Saanich residential care building on fast track

Reading rhythms the

Christine van Reeuwyk News staff

Construction of a residential care unit in Saanich will break ground as soon as possible, a decision made in the wake of Oak Bay council quashing a partner project last week. Oak Bay voted down requested height and parking variances to redevelop Oak Bay Lodge as a 320-bed dementia care facility, operated by Baptist Housing on behalf of the Vancouver Island Health Authority. The tandem project is a seven-storey, 260-bed facility at Mount View Heights on Carey Road in Saanich. The two buildings were designed to replace 580 residential care beds in Greater Victoria, but VIHA will now seek a new site for the building once planned for Oak Bay. VIHA president and CEO Howard Waldner said that in the meantime, the Mount View Heights project would forge ahead as planned. “We’re going to be proceeding to finalizing that,” Waldner said, noting that Saanich approved the project more than a year ago. “(Saanich) dealt with this very expeditiously and we’ll be moving forward to get that one under construction as soon as we can.” VIHA, Baptist Housing and the Capital Regional Hospital District have partnered in a $125-million project to replace beds at the existing Oak Bay Lodge and at Mount Tolmie Hospital. “We will build the beds elsewhere, outside of Oak Bay,” Waldner said. “Oak Bay Lodge will close. “We’ll be giving the requisite one year notice to families of the move.” PLEASE SEE: Baptist Housing, Page A4

Groundbreaking computer security recognizes the unique way you type and move a mouse Photo illustration by Don Denton

UVic engineers have patented a system that can create a user profile by how someone uses a keyboard and mouse. The technology has drawn sharp interest from national governments, banks and security agencies.

Natalie North News staff

rumbs in the keyboard or questionable web browsing history aren’t the only ways to tell who’s been using your computer. A newly patented biometric technology makes it possible to identify the person at the monitor based on keystroke habits and mouse movements alone. Potential for the technology, developed over the last 12 years by Issa Traore, University of Victoria professor in the department of electrical and computer engineering, and former PhD student Ahmed Ahmed, reaches well beyond the realm of surveilling a home office. The security of Internet banking, military communications and online testing stand to be revolutionized through the technology. It works by capturing and profiling user rhythms on the keyboard and mouse. This profile is then used to lock out any other

users from that account or computer. When applied to password logins, the security protocol can identify users within five or six seconds based on how they type in their password. Even if someone else types in your password, it’s unlikely they could match the subtle differences in keystroke timing and behaviour. It can also be set to continuously monitor a computer between login and logout – an application that requires about three to seven minutes of computer use, depending on how many keystrokes or mouse movements are made. In the event an intended user is called away from a work station and another user attempts to use the computer, the technology immediately recognizes an unintended user and locks them out. Biometric technology, which compares physical or behavioural traits to a database, includes fingerprint, facial or retinal scans. “Instead of a more traditional biometric

system, like retinal or fingerprint recognition, that requires expensive hardware and is limited by users only being able to access the network from a specific computer, our system can be used by anyone from any location,” Traore said. The system could solve the problem for universities of verifying student identification for high-level exams. “This is also a very accurate way of ensuring a student (taking an online exam) hasn’t given their password to someone else to take the exam, because right now we don’t have any other way to do that,” he said. In addition to development via 200 computer users at UVic, Traore tested the technology with software installed on his own home computer, where his 15-year-old son was locked out after he attempted to login under another family member’s unrestricted user account.

COMMUNITY NEWS IN BRIEF

Last chance for input on clubhouse Get your voice heard on the future of the vacant second floor of the Cedar Hill golf course clubhouse by filling out Saanich’s online survey. An ongoing public consultation process will end tomorrow (July 5), before the hired consultant analyzes the feedback and submits a report to Saanich. Saanich council is expected to make a decision on what to do with the former restaurant space in August. Fill out the survey online at saanich.ca/chgc.

