expects no increase in interest rates until early 2016 but expects five-year rates will average 6.5 per cent in 2018. “Record-low mortgage rates will not last indefinitely, but will remain low enough to underpin housing market demand this year and next.”

Mayor and CRD chair attend BC Natural Resources Forum Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Mayor Walt Cobb and CRD Chair Al Richmond are in Prince George attending the Premier’s BC

Cobb told council as it approved his travel at last week’s council meeting. The forum, now in its 12th year, provides delegates with an opportunity to talk about

the future of B.C’s natural resource industries. “It will bring together the resource sector, service and supply businesses, government, First Nations,

and non-profit initiatives in a discussion on how to further grow natural resource industries that respect, sustain, and improve our communities,” Premier Christy Clark said.

Family Astronomy Evening

Photo submitted

Community Literacy Co-ordinator Carla Bullinger gives away books to Melissa and Rachel Elefson in celebration of National Child Day last year. Cariboo Chilcotin Partners for Literacy and the Williams Lake Tribune are teaming up to publish a series of articles on literacy programs available in our community as we approach Family Literacy Week Jan. 25 to 31.

CCPL helps make literacy fun Cariboo Chilcotin Partners for Literacy (CCPL) is encouraging parents and caregivers to find fun ways to learn with their children as we approach Family Literacy Week, Jan. 25-31. Even 15 minutes a day can drastically benefit the literacy skills of both parent and child. During Family Literacy Week, CCPL is reaching out to families across the province to encourage them to take part in informal family learning activities to improve their literacy and learning skills. “Literacy is not just about reading and writing, and it is not only learned in the classroom,” says Carla Bullinger of CCPL. “Families can build literacy skills by playing games together, making a shopping list, storytelling, searching the Internet, or going for a nature walk.” Recent studies show that engaging in informal family learning in the home and the community has a direct impact on children, parents, and society as a whole. “Parents and caregivers who participate in informal family

learning directly and positively affect the language and literacy development of their children,” says Bullinger. “When families practice literacy together, we all benefit because literacy development of the family impacts every area of our lives: healthcare, crime rates, employment, economic status, civic engagement and overall life chances.” The findings are overwhelming. When children get an early start with literacy in the home, they are better prepared to enter school; they do better on reading achievement tests; they are more likely to pursue higher education; they find higher-paying jobs; they lead healthier lives; and they are more likely to vote, volunteer and give back to their community. Family activities you can do in the home and community to practice and promote literacy: •Read together • Make a shopping list • Search the internet • Play Games • Build Puzzles • Sing Songs

• Paint together • Nature Walk • Write cards • Look for signs • Draw together • Dance together “The benefits of practicing family literacy go beyond the child,” says Bullinger. “When parents take an active role in their child’s literacy development, they build stronger bonds and they are more likely to take an active role in their children’s learning — even 15 minutes of reading a day can dramatically

improve both child and parent’s literacy skills.” Family Literacy Week in Williams Lake is culminating in the annual Family Fest. This free and fun family event takes place on Sunday, Feb. 1 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Gibraltar Room. For more information contact Carla Bullinger at carla@caribooliteracy.com. See next week’s Tribune for our annual Reach a Reader edition, for more information on literacy programs in our community .

Celebrating all things literacy Cariboo Chilcotin Partners for Literacy loves to welcome in the new year with the things we love best – family literacy, financial literacy, workplace literacy, health literacy, numeracy, plain old literacy – you get the picture. January is the time when we focus on raising awareness of the importance of literacy: at home; at work; at school; at play. For

the next couple of weeks you can look forward to interesting articles and fun activities as we celebrate all things literacy. And the community has some special events planned for Family Literacy Week, January 25-31. So stay tuned. We’ll keep you posted. Carla Bullinger is the Community Literacy Co-ordinator with the CCPL.

Scout Island Nature House is hosting an all-ages astronomy evening, Saturday, Jan. 23 from 6 to 8 p.m. with local community astronomers Steve and Lynn Capling. There will be plenty of stellar stuff to gander at with the naked eye, binoculars or with a telescope. Bring warm clothes and gloves, binoculars, although there will be some available to borrow, lawn chairs or something to lay down on. A very large telescope is provided but you are welcome to bring along your own. More telescopes make this event even better! Please do not bring a flashlight or headlamp. If the weather outside is inappropriate for stargazing, the event will be moved indoors with games and activities. Call Scout Island Nature House if you have questions about this special event call 250.398.8532 or e-mail themaryforbes@ gmail.com. No registration is required.

