Minister orders council quorum in Lantzville
Witness testifies in murder trial he saw beating BY KARL YU THE NEWS BULLETIN
The B.C. Supreme Court trial has begun for the man accused in the July 2013 death of 52-yearold Nanaimo resident Harry Glen Bickle. Leo Ronald Touchie, 24, was charged with second-degree murder after Bickle was found dead at his Haliburton Street apartment. The trial will see a 13-person jury rendering a decision. Among the witnesses testifying Tuesday was Dean White, Bickle’s roommate. According to White’s recollection of events on July 30, 2013, he met up with a group of people – including Touchie and White’s sister Rita – at a Duke Point beach. Alcohol was being consumed and White joined them in drinking. Eventually, they ended up at the apartment where Bickle was. White said alcohol was consumed. He said when he left for about 20 minutes, his sister was unconscious on a couch. Everyone seemed to be getting along, he added. Upon his return, White saw Touchie by Bickle’s bedroom door and Touchie was looking and pointing inside the room. White said he saw his sister, naked from the bottom down, on a bed. Bickle had his knees on the floor, his hands on her hips. Bickle had his shirt and his underwear on. White said he pushed Bickle off his sister and got his sister dressed. Touchie asked White if that was all he was going to do. See ‘TRIAL’ /4

Decision-making power has been given to Lantzville’s last three politicians. The district mayor and two councillors have been given the right to continue civic business by the B.C. government, forced to intervene after the majority of politicians quit and left council without enough members to legally make decisions. Second-term councillor Graham Savage brought council to a grinding halt Monday, after he added his name to a recent exodus of elected officials and senior managers. The resignation dropped the seven-member council below quorum, a move the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development can’t recall happening anywhere else. Since April, Lantzville has seen the resignation of its chief administrative officer, who left amid staff concerns of tone and decorum at council meetings. Jedha Holmes, director of financial services, and councillors Jennifer Millbank, Rod Negrave and David Scott have also quit. Council is like a rudderless ship, said Scott in his resignation letter, adding he hasn’t been able to determine the direction it’s heading. Savage called the last six months on council one of the worst and most negative experiences of his personal working and volunteer life and wants to see the provincial inspector of municipalities become involved in remediation.

Rally supports charitable cause I

hose who’ve got it are flaunting it for a worthy cause this week-
end. Darren Pedersen, of Nanaimo, will participate in the 2015 Diamond Rally from Vancouver to Whistler this Saturday (May 30). It takes an Aston Martin, Ferrari or at least a Cadillac CTS-V to roll up to the starting line of this invitation-only event, started in 2013. “It’s the first time in history in North America that they’ll have 20 McLarens in one spot at one time,” Pedersen said. The cars’ owners raise donations that directly support their favourite charities. Pedersen, in a 2012 Porsche 911 GTS, will join 98 other motorists heading to Whistler. “Here’s an opportunity for them to enjoy their cars, blast their passion or the thing that they want to support on their car and give them an opportunity to share that story and promote their own charities as well,” Pedersen

said. “It’s incredibly powerful.” Last year he raised $26,000 to win the rally’s
charity fundraiser cup. Pedersen, 44, is raising cash to buy equipment for the colorectal surgery
Computer equipment stolen from university
group at Vancouver’s St. Paul’s Hospital. He was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer in 2013 and survived through two major surgeries to remove a section of his large intestine, plus months of chemotherapy and radiation treatments. Pedersen lost his father to cancer and just six months prior to Pedersen’s diagnosis, doctors discovered that his sister, Kelly Schmidt, 33, had brain cancer. She underwent her first surgery in 2013 and a second surgery in January. Dealing with their illnesses, they’ve discovered there’s lots of information about cancer available, but little to actually help cancer patients fight the disease. “The biggest challenge for me was food,” Pedersen said. “What can I eat?” Pedersen and Schmidt started the Cancer Store to advise other cancer patients about everything from nutrition to tips on preparing for surgery. “It’s an opportunity to share our story, tell people about the things that we did that were helpful and what was a waste of money,” Pedersen said. For more information, please visit http://diamondrally.com or www.thecancerstore.ca.
Nanaimo police estimate losses of up to $60,000 after thieves committed two separate break-ins at Vancouver Island University and made off with dozens of computers and other equipment. The first of the break-ins happened Monday at about 5 p.m. in the media studies department located in buildings 340 and 345. Const. Gary O’Brien, Nanaimo RCMP spokesman, said several dozen computers were taken over a period of about two hours during the theft, which happened in daylight. “The theft is in the range of about $40,000 to $60,000,” O’Brien said. Based on records from sensors in the room, investigators determined the time of thefts. Someone came and went multiple times during the theft, likely loading the equipment into vehicle waiting outside, O’Brien said. Given the length of time and that the building lies adjacent to a busy road and parking, police are hoping witnesses will be able to provide information that could lead to identifying a suspect or a vehicle. The second break-in happened just before 3 a.m. Tuesday at the VIU Bookstore when a glass-break alarm was triggered. An Applebrand computer was taken with other items. O’Brien said security on campus spotted a man on a bicycle in the area at about 2 a.m. Police consider him a person of interest they would like to speak with. The individual is described as Caucasian, in his mid-20s, with brown hair. He was wearing black-and-white pants and was carrying a backpack. No security footage of the thefts is available, said O’Brien. Anyone with information is asked to call Nanaimo RCMP at 250-754-2345 or contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

