Kitselas, Enbridge ink power deal

By AnnA KIllEn

A populAR recreation site near Terrace is in danger of being closed to the public if CN can't find someone will-ing to take over the maintenance of its railroad crossing that provides access to the road leading to the site.

“If a crossing agreement is not in place by April 1, CN will close the crossing with a locked gate,” said CN spokesperson Emily Hamer last week, of the railway crossing located along Highway 16 about half-an-hour west of Terrace.

That railway crossing leads to a public road which then follows along the Exstew River into a provincial rec-reation site located on provincial crown land.

The well-used area has one of the largest waterfalls in the province, an 11-slip camping and picnic site, and plenty of opportunities for wildlife viewing, fishing, and rock climbing.

But public access could be cut off early this spring, warns a recently erected closure notice posted at the rail-road crossing.

“The crossing at Exstew is actually a private crossing that intersects with a forest service road, which is under the jurisdiction of the province,” said Hamer, of the sign's intention. “Currently CN is clarifying who will take re-sponsibility for the maintenance of the private railway crossing.”

CN is mainly concerned with the maintenance of the approaches on either side of the crossing, she said, noting that could include things like snow removal.

“A road authority needs to take responsibility for the maintenance of the railway crossing,” she said.

To that end, CN has been in discussion with the pro-vincial ministry of forests, lands, and natural resources for the last two to three months, confirmed the ministry.

By AnnA KIllEn

KITSElAS FIRST Nation, Enbridge, and a geothermal exploration company have signed a deal that could see a power-producing geother-mal plant built in the Mount layton hot springs area.

A first step was to pay $100,000 to the province earlier this year for the ex-clusive subsurface rights to 2,865 hectares of land south of lakelse lake, on tradi-tional Kitselas territory.

ll Geothermal Inc., a consortium of Kitselas, En-

bridge and Borealis Geo-power can now apply for authorization to drill in the area, and if it discovers a geothermal resource and decides to proceed with a plant, it can apply to convert the permit to a lease.

A geothermal energy plant uses steam and super-heated water found deep inside the earth to spin tur-bines which then generate electricity.

Champions of the re-source charge it as one of the most clean and reliable renewable energy sources,

although the geothermal in-dustry is still relatively small in Canada compared to other renewables like run-of-river, wind, and solar power.

But the project, which, if approved, would be the first of its kind in Canada, is still in its infancy.

“The project, and its site, must meet a number of con-ditions during its approval process,” reads an article in a recent issue of a Kitse-las First Nation newsletter. “one important condition is whether other First Nations have an interest in the area.”

lax Kw’alaams and Met-lakatla, Tsimshian First Na-tions on the North Coast, also have claims to the area, and talks are ongoing.

According to the applica-tion filed with the provincial government, the site also overlaps an area identified by the Haisla of Kitamaat Village as being traditional territory.

The regional district of Kitimat-Stikine and the City of Terrace also want to be included in discussions sur-rounding exploration and development.

There had been interest in geothermal development in the lakelse lake area as far back as 1991 but the re-gional district called for a halt of any exploratory drill-ing plans after Mount lay-ton owner Bert orleans said his water source could be threatened.

But in 2009, the prov-ince put a number of poten-tial geothermal sites on of-fer, including the area near lakelse lake, although it wasn’t until late 2012 that it received interest in the site. The government then

proceeded with a new pre-tenure referral in May 2013.

Tim Thompson, CEo of Calgary-based Borealis, said the hot springs in the Mount layton area are the hottest in Canada.

“We’ve been interested in the area since we became incorporated as a company (in 2007),” he said. “Since before that probably.”

This also isn’t the first time Enbridge has taken an interest in renewable energy here.

Rec site access could be cutBut the ministry isn’t

considering taking over the maintenance at this time because the road over the crossing is a road permit road, not a forest service road, said Greig Bethel, a public relations officer for the ministry.

“The road is the re-sponsibility of the road permit holder, which in this case is Coast Tsim-shian Resources LP,” he continued.

“If for some rea-son in the future Coast Tsimshian decides they no longer want that road permit, the ministry would look at options at that time.”

According to Coast Tsimshian Resources (CTR), which is owned by the Lax Kw’alaams First Nation, it might be time for the ministry to begin looking at op-tions.

“As recreational ac-cess may be impacted by such a closure, CTR is hopeful that CN will seek an arrange-ment that will continue to keep this crossing open,” reads a press re-lease sent out by CTR last Friday.

The company doesn’t intend to enter into an arrangement to maintain the road as it hasn’t needed the road in nearly five years.

“CTR has not need-ed this road permit since 2010,” explained CTR representative Dave Jackson, noting the company has no active logging permits that would require use of the road.

“CTR has no eco-nomic reason to keep the road permit open, but for goodwill we have maintained por-tions of the road for the past four years to allow continued public access to the forest service camp ground,” he said.

“Perhaps the forest service may wish to take over the crossing and then establish the road tenure as a [forest service road] to ensure the public has continued access.”

Skeena NDP MLA Robin Austin, whose office has been fielding complaints from con-cerned area residents, said someone needs to take responsibility for the crossing.

“They’re very upset because they’re people who have taken their families to use the park

up there, the forestry park, and have been go-ing for years and want to be able to continue to take their family mem-bers to that park,” he said, of the constituents

he has heard from over the last two weeks.

“They’re very con-cerned that if the road is closed they’re going to have no access to what has been a very nice

place to go in the sum-mer.”

He has been working with North Coast NDP MLA Jennifer Rice to find out more details about the closure no-

tice, and options going forward.

“I certainly believe that there can’t be a clo-sure of this road without any sort of public con-sultation,” said Austin.

Former head librarianremembered for vision

FILE PHOTO

ED CURELL was the head librarian at the Ter-race Public Library for 29 years.

THE FORMER head librarian of the Terrace Public Library who passed away suddenly last week is being re-membered for taking the library into the com-puter and digital age.

Ed Curell, who re-tired in 2008 after 29 years with the library, was on holidays with his wife Wendy. He was 67.

“I couldn’t believe it when I heard it,” said Willie Schneider, who was chair of the library board in 1979 when Curell was hired, of his death.

“He was quite hands-on in the library,” said Schneider. “He was a very laid back man, very friendly man. He was very concerned about his staff and al-ways concerned about the budget.”

First built as a Cana-dian Centennial project in 1967, the structure was expanded in 1995 with Schneider and Curell working to raise money and crafting how the facility would look.

George Clark � rst got to know Curell when he was on city council in the early 1980s and acted as the city’s representative on the library board.

“I was supposed to represent the interests of the city but I think I ended up defending the interests of the library instead,” Clark recalled.

“That’s the kind of person Ed was – very passionate, very quiet and very effective.”

Clark credits Curell for moving the library

beyond being a book re-pository.

“He made sure the library was not only up to date with changes but that it was ahead of the curve,” he said.

“Videos, CDs, au-diobooks. He made the library a place not just to read but to research. Computers were there for free use. He very quickly got with the computer age,” said Clark.

Former co-workers and friends also paid tribute to Curell with many calling him a

mentor.“He was a tireless

advocate, who worked long hours, paid at-tention to details and was always able to see the potential in others and in the library as a whole. His vision led Terrace Public Library to be the � rst library in the northwest to offer videos for borrowing and to implement the � rst automated library system,” said current child and youth services librarian Jess Dafoe.

Current head librar-ian Margo Schiller, who

took over from Curell in May 2008, said he was a huge help when she � rst arrived.

“I can remember be-ing invited to Ed’s for Christmas dinner one year. It meant a lot to me as a newcomer to the area with a young child and no family nearby,” she said.

Owen Hewitt, who now lives in Ottawa, was employed as a local history librarian here in 2012.

“Even in retirement, Ed was an enthusiastic and dedicated library colleague whose insight and encouragement were greatly appreciat-ed by myself and those interested in preserv-ing local history,” said Hewitt.

Terrace mayor Dave Pernarowski expressed condolences on behalf of the city council and the city.

“His dedication to learning, to facilitating access to information, and creating an acces-sible library has shaped not only the Terrace Public Library but in-deed our community,” he said.

Following his re-tirement, Curell was involved in a number of activities, including membership in the local amateur radio club.

He was also a mem-ber of the board of the Terrace and District Museum Society.

In that capacity, he was also one of the vol-unteers recruited to in-terview local residents regarding the history of Terrace and area.

TERRACE CiTy council has joined the Kitimat-Stikine regional district in seeking more control over the establishment of work camps needed to house workers brought in to construct large indus-trial projects.

in similarly-worded motions passed recently, the two local governments also want the provincial government to form one authority to issue permits that would set out standards for the camps.

“Currently, work camps can be proposed through several [provincial] ministries, so there is no overarching authority deciding on who gets the temporary permits,” city councillor – and regional district chair – Bruce Bidgood said at a March 5 city council session held to discuss the issue.

Bidgood called the camps “shadow communi-ties,” some of which could hold several thousand people.

