SPCA SAYS new rules show city cares for animals.

Both phases of the museum fundraising project are scheduled to be completed in time for Remembrance Day (Nov. 11).
First phase of veterans’ wall project completed BY CHRIS BUSH THE NEWS BULLETIN
Tiles bearing the names and service dates of armed forces and RCMP members were mortared in place at Nanaimo’s military museum this week. The work is part of an ongoing fundraising project for the museum, which kicked off in December, to create the Vancouver Island Military Museum Veterans Wall of Honour. The first phase of the project was completed Tuesday and Wednesday when 132 granite plaques were installed on the front of the
Centennial Museum building. Each plaque honours a local veteran. Brian McFadden, museum vicepresident, said response from the public has been strong and about 30 per cent of the plaques for the project’s second phase have already been sold. “We had people who came in and picked up applications months ago and then all of a sudden people started calling us saying they’ve got all their information together,” McFadden said. People can pick up applications at the museum, located on Cameron Road in downtown Nanaimo. Once information about the vet-

eran to be honoured is compiled, the applicant can pay $195 to have the veteran’s name, military service branch, crest and service dates installed on the Veterans Wall of Honour. The wall is open to any military or RCMP veteran from any allied service branch who served during war or peace. McFadden said museum staff hope to have the wall completed with 264 tiles installed by Remembrance Day (Nov. 11).

City rules could soon take a big bite out of pet owners’ pocketbooks if they’re caught leaving dogs in hot cars. Nanaimo politicians are one vote away from new rules and penalties for errant dog owners, including $500 for those who’ve left dogs in cars during hot weather. Changes to Nanaimo’s Licensing and Control of Animals bylaw passed third reading at an open council meeting Monday. Once approved, it’ll give animal control officers new power to levy fines at their discretion if canines are left in vehicles in hot weather without the adequate ventilation to keep temperatures below 23 degrees. They can also slap an additional $200 on pet owners if distressed dogs have to be rescued and impounded. It’s exactly what advocates have called for, pointing out that despite education campaigns

dogs continue to be left in hot cars. Bylaw changes would also ban dogs from being tethered with a rope, cord or chain wrapped directly around their necks, tied up longer than nine hours a day, and being any closer than three metres from doorways of public buildings. It would be the first time the city assumes control over animal welfare, a decision spurred by a request last August by the SPCA. Previously only the leashing and licensing of dogs were controlled.

Government signs job training deal

NANAiMO’S VMAC receives $34,000 to train 23 employees. By Chris Bush The News BulleTiN
Nanaimo-based air compressor manufacturer VMAC Global Technologies was the site for a signing event Wednesday between the province and federal governments. Pierre Poilievre, federal minister of employment and social development, signed a memorandum of understanding with Parksville-Qualicum MLA Michelle Stilwell, B.C. minister of social development and social innovation, and Shirley Bond, B.C. minister of jobs, tourism and skills training, finalizing approval for re-tooling of the existing federal-provincial job training deal. The modified deal aims to get unemployed people into
skills training and available jobs faster by directly engaging employers who know what jobs are coming available and the skills needed. “We’ve vastly increased the eligibility to those training dollars to include people who are not receiving EI benefits, so … people who are on social assistance and not on EI will be eligible to receive these training and job matching interventions,” Poilievre said. The B.C. government spends $331 million annually on employment programs through labour market development agreements and the Canada Jobs Grant, which focuses on short-term training. So far 1,400 employers in B.C. are approved for grants to train about 7,360 workers. “It really is about aligning the skills and training to provide those opportunities to the individuals here and VMAC is a strong representa-
tive in our community who is taking the lead in and showing how well it can come together when we form these partnerships between the province and business,” Stilwell said. VMAC will receive $34,000 through the Canada Jobs Grant, which Jim Hogan, president of VMAC, said would be used to provide 23 of the company’s 132 employees advanced skills training. Under the grant, employers must contribute a minimum one-third of total training costs. Hogan said VMAC anticipates growth and will need more employees. “Our hiring is driven by our success in the marketplace,” Hogan said. “We do see growth in our immediate future and when we do take in people then there are obvious training requirements and that is where this type of assistance will come in wonderfully handy.”
Dr. Sean McCarthy
Originally from Victoria, Sean recently moved from Kingston, Ontario where he practiced as a general dentist for the past five and a half years. He is a 2009 graduate of UBC dentistry with a UVic honours in biochemistry. As a family man he loves to spend time raising his twin two and a half year old daughters with his wife. Sean also enjoys hiking, fishing, soccer and martial arts recreationally.

