Tubber defends championship

NATHAN BARLOW chalks up fourth win Sunday.

Protesters planning to block Colliery dam remediation efforts

THE NEWS BULLETIN

The course may have changed, but the champion remained the same. Nathan Barlow won the Great International World Championship Bathtub Race on Sunday in Nanaimo harbour. It was the fourth time Barlow has won the great race, but the first time that he got to ring the bell at the new finish line at Maffeo Sutton Park. “It’s nice to be the first one to do it,” he said. “It’s something new.” Barlow finished the course in his super-modified tub No. 240 in one hour, 15 minutes, 24 seconds, a little over a minute ahead of the second- and third-place finishers. Justin Lofstrom was third to the beach but was second to ring to the bell, just barely edging out Shawn Lamoureux. Lamoureux led until about halfway through the race, when Barlow passed him for good. “I couldn’t keep up with him on the way there, but he couldn’t keep up with me on the way back,” Barlow said. The race course was choppiest from Entrance Island to Maude Island. “Nothing ridiculous,” Barlow said. “Rough enough that you can beat yourself up real good, but not rough

He won the trip to Nanaimo by winning a bathtub race back home. “I’ve had an absolutely amazing time. Everyone’s really looked after me…” Booker said. “It’s an awesome place. You guys have got a really special place out here on the Island.” Dan Faux won the sportsmanship award, Jamie Skipper was the Last Place Finisher and Jamie Westphal took the Silver Plunger award for being the first tub to sink.

Colliery dam protesters are preparing to block the lower Colliery dam remediation project. Dams Direct Action Group president Dave Cutts announced Friday that his group will not stand by and allow trees to be cut, nor a massive trench to be blasted through the park. Cutts, reading a press release from his activist group, said the city has been railroaded by the provincial government into a “costly, destructive and needless project.” His group is prepared to take a stand with measures that include blocking access and camping, and will be inviting activists from other parts of the province to get engaged. Burnaby Mountain, which saw protests last year, is the “perfect example” of the kind of action they will take, Cutts said. “We’re not there just to make a show,” he said. “We’re there to stop the mowing down of those trees. If they don’t take down those trees, they don’t dig a trench.” The protest announcement isn’t unexpected for Nanaimo Mayor Bill McKay, who said the City of Nanaimo will have to take whatever steps necessary to ensure work gets done to comply with the comptroller’s orders. City council unanimously agreed last week to remediate the lower Colliery dam with an auxiliary spillway, estimated to cost between $2.8 million and $4.8 million. The work is estimated by Golder Associates to see 27 trees removed, according to Toby Seward, the city’s acting general manager of community development and protective services, who says the goal is to landscape the area as much as possible after construction is complete. The city expects to be in a position to tender the project by Sept. 1, and must be near complete remediation of the lower dam by midNovember to meet a provincial order.

enough to slow down.” T h e a l t e re d c o u r s e required a little closer attention for the veteran tubbers. “You kind of know in general where you’re aiming for, but you want to make sure,” said Barlow. “[At] Maude Island, Shawn was a little bit in front of me. So you didn’t have to think too much, you just let him do the navigating.” Deisy Garcia was the first female to finish and said she was stoked about the achievement. It was the first time the 14-yearold had entered the great race, and she joked that if

those were calm seas, she wondered what rough seas must be like. “I got hit by a few waves sideways, [but] my boat was great. I didn’t feel that much,” she said. David McHardy of Surrey won the modified division and John Booker of New Zealand was the stock winner. Nanaimo tubber Jaime Garcia provided a boat for Booker, and the New Zealander gave it its first sea trial a day before the great race. “Conditions were really nice for racing,” Booker said. “It was really smooth, it was a really sweet run.”

Volunteers will clear out garden beds, paint buildings, fences and concrete walls, and reach out to businesses about filling vacant spaces. “Even with the little bits of painting we did last weekend, we’re finding that it’s actually making people believe they can make a change. It’s giving people some hope,” said Robertson, who believes the challenges of the area can feel overwhelming. “Sometimes we only think in terms of big, expensive development when there’s a lot we can do right on the street level.” The five-member group will be looking to get one lane each way closed to allow for parking.

