A housing project that has helped eradicate homelessness in Medicine Hat, Alta. is being launched in Williams Lake. “Medicine Hat is claiming they essentially ended homelessness in their community and they did it in five years using this approach,” said Anne Burrill who is managing the federally funded Housing First Planning Project. “We wanted people to know it’s happening in our community as well.” Canadian Mental Health homelessness worker Wayne Lucier is part of the Homelessness and Housing Committee in Williams Lake that will advise on the project. “Our obstacle in Williams Lake is lack of affordable housing,” Lucier said. “Most people I work with cannot afford rent and some of those are people earning minimum wage.” Lucier said the government needs to provide more subsidies and the problem in Williams Lake is the fact that as each low rental building’s mortgage is paid up, the owner is no longer eligible for subsidies. “We had that happen with the Cariboo Friendship Society and in one or two years the same thing will happen at Cariboo Sunset Manor,” Lucier said, noting the majority of tenants are seniors or people with disabilities. Between March 2014 and April 2015, he worked with 111 new homeless clients, another 300 were repeat customers, but 100 of those were actually couch surfing and staying with friends.

THE WIDER WORLD
Your Preschooler and… the Wider World
Preschool children are naturally curious about the world - about where they live and the people around them. Supporting a sense of wonder and appreciation for the natural world and the people in it is important to your preschool child. It helps them to become good citizens. Your own curiosity, more than your knowledge, will encourage your child’s interest in the wider world. Preschoolers enjoy helping in day-to-day activities of their families. For example, by including opportunities to assist with household chores they see how they are a valuable contributor in their family. As children are provided opportunities to care for their environments (e.g. gardening, cleaning, recycling, water conservation, etc.) they will develop an understanding of how their own actions may affect nature and the planet. Talk to your child about different ways they can take care of the planet. During the preschool years, children start to develop an understanding of rules and behaviours. Help your child to begin understanding fairness to themselves and others through your conversation with them and by your example. B.C. is very culturally diverse – some families are new to B.C., while other families have lived here for many generations, including a rich history of Aboriginal people. Your preschool child will benefit from opportunities to learn about their own heritage and culture and the culture of others.

Housing First needs community engagement Continued From Page A1 “This time of year we see people moving into the city from outlying communities because of the lack of necessities,” Lucier said. “Tomorrow I am meeting with someone who is still living in his camper.” Lucier has a storage container that ebbs and flows with donations he uses to help homeless people when they move into a place. He receives calls daily from peo-
ple needing tables, chairs, couches and beds. There are also people coming into his office looking for winter boots and socks, if anybody has any to donate. “There’s the little things people don’t think about like shampoo and soap,” Lucier added. “If you’ve got those little packages from hotels piling up drop them off to me or at the Friendship Society.” Burrill and Lucier are hopeful the community will become Christ Centered Family Focused
Sunday School Sunday Morning Sunday Afternoon Wednesday Try some of these with your preschooler: To encourage care of the earth: 1. Go for neighbourhood nature walks; take turns pointing out interesting things to each other such as birds, cloud formations, trees, and green spaces. 2. Preschoolers love to collect things. Bring along a container when you go outdoors so your child can collect treasures along the way – seeds, leaves, rocks – and bring them home to examine. 3. At the grocery store, help your child point out items that can be recycled (like cans or cardboard boxes) and show items that are made of recycled materials (like paper products). Help them make artwork and crafts using recycled materials. Actively recycle at home. 4. Encourage help with household chores if your child is interested. Tearing lettuce, folding clothes, making beds and setting the table may be work for you, but these tasks can be fun for your preschooler — and will set patterns for responsible behaviour as they grow up. 5. Help your children understand where food comes from. Show them food being grown in neighbourhood gardens or at local farms, orchards, or greenhouses. To encourage an understanding of diversity: 1. Attend a variety of community events that are taking place near your home. 2. When talking about diversity, point out human similarities first, then help your child appreciate people’s differences. You could say, “everybody needs food, shelter and love, but people have different ways of doing things. Our family’s way is just one way.” 3. Encourage your child to consider other’s feelings. You could ask your child, “what do you think it would feel like if other children would not let you play?” To encourage understanding of culture: 1. Explore your child’s own culture through stories and song, food and celebration. 2. Find an opportunity to introduce and appreciate other cultures. You could visit the library and find and read books about other cultures and cultural celebrations or listen to music from different cultures: French, Latin, Indian raga, Aboriginal drumming, etc. Local libraries have a great selection of multi-cultural music.

