City workers back talks with strike vote RENÉE ANDOR CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

A mediator has been called into handle contract negotiations between the city and its workers. These workers have been without a contract since the end of 2009, and during the past week they voted 88.3 per cent in favour of strike action. “We have now been to the negotiating table 10 times, twice with a mediator, but the City is still insisting on concessions,” said CUPE 401 Campbell River Unit president Blaine Gurrie in a news release. The mediator has asked both sides not to discuss details of the concessions before the meeting, but Gurrie briefly mentioned changes to hours of work, and changes to recall language for hiring back employees after being laid-off as issues. City of Campbell River general manager of corporate services Laura Ciarniello said that she doesn’t see job action happening, and called a strike vote “normal.” “A strike vote is a normal part of the collective bargaining process,” said Ciarniello. “So it’s not unusual that the union would go to their members to get a mandate to make sure they’re going in the right direction and that they have the support of their members.” Continued on A3

Quit ignoring Campbellton, group says KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

A group of Campbellton business owners and residents say the oldest part of town is constantly ignored by the city and are trying to attract some atten-

tion. Campbellton First officially formed last week when the group held its first membership meeting at the Eagles Hall last Wednesday. Ted Arbour, who co-owns Econo Ezy Box Storage in Camp-

bellton, said organizers weren’t sure what to expect when they called the meeting. “We didn’t know if we’d have four or five people show up, but about 60 people showed up,” said Arbour, a director on the newly formed Campbellton First Board.

“We were really pleased with the turnout.” The group hopes to influence city council and those running for a seat on council to make decisions that will benefit and improve Campbellton. Continued on A3

Dump fee may rise The cost to dump garbage may be going up. The Comox Strathcona Solid Waste Management Board is considering increasing tipping fees at both the Campbell River and Cumberland landfills. The bylaw, which details the scale charges, is currently at the third reading stage and may be adopted at the regional solid waste board’s next meeting, Nov. 3. “The minimum charges for local residential loads less than 60 kilo g rams will remain at four dollars,” said Tom Boatman, the region’s solid waste manager. “However, the price per metric tonne will increase from $65/tonne to $80/ tonne. This increase should allow for a balanced 2012 operating budget, as well as allocate reserved funds for future capital proj-

ects.” In addition, the new categories offer diversion incentives to help preserve landfill capacity for the future and are consistent with other waste management centres on the Island. If the board does decide to go ahead with the change, tipping fees would increase effective Jan. 1, 2012. Tipping fees not only go towards operations at Campbell River and Cumberland waste centres but also the operations of the Tahsis and Zeballos landfills, plus the Gold River transfer station and landfill. In addition to these facilities, the multi-bin recycling depot system, the compost education centres in Courtenay and Campbell River, and waste reduction education and road maintenance grants are funded through the

tipping fees collected at the two waste management centres. For more information on the current schedule of fees as well as those included in the recommended bylaw visit, www.cswm.ca/ fees The Comox Strathcona Waste Management (CSWM) service is a function of the Comox Valley Regional District (CVRD) and is responsible for two regional waste management centres that serve the Comox Valley and Campbell River, as well as a range of transfer stations and smaller waste-handling and recycling facilities. The Comox Strathcona Waste Management service manages over 100,000 tonnes of waste and recycled material and oversees a number of diversion and education programs.

Strike: Meeting with mediator Continued from A1 However, Gurrie said he doesn’t like using the ter m “nor mal” when talking about a strike vote because it “diminishes the frustration of the members.” He also said that in the 38 bargaining agreements he has been involved in, only four strike votes were called, and that the vote means a strike is possible.

“Obviously it’s a possibility or we wouldn’t be doing it,” Gurrie added in an interview. “It’s certainly not probable yet, and it’s not our desire to see picket lines go up in Campbell River.” The city and CUPE will meet again with a mediator on Sept. 22 and 23 to try to hammer out a deal. Talks had been kept to a minimum until

recently while CUPE gave the city time to deal with the Catalyst Paper situation. Both sides said they are hopeful an agreement will be reached. “We’re hopeful still,” said Gurrie. “Nobody takes a strike vote lightly, but we’re hopeful that the labour board, when they bring the mediator in, can help guide us to a settlement.”

Campbellton: Group forms to represent area in talks with city Continued from A1 “Campbellton is so badly neglected by the city, i.e. potholes,” Arbour said. “When compared to Willow Point – what an extreme difference.” Arbour points out that on the south end of the city there is a large Campbell River city sign with beautiful flowers surrounding it, while at the north end there’s not much. The group is also concerned about safety along the roadways.

