Regional directors withhold support of reserve citing lack of information KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The Strathcona Regional District’s electoral directors have decided not to support the Tlowitsis First Nation’s proposal to set up a reserve on York Road. The Electoral Area Services Committee voted Wednesday to withhold support, claiming that information requested by the regional district has not been made available and consultation with the Area D community has not occurred. That motion will now go to the whole regional district board for approval. Are a D D i re c tor Brenda Leigh made the motion and it was supported by Area A Director Gerald Whalley. Area B Director Noba Anderson was opposed. Leigh said her decision came down to the fact that the Tlowitsis have yet to show the regional district all of the environmental studies the Nation said it has completed and that the Tlowitsis have not engaged in any public consultation to ease the fears of her constituents. “I think with the scant information we’ve been given, I feel we’ve not been given meaningful information,” Leigh said. “We do have grave concerns.” On March 8, the regional district received a letter from the Tlowitsis Nation requesting a formal letter from the district stating that it has “no grave concerns with regard to this land development.” Tlowitsis Coun. Thomas Smith said the Nation has “completed all the environmental assessments, property appraisals, land encumbrances and a community infrastructure feasibility study and cost assessments” and has letters of support from

all the surrounding First Nations. Leigh, though, said she couldn’t support the proposal in the absence of more concrete plans for the proposed development despite a presentation Wednesday from Aniko Nelson, the regional district’s parks and planning manager. She told the board that water to the site is expected to be provided by two wells already on site and there is the potential for additional wells if necessary. Nelson said the Tlowitsis advised that they have approached the City of Campbell River in regards to water service and have expressed an interest in discussing the provision of services with the regional district. The Tlowitsis are planning to build 75 residential units to accommodate 100 to 200 of its members on lots 3-8 on the north side of York Road. The purchase agreement with TimberWest hinges on the Tlowitsis getting approval from the federal government, through the Addition to Reserves process, to convert the property to a reserve. Nelson said, however, that the Tlowitsis have indicated the land use plan is just a schematic and not a formal plan. She said “a tourist commercial campground and RV park are under consideration by the Tlowitsis” but that a formal plan for commercial development has not been completed. Smith said that’s because any land development would have to get preapproval by Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada. Smith, in a letter to the board, said there “will be a high level of land use planning upon completion of the sale of the (York Road site) and the granting of the land to reserve status.”

Nelson also outlined for the electoral area directors how governance may work on the reserve lands. “The ATR (Additions to Reserve) policy indicates that local and First Nation governments must come to an understanding on how bylaws can be harmonized,” Nelson said. “This does not require that land use bylaws within the reserve must be compatible with those on adjacent lands. The First Nation has the authority to determine independent land use on reserve lands.” There is also no guarantee that the public will continue to have access to the privately owned lands that have historically been accessed by recreational users. “ Typically reser ve roads are public; however, this would not ensure historic recreational roads would be accessible to the public,” Nelson said. Leigh also wanted to know if the Nation would be permitted to hunt on the lands, which are located in a residential, albeit rural, neighbourhood. “I’m concerned about the protection of human beings,” Leigh said. “This is a residential area, there’s houses all around.” Nelson said while the Tlowitsis have not provided information regarding wildlife protection, most courts have held that the provincial Wildlife Act does not apply to reserve lands and that Aboriginal Title is a right to the land, as well as the right to hunt, fish and gather. Nelson said her understanding is that hunting by bow may be permitted. Leigh thanked Nelson for the presentation but said she needs more. “A lot of the issues I raised have not been answered,” Leigh said,

referring to a list of nearly 30 questions she presented to regional district staff last month. “It’s not the fault of our staff. They’ve been trying very hard. We as a community are still in the dark about what is actually proposed to be there and it’s no fault of our staff or directors, we’ve tried.” Leigh said she’s spoken to a manager at Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada and voiced her community’s concerns. Smith said the First Nation is nearing the end of the information gathering process and is preparing to submit its Additions to Reserve application to Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada in the coming weeks. In the meantime, the regional district is hoping for public engagement. Ne l s o n s a i d t h e regional district would be willing to host the meeting. “As outlined in the ATR policy, First Nations are encourage d to involve and engage the public as early as possible in the planning and development phase of an ATR proposal,” Nelson said. “The Strathcona Regional District has asked the Tlowitsis to participate in a public process and they have indicated that they are amenable to participating in a public consultation with the community; however, the (regional district) has yet to receive a commitment from the Tlowitsis for public engagement.” Smith said “the Tlowitsis chief and council would like to be as transparent in regard to our development as is practical. We want to be as open and clear as we can within the limits of the law and our responsibilities to our Tlowitsis members.”

BC Hydro’s Salmon River diversion project diverts water into the Campbell River system.

BC Hydro puts Salmon River project on hold BC Hydro put its Salmon River project on hold – weeks before it was about to start – pending a review that could result in it being downscaled or even decommissioned. After crunching the numbers on the final cost of the three-phase project that was to start this year and be complete in 2018, BC Hydro has determined the project cost to be too high when compared to the overall value of the facility in what it provides for hydroelectric power on the Campbell River system. “People in the community and our staff have spent a lot of time on this project the last number of years to determine the best way to upgrade the facility for improved fish passage and the dam safety upgrades,” says BC Hydro spokesperson, Stephen Watson. “However, after a full review in April, the cost of this proposed project is too high for us to proceed within the context of how much water we

may divert into the Campbell River system on an annual basis. We really appreciate all the time and effort First Nations, government agencies and the wider community have put into this project. We apologise that we are putting the project on hold at this time when work was about to begin in June. People were looking forward to the work starting. It was a hard decision for us to make, though one we believe to be the right one.” Watson said it was important that BC Hydro put the project on hold for a period of time so that the right decision for this facility can be made in the interests of the province, BC Hydro, their ratepayers, the environment, First Nations, stakeholders and the community. BC Hydro has been notifying First Nations, fish agencies and stakeholders like the Campbell River Salmon Foundation of the decision over the Continued on Pg. 5

A grand gesture

With high school graduation and summer fast approaching the Campbell River RCMP is reminding homeowners about the dangers and risks involved with hosting parties, especially where minors are consuming alcohol. The public should be aware that they can be held civilly liable for any circumstances that stem from consumption on their property whether it’s adults or youth, consuming either drugs or alcohol, Const Sara Clark, Campbell River RCMP media relations officer,

said. This includes damage and injury that resulted from unruly or criminal behaviour including things like impaired operation of motor vehicles. This is called host liability and until that person is home safe in their own residence the host can be held civilly accountable for anything that occurs between the host’s property and the person home. In the case of underage liquor consumption or providing a minor liquor, it also may result in a charge under section 33(1) of the Liquor Control and Licensing Act which carries a fine of $575. This can be issued to the host of the party by

the RCMP. If the party is causing a noise disturbance then there is also a public nuisance bylaw under section 6.3 of Campbell River City Bylaw which carries a fine of $250 and can also be issued to the host of the party. “It is common to talk to parents who think they are doing the right thing by allowing consumption in their home, feeling it’s a controlled environment. They aren’t thinking about being held accountable for the youths’ actions because they facilitated them in entering a state of impairment,” said Const. Clark The legal drinking age in British Columbia is 19 years of age.

