School district backs off middle school planBy Alicia BridgesTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

HAZELTON - The Coast Moun-tains School District board has buckled to community pressure and delayed indefinitely a plan to move elementary grade stu-dents to the Hazelton Secondary School.

Responding to backlash from parents and teachers, the school board last week voted to absolve the Hazelton/Kitwanga Grade Reconfiguration Commit-tee mandated to “reconfigure” grades at schools in the area.

The committee of teachers and parents had been created by the school district to help imple-ment a plan to move some el-ementary school students to the high school.

The decision to absolve the

committee was made after it pre-sented its progress in a report at the Feb. 18 school board meet-ing.

In the report, chairperson Ja-net Meyer put forward a motion that the district office carry out more consultation before estab-lishing a middle school model but it was defeated.

Instead the board adopted a new motion put forward by Ha-zelton school board trustee Shar McCrory, who was also acting board chair at the meeting.

The new mandate absolves the reconfiguration committee and makes no mention of chang-ing grade configuration at Hazel-tons schools.

“Coast Mountains School District 82 strives for improved graduation rates for all learners, including those in the Hazelton/

Kitwanga region,” it reads. “In an attempt to address the graduation rates in the Hazelton/Kitwanga area, public community consul-tation will be explored for pos-sible interventions.”

McCrory said she put for-ward a new motion because she wanted the phrasing to be more specific.

“I wanted it to be very clear ... where we are going from here, that it was to community consul-tation and I didn’t feel that was quite reflected in the original mo-tion,” she said.

She said she could not com-ment on why there was a per-ceived lack of consultation in the first instance because she was not a trustee when the reconfigura-tion plan was made.

McCrory said a reconfigura-tion would still take place but any

changes would be informed by more community consultation.

“The [gist] of it is that we’re striving to improve graduation rates and that the Hazelton Kit-wanga area needs to look at pub-lic community consultation in or-der to improve those graduates rates,” she said.

“The community has spoken and what I’ve heard from com-munity groups, members and various organizations and indi-viduals is that they were not con-sulted for this reconfiguration scenario that was put forward by the board. I think there was just different perception. The board thought that they were consulted and the communities didn’t feel that they were.”

Regional district meeting briefsDEASE LAKE - The Dease Lake airport could be getting its runway resurfaced soon thanks to a unanimous vote from the regional district to apply for a Northern Development Initiatives Trust at the board’s monthly meeting Feb. 20.

Telegraph Creek director Dave Brocklebank said planes can’t even go to the refuelling station because of the deterioration and that affects waterbombers too. City councillor and regional district chair Sta-cey Tyers said she has heard horror stories about the airport there.

TERRACE - Terrace rural area director Jessica McCallum-Miller offered up a motion for the re-gional district to provide constituents within Areas E and C, Thornhill and the Terrace rural area, respect-fully, with information packages on recycling and on subsidizing fees for seniors and disabled individuals. The package would provide details about how the garbage and recycling works and provide those who can’t afford the waste management program to ex-plore the option of subsidizing these costs.

Since a committee is being formed to help resid-nets understand the waste managemnet program, the motion was amended with McCallum-Miller’s agreement to say that regional district staff work-ing with the committee will work on � nding ways to subsidize seniors and those on disability.

STEWART - Stewart mayor Galina Durant said she had put her name forward and been appointed to a provincial health advisory committee that was looking at piloting a paramedic program. If the board has any input, concerns or suggestions, she invited the directors to bring them to her.

HAZELTONS - rural area director Linda Pierre said she’d been appointed to the seniors advisory committee for the north that would be holding its � rst meeting in March and also people to bring for-ward seniors’ issues from the area to her.

Advocacy group kicks off in TerraceTERRACE - A national or-ganization which lobbies for social programs and which opposes privatization of public services now has a lo-cal chapter.

Nearly 20 people attend-ed a meeting leading to a lo-cal chapter being formed of the Council of Canadians Feb. 9.

Council organizer Brigette De Pape from Van-couver spoke about the council’s goals and Skeena – Bulkley Valley NDP MP Nathan Cullen gave a few words, says Al Lehmann, one of the locals involved.

“Given the general so-

cial drift in Canada toward diminished social programs, lopsided trade agreements, and weakened protections for rivers and lakes (not to mention threats to our Pa-ci� c coast), the Council has much work to do,” said Lehmann.

