Panel will release its report regarding the cause of the Aug. 4, 2014 Mount Polley tailings storage facility breach today (Friday, Jan. 30.)
After sharing the report with the Williams Lake and Soda Creek Indian Bands, and the Ministry of Energy and Mines, the panel will post the
report on its website at 9:30 a.m., followed by a presentation at the legislature library in Victoria from 9:35 to 10:30 a.m. Media in Williams

Sky is the limit for new aerial technology Continued From Page A1 There are so many things his machinery can be used for, he said. “People are using them in agriculture now. They are starting to herd cattle with them, monitoring crops, all kinds of things.” The drones are GPSbased so a rancher could sit in the living room, with a laptop, program four drones to go out and fly a certain pattern through the field to herd or look for cattle in a certain area. “I haven’t heard of
anyone doing it here or seen it first-hand,” Ruttan said. He also thinks the technology would be an affordable option for Search and Rescue. He named his company Star Air Vision because his grandfather, Charles Ruttan, was one of three founders of Star Air Service in Alaska in 1932, which later reformed to Alaska Airlines. His father was also a pilot with a private airplane and his parents owned a travel agency in Nanaimo. Ruttan has an aircraft maintenance engineer diploma from
BCIT. “I worked on the island rebuilding a Bell 206,” he said. He graduated after 9/11 when he said the industry took a downward turn so there wasn’t a lot of work because people weren’t flying and airlines were letting mechanics go. “Out of 45 guys that graduated I was the first to get a job and nine months later eight guys had been hired and let go and at the time I was the only one working in the industry.” Ruttan and his wife Maisie moved to Williams Lake from Na-

You’ve heard the expression “you’re all wet!”? It’s true that the human body is made up largely of water. Our bones are 20% water. Our brain is 70% water while our blood contains 80% water. On average we contain about 57% water and about 60 elements found in chemistry’s periodic table. Great design! Heels are susceptible to painful cracking. This is due to excessively dry skin and continually being subjected to friction and pressure. There are some good products to help control this condition. Talk to our pharmacists for advice on how to heal (sorry!) this problem. When receiving a new prescription, patients often ask their pharmacist if they can have a drink of wine or other alcoholic beverages. It does depend on the drug and very often moderate consumption will have no effect on the drug’s effect. We will ensure you are made aware of significant interactions and remind you with an auxiliary label on your prescription bottle.

Star struck astronomers Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Children and parents departed from Scout Island last Saturday a little more star struck with the cosmos after spending a couple of hours with local astronomers Lynn and Steve Capling. The sky was overcast when adults and children arrived so they gathered inside the nature centre for a presentation from Lynn. Outside in the parking lot, Steve and his helpers manned two eight-inch reflector telescopes, hoping the sky would clear. “You always have to be prepared, just in case the weather doesn’t cooperate,” Lynn said. Participants learned that the days of the week were named after the sun, moon and planets people could see at the time with the naked eye. Lynn passed around three different meteorites, each one heavier than the next. Children smiled as they balanced them in their hands. “Meteorites are older than anything on the earth,” Lynn told them. As she moved to the subject of comets, she said they’ve been watching Comet Lovejoy travel since the beginning of January this year. It was discovered on Aug. 17, 2014 by Terry Lovejoy of Australia. “We can see them better when they come closer to the sun,” she

Lynn showed a short video about star size comparison. As it came to the end viewers were reminded how small humans are in the scheme of things. The words: “You are not the centre of the universe,” flashed across the screen and the children all read it out loud. When Lynn asked if they wanted to see the video for a second time, they unanimously shouted, “yes.” Another highlight was when she handed out Oreo cookies and encouraged the children to pull them carefully apart to view the full moon. With big smiles they proceeded to eat away the icing to show the different phases of the moon. Toward the end of her presentation she said on Friday, Jan. 30, if the skies are clear they can look up and watch the star Algol.
“Between 7 and 10 p.m. you can watch it grow brighter,” she smiled. Lynn is a retired teacher and Steve is a forester. “Growing up we both loved astronomy, and then when Lynn became a teacher she taught math and earth sciences,” Steve said. The Caplings bought their first telescope because they were interested in the viewing the sky, but soon bought a second one so they could view it at the same time. The furthest they’ve travelled for astronomy so far is to Turkey where they went in 2006 to watch the solar eclipse. While the sky didn’t clear up during the twohour event held Saturday, Steve said that within ten minutes it had cleared and the people who hadn’t left yet took turns viewing the sky through the telescopes. “We saw all kinds of stuff,” he said.

