Council considers borrowing $15 million KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

PAUL RUDAN/THE MIRROR

Let the show begin, says city councillor Andy Adams as he kicks back in one of the new Tidemark Theatre seats. The brick fundraiser for the theatre’s 25th anniversary campaign was a huge hit and now theatre supporters are being asked to sponsor the seat replacement program for $500 a chair.

Sit back, relax, on a comfy seat with your name on it With the cash for the “nuts and bolts” and “bells and whistles” secure, it’s time to think about comfort, says Andy Adams. The veteran city councillor is an ardent supporter of the Tidemark Theatre and is doing his part for the theatre’s 25th anniversary campaign. It started with the Adams family buying a $100 brick to support the ambitious upgrade project,

and now they have sponsored one of the new theatre seats for $500. “The capital fundraising still needs to continue to meet the society’s goals and vision to make the Tidemark a first class facility,” he said. “I would like to thank all those who have already contributed, but ask for those who have bought a brick to consider moving up to a chair.”

The anniversary fundraiser set to raise more than $600,000 to upgrade the theatre’s lighting and online ticket buying, to buy a new projection system, and to replace all the old seats. The “T25 Campaign” has already secured its major funding partners with $250,000 from the city and $153,000 each from the Island Coastal Economic Trust and the Coast Sustainabil-

ity Trust. As well, public donations have brought in more than $95,000. The final touches are the new comfy seats. “Downtown revitalization has been a key component of my time on council. The Tidemark Theatre is the entertainment centre and anchor to the cultural and arts precinct downtown,” Continued on A2

Council endorsed a water and sewer budget Monday that assumes the city would have to borrow up to $15 million to complete the projects. The plan contains five major water projects: a water intake system (part of BC Hydro’s John Hart upgrade); a water main renewal; a water booster pump station; a main chlorine facility upgrade; a Beaver Lodge reservoir expansion; as well as four sewer projects. “Projects are funded from water and sewer user fees, water and sewer accumulated surplus reserves, debt, grants and DCCs (development cost charges) specific to those utility funds,” said Laura Ciarniello, the city’s general manager of corporate services. “The plan includes all requests for capital work for the five-year period, however, many of these projects are un-funded so staff has assumed debt/borrowing from MFA (Municipal Finance Authority).” Coun. Claire Moglove said the city can’t afford to put off these expensive projects any longer. “Water and sewer are the number one and two services,” Coun. Claire Moglove said. “You turn on the tap, you get water. “You flush the toilet, things go Continued on A3

Man seriously hurt in head-on accident A 57-year-old Campbell River man suffered serious injuries in a head-on collision Friday afternoon. The accident occurred around 4:40 p.m. on the Island Highway, just south of 6th Avenue. According to Campbell River RCMP, the 57-year-old man was heading north on the highway in a 1990 Chevy pickup, when the truck crossed the centre line and collided head-on with a 1997 Dodge pickup. The driver of the Dodge, a 59-year-old local man, sustained minor injuries, but the other motorist had to be extricated from the cab by Campbell River firefighters. “His injuries were further exasperated by the fact that the truck had loose debris and a tire in the box which smashed into the cab of the pickup as a result of the collision,” said Cpl. Poppy Hallam in a news release. The man was taken by ambulance to Campbell River Hospital and later airlifted to Victoria General Hospital with suspected internal injuries. The accident closed the highway for about an hour. Police say alcohol was not a factor and the investigation is continuing to determine the cause.

Two men were injured, one seriously, after two pickups collided head-on late Friday afternoon. The accident occurred on the Island Highway, between 5th and 6th Avenues, and resulted in an hour-long road closure.

Director will accept nothing less than a referendum on boundary extension KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Regional Director Brenda Leigh wants the city to know the only way her constituents will consider joining the city is through a referendum. At last Thursday’s Strathcona Regional District Board meeting, Leigh said that she will accept nothing less. “There is no other way this will be considered,” Leigh said. At the meeting she put forth a motion, which was approved, that regional district “will accept nothing less” than a fair and democratic vote on the city’s proposal to extend its southern boundary into Area D. Leigh said her motion was to set the record

straight on a point raised by Campbell River City Manager Andy Laidlaw in a letter to Brian Reardon, chief administrative officer of the regional district. Laidlaw wrote in his letter that city council is prepared to hold a referendum for affected residents in Area D (Crawford Road area) although it is “above and beyond provincial requirements for the approval process.” Leigh disagreed. “It’s that (the letter) says it’s not required that I take issue with,” Leigh said. “The ministry of Community, Sport, Cultural Development says it is required. Minister (of Community, Sport, Cultural Development) Bill Bennett, Mr. Rear-

