Angie Mindus Cariboo Advisor Four women and three men have been given the onerous duty this week of determining the cause of death and any possible recommendations which might be made in the coroner’s inquest regarding the death of prisoner Blaine Conrad Sargent. The inquest heard Monday that Sargent was just 19 years old and in the custody of the Prince George Correctional Institution when he collapsed after going into medical distress and died a short time later in a P.G. hospital. The jury heard Sargent had been transported back from Williams Lake earlier in the day September 21, 2012 for a court date on a breach of recognizance charge and had spent time in the custody of both the sheriff ’s department and Williams Lake RCMP as well as BC Corrections. Presiding coroner Donita Kuzma encouraged the jury to listen and observe witnesses, and ask questions in order to determine where, when, how and by what means Mr. Sargent died. Coroner Counsel Roderick MacKenzie, who represents the deceased and can also act on behalf of the family, told the jury they would hear from many witnesses, including the provincial toxicologist who was expected to give evidence regarding a “packet” which was in Sargent’s stomach when he died.

CARIBOO Chilcotin
Meet your Cariboo Chilcotin candidates All of the candidates of the Cariboo/ Chilcotin riding graciously agreed to answer three questions given to them by The Cariboo Advisor. We thank them for their prompt attention in answering the following. Please note, all answers have been printed as supplied by the candidates.
ADVISOR:
What do you believe are the top three issues in the region?
BARNETT:
1. The Economy, this includes job creation in all resource sectors including Mining, Forestry, Agriculture and Tourism. Jobs and a strong economy creates wealth to support all our great social programs.Diversity in the economy with new revenue streams need to occur to keep our economy strong. Improved access to Health care: Technology has given greater access to Health care. Electronic access to medical records, teleconferencing and telehealth make it easier for doctors and patients in rural areas. 2. Government has doubled the number of first year undergraduate spaces for medical students from 128 in 2003/04 to 288 in 2011/12. Investments in UBC has increased the number of graduating MD's from 123 in 2000 to 256 in 2011/2012. We have attracted doctors from other provinces and countries. We have provided funding for 70 nurse practitioners. The UNBC medical program will continue to grow and provide doctors to rural BC. Incentives for rural doctors are provided by Province and Health authorities and local Governments. Health Care is a high priority for all of us and working continually with all stakeholders will continue to provide access for all to health care. We are making investments
in rural emergency rooms, including dedicating funding to both Cariboo Memorial Hospital & Health Centre for rural, feefor-service physicians who commit to ensure reliable public access to emergency services is maintained at the local hospital. 3. Education: Achieving long-term labour peace is key, kids benefit when learning is not repeatedly disrupted. This is why our government proposed an innovative framework to achieve a 10 -year labour contract with teachers. This framework would have dedicated funds to address policy priorities, a policy council that includes teachers, and salary certainty. Education in rural B.C. is changing. To keep up, Today's BC Liberal government has been engaging in initiatives to ensure we continue to support rural learners and educators. We've established the Provincial Rural Strategy Advisory Council to inform education policy development. In partnership with UBC, we've worked to spread exemplary innovative practice that's emerging from rural schools. Our Rural Educator Network is helping educators access more learning opportunities, and we've partnered with the Mitchell Odyssey Foundation to encourage excellence in science in rural communities. Today's BC Liberals remain committed to providing the highest quality education for rural communities.
WYSE: Development of resources and land use, education, and health care.
YOUNG: The top issues revolve back and forth between mining, forestry, economy, seniors. Forestry is apparently okay for a few years
judging by the “allocations” allowed by the Liberals, and actually must be great if they can export so many logs. Mining issues revolve around Prosperity which has not completed the review. The economy in BC is in the tank unless you are a big corporation getting tax breaks that taxpayers must make up. Seniors will now potentially get some new funding as public pressure is on.
PRICE: Ensuring we have a plan and a sustainable cut moving forward in the Forest Industry. Balancing our Social, Environmental and Economic needs now to ensure a sustainable future for generations to come. Giving the people a voice to be heard and taken seriously. We need to make sure all demographics are listened to and concerns are addressed.
ADVISOR:
If elected, what would you like to accomplish in the next four years?
BARNETT: We must continue to diversify our workforce. We must expand our Trades and Training programs. Expand opportunities and grow Thompson Rivers University. Complete planning and upgrade the Williams Lake Hospital. Support our Doctors and Nurses, our Education system, the Mining Industry especially Prosperity Mine. This will generate jobs, keep our young families home so we can once again have our schools expand. Our greatest way to keep our communities safe, healthy and vibrant is through jobs and a strong economy.
WYSE: The Cariboo Chilcotin is historical-
ly known for forestry, tourism, agriculture, and mining. These industries provide jobs for many families and a direct spin-off benefit for other businesses that support our communities. An NDP government's commitment to invest in skills and training will assist families to find good paying jobs and will provide a skilled workforce for industry. My goal is to see that these industries are once again vibrant, building a diverse and sustainable future for the people of the Cariboo and Chilcotin regions.
YOUNG: In the next four years I would continue to call for elimination of gas/oil subsidies, return to 16% corp. tax, a healthy tax on banks/major financial institutions, tax coal exports. We must eliminate the wasteful PCT that pays out to govt friends and donators. I would strongly support advancement of electronic voting that would include referendums properly worded and simplifying Recall. We need to address new revenue streams which I have done. An Independent has the same voice in the Legislature as any minister or Leader of the opposition.
PRICE: If elected I would like to bring a clear vision of the future to our area. I will work hard to fight for the people and work alongside them to ensure the needs of all demographics are met.
ADVISOR:
Why should people vote for you?
BARNETT:
I am proud of the many accomplishments that have been fulfilled since my election in 2009. I have enjoyed working jointly with the citizens of
Williams Lake/ 100 Mile House and the Cariboo- Chilcotin to achieve these accomplishments. These are some of our successes: The opening of Deni House, a 28 bed residential care home; Repaving of MacKenzie Avenue; Opening of Eagles Nest Housing unit; Strong Start Program for our children; $3 million for the Cariboo Chilcotin Beetle Action Coalition; Upgrade to Airtanker base; Opening of Jubilee Place; TRU First Nations Gathering Place; Extension of Williams Lake River Valley Trail; $200 million being invested in Cariboo Connector; $2.6 million invested in Thompson Rivers University Training Programs; DriveABLE program for seniors; Partners with United
Way for Better at Home Program for seniors. I have worked extremely hard over the years to make our communities and region a better place to live, but there is much more to do. With your support I will continue to work with all of you.
WYSE:
Over the past 12 years we have watched resource industries suffer, jobs disappear, and people move out of the province. A vote for me means a vote for a government that will care for the people, the environment, and the economy. An Adrian Dix NDP government has a fully-costed platform with a practical plan to support and invest in education, families, seniors, healthcare, and a diverse resource
economy. When you vote for me, you will be voting for a positive change.
YOUNG: Simply I am the best candidate. No party responses, no script, and an ability to challenge bad government and poor Legislation and support good Legislation. An Independent can will EXPLAIN the facts of all issues and report to constituents. I’ll do that.
PRICE: People should vote for me because I’m young and ambitious. I want to make changes and I want to help people. I believe we need to look beyond the next four years and have a plan in place for future generations.

