Steelhead adds to LNG plans Floating plant off southeast of Vancouver Island would compliment proposed facility in Sarita Bay MARTIN WISSMATH ALBERNI VALLEY TIMES
A new Liquefied Natural Gas project north of Victoria will help the proposed facility south of Port Alberni, says the CEO of Steelhead LNG.. Steelhead LNG announced a new agreement Thursday with the Malahat First Nation for a floating liquefied natural gas facility on the shoreline of the Malahat Nation’s recently acquired Bamberton property south of Miller Bay, about 40 kilometres north of Victoria. The proposed facility would ship up to six million tonnes per year of LNG to markets in Asia with a floating facility moored to the shoreline supported by min-
KUZEMKO
or land-based infrastructure. The 30-year-project would create 200 “high-paying long-term positions once the facility is operational,” according to a press release. “As a BC-based LNG develop-
ment company, we are committed to early engagement with First Nations and getting things right,” stated Nigel Kuzemko, CEO of Steelhead LNG. “We look forward to working with the Malahat as we consider the wide range of cultural, environmental, technical, financial and social matters of importance to the Nation, neighbouring First Nations and communities, and BC residents as a whole.” Steelhead LNG announced last year a $30-billion proposal for a major land-based LNG facility at Sarita Bay, 75 kilometres southwest of Port Alberni, in partnership with the Huu-ay-aht First Nations. That facility would be much larger than the Malahat
project, with an expected capacity to ship 24 million tonnes per year. It would create 400 permanent jobs over 25 years of operation, according to the company. In July 2014 Steelhead applied for a licence from the National Energy Board to ship 30 million tonnes of LNG. Kuzemko said the smaller, floating LNG facility could be built first to support the costs of a pipeline crossing the Georgia Strait, which would continue from the Malahat shoreline across Vancouver Island to service the proposed facility at Sarita Bay. Kuzemko hopes the Malahat project can get started before the end of the decade. “The two projects in effect
share the cost of the pipepline and therefore increase the chance of success,” Kuzemko said. When the two LNG projects are operational, about one quarter of the natural gas product piped across to the Island would be liquefied for shipment from the Malahat facility, and the majority would be transported to Sarita Bay, he explained. Steelhead LNG have kept discussions with the Malahat Nation confidential for the past 13 months, Kuzemko said. The company has been working with the Huu-ay-aht First Nations for about 18 months, he added. See LNG, Page 3

Six years ago Janis Joseph recognized a need in the community for a place where children and youth with behavioural challenges could learn reality-based life skills. After years of hard work and research, Joseph, a 15-year behaviour consultant, is seeing her vision become a reality. In early September, Joseph will open the doors to Fresh Steps Ability House, a comfortable centre aimed at empowering youth to gain skills and confidence in society as they enter adulthood. Joseph also wants to help parents maintain a healthy home life for families. Joseph’s mandate is to use community resources as educational tools. For example, if a child has anxiety about ordering a meal at a restaurant, she will guide him or her through the process. “In the end, I want them to be able to engage with customer service, instead of just in a basement with building blocks pretending it is a drivethrough,” Joseph said. She has also worked with children who excel in gardening and baking and believes their confidence and self-esteem can be raised to the point that they can give back to the community. “There is no reason these kids cannot be trained as a landscaper or a baker to sell their products and services,” Joseph said. “Every child has a gift and it might not be academic. There is a world of opportunities

open to them.” They will have hands-on experience with as much time needed right in the house, Joseph said. Joseph’s concern is that some of these youth are not receiv-
ing the attention and opportunities they need in the school system and hopes to include her programs in their reduced school day. “I noticed with the gradual entry program that behaviour challenges are bigger than the aids can handle,” Joseph said. “Kids are not at school as long and go home without any tools to work on behaviour skills. So, my vision is for this house to be a part of the school day for kids.” Ability House will be open to both girls and boys aged zero to 18 with behavioural challenges
or special needs. Some of those challenges in today’s world include anxiety, nutrition and healthy eating, impulse control, anger and fears. Expectant parents who know they will be having a special needs child will also have the opportunity to learn parenting skills and find support. Saturdays will be open for the “Unplugged Club”, aimed at the screen kids who wake up to electronics. They will learn alternate ways of spending quality free time. See SPECIAL NEEDS, Page 3

