Cedar Street resident ‘sick and tired’ of dumpster issues next door

Lodovico Fruscalzo is upset at the lack of garbage pickup at the four-plex next door to his Cedar Street home.Continued on Pg. 2

Mike DaviesCampbell RiveR miRRoR

Retired millworker Lodovico Fruscalzo tries to keep his property on Cedar Street clean and respect-able, and he wishes the rest of the neighbourhood would do the same.

“I’m sick and tired of it,” Fruscalzo says in his heavy Italian accent as he stood on the side of Cedar Street last week in his mask and high-vis vest. The dumpster on the property of the four-plex behind him was overflow-ing, surrounded by full bags and other items that clearly wouldn’t even stay on the top of the pile even if someone had attempted to put them there.

He says it’s been like that, “for weeks,” and that it happens, “all the time.”

Searra McLeod, a resident of the four-plex, confirms Fruscalzo’s claim.

“It has been like that for a long time,” she agrees. “I talked to him (the landlord) last week about it, and he said it was supposed to have been taken away,” she says, peering around the corner at the dumpster. “Obviously it hasn’t.”

Fruscalzo doesn’t understand why the city doesn’t put its metaphorical foot down on people who don’t keep up their property. He says he’s been fighting with the city for years about this issue, and keeps being told it’s not their jurisdiction.

River, says once they were made aware of the situation with the state of the bin, he attended the scene personally.

“It was like nothing I’ve ever seen in the past,” he says. “It was….” he pauses, trying to find the right words, “It was really something else.”

D u m p s t e r s m u s t be emptied at least weekly in order to com-ply with city bylaws, Read says, and they do

have means at their dis-posal to ensure compli-ance with those bylaws, including fines for what he calls, “habitual sce-narios.”

So he contacted the property owner, who lives in Victoria, to see what was going on.

“He told me he’d been actively trying to get the disposal company to come take it, but was unsuccessful at mak-ing that happen. Once I contacted him he made

a more concerted effort and took action very quickly to remedy the situation.”

Fruscalzo confirms that the dumpster in question was emptied a few days after he spoke to the Mirror, but he isn’t getting his hopes up that it will stay that way for long or that it will be emptied again before it gets back to the state it was in last week.

But Read says enforce-ment officers will be

keeping their eye on it.“I’m told that this par-

ticular situation was an ‘evicted tenant’ scenario,” Read says, “which filled the bin in short order in this specific case, but the owner has been made aware that what it turned into was not acceptable.”

There are a few prop-erties in Campbell River that they actively watch for these types of infrac-tions, Read says, but they can’t be everywhere all the time, so they rely on people to inform them of infractions before they can act, in most cases.

So if you see a problem like this, Read says, they want to hear from you so they can look into it.

Bylaw enforcement can be reached at 250-286-5776.

The part of Fruscalzo’s complaint they don’t have jurisdiction over is the location of the bin on the property.

“For 40 years,” Frus-calzo says, “ it was around the other side of the building in the back alley where the rest of the bins are for the rest of the buildings around here, but for some rea-son they moved it over here by the street. That’s not where it belongs, is it? Right out by a four-way stop across from a school?”

He says he intention-ally had his house built – back in the 1970s – on the front of the property to be as far from the alley, “where garbage belongs,” as possible.

But now, especially in the summer, he can’t even open his windows, because of both the smell and the black flies from that bin.

“We can’t start telling people where they have to have their dumpsters on their property,” Read confirms. “So that part of his complaint really is out of our hands.”

Garbage: Call city hall about infractions

On Feb. 12, the Gov-ernments of Canada and British Columbia announced that the Vil-lage of Zeballos has been awarded a 100 per cent funding grant through the Strategic Priorities Initiative with the Gas Tax Fund for the amount

of $2.9 million. The grant funding will

be used to replace the aging Zeballos River crossing bridge.

“The Village and our neighbouring communi-ties are extremely excited and appreciative of this opportunity presented

to us by the Govern-ment of Canada,” Zebal-los Mayor Donnie Cox said. “It allows us not only to replace our aging infrastructure, but also to help us achieve our economic sustainability initiative.

