High interest in all-candidates forum ALISTAIR TAYLOR CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The Tidemark Theatre was filled to overflowing for the all-candidates meeting put on by the Chamber of Commerce Thursday. The inability for later arrivals to get into the theatre – even the lobby was full – generated some frustra-

tion, one caller to the Campbell River Mirror suggesting a contingency plan for the overflow should have been prepared. The person felt that perhaps speakers could have been put into Spirit Square. Those who did get there early enough to get a seat in the theatre heard the four candidates give five minute opening speeches, answer

25 questions with one-minute answers and then close with fiveminute final remarks. The meeting was attended by all four candidates, none choosing to bow out from this one. Attending were NDP candidate Rachel Blaney, Green Party candidate Brenda Sayers, Liberal Party candidate Peter Schwarzhoff and Conservative

Party candidate Laura Smith. The evening was civil and organized, perhaps even a little tame, with the candidates rarely taking the available time to offer a rebuttal to any of the comments made on any question. “We’ve been doing this for a while now so we’re getting to know each

Island Health will charge for parking at the new Campbell River Hospital facility despite pleas from the public, various elected officials and the region’s own hospital board for it to be free. Just how much it will cost, who will be in charge of collecting it, and what that money will be spent on are yet to be determined. “Fees will be determined by Island Health Parking Services based on St. Joseph’s General Hospital and Nanaimo Regional General Hospital parking rates,” according to the recent announcement by Island Health. St. Joseph’s parking rates are $1.50 for one hour, $2.25 for two hours, $7 daily and $25 for a weekly permit. Nanaimo Regional’s rates are $2.25 for the first two hours, $1.25 per hour thereafter with a weekly permit costing $26.75. “Island Health recognizes that pay parking in hospitals is not popular,” says Dan Maclennan of Island Health Communications, “however pay parking is standard practice in the vast majority of care facilities in urban areas.” Unpopular might be an understatement. Letters have been flowing in to Island Health and the Ministry of Health condemning the concept of pay parking for months.

CHECK REALTY

Can you trust the NDP? NDP Leader Thomas Mulcair promises that he will not bring back the long-gun registry in a future NDP federal government. 3x7 Is he telling the truth? His own “policy backgrounder” says he would, “… develop a more effective, better managed system of firearms registration.” “Thomas Mulcair Policy Backgrounder,” page 3

of the forum has been uploaded to the version of this story on our website (www.campbellrivermirror.com). If you have two hours to sit and listen (or a portion thereof) you will hear the whole forum as it occurred. It kicks off with an intro by each candidate beginning with Green Party candidate Brenda Sayers. Meanwhile, here are the questions in the order they answer them: CANDIDATE QUESTIONS: • How do you feel aquaculture will be part of food production in the future? • Does your Party support the Canada Post decision to go to super boxes? • If elected, what will be the economic priorities for you and your government? List the three most pressing

issues facing the economy that your government will address? • What will you and your Party do to protect the Canadian Coast line? • What will you and your Party do about the Marijuana laws in Canada? • What will you and your Party do to reduce the carbon footprint? • What is your Party’s stance on the health of our Canadian Pension Plan and do you plan any changes? • What will your Party do to support Health care? • What will your Party do to address affordable Child Care? • What is your Party’s

Before the current election campaign started, Mulcair also said, “I think that it is possible to provide the police with the tools to better protect the public and themselves by making sure they’re able to follow every gun ... That’s our bottom line.” Toronto Sun, July 25th

If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, maybe it’s a duck? Mulcair ordered all NDP MP’s to oppose scrapping the useless gun registry in 2012. Mulcair severely sanctioned MPs who dared vote for their constituents and against the NDP party line. The long-gun registry cost Canadians over $2 billion and didn’t save a single life. Mulcair still pushes such expensive useless schemes. Mulcair’s NDP also voted against every other effort by the Conservative government to simplify our overly complex and ineffective gun regulations. Should British Columbians trust Mulcair’s NDP? Mulcair must maintain his base in Montreal and Toronto to retain power; they are the people who favour even more and stricter gun controls. Would the policies of a Mulcair government reflect BC or Quebec?

CAMPBELL RIVER RIVER MIRROR MIRROR || 33 WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 14, 2015 | CAMPBELL

www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com

Part I (Part II runs Friday or visit www. campbellrivermirror. com for a complete recording of all of the questions and answers). n How do you feel aquaculture will be part of food production in the future? Rachel Blaney (NDP): Thank you for the question. You know I’ve travelled around the riding and there’s a lot of innovative and amazing things happening with aquaculture. Food security is going to be huge issue. We know what is happening with climate change, so, yes, we see it as definitely part of food production in the future. Research has been started already in Canada and the federal government has paid into amazing projects around closed containment. I know I was just up in Namgis and talking about what they’re doing and some of their innovative ideas around closed containment as a long term strategy. We know that we have to work hard with industry and I’m looking forward to doing so. Thank you. Brenda Sayers (Green party): We support the recommendation of the Cohen Commission for a moratorium on no new pen fish farms. We believe they must be moved out of the water. DFO has had sufficient funding to determine the effects of stocks and habitats. Until then we operate on a precautionary principle. If there is a chance that harm is being done by the using antibiotics, they must be

moved out of the water. We support the shellfish aquaculture because of the minimal impact on the system. And we know that climate change has a lot to with have a negative serious effect on the ecosystem. Thank you. Peter Schwarzhoff (Liberal Party): Shellfish is included under aquaculture and that’s an industry we support although I’m very much worried about ocean acidification caused by climate change. But the problem we’re talking with salmon farming we have high hopes for the Kuterra closed containment we really hope that works but it will never be able to provide the protein that’s needed by the world. The demand for salmon is huge. Now we also have said we will adopt the recommendations of the Cohen C ommission w hich specifically state that we need to prove that open net farming is safe for wild stocks by 2020 or we need to be out of the water. DFO responded to that challenge unfortunate because they lost their government science capacity by hiring industry to do the work. Now that industry seems to be showing that it’s safe but nobody trusts them because it’s done by industry. We will refund DFO to make sure they can do that work. We’ve got $40 million for a budget to make sure DFO tells us it’s going to be safe and we can trust DFO. Laura Smith (Conservative Party): Yes, food security is an issue and

