LOCAL NEWSChetwynd library poised for $190K facelift

CHETWYND — A $190,000 facelift for the Chetwynd Public Library three years in the making is moving forward after the Dis-trict of Chetwynd made an application to the Northern Development Initiative Trust (NDIT) for funding help this week.

The district-owned building, built in the 1960s, has had several additions over the years, leaving it with a disjointed look, according to library director Anna Peasgood.

“It looks like a building with several ad-ditions,” she said. “We would like it to look like one building. It’s not anything crazy or fancy, just bringing the (building) facade up to a point where it is able to last another 50 years.”

Funding for the project will be split between the Dis-trict of Chetwynd ($100,000), the Peace River Regional Dis-trict ($50,000) and the library ($8,400).

An application for the remaining $26,600 will go forward to the Northern Development Initiative Trust.

Improvements were last made on the building in 2012 when flooring was replaced.

“The renovations will not only give a facelift (to the building), but it will fix

some of the damage that time happens to give a building,” Peasgood said. “We’re happy the district and the PRRD worked

together in part-nership to rec-ognize the im-portance of the library in the community.”

The library board began de-sign work on the project three years ago, ensuring it fits

the mould of other buildings in town, Peas-good added.

“We don't want it to be a purple elephant,” she said.

The combination of wood paneling and stone work on the exterior will give a uni-form look with other munici-pal buildings.

Peasgood says she hopes the project can be completed by the end of the year in time for the 50th anniversary of the li-brary’s incorporation.

“We want (the building) to look as good on the outside as what we feel our programs and services are able to offer the community on the inside,” she said. “Something the commu-nity and staff can be proud of.”

DAWSON CREEK- The Dawson Creek Junior Canucks struggled to fi nd consistency all season long and in the end, that was too much to overcome as they dropped the North West Junior Hockey League best-of-fi ve series 3-0 to the County of Grande Prairie JDA Kings.

On the road in Clairmont with their backs against the wall, the Jr. C’s put up a valiant effort but fi nished the night Saturday on the wrong side of a 5-3 loss.

Neither team was able to fi nd the back of the net in the fi rst, but once again Jordan Rea found a way to stoke the fi re for the Canucks at the start of the second with a goal just 59 seconds into the period.

But, before the second was out, the Kings scored twice including a power

play marker to take a 2-1 lead after two. The Kings scored 5:46 into the third,

but Jordan Rea put Dawson Creek on his back with his fourth goal of the play-offs to cut the home side’s lead to one.

Grande Prairie restored the two goal lead just over two minutes later, but 24 seconds after that, Kohlman Brinksy scored his fi rst of the playoffs to cut the lead back to one.

Donald Gaudreault scored for the Kings with just 1:25 left remaining to clinch the game and the series for the Kings.

The Jr. C's fi red all they could at Kings goalie Andy Gilker with 36 shots on net, and Josh Round turned aside 40 shots in the 5-3 loss for Dawson Creek.

DAWSON CREEK — The Dawson Creek Chamber of Commerce is calling for letters of support from its members for the Pacific NorthWest liquefied natural gas export facility in Kitimat.

The project is in the environmental assess-ment phase and the chamber is asking for the

letters to be forwarded to the Canadian Envi-ronmental Assessment Agency.

"We encourage you to write letters of sup-port as soon as possible," a recent newsletter from the chamber states.

The environmental assessment agency's re-port on the project was released to the pub-lic Feb. 10. A 30-day comment period will end March 11.

SD 59 graduation rates climbDAWSON CREEK — Graduation

data is now available for the 2014-15 school year and the results for School District 59 are positive.

Although the district is behind the provincial average in terms of students graduating on time—77.6 per cent graduate on the fi rst try, compared to the provincial average of 83.9 percent—SD 59 is ahead of the rest of the province in Aboriginal education, with 68.4 per cent of First

Nations students graduating on the fi rst try, compared to the provincial average of 63 per cent.

For students who needed extra time to graduate, SD 59 boasted a 96 per cent completion rate for non-aboriginal students and a 94 per cent rate for aboriginal enrollees, both ahead of the provincial aver-ages of 95 per cent and 91 per cent, respectively.

