UK company responds to local land sale concerns AUTUMN MacDONALD Observer Reporter
The company purchasing Cariboo farmland for carbon credits has stated it’s pausing land purchases while conducting an internal review. In May, the B.C. government spoke to farmland being purchased by foreign companies in exchange for carbon credits, noting a far greater hectare amount than originally thought. Initially government acknowledged 1,500 hectares of agriculture land reserve were being breached, then upon the opposition’s request, an additional 8,000
hectares was discovered. Upon hearing the concerns of Cariboo residents NDP agriculture critic Lana Popham held an open house in the Gold Pan City to further gather information. “The main thing we’re hearing from farmers is this legislation is essentially stealing food security,” she told the Observer in May. Popham also spoke to the manner in which the trees are planted, noting the close proximity, the lack of after-care and the method of leaving large divots in the soil, creating a hazard for farm animals and wildlife. The agriculture critic also noted the use of pesticides, water consumption and the

100-year land covenant. Now, due to the combined efforts of Popham, community leaders and residents, the United Kingdom company, Reckitt Benckiser Inc, has stated, they’re looking to work with the communities or cease operations. “This is great news,” Coun. Scott Elliott said, noting he initially became involved after local farmers began calling him with growing concerns. “If a company wants to help reforest, there’s other ways to go about it – without buying our farmland. “This is about our food security, our land security, our water security.”
Vehicle debris found on Quesnel River bank June 14, at 10:53 a.m. the Quesnel RCMP received a complaint of a possible motor vehicle incident on Baston Road where it crosses the Quesnel river. An individual was out walking and noted tire marks that appeared to have left the roadway and minor vehicle debris in the bushes leading down to the river. Police were advised that this individual walks the same route every day and stated that the tracks and debris were not there the day before. Police attended the scene and a primary search of the area resulted in locating a BC licence plate. Attempts to contact the registered owner of the licence plate have been unsuccessful to date
but are continuing. At this time the search of the area has expanded to include an aerial scan of the river. At this time the RCMP are not able to confirm if a vehicle or any persons entered the river and the Underwater Recovery Team (URT) has been called in to assist. The RCMP is requesting that if anyone may have been in the area the morning of June 14 to call the Quesnel RCMP at 250-992-9211. As it is still early in this investigation, no other information will be released.
Thief arrested A 31-year-old man is in police custody after an 82-yearold woman was robbed of money from her wallet in the
parking lot of a business on Reid Street. Around 10 a.m. Wednesday, the victim was in the parking lot of the business attempting to find change for a shopping cart. The suspect approached her, asked if she needed help, and offered to find some change for her. When the victim opened her wallet the suspect pushed her and grabbed some money from her wallet. Thanks to the quick responses by bystanders and statements provided by witnesses the suspect was located shortly thereafter by police and arrested. Charges of robbery and breach of probation have been forwarded to Crown Counsel.

