The mailboxes are...in the mail Canada Post behind on launching Campbell River’s mailboxes KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Monday was supposed to mark the end of home delivery in Campbell River but many households are still receiving mail at their door as they await their community mailbox. Letters sent by Canada Post in August to Campbell River homes said door-to-door delivery would cease Sept. 21 and residents could expect to have their mailbox keys mailed to them by Sept. 16. Monica Judd, president of the Campbell River Local of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers, said those dates were inaccurate and that Canada Post knew that. “Letter carriers were informed by Canada Post that letters they delivered stating that group mailbox keys would be delivered by Sept. 16 were inaccurate projections, but that the carriers were instructed to deliver these letters anyway,” Judd said. While most homes have received their keys, according to Canada Post, and are using their new community mailboxes, many are still waiting for their box to be installed. Judd said that, as of Tuesday afternoon, only 2,300 out of 8,700 points of call in Campbell River were ready to go. As a consequence, postal workers on Monday were scrambling to get
the mail out. Because community mailboxes cut down on the amount of time it takes a letter carrier to finish a route, each route has been made significantly larger. The new route sizes were in effect Monday and because some of the routes still required door-to-door delivery, it took nearly twice as much time to complete a route as it would normally. “Some people worked a 12 to 13 hour day (Monday),” Judd said. “The division of work is not equal, so overload is a big concern. I’m not sure when they will start to make the adjustments, but it would have made more sense to delay the implementation until after the boxes were in and people had their keys.” Jon Hamilton, a spokesperson with Canada Post, said most of the mailboxes are up and running and those that aren’t should be soon. “The majority of the households have switched over and we’re adding more and more each day but we’d rather make sure the process is done right,” Hamilton said. He added that some neighbourhoods are still waiting on their box for a variety of reasons, and that each box is tailored specially to that neighbourhood. He said Canada Post has to ensure Continued on Pg. 3

Meg Belanger begins the shaving of her husband Campbell River RCMP Const. John Belanger’s moustache at the Tour de Rock activity in Spirit Square on Tuesday. Belanger is a member of the Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock team which is cycling from Port Hardy to Victoria to raise awareness and funds for childhood cancer treatment and Camp Goodtimes. Belanger had promised to shave his moustache if he raised $5,000, a goal he has surpassed. See more pictures on page 4 and read Belanger’s blog entry on page 8.

Mailboxes: Home delivery continues in the meantime
Continued from Pg. 1
that the number of boxes on the mailbox lines up with the number of homes receiving mail, that the keys match up with the boxes, and in some cases, some people have certain specifications such as their box being a particular height from the ground. “It’s not as simple as just sticking any box on there,” Hamilton said. “That box is very much built and dedicated to your neighbourhood, it’s a very precise job.” This week, Canada Post sent a letter to those who are still waiting on their community mailbox promising that keys will be sent as soon as the box is installed. The letter states that, “we will soon install the community mailbox that will serve you and your neighbours.” It goes on to say that “until then, we will continue to deliver your mail and parcels to your door.” But do or-to-do or delivery is soon to be a thing of the past. The corporation announced on Oct. 27,

2014 that it will end home delivery for all Canadians in order to save an estimated $500 million a year. The move means that in Campbell River 13 full-time positions and one part-time position will be lost. Judd said because of the collective agreement, those employees do have job security, however, there are provisions Canada Post can invoke to displace those carriers to other areas which Judd said the corporation plans to do in 2016. Over and above those positions, there are 14 temporary Canada Post employees in Campbell River who are not expected to get work once the full restructure is implemented, Judd said.

Canada Post has said it’s phasing out home delivery in an effort to save money as behaviours are shifting and Canadians are mailing fewer pieces of mail than in the past. The corporation lost $125 million in 2013 but made a profit of $194 million in 2014. The corporation cited an increase in parcels shipped, higher stamp prices and reduced employee benefit costs for its financial success last year.

Suspect in custody in indecent exposure investigation
‘The instance (of exposure) was clearly deliberate,’ police say MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
children in the district were being encouraged to speak with their kids about this situation, adding, “school administration at Timberline, Penfield, Sandowne, Georgia Park and Southgate will be talking with students tomorrow (Wednesday) about this information, given their proximity to the area where these incidents have taken place.” When asked for comment on how the schools would be discussing the issue with the children, district communications and community engagement officer Jennifer Patrick said that would be up to each facility. “It is left to the principal’s discretion as to how best to handle communications of this nature based on the circumstance and in consideration of the age of the students in their school,”
Patrick said. “Generally, the message would be limited to the contents of our communication to parents; making students aware, advising them to walk to and from school with a buddy, and stressing that they should call 911 or tell their school principal if they experience a similar encounter.” The RCMP announcement of the apprehension echoed the sentiments of the district’s earlier release, adding that although the sus-
pect in this case is in custody, the public should “remember simple safety rules and pass them on to youth; walk to school with a friend, take busy, visible or well-lit routes. If you see something suspicious report it to a teacher, principal, parent or police.” Anyone with information about this or any other offences is being asked to contact Campbell River RCMP at 250286-6221 or CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
Police have a man in custody in the case that has been disturbing the Campbell River community since a release was issued late Tuesday night by the School District. School District 72 (SD72) superintendent Tom Longridge issued the public message to the community – which was also emailed to all parents of children in the district – saying Campbell River RCMP were investigating a report of “an individual who has exposed themselves on more than one occasion near Timberline Secondary School.” The release was in response to a report received by police earlier in the day. T he susp e c t w as described as a caucasian male of average height and average build wearing a light brown hoodie on one occasion and a light brown or tan hoodie on another occasion. “ The instance (of Dignity Memorial® providers offer each family we serve exposure) was clearly unlimited, complimentary access to our Compassion deliberate,” according ®. In your time of need, consider us on call. Helpline to Staff Sgt. Troy Beauregard in a later RCMP release.

Our View
Sugar tax may add common sense to our diet
You would never dream of cradling a bottle of tequila in your child’s left hand, a smoldering, fat cigar in her right, and sitting her down to savour the fumes wafting from the tailpipe of a running Chevrolet. Why aren’t you thinking twice before handing her an ice-cold bottle of pop? This week’s call from the Canadian Diabetes Association for a sugar tax is a terrific idea, one that our politicians need to endorse. Sugary drinks may be the single most under-appreciated health threat facing us today. The links between high sugar consumption, obesity and diabetes are well-known. The societal costs to families are incalculable, but the out-of-pocket burden on our health care system is easily tallied. According to the CDA, it will amount to $14 billion this year alone. It’s simply common sense for some of the cost to be shouldered at the root of the problem. Incessant burning of gasoline wreaks havoc with the environment, which in turn does the same to people’s respiratory systems. Alcohol takes a terrible toll on livers and on the families forced to struggle with the ramifications of addiction. The link between cigarettes and cancer and a bucketful of respiratory ailments is well-founded. Perhaps because we don’t want a nanny state, perhaps because we treasure freedom of choice, perhaps because we simply think life is better fueled by a judicious bit of tobacco, alcohol or gasoline we haven’t banned any of these noxious pleasures. But we haven’t ignored them either. Each has been the focus of widespread attempts to educate or even shame those who overuse and abuse. Each has been subjected to surcharges and levies aimed at recouping some of the cost it adds to our health care bills. The same needs to be done for sugary drinks. Pointed advertising campaigns need to target those who make a case of soft drinks a part of their weekly routine. Moms and dads need to be warned right at the store about the amount of empty calories that slushy drinks or jumbo-size sodas pump into their child’s system. Meanwhile, adding a sugar tax will create a new funding source for the treatment of diabetes and ailments related to obesity. It may also encourage people to shop for cheaper — and preferably healthier — alternatives to quench their thirst. By offering your child certain cans of pop, you are effectively spoonfeeding her 10 to 12 teaspoons of sugar with no other nutritional value whatsoever. If you saw your neighbours feeding their kids sugar by the spoonful, you’d probably be on the phone to social services. But for some reason not everyone is getting the message. We aren’t trying to demonize pop. We’re not saying never indulge yourself or your kids. The issue is that it should be a treat, not a regular dietary staple. If your kid is thirsty, give him or her a drink of water. Then call up your MP and urge them to do some sweet talking about a sugar tax.