don, and myself met on Sept. 27 and were told that a democratic vote is required in the affected area of Area D and I want to re-affirm that through this motion. I don’t want to leave any doubt.” The city is proposing to extend its southern boundary in order to offer sewer services to the northern portion of Area D. The regional district had been working with the city to reach a deal where Area D properties could be hooked up to the city’s sewer service. However, that deal fell through last winter after the regional district turned down the city’s offer and the city pulled out of negotiations. Leigh said the

regional district couldn’t accept the city’s offer because the asking price was double what her constituents approved borrowing in a 2006 referendum. In September, the city proposed extending its boundary so it can provide sewer service to properties in Area D. The proposal would incor porate 1,000 properties from Jubilee Parkway south to Henry Road and would allow 2,400 residents to hook up to the city’s sewer service. The city has promised it will conduct a full consultation process and inform affected residents about service improvements and property tax changes if a referendum does go ahead.

away. Those projects being proposed are related to community growth and water supply and pressure.” The projects are also the most expensive the city has faced in years, coming in at around $50-$60 million. In the end, council approved the 2013-2017 water and sewer capital plans with a $15 million borrowing limit over a 15-year term. Council also authorized city staff to proceed with drafting a Loan Authorization Bylaw with the same $15 million limit over

15-years. The bylaw would be a blanket document allowing staff to apply to the Municipal Finance Authority to borrow money for any one of the projects contained in the water and sewer capital plan. However, staff would still need council to come forward with a motion specific to the project it would like to borrow funding for. Any borrowing of funds would also need the electors’ assent, possibly through a referendum. Also on Monday, council committed to a one per cent tax

increase to generate money for the city’s Capital Works Reserve, which funds new and replacements to capital infrastructure such as roads, equipment, and city facilities. Other actions council took on day one of the final portion of the city’s 2013 budget included: funding Centennial Pool and summer programs from the gaming reserve to the tune of $300,000 while $90,000 from the gaming reserve will go towards the Capital Works Reserve; funding downtown streetlights at a cost of $75,000 from the Capi-

tal Works Reserve; and requesting city staff investigate and report back on the possibility of taking $440,000 from the Community Works Fund for Willis and Petersen Road shoulder improvements.

Leading by example Thanks to $500 in fundraising by the Grade 7 Leadership Class at Ecole Phoenix, the Campbell River Hospital Foundation was able to buy a Oximeter for the matenity ward. Medical staff screen every newborn with the Oximeter to check for congenital heart defects that may not otherwise be immediately diagnosed. It is also used when staff administer oxygen to a newborn as too much oxygen can be destructive to the lung tissues.

Ratepayers raise a stink over Q Cove sewers KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

A spokesperson for a group of Quathiaski Cove ratepayers suggested the Strathcona Re gional District’s chief administrative officer resign. The group is frustrated by skyrocketing sewer system charges. Joe Duprey, owner of Quadra Island’s the Landing Pub in Quathiaski Cove, said at a regional board meeting T hursday after noon that the

101 proper ty owners hooked up to the island’s sewer system are fed up with waiting for answers as to why their sewer user fees have increased so substantially. “ We d e m a n d a n immediate rollback of the 2012 user fees increase,” Duprey said, noting an ongoing petition to lower the rates is circulating around Quadra and has so far been signed by 90 per cent of the sewer users. Sewer user fees for

residential homes have risen from $299 in 2011 to $692 in 2012 while the basic commercial rate has gone from $1,196 to $2,769. Charges for the school have increased from $7,774 to $17,997. Duprey and eight other ratepayers met w i t h B r i a n Re a rdon, the Strathcona Re gional District’s Chief Administrative Officer, in October and in November, and laid out a list of questions they want answered including why Quadra sewer users are pay-

ing so much. On Dec. 5, Duprey said he received an e-mail from then board chair Craig Anderson saying the ratepayers’ questions would be answered in a report early in the new year. Duprey said last week he was still waiting to hear back and frustrations are mounting. “Since Mr. Reardon is unable to work with us, maybe Mr. Reardon should consider resigning,” Duprey said at last Thursday’s board meeting, which

forced board chair Ted Lewis to declare a point of order and cut off Duprey’s criticism of individual staff members. Quadra area director Jim Abram pointed out that a report from Reardon, answering some of the ratepayers questions, was added to the board meeting agenda, however not everything was covered. Abram said the question of spreading out the sewer charges over the entire island, even to those property owners not using the sewer system, was rejected in Reardon’s report. Reardon explained that there is case law in B.C. that protects property owners from that type of taxation and that the board

should “not give serious consideration to (that) option.” Abram said the question of what the user fees would be if a private entity ran the sewer system was also not fully answered. Reardon said he would need to solicit proposals from private companies in order to provide those cost estimates. Abram predicted at a board meeting in October that the regional district would find angry residents on its doorstep in the absence of a timely solution. “We’re going to have a delegation of people here that are going to ream staff out, they already have to me... because of sewer charges and they’re not going down,” Abram said at the time.

