Gov’t promises overpass aidBy JOSH MASSEY

A SECOND vehicle overpass con-necting the two sections of the city divided by CN tracks is still on Ter-race city council’s wish list but it’s now concentrating on more imme-diate measures to improve the flow over the existing Sande Overpass which has become a bottleneck.

Those measures, including a vehicle roundabout and new traffic signals, were discussed by council

members in a meeting last week with provincial transportation min-ister Todd Stone.

“With respect to the Sande Over-pass, my understanding is that local staff are working on some options,” said Stone. “We were just talking earlier today about how that could be a roundabout, a new traffic signal ... There is a number of configura-tions that could potentially work there and you have my commitment that we will bring these options for-

ward.”A vehicle roundabout features

vehicles entering from and exiting to road connections via a large cir-cle without the need for stop signs.

The city has long lobbied for a second overpass, a situation now considered more important than ever given the increase in vehicle traffic because of existing economic development and the prospect of more people and more traffic should liquefied natural gas plant plans

ever solidify in the region.CN at one time had committed

itself to helping with a second over-pass, as had the federal government, and the city went so far as to com-mission a traffic study outlining op-tions, but those plans were shelved.

Councillor Lynne Christiansen said a plan for a pedestrian overpass should be included. “As a region, the transportation corridor, the [the Sande Overpass] is the bottleneck before you get to the coast. We have

to do something to separate foot traffic, local vehicles, and truck traf-fic,” she told Stone.

Councillor Bruce Bidgood added afterwards that part of its discussion includes a possible bypass for larger vehicles.

“There has been a switch in the conversation,” said Bidgood. “There is talk of improving the cur-rent overpass while still working on future plans for a second one.”

THE TERRACE Standard begins its Terrace municipal election coverage with profiles of council candidates on Pages A14, A5, A17 and A19.

More profiles of council candidates as well as mayoral candidates will be published Oct. 29 and Nov. 5.

And Terrace voters will have a chance to listen to and question coun-cil and mayoral hopefuls at a forum

being held Nov. 5 beginning at 7 p.m. at the REM Lee Theatre.

The forum is being hosted by the Terrace and District Chamber of Com-merce and The Terrace Standard with the assistance of Terrace Toastmas-ters, the Skeena Valley Rotary Club, the BC Northern Real Estate Board, the REM Lee Theatre, CFNR, Bell Media and CityWest Cable 10.

Election coverage begins

Venue change ideafails to go throughA REQUEST by a Kitimat-Stikine regional district director to hold its board meeting this Friday in a differ-ent location then normal has fallen through.

Diana Penner, who represents the rural area north of Terrace and then south to Lakelse Lake and beyond, expects a large number of people to show up to oppose the board’s passing of a bylaw setting up a garbage and recycling pick up program carrying a mandatory annual fee of $200.

“If you want to yell about some-thing you’re passionate about, go ahead. It’s supposed to be a free coun-try,” said Penner.

The board room at the regional dis-trict office on Lazelle Ave. isn’t big enough for a large audience so Penner suggested the move.

The same bylaw was to have been voted upon at the board’s Septem-ber meeting and that prospect drew enough people that an overflow crowd had to gather outside of the regional district’s board room.

But the provincial environment minister had yet to sign off on the bylaw’s provisions, meaning it lan-guished until it was approved, setting the stage for this Friday’s expected passage.

Penner based her request for a move on a petition opposing the by-law which now has more than 700 signatures.

“To let the elected regional district board know that we are dissatisfied with their behaviour to the implemen-tation of the bylaw, we all need to at-tend this meeting,” states a portion of the petition.

Late last week, Penner said her at-tempts at a move, and even for a dif-ferent day for the by-law vote, were dashed.

Some directors said they could not attend on different day, she added.

“No, it looks like all will proceed as normal. It has all fallen on the shoulders of the chair, and seems to have stopped there,” Penner said of regional district chair Bruce Bidgood.

bcclassi� ed.comMP plugs tanker ban billBy JOSH MASSEY

NEW DEMOCRAT MP Nathan Cullen says he has no big objections about oil products being exported from North America with the one exception that nothing should be transported through his Skeena – Bulkley Valley riding.

It means that not even a plan to ship re-� ned oil by tanker, which some studies have shown to be less harmful than bitumen crude in the case of a spill, would be permit-ted from the north coast if a private member’s bill being promoted by Cullen is ever turned into law.

Cullen provided a rundown of his “An Act to Defend the Pa-ci� c Northwest” bill at a public session held at the Sportsplex Oct. 16.

He does not go so far as to include pipelines in his ban bid but his bill does call for the Na-tional Energy Board to review such proposals to determine their val-ue-added economic and job-creating potential.

Nor does the pro-posed ban apply to LNG tankers or any tankers that might be heading north and south up the coast, as the bill is directed at banning tanker traf� c bound for ports across the Paci� c Ocean in particular.

Cullen said his bill would not apply to ar-eas outside the bound-aries of his constitu-ency, arguing that other areas have to make their own decisions about oil exports. And against the charge that his bill is a

“not in my back yard” measure, Cullen said there are particular as-pects to the coastal en-vironment that make it highly unfavourable for oil export.

This was his re-sponse to those like Ann Kantakis, who said she is strongly opposed to Northern Gateway, when they asked Cullen how his proposed law would protect the coast from other oil shipping projects, for instance if an alternative line was built to Alaska.

“It depends on what your backyard is,” Cul-len said afterwards. “Some places we recog-nize, as a country, that shouldn’t be threatened. We do it all the time. It isn’t a question of re-source development or not, it’s what kind and under what condition.”

Cullen started the discussion with a de-scription of the En-bridge Northern Gate-way pipeline project, the blocking of which is the main goal of his legislation.

Enbridge is work-ing on ful� lling the 209 conditions imposed on it by the National En-ergy Board if it wishes the pipeline to be built.

Northern Gateway would mean 250 tank-ers a year coming to and from a Kitimat export terminal carrying di-luted bitumen pumped through a 1,177km pipeline from Alberta.

Cullen described the Enbridge project as be-ing � nancially backed by Chinese investment, an arrangement that ul-timately serves foreign energy needs more than

Canada’s need for local economies and local au-tonomy.

“It’s a perverse sub-sidy,” Cullen said of Ca-nadian government sub-sidies to the oil industry in general.

Local resident Da-vis Lindsay asked what Cullen would do to offset the loss of jobs that banning projects like Northern Gateway would mean.

Cullen responded that renewable energy sector jobs could be achieved through redi-recting money currently given in subsidies to oil companies. He added that publicly-� nanced child care programs could boost productiv-ity by freeing up more parents to work.

And in replying to a question from Bruce Hill about the chances of his bill ever be-ing passed, Cullen ac-knowledged it was a long shot. “I want to give my colleagues across the aisle the ex-cuse to do the right thing,” said Cullen.

The MP also spoke elsewhere in the area.

FOR A few days it looked like there would be a race for the two Terrace seats on the Coast Moun-tains School District (CMSD) board.

But Oct. 17 Diana Penner withdrew her nomination, mean-ing incumbent and current board chair Art Erasmus and incum-bent Roger Leclerc would be ac-claimed as the two Terrace repre-sentatives.

With Gary Turner returning as the trustee for Thornhill (also by acclamation), Terrace and area fac-es around the board table will be the same as they have been since the last election in 2011.

Both Penner and Leclerc sug-gested last week that they only decided to run when they saw that no one else had.

They filed after the nomina-tion deadline of Oct. 10 was

extended over the Thanksgiving long weekend to Oct. 14 after only one name – that of Erasmus – was put forward by the initial deadline.

“I only put my name in after the nomination period was over and trustee Electoral Area 2 was short a candidate,” said Leclerc by email last week of the lack of candidates for the two school board Terrace seats. Leclerc, the current vice-chair, had cited time constraints in his initial decision not to run.

Penner withdrew her papers shortly before 4 p.m. Oct. 17, the deadline for taking one’s name off the ballot.

“I did just 10 minutes ago af-ter giving it much consideration and prayer,” said Penner late Fri-day afternoon by email, respond-ing to a query about whether ei-ther had withdrawn their names by the filing deadline.

Leclerc now says he will now have to manage his time to fulfill his trustee duties.

He thought the lack of candi-dates for the two Terrace school board seats may have to do with terms now being four years as of this year instead of three years as was the case before.

While interest in filling Ter-race’s school board seats is evi-dently weak, that’s not the case at the city – 13 people are vying for the six council seats in Ter-race chambers and two people are running for mayor.

In Kitimat, three people are vying for two seats on the school board, and in the Hazeltons two people are in the running for that area’s one school board seat.

A statement from the ministry of transportation and infrastruc-ture confirmed that highways staff are looking at options for enhancing the Sande Overpass.

“Any design we con-sider will include the ability to get long trucks through the intersection safely and efficiently,” said the statement.

Councillor Stacey Tyers also brought up the need for increased

lighting on local high-ways.

“We want to put more money than we have in the past into secondary highways and side roads,” Stone said.

He was in town

promoting – and look-ing for comment – on the provincial govern-ment’s latest efforts at a transportation plan called BC On The Move intended to set out a se-ries of projects over the next 10 years. Todd said

improvements should be announced in the next year and happen within a few years after that.