And while Cullen may have made an appearance, Lehmann said the Council of Canadians is not speci� cally af� liated with any political party on the provincial or na-tional level. The chapter cur-rently plans to meet on the � rst Monday of each month at 6 p.m. in the art gallery at the Terrace Public Library.

Province to have oversight of federal port lands for LNG By Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - The provincial government has introduced legisla-tion that would allow it to oversee LNG-related development on feder-al port lands, including lands man-aged by the Prince Rupert Port Au-thority.

The Federal Port Development Act, Bill 12, introduced Feb. 16, extends provincial authority and the application of provincial law to

projects such as those proposed by Pacific NorthWest LNG and BG Group as they are located on port authority land. For example, agree-ments under the act would detail how the B.C. Oil and Gas Commis-sion would oversee development and operations of LNG facilities at a federally regulated port.

Minister of Natural Gas Devel-opment Rich Coleman said this leg-islation provides additional certain-ty to the developing LNG industry in B.C.

“Proponents will be able to in-vest in a facility knowing the rules that apply and provincial officials will ensure LNG operations are safe and environmentally sound,” he said.

However, North Coast MLA Jennifer Rice says the new legisla-tion leaves more questions than an-swers.

“Would this legislation mean a port-related project would go through the federal government’s/port’s environmental assessment

process or the province’s?” she questioned while acknowledging it could help speed up the process.

“The goal, I think, is to simplify the regulatory regime for LNG pro-ponents so that the proponents are dealing directly with the province and any regulations that the prov-ince makes, instead of dealing with both the Province and the federal government ... for Prince Rupert and Port Edward, that might mean FIDs are made sooner.”

Skeena – Bulkley Valley MP

Nathan Cullen said he doesn’t have a problem with the provincial gov-ernment becoming involved with federal port lands, but wasn’t a fan of how the federal government ap-proved its portion of the deal.

“Part of my concern was how it was passed through government as part of a 450 page omnibus bill ... but if it brings the decision mak-ing closer to the community then it is something I am in favour of with the caveat that it includes real con-sultation,” he said.

KITIMAT — A $10,000 cheque presented to the Kitimat General Hospital Foundation from RBC, which will go towards the purchase of IV Infu-sion Pumps for the hospital. From left to right are: Fern Fontes (RBC), Doug Thomson, Corinne Scott, RBC Branch Manager Shirley Breuker, Colleen Vel-ho, Phyllis Rooney, Mario Feldhoff and Jacqui Phelps.

Financial infusion for an IV purchaseSubmittedTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

KITIMAT - The Kitimat Gen-eral Hospital Foundation was the recipient of a $10,000 grant from RBC as the second installment of a $20,000 Community Funding grant approved by RBC in 2014.

The cheque was presented to members of the Kitimat General Hospital Foundation on Febru-ary 24, 2015 by Shirley Breuk-er, Branch Manager of the Royal Bank of Canada in Kitimat.

Chairperson, Corinne Scott stated “the funds received from

RBC are a welcome addition to the 2014/2015 fund raising cam-paign to raise $50,000 for IV In-fusion Pumps.

“The money received from RBC will cover the cost of two specialized Infusion Pumps re-quired for Home Care Support. Eight additional Infusion Pumps are required for the Emergency Room and Acute Care areas of the Kitimat General Hospital.

The Kitimat General Hospital Foundation is grateful for the sup-port of RBC in ensuring that local medical equipment is state of the art and medical services in Kiti-mat remain exceptional into the

future.”Hospital Foundation mem-

bers on hand to receive the grant were Corinne Scott, Chairper-son, Doug Thomson, Vice Chair, and Mario Feldhoff and Phyllis Rooney, Directors.

The Kitimat General Hospital Foundation is a volunteer organi-zation that has raised more than $140,000 to support health care for the citizens of Kitimat. All funds raised go towards projects either speci� ed by the donors, or determined in collaboration with the Medical Staff and Northern Health to be of immediate bene� t to patients.

No lobbyists neededVICTORIA - When Andrew Wilkinson started the year in his new job as advanced education minister, he knew B.C. universities hired lobbyists to pitch ex-pansion plans to government.

Wilkinson was one of those lobbyists in his role as a lawyer in private practice, before being elected MLA for Vancouver-Quilchena in 2013.

Under attack for the second day in question pe-riod at the B.C. legislature, Wilkinson said Tuesday the practice of universities hiring expensive consul-tants to speak to the government that funds and regu-lates them should come to an end.

“It’s been abundantly clear since I took this role that access to my ministry and to me is unlimited for all the institutions,” Wilkinson told the legislature. He said he will advise all B.C. post-secondary in-stitutions that they don’t need lobbyists, but as inde-pendent institutions it will be up to them to decide.


