Tickets are only $10 each. Second prize is a Broil King Signet 90 LP barbecue; third prize a $150 gift certiﬁcate for concrete or gravel; and fourth prize is a World Famous six-man tent.

The provincial government is providing $91,000 to the Cariboo Regional District and $22,000 to the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast Invasive Plant Committee to control the spread of invasive plants. The funding will be invested in activities such as raising public awareness, surveying invasive plant populations and actively treating high-priority sites to control the spread of invasive plants. Invasive plants are not native to a particular ecosystem and have the potential to displace long-established species. They can cause considerable economic and environmental damage. Invasive plants may disrupt natural ecosystems, reduce biodiversity, increase soil erosion, alter soil chemistry and adversely affect commercial crops.

City rebranding meets stiff opposition Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer City council heard loud and clear Tuesday many residents do not accept the idea of branding Williams Lake with the slogan “Welcome to the Republic of Life.” Around 100 residents, including four former mayors and a councillor, filled city hall for council’s regular meeting to drive home the point. Two weeks ago during a committee of the whole meeting Taiji Brand Group unveiled the branding package to city council and staff. Once images that accompanied the marketing package, including a logo and the slogan were made public, people started contacting mayor and council, launching opinions on Facebook sites, writing letters to the editor and doing radio interviews to let people know they were unhappy. Resident Ken Wilson in a radio interview said perhaps “Willy’s puddle” was a better slogan option. Wilson also addressed council

Tuesday, saying many people in the community are upset about the branding project. “Many people are upset at city council for not involving the taxpayers,” he said. “Taxpayers are saying the cost ($41,000) was too high and that there are people in Williams Lake that could have come up with something more palatable.” He alleged the Williams Lake and District Chamber of Commerce wasn’t consulted, however, Mayor Kerry Cook clarified that chamber president Jason Ryll was part of the working group throughout the branding project. Wilson quoted a former mayor saying the logo, meant to resemble a belt buckle, looked like a shield. He asked for a show of hands from the chamber and around 90 indicated they were opposed to the brand. Eight, all under the age of 40, indicated they liked it. Prior to Wilson’s delegation, Carol Taiji of Taiji Group made a public presentation. At the onset, Taiji said coming

up with a brand is never a perfect process. “A lot of effort was made to create the level of engagement that was appropriate,” she said. A truism of branding is trying to reach a target audience. One of the discussions they had with Alan Madrigga (the city’s manager of economic development) was around community resilience and the desire to attract people who want to move to Williams Lake by choice. “We had a very specific target in mind. We’ve worked with many small communities and mid-sized communities and everybody is trying to retain and attract a young workforce,” Taiji said. To build a brand that speaks to that target audience requires a certain language and approach and it isn’t necessarily the same language used by people in the community. “Our group attached ourselves to the Republic of Life because during the entire process the group said we did not want to have a generic

brand. It felt like a poor investment for the city.” They were prepared to choose something that felt provocative. The group defined “republic” as a body of people freely engaged in the pursuit of a common passion. “No political overtones, nothing to do with people south of the border, it was just the notion of people determining their own future as individuals.” It was also meant to be a fun play on words to get people’s attention. At the same time it needs to work for everyone and that is the challenge, Taiji agreed. Mayor Cook told the crowd the item has received the most response. “It’s definitely brought a lot of strong feelings and huge response from people. I think there’s a lot of good to that because it shows how passionate people are about Williams Lake,” she said. See CITY Page A3

WLIB and Taseko sign Gibraltar Mines agreement Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer The Williams Lake Indian Band and Gibraltar Mines Ltd. have signed a Participation and Cooperation agreement with respect to Taseko’s Gibraltar copper-molybdenum mine northeast of Williams Lake. During a signing ceremony held at Sugar Cane community gym, Wednesday, Chief Ann Louie said the agreement will benefit both parties. “I have stated previously that we are here to stay. The projects we have to deal with are here on a temporary basis and have the potential to affect us for years after they are gone,” she said. Being good stewards of the land is a responsibility, she added. “WLIB has always stated it would seek agreements with companies who are in the position of extracting natural resources and have the potential to infringe on our aboriginal rights and title.” Gibraltar Mines transports its minerals and products through WLIB’s main reserve and alternate routes along Hwy. 97 across two other Northern Shuswap reserves. “Future plans for this mine affect us as well. Although the actual mine site itself is in Xat’sull stewardship area that is not the only area of impact created by the mine,” Louie said. The agreement addresses a variety of issues ranging from environmental management, employment and contracting, to economic benefits flowing from the operation of Gibraltar Mine. “The majority of our community members are youth and they must

