Syrian refugee sponsorship By Xuyun Zeng Houston Today

STORIES with Santa

Robin Vander Heide/Houston Today

The Houston Public Library and Houston Link to Learning hosted the annual “Stories with Santa” event last Thursday afternoon. Santa arrived to a crowded room, full of local families and kids eager to see him. He read several holiday stories. Kids also had a chance to visit with Santa, make a craft, and enjoy some healthy snacks.

Members of the community are coming together to find a way to help Syrian refugees. “The need is there,” said committee member Robin Euverman. “And I guess, part of it too…is because some us know Akram [Khalil], and his family lives in Syria. That’s where he’s from and that gave us a bit of a push.” Ten people met for the first time Dec. 3 to discuss how they can get the ball rolling. They were to meet again Dec. 15 at the Houston Public Library at 7 p.m to get public input and are hoping people will come forth to volunteer. “We’re holding meetings for sponsoring Syrian refugees,” said Euverman. “We’re laying the groundwork and exploring the possibility of welcoming a

Inquiry into missing and murdered women launched By Alicia Bridges Black Press

Family members of victims of the so-called Highway of Tears have called for rural and remote consultation after the Liberal government launched the first phase of a longawaited inquiry into missing and murdered

indigenous women last Tuesday. At a press conference in Ottawa last Tuesday afternoon, federal Justice Minister Jody WilsonRaybould said the first step of the inquiry would be to meet with families in the Ottawa region to seek their input on the inquiry’s

On the committee’s part, they need to put together a plan. “It’s called a settlement plan, and have all those things in place — who’s going to do what before we can ask,” she said, referring to putting a request forward to the federal government to sponsor a refugee. “It’s a list of probably 15-20 different things, even things like applying for B.C. medical, applying for a social insurance number, child tax benefit, locate a local doctor, dentist, all those kind of things.” Once a refugee comes to Canada, the federal government will contact sponsor agreement holders, which Citizenship and Immigration Canada

INQUIRY from Page 1 hopes to announce in spring 2016. After years campaigning for a national inquiry, Smithers woman Matilda Wilson was happy when she saw the announcement on television today. Her daughter Ramona was 16 when she disappeared along Highway 16 in 1994. Her body was found near the Smithers Regional Airport the following year. Wilson hopes the inquiry will lead to better education to protect vulnerable women, improved transportation along Highway 16 and reduced poverty. She said the inquiry would need to travel to remote parts of northwest B.C. to fully understand the challenges facing indigenous women and girls. “There’s been a lot of talk from different people, especially in Victoria and Vancouver,” she said. “They have no idea how isolated some of these little villages are, how you have to get to town, how you have to get to your appoint-

ments, how do you have to get to school.” Wilson also hopes the inquiry will bring to light information that could re-open unsolved cases like Ramona’s. She wants the inquiry to look at each case individually to help find answers for victims’ families. “It’s been 21 years and I’m still praying that some day her murder will be solved,” she said. “I say the same thing for the missing that are not found, they will be found, I know they will be. “I pray every day for these parents and relatives that are still going through this right now.” Vancouver-based Gladys Radek runs an organization called Tears4Justice, which works with victims’ families and raises awareness about the issue of missing and murdered indigenous women. She started the group after she lost her niece Tamara Chipman, aged 22, who vanished from Highway 16 near Prince Rupert in 2005. Radek said the inquiry would need to travel

to every community to consult with every affected family. She believes the scale of the inquiry should be similar to that of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, which collected thousands of statements from residential school survivors and their families. “To be more effective they should be going community by community, because that way you are not going to be overwhelmed,” she said. “Should they feel that they want to meet on a provincial level that would be good too, because they are going to be overwhelmed with the stories.” She said today’s announcement gave her some hope but she was still apprehensive about how effective the inquiry would be. “It’s just really hard to really get excited about it, especially knowing how hard we worked for decades trying to bring this to the attention of Canadians,” she said. “I’m a little apprehensive, we’ve had promise given before.”

