Smoke expected to lift but advisory lingers J.R. RaRdon Campbell RiveR miRRoR

Prevailing winds are beginning to relieve smoky conditions that hit Campbell River Sunday. The Ministry of Environment and Island Health are leaving a wildfire smoke advisory in place until the current weather conditions improve, however. “We had an overnight marine push that has cleared much of the smoke at ground level,” said Earle Plain, air quality meteorologist with MOE, on Tuesday. “But the smoke remains aloft, so we’ll continue to see the red sun in the mornings and evenings.” Smoke from a series of wildfires in mainland B.C. will likely continue to impact much of Vancouver Island until there is a shift in the highpressure system that has lingered over coastal B.C., or until the fires are put out, Plain added. The ministry and Island Health issued a joint wildfire smoke advisory Sunday afternoon that covers a region stretching from Victoria in the south to Campbell River. The westerly winds that moved in Monday and overnight into Tueday have provided improved conditions at particulate measuring stations in Victoria, Cowichan and Nanaimo, but Plain said elevated readings were still occuring Tuesday in Courtenay and Campbell River. A particulate measuring station on Dogwood Street in Campbell River recorded a spike from 12 micrograms per cubic metre to more than 100 micrograms/m3 between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. Monday afternoon — “That’s very high,” said Plain — and Campbell River’s hourly average

from 9 a.m. Monday to 9 a.m. Tuesday was 52.5. Exposure to particulate pollution from wildfires can be a particular risk to infants, the elderly and those who have underlying medical conditions, including asthma, diabetes and lung or heart disease, Island Health reported. Residents within the advisory area are urged to avoid strenuous outdoor activity, and to contact their health care providers if they experience difficulty in breathing, chest pain or discomfort and the sudden onset of cough or irritation of airways. Residents with asthma or other chronic illness are urged to activate their asthma or personal care plan. The advisory includes Port Alberni, which is impacted by its own forest fire on Dog Mountain, near Sproat Lake. Another Island fire, which caused the evacuation of nearly 200 residents in Port Hardy over the weekend, has been partially contained and residents have been allowed to return under an evacuation alert. No air quality advisory is posted for the Island north of Campbell River. All of the smoke impacting the east side of Vancouver Island is coming from the mainland, and has been funneled into a single, large plume. “There are a lot of different sources of smoke causing issue on the Island and the Sunshine Coast,” said Plain. “It’s coming from the Penticton fire, the Pemberton fire and the Sechelt fire, and it’s shooting across the strait through all these inlets.” Plain said satellite imagery from Sunday showed the smoke pushing through Sechelt and striking the

Qualicum/Parksville area before flowing south. Since then, however, winds have shifted to the west. “With the shift to westerlies, we’re seeing that plume pushed to the north,” Plain said Monday afternoon. “Courtenay is getting slammed right now, and it’s on the way to Campbell River.” Long term, Plain said, the high

pressure system that has lingered over the Island will remain for the foreseeable future, meaning relief from the smoke will be dependent on surface winds — and on the efforts of firefighting crews. The current improvement in conditions at ground level will benefit those with at-risk health conditions, but Plain warned that conditions

can remain variable as long as the fires continue to burn. “The thing about wildfire smoke is that it really changes quickly,” he said. “You can have one good hour, and then it gets bad again.” Real-time air quality information, including readings from the Dogwood monitoring station, is available online at www.bcairquality.ca.

Cape Mudge Lighthouse recognized as heritage site Mike Davies CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

In May 2008, legislation was introduced to “protect and conserve heritage lighthouses,” across Canada. In May 2012, the petition period closed for nominations. Last week, the first 74 heritage lighthouses in Canada were announced, and Quadra’s very own Cape Mudge Lighthouse was on the list, along with 20 others in B.C. Located on the southwestern tip of Quadra Island, the octagonal concrete lighthouse was built in 1916, replacing the original structure

that stood on the site – a square wooden house built in 1898. The heritage designation process wasn’t without its controversy, however. In August of 2011, Chief Ralph Dick of the We Wai Kai First Nation, whose land is home to the lighthouse, asked the Strathcona Regional District (SRD) to “butt out” of their affairs, which is what the band felt was happening by seeking the heritage recognition for the site. The SRD said they were only interested in ensuring the building itself would be preserved. The building is owned and operated

