Grassroots ‘done waiting’ for housing solutions after death Vigil planned for Dec. 21 ‘to honour those who are gone’ Mike Davies

Campbell RiveR miRRoR

The volunteers of Grassroots Kind Hearts, a volunteer-based initiative to feed dinner to the homeless of Campbell River, say they are “done waiting” for a plan from government to address the problem after the death of one of their friends. Colin Drake, 24, died after choosing to stay with his partner in the cold rather than being separated to get space in the cold weather shelter downtown, according to Krissandra Rufus, who began the Grassroots Kind Hearts initiative. Drake was her cousin, and he’s the fourth relative she’s lost in recent years, including her brother. Yes, he struggled with addictions issues, but by many accounts, “he was very nice,” Rufus says, solemnly, remembering her cousin. “Very respectful.” “People don’t see behind the scenes until something like this happens,” says Kathy Lance, who has taken on the role of collecting community donations for the group. “They walk around with their blinders on.” The blinders came off for many, Continued on Pg. 3

Campbell River added its voice to the rallying cry against global climate change on Sunday. It was the day before 195 coun-

tries from around the world sat down to discuss how to combat global warming. Around 150 people descended on Spirit Square Sunday to take part in a People’s Climate March, which was hosted by the Council of Cana-

dians and the Quadra Island chapter of the Sierra Club. The rally was held in conjunction with other similar events in cities and towns around the world, on the eve of the historic United Nations conference on climate change tak-

ing place in Paris. The meeting, known as the 21st Conference of Parties, is bringing together more than 100 heads of government in an effort to draft an international agreement to reduce

Shelter: Group pursues its own solution

From Pg. 1

however, when it was reported that a Gibsons man died Nov. 14 while the shelter in his community was closed. He was 56-year-old Harry Paul, and he was found on a park bench while the shelter in Sechelt was closed because it was only receiving funding to be open during “extreme weather.” After Paul’s death and the public outcry that resulted, Housing Minister Rich Coleman released a statement saying the shelter would be receiving an additional $40,000 to be open every night – regardless of weather conditions – until the end of March. Even that might not be a solution for Campbell River, however. The shelter was open and only five of the 16 beds in the shelter were taken the night Drake

died on the street. “They won’t allow couples to stay together when they go to the shelter,” Rufus says. “And that is a big thing, because if they have someone they love that they’re with, they’re going to feel more safe…I know a lot of them stay out there (in the cold) because they can’t be with who they want to be with when they go to the shelter. There needs to be something for couples.” Paul Mason, program manager for Campbell River Housing Resource Services – a program of Campbell River Family Services Society, who operate the shelter – agrees that the “no couples” issue is a barrier, but that it’s a stipulation BC Housing sets on the shelter, and they have to abide by it. Rufus says some of the people on the street have also been incarcer-

ated in the past or have emotional scars from past-life issues that make them feel unsafe when they’re alone. “To them, those (shelter spaces) feel like jail cells.” But the group isn’t pointing fingers or assigning fault. What they are doing is trying to find another solution for those who won’t or can’t make use of the available shelter space. And they’re in a hurry. The cold is here, and it’s only going to get colder. “We’ve been looking around at places, and it’s not easy,” Rufus says. “There’s so much red tape along the way,” Lance says, “and while that’s being dealt with, people are dying.” Their idea is to secure a house of some kind and call it “Grassroots Kind Hearts Comfy Beginnings,” says Rufus. If the homeless had an address

they could call home, the group says, they’d be able to receive the “rental portion” of their assistance – people with no fixed address can’t get support money for rent – which would pay for the ownership and operation of the home. It won’t be a permanent solution for the individuals who live there, but a “stepping stone,” kind of situation, much like the “halfway house model” used for released inmates who are transitioning back into society. “We would also like to put in place ways to show them how to live inside, teach them the ropes and how to manage their money,” says Rufus, as well as connecting them to other services within the community – such as mental health services or addictions counselling – to help them get back on track. Until they can secure

a location, however, the group says they will just keep doing what they can to make their friends on the street more comfortable, which means continuing to gather donations of warm clothes and blankets and making sure people are fed, thanks to the generosity of the community. Mason says he is continuing to work with Grassroots Kind Hearts and anyone else who is concerned about this issue, but it’s a complex problem that won’t be solved overnight. “We need to keep making positive steps,” Mason says. “It was a tragedy that we lost that young man, and no one’s turning a blind eye to that. “We need to work towards solutions and work with all levels of government to make sure we’re all working towards the same goal,

greenhouse gas emissions and slow down the effects of climate change. Participants in Campbell River’s rally Sunday showed up in force, complete with signs, placards and costumes such as a big purple whale, to celebrate the conference and urge governments to take action. The event opened with a prayer from Darren Blaney, before newlyelected North Island MP Rachel Blaney took the stage. She relayed a discussion with her son that

really hit home the potential dangers of climate change. “My youngest son said to me, ‘Mom, I was watching a show today that said if we don’t do something about the climate, that for every three breaths of air that we take today, there will only be enough oxygen for us to take two,’” said Blaney, who wants to see industry and environmentalists work in harmony. “I’m so tired of this conversation about economy or environment,” Blaney said. “We need to be having a conversation

