Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer City council has given three readings to a smoke-free bylaw that would force smokers to butt out within 7.5 metres of any outdoor public spaces in Williams Lake. The bylaw, if finally adopted, will impact city-owned and operated properties such as bus
shelters, playing fields and playgrounds, according to city planner Chris Hutton. “We have had about six or seven resolutions to adopt various forms of smoke-free bylaws to create a non-smoking community,” Hutton told the Tribune. The ban would also be in effect during temporary street closures for special events such as the Stampede Parade and the Street Party.
Hutton said the city’s own bylaw enforcement department has warned it will be hard to enforce the ban because its staff members are not peace officers, however, he hopes the most effective enforcement will be through signage and public education. “This type of community empowered enforcement has been seen already at Kiwanis Park, where smoking has been greatly
reduced by the presence of “No Smoking” signs,” Hutton said. One of the unique things about the bylaw is that it bans electronic cigarettes too, Hutton added. As January approached Hutton pushed for the bylaw because he said it might help people who had made New Year’s resolutions to quit smoking. The suggested fine for disobeying the bylaw is $100.

Timber Kings represent Cariboo at Winter Games tourism display. “We are so happy, we are over the moon with it,” said Blaine Estby, Northern BC Tourism’s community engagement manager. “The entry way is a one-of-a-kind piece for the ages.” Pioneer also carved a Super Natural British Columbia sign and a Northern British Columbia and Cariboo Chilcotin Coast sign for the tourism associations to display on site. Peter Arnold of Pioneer Log Homes added an extra bench, and his crew made a signing log as they did for the 2010 Olympics, Estby added. Pioneer Log Homes does world-class work, Estby said, adding he felt the Canada Winter Games were worthy of a world-class piece. Pioneer also helped transform Britco trailers, facing them with custom-built rough cedar and entrance ways in front. “We’ve made this incredible space,” Es-
Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Pioneer Log Homes has helped spruce up the Canada Winter Games in a big way. The Williams Lake company has created a cauldron out of an upside down cedar stump for the games torch and a grand entrance way for the Northern BC Tourism display inside the Canada Games Plaza in downtown Prince George. “Northern BC Tourism got a hold of me about doing something special for the games,” Pioneer Log Homes general manager André Chevigny told the Tribune. His brother, Bryan Reid Sr., and Mark Therrien of Williams Lake handled the City of Prince George’s request that the company build the cauldron. In addition to the cauldron and entrance way, the company also carved a caribou for inside the Cariboo Regional District trailer and a fire pit for the

tby said of transforming the downtown location. “We have 20 communities and regional districts from all across northern and central B.C. that are going to be here for 20 days.” Estby described the guys from Pioneer as incredible and said it’s been an awesome opportunity to work with them. “They’ve just brought so much recognition to north of Vancouver,” he chuckled. “We’re not quite there, we’re three hours away but we still call them our own too because anything north of Hope is north. It’s pretty awesome.” In its second season the HGTV show Timber Kings, which features Pioneer, continues to raise the profile of Chevigny and his coworkers, however, he insists it’s a team effort. “I want people to know how proud and appreciative I am of all the craftsmen at the site that help make the

It takes everyone to make it happen.” Estby praised Pioneer Log Homes for shining a positive light on northern B.C. “The people are what make it up here and having Pioneer do something like Timber Kings is awesome,” Es-
tby said. “They have that big show and yet you can call up Pioneer, ask for André, and he’ll answer the phone and have a conversation with you.” Chevigny said he and Arnold will be at the games this weekend to promote the Cariboo, Williams Lake and B.C. “We’re trying to make a difference all the time,” he said.
AN APPLE A DAY...
Billions of dollars are spent each year on underarm deodorants and antiperspirants. An antiperspirant contains a product that blocks the pores that release sweat. A deodorant simply contains aromatics that mask the smell of body odour. Check the labels to see whether a product contains both or just a deodorant. Just a reminder, that the chemicals in antiperspirants do not cause breast cancer. If you have arthritis, can you predict the weather? We often hear that arthritics can tell when the weather is about to change. There is probably some truth to this. A drop in barometric pressure will allow inflamed joints to swell more and of course cause more pain. Weather can also have an effect on asthma and migraines as well. When you donate blood, make sure you’ve had a substantial meal beforehand. Be well hydrated, in fact start drinking 1-2 litres of water a few days before your donation and one litre on the day of. Get a good night’s sleep and make sure you feel well on the day of your donation. No sore throat, colds etc. Make donating blood part of your life. Check the website: blood.ca/eligibility When taking oral medication, try having a sip of water before the dose. This reduces the chance of it sticking in the esophagus on its way to the stomach. Follow it with a full glass of water and don’t lie down for a few minutes. One of the nice things about working in our pharmacy is that you can really get to know your customers.