Wildfire contained
A 6.5-hectare wildfire that is burning two ridges west of Mount Benson is fully contained, according to the Coastal Fire Centre. Two officers and three crew members from the provincial body were completing their final mop-up of the Boomerang Lake fire yesterday and preparing to turn the situation over to the landowner, said Donna MacPherson, fire information officer. The landowner, Island Timberlands, also has personnel and water tenders on site, according to MacPherson. The blaze was sparked Saturday. With no lightning in the area that day, fire officials believe it was human-caused. The exact cause is under investigation. MacPherson said the fire centre was considering a campfire ban in the coastal area, despite potential rain on Wednesday. She said to check www.bcwildfire.ca for updates prior to leaving for the long weekend.

The Regional District of Nanaimo board will spend upwards of $52,000 for a consultant to ensure rural area fire service delivery is up to par. The B.C. government originally released Structure Firefighters Competency and Training Playbook, a fire service minimum training standards guide, in September 2014. Amendments took

A consultant will be selected through a request for proposals and will work with regional district staff and fire departments to review the fire service support structure. Of the $52,000, $7,000 will come from the electoral areas feasibility reserve and $45,000 from the provincial basic grant. Recommendations made by the consultant to fire service levels and standards would be paid for through the 2016 budget process,
Idema said. Gabriola and surro u n d i n g i s l a n d s (Area B) would not be included as they have their own fire improvement district, which the regional district doesn’t regulate. According to the provincial playbook, June 30, 2016 is the date training levels must adhere to new requirements.

SSS Manhao has a new sixmonth window to get a building permit for a conference centre hotel. Nanaimo city council unanimously agreed to wait six months for SSS Manhao to get a building permit before it considers exercising its right to claw back the conference centre hotel property. The extension is in exchange for the developers
providing $100,000 toward Piper Park improvements and the loss of the first right of negotiation for the Vancouver Island Conference Centre. Coun. Bill Bestwick called it a more complementary opportunity for SSS Manhao to not have as many impediments in order to perform. Coun. Gord Fuller said he couldn’t give a “rat’s patootie” whether the extension was six months or 12 months. He wanted the right

Nine-hour tethering bylaw still one of longest in province From /1
“This has caught Nanaimo up and even put us ahead of many municipalities in taking a stand and insisting that we care and expect others to care for our community’s animals,” said Leon Davis,
Nanaimo SPCA branch manager. He’d also like to see the city revisit its new ninehour tethering rule in the future, pointing out it’s one of the longest limits in the province. The bylaw changes,
which go to council for final approval this July, hold appeal for dog owners Dan Nault and Debbie McBean. Nault called it great and said if people are fined once, they probably won’t do it again. McBean would like to see
a higher, $1,000 fine. “If you make it punishable that they think, holy crud, 10 minutes is going to cost me a grand, maybe they’ll smell the coffee and say I can’t afford it and my dog’s life is more important to me than
just putting it at risk for 10 minutes to go and do whatever,” she said. Animal welfare complaints will be a top priority. The city expects a drop in patrols of parks and beaches.

Cellphone used in indecent act Nanaimo Mounties hope the public can help identify a man who uses his cellphone to commit acts of indecent exposure. In two separate incidents, a man has allegedly placed his cellphone where it could easily be found after taking pictures of himself naked. Police say they believe he is targeting young adult women. The suspect is Caucasian, in his early 30s with short dark hair with a faux hawk and full-sleeve tattoos on his arms. ”These incidents are disturbing and we are working diligently to identify this individual and put a stop to his behaviour,” said Const. Gary O’Brien, Nanaimo RCMP spokesman. Anyone with information on this person or similar occurrences, please contact Const. Monique Scrase at 250-754-2345 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or go online to www. nanaimocrimestoppers. com.

