Vancouver Island loses last logging train Vancouver Island’s last rail logging operation has ceased, less than a year after a fatal train derailment tragically killed three workers. Western Forest Products announced the closure of its Englewood logging train, which is headquartered in Woss, a small village on

Local girl gets to hang with her hockey hero MIKE DAVIES Campbell River Mirror
O
ne young Campbell River hockey player – and fan – recently had a very, very good day down in Anaheim. Mackinley Whalen, 11, picked up on Ryan Kesler when he was a Vancouver Canuck. She wasn’t really a fan of the team – her parents are both Montreal Canadiens fans, after all – but she certainly did like “that number 17 guy,” she says, and when he was traded to Anaheim, her fandom followed. “If he was traded to Toronto, I’d probably be a Leafs fan,” she says. “No you wouldn’t,” interrupts her mom April, half-jokingly. So when Kesler went down with injury earlier this season, she decided to write him a letter wishing him a speedy
recovery and letting him know they were going to be down that way with tickets to a pair of games. “At first I was sad that you will not be playing,” the letter reads, “but I just want you to get better soon. If you are around the arena for those games and feel like some popcorn I’m willing to share mine with you.” The letter included her seat number for each game. Apparently, April had added her cell number to the letter before it was sent, because she got a text message from Kesler letting them know he planned on joining them during the Ducks/Predators game Nov. 3. She didn’t tell Mackinley, though, because she thought it would be better as a surprise. “It was so awesome,” Mackinley says. “He came down and I thought, ‘is this
a fake person trying to tease me or a joke or something?’ but then he sat with me and had popcorn… and watched almost the full period with me.” “He was so down to Earth and engaging,” April says. “He was genuinely interested in everything she had to say. Even my husband said, ‘I wanted to hate the guy, but I couldn’t. He was so nice.’” The Whalens go down to the U.S. fairly frequently to watch hockey, because it’s actually significantly less expensive than going over for a game in Vancouver. “We can fly down to Anaheim or Florida for a game and including the flights and hotels, it’s still cheaper than going to a Canucks home game,” April says. “You can get into a game down there for like $16.”
Mackinley Whalen, 11, recently got to watch almost a whole period of NHL hockey with her favourite player, Ryan Kesler, because of a letter she sent wishing him a speedy recovery from his injury. Photo by Mike Davies/Campbell River Mirror And while they’re down there watching hockey, they can see other things as well. “My mom made me go to Disneyland,” Mackinley says.
“But I just wanted to watch hockey.” Mckinley is quite the athlete herself. She plays for two local hockey teams – one mixed and
one girls’ team – as well as being a burgeoning golfer. She is currently enrolled in a golf academy in Parksville with hopes to maybe one day be-
come a pro. “But I’d like to play hockey professionally, too,” she says. “I like golf, but I love hockey. It’s my passion.”
Train service closure: Company anticipates 15-person reduction in jobs Continued from A1 train employed 34 workers with the line running 90 km from Vernon Lake, through Woss, and past Nimpkish Lake Provincial Park to Beaver Cove. In their press release, Western stated, “as a result of the closure of the train, these positions will be eliminated,” but the company will identify “opportunities for the impacted employees to transition to other posi-
tions within its operations” anticipating the reduction in jobs to be less than 15. “It’s a devastating blow but it wasn’t unexpected,” said Rushton, adding “It kind of feels like a prizefighter who has been knocked down, we get up and it’s like another sucker punch after the incident in April.” In April 2017, the Englewood logging train derailed in Woss, killing three workers and injuring
two more. Western then halted operations on the train line, out of respect for the workers and their families, according to a joint statement from Western and their union the United Steelworkers Local 1-1937. Rushton said although the closure of the train “was expected with the rumours going on”, it will impact the entire village, which has a population fewer

than 200. “We are a small very tight night community - we celebrate everyone’s misfortune and we mourn their bad fortune, so it affects everybody,” he said, adding that some of the workers are second or third generation residents. “They have kids and grandkids here and if they have to relocate it’s tough.” Company offering to retain employees Western said it is committed to work-
ing with its employees in a fair and equitable manner. “The company is focusing today on working with our impacted employees and discussing options with them to look at other positions, retraining opportunities and other options that may be available,” said Western’s Communications and Government Relations Director, Amy Spencer via email. Rushton noted a
transition would be hard for some workers as “the guys that work on that road are in their late 50s and it’s tough to retrain and go back to school” but he hopes that “they’ll be something encouraging for them all.” The closure of the logging train operation, also has implications for road conditions on Highway 19, with Rushton stating he’s not sure if Western will use the highway

Derelict vehicle bylaw goes back to staff for further review MIKE DAVIES Campbell River Mirror
T
he third reading of a proposed bylaw that would crack down on derelict or inoperable vehicles on people’s property has been postponed after staff requested time to make adjustments to it based on community feedback. At Monday night’s meeting, council was set to give third reading to the proposed bylaw which would restict vehicles that are “physically wrecked, dilapidated or substantially damaged,” “not capable of operating under its own power,” or “not validly registered and licensed in accordance with the Motor Vehicle Act,” to enclosed buildings only. “We get a number of complaints for derelict vehicles
The city bylaw attempting to crack down on abandoned and derelict vehicles, requiring they be kept out of sight on residential property, has been sent back to staff to consider the feedback they have been receiving from the community. throughout the city and this bylaw is, I guess, an attempt to address those complaints and those issues,” said City Clerk Peter Wipper at the initial presentation of the bylaw two weeks earlier. Since that proposal, however, “we have received correspondence on this bylaw … and I would like the opportunity, if council would agree to it, to review the correspondence and report to council,” Wipper told council
Monday. “There may be some good suggestions in there for this bylaw, so I just need a little more time and suggest that we postpone third reading until the next council meeting.” The bylaw, in its current state, reads that “no owner or occupier of a Real Property shall permit the parking or storage of any derelict vehicle(s) on the Real Property other than in a fully enclosed building,” but also allows for
“one (1) unlicensed or inoperable vehicle may be parked or stored external to an enclosed building on Real Property provided that the vehicle is not in a physically wrecked, dilapidated or substantially damaged state and the vehicle is not parked in the front yard other than on a paved or gravel surface.” Third reading of the bylaw is expected to occur at the next council meeting, scheduled for Nov. 20 at 6:30 p.m.
B.C. Hydro rate freeze promised for 2018
T
he B.C. government has applied to freeze B.C. Hydro electricity rates for one year and cancel a proposed three per cent hike originally planned for next year. Energy Minister Michelle Mungall said Wednesday the one-year freeze will give time for a complete review of B.C. Hydro’s debt and its projects. That will start affter the cabinet decides the fate of the Site C dam project on the Peace River. In debate on her ministry’s budget Tuesday, Mungall cited a B.C. Hydro esitmate that cancelling the Site C project would translate into a 10 per cent rate increase for the utility, or additional debt of $4 billion to cancel the dam project and return the site to the
Energy Minister Michelle Mungall announced a freeze on Hydro rates for one year, cancelling a proposed three per cent hike previously planned, so they can complete the review of the corporation’s operations. state it was two years ago when construction began. “That is why we are commencing our review of B.C. Hydro following our decision on Site C, so we’re not speculating but we are working with factual information in terms of the direction that we’re taking,” Mungall told reporters at the
legislature Wednesday. B.C. Liberal finance critic Tracy Redies said the one-year freeze takes $150 million in revenue away from B.C. Hydro, and cancelling Site C would make matters worse. Premier John Horgan campaigned on a promise to freeze rates and complete
an independent review of Site C by the B.C. Utilities Commission. Hydro rates have increased 24 per cent over the last four years, as the utility has taken on major construction upgrades and deferred debt to keep rates from rising even higher.. The rate freeze follows a budget commitment made in September to phase out the provincial sales tax on electricity sold to businesses. Horgan said his government will be meeting with B.C. Hydro officials in the new year to discuss a number of issues including deferred debt, the steady increase in electricity pricing and also the two-tier billing system that charges a higher rate to large residential consumers.

