Horgan is willing to take risks Provincial NDP leader in North Saanich for local consituency fundraiser at Glen Meadows

An ear for a parade Steven Heywood/News staff

John Horgan says he is giving the critics within the B.C. New Democratic Party the freedom under his leadership to take more risks. But is Horgan himself willing to take a few risks with the party’s political future? Horgan says he is. And when asked to offer up one risk he’s willing to take after 13 months in the job, he says it’s going to be reaching across the aisle to find common ground with other parties — and see if a more collaborative approach resonates with voters come the next provincial election. “As a party we need to be willing to consult with the public on changes the province is facing,” Horgan said prior to appearing at a fundraising Photo contributed by Ryan Painter dinner for Saan- MLA Gary Holman, left, and ich North and the NDP leader John Horgan. Islands MLA Gary Holman on June 4. “This could mean a change in government, or a change in how political parties themselves operate.” Horgan said he’s a fan of democratic reform — a passion shared by Holman who is currently leading the portfolio for the B.C. NDP. Horgan added the Saanich North riding itself is an example where better representation in the legislature might reflect voting realities.

Correction

The PNR’s June 5 story on the Town of Sidney’s plans for gateway signage and pedestrian shelter near the Anacortes Ferry terminal contained an error. Mayor Steve Price, in discussing the funds available for the sign and shelter, asked staff to seek different sources of funding for the shelter — not to re-allocate the $15,000 earmarked for the sign project in the economic development fund, as was printed June 5. The News Review regrets the error. Council was expected to receive a staff report Monday on alternate funding sources for the sign and the shelter, in order to complete both projects. — Editor

Grocery theft leads to 30 days in jail Theft charges stayed; woman sentenced for unrelated offences SIDNEY — A 35-year-old woman was

arrested on June 4 for allegedly stealing more than $1,100 in groceries from two Sidney grocery stores. Sidney North Saanich RCMP say they are familiar with the woman, who was found in her vehicle with $690 in groceries from Save-On-Foods and $450 in gro-

ceries from Thrifty Foods. However, the woman was not charged with the thefts. Crown opted to stay the charges as the woman was instead sentenced to 30 days in jail and a two-year driving prohibition for other charges unrelated to the theft. — News staff

Sky lantern sparks fire warning Jim Zeeben News staff

Photo contributed by Ryan Painter

B.C. NDP leader John Horgan greets guests at a June 4 fundraiser for Saanich North and the Islands MLA Gary Holman.

Team approach for NDP leader Continued from page 1

“In this riding, the MPs and the MLAs have been all types —NDP, Conservatives, Greens. All are approaching the problems of the day in different ways and in some cases, it could be better if [politicians] would work together. “This means hands across the aisle.” Horgan said he’s been in opposition for the last decade and has had plenty of opportunity to be rebuffed by the government in power. This, despite the fact that good percentages of electors voted for some other party and may never see their views represented. “Cynicism rises when politicians deny there’s a problem,” he said. This could be seen as a risk in B.C. party politics which has been volatile over the years. But Horgan echoes comments made to the News Review in the past by his MLA here — at the committee level and out of the public spotlight, Liberals and NDPers do work together, come up with solutions and find answers. Leave that environment, and the game goes back to the same old arena, same rules and same animosity. This dual personality of government is something Horgan said he’d like to see change. Horgan has been leader of the NDP for 13 months now and said he has settled into the role and his party is getting used to his leadership style. He said he believes in the team approach and wants to ensure MLAs and critics within the fold are free to pursue their passions — and free to make mistakes. “I think you need to trust people. I’ve been successful in allowing people to trust in their own decisions and build their confidence. They can take risks.” Of course, doing so in a 24-hour news cycle and a society glued to social media, means there always have to be ground rules. Yet, he said, trust must remain for people to be effective in their jobs. Horgan spoke to the News Review at length on his thoughts about health care in this province, as well as the future of B.C.’s economy. More on that in Friday’s edition of the PNR.