have a chance of getting good paying employment so they can support their families.” Signing agreements gives the WLIB satisfaction that First Nations are being heard, especially in the area of environmental issues. The agreement is intended to establish a cooperative and mutually respectful working relationship which will allow both parties to meet their respective obligations and protect their rights, values and interests. Russell Hallbauer, president and CEO of Taseko, said he was honoured to enter into the agreement. “This is a generational business in terms of the opportunity it provides to everyone across the broad community,” he said. Taseko is very excited to be in the Cariboo and continuing to develop the mine at Gibraltar, along with participation from the WLIB. Thanking Louie for her leadership in reaching the agreement, Hallbauer said she has an eye for the future. “You have a vision for helping your people, particularly all the young people.” Mayor Kerry Cook

described Louie as a “leader amongst leaders,” and said the signing ceremony was about celebrating opportunities. “The leadership shown by Taseko and WLIB speaks volumes and fills my heart with hope that we have a solid future working together.” Cook also thanked Hallbauer for Taseko’s investment into Gibraltar and the community. The agreement shows leadership of chief and council and the understanding of the elders on how the future for young people must unfold, Cariboo Chilcotin Liberal MLA Donna Barnett said. “Sometimes it’s tough to stand up and make decisions, but the right decisions go a long way.” It also shows Taseko’s dedication into working with First Nations and communities to make life better, she said. “At the end of the day we remember one thing, respect. Respect for people’s territories, respect for their families and respect for that which they need to live in a world today that is sometimes complicated.” Joan Sorley, Cariboo Regional District Area

F director, congratulated chief and council. “The hope that is in this room is palatable and it is very exciting,” Sorley said. “Congratulations to Taseko and Gibraltar and all the hard work that has gone on from both sides.” Cariboo North MLA Bob Simpson commended WLIB’s willingness to embrace development on traditional territory while protecting the rights of future generations to benefit from that as well as to seek a sustainable way of developing resources. “It is a celebration and it is a move forward and I hope it’s the beginning of a very productive constructive relationship between WLIB and Gibraltar for the continuation and development of that mineral resource,” Simpson said. Special project coordinator and WLIB band Coun. Willie Sellars said mining is here to stay. “We have to embrace it and move forward in creating these opportunities businesses like Taseko and Mount Polley.” It won’t only benefit the WLIB, but the whole region, he added.

City wants more public consultation Continued From Page A1 A recommendation from the committee of the whole meeting suggested council adopt the branding package, but in light of the amount of feedback and the community saying it was not adequately consulted, Cook recommended following a public communication process, a report be brought back to council for further consideration. The motion was passed by council. Coun. Surinderpal Rathor was opposed. Looking around the room, Coun. Laurie Walters encouraged everyone sitting in the chambers to participate. “In some areas it’s not easy to get public engagement so I see this as an opportunity for people to get involved,” Walters said. “There were other ideas that can be revisited, but there might be people here today that have other ideas.” Coun. Danica Hughes said the word “cowboy” bothers her because it labels people, and that she preferred the word “ranching heritage.” “We have about 20-plus

When I think about the republic of life I don’t know what it means.” She also said she has an issue with the definition of republic provided by Taiji Group, and suggested: “Williams Lake is a body of people free-

ly engaged in the pursuit of diverse passion.” The concept is not comprehensive yet, she said, adding she was not willing to support it until there’s more in front of council. Coun. Geoff Bourdon likened the controversy to the delivery of the

HST. “I will be looking into the way we deliver in communication from here moving on. I participated in the process from the very start and it’s a good process,” Bourdon said. He cautioned: “It’s no benefit to us to have

nothing. Let’s not defeat the entire thing, and let’s not forget the target audience. It’s a certain demographic that we’re trying to attract.” Coun. Ivan Bonnell acknowledged the community’s input and reminded the process started in 2011 with the

business and attraction survey. Branding was one of 45 recommendations that came out of the study. “Everybody doesn’t support the brand itself, but I do think everybody supports the concept of having some sort of marketing or advertising campaign to achieve the objective of business expansion and attraction to our community,” Bonnell said. “How we define who we are is very difficult as can be displayed here, not only for the last two weeks of this discussion, but for those who have lived here a life time.” He also encouraged the public to participate in the process so the city can come up with a package to market “who we are and what we have to offer.” Coun. Sue Zacharias said she loves the branding package, describing it as funny, but said she’s also stuck on the word “republic.” “I want to see the project go forward and if we can now have more public input it would be great. I think we can come up with something that’s fantastic that will set Williams Lake apart.