Chilcotin’s bighorn sheep featured in new film Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer When Williams Lake filmmaker Robert Moberg set out to create his film Bighorns in the Junction he didn’t realize it would become such a personal story. “It started out being about why the sheep are disappearing. I have interviews with top researchers in the field of bighorn sheep disease, but the film also has a philosophical element,” Moberg said. “It’s about getting your kids out into nature and why we need the wilderness.” The 90-minute-film will premiere in Williams Lake on Friday, Feb. 20 at the Cariboo Memorial Complex’s Gibraltar Room. “I think it’s fitting to have the initial screening here,” Moberg said. Moberg began formulating the film project in the fall of 2012. He had just returned to the Cariboo after living in Edmon-
ton. “I was back visiting and went out to Farwell Canyon and Junction Sheep Provincial Park and really started thinking how stunning it was after coming from Edmonton,” he recalled. After a good long hike, looking out over the canyon and grasslands, he was hooked and realized there must be a story. He did some research and learned the iconic creature of that ecosystem had declined to almost unsustainable numbers, both in the Churn Creek area and at the Junction. Moberg said a pneumonia virus that comes from domestic sheep is to blame for the decline, adding loss of habitat, poaching and lungworm disease are also impacting the numbers. “The cool thing about our sheep here is that no one has translocated sheep into the Junction or Churn Creek,” Mo-
berg said. “They are original blood lines from thousands of years ago.” Researchers he met and interviewed from the U.S. call the Junction sheep the mother of all sheep herds because when populations were practically extricated in the 1950s, they transported some sheep from the Chilcotin. “There is a bloodline of those sheep in Idaho and they are still there,” Moberg said. “We’re responsible for repopulating herds throughout the western U.S.” Numbers, however, are higher in Canada and the U.S. than they’ve been in a long time, estimated to be at 60,000 or 70,000. At one time there were two million, Moberg said. During the filming he learned the sheep have amazing eyesight and they protect their newborn lambs in the spring very tightly. While camped one time at the Junction,

tographer Chris Harris, Gord Sterrit from the Upper Fraser Conservation Alliance and some ranchers appear in the film. Moberg said he also got nice shots of local petroglyphs depicting a bighorn sheep. The film also explores the risks society continues to take with industry extracting resources, Moberg said. At its conclusion the film contains footage from the Aug. 4, 2014 Mount Polley

No excuses Valentine’s Day falls on a Saturday this year. That makes it a bit more of a challenge for the men. When that day for lovers is during the week, there are many more opportunities for excuses as to why they didn’t pay as much attention as they should have. After all, you had to get up and go to work. It was too busy during the day and you didn’t get a chance to get out for lunch. Traffic was bad on the way home and you didn’t want to stop for gifts and cards and be late. Guys can be quite creative when they are trying to save their own skin. But Saturday, they are trapped at home and there is plenty of interaction with his significant other, so it can be tense if he hasn’t thought ahead. For instance, when he sits down for his morning coffee, if there is a red envelope resting against his cup and he doesn’t have the trump card in his housecoat to return, it starts to get dicey. Worse yet, if he has missed some signals during the week, he is now playing from behind. For example, if at some time on Tuesday or Wednesday his wife casually mentioned, “I have a sitter for Saturday night,” and the only significance to his Saturday night is that the Canucks are playing the Flames on Hockey Night in Canada, he is heading for the rapids and the wa-

