The RCMP Cariboo Chilcotin Traffic Services reminds people traveling this long holiday weekend to consider the following: • Drinking or using drugs and driving is a bad idea, the carnage from this affects us all. There is always another way to get to where you need to go, taxi, bus or call a friend. One person injured or killed is too many. • The use of a seat belt is mandatory and is the best safety device in an automobile. When worn correctly in conjunction with an airbag, the crash survival rate is as high as 95 per cent. • Talking or texting while driving is extremely dangerous and results in far too many crashes, injuries and deaths. Ask yourself if you would close your eyes driving at 100 km/hr for up to seven seconds. The answer is probably no. • Police will be conducting increased enforcement this weekend.

Donna Barnett Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA
Both Liberal candidates Donna Barnett, Cariboo-Chilcotin, and Coralee Oakes, Cariboo North are excited to have won their ridings after what they said was a “nail-biter” election night. By the end of Tuesday evening preliminary results showed Barnett had received 56.44 per cent of the vote and Oakes received 41.26 per cent. Speaking from her campaign headquarters in 100 Mile House late Tuesday evening, Barnett said she and her supporters had a great evening. “We’re very pleased. It’s a very good mandate for myself and a very good mandate for government,” Barnett said. Throughout the campaign Barnett said she felt good, but “not” confident. “I’ve been in many, many elections
in my life and I never ever take anything for granted in an election. As you start to think you’re way ahead of the game, you get yourself in trouble, so every day you work as hard as you can.” Speaking from Quesnel Tuesday evening, Oakes said she was thrilled how it looks for people in the north. “Several years ago we talked about the ‘northern decade.’ This is just one more piece in what that northern decade will look like.” Oakes enjoyed the entire campaign, something she had not expected, she said. “We had such an amazing campaign team,” Oakes said. “Every single day we had fun and I’m so thankful.” For more on election 2013 turn to page A4.

NEWS Four seasons? Pffft!
Ask people why they choose to live in the north and chances are—if it isn’t work related—they will tell you they enjoy experiencing all four seasons. I have said the same thing myself. However, after almost half a century of living and loving life in the north, I realize we rarely get four seasons. Usually we only get two; summer and winter. Hence the local expressions “spring came on a Tuesday this year” or “I heard we had a real nice spring but I was out of town that day and missed it.” One day we’re staring out the window at a late April blizzard thinking we must be a special kind of stupid to be living in a place like this and
the next we’re mowing the lawn. In the fall it’s the same thing. One day the leaves are green, the next they’re lemon and the day after that a wild wind sends them all flying and in a blink of an eye we wake up to barren trees and a foot of snow. But let’s not think about that. Last week the garden was still covered in snow and this week I am planting my peas, carrots, beets, potatoes, kale and lettuce. I am feeling a bit wound up. You see, I have cut my garden in half… sort of. A few years back we doubled my top garden. It’s handier to the house, more sheltered and the higher elevation means

it usually comes through the first fall frost unscathed; the same frost that wipes out the lower garden. However, the lower garden has 15 years worth of compost tilled into it. It’s hard to let it go. The smartest garden advice I ever read recommended taking how much garden you think you can look after and cutting that amount by half. Turns out I was
COWBOY UP! What are you wearing?
smart enough to recognize good advice, but not smart enough to take it. When faced with moving the garden up top and letting the old one go, I got greedy. I just couldn’t do it. More is better, right? So I decided I would plant it all. If I had too much I could just give more away. Turns out sometimes more is just more. More work, more weeding, more watering but frustratingly enough, less harvest. How could that be? I had drawn my garden plans without thought to exactly how I would balance work and weeding. Come summer I flew about seeding, transplanting, dividing, weeding, watering and harvesting
but I could never quite keep up. When the carrots needed to be thinned the tomatoes were crying for water. When the peas needed to be picked the quack grass was taking over the asparagus bed. When the raspberries needed pruning the spinach was bolting. And then there was work, deadlines, dishes, laundry and all the other details that make up a person’s life. I got a tad cranky. And then last year in that tiny sliver of time between summer and winter I had an “aha” moment. I was harvesting beets and realizing because I hadn’t thinned them when I should have I was only getting one bed’s worth from
three. In other words, had I looked after one bed properly I wouldn’t have needed the other two; ditto for the carrots. What was even more enlightening was I still had enough. I couldn’t fit any more beets or carrots in our fridge, freezer or pickle jars even if I had them. I had wasted time, water and seeds. This year I am condensing my efforts into the upper garden and letting the lower garden go fallow. I am convinced tending a small garden well will yield just as big—if not bigger—harvests as I would get from tending a huge garden haphazardly. I have always believed that joy, happiness and abundance

I’ve had to watch myself like a hawk. I can hardly believe I made it through the winter without going on any seed binges. During spring (or Tuesday as it were) I feared I would make a break for town, fill a cart with seed potatoes and go careening towards the checkout. Thank goodness spring is over and summer is here.