Chris Sholberg, city culture and heritage planner, said My Street is an interesting idea used in other parts of North America, like Dallas, Texas. “It’s all about envisioning what a space can be, even just for a day, and hoping that may lead to longer-term ideas of investment and change,” he said.

Nanaimo’s Nicol Street is about to go from highway to high street. Block Builders Nanaimo, a grassroots group of south-end residents, wants to give the public a peek into the potential of Nicol Street with a oneday event this September. The roadway, from Esplanade to Petroglyph Park, is a gateway into Nanaimo and a four-lane highway built to move large amounts of traffic efficiently, according to the south-end neighbourhood plan. There’s no on-street parking or pedestrian crossings between Milton Street and Esplanade and storefronts have seen better days. City planners and residents want to see it become something better – a retail street that’s pedestrian friendly and has high-density housing; an area where people can get produce and perogies and sit down for coffee. On Sept. 20 Block Builders Nanaimo hopes to nudge along the dream with My Street, an event to transform the highway into a thriving high street of pop-up stores, vendors, food trucks and music. Sydney Robertson, a block builder, said it’s the work behind the scenes she finds

Get r we're expanding

Vancouver Island University is expected to use $1 million from the federal government to enhance hands-on training for trades students. The university will use the Western Diversification Program money to purchase equipment for a mobile forestry skills training program. It is expected to benefit students associated with the forest industry, including hand fallers, logging truck drivers and forestry technicians. “What it will be is a truck and a trailer and it will house a number of simulators from load building equipment-type simulators to forestry simulators, so the truck could have anywhere from six to eight simulators in it. The simulators are quite real-life, they actually move,” said Glynis Steen, interim dean of trades and applied technology. The university is currently researching and shopping around and it is anticipated the truck, trailer and simulators will be on site by late December.

study shows new water potential for Lantzville A $350,000 upgrade of Lantzville’s wellfield could allow it to t a p i n t o m o re water, a new report shows. A wellfield management plan study, released last week, shows the District of Lantzville could get an additional 400 cubic metres a day from its system, but whether that translates into new connections for residents hinges on politicians agreeing to improvements and tests to prove that upgrades increase supply. Lantzville has 885 households on its well system, with 3,600 residents in the community. By 2065, that population is expected to grow to 5,700. A deal with Nanaimo could see 225 households connect to city supply, and 50 hookups for new development, but there hasn’t been consensus on how to move forward. The report offers a series of recommendations for Lantzville’s water supply, including the replacement of one well and the redevelopment of three others to boost production. Fred Spears, the district’s director of public works, said the recommendation to council is to do the upgrades, monitor to ensure the district is getting what it was told it would and then look at expanding the amount of connections. “[The study] indicates there’s potential to expand the system, but there’s a lot of steps that have to be taken,” he said. Mayor Colin Haime said the first step is to clarify the extent of the water supply because the volume and timing of other water sources depends on what the municipality is able to produce.

Realty company sold

Royal lEpagE buys competing real estate firm Coast Realty. By Chris Bush The News BulleTiN

Expect to see Coast Realty Group’s signs come down from real estate offices. Royal LePage Real Estate Services announced Tuesday it acquired Coast Realty Group brokerage and property management business on Vancouver Island. Coast Realty will begin operating under the Royal LePage banner, effective immediately. In Nanaimo the company will operate under Royal LePage Nanaimo Realty. Barry Clark, broker owner of Royal LePage Nanaimo Realty with Travis Carmichael, will merge the brokerage with Coast Realty Group offices in Nanaimo, Ladysmith and Gabriola Island. Clark said it’s a positive move and will double the number of

realtors to 80 from 40 under Royal LePage Nanaimo Realty. The merger also triples the company’s regional market share. “Nanaimo Realty’s been in business 68 years and Royal LePage has been in business 100 years,” Clark said. “It’s a good Canadian company and it’s very aggressive. The franchise is the fastest-growing franchise in Canada. We’re proud to be a part of it and moving forward.” Phil Soper, Royal LePage president and CEO, said in a press release the company has made growth in British Columbia a strategic priority over the past year, adding 600 realtors through B.C. acquisitions. The Coast Realty deal adds 150 realtors on the Island and in Powell River. Royal LePage was formed in 1913 and has 600 offices and more than 16,000 real estate professionals across Canada. Coast Realty Group was established in 1984 and operated from nine offices on the Island and one in Powell River. photos@nanaimobulletin.com

