Busy Douglas corridor needs active transit fix: residents Daniel Palmer News staff

Members of Mount View Colquitz Community Association (MVCCA) are hosting an allday open house to get people thinking about pedestrian and cycling-friendly infrastructure in the Douglas corridor. Dubbed Uptown-Douglas Corridor: From Nowhere Special to Someplace Great, the all-day event is meant to foster discussion through small group dialogue sessions and presentations, said Susan Belford, MVCCA president. “Mount View Colquitz represents three Saanich neighbourhoods, including the Saanich core,” Belford said. “Our community could be a wonderful example of the walkable city if there was better infrastructure to allow cyclists and pedestrians to safely cross and connect with the many major roads and arterials that surround and bisect the area.” Bedford said the “visionary” event will be useful as the District embarks on local area plan updates in March and April. Coun. Vic Derman will also discuss his vision of the future in a presentation entitled “The Natural City.” “Our community association is very strongly impacted by major roads and highways,” she said. “We felt because BC Transit, Saanich and the CRD have all done different initiatives looking at the Saanich core, we thought it would be good to stimulate some conversation.” The event takes place at the Garth Homer Auditorium, 813 Darwin Ave. on Feb. 21 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more information, visit mountviewcolquitz.ca.

COMMUNITY NEWS IN BRIEF

Spyware nixed at municipal hall

Interim Chief Administrative Officer Andy Laidlaw asked staff to disable the use of a controversial employee monitoring software program on Jan. 20, while the District awaits a report on its use from the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner of B.C. In a statement released Monday, Laidlaw said the use of the Spector 360 program, which had been installed on a computer used by Mayor Richard Atwell and several others, “has become a distraction for Mayor and Council from its primary role in providing governance and service to their taxpayers.” Laidlaw said the District may reconsider the use of the program after April 2015, when privacy commissioner Elizabeth Denham is due to issue a report on its use by municipal and public bodies. “Saanich is facing many strategic issues and needs to move forward in its business decisions. I am hopeful this will bring some closure to this issue for Saanich while recognizing this issue of security and privacy will continue to resonate and be subject of public debate,” Laidlaw said.

Athlete flexes academic muscle on gender equality Travis Paterson News staff

One of Saanich’s most elite athletes wants to literally re-write the history books. Triathlete Sara Gross, a two-time Ironman winner in 2014 (Florianopolis, Brazil and Mount Tremblant, Que.) is flexing her academic muscle with a doctorate in women’s history from the University of Edinburgh. In addition to her gruelling training schedule, Gross is launching into a four-part series Pets die after on gender equality in triathlon, and how it Old East Road fire relates to other sports, which will be posted Saanich fire crews on her blog, saragross.blogspot.ca. responded to a residence “It’s interesting what I’ve found: that triathfire in the 6000-block of lon is often considered the leading for sports Old East Rd. on Monday gender equality,” Gross said. “But (triathlon) afternoon, just north of Elk still has gender equality issues that need to Lake. be pushed, especially if it’s going be a leader.” Fire crews battled heavy Her first post, called Triathlon: A Sport of black smoke and fire.

“Becoming the first sport to be (100 per cent) equal in all ways will in the long run: improve diversity in our sport, help increase the quantity and quality of female role models for girls and provide a nurturing environment for our daughters.” -Sara Gross

“Triathlon has a strong history of gender equality, so in my third post I’ll talk about the advantages of being a sport of equality: What’s the point of this, and why do we want this equality,” Gross said. When Gross looked at the lopsided inequalities other women’s sports, it became clear to her how further ahead triathlon really is in terms of gender equality. “At the end of the Ironman season, the top 35 women and 50 men in the pro points standings qualify for Kona,” Gross said. “There’s a lot of pro men who aren’t in favour of the numbers difference.” Ironman CEO Andrew Messick told report-

