Valentines reminisce over a lifetime of love Couple celebrating 65 years together say respect is key to a long, happy marriage Christine van Reeuwyk News Staff

Byron Barker is a suit and tie kind of guy. It’s readily apparent as he greets me at the door while wife of nearly 65 years Beth takes my jacket. Perhaps his penchant for ties is part of what makes him a popular cashier at Monterey Recreation. It’s an endearing facet of his character, but not the one that drew them together many years ago. “I saw her walk by the door of the commons “You have to have room at UVic,” Byron strong feelings to keep a said. “I pursued her.” “Then I pursued him,” marriage. I love going Beth laughs. “I never down the street with saw anybody after him. He was a lot of fun you Byron’s hand in mine. That’ll always be there.” know.” Saturday they’ll - Beth Barker celebrate Valentine’s with dinner at the Fireside Grill, where Byron swears the “best chef in town” works. “The food is so good and I know what I’m eating,” Beth says. They figure the getting ready for a night out should fill the day. It’ll harken back to their early days of dating and marriage. They didn’t have a lot of cash and spent time walking and talking. When they were flush, they headed for nightclubs, for example one on View Street, where they lived for a time, stands out. “We loved to dance. Loved swing music, we still do of course. We went to every jazz festival here, Dixieland jazz. We loved jitterbugging.” They’ve danced their way through 65 years of marriage come Sept. 23 and feel keeping a marriage, and a happy one at that, requires only the basics. “Respect. Respect for your mate’s wishes. We just love each other very much,” Beth says. “You have to have strong feelings to keep a marriage. I love going down the street with Byron’s hand in mine. That’ll always be there.” “We have common interests,” Byron adds. The couple married on Sept. 23, 1950 when Beth was 23 and Byron 22, with one false start where she didn’t show up for a civil ceremony.

Beth and Byron Barker celebrate 65 years of marriage this fall. The key, Beth says, is respect for your spouse. “I kicked myself for not going down there,” Beth says. “Once you’ve decided you’re getting married, you’re getting married.” They agree today, that in hindsight, the second chance was more the wedding the couple sought.They wound up with a small service performed by a pastor friend and reception put on by the pastor and his wife the second go-round. “Our spending money was $20 Byron’s dad gave us,” Beth laughs. “We went to a nightclub outside of Port Alberni with my brother and his girlfriend,” Byron recalls. They’ve since spent five decades living in or near Oak Bay but “sort of went around in a circle,” Beth says, travelling the Island from Cumberland to Tofino and back to Sooke, where Byron taught. He retired from Central junior (now middle school). When he had a stroke more than a decade ago, a

daughter decided Byron needed some activities in his life. The family discovered Monterey Recreation Centre. “Six months later he was vice-president,” Beth recalls. He also served as president of the computer club. Between them they attend exercise class, belong to the singalong group, Note-ables, and the garden club. Byron served as president of the seniors association and for the last dozen years he’s worked as a volunteer at the Fern Cafe, where he is to this day a cashier. “I enjoy it – the people,” Byron says. “All the ladies love him,” interjects Beth, who also volunteers at the cafe. Fun seems to seep into most everything this couple does, even offering sage advice to the young. “Young people, they go into a marriage expecting too much,” Beth says. “Until the end of time the wife is going to have to give a little.” cvanreeuwyk@oakbaynews.com