BC Hydro is planning to replace the transmission line between Terrace and Kitimat, which is reaching the end of its useful life.

We have now selected our preferred option for carrying out this project, which is to build a new line along the west side of the Kitimat Valley. This decision was based on environmental, archaeological, design, cost and other studies, as well as feedback received during consultation with First Nations, local governments and interested members of the public.

You are invited to attend a public meeting to find out more about the preferred option and the next steps BC Hydro will take in carrying out this project.

Regional district board fed up with groupBy Margaret SpeirsTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

TERRACE - Kitimat-Stikine regional district directors are seeking le-gal advice to stop what they say is a continual flow of harassment by a group questioning its long-standing plan to dramatically change the way garbage is handled in the area.

The decision came after RCMP officers briefly appeared at the regional district’s Feb. 20 meeting at which were members of Resi-dents Advocating for a Sustainable Inclu-sive Environment (Ra-faSIE) who queried the decision by the board to borrow $17 million for a new superdump at Forceman Ridge just off of Hwy37 South toward Kitimat.

The officers soon left but their appearance was prompted by indi-viduals who had been at-tending a series of talks by the regional district on its garbage and recy-cling plans.

At the last of the talks held, Jan. 29, Sean Bujtas, a City of Terrace councillor, ended up asking a person to step outside of the meeting so they could talk and the presenter could con-tinue.

Regional district staff members and con-sultants should be pro-tected from harassment and bullying, said James Cordeiro, another City of Terrace councillor who also sits on the re-gional district board.

He said the region-

al district has respond-ed to numerous letters from people and from delegations over the last months and has an-swered the same ques-tions over and over again.

“There is no effort to hear the answer and weigh those answers in a rational manner,” Cor-deiro said, adding that some people had made up their minds, leav-ing no chance to change their minds.

His Feb. 20 motion reads, in part, to seek le-gal advice “to determine if these relentlessly dis-ruptive and repetitive delegations, their con-duct towards the board, staff and consultants, and the perpetual queries with respect to questions more than adequately answered by the board and administration con-stitutes harassment and an unacceptable admin-istrative burden ….”

The regional dis-trict’s master plan, in which the City of Ter-race is to be a partici-pant, would close the city’s dump on Kalum Lake Drive and convert the regional district’s own dump in Thornhill into a transfer station for waste handling.

Garbage would then be trucked to the new Forceman Ridge while material that can be re-cycled would be shipped out of the area.

While the city’s own recycling pro-gram, brought into last spring, is working fairly smoothly, there’s been opposition to the region-al district’s own pro-

gram for Thornhill and the rural area surround-ing Terrace and south to Lakelse Lake.

That plan was late in being introduced in the latter part of 2014.

Among other chang-es, Thornhill and rural residents are now paying $200 a year for the recy-cling service, a fee that’s made residents unhappy.

Residents had been responsible for their own garbage disposal and had either hired a service or took their re-fuse to the dump.

As well, the group RafaSIE has been asking questions about the eco-nomic and environmen-tal viability of the whole program.

Speaking at the Feb. 20 meeting, regional district chair Stacey Ty-ers, who is also a City of Terrace councillor, said there are growing con-cerns over how board members and staffers are being treated.

“No one in the pub-lic has to put up with that,” she said of letters and comments, some of which are described as being abusive.

“If my boss ever spoke like that, I’d have a lawsuit.”

When people’s rights are being impeded upon, the ones doing it need to be stopped, she added.

Thornhill director Ted Ramsey said he’s listened to all the ques-tions and can’t believe there’s such a disconnect between the board and the public.

“I don’t know what else the board can do,”

he said, referring to all the ways the board pro-vides information to the public.

“How do we get the information to the pub-lic so they understand it. It seems almost im-possible. Given that, I’m prepared to support councillor Cordeiro’s motion.”

Cordeiro’s motion was backed by every re-gional district director except for Jessica Mc-Callum-Miller who rep-resents the rural area, excluding Thornhill, around Terrace.

She asked that her vote be recorded.

McCallum-Miller also proposed a motion, which was accepted by

her fellow board mem-bers, to provide informa-tion packages to Thorn-hill and rural residents on garbage and recy-cling fee subsidies for seniors and disabled in-dividuals.