There’s so much we have to offer.” She suggested 80 per cent of the branding package is “good.” The city needs to work on the other 20 per cent. Coun. Surinderpal Rathor voted against moving forward with the branding project and said he opposed the fact the city has paid $41,000 to Taiji Group for leading the project. “I want the community to know I voted against it from day one,” Rathor said, adding he doesn’t want the city spending anymore on branding. In the June 12 edition, the Tribune noted the city approved spending up to $45,000 to hire Taiji Brand Group to complete a place brand project for the city. Tuesday city staff confirmed the motion was passed unanimously, although Coun. Geoff Bourdon was absent from the June 5 meeting. In his report to council on June 5, Madrigga also noted a select tender (request for proposal) process was completed with four companies that specialize in community or place branding work.

ment is accepted it will end the long debate. Councillors Geoff Bourdon and Danica Hughes noted they did not support the new agreement. Hughes said she would like to see the city renewing the agreement cost of $579,221, established during mediation process. Coun. Surinderpal Rathor said while he supported the motion it wasn’t an easy decision. “I was against the

whole thing from day one, but the writing was on the wall,” he said. Rathor said the new fire hall was built to serve the city and the rural fringe, adding the cost of fire service increased to pay the debt financing. He suggested the city was “bullied” by the CRD. In the end it was the fear of losing $700,000 that resulted in his vot-

City offers CRD alternate fire protection agreement Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer The city is offering a five-year rural fire protection agreement to the CRD for an annual cost of $534,494. Council hopes the agreement will be considered April 12 at the CRD regular board meeting, however, Mayor Kerry Cook reported Tuesday evening during the regular council meeting that the CRD rural caucus met to con-

sider the offer and is recommending that it be approved. In October the city forwarded a letter to the CRD stating it supported a five-year agreement based on total taxable assessed values for all property classes in the city and the rural fringe. Their agreement would have an option for five-year renewal. The CRD went to referendum asking for permission to requisition money from the rural

residents based on that formula and received an overwhelming endorsement. In December, however, after a majority vote of council, the city contacted the CRD to say it was reneging on the agreement and that it wanted to enter into a one-year agreement and enter into discussions for a renewal of fire protection services. As a result, the CRD filed legal action against the city. A court injunc-

tion granted a fourmonth agreement, that would expire at the end of April. In March, after both parties agreed to mediation, a one-year agreement was established at a cost of $579,221. Cook said the newest offer emerged after a four-hour in-camera meeting held April 6 at city hall. If accepted the new agreement will begin Jan. 1, 2014. It will be based on net residential

assessment for operating and capital costs, with an annual $31,500 payment going toward debt servicing costs. For 2011, the city collected $727,000 for fire protection services from rural residents. The total cost of the service for the city is $2.07 million of which $512,500 is for the loan repayment for the new fire hall. “We have spent a lot of time on this issue of fire protection,” Cook said, noting if the agree-

Potential agreement ‘good news’ Continued From Page A3 “Yes in December I didn’t support the $556,000 whatever it was back then,” he said. “I hope I don’t hurt anyone’s feelings, but I figured either I gain what I can gain or I lose everything. That was the question in front of me.” Coun. Laurie Walters disagreed with Rathor’s “bullying” comment. “I didn’t see that from the very beginning. I am very pleased with what’s happened, recognizing that it still has to go to the board for final decision.” The agreement is “fair,” Walters said. “The residents in the rural fringe area do work, live and play in Williams Lake and we have a lot of business we do with the CRD. Looking to the future I see all the things we’ve

done to date and with new projects working forward.” It’s a “win, win,” and nobody’s coming out of it on either side without

making concessions, Walters added. Cook expressed thanks to her colleagues that changed their stance so an agreement

could be reached. “This is good news and I’m looking forward to hearing the final decision on Friday,” she said.

S. Lakeside project to go ahead

What the heck is ‘year end’ money?

ood news for South Lakeside! Early budget approval was given to the South Lakeside widening project, and it is now going to tender. This has been on the books for a few years, and I’m very proud that as a result of strategic financial planning over the last few budgets, it will go ahead this summer, without the need for long-term borrowing to add to our debt. From the This Mayor’s project Chair will improve Kerry Cook s a f e t y, with a repaved road surface and additional lanes at the Hodgson Road and Pioneer Drive intersections. It will also improve accessibility, with a new pedestrian/bike lane from Hodgson Road to the Seventh Day Adventist Church. Work is planned to begin in June. The city will provide regular communication updates as the work proceeds. We had a full house at the council meeting on Tuesday night regarding the branding issue before us. Never before have I received feedback from such a diverse group of people. The people of Williams Lake are passionate about our city, and that is good news. The new recommendation allows for the opportunity for people to continue providing input. A brand must have community support to move forward, so please make sure your voice is heard! We had a very positive announcement between the Williams lake Indian Band and Gibraltar/Taseko Mines as they signed a Participation and Co-operation Agreement. This is a great example of what’s possible when there is a willingness to move forward. I respect the leadership from the chief and council, and I’m excited about the future. As Chief Ann Louie says, mining is here to stay, and so is the Williams Lake Indian Band. The agreement means both the mine and the community will work together to create opportunities for the future. Congratulations! Kerry Cook is the mayor of Williams Lake.

