Strolling to raise awareness on child care Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Under sunny skies women and children in Williams Lake took to the streets Tuesday to raise awareness of the need for affordable child care in B.C. As they walked in a group from Boitanio Mall to Kiwanis Park some participated pushed strollers, others carried signs. Some of the participants did both. One sign read “Wake Up and Smell The Crayons,” another one noted “$10 a day” referring to the national push for a $10 a day child care plan. “Moms and dads are telling me it is difficult to find affordable quality child
care,” said Beulah Munson, manager of children’s services at the Women’s Contact Society. “It’s not uncommon for multiple families to visit me in one week telling me infant and toddler spaces are hard to find in Williams Lake.” In a resource-based community like Williams Lake, many people work after 5 p.m., Munson added, which makes it a challenge because child care isn’t readily available after hours. “It’s a community issue as well, “Munson insisted. “When professionals and business people are leaving because they cannot find child care within the communi-
ty they are unable to provide much needed services.” Shaunda Navrot, who joined the walk with her two-year-old son Emett and mother-in-law Eva Navrot, said she was happy with the child care her son was provided at a local child care centre when she was working as surgery nurse at the hospital. “But once I took a leave for medical reasons, I couldn’t afford to pay the $40 a day for the care,” Shaundra added. The walk was organized by the Early Development Childhood Network, a group that meets monthly in Williams Lake made up of agencies that serve children ages 0 to 6.

Shots fired early Monday at Glendale residence Angie Mindus Staff Writer Williams Lake RCMP are investigating a serious incident which saw seven shots fired into a Glendale residence just after midnight Monday. No one was hurt, however, the crime has prompted its victims, who were new renters to the house, located in the 1100
block of Mackenzie Avenue, to speak up about the experience. “At first it sounded like a Roman candle, like someone was setting off fireworks,” said one of the residents, who wished to remain anonymous due to safety concerns. The man moved into the three-bedroom residence March 1 with his girl-
friend, his brother and his girlfriend and his father, who is currently undergoing treatment for cancer. “Then we realized someone was shooting at the house,” he said. The man said he was out of his bedroom helping his father when the shooting occurred, while his brother and his girlfriend were sleep-
ing at the time. Both bedrooms were hit with gun shots, with one bullet going through a window, then a wall and falling on the floor beside their bed. “Nobody was hit, thank God, but we can’t live here anymore with this random act of violence.” The man said he believes the previous renters were well
known to police, and the latest incident was a case of mistaken identity — but that doesn’t make him feel any better about it. “This gang violence is overflowing onto people who have nothing to do with it. It’s pretty horrible.” The man’s father said he’s not afraid to speak up about the problem.
“If you say nothing, nothing happens. If you say something then at least it brings attention to the issue,” he said. “We won’t be the last victims, we’re just the next victims.” In all, seven shots were fired at the residence from a stolen Interior Roads vehicle — taken from an employee’s residence between 8 p.m.
May 10 and 5:30 a.m. May 11 — which was found abandoned in the Esler subdivision late Monday morning. Police in Williams Lake are asking if anyone has information regarding the incident to contact the Williams Lake RCMP at 250-3926211 or CrimeStoppers at 1-800-2228477.

ing anyone with unreported information regarding the untimely death of Price to contact Sgt. Rick Lebeuf of the Williams Lake RCMP at 250-3926211.
Price first reported missing March 3 of 2013 Continued From Page A1 He was first reported missing by his siblings and extended family on Mar. 3, 2013, after routine contact with
him ceased. Price’s truck was found about one kilometre from Likely on the Keithley Creek Road, pulled over on the shoulder, but pointed towards his home at
Cariboo Lake. Police determined Price was last seen alive Feb. 23. Still inside the vehicle were Price’s groceries he had purchased at the store, including food for his pet cat that
was waiting for his return at home. Price kept to himself but was known as a polite and respectful man, Police launched an extensive ground and
air search in the days that followed however failed to locate Price’s whereabouts. On Sept. 19, 2014 the Williams Lake RCMP received complaints of human re-

BODY MASS INDEX The healthy weight range widely used by doctors is based on a measurement known as the body mass index (BMI) Body Mass index is a measurement of your height and weight. You can have your BMI calculated at the site below. http://www.cdc.gov/ healthyweight/assessing/bmi/ BMI is not the only guide for finding out if you are at risk for diabetes and heart disease. Where you carry your weight can also be an indicator. People that are apple shaped which is carrying your weight in their midline are more at risk than people that are pear shaped which is carrying your weight in your hips. The best way to lose weight is to combine an exercise program with a healthy eating program.

