Walmart seeks city taxation refund By JOSH MASSEY AN ONGOING court challenge by Walmart of the assessed property value of its supercentre here has put the City of Terrace into the position of budgeting for a potential refund of taxes already paid by the corporation. The corporation is appealing its 2013 and 2014 assessments but not the one for last year. Assessment values are determined by the B.C.
Assessment Authority, an independent agency, and not by local governments although those values set do have impact when local governments determine the rates to be paid by various property classifications. Walmart’s 2015 tax bill was more than $410,000 with just under $310,000 of that representing municipal taxes. One of the city’s largest property tax payers, Walmart’s 2013 and 2014 tax bills were within the same range.
Should Walmart win its court challenge, the exact amount of any refund is not known. “We have approximately $79,000 set aside but this amount is an estimate and we are awaiting the court decision on this matter,” said city corporate administrator Alisa Thompson in a statement. The potential for a refund has caused the city to adjust downward its anticipated taxation revenues for this year. That dip is ap-
proximately $154,000, from $12.696 million based on provisional figures late last year to $12.542 million now when other adjustments are taken into account. The prospect of a Walmart tax refund is being buffered by a $4 million federal gas tax grant recently announced for a substantial overhaul of the city’s aquatic centre. It is now allowing the city to use money it had already tucked away in a capital reserve for the pool and other
projects for other purposes, says mayor Carol Leclerc. “The gas tax windfall that we got, that was a huge difference,” said Leclerc of the federal money. “[We] built a capital reserve of $150,000 per year, so that was able to come into other programs that we could look at,” she said. “We are still sitting at a comfortable surplus,” said Leclerc, adding that the city budget, which will be finalized this spring, is still one with a zero tax increase.
Walmart opened its store here in 2004 and in late 2014 completed extensive interior renovations to the 112,000 square-foot facility so that it could add a full-service grocery section. Its ranking as one of the city’s largest taxpayers accelerated when the city lost a large sawmill, Skeena Cellulose/Terrace Lumber Company, in the last decade and when Skeena Sawmills was closed for several years late in the last decade and early into this one.
Rally boosts LNG industry By JOSH MASSEY

■ Nailing it down KOREY HUCKSTEAD from Copper Mountain Exteriors, previously Eco Rite Roofing, screws down a new sheet of plywood on the roof of the Anglican church on Lakelse Avenue. Behind him are Terrence Fagen and Robert Elliott. The crew stripped off the original 1990 cedar shingles from the 5,000 square-foot church roof and replaced it with new, lifetime shingles.
IT FORMED an imposing procession heading into Terrace from Thornhill just before noon March 16 – approximately 50 work trucks and construction vehicles including a front-end loader decked out with pro-liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry and jobs signs. One of three rallies timed for that same day with others in Fort St. John and Fort Nelson, the one held in Terrace saw more than 120 people gather at the west side of the Skeena Mall parking lot to present a voice of enthusiasm, or “yes”, to the proposed LNG industry promised for the north. Lucy Praught, an industry and First Nations consultant, was one of several who spoke to the crowd along with Terrace mayor Carol Leclerc, accompanied by three members of her council, and Haisla First Nation chief councillor Ellis Ross from Kitamaat Village. The truck drivers, construction and other trades workers who attended the rally found a voice in Amy Rutter who is a fourth-year apprentice electrician at Northwest Community College and her husband Adam, a sales and branch manager for Premium Truck & Trailer, who spoke at the rally as well. Rutter said she wants to stay here with her whole family. “We can’t stay if there is nowhere for them to work,” she said of her children. “They will leave home and I will never see them again.”

Families coping with fire loss
what caused the fire to start in the house next to Weget’s. He did say that the fire department was leaning toward something involving a wood pellet stove and possibly its exhaust or embers. The stove was installed correctly, met the code and followed all the city bylaws and something happened similar to a spark flying off a fireplace or out a chimney and igniting, Jephson said. The two-storey house that started on fire suffered extensive damage to floors, roof and walls due to high winds. Those same winds then helped the blaze spread to the Weget residence where flames raced up into its truss system. “Fortunately crews were able to spot it right away and were able to prevent more damage,” Jephson said of the Weget residence. While firefighters doused the front of the first house, another truck in behind the second house sprayed water over its roof to help keep flames at bay. The Thornhill Volunteer Fire Department also responded, bringing a ladder truck, a piece of equipment the Terrace fire department doesn’t have. The fire in the first house at 4613 Straume (the Weget residence is at 4615 Straume) was reported approximately 4:30 p.m. March 15 and firefighters were on the scene until late that evening, returning periodically overnight to check for hotspots. A RCMP vehicle was stationed at the location overnight.
By MARGARET SPEIRS JAMES WEGET grabbed a coat to shield his face from the flames and heat while escaping the blaze which damaged his Straume Ave. home March 15. “It happened so fast,” said Weget of the late afternoon fire which started next door but fanned by heavy winds, then leapt across to the roof of his rented residence on the 4600 Block of Straume. His daughter was watching TV with her spouse and children when someone banged on the window, yelling “You guys got to get out, there’s a fire next door.” His other daughter, who’s pregnant, her spouse and 18-month-old child were downtown at the time. The house isn’t liveable anymore because of a lot of smoke and water damage, said Weget. The local victim services agency provided clothing, a hotel room and food for Weget and his family while citizens gathered donations. Weget said one of his daughters spoke to the Red Cross later last week to see if it could help out with more days in the hotel. The family from the house that caught fire was also believed to be staying in a hotel. There were no reported injuries. Terrace deputy fire chief Dave Jephson said the fire department was waiting for the results of an insurance investigation before knowing for sure MARGARET SPEIRS PHOTOS
TOP, JAMES Weget takes a look at his rented Straume Ave. house which was damaged March 15 after a fire in the house next door spread. Bottom, firefighters battle the blaze and heavy smoke fanned by high winds.
High winds can endanger firefighters HIGH WINDS that pushed a March 15 house fire at 4613 Straume Ave. to the house next door also engulfed firefighters with heavy smoke, says Terrace fire department deputy chief Dave Jephson. And several ended up with smoke inhalation, he said. “Even though precautions were taken, for example, one of the pump operators put on a mask and at the end of the fire, his mask was black and he wasn’t even near the fire,” he said. That’s because even though firefighters stand in a safe place, the wind pushes smoke towards them, Jephson added. “Even though [the] command [lead firefighter] was standing out front in a safe spot, the wind changes and ‘boom’ he gets hit by smoke,” he said. The heavy smoke also affected a BC Hydro worker there to cut power to the two homes and firefighters had him go down the street instead to a transformer which meant the power was cut to the whole block, Jephson said. It’s standard practice for a B.C. Ambulance Service ambulance to be stationed at the scenes of fires, not only in case there are injuries to fire victims but also to respond to firefighters who have suffer injuries or be affected by smoke. Jephson said it’s been several years since a fire of this size, particularly one affecting more than one family in more than one residence, has taken place in Terrace.

