Reservoir, dam owners, reminded of flood flows The B.C. government is reminding owners of reservoirs and dams to monitor water levels due to significantly wet conditions. This year, the water levels of many reservoirs are higher than normal. Although still early in the year, water management staff are anticipating a wetter-than-normal spring and are concerned that localized flooding may occur. In anticipation of the upcoming spring freshet (usually mid-March
to mid-June), reservoir owners are being asked to ensure their dams are properly operated and maintained to safely discharge any flood flows. Dam owners are responsible for the safe operation and maintenance of their dams and are liable for any damages that are caused by them. Here are some basic steps to follow: • Conduct regular surveillance
and monitoring. • Clear the spillway of any blockages (including temporary flashboards). • Ensure the low-level outlet is maintained and operational. • Review and exercise your Emergency Preparedness Plan. • Ensure any inflow diversion structures are maintained and operational. • Under certain circumstances, it may be necessary to lower the
reservoir to provide additional storage to reduce downstream flooding. • For dams located on Crown land, ensure that the required signs are in place and in good repair. For further information on the Dam Safety Program and the current dam safety regulation visit the Dam Safety Website at http:// www.env.gov.bc.ca/wsd/public_ safety/dam_safety/index.html.

Property owners warned of possible contamination Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer
Mayor Walt Cobb said he couldn’t find anything that would be detrimental to the aquifer as he read through all the materials given to property owners by the two companies. “My concern is that they didn’t let the city know in advance that they were sending out the notifications,” Cobb said. Carrie Barker has lived at 629 Pinchbeck St. since 1959 and said when she received the letter she was immediately worried about the value of her home. “My first step was to find out if my place was going to be worthless or not because it means when I go my kids have got nothing. I went in to have it reassessed and received an answer telling me they didn’t think it would affect me.” Barker was told she will receive a more definitive answer from BC Assessment after its panel reviews applications for reassessment in March. Her letter also said the results of the investigation indicate there
Environmental investigations of former Shell and Imperial Oil sites in Williams Lake have revealed that subsurface soil and groundwater could be contaminated on nearby residential properties. Last month owners of properties on Pinchbeck Street located near the former bulk plant sites at 548 and 580 Mackenzie Ave. received a registered joint-letter from Imperial Metals and Shell Canada with results from tests conducted by SNC-Lavalin. “Contamination may have migrated in groundwater (in the subsurface approximately 29 metres to 39 metres below grade) below your property,” the letter informed residents, adding the information was a follow-up to the letter residents received in August 2004, notifying them of possible Shell and or Imperial-sourced contamination on their property.

are no environmental or health risks associated with the contamination below her property, yet it spells out specific risk controls. “It said future buildings on the site must be slab on-grade, or constructed with a basement to a maximum depth of three metres below grade,” Barker read from the letter. “I have a basement suite right now.” The letter also advised that groundwater must not be used as a drinking water source. Because all of the properties are connected to the city’s drinking water, the companies stated they did not think it would be a concern. “I’ve watched them come and do drilling in the summer and winter for several years,” she said. “They said they were checking the water table.” Obviously the information received by the residents is alarming, said Williams Lake city planner Chris Hutton. “But it is good news the companies are cleaning up the sites,”

Pinchbeck Street resident Carrie Barker recently received notice her property could potentially be contaminated because of its proximity to former Shell and Imperial Oil sites. he added. “The province has a polluter pays program and the fact Imperial and Shell have hired SNC Lavalin to carry out these works means it’s not being done on the taxpayer’s back.” Typically cleanups happen in the context of development,
however, there is no indication of any development proposed for either site, Hutton said. In their letter, Imperial Oil and Shell told residents they plan to make Environmental Certificate of Compliance Applications on behalf of the property

Everyone loves snack foods at times. Instead of reaching for the potato chips and pretzels, try some nuts. Almonds, pistachios, cashews, walnuts and pumpkin seeds do contain fat but these fats are polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats which are good for us. They are also packed with protein. It takes about five to six hours for our bodies to eliminate half the caffeine in a cup of coffee. Some people need that to help kickstart their days. It’s also a reason why coffee too late in the day may not be advisable if you have sleeping problems.