We need to move beyond managing and serving homeless people, and focus on ending homelessness all together.” - Anne Burrill, Housing First Planning Project manager engaged in the Housing First project. “It’s been said a million times if you house people then the overall costs for a community will go down,” Lucier said. In about eight to 10 months Burrill will be looking for landlords with a social conscious who might be willing to provide affordable housing. Burrill’s position
as social development manager with the City of Williams Lake was discontinued in January when the newly-elected city council eliminated eight positions to save money. Still passionate to continue the work she’d started at the city, Burrill worked with other community groups to apply for funding and Fraser

When Williams Lake resident Kurtis Olson turns 18 on Feb. 10 he hopes he will be back in school and his foot will be totally healed. In March Kurtis had routine surgery at Children’s Hospital to remove a bunion, but since then has undergone several surgeries because of an infection, with the latest surgeries involving a bone and skin graft that left him with 60 stitches on his hip. Kurtis is so glad to be home finally, although he must keep his foot elevated at all times. Throughout his ordeal, the outpouring of many people in the community has been a bright light for his family. “This community, our friends and family have been overwhelming,” said his mother Kim Couture. “We cannot thank people enough.” One of the highlights for Kurtis was when a care package from Lake
City Secondary School students full of cards and some brain teaser toys arrived at the hospital. “It was different to hear from so many kids,” Kurtis said. “At school I keep to myself with a few select friends but now more kids know me than I know. It was fun to read all the comments in the letters.” Another special surprise came when Rick Hansen visited Kurtis in the hospital for an hour. “It was a comfortable warm conversation,” Kurtis said. The visit transpired because Hansen was at Mountview school visiting the students and principal Rick Miller told him about Kurtis being in the hospital in Vancouver. “He was bragging about the track records Kurtis broke when he was a student there,” Kim said, noting Miller also gave Hansen some photographs of Kurtis when he was a student at the school to take with him when he vis-

DFO genetics need altering The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced last week that genetically-modified salmon are approved for human consumption. If genetically-modified salmon are now good to go, the question begs itself: What is wrong with wild salmon? Why do we approve genetically-modified anything that freely swims in the wild, but yet, cannot be harvested in sufficient numbers to sustain our workers, our canneries or our economy. No, this is just another example of why the government agency, seemingly in charge, (the Canadian Department of Fisheries and Oceans) that must be re-sequenced. In fact, like this new Frankensalmon, their very organizational DNA needs to be altered. They have been, either through underfunding, under-education or inaction, asleep at the wheel while communities and fisheries along every coast in Canada goes over the cliff. They were responsible for the collapse of the cod fishery on the east coast and are quickly
becoming the stewards of the eradication of a viable west coast salmon fishery. The recent salmon cannery closing in Prince Rupert falls on the doorstep of, not only the DFO, but also the federal and provincial governments. It’s not a lack of salmon, but a lack of political common sense. These are our fish, they are wild and they can be plentiful. Allow wild salmon ranching where egg mortality rates increase and fingerlings can be protected just long enough to increase stocks to the legendary status that Alaskan fisheries have found and stop allowing virtual monopolies, to dictate where local fish are processed. And finally, get DFO staff out of their offices and into boats to do true scientific research. Our fish, our processing, our stewardship. It’s in our DNA. Not with some bureaucrat who thinks salmon stocks can be better managed in a laboratory or an office building in Ottawa.