Off again and on againelection is off for sure AN iPad that was stolen Sept. 22

in the Nass Valley was recovered because the Find My IPad App took police straight to the house in which it was located.

The owner of the IPad in-formed the Terrace RCMP that he had used the app Find My IPad and received a GPS beacon that the stolen IPad was at an address in the 3900 block of Hagen St.

Police were able to get a search warrant using this information.

The iPad in question was located and seized inside of the residence indicated by the app.

Charges of possession of stolen property are being forwarded to Crown Counsel on a 21 year-old man.

In an unrelated separate inci-dent two weekends ago involving another electronic device, police report a Curtis GPS unit and med-ication were stolen from an un-locked vehicle on Merkley Road.

LENA PENNER and her husband are just two of the seniors ready to move into the just-completed addi-tion to the Terrace Senior Citizens Residence on Tuck Ave. in the horseshoe.

“This’ll be my husband and I,” said Penner gesturing to one of the five new units which will be their home.

She’s looking forward to getting the “drapes in, pictures on the wall,” when they move, relocating from a Thornhill mobile home in part because of health rea-sons.

Penner’s also looking forward to being neighbours with two friends, C Hay-ward and Fran Ruchofzke, who have lived in the com-plex for years and who enjoy the quiet dead end street and gardening plots.

The five new one-bed-room units bring the com-plex’s total to 23, and the

new addition is being touted as an example of what can happen when a community gathers to help those less fortunate.

The project was “out of our reach until the commu-nity rallied around and came together,” said Terrace & District Christian Council for Social Resources secre-tary treasurer Lowell Hol-mquist at the building’s of-ficial opening Oct. 15.

Coming in under budget and ahead of schedule (at $300,000, “lower than our lowest estimate”), the proj-ect owes much of its success to contractor John Van De Velde, he said.

“If it wasn’t for John’s push this wouldn’t have hap-pened,” said Holmquist.

The addition was first proposed several years ago and received a planning boost through David Block, the city’s development ser-vices director, who was able to secure some money from

the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation.

But when a bid to se-cure construction money from BC Housing, the prov-ince’s housing agency, fell through, Holmquist credited

Van De Velde with lining up donations of reduced cost services.

Ground broke on the project in April, 2013, even though money to pay for the project was uncertain until

just a month before that, he said.

Holmquist thanked “the graciousness of the trades not getting paid at the exact time the cheques were writ-ten.”

The project also received a $60,000 injection after the Terrace Christ Lutheran church after the congrega-tion sold its building.

Even a tour of the con-struction site by youngsters from the Terrace Christian Reformed Church result-ed in a donation – $360, enough to buy the nails that went into the project.

Holmquist added the project works with the city’s goal of encouraging more af-fordable housing units, stat-ing that “the mandate and desire of the city meshed together very well” with the project.

With the additional con-struction, the senior’s com-plex now contains 23 units over six buildings – 14 bach-elor and nine one-bedroom places.

The bachelor units are approximately 340 square feet, and the one bedroom units are approximately 520 square feet.

HouseboundHomes for all a critical issue in this year’s municipal election

Concerted effort required for units

With housing prices soaring and afford-able rental

units still in scarce supply, the city’s housing strategy promises to be a major focus in the municipal elections.

Over the past years the city has put in place a num-ber of policies designed to promote housing develop-ment and the city is starting to see the results of those policies.

But some decisions re-lated to increasing housing for lower or middle income earners have yet to bear fruit and are works in progress that will have to be tackled by the newly elected coun-cil.

One issue facing the new council is deciding how to spend $951,000 that was gained from the sale of land at the corner of Kenney and Park to Calgary-based Coast to Coast.

The current council de-cided that some of the mon-ey generated from that sale would be placed in a new affordable housing fund ac-count created this year for housing-related initiatives.

But it will be up to the next council to decide how much of the nearly $1 mil-lion will be placed in the account and how it will be spent.

A group that has a hous-

ing project in mind can ap-ply to the city for assistance if it meets a variety of crite-ria, including that their proj-ect mission meets the needs of a specific demographic.

A city policy setting out its objectives states projects should “supply affordable housing for low and moder-ate income family and single person households.”

The city also expects to bolster its affordable hous-ing efforts by charging $500 a bed for a work camp be-ing planned at its industrial park.

One tangible effort to provide affordable hous-ing has yet to take hold and that’s contained in the sales agreement between Coast to Coast and the city for the above-mentioned Kenney and Park corner lot.

Coast to Coast has agreed to set aside 20 per cent of its planned 105 housing units there at a rate 20 per cent below market value for resi-dents of moderate income.

Construction of those units has yet to start.

One area in which the city has been very active is in granting rezoning appli-cations to property owners who wish to build housing and secondary suites or to subdivide lots.

A bylaw created just two years ago to allow for de-tached secondary suites in

the R1 zone has led to the construction of six second-ary suites this summer.

The last available city building report shows there was an increase in housing permits with a value total-ling $19 million.

In August alone there were five new building per-mits for single family homes applied for by the city, bringing the year-to-date

total to 28 and carrying an accumulated value of more than $6 million.

Eight new mobile home permits were also taken out and nine residential addi-tions competed that month.

The total also includes five new multi-family resi-dential development permits valued at $3,293,500.

Council decisions related to rezoning could pave the

way for future multi-family housing.

A large parcel on the cor-ner of Twedle and Thomas on the bench, just south of Uplands Elementary, might have in earlier years been set aside for single family homes.

But the city has now en-couraged owner Colleen Froese to rezone the whole lot from R1 to R3 which will

allow for townhouses or du-plexes.

As for single family homes, there’s been a lot of construction activity on lots on existing subdivisions just east of Ecole Mountainview on the bench.

And two other subdivi-sions, also on the bench, are nearing registration status, says city development ser-vices director David Block.

ESTABLISHED APRIL 27, 1988

THE Klabona Keepers, the group of Tahltan joined with others in mount-ing two recent blockades of the road into the Red Chris mine, often cites a 1910 declaration by their predeces-sors when it comes to ownership and control of their territory.

“We claim the sovereign right to all the country of our tribe – this country of ours which we have held intact from the encroachments of other tribes, from time immemorial, at the cost of our own blood,” reads one portion of that Oct. 18, 1910 declaration.

As emphatic as that is, the Tahltan leaders of that day also sketched out a pathway toward the future.

In return for one or more large portions of land to be regarded as ab-solute Tahltan territory, the leaders were willing to relinquish the rest to the B.C. government for “adequate compensation” in the call for a trea-ty.

“.... [I]t will be better for our-selves,, also better for the govern-ments and all concerned, if these treaties are made with us at a very early date, so all friction and mis-understanding between us and the whites may be avoided ....” the dec-laration continues.

The history of interaction between peoples is populated by errors, stub-bornness and downright ignorance.

So it’s left mostly to imagine what might have been the case today if the federal and provincial governments of 1910 had listened – and acted – in accordance with the Tahltan wishes.

CLAUDETTE SANDECKI

EDITORIALA6 www.terracestandard.com OPINION Wednesday, October 22, 2014 Terrace Standard

Young kids may be watching for a sleigh drawn by eight tiny rein-

deer. I’m on the lookout for a square-wheeled Red River cart drawn by a wheezing three legged ox. What oth-er mode of transportation could take more than three weeks to deliver from Cal-gary a replacement part no bigger than a cell phone for my treadmill? A dog team of starving Chihuahuas?

I placed the order August 18 after a repairman ser-viced my machine, ending its groaning. Facing another winter when poor walking conditions might curtail my outdoor exercise, I invested in this replacement thinking if I could clock my steps and mileage, I might make better use of the equipment.

The console left Sears’ Calgary parts warehouse the third week of September. But as of October 13, it has not yet arrived, though at the time of ordering the supplier assured me it would be “de-livered to my mailbox Sep-tember 3.”

Even then I � gured a de-livery date of September 3 was pie in the sky. I wasn’t green enough to expect Sears

stocked their warehouse with consoles for every model treadmill they sold in 1996. Who knows from where Sears itself might have to order the part I needed. On-tario? That’s the address on the warranty, though it was printed in the U.S.

I waited patiently for the day my six-ounce repair would drop into my mailbox.

My patience ran out when I received instead a lengthy statement covered with � ne print ending with “New bal-ance $144.90, minimum pay-ment $20 due October 23.”

Interest at the rate of 29.9 percent has been charged since September 28 ... for

a product I haven’t yet re-ceived. Included in what Sears claim I owe is $32.42 for bedroom slippers I picked up and fully paid for with cash August 7, 2014.

As never fails to happen, though my � les cover many years, the one receipt I need-ed (but had tossed) was the one from August 7.

After spending the better part of a fruitless Thursday afternoon on the phone with various Sears departments about this foul-up, I visited Sears’ local of� ce October 10 where it was pointed out to me customers are under video surveillance, which would reveal if I had indeed made the August 7 payment. Except the video erases af-ter 30 days. Likewise for their computer records; my payment would be long lost in the company’s computer � les.

No matter how busy the Terrace outlet may be on weekends, I was in no mood to be put off by their offer to photocopy my statement and check back with me Monday or Tuesday. (While I held a lengthy exchange on the outlet’s phone with a Sears of� ce, twice borrowing the manager’s ballpoint to jot

down details including a phone number, only one cus-tomer walked in.)

