Alliance focuses on the premier By JOSH MASSEY NORTHWESTERN LOCAL governments are hoping to negotiate an industrial tax revenue sharing deal with the provincial government and will be taking their cause directly to Premier Christy Clark. They’re hoping for a meeting with her next month when local governments from around the province gather in Vancouver for their annual convention, an occasion which will draw Clark and other senior provincial officials.
The Northwest B.C. Resource Benefits Alliance includes 21 northwestern local governments, who signed a memorandum here Aug. 15 affirming the alliance’s goals. What they want is a share of the expected tax revenues that will flow should major economic developers proceed. They argue that under the current taxation provisions, those projects will increase local government costs without providing funds to offset those costs. Alliance chair Stacey Tyers is also a City of Terrace
councillor and the chair of the Kitimat-Stikine regional district. She said Clark was invited to attend the Terrace signing. “The invitations went out late; they all had about three week notice and everyone is on vacation,” said Tyers. The Aug. 15 memorandum signing was the first time all 21 local governments were able to gather. First announced a year ago, the alliance’s core members were Terrace and the Kitimat-Stikine regional district but it then expanded
and now takes in the area from Haida Gwaii to Vanderhoof. The alliance also hopes to meet and start working towards an agreement with Peter Fassbender, who, as of the end of July, is the new provincial cabinet minister responsible for local governments. Tyers said Fassbender’s predecessor, Coralee Oakes from Quesnel, had been a fairly active participant in discussions. “We don’t have an agreement, but I think she did the best she could,” said Tyers.
“I think Coralee has created a rapport with the communities and relationships with the people in the communities. She’s a northern MLA so she really understands the smaller communities better than a southern MLA.” Fassbender comes to the position with a reputation for having driven a hard bargain during a dispute with the teacher’s union last year when he presided over the education ministry. “We have a road ahead of us,” said Tyers. “I’m trying really hard to
work with them, we really need this for the communities,” she continued. The alliance seeks an agreement similar to one between the province and local governments in northeastern B.C. which is based on oil and gas tax revenues. The province earlier this year turned down an alliance request for just over $1.1 million to help it negotiate a revenue sharing agreement. At the time the province said it would be premature to provide revenues from a future industrial base.

City finances traffic study THE CITY of Terrace is laying out $40,000 for a transportation master plan which will provide a blueprint for the construction of roads and transportation networks. With the prospect of increased industrial development, the study will also look at the predicted effects of “anticipated growth,” according to a city document outlining the study’s intent. The study focus includes “current capacity and traffic loading of arterial and collector roadways; recommendations or confirmation of locations for future vehicle and pedestrian grade separations for crossing the railway,” the city document continues. Those latter two focus areas are in direct reference to the city’s long-held desire for a second vehicle route over the CN tracks which now divide the town, and another wish – that of a pedestrian overpass to better connect the south side with the north side of the city. At the moment the Sande Overpass is the only way for traffic to cross over the CN tracks. There are level crossings at Kenney St. and at Frank St. The study list includes consideration for improvements to both Lanfear and Kalum hills (the road up Kalum hill is called Skeenaview Drive), two of the three routes leading up to the bench area. The road on Lanfear Hill in particular has become a topic of discussion and debate about its ability to handle more traffic based on increased residential construction on the bench. The study will also take into account the city’s parks plan, currently being updated, as well as the city’s desire to increase bicycle routes and the plan for a mix of residential and commercial development on Keith Ave. west of the Sande Overpass.

Bylaw officer signs on THE CITY’S first fulltime bylaw enforcement officer in years says he is beginning his new job with an educational approach. “You might notice a warning ticket on your windshield alerting you to the bylaw infraction, and you can contact me at the office if you have questions,” says Zane Testawich, a seven-year resident of Terrace who started his new position earlier this summer. There are too many bylaws to easily list, but so far the majority of calls he has had relate to traffic and homes. “The top two I have been getting complaints about lately are unsightly or nuisance properties, and street traffic,” he said. He added that the tickets for nuisance or unsightly properties are $100 and tickets for street and traffic infractions are also $100. “Some of my priorities will be to provide public education and promote safety in order to reduce the number of potential bylaw infrac-

For example, with certain kinds of noxious or invasive weeds, they must be removed before they seed and threaten to spread, he said. Testawich will respond to resident complaints and concerns, conduct regular patrols, and work on pubic relations with citizens. He comes to the
position with an undergraduate degree in social work and certificates from the Justice Institute of BC including Enforcement and Investigative Skills and Bylaw I and II. He also worked for the Nisga’a Lisims Government in natural resource enforcement. For recreation Testawich plays hockey and one of his favourite movies is Slap Shot. He
has also been a hockey referee. “I like rules,” he said. The bylaw position was added by this city this winter, but has been talked about for a couple years. The fact that the city has had more money coming in from taxation on new construction and also from selling land meant they could look at adding new positions.

New mine engineering study delays construction start THE COMPANY which wants to build a molybdenum mine at Kitsault on the north coast remains committed to the project, says its president. And although it won’t meet an initial target of raising its final financing and a construction start this year, it is now focused on 2016, Alloycorp’s Gordon Bogden said of its Avanti Kitsault project. “What we’ve done is taken a pause,” explained Bogden. The key factor was a switch this spring in engineering companies from AMEC, which has been working on the project for years, to DRA from South Africa, to prepare the project’s front end engineering design, he said. “There was nothing wrong with AMEC. They were great,” said Bogden in adding the DRA design study will deepen Alloycorp’s knowledge of construction and other costs. The work done to date had been pushing projected costs several hundred million dollars above Alloycorp’s original estimation of $1 billion, he said. “The [ore processing] mill is a major factor. On this project it could be anywhere from one-quarter to one-third of
overall costs and we want to get that number right,” Bogden continued. Getting the number right is also key to providing a fivemember European banking syndicate with the comfort level needed to fully commit financing. To date, two of the syndicate’s members have committed themselves and the others remain interested, said Bogden. “The original syndicate is still together. The [financing] mandate letter is still there,” he said. Bogden said syndicate members want to make a site visit to Kitsault but because of the engineering company switch, the design engineering study, and costing, won’t be known until this fall. And once October comes around, winter weather can settle in at Kitsault, making any such visit tenuous, he said. “No banks, the credit committees, will want to make any decisions so late in the year so we said “let’s do this right” and put this off to the new year,” he continued. “So in effect, what we’ve done is push this forward six
to eight months, that’s all.” Bogden did acknowledge prices for molybdenum, used as a strengthening agent in the production of steel, are low (a company statement referred to prices as “languishing”), but said the new target mine commencement date of 2018 is at a time when they are expected to have recovered. And while the company statement referred to the current investment climate is “tepid,” he said that doesn’t apply to the kind of private financing Alloycorp expects to lock up. But the company is cutting expenditures and its workforce while maintaining a minimum level of activity at the project site. Workforce recruitment has also been halted pending a ramp up next year. “We’ve done all the preconstruction work we can there,” said Bogden of millions spent on improving road access from the Nass Valley to Kitsault, rebuilding a provincial government bridge and putting in place an accommodation camp. The company opened a Terrace office this spring and it will remain open, said Bogden.