The 2014-15 eligible grad rate is down from the 100 per cent the dis-trict achieved in 2013-14, but that is not a cause for concern, district spokesperson Candy Clouthier not-ed.

"That's just the variable you deal with," she said, saying that some-times students who are in a position

to graduate at the beginning of the year simply don't complete all the requirements on time.

The data revealed that Chetwynd Sec-ondary School (CSS) has the third high-est Aboriginal graduation rate in the prov-ince, among stu-dents living on-reserve.

CSS principal Chris Mason at-tributed this to the district’s coach/mentor program, and to the rela-tionships the school has built with Saulteau and West Moberley First Nations.

“We’re very happy with it,” he said. “Of course there is always room for improvement and we want to continue to do (that).”

SD 59 is the only district in the province that has a coach/mentor

From the P harmacist’s File

eyes are fi nally aff ected. There is no pain associated with macular degeneration. The most common symptoms are:

• blurred, washed out central vision• drop in sharpness• reduced colour perception• blind spot or black spot in the centre of

the visual fi eld• diffi culty seeing far straight lines that look wavy or

distorted (wet form)DiagnosisIt is recommended that all those over 50 years of

age go for an eye examination at least once every two years. Screening for macular degeneration can be done by an optometrist or an ophthalmologist. If detected early, it is possible to slow the progress of the disease and even stop it in the case of the wet form of the disease.

Two tests are commonly used to diagnose macular degeneration. The fi rst one, known as the Amsler grid, is used to assess whether straight lines are distorted and if there is a blind spot or black spots in the fi eld of vision. This test can also be used for follow-up purposes (see Amsler Grid published by Vigilance Sante). The second test is an examination called ophthalmoscopy. This test involves the use of eye drops to dilate the pupil which allows the specialist to examine the interior of the eye.

TreatmentThere is currently no treatment available to restore

lost visual acuity (sensitivity). Medications may be taken to slow the progress of macular degeneration. Taking certain vitamins and minerals also seems to slow the progression of the disease. Additionally, laser surgery can stop the progression of wet macular degeneration. Otherwise, individuals with this eye disease must learn to live with limited vision. There are vision rehabilitation clinics specialized in helping those with macular degeneration learn how to live with low vision and remain independent. To fi nd a clinic near you, contact the Canadian National Institute for the Blind (CNIB).

Macular degeneration is an eye disease that usually strikes older adults. It aff ects more than one million Canadians and is the leading cause of vision loss in the elderly.

The inside of the eye is lined with a light-sensitive membrane called the retina. The retina consists of specialized cells that detect colour and contrast. The macula is a small area at the centre of the retina responsible for central vision and fi ne detail vision. As its name implies, macular degeneration involves the deterioration of the macula. This leads to blurred central vision and can make certain activities such as reading and driving impossible. Although the disease can severely damage vision it rarely leads to complete blindness since it does not aff ect peripheral vision (around the center). Persons with macular degeneration could, for example, see the numbers on a clock, but would be unable to distinguish the hands.

There are two forms of macular degeneration:Dry• Dry macular degeneration is the most common

form and accounts for 80 to 90% of all cases. The loss of central vision is gradual and occurs over several years. It is often the result of a thinning of the macula or pigment deposits {coloration) on the macula.

Wet• Although less common, wet macular degeneration

is characterized by the sudden and severe loss of central vision. In this case, abnormal blood vessels develop under the macula. The vessels then leak fl uid or blood which partially destroys the light-sensitive cells in the macula. The macula can heal itself but scar tissue forms on the macula creating a black spot or “blind spot”.

Persons at Risk• Macular degeneration is associated with the normal

aging process. That being said, any person over the age of 50 years, particularly women, are “at risk”. Other risk factors include family history of macular degeneration, diabetes, high blood cholesterol, hypertension, eye disease and smoking.

SymptomsThe symptoms associated with macular degeneration

are limited to vision. Initially, the disease only aff ects one eye. This can delay diagnosis since the healthy eye generally compensates for the loss of vision in the aff ected eye. This can go on for several years before both

SD 59 graduation rates climbprogram for Aboriginal students.

