Fort Mac fire impacts Campbell Riverites

Campbell River’s water loses out to Hope in water tasting competition: Pg. 3

JOCELYN DOLL CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The entire population of the city of Fort McMurray has been evacuated due to threat from a forest fire that has, according to the local press, completely consumed at least one suburb in the south end of the city. The fire, however, impacts much of the rest of the country, including Campbell River where former residents or family members now working in Fort McMurray have had their lives disrupted. Many are concerned about their well being. Ian Husband, who spent most of his life in Campbell River, was one of the 80,000 people who slowly made their way out of the city on Tuesday. “It was ominous,” he told Gord Kurbis of CTV Vancouver Island. “The whole sky went dark.” Husband said that the evacuation was somewhat chaotic. “At one point we were unable to go south because of the fire so that forced everybody out north, and all of the evacuation happened that day and it is kind of hard to get that many people out on a two lane road, so that was part of the problem,” he said. Kelly Thomas moved back to Campbell River from Fort McMur-

The City of Campbell River put its award-winning drinking water to the test this week. The city went headto-head against 13 other municipalities in a quest to lay claim to the best tap water in B.C. Jennifer Peters, the city’s utilities manager, said the city was confident going in to the competition. “We entered because we know we have great water,” Peters said. “I do know the results were so close. Everyone was really close in quality. They’d never seen it so tight.” But after nearly an hour and a half of taste testing, the District of Hope was proclaimed the winner of the third annual Best of the Best Tap Water Taste Test. The event was hosted by the BC Water and Waste Association in Whistler as part of BC Water Week.

MIKE CRANE PHOTOGRAPHY/SPECIAL TO THE MIRROR

Judges Samantha Rahn, left, and Ed McCormick, far right, sample water and discuss the importance of water systems in B.C. with BC Water and Waste Association CEO, Tanja McQueen.

Hope, which gets its water from an aquifer, was the clear winner, with runner up nods going to Squamish and Port Alberni. Results beyond that were not tracked. Despite not placing, Peters said Campbell Riverites can still be proud of their drinking water. “We have great water here,” Peters said. “We don’t treat it or filter it because it’s fabulous at the source.” The city’s drinking water comes from

John Hart Lake. It then passes through the BC Hydro penstocks at the generating station and from there the water goes through the city’s ultra violet disinfection facility before travelling through the water pipes and ending up in our taps. “The lake system and the reservoir system provides fabulous water,” Peters said. “It’s a stable system.” And that hasn’t gone unrecognized. In 2007, the city took fourth

place – and an honourable mention – in the Berkeley Springs International Water Tasting competition which pits roughly 14 countries from around the world against each other. It’s been a feather in the city’s cap ever since. But at a provincial level, the city didn’t fare as well, matched up against the best of the best drinking water providers from both B.C. and the Yukon. A panel of “aqualiers” or water taste professionals, judged water samples based on appearance, aroma, taste, feel, aftertaste and overall impression. Hope was crowned the winner for its hard mineral texture, absence of aroma and no lingering aftertaste. The small community that lies at the foot of the Coquihalla Highway and to the east of the Lower Mainland, took the title away from Chilliwack, which did not return to the competition to defend its title.

Fire: Reverberations locally

Continued from Pg. 1

Her son relayed stories to her of fire beside the highway as he exited the city. People were driving on the boulevards, hitting cars and continuing on because they were in such a hurry to leave. He said there was mass panic. He only had threequarters of a tank of gas and turned the engine off when traffic was at a stand still to preserve it. Thomas is just happy that everyone is out safe. “I’m sick for all the firefighters though,” she said. “It must be pretty hairy up there now.” Thomas and her husband moved to Fort McMurray after the Elk Falls mill closed. They lived there for seven years. Thomas said there

were a lot of good people there and that her children love living there. “It’s going to be so hard for so many people,” she said. “We have no idea.” Kim Richardson also used to live in Fort McMurray. She and a

friend are going to collect donations to aid the families who have been displaced by the fire. The plans aren’t set in stone yet, but Richardson said they are considering driving the donations up themselves.

Things are going well in terms of transitioning students to their new schools once Discovery Passage and Oyster River Elementary schools close after this school year, Assistant Superintendent Nevenka Fair told the School District 72 (SD72) Board of Education at their last public meeting. Transition Committee meetings have been happening for both the Discovery Passage/ Ripple Rock and Oyster River/Ocean Grove transitions, involving administrators, staff and Parent Advisory Committee (PAC) members, and Fair says the discussions have been very productive. “When the kids leave on the last day, we don’t want them to leave sad. We want them to leave hopeful,” Fair told the board, and while certain closure activities need to happenl, the committees are finding ways of making them happen in an order and with a tone that makes them celebratory, rather than mournful. Like the pair of parents – one from Discovery Passage and one from Ripple Rock – who came up with an idea to lower the flag at Discovery Passage on the Thursday before the end of the last school week, Fair told the board, and bus the students over to Ripple Rock on the Friday to raise it at their new school as a celebration of what’s to come. “I think everyone is

feeling like we’re listening, and everyone is listening to each other,” Fair said. “The feedback from all the groups has felt hopeful.” Superintendent Tom Longridge, who is heading up the Oyster River/ Ocean Grove committee, agrees, adding he has been particularly impressed with how welcoming the parents of the receiving schools were and how open everyone seems to be with ideas being generated by all sides. One of Longridge’s favourite ideas generated by the Oyster River/Ocean Grove Transition Committee so far, he told the board, involves the students themselves physically helping in the move. “The idea is that some of the students actually physically bring things that matter to them from Oyster River to Ocean Grove so that they are a physical part of the transition,” Longridge said. Trustee John Kerr responded to Fair and Longridge’s report on the activities of the Transition Committees by saying that when he voted to close the schools, “it was a pretty heart-wrenching decision to have to make, but in hearing what

you’ve been saying in the last two meetings about the transition stuff, well, it’s kind of alleviating a lot of the concerns that I had about amalgamating the schools.” Both he and Trustee Richard Franklin also gave kudos to senior administration for their “hands-on” approach. “When I was school principal and was involved in two school closures,” Franklin said, “the superintendent and assistant superintendent were nowhere to be seen, so one of the things I appreciate in [Longridge and Fair] is their hands-on approach. They are out there in the schools, meeting with the parents and the teachers and that is such a refreshing change from why I’m used to.” Heidi Cuff, who sits on the Discovery Passage/Ripple Rock committee as a member of Discovery Passage PAC, agrees with Longridge and Fair about the welcoming nature of the receiving school, but she still has concerns about some aspects of the move. “The Staff and PAC from Ripple Rock have been immensely supportive and encouraging,” Cuff says. “We are

all united in making this transition as smooth and positive an experience as possible for all of the students involved. “The dominant issue now, however, is lack of emergency preparedness,” Cuff continues. “With Discovery Passage – the current emergency muster station for the neighbourhood – closing its doors in 60 days, this leaves our entire neighbourhood at risk. In the event that the bridge washes out, most Discovery Passage students could be stranded at Ripple Rock for days. At the moment, we are all unprepared for this scenario and it is one that needs to be addressed quickly to put everyone’s mind at ease.” SD72, for its part, says that it’s up to the Strathcona Regional District (SRD) Emergency Program to identify reception centres, and although there was never an official agreement in place that designated Discovery Passage School as that location, it will remain available for that purpose should the SRD require it – until such time that the board decides to sell or lease Discovery Passage, should they decide to do so at some point in the future.