Ross spoke of the Haisla participation in evaluating natural gas pipelines and proposed LNG projects for the Kitimat area for their environmental and economic impacts. “Haisla has been reviewing LNG projects ever since the 80s, when it was talked about an import facility,” said Ross of early on expectations that Canada would be bringing in the super-cooled fuel from other countries. “In 2004, we started reviewing again for an export facility... while everyone else was playing catch up, the Haisla were trying to wait out the rest of B.C. saying yes to LNG.” “Currently there are people working in my territory from all over B.C.

Leclerc spoke of the city’s stance in recent history to promote the idea of big projects in the area such as the Rio Tinto Alcan smelter modernization project at Kitimat and B.C. Hydro’s Northwest Transmission Line. “I think the message today to Ottawa is that they recognize that if you are going to make really important decisions on economic drivers to British Columbia and to Northwest British Columbia, that you understand where people are at and where people are coming from and where they want to be,” said Praught in comments made after the rally. With expectations rising last week for an anticipated decision this week by federal environment minister Catherine McKenna and the rest of the cabinet on whether or not to grant a environmental certificate to the Petronas-backed Pacific NorthWest LNG project proposed for Lelu
ation Coalition, a Terrace-based group which has been critical of how the Pacific NorthWest LNG project has been evaluated by federal agencies, issued its own release regarding the rally. The coalition and other groups say Lelu Island is too sensitive to allow industrial de-
velopment on because of the importance of surrounding waters to Skeena River salmon habitat. “We need to have positive and creative conversations about development, ones that don’t pit community against community, or jobs against healthy salmon runs. Some
up front planning and independent science would be a good start,” said SkeenaWild executive director Greg Knox. “We believe with all our hearts that if communities take the lead in this conversation, and work together in fixing these broken processes, we can enjoy a healthy economy, and healthy
salmon. Our families deserve both.” Late last week the elected mayor of Lax Kwa’laams, a Tsimshian First Nations community at first opposed to Pacific NorthWest LNG, gave conditional approval. But John Helin said the project must first adhere to strict safeguards.

EDITORIAL
Detox OF the 16 recommendations from the coroner’s jury report into the September 2013 death of Alyssa George, the most important is the one addressed to the City of Terrace, the Northern Health Authority, the First Nations Health Authority and the provincial health ministry calling for them to investigate the establishment of a “proper medically staffed substance abuse/detox centre” here. George, 25, was arrested on outstanding warrants and placed in RCMP cells here only to be found in such a state of medical distress later she was flown to a Vancouver hospital where she subsequently died. Coroners or their juries establish facts, not blame, and the simple tragic fact here is that George’s advanced state of alcohol addiction had so ravaged her body she was beginning to shut down regardless of whether she had been in a police cell or not. Whether George would have benefited at some point in her life from a detox centre cannot be known but having a jury recommend the call to investigate the establishment of one demonstrates far-ranging thinking. Recommendations are just that, recommendations, and a coroner’s jury has no power of enforcement. Yet the city and the health agencies have to respond. In this case, the deadline is April 11. There is no way a detox centre will happen overnight but a clear statement of need will be the first step toward a resolution.

teve Harvey’s TV show has replaced a number of early afternoon talk shows I once watched such as Dr. Phil, which has devolved into a repetition of abusive relationships, to women-only shows that lost me when lax hosting allowed four panelists and a guest to speak at once until I could distinguish nothing. Harvey’s March 3 show invited James Harrison, a Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker, to defend his parenting style after the social world erupted last August when people learned he had returned the participation award his five-year-old son had been given by his school. The youngest of 14 kids, Harrison believes you have to earn everything you get, nothing is given to you. That’s the philosophy he was raised by and the philosophy he and his wife share raising their two young sons. His son didn’t whine or cry when James returned the award. The kid was prepared to be without it, knowing in their family you have to work to be rewarded. This parenting style is so out of vogue these days. As