White testified that Touchie then proceeded to jump on top of Bickle and “whale” on him with clenched fists. Touchie said, “This is what you get for raping somebody,” according to White’s recollection. White said he told Touchie to stop and Bickle did the same. Touchie eventually stopped momentarily, but began attacking Bickle again. White said Touchie was stomping on Bickle’s chest and crotch area. White said he eventually pulled Touchie off. Bickle rolled over on his stomach. White, his sister and Touchie then left the apartment. Both Scott Van Alstine, Crown counsel, and Stephen Taylor, defence counsel, declined comment as the trial has begun. The trial is scheduled to go until June 4.

Provincial Greens rally in Nanaimo
I
PArTy MET to discuss strategy.
By GreG Sakaki The News BulleTiN
Green-minded voters got together to talk strategy and try to generate enthusiasm. The B.C. Green Party held its conference, called Strategically Green, and its annual general meeting on Saturday at the Vancouver Island Conference Centre. A rally at Maffeo Sutton Park followed on Sunday. E l i z a b e t h M a y, leader of the federal Green Party, was in town for the weekend; though the federal and provincial Green parties are not affiliated, she is a member of the B.C. Greens and had a vested interest. “I thought it was great,” said May. “A lot of energy, a lot of people, a lot of professionalism to how we approach making decisions as Greens.”

Adam Olsen, interim leader of the B.C. Greens, put forward a motion for a leadership vote at the next AGM in 2016. “The last year has been an unprecedented period of growth and maturation for the B.C.

Gordon Head and deputy leader of the B.C. Greens, said at Sunday’s rally that his party is principled, honest and trustworthy. “They are qualities that are true to our heart and the reason why there’s a wave spreading across British Columbia,” he said.
May fired up the crowd at the park with criticisms of “Stephen Harper’s serial acts of vandalism as prime minister.” She said the Conservative government is ignoring a long-standing federalprovincial moratorium on supertankers and lamented “rip and strip resource extraction and export.” May said even months away from the federal election, it’s important to rally support because she said the Green Party is competitive in every single riding on Vancouver Island. “We need to make s u re t h a t w e ’ re spreading the good news that this is fun so that people will sign up and volunteer,” May said. “It’s a rally to generate the energy and the enthusiasm and the fun that carries us forward.”

Anglican church plans new hall
I
WORK SET to begin in next few weeks. By Chris Bush The News BulleTiN
An Anglican Church bishop will take the first swing with a sledgehammer to signal the demolition of St. Paul’s Anglican Church Hall. The hall, added on to the church at 100 Chapel St. in downtown Nanaimo in stages from the 193050s, will be replaced with a two-storey Centre for Ministry and Community Service. C h u rc h l e a d e r s decided to tear down the old hall after learning the building is not adequate for current and future use, even after it was brought up to code and made wheelchair accessible, said Colin Sheen, St. Paul’s building committee chairman. “One of the things was, that if we were going to expand our ministry and serve the people, first of all we had to look at