“Open ditches are a concern,” Arbour said. “There’s very little curbs, very little sidewalks are also a concern.” With the formation of Campbellton First, area businesses and residents hope to represent Campbellton in discussions with the city. Arbour is quick to point out the group is not a Business Improvement Area (BIA) association and is not a social group. And Campbellton First has already made some big strides.

Last week, a board was formed and membership fees collected – $10 for residents and $20 for businesses. “The meeting went pretty well,” Arbour said. “We told people that if they have complaints the best thing to do is to phone the city themselves, but if the problem persists to report it to the board.” Arbour said the board’s first meeting will take place Thursday night at Canaccord when it will hammer out its list of priorities.

Legal aid eligibility questioned RENÉE ANDOR CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

More people may now qualify for legal aid since the Legal Services Society (LSS) has accounted for a cost of living increase. Effective Sept. 1, LSS improved its financial eligibility guidelines for legal representation and advice services with a 2.4 per cent cost of living increase. “People can continue to be eligible for legal aid,” said LSS executive director Mark Benton. “We don’t want to refuse people

for legal aid… simply because inflation has cut into the value of the amount of money they make.” E x e c u t ive d i r e c tor for Island J.A.D.E Society Sian Thomson said that the cost of living increase is not enough. She pointed out that Legal Aid was “essentially obliterated” in 2003 when poverty law matters, life welfare appeals, tenancy issues, and human rights complaints were not covered anymore, and said that the increase only helps those who were

already covered. “Other than the provision of some ‘self help’ services to those who have access to them, are literate, and sophisticated enough to represent themselves if there are no advocates in their communities, a 2.4 per cent increase does nothing for them, it only helps those who have issues already covered,” said Thomson. Benton noted legal aid is “restrictive,” but said that the increase is valuable. “It’s impor tant, because these days as

legal aid has become increasingly restrictive and we’re actually doing something that makes sure that people aren’t arbitrarily cut off legal aid,” said Benton. LSS is also providing additional funding to 24 social service organizations throughout the province that will offer free legal information in their communities, but no new ones in Campbell River. Campbell River does have one legal aid office, Doug Marion, Barrister & Solicitor.

Man sentenced for killing in jealous rage ALISTAIR TAYLOR CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

A remorseful Roger Lapensee was sentenced to five years in jail Monday for killing a man in a jealous rage last year. “I am sincerely sorry for what happened,” Lapensee, his voice choking with emotion, told the court. “If there was anything in this world I could do to change it I would.” T he 48-year-old Campbell River man was charged with second degree murder after an altercation on Aug. 18, 2010. Lapensee flew into a rage when his common law wife returned from a ride on a motorcycle owned by William (Billy) Beaudin, Crown counsel Bruce Goddard told the court. Lapensee told police he thought he saw Beaudin kissing his wife as he helped her remove her helmet. Lapensee approached the pair and be g an hitting Beaudin. Lapensee had a small pocket knife and stabbed Beaudin several times with it, the court was told. Beaudin fell to the ground and Lapensee walked away. He went to the apartment of the

building manager and told him there had been an altercation and that he had stabbed a man who had been “necking with his common law wife,” Goddard said. Police were called and Lapensee “kept saying ‘I stabbed him. I don’t know how much I hurt him,’” Goddard told the court. Lapensee was originally charged with assault with a weapon but Beaudin later died in hospital. When Lapensee was informed of Beaudin’s death, he “appeared shocked,” Goddard said. Lapensee pleaded guilty to manslaughter and on Monday a victim’s impact statement from Beaudin’s parents was presented to the court as were character letters of reference on behalf of Lapensee. Lapensee had two previous convictions for theft but they were over twenty years ago and so old that Lapensee’s record

– Judge Brian Klaver

was considered virtually clean. “On that particular day, a tragedy occured. Several lives were unalterably changed,” Goddard said of the knife attack. T h e C r ow n a n d defence put forward a joint submission agreeing that a fiveyear jail ter m was appropriate. Lapensee’s level of remorse as demonstrated by his early admission immediately after the stabbing and his guilty plea put a five year sentence out of a possible eight year term in line with previous case law presented in the joint submission. Judge Brian Klaver accepted Lapensee’s remorse was genuine but had harsh words for the carrying of weapons, including knives. The judge said he has had to deal with heartbreaking cases where the presence of weapons resulted in tragedy.

