Police markers indicate where pieces of evidence in an early-morning crash Saturday is being collected.

Photo submitted by RCMP

Impaired driving suspected in crash On the morning of Saturday July 21, a two-vehicle collision occurred near the intersection on Highway 97 and 22 Avenue in Prince George Just before 7:30 a.m., a Prince George General Duty officer, on patrol near the intersection of Highway 97 and Highway 16, attempted to pull over a vehicle, a green Ford Expedition. Immediately upon activation of the emergency equipment, the driver of the Expedition accelerated to a high rate of speed, northbound on Highway 97.

Within seconds, the fleeing SUV rear ended a black GMC Jimmy, causing the

drivers of both northbound vehicles to lose control. Both SUV’s crossed the centre meridian as well as both oncoming lanes.

The Expedition collided with a utility pole between Highway 97 and Westwood Drive. The Jimmy came to rest a short distance away. Both vehicles suffered significant damage.

The two drivers were the only occupants of the vehicles. Both were transported by the BC Ambulance Service to hospital with non-life threatening injuries. The driver of the Expedition was released from medical care and immediately taken into custody by police as part of an Impaired Driving

investigation.

The 29-year-old male driver of the Expedition was transported back to the Prince George RCMP Detachment where he provided two breath samples of more than double the legal limit. He was released on Court documents until his first court appearance scheduled for Sept. 1. A number of Criminal Code charges will be recommended to Provincial Crown Counsel.

The accused is a Class 7 (New) driver and recently moved to Prince George from the Fort St. James area.

The driver of the GMC Jimmy is a 63-year-old Prince George resident.

A Collision Reconstructionist from the RCMP’s North District Traffic Services Section attended the scene to gather evidence. Northbound traffic was restricted to one lane and southbound traffic was diverted around the scene for a few hours.

Power to the area including the Pine Centre Mall was affected by the collision.

BC Hydro attended the scene, replaced the pole and restored power.

This investigation is continuing.

If you have any information about this collision, please contact the Prince George RCMP at 250-561-3300.

Ollinger hangs up coach’s jersey

David Ly

B.C. Summer Games

After 17 years of coaching, 43-year-old Bill Ollinger of Prince George is going into retirement, and he’s confident that softball is “not about the ball in the end, [but] it’s about relationship building.”

It’s difficult to argue with Ollinger as he and the boys on his CaribooNorth East (Zone 8) team smile and joke with each other, fostering strong bonds. This is the first BC Summer Games for all the boys and they’re “really liking the experience,” says Ollinger. He’s grateful for the privilege of coaching such an ecstatic group of boys for the last tournament of his career. Although he doesn’t have children of his own, Ollinger comments that the teams he has coached have “always been all my kids. It’s been a very rewarding experience.”

Leaving the sport of softball along with Ollinger is 12-year-old Cody Boulding who happens to be the youngest member of the Cariboo-North East team. The Prince George native said his journey to the BC Summer Games has been long, but he’s glad his “team is really supportive.”

Cody’s strong connection with his team is proof of Ollinger’s claim that softball isn’t just about the ball. The young player will have other teammates in his future, as he is hoping to get into lacrosse and baseball.

Though the cold rain wasn’t letting up at Cloverdale Athletic Park, the team was able to find warmth in each other’s company, setting a true example of deep relationships built with every hard swing of the bat.

■ kemano

Back up tunnel get the go-ahead

After consultation with local municipalities, Victoria issued an amendment to its 1950 agreement, as previously amended in 1987 and 1997, with Rio Tinto Alcan under the Industrial Development Act to allow for the company to complete its Kemano Back Up Tunnel Project.

Under the 2012 Amendment, Rio Tinto Alcan has been granted the authority to put in the second tunnel, connect the second tunnel to the first tunnel and existing penstocks, and complete the partially built intake for the second tunnel at West Tahtsa Lake.