Aquatic wall climber extraordinaire Samuel Kessner earned the honour of being first up the new equipment at Oak Bay Rec. The aquatic climbing wall officially opened on Family Day when Kessner clambered to the top and tore the ceremonial ribbon off. “That really made his day,” said Dr. Jim Force, who first attempted the feat. Force earned first crack at the wall as president of the Rotary Club of Oak Bay that funded the $13,000 needed to get the “wish list” item for Recreation Oak Bay. “(Climbing) is an activity where you have to be thoughtful. It builds their confidence and physical strength and ability,” said Force, who holds a PhD in education. “It’s really self directed and makes failure OK,” he adds, noting that a fall means a splash and a return to the back of the line to try again. The lineup when it opened Feb. 9 indicates early success. “I saw this huge lineup full of anticipation to get into the pool. They couldn’t wait to get in there,” said Janet Barclay, manager of recreation services. “It was really neat to see it in action … the mental and physical effort.” For her the packed pool represented a small victory in the ongoing battle with “screen time” in the recreation world. It’s a battle Force feels Recreation Oak Bay, and the pool in particular, fights well. “They have a combination of structured programs and the unstructured play,” Force said. “Play is a really important part of (a

It’s just one of the considerations that went into the purchase. “We are a smaller pool. It really fit well and doesn’t take up a lot of real estate,” Barclay said. “We have a range of ages and abilities and it’s challenging for everybody.” For more information on swim times, call Recreation Oak Bay at 250-595-7946 or visit recreationoakbay.ca cvanreeuwyk@oakbaynews.com

Students top international competition Gustavson School of Business team takes top spot at World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland Dan Ebenal News Staff

A group of University of Victoria business students are on top of the world. MBA students Jesal Shah, Andrew Spence, Susan Laidlaw and Karin Feldkamp in the Sardul S. Gill Graduate School at the UVic Gustavson School of Business took first place in the Corporate Knights’ Business for a Better World case study competition at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. The students were tasked with modifying the sustainability practices of the Novartis pharmaceutical company in order to improve its ranking of 99th. “There’s 12 metrics that they measure companies on: for example water consumption, waste, energy consumption, GHG emissions, gender diversity, things like that,” said Shah. Saul Klein, dean of the Gustavson School of Business,

Dan Ebenal/News Staff

Andrew Spence, left, Susan Laidlaw and Jesal Shah were part of the Gustavson School of Business team (along with Karin Feldkamp) to take first place in a competition at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. said the school is extremely proud of the students’ achievements, tackling the project outside of their regular studies.

“The idea that a group of MBA students can look at that and come up with a comprehensive set of solutions and recommendations to Novartis

to go forward is a wonderful opportunity for them and a great achievement,” he said. “If there’s any competition that I’m really proud that our students

would win it would be this one.” Laidlaw said the balancing of ambitious targets with pragmatic suggestions brought success to the team, along with the importance placed on sustainability at Gustavson. “One of the factors coming from Gustavson is that sustainability is woven throughout all of our courses,” she said. “Our strategy course has a sustainability aspect, even our accounting course has sustainability woven into it, so the fact that this was a sustainability-driven case actually fits right into the education we’ve received here.” The competition earned a $10,000 prize for the students, but Klein said the reward for the school itself could be even greater. “The World Economic Forum at Davos is a major event for global leaders everywhere. And to have our students be able to participate in that event and showcase the school is something that we couldn’t buy that kind of publicity,” said Klein. “It reflects something about who we are as a school, that we have a very strong focus on issues of sustainability, social responsibility, in a global context.” editor@oakbaynews.com

Oak Bay takes province to task over deer control Christine van Reeuwyk News Staff

Speakers called for a halt to the deer cull and Oak Bay council crafted a resolution to ask the province for more help with its deer issues on Monday night. Among the seven speakers at the council meeting Feb. 10 were a pair of Saanich residents as well as visitors Liz White and Barry McKay of Animal Alliance Canada. “There’s nothing new here,” McKay said of the rift in the community. “Culling doesn’t work and sometimes has the paradoxical cycle of increased population,” he added. Oak Bay resident speakers also called for a halt to the cull, including Kristy Kilpatrick who reiterated concerns over lack of signage, public education and a survey of the community. Kilpatrick added she feels those leading the pilot project are