Shiraoi reports loss of rental revenue
The Society reported their 2014 annual update to council reporting the Society’s annual events, financial information, membership information and the planned delegation scheduled to travel to Shiraoi, Japan this July. The Society reported the overall facility rental revenue has decreased significantly with the disbandment of the Sunshine Rotary Club which held weekly meetings at Shiraoi House.
Strategic framework Mayor and councillors will have a chance to lobby the province’s ministers on important matters at the upcoming Union of British Columbia Municipalities Annual Convention, Sept. 21 – 25, in Vancouver. This year, council decided to implement a strategic and integrated approach by creating a background document, that will be provided to ministers in advance and will: 1. Outline the transition Quesnel is going through and the pressures we face; 2. Describe the vision we have for our community; 3. Detail the concerted actions Council has taken, and intends to take, to proactively manage through this transition period; 4. Document the partnerships we are forming with key stakeholders
(Quesnel School District #28, Northern Health Authority, First Nations, Business and Industry, etc.); 5. Clearly describe the partnership opportunities Council desires to have with the Province; and 6. Make specific requests of specific Ministers and the Premier within the context of our broader, proactive, partnership framework. Further to this, council has submitted the following prioritized topics: Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure; • West Quesnel Land Stability Project • Highway 97 improvements, bypass and general safety • Link to New Gold Mines (located approximately 100 kms west of the City) • Purden Lake bridge circle routes for tourism • Moffat Bridge and Johnson Bridge links to arterial Highway 97 Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource; Operations • Community Forest update and as a support for tourism and heritage Ministry of Jobs, Tourism and Skills Training • Transition support Ministry of Education • School facilities and education budget Ministry of Advanced
Education, Innovation and Technology; • College of New Caledonia/Quesnel campus restructuring • University of Northern British Columbia/Quesnel campus - nursing program Ministry of Health • Medical Professionals Recruitment/Retention Cell-Guards – ArtsWells Festival Council received a first-ever request to consider assisting the District of Wells with cell-guard services during the popular ArtsWells Festival. Council approved cell-guard services for the ArtsWells Festival from July 31 – Aug. 3 providing all costs are covered by the Wells R.C.M.P. budget and that cell-guard operations are not affected at the Quesnel detachment.
Arena project In moving the North Cariboo Arena Replacement project forward, council approved selling city owned property that will be jointly owned by the City and the Cariboo Regional District, as well as partially closing a laneway, that will eventually house both the exiting Arena Two and the new West Fraser Centre. The intent is to have City crews to start work this fall installing water, stormwater and sewer lines to the site.

On a November evening in 2010, Cst. Aaron Kehler was just cresting a hill on rural Highway 27 when something caught his eye. Headlights from another vehicle were cutting through the tree line in the distance, just off the roadway between Fort St. James and Vanderhoof. At first, he assumed it was a snowmobiler out enjoying the evening. And from any other vantage point along the highway, it’s a detail he wouldn’t even have noticed it. But it was a pickup truck, and a few moments later it came full speed onto the highway from a snowy side road. The driver didn’t slow down for the road surface changes, didn’t yield to traffic, and sped down the highway ahead of him. Even as a rookie officer, Kehler could sense this would be no ordinary traffic stop. But he had no idea he was tracking a serial killer. “I didn’t think anything of it at first,” he said of the headlights. “Except that it’s an odd place for someone to be.” Kehler didn’t normally patrol the area; he was there transporting a lady’s purse that got left behind after she hit a moose earlier. He followed the truck for 10 km, until the officer he was meeting for the property transfer was in view.

In retrospect, the backup was crucial, considering what was about to unfold. It took some time for the driver to pull over, and when he did it was right under the only street lamp in the area. As Kehler spoke to the driver, 19-year-old Cody Legebokoff, things really took a weird turn. They noticed an open beer and searched the truck, finding drops of blood on Legebokoff’s chin and bare legs. He had killed a grouse, he told them, and there was a struggle. When they found more blood on the rubber floor mat, a stainless steel tool, and eventually on a pipe wrench, he gave the officers a story that he’d been out poaching a deer, with a friend. But there was no friend, and no evidence of a deer. And, he was wearing shorts. Snow inside the truck hadn’t melted,
and the blood all over the stainless steel tool had not congealed. This crime had just happened, they knew that much. And the body wouldn’t be far. A teddy bear backpack was stuffed in the door pocket of the passenger side, with the identification for a 15-year-old girl, Loren Leslie. They ran her name, and she was missing. A conservation officer was called, who travelled up the road that Legebokoff had emerged onto the highway from just moments before. He found Leslie’s body under a tree, and Legebokoff was arrested for her murder. Legebokoff is now in prison on four counts of first-degree murder, following years of investigation and court dates. At 19 at the date of his arrest, he is Canada’s youngest known serial killer. And had he not been seen on that lonely winter road by a police officer who
was there by random happenstance, Kehler said, it’s likely he would have killed again. “It was unexpected and I didn’t know what I was getting into,” Kehler said. “It went from one investigation to the next, and I was trying to sort out what was happening.” From traffic violation to Liquor Control Act violation, to a poaching charge, and finally to murder in about an hour. The quick thinking and intuition earned Kehler, a Sardis secondary grad, a Commanding Officer’s Commendation this April. But the case didn’t end there. “There were these unsolved homicides,” Kehler said. Major crime units stepped in and the senior officer noticed a similarity to the unsolved homicide of Cynthia Maas, whose body was found outside Prince George a month earlier.
The doctor performing the autopsy confirmed the injuries were consistent among the two victims. And there was yet another missing woman, Natasha Lynn Montgomery, who hadn’t been seen or heard from in two months. They were on the heels of a string of murders, and Kehler’s actions had stopped him cold in his tracks. “It comes down to the chance of me going down there at that moment, just cresting that hill at that moment,” he said, adding that all the circumstances played into it, right down to avoiding a possibly deadly crash just a few days prior. “It’s a blessing, for sure,” he said. Just like in his truck, Legebokoff left a messy trail that connected him to four murdered or missing women. There was DNA of Maas in his apartment, along with the murder weapon. Hundreds of droplets
of blood were found, along with footprints of blood with Montgomery’s DNA. Then they found the dried blood of what may have been his first victim, Jill Stuchenko, under his couch. Her body was found a year prior and her murder was still unsolved. They learned the couch had been moved from another residence in Prince George, and searching that home led them to find more of her blood. Kehler had to spend five days straight on the stand, testifying. It was the first time a defendant in his files had plead not guilty. Montgomery’s body has not yet been found, and the story is not quite over. “He is appealing,” Kehler told Black Press this week. “It’s been a long time coming and I’m glad it’s over, but it might all be starting back up again.” But for now, Cody Legebokoff remains in custody.