The program matches students with a consultant to assist them in planning for both graduation and their careers after school.

“Coach/mentors will interview (students) and help them set goals and keep in contact to help keep them on track,” Clouthier said. “Since we have had it in place, we noticed a steady increase in the graduation rate for aboriginal stu-dents.”

Mason said the program has translated into success at his school not only by way of setting goals, but also through the relationships that are formed.

He said the program “goes beyond just meeting what they have to do,

but actually finding things that are in line with what they want to do further on in life.”

The program has been a feather in the district’s cap since its inception in 2009.

“What we were doing was just not working,” Clouthier said. “We weren’t seeing increases in gradu-ation so we (thought), let’s just try something totally different.”

Clouthier added that some of the lessons learned from the Aborigi-nal student-coach/mentor program have been applied to non-aboriginal students struggling in Grades 7, 8 and 9.

PEACE REGION — If it has wheels or treads and moves dirt, chances are there’s one sitting in the Grande Prairie Ritchie Brothers lot.

A notice for the auction house’s up-coming sale is a list of just about every piece of heavy equipment found in the oilpatch, including skid steers, graders, dump trucks, water trucks, vac trucks, and camp shacks.

In mid-March, Ritchie Bros. will hold an early spring auction—a relatively rare event scheduled to meet added demand.

“Size wise, it’s not a lot different from any of the other auctions we’ve had in Grande Prairie,” said Simon Wallan, vice-president of sales at Ritchie Bros. “But it’s one of the first March auctions we’ve had in the past five or six years.”

Some worry the sale—as well as a se-ries of massive auctions in Edmonton—are signs of a crippling sell-off of heavy equipment brought on by the oil down-turn.

“It’s pretty scary,” said Dawson Creek Chamber of Commerce Executive Di-rector Kathleen Connolly. “Anyone you talk to in industry right now, this is what they’re talking about: what’s going on at R.B.”

The sale includes equipment from Continental Pipeline, which suspended operations in Fort St. John earlier this year, as well as a “complete dispersal” of Pinnacle Services’ High Level fleet. As of Feb. 19, there were 1,766 items listed on the March auction.

Wallan said he couldn’t speculate on

why companies are selling.“We service customers for a lot of rea-

sons,” he said. “Obviously, the economy and the amount of work that’s out there dictates that. (Sellers) have made busi-ness decisions that they don’t need the equipment anymore or they’re ceasing to be in operation.”

Ian Marchuk, a Dawson Creek resi-dent who’s been in business in the oilpatch since the 1970s, said the next few auctions represent a once-in-a-generation loss of capital investment.

of capital investment: industry observers

| RITCHIE BROS. PHOTOHeavy equipment machinery auctioned by Ritchie Brothers in Edmonton in April 2015. The auction house will hold an early spring auction in mid-March in Grande Prairie—a relatively rare event scheduled to meet added demand.

and value of the work that has, all of a sudden, gone,” he said. “These next few sales—Prince George, Grande Prai-rie, Edmonton—are complete game changers.”

He added that watching the auction circuit is especially frustrating amid talk of bailouts for the aerospace industry in Quebec.

Connolly said many companies that can’t make payments on loans or equipment are being forced to sell.

“If you look at the list of what’s going to auction, not only in Grande Prairie but in Edmonton, it’s a lot of the oil and gas fleet. It’s vac trucks, it’s a lot of the service equipment.”

She suspected that with the weak dollar, much of that equipment will go to the United States.

If the oilpatch rebounds, “you’re buy-ing back against the American dollar. It’s brutal,” Connolly said.

“The bad side of that story is that when the economy does recover, is there going to be any equipment left in Western Canada?”

The Grande Prairie auction is set for March 14 and 15, with another sched-uled in April. Industrial sales in Ed-monton are set for this month, April and December.

Previous industrial auctions in Grande Prairie saw more than $40 mil-lion in sales.

PEACE REGION — Royalties and drilling rights sales are tumbling, but there's no oil and gas-sized hole in B.C.'s fiscal plan—yet.

The B.C. government tabled its 2016/17 budget Tuesday, a $47.5 spending plan that remains bal-anced despite major downturns in nearly every natural resource sec-tor.