Such camps already exist at Kitimat where Rio Tinto Alcan is rebuilding its aluminum smelter and one LNG project there, Kitimat LNG, wants to erect a 600-person facility in the area of the former Eurocan pulp and paper mill this summer.

Both of those are within Kitimat municipal lim-its.

And while municipalities do have permit control over camps within their boundaries, both Terrace and the regional district feel a more unified ap-proach is needed for rural areas.

During debate March 5, city councillor Stacey Tyers said the Northern Health Authority has had concerns about conditions at some camps.

“Government is advocating for such rapid devel-opment of LNG (liquefied natural gas),” said Bid-good speaking later.

“We believe there is a joint responsibility. you can’t just stand there and start a feeding frenzy and

say ‘we will go there without looking at the work conditions of the camps that are going to be there’ ... it should really be a creation of the provincial government.”

The city and regional district motions will be sent to the North Central Local Government Asso-ciation with the expectation they will then be sent for approval to the fall conference of the Union of BC Municipalities.

The city resolution reads, in part, “the Union of British Columbia Municipalities request the provincial government establish a referral process that allows local government and other government agencies to comment on the location of industrial work camps and establish an overarching authority to coordinate work camp development and monitor work camp operations.”

in the preamble to its resolution, the regional district noted “industrial work camps create de-mand for local services such as health care, waste management and emergency response.”

Two other resolutions were passed at the March 5 council meeting for presentation to the North Central Local Government Association in hopes they will be forwarded to the provincial municipal association.

One calls for lobbying the provincial govern-ment to “address barriers to trade and transporta-tion and impacts to northern communities along Highway 16.”

The other wants the province to increase the amount of affordable housing in the north.

The message delivered by several council mem-bers, including Lynne Christiansen, is that road in-frastructure needs should be looked at by the gov-ernment before a crisis situation comes about, as she feels is now the case with housing.

AN ANNOUNCEMENT of $300 million from the federal and pro-vincial governments for subsi-dized housing over the next five years drew mixed reactions from city councillors and others at a council committee of the whole meeting March 4.

Nearly 20 members of the pub-lic were also in attendance to hear from BC Housing and provincial officials.

BC Housing vice president Mi-chael Flanigan said the B.C. gov-ernment was going to match the federal government by providing $150 million for subsidizes to be spread “in an equitable way across British Columbia.”

He added that communities

across the province have presented similar concerns as Terrace, how-ever, city housing committee chair Keith Goodwin said Terrace is in a uniquely dire situation and called for partnerships between BC Housing and specific projects. He also said there’s a need for a local non-profit housing society.

“There is a need to share risk,” said councillor Brian Downie.

Councillor Stacey Tyers, who was acting as deputy mayor in Dave Pernarowski’s absence, said the announcement of money came as a surprise because she, along with other members and propo-nents of non-profit groups in the area, had previously been told there was no money whatsoever.

Terrace Standard Wednesday, March 12, 2014 OPINION www.terracestandard.com A5

By RoB BRown

I haven’t responded to criticisms of The Skeena Angler since I began writ-

ing the column for The Terrace Standard more than 20 years ago, but after reading Tim Mos-er’s “Fish need angler help” letter of February 12, I felt I should.

The reasons that prompted me to do so are that Moser attributes opinions to me that I have not expressed and ascribes motives to me that I do not possess.

Tim Moser accuses me of making “great efforts to deliberately vilify hunters, forestry workers, PNG employ-ees, guide outfitters, fisheries biologists, and most fishermen.”

The word vilify means to criticize someone very strongly, especially in a way that is not fair and that dam-ages their reputation.

I have never vili-fied hunters. I consider hunting a part of our Canadian heritage and I support it.

I challenge Mr. Mos-er to demonstrate one instance in my writing where I have unfairly criticized people who hunt in an ethical man-ner.

As for loggers, I re-spect them and their considerable skills as

well as their work in a demanding and danger-ous environment. I have never vilified them.

I have often levelled criticism (but never un-fairly) at foresters who created unsustainable logging plans to please their political and cor-porate masters at the expense of the environ-ment.

I have criticized the way the section of PNG pipeline that runs through the Telkwa pass was laid.

The fact that the line has been wrecked several times, most notably in the flood of 1978, is proof positive that that line was poorly planned. My criticism was therefore justified and fair.

In no instance did I criticize the workers who had the difficult job of laying that line.

Mr. Moser does not seem to understand that in these instances, my criticisms are levelled against the generals, not the troops.

The only guide out-fitters I have taken aim at are those who hunt grizzly bears on the Lakelse River.

Once again, I have not vilified them, but described how they drive to easily accessed places where they shoot bears for their fur, skulls, and claws,

a practice I find repug-nant as do the vast ma-jority of people in the civilized world.

I know a dozen bi-ologists and count three of them as my closest friends, and can recall only one time, a decade ago, when I criticized a biologist.

I did this because that man advocated the slaughter of wolves from helicopters as a strategy for managing moose populations. Mr. Moser’s contention that I vilified biologists is something he has sim-ply pulled out of his hat.

According to Mos-er, I have also vilified “most fishermen.” It’s unclear whom Moser refers to by “most fish-ermen.”

I have been critical of the management of the commercial salmon fishery in Skeena be-cause it has been domi-nated by the needs of the fishing industry at the expense of the First Nations and recreation-al fisheries upstream.

But I deny vilify-ing the federal fisheries managers for struggling with what is essentially an impossible task, or commercial fishers for eking out a living in a way that was in many cases handed down to them from their fathers.

On the other hand, I plead guilty to fairly criticized fisheries min-isters for poor decisions unmindful of the needs of salmon.

I’ve inveighed

against the use of salm-on roe on what I believe are sound ethical and ecological grounds, but have never sought to damage the reputation of fishers who use bait.

Similarly, I have been critical of flyfish-ers who hold fish out of water for photo oppor-tunities and those who use trailing hooks at the end of large flies be-cause those lures have the potential to kill fish.

Suggesting that I have deliberately sought to damage the reputation of most fish-ermen is as untrue as it is absurd.

“The enemy is not, as Rob Brown seems to think, average people who work in our area and eat the fish they

catch.” writes Moser. What Mr. Moser

thinks I think, is not what I think.

I don’t know precise-ly what Moser means by an average person, but I’m going to assume he is referring to a citi-zen who resides in the Terrace area and goes out to a river or lake from time to time with the intention of catch-ing a fish and bringing it home to eat.

Mr. Moser needs to know that for the 40 years I have lived here I have done exactly that.

True, I release steel-head, char, and cut-throat trout in rivers because it is illegal not to do so for reasons of conservation.

But the fact I can no longer take those fish home, does not mean that I wouldn’t like to, conditions permitting.

I still eat coho and sockeye and look for-ward to bringing some home for the table every season.

Mr. Moser also ac-cuses me of present-ing an “elitist point of view.” In the sport fishing community, the term “elitist” is too of-ten – and inaccurately – levelled at those who pursue fish with a fly rod, despite the fact that fly-fishing is the most common method used to angle for freshwater

fish the world over.I’m going to assume

that Tim Moser under-stands that an elitist is a person who supports a system in which a small group of people have a lot of advantages and keep the most power and influence, and chal-lenge him to show me an instance where I have advocated for such a position.

“Your average an-gler is concerned about conservation can con-tribute, if they can be engaged. Maybe it just takes an outside per-spective to figure out how,” writes Moser.

As someone who has been engaged in fisher-ies and conservation for more than 30 years, I can assure Tim Moser that he doesn’t need an outside perspective to figure out how to be-come involved, or seek counsel in the unin-formed and erroneous opinion piece published in the Jan. 29, 2014 is-sue of The Terrace Standard by Jim Ben-son, a Californian steel-head fisherman.

He just needs to stand up and be count-ed on issues like the Enbridge pipeline, the LNG plants, the immo-lation of the Fisheries Act, and the metastasis of aquaculture industry. But he has to be pre-pared to take some heat.

Angler replies‘My criticisms are levelled against the generals, not the troops’

Training young people is key to north’s future

I’ve spent much of the past year travelling across this province to speak with Brit-ish Columbians about our

Northern Gateway project.Everywhere I go, and es-

pecially in B.C.’s north, I hear young people sharing their hopes for the future.

They want good-paying jobs – ones that will allow them to live and work in the communities where they grew up.

And they want jobs that will allow them to enjoy the same quality of life as their parents, so they too can raise a family in their own communities.

It’s clear to me these young people are not afraid of hard work. Like my grandparents in the forest industry, they are eager to put their noses to the grind-stone. But many of these young people are worried about how

they’ll get by in an economy where many good-paying jobs re-quire advanced skills.

As someone who benefited from a good education, I believe everyone deserves a chance to better their skills, and to get the jobs that help drive our economy forward.

As leader of the Northern Gateway team, I know it’s my responsibility to do everything I can to help ensure these young people have the same opportuni-ties I had when I was growing up.

That’s why, since 2006, North-ern Gateway has been supporting programs that train young people across B.C.’s north.

These programs come with no strings attached, meaning gradu-ates can work for whomever they please.

So far, these programs have helped train more than 1,500 peo-

ple. These are people who now have skills that will keep them working for a lifetime.