Optimism and enthusiasm pay off for Liberals The pollsters had it all wrong. Christy Clark’s B.C. Liberals pulled off one of the most surprising upsets in B.C. political history Tuesday, snatching a majority government from a B.C. NDP party that had been leading the polls throughout the election campaign. Clark, despite not winning her own riding of Vancouver-Point Grey, helped garner 50 seats for her party — 43 makes up a majority — in the B.C. legislature. The Clark’s campaign can be described as optimistic, enthusiastic and ultimately aggressive when it came
to attacking the NDP and its leader. The NDP and leader Adrian Dix fell short of their projected results, managing 33 seats. The Green Party with Andrew Weaver, and independent, Vicki Huntington, each won one seat. Despite a push to increase voter turnout at this year’s provincial election numbers show an overall turnout of about 52 per cent, just slightly higher than the 50 per cent who voted in 2009. Preliminary results after the polls closed Tuesday evening showed Cariboo North’s Liberal candidate Coralee Oakes had
5,459 votes; independent Bob Simpson had 4,933; and NDP, Duncan Barnett had 2,840. In Cariboo-Chilcotin Liberal candidate Donna Barnett had 6,952 votes; NDP, Charlie Wyse had 4,253; Green, Dustin Price had 657; and independent, Gary Young had 455.
Voter turnout was down in both ridings, compared to 2009. In Cariboo North the turnout was 56.75 per cent, compared to 60 per cent in 2009. In Cariboo-Chilcotin, the voter turnout was 58.6 per cent, compared to 62.9 per cent in 2009.
Still both percentages were higher than the provincial average.

Council receives First Quarter Economic Indicators Report Unemployment is down and lumber prices are up, according to the First Quarter Economic Indicators Report city council received at its April 23 meeting. Unemployment in the Cariboo was at 6.7 per cent in March, compared to 7.5 per cent in March 2012. The provincial unemployment rate was 7.3 per cent in March 2012 and 7 per cent in March 2013. Lumber prices averaged more than $400 per thousand board feet in the first quarter of 2013, compared to just under $300 in the same period in 2012. The report contains economic statistics from the city of Williams Lake, the provincial and federal governments (unemployment rate) and the Northern BC Real Estate Board. It provides a snapshot of the first quar-
ter of 2013, compared to the first quarters of previous years. In addition, the report notes that economic forecasts for B.C. estimate moderate growth in 2013, but forest products and mining are noted as growth sectors. U.S. housing starts increased to over one million in March, the highest level in five years. This increased demand along with tighter supply has driven lumber prices to over $400 per 1,000 board feet, a high not seen since 2007. These figures bode well for Williams Lake. Locally, building permit applications being processed for industrial and commercial developments are anticipated to result in mid 2013 permit value levels rising approximately 50 per cent over the
first half of 2012 values. The city is completing initiatives in 2013 with the goal of making city hall more businessfriendly. As a start, the city will be looking at best practice illustrations from the award winning communities of the BC Small Business Roundtable’s Small Business Friendly Community Award program. Examples include streamlining local regulations, highlighting the importance of local business sectors to the community, and working with business groups to help identify gaps and complimentary business opportunities. Promoting existing municipal incentives will also be one step in efforts to enhance the city’s business friendliness. For ex-
ample, increasing communications about the city’s two existing Revitalization Tax Exemptions programs will be one part of the project. These tax exemption programs offer property owners in the downtown core and north end industrial area an opportunity to offset assessment based municipal tax increases that may result from capital investments to buildings and property.

NDP challenger David Eby defeated Clark by more than 700 votes in Vancouver-Point Grey, knocking on doors while Clark traveled the province on the leader’s tour. At a news conference Wednesday, Clark shrugged off the loss, saying the seat was closely contested when Gordon Campbell held it and also had little time to campaign there. Asked repeatedly about polls that predicted her doom, Clark noted that she discussed that briefly with Prime Minister Stephen Harper when he called to congratulate her on winning the party’s fourth term. And she offered some advice on polling to reporters who gathered at the Vancouver cabinet offices. “You guys get this stuff for free,” Clark said. “You should take it

Labour market analysis to support forestry workforce The B.C. government is investing $126,500 to help build and expand the province’s forestry workforce under a Labour Market Partnerships Program agreement with the Council of Forest Industries (COFI). This six-month project, which is funded through the Canada British Columbia Labour Market Development Agreement (LMDA), will identify forestry labour market trends, gaps and challenges with employee recruitment and training. “Government is working with industry leaders like COFI to develop solid human resources
strategies that will build B.C.’s skilled labour force,” Steve Thomson, Minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations said when government announced the plan earlier this month. “The pulp and paper sector currently employs 12,000 people, and we need to ensure we have the necessary skills training in place to support future job opportunities in this sector.” Nick Arkle, Council of Forest Industries chair says: “Preparing our next generation of skilled workers and leaders is a priority for all segments of the forest sector if we
are to take full advantage of the many opportunities in front of us. We welcome this opportunity to work with government in developing and executing the program.” This project supports the development of the BC Pulp and Paper Human Resource Committee. The committee will develop a partnership of key organizations in the forestry sector to enhance the overall effectiveness of recruitment, training and retention of workers.