Constructed in 1916, the Lighthouse at Cape Mudge was recently dedicated as one of the first 74 heritage lighthouses in Canada by Parks Canada after an extensive evaluation and designation process.

by the federal government and operated by the Coast Guard, they said, and they wanted to

ensure it was protected from the whims of the federal government. At the time, Jim Abram

Strathcona Regional District’s Quadra Island Director – now Chair – and retired lightstation-keeper for 25 years said, “The Coast Guard is our worst enemy as far as light stations are concerned.” And he still believes that. “This announcement means that the station itself will not only be be preserved, but also remain the same rather than being changed by the Coast Guard on a whim,” he said. “This is a big win for us. We’ve been fighting this battle for 25 years in regards to the preservation of these structures and the rec-

ognition of their importance to the nation,” he said. “There’s no more efficient or effective system in the country than light stations,” he said, noting that station keepers not only keep ships from wrecking on dangerous shorelines, but also provide vital science, weather and other record-keeping services as well as performing life-saving and searchand-rescue roles. Abram sees the conservation announcement as a birthday gift to the nation from the federal government, adding it’s fitting that it also comes just before the Cape

Mudge station’s 100th birthday. “I’m ecstatic that it was one of the first on the list,” Abram said. Abrams said one of the reasons that the Cape Mudge station is in such good shape, even after 100 years, is that it’s the only tower on true coast of B.C. – probably in Canada – that was made with fresh water. A well was dug on the property to make the concrete used in the continuous-pour, Abram said, which compared to concrete made with saltwater, is much stronger. “It’s also an iconic structure for the area,” Abram said.

Conservation officer suspended for refusing to put down bear cubs Kathy O’Reilly-taylOR Black Press

Conservation Officer Bryce Casavant has been suspended without pay pending a performance investigation after he refused to put down two bear cubs this weekend. The baby bears (pictured tranquilized, right), a brother and sister, were orphaned after their mother was put down after she had, at least twice, broken into a freezer of salmon and deer meat inside a mobile home on Hardy Bay Road. Cassavant stressed the sow’s actions were at no fault of the property owner. “Although it is unlikely the mother (and cubs) was in town due to the fire, it is hard to know,” said Casavant. On July 5, Casavant and members of the Port Hardy Fire Department literally pulled out all stops to rescue the babies who had come back to the property and were up a tree calling for their dead mother. “They (firefighters) had their high-angle rescue specialist scale the tree and rappel down on top of the bears to lower them to me. I then tran-

quilized them by hand,” said Casavant. The babies were estimated to be about eight weeks and weigh 20 to 25 pounds, are healthy and still nursing. “We were there for a couple hours,” Casavant said. “It’s immoral to shoot a helpless baby bear, they are nursing still. They are not garbage bears. They are infants,” said Rob Hodder, the owner of the mobile home. “I have an Aboriginal background and deem them to be a sacred animal to our people and I want them to be saved,” Fodder said. After their capture, the babies were transported to the Port Hardy Veterinary Hospital for a health assessment and containment. Casavant then made the decision to transport the bears down Island to the North Island Wildlife

Recovery Association facility in Errington, as per provincial policy regarding bear cubs, despite an order that they be destroyed. “I think it is important for the community to know that I am here to do the right thing,” said Casavant. “There’s a lot of controversy there right now, isn’t there,” said Recovery Association Wildlife

Manager and Founder Robin Campbell, who is now housing the two youngsters. “The Ministry has decided to have us care for them at this point,” said Campbell, until an investigation is done. The controversy occurred after the Ministry of Environment received conflicting reports, one that said the cubs were eating garbage

and another which said that was not the case. Because they were reported to be eating garbage, the cubs were ordered destroyed. If that account is true, said Campbell, the cubs would indeed need to be destroyed “because they would remember and they could become very dangerous for people’s safety.” However, if the alter-

been marked with a bit of paint to identify them. “If there is any negative behaviour we will be able to see it,” Campbell said, adding that the Ministry “was only acting on information that was initially given to them. They go out of their way to bring us bears.” Statements by Bryce Casavant were made to Black Press prior to him being suspended.