“Our village’s economy,

like so many other small resource centres within Canada, has been devas-tated by low commodity prices and trending over the years.

“These grants are essential to the survival of our rural communi-ties.”

The city is moving to make it easier for the fire department to write up tickets for those who break city bylaws.

At last week’s council meeting, council gave first and second reading to a bylaw amendment that will give more fire-fighters the authority to issue tickets.

Currently, only the city’s fire chief, deputy fire chief and fire inspec-tor can write up tickets for bylaw infractions.

Karl Read, the city’s bylaw enforcement offi-cer, said that adding fire captains to that function will make it easier on the fire department when going through the tick-eting process.

“Fire department staff routinely attend inci-dents at which none of these designates may be present but for which it may be appropriate to issue a ticket for a bylaw contravention,” Read wrote in a report to council. “Fire captains are able to perform that role.”

The fire department has the legal means to write up tickets for things like open burning infrac-tions – which carry fines of up to $10,000 – as well

as for offences related to the city’s fireworks bylaw.

That bylaw makes it illegal to sell fireworks anywhere within the City of Campbell River’s juris-diction and prohibits the use of fireworks without a permit, as well as bans the sale, possession and use of firecrackers.

Anyone who does not comply with those rules can face a fine of not less than $100 and no more than $10,000 or, in extreme cases – impris-onment.

Mayor Andy Adams said that by allowing fire captains to write up tick-ets for such infractions, it will expedite the penalty process.

“It enables the captains who are with their crew

and generally first on the scene in these types of instances, to act on them at the time that the inci-dent is actually happen-ing rather than bringing it back to the department and then having to sub-mit a report and then having that report acted on,” Adams said.

Adams suggested that the move may be a good candidate for the prov-ince’s Reducing Red Tape program which aims to remove barriers and make it easier and faster to deal with gov-ernments.

“Maybe something we’d want to submit as our helping to facilitate and take some of the bureaucracy out,” Adams said.Kristen Douglas

Thursdays and Sat-urdays were the most common days to have an emergency in Campbell River last year.

According to the fire chief ’s annual report, the busiest days for fire-fighters were Thursdays and Saturdays, while the busiest time of day was between 12 and 5 p.m., with calls spiking at 2 p.m.

Firefighters from the downtown f ire hall responded to 388 fire calls last year and 351 non-emergency f ire calls. The Willow Point fire hall attended 124 fire calls and 108 non-emergency fire calls.

Sixty-eight per cent, or 2,033 of the calls firefighters responded to in 2015 were medi-cal incidents while 27 per cent were fires and six per cent were motor vehicle incidents. Emer-gency fire calls were down slightly last year compared to 2014, from 528 calls to 512, while non-emergency fire calls (376 to 459 calls) and medical calls (1,661 calls to 2,033) increased over the previous year.

Fire Chief Ian Bai-kie said overall the fire department is getting busier and busier as the years go by.

“Campbell River Fire Department responded

to 3,004 incidents in 2015 which represents a 17 per cent increase in call volume over 2014 and an average yearly increase in call volume over five years of 10.44 per cent,” Baikie wrote in his report.

At last week’s Tuesday council meeting, Chief Baikie said taxpayers are getting a good invest-ment for their tax dol-lars.

Last year, the city’s combined fire insurance costs and fire protection costs were $9.32 million.

Baikie said that com-munity fire insurance costs without fire pro-

tection would have been $15.18 million.

“If we didn’t have a fire department, we’d pay $7 million more collectively for insurance,” Baikie said.

“Well, that’s a big sav-ings. A good invest-ment,” Coun. Charlie Cornfield said. “Yes it is,” Baikie agreed.

Canada is getting fat.A study by a Memorial University in St. John’s pro-

fessor published in the Canadian Medical Associa-tion Journal found that between 1985 and 2011 the rate of obese Canadians has tripled from six to 18 per cent. By 2019 more than one in five Canadians will be obese.

Measuring obesity — typically done by calculating a ratio of weight to height — is an inexact science. But in general if you are a six-foot person weighing more than 220 pounds you probably qualify. The same applies to a five-foot-four person who tips the scales at more than 175 pounds.

