Candles, solar lights, flowers, a hunting T-shirt and two simple crosses mark the spot where two young men died early Saturday morning.
The black letters “CJ” are written on one cross for 21-year-old Chris-topher Joseph McAuliffe who was a passenger in the rollover crash.
The other cross is for “Jordan,” the 20-year-old driver of the 1997 Chev-rolet pickup.
According to Campbell River RCMP, it is believed both men were not wearing seatbelts when the truck left the road and rolled sometime before 2 a.m.
When officers arrived, they found the truck on its side and the two men deceased at the crash site.
Investigators continue to examine whether alcohol or speed were con-tributing factors in the crash.
A celebration of life service for McAuliffe takes place this Saturday, 1 p.m., at the Campbell River Curl-ing Club.

Construction is well underway on the city’s downtown revitalization project.
Motor is t s dr iv ing down Shoppers Row and Alder Street can get a glimpse of chewed up St. Ann’s Road, being dug up to make way for improved underground infrastructure.
To accommodate the project, traffic is being detoured off of St. Ann’s via Alder Street, down to 10th Avenue and back onto Shoppers Row where there is now a temporary, makeshift four-way stop at the intersection of Shoppers Row, Tyee Plaza and 10th Avenue.
Dubeau Street will also be closed off to traffic between St. Ann’s and Beech Street with detours via St. Ann’s Road and Beech Street.
The St. Ann’s and Dubeau street closures will be in effect through July and August.
Come September, the fall phase of the proj-ect is expected to begin and Alder Street will be closed off from Beech to 10th Avenue with detours via Beech and
Dubeau. Alder will then be
closed between Beech and St. Ann’s with detours via St. Ann’s and the north end of Alder and Beech Street will be closed to all traf-fic between Alder and Dubeau streets with detours via the Dubeau alley and Alder.
Mayor Walter Jake-way acknowledged that the detours would be an inconvenience to busi-nesses around the con-struction zone but said in the long-term the sac-rifices would pay off.
“We’re very aware that this underground work will be an inconvenience to our neighbourhood this summer – traffic will be interrupted and there will be surprises when you’re re-building an aging infrastructure like we have here,” Jakeway said. “As we start con-struction of the St. Ann’s project we anticipate that this upgrade will provide a broad, positive impact for our downtown eco-nomic development plans. The underground upgrades will serve our entire community well into the future. As well, the landscaping and park areas will create a safer, more enhanced
traffic flow for pedestri-ans, cyclists, and vehicles alike to create a destina-tion place where people can come to congregate.”
The $4.05 million proj-ect involves a full recon-struction of the under-ground sewer, water and storm drainage systems as well as landscaping improvements above ground to create a more walkable, pedestrian-friendly gathering space.
The project is taking place at the same time as the construction of Sey-mour Pacific’s new office building which takes up an entire lot bordering St. Ann’s, Alder, Dubeau and Beech streets.
Ryan Phillips, the chair of the Downtown BIA (Business Improvement Association) said dur-ing the project’s ground breaking July 3 that the project is vital to the city.
“We must focus our efforts on the downtown because it’s the heart of our city,” Phillips said. “Downtown is a symbol of partnership between the public and private sector and a symbol of pride in our community. It’s great to see this com-mitment to our down-town.
“This is an exciting time for Campbell River.”

Fearing a percep-tion of bias towards the applicant, regional dis-trict directors took the unusual step of remov-ing the chair from an upcoming public hear-ing.
Are a D Dire c tor Brenda Leigh made a motion to replace Cortes Director Noba Anderson as chair of a public hear-ing for the Klahoose First Nation’s application to re-zone land in Squirrel Cove to accommodate a proposed marina.
Directors were con-cerned that because of recent statements made by Anderson in favour of the Klahoose, some
may perceive the pub-lic hearing process as unfairly biasd towards the Klahoose. So direc-tors agreed to alter what had been approved by the board in May and have Director Jim Abram replace Anderson as chair but have Leigh remain as vice-chair.
“Basically, it’s because of some of the discus-sions taking place in the communities by e-mail and otherwise,” Abram said in response to Director Mary Storry’s question of why Abram would want to take the “highly unusual” step of changing the chair. “I guess the process of the public hearing and in order to keep the pro-cedure as innocuous as
possible, this suggestion came up.”
It’s no secret that Anderson has been vocal in her support for the Klahoose since regional directors voted to decline the Klahoose’s invitation to hold the public hear-ing at its multi-purpose centre and instead host the meeting at what directors thought to be a neutral location – the Gorge Hall.
Anderson was con-cerned about the fallout from that decision and the effect it would have on Cortes Islanders’ rela-tionship with the Kla-hoose.
Anderson tried to change the location of the meeting to the Kla-hoose multi-purpose
centre at the board’s meeting in late June but her motion was defeated.
Anderson expressed her dismay at that deci-sion in a newsletter to her constituents.
“Klahoose Chief James Delorme and Coun. Kathy Frances attended the June 12 SRD (Strath-cona Regional District) board meeting in per-son to request that the public hearing location be changed to the Kla-hoose Hall,” Anderson wrote. “This request was denied. My position, as the Cortes director, was also clear in supporting this request.
“We must also look forward to the new era we are entering and lis-ten, really listen to the
requests of our neigh-bouring First Nation governments. Accom-modation and reconcili-ation will mean that we will need to grow and change.
“I carried on (at the last board meeting) by saying that the simple location of this public hearing is symbolic of so much more. It is the will of Cortes, Klahoose and me as their repre-sentative that this hear-ing be held where it is most accessible to the people most affected by this application, Squirrel
Cove residents and the Klahoose people.”
Directors voted to hold the meeting away from Klahoose territory so as not to appear biased towards the applicant and in response to people who wrote to directors expressing intimidation at speaking out against the marina proposal in the applicant’s commu-nity.
The public hearing will give the public a chance to voice their opinions on the applica-tion to re-zone property in Squirrel Cove to allow
for the construction of a 69-berth, 46 single point mooring marina with a fuel dock, waste pump-out facility, power and water provision, a laundry, and float plane and water taxi docks. The application also involved the relocation of a 3.2-hectare shellfish tenure.
Directors will listen to submissions at the pub-lic hearing, which takes place July 24 at 1 p.m. at the Gorge Hall, and then make a decision on the re-zoning application at a board meeting in August.