terfall is in sight. So then, many young men think they can salvage the day. They make a trip to buy cards, flowers and chocolates and after racking their brains to remember what her favourite restaurant is, they optimistically phone for a reservation. I read an article that reported the results of a survey that says that a high percentage of men observe Valentine’s Day only as an obligation or as a chance to get lucky. The term ‘getting lucky’ changes as you get older. An old timer friend of mine says his definition of getting lucky is finding a woman who can still drive after dark. But surely there must still be some romantic guys out there. A simple blank card that says I love you, with a handwritten note inside recalling the first time you told her you loved her is priceless. Follow that up with a reservation to a new place you made weeks ago, and then putting on a tie and sports jacket to take her to dinner. She just wants to be set apart from all the other women who received the rubber stamped cards and heart-shaped boxes of chocolates. One last tip for you young guys. If she has told you she doesn’t want anything for Valentine’s Day, don’t believe her for a second. It’s a test, and doing nothing is not an option. - Black Press
How to count the ways of love on Valentine’s Day As Valentine’s Day approaches I realize I will be scrambling at the last minute. I’m not always like that, but this year that day when we are encouraged to let our loved ones know how much we care seems to have snuck up so quickly. When we were kids there was always a dilemma. If you purchased the Valentine card packages, the cards went from big to small. Who did you give the big one to? What if someone gave you the big one and it made you feel uncom-

fortable? Every year one of my oldest friends sends us giant cookies. They are large heart-shaped, with pale pink icing and our names in dark red glaze.
Each cookie also has a heartshaped candy in the centre. My grown up kids are living around the province, and yet Catherine still mails them each their cookie. I lived with Catherine in Winnipeg for a few years and one year we put on a Valentine’s party. It was 1981 and we were determined to find strawberries for part of the menu. Neither of us had a car and it meant a long bus ride to a specialty market across the city to purchase our gold.
Times have changed. On Valentine’s Day in 2011, my husband and I were living apart. He had accepted a position in Williams Lake and I was still in Prince Rupert with our three sons. During a weekend writing workshop I composed a poem and in the end sent it to him for Valentine’s Day. I hadn’t written a poem for him since we’d started dating 27 years before. I had a lot of fun. This week when I asked people the question of the week, if they
had plans for Valentine’s Day, retired radiologist Mary Trott’s answer made me smile. “I wait for inspiration to strike at the last minute and then we are both surprised,” she told me with a twinkle in her eyes. Hopefully I’ll figure out just how to let my husband and children know how much they’ve taught me about this crazy thing we call love.

Post-secondary ‘re-engineering’ begins Premier Christy Clark’s push to “re-engineer” the B.C. education system is moving ahead aggressively in B.C.’s 25 post-secondary institutions. One of the first tasks for Andrew Wilkinson in his new role as advanced education minister was to outline the shift in operating grants for colleges and universities to in-demand occupations. By 2017, a quarter of the money for post-secondary institutions will be directed to areas where labour force surveys forecast a need. This was greeted with some alarm when it was announced last year. Simon Fraser University president Andrew Petter at first downplayed the coming skills shortage as “relatively small” and warned against pushing post-secondary institutions into a “zero sum battle for dollars.” Petter has since come on board, as his approving comments were featured in the ministry’s Jan. 26 news release detailing the shift. He and others have been assured that in spite of Clark’s rhetoric, suggesting trades training is in and university is out, the news for SFU and other universities isn’t all that bleak. Wilkinson is completing a province-wide tour of all postsecondary institutions this week, and I reached him at his visit to Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops. “The response to this has generally been pretty good, because the students are putting this pres-

with Tom Fletcher
sure on institutions themselves,” he said. “Some of the institutions are … shrinking things like teacher education and putting more effort into the sciencebased, quantitative fields that are often related to these in-demand occupations.” The surplus of teacher graduates has been noticeable for some time, but that’s largely a function of oversupply, much of it in urban areas. In the Cariboo, for example, teaching jobs are projected to have the highest number of openings by 2022, followed by nursing and retail and wholesale trade managers. Then come heavy duty mechanics and electricians, but also paraprofessional jobs in legal, social, community and educational services. Province-wide, it’s part of a broader demographic shift to fewer children and more retirees. In fact the government started this targeted funding a decade ago with health care, forcing universities to produce more doctors, nurses, lab techs and so
forth. The retiring baby boom is expected to account for more than half of the openings in the next decade, which will expand the skills demand across most fields, beyond the trades training for the anticipated liquefied natural gas industry and other high-demand industrial areas such as truck driving. Wilkinson notes that of the ministry’s $1.9 billion budget, about 60 per cent goes into general post-secondary education, for introductory courses that students take when they are seeking a career path, through under-
graduate studies to professions. “So I think the idea that we’re going to somehow minimize or diminish funding in that general education, arts and science category is just not true,” he said. Key to this shift is measuring the performance of courses offered at colleges, universities and technical schools. Each year, the ministry surveys about 30,000 graduates to find out whether their studies helped them find a related job. The results are available on a website that breaks them out by institution and general study area. To find it, do a web search
for “BC student outcomes” and select the “executive dashboard” to check the results for courses and schools in your region. The site provides charts showing the percentage of students who land relevant jobs. Not surprisingly, it tends to be higher for technical programs and lower for fine arts. It also shows grads’ average wages, a sobering but useful bit of information for high school students and their parents. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