Sky lanterns might look picturesque as they drift up into the evening twilight but what goes up must come down. And with the recent run of hot weather, it doesn’t take much of an imagination to guess what might happen when a burning candle contacts tinder dry grassland. Last Friday night, at about 9:30 p.m., a Central Saanich resident spotted a glowing sky-lantern soaring across the evening sky. The concerned resident followed the lantern until it landed, the flame still burning inside. “You’re releasing open flame and you have no idea where it’s going to land,” said Central Saanich Volunteer Fire Department’s Assistant Chief John Robertson. “You don’t have to go far in Central Saanich to find forested areas or grassland.” Robertson said the sky lantern, which was brought in to the fire hall on Monday morning, was the first he’s seen but he is aware of the crafty creations causing serious problems in other jurisdictions. In fact, sky lanterns, sometimes known as Chinese lanterns, are expressly prohibited

Open Fire Bans in Coastal Fire Centre

Effective at noon on Wednesday, May 27, Category 2 open fires are prohibited in the Coastal Fire Centre’s jurisdiction to help prevent human-caused wildfires and protect public safety. This prohibition will remain in effect until Oct. 16, 2015, or until the public is otherwise notified. This prohibition covers all BC Parks, Crown lands and private lands within the Coastal Fire Centre, with the exception of the area known as the “Fog Zone” and Haida Gwaii. It does not apply within the boundaries of a local government that has wildfire prevention bylaws in place and is serviced by a fire department. Before lighting any fire, residents should contact local authorities to check if any other restrictions are in place.

Housing, or parking?

ringing affordable housing to the Saanich Peninsula was going to take a strong stomach if it was ever going to happen. Councillors with the Town of Sidney will have their guts tested as they work with the Greater Victoria Rental Development Society (GVRDS) to see if a proposed 52-units of workforce housing is even possible in the community. Apart from people’s knee-jerk reaction to the terms ‘affordable’ or ‘workforce’ when it comes to new housing, local leaders are going to have to be willing to make the concessions that will make such developments possible. With the high price of land working against them, the GVRDS has to ask for a relaxation of taxes and other fees if it can both buy the land at market value and pay for the construction in the first place. If none of that comes to pass, it’s conceivable that one of two things will happen: the lot will remain parking space, or will eventually be bought up for higher-priced housing that only compounds the issue of affordability on the Peninsula. The community, at various levels, has stated it want more residential spaces that are easier for working families, younger people and working stiffs to afford. Now it’s time for them to put their money where their mouths are. Diversifying the downtown will help, as Councillor Tim Chad says, put more feet on the street. Will this one project help solve all of Sidney’s economic issues and end the housing crunch here? Not at all. But it’s a start. We encourage people to take a close look at this proposed project — and to weigh the pros and cons as equally as possible. And that includes tackling the parking issue that seems to be taking centre stage. Building this project will remove one parking lot from the pool and it seems to be, so far, getting all the attention. We’d argue that this is a red herring. Yes, people seem to think parking is a problem in Sidney but if it’s a community worth visiting and shopping in, people will find that taking a few extra steps isn’t that big a deal.

BeefsAndBouquets We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all the kind people who came to our assistance when my husband had a fall on the street in North Saanich last Thursday evening. It was a frightening experience, and your support was much appreciated. It is comforting to know that good people are out there when help is needed. Ann Rogers A huge bouquet to the two girls who interrupted their bike ride on Sunday afternoon, May 10, to assist my husband who, moments before, had had a bike accident on the Airport path. The girls phoned 911 and when I arrived a few minutes later, an ambulance was already there along with two police officers. Because of the girls’ excellent citizenship my husband quickly received the medical attention he needed. We are very grateful to them both and extremely proud to live in a community amongst such caring people. Thank you again! I am sorry I neglected to get your names. Thank you as well to Officer Sean who helped me get the bikes home. Marion Farrant

The Stelly’s School Global Perspectives Program would like to thank it’s local community for the years of support for all of our fundraisers. Year after year local businesses, and community members support our initiatives to raise money for development projects and disaster relief. Each year I am astounded at the magnitude of support that we receive, from donated items, gift certificates, food and beverages. We are fortunate to live in such a wonderful, caring and generous place. Tim Storm, Stelly’s teacher Thanks you to the municipal crew who is putting new sewer and waterlines down on our street. They are so obliging and helpfull — so far I never had to wait more than a minute or two before the big machine is moved so I can drive through.