presenting “false choices” between culling and doing nothing. “It takes courage to stop things midway,” she said. A supporter of the cull spoke last in the 20-minute public participation period. Andrew Stinson noted that deer was a hot topic during the election and the mayoral candidate in favour of a cull won the vote. “I firmly believe Oak Bay has a mandate to carry out the cull,” he said. “Do not listen to the minority of Oak Bay.” While the opponents of the cull were greeted with applause, Stinson’s comments were booed. The crowd stayed to hear Oak Bay’s plan to ask the Association of Vancouver Island and Coastal Communities to take the province to task on its deer. During the AVICC annual general meeting and convention, municipal governments gather to bring forward

issues and concerns from their individual communities through resolutions and debates. Oak Bay will ask AVICC to request the province provide resources including conservation officers and urban wildlife biologists, and build necessary partnerships with Health Canada and local governments to address deer over population. Coun. Michelle Kirby made the motion that asserts the resources, authority and responsibility to manage ungulate populations lies with the province. The preamble also says the combination of favourable habitats, no natural predators and the inability to allow hunting have contributed to expanding populations and exacerbated the problem of human-deer conflict in urban settings. “This is a burden on our small municipality and we don’t have that

expertise,” said Kirby. “We can’t meet the needs of the community. … They’re downloading this responsibility and they need to own it.” It’s a resolution that has been put forth before by communities such as Kimberley, Kirby found, but this includes an angle of creating partnerships and including Health Canada, which Oak Bay believes could allow for immunocontraception to be considered a viable option. “I consider it a symbolic motion,” said Coun. Eric Zhelka “I don’t see this will result in any action. At least we can try.” The deadline for resolutions to the AVICC is Feb. 23, and as per usual practice Oak Bay’s motion will go out to other councils in search of support. All members of council plan to attend the AVICC annual general meeting and convention in Courtenay from April 10 to 12. cvanreeuwyk@oakbaynews.com

Unfounded fears put health at risk

It was just about a year ago that B.C. had to deal with an outbreak of measles, with about 100 cases popping up in the Fraser Valley, and a few more scattered around the province. This year, it’s Ontario’s turn. Though it’s still a common disease in many areas of the Third Medical World, the once common childhood ailment is rarely community seen in Canada these days. convinced There is one reason for that: Vaccinations. vaccinations Complications from are safe measles include ear or respiratory infections like pneumonia, and in extreme cases, brain inflammation, blindness and deafness or, rarely, death. Measles accounted for 500,000 deaths worldwide in the year 2000. Mass immunizations have drastically reduced that figure. By 2012, the number of measles deaths had been reduced by 80 per cent. But the number of children that are being vaccinated is shrinking — many parents willing to risk their children’s health, and that of others, by refusing to have their kids vaccinated. More than 15 years ago, a British doctor, Andrew Wakefield, suggested the measles vaccine, long proven safe, might cause autism. His study has long since been found not only inaccurate, but fraudulent. Yet, with the help of the Internet, the scare continues to grow. Experts are concerned that people who refuse one vaccine may be spurning others, setting communities up for outbreaks of other dangerous diseases that are slower to propagate like diphtheria and whooping cough. The typical course for common measles, especially with modern medicines, is relatively mild. But why put your child through even that, and put others at risk, over a misplaced fear of a simple vaccination? While we don’t advocate mandatory vaccination, we do advocate relying on the advice of doctors and other reliable sources rather than misplaced faith in the veracity of the Internet.

Deer popular with international visitors I have been an international homestay host in Victoria/Oak Bay, for 10 years. I have hosted dozens of International students from all over the globe. These students come from cities where wildlife has all but been decimated. Our beautiful island has been selected by these students, in part, because of our green landscape and proximity to nature. They are in awe of the majestic animals that live in our midst and in our ocean. They are constantly taking photos and posting them on Facebook. The Oak Bay deer posts have been seen in every country in the world, accompanied by the thankful comments of these students that they have been witness to such beauty. Some of the international brochures even feature photographs of the urban deer, raccoons and eagles that we take for granted. One student from Korea told me that she would have to travel for three hours to see what we are blessed with in our own neighbourhood. So I speak on behalf of them when I emphatically oppose an urban deer cull in Oak Bay. They have attended the anti-cull rallies, posted photos on Facebook and written me from Switzerland, Saudi Arabia, China and Taiwan to add their voices to the protest. Oak Bay council must be aware that this is a very negative and barbaric impression to give to our international visitors, and they have asked me to speak for them. Patricia Hirsch Oak Bay