Clark’s win confounds the ‘experts’
B.C. VIEWS TOM FLETCHER
The pollsters, pundits and the self-styled rebels of the B.C. Liberal Party were struggling for answers as their conventional wisdom went out the window on election night. In came the B.C. Liberals and Christy Clark for a fourth term, with a 50-seat majority that is stronger than the one they took into the 2013 election. “Welcome to the club,” Alberta Premier Alison Redford wrote on Twitter on election night, referring to Redford’s own win in the face of a wall of polls and pontificators saying she was done. Here’s the next thing to ignore from the media experts who rub shoulders with those pollsters and political strategists. It’s all about the negative ads, they will say, and NDP leader Adrian Dix’s big mistake was to run a “positive” campaign. Rubbish. Was their long fight against the harmonized sales tax a positive campaign? Is piling on sham environmental reviews for the express purpose of killing industrial projects a positive idea? “Clearly our message didn’t get out the way we wanted it to get out,” Dix said after watching one of the biggest comebacks in Canadian political history. That’s rubbish too. He
got his message out just fine, serving it up in bitesized pieces in a classic front-runner’s campaign that cynically put off the most difficult choices. He was going to expand government, and restrict industrial development to appease urban voters. Dix’s most dramatic policy shift contributed to his undoing. Mid-campaign, in a decision that surprised even his platform co-chairs, Dix turned against the proposal to twin the TransMountain oil pipeline that winds across B.C. from Alberta
to Burnaby. Well, not the pipeline itself, but the prospect of more oil tankers in and out of Vancouver harbour. At least now, more people will understand that Vancouver has been an oil port for nearly a century, and that Canada’s future includes energy development. More people should also appreciate that environmental assessment is not a political game. Andrew Weaver made history as B.C.’s first Green Party MLA. He came out swinging against
Clark’s economic holy grail, development of liquefied natural gas exports from the North Coast. Weaver calls LNG a “pipe dream” that will never materialize. It will be interesting to watch him as he is proved wrong on that, and then as he grapples with gas as a transition fuel that can be used to develop clean energy infrastructure. B.C. Conservative leader John Cummins ran a distant third in his Langley constituency, and his goal of a breakthrough didn’t materialize anywhere.
His idea of scrapping the carbon tax on fossil fuels didn’t impress many people, despite his focus on rural and northern B.C. Clark should heed the NDP on at least one thing. Dix promised to move B.C. election dates to the fall, starting in 2017. The idea of giving his anticipated government an extra six months to govern the province was uncontroversial when Dix proposed it in his party’s election platform, so Clark will probably proceed with it. Another NDP idea Clark should adopt is getting the
corporate and union money out of election campaigns. She likely won’t, because her party’s financial advantage is too great, but the time has come for this important reform. The B.C. Liberals’ much-discussed “balanced” budget will now be put to the test over the next few months. The legislature must be convened by September to debate that budget. This should be the last vote based on an untested budget, and the first of many scheduled fall legislature sessions.

Prince Rupert LNG applies for permits Tom Fletcher Black Press As the debate over natural gas development dominates the B.C. election campaign, British Gas Group has filed a project description for its proposed liquefied natural gas plant on Ridley Island at the Port of Prince Rupert. One of the largest of five export proposals in the works for B.C.’s North Coast, Prince Ru-
pert LNG proposes to build three production trains with a total capacity of 21 million tonnes per year, to be shipped in specialized tankers to buyers on the Pacific Rim. BG Group has a development agreement with Spectra Energy for a pipeline to bring gas from northeastern B.C. to the coast. Spectra’s Fort Nelson gas processing plant and the Prince Rupert and Kitimat areas were
campaign stops for Premier Christy Clark this week, as she continues to promote LNG development as the key to prosperity for the province. The NDP again stressed its support for LNG development, rejecting B.C. Liberal suggestions that its scientific review of shale gas drilling would disrupt industry expansion plans. The proposal calls

for natural gas-fired electricity generation to supply the plant, with gas-powered mechanical drives to run the liquefaction refrigeration compressors. Powering LNG development has been controversial, with aboriginal groups in the region opposed to projects that pollute the air and leave obsolette infrastructure after gas production ends. The Canadian Environmental Assessment
Agency must decide if a federal assessment of the project is needed, or if a provincial permit is sufficient. Prince Rupert LNG’s project description calls for a two-phase development, with the first phase of two LNG trains that would fill three to four ships per week. A third train would be added later, bringing output up to five to six LNG tankers per week.

Kindergarten and the Gospel The basics of living life on this planet, including knowing and experiencing God, you learned in kindergarten. Two decades ago a book by Robert Fulghum sold over seven million copies with the title All I Really Need To Know I Learned in Kindergarten. He wrote,“all I really need to know about how to live, what to do and how to be I learned in kindergarten.” Here are a few of the things we learned in kindergarten; to share, to play fair, don’t hurt people, don’t take things, clean up your mess, say you’re sorry when you hurt somebody, flush, wash your hands before you eat, take a nap in the afternoon after warm cookies and milk. In kindergarten, we learned to live life in balance by learning some, thinking some, singing and playing some – every day. We learned when you go out into the world to watch out for traffic, hold hands and stick together. We learned to wonder, remember the little seed in the styrofoam cup, the roots went down and the plant came up and nobody really knew how or why. Goldfish, hamsters and white mice and even the little seed in the cup, they all die and so do we. He concluded, what a better world it would be if everyone had cookies and milk every afternoon and then lay down with a blanket and had a nap and if everyone put things back where they found them and cleaned
PARSONS PEN PARSONS PEN
BY CAMERON JOHNSTON BY JEREMY VOGT up their messes. It is still true, no matter how old you are, when you go out into the world it is best to hold hands and stick together. Reviewing this recently, I realized the book only touches on the spiritual side of life. Also it occurred to me that most people with a Christian background learned in kindergarten everything they need to know about God. For example, every child in church learns that Jesus loves me this I know for the Bible tells me so. We learned early in life that Jesus loves me when I’m good and when I do the things I should and Jesus loves me when I’m bad even though it makes him sad.
As a kindergartener we memorized John 3:16, “For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.” (NLT) In kindergarten we learned equality at the foot of the cross as we sang, God loves the little children of the world, red and yellow, black and white all are precious in his sight. After living over fifty years as a committed and active Christian, I realize that all life here on this planet is kindergarten. Whether we live until Jesus returns or go to the grave, the end of life as we know it is simply graduation from kindergarten. Here are a couple of my observations after six decades in kindergarten. Jesus still loves me this I know because I have experienced his grace, forgiveness and unconditional love so many times. Jesus loves me because he is my daddy. He created me and nothing can change that. Jesus is my best friend and I am making some progress in being a trustworthy friend to him. We are all, believer or unbeliever, his children. We are all messed up and we all can enjoy hope only because of his unconditional favour and kindness. Are you living free and enjoying the love of God while playing in the sandbox of life? If not, consider simply opening your life to the reality of God and he will reveal to you all your present and eternal possibilities.