ABC triples retail space
Drop by the open house set for Saturday ANNIE GALLANT Observer Reporter ABC Communications has grown again. The company which was established in 1989 offering business telephone services, has grown to not only the best telecom business in Quesnel, but also as B.C.’s leading rural broadband internet service provider. “We’ve been offering cell phone sales and service since 1994,” ABC Communications CEO Bob Allen said. With the expansion next door to their existing outlet on Reid Street, ABC has tripled its retail space and the move has allowed the corporate headquarters to comfortably expand within the previous retail space. “Separating corporate from retail better serves both aspects of the business,” Allen said. The new retail space offers services on Telus and ABC products. “The opening of the new retail outlet is timed to coincide with Telus’ fibre optics expansion in Quesnel,” retail manager Amber Townsend said.
“Come in and discuss this option or any other aspect of your Telus product with one of the five fully-trained, qualified customer service representatives.” To launch their new expanded premises, ABC is throwing open the doors on a gala open house this Saturday beginning with a ribbon cutting at 9 a.m. with Mayor Bob Simpson and the cutting of a fabulous Quesnel Bakery cake at 11 a.m. Cariboo Radio will also be onsite from 9 a.m. – noon and there will be hourly door prizes. There are balloons for the kids and a grand prize draw for a Samsung Galaxy tablet at 5 p.m. During the festivities ABC staff will also draw for a Stanley Cup popcorn maker from entries by customers who have activated a new smart phone in the past two months. From the very beginning, ABC Communication has prided itself on local service, local staff and local commitment. “You can feel good spending your money with people who are firmly rooted in the community, are familiar local faces and they care about
providing the best service possible,” Townsend added. Retaining
the corporate headquarters in Quesnel is more proof of ABC’s commitment
to the community. “We’re here to stay,” Allen said with a smile.

A Celebration of Cheryl’s Life will be held in Quesnel at a later date.
Obituary Tribute
Eszter Szalkai May 30, 1927 - June 11,2015
Eszter passed away peacefully on June 11th. Eszter is survived by her husband of 52 years Andrew, her sons Stephen (Marta) and Dennis (Shannon) and her four grandchildren Daniella, Gabriella, Joshua and Olivia. Eszter Somogyi was born in Turkeve Hungary. She was raised on a farm where she developed her love for all God’s creatures. Her tender heart and care towards all animals would continue throughout her life. Ester’s studies at Sopron University were cut short when she and thousands of her countrymen left Hungary during the 1956 Revolution. Eszter came to Canada in 1957 completing her Bachelor of Science in Forestry at UBC in 1959. Eszter proudly became a Canadian citizen in 1962. She married her loving spouse Andy in 1963, first settling in Williams Lake then shortly afterwards moving to Quesnel. Eszter spent 30 happy years in Quesnel raising her sons. She was very proud to be a great wife and mother. In 1995 Andy
retired from Weldwood and they moved to Richmond. During this period Eszter was able to travel extensively throughout Canada, USA and overseas, creating lasting, happy memories for herself and Andy. Eszter’s family will never forget her faith, sacrifice, work ethic, generosity, humility and fighting spirit. She was a 25 year cancer survivor. Eszter felt blessed and was truly grateful for all the love and support she received from her friends and family in Canada and Hungary. We will miss her dearly. Special thanks to Dr. John Havens, Dr. Crowley, and the staff of Fraserview Intermediate Care Lodge in Richmond. In lieu of flowers please donate to the Alzheimer Society of Canada.