Province’s forest industry in a global context A paper by Haley and Nelson (FSC at UBC) discusses the value of understanding forest tenures and ownership patterns beyond B.C.’s borders. Public ownership in Canada is firmly entrenched with 77 per cent of Canada’s productive forestland being provincially owned with 16 per cent federally controlled (mainly in the Yukon and the NWT). The western provinces are mostly under provincial ownership (89 to 95 per cent) while the Maritime Provinces are 50 per cent privately owned. Table two shows the ownership pattern and administration of 12 developed countries around the world. B.C. and Canada have the most publicly owned forest land (95 per cent), Australia and Brazil have
Forest Ink Jim Hilton approximately 75 per cent with the remaining countries studied around 20 to 50 per cent. The number of forest land owners is only 20 in B.C. compared to a high of 11,000 in the U.S. and around 3,000 in France and Japan. There are more than 40 different kinds of tenures in Canada — most are long-term (20 to 25 year) and are held by relatively few large pulp and fully integrated forest production companies primarily focused on lumber production. Corporatization has been exper-
imented within a number of countries with mixed results. The best outcomes seem to come from lands that have been classified as industrial timber production areas like plantations. The downside of corporations are the lack of financial discipline, corporate bloat and the possibility of political intrusion. Privatization in North America is often thought of as selling off public land to the highest bidder with the loss of any public influence or control. In some Scandinavian countries the common law right is recognized on private lands. For example, in Sweden, private forest lands must respect public access like the right to hike through the land, camp one night and collect non-timber products in a respectful manner. Private ownership in New Zea-
land is restricted to half of the state owned exotic plantations of approximately 1.2 million hectares. In Australia, a 1993 corporation was set up with the goal of privatizing plantations. Following privatization, the efficiency and output improved due to decreased harvest age but it was recognized the final product quality was reduced. The authors summarize by saying that privatization is not likely to be supported by either the forest companies or the bureaucrats because they would want to retain the status quo. As in corporatization any privatization move would need to be proceeded by satisfactory arrangements with First Nations, careful land use zoning of lands with relatively low conservation values but good potential for timber pro-
duction. In 1991, the BC Forest Resource Commission proposed that one third of the most suitable forest land be managed by forest corporations, one third managed under long term area based industrial crown tenure and the last third under small tenures held by individuals, communities and First Nations. In conclusion the authors state “we do not claim that these alternatives are either exhaustive or exclusive. A restructured tenure system may well draw on elements of all of these and other approaches.” 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.

TIPS FROM THE CRD
Smoke Alarms for People who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing Smoke alarms save lives. However, people who are deaf or hard of hearing may not be able to depend on the traditional smoke alarm to alert them to a fire. •
•
•
SAFETY TIPS
Smoke alarms and alert devices, called accessories, are available for people who are deaf. Strobe lights throughout the home are activated by smoke detectors and alert people who are deaf to fire conditions. When people who are deaf are asleep, a high intensity strobe light is required along with a pillow or bed shaker to wake them up and alert them to fire conditions so they can escape. Currently this equipment is activated by the sound of a standard smoke alarm. KKK Smoke alarm alert devices, called accessories, are available for people who are hard of hearing. These accessories produce a loud, mixed low-pitched sound. This equipment is activated by the sound of the smoke alarm and is usually installed next to the bed. People who are deaf may find that a pillow or bed shaker is also helpful to wake them up. Recent research has shown that a loud, mixed lowpitched sound is more effective for waking people of all ages than the loud high-pitched sound of a traditional smoke alarm. As people age, their ability to hear high-pitched sounds decreases. Research the available products and select one that best meets your individual needs.
WHERE TO FIND EQUIPMENT
Smoke alarms with built in or separate strobe lights can be purchased through home improvement store websites or by searching the internet for “strobe light smoke alarms.” BRK/First Alert, Gentex and Kidde brands offer this type of smoke alarm. Smoke alarm accessories such as bed/ pillow shakers, transmitters and receivers are available through lifetone.com and safeawake.com. Make sure any smoke alarm or accessory device you use has the label of a recognized testing laboratory.

