Coast Guard won’t remove Viki Lyne II Is looking at measures to reduce environmental risk Craig Spence the chronicle

It’s unlikely the Viki Lyne II will be removed from Ladysmith Harbour by the Coast Guard a spokesperson for Fisheries and Oceans Canada’s Pacific Region has told the Chronicle. Communications Officer Dan Bate, responding to questions from the Chronicle, said in an Aug. 11 email that the Canadian Coast Guard will take “reasonable measures to minimize the risk of a pollution incident occurring and will continue to monitor the vessel and area for any changes in condition or risk.” But he adds, “It is important to Ladysmith Orca Swim Club competitors Aileen Humphreys and Faith Knelsen, with Coach Dusan Toth Szabo, note that those measures are uncame back from the Canadian Age Group Championship Swim Meet July 29 to Aug. 3 in Quebec City with likely to include removal of the ship success stories to tell.

litres of fuel that were removed from the vessel last fall. “Some remaining pollutants may be considered a safety risk, so specialists in pollutant removal – other than regular fuel oil – are being solicited using PWGSC (Public Works and Government Services Canada) contracting support,” his email states. “This work will further reduce the environmental risk presented by the vessel.” Bate also countered information that the Canadian Coast Guard had moved the Viki Lyne II into Ladysmith Harbour. He said the Viki Lyne II was moved from Dunsmuir Island in 2012 by its owner working “with a local contractor” because it was dragging anchor and at risk of grounding. “Arrangements were made by the owner to secure it at Ladysmith Harbour,” Bate said. “There was no contract or direction from the Coast Guard to move or relocate the vessel to Ladysmith Harbour.” He said the Coast Guard will monitor the ship and be prepared to take measures if necessary. “Should the situation escalate, CCG ER personnel are ready to respond with vessels, equipment, and contractors to mitigate any potential impact on the marine environment,” Bate said. As for use and activity on the vessel while it is moored in Ladysmith Harbour, Bate said that’s not within the Coast Guard’s responsibility. “CCG’s mandate with respect of Viki Lyne II surrounds any potential to pollute local waters,” he said. “Other issues, such as use, fall outside the purview of the department.”

Internship for business grad Island Economic Trust offers internship. The Vancouver Island Economic Trust is offering a paid internship to a recent university grad. “We are offering a valuable, hands-on experience working in economic development,” said ICET CEO Line Robert. “It’s an 8-month term, starting in September, it’s open to recent University grads with a degree in business, economics, political science, public administration, or other related discipline.” The intern will “have the opportunity to learn from communities, First Nations and non-profits and see first-hand, the impact of economic development initiatives in our region.” Information on the internship available at www.islandcoastaltrust.ca.

Deadline extended for climate leadership plan comments Environment Minister Mary Polak has announced an extension to the time available for individuals and organizations wanting to comment on a climate leadership discussion paper released by the government last month as part of its consultation process. The province had set the deadline for submissions on its 30 day public consultation as Aug. 17, but decided to extend it to Sept. 14 due to the level of public interest. The deadline for completing a survey, which is also part of the consultation process, remains Aug. 17. A draft Climate Leadership Plan, which will incorporate input from the public consultation, will be released in December, says the Ministry of Environment information release. Then there will be a ‘second opportunity to provide input’ before a final plan is released in March 2016. You can view the discussion paper at engage.gov. bc.ca/climateleadership

Car enthusiasts converged on Ladysmith Aug.14 - 15 for the annual Rod Run to Chemainus and back, then for the 12th Annual Show & Shine, which drew crowds to admire the chrome, paint and interior appointments of some of the region’s best loved vehicles. Above and right, drivers in convoy went round the traffic circles in Chemainus; far right above, appreciative spectators wondered what it might be like to have a bit of muscle under the hood.

The band played on when the Titanic sank; but in Ladysmith’s case, the celebration parade continued, even though a band never showed up.

Legion funds D.A.R.E. program Ladysmith’s Royal Canadian Legion has donated $250 to support the RCMP’s new D.A.R.E. keepin’ it REAL (KiR) Program, which will be delivered to 100 local Grade 5 students this year. Staff Sergeant Anthony Choy, the RCMP provincial coordinator of the Drug and Organized Crime Awareness Service (DOCAS), which oversees the Ladysmith D.A.R.E. program, said that over 100 police officers teach D.A.R.E. to thousands of school children throughout British Columbia. “The new D.A.R.E. KiR Program encourages youth to be exemplary citizens and to help others in need. The Program also covers topics such as peer pressure, stress, communications, bullying, and the Decision Making Model,” Choy said. DOCAS works closely with D.A.R.E. BC Society, a registered charitable organization which raises funds within each community to cover the cost of the student learning materials. D.A.R.E. BC Society President Colin Grant emphasized that, “Community donations ensure our children will be equipped with the critical thinking and life skills necessary to choose a drug-free life and fund the $12 cost of “Nanaimo’s premier furniture destination” Island owned & operated family business since 1967

learning materials per student”. He thanked the Royal Canadian Legion for its support, “We are very grateful for their generous donations which cover the cost of learning materials for 20 students who took the program during the 2014-2015 school year”. D.A.R.E. BC Society Partner Relations Manager, Chantal Broughton, said next year’s D.A.R.E. program starts this September and we will need to raise $1,200 in Ladysmith to cover the cost of learning materials for 100 students who are expected to take the D.A.R.E. KiR program. “We are appealing to the citizens of Ladysmith to make a donation to help the Ladysmith RCMP empower our school children to choose a drug-free life,” Broughton said. To make a donation contact Partner Relations Manager, Chantal Broughton by phone at 778-290-2029 or email at dare@darebc.com. To learn more about the D.A.R.E. KiR Program visit darebc.com.