The Power of One Bob Simpson, Independent Candidate for Cariboo North The Liberal and NDP candidates have claimed that you need to elect a “team member” in order to get anything done for Cariboo North; preferably a member of the winning team, of course. Under the current party system, members of the winning team won’t play a direct role in the legislative process. They’ll be looking to the premier - one MLA - to tell them what the agenda is for BC.
INDEPENDENT INCUMBENT:
BOB SIMPSON
Bob Simpson was re‐elected as the MLA for Cariboo North on May 12, 2009. He was first elected to the
Government MLAs are so tightly controlled through whipped votes, talking points, and political staff that they become a function of the premier’s office. That’s why many current and former MLAs and MPs refer to themselves as nothing more than “trained seals”. In contrast, Independent MLAs can work constructively with whichever party forms government, while still holding that party publicly accountable to its election promises. Independents sit on committees, we ask questions in Question Period and in budget and legislative debates, and we can raise any issue that’s important to British Columbians without fear of retribution from the party boss or whip. Because Independent MLAs are free from the partisanship of BC politics, we can develop more productive and constructive relationships with local, regional, and provincial bureaucrats to the benefit of our region and our constituents.

Legislature in 2005, and he began sitting as an Independent MLA in December of 2010. Born in Scotland, Bob's family immigrated to Winnipeg, Manitoba in 1967, and he moved to British Columbia in 1974 when he joined the Canadian Navy. He has two undergraduate degrees and a Teaching Certificate from the University of Victoria. Bob is married to Trish (née Havens). They moved to Quesnel in 1985 to teach, and
Bob became Science Department at QSS before leaving to start his own businesses. While he was teaching, Bob wrote a weekly column on sustainability issues for the Cariboo Observer and he developed a high school forestry course. He also helped to set up what is now known as the Fraser Basin Council. After teaching, Bob ran a successful consulting business in the areas of community, business, and human
resource development. In 1996 he joined Weldwood of Canada, where he became a corporate manager. Bob entered politics in 2004 due to his concern that we were living unsustainably. While in Opposition, he became a high-‐profile critic for Forestry and Aboriginal Relations. In 2010, Bob was ejected from the NDP caucus for writing two sentences about a speech that the NDP leader had given to the UBCM. He made the decision to
leave the political party system altogether and has been sitting as an Independent ever since. Bob is a vocal advocate for democratic reform, and along with BC’s other Independent MLAs he presented an agenda for reform that would revitalize BC’s democratic system. Bob is a former National Triathlon Champion in his age group and was named BC’s Male Triathlete of the Year in 2002. He is an avid cyclist, runner, sailor and kayaker
grown up on our family farm that my great grandparents homesteaded in 1933. Our region is blessed with inspiring families, businesses and individuals who are hard working, devoted and proud. I graduated from Quesnel Secondary School in 1990, and went on to receive a degree in Political Science from the University of British Columbia. While in university, I ran for the nomination of the Reform Party of Canada in 1992. I have worked as the manager of the Quesnel &
District Chamber of Commerce for fourteen years and I am a passionate advocate for small businesses, as they play an important role in keeping our communities vibrant. I was appointed to the Small Business Roundtable in 2007, where we focused on the reduction of unnecessary red tape. I was appointed to the Minister's Council on Tourism in 2009, where I brought a rural perspective to the board. We were successful at getting the funding formula changed to help support rural Visitor
Centres and were able to access funding for Heritage properties like Barkerville. In 2011, I was appointed to Junior Achievement of British Columbia and believe teaching financial literacy is a fundamental skill we should be teaching our youth. I served on Quesnel City Council for six years, where I was proud to have chaired the Environmental Committee and later on, the Public Safety Committee (RCMP, Fire Department, Emergency Social Services). I was elected
on to the North Central Local Government Association where I developed a solid network of Mayors and Councillors from across Central and Northern British Columbia. I have strong relations with all levels of government and work well in a team environment, which is important to move important projects forward. My experience has prepared me to speak up, stand out, listen closely and problem solve. I am committed to serving you, the people of Cariboo North.
area. I have worked in the region for much of my life - from the bunkhouse to the boardroom. Before going to university and getting a degree in agricultural economics, I explored the province and worked in almost all our natural resource sectors, including commercial fishing, logging, sawmills, guide outfitting, oil and gas drilling, and ranching. I began working in the Cariboo as a professional agrologist in the early nineties with Ducks Unlimited, then with the Fraser Basin Council as a regional coordinator. I was involved in land use planning treaty negotiations, leading to a position as manager of
Aboriginal Affairs for the Cariboo Lumber Manufacturers’ Association. I was taught that community service is important. I have been a 4H leader and served on my community association. I have also been active on several provincial industry and professional
organizations which has provided me with experience and insight into natural resource legislation, regulation and policy. I served as a Cariboo Regional District director for the Horsefly, Likely, Big Lake, 150 Mile and Williams Lake Fringe area from 2000
until 2010. As an electoral area director, I built relationships and worked with municipalities and First Nations. The most satisfying part of the job was working with communities on their initiatives for economic development, services, and community facilities.
We can also use our freedom to raise the profile of important provincial issues that the political parties fail to address. For example, I led the highly publicized charge against the Pacific Carbon Trust and the transfer of $52 million in public money from classrooms and hospitals to private companies. The NDP have now committed to dismantling the Trust. I also worked with the government, opposition, industry stakeholders, and the public to stop legislation from being passed that would have fundamentally changed BC’s forest tenure system. My independence allowed me to cut through the politics of this issue to get a commitment that more comprehensive public consultation will occur before we revisit tenure reform. The NDP Opposition House leader has stated that BC’s three Independent MLAs have already changed the “us versus them” mentality of the BC Legislature because of our freedom to “get out ahead of the government and the opposition” on critical issues. Rather than allow the concentration of power in the hands of one MLA, Independents can help all MLAs to have the freedom and power to represent their constituents’ interests.