CLAUDETTE SANDECKI Judge Judy said in an interview, “Kids are told, “Good job!” or “You’re awesome!” for everything little thing they do, even tying their shoelaces. In a survey of American teenagers, most could name every celebrity and who they are marrying or divorcing, but 25 per cent couldn’t name the vice-president of the United States.” Even in higher grades some Canadian students don’t learn even rudimentary math. A volunteer working in an old folks home sat in to make up a foursome playing bridge one afternoon with an 80-year-old man, a 91-yearold woman and her Grade 9
grandson. Now I don’t play bridge, have never watched a game, know absolutely nothing about the rules or how scoring is done. But I’m told at this old folks’ home the highest a player needs to be able to count is 15. Granny could do it. Her grandson couldn’t. He also pooh-poohed the rule which calls for one player dealing the cards in a clockwise rotation beginning with the player on the dealer’s left. The grandson argued it made no difference where he began dealing or in which direction. The volunteer set him straight tout de suite. Evolving language detracts in so many ways from former sterner rules. Remember when families might have trouble getting along, so hostesses took care who they seated beside whom at Thanksgiving dinner? Such families are now termed dysfunctional and counsellors of every kind stand ready to listen, diagnose and advise for a hefty fee. When I was a youngster, a drunk was a drunk.

dom hurt anyone but themselves or their hungry family. And once they sobered up, they were as good as before until the next weekend. Today we label such people alcoholics or drug dependent. Some claim to black out, remember nothing while they were speeding down a highway in an SUV that T-boned a van at an intersection killing four; or steering their snowmobile straight into an Iditarod musher and dog team killing the lead dog, and injuring several more as well as the musher. Saying they blacked out is a convenient excuse. Equally depressing is our laziness when it comes to food. Sobey’s in Thornhill, Ontario is selling Calavo avocados pre-cut in half, packaged in plastic and cardboard.

The Mail Bag LNG job fiction Dear Sir: The LNG projects are not going ahead, for all the reasons that were obvious to anyone with access to a computer several years ago. Ironically I just recently received the latest LNG community news letter which “looks forward to maintain momentum through 2016”. I guess the INFOCUS people did not get the memo about shelving the LNG projects. I for one am not disappointed that these plants are not going ahead. I am cognizant that this is not a popular position, most residents and politicians of all stripes favour LNG. In fact the premier got elected because of this fantasy. For those who believe that natural gas is the least damaging to the environment of all fuels, this was probably true once.
Library move a bad idea
FILE PHOTO
BC NATURAL gas minister Rich Coleman, far left, and Premier Christy Clark, third from left, on a tour of a Petronas facility in Malaysia. Petronas is the lead company in the Pacific NorthWest LNG project. However, today all natural gas is produced by fracking. Fracking, you know, the process that produces earthquakes and flammable tap water. The fact that one third of the gas is burned in fracking and liquefying puts into question
the environmental impact. Some scientists suggest that the fracking may put the safety of the planet at risk. Some states in the USA and Australia now make fracking illegal. LNG television ads are still taking about
“ten of thousands of jobs”. Realistically, how many residents of the northwest have skills necessary to build pipelines, compared to the thousands of skilled Albertans? At least Enbridge was honest when they told us that only
timekeepers and general labourers would be hired locally. How about the plants themselves? At least 90 per cent will be built overseas, which only leaves the connection to the lines, plus some electrical work. I am also not in fa-
vour of not collecting duties on the floating plants when you consider that hundreds of taxpaying Canadians could build these plants. A $100 million fine/tax is not unreasonable.

Dear Sir: The heading “Library looks to move into longhouse” from the March 2, 2016 issue of The Terrace Standard regarding a new use for the building at Northwest Community College is slightly misleading. Your article seems to indicate that is is the college’s proposal and not the libary’s. I do not think that this move is a good idea. The longhouse is too small for the library’s collection. The longhouse is also on the far edge of the campus, a considerable distance away from where the classes are held. Isolated such as it is, it could become a security issue. The longhouse simply wasn’t built for the purpose of housing the college’s library. Jill Nadeau, Kitimat, B.C.
Compassion best medicine for mental illness
M
y understanding of mental illness is not professional. Indeed, my knowledge of the spectrum of diseases we call mental illness is quite shallow. My deeper understanding, experience really, is of one particular illness and its effects on an individual, a beloved family member, and myself as her main non-medical support person. The big three mental illnesses, which the popular media has conditioned us to be either dismissive or fearful of are anxiety/ depression, bi-polar disorder and schizophrenia. (I use the term “mental illness,” but brain disease or neuro-biological disease would be more accurate. Though very imperfect, it is much clearer than the current euphemism “mental health” found in the lexicon of these illnesses and disorders.) So, what do I have to say that might shed even a little bit of light on a huge, and growing, often heart-breaking, always challenging health issue (actually many health issues) which effects not
only individuals, but everyone and everything in that person’s orbit? What pertinent things can I speak about from the perspective of what is called, in the mental health care field, “lived experience”? What I’d like people to know is that if you or someone in your world has a mental illness diagnosis, or a suspected mental illness, it is nobody’s fault. Neither you nor they caused the disorder. Mental illness is fairly common. A substantial percentage of people experience occasional and/or pervasive, life-long mental illness. Mental illness is not a death sentence. Lots of inspiring success stories, both small and grand, arise from this group of afflicted individuals. Clearly, however, persons with a mental illness are exposed to increased risks of physical illnesses, health complications and, indeed, increased rates of mortality. And, of course, this most unwanted diagnosis is too often accompanied by social isolation and extreme poverty.
GUEST COMMENT JUDY MCCLOSKEY There are resources and help available for you and your loved one if you suspect a mental illness, but there are undeniable gaps, some of them gaping, in both our knowledge and treatment of mental illness. One of the gaps is evidence-based research around mental illness, but that is beginning to change. Since the completion of the Human Genome Project in 2003, there has been
a surge of scientific and medical research into the brain’s functioning. Investigations into the intricate relationships between genetics and brain function or malfunction has begun to uncover new information and increased understanding of possible causes and potential prevention of some mental illnesses. When you encounter someone behaving obviously ‘oddly,’ pause for just a moment, and say to yourself, as I have learned to do, “There but for the grace of God go I (or a loved one)”. I sit on Northern Health’s Mental Health and Addictions Advisory Committee (MHAAC), which is composed of clinicians, front line workers, local resource agencies, service providers, family members (like me) and clients (those folks who have a mental illness diagnosis and are actively receiving treatment and/ or support). Over a year ago the committee began to mount an awareness campaign, “Random Acts of Mindfulness,” and I volunteered
to be involved. This column is part of that involvement, and it became a personal challenge. Each time I thought I had a handle on what I wanted to write, my thinking got jumbled and confused. Like everyone, some myths about mental illness were lurking in my brain. I had a tangle of dislocated facts, statistics, anecdotes, personal stories, warnings, encouragements, ideas, hopes, resources, etc. This column is what emerged from that tangle, with a single addition: Compassion and understanding are among the best medicines for anyone with a mental illness. Come to think of it, aren’t compassion and understanding among the best medicines for all kinds of human choices and challenges? Terrace resident Judy McCloskey is a retired Northwest Community College instructor, a member of the Northern Health Authority’s Mental Health and Addictions Advisory Committee and sits on the board of the Terrace Art Gallery.

