Horgan throws hat in ringfor B.C. NDP leadershipJuan de Fuca MLA changes mind, decides to take another run at winning provincial party’s top job

Kyle WellsNews staff

MLA John Horgan is credit-ing his constituents for chang-ing his mind and convincing him to seek leadership of the provincial NDP party.

His announcement, made Monday in his Juan de Fuca constituency, is an about-turn from the MLA’s Oct. 2013 deci-sion not to run. He said at the time he wanted to “get out of the way of our younger mem-bers.”

“I’ve been approached con-sistently, almost daily, to re-consider my decision,” Hor-gan told the Gazette before his announcement. “I’m seeing a broad consensus emerging that what we need is strong leadership to take on the Lib-erals in 2017, and I believe, and many, many others believe, that I fit that bill.”

His intention to set the stage for younger politicians has not

been fruitful, he said.

“I felt that if I was out of the picture that would give them more com-fort. The young people that I had hoped to step up are encouraging me to step up.”

A focus on the environment and industrial devel-opment will be the keystone of Horgan’s campaign. He describes himself as a longtime NDP diehard who believes in the importance of community, public services and ensuring access for all to the “prosper-ity of B.C.”

“I believe I can take those values and encourage people to not just vote for the NDP, but to be excited about voting for the NDP,” he said.

Reflecting on the NDP’s sur-prising defeat in the 2013 elec-

tion, Horgan said the party needs to listen to voters and make sure it is relevant to British Columbians.

He was joined at the announce-ment by former party leader Victoria-Beacon Hill MLA Carole James, along with Maurine Karagia-

nis, MLA for Esquimalt-Royal Roads, and Cowichan Valley MLA Bill Routly.

Horgan plans to unveil more NDP MLAs as members of his team over the coming week.

He finished third in the 2011 leadership race behind Mike Farnworth and winner Adrian Dix. So far, Farnworth is the only other party member to have announced his run for the leadership in 2014. A leader will be picked on Sept. [email protected]

The BC Government is proposing to offl oad the province’s world-class recycling programs, run by local municipalities, to an association led by big multi-national corporations. The idea is that we’ll get a better, more effi cient program that costs taxpayers less.

Unfortunately, what we’ll really end up with is anyone’s guess.

The association isn’t guaranteeing that we’ll get a better program, or even one as good as the current Blue Box program already in place. Since the association is led by big businesses outside of BC, many of whom are not even headquartered in Canada, one could presume that profi ts will come before environmental stewardship. They usually do. They also won’t guarantee that there won’t be any job cuts here in BC.

And how is this supposed to make things better for BC?

Currently, BC homeowners only pay, on average, $35 a year for curbside recycling. Under the proposed regime, you’ll pay more. Every time you bring home a pizza, buy toilet paper,

or pretty much anything else that comes in a package, businesses will be passing their increased costs on to you.

How much more? Well, nobody’s saying.

Here’s the only thing anyone does know: we already have a Blue Box program that works, is effi cient, managed locally and puts the BC environment fi rst. So why is the BC government fl ipping a coin, bringing in a questionable recycling program that some of our local elected offi cials are already calling a “scam?”

It’s time to contact Premier Clark and ask her.

What’s going on here?

Teachers teaching teachersTwo Belmont secondary

educators are heading south this summer to teach teachers how

to help students better prepare for post-secondary studies.

John Froess and Paul Bendall have been involved with the Advancement Via Individual Determination education system since 2008 and will teach the program to other educators in California.

The program targets middle-of-the-pack students who are not struggling to pass, but may need help reaching a level that increases their chances of being accepted into university or college programs.

“These (are students) who have the skills, have the ability, they just need the extra structure, force and push to get them out there,” Froess said. “That’s

the whole premise, building successful paths for these kids to get them ready for university or college.”

“We take students who have college desire, college dreams, college potential, but lack the organizational skills, the writing skills,” Bendall added.

The program was developed in San Diego in 1980 and has expanded worldwide, with programs across the U.S., in Canada and Australia.

In British Columbia there are 10 districts and 17 schools involved, including Belmont.

The specific AVID class Bendall teaches is an elective and focuses on such skills as note taking, time management and materials organization. It also emphasizes critical reading and analytical writing.

Froess, an English teacher, is among those who apply AVID techniques to the regular classroom, using team-building strategies or teaching organization to help all students,

regardless of their level. About one-third of Belmont’s teachers have received AVID training.