CARIBOO NORTH
Meet your Cariboo North candidates All of the candidates of the Cariboo North riding graciously agreed to answer three questions given to them by The Cariboo Advisor. We thank them for their prompt attention in answering the following. Please note, some answers have been edited due to space limitations.
ADVISOR:
What do you believe are the top three issues in the region?
SIMPSON: Seniors’ care and affordability will continue to be a major issue for the region over the next few years. We need an end to MSP premiums for people over 65, more affordable housing options, significantly more funding for home support, and more flexible home support so seniors can age at home. The new government should also put an end to DriveABLE testing and allow seniors to take real driving tests in their own cars and in their own communities. School closures will dominate the K-12 education debate in our region over the next two years. We need a new strategy for BC’s forests that goes beyond empty promises to reinventory our forests and plant a few more trees. We need a public inquiry into the state of our forests and forest policy, the appointment of an independent Chief Forester who will report to the BC Legislature, and a strategy to maximize BC’s forest fibre by developing a whole new industry based on creating fossil fuel substitutes.
OAKES: The top three issues in our region include: economic diversification; skills and trades training to retain people and business in the our riding; and supporting our seniors. Our region plays a critical role in the economic health and well-being of the
Province of British Columbia and there is urgency to diversify, support investment, and attract a highly skilled workforce to ensure that our communities move forward successfully. We have only a few years to get this right, and I intend to bring this message to Victoria. A passionate and positive voice is needed and bold action is required to ensure that our message and issues are heard. Cariboo North needs to focus on diversifying our economy. We are one of the most forest dependent regions in British Columbia and we need to expand opportunities in small business, agriculture, tourism, green technology and mining to ensure our sustainability. We need to be retaining and attracting people and investment into our region by ensuring we have jobs. A critical component to this will be providing skills and trades training.
barnett: An election campaign is all about talking to people. The top three issues that I consistently hear about are: jobs and the economy; health care - particularly for seniors; and education – or skills and trades training for young people. The underlying theme is that British Columbia has become a deeply unequal province. We are economically more divided than we have been in generations. In a province as rich as ours, with an abundance of resources and hard-working people, this continuing longterm increase in poverty and inequality is simply not acceptable. It hurts families. It damages our economy. It undermines our society.
ADVISOR:
If elected, what would you like to accomplish in the next four years?
SIMPSON: I will continue to provide strong and effective representation at the
constituency level, solving problems for both individual constituents and the communities of Cariboo North. I will work with whichever party forms government and with the opposition to get legislative reforms so every one of BC’s 85 MLAs are involved in governing the province and addressing the complex issues that face us today: systemic poverty, sustainable natural resource development, rural economic development, etc. I would like to make sure every community in the Cariboo has a transition strategy for the coming falldown in the annual allowable cut. These strategies will maximize our opportunities to diversify local economies and allow us to get maximum local benefits from our natural and human resources. This includes opportunities in mining; agriculture; arts, culture; tourism; forestry; and entrepreneurship and technical innovation.
OAKES: In the next four years I would like to see a further expansion of skills and trades training at CNC and TRU. I have been part of the team that successfully lobbied to get the $11 million for the North Cariboo Community Campus and later the $9.8 million for the Skills and Trades training component. I will continue to be a vocal advocate for these projects. I have worked closely with the School District to develop the Employment Certificate Program that assists employees' access to essential skills that will support them in further training. I will be a strong supporter of apprenticeship bridging programs in the high schools so that students can begin receiving credits for their apprenticeships, while also receiving credits for graduation. We can support our small business sector by working as a region to implement a mobile business license. This
would enable businesses to work throughout the region, but would only require one business permit. I will continue to look for ways to reduce unnecessary red tape and to make owning and operating a small business easier. We also need to look at how we can support our agricultural sector with issues such as farm status (federal), agricultural leases/ permits, community pastures and access to slaughter and processing facilities.
barnett: After 12 years of BC Liberal government, people in the Cariboo are ready for a change. It’s time for a new government with better priorities. We need a government that ensures BC resources are used to create BC value-added manufacturing and processing jobs. We need a government that invests in agriculture, forestry, mining and tourism so that we have a balanced and diversified resource economy that creates good jobs and a strong middle class. The BC NDP will make significant investments in skills training and student grants to increase the affordability and accessibility of postsecondary education so that British Columbians have the skills needed in today’s economy. The BCNDP has also committed to increased funding for rural hospitals and seniors care. A BC NDP government will take steps to reduce child poverty, improve income assistance, protect and respect vulnerable people in our riding, expand affordable housing, strengthen access to justice and community safety, and enhance women’s equality. That is how we create a more caring and generous society.
ADVISOR:
Why should people vote for you?
SIMPSON: I have provided strong and effective rep-
resentation for Cariboo North for the past eight years. In the last twoand-a-half years as an Independent MLA I’ve found I can be even more effective, as I can have productive and constructive relationships with both the government and opposition as well as with local and regional bureaucrats simply because I’m not involved in the petty bickering that goes on between BC’s two main political parties. On May 14th citizens in Cariboo North can show their support for my non-partisan and independent representation by sending me back to Victoria as an elected Independent MLA. This would make history and send a message to Victoria that citizens want real change in our democratic system — that they want MLAs to truly represent the people instead of their political party.
OAKES: I believe I am the best candidate for MLA at this moment in our region's transition, as I have both the education and experience in economic development diversification. I understand the critical need to attract investment and retain both families and businesses in our region and have been part of a successful team that has accessed substantial funding for skills and trades training. I have volunteered for many years supporting local seniors' initiatives and I have the best relationship with the various levels of government, which will be critical to ensuring projects in our region move forward. Team work is essential to move our region forward, and I