Published by Black Press Ltd. 188 Carson Avenue Quesnel, BC, V2J 2A8
Timing
ustice Minister Peter MacKay introduced a bill in the House of Commons this week that would, among other things, command tougher penalties for drunk drivers who kill people, including a mandatory minimum sentence of six years in prison. The current minimum sentence is a $1,000 fine. Almost immediately, the cynics were calling out the timing of MacKay’s Dangerous and Impaired Driving Act, insisting that this is nothing more than an election PR move by the Progressive Conservatives. That’s hard to argue, considering the government’s summer break is scheduled to begin next week and by the time it reconvenes, in September, the election will be less than four weeks away. There is zero chance of this bill being passed prior to the election, and the Tories will promise to prioritize this bill – this bill that THEY introduced – should they be re-elected. That said, in this instance, timing doesn’t matter. All that matters is that it is time for Canada to get tough on drunk driving. Not “tougher.” Just tough. A $1,000 minimum fine and no jail time for killing someone while committing a crime is ludicrous. And while the sentences for drunk driving causing death need to be increased, so too do the sentences for basic impaired driving. Sadly, our justice system is so lean on drunk drivers, the consequences for their actions do not outweigh their actions. Far too many people still refuse alternate transportation after an evening of drinking, because heaven forbid they should have to leave their car somewhere overnight. And as long as they don’t kill anyone on their way home, what’s the worst that can happen? Our government’s laws have no teeth when it comes to drunk driving. The bill introduced by MacKay goes a long way to changing that – not only for drunk driving causing death, but also for the basic act of impaired driving, as well as mandatory jail time (minimum 30 days) for drunk driving causing bodily harm (but not death.) Yes, the timing is poor and no, it won’t become law soon enough to prevent the next killing of an innocent victim at the hands of a drunk driver. But it is progress. –Black Press

ears ago I shared my regrets of not learning a musical instrument and encouraged my kids to take lessons. They were both keen on the idea and I recommended the guitar because of its portable versatility. One of my friends who was with us at the time said I should put them in piano because it would give them a broader knowledge of music, helping them learn other instruments. “Maybe,” I said having no idea if that were true. “But you can’t play a piano in the park.” Little did I know that five of them would be showing up in Kelowna parks one day. The first evidence I saw of this was in a recent video posted on Facebook in which my talented friend James Elser was playing one of the custom painted uprights in front of City Park and singing Paul Simon’s “Love Me Like a Rock” as people gathered around. Halfway through the five minute video a bystander spontaneously sits down beside him and starts playing one handed, eventually singing as well. That young stranger turns out to be Eric Disero, a gifted musician from Wild Son, a popular Kelowna band. The man filming them was
Lori Welbourne
On A Brighter Note Andrew Barton, the videographer friend of James who had just told him about the Pianos in Parks program. Since James was eager to play one, and Andrew had new film equipment he wanted to try, they decided to film a performance on the spur of the moment. As soon as the video was posted to Facebook it started getting shared and within five days it had been viewed over 29,000 times. Since then James has played the other four pianos that are located across from City Hall, behind the courthouse, near “The Spirit of Sail” fountain and by the Rotary Centre of the Arts. “There is something deeply rewarding and ethereal that feeds the soul when you play for the community,” James said. Of course James isn’t opposed to getting paid for his music and providing for his family either. He’s been playing clubs, lounges and
as well. There’s so much talent in the valley,” James said. “And Kelowna has such a diverse offering of venues for musicians to express their art.” And while this refreshing concept may be new to us, public piano programs such as this exist in many cities around the world - and the free spirited trend is growing. “The music community is getting stronger,” James said. James is performing again this year at Westside Daze on Sunday, June 28 at 7pm behind the Johnson Bentley Pool in West Kelowna where so many talented musicians and performers will be taking the stage. My kids will not be among them since their interests shifted completely away from music and landed squarely on sports. But that doesn’t mean they won’t play chopsticks on one of those funky pianos as soon as they see one. And they, like me, will enjoy the musical abilities of those wanting to share.