olitical parties have long abused your tax dollars for political purposes. It’s become accepted practice for the governing party to engage in preelection partisan advertising, sponsor gala events that only the privileged few can attend, and dole out money in the weeks leading up to an election. In Opposition, the BC Liberals accused the BC NDP of “shoveling money off the back of a truck” heading into the 1 9 9 7 MLA election. Musings Over the past two Bob Simpson weeks, the Liberals have been doing the same thing in an overt attempt to buy back votes with your money. The hyper-political Bollywood gala this past weekend cost taxpayers over $11 million dollars for little to no benefit. The rationale used by various ministers is that the money they’re doling out in advance of the May 14th election is “year end money” from various ministries. It’s a bizarre rationalization for two reasons: 1) the government books were supposed to be “closed” on March 31; and, 2) the government reported a deficit of over $1.2 billion for 2012/13. There is no “year-end money” when you close your books with a deficit. Another troubling aspect of this abuse of your tax dollars is that there was no transparency or fairness in deciding which organizations received this money. Calls were made to a few organizations asking if they had “shovel-ready projects,” and photo-ops were quickly arranged. This isn’t to say that the organizations receiving pre-election cheques weren’t deserving, but there shouldn’t be a dime of taxpayer money spent without a transparent application or bidding process. Maybe it’s time B.C. had a legislative budget officer to keep tabs on party politicians and to publicly report on any political abuses of your tax dollars. We may never be completely rid of this vote-buying farce, but additional oversight could go some way toward keeping governing parties in check. Bob Simpson is the Independent MLA for Cariboo North.

Our Viewpoint

Too much demand Only the severely environmentally challenged or the extremely naive can believe that oil and natural gas pipelines will not be making their way through northwest B.C. to the coast. Granted they will make a lot of noise and definitely have a role to play, but like it or not, those Alberta and eastern B.C. energy resources are coming west. While the anti-everything crowd may be successful in shutting down Enbridge — highly unlikely — but possible, once Enbridge pulls up stakes another company will come. There is simply too much increasing demand, too much money and ultimately, too much economic upside for someone else to not pick up where Enbridge could leave off. The big question there is will it be a Canadian company? Regardless, should the anti-pipeliners gain enough momentum with their political puppets and oil and gas pipelines are quashed, the oil will still come.

By rail or by road, that oil will come. As mentioned, the anti-pipeline folk do have an important role to play. It is a beautiful sight and a testament to our great country that the anti-pipeliners are not only allowed, but actually urged to voice their opinions and concerns. They should be applauded for pulling apart pipeline plans in minute detail and demanding answers. They need to be commended for questioning everything and holding both the proponents and the assessors accountable. But at the end of the day, those resources, so intrinsically linked to our long-term economic and social wellbeing, will be shipped to the Far East through Northwest B.C. The only questions that remain is how and what. By pipeline, or by rail and road? Bitumen or refined? Stopping pipelines forever is only for the deluded, the gullible and the foolish. How and what we’ll ship is for the realists. - The Northern View/Black Press

More Viewpoints The people of the region Question of the week are the ‘True Gold’ What is your Editor: Republic of Life? What is going on in city hall? I don’t think the general population of Williams Lake is aware of how and where our tax dollars are being spent. And what makes council think they are going to attract people to Williams Lake by paying to have outsiders tell us how, when and where to run our businesses. I moved to Williams Lake in 1950 and still consider myself as a “Johnny come lately” and that very simply means I have great respect for the folks that stayed after the Gold Rush days of the middle 1860s. The people of the Cariboo, Chilcotin, Coast area and their families are the “True Gold” that stayed

settling a tough hard country and bringing up good honest hard working people. The reason I stayed here is because I like it here, especially the people. They are in my opinion the greatest collection of individuals and characters in Canada and quite possibly the world. I believe they would allow me to say they are here for the same reason they like it and do their own thing on their own time. And no one is going to tell them how where or when to run their ranches, cow/calf operations, stump ranches, logging shows, sawmills, guiding operations, guest ranches, general stores, road contractors, building contractors or roofers — the list is long and includes every last man in business and quite prob-

ably the entire population. As for city council I am not sure how much of the tax payer’s money they have spent or how much more they wish to waste. Seems to me they are saying all the stores and businesses, including major stores, are not capable of running their own businesses. Perhaps council has more than they can handle just running the city, the job I believe they were elected do. And by the sounds of things coming from their hallowed offices have people that needed something to do. It may be easier to pay them to leave than try to run other people’s business.

