Parents fight ‘for the heart of Oyster River’ MiKe Davies Campbell RiveR miRRoR
The parents and community members who would be affected by the closure of Oyster River Elementary, like those at Discovery Passage Elementary two days earlier, showed up in droves Wednesday evening to defend their school. Banners reading, “Don’t take the heart out of Oyster River,” and other messaging were hung around the gymnasium, petitions to various levels of government were at a side table on the way through the door and the concern and disappointment could be read on the faces of those who filled the room. The structure was the same at both consultation meetings. Superintendent Tom Longridge and Secretary-Treasurer Kevin Patrick gave a presentation on the rationale given for the facility being chosen when staff was tasked with selecting two schools for closure, which was followed by small roundtable discussions amongst those assembled to ask questions of trustees and staff, suggest alternatives and express their concerns. “I was actually impressed with the process of the meeting,” said BobbiJo Thulin, chair of the school’s Parent Advisory Council. “I think the way that they organized it was much better than if they would have had

Windchimes, an ice machine maker, a hot tub, and garbage trucks. Those were some of the things that reportedly got on some Campbell Riverites’ nerves in 2015. The noise makers prompted public nuisance complaints to City Hall as revealed in a bylaw enforcement statistics report recently released by the city. Of the 555 bylaw complaints the city received in 2015, public nuisance was the most common beef, with 216 incidents reported. Of those 216, 79 were related to unsightly premises (vegetation, 50, and materials, 29) while 32 people complained about graffiti and 30 had a noise complaint. Powertools topped the list of noise complaints at eight, while garbage collection and vehicles each generated seven complaints. Amplified music prompted four calls to the city while windchimes, a heat pump, an ice machine maker, and a hot tub each generated one complaint. Coun. Charlie Cornfield, upon seeing the statistics at council’s Monday night meeting, noted that

David Welychko and his crew at Ripple Rock Restorations find all kinds of things in walls. They’ve found guns, old newspapers, even old tobacco cans full of cash. “We found a tobacco can in a wall once that had $600 American in it,” Welychko says. “We just about threw it in the dumpster. It was just all black and dirty mixed in with old appliances and tools, but we opened it up and found the cash inside, gave it back to the guy, and he just said, ‘Oh, I’d forgotten all about that.’ He didn’t even say thanks.” This week, however, they found a mystery – a $100 mystery with a signature on it. “We’re dismantling an

Closures: Oyster River School ‘integral to the community’
Continued from Pg. 1
Discovery Passage two nights earlier. Not everyone at the meeting felt that way, however. Strathcona Regional District director for Area D – in which Oyster River is situated – Brenda Leigh, said she, “was really not too
impressed,” with the evening. “I noticed that there were many people who didn’t fully participate because they wanted to speak and they were upset and couldn’t easily condense their thoughts into little one-liners on the table top,” Leigh said. “It was designed to be
a non-consultation, as I sense that the school administration has its minds made up.” Leigh also presented the board with a letter expressing her concerns. “I know, first-hand, the trauma that a school closure can cause,” she wrote. “I have lived through the closure of
Maple Elementary in my area when my sons were in attendance. I suffered from the stress of that process as did my friends and family. It was a devastating process.” She also called Oyster River Elementary, “integral to the Oyster River community,” claiming closure will negatively affect the nearby business hub, dissuade potential families from moving to the area, as well as lower property values of those who live nearby. Alternative proposals from those gathered in the gym ranged from closing another facility instead – Robron Centre was raised as a costly, aging and underutilized facility many
times – to restructuring the district’s grade configuration in order for buildings to be properly utilized. Another suggestion, as was also suggested at Discovery Passage, was to shift the school closures into Phase Two of the district’s Facility Plan, and move parts of Phase Two up into Phase One – specifically the redrawing of district catchment lines to increase the enrolment at some of these underutilized schools and the disposing of the district’s surplus properties to make up for some of the current budget shortfall. That would give the communities in which these schools are situated some time to figure out
alternatives to closure. A concern that came up numerous times at Wednesday’s meeting was the safety of children in transporting them the long distance to Ocean Grove. The O yster River area is not well-lit – many areas don’t even have streetlights – and is immediately surrounded by wilderness. The words “cougars” and “bears” came up more than once when discussing children out waiting for the bus. “We’re talking about putting four year olds on the side of the highway – because there are four year olds who are starting kindergarten – waiting for a school bus at, say, 7:30 in the morning and not seeing those kids

Complaints: Officers lauded
New towing powers approved Kristen Douglas CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
City council has approved a bylaw amendment that gives the city the authority to tow away illegally parked boat and travel trailers. The city already has the legal means to tow or remove motor vehicles from highways or other public places but utility, boat and travel trailers fell outside the law. City Clerk Peter Wipper said for the most part, the existing bylaw has been effective in dealing with vehicles parked illegally without having to take extreme measures, but sometimes further action is warranted.
“While the provisions in this section have proven to be effective, there is on occasion the need to facilitate the towing of a utility, boat or travel trailer for non-compliance when all other options have been exhausted,” Wipper said. Last year, of the 178 complaint files relating to parking, 37 involved utility, boat or travel trailers, according to Wipper. Of the 54 illegal parking complaints reported to City Hall in 2015, nine were related to ‘heavy vehicle.’ Most parking infractions were resolved through a verbal warning, but two were considered ‘subject to tow.’
Continued from Pg. 1
bylaw infractions appear to be on the rise, with 291 complaints in 2012, 372 in 2013, 414 in 2014 and 555 last year. “If somebody were to look at the first chart they would say ‘wow, we’re having worse things happening.’” Mayor Andy Adams said that’s likely because the city now has two bylaw officers, which means the city has more resources at its disposal to deal with complaints.