there’s a huge and growing demand for food in the world particularly high protein food and aquaculture products have a very efficient ratio of protein to protein out so it’s a very important way to meet this growing demand and we have a great ability to do our part for filling that need. But I would point out that with closed containment our government has made some investments in the research but the jury’s still out. We’re open to that but if we’re looking for that to create jobs in the North Island, if you can grow salmon on the land you’re going to be growing it in Vancouver not here. So when it comes to jobs, we want to make sure we’re taking maximum availability of our great workers and resources. Thank-you. n If elected, what will be the economic priorities for you and your government? List the three most pressing issues facing the economy that your government will address? Schwarzhoff: So, that’s really the core of our platform. It’s all how do we get the economy growing because there

hasn’t been sufficient growth in 10 years. Our wages have stagnated while our cost of living has gone up so we have a $60 billion reconstruction plan to kick start the economy and get it growing. We believe that this is the way to do it. If the economy grows then we have the money to do the other things that we need. We also plan to tax income above $200,000 so that we can give a tax break to those in the middle class. And those people in the middle class will spend that money in the communities and the communities will be stronger for it rather than put the money in at the top and hope it trickles down, we’ll put it in the middle and make it work. And that will let us do the other things we know we want to do but are getting very, very expensive and I’m thinking health care. Health care is getting very expensive and we have a plan to be able to fund it and ensure it is sustainable public health care. Smith: Yeah, number one, we want to keep taxes low for everybody so that businesses can be

Powell River more competitive locally and globally and that people have more money in their pockets to spend on goods and services. We want to continue to develop trade opportunities. This gives us a great advantage internationally having privileged access to so many markets. And we also need responsible fiscal management and that means not going into deficit. And when we talk making these infrastructure investments, we’ve tripled infrastructure and according to C.D. Howe Institute, the Liberal proposal will not actually kickstart anything because when you actually look at what we’re already offering it’s a fairly small incremental amount. So, we think responsible fiscal management keeps us nimble and enables us to

Blaney: So for us, we think the important issues are jobs. We want to make sure that we’re investing in secondary manufacturing so we’re going to have tax credits to support machinery purchases and innovation. We know that we have a resource economy in this community. It’s diversifying it and supporting it. Right now we’re seeing all our raw logs shipped away. We need to be doing something different. We also want to make sure that we’re sure that we’re investing in green jobs. Our plan is to tax some of those huge corporations that are not paying their fair share (inaudible). And the last thing is education and apprenticeships. Our plan is to invest so that young people can get to school, support them through grants, support them through interest relief on their loans and also when we build infrastructure making sure we have a plan to give young people a chance to get their apprenticeships

so that they can move forward with their own careers. Thank-you. Sayers: All three answers are related to climate change. We will establish a Canadian Sustainable Generation Fund that will invest in skills, training, education, energy efficiency, renewables and emergent technologies. Number two, we will create an infrastructure fund using one percent of the GST to address the $165 billion deficit in the municipal infrastructure that will create jobs. Number three, we will invest in First Nations and youth job plans to do the work in renewables, energy conservation and habitat restoration that needs to be done. We will also invest in local government, small business and local food economies to ensure jobs are available close to home. We will invest one billion dollars a year in this initiative. n What will your Party do to support Health care? Schwarzhoff: In one minute? Folks, we’re not only planning to

put money into it, we’re actually planning to transform it. Ten years ago we set out to do it. As you know, health care is focused on hospitals and physicians that work there, a better health care system, by far, is one that will work to keep you healthy or keep you in your home and out of hospital…(inaudible)… but then there may be some level of care that can’t be met in the home we also have a significant plan around increasing seniors facilities for the next s of care and we’re putting up to $20 billion in a pot of money we’re calling social infrastructure which would

include that we also have a medicare plan, a bulk buying plan as well as transforming the way we deal with prescription drugs in Canada and in general the whole goal is not only to ensure that we remain a public universal health care system but one that works better for all of us into the future and remains table. Smith: The federal government’s primary role in health care is as a funder. The policy is a provincial matter. What we’ve done is we have increased funding. In spite of what you might hear in the media, we’ve increased funding six per cent per year, every year,

www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com

8 Vote North Island-Powell River compounding. At that rate, the amount that you pay doubles every 12 years. Obviously that’s not sustainable forever so we have a plan to put those funding increases on a sustainable footing so starting 2017/18, it will be increasing at no less than three per cent but if the GDP grows by more than that it will be increased to that level growth. We think this

is a very good plan. We need it to be sustainable. We are increasing funding by more than the provinces are so we think that’s working. And we do a lot of other health things as far as research investment and everything else. Thank you. Blaney: The provinces and territories are paying 80 per cent of the costs of health care right now.

We’re very concerned about that because we’re seeing privatization increase. The NDP believes that that’s at our core health care should be public and that’s something we’re willing to fight for it. We want to invest in having doctors coming into more remote communities. We also want to include nurses, nurse practitioners and health professionals. We know that we need them here. We also are going to invest in home care so that people can stay in their homes longer. That is so important for care. We also are committed to a pharmacare plan and making sure we do more

bulk buying in Canada so that we can see those costs go down dramatically. It’s a huge concern. I’ve talked to seniors who talk about January, February, March not buying enough food, not paying for heat because they have to pay for their medication. That’s not okay in Canada and we’re going to work together with the provinces to make that better. Sayers: The Green Party of Canada will work to renegotiate the national health accord with provinces and territories and ensure universal and equal access. Our plan will also include dental care to people

up to the age of 18. We will also implement a national mental health strategy, a national seniors strategy that will include support for aging in place to help people who want to keep their parents at home longer and offer them that support and a national dementia program. It’s interesting to note for those of you who are worried about our health care heading towards privatization, that signing and pending trade agreements threaten this as they open our health care and other public services to privatization such as the trades and services agreement.

Increased need for literacy tutors MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

“Nearly half of all British C olumbians struggle with literacy in some form,” says Sherry Bujold, adult literacy & Youth ESL program coordinator with the Campbell River Literacy Association. “Whether that’s reading, writing, math, not being able to read a bus schedule or street signs, and they come here, because we can help them with that.” But they need help to be able to continue to help with that. The centre has seen a significant increase in people who need their services over the past few years, and they need volunteers to keep up with that demand. “Last year we had over 100 learners that we helped,” Bujold says, “and this year it’ll be much the same. We’re already at, I think, 45, and we’re just in October.” Which is why the centre is launching another round of tutor training beginning at the end of the month. For three evenings, beginning Oct. 29, continuing Nov. 3 and Nov. 5, from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. volunteers are invited to come to the training sessions to learn what being a volunteer tutor is all about. “It’s a really good training,” Bujold says. “It really lets them know everything they’re going to need to know.” It also sets people at ease, she says, and gets them through the, “I don’t know if I can do this,” phase of volunteering. And don’t think they’re just looking for retired English teachers. Volunteers don’t even need to have any background in education or tutoring to be able to help out. “I always say it’s a willingness to help somebody become better in life,” Bujold says. “We always appreciate retired teachers,” she laughs, “but we have people

from all different walks of life who want to help. That’s all it takes. That’s what we want. A willingness to help.” Retired local lawyer Sid Shook, for example volunteers as a tutor at the centre and says he gets as much out of it as those he helps. When he retired a few years ago, he was looking for something to do that was interesting for him but would also give back to the community in some way.