Sooke School District has offered the program since 2005, with Dunsmuir and Spencer middle schools are also now on board.

Froess and Bendall started teaching the material in 2006 and two years later began instructing other teachers in AVID. Today they are two of only three Canadian educators who do the annual instructional sessions down south.

“They like us. They think we talk funny, but they like us,” Froess said of their American counterparts.

The two teachers see the results of the program in their own students, who find confidence and the skills they need to succeed. Many have gone on to post-secondary education, and those who complete the course achieve provincial exam marks two or three per cent higher than the school average.

Part of the success comes from the support network the program builds. Students who stick with the AVID classes stay together at least three years – longer if they started in middle school – and many find a sense of belonging.

“We build a peer group. They don’t come to it that way, but we build it,” Bendall said. “A family environment, that’s the one I get the most feedback on. They are comfortable, they’re not afraid to take risks, they’re not afraid to try new things.”

The results are also rewarding for the instructors, who see change in the students as they work their way through the program.

As well, they enjoy meeting other teachers with a similar approach to education.

“I absolutely love being in a place where we are all rowing in the same direction for kids,” Bendall said. “We’re all together and we all have the best interests of our kids at heart.”[email protected]

Langford dance aims to raise money for family


With Langford four year old Hannah Day due to receive a critical stem cell transplant from her mother today (March 19) in Vancouver, volunteers are organizing a fundraiser dance for her family this weekend.

Hannah has been on the minds of many in Greater Victoria since being diagnosed with leukemia, the second cancer diagnosis she has received in her young life. She remains weak from chemotherapy and

radiation treatments related to her first diagnosis – a rare condition known as rhabdomyosarcoma.

At one point it was thought her only chance for survival

lie in finding a perfect stem cell match for a transplant. A co-ordinated campaign to find such a match came up with candidates, but at this point Hannah is too

weak to withstand the radiation needed for the transplant.

Family friend Kim Roost said a recent bone marrow biopsy revealed Hannah’s cancer is still prevalent.

The transplant from her mother is a risky procedure; a tough choice for a family running out of options.

The hope is that Hannah’s body will remember how to connect with her mother’s from the time of pregnancy and will accept the transplant.

“With a (transplant), ideally you’re not supposed to have cancer in your system,” Roost said.

Meanwhile, a dance at the Langford Legion this Saturday (March 22) will raise money for the Hannah Day Trust Account. Hannah’s parents have taken time off work and are renting accommodation in Vancouver to be with her.

The dance, organized by motorcycle club Solo Independent Riders, features local band Monkey Wrench, a 50/50 draw and a silent auction.

“The little girl is not doing too good, so we have made Hannah an honorary family member of SIR,” said club president Kim DuPont.

“We just wanted to help out. It’s just what our group represents. We want to help out the community.”

Tickets are on sale at the Langford Legion, 761 Station Ave., or at the door on the night of the dance.

Doors open at 7 p.m. with music starting at 8:30.kwells@goldstream

Getting something done is often a matter of finding the right person for the right job.

Along those lines, the Town of View Royal wants to estab-lish an organizing body to guide the selfless efforts of View Royal volunteers. Tentatively named Volunteer View Royal, the group is intended to encourage com-munity engagement and help get more projects off the ground.

Councillors Ron Mattson and David Screech are in the pro-cess of forming a committee to design the program and get the ball rolling.

“There are a lot of things we

want to do. Some of them we haven’t been doing because of the cost,” Mattson said.

Many jobs are quick fixes, including scheduling work par-ties for parks or beach cleanups, or such natural restoration work as removing invasive species and maintaining trails.

Mattson envisions the com-mittee working with the town to identify other volunteer oppor-tunities – with the town, local organizations or individuals – then connecting willing workers to those jobs.

“People want to volunteer; they’re looking for things to do. They’re not looking for perma-nent, long-term commitments, but they like to have activities

they can go work on,” he said.An organized structure would

also help connect people with specific skill sets who are willing to volunteer for particular jobs in the community.

Mattson and Screech already have ideas for the initiative, but want to leave the program’s design up to members of the new committee.

Committee members would meet about once a month for six to eight months, with the poten-tial for time beyond that.

For more information call Mattson at 250-479-7754 (email: [email protected]) or Screech at 250-479-1782 (email: [email protected])[email protected]


View Royal hopes to match volunteers with jobs

CorrectionThe subhead for a story on page A7 of the March

14 Gazette (No imminent job action despite over-whelming teachers’ vote) did not match the detail in the story. The subhead should have read “Offer of 6.5 % raise over six years on table.”