Regional district considers extension for consultant on pollution control By KArL yu The News BulleTiN

The Regional District of Nanaimo is deciding whether to approve a $100,000 contract extension with BRC Consulting for consultation work on the Greater Nanaimo Pollution Control Centre project. As part of the regional district’s Liquid Waste Management Plan, the centre must be upgraded to improve solids removal from wastewater by the end of 2018. The project will include improvements to odour mitigation systems and to primary treatment. If approved at the regular meeting tonight (July 28), the extension will run until May. BRC Consulting was selected as a subject matter expert last September and according to Sean De Pol, regional district manager of wastewater services, the firm is overseeing preliminary design work from project engineer AECOM and coming up with solutions to design issues that could

potentially affect construction and operation of the facility. The project is complex and if there isn’t an appropriate level of pre-planning, the scope could increase after the project goes to tender, which could affect costs, he said. “There are thousands of different elements to a project like this and you only get one opportunity to do it and if we can pre-plan and anticipate every single, possible aspect of the project, when it comes to construction, that’s where you’re going to be guaranteed success. So that’s what were going through right now with BRC Consulting,” said De Pol. De Pol is projecting a construction tender going out in May, lasting for upwards of six weeks, with the successful proponent expected to be named next July and construction following after. The regional district anticipates it will have spent $145,000 on BRC Consulting. reporter@nanaimobulletin.com

EDITORIAL

Bathtub race getting better

The Great International World Championship Bathtub Race is worthy of all those superlatives. This year’s great race was one of the best yet, and it’s all thanks to a simple change in direction. Starting and ending the race in the same place – the city’s premier downtown waterfront park – was a sensible move that has reinvigorated the Nanaimo Marine Festival. The bathtub race belongs downtown. Departure Bay Beach had its appeal as a finish line, as it has plenty of sandy shoreline for spectators to catch the action. Maffeo Sutton Park had to pack people in, but it’s still a superior venue, for a few reasons. The park is better suited for a festival feel, with the Lions Pavilion stage for music and capacity for food trucks, vendors and the like. It takes a little over an hour for the fastest tubbers to make it around the buoys and back. There was lots to see and do at the park during that hour, but it was also just enough time for the crowd to stroll around the downtown, check out the car show and sidewalk sales, have a coffee and a Nanaimo bar, and then return for the finish-line fun. Downtown isn’t always a happening place on a Sunday morning, but this past weekend, it was, and it continued the momentum of festival season. The merchants deserve those sort of days, and it’s a reminder that as a community we can always do more to organize, support and enjoy these kinds of events. The great race can be better still, in time for next year’s 50th-anniversary bash. There should be space for spectators to line the shore on both sides of the finish line, if possible. Organizers expect even more tubs, and the longrange forecast is calling for a sunny day. We’ve hosted the bathtub world championship for a lot of years, and it’s closer, now, to becoming world-class.

mate change – all getting worse as populations grow, energy needs increase and fossil fuel reserves become increasingly scarce and difficult to exploit – have become unsustainable. Yet, many of our leaders are still pinning their hopes on rapid oil sands expansion, massive increases in fracking for liquefied natural gas and new and expanded pipelines across the country – with benefits flowing more to industry than citizens. It’s refreshing to see provincial premiers at least recognizing the threat of climate change and the need to address it through conservation, efficiency and clean technology, but we need a far greater shift to keep the problems we’ve created from getting worse. There are many benefits to doing so, including more and better jobs, a stronger economy, healthier citizens and reduced health-care costs, and greater preservation of our rich natural heritage. Canada’s premiers should take these issues seriously and commit to a faster shift from fossil fuels as they continue to develop their energy strategy. They must also stress the importance of having similar, stronger action from the federal government – and so should we all.

‘It’s actually making people believe they can make a change. It’s giving people some hope.’