NDP would cast wide net should MLA retire
JOSH MASSEY PHOTO
FORMER NORTHERN Drugs building on Lazelle Ave. between the post office and Terrace Interiors could very well be the new home of a cold weather shelter for the homeless.
New shelter spot to be considered KSAN HOUSE Society is getting a start on purchasing a new shelter. Council gave first and second readings to a zoning amendment that if passed will allow the non-profit to convert the building at 4614 Lazelle Ave. in downtown Terrace it wants to purchase into an extreme weather shelter for the homeless. Ksan House Society has an option to purchase the building which is between the Canada Post building and the Terrace Interiors/General Paints building. The 3,168 square foot structure, now vacant, was once the administrative office for the Northern Drugs chain of stores. Ksan had been renting the All Nations Centre on Sparks Ave. from late fall into spring for
an overnight shelter during colder weather but found it difficult to do that in conjunction with the centre’s daytime user, the Terrace and District Community Services Society, which runs its own programs there for low income and homeless people. The society has now moved its extreme shelter to its own housing and social services complex on Hall St. on the southside. Council heard that Ksan has not contacted property owners around the Lazelle Ave. location but plans to do so in the coming weeks as part of the rezoning process. The zoning change would be from C1 Commercial to P1 Public and Institutional if it passes third reading and adoption at a future council meeting.
KERMODEI DENTURE CLINIC The denturist and owner of Kermodei Denture Clinic, Rudi Peters, is very pleased to announce that denturist
John McAlarey RD
will be coming to Terrace. He will be the new owner of Kermodei Denture Clinic and beginning April 4th he will be providing a full range of denture services to the community and surrounding area.
www.terracestandard.com A8
The building could also be open year-round as a drop-in centre for the homeless. Councillor Stacey Tyers, who works for the Terrace and District Community Services Society, says she has many questions about the plan. Fellow councillor Lynne Christiansen said she is concerned about the location. The Lazelle Ave. building is listed for sale at $479,900.

SHOULD SKEENA NDP MLA Robin Austin follow through on hints that he will not run in the May 2017 provincial election, his decision will set in motion a party plan to broaden the gender and ethnic makeup of its nomination candidates here. “Our equity and diversity guidelines are that we’re searching for candidates as diverse as British Columbia,” explained BC NDP official Trish Webb. It doesn’t mean that white males cannot seek the NDP nomination for Skeena but party officials would take notice should only white males be put forward as nomination candidates, she said. “The party would step in and say can you do something about this,” Webb said. She stressed that the search for a diverse group of candidates is a guideline only and not strictly party policy. “This is not self-limiting to say that no white men need apply, but it is to say that can you find candidates that better represent the community.” As it is, the current NDP caucus at the provincial legislature is 43 per cent female, a statistic bolstered with the recent addition of two women from two February byelection victories in the Vancouver-Mount Pleasant and Coquitlam-Burke Mountain ridings. One of those elected, Melanie Mark, was also the first aboriginal woman elected to the provincial legislature. Webb said the NDP’s record of promoting diversity among its can-
didates dates back to 1949 when Frank Calder, a Nisga’a, became the first First Nations person to be elected to a Canadian provincial legislature thanks to a victory in the Atlin riding. Calder was elected as a Cooperative Commonwealth Federation member of the provincial legislature, a predecessor to the NDP which was formed in the early 1960s. Webb said the NDP record of diversity extends to having the first provincial legislators of Chinese, Korean and Filipino extraction. Austin has yet to officially state whether he will run in the May 2017 provincial election but hinted earlier this year that he was leaning toward not running. Austin said he will make his decision after the spring legislative session ends, approximately one year before the May 2017 vote and a time when party officials want to determine if current legislators will run again or not. A provincial NDP analysis of why it failed to become the governing party in the 2013 election included com-
ments on broadening its candidate base. “While the party has recorded great success in increasing access for women to represent our party as candidates, similar efforts must also be directed at B.C.’s increasingly diverse ethnic communities,” it stated. “The [NDP] provincial executive should consider changes that would ensure that our slate of 2017 candidates fully reflects the ethnic diversity of the province.” The NDP has never nominated a woman to run in Skeena but the provincial Liberals have twice, current Terrace mayor Carol Leclerc
who ran unsuccessfuly against Austin in the 2013 provincial election and Juanita Hatton who ran in the 1991 provincial election. Joanne Monaghan, a former Kitimat mayor, ran unsuccessfully in Skeena for the now-defunct Social Credit party in the 1983 provincial election and Anita Norman was the Skeena Green Party candidate in the 2009 provincial election. In the neighbouring North Coast riding, NDPer Jennifer Rice, a Prince Rupert city councillor, became its first female provincial legislator by defeating Liberal Judy Fraser in the 2013 provincial election.

