hat’s the feeling Campbell River youth Ayden Garlinski-Gonsky described during a visit to the grave of a Canadian solider who died freeing the Netherlands from Nazi Germany rule. Garlinski-Gonsky visited the memorial recently with his host grandmother who wanted to show the young man a small part of his Canadian heritage. Garlinski-Gonsky, who graduated from Timberline this past summer, is currently on an exchange with Rotary, attending Grade 12 in Rhoon, a small town that borders the city of Rotterdam in the Netherlands. Garlinski-Gonsky said his host grandmother was eager to show him the memorial to a Canadian solider who lost his life during the LiberaContinued on Pg. 2

tion of the Netherlands during World War II. So, after picking two roses from her garden, and attaching a small note to each stem, the pair set off. “On the walk there, she told me the story of how this unknown Canadian solider had been the last person to die in a small battle that had taken place there,” Garlinski-Gonsky said in an email to the Rotary Club. “The memorial had been financed by members of the surrounding community who had decided to recognize the lives of the individuals who had lost their lives liberating (what was formerly known as) Holland.” The Canadian Armed Forces (the First Canadian Army) played a significant role in liberating the Netherlands from a five-year long occupation by Nazi Germany. This May 5 marked 70 years since the Netherlands was freed by the allied forces. Campbell River held

Ayden Garlinsky-Gonsky is serving on a Rotary Exchange in the Netherlands where he was able to get a greater sense of Canada’s effort in liberating the country. Below, he poses with new Dutch friends and other exchange students.
a special ceremony in Spirit Square to mark the anniversary. The Netherlands has celebrated Liberation Day since 1945 and in 1990 it was first celebrated as a national holiday. Garlinksi-Gonsky said seeing a memorial to one of the many who gave their lives in the pursuit of freedom was humbling. “It was a very powerful moment for me as a Canadian, standing there with my host grandma, who had lived through the Second World War, paying our respects to this man who had liberated her
neighbourhood.” Garlinski-Gonsky, a member of the local youth band Off to Sea, said his host grandma then asked him to sing O Canada. “After I finished singing, we placed our roses and headed back home,” he said. “Growing up in
Canada, I had always known the significance of the Second World War, but it wasn’t until that moment, standing where 70 years ago a battle had raged, that I really felt the significance of what had happened over those dark six years.”

Darryl Hansen, a veteran of the war in Afghanistan, survived multiple firefights and three separate explosions, one by a suicide bomber and two by improvised explosive devices. Hansen continues his recovery from traumatic brain injury and received the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Medal for his dedication to helping other injured soldiers.

arryl Hansen was a corporal with the 2nd Battalion Princess Patricia’s Light Infantry when one of his troop mates stepped on an improvised explosive device in July 2008. His unit was on patrol in Afghanistan near a forward operations base and already had multiple firefights that day and Hansen had injured his knee, but pressed on to finish the patrol. “We were about 125 metres away from our destination where we were going to stop for the night and my buddy stepped on the IED and triggered it and he passed away,” Hansen said. The shockwave slammed Hansen into a mud wall that collapsed on top of him. “I remember waking up and the guys were saying, ‘Don’t let him go to sleep,’ and they were keeping me awake the rest of the night,” Hansen said. Hansen, then 26, in the few months after arriving in Afghanistan, had already survived multiple firefights, a previous IED explosion that killed his section commander and a suicide bomber who killed an Afghan National
Army member and injured three Canadians. The explosion left Hansen with a swollen disc in his spine, whiplash, permanent ringing in his ears and severe headaches from a traumatic brain injury, which have been treated since 2012 with Botox injections to his scalp to relax soft tissue and relieve pressure on his skull. The treatments make him feel sick, but are preferable to the prescription painkillers that blunted pain and cognitive skills. Extensive testing determined the nature of his brain injury and how to treat it. Hansen was slurring his speech, had trouble recalling words, would get lost and eventually had to use a GPS to commute between home and work. Hansen, now 33, recently moved to Campbell River to become a financial advisor and credits his success to support from his wife, maintaining a positive attitude and the Canadian Armed Forces’ Join Personnel Support Unit, which extended Hansen’s military service by assigning him to the 39 Signal Regiment in Nanaimo. “The [support unit] was the greatest thing the Canadian military’s ever done, in my opin-
ion,” Hansen said. “We got to go there and hang out with other injured soldiers and talk about our story. … I was helping a lot of the new guys that were injured trying to get through the
Veterans Affairs system, because that’s a tough system to deal with.” Hansen was awarded the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal for his work with veterans in 2013.