Don Brown looks forward to retirement, and sleeping in Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer When Don Brown exits from Don Brown and Son Plumbing and Heating next month he doesn’t plan to leave town. “This town has been very good to us,” Don said. “We have great customers and many of them have become good friends.” Although he’s not sure what he will do with all the free time that retirement brings, besides tackling some overdue projects at home, he’s convinced he will enjoy himself. He likes fishing, but has never had the time to get on the water much. “I’m looking forward to sleeping in until 7:30 a.m., drinking coffee and watching the news,” he smiled. “I’ll enjoy not working but I will have to keep myself busy.” His wife Linda of 44 years retired from working at the hospital five years ago. Every February the Browns haul their fifth wheel to Arizona and stay there through April. While there, they golf a little bit or enjoy exploring old mine sites. Don was born in

Don Brown gets ready to retire and pass over the reins to his son, James, after founding the company, Don Brown and Son Plumbing and Heating. The two have worked together for many years and said the community has been great to them. James will carry on the family business, keeping his father’s name on the business. New Brunswick and left for the Arctic in 1977 after completing his apprenticeship with his older brother, Vincent Brown. He’d accepted a oneyear contract with what was then Northern Canada Power in Inuvik, however, he ended up staying four years. “I loved it there,” he recalled of the Arctic. Eventually he landed a plumbing and heating job at the Grandduc Mine near Stewart, B.C. after the powerhouse station engineer, who
Don had worked with in Inuvik, suggested he would be a good fit. When the mine closed in 1984, the family moved to Williams Lake because Don’s brother Len was living here. Don was hired by Burgess Plumbing and Heating where he stayed until he left and
opened his own business in 1997. Two years later his son James, who had worked at Burgess for nine years, joined him and Don changed the name of his business to Don Brown and Son Plumbing and Heating. When asked if he’ll drop the Don Brown off the company name
after his dad retires, James shook his head “no.” “Half the people call me Don anyways,” he chuckled. “I used to correct them, but I don’t anymore.” When the father and son first opened the business the local economy was suffering. As a result most of
the work they did during the first decade was out in the Chilcotin, Bella Coola, Rivers Inlet and Bella Bella. Their company serviced many logging camps, First Nations communities, guest lodges and guest ranches. “We spent more time in the Chilcotin than we did in Williams Lake,” Don said. “Bella Coola was like a second home. After I had done 105 trips there I stopped counting.” Most of their business out west came from American and European clients, James said. When the economy rebounded they began working more in Williams Lake, and have kept really busy ever since. The Browns have a daughter Linda who also lives here, and two granddaughters, one from Linda and one from James. “I love it here,” Don said. “I’ve lived here longer than anywhere else.”

Camping fees take hike Camping fees, like everything else (MSP, Hydro, ICBC), are going up. The Liberal government has announced that, as of March 15, fees to camp in provincial parks will increase $2 to $5. That might not sound like much, but it’s going to cost $23 a night to sleep on the ground in Horsefly provincial campground. Over a long weekend, that would total $69. Add on the cost of travel, food and other necessities, and camping is no longer a cheap option for young families, or young adults working minimum-wage jobs. According to the Ministry of Environment, this is the first province-wide increase in camping fees since 2010. The varied rate increases take into account local demand and economic conditions, as well as private camping availability. The province collected about $17 million from its park and recreation fees last year, while spending $22 million on direct park operating costs. A night under the stars at Horse-
fly provincial campground will go from $21 to $23 per night, while the Bull Canyon campground out west will increase from $16 to $18 per night per party. Campground fees at Bowron Lake west side and Bowron Lake circuit will stay the same at $30 and $60 per person respectively, while “front country” camping at Bowron Lake will increase from $16 to $18 per night. The campground at Lac La Hache will also is an increase from $16 to $18 per night. Meanwhile, campsite use is on the rise in B.C. since the introduction of an online reservation service. Discover Camping handled 133,000 reservations last year, nearly a 10 per cent increase over 2013. Campgrounds get families outdoors, together. They are where kids learn to respect nature, to start a fire, where they chop wood and swim in the lake, roast marshmallows and gaze at the stars. They also attract tourists, who spend money in town. – Black Press

Big sister gig an interesting learning experience This week Big Brothers Big Sisters of Williams Lake executive director Melissa Newberry and board director Sarah Jackman gave city council an update. It turns out the program has been matching children with mentors in Williams Lake for 33 years and running school-based programs for 26. Newberry told council last year 50 children were matched with 50 mentors. This year the number of children needing matches has increased to 67.