AVIATION
No plans to extend Bomber contract Hawaii Mars too slow, too big, too expensive to fit into firefighting operations, says B.C. government “Because of its relatively slow airspeed and large size, the Martin Mars is more difficult to integrate into B.C.’s firefighting operations, including close air support for firefighters on the ground.”
ERIC PLUMMER ALBERNI VALLEY TIMES
W
ith days left for a 30-day contract to use the Mars water bombers on forest fires the province has announced no intentions of extending the agreement. The arrangement between Coulson Flying Tankers and B.C.’s Ministry of Forests expires on Tuesday. Over the last month the Hawaii Mars Bomber was deployed from its Sproat Lake base several times, but more firefighting action past Aug. 25 now seems unlikely. “It has not been decided as to whether there will be a further extension to the contract,” said the province’s chief fire information officer Kevin Skrepnek in an email to the AV Times. “Any decision to extend the contract will be based on the projected level of fire activity and operational need.” In recent weeks there has been no shortage of fire activity requiring the 27,200-litre drop capacity of the Mars bomber. On Aug. 2, the aircraft dropped 108,000 litres of water in one hour on a wildfire by Harrison Lake in B.C.’s interior – a provincial record for fire suppression, said the bomber’s owner Wayne Coulson. On Aug. 4, the massive World War 2-era plane dropped on several fires sparked by lightning around Great Central Lake, and last month another mission was

made to attack a Blaze near Nelson on July 18. The aircraft has fought forest fires on Vancouver Island and throughout North America for decades. It sat idle in 2014 after the province opted for a contract with smaller air tankers provided by Abbotsford-based Conair. The Mars bomber was reconsidered by the province this spring when a severe fire season was forecasted. So far this prediction has proven accurate with over 292,000
hectares of forest burned. Last year, 369,169 hectares were affected — the most B.C. had seen in over a decade. Despite the contract with Coulson, the bomber was left on Sproat Lake while a nearby forest fire quickly grew to 350 hectares on the lake’s shore. Only one air tanker dropped on Dog Mountain the day the fire was discovered on July 4, and over the following week the province’s air suppression resources were focused on larger incidents
elsewhere. After days of the Dog Mountain blaze growing, Minister of Forests Steve Thomson announced the Mars would be deployed July 8. “We felt we had the appropriate resources available, but given the extraordinary fire situation this year that we’re in, we’re looking to every possible tool with our toolbox,” Thomson said in an interview last month. Among the 16 air tankers the province has at it’s disposal, the
Mars bomber appears to not be the preferred choice, according to a comparison made by the Ministry of Forests this summer. “Because of its relatively slow airspeed and large size, the Martin Mars is more difficult to integrate into B.C.’s firefighting operations, including close air support for firefighters on the ground,” stated a July 10 release from the provincial department. The current standby cost for the aircraft is $15,000 a day, plus $6,000 a hour for flight time and costs of approximately $5,000 in fuel for each hour in the air, stated the province.

Steelhead must fulfill 11 conditions for LNG: HFN LNG, from Page 1 Huu-ay-aht First Nations announced their support for the Malahat project hours after it was revealed on Thursday. “We support what our partners are doing and stress that it does not take away from what is happening between Steelhead and our Tribe,” stated the HFN’s chief elected councillor, Robert Dennis, in a press release. “Both projects will continue moving forward, with the Sarita Bay project now in the