OUR VIEW

Canada’s sleek, imported green propaganda machine rolled into the capital last week for a couple of days of meetings.

You wouldn’t have heard about it, because they didn’t stage any protests or press conferences. Instead they met quietly with selected reporters as well as politicians from both sides of the aisle. They didn’t invite me for some reason, but from what I can gather, it was a friendly networking session.

When I speak of our U.S.-directed environmental movement, many people still don’t know what I mean. They see the sign-waving on TV and assume it’s all spontaneous, driven by passionate volunteers. Nuke the Whales for Jesus, as we used to joke in the 1970s.

It’s an industry now, and as with our automotive industry, Canada is a branch plant of the U.S.

The Victoria event was an annual conference called Organizing for Change, sponsored by Tides Canada. Thanks mainly to the work of B.C. researcher Vivian Krause, this offshoot of the U.S. Tides Foundation now at least identifies itself while it pulls B.C.’s political strings.

Organizing for Change currently includes Ecojustice, Greenpeace, Sierra Club B.C., ForestEthics Advocacy, ForestEthics Solutions, Georgia Strait Alliance, Dogwood Initiative, Pembina Institute, West Coast Environmental Law, Wildsight

and Seattle-based Conservation Northwest.

Tides is itself a front for wealthy charitable foundations based mostly in Seattle and California, funded by billionaires who see “saving” B.C. as their personal eco-project.

Their hired activists met with Environment Minister Mary Polak to discuss her just-introduced Water Sustainability Act. This was to demand heavy fees and choking regulations on water used

for “fracking,” that nefarious gas drilling technology so demonized in fake documentaries and celebrity protests.

Tides no longer attempts to hide its strategy of targeting energy development in B.C. and Alberta. Its tactics are well known, too. Environmentalists need high-profile wins, and the economic pain is best inflicted outside of the U.S., the biggest polluter in world history.

Organizing for Change’s stated priorities for the year are the “last stand of the Great Bear Rainforest,” the “Sacred Headwaters” and the Water Sustainability Act.

Professional protesters are mainly just taking credit for the 2012 buy-back of Shell’s coalbed gas licences around the headwaters of the Nass, Skeena and Stikine Rivers. Tahltan Central Council declared that territory theirs in 1910, and having pros roll in with slogans and graphics wasn’t exactly crucial to the outcome.

Their greatest marketing success so far is the Great Bear Rainforest, which is continually portrayed as being in peril from hunting, logging and of course, oil and gas development.

One of the documents Krause unearthed is a 2008 plan entitled “Tar Sands Campaign Strategy 2.1” that has proven remarkably prophetic. As Greenpeace, Sierra and ForestEthics were negotiating the 2007 Great Bear land use plan, other network members were preparing to “raise the negatives” and market Alberta as a unique threat to planetary integrity.

I’ve written before about the distortions and evasions required to present such a fossil fuel fairy tale. Suffice it to say that while we have busloads of protesters in B.C., you don’t see them in those benevolent petro-states Angola, Iran, Iraq, Libya, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, Venezuela, Kuwait or Algeria. They’re not saving the whole planet, just the safe and lucrative parts.

And as I mentioned after the protester-staged Neil Young concert tour, it’s amazing how American oil and gas interests and Alaska oil tankers remain invisible to this sophisticated network.

NDP environment critic Spencer Chandra Herbert met with the green machine too. He wants all of B.C.’s groundwater mapped and measured deep into the Earth’s crust. That should take a while.

Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com.

Green machine gathers in B.C.

‘Protesters aren’t saving the whole planet, just the safe and lucrative parts.’

CRA cuts make tax time worse

It’s tax time again, a point on the calendar that most Canadians dread. Pulling together our receipts, filling out forms and paying for help are not activities we usually embrace.

While the Canada Revenue Agency is probably not on everyone’s Favourite Government Agencies list, the CRA has been able to help out taxpayers by supplying tax forms, advice and one-on-one help for those of us who can’t afford professional help or just find filling out paperwork a challenge.

This role, like many other federal government programs, has been sharply curtailed in recent years as the feds continue to download responsibilities to the provinces, cities and non-profit groups. They have cut back on the availability of paper forms, pushing the citizenry to online tax filing.