It’s a fact proven time and again by many thousands of Canadians: Contributing to investments held within a Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) is often the best way to save for retirement. It is also an indisputable fact that missing the deadline for making your maximum 2015 contribution can be costly. Here’s why: • • If you are in a high income bracket this year but will have a lower marginal tax rate in a future year, your tax benefit from that future RRSP contribution will also be lower.
City Clerk Peter Wipper agreed with Adams’ assessment. “I think it’s their outstanding job that’s making it happen,” Wipper said. “You’re getting a great response from these officers and word gets out that if you call City Hall you get action. People tell their friends and they think ‘I have a problem in my neighbourhood, I should call.’ I believe that’s probably how the word is getting out.” “So in other words, this

INTO
A Look Back
THE HISTORY OF THE CAMPBELL RIVER AREA
Railway logging and a fascination with trains Catherine Gilbert MUsEUM At CAMPBELL RIVER
R
ailway logging became an essential part of the logging industry on Vancouver Island from the 1900s right through to the 1950s. When loggers came to Vancouver Island and the adjacent islands in the late 1800s, they were able to harvest timber that grew right along the shorelines. As these stands were depleted, they ventured inland, and horses and oxen were used to haul the logs out and down to shore to be shipped. Railway logging developed out of the need to access stands of timber that were even further back in the bush and before long, there were miles of networks of rail reaching into the interior of Vancouver Island and on some of the other outlying islands. Robert D. Turner in Logging By Rail, the British Columbia Story wrote that “all along the coast and in a few interior locations, the hills echoed to the sound of the whistles of the locomotives.” Initially it was smaller and midsized companies that undertook railway logging, and Howard White in Raincoast Chronicles First Five remarked that “Few people realize just how many logging railroads there were. After 1930, it was pretty well just the big outfits that had them, but before that they were all over the coast, with the greatest number on Vancouver Island.”

A locomotive at work in the woods.
During the boom years of the 1920s, manufacturers were striving to keep up with the number of orders for locomotives from logging companies, and they were continually trying to improve the equipment. Even so, these steam driven machines could break down, and maintenance on locomotives in the woods presented many problems to the crews, who took pride in their equipment and their ability to maintain it. In Campbell River during those years, International Timber Company had one of

the largest logging railroad operations on Vancouver Island. These assets were then taken over by Elk River Timber Company in 1930. One of Elk River Timber’s chief camps was Camp Eight, located 15 kilometres west of Campbell River at Echo Lake. Bloedel, Stewart and Welch had an impressive rail operation at Menzies Bay, and their railways ran from the bay reaching inland to the forest lands.

people, including 40 families, and even had its own school. Some self-sufficient camps evolved into communities – like Camp Five at Brewster Lake, and the Rock Bay and Nimpkish Camps. Salmon River Logging brought about 200 workers into Kelsey Bay in 1938 and operated a rail logging concern. Although most workers were transient, some stayed in Kelsey Bay and became part of the community. Woss Camp (between Sayward and Port McNeill) is the only remaining railroad log-
ging camp and operation in British Columbia. By the 1930s, only the larger companies kept trains running in the west coast forests. Just like horses and oxen, trains had their limitations. They could only be used where the terrain was relatively flat, and were unable to go up steep grades. Trucks, which made their first appearance in the logging industry prior to WWI, were becoming the preferred method of transporting logs as they could access steep inclines and haul logs along steeper grades. As truck logging became increasingly popular, this spelled the demise of camp life, as men could easily commute to and from home on the roads built for logging trucks. In time, most of the rail lines were pulled up and the trestle bridges dismantled, but parts of lines and trestles can still been seen in the woods in places such as Camp Lake, Loveland Bay, Goose Neck Lake and along the road to Rock Bay. Railways and trains still hold great fascination for many, as evidenced by the well-attended Train Show the Museum holds every year, put on by the North Island Model Railroaders. This year the event is taking place January 30 and 31. To learn more about the Campbell River region’s more prominent logging camps, and their trusty steam engines, come see Logging Locomotives, a photographic exhibit in the Museum’s temporary gallery, until Feb. 21.

anitobans, under ne w leg islat ion introduced Jan. 18, will be able to sue someone in civil court if they share – or even threaten to share – “intimate images.” The Intimate Image Protection Act applies to a victim who can be identified in a photo or video while nude or engaged in a sexual act that was taken with the expectation of privacy. It’s well past due. Until recently, I was of the opinion that if you don’t want naked pictures of yourself to be out in the world, don’t be naked in pictures. But the world isn’t black and white, and neither are solutions to problems like this. People make mistakes. People make decisions they later regret. These are simple truths, and when that mistake or regret is simply posing for a photo for the enjoyment of one’s sexual partner, that decision shouldn’t be one that affects someone’s

When you live on an island in the Pacific, is it reasonable to expect the same services, prices and access to provincial/national road networks as those who live in North America proper? This week, the provincial government said an engineering report shows a fixed link — a bridge — between Nanaimo and Gabriola Island is not financially feasible. According to the province, the bridge would cost $258 million to $520 million, depending on the chosen route. Petitions asking Gabriola residents about a bridge to Vancouver Island were presented to the Legislature in 2014. One had 700 signatures in favour, another 3,400 against. The approximate population of Gabriola is 4,000. It seems pretty clear the vast majority of GabrioWe say: There lians do not want a fixed link to Nanaimo. We’d are trade-offs suggest these people get associated with it. Every year or so, talk life on the Island surfaces about a possible fixed link between Victoria and the Lower Mainland, island hopping until it has to cross 20 km of waters that are as much as 400 metres deep. For comparison purposes, it cost $1 billion in mid-1990s money to build the 13 km Confederation Bridge linking PEI to New Brunswick. What’s next, a bridge to Denman Island from Buckley Bay? How about linking Campbell River with Quadra Island? That’s only a quick kayak away. A bridge from French Creek to Lasqueti? The issues surrounding B.C. Ferries complicate the matter, of course. It gets more expensive every year to island hop or get to the Lower Mainland. And there are constant cuts to the frequency of sailings. While we continue to believe ferries, for certain routes, should be treated as extensions of the Trans Canada Highway and get more federal government funding, the notion that more and more service should be provided for less and less money is absurd. We live in arguably the most beautiful place in the country. We do not face the winters the vast majority of Canadians face every year. There are costs associated with those luxuries, trade-offs if you will. Expecting to pay a similar price for food and gasoline as people in, say, Abbotsford, is not logical. We need to choose our battles and create better strategies. Here are two: we need to put more pressure on the federal government to support the big hops between the Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island; and we need to develop more locally-grown food operations. -Black Press

with. Importantly, the province is also investing money into the Canadian Centre for Child Protection, who operate Cybertip. ca, who will assist those who have been affected by the sharing of these types of images, particularly in the removal of them from the Internet (no small task, because once an image is out there, it’s way out there). I think this Act would be a good benchmark to follow for the rest of Canada, along with additional resources devoted to helping with the mental and emotional stress of victims. Someone who shares what are supposed to be private photos or video with the world without the permission of everyone in said photos or video is a terrible person, and there needs to be repercussions for being a terrible person. Manitoba has made it so there are, and the rest of Canada should do the same.