Passing lane to alleviate driver frustration MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

rivers travelling between Campbell River and Port Hardy will have another opportunity to pass slower-moving traffic in the coming years, Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure Todd Stone announced at the lookout point just past the old Catalyst pulp and paper mill just north of Campbell River Nov. 26. “Highway 19 is a key corridor for goods movement here on Vancouver Island,” Stone said at the announcement, pointing out that the stretch is becoming “increasingly busy” with both commercial and recreational traffic. Stone said there are an average of 2,000 vehicles driving between Sayward and Campbell River every day, “and around 15 per cent of those vehicles are slower moving vehicles, whether they be commercial or recreational

in nature.” Highway 19 from Campbell River to Port Hardy was ranked the second most dangerous stretch of highway on Vancouver Island in an ICBC report earlier this year, which examined the number of fatalities from motor vehicle accidents from 2004 to 2013. “One of the single greatest frustrations that motorists have is having to – for great lengths of

highway – travel behind a slow-moving vehicle, whether it’s recreational or commercial, and that can often result in people taking unnecessary chances,” Stone said. The announcement of the start of planning for a passing lane, “somewhere between Campbell River and the Sayward junction,” is an attempt to alleviate these frustrations. The project will begin by determining a loca-

tion for the additional lane, which will cost $100,000 and take most of 2016 to complete. “We’ll be particularly looking at locations where there is (already) extra width, where it would make it possible for us to be able to construct this passing lane, so that the passing can be done, obviously, as safely as possible,” Stone said. Once a location is determined, the major

engineering work and installation of the lane will begin in 2017, Stone said. And hopefully this improvement is just the first of many. “This will be the first step in continuing to improve the corridor,” Stone said. “We’re monitoring the traffic volumes frequently, and at the end of the day, this stretch of Highway 19 is becoming increasingly busy…so we’re going to need to continue to enhance safety through this corridor, which will likely mean additional passing lanes beyond this one that we’ve announced today.” “I would hope that this (passing lane) is the

ational vehicles may be driving the road for the first time and are not used to the twists and turns and curves, may want to just enjoy the drive and the beautiful scenery. “They’re the ones that may be pulling over as the trucks go by because they’re busy getting their job done.” But regardless of who is doing the pulling over and who is doing the passing, Adams said the passing lane, “will have a significant safety benefit and make it far more enjoyable for all drivers and passengers. It’s a great project for Campbell River, for Sayward, and for all of the North Island.”

He also pointed out that although the perception by many – and the depiction on the illustration behind the podium showing the purpose of the passing lane – is that the lane will be used for commercial trucks to pull over to the right to let cars past, “in the summertime, when we have a significant increase in traffic on this road, a lot of tourism and recre-

Our View

Help doesn’t have limits When it comes to helping others, the phrase ‘think globally, act locally’ comes to mind. As Canada prepares to welcome thousands of Syrian refugees in the coming months, there are those willing to do everything in their power to help, and it’s admirable. At the same time, there are others demanding that we ‘look after our own’ first – and the many who do just that every day are also admirable. There’s no question the need in our own backyard is great; even some of our closest neighbours are struggling. It’s a need that receives less public attention than its international counterpart, although it’s often brought to the forefront a little more this time of year, as Christmas approaches, despite its year-round presence. As calls to focus on our own continue to permeate the refugee discussion, we suggest it’s a good time for all of us to ask ourselves, what exactly have we done to make things better for others? Have we donated to the food bank? Have we checked in on that neighbour who hasn’t been seen in a few days? Have we offered to help serve meals at the local soup kitchen? Before we criticize the help that’s being given to our international neighbours based on the belief that ‘charity begins at home,’ those questions deserve due consideration. Some say how we respond to the plight of Syrian refugees is a test of our values and generosity. The same can be said – and we would venture to an even greater degree – about how we look after our own community. It’s easy to pretend problems, both locally and globally, don’t exist, if we stay inside, turn off our televisions, close our curtains and unplug from the Internet. But it’s neither right nor fair to point to one group that needs help and say, we can’t help you because we have to help our own. Especially if we’re not. And really, even if charity does begin at home, does it have to stop there? -Black Press

● Michele Vanderwoude · Commented on Why are we letting people die on our streets? - Campbell River Mirror Interesting comments from the community. I like Anders Olafson’s question - why are we letting people die in our streets? The government can’t solve all social problems. Yes, the government needs to be responsible, to look after its own citizens, but we, as citizens, have a responsibility too. I am hopeful that people will start to view the issue of homelessness as everyone’s problem, not just someone else’s problem. It could be your family member out there one day. What would you do? We all need to have more compassion for each other. Interestingly, we have a GoFundMe campaign for the Campbell River Extreme Weather Shelter, yet very few people have made a donation. It is not the solution to solving the issue of homelessness, but it is one step toward helping keep people safe on our streets. https://www. gofundme.com/9a7gzugk