t’s been up since late summer, but the Discovery Passage Mural on the side of the building at 871 Island Highway on Pier Street received it’s official unveiling last week. “We hope that as people enter this gateway to downtown, they get a sense of what’s awaiting them when they get into the heart of Campbell River,” said Jim Powell, CEO of the BC Centre for Aquatic Health (BC CAHS) at the event. “We feel that this mural is a portal to our past, our future, and the sense of who we are here in Campbell River and what’s here to explore and discover.” Accompanying the mural, there is also a handy guide plaque placed beside the door of the BC CAHS that explains the creatures and other life that is featured in the work. Artists Alex Witcombe and Nick Hutton-Jay of Flywheel Studios, who designed and painted the mural, weren’t able to make the unveiling, but sent a statement, which was read by Powell. “We would like to send a huge, resounding thank-you to the people of Campbell River for making this mural such a joy to paint,” the statement read. “One of the major positives of being involved in public art is the interaction with the public. The great comments, conversations and waves from honking cars made painting this a truly memorable experience. “We are looking forward to adding much more colour and vibrancy to the city of Campbell River in the years to come.” Mayor Andy Adams is looking forward to more colour and vibrancy popping up in the downtown core, as well. “Downtown revitalization has been a key strategic priority for not only this council but all four councils I’ve been on over the past 10 years,” Adams said. “What we’ve been able to do, with the help of Ron Neufeld and his staff at City Hall, is create incentives and opportunities to engage the community to help bring that revitalization to fruition.” He said they first came up with the tax exemp-
of various community members from different sectors) to tell us what they think works, and, what can I tell you? It works. This is pretty cool,” he says, looking up at the new mural. And more are on the way.
Adams confirmed that more facades in that area of downtown have been approved for mural installation, including Tyee Marine, right across the street, though there has been no timeline given for its completion.

Our View
Let’s end the dithering
Well, it’s good to see city council decide to tackle the 3.5 acre site it (we) owns on the city’s waterfront beside the Discovery Harbour Mall. Council has struck a task force to look into what to do with the property. This land has been on the books for far too long now. It was acquired as a condition of creating the Discovery Harbour Mall which was built by the Campbell River Indian Band who have made good use of their portion. The city initially had a time frame within which it had to build something but that got extended. It was first proposed to be used for a community centre back in the early 1990’s and then there was the suggestion of a casino. Everybody’s had an opinion on what should go there but the controversy surrounding the use of the land has made previous councils too timid to make a decision about it. And so, it has sat for over 20 years like a “sand pit,” as Mirror City Hall reporter Kristen Douglas says on Page 14 of this issue. There hasn’t even been the impetus to hydro-seed the property and grow grass on the site just to make it look less ghastly. Plant a tree for goodness sake. A park bench! Could we not have had a simple park bench or two from where we could watch our beautiful Discovery Passage? How much would that have cost? But no, it’s been decades of wrangling and dithering. Let’s hope this new task force can finally get this property dealt with once and for all.
Letters
Keep kids off the roads and in the parks
I have to add my voice of support to Lois and Ed Jarvis and the growing objection to the issue of paying for parking at the new Hospital. I read with interest, the account from Dan Maclennan) from (VIHA) Island Health who sorely understated that the idea was “not popular”.I can’t imagine why he would think it would be!. More importantly,why should a faceless bureaucrat from down Island think that because this pay parking is done in other jurisdictions, make it in some way mandatory for it to be in place here.Because he said it does not make it so. The lead that the Jarvis’,who are private
citizens,have taken on this and other community health issues is more than commendable and puts the politicians, present and past on council, to shame. Were it not for Ed and Lois, I have my doubts that we would even have the hospital in it’s current location. We, with their leadership got the hospital for Campbell River and I think we can follow the lead to overturn this, what amounts to a ridiculous extra tax on those who are ill and their families. Someone on Council needs to take some leadership and pass a bylaw as Delta did for the benefit of it’s citizens, and face down Island Health. Good on ya Lois and Ed. Robert Kaiser

Why are we worried about putting in parks and facilities at large taxpayer costs if all we have to do is unleash our kids into the streets. This is not a dead end street I speak of either.