Like cigarettes, obesity is tied to heart disease, stroke, high blood pres-sure and diabetes. Like cigarettes, obesity will eventually kill you. And, like cigarettes, obesity is an issue that can be best addressed by stopping it before it takes hold.

An essential element in achieving that goal is an education campaign that hits Canadians early and often.

Show us the harms caused by obesity. Show us the best ways to combat the disease. Give us easy access to the tools we need to fight it.

Supplement this by adding warning labels on high-calorie, low-nutrition foods, accompanied by a pro-hibitive junk food tax that helps fund our health care system while deterring people from buying those products.

In short, tackle obesity with the same zest and vigour with which we’ve tackled cigarettes.

And then turn things over to our best marketers, who can pose the following question to the next gen-eration:

“If we were to offer you a product that would slow your reflexes, create rolls on your belly, add a few chins, make it harder to find clothes, have you gasp-ing for breath, sap your energy level, cost you thou-sands of dollars a year, and cut your life short, would you be interested?”

The answer should be and would be an unequivo-cal ‘no.’

If we pose the question long enough and loud enough, perhaps it will be.

-Black Press

It’s time to end the obesity epidemic

We say: We need an education campaign that hits hard, often

Waving the flag on a special monthThis week started on a very

patriotic note with National Flag of Canada Day on Feb. 15.

It was really interesting to see so many different Canadian flag-themed images pop up on social media and it made me want to learn more about the flag that is such a huge part of our national identity.

Our national flag was raised for the first time on Parliament Hill on Feb. 15, 1965. Canada was just two years away from centennial celebrations when the maple leaf flag was made official by Royal Proclamation. In 1996, Feb. 15 was declared National Flag of Canada Day, and this has been observed every year since.

“The flag is the symbol of the nation’s unity, for it, beyond any doubt, represents all the citizens of Canada without distinction of race, language, belief or opinion,” the Speaker of the Senate declared at the Inauguration of the new flag in 1965.

And since then, the flag has flown proudly at City Halls, inside hockey arenas and so many other places. It has been worn on the shoulders of our soldiers. It has been worn by

athletes and by travellers and just about anyone who wants to express their pride in our nation.

Being a lover of history and interesting-but-not-necessar-ily-always-helpful facts, I decided to look up National Flag of Canada Day. I was not dis-appointed. Here are some of the things I learned through the Gov-ernment of Can-ada website:

• The Canadian flag is twice as long as it is wide (and these dimen-sions cannot be modified). The white square and its maple leaf make up half the surface of the flag, equal to the two red bars combined.

• Red and white were pro-claimed Canada’s official colours in the proclamation of the Royal Arms of Canada in 1921 by King George V.

• There is such a thing as a flag expert, and he or she is called a vexillologist. Further-more, vexillologists often cite the National Flag of Canada as

one of the world’s most beau-tiful, based on its “compelling design and measured use of colour.”

• In 1964, the federal gov-ernment made the creation

of a distinctive Canadian flag a priority, as the 1967 centennial celebration of Confederat ion was approaching. When Parliament could not reach agreement on the design, the task of finding a national flag was given to an all-party Par-liamentary com-mittee. The com-

mittee recommended the single leaf, red and white design to Parliament, and a motion was passed to adopt this design as the National Flag of Canada with a vote of 163 to 78 on Dec. 15, 1964.

■■■■Speaking of Canadian pride

and patriotism, I personally am really excited for the annual Wounded Warrior Run BC to come through Campbell River later this month.

Six runners are taking part in a relay-style run from Port Hardy to Victoria Feb. 22 to 28. This year’s run includes cur-rently serving Canadian Armed Forces members, reservists, veterans, non-military mem-bers and First Nations.

The run will cover more than 600 kilometres and raise awareness and support for Wounded Warriors Canada, a non-profit organization that helps serving and retired Cana-dian Forces members who have been wounded or injured in their service to Canada. The organization’s primary focus is currently on mental health and the impact of PTSD and Operational Stress Injuries. They’re doing important work that impacts a lot of people.