Why should everyone care about animal care? Recently, I attended a field day and workshop put on by the BC Cattlemen’s Association. It is part of a project to see what are the best ways to serve the needs and wants of ranchers with respect to getting new or updated technology and knowledge. The buzzword is “technology transfers.” Really knowledge, both new and traditional, is part of the technology we use in our ranching businesses. This particular session was at the Bar K Ranch near Prince George. The manager of the ranch is a young man in his 30s, Taylor Grafton, who is following in his father footsteps as ranch manager. He is working on his Masters of Science degree from Texas A and M University, which is a reputed institution in agriculture educa-

The two other presenters were researchers from Agrifood Canada and the Western Beef Development Centre, both in Saskatchewan. A lot of good information was presented based on work done mostly in Saskatchewan but applicable here. Taylor had just recently — before the first snow — harvested some green feed: green oats planted late, so not mature as grain but nutritious. Because the frosts had come and quick froze his crop, they would be able to be like oat hay, only fresher, like food in a deep freeze. It was cut into a windrow, much as hay would be
for baling. The cattle would do the rest of the “harvesting” by picking it up in the windrow and eating it directly. Saving on fossil fuel you would say. Yes but there is another reason, according to Taylor for serving up all the cow’s winter feed on a platter so to speak. That reason is found in Taylor’s field of study and the topic of his thesis: Ethology, the study of animal behaviour. If the cows are happier, being foragers by nature, they will be more content out there foraging. Remember the adage “contented cows give more milk?” Well, happier cows out foraging on their own are “happier” and are less stressed, and are healthier. It is not just nutrition that drives our “feeding practices,” says Taylor,
it is letting cows be cows, not just some penned animal destined to be food. We have many European visitors who come to help on the ranch. When they see North American cattle out on bio-diverse pastures, those with lots of different grasses, forbs (flowering plants), shrubs and trees, the first thing they say is happy cows. I guess they are. Of course the market place (consumers) also want to know their food was well cared for during its life.

Lights out for opponents of Site C The fall session of the B.C. legislature petered out two days early last week, as the ruling B.C. Liberals and the opposition NDP agreed to turn out the energy-efficient lights and head for home. NDP leader John Horgan skipped the last day and headed to the B.C. Institute of Technology campus in Burnaby. There he announced “PowerBC,” billed as the NDP’s “bold, progressive plan for the future of B.C. energy, with a strong focus on jobs.” Reporters asked, how many jobs? Horgan said retrofitting public buildings and homes for energy efficiency would create jobs all around the province, but he can’t say how many. How much does the plan cost, and does it include subsidizing homeowners to fix their windows and insulation? “The costing will be more apparent when we get closer to the election,” Horgan replied. Whatever the cost, the NDP plan apparently rests on the assumption that the $9 billion Site C dam project on the Peace River can be stopped by an NDP government after the 2017 election. That money would be used to build wind and solar generation, and to install a sixth and final water turbine at Revelstoke dam. The chances of Site C being stopped are approaching zero. Construction of an access road started two months ago, site clearing and work camp construction a month before that. Energy Minister Bill Bennett says the main

dam construction contract will be let shortly, followed by the powerhouse contract next year. Horgan said remaining legal challenges could slow or stop the project. The West Moberly and Prophet River First Nations have lost their case against Site C twice, in the B.C. Supreme and Federal Courts, and are appealing. The Doig River and McLeod Lake Indian Bands dropped their challenges, and McLeod Lake’s construction company has started work on a Site C contract. West Moberly Chief Roland Willson staged a dramatic protest at the legislature last spring, bringing a cooler of frozen bull trout from a river below the two existing Peace dams, telling media they were too contaminated with mercury to eat. Flooding land for hydro dams does elevate methylmercury levels in water, but BC Hydro provided me with the latest study that included fish samples collected by West Moberly members. It shows
average methylmercury levels remain below federal guidelines for limiting consumption of commercially sold fish. It’s an odd coincidence that Willson suddenly made this claim, 47 years after the first Peace dam was completed, when he happened to be in court trying to stop Site C. A coalition of U.S. and Canadian environment groups is also demanding that Site C be stopped, using typical arguments to appeal to their low-information donor base. According to the Sierra Club
and others, Site C is not renewable energy because the (largely idle) farmland it floods is a “carbon sink.” Forests do store carbon, albeit temporarily, but farmland where the trees have been cleared? This is gluten-free gobbledegook. They also trot out the claim that Site C will be used to power liquefied natural gas operations. Most proponents so far have said they will use gas for LNG processing, and if they don’t have hydro available for ancillary power, they will have to burn more gas.
BC Hydro has just finished its latest grid upgrade, a second highvoltage transmission line from Merritt to Coquitlam. It adds disaster reliability to the system that brings power from the Peace and Columbia dams to the Lower Mainland. If you’re arguing that hydroelectricity isn’t renewable power, you’ve already lost. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