“The students are all really eager,” he says. “It’s a lot of fun for me. I really enjoy it. I’ve actually told a few of my friends about it, and now they’re tutoring and they really enjoy it, too.” Bujold says there’s no required number of hours or mandatory availability times for tutors, either. “We work with however people want to do it,” she says. “If you can do one day a week, then I find a learner who also

only wants to come one day a week. We’ll make it happen, however it needs to happen. If you can do more, that’s great too.” For more information on the Literacy Association or on how to get involved, give them a call at 250-923-1275. Contact Bujold directly by email at sherry@literacyforall.ca for information on the adult or youth ESL programs or to get into the training to become a tutor.

MIKE MIKE DAVIES DAVIES

MARNIE MARNIE NEAVES NEAVES

There was a flurry of excitement in the B.C. legislature last week, as Delta South independent MLA Vicki Huntington released documents suggesting that a multinational manufacturing company continued to buy up B.C. farms for carbon offsets after they said last June they would stop. False alarm, as it turns out. Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick clarified that three more farms in the Peace and Cariboo region had indeed been bought, but the company was merely following legal advice to close deals on farms that it had already agreed to purchase. The company, British-based cleaning product and pharmaceutical maker Reckitt Benckiser (RB) confirmed this. A company official reiterated that its program to buy farms and replant them with trees is suspended. By the time the B.C. government became aware of this global public relations scheme, thanks to the work of NDP MLA Lana Popham and others, about 10,000 hectares of farmland was already planted with seedlings. RB initially said they

MICHELLE MICHELLE HUELLER HUELLER

were buying up abandoned and unproductive farms, but local government officials disputed that. RB soon realized that undermining already precarious farming communities was going to provide the opposite of the green publicity they sought, at least in B.C. The company told me it is now looking to switch its carbon offset program to replanting forest areas depleted by pine beetle and fire. I’ll believe that when I see it, but on the face of it, this sounds almost as questionable as converting farmland back to forests. Pine forests need fire to regenerate, so fires have been part of the regeneration of the ecosystem since the retreat of the last Ice Age. Beetle-kill areas are already coming back, and they were never completely denuded in any case, so the notion of manual planting these areas seems

impractical. Most are now criss-crossed with deadfall and all but impassible. Another situation that received little public attention was a report issued late this summer by the B.C. Forest Practices Board about forest stewB.C. ardship plans. The board reviewed 43 stewardship plans from all regions of B.C., prepared as required under provincial law by forest tenure holders on Crown land. They are supposed to deal with things like where roads go and how streams are protected. This is the management system put in place in 2003, when the B.C. Liberal government changed its approach to forest management. Gone was the NDP’s infamous seven-volume “Forest Practices Code,” which attempted to micromanage every detail of a timber licence, right down to inspecting for litter left at a logging site. In came “results-based” for-

Seeing the forest and the trees VIEWS

Anyone who has driven on B.C. roads for any length of time has been there — a vehicle races past you at speeds well above the posted limit and then immediately cuts you off with a dangerous lane change. Then there are the drivers who’ll race through a stale yellow light, rather than wait two minutes for the next green, or the ones who jump the green to get in a left turn before oncoming traffic has a chance to move. There is no shortage of aggressive drivers on our roads. As much as we all know it’s illegal and incredibly dangerous, it’s behaviour we’ve all come to expect and, to some degree, accept. We might sigh, and ease our foot off the accelerator a little bit, just to give the aggressor a chance to We say: Many move a bit farther along accidents in the and minimize our own province could be risk of getting caught up in any carnage they might avoided generate. But it’s so common, it barely raises an eyebrow. What is still a little surprising, though, (at least it should be) is the percentage of vehicles that go blasting by with a green ’N’ affixed to the back window or bumper. The ’N’ stands, of course, for new (the sticker’s colour is symbolic in its own right). That’s new as in, inexperienced, unpractised, unskilled, amateur. Despite that lack of experience, there’s a blind confidence and sense of indestructibility that seems to come with being young. Granted, not every new driver is a young driver, but it’s a fair assumption that the vast majority aren’t too far removed from their 16th birthday. Regardless, on roads as busy as the ones British Columbians drive every day — roads that handle everything from cyclists to semis — there is a whole lot going on for even the most experienced driver to take in. It’s too soon to know what led to the fatal Oct. 7 crash in Surrey that killed a young man as he sat waiting for a bus. We do know the vehicle left the road, jumped the curb and pinned the 22-year-old to the bus bench. And we know the vehicle had a green ’N’ in its back window. Its driver, just 17. Regardless of whether the cause was speed, distraction, road conditions, vehicle malfunction or some combination — unless it was a medical emergency, we’re also pretty certain that it could have been avoided. Whether it’s slowing down, paying closer attention or ensuring a vehicle is properly maintained, we all have a responsibility to ensure that our actions don’t put others in harm’s way. Almost immediately after the Surrey crash, the victim’s family spoke publicly, urging all drivers — not just new ones — to slow down just a little and to pay closer attention to everything that is going on around them. Under the circumstances, it’s not a lot to ask.

est management, where licence holders had to produce a plan showing stream protection and other values. The Forest Practices Board has found these plans often aren’t good for much, although results are generally good when they follow up with on-the-ground audits of actual timber harvest areas. The investigation found that many of the plans cover “vast and overlapping areas of the province, and were written using legal language that makes them very difficult for public understanding or review.” Little has changed since a similar finding in 2006. During that time, the forests ministry was turned into Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, with greatly increased responsibility over wildlife, mining, gas drilling and so on. Columbia River-Revelstoke MLA Norm Macdonald, who traveled the province as NDP forests critic in recent years, says the problem now is there just aren’t enough people on the ground to assess what’s going on in our huge expanse of Crown land. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

Candidates outline their strengths In addition to the candidates’ answers to the questions posed to them at Thursday’s all-candidates forum at the Tidemark Theatre, the Mirror is also providing the candidates space to address three separate questions this week to help voters get to know them better.