work well in a team setting. I also have the ingrained knowledge of our region's potential, passed on through generations of my family living here.

barnett: I consider myself a social progressive, a fiscal conservative and an environmental steward. I am running for the BCNDP because I believe we can do better in this province – in terms of how we treat people, how we manage our economy, and how we care for our environment. I have a strong working background in all of our resource industries. I have combined that practical experience with years of political experience at the local government and provincial level. I know how to assist constituents with their issues, and I know how to work with others to effectively represent the interests of the Cariboo in the provincial context. The BC NDP platform – change for the better – is built on four pillars: a clear fiscal framework, a prosperous and sustainable economy that supports good jobs; a more caring and generous society; and protecting the environment.

A tale of two ridings Our B.C. Provincial Election Day is fast approaching. Candidates are in a fill court press, getting out and connecting with as many voters as possible before May 14. Last week Liberal incumbent for the Cariboo Chilcotin, Donna Barnett, and Liberal candidate for Cariboo North Coralee Oakes got some support from Premier Christy Clark. Clark swept into town, security detail and communications officers in tow, with her dazzling smile to greet supporters and ask them for their support. NDP party leader Adrian Dix was rumoured to be scheduled for a stop in the lakecity last week as well, but we heard he
ended up making his appointments via telephone. If you’re just stepping into the race, here’s the who’s who for each of our two ridings. In the Cariboo Chilcotin, you have Liberal incumbent Donna Barnett (former mayor of 100 Mile House) fighting to hang on to her seat against an old rival, NDP candidate Charlie Wyse (former Williams Lake City councillor and Cariboo South MLA). In the last election in 2009, less than a hundred votes separated the two, with Barnett come out the victor. Voters should expect no less drama from these two this time around. Other candidates vying for the Cariboo
Chilcotin seat are BC Green Party Dustin Green and outspoken independent Gary Young. In Cariboo North, there are three candidates asking for your vote. Independent incumbent Bob Simpson is trying to keep his seat without the backing of any one party. Simpson was elected in 2005, and again in 2009 under the NDP banner but was removed from the caucus in 2010 for speaking out against his party. Simpson has since fought hard to prove an independent voice can still get the job done. Liberal candidate Coralee Oakes and NDP Duncan Barnett are both giving Simpson a run for his
money and it’s really anyone’s guess who is going to win. Whoever wins the races next week, one thing for sure is there’s no shortage of issues facing our small rural resource towns. Aging populations, changing economies, lack of affordable housing, delivery of health care -- you name it, we have it here. We commend all of the candidates who have bravely stood up in our two ridings to throw their hats in the ring. It takes a special person to put themselves out there like that. Now let’s all do our part and vote, vote, vote. We wish all the candidates the best of luck in Tuesday’s election.
Are cheap clothes worth it? Spokespersons for Joe Fresh, Loblaw's discount clothing line, have vowed to stay in Bangladesh and make positive changes after more than 500 people were killed in a building collapse. The victims were working for 25 cents per day in the country's $20-billion-per-year garment industry when the tragedy occurred, after workers were sent back into the unsafe,
six story building. All told, 30 companies from around the world were having goods manufactured in the building. Some international firms, such as Disney, have already announced intentions to withdraw from Bangladesh but Joe Fresh spokespersons argue more can be done to make the apparel industry "a force for good" in the world by work-
ing with local authorities to improve conditions. The spokespersons pledged that any garment made for the Joe Fresh line will be produced in a facility that respects local building codes, as well as labour laws. Perhaps the next time we reach for good deal on some discount items here in Canada, we should be mindful of the workers who made it.