They are people who now have the choice to stay in their communities, allowing them to

support the local economy and to be close to family and friends.

And yes, if our project gets ap-proval, I hope these same people will work for us. I am proud of the work we have done. But I know we can do more.

That’s why I announced re-cently that Northern Gateway is contributing $225,000 to the Construction Foundation of B.C. for its excellent initiative, Proj-ect Shop Class. This project puts much needed dollars directly into B.C. classrooms for skills train-ing programs that we know have the power to open young eyes to new possibilities.

This money will help to dra-matically improve shop facilities, which in some cases have not been upgraded in decades. With an expected shortage of skilled workers, I am hopeful this pro-gram will help to encourage more

young people to enter the skilled trades.

On a personal note, it gives me great pleasure to know that our contribution will go specifi-cally to schools across the north. I was born and raised in northern B.C., and I care deeply about the communities and the people who live here.

The investments we’re making in the skills of our young people will make us all stronger, giving tomorrow’s generation the oppor-tunity to fulfill their potential.

There is no better investment we can make. And I am proud that Northern Gateway is doing its part.

ESTABLISHED APRIL 27, 1988

THE federal government is doing a profound disservice to the Kitselas and Kitsumkalum First Nations by failing so far to ratify their respec-tive land claims treaty agreements in principle.

It’s been more than a year since Kitselas voters accepted their agree-ment in principle providing cash, land and self government powers and close to a year since Kitsum-kalum voters did the same.

The provincial government fol-lowed suit last year as well but in the complicated world of land claims, it takes three to tango and the fed-eral government has yet to put on its dancing shoes.

Agreements in principle are not � -nal documents. But they do provide the broad brush details for � nal trea-ties, namely cash, land and self gov-ernment powers.

The mystery is that the federal government doesn’t seem to trust the negotiators it hired who felt com-fortable enough with the agreements in principle to have them voted upon by the Kitselas and Kitsumkalum.

More to the point, the federal gov-ernment risks having Kitselas and Kitsumkalum voters go sour on the idea of treaties.

At a time when the region is on the verge of an economic upswing, the certainty over land and resourc-es treaties will bring is desperately needed. In that sense, the obligation of the federal government extends beyond the Kitselas and Kitselas to include everyone else here.

EDITORIALA6 www.terracestandard.com OPINION Wednesday, March 12, 2014 Terrace Standard

News reports reveal parents are us-ing machines that produce white

noise to shush their fussy ba-bies while in the stroller or during car rides, and to quiet them at bedtime.

Some machines plug in, others are battery powered. They also come as Apps or can be downloaded on to iPhones. Some are con-cealed in the tummies of stuffed animals.

Noise machines pro-duce a relaxing consistent sound that also blocks out background noises. Besides whooshing white noise, par-ents have a choice of bird songs, waterfalls, rain and more.

Recommended deci-bel level is 50; many ma-chines can reach higher noise levels. Knowing how we often disregard health warnings, this possibility of too-high levels worries doc-tors. Steady noise at higher decibels leads to deafness. Parents admit they may leave the white noise on near their babies from 45 minutes to all night.

By comparison, normal conversation measures 60 to 65 decibels, city traf� c in-

side a car 85, a Walkman 94, a jackhammer 95 measured at 50 feet, and a snowmobile 100 decibels.

My mother sang us to sleep. She had � ve of us to look after, plus holding up her end of farming – cook-ing, cleaning, laundry done on a scrub board, milking cows, feeding chickens, can-ning garden produce in sea-son. Once dinner was over and the kitchen table was cleared, mom looked for-ward to nursing her youngest ahead of the child’s after-noon nap. It gave her an op-portunity to take the weight off her feet before tackling chores that could keep her on

the go until 7 p.m.She would settle in the

big rocking chair in her sun-ny bedroom off the kitchen. The rocker, made by her carpenter father, had a pad-ded seat and a high back. Its wide, � at armrests amply supported her arm with the baby’s weight. Heat from the McClary range along with any southern sunlight pro-duced a sopori� c atmosphere for both mom and babe. While the baby nursed, mom crooned a four or � ve line song she had composed for her � rst child and never var-ied from then on. The words were even less exciting than Sheldon’s Soft Kitty.

The lullaby catalogued our farm animals with their vocalizations: The cow says moo, moo, moo, and the rooster says doodle do, the dog says bow wow wow, and the kitty says meow, meow, meow. I no longer recall the roster of livestock, only that it was a short list.

Soon baby’s eyelids would droop – sometimes mom’s too – and the baby would be ready for a cou-ple hours of slumber in his homemade crib next to mom and dad’s bed.

Thirty minutes was usu-

ally suf� cient for the baby to nurse and slump in a deep snooze. Our baby brother, though, was not so easily lulled. Even though he might look to be completely asleep, if mom made a mistake, paired the wrong sound to an animal, his eyelids would snap open and he would cor-rect her. She had to croon minutes longer before he trusted her to stay on mes-sage.

When our girls were ba-bies, I typed several hours every evening transcribing doctors’ exam notes and of-� ce correspondence from their Dictaphone recordings. Each afternoon when my husband left work, he drove to the doctors’ of� ces to col-lect their charts. Next morn-ing he took the typed charts back to their of� ces.

While I typed, dad kept an eye on the girls. The old-er one, propped up against a cushion, shared the sofa with dad while he watched TV wrestling. The younger one preferred her crib and succumbed to the clacking of my manual Royal. Its tap-ping keys were as effective as white noise. Even today, as a an adult, she tends to nod off at the sound of typing.

home hardware co-owners henry Stiksma, left, and Norm mantel, right, hold a chain instead of a traditional ribbon for then-mayor Jack Talstra at the official march 1994 opening of their store. It was the second home hardware store in Terrace and was located where the Creative Zone is now. The store closed in 2001. home hardware is returning thanks to a conversion of the rona outlet here.

Dear Sir:Just to bring you up to speed

on your story in the March 5, 2014 issue of The Terrace Standard regarding the return of Home Hardware.

This is actually the third time Home Hardware has been in Terrace.

The first one was beside Terrace Interiors, where there is now a restaurant.

Home Hardware moved in to that location after the liquor store relocated, and the Home Hardware was operated by the same family that owned the franchise in Prince Rupert. His

name was Jim, but I don’t re-call his last name.

I guess I’ve lived in Terrace too long if I recall this.

Here’s a story to tell your childrenBy RIck BROuwER

In RecenT months, northwest-erners have been described as the belles of the resource devel-opment ball – especially small town girls being wooed by well-spoken corporate diegos.

Let’s carry that idea forward in a modern day version of cin-derella. In this tale, everyone’s invited to the ball; in fact, we have no choice and must attend.

At the ball, there’s more than one Prince charming and they aren’t just looking for a one and only. Here one charming can and will partner with more than one cinderella, and one cin-derella can and will partner with more than one charming.

And when they do hook up, the charmings move into the cinderellas’ home, a shared ac-commodation i.e. northwest Bc.

This is where it gets interest-ing. Lots of cinderellas and lots

of charmings, some in relation-ships, some not, all living under one roof.

Like any living situation, there’s bound to be disagree-ments, some minor and some major because we’re all differ-ent, and in some cases, polar op-posites.

Some of us are neat; oth-ers messy. Some are loud; oth-ers enjoy a quieter lifestyle. But because we’re family now, we can’t just walk away from our differences and problems.

We have to confront them, to-gether, in a civilized manner with long-term solutions in mind.

But let’s go back to the begin-ning of the story and figure out if there’s something we could do before the ball, to make moving in together easier on all of us.

As I see it, there are two pos-sible scenarios.

First, as each cinderella heads off to the ball they only have their

own desires in mind. Maybe they bring home one Prince. Maybe they bring home a few. Maybe they bring home none at all.

Once everyone’s living in the same house, everyone does their best not to blow up at each other.

In the second scenario, the

cinderellas get together before-hand and agree on what they want the house to look like.

They set ground rules for new roommates and guests, whether everyone will follow certain diets, bathroom schedules, if or when to update the wiring, paint the walls, buy new appliances, add new rooms, etc.

They talk about pet peeves and preferences to avoid blow ups. And before they go to the ball, the cinderellas agree on the type of charmings they can all accept as part of the family.

This scenario prevents con-flicts between roommates before they move in together, and sets ground rules for any conflicts that will inevitably come up.

As a bonus, when the charm-ings move in, they’ll be more prepared. They’ll understand the type of people they’ll be living with and the expectations in the household.

As new family members, the Princes will be welcome. Their opinions will be valued and con-sidered in household discussions and decisions.

now, I don’t know if a com-plete fairy tale ending is really possible, but at least in the sec-ond scenario northwest Bc’s cinderellas could write the story together. And the Prince charm-ings would have some idea what is and isn’t acceptable behaviour in these parts.

Perhaps, just perhaps, north-west Bc could become the place where they all lived happily ever after. Isn’t that a cinderella story you’d like to tell your kids?