Illegal dumping – examine your assumptions By Luisa Richardson
Are you among those who think that people dump their household waste in the woods because they can’t afford the landfill fees? Spending time
with the volunteers who clean up these illegal dump sites could quickly cause you to change your mind. The people who dump stuff seem to have lots of disposable income – why else would they be
Attending a clean-up of illegally-dumped material is a great opportunity to examine a dump pile. The layers are like a cake – the bottom layer is usually someone’s yard waste. The yard waste then acts as a marker for other illegal dumpers to bring their materials. The next Campbell Riverarea clean-up is planned for Nov. 19. getting rid of TV’s, furniture, house-

HELP PUT CAMPBELL RIVER’S NEW TOURISM MARKETING PLAN INTO ACTION Join the Tourism Advisory Committee!
The City has one appointment open for the Tourism Advisory Committee, for a term ending December 31, 2019. The Tourism Advisory Committee provides advice and recommendations to Council to deliver the community’s tourism vision and make Campbell River a destination of choice. The committee focuses on: 1. Destination marketing in target markets to increase the number of overnight stays in paid accommodation 2. Visitor servicing that provides information where/when/how visitors prefer to support longer stays and increased spending, plus education and training to help Campbell River deliver remarkable visitor experiences 3. Destination development by working with partners to ensure tourism knowledge and expertise and the visitor perspective is considered in all significant local projects/ventures The nine voting members on the Tourism Advisory Committee include people with experience and knowledge of tourism or destination marketing, visitor servicing or related and relevant skills.
hold appliances, carpeting, toilets, landscaping supplies and household chemicals, if not to make space for newer items? Sometimes, they even include the packaging for the replacement items. If you are still not convinced, consider where people dump – they use a vehicle and gas to drive to rural locations, often driving right past the Campbell River waste management centre. Attending a clean-up of illegally-dumped material is a great opportunity to examine a dump pile. The layers are like a cake – the
tion material, roof or floor tiles, clothing, food, used baby diapers and other household garbage. What would it really have cost to properly dispose of these items at the landfill? For $10, you can drop the following item off at the Campbell River waste management centre: • 100 Kg or about 6 bags of household garbage • 5 twin or 3 queen mattresses • 4 bundles of shingles • 4 wooden fence panels If you or someone you know has spotted an illegal dumper please call
1-800-331-6007 or visit www.cswm.ca/ illegaldumping. Or join volunteers at the next cleanup, starting at 10 a.m., Sunday, Nov. 19. To reach the meeting place, turn west at the junction of Highways 19 and 28, drive approx 2 km (towards Gold River). Turn right at the truck crossing sign and head over the bridge and up the hill. Luisa Richardson is an Educator for Comox Strathcona Waste Management, a service that manages over 100,000 tonnes of waste and recycled material and oversees a number of diversion and education programs.

Discovery Harbour Marina looking for family of owner of derelict vessel JOCELYN DOLL Campbell River Mirror
T
he staff at Discovery Harbour Marina is looking for family members of Gary Geisel, who passed away, to come forward and claim his vessel Tanu Warrior. The 54 foot commercial fishing vessel has been moored
at the marina on a month to month contract since last winter, said McKenzie Malone, the moorage coordinator at Discover Harbour Marina. The staff have been attempting to get in touch with the emergency contacts listed on the mooring contract since June, but have been unable to get through. All of
their voice mails are going unreturned. “We can’t legally get rid of it or do anything with it until we hear from somebody,” Malone said. However, through the Repairers Lien Act, the marina is entitled to sell the vessel if the amount they are owed remains unpaid for 90 days. However, before selling, they must give
two weeks notice by advertisement in the nearest newspaper. At the moment the vessel is still in the harbour, but has been moved off to the side.

first foray into the school system. Each teacher gave specific examples of how the extra support in the classroom helped students get more comfortable with the environment more quickly than previous years, whether it was the ability for the teachers themselves to better assess and comfort students who were struggling at drop-off time, being more efficient in their support at lunch, recess or other times of the day, or simply being able to more quickly assess students’ individual learning needs thanks to having another set of eyes around who could help assess classroom dynamics, student strengths and deal with struggles that would inevitably crop up. This was not surprising to district assistant superintendent Nevenka Fair, who said that supporting children making the transition from “oneon-one care and attention – if they were in daycare it would be more of an eight-toone ratio – and moving into a classroom with usually one adult in it,” is often quite
Kindergarten students in the district got a little extra attention at the start of their educational journeys this year thanks to a $20,000 funding approval by the board of education last year. difficult not only for the children, but also their caregivers, so the addition of another educator in the class while everyone makes that transition just made sense. “Even the Ministry (of Education) is saying right now that there’s enough research about how those early years are significantly important,” Fair said, noting that much of that research suggests that the more quickly students become comfortable with the school environment, the better their longterm educational relationships and outcomes end up being. The feedback from trustees on the presentation was extremely positive, suggesting that the funding could well continue and eventually get rolled into the annual operating budget of the district rather than needing to be requested every year.