Six of the recreation sites — Chilko-Taseko River Junction, Cochin Lake, Choelquoit Lake, Tsuniah Lake, Vedan Lake and Chaunigan Lake — are in the title area affirmed by the June 2014 Supreme Court rights and title case. The other four sites are outside the title area and include recreation sites at Fish Lake, Taseko-Davidson Bridge, Scum Lake and Little Eagle Lake. Baptiste said there are two more recreation sites within the territory. Big Lake, which is managed by Roland Class, and the Tatlayoko Lake site, managed by the Tatlayoko community.

Local truck drivers recognized LeRae Haynes Special to Tribune/Advisor Approximately 120 truck drivers in Williams Lake assembled at the curling rink on Friday for an annual event to recognize, appreciate and award drivers for their driving skills and their contribution to both their industry and their communities. Tolko Industries, Sigurdson and West Fraser Timber awarded prizes to their top drivers with the highest safety records, and long-time truck drivers Vic Bremner, Dennis Carman, Harold Eckert and Charley Grover were acknowledged for their years in the industry. The event included a barbecue lunch cooked and served by James Western Star, tables of door prize items generously donated from the community and a keynote presentation by well-known safety consultant Russ Dosenberg. “He does all the major fatality investigations, is a very good speaker and was

Truck drivers Dave Hooker (second from left), Tony Frizzi and George Dodd (on behalf of Jesse Hunt) were recognized by West Fraser, Tolko and Sigurdson for top compliance. On the left is Dennis Walker, who made and donated the set of outdoor lawn chairs for Truckers’ Appreciation Day, along with his wife Theresa Walker. very well-received,” stated West Fraser operations supervisor Amanda Black. “He included the truckers in the conversation, letting drivers know what their responsibilities are when it comes to regulations and compliance, as well as their costs, so they’re not caught unaware when something happens.” Bruce Combs has been helping to organize the event for 18
years, has been with the trucking industry for 35 years and has been on the Central Cariboo Truckers Compliance Committee (CCTA) since its beginning. “It’s important to recognize our drivers. They’re out in the public and drive on the same roads as we do, so we have to have them safe. We want to give them all the information and tools they need to do that,” he
explained. “When they do a good job we want to reward them, and this is how we do it.” Compliance committee members explained that the group started in 1996, when a memorandum of understanding was signed related to the amount of overloads being hauled by local drivers. A discussion with the owners and drivers resulted, to find out what could be done to reduce the
number of over-loads, and provide some benefit for the community. The drivers are required to follow the rules and regulations, but their penalties go to a good cause: supporting the communities where they haul. Tolko reported a total $189,029. and West Fraser $188, 927. so far in 2014/2015. Inspector Ed Marshall from Commercial Vehicle Safety and Enforcement is chair of the compliance committee. He said that the committee is recognized by the head of their program as an example in the whole province, and that Tolko has taken the concept provincewide. “The success of the compliance committee is well-known in B.C.,” he added. Combs said that the committee takes donation requests from wherever they haul: Likely, Horsefly, and throughout the Cariboo Chilcotin. “We haul to those communities,” he said, “and we give back to those communities.”

Music to my ears
B.C.: an event hosting destination
ON THE MAP
Y
ay, boo, and wow time. Yay to the 200 students from Cataline and Nesika schools who performed at the Up our Watershed! concert last Thursday. The kids were enthusiastic — their voices nearly blew the roof off the Gibraltar Room. Kudos to the performance team who kept everything moving smoothly, (no easy task given the numbers involved) and to Holly Arntzen and Kevin Wright from The Wilds who made it all possible. Well done. Only one downer — the Gibraltar Room simply wasn’t big enough for this event. Boo: A few weeks ago B.C. Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick said he knew foreign companies are acquiring productive farmland and replanting it with trees in order to claim French carbon credits, Connection but apparently he Diana French had no idea how much land was involved. Turns out it’s something like 8,500 hectares (so far) and it’s to stay treed (no cutting) for 100 years. How does this benefit B.C.? Incidentally, B.C. is the only western province that doesn’t have restrictions on foreign ownership of farmland. Yay, boo or wow depending on your political outlook, but when Albertans get tired of their provincial government, they don’t mess around. Pigs must be flying and hell freezing over because the New Democrats got a majority government after 44 years of Conservative rule. That’s quite a switch. One reason given for the change is said to be the large increase in the number of voters. Young people maybe? Workers from other provinces? Boo: Monthly employment numbers show Canada lost four times more jobs than expected in April. Meanwhile, Canada spends half a billion dollars creating auto sector jobs in U.S. and Mexico just as 1,000 General Motors workers are laid off in Canada. Yay: It’s lilac time in the Cariboo. The lilac is Williams Lake’s official flower and a favourite of mine. The fragrant blossoms are gone in no time but the bushes seem to live forever under any circumstances.