Keeping Afloat Monica Lamb-Yorski
When I moved there in the 80s I’d signed up to volunteer after a colleague told me a lock-up group home for girls needed volunteer big sisters. Because I was the big sister of five siblings growing up, I thought it would come naturally. The trouble was I did not get any training and I was pretty na-
ive. And I wasn’t a bossy big sister by any stretch. I liked arranging game nights or building forts. I wasn’t always the responsible type. My lack of big sister credentials soon became apparent. When it was my little sister Sheila’s birthday, I was inspired to encourage her artistic talents by purchasing a calligraphy pen and ink set for her. It seemed brilliant until I learned it was confiscated so she wouldn’t be able to make her own tattoos. After a few successful outings by car with my boyfriend in tow,
I ventured to take Sheila to see a movie. She chose The Clones of Bruce Lee, which was showing at one of the theatres downtown. My boyfriend didn’t want to see the movie, so I went with Sheila on my own. At one point she excused herself to go to the washroom. As the minutes unfolded I began to get nervous that she wasn’t coming back. I chastised myself for mistrusting, but after 10 minutes I had to be realistic. As I left the theatre, checked the washrooms, and nervously scanned the lobby, I had to admit
she was gone. In tears I asked the theatre manager if I could borrow his phone and quickly called the group home. “I’m really sorry, but Sheila’s taken off,” I sobbed. A few days later she was found and returned to the home. It turned out she had arranged to meet her brother downtown and run away. All these years later I wonder what happened to Sheila. I hadn’t thought about her for a long time until Tuesday night. Monica Lamb-Yorski is a staff writer with the Tribune/Weekend Advisor.

Wolf kill last hope for mountain caribou When the B.C. government last resorted to shooting wolves from helicopters in the 1980s, an emotional public outcry forced a retreat. In the B.C. tradition, sensationseeking urban media and protesters led the way. An outraged reporter named Pamela Martin marched a BCTV crew off the road near Fort St. John to expose this presumed crime against nature. With a metre of snow and temperatures dipping to -40, they didn’t get far, but public sentiment was aroused enough for politicians to overrule wildlife biologists. This winter, while snow reveals the wolves’ location from the air, the choppers and rifles are out again. And my heart goes out to the biologists and First Nations hunters who face this grim task. The South Selkirk mountain caribou herd, which ranges between B.C., Idaho and Washington, has been the target of intensive conservation efforts by governments on both sides of the border. Six of the remaining 18 animals now wear radio collars. There were 46 in 2009, only 27 by 2012, and wolves have killed two more since last spring. Targeted hunting and trapping haven’t been sufficient, so up to 24 grey wolves are to be shot from the air before the snow melts. There are seven caribou herds in the South Peace, with the Graham herd the largest at about 700. It’s the control group, left to fend for itself as a measure of wolf removal for the rest. The Burnt Pine herd is down to one bull, effective-

ly extinct. The province and Treaty 8 First Nations are working on a plan to kill 120-160 wolves in that region. It’s long been accepted that resource roads, logging and recreational trail use have increased herd disruption and predator access through what would otherwise be seamless bush and deep snow. Snowmobiles and even backcountry skiers can shift the balance. Smithers-area outdoor enthusiasts are currently being urged to stay away from the Telkwa Mountains, where the caribou herd is down to fewer than 20 animals. Local hunting and snowmobile clubs have observed a ban on motorized travel since 2003, but of course there will always be yahoos who chase animals for fun. A mountain caribou recovery plan was implemented in 2007, protecting 2.2 million hectares from logging and road-building, including most of the core habitat of the South Selkirk herd. The