Energy, metal and minerals are expected to account for $1.03 bil-lion in provincial revenues this year. But those incomes are sagging under weak prices, earlier windfalls are drying up and hopes for a lique-fied natural gas (LNG) export mar-ket remain shaky.

The government expects income from the sale of natural gas drilling rights—its largest source of energy

revenue—to decline 65 per cent over the next three years as the in-dustry copes with a crash in pric-es. At the same time, revenues set aside from billion-dollar land sales between 2007 and 2010—which helped offset one of the worst land sales on record last year—are run-ning low.

The province is forecasting natu-ral gas royalty revenues of $128 mil-lion for the 2016/2017 fiscal year, down from an estimated $151 mil-lion for 2015/2016. Both those fig-ures are well off from the $493 mil-lion collected in 2014/2015.

B.C. enjoyed even higher natu-ral gas royalty revenue during the 2000/2001 to 2008/2009 timeframe thanks to elevated gas prices. Dur-ing this period, gas revenue passed forestry — the traditional top in-dustry in the province — in terms of resource revenue.

While natural gas royalties are

expected to rebound starting in 2017, they won't be enough to off-set the drop in land sales.

Overall, income from energy, metals and minerals will shrink from $1.2 billion last fiscal year to $825 million in 2018/19, accord-ing to government figures.

TOUGH TRENDS

By 2020, the government hopes to see the first cargoes of LNG shipped to Asia, which would shore up natural gas revenues. But BC NDP critic Bruce Ralston said it remains to be seen whether any of the 20 proposed projects move for-ward.

LNG would open new markets for B.C. at a time when its biggest cus-tomer, the United States, is produc-ing record amounts of gas—a situ-ation some say poses an existential threat to the industry in Canada.

Seattle to Arctic car rally to pass through the Peace

DAWSON CREEK — Andrew Comrie-Picard has driven across the Baja desert, raced up Pikes Peak in Colorado and drifted with Hollywood actors in Budapest.

But even he admits driving the Alaska Highway in winter is a bit nuts.

Comrie-Picard and 30 other drivers looking to test their skills against some of the world's toughest winter roads will make their way through the Peace Region this week, a chal-lenge known as the Alcan 5000.

"We're all basically crazies who want to go and test our-selves," he told the Alaska Highway News.

The rally passes through Dawson Creek Feb. 26.The Alcan 5000 has been held every four years since 1984.

Motor-sports enthusiasts call it a time/speed/distance rally—not a race—a drive that's more about precision than speed.

"We have to keep to a very exact schedule, with exact speeds maintained through every section," Comrie-Picard said.

The route takes them onto side roads whenever possible—anything that presents a unique driving challenge.

"You can't afford to go the wrong way, you can't do a lot of slipping and sliding around," he said. "You have to drive very elegantly."

"My stock and trade is driving 200 kilometres an hour down a one-lane dirt road on the edge of a mountain, miss-ing trees," said Comrie-Picard, who grew up on a farm out-side Edmonton. "(The Alcan) really is a terrific challenge. It's for every driver and team to test their wits against the roads and the weather."

The race, sponsored by the tire company BFGoodrich, begins in Seattle and ends in Anchorage, with a checkpoint in the Arctic circle.

From Seattle, the drivers will head to Quesnel, then Grim-shaw, then Yellowknife for speed trials on Great Slave Lake.

From there, they'll dip down to Fort Nelson, picking up the Alaska Highway to Fairbanks. The rally will reach its northernmost point at Coldfoot, Alaska, before crossing the finish line in Anchorage.

Comrie-Picard and co-driver Brad Lovell will drive a Jeep Wrangler outfitted with heavy tires, extra fuel, survival gear, and a satellite phone. They even carry dog food—a nutri-tious, compact meal which can be eaten in survival situa-tions.

"It really is a terrific challenge," he said. "They do it only once every four years, because that's the only time they can get 30 crazies who want to do it."

RESOURCE WORKS PHOTOStewart Muir, executive director of the think tank Resource Works, said declining resource revenues are cause for concern.

