Kitimat workers have erected picket linesBy Cameron OrrTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
KTIMAT - Bargaining between the District of Kitimat and Unifor 2300 has seemingly broke down, with the District on one hand saying they’ve given a generous offer and the union on the other saying their issues aren’t being addressed.
The District of Kitimat gave a final offer to settle to the union last Thursday, Mayor Phil Ger-muth said through an open let-ter, which he said keeps the union to among the best-compensated workers in the province.
His letter also notes that while a brighter economy still lays on the horizon, the commu-nity simply cannot handle the burden of what they say would
be a 12 per cent property tax in-crease. “Many people, includ-ing seniors and others on fixed incomes, could be negatively af-fected,” he wrote.
Due to the strike, the River-lodge, the Tamitik Arena and the Kitimat Ice Rink, and the swim-ming pool are closed, while pick-eters are lined up outside the Public Works yard and at the entrances to City Centre Mall, where the District of Kitimat have their offices on the third floor. The landfill remains open but there is a union presence at its entrance as well.
The District on February 28 released a document outlining their offer to the union, which sees 2.5 per cent wage increases every year up to 2017.
They say they’ll also add
10 full time positions over two years in the Leisure Services De-partment, and a list of nine other promises, from better training to an agreement to enter into an ap-prenticeship program.
The District through their re-lease repeated that “the [DoK] has been bargaining in good faith, wishing to reach a settle-ment with Unifor 2300.
Oh but were it that simple.The union sees the District
of Kitimat’s public communica-tions as bargaining through the media and do not see their ac-tions as being done in good faith.
“When the District of Kiti-mat’s bargaining representatives, including Mayor and Council, resorted to the oldest trick in the bargaining and politics book, where they try and pull the wool
over the public’s eyes by distract-ing the public’s attention from all of the serious issues in the work place as a whole and try and make it all about money and add in a few Bandaid solutions, we were shocked and surprised,” read an open letter penned by Unifor 2300.
In particular the union was shocked that the direction from the District’s bargaining repre-sentatives came from Mayor and Council itself, calling it “childish communication and inflammato-ry statements.”
With what the union saw as an “abusive relationship” from the council to the employees, the union say they have decided to post information of their own to shed light on “what is really go-ing on.”

Prince Rupert RCMP want out of decrepit detachment By Martina PerryTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - The time has come: The City of Prince Rupert must construct a new RCMP detachment.
At the end of 2014, the City of Prince Rupert received the third and fi-nal letter from RCMP headquarters in the Lower Mainland stating Prince Rupert’s detach-ment is inadequate for policing operations.
An agreement be-tween the provincial government and B.C. municipalities states that communities are respon-sible for providing and maintaining office spac-es, heat, lighting and fa-cilities for RCMP that meet the security stan-dard of the force.
“The building is quite old and needs a lot of repairs. It’s a ca-pacity issues as well with regards to the num-ber of people we have in the building,” ex-plained Prince Rupert RCMP Inspector Wayne Maughan.
The city received the first letter declaring the detachment didn’t meet standards in 2011. Because there is also a
number of issues with Prince Rupert’s fire hall, the city began investi-gating the feasibility of constructing a joint-use facility for RCMP and firefighters in 2012, however the project stalled. “Basically it stalled because there wasn’t enough money and [it was difficult to meet all of the condi-tions RCMP require for a new building],” said Mayor Lee Brain.
With the arrival of the final letter, the City of Prince Rupert is no longer able to put off re-placing the more than 30-year-old detachment.
The city can either come up with a solution and construct the new RCMP facility on its terms or wait for RCMP to build it and send the city the bill, said Brain.
“We’re going to have to do something about it regardless; we don’t re-ally have a choice. We’d rather be proactive and figure out a solution as soon as possible,” he said.
“Basically where we’re at is we’re going to re-look at the whole thing and come up with a new plan. We’re going to work with the RCMP.
We hope to get some-thing lined up and then we’ll see what the next steps are from there.”
Exactly how the city will pay for the new fa-cility is unknown at this time. Last week, the city’s chief financial of-
ficer Corinne Bomb-en told council initial thoughts are for the city to obtain a loan for the project, given borrowing rates are low.
Brain said with the promise of LNG coming to the North Coast, the
City of Prince Rupert is more likely to obtain a loan and if LNG projects go through they could assist in paying it off.
Bomben noted the advent of major proj-ects could impact the scope of needs for the
new RCMP detachment, suggesting the city could look to proponents to offset the financial im-plications of that.
In order to alleviate the financial impact to taxpayers, Bomben said staff is exploring a rent-
al agreement with the RCMP to repay the capi-tal component of a new building. “Staff intend to engage the community with respect to this no-tification and begin nec-essary planning,” said Bomben.