rezoning amendment– 3061 Dog creek road
7:00 pm, February 26, 2015 in the crD boardroom in Williams lake The Cariboo Regional District (CRD) has received an application to amend Cariboo Regional District Central Cariboo Area Rural Land Use Bylaw No. 3503, 1999 by rezoning the property described below:
Vehicle thefts keep police busy A car left running in Quesnel ended up stolen and ditched in Williams Lake this week. According to Staff Sgt. Del Byron of the Williams Lake RCMP, a 2005 grey Honda Accord was reported stolen by the Quesnel RCMP earlier in the evening Wednesday after the owner left it running and unattended. A keen-eyed Williams Lake RCMP officer travelling on Mackenzie Avenue North saw the suspect vehicle speed by, but by the time the member could turn the RCMP vehicle around and pursue it, the vehicle was found abandoned on its side, and two unknown suspects had fled into the old dairy fields. “We did a tracking with the police dog but weren’t
successful locating the suspects,” Byron said Thursday. The theft comes as a reminder not to leave a vehicle running, he added. In other stolen vehicle news, a blue 2000 Ford F250 stolen from Ron Ridley Rentals on Oliver Street in Williams Lake was discovered in Ashcroft on Friday, Feb. 13. A BC Hydro employee told the Ashcroft RCMP the truck had been parked for about a week at the substation on Highway 97C just off Government Street. It had a damaged ignition and bore license plates, later determined to be stolen from Lake City Ford. The truck was reported stolen on Jan. 31. That theft is still under investigation, Byron said.

Photographer enjoys access to wildlife

Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Within months of arriving in Canada, Mareike Moelder has discovered the joy of photographing wildlife. Originally from Germany, the 29-year-old arrived in the Chilcotin in May 2014 to work on a ranch between Alexis Creek and Redstone through workaway info armed with a new camera. “I took a picture of an eagle with a raven and the woman I was working for was impressed,” Moelder said. “She really liked it and all the pictures I was taking.” Moelder has always enjoyed taking photographs, but said no one really looked at her work, until recently. “I was surprised and didn’t really think it was me, but a lot of people are telling me I have an eye for some things.” Wildlife isn’t something she saw much of in Germany, she added. “Here I’ve seen bears, wolves and bald eagles, which we don’t have there.” She was waiting to see a moose for months, and worried she was going to have

Then one day on her way to work she saw one standing in a garden at 150 Mile House where she lives. Two Sundays ago she was ice fishing with her boyfriend on Chimney Lake and on the way home she spied three owls sitting on poles and wires. It was getting dark so she was disappointed with the lighting, however, she snapped photographs because her mom’s favourite animal is the owl. “I can make her a card,” she smiled. Moelder said she doesn’t like the idea of changing a photograph.

Many people have asked her if she changed the colours in one of her photographs of a humming bird. “Maybe the blue would look prettier, but then that wouldn’t be the true picture.” Moelder has a bachelor’s degree in marketing management and media economics and has worked as a bank clerk. After the Chilcotin ranch she accepted a four-week workaway babysitting position in Vernon and then travelled to Gabriola Island, before coming back to the Cariboo. In October she start-

The thing about balanced budgets No more borrowing for “groceries.” At least that is what Finance Minister Mike de Jong said when explaining B.C. budget surpluses this year and in the coming years will largely be used to pay down the provincial operating debt. Unless you are an already struggling family, according to the official opposition. British Columbians will face more fee and rate hikes in 2015, according to a press release issued by the NDP. Christy Clark’s Liberal government announced a balanced budget on Tuesday. Flat wages and increasing costs might have some families scraping for money to feed their families. That means there is little in the budget to help sectors like education, which is falling far-
ther behind every budget and having to direct more money away from educating students to paying the costs of just being able to keep school doors open. In a time of ongoing economic uncertainty on the global stage, a free-spending budget would be a mistake. And fiscal discipline, coupled with initiatives to help challenges facing business should be applauded. But if B.C.’s economic out look is as stable as de Jong predicts, with surpluses of more than $250 million over the next three years, perhaps it is time to start reinvesting in some of those soft costs, like education and social services, which may not show immediate benefits, but have a huge payoff down the road.

