This is the first time that Springer has ever seen fin whales in local waters in all of the years he’s been working on the coast. Normally inhabitants of the Arctic, they can grow to up to 60 feet long.

John Hart Dam compensation talks in jeopardy RENÉE ANDOR CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Since 2007, two First Nations groups have been seeking compensation from BC Hydro for lost land near the proposed John Hart Replacement Project, and they say that talks are now close to breaking down. The We Wai Kai and Wei Wai Kum First Nations had part of their land flooded when the generating station was built in 1947 and they received no compensation at that time.

According to negotiations coordinator Rod Naknakim, BC Hydro was going to make an offer to the bands last Friday, but failed to do so for the second time during negotiations. “They said they were going to come back with an offer twice and they haven’t made an offer yet so the chiefs are very frustrated about it,” explained Naknakim. “We’re either going to have to come up with a break through or else it’s going to fall apart.” BC Hydro is keeping quiet about the details of negotiations,

and when asked about the reason it has not yet made an offer, referred to a statement made in a news release. “Out of respect for the process and parties involved, we will refrain from commenting publicly about the details of our discussions,” said Chris O’Riley, BC Hydro Executive Vice-President, Generation in the release. Naknakim said the First Nations want a share of the revenue that would be generated by the replacement station as compensation. “What we were proposing was

The bands have asked for a written offer from BC Hydro, and a meeting will be scheduled once they receive one. Although BC Hydro would not comment on whether the project Continued on A11

No single force stands out as the main culprit behind the die-off of millions of Fraser River sockeye salmon in recent years, according to findings tabled at the Cohen Commission. A new report analyzing cumulative impacts on sockeye suggests the fish most likely died at sea, not in the Fraser itself or one of its tributaries. It points to ocean conditions and climate change as two “likely” factors that may have contributed to the long-term stock decline, particularly as juvenile sockeye migrate out from the mouth of the river to Queen Charlotte

Inquiry: Final days of hearings Continued from A1 Sound and beyond into the open Pacific. “It is very likely that poor marine conditions during the coastal migration life stage in 2007 contributed to the poor returns observed in 2009,” the cumulative impacts report says. It notes water temperatures were much cooler in 2008, and the better conditions for salmon may have been part of the reason for 2010’s sur prisingly large run. Climate change and ocean conditions may also play a role further out at sea, it says. “Some impor tant predators appear to be increasing in numbers and some prey are decreasing,” it notes, rating that as a “possible” contributor to

declines. The report was prepared by consultants ESSA Technologies Ltd. and lead author David Marmorek testified at the commission earlier this week. His role was to distill the findings of a dozen other scientific reports conducted for the commission to probe separate potential threats to sockeye. The report found no conclusion is possible on the impact of pathogens and diseases in the sockeye decline. It cited widely diverging scientific opinions of the inquiry’s two researchers who studied the possible role of salmon farms. They found diseases from the farms might play a role but completely disagreed in interpreting the actual

evidence. ESSA’s report did note they agreed sea lice, escaped Atlantic salmon and waste from the farms were all unlikely to play a significant role. It’s also unlikely, the report found, that Lower Mainland land use or upriver factors ranging from logging and mining to agriculture or hydroelectric projects were primary drivers of the decline. Similarly, pre-spawn mortality of returning sockeye caused by habitat changes or contaminants were unlikely factors. There are plenty of unanswered questions that were beyond the scope of the commission’s technical reports and therefore weren’t considered by their teams of researchers,

Marmorek noted. Large releases of hatchery fish may compete with salmon for food or attract predators to the same area, he suggests. That may also be a factor with pink salmon. The report notes there’s evidence pink salmon from Alaska and Russia compete alongside Fraser sockeye in the Nor th Pacific and could cause food shortages that hurt sockeye numbers in years with large numbers of pinks. It also raises the question of whether the 2008 eruption of an Alaskan volcano naturally fertilized the ocean with ash and boosted food supplies, leading to the supercharged return of 30 million sockeye in 2010.

NIA DON’S AD

Marmorek calls for more research on various salmon stressors, particularly in the early ocean stage. The Cohen inquiry is in its final days of hearings, with senior officials now taking the stand from the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. A final report is due next year. The judicial inquiry led by retired Judge Br uce Cohen was called by the federal government after less than 1.5 million sockeye returned in 2009, far fewer than the more than 10 million expected.

