BUSKERS FESTIVAL AWES CROWDS

Risk of apprentice shortage looks positive for students Cailyn Mocci EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Ω With the upswing of the economy and large projects coming online in B.C. and over Canada, businesses are expecting a shortage of apprentices. Dean of Trades and Technology, Baldev Pooni, views this perfect storm as a positive for TRU students.

Normally, students will participate in their initial

training certificates lasting the duration of six to nine months then depart into the search for apprenticeships. Unlike many undergraduate degrees, trade programs base student’s education on a combination of workplace education and formal training. Students on average take three to four years to achieve Red Seal status, allowing them a license to work across Canada.

“If the economy is not doing so well, then the employers might not be hiring as many people and

there may not be as many people in apprenticeships.

But then when the economy swings around, now you need people but you didn’t have the people coming through,” Pooni said.

Pooni suggests that businesses must look beyond the horizon to maintain a strong workforce to power the list of large projects across B.C.

Trades students can expect high demands after grad CONTINUED (COVER) “In order to supply qualified people, not only must you do that initial training but an employer must apprentice them and put them through their training program,” Pooni said, Projects coming down the line within the province include the ongoing widening of the highways, the oil pipeline, the LNG Project in Northern B.C. and the expansion of transit lines to name a few.

“We not only need to replace the retiring people but we also need to have more people,” Pooni suggested.

This shortage is becoming a concern for employers as the lack of qualified people may impact the timeline of these large project; delaying or even halting completely.

“You almost have to project four years ahead as to what’s going to be happening then,” Pooni said, “This is not new to employers. Employers are looking beyond the horizon.”

Pooni suggests that the shortage is a result of a large number of retirements mixed with the high cost of apprenticing large numbers of students to fill these positions to a surplus.

To combat this shortage, TRU is working to build their program scheduling to flexibly fit ebbs and flows of seasonal work and facilitating communication lines with

employers and apprentices.

“We’ve been in a good cycle in the last 20 years in British Columbia and a lot of people that may have otherwise retired have put off their retirement for when the time is good.

Now we’ve got that perfect storm coming,” Pooni said.

In addition to keeping lines open between students and employers, Pooni believes that to keep interested in trades-driven careers, high schools must introduce first-hand experiences for students as young as grade nine.

“If people don’t look at these careers by the time they’re 16/17, they may have missed out on doing some of the prerequisites courses they could’ve done in high school to see a pathway this way. If they haven’t done that then post-high school they’re trying to do the upgrading so it puts them behind and costs more,” Pooni said.

Pooni is confident that TRU students will see success as this supply and demand.

“It’s like winding up a machine to get it going. It’s tough to get going and eventually it gets going then if something happens it has to slow down,” Pooni said, “This is the nature of this kind of work, but it’s really good that there is this kind of shortage because the salary will rise because they’re in high demand.”

TRU Trades and Technology prides themselves in high apprenticeship success rates. (Cailyn Mocci/The Omega)

TRU’s Wellness Centre expansion in the works Student safe haven set to expand to double the original size for September Cailyn Mocci EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Ω The pint-size Wellness Centre will soon be getting a new look due to the ongoing Old Main renovations current students have come familiar with.

Wellness Coordinator, Chelsea Corsi, claims the current location has been “bursting at the seams”.

In a Student Services review in 2015, it was expressed that the Wellness Centre was in need of more space. Renovations have been within the plans for the Wellness Centre, to maintain a space that is conducive to student wellness.

Corsi joked that the current location could fit seven and a half students.

Last year alone, the Wellness Centre saw a significant increase in traffic with 5,854 students passing through from Sept. to March. This was a 600% traffic increase compared to their first year in the

current location four years ago.

Corsi expressed that since their first year at their location just off Student Street, the Wellness Centre has grown into a great source of peer support for students. The Wellness Centre will see seven returning Peer Ambassadors, tasked with providing support to students and keeping the centre running.

The Wellness Centre has become a safe haven for students.

“People find that our space is approachable, open; they feel comfortable,” Corsi said.

“We have a lot of people on campus who identify as feeling lonely because they’re new and not from Kamloops and don’t have social connections,” Corsi said, “We also want to acknowledge that social connection is a huge part of student’s wellbeing”.

The renovation plans to expand the Wellness Centre to nearly double the original size with a socializing space, quiet room and an extra office for private conversations with Peer

Ambassadors when needed.

Renovations will retrofit the Wellness Centre and Medical Clinic space just off Student Street.