Role models give aboriginal youth goals to aim for
survey gauges quality of life for community By Karl yu
By Karl yu
The News bulleTiN
The News bulleTiN
The Nanaimo Foundation is again seeking input for a quality of life report card on the Harbour City. More than 900 respondents took part in the 2014 Nanaimo Vital Signs report. While Nanaimo scored favourably in some areas, such as B-minus grades in ‘environment’ and ‘safety and security,’ it also received C-minus grades in ‘gap between rich and poor’ and ‘economy’ categories. Information will be gleaned from a variety of sources, including a survey, Statistics Canada, the Nanaimo Economic Development Corporation and Vancouver Island University. According to Signy Madden, executive director of United Way Central and Northern Vancouver Island and part of the Vital Signs community leadership team, the report was informative and more funding was offered as a result. Madden pointed to the Kids 4 Kids program at Georgia Avenue School, a drop-in program for vulnerable children, that was dependent on volunteers. Paid coordination and money for food was needed, she said. “[We] heard on the ground from people that this Kids 4 Kids program was something that we didn’t want to lose and we wanted to strengthen and so that’s one of the grants that is as a result of that,” said Madden. Nanaimo Vital Signs is compiled through a partnership with a number of organizations, including Nanaimo Foundation, United Way, the City of Nanaimo and Island Savings. “One of the main goals is to start conversations by pulling in existing statistics, existing information and pulling them into an easilyreadable format, and that’s one of the great benefits of Vital Signs,” said Tim Mawdsley, chairman of Vital Signs for the Nanaimo Foundation. To contribute to the report or for more information, please go to www.nanaimofoundation.com/ vital-signs and complete the survey. The 2015 report is expected to be made public Oct. 6.
“That was a cool event,” Groves said. “We co-ordinated the bikers, gave information to people who were around, did the goody bags and T-shirts – just whatever was needed.” Groves is also a big sister with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Vancouver Island. Michael Hill, 17, who just completed Grade 11 at Woodlands Secondary School, said volunteering situations and circumstances can force people out of their comfort zone, which builds confidence. “Helping people is very satisfying, but for me it’s a lot more self-confidence since last year – insanely so,” Hill said. “I’m ready to get a job now. I’m not as stressed about stuff. It gives the experience to get out and actually start talking to lots of people – getting thrown into places that you don’t necessarily want to be and you have to deal with it. It breaks you out of your bubble.” Tania Perry, 17, took on the role of program coordinator in May under a grant, but volunteers as well and said the program maintains a large core group of youths. “It’s pretty big this year,” Perry said. “It’s about 30 people, plus about 10 team leaders. It going to be a pretty big group, but it depends every year on who’s interested and who gets in.” “Way more youth should do it if they get a chance to,” Hill said. To learn more or become a volunteer, please visit the Volunteer Nanaimo website at www.volunteernanaimo.ca or call 250-758-7121.
The Snuneymuxw flag becoming a permanent fixture on Nanaimo City Hall Sunday was symbolic of a positive relationship that is being built in the community. The graduation rate among aboriginal students is at an all-time high at 64 per cent in 2013-14 and First Nations are represented on Nanaimo city council, the school board, the Greater Nanaimo Chamber of Commerce and the Regional District of Nanaimo, giving role models for youth. In fact, according to Chris Beaton, Nanaimo Aboriginal Centre executive director, role models are related to the graduation rate increase. “When you talk about youth and how they’re moving forward from the residential school legacy, is that they are beginning to see their brothers, their sisters, their cousins, their aunties, their uncles being successful in education, working more in mainstream society. “They’re seeing role models from their own community and I think that’s helping them move forward as well,” said Beaton. Erralyn Thomas, Snuneymuxw band councillor, said role models are very important to aboriginal youth. She said there are two ways of living in the world: “mainstream” and “Indian country.” “In Indian country, the way we learn in our culture is very hands on. Each family has a role and each individual in the family has a role within the family. It’s very hands on, it’s very mentorship-style, so it is the way of learning at home,” said Thomas. She said you have to follow someone that’s been there already and people can extrapolate that way of learning into the education system or the workplace. It’s a transferable skill and helps people succeed. Thomas understands why people may look up to her, being an elected official with a law degree from the University of British Columbia, but doesn’t see herself as a role model. “Having that time in a career for somebody to look at and say, ‘I want to be there,’ I think I’m just getting started,” said Thomas.

oung people are gaining experience and building confidence through Volunteer Nanaimo’s Youth Volunteer Corps. The Nanaimo Volunteer and Information Centre Society program, takes in young people aged 11 to 18. Skye Groves, 21 and a team leader, recently graduated from Vancouver Island University’s criminology program and hopes to join the RCMP. She joined the corps to learn more about her community when she came to Nanaimo in 2012. “We have team leaders and youth volunteers and we’ll go out with a group – I go with a group of younger kids usually – and volunteer at events, do whatever they need and all the youths do the same,” Groves said. Youth volunteers are in high demand and help out at dozens of events throughout the year, ranging from fundraiser garage sales to the Vancouver Island Exhibition. The most fun events for Groves were the downtown Easter, Halloween and Christmas events, and the Ride Don’t Hide cycling event to promote mental health and well-being.