The idea of a streetside cafe in the courtyard between the Tidemark Theatre and the library paints a pleasant summer scene that, dare I say it, brings a little bit of Paris caché to this former pulp mill town. That’s one of the proposals the Tidemark Theatre Society has put before city council. It also included increased signage and possibly repainting the old gal from the now-faded pink to something different. These are all very positive ideas and are definitely needed. I have to wonder, though, how thoroughly thought out was the idea of sticking a beer garden in the courtyard? The specifics are lacking because it’s probably just a concept at this stage but still, are they aware that there is a library that opens into that courtyard? I’m hoping that the beer garden will be open after library hours. Thankfully, the library closes at 8 but most shows at the Tidemark begin at 7:30 or 8 p.m. so any beer planting will have to occur before curtain time inside the

times image. And, yes, better signage not only informing people about what’s going on inside but also drawing them to the building is necessary. You look at the Tidemark right now and you don’t really know what it is, other than an oldfashioned movie theatre. But all of this may be a bit of the old putting the sizzle before the steak. Because if there’s nothing going on inside, then all the fancy tinsel and neon ain’t gonna attract people inside. Although, a beer garden might. The Tidemark has had great success with “tribute” bands and other shows bring in a good audience but I wonder what the Tidemark is trying to make of itself? How many Campbell River-based groups use the publicly-funded theatre now? Is this a facility for community cultural groups or is it a concert venue for touring acts? Or is it both? I’d like to see a clearer statement of what are the Tidemark’s plans for inside the theatre as well.

Hospice requests additional funds Kristen Douglas CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

A decision by council to hold off on providing funding to the Hospice Society may delay the ground breaking of a new Hospice House, according to city staff. The Campbell River Hospice Society is asking the city to pay for servicing costs, as well as funds for building permit fees, and any development cost charges related to developing the property at 402 Evergreen Road, next to the new hospital. Elle Brovold, the city’s property manager, said the Hospice project team has decided to go ahead with a future addition to the building which results in higher building permit fees and development cost charges. Brovold said the new estimated building permit fee is $5,910 and the new estimated development cost charges are $17,729, which is an overall increase of $12,803 to city fees and charges from what was originally quoted. Brovold said Hospice has asked that the city cover those fees as well as $65,500 in servicing

costs which is more than anticipated due to the existing soil conditions, the fact services will have to be realigned to be on an angle, and due to significant infrastructure in the roadway. At the Nov. 23 council meeting, Coun. Larry Samson said he wanted to defer a decision on funding until the 2016 budget deliberations which get underway on Monday. “I just think it’s a significant amount of money, it’s not going to hold anything up,” Samson said. But Brovold disagreed, saying that the property requires subdividing before construction on the Hospice House can begin. Before the city can approve a subdivision, however, there needs to be servicing provided to the property. The problem, said Brovold, is Hospice does not have the money to pay for the servicing. “Currently Hospice does not have the funds to secure this servicing to happen without the additional funding from council,” Brovold said. “So if it were to not be approved tonight it

would hold up the subdivision and I believe Hospice was wanting to break ground in December so it could potentially delay their timing.” Once all the permits are approved, Hospice intends to build a 2,476 square foot house to provide a home-like setting for its clients. The facility will be constructed with an addition to possibly house end-of-life beds pending an agreement with Island Health. The property for the house was donated to Hospice by the city. The property is valued at $194,011 and council agreed earlier this year to provide Hospice with a $43,016 grant to cover the original costs of permits, fees and development cost charges. Last week, council was hesitant to give the Hospice Society more without first seeing what its budget for next year will look like. In a narrow, three-to-three vote, with Adams and councillors Michele Babchuk and Ron Kerr opposed, council decided to wait until next week’s budget planning to make a decision on providing more funding.

Council wants downsized platform Kristen Douglas Campbell RiveR miRRoR

In an unusual move, council chose at its last council meeting to go against a recommendation by a city commission which includes members of the public. The city’s Community Services, Recreation and Culture Commission was recommending council replace the viewing platform at Dick Murphy Park with a fancier, larger structure. The new platform

would be an expanded T-shaped structure with room for picnic tables, and a cost estimated at $75,000. Council, at its meeting Nov. 23, wasn’t too keen on that idea and opted to go with a smaller structure – a replica of the original platform which was removed by the city last year due to safety reasons. Coun. Charlie Cornfield wanted to understand the rationale for the commission choosing the pricier option. “What are the advantages under option two?” Cornfield asked. “I certainly want know what was the rationale for that versus a straight pier with some benches for seating.” Jason Decksheimer, the city’s asset management supervisor, said the commission felt that replicating the original structure would not allow for quality time to be spent on the platform. “The real reason they opted for a bigger ver-

sion with a T-shaped deck was simply to allow for more room, for more picnic tables so people could spend some meaningful time out on that platform,” Decksheimer said. “O k ay, an d t h e y couldn’t do it with just benches?” Cornfield asked. “Absolutely, they could, the commission just thought the increased costs over option one were worth the extra expense,” Decksheimer replied. The city has been exploring options for replacing the platform since the summer of 2014. The platform, which was roughly 18 feet wide, stretched out into the estuary near Corilair until it was removed last year for safety reasons. Council has budgeted $25,000 for design plans, not including costs for construction. Council, at last week’s Monday meeting, voted to go with the rep-

lica version of the viewing platform and refer the construction cost of $45,000 to 2016 budget planning which begins on Monday. Coun. Larry Samson said the more modest version is all the city needs. “I think a viewing platform is exactly that,” Samson said. “People can walk around Dick Murphy Park, they can walk out on the viewing platform. Picnic benches to me can be placed around the path or in the grass area.” Mayor Andy Adams agreed that picnic tables could be added to the upland portion of the park, but he acknowledged the work of the commission in coming to the recommendation it did. “I do want to acknowledge the work of the commission and the recommendation,” Adams said. “In no way is this council not appreciating the work the commission does.”

