Rescuing The RiveR

Casino labour dispute settled AlistAir tAylor Campbell RiveR miRRoR

Chances casino workers are going back to work today. The Playtime Community Gaming Campbell River lockout has been lifted after approval of a collective agreement, ratified by the employees represented by United Steelworkers (USW), Local 1-1937. The agreement, which has significant improvements in wages and working conditions, was ratified Jan. 20 with 83 per cent of the membership voting in favour of the proposed agreement. Rick Wangler, 1st Vice-President of USW, Local 1-1937 says, “It was a long process that started with the crew joining the union last January.” He goes on to say, “Although not everything the crew wanted was achieved, it is an agreement that has substantial improvements and for a first agreement is a pretty good one.” Improvements include wages, benefits, working conditions, seniority, and language on tips to name a few. The contract calls for a 7.25 per cent Continued on Pg. 3

Brian Shaw and the Campbellton Neighbourhood Association want to see access points to the Campbell River improved with viewing platforms and picnic tables, particularly at the foot of Maple Street and the Myrt Thompson trailhead.

Heart of Campbellton choked out and overgrown Kristen DouglAs Campbell RiveR miRRoR

It all starts at the river. That’s the message the Campbellton Neighbourhood Association is trying to drive home. But the potential of the river – a

jewel in the heart of Campbellton – is being choked out and overgrown with weeds, brush and other foliage. Brian Shaw, co-chair of the Campbellton Neighbourhood Association, told council at its Monday night meeting that the

group would like to see better access to the Campbell River which could, in turn, prove to be an economic driver for the northern end of the city. “It becomes the first step, you start at the river, it brings tourism,” Shaw said. “That brings

Police make arrests in rash of thefts from vehicles Three people have been arrested and are facing multiple charges in connection with a string of thefts from vehicles going back to last October. “A 24-year-old Campbell River woman, a 20 year old Campbell River man and an 18-year-old Campbell River man are currently facing charges relating to the thefts,”

Cpl. Poppy Hallam said in a press release. B etween Octob er, 2014 and Jan. 15, 2015, Campbell River RCMP responded to approximately 308 complaints of thefts from motor vehicles. C ampb el l River RCMP’s Community Response Unit was assigned to work on the investigation. Tips from the public, surveillance

video and solid police work lead the officers to the suspects and on Jan. 16 the first suspect was arrested and in the early morning of Jan. 17 the remaining two suspects were arrested. A warrant to search a residence on Eardley Road was executed and evidence was recovered. Two of the suspects were released from cus-

tody on strict conditions including curfews and no contact with each other. The 18-year-old male is still in custody as he has other outstanding charges before the court. During the course of the investigation, police seized over 100 pieces of evidence related to the thefts from vehicles and will be attempting to reunite these items with

increase in wages over the next four years. It also included a “significant jump” in wages to start with, Wangler said. “I was impressed with the crew’s determination and applaud them for both hanging in there during these difficult times and for recognizing a good first agreement when it was presented to them.” Chris Marleau, a Bargaining C ommittee member says, “The crew

is happy the dispute is over and is looking forward to getting back to work and welcoming customers back to the facility.” The company and the union will work together to bring the customers and the business back to the Campbell River Chances. Art Villa, spokesperson for Playtime said, “we are looking forward to having our employees back in the facility, back to work and ready to again serve our guests.

The job action has been stressful for all involved, but now that it is over we are hopeful that our guests may again return to enjoy our offerings.” Villa said the casino was closed Thursday to facilitate the re-opening and employees were scheduled to return to their full duties today with full services to resume at 10 a.m. “Playtime appreciates the effort that went into finalizing this agreement and expects that the transition for its employ-

ees from job action to regular duties will be smooth,” he said. This was the first contract for Campbell River Chances employees, the second one the USW has with this operator, the other one being in Abbotsford. “USW, Local 1-1937 would like to thank all those that supported our members throughout this ordeal and hope that if they are gaming enthusiasts they will play at the Campbell River facility,” Wangler said.

the rightful owners. This has and continues to be a complex investigation,” Cpl Hallam said. Meanwhile, police are urging residents to help them out. “Please continue to report suspicious activity to police because we cannot do it alone, we have to work together as a community,” Cpl. Hallam said.

Brian was the most devoted friend you could wish for, and those friendships meant the world to him. He loved his family and showed it in his own unique ways. We each had our own special bond with Brian... husband, father, son, brother, uncle and friend. I was spoiled to have 28 years with him.

to install five different viewing platforms along the river in order to make it more accessible to tourists and Campbell River residents. Currently, there are no view points along the south shore of the Campbell River between the end of Myrt Thompson Trail and the log-

ging bridge upriver. Shaw told council that there are two areas along the river that the association would like the city to pay attention to. “The first would be the MOH (Ministry of Highways) and city lands west of the bridge right of way heading north along Tamarac

Street,” Shaw said. “The MOH parcel, which was utilized as a laydown yard when the bridge was being constructed, needs to be acquired by the city in the near term.” Shaw said the Neighbourhood Association has a vision to develop a small park area off the road near River Sportsman and the bridge that connects Campbellton with northern Campbell River. “Conceptual site planning work illustrates that the site would work well for a Tourist Information Centre with access off of Enns Road,” Shaw said. “The site is large enough to accommodate a 2,000 plus square foot building with ample vehicle parking and landscaped boulevards. An extensive park area could be developed along the Campbell River with a lookout platform at the river’s edge and a walkway heading south under the bridge structure.” But, before the association can move forward with those plans, Shaw

Neighbourhood wants city to get on the bus Kristen Douglas

Campbell RiveR miRRoR

T he C ampb el lton Neighbourhood Association has big plans to improve that section of the city in 2015. While the group would like to plant a community garden where neighbours can gather, and liven up the streets with banners, one of the items at the top of the list is the establishment of bus shelters. Brian Shaw, co-chair of the Neighbourhood Association, told council at its Monday night meeting that Campbellton deserves the same treatment as the rest of the city. “Seven shelters were developed last year. Please note that Campbellton has no bus shelters and that with the addition of the Willis Road route, some of that allocation should go to Campbellton this year,” Shaw said. The association is recommending that a transit hub be created and that it be centrally located – at Redwood and Highway 19A.