feasibility phase.” The Huu-ay-aht attached 11 conditions to the Sarita Bay project when it was approved at their People’s Assembly in
November 2014. The conditions consider the environmental impacts and cultural values of the Huuay-aht, said Dennis. For the project to continue, Steelhead LNG would need to carry out environmental “best management” practices to minimize the facility’s disturbance of the land and wildlife, he said. To preserve “sacred sites” around Sarita Bay an archeological impact assessment may be required, Dennis noted. Martin.Wissmath@avtimes.net
Parental involvement ‘critical’ for special needs care centre: founder
SPECIAL NEEDS, from Page 1
It took Joseph extensive legwork to find the right house, but she recently signed a lease with the building of the former Ladybugs Child Care Centre on Gertrude Street. It is complete with all household amenities including a full kitchen. “I didn’t want it to be clinical,” Joseph said. “I wanted a house where kids could walk through the doors without fears and feel confident learning new skills in their own space. It is also a
place where parents can come to share experiences without having any fingers pointed at them, knowing it is safe and confidential.” Joseph said parent involvement is critical. “It is a family issue, not just the child,” she said. “I want to help families with lifestyle changes.” The front of the house will be managed by Melissa Turner, a former Residential Care Aid, wife and mother of two children. The two struck up a friendship in the playground of their
children’s school and when Joseph knew she could not operate the house on her own and Turner was looking for work, it turned into a perfect match. “I will be doing a bit of everything, helping with life skills, baking, reading and running the office,” Turner said. The partners will host an open house in October for the creativity-based learning centre, but before then, Joseph can be reached at freshsteps.jj@telus. net. Kristi.Dobson@avtimes.net
High levels of bacteria were detected in the water at the Canal Beach pier this summer, leading Island Health to advise against swimming at the site. [ERIC PLUMMER, TIMES]
Health advisory remains for beach ERIC PLUMMER ALBERNI VALLEY TIMES
The water at Canal Beach is still not safe for swimming, based on recent samples analyzed by Island Health. Since the beginning of August Port Alberni’s new beach has been among a handful of public sites on Vancouver Island not deemed suitable for water activity due to high levels of bacteria. The no-swimming advisory was issued after enterococci levels came in above Island Health’s threshold for healthy water from two consecutive samples taken on July 21 and 27. Another sample on Aug. 4 passed, but the most recent testing from Aug. 10 has forced the advisory to remain over the weekend. Island Health normally deems

salt water safe for swimming if less than 35 enterococci particles are found in 100 millilitres of water. Since June 5 some samples from the Canal Beach pier have exceeded this, rising to as high as 600 particles in July 27. The Aug. 10 test revealed an 85 enterococci level. Three other locations at the beach have passed testing this summer. Valerie Wilson of Island Health communications said the bacteria can become elevated from a number of causes, including water foul droppings or hot weather. “You could get a gastrointestinal illness, something like diarrhea, ear infection, throat infection, that kind of thing,” she said.