MUSIC TO A COWBOY’S EARS

Braised turkey drumsticks a delicious Christmas delight In one month from now the presents will have been opened and Santa will have gone back to the North Pole for a little rest before he gets busy again. Perhaps you will still have some turkey along with a carcass left over so you can continue the Christmas food spirit in your home by making a delicious soup, comfort food to help wind down a little from the excitement of the season. Before you get too close to Dec. 25 make a list of goodies you will need from the grocery store for the Christmas dinner feast. I suspect a turkey would be the item to go first on the shopping list. Maybe a nice ham, or a nice beef rib roast of top quality. How about a pork tenderloin, instead of the gobbler? Not everyone has a turkey for Christmas dinner.
Ken’s Country Kitchen
with Ken Wilson
Then a list would need some vegetables, and don’t forget sweet potatoes. Something for a nice vegetable salad is a ‘for sure’ on the dinner menu. So many ways to make a nice salad that will compliment your meal and of course you will need some veggies for appetizers with a
tasty dip. You may also need some vegetables to add to the main course or to use in the stuffing of your turkey, if that what is gracing your table for this meal. Cranberry sauce is also a must on my list, and it is not hard to make from scratch. Christmas dinner is one of the big meals of the year and it is more difficult to complete the meal you desire for family and friends, if you have forgotten something necessary items. You can always ‘make do’ but it is so much nicer to have everything you need on hand when you start preparing and cooking the Christmas dinner. I’m jumping the gun a little bit by presenting a turkey recipe right now when we’ll mostly all be eating more of the bird in a couple of weeks. My most favorite part of
the turkey is the drumsticks and thighs. Yup, the dark meat is the best according to my taste buds. I first tasted this recipe years ago and recently found it when I was doing a little cleaning of my files. Braised Turkey Drumsticks • One tbsp olive oil • Two turkey drumsticks or thighs • Two tbsp seasoned flour • Garlic to taste • One small onion minced • One-quarter cup red wine • One-cup tomato puree • One-half tsp oregano • One-half cup chicken broth • One bay leaf • One-quarter tsp red pepper flakes • One tbsp minced Italian parsley Pasta of your choice…angel hair was used when I first tried
this gourmet gobbler dish. Heat oil in large pan. Dust turkey with flour. Add turkey to pan and brown on all sides, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and onions and saute two to three minutes. Add red wine. Scrape up any browned bits in pan. Add tomato puree, oregano, chicken broth, bay leaf, olives and red pepper flakes. Cover pan tightly and cook over low heat 1 1/2 hours. Sprinkle with parsley and season with pepper. Remove bay leaf. Remove turkey from pan. Add pasta and coat with sauce. Don’t forget to make a Christmas meal list soon. Bye for now and GOOOD COOKING!