Third time for Home Hardware

An open letter to:Gerry Martin

About your letter of March 5, 2014 in which you criticize columnist Rob Brown for his Feb. 12 col-umn on enbridge’s TV commercials introducing us to their northern Gateway project manager, Janet Holder.

I wonder if that commercial was the inspiration for Rob’s column. The lighting is beautiful; it sure makes me want to trust her. After watching a com-mercial like that a hundred times, I’m almost con-vinced she alone will ensure nothing bad – like a spill into a fish-bearing stream – will happen in our area; I almost forget that enbridge, along with other pipeline companies, have had a number of pipeline ruptures/leaks in recent years.

Rob’s last paragraph warns us that Janet and en-bridge are selling snake oil. Rob’s passionate words might be too strong; having an inflammatory rather than agreeable quality for pipeline proponents.

However, as educated people, we simply can-not deny that enbridge is spinning the truth in their favour by airing commercials that are one-sided. The intent of enbridge’s commercial is the same as for any commercial run by a company: to gain public favour for a project or to convince the public to buy a product. So Rob’s final paragraph is not re-ally that unfair to Janet, rather, it makes us stop and think about the enbridge propaganda that we are exposed on our televisions in our homes.

Gerry, you are correct in your letter when you say that oil and gas companies need customers for their products. But where are the customers for the end products of the northern Gateway project lo-cated? It’s not going to be canadians fueling up at the end of the pipeline is it? Why do we need to rush to export canada’s non-renewable oil and gas reserves?

Environmental Assessment of the Proposed

Prince Rupert LNG

Open House and Invitation to Comment BG Group (Proponent) is proposing to construct and operate a liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility on Ridley Island near Prince Rupert, British Columbia (proposed Project). The proposed Project would liquefy natural gas and transfer it to ships for transport to market. The proposed Project consists of two LNG processing units, two LNG storage tanks and an LNG shipping terminal with a total capacity of 14 million tonnes per annum (mtpa). The proposed Project is subject to review under British Columbia’s Environmental Assessment Act and the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act. The Proponent must obtain an environmental assessment certificate before any work can be undertaken on the proposed Project. However, prior to submission of an application (Application) for a certificate by the Proponent, Environmental Assessment Office of British Columbia (EAO) must first approve Application Information Requirements. The Application Information Requirements will specify the studies to be conducted and the detailed information to be provided by the Proponent in its Application. EAO has now received draft Application Information Requirements from the Proponent and invites comments on this draft. In order to provide information about the Application Information Requirements EAO invites the public to attend an Open House. There will be two Open Houses, to be held as follows:

at: Community Centre, 770 Pacific Ave, Port Edward on: 2 April 2014 from: 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at: North Coast Convention Centre, 240 West 1st

Ave, Prince Rupert on: 3 April 2014 from: 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

There are 30 days for the submission of comments by the public in relation to the draft Application Information Requirements. The comment period will begin on 24 March and end on 22 April 2014. All comments received during this comment period in relation to the Application Information Requirements will be considered.

The intention of seeking public comments is to ensure that all potential effects – environmental, economic, social, heritage and health – that might result from the proposed Project are identified for consideration as part of the assessment process. At this stage of the process, the primary intent is to receive feedback about the studies or information required for a comprehensive environmental assessment. After taking public comments into account, EAO will finalize the Application Information Requirements and issue them to the Proponent. EAO accepts public comments through the following ways: • By Online Form at

http://www.eao.gov.bc.ca • By Mail:

Kenneth Howes Project Assessment Manager Environmental Assessment Office PO Box 9426 Stn Prov Govt Victoria BC V8W 9V1

• By Fax: Fax: 250-387-0230

An electronic copy of the Application Information Requirements and information regarding the environmental assessment process are available at www.eao.gov.bc.ca. Copies of the Application Information Requirements are also available for viewing at these locations: BG Group Office Suite 710 Bentall One 505 Burrard Street Vancouver BC V7X 1M4 Prince Rupert City Hall 424 3rd Ave West, Prince Rupert, BC V8J 1L7

PRLNG Site office 610 Second Avenue West Prince Rupert BC V8J 1H2 Port Edward Community Centre 770 Pacific Ave, Port Edward Prince Rupert Library 101 6 Ave W, Prince Rupert, BC

If you are unable to participate at this time, there will be an additional comment period during the Application Review stage when you will also be able to provide comments to EAO on the proposed Project.

NOTE: All submissions received by EAO during the comment period in relation to the proposed Project are considered public and will be posted to the EAO website.

The answer might be as simple as: the rev-enue generated from the exports will in turn gen-erate economic prosper-ity. The question then becomes: is economic prosperity worth the risks?

Some Canadians will bene� t from economic prosperity directly and indirectly resulting from the Northern Gate-way project – and that is alluring; so alluring that it makes many of us

compromise our values (namely environmental) in the name of money.

Knowing what we now know about fossil fuels (they are a scarce and non-renewable re-source, burning them has cumulative negative consequences), each of us has a responsibility to make better choices about how we use them and how we bene� t from them (i.e. exploit-ing them by fueling up our personal vehicles

and heating our homes; exploiting them by sup-porting projects that export them to other remote countries who will ultimately con-sume them; or even supporting the industry by competing for those high paying jobs).

I applaud Rob for his Feb. 12 column, even if he’s made to sound a little like a hypocrite for driving his truck out to the river to enjoy a day of � shing. He perhaps

could have done better, as you suggested, by including a few refer-ences to how we might wean ourselves from fossil fuel dependency.

Regardless, how can any of us in modern society disapprove of the Northern Gateway project without sound-ing like a hypocrite? Sometimes being a little bit of a hypocrite is a necessary evil, and it certainly is in the case of advocating reduc-

tion of dependencies on fossil fuels because we have allowed our societ-ies to be so heavily de-pendent on them. While pipelines may offer a relatively safe option for transporting fos-sil fuels, building more pipelines and greater capacity to move more oil and gas does nothing to help reduce local or global dependency on fossil fuels.

From Page A7

We need to use less fossil fuel

Dear Sir:May I reinforce Helmut Giesbrecht’s remarks on

disabled parking spaces (Terrace Standard, Febru-ary 26, 2014) I do not hope to match his eloquence but I can assure you that he does not overstate the problems.

I have tried politely to point out to people in handicapped spaces, without permits, and with-out visible mobility problems, that they are taking spaces away from those that need them. I have been advised variously that they will park wherever they want, that I should mind my own business, and have been treated to a few words that are better left unstated.

So as far as bringing these violations to the at-tention of the property owner, the usual reaction is a shrug and, “What can we do?’’

Why would anyone bother, indeed?Don Varner, Terrace, B.C.

Snowmobiler and Winter Recreation Users Public Safety Notice

Snowmobilers and winter recreationalists (cross country skiers, snow shoers, etc.) should be aware that the Northwest Transmission Line (NTL) is under construction, and the NTL right-of-way remains a construction zone with restricted access. This is required to avoid safety risks associated with such things as unmarked guy lines, construction materials and other potential hazards along the right-of-way, as well as for public and worker safety as construction activities continue.

In particular, over the past year many of the transmission structures for the NTL project have been installed. Most of these structures are supported by currently unmarked guy lines which can be very difficult to see against a snow background.

Please avoid using the right-of-way for your activities. If you are in the area, take extra care when travelling in the vicinity of the transmission structures.

If you have any questions, please contact BC Hydro stakeholder engagement: 1 866 647 3334 or send an email to stakeholderengagement@bchydro.com

The Terrace busi-ness community can now have its say on en-bridge’s Northern Gate-way project thanks to an online survey hosted by the Terrace and District chamber of commerce.

The survey, several months in the plan-ning and posted March 5, follows the Decem-ber 2013 release of an environmental review which recommended the federal government approve the project sub-ject to enbridge fulfill-ing 209 conditions.

In February 2012, just after Terrace city council voted to op-pose Northern Gateway, the chamber executive released a letter say-ing that while it took a neutral stance to the pipeline project until the review panel re-leased its report, it did welcome new industry

to the area.chamber executive

director carol Fielding said it seemed overall opinion on the Gate-way project to pump alberta crude to an export terminal at Kiti-mat is divided and that the chamber’s board of directors decided a sur-vey was one method of finding out the opinion of the organization’s nearly 300 members.

“The few we heard from some supported, some didn’t and asked why did you write the letter. So it said to us that we should canvas our members to see what they think,” said Fielding.

She also said that the survey results will only be considered valid and the results released to the public if more than 50 per cent of the mem-bers respond.

even if the number of surveys submitted is under that, the chamber board will still release a position statement on the Gateway project, Fielding said.

chamber members can respond to the 11 statements in the survey only once.

respondents can strongly disagree, somewhat disagree, undecided, somewhat agree or strongly agree to the statements.

One statement asks members if they con-sider pipelines to be a safer means to transport oil than rail.

another asks mem-bers if the Gateway pipeline creates a risk to marine environment.

The entire survey can be found by going to https://www.survey-monkey.com/s/North-ernGatewayPipeline.

FAMILY ANd friends paid their last respects to Mamie Kerby at Knox United Church March 5.