Talk is cheap

As a longtime Oak Bay resident, taxpayer, swimmer and winner of

the 1956 “candy on the ruler race”, I would like to take issue with a letter to the editor entitled “Couple cancels stay”, printed in the Feb. 4 edition of the Oak Bay News. If the letter writers are truly serious about making some kind of significant impact on the well-being of Oak Bay’s surplus deer population, maybe they would be willing to provide Oak Bay with the funds necessary to capture and transport all, or even some, of our deer to their neighbourhood. Should they choose to do so, I’m sure the good people of Oak Bay would be more than happy to throw in a few surplus squirrels just to sweeten the bargain. Bruce Cline Oak Bay

Danger overstated The mayor of Oak Bay has started to cull 25 very dangerous deer. What a relief. Now the seniors can safely walk their dogs at night without being attacked by a deer, children can play in their yards without stomping in deer feces and Oak Bay motorists can speed with reckless abandon knowing they won’t ever again hit a deer. What a hero. Jean Ranger Oak Bay

Get over it Re: The letters in the Feb. 6 Oak Bay News “An appeal for district to reconsider deer cull” and “Cull leaves lasting image.” My young children were also once upset with the killing of deer. No longer so. They grew up.

As far as the mayor is concerned, he’s got better things to do than hate deer. You see, he’s all grown up too. Regarding “how he will be portrayed and remembered for years to come”; it won’t be as one who caves in to vocal minorities. See y’all at the barbecue. John Phillips Oak Bay

Blame it on the deer I must correct the two readers who commented on dog poop in the school yards. That is not dog poop, it is deer feces. How do I know? The mayor said there is deer feces in the parks and yards, so why should I doubt the mayor? Also being a senior, I have purchased bear spray and an air horn to accompany me on my nighttime walk to protect me from deer attacks, again as stated by the mayor. Before obtaining these items I was much too afraid to venture out after dark. William Jesse Oak Bay

Red Barn tests Oak Bay market October opening slated for store Dan Ebenal News Staff

A new player is stepping into the Oak Bay grocery market. Red Barn has announced plans to open a location at 1933 Oak Bay Ave. in the fall. “We thought Oak Bay would be a great market for the Red Barn brand to enter into,” said Russ Benwell, one of the owners of the franchise which has three stores in Saanich and

one in Colwood. “We’re very excited to be coming into that area,we really don’t have anything near the downtown and we identified the Oak Bay area as a key place for our expansion,” said Benwell. He said the Oak Bay store will be similar to the other Red Barn locations, with a sandwich bar, all of their smokehouse items, fresh produce and Red Barn’s famous bacon. “We want to go back to the way it was in the older times where you could go into a small farm market or a smaller momand-pop shop and get all the

necessities for your dinner,” said Benwell. “We’re going to support the local movement where possible, Island raised, Island grown, Island made first.” He expects to have the 6,000 square-foot market open by October and is anticipating upwards of 40 employees at the location. “There’s been nothing new to that marketplace for a very long time,” said Benwell. “This is a complete new market to that Victoria-Oak Bay border. “We’re really excited to be a new player in that market.” editor@oakbaynews.com

Local MLAs respond to throne speech Daniel Palmer Black Press

The B.C. government presented a cautious preview of the coming year with its speech from the throne Tuesday, announcing the formation of a rural advisory committee while lowering expectations for mining and natural gas exports. Read by Lieutenant Governor Judith Guichon to begin the spring legislature session, the speech stated the appointed rural advisory committee would “provide independent and impartial advice on helping rural B.C. increase opportunities, manage growth and meet its full potential in communities big and small.” The speech also made reference to a five-year action plan for the “agrifoods sector,” which has experienced $1 billion in growth in the past three years. An agrifood advisory committee will continue to work on a fish and seafood strategy as well. Agriculture critic and Saanich South MLA Lana Popham, who is leading an opposition standing committee on agriculture and food, said the government’s reliance on closed-door advisory committees does little to foster public input.