Affordable housing plan needs to be re-thought

s a taxpayer in Sidney I am disturbed to read in the Peninsula News Review that the Town of Sidney is negotiating with the GVRDS to purchase a town owned property on 3rd street. While I have no issue with subsidized housing, I believe this very expensive property should not be used for subsidized housing as the value of the land is high enough to require massive concessions to make the project viable. A less expensive piece of land should be found by the developer so that taxpayers are not required to make multi-year, extremely expensive concessions. If no suitably sized and less expensive piece of land is available in Sidney then the project should look elsewhere for a site. Sidney is served by excellent public transit and subsidized housing does not need to be located on the most expensive piece of available land in the middle of town as workers can commute by bus. Additionally, in a few years time I assume the adjacent fire hall site will become available for redevelopment and then the value of the two adjoining properties will be greater than their

individual value today so the Town should not rush into a development proposal but consider the best option for the residents who pay property tax now and will continue to do so and not sell the property to a developer who proposes to pay no taxes for 10 years. The Town has stated that it wishes to promote business in downtown Sidney. Removing a parking lot from one end of town and believing that a new proposed lot at the other end of town is good for business is not accurate. The Town needs parking at both ends of town for shoppers and business and it is false to expect people to walk from one end of town to do business at the other end of town on a good sunny day but to expect people to do that on a rainy day is foolish. I have discussed this parking plan with several people whose businesses are located close to the waterfront and they unanimously believe a lot at the other end of town will be of no or little value to them. Christopher Clack Sidney

I was appalled when I read the story in the Peninsula News Review about your plans for workforce housing in Sidney. Then I remembered that newspaper stories often contain errors. I hope this is one of them. The workers who should get the housing are those who are paid minimum wage or a little more, not rich people making $65,000 a year. One reason we need workforce housing is because employers either can’t or won’t pay their staff a living wage. Whether these business managers are greedy or have a poor business plan I don’t know. Businesses are closing for want of staff who don’t want to travel from Langford for a day’s work. The PNR story says the GVRDS intends to build on the parking lot most convenient for shopping. What a great way to chase away more customers and ensure that more businesses go belly up. If you’re going to build on a parking lot, surely it should be the one on Bevan that is barely used. Even better, tear down the courthouse and build apartments with a geo-thermal plant on site to heat all the public buildings on the block. We still need all the parking we have. People are not going to switch to public transit until it is more frequent and it can’t be more frequent until much greater density is achieved. Many residents who are able already walk. Car sharing

wouldn’t make much difference. We still want to encourage shoppers from other communities and the countryside to shop in Sidney and enjoy our events. They want to park downtown. There are already so many empty locations downtown we do not need another two floors of space competing for tenants. Pat Carson Sidney

Tolerance finds balance The PNR editorial on June 3 was thought provoking and insightful. Knowing ones neighbors is important for numerous reasons. Positive relationships built on respect and dialog open doors. Indeed, if a problem arises most folks are approachable if addressed in a civil manner. There are some grey areas. When retired people live in close proximity to young families, life can get noisy; we all enjoy peace and quiet when relaxing in our home and garden. Still, new families often have both parents working in order to support a home and children; this can be stressful with little spare time. Having worked shift-work for 37 years, I sympathize with how demanding it is to raise youngsters, and maintain a house and garden, with marginal time available to squeeze in extra chores. Retirement means having a choice to mow the lawn or blow the leaves, today, tomorrow or next week. Working cou-

ples do not always have that luxury; jobs have to fit in when possible, even if is at 6 p.m. on a Sunday. Tolerance and a wee bit of consideration make life balanced. Margaret J. Jestico Saanichton

From doctor to patient and back again Steven Heywood News staff

For Dr. Stan Marcus, the journey back into his own practice in Brentwood Bay was a long and arduous one. Marcus, a long-time chiropractor on the Saanich Peninsula and in Victoria, recently opened a new storefront clinic in Brentwood Bay called SpineCare, his fourth office since starting on the Island back in 1994. He says he has worked a lot, travelled a lot and always found a way to make friends and maintain a busy practice. That all changed a couple years ago when, not too long after returning home to the Island from a trip to the base camp at Mount Everest, he was struck down by an auto immune disease. Called dermatomyostis, it affects the skin

The condition is rare and Marcus says doctors could only specu-

treatment, he says, was the same as other autoimmune diseases: with heavy-duty steroids. The weakness and treatment both meant Marcus would be confined to the hospital for five months. “That was quite a journey,” he says, adding he always tries to remain positive — a trait he shares with his patients as much as possible. Upon recovering enough to return home to the Peninsula, Marcus says he worked his way back to returning to work. And about a year ago, he tried it, only to be hit by the same condition a week or so later. He had lost 50 pounds the first time and was now forced to stay at home for another six months.