The 2012 Amendment does not authorize the addition of any other works - it does not provide any increase in water rights, and no other new works (including, but not limited to, the addition of new penstocks and related generators) are authorized by the agreement.

Upon issuance of the amendment, Rio Tinto Alcan will direct its 110 workers back to the work site and will expedite a return to a full construction schedule.

As part of its commitment to open government, the government of British Columbia, along with Rio Tinto Alcan, consulted with municipal governments in Kitimat, Vanderhoof, and Prince George before issuing this amendment. As well, Rio Tinto Alcan has consulted with local First Nations.

B.C. wins on timber-pricing policy A ruling handed down Wednesday on B.C.’s timber pricing policies is being hailed as a victory on this side of the border.

The London Court of International Arbitration ruled that the province’s timber pricing policies are consistent with the Softwood Lumber Agreement, which was signed in 2006.

“This is a total victory for British Columbia and Canada and is great news for B.C.’s lumber workers and their families,” said Pat Bell, minister of jobs, tourism, and innovation, in a press release. “Our government has worked hard to defend and create jobs for British Columbians and to demonstrate that the U.S.’s complaints were unwarranted and groundless.”

A 2011 complaint filed by the U.S. alleged that B.C. was selling softwood at less than market value, given an increase in the harvest of low-grade timber.

The increased amount of low-grade timber in B.C. is the result of the unprecedented and devastating mountain pine beetle infestation. B.C.’s auction-based pricing system ensures that the full value of timber has been captured by govern-

ment, said Bell.

“We are extremely pleased with the panel’s decision dismissing all of the United States’ claims in their entirety,” said John Allan, president, B.C. Lumber Trade Council. “The arbitration process was lengthy and thorough and the outcome demonstrates that the B.C. timber pricing system is not in breach of the Softwood Lumber Agreement as the U.S. had claimed.”

B.C. and Canada have maintained it would have been far more productive for the U.S. lumber industry to join them to increase demand for wood products across North America, such as what B.C. is doing with its Wood First initiative.

In the meantime, British Columbia has diversified its lumber export markets during the arbitration period. B.C. has focused on developing Asian markets, experiencing tremendous growth in recent years. For example, B.C. has more than doubled its lumber exports to China each of the past three years, said Bell.

B.C. will continue to support the Softwood Lumber Agreement to create a predictable trade environment

and to provide stability and certainty to producers and consumers on both sides of the border. Canada has signed an extension to the

agreement to October 2015.

The London Court of International Arbitration Tribunal was a three-person panel presided over by

Dr. Klaus Sachs. Canada appointed Professor Albert Jan van den Berg and the United States appointed Mr. V. V. Veeder. The decision

dismissing the U.S. claims was unanimous.

The 131-page final award will be released in public form in about 10 days.

Getting to the core issues

The time has come for people in Prince George to state where they see the City of Prince George being able to improve the services it provides.

The Core Services Review the city has undertaken is reaching the end of another public-input phase, with this week being an important one for people who want a say in what the city is doing right and wrong in the services it provides.

The city has provided a number of ways for people to get involved. One is an online survey, available at www.princegeorge.ca, and then look for Core Review Survey in the Frequently Visited Pages box to the left.

The city has organized its services into seven separate areas, and there is a separate survey for each. The seven areas are planning; development; emergency and enforcement; internal support services; public works; parks, recreation and culture; and governance and leadership.

Each area has a service profile which descrbes what services are provided in that area, what the service level is, and performance, rationale and budget for each service in that area.

You can make your opinions known in any or all of the program area surveys, or you can provide comments in the summary survey.

The surveys will be available online until Aug. 3.

As well, Wednesday, July 25, provides an opportunity to get questions answered and make your opinions known during a public workshop. The workshop is set for 6 p.m. at the Civic Centre, and you have to register to attend. You can do so by calling 250-5617602 or e-mailing csrworkshop@city.pg.bc.ca.

If you need more information on council’s strategic priorities as you go through the program areas, that information is available on the same website as the surveys.

