Residents ruffled over Clive proposal Council moves project forward, public hearing expected in fall Danielle Pope News staff

New UVic president aims to increase research potential Edward Hill News staff

The first week of work for Jamie Cassels included dishing pancakes to University of Victoria students and leading a six-kilometre run around the campus, an upbeat start to the tenure of UVic’s new president. Where the past year focused on UVic’s 50th anniversary, Cassels says his job is about setting the stage for the next 50 years. But the foreseeable future won’t be easy – across the board budget cuts that led to layoffs last year will likely continue. That will set the stage for the next round of union negotiations for contracts set to expire in 2014, barely two years after a

rotating strike and hard bargaining brought temporary labour peace. As UVic’s vice-president academic and provost from 2001 to 2010, Cassels is no stranger to highlevel administration of an institution with about 5,000 employees and 20,000 students. He spent the past two years in the relatively quiet position of teaching in the faculty of law, where he started at UVic 32 years ago, before throwing in his hat for president. “The top priority for me is a series of consultations on campus and in the community. I’m scheduled for 40, 50 or 60 meetings in the next few months with students, faculty, staff and the community to begin the conversation of what the next 50 years will hold,” Cassels says.

The future of The Clive development proposal is far from extinguished, as Oak Bay council pushed the project on to the next level on Monday. Council was met with a full house that packed the chambers, overflow room and even plugged the door of the municipal hall, as residents and developers turned out to hear what council would decide about one of the district’s more controversial projects. The vote: move the project on to Oak Bay’s Advisory Design Panel for consultation – a call that sparked an outcry from some members of the audience. The development, a proposed three-storey, 19-unit building that would replace the two-storey, eight-unit apartment currently at 2280 “Council promised Oak Bay Ave., was brought forward to council with us they would listen, but revisions on July 15, after the JN Development group it seems to me people went through an extensive came to the meeting consultation process with area residents. However, with their minds a motion put forward to already made up.” deny the proposal due - Peter Gooch to perceived violations with Oak Bay’s Official Community Plan was defeated by a tie vote. Further consideration of the application was then tabled until all council members could be present for the vote. At Monday’s meeting, Clive Avenue residents and community members who opposed the project showed up with pamphlets and promotion for an online petition to urge council to quash the project. “Municipal staff have warned that such action would set an extremely dangerous zoning precedent which would, in effect, remove the community safeguards and standards,” reads the pamphlet, organized by “No” spokesperson Peter Gooch. “Any lot in your Oak Bay neighbourhood could be similarly rezoned for over development. “Council promised us they would listen, but it seems to me people came to the meeting with their minds already made up,” Gooch said.

Oak Bay Police Department gets ‘helmets on heads’ Heads will be getting more attention than usual from the Oak Bay Police Department, as the force launches its new, program to encourage cyclists to protect their noggins. Operation Headstart has been developed to “get helmets on heads,” as officers give young riders who don’t own or wear bike helmets a chance to buy one in lieu of receiving a violation ticket for riding without a helmet. Two Oak Bay retailers have partnered with the police in offering a 10 per cent discount on bike helmets purchased at their stores. Oak Bay Bicycles at 1990 Oak Bay Ave. and Oak Bay Home Hardware at 1911 Oak Bay Ave. have both offered to participate in the program. “The primary goal is to promote and enforce bike safety, not just penalize people for breaking the law,” said Const. Rick Anthony. “We would much rather have safe cyclists than someone just paying a fine and likely still continuing to ride without a helmet.” Police will be targeting cyclists who are not wearing bike helmets, as required by law. With Operation Headstart, if cyclists state they don’t own a helmet, they will be offered the opportunity to participate in this helmet purchase in exchange for a ticket, and be directed to the participating retailers. The cyclist can purchase a helmet at any store of their choice, but the discount at the local retailers is an added incentive to participate, said Anthony. “This is an excellent initiative by Const. Anthony and two of our local retailers to enhance community safety,” said Chief Const. Mark Fisher. “As police officers, we see how some significant head injuries and concussions can be avoided by strapping on a helmet before heading out.” news@mondaymag.com

POLICE NEWS IN BRIEF

Some bump in the night

Oak Bay Police responded to a break and enter on Sept. 6, to a business located in the 2100block of Oak Bay Ave. The unknown culprit smashed a window, and grabbed a number of items that were within reach.