Going green

Above, Luisa Richardson, Waste Reduction Educator with Comox Strathcona Waste Management, shows a class at École Mer-et-Montagne a ‘garbage pizza’ which displays the main proportions of waste streams going to the landfill. Richardson spent four days at the school conducting workshops with students from Kindergarten to Grade 7. The school’s Green Comnitee organized a free-waste lunch box contest for Earth Day and the winning class only had three waste items among 18 students. Below, École Mer-et-Montagne students, from left, Moaye Kouadio, Kade Simmons and Emmitt Martell make art out of items found in nature during workshops in celebration of Earth Week.

Treat mom to a warm stack of pancakes on Mother’s Day. The Willow Point Lions Club is hosting its annual Mother’s Day pancake breakfast this Sunday from 8 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. at the Willow Point Hall. The Lions will be serving all-you-can eat pancakes, scrambled eggs, and sausage. The smorgasbord is free for moms and $5 for everyone else to help cover the costs.

Strathcona Gardens employees, regional district come to terms on new agreement KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Employees at Strathcona Gardens will see a wage increase every year for five years, based on a new collective agreement with the Strathcona Regional District. The five year agreement, which contains a two per cent wage increase each year, was signed recently by the regional district and the

United Steel Workers Union which represents Strathcona Gardens employees. The agreement was reached after a few months of negotiations and provides improvements to benefits, vacation scheduling practices and a revised sick leave plan and grievance process. “The new contract provides modest improvements to health

benefits and also clarification around sick leave and short term disability benefits,” said Yves Bienvenu, facilities manager of Strathcona Gardens. Rick Wangler, first vice-president of Union Steel Workers Local 1-1937, said the agreement covers approximately 75 full time and part time unionized

employees. He said in addition to the two per cent wage increase, the agreement also includes “some specific job wage rate adjustments and adjustments to other premiums such as clothing and footwear allowance.” Wangler said the union is satisfied with the new contract, which

addresses concerns the union had about leaves of absence. “The main issues of concern that were dealt with were around sick time and short and long

term disability which were resolved to the parties’ satisfaction,” Wangler said. The regional district expressed the same sentiments.

No matter how you feel about Fort Mac... As everyone who hasn’t been in a cave without an Internet connection for the past few days knows, Fort McMurray, Alta. is on fire. There seem to be two distinct and contrasting views on Fort McMurray, in general. Some see the city as a valuable economic driver of our society, providing good paying trades jobs to many people from all over this land, enabling those people to feed and clothe their families using their hard work and sacrifice, living uncomfortably and going without seeing their loved ones for weeks at a time so those loved ones can live lives of comfort. Others see it as full of overpaid people blowing their money on big, lifted trucks and frivolous superficiality while they pollute the only world we have by sucking its natural resources out of the ground to be burnt. But no matter what your thoughts on

Talking about mental health doesn’t need to be a whispered conversation. This week, the Canadian Mental Health Association is asking people to get loud. It’s Mental Health Week (May 2-8), and while we are sure to know people who suffer from mental illness, there are many more whom we don’t know who are suffering in silence. They may be unwilling to ask for help. They may believe that others won’t care. They may not know that what they’re going through is out of the ordinary. They may not know that their mental health can get better. That’s why it’s important to get loud. Not talking is easier than talking. Not listening is easier than listening. But people who are depressed need to find the strength to speak up loudly enough that others We say: Mental listen. Their friends Health Week is a will and family members good time to talk need to ask, ‘How are you doing?’ And even if the out in the open answer is ‘fine,’ that needs to be the beginning of the conversation, not the end. If we are willing and able to talk about mental health, then we can become more familiar with the resources, services and care that is available. There are physicians, psychiatrists, addictions counsellors and crisis line operators, for example, who can help, but any of us can have a role in outreach, doing what we can to ensure those we care about seek the help they need. Those are some of the most important messages in the Canadian Mental Health Association’s ‘Get Loud’ campaign. Organizers also want people to spread the message in workplaces, in the community and across social media platforms and ask federal and provincial politicians for further funding for mental health programs and services. The campaign consists of a simple concept that is harder than it sounds. It’s easy to talk about things that don’t matter; we do that every day. It’s hard to talk about something that matters so much. But when it comes to mental health in our community, we might have to get loud before we can get well. -Black Press

day in which current and past firefighters can be thanked for their contributions.” So let me just take a moment, as part of my reaction to what’s happening in Northern Alberta – and in our own province, as well, by the way – to thank those who do what they do to keep us safe. Thank-you to those who run toward danger when instinct is to run away. Thank-you to those who ask, “what can I do to help?” when it’s easier to turn aside and ignore something. And thank-you to those who, no matter how they feel about Fort McMurray as a place and what they do there, set those thoughts aside and realize that these are people. Instead of laughing or mocking, share the link to redcross.ca or the fact that you can donate $5 to the cause just by texting REDCROSS to 30333 and keep your thoughts on the place to yourself for a bit.

From left, Tricia Sinclair, Clinical Coordinator of the Campbell River Hospital’s Emergency Department, Carly Pisterzi of the Hospital Foundation, and Susie Shelswell, Clinical Coordinator-Maternity Department, urge Campbell Riverites to scoop up tickets for the Hospital Foundation lottery before they’re all gone.

Hospital Foundation lottery tickets going fast Tickets for the Campbell River Hospital Foundation’s lottery are going fast and those who would still like a ticket are urged to scoop one up quickly. With one month of successful ticket sales nearly complete, the Hospital Foundation is pleased with the response so far for this year’s Because You Care, Lottery. Carly Pisterzi, the Hospital Foundation’s event and communications director, says people from across B.C. have stepped up to support health care in Campbell River. “We have seen a remarkable rise in early support from various parts of the province, especially from the Mainland,” Pisterzi says. With only 2,500 total tickets, Campbell Riverites are encouraged to buy as soon as possible to avoid disappointment and to show their support.

