The Point Race will be replaced by the end of June.
That’s the word from Coast Guard spokesman Dan Bate, regarding the controversial decision to replace the 70-foot cutter stationed in Campbell River.
The Point Race will be replaced by a new 47-foot life-boat, nearing completion at dockyards in Victoria. Coast Guard brass, along with MP John Duncan, the Conserva-tive member for North Island, said the 30-year-old Point Race had to be replaced due to age.
However, critics of the replacement say the new ves-sels are not equipped to pro-vide the same level of service as the Point Race. As well, the larger cutter has undergone several refits and is still in tip-top shape.

Call it part two of Alexandra Morton’s “Get Out Migration.”
The “face of salmon farm oppo-
sition” was back at Spirit Square on Wednesday, calling on federal candidates to remove netpen salmon farms from the coastal waters.
“Today we stand with a choice,”
Morton told a small group of supporters, who turned up their coat collars to keep out the biting wind. “We can work with (wild) salmon…or ignore them.”
Morton’s Get Out Migration – a
public campaign to get farmed salmon into closed containment systems or into dry land rearing pens – came through Campbell River last April.
Salmon can’t vote, but are a campaign issue

The notion that emergency vehicles are unable to navigate around traffic on the upgraded section of
the Old Island High-way is nothing more than misinformation and rumours, says the city manager.
Andy Laidlaw told council Tuesday night that after consulta-
tions with two engi-neers involved in the $13.5 million highway project and with local emergency respond-ers, he believes there is sufficient space for emergency vehicles to
pass a vehicle pulled over on the side of the road.
“After reviewing ele-ments of the design and after discussions with the first respond-ers, it’s clear the objectives have been achieved,” said Laid-law, who admitted he should have looked into the accusations earlier to “prevent misinformation and rumour.”
A consultant on the project said the 5.1 metre width along that stretch of highway is more than enough space for emergency vehicles to get by.
“Although the size of fire trucks and other emergency vehicles vary, almost all are 2.6 metres wide or less,” said Richard Drdul, community trans-portation planner. “A typical automobile is 1.8 metres wide and a large pickup truck is two metres wide. If a pickup truck pulls to
the side of the road on Highway 19A and stops, a fire truck would be able to pass with approximately 0.5 metres of clearance.”
But staff at City Hall has been fielding com-plaints for the past few months from motor-ists concerned that the rock centre median and high sidewalk curbs do not allow ample space for fire trucks to get through during an emergency.
Laidlaw said he has met with the fire department, RCMP and ambulance service and all three parties agree the road stan-dard is not an impedi-ment. If need be, emer-gency vehicles are able to mount the curb to navigate around other vehicles.
Laidlaw noted the road was not designed for emergency vehicles to pass at a high speed with lights flashing and sirens blaring (Code three).
Coun. Roy Grant was pleased to hear Laidlaw’s recommen-dation was to not take any action and leave the highway as is.
“Of course every-body in the commu-nity has something to say about this and there’s been a lot of heat tossed back and forth,” said Grant. “But I believe the new section of highway has really cleaned up that part of the entrance into Campbell River. It’s unfortunate there was so much specu-lation and rumours around this project. If the first responders are saying ‘hold it, it’s built to specifications’ then I guess that fits in with what the recom-mendation is.”
Attempts to reach firefighters’ union local president Reid Wharton, who had raised concerns about this issue were unsuc-cessful prior to the Mirror’s deadlline.
Now, with a federal election on May 2, Mor-ton is calling out candi-dates to see where they stand on the issue.
North Island NDP candidate Ronna-Rae Leonard called wild salmon a keystone spe-cies and said she sup-ports closed contain-ment land-based rais-ing of farmed salmon.
Sue Moen of the Green par ty also attended the rally and said people need to work together to find solutions which will result in long-term employment while pro-tecting other species and the environment.
However, neither candidate specified exactly what their par-ties would do. No one attended from Liberal candidate Mike Hol-land’s camp and Con-servative incumbent John Duncan was also a no-show, although he was reportedly spotted in a nearby restaurant sipping hot coffee.
“There’s supposed to be a representative here from John Dun-can’s of fice…John Duncan’s of f ice?” asked Darren Blaney, as his request seemed to blow away in the stiff wind.

Suspected bank robber apprehended
A man suspected of robbing a Parksville bank was arrested Tuesday afternoon in Campbell River.
Douglas Darcy Evenson, 34, was taken into custody, without incident, on a Canada-wide warrant for an alleged breach of parole.
Evenson was paroled in in 2008, following his release from jail on a robbery conviction.
According to Parksville RCMP, a man entered the TD Bank on Saturday, April 9, around 2:50 p.m., told employees he had a weapon and
demanded money.He then fled with
an undisclosed amount of cash.

Many of these enter into your body through body care products, cleaning products and even in the food that you eat. The sources are many. Chemicals are usually tested for human safety individually without concern as to how they will react once inside the human body with toxins already present.
The good news is that many of these chemicals can be eliminated from our homesand you can help your body to detoxify from the ones that are already inside you. There are many options available. One of the best websites devoted to less toxic products in your home is www.lesstoxicguide.ca. It will give you suggestions for less toxic products you can use in your home as well as easy home made options.