Some dog-walkers are treating Dick Murphy Park like crap My disappointment turned to disgust after walking my two little dogs at the Campbell River’s premiere park facility and crown jewel of our parks system, Dick Murphy Park, also known as “The Spit.” No doubt the city, at some point, has plans to clean up nature’s debris that has been littered over the asphalt walkway as part of a maintenance program. When this will happen is up to City Hall. Of more concern is the amount of feces spread along and on the walkway. Despite ample free
poop bags and depository bins, there seems to be an individual or individuals who allow their pets free reign on depositing their dog’s deposits wherever they please. And this is disgusting. In discussing the issue with a number of other dog owners, the consensus is that someone is deliberately doing this, possibly at night, as the popular park has many watchful users during the day, who are equally concerned with this issue. Surely, if a group of North Vancouver
FINAL
mountain bikers can photograph 64-year-old Tineke Krall sabotaging a popular local hiking/ biking trail in their area, a similar approach may work here. Perhaps the good people of Campbell River can also take some time to patrol the park, camera in hand, to record and eventually lay appropriate charges to the offender(s). If a public outcry or lesson in public pride is not enough, perhaps a financial reprimand and criminal record is needed. Ron Dworski Campbell River
I would like to express my objection to the cessation of home mail delivery to Canada Post’s urban clients in Campbell River. I would like Canada Post to consider restoring home mail delivery. The cessation of service and the introduction of the community mail boxes was done without asking whether clients would approve of this. The construction of the mailboxes has altered our local landscape. And done so in a negative way. Some boxes obstruct the view. Most have downgraded our view of the local neighbourhoods. The new mailboxes were constructed in a seemingly haphazard and rushed way (to meet a deadline perhaps?). There are three mailboxes on sites cut into the
2015 7x9.5
grass verge within a block near my house. The boxes have certainly changed our neighbourhoods. Perhaps lowered property values too. Did the city get paid to allow Canada Post to install the boxes on City property? I would like to know how much the construction of the mailboxes has cost us. And how much does Canada Post reckon it will save by laying off the postal workers who used to deliver our mail? Will reducing the workforce increase its bottom line? By how much, weighed alongside the cost of installing the boxes? Is this a socially conscious way to operate a national service that is supposed to serve the citizens of
Canada? I can, unlike some others, go to my local mailbox to get my mail. I miss the visit by my postal worker to my doorstep. It was always a friendly visit and was somewhat reassuring – a welcome ritual which somehow, I felt, kept the neighbourhood together. The deliveryperson could notice anything untoward and do something about it. Come on, Canada Post. Do the right thing. Give us our door-todoor mail delivery back. I dunno what you’re going to do with the mailbox sites and the mailboxes – you created them so you figure out how to restore our neighbourhoods’ landscape. Hugh Smith Campbell River

City scraps proposed records check fee Kristen Douglas
CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
The city has abandoned plans to charge volunteers for police information checks following a public backlash. Council, at its Monday meeting, had a proposal before them from city staff to increase the fee for checks related to employment from $40 to $50, to charge $50 to Campbell River residents wanting to volunteer outside of the city, and to eliminate free checks for volunteers and instead charge them $10. But Louise Howes, the executive director of Volunteer Campbell River, came to the meeting armed with accounts from several non-profits urging council to scrap the plan. The John Howard Society and KidStart program wrote that “a $10 fee would represent a barrier to some of my volunteers and a deterrent to others. It would be wonderful if the city and RCMP would support volunteerism loudly by continuing free checks for volunteers.” But the Campbell River Hospital’s volunteer program and Yucalta Lodge wrote that “we understand volunteers may be offended to pay a cost to be screened when they’re freely giving their time to volunteer in our community.” City staff had been recommending the fee in order to help reduce the volume of criminal record checks and subsequent wait times. Carrie Jacobs, the city’s RCMP municipal man-
ager, said the $10 fee for volunteers – which was reduced from the originally proposed $25 – would partially offset processing costs while recognizing the considerable efforts and dedication of volunteers. City staff said for those who couldn’t afford the fee, that free criminal record checks for volunteers can be done online through the BC Ministry of Justice, but only for organizations that are registered with the ministry. The cost to register, however, is too much for some organizations. Howes said the Campbell River Air Youth Association said to take on such an expense would mean sacrifices. “Every $1 taken for operating expenses, such as screening, is a dollar taken from the development of our youth.” Howes pleaded with council to do the right thing. “Is it fair to tell a volunteer they will pay for a screening process to be completed or for an agency already tight on money to come up with additional funds to support their already lean volunteer programs?” Howes questioned. “Volunteers shape our community. “Shouldn’t we b e engaging volunteers, not making barriers for them and the agencies they work with? “ R e m e m b e r, v o l unteers are not paid because they’re useless but because they’re priceless.” Coun. Larry Samson agreed, and urged council to show its support for
volunteers and the nonprofits that would have a difficult time paying for the checks for its volunteers. “Volunteers are one of the most important resources a community has,” Samson said, “and organizations in the community are struggling to meet their operating needs. “They only have so much money and if we take that money away from them, that means $10 less to go out and deliver the service the organization is so proud of, so it will have an impact.” Samson also pointed out that council, during its budget planning sessions in December, was told by city staff that the RCMP budget – which didn’t include an increase – was sufficient enough to keep staffing levels where they need to be. “We were told by our staff that $9 million would sufficiently cover their needs,” said Samson, noting that council even allocated funding for a staff position that would assist with criminal record checks. “I urge council to stay ‘let’s leave it as it is,’” he said. “Volunteers are one of the most important assets to our community and I think the $10 we’re going to receive, I don’t think will make a difference to the RCMP budget.” Council, without further discussion, appeared to agree with Samson as it unanimously approved scrapping the recommended fees for police information checks.