Today we asked the candidates “What would be your strengths as a Member of Parliament?” Their answer are reprinted below. Note: Green Party candidate Brenda Sayers has not responded to our invitation to participate.

Vote North Island-

n Rachel Blaney, NDP: I’m proud to be the NDP candidate for North Island – Powell River. I was elected last November by over 700 local NDP members. Since then I have been working hard: speaking with people, listening to their concerns and building strong relationships throughout the riding. My husband, Darren and I have two teenaged sons who are currently in school here in Campbell River. My stepdaughter recently

gave us a beautiful grandchild. I have lived in Campbell River for almost 20 years and have worked, most recently, as the Executive Director at the Immigrant Welcome Centre and prior to that, was the Employment Officer in Homalco. My educational background includes a B.A. in First Nation Studies, and my family is from Stellat’en First Nation, near Fraser Lake, BC. My greatest strengths are my

high work ethic and my ability to listen to people. I believe in collaboration. I know that the job of MP for this riding will be a challenging one, but I know that I am up for the task of connecting with and working diligently for everyone in this riding. People here have felt neglected for a very long time and I am committed to building a new relationship between your elected MP and the citizens of North Island – Powell River.

n Laura Smith, Conservative Party: “My greatest strength as an MP would be my experience, both here at home and in Ottawa. I have lived and worked in many corners of the riding, and I understand the particular challenges and opportunities of life in Coastal

communities. After a 14 year career in forestry, I also understand the importance of balancing environmental and community sustainability, and our pressing need to develop a strong, stable local economy. Importantly, I also have direct, on-the-job experience

having spent six years working in Ottawa for MP John Duncan. I have been helping to advocate for our communities for years; I understand the job and I know how the system works. I know how to get things done and I can hit the ground running in Ottawa.”

n Peter Schwarzhoff, Liberal Party: I was born in Ocean Falls, but grew up in Campbell River in a pulp mill family. I know this region very well. From the early days of the mill to the transition we are in now. I enjoyed a career in public service – in the Air Force and Environment Canada as a meteorologist and later as a manager of environmental research. I am one of those scientists who was muzzled by the Harper government and I that needs to change. Good policy requires good science, and trust of policy requires transparency. You and I need to know that we can trust government to protect our envi-

ronment while ensuring our nation’s prosperity. My first-hand experience will help restore the trust that has been lost in the environmental assessment process. Important to me are the men and women who have served in uniform. My grandfather, also named Peter Schwarzhoff, saw action in the great battles of WWI. My father served in WWII. I served in Germany at the very end of the Cold War. Our treatment of our veterans is disgraceful. I am proud that my party will restore and improve benefits to meet our sacred obligation to our vets.

This election is about change that restores public trust in the idea that government acts for all Canadians. Justin Trudeau has assembled the most competent, best prepared cast of Cabinet ready players among all the parties and I believe I have the qualifications to make that team. Be assured I will make it my mission to strongly and faithfully represent your interests to government rather than simply serving as a government messenger back to you. By working for you, I too commit to helping restore your trust in government.

Parking: Decision to charge ‘unacceptable’ From Pg. 1

Mayor Michael Barry of Alert Bay’s letter says, “There are already prohibitive costs to North Islanders travelling for medical care,” and goes on to reference ferry cost and fuel for travel, meals and often accommodation requirements for many who travel to Campbell River for care. “Please do not exacerbate the financial burden of North Island citizens who already face barriers to medical care.” Similarly, letters from our region’s MLA have had seemingly no effect. “There is already stress when an individual or a family member is in hospital; knowing there will be a cost to access that health care will add further stress,” wrote Claire Trevena, MLA for the North Island in support of parking being free at the new facility. “Further, people who are on low or even moderate income simply will find the cost of paying for parking day after day, to visit and support friends or family, untenable.” The Comox Strathcona

Regional Hospital District’s board of directors denounced the notion of pay parking at the Campbell River facility as recently as their Sept. 17 meeting, where they carried a motion to write a letter of support to Island Health, “to request that all on-site parking at our new hospitals sites be provided ‘free of charge’ to patients and family members, thereby allowing patients and visitors throughout our very large geographic service area to have easy and open access to our hospitals and would enhance positive health outcomes for the people of our service area.” Lois and Ed Jarvis, cofounders of Citizens for Quality Healthcare say the decision by Island Health is just unacceptable. “The region being served by this hospital is enormous,” Lois says, “and people are just trying to make ends meet these days. To expect all these people from all these little islands and all the First Nations villages and everything, to come all the way down

here for their healthcare needs, and then expect them to pay for parking after all that, I think, is unreasonable. “This isn’t Vancouver General we’re talking about, or Children’s Hospital, or the Royal Jubilee in Victoria,” Lois says. “Parking is really at a premium around those hospitals, so I can see why they’d need pay parking at those. But here? It’s just ridiculous.” Island Heath says paid parking is meant to generate revenue to maintain and repair the parking facilities. “Parking revenues pay for services such as snow removal and de-icing, painting, repaving, pothole repairs, parkade repairs, equipment,

lighting costs, security and future parking supply,” Maclennan says. “Parking fees also offset environmental costs such as catch basin and oil interceptor cleaning,” he says, adding that without pay parking, these costs would have to come from Island Health’s global budget, which includes the health care services and programs. “When you consider the amount of money that this hospital gets from the community and from taxes, it just shouldn’t be necessary,” Lois says. “Look at the amount of money we pay in hospital taxes,” Lois says. “Then, between the Auxiliary and the (Campbell River

individuals and service clubs. And she says that Campbell River city council needs to “show some leadership on this.” She points to the municipality of Delta as an example of a municipality taking the bull by the horns and saying “no” to pay parking at hospitals. In 2004, when there was a new hospital being built in Delta, the mayor and council went so far as to draft a bylaw stating that parking at hospitals within their municipal borders must be provided free of charge. That bylaw was

Enrich Someone’s Life

3x4 CR Literacy

Enrich the life of an adult learner, become a tutor. The experience will change your life! Unfortunately, one in four British Columbians cannot read this sentence. More than half of working age people in BC struggle with reading or writing, which makes it difficult for them to be a part of our changing economy. Be a part of the solution! The CR Literacy Association has students who need volunteer tutors.