Piecing together personal histories an ongoing gig This week national leaders and Anglican Church representatives joined residential school survivors, First Nations leaders and community members in a special ceremony to mark the demolition of St. Michael’s Indian Residential School in Alert Bay. I was born in Alert Bay and listening to some of the coverage of the event and the painful memories made me appreciate that birthplaces can impact us in different ways. When I tell people I was born in Alert Bay it usually makes for a good conversation. As a kid I would have to correct people and explain that I was not born in Alert way up in the north. “Alert Bay is a little native village on the coast,” I’d explain,

probably repeating something my parents had told me. In high school in Nelson my principal told me he got his first job in Alert Bay because of me. My mom had been hired to teach French and gym at the public junior/senior high school there, but when I was born the following year, she gave up her position. A few years ago, I was on a jury adjudicating grant applications
and learned that a fellow juror was from Alert Bay. “What are the odds?” he said of the fact there were five of us on the panel and two of us were born in the same place. Smiling I asked if he was delivered by Dr. Pickup. He nodded yes. Last September I was in for a routine test at Cariboo Memorial Hospital when a male nurse on duty introduced himself. When he told me he was from a coastal community near Alert Bay, I told him I was born there. It turned out he was delivered by Dr. Pickup too, although I would guess almost 30 years after me. And in November while I was waiting to pick up my truck from the mechanic, a woman came in
who was from Alert Bay. I smiled and told her I was born there but because my family moved to Ocean Falls shortly afterwards, I didn’t have any memories, but that one of these years I hope to get to Alert Bay and Ocean Falls. My brother Michael is buried in Ocean Falls. He was born prematurely while my parents were lighthouse keeping near there. When I moved to Prince Rupert from Nelson I became curious about Michael’s grave so I randomly picked a name from the phone book and called. I told the man who answered my story and asked if he would mind looking for Michael’s grave the next time he was at the cemetery. I also told him my parents had
planted a large Juniper tree beside the grave and always wondered if it had thrived. The next day a photograph arrived by e-mail depicting a grave marker. He said there was a stump beside it so the tree had probably grown large. I did not have the heart to ask him to go back and take more photographs, however, 20 years later, a friend in Williams Lake went to Ocean Falls for work and snapped some photographs of the cemetery for me, one showing the view leading down to the inlet. It is a little piece of my history, but one that brings a brother I never knew a little closer. Monica Lamb-Yorski is a staff writer with the Tribune/Weekend Advisor.

Annual health care crisis grips B.C. The annual ritual of declaring a crisis in health care is upon us, with the B.C. Liberal government boasting that we have the best system in Canada, while the NDP and the B.C. Nurses’ Union try to portray it as the worst. The BCNU is the last big public sector union still to settle in the latest round of contract talks. Feeding horror stories to the media is part of its strategy, and this time it was a patient at Abbotsford Hospital assigned a bed in a small shower room for a month due to chronic overcrowding. Hospital officials said his care wasn’t compromised. We’ve seen it in Abbotsford, Surrey and elsewhere: a new hospital or expansion is built and is immediately overcrowded. We are reminded every winter that influenza season brings a wave of people into emergency, expecting treatment for a viral infection that in most cases can only run its course. Many people still don’t understand what “the flu” is, beyond the notion that it sounds serious enough to tell the boss you won’t be in to work. And as fewer doctors choose the endless demands of family practice, the expectation that all problems must be dealt with quickly and for free seems to grow as inexorably as the health care budget. An emergency physician of my acquaintance provided a typical scenario for night shift at the ER. Where once nights were

quiet, now there are patients waiting for hours, around the clock. Several are drunk, and one has urinated on the floor. Surveys show as many as half of ER visits are alcohol-related, from overdoses to fights, falls, car crashes and chronic conditions. Into this chaos comes a mother with her young child, who has nasal and chest congestion. The child’s cough led her to throw up, so off to ER they went, blithely assuming that this is where you bring a kid with a cold. This week’s B.C. budget brings us a step closer to the moment when half of all provincial revenues go to keep the health care system running. In the legislature, NDP health critic Judy Darcy blasted Health Minister Terry Lake for the government’s failure to keep its 2010 promise to find everyone in B.C. a family doctor. Lake allowed they’re still working on that, and then plugged the latest Conference
Board of Canada study showing B.C. ranks third in the world in health care outcomes, second only to Switzerland and Sweden. Darcy, a former president of the Hospital Employees’ Union, was quick to respond: “This is surely a first in question period, the Minister of Health going back to the record of the NDP government in the 1990s, because we’ve had the best health outcomes in Canada since 1993. The fact is that we exercise more, we smoke less and we drink less,
and that’s to the credit of British Columbians.” We also have more elderly people, as Premier Christy Clark argued in 2011 when the federal government changed its financing formula. After years of increasing transfers by six per cent per year, the late federal finance minister Jim Flaherty announced that starting in 2014, increases would be tied to economic growth, but wouldn’t fall below three per cent.
This of course was treated as a cut, rather than continued increases above inflation. But there it is, and all provinces have to deal with it. Darcy is quite right that personal responsibility is the key, something to remember as the usual squabbling of special interests continues.