native is true based on information “the man on the ground” (Casavant) who would have “the most accurate information” received after interviewing the people involved, the cubs would be candidates for rehabilitation and relocation, Campbell said. The cubs are currently being housed in a room next to some other cubs at the centre and have

fire was just one of 50 new wildfires in B.C. this weekend. Victoria and Vancouver are both experiencing significant smoke and haze from the region’s fires, and Vancouver has issued an air quality advisory. The province is currently under a fire ban that restricts any open fires or campfires. Paula Mackay, Fire Information Officer with the Coastal Fire Centre, said that the main fire on Sunday morning was measured at 16 hectares, and was 20 per cent contained, while the 1 hectare spot fire was 80 per cent contained. The fire

Port Hardy declared a state of emergency on July 4 after a wildfire discovered a day earlier burned through the weekend, causing evacuations of about 100 homes and an influx of helicopters, ground crews and other resources into the area. The fire, believed to be caused by human activity, was discovered early in the evening of July 3 near the Tsulquate River 1.5 km from Port Hardy. Air tankers began to drop retardant on the fire Friday evening, but had to ground when night fell. Heavy winds blew sparks that began a spot fire. Around 8:30 p.m. residents of Upper Carnarvon and Mayors Way began to be evacuated, and an Emergency Operations Centre was set up at the Port Hardy Civic Centre. As the sun went down Friday, smoke filled the town. On Saturday morning the town declared a state of emergency as the main fire grew to eight hectares overnight in addition to the onehectare spot fire. Heavy helicopters applied water to the area while ground crews worked with the challenge of the fire burning in heavy coastal timber. Coastal Fire Centre classified the fire as a high risk ground fire. By Saturday afternoon the main fire was measured at 16 hectares, and the dry, hot and windy conditions proved challenging for the ground crews and helicopters working throughout the day. Mike McCulley, Fire Information Officer with B.C. Wildfire Service, said Saturday that “this is significant fire with aggressive activity,” and warned residents not to become complacent

just because the fire was emitting less smoke than the day before. Between Saturday evening and Sunday morning the fire did not grow, but the persistently hot weather and strong winds had officials preparing for another challenging day. Paula Mackay, Fire Information Officer with the Coastal Fire Centre, said that the main fire on Sunday morning was measured at 16 hectares, and was 20 per cent contained, while the 1 hectare spot fire was 80 per cent contained. The fire as of Sunday morning was considered a rank 1 fire, meaning a smouldering ground or creeping surface fire. Four helicopters continued to work on the fire Sunday in addition to ground crews. Mayor Hank Bood reported Sunday that there were no new evacuations being ordered, but that the situation was being repeatedly assessed. “The key message today is that it is going to be the hottest, driest day of this week,” said Bood. By 1:30 p.m. Sunday, the Coastal Fire Centre reported that the main

fire have grown to 17 hectares, and said that 46 firefighters, 4 helicopters and 7 pieces of heavy equipment were being used to fight it. As of Monday morning the spot fire had been contained and the evacuation order the night before was changed to an evacuation alert, allowing residents to return to their homes. The main fire Monday morning continued to be

20% contained, but was considered a low ground fire burning in the old growth and roots. Mayor Bood said that fire crews were still on the scene and working hard, and stressed that even though the evacuation order had been lifted, everyone needed to be vigilant and aware that the order could be put back in place if the situation worsened.

Fire season hits hard in 2015

Online Voices ● Roger McDonell · Commented on ‘Council taken to task over boat ramps’ - Facebook Interesting that no mention of the boat ramp at the Discovery Harbour Marina was made in this article. It is useable at all tides, has a long float where you can tie your boat and there is lots of parking. It only costs $10 but maybe that is the problem. It would seem that fisherman want a FREE boat ramp because we are the Salmon Capital of the World of course. It seems to me that a free boat ramp is still paid for by all those who pay taxes and most don’t use boat ramps. For the record I pay the $10 and use the Campbell River Indian Band’s very good all weather boat ramp.

Smoke on the water no hit in B.C.