“There can be a little tension between the students that want to come and have a quiet space, but we have students that want to come and socialize and get to know people and that’s part of their wellbeing,” Corsi said.

The Wellness Centre will also be outfitted to be more accessible for students who have physical supports such as wheelchairs.

The expansion of the Wellness Centre is the next step to grow their reach on campus.

On top of peer support, Corsi and her team held an estimated 36 campus activities including Consent Tea and Cannabis Cafe.

The renovations are planned to be finished just in time for the first week of Sept. with an official open house to celebrate the expansion in October. For more information on the official opening date keep an eye open on the Wellness Centre’s social media pages.

Corsi is excited for the best location for the centre yet. (Cailyn Mocci/The Omega)

Local filmmakers present emotional documentary to full Paramount Theatre

NOW

HIRING

The search for Ryan Shtuka remains alive in local documentary Cailyn Mocci

FOR SEPTEMBER START

EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Ω Nearly 17 months after the disappearance of 20-year-old Ryan Shtuka in Sun Peaks Village, the community continues to search. Local filmmakers Russel Walton and Jared Featherstone have created a documentary, funded

by Telus Storyhive, to keep the search for Ryan alive in everyone’s memory.

The Paramount Theatre, in downtown Kamloops, had never looked so full as locals and loved ones of the Shtuka family piled in for a viewing of Peaks and Valleys: The Search for Ryan Shtuka, a documentary telling the story of Ryan Shtuka and his mysterious disappearance from Sun Peaks.

“That I stand here before you still seems so surreal. Today marks almost 17 months since our son Ryan has been missing,” Heather Shtuka, Ryan’s mother, said, “A tragic and pained journey that has been filled with indescribable grief and yet unexpected blessings. It’s a terrible paradox”.

The documentary follows the Shtuka family’s never-ending hunt for their son who went missing while living out a young man’s adventure of working and doing what he loved in the mountains.

Both Walton and Featherstone felt an immense drive to keep this story alive, as this story could have been either one of them.

“What grabbed us about this story right from the beginning was that we grew up in Kamloops and we’ve been in Ryan’s shoes before. We’ve been up at Sun Peaks,” Featherstone said, “When we heard about what happened that night, or what could’ve

“Watching the finished product, I want to express how proud we are of what [Walton and Featherstone] have accomplished. It is clear to me that what started out as a project about a missing child quickly became a labour of love,” Heather Shtuka praised.

The evening viewing was an emotional journey through the disappearance that hits home for many locals and families of missing children.

“Whether a child goes missing

willing, unwillingly or unknowingly.

We as loved ones are left to navigate through the unfathomable nightmare,” Shtuka said.

Attendees were encouraged to donate to the Kamloops Search and Rescue, to keep their hard work going.

New festival brings Canadian music to the mountain town Squamish Constellation Festival finally hits the music scene with inaugural event Cailyn Mocci EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Ω After two years of planning and hard work, the Squamish Constellation Festival finally became a reality for the coastal mountain community. With the Stawamus Chief looming in the distance, Squamish locals and travellers enjoyed the showcase of Canadian art, food and drink.

This three-day festival took on a relaxed, easy-going feel in the pintsized festival grounds of Hendrickson Field. The Constellation Festival kept the vibe local and focused on supporting small businesses with local craft beverages and

food trucks feeding attendees all weekend long.

With support from Creative BC, the Squamish Constellation Festival brought in big names in Canadian music such as headliners Serena Ryder, Jessie Reyez and The Bahamas.

Music could be heard flooding the surrounding neighbourhoods as Squamish locals and newcomers soaked up the sunshine. Afternoons at Constellation were relaxed with attendees basking in the sun on picnic blankets as they peacefully jammed to the ongoing jams of Vancouver indie-soul band The Boom Booms and Vancouver rock band Peach Pit. Nostalgia kicked in when Fred

Penner took the stage for a set directed towards the young ones in the audience but instead lead to a crowd of adults passionately singing along to the Itsy Bitsy Spider at the direction of Penner.

Indigenous DJ collective A Tribe Called Red brought their broad range of musical influences based in modern hip-hop, traditional pow wow drums and vocals, blended with edgy electronic music production styles as the sun dipped behind the mountains leading up to Saturday’s headliner Jessie Reyez.

With a focus on art and culture, there was more to the festival than the musical sets. One loop through the festival grounds and you could see a dozen of artists creating amongst the sunshine and music.