Campbellton as viewed with Google Earth.

To a c c o m m o d at e pedestrians walking to and from the bus stops, the Neighbourhood Association is also asking the city to consider adding more sidewalks in the Campbellton area, to complement the new sidewalks that were added last year on 15th Avenue and Spruce Street. To further improve pedestrian safety, the addition of pedestrian crossing lights at key Campbellton intersections, as well as street light improvements, are also on the Neighbourhood Association’s list. Shaw said there are several street lights

that need to be either installed or replaced. “The village is poorly illuminated,” Shaw said. “We’ve provided the city with a complete review of the changes required last November. We understand that the administration is in discussions with BC Hydro and request council consider funding any requirements demanded by Hydro to make our streets safer.” But while the association is asking for the city’s help, Shaw pointed out that the group is somewhat self-sufficient and last year fundraised $14,512. “We actually have

made money this year and we’re not totally dependent on city assistance, although it is certainly appreciated,” Shaw said. C ou n . R on Ke r r praised the association for its efforts. “Your whole organization has been doing a great job. You’re working hard,” Kerr said. “The thing I like is you haven’t been just putting your hand out and asking for money. You’ve been steadfastly making money, raising money and making efficient use of your time.” Kerr also told Shaw that he would be bringing some of the Camp-

bellton Neighbourhood Association’s project requests to council’s 2015 budget discussions which get underway next month. One of those requests is for funding to continue the partnership between the Campbellton Neighbourhood Association and Vancouver Island University. Last year the city gave the association a $7,500 grant and $3,000 in inkind donations, as well

as made an application to the BC Real Estate Foundation for a further $10,500 grant. Shaw said the group is requesting the same from the city this year in order to rehire a geography class from the Nanaimo-based university. “We ask that council fund CNA $7,500 and we will make up the difference of $10,500 in order to apply for the matching $10,500 using the same formula as last time,”

Shaw said. “The program has been a great success. The class provided us with a very professional action plan (for Campbellton) last fall.” Shaw told council that if he had to prioritize the association’s projects for 2015, continuing on the partnership with the Vancouver Island University students would come in at number one. “I think it’s very important for the future right now,” Shaw said.

Our View

Target employees suffer the fallout “When do you suppose everything will go on sale?” people gleefully asked when they heard of the imminent closure of one of Canada’s big-box retailers, wringing their collective hands at the sound of words like “liquidation.” When retail giant Target announced its plan to expand into Canada, many thought it would provide competition for stores like Walmart and Superstore. We thought they would offer a range of affordable products and add options to our consumerism. We thought the American behemoth would bring with it the buying power – and therefore discounts on goods – they enjoy across the border in the U.S. But it was not to be. The general feeling out there is that Target took on too much, too fast. They overreached and wrongly assumed while delivering too little benefit to Canadians, who had lofty (some would say naive) expectations for the retailer to live up to. People expected to find here what they found when they went We say: Give south to shop. And now some thought to they have announced their departure, and the jobs lost rather first thing the public than bargains thinks is, “When does the blowout start?” We don’t blame people for thinking this way. We understand that everyone’s budgets are tight in these tough economic times. But we also wish the public’s thoughts would turn more quickly to those who will soon find themselves out of work, and the impact of Target’s departure on others who, through no fault of their own, will take a financial hit due to the retailer’s failure here. More than 17,000 Canadians are employed by Target. The company has formed a trust to help those who will lose their jobs, but anyone who has ever lived with employment uncertainty will point out, that’s little consolation right now. An anonymous letter received recently by Black Press from a Target employee said, “Many of us don’t know where we will go after Target closes. We don’t know how we’ll make ends meet. So in light of all the sales that will happen, please remember that the employees are people, too. We don’t want to be asked when the store officially closes or when the crazy sales will start. A kind wish of ‘good luck’ will do.” So maybe next time you see a “Going Out Of Business” sign, try to think about someone else’s plight and have some empathy instead of rushing in to find out what’s on sale, elbowing your way down the aisles. – Black Press

Letters Re: U.S. ripping us off on water, B.C. Views (Jan. 7). This is an issue all of B.C. should have the same view on and an extremely important one at that. Energy Minister Bill Bennett should have given the 10-year notice to exit the agreement. I don’t think we could ever actually deny the U.S. access to our water, as it would ultimately lead to an invasion. We should however fire the warning shot that we want a fair dollar for the resource. Matt Taylor Saanich

Campbellton: a river runs by it Man, I tell you, I love a grand vision. And Brian Shaw and the rest of the Campbellton Neighbourhood Association have a grand vision for the Campbell River as it runs past Campbellton. I spent a few minutes at the Campbell River Wednesday afternoon setting up a photo to go with Kristen Douglas’ story on the Rescue The River campaign the CNA has launched. While we were down there, Shaw outlined their vision for turning the river into a tourist and resident asset by installing viewing platforms and access points to the river. Just like Campbell River’s oceanfront is one of the community’s greatest recreation amenities and tourist draws – via the Seawalk and the spectacular ocean views – so, too can the river become a popular draw. If you can get at it. Right now the most popular access point to the river is at the foot of Maple Street where the Myrt Thompson Trail begins. Besides accessing the trail

and this is the part I love – fishing the river. It’s like a pier for the river. As big a tourist draw as the Discovery Pier is, imagine fly fishing off a platform into the Campbell. The theme behind all of this is to open up more access to the river, particularly in a stretch that has been extensively urbanized. It’s due for a makeover because it’s kinda ugly. The problem is, this is the entrance to Campbell River for a lot of visitors. Shaw said googling Campbell River will land you right at the corner of Tamarac and Highway 19, near the MOH/City lot. Not the most picturesque introduction to Campbell River. Campbellton really does need a makeover. Of course money is tight these days but there are infrstructure dollars available from senior governments. Some of the improvements, however, like the Rescue the River proposals, can be done with fewer dollars. It would at least be a start.