As windfall of earlier years evaporates, province faced with lower and lower

resource revenue

Premier Christy Clark has said sales to Asia, where prices are high-er, are needed to prevent the sector from going into decline.

Despite those pressures, B.C. sold more gas last year than in 2014. The province sent 43.9 billion cubic metres down the pipeline in the last fiscal year, compared to 39.3 billion cubic metres the year before.

However, the industry was less profitable due to the fall in prices.

Gas reached its highest point of the past 10 years in June 2008, sell-ing for $9.34 per gigajoule. In 2014, gas peaked at just under $6.

The government predicts prices will recover slowly, averaging $1.04 per gigajoule in 2017 before climb-ing to $1.61 in 2019.

'REALLY UNUSUAL'

Stewart Muir, executive director of the think tank Resource Works, said declining resource revenues are cause for concern.

In an article on the group's web-site, he noted resource revenues are declining at a time when healthcare and other costs are "soaring."

"Collective natural resource rev-enues this year are below five per cent" of total revenues, "which is really unusual," he told the Alaska Highway News.

"From a fiscal planning perspec-tive, you'd have to think they're not heavily counting on those revenues in the next two years," he said, say-ing royalties and land sales would recover if LNG projects move for-ward.

He added that the natural gas industry is unique because it pays both royalties and export fees, in addition to the taxes paid by other businesses. An analysis by Resource Works found strong correlations between capital spending in the resource sector, housing starts and business incorporations.

"The bottom line is this: the more that's invested in building our natu-ral resources sector, the more busi-nesses are created, and the more jobs are created," he said.

PEACE REGION — Three-hour wait times greeted more than 1,000 job seek-ers in Dawson Creek last Thursday, joining hundreds of others around the Peace Region in the latest round of Site C job fairs.

Job hunters from as far away as Mer-ritt and Hope flooded the doors of the George Dawson Inn. The scene was similar Friday in Fort St. John at the Pomeroy Hotel. All were hoping to find work on the largest infrastructure proj-ect in the province.

"We had people lined up out the door of the hotel right from an hour before (we opened)," BC Hydro spokesperson Bob Gammer said.

"This is early days in the project," he added. "As other large contracts are (awarded) we will see other skills need-ed. So, even if (people) aren't the perfect fit this time around it's likely we will see

other job fairs in the future."Job fairs held earlier in the week were

also packed. More than 400 showed up in Tumbler Ridge, with another 500-plus showing up in Chetwynd.

ATCO Two Rivers Lodging Group, who will build the hotel-like camp that will house the dam's workforce, Duz Cho Construction, SecuriGuard and Peace River Hydro Partners, the main civil works contractor, were some of the companies taking resumes.

BC Hydro is encouraging contrac-tors to hire local applicants first, despite many in attendance having travelled long distances at the promise of work, Gammer said.

Jim Schilling of Peace River Hydro Partners said his company is taking all the resumes they can get and will evalu-ate them based on their merits.

“People have travelled a long way

| MIKE CARTER PHOTOOfficials with Peace River Hydro Partners, the main civil works contractor for the Site C dam, said they expected to receive more than 1,000 resumes during a job fair in Dawson Creek on Thursday. The company received 498 re-sumes from a job fair in Chetwynd and 407 in Tumbler Ridge earlier in the week, while hundreds more job hunters rushed to hand in theirs at a job fair in Fort St. John on Friday.

Peace River Hydro Partners cur-rently has 47 people dedicated to the project, Schilling said.

“As the construction people start to develop their team, they’ll need op-erators, first aid, environmental moni-tors, mechanics, we’ll have resumes to draw from.”

Natalie Lawrence, a welder, drove from Grande Prairie to Dawson Creek get her name in the mix. She is new to the job hunt after she was laid off Feb. 12.

“(I) waited three hours,” she said. “It was about a minute-long inter-view where we had a chance to explain what experience we had. Hopefully I hear back soon.”

Kevin, a trucker from Fort St. John who didn’t share his last name, was one of the many waiting in line Friday at the Pomeroy.

“I’m still working, but it’s been cut down to three or four days a week,” he

said. He fears his hours might be cut further when the spring break-up puts a damper on logging season.