Innovation and adding value to forest products key A 2006 paper “Technology and the Competitiveness of the Wood Products Sector in B.C.” by Thomas Maness describes the results of a workshop involving representatives from industry and universities. The participants used a detailed analysis to look at key financial and operating data (from logs, commodity lumber, veneer, chips, pulp, paper, structural panels and other value added products) to compare B.C. and Canada’s forest industries with global wood industries. Canada’s competitiveness in the wood products sector has been based historically on abundance and quality and low cost of its raw materials. Since the mid-1990s the Canadian pulp and paper mills have been outclassed by the more
Forest Ink Jim Hilton modern mills in the USA and other countries. With newer technology including faster machines and wider presses there is less need for market pulp blended from the more superior northern softwoods. Another example is a new multimillion-dollar plant in Brazil. This-state-of-the-art plant uses genetically improved eucalyptus to produce a high quality paper. The raw material grows in plantations a short
distance from the mill and attains a production rate of 50 m3/ha/yr on a seven-year rotation. This is contrasted to a growth rate on our natural stands of 1.9 m3/ha/yr. The competitiveness of the pulp plants impacts the lumber industry in that the latter relies on the byproduct of chips to help make the lumber production competitive. One important question is should we replace the outdated pulp mills with larger super mills like the Brazilian one or smaller value added mills that make the best use of our unique, slower growing forests. It appears that the smaller value added mills may be the best option. The cheap hydro electric power in B.C. will no doubt help our existing or upgraded pulp mills to stay
competitive. Up to the mid-1990s higher lumber prices were paid for larger dimension lumber (2x10). Canada and in particular B.C. had a significant number of large trees to produce the higher value lumber. With the invention and acceptance of structural beam and timber strand products the premium of the larger dimension lumber is now much less. In the lumber industry, most of the recent technological innovations have been targeted at improving volumetric product recovery. As a result the lumber recovery factor has steadily increased in the past 15 years even though the average piece size has declined. Unfortunately this new technology is also available to our competitors who often have cheaper and more
abundant raw materials as well as lower labour costs. Canada needs to move from a resource-based industry based on extraction to one based on innovation and adding value to customers. Sweden was able to successfully offset the disadvantages of high raw material and labour costs by investing in technology and value added manufacturing. The knowledge gained through the development of the forest products sector was translated into other high tech business. 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.

Bighorns in the Junction premieres tonight Williams Lake filmmaker Robert Moberg is premiering his new film, Bighorns in the Junction, tonight Friday, Feb. 20 at the Gibraltar Room. Moberg’s research indicates that Big horn sheep numbers have declined to almost unsustainable numbers in the Churn Creek and Junction areas
of the Cariboo-Chilcotin. He says a pneumonia virus that comes from domestic sheep is to blame for the decline, along with loss of habitat, poaching and lungworm disease. “It started out being about why the sheep are disappearing,” Moberg
says. “I have interviews with top researchers in the field of bighorn sheep disease, but the film also has a philosophical element,” Moberg says of the 90-minute film. “It’s about getting your kids out into nature and why we need the wilderness.”
Shred the Nar segment kicks off film night Tuesday Krista Liebe Special to Tribune/Advisor
The Williams Lake Film club will screen its next film this coming Tuesday, Feb. 24, at the Gibraltar Room starting at 7 p.m. Our next feature film is Calvary by writer/director John Michael McDonagh with Brendan Gleeson. It is an Irish/British co-production and was filmed in Rush in the County of Dublin, Ireland. Running time 102 min., Rated R. We will try for subtitles as Irish is not always the easiest to understand. Calvary is the second part in writer/director’s Michael McDonagh’s “glorified suicide trilogy.” The first part we have seen a couple of years ago, The Guard. In Calvary, Gleeson portrays a shaggy, rumpled, bearded priest who is faced with sinister and troubling circumstances set in motion by a member of his congregation who had been sexually abused as a child. Now he wants revenge, but not the easy kind. He wants to kill and sacrifice an innocent priest for sins against the innocents. What ensues is a pitch-