Cancer survivor inspires Tour de Rock rider
Riders with the Tour de Rock were invited to submit an entry for the Tour’s blog. The following is local rider Cst. John Belanger’s thoughts during the Campbell River leg of the ride. This is my eighth time on Tour, but my first time as a bicycle rider. Previous to this year, I was a motorcycle escort rider. As a Tour de Rock rider now, it’s very different from being part of the support crew and motorcycle escort. The support crew is focused on getting the team down the road, whereas it’s all about the stops and meeting people and cycling as a rider. The other difference is, well, the hills are a much bigger struggle. But we’ve stayed together as a team while riding and we support each other, so we’ve done a really good job together. I first got involved with the Tour de Rock support crew because

River, so I know what to expect. I’ve also seen riders in years past go through these long, tough days; and I’ve seen them proudly conquer hills together as a team. The hills are a struggle sometimes, but our training has really paid off. The hills are really psychological because we just stuck to the training and listened to how our trainers told us to do hills, and we did awesome on every hill into Campbell River, and every hill so far on Tour. Coming home, as a rider, it was definitely emotional, especially when I saw my Junior Rider, Natalia, today at our amazing lunch at Dick’s Fish and Chips. I saw her beaming smile - this kid who’s been battling cancer and who’s really taking well to the treatments - and it’s amazing to see how she’s doing and how far she’s come, and it brings a tear to my eye. As a rider, Tour de

Rock forces you out of your comfort zone. I get nervous when I’m at a school and eyes are on me, but when I saw Natalia today and having her there with us at several of the schools, getting out of my comfort zone was a whole lot easier. It was easier because she was there with me and it just hits home why we’re here. She’s there and she inspires me. When I’m sore, when I’m going up a tough hill, when I’m feeling out of my comfort zone, I just think about her, think of her smile and it puts everything else to the wayside. Both at Campbell River Spirit Square and our fundraising dinner hosted by Boston Pizza so many groups and individuals shared their fundraising successes with us. This community has truly taken Tour de Rock into it heart. Now for some rest at Painters Lodge before another amazing day.

Important information regarding the federal election Unlike in the BC provincial elections where voters can vote at any polling station, in the Federal Election, voters must go to the polling location that has been assigned to them. Starting this week, millions of personalized Voter Information Cards (VIC) are being sent to registered voters’ homes including in Campbell River and area. Even more will be sent over the next 10 days. VIC’s contain that very important person-
alized polling location information. VICs identify each voter’s poll number and location for Election Day – Oct. 19 and the one for Advanced Polling Days (Thanksgiving Long weekend Oct. 9 – Oct. 12 – open each of the four days from noon to 8 p.m.). When voters receive their VIC, it’s a good idea to check their information. Voters who haven’t received their VIC by Oct. 1 or whose card
shows the wrong address can register or update their address online. Or, they can drop by a local Elections Canada office. To locate your local Elections Canada office you can also use the Voter Information Service tool on the Elections Canada home page at www.elections.ca Voters can vote today and any time up until Oct. 13 by 6 p.m. local time at an Elections Canada office using a Special Ballot.
E l e c t i ons C ana d a offices are open seven days a week and are there to help voters. Voters can call their local Elections Canada office as well or call the toll-free national line 1-800-463-6868 with any questions.

Riptide U15 girls show up strong Hom e te am f ans cheered as the Riptide U15 Girls soccer team displayed its skills in the first home game of the season in Courtenay (the team is made up of Upper Island players) on Saturday. Building on a win against Gorge the previous weekend, this decisive 3-1 win against Saanich, an historically strong team, adds to Riptide’s confidence as they head into a double header weekend against the two remaining teams in the league. While every player rose to the occasion for a well-rounded team effort against Saanich, in terms of the scoreboard, this game was a highlight for
Marine Harvest Riptide’s Ciara Halvorson who set her bar high with an assist and two goals. Pleased with another win, Riptide’s coaches, Matt Laver and Lisa Wigard, are instilling a broader perspective, explaining that, “The maturity is certainly showing so far with this group. We have been having them focus on a specific plan for each game rather than focus on the results.” After all, commitment, not results, is what can be controlled. Wigard’s pride in the players’ conduct is evident, sharing that, “They have done an excellent job so far staying focused, composed and confident.”

ing with the Nanaimo attacks and on the one occasion they did get through, ‘keeper Wylie Roberts came out and made an outstanding save. Shortly before the half time whistle Matt Wooff scored a fine goal with a strike from about 25 yards out. The second half saw Nanaimo make a significant number of subs and they changed their shape to a very attacking formation. Their forwards were all very quick and it led to Nanaimo playing a very direct style of knocking diagonal passes behind the Cermaq backline. Cont. page 16

Cermaq Wave like to get the ball on the floor and play a possessional type game but the constant harrying of the young Nanaimo team seemed to upset their flow. Despite this, the Campbell River boys were able to get the opening goal with a fine header from Shane Dumanoir after an excellent pass from Eddie Lawson. More goals might have followed with a number of near misses from some set pieces. Meanwhile, the Cermaq defence of Colan Grootenboer, Antho Seville, Peter McWilliams and John Jepson looked quite comfortable in deal-

Again keeper Roberts was alert to such dangers and came out on numerous occasions to quash the danger. To help counter this threat, Eric Roberts played a little deeper and helped set a strong defensive wall. Cermaq also consolidated their midfield and attack with Kellen McKeller and Jose Moon. The latter almost scored with a left-footed effort that drifted wide of the upright after 56 minutes. Keeper Roberts was to come to the rescue after 64 minutes when Nanaimo were awarded a dubious penalty after one of their strikers thought he was in the Nanaimo Aquatics Dive team. Justice was served when Roberts

stopped the ensuing penalty kick with a tremendous save to his left. Nanaimo certainly kept their spirits up and they are to be commended for their efforts. The three points were sealed after Bailey Gardener made a fast break from a fine pass of Jason Fawkes. The run was brought to an abrupt halt when he was upended in the other penalty area and Eddie Lawson scored from the spot. All in all a valuable three points in what looks to be a tough VISL Division. On Saturday, the Cermaq City Wave FC return to Campbell River and host Castaways at 2 p.m. at Willow Point Field.