I could have slunk out without a satisfactory con-clusion to my visit. But I’ve dealt with too many similar situations, and read many advice columns on how to seek a remedy for less than satisfactory service. Advice always boils down to several commonsense rules:

File your complaint soon-er rather than later. Do your homework. Take along re-ceipts and other documents. (Never toss paid bills as I did. Gather them in a shoe-box; they become critical.)

Note the names of whoev-er you speak with, any phone numbers used to reach them and a brief summary of your conversation with each.

If the � rst person you speak with is no help, go higher. Speak to a supervisor. Persevere.

Never use offensive or abusive language. A polite, � rm and never-say-die at-titude usually will get you through an obstructive cus-tomer-service department.

I’m still waiting for de-livery. Maybe to lower feed costs, the ox pastures as he travels.

Politeness goes a long way

Memories of long ago friend rekindled

Terrace Standard Wednesday, October 22, 2014 VIEWPOINTS www.terracestandard.com A7

If I had to use one word to describe my friend, Gordie Bible, it would be “laugh-ing” or “joyous” – some-

thing which would capture the es-sence of his absolute zest for life.

He laughed a lot, and he sang, too – the fast, catchy lyrics and melodies of Jimmie Rodgers – Honeycomb. Tucumcari. Woman from Liberia.

The laughter and song seemed to well up in him like water from a spring. It watered everyone around him.

He and I were born and raised in Castor, in the Battle River country of east central Alberta.

Except for those times when we had to be inside, such as in school or at home for meals and sleep, we lived outdoors all sea-sons of the year. We entertained ourselves. We lived great adven-tures.

Like the time we explored the Lynx Caves. In earlier years an old musket – perhaps from the fur trading days – had been found near the mouth of those caves.

The caves held a mystery to us on their own; the legend of the musket only fired our imagina-tions more.

We hiked the four or five miles to Hatherly Valley and worked our way through its dense spruce stands, along its winding creek, sandstone cliffs towering above us.

At the mouth of the cave, a cold breeze blew in our faces from the cave interior as we knelt down and pulled ourselves under a huge sandstone boulder. We worked our way as far back as we could, the cave floor layered in porcupine quills.

When we could go no fur-ther, we scrawled our names on a piece of paper and left it on a ledge, with the date we had swal-lowed our fear and crawled into the blackness.

Another time, while we were rafting on the creek near the old railroad trestle, we heard a freight train approaching from the direc-tion of Coronation.

We paddled frantically for

shore. Beaching the raft, we scrambled up the cliff and jammed ourselves under the tres-tle timbers and railroad ties, our heads inches below the rails. We waited, our adrenaline and breath pumping. We didn’t have long to wait.

That huge locomotive and string of boxcars thundered over our heads, their steel wheels

squealing and pounding in a long, loud cacophony.

We didn’t move until the ca-boose finally cleared the trestle and the train moved on towards town. The train crew suspected nothing. Gordie and I walked on home, the darkness gathering around us.

We sometimes rode horses together, and could he ride. Like the wind. Like the Blackfoot war-riors who roamed those plains in the 1800s.

Bareback, leaning low over his horse’s neck – his white horse, Ghost, in a flat out run, mane and tail streaming in the wind, clouds of snow flying – they went by me and my mount like we were standing still.

I can see them still and hear the cadence of the hoof beats and Gordie’s wild yells and irrepress-ible laughter washing back over me. Washing over me, over the years since I last saw and heard him.

Our family moved to a town in southern Alberta when I was 14,

and I lost track of him.I thought of him over the years

and often wondered what had happened to him. At another’s suggestion a few days ago, I did an internet search for him. The initial search results raised my hopes but as I read on, the truth came home.

Gordie died 10 years ago.But I found his mother’s

phone number and gave her a call. We talked about Gordie. We talked about her family and mine. We talked about old times, and as we talked, memories rekindled.

I told her I was going to write a story about her son and send her a copy.

I’m thankful and privileged to have known Gordie and of having had the pleasure of his company, if only for a few years.

I’m enriched because of the experience.

And perhaps you, in my tell-ing, have also been touched by his spirit, his irrepressible spirit.

STRIKING TERRACE teachers took their cause to the Sande Overpass in August.

Dear Sir:Recently, the Confer-

ence Board of Canada announced that the edu-cation system in British Columbia was the best in Canada and the third best in the world, after Finland and Japan. So, how is it possible that teachers in this prov-ince have achieved this remarkable reputation?

Our per-student grant in British Colum-bia is $1,000 below the national average, in-deed 10th out of 10. Our student-educator ratio is the worst in Canada.

Before the settle-ment, our teachers are now the lowest paid in Canada after little PEI. A quick check of my old school district, Otta-wa/Carleton, for exam-ple, indicates that I, as a teacher at maximum with a master’s degree, would be paid over $100,000, compared to my $81,500 salary here.

What has been the impact on our schools of the budget shortfalls? Remember the abor-

tive attempts to save money with the four-day week? While the provincial government likes to point out that student enrolment has dropped and funding has increased, it is easy to show that compared to other provinces, BC’s funding increases have not kept up with those of other provinces.

My department had an annual operat-ing budget of $1,500, enough for a couple of class sets of books. Like most teachers, I spent hundreds of dollars of my own money buying resources.

When Christy Clark tore up the teachers’ contract in 2002, the limits on overall num-bers and the numbers of special needs students in each class were re-moved. These students with Individual Educa-tion Plans (IEPs) re-quire extra assistance or modification of their in-struction, and whereas before the limit might have been two or three

in a class, it became common to have as many as eight IEP stu-dents in one class, as I had.

The vast majority of teachers are proud, car-ing, dedicated profes-sionals. The strike was not about wages and benefits. We will still be at the bottom of the sal-ary range at the end of the contract’s six years.

I am appalled by

the silence of our lo-cal school trustees and administrators over the years as we have all struggled to keep this system afloat, and by the parents who, rather than acknowledging the successes of teach-ers under these difficult circumstances, choose to blame them for the shortfalls that have re-sulted from underfund-ing.

I retired this year and am leaving to go back East, but it breaks my heart that my students had to be out of school when they are anxious to do well in Grade 12, and my fellow teach-ers were on the picket lines for months, endur-ing significant financial hardships. This is a completely intolerable situation, and would never have happened

if the government had lived up to its responsi-bilities.

I am proud of my fel-low teachers for stand-ing up to the bullying government and for making huge personal sacrifices to protect their rights and public education. I fear, how-ever, that the situation will be repeated in the future and that the at-mosphere will remain

toxic for years to come, unless parents wake up and acknowledge that B.C. is fortunate in having one of the best educational systems in the world thanks to its hard-working teach-ers. Respect education; demand a fully-funded public education sys-tem in this province.

Andrew Williams, Terrace, B.C.

Dear Sir:Democracy is an

interesting concept es-pecially when you con-sider the different ways governing bodies come into being.

Municipal elections, in my opinion, conform to what we generally think of as democratic.

But, again in my opinion, regional dis-trict boards, do not. I am referring, specifically, to the Kitimat- Stikine regional district. On this particular board, most of the board members

are appointed by city councils from commu-nities within the district.

As property own-ers in the regional dis-trict, we do not get to elect the majority of the board as is the case with municipal elections.

Of further concern is the unaccountability of the board and staff to the public.

With the recent and past record of this par-ticular regional dis-trict, it is incumbent upon all voters in the municipalities that are

encompassed by the re-gional district to take a good look at who they are voting for and what their track record has been on the regional district board.

It would appear from my experience over a number of years in dealing with this par-ticular regional district that once the election is over, the democratic process of input from the people is thrown out the window.

Case in point: the recent debacle over

garbage pickup in the greater Terrace area (i.e. Lakelse Lake, Remo, etc.).

The concerns raised by affected residents seem, for the most part, to be totally ignored.

So, on October 24, 2014, I would encour-age everyone affected by this proposed by-law to show up at the regional district meet-ing.

Place of meeting to be determined.

Howard Gray,Prince Rupert, B.C.

Dear Sir:Webster’s diction-

ary states the defini-tion of consult as: to talk things over, confer to seek information or instruction from to consider; have regard for.

At the most recent public consultation in regard to garbage dis-posal, the first state-ment I heard from a re-gional district employee was “the decision has already been made to proceed with curbside collection – but your opinions would be wel-

come.”Possibly I was ex-

pecting too much. I had truly hoped that pub-lic opinion would have been taken into consid-eration.

As a summer resi-dent of Lakelse Lake, I would not be around at the appropriate times to utilize this service.

Not to mention the fact that 1st Avenue is 200 metres from our residence and it would be difficult in the best of conditions to drag an appropriate garbage receptacle up a rough

gravel drive.In the winter, there

is nowhere one could leave garbage and hope it would still be there for collection/let alone hope to find your con-tainer at the end of the day. the road is ditched and fairly deep on both sides.

The conservation of-ficer that spoke at the last regional district meeting is more than aware of the difficulties involved.

He was not in favour. No mention was made about the fact school

aged children walk this road to catch a bus ear-ly in the morning and adults walk this area on a regular basis. This does not make for a safe situation.

Numerous land own-ers had difficulties with the bylaws that were presented prior to the regional district meet-ing.

Unfortunately there were more questions than answers at the Sept. 13 regional dis-trict meeting.

Sandra Kirby,Terrace, B.C.