ers in a 2014 press conference that Ironman would be looking into equal spots at the Kona event for this season. “The women we talked to were not at all focused on the number, they just wanted it to be the same,” he said. They didn’t particularly care if it was 55 and 55, or 40 and 40, or 30 and 30. They just thought that as a matter of fundamental fairness that the number should be the same. So we’re going to look at that for 2015, but that might result in fewer men.” Gross is also advocating for race improvements wishes to see at Ironman events, though they won’t keep her from competing. Overcrowding of men catching up to the pro women in the bike portion of Ironman races, in particular, is a problem. “In Brazil you have 2,000 fit (age group) men, many of them more than capable of keeping up with the pro women,” she said. The problem with that overcrowding means athletes can use one another’s slipstreams to gain valuable seconds while cycling, which is illegal under Ironman rules.

OUR VIEW

‘Road Boss’ remembered Last October, 100 past and present riders with the Canadian Cancer Society’s Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock headed out on a ride in dedication to a man who volunteered countless hours to the Tour. Battling cancer himself at the time, 20-year Saanich police officer Mike Lawless, joined by his wife Krista, emerged from their Central Saanich home to a wall of riders sporting the colourful Tour de Rock team jerseys. The group formed a collective ring of support around the couple. Lawless, whose dedication to the fight against pediatric cancer proved a catalyst for many riders who rode the Tour after him, was cheered on by those who benefitted from his support over his years. It was, therefore, a cruel irony last month when Lawless was felled by a disease he sacrificed so much, for so long to beat. The 44-year-old father of two, well known among the Tour de Rock community as the Road Boss, was gone. At his celebration of life, held Jan. 16 on the ground floor of Langford’s Westin Bear Mountain Resort because seating for 400 in a booked room proved too small for the crowd, Mike’s many friends, family and colleagues gathered to pay their respects amid hugs and plenty of tears. The man’s unwavering dedication to others and his countless hours of volunteerism, benefitting some who will never know his name, cannot be measured only in time. For people like Mike Lawless, it is the moments of shared silence across the communities he has touched, that truly tell the tale. Communities and individuals around Greater Victoria continue to raise funds and contribute in other ways to dozens of other excellent community building and humanitarian causes. But when the call goes out for a new batch of riders to tackle the 2015 Tour de Rock – peace officers and media can ride just once – we predict the memory of Lawless’ efforts, dedication and support will prompt his former teammates to talk it up to their colleagues and do their best to support them in the same way.

about the need for foundation skills, which he and others agreed remain vital to success. The issue seems to be how to instil those basics while avoiding the disengagement of students who see school as irrelevant to their lives. Education Minister Peter Fassbender announced at the forum that the province is about to unveil new curriculum that moves toward individual learning for all students. And he said there will be a series of experiments conducted at yet-to-beidentified B.C. schools to pioneer new models of learning. BCTF president Jim Iker sat stoically through the proceedings, where speakers described integrating community groups and businesses directly with schools. That’s underway here, with trades training in particular. Iker’s record on adaptation is clear from his own career. The only school where he actually taught was in the northwest B.C. village of Topley, and it closed in 2010 due to a long-term decline in rural students. By 2001 Iker had left the classroom to work for the Burns Lake teacher union local, which the BCTF continues to staff eight years after that school district and others disappeared through amalgamation.

Government obliged to spy being hacked by random third parties. This raises the question : Which nanny corporation directed your “potential for nanny state” view? Criminal acts of terrorism are far-reaching, global and deadly because criminals use phones and the internet to communicate, recruit, promote propaganda, spread ideology, transfer funds, buy weapons, coordinate killings – the list goes on. If governments have the ability to track this activity, they have an obligation to do so. As for Edward Snowden, we haven’t heard a peep from him about spying and the endless other illegal activity of his adopted country, Russia. J. Holsten Saanich