Good news for those who believe camping is just not camping without the experience of some genuine wood smoke: Looks like you’re back in action. Thanks to the wind-borne donation wafting from Pemberton and points throughout mainland B.C., you can enjoy the backwoods of Vancouver Island and get that genuine campfire experience without so much as lighting a match. OK, not so much of a laugh. But for some real misery, you need only look at the longterm projection for this summer’s fire conditions. If the fire season seems earlier and more severe than usual, that’s because it is. Those who have followed the dropping levels of our reservoirs and rivers already know about the lack of snow runoff and spring rains. Continued scarcity of rainfall, combined with high temperatures, have turned the greater portion of B.C. into a tinderbox — and the hot, dry conditions are only expected to persist.

The Cape Mudge Lighthouse foghorn sounded Monday morning but it wasn’t because of fog. The shroud of forest fire smoke blanketing the south coast obscured Quadra Island from sight so badly that it set the foghorn off. The smoke was so thick on the water that Quadra disappeared from view from the Vancouver Island side of Discovery Passage. The prevalence of smoke hanging over Vancouver Island and the Lower Mainland has prompted health warnings from the Ministry of the Environment on Monday that said, “As of Sunday night, and until further notice, a wildfire smoke advisory is in effect for the east and south coasts of Vancouver Island from We say: Smokey Campbell River to Victoskies require our ria. Smoke concentrations, according to the most vulnerable advisory, will vary and to take care possibly lessen before getting worse, because of changes in wind direction and atmospheric pressure “The advisory recommends that people in the affected areas avoid strenuous outdoor activities, and advises those experiencing, ‘difficulty in breathing, chest pain or discomfort, and sudden onset of cough or irritation of airways,’ to contact their healthcare provider immediately. “Exposure is particularly a concern for infants, the elderly and those who have underlying medical conditions such as diabetes and lung or heart disease.” So, be careful out there and be particularly careful with behaviour that creates the risk of forest fire. The Campbell River area has been lucky so far and has escaped a fire in this area. But we are at as high a risk for wildfire as anywhere else in the province. If you are one of the groups at risk of respiratory distress due to the smoke, we hope things are not too uncomfortable and here’s to a strong breeze to blow all this smoke away but spare a thought for our fire fighting crews who are striving to bring these fires under control.

Campfires and carelessly tossed butts are not the only causes of wildfires started by humans. The use of ATVs and other machinery in the woods at a time like this comes with risks every user should weigh and mitigate. When parts of Vancouver Island were slapped with a Level 3 drought rating in mid-June, it was the earliest such occurrence on record. Just a few weeks later, we’re at Level 4, the province’s highest drought rating. Meanwhile, we continue to make the best of the situation. Despite a wildfire smoke advisory issued Sunday afternoon by MOE and Island Health, residents could still be seen Monday frolicking in the sands and waters of Storries Beach, or walking, jogging or cycling along the Seawalk in Willow Point, even as the haze of Pemberton obscured the usual view of the mainland in the distance. In other words, it could be worse. And, if we don’t pay attention to our own actions, it will be.

Campbell River loses long-time resident and war hero

Halifax bomber and West Coast aviator passes away at age 91

Long-time Campbell River resident Ted Turner, 91, a former aviator with the RCAF, Island Air and Air BC, and an active supporter of the Royal Canadian Legion, died at his home at Berwick-by-the-Sea on Friday. The Halifax bomber tail-gunner, who survived a full “tour” of 35 operational missions into occupied Europe during World War II, died suddenly attended by his son Mark and emergency personnel, just months after receiving the new RCAF Bomber Command Bar medal for his wartime service. Turner took great pride in his time in the RCAF and that his entire seven-man aircraft crew had survived the war almost completely unscathed, despite the enormous losses in Bomber Command, particularly among tail-gunners. After coming to Campbell River in 1966 from Ontario, Turner became a pilot with Island Air and Air BC, retiring at 58 in 1982. Turner attended numerous military ceremonies here with the Legion and in April this year laid a wreath and represented the Legion in being one of a small handful of WWII veteran guest of honour at ceremonies in April to mark the 70th anniversary of the Liberation of the Netherlands in 1945. Ten years before, he had attended 60th anniversary celebrations in Holland, where he was feted along with many other Canadian veterans; and in July 2012 ago he was one of the RCAF guests of honour at the unveiling of a Bomber Command memorial in London, England, unveiled by Prince Charles. He recalled that he and Prince Charles shook hands and had a brief chat. Tuner invited Prince Charles to come