Kitsault has been the location of two previous molybdenum mine projects in the past decades with one resulting in the construction of a town and a brief operating life in the early 1980s before markets turned downward. Alloycorp, which was at first called Avanti Mining and has now placed the project under a subsidiary called Avanti Kitsault Mining Ltd., purchased the property in 2008 and began exploration and cost assessment. It received provincial environmental approval from the provincial government in 2013, environmental approval from the federal government in 2014 and it negotiated an economics benefits agreement with the Nisga’a Lisims Government in 2014. The company had committed itself to training and employing Nisga’a residents of the Nass Valley which is connected by a road to the Kitsault location. It’s also maintained an active presence in the Nass Valley. To date it’s spent an estimated $100 million on all facets of the project.

ELECTION 2015

He’s overseeing a vast area By JOSH MASSEY THE MAN who is at the helm of the Skeena-Bulkley Valley riding for the 2015 federal election says Canada is lucky to have a stable democracy. Former Terrace educator and school principal Warren Wilson says that compared with places he and his wife visited on their year-long honeymoon in 1976, we’ve got it good here. After seeing inaccessible polling stations watched over by teenagers bearing submachine guns in Iraq and Afghanistan, he says he returned with a desire to one day engage in the much better electoral system we have here. This plan has materialized as Wilson takes on his role as non-partisan Election Canada’s returning officer in the region, overseeing the election process. The Skeena - Bulkley Valley riding is the fourth largest of the 338 in the country. That number increased from 308 in the last Parliament because of a redistribution in areas where the population has grown. By way of comparison, Wilson says a typical riding in Toronto might be six square kilometres while the Skeena - Bulkley Valley riding is 628,000 square kilometres. The central office he and his team work out of is located beside Shoppers Drug Mart in the old Source store-

TERRACE RESIDENT Warren Wilson is Election Canada’s returning officer for the Skeena - Bulkley Valley riding. front in Terrace. There are four other suboffices in Kitimat, Smithers, Burns Lake and Prince Rupert. The Terrace office will employ 18 people and there are seven employees in each of the other offices.
Those other offices each have an assistant returning officer, the most out of any riding in Canada, Wilson says. At the peak leading up to and including election day Oct. 19 there will be 650 workers in the area includ-
ing poll clerks and deputy returning officers, with hiring ongoing for some of those positions this week. There are 60,000 eligible voters in the riding, which encompasses the whole north coast and inland as far as Fort St. James (not in-
cluding Vanderhoof). It’s the job of Wilson and the electoral team to make sure that voter information cards get sent out so the voters list can be updated. Wilson says that people can even come into one of
the five central offices any time before the Oct. 19 election to vote. Information is available online or by calling or stopping at the offices. With changes brought in by the Conservative government’s Fair Elections Act, there are new rules about ID and also for vouching for a person who may not be on the voters list. No longer can one voter confirm the identity of another who doesn’t have ID. Every voter needs one valid government-issued ID with a photo. If they don’t have that, they need two pieces of ID which don’t necessarily need photos but which must be on a list of approved IDs. If you are visiting from somewhere other than where your address is, you can vote in that riding. But it should be no later than six days before the election day so your ballot can be mailed to Elections Canada and then recorded in your home riding’s tally. To vote early in case of absence, there are advanced polling days. In addition to administering the voters list and managing the voting on election day, one of Wilson’s other jobs is to officially approve of the candidates selected by their respective political parties. Perspective candidates have to file by September 30, 19 days prior to the October 19 election.
Offices open and candidates chosen THE FOCUS of the Skeena - Bulkley Valley federal election race is sharpening as parties choose candidates or open campaign offices throughout the riding. In Terrace, an upbeat Nathan Cullen, the NDP incumbent, opened his campaign office Aug. 19, one of three the party opened last week. That makes him the second candidate to have a storefront presence – the first was Conservative Tyler Nesbitt at the end of July. Cullen, first elected as the NDP MP for this riding in 2004 and again in 2006, 2008 and 2011, said all indications point to B.C. being the place where the ultimate national winner will be decided on Oct. 19. “B.C. is going to pick the next government in this country. This time our votes are going to count,” he said. Cullen also referred to what he called the changing political nature of the northwest, saying there are now progressive mayors and municipal councillors in local governments. “It’s a people-trying-to-live-together story,” he added. Cullen said it is also time for reconciliation between First Nations and the rest of the country. “The only way the country moves forward is if we acknowledge the past,” he said. As much as Cullen’s speech was about
party principles, it was also about raising money for the campaign with the candidate noting the spending limit during the election in this riding is now nearly $250,000. He said the lengthy campaign period this time favours a well-financed party such as the Conservatives. “The only reason is money,” said Cullen of the early election call which came the August long weekend. The candidate closed off his speech by squeezing oranges into juice in return for donations made by those at the opening. The juice-making referenced the NDP’s 2011 election campaign, dubbed the “Orange Crush,” which resulted in the party becoming the Official Opposition. Cullen was introduced by Kitselas First Nation councillor Glenn Bennett who thanked Cullen for his efforts as it worked toward its respective land claims treaty agreements-in-principle. “It was very frustrating, I can tell you that for a fact,” said Bennett in referring to the two years it took both the provincial and federal governments to ratify the agreements after members voted their approval in 2013. The Kitselas First Nation agreement, along with one for the Kitsumkalum First Nation, was signed by federal and provincial officials earlier this month.
Bennett then presented Cullen with a gift – the Sheaffer pen used by Kitselas First Nations officials to sign its agreement in principle. In Smithers on Aug. 19, a Village of Telkwa councillor was chosen to run for the Liberal party. Brad Layton, who works in the forestry industry, has also just started his second term as a Telkwa village councillor. He was the only candidate to seek the Liberal nomination. “I can see our quality of life – being the middle class – declining each year [and] I’m worried about my daughter’s future,” Layton said of his decision to run. “[Liberal party leader] Mr. Trudeau has expressed a lot of views that I follow myself and beliefs that we can have both a strong environment and economic development – we need this development in northern B.C.” A long-time northwest resident and Liberal supporter, Layton came to the Bulkley Valley in 1987 and got involved in local and provincial politics starting in the early 2000s. He has worked for Pro-Tech Forest Resources as a forest technician for 29 years and was first elected to Telkwa village council in 2011. Layton is just getting started with his bid
for member of Parliament and he said that he does not plan to start campaigning full-time until September, following a typical 37-day campaign model. Layton’s nomination makes the Bulkley Valley a hot spot for regional political activity. Both Cullen and Christian Heritage Party of Canada leader Rod Taylor also live there. But you won’t find Taylor running in this riding. Taylor was elected as the leader of the Christian Heritage Party last fall and is running in the nation’s capital in the Ottawa West-Nepean riding. “I thought it important as leader to bring the [Christian Heritage Party] message to the Capital Region,” said Taylor. Northwestern party members met in Smithers Aug. 24 with one person, Don Spratt, expressing an interest in the nomination. Taylor has run as the party candidate in the 2004, 2006, 2008 and 2011 federal elections here. In 2011 he received close to 3 per cent of the vote. Taylor’s new riding was represented by John Baird who, until his resignation earlier this year, served in several senior cabinet posts in the Conservative government. Candidates will square-off at an all-candidates meeting Oct. 6 at REM Lee Theatre.