Saanich gets new director of finance Valla Tinney, currently the director of corporate services with the Town of Sidney, was appointed last week as Saanich’s director of finance. “I think Saanich just has a positive culture, and the people that I know that work there really care about serving the community and doing good work,” she said. Saanich born and raised, Tinney is a certified general accountant and earned a business diploma from Camosun College. She has also worked for the Esquimalt and View Royal municipalities. “I’m really excited to join the Saanich team, and I’m very happy that they want to have me,” she said. Tinney replaces Paul Murray, who was promoted to municipal administrator in June after chief administrative officer Tim Wood retired. Tinney begins her new job Aug. 7.

Carey Place ‘a dream come true’ Affordable seniors housing opens in Saanich Kyle Slavin News staff

Judy Moscovitz proudly shows off her new apartment. She points out the dishwasher and stove (which still has manufacturer stickers on the door), the high ceilings in her living room and the private patio on the ground floor where her 16-year-old dog, Dusty, lays in the sun. “I’ve always wanted a southwest corner unit. And in all my 70 years I’ve never had one,” Moscovitz says. She does now. The Montreal-born senior also notes her home doesn’t have mould growing in the ceiling, making her and Dusty sick, as their previous residence did. Carey Place, a 55-unit affordable seniors building at Mount View Heights on Carey Road, held its grand opening last week. The $12.3-million building is operated by Baptist Housing, and is the result of financial collaboration from itself, the federal and provincial governments, along

Kyle Slavin/News staff

Judy Moscovitz, 70, a tenant at the newly opened Carey Place apartments at Mount View Heights, stands in front of the building at its official grand opening last Wednesday. with the Capital Regional District. “This is another dream come true,” Saanich Mayor Frank Leonard told a crowd of people at the opening. “I’m very grateful for all the partners that made this possible.” Mount View Heights has been dubbed a “campus of care.” When complete, it will offer free

or affordable housing to seniors, formerly homeless people and lowincome families. “This is a very special place,” said Murray Coell, MLA (Liberal) for Saanich North and the Islands. “It’s going to be a great place for people to live.” Moscovitz already knows that firsthand. She moved in to her

apartment June 1, and says she’s floored by the quality of living offered in a subsidized building. She excitedly points out a metal rod sewed into the shower curtain that clips to the wall. It prevents water from exiting the shower stall and soaking the floor. “There’s so many little things that they didn’t have to do, but they did. It’s affordable housing, but it’s so luxurious,” she says. Carey Place is the third building to open at Mount View Heights. Already operational are Olympic Vista Apartments, a 36-suite building providing transitional housing for previously homeless individuals aged 55 and over, and Vergo Townhouses, 14 homes that offer low rent to families earning less than $64,000 a year. Mount View Heights is a $100million project that includes future plans for a seven-storey 244-bed residential care facility, a six-storey 112-unit independent seniors living home, and a commercial building. Moscovitz says she’s excited to have a safe and healthy place to call home – especially one on the southwest corner that allows her and Dusty to soak up the sun. “It’s very special. I love it here,” she says. “I hope this is my very last place ever – that’s my intent.”

New transit taxes for light rail deferred Erin McCracken News staff

The region’s leaders are not yet ready to pick and choose from a new list of money pots that could finance a proposed $950-million light-rail rapid transit system, and other transit improvement projects on the region. Instead, the Capital Regional District transportation select committee decided last Wednesday to wait for an independent review of B.C. Transit to wrap up in August. That may lead the province to give the CRD control of Greater Victoria’s transit system, a regional voice that many leaders say is needed to manage such a big-ticket LRT project. Transportation committee members reviewed a draft report, published last Tuesday, that outlines 17 possible funding sources that could pay for the local share of transit projects, such as LRT. Fees on non-residential parking spaces, vehicles registered in the region and levies collected from the workers of larger employers were identified as the big money-makers. Saanich mayor and committee chair Frank

Leonard said there appeared to be little appetite around the committee table to discuss specific ways to pay for an LRT project that is years away from happening. “People want to talk about the project, but no one wants to talk about funding it with taxes.” One of the only committee members to directly discuss the merits of the proposed options, Victoria Coun. Marianne Alto said most people who pay for vehicle registration wouldn’t balk at paying an additional $5.