“Areas E and C con-stituents are also share-holders as taxpayers of our solid waste man-agement facility – some are living off of old age pension or disability and need information as well as the option of subsi-dizing costs they can-not afford.” This mo-tion will be presented to a committee that’s being formed to engage the residents more in the process of solid waste management.

Aurora LNG begins its public feedback processBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - Residents got their � rst chance to provide feedback on Aurora LNG’s proposed Digby Island terminal on Feb. 18, with people packing the North Coast Conven-tion Centre throughout the evening.

Aurora LNG is proposing to construct an export facility with two trains having an ini-tial capacity for between � ve million and six million tonnes per annum each, along with up to three storage tanks and two marine berths. Based on demand, those � gures could grow to four trains with capacity of up to 24 mil-lion tonnes of LNG per year and a third load-ing berth. The company hopes to � le its envi-ronmental assessment by the end of the year, with a � nal investment decision coming as early as 2017.

Attendees of the open house were able to talk to Nexen staff about studies being un-dertaken as part of the environmental assess-ment and employment and training opportu-nities, as well as express their concerns about the project. Nexen director of regulatory, stakeholder and aboriginal relations Shannon Young said the company was happy with how the evening went.

“We were pleased with the strong com-munity turnout for the open house and the di-verse representation of the community from residents, business owners and members of the local First Nations community. We were happy to see a high level of interest in the project and people came with a lot of good questions seeking project information,” she said, adding people can expect to hear more from Aurora LNG in the near future.

“We are in the very early stages of the site assessment work on Digby Island, which is the potential site for terminal, and the very early stages of the environmental assessment process. This was our � rst public open house, but we will be having our � rst environmental assessment open house in mid-April and will continue to have a number of open houses and other opportunities for public input in the fu-ture ... we will be opening a community of� ce within the Coastal Business Centre and will be looking to hire for positions locally for that of� ce. We are also meeting with local and re-

gional educational institutions and working with them to look at training opportunities for the community and surrounding First Nations communities.”

Among those at the event were a group called the Friends of Digby Island, which in-cluded a number of Dodge Cove residents in-cluding regional district representative Des Nobels. Nobels said the company was very open with the group, including meeting with Dodge Cove residents for several hours the night before, but said the Friends of Digby Island are steadfast in their desire to halt the project.

“We have told them we are not opposed to continuing to discuss this issue, but we are going to continue to oppose this project in any way that we can,” he said, adding Nexen isn’t necessarily the target.

“Our � ght is really not with the company, unfortunately. The company is operating un-der the rules, regulations and stipulations that have been set out for it. Our real argument and � ght is with the province, who has put forward an ill-conceived and poorly planned operative. They yelled ‘gold rush’ essentially and threw the doors open. It’s just irrespon-sible.”

SHAUN THOMAS / THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

More than 100 people came out to � nd out more about the proposed Aurora LNG terminal on Digby Island.

CN, Unifor reach agreementBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - A lockout of more than 4,800 CN Rail employees has been averted after a tentative agreement between the com-pany and Unifor was reached late last night.

CN had set an 11 p.m. deadline before the lockout would be implements, and both the company and the unions say they are thankful

things didn’t reach that point. “This settlement forecloses the prospect

of a potential labour disruption that would have harmed CN’s employees, its customers and the Canadian economy,” said CN presi-dent and CEO Claude Mongeau.

“We were able to � nd solutions to the concerns raised by our members – this is best achieved at the bargaining table,” said Unifor president Jerry Dias.

Feds offer up LNG tax breaksBy Tom FletcherTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

OTTAWA - The federal government is offering tax breaks for equipment and buildings for liquefied nat-ural gas production.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper announced the tax breaks in Surrey Thursday with Industry Minis-ter James Moore and three B.C. MPs.

LNG producers will be granted capital cost al-lowances of 30 per cent on equipment and 10 per cent on buildings, which reduce their income tax to offset construction costs. The standard rate for cap-ital cost allowance is eight per cent for equipment and six per cent for buildings.

B.C. took a similar approach with its LNG in-come tax, offering credits on corporate income tax until initial plant investments are paid off.

Premier Christy Clark welcomed the federal move, which she said B.C. has lobbied hard to get as international producers have delayed final invest-ment decisions. She said the drop in oil prices has made the decision more difficult for big companies that get part of their revenue from oil, but B.C. is competitive on LNG.

“We’re already more competitive than Austra-lia,” Clark said. “Our real main competition in the world is the U.S. and the west coast of North Amer-ica.”

