All School District 27 schools will remain closed until further notice unless there is a resolu-tion soon to the teacher dispute.

“As we near our regular school startup time there is much un-certainty as to whether we will be able to start on time,” Super-intendent Mark Thiessen said in his report to parents Wednesday.

“While we remain hopeful that a negotiated provincial set-tlement can be reached before school for students is supposed

to begin on Wednesday, Sept. 3, we have no way of knowing if this will be the case.”

As of Wednesday, Thiessen said local schools are back be-hind picket lines. As long as the dispute continues he said most programs will not be running in the district.

This includes the StrongStart programs, before and after-school daycares, and commu-nity use of schools.

However, he said the full-day

daycares that occupy space in school facilities will continue to operate if they did so during the last two weeks of June. He asks parents who have questions re-garding their particular full-day daycare provider to confirm the status of the daycare.

For more information check out the School District 27 web-site at www.sd27.bc.ca.

“If a provincial agreement is reached or there is other emer-gent news, we will inform par-

ents about the status of schools as quickly as we can through our website and local media outlet,” Thiessen says.

For other updates check out www.bcpsea.bc.ca and www.bctf.ca

“This has been a very diffi-cult time for everyone involved,” Thiessen says. “We thank you for your continued patience and will continue to do our best to keep you informed in a timely manner.”

academic excellence recognized

Monica Lamb-Yorski photoLake City Secondary School graduate Ellen Kaufman is presented with the Governor General’s Academic Medal by LCSS principal Gregg Gaylord (left) and Williams Lake Secondary campus vice-principals Curt Levens and Ken Lucks. Ellen, who said she achieved a 97.8 or 97.9 per cent average, is off to the University of Northern B.C. to pursue a Bachelor of Nursing Degree. She also received a full scholarship for tuition from UNBC. Lord Dufferin, Canada’s third Governor General after Confederation, created the Academic Medals in 1873 to encourage academic excellence across Canada. Over the years, the bronze medals, one of which Ellen holds here, have become the most prestigious award that students in Canadian schools can receive.

BcSTa calls for strike savings to be usedfor class size/composition

The BC School Trustees Association is calling for govern-ment to immediately put strike savings back into schools to help address concerns regarding class size and composition.

BCSTA president Teresa Rezansoff is-sued the call in an open letter Thursday, Aug. 27.

“We have called on the government to immediately put

strike savings back into schools to help address concerns re-garding class size and composition,” Rezan-soff said.

“We have told the Ministers of Edu-cation and Finance that the money for the proposed $40-a-day subsidy for par-ents would be better spent on students in schools.”

She also said the school trustees be-

lieve that teachers deserve a fair wage increase, but the BCTF’s overall com-pensation proposal needs to be aligned with other B.C. pub-lic sector agreements.

“We continue our advocacy for im-proved education funding, and our trustee representa-tives at the bargain-ing table are calling for maintaining flex-ibility on class size and composition to improve the learning settings for students,” Rezansoff.

“The two parties are approximately a percentage point apart on salary and one year apart on the proposed term of the contract — items that could be resolved through mediation.”

The province has proposed a two-week truce with striking teachers to at least al-

low B.C. schools to re-open as scheduled next week while a mediated settlement is pursued.

The idea of a cool-ing-off period allowing classes to start while

mediated talks pro-ceed was put to B.C. Teachers Federation president Jim Iker by Education Minister Peter Fassbender and government negotiator

Peter Cameron.There was no deal be-

tween the two sides by press deadline but both sides said progress was made in the 90-minute meeting Wednesday

afternoon and media-tor Vince Ready was to begin exploratory talks Thursday.

The BCTF has not yet responded to the proposal but Iker indi-

cated he needed union membership approval to halt picketing and urged full mediation to begin immediately.

Fassbender told Black Press he’s sur-

prised and disap-pointed the union head wouldn’t quickly agree to a strike suspension.

The banning of smoking in public places is starting to see positive changes in many areas of healthcare. One

benefit is a 10% drop in the rates of pre-term births and childhood asthma where smoking bans have been initiated. Unfortunately, only 16% of the people of the world are covered by these non-smoking laws and 40% of the world’s children are still exposed to second-hand smoke.A peptic ulcer is a breakdown in the protective lining of the stomach or part of the small intestine. In the “old days” prior to the 1970s, treatment consisted of dietary changes, lots of antacids and possibly even an operation. Today we know that most peptic ulcers are caused by the bacterium, H. Pylori. It infects 1 in 4 people but most don’t get an ulcer Those that do can be treated with antibiotics and a powerful acid-reducer. No more bland diets or surgery today!Pharmacists are asked about the benefits of eating garlic or supplements to help certain ailments. It has been used for medicinal purposes for thousands of years in India, China and Egypt. The current scientific evidence says it may possibly be effective for reducing high blood pressure, keeping arteries healthy, reducing the risk of colon, rectal and stomach cancer (if eaten raw). It is unlikely to help those with diabetes, peptic ulcers, high cholesterol or preventing breast cancer. Some people say that garlic helps prevent the common cold. If it works for you, that’s great. There is not a lot of high quality evidence that this is so but the side effects are minimal if you take it. Our pharmacists can add a balanced perspective to many of the popular herbal treatments. There’s a lot of hype out there. We can add some common sense to it all. Consult your doctor, too.

Educators brush up on teaching skills Local educators were

reminded how hard it can be to decipher po-etry during a summer institute held in Wil-liams Lake at Thom-son Rivers University this week.

For two days more than 90 teachers and administrators were immersed in tools to help students with lit-eracy comprehension under the leadership of workshop facilitator Debbie Miller.

“We’ve been remem-bering how hard it is to analyze a poem,” Miller said. “I’m here giving them some ideas for literacy comprehen-sion.”

On Wednesday after-

noon participants had spent time looking at the Rich Lizard, a poem by Deborah Chandra.

In the poem, the liz-ard sheds its skin of silver coins and warms his blood to grander things.

When it was her turn to talk about the poem, teacher Diana Kershaw chuckled and said in her younger days a liz-ard was someone who hung out in lounges.

“I had to realize that my older process of thinking could stop me from going forward,” she explained.

One of the summer institute organizers, Lori Kelly, said the ex-ercise was a reminder that the end isn’t always important, but what’s done to get there.

“Debbie’s been re-minding us about that,” Kelly said.

During the opening session Tuesday, the

group made manifestos for students and staff.

“In ours we said we wanted to be a risk-taking place that was

willing to fail,” institute organizer and teacher Tanis Stewart said. “We also said we want-ed to be authentic and

learn about real world activities. Students to-day are so savvy and knowledgeable, we have to be.”

Aside from Williams Lake and its outly-ing district, teachers and administrators also came from Port Hardy, the Nechako School District, Prince George, Quesnel and Kamloops.

There were also ven-dors from Vancouver and Salmon Arm.

“The community is always very supportive of us,” Stewart said. “They give us dona-tions for door prizes.”

Frances Bisaro, also part of the organizing committee, said the in-stitute is always a great way to rev up for the new school year.

“It’s an amazing way to get us going as a team of teachers.”

Based in Denver, CO., Miller is an in-ternationally known educator, consultant, and author of Reading with Meaning, Teach-ing with Intentions, No More Independent Reading Without Sup-port.

She has taught pri-mary grades in the public schools for more than 30 years and works with schools and districts on long-range planning and develop-ment of literacy pro-grams.

“These guys are al-ready doing some great things in the schools here,” Miller smiled as she looked around the room.

Jamie Haller launches civil suit A Williams Lake

First Nations woman who suffered injuries while in police cus-tody three years ago has filed a civil claim against three RCMP officers and the City of Williams Lake as the employer responsible for police conduct.

Jamie Haller, who will turn 20 next week, filed a notice of civ-il claim in Supreme

Court of British Co-lumbia in Vancouver on Monday, Aug. 25.

She is seeking relief for general and special damages, punitive, ag-gravated and exempla-ry damages, compen-sation and costs.

“The plaintiff claims for battery, wrong-ful arrest, malicious prosecution, misfea-sance in public office, a breach of the Charter of Rights and Free-doms,” the notice of claim states.