Re: Wolves cull a difficult task, B.C. Views (Jan. 28) I don’t often agree with Tom Fletcher but he got it right this time. It is so easy to get outraged about killing wolves. After all, they look an awful like our cute pet dogs. It also helps drum up funding support for certain groups. But the relationships between wolves, caribou and habitat are not simple. Nor is the decision to kill wolves an easy one to make. But, in the long-term, if caribou herds can get a reprieve from predation now, they will build up their numbers enough that they can continue to survive when the wolf numbers rebound. We want ecosystems with both wolves and caribou, and sometimes that requires doing something hard. W. A. Bergerud Saanich

Re: Spy measures are worrying, Our View (Jan. 30) Your Jan. 30th editorial is headed: “Spy measures are worrying.” Not possible, since worrying requires a sentient being, with a brain capable of memory, analysis and worrying. The suitable adjective is “worrisome.” You should know the difference. Kindly pause next time you choose the adjective. M. Meagher Saanich

Dolinsky’s Adelaide Avenue home was polluted by home heating oil leaking from a neighbour’s underground tank in March 2012. Like any homeowner, Dolinsky was responsible for the clean-up costs on her property. “I had a hell of a time navigating through the bureaucracy of the B.C. Ministry of Environment and the District of Saanich, and was left wondering why I had to do all this on my own,” says Dolinsky, who took the previous homeowner to court as her only means of recovering clean-up costs on her property. (A judge is set to rule on the summary trial findings sometime this year.) “The homeowner is responsible for everything and there’s no insurance for an oil spill,” she says. On Thursday (Feb. 5), a lack of homeowner insurance for oil spills is just one of the issues on the table during a forum organized by local MLAs Rob Fleming and Lana Popham. Panelists include Coun. Dean Murdock, Tim Pringle, former president of Partnership for Water Sustainability of B.C.; environmental lawyer Ethan Krindle; Colquitz River steward Dorothy Chambers; former Times Colonist reporter Judith Lavoie; and B.C. Hazmat Management Ltd.’s Dave Rogers. “A lot of people think underground oil tanks are the problem, but it’s more about overground tanks and people not reporting

leaks and spills,” says Rogers, who has cleaned up hundreds of home heating oil spills in the last three years alone. B.C. Hazmat Management, a private company, also discovers many home heating oil spills as a result of copper thefts, Rogers said. “We had a call on Christmas Day last year when thieves ripped a two-foot line from the furnace of an unoccupied home. It caused $18,000 in environmental clean-up costs. That’s the kind of thing people need to be aware of that’s going on out there,” Rogers said. Fleming said provincial regulations governing oil spills aren’t preventative, which leaves homeowners to potentially face shocking liabilities from oil contamination of their property. Dolinsky, who plans to attend Thursday’s forum, said the B.C. Ministry of Environment and municipalities need to do a better job regulating the home heating oil industry. A simple step, she said, would be to regulate companies that check for underground tanks and make those companies liable if tanks are later found on a property. “I’m pretty well run out of money,” she said. “I’ve been borrowing money from my family. A few times I wanted to call it quits, but then I’m stuck either way.” Rogers recommends homeowners with heating oil tanks spend $100 annually on an inspection and filter cleaning. ‘I have oil heat at my home. These tanks are made to last 15 years. And when they leak, it’s devastating to the environment,” he said. The oil spill forum takes place at the Spectrum school theatre (957 Burnside Rd. West) at 7 p.m,

One New Year’s resolution we’ll all be making. A full disposal ban on kitchen scraps at Hartland landfill takes effect January 1, 2015. The ban will divert compostable items like vegetables, meat, bones, grains, dairy products, fruit and soiled paper that currently take up thirty percent of the landfill. At the same time, diverted kitchen scraps will significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions and will be processed into beneficial compost. So contact your waste hauler or municipality directly, plan for collection options and make a note on your calendar. Then we can all look forward to a happy, more sustainable New Year!