Colin Sheen, St. Paul’s building committee chairman, left, and St. Paul’s Anglican Church Archdeacon Brian Evans, display an architectural model of a new Centre for Ministry and Community Service that will replace the church hall at 100 Chapel St. A demolition ceremony will be held at the site Monday (June 1).
how do we bring our building up to being accessible for all people,” said Archdeacon Brian Evans. Cash reserves and a successful fundraising campaign among the church parishio-
ners raised the estimated $3.5 million needed for construction. “It will be a lot more f u n c t i o n a l , m o re meeting rooms, better use of space and up to date,” said Sheen.
The new centre will fit into the same footprint as the old hall, but provide nearly 930 square metres of floor space on two levels that will include a hall, kitchen, office space plus multi-purpose rooms and an elevator. “The demand in the community for our facilities is there,” Sheen said. “In the downtown, the demand for our facilities is huge and that’s where we view our ministry. That’s where we think we can really help the community.” Construction of the new centre will likely begin by the end of June, with demolition starting within the next two weeks. The first step in the demolition process happens Monday (June 1) at 10 a.m. when the public is invited to attend the demolition ceremony with Bishop Logan McMenamie. “The bishop is going to be here and ceremoniously kiss the building with a sledge hammer,” Evans said. photos@nanaimobulletin.com
Volunteers help in search for missing man Investigators have called Nanaimo Search and Rescue to help with the investigation into the disappearance of Jason Burns, 42. Burns was last seen May 4 leaving his assisted-living facility on Rosstown Road and has not been seen or heard from since. “The officers involved in the investigation have thoroughly reviewed his movements prior to leaving the home and hope the search of this area by NSAR may provide some clues to his disappearance,” said Const. Gary O’Brien, Nanaimo RCMP spokesman, in a press release.
Search and rescue members combed the area Tuesday and returned Wednesday to complete their search in a large wooded area near Burns’s home. Anyone with information about Burns’s disappearance is asked to please call Const. Jean Gelderblom of the Nanaimo RCMP at 250754-2345. u The RCMP hope the public can help identify a man believed to be responsible for stealing several hundred dollars from the till at the Westwood Campground, located at 380 Westwood Rd.
Surveillance cameras show the suspect arriving Monday at 5:54 a.m. riding a dirt bike, which was later reported stolen from Fourth Street. The suspect, who wore a full face shield covered with Rockstar and Fox stickers, forced open the till, took the money and drove away on the bike. The entire incident took less than five minutes. The suspect is Caucasian, appeared to be in his late 20s and wore blue jeans and a green or grey hoodie. The bike is a yellow 2015 Suzuki. Please contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or www. nanaimocrimestoppers.com.

Lantzville byelection date unknown From /1
He’s not interested in pointing fingers, but said the community has to heal and move on. “The only way to make it move better I think is for somebody to interject and new people get elected,” he said. “The four people who were around the table [Monday], we can’t fix this issue. A lot of it is interaction, trust, behaviours.” Mayor Colin Haime told the News Bulletin that Savage gave more concrete reasons than other councillors and made it understood that the mayor is the reason behind the resignations. “The commonality amongst all of the individuals that have resigned is that they opposed my election as mayor,” said Haime, who adds it’s not a question of leadership, but that four people are upset with the choice residents made last November. He thanks Community Minister Coralee Oakes for supporting the remaining council, which she’s ordered to constitute a quorum until vacant seats are filled in a byelection.
“
The commonality amongst all of the individuals that have resigned is that they opposed my election as mayor.
The minister was not available for comment and it’s unknown when a byelection will be held. A staff report previously indicated people could head to the polls this August. news@nanaimobulletin.com

Just call it the Vancouver Island Mental Health Society. The Columbian Centre Society has changed its name for the first time in 40 years to make it easier for people to search for its organization online and better represent the mental health services it offers. Forty years ago, the society was named after its founder, the Knights
of Columbus, which has worked well over the last 15 to 20 years when there was shame about mental illness and a desire for confidentiality, according to Dr. Barnabas Walther, executive director. Now there’s a push to make mental health more publicly understood. Walther also found that when he was doing presentations no one actually knew what his non-profit did. “The name was misleading,” he said, adding the organization wouldn’t come up online if someone

The newly named organization will be holding a screening event of My Father and the Man in Black at Vancouver Island University Friday (May 29). The film will be shown in building 310 at 7 p.m. For more information, please contact 250-758-8711.