Port Edward fire department seeks aid to buy equipmentBy Martina PerryTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PORT EDWARD - The Port Edward Volun-teer Fire and Rescue Department is calling out for donations to purchase new equipment.
Port Edward firefighters hope to raise $10,000 to update rescue equipment, turn-ing to North Coast residents, businesses and groups for donations.
Each year the Port Edward Volunteer Fire and Rescue Department responds to approxi-mately 35 calls, many of which are motor ve-hicle collisions on Highway 16.
“We have a dedicated team of volun-teers that commit countless hours to keep the roads in our community safe. Unfor-tunately, dated technology can sometimes slow our ability to get injured persons out of a confined vehicle or potentially put our members at risk on scene,” reads a letter signed by Shawn Pettitt, Port Edward’s fire chief.
Donations will help to purchase a ther-mal imaging camera, new air bottles, up-dated communications and other rescue equipment.
The equipment would improve Port Ed-
ward firefighters ability to assess scenes, and reduce the time it takes to get to an entrapped person and locate an ejected person.
Anyone interested in donating to the Port Edward Volunteer Fire and Rescue Depart-ment is encouraged to call 250-600-7262.

Last show of seasonSubmittedTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
KITIMAT - Kitimat Concert Associa-tion will end its 59th season on March 7 with the return of the one and only John Wort Hannam.
John was here for our 50th anni-versary season and those that saw his show will tell you it’s one not to miss.
In the 12 years since becoming a working musician, John has released � ve albums and captured a Juno nomi-nation for Best Traditional/Roots al-bum, a Canadian Folk Music Award for Album of the Year and seven grand and � rst place awards for his songwrit-ing.
His rootsy, melodic songs, matched with his narrative writing, laden with lyrical hooks, has taken him from his home in Alberta to his birthplace, the Isle of Jersey, UK, to appearances in festivals from Trafal-gar Square to the Smithsonian to Ker-rville, TX. John Wort Hannam in con-cert is a powerful singer with poignant lyrics to match.
Hannam is a keen observer of both people and place and takes delight in � nding the stories and culture that in-
habit the backroad communities so of-ten missed by those of us less obser-vant. Whether it be the idealistic story of Sointula on Malcolm Island, B.C., the wilds of Labrador, or the week-end life of Twin Butte, Alberta, Han-nam � nds the lyric that evokes a sense of wonder and delight in the landscape that is his experience
For � ve years John taught grade 9 language arts on the largest reserve in Canada – The Kainai Nation, part of the Blackfoot Confederacy. But in 1997 he heard a Loudon Wainwright III record and was hooked by the mu-sic and the stories. In 1998 he bought a guitar and learnt some chords. In 2002 he quit teaching and began to pursue the dream of being a working musi-cian.
John comes from a long line of people who make a living using their hands. His great-great grandfather drove horse and buggy for the village doctor. His great-grandfather was a stevedore, his grandfather, a farmer and his father still works as a master carpenter. John now carries on the tra-dition making his living writing songs and playing music.
Show is at 8 p.m.
BackgroundA class action has been certified that alleges that a Department of Fisheries and Oceans scheme to divert individual vessel quota (IVQ) representing 10% of the Total Allowable Catch to the Pacific Halibut Management Association (“PHMA”) for resale back to individual commercial halibut license holders was unlawful and seeks restitution on behalf of members of the Class and Subclass for additional amounts paid by them for the diverted IVQ.
The Class ActionA class action lawsuit, Burnell v. Canada (Attorney General) (British Columbia Supreme Court Action No. S077807) (the “Class Action”) was brought against the Attorney General of Canada (the “Defendant”) alleging that the conduct of the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans with respect to the fisheries management program it implemented through PHMA was unlawful and enriched the federal government unlawfully at the expense of the Class and Subclass members.
The Class Action was certified by the Court on February 18, 2014 (amended on June 13, 2014) on behalf of a Class, represented by Barry Jim Burnell, consisting of:All owners of fishing vessels with a Category L Commercial Halibut License to fish for halibut issued by the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans (“Licensed Vessels”) at any time between 2001 and 2006 inclusive who purchased quota from PHMA, except for the following:(i) the holder of license L-437;(ii) First Nations fishers holding Category FL
Commercial Halibut Fishing licenses; and,(iii) members of the subclass.
Individuals who meet this definition qualify as Class Members and are represented by the law firms of Camp Fiorante Matthews Mogerman and Ellis Business Lawyers (“Class Counsel”).
In addition, on June 13, 2014, the action was certified on behalf of a Subclass, represented by Lorne Nels David Iverson, consisting of:
All owners of fishing vessels with a Category L Commercial Halibut License to fish for halibut issued by the Minster of Fisheries and Oceans (“Licensed Vessels”) between 2001 and 2006 inclusive (the “Material Time”) for which quota was purchased from PHMA and:(a) who at any time during the Material Time:
i. were directors of PHMA; or,ii. were corporations in which a PHMA director
owned more than 50% of the shares; or(b) who claim that they were in a partnership with a
PHMA director in relation to a Licensed Vessel and the purchase of quota from PHMA at any time during the Material Time.
Individuals who meet this definition qualify as Subclass Members and are represented by the law firm of Underhill, Boies Parker (“Subclass Counsel”).
The claims of the representative plaintiffs (Barry Burnell and Lorne Iverson) will be used to determine the legal responsibility of the Defendant to compensate the Class and Subclass members for the alleged losses suffered.
Judgment on the common issues for the Class and Subclass whether favourable or not will bind all Class Members and Subclass Members who do not opt out
of the proceeding. You will be bound by the result of the Class Action whether the lawsuit is successful or unsuccessful and will not be able to start or pursue your own legal claim against the Defendant. The common issues can be found atwww.cfmlawyers.ca/active-litigation/commercial-halibut-fishing/or by request from Class Counsel or Subclass Counsel.
If the Class Action is successful in obtaining recovery from the Defendant on behalf of the Class Members and Subclass Members, then they will be entitled to share in the recovery. If you opt out of the Class Action, you do not have this right.
Class Members or Subclass Members who opt out of the Class Action may start their own lawsuits, but will not be able to claim any recovery in this Class Action whether through judgment or settlement.