Festival attendees could even try their hand at painting in a giant adult paint-by-number provided by Paintillio.

Even with a clear police and security presence, the weekend seemed to go off without any major issues.

Squamish Constellation Festival held pride in their efforts towards a sustainable festival grounds.

By the end of the weekend, festival-goers seemed exhausted and happy from a weekend of dancing among the mountain.

Hobbs and Shaw is a spinoff film in the Fast and Furious franchise where Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham play two spies whose conflicted past and hatred for one another hold a surprisingly fun show to watch and is far more

in a better light and gives regular cites and settings into more lively atmospheres. The characters stop being seen as the embodiment of alpha-male mentality and become characters that reflect the moral side of every argument in the same way anime protagonists have done it for years.

The '70s action style that the story also gives a lot to work with just due to the fact that the characters don’t focus on it that mush anyway. At one point, it just stops being about saving the world from a deadly virus stuck in a focal character just to have siblings forgive each other for their childhood actions.

Hobbs and Shaw isn’t a thinking piece, it isn’t going to leave people smarter than before they watched it. But viewing it from a different perspective gives it far more personality than meets the eye and holds a lot of entertainment that, if taken as less serious as possible, will leave a smile on a viewer’s face.

Hobbs and Shaw is about two spies in the Fast and Furious universe who are tasked to work together and find/stop a deadly bio-weapon that has the capability to have almost all of humanity wiped out.

The best way to describe this film and this series in a nutshell was actually given to me by a Youtuber by the name The Cosmonaut Variety Hour with his video titled “I Became a Fast and Furious Fan in One Week - And You Can Too�.

In it, he goes on to show that, if you watch the series not as a realistic action movie with a focus on cars but as an anime, the series takes on such a new meaning.

So many times, I’d watch a scene that, if taken normally, would be taken as unrealistic, cheesy and clichÊ. But when you change your perspective to the rules and regulars that anime hold, those same scenes become more enjoyable, shows the characters

You are taking a late-night stroll or sitting on your deck staring at the starry sky and whoosh, a quick streak of light catches your attention. You have just witnessed the fiery re-entry of space debris called a meteor. In a few cases, they can be nuts, bolts and wires from damaged satellites orbiting high above the earth. However, the majority of sightings are visitors from outer space. No, not the alien variety but leftover material from the early creation of the solar system.

The average faint meteor is the size of a grain of sand or the period at the end of this sentence. Whereas other brighter “heart stoppers� that light up the ground could be many centimetres in size. Striking the

Once Upon a Time... In Hollywood film review Tarantino's film shows a lot but asks a lot of it's audience's background knowledge Morgan Hunter CONTRIBUTOR Ί Quentin Tarantino’s latest film about two actors and their lives in Hollywood gives a lot of exciting, comical and downright entertaining scenes in its runtime. However, the film does the one thing a film shouldn’t have to do in order to be enjoyed: asks the audience to do research before and after the film. This movie has forced both moviegoers and me alike to re-evaluate

how a structured story should be portrayed, in both a negative and positive manner.

OUAT...IH is about two veterans in the film industry, actor Rick Dalton as a struggling TV star hoping to star in movies and Cliff Booth as an old stuntman just trying to meet ends meet. It follows both their friendship and their lives throughout the early ’70s. It also involves Sharon Tate and Charles Manson’s family.

Now, the last part of that paragraph seems sudden and out of place, almost like it didn’t

need to be there at all, right? It's almost twice as bad in the film.

Yes, Margot Robbie does as good as she usually does, but it's just this weird, out of place third plot that holds nothing for the story.

The plotline is supposed to show the grim reality of what actually occurred in the 1970s of the Tate murders, a night where Sharon Tate and four other adults were killed by the Manson family directed by Charles Manson. And that entire third plotline that revolves around Sharon Tate holds no value if

those events are not known before watching this film, which forces this movie to break a cardinal rule of film making. The story stays in the medium.

If any outside event or fact is needed to understand the film, it fails from a narrative standpoint. If the quality of the film depends on the audience member going home and researching certain things just to understand the theme, it fails on how it tells its story. It isn’t the job of the viewer to go and go through hoops to understand the

message of a movie, it's the job of the film to show that message in a clear way while still having deeper meanings attached to it.

The film becomes such a great story when those events are known. But that what makes this film forgettable and one of Tarantino's weaker films. Not that it holds a lot of relevance to an event, but that viewers must know said event or else they won’t enjoy the show. And, frankly, that isn’t and never will be the viewer's job.