(250)638-7283

By MARY ANN MISFELDT

I AM afraid our president’s eloquent plea for volunteers to help with Le-gion activities has not resulted in as rapid a response from our members as we could have wished.

The turnout for last Tuesdays meeting just made the required quo-rum and neither Steak Night or the Saturday Meat Draw have heard from any new volunteers.

If there is not more interest dis-played, these are popular activities that may fall by the wayside.

On a more positive note the Poppy, Poster, Essay and Video contest is un-derway again.

Packages explaining the program have been sent to all schools in the area and students are encouraged to inquire about them at their schools, at the Legion or by calling Comrade Peter Crompton at 250-638-8627. This is something that can be done as a school project or an individual one.

The First Annual Buster Patterson Memorial 8-Ball Tournament held recently in the Legion was very suc-cessful. First Place went to Paul Carr and second place to Ray Forget.

Kim Patten was third place and Ric Bennet took fourth. More impor-tantly, every one enjoyed the event and many memories were shared of a good comrade and a fine man.

Preparations are underway for the 60th Annual Curling Bonspiel which will take place January 30 and 31 and February 1, 2015.

Set those days aside curlers, it should be a grand event.

Because November 11th falls on a Tuesday this year, which is the usual

date for the monthly meeting, that meeting will be held in the Branch on Nov. 12 commencing at 7 p.m. Mem-bers to attend and volunteers are ur-gently needed.

Needed also are volunteers to man poppy trays in Terrace Friday night, Nov. 7 and all day Saturday, Nov. 8. There are signup sheets in the Branch.

Please Comrades – this is the time of year we can show our appreciation for those who died for us or still suf-fer the aftermath of their honourable wounds. Let’s see some names on those lists – it is only an hour or two of your time.

Don’t forget about our regular Meat Draws on Saturday afternoons from 4 to 6 and Steak Night on the first Friday of the month.

Events in the planning are a garage sale from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Oct. 25. Any donations are welcome and if assistance is needed, you can leave word at the Legion or call Mary Ann/Doug at 250-638-1827; a Hallow-een Dance on October 31; Remem-brance Day Parade and Ceremonies on Nov.11 with parade lineup in the Safeway parking lot at 10:15 a.m.

We Will Remember Them

Legion poster contest for students on nowWITH A smile on her

face, Sandy Pringle, a front counter staff member at the Terrace RCMP detachment, sat down to have her head shaved as promised after the police offi-cers managed to raise $10,000 for Cops for Cancer Tour de North.

She happily donated her shorn locks to go to be used to help make wigs for kids with can-cer.

Pringle said her incentive to help out came from her mom passing away from can-cer when she was quite young and who had lost her hair.

Having all your hair fall out takes away your identity and the way you look at your-self, she said.

Getting her head shaved helps those who are struggling with cancer and that’s em-powering, she added.

Reva Jurgeleit of Grand Ole Barber Shop did the honours, say-ing she’s shaved about 50 to 60 people’s heads in the past five or six years.

Afterward, Prin-gle said her newly bald head felt “good and chilly.”

Several RCMP offi-cers were in attendance

to watch and take pho-tographs. Inspector Dana Hart and staff sergeant Sid Lecky

took the opportunity to rub her smooth head.

Pringle and her hus-band will renew their

vows in February and she’s hoping to “rock a mohawk” hairstyle by then.

Head shave ‘empowers’

■ Zombie mobZOMBIES TAKE a break for a group photo at the band shell in George Little Park during the sixth annual Terrace Zombie Walk Oct. 11. They were looking for tasty brains to eat but also remembered the living people by bringing donations for the food bank, about 60 in total. A makeup workshop before the walk ensured every-one looked suitably scary. Organizer Chelsea Barg thanked everyone for the donations and said everyone looked amazing.

TEST YOUR brain against your friends at the Friends of the Li-brary’s quiz night.

It’s also a fundraiser and there’s prizes for each round and the top three winning teams.

Friends of the Library is a volunteer group, formed in the fall of 2012, that supports, pro-motes, and fundraises for the Terrace Public Library, said member Sarah Artis.

“We are not fundraising for anything specific,” she said.

“Friends decides how to spend the money we raise, though we get direction from the library on what they need. For example, this year, we helped purchase furniture for the new Ed Curell reading lounge.”

Until now, Friends of the Li-brary’s main activity has been selling used books – mainly at the farmers market in the sum-mer.

“We wanted to host a quiz night – first of all, because quiz

nights in Terrace have always been really fun. And second, it can raise some money for the library,” said Artis.

“There’s going to be tons of prizes - big and small.

“There will be prizes for each round of questions as well as for the first, second and third place teams.”

Friends believes the library is one of our town’s most pre-cious resources and they want to do anything they can to help keep it thriving, and let others appreciate the value it brings to Terrace, she said.

Friends of the Library is re-ally excited about hosting its first ever quiz night.

The questions are all pre-pared and we can’t wait to chal-lenge our participants.

Get your game on, this Fri-day, Oct. 24, 7 p.m. at the art gallery! For more details, in-cluding cost and team size, see Fundraiser in City Scene below.

Social issues the keyfor first time candidateBORN IN Pouce Coupe in northeastern B.C. Noelle Bulleid moved with her family to Prince Rupert when she was young.

“My mother is from Port Simpson and my father is English,” says Bulleid, 53, who is making her first run at elected office by seek-ing one of the six Ter-race council seats.

The family originally moved to the northwest so her father could take up a longshoring job in Prince Rupert but the family has called Ter-race home since 1978.

Bulleid has a social services worker cer-tificate from Northwest Community College and is continuing her education as a part time student at the college with a goal of obtaining a diploma in the same field.

“Eventually I wish to get my bachelor’s in social services,” adds Bulleid.

Bulleid has an added connection to the col-lege – following receiv-ing her social services worker certificate in 2008 she was hired by the college to be its res-idents’ life facilitator, a job that involved being

a virtual den mother at its 84-student capacity dorm accommodations.

She now has a term position at the college in assisting First Na-tions students to navi-gate through its courses and programs.

It’s that kind of con-nection to people which is giving Bulleid the motivation to run for of-fice.

“I like to speak up for people and I spend a lot of time volunteering,” says Bulleid in citing her involvement with a newly-formed society to promote literacy and time spent at the local community garden.

“What I want to do is speak for those peo-ple who maybe need a voice so that they have someplace to turn to ... It’s important that ev-erybody is listened to and advocated for.”

Bulleid lists home-lessness, lack of hous-ing and literacy as key issues. “We don’t know who they area but we do know there are families affected,” says Bulleid of the lack of housing for lower income earners. “What’s happening to those families – that’s my concern. They need to know they can reach out to someone somewhere.”

She’s particular-ly aware of housing through her work at the college. “Students can’t come here for training because they can’t find a place to live. That re-ally doesn’t balance out,” says Bulleid.

And if housing for students is a problem, Bulleid says it’s much the same for seniors on limited incomes.

Bulleid was nomi-nated by Charles Bul-leid and Kerry Clarke.

SEAN BUJTAS de-cided to wade into mu-nicipal politics after the 2011 local government elections, inspired by his desire to improve the city in which he was born and raised.

Bujtas, who turns 39 this December, is cur-rently general manager of Chances Terrace, for-merly a bingo hall and now a casino regulated through the BC Lottery Corporation, where he has worked since 1997.

Coming from a soccer-loving fam-ily, his parents, George and Bev Bujtas, were awarded the Order of Terrace in 2006 for their work in youth soccer, a legacy which Bujtas says he is continuing.

“I recently joined the competitions commit-tee for BC Youth Soccer

so the north would have a voice. I am on their competitions commit-tee,” he said.

Bujtas says some of his priorities will include infrastructure (both func-tional and recreational), housing and youth recre-ational spaces.

“There are some

changes I would like to see, such as to infra-structure,” said Bujtas. “I support economic growth in the commu-nity but being cognizant of our environment at the same time and mak-ing sure we are going in the right direction.

“Changing the over-pass isn’t enough, we need to make sure we have the land available for the second overpass in preparation for when we build it,” said Buj-tas of dealing with the traffic volume using the Sande Overpass.

He said densification is good, but green space is important.

“It seems everything is being gobbled up for development but if you don’t have green space here and there it’s not inviting, you just be-

come this giant bed-room community.”

And Bujtas said it’s important young people have an adequate num-ber of activities and places to go. “I go into that Skeena [Middle] School now and I go wow, we need more stuff that is new [like the school],” he said. His wish list would in-clude a new swimming pool and work to ad-dress the lack of a com-munity centre.

Bujtas also advocates drawing up civic project plans ahead of time so that as infrastructure and other grants from senior governments come up, applying for them is quicker and more efficient.

He was nominated by Christopher Gair and Troy Hansen.

Council candidate seeksa sixth term at city hallLYNNE CHRISTIAN-SEN is running for a sixth consecutive seat on city council. First elected in 1999, she is the longest serving per-son on the current coun-cil.

“The year I came on council was the year the mill went down and we were struggling to fig-ure out how we were going to get a town to work on next to noth-ing,” said Christian-sen of her first term on council when the city’s then major employer, Skeena Cellulose, fell into receivership and eventual bankruptcy.

“You need continu-ity and someone who has a feel for the history of the community,” she continued, saying that being born and raised in Terrace gives her “a feel for the history of the community.”