Five-year-old Oliver Corcoran of Lac La Hache takes in the High School Rodeo Saturday at the Williams Lake Stampede Grounds.
Our possibilities are limited only by ourselves If I could live my life over I would like to be a dancer, a singer, a pilot with my own plane, a professional scuba diver and hang out at the Great Barrier Reef, an actor on stage in a wonderful performance, a novelist and a gourmet chef. And that’s just for starters. While we strive to accomplish our goals, we only have so much time as a life lived. We can choose to use it wisely or spend it foolishly. Do we achieve what we set out to achieve, or does our life circumstance get in the way? Events occur
unexpectedly and throw us off course. Stay the course they say. For me, to embrace life fully, with enthusiasm, and hopefully with courage and grace, to experience all that we can, is the ultimate success in a life well lived. So where did we go in life? Are we where
we wanted to be? Do we change our fate by wrongful choices, missed opportunities or shallow reactions to events? (Only to regret our behavior after the fact.) I believe we all know at heart, the right course of action, if we are centered in self, listen to our inner voice, follow our true passions and have a firm grip on our talents. Yes talents, as we are all gifted and often in many ways. "Life isn't about finding yourself, its about creating yourself", to quote George Bernard Shaw.
My younger sister had a yen to be a dancer, so my mother enrolled her in a tap dancing class. Which for sis, only lasted one lesson. She dropped out, couldn’t handle the discipline. The dancing career no doubt a whim? Anyway, my mother went to get her money back but the instructor wouldn’t come up with it. “After all, a contract is a contract”.; he said. So my mother took the lessons herself, learned how to tap dance and loved it. She was good at it too. I even went to her recital among a myriad of
little girls. In my case, I had a yen too, to be a writer and as well as becoming a filmmaker among other things, I brought into myself a sense of inferiority and delusion that I was not trained as a writer and was really not a wordsmith but a creator of images. How wrong was I and it wasn’t until I reached my 70’s that I took the plunge became a true writer at heart and guess what? I love it, its become my thing. To me, easy and productive. It doesn’t cost anything other than my time and inclination and its immediately sat-
isfying as creative output. The talent, the gift, (if I may be so immodest), is there. It was always there but tucked away behind a sense of what was expected of me and the limitations of a small town boy from a working class background, Herewith, one of my favourite quotes from the I Ching, the great Chinese book of revelation. “The destinies of men are subject to immutable laws that must fulfill themselves. But man has it in his power to shape his fate, according as his behaviour exposes him to the
influence of benevolent or destructive forces.” People live within the frontier of their awareness of life and have the potential to push back that frontier or remain secure within it. Then there is that great human disease called denial. Denial of truth, denial of self and the lack of self acceptance, self love. Herewith is an apt thought left to us from Ralph Waldo Emerson; “What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.”

Keep our healthcare system public Editor: For more than 40 years I was a health science professional at Cariboo Memorial Hospital. I have ample knowledge about our healthcare system on both on professional and personal levels. Since retiring, I spend the winters in Arizona. I find my American friends always have a lot of questions about our medical system. They envy us. We do not have huge deductibles or policy limits. We are never excluded due to pre-existing conditions. We all have healthcare, not just those who are lucky enough to be able to afford coverage. Our system cost 50% less than theirs and our outcomes are better. Our public healthcare system has been under attack, however. Promoters of for-profit healthcare are on the offensive. After a decade of deep cuts and increasing privatiza-

tion, British Columbia cannot afford to continue down the path to for-profit healthcare where care is available only to those who can afford it. Our universal healthcare system was instituted in 1962 by the NDP's Tommy Douglas. In 2004 he was voted, by a CBC poll, to be Canada's greatest Canadian! Are there challenges to the system? Absolutely. But there is also a wealth of evidence-based public innovations that are addressing those challenges. All we need is the leadership from a pro-public healthcare government to scale those innovations up and make improvements where needed. It is not in our best interests to continue the move towards an American style system. Joan Magee Williams Lake

Get out and vote May 14 When Vaughn Palmer, columnist for the Vancouver Sun criticized Walt Cobb for a comment he made during the provincial election two terms back, it was damaging enough to cause him to loose the election. Now Palmer is at it again, this time criticizing another Cariboo Chilcotin candidate. Last week, Palmer went after NDP Charlie Wyse of Cariboo South for comments regarding a moratorium on fracking in the LNG industry. His boss, Adrian Dix said Charlie ‘misspoke,' a nice word that says, he didn’t know what he was talking about. So, will the

Vancouver Sun's attack on Charlie Wyse spell the end of Charlie in this election? How come Adrian Dix didn’t stop in Williams Lake when he went to Quesnel? Was it because Mr Wyse ‘misspoke’ and he would have to deal with that issue as it would be all over the media.
HST and those other things the Liberals have done wrong since they have been in power. I think the nice Mr. Dix will be spitting fire until the end of the election, I predict in the Cariboo North the effervescent Coralee Oakes will win in that riding. She will come up the middle as Duncan Barnett of the NDP and Bob Simpson will split the vote. The New Prosperity Mine has become an issue in this election and Charlie Wyse or Adrian Dix do not support the mine or the jobs that go with this great economic opportunity for the Cariboo.

Famous Quotes for Mother's Day Mother's Day is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world. Many countries and cultures choose to celebrate Mother's Day in March, April or May. Though the Mother's Day many people know today dates back a little more than a century, historians note that ancient Romans kept a festival to Cybele, a great mother of the Gods. In addition, Europe has several traditions aimed at honoring mothers that date back quite a while. One of the traditions
associated with the current Mother's Day is to give Mom a gift. Some people only give their own mothers and wives gifts, while others extend their generosity to sisters with children, mothers-in-law and even grandmothers. Chances are, over the years Mom's gifts have run the gamut, from a homemade treasure kids made in elementary school to jewelry from hubby to breakfast in bed. For those who want to add a literary tilt to their Mother's Day gift this
year, consider including any of the following motherly quotes when preparing a gift Mom won't soon forget. • "Of all the rights of women, the greatest is to be a mother." - Lin Yutang, Chinese writer • "I remember my mother's prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life." - Abraham Lincoln, 16th President of the United States of America • "Youth fades; love droops; the leaves of friendship fall; A moth-
er's secret hope outlives them all." - Oliver Wendell Holmes, American author • "A man loves his sweetheart the most, his wife the best, but his mother the longest." Irish proverb • "All women become like their mothers. That is their tragedy. No man does. That's his." - Oscar Wilde, Irish poet • "If I was damned of body and soul, I know whose prayers would make me whole, Mother o' mine, O mother o' mine." -
Rudyard Kipling, in his poem "Mother O' Mine" • "The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness." - Honore de Balzac, French playwright • "The future destiny of a child is always the work of the mother." - Napoleon Bonaparte, Emperor of France • "The God to whom little boys say their prayers has a face very like their mothers'." - James Matthew Barrie, Scottish author