Canada Day bomb plot trial begins Sheila Reynolds Black Press

A Surrey couple planted homemade pressure-cooker bombs outside the B.C. legislature on Canada Day 2013 knowing they would kill and maim people, Crown prosectors allege. Monday (Feb. 2) marked the first day of the trial for John Nuttall and Amanda Korody, who are charged with making or possessing an explosive device, conspiracy to commit an indictable offence and knowingly facilitating terrorist activity. The case is being heard by a 14-person jury in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver. The Crown contends the RCMP investigation into Nuttall’s and Korody’s activities began in February 2013 and continued – with the involvement of undercover officers – until the pair’s arrest in 2013. Prosecutor Peter Eccles alleged the couple planted explosives in two garden containers outside the legislature timed to go off at 10 a.m. and 10:15 a.m. on a day when thousands of people were expected to be there. The blast, said Eccles, would have sent shrapnel flying 150 metres and would have hurt and killed bystanders. The bombs did not explode. “The police made sure of that,” said Eccles. “If they (the accused) had their way, they would have gone off.” Eccles said the police investigation included two undercover operatives: one posing as an Arab businessman sympathetic to extremist jihad and another who had access to weapons and explosives, to “test the resolve” of the accused. The bombs, the jury heard, were

planted at the legislature at 5 a.m. on July 1. The Crown said the court will hear audio recordings and see video surveillance that will be central to the case. In the audio recordings, said Eccles, Nuttall can be heard praising the Boston Marathon bombings of April 2013, calling the accused in that incident martyrs. Nuttall allegedly says he wants something bigger than that event and plans to build similar pressure-cooker bombs filled with nails. Eccles said the Crown doesn’t contend the pair was a sleeper terrorist cell or that al-Qaeda even knew anything about them, but that they acted on their own.

“The Canadian government wants... to say ‘oh look, we’re doing our job, look at these terrorists’.” - Maureen Smith, mother of Jeremy Nuttall

The two allegedly built the bombs in a hotel in Delta days before they set off to Victoria. Two days before Canada Day, one of the undercover officers advised Nuttall and Korody to ensure they weren’t being pressured, that they’re “acting from the heart.” They assure him, the Crown says, that they want to do jihad and want the mission to proceed. In their opening statements, defence lawyers told jurors intention and context will be key in the case. Nuttall’s lawyer, Marilyn Sandford, quoted from a conver-

sation between the accused, where Nuttall warns Korody they can’t “screw up” again or their affiliate (who’s actually an undercover agent) will “turn from a real nice guy to a monster.” Sandford told the jury to pay attention to her client’s relationship with the undercover operatives, as well as watch Nuttall’s demeanour. Mark Jette, Korody’s lawyer, said jurors must listen to how his client became “ensnared” in the police investigation, and noted her health and use of Gravol and methadone for drug addiction would be touched upon as part of the evidence. Nuttall’s mom, Maureen Smith, told media both her son and Korody have serious disabilities and are mentally incapable with conspiring to concoct such a crime. “It’s all made up, it’s just horrendous,” she said, alleging it’s a government setup. “The Canadian government wants... to say ‘oh look, we’re doing our job, look at these terrorists’.” Smith said she still maintains Nuttall is “100 per cent innocent.” Nuttall, clean cut and wearing a suit, appeared upbeat in court, smiling and waving to his mother and grandmother. Korody, wearing a green shawl on her head, appeared meek. Smith said when her son converted to Islam, he spoke with her about jihad. “He said he could never kill an innocent person,” Smith said. “I know that in my heart... this proves to me it’s a joke.” Nuttall and Korody pleaded not guilty earlier last month. The trial is scheduled for 18 weeks and is set to resume Feb. 10. editor@saanichnews.com

Do you suffer from Allergic Eyes Do you abhor the idea of Victoria’s annual flower count? Many Canadians are looking forward to the end of winter, but others may dread the spring for one red, itchy, watery reason: ocular allergies! Spring is often the beginning of the eye allergy cycle, when nature turns up the volume and tree pollen hangs heavily in the air. Some people suffer from eye allergies year-round, caused by a host of other culprits, including grass pollen, ragweed, and a variety of food, pet and chemical irritants. Allergic reactions are triggered by the body’s immune system in its best effort to protect your eyes from injury. Your immune system can’t tell the difference between harmless substances (like pollens) and harmful intruders (like bacteria), so it overreacts by producing allergy symptoms. These annoying symptoms, www.oakbayoptometry.com including swelling, hives, itching, watering, Dr. Neil Paterson burning and light sensitivity, can even result in Dr. Suzanne Sutter tissue damage or impaired vision.