Volunteer tutors work one-on-one with adults and youth wanting to improve their English and Math skills. Everyone is welcome! More tutors are needed for these programs: Adult Literacy tutors work with learners whose skills in reading, writing, and math are at a low level. The above programs are free of charge, thanks to funding from the Government of Canada and the Province of British Columbia. Training for volunteer tutors will be held October 29th, November 3rd, 5th and 10th from 5:30pm until 8:30pm at Robron Centre. If you are interested in becoming a tutor for either program, phone 250 923 1275 or email Jenn Bergen at info@literacyforall.ca for more information.

and was approved by the ministry of Transportation, but was never enacted, because Fraser Health (who was building the hospital) relented to the public’s wishes and made parking free at the facility. The bylaw was adopted, however, in 2010, when the prospect of implementing paid parking again reared its head, and is now in place and being enforced. More than anything else, the Jarvis’ are worried about people’s healthcare suffering because of the additional financial burden. “What about the pensioners?” Lois asks, rhetorically. “One might be in the hospital for months, and they need their spouse or friend or someone to visit. If people can’t afford to go there and visit them, that’s really going to be harmful for their health. “And children need their parents there, you know?” Ed has seen this first hand. When his mother went into care, his father visited her every day and sat by her bedside for eight hours a day. It was important. It improved her quality of life while she was there. “There’s no way he would have been able to do that if it was pay parking,” Ed says. “It just couldn’t have happened. And that would have been a shame.” So what’s next in the battle for free parking at healthcare facilities, now that Island Health has made their announcement that they will be charging for parking at the new facility? “Well, it’s not open yet,” Lois smiles. “We’ve still got a couple of years to fight.”

Strathcona dam campground to close for 11 days

C Hydro will be making system improvements to one of the two transmission lines that lead to Gold River and eventually North Vancouver Island. The work includes large vehicles carrying long poles and some helicopter work, with the nearby Strathcona Dam Campground to be used as the staging area.

The campground will be closed for public safety from Oct. 19-29. “Our crews will be removing eight transmission line structures with new struct spokesperson Stephen Watson. “Two of those structures are very challenging to access and the use of a helicopter will be an effective way to remove the existing structures and bring in the new

ones. “The large field within the campground will be the area where the poles will be stored. At times the helicopter will be moving back and forth and over the campsite, so for public safety, we need to close it down temporarily.” The 138,000 volt transmission line will be de-energised during the work with the other

transmission line in full service to provide electricity to North Island BC Hydro customers. “The work was nicely timed for the shoulder recreation season and we apologise for any inconvenience this may cause,” says Watson. BC Hydro’s Strathcona Dam campground offers free, year-round camping and is accessed off Highway 28.

GET READY TO SHAKEOUT! Thursday, October 15, 2015 @ 10:15 a.m.

ARE YOU READY? This year, almost 13,000 people across the Strathcona Regional District will practice what to do if a large earthquake hits the west coast of Vancouver Island: Drop, Cover and Hold On! WHY PARTICIPATE? Earthquake hazards are a very real part of life for everyone in British Columbia. Southwestern B.C. has had 243 earthquakes in the past 30 days, with the largest registering a magnitude 5.8.

We have all seen the devastation that can happen from a major earthquake. In 2011, a 6.3 magnitude earthquake killed 185 people and devastated the city of Christchurch, New Zealand. It happened there, and it can happen here, too.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE AND PREPARE:

water, food, flashlights, crank radios, medication, fuel everything you might need to manage on your own for at least 72 hours and up to two weeks after a major disaster. That is how long it may take for help to come!

The Great BC ShakeOut is an opportunity for us all to practice how to be safer during a big earthquake. Individuals, businesses, schools, community groups and organizations can all participate: · On October 15, 10:15 a.m. DROP to the ground. Take COVER under a table or desk, and HOLD ON to it as if a major earthquake is happening. Stay down for at least 60 seconds and think about how you can immediately protect yourself during a major earthquake. · Build your GRAB AND GO KIT. Make sure you have the supplies you will need in case of an emergency. That means

· Create a personal, family or business EMERGENCY PLAN. Think about safe exits from your home, office, school or neighbourhood. Determine a meeting place for your family// friends. Identify contact persons who are close-by and outof-town. Know the risks in your region. Make sure you have what you need for yourself and your pets.

DON’T WAIT UNTIL IT’S TOO LATE! Register now at www.shakeoutbc/register/

BE PREPARED The Strathcona Regional District has tools to help you get prepared.

Turkey give-away a hit

Happy turkey winners clutch their tasty prizes.

Twenty-five happy winners gathered in front of Willow Point Discovery Foods Wednesday evening. The skies were grey, but smiles were sunny as they accepted their winnings. Coordinated by the Willow Point BIA this was a very successful Turkey Give Away

contest. During the contest, boxes were placed in participating businesses and ballots were run in the Campbell River Mirror. Board members, Kim MacDonald of VI Insurance Centres, Judy Dowdell of Willow Point Dollar Store and Sandra Allen of Investors Group

were on hand as Discovery Foods Brent Nicholas (also a WP BIA member) distributed turkeys to the lucky winners. “When we collected all the ballots we had huge garbage bag full! So happy to have such a great response for our BIA merchants,” Nicholas said.

Chas Maria book sale helps members fight the fight against cancer

Chas Maria Chapter #76, Order of the Eastern Star are again holding their By-Annual Book Sale this coming Saturday. It will be held in Unit 1325 in Tyee Plaza – between Banners Restaurant and the old Super Value store. They are often asked what the book sales are for. Well, the main project of Eastern Star throughout the province is focussed on cancer and thousand of dollars are raised for research, free cancer dressings, equipment, medical books, and scholarships for oncology doctors. In Campbell River, they support the Cancer Unit and Cancer Library. When possible they purchase equipment for the unit and donate money to the library to purchase books etc., which can be used by doctors, patients and their families. All types of cancer dressings are made by Chas Maria members and these are available free to any cancer patient from our Health Unit. Throughout the province the cost of the materials alone for these dressings runs into thousands of dollars a year and Chas Maria volunteer members give thousands of hours to make them. They will accept any books (no Reader’s Digest, encyclopedias or magazines) and you can either phone Margaret at 250-923-1760 to arrange for a pick up or drop them off at the sale location between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday or bring them to the sale on the 17th. They are very grateful for the support we receive every time they hold their fund raising sale so that they can give back to their community.

