Sentence: Fentanyl crisis taken into consideration
www.CampbellRiverMirror.com www.CampbellRiverMirror.com
Continued from Pg. 1
“All of the males arrested are from the Lower Mainland and their presence here was solely for the purposes of drug trafficking,” Const. Clark said at the time. “Reducing the impact of drugs on our community is one of our detachment’s priorities.” Judge Flewelling said in her Sept. 23 judgement that Derycke was pulled over for a traffic stop after cutting the corner at an intersection during a left turn. The RCMP officer saw Derycke throw three plastic baggies out the passenger window onto the ground. The officer asked Derycke to step out of the vehicle and saw a number of $50 and $20 bills fall off the driver’s seat. Derycke was searched and found to have $180 in cash. The three baggies were recovered and contained 39 spitballs found to contain heroin, fentanyl, cocaine resin and acetyl fentanyl. Derycke’s hotel was searched and the police found a cell phone and a key card for a room at the Coast Discovery Inn. A number of calls came in on the cell phone consistent with a dial-a-dope operation. While the police were in the room, a call came in with the caller ask-
ing if the listener could “spare a single of fentanyl for $20.” Another caller said, “I’ve got a sale for you – 140 hard and 60 soft.” Judge Flewelling said she’s been advised that “hard” refers to crack cocaine and “soft” refers to cocaine. Police then searched the vehicle Derycke was in but was registered to his girlfriend, Maria Love. That search resulted in the seizure of more cash, marijuana, a 16-inch knife and a crowbar. The car was seized and a search of the hotel room turned up more money and drug paraphernalia. In total, from the car and the hotel room, the police seized 9.31 grams of heroin, more than 23 grams of cocaine, six bags of marijuana, mushrooms, prescription bottles with various pills and, in one case, three morphine pills. The police also located a nalozone kit which is used in the event of an overdose. Derycke, meanwhile, suffered from heroin addiction himself and at the time of the arrest, was going through heroin withdrawal. After he gave his statement at the Campbell River RCMP detachment he requested medical assistance and was taken to emergency at Campbell River Hospital.

After treatment, he was being escorted back to the RCMP cruiser to be taken back to the detachment when he pulled away from the Mountie and took off. He was found four minutes later and further charged with escaping from lawful custody. Derycke was paid to come to Campbell River from Grande Prairie, Alberta. When asked why Campbell River, Judge Flewelling said that Derycke said, “They wanted me here…this town makes money…” “This is an organized operation,” the judge said. The judge described Derycke as a “lower level or middle level trafficker in a sophisticated operation.” Derycke was sentenced to one year in jail for the trafficking charge plus 30 days for escaping lawful custody. He was given credit at 1.5-to-one for pre-sentence custody of 126 days plus 63 days enhanced credit for a total of 189 days, the judge said. That means 176 new days to serve in custody. For the offence of driving while prohibited, he was fined $500 and given
a one-year driving prohibition. Derycke’s sentence was influenced by the current fentanyl overdose crisis and the judge took it into consideration when handing down Derycke’s sentence. The judge also said that the sentence should reflect that this is a professional drug operation and not the actions of a street level drug addict. Derycke was selling drugs for profit and although an addict himself and in need of the money to buy the drugs to fuel his habit, he was also “motivated by a desire to make money and the need to be somebody, to feel important,” Judge Flewelling said. “The current fentanyl crisis is so well known that Mr. Derycke must have known that there was, at minimum, a risk that the drugs he was selling were laced with fentanyl,” Judge Flewelling said. The judge said courts across the country have made many references over the years to the “scourge” of hard drugs such as heroin and cocaine and the human cost and devastation that those drugs cause. “In determining where
in the range of a fit sentence Mr. Derycke would fall,” Judge Flewelling said. “I am entitled to consider the dramatic rise in fentanyl-related overdose deaths and the public health emergency that has been declared in British Columbia and other provinces. “In the context of this case, the sentencing objectives of general and specific deterrence must be given primary consid-
expect to be sentenced to a period of incarceration, even for a first offence, like in Derycke’s case. When a trafficker is a part of an organized and sophisticated operation, as opposed to an addict selling small quantities of drugs at the street level purely to support his or her own addiction, the sentence should be adjusted upwards to reflect the need for general deterrence, the judge said.

eration and a clear message sent that drug traffickers cannot be willfully blind to the nature and consequences of the drugs they are selling. “I am also of the view that a sentence in a smaller community such as Campbell River has a greater impact in deterring others who are recruited by drug trafficking operations to sell drugs here.” The judge said that drug traffickers can

Women of all ages gathered at the Women’s Resource Centre on Wednesday afternoon to march in protest of violence.
Women walk to Take Back the Night JOCELYN DOLL

“No matter what we wear, no matter where we go, yes means yes and no means no.” A group of around 20 women marched through downtown on Wednesday afternoon to raise awareness of violence in the community, not only against women but against everyone. As a registered part of the Take Back the Night movement, the Campbell River Women’s Resource
Centre will be holding Take Back the Night walks twice a year, in the Spring and the Fall. The message, is that people have the right to move freely in their communities, day and night, without fear or threat of harassment, violence and sexual assault. That threat is very real in Campbell River, especially for vulnerable populations. Jodi Boyd, executive director of the women’s resource centre, said in the past six months she has talked
to multiple homeless women who have been sexually assaulted. She said they are unable to identify their attackers because of the darkness and they will not report the violence to the police. T he wome n w ho marched gathered afterwards in the resource centre’s Rose Harbour Common Room. Though the event called for action to change society’s attitudes towards violence, much of the conversation cen-
tred around protecting themselves. One woman said she no longer walks at night because she feels unsafe. Others talked about carrying pepper spray or keys in their fists. There was discussion about wearing nail polish that detects drugs in drinks and other technologies that are making it easier for women to protect themselves. But everyone agreed, there is a long way to go. “No more silence, end the violence.”

Another said caregiving is definitely a two-way relationship: “I always learn from the youth and they keep me young.” Youth in John Howard programs appreciate that their caregivers make them feel like part of the family. “I feel welcome in their home.

John Howard is open to all types of carehomes – couples, families with children, singles, and homes from diverse backgrounds. Caregivers can work full time or in a respite capacity.