PRINCE RUPERT - The 24th Annual Children’s Festival is being put on by Prince Rupert Special Events this Saturday.
Between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. on March 7, kids and their families can partake in more than 20 fun activities at the Jim Ciccone Civic Centre.
“There’s a lot of ac-tivities to squeeze into � ve hours,” said Bev Killbery of the Prince Rupert Special Events Society.
The Vancouver
Aquarium will be pre-senting its “Whale Won-ders” learning centre at the event, which will include a giant Orca puzzle, a whale-themed photo booth and match-the-� n game.
Lazer Fish laser tag will be returning, a fa-vourite at previous Chil-dren’s Fest events. This year more people will have an opportunity to play, as Lazer Fish has increased its participant capacity in rounds of la-ser tag.
There will be a vari-ety of fun activities for children to enjoy, such
as � sh pond, hammer and nails, a craft booth, glitter swirl painting, a reading corner and a new joggling station.
Additionally, Angry Birds and a number of other popular games are back this year.
An array of Prince Rupert groups and busi-nesses are sponsoring the activities and games, with many incorporating educational components to them.
“That’s the thing about Children’s Fest, it’s education-al while having a fun time learning it,” said
Killbery. Yummy snacks
like hot dogs, popcorn, snow cones, slush-ies and cotton can-dy will be on hand, as
well as some healthier options.
Admission for the 24th Annual Children’s Festival will be by dona-tion for all ages.

BULLETIN BOARD
Party bus licensing tightened upBy Tom FletcherTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
VICTORIA - Relatives of a teenage girl who died af-ter taking drugs on a “par-ty bus” applauded changes made Thursday to tighten li-censing regulations for lim-ousine operators.
Transportation Minis-ter Todd Stone announced an overhaul of limousine licensing that will require each limousine or bus with perimeter seating to go through its own inspection and hold a licence. This re-places a “general authoriza-tion” limousine licence that allowed party bus operators to work anywhere in B.C. and add vehicles to their fleet at any time.
Stone said strict licens-ing and display of a spe-cial plate will allow police to know where party buses are operating so they can be checked. The changes are
to take effect by May, be-fore high school graduation events that are a mainstay of the party bus business.
Danielle Raymond and her mother Julie attended the announcement, calling it part of the reforms they have sought since Dani-elle’s sister Shannon died in July 2008 after drinking and then boarding a party bus where she took the street drug ecstasy.
Shannon’s death was the first in a series of trage-dies with party buses, which have expanded to 4,000 ve-hicles in B.C. Danielle said her own research showed companies advertising open bars on board.
“Basically their whole business operates around facilitating the minors who use them to get hammered, for lack of a better term,” she said.
In February 2013, 16-year-old Ernest Azoad-
am died on a party bus in Surrey. In November of that year, a 17-year-old girl from Abbotsford was dumped at a truck stop an assaulted af-ter a trip on a party bus.
NDP transportation crit-ic George Heyman echoed the Raymonds’ suggestion to consider requiring chap-erones on party buses to make sure under-age drink-ing or drug use don’t oc-cur. That’s part of pending legislation in Washington state, where party buses are allowed to serve alcohol to those old enough to drink.
Heyman said the gov-ernment should also require safe drop-off locations for the buses, which now drop off passengers at bars and then pick them up later to go to another bar.
“One of the roles of the chaperones would be to en-sure that no drinking takes place on party buses, peri-od,” he said.