The British Columbia Conservation Foundation (BCCF), under contract to the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, advises that commencing in December lake aerators will be in operation on: • Irish Lake • Skulow Lake • Simon Lake The purpose of the lake aeration program is to minimize fish mortality associated with reduced oxygen levels during the winter months on lakes at high risk. During periods of operation, the aerator units will create areas of open water and weak ice. The BCCF would like to remind residents to stay away from safety fencing placed around the aerators. Also, as a reminder to anglers, it is unlawful to fish within 100m of any active aeration unit (see pg. 10, BC Freshwater Fishing Regulations Synopsis).

Jake Currie photo
Jake Currie captures an image of his wife, Nan Currie, enjoying the groomed cross country tracks with the mountains in the background at Martin Lake in Tatla Lake recently. Community members meet up every Sunday, weather permitting, to go for a ski and stop by the hut at the gymkhana grounds for a warm soup and a hot chocolate.
FRENCH IMMERSION? Deadline for registration March 13, 2015
BC Hydro to replace power poles BC Hydro is advising Williams Lake residents that crews will be replacing power poles in Williams Lake over the next several months. The work is part of BC Hydro’s maintenance program that will see the replacement of more than 12,000 wooden utility poles this year throughout the province to im-
prove the safety and reliability of the electrical system. BC Hydro maintains 900,000 wooden poles as part of its 56,000 kilometre electricity distribution system that delivers power to homes and businesses. More than 20 per cent of BC Hydro’s wooden poles have been in service for more than 40
years. Over time, wooden poles weaken due to adverse weather, insects and wildlife. BC Hydro regularly inspects the old poles to determine their strength and will install new poles once they reach end-oflife. The lifespan of a power pole is 40 to 50 years on average. Pole replacements
may require BC Hydro or its contractors to disconnect power. Crews take special care to avoid any unnecessary impacts to customers. However, if these maintenance outages need to be scheduled for safety reasons, BC Hydro or its contractors will let customers know in-person, or by mail or phone.

CCATEC Administrative Assistant Office Assistant students Holly Billy, Juanita Keener, Sadie Cahoose, Shirley William, Janice Mitchell and Darleen Cahoose celebrate graduation at Thompson Rivers University Friday.
Graduates celebrate success at TRU Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Excitement, anticipation, and gratitude for the opportunity. Those were some of the words students from the Cariboo
Chilcotin Aboriginal Training Employment Centre’s administrative office assistant program described the course as they celebrated their graduation at Thompson Rivers University last week.
“I was unemployed and this program gave me an opportunity to receive some training,” said Darleen Cahoose. “I’ve seen a whole different me.” For Shirley William going back to school
was a challenge, but one she enjoyed. Sadie Cahoose pegged learning about First Nations Governance as the highlight, while Janice Mitchell said her work experience with Williams
Lake Indian Band was rewarding. Juanita Keener said she’s looking forward to new career opportunities, Holly Billy found the course taught her some new administrative skills.

tine. Also don’t forget some nice flowers, and chocolate, a big delight on this day. Chocolate covered strawberries would be a nice, sexy dessert and so easy to do. Use 100 per cent
pure dark chocolate. Perhaps you could start with a tasty omelet for breakfast along with some fresh fruit. Here’s an interesting idea for lunch. It’s a quick and easy way to make a nice tasty lunch salad using crab and avocado. • 1 cup cooked crab meat • 1/4 cup of chopped green or red bell pepper. It’s kind of nice to use both for extra colour. • 1/4 cup diced celery

• Seasoned sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste • 3 tbsp of garlic mayonnaise • 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice • Mixed summertime fresh salad greens • 6 avocado wedges for dressing Mix crab meat with bell peppers, celery, salt and pepper, lemon juice and mayonnaise. Take this mixture and put on salad greens with slices of avocado around the
salad. Make sure you have some candles, some nice romantic music you both enjoy and maybe some nice wine or even champagne. Also, both of you can cook together or each can do a different meal. Now it comes down to the main event –– a nice atmosphere and a posh dinner. I like to have a real nice piece of tenderloin. For two people you probably would not eat more than one
pound of meat. Rub the tenderloin with a halved garlic clove and sprinkle with sea salt and pepper. Roast the meat in a shallow pan placed in the middle part of your oven. I would roast at about 300 degrees for about a half hour. Check occasionally with a meat thermometer. If you like medium rare to medium doneness, the gauge should be around 130 degrees. Make a little gravy
with the drippings, and add some thinly cut mushrooms, thyme, salt and pepper to taste. A red onion salad would go nice on the side. Some strawberries dipped in chocolate would be a great way to wind down a lovely Valentine Dinner. Hugs this Valentine Day! Bye for now and Goood Cooking.

