Liam McDonough was just one of about 1,000 Oak Bay High and Monterey middle school students who gathered Wednesday to hear Rick Hansen’s inspirational story of making a difference by finding strength through adversity. But then the Grade 12 student was stunned when he was called from the crowd to receive a Difference Maker medal from Hansen, a moment that earned the 18-yearold a standing ovation. “I was dumbfounded,” McDonough said of the surprise. The teen is a model in giving back: he is on student council, is an honours student, has built houses in developing countries, helped spearhead school fundraising efforts last year for Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock and coaches, among other achievements. This summer, after graduation, he plans to build houses in the Dominican Republic. He will begin his commerce studies at the University of Victoria this fall, with a goal of working for a non-governmental organization. Though his schedule is currently “jam-packed,” McDonough said he enjoys giving back. “It’s definitely beneficial for the people that I help.” Hansen’s morning stop in Oak Bay and his visits to Victoria and CFB Esquimalt on Tuesday coincide with the 25th anniversary of his Man In Motion World Tour. A medal relay, which began in Newfoundland and Labrador last August, is passing through 600 communities across Canada. The tour ends in Vancouver on May 22. Hansen didn’t come to Greater Victoria on his original tour, but he has been visiting provincial capitals and military bases to present Difference Maker medals to individuals who have helped make the world more accessible and inclusive.

LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION Former Oak Bay resident Trevor Undi is drumming up funds for a feature length film Vivian Moreau News staff
A
s a kid Trevor Undi used to watch videos with his mom at his grandmother’s house. They worked their way through all of Hitchcock’s films and as many British mysteries as they could find. But it was one film in particular that shaped Undi’s future, To Kill a Mockingbird. “It was before I had ever read the book,” Undi said in a call from New York, “but it was definitely at this time where I really felt the weight of what cinema could be and the power of that medium of art.” He was impressed with how the 1962 film – based on author Harper Lee’s 1960 novel about a young girl’s observations about racial inequality in smalltown America – taught about integrity. “It’s very himUndi, now 32, left Trevor: highly Oak Bay High in Grade without graduating creative, and 12 and went to Vancouunique.” ver to learn the movie business first hand, - Todd Allen not by going to film school but by working in the industry. Starting as a production assistant, he worked his way up to associate producer, most recently on Henry’s Crime, starring Keanu Reeves. He now lives in New York and is drumming up funding for his first feature length film. It’s an ambitious project that will use original music from a variety of artists to craft the world’s first visual mixtape. The Kymer Project will be “a collection of original narrative-based music, video segments … woven together into an anthology film,” promo material states. Told against the backdrop of New York City, each individual video will tell a story about a connection between people based on circumstances and chance. Music videos started out being narrative driven, but that has fallen by the wayside, he says. The Kymer Project will revive the narrative tradition and marry it with music. Undi has 11 producers onboard as well as a committed choreographer and cinematographer. Undi would like production to begin within a year, but needs funding to do so. He is looking for support from his hometown of Victoria to raise $80,000 for the project. “It’s giving some sort of pride of ownership to the community that I came from,” he said about what investors will get back from contributing to the project. Los Angeles-based comedian Todd Allen has known Undi since Grade 3 when they were both at Monterey elementary school. “He used to wear bright purple, green, and yellow cord pants,” Allen said of Undi, with a laugh. Allen would go to the movies with

The grand dame of Victoria’s flamenco scene, Veronica Maguire, will host a tapas and music night on Saturday, May 5. Maguire and her late husband Harry Owen opened Alma de España, the first flamenco dance school in Victoria and cultivated a vibrant community dedicated to the dramatic dance from southern Spain. Their son, Gareth, like his father is a wellrespected guitarist, blending contemporary takes with traditional Andalusian music. Beginning at 7 p.m and running to 10 p.m., the evening at Henderson Hall, 1632 Yale St., includes a music and dance performance by the students of Alma de España, as well as a cash bar, tapas and a silent auction. Guests are encouraged to dress in flamenco or gypsy attire. Proceeds from the evening go toward supporting scholarships and educational resources for flamenco on Vancouver Island. Hosted by the Flamenco de la Isla Society, tickets for the adults-only event are $25/$20 and available at Munro’s 1108 Government St. and Ivy’s Bookshop, 2188 Oak Bay Ave. For more information go to almadeespana. com or call 250-384-8832. editor@oakbaynews.com

