Mark Strahl has hung on to his seat in Ottawa. But he’ll be moving to the opposition benches following his Conservative party’s stinging defeat to the Liberal Party on Monday. With some polls still counting, the Liberals were elected or leading in 184 ridings – more than enough to form the next majority government. The Liberal’s march to victory started in the Atlantic provinces, where they claimed all 32 seats. It continued westward, prompting the CBC to project a Liberal government 20 minutes before the polls even closed in B.C. The early results cast a cloud over Strahl’s campaign party at the Best Western Hotel in Chilliwack. The mood lifted as numbers from the Chilliwack-Hope riding began to trickle in. But a Conservative victory wasn’t assured until almost 9 p.m. With all the polls counted, Strahl garnered 21,315 votes (42.4 per cent.) Liberal Louis De Jaeger

was more than 4,350 votes back in second with 16,965 (33.7 per cent.) The NDP’s Seonaigh MacPherson was a distant third with 9,148 votes (18.2 per cent.) Voter turn out was 71.3 per cent. (The numbers are still not official.) Strahl, speaking to supporters after they had watched Prime Minister Stephen Harper accept defeat, acknowledge the struggle the party faced this time around. “As you can see by the numbers,” he said, “the winds of change were against us.” But he stood by the Conservative’s record, echoing Harper’s comments to supporters in Calgary that the Canadian economy is the strongest it has been in years. “This is a great record that we can be proud of, and that we were a part of here in Chilliwack,” Strahl said. “Wake up call.” Meanwhile at the Liberal headquarters downtown Chilliwack, the celebration started before the polls even closed in B.C. Because the black out was removed this year, poll results from the East Coast and Ontario were avail-

able earlier than usual. Louis De Jaeger’s supporters erupted when they heard the Liberals had formed government. And early poll results looked promising for De Jaeger as well, leading to cheers and drumming from supporter Eddie Gardner. When Strahl was predicted this riding’s MP, the mood became more somber. But in the end, De Jaeger roused his supporters with a speech, and a promise that he isn’t finished with politics yet. “We have a great government with a majority of power, and it’s what we wanted,” he said. “It may not have happened in this riding, but it happened in Canada.” He said the close results should be “a wake up call” to Strahl. “Start to get to work for our riding. We deserve better,” he said. He also alluded to the possibility he would enter a different political arena. “Municipal elections are coming,” he said. “Never say never. That’s on the table.”

Newspaper ads, both print and online, play a key role in helping people make their banking and investment decisions. Newspapers and their sites outperform all other media in engaging Canadians, including highincome Canadians, boomers, moms and even young adults. All of which makes advertising in newspapers a very smart move.

Liberal gains reach to B.C. in majority win Tom Fletcher Black Press Prime Minister-elect Justin Trudeau extended his majority government even into the B.C. Interior Monday, as Liberal Stephen Fuhr knocked off Conser vative incumbent Ron Cannan in Kelowna-Lake Countr y. Trudeau thanked supporters in his Montreal riding, and began preparations to implement his new government policies after nine and a half years of Conservative rule in Ottawa. "For three years we had a very oldfashioned strategy," Trudeau said. "We met with and talked with as many Canadians as we could, and we listened." Major commitments by the Liberal campaign include legalizing recreational marijuana sales and running three years of deficits to build infrastructure across the country. Trudeau has also promised to scrap the Conservative government's approval for the Northern Gateway pipeline and enforce a ban on oil tanker traffic on B.C.'s north coast.