6 things I’ve learned An open letter to the future me A short while ago my wife and I had a good ole chin wag about “people born in 1992.” Unfortunately, when the reality of age comes sharply into view, things can get way out of hand. That beard-stroking moment brought about the end of a perfectly fine evening and short of rolling on the floor with my thumb in my mouth, I have to say I wasn’t a pretty sight for 2 minutes (my wife might suggest it was significantly longer). Many things crossed my mind while I was writhing on the floor in mental anguish. Although a good night’s sleep sorted out all that malarkey, getting older did give me some food for thought. So as Gandalf in training, I’ve decided to share with you 6 things I’ve learnt since 1992. 1. Christian people are sometimes cruel: I am always surprised at how much venom there is in churches. As a teenager I remember passionately loving my church and wanting to serve my community. Sadly, I found that in order to do this, I had to wrestle some guy who valued power more than love. The frustration got so difficult for him that one day he went Kung Fu on me. I have to admit, as a kid I was a bit ridiculous
PARSONS PEN
BY JOEL DUNTIN sometimes, but is that a reason to bring out the nunchucks? The world, in general, could do with less of this. Actually it is imperative. 2. Friendships are hard. I have lost a few: There’s a truck load of people I wish I invested more into. I’ve lost friends for stupid reasons and was guilt-ridden because if it. One day after eating an omelette... I remember it well... it was a Tuesday... I think there was cheese involved… I had this moment of clarity where I asked myself, “Why are you chasing approval?” It was incredibly freeing and has since opened wonderful new opportunities for
people to come into my life. 3. I love my wife: I remember when I first met my wife. Before her I was ridiculous at relationships and would certainly be classed as “a suspicious fella.” God’s such a romantic. 4. Facebook extremists: Do religious folk have nothing better to do than endorse inappropriate posts about people who are different? Some of the warmest, most loving people I know are atheists, lesbians, Muslims, secret ‘erb smoking Rastafarians. I love them. I still love Jesus. In fact, that is how Jesus rolled. The Bible is full of that stuff. 5. Smile a little more: My wife keeps reminding me of this. 6. LOVE: I simply love my family. I love the new people I meet. I love hearing their stories. I love this community of ours. I love that we don’t always have the answers. I love that God is at the forefront of everything we do. I love our Facebook extremists and our venomous friends. They make me realize so much about the amazing and loving character of Jesus. Inspired by: Matthew 22:3539.

Nesika students learn to make and play drums Grade 6 students at école Nesika Elementary had the opportunity recently to make drums from start to finish, says principal Yvonne Davis. Mike Case of 100 Mile House taught the classes. The students started
with raw hide, and participated in each step of the creation of three hand drums and one pow wow drum. The lessons culminated with a drum blessing ceremony at the school. “The drums now reside at the school
and the students are eager to incorporate their use in their classrooms,” Davis said. “Nesika thanks the First Nation Education Department of School District 27 for supporting this cultural learning opportunity.”

the Memory Book and a moment of silence. The commemoration concludes with a community luminary service and the lighting of the Memory Tree outside city hall at 4:30 p.m. Everyone is invited whether you are there to remember a loved one and purchase an ornament in their name or simply to celebrate the season.

Can you believe only four weeks from today is Christmas (wow, has that ever come fast!) Now that it has been snowing I think that we are all starting to get festive and think of the holidays! Well, have you done your Christmas shopping? We have a small community out here but there are lots of great gift ideas and stuff right here to do almost all of your holiday shopping! You can purchase gift certificates from the Anvil Pub and that someone on your list can have a yummy dinner. You can get a gift certificate from the Motel so a friend can stay for a visit here in Horsefly anytime of the year if you don’t have enough room at home As well, Angela can do up a certificate for a hair cut at her hair shack! Marc and Julie and their staff can help you out at the gas station with lots of great gift stuff: automotive goodies, gift cards, and you can get Julie to do up a gift certificate for a tune up on your vehicle! Stop off at Clarkes Store and pick up a special bottle of wine, make some hot wine and maybe do some pond skating over the Holidays! Then over to the Hardware store to see Katherine. I know for sure you can find great stuff there: toys and games for the kids, jewelry and trinkets for the ladies, fishing gear and tools for the guys, as well as a great selection of Horsefly Clothing. She can also do you up a gift certificate so someone on your list can pick out whatever they want! Suzanne from the salon has lots of hair products for sale as well as gift certificates for haircuts, colours, perms, manicures, and pedicures! Even the post office