EDITORIAL
Lantzville fails to solve issues
Three’s company, and it’s enough to govern Lantzville, for now. The province of British Columbia made the right decision this week when it empowered the three remaining members of Lantzville council to conduct the municipality’s business after four councillors quit in recent weeks. Graham Savage tendered his resignation Monday with the expectation that it would leave council without quorum and that the province would then be forced to intervene. Instead, the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development has invoked its legislative authority to allow Lantzville Mayor Colin Haime, Coun. Denise Haime and Coun. John Coulson to govern until a byelection can be held. This debacle should never have necessitated provincial government intervention. Obviously there was total dysfunction in council chambers, there’s plenty of blame to go around, and the mayor, as leader, has to be held accountable. But this wasn’t an issue that should have affected voters – it should have been an issue that stayed inside district office, an issue handled internally with maturity and common sense. Municipalities across the province make major decisions and deal with adversity all the time, and yet Lantzville couldn’t handle such elementary challenges as sharing and playing nice. So the community is left with a looming byelection. We suspect that voter apathy won’t be a problem – interest is sure to be high – and we expect there may be slates of candidates putting their names forward, adding intrigue. A byelection will restore a reasonable amount of representation to council chambers, but it won’t solve everything. The next council will still have to find a way to co-operate and make government work. Let’s keep in mind that Lantzville’s problems exist in a boardroom with comfortable, faux-leather wheely chairs. Some people, meanwhile, have real problems. The Nanaimo News Bulletin is a member of the British Columbia Press Council, a self-regulatory body governing the province’s newspaper industry. The council considers complaints from the public about the conduct of member newspapers. Directors oversee the mediation of complaints, with input from both the newspaper and the complaint holder. If talking with the editor or publisher does not resolve your complaint about coverage or story treatment, you may contact the B.C. Press Council. Your written concern, with documentation, should be sent to B.C. Press Council, PO Box 1356, Ladysmith,V9G 1A9. For information, phone 888-687-2213 or go to www.bcpresscouncil.org.
B.C. government goes long with LNG bid Opposition politicians that would compensate them were outraged over the B.C. if the new LNG income tax government’s latest effort to increases. secure its first major liquefied NDP leader John Horgan natural gas deal, announced last warned that “too much lolly” week. is being offered, with no word Premier Christy Clark, Natural of job guarantees for B.C. or Gas Development Minister Rich a deal with First Nations at Coleman and Finance Minister the proposed site near Prince Mike de Jong signed agreements Rupert. with Pacific Northwest LNG “My biggest concern is for a long-term gas royalty that we’re tying the hands of structure that could future governments run for 30 years.

the election cycle. With that in hand, their obstacles remain federal environmental approval and a revenue sharing deal with a First Nation to host a terminal. Pacific Northwest CEO Michael Culbert notes that answers to questions posed by the Lax Kw’alaams First Nation were submitted to federal regulators only days before a resounding no vote on a $1 billion share of LNG proceeds over 40 years. Does aboriginal title offer a veto over projects like this? According to the recent Supreme Court of Canada decision on the Tsilhqot’in case, the short answer is no. Objections could be overridden if governments determine a project is in the interest of the greater public. Talks have taken place with 19 First Nations affected by pipelines and facilities, and 14 have agreed. While they continue with Lax Kw’alaams and other Tsimshian Nations on the coast, it’s worth recalling that others are not so reluctant. The Nisga’a Nation has identified four sites as suitable for LNG terminals with a shorter pipeline route to the coast than Prince Rupert. ◆ Tom Fletcher is columnist and legislature reporter for Black Press.

Slip-and-slide leaves city dry To the Editor,
Re: Giant slip-andslide set for Harbour City, May 7. The Utah-based company Slide the City won’t be doing any business in California where thousands are already relying on bottled water because their taps have run dry. In B.C. we already all but give away millions of litres of water to Nestlé, so I guess our province was a good Canadian target. In Nanaimo, however, earlier this year our council considered imposing increased water restrictions because of a lack of snow melt that normally feeds our reservoir. I haven’t noticed any snow falling since
then, more like hot weather evaporation, but magically our council is now in position to stage a water party using 360,000 litres of our processed healthy water to entertain, at the maximum, five per cent of our city’s population, moreover further restricted to those who can afford to pay $25 or $65. But Mayor Bill McKay has that one covered. He’s hoping to score passes for people who otherwise couldn’t afford this slide experience that’s basically intended to amuse the well-to-do. Does council have a list of “less-fortunate people” to draw a lottery from? Or are they expected to

To the Editor,
Re: Third councillor quits from Lantzville district, May 26. I am so confused by all that is happening in Lantzville. But, the one thing that is very clear is that our very own mayor is not dealing with substantial issues with staff and councillors. ‘Side Show by the Sea’ is what we are and we need to be better. My belief is that to be better, Mayor Colin Haime needs to resign.

has captured the hearts and minds of our council members?
Edwin Turner Nanaimo
The ubiquity of cheaply made Chinese products, in a big-box-store-led world of cutthroat retail pricing (everyone chasing that limited number of pennies) is simply the natural progression of manufacturers focused on cutting their input costs, campaigns
against organized labour, out-sourcing, and now the greater economic efficiency in overseas suppliers where labour approaches the cost efficiency of the slavery that once dominated economic policy in the Americas.