EDITORIAL
Hot-dog bylaw is a cool idea The City of Nanaimo has decided to care for some of its four-legged residents, too. This week, city council agreed on changing an animal-welfare bylaw, seeking to keep dogs from panting in hot vehicles and also limiting where and how pets can be tethered. The municipality could have just let sleeping dogs lie, but instead decided to take some simple, straightforward and sensible steps to improve Fido’s lot in life. Animal advocates have been asking for a hot-dogs bylaw, and now they’ve got one. Pet owners who leave their pooches in unreasonably hot automobiles could, for the first time, face fines – hefty ones, enough to be a deterrent. This bylaw wouldn’t work without accompanying tethering rules, so dogs will have to be tied up in places where they can’t nip at the heels of passersby. While the city was on the subject of tethering, it decided, too, that dogs should be tied up more humanely, without choke collars, for example. Dog lovers will almost unanimously approve of this new animal welfare bylaw, because not only do they care about their own pets, but their hearts bleed for the mistreatment they come across in parking lots and neighbours’ backyards. This bylaw, as written, really will target only the most ignorant and abusive dog owners. For those who could care less about canines, the good news is that the bylaw isn’t going to cost Nanaimo taxpayers a nickel right now. The city will entrust its animal control department to continue to go about its business, empowered to enforce this new bylaw as it sees fit. We’re in for some sunny days and some hot temperatures in the months ahead and now people and pets alike will be able to enjoy the dog days of summer.

City should aspire to environmental goals To the Editor,
To the Editor,
Re: Environmental initiative worth prioritizing, Letters, June 16. The letter writer misrepresents our position in saying we favour the rights of industry over the “right of us all to clean air, water and food.” Our position is that making allencompassing and ill-defined rights a part of local bylaws or the Canadian Charter is simply bad policy. Bad policy leads to more regulation, litigation and higher costs for everyone, without quantifiable benefit. The Blue Dot Campaign is a solution in search of a problem. Empirical evidence supports our position that our local air, water and food supply are all in better shape than at anytime in the past. What is not in great shape is our local economy. Throwing more rules, regulations, bureaucracy and taxation into the mix will improve neither.

To the Editor,
Re: Blue dot is a red flag, Letters, June 11. Here on Vancouver Island, when I hear the grass crunch under my feet in late May, find, one month earlier than ever, June strawberries are finished, see our unripe gooseberries baking in the sun, witness the death of a young healthy apple tree, when neighbours’ wells are drying out in April, when I watch truckloads of trees drive away, with our forests that are losing their ability to absorb carbon and moderate climate, I quell a sense of rage at all those who ever ignored my pleas to care for our environment, to protect our water supplies, to live sustainably, to put people and nature before profit. It looks like people will not act to protect until they feel the pain themselves, and the rich seem to be the last to run out of the resources their greed thrives on.

Eco-school should be spared Cruise tourists aren’t coming To the Editor,
Re: Plan advises closure of four area schools, June 16. The school district is to be applauded for granting eco-school status to Departure Bay Elementary School, but in the latest facilities plan it recommends closing the school. A critical component for a school to engage and inspire student learning about nature is location. Departure Bay has a salmon-bearing stream, a local woodland and an intertidal
zone all within 200 metres of its front door. Community stakeholders have created a plan that could see many progressive and paradigm-shifting initiatives developed on the school site. An eco-school needs abundant natural resources close by to reach its potential. In my opinion this location is the best in the district for such a program. Regarding the capacity issue I would say, “if you build it they will come.”

Re: Blue dot is a red flag, Letters, June 11. The Blue Dot Campaign is not a profit-motivated venture. David Suzuki works for his foundation on a voluntary basis. Development and job creation need not be impeded by environmental consciousness. The near future will include many jobs associated with clean energy development through processes that do not devastate the planet. Industrial and infrastructure projects can proceed in ways that do not pose threats to water, air and food supply. Nanaimo’s city council responded positively to this proposal which was clearly presented as an aspirational guideline and not a binding agreement or resolution. Blue Dot recommendations will not “tie the hands” of those we elect to make decisions, but instead will further empower them.

uring the First World War the Allied forces were looking for ways to avoid being spotted by the Germans, especially on the water, as maritime travel was essen-
tial in those days. One of the ways the Allied forces attempted to avoid detection was by painting their warships in strange patterns consisting of lines or stripes, in what became known as dazzle camouflage. “They painted ships with these kind of designs as a way of confusing the enemy and to make it difficult for them to pinpoint them on the waters because of the illusion that it created with the patterning,”

said Yvonne Vander Kooi, Nanaimo Art Gallery art education coordinator.