Effective February 10, 2015, I, Don Brown of Don Brown & Son Plumbing & Heating Inc. am retiring from the company. At this time I would like to thank the people of Williams Lake and surrounding areas including the Chilcotin for their years of support. It has been a pleasure working for you. I moved to Williams Lake in 1984 and worked for Burgess Plumbing & Heating until the fall of 1997. I left Burgess to start my own company in 1997 and added my son, Jim, as a partner to the business in 1999.

He always does such an incredible job and we are happy to have adopted him into our McLeese Lake family. With Terry’s help, more than $2,000 was raised with the funds going to renovations of the hall this spring and summer. A very big thank you to all the volunteers who helped set up and clean up and thanks to the several businesses and residents who donated auction items. For that we are truly grateful. Our annual supper and auction would not be the success it is without the generosity of the companies who donate items and the

community members who bid on them. The annual Winter Fun Day is being held on Saturday, Feb. 14 at the McLeese Lake Hall. There will be food served, snowmobile runs, an ice fishing derby for coarse fish for kids age 12 and under and lots of visiting with fellow community members. Come out and be a part of this fun day. On Wednesday, March 4, we are pleased to welcome Saskia and Darrel Delaronde to our community, who have formed the musical group The Great Plains. This concert will feature three different styles of music which includes blue grass, country and folk. It sounds like it will be a great night of entertainment. Please watch the local venues for posters which will provide more information. Also, mark your calendars for Wednesday, March 18 to attend the Annual General Meeting of the McLeese Lake Recreation Society at the local hall. If you want to keep the events happening in McLeese Lake, we greatly encourage coming out and supporting the committee members in their quest to provide events for the residents. They are always looking for new members to bring fresh new ideas on how to keep the hall open and provide different events to the community. We’ll see you on March 18.

Marie Carrier remembered (May 5, 1920 - Dec. 21, 2014)

Marie Carrier was born May 5, 1920 in the French Canadian village Zenon Park to parents Isaiah and Clara Chabot. Marie was the fifth of nine children. The family lived on a farm where the children worked hard milking cows before going to school. Life on the farm was hard, but there was always lots of food. Marie and her late husband grew up in the same town, and were married Nov. 6, 1939 in Zenon Park, Sask. Marie did all her schooling in Saskatchewan. They arrived in the Cariboo in 1953 with their children Jules, Denis, Paulette and Lauriere, and at the time spoke French, but soon learned to speak English. At first the family lived at Enterprise Road, 37 kilometres south of Williams Lake because there was work there for her husband, Alphonse. They then moved to 47 Mile and lived in a shack until Alphonse built a nice little house. They did not own a car, and had to rely on friends to take them to buy groceries and to go to church. That was until they made enough money to buy a car. Their first new car was a Pontiac. Marie remembered it well. They bought it in Williams Lake and at the time there was hardly anything in town. It was marvellous to

watch the town grow over the years. On Sundays after church the family would go for a drive to watch small planes land near First Avenue where there was a small airstrip. Eventually they moved to Gibbon Street so they would be closer to Alphonse’s place of work and to the Catholic church where Marie helped out with a lot of things to raise money for the hall. Marie taught Sunday school in her younger years and was a Catholic Women’s League member for 60 years. She was loved by all who knew her. She always had a beautiful smile and helped everyone around her. Eventually they moved to Green Acres Trailer Park and Alphonse worked as a custodian at Marie Sharpe Elementary School, where he stayed for 21 years. Marie was a seamstress sewing many graduation and wedding dresses, along with hemming and knitting a lot for the Catholic bazaars. She was a devoted Catholic, attending daily mass when she could. She lived it, always helping others in need. Marie attended all church functions. Sewing was her hobby. She loved it. She was driving her own car until her 93rd birthday. She never had a car accident but told us it was time to sell

Marie Carrier her car. She had been driving since 1956 when her husband bought the first car for her. Marie lost her husband, Alphonse, in 2008. Afterwards, she moved to Glen Arbor where she had many wonderful friends. She enjoyed living at Glen Arbor — she was a little mother hen — around there, helping others as our mother was wonderful at. She will be sadly missed by her children Denis (Karen) Carrier, Paulette (Frank)

Hrynkewich and Laurier (Jewel) Carrier and daughter-in-law, Eileen Carrier. She was predeceased by her son Jules, who passed away in 2011. She will also be missed by Marie’s brother Louie (Larra) Chabot, sister Madeline Roy (Ontario) and all her grandchildren, great grandchildren and great, great grandchildren, plus her many nephews, nieces and many friends. You are forever in our hearts, mom.