The News BulleTiN
A few years ago Caroline Cecil was an aspiring figure skater with dreams of turning professional when everything dramatically changed. “I had a really serious accident where I had to quit just because I wasn’t performing as well as I was prior to the accident,” Cecil said. “I had no idea what I was going to do with my life because that is what I was really passionate about.” So the Nanaimoite decided to save up her money and travel overseas. “The plan was to go to Australia and work,” she said. But shortly before her planned departure date, fate would intervene in the form of the Sasquatch Festival in Grant County, Wash. “It was my first real big festival,” Cecil said. “I can’t even explain, but there is this feeling you get [at festivals].” Soon after, Cecil made the life-altering decision to become a DJ. “Instead of going to Australia I took all my money that was saved and I bought all my equipment and I broke up with my boyfriend,” Cecil said. “I quit everything and locked myself in a room and learned how to produce music.” It is a decision that has paid off in many ways for Cecil, who goes by the stage name Whipped Cream. In less than three years, the Woodlands Secondary School graduate has amassed millions of hits on her SoundCloud page, played to crowds throughout the province and is set to perform at one of North America’s premiere festivals.

Caroline Cecil, known as Whipped Cream will be spinning tracks at Koncept Nightclub on Friday (May 29). Cecil is scheduled to perform this summer at the Shambhala Music Festival in Salmo, B.C.
“The only reason I really skated, I realize now, is because of the music,” Cecil said. On Friday (May 29) Cecil, 22, will be spinning tracks at Koncept Nightclub. This past February, Cecil released her debut EP, Law of Attraction, to Unspeakable Records. The album contains three original songs that were mixed, mastered and produced by Cecil. “I love stuff that is going to make people get down and
move. I want to try and change what is going on and not be generic,” Cecil said. “The beautiful thing about electronic music is the possibilities are endless and I don’t have to be tied down to any genre.” After years of hard work, Cecil will realize one of her goals in August when she showcases her talents at the Shambhala Music Festival, one of continent’s biggest electronic dance music festivals, in Salmo, B.C.
“I heard from so many people that you have to be a DJ for five to 10 years before you play Shambhala,” Cecil said. “Last year I said ‘I am going to play it’ and I am playing now and I am just so grateful.” Cecil will be performing on the festival’s main stage and is part of a lineup that includes Pretty Lights, Griz and Kygo. “I am so excited,” Cecil said.

Writing workshop gets spiritual

WORKSHOP HELD at the Bethlehem Retreat Centre on Saturday.
An upcoming workshop hosted by one Nanaimo poet and writer intends to take participants writing to a “deeper place.” On Saturday (May 30), Mary Ann Moore will be hosting a writing workshop called Writing as Self-Compassion and Transformation at the Bethlehem Retreat Centre. “I’ll share some poems and we will do some writing together,”
Moore said. She explained that the daylong workshop is not about critiquing, but about taking participants work to a different level. “I think it will take their writing to a deeper place,” she said. “I always consider writing as a spiritual practice.” The workshop runs from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday and costs $125 and includes lunch. To register and for more information, please visit www. maryannmoore.ca or call 250729-2630. arts@nanaimobulletin.com