Funds from this year’s lottery will be used to purchase two pieces of life saving equipment. The first is a Transport Incubator which will be used by the Campbell River Hospital’s Maternity Department to safely transport newborn babies needing care in other hospitals. The second is a Portable Ultrasound Unit which assists the Emergency Department to evaluate and treat patients quickly and effectively. About the Because You Care Lottery The grand prize for the lottery is an enticing $10,000 cash and a $10,000 Travel Voucher. The second prize is an all-inclusive trip to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico and the third prize is a return trip for two to

any scheduled West Jet destination. Tickets are still available until June 9 and can be purchased online and with various retailers. Tickets are $40 each or $100 for three. More details are available on the Hospital Foundation’s website at, www.crhospitalfoundation.ca. Winners will be drawn on June 10 at 12 p.m. About the Campbell River Hospital Foundation The Campbell River Hospital Foundation is a registered charity dedicated to raising funds to support Campbell River Hospital and Yucalta Lodge through equipment purchase, staff education and capital projects that help enhance the service and treatment of patients and residents.

Just how that money will be distributed has been left up to city staff for guidance. In a recent report to council, Myriah Foort, the city’s finance manager, said because of an extensive need in the community for social funding, the guidelines created by staff will ensure that any funds awarded provide the most impact and direct benefit to the community. “The recommendation is that any grant monies provided by the city are to be used for incremental, or new initiatives by the requesting organization,” Foort said. “Any programs that are being proposed

ing at expanding the program. Last year alone, the city gave out grants to 15 community groups, totalling $552,264 – an increase of more than $25,000 over what was given out in 2014 to 17 groups. The committee last year received grant requests totalling $609,177 which exceeded the city’s grant-in-aid budget by $5,428. The new social fund is expected to help fill in the gap. It’s a move not typically done by municipal governments but one that council saw fit for community organizations that are struggling with significant reductions, or in some cases, complete elimination of gaming funds from the province. “While direct funding of social programs is typically not the responsibility of local governments, the City of Campbell River has set aside some funds to assist local organizations that are increasingly looking to local government as other funding opportunities become more scarce,” Foort said. City staff is now expected to go back and draft an official policy on the distribution of the grant funding based on the principles provided to council. City council will have the final say in the coming weeks on the policy.

Quadra Sound just wants to rock MIKE DAVIES

CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

rothers Nick and John Fascione (Fash-ee-ohnee), along with their friend Clayton Howe, make up three-piece local band Quadra Sound, and they’re making a push for Campbell River to stand up and take notice as they try to revive what they say is missing in the Campbell River music scene: some good ol’ Rock and Roll. Okay, so why should we care what you think, Quadra Sound? Who are you, anyway? “I guess you could say we’re just an honest rock band,” Nick says with an unassuming shrug. “Coming from the heart and all that.” While the band’s core influences come from classic rock (the Beatles come up a lot during the conversation), and you can definitely hear – and feel – that influence underpinning their sound and attitude, all music is welcome in their world. We’re lounging in the small entryway of the Fascione’s house, a few bottles of water on the small end table, a couple of acoustic guitars resting lightly against the wall, John sitting on a cajon and the rest of us on folding chairs – and there’s a lot of long flowing hair draped over shoulders.

There’s a casual, nofrills kind of vibe coming from these guys. There’s no pomp. No pretentiousness. They say they’re about to head into studio to record their first album, but that’s not entirely accurate, because they’ve already technically got two albums under their belt. Fertility & Youth and Digging II Deep are their first two efforts, and while the songs on those albums are solid, musically, even the band admits they left something to be desired in terms of sound quality. “We’d been recording songs for years at home, with Nick slaving away behind the computer trying to mix,” John says, pausing to think of how to say it nicely, “and not having any experience,” he finishes, smiling at his brother, “so it was time to go into the studio and do something professionally.” There’s no timeline on that release, but they do have a timeline on their first tour. Okay, “tour” is maybe the wrong word, but they will be traveling to a few gigs around the Island this summer, including shows in Victoria and the Comox Valley. What they really hope to do, however, is be a part of getting rock and roll back into the music scene here in Campbell River.

“It’s almost like the scene is stuck,” John says. “Dancy-stuff came onto the scene, and it unfortunately just kind of took over and stayed and left bands in the back a little bit.” “Music changes, and that’s part of what makes it great,” Nick says. “It’s awesome that it goes through eras and stages and blends and pulls influences from other places. And I’ll even admit I like some of the electronic stuff … It’s just that people are just so used to seeing a DJ and being surrounded by a non-stop beat they can dance to, I think they maybe don’t realize that you can dance to rock and roll, too.” Well, they’ll get their chance to show that on May 21, when Quadra Sound joins another popular local band, The Bentwood Boyz, at the Voodoo Lounge for “Rockin For a Reason,” a fundraising effort for Team Willow. Admission is by donation, and all proceeds will go to the family of one brave little girl in our community fighting brain cancer. “We just hope a few people come see us live, have a good time, and maybe people will realize again that live rock isn’t dead,” Nick says, “and you can come along to celebrate music and support a great

cause, too.” And for those who still want the electronic, more traditionally “dance-y” type music, there will be DJs spinning tunes after the rock sets are done. In terms of the future, Quadra Sound just wants to just keep rockin’. “All we can do is just play as much as we can, wherever we can, as good as we can,” Nick says. “There’s a lot of sounds for people to choose from now. I think it’ll be interesting to see what the sound is that comes out of our generation, because, somewhere, deep down,

I believe there are a lot of kids like us, who love the old-school stuff, but want to blend it with other stuff and make a new sound but still have it be rock – and want to play it live. “And maybe we’ll all come out of the shadows and hit the world over the head with it at the same time like what happened in the 90s in Seattle. “Who knows, right?”

$ The Gardeners Green Folk Club is excited to have Jocelyn Pettit back playing her fiddle as the next show in their House Councert Series.

Jocelyn Pettit in Merville G ardeners Green Folk Club in Merville is pleased to present the next in their House Concert Series, an evening with Jocelyn Pettit and her band tomorrow night (May 7) at 7 p.m. Some will have seen Pettit at Gardeners Green a couple of years ago, and know what a warm and outstanding performance she gives, which is why organizers say they are so excited to have her back. She has just released a new album, and will be bringing her four-piece band along, as well, consisting of her mother Siew on keyboards, her dad Joel on bodhran,

guitarist Colm MacCarthaigh, and whistle player Erik Musseau. Pettit is fiddler extraordinaire, as well as providing vocals and step dancing. Together they play engaging and uplifting original and traditional music inspired by the Canadian and Celtic cultures of Cape Breton, Quebec, Ireland, Scotland, Brittany and Galicia. With a love of travelling and sharing the joy of music, Pettit has performed with grace and passion on stages across Canada, the U.S., Scotland, France and Malaysia. She performed at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics to a

packed BC Place Stadium for the Victory Medals Ceremony and has shared the stage with Scottish legends The Battlefield Band and Irish supergroup The Chieftains as part of their 50th anniversary world tour. Jocelyn has delighted audiences everywhere she goes, and Gardeners Green is sure to be no exception. Tickets must be purchased in advance and are $20, which includes hot drinks and a fingerfood buffet. All proceeds go directly to the performers.

