Two bodies found in Ucluelet Police say remains found by dog walker

ANDREW BAILEY andrew.bailey@westerlynews.ca

The RCMP and B.C. Coroners Service continue to investigate the remains of two bodies found near Ucluelet late last week. A news released posted by the RCMP on Monday states the remains were found by a woman walking her dog. Sgt. Janelle Shoihet of the BC RCMP told the Westerly News on Tuesday that police are not releasing the specific location or date that the remains were discovered. “At this point, it’s too early to make any determination with respect to whether or not it’s suspicious or whether or not there’s any foul play,” Shoihet said Andy Watson of the B.C. Coroner’s Service told the Westerly on Tuesday that the investigation into the identities of the deceased, as well as the cause of death, is ongoing. “Our role in this will obviously be to determine: identity of the remains, when, where, how and by what means the decedents came to die,” Watson said. The discovery of the remains comes while police are also investigating the disappearance of Dan Archbald and Ryan Daley, who were last seen leaving a Ucluelet dock on-foot on May 16. “At this time, it is too early to determine whether the remains are of missing men Ryan Daley and Daniel Archbald and police continue to investigate their disappearance,” the release states.

MISSING: West Coast residents searched local shores over the weekend looking for three missing Tla-o-qui-aht fishermen whose vessel sank near Duffin Cove around 3 a.m. Friday. The Canadian Coast Guard, RCMP and search and rescue crews were also involved in the search.

Search continues for Tla-o-qui-aht fishers ANDREW BAILEY andrew.bailey@westerlynews.ca

The search for three missing Tla-o-qui-aht First Nation fishermen whose vessel capsized near Tofino early Friday morning entered its fourth day on Monday. Five men were on the tin boat when it reportedly sank around 3 a.m. Friday. Two were rescued and stated that three others were still missing. Members of the First Nation supported each other at Tofino’s First Street Dock over the weekend while they waited for news to come in.

“We’re hoping for some answers to exactly what happened. We’re hoping and praying that we’re still going to find some people within the area that are still survivors to come home to their families,” Tla-o-qui-aht First Nation member Elmer Frank told the Westerly at the dock. “There’s a lot of mixed emotions. With any kind of event such as this one, you’re going to be confused. There’s a lot of confusion. Emotions are going to be high for the next couple of days and, I think, we just need to respect that as searchers and we also need to respect the families.” Continued on A6

McMaster says arts funding should be spent on housing Controversial motion defeated at council table ANDREW BAILEY andrew.bailey@westerlynews.ca

Municipal councillor Duncan McMaster sparked palpable outrage from Tofino’s arts community last week by proposing a motion to nix council’s arts grants and put those funds towards affordable housing. “Housing is definitely invaluable to everybody. I’m not saying that arts and culture and everything else is not valuable, but housing people is more important,” McMaster said during Tofino’s June 12 council meeting. “Rather than just increase the taxpayer’s burden, which is going to take a heavy hit once we get into liquid waste management, it would be opportune to move those funds over to affordable housing; where the demand is.” His motion stated that council had recently agreed to allocate $50,000 towards affordable housing initiatives, “but little thought was given as to where this money was to come from” Duncan McMaster and suggested the council and arts grants would be a better source than taxpayers. He noted council dished out $25,000 in council grants and $25,000 in arts grants in 2018 and that nixing both those coffers would fund the housing allocation without raising taxes. He said council’s grants largely go to the same organizations every year and those organizations should be looking to create innovative funding streams on their own. “I’ve always viewed that grants should be looked at as an incubator for starting things off but, I think, it’s being looked at as a cookie jar; that it’s always there and people can apply and get money,” he said. Prior to council’s discussion of the motion, three members of the public spoke against it during the public input portion at the start of the meeting. “The value of arts and culture and the value of these grants to the community is incalculable as far as I’m concerned. It runs the entire gamut of the things that are attached to our hearts,” said Maureen Fraser. “We know the value of recreation to our bodies. We are slowly, as a community, realizing the value of arts and culture to our souls.” Fraser added that she has served as the president of both the Tofino Arts Council and the Tofino Clayoquot Heritage Society and said neither organization would exist without the district’s grants. “I just want to strongly urge council to defeat this motion. In fact, I would urge you not even to second it,” she said. Tofino’s Poet Laureate Joanna Streetly also urged council to dismiss the motion and said arts and culture create valuable community connections in Tofino.