Mayor Charlie Corn-field supports River-corp despite admis-sions by some city councillors they have lost faith in the organi-zation.
Cornfield, in a state-ment read at Tues-day’s council meeting, reminded city council that last year it debated the merits of River-corp, which exists to encourage economic development , and “after months of dis-cussion and debate decided to stay with the Rivercorp model.”
At the time, council agreed it valued the jobs Rivercorp creates and the families it sup-ports and confirmed keeping Rivercor p independent from – although funded by – the city.
“The public has been telling us loud and clear that we needed to attract new busi-ness to the city,” said Cornfield. “In Camp-bell River, the model in place for delivery of service is Rivercorp. It has an independent board of directors and their own staff to man-age economic develop-ment, tourism and visi-tor services.”
But a couple of coun-cillors feel Rivercorp has not delivered.
“I’ve been involved with Rivercorp for the last five budgets now, and just strictly from a business decision, the return on investment hasn’t been there,” said Coun. Ziggy Stew-art. “It hasn’t fulfilled my vision of what Riv-ercorp is supposed to be.
“I just can’t support them anymore.”
Coun. Mary Storry believes the public has also lost faith in River-corp.
“The public has said we want these things to happen and we don’t think Rivercorp is the vehicle to do it,” she said. “At this point we’re looking for performance and we haven’t seen the per-formance.”
Last month, council forced Rivercorp to give back $41,000 for a downtown marketing plan that failed to make any major changes downtown.
Ben Chalmers, chair of Rivercorp, said the strategy was presented to city council by the former CEO of the organization without prior approval from the board of directors.
However, that CEO has left Rivercorp and the organization now has a brand-new board.
“ We k n e w t h a t changes were required and appointed a new rejuvenated board of nine volunteer mem-bers based on their expertise in economic sectors and experience on boards,” said Corn-field. “The board has been developing and implementing a rigor-ous search process to identify and recruit a new CEO.
“They are in the final stages of hiring the new CEO and we expect an announce-ment soon.”
C o r n f i e l d a d d e d the Rivercorp board is working with city council to develop a strategic direction for economic development
and believes “council wisely chose to leave the budget the same as last year’s with minor increases for new com-puters, cash registers and offset the deficit.”
Cornfield acknowl-edged Rivercorp has come through on a number of initiatives including: securing a commitment from Fisheries and Oceans Canada to locate new Aquaculture Fisher-ies Officers in the city which added 15 new jobs; secured a BC Bike Race that will bring hundreds of rac-ers to the city; worked with the Forestry Task Force to attract new forestry investment into Campbell River; and hosted the Ride Guide mountain bik-ing television show in the Snowden Demon-stration Forest.

City council made further cuts to city departments at its meeting Tuesday night and increased this year’s budget surplus.
Council began the night with a $238,315 surplus after receiving slightly higher than expected new construc-tion funds and decid-ing to re-instate $36,519 it cut from the RCMP budget two weeks ago.
In a decision made in-camera, which is closed to the public, council will put the money back into the RCMP budget after it discovered the funds are necessary for a crime analyst position which will be filled in May.
Council then spent roughly one hour mak-ing a two per cent, or $260,000, cut to the city’s operating bud-get and the parks and recreation budget, two departments which saw an increase in spending this year over 2010.
Likely the most noticeable cut to the public is the reduction
of summer students from six to four this year, which will save the city $26,000 out of the parks and recre-ation budget.
Council also chose to fund two new free-s t a n d i n g o u t d o o r washrooms at the Spirit Square through the gaming reserve, freeing up $90,000 in the general revenue budget.
Counci l debated reducing the skate-board park host pro-gram by $10,000 but that idea, which was proposed by Coun. Andy Adams, was shot down.
Adams suggested the program be cut down to three-days a week during the summer months and instead increase the presence of security cameras.
Coun. Claire Moglove argued that the skate park hosts are an inte-gral part of the park.
“They mentor the younger kids, many of which would not use the park if there were no hosts because they are intimidated by the older kids,” she said. “I think they are worth retaining,”
Moglove also made an unsuccessful attempt to eliminate a second
$77,000 per year janito-rial position that was added a few months ago and instead spend a maximum of $50,000 to provide security for the staff at the Com-munity Centre after hours.
In the end, council wound up making $297,300 in combined cuts between the two department’s budgets.
Cuts made to the budgets:
■ Council’s strategic planning consultant for 2011 – $5,000
■ Flu shot program – $1,300
■ Kick the Habit smoking program – $2,500
■ Study on sustain-ability feasibility – $10,000
■ Payment Manage-ment System – $50,000
■ Storm drain infra-structure renewal strategy – $28,000
■ Reduction in city manager conference travel – $5,000
■ Communications survey – $22,000

Doug Spence is still remembered for his “high wire” act.
It was a sticky, hot day in Campbell River, well over a decade ago, when Spence was chased by authorities through a downtown law office.
He then climbed out of the window onto a second story ledge, near the Royal Bank,
and remained their for a couple hours while police and firefighters tried to talk him down as pedestrians and motorists stopped to watch the stand-off.
H e e v e n t u a l l y climbed back through the window and was safely taken into cus-tody.
Since then, Spence has occasionally been back in court for vari-ous minor offences.
However, he’s back
in jail and is facing four counts of assault with a weapon and one count of mischief under $5,000. On those matters, Spence has pleaded not guilty and the case is slated for trial in September.
However, while on bail for the alleged offences, Spence com-mitted other crimes and accumulated con-victions for assault, fraudulently obtaining food and transporta-
tion, and breach of court orders.
Spence was recently arrested on a warrant and appeared in court on Monday, via video from jail cells in Vic-toria.
Crown prosecutor David Fitzsimmons asked for his continued detention to ensure Spence’s appearance at the September trial and to prevent him from committing fur-ther offences.
Spence does havelegal representation,but was on his ownduring the bail hear-ing.
“Basically I’ve beenunder a lot of stress,”said Spence, who askedto be released from cus-tody. “Maybe I can getthings under controland get things sortedout.”
But Judge BrianSaunderson disagreedand revoked the origi-nal bail order.