Ticket to ride Q CRD public transit costs about $100 million per year, covered by $34.8 million in fares, $34.4 million from the province and $29.9 million in local property and fuel taxes. Q Future transit improvements are projected to cost an extra $1 billion over 20 years. Divided equally between the region and provincial and federal governments, Greater Victoria would need to generate an extra $15 million per year, a 50 per cent hike over current costs.

“As a car driver, I think the vehicle levy is a great idea. It’s simple and it’s easy, it’s not very expensive, and it generates $1 million a year,” she said. Victoria mayor and committee vice-chair Dean Fortin again championed the benefits of pumping a new local gas tax directly into a fund that would pay for the local share of rapid transit. “It might be 10 years, it might be 15 years, but when you know that our local share will be in the $250-million mark of a $750-million project (for partial build-out of LRT), then wouldn’t it be nice to know that we actually have one-third or half of that already in there?” Fortin said. Following the meeting, Leonard disagreed, preferring that people in the future pay for the local share of the transit project, if and when it becomes reality. “I don’t think we should tax people now for a project in the future,” he said. It is “reasonable” to take out a loan to help pay for a large-scale capital project, and have the taxpayers of the day pay for the project over a 10- to 15-year period, he explained. “I don’t think we should increase taxes right now to build up a piggy bank.” emccracken@vicnews.com

Baptist Housing blindsided, says CEO Continued from Page A1

Waldner said VIHA is already hearing from other municipalities interested in seeing a facility on their turf. “Those beds were needed two years ago, so we’re going to be moving very quickly to re-provide those beds,” Waldner said. “My target would be to have these beds open within two years.” Oak Bay’s rejection makes it a bittersweet week for Baptist Housing, which just celebrated last Wednesday’s opening of Carey Place, a 55-unit affordable seniors apartment complex on the Mount View Heights property.

tist Housing, said he was blindsided by Oak Bay’s decision to vote down requested variances on height and parking. After being shot down on variances in November 2011, Johnson said Baptist Housing worked closely with Oak Bay municipal staff and neighbouring residents to address concerns. The organization held no less than eight public meetings, he said, and worked with staff to create a building that met the need for 320 beds and that fit within the community. “We spent a great deal of time talking to the neighbours and made a number of changes in terms of height and location on the site,” Johnson said. “We felt there was enough

change and my sense was that there was indications we’d be successful. It would be foolish to go through this again if we’d thought it would be a 4-2 vote. “We are extremely disappointed in the decision Oak Bay council made. We feel there is a great need for care for seniors in Oak Bay.” Opposing Oak Bay councillors said the proposed building was too big and out of character for the neighbourhood. “VIHA should have asked us at the outset what we thought was appropriate on the site,” said Oak Bay Mayor Nils Jensen, who cast the final vote opposed to the variances. – with files from Edward Hill cvanreeuwyk@oakbaynews.com

Tolerance to bright light If you wear glasses or contact lenses and have a low tolerance to bright light, you may want to consider getting properly prescribed sunglasses for your vision comfort. Your eyebrows, eyelids, and iris, which is the coloured part of the eye, offer some protection from sunlight and glare, but if bright or glaring light bothers your eyes, you may need the added protection of sunglasses. Certain occupations such as outside work or driving may beneﬁt from sunglass protection. Sunlight provides the light we need to see objects clearly, but it also emits two invisible forms of radiation, ultraviolet and infrared rays. A low tolerance to bright light or over-exposure to the rays of the sun may cause minor eye irritation while prolonged exposure may cause more serious problems. You want to be able to see clearly and comfortably no matter what the light conditions and you also want to protect your eyes. Ask your eye doctor as to which sunglass is the most appropriate for you.