TERRACE - From the left, Jenny Brown and Bob Erb are being thanked with a gift by Ter-race Hospice Society coordinator Penny Dobbin and society chair Diana Wood for making a $10,000 contribution. The money will go to a speci� c account as the society gears up for an eventual stand alone hospice facility.
College receives gov’t moneySMITHERS - The provincial government is providing ongo-ing support for the BC Centre of Training Excellence in Min-ing through one-time funding of $125,000.
The B.C. Centre of Training Excellence in Mining is based at Northwest Community College. The centre works with the min-ing and mineral industries and public post-secondary institutions throughout the province to ensure students receive targeted training that will give them marketable in-demand skills for these industries.
The activities of the BC Cen-tre of Training Excellence in Min-ing complement the B.C.’s Skills
for Jobs Blueprint: Re-Engi-neering Education and Training, which is aligning education and training with in-demand occupa-tions that are critical to the mining sector and other industries.
The B.C. Centre of Train-ing Excellence in Mining was announced November 2012 and launched May 23, 2013, to help provide an improved training ex-perience for students at partner in-stitutions. Additional funds have been provided to public post-sec-ondary partners of the centre for related programming.
B.C. Centre of Training Ex-cellence in Mining advisory council chair Dave Lefebure said
the grant is appreciated. “Our partners from the min-
ing industry, post-secondary sec-tor, Aboriginal communities and regions across the province ap-preciate the Ministry of Advanced Education’s leadership in estab-lishing the B.C. Centre of Train-ing Excellence in Mining and their continued support for our projects,” he said.
This new funding allows the Centre of Training Excellence in Mining, supported by its host in-stitution Northwest Community College, to build on the successes to date and continue to support innovative training solutions for the mining industry.”

Prince Rupert RCMP taking aim at illegal highway-side firing rangeBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - Prince Ru-pert RCMP are seeking to put an end to the use of an unof� cial and unlawful � ring range located less than 250 metres away from High-way 16.
The area, accessed through a trail located 1.7 kilometres away east of the Port Edward turnoff, is covered in shotgun shells and dis-carded items riddled with bullet holes. It even has a stand in one of the nearby trees that can be used for shooting, but Const. Matt Er-icson of the RCMP said anyone discharging a � rearm there is do-ing so illegally.
“People are using high-power ri� es out here, as well as shotguns
and pistols, and, with the highway very close, if any of those rounds were to stray or somebody was shooting in an un-safe direction there is a real concern that one of those rounds could make it to the highway and affect a passing motorist,” said Eric-son.
“In recent days, members of the de-tachment have been seeing an in� ux of activity out here, more people com-ing out to use this area as a shoot-ing range ... my understanding is people in the community have
been using this for many, many years. With the increased activity
and more people com-ing out here, the risk starts to increase.”
The B.C. Wild-life Act states that � re-arms cannot be dis-charged within 400 metres of Highway 16. Given the closeness to the highway, Ericson said RCMP are asking the public to be extra vigelent in the area.
“We’re asking members of the pub-lic to give us a call in the event that they do
hear shots out here and we will come and investigate,” said Const. Ericson.
“One of those rounds could make it to the highway.”