past week. In 2012, BC Hydro committed to adult fish passage improvements at the Salmon River diversion facility and has been working with First Nations and government agencies to develop long-term solutions. A capital project was initiated in 2014/2015 to deal with improved upstream fish passage, improved out-migration of fish past the dam, and dam and canal safety upgrades for the 58-year-old facility. When all three components of the project were fully assigned a cost, it proved to be expensive. “It’s a good thing we combined all the work to get a full picture,” says Watson. “For what’s next, likely through

this year, we will work with First Nations and government fish agencies to determine if the project can proceed at a lower cost or taking the facility out of service and decommissioning it. This is the magnitude of what we are considering. We are leaning to facility decommissioning as the likely option to benefit fish and fish passage up the Salmon River watershed, and for the broader benefit to the environment. “Removing the facility would not be a simple process and will take some time for further community consultation and ultimately require a submission to the BC Utilities Commission for approval. That process can take a few years before any site work may

happen.” Watson says the Salmon River diversion will likely continue to operate as business as usual until a final outcome is determined. Located between Campbell River and Sayward, the Salmon River Diversion is used to divert water from the Salmon River, when there is enough water to do so, through a three-kilometre canal system into Brewster Lake and eventually into the Lower Campbell Reservoir for power generation through the Ladore and John Hart generating stations. Water from the diversion also provides water supply for other Campbell River water use interests such as reservoir recreation and fish habitat flows.

The chair of the board will receive $13,751 next year, the vice chair will receive $12,245 and the rest of the trustees will receive $11,474 next year. The raise is based on a formula created by an independent community group formed in 2005 who reviewed trustee compensation and the method by which it should be determined going forward – instead of having trustees being

tasked with setting their own pay rates on a yearly basis. The calculation, secretary-treasurer Kevin Patrick told the board, is based on the average of what is paid to school trustees across all the school districts on the Island, adjusted for projected student enrolment within SD72 itself. And so each April, the board finds out what they will be paid beginning in July of that year. The formula sets SD72 trustee remuneration at the median remuneration of all other Island school districts. This number is found,

in part, by calculating the “per-student” compensation given to all trustees across the Island. Based on the announced remuneration for next year, the remuneration for a nonchair or vice-chair in SD72, with a projected enrolment of 5,367, will be approximately $2.13 per student. For comparison, based on the numbers presented by the secretarytreasurer at the meeting, non-chair or vice-chair trustees in the Alberni School District (SD70), with an enrolment of about 3,700, earn $2.70 per student, while trust-

ees in the Comox School District (SD71), with a student population of 7,522 are paid at a rate of $1.60 per student enrolled using that calculation. The use of the formula, the board says, relieves the pressure of having to come up with a fair rate of compensation for their own time and effort. “It’s hard to give yourself a raise, especially when you’re always having to look for cuts to be made,” says trustee Darryl Hagen, and this formula takes that struggle, along with the “public perception” aspect of

voting yourself a raise on the public dime out of the equation. “It’s just something automatic,” he said, “and makes it so we don’t have to wrestle with ourselves.” Secretar y-treasurer Kevin Patrick agrees with the formulaic model taking the pressure off the board to determine their own compensation. It also helps create parity between districts, which he says is a good thing. “Some boards, for a while, were getting $5,000 while the one next door that was the same size was getting

Campbell River Head Injury Society in desperate need for more housing units KRISTEN DOUGLAS

CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The Campbell River Brain Injury Society is being inundated with requests for housing and is being forced to turn people away. “We have a 30-plus waitlist right now for supports for individuals with brain injuries and we constantly have at least 10 people a week coming in asking ‘is there any housing?’” Shelley Howard, executive director of the Head Injury Society, told city council at its meeting Monday. “So it’s something we are really eager on looking at – other alternatives.” The society recently opened up two apartment buildings on the corner of 16th Avenue and Petersen Road. Each apartment has 11 suites for a total of 20 one-bedroom living quarters and two bachelors. The city provided

THEY SAID IT: “We have a 30-plus waitlist.”

$34,000 towards the purchase of the buildings which are used as longterm care homes for individuals with brain injuries. The initiative complements Hillcrest House, located at 9th Avenue and Dogwood Street, which includes office space for the society and temporary housing for up to four clients. But Howard said it’s not enough. “We have a call for proposals out to look at the lot next door or the lot on the other side of the corner of where we are on 9th and Dogwood to create more options,” she said.

“This one is for individuals and families because right now we don’t have anything (for multiple residents) so we’ve kind of supported families in a one-bedroom apartment which is kind of tough.” Howard added that the society is also looking to add more office space below the new apartments and create a community centre space on the property. “There’s a need,” Howard told council, noting that the city has recently been struggling with how best to serve the community’s homeless population. “Brain injury is one of the strong components of being homeless. “We’d like to keep individuals with brain injuries off of the streets and out of hospitals. It costs just over $1,000a-day to keep someone in the hospital because they can’t be let out in the community because they’re not safe.”

Howard added that the apartments provided by the Head Injury Society offer transitional housing that helps residents continue to receive life skills and financial support long-term. The housing is affordable and is offered on an income-based rent. Residents at both Hillcrest House and the Campbellton apartments have access to a support worker. The society sees more than 100 clients on an ongoing basis, providing them with medical, physical and emotional support. Howard reminded council that no one is immune to brain injury. “Brain injury can happen at any time, to any one,” she said. “It doesn’t pick favourites.” According to the society, brain injury is present in 53 per cent of homeless populations, as well as up to 87 per cent of incarcerated populations.

It also places a substantial burden on the healthcare system. By 2031, traumatic brain injury will be the most prevalent neurological condition. Indirect economic costs due to working-age disability will increase and will be greatest for hospitalized traumatic brain injury, rising from $7.3 billion in 2011 to $8.2 billion in 2031.

$15,000,” Patrick says. “By having a model like this, it’s not just subject to, potentially, the board of the day, it’s consistent, it’s comparable, it’s fair and it’s defendable.” And he notes that it doesn’t always work in the board’s favour.

“There have been years when it actually did go down,” Patrick says. Next year, however, the board chair will see an increase of $609, the vice chair will receive an increase of $482 and other trustees’ remuneration will go up by $378.

Our View

Dumb drivers smacked Our governments often have trouble acknowledging inflation and the power of the wealthy. They pooh-pooh the idea of eliminating political donations from businesses and unions – even though it’s obviously a good idea – and they leave welfare and minimum wage rates stagnant for years, ignoring the skyrocketing cost of living. That applies to penalties and traffic tickets as much as any other segment of government action. The sharp increase in fines for distracted drivers announced earlier this week will, unfortunately, not eliminate the texting driver from B.C.’s roads. If jacking up the fines was all it took, we could increase fines for speeding through school zones, drunk driving, and texting to $1 million per We say: Perhaps infraction. Problem solved! an increase in So raising the fine from fine will give $167 to $368 minimum won’t stop everyone from people pause using Twitter while heading down the highway at 140 km/h. But hopefully a few of those tickets, plus the four points on their driver’s licences, plus the escalating fines for additional tickets, will give some people pause. If you went back 20 years, a $167 ticket would have been a considerable burden to many, especially new drivers. In the 1980s and ’90s, many teenagers were buying their first cars for not much more than that. (They weren’t great cars.) Jacking up the cost of tickets isn’t just about sticking it to awful drivers, it’s about acknowledging that too many people can shrug off the cost of a $167 ticket. Some can still deal too easily with the more expensive penalties. For them, we’re glad the province is also looking to review the licences of chronic distracted drivers. -Black Press

We don’t need the stress of dealing with a massive extra bill for hospital parking Dear Saanich Coun. Judy Brownoff, Re: Hospital parking, The Campbell River Mirror (www.campbellrivermirror. com, April 15) quotes you on the issue of hospital parking as saying, “It’s a difficult situation,” and “I’d rather the dollars go to health care than a parkade.” While I cannot say how delightful it is to have elected representatives using our tax money wisely, it seems to me you have not completely thought this one through. I know Jim Abram and other north island representatives have attempted to explain. Allow me to try as well. I am a regular user of the Campbell River Hospital.