In our opinion:

‘Tis the season for giving

or many organizations, this is the make or break time of the year, when they collect a large percentage of the money they need to keep operating throughout the year. The amount that will be donated across Canada is amazing. According to Imagine Canada, a national umbrella group for charities, the six weeks leading up to Christmas account for 40 per cent of all charitable donations made in 2015. Six-in-10 Canadians will donate and this year’s holiday giving is expected to hit $5-billion, bringing total gifts to charities and non-profits to about $13 billion for the entire year. That is a lot of cash, but what stands out for us is that 60 per cent of us are willing to share their good fortune with others. That is impressive, and clearly a positive sign for the future and an indication that Canadians see this time of year as a chance to strengthen their communities in ways that are important to them. Fancy cars, expensive clothes, fine dining and exotic vacations, are all great ways to spend your hard-earned dollars. And there is nothing wrong with rewarding yourself for a job well done, but helping others can be its own reward, a source of personal optimism and satisfaction. But with so many deserving groups needing support, both financial and otherwise, it can be hard to decide. One of the key strategies Imagine Canada recommends is to align your gift with your passion. When making a donation, consider the sort of world you want to build and work with charitable organizations that reflect your ideals. That advice goes well for another type of giving. Helping fill an organization’s financial coffers is important, but many of these groups are as short of volunteers as they are funds. The South Okanagan Similkameen Volunteer Centre is a key way to find that charity or notfor-profit that matches your personal ideals. Without the contribution of volunteers, many groups — schools, hospitals, community organizations, sports programs — would not be able to function. The centre’s goal is to bring people together with the groups that need their help. Check them out at www.VolunteerCentre.info. -Black Press

Happy hump day greetings About 25 years ago when I was working in the classified advertising department of a large Vancouver newspaper company, my beautiful friend walked in with a giant box of Twizzlers. It was a grim day, rainy and cold outside, cranky and glum inside. There were about 30 of us in the phone room and it was a slow afternoon for calls, which got me clock watching. As I counted down the time to my next coffee break, in walked Sharon Hicks, like a ray of sunshine through the fog. “Happy hump day!” she exclaimed with her megawatt smile. Happy what? I thought to myself. Sharon was squeaky clean and never said anything the least bit offside or risqué that I’d ever heard, so I was sur-

prised. “A little something to help us get over this week’s hump,” she said handing out the strawberry licorice to her delighted co-workers. Okay, so that made more sense. She was referring to it being Wednesday and getting over that hump in the middle of the week, bringing us that much closer to the weekend. I’d never heard that expression before, but I liked it. I actually thought she made it up. As she walked around the office full of women, they suddenly seemed like girls. I marvelled at how easy and inexpensive that was for her to break up the monotony and spread cheer among us grumps who had been experiencing some extra stress and tension within the department. For the rest of the day everyone

chattered between calls with spirits brightened from our cheery messenger. For some reason that memory has always stuck with me. Most Wednesdays since then I’ve thought about Sharon and her sweet offering - it’s a gift I’ll never forget. I’ve greeted people with “Happy Humpday” ever since and I’ve noticed it’s become more well known than it used to be. The majority of people seem to understand it’s midweek meaning now, and people still giggle at it. Not everyone finds it funny though. Last week an elderly lady chastised a bubbly clerk I like for saying it to me in the grocery store. “Excuse me?” she asked angrily. “That is highly inappropriate!” Jumping to the employees’s defence I tried

to explain it’s reference to Wednesdays but she cut me off and told me to mind my own fuzzy business. Except the word she used wasn’t fuzzy. The younger woman and I looked at each other with stunned expressions, as though we were little kids being scolded by a scary stranger. We fell silent as she stomped away muttering obsenities. I wondered if I should follow her and try to make it clear no disrepect was intended, but I didn’t. A man in close proximity who’d seen and heard the whole thing started to laugh. “Don’t worry,” he said. “I think she just comes here to mess with people. I’ve seen her do that before.” As our shock wore off, we laughed as well. I purposely visited

the candy aisle after that, determined to take Twizzlers home to the kids and tell them about the interesting encounter, and the decades old recollection I’d never shared. I suspect my happy hump days won’t just have memories of Sharon and Twizzlers anymore. They’ll also include the senior with the unexpected trucker talk. Either way, they both make me smile.