Dr. Tassos Irinakis Gum Recession? So What? Gum recession is a very common finding in most of us. There are some facts though that you may not be aware of: 1. Gum recession is usually accompanied by bone loss. Basically you are losing support around your teeth but you only perceive it as “gum recession”. Continuing bone loss can lead to tooth loss 2. Risks/Symptoms can be Tooth Sensitivity, Root Decay, Erosion, Horrible Esthetics, Food Trapping and even eventual tooth loss. 3. In addition, your roots are not covered by white enamel. Thus roots are quite soft and “defenseless” when recession has taken place in our mouths. Some times even regular brushing can further damage our roots and deteriorate their prognosis, simply because our roots cannot “resist” the forces applied by the tooth brush bristles. What can we do? Although in almost every case, we cannot regenerate your bone back, we can regenerate your gums and improve the prognosis of your tooth with a gum graft.

A Gum Graft: 1. Can reduce/resist further recession and bone loss, thus improving the long term prognosis and function of your tooth. 2. Can actually cover the part of your root that is exposed (recession) and protect the tooth from sensitivity & decay. 3. An additional welcome benefit from root coverage gum grafting, is that the esthetics are greatly enhanced and can lead to a truly engaging smile. You will look younger and more beautiful! Whether you consider a gum graft for esthetics or whether you need it to improve your dental health, it may be worth having a consultation with your dentist to see if this procedure can benefit you in terms of Smiling, Eating, Comfort and Dental Health Improvement. A Periodontist would be the specialist that can offer you your gum grafting options and evaluate your overall periodontal health. For more expert advice visit courtenaydental.ca Please call 250-338.5011 to schedule your consultation with Dr. Irinakis.

eady, Willing and More Than Able will be celebrating community inclusiveness this Friday, Oct. 16, at the Rivercity Stage (1080 Hemlock St.). Greg Hill, executive director of the Campbell River Association for Community Living (CRADACL), hopes this will become an annual celebration during Community Living Month. “Each year we take a little different tack on how we celebrate Community Living Month,” Hill says. “We used to have a salmon barbecue at Spirit Square, but, you know, a salmon barbecue in October, outside, with hurricanes coming….” The weather being uncooperative this time of year wasn’t the only reason they changed the celebration and moved it inside. “We didn’t really get a chance to celebrate ability (at the barbecues),” Hill says. “Sure, we had the band Inclusion playing under the tents, but while people were surely appreciating the salmon and it was an opportunity to give back, it just didn’t really give opportunity to show what we do.” What they do, Hill says, is bring in more than $12 million in economic benefit to the community as “probably the community’s fourth largest employer,”

directly affecting over 600 families, serving “from zero to 100. We have infant programs right through to seniors housing.” Mayor Andy Adams issued a proclamation saying that, once again, October is officially being recognized as Community Living Month, to celebrate “the achievements of people with developmental abilities, including independent living, workplace accomplishments and community and social participation,” and to recognize “the hard work of individuals, families and community members to create inclusive communities and opportunities for all British Columbians.” At Friday’s inaugural Ready, Willing and More Than Able event, they’ll be showing off the unique abilities of some of the people they serve with those programs, and inviting the community to celebrate right along with them. “We will have folks

showing off their talent,” Hill says simply. “They will show us their musical abilities, they will show us their entrepreneurial skill, they will show us their artistic and creative ability.” From violin players to piano players to spoken word performances of “philosophical waxings,” the event will be an extravaganza, Hill says. “We recognize differences,” Hill says. “We all have our challenges, and we can recognize those challenges and differences, but we’d rather celebrate our similarities. We’d rather celebrate ability.” For Kenneth Cooper, the local musician who will be emceeing the event, it’s a chance to reflect. “It’s an opportunity to focus on the reason that you have a particular set of values. It’s a re-energizing. One of the things the month does – and this event is like a laser for that – is it provides us an opportunity for reflection, and then out of that comes action.”

Before and after the show – which, according to Cooper, “will be probably a tad over an hour” – there will be mingling, food and drink in the lobby with the performers and other guests. “When people have abilities, what they needs is a vehicle to demonstrate that, to practice that. So that’s what this is. It’s a showcase, in a sense,” Cooper says. “One of the things I like about this is that, in a way, we’re doing a flip on the notion of inclusion,” Cooper says. “CRADACL is all about inclusion, and now they’re saying, ‘we want to include the community in our celebration.’” Doors open at 6:30 p.m. for mingling and refreshments, with the show to follow at 7. It’s a “come one, come all” event. Just show up ready to enjoy yourself and celebrate what it means to be a community that cares about inclusiveness.

AMPBELLTON NEIGHBOURHOOD ASSOCIATION

CAMPBELLTON

CNA party gives thanks for garden success By John Twigg, Secretary, Campbellton Neighbourhood Association

Despite very blustery winds about 50 people turned out Friday (Oct. 9) to help the Campbellton Neighbourhood Association give thanks to the donors, sponsors and activists who made the new Campbellton Community Garden a great success. Though the weather forecasts were for heavy rain the organizers and participants were blessed to catch several hours of dryness that even offered a few patches of blue sky, a nice symbol of how things worked out so well for the garden. The garden, located in a formerlyvacant city-owned park on 15th Avenue near Petersen Road, was only conceived late last year, pitched to the City early this year, approved in April, built hastily in May and first planted in June - a late start that nonetheless still enabled the production of some decent crops as the visitors on Friday afternoon were able to witness, touch and even sample. Attendees included Mayor Andy Adams, Councillors Ron Kerr, Colleen Evans and Larry Samson, and many of the individuals and company representatives who donated time, money, labour and materials to make possible the initial construction of 22 beds; their names were recognized for posterity on a new sign made for the occasion. There is room for another 20+ beds to be added when

resources permit. CNA director Ross Sharp, who did much of the garden project planning and stick-handled it through City Hall, welcomed visitors on behalf of CNA chair Brian Shaw, who had to depart due to illness but still managed to put up his large tent for the event as well as provide the barbecue that cooked free hamburgers for the guests; they also enjoyed several delicious potluck contributions and beverages. A large cake made for the occasion was cut by Ann Hazlett, one of the most active local-resident gardeners and a co-producer of two videos being made about how the innovative garden project can be seen as a pioneering step towards reducing the area's heavy dependance on foods produced elsewhere and from off of Vancouver Island.