EDITORIAL
50 plus 1 THE federal New Democratic Party has one big problem as it continues its campaign to form the next national government on Oct. 19. And that’s in Quebec where the party did so well in the 2011 federal election it was able to form the Official Opposition and where it expects to do just as well or even better this time. As is the case with all parties, the federal NDP needs support right across the country. So to appeal to as many Quebec voters as possible, including so-called “soft federalists”, national NDP leader – and native Quebecer – Tom Mulcair has adopted the policy that should there be another separation referendum, a successful ‘yes’ result would only need a 50 per cent plus 1 ‘yes’ vote. Critics state this is a very low threshold, too low, on which the future of a country can be decided. The Supreme Court of Canada has also weighed in, speaking of a clear majority although it did not define what the percentage should be. Some political observers believe there is nothing to worry about as Quebec would now seem to be solidly in the federalist camp. But that would be wrong. Political sentiment can shift and no one knows when that might occur. While Mr. Mulcair may feel content with his Quebec vote-getting policy, Canadians elsewhere should wonder why a man who wants to be Prime Minister would set such a low bar permitting one province to leave.

ome folks are addicted to NCIS, others Gray’s Anatomy, I get hooked on true crime cases. The Mike Duffy trial has claimed much of my free time – and some time not so free-- as the trial painstakingly unravels through its third court date. In the first weeks I flung myself out of bed early each morning to read the minuteby-minute blog as the court heard from ordinary witnesses about ordinary problems that I could understand: Duffy visiting Vancouver Island supposedly to appear at a legendary local country fair and discuss Senate business with local elected representatives; trips to a dog show in Ontario to check out Kerry Blue terriers with the intent of buying a pup. My favourite witness was the caretaker of Duffy’s Prince Edward Island cottage who testified Duffy and his wife could never have lived there through any winter because the structure was insufficiently insulated for winter temperatures. Because the caretaker is fairly deaf, and was testifying from his home, he handed the phone to his wife to tell

CLAUDETTE SANDECKI him what Duffy’s lawyer had asked. When Duffy’s lawyer realized while the caretaker had taken the oath to tell the truth, his wife hadn’t, a long silence paralyzed the Ottawa courtroom. Silence alone revealed Duffy’s lawyer was consternated, no doubt wondering if this witness’ testimony was valid. I chuckled; I understood the caretaker’s simple honesty, rather like a country resident from one of Stuart McLean’s “Vinyl Cafe” stories chatting at the tailgate of a pickup. In the earliest days of the trial though the questions may have been long, often a
short answer sufficed. Standard advice to any witness is, “Keep your answers short. Answer only what you’re asked. Volunteer nothing.” Then the trial introduced Nigel Wright, Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s former chief of staff who admitted he wrote a personal $92,000 cheque to pay Duffy’s disputed Senate expenses. What had been a one-sided back-and-forth the blogging reporter could summarize in a line or two, followed by a pithy answer, blossomed into a lengthy question from Bayne, Duffy’s lawyer, and generated an equally expansive reply from Wright. The blogging reporter was hard pressed to even summarize in a way a reader could interpret, abbreviating names to B for Bayne, W for Wright, SH for Harper. As the one reading the blog, I was lost. I couldn’t get the drift of the questions; answers lacked full meaning. I gave up on the blog and settled instead for noon news reports, afternoon analysis discussions by reporters many of whom attended the trial, and in the evening CBC’s The National and At Issue panel. I also flip back

and forth from one channel to another, read newspapers and Maclean’s, and have strings of Google alerts on my incoming emails. If that is insufficient to occupy my mind as I walk my dogs, mow my grass, or wash dishes, I speculate about conversations in Harper’s household, at Duffy’s dinner table, and in the prime minister’s office. Does Laureen Harper ever say in exasperation, “Stephen, it’s time you answer reporters’ questions with something more substantive than ‘I don’t accept the premise of that question.’ You’re frustrating even me.’” Does Heather Duffy gaze across the table at her Duff and sigh, “If only you had paid for your own meals.” Are Harper’s ‘boys in short pants’ still as amused as they were two years ago after Duffy confessed on PEI regional media that his application for reimbursement of $92,000 of Senate expenses had been an unintentional error? Duffy’s apology had been written for him by Harper’s staffers, and approved by Nigel Wright. It’s coming back to haunt them now.

The Mail Bag Embrace our artisans
Dear Sir: Farmers markets are a great social atmosphere event. People can go to see and purchase fresh grown and homemade items that are crafted by very talented people who enjoy the rewarding exchange by selling their wares. The Skeena Valley Farmers Market allows new vendors to enter the market by getting to the market location at approximately 6 a.m. to wait in the queue to get a good number to get a good spot on the main drag of the market. But this is not always the case. There is a favouritism and it’s truly unfair, disrespectful and disgraceful. Our town is seeing a lot of younger talented people coming to our area. We need to embrace them and not discourage them from joining such a vital part of our community. J. Scott, Terrace, B.C.
Sande Overpass plan all wrong
Dear Sir: The Sande Overpass plan is all wrong. My old friend, now deceased, had the answer. No traffic lights. Keith goes straight through in an underpass. The southbound Sande Overpass traffic goes over the top and drops down onto the outside lane going east and curls around to go west. There is a natural grade there at both ends and no traffic lights the way it should have been built the first time. Extra land is still vacant if needed . It will be a mess if they use the plan in the newspaper. Edward Giesbrecht, Thornhill, B.C.