Volunteers renovate the Centre for Spiritual Living which relocated to the former Elks Hall on Dogwood Street.
Centre for Spiritual Living celebrates 12 years
T
he Centre for Spiritual Living, Campbell River, celebrated 12 years of community, study and service with a gathering on Sunday, Sept. 20, at the newly-occupied Centre, 561 S. Dogwood St. Preceded by a guided meditation, the event also marked the graduation of students from 2014 and 2015 who completed classwork in Science of Mind, Prosperity Plus, and Ralph Waldo Emerson courses. This last year has been a busy and productive one for the Centre, with the recent acquisition of the property known as the old Elks Hall. The members are currently renovating the interior for multi-purpose use: in addition to the large meeting space and licensed commercial kitchen, rental offices are also being built. This ambitious project is underway completely
with volunteer labour, upwards of one thousand hours, and counting. Â At the same time, the Centre has participated in community events supporting the food bank, Red Cross and hospice; hosted a Circle of Love gathering on Quadra Island that saw attendees from all over North America, and, just for fun, orga-
nized many hikes and barbeques to celebrate summer in beautiful natural surroundings. The Centre is known for its inclusive nature, existing to encourage anyone who is interested in spiritual quest and education, regardless of background, lifestyle or chosen path. Its mission is to provide tools to support personal and global transformation.

Cancer car program benefits from people like Maureen and Harvey
I
vi real estate no vote no voice
PROCESS
t has been reported this past week that the Canadian Cancer Society has decided to discontinue its cancer car service in the Victoria area. However, on the rest of Vancouver Island, the Freemasons’ Cancer Car Program will continue. In part because of the support of people like Maureen Brinson and Harvey Hunter. Since 2008 these two people have quietly done their part to help Freemasons in Campbell River continue with the Freemasons’ Cancer Car Program for the North Island. As many people who have had cancer or those who
know someone who needed treatment each week, the Freemason’s Cancer Van drives them to Victoria and back home again without charge. In 2008, Harvey Hunter and Maureen Brinson both required this weekly service and saw the dedication of the Freemasons, their drivers, and dispatcher and decided to do something to support it. So each summer since then they have had a Beer & BBQ night in their garden by invitation and collected donations for the Freemasons’ Cancer Car Program. Last year was a very special year in that Maureen and Harvey
decided to be married at their Beer & BBQ affair (pictured above), but didn’t tell any of their invited guests that it would be any different than any other year. Only when everyone had been told that there was to be a speech did anyone take notice that a commissioner of marriage was there and Maureen and Harvey were standing in front of him. A one-year anniversary was held this summer with once again the donation being taken for the Freemasons’ Cancer Car. Over the years Maureen and Harvey have donated approximately $6,300 for this worthwhile
program, which has been operating since 1991. The Freemasons purchase and insure the vans, pay for fuel, and pay for maintenance and repairs. The Canadian Cancer Society provides the initial patient contact and covers the telephone costs. Each Freemason pays an annual levy to support the program, but bequests and donations like Maureen & Harvey Hunter’s help fund this service. With no paid staff and all of the volunteers and people like the Hunters’ efforts the Freemason’s Cancer Car Program makes life easier for Campbell River cancer patients.

Recycling bins to stay, after all Over 350 tonnes of recycling is collected each year at Sportsplex and Strathcona Gardens locations
until other options are considered.” Gurak said the board, at its Sept. 17 meeting at the Maritime Heritage Centre, discussed establishing a Multi-Material BC (MMBC) depot at the south end of the city before removing the Strathcona Gardens location, which is not an MMBC facility. O n l y t h e Is l a n d Return-It Centre on Willow Road and the recycling depot at the Campbell River landfill are
KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Recycling bins at Strathcona Gardens will not be removed this fall after regional district directors rejected a suggestion from their staff to eliminate the depot. Staff from the Comox Valley Regional District, which operates the region’s solid waste function, were recommending the depot be phased out and closed effective Nov. 31.
“
THEY SAID IT: “Waste is frequently left at the depots and the recycling bins are contaminated with un-recyclable items.”
– Jesse Lee
But the board, which is made up of directors from both the Comox Valley and Strathcona regional districts, thought otherwise. “The motion to keep the green bin recycling depot at Strathcona Gardens recreation complex was overwhelmingly supported by the Comox Strathcona Waste Management board,” said Koreen Gurak, manager of communications for the Comox Valley Regional District. “So the Strathcona Gardens depot will remain on site
MMBC-certified centres which means they accept materials like styrofoam and glass which cannot be disposed of at the Strathcona Gardens and Sportsplex depots or through the city’s curbside recycling program. Coun. Larry Samson said at last week’s city council meeting that those depots work just fine but they’re not as convenient as the bins at Strathcona Gardens. “It’s at the north end of town and it’s not readily available to the family who wants to do

their recycling at night because they work all day,” Samson said. “They have to put the material on a cart, wheel it in and wait for someone to approach them - it’s not as handy.” And, according to data from the Comox Valley Regional District, the bins at Strathcona Gardens – and the Sportsplex – are wellused. The bins at the Gardens collect roughly 366 tonnes of recyclables per year while the depot at the Sportsplex takes in approximately 352 tonnes each year. Both bins, however, have been on the chopping block over the last couple of years because of the $149,000 annual operating cost. Of that, $36,000 is spent on clean-up due to misuse of the facility, according to Jesse Lee, manager of Comox Strathcona Waste Management operations. “One of the most challenging issues concerning our remaining nonMMBC recycling depots is the misuse,” Lee wrote in a report to the solid waste board, in recommending closure of the Strathcona Gardens depot. “Waste is frequently left at the depots and the recycling bins

are contaminated with un-recyclable items.” Lee said garbage, hazardous waste such as chemicals, furniture and household refuse is routinely dropped off at the free recycling bins and has been a source of neighbourhood complaints. Solid waste staff, in the spring, were therefore recommending Strathcona Gardens’ depot be closed in the fall with the Sportsplex bins being eliminated if and when the city implements a curbside recycling program for multi-family complexes. At last week’s council meeting, however, solid waste staff said they had had a change of heart and the Sportsplex was no longer being considered for removal.

SD72 should put more aside for ‘rainy day fund’ MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
School District 72 (SD72) received the audited financial statements for last fiscal year at a special meeting of the Board of Trustees Tuesday, and for the second year in a row the report from auditor Brad Piercy of MNP was a positive one for the district. “It’s a clean audit,” Piercy told the board. “We had no management letter, so there were no internal control deficiencies – meaning Kevin (Patrick, secretary-treasurer) and Karen (Geisler, assistant secretarytreasurer) are running that department in a very good manner. There were no (accounting) issues.” There was, however, one particular recommendation made in the report which the board has been advised to consider as they move forward in their future financial planning. “If I was on your side of the table, not on the audit side, I would want to make sure I had at least one month of contingency reserve unequivocally set aside,” Piercy told the board. “One month of expenses for you is $5.6 million, so from my personal perspective, you should have upwards of $5 million set aside.” Piercy used an example of a household budget to make his point. “If you’re making a home
budget, and everyone is making a paycheque, and you’re you’re going through $5,000 in expenses every month, it kind of makes sense to always have $5,000 at the beginning of the month just as your cushion.” Currently, the district has $1 million in a contingency reserve, which equates to less than one week of operating cost. “As both an auditor and as an accountant working in other entities,” Piercy said, “I would say that’s one place where you should at least be having a discussion.” The 2015-16 budget was passed in May, but the district revises that document – usually in or around February to address updated needs, revenues or expenses that it has become aware of during the school year – and Piercy recommended that they consider adding more funds to that contingency when preparing that revision. Currently, the budget is set to continue placing $1 million into that contingency fund per year, so increasing that amount would mean those funds would have to come out of something else. But it wouldn’t negatively affect service levels, the board was told. “It’s just a number shuffle,” Piercy said, meaning the board would simply be taking surplus funds from one area and placing them in another.