Regional District may help protect three lighthouses “The lightstation facility on Lookout Island has been declared surplus and would not be considered for heritage status unless a sponsoring organization could be found to protect its heritage character,” said Brian Reardon, the regional district’s chief administrative officer in a report to the board. The Canadian government is allowing individuals and local governments to nominate lighthouses for protection as long as petitions are received by May 2012. Jim Abram, vicechair of the regional board and a former lightkeeper, was made aware of the opportunity by former senator, and lightkeeper advocate, Pat Carney, a couple of months ago. He presented the board with Carney’s letters more than a month ago and has been frustrated by how long it has taken the

KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The Strathcona Regional District may circulate a petition to save three area lighthouses. Nearly one month after the Regional District board debated applying for heritage status for the landmarks, the board voted on whether to initiate petitions Thursday after the Mirror went to press. Separate petitions would be required to protect lighthouses located at Chatham Point, Nootka and Cape Mudge. If the petitions were successful, the lightstations would be exempt from any future demolition or sale under the federal government’s Heritage Lighthouse Protection Act. The Regional District recently learned a fourth beacon, an inactive lighthouse at Lookout Island near Kyuquot, is not eligible under the act.

Regional District to make a decision. “The (August) report that came from staff didn’t tell us anything,” Abram said last month. “Because of that some of the other directors didn’t want to proceed until it goes back to staff for a full report that should have come to us the first time.” Abram has been fighting for

lighthouses for the past 25 years. The most recent battle came last year when the government threatened to de-staff lightstations. Around the same time, the Heritage Lighthouse Protection Act was legislated (May 2010)

after the Canadian government declared a number of lightstations surplus to operational need.

Jakeway said if Fusion is elected, it would also work to cut back on the number of council meetings each month. He said a lot of work has been going on behind the scenes to prepare the group for an election campaign and he’s eager to see how it all unfolds. “There has been much preparation invested into this effort with several organizational meetings and rigorous refinement of the goals through the summer,” Jakeway said. “It should be interesting to see the positive outcome.” Civic elections take place once every three years.

She is full of energy and needs to be kept active and stimulated. Ivory does know basic commands, she walks well on a leash and really does love people interaction. A family that enjoys outdoor activities or someone who wants a new jogging partner would be ideal for her. Ivory has a lot of potential. Ivory should not be left alone outside unattended as she has been known to be a bit of an escape artist! Ivory will be a great candidate for training classes, and would be best suited to go to a home with older children that have good doggy etiquette. In the right home Ivory will be a wonderful girl!

Our View

Keep debates civil With the upcoming municipal elections, which are shaping up to be the most contentious and prickly of the past decade, there will undoubtedly be a number of loud, and likely, disrespectful voices being raised. We say: Mind While this is no different than most years, why does it have to be your manners way? when discussing this Call it naive, but we believe it’s the issues possible to have a debate about important issues without the language and rhetoric descending to a schoolyard level.

There have beenmany contentious issues during the term of this council and people have strong feelings about them. Strong feelings are acceptable, strong language isn’t. No one runs for public office expecting to please everyone, and for there to be nothing but nice discussions, framed within the rules of good behaviour. The lead-up to the election promises to be rife with pot shots, and some may be well deserved. But there is a limit, and what any right-thinking individual should object to is the language used to

express this discontent. While some will argue their anger with councillors and the mayor is just and has prompted them to act in this less-than-polite manner, and is therefore permissible, we disagree. Use the manners we were taught as children. Nothing is gained by acting and speaking boorishly or derisively, or stooping to using personal attacks. This group of politicians, like all the others in this province, will have to stand on their individual and collective records on Nov. 19, and the public will judge them with votes. – Black Press

Good point: Mayor As a former deputy mayor in another city who is not a candidate for the job, I wish to present the following observations on the job description presented by the ad hoc committee regarding the next mayor. But before I do, I wish to thank Charlie for his public service for 12 of the last 15 years and wish him well on his political retirement. While their recommendations are strong they are describing the attributes of the chief administrator, not the chief politician. It is no accident that the mayor only gets a three-year term and is paid a rate at the level of a custodian. The mayor is paid only for his/her political skill and leadership representing the electorate, part of which includes confidence and communication skills but, first and foremost, their political acumen. Political acumen is simply what it takes to get elected. The defeat road is littered with candidates with some or all of the attributes on the ad hoc list, but no clue how to go about being elected. On the other hand, Ralph Klein, a highschool dropout, with strong media savvy became one of Calgary’s most effective mayors. His credo “figure out what people are thinking and get out in front of the parade and lead it” is a perfect definition. A major component of political acumen is motivation on so many levels.