This particular trend has hit a couple of groups harder than others: seniors, lower income individuals and those with disabilities.

These groups, for obvious reasons, may have a harder time dealing with online forms, understanding advice delivered via the phone or finding the extra funds to pay for an accountant’s help.

It’s exceptionally curious in the case of seniors, a demographic that has traditionally been supportive of the current Conservative government. This is a group that has not grown up with computers, is less likely to own one and faces diminished financial resources and health issues that can complicate communication that is not face-to-face.

Luckily, volunteer groups have stepped up to fill the governments’ responsibilities. Several local non-profits, such as the Together Against Poverty Society, James Bay New Horizons, Silver Threads and the Victoria Cool Aid Society, offer tax preparation clinics and advice.

Kudos to these organizations for their efforts, but the need for them highlights a troubling trend. The feds continue to turn their back on some of our most vulnerable citizens and in an area that we are forced, by law, to deal with.

Unlike the federal government, Canadian citizens can’t walk away from our tax responsibilities.

LETTERSServices amalgamation request a serious matter

Re: Non-binding View Royal referendum on service integration

It is a mark of civic maturity and confidence that Councillors John Rogers, Ron Mattson and Heidi Rast have properly understood the request to have a non-binding referendum question on the ballot this fall.

A ‘yes’ or ‘no’ response from residents would provide policy direction only to the municipality. It’s an effective tool for local government to determine the depth of support for integrating services with other municipalities, and serves as a basis upon which the province will fund unbiased studies to determine the feasibility, benefits and costs. Ultimately, any changes to municipal organizations would require a binding referendum in 2018 or beyond.

To date, the cities of Victoria and Colwood have committed to placing a question on the ballot. Others will no doubt follow.

It is most appropriate that council members discuss this issue in an open and

transparent manner.While Mayor Graham Hill

has the right to his opinion, his approach to the request at the March 11 committee meeting was paternalistic, and in some instances, cavalier.

This was a disappointment to audience members and those who addressed council in a thoughtful and articulate manner.

Both online and paper petitions supporting a non-binding referendum are currently underway in Greater Victoria and have received thousands of signatures. It should come as no surprise that to date the highest percentage of eligible voters who voted in 2011 and signed the petition are from View Royal.

By placing a non-binding referendum question on the ballot, the democratic rights of residents are affirmed and they are able to exercise their electoral franchise. The mayor and council are servants of the people of the View Royal community, and as such, future deliberations must be conducted in a respectful manner, with

community interests placed above self-interest.

TB Reach programfine aid example

One of Canada’s finest foreign assistance achievements is TB Reach, a grassroots health organization dedicated to help tuberculosis sufferers missed by other programs: those who are physically isolated and difficult to treat.

There are an estimated three million of these people worldwide, with each untreated sufferer eventually infecting up to 10 other people.

Canada is the only major funder of TB Reach. Our federal government already does great work fighting this ancient scourge through the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB and Malaria, but TB Reach is Canada’s own gift to the world.

Currently, TB Reach is short about $200 million, spread over five years. I sincerely hope that on March 24, World TB Day, Canada

pledges to complete funding of TB Reach and help save the lives of those last three million.

Construction of a new $30-million trades school kicked off with

fanfare last week at Camosun College’s Interurban campus.

B.C. Advanced Edu-cation Minister Amrik Virk joined faculty, staff

and students in break-ing ground on the Cen-tre for Trades Educa-

tion and Innovation.The 7,432-square-

metre building will house a marine and metal trades train-ing program that will include teach welding, sheet metal, metal fab-rication, nautical and shipbuilding and more.

Existing trades facili-ties will also be refur-bished as part of the project.

The new facility will accommodate an addi-tional 370 full-time equivalent students in trades training pro-grams.

Currently, the college has more than 2,200 students each year in 20 different trades foun-dation and apprentice-ship programs.

“This new facility will help propel our college and our region to the very forefront of trades education and innova-tion,” said Camosun College president Kath-ryn Laurin.

“Not only will it allow Camosun to expand into new program areas like renewable energy and ship building, but it will provide our trades

students the unique opportunity to learn from related disciplines like business and tech-nology, and take part in practical, hands-on experiences through our emerging partner-ships with industry.”

The centre is expected to be com-pleted by the summer of 2015.

Renovations to the Jack White and John Drysdale buildings are expected to be done by spring 2016.