Trish Lafrance will never forget her first Musical Ride.
“My very first show
was in Switzerland,” she recalls. “I remember the plane landing in Zurich and then bringing in the horses. It was surreal.”
Cpl. Lafrance spent three years with the
Musical Ride, mainly touring Canada and the U.S. She’s now stationed in Campbell River where she works as a forensic identification specialist, but now that the Musi-cal Ride is coming here next month, some good old memories are com-ing back.
“We toured the south-east United States and these people in Texas couldn’t believe we were police officers and not actors,” she says with a laugh.
The RCMP Musical Ride takes place Aug. 10-11 at the Campbell River Trail Riders facil-ity on General Hill. The day before, a few officers and their mounts will be at Nunns Creek Park to sign autographs and pose for photos at the annual Logger Sports.
Campbell River’s Can-ada Day Committee is volunteering to organize the ride with all proceeds benefiting police-themed charities. Ticket sales will go to Campbell River Crime Stoppers while all food sale profits will ben-efit Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock which comes
through Campbell River on Sept. 24.
Crime Stoppers will also receive the proceeds from the publicity rights to the 36 horses that take part in the Musical Ride. For $150 a sponsor gets to care and groom their horse, and to hang a sponsor sign on the front of the stall.
“You can brush them and take care of them, and all the proceeds go to Crime Stoppers,” said Carol Chapman of the Canada Day Committee. “And it’s all taking place here, at the Campbell River Trail Riders facil-ity – truly one of the fin-est stops on Vancouver Island.”
Ticketsn The show starts at 7
p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 10, and at 1:30 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 11.n Tickets are $10, $6
for youth and free to three and under. Advance tickets are available at A Cut Above, Island Fever Travel, Visitor Info Centre, Campbell River RCMP detachment and from the Campbell River Trail riders.

The bulk of the con-s t r u c t i on on R o d Brind’Amour Arena is complete and ice is expected to go in next month.
New dasher boards have been put up around the rink, new concrete has been poured and cured and construction crews finished install-ing the glass along the boards on Friday.
Lorne Parker, opera-tions manager at Strath-cona Gardens, said all that’s left to do now are the minor details, such as putting in specialized pieces of glass to fit into the small gaps around the corners.
“We’re just into the detailed stuff now,” Parker said.
“We have a couple of pieces of custom-made glass coming up next week. We’re hoping it’ll be finished next week and then we’ll just have clean-up and commis-sioning.”
Starting August 9, staff at the Gardens will begin
the process of cooling the floor to make way for the ice. Because it’s brand-new concrete, it will take 10 days to com-pletely cool.
After that, it will be another week starting August 19 to make the ice. That takes staff up to August 26, which is the targeted date for project completion and the date the first user group has the ice booked.
Pa r k e r s a i d t h e $1 .1 mi l l ion proj-ect to upgrade Rod Brind’Amour Arena, which was built in the early 1970s, has gone fairly smoothly. The project has stayed on time and on budget.
“It’s been relatively smooth,” Parker said. “We haven’t had any major problems, which when you’re dealing with a 40-year-old building, sometimes you run into things, but this one’s been relatively smooth.”
Part of the reason for that was construction crews didn’t have to start from scratch.
As it turned out, the old concrete slab was sal-
vageable, despite a large crack down the middle of the surface.
The new concrete was able to be poured directly over top of the original, saving time and money.
It also solved the crack which was putting stress on the brine lines (which cool the floor) under-neath the concrete and eventually it would have split the brine lines and it would be impossible to
make ice.The repairs also pro-
vided the Strathcona Gardens staff with an
opportunity to make the arena more accessible.
The f loor is now flat from the south entrance all the way up to the staircase up to the bleachers and there is a ramp at the door
The floor had to be raised to match the new height of the playing sur-face, which was raised when the new concrete was poured over top of the old surface.
Another change is the dasher boards, which were shortened from 50 inches to 42 inches, to meet NHL (National Hockey League) regula-tions.
“They’ll (the players) probably notice a dif-ferent reaction when shooting the puck off the boards,” Parker said. “These are made of metal and board. The other ones were all wood.
“It’s more of a standard arena (now) than a 1970s arena.”