Our Viewpoint
Democratic process alive Last week’s Alberta election was an example of the democratic process at its best. We aren’t talking about the results. Whether or not the New Democrats can stabilize that mismanaged ship is yet to be seen. The reaction from the ‘right’ following Rachel Notley’s convincing win was predictable; the sky is falling. Meanwhile, the ‘left’ are thrilled. It’s the process to achieve the result that should give all Canadians pause for thought, and a reason to be thankful for the society in which we live. What happened in Alberta on Tuesday was, anecdotally, a civil upheaval — a coup d’état, but in a completely civilized manner. In many countries, such a drastic change of government would come at a heavy cost. Lives would be lost. Millions of lives have been lost in countries around the world in efforts to overthrow long-reigning governments. And yet, in our neighbouring province, the wounds were limited to the egos of those who thought change could never happen in that oil-rich, right-wing driven economy. The democratic process is alive and well.

Certainly, there were not nearly enough people getting to the polls. Although voter turnout was the highest in 22 years, 57 per cent is nothing to brag about when deciding the future of a province - higher than B.C.’s 52 per cent in 2013, but a far cry from respectable. The talking heads are still analyzing the results. Some say the arrogance of 44 years of power got to the Conservative supporters — that many of them thought there was no way another party in Alberta could ever garner enough support. On the other side, the “Notley Crew” is basking in the afterglow of a well-run campaign, feeding off the anger of the average Albertan. The lies, deception and ridiculous government spending had gone on long enough for the majority of those who took the time to vote and now the change they demanded is real. Will it prove to be a good move for Alberta? Only time will tell. Undoubtedly, B.C.’s NDP leader John Horgan has already not only congratulated Notley on her victory, but also asked for her campaign notes. - Black Press

id you know that currently, more than 100 sport events are hosted across the province each year or that B.C. hosts more than 30 major cultural festivals and events annually? B.C. is truly a world-class event hosting destination. From our prestigious mountain ranges that push west from The Rockies, to the beautiful spectrum of forestry, rivers, parks, trails and abundant landscapes across our province — it is the people that live within arm’s reach of nature’s richness that fill each region with so much culture, history and hospitality. In support of a five-year hosting strategy to support communities and organizations that MLA make our provMusings ince the destination of choice for Coralee Oakes sport and cultural events — our government recently announced a $250,000 one-time funding opportunity through EventHostBC. This funding encourages small events that strengthen volunteer capacity for event hosting through the province. Eligible non-profits are invited to apply for up to $5,000, awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, distributed to B.C.’s six tourism regions. The funding will assist in multiplying events and creating new ones that are currently ineligible for other provincial government funding. As the minister who is responsible for community, sport and cultural development in the province — I am looking forward to having this new five-year hosting strategy capitalize on the international exposure, building on the economic success received during the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games and the recent Winter Games. I am also pleased that our government will spend more than $60 million on artists, arts and culture organizations again in 201516. EventHostBC grant applications and eligibility guidelines can be found online at: http://www.cscd.gov.bc.ca/arts_culture/EventHostBC.htm.