“What stirs me about my home is not the quality of the asphalt. It’s the stirring experiences I’ve had here, the people I shared those experiences with and the warmth of that sharing. That’s what makes life meaningful here,” she said. “It’s what I’ll remember long after I’ve forgotten about the sinkhole on Olsen Road and it’s what has kept me living here, despite having issues about affordable housing.” McMaster’s motion was seconded by Coun. Ray Thorogood. “The group that was here this morning talked about this has got to come from the hearts. Well, I think, it’s got to come from our pocketbooks,” he said. McMaster and Thorogood were the only councillors to vote in favour of axing the grants in favour of housing, though council collectively agreed that the granting process needs rejigging. “It’s not exactly an embarrassment, but it is a pain in the rear every time it rolls around. It’s just an unpleasant process and neither council nor the recipients seem to be totally pleased with it,” said Coun. Greg Blanchette of the grants. Blanchette added that, while he believed the arts is the wrong pocket to pick from, he appreciated McMaster’s efforts to find money for housing. “I applaud councillor McMaster for your zeal in pursuing what seems to be the impossible to find: where do we get more money without increasing taxes?” he said. Coun. Dorothy Baert said the arts are vital and suggested there are other funding streams available for affordable housing projects. “I’m not impressed by taking this as the sword to splash a large wound in a very, very, important fabric in our community,” she said. “To say that the arts and the community would have to be made to suffer so that this can go forward, I think is just really ill-advised. It’s very upsetting to me and has been to a number of people in the community…I’m sorry that it’s even had to be discussed.” Coun. Cathy Thicke suggested amount council grants to to arts and culture initiatives would not make much of a dent in the town’s housing issues. “I think it’s a drop in the bucket when it comes to affordable housing,” she said. Mayor Josie Osborne said she would not support the motion but said she shared “profound support for really retooling our granting process,” and added the district will need to find ways to fund housing projects. “The Tofino Housing Corporation has made it really clear to council that we are not going to be able to get enough grant money from everywhere…to be able to undertake affordable and attainable,” she said. “We are going to have to look for alternative sources of revenue and that may include looking at property tax revenue. That is a conversation that is coming to us, whether we like it or not, in the next budget cycle.”

‘Fish’ chomps on a blueberry being fed to him by Megan Flood. The Canadian Princess’ pet was missing for nine months before returning last week.

Missing pet tortoise returns

‘Fish’ arrives back at Ukee lodge after nine months on the lam ANDREW BAILEY andrew.bailey@westerlynews.ca

An adventurous tortoise is back home after spending nine months on the lam. Fish, the Canadian Princess Lodge’s 15-year-old office pet, escaped from an enclosure set up for him on the Lodge’s lawn on Sept. 2, 2017. “He’s a beloved member of the family. We were really upset when he was gone,” said the Lodge’s Megan Flood. “We were offering rewards. We had missing posters all over town. At some point, we gave up hope. We thought he was eaten by eagles, so we were expecting to find his

shell somewhere.” That feeling of hopelessness was replaced with jubilation on June 11 as, Flood said, three Windsor Plywood employees spotted the turtle trying to fend off a crow across the street from the Lodge. “They just so happened to be passing by and they saw the tortoise crossing the