Regional district wants 25 per cent reduction in ferry fares Kristen Douglas

Campbell RiveR miRRoR

The Strathcona Regional District wants the province to reduce ferry fares on its minor routes by 25 per cent. The board voted at its meeting June 25 to write a letter to the B.C. government requesting the

rate hike. T h e re qu e st w a s prompted by a study conducted for the Islands Trust Council, a federation of local government bodies representing small coastal communities. The council, in May, hired consulting firm Perrin Thorau and Asso-

ciates to calculate the cost of lowering fares on all minor ferry routes. The consultants used recent BC Ferries operating results and fare information to build its report. “The consultants calculated that an additional $11 to $14 million is needed annually to

reduce fares by 25 per cent from today’s prices, on all minor routes on B.C.’s coast,” wrote Peter Luckham, chair of the Islands Trust Council, in a letter to the Strathcona Regional District. “Our funding calculations give the province credible information to make a sound investment deci-

sion.” Luckham said that having the government pay into the ferry system would strengthen the province’s economy, making it a worthwhile investment. “We have a constructive proposal,” Luckham said. “Affordable fares would attract more cus-

tomers into the ferry system, bolster B.C.’s economy and result in increased provincial tax revenues – a win-win for everyone.” He said that coastal communities, which are struggling under the weight of ferry fares which have increased above the rate of inflation, would also benefit. “For years, we’ve heard clearly from our communities that ferry fare increases have been too steep and are causing hardship for coastal families and businesses,” Luckham said. The Island Trust Council’s proposal to the B.C. government is timed to influence negotiations

on a new BC Ferries’ Coastal Ferry Services Contract, which will run from 2016 to 2020. “Current negotiations for a renewed Coastal Ferry Services Contract are a perfect opportunity for the government to invest in coastal communities,” Luckham said. “We believe a well-advertised drop in fares on the minor routes would help our communities bounce back and give us all time to work on longer-term solutions with the province.” Luckham said it’s time the provincial government took action to alleviate the cost pressures facing coastal communities. “One call, and we’ll do it all”

City to undertake a count of the city’s homeless KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The city will administer a count of the city’s homeless to determine how best to help Campbell River’s most vulnerable. Council, at its Monday meeting, voted to have city staff work with the Campbell River Housing Resource Centre to conduct a detailed absolute homelessness count. Council also agreed to spend up to $2,000 with the money to come from council’s contingency account. The initiative came from Coun. Ron Kerr who told council that if the city intends to lobby the province for home-

lessness funding, the city needs to have all the facts. “We haven’t had a count in Campbell River since probably 2008 or before that,” Kerr said. “It really does give the community something we can use in making decisions and in discussions with the ministry, BC Housing and Island Health. It gives the real, hard facts and I think it’s really important that we do that right away as winter’s coming and it will definitely give everyone a true indication of what’s happening on the streets.” Kerr served notice at the June 22 council meeting, following a presentation from a

group of the city’s homeless, that he would be asking council to support the homeless count. The issue has been front and centre at City Hall since early June when the city’s homeless camped out on the front lawn of the municipal building to get answers as to when a proposed sobering assessment centre will come to fruition and if the annual winter shelter will be back this year. While the sobering assessment centre is still at least a year away because the site slated for the centre isn’t yet available, the winter shelter is largely dependent on the city securing money from the prov-

ince and BC Housing, combined with annual Island Health funding. Coun. Colleen Evans said Kerr’s proposed homeless count will help the city in its efforts to lobby for money. “If we have that information it’s going to allow us to move forward with other funding opportunities,” Evans said. “Definitely the homelessness situation in Campbell River is going to be critical as we move forward. I think the timeliness of this is very important.” Coun. Michele Babchuk said the count will help council determine how it can help the most vulnerable. “If we don’t have the baseline numbers, it’s

field agreed. “I would think that staff would be the ones administering the funding, not necessarily doing the counting. The Campbell River Housing Resource Service would be the ones conducting it and they would need someone to liaise with from the city,” Cornfield said. “I would not want to see our bylaw enforcement people out there doing the counts. There’s also couch surfers who fit into the homelessness definition. There’s other things besides just who lives in the bush, so to me, I think we should be leaving it up to the Housing Resource to do the count.”