In light of recent events at Strathcona Regional District board meet-ings, one director sug-gested the board attend a workshop to get a better understanding of aborig-inal culture.
Relations between the Klahoose First Nation and Cortes Islanders have been put under the microscope since the regional district board chose to decline the Kla-hoose’s invitation to hold a public meeting for the First Nation’s proposed marina project at the Klahoose’s multi-pur-pose centre.
Cortes Director Noba Anderson suggested that the board attend a work-shop, Building Bridges Through Understanding the Village, put on by Kathi Camilleri.
“This is in part due to the fallout from a board decision,” Anderson said at the July 10 board meeting but added the workshop would not deal with the public hearing.
“It’s simply about building bridges with the Cortes community. It was propelled perhaps by recent events but in no way specific to that. This is a standard workshop Kathi Camilleri has cre-ated.”
The workshop is a
healing program that aims to educate partici-pants on Canada’s policy of assimilation and First Nations history, culture and traditions.
But Quadra Island Director Jim Abram was concerned that direc-tors, by attending the workshop, could be vio-lating the rules of local government that pro-hibit elected officials from receiving any new information relating to a bylaw after a public hearing and before it has received third reading and adoption.
“The legal information we’ve received is that until you have adopted the bylaw, you should
refrain from any discus-sion to do with it,” Abram said.
But Anderson said the workshop, which is expected to go ahead Aug. 9 and is open to the public, is unrelated to the public hearing.
“It certainly never occurred to me that there was any connection between this and (the) bylaw,” Anderson said.
Directors asked Act-ing Chief Administrative Officer Tom Yates for advice, who said he did not foresee any problems.
“I don’t think a director attending this workshop would jeopardize the public hearing process,” Yates said. “My under-
standing in reading this was it’s not related to that per se. It’s about ways of restoring and bringing cultural understanding, that type of thing.”
Director and Campbell River City Coun. Mary Storry agreed with Yates.
“We have a director that’s asking for some help,” Storry said. “I don’t think she’s (Camilleri) going to wade into that bylaw. I don’t think it will even come close to what she’s discussing. I really think it’s two different things and I really think it’s the least we could do.”
Still, Abram said it wasn’t Camilleri he was concerned about.
“I absolutely agree
Kathi Camilleri will not bring this up, but that’s not to say someone from the audience won’t bring it up and there it is – that’s input,” Abram said. “I would hate like heck to go through this process we’ve gone through these past few months and jeopardize (the marina proposal) with this feel-good workshop when we can do it a month or two later.”
As a compromise, Storry made a motion that the regional district spend $1,200 to bring Camilleri to Cortes to host the Building Bridges workshop but that the four electoral direc-tors (Anderson, Abram,
Brenda Leigh and Ger-ald Whalley), who will vote on the Klahoose proposal, only be allowed to attend the workshop if the bylaw for the marina is completed before the meeting.
The public hearing into the Klahoose’s marina project is scheduled for July 24 at 1 p.m. at the Gorge Hall on Cortes.
After that, the bylaw would sti l l need to receive third reading and adoption which could potentially happen at the Aug. 7 regional district board meeting, which would allow electoral directors to attend the Aug. 9 Building Bridges workshop.
Chair of public hearing removed to avoid bias
An article titled ‘100 per cent tax exemption proposed for down-town’ that appeared in the Wed., July 10 edition of the Mirror should be clarified in order to get a better understanding of how the changes to the city’s downtown tax exemption bylaw, which council is considering, will work.
T h e c h ange s are focused around two downtown areas: a gen-eral taxation area and a Special Commercial Area.
The general taxation exemption area runs from near 6th Avenue to the south to Robert’s Reach to the north in between Highway 19A and Dogwood Street.
The Special Commercial Area captures the area in and around the St. Ann’s block which includes a portion of Alder Street, Dubeau and B eech streets, where the down-town revitalization proj-ect is currently underway.
In the general area, the changes would bump commercial develop-ments up to a tax exemp-
tion of 100 per cent over five years, up from 50 per cent over three years, which would put com-mercial developments in line with multi-family developments.
In the Special Com-mercial Area, the only changes would be to bump LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environ-mental Design) standard
gold or platinum residen-tial or commercial proj-ects up to a 100 per cent, seven-year tax exemp-tion, up from the current five-year tax break.
The benefit to prop-erty owners is that they are exempt from paying that portion of increased value resulting from improvements as deter-mined by BC Assess-
ment. Instead, they would continue paying the same tax rate as prior to the improvements.
Ross Blackwell, the city’s land use manager, said developers would still pay taxes but would be exempt from pay-ing that portion that has increased above the base amount for five years.
For example, if a build-
ing worth $200,000 is renovated, which increases the value of the building to $3 million, under the current incen-tive program the build-ing would receive a tax exemption worth $17,383 over three years.
With the changes coun-cil is considering the incentive would jump to $34,766 over five years.

Summer seems to be the season of senseless accidents.A jogger is hit by a train at a busy and well-marked
crossing along White Rock’s waterfront. A child falls from a window left open to capture a cooling breeze. A swimmer dives into a shallow pool of water and never resurfaces.
These kinds of tragedies seem to happen year after year.
And they especially resonate because they often involve people
doing activities we’re all pursuing in the halcyon days of summer. Enjoying the outdoors. Being active. Getting
away. Staying cool.But just because we’re slowing down to enjoy the season
doesn’t mean we can let down our guard.Traffic may be diminished, but it’s still dangerous.The water at the swimming hole may be inviting and
refreshing, but dangers lurk beneath the surface.Beers on the back deck or campsite are just as
intoxicating as those consumed in the pub on a Friday night.
Of course more people are out and about, enjoying the sunshine and warm temperatures, so the odds are more accidents are likely to occur. But the zeal to get out, to maximize our enjoyment of these months before the
winter rains and chill settle in again sometimes lead to lapses in judgement.
Seemingly inconsequential acts like leaving a window open, rolling a stop sign, not looking both ways before crossing a street, ignoring a prominently-placed warning notice can come with huge consequences. Sometimes even fatal ones.
British Columbians love the outdoors. Partly because there’s so much of it at our doorstep and it’s so beautiful. Partly because we spend so much of the year seeking shelter from it when rain and snow fall from the sky.
Just remember to be careful out there.– Black Press

So, 125 people using junk science stop an important tech-nological advance for Willow Point.
I wonder how many of them use microwave ovens at home or in the workplace? Same electronic principle.
Now for the other side. We live in a cell dead zone. We cannot send or receive voice or text messages anywhere on our property unless we go across the street to our neigh-bour’s lawn.
Once a visitor almost missed a call regarding an impor-tant family emergency. It was only when we were on our after dinner walk that the call came through.
I have a suggestion. Since the city is using the alternative referundum method to resolve a minor parks issue con-tained in the Broadstreet project downtown, why not use the same method in Willow Point?
Lets see if 3,000 voters believe in junk science, not just the 125.

