‘Keep striving forward’
After almost 40 years of substance abuse, Alfred Andrew is clean, sober and wanting to give back Mike Davies
I

t wasn’t too long ago that 52-year-old Alfred Andrew was being pushed by his friends in a shopping cart to the emergency shelter in downtown Campbell River because he was too drunk to get there himself. He had been going in and out of various recovery and counselling programs throughout his almost 40 years of substance abuse, but couldn’t make anything stick. He always ended up back on the street, using whatever drugs he could get his hands on, sleeping wherever he could find a warm spot – or at least one that was covered. The thought of facing the world without the drugs was not a thought he could handle. But he watched as those around him, living the lifestyle he was living, started dying from it. More than once, he ended up in hospital battling hypothermia from being out in the elements and being either unable to feel them, or unable to do anything about it. “I had no choice,” he says. “It was either continue on with what I was doing or die. “But I chose to live. And every day I make that choice again.” These days, instead of being pushed to the shelter in a shopping cart for a bed for the night, he helps run the facility.

Alfred Andrew used to be pushed to the Campbell River emergency shelter in a shopping cart because he was too drunk to get there on his own. Now, the 52-year-old helps run the facility, and hopes his example will be seen as a ray of hope for those still in the cycle of homelessness and addictions.
And he’ll be three years clean and sober as of this coming June. “He’s probably one of the ones that, a few years ago, we would have thought was unlikely to get it together,” says Pastor Art Van Holst
of Radiant Life Church, who oversees the emergency shelter’s operation. “But he did, and it’s just great. He’s a real asset to us, because he’s been there – he’s walked the walk – and people listen to him because

he can relate.” People like Andrew, Van Holst says, “are why we do what we do. Sometimes it can be frustrating, because you see people going through the cycle, through the
cycle. When you see people like him, doing what he’s doing, it makes all the effort – all your work – worthwhile. This is a wonderful story of not only seeing his own recovery but also that he wants to give back to help other people who are where he was and help them get through it.” For his part, Andrew sees his new life as an opportunity to affect change for others. “It’s an opportunity to be an example, a better example, a positive example, a role model, you know? To my street friends and family that are still out there, that I see nightly when I’m at work, I can be an example that there is hope for them to make that change, too.” He sees the possibility for change in some of them, as well, and will do whatever he can to help with that. “I can tell through conversing with them that some of them are close to that stage where they’re sick and tired of being sick and tired, you know? And they’re afraid of the light – and I know that feeling. I know that cycle,” he says, and he knows how great life can be once that cycle is broken, so he’ll do whatever he can to help others break it. He works three nights per week at the shelter, and he spends his days smiling like a man who loves his life because he knows it was nearly

Plan calls for 40 per cent urban tree cover

many benefits including shade, habitat for birds and insects, increasing property values on treelined streets, enhancing the ambience downtown and in residential neighbourhoods, and absorbing pollution. But while council as a whole supported the plan, not every councillor was truly on board. Coun. Larry Samson said he wasn’t happy that the plan will not take into account the Beaver Lodge Lands. “When we look at our city as a whole, and we take the area containment boundary, which is significantly smaller, and in that we take out

C it y c ou nc i l has endorsed a plan to increase the amount of tree cover over the city’s urban area by seven per cent within the next 20 years. At last week’s Tuesday meeting, council gave support in principle to an Urban Forest Management Plan that includes an “ambitious target” of 40 per cent tree cover by the year 2035. Currently, the percentage of tree cover within Campbell River city limits sits at 33 per cent, plus or minus two per cent. Chris Osborne, city planner, said the target is non-binding and there are no penalties or consequences of failing to meet the 40 per cent mark, which is the benchmark for the Pacific Northwest ecoregion. “This is an ambitious target since ongoing development generally serves to decrease, rather than increase, tree cover as sites are cleared,” Osborne said. “With no interventions as identi-

fied within the Urban Forest Management Plan, the ‘do-nothing’ scenario predicts that tree cover will diminish to 20 per cent by 2035. This assessment is based on the amount of unde-

over a 1,000 acres of the Beaver Lodge Lands, I think we’re hand-tying ourselves,” Samson said. Osborne said the reasoning behind excluding the Beaver Lodge Lands is that the plan is intended to apply only to the city’s urban area which leaves out both the Beaver Lodge Lands and Elk Falls Park. “The plan is focused firmly on the urban forest, and what can be achieved in terms of incorporating greater canopy cover within the built up area,” Osborne said. “The point is not to examine commercially forested lands (including Beaver Lodge
Lands) or remote rural areas and offset a lack of canopy cover in builtup areas with yet more trees within already-forested areas. To include these areas in this plan would undermine its core intent, which is to provide shade, cooling, stormwater runoff, wildlife habitat, etcetera, within built up areas.” The plan has been in development since 2011. The first phase included an extensive inventory of all the trees within the city’s urban boundary while the second phase involved establishment of the canopy coverage targets and actions. The plan was devel-
oped in consultation with Greenways Land Trust and the public through two open houses in the fall of both 2014 and 2015, as well as through an online survey which garnered approximately 200 responses. Now that council has supported the plan in principle, city staff will come back to council with options on how to go about increasing the spread of tree cover. Potential action items include planting trees on public lands and within roadways, as well as adding incentives to encourage private landowners to retain and plant trees on their own properties.

over long before it needed to be. His goal is eventually to work at a place like Second Chance, the men’s substance recovery house here in Campbell River, if someone will have him. He feels he can bring his experience from going through it himself to a role like that and be of real benefit to those still suffering in the cycle, just as he’s
doing now with the emergency shelter. And he’s well on his way to making that a reality. He already volunteers with Second Chance, when he can, and has just completed the Peer Support Training program through the Canadian Mental Health Association. That’s his only goal, though. He’s not making long-term plans.

“I need to just be myself,” he says. “Goals come as they catch my interest, I guess. We’ll see what life has in store for me as I make my way through it.” And that’s how he has to live. After all, as he says, that old life is just one choice away. “I can’t forget about it,” he says, “because I have to remember where I came from to keep striving forward.”

His mother was Cree from the One Arrow First Nation, and died young – at just 57 years of age. He never knew his father, who was deported back to Nigeria before he was born. He grew up on a reservation in Alberta with his mother – a residential school survivor who struggled with addictions her entire life – and he suffered in a world of poverty, sexual abuse and violence before he found football as a teenager as an escape. He recently retired from the sport that gave

Than a Bystander program likes to pair up its community presentations with events at local schools when they come to town. Unfortunately, that won’t be the case for Campbell River’s event. “I’m not sure if they had exams going on or something in the schools on the dates that were being offered, but they just couldn’t do the dates,” Jackson says, but she’s approaching classes and teachers, sports programs and others in the school system to encourage attendance at the evening event. “We’re really excited that EVA BC and JR LaRose decided that they would go ahead with the evening presentation anyway,” Jackson says. “B ecause we had applied so long ago and talked about it for so long, they said they’d

Almost everyone has a woman in their life they care about. A mother, a daughter, a wife, a girlfriend, a sister – someone. What will it take to make the world a better place for them, and what can you do to help make that happen? Be More Than a Bystander, an initiative created by the partnership of the Ending Violence Association of BC (EVA BC) and the BC Lions football club, is coming to town for a unique one-nightonly event on March 8 at Thunderbird Hall to help you answer that question. Gloria Jackson, coordinator of community based victim services with the Campbell River Family Services Society (CRFS), is helping to organize the event alongside various community partners and says it’s time for our community to have a serious look in the mirror and change what we don’t like. “It’s not a nice topic to talk about. I get that. But it’s the silence that perpetuates it. Domestic violence, sexual assault,

even bullying, it’s just something that people don’t want to talk about. And it’s the silence that keeps it going. Once we break the silence on this kind of stuff, that’s when it will start to change,” Jackson says. “The time has come for us to stop allowing this to happen within our community, and it’s going to take a lot of people standing up and saying, ‘this is not okay, and I’m going to do something about it.’” Sometimes there’s a misconception amongst the public about who these types of events are for, Jackson says. “People look at it and go, ‘Well, I’m not affected by domestic violence,’ or say ‘it’s not a part of my life or of my world,’” but that couldn’t be further from the truth, she says. We all live in this world together – we all make up this community – and it’s up to everyone to make this world and this community what we want it to be. “It’s about answering the question, ‘how we make our community a safer and better place to live?’” T hat’s w he re J R LaRose and the Be More Than a Bystander program comes in.