Jeneece Place celebrates milestone in community Donations still needed for vital 10-bedroom ‘home away from home’ Don Descoteau Black Press

A facility created to allow out-of-town families to stay nearby while their children receive medical treatment at Victoria General Hospital celebrated its third birthday Tuesday in View Royal. Jeneece Place – named for energetic young fundraiser Jeneece Edroff, who turned 21 the same day – has been a home away from home for more than 730 families since it opened in 2012. Most come from Vancouver Island, but some have come from further reaches to have a place of respite while their children undergo operations, rehabilitation services or recover from accidents. Linda Hughes, president and CEO of the Children’s Health Foundation of Vancouver Island, which built and operates the 10-bedroom, fully outfitted house, said she has been surprised at the breadth of circumstances in which families that stay at the home find themselves in. “The families are amazing, they’re people who maybe have a big family, maybe it’s a first child or a fifth, and they come from as far north as you can go,” she said. Over the three years Jeneece Place has been welcoming families, one of the more common scenarios for guests has been the birth of a premature baby and/or the need for their infant to stay in the neonatal intensive care unit, Hughes said. “I don’t think anyone understood that big trend.” Another trend that has emerged, she said, is the use of the facility by parents who live in town, as a place to perhaps freshen up or rest when their child is in hospital for tests or their baby has to stay overnight. “It’s a refuge for them.” Hughes, who has been with the foundation for about a year and a half, said any conversation about the value of Jeneece Place comes around to the amazing young woman who started it all. “Thank God that Jeneece trusted her instincts, that because of her own personal experience that this was a much needed (project) and would be a very successful endeavour,” she said.

“She trusted what she knew as a childhood (patient) and the community trusted her.” Edroff, who still comes to the house regularly to help out, on top of her fundraising activities, was taken out for a special birthday meal with her parents as part of the anniversary celebration. Speaking of fundraising, efforts are ongoing to keep the house running. It costs $350,000 per year to operate and is funded by donations from the community. The Children’s Health Foundation of Vancouver Island accepts donations and issues tax receipts where applicable. To donate or find more information on Jeneece Place, visit childrenshealthvi.org or call 250-519-6977. editor@saanichnews.com

Help Prevent Heart Attacks with Vitamin C and Lysine Powder W. Gifford-Jones, MD

hy is heart attack the number one killer in this country? Ninety-nine percent of doctors say it’s due to atherosclerosis (hardening of arteries) and that cholesterol lowering drugs are the primary way to treat it. But I suggest cardiologists have closed minds and are ignoring facts that could save thousands of North Americans from coronary attack. Vitamin C is required to manufacture healthy collagen, the glue that holds coronary cells together, just like mortar is needed for bricks. Lysine, like steel rods in cement, makes collagen stronger. Two-time Nobel Prize winner, Dr. Linus Pauling reported twenty-five years ago it takes a mere 10 milligrams to prevent scurvy, but several thousand to prevent heart attack. Williams Stehbens, Professor of Anatomy at Wellington University in New Zealand, proved Pauling was right. Stebhens’ research showed that coronary arteries closest to the heart are under the greatest pressure. This causes collagen to fracture resulting in the formation of a blood clot and death.