Gallery engaging youth Frequent BATHROOM TRIPS? From /11
As technology becomes more and more prevalent in young people’s lives, Vander Kooi says it is important for the gallery to embrace digital media. “We are living in an age where youth have access to all kinds of images. The social media and digital media world is huge,” she said. “We’re embracing that as part of their learning in these various art disciplines by using digital media as a way of creating art and telling a story.” Dazzle Camouflage is a completely free program. The gallery received funding from the B.C. Arts Council and will be hosting the program this summer and next. Following the completion of the program, students will showcase their work at an exhibit that will be held at the gallery. While anyone who meets the requirements can apply, the program is designed for students who wish to pursue a career in arts or study arts at a post-secondary institution. Vander Kooi says students who participate in the program will gain experience that will help
“
They will come out [with] a pretty unique experience.
them going forward in their artistic careers. “They will have come out of a pretty unique experience that will have given them exposure to different disciplines, maybe disciplines that they haven’t tried before,” Vander Kooi said. Dazzle Camouflage takes place at the Nanaimo Art Gallery from July 20 until Aug. 14. Prospective applicants must provide a portfolio of their work. The application deadline is June 30. For more information, including how to apply, please visit www. nanaimoartgallery.com/index. php/learning/art-lab-dazzle-camouflage.

<In the past 10 years I suffered a lot with migraines. I would take four popular pain killers and none of them worked well enough. After I found MIGRAID, I was blown away because it really worked within 30 minutes with no side effects. I’m totally amazed. Absolutely floored. Michelle Woodman, 29, Crystal Falls, ON <I was in the hospital for two weeks. They performed tests including MRIs, tried every drug they had. Nothing worked. I was praying to die. My mom found MIGRAID in the health food store. It worked in ten minutes. I couldn’t believe it. I want to express my gratitude. Christy Logue, 32, Tulsa, OK < For fifteen years I tried all the OTCs as well as prescription drugs that were a lot more expensive than MIGRAID.

ACNE
Works by cleansing blood from the inside, instead of attacking skin with creams or washes from the outside and leaving the actual cause untreated. Actual Results. <After 1 week, my severe acne became quite mild and after two weeks, it had completely vanished. I suffered for five stressful years of having acne and extremely dry, irritated skin. Bell Clear Skin “saved my life”. My skin is now beautiful and you would never know I suffered from acne and other skin problems for years. Zach Lustgarten, 18, Oshawa, ON. RED NOSE/CHEEKS ROSACEA gone in less than a week. I was fighting it for thirty years with topical creams and prescriptions without getting satisfaction. I live a healthy life, don’t smoke and don’t drink. People thought a reddish face comes from drinking. This is a myth. Will take it for the rest of my life when needed. Donald E. Gillespie, 56, Innisfil, ON. PSORIASIS<I had severe psoriasis over 95% of my body. For the last five years, I have stunned every doctor and dermatologist. I spent tons of money on remedies. After I got Bell Clear Skin, I’ve never seen anything work as fast in my life. Within two days I saw my skin clearing up. I’m speechless. It was inexpensive compared with what I spent before. Jessica Shantz, 25, Dawson Creek, BC #60 NPN 80057652 ECZEMA For six years, my family doctor and dermatologist tried many medications and creams. After taking Bell Clear Skin for just a few days, my eczema itching stopped and my face started to clear up. After suffering so long I am amazed with the results. Andy Yuen, 58, Vancouver, BC.

Huichol, also known as Wixáritari, people are native Mexicans who traditionally live in the western and central regions of the country.

STEWART, LaVerne Hazel Dec. 16, 1924 - June 19, 2015 Born in Seattle, Wa., LaVerne passed away in the palliative care unit at Nanaimo Regional General Hospital. Predeceased by her son Norman, parents and brother and sister, she leaves behind Jack, her husband of 71 years, son John and numerous nieces and nephews. LaVerne was adopted by Frank and Winifred Cannon at four weeks old, growing up on Waddington Road and attending school at Brechin Elementary and St. Ann’s Convent on Wallace Street. Living in what was considered then north Nanaimo, LeVerne and her friends would hitch a ride to downtown by rail when the conductor of a daily train would stop near Waddington to give the teens a ride. Life would change forever for 19-year old LaVerne when she met Jack, home on leave from the Royal Canadian Air Force. The pair married Aug. 28, 1943, and lived in Cumberland where Jack was stationed. They moved to Nanaimo at the end of the Second World War and built their forever family home on Third Street in 1947. An avid gardener, baker and knitter, LaVerne shared with Jack a love of camping, tenting all across Vancouver Island and B.C.’s Interior with family and friends. Upgrading to a trailer in 1965, the Stewart’s travelled North America, visiting everywhere from Florida and the southern tip of the Baja peninsula in Mexico to the end of the road in northern Alaska. In later years, they flew to China, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia, South America and South Africa, and still found time to make a road trip to California twice a year to visit LaVerne’s relations. The family sends a sincere thank you to the wonderful staff in emergency, fourth floor and palliative care units at NRGH. A tea will be held in LaVerne’s memory at a later date.
For those who love, time is not. Missing you today and always.