“Agriculture is always a piecemeal project in B.C.,” Popham said. “There’s a committee here, some projects there, but it never relates to a long-term agricultural plan. … On the Saanich peninsula alone, the meat regulations haven’t been fixed since they were fiddled with in 2007. Farmers can’t process meat locally. We have the ability and interest to do more here, but that’s something I asked the minister to focus on a few years ago, and it hasn’t been done.” Premier Christy Clark said the government will soon start construction on the $8 billion Site C hydroelectric dam and revamp the education system to fill an anticipated skills gap. “We’re sticking to the plan, and we’ve been successful with that plan,” Clark told reporters. “I know it doesn’t make great headlines in the newspapers, but I don’t think we want to change so we can help you get a news story.” The government will also allow a temporary tax hike on annual incomes of $150,000 or more to expire, resulting in $230 million less in annual tax revenue, said Rob Fleming, B.C.

Green MLA says government fails to address MSP premium reform Continued from Page A5

“Tax cuts for the top two per cent of B.C. income earners does nothing to help middle class families pay their bills or build prosperity,” Fleming said. “I think what we’re seeing is Christy Clark has done nothing but campaign since 2011, and people are finally seeing this government has no focus. Their ridiculous 2013 campaign slogan around LNG has come crashing down.” As the government continues to await investment decisions for liquefied natural gas facilities, the speech notes that LNG “could create 100,000 jobs and the

revenues to eliminate our debt,” adding that exports are needed to maintain a gas industry that already employs 13,000 people. Oak Bay-Gordon Head MLA and B.C. Green Andrew Weaver said the government failed to address MSP premium reform, a poverty reduction plan or a housing first strategy in the throne speech. “There are plenty of things this government could and should be doing right now to actively strengthen and diversify our province,” Weaver said in a blog post. “Without fail, whenever an idea surfaces

Clark’s intention to keep cutting “red tape,” an obsession of the B.C. Liberals since 2001. “They cut red tape at Mount Polley,” Horgan said of gaps in inspection that predated the collapse of the mine’s tailings dam last summer. The government confirmed it is about to table a third straight balanced budget on Feb. 17, and hinted at new spending aimed at expanding the economy. The government also plans to launch a new “medal of good citizenship” to recognize those who donate their time and money to improve their communities. -with files from Tom Fletcher

about how our government could address a pressing social or environmental issue, they trot out rhetoric about how the best way to address it is to grow our economy. The government has been saying for years that the economy is growing. Yet they continue to wait for it to start offering solutions to crises in funding for education, health care and social services.” The speech referred to five new mines opening since 2011, but avoided mention of northeast coal mines that have closed due to low commodity prices that also threaten the operation of metal mines in B.C.

ucts like the Grand Cherokee. With 420 lb.-ft. or torque, this new “EcoDiesel” has the same output as Ford’s Ecoboost but not the same towing capacity. Rated at 9200 lbs. this truck will be perfect for buyers who want impressive fuel economy and good towing capacity; a balance of usability and thriftiness. This engine has not been rated yet for fuel economy but, thanks to a standard 8-speed automatic transmission, the new EcoDiesel is going to get better numbers than the already class-leading gasoline V6 RAM. Having driven both the Jeep Grand Cherokee diesel and this RAM, I find the gearing and attitude of the RAM much more dynamic and actually inspiring to drive. In real world driving situations, this big luxurious truck can actually return fuel economy of 10L/100km without babying the engine. Verdict RAM has seen huge sales growth over the last few years due to constant improvements instead of waiting years to update its rigs.