Campbell River Peewee Tyees’ Parker Bell breaks past a Clippers defender and looks up ice for his teammates during Saturday’s dominant 5-0 win at home.
Cermaq City Wave tightens grip on first Cermaq City Wave FC, our local Men’s Soccer team consolidated their position at the top of the Vancouver Island Division Two with an excellent 3-0 victory over Vantreights FC in Victoria this past Sunday afternoon. The home team had only lost two games all season and had hopes of an outside shot at promotion going into this game. For Cermaq, they knew a victory would put more pressure on the chasing pack. The day before the game second
and third placed Prospect Lake and Lakehill had played to an exciting 1-1 draw the night before but in doing so each had dropped a valuable two points. Cermaq started like the proverbial “house on fire” and raced into a remarkable three goal lead within 17 minutes. After five minutes some excellent work down the right flank saw Wyatt Bryce earn a free kick which was taken by Eddie Lawson. The free kick was swung in at great pace and all the
unfortunate Vantreights defender could do was to head the ball into his own net. Five minutes later a flowing move from back to front saw an incisive pass from Lawson to Hans Aunet who calmly slotted the ball into the back of the net as the keeper advanced. A similar excellent passing move saw Lawson again in the action and scoring the third goal of the game. Vantreights battled back well and held their own until the half. The second half was an even affair with Cer-
maq content to sit back and hold on to what they had and Vantreights pushing bravely forward. Midfield players, Robbie Shaw, Pete McWilliams, Edgar Cramner and Matt Woof were solid in the tackle and unselfish in distribution. At the back Colan Grootenboer, Antho Seville, Jacob Blanchard, Eric Smith and Ray Wilson did well to thwart the speedy Vantreights forwards. Certainly Cermaq keeper Wylie Roberts had to be sharp on a number of occasions to
keep any hope of a fight back at bay. The final score finished 3-0 for Cermaq. The Campbell River side has three remaining league games. This Sunday, Jan. 31 they travel to Powell River. A victory would put Cermaq within touching distance of promotion, a defeat would return them to a three way fight for the two precious promotion spots with Prospect Lake and Lakehill. On Saturday Feb. 06 Cermaq entertain Lakehill on the Robron turf at 2 p.m.

He loves to play centre and his favourite hockey moment this season was his breakaway goal to put his team ahead in the final minutes of the last game of the tournament. It was one for the highlight reel! You can often find Jackson taking the game to the streets to play road hockey. Jackson is hard working and plays with tenacity, and is a great teammate on and off the ice.

John Twigg, who hosts the local cable television show Talk About, invited me to be a guest and talk about the local fishing scene in Campbell River.
John had brought about a number of questions and one of the main stories discussed was the This Sunday I will be at Tyee upcoming Salmon Derby put on Marine in Courtenay at 11 a.m. by Royal Lepage Advance Realty and my first session of beginning and the date that Mark Ranniger fly tying will be held free of gave me was June 11.

Eden Street: Elegance off the beaten track John Twigg SPECIAL tO thE MIRROR
A
s the only business for miles around it’s fair to say that Eden Street Salon and Day Spa stands out as one of the more amazing yet lesser-known business success stories in Campbell River - except you wouldn’t notice it unless you’re one of the many people who have become regular customers. The business is now in its 15th year at 2701 Eden Street in the midst of the Georgia Park subdivision on the south side of Campbell River and in fact it occupies 3,600 square feet in what was once the twostorey office of the company that started the subdivision. Though it’s a bit difficult to find (turn off of South Alder onto Hud-
son - it’s near a school) that hasn’t stopped Eden Street from winning awards for excellent service and indeed the relative privacy may be part of its cachet: it bills itself as “an elegant and intimate retreat in the heart of Georgia Park�. The business was founded by Laurie Dystant in 2001 and Candice Lowery, a friend of Dystant’s, bought it about 13 years ago with the aid of financing and a strong business plan which continues to include the advice and services of an industry consultant, Spaformation. “My business is service-based so it needs a wonderful team who are focused on giving customers the best experience possible,� says Lowery. Though Lowery is well-educated in the various services and

products, she finds her main role now is leading the team of service providers to help them continue making customers want to come back, which they do despite the rising number of
unregulated and homebased competitors. Lowery says she enjoys going to work every day in a high-end facility that offers value to its customers, who include not only women
getting their hair and nails done but also men coming in for haircuts and both men and women coming in for spa treatments such as massages. Tellingly, the business includes an ele-
vator that enables customers in wheelchairs to easily reach the massage beds on the second floor, which reflects the business’s emphasis on customer comforts. The business also
has evolved with the changing times, such as having a strong website and social media presence that now includes online reservations as well as gift certificate purchases. She also advertises regularly in print, radio and online with a variety of spa specials and new featured products. Nonetheless, word of mouth is still a key factor in attracting regular local clients and Lowery rewards their loyalty. “As a business all you can control is what kind of experience you offer your guest to make sure it is a visit they will remember well and want to return time and time again,� she says convincingly from experience. Visit www.edenstreetspa.com or phone 250-923-2086. It opens every day except Sundays.
Council crafts legislative framework for brewery KrisTen Douglas CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
City council strayed from its normal practise Monday night in order to fast track a new craft brewery for downtown Campbell River. Rather than give third reading and adoption to a bylaw at two separate meetings, council did both at its Monday meeting, to allow ‘craft brewing’ as a permitted
use on the 11th Avenue lot where the brewery intends to set up shop. Chris Osborne, the city’s senior planner, said council had the option to do both at the same meeting because there were no conditions placed on the rezoning. “Staff has not identified any conditions as being necessary and no input from the public hearing has changed this view,� Osborne said. “To
date, all public input to this application has been supportive and the proposal has not proven to be contentious.� The proposal is for a craft brewery – Beach Fire Brewing and Nosh House – run by entrepreneurs Darrin Finnerty, Matthew Fox and Laura Gosnell that’s intended to be more than just a brewery. Fox said the atmosphere will be akin to that
in the bar on the popular TV series Cheers, where social engagement is encouraged over tapas and quality craft beer, and where everyone is welcome. “We love gett ing together with our friends and we love a place where everyone knows our name,� Fox said during a public hearing for the rezoning Jan. 11. At that meeting, a packed council gallery
turned out to show support for the brewery. Several people spoke in favour of the brewery and praised the innovative concept for Campbell River, including representatives from the Downtown Business Improvement Association (BIA) and the Young Professionals of Campbell River group. Council, taking all of that into consideration, on Monday unanimously
approved the rezoning for 11th Avenue and at the same time, also gave third reading to a bylaw amendment to allow ‘craft brewing’ in all of the city’s four commercial-1 zonings. Osborne said the area in question encompasses largely all of downtown east of Ironwood Road. Coun. Charlie Cornfield wanted to know whether the community had been consulted on
adding ‘craft brewing’ in all of those zones. Osborne said no additional consultation was carried out other than the public hearing. Coun. Michele Babchuk said she was satisfied that was sufficient. “It was my understanding from what we heard at the last meeting, a lot of those organizations were represented and we heard dramatic support for all of that,� she said.