MIKE DAVIES/CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Kevin Patrick, secretary-treasurer of School Disrtict 72 (right) has been running a tight ship, based on back-to-back clean financial audits.
Currently, the district has about $3.1 million in an “internally restricted reserve,” meaning that money is already earmarked for specific projects, but also has about $3.3 million in “unrestricted operating reserves,” so they could just shift another million or two out of that column into their “operational needs contingency reserve,” until they have the recommended total of one month’s operating expenses in the bank. “While the dollars are there, set it aside,” Piercy recommended. The benefit of doing this is mainly for administrative simplification. “On the financial side of things, it makes an accounting
office run so much smoother if you have cash in the bank, because you don’t have to worry about meeting payroll, you don’t have to be worrying about making the progress payments on seismic upgrades or construction. “It just makes the accounting office and the clerks’ job 100 times easier when you’re not having to deal with cash calls for anything.” “So we won’t have any more money or any less money, but we have more comfort?” asked trustee Ted Foster. “Correct,” answered Piercy. The board of trustees will consider the recommendation moving forward with further budgets.

Over vocal objections from some representatives, local politicians have narrowly endorsed a call for an “environmental bill of rights” for B.C. at their annual convention. Calling it “an idea whose time has come,” Richmond Coun. Harold Steves sponsored the motion Wednesday at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention in Vancouver. It calls for recognition of a right to “live in a healthy environment, including the right to clean air, clean water, clean food and vibrant ecosystems.” Steves reminded delegates of a summer of smoke from forest fires and a drought that saw his Cache Creek farm run out of water. He noted the bill of rights has been supported by 36 municipalities around B.C., after a tour of local councils by the David Suzuki Foundation’s Blue Dot campaign. The idea was quickly challenged. “How is this resolution going to prevent forest fires and create clean air?” North Cowichan Coun. Al Siebring asked. “It’s not.” Williams Lake Mayor Walt Cobb dismissed the bill of rights movement as “David Suzuki propaganda” backed by urban people who don’t understand mining and forestry provide the lumber, copper and other products that build their communities.

B.C. municipal leaders voted by a slim margin Wednesday to urge the province to enable online voting in time for the 2018 local elections. The resolution from Osoyoos was passed by 51 per cent of delegates at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention in an electronic vote after it had initially been declared defeated in a show of hands. Advocates say the convenience of online voting could boost the dismal

the province
turnout of municipal elections and engage many more young people. Van c ouve r C ou n . Andrea Reimer said no municipality would be forced to adopt online voting, the aim is
merely to make it an available option for communities and individuals that want it. But Saanich Coun. Vic Derman warned there’s no way to guarantee an online voter is casting their ballot in privacy, without someone else directing or manipulating them, possibly buying their vote. Home Garden Beach Cottage • Your own original Paintings “It does affect one’s privacy of vote that should take place behind a screen at a ballot box,” said Lorne Lewis, a SunStudio/Gallery Black Creek shine Coast Regional District director. He said Open Weekends 11-3 it’s wrong “to put people 250-337-1941 in a situation where they www.brianscottfineart.com can be badgered about

their vote.” The close vote suggests the issue is having increasing trouble gaining traction. A similar UB CM motion in 2011 passed by a two-to-one margin. Since then, an independent panel struck by the provincial government concluded last year that the risks outweigh the benefits, and recommended that any move to online voting be limited to voters with specific accessibility challenges. That report by B.C.’s chief electoral officer also found no evidence of a significant increase in voter turnout in other jurisdictions that have adopted online voting. Reimer isn’t concerned about the close vote and said online voting for B.C. mayors and councils is inevitable. “The only question is when and how far behind other jurisdictions we’ll be when we get to that point.”

As RMP, James will continue to serve his clients in the forestry sector while leading the overall growth of our Island offices in Campbell River, Courtenay, Nanaimo, Duncan, Victoria, as well as our emerging Northern B.C. region with offices in Prince George and Vanderhoof.
Building on the strong foundation that Garth leaves behind, we look forward to the vision, leadership and entrepreneurial spirit that James brings to our team, our clients and our communities.

INTO
A Look Back
THE HISTORY OF THE CAMPBELL RIVER AREA
Pioneer photographer Henry Twidle
He passed away in 1956. After he died, vandals broke into his Brown’s Bay home and destroyed most of his negatives and camera equipment; however some were saved by close friend Milt Adams, whose widow later donated hundreds of his glass slides and an antique lantern projector to the Museum at Campbell River. The Museum currently has a temporary exhibit showcasing Twidle’s work entitled Granite Bay: Through Twidle’s Lens that will be on display until Oct. 8.
CATHERINE GILBERT MUSEUM AT CAMPBELL RIVER
I
n an era when frontier photographers and cameras were rare, Henry Twidle had a passion for taking images of the life around him. He created a photographic record of the Campbell River region, and in particular of Quadra Island that helps us to visualize the early years of settlement, and that adds richly to our knowledge of that history. Twidle had immigrated to British Columbia from England in 1903 and arrived first in Vancouver, where he found work as a professional photographer. He met his wife-to-be Agnes there and once they were married, the couple moved to the frontier community of Rock Bay on Vancouver Island’s east coast. In Rock Bay Twidle, who had trained as a bookkeeper in England, worked as a timekeeper and store manager for BC Mills Timber and Trading Company, commonly known as Hastings Mill. In 1910, the Twidles moved to Granite Bay on Quadra Island where they were to remain for 40 years. Here, the couple operated the general store and hotel which they bought from Hosea Bull in 1911, and Henry became the postmaster and stipendiary magistrate. Henry became a trustee of the first log school that opened in Granite Bay in 1912 and remained in that position until he left to retire in Brown’s Bay in 1950.
As a person of education, he was a contrast to the typical frontier resident of the time and was deemed all the more curious for his butterfly collection and photography hobby. Close to home he captured everyday images in the portraits of neighbours and created a visual record of industrial activity like the Lucky Jim mine. Twidle used a method for taking and developing his pictures that is known as the wet glass plate method. He travelled about the coast in a small gasboat, and to employ this method, it meant that he would have to take a portable darkroom, glass plates and all the necessary chemicals with him. Twidle took pictures of native residents, homesteaders, isolated settlements, logging scenes, fishing boats, steam-
ships and spectacular scenery. After Agnes’ death in 1951, Henry remained in Brown’s
Bay for another four years, then moved to Campbell River to be closer to medical care.