Consumers support fair wages To the Editor,

Re: Poverty coalition pegs Nanaimo’s living wage at $18 an hour, July 14. The article and the movement are well due. I take exception to the Greater Nanaimo Chamber of Commerce CEO’s talking point that the issue needs more discussion. Businesses and governments have for too long

wrongly decided what a person’s hourly wage is worth. Raising the minimum wage benefits businesses, workers and the economy. It is ridiculous to insult the consumer in thinking that we would not support a store that pays a decent wage. I pay 85 dollars an hour to have my automobile fixed, you don’t think I’d pay an extra half

buck for my pizza? Store owners need to decide whether their economic model works in the community with the price of fair wages factored in. If not, asking workers to work at a loss, and subsidize your enterprise, might just be asking too much.

City shouldn’t cull a national symbol To the Editor,

Re: City seeks regional strategy for geese, July 21. I have lived in Nanaimo since 1965 and have always admired the Canada goose. These birds honk at night and give me joy to hear them. I think that egg addling is a very good idea and when at Westwood Lake I do not see many offspring anymore and

that is good. However, this bird is a symbol of Canada’s greatness and must not be culled. Please do not kill them; you would be killing part of Canada’s joy and admiration. I am happy for what has already happened like taking them to Cottle Lake from Westwood. Let these good works be appreciated. Gloria Peachey Nanaimo

Humans, not God, are to blame for fires To the Editor,

Re: Wildfires predicted in scripture, Letters, July 21. The fires in our province, as well as our neighbouring provinces, have a legitimate explanation that requires no supernatural induction. It is evident that this is the work of climate change, which has been guided by the hands of mankind, not those of the gods. Science has proposed this idea for many years and although the vague prediction made by the Prophet Daniel predates the scientific one, scientists have been capable of determining the effects far more accurately. I welcome anyone who disagrees with me to take a moment and reflect on the instances where biblical prophecy

has fallen short, such as the Nile river drying up. I urge those who carry a sense of fear or doom to turn away from the sky and instead open their eyes to what we can do to improve our current conditions. I hope you won’t discredit B.C.’s natural beauty and the tragedy that has fallen with the proclamation of a dystopic end-times, because once we do that, we have given up the fight to protect our planet.

Mayor shouldn’t be allowed to speak on behalf of city To the Editor,

Re: Developer cites lack of support for killing hotel deal, July 14. I call on Mayor Bill McKay to resign. He has committed municipal treason on the taxpayers of Nanaimo. By urging the now-pulled-out hotel developer SSS Manhao to “recover those costs before I gave that property

up” (sue the city), it clearly shows whose side the mayor is on – and it’s not ours. What government official would tell the other side to sue the taxpayers? No one. Until McKay’s letter of resignation is received by the electorate, council should vote to muzzle him from speaking on behalf of the city. Even after a council

God continues to break the pride of men, as at present God rules the weather curses mankind brought upon themselves as a result of disobedience to the laws of God. So now earthquakes, drought, floods, tornadoes and such damage by fires causing millions of dollars. According to prophecy, prior to the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, God will extend a time of wrath as never before experienced. We sealed into the body of Christ by the Holy Spirit will be lifted out of it. Peace on Earth is coming, with certainty.

PUB TOURS start at the Bastion.

he year was 1898 and Nanaimo’s Commercial Street was home to six bars. By the 1900s the were nearly two dozen drinking establishments within the Harbour City. “There were 22 bars in Nanaimo in 1900,” said local historian and tour guide Kevin Storey. “There were at least seven breweries.” Details about Nanaimo’s bar scene in its early years are just some of the countless historical facts that people can learn about while participating in the Historic Pub Tour. Organized and led by Storey and Mark Corbett, the tour lasts for almost two hours and touches on everything from the history of British Columbia’s drinking laws to Nanaimo’s topography. “We walk the streets in a meandering fashion talking about the history and the changes in the topography and then we cover a lot of the liquor laws and policies of British Columbia from 1853,” Storey said.