Province commits funding for Aboriginal tourism The Province of British Columbia has provided $1 million to support the growth of Aboriginal tourism in B.C. The funding will go directly to the Aboriginal Tourism Association of BC (AtBC) to support their ongoing marketing strategy, Citizens’ Services and Open Government Minister Ben Stewart announced at the National Aboriginal Tourism Opportunities Conference in Osoyoos today. As of April 1, provincial tourism marketing will become the responsibility of Destination British Columbia, a new industry-led, formulafunded Crown corporation. Future funding for all tourism marketing partnerships will be under their purview. “British Columbia’s Aboriginal history and culture are vital to our province’s social tapestry. In a time of fierce tourism competition from around the world, B.C.’s Aboriginal experiences are a very special product that put us ahead of the pack. Our government believes that Aboriginal tourism is a key part of B.C.’s tourism success, and we support their marketing strategy,” said Pat Bell, Minister of Jobs, Tourism and Skills Training and Responsible for Labour in the April gov-
ernment press release. According to an interim evaluation report prepared by Simon Fraser University’s Centre for Tourism Policy and Research, the following results were achieved during AtBC’s previous 5-year strategy: * Overall incidence of travelers in B.C. experiencing Aboriginal tourism attractions / products / services increased from about 13 per cent to an estimated 22 per cent. * Estimated 3.7 million tourists experienced some form of Aboriginal tourism (e.g., attractions, products, services, events, etc.) as part of their provincial trips in 2010. This represents an almost doubling (97 per cent) of estimated 2006 visit levels. * Estimated Aboriginal tourism expenditures in B.C. reached about $40 million in the 2010 Olympic year. This represents a 6 per cent increase over estimated 2009 levels and a doubling (100 per cent) over 2006 levels. * Based on overall visitor expenditure estimates, it is estimated that Aboriginal tourists contributed about $11.3 million in tax revenues to various levels of government in 2010. * An estimated 2,226 full-time equiv-

alent jobs were collectively generated by Aboriginal tourism businesses in 2010, representing approximately a 32 per cent increase over those reported in 2006. Aboriginal tourism is one of the key product priorities included in the B.C. government’s Tourism Strategy. Ben Stewart, Minister of Citizens Services and Open Government said: “I am often struck by how privileged we are to live in a part of the world with such deep and fascinating cultural roots. I’m delighted that AtBC is continuing their strategy for growth, and am confident they will be as successful as in the
past in drawing more tourists to our wide variety of Aboriginal experiences.” Keith Henry, CEO, Aboriginal Tourism Association of BC said: “The partnership and commitment with the Province of B.C. is critical to sustainability and future growth in the Aboriginal cultural tourism industry. AtBC continues to be a proud partner with the Province in an effort to continue the remarkable growth of the Aboriginal cultural tourism industry. “The future of tourism for all of B.C. will continue to benefit by working together to provide visitors unique world-class experiences that recognize the authentic-
ity and stories of the Aboriginal people. This announcement today continues our important work moving forward.” Andrea Shaw, chair, Destination British Columbia board of directors said: “Aboriginal tourism represents an incredible growth opportunity for our industry. It’s important that we continue to support experiences in which visitors have the opportunity to experience B.C.’s Aboriginal roots. Whether it’s enjoying Klahowya Village in Stanley Park or participating in a ceremony in the Okanagan, B.C.’s Aboriginal tourism experiences help us define our unique culture to the rest of the world.”

Grilling Safety
There’s nothing like outdoor grilling. It’s one of the most popular ways to cook food. But, a grill placed too close to anything that can burn is a fire hazard. They can be very hot, causing burn injuries. Follow these simple tips and you will be on the way to safe grilling.

SAFETY TIPS
Propane and charcoal BBQ grills should only be used outdoors. The grill should be placed well away from the home, deck railings and out from under eaves and overhanging branches. Keep children and pets away from the grill area. Keep your grill clean by removing grease or fat buildup from the grills and in trays below the grill. Never leave your grill unattended.
CHARCOAL GRILLS
There are several ways to get the charcoal ready to use. Charcoal chimney starters allow you to start the charcoal using newspaper as a fuel. If you use a starter fluid, use only charcoal starter fluid. Never add charcoal fluid or any other flammable liquids to the fire. Keep charcoal fluid out of the reach of children and away from heat sources. There are also electric charcoal starters, which do not use fire. Be sure to use an extension cord for outdoor use. When you are finished grilling, let the coals completely cool before disposing in a metal container.
PROPAnE GRILLS
Check the gas tank hose for leaks before using it for the first time each year. Apply a light soap and water solution to the hose. A propane leak will release bubbles. If your grill has a gas leak, by smell or the soapy bubble test, and there is no flame, turn off the gas tank and grill. If the leak stops, get the grill serviced by a professional before using it again. If the leak does not stop, call the fire department.