“The plaintiff also claims for failure to protect and failure to investigate her reports to police.”

Originally a charge of assault was made against Williams Lake RCMP Const. Andy Yung.

The case was heard in Williams Lake pro-vincial court for three days in January 2013 and resulted in Yung being acquitted.

Originally the BC Civil Liberties Asso-

ciation called for an independent investi-gation of the incident and filed a complaint against the RCMP un-der the Police Act.

In a press release Tuesday, Aug. 26, BC-CLA executive direc-tor Josh Paterson said First Nations people in this province are over policed and under-pro-tected by law enforce-ment.

“Jamie Haller’s ar-rest, and her treatment by police, are just an-

other terrible example of that,” Paterson said.

Williams Lake RCMP Sgt. Rick Leb-euf said he could not comment on the case, but confirmed that Yung and Const. Dan-iel Hay, also named in the civil claim, have relocated to work at other RCMP detach-ments.

“The City has no comment on the matter at this time,” said Ken MacInnis, communi-cations co-ordinator.

RCMP issuenew scam alert

At least two people in Williams Lake have reported that they have recently received phone calls or e-mails from people trying to get money or bank-ing information from them. Fortunately they realized in time that the call was likely a scam.

RCMP in Prince George also report that another scam is being operated in the region by fraudsters claiming to be a family mem-ber or a close friend of a family member and advising the potential victim about an urgent situation that requires immediate funds.

Prince George Cpl. D.J. (Dave) Tyreman said common themes have been that the fam-ily member was arrest-ed or got into an acci-dent while travelling abroad. Thus fees are required for hospital expenses, or bail.

Since 2009, the Ca-nadian Anti-Fraud Centre has received 17,132 emergency scam complaints ac-counting for more than 24 million dollars in reported losses.

The average loss per victim was $3,743.07.

Of the 17,132 com-plaints there were 11,889 emergency scam occurrences re-ported by Canadians.

Know how to protect yourself.

Confirm with other relatives the where-abouts of the family member or friend. Po-lice, judges or legal entities will never re-quest that money be

sent through money service business such as Western Union or MoneyGram.

Never voluntarily give out family mem-bers names or infor-mation to unknown callers. Always ques-tion urgent requests for money.

Ollie Martens says she was in the middle of making a dozen pies when she received a call from someone claiming to be from a publishing company saying she had won some money and ask-ing her for information on how to deliver the money. She said the scammer asked for her mother’s maiden name, and gave it, but fortu-nately twigged to the scam when they asked for her bank number.

Martens said she normally would have recognized a scam a lot sooner and told the caller to get lost, but being preoccupied with her project she wasn’t as on her toes to this type of call as she might have been. She cautions others not to let their guards down.

“It’s the principle of the thing,” Martens said. “It just irritates me that people will try to take money from you by trying to get your bank information or use your grandchil-dren to get money. We know our children and grandchildren.”

“When Pets need a Helping Hand”

MY BEST FRIEND

Buddy Bartosch,one tough little cat!

Leg hold traps are dangerous for family pets!! Use them responsibly and remember to warn the neighbors. Buddy was missing for 5 days when he arrived home dragging a #3 (a very big) leg hold trap. After several days of managing the infection, the rest of the stump was able to be amputated. Buddy is recovering well and anxious to prove he is as good on 3 legs as he was on 4. Beware mice - Buddy is back!

Pause in pickets would open window for mediation

“I had hoped, may-be unrealistically, that Mr. Iker was in a position to agree that there was noth-ing there that com-promised their abil-ity to negotiate with a mediator in the room, that we could see school commence on Tuesday so that students can learn and teachers can be paid,” the minister said.

“We are just asking them to voluntarily stand down and let classes start while the parties are in media-tion.”

The B.C. Public School Employers Association would also suspend lockout activity if the truce goes ahead.

Ready is only ex-pected to enter full mediation if he de-cides the two sides get close enough to put a deal in reach.

Fassbender’s pro-posal also calls on the union to set aside potential grievances arising from the last

court ruling on class size and composi-tion, now under ap-peal by the province.

He said that would leave the issue — po-tentially a liability of nearly $250 million a year for the province — to the court ap-peal.

Fassbender said setting aside the

grievances isn’t a pre-condition for media-tion but said he be-lieved doing so would allow focused talks on the key issues — wages, class size and composition — and potentially get the sides into the settle-ment zone Ready re-quires.

Fassbender insist-

ed government won’t legislate an end to the dispute.

“Legislation has been the pattern in the past and it has not resulted in sta-bility. It has actually created uncertainty and instability and that’s why we are not prepared to do it.”

B.C. School Trust-

ees Association pres-ident Teresa Rezan-soff called on both sides to move from their positions to put students first and ensure schools open Tuesday.

She said the BCTF compensation de-mand must come closer to what other public sector unions

have accepted and the government should plow strike savings into schools rather than redirect-ing it to parents.

“The money for the proposed $40-a-day subsidy for par-ents would be better spent on students in schools,” Rezansoff said in an open letter.

Monica Lamb-Yorski photoTeachers in Williams Lake move the picket line to Herb Gardner Park and Oliver Street in downtown Williams Lake Thursday morning. There are approximately 360 teachers in School District 27 and 60 teachers on call. As of press time Thursday a deal had not been reached between the B.C. Teachers Federation and the government, meaning a start up for school next week has not been solidified. Teachers will picket again at the same location today, Aug. 29, if no deal has been reached.

no net needed for bluebirds and butterfliesOf course, Canadians are happy

people, aren’t they? Out of 156 countries ‘tested,’ Canada comes up sixth — one of the happiest nations on the planet! Yet in spite of a broad stream of references to “fun” in our lives, happiness seems to be more and more scarce.

How do we hold onto the ‘but-terfly kiss’ of delight, or keep the ‘bluebird of happiness’ from flying away?

Books on “how to be happy” have multiplied like fruit flies. Should we shop? Eat more? Do more? Less? Plan a vacation?

Our present age could easily be labelled “The Age of Acquisition.”

“I want” bombards my ears so often that perhaps what “I need” exists already.

And we are still unhappy. Where have the bluebirds and

butterflies gone?

If I went looking, where would I find bliss?

I want a gladness I can keep — a pleasure to preserve.

Not a hole in my net. Perhaps I should just smile. A

smile changes our brain chemistry. And a ‘thankfulness list’ can lift our spirits.

But is that happiness?

That perverse topic operates backwards at the best of times.

As Vaillant said, “Happiness isn’t about me.”

It never is. Happiness is one tough-to-han-

dle substance!It needs to be on the move if it is

going to exist.Held closely, happiness is toxic.But when passed around, it

grows and gathers fragrance.Want to grab joy?Hand it grandly to someone

else. Perhaps with our statistics, the

whole world will soon be moving to Canada.

But if folk come to Williams Lake seeking happiness, they won’t find it.

It does exist in this area, howev-er — well camouflaged and shyly concealed.

Happiness is reclusive; it lives in the unhappiest of places.

Happiness hides its colour and lightness among the unfortunate and downtrodden.

It can be found in a home full of sick children and laundry.

Its delight is buried deeply be-hind mountains of work.

It lurks in the shadows of filthy, unsuccessful, old, smelly, lonely, frightened and wicked places.

Those unhappy places hold the most happiness; they are where happiness is caught. Misery is the net.

You want to be happy? Then “Be unhappy,” I say. Be unhappy if you haven’t helped someone lately.

Be unhappy if you have no pur-pose outside yourself.

Be unhappy, really unhappy un-til a place to contribute and meet a need is claimed as your own.

Two miserable women came separately into my office one day. Lots of things had gone wrong.

Life offered them no quick fixes, and maybe no tangible hope at all. Both of them had their nets out, seeking the chirping of those glee-ful birds and the touch of butter-flies that kept escaping.

Their take-home assignment was to find someone who was struggling and offer to help. Then the two women were introduced to each other. Their focus improved, their troubles faded, and after a while, the bluebirds and butterflies reappeared, unbidden.

Happiness is captured in some-one else’s need.

Then bluebirds and butterflies will be everywhere. No net needed. [email protected].