An inspiring weekend at the BC Special OlympicsOne of the most touching of many
touching moments at last weekend’s BC Special Olympics competition in Lang-ley came while waiting for the opening ceremonies to start.
I had made my way to a seat in the stands at the Langley Events Centre. Two big screens hung on either side of the stage at one end of the arena. While checking my cameras so I would be ready to capture the athletes as they walked in, the screen lit up and a video began playing. By the end of it, my eyes were filled with tears and I fought to keep them from spilling out. One man-aged to escape and it slid down my cheek.
The video that played on the screen featured Campbell River athlete Bryan
Jorgensen who I’ve come to know a little bit from hanging around various prac-tices and events after my daughter has gotten involved in Special Olympics.
It’s a touching video showcasing Bryan as a competitor in swimming and fea-turing the strong support he gets from his family. A multi-sport athlete, Bryan competed in soccer in last weekend’s Summer Games (see page A29).
The BC Special Olympics website says documentary filmmaker Naim Suther-land wanted to create a visually striking piece that would be “part documentary and part high-end sports commercial.”
“I was immediately drawn to Bryan’s story of growing up in a small town (Campbell River) where he didn’t know there were other people like him. It
seemed to me that Special Olympics must have provided him with a very strong sense of community, and that is a powerful story,” Sutherland says. “I hope his story illustrates what Special Olym-pics means to the athletes and their fam-ilies, and I hope by capturing that story we can inspire people to support Special Olympics.”
My daughter Hannah has gotten involved in Special Olympics and I can personally attest to the value it provides athletes and their families. I was sit-ting in the stands at the Langley Events Centre by myself because my wife and daughter were about to march into the arena with the Region 6 team as ath-lete and coach. Hannah competed in track and field and we were there in the
stands at the McLeod Stadium in Lang-ley cheering on she and her Campbell River and Vancouver Island teammate as well as all the other athletes from around the province and the Yukon
Athletic competition is athletic com-petition and it doesn’t matter who or what level of ability is involved. A race is a race and the effort involved is the same and the achievement of success is the same whether it is the London Olympics or the Langley BC Special Olympics.
I can tell you one thing, though, it would be hard to imagine the joy being greater than the happiness and pride of effort I saw last weekend.
And it was pretty exciting to have it all kick off with a beautiful video about an athlete from my own town.

The Ride to Conquer Cancer has come and gone.
Imagine my shock and all my feelings when I found myself at the start line with 3,000 plus other cyclists. Each and every cyclist had to raise $2,500.00 in order to qualify to be there! (Chuck and I raised $600 over and above our goal). This event raised $10.4 million dollars in total for the BC Cancer Agency…and we were all part of that.
Even with a training injury, the energy of the cyclists and fantastic volunteers keep me so motived I rode my ride from the start line to the finish line without miss-ing one kilometre. And what a ride. My average speed was 21 kilome-
tres per hour, (which was my original goal for the ride). This average placed me in and about the middle of the event. Which meant, my riding time, in the saddle each day, was about six hours.
I travelled from Van-couver to Seattle on a scenic route taking me along the oceanside, through small commu-nities, along farmlands and mile after mile of a wonderful bike trail. Each and every kilome-tre brought me an unfor-gettable view, sometimes a challenging hill, (one being seven miles long), fellow cyclists sharing their story, and an overall feeling of “I can’t believe I’m actually doing this.”
I loved it! And there was a part of me who was sorry to see the fin-
ish line!I could not have com-
pleted this challenge without you. This was ‘our’ ride. Thank-you to my wonderful hus-band who was beside me campaigning, organizing our fund-raisers, train-ing with me whenever possible, and believing in me all the way. Also a special thank- you to Fiesta Greenhouses for featuring my cookies at their farmer’s roadside stand; Save-On-Foods; Qual ity Foods and Thrifty’s for donating the supplies to bake cookies, and DTK Farm Market for featuring my cook-ies too. A thank- you to all the consumers who purchased my cookies, Rona for supplying us with Coroplast sheets for making signs, Home
Depot for wood to build our “Cookie Stand”; 99.7 The Rock and the Campbell River Mirror for the publicity, The Campbell River British Car Club for organizing a Car Wash and assisting with our Yard Sale; and the friends who donated to our yard sale. Also, I want to thank those of you who gave a donation, in my name, for The Ride to Conquer Cancer.
I could not have done it without you, and this was our ride from start to finish.
I crossed the finish line wondering what our next great adventure would be!
Thank you everyone, for helping me contribu-tion to the cause for the Ride to Conquer Cancer.

Yaaa…we did it! We truly did it!I had the displeasure of having
to watch two young boys throwing rocks at the feeding migrating geese while their parents sat on the logs and watched them with their dog running loose at the Spit the other day.
The boys got so rowdy that the par-ents had to ask the grandparents to get
them to settle down. What a magnifi-cent display of 21st century parenting! No regard for wildlife, no regard to the leash law and no discipline for their children. What does that say for the future of society?

Re: Get ready for Hydro rate hikes (B.C. Views, July 10).
Yes, the BC Hydro rate increase tsu-nami is coming after the earthquake of BC government debt.
This will hit lower income people – hard. All levels of government are increasing fees and service rates rather than raise income taxes on those who
can contribute more and pay more property tax.
I don’t want to see any drastic action to increase job loss, but governments at all levels need to limit their spend-ing growth to the level of inflation and get borrowing under control.