I also believed the research of Pauling and Stehbens is irrefutable. Now, the work of Dr. Bush has convinced me my decision was prudent. But to take large doses of vitamin C and lysine requires swallowing many pills daily. It’s a tall order for those who dislike swallowing one pill. So for several years I’ve been trying to find a company that would manufacture a combination of vitamin C and lysine powder. Now Medi-C Plus™ is available at health food stores and specialty pharmacies. The dosage for the Medi-C Plus combination is one flat scoop mixed with water or juice with breakfast and the evening meal. Those at greater risk should take one flat scoop three times a day. This column does not recommend that those taking CLDs should stop them. That is a decision that can only be made by patients and doctors. As for me – I bet my life on vitamin C and lysine! I turned 90 this year.

Dr. Sydney Bush, an English researcher, has now proven that vitamin C can reverse atherosclerosis. Bush took retinal photographs, then started his patients on high doses of vitamin C and lysine. One year later additional pictures showed atherosclerosis had regressed in retinal arteries. Sixteen years ago following my own coronary attack, cardiologists claimed it was sheer madness for me to refuse cholesterol-lowering drugs. Instead, I decided to take high doses of vitamin C plus lysine with breakfast and the evening meal. I knew that Dr. Graveline, a physician and NASA astronaut, had twice developed transient global amnesia from taking cholesterol lowering drugs (CLDs). I was also aware that patients have died from CLDs. Others have developed kidney, liver and muscle complications.

Top secret Japanese submarine was one of the most remarkable advances in naval weaponry to come out of the Second World War Those readers who follow maritime news will likely have read last month about the rediscovery and identification of a sunken Second World War-era submarine cable repair ship off the coast of Oahu, Hawaii. The USS Kailua made quite a few headlines when she was found 800 metres beneath the surface, resting largely intact despite the fact that she had been deliberately torpedoed and sunk by the American Navy in 1946. What got less coverage was the

fact that in the same immediate vicinity were two sunken Japanese submarines. One was a mini-sub and the other was one of the most remarkable advances in naval weaponry to come out of the Second World War: an I-400 class submarine. Japan focused her wartime energies on the Pacific theatre, of course, and therefore was quite specialized in terms of what technology she advanced. Very little was spent on terrestrial combat, but air and naval

needing to be refueled. This capacity remains unmatched to this day by any diesel-electric submarine. It also had an extremely advanced rubberized coating designed to keep it relatively undetectable by Allied sonar. So, why isn’t the I-400 class better known? Quite simply, it’s because they never had a chance to participate in the war. I-400 and I-401 were on their way to their first engagement at the Ulithi Atoll in August 1945, but before they arrived the war ended with the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Their Seiran bombers were pushed into the sea to escape American capture, but the two subs were seized on Aug. 28, 1945 and returned to Sasebo. There a number of Japanese subs were sunk, including the I-402, but I-400 and I-401 were then sailed to Hawaii for the American Navy to examine. A year later, they were deliberately torpedoed and sank to the bottom of the sea. There was great concern that the Soviets might get their hands on this technology and use it to their advantage in the nascent Cold War. The remains of I-401 were found again in 2005 and those of the I-400 in August 2013, close to the location of the USS Kailua. A single Seiran plane survives today in the National Air and Space Museum in Washington D.C., the only visible remnant of a unique piece of largely forgotten naval history. ••• Kate Humble is an historian and the Education Curator for the Maritime Museum of B.C.

Shoreline helps out new moms Don Descoteau Black Press

There’s plenty of excitement among a group of Grade 6 students gathered in the Shoreline Community Middle School library. The students, part of the leadership-focused Youth Creating Inclusion club at the school in View Royal, are buzzing around three wooden boxes. The containers are filled with newborn baby clothes, niceties for new moms and supplies to start them off once they leave the maternity ward at Victoria General Hospital. “It’s nice to feel we’re a part of something that makes a difference in someone’s life,” says Krystina Kearney, one of the youth who worked on the Let’s Go Home project overseen by Shoreline educational assistant Emily Urbaniak. The project saw students go out on lunch hours to request donated items from area merchants and community groups, then spend a pro-D day hand-