Our View
It started with a pink shirt You have to wonder if, back in 2007, while David Shepherd and Travis Price were buying a stack of 50 pink shirts could they have imagined that their bullying protest would spread around the world. Probably not. They were just trying to support a fellow student who was bullied for wearing a pink shirt on the first day of school. But this year, we are celebrating Pink Shirt Day (or Anti-bullying Day, if you prefer) for the ninth year. And it’s five years since the United Nations took a stand and proclaimed May 4 International Anti-Bullying Day. That’s pretty good return for the purchase of a stack of cheap T-shirts. Why do people, especially kids, bully others? There are so many reasons that it would never be possible to find one answer that would fit all situations. What is common, however, is their victims. Bullies have a knack for finding the kids that are unlikely to retaliate. And they choose them because the victim is different—skin colour, nationality, size, hair colour, shape of the nose, you name it—even the colour of shirt you choose to wear. Let’s hope the word continues to spread. Bullying will likely never be wiped out completely, but we can hope to reduce its hold on society, as has been done with the once socially acceptable drinking and driving. -Black Press
Letters
I’d like to clarify misconception about bottom of the barrel comments In the Friday the 15th edition of this newspaper, an article regarding my appearance before city council took up a fair amount of space. I was not informed of the impending publishing of this article nor was I consulted as to its content. Had that courtesy been extended I would certainly have been appreciative. As it stands, although It wasn’t my intention, I’m sure the article will focus attention on the problem we’ve had with the severe handicap that the city and the local RCMP have imposed on our ability to attract and hire drivers. I would like to correct any misconception that might arise from a comment pertaining to the RCMP “leaving us with the bottom of the barrel.”
Your Your community community news team: team: news
I certainly was not in any way, referring to our current drivers, a group of individuals, more than a few who have served this city a decade and twice that long, that carry out quite well, the maintaining of Bee-Line’s long established reputation for efficient, courteous service. That comment was made in one of many vain attempts to help council see that leaving us an empty “barrel” to choose from, gives us no choice about who we hire and because of this we’ve had to deal with a lot of unfortunate and expensive experiences that could have been prevented had we had the same selective process in place that taxi companies in most Canadian cities take for granted. The cost to anyone

possessing a class-four licence, to get behind the wheel of a cab in Courtenay, is zero. The cost for the same driver to get behind the wheel of a cab in Campbell River is: $40 for a criminal record check, $15 to $20 for passport photos, $25 for fingerprinting, a total of 90 to 95 dollars. The waiting time in Courtenay, is a matter of a few days, the waiting time in Campbell River, for most of our experience, usually a matter of months. I keep being told that what is being done to drivers and owners in Campbell River is a federally-mandated policy. Federally mandated law is universally applied, not just here and there according to dictates of local authorities. For instance, Port Hardy requires a crimi-

nal record check for taxi drivers, it is free and takes about three days, there is no fingerprinting, annually or otherwise. I will happily take any one on city council or any city staffer, for a tour of taxi stands and police stations from Port Hardy to Victoria, and if during
the course of this tour, it is determined that most cities or towns, fingerprint nearly every new chauffeurs applicant and the majority of the established drivers on an annual basis, at the drivers’ expense, I will drop my argument. Ray Lustig Bee-Line Taxi
EDITOR’S NOTE: Appearances before city council are a matter of public record and as such, are open to the public to witness. The media’s role is to report on the deliberations of your local government, serving as the public’s surrogate. Any submissions to council, be they written
or made in person are on the public record and anything said or submitted to council can and will be reported – just as the councillors’ responses and deliberations are equally open to reporting. We don’t need permission to do this, the deliberations of municipal government must be open
Fletcher’s exposé was brilliant
Congratulations to the Campbell River Mirror for being the first newspaper to scratch the surface of the “homelessness” problem. Full credit goes to Tom Fletcher for his brilliant exposé of our failed “homelessness” model and his observation that money alone will not solve this crisis. Throughout the world and throughout history social ills have always been the result of shortages. Shortages of food, water,

shelter were the result of a lack of resources. In our society social ills are a result of excesses. Too much money, too many calories, too much salt, too much alcohol for example are the result of an oversupply. Since losing my job in the oil and gas business in Calgary in 2008 I have been a regular user of our “homelessness” services and it is obvious to me that “homelessness” is a result of substance abuse, not

poverty. The province has a legal obligation to provide access to housing services but we have an entire arsenal of housing resources on the federal, provincial and municipal level that are being abused. Once again, congratulations to Tom Fletcher and this paper for the courage to address the reality of this problem. Eric Hoch, Campbell River

‘Fact Sheet 1’ addresses Oyster River Elementary closure concerns School District 72 releases first in a series of fact sheet to try to answer parents’ questions MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
School District 72 (SD72) is attempting to address questions and concerns being raised about the possible imminent closure of two elementary schools in the district and has released what they are calling “the first in a series of fact sheets” to do just that. The document, released this week, addresses the overarching themes that were raised by concerned parents and members of the community at the first public consultation meeting and written responses received by the board so far in regards to Oyster River Elementary. “There will be more questions addressed/ answered in future fact sheets,” says communi-
cations and community engagement officer for SD72 Jennifer Patrick, but rather than waiting until they had all the answers people are looking for, they thought it better to get what answers they have out to the public as they have them. The concerns and questions addressed by district senior staff in “Fact Sheet 1” range from the time busses will take to get students to Ocean Grove should Oyster River close down, to why the district hasn’t considered other facilities for closure – such as Robron Centre or the School B oard Offices on Pinecrest – to whether the teachers from Oyster River Elementary would move along with the students in the event of a school closure. T he qu e st i on of
whether Oyster River should be considered a “rural school” is also addressed again in the document. “School District 72 has always, and for the
“
namely Sayward, Cortes, Quadra and Surge Narrows,” the document reads. “Schools are categorized also in consideration of the proximity to another school and
where the next nearest school is 80 km or the island schools that have the added ferry requirement.” There is also, according to the fact sheet,
THEY SAID IT: “Under the School Act definition, Oyster River Elementary is within a rural area. However, there is no provision under the School Act that schools within rural areas cannot be closed. Boards of Education are required to ensure delivery of educational programming, which would be accomplished even if the students were moved to Ocean Grove Elementary.”

purposes of the 20152025 Facility Plan, identified our rural or outlying schools to be those without Campbell River mailing addresses,
difficulty of providing services. With respect to Oyster River Elementary there is another school within 11 km – compared to Sayward
a misconception that rural schools cannot be closed under the legislation of the Schools Act. “Under the School Act’s definition, Oys-
ter River Elementary is within a rural area,” the document admits. “However, there is no provision under the School Act that schools within rural areas cannot be closed. Boards of Education are required to ensure delivery of educational programming, which would be accomplished even if the students were moved to Ocean Grove Elementary.” The question of why the sell-off of unused property held by the district isn’t the first thing being done to see how much money that could add to future budgets also came up numerous times by opponents to the possible closure. “Unfortunately, property sales of this scale are not necessarily quick sales and some may be subject to restrictions by either local government
or the Crown,” the document says in answer to that question. “Property sales also serve as a onetime gain, meaning that the school district would only receive a lump sum payment once. School districts are also required to sell buildings within fair market value and market valuations on buildings such as Evergreen is often less than many would estimate.” The district also says the sell-off of properties like Evergreen wouldn’t do anything to remedy their excess capacity situation, as closed facilities aren’t included in those calculations by the Ministry of Education. The entire document can be found under “School Closures Consultations” in the “Quick Links” section on the district’s website (sd72. bc.ca).

Funding denied to improve ‘at risk’ emergency centre Kristen Douglas Campbell RiveR miRRoR
Quadra Island Director Jim Abram is shocked that the federal government has denied funding for seismic upgrades to the island’s community centre, calling the decision “crazy.” Abram was particularly upset because the building is the island’s designated emergency centre in the event of a disaster, such as an earthquake,
which in the building’s current condition, it’s not likely to withstand. “This absolutely shocks me that we did not get this grant,” Abram said at the Strathcona Regional District’s board meeting Feb. 10 upon learning an application to the federal Gas Tax Fund was denied. “These grants were for this purpose, for community buildings that were designed as emergency response centres and
be at risk of unrepairable damage should a significant earthquake strike. That seismic evaluation slapped the community centre with an H3 ranking – a high level of priority on the retrofit ranking scale that is associated with damage such as walls falling down. The regional district has been trying to secure funding to carry out the necessary upgrades since 2013 but to no avail. Gary MacIsaac, chair of the Gas Tax Management Committee, told the regional district in his rejection letter that there were simply too many applications and
that’s what this is,” Abram added. “We even put in a generator and everything else to completely power the place. And we didn’t get the grant. This is crazy.” The cost to seismically upgrade the community centre is estimated at around $300,000. The centre was built in 1985 and is the desig nate d community emergency shelter even though a 2013 evaluation of the building found it to

not enough money to go around. “The 2015 intake was considerably oversubscribed,” MacIsaac wrote. “In total, 222 applications were made, with a funding request of over $650 million. The projects selected reflect the technical ranking provided to the management committee for all projects.” The Gas Tax Fund is aimed at helping Canadian municipalities with projects that will revitalize and help them build local infrastructure. The fund provides $2 billion annually to be spread out among communities across the country. The

funds can be used for projects related to public transit, drinking water, solid waste management, local roads and bridges, hig hways, air p or ts, disaster mitigation, tourism, sport, recreation and more. Quadra’s community centre would have been eligible as a disaster mitigation project but did not score high enough in the technical rankings. The community centre, which underwent a twostorey addition in 2011, is vulnerable, however, because of its rocking plywood walls. The 2013 seismic evaluation report found that it’s likely there are no hold down anchors in the walls of the centre’s main hall to help it resist rocking. The other major concern relates to the addi-

tion, which was not tied to the original hall wall at the time of construction and, therefore, in the event of an earthquake, would cause the seismic weight of the original portion of the hall to be transferred to the addition, making it difficult to withstand any significant shaking. Abram, at last week’s regional board meeting, got the support of the board to direct regional district staff to immediately apply for funding as soon as the next uptake for seismic upgrading or anything “remotely related” comes up. Meanwhile, a regional district application to the Canada 150 program was also recently denied. That application was related to playground equipment for Hagel Park in Area D.

KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
The city is considering hosting the BC Summer Games. The BC Games Society has put out a call to municipalities across the province looking for potential host communities for both the 2020 BC Winter and BC Summer Games, as well as the Summer and Winter Games in 2022. At Tuesday night’s council meeting, Coun. Ron Kerr put forward a motion that staff report back on the feasibility of the city hosting the 2020 BC Summer Games. Council had previously considered hosting this year’s BC Winter Games but nixed that plan on account of both the hospital and John Hart projects being underway. But Kerr said by the time 2020 comes around, the city should be better prepared. “The last intake, I
Some fraud is organized and orchestrated by a group of individuals, namely, staged accidents and stolen vehicle rings.

Fraudulent claims take a toll on B.C. drivers
Other types of fraud are less obvious. Fraud like this includes exaggerating the extent of an injury, misrepresenting a previous medical condition or slanting the situation when reporting a claim. It’s not unheard of for people to embellish their claim by including vehicle damage unrelated to the crash, or to claim they can’t work when they’re actually back on the job. These tactics may not make the news, but the costs add up and come out of all of our pockets – we all end up paying for those who cheat the system.
ICBC
ICBC combats fraud with their Special Investigation Unit, which last year looked at more than 5,000 claims les. This includes a cyber unit that employs information publicly available on the internet and social media to investigate suspected fraudulent claims. They’re in the process of increasing their focus on investigations, including training and analytics technology that ags patterns and predictors of fraud.
PROCESS While most B.C. drivers are honest when it comes to making insurance claims, there are a few that are hurting things for the rest of us in the province. Industry studies estimate that about 10 to 20 per cent of all insurance claims contain an element of fraud or exaggeration. Applying those estimates here means fraud is costing us up to $600 million per year, or more than $100 annually on every auto insurance policy. Fraud cheats everyone and comes in all shapes and sizes.

believe we weren’t ready to get involved but I think this is far enough away that perhaps we can start working towards it,” Kerr said. “I had the opportunity to be involved last year as an athlete and I really see the economic driver in this. It makes total sense, so I’d like to see this go ahead.” Council agreed to have staff report back but Mayor Andy Adams cautioned that the city has gone down this road before only to find it cannot host on its own. “To do something in
the context of the Summer Games – as Campbell River does not have a track facility – we would need to partner with the Comox Valley in order to put in a bid for an application, as we would for the Winter Games as well,” Adams said. For the Winter Games, the city also needs a c o m m i t m e nt f ro m Mount Washington to allow the use of its ski slopes, lodge and other facilities. The city did host the BC Winter Games in 1997 and consid-
ered hosting in 2018 after plans for the 2016 Games didn’t pan out. The city has until Sept. 10, 2016, to submit a bid for the 2020 BC Games, which are expected to be awarded to the successful bidder in late fall of this year. The B C Summer Games typically attracts more than 2,000 athletes competing in nearly 20 different sports including baseball, basketball, canoeing, soccer, swimming, volleyball and wrestling. The BC Games is considered a stepping stone for young athletes to national and international competitions and to multi-sport competitions like the Canada Games and the Olympic or Paralympic Games. The Games are held every even-numbered year. This year’s Winter Games take place Feb. 25-28 in Penticton while Abbotsford will play host to this year’s BC Summer Games.

Directors settle on names for two Cortes parks 14 | CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR | FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 2016 2016
Kristen Douglas CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
The results are in. The results in this case being what to call two parks on Cortes Island. For nearly half a year, residents, service groups and First Nations on Cortes Island have been brainstor ming ne w names for Byers Road/ Ferry Park and Whaletown Commons. At last week’s Thursday meeting of the Strathcona Regional District board, directors got the chance to see what they came up with. Nine suggestions came back for Byers Road/ Ferry Park, and from
those, regional district staff narrowed it down to three – Whale’s Rest Shoreline Park, Tecktum, and Thompson’s Edge Park. Tom Yates, the regional district’s acting chief administrative officer, suggested Whale’s Rest Shoreline Park as it “may be the most historically and culturally significant, and is considered the most easily identifiable for parks users and the general public.” At last week’s board meeting, Cortes Director Noba Anderson suggested Shoreline be dropped from the name to make the name less of a mouthful.
“

THEY SAID IT: “the name has longstanding community recognition”
– Aniko Nelson, SRD Parks and Planning
Directors were on board with the new name, but Campbell River Director Larry Samson was concerned that First Nations – which, under a new parks naming policy adopted by the regional district board last summer are supposed to be consulted – did not respond.
“I think we have to go over and above in ensuring First Nations are consulted and approached in whatever manner,” Samson said. “As it is with no input from First Nations I will not be supporting the motion.” But Anderson said the Klahoose First Nation on Cortes has been approached and the regional district has yet to hear back. “I’ve been very adamant about engaging First Nations on this,” Anderson said. “I met with Klahoose over a year ago on this, staff has engaged on multiple occasions. I was under the impression the Kla-
hoose have, at this point, no intention of responding to this. They have other priorities.” According to a staff report, staff sent three requests for input to the Klahoose that elicited no response. The Homalco First Nation was also approached but deferred comment to the Klahoose. In the end, the board approved renaming the park Whale’s Rest Park, which Anderson said is in honour of the historic use of the area for whaling and recognizes the whales that still frequent the bay. “It’s a nod to the slaughter of whales that

happened in the late 1800s,” Anderson said. “In two whaling seasons we killed all the whales in the whole region.” As for the second park, Whaletown Commons, the board agreed to keep that name as is. Residents of Cortes, Friends of Cortes Island and the Cortes museum all wished to retain the original name. The Klahoose First Nation did not respond to three requests for comment and the Cortes Island Business and Tourism and Whaletown Community Club both did not respond to two requests each for comment. The Homalco First
Nation again deferred comment to the Klahoose. A staff report by Aniko Nelson, parks and planning manager for the regional district, and Ralda Hansen, community services manager, said the name carries a lot of significance in the community “The name has longstanding community recognition and is culturally significant,” they wrote. “The name was arrived at initially through extensive public process during the park acquisition and has been referred to as Whaletown Commons since that time.”

Friday night was the final regular season home game for the Storm and it was a night of special moments, including a 7-3 win over the Generals that extended C a mp b e l l R i v e r’s unbeaten streak to 16 games. Just ahead of the warm-up, the team announced that Alex Rosolowsky would wear the captain’s ‘C’ on his chest. Injured captain Gage Colpron played a part in the decision and said following the game, “Rosolowsky’s heart speaks for itself and wearing the ‘C’ stepped up his game which was a huge part in the win.” It was Rosolowsky’s first game back after receiving an awkward hit in January. According to Head Coach Lee Stone, “He’s such a key cog for us in terms of being an energy player. He just creates, creates, creates and I don’t mean offence, I don’t mean defence, I just mean energy.” Stone says. “He gets guys excited to play, it’s infectious and we’re excited to get him back.” His return was most noticeable on the power play. Campbell River went 4-for-5 on the man advantage and Number 43 was in on three
of those goals, setting up two for Kobe Oishi and scoring one himself. The game’s first star was Oishi. His third goal of the contest came early in the third period as a result of some hard work from line mate Reece Costain. The big forward took a hit in the corner from the Generals’ Bobby Jo Love, but made a perfect pass to Oishi in the low slot and Brandon Ward didn’t have time to react. For Costain, it was also his first game back from injury. Ryan Grills waited until the last home game of the regular season to get his first goal of the year. A clean faceoff win by Josh Coblenz, deep in the Oceanside end, led to a quick ‘wrister’ from Grills that fooled Ward. Following the goal, the Storm bench began chanting, “Grillzy, Grillzy, Grillzy.” He was named third star. Colin Blake continued to amaze, picking up four more points on Friday. On the current 16 game streak, he has amassed 30 points and was named last week’s VIJHL Player of the Week. The other Storm goal came from Michal Holub.

Storm: one more game Cont. from Pg. 17
Goalie Jake Mullen was back in the lineup and faced 22 shots to pick up the win. At the end of the night, as the players were performing their customary salute to the Storm faithful, the crowd reciprocated. Each fan was supplied a miniature stick that they waved at the players. It was another full house at the Brindy, one of many this year. Regular season attendance exceeded 22,200, an average of 925 per game. To put that into perspective, it is comparable to BCHL crowd numbers and would be in the middle of the pack, somewhere between the Trail Smoke Eaters and the Prince George Spruce Kings. On Sunday, the Storm hoste d t he annua l Alumni game with pro-

ceeds going to Cameryn’s Cause for Kids. It was entertaining with more than 100 shots and 30 goals. The former players were 21-9 winners and $1,500 was raised for the cause. Up next for the Storm
is the final game of the regular season in Nanaimo on Thursday. The playoffs begin next week but the dates won’t be determined until the winner of the Oceanside Generals/Saanich Braves wildcard game is decided early next week.
Dumb friends are the best SPIN MY
RIDE James Durand
I left work last Monday and rode around Beaver Lodge for 90 minutes before the start of the weekly group ride. The puddles were hub deep; within 15 minutes I was covered from head to toe with soupy mud, and the rain was blowing sideways so badly that I couldn’t see the trail, no matter how bright my light was shining. Despite the weather, I was having an okay ride, but about an hour in I got cold. I realized that the water had penetrated all my rain gear and my winter riding boots were full of muddy goop. (Apparently submersing them makes them less water proof. Who knew?) It was at this point that I was thinking, “What an Idiot I am for being out here.” The good news was that in this weather there was no way anyone would show up for the
group ride, so I would just head home for a nice hot shower. As I rolled into the parking lot to confirm the ride was cancelled so I could continue on home, I found four other riders waiting for me. The next thought in my head was, “Wow there are four other people as dumb as I am”. I faked a smile and we headed for the trail that I thought would be the driest…It wasn’t dry at all and we rode through
the trails in what seemed like one lake after another. Somehow I started to warm up and the ride began to flow nicely through the trees, the puddles were less noticeable, and we even found some fast down hill and a technical climb to keep us smiling. As we were riding back to the finish, we all decided to take the long way through the trails before heading home. I would have definitely skipped the ride that night, but due to four friends as dumb as I am, we had a great Monday night rip through the slop! S o to those who showed up to ride in the nastiest weather of the year, thanks for the motivation, I wouldn’t have done it without you. I’m James Durand and I’m Goin’ Ridin’…Rain or Shine!