Traffic lights, bus stops and boat ramp among councillor ‘wish lists’

CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
A pre-budget city staff report reveals city councillors have lengthy wish lists that include things like new and improved traffic lights, new bus stops and an upgrade for the Big Rock boat ramp. As part of council’s 2017 budget planning process, the mayor and councillors put forward a list of 39 projects they would like to see come to fruition. The projects, also known as Service Level Change Requests, would be additions to the base operating budgets. Myriah Foort, the city’s finance manager, said in looking at council’s requests that city staff saw a trend emerge. The majority – 28 in total – of the requests were considered capital projects, while eight were operating projects and three were considered ongoing increases to service levels. The 28 capital projects can be further broken down, with seven relating to downtown revitalization, 10 classified as roads and transportation upgrades and the remaining 11 considered community enhancements. Highlights of SLCRs put forward n New street lights at 10th Avenue and Alder (Coun. Charlie Cornfield) n Cut down and replace problem trees on Shoppers Row (Mayor Andy Adams) n Include left turn arrows on Shoppers Row and St. Ann’s traffic lights as well as those at Dogwood and 13th Avenue (Coun. Michele Babchuk)

time tax increases. “This is achievable by carving out specified reserves and funding models including the capital net funding model to ensure funds are set aside for each purpose, and that all funding available is utilized in the most efficient manner,” Foort wrote in a report to council. In the meantime, all of the projects put forward have been considered by council and given a priority ranking. Council, during its financial planning sessions in early December, will determine which items will actually make it into the financial plan. Foort said that city staff are following a similar process in coming up with a short list of six-to-eight capital or new service level business cases that will be presented to council for consideration at a meeting scheduled for Nov. 8. Budget planning meetings to form the city’s next financial plan are scheduled one month after that, on Dec. 5, 6 and 7 between 9:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. at City Hall.

Remember two years ago when B.C. Liberal minister Peter Fassbender took on the B.C. Teachers’ Federation? The province weathered its longest-ever public school strike, five weeks of full-scale shutdown from disrupted graduation to cancelled fall classes, with the B.C. government dividing up the salary savings and sending cheques to thousands of parents. The province’s most militant union was wrestled to the ground, its strike fund exhausted, and the BCTF signed a five-year agreement with economic growth sharing similar to all the other provincial government unions. Premier Christy Clark then assigned Fassbender a new job: do the same thing with municipalities. It started last year, when a provincially commissioned study on municipal wages was leaked just as mayors and councillors from around the province gathered in Whistler for the annual Union of B.C. Municipalities convention. The study showed that municipal staff wage increases
RACHAEL KRISTI KEVIN BECKLEY PELLEGRIN MCKINNON
MICHELLE HUELLER
had been running at about twice the rate of provincial wage settlements, as the province came out of a recession-driven wage freeze and into a period of slow economic growth. NDP leader John Ho r g a n a n d the Canadian Union of Public Employees dismissed the study as full of holes, partly because left-leaning cities refused to supply the data. It seems some municipalities, particularly in Metro Vancouver, are not keen to have Big Brother get involved in their contract negotiations. At this year’s UBCM convention in Victoria, Fassbender let it be known that a review of municipal compensation is underway. That means not only CUPE agreements, but executive pay and even the rich arbitrated settlements handed

out to municipal police and firefighters. I asked Fassbender about the plan after his speech Friday, and he was the smooth salesman. He emphasized, as Finance Minister Mike de Jong did last year, that there is no legislative hammer hidden behind his back. At least not at the moment. “I’ve had a number of good discussions with mayors as I’ve traveled around the province who clearly recognized one of their biggest cost drivers is compensation, and they are more than willing to talk about it,” Fassbender said. “It takes their provincial organization, I think ideally you have UBCM and all of its members, and I emphasize all of its members, willing to sit down and start that conversation.” The likelihood of that appears to be somewhere between slim and none. Just before Fass-

Getting the word out
Big Brother’s coming to city hall VIEWS
Put away for a moment any disdain you have for politicians. As things start to heat up for the May, 2017 provincial election, we thought we’d take a different, perhaps unpopular view today about those who both seek and serve as elected representatives. We are often the first to criticize politicians, so this semi-tribute isn’t in our comfort zone either. Most of the people who are quick to criticize those who seek elected office have never stood for office themselves. Just putting your name out there takes guts. Then there’s the job interview, the campaign. When someone puts their name on a ballot, both the public and the media believe these people are now fair game to call at any time with any question. The candidate who ignores the questioning does so at his/ her peril. Go through all this and more and then, after you find out if you get the job, the scrutiny gets even worse. Some people seem to think it’s okay to call politicians nasty names or make all kinds of wild accusations on social media. Having to weather that kind of garbage should not be on anyone’s job description. To suggest politicians should expect disrespectful scorn because they are paid with taxpayer money is also unfair. A municipal councillor around here makes around $23,000/year while last year the mayor earned more than $60,000. A provincial cabinet minister makes around $150,000. City CAOs make close to that or more. Regardless, what a person makes does not automatically open them up for hateful abuse. If you believe we need politicians and experienced/ educated bureaucrats to run our governments, then you must also expect to pay them. Comparisons to what a person on disability or social assistance gets a month (and they get way less than what’s reasonable, we understand that) to what a politician is paid a month are not arguments with much meat or traction or relevance. Try this the next time you have contact with candidate or politician: say thanks. -Black Press

bender’s speech, local government leaders debated a resolution dealing with the province’s last effort to help them run their affairs, the Auditor General for Local Government. The upshot of that was similar to last year: Dear Minister Fassbender, put this thing where the sun don’t shine. Several mayors and councillors suggested the UBCM should lift its ban on cooperating with the auditor, but in the end the majority sided with Invermere Mayor Gerry Taft, who pointed out the province’s new municipal auditor spends $5 million a year to find ways for communities to cut costs. The only way to get rid of it is to change the provincial government next year, Taft said. So this will be one of the showdown issues in the next provincial election: strong fiscal discipline vs. meddling in the affairs of local governments. It will inspire CUPE and other unions as they ramp up their third-party advertising campaigns next spring. tfletcher@blackpress.ca Twitter: @tomfletcherbc

Strathcona Regional District Director Jim Abram has been reelected to the executive of the Union of BC Municipalities (UBCM). Abram, director for electoral Area C, was up against eight other nominees from across B.C. vying to fill five seats. The election took place during last week’s UBCM convention – an annual gathering of local government officials which, this year, took place in Victoria. “I was very, very fortunate,” Abram said. “It took five days of campaigning and trying to convince people that I was a good person to elect. Now I’m back on and I will be able to partake in all the good things UBCM will do in the next year, which is an election year.” Abram, who will serve as a director-at-large, said it will be an important year for the executive which is tasked with ensuring the wishes of the UBCM membership are parlayed to the next provincial government.
Abram, who was first elected to local government in 1988, served the past year on the UBCM executive after running successfully in September of 2015. It was a comeback of sorts for Abram who had served a 10-year stint on the executive up until 2001. From 2000-2001 he served as president. Abram said he was pleased to secure his spot on the executive for at least one more year. “I feel really honoured,” said Abram, noting roughly 1,500 delegates attended the UBCM convention and put in a vote. “I feel there’s a lot more work ahead of me but it’s worth it.” UBCM is the only province-wide lobby organization for local governments to discuss common issues and advocate various positions to the provincial and federal governments. Abram said that being on the executive affords him the opportunity to put forward issues of local concern at the UBCM table and to the province. “It’s a really good thing