New fitness centre goes industrial – zoning-wise, at the very least Kristen Douglas CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
A fitness centre can temporarily take up residence inside an industrial building after council made an exception to its zoning bylaw Monday night. The owner of the building at 1661 15th Ave. discovered while applying for a business licence that the gym, to be operated on the ground floor of the twostorey building, was not a permitted use for that site. Rather than abandon all plans for the fitness centre, the owner instead applied to the city for a temporary use permit. “Council has the power under…the Local Government Act to permit a land use in a zone where the land use would not otherwise be permitted,”
said Matthew Fitzgerald, city planner, in a report to council. “The legislation defers parameters for such approval to the community’s Official Community Plan.” The except ion is allowed for up to three years and may b e extended for three more years with the approval of council. The fitness centre proposed for the site – KB Strength & Wellness – is expected to focus on personal training, small group classes and nutritional consulting. Krista Boulding, in a letter of intent to the city, said her gym will help increase the amount of people coming into Campbellton. “I believe having a wellness facility in the area will bring positive change to the community,” Boulding wrote. “Located across the
street from the building in question there is a spa facility and a therapeutic centre offering massage, physio, and chiropractic. Adding a fitness facility to the neighbourhood will benefit my business as well as others through cross referrals and increased traffic. This will bring more awareness to all that Campbellton has to offer.” Boulding added that the gym is in an ideal spot with respect to parking as there are ample spots available. Fitzgerald, in recommending council approve the permit, said the city has more than enough land zoned and designated for industrial uses, without retaining the 15th Avenue site. “The city has a greater than 50 year supply of land zoned and designated for industrial
uses,” Fitzgerald said. “This greatly exceeds a typical industrial land reserve – usually between 20-25 years of supply is the target for planning purposes. With this in mind, there may be justification for allowing additional land uses into these areas to absorb vacant space and add services for those employed and living in the area.” On the other hand, Fitzgerald said because the rezoning is temporary, that does ensure the industrial land is not permanently converted and therefore, it could one day again be used for industrial purposes when demand returns. In the end, council agreed with city staff ’s recommendation and approved the a threeyear temporary use permit.

AMPBELLTON Neighbourhood AssociAtioN
CAMPBELLTON
What is the CNA all about? By Ann Hazlett
The Campbellton Neighbourhood Association is a non-profit society, incorporated in 2014, began in 2011, consisting of business owners and citizens who are very interested in improving the Campbellton area for both businesses and residents. Some of us both live and work in the area; all of us are interested in making Campbellton an area that is a supportive, productive and beautiful place to work and live. But the CNA is not able to obtain their objectives without a lot of dedicated volunteers. Volunteers offer their time or funds, and in some cases both, to advance projects that they consider important for everyone.
and a new set will be installed in the spring.
There is no charge to the organization they are volunteering to help as, for most volunteers, they view it as a way of saying thank you and paying it forward. Personally, when I was working full time and my children were young, I did not have much time to volunteer for things I consider important. So at that time, my way of contributing was to become a monthly donor for organizations I believe in. Signing petitions was another

This has only been achievable due to dedication and hard work. We will be looking for volunteers of both materials and time to complete this phase of the project. Anyone who is able to provide donations of funds, materials or time, please contact Brian Shaw at briathepiper@gmail.com or 250287-9907.

The city will be making changes to the rules governing property tax exemptions given to community groups and other non-profits. Council, at its Monday meeting, approved amending the permissive tax exemption grant policy to provide better clarity around eligibility requirements. The city’s Community Partnership Committee, which is tasked each year with evaluating applications for the tax breaks, is recommending changes that include changing the length of permissive exemptions, implementing a cap on the value of the exemptions, and placing some new conditions on the tax breaks. Lesia Davis, chair of the Community Partnership Committee, wrote in a report to council that the city should cap permissive tax exemptions at 1.4 per cent of the general tax levy for each year. “Requests for permissive exemptions are ever increasing, and while the granting of permissive exemptions does not directly affect the city’s budget, as additional tax exemptions are granted it places a heavier tax burden on the remaining non-exempt properties,” Davis wrote. This year, 75 groups will receive permissive tax exemptions, totalling $755,901 while in 2015, more than $898,000 in tax exemptions were given to 74 community groups. In 2014, 69 grants were given, totalling $816,602. Under the new changes soon to come, groups will only be eligible for permissive tax exemptions if they are not already receiving a grant-in-aid from the city, and vice-versa. The Community Partnership Committee is also recommending that multi-year exemptions be capped at five years, and that benefitting groups enter into an agreement with the city to repay exempted taxes if the organization transfers the property. “An agreement may be entered into requiring payment of the foregone tax revenue, should the benefitting organization sell or transfer the subject property to another organization, or should the property change uses such that the organization no longer qualifies for a PTE (permissive tax exemption),” Davis wrote. The city’s permissive tax exemptions are designed to support non-profit community groups that add to Campbell River’s quality of life. To receive the tax break, the group must be a notfor-profit or a charitable or philanthropic organization that benefits the community either through: recreation; providing programs that benefit youth, seniors or other special needs groups; preserving heritage important to the community; preserving an environmentally significant area; offering cultural or educational programs; or offering services to the public in partnership with the city.

Kendall-Jackson’s vineyards include 11,000 acres of cool California coastal regions atop mountains, ridges, hillsides and benchlands.

Pisaster disaster: Starfish population watched Extinction or just a natural cycle, opinions differ Mike Davies CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Scientists investigating the epidemic afflicting the Pisaster sea stars common in our waters met in Seattle last week to discuss the latest findings, and there wasn’t much good news to share. “This is, if not the, certainly one of the biggest wildlife die-offs that have ever been recorded,” Dr. Martin Haulena, veterinarian with the Vancouver Aquarium told the CBC after the workshop, “and we’re not just talking marine die-offs.” Haulena, in the CBC report, called the Pisaster a “keystone species” – a species whose presence controls the ecosystem they live in to a large degree – and said its drastic change in population, “has ramifications up and down the food chain.”
In 2014, scientists isolated the virus they are relatively certain is causing the disease, which essentially causes the sea star to disintegrate into slime, but they still don’t know what caused the outbreak, how exactly the virus gets into the animal, or why the virus – which has been found preserved in perfectly healthy sea stars for decades – is suddenly causing the scourge. Sandra Milligan, who teaches biology here in Campbell River at North Island College and has been studying the Pisaster’s decline extensively at Willow Point Reef over the years, says it was “definitely shocking” when the mass die-off began a couple of years ago, but our area doesn’t seem to have been hit as hard as others. “The situation here does not seem to be as bad as in the CBC
report,” Milligan says, “though the numbers are quite low.” “I’ve been out for the last few good low tides and a ball park estimate would be that we have maybe 25 to 50 per cent of the population numbers that were present three years ago.” But she also says there is some evidence to suggest the population – at least at Willow Point Reef – is rebounding somewhat. “We have seen quite a few juvenile Pisaster in the last few months,” she says, and at a walk with her biology class in November, they saw four juvenile Pycnopodia (the very large sunflower sea star), which she says, “were absent from the reef for all of 2014 and summer of 2015.” So Milligan, at least, is being somewhat of an optimist about the whole situation. “I tend to be someone who thinks about changes to the planet in terms of thousands of years, rather than

year-to-year,” she says. “Two similar die-offs occurred in Oregon in
the 1980s and 1990s. “In some locations it took up to 15 years for
the Pisaster to come back to original numbers,” but they did come