If trees were capitalists they would have to mine from under their own feet the minerals and resources they need for life and ship them away. If trees were capitalists they would

have to sell the water they capture from snow and rain and suffer poverty of water in drought years. If trees were capitalists they would charge us for capturing carbon and then sell us the oxygen they make and we need. Luckily trees build sustainable

This a follow-up to my ‘mad’ letter published in the Tuesday, April 9, Tribune. On Monday afternoon we met with several staff members at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex and once again we were delighted how helpful they are. Darryl had been working for several hours to get everything working again, Geoff Paynton, the director of community services, explained the intricacies of the equipment — far too high tech for the Gibraltar Room. They are working often on the equipment trying to scale it down and making it more user friendly. It is true, they are quite restricted with their funds, but they sure try to make the best of it.

Letters aLways weLcome

It was unfortunate that the equipment collapsed last Thursday, half an hour into the Paddling Film Festival. It has happened before, in the same way. We were told that the Banff Mountain Film Festival always brings their own back-up equipment, just in case. We will do the same thing. We already have the computer, we will get a good projector (right now we are using a borrowed one), and we will not have to send anyone home again. A big thank you again to the wonderful staff at the Gibraltar Room, to Cathy, Gary and Darryl especially. The distributor of the Paddling Film Festival was very understanding and let us re-schedule the festival for next Tuesday,

favourite part of the Williams Lake Indoor Rodeo?

April 16. And thank you to Tihol, my true partner and guide in my endeavours. I have to admit I am a bit amazed how passionate I feel about our Film Club. I love to bring culturally and socially engaging films and documentaries from all over the world to Williams Lake. I love to be able to use the proceeds to support the local chapter of the LDA, the Association for Students with Learning Disabilities, to provide one-on-one tutoring on a regular level. Thank you so much for all of your support — I am quite overwhelmed — and humbled. Krista Liebe Williams Lake Film Club

A late April Fool’s joke? Editor: I don’t know if this is for real or a late April Fool’s joke gone bad but the name makes Gordon Campbell’s “Heart Land” sound positively brilliant. If the city paid for the development of this name/logo … ouch. Have they heard of the “Emperor with No Clothes” or “The Music Man?” My gut tells me this is not a good fit for this community. What are all these committees for which each councillor is attached? The company should be told to go back to the drawing board or, better yet, save some money and form a

concerned citizens’ group for advising on this matter. It will contain people who have a vested interest in and feel for this community. Also, if they want some money for a further study, the city council should apply to the Liberal government before they hand all their money out. It will be good until at least the middle of May. Republic of anything sounds too south of the 49th parallel for this cowboy, and I’m not much of a cowboy. Rocco Catalano Williams Lake

Maranatha students do well at regional science fair

Garrett Shephard with his project Radios and Electromagnetic Fields.

Winners from Maranatha Christian School’s third annual science fair attended the School District 27 science fair in 100 Mile House in March, with many of them advancing to the regional science fair in Kamloops April 4-5. There were a total of 175 participants in the Kamloops competition and Maranatha students did a wonderful job representing their school at the district and regional levels. “These students did a fantastic job and had a wonderful time displaying their hard work,” says science fair co-ordinator Mandie Blusson. “At the regional’s they experienced hands on learning, participated in field trips and built friendships.” At the regional

competition two students placed second in their categories: Garrett Shephard with the experiment Radios and Electromagnetic Fields; and Dylan Alexandre with the experiment, Zoetrope. Two students placed third in their categories at regionals: Mitchell Blusson and Sebastian Gracia with their experiment Mass vs Distance; and Madison Blusson with the experiment, How Much is too Much. Two students also received awards of merit at regionals: Emily Ratz and Abby West with their experiment, Diabetes; and Gewn Rohls with the experiment Saline World. The following students attended the district competition in 100 Mile House: Mason Yochmans, Metal vs Liquid; Dylan Al-

exandre, Zoetrope; Mitchell Blusson and Sebastian Gracia, Mass vs Distance; Madison Blusson and Brooklyn Laukkanen, How Much is too Much; Martin Schmidt, Solar Power Energy; Jeff Vogt and Spencer Blois, Eye Tricks; Gewn Rohls, Saline World; Garrett Shephard, Radios and Electromagnetic Fields; Emily Ratz and Abby West, Diabetes; and Nathalie Sylvain, Which Wheat Flour has the most Gluten? Students Dylan

Alexandre; Mitchell Blusson and Sebastian Gracia; Madison Blusson; Gewn Rohls; Garrett Shephard; Emily Ratz and Abby West were selected to compete in Kamloops. “Every year Mara• • • • • •

Williams Lake’s Karen Yaworski guides her horse “Caz” around the first pole during the pole bending event this past weekend at Eagle View Equestrian Centre. The event was part of the Horse Versatility Competition, hosted Saturday and Sunday as part of the centre’s annual Horsin’ Around in the Cariboo competition.