Flip switch on cell phones

Before jumping all over ICBC for requesting an increase of 5.2 per cent for basic insurance, let’s look at their reasons for the request.

Claims are up — way up — from five years ago.

Bodily injury claims hit $1.9 bil-lion in 2013, up $73 million from 2012 and by more than $500 mil-lion from five years earlier.

That’s 33 per cent higher than five years ago. Legal and medical costs are also up.

And what has happened in the past five years? Technology.

The ever-growing use of cell-phones and other personal elec-tronic devices by drivers is a major factor cited for the rise in injury claims.

But why should those of us with-out cell phones pay more because of the irresponsibility of some of those with them? Perhaps it’s time for ICBC to start awarding further reductions to those who do not have cell phones, or those who do not use them in their cars.

Of course, something like that would be near impossible to moni-

tor. The real solution is for the au-tomotive industry to jump in and rectify the situation.

Here’s how. Install a mechanism in the motor of the car that renders smartphones, laptops and other such instrumentation useless, while the engine is engaged.

Impossible? Hardly. After all, you can turn on the lights of your Courtenay house from your hotel room in Victoria now. A disengage switch for smartphones et al should be a breeze.

Too “Big Brother” for you? Don’t consider it “Big Brother”; consider it improvement to vehicle safety for the good of all.

Remember, seatbelts used to be optional; as did motorcycle hel-mets. Plenty of people protested those laws as well. But we eventu-ally got over it.

Heaven forbid that we should be forced to drive without the use of a phone, or a laptop, or a DVD player. That’s so 1990.

And what did car insurance cost in 1990?

Ruts in road to farmland changes

Forest sustainability an environmental dead-end without biodiversityB.C.’s forests are doing better

than many areas but there is al-ways room for improvement.

Tony Kryzanowski (June/July 2014 issue of the Logging and Sawmilling Journal) reported some interesting findings about forest biodiversity.

A recent report from the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization was warning about monoculture reforestation in Chi-na, India and Vietnam.

Many of the forests in these ar-eas are planted with single species for commercial purposes, mainly palm oil and rubber plantations.

This practice has been blamed for a four-year drought in this tra-ditionally rain-rich area because these species use much more water than the native species.

There are similar practices in New Zealand, Sweden, Brazil and some parts of the USA. Most of the privately held forest lands plant intensively managed mono-cultures like radiate pine, yellow pine and eucalyptus.

Tony’s article ends with this

warning: “We have to be extremely careful in the management of our crown forest resources to ensure that biodiversity is maintained and that we are not turning what would naturally have been a mixed forest into coniferous monocul-tures strictly for financial gain.”

As part of the ongoing discus-sions on the Williams Lake Tim-ber Supply Area (TSA) it would appear that our silviculture prac-tices will lead to a greater biodiver-sity than the monocultures men-tioned above.

Figure one of the Williams Lake TSA discussion paper shows the parks in and surrounding the TSA along with the following summary.

The TSA covers about 4.93 mil-

lion hectares, of which approxi-mately 66 per cent — 3,238,188 hectares — is Crown forest land base (CFLB).

About 1,408,272 hectares of the TSA are in reserves for old growth, wildlife habitat, wildlife tree patch-es or riparian areas, in areas of en-vironmental sensitivity or low pro-ductivity, non-merchantable forest types, or for other reasons are un-available for timber harvesting.

About 56 per cent of the CFLB, or 37 per cent of the total TSA area, comprise the current timber harvesting land base (THLB) of 1,829,922 hectares.

Figure two shows the main com-mercial forest species consist of 64 per cent pine, 15 per cent Douglas fir, nine per cent spruce and minor amounts of balsam, cedar and hemlock.

Biodiversity should be main-tained since a good portion of our forests are not in the THLB and therefore not destined for harvest-ing and any associated manipula-tion of the natural stand structure.

For example, the reduction of

the deciduous hardwoods in fa-vour of the more marketable soft-woods like pine, fir and spruce sawlogs for lumber.

Our silviculure practices also recognize the diverse ecological sites and attempt to plant trees that replicate the original species.

Past and present silviculture practices will have some impact on the commercial species on some sites within the THLB.

For example, we have tradition-ally favored lodgepole pine trees in many areas and planted a dispro-portionate amount in some areas.

We have also tried to reduce competition from deciduous spe-cies using herbicides, mechanical control and in some cases use of animals which will give the coni-fers an advantage at establishment.

The greatest impact of our man-agement practices on the THLB will likely be the change in age class structure resulting in a much greater percentage of younger trees after our first rotation.

This has a number of people concerned since some of the old-

est and largest trees have been growing on the better sites that are mostly found in the THLB.

This can have an influence on biodiversity in that many plant and animal species change as the age of a stand becomes much old-er.

In conclusion, our forest prac-tices are much different from monoculture practices mentioned above. While our practices are not likely to result in anything that resembles a monoculture we may be over treating some stands to re-duce hardwood competition.

It is always a good idea to con-tinually examine our forest prac-tices in light of new research and potential markets and keep in mind the original stand structure may be the most logical choice in the long run.

The month-long Agricultural Land Commission consultation closed Aug. 22, and the B.C. gov-ernment is compiling the feedback received from a province-wide tour and invitation to comment.

I can’t tell you much about the official input. The consultation sessions were by invitation only, with no media allowed, and the submissions via website are also not public.

I reached Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick as he was travel-ling around B.C. with his camper van, conducting his own meet-ings with farmers. He’s not saying much either, except that a sum-mary of the findings should be made public in September as the government considers new regu-lations.

The aim of this exercise is to consider relaxing rules around secondary farmland uses in the Interior, Kootenay and North re-gions, as well as food processing and retail sales of food and bev-erages on farmland. Also under consideration is allowing brewer-ies and distilleries, as wine and ci-der production are now allowed, and relaxing rules to permit more off-farm products to be sold from farms.

Letnick defended the 30-day summer consultation as ade-quate. It’s based on 11 questions developed with staff, farm groups and local government. He’s also not counting how many emails were stacked up by proponents or critics.

“I’m not conducting a plebi-scite,” Letnick said. “What I’m

trying to do is come up with the best balance of recommendations to make to government that can hold their own based on the idea and the potential positive and negative consequences.”

NDP agriculture critic Lana Popham was more forthcoming. She was invited to the formal ses-sions, and also won’t talk about them directly. But she’s not back-ing away from her criticisms.

The government is proposing to bypass the Agricultural Land Commission for several kinds of decisions, including subdivision for family use or into properties of 160 acres or more.

“I think the general idea was that people trust the ALC to make that decision, and it should still go through the commission,” Popham said. “Actually the com-mission has been making those decisions anyway, and I think they’ve been quite fair when somebody applies.”

She said farmers also aren’t sold on the notion of easing the rules for secondary businesses.

“You will already find situ-ations where there’s, let’s say a welding shop or something like that attached to somebody’s resi-dence who lives on ALR land,” Popham said. “That sort of stuff has been allowed, but it’s always had to go through the ALC or some sort of process that’s been in place. This leaves that process out, and so I think that’s the prob-lem people are having.”

She noted that non-farm activi-ties have a way of growing until they become the main business.

A reader who attended the

Kelowna session said even win-ery operators aren’t thrilled about the proposal to enlarge retail space and allow sales of wine or beer not made on site. He said “not one” participant there liked the idea of increasing industrial activity such as food processing or retailing. And he agreed with Popham that the ALC is doing a good job with subdivision appli-cations.

Popham also clarified the situ-ation with the leased craft gin distillery on her own Vancouver Island farm. It started as a win-

ery, and the conversion needed only local government approval because the production facility was already considered and taxed as light industrial.

Victoria Gin has been a model for the government’s push to al-low distilleries, breweries or mea-deries on farmland. Given the B.C. Liberals’ love of liberalized liquor, I expect that change to go through.

Mine inspector addresses Likely residents

B.C. inspector of mines updated the public Tuesday about the efforts to remedi-ate the Aug. 4 Mount Polley Mine tailings breach.

Speaking to a crowd-ed Likely Community Hall, Al Hoffman said crews have started building a dike up-stream of the breach and have completed about 64 per cent of its construction, which is anticipated to be com-pleted by the middle of September.