Another trucker at the job fair Fri-day in Fort St. John, Tammie Jensen, said she has been out of a job since October.

“I’m just hoping for steady employ-ment,” she said. “It would be nice to have local work with steady hours and benefits, knowing you’re going to be getting up for work every day and knowing when your days off are.”

That sentiment was echoed by Greg Young, a contractor and heavy duty mechanic who is recently unem-ployed.

“I’m just looking for anything, doesn’t matter what it is,” Young said. “It’s all about getting a job.”

Site C job fairs will continue next week in Prince George, Quesnel and Mackenzie, then back up north to Fort Nelson for March 2.

PEACE REGION — Two Peace Re-gion mayors are among the most influential women in the province, according to BC Business.

On Wednesday, the magazine released its list of the top-35 most influential women in B.C. The list includes Fort St. John Mayor Lori Ackerman, who was recognized for working "steadfastly" to make sure her city benefits from the Site C dam.

She was joined by Hudson's Hope Mayor Gwen Johansson, who was recognized for being a power-ful voice of opposition against the dam.

Johansson said it was an honour to be included.

"I have to say that I have never noticed that influence," she joked. "I can't put my finger on anything that has happened because of my voice."

But, she added, it's nice for the community to know that people are

listening to their concerns.The people most directly impact-

ed by projects such as Site C should receive the greatest benefits and compensation, Johansson told the Alaska Highway News.

"That's not how this works un-fortunately," she said.

Johansson has advocated for a Peace River version of the Colum-bia Basin Trust, which compen-sates communities on the Colum-bia River impacted by hydroelectric projects.

"The Peace has never received that kind of consideration," she said. "You can talk to individu-als and point that out and the say 'oh, that's right.' But nothing ever comes of it."

Ackerman could not be reached for comment.

BC Business consulted with a panel of experts to decide who would be on the list.

DAWSON CREEK — High school students from across Northeast B.C. had a chance to strut their stuff in a regional skills competition Fri-day in Dawson Creek, while Grade 7 students got a sneak peek at some of the trades they might want to pursue as a career.

Skills Canada BC and Northern Lights College, along with School Districts 59, 60, and 81, combined efforts to pack bodies into the col-lege's aircraft hangar Feb. 19.

The skills competition was one of 13 regional contests in the prov-ince where students from Grades 6 to 12 showcased their talents in trades and technologies.

At the same time, industry pro-fessionals and current students at the college walked Grade 7 stu-dents through different trades, in-cluding carpentry, digital media arts, plumbing, auto service and welding.

"We have everything from car-penters building tool boxes with kids (to) wind turbine techni-cians helping kids design different blades," School District 59 career program co-ordinator Brad Booker said, adding the wind turbine techs flew in from Texas and Minnesota to take part.

Students rotated through 18 dif-ferent "try-a-trade" stations spend-ing about 20 minutes at each.

"Five minutes to meet an indus-try professional, get some informa-tion about what their job is like and how they got where they are and

then about 15 minutes of hands-on activity," Booker said.

Tim Roberts, a plumbing instruc-tor at the college, had his first-year students draw up a small blueprint that he used to show kids the basics of the trade.

"Basically, we're just going through what a plumber does," he said. "Most people (think) we just work on toilets and that's it. But there's so much more."

Roberts spoke proud-ly about one project his class is working on: a solar mockup heating panel for domestic hot water, which he show-cased to students as an example of some of the innovative work plumb-ers are involved in.

"In Dawson Creek now, every house has to be solar-ready," Roberts said. "We have to take pipe from the mechanic room where the hot wa-ter tank is up into the attic so that it's ready. That's one of the new things we're doing in the trade, building these mockups and show-ing students how they work."

Booker said the event was much bigger than last year.

"What was neat about last year is when we got our evaluation forms back, the things that the kids were excited about

were the atypical trades," Booker said. "Different things that they never would have had the oppor-tunity to try out. That's the breadth of exposure we wanted to give ... something other than what they might try out at home on the week-end."

Historians lament rejection of heritage bylaw

PEACE REGION — Local historians say they're frustrated with the Peace River Regional District's decision to toss aside a heritage bylaw that would have seen new protections for historic sites in Northeast B.C.