Bowl for Kids Sake this weekend Greg Sabatino Tribune Staff Writer Williams Lake’s Big Brothers Big Sisters annual Bowl for Kids Sake happens this Saturday and Sunday at Cariboo Bowling Lanes. This year’s theme, in celebration of BBBS 100th centennial in Canada, will be a Big Birthday Bash. “We’re hoping participants take that theme and use their imaginations to come up with some crazy costumes in any way they choose,” said WLBBBS executive director Lorraine Levitt. MCs Cindy Nadeau, Mike Grace, Coun. Geoff Bourdon and Wendel Blois are sure to add some excitement to the event and keep participants on their toes and having fun throughout. “There will be lots of prizes given out through each time frame for things like first strike, first gutter ball and this year we’re going to have trivia questions based on our theme, so things that happened in 1913,” Levitt said.

“The first person to run up and answer that will get to pick a prize off our prize table.” Bowl for Kids Sake gets underway Saturday at 4 p.m., with more sessions following at 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. Sunday, bowling gets underway at 1 p.m. Teams must have registered prior to the weekend to participate. “It’s quite lively and exciting,” Levitt said. “The first game will be bowling straight, and then the second game will be cosmic bowling. “During the cosmic bowling we’ll have people bowling blindfolded, bowling between their legs, bowling while they sing O’Canada and doing all sorts of different, funny things through each event.” Players’ scores aren’t important, Levitt stresses but, having fun, is. “It’s all about laughing at each other and having a lot of fun,” she said. Bowl for Kids Sake is one of WLBBBS major fundraisers of

It’s that time of year again — the dirt will be hauled into the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex for 23rd Annual Williams Lake Indoor Rodeo. There’s no stop in the action throughout the weekend as rodeo performances, opening acts, special guests, vendors, bands and a dance help round out the weekend’s festivities. Stop by the rodeo office in the upper level of the Boitanio Mall to pick up your rodeo tickets, barn dance tickets, and check out the merchandise.

A Williams Lake youth dart player, Dustin Sarnowski, has qualified for the Youth National Dart Tournament May 15-19 in St. John’s, Nfld. Sarnowski finished first in the junior boys division at the B.C. Youth Provincial Dart Championships to earn his spot. Now, his Darts BC coach, Williams Lake’s Wayne O’Neil, is hoping to help fundraise enough money so both can attend the championships. “We’re fundraising throughout the community trying to raise

enough money so we can go,” said O’Neil, who has also started up a youth dart league in the lakecity. Sarnowski began playing darts while visiting O’Neil with his mom when O’Neil was recovering from paralysis as a result of a brain injury. “He was coming over to visit with his mom, and I’d been doing darts on my own for physiotherapy and Dustin, one day, started playing alongside me and he put up a dart board beside my board,” O’Neil said. “I asked him once he started getting better if he wanted to go to provincials and he said,

Band performances kicks off Cariboo Festival Michelle Erlandson Special to The Tribune I had the privilege to sit in on some fine performances given this week at the Cariboo Festival’s Band and Instrumental section of competition. It was so encouraging to hear the groups from the local elementary schools and other small groups. A rhythm band played two incredible pieces on hand bells and recorder ensemble followed by two other great pieces. Earlier some smaller groups performed and received instruction from the adjudicator, Jose Delgado-Guevara, on playing in ensembles. The morning ended with some adult ensembles which the adjudicator challenged with more expertise in his field. This is the goal of the local Cariboo Festival, to bring in an adjudicator to encourage and inspire students to more and more expertise in their chosen discipline. It was awesome to hear and see the groups performing and then to hear the adjudicator give critique on how to

Fish and Bird house concert filled to the rafters Sage Birchwater Special to The Tribune Despite rain, snow, sleet and hail, spring break-up mud, and the rushing torrent of Moffet Creek nearby, Geoff and Marin Patenaude opened their home for a house concert, Saturday, April 6 for Victoriabased indie-folk quintet, Fish and Bird. Folks in the Cariboo didn’t bat an eye over the inclement weather, and the house that Geoff started building 39 years ago was full to the rafters. Marin, one of Geoff’s four musical progeny who moved back home a couple years ago, introduced Fish and Bird band members Ryan Boeur (guitar), Ben Kelly (percussion), Adam Iredale-Gray (fiddle and guitar), Taylor Ashton (lead vocalist, songwriter, guitar, banjo), and Oliver Swain (bass). It was pointed out that Swain was filling in for regular upright bass player and vocalist, Natalie Bohrn, however Swain has played with the group in the past. Some folks might remember him from the now defunct group Outlaw Social which included Pharis Patenaude (now Romero) and Catherine Black. Fish and Bird started