‘New faces’ along Oak Bay Avenue attracting attention Erin McCracken News staff
Oak Bay police have stepped up bike patrols along the Avenue after noticing a recent increase in the number of homeless and people in need in the area. “I think it’s a concern if they start aggressive panhandling or they’re intoxicated down there,” said Chief Constable Mark Fisher. “Again, in those instances, we’ve arrested those people for being intoxicated when we find them down there.” Officers arrested one individual for public intoxication last week, and have responded to a number of complaints from residents over the past month. Still, in some cases, the complaints were unfounded. “I think it’s important for people to realize that if they are ... not aggressively panhandling and they’re not intoxicated or consuming liquor in public, then they’re not breaking any law by being

The tour’s team has a number of volunteering opportunities for all ages, including: road marshalls, course markers, swag bag crew, registration and feed zone teams and many others. Cycling experience is not required. A volunteer rally for helpers past and present is scheduled for Saturday, May 12, from 1 to 3 p.m., at Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre, featuring games, prizes and food. Ryder Hesjedal’s bicycle from the 2011 Tour de France will be also be unveiled at memorial centre on May 12, as part of the Greater Victoria Sports Hall of Fame’s new display.

there,” Fisher said. At least one Oak Bay resident has also noticed the “new faces” along the Avenue. In a letter to the editor recently written to Oak Bay News, Scott Piercy said that in all the years he has lived in the community, he has never been “hasselled for money by transients” – Chief Mark Fisher until now. Some of those new faces are returning empty refundable bottles and cans to a beer and wine store in the area, while others say they are enjoying Oak Bay hospitality. “Some of them have told us the people in Oak Bay are nicer to them,” Fisher said. emccracken@vicnews.com

OUR VIEW
Civil forfeiture muddies message A message needs to be sent that it is not OK to drive so dangerously that you create a very real risk to the lives of innocent people. And it’s morally indefensible to celebrate such an act of stupidity by posting a video of it to the Internet. But the punishment must fit the crime. We can all agree that the motorcyclist who on April 6 video-recorded himself or herself travelling at speeds of 300 km/h down a busy highway showed the judgement of a moron. However, no matter how emphatic that point needs to be made, confiscating the bike and selling it to raise revenue for the government is the wrong thing to do in this case. Unable to arrest the young man suspected of riding the bike in the video, the police have turned to the Civil Forfeiture Act to try and punish the perpetrator and, perhaps, turn the incident into a teachable moment. Don’t try this at home or we’ll take your wheels – a similar campaign has been waged against the dangers of street racing in recent years. The difference is that the public has not heard enough evidence to merit having the police take away the personal property of an Esquimalt mom (her son is believed to be the rider in the video). Police have every right to seize the bike in case it can be used to actually press charges. Dangerous driving is a serious offence punishable by jail time. If that can’t be proved unless the rider confesses, we understand why police would want to send a message that you can’t commit such a high-profile crime and get away scot-free. But rather than attempting civil forfeiture, which is more justly applied to the proceeds of criminal activity, the police could better serve their public by ensuring this rider, and other potential daredevils, learn about the very real consequences of very bad decisions. Driving at speeds shown in the video create a probability of massive injuries and possibly death to the rider, as well the dozens of innocent people sharing the road. That is the message that must be imparted. After all, the goal is to keep young drivers from taking exceptional risks not merely to keep them from posting to YouTube after they do. What do you think?

to put others before himself, by spearheading further fundraising efforts and channelling people’s energy for the greater good, much like he did during the original Man in Motion world tour. Hansen was in Greater Victoria this week, as part of his Rick Hansen Relay cross-Canada tour. While some of the folks who received his special Difference Maker awards in Victoria, Esquimalt and Oak Bay weren’t born at the time of the original Man in Motion, all were no doubt thrilled to be recognized by someone whose light shines in the same way Terry Fox’s did three decades ago. Hansen, never known to turn down an interview or an opportunity to give an autograph to someone who he thinks it might make a difference for, is the ultimate diplomat for what it means to be Canadian, and what it means to overcome a potentially devastating disability. He understands, at 54, that his role has changed from those days when his ripped upper body pounded through kilometre after kilometre. As a man who exudes grace and class as he extends his hands to help, he is definitely a good example of a true Canadian hero. Don Descoteau is the editor of the Victoria News. editor@vicnews.com