Abram was speaking to a sewer expansion project that would have extended service to 53 properties in Quathiaski Cove. The project, however, did not garner enough support in what Abram has said was not a fair and accurate petition process. He added that had the project been approved, the additional property owners paying into the system could have pushed user fees down by roughly 40 per cent. Meanwhile, Duprey doesn’t understand why other electoral areas within the Strathcona Regional District are paying far less for similar service. “All we’re asking for is the same fair sewer rates enjoyed by other regions in this district,” Duprey said. He noted that residential sewer rates in Zeballos are $204, $216 in Sayward and $222 in Tahsis. “How are you able to come in around a $215 average and ours is $692?” Duprey asked. Lewis, the mayor of Zeballos, said only 17 households in the village are on a sewer system, but the service is also sold to the local First Nations. Lewis admitted the sewer system is in “a precarious situation as we speak. We’re trying to discuss how we can sustain it ourselves.” Zeballos is

Thief ‘shops’ for purses Attention female shoppers, forget about that “blue light” special for a moment and make sure your purses are secured. Between Jan. 9-22, Campbell River RCMP responded to five complaints of purses stolen from shopping carts. Purses were left unattended in both push carts and handheld carts for only seconds when the culprit grabbed them and fled. At least two of the five cases had video surveillance which is being examined for suspect identification. Police are asking the public to be mindful about leaving any valuables unattended in shopping carts as this is a crime of opportunity.

Suspect caught on video Mounties are looking for a man who robbed the 7-Eleven

convenience Saturday night. According to RCMP, the thief entered the store located on Dogwood Street at 2nd Avenue at 9:44 p.m. The man, who wore a hoodie and a ball cap, walked to the counter, produced a knife with a bright orange handle, and demanded money. He then fled on foot with an undisclosed amount of cash. A police dog was able to track the suspect for a few blocks, but then lost the scent. The robber is described as about 5’8”, with a medium build. He was wearing a black-coloured ball camp and hooded sweatshirt, blue jeans and white running shoes. Police are hoping to identify the culprit through surveillance video and are also asking the public for any assistance.

Thieves targeting valuable metal set their sights on the former Elk Falls mill site. On Jan. 23, around 11:30 p.m., police were called to a possible break and enter at the Catalyst mill site. When officers arrived, they noticed several breaches of the fence as well as valuable copper wire both inside and outside the fence line. Police set up a perimeter, but the suspects had already fled. Then on Saturday, at 3:15 p.m., police responded to a complaint from the John Hart Dam that someone had cut copper wires. Security on scene is keeping a closer eye on the area for thieves.

A home on Cambridge Road was entered through the locked patio door while the homeowner was out for only a few hours on Jan. 24. The culprit(s) rifled through drawers and appeared to be looking for jewelry. The investigation is still on-going. On Jan. 27, at 2:52 p.m., RCMP responded to a complaint of a break and enter on Passage View Drive. Entry was gained entry through a locked, side garage door. The thief targeted jewelry in bedrooms. The Forensic Identification Section attended and processed the scene and has developed some evidence.

noon hour on Jan. 5, at the marked crosswalk by Ricky’s Restaurant on Greenwood Street and 13th Ave. A man who uses a wheelchair was crossing the intersection when he was struck by a black minivan. According to police, the elderly female driver stopped and asked the man if he was okay. When he responded that he was “fine” the woman left the scene with no exchange of information. However, the man in the wheelchair does not have much feeling in his legs and did not realize his foot was broken until he went to the hospital the next day. The man does not believe the driver is trying to avoid the situation, he just needs to speak with her. The black minivan had a Veteran’s licence plate on it. Police are asking the driver of the minivan to please call the RCMP detachment.

Continued from A4 also on a parcel tax system. In Sayward, those who joined the sewer system paid the costs up front, including Sayward Futures Society which contributed $33,000, said Sayward Mayor John MacDonald. “How we keep it low is that we charged at the beginning and it’s a big cost to them,” MacDonald said. Tahsis Mayor Jude Schooner said infrastructure in Tahsis was already in existence, which has kept costs down in that community. The Quadra sewer system was originally private but then sold to the Comox Strathcona Regional District 13 years ago for just $1. The Strathcona Regional District took over in 2008 after it became a separate entity from the Comox Valley Regional District. The ratepayers and Abram will meet within the next 14 days to discuss the issue and try to come up with some creative solutions to lowering the sewer costs.