Every couple of weeks I need to attend Medical Daycare and spend some hours sitting in a comfy chair there while I am infused with blood products to support my immune system. I have been doing this for most of a decade as I have fought a very rare cancer into remission. It has meant I am unable to work though and I am on medical disability. It is all I can do to make my mortgage payments. I absolutely count on the food bank. I simply do not have the room in my budget for another $40-$60 to pay parking at the hospital. Take the bus you say? I live on Quadra Island and so need to drive across. Park a few blocks away and take a refreshing walk

you say? Save the money for healthcare you say? I was run down by a truck while going home from one of these infusions and am unable to walk a few blocks. You absolutely put me at much higher risk by asking me to attempt such behavior. My cost to the system is already extensive. Your willingness to “have the dollars go to healthcare” means I will not be able to afford to get my life saving infusions. That certainly will save the system some money. I will be dead. You likely will just blow me off as a crank. I am not. I was a first responder and a total family man. I know a number of people who are at risk if park-

ing becomes a cash grab for the hospital. They are in exactly my situation - they come from outlying communities for regular treatments and they are dealing with life changing illnesses. We just do NOT need the stress of dealing with a massive extra bill on a very limited income. I personally know a few who will stay away, unable to deal with this. It will kill them. Their blood will be on your hands. Frankly, my blood will be on your hands. I hope you sleep well. You likely will, after counting all the dollars you make from hospital parking.

Developers want the city to put money towards aging sewer infrastructure in the Jubilee Heights area. Couverdon told city council at council’s Monday meeting that the existing sewer system is a “major impediment” to the development of a subdivision in the area in and around Erickson, Harrogate and Larwood roads. Ross McKeever and Jason Carvalho of Couverdon Real Estate/Tim-

berWest told council that the “DCC (development cost charges) eligible infrastructure upgrade stands in the way as a major impediment to the realization of a sustainable community for Jubilee Heights and the surrounding neighbourhood in the South Dogwood/Airport area.” Jubilee Heights is slated for development on the corner of Jubilee Parkway and South Dogwood Street. The area encompasses 161 acres and for the past 20 years has been the focus of significant

future development. A letter from the city, dated Jan. 19, 2016 provided Couverdon with five options for addressing sewer deficiencies. Couverdon said four of them have “the landowners absorbing all or the majority of the projected $2.7 million cost of this sewer upgrade.” Couverdon said it’s requesting the city follow through on the fifth option it provided – a city capital project where market demand drives the priority in council’s decision making. “We believe, as you do,

that there is sufficient ‘market demand’ and that Jubilee Heights is a high priority for the city if there is to be a consistent source of well positioned, affordable single family lots in the Willow Point Jubilee area,” wrote McKeever. “Jubilee Heights is essential if the city wants to maintain a competitive market position with the Willow Point and Jubilee area, the city’s most desirable neighbourhood.” McKeever said Jubilee Heights has several positive attributes that will make it attractive to

home buyers. He noted that the area is close to the airport and arterial roads like the Island Highway, Dogwood and Alder. It’s also where a significant proportion of the city’s population is moving. According to a consultant’s report prepared for the city in 2015, between 2010 and 2015, 49 per cent of all residential construction occurred in the Willow Point area. Development plans for Jubilee Heights include a mix of single and multifamily housing units, as well as a new fire hall and a school and playfield. “Jubilee Heights is anticipated to bring 350 new single family lots to the community of Campbell River,” McKeever said, but added the city’s sewer infrastructure needs to be upgraded in order to handle additional users brought onto the system. “The Jubilee Heights development is

reliant on that upgrade. We’re receiving various interests from various parties to get it moving ahead. We need the proper infrastructure to receive Jubilee Heights and add that supply and amenities to the community.” Mayor Andy Adams said “there is mutual interest to find a way forward.” He questioned whether Couverdon could start the development if sewer upgrades are another year or two down the road. McKeever said because it’s expected to take 12 to 15 years to complete the entire development, some density on a single family basis could be built up. Council thanked McKeever and Carvalho for their presentation and later in the meeting went in-camera, which is closed to media and the public, to further discuss Couverdon’s request.

City to provide bus passes for Syrian refugees coming to Campbell River KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The city will provide free transportation for up to one year for the first wave of Syrian refugees coming to Campbell River. Council, at its Monday meeting, approved 11 adult passes and four student passes for the family of Merell and Fouad Awad, who own Campbell River’s BaBa Gannouj restaurant. Mary Cook, on behalf of the Campbell River Syrian Refugee Committee, had asked council to consider providing free transportation for the refugees to help with basic settlement costs.

On Monday, city staff recommended council go ahead with granting Cook’s request. Drew Hadfield, the city’s transportation manager, said there would be no net loss of revenue to the transit system to provide the passes as they will benefit new residents not currently using transit. “As this request would be for new residents to our community, there would be no loss of revenue from the existing system to provide transit passes for the year for the 11 adults and four students,” Hadfield said. “The city has provided free transit services in the past to a number of

A silver lining despite a home decimated by wildfire JOCELYN DOLL CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Chris and Stacey Steedman were out for a walk around noon on May 3 when they got a call from a friend asking them to pick up her cat and a few belongings from an area of Fort McMurray under voluntary evacuation. By the time the Steedmans had packed up a few of her things and returned to their own home, the mayor had called for mandatory evacuation of the whole city. “We thought, if anything our area is going to be completely fine,” Chris said. “We’ll be evacuated but it’s just precautionary and we’ll come back to our home, rinse out the smoke and life will carry on. Our area, five, six, seven kilometres away was the one that was hardest hit.” With little time to pack and leave, Stacey dealt with household items and two-year-old Mason, while Chris took the winter tires off of their vehicle. “I don’t know why in my head I thought I had time to change the winter

tires, I just felt like it was something that needed to be done,” he said. Stacey packed as if they were going on a holiday, but with all of the essentials. The Steedmans have the deed to their house as well as their passports. She even grabbed their laundry basket instead of pulling old clothes that they never wear out of drawers. “She did so well with a screaming toddler beside her the whole time,” Chris said proudly. Once they learned that the highway going south was closed, Stacey said she went into a second round of panic and began filling suitcases with food.