It is a wonder to watch Gleeson face his very own personal Calvary. McDonagh himself was a one-time altar boy, and one wonders, what happened? Calvary has been called a bruising beauty of a film, a great description. On his rounds through his parish, Father James (Gleeson) encounters it all it seems. Despair, wrath, lust, pride, cruelty, blasphemy, greed, even a love triangle. I do not think any other actor could have carried this off as Brendan Gleeson does. He is simply fascinating. We also will screen an-

You can check out their facebook page and also find their film on youtube. That reminds me, the Williams Lake Film Club also has a facebook page. Check it out. And we will have a birthday cake following the screening of Calvary. Ruth Lord, our oldest (she will be 97!!!), most loyal and only honorary member of our club will be honoured with the cake. But she will want you to know that you are all invited to share it with her after we sing a rousing Happy Birthday to Ruth, (and to you Tilly).

Safety Meeting concert series coming up Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer There will be lots of opportunity to enjoy a wide variety of live music in the lakecity this winter and spring during a unique concert series titled Safety Meeting. “I’m really excited about all the artists we’ve got on board,” says event co-organizer Brandon Hoffman. “We’ve got some serious rock stars of the Music Festival circuit, a couple of whom have never played in Williams Lake. “We will be featuring an out of town act coupled with a local act each evening,” Hoffman adds. The concert series will take place at the Central Cariboo Arts Centre next to city hall in Williams Lake with doors opening at 7:30
p.m. and the concerts starting at 8 p.m. Except for opening night on Saturday, Feb. 28 all of the concerts will be held on Friday evenings. Hoffman is organizing the concert series with Megan Chutskoff and Brent Morton in concert with Horsefly’s Arts on the Fly Festival Society. “We have a good little team of volunteers and are really thankful to have all of this help,” Hoffman says. In efforts to get the community off the couch and out of the house Hoffman says they are calling the concert series Safety Meeting, in a tonguein-cheek reflection that nine out of 10 accidents happen in the home. “It’s just my morbid sense of humour,” Hoffman says of the name. “If you stay

Fundraiser helps Marie Sharpe breakfast program Every child at Marie Sharpe Elementary School is welcome to start the day with a healthy breakfast thanks to the Breakfast Club of Canada. Starting yesterday, Thursday, Feb. 19, and for the next two weeks, Walmart is collecting donations from their customers specifically for the Marie Sharpe Breakfast Club of Canada program. Principal Calvin Dubray welcomes the fundraising effort. He says 30 to 50 students a day participate in the school’s breakfast club program. Wednesday Dubray
invited Walmart representatives to attend a school breakfast to see first-hand how the program works. Walmart is one of many corporate supporters of the Breakfast Club of Canada whose goal it is to empower every child to realize their full potential and recognizes that a good day starts with a good breakfast. Breakfast Club statistics indicate that one in seven children in Canada starts the school day on an empty stomach due to a lack of access to nutritious food.

Hospital beer-craft fundraiser sold out in in three days Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer The Williams Lake Craft Beer Fundraiser for the Cariboo Foundation Hospital Trust happening at the Gibraltar Room this Saturday evening was sold out within three days by word of mouth, says event organizer Joel Martin. A total of 275 tickets at $40 a piece went on sale Dec. 1, 2014 and were all sold by the morning of Dec. 4, Martin says. “We had no idea there would be this amazing response.” The beer-craft fundraiser is part of the Cariboo Foundation Hospital Trust’s ongoing efforts to raise funds to purchase equipment for Cariboo Memorial Hospital. Martin says 12 breweries will be represented at the event featuring 36 different types of beer to sample.
Participating breweries include: Barkerville Brewing out of Quesnel; Bomber Brewing (Vancouver); Canuck Empire Brewing (Abbotsford); Central City Brewing (Surrey); Driftwood Brewery (Victoria); Fernie Brewing (Fernie); Granville Island Brewing (Vancouver); Innis & Gunn (Scottish company with Prince George sales rep); Old Yale Brewing (Chilliwack); Russell Brewing (Surrey); Steamworks Brewing (Vancouver); and Three Ranges Brewing from Valemount. “This event brings
a new activity to town in February,” Martin says. “It also seems to indicate that people are ready, willing and excited to try new beers. “The craft beer industry is booming in B.C. and the response to the event has reflected the craft beer movement. Giving the funds to the hospital charity is a huge bonus.” Martin advises that the best way to enjoy the evening is to stay hydrated. “If you want to sample all 36 beers, you’ll need to balance that with water,” Martin says. He says the The Water Factory is donating water for the event. “Remember to keep an open palate to try new things,” Martin adds. “There will be some brand new beers and rare, one time brews that we may nev-