street, and a crow was trying to eat him. So, they saved the tortoise and brought him across the street,” Flood said. “One of the guys came over here and asked if we were missing a turtle. So, I went outside and I started to freak out. I was like, ‘There’s no way it can be Fish.’ I got a little teary eyed because we’ve been missing the guy.” She said, despite the little animal being covered in cobwebs, she recognized Fish immediately thanks to his unique markings. “We were hysterical when he came back. I was taking pictures and sending them all to the family members. The owners [Bob and Sue Se]

came over straight away and they were ecstatic,” she said. Fish is a vegetarian who feasts primarily on blueberries and lettuce and Flood said he looked like he’d eaten well during his time away. “[There’s] lots of leafy greens around Ukee, so he’s pretty happy,” she said. This was not Fish’s first time on the lam, as the wily creature once wandered off for two years before being found, according to Flood. “He’s a little escape artist, but we love him,” she said. “Some people have office dogs, we have a tortoise… He’s easy to take care of and he’s an all around nice guy.”

Blasting mishap causes outage Hwy. 4 construction work sent boulder crashing into pole ANDREW BAILEY andrew.bailey@westerlynews.ca

A boulder came loose during rock blasting work being done along Highway 4 and crashed into a B.C. Hydro pole on June 18, causing an eight-hour power outage throughout the West Coast. “Our infrastructure was damaged by rock hammering that was in close proximity to our transmission infrastructure as part of the Kennedy Hill Safety Improvement project,” Hydro spokesperson Karla Louwers told the Westerly News, referring to the federal and provincial

government’s $38 million joint-project to straighten out a 1.6 kilometre stretch of Highway 4. Louwers explained a “large boulder rolled into our transmission pole,” around 8:10 a.m. and caused a power line to detach, resulting in the outage that affected roughly 4,200 Hydro customers. “Our local crews responded. They assessed the scene immediately this morning and then our transmission crews, who have the correct equipment to work on those high-voltage transmission lines, travelled from Nanaimo to complete the repairs,” she said.

Those crews arrived on scene around 11:30 a.m and completed the repair at around 2:40 p.m. Power was restored at 4 p.m. Louwers said Hydro and B.C.’s Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure will review the incident to ensure the Kennedy Hill project’s impact on Hydro’s ability to serve its customers is minimized. “We’ll continue to work together to minimize impacts like this in the future,” she said. “We’ll review the incident that happened today and, if changes are needed or additional work needs to happen to minimize that im-

pact, we’ll work together.” B.C.’s Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure commended Hydro for its efforts to restore power to the West Coast and apologized for the mishap. “The ministry continues to work closely and have frequent communications with BC Hydro regarding the work schedule, and will be looking at ways to prevent and mitigate future unplanned outages,” read a statement from the Ministry. “This was unexpected and we apologize for the inconvenience the power outage may have caused for people in Tofino and Ucluelet.”

B.C. VIEWS

No time for maps in this rush to a referendum There’s a conspiracy theory making the rounds about the NDP government’s referendum on changing B.C.’s voting system. It goes like this: they’re making a mess of it on purpose so proportional representation will be dead for a generation, along with Green hopes of further erosion of NDP support to them and other upstart parties. I don’t subscribe to this theory. I still prefer the one I put forward in December, where the aim is to kill off the Social Credit-B.C. Liberal governing coalition and replace it with the Green-NDP coalition that currently clings to power. The two-part scheme I described is first, reverse course and tap into millions in public funding to replace union and corporate donations. Then break the promise of protecting rural constituencies in a proportional representation system, to give urban seats the clout. (Perhaps they could consider a third step, renaming their coalition the “Institu-

