A steady, healthy run of returning sockeye have received a warm homecoming this season. The extra excitement and celebration surrounding the run comes one year after First Nations refrained from fishing for their main food source last year due to the unknown impacts of the tailings dam failure at Mount Polley Mine on Aug. 4, 2014, which released millions of cubic metres of mine waste water into the Fraser River. “The Mount Polley breach gave us a quick glimpse of what life would be like for us without the salmon,” said Paul Grinder, fisheries manager for the Tsilhqot’in National Government. “And it was a scary thought.” This year there were the usual concerns about the health of the salmon runs due to the hot summer elevating river temperatures, however, the fish seemed to find a way around that by coming later into the season than usual. “They took their time coming up.” Grinder said of the Chilko run. “In my opinion, our fish are evolving, adapting to the warmer climate.”
Tsilhqot’in National Government fisheries manager Paul Grinder uses a traditional dip netting technique along the Chilcotin River recently to catch sockeye for his family. 1

SD27 asks for stiffer driving penalties Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer
Monica Lamb-Yorski photo
SD27 wants tougher penalties for drivers failing to stop for school buses.
Close calls and near misses involving school buses are being reported daily in School District 27, prompting the board of education to call for stiffer driving penalties. “On certain routes in our school district, it is at least a weekly and
almost daily occurrence that drivers are driving through a school bus’s flashing red lights,” said Superintendent Mark Thiessen. There have been a few near misses in the past number of years where students have almost been hit as they get on or off the bus. While the district is
doing everything it can to educate the public about this issue, another way to get the attention of drivers is to make the penalties stiffer, Thiessen said, noting the district hopes to get the attention of the public before a serious incident actually happens. “School buses carry the most precious and
vulnerable cargo — our children — addressing this issue is imperative,” board of education chair Tanya Guenther stated in a letter addressed to the Minister of Justice. Presently the fine for failing to stop for a school bus is $167 plus three demerit points. The board is asking
for an increase of the fine to $368 with six demerit points. Guenther’s letter has gone to politicians in the region, encouraging them to add their voice to the request for stiffer penalties. At its regular meeting Tuesday, city council endorsed the board’s letter unanimously.
Research examines lesser-known Taseko River salmon run it spawns at the highest elevation of all salmon in the province and spawns in the Chilko River just before entering Chilko Lake, whereas all other salmon travel into lakes and then up creeks and rivers to spawn. “It’s a very unique system — it’s very pristine and remote and doesn’t need any kind of human interference to improve it.” The fish begin their journey through the Chilcotin when they enter the glacier-fed waters of the Chilcotin River in mid-August, travelling through traditional fishing areas like Farwell Canyon and Siwash
Continued From Page A1 Grinder said he noticed the fish this year shifted into deeper, cooler waters while the river level dropped, making it better for the fish but also more of a challenge for traditional dip netters. “Using the dip net technique is quite selective and can also be quite difficult,” he said. But it’s well worth the effort. Grinder said the Chilko salmon are a special fish; proven to be genetically stronger with a slightly different build than other sockeye. The run is also unique in that
Bridge. Grinder said the glacier waters seem to revive the fish for the last leg of their long journey, after travelling the warm, more polluted waters of the Fraser River. The stock seemed very healthy and strong this year, he said, as did the Tsilhqot’in, Carrier and Shuswap First Nations arriving at the river banks to greet them. “The energy around the river was good — everybody was happy to meet on the river again to fish and rekindle old friendships. There seemed to be a lot more people visiting the fishing sites, spectating and just enjoying the run.
Last year that was missing,” Grinder said. This year the TNG has partnered with the Upper Fraser Fisheries Conservation Alliance (UFFCA) to conduct important research on the lesser known Taseko River salmon run. Grinder said the joint project will help them gain a better understanding of what fish and how many are going into the important system. Department of Fisheries and Oceans and TNG staff are also currently working on a stock assessment on the Chilko River to track the health and size of the run.