Council is doing a great job of making sure the public has every opportunity to have a say in how the core services it provides should be administered.

There are a couple of things to remember, however.

First, there is clearly no way they can incorporate every suggection made during this ongoing process into the city’s strategic plans.

Second, the final decisions on what the core services will look like when the review is completed still rest with council.

They have indicated they want to hear from the citizens. It is up to the citizens to take advanatge of this opportunity – and then it up to council to show it listened to the concerns of all the people, not just a select few.

Think of this process as being like an election. The old saying is, “If you don’t vote, don’t complain about who gets in.”

In this case, if you don’t make your feelings known about what the core services the city provides should look like in the future, don’t complain when things don’t unfold the way you want them to.

Making a technology plan

Last week we received great news from the London Court of International Arbitration with a ruling that completely dismissed the actions by the U.S.A. against B.C.’s lumber producers.

What makes this so unique is that there is no right of appeal and no further action can be taken on this complaint. The decision came earlier than expected as the Tribunal had until early 2013 to post its decision. It feels to me like this may lead to a new relationship with American producers where we work together PATBell on key initiatives like building in the commercial and institutional sector with wood instead of wasting our energy on court proceedings.

About a week ago I introduced our new Technology Plan as the final element of our Jobs Plan. About 84,000 people in B.C. work in the technology sector in very high paying (average $63,000) jobs. The industry is spread in every part of B.C. and helps support our core industries like mining, forestry, energy and agriculture with new and innovative approaches to support productivity.

I am calling our strategy a “Commercialization Strategy” as opposed to a Technology Strategy because my goal is to see more of these innovations commercialized in B.C.. The plan is built around four goals: • Accelerate technology commercialization and adoption.

• Build on regional strengths to create new opportunities.

• Develop talent for a knowledge-based economy.

• Expand markets for British Columbia’s technology This week’s Top 10 brings you a sense of what the plan is all about.

1. Expand and enhance small business venture capi-

tal program tax credits and target venture capital programs to help companies attract later-stage financing and accelerate business growth.

2. Add $12 million per year into the Innovative Clean Energy Fund to encourage the development of new sources of clean energy and energy technologies.

3. Increase adoption for the use of natural gas, clean electricity and hydrogen in the MLA transportation sector.

Report 4. Continue the Pacific Carbon Trust’s investment in technology projects that improve the efficiency of B.C. industries and use innovative B.C. technology.

5. Introduce a $7 million B.C. commercialization voucher program to encourage qualified small and medium-sized enterprises to partner with B.C. public post-secondary institutions to accelerate commercialization of B.C. innovations.

6. Support First Nations to develop clean power supplies and community energy systems with the First Nations Clean Energy Business Fund.

7. Use planned investments in public buildings across the province as opportunities to pilot commercial scale deployment of new B.C..

8. Promote and market B.C. technology-based solutions, particularly in Asian markets, and attract foreign investment for innovative B.C. technology.

9. Advance a new Productivity BC initiative to help small and medium-sized enterprises increase cost efficiencies, production scalability and business sustainability.

10. Work with B.C. businesses to develop their capacity to leverage industrial regional benefits to commercialize and bring new technologies to market more quickly.

■ Opening night of PGX

54.40 looks back on 30 years of music B.C. rockers will be at Exhibition Grounds on Aug. 8 ALLan Wishart allanw@pgfreepress.com

Neil Osborne laughs when asked about the longevity of the band 54.40.

The Canadian group, which plays on the opening night of the Prince George Exhibition, Aug. 8, has been together for more than 30 years.

“No, I didn’t think we’d still be playing music as a band 30 years later. When you’re 18 or 19, you don’t think 30 years ahead.”

The name of the band, to the surprise of no one who knows Canadian history, comes from an American political slogan of the 1840s: “54.40 or fight,” meaning the United States should get all the territory to 54.40 north, which would have been the southern border of Alaska (then still Russian territory).