“Where were you all of that time? I hope your answer is, I too was busy actively volunteering...”

Issue 2 - The Economy What should public policy be when it comes to intervening in the economy? Should we assume that the needs of Canadians for good jobs, a high standard of living, and a sustainable future will be best met by keeping taxes low, regulations to a minimum, and letting businesses flourish and profit? Or should government use taxes, regulations and incentives to create programs and services that build a stronger, more equitable and sustainable economy? In an intensely competitive world, with emerging economies taking full advantage of their strengths, do we even have a choice? *** This week the Chronicle focuses on The Economy in its ongoing coverage of the Oct. 19 Federal Election. One of the most important, but most difficult issues of virtually any election, we presented candidates the Issue Summary above. See their responses Page 11.

Where were you? Ladysmith Days organizers ask letter writer letters Editor: (RE: Wrong Greasy Pole lesson learned, Chronicle, Aug. 11, p 6) The reality of public service at the municipal level is slings and arrows. However, in this case said writer has publicly impugned the integrity and thus diminished all of the hard work that Celebrations Committee volunteers (all 6 in total by the way, inclusive of the Chair) have done to plan and deliver another successful and free Ladysmith Days event for all residents of Ladysmith, especially children and their families. The Ladysmith-Chemainus Chronicle is a member of the British Columbia Press Council, a self-regulatory body governing the province’s newspaper industry. The council considers complaints from the public about the conduct of member newspapers. Directors oversee the mediation of complaints, with input from both the newspaper and the complaint holder. If talking with the editor or publisher does not resolve your complaint about coverage or story treatment, you may contact the B.C. Press Council. Your written concern, with documentation, should be sent to B.C. Press Council, PO Box 1356, Ladysmith, B.C. V9G 1A9. For information phone 1-888-6872213 or go to www.bcpresscouncil.org.

So I ask the writer: • Where were you when Celebration volunteers met in October 2014 to review and debrief the previous successful August 2014 Ladysmith Days? • Where were you when volunteers were meeting monthly in November through June to plan the theme and events for Ladysmith Days 2015. Volunteers were giving up precious family and leisure time to solicit prizes and cash donations to pay for all of the things that make up this ‘free’ community event. • Where were you starting in late June to July 3, when the Celebrations Committee met weekly to refine the last details of Ladysmith Days 2015. They were also running around, picking up prizes, donations and other materials, designing and constructing structures for the Greasy Pole contest, the Zucchini Race and the Ladies Nail Driving event. • Where were you on the Friday morning before Ladysmith Days, when the Greasy Pole was

physically being moved and set up, and later that night when Ladysmith Days stages were being set up at Transfer Beach. • Where were you at 8 a.m. Saturday, when tents were being set up along with chairs, tables and no dog signs. • Where were you on the holiday Monday when all of that work had to be undone, dismantled and the materials restored for next year’s Ladysmith Days. Where were you all of that time? I hope your answer is, I too was busy actively volunteering to make my community a better place for neighbours, friends and everyone else who calls Ladysmith home. Finally, after being elected in three successive elections I have made it no secret that I will have served 10 years as a council member and like the previous 10 years when I sat as a director of the Mid Isle soccer Club it will be time for other members of the community to step up. I invite you to put your name

If he does, he might want to let the owner know that someone else is taking up residence on the vessel and is inviting others aboard. Can he tell us when was the last time the owner set foot on the vessel? Does he know what the intentions of the owner are? Is there any reason we should not regard this vessel as abandoned and derelict? Ken Hiebert Ladysmith

Island Savings credit union was presented a Certificate of Appreciation Aug. 8 at the Chemainus Theatre, before the curtain call for a final week showing of Roald Dahl’s James and the Magic Peach – the last performance was held Aug. 15. They were being honoured for their support of Discovery Theatre – a series of free workshops, including materials, supplies and instruction, designed for elementary and secondary students. More than 40 Island schools have brought the workshops into their classrooms since the program was launched in 2011, with Island Savings behind it from the very beginning. “The workshops help young people build self-esteem through performance, expand their interpersonal skills and explore their creativity and artistic expres-