My recipe for cooking kale is always in demand

Morgan Ostler Urban Gardener

Chiffonading is a posh sounding description for a very simple leafy vegetable dish. Chiffon is French for rag and is a cooking technique in which herbs or leafy greens such as spinach, beet leaves, basil or kale are cut into long thin strips. This is accomplished by stacking leaves, rolling them tightly, then cutting across the rolled leaves with a sharp knife, producing fine ribbons. Cut out the stems first if they look tough. I did a column on chiffonading almost two years ago, not that I used that particular word at the time to describe the process. However, people continue to stop me in the street and ask for the kale recipe and I love to share the steps that convert the nutrient rich kale into a delicious

addition to your meals. So…here we go. In a heavy frying pan melt a tablespoon of oil and a knob of butter in medium heat. Toss in a small spoonful of grated ginger and the same amount of chopped garlic. Then add a tablespoon of water. I often add a pinch of sugar if the leaves are coarse. Mix the greens well with the other ingredients and use a heavy lid on the pan. After three or four minutes, on medium heat, pop the lid and the kale should turn intensely deep green and be ready to serve. It will make a delicious addition to your plate as well as a visual treat. In September, as mentioned in the past column, I visited Powell River in order to experience the annual Edible Garden contest.

I picked up two new ideas from a contestant in Lund, which is north of Powell River. He had cleared a small garden site out of a deeply forested area and was successfully producing a variety of food stuffs and fruit. He told me one of his secrets for growing great grub was to feed the plants horsetail tea. Now that interested me as I am so enamoured with the new famous chicken dung tea. He claims that because horsetail has such deep roots it draws up nutrients from the earth that are not available to shallow rooted plants. To prepare the tea he harvests armfuls of the plant and chops it into smaller lengths. It is then left to soak in a large barrel for a couple of weeks while it gradually turns to a deep green brew.

He then siphons the liquid out of the barrel and uses it in the same way that we traditionally fertilize our plants. Composting our kitchen waste is a fairly easy process but what to do with the coarse stalks left over from clearing the garden and cleaning out the handing baskets can be a problem. The horsetail farmer made it look easy. He took a big clear plastic sack and tossed in all the garden refuse and small pruned branches. Then he sprinkled in a bit of water, tied the sack up and left it lying on the ground in the direct sun. He claims that by next spring all his scraps will have turned to sod. Now that is a tidy solution and if it works it is actually a brilliant solution! That’s one I must try.

Mayor: Must lean heavily on staff

Dam: Bands threaten legal action been circulating about how it will be paid for. O’Riley said that while BC Hydro is focused on reaching an agreement with the First Nations, it is considering ratepayers as well. “We are focused on reaching an agreement that is fair and meaningful for everyone involved in the proposed John Hart Replacement Project and for our ratepayers,” he said. According to BC Hydro, it will announce information about hydro rates when it applies for project approval to the B.C. Utilities Commission this spring. If BC Hydro receives approval, work on the station could begin as soon as summer of 2013, according to BC Hydro spokesperson Stephen Watson.