Sewer services coming to Quadra Islanders next year KRISTEN DOUGLAS
CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Quadra Islanders who said ‘yes’ to sewers two years ago could get their properties hooked up to the service as early as next summer. That’s because the Quathiaski Cove sewer project is one of 35 local government infrastructure projects awarded funding under a brandnew federal/provincial grant program. Dave Leitch, CAO of
the regional district, said that will allow staff to issue a Request for Proposal – likely in early December – to find a contractor to undertake construction of the project which will add roughly 45 to 47 new Quathiaski Cove properties to the existing sewer system. Leitch said the funding, which is coming out of the new Clean Water and Wastewater Fund, is more than what the regional district
had applied for in April under the New Building Canada grant fund. “It’s fantastic,” Leitch said. “We ac tually received more than we expected. It’s a huge bonus and a great financial advantage.” The funding came in higher than expected thanks to the federal government following through on a commitment to help local governments struggling to deal with aging infrastructure.

3.5 ACRE WATERFRONT SITE TASK FORCE Help Campbell River make the most of a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and be part of creating a spectacular new area in the heart of Campbell River.
Instead of the usual one-third from each of the federal, provincial and local governments, under the new program, the federal government will put up 50 per cent of project costs, and with the provincial government retaining its commitment of 33 per cent, that leaves local governments with only 17 per cent of the costs. As a member of the Union of British Columbia Municipalities executive, Quadra Island Director Jim Abram said he and his fellow directors had been pushing the federal government to up the ante. Abram said he was “thrilled” when the federal Liberals announced that not only were they going to up their contribution, but that the Quathiaski Cove sewer project would be one of the first to benefit from the new criteria. “I am just so totally excited,” Abram said.
that adding additional properties onto the system will lower the costs as they will share in the cost of operating and maintaining the system through user fees. The expansion has – Jim Abram, been on the books for Quadra Island two years after Quadra Director Islanders gave their approval through a referendum in July, 2014. The regional district ran into “The first thing I said problems, however, earwhen I found out was lier this year when con‘yahoo.’ It’s unreal.” struction bids came in It’s been a long time over $900,000 – greater coming for Abram who than the regional dishas been trying to get the trict’s budget. sewer system expanded Under the new funding on Quadra for seven program, though, Abram years and in the process, said the regional district lower the cost for those will save “a quarter of a already on the system. million dollars of local Residential basic rates money.” have soared from $250 in Leitch confirmed that 1999 to $510 in 2015.

remaining $232,705. Abram said it also means the regional district won’t have to spend the $450,000 to $500,000 worth of Gas Tax funds that were pegged for the sewer project in an effort to keep property owners’ costs down. “Now that we don’t have to use that money, it will go back into the bank and be available to us for all the other wonderful things we want to do on Quadra Island,” Abram said. “This is phenomenal news,” he added. “It’s a big deal to an electoral area like mine. I’m really, really pleased.” Leitch said he expects that if the Request for Proposals is successful that construction of the sewer expansion could begin in February or March of next year, which means property owners could potentially hook up to the sewer system by summer or fall of 2017.

Strathcona Gardens Commission expedites improvement study KRISTEN DOUGLAS
CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
A roughly $21.8 million renovation of Strathcona Gardens is being expedited. The Strathcona Gardens Commission is moving forward on an improvement project that may involve a new wellness centre with a therapy pool and/or expanded seating at Rod Brind’Amour Arena. A contractor is expected to be hired this month to deliver a feasibility study that will include a business case and determine the best way to move forward on the future of the recreation complex. Victoria Smith, special projects and sustainability manager for the Strathcona Regional District, said the deadline for completion of that study has been bumped up by the Strathcona Gardens Commission. “In response to the commission’s desire to see this work delivered
earlier than the original deadline of December, 2017, the feasibility study completion date has been moved forward,” Smith wrote in a report to the commission. “This will enable additional work to be undertaken in the laterhalf of the year provided that the necessary budget is made available.” The Strathcona Gardens Commission budgeted $20,000 in 2016 and $25,000 in 2017 for the feasibility study and $10,450 in 2016 for condition assessments. Such an assessment was carried out on Strathcona Gardens in August, with particular emphasis on examining the pool basin. The results of that assessment are expected to be presented to the Strathcona Gardens Commission at its Oct. 12 meeting. It will tie into a Needs Assessment study conducted last year which determined that an aging Strathcona Gardens is unable to meet the needs

of the community, now and into the future. To try and address that issue, consultant GDH Solutions was hired by the Strathcona Regional District to create concept designs. The company put forward two options. The first proposes to build a wellness centre that would include a fitness and exercise room, along with the therapy pool, and a new welcome centre for reception and information. The plan also includes the addition of multipurpose rooms, improved and expanded pool change rooms, i nc re a s e d pro g r am options and improved access to both upstairs and downstairs levels at Strathcona Gardens. The second concept involves a rebuild of Rod Brind’Amour Arena, new and improved change rooms, as well as new seating at the arena. Both would satisfy at least some of the input gathered through a community survey in which Campbell River and Area D residents expressed a desire for better arena change rooms, improved spectator seating at Rod Brind’Amour Arena, another sheet of ice,
and dryland training areas. Survey respondents also identified a need for more lanes and a larger deck at the main pool, a bigger men’s change room, more family change rooms, more amenities at the pool, as well as more pool time. The multi-year project will require significant funding to undertake. During budget planning earlier this year, the Strathcona Regional District board approved a funding plan that will see Campbell River taxpayers pay $84.02 per $100,000 residential assessment for the next seven years in order to generate $1.45 million annually for the project. The regional district is also looking for grant opportunities for matching funds. “We are committed to finding the best way forward to manage existing funds and leverage dollars from other sources while minimizing the tax impact on citizens,” Michele Babchuk, chair of the Strathcona Gardens Commission, said in July. “There is still much work to be done before we will have a clear picture of what lies ahead.”