Saanich hires former Campbell River city manager as interim CAO Saanich’s new interim chief administrative officer is promising to help tackle the many challenges facing Saanich and its council over the coming months. Andy Laidlaw, who retired earlier this month as Campbell River’s city manager after four years in that role, will begin work Jan. 28 and remain as acting CAO until Saanich council finds a permanent replacement. Laidlaw replaces former CAO Paul Murray, who left the District in December with a handsome $476,000 severance – including $55,000 in unused vacation time – after Mayor Richard Atwell asked Murray to step down. In a statement, coun-

Marine Harvest Canada’s Marsh Bay farm is the first salmon farm in North America to attain Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) certification. The company expects its first ASC salmon to enter the North American market in February. Meeting ASC salmon requirements is particularly challenging given its demanding expecta-

cil said Laidlaw brings nearly 40 years of local government leadership experience to the interim CAO role. He spent 35 years with the City of Nanaimo and held senior positions including director of parks,

recreation and culture and general manager of operations. Laidlaw will be taking over bureaucratic operations at the District of Saanich during a contentious period. B.C.’s privacy commissioner Elizabeth Denham is currently investigating the installation and use of employee monitoring software known as Spector 360, after Saanich police investigated the software’s installation on the Mayor’s and other computers and found no criminal wrongdoing. Denham can compel disclosure of documents, interview government or company officials, make legal findings and issue compliance orders to the District or make recom-

mendations for change. In early 2011, Laidlaw joined the City of Campbell River as city manager where he worked until he retired in midJanuary. As a child, Laidlaw attended Frank Hobbs elementary and then Gordon Head junior high (now Mt. Douglas High). He was also on the first team of the then-newly established Saanich Braves. After leaving Saanich, Laidlaw went to high school in North Vancouver and graduated from the University of B.C. with a bachelor of recreation education. He then studied public administration at the University of Victoria.

tions and has required fundamental changes to Marine Harvest’s Canadian operations. The standard emphasizes environmental and conservation principles that protect natural habitats, biodiversity and wild fish populations through rigorous criteria for environmental monitoring, responsible disease management, and feed ingredient choice.

Demonstrating socially responsible practices that support workers and communities is another significant focus of the standard. Given the company’s commitment to achieve certification of all farms by 2020, Marine Harvest Canada’s Public Affairs Director, Clare Backman, states he is proud of this first step which “validates our commitment to align

our operations with the toughest standards and highest environmental and social principles. We are happy to celebrate this milestone which has been anticipated by the public and our customers.” Marsh Bay joins fewer than 30 salmon farms worldwide that have succeeded in achieving the certification since the standard’s release in June 2012.

Andy Laidlaw begins work in Saanich on Jan. 28.

old home already on the property. The building and property, located in northern Campbell River near the corner of Highway 19A and Antonelli Road, was previously a single family residence which Holbrook intends to transform into office space. Rob Wood of Holbrook Dyson made a presentation to council at its Monday night meeting to explain why the logging company is on the move. “We’ve been in our present office location since ’91 and we basically have outgrown the infrastructure and the parking lot where we are,” Wood said, “so we purchased this property earlier last spring and we intend to upgrade it.” Wood said parking is particularly challenging at the current office site on 14th Avenue. With the new space, Wood said workers will have ample space to park their cars in the lot for the day. “The area will be for vehicle parking only, there will be no heavy equipment of any sort,” Wood said. In addition to improvements to the old residential home, Holbrook also plans to build a detached

workshop building on the site. Wood assured council that only equipment will be stored in the workshop. “It will be dry storage – for parts and pieces – so no oils or anything,” said Wood, taking into consideration a stream near the property. Kathleen Wilker, the city’s planner, said that Holbrook’s new home is far enough away from the stream that there shouldn’t be any problems. “Given that there is a property between the stream/ditch and the subject site, sedimentation from the development and use on the

subject property…is of little risk,” Wilker wrote in a report to council. “A letter from the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (dated Nov.1, 1999) notes that ‘there should be no new construction of any kind within 30 metres of the stream.’ The applicant has indicated that no development activity is planned for this area. As such, the streamside development permit area has not been triggered and a QEP (Qualified Environmental Professional’s) assessment was not completed.” Wilker said overall the new building should be an improvement to what’s currently on site. “The location of the project along the ‘gateway’ to Campbell River is

significant and of interest to council due to the positive visual impact the proposed improvements to the property will have (and) it will be noticed by all who drive past,” Wilker wrote. “The site access, internal circulation pattern and parking have been handled effectively by using the existing driveway/ access onto Island Highway while still retaining some green area at the front of the property which softens the harsh feel associated with similar commercial uses.” Wood said he’s confident that everyone will be satisfied with the end product. “We feel that it will improve the area and it will help us a lot in the business world,” he said.