events for years and enjoys every chance he gets to do what he loves. He didn’t start off with those feelings though. At the age of 13 his mother put him in piano lessons and forced him to learn. He hated it for about a year until his eighth grade art teacher played the movie “Ragtime” and showed him how much fun it could be. “Brian encouraged me to learn songs I liked,” he said. “The theme to Hill Street Blues was my first ‘real’ song.” As an adult he took a lengthy hiatus from music until he met some members of a band called the Rusty Nails. Andrew Barton was one of the original members. “They’re from all walks of life, they’re not professional musicians,” James said. “ It’s an amazing group of people that love to play music, laugh and be together. If it wasn’t for their encouragement and love, I wouldn’t be playing today. I am forever in their debt for showing me how to have fun and enjoy music again. And that’s what I want to do for others - share the fun of music.” The pianos placed around Kelowna inviting anyone and everyone to play for free inspires that sentiment

Knowing your lifejackets
M
ost recently we’ve been using this forum to discuss the use of lifejackets and personal flotation devices. In terms of life-saving capability, lifejackets are the best choice, and there are three types to choose from: Safety Of Life At Sea (SOLAS), standard and small vessel. As set out under the International Convention for the SOLAS-type lifejackets are mandatory on ships of 300 Gross Tons or greater, and vessels capable of carrying 12 or more passengers (there are some exceptions). Standard lifejackets are approved for all vessels other than those in the SOLAS category and small vessel lifejackets are approved only for craft less than 15 GT. SOLAS lifejackets meet very high performance standards: capable of not only keeping the wearer afloat but able to turn a person on their back in seconds, even if unconscious, while keeping the head supported and mouth out of the water to protect the airway. Human pathology shows us that because of the S-shaped curvature of the spine, the body more easily bends forward rather than backward, resulting in a facedown position in the water for an unconscious, injured, exhausted or incapacitated individual. The majority of SOLAS lifejackets are of the ‘keyhole’ style. Standard type lifejackets are also of the keyhole-style and have slightly slower performance in the water than the SOLAS i.e., they will turn you on your back even if
Letters to the Editor
unconscious, but not as fast. Small vessel lifejackets come in keyhole and vest styles. They have less flotation than the standardtype and will likely be somewhat slower to “right” the wearer. Both SOLAS and Standard lifejackets are equipped with retro-reflective tape and a whistle, whereas these are not provided with all Small Vessel lifejackets. Lifejackets are available in only three approved colours to improve visibility in a rescue situation: red, yellow and orange, with each of the three types available in sizes appropriate for both adults and children. Be advised that lifejackets are generally bulky and uncomfortable to wear, but for the most part they are intended for use only in ‘abandon ship’ situations. The keyhole-style – which is the style found on all BC Ferries, for example – is quick and easy to put on, but that’s considering a time element that almost never exists when recreational boaters find themselves in difficulty. For the majority of pleasure craft operators and their passengers, a PFD is the preferred choice, and that will be our topic next time. The Quesnel Power and Sail Squadron is proud to promote Boating and Water Safety. Please support our efforts by encouraging your friends and family to always be water-safe.