Celebrating the Life of Mamie eva emily Kerby welcomed everyone with piano music in the sanc-tuary and a book of condolences for guests to sign.

Two of Mamie’s grandsons, doug and Ken, greeted everyone and handed out the bulletin with a colour photo of Mamie on front and a black and white photo of her younger self sitting on a bridge railing with a motorcycle parked in front of her.

At the start of the service, Tom Harris asked ev-eryone to stand as he led in the family members.

daughter-in-law Wanda Kerby and grandson Adam Kerby opened the service with a song, fol-lowed by Tom Harris with a welcome and prayer.

Mamie’s son eric gave the eulogy, telling sev-eral personal stories about her with tears in his eyes as he talked.

“My mother had a unique ability to see life as perfect,” said eric. she thought her children were perfect and thought everything was perfect, he said.

she roamed everywhere and felt free, he added.Mom loved her children so much and was such a

good person, he said.Harris told a story about his grandfather Knute

who decided to go to the Haugland’s house one day.

Mamie was on the front porch and had a big dishpan in her hands and Knute came around the corner and got the full brunt of the dishpan in the face, which surely wasn’t done on purpose.

“Mamie was joyful and courageous,” he said. “I know we’ve lost a valued treasure so we’re waiting for another Mamie to come and step in, continue to lead us and encourage us. Another thing about Mamie for me personally: she was encouraging, a true encourager.”

Wanda and her sons Adam and Ben sang two songs written in the 1930s during the depression: Keep on the sunny side and I’ll Fly Away.

Harris closed the service in prayer, then put on his guitar and sang another line of Keep on the sunny side before asking everyone to sing along with their best Minnie Pearl voice, referring to the comedienne who performed at the Grand Ole Opry in the U.s. for 50 years.

The family has started a scholarship for a Grade 12 student in the local school district who’s going on to study history after high school.

donations to the scholarship in memory of Ma-mie Kerby can be dropped off or mailed to: North-west education 88 Foundation, 3211 Kenney st., Terrace, B.C., V8G 3e9.

Centennial plays

matchmakerFOLLOWING ON the heels of last year’s perfor-mance of the farce One Mad Night, Centennial Christian drama students present another farce. the Matchmaker, this year.

Josh sexton is Horace Vandergelder, the wealthy “merchant of Yonkers” who forbids his niece ermengarde, played by Ocean Georgelin, from marrying her love Ambrose, played by Marcus Behnke, while hiring matchmaker dolly Levi, played by Krystal Behnke, to find him a wife. While telling Horace that she wants him to meet Irene Molloy, played by Lovene Operana, dolly has set her sights on marrying Horace.

Meanwhile, Horace’s store clerks Cornelius and Barnaby, played by Josh Piers and Liam Nut-ma, decide they want to have some fun of their own, which includes kissing a girl, even though Horace has left them in charge of the store.

From there it becomes a farce in the old-fash-ioned sense: characters hidden under tables and in closets, men disguised as women, a complex conspiracy to bring young lovers together and a happy ending. For more details on the play, see City scene on page 13.

CITY SCENEFax your event to make the Scene at 250-638-8432. Deadline is 5 p.m. Thursday.

I’m so pleased to see such a great turnout today, for the first annual Terrace Everything Day (TED) conference. To facilitate network-

ing, such an important part of today’s agenda, we’ll be starting late, having long breaks, and ending early.

First, some housekeeping details. Washrooms are located to your left, in the west wing, on every floor. Exits are marked. Please note there is no smok-ing on the balconies, verandas, porches or the poolside deck.

I’ll just run down the list of work-shops: you have a map in your pack-age.

The Accommodations and Hous-ing workshop is located in conference room A. There are five presentations, three break-out sessions, and a power-point summary. For those of you who are tired about talking about the issue, please join Ksan Society’s Carol out-side, who will be digging the founda-tion by hand, for a new 20-unit afford-able housing complex. Please BYOS.

Big Brothers Big Sisters is in Con-ference Room B, Chamber of Com-merce in room C, and Downtown Re-vitalization in D. Conference room E is reserved for “Everything” staff and volunteers: there are baby change rooms, electric scooters for loan, and extra flipchart paper and markers. Feel free to see them for anything else you may need during the conference.

The volunteer firefighters are in room F, Greater Terrace Beautification Society in room G, and Happy Gang Centre in room H. As this is the last Tuesday of the month, Room I will be the location of the no-host Interagency meeting at noon, so as usual, please bring a bag lunch, as well as your cof-fee, tea or ice water, and your own pen and paper. I don’t have to remind you

to clean up after yourselves, you know full well there is no budget for Inter-agency.

Kermode Friendship Centre, please take room K. Kinsmen and Knights of Columbus are jolly old fellas, they share room J. Lakelse Watershed Stew-ards Society take room L and Minor Hockey Association M. Now, all you people who chose to name their non-profits North, Northern, North Coast or Northwest, you have given the “Ev-erything” team a bit of a headache. We have reserved Conference Rooms N, O, P and Q for you, so Northwest BC Métis Association, Northwest Science and Innovation Society, and the rest of you, go to the east wing on the third floor, find your people, sort yourselves out and grab a room.

Royal Canadian Legion, assemble in room R and Skeena Angling Guides Association, guide yourselves and the

Skeena Watershed Conservation Coali-tion to Conference Room S.

Attention Terrace Bluebacks Swim Club, TDCSS, Terrace Public Library, Terrace Womens Resource Centre, and the rest of you: see N above! We have set aside Conference Rooms T, U, V and W for you, make it work. And no, Toastmasters, I do not feel any pity for you, get with the Ts.

Yes, question? Chair recognizes Terrace Women’s Resource Centre. Oh, I see. To repeat for those who could not hear her shrill demand (kidding!) TWRC could be Women’s Centre, and take Conference Room W. Seems fair enough. Hear that, fellow- Ts? You get T, U and V, no W.

Chair sees another hand up. Peaks Gymnastics? Where have we put you now? Oh, sorry – well, we have actu-ally set aside Conference Rooms X, Y and Z for such a… no, I understand. Okay, listen up, Ns, you have Confer-ence Rooms N, O and Q – no P. What? Very funny.

Alright, alright, simmer down. We have been here for 10 minutes and you have a 30-minute break coming up to talk amongst yourselves. Wow! That worked! Who taught you to whistle like that? Northwest Whistling Association, ha ha.

So how this works is, after 20 minutes of meeting with your own group, you se-lect the four people who have spoken the most words. Our E-team is there in each Conference Room to observe and record for assistance. Speaker 1 and 3 go east, Speaker 2 and 4 go west, and must spend the next session listening. This repeats for each session. So Chamber members listen to Big Brothers, then might move on to Happy Gang or whatever.

I know you have questions: just lis-ten.

drivewayBC.ca | Welcome to the driver’s seat drivewayBC.ca | Welcome to the driver’s seat

Luxury wheels at just the light priceMALAGA, SPAIN - It might be winter here but it’s always nice to look forward to warmer days, filled with sun and clear roads. To get a sneak peek at what better weather looks and feels like, plus get a chance to drive the all new Mercedes GLA250 and GLA 45 AMG, the advanced drive program was held in Malaga, Spain. The GLA is built of the same plat-form as the hot, new CLA sedan that arrived last fall. Developing it into a taller, more practical small SUV is perfect for young families or couples that want the same underlying goodness that is in the CLA but with standard all wheel drive (AWD) and ease of use. Pricing has not been confirmed but when it arrives this fall, expect the same aggressive pricing that the CLA delivers. That car starts at $33,900 but with AWD comes up to $36,800.

LooksThis new GLA is not as tall as the B-Class, which also shares the same platform, and not nearly as low-slung as the CLA. The GLA has a less aggressive front grille

and stance, plus smaller wheel sizes compared to the high performance GLA 45 AMG version that sports 19-inch wheels compared to the base 18-inch wheels, but even the base model can get larger wheels as part of the Sport Package.The small, more aggressive touches and the lowered sus-pension do make the AMG look sportier and more purposeful but the stan-dard GLA with the optional 19-inch wheels is a head turner too.

InsideThe dash of the GLA is almost identical to both the CLA sedan and B-Class hatchback. There is a prominent screen mounted high in the centre of the dash, like an iPad application. The rest of the dash is sporty and functional thanks to stylish jet engine inspired air vents that

do a great job of directing air flow to just the right location. The centre cluster below the screen is very straightforward and easy to master. The biggest difference between the base model and the 45 AMG are the seats. The base comes with faux leather 12-way power seats that look and feel very good. Leather

is optional plus the seats are more bolstered. The AMG gets upgraded seats as standard equipment but race inspired Recaro seats are part of the Exclusive Package and look superb, thanks to aluminum accents and chunky side bol-sters. Other differences include a centre-mounted shifter in the AMG, where the base 250 gets the more practical column mounted gear se-lector, which frees up much needed storage in the centre of the car. Speaking of space, the back seats are much more practical compared to the CLA sedan thanks to a high-er roof, bigger back windows and much better outward visibility. The cargo area isn’t huge at 1235L but the rear seats do split and fold for additional cargo capabilities.