$100 million tech fund for B.C. ‘Dragon’s Den’ By Tom Fletcher Black Press

The B.C. government is putting up $100 million for a real-life version of the TV show Dragon’s Den, providing seed money to entrepreneurs who convince experts their new technology ideas will grow. Premier Christy Clark announced the new fund Tuesday at the Vancouver offices of Mobify, a marketing company for

retailers to advertise on mobile devices. The first step was to invite proposals for a venture capital company to administer the fund. “We don’t want to be influencing that, except that we want them to be in British Columbia, and we want the fund manager to have a managing partner based in B.C.,” she said. Clark said high technology is performing better than other parts of the economy, and now

directly employs 86,000 people who make higher wages than the industrial average. The taxpayer investment is to give startups the recognition they need to attract private venture capital. Clark said banks look to invest in “guaranteed bets,” but technology companies are higher risk with higher rewards for those that succeed. NDP technology critic George Heyman said the in-

dustry has been lobbying the province for this kind of assistance, and he supports it if the money is delivered in a transparent way and

results are tracked. A previous effort aimed at immigrant investors, the B.C. Renaissance Capital Fund, was criticized for a lack of both.

In one case it provided money to a San Francisco company that opened an office in Calgary but not B.C. “The taxpayer

subsidizes all sorts of things that relate to job creation,” Heyman said. “In the case of the tech sector, these are the jobs of the 21st Century. B.C. has a sector that’s performing well but could perform a lot better, and it needs investment to do that.” B.C. also offers $33 million in tax credits to “angel investors” who put up money to develop a business that has attracted seed money.

HOPE forToday King of Kings

King Herod had a problem. His position was being threatened. Some wise men from the east had come to announce that a King was being born somewhere in Herod’s kingdom. He was disturbed and his immediate thought was to defend himself. Finding from the scriptures that this child was to be born in Bethlehem (Matthew 2:1-12; Micah 5:6), Herod sought to find this newborn King and to kill him. He ordered that all baby boys in Bethlehem two years old and under should be killed (Matthew 2:13-18). Little did he know that by the intervention of angels, King Jesus had escaped the clutches of selfish and egotistical Herod. Herod’s greatest problem was with himself. He was so caught up in his own egotism, his own self-preservation, his own little kingdom, that he was blinded to the wonders that were unfolding before his very eyes. He was oblivious to what was really going on. Little did he know, this little baby was the One who gave him life (Acts 17:24-26). Little did he know, this little baby was the Creator of the universe (John 1:1-4). Little did he know, this little baby holds all creation together (Colossian 1:17). This baby Jesus was and is the Author of life. Without him Herod would not have even existed, and neither would anyone else for that matter. Little did he know that one day he would have to stand before Jesus and have to answer for the sinful life that he lived. Yet, all of heaven knew who Jesus was. The angels exalted God while proclaiming his birth. The shepherds glorified and praised God while witnessing this amazing event of the only begotten Son being born into the human race (Luke 2:8-20). The wise men came to bow down and worship him. The question for us today is, what will we do with Jesus, who was born the King of kings? What will we do with Jesus who is the eternal God, who came to be part of this rebellious human race to save us from our sins and our selfish ways? Will we, like Herod, try to obliterate him from the face of the earth? Will we ignore him and carry on in our own self preservationist and egotistical ways? Or will we acknowledge who he is and surrender to and worship him while we still have time? May we with the myriad of angels in heaven proclaim “Glory to God in the highest and peace on earth to those with whom God is pleased.” Luke 2:14 NLT Submitted by Ken Penner Sponsored by

AGM Will be held

Wednesday January 13th, 2016

As a result of the overwhelming generosity and support of the local communities, the Houston / Granisle Detachment was able to stuff four police vehicles with food and gifts and raised $1256 in cash for the Salvation Army in Houston and the Lions Club in Granisle. The goal was to fill a Crown Victoria police cruiser at each event, however, after the trunk and interior were quickly filled with food in Houston, other police vehicles had to be brought in. As a result of the outstanding community support, 3 vehicles were filled at the Houston Detachment and 1 vehicle was filled in Granisle. In addition to the food, a total of $1256 was collected in cash for the Salvation Army Christmas Hamper food drive and will go to help people in this community! “The overwhelming support of the residents, businesses and organizations in these small towns proved on Saturday