COMPLETE Physical Workout 3x3

Continued from A10 port to be elected, one must be able to motivate both council and staff to support one’s vision. It is difficult to convince the city-wide elected council with, in some cases, more votes than the mayor that they should follow the mayor’s lead. If one is a good motivator one can work with the majority at all times to implement one’s vision. Since you don’t necessarily have a deep understanding of all aspects of administration you must lean heavily on the staff expertise to guide you. If it is missing, you must develop a strategy to either hire experts or enlist the public to help via the committee route. Yes, you have to have the basics of finances down, but you have to rely on your chief financial officer to get the financial house in order. The mayor’s job is to work with the chief administrative officer and council to fill the position with a manager with “deep understanding” of the job. It will be a challenge to the next mayor because during the same decade of uncertain political leadership we have gone through the same number of chief administrators. No wonder the staff and council are seen to be having difficulties with direction because of inconsistent leadership. I don’t know of any community that has gone through so much uncertainty with both crucial positions revolving over the same period of time. In agreeing with the committee regarding the “transitional moment” in our economic history I trust that they will accept that the role of mayor tis different than corporate president. I know that gwe agree that “We must look for new ways to look dforward.” Most of all, we must end this political and cadministrative uncertainty if we are, in fact, to nsucceed as a community.

Naknakim said that the bands are now speaking to their lawyers about their legal options, and he said that if a deal isn’t reached soon, legal action is a possibility. “We’d have to consider the legal route I suppose,” said Naknakim. “When you’ve got one of the parties that’s not even willing to consider your issues it’s very difficult to engage in any other way.” The proposed project would cost $1.35 billion, and rumours have

OPINION

HEROES – The dogs in Campbell River who have managed to train their owners properly. Unfortunately, even though we know dogs are smarter than humans, some of you pooches have not yet managed to train your human. Here are a few of the basics they need and have to learn: 1. Make sure they learn the City Animal Control Bylaws thoroughly – all dogs must be on a leash at all times unless behind a fenced yard; 2. – Make sure your human knows how to pick up your poop and dispose of it hygienically (not hung up in trees.) This is also in the City bylaws; 3. If your human is trained enough to grocery shop, then remind it to keep grocery bags to pick your poop up with. Make sure they bring it with them on their walkies Humans forget sometimes; 4. Don’t let your human encourage you to chase wildlife, after all, you wouldn?t ask your human to chase deer etc. would you; 5. When your human is ready for it?s walk, fasten it securely to the other end of your leash and make sure the human knows how to hold onto it tightly; 6. Don’t let your human be rude to other humans who need to see leashes and poop bags used; 7. Finally, if you can’t manage to train your human, then suggest to it that they give you to a human who is fully trained. HEROES – The City of Campbell River’s Recreation and Culture Department would like to thank all the summer

community sponsors of the second annual Fun-a-Rama Picnic for families of children & youth with special needs and foster families. It was a fun filled day at Hagel Park. Special thanks go out to MCFD and staff, Strathcona Regional District, Thrifty Foods, Quality Foods and Rona Building Center.

Leaders in Training (L.I.T.) participants for their hard work and dedication. The L.I.T. program allows youth to expand their leadership skills through a leadership training workshop and volunteer placements throughout the summer in Kids Camps provided by the Recreation and Culture Department. Without these dedicated L.I.T.s, the camps would not run as smoothly. They are an extra set of eyes and ears for the camp leaders. The 34 youth were tasked with leading games and crafts, setting a good example and being a role model for the campers. Through the program, they built skills that will help them later in life when they are applying for jobs in the community. For successful program participants, the opportunity exists to become a junior leader, which allows them to take on more responsibility and tasks within select camps. And, three junior leaders were involved in this year’s summer program. Thanks again to all summer participants! – Leah Knutson, L.I.T. Coordinator

Across the road the 1st C.R. Scouts with their leader Nigel Lambeth and resident Carol Couture are doing similar work on the opposite side of the road as far west as Campbellton School.

CAROL SHEEHAN Campbell River’s outstanding young pianist, Carter Johnson, has returned home from the Canadian Federation of Music Teachers’ Associations’ National Piano Competition in Regina with arms full of awards. Chosen as BC’s representative, Carter has a string of accomplishments and awards that are all the more impressive considering he is only 14-years-old. Seasoned indeed. Beginning piano lessons at age 5, and ever championed by his Gabriola Island grandmother, Lorna Davison, Carter represented the North

Island at the Provincial Competition for six consecutive years. He won first place at the 2009 Junior Canadian Provincial competition, and first in both the Ruth Scott Chopin Competition and the prestigious Continued on A16

Campbell River Living Family re-creates itself after facing unemployment RENÉE ANDOR CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