New exhibitions showcase abstract works of female artists from the Prairies LINDSAY CHUNG CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

ampbell River Art Gallery curator Julia Prudhomme spent a lot of time talking to Prairie-based artists Amalie Atkins and Kiarra Albina to prepare for their exhibitions at the gallery, which opened last week. Prudhomme had admired both women’s work before but learned a lot more about them as they worked together over many months to come up with the best way to display their works. The result is two solo exhibitions that are very different but also complement each other well. Prudhomme describes them as visual storytelling and both artists bring elements of the abstract to their work, inviting the viewer to interpret the work. Atkins is a multidisciplinary artist who lives and works in Saskatoon. The Braid Harvesters, which is being shown in the main gallery, is one fragment of a larger video installation called We live on the edge of disaster and image we are in a musical. The exhibition features an immersive fort in which the viewer is invited to enter to view a film. Prudhomme is happy to be able to bring Atkins’ work to Campbell River. “I’ve always been attracted to her work; my background’s in video installation as well,” she said. “It has just such an immediate aesthetic quality to it that is really dreamlike and beautiful, but I’m also really fascinated by female artists who are making sort of abstract feminist pieces. “She only uses female characters and it’s very RDAY 0PM SATU :3 OPEN :30AM - 4 9

LINDSAY CHUNG/CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Campbell River Art Gallery curator Julia Prudhomme watches the video as part of the new exhibition at the gallery called The Braid Harvesters.

much rooted in this sort of DIY process where she makes all the costumes and all the props and she puts together the forts. “She was a lovely person to work with too. It’s nice to be able to be inspired by someone and be excited to present it to the community, that’s also really exciting.” With this exhibition, Prudhomme also wanted to bring a video installation into the community. “We do have drawings in the other room, but I thought this was a nice way to show a video because it’s so insular; it’s really soft and intimate and you need to go in and spend time with this film,” she said. “It’s very meditative too … She shoots all of her film on 16mm; that’s why it looks kind of grainy. She does some of them where there are actual 16mm projectors installed but this was transferred onto digital and we’re using the pro-

jector for that. “That also gives it a nostalgic quality; it’s kind of grainy and strange.” Along with the video, the exhibition also features two photographs, moments taken from the film. For her exhibition, Amulet, Albina, who lives in Calgary, created all new works on paper. Her work is being shown in the discovery gallery. “She’s quite a renowned animator so there’s sort of an illustration quality to her drawing,” said Prudhomme. “She was great to work with. She’s quite an upand-coming artist in her own right and she just had a child so she’s consumed about that. We’d often be talking and she’d be like ‘I only have time to make these at night now’ so this is where the work came from, working at night. Her work is often very magical and really plays with that darkness and sweetness, which you

can kind of get.” Prudhomme believes that Amulet is Albina’s most figurative work. Although her drawings can be abstract, there are also a lot of portraits in this exhibition. Prudhomme says the artist was really interested in the title “amulet” because an amulet is an object that one person gives to another person and these drawings represent the intimate moments when you are spending time with friends or family. “I was interested in her work mostly because of her method of working, I think that’s what I’m mostly drawn to, how these people are creating their artistic practice,” she said. “Both her and Amalie, they work a lot but they also sort of balance their home life and their working life and I think from that, they really do pull a lot from their personal lives and it comes through in the way that the work is made. Kiarra, her drawings are

just so impeccably beautiful, but they’re also so sad, and the magical totally comes through for me.” The Braid Harvesters and Amulet exhibitions opened April 28 and run until June 2. These exhibitions at the Campbell River Art Gallery were featured last week in Canadian Art Magazine as “Must-Sees For This Week.” The Campbell River Art Gallery will present a mid-exhibition reception and curator talk May 19 at 6:30 p.m. This month, the art gallery is also offering three new classes directly inspired by the exhibitions. They include a writing workshop with Annette Yourk, an introduction to drawing class with Catherine Martha Holmes and a needle felting course with Pam Dobbs. The classes are all open to beginners and to non-members. For information, visit crartgallery.ca.

BOOMERS & Beyond Is it time to downsize? How will you know? Then What? Submitted by Home 2 Home Downsizing & Relocation Inc.

Is it time to downsize? How will you know? Then what? First your children moved out and when they did you may have converted those extra bedrooms into an exercise room, a craft room, the ultimate den or the perfect guest room. Now those unused rooms may be daily reminders that you are living in a home that is far too large for your current lifestyle and daily needs. For many the thought of cleaning a multi-level, three or four bedroom home with two-anda-half bathrooms can be overwhelm-

ing and exhausting. Is this how you pictured your retirement? Whether you’re moving from a house to a condo or you’re trading in a three-bedroom condo for a one-bedroom apartment in a retirement community, you will need to bid “adieu” to some of your belongings. Overwhelmed by the thought of tackling such a job? Carol Anne, Susan and Theresa of Home 2 Home Downsizing say “It’s not as complicated as it seems and it could take you less time than you think if you organize the job ahead”. Here are a few

tips to help you get started in the right direction: • Make a “wish” list of all the items you love and must have with you – these could be large or small pieces of furniture, art, ornaments, or other items that represent fond memories. • Start thinning out your belongings NOW or at least 3 months before your move. Go through seasonal clothing, filing cabinets, photos and your childrens’ stored possessions (give them a time limit to claim items of importance). • See if you can get a floor plan for

your new home with measurements. Compare the rooms you are moving into to the rooms you have now...decide what will fit and what won’t. • Reduce areas that do not have sentimental value. The kitchen is a good example. How many mixing bowls do you need? What about garden tools and

equipment in the garage? • Don’t be too hasty – Can you recycle, sell or donate to a charity instead of tossing in the garbage? Can some of these things be of value to family or friends? Purchase some sticky coloured dots (at Staples or Monks) or large bins to organize items as Keep,

Sandowne students take top prizes at Destination Imagination provincials MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

group of 10 students from Sandowne Elementary have returned from the provincial Destination Imagination championships in Surrey with championship medals, earning them an invitation to the global championships in Knoxville, Tennessee. What the heck does that even mean? What’s Destination Imagination?” “What it is,” says Rod Beavis, one of the two teachers who organized the school’s teams, “is you get these kids together and you present them with creative challenges they’ve got to solve as a team.” Sound simple enough, right? Well, those challenges range from engineering something that can hold as much weight as possible using specific materials that don’t have much strength

Ten Sandowne students brought home medals from the provincial Destination Imagination competition in Surrey recently thanks to their innovation and communication skills.