Sea lice and fish health management programs at Grieg Seafood have limited the amount of lice on wild salmon at one of its farms to nearly zero.
As young wild salmon begin their annual outmigra-tion, Grieg Seafood said the success of the programs means they pose no threat to smolts travelling through Okisollo and Hoskyn channels.
The area has been the focus of anti-salmon farming activ-ists concerned about the out migration sea-son for wild salmon.
Grieg Seafood BC Ltd. is operating one
farm – Conville Bay – in the area and recent counts show that sea lice numbers are well controlled.
“We do lice counts every couple of weeks and the April 7 results showed that there were only 0.1 lice per fish and there were no lice that had egg stages present,” said Stewart Hawthorn, Managing Director of Grieg. “It is important that we share this information with the public so they can feel confident about this positive situation.”
There have been con-cerns in the past from anti-fish farm activ-ists regarding the pos-sible risks posed by
salmon farms to the out migrating juve-nile wild salmon that swim from the rivers between March and June every year.
Research-based man-agement programs, required by farming companies through regulations, ensure this is not the case.
Farmers are also working to better explain how they miti-gate potential impacts on the natural envi-ronment.
“To respond to the concerns raised about this area we have
been co-operating with our farming col-leagues through the BC Salmon Farmers Association,” said Hawthorn. “Every month we update what is happening with sea lice numbers at all of the farms operat-ing in this area. This is then posted onto the BCSFA website so that everyone can check it out. This is just another example of how salmon farmers are in fact very open and transparent with respect to our opera-tions.”
Grieg Seafood BC Ltd. sustainably farms salmon on the Sun-shine Coast, on the east side of upper Vancou-ver Island and in the Nootka and Esperanza Inlets.
All of Grieg’s farmed salmon are processed in the locally owned and operated Wal-can plant on Quadra Island and in the com-pany’s own facility on the Sunshine Coast. Grieg directly employs over 140 people and proudly markets its salmon in Canada and the United States.

KRISTEN DOUGLASCAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Concern over main-taining quality edu-cation while facing a $1.1 million deficit has prompted school dis-trict 72 to write a letter to the Minister of Edu-cation.
Helen Moates, school board chair, notes in her letter to Minister George Abbott that despite both enrolment decline ($492,00) and funding protection dol-lars ($508,000) from the provincial government for the 2011/12 budget, the district is still in the red.
“Because we consider the funding protection and enrolment decline monies to be risk fund-ing, we are taking a cautious approach to our longer term fis-cal planning,” Moates writes in her letter. “Between the current structural deficit and the unpredictability of future funding, we are still facing an uphill battle to maintain the delivery of quality public education which school district 72 is so well known for.”
Despite a projected decline in student enrolment next year of 180 kids, the school
district will not see a drop in provincial funding from this year because the province has upped per student funding by $44 which means each student in the Campbell River area is worth $6,784 to the school district.
The one-time fund-ing protection also ensures the school district maintains the same funding levels as last year despite less students attending Campbell River area schools.
However, cost pres-sures “over which we have no control” have contributed to a tough
financial situation. An increase in pen-
sion costs ($335,000) and rising fuel costs are both significant factors as is a depleted savings account.
Typically, a school district can dip into its reserves to offset a deficit but school dis-trict 72’s contingency fund has been used so frequently in the past couple of years that it is too low to be an option.
Moates’ letter, which is dated March 31,2011, is the second letter the school district has sent to the province this year.

“Easter morn with lil-ies fair
F i l l s t h e church with p e r f u m e s rare.”
(Louise L. Matthews)
S i n c e
a n c i e n t times, poetry, literature and m y t h o l o g y have been infused with references to white lil-ies.
The stunning petals symbolize life, purity, and hope – Easter’s spiritual essence – while the bending golden anthers flood surroundings with sunshine.
So while florist shops brim with lilies of every stripe and hue, Mother Earth did it first, still does it best…and all for free.
On Vancouver Island, April’s wild woodlands have burst into bloom with showy Western Trilliums (Trillium ovatum) –of the lily family. A large and majestic plant, which can rise to 20-45 cm (8-20”) in height, the trillium boasts one solitary three-petalled white flower that ages to a regal magenta.
Trillium derives from the Latin for three; the plant bears leaves, petals and sepals in whorls of three, rea-son enough for its nick-name Trinity flower. Likewise, the Latin species name ovatum refers to the trio of egg-shaped leaves.
Trilliums and ants wouldn’t normally be mentioned in the same breath, yet ants play an important role in helping trilliums pro-liferate across the for-est floor. The flowers attract ants with their perfume, and ants then carry away the nutritious seed, to eat the oil organ contain-ing unsaturated fatty acids. This arrange-ment works wonder-fully well for plant and insect.
Tril l iums prefer semi-shade and tend to have wet feet so look for these glorious beauties in moist for-ests, seepage areas or alongside streambanks and riversides.
At this time of year, fawn lilies, both white and pink, often grow alongside trilliums. T h i s s p e c t a c u l a r springtime species can form carpets in shaded
woodlands where soil c o n d i t i o n s a r e o p t i -mum.
White fawn lilies (Eryth-r o n i u m oregonum), while smaller than the tril-l i u m , a r e nevertheless great natu-ral beauties,
with six striking white petals curved upwards, and six golden stamens
dangling like shiny bells.
Celebrate nature’s gift of wild lilies, now in full bloom alongside most nature trails. Campbell River area: Campbell and Quinsam River trails, Beaver Lodge Forest Lands, Simms, Willow and Nunns Creeks. Cour-tenay area: Puntledge River and Nymph Falls trails.