The B.C. government declared the first Conservation Officer Day on Nov. 4, to recognize the 110-year history of the service that started out as mostly volunteer “game wardens.” This is overdue recognition for what is essentially a police force that only receives public notice when a bear or cougar has to be killed to protect people. The ceremony at the B.C. legislature included awards. Chief Conservation Officer Doug Forsdick presented longservice medals and two commendations for lifesaving. One was to CO Jason Hawkes, who rescued a family of four from their sinking boat on Kootenay Lake last June. He reached them in rough, windy conditions when they were waist-deep in water, far

Now I’ve heard it all. Today we were told that it’s a great thing that parents let their kids play in the streets of Campbell River. That is what we were told when we complained to RCMP that there is a family in town that allows their kids to take over the street with hockey as well as laying in the middle of the road doing chalk art. When we were kids we were taught by responsible adults that you don’t play in the middle of the road.

at the event. He relayed a report from the B.C. Government Employees’ Union that there has been a 10 per cent cut in CO staff since 2002. Not so, replied Environment Minister Mary Polak. The number has “hovered around 148” in that time, she said, including seasonal staff for peak hunting and fishing periods. Polak said extra investment has gone into trucks that serve as mobile command centres, so people aren’t sitting in offices waiting for the phone to ring. They patrol more and respond faster, which can be vital. The CO service also works on cases such as the Mount Polley mine breach. It has a commercial environmental enforcement unit, a special investigations unit to deal with smuggling and organized crime, and an intelligence analyst. In short, they’re real cops, working with a group of about 150 compliance officers at the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations.

It is acceptable to heat our Turning player against her teammates is ugly homes with burning wood Letters
Marine Harvest needs to rein in the soccer bullies. Turning Freyja Reed’s teammates against her is just ugly. In hopes of improving its wild-salmon-killer image, the firm is buying social license in its deal to sponsor eight Vancouver Island Riptide youth elite soccer teams. Freyja, 14, believes fish farming is harmful and she balked at the MH logo on her uniform, the changing of all team names to ‘Marine Harvest Riptide’ and selling MH fish-farm salmon as
a fundraiser. If one of the teams wins the provincials, the Marine Harvest team name will be on the cup and in all the media. She doesn’t want to win a trophy with that name attached. The story of the Riptide Steering Committee forbidding Freyja and her mother from criticizing the Marine Harvest deal went viral. So, the Committee suspended all activities for Freyja’s U15 team and technical training for all Riptide teams. Angry Riptide parents (not recogniz-
ing the manipulation) ripped into Freyja and her mom, blaming them for the suspension and loss of training. The Marine Harvest name is now associated with muzzling free speech, trying to push Freyja out of the team, and the use of intimidation and hate as tools to achieve a corporate goal, crushing a girl’s dreams and friendships. Riptide officials are doing Marine Harvest’s dirty work. Suspending the whole team and all training was clearly
designed to turn teammates against Freyja. How vindictive. How cruel. And Marine Harvest’s inaction to rein in Riptide strongly suggests the company is complicit. Clearly this is not what Freyja wanted. But in showing such strength and resolve, standing up to this corporation and its fawners, she is inspiring. And, she’s revealed Marine Harvest’s true sponsorship colours: it’s about profit, not people. Jamie Bowman Comox
I was pleased to read the article, “Sponsor a room in the extreme weather shelter” (Oct. 30) to find that the shelter is back for the winter season and in the capable hands of Paul Mason. As a fourth-year nursing student, I recognize some of the difficulties of homelessness, such as maintaining an adequate and healthy diet, developing infections due to improper treatment of wounds, and accessing a safe place to store medications. I was involved as a volunteer in the fundraiser “The Coldest Night of the Year” this past February and have come to appreciate the benefits of this housing resource. Two years without any fatalities due to exposure is incredible and
our community should be proud. With the federal government’s cuts to affordable housing, homelessness has increased exponentially and 180,000 homeless Canadians are staying in emergency
shelters annually. But homelessness is not just an economical concern; it is a human one. How can we expect the health of those with mental illness or addictions to improve if they are discharged back into
such dreadful circumstances? As Canadians, we have a voice that can bring about change by compelling the government to invest in the crisis of homelessness. Holly McQueen

New wood stoves and fire place inserts burn at a very high tempature and the emissions are acceptable to BC Air Quality.
So the odour from burning wood is not a clear representation of pollutants. Finally, we all make choices in how we want to live based on many factors. In each of our homes we live within the law including air quality and enirvomental regulation. And at this time it is acceptable as noted above to heat our homes or enjoy a warm fire. Erin C.