Dating site reveals online dangers
M
arvin Gaye may have heard it through the grapevine back in the
day. But today, it’s bad vibes from the Dark Web that have left Canadians about to lose their minds over relationships gone sour. The 9.7-gigabyte data dump of confidential Ashley Madison customer information, courtesy of a blue-nosed band of hackers with a hurt on for “cheating dirt bags,” has the owners of email addresses ending in “.ca” squirming over their errant mouse pads. More than a few cheating hearts can expect to be “cryin’ a river,” as Aerosmith might put it, while saying “sorry… for being so untrue.”
Customers of the world’s “leading married dating service for discreet encounters” – the site boasts nearly 39 million worldwide – rue the day they bought into the slogan Life is Short. Have an affair. They never counted on signing on for an “outing” as well. The hackers have now shared customers’ names, email addresses, home addresses, sexual fantasies and worse for all the world to snigger at. So much for putting any faith in a company that traffics in infidelity. Yet this cloud of two-timing gloom has a silver lining, however tarnished. It serves as a cautionary reminder that Canadians
tend to take Internet security for granted, and companies have little incentive to let us know when they’ve been hacked. The Toronto-based cheating site is just the latest victim that suddenly has some explaining to do. But broadly speaking we don’t know how secure corporate Canada is because companies aren’t required to report security breaches. Many don’t, preferring to pull a silken sheet of commercial silence over any unfortunate incidents. Happily, that will change when the new Digital Privacy Act comes into effect and throws open the bedroom windows, as it were. Passed in June, it requires com-
panies to notify customers speedily about breaches that create “a real risk of significant harm,” and tell customers what they can do to mitigate the damages. Significant harm includes identity theft, financial loss, damage to reputation, damage to a person’s credit rating and loss of property. Companies that violate the act face fines up to $100,000. But the act won’t come into force until Ottawa crafts implementing regulations. That won’t happen until federal privacy commissioner Daniel Therrien’s office is consulted, along with the private sector and other stakeholders. With a federal election campaign underway, there’s no real time-
line. A new government will have to prove it is up to the job. When the public reporting regulations do come in, however, they should be demanding, and backed up by sufficiently robust fines to compel compliance. Protecting customers’ data is a big investment in terms of time, human resources and money. Most companies know their reputations are on the line and will do the right thing. But some will need a forceful regulatory prod. Ashley Madison’s rueful clients are the living proof that doing the right thing doesn’t always spring to mind. –THE CANADIAN PRESS (TORONTO STAR)

Use of drones can threaten the public T
he term “Drone” has been used a lot in various media resources recently. By definition, a drone can be much more than what most of us think of, and in this case, the focus is on drones that are Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs) , which are power driven aircraft, other than a model aircraft, designed to fly without a human operator on board. Transport Canada is responsible for establishing, managing, and developing safety and security standards and regulations for civil aviation in Canada, and this includes unmanned civil aviation. The Transport Canada website is helpful to anyone wanting to know more about the law surrounding UAVs. Additionally, Transport Canada’s website notes that it is currently reviewing regulations and exploring changes that “will address the growing popularity and economic importance of UAVs and integrate them safely into Canadian airspace.” While there are now countless videos from unique and amazing perspectives being brought to us by operators of UAVs, there have been concerns raised as some UAV operators have not considered the negative impact of their use of
Sgt. Dave Boyce RCMP Spotlight UAVs in the wrong setting or circumstance. NBC news reported on July 15 that drone action grounded firefighting aircraft around a wild fire in San Bernadino, California, quoting Battallion Chief Marc Peebles, as stating that the drones “definitely contributed to the fire hopping the freeway” and “gave chase to firefighting aircraft.” Unfortunately, this trend was repeated in our own province on Aug. 16 when aircraft fighting the Testalinden Creek fire south of Oliver, B.C., had to be grounded for several hours due to a drone operating in the area. Earlier in August, the same thing happened to crews fighting the Westside Road wildfire near Kelowna. Additionally, on August 3, a drone missed the windshield of a Seair seaplane by just ten feet as it was landing near the Vancouver International Airport and RCMP in Richmond were already investing a report of a drone flying dangerously close
to landing planes at YVR just weeks earlier. The threat primarily exists from mid-air collisions and avoidance that could have catastrophic results for flight crews and those on the ground. Transport Canada emphasizes safety in the use of UAVs and will investigate incidents reported to the department through one of their inspectors. Local police may also verify if other laws were broken, such as those in the Criminal Code. At this time, there does not appear to be any precedent where a UAV operator has been criminally charged. Despite this, there is a range of possible criminal offences that could be investigated and eventually prosecuted if all necessary elements are proven. At one level, the act of wilfully interfering with the lawful use and enjoyment of property, known as Mischief, could be made out. If their lawful use and enjoyment of property is negatively affected because of that action they should call police and let police investigate. That scenario could possibly become more concerning if the drone or UAV continues to show up at someone’s residence, may be noticed at their place of work or other location where
they may be and an investigation may broaden to consider Criminal Harassment under the Criminal Code. In terms of investigations of drones entering airspace near airports and around such things as fire operations – and if it can be proven that an act showed a wanton or reckless disregard for the lives and safety of other persons – criminal negligence on the part of the identified UAV operator may be made out. In all cases, everyone is reminded to let the police or Transport Canada investigate and not to take matters into their own hands. Flying into restricted airspace (which could include an airport, or for example, the airspace above and around forest fires) with a drone or UAV, could net the individual operator a fine of up to $1000.00 from Transport Canada inspectors. If the operations include commission of a criminal offence, the penalties could be even more severe. If you would like more information about UAVs, the Transport Canada web page is recommended. If you wish to make a complaint you can contact Transport Canada at services@tc.gc.ca or contact your local the Port Alberni RCMP Detachment.