Gang trouble used to land Subarmani Krishna in jail.
These days it’s a trou-bled heart and a weak-ness for drugs that has put the 34-year-old back behind bars.
“I apologize for what I do…I’m trying to change in a world I don’t know,” Krishna told Judge Thomas Dohm on Mon-day.
Krishna appeared by video in Campbell River provincial court where he pleaded guilty to break and enter, uttering threats, and breaching a no-contact order.
He’s presently in cus-tody at the Vancouver Island Regional Correc-tional Centre in Victoria where he’s been since his arrest on July 10.
On that day Krishna went to the home of his former girlfriend, a woman he still loves, but
is under court order to not contact her. Six days earlier, he had made a court application to vary the no-contact order, but a hearing had not been held when he showed up at her home on July 10.
According to Crown prosecutor Adrienne Venturini, the woman asked Krishna to leave because she believed he was high on drugs. In the past, Krishna had been addicted to crack cocaine, but recently he
was doing better and working as a cook.
H o w e v e r , w h e n Krishna showed up high and threatened to harm himself with a knife, she asked him to leave, which he did, but then he broke back into her home through an open window.
The woman told him police were on the way and refused Krishna’s pleas to hide him. She wound up going to a neighbour’s home and when RCMP arrived,
they found Krishna still in her home, hiding in a closet.
As officers led Krishna to the police cruiser, he became increasingly agi-tated and threatened a friend of his former girl-friend’s. According to the police report, Krishna shouted, “They can’t keep me in jail, I’ll kill you.”
But Krishna was held in custody because he’s cur-rently on an 18-month probation order. At Mon-day’s court appearance,
he pleaded guilty to the three charges and said he’s trying to change, but getting help is difficult.
Krishna told the court he’s spent a good part of his life in jail. He grew up in Vancouver and was a gang member in his teens.
He left the city for Campbell River in an effort to turn his life around and did well for eight years, until 2011 when he started getting in trouble again due to
drug use.Judge Dohm said
Krishna can do well given the opportunity, but also noted that he has a “dif-ficult criminal history.” Krishna was sentenced to seven months jail and given one year of proba-tion.
As part of his proba-tion, Krishna agreed to enter into residential drug treatment. He was also ordered to provide a DNA sample to the national police registry.
The hunting licens-ing program will receive major upgrades, follow-ing a commitment to create an online service that will be flexible, con-venient, user-friendly and fit for the 21st century, Forests, Lands and Natu-ral Resource Operations Minister Steve Thomson
said last week. A key feature of the
upgrade will be an elec-tronic service, which hunters will be able to access 24 hours a day, seven days a week to purchase their hunting licences and apply for Limited Entry Hunting (LEH) opportunities.
Currently, licences and LEH applications can only be purchased from Service BC offices or licensed vendors, many of which are not available over the weekend or non-business hours.
The new electronic licensing service will provide resident hunt-
ers with easier access to hunter services, increas-ing participation, and guide outfitters’ in-camp clients will be able to obtain licences without waiting for a vendor to open or travel to a vendor location.
The system will also help the Province meet
important resource man-agement objectives to ensure the health and sus-tainability of wildlife pop-ulations. The electronic system will create a single point of reference for data collection, including compulsory inspection information, guide out-fitter hunter reports and
resident hunter harvest information.
The ministry is target-ing the 2015-16 hunting season to have the new service in place.
The Province invites bids to design the upgrade, and those wish-ing to submit a proposal can visit: www.bcbid.gov.
bc.ca (Click “Browse”, then choose “by organi-zation”, click “Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natu-ral Resource Operations” then select “Document No ITP-011 Consultants: IT Systems Transforma-tion”.)
The deadline is 2 p.m. Aug. 20, 2013.

Amy Muloin The festival is the
largest free outdoor art exhibition on the North Island and provides an excellent venue for art-ists and art admirers to connect and interact.
Artists working in a wide variety of mediums will share their inspira-tions with the public creating an exciting cross-section of the arts on the North Island, including painting, carv-ing, pottery, jewelry and
so much more.The concept of the
festival is to keep the registration fees low, making it easily afford-able for local artists, while offering free pub-lic admission to create a spectacular event that will surely entertain and inspire.
The festival is growing and is poised to become a landmark event for the city of Campbell River with the addition this year of a performance stage and a theatrical performance by the Black Crow Theater Company, as well as musicians dispersed throughout the grounds.
The exhibition will be accompanied by the Pink Salmon Festival happening just down the street at the Robert Osler Park which will also have its own array of entertainment and family fun creating a truly unique day in Campbell River.
Since its inception the River City Arts Fest has been gaining momen-
tum and the ultimate goal is to create a festi-val that will become a cornerstone for arts and entertainment on Van-couver Island.
Another addition to this year festival will be a culinary arts compo-nent which will feature food specials from own our local, downtown restauranteurs.
The menus will include:n Misty Fins: Pulled
Pork Sandwich $6 & Italian Soda’s $3n On Line Gourmet:
Poutine $7n Banners: 24 Flavors
of Hard Ice-cream
Whether you’re interested in buying art, being inspired, or simply just having a fun time with the kids while enjoying the educational qualities of the festival, it will be a great opportu-nity to get out and expe-rience the amazing artis-tic talent of the North Island and surrounding communities.

PAUL RUDAN/THE MIRRORPerfect hair...always!Kerry Fraser was always known as one of the best referees in the National Hockey League, but he was better known for his immaculate coiffure. Now retired from reffing the big boys, Fraser was in Campbell River on Monday night to officiate the charity hockey match between the NHL Oldtimers and the local Law Enforcement club. The undermanned Law Enforcement team weren’t much of a match for the Oldtimers which included Hall of Famers Bryan Trot-tier and Glenn Anderson. Even a couple lopsided trades didn’t help the Cops who fell 17-12...or something like that. See more photos on Page A31.