Family Services gets incredible gift

FRIDAY, FRIDAY,JANUARY JANUARY23, 23,2015 2015 | | CAMPBELL CAMPBELLRIVER RIVERMIRROR MIRROR | | 99

KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

“It’s spectacular. It’s a dream come true.” That was Brien Dolan’s reaction when he, the staff and board members of Campbell River Family Services received what to them was an unimaginable gift. In mid-December, staff at the non-profit society – who provide assistance to hundreds of Campbell River families – found it was their time to accept a hand up. Janis MacDougall, who works with Family Services, and her family were looking for a way to contribute to the community and chose to give Family Services the gift of real estate. The good news was officially made public on Wednesday afternoon. Camille Lagueux, executive director of Family Services, said that after 38 years of renting space, having a place to call their own will be a dream come true. “This gift – I don’t even know how to describe it – it’s overwhelming, it’s monumental,” Lagueux said. “I think it’s the dream of most non-profits to be self-sufficient in terms of building ownership.” Campbell River Family Services has been leasing building space since its inception in 1977. It currently operates out of shared building space on 10th Avenue and provides services to individuals, children, youth and families. Services range from prevention to intervention and include abuse prevention and trauma treatment, family and parenting services, victim support, counselling and family drop-in programs. For MacDougall and her family, Family Services is close to their hearts. MacDougall’s mother and father, Freda and Pat Martin, are long-time supporters of Family Services. Freda Martin said it was a no brainer when MacDougall approached her about purchasing

some property for the organization. “We feel personally a little responsible and want to help any way we can,” Martin said. “We’ve been really proud to say Janis is with Family Services because it’s such a worthwhile service.” It was MacDougall who approached her mother and siblings – sisters Carol Marshall and Donna Sharkey, who has since passed away, and brother David Williams – about buying the property. “They all very gratefully said ‘yes’. My parents in the past had supported Family Services quite strongly and my sister (Carol Marshall) volunteers here,” MacDougall said. “They all appreciate what has been done by the society and they stand behind it.” While there is no timeline yet for when the new home will be up and running, a sign will soon go up on the property announcing the future home of Family Services. The lot is located at 544 South Dogwood, which is beside Granlund Firearms; it’s the northern most property on the empty lot and is across the street from the movie theatre. Once the property has been marked, Family Services will launch a fundraising campaign to raise money for construction costs. Lagueux said the possibilities with the new space are endless. She has visions of adding a playground, a community garden where parents and their children can

MacDougall said as happy as she will be to see Family Services grow into their own space, she also hopes that her family’s efforts will encourage others to step up and lend support. “For our family, our hope is that this is a first step and that others in the community will see the great things that Campbell River Family Services has done locally and be willing to also participate in creating and helping to build this new home,” she said. Dolan, the chair of the Family Services board of directors, said he hopes it will help shed some light on the society and its role in the community. “The clients we serve

and the work we do is somewhat in the shadows,” Dolan said. “It’s not super high-profile but the work we do is so fundamentally important.” Lagueux said she hopes to see a new build-

Chamber music treasure to play Quadra Ensemble Vivant will play the Quadra Community Centre on Feb. 6

The internationally acclaimed Ensemble Vivant will play at the Quadra Community Center on Friday, Feb. 6. Pres ented by the Quadra Island Cultural Committee, Ensemble Vivant has been hailed as “Canada’s Chamber Music Treasure.” Their recordings and concerts throughout North America and Europe are performances at the highest level of music-making. Led by pianist Catherine Wilson, with Cory Gemmell, violin, Sybil Shanahan, cello, Norman Hathaway, viola and jazz great Don Thompson on vibes and piano, Ensemble Vivant has won international recognition for their passion, virtuos-

ity and sublime musical sensitivity. Expect a genre-diverse concert, including arrangements written exclusively for the group by some of today’s greatest jazz composers. Virtuoso pianist and recording artist Catherine Wilson is one of Canada’s most talented and innovative pianists. She has been repeatedly honoured for her exceptional artistry as well as her unique and imaginative programming. Five seasons ago, jazz legend and west coast native Don Thompson, O.C., joined the group in concert and recording. Well known in the jazz world as a brilliant multi-instrumentalist, he has enriched the jazz

repertoire of the group with arrangements and compositions of his own. Inspired by his association with Catherine Wilson and Ensemble Vivant Don wrote: “I’ve been a professional musician for the past 50 years and during that time I’ve worked with some of the greatest musicians in the world, from Glenn Gould to Oscar Peterson. But the passion and beauty of Catherine Wilson’s piano playing is overwhelming. She is a beautifully gifted pianist and musician with a depth of feeling that separates her from the rest. I am honored to be part of her music and honored to join Canada’s world class Ensemble Vivant.”

With an exciting program drawn largely from two of their eleven recordings, “The Fugue Project” and “Latin Romance,” this concert should change any preconceptions of Chamber Music. Doors open at 7 p.m., concert begins at 7:30 and will conclude by 10

p.m. allowing audience members to return to Campbell river on the last ferry. Advance tickets are $17 and are available at the usual outlets: the Music Plant in Campbell River, Inspirations in Quathiaski Cove and Works of H’Art in Heriot Bay. Tickets at the door will be $20.

Family literacy can be broadly defined as the way parents, children and extended family members use literacy at home, at work, at school and in their community, and how families learn together in these contexts.

FAMILY

Literacy WEEK January 24 through 31, 2015

15 MINUTES OF FUN, FAMILIES LEARNING TOGETHER In honour of Family Literacy Day’s 17th year, ABC Life Literacy Canada is encouraging Canadian families to have “15 Minutes of Fun” learning together. Learning can happen at any time. Practicing literacy together for just 15 minutes a day has tremendous benefits for both children and parents.

FAMILY LITERACY WEEK Your family’s literacy starts with good eyesight. Did you know...

3

80% of all children’s learning is through the eyes* so it is very important that all children have an eye exam by age 3, and yearly after that.

3

Healthy eyes are critical to maintaining yours and your children’s overall health and wellness.

3

Regular Eye Health Exams with your optometrist can also provide early detection of many issues without obvious sypmtoms such as Glaucoma, Diabetes, High Blood Pressure, and many more.

Get your family’s eye health checked regularly.