Bantam Tyee Grady Robertson reaches for the puck during a playoff game Saturday versus the Peninsula Eagles at Rod Brind’Amour Arena.
Won, and not done for Tyees Last Saturday Campbell River’s first place KLP Construction Bantam A Tyees faced off against the second place Peninsula Eagles from the South Island in a pivotal crossover playoff match. Understanding that the losing team would have its strong season come to an unfortunate and crashing halt, both teams were determined to start strong. Although the Eagles began the game with four power plays in the first 14 minutes of the game, outstanding penalty killing by the Tyees thwarted Peninsula from scoring the first goal, or possibly even more. Once the Tyees began
playing the game at full strength for longer stretches of time, River Fahey was able to score the game’s all-important first goal in the final minute of the first period. Being outshot 19-8 in the first period by Campbell River, the Eagles came out firing pucks towards goaltender Jayce Hudak early in the second and were able to tie the game just four minutes in. The teams traded some good chances, but neither team could capitalize on its opportunities until Grady Robertson deflected a point shot by Matthew Ubriaco while on the power play to give the Tyees a slim 2-1 lead
after two even though the shots were more lopsided at 33-14 at the second intermission. Though the Tyees dominated both territorially and on the shot clock, both teams felt the tension that stems from knowing they were just one bounce away from their elimination game, being tied in the third period. As the Tyees continued playing more in the offensive zone, Jory Swanson scored a big goal on the big Peninsula goaltender early in the third period on a rap-around goal from behind the net that snuck just past the Peninsula goaltenders’ pad to give the Tyees their first two-goal lead of the
game. Three minutes later, Noah Fladager and Logan Chapdelaine assisted Robertson’s second goal of the game to give the Tyees a threegoal cushion. Peninsula was able to put one more puck past the strong play of Hudak with just under 12 minutes remaining, the Tyees proved to be the better team; outscoring Peninsula 4-2, and outshooting the Eagles by a count of 47-29 in the process. The Tyees now prepare to play a best of three series beginning this weekend at home against Powell River. The winner of this series will be off to the Provincials in Salmon Arm, which commences in the middle of March.

Fishing Corner
Don Daniels
There are a handful of avid anglers who have been getting out fishing the local rivers and those who target steelhead have their favourite holes and keep them to themselves. Water levels are good and with the melt coming from the mountains over the next two months, fishing will get better for those who wade the rivers or drift by boat. Destination rivers will be the Salmon and Nimpkish to the north and the Gold River to the west. Close at hand is the Campbell and the Quinsam. The Oyster River is very fishable for catch and release trout and upper pools can produce nice fish, especially on the fly. In any river, water levels and clarity can change day to day and the best thing to do is wade out and fish the different pools with varied spinning or fly gear. A streamer pattern that worked for me was a fly tied with a silver body and purple hair wing. There are a number of fry patterns that work well in spring and small silver spoons will be the norm. The weather is still wet and cold
GET READY FOR SPRING
Fish Bonkers hand made by Bill Mcdonald Campbell River and while its getting warmer, lakes will take a while to warm up. Some good fishing has been reported as water levels are high and if you can find a creek entering a lake, get out and try your luck. I have had some great trout fishing in the months of March and April last year. Last Saturday, I got together with five people at Tyee Marine in Campbell River for my second session of beginning fly tying.
I find my approach to teaching the basics is to show people the easy steps to tying flies and understanding where to begin. Ed Cargill was kind enough to build a few vise stands and Tyee Marine donated the use of the tying equipment. At the end of the threehour session, the people had 12 flies that they tied and can use locally on the lakes and rivers. I met with Patrick Siebold at the Campbell River Library this week and the next free tying session will be held at the library in Campbell River on Sunday Feb. 28 from 1 to 3 p.m. I keep the group small and we all work together to learn the basics of fly tying and the public is invited is to come out and watch and even register for future sessions. My approach to fly tying is keep it simple and give the tyers a chance to learn what to do and use various materials to build a working fly that will catch fish. When we get together its like playschool with people from all ages working with fur feathers and blank hooks that are transformed into a pattern that fish will hit.

That was no easy feat, so the question coming into this season was and remains, “Can they repeat?” Many of the championship players moved on.

Gravel placement project at Elk Falls will employ a different type of bridge No public access to Elk Falls Feb. 24-26 while work is being done
People have been going to the Elk Falls suspension bridge in droves since it opened last May, but fish restoration experts hope a different type of bridge will help increase fish numbers in the river below. It’s about the gravel in the river and fish that use it for spawning. Efficiencies have been found in its delivery to the canyon bottom. A different type of bridge, essentially a skyline, is getting ready to be installed. The BC Conservation Foundation (BCCF) is leading a spawning gravel placement project that will begin Feb. 22. The first component is construction of a gravel loading pad and access trail on the south side of the canyon and the drilling of steel anchors into the north canyon wall. A steel cable will be installed to carry a remote release gravel bucket to drop gravel into the river below. The cable will be placed about 30 metres downstream of the suspension bridge. The cable will only be up when the gravel is being placed so there will be no visual obstructions from the suspension bridge, and the gravel will be brought in using existing and new trails. “The creation of the John Hart dam in 1947 stopped the natural recruitment of gravel into the canyon from upstream,” BCCF project lead, Jeramy Damborg, said in a press release. “There’s good fish habitat from the generating station up to Elk Falls. It’s about 1.8 km long and provides spawning and rearing for Steelhead, Coho and Chinook, among other fish. Suitable spawning gravel within the canyon

area is a limiting factor to fish production.” Since 1999, given the importance of gravel for fish productivity, gravel has been delivered six times. The very difficult access with the steep vertical canyon walls has meant the gravel has been delivered in buckets by a heavy lift helicopter, which is expensive with helicopter time costing $2 per second. Safety is another important consideration. “We are anticipating that once the infrastructure is installed the new gravel placements will be about a quarter of the cost of the previous delivery method,” says Damborg. “That means we can add more gravel on a more consistent basis, hopefully every one to two years.” Damborg says the gravel, once delivered, slowly moves and spreads downstream when flows released from the John Hart dam are increased. BCCF is finalizing a Park Use Permit with BC Parks, the landowner, which outlines

Historically, gravel for fish spawning has been delivered by helicopter. Starting this year onward, gravel will be delivered via a skyline that’s being installed by the BC Conservation Foundation.
BCCF as the owner of the gravel delivery asset. The total project cost is about $161,000. Funding was primarily provided by Fisheries and Oceans Canada,
Fish and Wildlife Compensation Program (FWCP) and the Campbell River Salmon Foundation. FWCP has been the primary funding source for all six previous gravel projects in the canyon, and is a partnership between BC Hydro, the Province of B.C., Fisheries and Oceans Canada, First Nations and public stakeholders “We would like to get the word out that the infrastructure works may last up to four weeks starting Feb. 22,” says Damborg. “We will have signage and sometimes flaggers to keep the public safe along the trail in conjunction of some trail closures or delays on Feb. 23. Then there will be full trail closures to Elk Falls from Feb. 24 to 26; people will be unable to access the falls. “There may also be some short trail delays as we move equipment and materials in and out during the remainder of the construction period. Noise during drilling operations is also expected. We appreciate people’s patience and apologise for any inconvenience.”

Exchange Student Updates
So far it has been a busy time for Johanna and Gergő. They both celebrated the holidays with their host families but have had a whirlwind time traveling! In addition to the sightseeing by helicopter and crabbing with President Gary, the two took in some local mushroom harvesting before setting out to California. The combined International Rotary Exchange Trip saw all of the students go to Disneyland, Universal Studios and Knox Berry Farm.