DriveThe base GLA 250 comes with a 2.0L turbocharged direct injection 4-cylinder with a healthy 208hp and 258 lb.-ft. of torque, the same as the B-Class and base CLA. There is plenty of acceleration and cruis-ing on the highway is effortless.

Driving through the mountain can-yons back from Granada to Malaga was a real treat. The countryside is rustic and beautiful and the twisty roads sublime. The base GLA never set a wheel wrong and the 7-speed duel-clutch automatic can be left in economy, sport or manual for each driving situation. All GLA models come with standard AWD and this system can detach the rear wheels and drive in FWD for better econ-omy but switches seamlessly back when more traction or cornering capability is required, plus Dynamic Cornering Assist applies just a small amount of brake force to the inside wheel when cornering to aid in the process. The 45 AMG takes things to a completely new level. The 2.0L 4-cylinder is hand assem-bled and pumps out a whopping 355hp and 332 lb.-ft. of torque. The 7-speed transmission and AWD system have been adapted by AMG to deliver a go-cart like drive that is so reassuring and potent that it makes the driver look and feel fantastic. Cornering is effortless and the bigger wheels and lowered suspension give great feedback but it is not jarring.

VerdictMercedes Benz is enabling more people to access its brand with smaller less expensive vehicles. The new GLA 250 and GLA 45 AMG are certainly very attractive, powerful and fun vehicles to drive.

driveway

Perhaps it might be too early to start thinking of going topless. Then again, maybe not.Dreaming about the days when we don’t need to crank the heat to full blast in the house, or bundle up to go outside to shovel snow are warming thoughts. And so is the thought of open air driving. Here are five convertibles under $30K that might help beat the winter blahs and get you thinking about the sun.

Fiat 500C - $16,495As if the Fiat 500 wasn’t cute enough, there’s also a drop top version to give it even more char-acter. The Pop trim has a starting price of $16,495, whereas the Lounge trim is still starts under $20K at $19,895. Both come with a 1.4L, 4-cylinder MultiAir engine, which produces 101

horsepower and 98 lb-ft of torque. Okay, I know that’s not an incredible amount of

ponies but, hey, we’re all equal is stop-and-go traffic, right?To catch the attention of fellow commuters, the 500C comes with the option of 3 canvas top colours and 14 different exterior hues. You can even retract the roof while driv-ing. Push the power-oper-ated canvas

roof button once and it will open the top to the midway position at speeds up to 96 km/hr. Push it again, and it retracts behind the rear head restraints at speeds up to 80 km/hr.

VW Beetle Convertible - $29,075One of the most recogniz-able vehicles on the road is the VW Beetle. And its convertible version offers a very similar silhouette as its coupe sibling, thus helping

it easily be spotted.The latest generation of German convertible is better than ever. Boasting more trunk room (now rated at 201L as opposed to 141L) than the previous two generations, a more “masculine” look and better driving dynamics. There are two engines to choose from: a 1.8L, 4-cylidner that produces 170 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque, and a 2.0L, 4-cylinder turbocharged (TSI) model with 200 horse-power with the manual transmission (but 210hp with the optional automat-ic DSG) and 207 lb-ft of torque.

Mazda MX-5 - $29,250Given the title of the world’s most popular 2-seat sports car, it’s not hard to see why. The front engine, rear-wheel drive Mazda MX-5 is a blast to drive. Ask anyone who has captained it.Whether taking it out for a spin on the road or the track, this tiny two-door has nothing but good times woven into its sheet metal.The Mazda MX-5’s manual vinyl top takes only a few seconds to drop down, allowing its driver and passenger to experience a completely new world of

topless driving.Under its pint-size hood is a 2.0L, 4-cylinder engine with an output of 167 horsepow-er and 140 lb-ft of torque. There’s also the option to outfit the MX-5 with various transmissions: a 5-speed manual, a 6-speed manual, a 6-speed automatic or a 6-speed automatic with paddle shifters, there’s fun to be had by all.

Mustang Convertible - $29,499Under the hood of this American muscle car, the Ford Mustang’s 3.7L, V6 engine will give you the grunt and glory of 305 horsepower. You’ll also

be able to fit four people inside along with 272L of cargo around back.Despite the healthy dose of ponies under the hood, wrangling this convertible is anything but a chore. With either a 6-speed man-ual or 6-speed automatic transmission, you’d be pleasantly surprised as to how gracious this ‘Stang can be to drive. Then again,

if you want to fire this rear-wheel drive vehicle up, you might just giggle in the process.

MINI Convertible - $29,500There’s something to be said about driving a MINI. It’s unlike any other experi-ence out there. It feels like driving a street-legal go-kart, but without the abra-siveness that go-karts can

have. Its pristine handling and fabulous gearbox only enhance the experience. Granted, visibility out the rear with the top up isn’t fabulous, and there isn’t a lot of trunk space (but there still is room for four!), those are secondary details. Take the 121 horsepower MINI Convertible for a spin and fall in love with things that come in small packages.

Confessions of a CurberIt happened just after the last fl ood. The winter beat records for snowfall, and

springtime saw serious fl ooding. Basements fi lled, streets were running with water, and cars were left to fl oat and sink. 

One day, I walked past a junk yard and saw, what I

thought, was a relatively normal car. 

What’s it doing here? I thought.Apart from a couple of scratches on the outside

and some moist seats, the vehicle seemed roadworthy. I immediately asked about the car. I was told that it was found full of fl ood water.  Its previous owner wanted nothing to do with it. I bought the car for a couple hundred dollars. I didn’t even have to register it in my name.Originally, I had no intention of doing what I did. I wanted to sell the car for parts. But, the engine still worked and

the vehicle could get a person from A to B.Suddenly, I had an idea. Since the car looked fi ne on the outside, no one had to know its real history. I was a genius.After a night in the garage with a heater and a little scrubbing, I posted an ad on Craigslist: “2004 black Toyota Corolla for sale. No longer need, bought new car. No room in garage – need to sell ASAP!!! Few scratches, otherwise in great condition. Call

cell and we’ll talk price.”Thirty minutes later I got a call from a sixteen-year old kid – a little younger than my son. We decided to meet at the local mall at about 6:00. I wonder if his parents knew what he was up to.I arrived at 6:20, telling him I was in a great rush as I had to pick my son up from soccer practice. Turns out he played, too. After some soccer gossip, we got down to business.I knew that a kid his age just wanted a ride to show off to his friends, so we spent little time on

the details. I told him the car was in perfect condition and was never in any accidents. “No problems as far as I know,” I said. The kid was sold. He trusted me. I never gave him my full name, and he never gave me his.  He gave me the cash, I gave him the car. All was good. I was on my way.A few days later, I saw a TV program that talked about fl ood damaged vehicles.  Apparently, fl ooding can damage the computer systems, which control things like the brakes and steering. And fl ood vehicles can’t be registered or insured. Who knew? My mind immediately went to the kid I sold the vehicle to. I felt a twinge of guilt. Then my eyes darted to my stash of cash.Two weeks later, I had another car up for sale.  Stay tuned!

I still remember my fi rst time. It was so easy. So thrilling. And I walked away with a couple of

thousand bucks in my pocket. Not bad for a few hours’ work.

ALL-TERRAIN DOUBLE CAB SHOWN

What are my favourite trucks? – It’s a question read-ers ask me all the time in the supermarket and on the street. Though not in order of preference, here are my ten choices.2014 GMC/Chevy Silverado/Sierra ½ ton pickup has gone through some monumental changes this year. What an improvement with a very comfort-able and refined interior on all trim levels, and three engine choices, the Eco Tec 4.3-litre V6, 5.3-litre V8, and a 6.2-litre V8. 2015 Chevrolet Colorado. Very similar in design to its big brother the Silverado, this Mid-size truck fills a void in Canada. Still expected to work as hard as a full-size truck, the Colorado can tow more than 3,039 kilograms (6700 lbs) a 2.5L I-4 engine is standard with an optional 3.6L V6 with a six speed automatic transmission.2015 GMC 3500HD Denali is a beast. This truck is built to pull and with 10,251 KG (22,600 lbs) of trailer towing capacity it does just that. The 6.6L V8

turbo engine delivers 397 hp and 765 lb ft of torque and is paired with a 1000 series Allison transmission. With interior upgrades such as 12-way power adjust-able bucket seats, heated leather wrapped steering wheel and a Bose sound system you can operate it in comfort. 2014 Ford F150 Ecoboost: With more than 100,000 Eco Boost engines being produced monthly, you can bet a majority of these engines are finding their way into the 2014 F150 pickup. It holds the record in Canada for highest pickup sales, and at 12.9/9.0 L/100 km (city/highway) it keeps the money in your wallet a little longer.2014 Ford Raptor is still one of my favorite off-road vehicles. It has electronic locking rear differential, shift on the fly 4 wheel drive, advance trac with roll stability control, and trailer sway control. Front and rear mounted cameras to add a second pair of eyes to the terrain around you and a 6.2-litre V8 engine to