One hundred and seventy-seven days after its launch in St. John's, NL, the final three runners of the Mylan Relay for Hope, a cross-country journey to raise funds and awareness for those living with or at risk of HIV/AIDS, arrived in Hope. The runners, representing the B.C. team, arrived on Wednesday before a crowd of students from Hope Secondary School and Mayor Wilfried Vicktor. "Mylan and our partners The Running Room, Delta Hotels and the Elton John AIDS Foundation have created a unique, bold and ambitious national awareness campaign," said Gary Lacasse, chair of the board of the Canadian AIDS Society. B.C. residents Pamela Haaf, Luke Bailey and Derek Flynn were the last three runners to participate in the baton exchange ceremony, which began in St. John's and continued across Canada. They were part of the 44 men and women who participated in this 8,100 km relay run, which began on April 21 at St John's City Hall and reached Hope, B.C. on October 14. The three B.C. residents ran the final 554 km of the relay. "From one portion of the relay to the next, province by province, we have built positive relationships and stimulated community engagement as we moved across the country. I am confident that we can build on this foundation for the future, strengthen our ties with communities and continue to raise awareness of the on-going realities of HIV infection," said Lacasse. Sponsored by Mylan, one of the world's leading generics and specialty pharmaceutical companies, the Mylan Relay for Hope supports the Canadian AIDS Society and aims to raise funds and awareness for those living with or at risk of HIV/AIDS.

Opinion Published by Black Press Limited at 540 Wallace St., Hope, BC V0X 1L0

Missteps common at polls this year

Elections Canada reports that 9,937 people showed up for advanced voting in Chilliwack-Hope over Thanksgiving weekend That's a 261 per cent increase over the 3,808 who voted early in ChilliwackFraser Canyon in 2011. It’s clear that 3.6 million people voting is great news. But the frustration experienced by so many seems at best a display of bad planning by Elections Canada and at worst a sign of deliberate voter suppression. And even more might have voted if they only could have. Like many other Canadians, Chilliwack resident Meghan Martel Reid keenly trudged off for the first day of advanced polls Friday. Her designated place to cast a ballot had a line that started in the school gym, wound through the hallway into the parking lot. She was told it would be an hour and a half wait. “We, along with many others, turned around and left,” Reid told me. She tried again Saturday. Same scenario. Then she tried on the last day, Monday. Twice. No luck. This is a Canadian citizen who really wanted to vote, and planned on being out of her electoral district on Oct. 19. “Monday was actually the shortest line,” she said. “I made it in the building. Only then to realize that it didn’t end in the hall at the gym entrance but snaked through the gym. I gave up when, after 30 minutes, only one person had come out.” Others voted easily, but Reid’s experience was far from isolated. Voting in the 2015 federal election went over about as smoothly as a crunchy peanut butter sandwich in a public school cafeteria. Beyond extreme examples, such as some Yale residents being told they have to vote as far away as Mission, there were smaller missteps.Voter information cards (VIC) have been an issue. Personally, I didn’t receive one although my wife did. We also got one for the husband of the couple we bought the house from. How is that possible? We jointly file income taxes, which is presumably where Elections Canada gets the information from. “We’ve had a lot of this happening,” a friendly Elections Canada staff person told me when I went in to get a new VIC. Then there’s the fact that those who are used to voting at Evergreen Hall are this time directed to the Skwah First Nation band office. The reason? Apparently “accessibility” as the wheelchair ramp at Evergreen Hall is a few degrees too steep. So people with wheelchairs and walkers need to travel a kilometre away from their normal polling station to increase accessibility. Got it? Others have reported misinformation at polling stations. Some voters tell me that Elections Canada staff were asking people in lineups if they had their photo ID that was required to vote. But here’s the thing: you don’t need photo ID to vote. Back to the lineups, we should not mistake enthusiasm for election tampering. Folks seem keen on voting early, something we have seen in all recent elections. This election saw four advanced days of voting rather than three, so an increase in chances to vote can hardly be seen as dissuading people to vote. On the other hand, if Elections Canada can’t figure out how to make the new Fair Elections Act work (i.e. more voting stations at each poll) then what’s the point of an extra day of early voting?