Police arrested a 22-year-old Saanich man last week for a string of six arsons over two hours. The firebug spree began around 1 a.m. on Thursday (June 28) after two garbage dumpsters were set ablaze near Market Square. A witness called 911 and was able to provide a detailed description, which police say was instrumental in making the eventual arrest. The suspected arsonist moved out of the core, lighting two more fires around 2:30 a.m. A trailer connected to a pickup truck was set on fire near Cook and Empress streets. Then behind Oakland School (Belmont Avenue and Ryan Street), a bus operated by the Children’s Society was set on fire. Not long after, at nearby Zellers at Hillside mall, a garbage bale near

a loading dock was set on fire, but was extinguished by police. Crossing North Dairy into Saanich, the suspect pushed a lit garbage can next to the Shelbourne Medical Clinic building, damaging an exterior wall and triggering the fire alarm. Saanich police caught up to the alleged arsonist at Shelbourne Street and Christmas Avenue and made an arrest based on the description given from the original fire. Police were also able to recover “key evidence,” although what that is hasn't been released. Const. Mike Russell, with Victoria police, said the alleged arsonist isn't known to police and moved on foot from location to location. Victoria and Saanich police are contacting business owners to assess the physical damage and financial toll. Charges and the name of the suspect weren’t available at press time. editor@saanichnews.com

July hearing for sex abuse case against priest The case against a former Catholic priest accused of sexually abusing minors in Saanich will head to a voir dire phase of court proceedings in July. Philip Jacobs served as a parish priest at St. Joseph the Worker on Burnside Road West from 1998 to 2002. A pretrial conference last week in Victoria Supreme Court set a date for the voir dire – a hearing to examine evidence or witness competency – for July 23.

Police seeking owner of discarded hockey gear Kyle Slavin News staff

Police are looking to return a full set of hockey gear, including a unique Simpsons-emblazoned jersey, found abandoned in Gordon Head. The items, which also included an old bicycle, were found on Majestic Drive at Hawthorne

Street last Wednesday morning (June 27). The only items missing from a full set of hockey gear are skates and a helmet. The clothes would fit a youth or small adult hockey player. The logo on the blue jersey reads ‘Duff’ and has an image of Homer Simpson holding up a mug of beer.

“Given the unique nature of the jersey, somebody may know who this equipment belongs to, or something about the team,” said Saanich police Sgt. Dean Jantzen. Police are asking anyone with information on who this equipment belongs to or the team to call 250-475-4321. kslavin@saanichnews.com

OUR VIEW

History shaped today’s Canada L

ast weekend, Canadians from sea to sea to sea participated in our ongoing attempt at nation building. Canada Day celebrations held special significance this year, which marks the 200th anniversary of the War of 1812. Like every country, ours is founded on myths. Some of Canada’s earliest heroes – Laura Bumpy start Secord and Issac Brock before more – date back to that war, tolerant times which established that North America would be home to a distinctly British nation as well as an American republic. In classrooms, Canadians learn to take pride in the defence of our homeland and how our nation was forged by our battles against a much larger army of American invaders. And like all myths, it can be difficult to determine historic reality from the “messaging” written after the hostilities ended. Thankfully, the bicentennial of that war has prompted both government and media to dig deeper into the history of the muddied narrative of the War of 1812. Documentaries and re-enactments will bring the lessons of this conflict to new generations who may know little about the significance of this war. Books and newspaper features will dig up new information from the archives to shed more light on how events actually unfolded. But, as happens every time we really look at ourselves in the mirror, we will see things we might wish we hadn’t. For as much as our earliest settlers stood against the African slave trade and brutal raids on aboriginal lands, some of those early Canadians also closed off the country to the spirit of development and innovation that allowed the U.S. to blossom. After the War of 1812, as both countries went their separate ways, we spent decades as a country that severely restricted many of the rights – such as religious freedom and democratic principles – that are cherished today. But from that tyranny of conformity emerged a country that would eventually come to be known as among the most tolerant and peaceful in the world: Canada. What do you think?