NDP natural gas critic Bruce Ralston said the

front-end tax credits are the right approach to take, but the federal tax break doesn’t change the econom-ic conditions for B.C. trying to enter a global energy market.

“Our objections are the same,” Ralston said. “If LNG proponents want, as one proponent did, 70 per cent temporary foreign workers, and 70 per cent of the [greenhouse gas] emissions are not being count-ed, then we don’t support the plan.”

David Keane, president of the BC LNG Alliance, said the federal decision is encouraging and the in-dustry continues to work with First Nations and oth-er local governments to develop.

Heritage Park Museum founders honouredBy Rod LinkTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

TERRACE - Close to 50 people gathered at Heri-tage Park Feb. 19 to rec-ognize Mamie and Fred Kerby, the couple who spearheaded its forma-tion more than 30 years ago.

A tea was held and those attending were able to view a plaque placed inside the park’s Kalum Hotel building commemorating the couple, now deceased.

Children Eva, Nor-ma and Eric Kerby were on hand as well as grandchildren for speeches and refresh-ments in the dance hall building right beside the hotel.

Fred Kerby passed away in 2006 and Ma-mie Kerby just last year.

Terrace and Dis-trict Museum Society president Grant Piffer noted the achievements of the Kerbys to rescue the eight log structures from their original lo-cations in the area and move them to what is now Heritage Park.

“Most or all of these buildings would have simply been lost forever,” said Piffer of the urgent nature of the effort to save the struc-tures which began in 1982.

The Kerbys, with daughter Norma assist-

ing, gathered up a core of volunteers, formed a society and received government grants first to move and then reas-semble the buildings.

“It was also a daunting task but one that Mamie Kerby was more than up for,” said Piffer.

He noted that the organizing capacity of Mamie Kerby matched the practical aspects Fred Kerby brought to the task of moving the buildings and secur-ing them in their new home.

As a young coun-try, Canada is still made up of stories where in-dividuals work toward a greater good, said Piffer.

“And that was cer-tainly the case of Ma-mie and Fred Kerby,” he said.

Daughter Norma recalled some of the early years of the Ter-race Regional Histori-cal Society, the soci-ety formed to move the Heritage Park plans for-ward in the early 1980s.

The philosophical foundation of the so-ciety was to preserve some of the architec-ture unique to the area, she said.

“You know, what we don’t need is an-other cement build-ing,” said Kerby of a comment made by her mother.

The effort to create Heritage Park was also assisted by job training and other grants that were available in the early 1980s when a re-cession all but closed down the local woods industry, she noted.

Locating Heritage Park where it is to-day was a logical deci-sion because the land was then owned by the province, part of the property which was once the home of Skee-naview, a care facility that was the predeces-sor to modern day Ter-raceview Lodge.

That being the case, Kerby said it could be

obtained at no cost.“My mother said

they wouldn’t miss two acres,” she remembered of the approach taken to secure the land.

It also made sense because residents of Terraceview Lodge could visit and enjoy the park, she added.

“This whole com-plex was established with a huge amount of community effort and a huge amount of com-munity support,” said Kerby.

Heritage Park’s founding society, the Terrace Regional His-torical Society, still ex-ists but the park’s oper-

ations are now handled through the Terrace and District Museum Soci-ety, which was formed in the late 1990s.

It receives finan-cial assistance from the City of Terrace and the Kitimat-Stikine region-al district.

Mayor Carol Leclerc and members of council were also at the tea as was Leah Harris, president of the Terrace Regional His-torical Society.

The plaque was paid for by the soci-ety through the assis-tance of a large dona-tion by Bill and Helene McRae.

Infrastructure woes raised by MLABy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - North Coast MLA Jennifer Rice brought the issue of Prince Rupert’s aging infrastructure to the Legislature this week, but Minister of Com-munity, Sport and Cultural De-velopment Coralee Oakes did not provide a solid answer or commit-ment regarding her concerns.

“Prince Rupert’s infrastruc-ture has crumbled while this gov-ernment has ignored it for the past decade-and-a-half. Our water sys-tem is dangerously outdated, our bridges and roads need massive improvements and, though we

will soon see toilets that � ush at the airport, it still takes residents and business owners hours to ac-cess that airport on our hopeless-ly outdated transportation system. That is driving businesses out of town,” she said during question period on Feb. 17.

“If you ask the residents of Prince Rupert, they will tell you that our infrastructure has been neglected for far too long ... my question is to the Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development: When are you � -nally going to step up and invest in the infrastructure Prince Rupert so badly needs?”