“Typically we get four or five players that want to come in early to help with the hockey school and work with the local minor hockey players.”
Players help run hockey school and golf tournament The Alberni Valley Bulldogs have two events occurring this week adding to the excitement that’s building for the 2015–16 season and main camp, which opens on Monday. The Bulldogs currently have 13 returning players and new recruits that asked to come in early to help with the annual Bulldogs Summer Hockey School, which is currently running at the Alberni Valley Multiplex all week until today. “Typically we get four or five players that want to come in early to help with the hockey school and work with the local minor hockey players,” said Bulldogs head coach and general manager Kevin Willison. “The fact that we had such a great response this season speaks to the character of this year’s team as all the players can’t wait for the season to begin.” Once the week-long hockey school draws to an end, all the players will focus their efforts for one more Bulldogs community event before they hit the ice for main camp on Monday. And that one event is the Fourth Annual Bulldogs Season Kickoff Golf Tournament this Sunday, Aug. 23rd with a 1 p.m. shotgun start. For the golfers, it’s a fun, pressure-free Texas scramble format with each group being paired up with at least two Bulldogs players. A full 18 holes of golf and a steak dinner will be served at the Alberni Golf Club (with a reduced rate for season ticket holders and Alberni Golf Club members). Adding to the event are some prizes courtesy of Will Pulford, Van Isle Ford, and Pacific Chevrolet, including closest-to-thepin prizes and door prizes. There is a dinner-only option
Kevin Willison, Alberni Valley Bulldogs head coach and general manager
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Two teams with more in common than one might think meet in their second preseason game when Seattle visits Kansas City tonight. Start with the offensive line: Both teams have no idea who will be starting when the regular season rolls around. The NFC champion Seahawks have tried five options at left guard in camp, the latest move taking right tackle Justin Britt and sliding him over, all while converted defensive lineman Drew Nowak tries to play centre. The Chiefs have had a different front five every week in practice, and are now without left tackle Eric Fisher because of a high-ankle sprain, and right tackle Jeff Allen because of a knee injury.
for the non-golfers that still want to come out, support the team, have dinner and meet the staff and the 2015–16 Bulldogs players. As in past seasons, the Bulldogs coaching staff will be naming the captain of the 2015–16 squad at the dinner following the golf tournament this Sunday. News@avtimes.net

Wiggins highlights Team Canada roster National hoops team sets its 12-man lineup with a talented core as they prepare for Olympic qualiďŹ er THE CANADIAN PRESS
TORONTO — The Canadian men’s basketball team will go with a 13-man roster for the Tuto Marchand Continental Cup exhibition tournament starting Sunday in Puerto Rico. Nine current NBA players were named to the squad Thursday as the team wrapped up its camp with a final workout at Air Canada Centre. NBA rookie of the year Andrew Wiggins highlights the roster, which also includes Minnesota Timberwolves teammate Anthony Bennett. Other players included Melvin Ejim and Andrew Nicholson of the Orlando Magic, Nik Stauskas of the Philadelphia 76ers, Robert Sacre of the Los Angeles Lakers, Dwight Powell of the Dallas Mavericks, Kelly Olynyk of the Boston Celtics and Cory Joseph of the Toronto Raptors. The roster is rounded out by European league players Aaron Doornekamp (Braunschweig,
Germany), Olivier Hanlan (BC Zalgiris, Lithuania), Brady Heslip (Pallacanestro Cantu, Italy) and Phil Scrubb (AEK Athens, Greece). “We’ve had an intense camp and we’re looking forward to transitioning into game play,� said Canadian head coach Jay Triano. “Tuto Marchand will give us an opportunity to play against some of our key competition prior to the Olympic qualifier.� Team Canada will take on Argentina, Brazil, the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico in the five-team exhibition tournament, which runs through Wednesday. The tourney is a warmup event ahead of the Aug. 31-Sept. 12 FIBA Americas tournament in Mexico City. The final 12-man roster for that competition will be released after the exhibition tournament. The top two teams at the FIBA Americas will qualify for the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio.