A Campbell River family had two choices – to stay or go – and they chose to stay. In 2008, when Catalyst Paper’s Campbell River pulp and paper mill shut down and the logging industry took a sharp downturn, Eduardo Arriaza and his brother-in-law, James Lethbridge, lost their jobs. With families to support, they could either find work elsewhere and split up their extended family, or they could stay in town and do something different. “We had to either leave the area or try to figure something out, and we did,” said Arriaza. Arriaza, his two sisters, Solé MacDougall and Fab Lethbridge, his brother-in-law James Lethbridge, and his wife Maritte, co-founded Zudora in 2009. Zudora is a jewelry home party business, similar to tupperware parties or candle parties. Fab said that the family got creative when the two men

GET READY FOR FALL

Consultants sell Zudora jewelry, but they market themselves and are considered individual businesses. Since it started, Zudora has grown; it now has an office in downtown Campbell River, and has spread to Alberta, Ontario, and New Brunswick, with consultants on the way for Saskatchewan and Manitoba. And the business is hosting a fundraiser, Shake and Shine for Childhood Cancer Canada Foundation on Fri. Sept. 30, from 6-9 p.m. at the Paramount Music Hall. The event will be filled with latin and belly dancing music, while Stereo Fitness does a massive Zumba class. Fab estimates that around 200-300 people will come out to shake it for a cause. Tickets are $10 and can be picked up at RENÉE ANDOR/THE MIRROR Zudora or Stereo Fitness, and Zudora Fab Lethbridge (from left), James Lethbridge, Solé MacDougall, Eduardo Arriaza, and Maritte Arriaza.

ously the need to infor m the public about salmon farming in BC,” said Walling. “ H av i n g a we e k where we highlight this as a priority for us and the community is a good motivation to keep focusing on education about salmon farming.” The BCSFA represents salmon far m companies and those who supply services and supplies to the industry. Salmon farming provides for 6,000 direct and indirect jobs while contributing $800-million to the provincial economy each year.

B.C. Salmon Farmer’s hoped to improve public understanding during Aquaculture Awareness Week this past week. “Our farmers are proud of the contribution we make to coastal communities and it’s important to them that people understand what we do and how important it is that we do it well,” said Mary Ellen Walling, Executive Director of the BC Salmon Farmers Association (BCSFA). In July, Campbell River council approved a proclamation for Aquaculture Awareness Week which ran from Sept. 19 to 23, following a request by the BCSFA. The proclamation recognizes the important role that aquaculture – particularly salmon farming – plays in Campbell River, and the BCSFA’s goal of better educating the public about their members’ operations and opportunities. The BCSFA engages in many public events to share information about the industry: including four food shows a year, Oceans Day, the PNE, presentations to community organizations, public farm tours and more. On Sept. 22 the BCSFA hosted its Annual General Meeting - drawing colleagues from across Canada to talk about the latest projects and innovations of the industry, both globally and nationally. Gold sponsor for this year’s event was feed company Skretting North America, and bronze sponsors i n c l u d e d C r e a t ive Salmon, Grieg Seafood, EWOS Canada and Northen Ropes. A trivia contest about BC’s salmon farming industry ran in both local papers, and was posted to the BCSFA website Sept. 21. There was also awards of recognition given to some Island residents who have done a lot to learn about and support this important business. “We take very seri-

The concession at Strathcona Gardens lost thousands of dollars last year, calling its sustainability into question. The Strathcona Gardens Commission received a report last month “to address concerns expressed about the continued operation of the Strathcona Gardens concession” said Brian Reardon, Chief Administrative Officer for the Strathcona Regional District. Last year the concession suffered a $16,924 loss, generating revenues of $112,873. Factoring in profits $11,254 from the vending machine, the overall loss for food ser-

vices can be reduced to $5,670. Yves Bienvenu, manager of facility services, says the concession is almost entirely dependent upon the number of customers swimming or using the area. He attributes the decline in sales to the pool closure and less people attending Storm hockey games. “For 2010, concession revenues associated with swimming and arena accounted for 93 per cent of total food services revenues,” Bienvenu says. “Generally, the highest attended pools and arenas generate the highest concession revenues. When we consider all the pool upgrades and renovations along with declining attendance at many

of our major events, our revenues followed suit showing a decline in sales.” While pool attendance dropped from 43,621 in 2008 to 25,813 last year, concession sales also nose-dived – by 17 per cent. Bienvenu also says attendance at Storm games is on a downward trend and could also be affecting concession sales. The concession, which employs two full-time and four to five part-time seasonal employees, has made changes to operations and menu choices to increase revenue and reduce costs. One of those changes has been to reduce staffing hours from March to May to coincide with program activities.