and gender of the average homeless person. Coun. Larry Samson wondered how city staff would compile such data. “Our staff is not trained in going out into Nunns Creek Park and the ERT Road and different areas like this and trying to do detailed homeless counts, so how does he see our staff ’s role and what department would take the lead on this?” Samson asked Kerr. Kerr said he would look for advice from staff on how best to conduct the count and suggested staff from the Housing Resource Centre do the actual count. Coun. Charlie Corn-

going to be very difficult to come to some sort of conclusion on what exactly we need in this community,” Babchuk said. “It’s something that I, as a new councillor, that I don’t totally have my head wrapped around, exactly the amount of people that are out there, the demographics of the people, or what resources we already have in the community.” Kerr’s intention is to model the count on a survey done annually by the City of Vancouver which outlines the number of homeless, how many are using the city’s shelters, their incomes, their health, as well as the age, ethnicity,

Ideally, you will have sat down with your Financial Advisor when you bought RRSPs, or simply did tax planning, and the refund will have a specific place in your overall plan. It may be paying off high interest debt, paying down your mortgage, or used to pay for something in advance (instead of getting a loan) such as a vehicle, or home renos. If you don’t have a plan, top up your TFSA and find an trusted Advisor.

Members of the Campbell River Children’s Choir returned home from Ottawa after a whirlwind of rehearsals and Canada Day performances. The young singers gave three performances in the National Arts Centre for over 5,000 enthusiastic audience members. Two of the performances were with the famous National Arts Centre Orchestra under the direction of Maestro Alain Trudel. The singers represented all of British Columbia and they joined forces with choirs from Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario, Nova Sco-

tia and Nunavut to make the celebration truly national. The rehearsals leading up to the Canada Day shows were intense in order to ensure a high quality performance on Canada’s national stage and the choir members rose to the challenge. The demanding rehearsal schedule resulted in standing ovations from the public at the Arts Centre. Their last show finished just in time to walk across confederation square and witness the spectacular fireworks on Parlia-

Handlining in the incredible Dent Island Rapids, early 20th Century. †

Campbell River is blessed with some of the most adventurous waters in the world. The history, the geography and the wildlife combine to create an unforgettable experience. This summer, the Museum at Campbell River is once again offering a series of guided Historic Boat Tours each Sunday during July and August that explore the Discovery Islands and points north. The next trip is planned for July 12, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., travelling to amazing Desolation Sound. This tour will stop for lunch at the famous Lund Hotel, a historic village billed as the gateway to Desolation Sound. Considered to be one of the West Coast’s premier cruising destinations, Desolation

Sound is an iconic location on the coast. Cash purchase incentive Summer Sunday trips include Sonora Island (with lunch at Dent Island Lodge), Yorke Island, Hardwicke on select 2015 modelsand the Thurlows (with lunch at Blind Channel).

Exploring the waterways of the Discovery Islands provides an insight into how wild this region is. The cost for these trips vary from $140 to $160, including lunch and interpretive guide. To reserve a seat call the Museum at 250-287-3103. The Museum is offering Historic Cruises in partnership with Discovery Marine Safaris all through the Discovery Islands this summer.