NIC faces bright future despite funding challenges MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
It took a year of research, consultation and prioritizing, but the plan is set for the next five years of operations at North Island College (NIC). And the future looks bright, according to President John Bowman. “It’s my first plan – I’ve only been here since August of 2013,” Bowman says, “and I’m excited to share it with the public and show them all the great things going on here and how we plan to move forward into the future.” While there’s “not a lot that is new,” in the plan, Bowman says, “there are things that have been elevated in prominence and some focuses have shifted somewhat.” One of the increased focuses over the next five years is the diversification of the program offerings at NIC, and expansion of programs into more communities. “Right now, most of our international
programming is only offered in the Comox Valley, for example,” Bowman says, “so we’re hoping to expand some of that out into the Campbell River and Port Alberni campuses.” Their priority has always been, and continues to be, improving student outcomes, Bowman says, and while that hasn’t changed, the ways to accomplish it has. They took their cues on how to move forward from community stakeholders, students, teachers, union representatives, and various other advisory groups. “It was a very inclusive process,” Bowman says. “I spent this past spring travelling around the whole region going to town hall meetings, municipal council meetings and talking to people, and what I kept hearing was that people recognize the importance of the college to the region and that they want it to continue to improve and serve in the best interest of the communities, and that’s reflected in this plan.”

Dr. Tasso
Dr. Tassos Irinakis My denture is loose? Why? What can I do? Poor fitting dentures are a very common complaint of denture wearers. But why does this happen? When we lose all our teeth in one or both of our jaws, the “alveolar process” (aka “Jaw bone”) has minimal reason to “exist” so it starts to atrophy, i.e. shrink! Without you doing anything at all….your jaw becomes smaller and smaller over time and your denture becomes loose. The most common response to that is for you to go and buy some denture “glue” from the pharmacy and hope that it “sticks” hard enough so your denture doesn’t pop up when you chew or laugh. But the jaw bone “shrinkage” does not stop with conventional dentures and continues to progress leading to recession of the jawbone and a collapsed unattractive smile. Conventional dentures also make it difficult to eat a wide variety of foods thus affecting your quality of life. What can I do? Regardless if your denture has been delivered by your dentist or by your denturist, there is a great option to significantly improve its function. It’s called an Implant Supported Overdenture. Basically, with the support of dental implants,

The one less positive aspect of the plan is the section on “Revenue, Expenditures and Funding.” Part of the strategic planning involved establishing NIC’s, “funding and fiscal capacity challenges,” which came packaged in a fairly disheartening chart. The graphic shows that NIC’s base operating grant from the Ministry of Advanced Education – which makes up 78 per cent of the school’s revenue – was $78 below the per capita average of $217 for rural colleges in 2013/14, which the school says represents a $12.4 mil-
lion annual difference between them and other similar schools. “Unfortunately, there isn’t a formula system for funding post secondary institutions,” Bowman says, and that creates a situation where not all institutions are on equal footing. One of the fallouts from that lack of funding can actually be seen as an opportunity, however, as it has forced the school to become more “entrepreneurial,” in order to meet its funding requirements, giving it opportunities to engage their communities in different and more interesting ways.
It also brings the college closer to the community itself. Because the college is more dependent on community support than other schools of its size, it is naturally more in tune with the community’s needs and willing to make adjustments to suit those needs, which it does.
One of those adjustments, Bowman says, is the upcoming announcement surrounding the Campbell River campus’ renovation project, which he says will create a better learning environment and promote student success here in our community. “The overarching

Hell breaks loose by Christine Lovely
On this Remembrance Day, I fondly and proudly reflect back on my Grandfather, Private Jack Tufford, who served in WWII. On July 8, 1944, at the age of 24, the following events unfolded in Buron, France and this is an excerpt from ‘The Remembrance Project’ and the chapter entitled “Hell Breaks Loose’ by Zen Karp: “As the wheat field came to an end, Private Jack Tufford and the rest of his section brought their weapons into their shoulders. They had so far made it through some of the enemy’s mortars and were in good shape to close the last few hundred yards to Buron. Without stopping, B and D Companies stepped out from the field of grain and it was at this moment the maelstrom of violence began. From less than three hundred yards to their front, erupted a hail of withering fire into the leading platoons. It was the anti-tank ditch and from it, the SS raked over their exposed enemy while the Canadians could do virtually nothing. The rich, life giving soil absorbed gallons of blood. Through German sights, Private Jack Tufford was just one of the Canadians who dropped like a sack within seconds of the first rounds being fired. He had been shot once, and hit by mortar shrapnel which ripped through his chest. Like many with him that day, he was stopped well before reaching Buron.” My Grandfather, as a result of his injuries, lived the rest of his life with one lung. As a young child, I would often ask, “Papa, show me your scar from where you got shot in the War!” but it was not something he wanted to talk about, being such a modest man.

I was the first born grandchild. Many more grandchildren and great grandchildren would follow, but he always made me feel like I was the only one. He and my grandmother resided on the beach shores of Lake Huron in Kincardine, Ontario for the remainder of his life.
Private Jack Tufford
They both were active members of the Legion, playing crib daily, family outings to sing-alongs every Sunday night, formal events and attending the funerals of life long army friends he was fortunate enough to outlive. He was notorious for having a joke or a saying every time you saw him, many of which I still remember to this day. There have never been the proper words to express my gratitude for his service to our country. He was a humble man who never demanded recognition or attention. He was loved by all and is missed dearly. I love you Papa, thank you for being the best grandfather!