Early budget projects a shortfallBy Martina PerryTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - The City of Prince Rupert’s chief financial officer Corinne Bomben presented a report on preliminary estimates for the 2015 budget, a report that showed council will once again need to cover a projected shortfall.
When the city’s expected reve-nues and expenditures are taken into consideration, the city is project-ing a $220,000 shortfall in the 2015 budget. Bomben said the anticipated shortfall is caused by expected hikes in energy costs, as well as contrac-tual wage and benefit increases that will cost an additional $400,000 in 2015.
Bomben said another contribut-ing factor to the shortfall is the port property tax rate cap enacted by the provincial government. Because of the legislation, the city can only charge major industrial property owners certain mill rates on federal port land.
“Part of the reason for the disparity in funding is the fact that everyone else’s assessments have gone up, yet industry evaluations in the absence of invest-ment depreciate, they go down yearly. The only way to keep the industrial tax base flat is to have new in-vestment every year,” Bomben explained.
Projections for 2015 show the city will receive approximately $585,000 in taxes from major indus-tries, in contrast to the $712,000 it collected in 2011.
“The residential burden has increased from $4.7 million to $6.6 million in 10 years. The business bur-den has increased from $3.2 million to $4.3 million. Major industrial tax revenue has declined from $4.5 million to $2.8 million. There were two new indus-tries and an expansion of the coal terminal in this timeframe,” Bomben said.
“The result to the rest of the tax classes is that they take up the share of the burden. This translates into higher mill rates for residential, business and the
light industrial classes. This makes it less affordable to open a small-to-medium sized business venture. Ultimately, the effects to Prince Rupert is that this provincial-international competitiveness scheme sti-fles the competitiveness of entrepreneurs wishing to locate in Prince Rupert.”
Based on the first draft of the 2015 BC Assess-ment property assessment roll, preliminary esti-
mates show the city will require a mill rate increase of 1.9 per cent to the adjusted mill rate.
While assessments have in-creased, the city must adjust the mill rate in order to achieve the same lev-el of taxation revenue as in 2014, which was $14,510,000.
The proposed 2015 municipal mill rate for Prince Rupert residen-tial property owners is 7.37660 com-pared to 8.42627 in 2014, where-as small to medium-sized business
owners would have a mill rate of 25.77710 this year, in contrast to 27.85141 last year.
Based on this rate, a homeowner with an average assessed property value of $229,000 will pay $1,689 in taxes in 2015, up $37 from 2014 when the aver-age assessed value of a home was $196,000 that cost $1,652 in taxes.
Bomben noted BC Assessment will release the revised roll on March 31, with mill rates being ad-justed to reflect any changes.
Furthermore, Bomben’s report noted that in 2015 all capital purchases and works will be funded through grants, reserves or operating surplus carried forward from 2014.
Additionally, CityWest has informed the city it expects to pay the $400,000 dividend this year, the same amount as 2014.
The City of Prince Rupert will host two public consultation meetings on the 2015 budget, the first on Monday, March 9 at the Lester Centre of the Arts at 7 p.m. and the second on Monday, March 23 at 7 p.m. in City Hall council chambers.
“The business burden has increased from $3.2 million to $4.3 million.”

Hunters fail to sway the gov’tBy Tom FletcherTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
VICTORIA – Hun-dreds of hunters, some wearing camouflage and blowing duck calls, gathered at the B.C. leg-islature March 2 to pro-test the share of big-gam hunting permits set aside for guide-outfitters and their out-of-province cli-ents. About 300 hunters and supporters attended the rally, bringing peti-tions with thousands of names to present in the legislature. The largest petition called for a lim-it of 10 per cent share of moose and elk allocated for non-resident hunt-ers, and 15 per cent for mountain goats and griz-zly bears, prized by tro-phy hunters.
It was the latest of a series of protests that be-gan in December when the government an-nounced an increase of limited-entry hunting opportunities for guide-outfitters.
Sean Richardson, president of the Oceo-la Fish and Game Club in the Okanagan, said with the resurgence of hunting popularity in B.C., the government is moving in the wrong direction by increasing commercialization of wildlife harvesting.
“We need to stop managing a diminish-ing resource through so-cial management, and we need to start working towards making more wildlife,” Richardson said.
Forests Minister
Steve Thomson said he understands the prin-ciple behind the ongo-ing protest, but the lat-est allocation decision was made after 10 years of discussions with resi-dent hunters and guide-outfitters, and he is not prepared to change it again. When the plan was announced in De-cember, the government estimated that it rep-resented a shift of 168 animals in limited-entry hunt areas from resident hunters to guide outfit-
ters. After resident hunt-ers and the B.C. Wild-life Federation objected, Forests Minister Steve Thomson announced in February that is be-ing adjusted to a shift of about 60 animals to guide-outfitters. But the protests have continued.
B.C. hunters are concerned that the share reserved for guide-out-fitters is higher than anywhere else in North America. Under the lat-est policy for limited-en-try hunts, that share is 20
per cent for elk, 20 or 25 per cent for moose de-pending on the restrict-ed region, 35 per cent for mountain goat, and 40 per cent for grizzly bears.
Open season ar-eas for moose and other animals remain in the southern Interior and northeast, where any-one can buy a licence and tag. Abundant spe-cies such as mule deer, whitetail deer and black bear have no hunting quotas.