The tour begins at the Bastion and stops at the Palace Hotel and the Cambie. It also includes a stop at Mambo’s Pizza. “They [The Palace and the Cambie] are the oldest and the edgiest,” Storey said. The Historic Pub Tour is part of the Nanaimo Walking Tours, a tour company run by Corbett and Storey that hosts other types of tours throughout the city. Corbett says the

historic pub tour is great for tourists and people who have lived in Nanaimo for years. “There is an educational element, with the history and the dates and things, but it is also fun,” Corbett says. “You get to go visit a pub and hang out with the locals and you get beer and you get pizza. It is kind of an experience.” Those who grew up in Nanaimo will appreciate the tour for its wealth

get you looking at downtown in a way that you wouldn’t normally do if you just parked and went to your favourite shop.” British Columbia’s liquor laws have come a long way since the province joined confederation in 1871. Storey, who has been tour guide with the Nanaimo Museum for years, says that prior to confederation, the region was dominated by cartels. “At that point

Theatre releases schedule The Port Theatre has released its Spotlight Series performance schedule for the upcoming 201516 season. The lineup features performances by the Canadian Brass, the Guy Mendilow Ensemble, Lorne Elliott, Ballet B.C., Delhi 2 Dublin, the Bollywood Masala Orchestra and Dancers of India, Ballets Jazz de Montréal and De Danann. International Guitar Night, Winter Harp and Sarah Hagen’s

Classical Coffee Series will all be returning to the Port Theatre. On April 4 and April 5 the Royal Winnipeg Ballet will be performing Going Home Star: Truth and Reconciliation. Directed by André Lewis and sponsored by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, the production is about a young First Nation woman whose life is changed when she ends up meeting a homeless man.

there was a beer cartel,” Storey said. “With the establishment of the government they worked hard for years to break the cartel so that they could dominate the alcohol.” Those who go on the tour will learn about the province’s strange liquor laws. “In the 1890s in British Columbia it was illegal to be drunk in your home,” Storey said. “Before 1986 you couldn’t buy beer in British Columbia on

a Sunday.” According to Storey, during prohibition, which lasted from 1917 to 1920, veterinarians and doctors could prescribe alcohol to animals. “People will take away a little bit of some of the quirks of the liquor laws,” Storey said. “For instance prescriptions for horses for alcohol. You know full well that is going to the farmer and not the horse.” In the last few years, the province made a number of changes to the liquor laws. As of April, residents in British Columbia are able to purchase wine at select grocery stores. Storey says the government’s position on how people consume liquor has changed. “The government used to promote going out to drink. So there were many bars and it wasn’t stigmatized because of drinking and driving,” Storey said. “Now that stigma is in place the government seems to be reversing it and making more athome drinking available.” Tours are scheduled for Aug. 6, Aug. 27 and Sept. 17 and are $25 per person. Beer and pizza is extra. For more information, visit www.nanaimowalkingtours.ca. arts@nanaimobulletin.com

Musicians taking over park Three talented musicians will take over Maffeo Sutton Park next month for an annual fundraising event. Symphony by the Sea will take place on Aug. 8 at 6 p.m. at the downtown park. This year’s event will feature tenor Ken Lavigne, child piano player Kevin Chan, director Calvin Dyck as well as an 1812 Overture with Paper Bag Cannons. The free event is a fundraiser for the Vancouver Island Symphony. For more information, please visit www.vancouverislandsymphony.com or call 250-754-0177.

Dutfield, Leon, Edward

May 15, 1938 ~ July 23, 2015 â&#x20AC;&#x153;Age, Bad Luck and a Western Dietâ&#x20AC;?, the big â&#x20AC;&#x153;Câ&#x20AC;? finally got its hold and wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let go. After 22 months in this battle, Leon passed away peacefully in the Palliative Care Unit of the Nanaimo Regional General Hospital with his family by his side. He was born to William Thomas Dutfield and Irene Christie Aldridge in New Toronto, Ontario. Raised in the small village of Port Credit, he developed a love of the outdoors and the nearby farms that he found so intriguing. Leon began his teaching career in a one-room school-house, SS#9 (Bloomsbury) in Nassagaweya Township in Halton County in 1959 and eventually retired from West Hill Secondary School in Owen Sound, Ontario in 1993. He and his wife of 54 years, Joan, shared the love for their three daughters, Karen Newark (predeceased by son-in-law Michael), Kim Dutfield (Shelley Strong) and Brenda Freeman (Jeff), his eight grandchildren: Kathryn, Hillary, Graeme, Hannah, Max, Kurt, Lars, and Kindred were a source of pride to him. Hopefully as the years pass, some of his life lessons will be incorporated into their lives. He is also survived by a brother Tom (Pam), and numerous cousins, nephews and friends. May God bless them all! A special thanks goes out to the wonderful nurses and doctors, care aids and the volunteers from Hospice House in the Palliative Unit for their exemplary care they lovingly provided. A Celebration of Leonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life will be held Tuesday August 4, 2015 from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm at Sands Funeral Chapel, 1 Newcastle Avenue, Nanaimo, BC. Donations to Colorectal Cancer Research would be appreciated. Sands ~ Nanaimo (250)753-2032