points. “It’s about creative problem solving and teamwork,” Beavis says. “It’s about collaboration and communication,” he adds, recounting the story of a team who won their category without even completing their challenge, because of the way they worked

together while they made their attempt. Beavis took a team to regionals last year, and this year he thought it would be neat to get another teacher on board to form a team, as well. So in stepped Chris Lewis. “I just thought it would be fun,” he says

with a laugh. And fun it was, though it took a lot of time and effort, as well. “My team was at it every day on every break and after school for a solid two weeks,” he says. “But the reward of their faces – just the energy and enthusiasm that the kids got out of it, was more than worth all that time we put in.” Lewis’ team’s challenge was to create a structure that could bear weight, could double as a musical instrument, and didn’t weigh more than a Frisbee. Then they had to somehow write a story that had this contraption in it. And they did exactly that, and brought it along with them to the contest. The team challenge Beavis’ team chose this year was to write a “mystery play,” he says, where they had to write an perform a play that had three possible suspects and one investigator, and they didn’t get

Local celebration set for International Museum Day Every year since 1977 the International Council of Museums has coordinated events around the world to celebrate International Museum Day on May 18. The objective of these celebrations is to raise awareness of the fact that, “Museums are an

important means of cultural exchange, enrichment of cultures and development of mutual understanding, cooperation and peace among people.” The Museum at Campbell River saw almost 28,000 visitors in 2015, which shows just how

relevant it remains to the community. “Museums today are not just about collecting artifacts. We use the term ‘living history’ at the Museum at Campbell River to stress the importance of keeping the stories of the past alive and meaningful for today”

Garden WEEKLY

How to graft a favourite plant Plants can be propagated in various ways, including grafting. Grafting involves slicing off a piece from one plant and connecting it to another to create a new plant. Grafting can be an interesting hobby, and even novice gardeners can become skilled at grafting. Grafting is actually botanical surgery. The grafted parts eventually grow together to form a single grafted plant, which will produce leaves, a stem,

flowers or fruit on top known as a scion. The bottom part of the graft is known as the rootstock. Production of grafted plants requires time, and grafting involves more than just propagating plants from seeds or cuttings. But the benefits of grafting include the propensity for grafted plants to flower or bear fruit more quickly than traditional plants. Grafting also can help

a plant thrive, by selecting a root system adapted to a particular climate. Grafting is particularly advantageous when one wants to produce a plant that is an exact duplicate of the parent plant. Planting from seeds can produce inconsistent results. If grafting seems like something you want to try, consider the following tips. • Seek help from experienced grafters. Many grafters work at nurseries or in the research field. If they're too busy to work with you, you can likely find a video online that can show you the proper techniques. • Invest in a quality, sharp knife. According to horticulture expert and teacher Dr. Malcolm Manners,

grafting requires very sharp cuts. The knife needs to be razor sharp for it to be effective. Dull knives and cuts can sabotage your grafting efforts. • Do test cuts first. Before you decide to work on a plant, select a trial stem to practice on. This can give you a better feel for making smooth, precise cuts. • Purchase highquality rootstock plants. The rootstock plant is the plant that provides a root system and base. Rootstock is bred to have certain qualities, whether it's to put more plant energy into producing

flowers or fruit or to be more durable. • Choose compatible plants. Not every scion can be grafted on every rootstock. You likely will need a related species or genus for success. Speak with a horticulturist if you need assistance. • Work quickly so that grafts do not dry out. As you become more experienced, this will be easier to do. Grafting is a technique that can produce true plants and may help generate new but similar species. Plant lovers may want to give it a try and see if grafting is for them.

Medically Trained, Naturally Focused: Naturopathic Medicine Week May 9-15th 2016 Written by Dr. Ingrid Pincott N.D.

I have just returned from the 60th Anniversary of the Northwest Naturopathic Physicians Association Convention: Food as Medicine. Here are some pearls from “long living” people in the Blue Zones (areas where people are 100 years or older) around the world. 1. Fiber: 50-100 grams of non grain fiber a day prevents bowel diseases including colon cancer and diverticular disease. Average North American gets 12 grams of fiber. 2. Hypertension is a potassium and magnesium deficiency. We need 6-10grams of potassium per day. The best food source being avocados and not bananas! 3. 20 foods to help you live past 100 Quinoa (red/dark), purple sweet potatoes, nuts (almonds, walnuts, pumpkin seeds and flaxseeds), black lentils and beans, broccoli, fruit(peaches, nectarines, apricots), pomegranite seeds (these freeze well!), rice (black or dark purple), greens (dandelion, purple and red kale and swiss chard), carrots (did you know that the original carrot was purple?), mushrooms (always cooked), onions (red or deep yellow), berries (blackberries, acai), red wine, fermented foods such as kefir and Natto which is high in Mk7vitamin K. 4. Pressure Cooking is the best way to cook for preserving the most nutrients in foods. (Use aluminum free pots always!) 5. Chanchal Cabrera, MSc in herbal medicine, runs Innisfree Farm in Courtenay reminded us about the importance of bitters as digestive aids. Some simple ones include chamomile tea, lavender, basil, leafy greens, cilantro, kale, tumeric and parsley. 6. Dr. Pamela Sky Jeanne recommends simple cleansing every 7 days where you eat only vegetables for one day. 7. Some prescription drugs deplete nutrients: ie Thiazides deplete CoQ10, magnesium, vitamin D; beta blockers deplete CoQ10, melatonin and chromium; Statins deplete CoQ10; metformin depletes folic acid and B12; SSRI anti-depressants deplete melatonin and folic acid; and most antibiotics deplete vitamin B, vitamin K, gut flora, calcium and magnesium. 8. Foods that are not good for you create endotoxins which is a form of “food poisoning” causing symptoms such as GERD arthritis, diabetes, and high blood pressure. 9. Teach your children to get involved with food preparation. For example making applesauce, smoothies, herbal iced teas and eggs.

Did you know?

The Internet has made it easier than ever before to access information quickly. But people who look to the Internet for answers to their medical questions may be doing themselves more harm than good. While the Internet can be a valuable resource, self-diagnosing medical conditions can be dangerous, as the risk of misdiagnosing signs or symptoms is considerable. But misdiagnosis is not the only potential problem of relying on the Internet instead of certiﬁed physicians for medical advice. "Cyberchondria" is a term used to described the unfounded escalation of concerns about certain symptoms a person might be experiencing. These unfounded concerns escalate as individuals search for and read information about their symptoms online. In fact, a 2008 Microsoft analysis of online search patterns found that onethird of the hundreds of thousands of people examined in the analysis tended to escalate their medical-related searches, potentially turning relatively minor medical conditions into something far worse, all without consulting a doctor. Men and women concerned about symptoms or medical problems should resist the temptation to self-diagnose online and should book an appointment with their physicians instead.