are the harmonious voices of the Company ‘B’ Vocal Trio (“You’d think we were listening to the Andrew Sisters,” said Lavigne), and the energetic and graceful O’Brian O’Connor School of Irish Dance (“They were part of Symphony by the Sea this year,” he added). The music: “I pulled from a whole host of genres – from Bing to Bocelli,” Ken explained. “There’s a lot of variety, like Jingles Bells, the Bing Crosby version. It’s a show stopper. I’ll be singing songs I love to perform, such as Sleigh Ride, Winter Wonderland, What Child is This, Baby It’s Cold Outside, Carol of the Bells, Away In A Manger and O Holy Night – plus my regular songs, both serious and spiritual.” The Tour: Of course there will be Lavigne’s stories and his casual and natural warmwitted banter with the musicians, fellow performers, and audience. “We start in Sidney (Charlie White Theatre, Dec. 7), go up to Campbell River (Tidemark Theatre, 7:30, Dec. 8), Nanaimo (Port Theatre, Dec. 9), Victoria (Alix Goolden Performance Hall, Dec. 10), Comox (Comox United Church, Dec. 11), Parksville (Knox United Church,

But, before he left for the beach he added, “After this tour I head home then fly off to Saskatchewan for 12 shows, then off to Oregon and California before the Christmas tour of the Island. Meanwhile, there are a lot of floods here in South Carolina. I have already been to one of the communities, devastated by floods, to a school, to give an inspirational talk. Unfortunately most of

the kids couldn’t make it because they are still in shelters. I’m a bit timid about being an inspirational speaker but I enjoy doing it in my shows. I hope to inspire others, to follow their dreams.” Who could deny Lavigne’s eternal optimism or forget his amazing feat of following his dream to perform at Carnegie Hall. He is totally genuine, blatantly honest, engaging, and full of heart, mischief and laughter. Add his inspiring recordings, such as his latest Christmas album, Comfort and Joy, featuring the kind of music that wraps you with hope, like a warm blanket – and you have Ken Lavigne – pure inspiration! Come warm yourself

with a cup of good cheer, nostalgia, happy memories and the goodwill of Christmas past. Performing Christmas favourites made famous from Bing to Bocelli, Ken Lavigne and his band will take you on a musical tour – back in time to a 1940’s Christmas, with a “live radio” remake! Enjoy Christmas songs, stories and drama ….just like the radio shows of old! Music will include traditional Christmas favourites plus Jingle Bells, Sleigh Ride, Little Drummer Boy, What Child is This, Baby its cold outside, Christmas in Killarney and more. Advance tickets for Ken Lavigne’s Christmas Old Time Radio Roadshow are available at each venue.

AMPBELLTON Neighbourhood AssociAtioN

York Machine epitomizes diversity in Campbellton By John Twigg, Secretary, Campbellton Neighbourhood Association

Last week's column about the amazing and maybe even unique diversity of interests in the Campbellton area of town only scratched the surface, and a few items deserve a follow-up. First, Daigle Welding & Marine IS a resident of Campbellton because its big main shop across the river is not its only property in the area: it also owns and operates a substantial storage facility inside the Campbellton borders over towards Petersen Road. Second, York Machine Shop no longer employs 35 people - that total is now up to 45 and it's about to grow even more - maybe double? when owner-operator Dennis Cambrey next year opens a huge new facility being built on Vigar Road in North Campbell River only a few minutes away their main plant on 17th Avenue in Campbellton. In fact York Machine Shop is an amazing business success story regardless of where it's located and this week - if things go as planned - readers should be able to watch Mr. Cambrey talk about all of that on my Talk About TV show on Shaw TV North Island (Channel 4 on Shaw, at various times), which show (again if things go as planned) will also include some photos of the existing plant and the new plant under construction as well as maybe of Cambrey with the prototype for a new portable welding machine and a map of the world with pins showing where all of the sales of its unique boring machines have been made. Those boring machines are

mainly derivatives of its original portable boring machines that revolutionized the industrial machine maintenance industry on Vancouver Island by enabling a worker to take them in a float plane to a remote location rather that hauling and barging a big piece of heavy machinery

who had a few employees doing machining in a small shop at 1971 Island Highway, a facility still in cramped use today; the business was bought by Cambrey - then a machinist for a rival company in town - in about 1992, soon moving to its large but now-cramped

Dennis Cambrey displays prototype of York Machine's portable welder

York Machine Shop is constructing a major new building in North Campbell River to a shop and back. When I noted to Mr. Cambrey how amazing it was to see pins stretching all the way down the Americas' west coast to the bottom of Chile he quickly quipped that they've made sales to Antarctica too! But even that could be merely a small beginning because when York's new prototype portable welding machine was displayed at a recent trade show in Chicago it resulted in Cambrey's desk being deluged with pink message slips from customers calling to inquire about buying the new machines, with some of the orders coming in bunches. The business was founded in Campbellton in 1983 by Peter York,

"shop" at 1641 17th Ave., and it has been growing ever since, and winning export awards and more and more customers and an enviable reputation among cognoscenti. A notable turning point was when giant Boeing Corp. came calling asking for help from York, and the rest as they say is history. Along the way York found it had to incorporate a separate American subsidiary for various business reasons related to the ramifications of doing lots of business through sales agents in dozens of American states. Who knew?? I didn't until recently and I've been hanging around here as a business journalist for more than a few years now. And the existing shops in Campbell-