Students in an uproar over grad and prom changes Tara Kruyt Carihi Mirror
This year, Carihi’s graduating class of 2018 is going to see significant changes to prom and grad, sparking concern among grads. As opposed to the traditional prom ceremony held at Strathcona Gardens, prom coordinators have changed venue, as well as the traditional after-grad party, now changed to after-prom party. “We’re not really sure what to think of it,” says Hannah Blackmun, a Grade 12 student at Carihi. “Some of us may not necessarily coincide with change, but I think it’s important for every-
one to keep an open mind.” The changes made to the habitual celebration have been deeply discussed among Carihi’s student grad executive committee, as well as the parent committee. Polls have been made within high schools across Vancouver Island, with the purpose of bettering the experience for all those involved. For the past 20 years, Carihi has had their prom celebratory dinner take place at Strathcona Gardens. This year, the dinner venue has been switched to the Thunderbird Hall. In addition, Carihi’s annual Continued on A13
Austrian student loves welcoming Campbell Riverites Anna Buck Carihi Mirror
Carihi secondary school is home to a flourishing international program which included over 20 students in the 20162017 school year. One of this year’s international students is Klara Kopeinigg, a Grade 11 student from a small town near Vienna, Austria. Kopeinigg is currently planning on staying in Campbell River a total of 10 months,
but is also considering attending Carihi until she graduates in 2019. “I was always very inspired by those people on TV,” Kopeinigg says when asked what made her want to participate in the exchange program, “It’s not really a year in my life, it’s like [having] another life for a year.” Asked about her first impression of Campbell River, Kopeinigg says she found the city Continued on A13

New vice principal’s first time in high school all over again Braden Majic Carihi Mirror
Carihi’s new Vice Principal Louise Panziera is beginning a new path in her career by working at a high school for the first time. “I always said to people that I would never become a teacher,” said Panziera. “And then when I was a teacher, I said I was never going to be an administrator.” Here she is though at her second school
as a vice principal. The first time was at Southgate middle school for four of her five years there. Before that, she worked as a teacher at École Phoenix, and before that teaching grades 3 to 7 in Richmond. Panziera moved back to Campbell River nine years ago with her son. She was born in Port Alberni but grew up in Campbell River and graduated from Robron. “[I’m] a Campbell

Anna Buck
My name is Anna Buck, and I’m a 16 year old Grade 11 student at Carihi secondary school. This is my first year on the Carihi Mirror team, and I’m super excited to try my hand at journalism! I am a very passionate reader and love nearly every book I read, especially those about history. I was home-schooled until Grade 10, when I entered Carihi for my first year in public school. I knew right away that I was going to love Carihi, and I really do. I also enjoy writing which, paired with my fondness of our school, made the Mirror seem like a perfect fit. I’m looking forward to an exciting year with the Carihi Mirror!
River girl at heart,” she said. Panziera has enjoyed every teaching opportunity she has had, unable to pick one as a favourite. “It’s kind of like choosing your favourite child, it’s hard to do,” she said. Panziera really enjoys the playfulness of the younger grades, and the energy of middle schoolers. With Carihi, she enjoys the ability to have more adult conver-
sations with students. “I really loved teaching all of those different grades,” she said. “I think elementary and middle, and as I’ll learn about high school, they all do have a unique gift and a unique strength.” It seemed like high school was the one puzzle piece that was missing from her career in education.

Growing up I have always carried a passion for fine arts, and have more recently discovered my love for writing.

It feels great to be back with the Carihi Mirror for another year of telling the student story. Last year, I kept myself busy by interviewing people, gathering information and snapping photos. I discovered something new with every single article I wrote and felt thrilled to share that story with a wide audience. Now, I am back to continue my journey with journalism. When I’m not writing stories, I enjoy reading, swimming, volunteering in the community and learning new things. I am also a very proud Carihi Tyee and as a Grade 11 student, I look forward to the many adventures ahead in my final years at Carihi.

cozy, peaceful, and full of people “way friendlier than in Austria.” “My first impression of Carihi was super good,” says Kopeinigg. “I was here in the summer. I walked into the school and this girl asked if I wanted to sign her shirt. I didn’t know her, but yeah, of course! The people are so friendly and personal, you know? “It’s so much more intimate [than Austria]. There’s this feeling of unity.” One of the things Kopeinigg likes most about Carihi is the opportunity to take what classes interest her most. In Austria students are not given a choice of which classes they take, every individual must take the same courses. When she isn’t at school, Kopeinigg enjoys walking, spending time on the

Klara Kopeinigg is an international student attending Carihi for the 2017/2018 school year. She is in Grade 11 and is from a small town in Austria. Photo by Anna Buck/Carihi Mirror beach, and taking piano lessons. “I like going into the forest for a walk, I love the Canadian forest, and I love being on the beach and enjoying the sea. Austria doesn’t have a sea, we are in the middle of the continent.” Kopeinigg immediately mentioned her family when asked what she misses from home, but she
also mentioned the transit. “I miss the bus system. There was a bus every five minutes and you always know where it is going.” Kopeinigg is unsure whether or not she will come back to Canada after her exchange is over. “There are a lot of factors. It all depends on what I’d like to do after school. That’s just something that I
have to find out,” she said. Kopeinigg stresses the impact Carihi’s international program has had on her life. “The exchange program has added so much to my life, and I encourage other people to try it. It’s such a good way to experience new things and get to know another country and culture.”
New VP: Campbell River girl at heart Continued from A12 “High school is the one environment where I don’t have any experience,” said Panziera. “I’ve taught grades 3 to 9, I’ve been an administrator in a middle school, [high school] just felt like it was something I wanted to explore.” In September when Panziera was welcoming new Grade 9’s to Carihi, she informed them that she was new to high school as well. “I wanted to be honest, and I wanted to let them know [they’re] new here and I’m new here,” she said. As vice principal, Panziera has been able to connect with not only Grade 9s, but many other students and staff members.
“Everyone’s been welcoming, she said. “I see the kids representing so many different interests, and so many different
passions.” She added that there are still classrooms she has to visit and courses she would like to find
more about. “My favourite part of the day is exploring and going to different classrooms,” she said.
It’s Coming!
BIG TRUCK PARADE December 1st, 2017
Continued from A12 after-grad party, an overnight gathering for grads equipped with various forms of entertainment that has also been traditionally held at Strathcona Gardens, is instead occurring after prom, and will be held at the school. Timberline Secondary is also undergoing similar changes for their prom and grad celebrations. There have been varied reaction from students at Carihi and Timberline. Some in full support of the changes, and others
against it, creating petitions and speaking out. “I’d definitely prefer having it celebrated how it’s always been,” says Gurjot Mann a Grade 12 student at Carihi. “Tradition is really sentimental, and you don’t get the same feel when everything’s been changed. So many of us look up to previous graduations with expectations, and now it’s all been changed without any of our inputs.” With planning for prom in full swing, only time will tell the success of the changes put in place.
MANAGING YOUR MONEY

But concerns around basic income linger. Some experts see the Ontario basic income program as too much of a one-size-fitsall solution. Under it, people with sudden financial problems must wait because benefits are linked to last year’s tax return and people with disabilities may miss out on extra services and benefits, because it will replace Ontario Works (welfare) and the In April 2017, the Ontario government Ontario Disability Support Program.