CAMPBELL RIVER
BOOMERS & Beyond Calling all unpublished BC senior writers: Year Two of the Cedric Awards starts Feb. 1st Alistair Taylor, Campbell River Mirror
The book builds a convincing world and it was enjoyable to get a glimpse into each life.”
Building on the success of last year’s inaugural Cedric Literary Awards, BC writers of a certain age are once again being encouraged to submit their unpublished works of fiction, creative non-fiction and poetry to this year’s competition. Cedrics Executive Director Veronica Osborn says: “Unpublished BC writers aged 50 and better can submit their work between Feb. 1 and May 1 when the call for submissions will close. If last year’s competition is anything to go by, we know this year’s competition will attract a high level of interest in this first-in-Canada writing program.” In its first year, The Cedric Literary Awards received 168 submissions from writers from Pink Mountain to Langley and from Fort St.
Better Than 50 publisher and award presenter Brian Kieran congratulates one of last year’s winning authors D. Ross Fisher along with Cedric awards executive director Veronica Osborn.
James to Victoria; each vying for one of the $3,000 prizes awarded in four categories. In addition to English-speaking writers, the awards program recognizes there are many writers who are writing in French, and wants to encourage more of them to consider entering their work in this year’s competition. Similarly, the Cedrics received a number of manuscripts from
First Nations writers last year; more will be welcome in 2016. Cedrics founder Peter Dale says: “We are changing the landscape of literary awards programs in Canada by providing a unique platform to recognize and reward unpublished English and French-speaking authors of fiction, creative non-fiction and poetry, and First Nations writers, age 50 and better.”
Campbell River’s D. Ross Fisher, 59, received an honourable mention in the fiction category of last year’s inaugural Cedric Literary Awards for unpublished BC writers aged 50 or better. His entry, “Raincoast Sketches (Of a Small Town)” was described by the judges as “a well-written series of vignettes about characters all living in the same small coastal town – all unique and living believable lives.
Tips for The Immune System Part Two Dr. Ingrid Pincott, ND
So many things can affect the immune system and stress is one of them. If you are doing everything “right” and still getting sick, here are a few more ideas to consider. Stress can be emotional, physical, environmental or nutritional. Stress sends out inflammatory immune factors such as IL6 that cause inflammation. Stress reduces NK (natural killer cells) that play a vital role against viral infections and cancer cells. Stress produces nerve growth factors (NGF) that inhibits the body’s ability to fight off infections. There are simple questionnaires to evaluate your level of stress that impacts your immune system and then there are simple life style measures to reduce this stress. Gut and the immune system connection: 70% of your immune system resides in the
gut in the form of gut associated lymph tissue (GALT). The health of the GALT determines if you have leaky gut syndrome and multiple allergies. The gut microbiome is also critical for overall immunity. Adrenal fatigue can lead to blood sugars that are too high or too low, insulin resistance, underactive thyroid function, insomnia and allergies. Toxins, nutritional deficiencies and an acidic body all contribute to inflammation and increased risk of immune system dysregulation. Dr. Pincott will lecture further on this topic at Berwick on Tuesday Feb 2nd at 1-2pm to give you more tools to boost your immune system. RSVP with Wendy at 250- 8501353.
Three other Vancouver Island writers were each presented with $3,000 awards in front of a packed audience at a special reception held in Victoria this past Saturday. They are: Margitta Maud, 76, of Duncan for her creative non-fiction work “Out of Darkness;” Joel Scott, 75, of Chemainus for his work of fiction “Arrows Flight;” and Susan Braley, 59, of Victoria for her poetry collection “The Imminence of Fracture.”
The fourth winner was: Irene Lynxleg, 75, a First Nations writer from Vancouver for her short story “Keesis’s Trimble Park Diary.” Authors

OF GREEN Ray Grigg
Carbon dioxide is the culprit that usually gets more attention as a greenhouse gas than its lesser-known cohort, methane. But the equally colourless and odourless methane is also a major contributor to global climate change. Indeed, methane, chemically composed of one carbon and four hydrogens atoms (CH4), can have warming effects that are 28 times more warming than CO2 over a 100 year period. Like carbon dioxide, methane’s concentration has also increased in the atmosphere since the Industrial Revolution. Whereas carbon dioxide has risen from 280 parts per million to 400 ppm, about 43 per cent, methane has jumped from 722 ppm to 1,893 ppm, a rise of 162 per cent. Methane is emitted naturally from the decomposi-
primary culprit. The fracturing of methane-rich strata to release natural gas is a risky and unpredictable practice. Wells get contaminated, sometimes with enough methane to be ignited at the end of water hoses and taps. Because the gas is invisible and odourless, its escape from induced ground fissures can be difficult to detect and quantify. And sometimes the best of plans can go very wrong. The latest example is a massive leak in California, an ecological disaster which may rival BP’s oil blowout in the Gulf of Mexico. Collected natural gas is sometimes pumped and stored kilometres underground in strata — about 400 such storage sites are located in the US. This particular one, the Aliso Canyon National Gas Storage Facility, operated by the Southern California
Campbell River Joins Venues for #Purple4PEDAW
Gas Company (SoCalGas), was first reported leaking on Oct. 23, probably from a fractured pipe deep below the surface. By the end of December, it had leaked 72,000 tonnes of methane. It is currently leaking about 30.3 tonnes per hour — 25 per cent of California’s annual 20 million tonnes — with little chance that it can be stopped before March, 2016. Staunching such a leak is extremely difficult and dangerous. This is a gas under huge pressure, extremely flammable and explosive — it could easily be ignited by a spark of static electricity. Methane is a reminder that we must transition as soon as possible to clean renewable energies. We have another 84 years to reach zero emissions. Can we do it? Not if we can’t manage our methane.
The third annual #Purple4PEDAW event, hosted by the Provincial Eating Disorders Awareness (PEDAW) campaign and designed to bring awareness to eating disorders, will be adding a Campbell River location to a growing list of participating venues across the Province. On Feb. 5, members of the public are invited to wear purple, take photos of themselves and of any BC landmarks and share on the campaign’s Facebook bit.ly/ Purple4PEDAW2016 and Twitter (@loveourbodies) pages.