Storey Creek Golf Club is renowned for it’s mix of challenging and rewarding golf holes. Perhaps no other hole causes as much anguish as the Par 5 12th hole. Like Augusta’s Amen Corner, golfers who get through the 12th hole unscathed feel like they have a chance at a great back nine score. In this article I am going to try and guide you through how to play the hole to the best of your abilities. For those unfamiliar with the twelfth hole, the fairway is guarded on the right by water for the players first and second shot, and then by a bunker on the left of the fairway for longer hitters second shot. The highly contoured green is well guarded by three bunkers left, right and long. As part of your approach to every shot you face, you should always select a club that allows you to make a confident and aggressive swing. The 12th hole is no time to pull a club that you are unsure of and may cause you to throttle back on. From the tee, golfers can see four grass mounds at the far end of the fairway. Choose from the furthest right to the second in from the left to line up on. The red arrow shows the mound closest to the water hazard line. It is the most aggressive line, but also the line that will leave you with the shortest second shot to carry the water hazard on your second shot. The green arrow shows the least aggressive driving line, and should be the line for those that curve their ball right. Distances to the centre of the fairway in line with the mound farthest right (red arrow) from the: Gold Tee - 254 yards; Blue Tee - 237 yards; White Tee - 195 yards; Red Tee - 142 yards. For those playing a safer route, the distances would shorten slightly. Next up, is arguably the toughest shot on the hole. For players level with the end mound, there is a 123 yard carry past the water hazard, but 223+ yard shots have to be right of the fairway bunker. I would advocate choosing a club that you enjoy hitting, but cannot hit more than 215 yards. This will leave you an approach shot of slightly over 100 yards. If you lie further back, after a safe play drive, then you are aware of the challenge you face to carry the water hazard. Your dilemma is whether to play to the left, alongside the hazard or go for it. Straight hitters may feel comfortable playing down the fairway, but those used to some movement in the ball’s flight either need to start their ball over the water or start far enough away that the bend doesn’t bring it into play. If you are uncertain, choose a mid iron or hybrid and put an aggressive swing on it, playing left of the hazard, alongside it. Better to stay dry and be on the green in four, with a chance for your par, than be dropping and still be 150 yards+ away for your fourth shot. For those past the end of the water hazard you have less than 150 yards to negotiate. It is a slight climb up to the green, so ensure you take 1/2 club more than you would usually use for the distance you have remaining. Golfers that drew level with the bunker have 100 yards to the green centre. A red flag indicates the hole position is in the front third of the green, white central third and yellow flags are back third locations. I always try to get close, without going past the hole with my approach. An uphill putt is your friend on this wildly, contoured green. If you have time, try to look at your putt from a side view as well as from behind the ball, to gauge the gradient. We hope you ‘Tame The Twelfth’ hole next time you play at Storey Creek Golf Club!

Riptide U14 Boys Capture the silver medal at the Coastal “A” Cup

ALISTAIR TAYLOR/CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Attempted block

A Campbell River Bantam Raven levels a shot on net during Saturday’s game against the Alberni alley Tyees.

The Marine Harvest U14 Boys Riptide travelled to Vancouver on Saturday, April 30 to compete for the Gold medal at the Coastal “A” Cup final against Surrey Football club. Riptide boys came out of the gates with force and control. A string of passes presented sticker Fergus Hall a window to move the ball forward to Jerod Timothy. Jerod manoeuvred through two Surrey defenders and made a nice pass across the front of the goal for Cameron Bell who tapped the ball into the Surrey net. The physical intensity of the Surrey players kicked into high gear after that. Surrey turned up the attacking pressure which resulted in a point in their favour to tie up the game at the half. However, Riptide’s counterattack was excellent which led to abundant scoring opportunities throughout the match. This allowed Riptide to take back the lead with five minutes left in regulation time, almost sealing the deal. In the dying minutes of the

second half, Surrey’s relentless determination paid off, managing to score and tie up the game once again. In overtime, the play continued to move like a fast paced pendulum with both goalies making outstanding saves. Surrey was the first to find the back of the net to lead with a score of 3-2. Riptide fought hard to recover and the passion and perseverance was awarded with a goal in the last couple minutes of overtime. Thunderous cheers exploded from the Riptide players and fans, soon to be replaced by exasperated sighs and comments of disbelief when the goal was not counted as the play was called off side, resulting in Surrey FC winning the match. Coach Steve Hall said; “the boys had every chance to win the game and the whole team was complimented by the head referee of the tournament on how classy we were in our behaviours and play.”

River girls contribute to victory This past 2015/16 season the U16 Riptide girls worked hard to win a berth at the BC Provincial games. In doing so, they also qualified to play in the 63rd BC Coastal Cup 2016 Championship Finals. In order to get to the finals they had to win their way into the tournament, and then keep winning. On April 9 they won 1-0 vs the North Shore girls soccer club, and on April 16, they won 1-0 vs the

Vancouver Football club. April 30, they traveled by school bus with a group of ardent supporters all the way to the coastal city of Aldergrove to play against the West Vancouver Rangers. Once again, the girls pulled together, and worked hard as a team to achieve gold, and to bring the Coastal Cup home to the central Island. Althought the team is based in the Comox Valley, it’s members are girls from Port

Hardy, Campbell River, Powell River, and the Comox Valley, with a sub for this game from Nanaimo. West Vancouver was a strong team, but goalie Avarie (CV) gave a top performance with the goal posts, and managed a shut out. Alongside her, as defence, were Maddy (CR), Toni (CV), Tommylia (CR), Jodi (N), Jill (CV), and Jenna (CV). Strong in midfield were Olivia (CV),

Sophia (PR), Elysa (CV), Emily (CV) scoring the first goal, Rowan (CV), Emma (CR), and Breanna (CV). Scoring the second goal was Carsyn (PR), working with the other forwards Kaleigh (PH), and Cameron (CV). Tanisha (CR) was unable to play due to an injury. The weather was great, the traffic terrible, but the cheers on the ferry were unmistakably those of some very happy girls, and proud supporters.

Lots of changes to complex south of Willow Point LINDSAY CHUNG CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

he old Rona building south of Willow Point has gotten much more than a makeover recently. While the outside of the building at 2780 South Island Highway has undergone a large transformation, the changes inside are just as big. The complex is now home to Urban Dance Connection, Willow Point Storage, O.C. Detailing, Campbell River Hot Tubs Ltd., Sage Spa, Willow Medical Aesthetics and Generations Laser. Urban Dance Connection, Willow Point Storage and O.C. Detailing Urban Dance Connection owner Heather Larkam and her husband purchased the complex last summer. “Everyone thought we were crazy when we said we’ll be open in November,” Larkam said with a laugh. “It’s been wonderful. There’s been a lot of challenges as we go but they’re all really positive things. In the long run, it’s just been nice to be back in Willow Point and it’s opened up a lot of avenues for kids to