The dike is a large rock structure and the objective is to prevent any more tailings from flowing out of the breach.

A satellite dam is also being constructed adjacent to the dike,

which Imperials Met-als vice president of corporate affairs Steve Robertson said is ac-tually a ramp going down into the tailings impoundment.

“We want to go down and dig a sump (pump) down there and intersect that wa-ter and get it pumped back into the mine so it’s contained and doesn’t get released into the environment.”

After the tailings breach a plug formed in front of Polley Lake causing the lake level to rise by 1.7 metres.

Water is being pumped out, bringing the level down about one centimetre a day. Several residents sug-ested the lake should be left alone, however, Robertson said there’s concern because of the heavy rains that the re-

gion has been receiv-ing.

“We were pump-ing at 11,000 gallons a minute and didn’t gain anything because of the rain that came through yesterday,” Robertson said Thurs-day.

And because crews are working down stream in Hazeltine Creek, there would be a human health haz-ard if there was a sud-den flow of water and debris.

“We have had no life lost through this and we don’t want to lose anybody,” Stevenson added.

The investigation into the tailings pond breach only got under-

way this week, Hoff-man told the crowd.

“We started the pro-cess in earnest in the last few days.”

Construction of the tailings storage facility first began more than 20 years ago so staff is looking at old docu-ments, interviewing a number of people on the mine site and ex-ternally from the mine site, he explained.

The last geo-techni-cial inspection of the mine was done in Sep-tember 2013 and no concerns were noted at the time, Hoffman said.

In the meantime, Hoffman has ordered that all tailings dams be inspected by an in-

dependent third party and must be complet-ed by December to try to ensure there are no other dam failures.

While WorkSafeBC looks after other in-dustries, the ministry is responsible for mine health and safety, he added.

The ministry is also responsible for per-mitting mine sites and part of that respon-sibility includes the review of tailing dam designs and opera-tions.

“We will be looking into any contraven-tions of the Mines Act or what’s called the health and safety reclamation code for mines,” he said.

Biologist explains problem with mine tailings

It has been three weeks since the Mount Polley Mine tailings pond spill and at least one fisheries biologist working in the region is concerned about the long-term impact of leaving the tailings sludge in Hazeltine Creek.

Paddy Smith ex-plains that when rock

containing heavy met-als and toxic chemicals gets ground up into talcum powder then dumped into the en-vironment, bad things happen.

Smith, who has worked in the Mount Polley area for 15 years, is worried about the long-term effect of bad chemicals getting cycled in the biosys-tems.

He says the toxicity

entering the environ-ment increases expo-nentially as the fine particles of poisons and heavy metals are brought face to face with the natural sys-tems.

It is the same pro-cess as with pesticides, he says. The toxins get more and more con-centrated as they go further up the food chain.

Contaminated mi-

crobes get ingested by insects that get eaten by fish which are con-sumed by eagles, os-prey, waterfowl and furbearers.

Smith insists that a proper cleanup of Ha-zeltine Creek is para-mount.

“There’s millions of tons of stuff on either side of Hazeltine that could be trucked back into the tailings facil-ity. There’s 12 years of

mining sludge avail-able to the biology now because it’s ground up so fine.”

He said there is only a narrow window of opportunity to remove the debris along Hazel-tine Creek before the snow and rains come, and the cleanup has to be done right.

“You still can’t eat the fish in Jack of Clubs Lake in Wells because of the build up of heavy metals like mercury from the mine tailings residue,” Smith said.

He said one reason for inaction in clean-ing up Hazeltine Creek is fear of a second breach down Hazel-tine Creek from Polley Lake which is a me-tre-and-a-half higher than normal after the tailings dam breach plugged the outflow and poured millons of litres of effluent into the lake.

This is a real con-cern.

Water is being pumped out of the lake slowly but not as quickly as Smith fig-ures it could be.

“They could bring power in from the mine and use bigger pumps to take Polley Lake

down faster.”Moorhead Lake

resident Jim Gibson agrees with Smith that the effort to lower Pol-ley Lake so that Ha-zeltine Creek can be cleaned up is taking too long.

“At the rate they are going it will be No-vember by the time they can get in there,”

Gibson says. “And you know what happens in November? ... Snow.”

Some people living in the Likely area are also suggesting that because the spill has been declared a disas-ter, the Canadian army should be brought in to help clean up the tailings sludge in Ha-zeltine Creek.

Sage Birchwater photoFisheries biologist Paddy Smith has been working in the Mount Polley Mine region for 15 years.

Fairness Express bus visitsThe big green Fair-

ness Express bus was scheduled to stop in Williams Lake Thurs-day next to Boitanio Park.

The Fairness Ex-press tour Aug. 15 to Sept. 21 is a grassroots campaign spearhead-ed by the National Union of Public and General Employees in

association with the BC Government and Service Employees’ Union and the Health Sciences Association of B.C.

The aim of the campaign is to fos-ter local discussions about growing in-come inequality and related issues in B.C. and Canada.

Organizers encour-age the public and media to visit the bus and join the discus-sion about tax fair-ness, good jobs, public services and labour rights.

To learn more about the Fairness Ex-press campaign please visit: www.fairnessex-press.ca.

While attempts to mitigate the Mount Polley tailings breach continue to unfold, Likely resi-dents have been told Imperial Metals will provide water filters and installation free of charge for people who get their water from Quesnel Lake.

“There is quite a bit of concern in the community about to-tal suspended solids in the water,” said Steve Robertson, company vice-pres-ident of corporate affairs.

On Tuesday eve-ning during a public meeting hosted by government officials at the Likely com-munity hall many

people asked for the filters.

They said with winter only a few short months away it would not be practi-cal to continue with the short-term mea-sure now in place, which is to collect bottled water at the Spanish Mountain Gold camp located six kilometres away from the town site.

One resident said drilling companies are solidly booked into the spring, meaning new wells cannot be drilled any time soon.

Robertson said people will be able to sign up for the fil-ters and installation on the Mount Polley Mine website later today (Thursday, Aug. 29).

The Tour de Cariboo is 76 kilometers of the most beautiful scenery the Cariboo has on display. Picture yourself pedaling down the winding country road, past rolling hills, trees bursting in autumn colors. You’ve now stopped at one of the many rest stops along the route to hydrate and enjoy a snack. The friendly attendants offer words of encouragement to motivate you on the next leg of your journey. Flat tire, bike needs repair? No worries, the knowledgeable

support drivers are there to help you get back on the road. You are now winding through the last curve with Gavin Lake in your sights. The wind’s at your back, driving you toward the finish line. You’ve made it! What an accomplishment! Now it’s time to celebrate your achievement. You grab a refreshing drink and sit in the sunshine. Listen to the live music and share your tour adventures with other satisfied riders. Having gained back enough strength you head for the warm showers and then off to get a well-deserved massage…or wait…maybe a swim in the lake and a sauna on the beach? Whatever your mode of relaxation, it’s there waiting for you by the lake.You’ve expended tons of energy; you feel the urge to refuel. It’s time to join the others in the mess hall for a virtual feast catered by long-time volunteer Adele

McLearn. Whether you’re a carnivore or prefer veggie delights, Adele’s prepared delectable choices for you to indulge in.Following the banquet you wonder to yourself, ‘am I taking the shuttle back to town, or am I going to enjoy the festivities on the beach, and stay over in one of the comfy cabins?’ Whatever your choice, it’s all included in the tour experience.If the distance seems a bit daunting, find some friends to join you in a relay. There are no rules, you can have as many riders on your team as you’d like. You also have the opportunity to win some great prizes such as bike park lift tickets at Sunpeaks, rafting with Fraser River Rafting, overnight accommodation at the Heffley Boutique Inn at Sunpeaks. You have a chance at a Round Trip for Two with Pacific Coastal and a

The views expressed in this column are not necessarily the views of all the churches in the ministerial association.