Mountain caribou from the South Selkirk herd, which has fallen to 18 animals despite intensive conservation efforts. Nature Conservancy of Canada bought 550 square kilometres in that region to protect habitat. Strategies include transplanting animals from healthier to weaker herds to increase genetic diversity, and capturing and penning females with young calves to keep them from being picked off by wolves. The B.C. grey wolf population averages around 8,500, with managed hunting and trapping to protect livestock while preserving the wolf as apex predator in most of its wide range.
This context is seldom reported by Vancouver media, which mostly sees its role not as explaining issues but rather embarrassing whatever political party is in power, and providing an uncritical platform for the stop-logging-mining-energy crowd, which is seen as popular with urban viewers. Remember the spotted owl, with the fringe of its range extending into southern B.C.? Our branch-plant enviros marketed that one for years. Its core habitat is Washington and Oregon, where many sawmills were shuttered to
“save” them. Now they’re shooting invasive barred owls, which have emerged as a greater threat to spotted owls than logging. Context is important. I suppose we’ll never know what difference the 1980s wolf kill would have made if it hadn’t been shouted down for TV ratings and urban enviro-donations.

Private versus public philosophy to managing our forests As a result of the different approach to forest management there have been a number of royal commissions and a variety of legislation resulting from different government philosophies. As Ken Druska points out in his book Tie Hackers and Timber Processors a good example was with the NDP government (1972 to 1975) which purchased a number of forest companies, was involved in industry transfers and appointed Peter Pearse to conduct a Royal commission. Some of the concerns raised by Pearse were the following: The ever increasing size of fewer forest companies caused the erosion of opportunities for others to play a constructive role in the industry. Pearse suggested that “the extent of industrial consolidation has proceeded far beyond what can be considered to have been necessary to keep pace with technological change and efficiencies of scale.” He also stated that “the con-
Forest Ink Jim Hilton tinuing consolidation of the industry, and especially the right to Crown timber into a handful of large corporations is a matter of urgent public concern.” As is often the case the newly elected Social Credit government (1975 to 1991) was left to interpret and implement the findings of the commission and sold off the NDP purchases. The tension between the private and public approach can also be demonstrated through a review of the legislation changes of various forest acts and resulting tenures in the province while various governments were in power. A very useful document in “Evolution of timber tenures in British Columbia” shows 20 dif-
ferent tenures from 1870 to 2012, when they came into effect and which have been amalgamated into other kinds of tenure. The chart also shows when various acts came into force. I also find it interesting to review sources that show provincial parties that were in power during the various eras being discussed. A document written by the UBC faculty of law entitled “Forest Tenure reform in BC” is very useful for summarizing the changes and impacts of recent legislative changes. Before the 1990s provincial forest policy was focused on timber supply which increased the concerns from environmental groups and led to the passage of the Forest Practices Code Act brought in by the NDP (1991 to 2001). Staff involved in implementing this very detailed “command and control “style of regulation contended that it quashed innovation of forest practices. As a result of the concern about over regulation, the Liberals (2001 to 2013) introduced the Forest
and Range Practices Act (FRPA) which replaced the old Forest Practices Code. The idea was to go from an inflexible measures approach to a results based planning approach. Major licensees were now required to submit a Forest Stewardship Plan in which the licensees would address environmental and non timber objectives. The province also implemented a number of measures to make the forest industry more competitive. Under the Forest Revitalization Plan the largest licensees were required to return about 20 per cent of their tenures to the Crown (eight per cent was to go to First Nations, two per cent to more community forests and woodlots and the remainder auctioned off to help determine stumpage fees for some licensees). Restraints were also removed from transfer and divisions of licences along with cut controls and minimum logging requirements. BC also removed “mill appurtenancy” which required licensees to
operate mills. The forest practices board (an independent auditing arm created by statute by the Forest Practices code act) was asked to audit some of the early forest stewardship plans. Its examination of 15 plans was inconclusive. The lack of measurable goals, specificity and lack of tangible criteria was troubling as was the overly legalistic language used in the plans. The board did conduct on site inspections of the plan areas and “regularly (saw) thoughtful and innovative professional management.” “The board’s overall assessment of forest management was quite positive, but there remained concern about how to monitor and even measure the environmental impacts of forestry activities.” Jim Hilton is a professional agrologist and forester who has lived and worked in the Cariboo Chilcotin for the past 40 years. Now retired, Hilton still volunteers his skills with local community forests organizations.