Great Food. Lots of Fun. Join • Daily Drink and Food Specials • Let Us Host Your Special Event! • Friendly Staff
Only 4 weeks until Christmas! has a great selection of gift cards. You might want to get a really different gift for someone this year (totally special). You should call Shirley Janzen from Cariboo Slideshows and have her do up a power point video from your photos with animations and music; this makes an amazing gift for someone to have at Christmas - a Grandparent or someone special that you can’t be with over the Holidays would love this. Give Shirley a call today at 250-620-3328. Cariboo Country Inn can do up a gift certificate as well for next season so you can enjoy some time in a cabin or camp along Horsefly Lake with your family and friends! We also have many people out here in our community who sell crafts and knitted gifts as well as local honey and jams. Check out the Farmers Market on Saturdays always goodies there! The farmers market will go until Saturday December 12th, then will star up again in February. Month of December in Horsefly for the Anvil Pub: Poker on the 5th and 12th and Christmas
Buffet on the 19th with Open Mic night that night as well. Horsefly seniors group will be having their Seniors Dinner on the 15th of December. The Womens Institute has their invitation only luncheon on the 5th of December, this is their big fundraiser that they do every year for the bursaries for the students of Horsefly. On the 12th of December is the Old Fashioned Christmas event at the Community Hall with Dinner and a visit from Santa as well as sleigh rides to follow! Well, it will be a busy four weeks between now and Christmas for us all, so remember try to shop local wherever you are and as much as you can support the small merchants to keep our little communities alive! Be careful on the roads and enjoy spending time with your friends and families over the holidays. There will be one more Horsefly Happenings before next year so until then-Cheers!

Film club screens Bicycling with Moliere Krista Liebe Special to Tribune/Advisor It is time for the next film from the Williams Lake Film Club. Only two to go before Christmas! On Tuesday, Dec. 1 we will show a French film, Bicycling with Molière. This film is quite new, 2013, but had only a limited release in North America. You are some of the few who actually get to see it. It was really filmed on Ile de Ré off the coast of France, where the action takes place. Languages are French and Italian, with English subtitles. It runs for 104 minutes and is rated PG and is more a comedy than a drama. The film is directed by Philippe Le Guay, who together with one of the main actors, Fabrice Luchini, is also the writer.

The Williams Lake Film Club will screen Bicycling with Moliere on Tuesday, Dec. 1. Funds raised by the film club help to provide tutoring for students who need extra help with their studies. This film is not at all depressing, but very interesting and fun. Bicycling with Molière centres on two renowned French actors, Fabrice Luchini and Lambert Wilson who play actors in the film as well. Serge, however, who once was a great actor has retired from the limelight. Too much pressure meant that one day he simply decided he would act no more. For the past three years, he has lived in solitude on the Ile de Ré, spending his time
cycling through the windswept landscape and thinking of renovating his run down cottage. And he is grumpy. Gauthier on the other hand is a handsome actor who plays a cosmetic surgeon on a popular and highly paid nighttime soap opera. When Gauthier (Lambert Wilson) visits Serge to convince him to join him in a production of Molière’s theatre play The Misanthrope, a battle of wits ensues over who will play the lead role of Alceste.
They both think it only can be, well, him. These actors not only come from different show business worlds but also seemingly from different planets, and now the stage is set. Between rehearsals the two bike along the windswept beaches, rival for the affection of a beautiful Italian divorcée and offer advice to an aspiring porn actress. This film has it all, it is warm and funny. The location is beautiful, and it is intelligent and literate. It is

fascinating to watch these two great actors battle it out, to observe the changes in their characters and their friendship, discussing such topics as ego, rivalry and love. As the Los Angeles Times said, this is a critic’s pick — and great fun. Bicycling with Molière will be shown at the Gibraltar Room starting at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 1. Back doors open at 6:30 p.m. Admission at the door is $9, for film club members $8, and $6 for seniors (65+ and students).