Poor air quality advisory By Xuyun Zeng Houston Today

Poor air quality caused alarm on December 11th & 12th when fine particulates became trapped in Houston and Smither’s air. The Ministry of Environment and Northern Health issued an air quality advisory on the morning of December 11th when particulate matter up to 2.5 millimetres in size reached an average concentration of 30.2 micrograms-per-cubicmetre, 5.2μg above the

provincial air quality maximum. “All this week we’ve had pretty poor dispersion — so cold air and calm winds — and basically wood smoke has been collecting near the ground and building up,” Ministry of Environment meteorologist Barry Watson said. It was suspected that smoke from open burning in the surrounding areas settled into town. Watson could not confirm the veracity of this claim. The province monitors weather indica-

tors daily and decides whether to ban open burning based on venting conditions. Open burning can only be done during “good” or “fair” ratings. During “poor” venting conditions, people can receive fines under the Open Burning Smoke Control Regulation. Watson said people can check the venting index by calling 1-888281-2992. “You’re obliged to check that before you light a pile,” Watson said. “Or you can go to bcairquality.ca and it’s

there on the webpage,” Houston has a bylaw that prohibits the use of wood-burning appliances during an air quality advisory unless it’s the only heat source at home. The Ministry of Environment suggests that people using wood stoves or fireplaces use only CSA/EPA emissions approved wood burning appliances and dry wood. They also suggest ensuring good air intake to ensure complete combustion. They add that reducing usage and idling of vehicles helps too.

ICY Roads A Semi truck blocked Highway 16 for a time near the Knockholt turnoff road east of Houston.

Police report: Logging truck rollover on Morice River Rd By Xuyun Zeng Houston Today

Police received 39 calls for service in the last seven days. Three were traffic-related and one was an abandoned 911 call. There were no bylaw complaints or false alarms. Police raised $1,256.55 during Cram-the-Cruiser and proceeds will go to the Salvation Army. They filled a sedan, SUV and pickup truck in Houston. They also filled a pickup in Granisle. *** On Dec. 3 at 11 a.m., police received a report of additional mischief to the Christmas lights at Steelhead Park. Some lights have been removed from the walking bridge. It did not appear that any lights were stolen. Anyone with information is asked to contact police or Crimestoppers. *** On Dec. 3 at 4:45 p.m., police received a report of a logging truck rollover on the Morice River Road. Police attended and located an overturned vehicle. The driver was reportedly uninjured at that time. Road and weather conditions were contributing factors to the crash. No charges were laid. Damage to the vehicle

was unknown prior to police departure. The road was reduced to single-lane alternating traffic for approximately oneand-a-half hours. While investigating that accident, a second logging truck collided with an emergency vehicle causing significant damage to it. No one was injured as the emergency vehicle driver was attending to the driver at the original crash. *** On Dec. 4 at 1 a.m., police received a report of a collision on Highway 16 near Six Mile Hill. Police attended and found a small car in the ditch. Neither the driver nor passenger was injured. Speed was a contributing factor to the cause of the crash, although the roads were also snow covered. The driver was not charged in relation to the crash, but was issued a violation ticket for not having a driver’s licence. *** On Dec. 4 at 3:50 a.m., police received a report of a collision on Highway 16 at Morgan Road. Speed was believed to be a contributing factor. The driver was issued a violation ticket for speeding relative to road conditions given the packed snow on the roadway. There

is significant damage to the vehicle, but neither the driver nor passenger were injured. *** On Dec. 5 at 4:20 p.m., police received a report of an attempted break-and-enter and uttering threats at a residence on Sullivan Way. Police attended and spoke with the involved parties but were unable to locate the suspect. Efforts are ongoing to arrest the individual. Shortly after that call to police, it was reported he was involved in a shoplifting offence from a local store. *** On Dec. 5 at 8 p.m., police arrested a male for being unlawfully at large. He was supposed to have been in cells serving an intermittent sentence from a previous conviction. The man was held in custody to appear in Smithers Provincial Court on Dec. 7 where he subsequently was sentenced to 10 additional days jail. *** On Dec. 6 at 6 p.m., police responded to a collision on Highway 16 and Bellicini Pit Road after a vehicle hit a deer. The driver was uninjured and the passenger sustained minor injuries. The deer was killed and the vehicle sustained significant damage.

He leaves to mourn his father and mother Bob and Leslie Hamblin, children Kayliegh, Damian (Amber), Joshua and Shelby (Jason), his sister Darlene Monkman (Roger), four grandchildren, his partner Christine Prebble and well as aunts, uncles, cousins, nephews and many friends. Daryl was predeceased by his brother Glen in 1982 as well as both sets of grandparents. Daryl was born and raised in Houston. He worked at many places throughout B.C. but always returned to Houston where his roots were. Daryl’s favourite times were when he was out camping at one of the many lakes in the area, fishing and hunting and spending time with Christine, his dog Kuba and family. At the time of his death he was employed by Tahtsa Timber. He will be sadly missed by all who knew him. No funeral by request.