the reporting. It was a thrill and a significant advancement in her career. The day she was to start the new job, everyone in her small home town was glued to the radio to hear her first report. Even if they weren’t travelling anywhere, they were excited to hear how she did as a reporter. But, there was no traffic reporter to guide the rush hour that day because the new reporter had, unbelievably, overslept
her wake-up alarm! In an absolute panic, she quickly called the radio station as soon as she got up and reported she, herself, had been in a car accident on the way to work — it was the only thing she could think of to say that could possibly explain her absence on her first day. She told the boss she was slightly injured and could not get into work. The irony became a top story that day! But, it was an unfortunate choice of “story” for her because, of course, she was working for a radio station with a nose for news so her situation soon hit the air and became an item. Her relatives heard she had been hurt
in an accident and quickly called her parents. They, in turn, started calling around to find her — at home, at the hospital, anywhere they could think of. It was a crazy and frightening time and, when they finally did find her (she had been sort of hiding away from the spotlight, trying to figure out how to get out of the huge pickle she found herself in), she felt she had to continue the ruse. She wrapped one arm in a tensor bandage and developed a significant limp to support her “injuries.” And, the best part was that she had to keep up the charade all week at work, hobbling around and wincing every time
she moved her arm! Of course, she also had to remember which arm to wrap and which leg was hurt each day to make it all believable. There were lots of questions because the police had not been notified and there were no accident reports on the morning in question. She managed to get through the next few weeks with some weak explanations and lots of subject-changing. They say one should be careful about lying but added to that, if a lie is the only way out of a difficult situation, choose a lie that doesn’t have such public involvement!

Words are powerful Nearly thirty years ago I had a major decision to make that would profoundly affect the rest of my life. I was young, full of zeal and ideals, but even then I knew that the decision was a watershed moment. So, equipped with the best of my own thinking, I approached a mentor for whom I had enormous respect and asked him what he thought. After letting me explain myself, his words to me were succinct, even abrupt. He cut to the core of my dilemma, gave his perspective, and left me with the decision. His words were not many, but they helped shape my choice, and they lived with me for nearly three decades. When all seemed uncertain I recalled my mentor’s words and they helped give me certainty. When my path was hard and I was tempted to take an easier route, his words helped me keep my resolve. Words are powerful! I can also recall hurtful words that have been spoken to me (and ones that I have spoken) that have cut deep and left scars that took years to heal. For some people, old word-wounds never seem to go away, but keep on cutting every time they are recalled. Words are powerful. The book of James says, “Likewise the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider that a great forest is set on fire by a small spark.” I believe in the power of words. I’m a preacher, for crying out loud. I think words can change lives. Ask any writer, any singer, any leader, any teacher, any coach and they’ll agree. The right

BY Chris harder words spoken the right way at the right time can make all the difference (and the wrong words can be disastrous). The bible even says our words matter as much as our work: “From the fruit of his lips a man is filled with good things as surely as the work of his hands rewards him.” Our words are powerful. But I’ve been learning a lesson about words. I have to confess that when it comes to convincing people of the things I want them to do or think, I can be a bit of a pit-bull. I have a hard time “letting go of the bone”, as it were, and I keep on talking in the hope that more words will bring about my preferred result. To try to get someone where I want them to go, I have taken the foolish route of badgering, harping, pressuring, and even getting
loud in the attempt to prove my point. It’s pointless. To borrow a quote that’s stayed with me for years:“A man convinced against his will is of his own opinion still.” So I’m learning to listen. Listening has real power, too. When we truly listen to people and make sure that they feel heard, it’s amazing how much more they are likely to hear us. And I’m learning to let go. Remember how much a painful word can stay with you, making you think about it for a long, long time? Well, it can be like that with the helpful words, too. Consider the few powerful words my mentor spoke those many years ago (they remain between him and me, but I’ll probably tell you what they were if you ask me.) And I was reminded of this again recently when one of my children quoted words that I’d spoken that had positively affected them in their decision-making. I’d had no idea they even remembered! But words are powerful like that. Again, the bible speaks to this reality, saying, “Through patience a ruler can be persuaded, and a gentle tongue can break a bone.” Translation: words spoken carefully, and left to do their work, can make a real difference over time. So here’s my big point: Words are powerful. Like an arrow on a bowstring, words can be tremendously helpful or tremendously destructive depending on how they are aimed. They also keep going long after they are set loose. So be careful, but be hopeful. Listen. Speak. Let go.