NIC celebrates Apprenticeship Week This week (Nov. 5-11) is Apprenticeship Recognition Week in B.C. and North Island College is getting involved. NIC offers foundation and apprenticeship programming spanning the construction, mechanical, electrical, industrial and culinary trades. “The awareness and acknowledgement of the importance of apprentices and skilled trades across the region and our province is very significant,” said Cheryl O’Connell, NIC’s dean of trades and technical programs. “Skilled apprentices and trades professionals are es-
sential to our regional and provincial economy.” Annually NIC provides trades programming for more than 600 full-time equivalent (FTE) apprentices who are supported by our regional employers and leaders. “The support from regional employers is vital and very much appreciated,” said O’Connell. “NIC is proud to be delivering relevant and timely trades education with curriculum that is informed by industry and endorsed by the Industry Training Authority.” The apprenticeship model provides trades
students the opportunity to gain core theoretical and applied skills while also earning hours towards their Red Seal designation – the interprovincial standard of excellence in the skilled trades. “The Red Seal provides a nationally recognized certification acknowledging your skills and experience as a tradesperson,” said Doug Podetz, the Industry Training Authority’s Vancouver Island (North) apprenticeship advisor. “It demonstrates that you meet the standards for journeypersons and provides greater mobility for skilled work-

The 2025 BC Labour Market Outlook projects there will be 13,900 construction job openings on Vancouver Island in the coming years. “Being a tradesperson is an incredibly rewarding career and the demand for skilled workers is on the rise,” said Podetz. “Whether you’re fresh out of school or looking for a career change, there’s never been a better time to start your training.” Seats are still available for the January

Six tips to avoid being a casualty: Declare how big you want to be in 24 months and use this revenue goal to develop your plan. Choose who you intend to serve. Where will you generate your revenue? Determine how you intend to compete by answering the question: “Why should I buy from you and not your competitor?” Focus on the critical few, not the possible many. Cut the crap. You can’t afford activities that are not directly related to executing your plan. Plan, execute, learn, adjust is the planning model that works in a volatile world. Final word: focus on the next 24 months; earn the right to stay in business longer. 1281 Cedar Street, Campbell River Phone: 250-914-5828 Email: info@tapbookkeeping.ca WWW.tapbookkeeping.ca

Campbell River lags behind national average of immigrant population Last year’s census found that 10 per cent of people living in Campbell River are immigrants, more than half of which immigrated to Campbell River prior to 1981. Nation wide the number of immigrants makes up the highest part of the population since 1921, an average of 22 per cent of people. However, in Campbell River 56 per cent of immigrants came to the city before 1981, though numbers are on the rise. Between 2011 and 2016, 275 people immigrated to Campbell River. Of the immigrants in Campbell River, the most well represented country is the United Kingdom, at just over 900 people. The second is the U.S.A followed by Germany and the Philippines. Since 2011, the most immigrants have come from the Philippines, 95 of the 270. According the the Statistics Canada census data, 53 per cent of immigrants who came to Campbell River between 1980 and 2016 were economic immigrants – those who have been selected for their ability to contribute to Canada’s economy through their ability to meet labour market needs, build, own or manage a business or to make a substantial investment. This is similar to the number of immigrants admitted nationwide.

Raffi and Gillis inspire at annual lecture MIKE DAVIES Campbell River Mirror
A
beloved children’s entertainer and a documentary filmmaker came together to give a pair of exceptional and poignant talks at the 8th Annual HaigBrown Memorial Lecture last weekend. Presented by the Campbell River Arts Council, the Museum at Campbell River and the Haig-Brown Institute, the lecture has a history of approaching conservation, ecology, environmentalism and social issues in new and unique ways while honouring the past – and this year’s event was no exception. After executive director of the arts council and director of public programs at the museum Ken Blackburn welcomed the crowd, Damien Gillis took to the stage and introduced his film, Primeval: Enter the Incomappleux. The film follows a group of conservationists, biologists and wilderness explorers as they trek through an area of B.C.’s Selkirk Mountains and explores our society’s complex relationship between nature and the economy.
Both before and after the screening of the film, Gillis spoke passionately about his love of the natural world and his own struggle with this relationship. His own family comes from a background of resource extraction and he passes no judgement on the practice – he just thinks it can be done in a more responsible way much of the time. And he wants it not only for us, but for his young son and for all our sons and daughters – who, after all, will inherit the world we leave them. “Surely, there is room in our economy for smart, well-regulated development, but there must also be a line beyond which certain places and values are held as sacred. Like a community’s drinking water and wild salmon habitat. Like the Incomappleux - a natural cathedral to which I would rather take my son than to Notre-Dame or the Sistine Chapel. I want my son to wander amongst giants, to stare up at their canopy, to feel the cool breeze on his cheek, to lose track of time and to forget, even for a moment, about the facts, figures and concerns of our man-
Raffi recounts the story of how he came to the conclusion that we need a major social shift to considering the needs of children before all others at this year’s Haig-Brown Memorial Lecture on Friday. Photo by Mike Davies/Campbell River Mirror
made world,” Gillis says. The film and lecture also highlighted the fight the Valhalla Wilderness Society is involved in urging the government to recognize that area and its ecological wonder as a provincial park, and, as Gillis says, “to avoid having the whole place turn into a tree farm.” After a short intermission, Raffi Cavoukian – who most know simply as Raffi – took the stage. Raffi recounted how during his long and illustrious career in music, traveling all over the world, he has met many famous and influencial people, but the ones who really stuck with him were the ones who were trying to make a shift in the way we look at the world itself and our relationship alongside it. People like Nelson Mandela, Al Gore and the Dali Llama and events at the United Nations and other global leadership conventions and conferences, Raffi says, all led him toward what he thinks is his purpose in life: changing the focus of society so we consider the needs of the children over our own. “Child honouring is a vision,” he says, “an organizing principle and a way of life – a revolution in values that calls for a profour redesign of every sphere of society.” And that redesign, he says, begins with acknowledging that the first years of a person’s life are more important in terms of who that person becomes than any other period of their lives. Once we realize that by focusing on the needs of the children, the rest of it will come

Photo by Mike Davies/Campbell River Mirror along and we will make a better world for everyone, he says, we can really start to make that change for the better that the world desperately needs right now. “Child honouring is a corrective lens that, once we look through it, allows us to question everything from the way we measure economic progress to our stweardship of the planet,” Raffi says. “It offers a proactive and developmental approach to creating sustainable societies. As a creed that crosses all faiths and cultures, child honouring can become a potent remedy for the most challenging issues of our time.” For more on Raffi’s child honouring philosophy, visit childhonouring.org and for more on Gillis’ film and the efforts of the Valhalla Wilderness Society, visit vws.org