Let’s get real about trade deals BC Views

As the dust settles from Monday’s federal election, to paraphrase former prime minister Kim Campbell, it’s time to talk about serious issues again. The Conservatives were hoping to make 2015 a free trade elecTom tion, by signing onto Fletcher the world’s largest trade deal at the end of July. But things didn’t go as planned at the talks in Maui, and Canada was among the players that walked away from the Trans-Pacific Partnership table at that time. Then came five days of round-the-clock negotiations in Atlanta, with the U.S. pushing for a deal with Japan, Korea, Australia and other Pacific Rim powerhouses to normalize trade in 40 per cent of the world’s economy. And the TPP came together at the end of September.

Canada and B.C. essentially got what our governments were demanding, which was broad access to Pacific Rim markets and continued protection for nearly all of domestic dairy, poultry and egg markets. Also preserved was B.C.’s regulated market for logs and U.S. lumber sales. The 200-kg gorilla of the TPP burst out in the heat of the election campaign, and the Kim Campbell rule was demonstrated again. Much of the discussion revolved around alleged secrecy, as the legal text of the deal won’t be out for some time to come. Protected farmers downed their pitchforks, counting their blessings, and their guaranteed compensation. The NDP was forced to come out against the TPP, as it was against trade deals with the U.S., Mexico, Europe and others. But it’s getting lonely for them as the rest of the world moves on. Within days of the TPP deal, the World Bank issued one of its periodic reports on “extreme poverty,” which it defines as an income of less than $1.90 U.S. a day. And

2015 is the first year when fewer than 10 per cent of the world’s people remain below this global poverty line, down from 12.8 per cent in 2012. It’s easy for comfortable First World folks to protest conditions in running shoe and cell phone factories in India or China, but the graph of extreme poverty in those countries shows steep decline since 1990. Trade and technology are lifting up the poorest of the world. For B.C., withdrawing from Pacific Rim trade is unthinkable. We worry a lot about lumber and copper and natural gas, but the TPP also opens up huge markets for services, where much of our economic future awaits. The question for us is simple. Can we compete in health sciences, engineering, architecture, digital media, and information technology? Do we want to? The TPP doesn’t change B.C.’s dependency on the United States. As with NAFTA, our vital lumber trade remains under a separate

agreement, which expired on Oct. 1. I’m told by federal and provincial officials that at this stage, the U.S. isn’t even taking our calls on the softwood lumber agreement, which Canada and B.C. want extended. Americans are preoccupied with the TPP and domestic politics. After decades of bitter legal actions from the American industry, the latest softwood deal has provided a rough peace. It set a floor price for B.C.’s allegedly subsidized lumber exports, with an export tax collected by Canada when the price went below the floor of $355 per thousand board feet. That money went back into our government general revenue. Higher prices meant no export tax was collected through 2014 and early 2015, and only five per cent as of September. Now that the agreement is expired, by default we have actual free trade in lumber for up to the next year. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

Letters The elephant in the room Having attended the recent AdvantageHOPE economic planning session, regarding engaging various sectors, for the upcoming OCP (Official Community Plan) I was surprised to enter a possible planning session with only 18 people. This consisted of AdvantageHOPE board members and staff, a few supporters, a few members of the general public like myself and three members of council and staff. It left myself and others with a distinct sense, that I call “the elephant in the room.” Previous meetings for the public, had an estimated 50 to 60 plus, with my own best guess, being that this one would have perhaps 30-40 because of it being planning, a subject some regard as too dry. Most notably absent, was any official presence by the local Hope Chamber of Commerce and to the best of my knowledge, there was no one from any of the three local real-estate company’s, which of course are the foot soldiers of so many things relating to economic development. Yet, the format was presented with no mention by the organizers at the beginning, or in closing remarks at the end, of these two major absences, nor not one attendee of any one of a few larger employers. The only time it was mentioned, was in a passing remark by a director of AdvantageHOPE while at the table, regarding the chamber of commerce withdrawing from this process. Otherwise, we were asked to carry on with a set group format. No questions or comments from the floor. Nothing.