Quadra’s hopes for more affordable and seniors’ housing MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
A long-planned and desperatelyneeded seniors’ and affordable housing facility for Quadra Island is continuing to inch its way closer to becoming reality. “The housing situation is not very good on the island,” according to Karen Gair, director and treasurer with the Quadra Circle Community Connections Society, one of the partners involved in the housing initiative. “There are lots of people who are living in their campers and that kind of thing, because they can’t get any accommodations, and if they can, it’s too expensive for them.” “We have close to 70 people who are going to need housing here in the next five years. There are certainly some seniors who need it tomorrow,” agrees Maureen McDowell, president of the organization. The issues with the lack of housing on Quadra – especially affordable housing – are varied and complicated. “There are restrictions for where development can take place on the island,” McDowell says, “because we do want to keep it a rural feel. People can (only) develop here in the Q-Cove area, and in parts of the Heriot Bay area.” Which is why they are hoping to secure a parcel of land in Quathiaski Cove where they could build a seniors’ complex. “There’s a huge housing crunch for seniors – especially the low to moderate income ones – because Campbell River doesn’t have a heck of a lot to offer, and there aren’t the assisted living or supported housing beds that there should be being built, so that’s prompted us to partner with Quadra Island Seniors’ Housing Society (who operate five units on the Island in the form of two duplexes and a single unit) to look at how to develop more mixed-income housing here in Quathiaski Cove.” The vision the organizers have for addressing this need is a supported living seniors’ residence – made up of 10 to 12 suites in a central building with small cabin-type residences surrounding it – on part of the acreage adjacent to the Q-Cove Centre. “The residence will accommodate single seniors and couples who need meals, housekeeping and minimal personal care provided by a live-in staff person,” reads their proposal. Island Health nurses and other caregivers would visit periodically to provide additional personal and medical care. McDowell says the idea is to surround the seniors’ facility with other housing so that it is integrated within the wider community, rather than produce a “seniors’ ghetto,” where they are segregated from the rest of the community. “Some of the traditional models of nursing homes are not of interest to us. We don’t want to be warehoused, and we still want to be contributing to society.”
The sale of the surrounding market housing will also help financially support the seniors’ centre. And the proposal has the backing of at least one politician with some pull. “Many seniors cannot continue to maintain their larger properties and wish to move into an area that is walkable and more social and will provide for all of their daily needs, from independent living right through assisted living,” wrote Jim Abram, Regional District Director representing Quadra, in a letter of support last year backing the project when it was still just a nugget of an idea. “This project will do just that and allow us to maintain a society of ‘elders’ that can help us to learn from their varied life experiences. I think this proposed project has great potential to provide safe, affordable housing for our aging seniors and also for our young families, so they can stay on Quadra and continue to contribute to our community. Over 100 Quadra Islanders attended a meeting Nov. 2 at the Quadra Recreation Centre to hear about the current state of the project. David Rousseau, an architectural and green-building consultant who volunteered his services to the Joint Committee working on the project, presented the community with his three-phase model for how the area could be developed gradually over time, emphasizing the sensitive ecological development that will need to occur to preserve parkland and riparian protected areas. Abram was on hand to again express his support for the project, and he brought along Ross Hotsenpiller, SAO of the Strathcona Regional District (SRD), who explained how the SRD could partner with the project, possibly providing Park funds down the road to help with parkland development within and surrounding the facility, as well as expediting the procedures for rezoning. John Jessup, the committee’s development consultant, told the crowd that Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation and BC Housing can assist with grants for pre-planning studies and in getting preferred-rate, insured mortgage financing for construction for the social housing component. “If someone has lived here most of their lives, and they get to the point where they need more services,” Gair says, “they don’t want to go to Campbell River. That’s not home. They want to be here with their friends.” “Some of the seniors who have had to go into homes in Campbell River really find they don’t get to keep those connections, because the ferry is a barrier, in a sense,” adds McDowell. “As people get older, it gets harder and harder for them to get motivated enough to go across to Campbell River to get the care they need.” Well, soon they may not have to. For more information on the project, contact McDowell at 250-2852221 or by email at mcboas@gicable. com