sanding and painting the roughly 30 boxes assembled by volunteers with Campbell Construction. Each box is decorated with its own design, making them unique to their eventual owners. The boxes, due to be delivered by the students to VGH tomorrow (Feb. 5), contain everything from “onesies,” bottles, baby formula and socks and mittens for the infants, to hand-knitted toques and scarves for the moms. Shoreline principal Nadine Naughton, who moved over from Gordon Head middle school to start this school year, brought the Youth Creating Inclusion concept with her. The goal, she says, is to get young people talking about “doing the right thing because it’s the right thing to do,” about altruism, practising kindness and about the social justice requirements of living in harmony in a complex world where not everyone is the same. Urbaniak had previously taken a course on making a difference in

When she approached Naughton about the baby box idea, the principal figured the charitable project could be a perfect match with students in YCI. It was an instant hit. “I’m present to how passionate kids are to create change in the

world,” Urbaniak says. The project is an illustration of community and how the pieces all fit together, with youth, adult volunteers and the beneficiaries – the moms and babies – each playing a role, she adds. Naughton, noting that YCI’s 30 or so members include an increasing number of adults, says,

“Kids at this age naturally want to lead, and sometimes they need a nudge. This project gives them an opportunity to do that.” For more information about Youth Creating Inclusion, or to help out with other school projects, contact Shoreline at 250-3868367. editor@saanichnews.com

Pet probiotics a growing trend Miss Daisy’s Pet Foods and Supplies owner Earnest Robertson is noticing a growing number of pet owners who want to purchase a line of health supplements for pets. Probiotics, flax seed and kelp are among the growing trend of nutritional supplements available for pets,

with some of the same purported health benefits for fur babies as for humans. Probiotics, also known as good bacteria, are living microorganisms that assist in digestive health. And while some dogs might not seem like they’re in need of any help wolfing down dinner, the products

are still in popular demand, both amongst Cadboro Bay dog owners and others who stop in after a visit the beach at Cadboro-Gyro Park. Next time you’re in the neighbourhood, check out Miss Daisy’s and other shopping in Cadboro Bay Village.

Bad preacher Father Juan Valdez, centre, played the heel at V.I. Pro Wrestling’s Return of the Monster event at Velox Rugby Club on Friday (Jan. 30). Valdez, a wrestling manager, resorted to dishonourable measures to help his wrestler Eddy Osborne (in ring) defeat Saanich’s Lak Siddartha.

Highlanders FC soccer club folds after five seasons Travis Paterson News staff

With an abrupt end to the Victoria Highlanders FC, which folded operations over the weekend, the Capital Region’s soccer community has lost its pre-eminent men’s and women’s clubs. Owner Alex Campbell released a letter that declared the organization was once again in a financial shortfall and when a current funding project fell through he made the decision to end the association’s term. “It’s sad and it’s unfortunate, the program in the last couple of years turned a corner, we had strong support on game days,” said general manager Mark de Frias, who also parts ways with the club. Shutting down is the Highlander’s premier men’s team of the Professional Development League, as well as the men’s and women’s premier and U21 teams in the Pacific Coast Soccer League. There is some hope that the youth academies and prospect teams may be able to continue this season. It leaves the South Island without a squad in the

PCSL as the previous men’s club, United, folded operations last year. The Highlanders started in 2009 and adopted the Victoria Stars’ PCSL team in 2010 when it ran into financial trouble, thrusting it a level up into the semipro W-League for two seasons. “You never want to see something like this happen but in the same breath Alex invested a lot of money since 2009,” De Frias added. “It seemed as if we were building that momentum and would have been great to see where we would have taken the momentum forward.” The Highlanders women went 12-0 and won the PCSL in 2014 while the Highlanders hit their peak in 2013, winning the PDL Western Conference and playing in the PDL Final Four. As GM De Frias knew there were parts of the program that didn’t make sense, but some that did. “I think the a PDL program could be successful here in Victoria, with a few tweaks, and hopefully down the road a phoenix rises from the ashes.” reporter@saanichnews.com

Braves enter home stretch Christian J.