Transportation a hot thing to steal

Sharon Tiffin/News staff

Longtime École Willows School custodian Wayne Ridley feeds a catfish affectionately called Wormy. The fish has been at the school for six years with the Grade 5 kids assigned to take care of him. Ridley cared for the fish through the summer.

Police received a report of theft from a boat moored at the Royal Victoria Yacht Club on Sept. 3. Police suspected that some time during the month of August, someone stole a cooler containing assorted boating gear and two fuel containers from the boat. Also on Sept. 3, a yellow 1985 Volkswagen Westfalia van was stolen from the 2000-block of Goldsmith St. The vehicle, B.C. licence plate 171-JFR with a white roof, has not been recovered and the investigation is ongoing. Police ask anyone with information to contact the local police department.

Lock it, really

News staff

Police received another report of theft from an unlocked vehicle, this time one that was parked in the 2000-block of Rattenbury Pl. on Sept. 5. The person made off with loose change. The owner reported to police this is the third time in the past few months this has happened, though this is the first time he made a report.

It’s not unusual for David Masini to walk into his Grade 5 classroom on any given day and see the 120-gallon tank in the room is missing its resident. In fact, Wormy is known for his tricky disappearing acts. The Clarius catfish has been found flopped on the floor, hiding in the recycling bin, even skulking off behind a curtain – lucky for him, his special “walking” abilities mean that Wormy can survive on land for a number of hours. But, thanks to a new weighted lid, Masini and his class have been able to contain the adventurous fish a little more this year. “I’d have to admit, Wormy has had a very exciting life – you might even say he exceeded expectations in the classroom,” says Masini, who purchased the catfish six years ago from an aquatics store in Hillside Shopping Centre. Back then, Wormy was just a few inches long and could easily fit in a yogurt container. But when he started eating the other fish, Masini realized he would need his own space. Now, the nearly two-foot long fish has

“The question I put to people and myself is how do we do (education and research) better? What are our unique strengths? How do we build on (them)? And what sets the University of Victoria apart?” “We have to be careful not to march out a prepackaged vision of where we need to go,” he adds. “Even the president of the university can’t do a lot unless you’ve got the community working with you.” Cassels takes the helm of a university ranked best in Canada without a medical school, and labelled research university of the year in 2012. During his time as vice-president, he pressed the integration of teaching and research – enough to have a research scholarship award named in his honour – a priority he plans to expand on as president. “Hands-on learning through co-ops, clinics, and practicums, we can build even stronger educational components. I am passionate about

integrating research and education,” he says. “We have a real opportunity to say how to put (research) in the education environment.” Shaping the future of the university will continue to be tempered by declining provincial operating grants, and upward pressure on salaries and costs. UVic budget estimates project a $5.9-million funding shortfall for 201415 and a $5-million shortfall for the year after, even with increases to tuition. Last year departments and faculty cut four per cent from their budgets and are expected to do the same for the next fiscal year. In December UVic laid off a few dozen staff. Cassels says the university will know later in the fall how the budget will shake out, but he expects “more significant cuts in the next few years.” “Going forward, we face a budget challenge on one hand, and a desire of employees for appropriate compensation. It’s the challenge of any administration … to try and strike a balance and make sure employees still feel

The annual Terry Fox Run and Hair Do event is at Mile 0 this Sunday, starting at 10:30 a.m.

Canadian hero’s legacy lives on Variety of events slated for the 33rd annual Terry Fox Run Charla Huber News staff

No matter how many decades have passed since the original Marathon of Hope, each September Canadians stop to remember and honour Terry Fox. Whether it’s sitting down to watch a film, shave a head or run for the cause, there is something for everyone at this year’s Terry Fox events at Mile 0. An outdoor showing of the film Terry will kick off the festivities on Saturday, Sept. 14 at the monument of the Canadian hero. The movie will begin at dusk. Prior to the film, Johnny Vallis will perform at 7:30 p.m. “Terry is a really well-done

movie,” said Linda Johnstone, a volunteer and event organizer. “People can come out and learn so much about Terry. It also gets people in the mood for our Terry weekend.” The following day, Sunday, Sept. 15, are the Terry Fox Run and the seventh annual Terry Fox Great Canadian Hair Do based at Mile 0. The run begins at 10:30 a.m. with registration at 9 a.m. The route begins near Dallas Road and Douglas Street and participants will walk or run along Dallas Road to St. Charles Street and back to Mile 0. “I’ve never missed a run, I’ve done them all. This will be my 33rd,” said Johnstone, a retired gym teacher from Lambrick