For her part, Oakes said the

City of Prince Rupert should make sure to apply for grants of-fered through the province.

“I look forward to meeting with the mayor of Prince Rupert today to talk about the Build Can-ada Project that supports local governments with infrastructure that is necessary,” she said.

“This past summer we had the opportunity to work closely with local governments and the fed-eral government to have a $2.76 billion agreement for gas tax for the next 10 years. This will sup-port local governments in need of infrastructure, whether it’s wa-ter, waste water, airports or other needed infrastructure.”

Prince Rupert ready for LNG boom: mayorBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - Should major changes come to the North Coast fol-lowing a positive final investment de-cision from any liquefied natural gas proponent, Prince Rupert Mayor Lee Brain says the city will be ready and will have the backing of industry and other levels of government.

“We have proponents and others realizing that the City of Prince Rupert has a plan and, by mid-May, we will basically have all of the ducks in a row for a variety of top-ics ranging from the air-port to infrastructure pre-paredness to housing,” he told directors at the Skee-na – Queen Charlotte Re-gional District meeting on Feb. 20.

“Before it was a pro-ponent over here doing something and a pro-ponent over here doing something and maybe the Chamber of Commerce is thinking of something and the province is think-ing something different. We have been pulling everyone in and today people realized the city has a plan. Now ev-eryone is kind of coming around us ... a lot of these problems are the city’s problems and there wasn’t this dynam-ic happening before,” he said.

“Now we have been able to get ev-eryone behind us around this plan and they are supporting us, so I am feeling a lot more optimistic about the situa-tion,” he continued.

While noting much of the plan is not yet being made available public-ly, Brain told the other directors that what he and council have put together is something that could make the com-munity at the forefront of prepared-ness in Canada and beyond.

“I think Prince Rupert has the abil-ity to be a model for how we handle hyper-economic activity ... we have the opportunity to be a leader in that and if we do it successfully it can be a global model that can be exported to other communities that will experi-ence this type of growth,” he said, add-ing the planning work of council could be beneficial regardless of a positive or negative decision.

“We’re just going to continue to be diligent and ensure that when a fi-

nal investment decision happens, everybody is looking at the same plan and there is a coordinated list of priorities that need to be funded so that this community will be able to handle it ... even if it doesn’t happen and all of this LNG stuff falls to the wayside, we have at least done a significant amount of work for us.”

Sitting just down the table from director Des Nobels, who has spoken against Pacific North-West LNG locating on Lelu Island and Aurora

LNG’s plans for a facility on Digby Island, Brain acknowledged not all in the community are supportive of the industry.

However, he said it was critically important the city be prepared despite concerns of some residents.

“Regardless of the negative or pos-itive feelings about it, it is important we are as prepared as possible so peo-ple can benefit from it as much as pos-sible. If it happens, it’s better that you have people taken care of,” he said, also acknowledging the impact the in-dustry could have on the North Coast.

“LNG is going to transform this town at a major level and Prince Ru-pert will not be recognizable when LNG goes through.”

“We will basic-ally have all of the ducks in a row...”

TransCanada provides pipeline updateBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - Although the start date of the Prince Ru-pert Gas Transmission Project is largely out of TransCanada’s hands, vice-pres-ident John Dunn told the Prince Rupert and Dis-trict Chamber of Commerce the company will be ready to go should the time come.

“ P a c i f i c NorthWest LNG is working to re-ceive their nec-essary regulato-ry approvals and it is up to our customer to look at the global and � scal environ-ment for LNG and make a posi-tive � nal investment decision. We will be ready to commence construction as soon as that oc-curs,” he said of the Lelu Island terminal that will receive gas from the line, noting construc-tion also depends on regulatory approval from the B.C. Oil and Gas Commission for the pipe-

line.Dunn said the delay in a � -

nal investment decision by the project’s lone customer does not mean TransCanada’s work on the pipeline has come to a

halt. With the company expect-ing to announce three prime con-tractors for the a p p r o x i m a t e -ly 900 kilome-tre pipeline later this year, Dunn said there is a lot going on in the background.

“One of the things that the an-nouncement in December men-tions is that both Paci� c North-

West LNG in terms of their ter-minal at Lelu Island and PRGT in terms of its pipeline are working very diligently with major constructors to drive the cost down. We are taking the opportunity with this pause in the decision to basically look at realigning the costs across the project, whether it be materi-als or whether it be suppliers,” he said.

“It is something that is very good for the project and some-thing that is keeping us very busy.”