THERE’S MORE crime going on than that visibly occupying Canada’s police forces, says a letter writer.
Not all crimes are decreasing Dear Sir: Each year, in preparation for my new Northwest Community College criminology students in the fall I review the latest crime data from Stats Canada. The July, 2015, Juristat Report indicates that the crime rate in Canada (like the U.S.) continues to decrease. This is a trend that began in the early
1990s. I always ask students if they think crime is increasing, decreasing, or staying the same. Most respond that crime is increasing and seem surprised when told crime has been declining for years. I then ask: Where do you get your information about crime? This is a rhetorical question of course. The major-
ity of students (like the majority of the general population) get their information about crime from the mainstream corporate media (and more than ever, the mainstream corporate Internet), who sensationalize crime, focusing on the atypical (e.g. murder; robbery; “stranger danger”), encouraging us to look down, at the “usual suspects”, and
not “up”, at those occupying positions of power – corporate leaders, politicians, and, increasingly it seems, private bankers and those who operate in the world of finance. Why would they? The mainstream media is owned by the very interests that would be most threatened by such coverage.

Columnist lets the cat out of the bag
nce in a while in my writing I use an expression or words in a seemingly strange context and my mind does this weird tangential jump and wonders, “Why do we say it?” Well I recently got a book by that title put out by Castle Books which answered many of those wonderings. I thought I’d share some of them with you starting with the very first one in the book, A1. We of course use that to indicate something that is as good as it gets and companies often use A1 in their name to bolster their image. Apparently it has its roots in maritime insurance. Back in the day when a group of English maritime insurance companies formed an association now known as Lloyds of London, they instituted a rating system which graded the condition of both ships and their cargoes. The condition of an individual ship was indicated by a letter
with A being the best. With the cargo the grade was indicated by a number with, of course, 1 being the best. Therefore a designation of A1 meant both the ship and the cargo were perfect. Now living where we do we well know what a bear is – and what it does in the woods. But what does that animal have to do with the stock market? The word ‘bear’ is used to describe traders who sell stocks short, gambling the price of those stocks will have gone down by the time they have to make good on their purchase. Make the right call, and the trader makes money. Make the wrong call, and the reverse comes true. And so the old folk saying applies, as in “he sold the skin before he got the bear”. Moving on to the Cs, why do we say that someone who divulges a secret has let the cat out of the bag? It’s because in the days of yore
GUEST COMMENT
MALCOLM BAXTER it was the custom for farmers to bring a suckling pig to market in a bag. Sometimes, however, a less than honest farmer would substitute the pig with a cat. If the buyer was foolish enough to purchase this “pig in a poke” without opening the bag, he was cheated out of his money. If however he was smart enough to open it, he quite liter-
ally let the cat out of the bag. So where does the dogwood tree get its name from? It refers to its berries which are considered worthless - dog is used generally in plant nomenclature to denote inferior quality. Perhaps we should have chosen a different provincial flower. One of the more fascinating ones is the answer to the question, “Who invented the word electricity?” It was a Dr. William Gilbert, physician to Queen Elizabeth I, and he used the word to describe the static charge produced by rubbing a piece of amber with a cloth. The basis for choosing that name was the Greek word for amber, elektron. Quite why he did that rubbing is not explained. A delightfully cynical offering is why we call the period immediately following a wedding a honeymoon. “Honey” refers to the sweetness of marriage delights, “moon” to the rapidity with which they
wane. Which is also why we say new governments go through a honeymoon period. Too often this newspaper carries stories about the destructive work done by vandals. But why are the miscreants called that? The Vandals were a Teutonic tribe which in 455 AD, under the leadership of Genseric, captured Rome and mutilated the public monuments of the city with complete disregard for their worth or beauty. Finally, I have never understood why some people shorten Christmas to Xmas - it just never made any sense to me. Thanks to this book it now does: the Greek letter chi, written as X, is the first in the Greek word for Christ. You live and learn.

Poor continue to suffer while others have wealth Dear Sir: Recently I was diagnosed with a cancer not treatable by modern medicine. A Haida friend of mine suggested that I visit a medicine man and woman to get some natural medicine, not that I believe that these medications will cure my cancer, but they may make the rest of my time a little easier. I travelled into Gitx-
san territory. I found in a very modest house, the medicine people I was looking for. They listened to me and gave me several plant medicines, in fact all they had, explaining that they would not be able to harvest more until September. When I wanted to pay for these items, they said this, “We do not charge old people or
sick people.” On my way back to Terrace I reflected back on the times when I witnessed old or poor people at the pharmacy center only take half of their prescription or none at all because they did not have enough money. I thought about the billions of dollars made by drug companies, while the picture of the two people in a small
house in the village stayed with me even now. I thought about how we allow hundreds of thousands of children go to bed hungry in this land of plenty while billions are made by drug manufactures and billions are used to buy airplanes and drones so that we can bomb some people that likely have never heard of Canada. I am not suggesting
From Page A7
Crime stats are lacking In Canada, we systematically collect and disseminate (mostly street) crime data in Canada in reports, like Juristat. However, we have no systematic accounting of corporate, financial, or political crime. Post 911, we hear a lot of talk about terrorists (a real threat, albeit distorted for political
gain); but less about the terrorism encouraged and/or supported by our own governments. Numerous harms (including deaths) are not even defined as crimes. Just a few examples. In Canada: hundreds of preventable, workplace deaths (more are killed in the workplace than are murdered ev-
ery year); and billions of dollars re-distributed to the financial elite via tax loopholes and offshore tax havens, resulting in cutbacks to social services for the most vulnerable in our society – children, single mothers, and the elderly. In the U.S., all the aforementioned and: a stolen presidential election; systemic voter

that we all work for no pay, although being a socialist I know that it is possible. What I am saying is this – it is shameful that we allow anyone to suffer while others have enormous wealth. Meanwhile the federal election has been called early, costing an additional $100 million for all concerned.