Park secondary. This will also be Johnstone’s seventh year organizing the Hair Do event. It began as a head shave, but the name was changed to encourage people who may not be comfortable going down to the scalp to cut their hair. “We do this to continue on Terry’s dream, so many people are surviving cancer now because of all the research,” she said. “Come on out and raise some money in Terry's name.” To sign up for the Terry Fox Great Canadian Hair Do, contact Johnstone at 250-477-6545 or lindajohnstone@shaw.ca.

OUR VIEW

Gov’t can’t walk and chew gum O

ut front of the big stone building in Victoria’s Inner Harbour is where people watch Symphony Splash, where tourists snap pics, where the annual marathon has its finish line and where concerts are held on Canada Day. The grounds of the legislature are busy, except as a place of work for our 85 elected provincial representatives. With another fall sitting cancelled, MLAs will have sat in the chamber for 36 days this year. It’s good work if you can get it. Cancelling legislative sessions has become the norm for the B.C. Liberals. House leader Mike de Jong has repeated the script four times now – he has announced the cancellation of the fall sitting in 2013, 2012, 2008 and 2006. Each time, the NDP opposition registered its outrage with the media, declaring the cancellation an abdication of democracy and accusing the Liberals of trying to avoid tough issues and questions. Premier Christy Clark points out the legislature sat in the summer after the spring election and that the government will get more work done not being in session. The government apparently can’t walk and chew gum at the same time. The province is facing big questions about the direction of its energy policy, the shrinking provincial budget surplus (or increasing deficit, depending on who you talk to), increasing B.C. Hydro rates and our role as a Pacific Rim economy. No matter your political stripe, B.C. residents should be skeptical of the claim the government has no pressing legislation or issues to discuss through the fall. Whether it’s the federal Conservatives proroguing Parliament or the B.C. Liberals cancelling sessions, senior government inaction serves only to perpetuate cynicism and promote alienation of the public from politics. Our local government councillors and mayors, most who are paid relatively little and certainly don’t get the pensions and spending perks of senior elected officials, normally don’t get the luxury of cancelling public meetings. The outrage would be heard far and wide if Oak Bay council decided to avoid its chamber to skirt tough questions or “to get more work done.” Other than promoting liquefied natural gas as a future cash cow, the Liberals’ priorities and agenda for the next four years remain unclear. For a full public accounting of our rising provincial debt and struggling budget, stay tuned, five months from now.

In doing so, they voted to keep sending our tax dollars to an institution in which we do not have a single representative, rather than to invest in the things all Canadians need. Imagine what else we could do with a $100 million a year. How many new schools, bridges and hospitals could be built? How many polluted waterways could be restored and put to productive use? How many seniors could we lift out of poverty and give back the dignity they’ve been denied by Conservative cuts? Canadians know the status quo isn’t good enough and they know how we can fix it. Every province in Canada manages without an unelected upper house; so can the federal government. The Senate does nothing that cannot be done by the elected House of Commons. Change won’t be easy, but already three provincial premiers are on record in support of abolition. Here in B.C., Premier Christy Clark told reporters, “We don’t really need a Senate.” The recent Senate scandals are nothing new, but for many Canadians they’re the last straw. More and more, we are seeing the Senate for what it is: a vestigial organ that adds nothing to our democracy – and sometimes gets in the way. It’s time to pull the plug.