AN APPLE A DAY... September is Arthritis Month Awareness in Canada. An estimated 4.6 million Canadians over the age of 15 report having the disease and by 2036, that number will increase to 7.5 million. It is not a disease that affects only the elderly. About 56% of arthritis sufferers are under 65. A new arthritis diagnosis is made every sixty seconds in Canada. Fore more information, go to arthritis.ca Breastfeeding mothers should check with their doctor or pharmacist when taking new medications, over-thecounter or herbal products. Some products will appear in the breast milk and could be harmful to the baby. Before you take it, talk about it. Another area of research into the use of the chemicals in marijuana is in the treatment of the common behavioural symptoms of Alzheimer’s patients. These include anxiety, depression, sleep problems, agitation and aggression. Early double-blind studies didn’t show much improvement of these symptoms perhaps due to conservative dosing but future testing will use higher doses. It’s good to live in Canada. A report released recently in the U.S. said that a half million Americans had more than $50,000 in prescription drug costs and 139,000 had costs of more than $100,000. Much of these costs were related to cancer and Hepatitis C treatments. Take charge of your own health and your family’s health. Let our pharmacists be part of your health care team.

With a vote of fourto-three during its regular meeting last Tuesday, city council denied a request made by the Choice for Life Society to proclaim Celebrate Life Week from Sept. 27 to Oct. 4. The city has endorsed the proclamation since 2007, but last year prochoice advocate Carrie Julius spearheaded a challenge and protested outside city hall with half a dozen other women, saying the proclamation violated women’s rights. Happy with council’s decision for this year, Julius said: “Our munic-
ipal leaders were elected to make decisions like these by the voters in their community, and are trusted to consult, consider, and evaluate the information which is presented to them, by any group, before giving the City of Williams Lake’s endorsement.” During the meeting Tuesday, Mayor Walt Cobb said by proclaiming Choice for Life Week, the city is not violating human rights. “Under proclamations it says they must be issued in a manner that does not discriminate on the basis of race, ancestry, place of origin, marital status, family status, physical or mental disability, sex
or sexual orientation,” Cobb said of the human rights code. “This particular proclamation is basically celebrating life so there was no reason under the human rights that we should turn it down.” In her letter to council requesting the proclamation, Choice for Life Society secretary Cecilia Schaubroeck said this year’s events will include an evening of singing with the seniors at Deni House, an evening for the public to view an educational video, and a life chain. “We believe it is important that the citizens of Williams Lake hear the message that ‘All Human Life is Pre-
cious,” she stated in her letter. In opposing the proclamation, Coun. Jason Ryll said despite the definition of city policy, it sends a message to the general public that the city takes a position on the topic. “This is something that government does not need to be involved in,” Ryll said. Coun. Craig Smith said the link in the letter goes directly to a church site. ”It is not celebrate life, it’s pro-life, there are no ifs ands or buts about it,” Smith added. Coun. Laurie Walters said it was timely for council to look at the policy.
Alexis Creek RCMP issue warning to Raven Lake campers Alexis Creek RCMP are warning Raven Lake campers to lock up their valuables following a rash of summertime thefts at the popular fishing lake. Police say unknown
persons attended the Raven Lake campsite and stole a generator, chainsaw and three jerry cans of fuel from the back of a camper’s pickup truck. Another camper later reported his chainsaw
was also stolen from his truck. The incident was one of many thefts that occurred over the summer months at the Raven Lake campsite, say police.
“The RCMP would like the campers to be aware of this issue and to ensure all valuables are locked and/or stored safely if camping at the Raven Lake campground,” report the

“I don’t want to say no to this and then I cannot support other proclamations that come forward,” she said. Chief Executive Officer Darrell Garceau said as the policy presently exists, council is not at liberty to be selective, and could be potentially opening itself up to a legal challenge by denying the proclamation, but said if council wants to change the policy then staff will research that for a future meeting. By denying the request, council is effectively sending a message that council is shutting down proclamations, Coun. Ivan Bonnell said.