Riverites’ generosity reaches Cambodia and Vietnam JASMINE MACGREGOR CARIHI MIRROR
Thanh Tazumi will be embarking on her latest humanitarian trip to Cambodia and Vietnam this December along with a small team of young volunteers from Campbell River, including two Grade 12 students from Carihi. In Cambodia, the team will be working with children in the villages of Kratie and Snoul before travelling to Vietnam to distribute pediatric wheelchairs with Hope Haven International in the cities of Hai Phong and Ha Nam. Thanh Tazumi, the leader of the group, is a former Vietnamese refugee. “I wanted to look for opportunities to help kids who are now in the same place where I was over 30 years ago,” she said. Tazumi spent a por-
tion of her childhood in a refugee camp in Hong Kong, after fleeing North Vietnam with her family in the early 1980s. There, her life was touched by the help of international volunteers. “I had a really good experience with missionaries who came in to help us.” Tazumi said. After spending three years in Hong Kong, her family was accepted as refugees by the Canadian government. In 2008 Tazumi reconnected with Joan Wise, one of the missionaries from Tazumi’s former life and got involved with Wise’s non-profit organization We Love Kids. T h e or g an i z at i on works to provide educational services to Vietnamese and Cambodian children in hopes of preventing human trafficking. “It was a time that I felt like it was coming full circle,” Tazumi said. “I

started to do garage sales and bottle drives and that summer we raised about $800 to support some kids to go to school.” Last year, she was part of a larger fundraiser that raised $10,000 for We Love Kids. This past February and March Tazumi played a key role in the Rotary Club’s wheelchair distribution in Vietnam. While overseas, she got together with Wise in Cambodia and met some of the children she
had sponsored. “We were only there for two days,” Tazumi said. “I visited Snoul and saw their poor water situation and I just felt like I had to something about it. So that leads to this next trip.” The volunteer team will be working alongside We Love Kids in Cambodia organizing day camps for children in Kratie and Snoul and helping with their Christmas program. In Snoul, Tazumi will be assessing the potential for a Rotary-sponsored irrigation project. “[The rest of the team] will do a day of soccer in Snoul, while I go and do surveys, focus groups and meetings with the villagers—men and women—to find out what their needs are,” she said. Tazumi is excited to be travelling with such an enthusiastic group of people.

“I’ll be travelling with a young group of people that I know and have watched grow up,” she said. “We live in a country with such abundance; we’re an affluent country. We have so many privileges and it’s a wonderful thing. It’s a blessing, really. I want [them] to see how other people
live and I’m excited to see what that means to [them] in terms of how [they] see the world.” The group will be hosting a coffee house fundraiser on Friday, Oct. 14th at 7 p.m. at the Campbell River Vineyard Church. There will be live music by local performers with a silent
and live auction. “Campbell River is an extremely generous community,” said Tazumi. “The community has supported us so much in the past and I feel blessed to be a part of it. We’ll be taking the spirit of generosity that’s in Campbell River over to Cambodia and Vietnam with us.”
because they feel it is a safe place to go which allows them to be themselves as well as mingle with other students. “I wanted a place where I can feel safe and be respected,” said Grade 9 student Mattie Omeré. “I feel like it’s a really good thing for the community and everyone outside of it,” Omeré added. Omeré said they will definitely be returning to the QSA next Monday.
A group of six students sat in for the first meeting, which is the usual turnout for the club. One student was from Carihi, another from Robron and the other four go to Timberline. The club focuses on both fun activities and games but also touches base on serious topics and issues affecting the LGBTQ+ community. Sharene Zemanek, organizes and supervises the meetings.
“I would much rather have it driven by youth than driven by me,” she said. Ecole Phoenix Middle School also has a QSA group at their school. Phoenix’s QSA has joined Timberline’s QSA group on one occasion last school year to have a more multi-generational group discussion. Zemanek said she has thought about doing it on a more regular basis for the future.

Jalen Price Team BC bound A Campbell River teen has been recruited to play for Team BC. Price, a 15-year-old First Nations youth from Wei Wai Kum First Nation, is attending his second year at the Delta Hockey Academy. Price played in the Campbell River Minor Hockey Association (CRMHA) as a Tyee for the first four years of his rep hockey career before making the move in his second year of bantam to the Delta Hockey Academy. In Price’s first year at Delta Hockey Academy he made a name for himself playing on the Bantam Prep team in the CSSHL – one of the most difficult leagues to play in – being the top point getter on the Bantam Prep team in 25 games with 15 goals and 18 assists for 33 points. This 2016/17 season, Price is playing on the Delta Hockey Academy Midget Prep team and is the only 2001 born player on the team. He has made a great start with two goals and one assist in the first three games of the season. Price entered the WHL Bantam Draft this past May and he went in the third round, 63rd overall to the Medicine Hat Tigers. On July 20, the Tigers signed Price to a standard WHL player agreement and he attended the Tigers training camp at the end of August. After training camp he was asked to stay and practice with the team for the rest of week. He gained valuable extra ice training

Price’s latest accomplishment was making the final roster for the 2016 Male U16 Team BC. He was one of four 2001 born players from
Campbell River invited to the 2016 U16 BC Cup in Salmon Arm on April 20– 24. Players were then selected based on per-
formance at U16 BC Cup and divided into two teams to attend the 2016 Provincial Camp at Shawinigan Lake on July 13-17. They then picked the top 20 players from that camp for Team BC which was announced on Oct. 4 and Price was the only one from Campbell River to make the Provincial Camp in Shawinigan Lake and one of three from the Island to make the final roster for Team BC. Team BC will be travelling to Calgary on Oct. 16 for the 2016 Western Canada Challenge Cup, which starts with the team’s first game on Oct. 19 against Team Manitoba. The Western Canada U16 Challenge Cup features the highest rated players in the U16 age category representing the four western provinces of Alberta, B.C., Manitoba and Saskatchewan. “I am very excited and honoured to represent B.C. at the U16 Western Canada Challenge Cup,” Price said. “I would like to thank my family for making the sacrifices they have made the past couple of years that have allowed me follow my dreams of playing professional hockey. I would like to thank my past coaches from CRMHA for the first few years of my hockey career for giving me a mould to be a focused, determined hard worker on and off the ice. “I will do Campbell River proud representing Team BC.”

“Swing slowly” works for those trying to hit the ball extremely short distances. Certainly “swing fast” can provide interesting results, but my feeling is that we are trying to hit the ball as far as possible, accurately. Learning how to produce an efficient movement, in balance, that returns the centre of the clubface to the ball at the maximum speed is always the goal. In the week that we lost the legendary Arnold Palmer it is worth remembering a sage piece of advice fromThe King -SWING YOUR SWING.