“Some cases never leave my memory,” the judge said, “and this is probably going to be another one.” Despite Lapensee’s remorse, the issue for society in this case is the fact that something sent Lapensee into a rage and caused him to take another person’s life. “I can’t help but wonder is there another something out there that is going to send you into a rage?” Judge Klaver said. The nature of a fiveyear sentence allows Lapensee and society time to figure out whether that is the case and what can be done about it, according to Judge Klaver. As for the use of weapons, Judge Klaver said, “There’s a reason why in Canada people are not allowed to carry guns or knives.” “ S o m a ny t i m e s they end up killing the wrong people, If I had my way, nobody in Canada would carry any knife of any size,” the judge said. Lapensee was sentenced to five years in jail, must provide a DNA sample and will be restricted from the use of fire arms for ten years.

Our Water Fall to Winter Lawn Care

2X14

Cool September nights prompt lawns to get ready for winter. Roots dig deeper and the top growth slows down. Here is some advice from a certiﬁed irrigation specialist on how to help your lawn’s winter

CITY OF CR Luisa Richardson

preparations. Are you thinking it’s time to lower your lawn mower blade now that summer is over? Don’t! If you chop off the leafy section of the plant, you will chop off the winter food supply. Longer grass blades store carbohydrates for the winter and support longer roots. They also protect the crown (the section that will produce new shoots and roots next spring) from winter cold. Leave your lawn mower blade at 3” or higher. You can lime now or in the spring. Ease back on watering to support the plant in its quest for deeper roots. Take advantage of the increasing moisture in the soil, thanks to the cool nights; less water will be lost from the lawn through evaporation and transpiration. Don’t forget to “blow-out” and winterize your sprinkler system before turning it off. If you have been fertilizing your grass, now is the time to add a fertilizer with high potassium content. This will thicken the cell wall in roots and shoots to increase cold tolerance. Handle your fertilizer according to the instructions, and prevent excess chemicals from getting into storm drains that lead to our urban salmon-bearing streams and ocean. It is not unusual to find dead Coho or trout fry in neighbourhood streams and rivers in fall after the first rains flush out storm drains. Then settle back to enjoy the winter rains when they come, as your lawn will now weather the water cycle on its own, better prepared and ready for the next spring.

City Hall’s one-of-a-kind green roof is saving energy and cutting down on the city’s heating costs KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

City Hall’s awardwinning green roof is saving the city thousands of dollars a year in energy costs. The roof provides energy savings in part because of its vegetative layer that protects the waterproof membrane from UV damage, temperature variations, and physical damage, says Amber Zirnhelt, the city’s sustainability manager. “Overall energ y consumption at City Hall is on a downward trend, resulting in approximately 25 per cent reduction and savings of almost $15,000 per year at today’s electricity rates based on analysis of data from

2007 to 2011,” Zirnhelt said in a report to council. Both numbers exceed original savings estimates. “Prior to installation of the green roof, staff conservatively forecast a 12.5 per cent reduction in the energy required to heat and cool the building, resulting in approximately $2,100 in cost savings per year,” Zirnhelt said. “Energy savings are the result of increased insulation provided by the g row i n g m e d i u m (soil) and vegetation layer on the roof.” Zirnhelt notes that since the green roof was installed, the city has transitioned to using more efficient lights and turning

lights off when not being used but neither of those actions alone would have provided the level of energy savings the city is seeing. Zirnhelt said the

“

THEY SAID IT: “Overall

consumption at City Hall is on a downward trend”

– Amber Zirnhelt, city sustainability manager

best way to measure the energy savings attributable to the green roof is to look at the months between November and March, when there is the highest demand for heating. “When the average

winter consumption before and after the green roof installation is compared, the results indicate an energy savings of approximately 15 per cent or 53,000 kilowatts per hour, which translates to $4,240 per season at today’s electricity rates,” Zirnhelt said. The city’s green roof was completed in 2009 and Campbell River became the first municipality in B.C. to install such a roof on an existing civic building. Last year, the roof won the National FCM Sustainable Community Awards in the Building Category, from among 40 municipalities, and received Honourable

Mention in the B.C. Climate and Energy Awards. The roof cost $489,039 to build and was funded through federal gas tax funding earmarked for environmental sustainability projects. The green roof falls in line with the city’s 2009-2011 Strategic Plan aimed at environmental sustainability and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. City Hall’s roof consists of a combined upper roof and landscaped courtyard area. The upper roof is modeled after rocky bluffs in the coastal range. The courtyard area is designed to look like a Japanese style garden in recognition of Campbell River’s sister city of Ishikari, Japan. The area is used by city staff as a gathering place.