Over her past term Christiansen, 58, served as city representative on the Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine and the North Central Govern-ment Association.

Currently she sits on the city’s housing com-mittee, Terrace Public Library committee and the healthy communi-ties committee.

A crafter, Christian-

sen was also president for the Skeena Valley Farmers Market for many years and is cur-rently vice president.

Her professional ca-reer, which was put on hold while she over-came a serious illness two years ago, has in-volved work at drug and alcohol treatment centre and working with people with disabilities through the Northern Health Authority.

She said the biggest breakthrough by the council now ending its three-year term was the progress made in se-curing, developing and now selling portions of the city’s Skeena Indus-trial Development Park.

“I think our biggest accomplishment and our biggest drive is the airport lands and striv-ing for that industrial base,”she said.

She cites the inabili-ty of council to make in-roads with major trans-portation upgrades or to convince the provincial government to help out with affordable housing as areas where the cur-rent council fell short of its aspirations.

“Our biggest frustra-tion is to try to get some support from the pro-vincial government for housing,” Christiansen said.

In her opinion crack-ing that nut will involve continuing to pro-mote regional interests through a proposed and promoted revenue shar-ing agreement with the provincial government based on potential tax revenues large indus-trial projects.

Christiansen was nominated by Colleen Davis and Elizabeth Williams.

JAMES CORDEIRO, who is running for a second term on Terrace city council follow-ing his first election in 2011, is just like a lot of local resi-dents.

“We came north in 2004 – for two years,” he says of the move here from the Lower Mainland prompted because his wife had just completed her pharmacy training and accepted a job in Terrace.

And now, fully settled in the community, wife Kirst-en continues her pharmacy career while Cordeiro, 39, is involved in several local businesses.

He describes himself as an entrepreneur thanks to his ownership of Blackstone’s Restaurant, managing the The Lodge at Skeena Land-ing accommodations in the same complex and of his mentorship role at Xanders coffee shop downtown.

Cordeiro says his motiva-tion lies in the need for the city to think out of the box.

He advocates trying dif-ferent things to establish a steady economy as opposed to what had been the tradi-tional forest industry-based boom and bust model.

“For that I would be con-centrating on small busi-

ness,” said Cordeiro. “I’ve said it might be better to have 10 businesses who hire 10 people each rather than one business hiring 100 peo-ple. If one of those 10 goes down, you lose 10 jobs. But if that one big business goes down, you lose all 100 jobs.”

Cordeiro, one of the councillors who voted to oppose Enbridge’s North-ern Gateway pipeline plan shortly after the 2011 mu-nicipal election, remains op-posed, saying that while he wants economic activity, it shouldn’t come at the risk of “selling the things that make Terrace and this region unique.”

Still, Cordeiro is a solid

supporter of the city’s sale of approximately half of its Skeena Industrial Develop-ment Park’s 2,000 acre in-ventory to Chinese business interests.

“When I spoke about those 10 businesses, that’s the kind of activity envi-sioned there, a variety of businesses,” he said.

“What I’d like is to get to a point where my son doesn’t have to move out to find a job,” he said of his eight-year-old. “We need something so our young don’t have to leave or to have something to come back to.”

Cordeiro acknowledged that the pace of subdivi-sion development involving clearing of forested land may make local residents uncom-fortable.

“But if people want op-portunities to stay, then there need to be places to live,” he said.

His most frustrating time on council has been dealing with the issue of providing housing for all income levels.

“The city does have limi-tations of what it can accom-plish,” said Cordeiro.

Cordeiro was nominated by Bruno Belanger and Alex Vogel.

AN INCIDENT has prompted the Terrace RCMP to remind the public, specifically fe-male pedestrians, to be mindful of possible threats to safety.

Shortly before 9 p.m. Oct. 9 a woman was walking home with groceries when she was approached by two men in a brown van on the Sande Overpass, indi-cated information pro-vided to the police.

The two men in the minivan pulled up be-side the woman, made a comment to her, and then asked if she want-ed a ride. The woman refused to go anywhere with the men and they left toward Kenney St.

The driver was de-scribed as a Caucasian man in his 50s, wearing glasses, bald, and had a raspy voice.

The passenger is de-scribed as a man in his 50s with dirty blond hair. The van was a sandy brown, possibly a Caravan, with tinted windows and no back seats. The smell of body odor was emitting from the van.

RCMP have issued the following informa-tion about personal safety.

Awareness: The first, and probably most im-portant, component in self-defense is aware-ness of yourself, your surroundings, and a po-tential attacker’s likely strategies.

Often, a criminal’s strategy is to use the advantage of surprise. Studies have shown that criminals are adept at choosing targets that appear to be unaware of what is going on around them.

By being aware of your surroundings and by projecting a force presence, many alter-cations which are com-monplace on the street can be avoided.

Use your sixth sense: Gut instinct. Your intu-ition is a powerful sub-conscious insight into situations and people.

Everyone, especially women, have this gift, but very few pay at-tention to it. Avoid a person or a situation which does not feel safe – you’re probably right.

Self-defence train-ing: It is important to evaluate the goals and practical usefulness of a self-defence program before signing up.

It should include simulated assaults, with

a fully padded instruc-tor in realistic scenarios, to allow you to practise what you’ve learned.

Escape: What if you are suddenly confronted by a predator who de-mands that you go with him – be it in a car, or

into an alley, or a build-ing. It would seem pru-dent to obey, but you must never leave the primary crime scene. You are far more likely to be killed or seriously injured if you go with the attacker than if you

run away (even if he promises not to hurt you).

Run away, yell for help, throw a rock through a store or car window – do whatever you can to attract atten-tion. And if the crimi-

nal is after your purse or other material items, throw them one way while you run the other.

No matter what your age or physical condi-tion, you can and should defend yourself physi-cally. You have both the

moral and legal right to do so. Many people worry that they will anger the attacker and get hurt worse if they defend themselves, but statistics clearly show that your odds of sur-vival are far greater if

you do fight back. Aim for the eyes first and the groin second.

Use the element of surprise to your advan-tage–strike quickly, and mean business.

You may only get one chance.

Community involvementhighlight for candidateFIRST ELECTED to Terrace city council in 2005, then re-elected in 2008 and in 2011, Brian Downie brings a strong sense of volunteerism to the affairs of the city in his bid for a fourth term.

“I was involved in various community projects and back then it was the Sportsplex,” says Downie of his original motivation to run in 2005.

That community ef-fort eventually resulted in the addition of the second sheet of ice and other renovations at the arena.

“A friend of mine then convinced me to run [in 2005] and actu-ally she’s running right now,” adds Downie of Carol Leclerc who is one of two candidates for mayor.

“There are a lot of good things happen-ing right now and it’s important we continue to make them better,” Downie continues of his motivation this time around.

A professional for-ester, Downie retired here as a manager in 2003 with the provin-

cial forest service after 33 years of service.

His career took him to Prince Rupert and then to Smithers be-fore transferring here in 1990.

All those years in the region gave him a chance to watch com-munities change and how they reacted to challenges.

“I think it was my experience in dealing

ºwith the [forest] indus-try and that connection to communities which lead me to municipal politics,” Downie says.

He views Terrace as the center for the region, helped by its interactions with neigh-bouring First Nations communities.

“I really think that’s one of the hallmarks of our community,” says Downie.

The biggest issue the city has faced – and will continue to face – is dealing with growth already evident through the rebuilding of Rio Tinto Alcan’s Kitimat aluminum smelter and B.C. Hydro’s North-west Transmission Line and the potential for more growth from pro-posed lique� ed natural gas plants, he says.

All that industrial ac-tivity means population growth and the need to � nd a way to move

traf� c more ef� ciently through the city, said Downie.

And if there was a frustrating issue, it’s the provision of housing, especially for lower in-come earners.

Downie notes that while the city can en-courage development through zoning and oth-er methods, the city has no direct role in actually building housing.

“I think we can all see the problem, but it’s hard to get to a solu-tion,” he said.

Downie, 67, now runs a small guided tour company.

He was nominated by Bill McRae and Art Erasmus.

Eye Health 2014

76 DARPAN TMSEPTEMBER / OCTOBER 2012Reflecting The South-Asian Lifestyle

A Focus on Teens and Active AdultsWe get most of our information about the world from

our sense of sight. However, many people tend to

overlook eye health as part of their regular health

routine. Taking care of your eyes doesn’t have to

be a cumbersome task. In fact, a simple routine

eye exam can detect vision problems, eye disease

and some general health problems before you are

aware a problem exists. The Canadian Association of

Optometrists recommends eye exams at least every

year or two, yet most Canadians do not see their eye

care professional as often as they should. For people

who wear contact lenses, choosing the best product

for your eyes is even more important – not all contact

lenses are the same. As an eye care professional, I

am committed to educating my patients on the best

options available for their eyes today.

Choosing The Best Lens For Your EyesFirst, I always tell my patients that a fresh lens is

a better lens. One-day replacement contact lenses

have been shown to be the healthiest way to wear

contact lenses. They lead to reduced complications

such as dryness and irritation, fewer unscheduled

eye exams, and more satisfaction for you. Your eyes

can benefit from UV protection too! Sun exposure is

a risk factor for certain types of cataracts and per-

haps other eye disorders. Most people don’t realize

that you can get UV protection† with certain con-

tact lenses.