New mural Get a for artist’s sneak peak studio Artist Brian Scott is painting a new mural for the front of his Black Creek Studio. The subject is his brother Grant Scott’s fishboat, Wandelaine. The artist wanted a strong image to stand out on the front of his galleries/studio complex to attract visitors on the Old Island Highway. His sculpture garden also includes many local artists such as Tim Halley. ‘Wanda’ is a passion of Scott’s brother, Grant, who lives not only to fish but also hang out with other fishermen up and down the coast. This is the source of many of the stories the artist has used in his books. Wandelaine is more than 50 years old and has been through many refits over the years. She was not happy when brother Grant purchased Sun Corona, a larger fishboat so he could live his dream to fish in Haida Gwaii. The artist’s studio is open for visitors everyday from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Scott features two studios, one for oils and one for acrylic painting.
of new season
He has two out buildings as well as the main house. Each of the three art galleries features a different aspect of his work. Scott has global outreach with paintings done while travelling on cruise ships as well as his Arizona studio which he has since sold. His passion, however, is still Vancouver Island, fishboats, old salmon canneries, Pier Street and Haig Brown House. He has contributed more than $20,000 to the North Island College Foundation and Scott says he believes that if you give a student an A plus with a check for $1,000 it carries great weight. The artist received a similar scholarship when he was a student at Emily Carr in the 1970s.

GREG ALAN LASLO
September 25, 1943 - January 23, 2016
March 14, 1983 – January 30, 2005
It is with profound sadness we announce the passing of our loving father, grampy, great-grampy, brother, uncle and friend, William (Bill) Giesbrecht, on Saturday, January 23, 2016 after his courageous and stoic battle with cancer.
This day is remembered and quietly kept. No words are needed, we shall never forget. For those we love don’t go away, they walk beside us every day. Unseen and unheard, but always near. So loved, so missed, and so very dear. Lots of love, Mom, Christina & Michelle XOX
Bill was born in Morris, Manitoba on September 25, 1943. Predeceased by parents Bernhard and Annie, siblings Ronald, Elaine and Beverley.
DEATHS
He survived by son D. W. Murray Giesbrecht; grandchildren Caitlyn, Dylan, Jude, Taylor, Dayton, Kaylene, Kahayla, Louisa and daughter Cheryl McLean (nee Giesbrecht); grandchildren Carly, Lindsey, Katie and the apple of his eye, greatgranddaughter Blakeley. Siblings Doreen, Peter, Edna, Katherine, Viola, Vera, Marlene and many nieces and nephews. Bill and his family moved to Campbell River in the summer of 1978. Bill will be best remembered for his smile, laugh, quick wit, his love for life and generosity of putting everyone before himself. For those who knew him they will agree, it is hard to imagine a world without him. His love of mechanics served him well in his business at C.R. Auto and Marine and he made many friends and touched many lives through this career as a mechanic and fishing guide in the beautiful waters surrounding Campbell River. We want to offer our sincere thanks to the wonderful nursing staff at Campbell River Hospital for their loving, respectful and caring way with our father. Special thanks to Danielle, Evangeline, and Isabelle. You will forever be in our thoughts. A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, February 6, 2016 from 1:00-4:00pm at the Royal Coachman Pub- Carriage Room, 84 Dogwood Street, Campbell River, BC. FUNERAL HOMES

DEATHS
HAINES, Lawrence Alvin May 1, 1930 – January 23, 2016
With saddened hearts Cindy, Earl and David held Dad’s hands as he sailed away on a full moon to join Mom. Dad passed away peacefully at home with his loved ones at his side. His wife Pat of 62 years, his parents Norene Kvello and Moody Haines, his sister Wilma and niece Marina predeceased him. He leaves behind his three children, their families and lifelong friends. Dad will be remembered as a gentleman and a great caring friend to many of all ages. He always had time to chat and give advice on many topics. He loved fishing and sailing as he spent most of his life on the sea. Those of you who knew Dad can appreciate his attention to detail and just how much his boats meant to him. The Christina B was an extension of who he was. We thank Home Care Nursing Services for their compassion and understanding as they assisted Dad on his journey. Dad wished to thank Dr. Duncan Douglas for his dedicated care and Dr. David James for his years of friendship. Please join us for Dad’s service Saturday, February 6 at 1:00 pm at St. Peter’s Anglican Church, Campbell River.
For those who love, time is not. Missing you today and always. FUNERAL HOMES

Lewis Waldo Turner March 12, 1923 – January 22, 2016
Born in Mulvihill, Manitoba to the late Elmer and Jennie Turner, Lewis departed this life with peace on January 22, 2016 at Yucalta Lodge. He was predeceased by his wife of 54 years, Annie “Maude” Turner, and his dear sister, Jane. His life ambitions included working for short stint as a machinist at McDonald Brothers Aircraft in Winnipeg prior to joining the war effort in 1943. As a member of the Royal Canadian Navy he was posted to Shearwater, Nova Scotia as a stoker man, retiring in 1969 at the rank of Chief Petty Officer 1st Class. His journey in life brought him and his family to the West Coast where he worked as a millwright in Ocean Falls and in Campbell River, where he was forced into retirement from Elk Falls Mill at the age of 65. He felt he was “far too young to retire” at that age and told us so often. He was an avid aircraft and motorcycle enthusiast, travelling to attend air shows and motorcycle races and spending countless weekends at Oshkosh, Westwood Motorsport Park in Coquitlam, Sears Point Raceway in California, even Daytona Beach. Lewis loved driving and tried his best to cover most of the highways in North America during his annual travels from West to East, North to South. He kept his family and friendships strongly connected with the visits he made along the way, often carrying family members along for the ride. A well-read and intelligent mind, he always had much to teach and share. A proud member of the Masonic Temple and Shriners, Lewis was a man of integrity, honesty and respect. He will be remembered as a man of honour and class, who encouraged us all to be our best. Lewis leaves behind three children, Leslie “Vicki” Turner (Bruce), Chris Turner (Dawn-Marie), and Tracy Petersen (Chris); three grandchildren, Marlena Turner (Nick), Amanda Turner, and Jennifer Lambert; several step grandchildren and great grandchildren; and nieces and nephews Erin, Glen, John, Johanne, and Stanley. He was loved and adored by his family, all of whom miss him very much. The family would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the staff of Yucalta Lodge who extended genuine kindness and care for our Dad during his lengthy stay. An informal service celebrating Lewis will be held at 1:00 p.m. on February 6th at Sequoia Springs Golf Course in Campbell River.
“...We remember now in love, Your life from start to end, And we’re just glad we knew you, As Father, Grandpa, and Friend.”