News Protected grasslands increases by 2,800 hectares
The Province is protecting an additional 2,800 hectares of important and sensitive grasslands in Kamloops Environment Minister Terry Lake announced in April. “The grassland areas north of Kamloops Lake are recognized for their importance to wildlife. Most of this area is now included in the Lac du Bois Grasslands Protected Area, Tranquille Ecological Reserve, McQueen Creek Ecological Reserve, Dewdrop-Rosseau Creek Wildlife Management Area and Tranquille Wildlife Management Area,” Lake said. The Ministry of Environment is adding a total of 1,385 hectares to the Lac du Bois Grasslands Protected Area. The addi-
tions will provide for a greater continuous area of sensitive grasslands and associated critical wildlife habitat being protected. This area is home to three grassland communities within the bunchgrass zone: the lower, middle and upper grasslands. Nowhere else in western North America is this transition between grassland communities found in such close proximity. Found at higher elevations are dry Ponderosa Pine and Interior Douglas-fir forests. Visitors can find cool, dry forests and several small lakes encompassed by rolling hills and long, yellow grasslands. Just like the surrounding environment, a variety of wildlife can be found
within the boundaries of Lac du Bois Grasslands Protected Area, including California bighorn sheep, white tail and mule deer, moose, sharp-tail grouse, owls and black bears. Many species at risk also make their home here, including the American Badger and Lewis’ woodpecker. A number of administrative corrections to the boundary of the protected area are also being made, adding small pieces of land to the protected area. The Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations is better protecting wildlife habitat in the Kamloops area, following new additions to the Dewdrop-Rosseau Creek Wildlife Management Area.
Approximately 1,478 hectares of land have been added to the existing DewdropRosseau Creek Wildlife Management Area, increasing its overall size by over a third, to 5,616 hectares. The additions fill in the gap of territory between the existing Wildlife Management Area and the western border of Lac du Bois Grasslands Protected Area. The Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation originally helped to purchase one of the sites added to the Wildlife Management Area. Steve Thomson, Minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations said: “Wildlife Management Areas represent a strong tool in protecting critical
wildlife habitat. Our government will continue to seek new opportunities like this one to establish or expand this valuable conservation tool.” Phil You we, director, Grasslands Conservation Council of B.C. said: “The Grasslands Conservation Council of BC applauds the Province and the City of Kamloops for making the decision to advance the conservation and management of these lands, while allowing for the continuation of ranching. We also wish to recognize all the volunteers who contributed hundreds of hours into the regional land use planning processes. The additions will improve the con-
nectivity of these lands for the long-term benefit of the plant and animal communities and for people to enjoy now and in the future.” Jo-Ann Fox, program manager, Southern Interior Weed Management Committee said: “The Lac du Bois Grasslands Protected Area contains important and diverse ecosystems and has been identified as a high priority area by the SIWMC committee members for many years. The Southern Interior Weed Management Committee is pleased the Province is further protecting these unique grasslands and giving British Columbians a greater range to explore.”

Symposium explores commodification of Aboriginal culture Simon Fraser University archaeology professor George Nicholas joined international scholars at a Vancouver symposium May 2 to explore the commodification of Aboriginal culture. “The abundance of souvenir totem poles and inukshuks in many shops locally often makes it difficult for tourists and locals alike to discern what is authentic and what is merely a cheap knockoff of native heritage,”
says Nicholas. “But these commodified symbols of indigenous culture raise more than just the question of real versus fake.” Cultural Commodification, Indigenous Peoples & Self-Determination, was organized by the SFU-based Intellectual Property Issues in Cultural Heritage (IPinCH) project, directed by Nicholas, and hosted at the University of B.C. Attendees engaged with issues of indigenous identity, property and
sovereignty that are raised in relation to cultural commodification. A flurry of debate about the commodification of First Nations and Inuit culture surrounded the 2010 Vancouver Olympics. The event raised objections as to the way that elements of Aboriginal culture were being used to represent Vancouver and Canada to the world. “This is a topic of great relevance in the Vancouver area where gift shops
are filled with both First Nations products and copies of them, some made locally and some made overseas,” says Nicholas, director of the IPinCH project. “There is incredible confusion on the part of consumers and shopkeepers, as well as indigenous peoples and artists, as to what is appropriate, and what is not, to sell or purchase.” Solen Roth, a UBC anthropologist and member of the IPinCH project team, has conducted
research on these very issues. She says approximately 80 per cent of Aboriginal-themed merchandise sold in Vancouver’s tourism sites are made by non-Aboriginal companies, sometimes with, but too often without input from Aboriginal artists. While there has been a noticeable increase in Aboriginal-owned companies, Roth adds there is still room for more Aboriginal control and involvement in the market.