The board opted not to revive the proposed bylaw at its Feb. 11 meeting, citing uncertainty in the local economy.

Heather Sjoblom, curator of the Fort St. John North Peace Museum, asked the regional board to have another look at heritage protections, which failed to pass several years ago.

She said the regional district missed an opportunity to diversify the local economy.

"Heritage, arts and culture are often what is cut first in times of economic crisis," said Sjoblom.

"But with 2017 being the 150th an-niversary of Canada as well as the 75th anniversary of the Alaska Highway, it's maybe time to diversify our economy a little into tourism, and heritage preser-vation can play a role in that."

Anne Haycock of the South Peace Historical Society, echoed Sjoblom’s disappointment.

“We really did count on the region-

al district,” Haycock said.

The failure of the bylaw is another blow to the South Peace Historical Society, which had a funding request for a full-time archivist turned down by the City of Dawson Creek earlier this year.

“All of these things are not insurmount-able,” she said. “It’s just that, coming at this time when we want to concentrate on 2017, it’s a real pain. We’re struggling because it’s so important. If you don’t know where you came from, you don’t know where you’re going.”

The PRRD considered consulting with local historical societies and mu-nicipalities to find out how it could create a function to preserve histori-cal buildings and sites in the region.

The price tag for this was estimated at $10,000. The board backed away from the proposal because it would need to recoup that money by raising taxes.

“It would have been nice to at least

start a process (and a) conversation about what form this bylaw would take,” Sjoblom said.

Haycock found it odd the regional district didn’t involve historical societ-ies in the process earlier.

“They didn’t ask us for help,” she said. “We could have helped them (with con-sultation), but they didn’t ask. I think it’s very backward thinking of them to not even help out in a little way. They would’t have had to do much, because our orga-nizations are here with the knowledge and (we’re) ready to help.”

For now, the historical societies say they will do what they can to preserve

the region’s history without new finan-cial support from local governments.

Haycock said her organization is working to create a new regional his-torical society that would represent museums in all seven Peace Region communities, as well as area First Na-tions and even residents with their own historical collections.

“We need to do something to keep our heritage here because none of the other groups want to do this,” Haycock said. “We’re going to keep hammering away because we have to… we’re disap-pointed but we’re looking at other alter-natives.”

Hopes dimmed in bid to preserve history, assist tourism ahead of 2017 Alaska Highway celebrations

| BRONWYN SCOTT PHOTOFort St. John North Peace Museum Curator Heather Sjoblom says heritage preservation plays a role in tourism and the upcoming Alaska Highway celebrations in 2017.

Stop Bullying

NOWThese days it’s rare to fi nd primary and

high school students who have not, at one time or another, been the victim of bullying and harassment at school. This sad reality contaminates the atmosphere of a school and, unfortunately, it can harm the social development of our children.

Bullying and harassment are characterized by a bully’s repeatedly a g g r e s s i v e b e h a v i o r towards a victim. This includes physical, verbal, or psychological abuse that can take the form of threats, extortion, shoving or hitting, insulting, humiliating, or coordinated rejection.

Girls can be bullies just as much as boys. Boys usually resort to physical violence, while girls tend to use verbal abuse and coordinated rejection, such as by suggesting that “nobody” talk to the victim. Peers can become passive participants in bullying as well, whether by providing an audience for the bully or by not informing school authorities of acts of bullying they are

witness to. The consequences of this kind of violence

can be serious, as much for the bully as for the victim. Statistics show that young people who

were bullies at school are more likely to face criminal charges in the

courtrooms as adults. On the other side of things,

victims often show signs of anxiety

and can become isolated, with school marks and social skills bearing the brunt of the effects. Even worse, some people

who are bullied eventually feel

so helpless and hopeless that they

consider suicide or taking revenge in a

violent way.In order to fi ght bullying in

schools, it is important to encourage young people to be more assertive, without being aggressive. It is also important, in schools and in families, to cultivate a culture of tolerance and acceptance of those who appear different. Children should be encouraged to report any form of bullying they experience or witness.

These days it’s rare to fi nd primary and witness to.