Dad and Mom are tired of the upkeep of their home, grocery shopping, errands, meal preparation, yard work and cleaning. They have always been volunteers and active in their community wherever they have lived. What happens if they move in to a retirement community?
There is no reason for your Mom and Dad to stop volunteering or being engaged in their community if they move to a Retirement Community. They may in fact, have more time to spend on their passions. The beauty of living in a Retirement Community is it frees up time and energy to do all the things that it seemed there was no time for or perhaps they felt too tired to do.
Fun was also had on a quick sojourn to the Hollywood Hills. As both of our exchange students are keen to experience as much as they can, please remember to include them in any special day trips or adventures. Mount Washington anyone? They REALLY want to go!!!
Congratulations to our Outbound Exchange Student CHARITY STEWART who will be heading to Denmark!
Student of the Month Madison Cahill—Robron Centre
Some residents move to a Retirement Community for the basic services of security, meals, cleaning and laundry, allowing them time to “stay connected” to their outside community. Some Seniors move in to a Retirement Community to “become connected” to the community; and some enjoy maintaining both their existing outside connections as well as new inside connections.
Teacher Christine Pudsey explained the philosophy of Robron Centre and how January’s ‘Student of the Month, Madison Cahill, epitomizes it. Subscribing to the ‘Circle of Courage’ approach, adapted from the aboriginal medicine wheel, they focus on four growth needs; Belonging, Mastery, Independence and Generosity. The school offers students various programs that allow them to achieve their Dogwood Diplomas at their own pace.
Volunteer opportunities are certainly available and welcomed within the Retirement Community. Evidence suggests when Seniors volunteer, it can reduce rates of cognitive decline and dementia; there are significant reductions in symptoms of depression and can combat loneliness.
According to Christine, Madison is a very well rounded student who has a sense of Belonging. Although quiet by nature, she has gone out of her comfort zone to become very involved in committees and workshops. She encourages others to do likewise. She has worked hard on Mastery. She came to Robron hoping to catch up on her schooling. Christine says that she has exceeded expectations and is now on track to graduate next year.
Wendy Mayers is your local Senior Living Expert. If you have questions or would like to chat, contact Wendy at Berwick by the Sea, 250-914-8055 or email: berwickbythesea@berwickrc.com
Independence is a part of growing and Madison’s goal was to get her driver’s license. She now has her ‘L’. Madison’s Generosity with her time and efforts has been inspirational to her peers. She was instrumental is getting the ‘Free Side’ up and running. Clothing is collected and distributed to those in need whether they are other students or those at homeless shelters. She has also been involved in fundraisers for the upcoming ‘Coldest Night of the Year’ walk on February 20th.

PLATINUM SPONSORS RECOGNITION
The Campbell River Mirror Maria Kirley and Dave Hamilton
Last year was the most successful Rotary TV Auction in the history of our club. Over $100,000 was raised so that we could continue to give back to the community of Campbell River. Without the support and continued commitment of our platinum sponsors, we would have a much harder, if not impossible task before us every year. So….to all of our Platinum Sponsors… you are the spirit of Rotary, we thank you!

Dr. P: Naturopathic physicians have talked about healthy fats in their care programs for the last 30 years! When I was going to naturopathic medical school trans fats were still a fad, but we were telling our patients to avoid trans fats and stick with purified fish oils rich in omega 3’s essential fats DHA and EPA. These essential fats are not found in plants so taking flaxoil will not provide this in the quantities required for optimal heart health. Eating fish such as sardines, herring and salmon is recommended three times per week but I am concerned about the PCB’s, dioxins and mercury found in larger fish, hence the recommendation of purified fish oils. Other heart healthy fats include olive oil and coconut oil.
Dr. P: Well I don’t have an answer to this. What I do have are recommendations for optimal heart function to reduce the risk of stroke and further heart disease. First of all the so

common causes of heart palpitations is a lack of magnesium. There are many other causes including anxiety and hormone imbalances. What I always encourage my patients to look at is what is missing in their lives that they love to do, and make sure they take time and get this “love” back into their lives. “Grounding” such as walking by the seashore, or in the trees, or in the mountains, provides a much needed rest from this world, make sure you get grounded three times per week!

Dr. P: It is always best to measure your heart attack and stroke risk. One of the ways is with specialized testing such as Pla2 (plaque) testing or MPO inflammatory marker testing done at heart health labs in the United States. MSP does NOT pay for prevention so you will have to ask your MD or ND for these tests and you will have to pay for them. I use Atherotech in Alabama. By measuring these risk factors along with others such as the size of the cholesterols (HDL’s and LDL’s) as well as homocysteine and CRP, naturopathic physicians can provide an individualized program to help lower your risk.

‘Campbell River's’ Syrian refugees: so close, yet so far Kristen Douglas CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
M
erell Awad hasn’t slept in nearly a week. She’s on pins and needles anxiously awaiting news about her Syrian family who are waiting to enter Canada as refugees. It’s been a long road for Awad who has been working tirelessly to get her family out of war-torn Syria and into Campbell River to carve out new lives for themselves. With the help of a 25-person committee of caring community members, enough money has been raised to sponsor seven of Awad’s family members. Awad’s sister, her sister’s husband and their two teenaged sons, who are 13 and 16, as well as Awad’s mother, who has one leg and heart problems, have left Syria and are in Lebanon, where they arrived on Nov. 1 and are awaiting word that they can fly into Canada. One of those boys is Awad’s nephew, Elias, whom Campbell Riverites rallied to raise money for more than five years ago so he could receive a kidney transplant when he was 10 years old. Rounding out the group awaiting a flight to Canada are the parents of Sam Almouallem, a young man who escaped Syria by flying to the United States and then crossing over the Canadian border on foot. Almouallem has since obtained refugee status and is living with Awad and her husband

Refugee committee member Mary Cook, left, watches while Merell Awad, co-owner of BaBa Gannouj, cooks up a pot of Syrian meatballs and tries to keep up her usual routine as she anxiously awaits to hear when her Syrian family will be admitted into Canada as refugees.
Fouad, the owners of BaBa Gannouj restaurant. Awad says while she’s thrilled to have her family members out of Syria, it’s been difficult being left in the dark as to when they will be able to leave Lebanon. “We just don’t know,” she says. “No one knows when it’s going to happen.” The seven family members have recently completed medical tests and a lengthy interview process – an interview can take up to two and a half to three hours – conducted through the Canadian embassy set up in Lebanon. They’ve been given the go-ahead to enter Canada but they are still in limbo. “It might happen any-
time now,” Awad says. “We might get a call in seven days, we might get a call in two weeks. No one knows. It might happen at anytime.” When it does happen, the family is expected to fly into Toronto and from there, board a flight to Vancouver. Mary Cook, a parishioner at St. Peter’s Anglican Church, who got her church to help sponsor the family, said the hope is to get them from Vancouver to Campbell River as quickly as possible. Once here, the families will move into rental properties that the local committee has been working to secure. Awad says the families are extremely excited to start new lives in Campbell River and Awad is
thrilled to have them. “I didn’t sleep for a couple of days,” she says. “I’m so excited, so thankful, so grateful, so overwhelmed. Up until now I couldn’t believe it,
until now I was thinking ‘is this real? Are they really going to come here?’ I’m so happy my mom is coming.” And, she says, it wouldn’t have been pos-

ply the dogs with free food for one year while Dogwood Veterinary Hospital, Merecroft Veterinary Clinic and the veterinary clinic near Greenwood Street have volunteered to provide free medical check ups and vaccines for the dogs for one year. Meanwhile, while Awad awaits the arrival of her first seven family members, there are others still waiting and wanting to come to Canada. Awad’s sister, her husband and two children have thus far been refused entry to Canada because of missing information, as has Awad’s husband’s cousin. A cousin of Awad was ready to come to Canada but declined at the last minute to stay with her dad who is ill. And while Awad waits for word as to when her family may arrive, she and the Campbell River Syrian Refugee Committee haven’t stopped working to raise the money needed to help the family get settled.

sible without all of the people with big hearts who came forward to help, including all of the local businesses who stepped up in such big ways. Island Home Furniture, for example, gave the committee one free bed for each one the volunteers purchased while the Gathering Place donated five per cent of its January profits towards sponsoring the refugees. Willow Point Wines will be donating 10 per cent of the profits it makes off people who make cranberry wine and Storey Creek Golf Club donated some of the proceeds from a recent function.

way to truly capture you’re favourities if you plan to buy them later to enjoy in the comfort and safety of your home. Nothing quite cleanses the palate like a sip or two of bubbly. Newly arrived in British Columbia – and a surprisingly rich mouthful! – Villa Teresa Chardonnay Frizzante (744383) $16.90 is an addition to Villa Teresa’s line-up of sparkling wines offering more pear and honeyed peach fruitiness than their phenomenally successful Prosecco. Bright and sassy up front, it develops an apple pie richness opening up on the tongue. As difficult as it may seem, don’t spritz up with perfume, cologne or aftershave before heading out for an evening of nibbling and sipping at the 38th annual Vancouver International Wine Festival. Even the subtlest of scents can confuse your sensitive
nose and baffle your taste buds. Not to mention the evil glares you’ll get from fellow wine enthusiasts standing next to you. Break up the streams of red wine you’ll be sampling with a luscious white or two. Even at the premium level, among similar wines from other Chilean producers, Montes Alpha Chardonnay (390203) $26.30 is a fascinating white wine with a medley of mango, peaches, guava and grapefruit aromas and flavours tantalizing the taste buds over a core of fresh sliced lemons and asparagus. Ten months in French oak adds subtle elements of toast, vanilla, butterscotch and caramel. Spit two or three of every five wines you sample if you can’t spit them all. At least some of the tastings should be just that. Think about carrying your own travelling paper spitty coffee

cup. This gets around the problem of cups not being available – or people ‘hogging the available spittoons. You can rinse your spit cup regularly with the water that is available at every table. British Columbia wineries should be next up. Do yourself a favour and track down a sipping sample of Time Estate
Winery’s ‘Sundial Vineyard’ Meritage (99853) $35.25. The partnership of Harry McWatters and Bob Wareham decided a blend of 60 per cent Merlot, 29 per cent Cabernet Sauvignon and 11per cent Cabernet Franc would give them the combination of red berries, black cherries and peppery rose petal and sage nuances they
were after in their Bordeaux-styled blend. Regardless of your intentions, when you’re sampling even a small fraction of the more than 750 wines that will be available for you pleasure and enlightenment, you’ll start to get a little light-headed. Drink lots of water before you go and keep sipping as you work your way through the evening. You’ll feel better for it in the morning. After BC, California is the best represented individual region at the 38th annual Vancouver International Wine Festival. Beringer Knights Valley Cabernet Sauvignon (352583) $43.60 is a classic. It oozes aromas of ripe black fruit, mocha, dried herbs and licorice. Fabulously fruit with cacao and roasted coffee notes lingering in the aftertaste. And whatever else you do, be sure to have a designated driver or some plan to avoid driving. It is always safer to have a non-drinker in charge of the driving.