With questions about the economic climate of Hope and ensuring more abundant quality future employment in the area, I would suggest that perhaps creating more of a sense of community, like ensuring substantially more public involvement, by regularly and actively engaging the public with AdvantageHOPE needs to be seriously considered. Introducing a few elected positions and less appointments coupled with an expanded general membership, can and will create a more community focused climate, instead of the current disconnect, that has seen good people question and be grilled for simply having the courage to want to ask questions of a group that is being funded by taxpayer dollars. It all begins with leadership. It does not mean having to rework most of what has been put into place, but does mean doing some honest soul searching, to ensure business protocol and direction have been adhered to. Prospective new business or residential development tools, need to be quickly and efficiently accessible, be it on the website, social media or in print. Being one of the first, amongst smaller British Columbia communities to have fibre optic cable, this and other many other commonly used website items, remain absent with an apparent redirect of energy, to focus on tourism at the expense of what most in business, would regard as the fundamentals of economic development, in small communities to ensure a balanced approach of time, money and energy. Located at a key junction in the province, the

District of Hope is well positioned for far more in business, than to be a seasonal summer fix for tourists and generally seasonal employment. Long term prospects for those wishing to live and work here can enjoy far more stability, or simply ride the wild ride of the seasons, weather, and our own Canuck buck against the US dollar. It has been stated and restated to look at expanding the business platform, with recent inroads to tourism being great for seasonal work and little else for the majority of workers. We can develop a stable, more diverse economy that can only come with work, be it in lite industrial policy, or promoting future land development. As AdvantageHope continues to evolve, I hope it begins to heed the wishes of the people that pay the bills, the tax payer and gets on with the business of ensuring a future that is ripe with gifts and not gaffs in ensuring full public involvement and accompanying disclosure. Failure to adhere to the cautionary leaked memo, about conflict of interest — I have to agree that yes indeed a line has been crossed, that can be dealt with, by simply doing the right thing.The thing one would typically do, with wearing many hats and given a short lead time to respond. We have good people both in and outside of AdvantageHOPE, with the emphasis towards tourism being a nice step, but we need substantially more to ensure solid long term job possibilities for both present and future folks choosing to reside here.

What is happening people? I lived in Hope in the 1950 and 60s, got married and moved away but have come to visit ever since. I am shocked at the state this beautiful little town is in! What is happening people? Although there are a lot of new comers that have built some beautiful new homes in Hope — the downtown area has turned into a dirty little shack town. When I drive around the streets downtown there is garbage in every backyard piled sky high. The older homes that used to be quaint have not been kept up.

How disappointing to see a town that in the 1950s and 60s and 70s and 80s and was the hub for tourists turn into what it is now.

SUDOKU OCTOBER 22

Domestic violence affects one in four women — look around to your friends and know that in a group of women the chances of at least a couple of them being impacted by domestic violence is a high probability. Sixty per cent of British Columbians know someone who has been a victim of sexual assault or domestic violence. It is estimated that more than 160,000 B.C. women were victims of domestic violence from 2004 to 2009 and on average, ten women a year are murdered at the hands of their intimate partner. As of 2010, there were 582 known reports of missing or murdered Aboriginal women in Canada with B.C. recording more than any other province. Research demonstrates that victimization rates are much higher among Aboriginal than nonAboriginal women. Twenty-four percent of Aboriginal women said that they have been victims of domestic violence in the fiveyear period ending in 2004. Geographic isolation, lack of access to services, lack of transportation, and poverty heighten the risk for Aboriginal women.

ERIN KNUTSON / THE STANDARD

Supporters came out in droves to light the tree for Purple Lights.