tional Revolutionary Party” in the Mexican in future leader David Eby’s office, and so tradition.) But ‘mess it up on purpose’ is a on. Can they possibly believe they can sneak compelling theory for a couple of reasons. through a low-turnout mail-in referendum The B.C. NDP has been split for many years and overturn 120 years of parliamentary between its growing urban environmental tradition? They believe they can eliminate wing and its traditional hardpoverty with an updated version hat industrial union base. of the Soviet five-year plan for The election of 2017, and the tractor production, so why not? one before that where leader Premier John Horgan even Adrian Dix abruptly turned tried to sell a scheme that their goofy collection of alternative against the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion, show that voting systems would be kept the urban greens have won, secret until September, because and the NDP is abandoning everyone would be too busy its industrial and rural roots barbecuing to wade through it. Tom Fletcher to try to save itself. That idea charred and burned Secondly, they’re really screwing it up – pretty quickly. I won’t ruin your appetite with a long derushing to an arbitrary November deadline, reluctantly pushing out untested, compli- scription of the options. Suffice it to say that cated voting options, doing it without even two of the alternatives involve “list” candipresenting maps of the vast multi-member dates. These listed lovelies would be picked constituencies, cooking the whole thing up by parties and stuck into big multi-member

districts to top up their popular vote totals, without the bother of actual people running for an actual seat. NDP proportional representation is like a box of chocolates: you never know what you’re going to get. The B.C. Liberals demanded and got a brief emergency debate on this, in which Prince George-Valemount MLA Shirley Bond noted that her single-member district is already bigger than Belgium. And it’s compact compared to Skeena and Peace River North. Voters may remember that we went through this proportional representation debate in 2005 and 2009, without the clumsy trickery on offer this time. There was an independent citizens’ assembly and a clear set of proposed multi-member constituencies. That plan also went straight from the grill to the garbage, under reasonable rules with a decent amount of time for voters to consider it.

Largest sporting event in the world, and one shared and enjoyed by almost every one of our universal immigrant brothers and sisters—a common love that brings us together. Yet, B.C. residents miss out! A disgusting decision, by short-sighted politicians. Can someone explain to the Province that this is a “Canadian opportunity”! We might as well separate from the rest of the Country. We’re talking about a universal sport— an oppoortunity to showcase our wonderful province. Don’t tell me that a bunch of politicans have the collective brain power to evaluate the positive return on an invesmtent of this kind of event. Maybe we start a go-fund-me campaign, and bypass the government? Yes I like football (a.k.a soccer). Especially the World Cup!

During this last weekend I had the humbling honour of working with an amazing group of people. Race or background didn’t matter, it was very apparent that all stood shoulder to shoulder to stand in and fill the gap on behalf of those who could not. I witnessed the whole coast become one community and become focused on one common goal. Those who could not actively searching provided such needed support for those on the water and others on the ground: food, water and lodging doesn’t begin to describe the outpouring of support from the people and businesses here on the coast. I witnessed people lifting up people with much needed emotional and moral steadfastness. I was blessed to receive a hand woven rose out of strips of cedar from a local First Nations weaver (people lifting up people, people supporting people) I watched as SAR members from across the island put their lives on hold to come and join the one common goal (people lifting up people). I held and cried with those who were directly affected, received hugs from friends and family; (people lifting up people, people supporting people) One face one community one goal. I had the privilege of working alongside the most tenacious focused and driven people that I get to call friends and colleagues. If I was to list all those individuals and businesses who were involved I’d fill pages and I could speak volumes on what I witnessed and became a part of. Life is not about me; it never was nor ever will be. Like you with all the stuff that we have been through I know this, we will not hesitate to stand and fill in the gap on behalf of those who cannot. I witnessed true community.

RCMP dive team searching for sunken vessel

From A1

Search and Rescue crews halted their efforts over the weekend, but Frank said at least 12 locally-owned vessels went out Monday morning as residents continued to search for the three missing men. “The dedication that they’re showing is all about respect. Respect of those that are missing, respect for those that have unanswered questions,” he said. “They’re out there to show respect for each other as First Nations and community members.” Sgt. Todd Pebernat of the Tofino RCMP said SAR stood down after an “exhaustive” two-day effort. “They covered areas five and six times over. I think it just came to a point where there was nowhere else to search,” he said. “Now, West Coast Marine with the dive team are covering areas they couldn’t cover.” He said West Coast Marine had an RCMP dive team and sonar equipment actively searching. “They’re on the water right now, utilizing whatever tools they have, to try to locate the vessel and they’ll continue until they’re confident that they’ve exhausted every avenue that they could possibly search,” he said. He added RCMP have met with the affected families.