Ken’s Seafood Supreme a delicious experiment in cooking One of the neat things about cooking is that you can learn to be really creative. If you are making a nice soup to warm you on a cool February day you can put in different vegetables and meats and you can use a beef, chicken or vegetable stock for the base. Also there are a wide variety of herbs and spices that will go into the soup. Just try different ways of making soup. The variety is endless. Lots of times I will

deciding I wanted a seafood supper. Ken’s Seafood Supreme • Three tbs each of butter and olive oil • Four garlic cloves chopped; eight tiger prawns; a dozen small scallops; two trout fillets from a 16 inch trout • One half cup white wine; seasoned sea salt and pepper to taste. • Chives or onion tops for decoration In a medium hot frying pan put in butter, ol-
ive oil and two cloves of garlic chopped. After heating garlic for five minutes shut off pan and let all the ingredients get happy together. One hour later turn heat on under pan until medium and then add one-quarter cup of wine. Mmaintain on medium heat for about 10 minutes or until a nice syrupy sauce is left. Turn off heat under pan and add scallops and prawns and leave for one hour. This gives time for
the scallops and prawns to snuggle up to the fine tasting sauce of garlic and wine. After an hour turn on the heat to medium, take out prawns and scallops. Add the rest of wine and garlic. Let this cook on medium for about five minutes. Put the fish in the pan and when the fish is almost done return the prawns and scallops and cook all together for a few more minutes. Use seasoning sea salt to taste along with
a little pepper. Serve prawns and scallops over fish. Then pour the rest of sauce over the dish. The actual cooking does not take much time, but you do have to organize this dish somewhat because it does take some time to let the flavors meld together and get really happy. Bye for now and GOOOOOD COOKING. Ken Wilson is a freelance columnist with the Tribune/Advisor.

What’s That You Said? Starting to become concerned about the future now that the economy is starting to tank? We see signs of financial collapse all around us, the value of our dollar is so low it is causing the prices of imported goods to skyrocket and, in general things are at best uncertain and at worst in danger of imminent collapse. Doomsday prophets are, verbally at least, rubbing their hands in glee saying, “I told you so!” Fear – it seems to be something we constantly live with. I spoke with a gentleman some days ago about fear and he professed, quite adamantly I may say, that as a Christian he did not live in fear, and did not allow fear to enter his thoughts. After all, the Bible teaches we need to trust in God, to walk in faith, not to depend on what we have and what we can do. So I changed the conversation to the amazing winter this year. The day we spoke was another sunny day, well above freezing, and the snow, well let’s just say there was little of it. I expressed my enjoyment of this kind of winter and early spring and how it made me feel that summer was just around the corner. His response? “Don’t get too excited. It may be nice now, but we will pay for it
PARSONS PEN
BY GERRIT APPERLOO down the road!” Did you catch the contradiction between what he had earlier confessed (no fear allowed in his thoughts) and this statement (which expressed fear of paying later for the joy we experience today)? Many of us live with this kind of contradiction in our lives. We say one thing, and even believe it ourselves, but then contradict it with another statement or even with the way we live our lives! In the words of the old western movies, we speak with ‘forked tongue’. In fact, one of the major
accusations levied against Christians by non-christians is “You don’t practice what you preach!” The criticism is valid. Christians need to practice what they preach. When facing the future, we preach that our trust is in a sovereign God who has all things in his hands, it is all under his control and we can trust him to see us through. But living it in practice, demonstrating it in our lives is another thing, right? Oh, I don’t mean we should live with a false bravado attitude, but we need to live with full trust and confidence in God to take us through and to care for us in all circumstances. That is something we need constant reminding of and it is a constant, conscious decision to carry out. Graham Cooke wrote: “We have to get our act together. We have to know who we are in Jesus and we have to know in ourselves it is our responsibility in the world to portray Jesus properly. The world is looking. The world wants to know what is God really, really, really like!” So if you are a Christian, show others what God is really like – totally trustworthy and reliable in all he says and does. Including the promise of salvation through Jesus Christ.