LETTERS

Rookie Green MLA explains his voting record Re: Weaver’s actions somehow ignored (Letters, Sept. 6) I thank Mr. Faris for challenging me to justify why I voted in support of the B.C. budget on July 8. The motion on which I voted was deemed to be a confidence motion in the government. Were the motion to fail (for example in the case of a minority government), we would be heading into another general election. The B.C. Liberals proposed

this same budget prior to the election and got re-elected. B.C. voters had an opportunity to elect another party but chose to re-elect the Liberals for four more years. I felt it was important to support British Columbians in this regard. Over the course of my campaign, I said numerous times that I would work with whichever party formed

government. I do not believe that opposing the budget that the Liberals ran on (and won on) a mere eight weeks after the election would be fulfilling this promise. During the campaign I also stated that I wanted to do politics differently. Opposition members are Andrew afforded the opportunity Weaver to vote against everything without having to propose very much. I feel that I

better serve the constituents of Oak Bay-Gordon Head and the citizens of B.C. by supporting the overall budget, thereby showing confidence in the newly elected government, while continuing to raise concerns about the aspects I find troublesome. Mr. Faris is incorrect in implying that projected liquid natural gas revenues are in the 2013-14 budget. They would not materialize until well after the next election. For reasons I outlined in the

election campaign, I remain convinced that such hypothetical revenues are at best wishful thinking. I continue to believe that the future prosperity of British Columbia lies in our clean tech sector, sustainable forestry and the small business community. Of course, as we move forward I will be reassessing my position on each new budget introduced into the legislature. Andrew Weaver MLA Oak Bay-Gordon Head

As we watch our children head off for the start of another school year, we should pause and consider the state of education in the rest of the world. While Canadians enjoy one of the best education systems that exist, globally 57 million children of primary school age still remain out of school; that’s almost twice the population of Canada denied a future. The Global Partnership for Education is the only multilateral partnership that exists to help bring down that appalling number. Over the last decade, it has put an additional 23 million children in school, trained 413,000 teachers and constructed more than 37,000 classrooms for boys and girls. Canada helps fund this program and these numbers are an example of Canadian tax dollars making a big difference. But the numbers are still sobering: globally, 66 million girls are not offered any schooling at all. When girls get an education, they are six times less likely to be married off as children, and have 2.2 fewer children. For every extra year a girl stays in school, her income can increase by 15 to 25m per cent. The Global Partnership for

Education is slated for funding renewal and it’s imperative our federal government increases its contribution. During the past funding round, the Global Partnership achieved barely half of its needs, resulting in another lost generation. Compared to the economic return, the cost of educating children is small, and girls especially need our help to bring much needed changes to backward and illiterate communities. Education is a human right and Canada can help make that possible. Nathaniel Poole Victoria

Vulnerable women remain targets Re: PEERS loses drop-in centre, social program (News, Sept.4) I have long held that our attitude towards prostitutes reflects our attitude towards women in general. This further cut in service by PEERS shows we have learned nothing from the Pickton affair – women remain potential targets, carefully watched lest they show signs of provocation.

The end of summer usually marks the end of one of Victoria’s favourite pastimes: the farmers’ market. But as of this weekend, conscientious shoppers will be able to satisfy their “shop local” itch year-round at the Victoria Public Market at The Hudson, an indoor market in the basement of the iconic Hudson building on Douglas Street. “We’re still working on a green grocer and talking to a few interested butchers, but we’ve got an amazing list of vendors,” said market general manager Maryanne Carmack. One of those vendors is The French Oven, run by Nick Castro and Sandra Van Vliet. The couple began selling their traditional French pastries at farmers’ markets around the Capital Region this

Confirmed vendors include Silk Road Tea, Salt Spring Island Cheese, LaCocina de Mama Oli, Island Spice Trade, Roast and Victoria Pie Co.

By ROBERT MOyES arts@mondaymag.com

he Arab-Israeli conflict seems intractable at the best of times and may appear more hopeless than ever after watching The Attack, a heart-wrenching drama about love and loss that has a suicide bombing at its core. The central character is Amin Jaafari, a distinguished Arab surgeon who lives in Tel Aviv and is a paragon of humanism in a world where intolerant fundamentalism is the norm. Ten minutes into the film there is a terrorist bombing in a restaurant that kills 16 people and brings many more injured to the hospital where Amin works. That act of political terror suddenly turns personal when evidence indicates it was Amin’s kindly and loving wife, Siham, who blew herself up that day. At first in denial, the emotionally devastated Amin eventually heads to Nablus in the Occupied Territories to connect with family and try to discover how and by whom Siham was radicalized. What he discovers causes him to reexamine his life, his marriage, and everything he thought he knew about his life in the Middle East. Attack is one of those quietly devastating films that starts slowly, drawing you deeper and deeper into a world where extremist ideologies have a compelling emotional power that simplifies arguments to an us-versus-them paradigm. We go on a fraught journey as Amin replays scenes in his mind, trying to understand how his soulmate could have chosen this secret and deadly path without him ever knowing. By the film’s end, a once happy and fulfilled Amin finds himself not only emotionally gutted but also alienated from the fierce beliefs of both Palestinians and Israelis.