The province of B.C. commits more than $70 million per year in prevention and intervention services and programs that benefit victims of domestic violence and other crimes. It is estimated that 30 to 40 per cent of children who witness the abuse of their mothers are also being abused. Over 600,000 B.C. school-aged children are impacted by domestic violence and a young girl who witnesses her mother being abused is four times more likely to enter into an abusive relationship when she is older. Boys are ten times more likely to grow up to be abusers

if they witness their mothers being abused. These stats are alarming. The question then becomes what can the public do to end domestic violence? Standing up against it is the answer. The month long Purple Lights campaign has been going strong with purple lights being shone across Hope. People showing their support for the cause by wearing purple have been helping to start the conversation around ending violence against women and children in the community. “Each of us has the power to help another to gain the confidence and instill self-worth, so no child or woman has to be a victim of abuse at the hands of their intimate partner or parent,” said Gerry Dyble, executive director at Hope and Area Transition Society. Be part of the solution and shine a light on domestic violence. Hope provides access to several services for women, children, and families through programs offered by Victim Services 604-869-7770, Hope and Area Transition Society (featuring Stopping the Violence and Children Who Witness Abuse programs) 604-869-5111, Jean Scott Transition House 604-869-5191 and Ann Davis Services 604-792-2760.

Local family nurse practitioner, Sue Lawrence, has been leading the ‘Be Active Every Day Challenge’ for elementary school-aged kids at Coquihalla Elementary School during the month of October. “It’s important to have kids start out on the healthy path early in their life — healthy habits formed at a young age are easier to follow as they get older,” said Lawrence. Hosting the challenge at a local school gives local primary youth care providers the chance to build on community partnerships and to really have a positive impact on how youth perceive healthy living.” The month long province-wide initiative was designed to encourage children to be conscientious of their health hygiene, while challenging them to embark on a mission to get at least one hour of physical activity every day. Only nine per cent of kids are currently meeting the Canadian Guidelines recommendation on daily physical exercise. The Doctors of BC’s Council on Health Promotion program has stepped in and created the Challenge to incite kids aged five to 11 to participate in a unique movement dedicated to fostering healthy lifestyle choices. “We are dealing more and more with diabetes and obesity problems, and I worry about social isolation for the kids, with the use of cell phones and internet — it’s about educating the public on these issues,” said Lawrence on

protecting the health of children. Primary care practitioners like Lawrence have jumped on board to ensure that young patients have the opportunity to engage in healthy living practices at a young age, while promoting good life long habits. More than 40 primary care providers are participating in the challenge with 33 schools and 4700 students actively engaged to up fitness levels, have fun, and increase awareness around healthy living. Elements from the Live 5-2-1-0 campaign that was launched earlier this year have been implemented. Hope has been a strong supporter of the message urging youngsters to enjoy 5 or more vegetables and fruits every day; power down to no more than 2 hours of screen time a day and play actively at least 1 hour a day, while choosing healthy, and 0 sugarsweetened drinks. Demonstrating positive habits through videos and promotional items, Lawrence will celebrate the kids’ achievements at the end of the challenge by handing out certificates. The children were asked to keep journals about their progress during the month and the Bike Stars theme this year was instrumental in giving them tools to be Bike Fit, while engaging them in a fun and interactive way. A contest designed to have kids write in about their active stories, will provide the chance for one lucky fitness enthusiast to win a new bike to help them realize their Bike Fit goals.

one at affordable prices with no registration fees. Studio Directors, Cheryl Lynne Lacey and Lori Steberl are firm believers in the motto "performers need to contribute to the community" and students need to be involved in helping their community. There is no need for registration or hidden fees which put additional stress families. Music, dance and theatre are so important to the development of youth and children and to reducing isolation for seniors and adults. Andrew fits right into the Studio's belief system of increasing self esteem in all members of the community while having fun. Andrew is also joining the theatre group and will be performing in the pantomime production of "Freezing" on November 21 and 22. His character will portray Rambo, returning 30 years later, to save the town of Hopeful from the evil Ice Queen Freezella.