Once the prime contractors have been announced, Trans-Canada will work to connect them with businesses across the Northwest which have regis-tered on the Prince Rupert Gas Transmission website.

“We have received over 350 vendor registrations for the line and are currently in the process of categorizing those geograph-

ically throughout the 900-plus kilometre pipeline so we can provide a list to the prime con-tractor and say ‘these are the types of services that have sub-mitted interest and these are the types of jobs they are interested in’,” explained manager of B.C. Labour and Local contracting Brent Dietmer.

“We are going to encourage the prime contractors to work with that local community in terms of those that have shown interest.”

Two Kitimat hotels to be completed by end of yearBy Cameron OrrTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

KITIMAT - Two hotels in Kitimat are slated for completion by the year’s end.

The Microtel hotel on Dadook Avenue, near Ro-sarios, is still shooting for an August opening as con-struction crews worked through the heavy snow.

The hotel, which will be branded Microtel Inn and Suites by Wyndham once opened, has even opened up for job applications for their general man-ager as they shoot for an August opening.

The company is sticking to that opening in six months, according to Eric Watson, MasterBuilt Ho-tels’ chief operating of� cer.

The plans for a secondary hotel on the site is up in the air while the company awaits news on what happens with a lique� ed natural gas industry in Kiti-mat.

“We’re certainly waiting to see what happens with LNG projects, in terms of our second hotel,” he said, which would include a restaurant.

The current hotel under construction will have 87 rooms, a meeting space, a small store for guests and will include extended stay suites.

This is among the � rst hotels by the company with this look in Canada.

The weather, beyond snow storms, hasn’t ham-pered construction, said Watson.

“The rain is one thing because you get the mois-ture...that’s just part of building in those climates, but so far we’re still on schedule,” he said.

As for the snow, “Weather was really good up until you guys got a couple inches of snow...Our guys were back at work pretty quick.”

While employment levels depends on business, he said typically their hotels have about 15 to 20 em-ployees, and there will likely be job fairs in the near future to get staff to operational levels.

Meanwhile the MStar Hotel will open before the year closes, says City Centre Mall owner Jerry Min-ni.

“All the concrete work in there has been com-pleted,” he said.

“We’re waiting for the weather to break and then they’ll start framing up top.”

The snow storm didn’t slow down the work at the MStar Hotel since work was mostly interior in the basement and main � oor but as they move to-wards working on the roof bad weather could slow them down, but it’s otherwise a pretty fast process once work begins, said Minni.

The hotel is still planned for 42 rooms, and about four months before opening they’ll begin the hiring process, including seeking a general manager.

The hotel will employ about 10 people in total, he said.

The hotel will be attached to a restaurant, and he said the space will be turned over to them sometime in October for them to set up.

Minni says improvements to the mall itself will directly follow the hotel, including � ooring, lighting, and facade improvements to the front.

“That will just happen right after the hotel. We’ll just move the crew across,” he said.

Vanderhoof tops Rupert in zones playoffsBy Kevin CampbellTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - There was a little more on the line than usual last weekend for the Prince Rupert Sea Wolves midget reps, and despite winning 4-1 on Saturday night, two losses to the Vanderhoof Bears gave them a series loss.

Battling the Bears in the � rst game of round one of the Skeena Valley zones, the Sea Wolves found themselves deadlocked in the best-of-three series, tied 3-3 after two frames with the Bears, who play re-markably similar hockey to the Ru-pertites.

The Saturday morning show-down saw the home side battle back from three de� cits, down 1-0, 2-1 and 3-2 before the second inter-mission and it seemed like the pes-ky Sea Wolves couldn’t be swatted away.

With neither team gaining an advantage over the other, the match looked like it would be coming down to the wire as Prince Rupert’s Caleb Perrie and the Bears’ Dixon Loewen were putting on a clinic with stellar goaltending between the pipes for their respective teams – one-timer after one-timer was turned aside by both masked men as the second frame came to a close.

Then, the third period hit and all bets were off.

The solid defensive play that both teams employed through the � rst two stanzas were thrown out the window in the wild, offensive shootout blitz that the third period became for both sides.

“Everything pretty much col-

lapsed,” said Austin Weir, who led Rupert’s charge with two pretty goals, deking out Loewen forehand-backhand on each one.

It only took 10 seconds for the � reworks to start in that third peri-od.

Rupert sniper Cole Atchison streaked down the left wing after the Sea Wolves won the opening face-off and wristed a laser-beam high, blocker-side on Loewen for the 4-3 advantage and Rupert’s � rst lead of the game.