Being a cyclist I hope and pray every year for a dry winter. Just enough precipitation at night so the mountain gets snow and the trails are moist enough to stay tacky, but that’s it. The rest of the time I want sun, and 15 degrees, please. Considering we already have nice mild weather and can ride all year long, is this too much to ask? Sadly, no matter how much I want it, we don’t get to pick our weather and one reason we have lush forests and fantastic trails is because it rains here “periodically.” If we were fair weather riders we would miss out on a lot of great riding. Yes, it takes a ride or two to get used to the wet conditions and we often dream of drier rides, but we should consider ourselves lucky to have such
Opinion amazing riding throughout the fall and winter on the west coast. I remember back in the ’90s when the technology was horrible and winter riding was a chore. We still did it, but I don’t remember ever enjoying it. The lights of the day were about as good as riding with a candle taped to your handle
bars and winter clothing wasn’t much better than wearing a garbage bag; in fact, one of my buddies chose that option due to poor finances (he was really wet and really sweaty, and he sounded like a flag in a wind storm every time we went down hill). As time passed, the technology improved slowly, lights got a little brighter and rain gear started to breathe a bit, but it was still limiting. Wet winter rides were still generally cut short due to shivering, and night rides were a quick rip at best to avoid the blackout when the batteries all died after just one hour. I used to carry spare batteries in my bag just in case, but I think my bag weighed in around 40 pounds, so that was short lived. These days though I

look forward to winter riding. The weather has not dried out, but the equipment has improved drastically. Winter riding no longer feels like a chore, but just another season of great riding. The night riding lights run for hours and give so much visibility that you can ride as fast as you like without penalty. The rain gear has become so light weight that you barely realize you’re wearing it, and with the cold weather gloves and water proof boots you will be as warm and comfortable at the end of your ride as you were at the start! Throw on some sticky rubber winter tires, light weight fenders that actually stay in place and adjust your suspension set up, and you can tackle any trail you want this winter. Don’t waste your winter dreaming of riding your bike in the spring or cutting head holes into your garbage bags; drop into Swicked and ask about our loaner lights and then join us on our weekly group rides.

The Browns Bay Chum Derby is the next get together and anglers come and fish for Chum from all over the Island and from the mainland. The Derby is Friday, Oct. 14 to Sunday the 16th and I will be out on the Sunday afternoon to catch the Derby action as salmon is brought in to the weigh scales and the winners announced. Even if you don’t fish, the best time to watch the action is on the Sunday afternoon when the prize money is awarded along with the various prize draws. In general, anglers from Port Hardy to Courtney are experiencing fair to slow catch reports but it seems that the majority are getting a fair share of mostly wild coho which are released. In various areas in Campbell River you will see boats fishing close to the shoreline and they are targeting coho using light tackle and are fishing close to the
Mid Island
in the past few weeks and the months of May and October can be very good if you can get off the shore and find at least 20 feet of water. In deeper lakes fish have been showing in 50 feet of water. Casting out a fly on certain days and working the shoreline can be very good when the bite is on and last Sunday the bite was on around 3 p.m. and it lasted for about three hours.
The bulk of local salmon anglers are out hunting and have packed up their fishing gear and boats and will take the fall and winter off.

On the fly, many are fishing the shoreline anywhere from Rotary Park or even a more productive area is the beach starting at Salmon Point and wading out in shallow water all the way up to the Oyster River. Last week on my weekly trip to Sayward, the campers who are still in the area are still fishing and reports are slow fishing Trout fishing has been very good
My fly of choice in the past month has been the Hares Ear Nymph tied on a number 12 hook but I switched over to the Bibio fly and the number of hits were coming fast and furious and trout 14 inches were brought to the boat.

Campbell River Mirror staff are putting their best...feet (?) forward adorned with eye-catching Hallowee-themed socks which can be bought at the local McDonald’s restaurants during October. The money will be donated to Ronald McDonald House.
Sock it to cancer in Socktober
McDonald’s Restaurants in Campbell River are supporting sick children and their families from Campbell River and across BC who need to stay in Vancouver while seeking lifesaving medical treatment. You are invited to help
make a difference by stopping by any McDonald’s Restaurant in Campbell River during “Socktober” and buying a pair of “Spooktacular” Halloween socks for only $5! All proceeds will be donated to the Ronald McDonald House BC

When I Look at My Son with Down Syndrome Do you ever have those moments that take your breath away — in a good way? An intense and almost overwhelming surge of emotion. Perhaps a first kiss? Or seeing your newborn baby for the first time? I had one of these moments today. It happened when I was looking at my 7-month-old son, Augie. It wasn’t the first time I felt intense emotions while looking at his sweet face and into his dark blue eyes. But today, it felt like a culmination of emotion from the last seven months. The ups and downs that have marked the start of his journey — our journey. From ER visits, extended hospital stays, surgeries, sickness to snuggles, gummy smiles, giggles and achieving milestones. With these emotions came a strong desire to capture this moment forever. To take all the words and emotions out of my head and onto paper. To have something that can always remind me of my feelings in the first year of being Augie’s mom. And so I wrote it all down. What I see. What I wonder. What I hope for. What I know. And what I feel. All when I look at this precious boy — my son — with Down syndrome. When I look at you… I see dark blue eyes so inquisitive and expressive. I see the sweetest button nose where I love to give Eskimo kisses. I see soft baby hair that sticks up everywhere. Your signature look, I call it. I see chubby cheeks, great for Momma’s smooches. I see a scar down your chest from open-heart surgery. Proof that you are strong. A gentle warrior, I say. I see wiggling arms reaching for, playing with and exploring the world around you. I see strong legs, kicking, bearing weight and pushing yourself over. Legs that will someday run and climb. I see
ters most. In Campbell River, local McDonald’s owner/operators Jens and Mary Rolinski and their crew have raised over $25,000 to benefit Ronald McDonald House BC and Yukon and they have pledged to keep fundraising.

two tiny feet and 10 tiny toes that I know are a bit ticklish. I see your hands brought together and your fingers intertwined, almost like you are praying. And, I see a smile that can warm my heart like nothing else. I see beauty. Pure and perfect. When I look at you… I wonder what you are thinking. I wonder if you know how much you are loved. I wonder what tomorrow will bring and then remind myself that today is what matters. I wonder if I’m doing all the right things for you. I wonder how I got so lucky to be your mom. And, I wonder if I’m a good enough mom for you.

When I look at you … I feel protective. I feel love, deep and true. I feel peace. I feel joy. And, I feel honored to by your mom. I love everything about you. More than I can ever put into words.
When I look at you… I hope you reach for the stars. I hope you accomplish your dreams. I hope you fall in love. I hope you are kind and accepting of all people. I hope those same people accept you just as you are. I hope you find joy in all things. And, I hope I never lose you. When I look at you… I know you will do great things. I know you have already changed me for the better. And will continue to do so. I know you will make me proud. You already have. I know we are a team. And, I know we will learn together. I know I will always be by your side, until you tell me otherwise. I also know this will happen, someday.