STEWART

>BRAVESBEAT

@cjs_photography

With just four games remaining in the 2014-2015 VIJHL regular season, the Saanich Braves sent a strong message last week that they may be a team to watch once the playoffs begin. On Saturday (Jan. 31) in Parksville, the Braves, led by four goals from forward Seamus Maguire, pounded the Oceanside Generals 10-2, while on Friday (Jan. 30), the Braves entertained the league leading Victoria Cougars and gave them all they could handle, losing 3-2 on a goal by the Cougar's Michael Fretz with just 13 seconds to play. Despite the loss, the Braves sent the Cougars a pretty strong message that if they have an opportunity to face the Cougars in either the first or second round of the South Division playoffs, the Cougars will have it tough in every game. While the Cougars have now won all eight meetings between the two clubs this season, they

learned Friday that this is not the same Braves team that started the season 0-8-0-1, including four losses to the Cougars by a combined score of 25-1. Instead they saw the Braves team that since then, which has gone 15-14-1-4, including a 4-3 OT loss to the Cougars back on November 28th. On Saturday in Parksville, the Braves did what they should do against the worst team in the league, scoring early and often and avenging in a big way, a 5-4 loss to the Generals suffered in their last meeting in Parksville on Nov. 15. Maguire scored the first two goals of the game at 3:04 and 9:17 of the first period and added another pair in the second. Also scoring for Saanich were Jack Rachwalski, Garrett Stankoven, Hunter Atchison (with two), Nick Kean and Evan Horvath. Brandon Ward started both games for the Braves last week and seems to be rebounding nicely after a couple of poor outings. Ward was a big reason the Braves held the Cougars close Friday, making 37 saves on 40 shots and he stopped another 26 against Oceanside Saturday. The Braves now sit at 16-22-1-5 and occupy third in the South, five points ahead of the Kerry Park Islanders with both teams having four games left to play, including a

Vikes women sweep tourneys

The UVic Vikes women's field hockey team is enjoying its time off the pitch as it recently completed an indoor field hockey threetournament sweep. The Vikes won the B.C. Senior Championship hosted Jan. 31 and Feb. 1 in Duncan, where it split into two teams. It previously won the UVic Invitational event, Jan. 9-11, and the Hawks Invitational, Jan. 17-18.

Vikes men top James Bay in rugby

Christian J. Stewart/ISN

Seamus Maguire scored four goals against the Oceanside Generals on Jan. 31 as the Braves won 10-2 win. head-to-head match in Mill Bay on Saturday, Feb.7. Should the Braves hold on to that lead, they would face the Westshore Wolves in Round 1 of the playoffs, while the Cougars would face the Islanders. Should Kerry Park overtake the Braves, then they would face the Wolves leaving the Cougars to the Braves in Round 1. Don’t count out the Peninsula Panthers either. They are four points back of Kerry Park and could sneak into fourth in

the South if the Islanders continue to struggle. First up the Braves host the powerful Campbell River Storm at Pearkes Arena (6:30 p.m.) on Friday (Feb. 6). The Braves close out the season with games Monday, Feb 9 at Peninsula and Friday, Feb.13 at home against Westshore. - Christian J. Stewart is a Saanich-based communications professional and contributing editor and photographer with Independent Sports News.

The UVic Vikes men’s rugby team came away with a hard-earned victory, 29-20, against island rivals James Bay Athletics Association on Jan. 31 at Wallace Field. The win puts the Vikes at a 6-2-1 record in the CDI Premier League standings while James Bay fall to a 7-5-3 record. The Vikes will take a two-week break from Premier play as they head to Germany to match up against two rugby clubs - Hessen RU in Heusenstamm and Baden-Wuerttemberg RU in PforzheimEutingen. The Vikes will return Feb. 21 with a road game at Burnaby Lake.