Eleanor Quinton June 23, 2015

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our mother, grandmother, sister, and most dedicated wife Eleanor Quinton. Eleanor went to be with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on June 23, 2015. As a family we are sorrowful yet rejoicing in her life of 75 years where she was a very dedicated servant of God. She never missed a minute or ceased in her desire to reach others for Christ. Eleanor worked in her early years as a teacher and librarian, in the later years served along side her husband Ron as he entered into Pastoral ministry in Campbell River. Their whole lives they have laboured hard together to love people and to share the good news of Jesus Christ. Eleanor was predeceased by her parents Carl and Pat Rodman, her first son Phillip Quinton, and her brother Jim Rodman. She is survived by her husband Ron Quinton, her sisters Lois Venn, Janet Rodman and sister-in-law Shirl Rodman. Eleanor will be deeply missed by her children Shawn (and Kerry) Quinton and Heather (and Will) Chambers. Her four grandchildren were dearest to her heart, Phillip and Sierra Quinton (Axel/ Brielle), and Samara and Rachel Chambers (Yoda/ Cola) will be missing their grandma for years to come; like her own children she never missed an opportunity to attend a school event or exciting time for her grandchildren to share with her their skills and hobbies. There will be a memorial service to celebrate the life of Eleanor Quinton, July 11, 2015 at 2pm at Discovery Community Church, Campbell River; Pastor Larry Martin officiating. A light meal and fellowship will follow the service. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to “ Campfire Ministries- Camp Bob. 7898 N Island Highway, Black Creek, BC. V9J 1G8.�

In loving memory

Camp Bob is a ministry based camp that reaches kids for Christ and in which Eleanor was very fond of (especially when her son Shawn was assisting in directing the program there for many years). Pray for our family as we continue to heal from this sudden and great loss to our family, our strength will come from the Lord and is well documented in Psalm 46!!! “God is our refuge and our strength.�

AMPBELLTON Neighbourhood AssociAtioN

CAMPBELLTON

Improved access needed along Campbell River By Brian Shaw, Chair, Campbellton Neighbourhood Association

This summer salmon will return again to the Campbell and Quinsam Rivers and with them will come thousands of fishermen who will get to the river banks and wade in. They’re not the only ones either. Add snorkelers, tubers, kayakers, rafters and many others - to the point it will quite often become a free-for-all. Those visitors using the river waters in ever greater numbers will bring a great source of tourism dollars to Campbell River, but what are we doing to accommodate them? The fact is that right now there are no easy ways for people to access or view the Campbell on the east side of the logging bridge and on the south and west sides entrance points are minimal, especially in the Campbellton area.

Fisher people who do access the river do so with great difficulty and parking at busy times is impossible. And you can imagine the kind of refuse that is left along our supposedly pristine river. The City of Campbell River is starting to accommodate the growing number of river visitors by putting in a portable toilet this year, which is a welcome step in the right direction, but more planning is needed to properly develop this amazing resource. Step number one is to develop a working plan and to that end the Campbellton Neighbourhood Association is working with the City to identify changes that will create a better situation for everyone, including preserving the natural attributes for the fish.

Rink Minx get down and derby at the Brindy

C

ampbell River’s Rink Minx hosted its second bout at Strathcona Gardens last Saturday night. Scar Wars featured Stormtroopers, in a nod to the Star Wars franchise-themed evening, and of course the headliners – the Rink Minx.

Campbell River’s newest roller derby team didn’t disappoint in a twin bill that included rivals Pow Town and the Harbour City Rollers. In the first showdown, the Rink Minx defeated Pow Town 177-146 and followed that up with a 188-97 take down of the Harbour City Rollers. A

modest audience turned out for the evening and witnessed Rink Minx jammers rack up the points as they passed multiple opposing players on the track. For more information on Campbell River’s roller derby team visit their Facebook page, Rink Minx Roller Girls.

The myths surrounding reptiles

Emerging from the logs Transformations on the Shore – a summer highlight

Swimmers beat the heat and the competition While it was hot on deck, it was cool in the pool as the Campbell River Salmon Kings held their annual invitational last weekend over a span of some the hottest days of the year at Centennial Pool. The two-day event featured swimmers from across the Island. Each swimmer was allowed to compete in six individual events plus two relays. Jesse Shade swept to victory in seven races to pace the Salmon Kings, winning the 50- and 100metre freestyle races, the 50 and 100 butterfly, the 100 backstroke, the 100 breast stroke and the 200-metre individual medley in the boys ‘O’ division. Yana Jacobs claimed four wins, Julia Alguire netted three golds, and Alandra Back and Kate-Lynn Revoy each snared two golds and a silver for the host Salmon Kings in the two-day event. Sasha Jacobs, Olivia Carter and Avery Moskal added individual event wins, while Jocelyn Diemer had seven top-3 finishes and Maria Villarroel placed second in all four races she completed. Swimmers and their families were treated to a Salmon Dinner in the Park on Saturday evening. The dinner, a marinated barbecued salmon, was sponsored by Marine Harvest. Following dinner, an air band contest was held at the Community Centre, which pitted visiting swim clubs against their host and one another. See top local swimmers results in Scoreboard, page 28.