lion jobs available in the trade sector by the time the current Grade 7 Columneetza classes graduate. “You’ll be right in the thick of it and we want to get you thinking ahead.” Wednesday morning saw about 80 students from Columneetza cross the street and head to the TRU campus where they were immersed in a full day of hands-on learning; building birdhouses, electrical cords, welding together shoe scrapers and more. A student herself in the welding foundations class at TRU, Jaime Miller was one of the many TRU students on hand to show the Grade 7s the possibilities.

“I’m 70 years old and to this day I still love welding,” said local welder Norm Fellows, who volunteers his time every year to work with the students at YES 2 IT. “It’s a great program. I think it really sinks in when they go home –– the wheels start turning about all the options they have.” The program kicked off Tuesday evening with an information session for students and parents at the TRU cafeteria where SD 27 Coordinator of Career Programs Dave Corbett spoke of the opportunities currently available in the trades. “I want you to be inspired,” Corbett told the students, noting that B.C. expects to have as many as a mil-

YES 2 IT trades program another success Continued From Page A14 “Welding is a great trade to get into,” Miller said as she worked with 12-year-old Kyrsten Dickey. “The sky is the limit.” Dickey said she enjoyed the program and was impressed to see women working in the trades. “It changes some of the stereotypes –– I think welding is really fun. I might try it (when
I’m older),” Dickey said. SD 27 Superintendent Mark Thiessen said the first YES 2 IT event was held in Feb., 2010. Since then, the district has had three events in Williams Lake and one event each in Alexis Creek, Anahim Lake and 100 Mile House. “If students are exposed to the trades early in their school careers, they may choose their electives differ-

ently in high school and may actually make different choices as to how they will prepare for their future lives after school,” Thiessen said of the importance of the program Thiessen noted YES 2 IT is only possible with the support of community businesses, Thompson Rivers University, Taseko/Gibraltar, SMS Equipment, Finning, Mount Polley Mining Corporation, CIM, Williams Lake Home Hardware and EB Horseman. The event is also sponsored by the Industry Training Authority of B.C. Andrew Phinney, who runs the welding department at Gibraltar Mine and taught at the program, said he’s an advocate for education and loves being part of a program that promotes the trades. “I really enjoy seeing the students’ eyes get big as they learn something new … and the trades really promote a sense of pride in your work, that’s what I love about it –– making something with your own hands.” Columneetza teacher Mike Wilson agreed the day was a great success. “The whole day is such a positive experience. The students overcome their initial fears and really get into it.”

Flinton brings home silver medal for Canada Greg Sabatino Staff Writer Williams Lake’s Julia Flinton fulfilled a lifelong dream this month, donning Team Canada’s jersey at the 2015 Winter Universiade in Granada, Spain. The University of Saskatchewan Huskies defenceman also helped Team Canada to a silver medal at the event — a multi-sport, international competition for university athletes. “It was a great experience,” Flinton said. “Just to finally put the Team Canada jersey on was awesome … I went in with the mentality I had nothing to lose.” Flinton and her Canadian teammates opened the tournament with a 7-1 thrashing of Kazakhstan
To finally put the Team Canada jersey on was awesome ... I went in with the mentality I had nothing to lose.” - Julia Flinton on Feb. 4, before dropping a 3-1 contest to Russia on Feb. 8. In the semifinal Canada — with Flinton opening the scoring — eliminated Japan in a 5-2 victory to advance to the final. “To score in the situation I did was awesome and a really big moment for me,” she said. In the final Canada again met up with the
powerhouse Russian squad — stacked with eight players from the country’s 2014 Olympic Games team — at the Granada Sport Palace, falling 3-0. Canada outshot Russia 40-34, however, couldn’t solve Russian netminder Yulia Leskina, who allowed just two goals on 85 shots the entire tournament.
“We came together for the big game and that’s all you can really hope for,” Flinton said. “The Russian team was really skilled. Being from Canada there’s always the pressure to win gold, but they had a really good team, they played for the win and they deserved the win. “I think we played as well as we could have in
the final and that’s all you can ask for. We just couldn’t get it past that goalie.” The U.S., China and Spain rounded out the teams competing at the tournament. Flinton was named to the team in October by Canadian Interuniversity Sport as one of 20 university hockey players in the country. Flinton said without the support of her sponsors, West Fraser Trucking, the Tolko Truckers Association, Total Ice Training Centre, 150 Mile Tire, Husky Hockey, friends and family, none of her success would be possible. “A huge thanks to all of them,” she said. “Without their support I wouldn’t be where I am and wouldn’t have been able to go and experience that.”