WISE Doug Sloan
As wine lovers, we have become accustomed to excellent and well-priced wines from South America. Chile and Argentina have won their places on our tables and in our wine cellars. Very few of us, however, have tried any wines from Uruguay. This may be because, on the whole, Uruguay is a country of small-scale, family-owned wineries where some 250 wineries producing approximately 10 million cases annually. By comparison, Chile’s Concho y Toro winery produces more wine than all of Uruguay. Now that the wines of Bodega Garzón have arrived, Uruguay’s wines will become more widely available. Owned by Argentine billionaire Alejandro Bulgheroni the 9,880-acre property includes vineyards and olive trees as well as a new multi-million-dollar 123,000 sq. ft. environmentally certified winery opened in 2015. Wine making arrived in Uruguay with the Spanish in the early 1600s. Uruguay’s wine industry began in the 1870s when the red wine grape Tannat, from the Madiran region of France, was introduced by Basque immigrants. Tannat is now considered Uruguay’s signature variety… but there are up and coming white wines! A uniquely Uruguayan take on the variety, Garzón Viognier (+235085) $20.99 opens with fresh sliced
picked grapes allow the winemakers to moderate the excessive tannins that are always a possibility with Tannat. Red and black berry aromas and flavours mingle in every mouthful of this sturdy wine. Using concrete fermenting tanks – an expensive technique that is approved by consultant Alberto Antonini – softens this naturally spicy red. Keeping tannins in check also means ensuring that the grape seeds are fully ripe before picking. Like the Reserva, Garzón Single Vineyard Tannat (+199810) $44.99 spends 12 to 18 months in untoasted French oak barrels after fermentation in concrete tanks. Aromas and flavours or dried strawberries, black cherries, blackcurrants and blackberries simmer under the first notes of fresh cut tobacco leaf, cedar and dark chocolate. Broodingly dark and intensely fruity and pepper-spiced, the dark earthy flavours finish with a wisp of sea salt and bright juicy acidity. Seek out these intriguing wines if you’re ready to expand your wine tasting horizons. Only time will tell if Alejandro Bulgheroni’s introduction of Bodgea Garzón’s fine wines into British Columbia will lead to the arrival of more Uruguayan wines on local shelves.

Carihi drama teacher recognized L
ast year was a banner year for Christine Knight and the Carihi drama department. Not only did the put on their annual musical, large ensemble play, and participate in Canadian Improv Games, they also hosted the North Island Drama Festival and went on to the provincial drama festival with their play Aunt Leaf. Knight, the drama department lead, was recongized for her accomplishments with the Association for BC Drama Educator’s Drama in Education Teaching Award for 2016-2017. “We teach in a remarkable strong zone for drama education fuelled by a number of outstanding teachers,”
said Colin Riddell, Carihi teacher, in the nomination letter. “It is common for drama teachers around here to do a huge amount, so I would often not look at a colleague and see them as much different than the dozen others we work with. In this case I think (Knight) has simply had a career capping year, and I believe it deserves to be acknowledged.” Knight has been teaching for 24 years. She started in Coquitlam, taught in Port Hardy and has been at Carihi for the last 10 years. She was hired at Carihi to teach English, but slowly took over the drama department. “It was only a matter of time,” she said with a laugh. “Teaching English is rewarding but not in the same way as
teaching theatre. I’ve gotten most of my reward as a teacher from being a drama teacher I would say. You spend more time with the students and …the keeners are part of your program for the whole time.” This year there are eight full time drama classes including improvisation for the first time, last year it was only a club. “There are just tons of improv games, there are so many, but we also do activities that teach the rules of improv,” she said. The improv team competes in the Canadian Improv Games, making trips to Courtenay throughout the school year and heading down to Victoria for the finals. But it isn’t all fun
and games. ‘The acting class is working on a class play and doing scripted work, script interpretation… and doing games and activities that make them into more aware people and better actors,” Knight said. For more on Knight’s work at Carihi and her recent award, head to campbellrivermirror.com

Most dentists automatically return your old crowns, caps, etc. to at the end of your visit. It may seem yucky, but the gold has a value even as scrap. If you leave it with your dentist, it may go to fund the staff party or a new BMW (just kidding) for sure it won’t be thrown out. Dental gold ranges from 10 to 22 karats, with the average being 16 karats. Remember that August is more than happy to test and appraise any gold or silver items that you may have. It’s free and its fun.

1. Purchases: Payments based on Mortgage Specialist contract rate but purchasing power is decreased by approximately 21% due to the qualifying rate. 2. Refinances: Payments also based on the contract rate but depending on equity needed, the qualifying rate may not allow for enough money for completion of a renovation or to consolidate your debts. Meaning you would need to accumulate more equity or possibly look to a lower rate variable mortgage. 3. Renewals: Should you wish to shop for a better rate with other lenders having to requalify under the “stress test” guidelines could hamper your plans.

What are the benefits?
One of the easiest ways to minimize your risk of a knee sprain is to strengthen the muscles the muscles around the knee that act as shock absorbers and joint stabilizers. Appropriate quadriceps-to-hamstring strength ratio and timing helps protect David Pechter, MScPT Registered Physiotherapist the knee by checking forward sliding of the tibia (shin bone), which can rupture the ACL. Female skiers are particularly vulnerable to ACL injuries compared to their male counterparts due to different quads-to-hamstring strength ratio and landing mechanics. Two good pre-season exercises for skiers are: body-weight squats from 30-80º of knee flexion and walking backwards while maintaining a skiers crouch. Start with one-minute sets of each, and progress up to five-minute sets. If you would like a more specific pre-season exercise program, your Physiotherapist can assess the biomechanics of your knees and prescribe appropriate exercises.

Why buy life insurance if I am single with no kids? The simple answer is to guarantee insurability. While you are young and healthy, life insurance is inexpensive and easy to get. A health event can make life Devon Garat insurance extremely expensive, if Financial Advisor you can get coverage at all. 1 in 2 Canadians will have a Cancer diagnosis in their 30/12/66/36 lifetime, and any incidence of Cancer can put insurance out of reach. Another recent study showed 24% of adults aged 40 to 59 had hypertension. Uncontrolled Hypertension (high blood pressure) can jack up insurance rates if coverage can even be found. A job in a high risk category can also result in your policy costing 3 – 4 times the standard rate. Getting coverage now could be your only affordable option later.

Industry guidelines are changing the amount people can qualify for when you have 20% or more down payment for all types of mortgages. Applicants will now need to qualify at The Bank of Canada’s 5 year benchmark rate (4.89%) or…. the contract rate plus 2%. Whichever is greater.

Unfortunately the deadline for T4’s is also the deadline for RRSP purchases so waiting tends to result in a rushed purchase, or missing out on buying RRSPs Darlene Garat entirely. Neither situation will help propel your retirement savings. A current pay stub has enough information that, when combined with last year’s Income Tax Notice of Assessment, will allow your Financial Advisor to determine how much you should be purchasing. Buying early also allows them to work with you to determine the best investment options, and allow for borrowing to maximize your refund if it is viable option for you. RRSPs are Retirement Savings and investing sooner rather than later is always the best option. Mutual funds sold through.