All-wheel drive fun and then some By Alexandra Straub

Montebello, Quebec – The 2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek, Forester and Outback have no problem showing the snow who is the boss. They don’t even break a sweat if you’re commuting on surfaces that yield minimal traction or when putting the Subaru Symmetrical AWD system through its paces on a winter off-road course. Let’s take a moment to talk about what make’s Subaru’s system so potent in the snow or on slippery surfaces. To start, Subaru designed its AWD system for perfect balance. The boxer engine, transmission, and differentials create a symmetrical layout left to right. This increases stability in every situation, as there is less weight transfer from side to side. Also, unlike the competitors, each vehicle is designed from the ground up to have a symmetrical AWD system as a standard feature. This makes the chassis and powertrain a harmonious match. Other competitors often start with a 2WD system and add AWD to the same chassis. It’s that kind of symmetry and engineering that instills confi-

dence in Subaru owners. More than 96 percent of Subaru vehicles sold in the last 10 years are still on the road today. The symmetry allows for predictable and stable power delivery to each wheel, which was apparent in my test drive. With the traction control (VDC) on, you might experience a little bit of slippage if you go into a corner too hot. But within moments, you’ll have your back end back where it should be. Yes, it’s a little bit of a killjoy if you’re honing your skills to qualify for a driver’s seat in WRC, but for 99.9 percent of the owners, it’s a saving grace. Subaru’s active systems do their best to keep the driver and its passengers feeling relaxed and calm behind the wheel. Such was the case as the temperatures in Quebec plummeted below -15C. The frigid yet abundantly sunny day seemed like a perfect pair for taking the aforementioned Subarus for a test. Starting the day with the XV Crosstrek, which has an MSRP of $24,995, was a treat. This light-on-its-feet crossover has charm and character. Even with the available CVT transmission, it’s pleasant to drive and has the ingredients to make it a desirable all-season kind of vehicle.

“

The pillars on which these cars are built are the fundamental blocks that allow their owners to put their faith in them and have a blast while doing it.

Next came the Forester. At a starting MSRP of $25,995, this five-passenger Subaru has some great qualities. Its high seating position elevates the driver to have a great field of vision and the roomy interior and excellent cargo capacity off 974L (seats up), or 2,115 L (seats down) sure fits a lot of stuff inside. Lastly, and my favourite of the batch, was the all-new 2015 Outback ($27,995.) Maybe it’s because I love wagons, or the fact that there’s

All of these great cars come with 220 mm of ground clearance, meaning you can save your money on a snow shovel! Okay, that’s not entirely true, but that ground clearance allows you to trek deeper off the beaten path if that’s what you’re into. Throughout the day’s activities, whether it was engaging the X-Mode system while stopped in the middle of a snowy incline, or allowing the hill descent control to work its magic descending that same snowy mound, one thing is certain: Subaru builds a

an impressive 1,005 litres of cargo space behind the rear seats (2,075L with them folded), or that you can get it with a 6-speed manual, it’s a very well-balanced vehicle. Not to mention comfortable and quiet too. Both the Forester and Outback have a little something extra, too. The CVT equipped models feature X-Mode, a system that further helps you gain more traction in low traction environments, and comes with hill descent control.

strong product. One might argue that they’re a little behind when it comes to styling and aesthetics. But not everyone needs the prettiest SUV on the market or one that is the most tech-savvy when it comes to infotainment. The pillars on which these cars are built are the fundamental blocks that allow their owners to put their faith in them and have a blast while doing it.

Top five oddest classic car features By Matt Lewis

Anyone who has purchased a car has faced an overwhelming list of features on the window sticker. Over the years, there have been some imaginative features offered right from the dealership. Here are five of the more ‘interesting” examples.