Music education can help with school skills Studies into the effects of music on learning are nothing new. Such studies have been conducted for decades, gaining popularity during the 1950s when research was done on something called the “Mozart Effect.” The Mozart Effect theorizes that listening to Mozart can temporarily improve performance and may even boost a person’s IQ. In response, many parents started playing Mozart and other classical music in their homes. By the late 1990s, Baby Einstein, a company that offers a wide range of developmental and entertainment products for babies and toddlers, released a series of CDs and videos that prominently featured classical music amid visual learning sequences for young children. “Baby Mozart,” “Baby Bach” and “Baby Beethoven” were just a few of the videos capitalizing on the evidence that children learn more when exposed to classical music. Ongoing research continues to support the theory that music education can help

children on many levels. A research group from McMaster University conducted their own study into music education. That study, which was published in the journal Brain in 2006, examined two groups of children, ages 4 to 6. Each were taught the same lessons, but one group was also given musical instruction. The study found that the group of children who received musical instruction scored much better than their peers in literacy, mathematics, IQ, and memory skills. Long Island University researchers Joseph Piro and Camilo Ortiz found that children exposed to a multi-year program of music instruction, involving training in increasingly complex rhythmic, tonal, and practical skills, displayed superior cognitive performance in reading skills compared to their peers who did not receive musical training. The authors concluded that, “because neural response to music is a widely distributed system within the brain, it would not be unreasonable to expect that some processing networks for music and language behaviors, namely reading, located in both hemispheres of the brain would overlap.” Music education is not just for the average student. Other research shows it may be beneficial to children with dyslexia and other learning disabilities. A study completed at Stanford University showed that mastering a musical instrument improves the ability to process parts of the spoken language. In many schools, music education is being drastically reduced or eliminated. Parents may want to look outside the classroom for music instruction or play more music at home.

FAMILY LITERACY WEEK

Family fun for babies and toddlers Gather household objects that make different noises, ie: plastic containers with something inside, spoons, pot lids and toys. Make lots of different sounds and rhythms. Use objects that make both hard and soft sounds. Talk about what you hear. Make a treasure basket. Fill a basket with safe household items that have different colours, textures, weights, sizes etc. For younger babies, a basket with soft fabric, a soft toy, a soft sponge, and a soft towel is appropriate. • Young babies can hold, mouth, and drop blocks. And they can watch you stack and knock over blocks. As children develop, they can start to sort, stack and build with blocks. Make sure the blocks are designed for very young children. The Canadian Association of Optometrists recommend a full eye examination by age three for all children.

Dr. Ghislaine Lauzon Optometrist

• Does it roll? Roll a ball back and forth between you and your toddler. What makes it roll faster? What other things will roll? • Read books together. Books with colourful pictures, numbers, and photographs accompanied by your voice help your child learn about the world. Through these activities, your child: • practices observing his/her world • learns to listen carefully • discovers that different objects have different properties • learns new words • develops hand eye coordination • learns that when they do something, it makes other things happen • has fun!

How does family literacy affect children’s literacy and learning? Families spontaneously engage in meaningful and purposeful literacy, regardless of socioeconomic, cultural and linguistic differences.

A word about technology for children aged two and under: Currently, doctors and early childhood education professionals recommend limited or no screen time for infants and toddlers. When technology is used, it should be used with adults to help strengthen adult-child relationships.

• In Canada, children whose parents often engaged in a literacy-related activity with them before they started school did better on reading achievement tests.

FAMILY LITERACY WEEK Literacy Matters for Families

Literacy Matters for Children and Youth

• Reading to children before they start school helps develop their language skills and their interest in reading and learning in general.

• In BC, 1 in 4 children is “developmentally vulnerable” when beginning kindergarten and 1 student in 5 is not completing high school in the expected time.

• The children of parents with higher education levels have higher literacy levels, and much of the benefit comes with high school graduation

• In 2008, 20 percent of Canadian teenagers aged 15 to 19 were no longer pursuing a formal education.

• Almost 4 in 10 youths aged 15 have insufficient reading skills.

Lay the groundwork for their future success by reading together. Research shows that something as simple as reading together for 15 to 20 minutes each day is one of the most significant things parents can do to support their child’s academic success. Think of how you can encourage and support reading and be a ‘reading role model’ for the children in your life. For other tools for success, visit www.sd72.bc.ca

Is all this stress necessary? ChEylyn loughEEd CARIhI MIRROR

With the switchover of semesters just over two weeks away, students have begun to feel the strain of the incoming days. Preparations for provincial government exams often leads to stress and anxiety, which has led many students to question the current methods of standardized testing. In British Columbia, the required provincial exams differ for each grade, with Grade 10 having three, and Grades 11 and 12 having one. Twenty per cent of a Grade 10 and 11student’s final marks are dependent on their exam score, while for Grade 12 students, it is worth 40 per cent. These exams often feature multiple choice and written section. Students get a total of three hours to complete the exam. The exams are formatted so that each student will have an equal opportunity to demonstrate their understanding of the subject. However, standardized testing has been criticized by those who believe it to be an inaccurate way of grading a student’s knowledge, as the conditions surrounding the exam can

affect those taking it. “It really depends on the person and the subject. It’s hard to come up with a different way to judge how much a student has learned in math, but with English, there’s such a wide variety of options, and most people have difficulty producing work that accurately reflects their skills and learning outcomes in that limited amount of time,” said Gina Klein, a Grade 12 student who has exams in Physics 12 and Pre-calculus 12 this semester. “There’s a lot of factors that could interfere with a student’s ability to perform under those circumstances. If someone has an off day, gets horrible test anxiety, or if they don’t work well under pressure, that could completely change the way they go about doing the exam.” Megan Koster joins those who believe that exams are an inaccurate way of accessing students, stating: “Test scores do not accurately measure learning; they measure a student’s ability to excel at standardized tests.” It begs the question: Is there an alternative way of standardized testing that benefits both parties? Or is the current format the most efficient way?

Students prepare for exam week by taking advantage of after-school tutoring.