Passenger gets apology A LOCAL man who missed a July 27 flight to Vancouver and then ongoing flights to a family wedding back east because the all-female security clearing crew on duty that morning said they couldn’t do a physical pat down has received an apology. The screeners were wrong when they told Rob Hart he could only receive a pat down from a male screener and not a female one, said Mathieu Larocque from the Canadian Air Transport Security Authority (CATSA). Provided a passenger consents, a screener of a different gender can do a pat down, he said. “We made a mistake.
That passenger should have been screened,” Larocque added. And there are other measures instead of a physical pat down, ones on which Larocque wouldn’t elaborate, citing procedural matters. By missing his morning flight to Vancouver because female screeners wouldn’t pat him down, Hart had to wait until a male screener came on shift, resulting in an afternoon flight to Vancouver, a lengthy wait in that city and then a red-eye flight that night across the country. The demand for a pat down came after Hart, who had part of his right hip replaced last year, triggered the
metal detector in the security clearing area at the airport. Larocque said CATSA’s policy of permitting pat downs by screeners of the opposite gender when ones of the same gender of the passenger aren’t on duty has been in place for several years. “This should have happened and it did not,” he said. And it’s very rare to have only screeners of one sex on duty at an airport and on the occasion it does happen, it’s at smaller facilities, Larocque added. Larger airports with scores of screeners are assured of a gender mix, he said.

Larocque said the correct policy on screening has now been explained to screeners here and has been reinforced at airports across the country. Hart has estimated he’s spent about $100 on meals and incidentals because of his altered travel. It’s a figure CATSA would consider should Hart wish compensation, said Larocque. “We do have a claims process in place and we will consider his claim absolutely,” he said. Hart said he was unsuccessful in asking the screeners on duty that morning if they were any alternative measures they could take.

Support for family as 4-yr-old faces chemo
CONTRIBUTED PHOTO
ANNABELLE DEMEDEIROS (right) and her best friend Isabella Gibson play cards in the hospital room after Annabelle’s first round of chemo.
AN ONLINE campaign passed the $45,000 mark late last week, aimed at helping a four-year-old Terrace girl and her family deal with a cancer diagnosis and ongoing treatment. “I had no idea this would happen,” said Britta Nordean, a long time friend of Brian and Nicole Demedeiros, whose daughter Annabelle was diagnosed with Stage 4 Neuroblastoma. “The community has been amazing.” The diagnosis came Aug. 17 and Nordean set up a GoFundMe page right away. Within two days, donations had passed more than $30,000. The family was first flown to BC Children’s Hospital in Vancouver Aug. 12 after Annabelle became unwell. Then tests were done. Neuroblastoma is a cancer related to tumours and Stage 4 is the spread of those tumours to lymph nodes and organs. Brian and Nicole have left
their jobs and expect to be in Vancouver for at least a year while Annabelle undergoes treatment, said Nordean. “Right now their focussing on Annabelle.” That was one reason why Nordean set up the GoFundMe account – to reduce by as much as possible the financial stress on the family while they concentrate on Annabelle’s treatment. Brian and Nicole are staying for now at BC Children’s Hospital but arrangements will soon be made to find accommodations elsewhere, said Nordean, adding that living costs in a large city can be expensive. “I know they are still looking,” said Nordean late last week. On the other end, Nordean said she has been busy answering phone calls from people offering support. Donations other than those through GoFundMe have also been made, she said. More friends of the Demedeiros family are
organizing a dance in October to raise more money. Donations, as of late last week, have come in from companies and employees of places such as MacCarthy Motors, United Rentals and Your Decor. A trust fund has also been set up through the Terrace and District Community Services Society. “The Puckered Pig [food truck] collected $300 through a donation jar in just one day,” said Nordean. Another family friend, Leanne Ballinger, has taken the lead in organizing an Aug. 30 barbecue and garage sale at the George Little House from 10 a. m. to 2 p.m. Donations for the sale are welcome. Call 250-6357871 to have them picked up. Nordean’s husband Tyler Gibson and their daughter, Isabella, were in Vancouver late last week to visit their friends. It was Annabelle’s fifth birthday on Sunday and the visit was an early birthday surprise.
Terrace CO the first to cycle Tour de North By JACKIE LIEUWEN A TERRACE Conservation Officer is the first in B.C. to join the Cops for Cancer bicycling Tour de North. CO Ryan Gordon is from Ontario and has been a conservation officer in B.C. for five years. He and his wife Hanna and Golden Retriever Kona have lived in Terrace three and a half years. At 31 years, Gordon is an avid outdoorsman and cyclist who has done competitive mountain bike races for 15 years. Now he bikes for fun, and also enjoys snowboarding, fishing, hunting, hiking and camping. Gordon says he joined Tour de North as an opportunity to give back to the community. This is the first year the Canadian Cancer Society invited Conservation Services to join Tour de North, said Erin Reynolds, Community Giving Coordinator for Cops for Cancer. “We are diversifying the team to enhance the camaraderie experience for more of the emergency services groups in the north,” she said. “Through this experience we also increase the outreach, awareness, and fundraising to help kids with cancer and their families.” Tour de North is an annual campaign where a variety of emergency services bike across different sections of northern B.C.
to raise money for pediatric cancer research and support programs. This year, the team includes Gordon and 17 other cyclists from across northern B.C., including RCMP and corrections officers, paramedics, and community members. Cycling 70 to 195 kilometres a day, they will take a week to travel from Dawson Creek to Williams Lake. They start the trip off September 15, stopping at various communities for barbecues and overnight stays. The Tour de North goal this year is to raise $350,000. Of the money raised, 80 per cent goes to paediatric cancer research, and 20 per cent to Camp Goodtimes, a week-long camp in Maple Ridge for kids battling cancer and their families. “I believe in that cause,” said Gordon. “It’s nice to give these kids an opportunity to go outdoors and go fishing and swimming and experience what nature has to offer.” Gordon has raised $3,000 so far and his goal is $7,000. He is selling raffle tickets with prizes including Hawkair flights, a guided angler trip and accommodations from the Pioneer Lodge, and a T.V. from Canadian Tire. There will also be a fund raising barbecue at Canadian Tire September 12.