the coast and endure the demands of island dwellers who want the rest of us to subsidize their splendid isolation. The proposition for them will boil down to this: You can pay more or you can have fewer sailings. And where the boat is a third full, you will have fewer sailings. This consultation period is an opportunity to ask some hard questions. For instance, does Salt Spring Island really need three ferry terminals? And why is there no passenger-only service? Macatee’s term as commissioner started with a detailed review last year that pointed to some other ways to save serious money. But CEO Corrigan says there are no quick fixes. FortisBC has offered an $11-million incentive for conversion of marine vessels to natural gas, which would give the fleet significant relief from spiraling fuel costs. But a ferry conversion would take six months or more, and another ship would be needed in the meantime. Another promising suggestion is overhauling the ferry reservation service, making reservations free and charging extra for those who just show up. Corrigan says a computer reservation overhaul now underway will take three years. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

One thing that I’ve not heard anything about during the discussion and debate around our transportation woes is telecommuting. How many people are driving into downtown to do administrative work that otherwise could be done from a home office? You might have to go into the office once in awhile, but how many vehicles would this take off the road in morning and late afternoon? In this age of smartphones and BlackBerrys, webinars and teleconferencing, it’s completely doable. I do 80 per cent of my work from home and 20 per cent at clients – and it works great. The other thing Victorians need to remember is we have a lot of people in a small area, but not enough people to pay for a billion-dollar rail system that will just grow into a monster, like TransLink on the Lower Mainland. We might just have to learn to be a little more patient and little less demanding. Bob Broughton Saanich

I would happily pay the additional one per cent on my property taxes instead of the money that council spends on surveys for “public engagement” often with limited transparency or fiscal accountability for the use of said surveys. Offering free clean up kits is not enough. It is time for B.C. Hydro, Canada Post and the municipality to take a co-ordinated approach like other cities including New York, San Diego and Kelowna have successfully done. A run-down looking Saanich is not a good and healthy situation. Graffiti damages our clean image as being one of the best municipalities in the province. Council should reconsider this use of funds as an investment in a healthy and clean Saanich. Any graffiti is obscene because it damages our landscape, reduces our property values and invites more crime into an area. Let’s clean it up now. Art Pollard Saanich

Saanich must do more to protect from dangerous dogs I am writing to express my concerns regarding dangerous dogs in our communities. It has been six months now that our Havanese dog was killed on our property in Saanich by two Rottweiler dogs that broke through our fence and entered our yard. I watched in horror as they tore our beloved pet apart. I could obviously do nothing about it, as I could only imagine what they

would have done to me as well. The neighbours have paid for the expenses of the pet and fence. I only wonder why anyone would want such dogs in close urban centres? I ask, again, the mayor and council how they and their bylaw enforcement officers could deem dogs dangerous and yet let them remain in our communities? I also ask: who is now responsible for any further incidents with such dogs? I often run on local trails and I am sure I am not the only one who encounters threats of intimidation by uncontrolled dogs with owners who don’t care. I would think that such dogs constitutes possession of a lethal weapon. All dogs will get loose at least once, but God forbid these types of dogs should get loose again. Why do we give them a second chance? If you think your dog was deemed dangerous unfairly then you should fight it. I don’t think Saanich can go back on their word with these people now, but this needs to be changed so no dog in the future ever gets a second chance at killing or harming any person or their pet.