Our View

A head is not a weapon With the start of football and soccer seasons, and the hockey season imminent, there is renewed attention to concussions. Sidney Crosby, arguably the best player in the National Hockey We say: Time to League, has still not fully recovered get serious about from a concussion sustained in January. He’s likely to miss the concussions in beginning of this season after already missing the last half of last youth sports season plus the playoffs. He’s just the latest, and most prominent, hockey player to be sidelined by concussion. Marc Savard of the Boston Bruins will miss all of the coming season

because of post-concussion syndrome. Players like Eric and Brett Lindros, Paul Kariya, Adam Deadmarsh and Pat Lafontaine have all had their careers cut short because of blows to the head. While pro athletes get the attention, it’s unknown how extensive the problem of concussions is in the amateur, community and weekend warrior ranks. It’s quite apparent the days of dismissing a blow to an athlete’s head as “getting their bell rung,” waving smelling salts under their nose and sending them out for their next shift are over. Trainers, team doctors and sports leagues are now inclined to err on the side of caution when it comes to head injuries. Last year Football BC enacted a new concussion policy

that requires volunteer coaches to stay current with resource material the organization distributes about concussions and they must remove from play any player suspected to have sustained a head injury until they have written clearance from a doctor. While that helps prevent aggravating existing head injuries, it does little to prevent them in the first place. For that coaches and players need to be trained not to use the head as a weapon or a target, and equipment manufacturers have to develop pads and helmets that protect athletes, not turn them into human missiles. – Black Press

Good point: Leadership Regarding Leadership for Campbell River Committee /When Passion is Not Enough. I was at first disbelieving, then I was after a time, amused and then in the end I became disturbed and cynical when thinking about this group of, well, I guess you could call them concerned citizens, who have appointed themselves the power behind the Leadership For Campbell River Committee. In life, I have learned that everything is a metaphor for something and this group is like the Roman Senate searching for it’s very own Cincinnatus...(Google it and learn)...to come riding in on a white stallion to give us all direction and purpose in our lives and save us from ourselves and the mediocrity of the democratic system. Cincinnatus became, in the end, a dictator. I’m picturing this lot, as they were making up the list of requisites for a successful candidate, eyeing each other up and down and reaching an unspoken consensus that none of them, could actually meet any or all of the seven characteristics in the profile either...how sad is that? In his narrative, “We’re not backing a soul,” says Stamp, the head pro filer. “Completely non-partisan,” says he, and oh yes “we’ll be presenting this to the Rotary Clubs.” He didn’t say they would be visiting any Labour Council organizations so I guess anyone caught left leaning need not hope to apply. To quote Stamp, “We are hoping that somebody having a coffee will say, ‘I wouldn’t mind doing that.’” Continued on A13

Private power producers plead their case

Tom Fletcher B.C. Views

B.C.’s private power producers held a news conference here in the capital last week, to plead with the B.C. government not to back down from its target of self-sufficiency in clean energy by 2016. The review panel looking at BC Hydro rates recommended that one way the utility might save money would be to change the definition of self-sufficiency. Currently that means having enough domestic clean electricity supply even in low water years. The B.C. Clean Energy Association was supported by University of Victoria climate scientist Andrew Weaver, who wants B.C. to continue to develop its unique clean energy

resources. That will reduce BC Hydro’s reliance on the open electricity market, and help to reduce demand for further coal and natural gas generation. Weaver says people still skeptical about climate change should check out the current state of Arctic sea ice. It has retreated drastically again this summer and may reach an even smaller size than it did in 2007, which was the biggest melt since satellite records became available in 1979. The five greatest ice retreats have been in the past five years. The U.S. National Snow and Ice Data Centre reported Sept. 6 that both the Northwest Passage through Canada’s Arctic and the sea route north of Russia

“appear to be open.” Another supporter is Judith Sayers, a former chief from Nuu-Chah-Nulth territory on Vancouver Island, who now teaches aboriginal law at the University of Victoria. She talked about how a small hydro power project near Port Alberni allowed her people to learn business, with a light footprint on land recovering from a century of industrial logging. And she said that more than half of the First Nations in B.C. now have some interest in a power project. Association president Paul Kariya explained how critics, notably the NDP’s John Horgan, manipulate rate figures to create an impression that

independent power is hugely overpriced. One out of three proposals never makes it to production. B.C.’s second wind farm, the Dokie project near Chetwynd, went broke, then was taken over and completed by Plutonic Power Corp and General Electric. Here’s an indication of how quickly the clean energy field is evolving: This year Plutonic merged with Magma Energy Corp., which has geothermal assets in Iceland and Nevada. The merged company, Alterra Power Corp., has backed away from the vast Bute Inlet run-of-river proposal on the B.C. coast, but its nearby East Toba and Montrose river generators Continued on A13

OPINION

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 2011 | CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR |

Leave democracy to the people Continued from A12 Some will say, “If only I didn’t have a job and kids to feed and a mortgage, I could do this. I could become a CEO of a business that makes no profit and has no shareholders, and set my own pay scale.. oh wait... it’s municipal government..it’s not actually a business and besides...we have self appointed committees to tell us what we need and who to elect.