out as a duo six years ago with Ashton and Iredale-Gray, then expanded into a five-piece band in 2009. The band stopped by the Patenaude household for a house concert on their way north to Prince George where they were scheduled to perform at Artspace the next day (Sunday, April 7), before continuing their tour in a nasty diagonal to South-Eastern B.C. in Nelson, several major rivers and mountain ranges away. Besides singing their repertoire of old material, the group performed several new songs that will be included on their upcoming album they plan to record soon on Main Island. This will be Fish and Bird’s fourth album and their second in their configuration as a fivepiece band. The group’s first two albums were done as a duo with the original band members Taylor Ashton and Adam Iredale-Gray. For more information on the group or to purchase their music, visit their website fishandbird.ca. Marin says she and her dad hope to host more house concerts, so keep your ear to the wind or eye on facebook for more upcoming events.

Painter and sculptor team up for April show LeRae Haynes

Ramsey Harker. It’s a creative look at women, combining vivid vertical colour and horizontal texture, where every piece tells a story. Both artists are from the Quesnel area and this is their first time showing together. Ashcroft said that this is her second time showing at the Station House Gallery, adding that she also shows at the Breeze Gallery in Quesnel. “I love showing here — what a wonderful little gallery. When Joan suggested we have a show here, I was thrilled,” she explained. “We have never shown together before but this is logical: something to cover the walls and something to fill the spaces.” She said that as a sculptor she spent all her life looking for subject matter. “Somewhere around 50 I decided that it was me I was interested in; my life that I wanted to reflect, and the experiences I had. So I started sculpting women and suddenly I was liberated. I knew that this was something I was very comfortable with,” she continued. “So I almost always sculpt women and I almost always sculpt them in situations or emotional responses that were instrumental in my life. Every single one of these pieces tells a story connected to it.” Joan Ramsey Harker, who also shows in Quesnel and in Prince George, talked about her acrylic paintings on display at the Gallery, stating that there was one four-painting series in particular that evokes

the most emotion for her. The painting is called ‘Siblings’ and depicts a man a woman sitting backward on two wooden chairs. “I bought this funny chair years and years ago and photographed a lot of people in it. This painting is one is of my brother and me quite a few years ago. I like it because it looks like we’re riding motorcycles,” she said. “This is a particularly personal series for me.” The series depicts the relationship between her and her brother and the loss in her life when he passed away. She also said this was her first show primarily about women. ‘Rock, Paper and Canvas’ will be on display on the lower level

at the Station House Gallery for the month of April. The upper level at the Gallery is showcasing

“They call the Cariboo home”

Animal physio: helping to keep your dog fit and healthy LeRae Haynes

Special to The Tribune Lynn Bell is an animal rehab therapist at the Williams Lake Veterinary Hospital. Under a vet’s direction she provides physio for animals, treating musculoskeletal issues: joints, ligament, tendons and nerves, and has also taken behavioural courses to help her in her work with animals. “I treat many muscle sprains and strains and ligament injuries. One of the most common is cruciate ligament injuries in the knee. People get them too — often from hyperextension. With a dog, it is closely related to their conformation; in this case, how straight their knees are,” she said. “A dog can suffer a cruciate injury from jumping off something, slipping on the stairs or getting hit and bowled over by a bigger dog — these injuries can be very traumatic.” Lynn does not treat medical conditions like liver or heart disease or cancer, but has done prodigious research and taken extensive training to provide the treatments she offers her fourlegged clients. “Sometimes I see them after they’ve had surgery to correct a cruciate injury, or early on to prevent a full-blown tear,” she continued. She also treats things like hip dysplasia, arthritic and neurological conditions and back and neck injuries. “Dogs are just like us,” she added. “I see quite a few osteo-arthritic dogs. I help older dogs stay mobile. If dogs can become more mobile they will naturally exercise and move more.” A physiotherapist for people for 31 years, she has been treating animals for the last 12. She said that she took courses in animal rehab, including an advanced course in 2002, adding that she can work with any animal, but that her work is mainly with dogs and the occasional cat. “I don’t diagnose or create exercise programs,” she explained. “I consult

Animal rehab therapist Lynn Bell demonstrates some of the techniques she uses on her four-legged clients to help improve mobility, circulation and overall health. with the veterinarians: they create the plan and I carry it out.” The move from people to animals was a natural one for Lynn. “I was always going to be a vet, but in Britain, where I’m from, the focus was mainly large animals, so I went into physiotherapy. An animal rehabilitation group contacted a group of us ‘physios’ and asked if we wanted to join — so I did,” she explained. “Why not? Animals and people needing physio involve similar conditions and surgeries. Animals and people even have similar anatomies. Animal physio is much more popular in the U.S., the U.K. and Australia, where they offer degree programs — much more advanced than Canada.” She was also instrumental

