We Wai Kai (Cape Mudge) First Nation Chief Ralph Dick has been found in breach of his

fiduciary duty after accepting a $12,000 share option from a business venture controlled by the band, an external investiga-tion has found.

The investigation, by Ratcliff

& Company LLP of North Van-couver, was requested by We Wai Kai Council after a review of computer files of former band accountant Maurice Magowan.

The report was delivered anon-

ymously to the Mirror this week. We Wai Kai Administrator

Brian Kelly said council is plan-ning to call a general membership meeting to share the findings of the report, but had not done so

yet as many members — includ-ing some councillors — are com-mercial fishermen and are away for the final days of the season.

In what Conservative party campaign man-agers see as a troubling trend, campaign posters for their federal election candidates in mid- and north Island ridings have been defaced, destroyed or taken, while those of their federal election counterparts remain untouched.

“I put up one of the signs at my house and they dumped it in Wood Creek,” said Jamie Wood of Campbell River, who organized a sign-placing drive for North Island-Powell River candidate Laura Smith along the Old Island Highway through Area D south of town. “I found out later it was happening in Nanaimo and all the way up the highway to Camp-bell River. Pretty well consistently the Conser-vatives’ signs are being slaughtered the whole way.”

A volunteer answering the phones at the Nanimo headquarters of Conser-vative candidate Mark MacDonald confirmed Wood’s claim.

“We’ve definitely had a large amount of signs defaced, spray-painted with profanities, bro-ken or taken,” she said. “We’re finding crews are just burning up their time repairing, replacing and picking up signs that have been damaged.”

Nobody has been caught in the act, which can carry criminal penal-ties ranging from vandal-ism to mischief to theft. And members of the Conservative campaigns have offered varying the-ories as to who might be behind it.

But they are agreed on one point.

“The NDP and Green signs right next to ours at the intersections aren’t being touched,” said Glen McPherson, MacDonald’s Nanaimo campaign man-ager. “It’s hard to believe it’s weather-related. Or that it’s a coincidence.”

In Campbell River, Wood allowed that one or two of the smaller

signs might have blown over in last weekend’s storm. But he said the damage began showing up almost immediately after Smith’s signs began going up a week earlier. Particularly targeted are the larger, heavier signs, which have been cut out of their sturdy two-by-four frames.

“In some cases they took a knife and slashed them off,” said Wood. “We secure those on there with screws and washers; they’re not blowing away.”

At the corner of South Island Highway and Jubi-lee Parkway, a support stands at the side of the road, with the screws still holding a strip of a Smith sign that was cut away. Just around the corner at the same intersection, a sign touting Liberal can-didate Peter Schwarzhoff stands untouched. Wood believes dirt-bikers who commonly ride near the beach may have caused some of the trouble. He

said several of the smaller signs that were flattened at the side of the road bore a single tread mark running over them.

“It’s criminal mischief and criminal theft if you take them and knock them down,” he said. “If it’s kids, they don’t want to mess up the rest of their life by getting a record for something like this.”

Section 325 of the Can-ada Elections Act states that, “No person shall prevent or impair the transmission to the pub-lic of an election adver-tising message without

the consent of a person with authority to autho-rize its transmission.”

McPherson promised there would be no retali-ation against the other candidates’ signs, at least not from any volunteers

working from MacDon-ald’s office.

“I’ve put out the word to all the volunteers in our campaign, ‘Please don’t touch anyone’s signs,” he said. “And they wouldn’t, because they’re nice people.”

Wood said he’s seen this sort of activity in the past, and has noted that it usually flares up early in the campaign before set-tling down as the election draws closer. The federal election is scheduled for Oct. 19.

“Hopefully nobody’s gonna take down the other guys’ signs,” he said. “Or any more of ours.”

Kelly said the $12,000 has “been recovered” from the Chief, and “that’s not an issue.”

The Chief could be sanctioned by the band, under its Elect ion Code, through a peti-tion signed by at least 60 members. But it is an unprecedented pro-cess for the Nation.

“There’s a process in there,” Kelly said. “We’re finding out what that policy is, but it doesn’t say what happens if you make a mistake, what to do about it.”

Chief Dick could not be reached for com-ment at press time.

In his written inves-tigation report, John R. Rich wrote that one of the transactions dis-covered in the com-puter records involved an option for a num-bered company, whose directors were the Chief ’s wife and son, to purchase partner-ship agreements in the band-controlled Middle Point Harbour Limited Partnership.

Another transac-tion was a payment of $12,000 to the same numbered company.

“These transactions appeared inconsistent with the usual business practices of MPHLP, and were not previ-ously known to the We Wai Kai administration or council,” the report stated.

The $12,000 payment to the numbered com-pany was then trans-ferred to Chief Dick, who believed he was entitled to the $12,000 for services rendered to MPHLP.

The We Wai Kai hold 51 per cent of the part-nerships in the Middle Point Harbour Lim-ited Partnership, with Pacific Rim Harbour Developments (Tommy and Derek Pal lan)

owning the other 49 per cent. Chief Dick had been the We Wai Kai representative in the management of MPHLP when, in 2013, Magowan proposed there was an opportu-nity to acquire partner-ship units in MPHLP from Pacific Rim “that would lead to a profit.”

The Chief declined on the grounds it would be a conflict of interest, but suggested to Cowan that his son, Robbie Dick, might be interested in the oppor-tunity.

Robbie and Lynne Dick, the Chief ’s wife, then formed a num-bered company that entered into an option agreement to acquire partnership units in Pacific Rim.

“At this point,” the report states, “the option has not been exercised and the num-bered company has made no profits.”

But in February 2014, Chief Dick — acting as representative of the We Wai Kai — signed a res-olution of partnership to pay $12,000 each to Pacific Rim and to the numbered company of which the directors were his wife and son.

Rich’s investigation included an interview

with Kelly, who con-firmed Magowan had been terminated in the summer of 2014, in part because of “his refusal to desist partici-pating in the affairs of MPHLP.”

The report says a We Wai Kai band mem-ber initially raised the potential conflict of interest. Follow-ing Magowan’s depar-ture, We Wai Kai staff reviewed the hard drive of his computer and found a number of doc-uments they considered questionable.

Kelly confirmed nei-ther the option agree-ment nor the resolution authorizing the $12,000 payment to the num-bered company were brought before band council, and that band administration was unaware of either trans-action before gaining access to the hard drive.

In May, 2015 Rich interviewed Dick, who said he was unaware of the option until April 8, 2015, when he was provided a copy of the agreement by his son.

He did acknowledge signing the resolution authorizing the $12,000 payment, and further acknowledged the pay-ment was to come to him, an admission that

was backed by a bank statement provided to the investigator.

“Chief Dick further expressed his belief that he was entitled to the money for services rendered, which he describes as lobbying,” Rich wrote.

The Chief told Rich the money was routed throug h his s on’s company for tax pur-poses, on the advice of Magowan.

In Rich’s summary, he determined Chief Dick breached his fiduciary duty to the band by accepting the $12,000 payment personally, and is obligated to pay that amount to the band.

“If he does not do so, the Nation has a sound legal action to com-pel the payment,” Rich wrote.

Rich further found the Chief in breach of the We Wai Kai Coun-cil Conflict of Interest policy.

That policy does not include provisions for sanctions, but under the Nation’s Election Code the breach does provide grounds for a petition, signed by at least 60 members, to be brought to seek his disqualification from holding his office.

The machines are tearing up the field, the new artifi-cial turf is on order and soon Campbell River will have a centrally-located all-weather field for various organizations to book for use.

It seems everyone in town falls into one of two camps on the whole affair.

The first is that this endeav-our is a waste of taxpayers’ money.

The $2.27-million proj-ect is seen by many as taking funds away from other, more urgently-needed projects, and that many people will see no benefit from the project.

The “Waste of Money” camp also cites the 2008 referendum – which shot down council’s plan to borrow $20 million for a variety of projects, one of which was the Robron field – as proof that the community doesn’t want this expense.

The other camp is the “Hooray for infrastructure improvements and invest-ment in our children’s future!” group.

This group is the people who

see the value in spending pub-lic money on recreation and outdoor activity opportunities.

They argue that outdoor team sports and recreation enhances the physical and mental health of our children, making this a worthwhile investment in the future.

I fall some-where in the middle of these t w o c a mp s , though I lean towards the latter group, I think.

I do believe that there are other things that the city needs to address, and that many of them should have come before the installation of this new sports facility.

I disagree, however, that the public voting against the city taking out a $20-million loan equates to the public say-ing $2.27 million shouldn’t be spent on a sports facility

upgrade.I also disagree that people

who don’t use the field itself will see no benefit from it.

Every time a sports team doesn’t come to town, local res-taurants, hotels, grocery stores and other businesses lose out on that potential revenue.

I guess what I’m saying is this:

Yes. There are i m p r o v e m e n t s that need to be made to our city.

Not everyone will agree what those are, or where

they should fall on the list of priorities, and that’s great.

The world would be a bor-ing place if we all agreed all the time.

But why do we even have elected officials if we are just going to demand they ask us every time they want to spend public funds on things?

Mayor Andy Adams made the Robron Field project one

of the main pillars of his plat-form during the most recent municipal election.

Coun. Larry Samson’s re-election platform was almost entirely advocating for more family-friendly activities and facilities, by my recollection.

Coun. Michele Babchuk pledged her support for the project if elected and won a seat on council in her first attempt – with the second most votes of any candidate for council.

Don’t we want our elected officials to do the things they say there were going to do when they asked us to vote for them?

I certainly do.If we don’t like the decisions

they make on how to spend our money, we tell them that by voting them out next time we get the chance.

For now I’ll wait and see how the new field works out before I rail against its instal-lation, because the people we elected to govern us said it was something they were going to do before we did so.

Robron field: benefit or blunder?

Our ViewOur View

It may appear that the winter rains are upon us. But, it’s not winter although it is almost the end of sum-mer. All summer long we have been basking in the sunshine, heading to the campgrounds and onto the water.

Along with this blissfully sunny summer there comes a huge price tag. The province has spent count-less millions on fighting fires, many of them human-caused. Not to forget the human cost through the loss of homes and animals. It is heart-breaking to hear the losses suffered by so many because of the actions of a few. No matter how many times you tell people to butt out safely, they don’t.

Perhaps now with the rains, the fires will die down and the firefighters will get some respite. The rains are something to be appreciated right now, and the

sun will come out again and give us a spectacular autumn.

It is expected to be rainy for the next while with some sun predicted.

We are thankful for the rain, the trees and plants seem to be drinking in the moisture and the creeks and waterways are seeing some relief from the summer-long drought.

And drought it has been. We hope this is not a sign of things to come, but some say it is. The last thing we want is to be in a position like California is now. We need to be mindful of our water usage whether it is raining or not. It seems we cannot count on the snow pack as we have in years past because this dry climate may become the norm rather than the rare. The wet coast isn’t so wet these days.