Through a variety of refining and smelting processes, the materials reclaimed from unwanted electronics are used as raw materials in the manufacturing of new products. Why is this important: The Return-It Electronics recycling program provides an environmentally sound recycling option for unwanted electronics. It ensures these items

will not be landfilled or illegally exported. You can drop off any of the acceptable products at designated Return-It Electronics Collection Sites without charge and be assured they will be recycled responsibly. For large volumes: Pick up services for large volumes (i.e. three pallets or more) of unwanted electronics is provided at no cost as long as certain requirements have been met. Requirements can be found at return-it.ca/largevolume.

At the time, police said there was not enough evidence to confirm or dispel whether attempted abductions had taken place. “The Oaklands ones could be similar, because they’re similar in description, but this one (involving a George Jay student)

is a marked departure from those,” Russell said. The suspect from last week is described as white, with a white beard and a blonde ponytail. He was wearing glasses, a white shirt and blue jeans and was likely a ciga-

LOOK TE

Victoria police say an attempted child luring incident last Wednesday (June 27) is likely not linked to three similar incidents in the last two months. Detectives are investigating after a 10-yearold girl reported being approached by a man who asked her for help and that she go with him to his van, parked across the street. The girl had been walking to school at George Jay elementary, located at 1118 Princess Ave. Instead of going with the man, she ran to a nearby family member. School staff were immediately notified and police were called at just after 9 a.m. Victoria police are calling the incident an attempted child abduction. It is the fourth report

of a suspected child luring at an elementary school in recent months. Police don’t believe this latest case is connected to three incidents near Oaklands elementary. “Parents have a right to be concerned,” said Const. Mike Russell. “I think it’s important they take a lot of steps with their children, discussing safety tactics, discussing how to go to and from school (and summer programs).” Police patrols were stepped up during school hours at Oaklands elementary after a 10-year-old boy was allegedly asked to go with a man in exchange for money on June 5. The incident is said to have happened after school, near Oaklands school, located at 2827 Belmont Ave. In incidents May 15

If your looking to free up room in your house, bring your dusty old treadmill to the Bottle Depot on Glanford Road. The facility doubles as a ElectroRecycle depot, collecting an assortment of appliances and electronics such as vacuums, microwaves and stereos. Starting July 1, the store will also accept exercise equipment, sewing machines and power tools. “Anything with a power cord, plug or battery are included in the program,” said Jordan Best, who speaks for ElectroRecycle. All items can be dropped off free of charge during business hours. Also starting July 1, any new purchases of these items will have a levy added to the bill to cover the cost of recycling. All collected items will be taken apart and sorted into groups such as plastic, glass and metal. The fee pays for transporting and disassembling the items. Metals are melted down and used to create new products, while plastics and glass are sorted and sold or reused in various manufacturing processes. The program was introduced by the Canadian Electrical Stewardship Association. It was launched in October 2011 under the former name Unplugged. This is the first program of its kind in Canada. There are 10 ElectroRecycle drop-off locations across Greater Victoria. For more information on the program, go to www.electrorecycle.ca. charla@goldstreamgazette.com

Meet the men who crew the boat on Canada Post’s new stamp Travis Paterson News staff

Kevin Kowalyk smiled from one side of his mouth when he saw Canada Post’s commemorative Rowing Canada stamp unveiled by fellow London-bound rowers Dave Calder and Morgan Jarvis. The stamp’s release, which depicts a men’s double scull, followed the formal introduction of Rowing Canada’s Olympic team at Elk Lake on Thursday. Crews from six of Canada’s seven Olympic boats were there, while the women’s heavyweight eight was officially confirmed at its Ontario training centre. As the stamp stood prominently on display, rowers from the country’s more established boats took the spotlight, such as the gold-medal-winning men’s eight, and the locally produced women’s double of Lindsay Jennerich and Patricia Obee. Meanwhile Kowalyk and his doubles partner Michael Braithwaite stood quitely among the remaining group of the 21 rowers. Ironcially, they’ll be manning the double scull depicted on the Olympic-themed stamp. “That’s totally our boat, so this is pretty cool,” Kowalyk said. Granted it’s not actually Kowalyk and Braithwaite depicted in the stamp, which was designed by Kosta Tsetsekas and Mike Savage of Vancouver-based Signals Design, and illustrated by Keith Martin. Kowalyk, 31, isn’t surprised at the lack of attention. “Back where I come from in Winnipeg, I don’t even think they know I exist.” The story of Kowalyk’s journey to becom-