FRIDAY, CAMPBELL RIVER RIVER MIRROR MIRROR || 63 FRIDAY, FEBRUARY FEBRUARY 19, 19, 2016 2016 || CAMPBELL
www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com
2016 marks the 100th anniversary of Sir Ernest Shackleton’s amazing rescue of his stranded crew from Elephant Island in the Antarctic. Most people will not get the chance to visit Antarctica but you can enjoy the stunning vistas and hear about the amazing wildlife at a free presentation by Philip Stone on Wednesday, February 24. Stone was part of a twelve person “expedition team” who accompanied travelers on a cruise to the Antarctic in the fall of 2015. Their journey re-traced much of the route and visited some of the places pivotal to Shackleton’s saga. “The midnight sun was one of the biggest challenges of the trip.” said Stone “There were so many amazing things to see that it’s easy to forget to rest.” You can enjoy some stunning images and video in comfort at Stone’s presentation. The evening will cover the wildlife, scenery

Don’t get discouraged – our family is out there
T
of the marriage or the exact date, but you do have the groom’s name and probably other clues that can help narrow your search. It’s a bit of a guess and by golly method, but you’ll likely ferret the name out. If the woman had a son or two, check their middle names. Sons were often given the mother’s maiden name. That was the case with a search for my greatgreat grandmother. By taking a gamble that her son’s second name – Solly – was odd enough to be her maiden name, I plugged it into my search and – Voila! There she was, and there were a ton more leads to follow. You can also check marriage and baptismal records of other family members for clues. Your unknown female relative may have
witnessed a recorded event. Don’t get trapped into using a relative’s exact name in your searches either. Your ancestors didn’t always stick to one name or one spelling, and neither should you. My grandmother went by Amy on some documents, Annie on others, and Anna on still others, and since she was illiterate, it was up to whoever was doing the recording to choose
the spelling. When the CRGS Quest team was trying to find my great grandfather, they had no luck searching for Philip William Martin, which they thought was his official name. It wasn’t until they searched for Philip Martin that the floodgates opened, and suddenly that side of my family was traceable to the 17th Century. So don’t get discouraged if you seem to have hit a dead end. Your family is out there, but it could be hiding, so you need to get sneaky. See about the upcoming genealogy workshop on Page 75. Want to know more about getting to the roots of your family tree? We’re happy to help. Campbell River Genealogy Society meets at the Maritime Heritage Centre.

Writers on the Stage series gains momentum Canadian roots icon David Essig to play second show of series
to facilitate that (if there is).” He says there is already plenty of opportunity regionally to see musicians ply their trade, citing numerous local bars and lounges frequently offering, “quality musicians,” as well as “high quality performances by both cover and original artists presented at the Tidemark all the time. “This series was just designed to offer the chance to present a concert, of original work, in an intimate listening venue I could afford,” he laughs. “That part is important,” he says, “because these concerts receive no public funding, and

L
ocal singer/songwriter Kenneth Paul Cooper – many in these parts know him as the retired band manager of the Campbell River Indian Band – is continuing to delve further into the music scene, and has just announced another show in his Writers on the Stage series. The series began with his presentation of John Gogo and Blue Sky Miners last fall at the Rivercity Stage and continues with his presentation of Canadian Roots icon David Essig on March 5 at the same venue. When he “retired” early last year, Cooper says he had been writing and performing his solo act all over the Island, but he quickly realized,
a good listening concert with 40 to 70 people is an absolute pleasure in a small venue, but it’s a nightmare in a large venue with hundreds of empty seats.” There shouldn’t be too many of those at the March 5 event. David Essig was introduced to Canadian audiences in 1971 as, “a talented newcomer,” at the legendary Mariposa Folk Festival. Now, 45 years later, he pursues an international career as one of Canada’s finest roots music performers. He has appeared at every major folk festival in Canada and at concerts throughout the world, releasing 23
albums and continuing to tour across Canada and Europe. Described as a “spellbinding” performer, Essig embraces the Bluegrass and Delta Blues traditions he grew up with, but moves with grace between country, blues and avant-garde and is considered one of Canada’s finest slide guitarists. And tickets for the Campbell River show at the Rivercity Stage are only $20. You can get tickets for the show online at tidemarktheatre.com, the Tidemark Theatre box office, The Music Plant on 11th Avenue downtown, or by calling 250-923-9916.

“local folks would get tired of shows by me alone on a frequent basis,” he laughs, “but that there are a lot of similar singer/songwriters who would be of interest. I envisioned providing listening concerts with me as host,
presenting notable guest writing performers.” When asked if the development of this performance series – which Cooper hopes will become a quarterly event – was based on a perceived gap in the regions’ current musical
programming offerings, his answer was an unequivocal, “No.” “There were no ‘negatives’ in the development of this vision,” he says. “I just want to see if there is an audience for good writer/ performers and I want

Sixteen-year-old Madelynn (Maddy) Erickson of Campbell River has always loved playing violin and that love has brought her opportunities to travel, perform, earn many accolades and study with high-calibre teachers. Maddy began playing violin at age six. She is now an advanced student of Joan Blackman, former Associate Concert Master for the Vancouver Symphony, travelling to Nanaimo to study with her once a week at the Nanaimo Conservatory of Music. Maddy and her mother Janet have been making the weekly trip down to Nanaimo for the past six years, as she previously studied with James Mark. Maddy has been playing violin for 10 years. “I started out playing fiddle music when I was younger, but as I grew up, I migrated towards more classical playing,” she said. “My teachers started introducing classical pieces, more for technique than anything, and I kind of fell in love with the style and then I got a teacher who was amazing at classical playing, and that was kind of it.” It was at that point that Maddy ended up at the NMC, studying with Mark. In 2012, Maddy was awarded the Gold Medal Award for her Grade 8 violin exam with the highest mark in B.C. In

Madelynn Erickson has been studying at the Nanaimo Conservatory of Music.
2014, she completed her Grade 10 violin with First Class Honours. Maddy began asking to play when she was five or six. Her family didn’t play, but she could always pick out the violin when she listened to songs on the radio. “I remember the day I decided this is something she really, really wants to do so I have to make this happen,” said Janet. “I picked her up from school; she was in Grade 1 and she was in her little booster seat in the back of the van and I’m at a stop sign and I’m looking at her in the rearview mirror, and she goes ‘Mom, I just really want to play the violin.’ I had been trying to talk her into the piano because we had a piano. I was like ‘okay, I’m just gong to start phoning people. I don’t know where to start, but I’ll start somewhere.’”
Maddy can’t imagine not playing violin. “I’ve always loved it,” she said. “The thought never crossed my mind to stop. I love the challenge. It stimulates everything - there’s nothing that engages your brain more than playing an instrument, and I love that.” For the past seven years, Maddy has participated in the North Island Festival of the Performing Arts and has represented the North Island at the Provincial Music Festival for the past six years. In recent years, she has also played in the Campbell River Festival. Along with the violin, Maddy also studies piano with Shelley Roberts in Campbell River and has recently completed her Grade 9 piano exam with First Class Honours. Maddy has also completed all of her Rudi-

ments, Basic, Intermediate and Advanced Harmony, two Music History courses and is currently working on Analysis with Sandy Havelaar in Campbell River. For the past six years, Maddy has played with the Strathcona Symphony Orchestra and she is currently playing with the Serenata Chamber Orchestra. At age 12, Maddy won the Provincial Fiddle Championship for her age category, and she continues to fiddle for fun. Maddy volunteers to play fiddle at local old age homes and she volunteers with the fiddle club at Sandowne Elementary. Maddy is currently in Grade 11 and a parttime student at Carihi. She is doing her main academics at the school and doing her electives at home. Looking ahead, Maddy would like to pursue music in university, and she would like to play with an orchestra. She would also like to teach. She currently teaches and loves it. “It’s amazing how teaching my own students has given me a new perspective as a student,” she said. “[Teaching] is very rewarding. I love seeing how people get so excited when they finally get something or something finally hits them, and it’s just like this lightbulb moment. It’s so cool.” Janet says it has been very rewarding as a parent to watch Maddy do so well with her music. “It’s been amazing to watch her,” she said. “It’s taken us into a whole different world, a whole different group of people. It’s just been so amazing.”