Job fiction Before you assume that I am a tree hugging fanatic that is against all development, let me point out that I was a construction worker and am now retired. I am very much in favour of development projects that make sense economically and environmentally and which create local jobs for my sisters and brothers. But I am not in favour of liquidating natural gas. John Jensen, Terrace. B.C.

Responsible LNG economy possible Dear Sir: In almost 12 years as your Member of Parliament I have come to appreciate two important things about how to help create good jobs. First, bringing local communities into a project from Day 1 is absolutely critical to achieve the best technical design and obtain the broadest public support. Fifty years ago this wasn’t much of an issue. Now, it is essential. Second, we must at all costs avoid pitting the natural environment that has sustained us for millennia against potential jobs. It’s a mug’s game to sacrifice one in the promise of another and hope that in the end we will come out ahead.
On March 16 residents and contractors took to the streets in Terrace to voice their support for LNG projects broadly, and with an immediate focus on the Pacific Northwest LNG project on Lelu Island. Federal environment minister Catherine McKenna’s decision on the project was due by March 22. (She had not released a decision as of the day I submitted this letter.) From the very start, many in the region wondered why Petronas, the Malaysian state-owned energy company which is the lead participant in Pacific NorthWest LNG, and the federal and provincial govern-
!

Nathan Cullen ments chose Lelu, a site that is much more expensive to build on and much more damaging to wild salmon habitat and the entire Skeena River system. Two weeks ago, more than 130 scientists
penned an open letter to Minister McKenna refuting the weak and cynically narrow science the company financed and the federal government accepted without question. They appealed to the minister to reject the “flawed” environmental draft report for the proposed $36-billion project, identifying five primary scientific shortcomings, including disregarding research not funded by Petronas. Like many people in the Northwest, I support smart industrial development that meets the standards of rigorous science and has First Nations and community backing. I supported the AltaGas LNG propos-
al in Kitimat that was unfortunately halted last month due to poor global economic conditions and energy prices. I also support LNG projects proposed by Royal Dutch Shell, which is LNG Canada, and the Haisla near Kitimat. These projects have gained support of local communities and do not pose a threat to wild salmon. And I have publicly offered to help avoid further conflict and court battles for the Petronas project through an expedited process on a new and safer site, possibly Ridley Island. Our tradition is to work together here in the Northwest.
We work within the natural limits of this beautiful land that sustains us as we carefully construct a diversified economy that will sustain many future generations. I truly believe that smart and carefully selected LNG projects can create thousands of solid, family-sustaining jobs in our built-in-theNorthwest economy. Along with thousands of Northwesterners, I welcome proponents interested in developing a modest LNG economy here that plays by our rules. Nathan Cullen, Member of Parliament Skeena – Bulkley Valley

Police are leery of liquor request comparable to other establishments,” said the detachment’s written response. “The RCMP anticipates that this application will cause a negative impact on the community as they currently deal with a significant number of liquor-related incidents in the downtown, and this application might further stress their resources and capacity in the late evenings,” a report written by city officials for council members added. Councillor Lynne Christiansen said she took the RCMP’s opinion seriously. “Personally, I have to say that when the RCMP come back with a statement... it weighs pretty heavy with me,” she said. Other city councillors were less worried but the fact that van Dyk said that several of his patrons will leave their vehicles overnight in the mall parking lot if they have been drinking did raise some questions for Michael Prevost with regards to just how many vehicles that might be. Councillor Brian Downie suggested a compromise for closing time, or the number of days a week the establishment would be open later. “I do have some concerns about alcohol in the downtown core,” added councillor Stacey Tyers. “Based on... the social impact we see... and quite often the homeless people get blamed for it but it is more often 20-something-year-olds drinking to excess in the downtown.” Councillors Sean Bujtas and James Cordeiro said that when it comes to worries about problematic drunken activity late at night,
that this is already a problem downtown and that businesses should not be restricted by a pre-existing problem that has nothing to do with their own establishments. “I just wouldn’t want to see someone penalized while they are not the perpetrator for where the problem is coming from, unless there is a real rationale that Wings is going to contribute to the problem,” said Cordeiro. “I don’t want to penalize a downtown business,” said Bujtas, adding that at Chances Casino, where he is manager, RCMP calls are at a minimum in the late evening hours. City officials will meet again with the RCMP before city council considers and votes on a resolution concerning the application, something that will happen at an April council meeting. That resolution will then be sent to the BC Liquor Control and Licensing Branch for a decision.