Celebrating Family Literacy Day
With help from children and youth services customer services librarian Emily Mathews, two-year-old Logan Majoros gets a chance to see what it's like to be part of a puppet show, to the delight of his mother Angela and his six-month-old sister Lacey following the National Family Literacy Day puppet show Jan. 27 at the Campbell River library. The library hosted two puppet shows that day as part of Family Literacy Week celebrations. Family Literacy Week wraps up this weekend with a Found Instruments Community Family Sing Along today (Friday) from 6-7 p.m. at Spirit Square, weather permitting (check literacyforall.ca to find out if it is still happening) and a sold-out Charlotte Diamond concert Saturday at the Tidemark Theatre.

Pacific Timber Supply Area – Information Package Available for Review and Comment Members of the public are invited to review and provide comments on the Timber Supply Review information package for the Pacific Timber Supply Area (TSA). The Pacific TSA covers roughly 698,000 ha and is composed of 30 Blocks — ranging in size from 76 ha - 405,000 ha — on Vancouver Island, the Sunshine Coast, the Mainland Coast and the Douglas Channel. The information package provides a general description and brief history of the TSA, and a draft of data that will be applied to the upcoming timber supply analysis. The timber supply analysis provides the province’s Chief Forester with information required to determine the allowable annual cut (AAC) — the maximum volume of timber to be harvested from the TSA — for the next 10 years. The Chief Forester will consider public and First Nations input, and other information required under the Forest Act when a new AAC is determined. Copies of the Pacific TSA information package are available online: http://www.for.gov.bc.ca/bcts/areas/tsg/tsg-tsr.htm or at the following Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations District locations: (Please call ahead to arrange an appointment.) •

Canadian Blood Services provides a safe, secure, cost-effective, affordable and accessible supply of quality blood, blood products and their alternatives. Canada is selfsufficient in blood and we are working to be self-reliant in plasma. Emerging risks and best practices are monitored continuously. Our blood and blood products are safe and of quality. We help hospitals improve blood utilization and surveillance. Donors actively support us and our donor base is strong and our volunteers continue to play a critical and meaningful role. When you give blood, you give life. Life for surgical patients, hemophiliacs, accident victims and cancer patients. It may even mean life for you or a family member someday. It’s so easy to do and takes only a few minutes, yet it means so much. What’s Your Blood Type? Everyone has two genes that determine their blood type, it’s passed on from parents to children, just like eye colour. While each parent has two genes, they contribute only one apiece. This process of combination can sometimes lead to children having different blood types than their parents. This chart shows your possible blood type based on the type of your parents. O negative (O-) is the universal donor type, which means it can be transfused to anyone in need. That’s why it’s always in high demand — it’s used in emergency situations when there is no time to test a patient’s blood type. People with AB+ blood are known as universal recipients, meaning they can receive blood from anyone. To find out more information on Blood, Stem Cells, Core Blood, Organs & Tissues, Financial Donations, Hospitals and Volunteering visit www.blood.ca.

The fundamental needs of children don’t change between the ages of 3 and 12 years-old. Joyce McMann, Family Place coordinator, and Cheryl Jordan, regional coordinator for Success by 6, told city council at its Monday meeting that the children were consulted through community early learning programs, health fairs, and a children’s conference. “The first step was to go to the children and ask them what they wanted,” McMann said. “They were very, very earnest in their commitment to help us out.”

amily, lots of love, a warm bed, and a safe home. Those were overwhelmingly the top responses Campbell River children gave when asked in a recent survey what they need to thrive and survive. The survey is part of the development of the city’s first Children’s Charter – a process that engaged 283 Campbell River children, approximately 7.5 per cent of the city’s 3,800 children
McMann said what stood out was how similar the children’s answers were among the different age groups. “Things like insurance, access to nature, first aid kits, dogs,” McMann said. “All of those were important pieces. Although some of the words were different depending on the age group we were talking to, the answers were remarkably similar.” Coun. Larry Samson wanted to know if there were any significant differences in the needs

of children, when compared to past generations. “We’re now seeing both parents are working, grandparents involved in raising the children. Are you seeing any unique things we need to be aware of if we hope to help these children thrive in our community?” Samson asked. McMann said while times have changed, the fundamental needs of children are still the same. “The world is changing but some things stay the same and that’s family,” McMann said. “The way in which families function may shift from generation to generation but the need for chil-
dren to have a family and a stable family and not have to worry if there’s food on the table or a cozy bed, that will be eternal.” McMann said that was evident in the answers that the children gave in their responses, though obviously not in those words. “Many said they needed a mommy and daddy, people to care about them – beds came up a lot,” McMann added. “Many said they needed lots of nature, lots of love, a safe house.” Those are all issues that Success by 6, in partnership with the Family Place, are striving to tackle in the Children’s Charter – a
vision and mission statement prompted by some sobering statistics shared with city council in recent years. Dr. Tanya Flood with Success by 6 told council last February that 22.8 per cent of Campbell River children under the age of six live in poverty, compared to the provincial average of 18.5 per cent and the national average of 13 per cent. In addition, roughly 500 Campbell River children under the age of 17 use the food bank monthly and 154 children up to age 16 were living in care as of November, 2014. Flood also told council at that time that Success by 6 was in the beginning stages of a Chil-

dren’s Charter to help address those issues. Council gave its full support for the charter and agreed to have city staff assist Success by 6 in any way possible. Now that vision is one step closer to reality. McMann said all of the children’s thoughts and ideas will be compiled and incorporated into a document that promotes a commitment from the city to the healthy development of all Campbell River children. A draft of the charter will be shared with city council before it’s approved. McMann said the group is hoping to have it finalized by the end of March.