(nee Widsten)
D
orothy Gea Thicke (nee Widsten) died peacefully with family at her bedside, at Berwick on the Lake in Nanaimo on June 16, 2015, where she had lived for the past 6 years. Mom is survived by her children; Marilyn Montgomery, Brian Thicke (Margaret) and David Thicke (Som) as well as 9 grandchildren and 12 great grandchildren. She was pre-deceased by her husband, Arthur Robert (Bob) Thicke on March 22, 2002. Mom was born on February 2, 1921 in Bella Coola, BC later moving to Ocean Falls with her older siblings to attend high school. She was the youngest daughter & last remaining sibling of the 13 children born to John and Gea (Fosbak) Widsten of Bella Coola: Clara (Oddy), Edna, Andrew, Clarence, Mabel (Goodie), Eleanor (Gran), Margaret (Hodson, Young), Georgia (Galloway), John, Donald, Marion (Reay), Dorothy (Thicke) and Edward. Dorothy met her husband Bob in Vancouver where they wed on Sept., 9. 1944. They lived for a short time in Tofino where they started their family then moved to Vancouver where their 2 sons were born. After living 16 years in Vancouver, they moved to Prince Rupert for 4 years, then to Victoria for 10 years until they retired in Lantzville, BC. 106775 Mom’s very large extended family was always quite central to their social calendar. Family events such as birthdays, weddings, family reunions and travel were always well attended by the many Widstens of all ages. Mom & Dad were very involved in the square dancing and bridge communities over the years and lived a very active life. Mom also enjoyed gardening, walking & lawn bowling. Together they travelled by motor home, airplanes and cruise ships to many parts of the world. Mom continued with many of these interests for as long as she was able. She always enjoyed being involved with the grandchildren and was affectionately called Gigi by the great grandchildren. We would like to thank the staff at Berwick On The Lake especially those in the care unit, where Mom spent her last few years. Their warmth and caring brought many smiles to Mom’s face and made this time of her life very comfortable and fun in spite of her advancing years. A celebration of her life will be held at the Nanaimo Ecumenical Centre, 6234 Sparton road, Nanaimo at 2:00, June 25th. A reception will follow the service. In lieu of flowers, please feel free to donate to the charity of your choice.

Earl Ferstel It is with deep regret that we announce the passing of our father, Earl Ferstel, who slipped quietly away on June 19, 2015, after a brief hospital stay. He was predeceased by Dolores, his loving wife of 61 years. He is survived by his sons Ray and Brian (Rhonda), daughter Stacy Wright (Dave), granddaughter Marcilyn Wright and her brothers Craig and Darrell, great grandchildren Jayne, Gabriel and Ian Wright and baby Brionna; his sister Rita Erhardt and many nieces and nephews as well as dearly loved in-laws. A heart-felt thanks go to special friends Susan and Ken Schleppie and Bill Purdy who supported Earl right to the end. Born in Regina, Saskatchewan to Ernest and Anastasia (nee Deutscher), the family moved to Kelowna in the 1940s. Earl and Dolores met as teenagers and were married in 1952. Earl explored a variety of careers, from running a welding business with his father to assistant mortician, railway worker to communications expert in the army and finally working for B.C. Tel until retirement. The Ferstel family moved to Nanaimo in the early 60s where Earl put his vast handyman skills to good use when he built the family home on Drake Street. Earl and Dolores became staunch members of St. James Anglican Church. Earl embraced the Cursillo movement and then became very involved in Kairos prison ministry. A part from Christian endeavors, Earl was a scout leader for many years and enjoyed classical music and fantasy and science-fiction stories. Earl’s funeral will be on Friday, June 26th at 2:00 pm at St. Paul’s Anglican Church, followed by a tea in the church hall. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Canadian Red Cross.