world’s economies. The deficits were a necessary evil brought about by a worldwide financial crisis from which many countries have yet to recover. Also, your Jeff Rubin may have written two books calling for “economic disaster” but a few short years ago when he was Chief Economist for CIBC World Banking he also claimed gold would reach $5,000 an ounce. Be careful what criticisms you aim at the “tar sand’s nest.” Last time I looked the British Columbia Investment Management Corporation, with 74.1 per cent of its $75 billion administered for the public sec-
tor pension plans, held well in excess of $3.5 billion worth of shares in those “dirty companies.” The day I see a letter to the BCIMC written on behalf of public sector pensioners, telling them to reduce their pensions by the proportionate amount attributable to the “dirty companies,” I will believe they are true environmentalists and tip my hat to them. In the interim, I am sure they will keep filling their cars with that dirty fuel and using everything else that is made from the by products. Peter Philpotts Williams Lake
Event will be sorely missed Editor: I also was saddened to see the cancellation of the KidSport/ Dave Jacobs Classic, which was held for well over 20 years. At one time it was called “The Father’s Day Run” as it was held on Father’s Day. We ran in remembrance of our fathers. The run was one of the most beautiful runs the city offered as you looked out over the lake as you ran, and it seemed to take you away and make the run go faster!
My father, Bill Hembroff, walked the length of Vancouver Island and I ran in his memory. Dave Jacobs was a gifted runner and a gentleman. We ran in memory of Dave. He was a frequent patron at the Sam Ketcham Memorial Pool and the gym. He was instrumental in getting the lights on Highway 20 and the corner of South Lakeside Drive turnoff installed. His family returned each year from Vancouver and Victoria to help put the race on.

Gaps in citizenship processes not unfamiliar to Cariboo residents Editor: I read Marianne Piller’s letter in the May 6, 2015 Tribune with a sad sense of recognition. Her story is very familiar to me — there are many other people in the Cariboo region with similar stories. I began working for the Williams Lake Branch of Immigrant and Multicultural Services Society of Prince George in January of 2013. We are a non-profit organization which provides free settlement support and English Language classes for newcomers to Canada. Recent changes to Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC)

processes have led to long processing times and a lot of confusion. As Ms. Piller points out, some CIC offices have changed responsibility, so applications may have been sent to the wrong place. Fees have increased. Or online forms are revised. Or additional forms are requested. People have to re-submit their applications, sometimes more than once. This has happened with all programs, but the Spousal Sponsorship program has been particularly difficult for families. First, as Ms. Piller knows, simply marrying a Canadian does not make a person Canadian. Spouses do not automatically receive a Green Card as they
might in the U.S. The Canadian spouse must first apply to become a sponsor. If the foreignborn spouse remains in his or her home country, this process takes about two months. The second stage is to approve the foreignborn spouse’s application, which depends on his or her country of origin: it could take as little as eight months from Paris or Sao Paulo, or as long as 32 months from Los Angeles. However, if the couple applies for Inland sponsorship so that they can live together as a married couple in Canada, the first step of the process — approval of the Canadian spouse — takes up to 17 months. Then the second
step of the process — approval of the foreign-born spouse — begins. He or she may be asked to provide police checks, medical exams from accredited doctors, etc. The second stage is presently taking 10 months. This makes a total of 27 months. In Ms. Piller’s case, that means she could be granted permanent resident status by February 2017. Many spouses come to Canada on visitor visas, which means they cannot work, are not eligible for MSP, and cannot attend school or do training. If they travel out of Canada, they may not be permitted to return. Once their permanent resident application
is approved, they are required to pay an additional right of permanent residence fee of $490. Our office is open between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. from Monday to Friday. We answer questions about the process, help people find and fill out forms, and can help people check the status of their application on-line. Our services are free, and while we cannot speed up any process, we can assure people that their experience is unfortunately not unusual.

Health Awareness Nurses: with you every step of the way By LeRae Haynes Special to the Tribune Rhonda McCreight, nursing programs coordinator and nursing instructor Donna Bentham at Thompson Rivers University in Williams Lake say they greatly appreciate being celebrated during National Nurses Week. “It’s important to recognize nurses. They do so much for people and it’s nice to appreciate people for what they do,” McCreight said. “We pour our hearts out and it’s nice to get some heart back.” Bentham said that it’s great for nurses to be highlighted by the Canadian Nursing Association – acknowledging the roles and diversity of nurses, and promoting them to the public. “Nurses don’t toot their own horns: we are the silent force within health care, despite the fact that we’re the largest group of health care providers,” she explained. “There are over 36,000 registered nurses and nurse practitioners in the province, and even more with practical nurses and registered psychiatric nurses.” Bentham said that she became a nurse because of her mom. “As a nurse, mom worked as a night supervisor for 15 years, including emergency work. She was proud to be a nurse – she found it challenging, fulfilling, satisfying and always interesting. Growing up, I knew I would either be a teacher or a nurse, and now I’m both.” A nurse for 26 years, she said that besides giving her students skills, knowledge and information, she works to instill a balance between a personal and a professional life. “I want them to recognize that nursing is more than a job: it’s a profession. It takes someone special to be a professional,” she continued. “I love teaching nursing. It’s a two-