“Time does not heal all wounds” You’ve suffered hurts and wounds

in your life, and you hope that, given enough time, the pain will go away. You’ve heard the old saying, “Time heals all wounds.” But does it? I wish it were so. The truth, however,

is that “Time heals all wounds” is only halfway true. It may have some validity in best-case scenarios, but not when it really counts. Here’s what I mean: Let’s say a

stranger is rude to you, and after a few days (or less) you forget all about it. Or, someone is late to a meeting with you and you say, “No biggie” and move on. Time heals small wounds. Let’s take it up a notch, though:

Someone you’ve known and trusted for years betrays that trust… A family member cuts you down and makes you feel like child again, even though you’re 20, 30, 40… An organization that you’ve given heart and soul for doesn’t come through for you when you need it most. “No biggie?” No way!Time alone does not heal wounds

as big as these. That’s because not all wounds are the same. The wounds that hurt the most and leave lasting scars are the ones that come from the people we care most about, the ones we trust, the ones we depend on. If you’re one of the many walking wounded who know pain like this, you also know that it doesn’t just go away with time. In the physical world, scratches and

small cuts go away with time. God has designed the human body with an amazing capacity for self-repair. But not all wounds are the same.

Try applying the “Time heals” idea to

something like a raging infection, a compound fracture, or cancer. Leaving those things alone and letting time do its thing could be devastating. The same is true in our emotional lives. Time alone doesn’t always heal. Sometimes it just gives the problem time to fester, burrow deeper, or spread. I have spoken with many people

who are walking with a limp from old emotional wounds they have suffered. Some of those wounds are years, even decades old, but the pain is as real as yesterday when they remember that pain-� lled day, or hear the name of the one who hurt them. When the old wound gets poked, they still � inch. The wound has not healed. Where does real healing come from

when the hurt simply doesn’t heal with time? Forgiveness. You may sputter in protest, “Am I just

supposed to say everything’s OK??” Not at all. Let’s clear up some things about forgiveness so that you can enjoy the healing it brings. Here are Five Things About

Forgiveness that will set you free, borrowed from Lewis Smedes.1. Forgiving is the only way to be fair

to yourself after someone hurts you. When you refuse to forgive, you are giving the person who hurt you once the chance to hurt you all over again—in your memory. The � rst person to bene� t from forgiving is the forgiver.2. Forgivers are not doormats; they do

not have to tolerate the bad things that they forgive. Jesus forgave sins, but then said, “Stop sinning.” 3. Forgivers are not fools; they forgive,

but they do not have to go back for more abuse. Forgiveness opens the door to restored relationship; true reconciliation can take place only when the offender is also willing to take steps to make things right.4. You don’t have to wait until they’re

sorry. You may wait forever! Why put your future happiness in the hands of the person who made you unhappy in the � rst place? You can forgive today.5. Forgiving is a journey. God can

forgive instantly, but for us it takes time, so be patient and don’t get discouraged if you have to do it more than once.What is forgiveness? It is a decision,

not a feeling. The feeling, and the forgetting, come with time. Forgiveness is choosing to let go of the right to get even, and letting God handle justice on your behalf. Forgive and be free.

PARSONS PENBY Chris harder

Chris Harder is the Lead Pastor at Williams Lake Alliance Church

Speculation abounds on municipal election candidates There are two-and-a-

half months before the municipalities, regional districts and school boards in British Co-lumbia go to election.

Here in Williams Lake we could have as many as three candi-dates running for the mayor’s job and I hear so many names pop-ping up for those wish-ing to run as a council-lor.

In the top job in Wil-liams Lake, Mayor Ker-ry Cook will run for the position once again and

her opposition will be current 21-year council-lor Surinderpal Rathor.

There is also the per-sistent gossip that for-mer councillor, mayor and MLA Walt Cobb will once again throw

his hat in the ring.Cobb and Rathor —

either one could give current Mayor Kerry Cook a good run if there were only two hats thrown into the mayor-alty ring.

In the last election, Walt Cobb and Scott Nelson split the vote al-lowing Cook to come up the middle and pick up a win.

There are many sto-ries floating around the community on who will run for councillor posi-tions this term.

Here’s some of the names that have been passed on to me in po-litical conversations.

Scott Nelson, Jason Ryll, Craig Smith, Pe-ter Bowman, Bobbi Jo Macnair, Wayne Lucier and some of those al-ready on council, like Ivan Bonnell, Laurie Walters and Sue Zacha-rias. Danica Hughes and Surinder Rathor will not be running.

What will be the is-sues that will drive this election?

Would it be the econ-

omy of the community, including our debt?

It may be taxes. Ours have increased consid-erably.

Perhaps it may be the overall management of city affairs.

Did the city manage the Don DeGagne hir-ing and firing episode last year in a proper manner, or is this one going to cost the tax-payers a bundle of dol-lars?

The city has had three administrators in the last term of council.

Maybe crime and fire protection will also be topics of discussion during this election.

There are some folks in our town that want to throw out the coun-cil completely along with the mayor. They apparently will be mak-ing some noise coming closer to election time.

There does not ap-pear to be a lot of discussion regarding school board and re-gional district elections at this point, although I have heard that Ted

Armstrong of Quesnel may be challenged.

I do know that Steve Forseth, alternate direc-tor of the CRD, will be running for a position this fall as the current director is stepping down.

Lots of rumours and many folks coming out of the woodwork for the 2014 civic elections in Williams Lake and area. Stay Tuned.

Sandy McNie and Robbie Campbell delivered the prizes during the Horsefly Fall Fair last Saturday.

Horsefly celebrates fall and names citizens of the year

This year’s 39th an-nual Horsefly Fall Fair was well repre-sented with competi-tors and a vast array of absolutely fantastic produce, art, floral ar-rangements, canning and baking entrees, photography, and live-stock, but down con-

siderably in attendance from the community.

Terry McLellan won the high aggregate award while Sharon Godfrey was the run-ner up, with many rib-bons going to other entrants.

The Horsefly Citizen of the Year award was a tie, with husband and wife team of Lou and Jack Bigg being rec-

ognized for their work as volunteers with the Horsefly Fire Depart-ment’s First Response team and many other helping hand activities in our community.

Nora Mark was rec-ognized for her contri-bution to the Horsefly Seniors Activity and Wellness Society.

The honorees re-ceived plaques from

the Horsefly Commu-nity Hall presented by John Hollan.

In other news the Horsefly community is getting ready for two salmon celebrations.We were very pleased to receive a poster an-nouncing that First Nations people are hosting a traditional powwow to honour the return of the sockeye on Sept. 6 and 7.

Horsefly is also pre-paring for its annual Rivers Day Salmon Festival on Sept. 27 and 28. Plans are well in hand for an excellent weekend.

The Department of Fisheries and Oceans is estimating the Horsefly run to be ap-proximately 600,000 sockeye, so this may well be the best run in a while, so bring the kids and come and en-joy nature’s bounty.

international Literacy Day coming up

Sept. 8 is Interna-tional Literacy Day. The United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organi-zations goal is to re-mind everyone of the importance of literacy and adult learning globally. Cariboo-Chilcotin Partners for Literacy asks every-one to celebrate this day with your family and friends by learn-ing something new together. Remember that learning happens all the time.

You may ask why and how does this concern me? In to-day’s world our com-munity is now linked in so many ways to the larger global commu-nity. We need to keep our literacy skills high and continue to learn so that we understand how the world around us affects our daily lives. With the politi-cal unrest in the Mid-dle East, what will hap-pen with oil and gas

prices. How will that affect our Canadian dollar? How will this affect our jobs? With strong literacy skills we will be better prepared for world events that may seem so far away from us but definitely have strong impacts on our lives.

In a more practical sense in our daily lives with higher literacy skills we make better choices. We are able to understand our mon-

ey, make healthy life-style choices, eat better and have more joy in our lives. With higher literacy skills you will have greater success in finding work that you enjoy. You will be bet-ter prepared to handle change, stress and all the things that hap-pen in our lives. Every day there is an oppor-tunity to learn some-thing new. We need to think of literacy and learning as moving tar-

gets, making an effort to continue to learn throughout our lives. Try a new recipe, read a book, pick up the local Williams Lake Tribune newspaper, read with your children, start a book club. By learn-ing with your children you will create a closer bond with them. With continued learning we become better parents, employers, employ-ees, friends and have a much fuller richer life.