OPINION
The fundamental failure of environmentalism Environmentalism has failed. Over the past 50 years, environmentalists have succeeded in raising awareness, changing logging practices, stopping megadams and offshore drilling, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. But we were so focused on battling opponents and seeking public support that David we failed to realize these battles reflect fundamentally different ways of seeing our place in the world. And it is our deep underlying worldview that determines the way we treat our surroundings. We have not, as a species, come to grips with the explosive events that have changed our relationship with the planet. For most of human existence, we lived as nomadic huntergatherers whose impact on nature could be absorbed by the resilience of the biosphere. Even after the agricultural revolution 10,000 years ago, farming continued to dominate our lives.
We cared for nature. People who live close to the land understand that seasons, climate, weather, pollinating insects and plants are critical to our well-being. This year marks the 50th anniversary of the birth of the environmental movement. In 1962, Rachel Carson published Silent Spring, which documented the Suzuki terrible, unanticipated consequences of what had, until then, been considered one of science’s great inventions, DDT. Paul Mueller, who demonstrated the effects of the pesticide, was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1948. In the economic boom after the Second World War, technology held out the promise of unending innovation, progress, and prosperity. Carson pointed out that technology has costs. Carson’s book appeared when no government had an environment department or ministry. Millions around the world were soon swept up in what
Readers respond: Urban planning examples mean little to Victoria Re: Better job needed in promoting transit, urban densification (Letters, April 20) This letter states that encouraging mass transit and urban densification will reduce government costs for service provision. Hong Kong and Singapore are quoted as examples where total transportation costs are relatively low as a proportion of gross domestic product. Are these urban development principles and examples relevant to Greater Victoria? Our designated metropolitan area, which excludes the Gulf Islands and most of the large rural areas west of Sooke, has a geographical area of 697 square kilometres and a population of about 350,000. Singapore, at 710 sq. km, is almost the same geographical area as Greater
we now recognize as the environmental movement. Within 10 years, the United Nations Environment Program was created and the first global environmental conference was held in Stockholm, Sweden. With increasing catastrophes like oil and chemical spills and nuclear accidents, as well as issues such as species extinction, ozone depletion, deforestation, acid rain and global warming, environmentalists pressed for laws to protect air, water, farmland, and endangered species. Millions of hectares of land were protected as parks and reserves around the world. Thirty years later, in 1992, the largest gathering of heads of state in history met at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The event was meant to signal that economic activity could not proceed without considering ecological consequences. But, aided by recessions, popped financial bubbles, and tens of millions of dollars from corporations and wealthy neoconservatives to support a cacophony of denial from rightwing pundits
and think tanks, environmental protection came to be portrayed as an impediment to economic expansion. This emphasis of economy over environment, and indeed, the separation of the two, comes as humanity is undergoing dramatic changes. During the 20th century, our numbers increased fourfold to six billion (now up to seven billion), we moved from rural areas to cities, developed virtually all of the technology we take for granted today, and our consumptive appetite, fed by a global economy, exploded. We have become a new force that is altering the physical, chemical and biological properties of the planet on a geological scale. In creating dedicated departments, we made the environment another special interest, like education, health, and agriculture. The environment subsumes every aspect of our activities, but we failed to make the point that our lives, health, and livelihoods absolutely depend on the biosphere – air, water, soil, sunlight, and biodiversity.
Without them, we sicken and die. This perspective is reflected in spiritual practices that understand that everything is interconnected, as well as traditional societies that revere “Mother Earth” as the source of all that matters in life. When we believe the entire world is filled with unlimited “resources” provided for our use, we act accordingly. This anthropocentric view envisions the world revolving around us. So we create departments of forests, fisheries and oceans and environment, whose ministers are less concerned with the health and well-being of forests, fish, oceans, or the environment than with resources and the economies that depend on them. It’s almost a cliché to refer to a paradigm shift, but that is what we need to meet the challenge of the environmental crises our species has created. That means adopting a biocentric view that recognizes we are part of and dependent on the web of life that keeps the planet habitable for a demanding animal like us.