Williams Lake celebrates Scottish poet Robbie Burns
LeRae Haynes photos
Avery Lees, Gracie Lees, Celton Requarth and Camlen Requarth enjoyed the Robbie Burns Night ceremonies at the Legion on Saturday, with live music, Scottish delicacies and Highland dancing. LeRae Haynes Special to Tribune/Advisor A capacity crowd enjoyed a Robbie Burns Scottish celebration at the Legion on Saturday, with highlights that included bashed neeps, charging glasses, tipsy laird shortbread, bagpipes and spirited highland dancing. For first-time Robbie Burns celebration Master of Ceremonies Eric Sannes, donning his kilt and taking part in a birthday bash for Scotland’s beloved poet was a delight and an honour.
“My family is Scottish and I’m married to a Scottish woman; I’m a member of the Cameron clan, the 7th cousin of Alexander Graham Bell and also related to Rob Roy, so we have a long Scottish history,” he said. In his opening remarks, he explained that he visited Scotland for the first time last year. He shared a humorous poem about the English, the Scottish and a historical haggis tug-of-war. He talked tongue-incheek about the global impact of Robbie Burns, describing a hy-
brid event called Gung Haggis Fat Choy, combining Chinese New Year and Robbie Burns Day. “Although haggis is a celebratory dish, I did notice last year when I was in Scotland that haggis is widely consumed. You can buy haggisflavoured chips, haggis cologne and haggisscented tissue paper,” he joked. The ceremonies included live music by the Williams Lake Pipe Band, Celtic Connection, Doug White, Perfect Match, and featured Highland dancer Kirsten Lees. Barry Sale presented the ‘Immortal Robbie Burns’, explaining that the poet’s work has been translated into more languages around the world than either the Bible or Shakespeare. “A man of the people, he wrote 559 ballads and poems with a barbed wit and pointed pen. He speaks to us all where it hits the hardest — right in the heart. “He wrote about the history and traditions of Scotland, and was very popular with the common people. It was a time when 95 per cent of the population lived in downtrodden poverty and were controlled by the other 5 per cent. He hated that; he also hated pretension and hypocrisy,” Sale continued. He ended by asking the crowd to “charge their glasses and be upstanding” in a toast to Robbie Burns.

The Williams Lake Pipe Band brought pageantry and rousing music to the Robbie Burns celebration at the Legion on Saturday, delighting the audience with tunes like ‘Bonnie Dundee,’ ‘Steamboat’ and ‘Caste Dangerous.’ “I hope people were able to travel somewhere else when they heard the music tonight. I’ve always believed that bagpipe music disperses evil spirits; as soon as the pipes start to play something good settles over people,” Sannes explained.
“People came tonight because this has something that draws on everybody’s experiences; I bet if you went around the table you’d find that there are Scottish people in everybody’s family,” he said. “Everybody wants to have a little piece of that.”

Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Williams Lake Field Naturalist president Fred McMechan is relieved council has voted unanimously in favour of keeping the Scout Island gate locked at night. Originally Coun. Ivan Bonnell in a report to council suggested the gate be unlocked at night, but after the field naturalists learned about the suggestion when the city council agenda was posted on the city’s website Friday they called an emergen-

to find ways to mitigate disruption for the residents who live at the Dutch Point Road boat launch. Bonnell said he’d had comments from people complaining about the limited hours the Scout Island boat launch is available. As a result, his motion also directed CAO Darrell Garceau to meet with the field naturalists to discuss extending the hours when the gate is unlocked past the 8 a.m. to dusk which is presently in place. “There’s no reason to be on the lake at night in
my estimation, but for those who want to be on the lake in the early hours of the morning when the sun is up there’s an opportunity to give greater access,” Bonnell said. “Obviously that will have to be discussed with the field naturalists to see if that’s do-able.” Coun. Sue Zacharias said council has definitely heard from the public that there needs to be more access to the lake. “I would like to see the boat launch at Scout Island used more,” Zacharias said.