So this September 8 on International Literacy Day celebrate with your friends and fam-ily by learning some-thing new together.

Cariboo-Chilcotin Partners for Literacy offers free programs and services to help people in the South Cariboo reach their learning goals. Check out www.caribooliter-acy.com or call Mel at 250-945-4199 for more information.

Brittany Gathering double celebration

The 22nd annual Brittany Gathering at Henry’s Crossing brought people to-gether from near and far to celebrate the return of the salmon and the recent Su-preme Court decision that declared aborigi-nal title to a vast tract of land in the Chilco-tin.

Union of BC Indian Chiefs Grand Chief Stewart Phillip ad-dressed the gathering held Aug. 19 to 21.

A Nuxalk youth dance troop from Bel-la Coola performed mask dances to hon-our the occasion. La-hal games, a horse-shoe tournament, moccasin races, a tal-ent night, and fish-ing in the river were enjoyed by young and old.

Many concerns were expressed about the recent Mount Pol-ley Mine breach and how it is impacting the Fraser River sys-tem.

Former Xeni Gwet’in chief and now band council-lor Marilyn Baptiste stated that every time a fish is caught and shared with the fami-lies, it helps the earth to heal.

“A year ago the mining industry told us a breach like this would never occur. But it did,” Baptiste said.

Xeni Gwet’in coun-cillor, Loretta Wil-liams said she is try-ing to get informed about the effects of the Mount Polley spill on Chilcotin salmon.

“Some of our peo-ple have kept on fish-ing in spite of it, but I’ve chosen not to fish at all. Right now I’m very proud to be driv-ing on titled lands. I told my son, Preston, you can build your house anywhere you choose.”

?Esdilagh Chief Bernie Mack said it was a good day to cel-ebrate.

“We have to accept the fine balance and live in the moment.

The price to get our land was not cheap, but you can live and taste this moment to-day.”

He said a lot of oth-er countries around the globe are watch-ing the Tsilhqot’in de-cision.

“What you’ve done here impacts the world,” Mack said.

“We’re the meat of the sandwich. Gov-ernment and industry have to work with us, but what comes with the lands is the re-sponsibility to look after them.”

Speaking to the Tsilhqot’in youth, Mack said the com-munity needs biolo-gists, engineers and

regulators. “We need youth to

get an education.”Yunesit’in Chief

Russell Myers-Ross said he is wondering what the next step might be following the Supreme Court deci-sion.

Dressed in traditional Nuxalk regalia, the youth dance group from Bella Coola performed at the Brittany Gathering. The group is led by Rhonda Schooner Sandoval who presented gifts to the chiefs.

Leaders stress need for education

“We know the land is ours. Now we need to make decisions togeth-

er with the Crown.”Myers-Ross cau-

tioned that govern-ment will try to reduce the authority of First Nations.

“The stakes are high for both sides. This land is here for us and we need to make a transition plan. We want to do a better job of managing the land than the Crown has done. We have a better vision.”

Tsi Deldel Chief Per-cy Guichon said it was the knowledge of the elders that made the Supreme Court deci-sion possible.

“The chiefs before us wanted the same things 100 years ago that we want today. The court decision gives First Nations pride. For the first time ever we’re going to the table with government as equals. Things are going to be done dif-ferently now. We want to coexist and benefit from each other.”

Tl’esqox Chief Fran-cis Laceese encouraged the youth to learn the Tsilhqot’in ways.

“Use what you need from the river. The only way government and industry will know

who we are is if we move forward togeth-er.”

Grand Chief Stew-art Phillip comment-ed that many of the Tsilhqot’in drummers who took part in the ceremony to open the gathering were tod-dlers.

“I heard those same songs right across the country and in front of the Supreme Court of Canada. The Tsilhqot’in people are generously sharing these songs.”

Chief Stewart re-flected on the excite-ment at the moment when the Supreme Court decision was an-nounced.

“It was at 6 a.m. on June 27 in Vancouver. It was magical, elec-tric, amazing. I was shocked speechless. We all leaped out of our chairs so ecstatic and elated. So happy that the highest court in the land recognized our right to title. I thank the Tsilhqot’in on be-half of my 14 grand-

children. The path in front of us is clear.”

Chief Stewart re-flected that a rising tide carries all boats.

“Everyone will pros-per and benefit,” Chief Stewart predicted. “It’s going to take a lot of hard work. Govern-ment and business will have to be convinced to obey the rule of law.”

Xeni Gwet’in Chief Roger William noted that 26 elders testified in court for the land title case.

“Nine are not with us now,” William add-ed.

During the opening ceremony, Chief Wil-liam explained the sig-nificance of the songs.

“The Salmon Boy song teaches about the four-year cycle of the salmon,” Chief Wil-liam said.

“The loon song tells about the deal the loon made with the hunter/warrior to get his sight back. The Supreme Court case is like us getting our sight back.”

This year the new agricultural program being developed for Thompson Rivers University in Wil-liams Lake will be the benefactor of funds raised at the annual Cariboo Cattlemen’s Association Beef Benefit Bonanza in May.

Normally the funds raised are ear-marked for a registered soci-ety, but this year the directors decided the funds would be best spent supporting the new agricultural pro-gram currently being planned and devel-oped at TRU.

A locally available agricultural program would lessen post-secondary education costs for local youth and adults wishing to further, or upgrade their education in the field of agriculture by allowing them to re-main near home.

Such an advantage would be very wel-come in our rural community.

The proposed mod-el features courses

taught over shorter time blocks, such as six week blocks in-stead of the normal semesters of four months.

This would open up accessibility to more mature local produc-ers for more learning opportunities.

Everyone was smil-

ing as several mem-bers of the cattlemen’s association public af-fairs and education committee met some of the major sponsors

of the annual dinner and turned over the $2,500 raised to the TRU representative Dr. Ray Sanders.

The support shown by the community for the seventh annual Cariboo Cattlemen’s

Beef Bonanza held at The Point Restaurant banquet room May 6 was tremendous as many local busi-nesses contributed door prizes, cut flow-ers and more for the event.

Cariboo Archers selected to Team Canada for 2015 world championshipsIt’s official. An unprec-

edented four Cariboo Ar-chers have been selected

to Team Canada for the 2015 3D Archery World Championships.

Fred Streleoff, Dan Mobbs, Jessie Mobbs and Al Campsall will

represent Canada at the event after all shooting well earlier this month at the Canadian Archery Championships in Lac La Biche, Alta.

Streleoff finished fifth overall at the 2013 world championships in Italy,

while Campsall shot to a 31st-place finish in 2011 and a 30th-place finish in 2013 in Austria and Italy, respectively.

For Dan and Jessie, this will be their first time competing at a world championship.

“Having four members from our club on Team Canada is pretty excit-ing,” Campsall said. “All four of us are incredibly dedicated and I am so proud to be associated with the three of them.” Canada is allowed to

select 27 competitors from around the coun-try to compete in vari-ous archery categories — longbow, compound, instinctive and barebow — based on their scores from Archery Canada-sanctioned events.

Bears bounce Fireballs in ‘B’ final

“It was a pretty steady [game],” said Linda Bar-bondy, Williams Lake Slo-Pitch League presi-dent and captain of the Rowdies. Tied 0-0 in the third inning, the Row-dies exploded for a four-run inning, followed by another five-run inning. Down 11-0 in the sixth

inning the Rookies, how-ever, proved they weren’t about to lay down.

“They had a couple good hits and one over the fence,” Barbondy said, adding the Rookies scored seven runs in the sixth inning.

The Rowdies beat the Rookies earlier in the tournament, sending them to the bottom half

of the draw, where the Rookies upset the Lakers to advance to the final.

In the ‘B’ division it was the Bears knocking off the Fireballs to claim the title, while the ‘C’ division saw the Beer-O-Crats down the NDNZ, 14-8, to win. The ‘D’ di-vision title went to Those Guys, who defeated the Maintainers.

“Those Guys came from the ‘B’ side,” Bar-bondy said. “They lost one [seeding] game and were down at the bottom and came up to win in the finals. They played four games on Sunday to the final in the double knock-out.”