“I filled up any water bottle I could find,” she said. They went north away from the fire and towards the work camps. “It was pretty impressive to see six lanes, two highways, both heading north, everything full,” Chris said. The camp where they stayed had been closed for months and employees were scrambling trying to make arrangements. The family was assigned to a small bedroom with a twin bed. Stacey’s last minute packing of food and water came in handy as there wasn’t enough to go around at the camp. “Then a hellacious

night, just trying to cope with everything that happened,” Chris said. Early the next morning, with the highway reopened, the Steedmans drove south, back through the city. They couldn’t get gas, so they asked a friend from Edmonton to meet them on the highway with a jerry can. They passed one gas station and heard people were waiting for six hours to fill up. Chris said that the drive was something out of an apocalyptic movie. Not only was there smoke and smouldering grass on the side of the highway, there were abandoned cars and people tenting as well. Once they were out of the danger zone, the Steedmans headed for Campbell River to stay with Stacey’s family. They arrived in town on May 6. John DeArmond, Stacey’s dad, had been calling the house while the Steedman’s were travelling towards the camp. When he went to bed at 10:30 p.m. the answering machine still picked up, when Stacey called that night at 2:10 a.m., she couldn’t get through.

“The firefighters called it a losing battle once it hit our area,” she said. “It’s like it skipped a whole part of the city and went around through the Birchwood trails and it just overtook the area.” Though she was thinking clearly at the time, Stacey said she has had multiple breakdowns since leaving the city. “I can’t explain it. I couldn’t even feel my skin once I knew that our house was going to be gone,” she said. “I’m most devastated over Mason’s sentimental baby items that are not replaceable. Everything else I know it’s fine and

A friend of Chris’ is still stuck in a work camp “You hear stuff like that and it is hard to pity our situation,” Chris said. “Sure we’ve lost a lot but we’re able to get so much. The family is safe. We are together.” The outpouring of support from neighbours and friends in Campbell River has been unbelievable. “That has been the real silver lining here,” Chris said. “We are just overwhelmed with the generosity that people have shown.” Stacey agreed, “There is a light at the end of the tunnel.”

we will rebuild and we will get everything back but that’s when I get really upset when I think about that stuff.” The Steedmans are optimistic. Chris still has a job with Syncrude, their insurance company is rebuilding their house and their mortgage is on hold for six months. The y know many families are struggling more than they are. One of Stacey’s friends who lived in Gregoire, a neighbourhood in south Fort McMurray, had to escape on a quad with her two year old and her six month old.

School District tennis club is no racket MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Local elementary school teacher Brent Larmour says when he was a kid growing up right here in Campbell River, “Tennis was huge. You couldn’t even get on the courts, because they were just always full.” Well, he is trying – and seemingly succeeding – at making tennis a more popular thing again amongst Campbell River youth. He runs the School District 72 (SD72) Tennis Club, which is seeing its membership grow year to year and is currently up to around 50 members. “The first year we did K-12, but the age discrepancy was too big,” he says, “so we focused on the middle and high schools at first and tried to break it up and get the south end – the Southgate and Timberline group playing together – and the north end – the Carihi and Phoenix kids playing together.” But since he’s an elementary school teacher, he wanted to get the younger kids back involved, too. So last year he “added the Sandowne kids playing at Robron” into the mix. That went over well, so this year he opened it up to Grade 3-5 kids district-wide to play Tuesdays and Thursdays at Willow Point Park by the Sportsplex. And then the high school kids from John Jepson’s leadership program at Carihi joined up to help out with the elementary program, which creates a mentorship aspect, as well. “They’re great,” Larmour says.

“They’re such a big help, especially in when you’re just introducing the younger kids to it and giving them all the dos and don’ts for safety reasons and stuff like that, it’s good to have a few more sets of eyes around to make sure everyone’s being safe.” On Mondays and Wednesdays he’s at Centennial Park coaching the Carihi and Phoenix students while Paul Klien and Shawn Cowan coach the Timberline/Southgate group at Willow Point. Larmour says the popularity of tennis, like that of other sports, comes in waves, and he thinks the wave is coming back in. “When I was growing up, lacrosse was huge, too, and then it kind of went away a bit for a while, and now it’s coming back, and I think tennis is like that, too. It’s riding a wave up. I’ve been told it’s one of the fastest growing sports in Canada,” he says, due in part to the two big-name Canadians making their own waves in tennis right now: Milos Raonic and Eugenie Bouchard. Helping build that wave, he says, is also the “radically changed” approach by Tennis Canada in teaching the sport: an approach called Progressive Tennis. Progressive Tennis, Larmour says, uses a systematic progression of court size, balls and rackets to scale the game down to an appropriate level for youth. This scaling allows them to improve their skills more quickly, he says, instead of getting frustrated with the sport. “The quicker and more skillfully

a player can play this game, the more fun it is,” Larmour says, “so this is a really great system to make it more fun more quickly for them and lets them pick up the fundamentals a bit easier to start them off.” While there is some teaching involved and the practices are structured, Larmour says the most important aspect for him, “is just that the kids just come out and have some fun.”

They have rackets available for kids that don’t have one – though the kids are expected to get their own, eventually – so all they need when they show up is enthusiasm and a decent pair of shoes. “It’s one of the things that makes tennis so attractive to parents,” he says. “It’s one of the more reasonable sports, cost-wise,” he says. “It’s just two rackets and a couple of balls, and you’ve got a game,” he says. “That’s not the case in a lot of

other sports, where there’s a bunch of expensive equipment to buy.” For more information on the club, email Larmour at Brent.Larmour@SD72.bc.ca or stop by the courts to have a chat. Mondays and Wednesdays he’s at Centennial and on Tuesdays and Thursdays he’s at Willow Point. Practices run from 3:15 to 4:30 each day for six weeks and begun April 25, so there’s still time to get some court time for the kids.

Killer Whales throwing Shade at the competition Local swimmer Jesse Shade is leading the wave of Campbell River Killer Whales through their long course season after some recent success at the regional qualifying meet for Special Olympics. Shade finished first in all six of his events, which earns him an invitation to the provincial championships. He is a strong favourite to make it through that championship and on to the National Championships where he will face some tough competition in his attempt to earn the right to represent Canada in the future. The remainder of the squad are two events into long course season – where the young athletes change their focus from a 25 meter pool to the Olympic size 50 meter pool – and have had strong showings thus far, as well, breaking eight club individual

records and five club relay records so far. Individual record breakers included Cianna Dunn, Kaya Lathangue, Brooke Wenger and Summer Wenger. Additional swimmers who contributed to the club relay records were Martina Montana, Ava Simard, Aleah Jordan, Melayna Beaudin and Jamiliya Wellard. The Killer Whales also had swimmers showing an affinity to the longer pool qualifying for their next level of swim meets with Maria Fernanda Villarroel qualifying for the Vancouver Island Regionals. Ava Simard and Martina Montana both achieved their first “AA” provincial Standard. Carson Dunn and Ali Beck raced to their first “AAA” provincial standard with Beck also qualifying for the Western National Championships held next February.

Coach Jim Campbell looks forward to seeing the progress continue at the Island Medley Challenge meet, happening from May 20 to 22 in Victoria.

year; for others, it was the introduction to what would become their favourite sport. There was an outpouring of positive feedback from parents happy to see the event running again, one of whom said, her parents watched me compete as a child, and now she’d brought her Mom to watch her kids compete. Participants had the opportunity to compete in a variety of running events, including the 100m, 200m, 400m, 800m, and 1200m. Carihi Sports Leadership students marshalled and timed competitors and ran the field events: discus, shot put, high jump, and long jump. Their participation is part of what has allowed the event to expand, and is also a great opportunity for the students to gain skills as well as mentor young athletes. Coaches from the Campbell River Comets Track and Field Club also lent their valuable expertise to the event, despite being busy with the track season, which is currently underway. The Comets have track practices two times a week and travel across the island for meets throughout the spring and summer. They are always happy to receive new members, and registration usually takes place in February. For those looking forward to more district meets, organizers say they hope to continue to host them into the future – continuing this now-revitalized tradition for the community.