And speaking of food, if things went as planned the Campbellton Neighbourhood Association on Tuesday for the first time showed its new 27-minute documentary film on the Campbellton Community Garden, aka The Gumboot Garden, at the Beijing House Restaurant in Campbellton. The doc was made by local film-maker Mark Job, with me (John Twigg) serving as co-director and Ann Hazlett as producer with many others helping and financially sponsoring - thank you everyone! Why all the fuss? Well because our humble little volunteer-driven garden is on the leading cutting edge of social changes that are coming to the world whether we like it or not. Events such as the terrorist massacre in Paris and the climate-change conference (also in Paris - what does that say?) are pointing towards an increasingly destabilized world in which com-

mercial, political and environmental shifts will force more and more people to depend on their own local resources in order to eat and live. That's not alarmism, it is reality, and the City of Campbell River is amazingly wise (IMO) to have a Sustainable Official Community Plan (soon to be reviewed and updated BTW) that mandates a drive to improve the city's food self-sufficiency from about 3% now to higher double digits within about 15 years - with support from the Campbell River Chamber of Commerce and many other progressive community groups. And the gumboot garden is a template for how to do the sorts of urban agriculture we may all soon need a lot more of, as is the City's new enabling of back-yard hens. The fact they're organic too is only a bonus, such as hens turning table scraps into food eggs and reducing the city's waste-management costs. The next step could be to enable all of the area's community gardens (about five now?) to begin roadside sales. Why not? It's also job creation. Watch for more showings of the video soon, possibly before or during the neighbourhood association's coming annual general meeting on Jan. 13. Further information from brianthepiper@gmail.com.

nominations - he is also known for his commitment to veterans’ causes - the U.S. Congressional Medal of Honour Society’s Bob Hope Award, the Ted Williams Globe & Anchor Award from the USMC and, here at home, a commendation from the Minister of Veteran’s Affairs for this ongoing work, which

includes his foundation McDermott House Canada, dedicated to improving care in the final stages of terminal illness and providing a warm, welcoming place to stay for Canada’s veterans, military, first responders and their families. In concert, whether he is sharing the stage with

a topnotch group of musical friends or touring the world as part of the famed Three Irish Tenors, McDermott continues to enchant audiences with his beautiful voice and sensitive renditions. Though time and travel have introduced him to a wealth of new material and experi-

ences, he manages to incorporate that diversity into his performances, while retaining the beguiling sense of humour that endeared him to audiences from the beginning. This tour features songs from his latest release, Traditionally Yours, as well as a variety of favourites

from his vast recording catalogue. A delectable evening of story and song, delivered with charm and grace by the consummate craftsman himself, John McDermott. Reserved seating tickets for John McDermott ... Traditionally Yours are $44 -$47.50 (tax and

Documentary on making of Campbellton Neighbourhood Garden premieres

he Campbellton Neighbourhood Association hosted on Tuesday the premiere of its recentlycompleted 27-minute documentary film on the making earlier this year of the Campbellton Neighbourhood Garden. The garden is important for numerous reasons, such as helping the four-years-old Neighbourhood Association demonstrate to people and businesses in the area that its works are useful, and helping the City of Campbell River achieve the ambitious food selfsufficiency strategy in its Sustainable Official Community Plan - plus of course providing healthy, fresh, affordable and organic food to its gardeners, even yearround! But perhaps most important in the big picture is that the Campbellton Community Garden is a possible template for the sorts of many more such urban agriculture projects that probably will be needed more of in times ahead due to growing instabilities in global economic, social and environmental conditions. Campbell River, for

example, produces only about three per cent of the food its residents and visitors now eat, and the food on its grocery shelves would last the city only about three days, so clearly more needs to be done in that area for the benefit of everyone. The 22-plot garden is in a portion of an underused urban park in an older and mixeduse neighbourhood of Campbell River; It is located on 15th Avenue near Petersen Road. The present facilities, which include fencing, water taps, a locked gate and a locked shed, are in the first of what is intended to be two phases, with the second phase timing depending on demand and donations. The first phase was constructed from April through June entirely with volunteer labour and with materials either donated or sold at discounted prices by more than a dozen

The Campbellton Neighbourhood Garden is a template for the sorts of urban agriculture projects will probably be needed in the future as communities strive towards sustainable local food production.

The executive producers who pledged the start-up funding for the film were investment adviser Brian Shaw, chair of the CNA, and businessman Ted Arbour, a CNA director and longtime Campbellton resident. Other major sponsors of the video include Corby Lamb of Capacity Forest Management, Realtor Gary Jones, Christa Furnau of HYGRO Gardening Supplies, the Campbell River Mirror, the Beijing House Restaurant, the Quinsam Hotel and the Campbellton Neighbourhood Association. An early three-minute version of the video was entered in B.C. Hydro’s Community Champions contest and received an honourable mention. The garden project itself also received a sustainability award from the City of Campbell River, the presentation of which is included in the film.

The local Grandmothers to Grandmothers group presented the editor with a speciallydesigned cover for his blue recycling bin. Grandmothers’ members Karen King and Vicki Simmons explained that the bin-lid has been designed to fit the blue bins issued to Campbell River households for recycling, and are for sale. Limited numbers of the bin covers, along with other socially and environmentally conscious gifts, will be on sale at the Grandmothers to Grandmothers’ table at Saturday’s Fair Trade Global Market at Timberline School, starting

at 10 a.m. Made from scrap plywood or oriented strand board, each bin cover is heavy enough to not blow away, fits cleanly within the rim of the standard recycling bin, and has an opening to make lifting the cover easy for recycling truck workers as well as for the householder. The covers are painted with durable exterior paint in a light colour so the householder’s address can be added with a permanent felt marker. Also featured at the Grandmothers table are special seasonal sweaters, like the two worn by presenters Vicki and Karen in the photo (above) .