I won’t even have to think about ethics or any of that inconvenient stuff.” As to the listed profile, the only two requirement left off were that your mother be a virgin and you must be able to walk across Discovery Passage in a Sou’Easter. The unstated requirement is that you have to be able to follow orders after the election is over and the chain is

around the neck...literally. I have to wonder if some of the past office holders could meet the muster these people have laid out. How did the likes of Tom Barnett, Hugh Campbell, Bob Ostler, Mary Ashley and Jim Lor nie even found their way up to City Hall with out the help of this Leadership Selection Committee? How in hell did we

get along without them when we chose those people who became our key citizens? You have to hand it to them folks, they got chutzpa (that’s unmitigated effrontery). Reality check people – if you don’t like being mocked, stop behaving stupidly. The fact that you have the unmitigated gaul to publicly propose this is really beyond credibility.

Yo u are self appointed authorities in nothing, let alone in determining how we should govern ourselves and existence of this committee and your participation in it reflects a very disturbing ignorance, arrogance and hubris. Park your egos and go back to doing your jobs and leave democracy to the people. Robert E. Kaiser, Campbell River

Fletcher: Devastation is in the eye of the beholder Continued from A12

and the Dokie wind farm have performed better than expected. The Bute project won’t go anywhere until the North American power market changes dramatically. Currently the market is low, due mainly to an abundance of cheap natural gas and govd

Drop us r a line

er nment-subsidized wind power in the U.S. Horgan claims private investment is a nefarious scheme to create a “parallel generating system” for private profit. That seems to be his key criterion for acceptable small hydro: as long as nobody makes a profit.

Professional environmentalists claim rivers have been destroyed. Their favourite villain, Ashlu Creek near Squamish, has been running smoothly for nearly two years, its critics silenced. A new run-of-river cluster around Harrison Lake has energized two remote native vil-

lages. I’ve seen these things, from constr uction stage to mature operation. If that’s your idea of devastation, you should get out more, and acquaint yourself with the history of logging in particular. And if you’re going to insinuate that this is

Decide what you want out of the tank; a small tank with just a few fish or a larger tank that you can set up with “layers” of fish and a few “centrepiece” fish? Do you want a fully planted tank or one that’s easier with artificial plants? Once you decide on the Sarah Kirk size and intended type, then you need a level place for Owner it to go. When you get into any tank, buying the stand with the tank is a great base for the tank, BUT you still need it to be level. We have Fluval and Marina tanks and kits from 5 gallons up to 100 gallons in stock, many with matching stands! First step in setting up is to wash your gravel with cool water and add it to the tank, fill the tank with water, plug in your heater, and decorate using wood, ornaments, fake or real plants etc. On the day of setup you want to remove all the chlorine from the water using Nutrafin Aquaplus, which not only removes chlorine and chloramines, but it neutralizes heavy metals. Then you start the tank “cycling” using Nutrafin Cycle. This adds a BIG boost of good bacteria to the tank so that it can process fish waste once fish are added. This is a 3 day process. After your 3d dose of Cycle, you can add your first fishes! It is important to go slow, not to add ALL the fish at the same time. Cycling your tank with Nutrafin CYCLE properly makes “New Tank Syndrome” less likely. Next month; Proper Tank Maintenance.

S T R E P X E What is an AED?

850F 12th Ave., Campbell River 250.287.2310

An AED is an Automated External Deﬁbrillator which is a compact, self contained machine designed to assist in resuscitating a person in cardiac arrest. An AED analyzes the heart and determines if there is a normal or abnormal heart rhythm. If the AED determines that there is an abnormal hearth rhythm, the AED uses electrical energy from a battery pack to interrupt Jennifer Comeau the abnormal heart rhythm and allow a normal heart rhythm to resume. An Branch Manager AED will not shock a normal, beating heart. An AED, when applied within one to two minutes of collapse from cardiac arrest can improve the chances of survival up to 90% and for every minute that an AED is delayed, the chances of survival decrease by 10%. After approximately twelve minutes, the chances of survival for cardiac arrest are less than 5%. As a result, an AED can drastically increase a person’s chances of surviving and recovering from cardiac arrest.