help you get up and over that hill.2015 Ford F150. All new design features and a completely aluminum body and high strength steel in its frame make this truck up to 317 KG (700 lbs) lighter. It has 11 new class-exclusive features, includ-ing 360-degree camera view, integrated loading ramps stowed in the pickup bed, 400-watt power outlets inside the cab, LED headlights and side-view mirror spotlights, and remote tailgate release2014 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel. This is a much-antici-pated truck from Ram With a 3.0-litre V6 Diesel en-gine with a torqueflite eight-speed transmission. Not only will the Ram EcoDiesel give you 420-pound feet of torque and plenty of towing capabilities, it will also reduce co2 emissions and run on B20 Biodiesel. It’s a game changer. 2014 Ram 3500. The largest and most capable pickup Ram has to offer. Alterations to the frame in-cluding eight separate cross members, hydro formed

frame rails and high strength steel add up to a truck that is capable of towing of towing up to 13,607kg (30,000lb). A 6.7l Cummins turbo diesel engine deliv-ers 385 hp and 850 lb ft of torque.2014 Toyota Tundra. New body style this year, impressive hood and fender design. The western themed 1794 Edition commemorates the founding year of a Texas ranch where the Tundra plant is situ-ated. This interior is covered with Saddle tan brown leather seats and rich maple wood grain panels throughout. It is powered by a 4.6-litre or a 5.7-litre engine. Can it compete with the big boys? This is the year to see.2014 Toyota Tacoma. The Tacoma has continued to increase popularity and is a very agile four-wheeler. The double cab gives plenty of room for all your bud-dies and the 4.0-litre V6 engine can get you to your favorite fishing hole and back. With the addition of some modern day technology such as Backup cam-era, heated seats, 6 airbags, and a power invertor, this truck has everything I am looking for in a pickup.

TERRACE mAyoR Dave Pernarowski says he’ll avoid any con-flict of interest associ-ated with his new job as manager of the Terrace office of a Vancouver public relations firm.

PR Associates, which already has clients in the region, opened the Terrace of-fice to expand its busi-ness.

“I would not be giv-ing presentations to council on behalf of a client and would likely even recuse myself

from a general presen-tation to council from a PR Associates client to avoid any perceived conflict. I will always manage this issue care-fully,” said Pernarows-ki.

He said that same principle would apply to any council discus-sion concerning a PR Associates client.

Pernarowski had been working since ear-ly last year for Kitsault

Energy, a company which wants to devel-op a floating liquefied natural gas plant at the abandoned mining town of Kitsault on the north coast.

Pernarowski said his new position might also reduce his absences from city council meet-ings, although he noted some of those absences were due to him being on city business.

“I would not be trav-

eling as much with my new company so likely I would be able to reduce the number of times I’m away on work related business,” he said.

Elected first to city council in 2007 and then as mayor in 2008 and 2011, Pernarows-ki is undecided about running again in this November’s municipal elections.

“It’s never an easy decision when contem-

plating putting your name forward in a mu-nicipal election and it’s particularly challenging when you have to fac-tor in how you balance a full-time career with a half-time elected of-ficial position,” he said.

City councillor Bruce Bidgood, who is also the chair of the Kit-imat-Stikine regional district, has already an-nounced his intention to run for mayor.

A VANCoUVER public relations firm specializing in natu-ral resource issues has opened an office in Ter-race to expand its north-west client base.

“The northern re-gions of the province are the economic pow-erhouses for the next generation of British Columbians. We pride ourselves on our work in the communities where our business is generated,” said PR As-sociates president Rob-

ert Simpson.He said the com-

pany keys on the con-cept of “social licence,” the requirement that companies nowadays need broad-based com-munity support for any project they wish to un-dertake.

As such, PR Asso-ciates works to bridge any gaps between com-panies and community groups and individuals, Simpson added.

The company’s cli-ent list in the region

includes the Tahltan Nation Development Corporation, which is the business arm of the Tahltan people, and Seabridge Gold, which wants to open a large gold mine northwest of Stewart.

The company also worked with the Tahl-tan Central Council in the lead up to voting by Tahltan to approve of economic benefits packages arising from two AltaGas run-of-riv-er projects within Tahl-

tan traditional territory.And it also worked

with the council on the vote by Tahltan people to accept an economic benefits package aris-ing from work on BC Hydro’s Northwest Transmission Line.

Both the AltaGas and Northwest Trans-mission Line pack-ages were approved by members of the Tahltan Nation.

PR Associates has hired Terrace mayor Dave Pernarowski to be

its Terrace manager and also have an office in Toronto.

Pernarowski said he was looking forward to his new position. “It is a priority for me to en-sure local people and companies in northern British Columbia ben-efit from the natural re-source sector,” he said.

PR Associates has its Terrace offices on Greig Ave. on the top floor of the building which con-tains Northwest Train-ing.

SEPT. 7, 1958 - MARCH 17, 2013�AN AMAZING WOMAN, DEEPLY MISSED

Iria passed away peacefully with her family at her side. Beloved wife of predeceased Jacinto (Jesse) Costa and mother of predeceased Jamie (Jim) Costa. She is

Caledonia Sr. Boys � ght hard but fall shortIT WAS a battle between Terrace and Prince Rupert for the northwest AA senior boys basketball zone title, with the coastal city ultimately prevailing to qualify for provin-cials.

Caledonia’s senior boys opened up the tournament with a 81-46 win over Smithers Secondary, eliminating them from the tour-nament and setting up the best of three series � nal between Prince Rupert’s Charles Hays Secondary and Cal.

Cal controlled the � rst half of the � rst game, with the score 32-19 going into the second half and Cal dominating defensively.

But the second half was quite the oppo-site, with Prince Rupert outscoring Terrace 36-16.

“With three minutes left in the game, the score was 48-39 for us,” said coach Joe Dominguez. “And we couldn’t score for the life of us.”

Cal turned the ball over and Rupert took advantage of it, outscoring Cal 20-7 in the last quarter and ultimately winning 55-48.

High scorers for Cal were Cam Netzel with 21 points, Tristan Walker with nine, and

Alex Banovic with six points.“The second game started off very well

for us,” he said.

“Our boys played inspired basketball and played with energy despite losing our top scorer Cam Netzel due to an ankle injury.

Cal did a tremendous job on the defensive end.”

Cal held them to 12 points at the half, with the score 31-12.

Rupert made a run in the fourth quarter and closed the gap, but Cal was able to hold them off and ended up winning by a score of 53-43, setting up a do-or-die � nal.

High scorers for that game were Alex Ba-novic with 18 pts, Marek Ormerod with 10 pts, Keel Haldane with 13, and Drew Ken-muir with eight.

The team would then see its second injury of the tournament.

“Unfortunately, we lost Drew Kenmuir (a senior) with a concussion,” he said, of the � nal. “Again, Cal had to dig deep in order to stay in the game and that they did.”

Prince Rupert had the upper edge to start off the second half with a score of 22-18, and increase that lead to 51-41 for the win.

“It was a well-fought game but Prince Rupert were able to hit more shots than we did,” he said.

“It was a tough loss, but I am proud of how my boys played. They played with pride and left it all on the � oor.”

Bantam reps win zones

Sports BriefProvincial Peaks

THE TERRACE Peaks gymnastics club has � ve athletes competing at provincial championships in Kamloops this week-end, March 14 – 16. The biggest meet in the province, the Artistic Gymnastics BC Championships, sees more than 640 gymnasts take to the mat. Charlize Bretherick (P2 argo), Maia Guerierro (P2 argo), Maya Ebeling (P2 tyro), Ann Zettler (P2 tyro), and Ashlee Monsen (P2 tyro) are representing Terrace – look for their results in an upcoming is-sue of The Terrace Standard.

Soccer breakCOACH NICK Kollias’ youth soccer indoor winter clinic is back over spring break (March 17 – 21), with registration open now. The popular clinic teaches fundamental skills through demonstra-tion, practice, and coaching. Boys and girls between the ages of six and 15 are invited to attend – but they must have been registered to play with the Terrace Indoor Soccer Association in the 2013 season.

Play coyTHE CIHL’S 2014 Coy Cop is on now in Williams Lake, and the Terrace River Kings are looking to avenge their play-off loss to the Smithers Steelheads, who went on to win the 2013/2014 champi-onship. The four teams competing are the Kings, the Steelheads, the home-town Stampeders, and the visiting Fort Nelson Yeti. Games are on every night this week until the 15th, with semi-� -nals on Friday, March 14 and � nals on Saturday, March 15.

THE TERRACE Kermode MacCarthy Mo-tors Bantam rep team is the latest Terrace minor hockey team to qualify for provin-cials, winning the best of three northwest district zone � nal two weekends ago against the Smithers Storm.

The teams faced off twice Saturday, March 1, with Terrace winning the � rst game by a score of 9 – 8, hanging on for the victory after a late rally by Smithers that included three goals scored in a two-minute span late in the third period.

Smithers kept the momentum going for game two, with a nailbiting 5 – 4 overtime

victory setting up the winner-take-all � nal for Sunday.