Mirror editor Alistair Taylor (centre) experienced a grandmotherly intervention last week when Vicki Simmons (left) and Karen King of Campbell River’s Grandmothers to Grandmothers gave him a recycling bin cover which they will be selling at this weeke n d ’s F a i r Tr a d e Global Market at Timberline School.

The sweaters are upcycled, uniquely decorated previously-owned garments, intended to appeal to people looking for what to wear to a work-place Ugly Sweater Day, or to any Christmas event where the emphasis is on fun. Styles range from the seasonally tacky but timely, to the almostGlam. Because each sweater is unique, the selection of colours, styles and sizes is limited. The Grandmothers to Grandmothers also will be offering their muchanticipated delicious seasonal baking and greenery arrangements, plus other specialty crafts. All proceeds from

the sale go to the Stephen Lewis Foundation which helps African Grandmothers raising children orphaned by AIDS. To date, the Campbell River Grandmothers to Grandmothers group has raised more than $66,500 for the Grandmothers Campaign of the Stephen Lewis Foundation. The Grandmothers group meets on the first Thursday of each month at 7:15 p.m. at the United Church Fellowship Hall at the corner of Birch Street and Pinecrest Road. See www.campbellrivergrandmothers2grandmothers.org for more information about their work.

Kathy is also survived by her brothers Alan and Kenny as well as her sisters Edie, Mae, Alice, Myra, Gwen and Lauralee. Kathy was a kind-hearted, generous woman whose family meant the world to her. She spent many years caring for the children of others whom she loved like her own. Special thank you to Dr. Sullivan and the nurses and staff of 2 & 3 North at the Campbell River Hospital who took great care of her and who she was very fond of. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to the Canadian Lung Association. Service to be held December 7, 2015 at 2pm at the Church of the Way, 451 - 7th Avenue, Campbell River.

Robson, (William) John Oct 20, 1934 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Nov 27, 2015

John was a long-time resident of Quadra Island and Campbell River and he passed away peacefully in Kelowna, BC. He leaves behind and will be forever missed by his loving wife, June, children John Glenn Robson, Kevin (Roni) Seeley, Craig Seeley, and Colleen (Rick) Tillapaugh along with 7 grandchildren and 2 great-grandchildren.Â He was predeceased by his mother, Laura McLean, of Quadra Island. John spent his working years as a logging truck driver in many camps along coastal BC and enjoyed reminiscing about the good old days. Upon his retirement, John & June moved to the sunny Okanagan. His kind, gentle manner, sense of humour and bright smile will be missed and he left his family and friends with many good memories to cherish. Special thanks go out to Dr. Bystrom, Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cancer care team, and the Central Okanagan Hospice House. A celebration of Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life will be held in Campbell River at a later date.Â In lieu of flowers donations may be sent to the Canadian Cancer Society.

November 22, 1952 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; November 15, 2015 We are profoundly saddened to announce the passing of Mary Ann Little at St. Josephâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital on November 15, 2015, surrounded by her loving family. Mary was predeceased by her father Jim Little and brother Jimmy Little. Mary is survived and forever missed by Jack Scott; her mother Eula Little; sister Nancy Little; son Amos Ashurst (Aura Haydon, Willum and Iliza); daughters Jaime Ashurst (Lucas Schuller, Hazel), Erin Ashurst (Riley and Ethan); grandsons Riley and Ethan Ashurst; Zoa Scott (Lise), Jordan Scott (Marina); Rachel Scott. Mary is also survived by family in Burns Lake, Seattle Wash. and Texas. Mary was born in Seattle, Wash. to Jim and Eula Little. She had many fond memories of growing up in the city with frequent family vacations to the Tuck family farm in Texas. She completed her schooling there, and later received her B.A. at C.W.S.C. in Seattle. Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s employment history was diverse in the early years, lab worker, clothing retail, fruit picker, bartender, forestry worker to name a few. After immigrating to Canada and joyfully becoming a mother of 3, Mary attended UBC to complete her Teaching Certificate. She taught in Burns Lake and then, moving to the coast, she taught with the Campbell River District until her retirement. Mary had nothing but respect and admiration for her CR colleagues. Mary had a lifelong interest in how people learned. She always looked for ways to best reach students, especially those marginalized by personal challenges. Mary spent the last 12 years of life totally committed to loving and assisting her grandsons, Ethan and Riley, with their education. She eventually became a firm believer and avid supporter of Nides/ Navigator as the perfect solution. The inclusive setting and self-directed format woven with family involvement was an ideal fit. Mary was an extremely private, caring, alpha woman, a quiet, humble leader that sought the truth in life. Mary was an advocate for traveling lightly through her world, a minimalist forever conscious of the waste and excesses. She was always happiest with her hands in the earth, working soil, planning and planting future gardens to harvest or simply enjoying the visual feast of her landscape. We would like to thank Dr. Janet Green, Emergency and 3rd floor nurses at St. Joseph's for their care, compassion and support for Mary and family. We would also like to send a heartfelt thank you to Monika, Sally, Janice and the Merville Grandmothers for being Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s friend and support network as well as for feeding and nurturing us through our loss. Mary Littleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Opus would have been composed between the space and timing of the waves, a motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s love and tide changing strength for family forming the rhythm by which all else follows, her passionate commitment to empower her students the pitch and slope of the swells in her sea, her mission to assist each individual to find their perfect note, to make their unique song, breaking forward to embrace the contours of their own shore. Our compass, our glue, forever in our hearts. We love and miss you. At Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s request there will be a gathering of family, close friends and the Merville Grandmothers at our home on Sat. Dec. 5, 1:00-3:00pm. A community gathering will be announced at a later date. Flowers gratefully declined, if you wish to donate please do so in Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s honor to the Merville Grandmothers quest to raise funds for the children of Africa, through the Stephen Lewis Foundation.