He is predeceased by his loving wife, Julie in 2005, and siblings Iva and Ivan, also his granddaughter Amanda in 2003. Dad is survived by his daughters Susan (Randy), Sheryl (Rod), Sandy, Shannon (John); grandchildren Paul (Cherie), Rick, Alisha, Jennalee (Chris), Matthew, Jason, Sarah, Nikki and Kacie; great grandchildren Jordynn and Ember, and also his eldest brother Ervin (Jean). Dadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career as a Boilermaker and his sense of adventure took him and his family to many new places, making a home wherever the road took him. He loved the outdoors, camping, fishing and gold panning. In Melâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s retirement years he enjoyed playing cards and a good game of chess, he spent many hours driving friends wherever they needed to go, helping in anyway he could. Mel will be greatly missed by his family and friends. No service by request.

The Rams turned the ball over five times in the second half and Nanaimo outscored Langley 13-0 over those final two quarters to come back and win. “We wanted to bring that first ‘W’ of the season, especially in front of the home fans,” said Nate Berg, V.I. running back. “Fourth quarter it was go time, all or nothing.” A turning point came early in the fourth quarter. V.I. linebacker Dexter Shea recovered a fumble and returned it deep into Rams territory, setting up a four-yard touchdown run from V.I. quarterback Liam O’Brien to give the Raiders a five-point lead. Nanaimo’s defence stood tall down the stretch, as Langley wasn’t able to cross midfield over its last few drives. “The game will always come down to the fourth quarter,” said Josh Paisley, V.I. defensive back. “Who can keep that drive going all the way through the game?” Jerome Erdman was able to win his debut as Raiders head coach. He said all aspects of his team’s game were strong, and had to be against the Rams. “We wanted to just be patient and make them work for it. We felt if we didn’t start … being too aggressive, that they would make a mistake and better them

than us,” Erdman said. “[We] really stuck to the game plan and we never made the big, critical mistake and I think we wore them down.” V.I.’s Dustin Rodriguez opened the scoring with a 23-yard touchdown catch 10 minutes into the game, but in the second quarter, the Rams replied with touchdown catches from Jordan Traversy and Nathan Lund. V.I.’s Matias Bueno was good on both his field-goal attempts. O’Brien finished the game 18-for-32 passing for 208 yards with one passing TD and one rushing TD. He was sacked seven times. Berg had 90 rushing yards and Rodriguez had six catches and

The Raiders celebrated boisterously after the win, and Erdman said he’s proud of the guys. “When you work them hard and they see a result like this, they really start to believe…” the coach said. “We beat a very good football team and I don’t know if many people thought we would, but [our players] did.” GAME ON … The Raiders visit the Westshore Rebels in Victoria on Saturday (Aug. 1). sports@nanaimobulletin.com

The senior B Nanaimo Timbermen are back in the finals and as close to a championship as they’ve been in a long time. The T-men face their rivals, the Ladner Pioneers, in the West Coast Senior Lacrosse Association finals starting Wednesday (July 29) at Frank Crane Arena. The teams will play a best-of-five series. Nanaimo was swept by the Tri-City Bandits in last year’s league final, but is more of a favourite against the Pioneers. “We definitely feel a lot different and a lot more confident,” said Mike Maughan, T-men coach. “Last year [in the finals] we just weren’t able to pull it out when it was a tight game. Now I think our team is different and we definitely have a bit more depth scoring up front which is going to help us when it comes to tight games.” GAME ON … The T-men and Pioneers face off Wednesday at 7:15 p.m. Tickets will be available at the door. The series then breaks until Aug. 6 on the mainland, and Game 3 is Aug. 8 at 2 p.m. at Frank Crane Arena. If necessary, Game 4 would be Aug. 9, and Game 5 would take place Aug. 12.