I
haven’t gone to the lake much this summer and my impatience for heat and cloudless skies is consuming me. Lakelse Lake Picnic Site has always been a big part of my summer. It’s true that it’s beautiful and worthy of visiting in any season, any weather, but I long for the heat that makes going to the lake seem the only sensible thing to do. I moved to Terrace in 1979. Driving into town that first time, I was horrified. Had we moved back to Kamloops? The lawns had the same parched, burnt to beige color. Every strip of dirt was hard baked clay. My legs stuck to the ivory vinyl seats of the station wagon and my hair was wet on my neck and glued by sweat to my forehead. It was HOT. My brother and I unpacked our rooms and tried to explore, but it was too warm. For days we lived in our sprinkler and wading pool. Then water restrictions ruled; no sprinkler all day. We could fill the pool once daily, but a whole day of three kids playing in one small pool quickly creates a grass and dead bug infested mess. It lost its appeal. One day, our mother, driven to desperation by the heat and our constant whining, announced we were going to the lake. A lake? Finally something that sounded interesting. We packed up chips, green grapes, and sand toys and off we went. Our legs still stuck to the vinyl seats but now it didn’t seem as complaint worthy. Plus, though they stung if you lifted them too quickly, they made farting noises if you lifted them slowly. Endlessly amusing. “We’ll never get there,” we moaned eventually. Then suddenly we were at the top of a hill, and what could we see shimmering blue between the trees and mountains in the distance? Could it be? “Look guys, there’s the lake,” my
JUST A THOUGHT
EV BISHOP
At the lake mom confirmed. “HOORAY,” we yelled. (It would become our tradition to repeat those exact words, with feverish glee, every time we spotted the lake in the future.) Walking the paved path to the graveled picnic area and coming upon the incredible, huge fairy story trees and the glimmering expanse of water that looked golden in the afternoon sun made me, for the first time, think that maybe, just maybe, this living in Terrace idea could be okay. We visited the lake almost every day for the rest of the summer. We’d work all morning (my mom could bribe us to do almost anything with promise of a lake trip), and by afternoon it would be so hot that even she wouldn’t feel like working. Thus started a habit I’ve kept for over thirty years: hit the lake as soon and as often as possible.
Now when I sit on the rough bark of a natural tree bench that I’ve visited for years, squishing sand through my toes, my mind and my body remember my childhood. In the water I am forever eight. My feet delight in the soft-as-silk rippled sand under the water. I still alligator walk and do dolphin dives and continuous back rolls; I can’t help myself. I still know the disgusting but hilarious feeling of a handful of lake bottom on my back or head. A weed grabbing my ankle still makes me shriek, and the underwater whine of boat engines still creeps me out. I daydream about mermaids. Staring up at the sky, I realize that visiting this spot is the most consistent thing in my life. The water has seen every bathing suit I’ve owned. Every person I’ve tried to be or thought I was has walked the beach. I was a child here and a dream-filled teen. This site has known my friends, boyfriends, and husband. I’ve been pregnant on its sands and nursed my newborns in its huge trees’ shade. My children played here—and now I come to its shores and splash in the waves with my adult son and my daughter and her husband. The drive is shorter to me now that I’m an adult, my car has cloth seats that I don’t stick to, and often I’m alone. But when I get to that certain place on the hill, I still announce, “There’s the lake!” and my whole body feels it: HOORAY. Yeah, this living in Terrace idea is a pretty good one after all. This column originally ran in summer 2001, but in light of the beautiful weather we’ve enjoyed this year I thought it was a lovely one to share once more, edited slightly to adjust for the passage of even more years. Enjoy these last long days of summer, everyone—and get thee to the lake! ~ Ev

■■ Coffee klatch CITY HALL was the scene for a morning coffee gathering of past and present civic notables on Aug. 13. From left to right: current mayor Carol Leclerc, former mayor Gordon Rowland, Helene McRae, city freeman Bill McRae, newly-named city freeman Yvonne Moen, former mayor Dave Maroney, and former mayor Helmut Giesbrecht. Rowland now lives elsewhere and the session was prompted by his return to the city for a visit. He reflected on his time in office during the late 1970s and several memorable projects such as choosing the design for the current aquatic centre.
Youth nabbed inside home WE ARE NOW OPEN! TERRACE RCMP say “A couple woke up one of the break-ins. a youth caught stealing in a house in the early morning of Aug. 18 had already been released from custody on numerous conditions arising from similar incidents. Some of those incidents stemmed from a concentrated series of break-ins which began Aug. 14, and some concerned previous breakins, said RCMP Constable Angela Rabut. There have been five break-ins since Aug. 14 and at the fifth the youth was apprehended, she said.
to find an intruder in their bedroom [at 4 a.m. Aug. 18]. The intruder attempted to flee but the husband was able to catch and subdue the intruder after a struggle,” said Rabut, adding that officers responded swiftly. “Thankfully, no one was hurt,” she said. Rabut cited federal youth identity legislation in not revealing the gender of the youth. While she said the detachment was satisfied an arrest had been made, the youth was not connected to at least
That has caused the detachment to warn residents to lock their windows and doors at night. Too often, said Rabut, entry is easily gained through unlocked windows and doors. Items sought by theives are “anything that is small and easy to carry away,” said Rabut. “Electronics are a huge thing. Jewelry is a huge thing. Cash is a huge thing. Booze.” The break-ins took place in both Terrace and Thornhill.

CLEAN UP underway at 4727 Park Ave. where fire destroyed a building there Aug. 16 that was being used for storage. It was one of two fires started within an hour of each other that night.
Arson likely caused fires LOCAL OFFICIALS believe two near-simultaneous blazes were deliberately set on the evening of Aug. 16, which destroyed two abandoned buildings known to be used by homeless people. “On the one of them [an abandoned bunkhouse and storage facility] I can say for sure it was arson, because there was no power, there were no services, there was no anything,” said deputy Terrace fire chief Dave Jephson last week. “So nobody was supposed to be in there; it was supposed to be locked up. Based on those two things, that’s enough right there to say somebody set that one,” he said That building, located at 3111 Atwood, and close to the CN tracks, used to be owned by the rail company but is now owned by the Best Western Terrace Inn which is located beside the now leveled site. The other building was located at 4727 Park Avenue and was used for storage by owner Lloyd Wittkowski. He hired equipment last week to remove the rubble which included lineoleum flooring and other material from a business he used to run. Neither the RCMP nor the fire department believe there was anyone in either building. “We did not find any sign of people or evidence of people but it is still an active investigation,” said Jephson. “During the clean-up the RCMP were there monitoring on and off, same as the fire department. None of that showed signs of people there.” And as of late last week, Terrace RCMP Constable Angela Rabut said the investigations have concluded and no causes for the fires were determined. Site clean-up at both locations is to be finished today with costs for each
undertaken by their respective owners. Jephson said that any possible motivation to start the fires deliberately can’t be determined. “Nothing, there is no financial gain, it would be transients or trespassers that either by accident started it, or somebody maliciously and purposely started it. Either way, that’s arson,” he said. Firefighters responded first at approximately 10 p.m. to the fire at Park Ave. and again barely an hour later to the former CN building blaze. In both cases, safety considerations kept firefighters from entering the buildings to see if anyone was inside. “Both buildings were derelict, both buildings were a hazard to us; at no point in time were our crews going to enter those buildings,” said Jephson. The city has received nine complaints about the Park Ave. residence since 2009, according to city official Alisa Thompson, but none in recent years about the old CN building. That building had already been half-destroyed by a fire which took hold there in the early afternoon of June 20. Ksan Society housing director Elaine McGillivary said it would not be unusual for homeless people to sleep in abandoned buildings. Some keep away from conventional shelters because of alcohol or drugs or for social or psychological reasons, she said. As well, the Ksan shelter on Hall St. typically turns away three or four people each night because they are full, said McGillivary. The Park Ave. location had been owned by two church congregations decades back and, at one time, the building housed a funeral home.