Canners It is with great sadness that the family of Ralph Canners announces his sudden passing at home on January 17, 2015 at the age of 60 years.

Resolution or no resolution; healthy eating tips for success There are two types of people, those who make New Year’s resolutions and those who do not. For those who make resolutions, the first page on a new calendar symbolizes a fresh change in their life. Those who do not make resolutions may see every day as the first day of the rest of their life and another opportunity to make a healthy change. Whichever philosophy you follow, making healthy lifestyle changes is always good. The most common health resolutions are to eat healthy, be more active and reduce smoking or alcohol use. While my tips focus on eating healthy these suggestions can also apply to other lifestyle changes. Before embarking on any lifestyle change, do a check in. Ask yourself what factors contribute to your current lifestyle? Without addressing these, healthy changes are harder to maintain over the long haul. For example, if you lack time to prepare healthy food or rely on ready-made entrees provided by a meal program, what will happen when you are pinched for time or when the program is over? Look for ways to include food you like with healthier options. If you like pizza, try one with whole grain crust, lots of extra vegetables, and chicken or shrimp rather than deli sausages. Try a smaller size pizza and add a readymade green salad or a hearty vegetable soup to complement the meal. Set a S.M.A.R.T. goal. S.M.A.R.T. stands for specific, measureable, attainable, realistic and timely. Rephrase your goals from “lose weight” to “increase my vegetable and fruit intake to at least seven servings per day by the end of January.” This S.M.A.R.T. goal is positive, measureable and focuses on what you can do. Check in with a professional. Registered dietitians are qualified specialists who can help ensure your meal plan is balanced and fits your

lifestyle. Be cautious of meal plans that avoid food groups or are too low in calories. Have a friend or family mem-

ber be your support person. Find someone who knows your goals and is willing to listen and encourage you with

words and actions like joining you for a walk or celebrating with you. A good support person can help you reach your

goals. Remember, our habits form over months, if not years, and expecting to overcome them

quickly is not realistic. Change takes time. Making healthy choices also takes practice and trial and error

but it can be done and you can do it. Rose Soneff is a registered dietitian with Interior Health.

was big enough for a bowl of water. Please note, Mr Chevy. Having the navigation system was great as getting to our destination was a little tricky, and finding our way in the dark could have been a minor trial. Our friendly ‘nav-lady’ delivered us easily. I especially liked getting plenty of warning about upcoming turns. Some navigation systems instruct you to turn at the very last moment, which is not helpful. Often our ‘nav-lady’ gave us two warnings sometimes even three ‘turn left in 250 metres’, ‘turn left in 100 metres’. Believe me it was comforting. All the places we wanted to visit parks, malls, trails and shops were easily found with no hassles. In Tacoma, a third dog joined us for adventures around town – Beau, a large

yellow lab. Everyone knows labs are eternal puppies who enjoy good times no matter where they land. This happy boy landed in the cargo area with the other two and still there was plenty of room for all three dogs with nary a complaint about someone’s paw being on someone’s side. It all made for a fun Christmas celebration with lots of treats, even for my backup navigator Patricia and myself.

All that energy is converted into electricity, and when the driver accelerates out of a corner, a 300-horsepower boost is delivered automatically to the rear of the vehicle. When combined with the TSO30’s ultra-efficient aerodynamics, the result is not only superior performance, but also increased fuel efficiency. The best part of the TS030 is how its unique capabilities are being integrated directly into Toyota’s hybrid offerings for consumers. “What we test on the race track we build for the road,” said Seiji Ichii, President and CEO, Toyota Canada Inc. “Toyota engineers test and study hybrid technology through the vehicle’s performance on the race track. They then apply the first-hand knowledge they gain — bringing award-winning engineering, performance and passion to all of Toyota’s hybrids.”

The Audi Prologue concept was summoned to its display position at the recent CES electronics show in Las Vegas by an LG smartwatch! Powered by a 4-litre TFSI engine, merged with an electric motor, the hybrid system produces a stunning total output of 690 hp. Piloted driving is what Audi brings to the table

That includes the Prius c and Prius v, whose new 2015 editions are also on display at the Montreal show. Attendees will be able to see how the 2015 Prius c – Toyota’s most affordable urban-friendly hybrid — has a sporty new look featuring a restyled front and new exterior colours, as well as an upgraded cabin with refined materials. The new 2015 Prius v — Toyota’s “big Prius” — also has a new look, including revised front and rear styling, complete with new front bumper, grille, and headlights. Inside, new audio systems bring new multimedia capabilities. The Prius c and Prius v, along with the TS030 and many other exciting Toyota vehicles — including the stunning FT-1 concept car making its Canadian debut — can be seen at the Toyota booth, located on Level 2 at the Palais des congrès. The show runs Jan. 16-25.