Wounded Warrior Run BC will arrive in Campbell River Feb. 24 and the night before, Oyster River Fire & Rescue will host a burger and beer fundraiser for the runners. On Tuesday, Feb. 23, there will be two sittings - 6-7 p.m. and 7-8 p.m. - at Salmon Point Restau-rant, and tickets are $20 at the door. To reserve a sitting, call 250-923-7272.

Paul Mason is hoping to hun-dreds of people

wearing bright blue toques walking through downtown Campbell River this Saturday eve-ning.

Why? Because it’s the third annual Coldest Night of the Year fun-draiser, and the more people who take part in the event, the more people who are aware of some of the chal-lenges faced by homeless people in our com-munity.

This 5K or 10K fun walk/run takes place Saturday, Feb. 20 between 4 p.m. and 8 p.m. and raises money for Campbell River Family Services Society, a non-profit, chari-table organization that offers a wide range of programs and services, including support, counselling, education, prevention and crisis intervention.

“We would really like to see people come out,” said Mason, the event organizer. “It is a fun event. The funds raised are important, but the most important thing is it’s a community family event and it’s to raise awareness in our com-munity for our home-

less. There are so many different issues. Number one is lack of affordable housing and we need our sobering assess-ment centre. It’s about the community coming together and it’s a real enjoyable evening.”

The event is family-friendly, and people are invited to bring their kids. The band Inclu-sion, which is made up of clients from Commu-nity Living B.C., will be

performing again this year. Fol-lowing the walk, there will be hot chilli, as well as coffee sup-plied by Starbucks.

“I would love to see 150 to 200 people out

walking the streets with their toques on,” said Mason. “What really has been fantastic the last two years has been it’s been such an enjoyable event. The fundraising is just part of it. It’s been a really happy event.”

The Coldest Night of the Year is a Canada-wide fundraiser for the “hungry, homeless and hurting” that is hosted by non-profit com-munity groups on the same day in more than 100 locations across the country.

“It’s an event that really put Campbell River on the map – to be part of an event that is Canada-wide, from one coast to another, is a

great thing for Campbell River,” said Mason.

On Saturday (Feb. 20), registration opens at 4 p.m. at the Camp-bell River Community Centre at 401 11th Ave., and the walk begins and ends at the Community Centre. All walkers must check in and sign a waiver form before par-ticipating.

Walkers can register online as an individual or join an existing team or create their own team, or they can reg-ister in-person at the Community Centre.

It costs $25 to register, and adults who raise $150 or youth (aged 10 to 17) who raise $75 do not have to pay the reg-istration fee.

The opening ceremo-nies will be at 5 p.m., and the walk will begin at 5:15 p.m.

Registration closes at 6 p.m., and the route closes at 8 p.m.

Between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m., a warm chilli meal will be served to all walkers and volun-teers at the Community Centre.

Mason says volun-teers are still needed for the event, and anyone interested in volunteer-ing can register online for that as well. People are needed to help with road marshalling, greet-ing, directing partici-pants to the registration

desk, helping with the food and just being there to help with any-thing else that’s needed.

“It’s very, very simple to register as a walker or to register as a volun-teer,” he said.

Mason says that right now, they still need the ingredients for the chilli, and if there are any supermarkets that are willing to donate ingredients, they would be very grateful.

To learn more about the Coldest Night of the Year or to register online, visit coldest-nightoftheyear.org

DAILY DRAWS for VOUCHERS & KITS

Campbell River Cham-ber’s FUTURE 15 event on Friday (Feb. 19) at the Maritime Heritage Centre profiles 52 nomi-nees – 15 of whom will be awarded the inaugural Future 15 award.

The nominees rep-resent a diverse group of local individuals across broad sectors, all between the ages of 19 and 45. They are doctors, scientists, entrepreneurs, philanthropists, artists, social innovators and creators nominated for the good work they are doing in their workplace and community.

“This event and nomi-nation process was in response to the Cham-ber’s commitment to build a positive climate for businesses to pros-per in, a commitment to attract and retain young professionals in

our community and an opportunity to further engage young profes-sionals in shaping the future of Campbell River,” said Chamber President Colleen Evans. “The event will provide a social opportunity for exceptional young pro-fessionals and leaders in our community to connect and meet, who might not otherwise know each other.