way street – you learn from your students, too. And I live for the ‘ah-ha’ moments.” McCreight has been a nurse for 20 years. “I was a biology geek and knew I wanted to do something with bodies, blood and guts. My mom said I should go into the medical field, saying I’d always have a job,” she said. “I guess it was a matter of propensity and economics.” She said she has been teaching almost her whole career, starting with prenatal classes while in basic training and neonatal resuscitation. “I went from teaching the public, to teaching colleagues and then to teaching students,” she noted. The TRU B.ScN program includes classroom work, hands-on practical lab training with simulations and clinical sessions at the Seniors Village and Deni
House for extended care, community maternity and child mental health rotation in semester three and acute care at the hospital. “At TRU in Williams Lake, students can complete the practical nurse course, the health assistant program and take the first two years of a four-year B-ScN degree. Going to school here really benefits local students,” McCreight explained. “There is good access and small, intimate classes. We know the students really well and help develop individual learning plans.” Bentham added that one example of their program flexibility is teaching the winter program on a four-day weekly schedule instead of five to cut down on winter driving for students “We get really good feedback on our adaptability,” McCreight continued.
“Students like that we’re willing to try new things.” She said that another great benefit for taking the nursing program in Williams Lake is clinic placement. “I think that a big part of celebrating nurses this week is giving back to our nursing practice partners at places like the hospital, Deni House, Seniors Village, public health, community health and mental health. They help us educate our students to be our future nurses. “Nurses don’t always get thanked, but it’s nice when you do,” she said. “Looking back at all my own health experiences, there was a nurse there every time.” For more information about the TRU nursing programs, visit www.tru.ca/williamslake/programs/nursingprograms. html or phone 250-392-8000.

The result is a computerized gait analysis report that provides a thorough clinical assessment to help the doctor prescribe custom orthotics, literally within minutes. The Metascan system has several uses both for the treatment and prevention of foot problems, especially among diabetics who sometimes can avoid lower extremity amputations with annual screening and gait analysis. As well, abnormal foot function can lead to ankle, leg, knee, hip and even lower back problems.
My View on Cancer By Joe Amaral Body Connection These days it seems that every time you read the newspaper or talk to a friend, someone has been diagnosed with cancer. You would think that with all the large sums of money that have been raised, that a cure for cancer would have been found. I believe that the reason for this is that there are many factors that cause cancer. Unless all these factors have been taken into consideration, cancer can’t be cured. The factors as I see them are as follows: 1) Diet – without a proper diet your chances of survival are slim (some of my clients are now believers in diet).
2) Emotional Stress - this can be a variety of things; it can be co-workers at work, meeting work deadlines, a death in the family, a relationship breakup or it could be childhood abuse (even after 40 or 50 years). Even if your diet is perfect but you still have emotional stress, you won’t be able to beat cancer. 3) Geopathic Stress – This is energy sources that can undermine your own energy source; for example: A hydro power line close to your house or cell phone towers. Also, telluric fields can cause stress. These can be Hartmann Grids or Curry Grids or underground streams. When I took my Geobiology course, I found a Hartmann Grid crossing a Curry Grid. When I stood on this intersection my stomach

My instructor informed me, that if I was to stay in that intersection, I would have gotten quite sick. 4) Your state of mind – your will to fight or give in.

All of these factors have to be dealt with if one is to have 100% remission. Some food for thought if you or a loved one are going through cancer treatments.

healthcare. It includes pain and symptom management, caregiver support, respite and spiritual care provided by a healthcare team. Palliative care services are available in hospitals, long term care facilities, hospices and in your own home. National Palliative Care Week First Week in May This year’s national campaign is ‘The Power of 10’ … Let’s Talk About Hospice Palliative Care! Education and increased awareness around the vital need for hospice and palliative care are the key components of this year’s campaign. One of the best ways to spread an important message is through your own social circles. Spreading the word about the importance of quality hospice palliative care is easy … talk to 10 people (friends, neighbours, co-workers) about the need for every Canadian to have access to that care if and when it’s needed. If everyone talks to just 10 people about this vital service, the hope is that this critical message will spread exponentially! So, do your part and start the conversation with 10 of your friends. Spread the word and ensure that every Canadian has access to quality hospice palliative care. Seedy Saturday First Saturday in May Bereavement Day Sunday, May 23rd As of March 23, 2011, the Order in Council of the Province of British Columbia has proclaimed the 3rd Sunday of every May as Bereavement Day in BC, acknowledging and supporting those in grief with the recognition that with increased public awareness, compassion and education, a person’s ability to adjust to their loss is greatly improved. We are hopeful that one day “Bereavement Support is an Essential Service.” Our ‘Memory Seed’ fundraising campaign kicked off at Seedy Saturday this past weekend. Look for our Memory Seed displays throughout the community at local businesses, as well as the Stampede Street