Hear their voices on Remembrance Day Island Voices Chamber Choir presents “Voices in Remembrance: In Their Words” on Nov. 11. Through song and narration, the audience will witness the anguish of war, grieve for the dead, and find solace in hope and the contemplation of peace. Since its inception by the late Frances Keen in 2005, “Voices in Remembrance” was seen by the choir not as a concert, but as a way to bring the community together. The texts will be read by actor local actors Jennifer Moses (Courtenay) and Christine Knight (Campbell River) and Black Creek’s Nick Preston. Island Voices is especially honoured to be joined by the Canadian Military Wives Choir in Courtenay and the Campbell River Children’s Choir. Choosing music which is especially meaningful to them, and joining for a final massed number, these choirs will add an additional dimension to the experience. For this moving program, the choir
Island Voices’ “Voices in Remembrance: In Their Words” will be presented on Nov. 11 at St. Patrick’s Catholic Church at 7:30 p.m. (admission by donation). has woven together music and text, with readings chosen from journals, letters and interviews. From a WWI soldier who will never see his new daughter, to a medic working in an army hospital, to family left behind, the readings have been chosen to convey a breadth of human emotions. All the readings have a local connection, from the memories of 96 year old veteran Bud Mabbet, to diaries from the trenches, to a blog of a wife trying to keep the family going. The songs will evoke a variety of feelings associated with Remembrance Day. There are many connections with
love and loss, such as “After the War is Over” (from the movie “Passchendaele”) and “Johnny, I hardly Knew Ye”.
There are prayers for strength, such as “Hear my Voice” and words of despair, such as “When I am Silent”. But there are also wishes for peace and an “Inscription of Hope”. “Voices in Remembrance: In Their Words” will be presented twice on November 11th, at St. George’s United Church (Courtenay) at 2 pm and at St. Patrick’s Catholic Church (Campbell River) at 7:30 pm (admission by donation).

Official unveiling set for downtown mural Alex Witcombe’s dreamscape mural will be officially unveiled Tuesday at noon by the artist and Mayor Andy Adams. The project, which has taken several years to come to fruition, provides a dynamic and visually stunning addition to the brick wall on the corner of 11th Avenue and Shoppers Row. Witcombe was commis-
sioned to create a piece that reflected Campbell River’s culture. He notes this is the first time he has been given free creative rein on a project of this scope. The resulting image is a dreamscape representing the very heart of creative inspiration. It includes images from many professional and amateur photographers. The project is a joint
venture of the Downtown Business Improvement Association (BIA), the City of Campbell River, property owner Dawn McLean, Discovery Community College owner Lois McNestry and the artist. This art work is a beautiful addition to the Cultural District and is the crown jewel in the City’s Downtown Revitalization vision.

What to do before flying south for the winter
How to protect your home while you’re away
For many retirees, the arrival of autumn means making travel arrangements to destinations with a milder climate. For a worry-free departure, here are five important things to remember.
Are you going away for a few weeks or months? In the rush to organize all their travel arrangements, many people forget the importance of protecting their home during their absence. Here are some tips to follow to deter burglars and make it look like your home is occupied.
1. ESSENTIAL DOCUMENTS Passport, driver’s license and registration: make sure that none of these documents will expire during your absence. Check the expiration dates and make any necessary updates. Before you leave, be sure to make photocopies of them. If the originals are stolen or lost it will be much easier to replace them if you have a recent photocopy with you. 2. CONTACT INFORMATION Inform your family of your destination and the length of your stay. Give them the number where they can reach you in case of an emergency or update your cellphone plan to avoid exorbitant roaming charges. 3. BILLS Are your electricity, gas and cable bills paid by direct debit? Make sure you have enough money in your account to cover them before leaving. If not, ask about payment methods available to you, including how to pay online. 4. FORWARDING MAIL Check with the post office to see if you can have your mail held while you’re away. Alternatively, you could ask a trusted person to pick it up for you.

A FEW WEEKS Protect your home during your long absence by making BEFORE DEPARTURE it appear occupied. Ask a friend or family member to visit your home regularly during your absence and make a list of the jobs that you would like THE DAY BEFORE DEPARTURE this person to do (water plants, for exam- Unplug electrical appliances inside your ple). You should also install outdoor lights home and move any plants away from winwith motion detectors in less visible areas dows so they will not dry out as quickly. of your property — after all, there’s nothing Ensure that all garbage cans are empty and like being able to surprise intruders. that the windows and doors are locked. SEVEN DAYS BEFORE DEPARTURE Make arrangements for someone to look after the yard as well as dispose of flyers and newspapers while you’re away. You could also ask a trustworthy neighbour to park his vehicle in your driveway to give the impression that the house is occupied. In addition, be sure to put timers on some of the interior lights; lights that are turned on all the time will attract attention for all the wrong reasons.
5. ANIMALS If you can’t bring your pet with you on your travels, ask a friend or relative to take care of it for you. If not, lots of kennels offer a boarding service for short or long-term stays.
Naturopathic omonski , ND, CHt Physician 6
or:
www.campbellrivermirror.com
THE DAY OF DEPARTURE Set the air conditioner or heating system to economy mode and activate the timers on the lights. Turn off the water supply to such appliances as the washing machine and dishwasher and check that everything is locked, including the garage door. After locking the main door, be discrete about putting your luggage into the car in order not to draw attention to the fact that you’re going away.
Loneliness can be as Harmful as Smoking Dr. Anita Komonski, BSc, ND Naturopathic Physician & Clinical Hypnotherapist Loneliness and social isolation are increasingly important issues in our society. Several recent studies have overwhelmingly showed the impact of loneliness on health: feeling socially isolated increases the risk of early death by 30-60%. This means that loneliness may be a more significant health factor than obesity, smoking, exercise or nutrition.

The first step in addressing loneliness is recognizing it and acknowledging it as a problem. Talking to a mental health professional can be really important in making a plan and developing a strategy to improve social contacts. Some strategies that may be helpful include: reaching out to friends by phone or in person instead of email/text/ social media, volunteer or adopt a pet. www. gocampbellriver.com offers a comprehensive list of activities and clubs in the area for all ages from gardening to hockey. Campbell River Senior’s Centre and the Immigrant Welcome Centre also provide several opportunities where people can gather for socialization and friendship. Take the first step and reach out – you’ll be happy you did.

What type of home do you buy?
usan SMallinson
There is an endless supply of different types of homes available for purchase – ranging from condos to townhouses to fully-detached homes. The key is to decide what you can afford and which amenities you prefer before heading out shopping for a new home. Your best first step is to seek the advice of a Dominion Lending Centres Mortgage Professional and get pre-approved on a mortgage. That way, you already know what your price range is – and, therefore, which type of home you’re in the market for – before you begin shopping.