Stellar performance Twenty-five kids, one teacher, one play and the Carson elementary Grade 5/6 class turned a gym into a magical fairy land. In June, Mrs. Halls’ class gave an amazing performance of Shakespeare’s, “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.” This was accomplished with a lot of practice, great costumes and excellent props. Work on the play started about five weeks before the performance. Students were involved in every aspect of the play – from costume and set creation to interpreting their characters. Stellar performances were given by Brayden Sass as King Oberon, Kally Lokken as Queen Titania, and Shawn Fisher as Puck. The four-starcrossed lovers in the play were portrayed by Aaliyah Harding, Luke Dykhuizen, Dayana Terlesky, and Mason Young. Every member of the class had a role in the play and each student took on the daunting task of interpreting their character and giving that character his or her own personality. Even the smallest parts were an integral to the play as a whole. When asked why she wanted to a play as part of her Language Arts curriculum, Mrs. Halls said, “Usually in Language Arts, students read the story, write the story, and discuss the story. Doing the play allowed the students to live the story.” Judging by the reaction of the crowd, the students lived the story to its fullest. As Shakespeare would say, “all’s well that ends well.” Contributed photo

The money raised in Relay For Life will help fund research, which is one of the best weapons against cancer. Because of funding, there is a much better understanding of the more than 200 diseases called cancer. There are more improved treatments and prevention strategies, which are helping Canadians live longer. Thanks to research, the five-year cancer survival rate has gone from 25 per cent in 1947 to more than 60 per cent today. Today, there are clinical trials all over the world investigating new ways to prevent cancer. A new drug called exemestane reduces the risk of breast cancer by 65 per cent. The trial was funded by the Canadian Cancer Society and was one of the world’s most important cancer treatment breakthroughs in 2011. Another trial funded

QDHPCA celebrates 30 years of palliative services ANNIE GALLANT Observer Reporter
F
or the past 30 years, Quesnel has been moving steadily forward on its comprehensive palliative care service, thanks to an amazingly dedicated group of supporters, volunteers and medical professionals. Quesnel now boasts a beautiful, dedicated hospice facility which provides patients facing a life-threatening disease with appropriate care in homely, well-appointed rooms and common areas services by professional, trained palliative care staff and volunteers. This facility at Dunrovin Park Lodge is the location of a celebration June 24 and the public is encouraged to drop by for the festivities. However, it wasn’t always the case. In Canada 1976, the first reference to palliative
care was coined by a Quebec doctor who drew from the word palliate which means to ease the symptoms when the disease is actively taking the patient towards death. “Before the palliative movement a patient’s death wasn’t addressed,” long-time palliative care advocate Carol Weremy said. “Doctors and medical staff never discussed the patient’s inevitable death.” Quesnel began investigating and addressing the palliative issue in 1985. Laurie Lawlor/McRae and Dr. Barber discussed concerns about patients with life-limiting illnesses and the need to control pain and symptoms. They approached the director of nursing at G.R. Baker Memorial Hospital as one component of a comprehensive palliative care service for Quesnel. Enter nurse Carol Weremy who was
approached to lead the palliative care medical component. “I have no professional knowledge of palliative care but I realized palliative patients needed better services [than could be provided in acute care wards],” she said. “It was a steep learning curve, I became a voracious reader on the subject and took university courses. I learned the first order of business in the hospital setting was pain and symptom management.” At the same time Weremy was busy, with many other committed palliative care proponents, establishing an association to draw volunteers, train them and coordinate their befriending service as well as providing insurance to cover their activities. In 1988, Quesnel and District Hospice and Palliative Care Association was formed and Weremy was the first president. The
association also included 12 board members with representation from all aspects of palliative needs. They actively recruited patient-care volunteers and a volunteer coordinator. One bed was reserved in the hospital for palliative care patients as long as it wasn’t required for a medical patient. “The first official palliative care patient in the one designated bed was Maime Armstrong,” Weremy said. “She spoke of how important it was to talk about the fact she was dying, a discussion many doctors and other medical professionals were reluctant to have.” Weremy went on to say it was and remains the association’s purpose to provide additional services (those not provided by the health care system) to help palliative patients achieve a healthy death where pain and symptom
management along with cultural, spiritual and personal peace are addressed because everyone eventually dies. Twenty-one years ago, the QDHPCA embarked on an ambitious project to establish a hospice unit in Quesnel and after 15 years of dedicated fundraising and agreements with health authorities the hospice unit at Dunrovin was opened in 2009 with three hospice beds and three respite beds. “On this 30th anniversary of QDHPCA we realize how far we’ve come,” Weremy said. However, she isn’t blinded to the work that’s still needed. The ongoing goals include: • Lobbying for the elimination of the $31/ day charge for hospice unit stays; • the need to expand volunteer services to everywhere patients are palliative;
• continue to educate health care professionals and the public on palliative care; • fundraise to supply hospice services. “We celebrate all the community has achieved with respect to hospice/ palliative care in Quesnel and area,” Weremy said. “We understand more needs to be done and the association and its supporters look forward to the challenge over the next 30 years. “This community has been amazingly generous in its contributions to advancing hospice/ palliative care services in Quesnel.” The community is invited to help QDHPCA celebrate 30 years of palliative care and six years with the dedicated hospice unit June 24 on the hospice deck at Dunrovin’s hospice unit, 1:30 – 3:30 p.m. Refreshments will be served.