The weekend before school begins is supposed to be sunny with temperatures in the 20s.

It is usually a time when families go camping and traveling on the last long weekend of the summer. The campfire bans have been lifted in most areas, but cau-tion is still required.

Let’s enjoy these days whether it is raining or not, because both sun and rain are needed. Be careful on the highways and bring everyone back safe.

-Black Press

Much needed rain in order

We say: Thankful for the rain in the midst of drought

n Re: Mike’s Musings, August 28Mike Davies hits the mark when he states “We, as

a society, don’t put nearly enough effort into fund-ing programs and services – and creating public policy…”

His use of the Band-Aid analogy in describing the present approach is exactly right and is exactly the opposite of what is needed to solve the social prob-lems that plague our society.

In April, the Campbell River City Council voted to endorse the establishment of a Social Policy Frame-work for the province.

PROCESSBriefly, a social policy framework is a tool that can be used to guide decision-making, set future directions, iden-tify important connec-tions and support the alignment of policy and practice. It’s a blue print to be followed to build a sharing community.

In the fall, the Union of British Columbia Munic-ipalities convention sub-sequently endorsed a request for that same Social Policy Frame-work from the provin-cial government. To date the government has not acted on the recommen-dation of the mayors and councils of B.C. It is clear to me, and I assume to Mr. Davies, that pressure to have the provincial government formulate and adopt a social policy framework must come from the grass roots, from us. Campbell River and all communities deserve social policy that benefits all our citizens.

Homeless: solution must be grass rootsContinued from Pg. 6

I’ll be 75-years-old this Christmas, and as long as I can remember, Canadians have been respected around the world.

I recall an air force friend of mine who was stationed in France some years ago, telling me how the Ameri-cans used to put little Canadian flags on their backpacks, because the Europeans held Canadi-ans in such high esteem.

We have a history of trustworthiness and fair play, something we’ve been pretty proud of.

I have six grandchil-dren, and as I look forward to what kind of country we may be leaving to them, I’m concerned.

We don’t expect to always agree with what our leaders do, but we have always, or perhaps until recently, expected them to be guided by Canadian values, and practice Canadian stan-dards of behaviour.

P r i m e M i n i s t e r Harper and his team, evidently hoping to gain an advantage from all their big money sup-porters and well stuffed ‘war chest’, pulled a fast one on the other par-ties, and dropped the writ earlier than usual...so much earlier, that it is predicted to cost us, (the Canadian taxpay-ers whose interests our government is supposed to protect), about $141 million dollars extra this time around.

We will evidently be paying, not just for the increased administra-tion costs of the elec-tion, but millions more in election expenditure reimbursements to the parties.

Imagine what those millions could have done for needy Cana-dians.

I saw Prime Minister Harper and his team on the news the other night, climbing onto their big airplane, as

one of the other par-ties was shown leaving in a bus. It saddens me, and I couldn’t help but wonder if it’s possible for a party with such an obvious advantage in funding, to actually buy a federal election. It sure wouldn’t be very ‘Cana-dian’.

I guess in this modern world, some folks will be laughing and con-gratulating the Conser-vative planning com-mittee for that ‘early writ drop move’.

It just makes me sad, and worried that by the next election or the one after that, Canadian val-ues of honesty and fair play could be a distant memory.

As we sit down to our dinner tonight, these politicians, these people that we have trusted to keep our country strong, have already begun to dismantle our public healthcare system, and to use Bill C-51 to legalize unprec-

edented powers of intrusion and confine-ment, on the pretense of protecting us.

We might not notice because we might be busy, listening to the news about how a Con-servative Senator (one of our trusted holders of the ‘power of sober second thought’ in our government), is on trial for ‘questionable’ finan-cial activities and breech of trust.

It seems there is an issue as well, regarding an apparent attempt at a coverup by the right hand of our prime min-ister.

This is a crucial elec-tion for our country. Our government has already begun abandon-ing its responsibility to adequately fund our public health in favour of a ‘healthcare for profit’ policy. Privatiza-tion of our hospitals and seniors’ care facilities is already well underway. The Health Accord that

has historically guar-anteed provincial input regarding the funding for our healthcare has been abandoned by our Conservative gov-ernment. Adding in other cuts to the CBC, Canada Post,veterans, scientists, coast guard, environmental controls and Destination Canada etc., makes me wonder where all that money is going, and how much impact its loss has had on all of these crucial Canadian services.

Let’s go to the polls in greater numbers than ever before, and when we do, let’s remember that no country can stay strong if its government abandons responsibility for the health of its citi-zens, fails to protect us from theft and dishon-esty from within its own ranks, and places our all important trust in our government at risk.

Re: Kristen’s Com-ment (Lightkeepers prove their worth)

We were out on the water that day during a sail training course and listened to the dis-tress call and ultimately about the rescue on channel 16. Lightkeep-ers proved invaluable over time. While from a navigational point of view an argument can be made that light-keepers are no longer

needed, there is still much value in having lightkeepers on station. There is a reason why light houses are where they are. Often these are challenging waters and pose a risk to mari-ners. Having search and rescue capacity at a light house station only makes sense. There is a great book about the light houses on our coast called “Keepers of the Light” by Donald Graham.

-Christof Marti

n Shame on the Coast Guard

The fact that the lightkeeper had to swim in frigid waters ove r 3 0 0 me t re s because the CCG con-tinually takes away sta-tion boats that can be used for just this pur-pose.

What is wrong with our CCG buraucracy that they just cannot see the benefit that the Senate managed to relate so well in their

Report to Govt. in 2010.

What is wrong with these people! Congrat-ualtions to the light-keeper for his selfless deed in throwing him-self in the water to save two souls just because it was the right thing to do.

Shame on the Victo-ria base of CCG. Get that boat back on sta-tion!

Some animals never know kindness.

The good news is, you can fight animal cruelty in your community by registering and fundrais-ing for the 2015 Scotia-bank and BC SPCA Paws for a Cause walk, held in September to raise funds for abused, injured, neglected and homeless animals throughout B.C.

This year, participants in more than 30 com-munities throughout the province will walk

to raise funds to help animals in need across British Columbia.

The Paws for a Cause walk benefitting the Campbell River SPCA branch, will be held at Nunn’s Creek Park on Sunday, Sept. 13 begin-ning at 9:30 a.m. with the walk starting at 11 a.m.

Participants will be able to enjoy fantastic entertainment and activ-ities, including a bouncy castle and face-painting

for the kids, games for all ages, contests, prizes and a barbecue with delicious food.

Generously supported by loca l sponsors , 2DayFM 99.7, Camp-bell River Mirror, Great Canadian Oil Change, Mactavish Welding, Strathcona Toyota, Sey-mour Pacific Devel-opments, Associated Tire and Auto, Marine Harvest, Dogwood Pet Mart, RH Printing and Design, Campbell River

Pet Centre, and Shar-Kare, the event brings animal lovers and their furry friends from all walks of life together for a great time as well as a fantastic cause.

“This is the largest single event to help fight animal cruelty in British Columbia,” says Krista C onstant ineau, B C SPCA manager of fund-raising events.

“We are overwhelmed by the participation each year – it’s so great to see

thousands of people come together across the province to help B.C.’s most vulnerable animals – and the great news is, this year, regis-tration numbers are up. Our amazing supporters not only raise essential funds, the events are so much fun for two-legged and four-legged partici-pants.”

While the hot, dry summer this year wasn’t great for many water-ways, at least one group of volunteers found a way to make use of the weather to help them.

Members of the Nunn’s Creek Stewards, Green-ways Land Trust, one retired Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) community advi-

sor, and a few random passersby came together recently to build a bridge over Nunn’s Creek while they could.

“We’d built a similar bridge further down the creek four or five years ago, and we’d always wanted to get back and do this one. We actually had planned to do it last year, but we were rained out,” said Barry Peters, the retired DFO member, who helped coordinate

the effort.“Rain wasn’t a problem

this year, obviously, until recently,” he laughed, “and we’d already gotten out in front of it.”

Over a period of three days, Peters said, the group of volunteers low-ered the old bridge on the trail just off of McPhe-dran near 2nd Avenue, into the creek bed to use as a working platform, built the new span, and then removed the old

structure from below.“It wasn’t in very good

shape,” Peters said of the old bridge, “and our worry was that people would either get hurt using it or start to cre-ate their own makeshift bridges on their own,” which could cause envi-ronmental problems and safety hazards down the line. The bridge, while intended for hikers and students coming and going from school on

foot, was designed to take much more weight than necessary.

“We’d like for it to just be a footbridge,” Peters said, “but we have to deal with the reality of people on ATVs and horses wanting to use it, so we made it to be able to sup-port that. Honestly, we’d rather have them using the bridge than crossing through the stream and damaging it.”

Whi le the br idge

itself is complete, they now need to repair the approaches to it – with the help of some Carihi forestry students.

The eastern approach to the creek, especially, tends to flood and get very messy during peri-ods of high water.

“They’ll be building an elevated walkway to the bridge that will allow the floodwaters to run underneath and preserve the surrounding eco-

system from additional damage,” Peters said.

“We really need to find some younger people to take up these causes. The people involved have great ideas and expertise, but eventually they just simply won’t be physi-cally able to carry out projects like this.”

KRISTEN DOUGLASCAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Hydro crews from around the province – including Campbell River – have been help-ing the Lower Main-land recover from the largest power outage ever recorded in BC Hydro’s history.

Ted Olynyk, spokes-person for BC Hydro, said two Hydro workers from Campbell River

assisted with assess-ing the damage and with some repair work wreaked on the south coast by last Saturday’s rain and wind storm.

“Usually they send the crews to us ,” Olynyk said. “It was nice to help them for a change. It was the least we could do.”

BC Hydro estimates that 710,000 or 50 per cent of its 1.4 million

customers on Van-couver Island and the Lower Mainland lost power due to Saturday’s windstorm which is believed to be the single largest outage event in BC Hydro’s history.

Olynyk said that at the peak of Saturday’s storm, 135 customers in the Campbell River area lost power.

“The Campbell River area was basical ly

spared the wrath of the storm,” Olynyk said.

But not everyone was as fortunate.

Much of the Lower Mainland and on the Island, the Victoria and Cowichan areas, felt the brunt of the storm which triggered 1,800 trouble calls related to the event. That’s compared to the 2,000 trouble calls BC Hydro crews typically

respond to in the span of a month across the entire province.

As of 2 p.m. Tuesday afternoon, 3,500 Hydro customers, primar-ily in the Surrey and Coquitlam remained without power.