Under an estate freeze, the current value of the portfolio is frozen in a corporation for your benefit while allowing future growth to accrue to others – such as your children or a charitable organization.

In particular, if the value of the corporation has declined since the freeze, it may be possible to re-freeze your preferred shares at a lower value, thereby reducing the amount that will be taxed on your death.

Why does my pet need an exam for prescription medications?

» Veterinarian

» Naturopathic Physician

Dr. Ingrid Pincott ND

First of all, chewing is a very normal and natural thing for any puppy or dog to do. Unfortunately they often chew the wrong thing like the couch or shoes because the owner hasn’t trained their puppy what he can chew and aren’t supervising the puppy properly. Use a kennel or a gated off area to restrict the puppy roaming around and finding something to chew on when Cathy Merrithew you can’t be watching him. Invest in at least 2 (or more) KONG toys, they’re hollow so they can be stuffed with the puppy’s meals or treats, give one to your puppy when you go out, he’ll work at getting the food out of it and tire himself out….I also love the Buster Cube - a treat dispensing toy that’ll entertain your puppy for hours and hours. If you find him chewing the wrong thing, redirect to what you want him to chew, and make sure not to leave anything where he can reach it…. I’d also suggest upping the exercise your puppy is getting, a “Tired Puppy is a Good Puppy!” Most puppies or adult dogs don’t get enough physical and/or mental exercise, and that’s why they find things to keep themselves busy. If they can’t chew, they might decide to bark or dig instead…..Try hiding treats out in the yard and sending him to go find them, anything to let him use his nose for hunting will certainly wear him out plus he’ll have fun doing it! A walk where he can sniff and investigate will tire him out more than chasing a ball or Frisbee…

I have WCB coverage – why do I need disability insurance?

When I get my bioidentical hormones prescribed by you why do I have to get yearly salivary hormone testing done? Over the years I have seen women who have been on bioidentical estradiol and progesterone for years who have never been followed up. Dr. Ingrid Pincott ND Their hormones are way out of Naturopathic Physician balance and they wonder why they don’t feel so well any more. Bioidentical hormones are not without some risk and must be prescribed with caution. Most women don’t know that progesterone can feed into the estrogen pathway raising estrogen levels and potentially increasing estrogen dominance. Naturopathic physicians prescribe bioidentical hormones in lower dosages and use the weaker estrogen, estriol , rather than estradiol.

The laws regarding prescription medications are very similar for animals and humans. For a veterinarian to prescribe a medication they need, at the very least, Dr. Kevin Penner a valid “client/patient/doctor Veterinarian relationship.” The bare minimum to establish and maintain this relationship is an annual physical exam. Every medication has potential side effects and a veterinarian, just like a doctor, has to weigh the beneﬁt of a medication against the potential side effects. One of the most helpful tools in making that decision is a physical exam. For these reasons we won’t dispense prescription medications until we’ve examined an animal for their current condition.

In refinancing your home, you can gain access up to 85% of the value, take care of those 18 - 27% credit cards and loans and lines of credit just in case you are going to be impacted through either your income or changes in your life. It is clear we are going to make it through these tough economic times, but with the stock market turmoil, various European countries and the United States still going through these tough times, we are affected up in the north.

Nanoparticles are as tiny as 1/100,000 the width of human hair.

Under the new changes to the Power of Attorney Gurdeep Sidhu, CGA act, the Power of Attorney Notary Public prepared in another province is considered valid. However, as the Power of Attorney documents differ from province to province, an opinion from a lawyer from that province is required. If an individual cannot prepare a new Power of Attorney due to circumstances such as mental incapacity, then the lawyer’s opinion may be the best possible solution. However, by preparing a B.C.

Coved ceilings curve down to become walls with no visible separation. To define the walls Evelyn M as separate from the ceilings Interior Designer we could have installed plate rails but instead we achieved the desired result by painting the ceilings white, and then painted a pin stripe of the wall colour just below the cove and then a pin stripe of the ceiling white and then the wall colour down to the floor. We did this using 3 rows of painters tape and the final effect is simple yet effective. To see the finished result go to the portfolio section of our website and look for Danielle’s Living and Dining space.

Summer is winding down and before we know it winter will be upon us. Winter tires will give you the extra traction, braking and handling you need to give you peace of mind on snow and ice. Winter tires are made from Dave Bastock specialized rubber compounds Service Manager to handle cold temperatures, while the tread remains ﬂexible to prevent snow build up and help with traction on ice. Tests conducted on ice show that even at twenty kilometres per hour, vehicles equipped with winter tires stopped half to a full car length faster than the identical vehicle with all season tires. Winter tires have already been produced for this season and we as customers tend to wait for the snow to fall before ordering, meanwhile the rest of Canadian consumers have already ordered a lot of the tires available making them harder to acquire come the winter months. No more procrastination, it is time now to place your order for winter tires.