The Gardeners Green Folk Club is having another house concert in Merville on Satur-day, April 23 at 7 p.m. This time they’re fea-turing the four piece band, Quartete a Tete, from Vancouver.
Lynn McGown and Michael Pratt have an infectious love of singing that has delighted audiences in the city and beyond for 30 years. They have played at the Vancou-ver Folk Music Festival four times, and various concerts and folk clubs throughout Canada and the British Isles.
Calling themselves Tete a Tete, they sing with a wonderful sense of fun, passion and harmonies both beau-tiful and unique. They created the Jericho Folk Club in 1995, and also their own concert series at Celtic Tradi-tions, their Vancou-ver shop which is also a music school, where McGown teaches sing-ing. They have a pas-sionate belief in live acoustic music and they create a com-
munity in Vancouver where all are welcome to participate. Have a look at their website for more details: http://celtictraditions.ca
McGown is a native of Montreal and draws from her mother’s Que-becois heritage and her father’s Scottish roots, clogging or play-ing the bodhran as she sings. Besides singing, Pratt plays concertina and fiddle and draws from his Irish roots and his involvement in the British Folk Revival in the 70s before immi-grating to Canada.
They have recently formed an extended musical experience with two other fine musicians, which they call Quartete a Tete. The group includes master gui-tarist Craig McGregor and fiddler Vanessa Kayt.
These fabulous enter-tainers will perform a mix of traditional and contemporary music. Seating is limited, so reserve tickets at 337-5337 for $20 ($10 for children).

Concerts and Auditions for the Children’s Choir
The young singers of the Campbell River Children’s Choir are busy preparing for their wrap up concert, which will be held at the Campbell River United Church on Saturday May 7 at 7:30 p.m.
The choir has had a number of guests working with them this year and they are eager to share their new skills and songs with the public.
The choir is committed to providing “big city” opportunities to local youth and they have sponsored a number of events this year designed to enhance the skills and expand the
musical horizons of the singers.
Su Hart from the United Kingdom, Moira Smiley and VOCO from Los Angeles, Les Voix Boreales from Quebec, and Campbell River’s own Marcello Sequeira have all shared their skills, songs, and talent with the group.
“Musical culture is incredibly vibrant and varied, it draws together people from around the globe and inspires youth to set their goals high and to look beyond their community to the greater world,” says music director Barbara Prowse.
The choir would like to encourage young people aged 7 and up who enjoy music and singing to audition for a place in one of the organization’s
four groups. Auditions will be held in May and can be booked online at crchildrenschoir.ca or by phoning Joanna at 250-202-SING (7464)
Tickets for the Saturday, May 7 concert can be purchased at the Music Plant for $15. This concert will be an emotional one as 11 of the senior singers will be graduating and it will be their last performance with the choir.
There will be a shorter, more informal concert on Sunday, May 8 at 3 p.m. which will highlight the youngest choir.
Tickets for this concert are available at the door on Sunday.
Both Concerts will take place at the Campbell River United Church.

She’s already com-fortable in front of the camera, but it’s her stage presence that will need some polish when Elisha Berk steps up at the Miss Canada Globe Pageant.
“A g i rl I k n ow approached me about this and then my mom told me to go for it,” says the 20-year-old. “I’ve never done any-thing like this before. I’m doing it for the experience.”
Berk is presently fin-ishing up a two-year course in broadcast-
ing/TV production at the Northern Alberta Institute of Technol-ogy (NAIT) in Edmon-ton. Lately she’s been anchoring the NAIT News Watch as well as serving as an editor and producer.
The news desk is one thing, a stage filled with other beauty con-testants from across the country is another. But Berk is looking forward to taking part in the competition, to be held in Toronto in August.
“I’ve never been there. It should be fun,” she says.
Before heading east though, Berk is coming back west to her home in Campbell River. She’ll arrive later in May and will head back to her old job in the pub at Painter’s Lodge. And during her free time, Berk will be rais-ing the $3,000 she needs to attend the pageant (Miss Canada Globe is separate from Miss Canada Universe).
“I’m going to put myself out there to be a spokesperson and to volunteer,” she says.
In June, she will
also travel to Vancou-ver for a preliminary event which assists the contestants in public speaking, posture, etc.
It should be noted that the pageant won’t be Berk’s first time on stage. She starred as Belle in the produc-tion of “Beauty and the Beast” during her senior year at Carihi .
“It’s a pretty exciting time for our family,” says her mom Rene Tetrault. “Elisha has been very determined. She’s a go-getter.”

Jim Dubois intends on leav-ing this world a
more colourful place.Greener, redder,
pinker, all the colours within the rainbow, and all in his little garden.
“I practice square-inch gardening,” he says with a nod towards the green zone between his trailer and the neigh-bour’s, “if there’s a hole, you put some-thing in it.”
He and his partner Linda are still munch-ing on last year’s produce, neatly frozen after harvest, while any extras were given away to the neigh-bours.
Carrots, peppers, tomatoes, Swiss chard, peas, beans, strawber-ries, garlic – lots of garlic – and a variety of other vegetables thrive in the raised beds of the green zone. The veggies and flowers thrive because they’re full of home-churned compost and nitrogen-rich kelp.
“I like it best when it starts to turn a little black,” he says of the kelp he collects after it washes up and starts to rot on the beach in Oyster Bay.
But there’s some-thing more to the intricate garden eco-system which keeps it buzzing: Mason bees.
They’re Dubois’ little helpers. “Perfect pollinators” he calls them and Dubois does his best to make them feel comfortable.
“I build homes for them. Usually two in the winter and I give one away,” he says with a smile.
Mason bees are dif-ferent than hive bees. They’re known as “solitary but gregari-ous nesters” which means they nest close to each other, but each female provisions her own nest.
Dubois builds their nests out of small blocks of wood, drilled with holes which creates narrow, little homes for the bees. He is also experimenting by placing pieces of plastic straws in each hole, which should allow for easier clean-ing once the eggs
hatch and the bees leave home.
And once they leave, they become, well, as busy as bees. The only goal of the males is – don’t snicker – to reproduce with as many females as pos-sible and then die.
It’s the females who are the true workers as they gather extraor-dinary amounts of
pollen which they return to the nest to create balls of feed for their unhatched eggs (they don’t make honey). It is estimated, that Masons out-polli-nate honey bees from rates of 20:1 to as high as 100:1.
They also stick close to home which makes them ideal for pol-