ride their bike to dance. A lot of people live down here. So the challenges seem less compared to the benefits.” Larkam has had the dance studio for almost 14 years now. She started it in Willow Point and it was originally named Salice Point Dance Academy. The dance studio expanded quickly and moved up to Dogwood Street and was there for about 12 years. With this move, Urban Dance Connection was able to expand. The dance studio, which is now about 15,000 square feet, opened in its new location Nov. 15. L ar k am s ay s t h e changes everyone can see as they drive by are just the beginning. “There’s a lot more we want to do,” she said. “There’s going to be landscaping coming up and just little things like that and we’re just going to chip away at it as we go and hopefully this is our first big adventure with this sort of stuff. “It’s been cool because even as a family, we have four kids from 16 all the way down to four, so it’s kind of leaving them a bit of a legacy in the town they grew up in.” The Larkams own the whole building and

along with Urban Dance Connection, they have a detailing shop, O.C. Detailing, in the back and Willow Point Storage. They lease space to Campbell River Hot Tubs and Sage Spa, Generations Laser and Willow Medical Aesthetics. Campbell River Hot Tubs Ltd. Terry Collins is in the business of helping people relax. He and his staff sell and service hot tubs and service pools all over the North Island through Campbell River Hot Tubs Ltd. Collins has been in this location since he started and has watched it transform. The B eachcomb er business started up in November, 1999 with Earlys Building Supply, with Collins working as manager of the hot tub department. Earlys became a Rona store and was eventually sold to Pacific Building Supply in Cobble Hill. In September 2008, Collins bought out the hot tub business from Pacific and leased this part of the building. Pacific sold the building last year to Evan Larkam and Collins’s lease was renewed with the Larkams. While Beachcomber

is Campbell River Hot Tubs’ primary line, they ser vice many other brands as well as commercial spas and hot tubs and offer chemicals and parts for swimming pools. The company recently expanded and hired a full-time technician, and there is now a staff of three: Collins, Ann Minosky and Aaron Jukes. In September, 2013, Collins was diagnosed with cancer and was given three to four months to live. “I had been getting pain and felt a lump just below my right side,” he said. “In October after a biopsy of the tumour, I was then told I had NonHodgkin lymphoma, stage four cancer.” After more tests, Collins began chemotherapy treatment in November at the Jubilee Hospital cancer clinic in Victoria. Further treatment took place at the Campbell River Hospital, and he had his last treatment April 7. Collins is in remission and is grateful for all the support he has received from staff at the Campbell River Hospital, his wife, family, friend Brian Dixon, his staff, and the thousands of customers who provided kind words and support. Generations Laser, Sage Spa and Willow Medical Aesthetics Three complimentary businesses that can help people feel healthier and happier share space inside Sage Spa. Aesthetician Valine Wheatley founded Sage Spa. She has operated her own business out of her house and reently opened the spa in this new complex in January.

Generations Laser and Willow Medical Aesthetics each rent a room from Wheatley. Sage Spa offers a wide variety of ser vices, including hand and foot care, waxing, facial treatments and corrective skin care, biosculpture nails, shiatsu massage therapy, registered massage therapy, permanent makeup and eyelash extensions. Inside the spa, Dr. Liezl Sullivan provides a variety of services through Willow Medical Aesthetics. Sullivan has been prac-

tising aesthetic medicine for more than 10 years and her specialties include dermal fillers to lift and fill unwanted facial lines, volume loss and to enhance lips; hyfrecation (a radiofrequency treatment for the skin that works on conditions such as moles, warts, skin tags, cherry spots and spider veins); injectable treatments to target unwanted lines or treat migraines and excessive swe at ing; sclerotherapy (a procedure where thread veins are injected in the legs) and medical skin peels.

The spa also houses G e n e r at i ons L a s e r, ow n e d by Nat a l e e Rhodes. Rhodes has been a laser technician for more than six years and has been an aesthetician for 11 years. “This has always been my dream, to have my own laser clinic,” she said. “I managed two separate laser clinics … and I just knew right away that it was something I wanted to do.” Treatments offered i n clu d e l a s e r h ai r removal, acne treatments, stem facials and vein therapy.

This is a 140 per cent increase from the previous high in 2012. China is now B.C.’s second most important market next to the United States. “Demand for salmon raised in B.C. has never been higher,” said Jeremy Dunn, Executive Director, BC Salmon Farmers Association in a press release. “The United States remains our most important trading partner, and will be so for some time, however we are encouraged at the market diversification and the prospects for growing demand in the future – particularly in Asia.” Trade with Asia overall is up 38% over the previous record in 2013 with B.C. exporting fresh farm-raised salmon for the first time to South

future, the federal Home Buyer’s Plan from their RRSP.

1. Manage your student loan For the first six months after graduation, you don’t actually have to make a payment but interest will accrue. Find out what your payment will be and include it in your budget. More is better but make at least the minimum payment each month. If you are unable to make payments, contact the loan provider right away.

3. Save smart with a TFSA Start a Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA). It complements your RRSP because investments held in a TFSA grow taxfree. You can currently contribute up to $5,500 in a TFSA each year tax-free and get your money back out at any time, for any purpose, tax-free. However, there is no reduction to your taxable income for TFSA contributions.

If you have a Canada Student loan, you may qualify for the Repayment Assistance Plan. If yours is a bank loan, you may be able to negotiate temporarily lowered payments.

4. Avoid high credit card debt Credit card interest rates can be 20% or more so limit their use. Try to pay the balance in full each month, and pay on time to avoid late fees and additional interest charges.

2. Save for tomorrow with an RRSP Consider putting the power of compounding to work for you by contributing to investments held in a Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) because investing even a small amount each month can build considerable wealth over the years. Plus contributions to RRSPs are deductible from your taxable income for each year in which contributions are claimed. Another RRSP plus: If you’re thinking about buying a home in the

5. Develop a budget – and stick to it Include all unavoidable expenses such as rent and utilities and be mindful of discretionary expenses, such as travel, that you can control. By the way, now is also the perfect time to incorporate these five first financial steps into an overall financial plan that will help you meet your personal objectives. Your professional advisor can facilitate your financial success by developing a financial plan for your unique situation.

The government says moving hunting services online acts on government’s commitment to reduce red tape for British Columbians and is part of the transformation of government’s natural resource services under the natural resource permitting project, as well as following up on a commitment that Thomson made in 2013.

Walk for Hearts

The Campbell River branch of the First Open Heart Society raised more than $7,200 at its 30th annual Walk for Hearts last Sunday. The event attracted 102 participants and included a walk along the Seawalk, beginning at the Willow Point Hall, as well as prizes, refreshments, and a rousing warmup. Funds raised will go towards cardiac equipment for the Campbell River Hospital. The First Open Heart Society is a support group for heart patients and their families, made up of all unpaid volunteers and all the funds are raised locally and stay local.

Pictured clockwise from left, refreshments were offered up following the walk. Walkers trek through Willow Point. Lynne Stone and MLA Claire Trevena join the walk. A group of walkers set off from the Lions Hall.