Finally, I look for contact lenses that allow an

adequate amount of oxygen to permeate the lens.

This is important because oxygen will help keep your

eyes white and bright. Today there are contact lenses

such as the new 1-DAY ACUVUE® TruEye™ Brand

Contact Lenses that offer all of these attributes.

These are the world’s first contact lenses to com-

bine the health and comfort of HYDRACLEAR® 1

technology with the hygiene and convenience of

a single use product. In fact, they were designed,

developed and clinically researched to provide

exceptional comfort and eye health.

At OmniEye and Vision we pride our-

selves on finding contact lens solutions to meet

the demands of today’s busy lifestyle. Drop by

and visit our dedicated team of eye care profes-

sionals at OmniEye and Vision, Burnaby or Port

Moody. With today’s vast variety and innovation in

contact lens technology, achieving healthy, happy

eyes has never been easier.

How important are routine eye examinations for chil-

dren? “In my opinion as an eye doctor and a parent

I think they are terribly important.”

Consider just 3 simple facts:► More than 80 per cent of a child's learning is based

on vision!

► One in five children has a vision disorder

► Once in 6 children diagnosed with a learning disabil-

ity have correctable vision problems

Good vision and eye health are critical to a child's

development. It is up to parents, doctors, nurses, and

teachers to ensure that vision disorders if they exist are

detected and treated as early as possible. Most chil-

dren are unable to communicate their problems and can

accept their vision disorders as the norm and even learn

to compensate for them. Unfortunately, by the time they

are seen by a doctor, many serious long term affects

already set in. For this reason, most campaigns of aware-

ness call for preschool and kindergarten children to have

their eye’s examined and children to be checked each year.

Getting your children examined by an optometrist is dif-

ferent than a school screening. As early as 6 months at

our clinics we check infant eyes for eye muscle alignments/

strabismus, congenital or birth defects like cataracts, lazy

eyes or amblyopia and focusing disorders. By the age of

3 children are usually able to do a full eye exam and have

their vision checked on charts that do not require children to

know their letters, have their depth perception, color vision

along with over-all eye health examined. Remember, pre-

vention of disorders is the goal in medicine; but if needed

early diagnosis and treatment leads to best health out-

comes. The eyes are no different. With eye exercises

and vision training, many muscle imbalances can be treat-

ed, hopefully preventing reading and writing problems and

depth perception issues. Lazy eyes can be treated with

drops or patching and exercises with best results before

the age of 7. If not treated in childhood, the nerve defect

lasts forever, resulting in lazy eyes, and can even prevent

vision from any further development.

EYE EXAMS FOR CHILDREN A BACK TO SCHOOL ESSENTIAL!

By Dr Amit Mathur, O.D.

October is Eye Health month, and optometrists like myself take this opportunity to remind the public on the need for routine eye care. After a start to the school season it is a good reminder for parents to ensure their children are seen annually by their op-tometrist and look for signs and symptoms of eye strain and eye disorders. MSP provides coverage for children’s examinations annually till the age of 19 and early � rst examinations can be performed routinely by 6 months. For parents and doctors, look-ing for signs of misaligned eyes/turned eye called strabismus, or eyestrain while reading is incredibly important. Words moving on a page, losing place excessively while reading, losing attention or getting headaches with reading, and squinting at looking at the board are just some � ags that an eye disorder may be pres-ent. Amblyopia or lazy eye is a serious condition where one of the eyes does not develop fully due to a turned eye or a weakness in focusing that usually that goes unnoticed until a true eye health examination is conducted. However, it is in the early years of development until around the age of 7 where treatment is actually most effective. Vision to a growing child is of utmost importance, and in fact up to 80% of learning in early years can be via the visual system! Don’t let visual disorders interfere in your child’s academic or social development.

MLAs hear of challengesfacing residents of areaMEMBERS OF the provincial legislature learned of several dif-ficulties facing north-western residents when they held a session here recently.

The 11 Members of the Legislative Assem-bly make up the legis-lature’s Select Standing Committee on Finance and Government Ser-vices and their stop here was part of a provincial tour gathering ideas of how the province can best spend taxpayers’ money in the next bud-get year.

Northern Brain In-jury Association direc-tor Cynthia Hyslop told the committee there is a lack of services for brain-injured people in the north and there are weather and geography present difficulties in getting around.

Often money comes in the form of small grants which is grate-fully appreciated, but it’s often too little to make long-term plans and groups often have to re-apply for grants every six months or so, she said.

The association is

asking the government to provide enough mon-ey so the association can disperse it to the groups involved so they can plan for the long-term.

Hyslop said in the province every year, there are 22,000 new cases of brain injury and that the current population of brain-in-jured people is 180,000.

The highest injury risk is for males age 16 to 24, seniors have the second highest risk and brain injuries account for the highest fatality rate of people age 45 and under, she said.

A brain injury can be costly as it can lead to health and social issues. For example, 53 per cent of homeless people are brain injured and 77 per cent of those were injured prior to becom-ing homeless, Hyslop added.

In addition, people are 77 per cent more likely to develop mental illness after a brain in-jury, she said.

“Statistics will show brain injury is a much larger issue than first thought,” said Hyslop.

Brain injuries oc-cur at a rate 100 times that of spinal cord in-juries, 30 times more often than breast can-cer and 400 times more often than HIV/AIDS, and more people suffer brain injuries than mul-tiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, HIV/AIDS and breast cancer com-bined, she added.

The provincial gov-ernment beginning in 1998 cut the amount of money going to help with brain injuries, Hyslop said.

“The lack of money only served to increase government costs,” said Hyslop.

When asked, Hyslop said that the travel chal-lenges here are enor-mous with the roads not being driveable for all 12 months of the year due to weather.

Another challenge are the lack of special-ists in the north.

If a person can make it to a larger centre to see a specialist, which few can afford, often that person is alone or has minimal family nearby and often has to find his or her own way

back home, said Hys-lop.

Northwest Com-munity College senior officials Denis Caron and Cathay Sousa told the committee of road-blocks facing students wanting a higher educa-tion and skills training.

Although the col-lege has received gov-ernment and corporate grants to modernize its industrial training equipment, students have difficulties in com-ing to Terrace.

Issues include stu-dents needing driver’s licences, having dif-ficulty finding housing and tuition costs.

“Our dorm or stu-dent housing is at ca-pacity,” said Caron.

“We had to cancel the heavy equipment program as students had nowhere to stay.”

The delay in train-ing also delays industry from getting the people they need, he added.

The college has made moves to compen-sate by holding train-ing sessions in smaller communities.

Student union or-ganizer Mikael Jensen

called for lower tuition rates.

He noted that more and more students are completing programs but have accumulated ever increasing debt to-tals.

A GROUP of Tahltan and others who had been blocking access to the nearly-completed Red Chris copper mine owned by Imperial Metals have, for now, stopped their action.

The decision ear-lier this week followed the granting to Impe-rial Metals of an in-terim junction to stop the blockade and, as of Oct. 14, an enforcement order which could have resulted in the arrest of people at the blockade.

“When 15 of our elders were arrested in 2005 to protect the Tl’abane [Klappan area] it had huge im-pacts on our commu-nity. Although we were willing to make this sacrifice again, to pro-tect our elders and chil-dren from this trauma, we’ve decided to not be arrested,” the Tahl-tan group known as the Klabona Keepers said in an Oct. 14 statement.

“Instead, we will fight the injunction in court and are calling on Imperial Metals and government to come meet with us to discuss the matter under our own jurisdiction.”

The statement was accompanied by a letter sent to a group of pro-vincial politicians, in-cluding Premier Christy

Clark, and Imperial of-ficials, including presi-dent Pierre Lebel, for a meeting last week.

“This action does not affirm that industry can continue to use injunc-tions as a tool to mar-ginalize the significance of their rights and title. This action is being tak-en to protect the elders, grandmothers, women and youth from RCMP action ordered by the provincial and federal system of government. The Tl’abanot’in [Kla-bona Keepers] have al-ready been arrested as they stood on their land to protect it, but not to-day,” the Oct. 14 state-ment continued.

The blockade by the Klabona Keepers went up Sept. 29 and is as-sisted by environmental activists and by the Sec-wepemc First Nation whose traditional terri-tory takes in the Mount Polley copper mine in the Cariboo.

That mine is also owned by Imperial Met-als and when its tailings pond burst in August, the Red Chris tailings pond design then be-came a focal point for opposition to mining.

The Klabona Keep-ers set up a first block-ade in August after the Mount Polley spill but it was taken down after the Tahltan Central Council

and Imperial Metals reached an agreement for Imperial to pay for an independent review of the tailings pond by a company chosen by the central council, something which the Klabona Keepers first agreed to.

That review is ongo-ing.

At the same time, the province still has to is-sue a effluent discharge permit to Imperial be-fore it is in any position to open the mine. Final power line work to the location still needs to be completed as well.

Randy PrestonFebruary 23, 1959 to October 4, 2014

It is with great sadness that we say goodbye to a remark-able husband, father, grandfa-ther, brother, father-in-law and friend. With his family at his side, Randy passed unexpect-edly but peacefully.