» Insurance

The companies I work with insist that I hold a valid life, accident & sickness license which requires specific courses and exams, and mandatory continuing education to keep that license in force – and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Unfortunately there are currently loop-holes in BC’s Darlene Garat insurance regulations that allow Financial Advisor some companies to use unlicensed salespeople. These typically include the insurance you purchase from mortgage brokers, lenders, car dealerships, and the stuff solicited over the phone. No licensing, looser regulations, and little or no knowledge of product & strategy. When you don’t get accredited advice you run the risk of paying into a policy for years, perhaps decades, only to end up being denied the benefit (death, disability or critical illness pay outs) because the fine print wasn’t explained to you. Always have your life insurance agent provide proof of proper licensing in BC (and Alberta if you are currently filing taxes there).

What is the Campbell River Community Foundation and how does this affect me? The Campbell River Community Foundation (CRCF) provides an opportunity for those who want to help their community. Donors have confidence that their charitable gifts will be well managed and well used.

Christa Fernau

Stewart Carstairs

How does it work? The CRCF manages a permanent set of funds, or an endowment, made up of all the donations received. Income earned on this money is distributed as grants to local charitable organizations.

High preformance nutrients encourage healthy, vigourous root systems to support strong, stress resistant plants that can produce amazing yields. However, too much watering can cause diseases and encourage pests, hindering growth. Letting your roots dry too much reduces photosynthesis and causes nutritional deficiencies. Pay attention to your plants and soil and mix your nutrients in a clean environment, and if you have any questions regarding good watering habits, please drop by any time!

Hygro Gardening Supplies Inc. 1791 Tamarac Street Campbell River 250-286-0424

The CRCF keeps all the charitable donations within Campbell River in a manner that is responsive to emerging and changing community needs. CRCF can accept gifts in almost any form, including cash, land, investments, artwork and insurance. Donations can be made as a one-time gift, as part of a monthly or annual donation plan or through your Will.

I know I should feel thankful, but I just don’t. Is there something wrong with me? It’s pretty normal to be in a funk sometimes, when nothing feels right. On those Frances Ferguson, M.Ed. days, it can be hard to find Registered Clinical things to be thankful for. If Counsellor it lasts a day or two, that’s one thing. But if you often feel overwhelmed or just don’t care, it may be time to reach out for help. There could be negative thinking habits to clean up, or something deeper that’s causing concerns and worries. Either way, there is help available to get you on the road to feeling happy – and thankful – again. The first step is usually the hardest: talking about it.

Our advice for the beginner grower would be to get into good watering habits right away. If you over-water or under-water your plants, they will suffer.

Isn’t it just all about investment performance? A portfolio is not a plan. Yes, it is important to have your assets grow, but it is equally important to have them allocated into the Darlene & Peter Garat right types of accounts for maximum tax efficiency and comfortable risk tolerance. The focus should not be just on which stocks or funds, but on types of accounts, such as registered, tax free savings, non-registered and various tax sheltered investment vehicles including whole life insurance. All those accounts are determined by income through government benefits, pensions outside of your control, locked-in funds, rental income, and even who will be the recipient of your estate when you are gone. But, most importantly, it is about having the most tax efficient income stream now and in retirement so you can enjoy life and do the things you dreamed of, without stressing over outliving your assets. An investment portfolio is just about your gains and losses. A financial plan is about making each dollar count towards a better life and legacy.

Keenan Scardina breaks through on a partial breakaway early in the first period of Friday’s game against the Westshore Wolves. Scardina couldn’t shovel this one home past Wolves goaltender Leighton Williams, but he did earn the night’s first star honours for a great individual effort on the game’s third goal.

their second power play goal a few minutes later when Witala, in the slot, would backhand the puck over Wolves’ goalie Leighton Williams on a beautiful set-up from Alex Brewer and Gage Colpron. It would be the eventual game winner. Ke e n a n S c a r d i n a would earn his first star honours on the third Storm goal. Skating in hard from the blue line, the 6’3” 195 pound forward picked up his own rebound and scored on a beautiful wraparound. It would seem the Storm’s decision to switch from magnet anchors to rubber inserts paid off on the fourth marker. After winning a third period faceoff, Alex Rosolowsky directed the puck to Brewer, whose shot hit the netminder’s arm and travelled up and towards the goal line. Before the Wolves

D-man was able to dislodge the net, it was in. The best was saved for last. The Jake Carr, Rhys Colpron, Kenny Britton line had been flying all night creating opportunities and with eight minutes left in the game it would pay off. Kenny Britton would find the net for the first time this season when his blast struck pay dirt, finding the top far corner. It was set up when Rhys Colpron forced a turnover behind the net. According to Stone, the rookie line set the tone for the game. “That’s a line of kids who don’t get to play a lot, they went out there and created energy.” The 5-1 win ended Westshore’s six game winning streak and keeps the Storm on top of the North Division, two points ahead of the Buccaneers.

Campbell River has its first three game weekend starting in North Saanich this coming Friday for a date with the struggling Peninsula Panthers. On Saturday, they’re in Courtenay battling the Glacier Kings. The next home game will be Sunday at 4 p.m. for the return match with the Panthers.

In other Storm news, former player and current Assistant Coach, Curtis Toneff, has been hired by the BCHL Trail Smoke Eaters. “I’m so excited for him,” Stone says of Tones, “We’re going to miss him dearly here. “He was instrumental in our championship success last year.”

he C ampb el l River Storm suffered a heartbreaking 2-1 double overtime loss to the Nanaimo Buccaneers the night before and they were facing the red hot Westshore Wolves missing three of their key players Friday. That sounds like excuses but instead it was opportunity. The Storm played, arguably, their best game of the season at the Brindy, cruising to a 5-1 win over the Wolves. With Kobe Oishi, Braeden Cyra and Joe Gage called up by the BCHL Powell River Kings, Head Coach Lee Stone said prior to the game, “this is a real opportunity for some of the younger guys to step up and show they belong in the lineup on a regular basis.” The game didn’t start well for the Storm when Westshore struck early. On the first shift, Jacob Malloch pounced on a loose puck in the crease, shovelling it home to take a 1-0 lead. That was the only cloud in an otherwise beautiful night, however. A strong effort for the rest of the period didn’t translate into goals but by period’s end Campbell River were getting the better chances outshooting the Wolves 12-4. Midway through the second period, Ezra Paddock fired a blast from the point that hit teammate Brett Witala in the shoulder, the puck went straight to the league’s top scorer, Gage Colpron, who fired it under the bar. It was Campbell River’s first power play goal in almost two weeks. The Storm would get

ix games into the VIPL season, and the Marine Harvest Riptide U15 Girls soccer team remains undefeated. The team played Saanich in Victoria Saturday in what felt like an “epic battle” atmosphere; intense competition topped off with pelting rain that forced drenched players to dig deep until the end. Riptide started strong, maintaining possession and leading the pace of the game. “Right from the kick off, the girls sent pass after pass through Fusion’s back line which had them scrambling,” according to Coach Lisa Wigard. Momentum temporarily shifted in Saanich’s favour, but Riptide didn’t panic. They quickly readjusted and focused on their penetrating passes and set plays, scoring two successive goals about thirty minutes in. “We practiced our attacking corner kicks this past week and the girls executed them perfectly,” said coach Matt

Sofia Cecic (in white), scored her first goal of the season this weekend in Victoria after returning from injury to help the Riptide in a 2-1 win.