Overall, the WLSPL season, which housed 30 teams this year — the largest the league has ever been — went well, Bar-bondy said. “The season was excellent considering all the new teams and the extra division,” she said. “The weather was fan-tastic [last weekend] so it was really good.”

The WLSPL is host-ing its year-end banquet on Sept. 20 at the Long-house. Tickets are $15 each and are available through Barbondy at [email protected] or from team captains.

Photo submitted150 Mile House’s Paul Rohner (centre), 16, was victorious in the under-20 men’s division at the Otway Challenge cross-country marathon bike race in Prince George last weekend after completing five laps of the 11-kilo-metre course in four hours and 21 min-utes.

Mountain biker wins Otway Challenge

A 150 Mile House mountain biker com-peted up an age divi-sion last weekend to win the Prince George Otway Challenge cross-country mara-thon bike race.

Paul Rohner, 16, won the under-20 solo men’s category at the event, completing five laps of the 11-kilome-tre race course in four hours and 21 minutes.

Paul edged out Prince George’s Cody Strickland, who fin-ished second, by one complete lap.

He travelled to Prince George with his dad, Erwin, the day prior to the race to get a sneak peak at the course.

“It was not all 100 per cent flagged by the time [we got there] and we rode anyway, so we took some guesses on some intersections, but we managed to guess

correctly for about five kilometres,” Paul said.

“We met the race organizer who was working on putting up tape and he sent us in the right direction and we finished our pre run.”

Paul said on race day around 60 riders lined up at the starting line for a 10 a.m. start.

“It was a good vibe going on … after the first lap, which took me about 48 minutes to complete, things

started to settle in,” he said. “I used a 29-inch borrowed hard tail bike which was not that comfortable but fairly light to ride.”

That showed after four laps as Paul bat-tled through blisters on his hands, however, he held on for another lap of the course.

“It was my first cross country race and I was able to conserve my energy over the four-and-a-half-hour period,” Paul said.

“The race track was a fast rolling course with an elevation gain of about 330 metres per round and all sin-gle track.”

Paul’s next race will be the local Tour de Cariboo — a road race from Williams Lake to Gavin Lake — on Sat-urday, Sept. 6.

Williams Lake and Quesnel to go head-to-head

Voting open in Canada Winter Games contestEight communities

from the 2015 Canada Winter Games Regional

Community Torch Cel-ebration competition are going head-to-head in an online vote to determine which communities will host the 2015 Games Regional Torch Celebra-tions, as part of the 2015 Games Torch Relay.

One community in each region of northern B.C. has the opportunity to host a Canada Winter Games regional torch celebration — in what will be the largest 2015 Games celebration out-side of Prince George — leading up to the 2015 Games.

Voting is open at www.canadagames2015.ca and ends on Sept. 12, 2014, at 11:59 p.m.

“The quality of sub-missions we received from communities across the region were remarkable,” 2015 Can-ada Winter Games CEO Stuart Ballantyne said.

“Now, it’s up to British Columbians to help de-cide what communities

will host 2015 Canada Winter Games Regional Community Torch Cel-ebrations.”

The finalists in each region are:

Northwest — Terrace and New Hazelton

Northeast — Fort St. John, Chetwynd, Daw-son Creek and Pouce Coupe

Central Interior — Williams Lake and Quesnel.

The City of Williams Lake has submitted an Expression of Interest to host a celebration, which

would celebrate all of the unique aspects of the area through song, dance and word and would recog-nize the importance that culture and sport play in the area. The event would feature local cul-tural groups, performers, and musicians, as well as a free family swim and skate before or after the celebration event. The city has committed $5,000 to the event.

Visit www.can-adagames2015.ca to learn more about the communities and to vote for a deserving commu-nity in one or all three regions.

The three successful communities will be an-nounced Sept. 24, 2014, at the Union of British Columbia Municipalities Convention.

On Oct. 15, 2014 a na-tional ceremony will be held to light the Canada Games Torch from the Centennial Flame on Parliament Hill in Otta-

wa. The Canada Winter Games Flame will then travel across the country to kick off the B.C. leg of the relay in Victoria on Oct. 17, passing through two previous Canada Games Host communi-ties on its way to illumi-nate the north.

On Nov. 4, 2014, 100 days will be left on the countdown clock to the 2015 Canada Winter Games.

The northern B.C. route of the torch re-lay will start in Prince George at the newly ren-ovated Canada Games Plaza and begin to travel throughout northern B.C.

The 2015 Canada Winter Games will be the largest multi-sport cultural event to ever be held in Prince George and northern B.C.

Athletes from 10 prov-inces and three territories will compete in 19 sports with the dream of be-coming Canada’s next champions.

Lakecity soccer players second in PentictonFour Williams Lake

soccer players suited up for Cariboo United in Penticton Aug. 16-17 fir-ing off some impressive results.

Dylan Taylor, Bobby Rankin, Patrick Kniec and Justin Hansen, aged 15-17, joined players from Quesnel to compete in the 18-year-old divi-

sion at the tournament — all doing very well, said lakecity soccer coach Brian Hansen.

“Despite being the smallest team size-wise

in the tournament, the team outplayed almost all the teams losing only one game and ending the tournament in second place,” he said.

As the summer comes to a close, we enter into my favou-rite season of all, fall!

Our little village of Horsefly is just a bus-tling at this time of year.

We had our Fall Fair over the past weekend and it was a wonder-ful event as always, lots of animals, can-ning and veggies on display.

We also had our Market that day in the Mini Mall and we had lots of people come from all over to buy our goodies.

This month in Horsefly is The Salmon Festival on the 27th and 28th of September.

The DFO has infor-mation kiosks, there will be a kids fishy Arts and Crafts.

Take a walk on the Salmon Habitat Trail, and join in the Salmon Festival Coffee House Concert at the community hall on Saturday evening.

Crystal at the Anvil Pub has 2 poker nights this month, one on the 6th the other on the 20th.

Crib starts again in September on Wednesdays.

Open Mic Night on September 6th.

She also has a Las Vegas Vacation Draw on Thursdays, with 6 prizes to be given away, the first draw is on September 4th with 5 more draws on the first Thursday of each month! (don’t miss out, enter to win!!!)

The last time we chatted I mentioned some new stuff hap-pening in Horsefly, one is that the Horsefly Hardware store has sold to Katherine Rempel.

Katherine was born and raised in Burnaby and lived a short time in Kelowna.

Katherine and her mother Donnette moved to Horsefly in 1996 and purchased a

small farm. Kat has been in

Horsefly for about 20 years. She went to school out here and did correspondence as well. She worked at Clarkes General Store for several years.

Kat has her level 3 first aid and is an emergency medical responder (EMR), she also has a finan-cial accounting diplo-ma.

Kat worked for Goldfields in Horsefly for about 6 years as a logistics coordinator.

Kats first home was on the Horsefly Landing Road just around the corner from my place, that’s how I first met her.

She was always busy building and renovat-ing her house. I have to say this lady knows what she is doing when it comes to fix-ing a place up!

Kat left Horsefly for a couple of years to check out the rest of the world but returned!

Kat now has a wonderful little boy named Eli, who is 3 years old, and a ball of energy!

Her partner Darren is a Kayak/Hunting Guide and a building contractor, enjoying working on houses in Horsefly.

These two make a great couple, able to fix up the Hardware Store, and they have done lots so far!

Katherine always wanted a small busi-

ness of her own so when the opportunity came along to buy the Hardware Store she jumped right in with both feet and is doing an amazing job!

Katherine welcomes the opportunity to grow her business, so if there is anything you are looking for, she will do her very best to get it in for you (just ask!)

This Fall Kat is planning on starting a Copy, Fax, Print and Laminating area in the store, as well as an Espresso, coffee, and Latte machine (yum, I am looking forward to that).

I wish Katherine all the best with her new business adventure.

Stop in and say hello to the new owner of Horsefly Hardware 2014 Katherine Rempel!

And the second exciting news in Horsefly is a new Yoga Studio, Tyengar Yoga owner Dianne Noort [email protected] or call 250-620-0565. There is space available in September so give her a call.

Horsefly Service has been sold, so hope-fully I can get some more exciting infor-mation on that next month.