Myra Falls miners vote 99.5 per cent in favour of strike

KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Coun. Andy Adams attempted Monday to get council to commit to an all-weather field at Robron Park, a project that has been bounced around the city’s financial books for the past few years. Adams put a motion on the floor to move money around in the city’s parks and recreation budget to accommodate Robron improvements that have been on the city’s radar since the lacrosse box was put in two years ago. Adams wanted to shift $250,000 earmarked for the Big Rock Boat Ramp improvements from the 2014 budget and move it to 2015, then move $250,000 for the Maryland Road/Jubilee Seawalk extension from 2015 to 2016, and add in $250,000 alloca-

tions for an all-weather field at Robron in both the 2014 and 2015 budgets. “Councils have spent a couple hundred thousand doing Robron Park designs, I think it’s time to move on this project in whatever capacity we can,” Adams said during Monday’s budget planning meeting. “To not do it now and pushing it off to 2015 and 2016 would undoubtedly mean we’d have to do a new plan. We could get it done and move on so I can stop brow beating council. “This is what the community has asked for,” said Adams, referring to a recent Parks Plan survey that revealed the community’s top priority is Robron Park, followed by improvements to the city’s two public boat ramps. Council was considering funding the $1.7 million project through the city’s Fixed

Question: What can be done for

Answer: There are several ways to address crooked front teeth, but it depends on the degree of crowding. Severe crowding is often best treated with orthodontics (braces) to straighten the teeth. Moderate to mild crowding can also be treated with Invisalign, which utilizes clear trays that are custom made and move teeth gradually and gently. This can Dr. Joseph Schafermeyer be done at your family dental office. Another way to change the appearance of teeth is with composites. These are tooth-coloured resin fillings that are bonded to repair decayed, chipped, fractured, or discoloured teeth. They can also be used to close spaces between teeth, make teeth look longer, or change the shape or colour of teeth. They usually last several years, depend on how much bonding was done and oral/biting habits. Other options include porcelain veneers and crowns. These are thin layers of porcelain that are placed and bonded to prepared teeth. They can be used in situations where one wishes to change the shape, colour, or overall appearance of his or her teeth. They are very lifelike and can last for many years with proper care. In order to find out which treatment would work best for you, please speak to your dentist, or call us for an exam or free Invisilign consultation. If you have a question you would like answered please email Carmen@dogwooddental.com

Bargaining continues as Nyrstar and union officials attempt to avoid a strike Wednesday at the Myra Falls mine near Campbell River. On Friday, miners voted 99.5 per cent in favour of walking off the job if a new contract agreement is not reached. “Our local is in a strike position on Monday, following a 72-hour notice to the company,” said Shine Boyce, in a news release to members that appeared on the union’s website. “This does not mean that we will be on strike Monday. It means that we are in a legal position to strike.” Negotiations with Nyrstar were held Monday and yesterday. The strike vote was held after four meetings in two days failed to produce a new contract. The key issue is wages with miners believed to be looking for $3-$5 more per hour, based on comparable wages at other B.C. mines. Nyrstar officials have not yet commented on the strike vote. According to the company website, the Myra Falls operation – located approximately 90 kilometres west of Campbell River in Strathcona Provincial Park – employs 282 people. The mine produces zinc, copper and lead concentrates, along with silver and gold. According to Boyce, contract updates will be posted at the Union Hall in Campbell River as well as on the website www.CAWlocal. ca/3019.

Our View

Oh joy, it’s city budget time again So how much of a percentage tax increase can you stomach? Three? Two? One? None? Do you think you’re likely to get a zero per cent tax increase? Good, We say: Let’s see ‘cause you’re not. After Monday’s deliberations, if it can be done council was looking at a 2.89 per without a massive cent increase but that will likely tax hike change. We all remember last year’s budget which resulted in an attempted tax revolt led by the mayor. What? The mayor? Yes, the mayor.

He’s been fully involved in this year’s budget deliberations and there’s a little less belligerence coming from the mayor. Hopefully, he’s learned he needs to work with city councillors to achieve his legislative agenda. Last year, he got a lesson in democracy when he was on the losing side of a vote for a 3.6 per cent tax increase (7.1 per cent after reduced user fees are factored in). He didn’t take losing gracefully. The hue and cry that arose from some members of the public was not always the most eloquent but it was heartfelt and vociferous. That’s good.

The bottom line is we need taxes to pay for the services we receive from the city. Last year’s budget was considered a one-time thing in order to re-balance the city’s spending priorities after the loss of the cash cow that was the Catalyst-owned Elk Falls pulp mill. The adjustment has been made and now we’ll see how councillors intend to balance the books this year. All indications are they will have it all wrapped up this week, having started significantly earlier than previous years. And so far, the cacophony of outrage has not appeared...but there’s still time.