The city is forecasting a $3.6 million budget shortfall for 2012, according to preliminary fig-
ures.That’s up substantially from the last estimated budget deficit of $550,000 back in December.The picture looks bleaker now because of a change in the prop-
erty assessment value of the defunct Catalyst mill site. The BC Assessment Authority announced early last month that Catalyst no longer meets the requirements of a major industrial property, and
has been reclassified as business/other, which means a significant reduction in Catalyst’s property taxes.That decision results in a loss of $1.8 million in tax revenue for
2012. Included in the deficit is a $1.1 million tax shortfall carried over from 2011, plus a $1.3 million increase in costs related to con-tract commitments and inflation-ary increases, said Laura Ciarn-iello, the city’s general manager of corporate services.If the city were to maintainthe current level of services it provides to citizens, the tax rate would have to increase by 24 per cent in order to make up the $3.6 million.
The loss of $1.8 million fromCatalyst alone, equates to a 12 per cent residential tax increase.To put that into perspective, Ciarniello said a one per cent res-idential tax increase would bring in $150,000 in revenue for the city. That one per cent increase would mean roughly $12 more per year in property taxes for the average homeowner.
The city’s operating budget isapproximately $37 million which

BC Hydro crews were going flat out much of Monday to repair wind damage that caused power outages from south of Willow Point to north and west of Campbell-ton.
Wind gusting above 100 kilometres Sunday sent a tree crashing onto power lines downtown.
Campbell River Community Centre employees came to work Monday morning to find a cold and dark building.
The centre’s computer system was still idle Monday afternoon. The nearby Scotia-bank was in the dark much of the day.
In all there were more than 25 outages across the city affecting more than 700 cus-tomers.
Residents of the Quinsam Indian Reserve were also in the dark.Outages on Quadra and
Cortes islands affected more than 2,000 customers on Mon-day. More than 500 customers were still without power on the islands on Tuesday.
The Sunday storm also forced cancellation of Camp-bell River to Quadra and Quadra to Cortes ferry sail-ings. Cancellations on the two routes continued into Tuesday.

3x3SEVENTH DAY
In the spring of 1938, an unprecedented dry spell resulted in one of the worst forest fire sea-sons ever seen in British Columbia.
Also known as “The Great Fire” and “The Sayward Fire,” the Bloe-del Fire burned out of control for almost 30 days and destroyed roughly 30,000 hectares of forested land.
The Museum at Campbell River will be telling the story of this dramatic event with archival photos, text and artifacts in a temporary exhibit entitled Burn-ing Snags and Raining Ashes: The Bloedel Fire of 1938 and its After-math. It will be on dis-play starting Saturday, July 20.
Nothing quite like the Bloedel Fire had ever been seen in B.C. in the 1930s and the impact of the fire was felt over the whole province. Fight-ing the fire involved over 2,000 men, and Campbell River and Courtenay were at the centre of news coverage for over a month.
A newspaperman cov-ering the story for the Vancouver Daily Prov-ince, ‘Torchy’ Anderson reported: “Hundreds of men, scores of pumps, fifty miles of hose, snorting caterpillar bull-dozers, axe and shovel crews – every available means of modern forest-fire fighting is pitted against the Red Enemy!”
After the devastation caused by the fire, for-
est officials realized that natural regeneration would not be enough to ensure a sustainable supply of timber for future use. The Bloedel Fire is important to us today, because it marks a turning point in the development of a pro-vincial reforestation program and now, 75 years later, many areas have since been logged and planted again.
This exhibit offers a look at the dramatic events of the fire itself, and the sweeping changes in safety prac-tices and fire fighting techniques that resulted from it. The Museum is open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and the exhibit will be up until mid November.
Sayward, after the Bloedel Fire went through in 1938. The fire is the subject of a Museum at Campbell River exhibit that opens Saturday.

Fluoride has a very unique property in that it can replace Calcium in our enamel. So when our teeth are exposed to acid (which is how decay starts) the acid leaches (pulls) calcium out of our enamel thereby weakening our teeth. Fluoride, when available, replaces the calcium in our enamel and makes our teeth more resistant to acid. So, in essence, � uoride makes our teeth stronger because acid from bacteria won’t be as effective at decaying our teeth. It’s still very important to brush and � oss because, even with � uoride replacing our calcium, our teeth are still susceptible to decay. So 2-3 minutes twice a day for brushing and � ossing every day is still the Canadian Dental Association recommendation.
If you have a question you would like answered please email [email protected]
Question: Why is � uoride so important?

Buying a home is probably the largest purchase you will ever make. It’s vital that you protect it–and your family’s future–by choosing the right insurance. But should you go the easy route and opt for lenders’ mortgage insurance because it’s so convenient to obtain and the premiums are simply added to your monthly mortgage payment? Here are some factors for considering other options:1. With lenders’ mortgage insurance, the lender is the owner and benefi ciary, not your family. But when you own the policy, you designate the benefi ciary.2. Lenders’ mortgage insurance only covers you for the declining balance on your mortgage but your premiums remain the same. With a personal policy, your coverage will not decrease.3. Lenders’ mortgage insurance expires when the mortgage is paid off. Personal policy coverage continues after the mortgage is paid.4. Your lender can change premiums or cancel the
policy at any time. Only you make changes or cancel your personal policy and your premiums are guaranteed for the life of the plan.5. Lenders usually do not allow your insurance to transfer to a new mortgage, lender, or possibly even a renewal but your personal policy moves with you.6. Your lender may assess your coverage only when you make a claim, leaving you unsure of the coverage you have. With a personal policy, your medical history is reviewed before the policy is issued–so you can sure of coverage when needed.
So, you should go your own way. But what types of insurance are best? Permanent life insurance is among the few assets that provide tax-free liquidity to your estate precisely when necessary. Disability insurance is also worth considering because a disability accounts for 48% of all mortgage forclosures.1
Include your spouse in your insurance planning, too. With four separate
coverages – life insurance and disability insurance to cover you and your spouse–not tied to your mortgage, you enjoy portable coverage that won’t be changed or cancelled and the benefi ts are paid directly to your family.
So instead of taking the easy route and building lenders’ insurance into your mortgage payments, consider fl exible coverage you control–build personal insurance coverage into your personal budget. Talk to your professional advisor to fi nd the right mortgage, and other insurance protection, for you.