Annual General Meeting Notice Campbell River ElderCollege Thursday, May 12 at 1:30pm

Her spirit and life took her to living in Port Renfrew, Seattle, Nebraska, Clo-oose, (her place of peace), Duncan, and finally settling in Campbell River in 1967. Prior to settling here Wilf and Julie raised their two daughters spending many years in isolated logging camps experiencing hard work and family adventure on our BC coast. Julie worked as a Service Clerk for ICBC & eventually retired after 23 years at Service BC. Many winters after retirement were well spent â&#x20AC;&#x153;Snow birdingâ&#x20AC;? south of the border and traveling extensively through the United States. Road trips, a beautiful cruise or a flight to a tropical destination was what made Julie happy, she loved to explore... Julie touched so many of our hearts in life. She was beautiful inside and out, very generous and kind to all she knew. She loved to garden and spend time in the sun, she had even more plans to travel by land and sea, re-decorating, cooking and entertaining with loved ones was so much her passion at home. She also loved to camp and hike in the great outdoors, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seen more remote, untamed BC wilderness than we will ever be able to know. She was happiest with her husband, daughters, grandchildren, great grandchildren and extended family gathered, laughing and eating good food.

Walter Michael (Mike) McCluskey September 18, 1936-January 14, 2016

Mike is survivedÂ by his wife and partner of 34 years, Linda, sons Scott (Sherry) and Michael Jr., daughters Wendy and Carmen

(Sean), nine grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren, nephew Steven, niece Melissa, and his beloved cat Tonchie. Mike had a long and varied career in the aviation industry, flying many types of aircraft, on floats, skiis, and wheels, as well as copilot on Cessna Citation 500. He received his pilots license in 1955, and flew commercially until his retirement in 1995. Beginning in Ontario, he worked in many of the eastern provinces and territories, including Quebec, Labrador and Newfoundland, before moving his young family west to Campbell River in the mid 1960s.

Mike was a â&#x20AC;&#x153;jack of all tradesâ&#x20AC;? and avid outdoor enthusiast. Always busy, he built houses, hiked, biked and generally loved the outdoors. In 2003, he completed the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Great Walkâ&#x20AC;? from Tahsis to Gold River with his friend Klaus. He also held a ticket as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tool and Die Makerâ&#x20AC;?, and when not flying, worked in that trade for one of the Engineering outfits in Campbell River.

Mike loved to travel and along with Linda, had visited many countries, Peru, Thailand, Malaysia, India, Egypt, most of Europe, China, Tibet, Greece, Turkey, Singapore, Antarctica, and The Amazon to name a few. Many winters were spent in Mexico, enjoying the warm Mexican sunshine and comradery of friends. Mike was an inspiration to his children and grandchildren, and will be forever missed and loved, especially by his wife Linda.

Mike donated his brain to the UBC clinic for Alzheimer Disease at UBC Hospital. Donations can be made in Mikeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s memory to the Alzheimer Society of B.C.

A private gathering was held for Mike on Jan 17, 2016. There will be an informal scattering and celebration of life held for Mike at a later date.

December 4, 1925 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; December 18, 2015 Husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather, sailor, hunter, golfer and the best damn grader operator anywhere has left for greener pastures where every shot is a hole in one and every meal has Yorkshire Pudding and key lime pie. Dad was born in Parksville and, although he travelled far, his heart was always on the Island. After time in the logging industry, he joined the war effort and sailed with the Atlantic convoys during WW II on HMCS Prince Rupert. After the warâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s end, he joined the Surfacing Branch of what was to become the Ministry of Highways and laid a lot of the first blacktop in the Okanagan, Princeton and Cariboo areas. He met Mom while in Vernon and they got married in Parksville in 1951. Dad started looking for a job where he wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be away from home so much. They ended up in Quesnel where Dad was a foreman for Highways for many years. In 1964, Dad took a giant risk, quit Highways, bought his first grader and embarked on another adventure, building and maintaining logging roads and plowing snow. Another grader followed and Peter J Shaw Ltd. eventually had 2 graders, a loader and a truck plow. The opportunity to return to the Island came in 1975 and Dad sold off all the equipment except for the one grader and moved everyone to Campbell River. There followed many years of grading roads and plowing snow, mainly from Gold River to Head Bay but other places as well. Dad eventually sold the grader and retired but it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stick and he went back to work running grader for various outfits, including Holbrook Dyson Logging and Onion Lake Logging before really retiring in February 1989. Mom and Dad moved from South McCarthy to the place in Shelter Bay in 1984, where they spent many years; Mom digging in the garden and Dad golfing at Stories Creek or out fishing in the Topper III. While it was an idyllic life, it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stop them from running away to Yuma in the winter or to Cranbrook for hunting with his sons. When the stairs became too much, Mom and Dad moved to the Forde House in Willow Point in 2013 and then to Berwick in 2015. He leaves behind his wife Mary, children Ed (Linda), John, Peter (Tina), Paul and Cilka (Mark), many grandchildren and greatgrandkids. A Celebration of Life will be held at the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 137 in Campbell River on Saturday May 21, 2016 from 1 to 4 pm. Flowers gratefully declined. A donation in Peterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s memory made to Campbell River and District Adult Care Society, 12 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 142 Larwood Road, Campbell River, BC, V9W 1S2, 250 923 0991, cradult@telus.net, www.cradultcare.com, would be greatly appreciated.

Albert Karl Tarkanen

May 5, 1931- January 20, 2016 It is with much sadness that the family of Albert Karl Tarkanen announce his death which occurred on January 20, 2016 at the Nanaimo Regional General Hospital. Born May 5, 1931 in Alert Bay, BC., he was the only child of the late Jack and Esther Tarkanen. He was also predeceased by his first wife and mother of his children Eija (Jarvinen); second wife Fran (Drury) and his special grandson Brent Tarkanen. Albert is survived by his partner and best friend Mary Parkes; his three children Steve Tarkanen (Crystal), Linda Sjoberg (Campbell), Carleen Palo (Barry), daughter-in-law Jean Tarkanen, sons-in-law Tim Church and Gerald Sjoberg; seven grandchildren Tanya, Jason and Troy Sjoberg, Jory Tarkanen, Jaylene Atkinson, Dylan and Katie Church as well as nieces and nephews. At the age of six Albert moved with his parents to Sointula, BC., where as a teenager he began his lifelong and dearly loved career as commercial fisherman. Albertâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s knowledge of BC coastal waters was phenomenal and his happiest days were those spent fishing halibut, rock cod, herring, trolling for salmon and gill netting. His many boats from the Sturgeon1 to Island Reward were his pride and joy. Albertâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success as businessman and fisherman can be attributed to his ability to accept change, welcome new technology and his special skill of finding talented people to work with him. He will be missed not only at his Marine Ways, Freezer Plant and Net Loft in Sointula but by his network of commercial fisherman families and associated businesses all along the BC Coast. A service celebrating Albertâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life will be held in Sointula Hall at 2pm on January 30, 2016. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to Sointula Cemetery Fund.