Super Dave returns to Skyfest 2015 ANNIE GALLANT Observer Reporter
When asked why he’s called Super Dave, Dave Mathieson relaxes and begins an amazing tale. He was just 18 years old and flying a Cessna 180 float plane when the steering wheel broke off. Super Dave had to fly the plane by opening and closing doors and the manual effort of leaning back and forth. Despite several failed rescue efforts, Dave flew the plane for 52 minutes that way before beautifully landing the plane. Once on the ground he fainted. From the age of eight, Dave knew he wanted to fly. A glider flight and watching a Snow Birds performance, he was hooked. Thanks to Air Cadets’ pilot’s license scholarship program, Dave had his glider license at 15 and his power license at 16, the earliest age a person is legally allowed to fly. “As a career it was all about flight, at 18 I had my commercial license,” he said. He’s been a pilot for Air Canada Jazz, a bush pilot, started a float plane business in Greece, then went on to fly United Nations relief into Sumatra, charters in the Arctic, the Carribean and Maldives Islands. With more than 16,000 commercial hours of flying time in more than 160 different types of airplanes, some in test flights, he’s now a full time air show pilot. Super Dave is one of the featured performers at Quesnel International Airshow, Skyfest 2013, Aug. 3 – 4 and he said he’s quite looking forward to the show. “Quesnel has a great airport, its clean, well organized
and has a smooth runway,” he said. All elements important to the pilots. Super Dave said this type of flying is totally fun, but a lot of hard work. “Lots of hard time on the body – very unforgiving,” he said. “But this profession is very safe, everything is scripted and overseen by Transport Canada. Every pilot is evaluated through the Aerobatic Competency Evaluation.” He added he’s practiced his manoeuvres thousands of times. “I have a life wish, not a death wish,” he said with a big smile. For each air show the designated air boss provides an
air box with all the regulations and specifications for the show. Super Dave pilots a Scheyden MX2. It’s his third season in this plane which is the only one of its kind in Canada. “It’s completely constructed of carbon fibre which makes it lighter and stronger. You can’t break it in the sky,” he said. “My plane has the highest roll rate at 500 degrees per second. With 385 horse power I can fly at 300 miles an hour.” And Super Dave does love to fly. Beginning with the Twilight Show on Friday night, July 31 (tickets are limited, so don’t miss out) and moving into two days of sensational action with gates opening at 10 a.m. and show start at noon watch for Super Dave and the other jaw-dropping, spectacular performances..