In addition to Camp-bell River, BC Hydro also called in person-nel from Kamloops, Vernon, Prince George, Smithers, Terrace, Wil-

liams Lake, Fort St. John, 100 Mile House, Courtenay, Nanaimo, Victoria, Port Alberni, Duncan and Qua-licum to assist with the outages. Restoration efforts, however, were made all the more dif-ficult due to the con-tinuing rain and wind. Hydro said saturated soil in certain areas has made it unsafe for

crews to bring in heavy equipment for repairs.

customers without power-400,000 n Number of cus-

MANAGING YOUR MONEY

Down payment downside

It may be that ‘child’ of yours is getting married or that you simply want to pass along some of the wealth you have worked so hard to accumulate during your lifetime. Either way, you want to help them buy a home. So, your fi rst thought is to give your child money – perhaps tens of thousands of dollars – for the down payment on his or her new home. But there is a downside to giving your child cash for a down payment.

When your child marries, the assets brought to the marriage or acquired afterward usually become shareable – so if your son or daughter later separates from their spouse, the cash down payment you provided is included in the total valuation of the house, which becomes a shared asset.

If you want to protect your funds, consider structuring

the transaction as a loan, not a gift. You can do this through a promissory note that includes and loan agreement and security, usually in the form of a mortgage on the home.

In many cases, your child will not be expected to make payments against the loan during your lifetime, but the amount of the loan can then be offset against the amount to be inherited by that child. And as long as the loan is in place, you will have a much stronger argument that those funds must be repaid before any remaining equity in the home is divided between spouses (or common-law couples, in some jurisdictions).

It is vital that this type of arrangement is properly documented and signed by all parties to minimize the possibility of someone denying the existence of the loan at a later date. If your child is not making regular payments of

interest and/or principal, it may also be necessary to ‘refresh’ the loan from time to time to ensure it does not become statute-barred (that is, when a lent sum cannot be recovered by a creditor through legal action because of a time limit imposed by federal or provincial limitations acts).

Be sure to speak to a lawyer to be sure the funds will be treated as a loan and everything is documented. And to be sure your ‘gift’ is in line with your fi nancial and estate plans, also discuss it with your professional advisor.1Information in this article is based on federal rules only.

Strathcona GArdens Regional

PROCESS

This is a group of sea-soned performers who love to take their lis-teners back to the less complex days of great jazz standards.

Spiced with blues, country, latin and even some rock n roll, the

Silk Pajams are a must-see.

Accomplished vocal-ist Ann Johnstone is backed up by Danny Bereza on electric gui-tar and Ian Parsons on valve trombone.Pick your favourite beverage,

sit back and remember where you were and what you were doing when that song was at the top of the charts.

Drop in to the Coach-man between 1 and 4 p.m. on Sept. 20 to see the Silk Pajamas.

Kick back with the Silk Pajamas

The Silk Pajamas, who play the old jazz classics, will be at the Coach-man Pub Sept. 20.

The Philosopher’s Cafe series is back for another season.

The series kicks off next Wednesday, Sept. 9 in the community room at Berwick by the Sea from 7 to 8 p.m.

The discussion will centre around multicul-turalism and whether it has failed our country.

In 1971 Pierre Trudeau adopted multicultural-ism as official policy.

From that point on, Canada would recognize and respect that its soci-ety included diversity in languages, customs, religions, and more. In 1982, multiculturalism was recognized in the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Immigrants could become Canadi-ans by integrating into our culture without abandoning their own. This stood in contrast to American assimilation (the melting pot).

The vision of cultures from around the world living in harmony is a

wonderful vision. But has the policy worked? Is there harmony or is there increased isolation between Canadians?

Stewart Goodings’ early work led to the multiculturalism policy, and then as director general for the secretary of state department, he

guided the implementa-tion of the policy.

More recently, he spent five years on the Board of MOSAIC, the immi-grant settlement organi-zation in Vancouver, so has followed the evolu-tion of multiculturalism over 40 years.

Goodings will speak

at next week’s Philoso-pher’s Cafe and lead a discussion on the past and future of multicul-turalism.

Mo d e r a t o r Pe t e r Schwarzhoff will then open the floor for what looks to be a very engag-ing topic for a lively dis-cussion at Philosophers’ Cafe.

Once a month a speaker will introduce a theme to the Café, and then all who attend can join in respectful, non-partisan conversation, or just sit back and listen.

Participants are wel-come to propose topics and introduce them at future Cafés. Themes should be of broad inter-est and national signifi-cance, and have an ele-ment of controversy to them.

As with each Café, Goodings will have just 10 minutes to introduce the topic, and then the floor is open for 50 min-utes of moderated dis-cussion.

Philosopher’s Cafe returns

The Campbell River Art Gallery invites the public to register for “Abstract Painting with Mary Deveau,” a paint-ing workshop designed to free your mind and just have fun with paint.

“Abstract Painting with Mary Deveau” will run Wednesdays, Sept.

23, Sept. 30, Oct. 7 and Oct. 21 from 6:30 to 9 p.m. at the Campbell River Art Gallery studio. Deveau says the class is simply about painting, which includes creative mark making, abstract-ing forms, colour theory and more. A series of exercises will encourage

painting intuitively, let-ting go of outcome and being open to change and surprise. Partici-pants will be using tech-niques that will intro-duce spontaneity – like painting to music, drip-ping, splattering, fling-ing and smearing – all to free up the mind to make

non-objective art.The class costs $120

for Campbell River Art Gallery members and $140 for non-members. Space is limited, so don’t delay in registering. For more information, con-tact the Art Gallery at 250-287-2261 or email [email protected]

CAMPBELL RIVER’S OWN WEST COAST ROOTS ROCK STAR!

Proud sponsor of the

Rink MinxRollergirls


Thanks to their recent grant f rom Camp-bell River Community Foundations, Volunteer Campbell River is cur-rently putting the finish-ing touches on a project they’ve been thinking about for a long time.

“What we’re doing is creating resource tem-plates and samples,” says Louise Howes, executive director of Volunteer Campbell River.

Thanks to the $2,500 grant from Community Foundations, Volunteer Campbell River took their recent website redesign one step fur-ther in response to what they had been hearing from their membership.

“The survey that we did showed that many organizations think this kind of thing would be helpful,” Howes says, and they want to do whatever they can to make things easier for people, share their expertise in the non-profit sector and stream-line systems that can be complex at times for people without a back-ground in it.

“Non-profits have change,” she says. “They have rotating boards, staff that comes and goes, and it seems a lot of the time, when some-one new comes in, they have great ideas, but it’s almost like they’re rein-venting the wheel over and over again.”

The resource library will contain things like job descriptions, codes of ethics, board position responsibilities, and other standard forms and documents that can be customized by indi-vidual organizations to fit their purposes, but have a standardized structure.

“It should save organi-zations time, help with board development, board policies, staff pol-icies and hours – there’s so many different things we’re pulling together for them.”

One of the struggles with preparing such a database, Howes says, is just the nature of non-profits themselves.

“’Non-profits’ is such a huge compass – it’s so diverse. There are so many types of organiza-tions and varying mis-sions and visions,” she says, so to simplify the template for organiza-tional structure is dif-ficult.

“It’s hard to get a ‘best

practice’ in place. We need to look at what we’ve done, and what other organizations need, and for some things we need mul-tiple examples of how things work,” she says. “Non-profits go from everything from two volunteers running an organization to some-one like the Canadian Cancer Society, who has a multi-million-dollar budget and lots of staff and volunteers.”

Howes is hoping

the resource database should be ready around the end of September or early in October, but their attention has been pulled away from the project temporarily as they prepared for their upcoming annual volun-teer fair, which happens next weekend (Sept. 12) in Spirit Square.

“It’s for our member organizations to come network, build their networking stream, learn about other orga-nizations and what they

do, and for the public to come and find out what kind of resources are available to them within the community,” Howes says.

It’s also an opportunity for the public to directly interact with different organizations they may be interested in volun-teering with and find out a bit more about what they do and what

roles they need filled.For more information

on the resource data-base for non-profits or anything else you think Volunteer Campbell River can help you with, head over to volunteercr.ca, give them a call at 250-287-8111 or stop by their office on Alder Street in the Enterprise Centre (next to City Hall).

22nd ANNUAL SHOW ’n’ SHINE

www.nicruisers.ca

It’s our 23rd Annual “Show ‘n’ Shine”. We have a great day planned for the participants and spectators alike. . We expect many new entries… an incredible line up of antiques, hot rods, muscle cars, race cars, sports cars, exotics and motorcycles… definitely something for everyone. Campbell River has an abundance of really cool cars, and often the only time we really get to see them is at this show. Couple this with the participants who travel from far and wide to show there beautiful pieces of rolling art while experiencing our awesome scenery, and you have a weekend to remember.

We really want to encourage the younger crowd to participate, so a special “Young Guns” trophy will be awarded to an entry owned by someone under 30 years of age.

Our Saturday evening cruise is on again, but starts at 6:30pm this year. See the details in this pullout. Set up your lawn chairs and watch the cars cruise by. Our participants love to cruise and it gives us a chance to show off our great city to our visitors.

Once again we had generous support from the local business community. The Downtown BIA has organized a shopping tour for our participants. Campbell River businesses also donate “door prizes” that are given

to participants. Room for parking all these neat machines is courtesy the City of Campbell River, for Shopper’s Row and Spirit Square, and Tyee Plaza for their parking area.

Our “Top Pick” trophies are award to the “picks” of the sponsors, our members, and we even have a “RCMP Pick”. We don’t judge… we just pick cars we see as special in one way or another. We appreciate every entrant and “Thank You” for participating.

Note: Our club member cars are not eligible for trophies but will be on display.

• Trophies!!! 10 Top Picks, Hard Luck, Long Distance, RCMP Pick, Club Participation, John Uzzell Memorial for best 30’s Chevy, Young Guns Pick.

• Bounce-A-Rama for the kids!

• Great Food – The Jalapeño Grill, Mini Donuts, plus Rotary Burgers & Dogs

The North Island Cruisers is a car club made up of car enthusiasts from all walks of life… the hobby connects us all. For some it’s the fun of building, others it’s proudly showing, and maybe just the fun of cruising around in a neat vehicle. We invite new members; just bring your passion for cars! The club officially

became a “not for profit society” in 1992. Each year we support local charities and actively promote the car hobby. It’s safe to say that this event has contributed thousands of dollars to local charities over the years.

We welcome new members. More information at www.nicruisers.ca

MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR OF THE CAR SHOW COMMITTEE – Jim Johnson

Enter Your Pride & Joy

Your ride could be selected for one of our unique Top Pick Trophies. Our “Top Pick” Trophies are awarded to the “picks” of the sponsors, our members and we even have an “RCMP Pick”. We don’t judge...we just pick entries we see as special in one way or another.

Thank you to all participants, vendors, the visiting public and members of the North Island Cruisers for your support of our Annual Labour Day car show in Campbell River.

Our ‘Cruisers’ have organized this show for the last 23 years and the event has become a highlight of our year. The Car Show has grown to one of the largest on the Island and two years ago we added a Saturday night cruise through town. This year we drive back to the Discovery Mall A&W where we follow up with a street dance and live entertainment.