Lightning Rods Shifter – 1984 Oldsmobile Hurst:

The perfect option for any automotive enthusiast who just can’t get enough levers, the Lightning Rods shifter walks a very strange line between a typical automatic and

a full ratchet shifter. As goofy as it may look, Lightning Rods have no problem putting the power to the ground.

Swivel Seats – 1975 Chevrolet Laguna S3:

It’s a wonder that more cars weren’t offered with swivelling seats, seeing as those troublesome stationary seats are always such a bother to get in and out of. While the swivel seat was designed for easy egress, an added benefit is that your vinyl won’t wear out nearly as quickly.

Highway Hi-Fi record player – 1957 Chrysler 300: The Highway Hi-Fi did its best to

Remember the gift you bought your wife last year?

Dual/Gate) – 1969 Oldsmobile Hurst 442:

stop the needle scratching your precious 45s. Not only is there a generous amount of suspension built into the record player, but the pressure placed on the needle was known to prematurely wear records out.

One of the more sexist options to be offered on a car (to date), the Hurst Dual/Gate shifter was branded as the “His and Hers” shifter. The theory behind the ‘his-and-hers’ shifter was women wouldn’t want to be bothered by changing gears while driving! This option allowed the driver to kick the stick over and access all three gears “manually.” Matt Lewis writes for Hagerty Insurance. Hagerty is the world’s leading specialist provider of classic car and boat insurance. Learn more at hagerty.ca and you can email rsass@hagerty.com

Rim Blow Steering Wheel – 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429: In a time before road rage, Ford, AMC, Chrysler, and GM all thought it would be much better to get rid of the pesky horn button and just have drivers squeeze the wheel. One major defect of the Rim Blow was shrinkage, which caused the horn to sound all the time!

‘His-and-Hers’ Shifter (Hurst

Mayor Jensen’s description of the deer cull in Oak Bay “The first contractor will collapse the trap while the second contractor puts their full body weight on top of the deer and collapsed trap then holds the head still while the first contractor dispatches the deer using the bolt gun [This means applying a dead bolt gun to the head of the struggling deer with the intent of delivering maximum damage to the deer’s brain]. Contractors will promptly re-establish the trap from its collapsed state, open the gate and move the deer to a waiting covered truck. Contractors will use a black plastic bag to cover the head of the deer after the bolt gun has been used, to catch any blood while the deer is being taken to the truck. The deer must, under cover and in the back of the truck, away from public view and be bled within 15 minutes of euthanasia, to reduce meat spoilage. Blood must be collected in a container to maintain a clean work site. Once the deer is bled and the trap set up for daytime, the contractor will move on to the next trap location.” (December 2014-Oak Bay’s RFP for a deer cull contractor.)

Is this how you want Oak Bay to be remembered? Call 250-813-0208 if you see a trap!

HIGH DENSITY| Element Beachside Residence will be three storeys high, with commercial space

Fourteen-unit condo coming to Caddy Bay Demand for downsizing, high-density behind planning of new Abstract development in Cadboro Bay Travis Paterson Black Press

There’s no place like home, which is why Abstract Developments has designed its new 14-unit condo in Cadboro Bay, Element Beach Residences, with expansive living areas. “The size and number of units is driven by the location,” said Abstract’s development and acquisitions manager Sam Ganong. “We see a demand from downsizers, and the community plans drive it too, across the street is a threestorey building, this fits in with the community.” There are three layouts available: a one bed, one bath and den; a two bed, two bath; and a two bed, two bath with den. They range in square footage from 737 to 1,009, with seven units on the second floor and seven on the third floor. The ground floor will be commercial space, either for office or retail, which will be subject to zoning. The floor designs are based on creating a home feel rather than a condo with an open kitchen and living area that is flowing and expansive. Because