A LOCAL restaurant owner’s application to serve food and alcohol until 2 a.m. has been met with resistance from the Terrace RCMP which says it won’t be able to keep up with the increased alcohol-related calls in the downtown core. The owner of Wings Tap and Grill, Evan van Dyk, told city council March 14 he wants an amended BC Liquor Control and Licensing Branch licence so he can stay open past midnight to provide a late night place for people to hang out, something lacking in the downtown core. “We have guests who will go to a late showing of a movie and will have no other options downtown. We have been reached out to by WestJet – pilots and stewardesses can’t find a place to eat.” He said that the restaurant, which opened last month in the Skeena Mall, has 16 screens constantly playing sporting events from around the globe, in a diverse array of time zones, which means staying open an extra two hours would be a boon for those wanting to see, for example, cricket or rugby games being aired overseas. The March 14 council meeting was the opportunity for members of the public and neighbouring businesses to give their opinion on the wanted licence amendment. No one did make presentations but the Terrace RCMP detachment submitted its response in a written statement. “Not supportive of all 7 weekdays until 2 a.m. No 2 a.m. on any weekday. Food primary business appropriate to remain 12 a.m.

Council officially nixes fluoride vote TERRACE CITY council has confirmed its position it won’t put the issue of whether or not to continue fluoridating the city’s water supply to a referendum. By a 6-1 vote at a regular council meeting March 14, the confirmation followed a decision made at a committee of the whole meeting the week before. Councillor Lynne Christiansen was the only councillor in favour of a holding a referendum, saying that while she has mixed feelings on the value of the chemical to prevent tooth decay and is aware of studies both for and against the practice, she felt city residents should have a choice in deciding what they ingest. “It’s a bit frustrating, because I knew there are a lot of people in the community who don’t want it,” she said, but added that she knew before the vote she would be the only councillor favouring a referendum. “I wasn’t shocked, I knew I was the only one,” Christiansen said of her lone vote. She did note there is a global movement away from using fluoride in water supplies. Councillors Michael Prevost, Stacey Tyers, Brian Downie, James Cordeiro and Sean Bujtas as well as mayor Carol Leclerc voted against the referendum idea. Leclerc said the chemical’s tooth decay prevention properties are a benefit to the lower income population of the city. The city pays $30,000 annually to run the program and $20,000 for the fluoride itself. The referendum proposal was brought to council by local anti-fluoride advocate Barry Prince who
backed his call with a petition of 422 names, 260 of those being Terrace residents and the majority of the others from Thornhill and the regional district. It’s the third time Prince has tried to con-
vince council to hold a referendum, saying the use of fluoride is harmful to the human system. Terrace first started fluoridating its water in 1964/1965 following a referendum and re-
versity of Alberta study was released showing that tooth decay had increased in Calgary since it stopped fluoridating its water in 2011, further cemented the position taken by the other council members and
the mayor. “I think they would have to organize a bit more strongly and focus on the next council,” said Christiansen about the possibility of another referendum call some day.

Unheard voices of pioneers speak By MARGARET SPEIRS
NANCY STONE ARCHER PHOTO
STEVE KIETZMANN and Robin MacLeod have a disagreement in Terrace Little Theatre’s production of Karla Hennig’s play Out of Time.
TERRACE’S HISTORY comes alive on stage as the voices of 27 pioneers speak in Terrace Little Theatre’s production of Out of Time, written and directed by Karla Hennig. And the play itself has a history, taking about 25 years to go from interviews to a finished product. All those years ago, at the women’s centre here, Hennig and others were talking about the different books about local history and realized there weren’t a lot of social history stories, said Hennig. “There were a lot about logging mills and the train but not about everyday life,” she said. Several volunteers found people to interview and record to hear their stories, added Hennig. “They are gold, they’re just gold and the idea was going to be to publish a small social history book and I was going to write a narrative theatre and invite all these little old ladies to a strawberry tea and read their stories,” she said. “Some women told me ‘you can’t use these stories until after I’m dead.’” Hennig kept the stories in hardcopy form so they wouldn’t get lost and made sure to get signed releases from the women interviewed. She tinkered with it off and on over the years and then after her play Wicked Women was produced, she wanted to do something different. “What I loved about all these stories was not what happened only, but the voices that shined through,” said Hennig. “Every story started with a narrator and
that is the voice of women. Some speak in long sentences, some in short sentences, and some have bad grammar. You can hear the voices that come through.” One story is of a woman who came from Scotland in 1906 and had to ride a horse, which she’d never done before, from Terrace to Hazelton, said Hennig. The woman was fine with riding but didn’t like the men who would wait for her to get on the horse so they could see her ankles or underclothing. Another story tells how midwives would show up with a gunny sack so children thought babies came in gunny sacks. Some names were changed if the story had bad connotations so people wouldn’t recognize their relatives or some stories were combined because they were similar. “If you’ve lived in Terrace for a long time, you can probably spot the pioneer,” said Hennig, adding the play isn’t just about Terrace but about the whole region. The play is also Hennig’s love letter to the region as she and her hubby prepare to move away. “This has been a region that has just supported and enriched my creative life and I’ve really wanted to do something which said ‘thank-you’ to this amazing community,” she said, noting that she was almost crying as she spoke. The cast is a combination of veteran actors and newcomers, an amazing group who were so supportive and willing to try anything, and a new producer, Viv Steele, who had many ideas and has “just been amazing,” said Hennig. For more details on Out of Time, see City Scene on page 15.
New conservation officer loves the great outdoors By MARGARET SPEIRS WITH THE arrival of a new officer, the conservation service here has a full staff after being short for about a year. Scott Senkiw (pronounced Sen-Q) is the fourth officer in the Terrace office and works the region that stretches from Bella Bella to Atlin, including Kitimat, and out to Kitwanga and Prince Rupert. He began Feb. 25, coming from Winnipeg, where he worked as a seasonal conservation officer while going to school. Senkiw goes out with a field coach mentor to meet the public and help protect resources. There’s a checklist of criteria he has to satisfy before he can go out on his own as a full-fledged officer. It can take anywhere from six months to 18 months to complete the proficiencies needed, he says.
“I’m really interested in fishing checks and talking to the resource users and getting to know them. There’s so much I can learn from them,” says Senkiw. He has a diploma in resource management and took an extra two years to get a Bachelors in natural resource protection and research. It includes wildlife management and population densities. He was drawn to conservation officer work thanks to his love of the outdoors: dirt biking, fishing and what the outdoors has to offer. “It’s a mighty fine big office out there,” he says, adding he’s often given that as his reason for going into conservation. He had never been up north until now and is loving the job and area. While enjoying and protecting the resources of the outdoors, he gets to work with people.
“I’m excited to meet a lot of people and hope everyone has a good summer,” he says. This time of year is a critical one as the temperature warms and bears come out of hibernation so residents are reminded it’s a critical time to be careful with their garbage. A resident reported a coyote up at the golf course several weeks ago, telling others to keep an eye on their dogs and cats. Conservation officers remind residents that coyotes are in the area and they’re opportunistic scavengers. The conservation office asks the public to call and report offences such as people dumping garbage on property that’s not the landfill, or even someone dumping the sewage out of an RV. The 24-hour number to call is the Report All Poachers and Polluters hotline at 1-877-952-7277 (RAPP).