In 1992 the original 5 members incorporated a ‘not for profit society’ and these are the purposes of our society as defined in our Constitution:

To promote and encourage the restoration, modification and upgrading of motor vehicles with a primary focus on vehicles thirty (30) years old or older, but also including sports cars, muscle cars, race cars, exotics and special interest vehicles.

To share knowledge of the members of the Society on the area of restoring, modifying and upgrading of motor vehicles.

To hold meetings and arrange for social events, competitions and rod runs for its members and others sharing the same interests.

To arrange for insurance, periodicals and publicity for the benefit of its members and to promote motor vehicle safety and courtesy and foster public understanding of its objectives.

As you can see we appeal to a large section of the public who are interested in many aspects of special interest autos. We meet on the first Tuesday of each month at the Seniors Centre in Campbell River Common mall at 7:00 PM. You might also find us at the A&W at Merecroft Mall most weekday mornings. We also publish a Website (www.nicruisers.ca) where you can contact us and find out more about us.

You will not meet a finer group of people who are eager to help fellow members with their projects and their enjoyment of their special interest cars.

Enjoy the Show n Shine and our Saturday night cruise and join our North Island Cruisers – you will have fun!

Campbell River’s Valerie Doyon (front left on the right podium) and her Team Canada teammates took home bronze medals in the 18-21 kumite at the Pan-Am Karate Championships in Bolivia last weekend.

Karate kid bound for worlds


Campbell River’s Val-erie Doyon added to her growing collection of hardware last weekend when she brought back a bronze medal from the Panamerican Karate Federation’s Junior and Cadet championships in Santa Cruz, Bolivia.

But she came out of the competition much more excited about qualify-ing to compete for Team Canada in the World Karate Championships in Jakarta, Indonesia, this November.

“I was No. 1 in points in Canada, but was wait-ing for after the Pan-Ams to see how Hana (Furumoto-Deshaies) would do,” said Doyon,

of Campbell River’s Shito-Ryu Seiko-Kai Karate Club. “I’m still ahead, therefore I was the one selected to go to the world champi-onships, which is very exciting.”

The PKF competition was Doyon’s first in the adult division after turn-ing 18 this summer.

She already has a silver medal from the Cana-dian Nationals and a gold from the North America Cup in Las Vegas in the 17-year-old division on her resume this year, and won bronze with Cana-da’s U21 female kumite team last weekend.

She was an alternate on the four-member team with Camelie Boisvenue, Trysten Deveau and Furumoto-Deshaies, and did not actually fight.

“I was honoured to be selected, and I still had to be warmed up and ready to go into a fight,” Doyon said. “But I don’t feel like I put in as much effort as the other girls, so it’s kind of bittersweet.

“I would have loved to

have fought.” After dropping its

opening match against Chile, the U21 Canada team went on to defeat USA and Mexico to claim bronze — as well as the unofficial top spot among North American teams.

The gold medal was won by Venezuela, with Chile claiming silver.

In individual competi-

tion, Doyon got only one fight in the U21 under-61 kg class. After scoring the first point against Argentina’s Melina Mar-tinez, a two-time vet-eran of the Pan Ameri-can Games, Doyon fin-ished the match in a 1-1 draw. Martinez was then awarded the win by a 3-2 in hantei, a judges’ deci-sion.

“It was really unfortu-

nate; I was really mad,” Doyon said of the loss. “I thought I was OK because I had more flags go to me, 6-2. I attacked more.”

C omp et i tors may return to the bracket after a loss through repê-chage if their opponent advances into the medal round. But Martinez lost her next bout, end-ing Doyon’s chances to rejoin the competition. The weight class drew 15 entrants, with Venezu-ela’s Oriana Rodriguez claiming the gold medal.

“Whenever it goes to a judges’ decision it’s not the best situation,” she said. “But I was just happy to be there. I was probably one of the youngest, if not the youngest, people in the competition.”

It was the second con-secutive trip for Doyon to the PKF Champion-ships in South America.

She departs this week to study at the Univer-sity of Ottawa and train for the world champion-ships.

From left, the Canadian U21 kumite team of Hana Furumoto-Deshaies, Valerie Doyon, Cam-elie Boisvenue and Trysten Deveau sport their bronze medals at the 2015 Pan Am Karate Championships in Boliva Sunday.

After such an amazing Summer I have to admit that a weekend of rain, as much as we needed it, was not welcomed by me.

I was on Hornby Island and really looking for-ward to riding some smooth dry trails. Dry wasn’t an option though, as it rained pretty hard over the weekend. Part of me wanted to hide out in the trailer, eat junk food and avoid the mud, but I don’t get to ride new trails very often so I headed out and made the best of it for two days.

I actually ended up having a couple awe-some rides. The trails had hardly any water on them and the canopy of trees managed to keep me fairly dry. As the weekend came to a close, there were signs of sun-shine to the North and we headed toward home and the Monday night Swicked ride.

After dealing with packing up the camp site, managing a four-year-old who hates the end of holidays and waiting in multiple ferry line ups, I made

it home just in time for the group ride. I quickly got dressed in whatever clean bike clothes I could find and pedalled down my driveway.

That’s when the skies opened up and tried to drown me. So much for

sunshine. Sadly, I was not prepared for this weather and short of an old torn rain jacket, all my wet weather gear was in my washing machine.

So I squinted into the rain and tried to avoid the biggest puddles on my way to meet the group. I was covered in mud and felt like I was wearing a wet diaper, but surprisingly happy about it all. Its been so long since I rode in the mud I think I forgot how much fun it can be. By the end of the night the 15 riders with me had mud covered faces, dirty bikes and big smiles. It was a tough start to the night, but once we were all a little muddy, it was

just another great ride.No matter how fun

it was in the mud, I am still hoping for another month or two of dry, warm weather. But, it was a nice reminder that winter on the west coast is pretty mild and with the right gear, a tiny bit of prep and a helmet light, when most of the country is snowed in, we get to ride our mountain bikes all winter long.

So rather than hanging your bike on the hook in the garage when the rains come, why not join a bunch of other wing nuts and come out for the Monday night group ride, its lots of fun!

Mo u nt Wa s h i n g -ton Alpine Resort has announced lowered prices on the Alpine and Gold Season Pass prod-ucts for the upcoming 2015-16 season. Skiers and riders can see sav-ings as much as $300 over last year.

“We did an extensive review of all of our Sea-son Pass products. By simplifying our lineup, we have been able to reduce our rates and increase benefits for our Pass Holders,” said Don Sharpe, Director of Business Operations at Mount Washington Alpine Resort. “With our new rate structure,

more people than ever can enjoy the excitement of the mountain.”

Families will also ben-efit from a new family discount program.

“Mount Washington’s foundation is families,” continues Sharpe.” That is why we have simpli-fied the family discounts to offer greater value. On average alpine families will save hundreds over last year’s rates.”

In addition to low-ered prices, the resort’s annual Early Bird Sea-son Pass Sale is now on. “We’re offering up to 36 per cent off regular season rates when you purchase your pass in

September,“ said Season Pass Coordinator, Mau-reen Thompson. “Don’t wait, the Early Bird sale ends at midnight, Sept. 30.”

Included in the Early Bird Sale is Mount Wash-ington’s flagship product, the Gold Pass. This pass offers unlimited seven-day-a-week skiing/rid-ing, night skiing, Nordic skiing, and snowshoe-ing. “The Gold Pass is the best value out there; your break-even is less than 10 visits,” Thomp-son adds. “It provides avid skiers with a sense of freedom, to come and go when they want, ver-sus the sense of urgency

sometimes felt when skiing on a day ticket. New this year, we have entered into a reciprocal partnership with Revel-stoke Mountain, Apex, Manning Park, and Mt. Seymour, to provide our Gold Season Pass Hold-ers with two free lift tick-ets at each resort – it’s huge value.”

And the 100-day Win-ter Guarantee returns for the 2015-16 winter season. This program provides Season Pass Holders at Mount Wash-ington a guaranteed 100-day season. If not, the resort credits Pass Holders towards a pass for the following year. “It

provides our Pass Hold-ers with peace of mind in their purchase,” said Thompson.

Season Passes can be purchased during the September Island-wide road shows, on- moun-tain, or online at www.mountwashington.ca.

TYEE MARINE

From August 21 to the 31 there has been plenty of action in the Campbell River Tyee Pool but the king or queen of the biggest spring in 2015 has yet to be crowned.

In the early morning hours and late evening hours, anglers have taken their boats out and the bell has rang six times at the clubhouse, with a total of 10 Tyees being registered this year. On August 21, two Tyee were caught and both were 31.5 pounds, caught by James Newman rowed by Rick Janzen and Jules Lacroix, who rowed by him-self.

Both � sh caught were brought in be-tween 7:30 and 8 p.m.

� e next day saw Sally Rickert come in with a 32 pound Tyee with rower R.D. Berger.

At 6 a.m. on August 23, Bill Tomicki got a 37.5 Tyee with rower Ross Spiers. Angler Rick Gunn got his 31 pound Tyee on August 25 with rower Peter Winter using a plug.

Ginny Harrington got to the Tyee scale on August 28 with a 34 pound Tyee using a plug and rowed by Randy Kil-loran who has been the Go To Guy for catching a Tyee.

At any given moment, but especial-ly during the evening hours, up to 60 boats can be seen � shing the pool.

For the record, in 1968 Walter Shutts of

Corvalis, Oregon had the � sh of the year in Camp-bell River with a Tyee of 71 pounds.

With the rain we had at the beginning of the week and when the weather clears, expect the � shing action to heat up. If you drive to the end of the spit there is lots of park-ing and there are many oceanside places to sit on the shore to watch the boats coming and going along the stretch of water in front of the clubhouse. In my opin-ion, the best seat would be a Tyee boat trying to catch the big one.

Each week on the Fishing Corner, information is gathered from � shing guides in the area, plus from my ex-periences � shing at least four times a week, and that information is passed on to the readers every Friday.

Rhonda Harper supplied me with in-formation that was supplied through the Visitor Centre. In July to mid-Au-gust, six per cent of the visitors to the Centre are inquiring about � shing, � shing options and where to get li-cences and rod rentals.

� is year in Campbell River there were a lot more American tourists along with people from Italy and Germany.

More rain is needed but what we’ve got should get the pinks moving into the upper pools of the Campbell and Quinsam rivers but � shing has been good for those looking for fun-to-catch salmon.

On my � rst outing last week on the Campbell River a � y pattern that gets results is the Clouser Minnow avail-able at tackle stores in the area and you are inclined to tie your own a popular colour is green, pink or blue, I prefer to use a standard size hook size 10 or 12 , 3 x long and tie in a pearl mylar material on the body with deer hair up front. It out � shes any � y I have used in previous years and takes little time to tie and get � shing.

It all began in 2007. A g r o u p o f

fr iends, s itt ing around having lunch at the Quadra Island Community Centre, were talking about the services offered on their little island – or lack thereof.