Shared Doubting There’s a popular, yet dangerous, myth about religious faith that states, “Either you have it, or you don’t.” The only problem with this seemingly decisive bit of “All or Nothing” religious rhetoric is that most people simply don’t work that way. Truth be told, you probably don’t work that way either. Whether Christian or Atheist we are always in the process of becoming more or less faithful. We’re always in transition between believing and not believing, and back again, and again. If we’re really honest with ourselves, we always fall somewhere along the paradoxical continuum of faithful believers who are fighting back doubt, and sure skeptics trying to escape belief. Regularly, I hear people say things like, “I’m a Christian and have a really strong faith, but often I have these massive doubts, and sometimes I’m not sure I believe at all”, while others will say,“I’m an Atheist and I can’t stand organized religion, but the teachings of Jesus still stir something inside of me. I also wonder a lot about the afterlife.” What is strikingly similar in so many people’s stories, is how many feel they need to keep such apparent inconsistency hidden. They are afraid to be “found out”, as not being fully invested in the
PARSONS PEN
BY REVEREND BUBBA side they’ve chosen or the group they’ve signed-up with. It would be better if we could all just admit that religious belief isn’t a team that we choose, but a journey that we’re on. None of us fits into a narrow, clearly defined box for very long, and even in our most sure moments, we are still not quite sure. Jesus tells what is known as “The Parable of The Four Soils”. He paints the wonderful picture of a farmer scattering seed which falls on different soils, with varying degrees of germination and growth. It’s an image of the different conditions of a person in
this life, which each yields certain receptiveness to the message Jesus gives. What’s beautiful about the story is its admission of complexity regarding belief. There are not simply saved lovers of God on one side, and damned rebels on the other. There is an understanding of nuance that is greater than merely “All or Nothing.” What’s more, Jesus allows for change and for season. He doesn’t assume that we are forever one soil. In fact, he reminds us that we are the everevolving product of the journey we walk. As you read this, you may consider yourself to be a Christian whose faiths only sometimes has cracks, or you may consider yourself an Atheist who only occasionally gets angry at a God who doesn’t exist. You may see the faithful or faithless as enemies poised on battle lines across from you, desiring to destroy and always prepared to charge. Yet, wouldn’t it be more accurate to think of us all as trying to navigate the same rugged, treacherous, terrain of big questions and elusive answers, and because of that, we should be kinder and more gracefilled toward each other on the way. Saved and Sinner, Evangelist and Atheist, Believer and Doubter, there is rarely as great a practical chasm between us as our traditions may dictate.

SHOOTING THE BREEZE
SPORTS NOTEBOOK Friday, Feb. 13 to Sunday, Feb. 15
Cariboo Amateur Hockey Association Playoffs