Cit y counci l has approved the formation of two new task forces designed to rejuvenate forestry in the community and to come up with a plan for the city’s prestigious waterfront property. The task forces were first announced by Mayor Andy Adams in his inaugural address last December as the new council came into office. Adams said at last week’s Monday council meeting that the city’s search for a new city manager and other business had temporarily put the two task forces on the back burner. “It’s been a long time coming but we’ve been busy with a number of things,” Adams said. “I know there are people who are champing at the bit to get going on these.” The first, the Forestry Task Force, will meet with all the forest-based companies in Campbell

Adams said in his inaugural address that the forestry industry is an opportunity the city needs to seize on. “We have neglected this sector for the past three years and it is my intention to work to revive this industry in Campbell River,” Adams said at the time. The city did have a Future of Forestry Task Force when current
Coun. Charlie Cornfield was mayor but that fell by the wayside following the 2011 election when former mayor Walter Jakeway took office. Cornfield said at last week’s council meeting that he was very much in support of resurrecting the forestry task force, as well as establishing Adams’ other task force – a group to be tasked with coming up with development options for the city’s 3.5 acre waterfront site. Adams said the purpose of the 3.5 acre task force is to “develop, complete and recommend a plan to council that ensures that the public interests and

amenities for the site are respected and compliment the downtown and waterfront revitalization strategic plans and the Campbell River Indian Band’s vision for its neighbouring six acre site.” Members that sit on the task force will be asked to participate in community engagement and work in cooperation with the city’s First Nations partner. The 3.5 acre property is currently a sand pit between Discovery Harbour Shopping Centre and the Quadra Island ferry terminal. The land is one of three parcels that, when combined with two neighbouring parcels belonging to the Campbell River Indian Band, make up 9.5 acres. What to do with the site has been a hot topic at City Hall for more than 20 years. The previous council, under Jakeway, hired consultants to host a public engagement session and prepare a report on recommendations for the property. According to the report, the majority of those who attended the public session supported converting the waterfront property into a public space. While no council has yet to make a decision on what to do with the property, the previous council last year did approve a draft of 18 guiding principles with respect to development of the property. Those principles include: connecting the property to the rest of the downtown core; emphasizing pedestrian priority over vehicles; consideration of public amenity space; consideration of residential and mixed use development with significant public park space; ensuring a First Nations identity; having public views to the water, and others. Adams said the newly formed 3.5 acre task force will have one year to forward its recommendations to council and will be led by himself and Coun. Marlene Wright, who will serve as non-voting co-chairs on the task force. Coun. Cornfield will serve as the non-voting chairperson of the Forestry Task Force. Terms of reference for both task forces are expected to go before council at its next meeting, on Nov. 23.

Matthew Good and Scott Helman rock Tidemark MIKE DAVIES
CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
C
anadian rock icon Matthew Good is certainly aging, but he can still electrify a room like few others, and he proved it on Saturday at the Tidemark. Fans still flock to his music as they have for nearly two decades, and his choice of the young – and even youngerlooking – Scott Helman as his opening act on his latest tour in support of Good’s latest album, Chaotic Neutral, made for an amazing show in the packed theatre. Helman is a special talent who is definitely going places. He and his band opened the night with a half-hour selection of songs. The three-piece ensemble produced a high-energy, powerful performance filled with youthful exuberance, yet with serious, thoughtful lyrics and short breaks of humorous banter between songs. The highlight of the set was either the melodic “Machine” from his debut album, Augusta, in which Helman laments the influence of smartphones and other technology on us as society, separating us under the guise of bringing us closer together, or the more upbeat and boppy “Bungalow,” which had the crowd out of their seats and dancing in the aisles. After a short intermission, Good came out and proceeded to absolutely bring the house down, despite some early technical difficulties with some effects pedals and patch cords, which actually turned into a nice little side plot in the story of the evening. “Load Me Up” from the 1999 album Beautiful Midnight, which opened the set, was the first signal that he’s still got at least some of the energy of the young, angst-filled musician he was 15 years ago, and he continued to exhibit that throughout the
rest of the night, playing a nice mix of older, heavier songs from his days with the Matt Good Band mixed with his newer, more mellow Matthew Good solo efforts. Good warmed and cooled the audience emotionally and energetically, shifting seamlessly – once the technical difficulties got sorted out – from frenetic and heavy to light and melodic. From his moody, sombre rendition of “Apparitions” (from 1998’s Underdogs) to his powerful, driving version of “Hello Time Bomb” (also from 1999’s Beautiful Midnight), along with a selection of songs from his newest album, released just last month, Good brought his A-game to the Tidemark Saturday, and gave those in attendance a show to remember for years to come. Check out this story at campbellrivermirror.com for a link to our photo gallery from Saturday’s show

Matthew Good (above) and Scott Helman (below) put on quite a show at the Tidemark Saturday night. From dancing in the aisles to Helman’s “Bungalow” to head-banging to Good’s 1999 hit “Hello Time Bomb,” the crowd at the Tidemark was treated to a memorable experience.