Helping others make change Province won’t gamble on a Continued from page 9

“Mentally, going through that for a second time was so frustrating, but I did what I could to stay occupied.” Marcus says he contunued to try to stay healthy but he admits that going from being a doctor to being a patient was probably his most difficult adjustment. “I always made what I thought were good choices. I had barely used the medical system but in this case I found it was great in saving my life. “This has given me a better respect for what (doctors and nurses) do.” While he still harbours some misgivings about traditional medicine, and tries to avoid drugs that simply mask problems, Marcus

“I always made what I thought were good choices. I had barely used the medical system but in this case I found it was great in saving my life.” – Dr. Stan Marcus

says there is still plenty to appeciate within the medical system. “It was an interesting role, being a patient,” he says, noting that if doctors were prescribing things and could explain the reasons for it well, he was apt to go for it. And education about a person’s health and explaining all of their treatment

options has always been important to Marcus, especilly in his own practice. His experience as a patient himself, he says, has given him new appreciation for being in need of help and how to be an advocate for one’s own well being. After more than 30 years in the field, Marcus has reopened his practice. His Brentwood Bay office officially opened June 1 and he’s welcoming back former patients and taking new ones. Marcus adds he’s also taking it easy, working limited hours to begin with from Monday to Thursday. “It’s just myself right now,” he says, “and I’m taking it one person at a time, helping others change their world.”

Ferries gaming pilot project Gaming estimated to cost money, not make it VICTORIA — The B.C. government will not proceed with a gaming pilot on board a BC Ferries’ vessel. This decision follows a Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure review of a business analysis undertaken by the British Columbia Lottery Corporation (BCLC), with input from BC Ferries. The ministry agreed with the analysis, which determined that the potential revenues from gaming would not generate a return on investment at this time. Instead, BCLC estimated a loss of approximately $240,000 a year because of added staffing, IT and equipment. “British Columbians have told the government to explore new and innovative ways to keep ferry fare increases affordable, which is why we explored the idea of introducing gaming on the BC Ferries,”

FIND YOUR PASSION. FIND YOUR PURPOSE.

states Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure Todd Stone in a media release. “While the BC Lottery Corporation’s analysis showed that this idea wouldn’t make money, we’ll remain open to other revenue-generating services,” Stone continued.” Introducing gaming on board BC Ferries was an idea generated through government’s public engagement on the coastal ferry service as an option to increase revenue for the BC Ferries. As part of the mid-life upgrades to the Spirit Class vessels, BC Ferries is planning to expand the gift shop and relocate the coffee shop on board these vessels. Actions such as these, which take advantage of available on-board space to increase revenues, are in keeping with the government’s vision for an affordable, efficient and sustainable coastal ferry service. — Government of B.C.

Brentwood recital showcases talent More than 200 students take to the stage Steven Heywood News staff

Seven concerts and more than 200 performers later and the Brentwood School of Music successfully showcased the talent growing up on the Saanich Peninsula. Over the June 6 and 7 weekend, students from the school — young and old — hit the stage at the Friendship Community Church in Central Saanich to show friends and family what they have accomplished this year. “We were very pleased with the way the adults took part,” says Carrie Dujela, the principal teacher at the Brentwood School of Music. “Fifteen teachers encouraged their students, playing everything from violin, ukulele, all of the wind and brass instruments, a lot of voice, piano and rock bands took part to the delight of the teens.” Dujela said there were 239 students taking part in all — meaning about half of the school’s students took part in the recitals this year. The school offers a variety of programs — from the basics and trying out an instrument for the very first time, to rock band-style classes. “Our school has grown by leaps and bounds,” Dujela said. “And our ORFF program (teaching music for children through rhythm, poetry, dance and simple instruments, named for Carl Orff) ... is one of the school’s most successful programs.” The weekend recitals featured adults who have been learning new skills, to youngsters getting their feet wet, to long time students at Brentwood who gave their final performances as they graduate.