Dad was born in Nanaimo, BC growing up there and on the family Farm in Deep Bay where his love and respect for the woods grew. As a young man he moved to Campbell River to work on the water pipeline and then as a papermaker. Becoming a wellrespected tour boss at Catalyst Paper. He raised four children as a single father, guiding us throughout our lives with wisdom, respect, fairness and great love. He was a man above all others and we will deeply miss his presence in our lives. After a heart attack in 1991 dad decided to retire to Deep Bay, his heart’s desire, and ďŹ lled his days doing what he loved most, working the beach growing and harvesting oysters or in the bush restoring the forest and streams on his property. Dad received several awards for his stewardship of the environment, the Governor Generals Award of Canada, Private Forest Stewardship Award, awards from Ducks Unlimited among others. The family wishes to express deep gratitude to the team that made it possible for dad to spend his ďŹ nal days at home. In accordance with Dad’s wishes there will be no service, but a private family interment will take place at a later date. If desired donations may be made in Dad’s name to Fanny Bay Salmonid Enhancement Society 8425 Berray Rd. Fanny Bay, BC V0R 1W0 or to the BC Heart and Stroke Foundation 200 – 1212 West Broadway Vancouver, BC V6H 3V2

In Loving Memory of a devoted husband, father and friend who passed one year ago, February 20, 2015. Not a day goes by that we don't think about you and miss you. The void and ache in our hearts is a constant reminder.
In memory of
Neil McMillan February 22, 2008
Those special moments of you will always bring a smile. If only we could have you back for just a little while. Then we could sit and talk again just like we used to do. You always meant so very much and always will do too. The fact that you are no longer here will always cause us pain. But you are forever in our hearts Until we meet again. Your wife, children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren ~ The McMillan Clan

“They say there is a reason They say that time will heal But neither time nor reason Will change the way we feel For no one knows the heartache That lies behind our smiles No one knows how many times We have broken down and cried We want to tell you something So there won’t be any doubt You’re so wonderful to think about But so hard to live without Though absent you are always near, Still loved, still missed, still very dear.�

DEATHS
Helen Frances Lasota (Stone) July 14, 1942 – February 11, 2016 It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that the family of Helen Lasota announces the sudden passing of our Mom – the cherished heart and soul of our family. Born to William and Nelly Stone in Montreal, Que. Passed away in Victoria, B.C. Helen was predeceased by her husband Ray, her brother Fred, and her sisters Pat and Josie. Helen is survived and will be infinitely remembered by her daughter Angela and three sons, Raymond (Leslie), Jeffery (Gina), and Joe (Karla); her 10 granddaughters: Scottia-Lynn, Shayna, Rebecca, Kaitlyn, Brittanii, Cassadii, Kenadii, Avarii, Kelsey, and Kaylee; along with numerous nieces, nephews and all their children. A Wife, a Mother, a Nana, an Aunt, and a friend to so many. Every life touched by her was enriched by the experience. Helen dedicated her entire life to being a “Mom� and a “Nana� to her family whom she loved so deeply. Helen was a kind and gentle person who lived to make her family happy. She will be forever remembered for her infectious laugh, generous nature, and unconditional love for everyone. Helen has left us with wonderful memories and a legacy of love and family that we will carry with us forever. A celebration of life will be held at the Port McNeill Lions Hall on Saturday, February 20, 2016 at 2 PM.

islandfuneralservices.com For some families, Rosemarie & Kent Roduck viewing is chosen as a Owners / Funeral Directors matter of course. Yet, some are apprehensive saying they prefer to remember the deceased “as he or she was.� However, the last time you saw the person may not have been a comforting experience. We have found that those who have chosen to view prior to cremation or burial have always been grateful to once again see the person they love privately at peace and looking cared for. Even if only one or two people need this last chance to “say goodbye�, it should be granted.
As Funeral Directors, we respect whichever decision a family makes in this regard, but experience has taught us that it’s better to have done it, than to wish you had.

Writer’s novel based on job she couldn’t let go of Lindsay Chung CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
D
iana Stevan’s work resumé is full of a wide range of experiences, from teacher to model and broadcaster, but it’s her time as a clinical social worker that has influenced her newest novel. Stevan, who lives in Campbell River, will be releasing her second novel, The Rubber Fence, on March 3, and the story is inspired by her experience as a family therapist on a psychiatric ward. As a clinical social worker, Stevan spent more than 25 years in the field, working in a variety of settings - psychiatric, child guidance, cancer agency and private practice. Stevan has also worked as a teacher, professional model, actress and a sports writer/ broadcaster for CBC television. Through it all, writing has been her passion, even though it was relegated to the backseat while her children were young. She has published fitness and travel articles for newspapers, poetry in the U.K. journal Dreamcatcher and a short story in Escape, an anthology published by Peregrin. Her first novel, A Cry From The Deep, was published in 2014, and she published a novelette called The Blue Nightgown in 2015. The Rubber Fence is set in 1972 and is fictional but inspired by Stevan’s experience. “In 1972, I had just graduated with my Master of Social Work and I found myself in the psychiatric ward and it was very challenging because I had been trained as a family therapist,” said Stevan. Stevan was anxious to do family therapy work on the ward, but there was a lot of resistance at the time, and there were quick fixes like shock treatment. Stevan found this very difficult, and she didn’t stay at the ward for very long. “I had a very difficult time and I think it sat in my gut after I left,” she said. “I moved on because it was a job I found hard to leave in the workplace and I had a young family and that wasn’t a good mix for me. But what happened on that ward stuck with me and because I have a passion for writing, it became a story that couldn’t let go of.” Originally, Stevan wrote this story as a screenplay. She had an agent for it in both Toronto and Vancouver and had interest from Jodie Foster’s agent, but she eventually passed on it. Because it was so challenging to sell a screenplay, Stevan decided to turn this story into a novel. “So it’s taken a long journey,” she said. “The story changed somewhat because it’s a dif-

ferent style. With a screenplay, you’re looking at writing cinematically, visually, and here I had to of course look at the thoughts of my characters and write out their behaviour, which you don’t have that luxury of doing in a screenplay it’s mostly dialogue, with some scene description. I enjoyed the process; it was wonderful.” Stevan is a member of a writers’ critique group here in Campbell River, and she says she has received a lot of support and help from that group, which she describes as “wonderful” and “fabulous.” The other members are Kristin Butcher, Jocelyn Reekie, Janet Smith, Shari Green, Sheena Gnos and Liezl Sullivan, and many of them are published authors as well. Stevan has been part of this group for more than 10 years, and she was part of a screenwriters’ group in Vancouver as well. She keeps in touch with that group and still sees them sometimes when she goes over to the city. Stevan sees groups like this as a great way to keep learning. “You never stop learning about the craft,” she said. Stevan doesn’t know where her desire to be a writer came from. She married young and had children and supported her husband as he went back to school and then she went back to school herself for her Masters, but she joined the Manitoba Authors Association and was always writing short stories and published some articles. Stevan writes in many different genres, and she finds that in fiction, it is inspiring when you hit upon a phrase that just comes out of you organically and she likes the idea that you can move people with your words. The Rubber Fence, which, like A Cry From The Deep, is self-published, will be available March 3 as both a paperback and an e-book. There will be a book launch locally April 10 at the Campbell River Library at 2 p.m. Trevor McMonagle, a retired English teacher, will interview Stevan, and she will do a book reading and book signing, and there will be copies of the book for sale.

Looking for family in all the right places – genealogy seminar The Campbell River Genealogy Society will welcome back presenter, Joyce Young, to their seminar on Saturday, March 5. Until 2005, all Young really knew of her family’s history was that her relatives hailed from Newfoundland and the United Kingdom. But a family reunion to celebrate the arrival of her Rochford ancestors to Canada sent her digging through old passenger lists. She was determined
to find proof of their arrival. How hard could it be, she thought? Needless to say, she was hooked and has been researching her family ever since. Today Young is the society researcher and Vice-President in charge of Programs for the Vernon & District Family History Society. The following topics will be presented at the seminar: 1. An update of Familysearch.org to include the new digital book col-
lection and other lesser known features. 2. A case study searching for living family members and how to find all those cousins for a family reunion. 3. Adding history to your family history – what kind of home your ancestors lived in, what they did for a living and where to find such information. 4. The things you can learn from newspapers. The seminar will take place at the Maritime
Heritage Centre in the Rotary Hall from 9:30 a.m. until 3 p.m. Doors will open at 8:45 a.m.for those who would like to browse in the genealogy library beforehand. The cost of the seminar is $50 which will include refreshments. There will be an added charge for those who wish to order a bagged lunch. To register, contact Janice at (250) 203-0585 or check out the website: www. rootsweb.com/~bccrgc/ crevents.html
An upcoming genealogy workshop will help you trace your family history.