Island Funeral Services

As a family, we would like to express our gratitude to the Evergreen Seniors Home in providing care for our loved one for the past 3 years. It was a difficult journey for our family and our experience regarding our loved oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stay was a special one. We feel very fortunate to have had our loved one call Evergreen his home. The level of care given by all of the skilled and knowledgeable staff was exceptional in making sure our loved oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s physical and emotional needs were met. Thank-you for showing such compassion and understanding towards us as a family and helping our loved one maintain a sense of dignity during his stay and in his passing. This unconditional love that was given to all of us has assisted our family in finding comfort and peace. Maybe angels really do walk among us. Forever grateful -The Smysnuck, Eyre and Garneau families.

Jimmy Allen (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ollieâ&#x20AC;?) Chickite April 9, 1937 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; November 24, 2015

He may have been quiet, but he spoke volumes. He may have been small, but his presence on earth loomed large. To many he will be remembered as the one who donated the heritage designated seiner BCP 45 to the Vancouver Maritime Museum when she was retired from the commercial fishing industry, and is now on display at Campbell Riverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Maritime Heritage Centre. Not only was Ollie her last owner, he was on board that day back in 1958 when their photo was taken near Ripple Point, and it subsequently graced the back of the Canadian $5 bill from 1972 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 1986; heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s on net table at the stern. However, to those in his incredibly extended family, he will be remembered as always acting in the capacity of a father rather than a brother or Uncle. His unequivocal love for family and friends established a virtual revolving door on his home. It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter when - recently, twenty, forty or even sixty years ago - those who were in his life were welcomed, nurtured, counselled, appreciated and loved. His generosity had no bounds. Ollie worked in the forest industry at Teakerne Arm between fishing seasons in his earlier days, he planted trees, was an expert net maker and mender in addition to his passion for all types of commercial fishing. He fished cod, halibut, herring and salmon; he gillnetted, trolled, and seined; he filled every position on a boat in his seining career, including that of Captain. He will be reunited with his parents Albert â&#x20AC;&#x153;Edwardâ&#x20AC;? and Annie (Seville) Chickite; brothers and sisters Ralph, Pauline Wallace, Lucy â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dianaâ&#x20AC;? Henderson, Brenda Chickite and an infant sister Brenda. Those left to remember their brother are Caroline James, Harold (Katie), Winnifred (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Anitaâ&#x20AC;?) Hunt, June Johnson, Albert â&#x20AC;&#x153;Melvinâ&#x20AC;? Chickite, Gloria (Andy) Paul and Geraldine (Keith) Wilson. He has an abundance of nephews and nieces, cousins and friends that will miss him tremendously and in particular, his friend Brian Kyle. Ollie has chosen to be returned to the waters off Greensea Bay, which not only signifies his connection to his lifelong career, but also to the ocean that claimed the life of his father and brother. He fished with his brother Harold on the Pacific Aggressor right up to the immediate days before his passing. Although his net has been set for the last time, and the rings are up, Ollieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family and friends take comfort knowing that his life was full of bubblesâ&#x20AC;Ś

There will be a celebration of his life Monday, Dec. 14th, 1:00 pm at the Maritime Heritage Centre.

A thought of sweet remembrance from one who thinks of you.

Watch for the Carihi Mirror bi-weekly feature starting Friday, November 20th Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a passion for life, and am always looking for the next great adventure. Last summer I spent more evenings in a tent on a mountain side than in my own bed. My love for nature goes hand in hand with my love for exercise and fitness. I bike to Cassidy Hinsberger school every morning and spend some afternoons running the local trails. All this fresh air and stimulation fuels my mind for writing. For the past three years I have been enjoying the world of writing and literature. The freedom and creativity that writing symbolizes inspires me. I am beyond excited for this opportunity to write for the Campbell River Mirror because I dream of pursuing a career in journalism. My goal is to learn as much as I can from the amazing team that will be guiding me. Each story is an adventure and I am excited to explore.

Even before I learned how to read and write, I had a passion for storytelling.Â I would come home from daycare with series of my own drawings and would â&#x20AC;&#x153;readâ&#x20AC;? these drawings aloud to my mother.Â She acted as my scribe during the early years and recorded my stories as I told them.Â Fast forward Jasmine MacGregor to now. I am a grade 11 French immersion student with a love for film, music, and the great outdoors. As an active leadership student and a member of service groups such as Interact Club and the Youth Action Committee, I have gotten to know how dynamic and wonderful our community is. Writing for the Campbell River Mirror will be my first experience in journalism, a path that I am thrilled to explore. I look forward to telling stories from within the community with the same passion I possessed as a young girl.