With only three swimmers qualified for the upcoming ‘AA’ provincial swimming championships, Williams Lake Blue Fins head coach Chad Webb took 24 swimmers to Quesnel during the weekend looking to improve on that number. “It was a great swim meet for so many of our Williams Lake swimmers who did a great job racing and coming away with lifetime bests,” Webb said. Blue Fins Landon Christensen and Taylor Fitzgerald did not disappoint, swimming their way to the top and qualifying for ‘AAs’ in multiple events. Christensen and Fitzgerald will now join Danika Robson, Keanna Saunders and Kelsey Blockland at provincials in Chilliwack in four short weeks. Cold Turner, mean-

while, had another great meet, Webb said, but fell just six one hundredth of a second short of qualifying with his second ‘AA’ time. “Although he was disappointed, I know he’ll be at the summer ‘AA’ provincials in June as he improves so much every meet,” Webb said. Saunders added to her collection of ‘AA’ times as she improved in most of her swims, Webb said, and now has a choice of her events for provincials. “She was named swimmer of the meet for taking more than 25 seconds off her swims and qualifying for ‘AAs’ in most of her events,” he said. Most of the club will now prepare for the Cariboo Dental Swim Meet in Williams Lake Feb. 28 to March 1. One week later the ‘AAA’ provincial swimmers head to Surrey to

A Step Ahead Residents can help with snow clearing operations Every winter, the City of Williams Lake makes prompt and efficient snow removal a priority. During the recent snowfalls, the City has had every available piece of equipment on the streets to clear snow from roads and sidewalks. Under the City’s Snow and Ice Control Policy, priority is given to the downtown core, where the objective is to have snow plowed, windrowed, and trucked away between 8 and 24 hours after a snow event. Within each of the City’s five snow removal zones, there are three areas with three different levels of priority. These roads will be the first to be plowed and treated following a snow event. Residential areas will be plowed and windrowed for cleanup. This procedure will take approximately 2496 hours to complete following the cleanup of the downtown core and will be done in conjunction with the solid waste collection route. Residents are asked to put garbage and recycling carts on the curb the morning of their collection day, not the night before, and to remove them from the curb as soon as possible following collection. Residents are also asked not to park cars overnight on City streets when there is snow. City Bylaws contain provisions to tow vehicles that interfere with snow removal operations at the owner’s expense. Snow clearing of City sidewalks, parking lot stairs, walkways and public transit bus stops may be cleaned within 8 – 24 hours after a storm where the City receives 5 centimeters of snow or more. In cases of extreme snow events, City staff assigned to other duties will be assigned to assist in snow clearing operations. Property owners are required to clear sidewalks and windrows in front of their property, and are asked to refrain from pushing snow into the street, which creates a safety issue and slows down snow clearing operations.

Avalanche Canada is pleased to announce a new tool for backcountry users that brings real-time information sharing to recreational users. The Mountain Information Network (MIN) offers an easy and effective method for backcountry users to submit weather, snowpack and avalanche observations. This data can then be viewed on the main map of Avalanche Canada’s website and mobile app. “The MIN is fully integrated with our website at avalanche.ca,” explains Karl Klassen, Manager of Avalanche Canada’s Public Ava-

lanche Warning Service. “Submissions to the network are geo-tagged, so others can easily see where the observations were made. The MIN gives all backcountry users access to real-time information and observations, which provides valuable decision-making support for travelling in avalanche terrain.” Submitting to the MIN is easily done through a smartphone or on a home computer. A menu of items is provided to guide the observations and there is also the capability to send photos and add

comments. These submissions then appear as small blue icons on the map in the app and at avalanche.ca, which other users can click to view. “We are very excited about the potential for the MIN,” adds Klassen. “The data flow from some of our forecasting regions is sometimes irregular, especially early and late in the season, and a few regions suffer from a scarcity of data. Receiving more observations from the field will be tremendously valuable to our forecasting process.” The MIN was developed through generous financial support from TECTERRA.