SPCA should run shelter It seems to be a done deal that the city has hired Coastal Animal Control Services of BC to oversee animal control, taking this over from the SPCA. It is a huge cost saving measure but I wonder how there can be such a huge difference in the quotes from CACS and the SPCA? I am very afraid that the city will just as quickly replace the existing SPCA with CACS which was mentioned in the article in the newspaper. The SPCA has served Campbell River patrons and animals for a very long time with true dedication to all the animals (and people) who have walked through the SPCA doors. I have volunteered at the SPCA for a few years and have so appreciated the loving care and the kindness shown to the animals. The staff strive to find homes for all the animals and, in the interim, make a huge effort to make their stay as comfortable as possible. The staff have worked under very difficult situations for a very long time as the building is often full to capacity and finances are tight relying on public donations. I always leave there knowing the best is done for all the creatures that enter the premises. Being part of the BCSPCA connection gives them the benefit of transferring animals if another shelter has avaiable homes. I am very afraid if the city does decide to go with CACS for a future shelter (or pound). Gone will be all the kind, friendly, caring, experienced staff for all the homeless animals. I am afraid, very afraid for all these animals. Nicky Good

Leftist discontent latches onto any movement it can

Alistair Taylor Out On A Limb @AlstrT editor@campbellrivermirror.com

The Idle No More Movement seems to be taking up where the Occupy movement of last year left off. They’re both being criticized as unfocused, nebulous protests that are hard to clearly define what they stand for. But there is something to them that goes beyond whatever issue they’re trying to push forward in the public agenda. Idle No More is generally about furthering the status of First Nations people in our society on the one hand and the tyranny of omnibus bills in Parliament that try to sneak unpalatable policy by mixing it into a hodge podge of legislative measures. The Occupy movement was opposed

to (according to Wikipedia) “social and economic inequality, greed, corruption and the perceived undue influence of corporations on government.” They both attracted broadbased, outside support, including Idle No More, even though it is a First Nations movement. They’re both attracting like-minded supporters who fall on the lefthand side of the political and social spectrum. Now, the Idle No More movement is probably in danger of being co-opted by this hazy mass of malcontents but that’s better than being ignored. I’m not going to debate the specifically-Native aspect of Idle. What I’m interested in is the attraction these

protests have for that left-of-centre support group that shows up at these protests. I’d put it to you that they have this belief that something is wrong but there’s a sense of powerlessness to change it. The late NDP leader Jack Layton captured that sentiment with his moving post-mortem letter to Canadians on Aug. 20, 2011 in which he expressed a desire for young Canadians to work for a better world. Layton believed in their power to “change this country and this world. There are great challenges before you, from the overwhelming nature of climate change to the unfairness of an economy that excludes so many from our collective wealth, and the

changes necessary to build a more inclusive and generous Canada. “I believe in you. Your energy, your vision, your passion for justice are exactly what this country needs today. You need to be at the heart of our economy, our political life, and our plans for the present and the future.” Sounds like Occupy and Idle to me. Dog days...Meanwhile, it’s interesting that city council has decided to separate the animal control function from the SPCA’s animal shelter role. This is something I drew attention to last September after the impounding of a pit bull by the SPCA. The enforcement role didn’t seem to sit well with them.

This is democracy BC Liberal style I

n a couple of weeks we finally return to the Legislature in Victoria. It is almost nine months after we last sat. We do not expect to be there for much more than one month this time. This is democracy, B.C. style under the BC Liberals; a government that will try to do anything to avoid being held accountable, but spends huge amounts of public money on advertising trying to convince citizens it is doing a great job. The latest clear effort to bypass the elected members of the Legislature was the introduction of the bill which will finally get rid of the HST and allow a return to the PST. Despite having given assurances by the government that this bill would be introduced in the upcoming legislative session and therefore subject to discussion, last autumn we were notified by a media release

from the government’s cratic procedures. communications Instead of using the office, that the bill will Legislature, the Prenow be made public mier’s office gave the four months late and job over to the comnot in the Legislature. munications departThe way a parliament.

We will be bringing in legislation which would mean all government advertising has to be vetted by the Auditor General. I believe the only reason the Legislature is having an abbreviated session is that the government has to table a budget, and to break that Legislative requirement just a couple of months before the election would be one step too far. However, it will be very good to be back in Victoria to raise the concerns of our communities, which have not been heard by the government for nine months. Some of the issues I’ll be talking about are the worries that school boards are having about trying to fund pay increases out of already strained budgets; the lack of support available to families whose children – both young and adult – have special needs; the increase in raw log exports at the cost of jobs in B.C.; the degradation

of our streams and waterways; the lack of real jobs in the pilot jobs plan; the increasing costs of ferries, of MSP and of Hydro. And of course I’ll be questioning just why it has taken so long to move back to the PST when it took just a few months to bring in the HST. I’ll also be raising the issues around my critic portfolio, as shadow for the Minister of Children and Family Development: social workers with unmanageable caseloads, the new $192m computer system that doesn’t work properly and children’s rights.