Ireland losses energize fighters By JACKIE LIEUWEN THREE TERRACE brown belts are kicking with renewed vigour, aiming for another shot in the international kickboxing tournament in Ireland. Satisfied that they put up a good fight in this year’s Ireland tournament, the Terrace Shogun Dojo team has a new drive and higher standard to aim for. “I saw the calibre of the fighters down there, and I’m in range of becoming as good as them or better,” said Jenna Hoornenborg, one of three fighters who went to Ireland early this month. It has given a “drive and hunger to keep on training… enhance all of my techniques and make them better, cleaner, faster, stronger,” she said. Coach Rajan Sangha said that he did not expect the Terrace fighters to win at what is the largest martial arts tournament in Europe, but they went for the experience. “It was good to have every one of them lose… if you get in there and you can compete and you’re within range of winning, then you come home and it’s like ‘okay, I just need to work a little harder now, I need to train more,” Sangha said. Co-coach Amber Pipe added that they have been pushing the
athletes to train hard for the last year, but winning gold repeatedly was not motivating them. “Everywhere we take these guys they come back with golds… so they got to that point where they wouldn’t listen,” she said. “They hadn’t seen it… now they know what’s out there.” As they train with renewed fervour, they aim to compete in Ireland again next year. Hoornenborg, Adrian Babcock, and Robbie Cline, all competed in multiple categories at the Kickboxing Irish Open tournament, doing both point fighting and continuous. Robbie Cline was the first to fight, but was late and nearly disqualified due to crowds, inexperience, and lack of information about required gear. Coach Pipe said the centre judge was flexible since they were new, but the judges who determine the results wanted to disqualify him and then seemed to penalize him with a loss. “He lost to the judges because they wanted to disqualify him, [but] he clearly won,” Pipe said. “He kept control of the fight. His technique was clean. He threw and landed more kicks than his opponent.” Sangha added that his opponent from Great Britian was chasing Cline to try to hit him the whole fight.
“Robbie landed the side kick a couple times, landed the roundhouse… his movement was awesome… his opponent was just chasing him and he didn’t hit Robbie. He literally could not hit him,” Sangha said. “He may have looked more aggressive in the last minute [when both fighters were tired], but I don’t remember one clean punch where the guy landed a good clean shot.” In the point fighting, Cline fought two strong matches and kept the score close, but lost to two more experienced opponents. Hoornenborg, age 15, fought all her three fights on Saturday, March 5. She started with a continuous fight in the age 18 and up category with three competitors, where she fought full-contact for the first time (in a cage instead of a ring and with no regulation on the strength of hits). She placed third of three but earned silver by default after the second place fighter did not show up for her medal. Though she lost her fight, Hoornenborg feels good about it, having rivalled a multi-champion from Wales and lost by split decision (with one judge saying she won, two saying it was her competitor). “It was scary. She was bigger, she was intimidating… I’ve never fought somebody who actually

She took a side kick to her face right off the bell, but it served to wake her up and engage her in the fight, she said. “I felt in control [of my game] most of the fight. Even when she was coming at me… I didn’t turtle or cower away. I moved, tried to
get out of the way and defend… I felt good about it. I’ve never done it before so I wasn’t expecting to do as good as I did,” said Hoornenborg. “I want to do more full contact. It was brutal, but I could take it, so now I will train harder for it…”