Get ready for Bike to Work Week!

The Phoenix track was a hub of activity on Tuesday as students in grades five, six, and seven competed at the invitational district track and field meet. District meets, an annual highlight for Campbell River elementary school students for many years, have only recently been resurrected. The elementary meets ceased to be held after the schools were reconfigured in 2012. Fortunately, in recent years, dedicated volunteers have begun to revive the tradition. In its first year, the meet – a collaborative effort between École Phoenix, Southgate, and the Campbell River Christian School – was held solely for grade six students. It was expanded in its second year to include grade seven students, and this year Phoenix and Southgate welcomed grade fives, bringing elementary schools back into the fold. Grade 5 students from Quadra, Oyster River, Pinecrest, Penfield, Discovery Passage, École Willow Point, Sandowne, and Oyster River competed, swelling both the field of athletes and the cheering section. Running, throwing, and jumping from 9:15 am to 2:00 pm, students had not only the chance to demonstrate and build upon their skills, but also to take part in what was once a Campbell River tradition. Many Campbell Riverites have fond memories of meets such as the one held one Tuesday. For some students, the district meet was the highlight of the

PROCESS

For 20 years the Campbell River Kinsmen have proudly been supporting the Rod Brind’Amour/Nugent-Hopkins Cystic Fibrosis Golf Classic. From the very beginning they encouraged and partnered with the CF chapter to make the event a success. L-R back: Rod Brind’Amour, Brian Toner, Jim Costain, Cystic Fibrosis (CF) has been the National Service Project of Kin Canada since 1964 and Al Buxton, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, Lorne Novak ( president of Kinsmen) Front: Bob Nicoll, Darren Lannon, Ron Wood it was a natural fit that the CR Kinsmen lend their time and support for the Golf Tournament to raise funds locally to fight CF. Kin clubs support CF research, clinical care and fund local projects right across the country. When they first joined in the fight against CF, children with the disease were not expected to live past the age of four. So for roughly every year of Kin support, an extra year of life for a child with CF has been gained! The fight against cystic fibrosis will continue to have a special place in the hearts of the Campbell River Kinsmen. They are there for the long haul and will be amongst the first to rejoice when CF stands for “cure found”.

Fisher is a member of the Campbell River Beacon Club, and he will be helping at the event again this year, cooking hot dogs for the afterwalk barbecue. Monies raised through participant pledges, sponsor donations andbarbecue sales will help the club provide meals and

activities for its 70-plus members for the year. Since 1993 the club has helped adults with mental illnesses such as depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, PTSD and anxiety. Fisher joined on the recommendation of his clinician at Mental Health Substance Use to help with his anxiety. “They said I should try to do more social things because you end up isolating yourself when you have depression and anxiety,” he said. “You can be yourself here, it’s a safe place to go where people understand mental health issues.” Fisher enjoys weekly activities such as Mindfulness and Friday Dinners, but what he likes the best is the trips he takes with the club to other Island communities. Last year the club did an overnight trip to

Gold River and took the Uchuck boat to Friendly Cove. “It really means a lot to me because it’s a trip I’ve always wanted to do on my own, but may never have gotten the chance to otherwise,” he said. Fisher added he’s made a lot of good friends at the Beacon Club and in fact, it’s very much like a family. He advises if you learn you have mental illness, you don’t have to go it alone because there are a lot of local resources to help, including the club. “There’s a level of genuine care here, from the staff and the other members,” he said. “It makes me feel empowered, in that I can do things despite my mental illness, with the support of the right people. I don’t feel isolated, I feel more like I belong.”

Through his involvement with the club he learned about the Dinner Bell program, a joint job-readiness program of MHSU and the Salvation Army. MHSU clients receive hands-on training to work in the food services industry. They also prepare homemade, economical frozen meals for other MHSU clients to purchase. Fisher started out as student, became a mentor and is now Chef Assistant to Red Seal Chef/Instructor Connie Preston. They and their Dinner Bell team will be operating the barbecue at the Defeat Depression Walk again this year. Registration begins 9:30 a.m. at the longhouse in Ostler Park and the 4km walk begins 11 a.m. For more information contact Robyn at campbellriver@defeatdepression. ca or 250-286-8828.

Disney’s Beauty and the Beast coming to Tidemark Theatre On May 21, for two shows only, see the kids from RainCoast Creative Preforming Arts in Disney’s Beauty and the Beast. “What you guys have here in Campbell River is amazing,” said Sara Partridge, head of the vocal department for the Canadian College for the Performing Arts, in RainCoast Creative’s press release. The RainCoast team invites the community to enjoy the magic as Belle, played by Grace Christiansen, enters an enchanted castle where the Beast and his host servants live under a spell. “Our students are talented, hard working young people who take instruction well and bring the music, characters and story to life,” said Beth Miller, Rain-

nition for excellence in musical theatre, but the costumes will be magical as well. Miller creates all of the costumes for the show. It really is a team effort. Miller designs the costumes and staff as well as parents put in time to make the visions come to life. “We want our costumes to fit the kids perfectly,” the RainCoast team said. “They are created and tailored for each of them, whether they are a five year old towns

Bute Inlet: The heart of Homalco culture L

ast year was the inaugural year for the Homalco Band’s Cultural Experience tours taking place at their traditional territory in Orford Bay, located in the historic and stunningly beautiful Bute Inlet. The Museum at Campbell River, in partnership with Discovery Marine Safaris and the Homalco Band, offered two trips in 2015 which were extremely popular by the participants and this year, the Museum will increase the number of trips to three. Each trip is on a Sunday, and is about 10 hours long; leaving Campbell River by boat at 8 a.m. and returning around 6 p.m. that evening. The dates are June 5, 12, and 19. Bute Inlet is one of the most stunning waterways on the coast, flanked by soaring mountains and containing crystalline waters. For many living in coastal B.C., it is rare to

The Museum at Campbell River offers boat tours to beautiful Bute Inlet this summer.