RCMP were searching local waters on Monday for three missing mariners whose vessel capsized near Tofino on Friday.

“We really are one community.” – Elmer Frank “Obviously it’s a very difficult, emotional time for them, but we want to make sure they understand that we’re doing everything we can to exhaust the search,” he said.

RCMP have not released the identities of the missing men. Frank said all three are respected members of the Nation and the situation has many in shock. “They’re well-known fishermen in our community and you just never expect that these kind of things would happen. So, there’s a lot of shock in the community in terms of how we could end up

at this place,” he said. Frank said the West Coast’s support for the Tla-o-qui-aht during the search has been “overwhelming.” “It certainly really demonstrates that we’re one strong community within our area,” he said. “We really are one community.” Tofino mayor Josie Osborne said the mood at First Street

Dock was quiet and somber Monday morning. “Each day is a little bit different and, as news or no news come forward each day, there’s still a very strong sense of support, compassion and love and so much that’s being offered in terms of just physically being with family members and with community members,” she said. “I don’t think we can underestimate just how important it is to come together and to be together as humans…Unfortunately, this is not the first time that we’ve been through this. I’ve learned so much about how important it is to physically be with people. It’s challenging. It’s difficult for each person. Everybody handles it a different way but the fact that we’re all here for each other is what’s really important at a time like this.” She added Tofino and the Tlao-qui-aht First Nation have a strong connection. “These are the times that really matter and we really know just how deep our friendship is,” she said. “I really want to extend a heartfelt thanks to all the community members and businesses and all the people who have been here and been so supportive… It means a lot.”

Students and professors from the University of Tamagawa in Japan join Dr. Barb Beasley and West Coast NEST coordinator Nicole Gerbrandt, centre, for an educational hike along the Willowbrae Trail. The group was on the Coast from June 14-16 for a series of forest-themed workshops.

Japanese students learn about local forests NORA O’MALLEY nora.omalley@westerlynews.ca

A group of Agricultural students from Tamagawa University in Japan were on the Coast last week to learn about local trees and forestry practices. Their unique itinerary included a forest management workshop with Dr. Barb Beasley, a forest restoration workshop with Central Westcoast Forest Society, and a cultural themed session with Ahousaht First Nation Elder Moy Sutherland. The customized trip was organized by the West Coast NEST, a hub for connecting organizations and businesses to educational experiences on the Vancouver Island’s Pacific Rim. NEST educational coordinator Nicole Gerbrandt opened the educational visit up with a brief orientation session before sending the foreign students out to the trail to learn about cedars and shrubbery with Prof. Beasley.

“These students are all interested in ecology and B.C. plants and trees.” – Michiko Nakatani

“Meeting with the group upon arrival to the West Coast provided a nice welcome for them, and gave them a sense of personal connection, opportunity to learn more about the services available, and to ask any questions they had,” said Gerbrandt. Michiko Nakatani is the program manager for Tamagawa University at their satellite office in Nanaimo. She said the students are on exchange for four months, studying horticulture and ESL at Vancouver Island University. “These students are all interested in ecol-

#

ogy and B.C. plants and trees. So, we said, ‘Maybe we need to learn the First Nations idea toward forests rather than only what we have studied in Japan,’” said Nakatani. “We can read about Western peoples’ idea toward forests, but we can’t find so many papers or books on how First Nations people take a look.” Mio Yoshida, 19, only speaks basic English, yet she was able to convey her joy about learning how First Nations worked with trees. “First time I hear Western red cedar First Nation people,” said Yoshida. “I’m interested in Western red cedar. I live in Tokyo so Tokyo has little nature. Not many nature. Very different. Tokyo has many, many building. Not enough trees and nature.” Gerbrandt is looking forward to collaborating with Nakatani to create more customized educational trips for Tamagawa students.