Second garage fire in a week
Another fire caused by combustible materials located too close to a heat source has damaged a Willow Point home. At 1 p.m. on Sept. 21, Campbell River Fire Department responded to a report of a fire in a residence in Willow Point. “The fire was reported by a neighbour who heard the sound of a smoke alarm in the home,” says deputy fire chief Thomas Doherty. “When the neighbour investigated, he saw fire and smoke in the living
room of the single-storey building.” No one was home, and the neighbour quickly called 911 and waited for fire crews to arrive. “When firefighters entered the home, they found smoke throughout and a small fire in the living room that had burned itself out,” Doherty adds. “We commend the actions of the neighbour – in particular for not trying to open a door or window, which would have provided oxygen to the fire and caused it to spread rap-
idly.” Fire damage was minimal, but the home had smoke damage throughout. Earlier this month, a fire in a home in Willow Point was caused by combustible wood furniture placed too close to an electric heating unit. “The fire department reminds the public to keep combustible materials away from heat sources, especially with the cooler weather season upon us,” Doherty emphasizes. Fire crews were also out early Sunday morn-
ing for a garage fire on 5th Ave. Shortly after 6:30 a.m. on Sept. 20, crews responded to a fire in a detached garage. “When crews arrived, the owner was attempting to extinguish the blaze with a garden hose, which prevented the fire from spreading,” Doherty says. “This fire was noticed by the next door neighbour who ran to alert the home owner.” Fire crews quickly extinguished the fire, which damaged the exterior wall of the garage.

Annual gala dinner and vacation draw The Campbell River Community Foundation will hold its second Annual Gala Dinner & Vacation Draw will be held on Saturday, Oct. 24 at the Dolphins Resort. The event, which features a reversedraw of 10 unique vacation getaways, was a huge success last year, raising over $10,000 for the Community Foundation. This year’s grand prize will be an all-inclusive week for two to the beautiful Riu Palace in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. “We wanted to create a fundraising event that people could get excited about,” explains Gala Committee Chair Amanda Raleigh. And this is exactly that. The unique reverse-draw structure works by removing ticket holders’ names from the draw as the evening unfolds. Ticket holders are then given opportunities to re-enter the running throughout the night for
MANAGING YOUR MONEY 4x10 and Realities Retirement: Myths Ken Garraway Senior Financial Consultant
Whether your retirement is just around the corner or way down the road, you probably think about it – the shape of it, the quality of it – and perhaps worry about it, too. That’s why you plan for retirement – to eliminate as many unknowns as possible and to chart the right retirement course for you. But every solid plan needs a solid foundation. The good news is that in this electronic age, there’s lots of information out there. The bad news is there’s also a lot of misinformation out there. So to give your plan the solid foundation it needs, let’s dispel some myths and look at some basic realities of retirement.
Reality: Sure, having money definitely provides additional choices in retirement but the reality is that people tend to ‘right-size’ their retirement lifestyle in line with their financial resources.

higher odds...but at a higher price! “It was incredible seeing the enthusiasm from everyone last year and we could not be more thrilled to run this event again,” says Raleigh. The Foundation is actively looking for community sponsors interested in supporting the event, either through vacation sponsorships, donation of travel points or cash in-kind. Proceeds from the Gala go directly back to the residents of Campbell River through the Foundation’s community grants, which support a wide range of local organizations and projects like Sightseeing for Seniors through the Adult Care Society, What’s Next 707 through the Head Injury Support Society, Explorer Lab development through the Discovery Passage SeaLife Society, and many more.For ticket and sponsorship information, visit www.crfoundatioo.ca/events.
choices.
The biggest issue is your health – poor physical or mental health removes choices whether you have money or not. So your plan should include maintaining and improving your health and knowing how health issues will be handled before they happen. Myth: The biggest risk to your retirement income is the stock market Reality: Yes, poor investment returns early in retirement can have an impact, but avoiding the stock market by sheltering your investments in low-return vehicles such as Guaranteed Investment Certificates (GICs) may not be the answer. Unlike GICs, equity investments can provide the opportunity for the level of growth over the long term that can offset the effects of inflation. So, your plan should include strategies for accessing market growth while still protecting your income from the impact of a short term market turndown. Myth: You’ll have plenty of spare time.
little spare time. Life tends to expand to fill up time so your plan should ensure your time fills up with things that are meaningful to you. Myth: People work in retirement because of financial need.

Library board adopts balanced budget

The Board of Trustees for Vancouver Island Regional Library (VIRL) has adopted a balanced operating budget of $33,062,045 for 2016. Under the Library Act, public libraries are required to adopt a balanced budget each year. Municipal and rural levies will contribute $20,372,451 to the library budget, which represents an average increase of 3.66 per cent or a per capita increase of $1.68. The expenditures drive VIRL’s strategic 10-year plan to financial sustainability and the continued
appropriation of library services to the 39 communities it serves. The focus of the 2016 budget is to assure that VIRL can continue to meet its service standards and maintain financial sustainability while achieving the Board’s mission and vision, VIRL press release says. The 2016 - 2020 Financial Plan is a secure means to balance the needs and aspirations of the present, without compromising the future needs of our growing communities. The 2016 budget sup-
ports the Board’s Strategic Plan, reinforces the principles of the Consolidated Facilities Master Plan, and provides systematic funding development as previously approved by the Board. “It is our goal to balance the pressures of maintaining existing services and evolving business, in order to meet the expectations of our communities with

What a lot of people don’t know is that this may be caused by damage to the so-called motor or amplifier function of special cells in the ear. A new type of hearing aid can help balance this out.
A great many people have difficulty hearing others clearly on a daily basis. Bad acoustics, unclear pronunciation, background noise and music often make it challenging to catch what people say. This results in them having to repeatedly ask questions, straining to hear and perhaps increasingly avoiding discussions in large groups. As mentioned earlier, this may be caused by malfunctions in special cells in the ear. According to a theory proposed by hearing researchers, “motor cells� are a type of hair cell responsible for amplifying quiet sounds. They vibrate up to 20,000 times per second. If these hair cells do not work properly then quiet sounds are no longer naturally

Musical to make its Campbell River debut
Matthew Good, the best-selling Canadian indie artist of all time, is coming to Campbell River Nov. 7 at the Tidemark Theatre.
Matthew Good taking chaos on the road In support of the highly anticipated release of his seventh solo album, Matthew Good announces the Chaotic Neutral Tour with dates across the country this fall. The tour kicks off in Victoria on Nov. 6 and includes a stop in Campbell River on Nov. 7. Special guest, Scott Helman will perform as support on all dates. In his two decades defining the landscape of the Canadian music
scene, Good has sold nearly a million albums, has been nominated for 20 Juno Awards, winning four, and is on his way to becoming the best-selling Canadian indie artist of all time. In the early 90s, Good formed the Matthew Good Band, which would go on to net two Juno Awards for the Canadian rock classic, Beautiful Midnight, before disbanding in 2002. Since 2003, Good has been on his
own through seven solo albums, surviving missed diagnoses and hospitalizations, a return to indie status, and a sea change in the music industry. C haotic Ne utral , scheduled for release today, Sept. 25, is available now digitally through iTunes and on CD and vinyl through matthewgood.org. On this album Good handed over the reins to his long-time producer Warne Livesey. He also
brought in a handful of notables including Holly McNarland, Bones Hillman (Midnight Oil), Blake Manning, Anthony Wright, Stu Cameron and Sam Goldberg Jr. (Broken Social Scene). “The process for this one was great,” Good says. “I got to say, ‘I’m just going to be the artist on this thing,’ which I found massively liberating.” Sponsored by the Campbell River Mir-
ror, 2Day FM and Coast Discovery Inn, the Tidemark Theatre and Gee Dan Productions proudly present Matthew Good at the Tidemark Theatre on Nov. 7. Tickets are $45.50 (plus applicable taxes and fees) and can be purchased at the Box Office on Tuesday or Friday between 12 and 4 p.m. Tickets are also available online at www. tidemarktheatre.com
Shoreline Musical Theatre Society presents Hello, Dolly!, the Tony Award winner for best Broadway musical, at the Tidemark Theatre in November. What better way to brighten up a grey fall day than a trip to the theatre? Especially to see one that has never been mounted before in Campbell River. With a cast of 30, a production team of 20, and a full orchestra conducted by John Montgomery, Hello, Dolly! is a mammoth undertaking by Shoreline. Heather Gordon Murphy, who is directing, brings 25 years of experience choreographing shows. This is her fifth year directing musicals for Shoreline Musical Theatre Society. In the last few years, she was also one of the choreographers for the opening and closing ceremonies of the Winter Olympics and for Cirque du Soleil’s production in Baku, Azerbaijan for