linating fruit trees. As well, Mason bees emerge from their nests earlier in the springtime than most other bees, sometimes too early.
“I found one out the other day, but it was lousy weather,” says Dubois, who gen-tly picked it up and placed it near one of the many homes in his yard, under the shel-ter of a plastic planter.
Mason bees are also less prickly than other bees. In the 12 years he’s been keeping them, Dubois has been stung just once. He figures he was tossing some old blooms into the compost and acci-dentally squeezed a small bee between his
fingers. Naturally, it stung him.
“Have you ever put a nine-volt battery to your tongue? It felt like that,” says Dubois, who points out the non-aggressive Mason bees do not have a venom gland.
The biggest chal-lenge facing Mason bees, he says, is habi-tat destruction and
death from chemical poisoning, usually pesticides. That’s why he builds homes for the bees and keeps his garden naturally organic.
Keeping the bees healthy is important to Dubois, 65, who has also battled for survival. In 2008, he received a new lease on life when he
received a lung trans-plant due to a degen-erative disease.
“This is just bonus time,” says Dubois, who is also a talented nature photographer. “I believe in ‘paying it forward,’ especially after the transplant. Pollinators are so important and it’s easy to help them…(Mason bees) are real gentle little things and they’re great for helping anyone to break out of their bee-phobia.”
■ Dubois will dis-play his Mason bee nests and some of his photographs on Wednesday, April 20, 5-7:30 p.m., in the Tide-mark Theatre lobby during the Earth Week celebration.

Stephen Harper is one scary, scary dude. His continued presence in the prime minister’s chair threatens our very Canuck-ness.
We know this, because we’ve seen it several times in advertisements that have filled our flatscreens every evening since the election was triggered.
And don’t get us started on that Michael Ignatieff guy. Plenty of
commercials have let us know the man is barely even Canadian. He’s going to sell us down the river for sure. Frightening. (For those not feeling the tone of
the above, insert sarcasm emoticon here).In reality, our prospective leaders are not quite as
chilling as the lengths their parties will go to in their predictable bids to gain power by throwing heaping handfuls of mud at the other guy.
As usual, the federal election campaign is taking the low road, launching an offensive blitz aimed at exploiting the Canadian public’s emotional hot buttons and pandering to our lowest common denominators. And that is why it was a pleasant change of pace to watch the five men chasing the provincial NDP leadership in action in Ladysmith Wednesday. Their lack of rancour was stunning.
This should not be construed as any indication the NDP hopefuls are different. We’ve seen Horgan and Dix carve up the Campbell Liberals before.
What it does indicate is civility and co-operation is possibile among even the most ambitious souls when those souls have similar goals. We’d like to believe even Ignatieff and Harper (and Layton and Duceppe and May) share a goal of a strong and healthy Canada. Next month, we could have yet another minority government. Wouldn’t our country be better served by individuals who have shown the ability, or at least the desire, to get along?

Ad campaigns a poor choiceOur ViewOur View
Questionable rankings are starting to smell
We say: Federal parties rely too much on fearmongering
Good point: FishWhile I completely support the title of Mike Moore’s
recent letter (Wild fish important to the health of B.C. coast, April 13) the actual content was nothing more than a typical attack full of half-truths and flat out lies about salmon farming in B.C.
Regrettably, after 19 years of being a salmon farmer, I find this to be quite typical prior to elections.
Mr. Moore is concerned that a salmon farm located in Hoskyn Channel (east side of Quadra Island) may threaten the survival of out-migrating Fraser River sockeye, and asks that it be removed. He suggests that the number of active farms in the area is “six farms along this waterway alone.”
That is wrong – there is one – and this information has been posted publicly since February at Salmon-Farmers.org.
For some important context – when last year’s record run of Fraser River sockeye went to sea in 2008, there were five sites in operation in Hoskyn and Okisollo Channel. Today there is one.
But regardless of the number of sites operating, what’s important to understand is that all farms oper-ate under strict regulations that ensure our fish are very healthy and that sea lice levels are very low to ensure no risk to out-migration fish – and all despite zero evidence that juvenile sockeye are actually harmed by sea lice (which they do host naturally even at a small size).
Rankings are all the rage these days: world’s most liveable cities; B.C.’s best elementary schools; Can-ada’s best places to live; the nation’s worst ranking surveys.
Okay, the last one I made up. But it seems you can’t escape these rank-ings. They make good copy, as they say.
I just read an article about the top 20 hardest working nations in the Organization for Economic Develop-ment (OECD). Canada placed fourth. That surprises me.
But, like all these rankings, they’re highly interpretive not only by the people compiling the rankings but also by the media presenting them (and they’re not necessarily one and the same). The “hardest working” nations are actually the ones with
the most amount of average time workers spend on the job in a day. So, you may not be necessarily the most productive, you just may be in the office longer than the average in other countries.
And that opens up a whole can of interpretations.
I once had a reporter here who spent long hours at the office. Because he worked hard? Yes, he worked hard but, as he readily admits, he was slow. A great guy, he was perfectly happy to come back after supper to get his work done. He got it all done and on time. He just took a long time to do it. He probably pushed Canada’s ranking in the OECD study to fourth place by himself.
So, what is this OECD ranking tell-ing us? Whatever you want it to. And
that’s my point. Is Campbell River the fifth worst city in Canada? No, it placed fifth worst in a ranking of 180 municipalities, according to a lim-ited set of criteria skewed towards economic indicators. We have a high unemployment rate (11 per cent). That was weighted heavily in Mon-eySense’s rankings. Is 11 per cent so bad? We lost two major industrial employers – of course we’re going to deal with a number of people out of work.
But as many have pointed out, there’s a lot of of criteria that make up a good place to live. Many of those weren’t even considered by Money-Sense. The criteria were selective and the interpretations are subjective. But you can’t beat a headline saying “Canada’s 10 worst municipalities.”
So, that’s why we’re going to do a ranking. H’mm, what will it be?
How about: the 10 biggest lies about fish farming (could be pro or con)? The 10 most wasteful city projects. The top five most studied issues by council.
What about Campbell River’s five most sacred cows? Unimpeded oceanfront view? The right to speed down Dogwood? A parking spot right in front of the store you want to go into at that moment? The right to pile as much garbage as you want on the curb and have it carted off to the dump at no extra cost? And, of course, the inalienable right to not have anything about your life changed in a way that inconveniences you in any way whatsoever – which is to say, never.