The gate has been there since the 1970s to protect the area from vandalism, drug dealing in the darkness and partying, he said. It is also locked because wildlife that feeds after dark and into the early hours of the morning need protection. At the council meeting Tuesday, Bonnell said he has been trying

Saturday, Jan. 31 Kangaroos host Stampeders in playoffs
Hard work pays off at CNC regionals Greg Sabatino Staff Writer With just a small number of figure skaters competing, the Williams Lake Skating Club made its presence known at the Cariboo North Central Regionals in Quesnel during the weekend. Twelve skaters from the club glided away from the competition with 14 medals and seven ribbons — a result head coach Joanne Macnair said was exceptional. “I was thrilled with the performances of every skater,” Macnair said. “They all nailed it.” Every skater from the club was awarded at least one medal. Alanna Walters skated to two gold medals (elements two and senior bronze solo dance), and won a silver medal in bronze interpretive and a bronze medal in the senior bronze women’s category. “It went really well for me,” Walters said. “I scored my personal best score in free skate and won the bronze for that, and it
Alanna Walters was my first time entering solo dance. Also getting second in interpretive is awesome for me.” Dawn Henley was first in senior silver women, first in elements three, second in intro interpretive and was awarded the senior artistic award for the best overall skater. “I felt I skated well,” Henley said. “I’ve been having good skates and went in to the competition confident and it all worked out.” Jade Johnson won a gold medal in the star five over 13 division and skated to a bronze medal in intro

She also finished fifth in elements two. Amanda Lane — who was recently invited to join the B.C. Prospects Team — finished with a gold medal in intro interpretive and two silver medals in juvenile women and elements three, respectively. The B.C. Prospects
Team is an initiative developed to track, monitor and support skaters who demonstrate the potential to become competitive figure skaters capable of achieving success at provincial, national and international levels. Minimum scores and above-average skating skills are required to be
considered for the prospect team. “It’s a really good opportunity for me,” Lane said. “Not a lot of people from our area get that chance because it’s such a small community.” Currently the CNC region has Lane and one other skater from Terrace on the B.C. Prospects Team. Annalise Hunter-Owega was first in the star four division and Georgia Jacobson won a silver medal in the star three category. Jessabelle Atkinson-Trelenberg skated to a silver medal in the star two category and Rebecca Fraser finished third in the star three division. Ryanne Jones and Emma Penner — winning her first skating medal — both put forward silver-medal results in the star three and star two categories, respectively. Kolbi Seterengen glided to a bronze medal in star two, while Nathalie Sylvain picked up a bronze medal in the star three category, and a fifth-place finish in elements one.
The Williams Lake Stampeders, after an 11-4 road win against the Lac La Hache Tomahawks Jan. 17 in its last regular season game, will begin playoffs Jan. 31 in Quesnel against the Quesnel Kangaroos. The Stampeders finished first in the East Division and first in the Central Interior Hockey League with 15 wins and one loss, while the Kangaroos amassed an eight-win, seven-loss and oneovertime-loss record for second in the East. The best-of-three series will finish in Williams Lake at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex with game two on Feb. 7 at 7:30 p.m. and with game three, if needed, on Feb. 8 at 1:30 p.m.

TIPS FROM THE CRD
Carbon Monoxide Safety
Often called the silent killer, carbon monoxide is an invisible, odorless, colorless gas created when fuels (such as gasoline, wood, coal, natural gas, propane, oil, and methane) burn incompletely. In the home, heating and cooking equipment that burn fuel can be sources of carbon monoxide. • CO alarms should be installed in a central location outside each sleeping area and on every level of the home and in other locations where required by applicable laws, codes or standards. For the best protection, interconnect all CO alarms throughout the home. When one sounds, they all sound. • Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for placement and mounting height. • Choose a CO alarm that has the label of a recognized testing laboratory. • Call your local fire department’s non-emergency number to find out what number to call if the CO alarm sounds. • Test CO alarms at least once a month; replace them according to the manufacturer’s instructions. • If the audible trouble signal sounds, check for low batteries. If the battery is low, replace it. If it still sounds, call the fire department. • If the CO alarm sounds, immediately move to a fresh air location outdoors or by an open window or door. Make sure everyone inside the home is accounted for. Call for help from a fresh air location and stay there until emergency personnel. • If you need to warm a vehicle, remove it from the garage immediately after starting it. Do not run a vehicle or other fueled engine or motor indoors, even if garage doors are open. Make sure the exhaust pipe of a running vehicle is not covered with snow. • During and after a snowstorm, make sure vents for the dryer, furnace, stove, and fireplace are clear of snow build-up. • A generator should be used in a well-ventilated location outdoors away from windows, doors and vent openings. • Gas or charcoal grills can produce CO — only use outside.