So until then,

Cheers Dianna

In collaboration with Success by 6 and Children First, the Early Childhood Development Network (ECDN) is hoping to raise awareness of the importance of developmental screening of preschoolers. A rack card has been produced that encourages parents of 3 year olds to seek out a simple questionnaire they can complete on their own or with assistance. Depending on where they go for the screening tool, they will receive either the Ages & Stages questionnaire or the Nipissing questionnaire. You can get a simple questionnaire from your early learning and care provider including: StrongStart, Public Health, Child Development Centre (CDC), Pregnancy Outreach Program, Child Care Resource & Referral (CCRR), Ministry of Children and Family Development (MCFD), Preschools, Denisiqi & Cariboo Friendship Society.

LABOUR DAY 2014

For many British Columbians, Labour Day may simply mean the last extended weekend of the summer. It is important to remember it is a day to celebrate working

people and the contribution they make to our province and the quality of life we enjoy.

The rights that work-ers have today such as a 40-hour work week, minimum wage, pa-rental leave and paid holidays were hard

fought for in times when labourers had few bene� ts, no voice and worked in peril-ous conditions. Many of the protections and

rights that today’s em-ployees have exist be-cause of unions.

Labour Day is cel-ebrated on the � rst Monday of every Sep-

tember and this year on September 2 it will be in a show of solidar-ity for working people across the country and beyond. The origins of this national holiday are rooted in the his-tory of the Canadian labour movement that began in the time of Prime Minister Sir John A. Macdonald. From a bold stand by a group of Ontario printers in May of 1872 grew the most important legislature to impact workers in the following century.

Union pioneers pe-titioned their employ-ers for a reduction in the number of hours worked

- asking that their workweek be reduced to six, 9-hour days. They formed an orga-nization dubbed the Nine Hours Move-ment and argued that reducing working

hours would bene� t both workers and soci-ety as more time would be spent with family and community.

Employers scoffed

at their claims and re-jected their demands. At the time it was a crime to be member of a union in Canada yet in a courageous act of de� ance, the Toronto Typographical Union went on strike to se-cure the nine-hour workday.

A parade was held which drew some 10,000 spectators. The workers went on strike. Many lost their job and were forced to relocate. Their em-ployers brought in replacement workers and used this so called ‘conspiracy’ to have 24 members of the move-ment arrested and jailed.

On June 14, 1872 Macdonald passed the Trade Union Act that legalized union activ-ity, freed the workers and endeared him to the working class.

The Toronto print-ers strike paved the way for unions across North America to de-mand a 54-hour work-week.

Canadian trade unionists have ever since, celebrated this day that has been set aside to honor ‘those

who labour.’The � rst Labour

Day parade was held in Winnipeg in 1894, and was two miles long.

Today approximate-ly 30 percent of BC’s workforce is covered by a collective agree-ment.

As Labour Day has evolved it remains a day of celebration, solidarity, speeches and recreation.

The issues facing workers have also evolved. Today’s la-bour unions negotiate on behalf of a chang-ing workforce in an ev-er-evolving workplace. British Columbians have different chal-lenges to deal with, whether it is record-high housing prices, increasing levels of debt and living longer.

Minimum wage, overtime, working conditions for farm workers, health and safety and access to af-fordable day care are all important labour issues.

This Labour Day, take a moment to re-� ect on the history and signi� cance of the day.

LABOUR DAY 2014 MONDAY SEPT 1

This Labour Day, let’s re� ect on our accomplishments - and work even harderMark HancockPresident, CUPE BC

This Labour Day, let’s re� ect on our ac-complishments—and work even harder

Let’s face it, for most people in our society, the real meaning of Labour Day has faded over the years. It’s now less about acknowledg-ing the role workers have played in building our society, and more about the last long weekend of summer.

As union members and leaders, we have an obligation to the gen-erations that came be-fore us—and to future generations—to work harder to teach people the real meaning of La-bour Day.

It’s about remember-ing the sacri� ces made by the generations that preceded us, and the gains they were able to make that bene� t every

worker today, wheth-er unionized or not. Things so many of us take for granted, like the 8-hour day, or the 40-hour week. Week-ends! Pensions, medi-care, and other impor-tant bene� ts all came about at least in part because of the labour movement.

Labour Day is also about recognizing our sisters and brothers around the world who are taking on many of the issues our prede-cessors faced here, but with even fewer protec-tions or legal rights. In countries like Mexico, for example, labour ac-tivists not only face po-tential criminal charges for advocating for workers’ rights but they actually face death. While we have much work to do here in BC and Canada, we must also recognize how much progress we have

made and share the lessons we’ve learned with working people all around the world.

But Labour Day can’t just be about the past, nor can we allow our-selves to be lulled into complacency about our standard of living com-pared to other coun-tries. While the labour movement and working people have achieved great things here, there are far too many people who have to work not just one or two jobs, but sometimes three or four just to make ends meet.

There are too many families who can’t af-ford childcare, yet need quality care for their children so they can take that hard-to-� nd fulltime job. Increas-ingly BC’s economy is coming to depend on temporary foreign workers who are paid less, receive fewer ben-

e� ts and have fewer rights than Canadians. And still, despite some incremental progress, women are still paid less than men for the same work in far too many cases.

And now we see the Harper Conservatives and Christy Clark’s BC Liberals attacking unions and workers’ rights in very much the same fashion as right-wing Republican governments in many American states. CUPE BC’s 85,000 members, and the 625,000 mem-bers of CUPE National across the country, are joining with the Cana-dian Labour Congress to push back against this regressive agen-da—not just to protect what generations before us fought and in some cases died for—but to continue to � ght for fair wages, good bene-� ts and a solid pension

for our members, and all Canadian workers.

So, while Labour Day is a celebration, it’s also

a time to ready our-selves for the struggles ahead.

-Mark Hancock is

President of CUPE BC, representing 85,000 workers in communities across BC.

It is with great sadness that the family of Reita Georgette Baron announces her passing on August 17, 2014. Reita’s family and close friend Lester were by her side when she succumbed to a long and courageous battle with pancreatic cancer.

Born on September 8, 1952 in Kamloops BC to Al and Margaret Hinsche, Reita spent a happy childhood with her four

siblings on a ranch on Watch Lake Road near Lone Butte BC. She attended elementary school in Lone Butte and high school in 100 Mile House, BC. In April 1974 Reita married Frank Baron and moved to Likely which she quickly adopted as her new home and enjoyed being an integral part of the community. During Reita’s life she touched the hearts of many friends and associates who will miss her greatly. She worked as secretary/librarian for the Likely School until she moved to Williams Lake in 2006 so Shauna could enroll in high school there. She had an excellent reputation as a bookkeeper and worked for several companies in the Likely and Williams Lake areas. Her hobbies were many and she loved to spend time with nieces, Brityn and Taryn, sharing with them the many crafts she enjoyed.

Reita is predeceased by her parents Al and Margaret Hinsche. She is survived by her daughter Shauna Speed, who was the love of her life, and her loving partner of twenty-five years, Norman Speed. Reita will be dearly missed by her sisters Pat Coukell of New Hazelton, BC, and Judy (Mark) Brekke of Kelowna, BC, brothers Lorne (Liz) Hinsche of Williams Lake, BC and George (Dianne) Hinsche of Sheridan Lake, BC. and sister-in-law Barb Jaager of Penticton, BC. Also to mourn her passing is her uncle, Walter (Joanne) Levick, aunt, Evelyn Townie and nieces and nephews Cliff Coukell, Gerald Coukell, Jennifer Walker, Jason Hinsche, Tasha MacDonald and their families and her special little rays of sunshine, nieces Brityn and Taryn Hinsche.

A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Magnuson for the compassionate care he gave Reita for many years and a very special thank you to the entire staff of Deni House. All of you are amazing and our family will always remember the special time we shared with Reita there.

In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the Williams Lake Hospice Society, 517-6th Avenue North, Williams Lake, BC V2G 2G8 or the charity of your choice.

A celebration of life will be held in Reita’s honour at 1:00 PM on September 20, 2014 at the Likely Community Hall, 6281 Rosette Lake Road, Likely, BC.