April is awareness month for Parkinson's Disease and it is rec-ognized internation-ally to coincide with the birth month of Dr. James Parkinson, for whom the disease was named.
If you have Parkin-son’s or know some-one who does, you are not alone. This is the message that Par-kinson Society Brit-ish Columbia (PSBC)wants to convey to the 11,000 individuals liv-ing with Parkinson’s in the province.
"The Society’s ser-vices include informa-tion, resources, and education for people living with Parkin-son’s," said CEO Diane
Robinson. "We are reaching out so that we can help as many people as possible in BC and let them know that they are not alone in dealing with Parkin-son’s."
A member of the local self help sup-port group comments on some of life’s chal-lenges living with Par-kinson’s disease.
“I was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 1996, at the age of 46. Never - had I even considered that Par-kinson's was the cause of the symptom's I was experiencing. I knew that old people could get this terrible disease but I was young, active, working, and living life
with passion. My hus-band and I had plans.”
“Over the years, as the disease has pro-gressed, I feel like I have become trapped in a body that rules my life. I feel tied to a med-ication alarm clock that dictates when and if I can do certain tasks or even function in a social setting.
“My husband and I have the encourage-ment and support of family and friends, but it wasn't until we started to attend the local Parkinson's Self Help Support Group, that we experienced the support that can only come from those who are walking step by step down the same
path. These wonder-ful people have helped my husband and I to feel that we are not alone in coping with the challenges we face every day.
In 2010, PSBC con-tributed $320,000 to researchers in BC - Dr. Martin McKeown, Pacific Parkinson’s Research Centre at UBC, Dr. Gordon Rintoul and Dr. Frank Lee, Simon Fraser University, Catherine Winstanley and Kait-lyn Roland, both from UBC-Okanagan.
Parkinson’s is the
second most common degenerative neuro-logical disorder after AIzheimer’s.
Parkinson’s is a cruel disease that affects not only the person with Parkinson’s but also their family.
The symptoms are many and include tremor, rigidity, pos-tural instability, dif-ficulty talking, walk-ing and swallowing, reduced facial expres-sion, depression and dementia.
It can strike anyone. There is currently no known cure.

Mr. Moore then states that “every single channel and passage to the north of the Straight of Georgia has salmon farms situ-ated in them.”
This is not quite true as Johnstone Strait, the largest channel of water that runs up the East side of Van-couver Island, has no salmon farms. I would kindly ask that before Mr. Moore jump on a political campaign, that he learn about the
subject he writes about and that the thousands of salmon farmers working in B.C. are awarded the common decency of fact check-ing before misinforma-tion is printed in our local papers.

Play ball!The action gets intense at second base during Saturday’s Campbell River minor baseball game between the Red Sox and the Yankees. The Yankees came away with a 7-4 victory in the first weekend of the minor baseball season.
The Campbell River Gymnastics Associa-tion (CRGA) sent 10 girls last weekend to the provincial cham-pionships held in Lan-gely.
All the best gymnasts in the province attend this competition and the CRGA girls could measure up against the best of them.
C a m p b e l l R ive r started out the compe-tition with their Level 2 Argo athletes. Rebecca Tazumi and Mackenzie Henderson performed well in a field of close to 50 athletes. Hender-son was able to land her back walkover on
beam for the first time in competition and showed much improve-ment in her all around score to finish 25th in the all around. Tazumi had a big vault talking a few extra steps on the landing to finish fourth. Henderson also finished ninth on the bars and 18th in the all around.
The next competi-tion featured Camp-bell River’s Level 2 Novice athletes. Katie Lund lead the way with consistent and strong performances on all her apparatus. Lund

finished 16th in the all around with her best finish being on the bars where she placed 11th.
Mackenzie Johnson, attending her first provincials, came in the competition with some new skills. She performed a back lay-out off the uneven bars for the first time and a backwalkover on the beam.
Johnson’s best finish was an 11th place fin-ish on the floor.
Faith Barton toughed out a rip she got in warm up on the bars and a second rip on her other hand during the
competition. Barton did not fare
so well but her power-ful vault was able to capture the team’s first medal of the weekend with a second place fin-ish.
Next were the Level 3 athletes. All three girls had great perfor-mances.
Melissa MacAdam had a strong floor and vault to finish fourth on both of those events. MacAdam finished sev-enth in the all around.
Kyra Boulding had a solid bar routine bringing home a bronze medal while a huge handspring 1/1 twist on the vault gave her the silver medal.
Kyra finished fifth in a tight division where only less then 0.4 of a point was the differ-ence between fifth and second all around.
Tiffany Sharkie had a great competition becoming provincial champion both on the vault and the beam. Even with having two falls in the competi-tion, Sharkie was able to come home with the silver medal all around only .3 away from com-ing home with the title.
Aimee Clark was Campbell River’s last competitor and she did not disappoint.
Although she did not have her best per-
formance on one ofher strongest events(two falls on the beam)Clark was still ableto capture the silvermedal in the all aroundand take home anothersilver medal for herbar routine.