On Sunday, a determined Terrace team stormed out of the gate – scoring in the � rst minute and adding three more unanswered goals in the � rst. The Kermodes continued to pressure the Smithers team throughout the game, cruising to a 9 – 1 victory.

Mason Richey and Gianni Cormano contributed a hat trick apiece and Terrace goalie Josh Fernandes recorded the victory with Smithers spoiling his shutout bid in the � nal minutes of the game.

Terrace � nished in � rst place overall in

the regular season Skeena Valley League (SVL) schedule with an undefeated record and was awarded pennants for both SVL League and Northwest District Zone cham-pion for the 2013/2014 season.

Terrace competed in � ve invitational tournaments this season (Quesnel, Salmon Arm, Terrace, Prince George and Williams Lake) recording two second place and two third place � nishes.

The team will now be travelling to West Kelowna to compete in the Tier 3 Bantam provincial championship during the week of March 15 to 21.

Bob Hooton, former Regional Bi-ologist for the Ministry of the Environment in Skeena, could never be accused of being afraid

of hard work, or of doing his job with any-thing less than highest standard of profes-sionalism. When a man brings that kind of integrity and determination to the job, he will inevitably have to make some tough, unpopular, decisions that will incur the op-probrium of those less well informed than he.

During one of those times when Bob had drawn fire for doing what turned out to be the right thing, I suggested to him that he might want to consider leaving the gov-ernment for a job with one of the environ-mental consulting firms that were spring-ing up all over the landscape like fungi in the first rain after a drought.

You would have half the stress and probably make more money, I said.

I didn’t get in this job for the money, Bob shot back, I got into it for the fish.

The federal government delegates the care and handling of steelhead to the prov-ince, and because Skeena has more steel-head streams than any other part of the province, Bob and his staff found them-selves front and centre in the struggle to save Skeena steelhead.

It was then that I first heard Bob ask what the federal fisheries department was prepared to do if a huge run of sockeye arrived at the mouth of the Skeena at the same time as a low return of summer steel-head?

I doubt that that question made Bob a

lot of friends within the ranks of his federal counterparts, but it goes to the very heart of what is wrong with fisheries management in Skeena.

But, before we go there, a little history is helpful.

When European set-tlers first beheld the size and sophistication of the First Nations’ fisher-ies here they were gob-smacked. These were large scale operations that included weirs and barricades at places like Babine and Kitwanga that blocked entire riv-ers. The First Nations fishers had the technological power to wipe out the entire fishery if they desired. They didn’t. Each aboriginal person required a lot of fish. Collectively, they harvested a huge amount, yet when the Europeans first came they reported staggering salmon abundance.

The settlers were at a loss to explain how primitive peoples achieved this bal-ance. The answer is that the people weren’t primitive and their management of the fishery wasn’t either. The Skeena First Nations’ fishery was a complex operation where chiefs controlled access to fishing rights and granted that access to houses in accordance with proper management. Prohibitions against waste and the need

for conservation were an integral part of their culture, and a system of reciprocity that provided incentives against over harvest was central to it.

The First Nations were sensitive to natu-ral nuances. They didn’t chase fish. They waited for fish to swim to them. Fish in the sea are dif-ficult to segregate. First Nations fishers waited until the fish segregat-ed themselves as they moved upstream, and when it came to inter-cepting the salmon, they used selective methods to catch them.

In 1873 the commercial fishery began in earnest. Fish were taken by net fishers in boats near the mouth of the Skeena, in the estuary, and in the approach waters to the river. All of the conservative, sustainable features of the native fisheries were lost when the federal government demolished the First Nations’ fishery through legisla-tion and through the elimination of aborig-inal fishing sites. Thus a sustainable fishery was supplanted by an unsustainable one.

By 1920 Skeena salmon stocks began to decline. Small bumps of abundance notwithstanding, they have been declining ever since, testimony to the utter ineptitude of the commercial fishing model.

Over the last 20 years, stock declines,

pressure by a much more lucrative sport fishery upstream, and pressure from First Nations have forced DFO managers to try and manage the unmanageable. They will never succeed because it’s impossible to fish discriminately with nets.

In the perfect storm scenario implicit in Bob’s question, DFO managers, because they have reflexively served industry for over a hundred years, will continue to give the fleets more fishing time and drive steel-head to the point of extinction, an action which is ecologically and economically indefensible.

There was another insurmountable chal-lenge implicit in Bob’s question. As far as we know, the perfect storm scenario hasn’t occurred with steelhead, but what about sockeye? There are 30 sockeye stocks in Skeena. The enhanced stocks of Pinkut and Fulton, being the most abundant, get the most attention from commercial fishers. The smaller 28 stocks are indistinguishable from their enhanced cousins. The inescap-able result is that these smaller runs of fish, unable to withstand high rates of harvest, will be fished to extinction. For the lesser Skeena sockeye stocks every year is a per-fect storm.

Fortunately, the Lake Babine First Na-tions are wise to this and are planning to hold the federal government and DFO to its treaty obligations. I hope they do. I hope they sue. If they do and they win, the fed-eral government will have be forced into ecologically sensitive management, the en-tire fishery will require extensive renova-tions, and the entire ecosystem will benefit.

THE MINI Rippers shredded up the moun-tains again February 15 and 16 as the Shames Mountain Ski and Snowboard Club held a second race weekend with two more races for Mini Rippers members and young skiers and snowboarders.

Skiers from three to 10-years-old and snow-boarders from eight to 12-years-old came out for the race – GS (Giant Slalom) style, with one racer at a time making the way down a longer course with wider turns.

Seventy-nine skiers and snowboarders raced GS over the two days, with 31 racers Saturday and 48 racers Sunday.

Like the first race of the season, more par-ticipants were girls than boys, and the fastest time seen all weekend was taken by the girls with nine-year-old Ja-milla Defreitas clocking a time of 22.03 seconds in the Sunday race.

Sunday also had a tie for third in the girls 6 and under with a time of 25.97. Ties are un-common – but the Wo-mens downhill event last month at the Sochi

Olympic Games had a tie for gold.

There were a few who claimed the po-dium both days, Jor-dan Talstra and Thayna Healey in the girls 6 and

under ski and sisters Josi and Milla Wilson in the Girls Snowboard.

The Mini Rippers program is all wrapped up, but the older ski and snowboard programs of

SMSSC continue to the end of March with more upcoming competitions in the month ahead.

■ Happy 100AILEEN FRANK celebrates her 100th birth-

day with friends and family in Coquitlam, B.C. March 1. She was visited by many peo-

ple, including Aveline and Gordie McConnell, shown here with her, of Terrace. The celebration

included phone calls from a relative in England and Terrace’s Betty Stewart plus cards from the Happy

Gang crowd and the United Church among others. Her grandson, Jamie, � ew in from Calgary with

a big bouquet of � owers for her. She received many letters of congratulations, including one

from the City of Terrace, the BC premier, the lieutenant governor, the prime minister, the

governor general, and the Queen. Frank was a teacher and lived in Terrace for

72 years.

Enbridge previously had been interested in hydroelectric power possibilities in Gitxsan territory north of the Hazeltons.

And it has several licences in the Terrace area, also on Kitselas traditional territory, to look at future run-of-river hydro possibili-ties.

For Enbridge, which owns the country’s larg-est natural gas distri-bution company, and which transports oil and gas through pipelines and which wishes to build the controversial Northern Gateway pipe-line, the Lakelse Lake geothermal project is consistent with its goal to double, by 2017, the $3 billion it’s already invested in renewable energy, said company public relations of� cial Ivan Giesbrecht.

“It’s a province rich with resources, so we’re always looking for op-portunities,” he said.

Kitselas representa-tives were invited to be a part of a local delega-tion who attended the opening of the Neal Hot Springs geother-mal plant in Oregon last year. It’s partially owned by Enbridge.

“The purpose of the Oregon trip was to give these local residents an opportunity to visit an Enbridge geothermal project already in oper-ation,” Giesbrecht said.

“We’re proud of that project, and rightly so.”

But details on what a similar project here could look like are slim.

“We really are un-able to talk very pub-licly about the projects that we are investigat-ing, both for commer-cial reasons and for the privacy wishes of local partners,” Giesbrecht said.

Borealis had been working for more than � ve years on a proposed geothermal energy site in Fort Liard, NWT in partnership with the Acho Dene Koe First Nation.

But that project ended last May when the company could not reach an agreement with the territory’s sup-plier of electricity.

A Kitselas represen-tative was not available to speak to the issue by the end of last week.

“With all the ups and downs over the years, it’s been tough for Kitimat. We need some stability. We need to know that everything’s going to be good for a long time, not just a year or two.

The Northern Gateway project will bring that stability. I’m glad it’s going to bring jobs, but also training. Wouldn’t it be great if our kids could get more education here, rather than heading off to Vancouver or Calgary?

For me, the best thing about living in Kitimat is that you can go hiking or fishing on your way home from work. It’s a special place to live.

But without jobs and stability, I worry that my kids and grandkids won’t be able to live here with me. And that’s what I want more than anything.

So I’m voting yes.”