care for your bird. Housing Bird cages are preferably made of wire (not bamboo) and with no sharp protruding objects. Cages should not be soldered with lead-based solder as lead is toxic if ingested. Cages should be as large as you have room for. Preferably they should be wide enough for the birds to move freely to different perch levels. Tall narrow cages are not recommended because birds tend to move laterally and not vertically. Your cage should be large enough for your bird to express its natural inclinations to move around, to flap its wings and to preen without touching the sides of the cage. A paper-lined metal tray below a grid allows for easier cleaning of droppings and discarded food. Scrub perches regularly. Be sure your natural perch is the right size, has no pesticides in or on the wood, is a non-toxic type of tree, and is clean (scrub the branches with vinegar, then put them in the oven for half an hour at 125° C or 250° F). The best perches can be made from natural tree branches such as fruit and citrus trees. Natural perches offer proper footing and exercise as compared to smooth round poles or plastic perches. Sandpaper perches should be removed as they irritate the bird's feet and fail to trim the nails as advertised. Nails should be trimmed by a veterinarian or someone with experience in performing this task. Place perches in such a way that the birds' droppings won't contaminate food or water.
Cover the cage at night as this provides a feeling of security and prevents drafts. Environment Cages should be placed in a room with a window. In the warmer months and under supervision the cage may be taken outside but be sure there is shade available. Give your bird a bowl of water for bathing several times a week, or use a water mister to spray your bird's feathers. Keep your pet warm and out of drafts until completely dry. Normal house temperatures of 21-27° C (70-80° F) are tolerated well by pet birds. Sick birds should be kept slightly warmer. Avoid sudden changes in temperature. Be sure your bird has a safe environment to explore if you let him out of his cage. Give your bird safe toys such as rawhide dog chews and pine cones to play with. Feeding Seed mixtures alone are not a balanced and complete diet as birds require nutrients from five food groups. 1. Grains, cereals, seeds: Up to 50% of the total diet should consist of whole wheat bread, pasta, cooked brown rice, whole nuts, etc. Note: Sunflower seeds should be avoided or at least strictly limited because of their high fat content. 2. Fresh vegetables: Feed up to 45% of the total diet. Examples include spinach, carrots, parsley, squash (include the seeds!) and corn. 3. Fresh fruit: Fruits, along with meat and dairy,
Woofys VALID WITH THIS COUPON AT ALL WOOFY’S LOCATIONS • EXPIRES MARCH 20, 2016
www.woofys.ca
should comprise only about 5% of the total diet but are important and must not be overlooked. Fresh fruits include cantaloupe, apricots, apples, grapes, berries. Warning: Avocados are poisonous to birds. 4. Protein: These include tofu products, beef, chicken, fish, cooked eggs, peanuts, lima or kidney beans. 5. Dairy: Birds on mostly seed diets require more of this group including cottage cheese, hard cheeses, cuttlebone, oyster shell, mineral block. Note: If a bird refuses foods from this group then calcium supplements in crushed tablet or liquid form may be mixed with other foods. Supply your bird with separate containers for seeds, fresh food and water. Always present fresh foods in bite-sized pieces, not large chunks. Fresh food should be removed after a maximum of eight hours. Clean food and water containers daily and sanitize once a week in a dishwasher or scrub with soapy hot water then rinse well. However, if you do not have the time to always prepare fresh food for your bird there are various pellet diets, ranging from complete and balanced to supplementary feeds, for your bird. Ask your veterinarian which is right for your pet. These pellets contain all the necessary vitamins for your bird. Supplying vitamins through pelleted food can be a better method than using powdered or liquid vitamins. Powder vitamins often filter down to the bottom of the bird feed cup and liquid vitamins placed in drinking water promote bacterial growth
❹
and should not be used. However, if you care to continue using vitamin powder, place a light sprinkling of a vitamin powder (such as Super-Preen) and a heavier sprinkling of a ground-up high quality dry dog food over the top of the seed each time you fill your bird's seed container. Most avian veterinarians and aviculturalists no longer recommend feeding grit to birds, because of the diet most pet birds eat. Feeding your bird grit may cause grit crop impaction, which is a potentially serious medical problem. Check with your veterinarian. Preventative Health Care Normal care involves nail and beak trimming, and wing clipping. Avoid: • Sandpaper perches as they increase foot problems • Mite sprays or containers placed on the cage • Unsafe toys such as small chain links, objects containing lead, balsa wood, sharp objects • Air pollutants such as cigarette smoke, overheated Teflon utensils, insecticide sprays, access to treated or painted wood, cedar. • Poisonous house plants. When introducing a bird into a home already housing another bird, first, take the bird to an avian veterinarian for a thorough checkup prior to taking your pet home; second, keep the new bird in a separate room for four weeks as a form of quarantine; and finally, if all is well, cages may be placed in the same room.
LOCATIONS TO SERVE YOU BETTER
Medical Care You can avoid many health problems by ensuring you get a healthy bird in the beginning. Birds and other exotic animals are masters at hiding sickness. The first signs of a sick bird are usually subtle and easily missed. Consult your veterinarian immediately if you notice any of the following: • Appearance - fluffed up feathers, weakness, sitting on cage floor, swellings on body, bleeding, discharges. • Breathing - wheezing or clicks, tail bobbing, laboured respiration. • Droppings - overly wet, no white colour, change of the dark part. • Food consumption - increased or decreased. • Behaviour - stops singing, inactive, sleeping longer. For more complete information on your particular bird consult a pet care manual, your veterinarian and/or contact a local bird club. Source: www.spca.bc.ca

Did you know?
Debunking myths about spaying and nutering Companion animal overpopulation poses a considerable problem. One of the easiest solutions to the pet overpopulation problem is to have pets spayed or neutered. In 2015 the BC SPCA provided spay/ neuter surgeries and permanent pet identification for 6,703 incoming shelter animals. The BC SPCA is committed to 100% pre-adoption spay/ neuter and permanent identification for all dogs, puppies, cats kittens and rabbits.
Myth: It's adviseable to spay a female pet after she has at least one litter.
Many pet owners are hesitant to have their animals spayed or neutered. That hesitation may stem from some prevailing myths surrounding spaying or neutering.
Myth: The sterilization procedure is painful for my pet.
Myth: You can use neutering or spaying interchangeably to describe the sterilization process. Fact: Neutering is associated with male pets and the removal of the testicles. Spaying is for female pets and involves the removal of both the ovaries and uterus. Myth: Recovery from spaying and neutering takes a long time. Fact: Many veterinarians and animal clinics allow pet owners to bring their pets home on the same day the animal is spayed or neutered. Pets are usually fully recovered within a week of having the surgery. Myth: Removing reproductive organs will make my pet get fat and lazy. Fact: Weight gain is not a byproduct of spaying and neutering. Pet weight gain is typically linked to an unhealthy diet and inadequate exercise. Myth: My pet's personality will change for the worse. Fact: Pet behavior may improve after the animal is spayed or neutered. Males tend to be less aggressive, and females won't howl, cry or pace when they're in heat. Also, your pet actually may stick closer to home because the desire to find a mate has been reduced.
Fact: Many veterinarians stand by medical evidence that suggests females spayed before their first heat are typically healthier than those who aren't. Myth: It is expensive to have my pet spayed or neutered. Fact: Subsidized voucher programs as well as lowcost spay/neuter clinics can help make the procedure affordable.
Fact: The surgery is done under general anesthesia, and the pet will not feel anything. Discomfort after the surgery is usually mild, and a vet can prescribe a postoperative pain medication if your pet seems to have any lingering discomfort. Myth: If I keep my pet intact, I can have a puppy or a kitten just like him or her one day. Fact: The offspring of a pet is not guaranteed to be a duplicate in looks or personality to your existing pet. In addition, at a later point in life, you may find your schedule or ability to care for a young pet has changed. Pet overpopulation is a considerable problem with wide-ranging consequences. Pet owners should speak with their pets' veterinarians about spaying and neutering.
Feral cats and stray cats are not one and the same. Feral cats are those born and raised in the wild, or those cats that have been abandoned or lost and turned to a feral lifestyle in order to survive. Feral cats are often too wild to be handled, and many live in groups known as colonies, taking refuge wherever they can find food. While this may sound similar to stray cats, pet adoption professionals make a distinction between feral and stray cats. Unlike feral cats, the BC SPCA defines stray cats as those that have been abandoned or become lost, tend to be tame and can be comfortable around people. Such cats may purr, meow and rub against legs of humans who come into contact with them. Stray cats often rely on humans for food, whereas colonies of feral cats will typically feed on garbage, rodents and other small animals. The life expectancy of a stray cat depends on when it was lost or abandoned and how effective it is at find a reliable food source, while many feral cats do not survive kittenhood. The average lifespan for those feral cats that do is less than two years outside of a colony but can be as long as 10 years when living in a colony with an established caretaker. Such caretakers may be an individual or a group of individuals who provide feral cats with their basic needs, such as food, shelter and even emergency medical care.

explains how it could accomplish this nearly impossible task. Oil companies are suffering currently from extremely low crude prices, with little likelihood that the value will rise any time soon. Iranian production is entering the market just as the world is glutted with oil, and the OPEC
cartel has forced down the price by collapsing into a jumble of competitors. Operation and exploration costs for Western producers are high, while the strong American dollar is adding to their financial burden. This is devastating for small oil companies — they are beginning to
collapse. It’s even serious for integrated oil companies such as Shell, BP and Exxon. E ven though they can produce, refine and distribute, their stock values and profits are still dropping. As they have traditionally done, they are trying to maintain stock

value by replacing their pumped oil with new reserves. Although, as Reguly notes, they have terminated about $380 billion in projects since 2014, the largest 75 companies are still spending about $500 billion per year on exploration and development. Meanwhile, sitting on the sidelines are the “corporate raiders and hedge fund bosses,” the so-called “raiders” and “hedgies” who know how to make considerable money from distressed situations. And the oil companies are becoming prime targets because they are extremely valuable — they just aren’t profitable in the current situation. But vast fortunes could be wrung out of them with a different strategy. So, the corporate raiders and hedgies buy the oil companies and then begin a long and gradual process known as self-liquidation. First, they end all exploration and development, thereby freeing billions of dollars to pocket as profits.