Why is it time to start thinking about winter tires?

Good idea. They’re a clean look and can be effective lighting. But before you plan your lighting, you should know this about pot lights: 1) they throw light down, but not to the sides, so it requires quite a few of them Randy Beaulieu, Owner to light an area. 2) because many are needed, they are expensive, $65 to $95 installed. A kitchen, for example, will require 5 to 10 pot lights to do what one or two ﬁxtures will do. 3) Most importantly, pot lights are only effective if they are positioned properly. Do yourself a favour, don’t trust your lighting layout to anyone except a lighting professional. It’s a lot cheaper and easier to get it right the ﬁrst time.

Some prices are deceptive when you book through an online travel site. Online travel sites are proud that they save you money.They claim to make this possible by selling large volumes Christina Peterson, of travel (such as a price club) and by taking a smaller commission on these Flight Centre Associate sales. However, while there is truth to this, they often make their money through people who cancel or do not travel, as most of the time there are no returns. Also, when you book your package, the price may not cover a number of other fees, such as a daily resort fee, an out of state car fee or some other taxes and fees that are asked to be paid at the airport, resort or cruise ship. So, the fact is that you do not always save as much as you think. Travel agents include all of these things in their pricing. So there are no hidden costs.

You use a vacuum cleaner on a regular basis, on an average of 2 or 3 times a week. When the machine breaks down you will have to decide to repair or purchase a new one. Most people decide to purchase a new vacuum cleaner and wonder how much to spend. In some cases a tune up is needed and is cheaper than purchasing a new machine.

Are you squinty?

Keep Your Vacuum Cleaner Running.

Squinting is what happens when your eyes aren’t protected from the dangers of bright light and glare. Whether you have an eyeglass prescription or not, you only have one pair of eyes. They deserve the comfort, convenience and protection by reducing eyestrain and eye fatigue. You choose frames to enhance your style but what about choosing the lenses to enhance your vision? Ask Susan Ward about the lenses that adapt to your life. Transitions lenses suit anytime of the day. CONVENIENCE-you do not have to change glasses when going outdoors and vice-versa. COMFORT-you squint less and are less inconvenienced by glare, which reduces eye strain. PROTECTION-your eyes are protected from harmful uv rays, contributing to good eye health. Talk to your Eyecare Professionals at Maycock Optical how transitions lenses can contribute to maintaining good eye health and improving your visual comfort in all lighting conditions.

Your child is never too young to be read to! Reading aloud to babies teaches them about communication; it introduces concepts such as stories, numbers, colours and shapes; it builds listening, memory and vocabulary skills and it gives them information about the world around them. Perhaps Erika Anderson more importantly, it allows babies to hear your voice and strengthens your bond. Children who are read to regularly during their early years have been shown to develop more vocabulary and learn to read sooner than those who were not read to. Some parents start reading to their babies when they are still in the womb. It is believed that after birth the baby will respond to the pattern in your voice from hearing a story book read to them repeatedly before birth and the familiarity can help to calm them. So, the next time you are looking for a gift for a baby or child, keep in mind that a book provides lasting memories as well as a huge beneﬁt to their developing brains.

Why should I book with a Travel Consultant VS booking Online? Isnt an online travel site more economical?

So you want to use pot lights?

Some people still think that the space bar is the mo most important key on the keyboard when wh it comes to formatting a document. Sharilyn Irving People use tthe space bar to center text on a pag page, they use the space bar to create ind indents, and they use the space bar to create tables and columns.This, This I guarantee, drives everyone who works in a print shop, copy shop, oor any kind of service bureau that deals with customers ﬁles, crazy. The space ba bar is used for one thing and one thing only – to separate two words. In MS Word, Publisher, and every other text publishing/creation program, the there is the ability to format text, which includes centering. Also, you can use the tab button on your computer to create indents and most pro programs these days give you the option of creating tables to make tabl tables for your data, lists and recipes. The reason I stress using these options as opposed to using the space bar is tthat when you take a document in to a service bureau for printing, tthe formatting stays truer to what you had intended. This will ens ensure that your prints, copies, etc. will look like what you had in mind rather than have words all over the space.