Mother's Day is a day devoted to celebrating mothers and expressing love for the special women in our lives. Mother's Day can also be a time to share some trivia and tidbits with those special women who mean so much. • Americans owe Mother's Day to West Virginia native Anna Jarvis, who held a memorial for her mother two years after the
latter's death in 1905. After the memorial, Jarvis devoted her efforts to a campaign to make Mother's Day a nationally recognized holiday. The hard work paid off in 1914 when the day was nationally recognized. • Anna Jarvis and her sister, Ellsinore, eventually grew to detest what they felt Mother's Day had become. The sisters felt the day had grown too commercialized,
and spent their family inheritance campaigning against Mother's Day. • Ironically, Anna Jarvis never married and had no children. • Rajo Devi Lohan of India is believed to be the world's oldest new mother. Lohan gave birth to a baby girl at age 70 after receiving IVF treatment. Within two years of the child's birth, reports indicated Lohan's health was dete-

riorating. • Lina Medina is considered to be the youngest to ever give birth. Medina delivered a 61/2-pound baby boy in Peru at the age of 5 years and 7 months. Medina was believed to have a rare condition called known as precocious puberty, which enabled her to conceive at such a young age. • Ancient Egyptians had their own form of Mother's Day by honoring the goddess Isis, who was known as the mother of pharaohs. • The wife of Russian peasant Feodor Vassilyev is considered to be the record holder for birthing the most children. Mrs. Vassilyev is believed to have delivered 69 children between 1725 and 1765. These children were delivered in a total of 27 births, including 16 pairs of twins, seven sets of triplets and four sets of quadruplets. Though little is known about the births or Mrs. Vassilyev, 67 of the 69 children were said to have survived infancy. • The bond between mother and child is not exclusive to the human race. Mother chimpanzees, for instance, are said to develop lifelong relationships with their children. • Carnations are the flowers most associated with Mother's Day. White carnations are worn in the memory of deceased mothers, while red and pink carnations are worn for those mothers who are still alive.

The Rusty Bucket captures life in a moment The idea to open up a home decor and gift store came to Rena Johnson after life took some unexpected turns. “There was this urge to create a space to retreat to, almost a safe haven kind of spot,” Rena recalls that time in her life. “A place to calm the soul and express myself creatively, to just be.” Rena said the community seemed to be missing a bit of a retail niche, a place where one could acquire items for

their home, a wedding, birthday, anniversary or housewarming gift. Her thoughts included something unique, warm, inviting and more of an experience. That's where The Rusty Bucket's name and tagline came into play, "Life in a Moment.” “We broke ground in the fall of 2010 and had just over a year to bring my vision to life,” Rena remembers. Rena said it was important for her to have the building blend well with the style of her nearby home and include similar features, such as the covered porch, doors and windows. “My Mom and I put a lot of hours in, doing all of the painting inside and out, installing the flooring and landscaping. The idea was to have The Rusty Bucket feel somewhat like a home when you entered.” A rock fireplace, two comfy leather chairs just waiting to curl up in, a dinning room table, sideboards, armoire and foyer bench greets customers as they enter the store and were all pieces that Rena designed herself and had a local carpenter build, which she then finished. Rena wanted customers to be able to come in and imagine the items displayed in their homes. In January 2011, Rena completely left her comfort zone and with a dear friend holding her hand, the two attended Canada's largest gift show in Toronto, spending four days walking, learning and picking inventory for the following Christmas season. “When the store opened in November 2011, the response from the community was overwhelming to say the least. We celebrated a fabulous three-day opening and
watched most of our inventory disappear.” A few of the product lines The Rusty Bucket carries includes candles by Illume which are known for its fragrances and colour. “It's probably the first thing you notice when walking in. I hear people say "It smells so good in here.'” The Rusty Bucket also carries a classic dish line by Sophie Conran known for its durability of everyday life, art blocks that are locally made on Salt Spring Island and canvases with inspirational manifestos by Kelly Rae Roberts, an artist from Portland. The store also carries a jewelry line by Lenny and Eva featuring vintage charms and leather cuffs, outdoor furniture by CR Plastics, 100% Canadian made and zero maintenance, seen on the hit series "Dragon's Den, and of course lots of pillows, blankets, clocks and many more items. There is a common theme of "Words of Wisdom" throughout the store and customers enjoy reading different quotes and uplifting verses. There is a wish list the customer can fill out to make gift buying easier and a wedding registry program. Rena says many customers also look forward to the samples of fresh baking supplied on Saturdays. “It's been very rewarding seeing my dream grow and come to life – the new experiences and people I've met along the way. The Rusty Bucket has become a bit of a gathering place as well as my "Safe Haven" a place where people can take time and enjoy "Life in a Moment." The Rusty Bucket is open from April to Christmas, Wed-Sat 10-4 p.m.

Expressing the biology of nature through art Angie Mindus Cariboo Advisor After putting down his paint brush for more than 25 years to work and raise a family, retired government wildlife biologist John Youds is ready to publicly share his personal thoughts through his art. “I’m not just painting a pretty picture, I’m trying to show the connection to the landscape, to the ecosystem,” Youds said over coffee at the New World Cafe, where his first works are currently on display. “We’re totally reliant on nature but it’s something we don’t always appreciate. (In my painting I ask myself) how do I depict the value of our environment? How do I show the interconnectedness between it all?” Youds was raised in an artist family in North Vancouver and was encouraged to indulge his artist side throughout his teenage years. His family members were also avid outdoors people, and spent many summers kayaking, hiking and exploring Manning Park. Torn between his love of the arts and his passion for the sciences, Youds chose the more conventional of the two paths and became a biologist, taking his first official job in 1979 on Vancouver Island to conduct research on wolves and elk. “I was really driven to do something to help protect the environment,” Youds recalls. “I discovered early on you can’t fix everything, but you can contribute. Everyone can do a little bit to make a difference.” In 1985, Youds took a transfer with the government to Williams Lake which became his home for the rest of his career. It was a natural fit for Youds as his father liked to hike in the Chilcotin
Land of Eskers, Badgers and Spadefoot by John Youds link between the endangered species and their habitat of grasslands and surrounding forests. Youds latest work “The Trees I Dream Know Everything” is Youds’ perspective of the Williams Lake River
Valley. He admits he has hundreds more in his mind just waiting to take shape on canvas. “I can lose myself all day in a painting, I feel so fulfilled. It’s in my soul, I have to paint.”