HOROSCOPE by Jacqueline Bigar ARIES (March 21-April 19) You could be in a place where you feel oddly out of sorts with several people. The real issue is the unknown of how long it will take until you feel comfortable with this group again. Loosen up and relax as much as possible. Tonight: Make time for a one-on-one chat. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You mean well, but someone else might not have the same intentions. Open up your baby blues to see what is happening. Ask important questions, but understand that you might be uncomfortable with the answers. Use care with anyone you meet today. Tonight: Out and about. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You have received a sufficient amount of flak in your life. Quite clearly, you might want to head in a different direction. For some reason, though, you could feel obligated or locked in. A friend will help you get through this maze. Tonight: Make it an early night. CANCER (June 21-July 22) You might be in the mood to have fun, but you probably

won’t want to get into anything too crazy. A boss or higher-up could cast a shadow on that idea. Be realistic and deal with this person accordingly. There is always time for fun later. Tonight: Accept an invitation. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You have a strong inclination to preserve the status quo, especially today. Should you sense a setback in your plans, you could become frustrated and retreat. Many of your friends could be shocked by your immediate reaction. Tonight: By all means, entertain from home. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You could see a problem arise from out of the blue. How you deal with this matter will depend on your desires and objectives. Trust yourself to accept a little bump in a relationship and know how to keep it all together. Tonight: Go to a favorite haunt with a friend. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You have a tendency to overindulge. You could get upset with someone you really care about. You also might be in a situation where you have the ability to make an adjustment but don’t

want to. In any case, reach out for more information. Tonight: Play it easy. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Your ability to get past an immediate issue will pay off. Others might struggle with the situation, but you won’t. In your mind, you have created your own boundaries. Cut loose if you feel the need to. Someone close to you might want your time. Tonight: Let it all hang out. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Be wary of anyone you meet right now, as people might not be who they project themselves to be. Take your time getting to know someone better. You might want to slow down the pace, even if the other party has different ideas. Tonight: Give yourself permission to go out. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Meetings are important, as they could point to the direction you need to follow. You understand people far better than you realize. You have the ability to get them to work well as a group. Use that skill, and everyone inevitably will benefit. Tonight: Take a walk. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might want to reach out to a friend who can be distant. How you deal with this person will depend on your next interaction. You could place him or her in a less significant role in your life without even intending to. Tonight: Meet up with some work friends. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You have a style that draws many people toward you. You might wonder what you need to do in order to gain the type of interaction you want. Do your best to be less vulnerable. Think carefully about a decision before you follow through on it. Tonight: Explore a new area.