Urban planning, HST delay
Victoria, but has a population of 5.2 million – 15 times higher. Hong Kong, at 1,104 sq. km is about 50 per cent larger than Greater Victoria, but has a population of seven million – 20 times higher. The generalized and simplistic views expressed in the letter from Avi Ickovich are not helpful in determining effective transportation plans for our region. It would be valuable to find out if the highdensity Uptown development in Saanich has increased regional travel by attracting longer trips from a wider catchment area, as an alternative to short local shopping trips. What improvement has there been in transit usage? Regional travel patterns are complex. Chasing higher density may not be the best answer. David Langley Saanich

Re: Delay to withdraw HST The citizens of British Columbia voted and ultimately rejected the harmonized sales tax on August 26, 2011. The provincial Liberal Government, under our former premier, failed miserably in introducing this new tax thus creating much animosity in the eyes of the majority of tax payers. Since the Liberals have promised to rescind this tax in accordance with the wishes of the citizens of B.C., don’t you think we deserve to receive periodic reports from our government as to the status of the withdrawal of this tax? What’s taking so long and why do we have to wait until May 2013 to get results? Meanwhile, the provincial coffers are being replenished with questionable tax revenue which has been rejected by the majority of our citizens. As a retired fixed-income senior, I am

A Beyoncé remix blares through the speakers inside the Cordova Bay elementary gym as little bodies shake and shimmy wildly across the floor. But this isn’t dancing. This is jump rope. Whether they barely skip over one rope rotation or they channel the spirit of a boxer in training, these kids are committed. On April 26, all 266 students at the school participated in Jump Rope for Heart, an all-day jump rope fundraiser for the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada. Among the kids burning off energy for a good cause was Haleigh Miklic, a seven-year-old student for whom the event holds special meaning. As an infant, Haleigh was diagnosed with a significant ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis – or, as she explains it, a “broken heart.” After open heart surgery, Haleigh was given a clean bill of health. Sadly, her family was soon hit hard again by cardiovascular tragedy when her father suffered a heart attack and died at age 38. Haleigh surpassed her goal of raising $2,000 in pledges toward fixing broken hearts and has already set her sights on bringing in $3,000 in 2013. “It’s important to other people’s families and it feels good,” said Haleigh, who finds the doubledutch element of the event particularly enjoyable. In 2011, Haleigh was the school’s top fundraiser, bringing in $1,270 of the total $11,715 raised at the school. Cordova Bay elementary has been involved with Jump Rope for Heart for 22 years of the event’s 30-year history and has raised more than $120,000 to date. “(The students) get an inner desire to help and

GOING SOMEWHERE? Young entrepreneur awards deadline Sunday F 1 FOR Brittany Lee News staff
To run a successful business, simply love what you do. That’s according to Daisy Leslie, co-owner of the Root Cellar Village Green Grocer on McKenzie Ave. Leslie, along with her husband Adam Orser, and business partner Phil Lasreniere, won the Business Development Bank of Canada Young Entrepreneur Award in 2009. Winning the award, and funding it provided, gave them the confidence boost they needed as a new business, and reinforced their love for the business, Leslie said. “It gave us more courage to take risks in the business.” Since winning the award and becoming more recognized in the community, the pressure to keep up with customers’ standards increased. “We’ve become known as a business that operates with integrity, and with people as a high priority. So there’s almost sort of a pressure to lead by example,” she said. The Root Cellar has not only grown in staffing (from eight in 2008 to 55 now), but it’s also grown in sales. “As we’re well-embraced, it’s just extra fuel for that fire because (our business is) working, and people are getting excited and awareness is grow-

ing,” Leslie said. “The amount of local product we’re selling now compared to five years ago just tells us that people are listening.” Entrepreneurs under the age of 35 have until Sunday (May 6) to enter this year’s BDC Young Entrepreneur Award. This year’s contest includes a grand prize of $100,000 for innovation and $25,000 to a runner-up. For more information or to apply, visit bdcyoungentrepreneuraward.ca. reporter@vicnews.com