Greg Rensmaag and his son Connor travelled from Maple Ridge to Victoria to join a hunter rally at the B.C. legislature March 2.
Set that clock ahead!TERRACE - It’s time this weekend to follow that old adage – spring forward, fall back.
And that means setting clocks ahead by one hour, officially at 2 a.m. Sunday, March 8.
The purpose of daylight saving time, is to save energy by moving an additional hour of daylight from the
morning to the evening. Numerous studies have shown that moving clocks forward actually does save energy.
It’s said that during the First World War Germany and its allies were the first to adopt daylight saving time as a way to conserve energy for the war ef-fort. Britain, other countries in Europe, Canada and the US followed.

Such...is Life. After 91 years of trials and tribulations Willy said his last goodbyes to the world on February 22, 2015 at Mills Memorial Hospital in Terrace, BC.
After his family immigrated from Germany to Canada in 1954 the Schneider family planted their roots in Terrace. Willy worked for SunLife for the next 40 years, introducing his son-in-law Lyle Harvey to the � nancial business. Over the next 50 years in Terrace, Willy was a proud member of the Terrace Rotary Club (25 years), Railroad Club, Golf Course, and legion as well as a board member of the Terrace Public Library. At 84, Willy penned his autobiography, “Such...is Life” and shortly after the publication of his book he lost his beloved wife Gisela. During the next seven years Willy lived his life to the fullest which included trips to Germany and Russia, the wedding of his youngest granddaughter Sabrena (Brent), a 60/90 Birthday celebration for his daughter Barb and himself at the Terrace Golf Course and the birth of his great-grandson Parker from his eldest granddaughter Jill (Terry).
Willy could be seen around town on a daily basis walking his beloved dog Cappie, working out at the gym (bench pressing 95 lbs x 5), grocery shopping, men’s night dinner at the golf course or having a cocktail at some of his favourite local watering holes.
In keeping with Willy’s wishes, the family has scattered his ashes in a private ceremony. He is remembered and survived by his daughter Barb Harvey
(Lyle), granddaughter Jill Schick (Terry) and great-grandson Parker, and granddaughter Sabrena Dawe (Brent). A Celebration of Life will be held on May 18, 2015 at the Terrace Golf Course. In lieu of � owers, donations can
be made to the Terrace Public Library or the Heart & Stroke Foundation.

Kings of the CIHL look to claim CoyTERRACE - The Terrace River Kings are the 2015 Central Inte-rior Hockey League champions – and the team is now focussed on winning the Coy Cup at the end of March.
After a 3-2 defeat in front of a packed house at the Cariboo Me-morial Recreation Complex Satur-day in Williams Lake – game two of the best of three series against de-fending CIHL champions the Wil-liams Lake Stampeders – Terrace rallied back to capture a 4-3 over-time win in a barn burner Sunday, claiming the CIHL playoff title.
Terrace claimed game one of the se-ries at home Feb. 14.
River Kings president Ray Hal-lock said what helped the team stand out was team spirit.
“This team from the coach-es down to the newest rookie all worked together as a team. There was great cameraderie in the dress-ing room and on the ice. This was not a team of superstars but rather a team where everybody made the maximum effort.”
Chapen Leblond and Steve Cul-lis gave the River Kings a 2-0 lead after one period of play, before Wil-
liams Lake’s Jassi Sangha put the Stamps on the board six-and-a-half minutes into the second frame.
Leblond added his second of the contest four minutes later, be-fore Stampeders’ captain Aaron Zurak cut the Williams Lake de� cit to 3-2 heading into the third.
There, Williams Lake defence-man Dan Cohen � red a blast from just outside the left-wing faceoff circle to fool River Kings’ netmind-er Patrick Leal to send the contest to overtime.
A disallowed Terrace goal pro-vided some controversy later in the
frame, before sudden death over-time saw Tristan Murray bang one past Stampeders’ goaltender Jus-tin Foote near the � ve-minute mark during a scramble in front of the net to seal the deal. Adding to the dra-ma, prior to the game-winning goal, Stampeder Dylan Richardson came up short on a penalty shot attempt.
The River Kings are now set on winning the Coy Cup – to be held this year in Fort Nelson.
“We do expect to win it,” said Hallock. “And so far it looks like a full squad to Fort Nelson.”
He hopes that winning the Coy
Cup might help build the River Kings fanbase. “Our fans in Terrace have been very supportive of the team,” he said, noting the team still had a hard time � lling the stands this year.
And they might see themselves up against the Stamps once again. The Stampeders are trying to � gure out the logistics of the possibility of playing a challenge game with the Powell River Regals to decide who will attend this year’s Coy Cup in Fort Nelson.