“We will work together again, as they will be back with another cohort of students in October of this year. A professor from the Centre of Tamagawa Adventure Program joined in this tour and we are going to be in touch regarding future trips for his department also,” said Gerbrandt. She notes that the NEST is able to connect groups to over 30 organizations and businesses in the region with educational programming. “Additionally, the NEST provides a platform to connect with local knowledge holders that are not currently affiliated with a larger organization or business. For example, Nuu-chah-nulth First Nation Rose Wilson enjoys teaching [cedar] weaving, so we created a listing for her workshops and advertise it through word of mouth and social media.” Anyone looking for more information on the West Coast NEST is encouraged to visit: www.westcoastnest.org.

ing all bear his name. Lyche Island, once c a l l e d Channel Island, sits in the centre Shirley Martin of Ucluelet Harbour. Lyche Road runs down from Peninsula past the boat basin to Waterfront Drive. The Lyche Building, once the Public Health Centre, now houses the District Office. It stands at the bottom of Main Street, on the site of Ucluelet’s first school. August Herman Lyche was born in Norway in 1863 and came to B.C. as a seaman on a ship that sailed around Cape Horn. Conditions aboard ship were brutal and the crew mu-

tinied en route. Upon landing In Victoria they were arrested, but brought counter charges against the captain, alleging cruelty and inadequate rations. Having won their day in court, many stayed on in Victoria to work. August was one of them. In 1895 he sailed up the west coast on a fishing trip with his friend John Kvarno. They dropped anchor in Ucluelet and liked what they saw. August pre-empted a large block of land in what is now the centre of town. He farmed and fished, and was coxswain on one of the first West Coast lifeboats. The lifeboat was powered by oars and sails, a challenging prospect in heavy seas. August ran a hotel called the Bayview Lodge, which was situated on Ucluelet Harbour across from the present-day Police Station. August married a local lady, Alice Greenwood Lee, daughter of west coast settlers Thomas and Henri-

etta Lee. Alice Lyche became Ucluelet’s first school teacher. Records show that August was also involved with the school, chairing School Board meetings and auditing their financial reports. August and Alice had two children. Tragically their son Norman died at the age of 32. On April 25th, 1924 his unmanned gas fishboat, engine running, was found aground at the reserve near the harbour entrance. Local fishermen dragged the harbour for two days. An elderly Japanese couple named Kyuzo and Shima Shimizu eventually discovered his body at the head of the inlet while gathering firewood. They declined a fifty-dollar reward, citing the sadness of the event. Norman’s body, in a makeshift flower-covered casket, left the dock aboard a fish packer, accompanied by his parents and his Uncle Edwin Lee. Twenty boats escorted the packer to the mouth of

the harbour. A WW I veteran, Norman was interred with full military honours in Victoria’s Ross Bay Cemetery. Alice passed away in 1928, after a brief illness. August died in 1939 at the age of 76, having devoted many years to Ucluelet and area. Their daughter Alma had married Stan Littleton, who grew up on his family’s farm in Port Alberni. It is likely that Alma met Stan when he came out to Ucluelet to work with his brother Bill at Sutton’s Mill in Port Albion. After their wedding Alma and Stan lived in both Ucluelet and Port Alberni. She inherited the Bayview Lodge Hotel, which looked out over the harbour towards Lyche Island. Make sure to check out next week’s Westerly News for a Tofino Heritage column.

Edge to Edge half-marathon runners sprint down the opening stretch of the course on a balmy Sunday morning. The Father’s Day race event saw record high temperatures with Ucluelet cracking 30C by mid-day.