Plant memory seeds in memory of your loved one and wildflowers will bloom in their memory. On May 23 join us in Celebrating Bereavement Day as a Community. Hospice Volunteers Volunteers are the HEART of Hospice... without our volunteers there wouldn’t be a Williams Lake Hospice Society. Hospice volunteers provide support, comfort and empathetic listening to the individual and support for their loved ones. Volunteers encourage the client to share their story, listen to a client’s concerns, act as an advocate for the individual, provide respite for the caregiver and simply be a comforting, supportive presence. The most valuable skill a hospice volunteer can possess and share is the gift of LISTENING!! Williams Lake Hospice Society is always looking for volunteers to make a difference! Volunteers must complete a training course that helps them develop the skills necessary to be a supportive presence to the client and their loved ones. Communication skills, spiritual needs, pain management, symptom control and self-care for the volunteer are just some of the components covered in the training. In addition, volunteers attend
monthly meetings for further education opportunities as well as a chance to connect with the other volunteers. Volunteers are often asked, ‘Why do you volunteer for Hospice’? followed closely by, ‘I could never do what you do’. Volunteers generally respond by saying, ‘It is a privilege to be allowed into someone’s life at such a private, vulnerable time and make a difference by just being there and listening to and acknowledging someone’s life stories’. Please give WLHS a call. Find out more about how to become a part of our amazing Hospice team! 250-392-5430 for further information. It is essential that all Canadians have access to programs and services that make their end-of-life journey less lonely. Please help us continue to provide services allowing people to die with dignity, free of pain and surrounded by their loved ones. THANK YOU … Thank you to all our major funders: Province of British Columbia, Community Gaming Grant; City of Williams Lake and the United Way. Thank you to all the community service organizations, businesses, individual donors and our amazing volunteers for all your generous support! Without all of you and your continued support, there would be no Williams Lake Hospice Society! WLHS … making the road less lonely.
CMHA - Stigma and Mental Health By Janice Breck Crisis & Counselling Program Manager with Canadian Mental Health Association Cariboo Chilcotin Branch As a counselor at Canadian Mental Health Association, I feel very passionate about erasing the stigma toward mental health. When we think of stress as: something that happens when an imbalance occurs between the demands of life and the ability to respond to those demands without damage to the body or mind, it’s easy to see how fragile our mental health is. According to the Mental Health Commission of Canada, 1 in 3 Canadians will experience a mental
health problem at some point in their life. Yet many won’t ask for help because they feel ashamed or afraid of the stigma they will face; they may be treated differently, discriminated against, left out or avoided, just because they are struggling with their mental health. Seven important things we all can do to erase stigma toward mental health are: 1) know the facts – we are often afraid of what we don’t understand; 2) be aware of your attitudes and behavior – we can’t change what we’re not aware of or don’t acknowledge; 3) choose your words carefully – define the situation instead of the person. It’s not appropriate to call
someone “crazy” or “schizo”, or “schizophrenic”. It is appropriate to say “he/she is experiencing a mental health problem” or “he/she has schizophrenia”; 4) educate others – stand up for those who are being stigmatized; 5) focus on the positive – everyone has something positive to contribute; 6) support people – treat people who have mental health problems with dignity and respect; 7) include everyone – it is against the law in Canada for employees and those who offer services to discriminate against people who have mental health problems.