I didn’t have to change my views when I joined the Green Party. I read the policy document, Vision Green, after Elizabeth May asked me to run, and was pleasantly surprised at what I learned. I knew the Green Party would be strong on environmental policy, but it is also has excellent policies on social justice, health, inequality and a range of other issues. The Green Party has a balanced approach to the economy, fair taxation and fiscal reform. They also focus on good governance and democratic reform. It is Green Party policy that MPs cannot be whipped to vote against their conscience or the wishes of their constituents. The Green Party is the only party opposed to any expansion of pipelines for the export of raw bitumen from the Alberta tar sands. It supports a national moratorium on hydraulic gas fracking. And it is the only party opposed to any international trade and investment agreements that include Investor State Dispute Settlements. For those of you who are worried about splitting the vote, it is voter cynicism and abandonment that should be our focus. I want people to be positive about politics, and vote for a candidate and party that they can trust to represent them with honesty and integrity. I have spent years raising concerns about what we need to do to for the Canada we want. We owe it to future generations to be hopeful and work for a better world.

If you build it, they will come. No matter how many times that’s been proven during the 17 year history of Ladysmith’s Arts on the Avenue, Kathy Holmes and the organizing committee still get butterflies as the big day approaches. This Aug. 23 there will be 56 juried artists in the show, including: potters, fine artists, jewelry makers, metal craftsmen, woodworkers, glass blowers, fabric artists and photographers. They will be demonstrating their creations, and their techniques before an estimated 6,000 art aficionados in about 30 tents between Buller and Warren streets from 10 a.m to 4 p.m. “We cover all the mediums, we try to get a good mix,” Holmes said, adding

that Ladysmith will live up to its reputation as a place where great art happens. “We do have wonderful artists here,” she said. “It’s a mecca for the arts.” That’s true of Vancouver Island in general, she added. “I think Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands have a high quality and high proportion of artists.” The featured artist at this year’s AOA will be carver Jack Fisher. “His work is in homes all over the world,” Holmes said, adding he’s been a big supporter of Arts on the Avenue since its inception. There will be lots of opportunities for kids to participate, making Arts on the Avenue a family event. Cheeky Monkey Daycare will be running a Kids’ Art Area, where there they can “come in and paint and create all day long.”

As well potter Mary Fox will be showing youngsters the art of working with clay. Demos for all ages will be happening throughout the day, including: rug hooking, pottery, printmaking and painting. On the street there will be busking and music making, to keep things up-tempo. “It’s not just an art show and art sale, it’s a community activity too,” Holmes said, expressing the Arts Council’s gratitude for the businesses and volunteers, who get behind the AOA each year. But it’s mostly about the artists, and it’s a great opportunity for Ladysmith to show its support. “You’re buying right from the artists; you’re supporting the artist,” she said. You will also be getting original, juried art at a very significantly reduced price. Don’t miss out.

Beyond Your Expectations

Sheila Malcolmson NDP

Tim Tessier Liberal

The NDP has a plan that will make the economy work for Canadians. We will help the real job creators in Canada, our small business owners. While the Conservatives have cut taxes for the wealthiest companies, the NDP have committed to lower the small business corporate tax rate from 11 % to 9 %, and to make it easier for small business owners to deal with government programs and departments. The Conservatives have neglected the forestry sector – raw log exports have increased, 68 coastal mills have closed, and 6,800 forestry and related manufacturing jobs have been lost. New Democrats believe in getting the best value and the most jobs out of the logs harvested here. We’re committed to reducing raw log exports, investing in forestry innovation, research and development, and promoting value-added wood products at home and abroad. To boost the economy and create jobs, the NDP plan will: • create an innovation tax credit to encourage investment in machinery and equipment used by manufacturers to innovate, boost R & D and create jobs • extend the accelerated capital cost allowance for manufacturers • reduce credit card transaction fees charged to merchants, freeing up money to invest in hiring • restore the 15% tax credit for investments in laboursponsored funds to give small and medium sized businesses access to the funds they need to grow • invest in vital municipal and transportation infrastructure by increasing transfer of the existing gas tax to provide an additional $1.5 billion to local communities

The federal government has an obligation to lead a growth agenda that will benefit the middle class by investing in Education, Infrastructure, and finding new trade partners. We must open up markets abroad for Canadian resources, and to help create responsible ways to get those resources to those markets. Enhance tax measures to generate more clean technology investments, and work with the provinces and territories in order to make Canada the world’s most competitive tax jurisdiction for investments in the research, development, and manufacturing of clean technology. Ensure smart, sustainable investments in Canada’s infrastructure to create jobs, increase productivity, attract investment and improve our quality of life. We need middle class Canadians to have more money in their pockets to save, invest, and grow the economy – to bring back fairness and to strengthen the heart of the Canadian economy we’re going to give a tax break to middle class Canadians. A Liberal government will cut the middle class income bracket by 7% and a Liberal government will create the Canada Child Benefit, one fair, tax-free monthly child benefit that puts up to $533 a month per child back in the pockets of the middle class. We will also provide more help to lower income Canadians. Liberals believe the federal government should invest in the development of more affordable housing units to help Canadian families ease their cost of living.