Element Beachside Residences adds ground level commercial space and 14 condos on Penrhyn Street in Cadboro Bay. condo living areas often feel small with limited storage, Abstract tried to make it more functional by adding storage with custom millwork throughout. It’s a much different project than Abstract’s recently completed City Park townhomes overlooking Rudd Park on Whittier Avenue, just south of Boleskine Road. Only one of those 14 units is still for sale. “City Park townhouses are geared to entry-level buyers and young families, driven by its proximity to Uptown,

which has been successful,” Ganong said. “Here in Caddy Bay, everything is already established.” Keeping with Abstract’s flashy appeal are design schemes by Sandy Nygaard (Nygaard Interior Design) who has worked with Abstract before. Nygaard is leaned on to institute a brash, West Coast feel inside the home, using colour schemes, earth and wind. The kitchens are loaded with slide-in gas ranges by Whirlpool, part of the stainless steel appliance package.

Element condos will be sold in three stages. Phase 1 launched in September and sold out. The remaining nine units will sell in

Youth groups earn credit union grants Kevin Laird

Did you know?

Black Press

Five Greater Victoria youth charities have been awarded $84,800 from Coast Capital Savings. Coast Capital Savings’ Vancouver Island Young Leaders Community Council awarded $490,000 in grants to 37 Vancouver Island youth-focused, not-forprofit organizations. The grants support programs that help more than 13,000 youth in the region, according to a Coast Capital press release. Among this year’s recipients in Victoria are: n University of Victoria’s TeenWork Youth Employment program, $25,800; n Community Living Victoria’s School and High School Project, $15,000; n University of Victoria Student Society’s Suicide Prevention Training, $12,000; n Victoria Brain Injury Society, $12,000; n KidSport Greater Victoria, $20,000. The grants, up to $30,000 each, are

n Coast Capital Savings annually invests seven per cent of pre-tax profits in charitable programs and local initiatives to help strengthen the communities it serves. This amounted to $5.7 million in 2014, for a total of nearly $56 million since 2000. n Coast Capital Savings is Canada’s second largest credit union, owned by its 512,000 members. It has branches in Metro Vancouver, the Fraser Valley and Vancouver Island.

awarded through a unique “for youth, by youth” process led by the Vancouver Island YLCC, one of three regional Coast Capital youth councils. Each YLCC is made up of eight youth volunteer leaders from the community and Coast Capital savings, all 30 years old or younger. Conor Pommerville, chair of the Vancouver Island Council, said each year the funding decisions prove challenging.

“The granting decisions this year were not easy,” Pommerville said. “The council worked long and hard to determine which organizations should receive grants, and we believe that these 2014 recipients truly embody Coast Capital’s community promise to build a richer future for youth.” Pommerville, 31, has been on the council for two years. “The great thing was to be able to grant these organizations money to help them run their programs and to meet the people who run these programs. “It really hits home a lot more when you get to see it all in action.” The local community investment program and the YLCCs were developed with the support and approval of the Coast Capital board of directors. “The Coast Capital board of directors are excited with the work of our community-based YLCCs and the thoughtful funding decisions they are making that support local not-for-profits,” said Coast Capital board member Bill Wellburn.

Prior input opportunities were held on December 11, 2013, and April 23, 2014 where general ideas and recommendations were gathered, and those comments have been used to help craft a draft report of potential regulation changes. Two additional public review sessions are now planned for February 18th and 21st and these sessions will include the opportunities for the public to be informed on the draft report and provide further input. Both session times are open to the public: Session 1: February 18, 2015 6:30 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. Oak Bay Recreation Centre (Sports View Lounge) Session 2: February 21, 2015 1:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. Oak Bay Recreation Centre (Sports View Lounge) Each session will present the Floor Area Review Report with public Q & A and discussions to follow each session. Light refreshments will be provided. Attendees are encouraged (but not required) to RSVP to Krista Mitchell, Building and Planning Department, (250) 598-2042 or kmitchell@oakbay.ca