Laura LavinNews staff

The University of Vic-toria’s Phoenix Theatre takes audiences to small town Saskatchewan this month in its production of Kevin Kerr’s Governor General’s Award-winning play Unity (1918).

Kerr’s play focuses on young Beatrice (played by Amy Culliford), her sis-ters Mary (Gillian McCo-nnell) and Sissy (Haley Garnett) as the end of the First World War is over-shadowed by a pandemic sweeping the nation.

While chronicling the Spanish influenza that slashed the country’s population killing an esti-mated 30,000 to 50,000 Canadians on the heels of the First World War, the play is a touching and pragmatic portrayal of the citizens of the iso-lated town of Unity, Sask. Accounts of fear and death are intertwined with moments of joy and desire, as told through the pages of Beatrice’s diary.

Not for the easily squeamish, the play, at three hours with a 15-minute intermission, is also not for the easily tired. The production includes many scenes of death, bodies wrapped in bloody cloth including a severed head; one perilously long scene is performed in complete darkness.

The engaging student cast, inven-tive production and set design along

with excellent musical accompani-ment by Francis Melling however, keep the audience in rapt attention for the duration.

The play delves into the topics of relationships, love, sex and death with a dollop of black humour grate-fully provided by Danielle Florence and Marisa Nielsen, as telephone operators Doris and Rose.

Kerr, assistant theatre professor at UVic, also directed the play he orig-inally wrote in 2000 as playwright-in-residence at Vancouver’s Touch-stone Theatre.

Fear is part of the backdrop in Unity, but in the foreground is desire: desire for love, for intimacy, for understanding and for home, Kerr said.

[email protected]

Prairie life chronicled in playn Unity (1918) plays nightly (8 p.m.) at UVic’s Phoenix Theatre until March 22. Call 250-721-8000 for tickets.

SPORTSNEWSIN BRIEF

Island Junior B finalan all-south affair

The Peninsula Panthers erased a 3-2 series deficit with two straight wins over the Comox Valley Glacier Kings to secure a spot in the Vancouver Island Junior Hockey League playoff finals.

Saturday’s 2-1 win in Cour-tenay completed the come-back and put the Panthers in a best-of-seven showdown with two-time defending champion Victoria Cougars.

The Cougars host Game 1 tomorrow (March 20), 7 p.m. at Archie Browning Sports Centre in Esquimalt. Game 2 shifts to Panorama Recreation Centre in North Saanich on Friday. Puck drop is 7:30 p.m.

Victoria teen namedto rugby 7s team

Aaron Hersant, who hails from Victoria but attends and plays for Brentwood College, has been named to the B.C. Elite Youth Sevens team travel-ling to Hong Kong next week.

The under-18 squad will try to defend its title at the Stan-dard Chartered Bank Interna-tional Youth Sevens tourna-ment March 27.

While there the juniors will take in Team Canada games in the Hong Kong Sevens senior event. That team trains at City Centre Park in Langford and includes nine players compet-ing for club teams in Greater Victoria.

Tips for pet eyecareLike humans, our pets are also prone to

common eye problems such as glaucoma, cat-aracts, and corneal ulcers or lacerations (most often resulting from scratches). For instance, most dogs suffer from farsightedness or astig-matism, but since they normally just fetch, and do not read newspapers, we rarely hear them complain. Proper eye health care is just as im-portant for animals as it is for humans.

Here are some tips for keeping your pet’s eyes in top form: keep your pet from sticking its head outside car windows; flying debris and dust particles can cause eye injury or irritation. Regularly check for persistent eye discharge or inflammation. If your pet displays these symp-toms, or demonstrates peculiar behavior such as trying to rub its eyes, or bumping into objects, you should have your pet’s eyes checked by a veterinarian. Two legged pets that talk still need to see the Optometrist!

The Capital Regional District’s Seaterra program unveiled its 18-kilometre route for a sewage sludge pipeline between the two major proposed sewage plants.

The conveyance pipeline would run from a wastewater treatment

plant at McLoughlin Point through Esquimalt, Victoria and parts of Saanich to a biosolids plant at Hartland landfill. Interurban Road would be the most affected road-way during construction.

The pipeline route, which

requires the installation of 18 km of underground pipes in both direc-tions, would run entirely within existing right-of-ways for the three municipalities, according to a Seat-erra press release.

An Environmental Impact Study

for the conveyance pipe will be completed in the coming months, the release stated. Upcoming infor-mation sessions for nearby neigh-bours are being organized and will be announced in the coming weeks.