The electronic dance music and its many sub-genres has exploded in popularity over the past 10 years. But despite the growth, the industry is male dominated and has relatively few female DJs or producers. According to Girls Gone Vinyl, an upcoming documentary film produced by Jenny Lafemme and Maggie Derthick, the 2011 Movement Electronic Music Festival in Detroit only featured six female DJs out of 107 scheduled acts. “I try not to think that I am different than anyone else,” Cecil said. From being mistaken for a performer’s girlfriend to being taken slightly less seriously than her male counterparts, Cecil doesn’t let it faze her. “I think a big compliment is when they [the crowd] think I am a dude on stage,” she said. “I think it is so cool.”
Following her performance at Shambhala, Cecil will head to Southern California for a networking and showcasing trip and has set the bar even higher for herself. “By next year my goals are to play EDC in Vegas and I want to get into Coachella,” she said. When Cecil looks back at her decision to become a DJ, she has no regrets. “I love it all,” she said. “I love everything to do with it. I love the people I have met, the music I make, the things I have learned, I am very lucky.” Whipped Cream performs at Koncept Nightclub on Friday (May 29). The doors open at 10 p.m. For more information, please visit www.konceptnightclub.com. For more information on the DJ, please visit soundcloud. com/itswhippedcream or www. facebook.com/ itswhippedcream. arts@nanaimobulletin.com

Nanaimo’s Dylan Chapdelaine shares his thoughts after being presented with the Wally Buono Award on Saturday at the Nanaimo Sports Hall of Fame. The award goes to a junior football player who demonstrates both skill and leadership qualities.
V.I. Raiders grad wins Wally Buono Award BY GREG SAKAKI The News BulleTiN
A V.I. Raiders grad carried on a tradition by winning a national football award. Nanaimo’s Dylan Chapdelaine received the Wally Buono Award on Saturday at a ceremony at the Nanaimo Sports Hall of Fame. Chapdelaine, a linebacker, is the fourth Raiders grad to win the award, which goes to an outstanding Canadian Junior Football League player who demonstrates leadership on and off the field. Chapdelaine said it made his day when he was notified that he was this year’s winner. “I was really honoured
and it was a great phone call to receive,” he said. Buono was on hand Saturday to personally present the bronze statuette. The B.C. Lions general manager said every year, he’s reminded why the award program is worthwhile. Buono said Chapdelaine was the clear choice and is a man who understands the responsibility of leadership. “Everybody has a different leadership style. The thing that you can’t do is you can’t be afraid to lead, and for Dylan to step up and do it by example, that to me has more value at times than a person who’s rah-rah,” Buono said. “Because at the end of the day, people want to see what you do, they don’t want
“
The thing you can’t do is you can’t be afraid to lead.
to hear what you did.” The award is funded by the Saint Bernard Pass Charitable Foundation and has been presented annually since 2003. Previous winners from the Raiders include Jordan Yantz, Michael Schaper and Andrew Harris. Chapdelaine credited the Raiders program for
creating an atmosphere where guys succeed. “They put together a bunch of misfits and a bunch of studs and they succeed and players emerge, and good people,” Chapdelaine said. Now that his junior career is over, he’s on to the next stage with the UBC Thunderbirds program. He’s already been through spring camp with the T-Birds and said players at the CIS level are fast and smart. “I did well, but I know I’m going to have to alter my game a little bit and step it up,” said Chapdelaine. “I’m ready for that and prepared and I want to bring my game to the next level so I’m excited for the challenge.” sports@nanaimobulletin.com
The Nanaimo Timbermen enjoy the feeling of being in first place, but they know they have their work cut out for them if they want to stay there. The senior A lacrosse team, after sweeping the Victoria Shamrocks last weekend to start the season, is getting ready for its next game Sunday (May 31) against the New Westminster Salmonbellies. Cayle Ratcliff, captain of the T-men, said his team expected to be a contender in the Western Lacrosse Association this year, so two wins don’t really change the mindset. “[Last] weekend was two very hard-fought team wins and we’ve got to continue to do that…” he said. “As good as we played in those two games and battled, there’s still lots of room for improvement and we’re going to continue to jell as a unit. We’re not where we need to be, but we’re definitely in the right direction. We’re just getting started. We’re going to keep going.” Brody Eastwood, T-men forward, said the team won’t focus on what’s happened, but what’s yet to happen. “We’ve got two wins, but it’s a long season ahead. We’ve got to keep going forward, keep working in practice, keep getting better, keep being hungry,” he said. Coach Kaleb Toth said when a team is on a losing skid it’s important not to get too low, and when on a win streak it’s important not to get too high. “Don’t think you’re better than you really are,” he said. “We won those games [last weekend] from hard work and we have to continue to do that or else we’re not going to continue to win.” GAME ON … The Timbermen and the Salmonbellies play Sunday at 7 p.m. at Frank Crane Arena. Tickets, $12 for adults and $10 for seniors and students, will be available at the door. Kids 12 and under will be admitted free. sports@nanaimobulletin.com