Gymnastics: Sharkie captures two titles
Campbell River’s male gymnasts put up strong results as well.
Nathan Chow, Quinn Kuschel-Ross and Hugo Lalumiere all went to Langley for the Pro-vincial Championships representing Camp-bell River Gymnastics Association (CRGA) .
Lalumiere competed in the level one cater-gory coming home with scores that earned him a silver all around.
Scoring over a 13 on an apparatus qualifies athletes in the level one division for a gold sta-tus on that apparatus. Lalumiere was able to attain that gold stan-dard on three of his apparatus, floor, vault and parallel bars while receiving a silver on the rings and high bar and one bronze status on the pommel horse.

When you live in a city like Campbell
River, it just seems natural to find some-thing to do in or on the water.
There are boats of every kind out there and, now that spring has arrived, you may have seen some long slim dragon boats in the estuary by the Tyee Spit.
If you’ve wondered what dragon boating is all about, you will soon have an oppor-tunity to find out. On Saturday, April 23 the BraveHearts Dragon Boat Team will be having an Open Boat and mem-bership drive at Dick Murphy Park. The club is accepting new members, male or female, 19 years of age or older. Both cancer survivors and sup-porter members are welcome to join.
Rain or shine, the boat will be leaving the dock between 1-1:30 p.m. after a mini-ceremony to “awaken the dragon”
so get there early to be part of the fun.
Dragon boating orig-inated in China over 2,000 years ago but was first introduced in Canada at Expo 86 in Vancouver.
In 1996, Dr. Don McKenzie, a sports medicine physician at the University of British Columbia, launched Abreast In A Boat, the first Cana-dian Breast Cancer Dragon Boat team. He wanted to test the myth that repetitive upper-body exercise in women treated for breast cancer encour-ages lymphedema, a condition common to many Breast Cancer survivors.
Dr. McKenzie believed that by fol-lowing a special exer-cise and training pro-gram, women could avoid lymphedema and enjoy active, full lives. His theory was proven correct as no new cases of lym-phedema occurred and none of the exist-ing cases became worse.
What started as one team of Breast Cancer survivors has now become a world wide phenomenon with there being over 200 similar teams.
Since then, Dr. McKenzie has con-ducted similar tests on survivors of other types of cancer and has concluded
that dragon boating can be beneficial for survivors of many types of cancer and can be enjoyed by people of any age.
The BraveHearts Dragon Boat Team is operated under the non-profit group, The North Island Dragon Boat Society, and is Canada’s first co-ed
dragon boat team whose membership is open to survivors of all types of cancer.
They are also accept-ing “supporter” mem-bers to join their boat crew. So, if you are a man or woman of adult age, are a cancer survivor, or would like to help offer your sup-port by paddling as
an associate member, the team would like to meet you.
If you are interested in joining this fun team, come to the Tyee Spit at noon on April 23 to find out more and be outfitted to board the dragon boat at 1 p.m.
It is suggested that you wear rubber-soled
shoes, dress for the weather, and wear comfortable quick-dry clothing (no jeans).

Caleb Haugen has been baking up a storm over the past month in an effort to help a sick classmate.
Just six years old, Haugen began bak-ing, freezing and sell-
ing cookies on March 11 to friends in the community through garage sales and spe-cial orders.
“He has even received orders from grandpar-ents and aunts and uncles in Quebec and has express-posted their cookies to them,”
says Micheline Hanson with Ecole Mer et Mon-tagne where Haugen attends school.
The Grade 1 student is raising money to help his friend Lola Audet, 6, who is bat-tling cancer at BC Children’s Hospital in Vancouver.
The french-language school has held sev-eral fundraisers since Audet was diagnosed with leukemia last September to help ease the financial burden living away from home has created for Audet’s family of four. Not

only that, Audet will be on several different medications once she has been released from hospital and will have to make follow-up trips to Vancouver for years to ensure she remains healthy. In the school’s most recent fundraiser, Audet’s teacher Kris-tiane Sormany Albert promises to cut her hair for the first time in 29 years.
Albert will cut about eight to nine inches of her long, curly locks off
once the school man-ages to raise $2,000. So far, the school sits at $1,750.
Haugen has raised $85 of that total through the sale of eight dozen cookies.
Albert says she hopes to have raised enough money to have her hair cut by the end of April but if not, she will shed her locks at the end of the school year (June) and donate the hair to an organization that makes wigs for cancer patients.

When parenting roles reverse from being a child to caring for an aging parent many strong emotions and stresses come to the surface.
Your involvement may be gradual or come suddenly but eventually there are many tough decisions that need to be made as parents enter their final years.
The upcoming work-shop, Care for Aging Parents, on Saturday may help you answer some of your questions about the best way to help meet your aging parents’ needs.
Mary Cook, a regis-tered nurse case man-ager for Home and Community Care, will answer some of your questions such as: How can I make if safe for my parents to stay in their home? What equipment is available to make life easier for my parents? Is it time for my parent to move to a senior housing facility?
This ElderCollege workshop is available to anyone aged 50 plus at a cost of $10. You can register in person at North Island College or online at www.nic.bc.ca/eldercollege.