At 25 years old, he was a typical Winnipegger, working sales in the oil industry and playing hockey at night. He was kickboxing, too. But a concussion limited him from both sports, and led to trying rowing for the first time. “I thought I was going kayaking. I had no idea what was ahead.” It took a while to get a knack for it but he loved it from the start. When the economy dimmed and his job became expendable, Kowalyk took the opportunity to enroll at the University of Manitoba and pour the rest of his energy into rowing. “I found myself in pretty good shape, but still didn’t make the cut in 2010, and I ran out of money. So I came back in 2011.” Up until that point, Kowalyk had literally coached himself. “The rowing (scene) in Winnipeg isn’t like here, so my prospects weren’t high.” Through domestic competitions he made his way into the men’s four, and helped qualify that boat for this summer’s Olympics, finishing seventh at the Rowing World Cup in Bled, Slovenia, in 2011. All he had to do was keep up his training,

Nine Wave players to rep B.C. Nine players from the Vancouver Island Wave rep program and local club

soccer teams will play for B.C. this summer. Greater Victoria’s under-13 player Sean Pearse (Gordon HeadSaanich Fusion), U14 players Max Branyik (Gordon Head-Saanich Fusion), Mackenzie Cole (Gorge) and Liam McManaman (Cordova Bay-Saanich Fusion), and U15 players Dory Blakely (Bays United), Ben Avila (Gordon HeadSaanich Fusion) and Josh Cuthbert (Lakehill-Prospect Lake) will all wear B.C. colours. Josh and his brother Elliott (U13) are heading to

Rowing 101 To scull is to row two oars, one in each hand. To sweep is to row one oar, on one side of the boat, using both hands. A four-person sculling boat is a quad, and the two-person a double, while sweeping boats are known by the number, such as the eight, four and pair.

and he was London-bound, but things happen, like pneumonia. When he caught the debilitating lung infection in December, it knocked him out of the four. When he came back, he was isolated in a single scull, starting from scratch. Such is the life of a rower, and then some. “It’s funny because (Braithwaite) and I were roommates but were in different boats. Instead of trying to get back in the four, all of a sudden we were competing against each other for a spot in the double.” At 25, Braithwaite is the same age at which Kowalyk started. The Duncan native rowed varsity at the University of Toronto, and went on to win the men’s under-23 national championship in the single scull, and again in 2010 in the senior men’s category. Both relocated to Victoria early in 2011, the mainland in September to join the Vancouver Whitecaps residency program fulltime.

Highlands player tops among NAIA Kate Johnson is coming home with her hands full after an award-winning college baseball season. The 21-year-old Highlands resident was named to multiple awards, including player of the year for the Dakota Athletic Conference, as first baseman for the Jamestown College Jimmies.

and soon rented a place together, typical of the national rowers who come to Elk Lake’s training centre. But things went from brotherly to awkward this spring, cramping their homespace. During trials in March and April, Kowalyk and Braithwaite were part of a doubles matrix, with Fraser Berkhout and Steve Van Knotsenburg. Unless Kowalyk and Braithwaite finished first and second in the matrix rankings – which they eventually did, respectively – each was at risk of eliminating the other’s Olympic dream. “It could have been worse. There was some tension, but really, the only effect was we didn’t speak as much during that time,” Braithwaite said. And it’s all good now, to the point where Braithwaite wonders if they’d be doing as well if they hadn’t established the chemistry they have. “My goal was to get set up for the next quadrennial by making a push for this summer’s Olympics, with (Rio de Janeiro 2016) being the ultimate goal,” Braithwaite said. “(London) is just icing on the cake.” “I’m pretty confident (Braithwaite) will get me where I want to go,” Kowalyk said. sports@vicnews.com