Tutoring provides some relief Evan JohansEn CARIhI MIRROR

Exams are just around the corner for Campbell River high school students and revisions are constantly being pushed to the last minute. Carihi offered afterschool tutoring three times a week for students who need help with exam preparations. And it seemed to help kids a lot. “It’s a nice and quiet area to study and work by yourself, or with your

friends if they’re not in your classes. Having a teacher there who can help if you need it is also nice,” says Julianna, a Grade 10 student. She also says, “it’s a good incentive to actually do your work, because a lot of the time I don’t get stuff done at home.” It’s a stressful subject that people often forget about, but studying is a big part of any high school student’s life, and kids often forget about exam week until it’s

already there. Chariti Stewart says that “a lot of kids really need the time to work after school, even if it didn’t help me personally.” Cramming for forgotten subjects can be seen in classrooms and outside of them too, and Austin, a Grade 10 student, says “it’s going to take me at least six hours of studying for one of my exams and we crammed a lot of information in at the last few weeks in a couple of classes.”

After-school tutoring is certainly helping a lot of students get through the stressful and tiring weeks leading up to exams and will pay off once exams actually take place. “I only went once and really it was more to work on overdue assignments than everything else,” says Hayley Ellis. Even just an environment free of distractions and temptations could help a student get their work done before exams, despite what a daunting topic it might seem like.

Athletic achievements honoured Lock it or lose it, Greta Hamilton CARIhI MIRROR

Carihi’s newest infrastructure is pinned to the gym wall for athletes to look up to. It’s an honour board, recognizing sports teams for their accomplishments, including placing at regional, provincial and national championships. It also lists alumni athletes that have gone on to achieve excellence in sport. Many athletes at Carihi participating in one or more sports teams also succeed academically and in the arts, integrating the athletic community with the school and with other aspects of learning and achievement. Here’s what students had to say about the honour board, and the recognition of sport programs at Carihi. “I think its important that athletes get recognized because they pour a lot of time and energy into fulfilling their goals.

Carihi’s new honour board.

As athletes we have to make a lot of sacrifices with school or family and friends so its really encouraging when we get positive feedback,” says Renate Bluschke, a student who plays on Carihi’s basketball, volleyball and track teams, as well as participating in volleyball and track in the community. “Every other high school I’ve been to has had an honour board and I’ve always asked myself why Carihi didn’t have one. I think it’s really good that we are finally putting one up. I hope it

will serve as a form of recognition for the hard working athletes Carihi has had over the years as well as an inspiration for our younger athletes coming in.” Madison Ashcroft plays for Carihi’s senior girls soccer team and C omets community track team runner. She says, “The vision I have for the honour board would be that people with records or placing won’t be forgotten, we’ll remember that those people came from Carihi and our little town. It will also be like a goal

for some people, knowing that someone from a small town could make it big.” Carihi alumni athlete and runner Brendan Hoff says he has felt the school and community’s support, and is thrilled local athletes will be better recognized for their successes. “The honour board would mean a lot for the athletes that have worked very hard to achieve their goals and represented their school while competing,” Hoff says. “In my mind I feel like the band program and musical theatre program hasn’t been recognized enough for some of the amazing work they have done and produced. I’m very grateful for how much support Carihi has given over the years. They have recognized many of my great achievements and I’m very proud I was able to represent my school and home town for my first two years of high school.”

cycling students learn Claire BillinGs CARIhI MIRROR

More and more people are using bikes as their main form of transportation these days. It’s cheap, relatively easy and, of course, it’s a great way to get some physical activity. Unfortunately, along with the rise of cyclists, bike theft is also becoming more and more frequent. “My mom’s brand new mountain bike was stolen from our garage,” says Megan Koster, “We’d always felt like our neighborhood was safe from theft, but now we are a lot more careful.” Unfortunately, bike theft happens all over our city. “I left my bike hiding in the rocks by the pier, because I wasn’t allowed to walk my bike on to the pier,” says Daniel Morton. “When I came back it was

gone, I was crushed, and I couldn’t get anywhere, it really sucked,” What can Campbell Riverites do if their bike is stolen? According to the City of Campbell River website, the best thing to do is to tell the police as much as possible, as soon as possible. If you plan on leaving your bike unattended, locked or not, write down the serial number and take pictures of your bike. Once reported to the police, the serial number and description will go into their computer system. If your bike is stolen, it is recommended to also check local pawn shops. However, the best way to prevent bike theft is simply by using high quality locks. It’s a smart and safe investment. At the end of the day, would you rather purchase a lock, or a new bike?

IT’S HERE! Relay for Life forced to make changes J.R. RARDON BLACK PRESS

T

he North Island’s annual Relay for Life is looking to get bigger. By going smaller. The fundraiser for the Canadian Cancer Society, facing declining participation in both Campbell River and Port Hardy, is trimming the 12-hour, overnight relay down to a six-hour event in those communities this spring. “Unfortunately, the numbers have been declining every year,” said Lisa Harrison, the Canadian Cancer Society’s Community Giving coordinator for the North Island. “We’ve found in surveys, talking to teams and participants, that 12 hours is just too much. We’ve decided to do a shorter event instead of cancelling it and losing those fundraising dollars.” The Campbell River Relay for Life is scheduled for June 19 at Phoenix Middle School, beginning at 6 p.m. Instead of the traditional walk or run from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m., participants will be released at midnight. The Relay’s signature moments — the Survivors’ Lap, the lighting of the luminaries for those lost to the disease, and the Fight Back ceremony — will remain and be compressed into the shortened format. “I believe in the whole 12-hour concept, because the point is cancer never sleeps,” said Harrison, who began volunteering with the relay in Port Hardy five years ago after watching her mother-in-law suc-

Good hearing, poor comprehension? 7x5.5

The number of people who can hear well, but can’t understand what’s being said, is increasing. This is most evident in conversations and watching television. A newlydeveloped hearing chip is designed to restore speech comprehension without being noticeable in the ear.