A crew of local backcountry enthusiasts hike to a peak in search of some fresh lines in the Cariboo Mountains east of Horsefly during the weekend.
Backcountry junkies find winter solitude Greg Sabatino Staff Writer A combination of perfect snow, weather and timing led to a backcountry reunion in the Cariboo Mountains for a group of powder junkies last weekend. Celebrating their birthdays on the same day Nov. 23, Colin Labelle and John Wellburn, along with a group of friends, packed up their gear and headed east of Horsefly for some early-season skiing and snowboarding. It’s an area the group has been exploring for many years, and was originally introduced to them by local backcountry enthusiasts Flip Blake and Mark Savard. For Wellburn, who’s spent his last 10 winters in Argentina, the weekend provided his first chance to slap on a snowboard in three metres of fresh snow during that time, and reconnect with the winter season and friends for the group’s annual birthday tradition into the backcountry. “The snow there is the
first place you can go skiing around here,” Wellburn said. “I haven’t been here for the past 10 years so I was stoked, and the snow was incredible.”’ Wellburn, 36, helped build a safety cabin when he was introduced to the area at 16 years old. Labelle, meanwhile, moved to Williams Lake in 2000 and has been hooked on the freedom the backcountry provides around Williams Lake. “It’s just self propelled,” Labelle said of the sport. “There’s so much reward after climbing the mountain. You have to earn your turns. No crowd, no lift lines, no people.” The remote wilderness area is only accessible by snowmobile. Once at a certain elevation, skiers put climbing skins on their skis and hike for their runs. “You get fresh powder every single turn,” Labelle said. “I don’t even like to cross my buddies’ tracks when I’m skiing with them.” Flip, his brother Rod

Tuesday, Dec. 8 Banff Mountain Film Festival
Colin Labelle (left) and Chris Masters hike in the Cariboo Mountains as they prepare to ski and snowboard in the backcountry east of Horsefly. Blake and longtime friend, Don Stanchfield, discovered the area, roughly 50 to 75 kilometres east of Horsefly, in the early 1980s. “In the beginning there was very little alpine tour-
ing gear,” Blake said. “We had leather boots and skinny skis.” Blake was a cross-country skier and was introduced to a telemark turn — a skiing technique involving a free
heel and a distinct lunging motion to make turns — by one of his friends, Blair Smith. See ADVENTURE Page A23

freedom, the openness, the lack of people, the challenge of getting up the hill and the camaraderie with your friends — it’s just a whole different thing.” Labelle estimated in the Williams Lake area upwards of 40 people take to the backcountry for winter thrills. “There’s a huge posse,” he said, noting in the future he hopes some day an official ski touring club could be formed locally. “There’s one based out of Quesnel, the Cariboo Ski Touring Club, that has big numbers and club fees. It could happen here and it would be nice to get a club and be stakeholders in that area for parks and rec.” Currently, the group operates under the banner of the Williams Lake Cross Country Ski Club as a backcountry division, he said. Wellburn, meanwhile, couldn’t have been happier about how the week-
end’s birthday celebration and his reunion with backcountry skiing went. “It was quite the success, for sure,” he said. “The fact there’s just a few of you out there and you can choose your own adventures ... we’ve been up there for years so we know the lines, how to get into them and we know they’re safe.” After 10 years away from the snow, Wellburn said he didn’t miss a beat. “With sports, sometimes, you take a break and you come back even stronger,” he said. Labelle also stressed the importance of taking avalanche safety training before venturing into the backcountry. “It’s not something you want to go do by yourself,” Labelle said. “It’s good to get under someone’s wing and try it.” Avalanche Safety Training courses levels one and two cost roughly $200. More information is available at www.avalanche.ca.
Trails at Bull Mountain open for ski season Things are gliding along smoothly for the Williams Lake Cross Country Ski Club. Williams Lake Cross Country Ski Club communications director Kirsty Gartshore said club groomers are working hard getting the trails at Bull Mountain ready to ski. “It looks like most of the hill is packed, not track set, except for Boot Hill and Canyon View,” Gartshore said. “The snow has settled out to a three-inch base
in the open and a little less on the tree edge and sheltered areas.” The club has opened the gate at Bull Mountain Ski Area and the trails are skiable, she said, noting the road has been plowed and the parking lot was expected to be fully plowed late this week. The lights will also be turned on for those wanting to enjoy night skiing. For more on the club and for updates visit www.bullmountain.ca.