Environmental Assessment of the Proposed Aurora LNG Project
Open House and Invitation to Comment Aurora LNG (Proponent) is proposing to construct and operate the Aurora LNG Project (proposed Project), a liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility and marine terminal for the export of LNG. The proposed Project would be located on the southeast corner of Digby Island near Prince Rupert, BC. The proposed Project would export up to 24 million tonnes per annum of LNG. The proposed Project is subject to review under British Columbia’s Environmental Assessment Act and is also undergoing a substituted environmental assessment under the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act. The Proponent must obtain an environmental assessment certificate before any work can be undertaken on the proposed Project. However, prior to submission of an application (Application) for a certificate by the Proponent, the Environmental Assessment Office of British Columbia (EAO) must first approve the Application Information Requirements. The Application Information Requirements will specify the studies to be conducted and the detailed information to be provided by the Proponent in its Application. The EAO has now received draft Application Information Requirements from the Proponent and invites comments on this draft. To provide information about the Application Information Requirements, EAO invites the public to attend an Open House. The Open House is scheduled as follows: at: North Coast Meeting & Convention Centre 240 – 1st Avenue West, Prince Rupert on: Wednesday, September 23, 2015 from: 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. There are 30 days for the submission of comments by the public in relation to the draft Application Information Requirements. The comment period will begin on September 1, 2015 and end on October 1, 2015. All comments received during this comment period in relation to the Application Information Requirements will be considered.
The intention of seeking public comments is to ensure that all potential effects – environmental, economic, social, heritage and health – that might result from the proposed Project are identified for consideration as part of the assessment process. At this stage of the process, the primary intent is to receive feedback about the studies or information required for a comprehensive environmental assessment. After taking public comments into account, EAO will finalize the Application Information Requirements and issue them to the Proponent. EAO accepts public comments through the following ways: ONLINE FORM

Copies of the draft Application Information Requirements are also available for viewing at these locations: Prince Rupert Public Library 101 – 6th Avenue West, Prince Rupert Aurora LNG Office 344 2nd Avenue West, Prince Rupert If you are unable to participate at this time, there will be an additional comment period during the Application Review stage when you will also be able to provide comments to EAO on the proposed Project.
NOTE: All submissions received by EAO during the comment period in relation to the proposed Project are considered public and will be posted to the EAO website.

KEEP KIDS
SAFE
TIPS FOR • • • • • •
DRIVERS
TIPS FOR • • • •
Watch for pedestrians and slow down when approaching a crosswalk. Always yield to pedestrians. Drivers must stop for school buses when lights flashing. If you see another car stopped at a crosswalk, there’s probably a pedestrian crossing. Drop kids off in a safe spot, away from intersections and traffic. Remember that this is an exciting time for children, and they may have forgotten their road safety rules; therefore, drivers must pay extra attention.
WALKERS
Obey all signs and traffic signals. Wear bright-colored clothing. Look left, right, and left again before crossing. Make eye contact with drivers before crossing, so you know that they see you.

Basketball camp develops Terrace players By JACKIE LIEUWEN
JACKIE LIEUWEN PHOTO
UNBC TIMBERWOLF Marcus Mackay grew up in Terrace, and came back last week to help teach a kids basketball camp at Caledonia Secondary School. L-R are participants Kayla, Nolan, Reece, and Mackenzie.
A TERRACE-RAISED UNBC Timberwolf is passing down his basketball skills to Terrace kids. Shooting guard Marcus Mackay says he grew up in Terrace and attended the timberwolves basketball camps every year. “I’ve been in these camps since I was little… Coming full circle and coaching them is really special to me,” he said. Mackay and Sergey Shchepotkin, former professional basketball player and UNBC Women’s Head Coach, ran the annual basketball camp in Terrace early last week. The three-day camp drew 55 kids, who came to play ball and develop their skills. “I come here every year and learn lots of new stuff,” said Mackenzie, a grade 8 participant. “It’s really fun. I like playing games and learning new drills.” Grade 9 participant Nolan says he likes the drills and has developed his shooting and passing skills through the camp. Timberwolves run the camp in Terrace because it is an important town in the north and “there are a lot of kids here with basketball traditions,” Sergey said. The camps run annually throughout northern B.C. to strengthen basketball programs and athletes in the north. Sergey says doing the camp every year, they plan get more and more kids into basketball. As for how camp went this year, Sergey said it was perfect. “Kids are enjoying it, parents are happy. We are happy that parents and kids are happy,” he said.
Adult rec hockey filling up quickly By JACKIE LIEUWEN THE TERRACE Adult Hockey League is running online registration this year, and teams are filling up fast. With eight rec teams and five oldtimers (35+), League President Steve Smyth says the rosters fill up fast, especially with a new crop of minor hockey graduates every year. “This year already we’ve got quite a few players signed up that weren’t on teams last year,” Smyth said. “Our challenge is going to be to try and find as many places for them to play as possible.” Teams start out with the same rosters as last year, and newcomers are incorporated into vacant spots from people who were injured, moved or are taking a year off from the league. Open to men and women, Smyth says players who cannot fit on teams are put on a waiting list, and can sometimes join a team part-way through the year if someone is injured or moves away. The number of teams, eight
for the rec league and five for the oldtimers, is restricted by available ice time. “Every year we have requests from people to bring in another team…sadly, we can’t
“Our challenge is going to be to try find as many places for them to play as possible.” accommodate them,” said Smyth. Balanced so that the win is always up for grabs, teams will hit the ice mid-September. Smyth says the rec league features a high level of play, with many former Terrace Rep and River Kings. The oldtimers division has no slapshots and plays a less competitive game. Early bird registration for the teams is open until September 5 and after the price goes up. Players interested can register online at terracehockeyleague. teamsnapsites.com