in starting the original Williams Lake animal shelter, which started out as a shed with cages for cats. She worked on the project with several friends for more than 12 years. Once the Animal Rehab Division of the Canadian Physiotherapy Association started offering courses, she got involved and decided that’s what she wanted to do. “My friends weren’t surprised. They knew that’s where my heart lay. I like animals more than people: they don’t whine as much and they’re much more co-operative,” she said. “I started out doing home visits under a vet referral system. I wrote letters to all the vets and found out that they were either all

for it, or were not convinced of its benefits, and I found the vets here at Williams Lake Veterinary Hospital very progressive and open to the idea.” When she first started out, she said that she had a muscle stimulator, an ultrasound machine and her hands. “I did home visits from here to Prince George and Kamloops, often with five dogs booked a day,” she stated. “I still believe that there is great benefit to home visits, and sometimes a vet will ask me to do one. Animals are much less stressed; I also get to see their home setting — the yard, the stairs, the floors — the animal’s everyday environment.” The room where she works with animals at the veterinary hospital is spacious, comfortable and convenient for her clients. She said that Dr. Ross Hawkes, veterinarian and clinic owner, invited her to set up on site and she moved in November 2012 – something she calls “a great arrangement for all of us.” Exercise is a big part of the plans she uses for animals. She has a treadmill, ‘peanut’ balls for things like stretching, balancing and strengthening, steps of various heights and textures and a range of obstacle equipment. Every piece is specially designed to help. “I try to set owners up with a home-based program that works for them, geared to their lifestyle, schedule, likes and dislikes and to what will work best for them and their pet,” she said. “If people make the call to set up an appointment with me, they’re already committed. The majority will see immediate improvement after the first treatment and that’s what keeps them motivated.” Even though the vet does the diagnosis, Lynn does her own thorough assessment of the animal. “It’s a great working relationship between me and the clinic that benefits our clients and, bottom line, provides a better quality of life for these dogs,” she

continued. “There aren’t a lot of alternatives to physio, other than medication. In a lot of cases this really reduces the medication an animal needs, resulting in fewer side effects.” She teaches owners how to do massage and stretches — giving them the tools to help their pet, and helping to reduce their stress. “This is something safe and beneficial that you can do for your dog. If you’re going to relax and watch TV and pet your dog, you can turn that into something truly beneficial,” she said. “It’s better than petting, and it makes people closer to their dog.” Lynn also does spinal mobilizations and works with stiff joints, using ultrasound and muscle stimulation. “I’ve seen wasted shoulder muscles on an injured horse restored in three weeks using muscle stimulation,” she noted. “After surgery these treatments are very helpful when an animal has reduced movement. They don’t cause trauma to the site —they really work.” Client education and injury prevention is also very important to Lynn. “I have given talks to kennel clubs to teach stretching and massage and am trying to get into more conformation analysis for ‘at risk’ dogs to try to prevent injuries, especially in performance animals,” she stated. She said that animals will tell you without words how they hurt, where they hurt and what they will allow you to do to help. “They tell you so much – you have to watch and listen and pay attention to all the subtleties,” she said. “You have to be aware of the whole dog. “My goal, and my reward is when someone says, ‘Oh my god, they’re doing so well and they’re so much better.’ I want the owner and the animal to live together as long as they can with the best quality of life possible,” she concluded. “I have had clients say, ‘You have given me more quality years with my dog than I would ever had otherwise.’”

Edna Ann (Moore) Irvine 1922 ~ 2013 It is with great sadness that the family of Edna announce her peaceful passing on April 6, 2013, at her home surrounded by her family. Edna was born December 12, 1922 at Peavine Ranch - her parents were Thomas Moore and Agnes (Tresierra) Moore. Her grandparents were Pablo Tresierra and Hortonse (Isnardy) Tresierra & John Moore and Annie (Chairo) Moore. Edna’s children have always maintained “they were related to everyone”. Edna was predeceased by her husband Dal. She is survived by sons Tom and Chris & daughters Sharon Tucker, Cindy Martin and Linda Guenette. She had two devoted son-in-laws Grant Martin and Rene Guenette. One daughter-in-law Darlene that has spent the past 45 years proving she was a good choice for “Tommy” Edna’s first born. Edna was a proud grandmother to Natalie, Stacey, Jill, Blake, Darcey and Brock, whom have all pursued successful professional careers. She had ten great grandchildren. Dal & Edna were some of the original founders of the curling rink. A few avid curlers each purchased two rocks and had to haul them to the rink for games. Edna was made a lifetime member of the Williams Lake Curling Club, and it was here that she make lifelong friends. The family would like to thank Doris, Joan, Charlene, Angela and Cherie that contributed to Edna’s care. Edna is probably sipping a cold frosty beer, kibitzing with her family and friends that encouraged her to meet them in the “Angel Saloon”.