“The nominees are from very diverse back-ground and networks; so bringing everyone together on event night, our hope is that new connections and oppor-tunities for collaboration will be made, comments Evans.”

“We see the Cham-ber being a catalyst for positive and progressive leadership”, said Cham-ber Board Chair, Corby

Lamb. “Local businesses are dependent on a healthy vibrant busi-ness community and our Chamber works tirelessly to that end.”

The award recipients will be invited by the Chamber as FUTURE 15 alum, to continue to shape the future of Campbell River by engaging on important initiatives and ideas around social innova-tion, social enterprise, philanthropy, business and economic develop-ment.

Nominees are making a positive difference in Campbell River through their professional and personal growth, com-munity service and lead-ership. Nominees were asked if they thought their workplace was a next generation best place to work and what their employer’s commit-ment was to support the development of young professionals.

“It’s great to see so many local workplaces creating a culture of sup-port for attracting and retaining young profes-sionals,” said Chamber Board Chair, Corby Lamb.”

One of the most inspir-ing responses to a nomi-nation question was in their collective visions for the future of Camp-bell River. The Chamber will be sharing those visions through social media and community engagement opportuni-ties over the next month.

According to Evans, the future is now for the nominees. They see the direct link to future success from what they are doing right now to influence the climate that they want to raise their families in, develop a career in and enjoy a high quality of life in Campbell River.

“We value and sup-port the important role each of them is taking to improve our quality of life and for their com-mitment to Campbell River,” said Evans.

A complete list of nominees, tickets to the FUTURE 15 event and further information is available at www.camp-bellriverchamber.ca

The FUTURE 15 event is presented by the Chamber in partner-ship with lead sponsors, Canadian Western Bank and Campbell River Mir-ror and support from 2DayFM and Chameleon Creative.

SRD committee hopes to improve relations with First Nations Fill Please

KRISTEN DOUGLASCAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Despite being accused of bias, the chair of the Strathcona Regional Dis-trict board has managed to get direc-tors to have a change of heart on form-ing a committee to improve relations with First Nations.

The board had previously voted to put off the initiative until its strategic planning meeting but at the regular board meeting last Wednesday, board Chair John MacDonald brought the item back for reconsideration.

He said he felt the decision to delay the committee until strategic planning had been made without consideration of some “key facts” and that some directors had mistakingly believed the committee would get involved in treaty negotiations rather than its real pur-pose of bettering relationships.

“It’s mandate would be confined to doing research on behalf of the board, and recommending ways and means for the regional district to advance its interests in this area,” MacDonald said.

But Area A Director Gerald Whalley had concerns that MacDonald had his own agenda in bringing it back.

“I would prefer an item of this nature be brought forward by a director,” Whalley said, adding that the report “gives the appearance of a bias.”

Whalley added that he would “hate to see this become precedent or stan-dard procedure, that the chair brings forward his own personal agendas.”

Tahsis Director Jude Schooner said she felt MacDonald was only trying to advance a strategic priority that the entire board shares.

“In my opinion the time to go for-ward is now,” Schooner said. “I think it’s a shared priority by the board and not just a couple of directors.”

But Whalley said his relationship with the First Nations in his electoral area are progressing the way he wants it to and said he would hate to see a com-mittee come in and change things.

“I don’t want any risk of anybody screwing that up,” Whalley said. “It (the

committee) won’t speak on my behalf.”Area C Director Jim Abram expressed

the same concerns.“I don’t care one way or the other at

this point if we form a committee or not, it’s window dressing, it’s not neces-sary,” he said.

“I’m working on First Nations rela-tions daily, by way of contracts, work-ing together, and getting things done in Area C. And if this committee thinks that it’s going to have any kind of input or change in that system, think again please.”

Draft terms of reference for the com-mittee state that its mandate would be to research how the regional district and other governments are trying to improve their relationships with First Nations; to prepare an inventory of all First Nations located within the regional district; and to investigate the status of each First Nation with respect to treaty negotiations.

As a select committee, just five of the 13 board members are to sit on the committee, and MacDonald, in his motion to reconsider the committee put forward directors Noba Anderson, Julie Colborne, Charlie Cornfield, Ron Kerr and Schooner as members.