Maarten Schaddelee’s Wings of Light, an alabaster bowl carved into delicate eagle wings that allow light to come through in much the same way light is visible through eagle feathers made of B.C. alabaster.
Maarten Schaddelee will be showcasing new work and a new direction for his work in the annual Maarten Schaddelee Spring Fine Art Show May 5 and 6. A selection of the new work is created from ancient materials including marble and 800 year old cedar. Many of the pieces express the spirit of the wildlife that lives on the land and in the ocean near the Maarnada studio, says Schaddelee. “We’re surrounded by eagles right now. They are flying overhead, spending time in our yard and exploring the beach,” he says. “In sculpting them I've been stretching them out to emphasize their movement and grace. They don't look like eagles in photographs; it’s more an expression of their spirit in flight.” Schaddelee's signature whale tails have also evolved, stretching to emphasize grace and movement. Recently, his whale tails have been created from 800 year old red cedar blocks that
were originally destined to be cedar shakes. An alabaster bowl is carved into delicate eagle wings that allow light to come through in much the same way light is visible through eagle feathers. Schaddelee has created pieces from stone he refers to as Dutch Bakery marble, a slab of Italian marble that was a table top in the Dutch Bakery on Fort Street where he worked for 28 years. “I learned to work with my hands on that marble table,” Schaddelee says. “When the table cracked and couldn't be used as a table anymore they gave it to me so the beautiful stone could continue to evolve. You could say we’ve both gone through a transformation.” The public is invited to Maarnada studios, gallery and sculpture garden, 4635 Vantreight Drive, May 5 and 6 between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Schaddelee will be in attendance both days. llavin@vicnews.com

My name is Darren Weeks and I know from the bottom of my heart that everyone has the same chance. I am an average Joe. I grew up in a middle class family. I had no special breaks, and didn’t know any famous people who gave me my start. I definitely didn’t win any lottery.
One of my star students was a tradesperson who was fed up with trying to make ends meet every month. Rob Chaulk was a hard worker that knew his job wasn’t going to make life any easier. He also dabbled in some businesses along the way in the restaurant and towing business.
But I have done very well for my age... ...and I have shown thousands of Canadians how to copy my formula for financial independence. My company, the Fast Track Group, has been ranked among Canada’s Fastest Growing Companies for two straight years now. Last year, we finished 40th on PROFIT Magazine’s list. In 10 years, I have taken it from 5 employees in one tiny office, to over 100 employees and 12 offices. More than 350,000 Canadians have
No, they took action and realized that... ...turbulent times like this are where most of the wealthiest 1% made their biggest gains.
But he didn’t become financially independent until he mastered the money game. I was fortunate enough to be the one who showed him how. He has quit the trades, and now owns multiple businesses and has millions of dollars in cash-flow-positive real estate properties. One simple shift in the way he thought about money, a solid action plan to move forward, and he now never again needs to worry about money or paying bills. I personally grew up in a middle class family with no special advantages or opportunities. The difference for me though was a significant desire to be and have more. It wasn’t about all the fancy toys... for me it was about putting an end to the time for money trap I saw everyone else falling for. It was about seeing more of the world. It was about raising a young family in an environment that was positive about money, and the opportunities abound that created more money for those with initiative.
Mama’s got a squeeze box May 6 is World Accordion Day. Established in 2009 to officially mark the 180th birthday of the instrument, the day is a worldwide celebration of all things accordion. This year it’s going to be a special one with a 24-hour celebration of the accordion, similar to the coverage of New Years Eve, where celebrations are viewed on an ongoing basis as the time zones elapse around the world, ending with live stream interview from Victoria. Locally there will be a concert May 6, at 2 p.m., at the Edelweiss club, the home of Victoria Accordion Club. Prior to the concert, there will be a special screening of the history of accordion. After that, the audience will enjoy performances from the Victoria Accordion Club Band, B.C. Accordion Orchestra, internationally acclaimed classical accordionist Jelena Milojevic and other special guests. Everything will be filmed and broadcast around the world a few hours later. After the concert, there will be light refreshments provided. Tickets are by donation. On May 31, the B.C. Accordion Orchestra will have its traditional annual concert, with a new program. The show will be at Alix Goolden Hall, starting at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are available at Tempo Trend, Long & McQuade and Victoria Conservatory. llavin@vicnews.com