Baker, Barbi Dee (McKamey) July 29, 1964 – August 10, 2015
MARIE LOUISE STONE July 2, 1922 – August 13, 2015 Louise passed away peacefully at Fir Park Village after a long and healthy life. Louise was born in Oldham, England to Annie and Edward Jackson. She is predeceased by her husband of 70 years, Douglas E. Stone; parents Annie Louisa and Edward Jackson and a niece Elizabeth Zubko; cousins and other relatives in Wales and England. She is survived by her children: daughter Faye (Peter) Beyer; grandchildren Peter (Nicole) Berger; great grandchildren Rebecca, Tyson, and Joshua Beyer; daughter Judy (Bob) Reider; granddaughter Melissa (Lenny) Von Harrach; great grandchildren Felix, Caspar, Leo Von Harrach; grandsons Eric (Jen) and Andrew Rieder; son Doug (Mirriam) Stone; granddaughter Malaika; granddaughter Kathy (Joe) Kalugin; great grandchildren Joseph Kalugin, great granddaughter Sarah (Michael) Messanger; greatgreat granddaughter Neila Marie Messanger; step great granddaughter Tasha; step great-great grandchildren Jaden and Nathan; nieces Sandra (John) Smith, Roberta Bogle, and Patricia Green. Louise was blessed with a happy, healthy life up until four years ago. As a young child, she travelled with her parents all across Britain as her father was a violinist and conductor. When she was 8 years old her parents immigrated to Canada and Louise stayed with her favorite Aunt and Uncle in England; and for two years she had a wonderful time with her aunts, uncles, grandparents and cousins. When her parents were settled in Vancouver; Louise came to Canada on the ship Alania where she met a lovely family with two young girls. They became friends and were full of mischief. She was ill when she landed in Halifax, but after that it was clear sailing until four years ago. Louise was a seamstress by trade and during the war sewed uniforms, tents, etc. She met Doug at a Halloween party at the Church and they were married Jan 31, 1942. After the war they moved backed to Port Alberni where Doug went to work for his father and uncle at Stone Brothers Towing Ltd. Doug Jr. is still employed at Pacific Towing; Mum was in the Hospital Auxiliary; was a great cook, gardener, seamstress and loved being at their cabin at Sproat Lake. We want to thank her niece Sandra for all her visits. Mom did enjoy them. We would also like to thank the staff at Fir Park Village for all the very caring, compassionate care she received there. There will be no service at Louise’s request. A family gathering will be held at a later date.
Our beautiful Barbi, a true living angel, was taken from us too soon. She passed away peacefully at the age of 51 on August 10, 2015 after a 2 ½ year battle with cancer. She fought the disease with grace and courage, and all the while never lost that big beautiful smile. She was a sweet loving soul, and will be missed by so many.
Dave Stevens August 23, 2013 Our Family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same, but we will be called one by one, and our chain will link again.
Barbi was born in Port Alberni on July 29, 1964 to Wayne and Joyce McKamey. After graduating from Alberni District Secondary School in 1982, she went on to become a hair stylist, dental assistant, and finally an education assistant, her true calling. Barbi made a career of working with children and in doing so changed the lives of so many. She had a way of making everybody feel important.
Love and miss you always!

Ray Kwok
On April 15, 1992, she married her high school sweetheart Darren. Together they created a partnership of love, laughter, and travel that spanned 34 years. Although their time together ended too soon, Barbi and Darren shared more love than many do in several lifetimes.
January 8, 1933 ~ August 21, 2014 Those we love we never lose, For always they will be, Loved, remembered, treasured, Always in our memory. A sadness still comes over us, Tears in silence often ow, Memory keeps you ever near us, Though you died one year ago.
Barbi leaves behind her husband, Darren; her parents, Wayne and Joyce McKamey; sisters, Brenda McKamey (Mark) and Bridgette McKamey; brother, Bryce McKamey (Amanda); Bob Smith; sisters-in-law, Karie McNichol and Jodi Oliver (Bruce); nephews, Brock, Mathew, Cody, and Luca; nieces, Sarah and Brooklyn; numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins; and of course, all of her loving friends.

This will be an outdoor event, so please dress accordingly. In lieu of flowers, we ask that you make a donation in Barbi’s name to the BC Cancer Agency or BC Children’s Hospital. Barbi, I hope we can all learn a little from the life you lived, the love you shared, and the light you shone. We were blessed to be a part of your life.