First Open Heart of Campbell River’s donation adds to doctors’ diagnostic arsenal The Campbell River Branch of the First Open Heart Society recently donated to the Campbell River Hospital Foundation to support the purchase of a Vscan Portable Ultrasound for the Heart and Lung Diagnostics Department in Campbell River Hospital. The Vscan is a pocket-sized portable ultrasound device that allows a wide variety of physicians to provide rapid assessment of internal organs at the bedside. It compliments traditional examinations techniques and improves the diagnostic skills of the physician. “This specific device has already been useful in diagnosing life-threatening heart conditions in our hospital,” states Dr. Aadil Dhansay. “It allows us to look directly at the heart for
a quicker diagnosis, faster treatment and better outcomes. On behalf of the medical staff and patients who will benefit from this device we would like to thank the Campbell River First Open Heart Society and Hospital Foundation for providing this vital piece of equipment.” Formed in 1973, the First Open Heart Society provides patient support for those about to undergo heart surgery by those who have already ‘walked the path’. The Campbell River Branch holds one fundraiser each year; the Walk for Hearts, held the first Sunday in May. All donations from this event stay in our community and are used for North Island heart patients, cardiac equipment for Campbell River Hospital and education for cardiac nurs-

Midget Hurricanes can’t stop the rolling Thunderbirds MIKE DAVIES Campbell River Mirror
An impressive effort from goaltender Ashley Hogg wasn’t enough to net the Campbell River Midget Hurricanes a win last weekend against the visiting Sooke Thunderbirds. Despite being back on their heels for much of the game, the Hurricanes managed to keep their composure, taking only one minor penalty the entire game. Unfortunately, they
were unable to stop the Thunderbirds’ unrelenting offensive onslaught. The Hurricanes’ Tatum Feeney found the back of the net twice in the loss and another goal was added by Kayle Majic. Camryn Hockley, Jennifer Hampton, Sydney Cole and Lauren Bull also got on the scoresheet with assists on the Hurricanes’ goals, but the Thunderbirds came away with the 6-3 win
on the road led by Ruby Spurr, who had a hat trick and added an assist to go along with a three-point night from both Ireland Greenhough and Erin Chisholm.

Campbell River gymnastics coach one step closer to becoming Olympic judge Todd Sader, Program Director and head coach of the Campbell River Gymnastics Association has been training to be a high level judge for Men’s Artistic Gymnastics. He was recently asked to partake at the 2018 Gymnastics World Championships. The event took place from October 2-8 and was held in Montreal. Sader was a secretary for the rings event, a position only held by International Judges. The position included sitting with the head judge and overseeing the scores and start signals for the athletes’ warm
ups and competition. “It was an honour to be named as a secretary and it was amazing to be on the podium seeing the World Championships unfold in person!” Todd said. “Everywhere I looked there were famous athletes or coaches that I have seen on T.V.” Sader has been judging high level events for the past five years including a Pacific Rim competition, the Pan Am Games and a World cup event in Croatia. Being asked to attend the World Championships has brought Sader one step closer to his goal of being

Every kid deserves a bike!
It’s that time of year again where Swicked asks you, the community, to donate your gently used bikes. We will make them safe, shine them up, and get them running like new before we put them under the Christmas trees of deserving kids this year. Every kid deserves a bike, but not all kids are as lucky as I was as a youngster. I often think about how cycling has shaped my life. As a kid, It gave me purpose, camaraderie, and freedom. As an adult it brings me fitness, adrenaline, and the ability to feel like a kid. When was the last time you saw someone of any age riding
a bike without a smile? Over the last eight years we have transformed over 200 bikes for the less fortunate kids in Campbell River, and you have made it possible with your donations. Currently this year we are far short of bikes and we’re asking you to check the garage and shed, and ask your neighbours and friends to help. We want to put at least 30 bikes under trees this year. We are looking for kid’s bikes with 24” wheels or smaller. If your bike is not in perfect condition that is okay, that’s what we do. Please help us help the kids. I’m James Durand and I’m Goin’ Ridin’…

ed about the trajectory of his swimming career. “He started off as the slowest swimmer in his group, but he kept on working and ended up competing at the Olympics. His talk was very inspiring,” says Wenger. At the end of the camp, select athletes got to race against Page in a 50m butterfly, his specialty stroke. “The kids selected to race got to wear fins,” Lathangue says. “One kid actually beat him.” In addition to the pool sessions and the presentation from Page, athletes attended a session with a nutritionist in which they learned the optimal time to hydrate and eat during training and competition.

Last weekend, three swimmers from the Campbell River Killer Whales Swim Club attended a regional training camp in Duncan run by Swim BC. Kaya Lathangue, Martina Montana, and Summer Wenger were selected for the camp based off 200m Individual Medley times they achieved last season. Regional Technical Coach Peter Wilkins took the athletes out of their comfort zone during training sessions by encouraging long underwater glides after pushing off from the walls, counter to the usual practice of underwater dolphin kicks. “The goal,” says Lathangue, “was to get us to wait a bit before underwater dolphin kicks so we could maintain speed off the walls.” Other valuable parts of the camp included a presentation by Olympian and former Killer Whale Alec Page, who talk-

Place your condolences online. (Visit your local newspaper website, obituary page)
October 29 1939 – October 28, 2017
Michael (Mikey) McInnes
Perhaps they are not stars in the sky, but rather openings where our loved ones shine down to let us know they are happy.
July 25, 1987 – Nov. 14, 2011 Those we love don’t go away, They walk beside us every day. Unseen, unheard but always near, Still loved, still missed and very dear. We will always miss you. You’re in our hearts always Michael. Love Mom, Dad, Kris & Terra, nephew Jack, Grandma and all the family and friends.
Abe Bergen
Dec. 15, 1941-Nov. 11, 2003
We all miss you Abe.
Donald Jack Lee May 20, 1933 – October 20, 2017
A wonderful man and great story teller was lost with the passing of Don Lee October 20, 2017. Don is predeceased by his parents Jack and Gladys Lee and brothers Robert and Gordon. Left to mourn are his loving wife of nearly 57 years, Patricia; children Cathy (Mike), grandchildren Andrew, Vickie and Erik; Craig (Moira), grandchildren Brianne and Madison; great-grandchildren Dean and Zach. Sisters Audrey (Roy), Gail and Jacquie, sister-in-law Janet and many nephews and nieces, friends old and new, relatives near and far. Don was born May 20, 1933 in Powell River, BC. The oldest of six children, he would tell of his escapades with his brothers and watching the town grow. He moved to Campbell River in 1952 where he met and married Patricia in 1960. Don worked at the Elk Falls mill as a paper-machine mill-wright for over 40 years and was an honorary volunteer fireman and ambulance support in various ways for almost as many. Don always enjoyed the great outdoors whether it was hunting with his dad, fishing trips with his friends or camping with Patricia and family. He was especially fond of the camping trips he and Patricia took in their later years to various spots and the cruises and world-trips that they enjoyed with his family and friends. Don was exceptionally good with his hands, whether it was in the garden or in the shop on one of his many woodworking projects. He always had an idea and if he didn’t have the tool to do it, he’d figure out how to make it work, always with an eye for detail. An avid gardener, he was planning next year’s crop up until his passing. Don was very involved with his children, supporting them by coaching softball, helping judge competitive swim meets, being involved with Scouting and chaperoning various activities. Above all else, Don enjoyed people; no matter whether he had just met you or you had been friends for years, he would always strike up a conversation that made you feel special. Don was able to convey his enthusiasm and joy of life so well that you didn’t even need to speak the same language, he’d still be able to make you smile and have a laugh. Family and family gatherings provided treasured memories. Things such as the family getting together for holidays, having Chinese food for New Years day dinner, playing cards and building rock walls at the cabin on Buttle Lake will be remembered by all. There were many adventures and even more great memories. Of late were his granddaughter Vickie’s arrival from Scotland for a visit and to give a helping hand. The other was his last boating excursion to his old fishing holes and past his beloved former Race Point home with Madison, Craig and family friend Glenn Redding. Don appreciated the planning and extra effort that went into this and loved the day. After being diagnosed, Don became a member of West Coast Prostrate Cancer Support group which provided companionship over the years. In the end, he succumbed to the effect of many cancers. Family members are grateful to Dr. Meckin, Dr. Ramsey as well as nurses and staff at Campbell River hospitals, old and new. Special thanks to cancer and palliative care units who treated Don with care and compassion. A Celebration of Life to be held at a later date. If so wished, donations in Don’s name can be made towards PET scan equipment at Victoria Cancer Center or a charity of your choice.