I immersed myself in the “Rich Dad” philosophies, and ultimately worked directly with Robert Kiyosaki to teach Canadian’s these same philosophies and how to take control of their financial future. I began investing in real estate. I started up businesses that supported my new money mindset. I tried to find others in Canada who I could talk to about this drive I had.
“The difference for me though was a significant desire to be more and have more.”
It was difficult to find people who thought about money like I did...

Barbs smash St. Mikes in Boot Game Oak Bay Barbarians take the bronze boot Travis Paterson News staff
There’s no boot like a bronze boot. The bronzed rugby shoe of former St. Michaels University School and Canadian national team player Gareth Rees represents Victoria’s biggest derby in high school rugby. And for the next 12 months it will live at Oak Bay High. Oak Bay Barbarians winger Kimia Hamedi scored a try, hit all five of his team’s conversions and nailed a penalty kick for a total of 18 points as the Barbs beat St. Michaels University School 38-17 in the annual Boot Game at St. Michaels on Tuesday (May 1). “It’s great to see the great rivalry that is the Boot Game,” said Barbs coach Murray Allen, vice principal of Oak Bay High. “For the kids, this is one of the biggest games of the year. The size of the crowd was enormous. Students, parents and alumni show how big a deal it is.” St. Mikes is no slouch in the AAA rugby standings. The school is always among the tops in Victoria and is currently ranked eighth overall in the province. But size is on Oak Bay’s side this year, as the Barbs are ranked second in B.C. and are one of the select few who could challenge the nobility of No. 1-ranked Shawnigan Lake Stags for a B.C. title. “(St. Mikes) carried the play in the first part of the game, had more possession and defended well,” Allen said. “We took advantage of mistakes to go up 21-7 by the half.” Despite having the lead, the Barbs didn’t take control of the play until early in the second half when fly-half Riley MacPher-

The Barbs won 38-17. son came back after an eight-minute banishment to the sin bin. “MacPherson might have been our player of the game. Once he came back on we really got things going,” Allen said. The win was Oak Bay’s fourth against top-10 ranked AAA teams this year, including victories over Carson Graham (No. 4), G.P. Vanier (No. 10) and Earl Marriott (No. 5). The two clubs are destined to meet again for the Howard Russell Cup, the city’s AAA championship. That final is scheduled for May 17 at Oak Bay High. It will be played back-to-back with the city’s A/AA Colonel-
Hodgkins final. “We don’t have a big forward pack. We do have a lot of skill, but we need to be fleet of foot,” said St. Mikes coach Eliot Anderson. “Provincially, if we’re fit and healthy we’re a tough game for anybody.” Also scoring tries for the Barbs was Kaz Kobayashi, with two, and Crosby Stewart and Thomas Mirmotahari with one each.
Sevens heaven The Glenlyon Norfolk School rugby team took a lot of first steps this season, a year of trial-by-fire as the small program jumped to Tier 1 in the Lower Island rugby sched-
ule. It has meant suffering big losses – 44-8 to St. Mikes and 48-0 to the Barbs. But by no means has it brought Glenlyon down. The team is led by B.C. youth sevens star Fergus Hall and came up with a pair of Tier 1 victories recently, 12-7 over the Claremont Spartans and 34-17 over the Reynolds Rogues. But where Glenlyon really made its mark this year was at the provincial seven-aside championships in early March. With Hall at the helm, Glenlyon finished fourth among the 22 teams competing. Glenlyon won all three pool games but lost to eventual champion Shawnigan Lake, 31-0, in the semifinals. Earl Marriott defeated Glenlyon 42-7 in the bronze medal game. Oak Bay, which was in the pool of death with Shawnigan and St. Mikes, recovered with a 31-7 win over Burnaby North but lost 31-19 to St. George’s in the plate semifinal. St. Mikes fell in the bowl championship 19-7 to Lord Byng. sports@vicnews.com