Message from Quesnel Tillicum Society Aboriginal Day is a chance for First Nations people to get together and celebrate our customs, traditions and cultural heritage that have been handed down generation to generation. We share our customs, traditions, heritage with anyone that is interested. We celebrate with our brothers and sisters across Canada on June 21. This in a way helps us try to heal the wounds that still exist from the cultural genocide that was practiced
on us during the residential school era. The last school in B.C. closed in 1987 (not that long ago). We have activities, games and entertainment from the local First Nations community. We celebrate our differences and sameness. Every year the Quesnel Tillicum Society spearheads the National Aboriginal Celebration in LeBourdais Park with other local First Nation organizations, School District #28, First
Nations Education, North Cariboo Aboriginal Family Program Society (Longname), Ministry of Children and Families, Quesnel museum, RCMP, etc. to plan activities and entertainment for June 21. Canada Heritage funds some of our event along with First Nations Health Authority and College of New Caledonia, etc. Safeway donates food and staff to serve each year. We have more than 500 people from all walks of life
come and celebrate National Aboriginal Day with us. We have a huge cakecutting ceremony and live entertainment on stage for the entire event. We also celebrate Canadian Multiculturalism Day, Canada Day and Saint Jean Baptiste Day at the same time, but our main focus is First Nations activities.

Local track and field action WHITNEY GRIFFITHS Observer Reporter
Correlieu and QJS track and field athletes travelled to Langley for the provincial championships, June 4 – 6. Events saw 32 competitors from all across B.C. It was tough competition but all Correlieu athletes left the championships with personal best times and all athletes, apart from graduating student Konrad Teetzen, will be returning next year. Grade 12 student Teetzen is leaving high school track and field with a bang, improving by four seconds in the 400m which launched him into seventh place overall. He also improved his personal best time in the 200m by one second, taking ninth place overall in this event. Placing ninth in the steeple chase and improving his personal best time by seven second was Grade 11 Cole Dinsdale, competing against athletes in Grade 12. Dinsdale also ran in the 800m and 1500m. Olivia Baptiste raced in for 12th place in the 800m. She also ran very well in the 1500m, coach Pat Marsh commented. Running for the junior boys 100m and 200m was Nicholas Berlinquette and Josh Muir. Representing Quesnel in the 300m hurdles was Ryan Elden. Dane Jacobsen improved his time in the 800m and 1500m by seven and 10 seconds. Zach McCall competed in the javelin thrown at the event. From QJS, Grade 9 Avery Drew ran in the 800m race for juvenile girls, improving her time by four seconds. Coming in the top eight in two events was Grade 8 Tyson Barker. Barker placed sixth in the triple jump and the 100m hurdles. Practice continues for the local track and field athletes competing in the summer track events.

Nazko’s Cariboo Chilcotin Divers took on West Fraser at the Cariboo Fields. The Nazko kids all practice twice a week on Tuesdays and Thursdays on their very own baseball field, down by the river in the Nazko community. The team is made up of 20 kids ages 6 – 12. They have three games in town before the regular league kids take off for the soon-to-be starting tournaments. Unable to make it for practice three times a week the Nazko players are on an exhibition team so they don’t follow the same structure. The team is coached by Adam Walton and assistant coach Lauryn Boyd.

HAPPY FATHERS DAY Tickle Monster written by Meghan Pontius I was sitting in the living room, just watching television, When I noticed something lurking in the shadows of the kitchen. I caught a glance, and I was right – it was the Tickle Monster, Its fingers getting ready, like the pincers of a lobster. This Tickle Monster likes to come and chase me when he’s hungry, For it’s the tickles and my laughs that fill his great big tummy. I got up and started running – tried to hide behind a chair, But this Tickle Monster chasing me, he always finds me there! I ran again and jumped upon my bed under the covers, He sought me like a pot of gold – one he would soon discover. I could feel him sneaking closer, round the shadows of my room, When I heard him getting nearer I could feel a sense of doom. Then just like that he pulled the covers back onto the floor, That silly Tickle Monster then came at me with a ROAR! He took my feet within his hands and started going crazy, I squirmed around and laughed until my eyes were wet and hazy. He then moved up and got my knees – I just could not take more, But he kept those fingers tickling and was loving it, I’m sure! Up he went and found my neck, my chin and then my cheeks, His tickles then were less intense and causing fewer shrieks. I thought he must be getting full of all the laughs and tickles, Which was alright, cause I was tired and all run out of giggles. He stopped the crazy tickling and sat down upon my bed, His voice becoming calmer as a kiss dropped on my head. The Tickle Monster’s loads of fun, but when it’s time for sleep, He changes back to plain ol’ Dad—and he’s all mine to keep.