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 30, 2013 | CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR |

Cost recovery deal best option Hopefully the residents of Area D will view any boundary extending proposals from the Campbell River Municipality and Council with a healthy degree of skepticism and caution. I find it curious that Council and the Strathcona Regional District were unable to negotiate a service agreement for sewer, as we currently have two that I know of. One for water and one for fire protection. I wonder if the city is trying to regain more than just the actual cost of supplying sewer services and is perhaps looking for increased revenue streams instead. As I understand it, the costs of running Campbell R ive r ’s m u n i c i p a l operation appear to be quite high when compared to similar jurisdictions. The failing septic systems are a serious issue for the residents of Area D. Long term, hooking up to Campbell River sewer through a

cost recovery service agreement seems to make the most sense from an economic stand point for northern Area D residents. This option would also provide benefit to the municipality/community as a capital works projects and ongoing service/maintenance fees. Sadly, the current council has rejected this unless we become part of the Municipality and accept their bylaws and tax regime. This feels a little like an ultimatum, especially when the community is vulnerable with this issue. I would suggest that compact systems provide a much cheaper solution short term; or, just wait for a new council to be elected that is interested in discussing the benefit to both jurisdictions of a cost recovery service agreement. Most residents I talk to within the Campbell River Municipality have expressed concern or dissatisfaction with council and

when I tell them what I pay for taxes in Area D their blood begins to boil. I doubt this council will survive another election cycle in their current configuration. Resolving this issue long ter m will be expensive whichever way Area D residents decide to go. However, the long term liabilities/costs likely associated with becoming part of the Municipality and potential loss of our rural setting already has me cringing. All northern Area D residents need to collectively put on their thinking caps, inform themselves and decide what type of future community lifestyle we want or someone might do it for us. Perhaps this note is premature and presumptuous. I just don’t want us to wake up a few years down the road with a much larger than necessary hole in our pockets and a pole peeling plant or worse for a neighbor. Pete Laing

Downtown to get spruced up KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Part of the downtown core will get an overhaul, council decided at Monday’s budget planning meeting. The $4.08 million city project, aimed at transforming the St. Ann’s block, will complement work being done by Seymour Pacific to build a new five-storey head office building on five lots that border Alder, Dubeau, and Beech streets as well as St. Ann’s Road. Coun. Claire Moglove said the project is vital to community’s success. “This is a game changer for Campbell River,” Moglove said. “If we’re going to change our downtown, if we’re going to revitalize our downtown – and our downtown is the heart of the city – then this project has to go forward and this will change Campbell River for the better.” The project involves upgrades to underground

services such as sewer, water and storm systems as well as above ground components like sidewalks, streetlights, trees, walkways and public open spaces. The city’s goal is to connect the waterfront at Robert Ostler Park to the park space at City Hall. Conceptual plans call for the transformation of Dubeau Street (the lane behind Shoppers Row) into a pedestrian boulevard and turning parking spaces into public spaces for things like farmers markets and community events. The project will be funded within the 2013-2017 financial plan as follows (costs are estimates): ■ Water main upgrades-$517,000 through the water operating accumulated surplus ■ Sewer main upgrades-$365,000 through the sewer operating accumulated surplus ■ Storm drain upgrades-$767,000 through the Storm Drain Parcel Tax

Mime melds Chaplin and Jackson B

lending the comical qualities of a Charlie Chaplin with the mime techniques of a Marcel Marceau and the smooth moves of a Michael Jackson, Dianna David’s movement/storytelling act and workshop will surprise and engage all ages: kids, youth, adults and “mature” adults at the Quadra Community Centre on Sunday, Feb. 24 at 2:30 p.m. The afternoon full of magical fantasy will include two distinct parts: a 45-minute performance as David presents one of her characters, “Meena Myna the Mime Magician,” a charming and dazzling display of her fascinating ability to move like a panther as she controls props and tells story through mime. Then, following a short intermission, David will put on a 60-minute fun workshop which will include mime, dance and contact juggling, no experience required. This hour is open to any interested audience members. An area of the floor will be cleared space provided for participation or chairs for watching. Lots of interest from young people is expected. Born and raised in Edmonton, Alberta, this first generation Filipino-Canadian

Meena the Mime Magician will perform and conduct a workshop on miming, juggling and dance at the Quadra Community Centre on Feb. 24.

started her performing career at the early age of six years as an incredibly gifted dancer. Fusing her love of dance with her cultural heritage, David has been actively involved for 20 years as a performer, choreographer and artistic director for the dance group The Philippine Barangay Performing Arts Society. David’s career path has had its share of twists, turns and surprises. Graduating from the University of Alberta in 2000 with a BSc. in Mechanical Engineering, she landed an engineering

job in San Francisco, where she encountered the Bay Area’s finest Hip Hop dance groups and theatre companies. In her spare time, she performed in several dance/theatre productions, acted in a full length movie and played the lead role in the stage show, “Rocket Girl” for the Thunderbird Theatre Company of San Francisco. David decided to pursue her theatrical career in 2003, attending the Clown Conservatory at San Francisco Circus Center under the direction of world renowned Jeff