Sports Friends in fitness for life Barry Stewart Hope Standard These two women are definitely committed to staying fit. Without fail, Brenda Deschenes and Miranda Cowan have had at least 30 minutes of physical activity every, single, day since November 1, 2014. “Yes, there have been days when we have had colds, injuries or headaches,” said Cowan. “But we have both been healthy enough over the last year that we have managed to get our 30 minutes in — even on crutches. “I like to say that the reason neither of us have been too sick to get our time in, is because we have made exercise part of our routine. The exercise gives us fresh air, sunshine, a chance to learn something new, or a chance to visit with each other and also other Team F.I.T. members or friends.” The two met when they got involved in the Team F.I.T. learn-torun program at C.E. Barry School and the group has motivated them to stay fit and active. “The idea started with one of my friends posting the 30/30 challenge (30 minutes of exercise for 30 days) last October for her cross-country ski club,” recalled Cowan. “Pauline Johnson (Team F.I.T. leader) and I decided we would do it as a Team F.I.T. activity to motivate people to stay active when the weather was getting cold and wet. She had some challenges, such as trying a new sport — and we did.” A good number of locals joined the challenge — as well as family and friends and former Hope residents, stretching from the Okanagan to Vancouver Island. Each day, challenge members would post their activities on the group’s Facebook page, building on the team spirit and nudging each other to be accountable to the group and, most importantly, to themselves. “Towards the end of the month, Brenda let me know that some of SUBMITTED PHOTO the participants were going to do a 30/365, so we figured why not try it Miranda Cowan (left) and Brenda Deschenes have done at least 30 minutes of activity on every day since last November — and they are now upping the challenge to 60 too?” said Cowan. minutes per day for the coming year.

OBITUARIES 2016 BC Hunting Regulations Synopsis

SCHACHTEL, Veronica (Verna) Veronica Katherine Schachtel passed away peacefully on Tuesday, October 13, 2015, after several years battling cancer. Her loving husband Joe was by her side right to the end. Verna is survived by her husband Joe, of 57 years, and her three children: Brenda, Nina and Lloyd as well as her six grandchildren: Rob, Ryland, Miranda, Frazer, Avery and Delaney. Verna was a lover of all things musical - singing, dancing, playing the guitar. She and her husband Joe were known at family dances for the unique country jig only the two of them knew how to do. Verna loved her family very much, and gave her love and energy to them for as long as she was able. Her greatest love, however, was for her God, Jehovah. She devoted many hours each month, for as long as her strength allowed, to the door to door ministry, sharing with others the Bible’s promise that God will soon restore this earth to a paradise - and will even resurrect those who have died. A memorial service will be held on Sunday, October 25, 2015 at 3 pm at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses, 1247 6th Ave, Hope, BC.

OBITUARIES

NICHOLSON, Gorden Ray February 23, 1935 - October 3, 2015

With sadness we announce the passing of Gordie Nicholson. Gordie will be sorrowfully missed by his wife Brenda who was always at his side providing love and care. He will also be missed by his children: Mitchell, Mark (Jacqueline), Lance, Kerry Anne (Bruce), Sheila, stepsons: Jeff and Scott (Angela), 14 grandchildren and one great grandchild. Gordie was born in Aldergrove. He spent the better part of his youth in Botany Valley, north of Lytton, and Othello before settling in Hope for the past 70 years. He was born in the middle of a large family. He was predeceased by his father Edward, mother Minnie, brothers: John and Clifford and sisters: Lenora, Ellen, Marlene, Valerie and Sheila. He is survived by brother: Roger and sisters: Sharon and Virginia. Gordie’s good nature, humour and sharp wit endeared him to many. He always had company. It was people that brought him joy and he had many long lasting friendships. His humour was infectious. He could readily make his granddaughters giggle, his grandsons guffaw and the rest of us shake our heads and laugh. He was generous; almost to a fault. His fridge was always open to the thirsty, his cupboards to the hungry and his heart to those that were hurting. Gordie was once aptly described as a “rough diamond”. He will be missed. As requested, there will not be a service.