Pirates look forward to tournament play The Nanaimo Pirates hope to get on a hot streak at the Langley Blaze Invitational. The Hub City Paving Pirates take a break from the B.C. Premier Baseball League season with an exhibition tournament in the Fraser Valley this weekend. Doug Rogers, Pirates manager, said two years ago the team was middling at mid-season, found its game at an exhibition tourney in Centralia, Wash., and was nearly unbeatable the rest of the summer. “It happens all the time in baseball and we’re hoping that this sort of does the same thing for us,” Rogers said. “We’re looking forward to it.” The Pirates will be tested, placed in a strong pool that includes the tough North Shore Twins and Victoria Eagles, File photo as well as Alberta’s Okotoks. Nanaimo Pirates pitcher Garrett “We always want Goodall throws against the Langto win, but mostly ley Blaze earlier this season. for the tournament it’s about getting going as a team and feeling that we’re playing well more than anything, more than the results,” said Sam Baker, Pirates pitcher. GAME ON … Next league action for the Pirates is June 7, when the Whalley Chiefs visit Serauxmen Stadium for games at noon and 2:30 p.m.

Beefs & bouquets BOUQUET To Sam at Brooks Landing Staples for his patience and help with my new printer. He should be teaching as it was my lack of computer skills that was the problem. BEEF For hijacking Empire Days. May 24 is a holiday to honour the birthday of Queen Victoria who was also queen of the British Empire. Empire Day was logical and should not be purposely misinterpreted. BOUQUET To the people at the Beban dog park who helped when my sister broke her arm. It was very nice of you. BEEF To the pedestrians who do not use crosswalks and do not look for vehicles.
BEEF To the people who don’t drive slower so our animals can cross the road without playing dodgeball. The new speed limit reads 120 km/h – you don’t have to go that fast. BOUQUET To the wonderful lady at the recycling bottle depot on Hayes Road. She must show many, many people how to scan their ticket, but she always does it with grace and patience. BEEF To the guy in the white roofing truck pulling a black trailer. Your rudeness has not gone unnoticed. That is not good business practice. BOUQUET To the flag people on Sherwood and King Richard drives, especially the lady in the white car who helped in finding our little dog, and to the people who took him in until his owners got him.
BEEF To the poor service provided by contract services refilling the doggie bag machines in offleash dog parks. BOUQUET To the City of Nanaimo staff who follow up on the complaints. BEEF To the customer who complained that I wasn’t smiling enough for her. She said, “looks like someone shouldn’t be working today.” You were so right – a good friend died four days before and I was upset, but I have to work in order to support myself. BOUQUET To Leanne at Long Lake Florist for sending me another bouquet of flowers for the booboo on Mother’s Day. I’ll be using them again. BEEF To the culprits who left the site of No. 1 Esplanade Mine disaster strewn with garbage, beer cans and fast food wrappers. Tourists from London could not believe it as they sent photos home.