Brad (Merritt) and I went to high school together in Tsawwassen. I lived all over Canada, and Brad had lived all over the U.S., because of the jobs our dads had.

“So we met on the border, and decided to call the band 54.40.”

From their earliest days until today, 54.40 sticks to its own material, with few, if any, cover tunes found in their shows.

“It just seemed easer to do your own songs,” Osborne says.

“You’d be listening to another song, trying to figure out what chord the guy was playing and listen to the lyrics. It was easier to write my own songs.

“Then I knew them.”

Osborne says for him, it’s usually the music that comes first.

“I think it’s easier to get a mel-

ody because you can just be jamming and suddenly something catches your ear. So I’ll usually get most of the melody, then think about lyrics.”

Of course, what you hear in a 54.40 show and on their albums isn’t generally what Osborne brought to the rest of the band.

“I bring in the ‘Gordon Lightfoot’ version,” he says with a laugh. “It’s usually just my guitar and the vocals.”

Then the rest of the band gets hold of it.

“You speed it up a it, put some electric guitar on it, get me shouting the lyrics, and it doesn’t sound quite the same.”

Knowing Osborne’s penchant for melody-first music makes the group’s next album somewhat unusual.

“The next album is pretty much lyric-driven. It was just the way it worked out. We’re still working the songs up, so I don’t know if we’ll have anything ready to go by the time we get up there.”

Looking back on his musical influences, Osborne sees two distinct groups.

“When I was growing up, I was the youngest in the family, so my older brothers and sisters’ choices influenced what I heard.

My oldest brother brought home Led Zeppelin’s first album. I listened to Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones.

“Then when I was in high school, it was New Wave, like the Cure, the Clash and even the Sex Pistols. I think groups like that were the inspiration for the band.”

Ph o to s ub mitte d

When 54.40 take the stage for the opening night of the Prince George Exhibition on Aug. 8, expect to hear 30 years of hits. Don’t expect to see the sunglasses.

Fans of 54.40 can expect to hear their favourites when the group plays the Exhibition on Aug. 8.

Osborne says there’s no way to fit 30 years of music into a single show.

“People are usually familiar with 10 to 14 of our hits, so we do most of those, then we round it

out with six or seven other songs.

Those might be new songs, songs we like and haven’t played for a while.”

Osborne says the group has found out one thing about its shows.

“If we’re going to change the set list, we’ll usually do it with

the songs in the middle of the show. The last three or four songs we find work well together, and when we get to that point, it’s like ‘Let’s take it home, boys.’”

Admission to the 54.40 show on Aug. 8 is included with your gate admission for the Prince George Exhibition.

Historic Park takes a look at trapping history Staff from Fort St James National Historic Site and members of the BC Trappers Association have been working together over the past few months to bring fur trade past and present practice to life in the 200-yearold fort.

As part of the historic site’s messaging and mandate, fur trade practices and commerce are at the very heart of programs that transpire daily. However, as generations age and youth become older, the number of people aware of their Fur trading roots has declined, leading to an innovative new partnership between the two organizations.

Activities between the two groups have so far included exchanges in interpretive knowledge and programs. Fort St. James National Historic Site contributed a large scale booth to the recent provincial annual general meeting of the BCTA in Vanderhoof, and key members of BCTA locals in Prince George and Fort Fraser have been conducting beaver skinning demonstrations to intrigued people

on both National Aboriginal Day and Canada Day festivities. Several additional trapper talks and skinning demonstrations are scheduled to occur on additional special events during the summer, giving rise to possible Trapper Education courses being delivered from Fort St. James and cross training for park interpreters working at the historic park.

FSJ Heritage Days, set for August 4 and 5 will offer the next opportunity for visitors to engage with the BC Trappers Association and learn first hand their traditional knowledge and practices of living as stewards of the land. Other activities will include restoration talks about how the heritage buildings were conserved, tomahawk throwing, flint knapping, black powder demonstrations and a lot more.