That was the infor-mal start of the Quadra Circle Community Con-nections Society.

“Yeah, it’s quite a mouthful,” laughs Mau-reen McDowell, presi-dent of the society – as I fumble their name while asking about their organization as we sit in the group’s small office located between the bookstore and the library in Quathi-aski Cove. “Just call us Quadra Circle.”

Quadra Circle began with small meetings in their members’ own homes – as a sub-com-mittee of the Quadra Island Recreation Soci-ety – but they soon real-ized they needed more visibility within the community in order to broaden their reach and decided to become their own registered society, which happened last year.

“I guess what drew us together was the wish to have services (on Quadra) rather than be forced to go to a larger community,” says McDowell.

“It was going not too badly, but as we got busier and developed more services, we also felt it would be better to have a bit more of a physical presence. We

wanted to be a resource and information place for people to drop into and get their questions answered.”

Thanks to a New Horizons grant from Island Health through the Strathcona Regional District, they found the funds to move into their current space in Quathi-aski Cove.

Their overarching goal is to increase the quality of life for those in the community. But with approximately one-quarter of the approxi-mately 2,400 residents qualifying as “senior,” and those members of the community natu-rally needing a bit of extra support, seniors tend to garner the most attention from the orga-nization.

“As people get older, it gets harder and harder for them to get motivated enough to go across to Campbell River to get the care they need,” McDowell says, adding that they find out what services are lacking within the community from within the community itself, as the needs are always evolving.

“We have 60 or so peo-ple coming to our Fri-day lunch, for example,” McDowell says, which is a great place for Quadra Circle to discover gaps in services.

Out of those Friday lunches came the idea for their Foot Care pro-gram – where people who are low income and can’t afford proper foot care can get the help they need – as well as the organizations’ Home Meals program.

“Some of our seniors just weren’t getting prop e r nut r i t i on ,” McDowell says, so Quadra Circle partnered with Gowland Harbour Resort to produce nutri-tious meals for $5 each, “which I couldn’t man-age to produce on my own, and the nutritional value is very high – not to mention they’re really good. That’s been a won-derful asset.”

The meals are custom-ized for dietary restric-tions and preferences, as well.

They are also hop-ing to implement a “Friendly Phone” service soon, where a volunteer will call a community member daily – or how-ever often they want the service – to make sure they’re okay.

There are a lot of remote properties on Quadra, “and things happen,” says Karen

Gair, director and trea-surer of the organiza-tion, and sometimes people can go for days without seeing anyone.

“We’re hoping a ser-vice like this can help give both them and their families some peace of mind.”

They also have a “volunteer driver” pro-gram to help people get around the island or over to Campbell River and back, and are work-ing on a “Community Resource Guide.”

“We’ve been working on it for a while now,” says Gair. “You can go on a computer and find different things, but a lot of our seniors are not vey computer liter-ate, so we’re working on a little book type of thing for them to have. It’s all about who to go to when you need different things.”

Thanks to dedicated

volunteers like Gair, McDowell and outreach worker Marie Sheran, the organization has been able to secure vari-ous grants to keep them afloat, but are hoping to one day be able to employ an actual paid coordinator.

“There are eight direc-tors on the board and we all kind of take our own little area that we’re interested in, but it would be nice to find the money to have a full-time person,” Gair says. “We’re all getting to the stage where we can’t do it full time. It would be nice to have someone on full-time and carry on (these initiatives), and for all the work we’ve done to be able to con-tinue.

“But so far we’ve been able to scrape by and keep going,” she says.

And they have numer-ous initiatives and pro-grams in the planning stages that are what would be classified as “long-term,” so don’t expect them to give up on that anytime soon.

“We’ve calculated that we’ve probably done about $194,000 worth of volunteer hours this year,” McDowell says.

“We’re proud of that, because it shows how many people are willing to pitch in,” says Gair. “We enjoy it. It’s nice to be doing something you enjoy. I feel sorry for people that are stuck in jobs that they don’t enjoy.”

Good hearing but trouble with conversation?A lot of people have trouble catching what people say, especially in group situations, despite having good hearing. What a lot of people don’t know is that this may be caused by damage to the so-called motor or amplifier function of special cells in the ear. A new type of hearing aid can help balance this out.A great many people have difficulty hearing others clearly on a daily basis. Bad acoustics, unclear pronunciation, background noise and music often make it challenging to catch what people say. This results in them having to repeatedly ask questions, straining to hear and perhaps increasingly avoiding discussions in large groups. As mentioned earlier, this may be caused by malfunctions in special cells in the ear. According to a theory proposed by hearing researchers, “motor cells” are a type of hair cell responsible for amplifying quiet sounds. They vibrate up to 20,000 times per second. If these hair cells do not work properly then quiet sounds are no longer naturally

amplified in the ear and loud sounds no longer dampened. This leads to more difficulty in hearing what is said in a lot of situations. If the hair cells have been damaged by noise or blood circulation problems, hearing aids that amplify quiet speech and dampen loud ambient noise can be a

Hair cells in the ear move very rapidly and can act as an amplifier or dampener. If these cells are damaged, they can no longer properly amplify speech and dampen loud noises.

good solution for most people. This improvement in hearing can be achieved for some clients through the new Phonak Audéo V’s hearing aids. This cutting-edge hearing technology comes in a miniature casing that can significantly enhance the user’s ability to hear speech in company. The hearing aids attune to the person you are speaking to and can also recognize if ambient noise increases in the background.Connect Hearing is currently looking to improve hearing for people who experience these challenges and want to try this new technology. We are particularly interested in candidates who have trouble hearing speech in the situations discussed above and can benefit from a demonstration to see whether they notice an improvement.

Interested people can register for a free hearing evaluation and a no-obligation demonstration of the Audéo V hearing aids by calling 1.888.408.7377.

Gre enways L and Trust is looking for vol-unteers to help with the third annual Frogger 15 Fun Run.

This is a fun and friendly event and a great way to give back to the community.

The race will be held on Saturday, Sept. 19. Volunteers will start anywhere from 7:30 to 8 a.m., depending on

their allocated task, and all will be finished by noon in time to enjoy the end of the race fes-tivities in Spirit Square.

Volunteers receive gift cards and freebies to commemorate the day.

The Frogger 15 raises money and awareness for Greenways and the 25 kilometre Green-ways Loop.

Starting downtown at

Spirit Square, partici-pants run to the Beaver Lodge Forest Lands, then finish at Spirit Square with commu-nity booths, music, salmon burgers, and awards.

Those interested in being involved can contact Libby at Green-ways at 250-287-3785 or email [email protected]

Teresa Maher/special To The Mirror

Last year’s Women’s Race Winner, Sophia Sauter, relaxes in Spirit Square following the race with sons Max and Nathan, who competed in the Tadpole Trot.

Who are we? This fun-damental

question about human nature has puzzled many thinkers for many cen-turies — probably yield-ing as many opinions as thinkers. We certainly expect to find a range of individual differences within the human com-munity.

But the question per-tains to our collective behaviour.

Who are we as a spe-cies? We can make generalized descrip-tive statements about the character of bears, salmon, ants, eagles and deer.

But what is humanity’s collective character? The answer has huge impli-cations for understand-ing virtually everything we have done, are doing and may do.

An interesting insight is provided by Yuval Noah Harari, a professor of macro-history and the author of Sapiens: A Brief History of Human-kind.

Since his specialty is broad historical ques-

tions, he directs us back to humankind’s early beginning for an answer.

For most of human history, Harari explains, we were not a dominant species. Despite our large brains and sharp tools, we were no match for the top predators or even the middle ones. During our existence as Sapiens in Africa between one and two million years ago, we were little bipedal gath-erers and scavengers, eating nuts, berries, insects and roots while supplementing our diet with the leftover meat and remains from the kills of large carnivores. We waited our turn at the carcasses of creatures like wildebeests until the lions, hyenas and jack-als were finished. Then, with our stone axes, we

could bash open the uneaten bones for the remnant marrow.

Not until about 400,000 years ago did we evolve from kill-ing small animals to larger ones. And only 100,000 years ago did we graduate to “the top of the food

chain.” By the slow mea-sure of biological time, Harari explains, such a rapid ascent meant that ecosystems did not have time to adjust, as they did with other top predators such as lions and sharks.

This helps to explain why we, as a species, have had such a disrup-tive effect on the planet’s biota.

“Moreover,” Harari adds, “humans them-selves failed to adjust. Most top predators of the planet are majestic

creatures. Millions of years of dominion have filled them with self-confidence. Sapiens by contrast is more like a banana republic dictator. Having so recently been one of the underdogs of the savannah, we are full of fears and anxiet-ies over our position, which makes us doubly cruel and dangerous. Many historical calami-ties, from deadly wars to ecological catastrophes, have resulted from this over-hasty jump.”

Does Harari answer the question of who we are?

He certainly provides an interesting insight. For all our apparent

sophistication, we are nonetheless fearful, anxious and careful creatures, ever watch-ful of predators and danger, always wary of surroundings and chal-lengers, usually uneasy and insecure, inherently concerned about power, surprises and vulner-

abilities.So go back a million

years and imaginatively place yourself at the kill of a wildebeest, warily waiting for the top pred-ators to finish feeding.

Can you be certain that they are too con-tentedly full of meat to attack the furtive

little bipedal scavenger nearby, nervously hop-ing for access to the uneaten bones?

Our circumstances have changed immensely since that long-ago time. But the genetic memory persists, eliciting a feel-ing that is vaguely and uncomfortably familiar.

A friend recently remarked that my column in

the Mirror wasn’t what she had expected. She had thought it would

focus on the different strategies and sources genealogists use to do their research. She made the point that relating stories of people and

places of the past was historical commentary and not genealogy. Of course I argued other-wise (that’s what I do), but neverthe-less I went a w a y a n d c ons i d e re d what she had said.

T e c h n i -cally speak-i n g , s h e’s right, but as I pointed out in my first column, the purpose of tracing our families is to find the stories.

We dig to find the dirt. Does it matter that the

stories told are of some-one else’s family? I don’t think so. And, if the suc-

cess of programs such as Who Do You Think You Are? are any indica-tion, a lot of other people don’t care either. There

is some-t h i n g magical a b o u t u n c o v -e r i n g pieces of people’s l i v e s – t h e quirkier, the bet-ter. It is as if they c o m e back to

life. I know that sounds corny, but it’s true. As long as the stories sur-vive, the people live on.

Of course, when it’s your own family you are making discoveries about, it is even more exhilarating. But every now and then, you run into a brick wall and need some help.

That’s where the CRGS Quest Team jumps in. Every year the team takes on the task of break-ing through an appar-ent dead end in some-one’s family search. This requires thinking outside

the box and following avenues of investigation not previously pursued. Normally, the team unveils its results at the June meeting, but this year unforeseen circum-stances postponed the reveal until September. It is an event not to be missed. The Quest Team took on my brick wall a couple of years ago, and what they found blew me away. They opened a door that took me all the way back to the seven-teenth century, and put me in touch with family in England and Austra-lia. How cool is that?