Raz. She then studied physical theatre at the School of Physical Theatre with Ron East in London, England. David’s message is one of tolerance of differences and acceptance of others. Interested in sharing her love of artistic expression, she started a group called “Expressive Devotion” aimed at reaching out to the youth community by empowering them through dynamic workshops in order to help them find their own artistic vision. During the 2010 Olympics, David and her creative partner Charity Zapanta pro-

A21

duced a festival called “I Heart Van Art,” to bring together other artists and celebrate the city. David’s talent was noticed and she received a grant to create her present movement/storytelling acts which she has been touring to schools around BC for the last several years. Thanks to the sponsorship of a generous community member, Quadra Cultural Committee will offer this performance to families “by donation.” Single adult tickets will be $10 at the door. For more information, call 250-285-3560.

Exhibit celebrates women The Campbell River Women’s Centre is gearing up for its 6th annual Public Art Exhibition. “Celebrating Women 2013.” This is a non-juried art show whose aim is to celebrate women and to explore their many and varied connections to the world around them. The Centre is inviting artists and members of the greater community to come together to express and share their creative vision by submitting original art for an exhibition that will be shown at the Tidemark Theatre art gallery between Feb. 20 and March 12.

Submissions need to be in by February 19th. In addition, leading up to the exhibition, the Women’s Centre will be hosting art workshops for women who want to explore their creativity and create a piece of original art for submission to the show. In this year’s workshops women will explore the transformative by creating butterflies. Workshops will be held on today between 1-3 p.m. Two evening workshops will also be held on Wednesday, Feb. 5 and Feb. 8 between 6-8 p.m. For more information about submitting art to the exhibit or registering for the workshops, call the Centre at 287-3044 or e-mail Hwomenscentre@shawcable.com

New equipment for skills training at North Island College The government of B.C. is investing more than $662,000 in new skills training equipment at North Island College. The funding is part of a $17-million provincewide Skills and Training Plan investment to support public post-secondary institutions to upgrade equipment and put the latest tools in the hands of B.C. students. Equipment purchases and replacements at each institution are based upon a review and analysis of exist-

ing inventory, current and future program and industry requirements, and current government priorities to provide skills training that is aligned to the needs of the economy in each region. Institutions also will pursue partnerships with local industries and other stakeholders to purchase or donate equipment, ensuring students continue to train on the latest equipment being used in the workplace. The type of equipment slated for new

purchase or replacement at North Island College â€“ unless otherwise donated from industry partners â€“ includes a variety of industrial vehicles for the heavy duty equipment technician and commercial transport mechanic programs, shop pieces and light vehicles for the automotive service technician garage, and machinery for the metal fabricator (fitter) program. John Yap, Minister of Advanced Education, Innovation and Te c h n o l o g y, s a i d ,

â€œUnder the BC Jobs Plan and our Skills and Training Plan, weâ€™re taking action to provide education and training opportunities aligned with the needs of our economy. This provincial investment, coupled with contributions from private industry partners, will ensure students are training on the same calibre of equipment their employers will be asking them to work on after graduation.â€? Don McRae, MLA for Comox Valley, added, â€œWe recognize the vital

role these students play in the future of the province and especially the north Island. Our gover nment is committed to putting the latest equipment in the hands of postsecondary institutions provincewide.â€? Dr. Jan Lindsay, president, North Island College, said, â€œWe are excited to have received this funding as it has allowed the college to purchase specific pieces of equipment and training tools that our students will be using when they enter

the workforce. The ability to modernize our shops ensures that North Island College continues to provide relevant education to the residents of the north Island.â€? Quick Facts: NIC has received over $10.1 million in capital investments from government since 2001, including: â– $4.1 million for construction of a new skills development and trades training facility in Courtenay. â– $1.35 million for a teaching kitchen facil-

ity at the Port Alberni campus. â– $553,000 for the purchase and installation of 14 portables in Comox. â– In August 2012, the B.C. government announced $652,000 in capital funding to go toward improving and upgrading facilities at North Island College. â– North Island College received $507,000 in one-time funding announced in April 2012 - http://ow.ly/ h8M00 - to offer skilled trades-related training in the region.