Victoria’s Sears Home Store

Long-time Sears Home professional thrives as new senior sales manager

With a natural enthusiasm for sales, customer service and helping his co-workers thrive, Martin Gagnon has found the perfect niche as Senior Sales Manager at Victoria’s Sears Home Martin Store. Gagnon Originally from Valleyfield, welcomes Quebec, southwest of you to Sears Montreal, Gagnon left Home Store home at 17, travelling the in Victoria world with the Canadian Navy for five years. His travels landed him in Victoria, where upon meeting his partner he decided the time was right to settle down and embrace the next phase of his career. A naturally vibrant, outgoing person, retail sales was the perfect fit for Gagnon, who learned and trained with several national companies before joining the Sears family 12 years ago. Here he embraced the opportunity to bring his creative approach first to the furniture department, then major appliances, achieving the million-dollar sales mark in both departments. Why retail? “I like at the end of the day what I have accomplished,” says Gagnon, who when not at work might be founding hiking with his Cairn terrier, Coco, cooking or travelling with his partner. “I’m successful if I’ve found out what the customer needs and at the end of the sale, they say, ‘That was the best sales experience I’ve had.’” Being able to draw on his enthusiasm and creativity has been key to his success and his joy in coming to work each day. “If you see five sales people, you will remember the one who is a little different,” Gagnon explains. Rather than seeing only the straight line between a problem and a solution, for example, “I like to try a different approach with situations I come across.” Paired with his approach is his dedication to continually keeping up-to-date on new products, trends and Sears initiatives. When the opportunity arose last year to move into a management role, the next step was a right one. “I want to be able to share that knowledge and my experience with others,” explains Gagnon, a long-time trainer who is also on the lookout for his next great sales person to join the Sears team. He’s also excited about the new focus Sears has adopted, and he encourages people to come see all that is new at Sears Home. “We’re embracing style, design and quality – this is going to be the new Sears.” What makes Gagnon so successful at all he does? “He is so passionate,” Sears Home store manager Margaret Ramsay says of Gagnon. “He is passionate about the products and he’s passionate about customer service, with a very fun, positive approach.”

ugust and early September have been like a gift to Paul Rodgers. The front man for Bad Company, which begins the home stretch of its busy 40th anniversary tour with shows tomorrow (Sept. 14) in Penticton and Sunday at Esquimalt’s Bullen Field, is enjoying the perks of living in the Okanagan. “I’ve suddenly decided September is my favourite month,” he said this week, commenting on the stunning late summer weather. Having grown up in England and toured the world musically countless times, he has settled in B.C. with his wife, Cynthia, who hails from the Okanagan. Rodgers, now 63, became a Canadian citizen in 2011. “I love B.C., it’s absolutely beautiful,” he said. “I’m still discovering lakes and places to go. It’s also very English in many respects. There’s a strong connection between the two countries. It’s like England with a lot more space.” The band, also including original members Mick Ralphs on guitar and drummer Simon Kirke, kicked off the anniversary tour in mid-June with a performance on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno. For a group of guys in their 60s, their pace is nothing short of astounding: 16 shows in July, a few in August to allow band members to enjoy a summer break, then seven more dates in September, winding up with a show at the Los Angeles County Fair. While this year’s focus is on celebrating 40 years of making music together, touring as Bad Company has been an almost annual event in recent years.