So, if you’ve been thinking you might like to try tracing your fam-ily’s roots, but you don’t know how to go about it, join us for an evening of fun and enlightenment to see if genealogy is for you. (It’s always enter-taining to poke through someone else’s closet.)

Quest breaking through dead ends

As many people get ready to go on road trips and camping trips this Labour Day long weekend, the B.C. gov-ernment is encourag-ing everyone to be road smart on their journeys.

The Labour Day week-end is one of the busi-est travel weekends of the year, according to a recent government release. Drivers are encouraged to stay alert, pay attention to the increased traffic levels, use caution and always drive to the road condi-tions, which can change quickly.

This is also the peak of highway construc-tion season, the release says, and while most construction activities are put on hold for the long weekend, safety in work zones depends on drivers being alert and following the directions, road signs and workers who may be present.

“Statist ical ly, long

weekends pose a higher risk for serious crashes so, on behalf of police officers everywhere, I ask drivers to focus on simple actions that make everyone safer on the road,” said chief constable Neil Dubord, chair of the B.C. Asso-ciation of Police Traf-fic Safety Committee in the release. “This long weekend, I urge you to become a driving role model by making a com-mitment to your family and friends to buckle up, slow down, leave your phone alone, and drive sober. For those who continue to take unnecessary driving risks, police will be out in force.”

Current highway con-ditions, travel advisories and closures are avail-able on DriveBC.ca with more than 500 highway cam views. DriveBC updates are also avail-able by following them on Twitter (@DriveBC).

FVancouver Island Motorsport Resort

Performance car dream track on track for springIt’s what B.C. performance car enthusiasts have dreamed about for years – a first class, high-speed track.And that dream will become a reality next spring with the opening of the Vancouver Island Motorsport Resort, just north of Duncan, in the picturesque Cowichan Valley, less than an hour from Victoria.The centre, developed by the Island-based GAIN Dealer Group, promises up to 350 driving days a year, thanks to the area’s temperate climate. “This is not aimed just at people with very expensive, new high performance cars,” explains GAIN chief executive officer Peter Trzewik, who expects to announce membership details within a month.“We hope to see people with older model cars, who want to get out on a good track. We could sell out the membership immediately overseas but instead we are encouraging Canadians and people from over the border in Seattle and Portland. It’s important that this track is used daily.”And for around half of each month, Trzewick expects to see new car product launches, driving school courses and community charity galas and events.The circuit, designed by internationally renowned Tilke GmbH & Co, will provide the novice an opportunity to gain proficiency, while challenging the more accomplished drivers.Phase One comprises 19 corners and elevation changes of more than 25 metres, with a length of 2.3 kilometres. Speeds of up to 200 km/h will be possible on the high-speed sectors of the circuit in the first phase. When Phase Two is completed likely a couple years later, a total of 4.21 kilometres of track will be available

Trzewik says driver safety is a priority so there are state-of-the-art run-off areas providing an opportunity to make a correction, with tire barriers and guard rails in reserve, enhancing the protection of both car and driver. Members travelling to Vancouver Island will be able to choose the convenience of leaving their performance

car at the VIMR in a secure and temperature-controlled storage facility. With this add-on option, cars stored at the resort will be maintained to track-ready condition by specialists, providing the member full use of their car when their schedule allows, with minimal personal effort for repair and maintenance. Factory trained technicians representing Alfa Romeo, Audi S-Line, BMW M, Mercedes-Benz AMG, MINI JCW, and Porsche will be available to provide the expertise in keeping modern track cars in perfect running condition. Repairs and maintenance will be completed in the time between member visits to maximize their time driving. Members who enjoy vintage sports and racing cars will be able to have their cars maintained and repaired by Rudi & Company, a world-renowned specialist

in the restoration and repair of the world’s great cars. Assistance with the delivery of a member’s car to the resort may also be arranged with trusted transportation partners. A 14,500 square foot clubhouse will offer a complete range of services to its members and house a restaurant featuring the very best of Vancouver Island ingredients.

Here on the West Coast we tend to be

complacent about the wide selection of wines available to us from California.

And while there’s no shortage of white wines, the variety of rich red wines – from what would be the world’s fourth largest producer, if it were a separate country – is astonishing.

In France there is a long tradition of négociants – wineries who have few if any of their own vineyards but acquire grapes or even partially finished wines from indepen-dent growers, as well as commercial wineries.

Sebastiani & Sons have evolved into one of California’s most dependable négociants.

Pepperwood Grove Old Vine Zinfandel (406132) $11.55 comes from Don Sebastiani &

Sons. Made from 100 per

cent old vine zinfandel grapes it shows off a medley of berry fruit flavours and aromas – rasp-berry, black-berry, ripe plum, prune and dried figs are most obvi-ous.

Under the fruit, there are tantalizing notes of vanilla and caramel – and at an unbeliev-ably affordable price.

From Bronco Wine Company’s diverse family of brands Crane Lake 2012 pinot noir (201285) $11.65 is a light and most approachable take on

‘the heartbreak grape.’ Tart strawberry and

sweet dried cherry aromas and flavours slide into raspberry and damson plum before

ending with a sprinkling of sage and white pepper.

From being everybody’s favourite California red wine in the 1990s, merlot fell out of favour with the resurgence of pinot noir and cabernet sauvignon.

Warren Winiarski of Stag’s Leap Wine Cel-lars is often credited with being the first winemaker in Califor-nia to realize that – as with France’s bordeaux – merlot is an excellent blending component, rather than making it into a straight forward

100 per cent varietal wine.

Blackstone Wine-maker’s Select Merlot (103242) $14.20 is a mouth filling blend of 82 per cent merlot, four per cent petite sirah, 10 per cent syrah, two per cent cabernet sauvi-gnon, one per cent cab-ernet franc and one per cent rubired – a hybrid of Portugal’s tinta cão and alicante ganzin.

This exceptionally complex merlot oozes rich blackberry, plum, and raspberry flavours over vanilla and toast and truffles.

Genetically identical to Croatia’s crljenak kaštelanski and tri-bidrag, as well as primi-tivo grown in Italy’s Apulia, red zinfandel wines have been taken to new heights in Cali-fornia.

The Association of Zinfandel Advocates & Producers was founded in 1991 to promote

American zinfandel and its unique place in California’s culture and history.

Zinphomania is tongue-in-cheek-ishly defined as an exces-sive and uncontrollable desire for zinfandel brought on by the titil-lating aromas and dec-adent flavours of big red zins. Zin-phoma-niac (925958) $23.25 is a seductive blend of 95 per cent lodi zinfandel and five per cent men-docino Syrah.

Jammy strawberry, raspberry, blackberry and black cherry aro-mas and flavours slide into spicy tea and black pepper in the finish.

Every year some of California’s best-known wineries drain their tanks to bring in grapes from the newest vin-tage.

With their négociant philosophy of sourc-ing surplus wines from anonymous top California producers (…after signing a non-

disclosure agreement to protect the integrity of their brands) Cameron Hughes brings wines of exceptional quality to the market at astonish-ingly affordable prices.

Cameron Hughes Lot 304 Napa Valley Meritage (3335) $24.30 California Lot 304 Napa Valley Meritage is a blend of 64 per cent cabernet franc, 23 per cent merlot, nine per cent cabernet sauvi-gnon and four per cent petite verdot.

The main grapes come from an unnamed winery in the Napa Valley that specializes in cabernet franc.

More elegant than jammy, it showcases the peppery spiced blackberry character of that variety with classic Napa Valley hints of mint and eucalyptus.

Bringing a variety of different wine grapes together from an assortment of regions almost guarantees a

richer and more com-plex red wine.

Obviously, California`s best wine-makers have realized just that.

Blended from 91 per cent cabernet sauvi-gnon five per cent mer-lot, two per cent mal-bec, one per cent cab-ernet franc and one per cent petit verdot, Black Stallion Cabernet Sau-vignon (583617) $36.90 is made from a com-bination of grapes pri-marily from the Napa Valley with contribu-tions from vineyards in the Oak Knoll district, St.Helena, Rutherford and Mt.Veeder.

Outrageously concen-trated flavours of black cherry, blackberry, spice and French and American oak segue into cappuccino and caramel with notes of mint, olives and earthy mushrooms.

The Quadra Circle Connections Society – or just Quadra Circle for short – is thrilled to be able to continue their Senior Outreach Program, thanks to a recent $4,000 grant from the Campbell River Community Foundation.Quadra Circle secretary treasurer Karen Gair says they were thrilled to find out they had received the Community Foundation grant. She didn't hold out much hope that their application would be approved, and was stunned when it did."It felt so nice to think that they felt we were doing a good job and were willing to help," Gair says. "Everything seems to go to Campbell River, and it was nice to see they recognized our value over here."The Senior Outreach Program, according Quadra Circle president Maureen McDowell, is essentially a way to increase the services offered to members of their community that wish to remain over on the island more, and enable them to remain in their homes as long as possible while giving them the supports they need to do so."As people get older, it gets harder and harder for them to get motivated enough to go across to Campbell River to get the care they need," McDowell. "I guess what drew us together was the wish to have services on our

island rather than be forced to go to a larger community."And so they started creating those services themselves, one of which is the Senior Outreach program, headed by senior outreach worker Marie Sheran."I used to be a public health nurse," Sheran says, "so I'm familiar with problems with people at home. Our aim is to keep people at home as long as possible and provide them access to any services that we can offer them, both on the Island and let them know what services are available in Campbell River and elsewhere."One facet of the outreach program is their Home Meals program, which sees nutritious meals prepared by Gowland Harbour Resort delivered to those who need them at the low cost of $5 each."It's a real asset," Sheran says, "because then the family doesn't have to worry about (the senior) not getting a meal when they're not there, and the people know that they can just heat it up and not have to wait for someone to come help."McDowell says there is a misconception about the residents on the outer islands – that if they're wealthy enough to live in paradise, they can afford what they need to do so.

"There's quite an economic diversity over here on the Island," McDowell says."There's a myth that all the older people who live on the Islands are all wealthy retirees, 'snowbirds,' etc. and it's far from it. A lot of them are retired fishermen or farmers, or people with marginal incomes."Many of them are just getting by and don't have the money for social activities. We have great cultural events and things over here, and you can be as busy as you want to be in various things here, but if you don't have the extra $20 or whatever to go see a concert or whatever, it's a problem."One of the most important support services offered by the outreach program is something that many people take for granted – companionship.Sheran says 12 of the organizations' volunteers have taken a "senior peer counselling" course over in Campbell River, and it's proven itself to be of great benefit to their program."Many of our seniors are very isolated – and by isolation I don't mean they don't have family around, but sometimes their family is working or away from the home quite a bit – and they're quite lonely. Well, a senior peer councillor can go and visit them once a week,

take them for a walk, go for coffee, just have a visit at their home – whatever it takes to relieve that isolation."For more information on the Senior Outreach Program offered by Quadra Circle, or any of their other initiatives, head online to quadracircle.ca or call them at 250-285-2255.