Planting and maintaining Clematis They are called the ‘Queen of the Vines’ for good reason. These vines add a vertical element to the garden, along with colourful blooms or interesting seed heads. If you are new to gardening here are a few tips to selecting, planting and maintaining your clematis. Your first decision is tough because there are so many varieties to choose from. Make sure the variety is hardy for your area. Once you have decided on the variety find out how it needs to be pruned. Flowering time will help you determine when to prune. Early flowering species that bloom in late April to late May don’t need
much pruning. They flower on ‘old wood’ or last season’s growth. All that needs to be pruned is any dead wood, old nonproductive wood or to keep the vine in check in the space you have. Just
wait until you can see some leaves emerging on the stems and remove any that show no signs of life. A good example of this is Clematis macropetala ‘Blue Bird’. These types of clematis
are often designated as Group A or 1. Group B or 2 bloom mid to late May and will repeat again in September. So these flower on both old and new wood. Remove dead stems in spring. The largest flowers will be produced on old wood and the new growth will provide flowers for later in season. The oldest stems can be removed after flowering. The clematis ‘The President’ is from this group. Confused yet? Just wait, there’s one more group. Group C or 3 is the large flowering varieties that bloom later in summer. These are the easiest to prune. Group C clematis bloom on new wood therefore they need a good hard pruning in the spring. Prune almost
to the ground but leave a few strong buds at the base of the plant. The popular ‘Jackmanii’ is from Group C. If this information leaves you heading for the hills, just ask the trusty nursery person for help. Clematis grow best in a sunny location but because they are shallow rooted the roots need to shaded. This can be done by planting a perennial or short shrub in front of the clematis. I also suggest mulching with some leaves in the fall as clematis are often lost when we get an early hard frost with no snow to protect them. The soil can be amended with organic matter such as peat moss or compost. A handful of bonemeal worked in to the bottom of the hole will help with root development.
If you have dogs, I suggest a fertilizer such as 12-16-12 instead. The crown of the clematis should be planted at least 5 cm (2 in.) below the surface of the ground to encourage more stems to grow. The roots will get a good

Perennials are a gardener’s friend Gardening is often seen as an art form to men and women with a green thumb. Once the landscape is designed, homeowners may not want to change much from year to year. That is where perennial plants can be an advantage. Designing a landscape and keeping the garden looking beautiful can take a keen eye. It also may require a lot of time and commitment. If home gardeners have to replant items year after year, gardening can become time-consuming and expensive. Turning to perennial plants and flowers to serve as the anchor for a home garden can make the process easier. Perennials are plants that live indefinitely. In terms of flowering plants, perennials will bloom every year. In essence, they have the staying power of shrubbery but are more delicate in nature and often appealing to the eye. There are perennials for every season, soil type and sun exposure. Perennials come in a wide variety of blooming flowers or attractive
foliage. Chances are if a homeowner wants to add perennials to the garden, there is a variety available that will fit his or her needs. Here are some perennials that can be added to the garden: * lavender * ornamental grasses * asters * chrysanthemums * irises * poppies * milkweed * goldentufts * anemones * columbines * daylilies * peonies * hostas
Once perennials are in place, there is relatively minimal maintenance that is required. The tuneups that may be needed are some deadheading
to promote new and stronger growth and some cleaning up after winter before the new blooming season takes place. Once the early spring season arrives and the ground is not too muddy or rain-soaked, clear out any leaves and debris that have gathered around where perennials are located. Gardeners can also till the mulch or soil in these areas to aerate the planting beds. Using shears, cut down any dead grasses, stems and stalks from spent perennials that overwintered. Remove any dead wood and

broken branches. Be careful not to trim springblooming shrubs because some flowers bloom on year-old stems and this can cause the plant not to flower. Perennials that aren’t flowering as well as they used to or have dead centers may need to be divided to promote stronger growth. This should be done in early spring before the plant blooms or late fall before the winter arrives. Dividing plants and replanting not only grows the garden, but also it is a healthy revitalization for the plant.