hat was once a flat, gravelly, dead zone is well on the way back to its natural state. Connected to the Campbell River Estuary, the area that was once an old sawmill site looks very different than it did just a year ago. Now, instead of a lifeless gravel area, there’s a creek running through the middle to meet up with Baikie Slough, and new plants are being protected by plastic orange fencing. “You can see it’s working,” said project manager Jim Van Tine. “You can certainly notice a difference in the vegetation because before it was a flat lot.” The two acre site, which is located between Robinson Rd. and E and B Helicopters, belonged to Ocean Blue Cedar Products, but was bought by the Nature Conservancy of Canada in 2007 after the mill closed. In Aug. 2010 heavy machinery work began by moving gravel and soil to recreate the creek and make islands. Back when the sawmill was in operation, the creek had been diverted and ran through a culvert for the length of the property before pouring out into the slough. Van Tine worked to ‘daylight’ the creek by moving it out of the long culvert and back to its original location, which goes through a small culvert under the highway on its way from Campbell River, and then comes through the middle of the property on its way to meet the slough. Then, in the fall he and his crew planted native plants along the riparian zone, which runs along the tideline of the slough.

And in February, a crew of about 45 volunteers came out to plant natural marsh grass in the tidal area of the slough. The marsh grasses are what’s protected by the fences because the Canadian geese “eat them like candy,” according to Van Tine. “So now we’ve got numerous bushes and plants, and we’ve got a marsh growing, and we’ve got a creek flowing,” said Van Tine. Although the marsh grasses are just short clumps right now, Van Tine said that within three years it will be fully developed, and in the peak growing season it will be chest high. According to Van Tine, the marshes act like compost when they decompose, meaning that small bugs feed on the rotting material, then big bugs feed on them, and then fish feed on the bigger bugs, and then birds feed on the fish, and so it goes. “The primary object here is fish but when we do a fish project a lot of other things benefit too,” explained Van Tine. “Without these marshes the estuary would be far, far less productive.” Although Van Tine said it’s basically impossible to tell how many more fish will be in Campbell River thanks to the rebuilt area, small coho salmon can be seen swimming in a pool area of the creek. Van Tine said the project should take about three to five years to be fully established, and points out that these kinds of projects take time. “It takes patience,” said Van Tine. “Look here and you can see these little trees,” he added as he pointed to small trees running along the creek. “They’re four or five feet high and they’re all kind of spindly, but in 20 years you’ll be able to sit underneath them.”

This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Duck Race will end at the Campbell River Lodge despite earlier plans to change the location. The Campbell River Daybreak Rotary Club had announced Monday that the finish line would be moved to an area at the end of Maple Street, on Campbell River Indian Band land. However, on such short

notice, the provincial government would not allow a change to the original location â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Campbell River Lodge â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in Rotaryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gaming grant application. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to be back at the Campbell River Lodge,â&#x20AC;? confirmed Dave Free, President of Rotary, on Tuesday morning.

Jim Byrnes & the Sojourners

he Campbell River Festival of Films will launch its Fall 2011 season on Sept. 27. In partnership with the Tidemark Theatre and the Toronto International Film Circuit, the Film Festival will now present its unique program of films on Tuesdays, Sept. 27, Oct. 11, Oct. 25, Nov. 8 and Nov. 22 at 7 p.m. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m. The Fall 2011 season’s passes are on sale at The Travel Place (286-0681), 948 Island Highway. The

passes will sell for $45 and entitle the holder to five films plus a series of draws at each screening. Individual tickets may be purchased at the door for $12 each. The directors of the festival hope that by moving to the larger Tidemark venue, more people will be able to enjoy the unique films and enjoy the wonderful ambiance of the Tidemark as well. Patrons can gather in the lobby after the movie for a glass of wine and an opportunity to discuss the

movie of the night with friends and other movie-goers. The festival is a successful partnership that was established 13 years ago with the Toronto International Film Festival film circuit. The partnership allows the Campbell River group to book films and shorts directly from Toronto that would not normally make their way to Campbell River movie theatres. The season begins with The First Grader on Sept. 27 followed

by Eco-Pirate: The Story Of Paul Watson on Oct. 11. On Oct. 25 it will be The WhistleBlower. Festival organizers are awaiting confirmation of Oranges And Sunshine on Nov. 8. The season finale will be on Nov. 22 and they are hoping to get one of the films currently premiering at the Toronto Film Festival and that title will be announced when the season is underway. The organizers want everyone to know that all the proceeds go directly back to our

community. Each year, bursaries and camera equipment are given out to local students and schools. In previous years, the Festival has also put on bonus screenings that have helped to raise thousands of dollars to support various worthwhile programs in Campbell River. So head down to The Travel Place to get your season’s passes before they sell out. For further information, please contact the CRFF at camrivff@gmail.com