Judo members gain experience A trio of Williams Lake Judo Club members threw their weight around last weekend at a judo tournament in Steveston. Brian Marshall and his sons, Liam and Sean, attended. “Brian has been out of judo for at least 10 years and is keen to compete again and his
kids are also keen,” said WLJC Sensei Jeff DiMarco. “It was a great experience for them all.” Brian finished the tournament with two wins and a loss, Sean won one and lost three and Liam, a yellow belt, was defeated in all four of his matchups. “Every tournament
you learn something, especially when you don’t win,” DiMarco said. “You go home and rethink and regroup and hopefully come out great guns at the next tournament.” DiMarco said up to eight WLJC members will be attending a tournament in Burnaby on Dec. 5.

Junior hoops tourney coming to lakecity Greg Sabatino Staff Writer If Bella Coola organizers have their way, Williams Lake will be flooded with basketball players this spring. Roughly 40 to 50 teams are expected to converge from March 13-18 when the Junior All Native Basketball Tournament arrives in the lakecity. “We put in a bid against nine other communities to host it and were chosen,” said one of the tournament’s directors, Roger Harris. “There will be, with parents and managers, about 22 people per team in Williams Lake.” Harris, who lives in Bella Coola, has been involved with the tournament for roughly the past 20 years as his children participated in the annual event. Two divisions, junior boys and junior girls aged 14-17, will be contested at the tournament. “Last year’s tournament was in Nanaimo. The year before was Kamloops,” he said. “Hopefully the tour-
nament will bring some revenue to Williams Lake and it may open some eyes for other
communities in the area.” Harris and the organizing committee of the
non-profit society putting on the tournament are looking for sponsorship.

VIEWPOINTS
Respecting the gifts of family, friends and food Do we really need one more article about eating well over the holidays? Yes. Especially one that points out that
healthy eating isn’t necessarily the same thing as nutritious eating. Healthy eating goes beyond preventing heart
disease, getting enough of a vitamin, or having a healthy weight. Food plays an honoured role as a centerpiece at
holiday time. This is when friends and family gather, share stories, and strengthen or renew bonds.
We feast – not just on food, but on each other’s company and energy. So this is no time for a ‘diet’ mentality. And yet it’s
also not the time to take life and health lightly, but to respect the gifts we have. How can we eat respectfully, while cel-

ebrating and enjoying? Provide lots of healthy options. I’m a monkeysee-monkey-eat kind of person. If I see healthy stuff, I’ll eat it. I’ve found this to be true of young and old alike. A platter or two of colourful veggies with dip gives everyone something other than treats to keep their hands and mouth occupied. Carbonated water is a wonderful replacement for some of the pop and juices typically used as a mixer for drinks and punch. Mix salted nuts half and half with unsalted nuts. Keep a bowl filled with mandarin oranges. I could make a longer list, but you get the idea. Manage the abundance of treats. Once again, the monkey-seemonkey-eat habit comes into play. Have smaller plates of treats out at certain times of the day and put them out of sight the rest of the time. Since I like to have one piece of everything, instead of putting all of the treat choices on the plate, try putting just two or three out at one time and switching them up at another time. Tiny servings let us try a variety of treats without overindulging -- over the years I find I am cutting my Nanaimo bars into one inch squares and making smaller cookies. Eat mindfully. We can get so enthralled by the fun our taste buds are having that we forget to enjoy the evening and the people. If we ignore how our body feels and overstuff ourselves, we can end up regretting it later. I remind myself (and my dad) that leftovers are just as delicious. Get moving. Try getting involved in cleaning up. Moving around is much better than sitting around after a big meal. It helps with blood sugar and triglyceride levels after a big meal and it gives me a chance to make some plates of leftoversto-go for the guests. If you think about it, those of us that struggle with overindulgence at holiday time are so lucky. Enjoy the feast of family, friends, fun and food this holiday season. What a gift to have.