Rivercity Players presents Learn to play the ukelele within an ensemble an Evening of One Acts
Rivercity Players is presenting an Evening of One Acts. First on the program is Day Trippers by Jean Mcconnell. This comedy is about two women (played by Lynne Macara and Susan Wydenes) who are on a work outing to the coast. D ur ing t he play, they learn more about themselves and their
co-workers than they expected. “This play is about the roles people play in their lives,” says Director Alistair Taylor, “and how that impacts re l at i on s h ip s w it h friends, co-workers and others.” Day Trippers will be Rivercity Players’ entry into the Vancouver Island One Act Play Festival in November.
Chocolate by Fred Stroppel is next. This naughty comedy is performed by Alexandra Mason and Collin Massie, and tells the story of a curious murder investigation. Director Susan Wydenes expects audiences will have a good laugh and be surprised at the outcome. At the end of the eve-
ning, there will a scene from Rivercity Players’ upcoming production, Who’s on First?, which opens on Oct. 22. The Evening of One Acts will be performed at the Rivercity Stage, 1080 Hemlock Street, on Friday and Saturday, Sept. 25 and 26. The show starts at 7:30 p.m., and admission is by donation.

costumes; three to four part choral harmony; and great performances from local talent. Judith McFarlane plays Mrs. Dolly Gallagher Levi. She’s following in the footsteps of Carol Channing, Pearl Bailey and Barbra Streisand. It takes bravery to follow these star performers, but McFarlane is up for it. After all, she was the first female RCMP officer to come to Campbell River. Known locally for her beautiful voice, McFarlane will play opposite Stan Leete, who takes on the role of Horace Vandergelder. It will be the second time they’ve played together in featured roles. They wowed the audiences as Mr. and Mrs. Bumble in Oliver, an earlier Shoreline production. The cast also includes well-loved community players, Rudi Kreis and Stu Morrison, who will play Cornelius Hackl and Rudolph Reisenweber respectively. What’s also striking about this show is the fact that Gordon Murphy and John Bailey, the set designer, have come up with a novel feature.
Local sponsors will have their business names on old-time signs featured in the show’s New York City streetscape and in the parade. With only four perfor-
mances, Shoreline recommends getting your tickets early. Shows are Thursday, Nov. 19 at 7:30 p.m., Friday, Nov. 20 at 7:30 p.m., and Saturday, Nov.21 at 2 p.m. and 7:30
p.m. Tickets are $27 plus applicable Tidemark fees. For more information and how to get involved, contact Heather Gordon Murphy at, heather@ coremoves.ca

A new stage of BC Hydro’s John Hart Generating Station Replacement Project is beginning behind the existing powerhouse on the Campbell River. Blasting is set to begin on a new outlet where water from the new underground powerhouse will be released from the tunnel into the Campbell River. Trees have already been cleared on the slope and the next phase began this week with surface blasting on the slope to the north of the hydroelectric penstocks, between the powerhouse and Station View Trail. “This is another interesting component of this innovative project and unlike other John Hart construction site locations, this area is closest to the river and trail system,” says BC Hydro’s Stephen Watson. “People will be able to see the work from the wooden bridge on the Station View Trail so we wanted to make sure the community understands what’s going on there. Site construction is expanding to all the key areas and we are excited to see things unfold.” The project contractor will excavate a pie-slice shape into the slope, with the deepest point reaching 32 metres. The main blasting work is expected to last through December. Until the new works are complete and ready for commissioning, an area of rock will be left along the river edge to keep the tunnel opening dry. The surface blasting will occur four or five times a week, and only during daylight hours. Measures are put in place to prevent fly-rock from the surface blasts and as a result of safety precautions, trail closures are not anticipated. Project staff will ask people to keep moving along the trail just prior to the blasts, as they don’t want people to linger on the pedestrian bridge waiting for a blast to happen. Watson said the surface blasts are highly controlled and covered with blast matting, so should provide limited noise to the surrounding area. People in vehicles who enter Powerhouse Road off Highway 28 to access the public parking lot and trail by the river may also see an increase in construction traffic as trucks move material off-site. BC Hydro and InPower BC ask that drivers be mindful of the posted speed limits, the large vehicles on the two-lane road, and of trail users crossing the road. “Safety is of critical importance to everyone working on this project, and we appreciate the community’s patience and understanding so that we can ensure each step of this project is completed safely,” said Paul Sawyer, CEO for InPower BC. Extensive environmental planning, approvals and monitoring are required for any work near the river, and the project team has prepared extensively to ensure all standards are met or exceeded. Any questions about the upcoming blasting work can be directed to Stephen Watson at 250-755-4795 or steve.watson@bchydro.com.

he Iberian peninsula has at least been making wine for the past 3000 years, and has a rich history on the development of wine and what is has become today. Spain is one the oldest wine producing countries in the world, with evidence of the first grape vines being planted around 1100 B.C. in the region of Andalucía. Like a Bull in China Shop Red (48363) $8.70 is medium-bodied with jammy fruit flavors of berries and plums.

Tempranillo has more than a dozen different aliases around the world. It’s called Tinto Fino in Ribera del Duero, Tinta de Toro in Toro, Ull de Llebre in Catalonia, Cencibel in La Mancha and Tinto Roriz in Portugal. Masia F Tempranillo (446963) $11.90 shows surprising intensity and varietal character. With aromas and flavours of dusty blackberry, raspberry, cherry and plum, it is a rich and juicy mouthful of mediumbodied red that finishes with notes of vanilla, and earthy oak.

This Tempranillo is deep cherry red and it sizzles with aromas of sweet and spicy red and black berry fruit flavours before finishing with a subtle spritz of sweet vanilla and cloves. Jumilla is situated in south-eastern Spain, in the northern part of the Murcia region. In 1989 – more than a century after it devastated most of Europe’s vineyards - the root louse phylloxera vastatrix finally arrived in Jumilla. As phylloxera spread, grapevines succumbed, and Jumilla’s growers had to make some hard choices. Many growers chose to replant with Monastrell, a native grape particularly suited to the region’s drought-prone climate. Others diversified, planting a wide range of foreign grape varieties, such as Petit

This is a generous, powerful and inviting red, rich with aromas and flavours of jammy blueberries, dusty blackberries, spicy cloves and sweet sprinklings of vanilla and caramel. Situated on the sunny Mediterranean coast, Valencia is better known for its seafood and oranges. Young winemakers and modern techniques are turning that perception on its head.

MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
The City of Campbell River, in collaboration with various advocacy groups, has been working hard on making the inaccessible in our community more accessible. Another project furthering that cause was unveiled this week, though it has already been in use by the public for almost a month. The concept of implementing a wheelchair accessible beachfront path at Ken Forde Boat Launch – brought before council in 2014 by the Campbell River Access Awareness Committee – has come to fruition. “Going to the beach is such a big part of the Campbell River lifestyle,” said Access Awareness Committee member Melanie Olsen at the unveiling on Monday, “and I’m really happy that my family can access the beach via these amazing mats that have been put in, and have a fire, and just have that opportunity to enjoy how beautiful it is down here.” Olsen is relatively new to the committee, but is excited to be a part of improving the accessibility of Campbell River for people like Ron Nicolaye, who has been working on these issues for some time. Nicolaye, who is wheelchair-bound himself and has been on the Access Awareness Committee for “about 19 years,” says he has definitely seen improvement in accessibility over his time with the group. “Every year we see changes,” said Nicolaye,

Olsen said she hopes this project will spur more such initiatives in the future. “There are lots of places in Campbell River that aren’t accessible enough to all people.

At that, Parker said that while the original plan was to make the path go all the way down onto the beach itself – which would have created the very situation they deal with in Comox, having to take it out in the winter – they stopped the installation above high-tide instead, leaving them with leftover mats. “So we are hoping to eventually install another one somewhere else, as well,” Parker said. They are waiting for feedback from the community before deciding on a location for the second installation. Feedback on the mats and thoughts on future locations for more projects like this can be sent to Ridgway at the Community Centre by calling 250-286-1161 or emailing judy.ridgway@ campbellriver.ca

City to adjust firearms prohibition boundary KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
The city is adjusting the boundary that dictates where firearms can be discharged. The change is aimed at making it easier to decipher where it is prohibited to set off firearms. City Clerk Peter Wipper said each year, during and prior to the hunting season, the city receives several inquiries asking for clarification on where firearms are allowed to be discharged. “One reason for the
inquiries is because the map is difficult to discern,” Wipper wrote in a report to city council. “It is recommended that the map be replaced with an up-to-date, user friendly version utilizing current mapping technology, including visual reference to identifiable land marks.” The new updated map will also include a couple of small boundary adjustments. While studying the map, city staff noted the existing boundary along the north side of John Hart
Lake encroaches into Elk Falls Provincial Park. On the new map, the boundary line has been moved from Loveland Bay Road to the north shore of John Hart Lake to avoid any conflict with the park regulations. Wipper said the map also includes an adjustment to incorporate 5301 Duncan Bay Road into the prohibited area, which includes property within the city boundaries. The Duncan Bay site was left out of the original map because the property was incorpo-

rated into the city after the boundaries were adopted in 1994. At council’s Sept. 14 meeting, city staff were recommending council give first, second and third reading to the bylaw in order to have the map established in time for the hunting season which is now underway. But Coun. Charlie Cornfield was hesitant to adopt the new boundary lines because of the way firearms are defined in the bylaw that contains the map. “I have a concern over the definition of firearms, and understand I definitely support safety when it comes to the discharge of what I consider a firearm, but this one includes pellet guns and B.B. guns and other compressed air or spring compressed devices,” Cornfield said. “Would that include inside a house? Myself, I
case he would only be comfortable passing first and second reading which would give staff time to report back before third reading and adoption. Cornfield made that motion but it was defeated by councillors Michele Babchuk, Colleen Evans, Ron Kerr and Marlene Wright. Coun. Kerr said he didn’t think anything would change by amending the map. “It’s my understanding that we’re just looking at some minor amendments and adjustments to the maps; we’re not changing anything,” Kerr said. “So if it’s legal at this point it would be legal afterwards.” The majority of council agreed and approved first, second and third reading of the bylaw and boundary adjustments with councillors Cornfield and Larry Samson opposed.

reading the bylaw correctly? Would it actually prohibit that?” Tracy Bate, the city’s deputy city clerk who was filling in for Wipper, said she wasn’t familiar with the file and would have to get back with that information. Cornfield said in that

‘Most important election in First Nations peoples history’ KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
“I think it’s been said to me before, actually by David Suzuki this might be the most important election in First Nations peoples history.” That was the closing remark from moderator Ken Watts, vice-president of the Nuu-chahnulth Tribal Council, at an all-candidates meeting Tuesday night at the Thunderbird Hall. Watts’ speech underscored the importance behind the forum which was hosted by the Nuuchah-nulth Tribal Council and the Wei Wai Kum First Nation in an effort to drive people to the polls on election day, Oct. 19. Attendance at the forum, however, was sparse; approximately 30 people. The forum kicked off with the four candidates each allotted 10 minutes to discuss their party’s
platform, before delving into issues near and dear to First Nations’ hearts. Questions from the audience largely centred around fisheries and First Nations’ rights. Last year, the Supreme Court of Canada upheld a 1990 B.C. court decision confirming the right of native people to fish and sell their catch. The candidates were asked what their party, if elected, would do to implement that decision. Brenda Sayers, representing the Green Party of Canada, was the first to speak and said while she wasn’t able to answer directly because the matter is before the courts, she could say the way First Nations have been treated is wrong. “I will speak to the unfairness of our people continually having to go before the courts to protect their rights,” said Sayers, who is a member of the Hupacasath First Nation. “For us to be able

to go out onto the rivers to do what we’ve always done, or to hunt, and to not be able to do that, to me is a direct violation. I will do my best to work with other Green MPs and other members of parliament to find a solution.” Peter Schwarzhoff of the Liberal Party of Canada said he believes Fisheries and Oceans Canada needs some “major shake ups in how they get things done. There are some serious problems within DFO (department of Fisheries and Oceans) that need addressing, not only your issues but fish allocation generally. I think there is a very flawed process in how that’s done.”

Laura Smith with the Conservative Party – the current governing party in Canada – said her government is not appealing the decision upheld by the Supreme Court which said the c u r re nt re g u l at or y regime infringes on the rights of First Nations to fish and sell the fish. “It’s an important decision and I believe the government has accepted that,” Smith said. “We’re not appealing that decision but what we do want clarity on is whether it’s a justifiable infringement or not. I know there have been past decisions that have said you have to accommodate but there can be policies that infringe on rights that can be justified.” The NDP’s Rachel Blaney said the court
case is evidence that there needs to be better cooperation and consultation between the federal government and First Nations. “When I look at the relationship between First Nations people and government right now, it’s adversarial, it’s ‘let’s go to court about everything’ and we need to start actually having those conversations and making those decisions together.” Blaney added that it’s important the government creates a relationship with a lot more respect towards First Nations. “We don’t want to be a government that takes First Nations people to court again and again.” Economics 101 The candidates were also questioned on how to stimulate the economies of each community within the North IslandPowell River riding. Schwarzhoff said there are still the traditional industries, including