Laver. “One of our players was first to the ball on every attacking corner kick which resulted in one goal and several excellent chances.” Riptide’s Sofia Cecic, who was returning from

injury, came back strong to score her first goal of the season off a corner kick from Assistant Captain, Aisha HunterBellavia. Needless to say, the team was very happy to have Cecic back in the

formation after having been out of commission for four of their previous games. Fans were excited when, on another corner kick, Riptide’s Sarah Bard almost scored by

directing a header on net which, unfortunately, hit the goal post and deflected out. Riptide’s Kristen Clair set up Ciara Halvorson for the team’s second goal, which would end up being enough to earn the win. Despite the opportunity to slow the pace of the game near the end, Riptide kept up the intensity and control in the middle of the field amongst the downpour, making some of the best, quick, composed and penetrating passes in the last five minutes of the game. Ending with confidence, Riptide ultimately outplayed Saanich to win 2-1. Riptide U15 Girls have a bye this coming weekend when they will head to Port Hardy (home town for two players) for weekend training and team building sessions. Then, on Oct. 24, Riptide heads down Island to face Juan de Fuca. For more information on the team, visit Riptide 2001 Girls on Facebook.

Game 2 was a much closer affair against another Vancouver area team. The Tyees were up 2-0 after the first period with markers by Austin Cameron and Cole Dumont. The Vancouver squad stormed back to grab a late lead, however, and hung on for the win. Game 3 was another rematch, this time against North Island. Cole Dumont and Matt Block opened the scoring for the Tyees added another as the score was tied at two after two. The usual pattern of a third period loss was broken this time though as a late goal by Nathan Underhill, which preserved a 4-4 tie. Then an inspired effort from Alex Movald that evoked memories of Paul Coffey at the 1984 Canada Cup saw him save a goal at one end with an amazing backcheck to then finish the play with a 20 foot wrister to go up by one for the win. Game 4 was a tiering round re-match with the tournament host Port Alberni Bulldogs. It was clear early on that the Tyees had used up a lot of energy in their earlier tie with their arch-rivals from up island as they came out flat against the home side and ended up falling 3-0. The loss was made somewhat easier by the delicious thanksgiving meal served by the hosts, however. The team will continue tiering play this weekend.

Campbell River kids who attend Penfield Elementary got an extra long Thanksgiving weekend this year after a fire forced the school to close for the day Friday. At approximately 7 a.m., when principal Hendrick Horsthuis arrived at his school, he was greeted not by empty halls waiting to be filled with laughing children but by smoke and acrid fumes. “He immediately called 911,” said School District 72 Superintendent Tom Longridge, “and the fire department was there almost immediately.” The fire was found to have been contained within an electrical heating unit in one of the classrooms, Longridge said. “There were no active flames or fire in the unit when it was discovered,” Longridge said. “It had put itself out by the time the principal arrived, but due to the acrid smell and lingering air quality situation, we determined to close the school for the day to both investigate and so that no students or staff could be affected by the smoke.” Longridge said there will now be both an internal and likely an independent investigation, “to see what we can learn from this,” and determine if any changes need to be made to prevent another incident like this from happening. Children whose parents didn’t know the school was closed were supervised on site by teachers who had arrived for work also not know-

Quality Foods employees await word on whether they’re going to be heading back to work on Friday. Just before noon on one of the busiest shopping weekends of the year, the smoke alarm went off forcing the store’s evacuation.

Quality Foods evacuated in fire scare MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Shortly before noon Friday filling their carts with Thanksgiving dinner fixings at Quality Foods in Merecroft Village were forced to evacuate the building. Staff, management and customers alike left the store to mill about in the

parking lot while members of Campbell River Fire and Rescue came and went from the building for about a half hour before business resumed as normal. According to Deputy Chief Chris Vrabel, the evacuation was caused by an odour from “the H-Vac heating unit, which had been turned

on for the first time this season and was burning off the dust that had accumulated over the spring and summer, similar to that smell you get when the baseboard heaters come on for the first time in your home after sitting for a while.” Vrabel says there was no direct threat to the public, “but manage-

DEATHS

ERNEST (Ernie) JONES

April 8, 1920 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; September 16, 2015 It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Dad, Granddad and Great Granddad, Ernie Jones. Ernie will be greatly missed by Daughters: Barbara (Larry), and Wendy and Son Keith (Chris) and his Grandchildren: Gary, Keith, Cate, Debbie, Sharon, Andy, Ken and Jill and his ten Great Grandchildren, as well as the rest of family and friends. Ernie was pre-deceased by his loving Wife of 71 years, Lily, in 2010 and we believe they are now sharing a â&#x20AC;&#x153;glass or twoâ&#x20AC;? and a good chin-wag over family and friends. Ernie served in the RAF during WWII stationed in Italy, Egypt and Germany. Ernie was an Engineer until his retirement from Atomic Energy in 1980. He had a long, happy and healthy retirement shared with Lily, Children and Grandchildren. To quote Ernieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oldest Grandchild (Gary), Ernie was â&#x20AC;&#x153;truly one of the sweetest, kindest and most wonderful of people â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a person we have all been proud to call Dad or Granddadâ&#x20AC;?. Ernieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s legacy to us all was his kindness, laughter, integrity, respect and love. We wish to thank the Nurses, Doctors and others at Campbell River Hospital who helped and supported Dad in his last few weeks at the hospital. We all share many happy memories of good times over the years with Dad and celebrate his life and the profound impact that he had on us all.

For those who love, time is not. Missing you today and always.