be able to travel up into these far away inlets to enjoy their outstanding beauty. Rarer still is the opportunity to visit a First Nations reserve and to experience an ancient culture. The Homalco Band has been making efforts over the past few years to reconnect to their traditional lands along the Orford River. The area is abundant with wildlife, being a prime location for grizzly bear viewing. The Band along with General Manager

of Homalco Wildlife Tours Inc., Shawn O’Connor, has worked with its youth to create cultural experiences for visitors. O’Connor says that they are continually adding to their guides’ training in such areas as ethnobotany, First Aid, Small Vessel Operator Proficiency (SVOP) and Coast Salish culture. Most importantly he said, “The young people are enjoying every minute of it.” The tour will include the opportunity to

paddle a traditional 18-foot Salish design ocean going canoe, witness a demonstration of cedar weaving, learn Homalco history, visit with a Homalco artist, peek in at a hatchery and visit the grizzly bear platforms. If local wildlife make an appearance that will be a bonus. But of special note will be a delicious traditional seafood feast prepared for lunch. Last year’s participants couldn’t say enough about how much they enjoyed both the feast and the enthusiasm of the Homalco youth who proudly demonstrated traditional dancing, drumming and singing both during and after the meal. It has taken many years, but at last members of the Homalco Indian Band of Campbell River have come full circle; reclaiming their history on their own ancestral lands. To witness Band members

telling their own stories is a profound way to gain insight into this remote and spectacular area. Homalco means “people of turbulent, or fast running water.” The Homalco language is a Coast Salish dialect, and their core tradi-

tional territory extends from Dent Island to the vicinity of Raza Passage and includes all of Bute Inlet. The cost for the trip is $205 and includes the seafood feast, onboard interpretation both to and from Bute Inlet by a knowledge-

able historian, as well as all activities upon arrival.To reserve a seat, call the Museum at 250-287-3103. Check the Museum website at www.crmuseum.ca for a full listing of all the Historic Boat Tours this summer.

or many white wine lovers wine begins and ends with Chardonnay. From its traditional home in the vineyards of Burgundy in France, Chardonnay migrated to other European wine regions, as well as the New World – Australia, North America, South Africa and South America. Wherever it is grown, it can make great – and often extremely remarkably affordable – white wines. And these wines can be deliciously different without losing any of their appeal. Here in British Columbia, New Zealand-born Mission Hill winemaker John Simes set the benchmark for Okanagan Chardonnays with the 1992 vintage of Grand Reserve Barrel Select Chardonnay. The wine world was astonished when this upstart white from British Columbia won the

creamy tangerine and apple aromas follow through onto the palate and give this Similkameen Valley white a clean, crisp, refreshing finish. The vineyards of British Columbia produce an astonishing variety of excellent Chardonnays – from the Okanagan and Similkameen to the Fraser Valley and as far west as Vancouver Island. Working in the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island, winemaker Matt Dumayne’s 40 Knots Uncloaked Chardonnay (481689) $20.99 is also raised in stainless steel to showcase the freshness and purity of fruit in this timeless variety. A clean, fresh white, it highlights stone fruit flavours – apples and peaches primarily – with mango and papaya lingering in the finish. South American Chardonnays are often over-

Argentinian Chardonnay often gets lost in our fascination for wines made from their red speciality Malbec. Catena Mountain Vines Chardonnay (427856) $23.99 offers up oodles of apple, lemon, lime, mushroom, toast and a hint of honeyed apple blossom linger on the tongue. It shows an intense greenhued colour with yellow notes. Marvelous honey and tropical fruit flavors lead into notes of citrus, pears, peaches, and white flowers and a delicate note of vanilla.

Garden WEEKLY

How to Make a Beautiful Moss Basket By Shauna Lambeth, Campbell River Garden Centre

Materials • 14-inch wire basket frame. • Wire hanger. • Sunshine or MySoil potting soil. • 1/2 bag or moss. • 2 tbsp fish meal. • 2 tbsp 14-14-14 Osmocote slow release fertiliser. Plants for a Sunny basket • 1 Geranium (Zonal) for the top • 3 trailers for the top • 3 fillers for the top • 24 plants (trailers & fillers) for the sides (We can show you what we use) Plants for a Shady Basket • 1 Tuberous Begonia for the top • 3 trailers for the top • 3 fillers for the top • 24 plants (trailers & fillers) for the sides. • (We can show you what we use) Method 1. Set aside your plants for the top. 2. There are twenty-four plants for the sides. Divide up your plants into four groups of six each that will be the four layers of your basket. In each group you will have 3 trailers, like Supertunias, trailing verbenas and bacopa and 3 fillers like fibrous begonias, lobelia and gazanias. 3. I like the plants mixed throughout the basket so I would mix them

for each layer and also vary placement around the basket. 4. Line the bottom of the basket with moss. 5. Fill the basket about 1/4 of the way full with potting soil. 6. Sprinkle ½ tbsp of fish meal. 7. Now begin to plant the bottom layer by passing the roots through the wire and laying the roots onto the potting soil. Do all six plants this way. 8. Add moss to the edges going up the sides about 2 inches. 9. Add more potting soil for the second layer, sprinkle ½ tbsp of fish meal and repeat the planting. 10. Add more potting soil for the third layer, sprinkle ½ tbsp of fish meal and repeat the planting. 11. Add more potting soil for the

fourth layer sprinkle ½ tbsp of fish meal and do the last layer of the sides. 12. When the sides are all planted, you can add enough moss to make a nice crown or top edge for your basket. Then fill with potting soil and put the remainder of the organic fertiliser and the Osmocote/ Nutricote in the soil and gently mix. 13. Now you can plant the top. The Geranium or Tuberous Begonia sits in the middle with the three Bacopa evenly spaced around and the other three plants between the Bacopa. 14. Water the basket with a liquid transplanter fertiliser (or ½ strength 20-20-20 or liquid kelp). Caring For Your Basket The secret to a beautiful basket is good quality plants, planted carefully with regular watering and fertilising. Do not let your basket dry out even once. Feed your basket weekly with a liquid such as Plant Prod 15-30-15 or liquid kelp as the label recommends. Drop by we're always happy to show you our favourite fertilisers for more flowers! Remember not to put your plants out too early; in our area, we usually hang our baskets out around Mother's Day. Enjoy!

Hand-In-Hand Early Years Nature Education Program is coming to Campbell River A nature and playbased, child-led outdoor preschool program is coming to Campbell River this summer. Jarrett Krentzel, program director of HandIn-Hand Early Years Nature Education Program, is announced that his outdoor preschoolaged program is coming to Campbell River. Hand-In-Hand Education started in Cumberland and Comox and appeals to families who recognize the importance of outdoor education for their preschoolaged children. Linda Nagle, Programme Coordinator with the City of Campbell River Parks and Recreation, contacted Krentzel to begin implementing a program in Campbell River. Upon surveying various community parks, it was mutually agreed that the Sportsplex at Willow Point Park and its adjacent Beaver Lodge Forest Lands would be an ideal location for hosting this kind of nature education program. Hand-In-Hand Early

Hand-In-Hand Early Years Natue Education Program is designed to offer a unique early childhood learning experience based in the outdoors.

Years Nature Education Program is an outdoor educational program that is designed to offer a unique early childhood learning experience for children aged 3-5 years. “Our classroom is the natural environment. Our chairs are the logs, our pencils are the sticks and our possibilities are endless!” Krentzel says. The program is offered Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. outside, as this is an environmental educational program. Two educators that will teach a maximum of 16 children facilitate HandIn-Hand Education Program. Expanding on the B.C.