A lot of people have poor comprehension, though they actually still hear well. It becomes noticeable in conversation, watching television and asking family to repeat what’s been said. A potential cause can be undetected loss in the high-frequency range. This means the sensory cells in the cochlea that hear high-range sounds are damaged as a result of circulatory disorders, diabetes, sudden hearing loss or workplace noise. Hearing loss in the highfrequency range makes speech sound muffled and unclear. The person with hearing loss mixes up, or can no longer hear, consonants like s, f, t, k, h and g. Speech comprehension is particularly impaired when there is background noise or when television programs have background music. The dilemma is that people with hearing loss in the high-frequency range do not

and speech comprehension analysis is done. Where inner-ear damage is present, a software program analyzes the difference relative to normal hearing. These values are then input into the new Venture hearing chip in the Audéo V, which precisely takes into account and balances the frequency range of the person being tested. The test phase in particular is designed to clarify how speech comprehension can be improved in various situations and what role a new technology called “Autosense OS” plays. The chip recognizes where the person being spoken to is located and amplifies only his or her voice, while ambient noise is lowered and the optimum hearing programs are seamlessly adjusted. Thanks to several synchronous microphones, the hearing system can detect sound in all directions and select the direction that speech is coming from within milliseconds. According to Swiss researchers, this significantly augments speech comprehension, especially in conversation.

Riptide move into first place after tough battle The U15 Upper Island Riptide played the Lower Island Saanich/Prospect in a battle for first place in their division Sunday afternoon. Saanich has b een positioned there most recently but with a Riptide win on Sunday the Upper Island team would reclaim that prized top spot. These teams split their previous two games this season and are widely considered closely matched in terms of skill and physicality. Adding to this, and making the game that much

more intense were the extremely wet, slippery conditions the teams contended with at Pinecrest Field. The teams traded chances in the first half with the Riptide having two glorious chances but getting thwarted by the stellar play of the Saanich keeper. With 17 minutes gone in the first half, a foul called against the Riptide led to a free kick, which the Riptide keeper was not able to corral and the ball bounced to the feet of one of the Saanich players who made it 1-0 Saanich. Though the

clinch first place, Riptide raised their level of play and with three minutes left in the game, a corner kick taken by Charlie Purcell dropped into the centre of the box and was headed home by Nicholas Mitchell. The Riptide now have a record of nine wins, three losses, and one tie, giving them 28 points, which puts them in first place in the league - one point ahead of Saannich/Prospect. Riptide’s next game is Sunday, Jan. 25 when they head to Nanaimo to play the fourth place Storm.

Riptide pushed hard they were held off the scoreboard the rest of the first half. Riptide raised their intensity and found another gear for the second half. The team penned Saanich into their own end for much of the rest of the game and created solid chances, but Saanich’s goalkeeper made several fine saves. Finally, the Riptide’s Eugene Park was able to get his foot on a loose ball in the box and put it away, tying the game 1-1. Knowing that a tie would not be enough to

Tax-Free Savings Accounts (TFSAs) should be on your personal savings radar. Since they were first introduced by the federal government in 2009, TFSAs have been acknowledged as a great vehicle for tax-free savings growth. To make sure you get every TFSA benefit, here is what you need to know about TFSAs. • •

Every Canadian resident over 18 years of age is eligible to open a TFSA. Contributions to investments held within a TFSA are not tax deductible but do grow on a tax-free basis. The annual TFSA contribution limit is indexed to inflation in $500 increments and in 2013, the Canada Revenue Agency increased the limit to $5,500, where it remains for 2015. You’ll maximize the value of your TFSA by making the most of all available contribution room. But even if you don’t use all your contribution room every year, it accumulates year after year, so you can use it in the future. If you have never had

Withdrawals from a TFSA do not affect eligibility for incometested benefits such as Old Age Security (OAS). A TFSA can be a good choice for both short and long term financial goals – providing a ready source of emergency funds, a good way to save for everything from a new car to a dream vacation or a down payment on a new home, saving taxes on your nonregistered investments, and adding to your retirement savings. A TFSA works best for you when you work with your professional advisor to make it a vital element in your overall financial plan.

PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE

Proposal for 2284 Galerno Road, by Michael Bromilow (City File ZON 14-054): Bylaw No. 3568, 2014: To amend Zoning Bylaw 3250, 2006, to rezone the property located at 2284 Galerno Road from Residential One (R-1) to Residential One-A (R-1A) to permit the addition of a secondary suite. Legal Description: LOT 3, DISTRICT LOT 218, COMOX DISTRICT, PLAN VIP59656 Contact: City of Campbell River, Development Services Department at 250-286-5726.