Johnson, who graduated from Lambrick Park’s baseball academy and Devils Fastball Club, finished her third year of colllege ball as a first team all-star for the entire Association of Independent Institutions conference of the NAIA, as well as being a Dakota conference first team all-star and gold glove winner. Johnson hit .378 with 10 home runs and 59 RBI, and set two school records, one for her 22-game hitting streak and another for hitting eight RBI in one game.

Lacrosse film to play in Sidney Teen hopes to share history of his people’s sport Erin Cardone News staff

When Landon Underwood came across a movie he identified with, he figured it was something worth sharing. “It seems pretty inspirational,” he said. The 13-year-old lacrosse fanatic stumbled across a trailer for Crooked Arrows, a newly released film about lacrosse with a strong local connection, and told his dad, Pauquachin chief Bruce Underwood about it. The teen couldn’t find any cinemas playing the movie locally so his dad encouraged him to take action. “It wasn’t anywhere in Victoria; it was only in Vancouver,” Landon said. He went to see Sandy Oliver at Star Cinema. “I asked if she could bring in

Crooked Arrows.” And she did. “I think it’s pretty cool,” Landon said. The film is scheduled to start screening Friday, July 6 and could run for about a week. “These are our lovely community members and they’ve been supportive of us for years,” Oliver said. “There are films that speak to individuals and communities [and] that’s what we’re here for.” And there’s that local tie-in. Gary Gait, known as the best lacrosse player of all time with his twin, Paul, is featured in the film. Gait played for the Peninsula Warriors and attended Claremont secondary school. He played for the Victoria Shamrocks before starring in the National Lacrosse League, Major League Lacrosse and the Canadian national team. Gait has been inducted into the United States Lacrosse National Hall of Fame and the National Lacrosse League Hall of Fame.

James Charles Allen Smith pleaded guilty to two charges in the Western Communities Courthouse on Thursday (June 28) related to last year’s fuel truck crash outside Goldstream Park. The Nanaimo resident pleaded guilty to one regulatory charge under the Fisheries Act for depositing gasoline and diesel into water frequented by fish. On his criminal charges, Smith pleaded guilty to dangerous operation of a motor vehicle. Smith was originally charged with four other counts (two criminal, two environmental) which will be stayed following

sentencing. The charges stem from the evening of April 16, 2011, when a Columbia Fuels b-train fuel tanker lost control and plowed into a rock face just outside of Goldstream Provincial Park. The crash dumped 42,000 litres of gasoline and 700 litres of diesel into the river. Neither Smith nor his lawyer, Dale Marshall, would comment outside the courthouse, with Marshall saying he will wait until sentencing, likely in September, before making a statement. Marshall did say that Smith is “struggling” with the charges. The case is due back in court on Aug. 28 for a pre-sentencing report.

Wednesday, July 4, 2012 - SAANICH

News staff

Victoria police are expressing regret after a woman was bitten by a police dog last Wednesday morning (June 27). Victoria police dogs and their handlers were deployed to help track

suspects after Rosie’s Cold Beer & Wine store at 3020 Blanshard St. was broken into around 1 a.m. During the search, a leashed police dog bit a 46-year-old Victoria woman who was laying in the bushes. The woman, who police say wasn’t a suspect in the break-in, was taken to hospital and later released after

receiving treatment for injuries to her arm. The biting incident was investigated by Victoria police detectives and forensic identification officers. The Office of the Police Complaint Commissioner was immediately notified. It provides civilian oversight when complaints involve municipal police in B.C. “VicPD regrets what happened to the woman and to all members of our community who may be affected by this,” Const. Mike Russell, Victoria police spokesperson, said in a statement.