Edge to Edge racers charge through blistering heat Comox local defends half-marathon title NORA O’MALLEY nora.omalley@westerlynews.ca

Ucluelet’s 19th annual Edge To Edge race event was a sizzler. On Sunday morning, 582 runners laced-up for a sultry 10-kilometre or half-marathon race that featured a sprint around the Lighthouse Loop portion of the Wild Pacific Trail. The mercury was pushing 20C by the time the fire engine led the half-marathoners off the start line at 9 a.m. “It was really hot,” said runner Murrin Bewick of Ucluelet. “I definitely pushed myself. I think it would have been nice if it was cloudy. I’ve run that route before and I’ve gotten a better time but, I think, because it was so hot I was just expecting to do the best I could.” Fellow Uclutian Giordano Corlazzoli agreed. “It was really hot, which makes it a little bit harder. Once you got into the trail and the shade, it was a lot better,” he said. With local terrain-knowledge under his belt, Corlazzoli placed second overall out of 327 runners in the half-marathon. Stephan Smit of Comox B.C. defended the half-marathon title in a time of one hour, 33 minutes and 57 seconds. He said he encountered a bit of excitement within the first few kilometres of the race. “I had to stop for a bear at 5k. Luckily, one of the drivers saw me because I didn’t know what to do. He got the bear to go back into the forest.” Last year, Smit finished the half-marathon in one hour, 18 minutes and 28 seconds. “I suspected the route was a little bit short. This year, they had a local guy run the course three times and they moved the turnaround. The times reflect that. I think this is spot on. It reflects the time. It’s a difficult course. This is not the course for a personal best,” he said. Former professional triathlon athlete Gillian Clayton placed first overall in the women’s division of the half-marathon. “It took longer than I had thought. Almost 10 minutes longer than I had trained for. It

– Stephan Smit definitely was a challenging course. I was aiming for 1:30 and I came in at about 1:40,” said Clayton, who had an official race time of one hour, 41 minutes and three seconds. “There were more hills than I had prepared for. It was definitely a more challenging course than I had anticipated. But, it was beautiful. It was really well done. Great organization. Very well-supported by the community,” she said. Ucluelet local Brooke Pugh completed a fine 10-kilometre race in 52 minutes and ten seconds. She placed first in the female 35-44 category and ranked 13th overall out of 255 racers. “I expected the heat to do me in, actually. I’m not used to that here. But it was the home-turf advantage; knowing where all the hills were on the trail. You’d come around the corner and hear people groaning. I’d have to encourage everybody. I thought it was well-marked. Lots of good traffic support. Hearing the cheers was the most motivating part,” said Pugh. Australian Benjamin Niceforo, 21, crushed his first Edge to Edge 10-kilometre run in a time of 45 minutes and 41 seconds, placing first in the men’s under 24 category and fifth overall. “The course was a lot tougher than I thought. It was challenging. My pace was up and down but I finished strong,” Niceforo said. Edge to Edge race director Lara Kemps said she heard a lot of participants cross the finish line saying it was the hardest race they’ve ever ran. She disputed Bear Mountain’s title as ‘Canada’s Hardest 10k’. “I’m challenging Bear Mountain for the toughest 10k in Canada. Bear Mountain goes up but then it goes down. Our course has many hills,” Kemps said. The 20th Edge To Edge races will be held on the third Sunday of October 2019.

Ukee shops pour into Straws Suck movement Surfrider hopes for plastic-free Coast ANDREW BAILEY andrew.bailey@westerlynews.ca