Notice is hereby given that the City of Campbell River, in cooperation with the Heart of the City Business Improvement Area Society (HoCBIAS), is proposing to establish a business improvement area in the downtown core for a 5 year term. Over the past 5 years the owners of Class 6 Business/Other property lying within the Heart of the City Business Improvement Area (HoCBIA) have paid a “local service tax”. The tax is collected by the City of Campbell River to be used by the HoCBIAS to operate a “business promotional scheme”. The funds raised through the local service tax have enabled the HoCBIAS to promote the downtown core through marketing and beautification projects. The boundaries of the HoCBIA are defined on the following map. In order for the HoCBIA to continue operating, City Council must adopt a new bylaw which would re-establish the HoCBIA for 5 years. The Society has asked that the bylaw be processed as a “Council initiative” under the authority of the Community Charter – Part 7, Division 5. Under the “Council initiative” method, Council may, by bylaw, proceed with the renewal of the HoCBIA unless at least 50% of the owners of the parcels that would be subject to the local service tax sign a petition against, and the persons signing are the owners of parcels that in total represent at least 50% of the assessed value of land and improvements that would be subject to the local service tax. HoCBIAS’ proposed budget for 2015 is $42,586, with a 7% increase the first year and 5% annual increase thereafter. In order to raise the funds requested by the HoCBIAS for 2015, owners of Class 6 property lying within the HoCBIA would be required to pay a local service tax at a rate of approximately $2.25 per $1,000 of assessed value of the improvements (buildings) on their property. The Discovery Inn and Harbourside Inn are included in the HoCBIA boundaries on the basis that it will pay a percentage of its assessed improvement value representing the retail portion of the building. Owners of Class 6 property located within the HoCBIA boundary, that are opposed to the renewal of the HoCBIA, must notify the City in writing no later than 4:30 p.m. on March 4, 2015. Information relating to the renewal of the Heart of the City Business Improvement Area, including copies of the relevant legislation, is available for inspection during business hours (8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.), Monday through Friday at Campbell River City Hall, 301 St. Ann’s Road. Information can also be obtained by e-mailing tracy.bate@campbellriver.ca, or by calling 250-286-5705. For more information on the HoCBIAS’ business promotional scheme please contact HoCBIAS President, John Wheat at (250) 2861233. Tracy Bate, Deputy City Clerk

Not cheap, but certainly attainable. It even allows you to use a smartphone to perform as the key fob.” Acura is showing off the return of its simply beautiful NSX sports car to the market. The Porsche-loving Jerry Seinfeld was flown in to add some celebrity power but there was no — because this $150,000-plus super car speaks loudly for itself. It will be powered by a new Honda V6 mated to a ninespeed dual clutch transmission, assisted greatly by three electric motors — one for each of the front wheels and another to add torque while the turbos get up to speed. Interesting that Honda should be getting back into F1 racing; now it features hybrid power plants! Ford is teasing showgoers with a stunning new 600-horsepower Ford GT, which will more than likely have a price sticker similar to that of the NSX.

The engine features direct injection technology and should vastly improve fuel economy.

BOOMERS & Beyond What you should know about the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) Planning for retirement? Here’s what you need to know before completing your Service Canada pension application. You’re eligible for a pension if you’re 60 years of age or older

and you’ve paid at least one contribution to the Canada Pension Plan. If you are under 65 and are disabled when your pension comes into force, it could be converted into a disability benefit. The amount of your

pension is based on the amount of your contributions and the number of years you contributed. To offset a decline in revenue, years during which your earnings were low could be excluded from the

calculation, especially if you raised your children as the primary caregiver. In March 2014, the average payment for a new beneficiary when applying at 65, the normal retirement age, was $611.85 per month. You can apply at age 60, but your pension will be reduced. Similarly, your

pension will be increased if you apply later than at age 65. The best time to apply for your pension depends on your health, your savings, and your retirement plan. You can also split your pension with your spouse to reduce income taxes. Tools are available on the

Service Canada website at www.servicecanada.gc.ca to help you make the best choices. You can apply online on the Service Canada website or download the forms to send in by mail. You will receive your first payment approximately eight weeks after submitting your application.

Is a TFSA right for me? By Glen Clark, Sun Life Financial It’s a common question. RSP or TFSA? When I get my OAP and my CPP and then change my RRSP into a RRIF, what is best to avoid sending it all to the CCRA? Too many acronyms in the financial world, don’t you think? A Tax Free Savings Account is still a new concept, and many people don’t understand what it is. You can be sure, though, that there is no single right strategy for all investors. That’s why it’s wise to look at your plan frequently, at least annually, with your advisor and make sure it’s doing

what you need it to do. Make sure you are benefiting when it comes to that word we dread: TAXES. There are many ways to align your portfolio with tax advantages. If you don’t review it, you could be missing out on tax saving strategies, or engaging in the wrong type of investment. A TFSA is especially great for those who like to save for a certain purchase or want to have accessible money that is also working for them. And it’s TFSA season, as well as RRSP season - the perfect time of year to do that financial review!

Prescriptions filled.

Peace of mind included.

Your savings. Your choice. With a Tax-Free Savings Account – you have options. You can save up to $5,500* a year that grows tax-free. It’s part of a complete financial plan. Talk to me today. I can help. Glen Clark Tel: 778-346-0441 glen.clark@sunlife.com www.sunlife.ca/glen.clark 1105 Ironwood Street Campbell River, BC V9W 5L6 *Effective January 1, 2013, the TFSA contribution limit is $5,500. The $5,000 TFSA contribution limit will still apply to all years prior to 2013.

DEATHS

1981 - 2015

A wonderful, generous heart stopped beating Jan. 17. Our much beloved son, Jordan, passed away, accidentally. He treasured his family, his mom and dad Penny and Ted, his brother Jamie, Uncle Jim, his Grandma Peggy, his Grand Jo-Anne and his beloved dog, Odysseus (Ody). Also, left to mourn are his girlfriend Tanya, Brycon, his Aunt Jane, Uncle Dave, cousins Amanda, Andrew and Tony and their families, his second cousins, great-aunts and uncles and many friends. Jordan was predeceased by his Grandpa Jack, his Poppa Bill and his Nana Valerie. Jordan loved creating electronic music, some of which has been played on radio stations throughout Canada and can be listened to on Soundcloud. He loved DJing as Doc Loveless. He started locally with Wired 4 Sound, Greyzone and Redeye Jedi. We thank his many special friends who shared his love for music and enriched his life. A Celebration of Jordan’s life will be held at 2 pm on Sunday, February 1st at the Eagle’s Hall, Campbell River. As Jordan was a collector and lover of ball caps, we ask that you wear one to his celebration in his memory if you wish. We look forward to meeting all of Jordan’s friends. Donations in Jordan’s memory may be made to the Campbell River SPCA. We are so thankful for all the love and support we’ve received and would like Jordan’s friends to call or come by the house and share their stories of our wonderful son.