Atoms dominate Richmond tournament By JACKIE LIEUWEN
JASON BENNETT PHOTO
KERMODE KINSMEN Atoms minor hockey team won the trophy in Richmond.
TERRACE KERMODE Kinsman Atoms held up a shiny new trophy from Richmond after they dominated a four-day, tier two tournament there on March 12-15. “They really came out flying… [played to the] best of their ability,” said coach Lenny Davis, crediting teamwork for the strong victories. “It wasn’t a lot of individual goal scoring, everybody played within the system… they came together as a team very well.” Terrace typically competes in tier three, but Davis said he wanted to challenge the team with this tier two tournament. They played and won all six games in Richmond, dominating with four shut-outs. They launched into the round robin with a 14-0 win against Juan de Fuca from Vancouver Island. Next they beat Portland Oregon 11-0, Abbotsford 6-0, and Cowichan Valley 6-1. The semifinal was a closer game, where they won 4-3 against Vancouver Thunderbirds. In finals, they faced off against Abbotsford, playing how coach
Davis described as perfect and shutting out the team 8-0. “We pushed these kids to be perfect, and in the end they were,” said Davis. “I gave them their final speech and away they went. They performed their hearts out.” “The defensive side of our game is not always the strongest point, but we went out and we made sure that no one could score against us… We played well in our own end, all the way down,” he said, adding that they were also strong offensively, keeping the puck in the opposing end. “The whole team played well,” he said. But the other great thing that stood out was the team’s respectfulness and maturity. “My greatest moment at the Richmond tournament was hearing from other coaches, not how good the team was but how well they all got along and how much class they exhibited,” said Davis. He added that the Abbotsford coach appreciated how the Terrace Atoms even took off a glove to shake hands after the game. “We just don’t see that anymore,” that coach told Davis.

After that she switched into point fighting, where she fought in two weight classes and lost both by a few points. “They were definitely better [competitors]. You could tell they had more experience, just by the different techniques they used. They were more advanced,” Hoornenborg said. Adrian Babcock had a similar experience in point fighting, putting up a strong fight but losing by two points in both matches. He also fought two continuous matches. The first was a very even fight, resulting in a tight loss against a British competitor. Sangha and Pipe said the judges’ decision was contestable. “But Adrian handled it really well… He was not on the top, but [was] still behaving like a champion,” Pipe said. Babcock’s second fight was in a larger weight class, and he was dominated by a much more advanced fighter from Italy. “He came out of that saying, ‘okay, I got more work to do,’” Pipe said, adding that all the Ireland competitors were eager to train the day after they got back to Terrace. Pipe said the other benefit of the tournament was a point fighting seminar, taught by the USA All Stars and pro fighter Raymond Daniels, which gave the coaches fresh knowledge for their Shogun dojo training. Next for the competitors is a Western Open tournament in Edmonton April 9, and an international Mexico tournament on Sept. 2-3.

Atoms noticed for teamwork and respect The Kermode Kinsmen Atoms team is made up of the 17 top players age 9-10 in Terrace, who were selected to form a separate team this year by Davis, and competed in the higher-level Peewee league all season. Davis said he created the team because he wanted to intentionally develop these players. He also believes it helps the other Atom team, removing the dominant players and thus challenging the others to push themselves to be
O
better players on their teams. The Kermode Kinsmen did well in Peewees and won several tournaments in Atom and Peewee. “Their progress from the beginning of the season to this tournament was unbelievable,” Davis said, adding that they focused a lot on team building during the season. “We have not only built a great team, but there are some friendships on this team that will last forever. A lot of our success
ne grey day last month the dog and I were searching back channels of Shames Slough hoping to spot moose. The channels were dry in that they weren’t carrying river water, but wet in that they were filled with snow. After two hours, covered in sweat and tired from tramping through snow not deep enough to warrant snow shoes but deep enough to require more exertion than normal from each step, I made my way to the logjam at the foot of Finlay’s Reach. Seated comfortably on the trunk of a cottonwood large enough in diameter to make a decent lunch table, I spread out the contents of my lunch box, poured a cup of tea, threw enough dog treats on the rocky beach to give me brief respite from her cold nose and pleading eyes, and reflected on what I’d seen that morning as I chewed on gypsy sausage and aged cheddar cheese and sipped jasmine tea. We’d seen little moose spoor, and that was old, probably from last fall. As I thought about what factors may have led to the fact that we’d seen less moose sign that morning than we had in the past, I heard the distant whine of an engine. At first, I thought it must be a particularly loud truck on the highway, but that didn’t make sense, because, even in the winter when the landscape is most acoustically reflective, you
was due to the fact that this team of strangers became really good friends that were willing to push each other and sacrifice what was needed to win.” The Atoms would not have beat the teams in Richmond at the beginning of the year, Davis said, adding that if he had known they would dominate so clearly, he would have put them in tier one. “I was confident that we’d win,” he said of the tournament.
“I wasn’t expecting the absolute dominance that we had.” Fundraising coordinator and hockey dad Alex Pietralla said the tournament was mostly to challenge the team. “It’s about exposing the kids to a different level, and giving them — through the experience of travel and of being together — giving them the experience of what team play and being together is all about,” said Pietralla. “When you start playing teams from the

They’re constantly working hard. They’re playing for and with each other… They are a great team together.”
watching a guide at work. Talk about buying a pig in a poke, I thought. If this had been July, that riffle would be a fine place to intercept a travelling steelhead, and perhaps the guide had done that, but in February the chance of catching one in that spot was, to be really generous, exceedingly remote. So, here were a couple of sports paying anywhere from $600 to a $1000 a day to run around on the cold river at a time when they might catch a Dolly Varden if they were lucky. If their guide knew where to find steelhead on the Skeena in the dead of winter he might actually get his sports into a couple of fish if he worked hard at it for a week, but even this is not guaranteed. Almost a month later I picked up my friend Bob Clay at YXT. He’d just returned from Scotland where he was given an opportunity to fish springers on the best salmon water on the British Isles gratis. Normally such an opportunity would cost over a thousand British pounds per day, a pound is worth two bucks, remember. Bob landed a pair of fish over the week. His hosts thought this extraordinarily fine angling. So, maybe, if we generously assume a lot of expertise on the part of the guide, by international standards, a $1000 a day for a week for a middling chance to hook a steelhead or two is not out of line after all.