Lakecity residents take to Winter Games Greg Sabatino Staff Writer The Cariboo Chilcotin Coast will have no shortage of representation for the next two weeks when the Canada Winter Games takes centre stage in Prince George. Local volunteers, Games organizers, the Cariboo Regional District (CRD) and the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast Tourism Association, along with representatives from 100 Mile House, Quesnel, Wells, the Northern Shuswap Tribal Council and Williams Lake are set to showcase what the region has to offer. A Cariboo pavilion, originally built for the 2010 Olympic Games by Pioneer Log Homes, will be on display to highlight tourism and economic development opportunities in the
region. Geoff Paynton, Williams Lake’s director of community services, up until now had been a member of the Canada Winter Games Host Society. Now, he said his role will transition into the Games operation committee to help make sure everything runs smoothly. “Basically things like transportation, fields of play, food services, medical services, everything,” Paynton said. “We’ll be dealing with any new issues or problems and making sure they get vetted out, so troubleshooting and making sure things go as smoothly as possible. “It’s pretty amazing how much goes into one of these things.” From Williams Lake, the city’s events and marketing co-ordinator, Ken MacInnis, plus Stampede royalty,
will be on hand at the pavilion from Feb. 17-19. The CRD will be there prior from Feb. 14-16. 100 Mile House (Feb. 2022), Quesnel (Feb. 23-25) and Wells (Feb. 26-28) will follow. Demonstrations to be featured as part of the pavilion, which opens Saturday, Feb. 14 at 10 a.m. in the parking lot of the Four Seasons Leisure Pool, include an autograph session with the Timber Kings, roping demonstrations, sampling of locally made beef pepperoni, wood working demonstrations, hoop dancers and a visit from some special guests from Barkerville. Two members from Mt. Timothy Ski Area’s Ski Patrol team will also be volunteering at the Games — Angela Sommer and Amy Butler.
Sommer will be stationed at Tabor Mountain Ski Resort and will be ski patrolling for the freestyle skiing event including moguls, ski cross and aerials. Butler, meanwhile, will be at the Purden Ski Village to do first aid for the super G, slalom and giant slalom events. “I’m just really excited,” Sommer said. “I’m looking forward to meeting with people from around Canada and seeing the young athletes perform and grow. It’s amazing to see what these young people can do, and I’m looking forward to working with patrollers from around Canada, learning a lot and taking in some of the events and all the other things going on.” Butler said she’s looking forward to the opportunity to meet new people who work at different ski hills.
“The atmosphere’s going to be really, really neat just for everyone competing and the excellent talent there,” Butler said. “It’ll be good to meet people who work at different hills just to see how everybody works out.” Athletes arrived for the Games — which run from Feb. 13 to March 1 — on Thursday. Even Prime Minister Stephen Harper will be there, Paynton said. One thing Paynton wants people to do is to come witness what he said will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience. “If people have an opportunity to get up here and take part they should do it,” he said. “I’ve been to a few and they are massive and tons of fun, and everybody should experience one. It’s a lot bigger than what people expect.”
The CAHA Tier 2 Playoffs are underway for the Williams Lake peewee, bantam, midget, midget female and bantam female rep teams. Saturday, Feb. 14, game three of the peewee series versus Prince George (if necessary) takes place from 8:45 to 11:15 a.m. at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex. The bantam T-wolves play Feb. 15 (if required), also against Prince George, from 4 to 7 p.m. at the CMRC. In the midget division the Timberwolves play at the CMRC Feb. 14 from 4:15 to 7:15 p.m., then again on Sunday morning for game two from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. Game three may be the same day or moved to the following weekend depending on the bantam game result. The midget female Timberwolves host Prince George Feb. 13 from 6:15 to 9:15 p.m., then play again Saturday from 1 to 4 p.m. The bantam female Timberwolves’ playoffs start the following weekend, Feb. 20-22, at the CMRC. Game one goes 5:45 to 8:45 p.m., while game two starts at 1:15 p.m., with game three (if needed) going from 8 to 11 a.m. on Feb. 22.

Williams Lake’s Kayla Moleschi and Canada’s Women’s Sevens Rugby Team played to a third-place finish last week at the Sao Paolo Sevens.
Moleschi and Team Canada win bronze at Sao Paolo Sevens Kayla Moleschi of Williams Lake and Canada’s Women’s Sevens Rugby Team captured third place at the Brazil Sao Paulo Sevens — part of the World Rugby Women’s Sevens Series 2016 Olympic qualifying tournament — with a 19-0 win over France in the bronzemedal game.
It was the second tournament in a row Canada has defeated France to capture third place after downing them 10-5 at the Dubai Sevens in November. Moleschi cracked the starting lineup in each of Canada’s games, which was the team’s fifth straight third-place finish at a World Rugby
Women’s Sevens Series and ninth straight tournament they have finished in the top four. The top four teams at the end of the season will automatically qualify for the 2016 Summer Olympics. Earlier in the day Canada beat Russia 22-10 to advance to the cup semifinals where
they lost to Australia, 12-7. Dating back to last year, the Wallaroos have beaten Canada in the cup semifinals at four consecutive series events. With their thirdplace finish Canada earned 16 points to remain third overall in the standings.