Stevie Turley (far right) and her team from La Tee Da sort out the almost $15,000 worth of lingerie gathered to donate to the women of Campbell River and North Island Transition Society’s Ann Elmore House and Rose Harbour facilities.
Bra fit clinic a welcome addition La Tee Da’s annual lingerie drive
R
epeating a good deed is noble, but improving on that good deed is even better. Last year, Stevie Turley of La Tee Da Lingerie Boutique in downtown Campbell River came up with the idea of helping women in need in the Campbell River and North Island Transition Society’s Ann Elmore and Rose Harbour Houses by collecting gently used lingerie, sleepwear and robes. This had never been done before in Campbell River and the drive was immensely successful. For the second annual drive this year, Turley wanted to include two innovations to augment the success of last year’s drive. Firstly, she approached some of her lingerie suppliers to see if they would donate some bras and panties. “We have worked with these sales reps and companies for almost ten years” said Turley. “During that time, you
build a very close, lasting business and personal relationship with them. When we put the call out to six of our top lingerie suppliers, they responded by donating almost $15,000 worth of lingerie for our drive.” So, as of the end of September, La Tee Da has collected almost 1,000 pieces of lingerie, sleepwear, robes and other clothing items from both their customers and their suppliers. “This exceeded our wildest expectations” Turley said. Another change to this year’s campaign came as a result of Turley and her staff noting the positive impact a well fitted bra has on their customers, not just physically but emotionally. So this year, instead of just dropping off a box of donated bras, the staff of La Tee Da held a bra fitting clinic at Rose Harbour House specifically for the residents of both Ann Elmore and Rose Harbour Houses. “Being fitted into a
IT’S AMAZING WHAT 2x3 A COOKIE CAN DO!
properly fitting bra should never be considered to be a luxury, it should be elemental to all women” said Turley. “We all take for granted getting up in the morning and putting on clean bra and panties that fit. That is not an option for many women who have left violent situations with nothing or are homeless. By offering a proper bra fitting with the donations we hope the women have a little more confidence and that we show them some compassion without judgement.” “I have always worn a maternity bra. This is the first time I’ve had a bra that fit,” shared one
of the many recipients of this great event. CRNITS staff all shared how wonderful the response was. “All those who participated felt the genuine caring and attentiveness from Stevie and her crew. The evening was a complete success with our clients feeling uplifted, empowered and happy. Thank you to the La Tee Da crew. We look forward to making this an annual event,” said Susan Trayler, Housing Manager. Will there be further improvements to next year’s drive? “We have 10 months to mull that question over” Turley said.

GEORGE ANTHONY CRAWSHAW George Anthony Crawshaw, 74, of Quadra Island, passed away September 18, 2016 in his home surrounded by family. George was born in Vancouver, BC to Raymond and Virginia Crawshaw on June 22,1942. He went to high school at North Vancouver Secondary and graduated in 1959. He went on to earn his helicopter engineer's ticket at BCIT and found one of the only two jobs available to helicopter engineers at Okanagan Helicopters in 1963. He worked as an engineer for 40 years, with 20 years as a base manager. His love of adventure was not limited to aviation however, as he was an avid scuba diver and taught Scuba in Campbell River from 1965-78. During that time he introduced many locals and visitors to the beauty of Discovery Passage and helped start the Riptide Diving Club. If you were to ask George what the most important thing to him was it would be his loving wife of 50 years, Jo-Ann Crawshaw and his family. George and Jo-Ann built a life for themselves on Quadra Island starting in 1969 and experienced everything available to an "islander" family - community development, store ownership, production of local maps and books, and general involvement in the social fabric of the island. Jo-Ann was quick to make friends and was George's way to meet the world: once introduced he'd make his mark by providing humour and compassion that no one would forget. George is survived by his wife Jo-Ann; son Joe (Natalie); son Michael and granddaughter Linnaea. The family wishes to extend their gratitude to Dr. Graham and the Staff at the Quadra Clinic, the staff of the Campbell River Hospital and their many friends for their support in his final days. A memorial service will be planned in the spring.
Joseph Raymond Levasseur Born November 1, 1944 Raymond passed away suddenly September 26. He was a brilliant fabricator welder, loved fishing and camping, travelling, playing guitar and adored all the little fun personalities of children and watching them grow. He will be dearly missed by so many people near and far, family and friends. A Celebration of his life will be held on October 12, 2016 at 3pm at the Merville Hall. Please join us in remembering Raymond by visiting our memorial at www.piercysmtwashingtonfuneral.com

Accountant takes over as chair at NIC
After being reappointed to his seat on the North Island College (NIC) Board of Governors earlier this year, local accountant Derek Lamb has now also been named its chair. Serving on the board at NIC, Lamb says, “is an opportunity to give back to students the college and communities across the region. NIC provides much more than just university transfer partnerships, courses and trades training. It provides opportunities for employees and employers across the region,” adding it is “an honour to be elected as board chair.” The Board of Governors for NIC isn’t the only position Lamb holds within the community outside his office. He also serves as chair for the John Perkins Memorial Housing Society, which provides 62 units of housing for low-income seniors downtown. In that role, Lamb recently fought for a huge renovation to the facility, which was in dire need of repair. He was also recently named one of Campbell River’s inaugural

BOOMERS & Beyond BC needs government-supported “Silver Alert” Brian Kieran, Publisher, Betterthan50.com
Betterthan50.com is calling on provincial law enforcement agencies to re-consider the establishment of a professional “Silver Alert” system in BC. Brian Kieran, publisher of the web portal for the 50+ community, says: “With Alzheimer's and dementia rates increasing in BC, the government needs to get ahead of the curve to keep our at-risk seniors safe.
“At this time, there is only a citizen-driven Silver Alert system that shares news about missing seniors via email, Facebook and Twitter. The Betterthan50 team applauds the work of this grassroots group, but it is time to ramp up the program to match the scope of Amber Alert.” BC Silver Alert was launched by Sam Noh and Michael Coyle, a Coquitlam Search & Rescue officer. Three
years ago, Sam’s father, Coquitlam retiree Shin Noh, 64, left home for his daily walk and vanished from the face of the Earth. Apparently, a member of his church spotted him, but didn’t realize he was missing. Noh’s family believes an alert system - similar to Amber Alerts issued for missing children - could have spread word of his disappearance in a timely fashion and saved his life.
After Shin Noh disappeared, a private member’s bill, the Silver Alert Act, was introduced in the Legislature. The bill called for a voluntary co-operative plan between provincial law enforcement agencies and other groups to work together to safely recover missing seniors. It died on the order paper.

living with dementia, according to the Canadian Alzheimer Society. That figure is expected to reach close to a million in the next 15 years. More than 60 per cent of adults with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia will wander. Experts say half of those missing for more than 24 hours will suffer serious injury or death.

for males. It is characterized by mental fog, low libido, reduced muscle mass and increased abdominal fat. Testosterone levels in males can be modulated by treating adrenal dysfunction. If you are a male that has gone through chronic stress, most likely your testosterone levels are low because of adrenal fatigue.
Below are a few things you can do now to address adrenal fatigue:

1. Eliminate or reduce coffee and sugar.
6. Spend time with friends or family that make you feel happy
Blood work and salivary hormone testing are done to confirm this functional disturbance. I have found the adrenal function panel to be a great test to confirm adrenal fatigue and direct treatment.
4. Try bone broths to support gut health and provide extra nutrients.