The Campbell River Community Foundation (CRCF) provides an opportunity for those who want to help their community.
The temperature of the grow room should be adjusted according to the types of plants you are raising. For example, summer vegetables and most flowers grow Christa Fernau best between 60º and 80º F. Winter vegetables like spinach and lettuce prefer temperatures of between 50º and 70º. Also, keep in mind that many crops prefer a lower temperature at night, often as much as 10º. Temperature is sometimes an easy basic to overlook. But if the temperatures in your grow room are either too low or too high, you’ll end up with abnormal development and reduced production.

Remember the instructions you receive on the airplane? When the oxygen masks drop from the ceiling, PUT YOURS on FIRST! The same advice applies to caregivers.

If you have a lot of readily accessible cash tucked away in tax-sheltered accounts, and you have drawn up a clear and viable Will naming an executor that has the time and acumen to wrap up your estate quickly, than you probably don’t Darlene Garat need life insurance. However, Financial Advisor it is rare that the surviving spouse or family or business has the benefit of a big pool of cash just sitting there. Assets of the deceased are typically held in RRSPs, pensions, and real estate. Life Insurance, and segregated funds (the latter are investments protected by the Insurance Act), are paid direct to the beneficiary soon after death and helping to replace lost income and cover final expenses such as funeral costs and taxes. Talk to a dual licensed financial advisor to determine what plan best suits your needs.

Most of the assets we transfer over seem to be either in DSC (deferred service charge) Darlene & Peter Garat schedules, or the institution is charging high account close out fees, or both. We have not used DSC for years due to the restrictive nature, but some advisors prefer it because of the high upfront commission. We lean towards LL, which does not take a bite out of your investments, and is gone is 2 – 3 years, not 7 – 8 as in the case of DSC. We also typically transfer over portfolios “inkind” whenever possible, which avoids paying out high DSCs, but many advisors prefer to transfer “in-cash” as they make a higher commission allocating from a clean slate. When you start with a new advisor it is always important to ask them about how they get paid, but equally important to ask about liquidity. Not just in case you transfer out, but in case you need to access your investments in time of emergency.

Baker’s appeal is universal 30 | CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR | WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2015
From a boy on his daddy’s farm to a Christian singer/songwriter, Trevor Baker shares his love for God through his down-to earth “new country” sound and inspiring lyrics. Stressing that his ministry is non-denominational, and not limited to Christian venues only, he also plays at fairs, festivals, schools and prisons. Many who would never darken a church door identify with Trevor’s music and lyrics. His soft voice and gentle manner complement his message of hope and encouragement. Trevor Baker will bring that message of hope and encouragement to the Discovery Community Church on Nov. 21 at 7 p.m. Baker has done well over 1,700 concerts in his 15 years of full time ministry. Prior to that there were several years of part time ministry; which included singing on street corners. God; in His own unique way, has placed Baker on many stages. Feeling undeserving of such opportunities
www.CampbellRiverMirror.com
Christian country singer/songwriter Trevor Baker performs at Discovery Community Church on Nov. 21.
he has shared his message with many people of influence; including the Prime Minister of Canada. Baker has also sang in the United States at David Wilkerson’s Times Square Church in New York City twice. After picking up the guitar in 1990, Baker went on to release 16 albums and 3 DVDs;
which have received airplay in Canada, and some in the United States, Europe ad other parts of the world. He has written and recorded over 170 songs to date. With much of the present church age running after every wind and wave of doctrine, most of the songs that God has given him are calling the church back to
repentance. Although he has won awards he finds that many times they only get in the way of the message. “There are many things in life that are uncertain,” he says. “I grew up thinking that God was one of them.” Baker admits openly that he was searching for some meaning in life. He didn’t like the angry young man that he was and felt that his life had no direction. During this time of crisis, Baker says that he met a “genuine, simple kinda’ preacher” in a little church who introduced him to Jesus Christ; the only one that could give him peace and direction. Presently living in Tuxford, Saskatchewan with his wife Jennifer, Baker takes time to reflect. “I now know that true happiness comes from knowing God and trusting in His plan for my life and family. I intend to sing songs for Him and Him alone; that I might bring the message of the Gospel to so many who are searching for Truth and stability in this old world.”