Glenford and Edith Bellrose. Survived by his loving wife of 54 years, Diane; children Cindy (Calvin), Rodney (Jackie), and Shelly; grandchildren Jamie, Karena (Bruce), Andrew, Cody, Levi, Morgan (Kenzie), Colton, Dillon (Joelene) and Natasha; great grandchildren Talica Ann, and Olive Rose; siblings Beryl (Gerry), Darryl, and Carol (Chuck); extended family Delvin (Sheila), Connie (Laverne), Linda (Glenn), Debbie (Dan), Perry (Melanie) as well as Auntie Vivian and numerous nieces, nephews and other family. Don was born in Saskatchewan and lived the majority of his life there working his passion â€“ farming the family farm. Over the years, he was also a volunteer ďŹ reman, machinery dealer/ salesman, telephone line man, electrician, hotel owner/operator - there wasnâ€™t a challenge he wouldnâ€™t tackle. He knew how to work hard, ďŹ x anything, was a â€œJack of all Tradesâ€?. He and Diane retired to Campbell River in 2002. He never lost his strength, courage, faith, sense of humor, integrity, kindness and willingness to help others and was a great inspiration to many even though he battled serious health issues from the age of 29 years. His strength and courage was admirable and is a huge part of his legacy. His favorite time was that spent with his family and friends sharing stories (especially about curling, ball, &golf), music and visiting. To know him was to love him. A celebration of Donâ€™s life will be held at 2:00pm, Thursday, January 31, 2013 at the United Church, 415 Pinecrest, Campbell River, B.C., with lunch to follow. A memorial service will be held at a later date in Saskatchewan. In lieu of ďŹ‚owers, donations in Donâ€™s memory may be made to Camerynâ€™s Cause for Kids Society, 2520 Spring Road, Campbell River, BC, V9W 5K8

Five generations of gals, from the same Campbell River family, are sure happy hockey’s back. In the picture are great-great gramma Penuel McKay, great gramma Claudia McKenzie, gramma Heather Alexander, and mom Brittany Alexander holding baby Linden (yes after Trevor). Also in picture are Madison and Lainie McReynolds great granddaughters of Penuel, wearing their Canuck tootoos. Penuel, age 91, loves to watch the ‘Nucks on TV. So yes, these seven fans are really happy to have the NHL back and to have family hockey get-togethers again.

Jalen Price of the Peewee A Tyees celebrates his second goal of the game against the Comox Valley Chiefs. Price scored four times leading Campbell River to an 8-6 home win.

Price-powered Tyees roll A four-goal game by Jalen Price powered the KLP Construction Peewee A Tyees to an 8-6 victory over the Comox Valley Chiefs on Saturday at the Rod Brind’Amour Arena. After the Chiefs opened up a 1-0 first period lead, Price quickly responded for the Tyees to tie the game 1-1, and then gave his team a 2-1 lead by the end of the frame. Price would notch two more in the highscoring exhibition contest. Jacob Hartley also led Campbell River’s offensive attack with two goals and an assist,

Above, Seth Parker flattens his man at centre ice; pictured right, Tyee Brendan Almer gets knocked down but still manages to make a nice pass.

while River Fahey also had a three-point game with a goal and two helpers.

The Tyees’ next home game is noon Saturday versus Oceanside Generals. On Sunday,

the peewees travel to Powell River. On Feb. 9, 4 p.m., they take on Nanaimo at home.

Nordic, or cross-country, skiing is a great way to get out and enjoy the outdoors in winter. It is also good exercise and can be enjoyed by people with many different abilities. On Saturday, Feb. 16, Vancouver Island Society for Adaptive Snowsports (VISAS) and the Strathcona Nordic Ski Club are holding a Learn to Nordic Ski Day for people with conditions such as paraplegia, amputations, visual impairments, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, brain injuries, and more. The aim of this clinic is to teach people with physical disabilities to nordic ski – either standing up or using a sit ski. “This is a great opportunity to try this activity at little cost and in a supportive environment with volunteer instructors. Complete beginners and those with some experience are welcome,” says Sue, an instructor with VISAS. For sit skiing, you must have reasonable upper body strength to be able to push yourself along in a sit ski. Wheelchair users must be able to transfer with minimal assistance. Sit skiing may also be appropriate for people who are not wheelchair-dependent, but whose mobility is limited by lower limb problems or balance. Standing skiers must be able to stand and walk at least 400 metres with or without walking aids but without assistance from another person. The cost is $20, which includes insurance, trail pass, equipment and instruction. To register, contact Sue Bloxsome sbloxsome@gmail.com. The deadline for registration is Feb 11.

Bowl for Breath hits quarter-century milestone T he 25th annual Bowl for Breath takes place Feb. 9-10, at the Campbell River Bowling Centre. The event helps to raise funds and promote the awareness of cystic fibrosis. More than $200,000 has been raised for Cystic Fibrosis Canada through the Bowl for Breath. There have been tremendous developments to improve the quality of life for people with cystic fibrosis. Unfortunately, a cure for this devastating, inherited disease still has not been found. Cystic fibrosis is the most common fatal genetic disease affecting Canadian children and young adults. Cystic fibrosis causes a build-up of thick mucus in the lungs leading to severe respiratory problems. Meanwhile, mucus and protein build-up in the digestive tract results in extreme difficulty in digesting and absorbing adequate nutrients from food. Elementary and secondary students can participate in the Bowl for Breath. There are several shifts to choose from and each participant bowls two game. Students can collect pledges or make a minimum $10 donation to