Fastball teams fired up for final stretch
I
WHEATSHEAF CLUB holding first place.
Sr. A Timbermen brace for tough Salmonbellies BY GREG SAKAKI THE NEWS BULLETIN
BY GREG SAKAKI THE NEWS BULLETIN
The Nanaimo Senior Men’s Fastball League has enjoyed a season filled with sunny days so far. “It’s the first time in our history that we haven’t had a rainout, so that’s been great,” said Todd Belton, the league’s president. The league has four teams this year, three in Nanaimo and one in Duncan. The Wheatsheaf Fastball Club has separated itself at the top of the standings, but all the squads are proving to be competitive. “There’s really good games,” Belton said. “A lot of tight games this year. It can go either way most nights.” There are two weeks left in the regular season for the teams to determine their playoff seeding. Everyone will make the playoffs, but the matchups are yet to be determined. The semifinals and the finals will both be three-game series. The finals will be held at May Richards Bennett Pioneer Park.
Nanaimo News Bulletin 25
GREG SAKAKI/THE NEWS BULLETIN
Wheatsheaf Fastball Club first baseman Gord Mainwaring fields a grounder during Tuesday’s Nanaimo Senior Men’s Fastball League game against Baker Supply at May Richards Bennett Pioneer Park.
“It’s going to be good ball,” Belton said. “There’s good rivalries now, so we’ll see how it goes.” GAME ON … The next local league game is Tuesday (June 30), when the Wheatsheaf team visits the Lantzville Village Pub team at 6:30 p.m. at Pioneer Park. On July 2, Baker Supply visits the Wheaties at 6:30 p.m. at the Wheatsheaf field complex in Cedar. sports@nanaimobulletin.com
THE NEWS BULLETIN
Wheatsheaf baserunner Tim Allan, left, breaks for third base and Baker Supply second baseman Tyler Bates backs up the play as his teammate Ty Laughlin throws to first during Tuesday night’s game at Pioneer Park.
The Nanaimo Timbermen head back into the box, and they’ll have to be ready, because they’re up against the league’s elite. The senior A T-men face the New Westminster Salmonbellies this Saturday (June 27) at Frank Crane Arena. It will be the first game back for the Timbermen after almost two weeks off, and the team has used its practices to simplify the game plan. “Nothing radical,” said Kaleb Toth, Timbermen coach. “It basically comes down to intelligence … We’re not making the intelligent decisions moving the ball up the floor. We’ve just got to slow it down for everybody and hopefully it works.” The Salmonbellies are tied for first place in the Western Lacrosse Association and beat the T-men badly the last time the two teams met. “It’s going to take a lot of hard work. They’re a good young team that works hard, that has some skilled shooters, so we’ve got to try to limit their opportunities,” Toth said. New West’s greatest strength might be its defence, as the ’Bellies have surrendered the fewest goals in the league by far and shut down the T-men last time around. “So we’ve got to definitely get more balls to the net, try to create a little havoc and maybe try to get second and third chances,” Toth said. Now that Nanaimo has had a chance to catch its breath, it believes it can compete with the league’s best. “I think any team can beat anyone on any given night,” the coach said. “The biggest thing is execution. Mistakes happen, but if you can limit them to not being big mistakes, and mistakes that will cost you goals, you have a good chance to win.” GAME ON … The T-men play the Salmonbellies on Saturday at 7 p.m. at Frank Crane Arena. Admission is $12 for adults, $10 for seniors and students and free for kids 12 and under. sports@nanaimobulletin.com

Inbrief sports
Sr. B squad keeping focus The senior B Nanaimo Timbermen amassed 105 shots on goal in their last game, and they’ll keep shooting. The city’s West Coast Senior Lacrosse Association team has two road games this coming weekend. The squad visits the Valley Rebels on Friday (June 26) and then the Royal City Capitals the next day. Nanaimo’s win last weekend lifted the team into a tie for first place, something they’re “well aware” of, said Travis Mickelson, T-men forward. “We’ve got to win out if we want first,” he said. “Even if we drop one, I think we’re going to finish second, so we’ve really got to focus down the stretch here.”
White Rapids host huge meet Nanaimo’s summer swim club will share its pool with hundreds of friendly rivals at the annual Nanaimo White Rapids Invitational Meet. “We have teams from all over Vancouver Island and the Lower Mainland prepping for our meet,” said Gareth Saunders, coach of the White Rapids, in a press release. There will be close to 500 athletes swimming over three days starting Friday (June 26) at Kin Pool at Bowen Park.
Track masters win gold medals Some of the Nanaimo Track and Field Club’s masters athletes are provincial gold medallists. Local participants collected a handful of medals at the B.C. Masters Track and Field Championships this past weekend in Langley. Sandra Bissessur won the 200-metre race and also earned silver in the long jump. Nola Hendrie won long jump, pole vault and discus. Joe Giegerich was another multiple champ, winning the long jump and javelin and placing second in discus. Sven Donaldson took silver in long jump, high jump and pole vault and Tim Hendrie was second in the 400m and third in high jump.