Backhoe springs gas line in Campbellton MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

“Call before you dig,” obviously isn’t a message that is getting through to some people. Early Monday afterno on, C ampb el lton businesses reported “the smell of gas or propane” to emergency services, bringing members of Campbell River Fire Rescue to the Compound Storage site at the corner of Spruce Street and Marwalk Crescent where a backhoe operator had burst through a Fortis gas line while digging.

“Unfortunately, this isn’t an uncommon occurrence,” said Deputy Fire Chief Chris Vrabel on scene. “It’s really another ‘call before you dig,’ situation. We respond to these fairly regularly to secure the scene while we wait for Fortis to arrive.” At that point, the utility takes over and the Fire Department takes on a “support role,” Vrabel said, whether that is issuing evacuation orders as necessary, redirecting traffic or digging up broken lines. In this instance, both

save on foods 5x10

No evacuation was ordered as no homes or businesses were in immediate danger, Vrabel said. Michael Allison of Fortis BC confirmed that service was suspended to one property while the line was crimped off to stop the leak and said that when a situation like this occurs, the person or company responsible for the damage is also responsible for the cost of the response. “Gas isn’t metered until it gets to a property, so we can’t recover that particular cost, but they are definitely responsible for the cost of the work done to repair the line and the time it takes to do so,” he said, which applies to both people working on commercial properties, independent contractors, “or even residents working on their own property.” Allison said that they have seen a 52 per cent decrease in broken gas

lines between 2007 and 2014, so their messaging is getting through to most people. “BC One Call,” the hotline for gas line location assessment, has received a 17 per cent increase over that time. “We’d like to see that number get to zero,” he said, “and this is really a good reminder for people to call before they dig so they know what utilities are down there. If they don’t call, and they hit something, they’re on the hook.” The number to call for gas line location requests is 1-800-4746886 or *6886 on your cell phone. Visit fortisbc. com/NaturalGas for more information or to request an E-Ticket Location Request online. Fortis would like to remind the public to call or click a minimum of two business days before they intend to dig so they have time to properly assess the site. Thursday, August 13th

City council is trying to retain a recycling depot in the southern part of the city as depots at Strathcona Gardens and the Sportsplex are slated for removal. At its Monday meeting, council directed city staff to meet with staff from the Comox Strathcona Solid Waste service, which oversees the depots, to discuss options for a permanent location in the southern portion of Campbell River. The motion came from Coun. Larry Samson who is concerned that having the two depots removed will mean that residents who live in Willow Point will have to drive to the dump on Argonaut Road or the Island Return It Centre on Willow Street. “When we’re looking at over 700 tonnes of recyclable material going to Strathcona Gardens and the Sportsplex, it shows the importance of having these depots and to now have it on (the Comox Strathcona Solid Waste board’s) agenda that these sites are scheduled to be closed, I think it’s imperative that we take the proactive approach and say ‘no, we need a recycling depot in the southern portion of the city,’” Samson said. “Having one at the Campbell River landfill and on Willow Street is too far and too high of an expectation that we’re all of a sudden going to transfer 700 tonnes to locations north of the city.” According to the Comox Strathcona Solid Waste service, the Strathcona Gardens and Sportsplex recycling depots collect roughly 719 tonnes of material annually and cost approximately $149,000 to operate. A report from Solid Waste staff said the sites are becoming more and more costly to operate because of misuse from the public. Jesse Lee, manager of Comox Strathcona Waste Management operations said with the city anticipating curbside recycling pick up for multi-family complexes, nearly all Campbell River residents should have access to recycling pick-up from their home.

Amber Zirnhelt, the city’s manager of community planning and development services, suggested in a report to council that councillors invite staff from the Comox Strathcona Waste Management service to provide an overview of issues at the two depots and update council on a survey it recently conducted of customers using the bins. Council agreed with Zirnhelt’s suggestion and voted to have a presentation, if possible, prior to the next Comox Strathcona Solid Waste meeting on September 17.