and kayak Taseko Lake, and the work presented Youds with the chance to do research on the Cariboo Chilcotin’s sensitive eastern and western Caribou herds. Youds said his career was a rewarding one, however he admits he often felt the pressure working in government to stifle his voice or any opinions he might have surrounding his research. One of his last, and most emotionally challenging assignments was the review of the wildlife and habitat data for the first environmental review of the Prosperity Mine project at Fish Lake. Youds said he and his staff were leading the provincial review of the wildlife habitat and hydrology impacts of the controversial project. “At the time I recognized the beauty of the area,” he said of Fish Lake, which was initially proposed to be drained to make way for the mine, but was ultimately denied by the Federal government due to the environmental impacts. “It’s more than just a gold deposit, there are many other values there. It’s amazing and inspiring nature.” In fact Youds was so was inspired by the area, his first painting after he retired last year was “Moon Rising Over Fish Lake,” an 18x36 inch acrylic on canvas. “It was the bridge. My head was still in it,” Youds said of the transition between work and the freedom of retirement. “I couldn’t express any feelings I had about nature, but painting allows me to do that (now). I’m happiest when I paint.” Art enthusiasts will be happy too. Some of the other pieces in Youds’ collection includes “Out of the Darkness,” a 24x20 inch of a volunteer sunflower growing in his garden and the very biologist-sounding title “Land of Eskers, Badgers and Spadefoots, 2013,” an 18x36 inch acrylic on canvas in which Youds was inspired to paint after spending an evening in the South Cariboo with fellow biologist and friend Roger Packham.

Sheila Piderman gets some garden advice from Stephanie Klausat of Timothy Lake Farm Products during Seedy Saturday celebrations on the weekend.
“We’ll have to spend some time with that,” MacKenzie said, adding later, “It appears he had drugs, he took drugs … so we’re going to have to figure out how that happened.” Among the several witnesses, the jury heard from probation officer Christian Petersen who was in charge of supervising Sargent, on probation for a sexual assault, in the time leading up to his death.
He described Sargent as a “very personable, likable” but one who was “immature” and who was in need of structure and supports. Petersen said Sargent was residing at his community of Canoe Creek during his probation but was involved “in a violent disturbance” while there and moved to Williams Lake. “August was a very troubled month for him,” he said. Sargent was arrest-
ed, bailed out and rearrest in the days leading to his death, the jury heard. Sargent’s grandmother, who raised him, was on hand for the proceedings and is expected to give evidence later in the week. Once all evidence has been heard, the jury will have the opportunity to make recommendations aimed at preventing deaths under similar circumstances in the future.

Elder College provides life-long learning Barry Sale Spring has sprung, and our Elder College Spring Semester is winding down. By all accounts, it has been a very successful semester, with 198 registrations for our “regular” course offerings and 112 registrations for our free community
service courses. Many people have commented favorably about the number and range of course offerings, from guitar to greenhouse gardening and from computers to cooking. The furniture reupholstery class was outstanding, as were the music apprecia-
tion and water colors course. There were lots of positive comments as well from the Spanish class and the cooking class. It is obvious that Elder College fills a niche for the over 55 set in our community, and we are justifiably proud of the lifelong learning
opportunities that we are able to offer. Currently, the Elder College curriculum committee is hard at work developing a line of interesting, informative, and diverse course for the Fall 2013 semester. Although many have yet to be finalized, it
appears that we will be offering a six session Exploring the Film Classics series in conjunction with the local library, a threeday historical tour which focuses on the old roadhouses of the Cariboo Road, a furniture refinishing course, an international cook-
ing class, several computer classes, a healthy living course and a course that focuses on end of life issues. The Fall 2013 Elder College would love to have a few more volunteers. If you would like to become involved, wither on the Curriculum
Committee, or in some other way (instructor? Course coordinator? Computer support? Secretarial? Administration? Please do not hesitate to contact us at 250-3987624 or at 250-2963315. If you keep your brain active you will never regret it!

Thomas drafted to Western Hockey League Angie Mindus Cariboo Advisor After ten years of getting up at 5 a.m. for practices, and spending almost every day in the off season doing dry land training after school for the last three years, 15-yearold Colton Thomas got the most important call to date in his young hockey career last week. “I didn't think I was going to get drafted – it was a big surprise,” Thomas said of waiting all morning Thursday to finally see his name listed as one of the lucky few draft picks chosen for the Western Hockey League (WHL). He got the news over his phone just as he stepped into gym class at Columneetza where Thomas is currently in Grade 9. “I had to go to school, my mom wouldn't let me stay home (to wait for the news),” said Thomas, who is also on the honour and work ethic roles at school. The WHL called up more than 200 of western North America's top 15-year-old players to sign with 22 teams. Thomas has been signed with the Seattle Thunderbirds, which means he will be heading to their training camp this summer and the team management will take a vested interest in grooming