Beefs & bouquets BEEF To my neighbour who killed the beautiful old rose bush that separated our yards for years and then threw the mess on my side to die in shame. Next time don’t use ignorance as a gardening tool. BOUQUET To the homeowner on Icarus Drive for their thoughtfulness in leaving a communal water bowl at the foot of their driveway for passing dogs. My two canine friends thank you. BEEF To those responsible for racist pamphlets and vandalism to bus benches that has occurred recently. Your intolerance is an embarrassment to our city. BOUQUET To the students at Wellington Secondary School. You put on a beautiful tea for Mid-Island Abilities and Independent Living Society. The music provided by the three band students was very nice. BEEF For not having a translucent local government. The Nanaimo taxpayers are fed up with the continuing political lip service. BEEF To the birds that poop on my windows. Don’t they know how hard it is to clean off? BOUQUET To the artists who are spreading positive messages with artistic lighthearted signage throughout Nanaimo expressing love, sharing, giving and ultimately conversation. BEEF To buddy in the brown car behind me on Tenth Street. While you were screaming and honking your horn, I was waiting for oncoming traffic to pass. I was going slowly to obey the speed limit. As you passed on a solid line, I noticed you are a new driver.
BOUQUET To very nice, kind bus driver Gary. He is always ready to help bus passengers with great information. For your kindness and knowledge we are very appreciative. BEEF To the elderly man driving a large grey pickup very fast to buy gas at Superstore. You entered the exit as we were trying to leave in our small car and didn’t have a clue when we followed you. BOUQUET To the Good Samaritan on Rutherford Road who returned my daughter’s bank and employee card to the McDonald’s store and then went back to locate her wallet when staff said it was also missing. BEEF In this period of water restrictions, where is the feasibility in allowing the slip-and-slide attraction to go ahead in August? Who is going to take the heat if our firefighters run out of water during a fire and lose someone’s home? BOUQUET To the young lady volunteer in Bowen Park.

Murano crossover offers more for your money by Keith Morgan
Nissan led the crossover charge with the introduction of the Murano almost 12 years ago, but its imitators soon roared past it on the sales battleground. First drives of each of this thirdgeneration’s trims clearly indicate that this 2015 version is designed to rectify that state of affairs, even though this segment is far more competitive than it was a decade or so ago. Simply put, this car-based crossover vehicle scores on looks, performance, fuel economy and value for money. The bulbous-rear of the first iteration of the Murano is long gone.

The new vehicle is sleek with a low and sloping roofline. A huge V-shaped grille defines the front. Dare we say, sporty? Inside, five passengers will find comfort and room aplenty for human and inanimate cargo. Fold the seats flat to add to the vehicle’s versatility. The external good looks are matched inside, but it’s the usability of the controls that make it a real beauty. The touch screen is almost as intuitive as your smart phone of choice.

as standard fare in the in the Murano. The top-of-the-line AWD Platinum includes a fabulous oversized sunroof, adaptive cruise control and a predictive forward-collision warning and braking system. Nissan is sticking with its trusty 3.5-litre, 260hp, V6 coupled with a continuously variable transmission with a manual shift option. It’s hard to fault the dogged determination to stick with the V6 because it performs well and the continuous tweaking has resulted in improved fuel economy.

after journo complain about the audacity of carmakers who use CVT. In the old days, CVT deserved its poor reputation with power lags, high revving, uneven gearing and unedifying and unexpected lurches forward! The technology has evolved. And, the fact is the average consumer has no problem with it, liking the smoother transitions. My first test route was in the Whistler area and showed off its hill climbing skills and the smoothness of the ‘dreaded’ CVT. It’s no gazelle, but it is sure-footed and the CVT did not fail even when the driver behaved like a lead foot.
I found the ride to be smooth and highway passing no challenge. Cornering at sensible speeds keeps the vehicle firmly planted. It’s darn quiet too. Then I spent a week tooling around the city putting it through its shopping paces. It’s a fine long-distance vehicle but would serve well as a commuter where longer distances are the norm. I can see it being used in the suburbs but it’s a bit large for the centre of the city. The Murano is not too thirsty for its size – 11.2/8.3 L/100 km, better than its main rivals. keith.morgan@drivewaybc.ca