Cost-effective fencing options Fencing serves many purposes. Some homeowners erect a fence for privacy, while others do so to contain pets and children. Because fencing can be expensive, some homeowners look for ways to cut costs, which can be relatively easy, especially for those homeowners willing to consider various materials when erecting their fence. Traditional fences are available in materials ranging from wood to vinyl to metal. Homeowners have other options at their disposal if they prefer a more natural fence. Different shrubs, trees or grasses can be planted to create a barrier between properties or within the
There are many different fencing materials that can coordinate with a variety of budgets. property. When choosing a fencing material, consider that even a less expensive material may prove more expensive in the
long run if it needs significant maintenance or has to be replaced in just a few years. Therefore, the most cost-effective fencing material may
not necessarily be the least expensive one at the store. Here are some materials homeowners can consider. * Found material: Re-
Bald spots in your lawn Lawn care aficionados know how a single bald spot can make an otherwise luscious lawn look worn down and poorly maintained. A bald spot can stick out like a sore thumb, while several bald spots can compromise a home’s curb appeal. Treating bald spots typically depends on what is causing the bald spot. Bugs, dryness, pet waste and damage from mowers are some of the more common causes of bald spots. The following is a breakdown of these different causes and how best to address each situation so you can restore your lawn to its natural beauty. Dryness A lawn can go dry because of drought in the summertime or during the winter months when there is not much rain or snowfall. Homeowners cannot change the weather, but they can help their lawn avoid becoming the burned or yellowed turf that often results after extended periods of dryness. Fertilizing the lawn during the spring and summer is a good first step. This helps the lawn grow in healthy and thick. Once you have fer-
tilized, don’t cut the grass too short. When grass is cut too short, the soil struggles to retain moisture, which can eventually lead to bald spots if weather conditions are dry. During especially dry periods in the summer, watering might be necessary. You won’t have to water frequently, but be sure to water deeply so the water can reach the roots of the grass. Pet Waste Waste from pets can cause bald spots on a yard. This might surprise some homeowners, but pet waste contains a high level of concentrated nitrogen that, when applied to a lawn, can burn the grass and cause bald spots. Urine is most likely to cause bald spots, but fecal matter can as well. When addressing the problem of pet waste on your lawn, make sure no one else’s pets are the cause of the problem. Neighbors out walking their dogs should be discouraged from allowing their dogs to use your lawn as a restroom. If this does not work, then erect a fence or some type of structure that makes it difficult for other people’s pets to access your lawn.
When it’s your own pet causing the damage, address the spots where your pet relieves itself as quickly as possible. Watering the area within eight hours can significantly reduce the risk of lawn damage by diluting the nitrogen levels. Another way to address the issue is to encourage the animal to use various spots in the yard, rather than continually using the same spot. Flush each area with water immediately after the pet is finished. If the damage is already considerable, remove the damaged grass and reseed the spot. Mower Damage Sometimes Mother Nature and man’s best friend are not the culprit with regard to bald spots on your lawn. Human error can cause bald spots, too. Dull mower blades or grass that is cut too low can cause bald spots. Fortunately, this is easily remedied. To avoid bald spots, make sure mower blades are sharpened at the beginning of each mowing season, as dull blades damage the grass, which is then forced to use valuable nutrients to treat torn grass, weakening the lawn over time.
When mowing, make sure you’re not cutting too low so the soil can retain as much moisture as possible. This will necessitate more frequent mowing, but this, too, can prevent bald spots, as it ensures those parts of the grass that contain chlorophyll will not be removed. Bald spots can turn a pristine lawn into an eyesore. But treating bald spots can be easy and, when done effectively, the lawn can be restored quickly.
purposed wood or metal can be crafted into a rustic, one-of-a-kind fence. Materials can be found that are no cost, requiring only the cost of labor. Should you build it yourself, this can be next to nothing. Sometimes existing fences on another property can be disassembled and re-built on your own property for little to no cost as well. * Chainlink/chainwire: Chainlink fencing is one of the most economical types of boundary fencing. The fencing comes in a variety of diamond sizes and is fixed to galvanized pipes spaced across the perimeter of the property. Although it is some of the least expensive fencing, it does not offer much privacy on its own. But if you are looking at fencing simply as a barrier, chainlink could be the way to go. * Picket fencing: A wooden picket fence is another inexpensive fencing material. The pickets can be purchased in various heights, and this fence may be used as garden border fencing or to mark a property line between homes. Spacing the pickets widely apart may cut down on the number that need to be purchased, further keeping the cost down. * Bamboo: Bamboo is a rapidly growing grass that produces a hard

wood-like material that is used in many building applications. Bamboo wood can be used to build a fence, but the natural plant also can be planted to form a living fence for privacy. * Stockade fencing: A stockade fence is one of the more basic wood fencing options. Wooden slats are placed alongside one another to form an effective and affordable privacy fence. Stockade fencing can be stained or painted to preserve it. Many home improvement retailers sell panels of stockade fencing so that you can make fence installation a do-it-yourself project. * Vinyl fencing: Although vinyl fencing is one of the more expensive fencing materials at the outset (it costs about twice the price of a wood fence), it does pay for itself rather quickly thanks to minimal maintenance. Unlike some other materials, vinyl will not rot or discolor. You also won’t have to purchase stain, paint and expensive cleaners for a vinyl fence. That means once you make the investment, you will have years upon years of

Center for Biological Diversity works to save endangered species and wild places
Since President Nixon signed the Endangered Species Act into law in 1973, it has prevented the extinction of hundreds of plants and animals, including bald eagles, brown pelicans, gray wolves, grizzlies, and several species of sea turtles and whales. • 99 percent saved from extinction: Of the more than 1,400 plants and animals placed under the care of the Act over the past four decades, more than 99 percent have been saved from extinction. To date only 10 species protected under the Act have been declared extinct, and of these eight were very likely already extinct when they were granted protection. • 90 percent recovery rate: A recent study of more than 100 protected species across all 50 states found that 90 percent are meeting or exceeding federal recovery guidelines and moving toward eventual removal of protected status. • Millions of critical habitat acres set aside: Imperiled species with protected critical habitat are twice as likely to be recovering as those without.

REALTOR TIPS REINVESTING IN YOUR HOME WITH YOUR TAX REFUND!
Pipers make draw for tickets to Carrie Underwood show LERAE HAYNES The Williams Lake Pipe Band played outside Save on Foods on Sunday, where they held the draw for the ticket winners of their Carrie Underwood concert raffle. Save-On -Foods assistant store manager Gary Jackson drew the winning tickets. Grand prize winner Grant Brandson won two tickets to the concert and accommodations for two at Treasure Cove in Prince George. Susan Erlandson was the second place winner, walking away with two tickets to the concert, which was soldout in just over four minutes. Money from the raffle will be used to help send the Williams Lake Pipe Band to the ‘Piping Hot Summer Drummer’ workshop in Silverstar in July, put on by the Si-

LeRae Haynes photo mon Fraser Pipe Band. On the way home, the local band is also entering on a Grade 5 band level at the Highland Games in Kamloops. Save-On-Foods manager Gary Jackson said he was glad to help with the draw, and that having band members in the store selling tickets
for about six weeks was an example of a good community connection. “For us it’s about our involvement in the community, being a partner in the community and giving back to the community,” he explained. “People shop at our store and take care of us, and we want to
make sure we take care of them, and the things that make this the vibrant place that it is.” He said ‘congratulations’ to the two local winners, adding that he is sure they will have a wonderful time at the concert. Pipe Major Bryan Underwood said the
location for the ticket sales and the draw was a natural choice. “The whole town comes here,” he stated, adding that it was exciting that the two winners were local. “We want to send as many of our band members to ‘Piping Hot’ as possible.”