Storm get back on track For the Campbell River Storm it was a long week between games following a huge loss to the Victoria Cougars. They made the best of the seven days, practicing hard, and were well prepared going into a three game weekend. It would be three wins in three days. On Friday, the Storm dominated the Peninsula Panthers in North Saanich on their way to a 6-3 triumph. The following evening in Parksville, the Storm crushed the Generals 8-2. Back home for a Sunday afternoon return match with the Panthers, they closed off the weekend with a 5-3 victory. “Overall, I thought we played well over the whole weekend. We scored goals which we’ve struggled with at times,” said General Manager and Head Coach Lee Stone. “We got 19 on the weekend.” In Sunday’s victory

against Peninsula, the Storm struck early – just 59 seconds into the game – when Carter Hikichi rifled the puck past Alex Olson to make it 1-0 before appreciative fans at Rod Brind’Amour Arena. Hikichi, acquired from the Notre Dame Hounds, was the game’s first star. Despite dominating, and outshooting the Panthers 14-2, the Storm had to settle for a 1-0 lead at the end of the first. Peninsula, however, got back in the game by the two minute mark of the second period, scoring two quick ones. The Storm’s Gage Colpron, though, scored at the 2:27 mark and Campbell River never looked back. Four minutes later, Keenan Scardina made a beautiful move inside the blue line to side step his check before firing the puck into the back of the net. Late in the period, on the power play, Michal Holub

Campbell River got a late goal to extend the lead to 5-3. Colpron, streaking down the right wing, centred a hard pass to Alex Rosolowsky who deflected the puck up and under the crossbar.

line, Holub was moved to defence and fit in well in his new role. “Lubzy is loved in the room, he’s high energy and now that he’s on the back end, it gives us another dimension in terms of moving the puck,” Coach Stone said. Other goals on Friday came from Brett Witala and Christian Brandt. The strong weekend performance puts the Red and Black back into top spot in the VIJHL North Division, two points ahead of the Nanaimo Buccaneers with a game in hand. This sets up an important home and homes series with the Buccs starting Thursday in Nanaimo.

League,” WHL Commissioner Ron Robison said. “Del’s hockey accomplishments with the Regina Pats and Montreal Canadiens are legendary and he will be sorely missed by all of his friends in the WHL.” Wilson was a goaltender for the Regina Abbotts in 1945 and for the Regina Pats from 1946 to 1947, but began coaching minor hockey in Regina shortly after his playing career. Wilson aslo began his tenure as a Western Canadian scout for the Montreal Canadiens and remained with the organization for 47 years until he retired in
the Montreal Canadiens when he was appointed General Manager of the Regina Pats in 1955. Wilson sold his interest in the Regina Pats in 1980 ending a 25 year association with junior hockey in Regina but continued to serve as a scout in the Canadiens organization. He retired from the Canadiens in 1995 having served 47 years with Montreal in a scouting capacity. The WHL Goaltender of the Year is recognized annually with the Del Wilson Trophy in honour of Wilson’s extensive contributions to the WHL at both the Club and League levels. In 2005, Wilson was among the first ever recipients of the WHL Governors Award for outstanding contributions to the growth and development of the Western Hockey League. In 2010, Wilson was enshrined into the Saskatchewan Sports Hall of Fame. He was also active with Sequoia Springs golf course in Campbell River. Wilson was 88 years of age.

1995. During that time, the Canadiens won 18 Stanley Cups and Wilson earned a trio of Stanley Cup rings for his services. In 1956, Wilson assumed the role of General Manager for the Regina Pats and held the post until 1968. In 1970 Wilson led a group of investors to purchase the Regina Pats and the team quickly jumped back from the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League to the WHL. Wilson served as the General Manager and President of the Pats for six years during which he was also the WHL’s Chairman of the Board for a period of time. Under Wilson’s leadership, the Pats went on to win both WHL and Memorial Cup titles in 1974. Wilson continued to own the Pats until 1980 and also worked for the WHL as referee-in-chief from 1978 to 1980. The Regina Pats organization also express their regrets about the “legendary Regina Pats builder.” Wilson was a scout in Western Canada for

ampbell River resident Delbert “Del” Wilson passed away Thursday in Campbell River and received condolences from the junior hockey community throughout Western Canada. Among his many accomplishments, Wilson was co-founder of the Western Hockey League (WHL) and league officials expressed their sadness at his passing. Born in Craik, SK, Wilson was a driving force behind the creation of the Western Hockey League in 1966 along with Jim Piggott, Bill Hunter and Scotty Munro. Wilson was also instrumental in bringing the WHL, Ontario Hockey League and Quebec Major Junior Hockey League together to form what is known today as the Canadian Hockey League. “As one of our cofounders, all of us at the WHL will always be indebted to Del for the vision and leadership he displayed in establishing the Western Hockey