Your Drivers License Isn’t Yours
Regardless of the fact that I paid $75 to renew my driver’s license, it isn’t mine. In fact, it states on the back of the license that “This card remains the property of the issuing agency and must be surrendered upon request.” If that request is made or the law requires its return there is no refund of fees and you must give it back. There are three circumstances where ICBC may request that the license be returned to them. The fi rst is where a person owes a motor vehicle related debt to ICBC, was dishonest in supplying information to obtain the license or owes certain fi nes or monetary penalties to the Government of B.C. This situation will result in the cancellation of the license and a demand for its return. The second is where a person cannot fi nd their driver’s license and has obtained a duplicate copy of the original license. If the original is subsequently found, the original must be returned to ICBC immediately. Once found, it is also an offence to use the original license in place of the duplicate. Finally, when a driver is prohibited or suspended from driving, they must immediately surrender the license when notifi ed of the prohibition or suspension. In all cases, failing to surrender the license is an offence. A person found in possession of a license that was not surrendered as required faces a traffi c ticket with a ticketed amount of $109. The author is a retired constable with many years of traffi c enforcement experience. To comment or learn more, please visit www.drivesmartbc.ca.

DISC ISLANDS QUADRA
Vancouver Island’s Serious Coffee raised $4500 for the Queen Alexandra Foundation for Children to help build Jeneece Place.
The total was raised from a combination of donations collected at each cafe and two dollars from each sale of Jeneece’s Dream Roast, an organic cof-fee, custom roasted for this important cause.
Each one of the 26 locally-owned and operated Serious Coffee locations that are only to be found
on Vancouver Island competed against one another to raise the most funds.
The top fundraiser, Serious Coffee at the North Nanaimo Co-op near Pipers Lagoon, presented the cheque to charity on March 31, 2011. Chris Sihota, Manager of the win-ning Serious Coffee location, states, “We sincerely thank our staff for their hard work and our custom-ers for their support in our effort to help make Jeneece’s dream
a reality.”Honorable com-
petition mentions include the Campbell River Serious Cof-fee, who took a close second place and Port Alberni, who not far behind, captured third place. Clay Edghill, Owner and Manager of the Port Alberni location, deserves an honourable mention.
He shaved off his mustache in an effort to raise more money for this cause.
At the time of this release, the Jeneece
Place construction site excavation is in progress, and a ground-breaking cer-emony is expected to take place in the near future.

Coastal Black Estate Winery is a family
owned and operated winery on Vancouver Island.
It opened its doors late last summer and has seen tremendous success with their fruit wines.
With over 800 acres at the base of Mt. Washington, and 80 acres of blackberries they are the largest cultivated blackberry farm in Canada.
Coastal Black Estate Winery is also the home to nine different wines.
Recently, the success of this local winery has gone International by winning a gold medal for their Black-berry Dessert Wine, two silver awards for the Blackberry Table Wine and Spiced Mead and rounding off the awards with a bronze for their Raspberry Dessert in the well known Finger Lakes
International Wine Competition.
This prestigious competition had over 3,300 entries from 18 different countries and was a testament to all the hard work that goes into cultivating these award-winning wines.
“Coastal Black Estate Winery is proud of these awards, not only because they were up against some hard competi-tion but because they have a true love for great fruit wines and these awards are a symbol of the hard work and passion we put into making them,” said partner and wine maker, Abel O’Brennan.
Coastal Black wines are currently being sold in more than 30 private liquor stores on Vancouver Island.
“Locals love to sup-port and purchase from local companies and we are having a
hard time keeping up with the demand,” said Paula Bohmer, Oyster River Liquor Store. “
Customers love these wines so much they are coming back and purchasing them as gifts for family and friends,”
You can also visit Coastal Black Estate Winery and purchase any one of their wines, book a wine tour to see how these award winning wines are produced and enjoy a sample, or book their beautiful location for private events.
About Coast Black Estate Winery
Previously a family dairy farm in 2010 the family decided it was time for a change, and when it came right down to it they simply prefer wine over milk.
They are now a bud-ding fruit winery, situ-ated on just over 800
acres, nestled at the base of Mount Wash-ington, on the out-skirts of the Comox Valley.
The family farm is made up of four gen-erations living and working together, to produce a product of the highest standard.
Because of their large family, and insis-tence on good quality, they do all possible work themselves.
Their blackberries are grown on site and spread over 80 acres, thus making them the largest cultivated blackberry farm in all of Canada.
They handle all pollinating in the vineyard with their own bees, which also provides a unique signature blackberry honey, as well as a fine selection of Meads.
They also have 20 acres of both blueber-ries and raspberries which adds to their fruit wine selection.

1X2cr hosp Campbell River’s Habitat
for Humanity is now offer-ing de-construction.
Do you have a deck, fence, house, barn or garage you plan to remove?
If it contains materials that can be salvaged, give them a call.
Habitat for Humanity would be happy to cost effec-tively retrieve, renew and recycle the materials from your site.
Contractors can call them to pick up left over Building materials. Half sheets, bun-dles or bags anything that
may be used for small proj-ects, renos or repairs, will be removed from the site.
By donating these mate-rials you will be helping to reduce the burden on our landfill while reducing your dump fees.
The renewable items will
be sold at the Campbell River ReStore.
Volunteers who would like to take part in this worth-while mission are needed. This is a great way to meet others committed to helping out the community.
Habitat for Humanity pro-
vides all the tools, lunches and good times; you will be helping raise money for Habitat for Humanity to build homes for low income families in our community.