That didn’t sit well with Area D Director Brenda Leigh.

“It’s either going to be the whole board or no one because it’s not right that you take a select few from this board that are going to hear what is being presented to them and then regurgitate it to us,” Leigh said. “I do not trust putting it in the hands of just a few. If the chair would be open and fair about it, he would say the whole board needs to move forward with that strategic priority.”

Kerr agreed that instead of a small group of people, it should be the entire board but Anderson pointed out that with a board as large as the regional district’s it would be “cumbersome” to dig into the issues.

In the end, after nearly half an hour of debate, the board agreed to form the First Nations committee and have just the five directors sit on it.

The Irish Rovers have been touring for over 50 years selling out concerts worldwide and garnering rave reviews as they go.

On March 18, the Irish Rovers will appear at the Tidemark Theatre at 7:30 p.m.

Over the years, they’ve filmed three television series, which enter-tained Canadians and international audiences throughout the 1970’s and ‘80’s.

Vancouver producer Ken Gibson was the producer responsible for the award-winning shows, which on occa-sion, could even beat out Hockey Night in Canada - a nearly impossible feat.

Since leaving the tele-vision studios of Van-couver, the band lost touch with many of their

local fans but the Celtic super-group were able to travel the world as musi-cal ambassadors taking them as far as the Arctic Circle, Japan, and Ger-many, with regular tours to Australia, New Zea-land, and the US.

“This year is ideal for us to finally say one last goodbye to every-one,” says Rovers leader, George Millar. “Nice to be able to share our 50th Anniversary with our old friends. Believe me, there were times I didn’t think we’d make it to 50, so I’ll be damned if we don’t make the most of it.”

The band was founded in Canada in Toronto but first became known on American television in the 60s. As guests on The Tonight Show, The Smothers Brothers Show,

Mike Douglas Show, The Virginian, The Dating Game (George Millar actually won the date), they gained experience before hosting three international television series “The Irish Rovers Show”, “Party with The Rovers” and “The Rovers Comedy House” for CBC and Global Television throughout the 70s and 80s. At that time, fans enjoyed their early hits like Black Velvet Band, The Unicorn, Whisky on a Sunday and Wasn’t That A Party. These days, the Rovers are back on the radio, have released 3 television specials in the last few years, and gone viral on YouTube with their recording of Drunken Sailor!

“The Irish Rovers, 50th Anniversary Special” is

now broadcasting on Shaw TV VideoOnDe-mand – Tune in for more on the band’s history and music.

On tour, the band will be releasing “50th Anni-versary, LIVE on St. Pat-rick’s Day” DVD, plus bringing their ultimate music product “The Irish Rovers, 50 Years” 3 CD set – the best music of The Rovers legendary career, and their brand new Children’s album, “Songs for the Wee Folk” – all available at the con-cert.

Tickets for the March 18 Tidemark Theatre performance are $48.50 and are available at the theatre box office or online at tidemarkthe-atre.com.

Artist Trading Card event set for Thursday, Feb. 18 at the Campbell River Art Gallery

Artists of all ages who would like to create and trade miniature works of art are invited to attend the next Artist Trading Card event at the Campbell River Art Gallery, tomorrow at 7 p.m.

This is a fun, social and creative program that meets four times a year to swap trading cards.

The only difference between these and sports trading cards is that you create your own homemade 2 ½ x 3 ½ inch trading card like a miniature work of art.

Bring 15-20 art cards to trade. New

faces are always welcome. Cards should be 2.5 inches x 3.5 inches exactly so they fit in the sleeves that are used for saving baseball cards. The theme is open. Bring original cards, not photocopies.

The cards are miniature works of art and are meant to be traded, not bought or sold. Your cards can be painted, collaged, mixed media, photographs, three dimensional shapes, or found objects.

It’s up to you where your creativity leads you. Sign the back as you would any art work and add your contact information if you wish.

The Gallery is located at 1235 Shoppers Row. For more info call 250-287-2261 or email [email protected].

We are sad to announce the passing of Dennis Herbert Brown on February 7, 2016 at Campbell River Hospital.