Rising tennis stars return to Panorama Women’s pro tourney begins Saturday with final on June 21 Jim Zeeben News staff

Don’t expect Genie Bouchard to play in North Saanich this weekend. But tennis fans will see plenty of other up and coming pro players vying for $10,000 in prize money when the Victoria International ITF Professional Tennis event returns to Panorama Recreation Centre, June 13-21. Bouchard, the current darling of Canadian tennis, is busy preparing for the world stage at Wimbledon. She’s living the dream of the 88 players expected to compete at Panorama. The event is hosted by Tennis Canada and Tennis B.C. and is the only event in Greater Victoria that features both cash and world ranking points for either of the pro tennis tours. “We have 13 players ranked in the top 1,200 coming,” Eric Knoester, who is organizing the tournament for Panorama, said in a news release. Players are registered from 10 countries, including Ukraine, Japan, Russia, Columbia, Mexico, U.S.A. and Canada. Among the rising stars to watch are Canadians Maria Tanaescu of Toronto, who won the Panorama Junior ITF in 2014, and Stacey Fung, a semi-finalist in the women’s event last year. Another name that will be familiar to baseball fans is Taylor Gruber, daughter of former Blue Jays third baseman Kelly Gruber. The Victoria tourney is a chance to test the waters of pro tennis and take another step to a possible appearance on the world stage. Admission to the tourney is free. Qualifying rounds begin June 13 and the athletes in the main draw start play on June 15.

Multi-use building taking shape

S U R F A C E

CENTRAL SAANICH — Students in Camosun College’s foundation construction program helped complete the concrete foundations of a new building at Heritage Acres recently. The students have been donating their time to the Vancouver Island Model Engineers club (VIME) to help complete a new multi-use structure. With room to expand in the future, the building will house both a display area for VIME and a washroom facility that’s close to the main rail station in the park. The project will cost the club around $35,000 and as of early in April, they needed approximately $12,000 to complete their funding. The club said last week that they have received more donations recently but will require a little more to finish off the project. To help, call project leader Claude Jolivet at 250-883-1328 and visit shas.ca for more about Heritage Acres. — News staff

This summer, swimming lessons at Panorama Recreation Centre take on a decidedly different flavour.

Life lessons learned during fun in the pool Sleepovers and French immersion swimming among programs offered at Panorama this summer Jim Zeeben News staff

Summer is here and the best way to beat the heat is at your favourite swimming hole. A love of water comes naturally for most children, for those growing up on the Saanich Peninsula, Panorama Recreation Centre is where many first learned how to swim. This summer, there is no shortage of opportunities for kids to learn the vital skill they will use for the rest of their lives. Among the popular choices for learning to swim at Panorama are the morning programs that keep kids in the pool from Monday to Friday. The consistency is a great way for kids to develop muscle memory and retain the information about what they’ve been taught. “It’s pretty intense,” said Miko Heddle, assistant aquatic co-ordinator. “For kids who are just out of school, this

program is something they can do every day and, because it is every day, kids really can master certain skills.” This year, the rec. centre is introducing a French immersion version of the Monday to Friday program. Kids learn their swimming strokes and water safety skills in a Frenchimmersion environment. Another program being introduced this year is the Junior Aquatic Club for kids between the ages of seven and 12. The club runs Fridays from 5:30 to 8 p.m., July 3 to Aug. 21. The program offers a positive group environment for any kid who really enjoys swimming, which can be a relatively individualized experience. “It’s a good opportunity for kids who could benefit from socialization who maybe don’t play soccer or other team sports,” Heddle said. “Kids are having fun and parents get to

have a Friday night off as well.” As well as swimming lessons, kids will get to create crafts and play outdoor games -- all while learning to appreciate a healthy lifestyle. “It’s about getting active and also understanding why it’s important to be active,” Heddle said. “Whatever good habits you develop when you are young will translate into good habits when you are older.” And if an evening at the pool isn’t enough, Panorama is also hosting a special night to give kids a chance to find out what really happens after hours at the rec centre. A Night at the Pool is a supervised sleepover featuring games in the park, a movie and even a little star gazing. Planned for July 17, the sleepover runs from 7 p.m. until 9 a.m. the next day. Snacks and a continental breakfast are included. For more informa-