Ministry of Education’s Early Learning Framework, the emphasis of the program will be on a nature, play-based and child-led curriculum and will encourage preschoolers to engage with their environment through art, music, games, physical activities and group learning. The model for the nature educational program is comprised of two components: Ecology and Adventure Education and two stages: SEEDS (3-year olds, Tuesdays and Thursdays, 9 a.m. to 12 p.m., $169/month) and and ROOTS (4-5year olds, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays,

9 a.m. to 12 p.m., $224/ month). Hand-In-Hand Education will be offering a one-week-long Summer Camp Program from Aug. 29 to Sept. 2 and a September to June Program starting this fall. HandIn-Hand Early Years Nature Education Program is currently accepting registration for the September – June program until May 25 and then registration will continue with the Sportplex starting May 27.

trillion of divestment scheduled for 2016. In Carney’s summary of the situation, “The more we invest with foresight, the less we will regret in hindsight.” Laurence Tubiana, France’s climate change ambassador, is clear that the transition away from fossil fuels is inevitable. He expects a “massive acceleration” of the green economy in the next five years. Professor Hans Joachim Schellnhuber, an advisor to the German government and the Vatican, has a more explicit prediction for the fossil fuel industry. “In order to stay below the 2°C [global warming limit set by the international community], or even 3°C, we need to have something really

disruptive, which I would call an induced implosion of the carbon economy over the next 20–30 years. Otherwise

that is destroying the world, or part of an economy that protects creation?” In conclusion, he said, “The age of carbon is over.” Joseph Stiglitz, a SHADES Nobel winning economist, echoes the same thinking regarding fossil fuel corporations. “A mixture of many different changes going on — consumption patterns, civil society, political action — will all be disruptive to the carbon economy.” Meanwhile, when a representative of the giant American coal corporation, Peabody, described global warmwe have no chance of ing as “an environmenavoiding dangerous, tal crisis predicted by perhaps disastrous, cliflawed computer modmate change.” He added, els,” his dismissal now in supporting divestsounds like an absurdly ment, “Do you want to hollow gesture to slow be a part of the economy the hemorrhaging of

imes are changing for the fossil fuel industry — and not for their betterment. Words such as “stranded assets” and “induced implosion” are now being used by internationally important thinkers to describe the business prospects of these corporations. Mark Carney, head of the Bank of England, in addressing an international gathering of insurance executive, noted in July, 2015, that most of the world’s oil, gas and coal reserves would never be used. “Stranded assets” is the term now used popularly to identify this realization. As a result, billions of dollars of investments are now fleeing fossil fuel industries, with $2.6

investments. Tim Flannery, the former head of the Australia Climate Commission and author two important books, The Weather Makers and Atmosphere of Hope, notes that the present pledged greenhouse gas reductions of the United Nations COP 21 Paris Agreement — if the international community meets these pledges — are only sufficient to reduce the global temperature increase to about 2.7°C. All these figures simply mean that the pressure to “strand” fossil fuel reserves will intensify, and that investments will flee from oil, gas and coal corporations as both public

HEROES

HEROES – The staff on and around the second floor of New Horizons Care Facility are really heroes. We want to thank them and compliment them for how they perform their job. They treat the residents with respect and many of them care for the residents as if they were their own family members. It has been a difficult journey to see our parents loose their independence and have to move to a place unknown to them. Every effort seems to have been made to make sure they are cared for through medical intervention, comfort, social interaction with others, exercise, nutrition and just a stop in the hallway to say hello. Thank you for being the kind, caring and thoughtful people you are. – Betty & Brian Christensen HERO – Many thanks to the nice lady in the white pickup that stopped and offered me an umbrella Tuesday when the weather changed suddenly from sunshine to downpour, which I happen to get caught in while shopping since my vehicle was in for servicing. – Ingrid Pitman, the blonde with the newspaper on her head. HEROES – A big Thank you to everyone who supported the Campbell River Literacy Association’s 7th annual Scrabble tournament. Our donors Costco, The Lite Shop, Riptide Marine Pub Grill & Catering, Thongs Jewellery and Repair, Baba Gannouj,

HERO – Brenda at Family Services and Volunteer Drivers. You have been such a help driving me to appointments and around town. The service has been so kind, considerate and accommodating. Please know that your transportation service through the Better At Home program is greatly needed and appreciated by seniors with low income and who do not drive. – Marjorie Beer

Quay West, Wasabiya, Serious Coffee, Quality Foods, Steiner’s Bakery, Thrifty Foods, and our player’s who collected pledges and made this a great day. Your continued support allows us to offer Literacy Services for all ages. – Campbell River Literacy HEROES – The Campbell River Altrusa Club for your continued support of North Island College students. Your support makes a big difference in the lives of students as they pursue their career dreams. Jane Hay, NIC Foundation HEROES – I would like to shout a big Thankyou to the couple who stopped and helped our dad, Jim after he fell on the Hilchey Road sidewalk. After some frantic searching we found him in Emergency smiling away despite a bandaged, cut-up

nose. He had nothing but good things to say about the wonderful assistance he received from you as well as the paramedics. So relieved and thankful. – Chris and Marilyn Gray HEROES – New Horizons has a hero! He goes by the name of John Gibbard. John has been coming and bringing chocolate and oranges to the residents and staff at New Horizons for the last six years! John shows up every morning with a smile on this face and bag of goodies. John has also donated numerous items for the residents including a wheelchair. We the staff at New Horizons’ would like to take this opportunity to thank John for all his kindness and forever giving spirits. Words can not express how Thankful we are! Thank you John. – From the staff and residents at New Horizons.

So relieved and thankful. – Chris and Marilyn Gray HEROES – Our sincere thanks to everyone who attended our Book Sale in Campbell River on APRIL 15 and 16 and for the huge amount of books we received. Special thanks to Claude, the Security Guard at the Tyee Plaza for all his assistance, to the owners of the Tyee Plaza for again allowing us to use their building and to the Campbell River Mirror for our advertising. It was a very successful event due to all the support we received. Again our sincere thanks to everyone. – All the members of Chas Maria Chapter #76, Order of the Eastern Star. HEROES – I would like to express our gratitude to the Oyster River Salmon Enhancement Society, especially to Charlie and Leah. They have helped our school successfully raise hundreds of coho salmon fry over the years. We would not have been so successful without their commitment to the project. They regularly arrive at the school to check on the health of the aquarium tank, bringing in many heavy

3x5 M&M Meats

buckets of fresh Oyster River water. They also help our students learn about the local environment by giving little talks about salmon life cycles and about other river wildlife. The day we release the fry at Bear Creek Park is treated like a celebration and all the students feel proud they have played a part. I am sad that this wonderful partnership will end with the closure of our school. However, I know the members of the Society will keep up the great work they do to help maintain a thriving river environment. I thank them for recognizing the importance of directly involving children in that work. – Marion Waters, Principal, Oyster River Elementary

MANAGING YOUR MONEY Dynamically diversified investing

3x8 Investors Group

As an experienced investor, you know that asset allocation is a vital strategy when it comes to assembling and maintaining your investment portfolio. Asset allocation simply means dividing your assets among the different asset classes – stocks, bonds and cash. A sound asset allocation strategy takes advantage of the longestablished investing fact that there always has been, and always will be, market volatility but over the long term, markets have historically moved higher.

Diversification is an important aspect of asset allocation. A well-diversified portfolio includes a variety of assets across a number of investment categories. The objective is to smooth out risk by having the positive performance of some investments offset the negative performance of other investments. For this strategy to be effective, the assets in a portfolio must not be highly correlated, meaning that they are not expected to typically move in the same direction at the same time. Many Canadian investors believe they are achieving adequate diversification by buying “the market” through an instrument such as an index fund. The problem with this approach is that 66% of the S&P/TSX index weight* is in just three sectors: Financials, Energy and Materials – sectors negatively influenced by the ongoing slowdown in global activity. With these currently highly correlated sectors so dominant, it is difficult to offset losses through investments in relatively small, less-correlated sectors such as Healthcare.