When Nigel was younger heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d wake up as soon as the sun shone through the windows and force his parents to start their day earlier than desired so he could play RollerCoaster Tycoon. This would lead him to become a rather unsuccessful rollercoaster connoisseur. In his spare time Nigel loves to draw, specifically with mechanNigel Neufeld ical pencil as he enjoys the extra precision, write, read, play games (both physical and virtual), play different instruments (classical guitar, piano and trombone) and drive. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always had a passion for cars and never ceased to bug his family about fulfilling his dream to race at Saratoga Speedway. Now, at 17 heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been racing for 5 years and has thoroughly enjoyed each and every minute of it. Basically anything with wheels brings Nigel pleasure, as he also really enjoys biking throughout the wonderful trails that hide in the many treed areas of Campbell River.

It was a tale of two teams last weekend as the Campbell River Midget Tyees were back on home ice for a pair of games. The weekend kicked off Saturday afternoon as the Peninsula Eagles made the trip north. The Eagles coaching staff clearly picked the right time for a players only bus trip. From the start of the game the visiting team looked focused and ready to play. The Tyees faced a hardworking, disciplined team that clearly had one goal in mind – win. The home s quad fought hard and had some good chances, but couldn’t beat the Peninsula goalkeeper. The Eagles boarded their bus and headed home with a 4-0 victory. Sunday’s contest saw the Juan de Fuca Grizzlies challenge the home town Tyees. The first periods of the two games could not

The Tyees and Eagles get all tangled up in their pursuit for the puck during Saturday’s game.

The Grizzlies found themselves pinned in their own end for long periods of time, as the Tyees forecheck was working well. The Tyees jumped out to the lead with a wrister from the stick of Lucas Lund, assisted by Braydon Kratzmann. Kaleb Beattie doubled the lead 45 seconds later on a nice feed from Sage Lim. The home squad continued to press, causing the Juan de Fuca boys to take a number of penalties. Jacob Hartley netted two powerplay goals near the end of the first period, with assists going to Beattie and Lim. Tyee Owen Boyd got into the action in the second period, as he tucked home a pass from Lim and Tyler Dickson. The ice clean seemed

to allow the Grizzlies to hit the reset button, as they were a different team in the second half. The Grizzlies found their skating legs and closed the gap to one with five minutes remaining in the game. The final few minutes saw frantic action and a huge penalty kill for the Tyees in the dying seconds to preserve the Tyees lead. Tyee goaltender Carson Borgfjord was well deserving of the 5-4 win. “This weekend was a tale of two different teams, today, we worked hard on the forecheck, got the puck deep and didn’t take any shifts off, that’s exactly what we were lacking in yesterday’s game,” said Head Coach Brent Cross following Sunday’s game.

Be an angel this Christmas Kristen Douglas Campbell RiveR miRRoR

Wanted: Christmas angels to shine down on Campbell River children this holiday season. Hundreds of parents are hoping the community’s generosity will help make this Christmas a little bit brighter. The names of 360 children will be hanging on a tree set up in the lobby of the Discovery Inn, starting this Friday. It’s part of the Downtown Business Improvement Association’s Angel Tree which the community has been eagerly anticipating. “The staff (at the Discovery Inn) have been taking several calls a day from people asking

‘when’s the tree going up?’ They’re getting calls daily wondering when it’s going to start,” says Dawn Hamilton, Angel Tree co-ordinator. The Angel Tree, which goes up every year, is there for those in the community to come and select a tag hanging from the tree which identifies a child’s age and gender, their needs and their wants. The cards identify basic needs such as toiletries and diapers for the babies as well as jackets, socks and underwear. The tags also list the child’s wants which typically include toys, colouring books, or games – depending on the age of the child; the children range in age

from birth to 18-yearsold. It’s up to the donor to then purchase what they can from the items listed on the tag, which go towards a vulnerable child in the community. Hamilton says the children are selected by social organizations within the city. “The worker identifies the family in need,” Hamilton says. “This is a sort of last resort for families and often this is their only Christmas gift they’re going to get.” Once all of the donations are returned, unwrapped, to the Angel Tree, volunteers sort through the items, wrap them, and turn them over to the local agencies to be delivered to

Early gift for regional district Kristen Douglas

Campbell RiveR miRRoR

The Strathcona Regional District has accepted a large gift. It’s not a monetary donation, but a piece of land. One that’s roughly 0.5 acres in size and requires some work to bring it up to snuff. T h e prop e r t y i n question is located on Mitlenatch Drive in Area D, just south of the city limits, and is surrounded by residential homes. The owner of the

property, who resides in Calgary, gifted the land to the regional district because a coho salmonbearing stream, Midge Creek, runs through the property and makes it undevelopable. Regional district directors officially accepted the property, in exchange for a tax receipt, at last Thursday’s board meeting after the owner provided documentation proving that the site is not contaminated and that costs to appraise the property and transfer it to the regional district

will be borne by the land owner. Tom Yates, the regional district’s corporate services manager, said staff believe the public will benefit from the regional district’s acquisition of the property which the organization plans to turn into parkland. “It is staff ’s opinion that the public’s interests will be well protected upon passage of the bylaw and execution of the agreement,” Yates said. The deal is also a win for the environment,

Hamilton says donations of cash, new toys, books, socks, jackets, puzzles, diapers, clothes and gift cards in small denominations are also welcome for those who would like to participate without selecting a tag.