That means they’ve stayed musically tight, Rodgers said. “It’s been awesome. On a musical level, it’s been incredible. When we hit the stage, it’s kind of like unleashing hell.” Many of the concerts on this year’s tour have sold out. A number of them featured opening act Lynyrd Skynyrd, another hugely popular band from the 1970s. Such Bad Company hits as “Rock and Roll Fantasy,” “Feel Like Making Love” and “Shooting Star” still resonate with audience members,” Rodgers said. That speaks to why many classic rock bands from past eras have begun touring again and are doing well at the gate, he added. “I think they were very good,” he said. “But we did really pay our dues. You had to go out and play, play, play all the time. But it is possible now to have your 15 minutes of fame without having played a lot of shows. Our music is real and it comes from a point of passion.” Most of the shows Bad Company puts on these days are in smaller venues, where concert goers can be closer to the band. Regardless of the performance space, Rodgers said it’s important that they put out “110 per cent” for the audience. “You want to be sure it’s great music and that people have a good time. I want them to be knocked out, actually.” Bad Company, with opening act Chilliwack, play Sept. 15 at Bullen Field. Concert time is 6 to 9 p.m. Tickets are $83.50 or $121 for VIP admission, available online at hightideconcerts.net, rmts.bc.ca; by phone at 1-888-222-6608 or at Ditch Records and Lyle’s Place.

Europe’s Beauty Secret

More than 500 sign petition against Clive Clinically Proven!

Continued from Page A1

Email editor@oakbaynews.com ga

Starting at age 21, collagen diminishes by 1% per year. By age 30, signs of reduced collagen on skin, hair and nails become visible, not to mention the increase risk of fracture for bones. Say the words “healthy bones,” and the first word that probably pops up is calcium, but did you know that bones are made up of 30% collagen? Collagen provides strength and flexibility to bones. When collagen diminishes – your risk of fracture increases! Now, genuine collagen regeneration is possible with clinically proven BioSil™. BioSil, a patented cholinestabilized orthosilicic acid (ch-OSA®) complex, helps your body to generate its own collagen to provide support for denser and more flexible bones as well as beautiful skin, hair and nails. BioSil has been tested in rigorous double-blind placebo controlled trials for both efficacy and safety. Regenerate Collagen with BioSil, the only clinically proven product with ch-OSA – the most absorbable form of silicon.

Fuller, thicker hair… One supplement I have

discovered recently and fell in love with is Biosil. I can safely say that this stuff made a huge difference in my hair…Whatever grew was fuller, thicker…I noticed a dramatic improvement in not only the quality of the new hair growth but the rate at which it was growing…

What do you think?

Fewer lines and wrinkles, thicker hair, stronger nails and denser bones.

Collagen is the key. Molecular biologists have pinpointed the key structural protein for creating smooth skin, thick strong hair, and strong nails. It’s your body’s beauty protein, collagen. During youth, you have a rich abundance of collagen. In addition, the collagen forms itself in a resilient “tight mesh” matrix. This “ideal” collagen condition prevents wrinkles from forming, gives skin elasticity, helps create thick, beautiful hair and strong nails. But over the years, collagen diminishes.

With more than 60 letters sent to council before the meeting, along with more than 500 signatures on a petition and from the opposition, Coun. Kevin Murdoch maintained his position against the current proposal, stating that council’s responsibility is to hear residents concerns. “I just don’t like the message it sends when letters and complaints don’t matter and we go ahead with something anyway,” Murdoch said. “I don’t want this (project) to fail, and maybe we’re almost there, but right now I am hearing too many concerns to let that go.” Coun. John Herbert retained a similar stance, stating that moving the project onto the panel would “waste weeks of time” and result in the same thing: council being forced to make a decision on a project that still violates certain perceptions. “If we want the developer to get serious about making real, workable changes, we Nils Jensen have to play some polite hardball here, and say we are serious,” Herbert said. “But if you want an excuse to give the appearance of action, there you go. To me, this is a joke.” With acclaim for the project by Coun. Michelle Kirby, the changed vote of Coun. Cairine Green – from no to yes, Coun. Pam Copley and Mayor Nils Jensen, and a supportive nod from Coun. Tara Ney – who was absent from the July meeting – the project moved forward. While Jensen pointed out that assessment from the panel doesn’t mean The Clive will happen yet, he and some other councillors noted the move as a success. “Change is a process, not an event, and this has been turned into a huge event,” said Green, who changed her vote after listening to young people at her son’s wedding express a desire to “afford” to live in Oak Bay. “It’s unfair to demonize the developer – that’s what they do, develop. … Instead of creating enemies in our community, let’s work together to see this change happen.” The project will come back to council prior to a public hearing this fall. news@mondaymag.com