Done Right, the First Time.

Thank you to all participants, vendors, the visiting public and members of the North Island Cruisers for your support of our Annual Labour Day car show in Campbell River.

Our ‘Cruisers’ have organized this show for the last 23 years and the event has become a highlight of our year. The Car Show has grown to one of the largest on the Island and two years ago we added a Saturday night cruise through town. This year we drive back to the Discovery Mall A&W where we follow up with a street dance and live entertainment.

In 1992 the original 5 members incorporated a ‘not for profit society’ and these are the purposes of our society as defined in our Constitution:

To promote and encourage the restoration, modification and upgrading of motor vehicles with a primary focus on vehicles thirty (30) years old or older, but also including sports cars, muscle cars, race cars, exotics and special interest vehicles.

To share knowledge of the members of the Society on the area of restoring, modifying and upgrading of motor vehicles.

To hold meetings and arrange for social events, competitions and rod runs for its members and others sharing the same interests.

To arrange for insurance, periodicals and publicity for the benefit of its members and to promote motor vehicle safety and courtesy and foster public understanding of its objectives.

As you can see we appeal to a large section of the public who are interested in many aspects of special interest autos. We meet on the first Tuesday of each month at the Seniors Centre in Campbell River Common mall at 7:00 PM. You might also find us at the A&W at Merecroft Mall most weekday mornings. We also publish a Website (www.nicruisers.ca) where you can contact us and find out more about us.

You will not meet a finer group of people who are eager to help fellow members with their projects and their enjoyment of their special interest cars.

Enjoy the Show n Shine and our Saturday night cruise and join our North Island Cruisers – you will have fun!

1980 Chevrolet Corvette coupe with a 350 CI L81 V8 motor and automatic transmission. It is a original all stock survivor car. Its nicely equipped with power steering, brakes, and windows, air conditioning, and Gymkhana suspension. I have had the car four years and got from a fellow who owned it for 27 years. The car spent its life in a garage and only driven during the summer months. It’s a ton of fun to drive and I show it at car shows, also take it to car club events, and especially enjoy touring.

Beautiful Survivor! 75th Anniversary of the1940 Ford

2015 is the 75th Anniversary of the ’40 Ford. The ’40 has been called one of Henry Ford’s mostbeautiful designs ever, and ranks up there with the ‘32 Ford as a very popular base for a Hot Rod.

Since Jim & Patti Johnson moved to Campbell River ten years ago, their ’40 Ford Deluxe Tudorhas been seen on the streets regularly every summer. The car is a great daily driver. Jim is oftenasked if it’s all original, since the body is completely original, but modern components lurk underthat 1940 look.

Well, maybe not that modern… the stock chassis has been upgraded withindependent suspension using the popular Mustang II design up front, with C2 Corvette supplying the independent rear, including power disc brakes all around. The engine is a 1965 425 cubic inch “Nailhead Buick” coupled to a ST400 transmission.

It also has power steering, so it drives and rides much like a new car. The interior is completely redone with a traditional look, but includes Volvo bucket seats, air-conditioning and a modern stereo.

In 1989 the car received a temporary paint job so it could take part to the 50th Anniversary celebrations, and that temporary paint job served it

well until 2014 when Jim decided the ’40 deserved a facelift. With the help of fellow club members and painter Dan LeBlanc a new coat of 1940 Ford Mandarin Maroon was applied in E&B Helicopter’s paint booth.

With regular maintenance and upgrading Jim expects the ’40 to make it to the ’40 Ford’s 100th anniversary.

Berry & Vale Contracting Ltd3815 Discovery Drive 250-286-3505

John Davis has a thing for 1936 Fords, and after taking a look at the � ve window coupe in today’s column, I completely understand the attraction.

In 1962, Davis was 18 and working at Burger’s B&A in Ladysmith when he purchased a 1936 two-door sedan for $100.

He eventually sold that car for $150, but as any gearhead knows your � rst car tends to stick in your memory and haunt your dreams long after it’s gone.

Davis owned a string of other hot rod or custom Fords over the years, including a 1940 Ford and a few Model A Fords.

The last Model A he purchased was sold before it was � nished so Davis could concentrate on raising a family and building his business.

But in the spring of 1991, Davis started thinking it was time he picked up another project.

A classi� ed ad in a Vancouver newspaper led him to the car you see in today’s feature.

It was a “not quite stock” 1936 Ford 5-window coupe with a rumble seat and a � athead V8. Mechanically, the car still had stock suspension and a stock three-speed transmission, which was hooked up to a 1940

Flathead V8.

The car was in Victoria and its owner, Les Crombie, was still somewhat attached to the car after almost 20 years of ownership.

Davis didn’t mind making the trip down island, but he would come back to Campbell River empty handed. It was sitting in a car port, full of leaves and it wasn’t running” says Davis of the 57-year-old Ford. “The guy wanted $6,000 and I thought it was too much money.”

Apparently Crombie thought so too.

“He called me two weeks later and asked me what I could afford to pay,” says Davis. “There was another few weeks of dickering back and forth but I ended up paying $4,000.”

Davis � nally had the 1936 Ford he had wanted for almost 40 years and by the summer of ‘91 he had it running.

With the help Russ Schoenfelder, who performed the body work, painted the car in PPG Black and reassembled the car, Davis ended up with a show-winning street rod.

Davis says he built the car without compromise and you can tell by the coupe’s interior..

Davis’ wife, Darlane, chose red

leather for the interior and carpet which was installed by Dave Tabish at Cass A Interior in Campbell River. The ‘used sparingly” rumble seat is upholstered in the same red leather as the front seatsans door panels. Classic Instruments gauges take the place of stock units and, keeping with the no compromises theme, the outer rim of all six gauges received the 14-carat gold treatment.

The mirror-like PPG black paint is complimented by subtle but slick red pinstriping courtesy of Abby Aspen of Chemainus.

The bumpers are polished stainless

steel units (stock are chrome) while the stock sideview mirrors remain.

The car was back on the road in 1997 and it made a big impression in its � rst outing – winning Best in Show at the Qualicum Beach Father’s Day Show ‘N Shine.

“It was sort of a dream car.” says Davis of the restoration.

“Kind of a once in a lifetime thing.”

One thing is for sure, in my relatively short lifetime, I’ve seldom seen such a � ne, well thought out and put together street rod.

FROM THE GROUND UPThis 1969 Camaro was purchased from a co-worker 12 years ago. The pictures show the transformation from a well worn white car to what it is now a � nished (almost) vehicle. It was stripped inside and out to bare

metal then placed on a rotisserie to better access all sides of the car. The car was relatively rust free which is unusual for a 30 plus year

old car. The only panel replaced was the door skin which wasn’t rusty but worn thin from previous body work. It was then

coated with more modern products like epoxy primers then worked out from there.

While the body remains in stock form the running gear was extensively modi� ed. The engine has most of the internals replaced with tougher parts. The valve train is completely rollerized then the short block is topped off with

aluminum heads, AIR-Gap intake, and the carburetor has been replaced with

F.A.S.T. fuel injection. The accessory drive kit is a late model GM serpentine system.

MSD ignition puts things in to motion. The transmission is a 700R4 overdrive unit and the later

model 8.5” corporate rear end contains 3.42 gears, Auburn posi. and Moser axles. The car rides on 17” Foose Legend wheels and Nitto 555 tires.

The whole interior was covered with a sound deadener (Dynamat). The interior is all new, original black carpet, upholstery and headliner. Auto Meter gauges are � tted to the stock console and the shifter adapted to control the 4 speed automatic. Music is supplied through a Custom Auto Sound 630NA unit and Kenwood speakers. The body work and initial prep was done at home. Special thanks to Henry and #1 Autobody for the � nal blocking and application of the water borne 2012 GM “Ashen Grey” paint and clear coat.

Plans for this Winter include installation of new front bolstered seat foams with stock appearing covers and 4 wheel Wilwood disc brakes.

My thanks to Alex McIntosh Photography for photos of the � nished car.

HEROES-Super heroes in our local business community supported the Yucalta Lodge Volunteer appreciation event

on August 17th with donations for our door prizes.

Many thanks to the Healthyway Natural

Foods Market, Fusilli Grill and Splashes.

We are very fortunate to have your support for our volunteers at this event.

HEROES- Heroes to Jamie Turko at Destiny River Adventures.

He was kind enough to loan a few stand-up paddle boards and kayaks to the Campbell River Search and Rescue family camping weekend.

The fun these provided to the kids and adults alike made the weekend a spectacular success.

It was fun to watch the 6-year-old kids figure out stand-up paddle boarding and definitely helped wear them out so they would fall asleep easier in the evening (not to mention everyone else). Thank you so much for helping to make our weekend a little more adventurous and a lot more fun!!

HEROES- Many thanks to Jim Creighton for his wonderful summer of music and entertainment at Spirit Square this year. Thanks too go to the City of Campbell River for funding and to the TD Bank and 2 Day FM 99.7 for their sponsorship of the Thursday night free concerts in which our band Reunion was lucky enought to be asked to participate.

Some animals never know kindness.

The good news is, you can fight animal cruelty in your community by registering and fundrais-ing for the 2015 Scotia-bank and BC SPCA Paws for a Cause walk, held in September to raise funds for abused, injured, neglected and homeless animals throughout B.C.

This year, participants in more than 30 com-munities throughout the province will walk

to raise funds to help animals in need across British Columbia.

The Paws for a Cause walk benefitting the Campbell River SPCA branch, will be held at Nunn’s Creek Park on Sunday, Sept. 13 begin-ning at 9:30 a.m. with the walk starting at 11 a.m.

Participants will be able to enjoy fantastic entertainment and activ-ities, including a bouncy castle and face-painting

for the kids, games for all ages, contests, prizes and a barbecue with delicious food.

Generously supported by loca l sponsors , 2DayFM 99.7, Camp-bell River Mirror, Great Canadian Oil Change, Mactavish Welding, Strathcona Toyota, Sey-mour Pacific Devel-opments, Associated Tire and Auto, Marine Harvest, Dogwood Pet Mart, RH Printing and Design, Campbell River

Pet Centre, and Shar-Kare, the event brings animal lovers and their furry friends from all walks of life together for a great time as well as a fantastic cause.

“This is the largest single event to help fight animal cruelty in British Columbia,” says Krista C onstant ineau, B C SPCA manager of fund-raising events.

“We are overwhelmed by the participation each year – it’s so great to see

thousands of people come together across the province to help B.C.’s most vulnerable animals – and the great news is, this year, regis-tration numbers are up. Our amazing supporters not only raise essential funds, the events are so much fun for two-legged and four-legged partici-pants.”