Joseph NicholasAntonelli
July 31, 1920-July 9, 2013
It is with sad hearts that we announce the peaceful passing of a treasured gentleman, Joe Antonelli, just days before his 93rd birthday. Joe was born in Newton, BC on
July 31, 1920 to Nick and Della Antonelli. His schooling began in Newton and continued at Cloverdale High School. As the oldest of five siblings, he was their leader for many adventures around then rural Whalley. He developed a keen knowledge and deep appreciation of the outdoors that grew throughout his life. He was no stranger to hard work including shake cutting until 1938 when he began work at Green Timbers Forest Nursery. He cleared trails and sites for fire lookouts, arriving in Campbell River in 1939 with the BC Forest Service. He moved to Courtenay working for Wood Bros. Logging and Comox Logging at Comox Lake until enlisting in the Air Force during WWII, where he served his country for four years as an air frame mechanic and learning and developing a passion for flying. Post war, he returned to the BC Forest Service, planting trees and felling snags. He became a camp foreman at Qualicum and Horn Lake. He advanced to forest ranger with postings throughout BC until he left the service in Pemberton where he met Frances Decker who became his wife and the mother of their three children.He was self employed; first sawmilling and then trucking throughout the Pemberton Valley until the remarkable age of 79. Joe returned to Campbell River where he and his brother Ken, spent countless hours revisiting people and places from their early years. His huge heart had plenty of room for new friends, especially Any and Dieter and namesake ‘Joe’ Voss.Joe was predeceased by his wife Frances, brother Marsh and grandson Corey. He had a gift of touching the lives of all who knew him. He is survived by his sister Grace, brothers Ken (Lin) and Dan (Deidre); his grandchildren Debbie, Nick and David; grandchildren Tyranne, Ania and Franklin as well as many extended family members and longtime and new dear friends who will fondly remember and miss him.The family extends special thanks to Dr. de Bruin and Janine from Palliative Care, for their support and understanding during Joe’s short illness. A Memory of Life gathering will be held on Sunday, July 21 at 1:00p.m. at Eagles Hall, 1999 14th Ave. in Campbell River.
A memorial in Pemberton will take place at a later date.In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Joe’s memory to a charity of your choice.

MILNE, Peter(1942 - July 5, 2013).
It is with great sadness that we announce the unexpected passing of Peter T. Milne who was taken from us far too soon on July 5, 2013, surrounded by his family, at Richmond General Hospital after a short, courageous battle with myelodysplastic syndrome. Born in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, Peter and his wife immigrated to Canada in 1967 and lived in Gold River for 13 years until settling in Campbell River in 1980. Peter had a 37-year career in the pulp industry working in Gold River, Mackenzie, Prince Rupert and Port Alice. He enjoyed fi shing the Gold River in the 60s and 70s, was an avid hockey fan and took pleasure in tending to his home and garden. Loving husband, dad and grandpa, he will be deeply missed by his devoted wife of 48 years, Nora; son Graeme (Myra); son Gregor (Erinn) and granddaughters Kate and Lys and grandson Benjamin; and daughter Tricia (Carl) and granddaughter Mila. Dad was a selfl ess provider and was our family’s strong rock. He will be forever in our hearts. As per his wishes, a private, family only celebration of life will be held for him in the near future. Flowers are graciously declined in favour of donations to the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation of Canada (www.ccfc.ca). With heartfelt thanks for Dr. Peter Ling at Richmond General Hospital for his compassionate care and the kind nurses who helped Dad in his last days.

A delegation of 26 dig-nitaries from our sister city, Ishikari, Japan vis-ited Campbell River over the Canada Day long weekend to celebrate our 30th anniversary of twin-ning.
Freeman Mary Ashley, who was a city councillor in 1983 when the twin-ning agreement between Ishikari and Campbell River was signed, and has been a strong twin-ning supporter for years, says: “Our sister city rela-tionship with Ishikari has grown from babyhood to maturity over the past 30 years. That is obvi-ous from our birthday celebrations this past week. When one thinks of the changes that occur between a one-year-old and a 30-year-old, it helps to understand how much we have learned from each other. Both our cities have encour-aged our children, youth and interested citizens to exchange knowledge
and cultural values; to become international in our thinking in the increasing closeness of a global world. There is a lot of interest in tak-ing our twinning to a new level as we renew our relationship. What struck me most about the Ishikari visit this time was the excite-ment of all generations involved, and the desire to continue and expand through educational, cultural and economic exchanges.
“The more we under-stand each other and work together, the more doors will open.”
Mayor Jakeway says, “Since 1983, when we formalized our sister city relationship, our com-munities have enjoyed numerous cultural, edu-cational and professional exchanges as a result.”
He adds, “A special thanks also to both the Ishikari and Campbell River Twinning Societies
for your important role in the quality exchanges enjoyed by the Young Ambassadors and the Senior Exchange. Bravo.”
Upon arrival on Friday, June 28, the delegation’s whirlwind tour included a shopping excursion downtown and an oppor-tunity to visit a fish farm operation Saturday.
Following more tours on Sunday, a dinner was held that evening to commemorate the anniversary, and renew our twinning agreement. Gifts were exchanged. Mayor Jakeway pre-sented a piece of art from local artist William van Orden of Quadra Island for Mayor Taoka, and received a grizzly bear carving from Ishikari on behalf of the City of Campbell River.
Campbell River Twin-ning Society vice presi-dent David Armitage says, “What a profound experience it was lis-tening to the former
exchange students and individuals at the 30th anniversary banquet on Sunday as to how the sister city experience changed their lives. It shows the depth and history Ishikari and Campbell River have in furthering their commit-ments to each other.”
He adds, “Our cit-ies have been leaders in community-to-commu-nity involvement, and I look forward to future anniversaries in which we can continue to proudly retain our stat-ure as one of the most successful and respected sister cities in BC and in Hokkaido Japan.”
The visiting group joined Monday’s Canada Day celebrations, enjoy-ing the Willow Point pancake breakfast and carving exhibits, waving to the crowd from the Campbell River Twin-ning Society parade float, and taking in the Canada Day Fireworks.