It is with great sadness that we say goodbye to a loving son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin and friend. Ryan was known for his quick and beautiful smile and his gentle and compassionate nature. He is survived by his parents Gord and Wendy (Haroldson) Catt, his brothers: Max and Curtis, grandparents: Stan and Sylvia Haroldson and Mariette Catt, and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins. He was predeceased by his uncle, Bruce Haroldson, and grandfather Ozmer Catt. Ryan was completing his electrical apprenticeship with B.C. Hydro when he was diagnosed with cancer. He quietly battled this illness with amazing strength and dignity. One of his nurses from Lions Gate Hospital paid Ryan a special tribute. She likened him to Terry Fox in his courage and determination to survive his cancer and suffer through the pain so he could be with his Mom and Dad, Max and Curtis and all of his loved ones. A Celebration of Ryan’s life was held on Friday October 9, 2015 at the Pinnacle Hotel in North Vancouver.

DEVELOPMENT OF A PEST MANAGEMENT PLAN Application #: KMC-ROW IVMP-2015 Applicant: Kinder Morgan Canada (KMC), 7815 Shellmont Street, Burnaby BC V5A 4S9 Cheryl Thesen (403-358-2509) Agent: SMC Consulting, 1582 Lawrence Avenue, Penticton BC V2A 3C1 Tel/Fax: (250) 492-6193 e-mail: smcconsulting@shaw.ca In accordance with the British Columbia’s Pest Management Act and Regulations, KMC is required to develop a Pest Management Plan (PMP) (for KMC the PMP is referred to as the Integrated Vegetation Management Plan (IVMP)). The PMP manages problem vegetation, including control of noxious weeds and invasive plants within KMC’s rights-of-way and access roads to its pipeline systems and facilities. In British Columbia, KMC operates the Trans Mountain Pipeline transporting crude oil and refined petroleum products and the Jet Fuel Pipeline transporting aviation fuel. The pipelines are located below ground and in proximity to the following communities in British Columbia: Valemount, Albreda, Blue River, Avola, Vavenby, Clearwater, Little Fort, Darfield, McLure, Heffley Creek, Kamloops, Merritt, Kingsvale, Hope, Chilliwack, Abbotsford, Sumas, Langley, Surrey, Coquitlam, Burnaby, Vancouver and Richmond. This PMP has been prepared to replace the existing 5 year PMP which expires in 2016. The proposed duration of the IVMP (PMP) is from March 31, 2016 to March 31, 2021. The vegetation management and weed control methods proposed for use include hand cutting and pulling, mowing, trimming, pruning, selective slashing, retaining existing low ground cover, and seeding, fertilization where set backs permit and tree/shrub plantings. The use of pesticides is intended within the area to which the PMP (IVMP) applies and may include the use biological control agents. KMC conducts all work, including pest management, in strict adherence with all applicable laws and regulations. The common names and an example of trade names of the pesticides proposed for use under this plan include: aminocyclopyrachlor (Navius VM), aminopyralid (Milestone), chlorsulfuron (Telar), clopyralid (Lontrel 360), dicamba (Vanquish), diflufenzopyr (Overdrive), flumioxazin (Payload), fluroxypyr (Retain B), glyphosate (Vantage XRT), MCPA (MCPA Amine 500), mecoprop-P (Mecoprop-P), metsulfuron methyl (Escort), picloram (Tordon 22K), triclopyr (Garlon XRT), 2,4-D (2,4-D Amine 600), Hasten (adjuvant) and siloxylated polyether (adjuvant). Application methods include: backpack, power hose and nozzle, wick/wipe-on applicator, squirt bottle and boom sprayer. A draft copy of the proposed IVMP (PMP) and maps of the proposed treatment areas may be examined in detail online http://www.kindermorgan.com/content/docs/kmc_row_ivmp.pdf or by contacting the Agent listed above. A person(s) wishing to contribute information about a proposed treatment site, relevant to the development of the pest management plan, may send copies of the information to the applicant (c/o SMC Consulting, Agent, at the address listed above), within 30 days of the publication of this notice.