Campbell Riverites and their dogs take part in last year’s SPCA Paws for a Cause walk and fundraiser. This year’s event takes place next weekend.


7x10.5



While the hot, dry summer this year wasn’t great for many water-ways, at least one group of volunteers found a way to make use of the weather to help them.

Members of the Nunn’s Creek Stewards, Green-ways Land Trust, one retired Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) community advi-

sor, and a few random passersby came together recently to build a bridge over Nunn’s Creek while they could.

“We’d built a similar bridge further down the creek four or five years ago, and we’d always wanted to get back and do this one. We actually had planned to do it last year, but we were rained out,” said Barry Peters, the retired DFO member, who helped coordinate

the effort.“Rain wasn’t a problem

this year, obviously, until recently,” he laughed, “and we’d already gotten out in front of it.”

Over a period of three days, Peters said, the group of volunteers low-ered the old bridge on the trail just off of McPhe-dran near 2nd Avenue, into the creek bed to use as a working platform, built the new span, and then removed the old

structure from below.“It wasn’t in very good

shape,” Peters said of the old bridge, “and our worry was that people would either get hurt using it or start to cre-ate their own makeshift bridges on their own,” which could cause envi-ronmental problems and safety hazards down the line. The bridge, while intended for hikers and students coming and going from school on

foot, was designed to take much more weight than necessary.

“We’d like for it to just be a footbridge,” Peters said, “but we have to deal with the reality of people on ATVs and horses wanting to use it, so we made it to be able to sup-port that. Honestly, we’d rather have them using the bridge than crossing through the stream and damaging it.”

Whi le the br idge

itself is complete, they now need to repair the approaches to it – with the help of some Carihi forestry students.

The eastern approach to the creek, especially, tends to flood and get very messy during peri-ods of high water.

“They’ll be building an elevated walkway to the bridge that will allow the floodwaters to run underneath and preserve the surrounding eco-

system from additional damage,” Peters said.

“We really need to find some younger people to take up these causes. The people involved have great ideas and expertise, but eventually they just simply won’t be physi-cally able to carry out projects like this.”

Anyone interested in helping on future proj-ects can contact Green-ways at www.greenway-strust.ca

Mountainaire Avian R e s c u e S o c i e t y ’s (MARS) brand new fun-draiser launches Satur-day, Sept.12 at the Black Creek Fall Fair.

“Raptors . Turt les . Bears. Fawns. Sockeye.

“Put wildlife on a func-tional and fashionable tote bag and you have a fashion statement like no

other,” says Dianne Pol-lock, volunteer coordi-nator with MARS.

The bags are available in a variety of sizes from a versatile shopping, travel carryall or beach bag, to a dressy bag for a night out, down to the smallest bag for an iPhone.

Constructed of PVC

coated fibreglass mesh, decorated with fabric images of native ani-mals, birds, and aquatic life and then topped off with some dazzling bling, they are strong, functional and designed for use.

They are competitively priced from $10 to $40 for the largest bag and any size would make a unique and useful gift.

All the bags are made locally in the Comox Valley and Campbell River by dedicated vol-unteers who saw the need and stepped in with their artistic skills.

“Without these volun-teers, this project simply couldn’t have gotten off the ground,” said Pol-lock.

In fact, MARS would still like to hear from sewers who have a little time to devote to this fundraiser as feedback has been very positive and the group expects strong interest.

MARS has attracted attention recently for being at the centre of caring for a num-ber of abandoned and orphaned fawns – 16 and counting – that they have successfully reha-bilitated.

The fawns will be released back to their natura l habitat by November.

While MARS staff and volunteers are extremely pleased with their suc-cess, feeding 16 hungry fawns depleted MARS funds and their care is an ongoing cost.

Fundraising is crucial to keeping the doors open at MARS and like many charities, they are getting creative in ways to attract donations.

Maj Birch, founder and manager of MARS says, “It is part of our philosophy that where possible, we want to give back to the donors

in some way and the tote bag fundraiser does that.”

MARS wildlife rehabil-itation and caregiver vol-unteer Sandy Royer, who has no trouble getting down and dirty tending to the many casualties who arrive at MARS, is helping sell these bags by doing double duty as its very presentable model.

MARS hints that a fashion show will soon be seen on its Facebook page.

The tote bags will also be available at the Black Creek Fall Fair Sept. 12 on 2001 Black Creek Road from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Honouring our

workforceOn Labour Day, we salute the men and women whose hard

work keeps our nation moving in the right direction.

Their expertise, dedication, innovation and industry are the lifeblood of Canada’s economy,

and it’s the combined effort of so many hands, hearts and minds

working together as a team that keeps our country strong and

vibrant.As we celebrate Labour Day,

we recognize with gratitude all of the workers who uphold and embody the robust work ethic that makes us so proud to be

Canadians.

Labour Day 2015


Origins of Labour Day rooted in a workers’ strikeThough many Canadians now see Labour Day as little more than a summer holiday, its origins trace back to a significant time in Canadian history.

By the second half of the 19th century, Canadian cities were experiencing an influx of immigrants that caused populations to grow considerably. This coincided with a changing workplace that was relying more and more on machines, putting workers in an unenviable position. Workers’ once-special skills were now being handled by machines, leaving the working class with little leverage and no recourse to protest low wages, long hours or poor working conditions. Workers who made

such protestations were easily replaced, so many simply accepted what their employers had to offer, regardless of how poor that offer was.

Such was the reality in Toronto in 1872, when the Toronto Printers Union began to lobby its employers for a shorter work week. When their demands were ignored, workers went on strike in late March.

The strike proved a blow to Toronto’s publishing industry, which had to sit by and watch as a group of 2,000 workers marched through the streets of Toronto in mid-April. As the protesters marched, they garnered more and more support, and eventually the

crowd of marchers had expanded to 10,000, or 10 percent of the city’s population.

Though the published industry might have been dealt a significant blow, the response from industry leaders, including Toronto Globe founder George Brown, was less than pleasant.

Legal action was taken against the leaders of the strike, and replacement

workers from neighboring towns were brought in.

But Prime Minister John A. Macdonald, a political adversary of Brown’s, supported the workers, eventually passing the Trade Union Act that decriminalized unions and led to the strike leaders’ release from jail.

Despite support from the Prime Minister, many workers still lost their jobs, and the goal of a shorter work week was not immediately achieved. But the strike was a significant moment in Canadian history, showing workers they were not powerless.

In addition, an annual

parade was held in honor of the workers who went on strike, and this celebration soon spread to cities throughout Canada. By 1894, these parades were officially recognized when then-Prime Minister Sir John Thompson declared Labour Day a national holiday.

The Campbell River Arts Council, the Haig-Brown Institute, the Museum at Campbell River and School Dis-trict 72 are partner-ing this year to present the 2015 Haig-Brown Memorial Lecture.

The lecture will take place next Saturday, Sept. 12, from 7 to 8:30 p.m., at the Museum at Campbell River.

This year’s lecture,

entitled “Aboriginals, Conservation, Fish and our Common Survival,” will be delivered by noted Canadian author Bev Sellars.

The lec ture wi l l address issues of the residential school sys-tem, environmental stewardship and cul-tural perspectives on the economy.

Bev Sellars stepped down in March from

her position as chief of the Xat’sull (Soda Creek) First Nation in Williams Lake, B.C.

She returned to the First Nations commu-nity of Soda Creek after an extended period of, “visiting other territo-ries.”

While she was away, she earned a degree in history from the University of Victoria and a law degree from

the University of Brit-ish Columbia, and she served as adviser for the B.C. Treaty Com-mission.

She was first elected chief in 1987 and has spoken out on behalf of her community on racism and residen-tial schools and on the environmental and social threats of mineral resource exploitation in her region.

Her b o ok, They Called Me Number One: Secrets and Sur-vival at an Indian Residentia l School received national atten-tion and was the win-ner of the 2014 George Ryga Award for Social Awareness in Literature.

The Haig-Brow n Memor i a l L e c ture Series was created by the Campbell River Arts Council in 2009, with the intention of honouring the legacy of both Roderick Haig-Brown and Ann Haig-Brown (nee Elmore).

Roderick Haig-Brown (1908-1976) applied his passion equally to fish-ing, writing, conserva-tion, and public service and left behind a strong legacy of literary excel-lence, centred on the rivers of B.C.

His work represented an early voice in envi-ronmentalism and con-servation.

Ann Elmore was a major force for social justice issues in Camp-bell River, notably around the challenges facing women.

The Ann Elmore Transition House is named in her honour.

The Haig-Brow n Memorial Lectures pro-vide an annual forum for writers to inspire a new generation with their vision for the envi-ronment, social issues

and literary excellence.A signed and num-

bered collectable chap-book of the 2015 Lec-ture has been produced and will be available at the Museum at Camp-

bell River. Call the Museum at

287-3103 to reserve a seat for this historic event.

The cost for the lec-ture is $10.

It was close right to the very end, however, Marine Harvest Canada pulled out a win for the coveted Scrap Metal Cup with $5,127.04 in scrap metal.

“In four years the Campbell River Hospital Foundation Scrap Metal Challenge has raised more than $58,000 for vital medical equipment for our hospital,” says Stacey Marsh, executive director of the Hospital Foundation. “It is because of the commitment and support of companies like Finning, AJ Forsyth, Western Forest Products, T-Mar, Marine Harvest Canada, Shaw, Seawor-

thy Marine, Coastline Towing, ABC Recycling, Marine Link Transpor-tation, City of Campbell River, the Mirror and the many, many people who donated at the public bin, that we can make a posi-tive difference in health care for our community. Thank you.”

There are roughly 400 babies born in Campbell River Hospital each year and the money raised from the Challenge will go towards helping the hospital’s smallest patients. The donation is going towards the pur-chase of bili-lights which are used to help treat babies with jaundice.

Jaundice is a common, temporary and usually harmless condition in newborns. It affects both full-term and premature babies, usually appearing during the first week of life. However, high levels of bilirubin can occur in the blood called hyperbil-irubinemia. These high levels can be dangerous to a baby. Phototherapy is the most common treat-ment of jaundice and that is exactly what bili-lights are used for. The lights are suspended at a dis-tance from the baby and help to eliminate biliru-bin in the blood.

The winner of this year’s Scrap Metal Chal-

lenge, Marine Harvest, was pleased to be able to help the hospital while at the same time clear out its warehouse.

“The greatest bulk of the Marine Harvest dona-tion was made up of old electrical cable. We have since moved to LED style lighting and all the older heavy cable was brought into our land based warehouses to repur-pose, sell or recycle,” said Rick Adams, warehouse and logistics manager. “The Scrap Metal Chal-lenge became the perfect opportunity to put some of the original value of the wire back into the community.”

Local businesses participated in the Hospital Foundation’s annual Scrap Metal Challenge this summer to raise money for hospital equipment.