Cariboo Art Society collaborative show Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer Paint It Forward is the theme for the Cariboo Art Society’s 71st exhibition that opened last Thursday evening at the Station House Gallery. All year, president Cat Prevette explained the club has been working on the collaborative theme and Paint It Forward represents the work created with collaboration in mind. “We really didn’t know what we were getting into,” Prevette told the group gathered at the gallery for the grand opening. “Asking creative people who are notoriously individual to work together was a little like tackling world peace. “The odd time it didn’t gel but mostly we did amazingly well as you can see by the collaborative
projects around you.” One of their collaborative projects was to create individual Tshirts for themselves using a gel printing technique. Artists attending the opening wore their shirts as part of the show. “Gladys Wheatley mentored us in printing with gelli plates and that led to printing on our clothes,” Prevette said. Another of the collaborative projects was a four-seasons mural collaboratively painted by the artists in a weekend workshop with city muralist Dwayne Davis who also tweaked the works for exhibition. “In two days he had us painting like never before,” Prevette said. Two other segmented works, the Tree and Sunflower were also painted collectively by art society members.
“My husband Gordie is our much appreciated volunteer carpenter who mounts these and who framed the murals for us, Prevette said. The paintings, The Garden and a collage of teacups are examples of collaborative “drawing games,” Prevette initiated to relax the members and help them have fun just making marks on paper without thinking too much. “We had made the tea cups for last year’s show and couldn’t bear to part with them so we did what any self-respecting artist would do, we collaged them into a new work,” Prevette says. After the presentation visitors were invited upstairs to the education room to participate in a “drive by drawing” exercise in which anyone can participate no matter what their artistic skill or
experience level. “It’s easy,” Prevette said, in inviting people to join the art society. She also talked a bit about the society’s history being formed in 1945 by Vivian Cowan and her daughter Sonia Cornwall with encouragement from Group of Seven painter A.Y. Jackson, and another of the society founders Joe Plasket. She noted Julie Fowler has written a book about Vivian Cowan and Sheryl Salloumn has written a book about Sonia Cornwall. She noted film-maker Tina Dickey recently visited the group to talk about the documentary she is making about Plasket. “We have an illustrious history,” Prevette said. In June the show will move to the Signal Point event centre.

week and a perfect time to get involved in improving mental health in their community. As part of the Mental Health Week GET LOUD campaign, she says CMHA is encouraging people to register for the Ride Don’t Hide events in their local communities. To help raise awareness about mental health and reduce the discrimination and stigma around mental illness, CMHA hosts
the Shoppers Drug Mart Ride Don’t Hide, an annual community bike ride taking place in 28 communities across Canada. Shoppers Drug Mart is the title sponsor for the rides in B.C. Cyclists of all ages are invited to sign up at www.ridedonthide. com to ride with their friends, families, coworkers and communities to raise awareness and reduce stigma around mental illness.

There was a steady flow of visitors for the seventh annual Seedy Saturday and Community Corner/Cariboo Growers 5th Birthday Bash event Saturday. The celebration took place in the Community Corner parking lot at the corner of Oliver Street and Third Avenue and across the street in Herb Gardner Park. More than 25 vendors participated, many of them selling garden bedding plants and seed exchange, but
also food and drinks to go along with musical entertainment and children’s activities. The Community Corner in the former gas station building at the corner of Third Avenue and Oliver Street is home to Cariboo Growers, the Williams Lake Central Business Improvement Area office and Williams Lake Community Policing office. Community Policing chair Andy Sullivan encourages people to volunteer with the or-
ganization. The Cariboo Growers Farmers Co-op Store is a non-profit farmer’s co-operative that provides produce from more than 50 local growers, says Tatjana Lauzon, Williams Lake Food Policy
Council chair and Williams Lake community nutritionist. During the celebration, the Cariboo Growers co-operative was also raising funds to replace the walk-in freezer that has broken down.

Archers soak in sunshine at outdoor shoot More than 100 archers soaked in the sunshine during the weekend for the annual Cariboo Archers Outdoor 3D Shoot. After snow put a damper on last year’s shoot, this year’s weather was a welcomed addition as archers walked two courses — an ‘A’ and a ‘B’ — firing 20 shots on each course at foam-made, lifelike, animal targets over two days at various distances posing unique challenges for competitors. “The weather finally co-operated and the shoot went exceedingly well,” said Cariboo Archers treasurer Al Campsall. For those brave enough to enter, an ‘Extreme’ category was also
available. “Archers may enter to shoot 10 extremely difficult shots spread over the 40-target course,” Campsall said. “Many shooters do not like it as potentially many arrows are lost or destroyed hitting rocks, trees, etc.” In the extreme category Ernie Schmid picked up the victory in the traditional division, while Campsall won the compound division. The rest of the results from the Cariboo Archers Outdoor 3D Shoot are as follows: Male Cub Compound 1.) Matthew Samson 2.) Ethan Ratko 3.) Kyle Hubner

It was the largest turnout in years May 3 when the Williams Lake Golf and Tennis Club hosted its first tournament of the season — the Men’s and Ladies’ Opening Scramble. One-hundred-twenty golfers — paired up in teams of four — took part in the tournament. In scramble format golf, each player tees off on each hole, then the best of the tee shots is selected and all players play their second shots from that spot. The best of the second shots is then determined, then all play their third shots from that spot, and so on, until the ball is holed. In the ladies’ first flight it was the team of Marlene Anderson, Trina Siegmueller, Elsie Montgomery and Lorraine Taylor firing a net 61.35 for the win.