Jason ‘Homeboy’ Ridinger RIDINGER Jason “Homeboy”, “Homes”, passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, October 28, 2017 at the age of 45 years. Jason is survived by spouse Sarah; children Dorian and Coral; parents August and Marla; sister Janine and nephews Logan and Lucas, as well as many other extended close family and loved friends.
On the last day of his 78th year, Ted completed his final journey. He passed in peace and with a calm mind, in the presence of his children. Ted discovered hiking later in life, first in the beauty of Quadra Island where he lived and raised a family, later on the Hawaiian island of Kauai, and ultimately found a spiritual connection in his trips to walk the Caminos in Spain. Through his treks, he found new vigor and meaning. It was what he came to look forward to each year. Although his illness was not related to his trek, we are happy that he left this life doing what he loved to do. He is survived by his children Seain (Rhaya), Chris (Dawn), Keltie (Ben), and his six grandchildren, Marshall & Claire, Damien & Amelia, Keira & Rory, and his former wife Wendy. A private family gathering will be held at a later date. Godspeed, Dad…
Jason grew up in the community of Gold River where he met lifelong friends and brothers. The bond was very tight. Upon graduation, Jason lived in Victoria running his own DJ’ing company and working for the Clipper Navigation for over 15 years. From there Jason moved to Port Alberni with his family to enjoy the West Coast lifestyle more. He worked at Fir Park/Echo Village doing what he loved- cooking- and making the lives of the seniors a happier time. He was the Chief Shop Steward, passionate about creating equality in the workforce! Jason was forever making meals for friends and family and not a weekend went by where people were not gathered around enjoying his talent for preparing seafood or a roast and having a social. Jason was ONE OF A KIND! So much love for others! In his younger years Jason could be found swimming and cliff jumping at the local swimming holes, playing hockey, swimming competitively, and listening to music with lifelong friends. When not working, Jason was fishing, camping, swimming, having bonfires, caring for his hobby farm and spending time with his family-the most important things in his life! Jason had a smile and laugh that would brighten up the room, but nothing held a candle to the love and pride he had for his children. A Service of Remembrance will be held at 1:30pm on Sunday, November 12, 2017 at the Chapel of Memories, 4005-6th Avenue. Celebration of Life to follow in Jason’s style!

Already we have seen a trace of snow and heavier snow has appeared in the upper elevation lakes. Those who enjoy hiking and fishing have to be careful as snow covers up the terrain and there is always a chance of slipping and getting hurt.
More snow has fallen above 1,500 feet but lakes such as Fry and Beavertail will be fishable. If the weather is mild, Maple and Echo can be fished from shore using worms and bait. Many lakes in November can be fished during daylight hours and fishing 40 to 80 feet of water will be the key. Troll small plugs or wed-

Chum fishing on the Puntledge River is almost done but a few clean fish are coming through and it could come to an end within a week. The chum run started in early October and those who got out got their limit and the smokers were going strong all month long. Those fishing with spinning gear had good success using pencil lead rigs with wool tied on the hooks.

rise, extra fishing pressure will be on the rivers as we get into the prime winter season. I am seeing more fly fishers out on the Quinsam and Campbell Rivers and water conditions will improve in Sayward if more rain comes and the river rises. During the winter months the Salmon River can be fished by drifting and those who are experienced know the pools and keep tight lipped about it. I am working on dates and location of the fly tying sessions and will keep you posted each week, as we get closer to the New Year. The sessions are free of charge and it’s a great way to get hands-on experience and try it before you buy it.

More Atlantic salmon showing up
More Atlantic salmon escapees have showed up in the Campbell River and others have been reported in the Eve and Salmon Rivers north of Campbell River. On Aug. 19 the Cooke Aquaculture-owned operation near Cypress Island in Washington State containing about 300,000 Atlantic salmon, broke up and set over 165,000 free. Atlantics have also been reported as far north as Tofino on the west side of Vancouver Island, according to Byron Andres, head of the federal Atlantic Salmon Watch program, in various news reports. Two fish were reported in the Eve, by anglers and a pool in the Salmon River has an unconfirmed number of fish as well. Two there, were also taken by anglers. At least four Atlantic salmon were reported being in the Campbell in August.

Remembrance Day ceremonies carry on with tradition, but some of the surrounding concepts do change, bit by bit. With every Nov. 11 that comes and goes, we become further removed from the world wars, and we have fewer veterans among us who remember, who witnessed that part of history, and who can tell it and teach us. There have been other wars and conflicts since and sadly the way of the world We say: It is ensures there will be incumbent on all others to come. And of us to keep the though modern war is waged differently, torch burning some of the reasons for which to fight, the foundational freedoms at stake, those aren’t so different. That’s one of the reasons Remembrance Day is so important. It would do a disservice to the courageous soldiers of years past to forget the things they fought for, and to relinquish without a fight any of the spoils of war, which is to say peace and freedom. On Saturday, Nov. 11, the annual Remembrance Day ceremony will happen downtown at the Cenotaph. We encourage anyone to attend to see the wreath ceremonies and join veterans and other community members in a moment of silence. But if you can’t make it downtown, we would like everyone to take at least a moment to think about what the day stands for and what it means to them. Because there is a lot to think about, when we think about war and remembrance. And every Nov. 11, there are fewer memories, perhaps, so we should recognize that and make sure that in spite of that, we find some way to remember.

north as Hecate Strait and the Kitimat River. Previous attempts by both the provincial and federal government to intentionally introduce Atlantic salmon into west coast streams failed. In the early 1900s, juvenile fish were released into the Campbell, the Coquitlam River, Lillooet River, Harrison Lake, Comox Lake, Horne Lanke, Nanaimo Lake, Cowichan Lake and the Koksilah River among others. They didn’t take. Still DFO says they would like to get the identified Atlantics out of the rivers. “If we find Atlantic salmon in our river systems as a result of the recent escape we will go in and remove them, not because they present a significant threat, but if we have an opportunity to remove a foreign species, why wouldn’t we?”