Annual pool closure for maintenance, cleaning and recruiting more lifeguards By JACKIE LIEUWEN CITY AQUATIC centre employees will be taking advantage of the annual pool maintenance closure beginning Aug. 31 to interview prospective lifeguards. The goal will be to bring staffing levels back up for normal operations, says lifeguard instructor Debbie van’t Kruis. With some of the current lifeguard complement heading to post-secondary schools, the pool is preparing for a shortage. “We’ll have enough to maintain operations, but barely,” said van’t Kruis. “We will hope that nobody gets sick.” Ideally, the aquatic centre wants 20 lifeguards on staff, but they can get by with 14 or 15. “In the fall, we will have ten total,” said van’t Kruis. Other northern communities such as Smithers and Kitimat face the same kind of challenge, she added. “Right now it seems
I
to be an epidemic [in the north],” she said. A lifeguard development program this summer drew ten participants, all considering furthering training. “We won’t have anybody ready to be hired yet, but we did inspire them to consider further training, which is what we wanted to do,” said van’t Kruis. Several people are now traveling to other communities to further their training. The centre’s own development program will resume this fall, either before or after school hours to accommodate more people. It’s also set to run a front crawl clinic to help potential lifeguards learn the fastest stroke and accelerate their training. Both programs start up September 28, when the pool re-opens after the maintenance closure. Aquatic centre manager Mike Carlyle says that during the closure pipes will
n the jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps tonight.
“Dr. Palmer enjoys outdoor activities,” proclaimed his now defunct clinic website. “In the wilderness photographing wildlife is where you will find Dr. Palmer when he is not in the office,” it stated. This was a lie, as most of the world now knows, thanks to the greatest broadcaster of news (and then most powerful shaming device ever invented), the World Wide Web. A more truthful characterization would have been to say “Dr. Palmer is obsessed with slaughtering large mammals. When he is not in the office, he is most probably in the wilderness on a mission to satisfy his bloodlust by shooting the biggest wild creature a highly paid guide can get him close to, so that he can take its hide to be stuffed and put in his trophy room,” Of course this would hardly have been good for business, given the undeniable fact that the vast majority of people on this continent find trophy hunting abhorrent and morally reprehensible. It is quite likely that most of Dr. Palmer’s patients would rather not have a portion of the money they had paid him for dental work go toward such a cruel enterprise. It seems that Palmer, the mighty hunter, spent a boat full of money over the years to bag, among other beasts, a white rhino, an African elephant, a black bear (that he shot illegally), a leopard and

the pools and cleaning everything. “We really work at making things sparkle and shine,” she said.
(COSEWIC) has not yet declared the grizzly an endangered species, despite the fact that it clearly is. This could be because they are thinking regionally rather than globally or because they are using the specious estimations of grizzly bear populations gathered by government staff. The late Dionys deLeeuw demonstrated that the methodology used by the province to estimate bear populations was highly suspect and that grizzly numbers were probably far lower than commonly thought. The range of the great bears once extended from the Arctic to Mexico. Now the Ungava population is extinct and the remaining members of Ursus arctos are a species of special concern. The Mexican grizzly are long gone, the California grizzly is extinct, and only remnant populations of grizzly remain in a few national parks in the contiguous United States. The largest numbers of grizzly are found here, but they are nowhere near their historic abundance and are increasingly stressed as a result of encroachment, habitat loss, and, I suspect, the effects of climate change. Given these factors, hunting these magnificent apex predators for their heads, hides, and claws is criminal. Disney’s Lion King did much to make the African lion an icon and had much to do with the level of outrage kindled by Cecil’s death at the hands of a dentist. It’s a shame they didn’t make a movie about the great beleaguered bears called the Grizzly King.

Rezoning clears way for townhouse plan MORE TOWNHOUSES could soon be built on the bench now that city council rezoned a five-acre parcel at the top of Lanfear Hill from residential to multifamily. The rezoning on the old Kerby property clears the way for Vancouver developers to seek permits to build up to 69 townhouses. The Aug. 10 rezoning hearing was rescheduled from one held June 22 at which neighbours of the property expressed worries about the size of the development and of the prospect of problems with more traffic going up and down Lanfear. The trio of Vancouver residents who bought the property did not see the need to attend the first hearing but after concerns were raised, two decided to travel up this time. “Our proposal, with the zoning we are applying for is completely in line with the city’s [official community plan], so we thought there was no need [to attend the first meeting] but we were mistaken,” said one of them, architect Kenneth Kim. Kim said he wants to build a well-planned townhouse complex at the site, and that the figure of 70 units is a maximum, and not necessarily what will actually get built on the rolling country property which now has only a single home on it. About 10 residents gathered at the Aug. 10 hearing, speaking of serious traffic issues at the Lanfear intersection at the top and at the bottom where there are speeding issues. They worried that a major townhouse complex would make the situation even worse and had a petition to that effect signed by 75 other residents in the area. Responding to these concerns, Kim suggested some solutions, and was backed by city public works director Rob Schibli who said the only impediment to solutions would be budgetary concerns. “Incidents can happen, regardless of our proposal,” said Kim of the current problems with traffic on the hill. One big issue is the stability of the hill itself, with residents and former Terrace develop-
er Russ Shauer on hand saying that previous geotechnical studies showed the ground on the hill was more mud than stone. “Were you aware, that residents are aware that the hill has always
been deemed unstable?” asked nearby resident Amanda Checkley who attended the meeting with her husband Jim. “We really weren’t,” said Kim. Council was advised by city staff that the po-
tential stress on Lanfear Hill would be dealt with in the coming geotechnical studies which will be part of the city’s traffic master plan underway this year. A further traffic study would need to be completed by the
developer at the development permit stage. Kim said the design would be done slowly over the next year and a half, with actual building not starting before 2017. Council was unani-
mous in supporting the rezoning. Councillor Stacey Tyers said that to a certain extent increased traffic is just a natural part of adding more population. “‘We’re changing...
and waiting for a couple minutes at a stop sign might be something people need to get used to,” she said of the problem at the top of the hill. “We need to densify” said Bujtas.