A peninsula-wide effort to reduce single use plastics has united Tofino and Ucluelet in a fight against plastic straws. Surfrider Pacific Rim’s Straws Suck campaign, which achieved impressive momentum in Tofino, migrated to neighbouring Ucluelet in October when roughly 24 Ukee-based businesses that were using plastic straws agreed to stop by June 8’s World Oceans Day. “Plastic straws are one of the top ten items found on beach clean ups world wide, yet this product is not necessary for a majority of people,” said Surfrider chapter manager Lilly Woodbury. “By assisting businesses to eliminate plastic straws, we can prevent the pollution from ever occurring. This also works to shift industry practices and consumer behaviour so that straws and other single use plastics are no longer the norm and actually become socially unacceptable.” Woodbury was thrilled to see Ucluelet’s excitement in joining the initiative. “We assisted 24 businesses in eliminating plastic straws, but there are six more that were plastic free before the campaign. So, a total of 30 businesses that are in an industry that provides plastic straws are straw-free,” Woodbury said. “Many of these businesses are also plastic bag free, and working on eliminating other single use plastics from their operations. Congratulations to everyone. We are thrilled to claim this collective success.” She said Surfrider’s volunteer team worked with business owners and explained the benefits of joining the movement “Businesses have an amazing opportunity to be environmental leaders and influence customers from all over the globe, and the volunteers did a great job communicating this,” Woodbury said. “The volunteers also got the businesses stoked to be part of the movement and ensured that they would be set up for long term success.” She said the Straws Suck Pledge is strictly a social contract for the time being, but Surfrider plans to lobby hard for bylaws in both Tofino

and Ucluelet banning plastic straws and other single use plastics. “We hope this campaign will continue to inspire more people to join, or lead, this initiative in their towns and cities so that plastic straws become a relic of the past,” she said. “We ultimately want to create an Ocean Friendly Corridor between Tofino and Ucluelet that is single use plastic free. From straws to bags, coffee lids, plastic and foam takeout containers, and water bottles.”

Heat wave hits Island June 19 saw sunny, clear skies and 34 C in Courtenay, Port Alberni and North Cowichan; 33 C in Nanaimo and 30 C in Victoria. While the folks in Tofino enjoyed sunny skies and temperatures of 20 C Monday, the eastern half of Vancouver Island was sweating under a heat wave. Today and tomorrow are expected to be much like yesterday, before it starts to cool Thursday, with a chance of showers in many parts of the Island on Friday. As many head to the beaches or huddle in their air-conditioned offices, officials are taking care to ensure the vulnerable are safe in the heat. “This year it came early,” said Wes Hewitt of the Port Alberni Shelter Society. Hewitt said Shelter Society outreach providers are prepared for the hot water with pallets of water bottles. “We make sure that our clients are staying hydrated,” he said. “If somebody needs water… we generally have bottled water at any of our sites. People are always welcome to come in.” This includes the Shelter site on Eighth Ave, the Sobering Center on Fifth Avenue and the Shelter Outreach Centre on the corner of Bute St. and Third Ave. The weather at this time of year, said Hewitt, can be especially hard on seniors. “The ones we really have to worry about are our seniors,” he said. “If any of your family, friends or neighbours are seniors, make sure that they’re getting water and that people are checking on them.” The weekend is expected to dial the scorch back to the mid 20s, while the skies should be clear for an idyllic Island weekend. www.albernivalleynews.com

ISLAND IN BRIEF

Fraudulent handyman in Comox The Comox Valley RCMP is warning residents to be cautious and skeptical when someone comes to their door offering handyman services. According to the detachment, Comox Valley residents have been targeted by a man offering handyman services to seniors. The RCMP claims the man has travelled door-to-door and offered services such as eavestrough cleaning, yard work, and other handyman tasks. “The man gained the trust of homeowners and then took valuables from their home or failed to complete a job he had already been paid for,” reads a press release submitted by the Comox Valley RCMP on June 15, which described the man as being in his 60s, heavy set with grey hair. “There are many honest, hardworking craftsmen out there eager to get your business, but people need to be aware of fraudsters trying to take advantage of them” said Cst. Holly Carlson of the Comox Valley RCMP Crime Reduction Unit. The RCMP is asking residents to be vigilant and to call the police immediately if someone suspicious comes to their door offering handyman services. If such a man comes to your door, the detachment suggests not paying upfront for any services and asking for identification, a business card, or some sort of credentials. – www.comoxvalleyrecord.com