Stress, Hormones and Aging Submitted by Dr. Nathan Jeffery, ND, Perceptive Health
As we age the major stressors in life may change. In the aging population, chronic stress may arise from worries about our health, isolation and finances. Chronic stress has many negative influences on our health and may in fact contribute to poor memory and depression. This is why it is important to screen and treat. As a naturopathic doctor, I often take a systems approach to treating stress. A major system involved with the stress response is the hormone or endocrine system. The adrenal gland is a key organ to support while under
stress. Adrenal fatigue is a functional disturbance that often results from long term stress. A thorough medical evaluation should always be done first to rule out any major diseases. That said, the pattern of morning grogginess and energy lows and highs throughout the day is classic for adrenal fatigue. It is highly treatable with our naturopathic protocols. The adrenal glands are located just above the kidneys and are very important for hormone balance. Cortisol, also known as the stress hor-

mone, is secreted during periods of stress. In the short term it helps you overcome periods of stress by increasing performance. Over the long term it can be very toxic to the body leading to concentration and memory problems, weight gain, blood sugar problems and much more. The adrenal glands also produce androgens which are eventually converted to testosterone and estrogens. By treating the adrenals you may be able to gently balance these hormones naturally. Low testosterone is a very common yet under-recognized problem

Research has also shown that chronic stress actually speeds up cellular aging by shortening genetic material called telomeres. As we age telomeres naturally shorten over time but under stress this process speeds up. So by treating stress and focusing on wellness you may actually slow the aging process, at least at a cellular level.

Helping in whatever way he can Local investment and insurance guy really just wants to make the world a better place MIKE DAVIES CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
G
len Clark of Sun Life Financial has lived in Campbell River since he was three years old. He’s been an upstanding citizen, businessman and fixture around the community for a long time. For 21 years, Clark managed the family hot tub, pool and irrigation company. So how does one go from pools and sprinklers to insurance and investments? “It was time to make a change,” he says simply, “and the world of insurance and investments had always intrigued me. And then having gone through my dad dying – at only 55 years old – and seeing the effects of not having enough insurance for both the business and the family…well, the insurance agent that I had been dealing with all of my adult life encouraged me to get into it because he thought I’d be really good at it. He knew that I valued the products and protecting my family, and thought that if I held those ideals, I’d probably be good at portraying that to other people. In this business, I think, it’s important not to just talk the talk, but to walk the walk, and be in it for the right reasons.” In fact, he tries to do everything he does “for the right reasons.” “I like to help people in everything I do,” he says. “Whether it’s something I can do in the community or whether it’s something I can do for someone with their insurance or investments, I want to help them if I can.”
MIKE DAVIES/CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Glen Clark just wants to make the world a better place for people, whether that’s by helping them with their investments or insurance needs or giving his time to community projetcs.
That mindset, he thinks, comes from watching his mother’s attitude when he was young. “My mom did lots of volunteering for the Cancer Society and the Kidney Foundation and other organizations, and I saw the importance of that through her, I guess,” he says, but it also comes from simply wanting the best for the community – because the community being better makes your life better, too. “Especially, I think, if you’re self-employed in a community, it’s important to give back to that community, because, you know, the people in this community are paying my bills,” he says. “So whether it’s lending a hand, physically, or whether it’s giving monetarily, I feel it’s important to do what you can within your community to constantly make it a better place for all of us.” So, years ago, when Clark was
considering the ways to make the best use of his time and money in helping the community, he was speaking to a Rotarian about why they got involved with that organization, he says, “and I really liked his answer. He said that he really wanted to help all the different demographics of people within the community – seniors, kids, babies, sick people, business people, families and sports groups, and he didn’t have the time or resources to do all of that as one person, but by being a part of Rotary, he could, and that’s what he really liked about it.” And he’s been a Rotarian ever since that conversation. It’s possible he uses it as an outlet to relieve the stress from his job. Oh, come on. Selling insurance and moving people’s money around can’t be that stressful, can it? “Well, I take a lot of pride in the
investments side of things, and I lose a lot of sleep over the markets going up and down,” Clark says. “I, of course, want everyone to make a lot of money, so I find that doing an excellent job for them in that regard is stressful. When you’re dealing with millions and millions of dollars of other people’s money…” he says, leaving it hanging there for a moment before continuing. “I mean, it’s one thing if you make a bad financial decision for yourself, but when you’re dealing with other people’s money, it’s always on the back of your mind how important this is for people. Sometimes I’m dealing with someone’s life savings. What I’m doing for them is greatly affecting the rest of their life, so the pressure I place on myself to do the best I can for every single client is pretty weighty.” And while being responsible for people’s investments is pretty
taxing emotionally, it’s even more stressful, in some ways, over on the insurance side of things. “The biggest fear that I have in this industry is having an acquaintance or friend who has no life insurance die prematurely from an accident or illness and I know their family could really use that cheque that they’re not going to get.” So while finances and insurance may be more stressful than pools and sprinklers, there are benefits to the work, Clark says. “What I like most about my job is that I’m doing something different all the time,” he says. “There’s never a day when I’m doing the same thing all day long, and I never know what the next phone call or person who walks through the door is going to be about.” And when they show up or call, he’s ready to help – however they need it.

The indigenous peoples of the Americas held their own ceremonies and festivals to celebrate the completion and bounty of the harvest long before European explorers and settlers arrived in what is now Canada.

hanksgiving Day in Canada has been a holiday on the second Monday of October since 1957. It is a chance for people to give thanks for a good harvest and other fortunes in the past year. Turkey and ham are going to be on almost every dinner table this Thanksgiving.

special fortune. Full of bright, zingy fruit Ganton & Larsen Prospect Winery ‘Council`s Punch Bowl’ Sauvignon Blanc (402305) $8.79 is a bright start to any feast. Chill this remarkably affordable gooseberry and pineapple tinged white and serve it before dinner to get your taste buds ready. Some visionary credit for the development of the wine industry in BC should go to Father Charles John Felix Adolf Marie Pandosy, if only to embellish the charm of the myth that has him founding B.C.’s wine industry in the Okanagan Valley when he arrived in the Okanagan in 1859. One of the Artisan Wine Company’s many labels Kindle Merlot (596098) $9.15 is an easy drinking lighter bodied red full of ripe plum and dark cherry
aromas and flavours with subtle notes of dark chocolate and vanilla. Simple and straightforward, it pairs perfectly with turkey, ham, or even salmon. Lake Breeze Vineyards was awarded the prestigious distinction of Best Small Winery in Canada, along with Best Winery in British Columbia from the National Wine Awards of Canada this year. Celebrating its 20th Anniversary and the 22nd vintage, Lake Breeze has been going strong on the Naramata Bench since 1995. Full of sweet fruit flavours Lake Breeze ‘The Spice Jar’ (9472) $19.10 is a blend of 45 per cent Gewürztraminer, 30 per cent Ehrenfelser, 15 per cent Schönberger, and 10 per cent Viognier. The result is an highly aromatic off-dry white wine that is 100 per cent gorgeous!