Cathie Mulholland-Tesarek It is with great sadness that we let the community know that Cathie passed away peacefully, on Monday May 18, 2015. She was pre-deceased by her husband Jim, parents Alex and Jean and sister Nan. Cathie will be lovingly remembered by her husband Fred, sons Peter and Ian and grandchildren, Tanner, Kaitlyn, Jackson and Sean. Cathie loved and was loved across the country. A memorial service will be held on Friday, May 29th, 11:00a.m. at St. Columba Presbyterian Church in Parksville BC. This will be followed by a Celebration of Life in Collingwood, June 27th starting at 1:00 at her son Ian’s home, 44 Blackburn Crescent, Nottawa ON. In lieu of flowers, those wishing, may make donations to the Parkinson Society of Canada.
Jeffs, (Constable) Ella Marie August 31, 1923 - May 22, 2015
It is with great sadness, that our family must announce the passing of our dear mother Ella. Together, we know in our hearts that she lived an incredible life and that she is now gloriously reunited with our father Ted, her husband of 63 years. Mom was born in Wolsely, Saskatchewan in the Qu’appelle Valley. She was the eleventh of twelve children and spent a joyful childhood on the farm where she helped with strenuous chores and kitchen work and began her passion for loving people with food. Mom moved to Nanaimo as a young woman and worked in various clothing stores, one being Jean Burns Ladies Wear. She also went to work at the White Owl Restaurant, which was owned and operated by the Jeffs’ family, that is where she met Ted, love struck and Ella married Ted on July 26th, 1950. They were good Catholics and produced seven children.
Farkas, Barbara May March 1, 1929 – May 17, 2015 It is with sadness that we share our mother’s passing. Barbara was a free gypsy spirit and a strong woman who loved to travel, explore and adventure. Mom emigrated from Scotland in 1966 with her 5 children. It was not an easy life but many of her favourite memories were spent with her children. While not happy to live her life alone she certainly never let it slow her down; camping, cruising and gallivanting on her own. Mom was broken – hearted to lose her beloved sons, Alan Lornie (2003) & Ralph Lornie (2006). She leaves behind her son, Martin Lornie, daughters Babs Lornie McGary, Kate & (son – in – law) Alan Britton, her grandchildren Angela (Jordan), Lesley, David, Eric, Johnny, James (Laura), Farrell and Thea, and great – grandchildren Annika, Daniel, Emma and Trinity, as well as many dear friends, near and far. Whenever you enjoy a delicious tall ice cream cone, one of her favourite things, please let Mom dance across your mind with love and a smile. There will be no service by request. Barbara will be laid to rest at Ladysmith Cemetery on 4th Avenue. Rest in peace mom, you’re forever in our hearts. Condolences may be offered at telfordsburialandcremationcentre.com or telfordn@shaw.ca Telford’s of Nanaimo 250-591-6644
For those who love, time is not. Missing you today and always.
Mom was very social and made many lifelong friends through church, work life, neighbours and her frequent stays at the maternity ward. She adopted many of her childrens’ friends as her own. She loved to cook, bake, preserve and shared her talents for entertaining through all the seasonal festivities, birthdays, weddings, anniversaries and soothing the hearts of ailing friends. The Kinsmen presented her an honorary award for providing desserts for their weekly club dinner meetings. Everyone will remember Ella in their own special way but all would unanimously agree that they loved her infectious laugh, stories, jokes, cooking, desserts, eye-catching earrings and signature yellow clothing. Our greatest inheritance was learning Mom’s zest for life and her teaching us how to make everyone feel welcomed and loved. Mom enjoyed travelling the world on Dad’s business affiliated trips with the United Van Lines, cruising, bus tours and family vacations. She also thoroughly enjoyed the anticipation of winning the lottery and scratching the days away.

BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES
Mom’s pride and joys were her children, grand and great grandchildren. She would light up with delight whenever they dropped in for a visit. We were always thrilled when Mom/ Nana went to her freezer and pulled out a variety of cookies, scones, chicken wings, muffins, tarts, pies, cinnamon buns and marshmallow squares. Visitors were also blessed with Mom’s endless creations that were made with her love. A legacy that we will cherish long after the freezer and pantry are emptied for the last time. Ella was predeceased by her husband Ted in February of 2014, her parents William and Lillie Constable and her siblings Henry, John, Charles, George, Robert, Margaret, Mary, Grace, Violet, Joseph and Florence. Mom will be missed and survived by her children Ken, Cheryl (Ken), Marie (Adam), Gail (Don), Michelle, Mark (Julie) and Chris (Joanne). Her grandchildren Jordan, Brittany, Nicholas, Anton, Thomas, Brett, Dane, Kent and Kenadee. Her great grandchildren Zakary, Teddy, Brittannia and Mariah. Her brother-in-law George Jeffs (Evelyn) and Sister-in-law Shirley Vaillancourt and many nieces, nephew and dear friends. Please come and celebrate the life of this amazing woman on Saturday, May 30, 2015 at 11:00 am at Trinity Catholic Church, 6234 Spartan Road, Nanaimo, B.C. As Dad would often say: “When God made Ella he threw away the mold!”

Finkbeiner, Florence Annie (Flo) May 11, 1931 – May 20, 2015
Flo passed away at the age of 84 at NRGH after being sick for a long time. She was predeceased by her two sons Glenn and Lee. She is survived by her daughter Lynn; granddaughters Jessica & Carmen as well as 6 great grandchildren; also survived by her husband Don Finkbeiner. Flo was born in Saskatchewan, then lived in Alberta until she moved to Nanaimo in 1979 where she ran a business for a few years then volunteered at Princess Royal School in the library and as a Bears reader. Her ready smile and good nature will be missed by many. She enjoyed camping and as such, there will be no service and her ashes will be spread in campgrounds as was her wish.