Charles Hays Rainmakers win zones, ready for provincials By Kevin Campbell THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - Everyone knows about Justin McChesney.
It’s a little hard for the six-foot-ten Prince Rupert basketball star to keep under the radar in a town this crazed about its court heroes.
The B.C. provincial Under-17 player had been sidelined for the majority of the season with an an-
kle injury and played sparingly in the games he was needed in. The Charles Hays senior boys basket-ball team’s followers couldn’t really get a good glimpse of what the big man could do in his Grade 11 year.
That is, not until the ‘AAA’ Northwest zones championship last weekend where the forward was absolutely dynamite against the Smithers Secondary Gryphons in an 84-71 victory that gave Charles
Hays its fourth-straight senior boys Northwest zone championship.
“I thought he played unreal to-day,” said Rainmakers head coach Mel Bishop.
With his injury � rmly a thing of the past, McChesney stole the show on Saturday afternoon, facing off against the Gryphons and taking the tournament MVP honour.
Scoring 28 points to pace his team and playing on the seniors
squad for the second year in a row, McChesney was � nally able to let loose and show the zone why he’s considered one of the most danger-ous and versatile players in the en-tire province.
Positioned deep in the paint on the defensive side of the ball, no Gryphon wanted to even go near the towering � gure while they were on the attack. This forced the visit-ing team to try and sink some mid-
range jump shots and perimeter looks, but luckily for the Rainmak-ers star McChesney, his supporting cast this year is just as good.
The fourth-seeded Rainmak-ers head to B.C. High School Boys 3A Basketball Championships from March 11 – 14 in Langley with their � rst game at 1:45 p.m. next Wednesday.

Mount Elizabeth rink finally does it By Richard MasonTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
KITIMAT - In 1979, the � rst year girls were included, the Mount Eliz-abeth Girls Curling Team lead by Karina Dzuiba won the BC High School Girls Curling Champion-ship.
There have been close calls over the past 37 years.
Finally the Mount Elizabeth Girls team consisting of Taylor Re-ese-Hansen, Micaela Stevenson, Leah Anthony, Emma Baker, Jor-dan Zanella and Coach Laurel De-Goeij have ended the long drought.
The team competed in Crest-on, February 19-21 at the 2014-15 championships � nishing with a six win and one loss record to win the schools � rst provincial curling title in 36 years.
The championship didn’t start off well as the team quickly fell be-hind 4-0 in the � rst end and down 5 after the second end against Selkirk Secondary from Kimberley. The team got their game going in the third end and fought hard the rest of the way only to lose by a score of 7 to 6.
In their second game the team met Centennial from Coquitlam scoring immediately on route to a 8
to 2 victory. The third game found them
playing arch rivals College Heights of Prince George. These two teams met the last two years with College Heights coming out on top in two hard fought and highly entertaining games. This time College Heights lead by one going into the � nal end and Mount Elizabeth had last rock. College Heights had to have a blank or steal to win. The Mount Eliza-beth team scored � ve and won 7 - 3.
Their fourth game was against Elgin Park Secondary from South Surrey. Mount Elizabeth prevailed winning 5 to 4. At this point four teams had a 3 - 1 game record. Their next two opponents Ballenas from Parksville and Salmon Arm were in that group.
The Ballenas game ended up being no contest. Mount Elizabeth scored often and in bunches going away with a 12 - 3 win.
Going into the � nal game of Friday Salmon Arm and Mount Elizabeth were tied in the lead with 4 - 1 records. In another tight hard fought game Salmon Arm held a one point lead at the break. Mount Elizabeth tied the game in the � fth and then stole three points in the sixth end to take the lead for good. The teams traded single points in
the 7th and 8th ends with Mount Elizabeth � nishing with a 6-3 vic-tory.
Now they led the standings with a record of � ve wins and one loss only one game remained.
Their � nal game on Saturday was against St. Thomas More Sec-ondary of Burnaby. At this point St. Thomas More was in last place. The girls knew that they had to take this game seriously as a loss would
drop them into a three-way tie caus-ing tie breakers and a chance of a � nish as low as third. Coming out � ying, scoring early and in every end the girls won 10-0 in six ends and therefore becoming the 2014-15 BC High School Girls Provincial Curling Champions.
On a � tting note the Smithers Secondary boys team also came in � rst for our zone.
This is the only time that Zone
8 encompassing the Paci� c North West has won both the boys and the girls in the same year.
Coach Laurel DeGoeij who has been with the girls the last three years was extremely proud of how the girls handled themselves on and off the ice, and how the young ambassadors not only represented Mount Elizabeth but also our com-munity of Kitimat and their club the Hirsh Creek Golf and Winter Club.