The lightest and least tannic red wine grape, Pinot Noir has a reputation for being fickle to grow and difficult to turn into a satisfying glass of wine. ‘The Heartbreak Grape’ has baffled many winemakers… but when it works well the results can be astonishing. The grapes for Cassini Pinot Noir (167007) $19.10 came from the Osoyoos East Bench located above the Osoyoos Lake. It is a lighter bodied red with delicate aromas of strawberry, cherry, anise vanilla and blackcurrant with a nice fruity red berry and toffee finish. Sweet on first sip, it is seductively smooth as it slips over the tongue.

Repair Café fixers needed for Oct. 29 event D
Mary Ashley, past chair for the Campbell River Community Foundation, Mayor Andy Adams and Tanya Oliva, resource development associate for United Way celebrated the launch of the Vital Signs report at the Maritime Heritage Centre on Tuesday evening.
Community Foundation charts Campbell River’s vitals JOCELYN DOLL CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

ampbell River’s first Vital Signs report was launched on Tuesday evening. The document amalgamates statistics from the 2011 census, information from other provincial and local organizations, and the community foundation survey results to measure the viability of the community and support action towards improving the quality of life. From estimates of how much the population of 85 plus year
olds will increase by to graduations rates and number of museum visits, the report lays out the information about the people, their needs, their wants and their income, as well as suggestions from members of the community. “We have also been a resource community since our inception (logging, mining, fishing). Although these resources still employ many people, they have changed. We need to diversify even more where there are new opportunities,” said a resident who completed the Community Foun-
dations anonymous survey. Others called for more low income housing, easier access to facilities that can help individuals going through mental health crises and plans that ensure clean water for future generations. Where the report criticizes, it also celebrates. the arts and culture sector has grown in the last decade. Not only are the library and museum well utilized, the number of working artists and residents employed in cultural occupations has also increased. Campbell River also sees higher rates of
community belonging, volunteerism and and voter turnout than the provincial average. Vital Signs concludes with “Ten ways to take action.” The report recommends embracing, sharing, discussing and applying the information to make positive changes happen. Routes to take action include volunteering or donating money to causes that work to make Campbell River a better place to live, as well as sharing the information in the report with politicians and decision makers to use when making policies.
o you have a skill or talent for fixing things that you would like to share? Do you have time to help Campbell River do more to reduce, reuse and recycle? The Repair Café needs you! The City of Campbell River Parks & Recreation Department will host the third Repair Café on Oct. 29 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Sportsplex – where volunteer fixers help people repair various items with an aim to keeping these items out of the landfill. “Often, we see people wanting to repair treasured older items that just needed a simple fix,” says recreation program coordinator Linda Nagle. “Repairing an item is also a great way for people to save money instead of buying something new.” The Repair Café movement was started in Amsterdam in 2009.

Repair Cafes are now held in 29 countries, and there are more than 1000 events worldwide. In 2015, more than 200,000 kg of CO2 emissions were saved by repairing and reusing items rather than throwing them out. “By helping out at Campbell River’s Repair Café, you would be joining more than 13,500 volunteers worldwide who help others help the environment,” Nagle adds. Repair Cafe organizers are seeking people who can fix household items, household electrical items and electronics, sewing/clothing repairs, upholstery, garden tools, toys and any other items that can be easily carried to the Café.

he Crystal Serenity, a 300-metre long luxury cruise ship on its journey from Alaska to New York via the Northwest Passage, will be the first vessel of its size and sophistication to traverse this complex and dangerous waterway. Now unfrozen because of global warming, the iconic Northwest Passage will be able to offer a unique blending of excitement and indulgence to the adventurous 1,070 passengers and the crew of 700. The expedition required meticulous planning. Only about 10 per cent of Canada’s Arctic waters are adequately charted. So, two veteran ice pilots are assisting in navigating the huge ship. The Crystal Serenity is also accompanied by a British icebreaker, the RRS Ernest Shackleton, along with two helicopters to scout for threatening ice conditions.

Don’t get me wrong here, it isn’t the scrambler that, say, the latest Titan is; but the d ive (with ‘lock’ and ‘auto’ on-demand four-wheell drive modes, and hill-descent control) lend confidence to the experience. The fact is, there isn’t much to dislike about our first look at the 2017 Pathfinder. Nissan is holding the mantra that a vehicle like this (or, for that matter, vehicles in any segment) have to deliver a fully-rounded package, inside and out, to compete in a brave new world. We’ve reached a point where even entry-level autos can be bought with fripperies that were once the province of luxury brands, so the availability of things like a motion-activated tailgate or any of the latest driver-assistance technology and nanny systems are now things that simply must be offered. The automatic liftgate, for example (it operates by kicking your foot underneath the rear bumper, a feature we first saw on Ford’s Escape) will be standard equipment on all Pathfinders sold with the power liftgate option. It should be just the thing for most any situation that a family-oriented utility vehicle could be asked to endure. Basically it will break down into four trims (S, SV, SL and Platinum), all of which will have the 3.5L six-cylinder engine, CVT transmission and a choice of 2WD or four-wheel drive. Prices have just been announced: Pathfinder S 2WD, $32,498; Pathfinder S 4WD, $35,398; Pathfinder SV 4WD, $38,098; Pathfinder SL 4WD, $41,098; Pathfinder SL Premium Tech 4WD, $44,598; Pathfinder Platinum 4WD, $48,398.

published by Jonathan Cape in London. His most influential reference book, The Elements of Typographic Style—first published in 1992—is now in its fourth edition and has been translated into 10 different languages.
“Bringhurst’s influence on typography has been profound,” said Steven Galbraith, curator of the Cary Graphic Arts Collection. “A recent poll of type designers and other experts in the journal Visible Language named Elements of Typographic Style the most important book on typography produced in the last 50 years. That’s truly a well-deserved testament to the impact of his work.” In his lecture, Bringhurst will discuss how people give names to things and ask what typographers and typographic historians can

There is a large difference in the quantity and quality of the waste proposed to be landfilled.
Concerns found in Upland’s Reports Include: 1. Rico Lake, which abuts Upland’s site, groundwater drains to McIvor Lake, our drinking water. The bottom of Rico Lake is approximately168 metres above sea level. The base of the proposed landfill ranges from166-170 metres above sea level. Also the final top of the proposed landfill would be higher than the surface of Rico Lake. 2. Parametres forecast to exceed BC Contaminated Sites Regulation Criteria in untreated leachate are: Ammonia, Chloride, Phenols, Sulphate, LEPH, Arsenic, Boron, Copper, Iron, Magnesium, Manganese, Sodium and Zinc. Treatment of some of these parametres may prove ineffective. 3.

Typographic history is in more or less that condition.” Bringhurt’s groundbreaking study of a Native American oral literature, A Story as Sharp as a Knife: The