Three minutes later, Keiden Archer put the Sea Wolves up two goals after he found a tiny hole in a crouching Loewen’s short-side cov-erage for the 5-3 lead.

It seemed like the Rupert squad was on their way to the 1-0 series lead, but a furious Vanderhoof at-tack came shortly thereafter.

Bears’ alternate captain Eric Silver snapped a shot past Perrie for his second of the game to cut the Wolves’ lead to 5-4.

Then, Vanderhoof’s Daulton Swanson tied the affair with a shot from the slot that cleanly beat Perrie above his blocker hand.

From that point on, it was last shot wins. Gurlivleen Sekhon blast-ed a clapper through traf� c and through Loewen’s � ve-hole with 12 minutes to go. That made it 6-5.

But three straight goals for the Bears in the last 10 minutes of the game sealed game one for Vander-hoof. Swanson completed his hat trick, tying the game at six when he banged in a loose puck out of mid-air when the Wolves’ defen-sive coverage broke down and they found themselves running around

in their own zone. Kolby Page then dangled around the Rupert defence and made a tape-to-tape pass to Sil-ver for the 7-6 lead that chased Per-rie from the net. Cole Lindsay took over, but gave up one more goal be-fore all was said and done, to Page in the dying seconds for the 8-6 Ru-pert loss.

Along with Swanson’s hatty, Silver also completed the trick as

the two combined for six of Vander-hoof’s eight goals on the day. Page had the other two.

To go with Weir’s deuce and Atchison’s and Archer’s singles, Jared Carter rounded out the scor-ing for Rupert.

“We had � re, we were just go-ing,” said Weir of the team early on.

“Me and Cole [Atchison], we had a few good shifts but we didn’t

really � nish. We couldn’t bury them all ... They try hard – they’re a good team. [We need to] work harder, play defence. That’s all.”

The team lost 6-3 in the � nal game on Sunday morning to vault Vanderhoof into the next round.

The Bears will now face the Terrace Kermodes, who defeated the Kitimat Winterhawks 10-1 and 10-7 in round one.

Marlins take on championships By Jason CathersTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

KITIMAT - Four of the six swimmers who qual-i� ed for the AA provincial championships from the Kitimat Marlins Swim Club attended Chilli-wack last weekend.

There were over 300 swimmers from across B.C. and the Yukon in attendance at the champi-onships.

The Marlins swimmers swam extremely well and all posted personal best times throughout the meet.

Leading the way for the Marlins was Alex van Horne (11) who achieved his � rst AAA pro-vincial qualifying time on his way to the gold medal in the 11 and under boys 100 meter back-stroke.

Adrianna Florit (10) had her best result in the 11 and under girls 200 meter breaststroke with a 5th place � nish.

Hayden Dobbin (15) placed in the top 8 in two events for 14 and over boys.

Dobbin placed 6th in the 1500 meter free-style and 7th in the 400m.

Ethan Velho (14) had his best results in the 14 and over boys 200 backstroke with a 14th place � nish.

Damaged from the storm, Terrace arena fends off fogBy Anna KillenTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

TERRACE - The climate inside the Hidber Arena at the Terrace Sportsplex has � uctuated since the arena’s air handling system was damaged in the big snowstorm a few weeks ago.

The weight of snow that fell off the arena roof Feb. 7 and 8 – a sight many people in the Terrace area can probably imagine – damaged the arena’s HVAC and ductwork.

That means the arena no longer has dehumidi� cation capacity, ex-plained the city’s director of leisure services Carmen Didier in an email.

And because of that, the arena glass will fog up when the weather is warm and/or wet outside.

Didier is hoping for cooler weather over the next few weeks so the condensation inside the arena won’t reach a point where it starts dripping from the ceiling onto the

ice. That’s the only way the situa-tion could affect the ice, which Di-dier says, is not damaged.

At the same time, the bleach-er heaters won’t work when the air handling system is down, meaning it is cooler for spectators.

“Our message to users has been to bring your jackets and squee-gees,” said Didier.

She said the city is doing its best to keep the Hidber Arena in op-eration and minimize the inconve-nience to those that use it, and add-ed that the main arena didn’t suffer any damage.

The city is still waiting for price estimates to repair the system, Di-dier said, adding that the repairs won’t be completed until the end of the ice season.

“Initially, the main arena ice was the � rst arena ice scheduled for removal on March 16, but in light of the damage we will be removing the Hidber ice � rst now,” she said.