Williams Lake won their third consecutive Quesnel Co-ed Invitational Tournament last weekend. The lakecity side went a perfect five wins and no losses in capturing the nine-team tournament. The lakecity squad beat out five Quesnel sides and three Prince George teams to earn top spot. Williams Lake defeated the Terminators from Prince George 5-0 in their opening game Saturday morning. Their toughest game of the weekend came in game two against Bakker Logging of Quesnel, scoring late to win 2-1. They won their third and final round-robin game convincingly 7-1 versus Ball So Hard also of Quesnel. After finishing first in Pool B, Williams Lake battled Pool A runners-up Leak Point Plumbing of Prince George in Sunday’s semi-final. They would go on to a 5-0 victory. Ashley Stewart scored a pair of goals to lead the offense. The final was a re-match against Page’s Posse of Quesnel. It was a tight game early on as Williams Lake only led 1-0 at halftime. However, they poured it on late in the game and would end up winning 4-1. Scott Debianci, Rhys Ungar, Sean Glanville and Mike Brogan all scored goals for Williams Lake in the final. Derek Funk was solid in goal all weekend giving up just three goals in five games. The lakecity side picked up a cheque for $700 for first place. Other members of the winning team included Luke Moger, Katie McMahen, Leah Watt, Ashley Callander and Greg Williams.

Coping with hearing loss Lindsay Satchell May is hearing awareness month and everyone is welcome to attend an open house on May 22 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Woodland Tinnitus and Hearing Clinic. If you know you have hearing loss, you should have a complete hearing assessment by a qualified hearing health care provider. If you do not receive a complete and competent test in order to receive the correct
amplification for your needs, your experience with hearing aids, assistive listening devices etc. will be less than perfect. A complete hearing test should take 1 to 1 ½ hours and include the following: A complete case history, otoscopy exam, pure tone air conduction testing, Bone conduction testing, speech reception threshold, word discrimination/ recognition, loudness tolerance test and
immitance testing. Other tests which may be included: Quick Sin Speech in Noise Testing: • Evaluate a clients’ ability to understand a conversation in a noisy environment such as a restaurant or family gathering. Tuning Fork Testing: • Tuning fork activated and placed near ear, forehead or behind the ear (on mastoid bone process) • Used to confirm
type of loss Jaw Palpation: • Some ear pain can be created from issues related to jaw alignment or grinding of the teeth - commonly known as temporal mandibular joint dysfunction Only following a complete hearing health evaluation can a client and a clinician discuss the type and level of technology best suited to obtain optimum improvement to a hearing loss!

HOrOscOpe Aries, you may feel like you need to move faster to get ahead, but the opposite is true this week. Slow down and focus on the details and you will benefit. Taurus, though the first few days of the week may seem disastrous, hang in there and you will find things will turn around quite quickly.
Gemini, sometimes you have to make some noise to be heard, which may seem out of character for you. If the cause is that important, you will do what is necessary.
Cancer, you can’t get enough of a certain thing, but you may need to pace yourself. Otherwise your interest may start to wane. A surprise situation arises on Thursday.

Last Week’s Answers
You may be feeling a bit under the weather this week, Virgo. It’s likely due to you pushing your schedule to the limits. Schedule some recovery time for yourself.
Filet mignon and strawberry spinach salad for your special mother Mothers Day is this coming Sunday and I suggest you do something nice for your Mother. I think being a Mom is one of the toughest jobs in the world so she should certainly deserve Love and Praise all year long, however this one day is a special salute for you special ladies. You do not have to be 5-star chef to create these tasty Mother’s Day dishes. It’s nice if you can get everyone in the family or friends you also may have invited, to help with the meal. It makes this evening even more special if everyone takes a hand in cooking and arranging the
evening. Table, flowers, perhaps chocolates, and shopping can also be split between family members. Start the meal with a Strawberry Spinach Salad. 1 bunch of spinach with not stems left on the leafs 12 large sliced ( not to thin) strawberries
½ cup sugar 1 tsp salt 1/3 cup of white wine vinegar ½ to 3/4 cup of vegetable oil 1 tbsp poppy seeds or you could use sesame seeds if necessary. In your blender put sugar, salt, vinegar and oil. ( You could use olive oil instead of vegetable oil. Pour the mixture over the spinach and strawberries... add poppy seeds on top. I’ll bet that sliced roasted almonds would go in place of the poppy seeds.) A nice start to a lovely meal. Now let’s go for a great entree that is perhaps a little expen-
Leo, there are things you need to say to a particular person in your life. But you do not know how to express your opinions in a way that’s easy to understand. Speak from the heart.
sive but your Mom is worth it. Make sure a little champagne or Mom’s favourite wine is available and cold, if its white. Filet Mignon with Bacon Wrap Use the barbecue for this dish because it’s the best way to get the bacon crispy at the same time the meat is done). 4 filet mignons (about 2 inches thick and six ounces is probably enough 4 slices bacon Wooden toothpicks 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil 4 cloves garlic, finely minced
Salt and pepper Wrap each filet in a strip of bacon around the perimeter of the filet. Attach bacon strips to filets with toothpicks. Lightly brush top and bottom of each filet with olive oil. Rub one of garlic cloves on each filet. Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Grill over medium high heat until bacon starts to crisp (approximately 5-7 minutes per side, for medium rare). Cooking a special meal for a Special Mother is a sure winner. Bye for now and Goood Cooking.
Libra, you need to rely on someone this week for a big project, but you don’t know who to choose. Make a list of your best prospects, and then you can narrow it down from there.
You can use a break from the daily grind, Scorpio. It might be time to plan a getaway. You may want to make this a solo trip so you can fully recharge.
The truth can sometimes hurt a bit, Sagittarius. But a dose of honesty this week provides the reality check you have been needing. Make some changes. Capricorn, an event this week gets you fired up and excited. It could be the news you have been waiting to hear from work or from a significant other.
Aquarius, knowing when to keep quiet can be difficult, especially when you suspect something is off-kilter. This week you will be put to the test.
Pisces, the week may begin somewhat aimlessly, but things will all come together by the middle of the week.