So, achieving true sector diversification within the Canadian market is difficult at best. That is why savvy Canadian investors have traditionally sought diversification by investing in various areas of the world. But rather than taking a do-it-yourself, hit-and-miss approach to diversification, many investors are now choosing a dynamic asset allocation strategy.

•

A basic static asset allocation strategy establishes a strategic mix of holdings across various asset classes and geographic regions, suited to your financial objectives and based on your goals and risk tolerance.

•

By contrast, a dynamic asset allocation strategy is guided by a strategic asset allocation mix, but may adjust target allocations as market conditions change – a continuous optimization that reduces the impact of shorter-term fluctuations.

A Portfolio Fund is a grouping of financial assets held by investors and managed by financial professionals. Certain Portfolio Funds combine a long-term investment management outlook with dynamic asset allocation strategies to adapt to shorter-term market movement with the goal of managing risk and enhancing returns. Any investment plan should be evaluated regularly to ensure it continues to be right for you as your finances and objectives evolve. Your professional advisor can help you craft the best asset allocation and diversification strategy for you and keep it on track, dynamically. *Source: bloombereg

you’re ever in the area. A new Caddy always comes packed with new technology and the XT5 doesn’t disappoint, especially if you splurge for a higher trim version. Even the basic goodie package includes Wi-Fi hot spot, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and a hands-free liftgate. LED headlights, a head-up display, and advanced safety technologies such as adaptive cruise control and lane keeping assist are also available. Unique new tech includes Cadillac’s patented Rear Camera Mirror, which enhances a driver’s rear vision by 300 per cent. A video display, applied over the conventional inside rearview mirror, streams an unobstructed wide-angle view of what’s going on behind. An AJAC Best New Safety Technology winner, it helps solve a driver vision issue that plagues many modern high back design vehicles. The advanced “twin clutch” all-wheel drive system is now capable of transferring up to 100 percent of available torque to either the front or rear axle and/or to either rear wheel, via an electronically controlled rear differential. There’s also a new driver-controlled “disconnect” feature that disables the rear drive unit. Improved fuel efficiency and reduced emissions are the benefits of operating in this front-drive mode. Canadian prices for a Cadillac XT5 will start at $45,100 (FWD) and $52,120 for the all-wheel-drive editions. Expected city/highway fuel economy ratings for FWD editions are 12.1/8.6 L/100km and 12.9/8.9 L/100km for AWD editions and an XT5 runs fine on regular gasoline.

Que Question of the week… Cadillac now benchmarks its products against prestige European autos. Do you believe the current model line-up place the luxury marque an equal footing with the likes of BMW, Mercedes and Audi?

Safety Tip: High-risk driving behaviour, such as speeding, increases your chances of crashing. Almost half of all crashes that result in injury or death involve high-risk driving. Slow down and give yourself extra time to get to your destination so you don’t feel the need to rush.

Audi teams up with Marvel’s Captain America in new movie Audi and Marvel Entertainment have teamed up once again for the release of Marvel’s newest blockbuster, Captain America: Civil War, released last week. The decade-long collaboration continues the Audi brand’s commitment to one of Hollywood’s biggest franchises, with multiple models from the luxury carmaker featuring in the film. An advertising and marketing campaign is now underway following the movie’s recent world Premiere in Los Angeles, attended by actor Chris Evans, who plays the superhero. The Audi ad campaign includes an exclusive digital video called “The Chase,” directed by the film’s directors Anthony and Joe Russo. It previews a pivotal scene featuring the all-new Audi SQ7. “Even as the mighty Avengers break into Civil War, their affinity for best-in class, high performance and state of the art technology in their vehicles ties them together,” said Loren Angelo, Director of Marketing, Audi of America. “Audi is excited to be a mainstay for the Marvel franchise and to support their cast of Super Heroes with a fleet of superior Audi vehicles.” While the Avengers’ universe is fractured as we know it, the car company supports Super Heroes on both sides of the divide with all-new models. Captain America, debuts the SQ7, while his current adversary, Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) finds himself once again behind the wheel of the R8 V10 plus Coupe supercar. “We’re always trying to ride the line in these movies between something that is set in our real, present day world, but at the same time feels special and forward thinking - just a little out of reach. So to be able to work with a company like Audi and have access to their current models and their most advanced designs, it helps us strike that right balance between real world and the future.” says Anthony

in-Residence being a winter program. And like the Writerin-Residence program, “where we try to switch up genres,” Blackburn says, “we could switch up mediums here. One year we target a sculptor, the next we could target a painter, that kind of thing.” There’s currently no timeline on the program, but Blackburn says it’s not out of the realm of possibility to target the first one to take place next year, depending on how the work progresses on the shed from this latest round of funding from the city. “What a great legacy for the arts and culture of our community to have the Writer-in-Residence at the Haig-Brown House at the north end and an Artist-in-Residence down here at the Sybil Andrews property in the Walter Morgan Shed,” Campbell River mayor Andy Adams told the crowd at the Sybil Andrews Day. “That will really book-end our community from an arts and culture perspective, so I think that’s a really great vision.”

The work to restore the Walter Morgan shack– located behind Sybil Andrews’ Cottage in Willow Point –was begun by Campbell River Rotary, and the scope of that work will be expanded thanks to re cent ly-announce d funding from the City of Campbell River. Ken Blackburn, executive director of the Campbell River Arts Council, hopes that the building, once the restoration is finished, will host an Artist-inResidence, similar to the Writer-in-Residence program hosted by the Haig-Brown House on the banks of the Campbell River. “We’re very excited about that building being brought into the very functional fold of some of the plans we have for public workshop space and possible Artist-inResidence space,” Blackburn announced to those gathered at the Sybil Andrews Day celebration at the cottage April 19. The Artist-in-Residence program would

be similar to the HaigBrown Writer-in-Residence program in that it will be a prestigious, competitive grant that will see a working Canadian artist relocate to Campbell River for a period of time, put on public workshops and engage the community. It will be different in that it won’t be a “live-in” kind of situation, just due to the building itself. “It’ll be a working studio residency,” Blackburn says, “but the artist would have to be billeted or put up somewhere, which isn’t ideal, but it’s not uncommon, either.” The idea, Blackburn says, would be to divide the Walter Morgan Shed into three sections: one for Arts Council storage (its current use), one for the Artist-in-Residence to work in, and a third where the public would come for workshops, one-on-one consultations between artists or other public engagement activities. The artist residency could compliment the Haig-Brown program in that it would likely be a spring/summer/fall residency, with the Writer-

Prospective Artist-in-Residence program would ‘book-end’ Campbell River arts and culture

Firefighter for a day

Pictured clockwise from above, firefighters rescue a ‘victim’ of a high impact car crash as part of a simulation Saturday during the downtown Fire Hall’s open house. Firefighter Kyle Welsh shows Natalie Rasmus, 5, the ropes as she gets a turn with the fire hose. Koah Spiers, 3, tries out the Jaws of Life with a little help from firefighter Cameron Trace, right. Informative displays with information on hazardous materials response, confined space rescue, the fire safety house and a fire and life safety booth as well as tours of the fire dispatch centre were also featured as part of the No.1 Fire Hall’s open house.