Williams Lake cross-country skiers Sean Seabourne (back from left), Julianne Trelenberg, Jessabelle Atkinson-Trelenberg (front from right), Livia Seabourne, Jake Sutton, Connor Sutton and Cooper Seabourne competed Saturday at the Hallis Lake Loppet in Quesnel.
Skiers see results at loppet Greg Sabatino Staff Writer A team of eight cross country skiers and two coaches from the Williams Lake Cross Country Ski Club raced to strong results Saturday in Quesnel at the Hallis Lake Loppet. Williams Lake skiers, in a field of roughly 70 competitors, brought home three first-place finishes, one second-place finish and a fourth- and fifthplace result in the classic skiing only event. Cooper Seabourne started things off in the five-and-under age category snapping up a gold medal in the onekilometre event. Jessabelle AtkinsonTrelenberg followed
that up with a firstplace finish in the twoand-a-half kilometre race, while Livia Seabourne was just behind in second in the six- to seven-year-old age group. Jake Sutton, meanwhile, was fourth to the finish in the eightto 10-year-old fivekilometre event, with Connor Sutton taking fifth in the 11- to 13-year-old five-kilometre category. In the adult events Sean Seabourne and Darcy Lazzarin raced the 16-kilometre and 32-kilometre distances, respectively. Julianne Trelenberg was first in the female eight-kilometre race. Coaches Rob Sutton and Lisa Seabourne helped organize and
cheer on the kids and were pleased with the results. “The rain stopped the night before and the trails were regroomed early in the morning before the 9:30 a.m. start time so conditions were pretty good,” Rob said, who heads up the Jackrabbits program at Bull Mountain. “Cross country skiing is a great winter sport the entire family can enjoy.” Lessons for kids take place at Bull Mountain Ski Area just north of Williams Lake for kids aged four to 12 between December and March twice a week. “This season we have 40 kids participating in the Bunny/Jackrabbit/ Track Attack ski pro-
gram,” he said. “We also have a new Junior Racing Program this year where skiers compete in various races throughout the winter. We’ve had some very good results and are hoping this new program continues to grow next year and beyond.” For more information about the Bunny/ Jackrabbit/Track Attack program or if you’re interested in joining next season contact Rob, the youth development co-ordinator and Jackrabbits head coach, at skijackrabbit@gmail.com.

Under these newly developed integrated pest management plans, the following selective methods are proposed and may be used alone or in combination, depending on particular local circumstances: • Integrated vegetation control measures that include mechanical, manual, cultural, prevention, biological and herbicide. • Trade names of herbicides that may be included as part of these integrated pest management plans: Vantage XRT, Roundup, Vision Max, Sightline, Clearview, Milestone, Arsenal, Navius VM, Escort, Tordon 22K, Tordon 101, Garlon XRT, Vanquish, Overdrive, Banvel, Telar, 2,4-D amine, MCPA, Karmex, Truvist, Esplanade SC, Transline, Lontrel 360 and Chontrol Peat Paste. • Active ingredients in these products are: Aminopyralid, metsulfuron-methyl, diflunfenzopyr, MCPA, Picloram, 2,4-D, Chlorsulfuron, Triclopyr, Dicamba, Diuron, Aminocyclopyrachlor, Indaziflam, Imazapyr, Clopyralid, Glyphosate and Chondrostereum purpureum which is a biological natural-occurring fungus used to inhibit regrowth when applied to cut stumps. The proposed effective date for these IPMPs for Spectra Energy’s BC Pipeline, Field Services and Midstream business units is June 15, 2015 to June 14, 2020. Diagrams, maps and the IPMP documents are available and may be viewed by contacting the appropriate office and contact person below: • Dan Tisseur, Spectra Energy, 3985 - 22nd Ave. Prince George BC, V2N 1B7, 250-960-2034 • Angus Dickie, Spectra Energy, Mile 301 Alaska Highway, Fort Nelson, BC V0C 1R0, 250-233-6385 Any person wishing to contribute information about a proposed treatment site, relevant to the development of these two IPMPs may send copies of the information to the address above within 30 days of the publication of this notice.