Randy was born and raised in Terrace, the youngest child of Bill and Donalda Preston. He followed his father’s footsteps into the logging indus-try; however, after 30 years, he became a Machine Operator for Nechako Northcoast Contracting. Ran-dy enjoyed fi shing, hunting, 4x4ing, and making people laugh.

Randy leaves behind to cherish his memory, his wife Valerie, children Caitlin (Sean), Jonah (Kirsten), and Zachary; grandchildren Paxten and Tucker; sis-ter Linda, nieces, nephews and many friends. He will

be dearly missed.The family would like to thank Dr. Lim,

Dr. Meyburg, Dr. Moolman, the ICU/Emergency department staff (Serge, Priscilla, Donna, Bella, Anya, Emily, Leslie Ann), for all their support and kindness; and the First Responders and Emergen-cy Personnel for their heroic efforts.

TERRACE RIVER KINGS PHOTO

THE TERRACE River Kings celebrate during the Oct. 11 game against the Prince Rupert Ram-page. The River Kings were able to hold the Rampage back to win 6-4.

River Kings beat RampageTHE TERRACE River Kings contin-ued to crush their early season com-petition with a 6-4 win against the Prince Rupert Rampage Oct. 11 at the Terrace Sportsplex that saw them out-shoot the Rampage 49-28.

The win put Terrace’s CIHL team undefeated and sitting at the top of the western division going into last Saturday’s game against the Smithers Steelheads – results which were not available by press deadline.

River Kings general manager Ray Hallock said last week he is “confi-dent to the max” that the team will continue their win streak.

“Of course I do. This is the best team we have ever had,” said Hallock, noting that the team needs to be 100 per cent the whole season because there are only four playoff spots this year.

During the Oct. 11 game, Terrace took an early lead against the Ram-page, up 3-0 after the first period with goals from captain Steve Cullis (as-sists to Josh Murray and Lee Muir), Corbin Legros on the power play (assists to Muir and Cullis) and Cul-lis again, this time on the power play (assists to Ben Reinbolt and Murray).

The first period saw the only fight of the game, a scrap between Jordan

Aubee and Calen Findlay. Prince Rupert captain Jared Meers

(assists to Tyler Bates, Kory Movald) scored early in the second to briefly tighten the gap, but a powerplay goal by Terrace’s Reinbolt (assists to Corbin Legros, Cullis) 11 minutes in had the River Kings sitting at 4-1 go-ing into the third.

The Rampage came out deter-mined in the third, with a goal by Movald (assists to Greg Sheppard, Tyler Bates) 2:39 in that was matched less than a minute later by Terrace’s Derek Jurista (assists to Nick Ho-meniuk, Chapen LeBlond). But two goals by Craig Munro (assists to Jared David, John Hunt, Jordan Weir, Sheppard), one on the powerplay, had the Rampage with the River Kings in their sights.

But an empty net goal by Cullis sealed the game for the River Kings, who can boast starting the year 3-0 for the first time since the CIHL started keeping track of the games in 2009.

The River Kings next home game is Halloween night against the Kiti-mat Ice Demons and patrons are en-couraged to come in costume – there will be a $250 for best adult costume as well as a prize for best kids cos-tume.

Terrace runners go the distance in Victoria

CONTRIBUTED PHOTO

CALEDONIA SECONDARY School’s Todd Hollett and sports writer Joe Pelletier in Victoria Oct. 12.

A STRONG contingent of Terrace distance runners made the trek to Vic-toria, B.C. last weekend for that city’s annual marathon.

Running in his first full marathon, Joe Pelletier finished 559th out of 1,565 participants overall in 3:56:51, achieving his goal of under four hours.

Also in the full marathon, Darlene Bragg-Hounsell finished with a time of 4:07:35, in 722nd place. And Todd Hollett’s time was 4:15:00, at 835th place.

All Terrace marathoners finished with a time above the race average of 4:18:30.

And the same can be said for Ter-race’s half-marathon participants. Out of 3,795 runners, the average time was 2:14:24.

Terrace’s Rick Tabata finished 749th with a time of 1:50:57. Patrick Hemmons finished 875th with a time of 1:53:05.

Tobi Tabata saw 919th place with a time of 1:53:54.

Robin Hollett’s time of 1:58:11 put her in 1,193rd place.

And Sally-Jayne Philps and Tam-lyn Tabata ran the 8 kilometre race, finishing with times of 50:23 and 1:01:06 respectively.

On the 18th of May 1980, Mount Saint Helens blew its top. The eruption also sent super heated mudflows down the main stem

of the Toutle River. The Toutle was a highly prized salm-

on stream with a robust run of steelhead. Steelhead spawn in the spring of the year, mostly in April and May. The steelhead ripening and spawning in the river at the time of the cataclysm were fried. Those that entered later that spring would have perished. There were some reports that Toutle steelhead entered the nearby Ka-lama River and spawned, but these were probably apocryphal.

The general expectation was that the Toutle would be barren of steelhead and other species of Pacific Salmon for a century. Five years later approximately 2000 wild steelhead returned to the river. Three years later an estimated 2200 steel-head spawned in the Toutle’s South Fork. Steelhead are tough enough to withstand a devastating eruption and the consequent pyroclastic tides, but not, it appears, tough enough to withstand artificial enhance-ment.

Eager to assist the repopulation of the Toutle by wild steelhead, the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) began planting hatchery reared summer steelhead in the river’s south fork. This was a well-meaning but misguided initia-tive undertaken about five years before a handful of concerned fishery biologists and conservation based organizations began to question the outcomes of hatchery produc-tion on the reproductive success of fish.

This opposition did not get much traction until the turn of the cen-tury when enormous breakthroughs in the science surrounding DNA enabled genetic studies that pointed to the conclusion that hatchery stocking was deleterious to wild fish in the first generation and the damage of this genetic pollution was magnified in succeed-ing generations. A dra-matic example of this insidious phenomenon is provided by the steel-head of the Toutle which at latest reckoning are down to a mere 500 in-dividuals.

Despite the fact that the only constant is change, and the corollary that adapting to and embracing it is the only sensible reaction to it, the fisheries managers in Washington and Oregon have supported the status quo. Faced with this resistance, a non-profit NGO called the Wild Fish Conservancy filed suit against the WDFW for violating the Endangered Species Act on the grounds that hatcheries were the cause of unauthorized mortality on wild steelhead stocks. As result of the suit, the WDFW agreed to curtail almost all its early timed hatchery steelhead plants into the rivers flowing into Puget Sound for the next two and half years, and to release none

into the Skagit River for 12 years. Wild fish advo-cates view this last pro-vision as an important coup since it will en-able a study encompass-ing three generations of steelhead that will provide vital informa-tion on the potential for the management of wild steelhead exclusively.

The management of fish in Washington State and Oregon is growing increasingly litigious. The Wild Fish Conservancy suit is one of many that, it is to be hoped, will move the management of fish in those states toward that of Montana where fish

managers conducted public education campaigns in concert with a program that got rid of hatchery trout.

Fortunately, the fisheries staffs of our provincial Ministry of the Environment have for generations generally resisted the siren call of hatchery augmentation. True, there have been hesitant ventures into the world of artificial enhancement, but in the main the provincial fisheries policy has subscribed to the notion that nature doesn’t say one thing and logic another and has striven to protect wild stocks of steelhead, sea going Cutthroat Trout, and various spe-cies of char unless a specific race of fish is facing extinction.

Sadly, the same thing cannot be said for Federal Fisheries whose charge are the other Pacific salmon species. Our civil servants at DFO operate no fewer than 20 salmon hatcheries in the face of mounting evidence that hatcheries are biologically bankrupt and may well represent the single greatest threat to the health of the stocks.

Though it doesn’t represent the same kind of fundamental threat to species in-tegrity as the other hatcheries, the Babine spawning channels at Pinkut Creek and Fulton River in concert with sloppy man-agement practice enable the continuance of an ecologically unsound net fishery that ultimately undermines the biological di-versity of Skeena Salmon stocks including the diversity of the very species it seeks to enhance. The reason this deplorable situa-tion, and hatcheries in general, are allowed to continue is a result of a phenomenon know as regulatory capture, a form of corruption that occurs when a regulatory agency that has a mandate to act in the public interest advances the commercial or special concerns of the interest groups that dominate the industry or sector it is charged with regulating.

DFO’s relation to the fishing industry is a text book case of regulatory capture. And, now the institution is cozying up to fish farmers.

When First Nations, emboldened by the recent decision of the Supreme Court, take a similar approach as fish advocates in Washington and file suit against the fed-eral institution that destroyed their fishery in the first instance, and have acted against their interest since then, this will change.

Hatching suits

THE TERRACE Rod and Gun Club hosted its fifth annual bike biathlon earlier this month.

Thirty athletes participated, with ages ranging from six-years-old up to masters (“I prom-ised not to release ages of those over 18,” said organizer Chris Schooner in an email) on Satur-day, October 4th, 2014.

“This was our second year hosting a pre-race training camp, to teach biking and shooting skills to participants and to familiarize them with biathlon competitions,” he said.

Biathlon consists of two sports combined – in this case mountain bike racing and marks-manship. Competitors race around a trail, shoot, race again,

shoot, etc. Distance raced, and number of circuits increases with age and ability. Fifteen seconds is added to a racer's time for each target missed.