Game one of the series went to Terrace in a 7-3 win Feb. 14. Puck drop Feb. 21 is 7:30 p.m., while the game Feb. 22 starts at 1:30 p.m. at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex.

Complex. “It was a really, really good weekend,” Montana said. “We’ve just been improving all season long.” Saturday, 100 Mile House’s Caitlyn Ray notched a hat trick, while citymates Breanna Uphill, Anya Leverman and Katie Toews, plus Williams Lake’s Melissa Rispin, each added singles. Tamara William earned the win in goal for the Timberwolves. The following day, Ray, Toews, Stefanie Martin, Eli Davis and Cassi Hogman each lit the lamp in the winning effort. Raylea Garland posted the win between the pipes. Montana pointed to a strong team effort leading to his team’s success. “As a team, every-
one had a really strong weekend. I think the biggest improvement on our team over the last while has been all six defence and both goaltenders were outstanding this week. “For them to all come together at the same time is really nice. Those scores are flattering and we worked for every one of those goals.” The play of William and Garland also provides the team with massive amounts of confidence, he said. “We were real nervous in the first period of that second game Sunday and she [Garland] kept us in there. Raylea making those important saves, Tamara making those important saves, they’ve been so strong for us and we believe
we have the best two goaltenders in the province.” The team will now schedule in a few exhibitions games to keep sharp prior to provincials, which run from March 16-20 in Penticton. So far, Williams Lake, Penticton, Kamloops and Terrace have qualified for the eightteam tournament. Montana believes the team has a good shot at bringing home a championship. “All season long we’ve been really emphasizing the fact that winning is a choice,” he said. “You have to choose to buy in, choose to work hard and choose you’d prefer winning over losing. Those choices give you your best opportunities to succeed at that.”

road trip in order to assist the Canada Winter Games with their need to use the club’s dressing room. “[We] have such a heavy travel schedule each year that visits to our local communities has been almost impossible in the past, however, we decided to take this opportunity to spend some time in Quesnel, Williams Lake and 100 Mile House,” Beesley said. On Tuesday, Feb. 24, the Cougars will be
on the ice at Total Ice Training Centre from 11 a.m. until 1 p.m., before shifting to the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex from 6 to 7 p.m. to practice with WLMHA teams.

Healthy environments make us healthier people Kerri Wall Special to Tribune/Advisor Human health is connected to the environment. We require specific conditions in order to thrive on our planet. These include clean air, fresh water, food, fuel, protection from UV radiation, and a relatively stable climate. These conditions are known as ecological determinants of health. When these determinants are threatened, our health is too. Now you might be thinking “that’s a nobrainer — everyone knows that” but have you ever wondered how you as one individual can influence such large global issues? I find it helps to think of two levels: personal health and global health. Both are important and we can make changes that improve both levels either separately or simultaneously. You could make a personal level health goal like walking for an hour on Saturday mornings with the dog. Walking regularly is proven to reduce your risk of chronic diseases. You could also make a global health goal, like moving closer to your place of work so that you don’t need to drive to work. When you drive less often your fossil fuel consumption decreases and that helps improve air quality. You can also combine personal and global goals for maximum impact. Setting a goal like biking to work three days a week is good for your body, your wallet, and the planet! We can start small and work our way up to larger actions. Try buying honey from a local, environmentally-minded bee keeper instead of buying imported sweeteners. Starting to compost
at home helps reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfills. Xeriscaping our
properties reduces water usage. We can also encourage larger change by advocating
for policies and programs that help protect our environment such as initiatives aimed at
reducing carbon emissions. Big change starts with small steps. Pro-
tecting our environment and our health is something we all can do.
Kerri Wall is a community health facilitator with Interior Health.