They say memories are golden, well maybe that is true, We never wanted memories, we only wanted you. A million times we needed you, a million times we cried. If love alone could have saved you, you never would have died. In life we loved you dearly, in death we love you still, In our hearts you hold a place that no one could ever ďŹ ll. If tears could build a stairway and heartache make a lane, Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d walk to the ends of the earth to bring you back again.

Drive Smart BC

A chance to learn about depression

2011 GENERAL LOCAL ELECTIONS

Work in Progress Hey, that machine is driving on the wrong side of the road! Can that utility truck park like that while they fix the overhead wires? These are just two of similar questions that the public often ask. The answer is yes, as long as it is done safely. Part three of the Motor Vehicle Act contains the driving rules like speeding, stopping at stop signs and which side of the road to drive on. Section 120 exempts persons, vehicles and other equipment while actually engaged in highway or public utility, construction or maintenance work on, under or over the surface of a highway while at the site of the work from the provisions of Part three. This exemption is tempered by section 121. It says that the driver of a vehicle referred to in section 120 wil drive with due regard for safety, considering all the circumstances including the nature, condition and use of the highway and the amount of traffic that is or may be on it. The Industrial Health and Safety Regulations also play a role. It requires that traffic control be provided whenever the unregulated movement of vehicular traffic is a hazard to workers. It goes on to explain what types of traffic controls may be required, and how to use them. Vehicles that use the exemptions in Section 120 are almost always equipped with flashing amber lamps. The public is well advised to slow down and be prepared to stop when encountering these vehicles on the roadway. The author is a retired constable with many years of traffic enforcement experience.

NOTICE OF NOMINATION PERIOD Director, Electoral Area D (Oyster Bay - Buttle Lake)

T h e re a re e i g h t reversible factors that can cause depression. For some, depression may result from a combination of genetics, circadian rhythm disturbances, upbringing and social factors. For others, depression may be rooted in a lack of dietary omega-3 fats combined with harmful addictions and adverse frontal lobe factors. Exercise, herbs and nutrition play a role in the brain’s ability to manufacture serotonin and other neurotransmitters; thus, one may be able to manage good and bad stress, improve mood and change one’s attitude and actions.

Consecutive podium finishes for local triathlete C

hris Eidsvik, a local triathlete, accountant, and member of the Comox Valley Triathlon Club finished on the podium with third and first place finishes in Kelowna and Vancouver recently. At the Canadian Championships in Kelowna and competing in only his second triathlon Eidsvik received a bronze Chris Eidsvik emerges from the waters of English Bay in Vancouver. The local triathlete has been posting good results in recent events.

medal for his third place finish in his age group 50-54 in the sprint triathlon. “I think I surprised a lot of people, I was leading after the swim, raced my bike quite well as my average speed was 35k over the bike course, and then I finished with a good run,” Eidsvik said. “I was quite surprised with the result and very pleased I made the podium.” Eidsvik followed up his strong result in Kelowna with another great result at the Vancouver Triathlon in Stanley Park last

weekend, he placed first in his age group in the sprint triathlon. “The field was smaller in Vancouver than Kelowna, the swim was also more difficult as we swam against the tide for the first 450 metres. I was in second place after the swim and then lead throughout the bike and run. I was very happy with my result and it gives me more confidence for future races. “The best part of a third place finish at the Canadians in Kelowna is it qualifies me to represent Canada at the world

championships in New Zealand in October 2012. “I am really looking forward to the world championships, training for them over the next 12 months and then competing against the best in the world, it will be a lot of fun.” Eidsvik paid tribute to the team at Pedal Your World for tuning up his bike prior to each race and massage therapist Kim Forsyth at Campbell River Chiropractic for solving a nagging calf injury that had been hindering his run for some time.