Tour supporters now Tour riders Sidney North Saanich RCMP reserve constables ready to fight childhood cancer Devon MacKenzie News staff

As with many Tour de Rock riders, the motivation for Terry Curry to get involved stems from personal experiences with cancer, including a battle of his own. Curry is the oldest rider on the tour at 66 and not only battled prostate cancer himself, after being diagnosed in 2005, but he also lost a brother to childhood cancer when he was young. “In 1965 I lost my 15-year-old brother to leukemia,” Curry said. “He was diagnosed in September and by June he passed away. There was no real treatment then, nothing like compared to now.” Curry said the memories of his brother and the thought of offering hope to children battling the same disease spurred him on to apply to participate in the Tour. “I had always wanted to ride in the Tour de Rock but events in my life just never lined up,” he said. Curry spent 29 years with the RCMP and retired in 2007, after which he began working as a reserve constable at the airport with the Sidney North Saanich RCMP. When those positions were cut this past spring, Curry began working with the RCMP’s South Island Integrated Marine Unit. He’s thankful the stars finally aligned for him to be

able to participate in the Tour. “I am working a few days a week doing that right now which has given me the flexibility to train for the Tour. I was lucky enough to be able to take off time in September and October for fundraising and the ride itself,” he said. Curry’s teammate from the Saanich Peninsula, also a reserve constable with the Sidney North Saanich RCMP, is Alan Neville-Rutherford. The two met through work connections, with Curry working as the RCMP reserve constable for the airport and Neville-Rutherford working for G4S, which handles airport security. Personal connections with cancer are also what spurred Neville-Rutherford to get involved.

“The main motivation for me to ride this year was that I had a cousin who passed away from lymphoma a year after being diagnosed,” Neville-Rutherford said. “We were very close. He had three teenage kids and was the same age as me so it was a real eye-opener.” Neville-Rutherford has been a member of the Sidney North Saanich RCMP auxiliary since 2006 and an avid supporter of the Tour de Rock for many years. “You could usually find me at the Thursday (Sidney) Night Market selling Tour de Rock T-shirts at the RCMP booth and people always asked me if I was the Tour de Rock rider,” he said. “I’m happy to be able to say that I am now, and I’m hoping to do every-

thing I can to raise as much as possible for the pediatric cancer.” The two teammates are training three days a week with the 19 other riders, and credit their trainers in getting them in top shape for the Tour, which begins Sept. 21. “Neither of us ever thought we’d be able to ride the speeds and distances we do. It’s really amazing how much the trainers have helped us and guided us,” Neville-Rutherford said. “Every day we ride it’s a new challenge but a doable one, when you think about what those kids go through. At the end of the day, it really comes down to that — supporting each other as a team so we can raise as much as possible for the kids.” reporter@peninsulanewsreview.com

UVic Vikes midfielder Cam Hundal jumps over Trinity Western Spartan goalie Evan Lowther during Sunday’s game at Centennial Stadium, a 4-0 Vikes win.

VICTORIA

The goal posts have been installed at Centeinnal Stadium as the UVic Vikes men’s rugby team hosts crosstown rivals James Bay Athletic Association in Vancouver Island Barnard Cup competition tonight (Sept. 13). Kickoff is 7 p.m. The Vikes have a promising squad to challenge for the Barnard Cup and provincial Rounsefell Cup title this year. But the Vikes will face the same challenges as previous years with players such as Nathan Hirayama, Phil Mack and Sean Duke committed to the national program for IRB International sevens, the IRB November test window for 15s, and the Langford-based Americas Rugby Championship in October. This weekend the Vikes will be without Hirayama, Luke McCLoskey, Shea Wakefield and Dustin Dobravsky, who all travel with the B.C. Bears to Ontario for a Canadian Rugby Championship match versus the Blues. The Vikes women’s rugby team visits Cowichan on Saturday, the first match of the Island’s senior women’s fall schedule. The Velox Valhallians men’s team hosts Castaway Wanderers at 2:45 p.m on Saturday while the Velox Valkyries women visit Nanaimo.