He was predeceased by his parents Donald Herbert & Coral Nesta Brown and brother-in-law William Williams. He is survived by his sister Mary Robin Williams and brother Clifford John Brown (Margaret); nieces Mary Ellen Schulz (Ronald), Coral Ann Desjardins (Alan) Kerry Patricia Enns (Timothy); nephews - Jon Edward Williams, Wesley & Max Terpstra and David Brown, great-nieces & great-nephews Dana, Katie, Joshua, William and Mary.

In Dennis’ leisure time, he liked traveling, fishing and camping. Picking mushrooms and Salal. He used the money he made to travel to the casinos in Reno or Tulalip. He lived in Prince Rupert in 1940 when his father was stationed there, then they moved to Dashwood (Qualicum) in 1942. He then moved to Zeballos in 1947 when his mother, a nurse, took a position in the hospital. Dennis also lived on Saltspring Island for a while before moving to Nanaimo.

He joined BC Tel in the mid 1950’s and worked in Nanaimo, Alberni, Ucluelet and Clearwater, where he retired from BC Tel after 30 years of service. He was an active member of the Lions Club for many years as well as an Honorary Life Member with the Telecommunications Workers Union.

He bought the Homestead Cafe in Clearwater while he was still with the telephone company, later selling it to move to Campbell River in 1991. He lived at his sister’s place in a 5th wheel travel trailer for a number of years before moving into an apartment in Campbell River where he lived for the past 2 years.

Flowers gratefully declined. Donations in Dennis’ memory may be made to the Leukemia, Diabetes or Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Foundations.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.

Predeceased by wife Margaret Lois, eldest son Larry, daughter-in-law Pat, granddaughters Dana and Erin, as well as his parents and 9 siblings. Karl lived a long full life of 96 years that involved one adventure after another starting at age 11, when his family ventured from Norway to come to Canada. Karl spent his entire life living the west coast way; logging and fishing are how he provided for his wife of over 60 years, Margaret, and his 3 children: Larry (Patricia), Clay (Tracey) and his only daughter Deborah (John). Karl was a loving grandfather to Dana (late), Lara and Erin (late), Sheryl Miller, Allan Miller, Jilan Davidsen, Kassidy Davidsen and Brayden Davidsen, great-grandfather to Kacee and Neveah Stranaghan and Dani Lynn Pimlott.

He was an accomplished scout, and fi restarter (he could make a fi re in the pouring rain). His loving nature came through in his relationships with his family, friends, and his pets. He will be sorely missed by all who knew Jarvis. His memory of his gentle ways, and beautiful smile will live forever strong in our hearts.Predeceased by his grandmother Jean Simon, Sydney, NS. Survived by his loving parents James and Tammy, and Darlene and John, his siblings, Chester, Becky, Benjamin, Ruel-Dawn and Jade. His loving grandparents Billie and Josie.

Keep it out of the landfill – Visit the Giant Indoor Garage Sale and Repair Café

Vendors and repair people are coming together to keep items out of the landfill and raise money for 50+ Active

Living programs. On Saturday, Feb. 20,

between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. at the Campbell River Community Centre, admission is free to shop for gently used household items at the Giant Indoor Garage sale, or make broken items functional again at the Repair Cafe.

Repair Cafe is a worldwide initiative started in Amsterdam

in 2009 to encourage people to repair their broken things, and learn some practical skills. In the seven years since the first event took place, 750 cafes have taken place across 18 countries.

“Bringing together the Giant Indoor Garage Sale and the Repair Café is a fun way to keep things out of the landfill, and it will help

people save money. Both events align with the City’s sustainability work. Whether you’re looking for an item or want to fix one, a visit to the Community Centre will get you what you need,” said Linda Nagle, program coordinator with the City’s recreation and culture department. “If you have a broken bike, busted appliance, or a torn sweater that you have no idea how to fix, rather than tossing it, visit the Repair Café, and learn how to fix it. If you can carry it, we can likely fix it.”

Money raised through the rental of vendor spaces at the Giant Indoor Garage Sale will go towards 50+ Active Living programming. Table rentals are sold out.

For information, call 250-923-7911, or check out the Repair Café and Giant Indoor Garage Sale Events on Campbell River Recreation’s Facebook page.