Save-On-Foods takes command of first place in Super League of Curling S av e - O n - Fo o d s now has a solid hold of first place in the Williams Lake Super League of Curling. The team, skipped by Ken Teskey, was down 5-1 after four ends but again battled back to take two in the fifth end and stealing three in the sixth — eventually running Brian Purdy’s rink, PMT Chartered Accountants, out of rocks for an 8-5 victory. In the other matchup of the night Simone Leclerc’s Water Factory rink upended Ron Bisaro’s Credit Union team in an 8-5 win. Water Factory started strong with an early 3-0 lead, how-
ever, Credit Union battled back to tie the score at 3-3. Credit Union had opportunities for big ends in the fifth and seventh ends but could not capitalize on their opportunities. Save-On-Foods, to date, has a record of nine wins and four losses, with Water Factory in second place with seven wins and six losses. Holding down the third-place spot is Credit Union with a six-win, seven-loss record, while PMT Chartered Accountants is in fourth with four wins and nine losses.

Human trafficking is a global and multi-faceted phenomenon. It occurs across and within national borders. Its defining feature is the illegal exploitation of women, men and children. The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime has raised the profile about human trafficking throughout the world and has encouraged all nations to take appropriate actions to help stop such illegal and cruel activity. Here in Canada, as you will come to realize, we do have human trafficking occurring in large numbers all across the country. A problem we all face right now is a general lack of knowledge about the issue of human trafficking and its presence in our communities. We hope to be able to change that. The Canadian Crime Stoppers Association (CCSA) was very pleased to be approved by Public Safety Canada to participate in a project which will utilize the ability of Crime Stoppers programs across the country and help increase awareness of this growing issue. The project will encourage provision of information through the tip taking network which will facilitate law enforcement response to any identified human trafficking activity. Public Safety Canada is funding the development of posters, pamphlets and presentations which will be provided to every Crime Stopper program for use in raising awareness in the communities we serve. Crime Stoppers in Canada currently serves over 4000 communities through its 107 programs. If we can raise awareness nationally about this important issue we should be able to decrease, if not eventually eliminate, this illegal activity.

LOCAL VIEWPOINTS
Fruits and vegetables: Are you eating enough? Tara Stark Special to Tribune/Advisor February is Heart Month and eating a healthy diet plays an important role in preventing heart disease. If I had to recommend just one thing people could do to eat healthier it would be to eat more vegetables and fruit. Research clearly connects vegetable and fruit consumption to health and longevity. Most Canadians still fall short of the Canada Food Guide recommendation for adults to eat seven to 10 servings a day. Here in B.C., only around 40 per cent of us (age 12 and over) get five servings or more of vegetables and fruit a day so we clearly have some work to do. How many servings of vegetables and fruit did you eat yesterday? Before you count, consider how big a serving size actually is. One serving of vegetables is half a cup chopped (fresh, frozen or canned) or one cup of raw leafy greens. One serving of fruit is half a cup chopped (fresh, frozen, or canned) or a whole medium sized fruit. A half cup of 100 per cent fruit or vegetable juice also counts as a serving but it is better to eat whole fruits and vegetables than to drink juice because fruit juices are a concentrated source of sugar and store bought vegetable juices are usually high in salt. Seven to 10 servings of vegetables and fruit may sound like a lot. If you are not accustomed to it, the volume can seem daunting. Many vegetables are very low in calories so you do get a lot of nutrients, fibre, and disease fighting phytochemicals in very few calories. For example, a cup of spinach has just seven calories and provides fibre as well as vitamins and minerals
like vitamin K, vitamin A, folate, magnesium, potassium, and iron that support good health. With year round availability and many convenient options, it’s never been easier to eat lots of vegeta-
bles and fruit. Here are some tips to help you get seven to ten servings a day. Aim for half a plate of vegetables at lunch and supper. Buy berries when in season. Freeze for easy nutritious desserts or
for adding to smoothies or home baking. After you shop, pre-pack baggies of chopped vegetables to bring to work or to send to school. Keep frozen vegetables on hand for a quick and easy side
dish. Buy kale or spinach in season or on sale. Wash it, cut it and put it in the freezer to add to smoothies, soups, and sauces. When you make a salad, prepare enough greens and cut up veg-
etables to have a salad another day. Don’t let fruits and vegetables go to waste. Learning how to properly store fruits and vegetables can save you time and money. For information on storing vegetables and
fruit check out our website - http://www. interiorhealth.ca/ YourHealth/HealthyLiving/FoodSecurity/ Documents/Store%20 it.pdf. Tara Stark is a community nutritionist with Interior Health.