New this year was an enthu-siastic group of six- and seven-year-olds who participated in our pre-race training days, and did a demonstration competition on race day.

the President's Award, is given to

the athlete(s) who try their hard-est, giving their best efforts to the whole event. It was presented to Felicity Cote and Anika Juer-gensen – with our thanks for inspiring those who competed with them and those who had the pleasure of working with them.

“We would like to thank all of those who volunteered their ser-vices, time and resources to help make this event so much fun and such a success,” he said.

Winter Biathlon (skiing and marksmanship) training will be starting this Saturday, October 25th at 10 a.m. at the Terrace Rod and Gun Club. Please con-tact [email protected] or phone 250-638-8270 for more information.

Guns and hoses

charity game coming up

THE SIXTH annual Guns and Hoses charity hockey game is set for No-vember 7 at the Terrace Sportsplex, and area firemen are looking to chip away at the RCMP’s winning aver-age. The annual event, which began the year of Hockeyville, sees local firefighters face off against members of the local RCMP detachment for a good cause.

“Firefighting is all about being a team and those skills are often learned during team sports,” said firefighter and event organizer Jeff Minnhinick. “I personally wanted to run a charity event that I believed in and putting kids in sports that other-wise couldn’t afford it.”

Over the past five years, about $40,000 has been raised for Jump Start Terrace, a charity that connects local kids with money for sports equipment and programs.

“Cops won last year, four out of the five years they have won,” he said. “We raised about $6,700 for Jump Start Terrace.”

He said the firefighters don’t practise together regularly, but a few members do play noon hour hockey “the odd time together.”

And the RCMP typically has an advantage in the game, simply because they have a bigger pool of members to choose from.

Doors open at 6 p.m. and puck drops at 7 p.m. November 7.


Safety Tip:Roundabouts can improve road safety for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians. A few tips: yield to traffi c already inside the roundabout; keep moving once in the roundabout; signal a right turn before you exit; and yield

to pedestrians and cyclists crossing the entry/exit lanes.

Question of the WeekThe government’s EnerGuide says its fuel consumption estimates are now based on more real world tests. Have you ever come close to getting the kind of fuel consumption estimated for your current vehicle?

If you have to haul, do it in styleDEL MAR, California.It’s a quintessential SoCal (Southern California) morning.The marine layer is in full effect; blocking a would-be gorgeous sunrise. Yet that doesn’t stop avid sports enthusiasts from taking a run along the beach. Or taking to the water for some morning wave action.Nor does it stop couples from walking arm-in-arm, with their hands occupied by their morning coffee, and their midsize breed of pooch following close by. However, something does turn their heads.A host of all-new 2015 midsize trucks have them perplexed. They’ve nev-er seen these kinds of Canyons or Colorados gracing the streets before and wonder what all the commotion is about.Then again, it’s not uncommon to see midsized trucks in this part of the world. In fact, they’re a dime a dozen. Most are outfitted with surf racks, toolboxes or have gear loaded in the bed. They are put to good use.Anita Burke, GM’s chief vehicle engineer of midsize trucks, explained what makes this category of relatively small truck popular. The versatility and usability of these trucks appeal to small business owners, families or even outdoor lovers.

With a 12.5-metre turn-ing radius – which we put to the test when we want to make a U-turn to take some photos – it’s quite impressive. Furthermore, it’s the all-in-one midsize truck without compromise. It has the segment’s best horsepower thanks to two great engines. The first being a 2.5L, 4-cylinder with 200 hp and 191 lb-ft of torque, the next being a 3.6L, V6 with 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. Both engines are paired to

a 6-speed automatic transmission; a 6-speed manual is available on select extended cab 2WD modelsCome 2015, a 2.8L Duramax Turbo-Die-sel is scheduled to join in the engine lineup.Want to tow a couple of dirt bikes, or mount a couple of kayaks on the rear? Sure! Not a problem. As I drove through Del Mar with a trailer hitched to the back that carried two incredibly clean dirt bikes, I barely felt they were there. The V6-endowed Chevy Colorado (or GMC Canyon) tows up to 3,175 kg (7,000 lbs.) with the trailering package, so it has ample oomph to get it up some tough grades without breaking a sweat.When you want to access the bed – regardless of trim – they all come with

a standard CornerStep rear bumper. You’ll also find 13 standard tie-down locations throughout the bed that you can use with available, movable cargo tie-down rings.Furthermore, the 2015 Colorado’s con-figurations are available in an extended cab model with a 6-foot bed, a crew cab with a 5-foot bed and a crew cab with a 6-foot bed. With the tailgate down, the 6-foot bed allows hauling of 8-foot-long items.Even though both trucks are built on GM’s Global mid-size truck platform, they are targeted at two different buyers.The GMC Canyon has more upscale features and a lavish cabin – some-thing I wouldn’t have said before when it comes to midsize trucks – while the Colorado is more utilitarian in nature. No matter how you slice it, both of these trucks have impressive features.One is its quietness. Whether driving

the four or six-cylinder variants, no rattles, bangs or buzzing were heard. I actually couldn’t believe my ears as to how serene the cabin was. I guess the triple door seals are doing their job and doing it well.The transmission had a smoothness to it and the 8-inch touchscreen featuring Text Messaging Alerts and Siri Eyes Free are a bonus.If you’re just hauling yourself, or a pair of jet skis around back, the GMC Canyon and Chevrolet Colorado can do the job. And they do it very well. Pricing for the Chevrolet Colorado starts at an MSRP of $19,900 for the four-cylinder with the extended cab. The GMC Canyon has a starting MSRP of $20,600 (both exclude a destination charge of $1,695).

Charlotte, NC – The launch for the heavily updated Toyota Camry took place here in the heart of NASCAR country.Along the drive route, there were several NASCAR stops, one at the Hall of Fame, and another at Joe Gibbs Racing and a third at the Charlotte Motor Speedway. This was all to emphasize just how American the Camry has become. The chief engineer of the 2015 Camry is from Michi-gan, not Japan, as was the case with the rest of the crew that

updated over 2000 parts on this latest sedan. The car is Toyota’s cornerstone in the United States, thanks in part to the association the brand and the car has with the immensely popular NASCAR series and the long reputation it has for reliability and value. It is the most popular passenger car in North America and number one in the United States. However, that is not the case in Canada, where it lies third in the Toyota lineup behind the Corolla and RAV4.LooksWhen a car is typically refreshed,

the designers add a new front bumper, grille headlights and rear taillights and call it a day. Not the case here, the 2015 Toyota Camry has all-new sheet metal, providing a sleeker and more eye-catching design. The wheelbase remains the same length but the track, side-to-side has been widened for more stability. The overall length is only slightly longer, in the nose, to help achieve the more polished look. The interesting thing is this new more youthful design actually makes the car look smaller, mostly due to the less slab-sided look

used in the previous car and the tightly wrapped lines and shapes. This is now a very nice looking car but from about fifty paces the new Camry looks very similar to the new Corolla, which was refreshed last year and is selling very well. There is a new trim level in the Camry lineup, the XSE, sportier looking trim that enabled Toyota to lower the price of the, still sporty, SE trim by $2,000 to $24,990. In addition the SE trim has been added to the Hybrid model, enabling buyers of that efficient car to also enjoy a more

distinctive design. InsideInside, the refresh focuses more on ease of use and refined materials. The top of the dash is the only carry-over part, which is still a soft touch material with French stitching. What has been added is faux suede on the doors with the ability to get two-tone seats in the Camry, also with faux suede, but the updated seats are only in the new XSE trim. The centre stack now has bigger buttons and

rotary dials for ease of use, a welcome up-date for older buyers. To appeal to younger intenders, the Camry has the latest connec-tivity and on the top XLE models a wireless charging system in the centre cubby but the phone either needs a special sleeve or inte-grated wireless charging technology. Plus, there is a new screen between the speedo and tachometer for a quick reference of the radio, navigation or phone calls. These are all welcome updates but the major competitor for this car is the Honda Accord and the interior on that car is much more upscale and technologically advanced, with two screens and a higher end feel.DriveNot just happy to make a more appealing looking car, the engineers also went about improving the ride, handling and noise inside the car. The track of the wheels has been widened and the lower end models also get wider wheels for improved feed-back but the biggest change is to the steer-ing feel. The Camry is equipped with electric power steering and these systems have been notorious for poor feedback to the driver. This new 2015 Camry is a big step foreword. Straight-line stability has been improved and the car, with a more rigid platform and slightly stiffer springs and shocks, is now sending good feedback to the driver. To highlight this, a stock off-the-

showroom 2015 Camry, with regular tires was used at the Charlotte Motor Speedway for hot laps. With a pro NASCAR driver at the wheel, this new sedan easily navigated around the oval at speeds over 200 km/h. No fuss, no problem. Not something anyone in a road-going Camry will experience but a good demonstration.VerdictWhat haven’t been updated are the engine and transmission choices. The same 178hp 2.5L 4-cylinder with a 6-speed automatic does duty along with an optional 3.5L V6 putting out 268hp. Yes, this is known equip-ment and these engines have a proven record but with Honda and other providing direct injection engines and new slick trans-missions, it might be safe to go with “tried and true” but at some point these engines will require upgrades or replacements. As it stands, this is much more than a regular mid-cycle facelift. The 2015 Camry looks much better, drives with more confidence and has a pleasant interior. With the help of NASCAR, the Camry will remain a North American staple, this time with a lot more [email protected]