salmon fishing and forestry. He said if the Liberal Party takes power, it will provide money to First Nations communities. “We’re going to be putting money back into First Nations education,” Schwarzhoff said. “We know there’s a gap, we’re going to close the gap. We’re going to be creating additional funding for people wanting to go to post secondary education or for skills training.” He said the Liberal Party platform is focused on building new infrastructure and one of the things the party will require is apprenticeships for those projects. “Why wouldn’t we have the opportunity for First Nations to get the training, become apprentices and develop their skills?” The Conservatives’ Smith said the Island has long suffered from a boom and bust economy due to its reliance on natural resources. “But we still have the fisheries sector, we have a lot of potential in the aquaculture sector as long as it can be done in an environmentally sustainable way,” Smith said. “We have a lot of opportunity with energy and hydro projects – the Quatsino First Nation is working on a windmill power project up north.” Smith added that First Nations have rights and titles they need to develop for their own prosperity. Blaney agreed Islanders live in a boom and bust economy and said the NDP will support First Nations’ desires to
remain in place. “It’s about having good consultation with those communities ab out what they need, what are we going to do and how do we support them,” Blaney said. “For us, it’s about infrastructure. We know housing is a huge issue across the board. I’m getting a lot of calls about terrible housing in some of the communities and we need to be looking at what we’re doing in terms of infrastructure.” Sayers, who comes from a business background, said if elected she will first look at the landscape and determine what’s there in the way of economic development in each community. “There’s also looking at green energy – there’s one in the North Island that’s very successful – and tourism. Tourism is another great area, as well as the arts,” Sayers said. “An area that’s not really talked about a lot is the arts. We have a lot of really skilled people in that area. It’s an area that we don’t really focus on a lot and it’s really important to us.” For more on the candidates’ take on First Nations issues, see next week’s edition of the Mirror.

Forum gives seniors close look at federal candidates MIKE DAVIES
CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
All four candidates who hope to represent the riding of North Island–Powell River in parliament after the upcoming federal election were on hand to field questions from the elders of our region Tuesday afternoon at the first of the election season’s all-candidates meetings. The Seniors’ Centre in Campbell River Common was abuzz with enthusiasm before the event got under way,
and that energy was sustained throughout the meeting. Those in attendance were obviously passionate about a broad range of topics, but they offered their questions to the panel with respect, listened appreciatively and thanked them for their responses with warm applause, whether they liked the answers they received or not. The candidates, too, were civil toward each other, and each acknowledged the good things said by the others while they proceeded in

She highlighted her business history – having owned a successful service station in the Lower Mainland for 15 years and having spent time on the BC Transit Board of Directors – and her history in administration as

of Canada, for two and a half years,” she said. She also spoke about taking care of her aging parents and how it helped her understand the concerns seniors within our society – an understanding she will bring to the position if elected in October. Rachel Blaney of the NDP introduced herself as a long-time Campbell Riverite, having lived here for 17 years now, and expressed her enthusiasm at the possibility of going to Ottawa to represent the community she loves and in which she has raised her family. As the executive director of the Immigrant Welcome Centre, Blaney said she has worked all over the region, across various sectors, to meet the needs of the community. She also highlighted her education – she holds a degree in First Nations Studies and a business administration certificate. “I really love to learn, and I love to share what I’ve learned,” she said. One of the main reasons Blaney is running, she said, is her passion for healthcare. “I’m really proud, as a Canadian, to be able to stand up and say we have a healthcare system that supports people,” she said. “Now, with the provinces having to cover 80 per cent and we’re going to see a bigger decrease in federal
transfers, I know a lot of people have talked to me about their concerns about what the future is going to look like in Canada,” she said, and she hears those concerns and will work to address them if elected. Conservative candidate Laura Smith highlighted her time in the forestry sector in the region and expressed her pride in having been a long-time volunteer member of Search and Rescue on the midnorth-Island. In 2008, she said, current sitting Conservative MP John Duncan “asked me to come work for him in Ottawa, and having had a lifelong interest in politics and the federal government, that was just too good an opportunity to pass up.” She said she “learned so much about how MPs can be effective advocates for their communities as well as effective legislators,” in her role on Duncan’s staff, “and how things get done – how the process works in that part of the world.” “Canada is a great country, and it’s great because generations of Canadians have made it so,” Smith said, adding that the policies of the Conservative Party of Canada are consistent with the values held by those generations of Canadians – “that we work hard and expect to enjoy the fruits of our labours, that we take responsibility for the people around us, and that we consider the impact of our actions on future generations.” Peter Schwarzhoff, the Liberal candidate, opened by sharing his background with Environment Canada.

“It’s actually my time w i t h E nv i r o n m e nt Canada that pushed me into politics,” he said, “because some choices were made there that I don’t understand and I don’t think were of benefit to the country. I am, in fact, one of those gagged scientists forbidden by Ottawa to speak to the media.” He touched on his time in the Canadian Armed Forces, as a Captain in the Air Force, and how that time in his life has informed his political activism in support of our veterans. “When I graduated in 1971, the world was my oyster,” Schwarzhoff said. “Really, anything I wanted to do was open to me, and I took advantage of it. And I would wish that for my children. “They’re 25 and 27 now and they do not have that opportunity.” He said he’s old enough to be nostalgic about Canada’s place in the world and his optimism that we could get back to that place under better leadership. “We used to feel that Canada was in a good place,” he said. “Not there, yet, but in a good place and heading for an even better one. And I feel we have lost that … I have a vision that we once shared as a nation and I just want a chance to get our Canada back.” The candidates went on to answer questions on various aspects of Canadian life – particularly in how they relate to the seniors within our society – from income splitting, to a national health strategy, to pension reform, to bill C-51 and privacy rights.

In Memory of
Ralph Hardy Holzer June 17, 1966September 27, 1995 TODAY I touched your face again and watched you for a while. I talked of things deep in my heart and wished I could make you smile. I rubbed your head and told you, I'm proud of you my son, for all the little things you did and the way you did each one. You show such courage daily and you teach me how to live, to make each moment count in life and to give all I can give. I know your time on earth was short, but it's how you lived each day, you made the most of what you had and always found a way, to touch the hearts around you, to love while you may. I wish with all my heart right now, the face I touched today, wasn't made of paper or neatly placed away. But I will put you on the shelf again for all the world to see, I'll talk to you tomorrow just like I do each day, And I'll tell you 'You're my hero" as I gently walk away. Love Mom, Dad, Dean and Dylan

responded to the crash scene along with the Tour de Rock medical team, where they located a Ford F-450 flat deck truck in the ditch. The lone occupant, a 36 year old man from Sayward, was located outside of the vehicle with critical injuries. Preliminary indications suggest he was ejected from the vehicle during the crash. BC Ambulance Service Paramedics attended and transported the man to the Campbell River Hospital, where he was later moved by Air Ambulance to a Victoria area hospital. He remains hospitalized at this time, in critical condition. An RCMP Collision Analyst/ Re-constructionist attended the scene, and completed a thorough investigation focussed on determining the cause of this crash. Preliminary findings indicate driver error may have precipitated this single vehicle crash. Additional factors will be examined as this investigation continues. The man’s next of kin were notified of this crash by local Sayward RCMP officers.
Sayward shortly after 5:30 p.m. Monday. The escort riders, a police officer from the Capital Regional District Integrated Road Safety Unit (CRD IRSU) and one from the RCMP Central Island Traffic Services Unit, were travelling on Sayward Road, heading to refuel their motorbikes. The escort riders