Pipeline issue pivotal, Clark says JEFF NAGEL Black Press Kinder Morgan’s proposed twinning of the Trans Mountain oil pipeline through the Lower Mainland looks more likely with the B.C. Liberals staying in power than if the NDP had won Tuesday’s election. NDP leader Adrian Dix had vowed to block a big increase in oil tanker exports from Metro Vancouver. His reversal of a previous pledge to wait for a formal project application became a major campaign issue. Speaking to reporters Wednesday, Premier Christy Clark said she believed the TV debate was the turning point of the campaign for the Liberal rebound and that the NDP’s Kinder Morgan position was a factor. Clark said voters
weren’t impressed by “the idea that you’re going to say ‘No’ to economic development before you even see it.” She stressed the province will put any Kinder Morgan proposal to the same requirements as the planned Enbridge Northern Gateway pipeline to Kitimat, including world-leading safeguards against ocean and land spills as well as a substantial share of benefits for B.C.’s risk. “The five conditions aren’t going to change,” Clark said. “Any expansion of heavy oil is going to have to meet those five conditions.” The Trans Mountain pipeline from northern Alberta to Burnaby has operated for more than 50 years but Kinder Morgan wants to nearly triple its flow to 890,000 barrels per day, resulting in many more oil tankers plying Vancouver harbour.

News Houston rancher inducted into B.C. Cowboy Hall of Fame
Black Press Frank Teer, a rancher in Houston from 1965 to 1999, was dubbed a “Ranching Pioneer” in the B.C. Cowboy Hall of Fame early this year. “He spent his life as a working cowboy, competitive in horse sports. [He was] a pioneer, a horseman, and a family man with four generations of family involvement in cowboy activities,” wrote his daughter Frances Teer in a memoir of her dad. Frank died in 1999 and in 2013 was recognized in the Cowboy Hall of Fame as a
“Ranching Pioneer.” His son Dale and grandchildren Nicole and Dallas Oben accepted the plaque award on Frank’s behalf at the Williams Lake Rodeo April 21. Frank’s memoir in the B.C. Cowboy Hall of Fame book two says, “Frank was dedicated to his family and taught his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren the cowboy way of life.” Frances says Frank was born in 1916 in Big River Saskatchewan and worked with cattle and horses from a young age, under the guidance of his Uncle
Paddy - an experienced horse veterinarian who worked in the Boar War in Africa. Frank joined the army at 26 and fought in World War II until his honourable discharge in 1945, when he went back to Big River for two years. In 1947 he came to B.C. and worked on ranches in the Clinton area for several years, where he met and married Aldythe Bates (Teer) in 1950. Frank and Aldythe bought their own 60acre ranch in 1956 just north of Clinton where their four children, Frances, Colleen, Dale and Caroline,
were born. But Frances says Frank wanted more land to raise cattle, so when he heard there were large spreads of land available in the Bulkley Valley, he applied for a veterans grant of 160 acres of land and 320 acres of grazing rights. The family of six moved to Houston in 1965, and had to start their pioneering by building a kilometrelong road from Buck Flats Road to their property. “The road was a muddy goat trail back then,” said Frances, adding that now it is the paved road known

as Teer Road. As they built up the place, Frank bought cattle, leased more land and in 1971 bought his first registered quarter horse stallion, getting his first crop of foals in 1972. In 1980 they had 120 cow-calf pairs and 22 head of horses, including six brood mares, a stallion and six good riding horses that Frank and his children rode in com-
petitions. Frances says Frank taught all of them how to train, show, rope and rodeo horses and he and his children all competed in horse shoes, rodeos and parades. “The children have been competing in every western horse competition since the mid-1970’s,” reads the B.C. Cowboy Hall of Fame book two. Franks two oldest daughters, Frances
and Colleen started the first saddle club in Houston, and spearheaded the development of the 80-acre rodeo grounds at Four Seasons Park. Frances says all Frank’s children have become knowledgable stock people and live the ranching lifestyle to this very day. His grandchildren and great-grandchildren are following the lifestyle too, she said.

Shirley was well known in the community as someone who had a wonderful smile and a positive word for all. She retired from Safeway, to enjoy a full life of traveling, being with family and dancing (her favourite activity, as a result of growing up in the West End of Vancouver, during the big band era). Shirley is survived by daughter Susan Zacharias (Paul) of WL, sons, Mark Carlson (Dawn) of Kamloops, Michael Carlson (Monique) of Princeton, stepson Shawn McMillan (Dawn) of Kaleden and cherished friend Sharon Coakley of WL, 17 grandchildren, 33 great grandchildren and 2 great great grandchildren.