WHY LNG IN B.C.?
The BC LNG Alliance is the voice of British Columbia’s new LNG export industry. Our mission is to foster the growth of a safe, environmentally responsible and globally competitive LNG industry in British Columbia and Canada.
A SPECIAL SERIES ON LIQUEFIED NATURAL GAS
Connect with us: bclnga.ca I 778.370.1392 I @bclnga I BC LNG Alliance in
BRITISH COLUMBIA has far more natural gas
than we use
(( ((
WE’VE GOT NATURAL GAS...
an estimated
2,000 trillion cubic feet
in Northeast B.C.
We have enough to supply local needs
and help meet global demand
In fact, enough to supply LNG export operations and domestic needs for 150 years, so it makes
sense to sell some of it
Natural gas has been produced safely in B.C. for more than 60 years. It is as much a part of our resource wealth as forestry and fishing. And like forestry and fishing, the
natural gas sector provides thousands of stable, well-paid jobs for British Columbians who work for gas producers in the Northeast and for suppliers and service providers throughout the province.
The industry also generates tax revenue to help pay for social services and infrastructure like salaries for nurses and teachers, and new roads, schools and hospitals. But unlike
forestry and fishing, which are now mature industries, natural gas is entering what the International Energy Agency has described as The Golden Age of Gas. Demand is rising rapidly and B.C. is ideally positioned to meet some of it.
Exporting B.C.’s natural gas is nothing new; it was first transported via Vancouver to the U.S. in 1957 and the U.S. has remained our main market ever since. But with the U.S. producing more of its own gas it now makes sense to sell our surplus overseas where there’s a demand. The only difference is that the gas must be converted into a liquid so it can be shipped.
That’s why B.C. is developing a new industry to produce LNG.
China alone expects to use 17.5 trillion cubic feet
of natural gas a year by 2040 – three times more than in 2012
NEW MARKETS FOR OUR NATURAL GAS...

North Coast MLA seeks answers to Highway of Tears tourBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - North Coast MLA Jen-nifer Rice is looking for answers regarding a trip along Highway 16 the Ministry of Trans-portation made last summer, a trip she says of� cials have not been able to produce evi-dence of.
Rice submitted a Freedom of Information (FOI) request to ascertain the approximately “80 organizations, local governments, First Nations and others” Transportation Minister Todd Stone told CBC in December were in-cluded as part of consultations along High-way 16, but was told an extension was needed as the notes were handwritten and needed to be transcribed. But on Feb. 17, Rice was told there were no records related to her enquiry and the matter was now closed.
“We know that there are records because the ministry asked for an extension to our FOI request. They said they needed an extension because the records were hand-written and needed to be transcribed. Can the Minister of Citizen Services explain what happened to those hand-written records and why they are being hidden from the public?” she said dur-
ing question period on Feb. 24.“The people of Northern British Colum-
bia deserve to know why the B.C. Liberal government is hiding the results of any con-sultations that were had. We don’t know how many of these meetings actually took place, and whether the minister is misrepresenting what people said. Northwest communities have heard enough excuses, it’s time for action to bring safe transportation options along the Highway of Tears,” she added after leaving the chambers.
But the response came not from Minis-ter of Citizen Services Amrik Virk, but from Stone himself.
“All Freedom of Information requests that come into the government are handled by professionals in the civil service, but the fun-damental issue is that this government is tak-ing action to ensure that safety along High-way 16 is improved and that there are safer transportation options available,” he said, adding dialogue with groups along the high-way is continuing.
“There is an appeals process through the of� ce of the privacy commissioner, if the members don’t feel they have been provided the information they requested then that is a
process they should engage.”However, following an enquiry from the
Northern View, the Ministry of Transporta-tion sent along a list of meeting locations that included 13 communities spanning from Prince Rupert in the west to McBride in the east.
“The meetings were held to hear direct-ly from community leaders about what trans-portation services currently exist to support � nding affordable, practical and sustainable transportation solutions. Through the meet-ings, we heard about transportation challeng-es that residents face every day,” said a minis-try spokesperson.
As well as a lack of records, Rice took issue with statements made during the inter-view in which Stone said he had “heard from First Nations and other local government” that a shuttlebus is “probably not practical”.
“The Minister of Transportation told pub-lic that the people along the Highway 16 cor-ridor that people didn’t want safer, affordable transportation, he said that nobody thought it was practical, yet that is not what people have told me. People up and down the highway all want the same thing, safe, affordable trans-portation. Maybe that is why these records are
being hidden,” Rice said in the Legislature. However, the ministry spokesperson said
the need for varying efforts to improve safety was a common theme during the tour.
“It was evident that because of the sig-ni� cant distance between communities along Highway 16, a ‘one size � ts all’ approach wasn’t feasible. Instead, we’re focusing on � nding practical solutions to help residents living along the corridor,” said the spokesper-son.