Skating coach honoured at ceremony Williams Lake Skating Club coach Joanne Macnair received a prestigious award May 2 in Burnaby at the Skate Canada BC and Yukon Annual General Meeting. Macnair was this year’s recipient of the Skate Canada Provincial Club and Recreational Coach Award, which goes to an individual who moves beyond coaching as a profession and truly contributes to the development of skating globally. The recipient is also a professional coach who contributes to the sport in a volunteer capacity within the clubs CanSkate, Test Program, Adult Skate and Synchronized Skating programs.
“A very caring and dedicated coach whose connection with her skaters creates a better learning experience for our sport and touches people in an innovative and special way,” Wilson said during the awards ceremony. “Due to this abil-
Race great experience Continued From Page A19 For French, it was her first time training for and completing a triathlon. “It was a learning experience for me,” French said. “I’ve done many running races and I swim a lot so being on a road bike was the challenge. Surprisingly, the swim to bike was the easy part. The bike to run was more of a challenge — getting off your bike to run the first few kilometres my legs felt like bricks.” Race day nerves also played a role, but French described them as addicting. “My dad experienced the morning excitement with me,” she said. “He was there bright and early to help get my transitions ready. He thought it was pretty neat to see all the athletes immediately become friends and help each other out with questions and tips.” The best part for

French, however, was crossing the finish line. Up until that point she said she’d questioned why she was attempting the feat. “When I crossed the finish line hand-in-
hand with my daughter, Tiera says to me after: ‘mom, I’m going to do a race like this all on my own one day,’” French said. “With a big smile, she answered my question.”

KOSHELANYK, Christine BA B.Ed. MLIS August 6, 1950 – May 3, 2015
Christine was born in Vita, Manitoba, to Lena (Stefiuk) and Marko Koshelanyk on August 6, 1950, and grew up in Caliento. Her early education was at Strand School, Caliento. After graduating from Shevchenko Collegiate in Vita, she attended U of M, took a year off, working as a waitress, and then enrolled again at U of M graduating with a B.Ed. in 1974. Her first jobs were in Grand Rapids and Thompson MB. Teaching jobs were in short supply so off she went to BC. Christine taught in Boston Bar BC, and worked at the Vancouver Expo from October to May in 1986. After graduating with a Master’s degree in Library Science she took a job in Williams Lake, BC at the Ecole Marie Sharp School where she mostly worked with grade four students and as a librarian. She remained there until her retirement in 2010. In the spring of 2011 Christine moved back to Winnipeg. Two of Christine’s goals were learning to drive in the city, and getting into shape; so she bought a new car, took driving lessons and did boot camp. More plans were to visit the Ukraine and a museum in Ottawa, volunteer at a library, maybe sub teach and spend a couple of months at some place warm in winter. Christine enjoyed traveling to Mexico and took a trip to Vegas with family. She also took an extensive trip to Europe with friends, this was the highlight of her travels. She went on a special excursion across Canada with a friend without arms as the driver. Christine started her cancer journey in late 2013, and through her battle with melanoma she never complained, but took each step with courage and determination, and continued to make plans for the future. Christine will be sadly missed by brothers Jim (Lee) and Tom (Marg); sister Marianne (Roger); eight nieces and nephews; eighteen great nieces and nephews; and numerous cousins, aunts and uncles. She joins her mother Lena (2010); brother Edward (2011); father Marko (2013) and an infant sibling. The family would like to thank the palliative care units at St. Boniface Hospital and Grace Hospice for their kindness and compassionate care. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Grace Hospice or St. Boniface Palliative Care or the Children’s Wish Foundation. A Celebration of Life Service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday, May 12, 2015 in the Gilbart Funeral Chapel, Selkirk, MB. A private family interment will take place at a later date. Gilbart Funeral Home, Selkirk in care of arrangements. www. gilbartfuneralhome.com