In celebration of the abundant return of pink salmon,
Pacific Salmon Founda-tion’s Campbell River Pink Salmon Festival will serve up delicious samplings to the public.
The object of the fes-tival is to promote pink salmon as a sustainable and nutritious seafood choice.
This is the second year for the event and it will be held at Robert Ostler Park on Saturday, July 27 from noon until 4 p.m.
Attendees will be treated to barbecued pink salmon sliders pre-pared by the Kinsmen Club of Campbell River.
All of the pink salmon has been donated by Canadian Fishing Com-pany and sides and sal-ads have been donated by Save-On-Foods.
There is no admission charge for the festival which will also feature entertainment, family activities and educa-tional exhibits.
Pink salmon are a nutritious food source that has traditionally been overlooked by the public
In the Pacific, pinks are the most abundant and sustainable salmon species – returning in very large numbers, so they can be sustainably harvested without dam-age to the overall resil-ience of the population.
Also, purchasing pink salmon can help support B.C. fishers who have struggled over the last decade with low salmon returns.
“Our message to the public is that we as consumers have the power to ensure that salmon have a future for us to enjoy,” said Dr. Brian Riddell, president & CEO of the Pacific Salmon Foundation.
“Pink salmon have the ability to serve as an abundant human food source while also adequately supporting ecosystems that depend on them for survival.”
This year’s festival will feature a variety of exhibits for the entire family.
The day will kick off with a Pink Bicycle Parade for the kids and anglers will have the opportunity to take in casting and fly tying demonstrations.
Several local restau-rants will also be in attendance, and they are will be supporting the Foundation through the contribution of a donation from seafood entrees.
Wooden pink salmon will line the stores on Shoppers Row, where the downtown core of Campbell River will truly go Pink for the month of July.
Since 1989 the Pacific Salmon Foundation has invested more than
$600,000 into 98 salmon conservation, restora-tion and enhancement projects in the Campbell River region.
These funds have been leveraged by local volunteers, and through in-kind labor and added donations have had a total impact of more than $4.8 million.

Nature Talks & Hikes continue during July at the Strathcona Park Wilderness Centre in Strathcona Park.
The Centre is located at the Paradise Meadows trail-head in Strathcona Park, adjacent to Mt. Washington Resort’s Raven Lodge. The Centre is operated by the Strathcona Wilderness Institute (SWI), a non-profit society, which organizes the programs and volun-teers to staff the centre every day for visitor and trail information. SWI also operates the Information Hut at Parks Headquarters at Buttle Lake.
SWI features a new program theme this season – Geology, a talk with Dixon Edwards on Saturday July 20 at 1 p.m. Edwards was formerly with the Alberta and Edmonton Geological Surveys and organized many educational workshops. His presentation will be downstairs at the Wilderness Centre. Registration is limited to 15 participants – contact [email protected] to register.
On Sunday July 21 at 1 p.m., Alison Maingon, retired archaeologist and member of Comox Valley Nature, returns with a talk and walk titled Ethnobot-any in Paradise Meadows. The slide show and walk afterwards will be an introduction to some of our native plants and their uses.
The next guided hike of the season will be Saturday, July 27 with Julian Brooks. The Seven Lakes Loop hike will start at 9 a.m. from the Wilderness Cen-tre. Pre-register for this moderate seven-hour hike at [email protected]
A new hike just added to the programs is on Sunday, July 28 at 9 .m. with William Wright, the McPhee Lake Loop. This is a nine-hour, 25 km. strenuous hike and pre-registration is required. Contact [email protected] for details on the trip requirements.
Also on Sunday, July 28 at 1 p.m., Alana Buchanan of the Marmot Recovery Centre at Mt. Washington returns with Marvelous Marmots: Fun, Fact & Fic-tion. This presentation is a chance to see behind the scenes of the Recovery Centre – what the facility looks like, how it runs, and what they do with the captive marmots. All ages are welcome for this entertaining talk.
The final July Nature Program will be on Tuesday, July 30 at 1 p.m. Helen Robinson of Comox Valley Nature will guide a Plant Walk around the meadows. This has been a great year for flowers and the inter-esting blooms should continue through the summer.
SWI nature walks and hikes will continue in August – for the full schedule, visit the website at www.strath-conapark.org
For all activities: dress for the weather, wear proper footwear, bring lunch or snacks, water, bug spray and sun protection. No pets on SWI nature walks and hikes unless otherwise noted.