Team Nash on starting line for Kidney Walk LeRae Haynes
Special to Tribune/Advisor One of the participants revving up for the B.C. Kidney Walk in Williams Lake is eight-year-old Nash Overton. Backed by Team Nash, made up of family and friends from Heartland Toyota, Nash will take part in the walk on Sunday, Sept. 27 to help raise money to fight the disease that has been part of his life from age two. “Our journey with kidney disease started when Nash was diagnosed with Nephrotic Syndrome at two years old — we have been on an emotional roller coaster ride since then, to say the least,” said his mom, Fallon Overton. “Nephrotic Syndrome is a condition where your kidneys for some reason start filtering out large amounts of protein. Without enough protein (albumin) in your blood, your body can’t regulate fluids and you start to swell. We were told there is no cause, no cure and no proven treatment options —
LeRae Haynes photo
A BBQ held recently at Heartland Toyota featured ‘Team Nash’ rallying to raise funds to support eight-year-old Nash Overton in his battle with kidney disease. Pictured here are his great-grandparents Annette and Doug Belsher, his mom Fallon Overton, his sisters Reese and Halle Overton and Nash himself. we were devastated.” She explained that the first plan of attack for Nash’s disease was a high dose steroid treatment (Prednisone) for three months, adding that Nash would relapse very quickly. Nash was hospitalized three times during that first year: something that was very difficult for the family to watch. “We were on a huge learning curve and we researched everything we could: we found that it was a real trial and error approach to
treating this disease,” his mother continued. “There is no reason why some kids responded to treatments while others did not. There was no clear answer and that was very frustrating for our family.” After that first year, Nash underwent a kidney biopsy and was diagnosed with steroiddependant, frequently-relapsing, minimal change Nephrotic Syndrome. Relieved to learn that there was no scarring on Nash’s little kidneys, his parents
were given hope that he may one day grow out of this disease. Changes in medications, ups and downs, remissions and relapses: it’s definitely been a roller coaster, Fallon said. Doctors are still trying to find something that works for him. “Kidney disease doesn’t just happen to people who don’t look after themselves. For Nash, there is no reason,” Fallon said. “He gets it if he gets tired or run down or catches a cold, those
are triggers. He knows he has to check his protein levels. We just started a diary-free, wheat-free diet trying to figure out what works for him. He’s been really good with it. “When he feels good and the disease is on standby for a bit, he plays hockey, goes motor biking, water skiing, tubing, winter skiing — he loves sports.” Team Nash did the Kidney Walk with Nash two years ago. In addition to rallying to walk with him again on Sunday, Sept. 27, they’ve been supportive in helping raise money. The team raised $2,200 on the first walk, held a barbecue at Heartland Toyota and has an ongoing bottle drive at Amanda Enterprises. To date Team Nash has raised $4,560.35. The B.C. Kidney Walk for kidney transplantation and organ donation is an opportunity for patients on dialysis, organ transplant recipients, their families, living donors, the medical community and the public to
come together to raise awareness about the importance of kidney health and organ donation. The community is invited to bring family and friends and make a tangible difference in the lives of the one in 10 Canadians living with kidney disease. “I think that for people living with a disease, it’s nice to be out there doing the walk, getting support and knowing that they’re not alone. You meet people living with the disease, people who have donated kidneys and people who have received one,” Fallon said. “With Nash it sometimes feels that we’re helpless — but this is something we can do. Come join the walk and help raise awareness, raise some money and sign up as a donor.” Registration for the Kidney Walk in Boitanio Park is at 9 a.m. Sunday Sept. 27 and the 2.5 kilometre walk begins at 10 a.m. For more information about the B.C. Kidney Walk in Williams Lake, visit www. kidney.ca/kidneywalks.

Terry Fox’s lasting legacy Three and a half decades ago, a young Canadian man whose name nobody outside his circle of family, friends and medical professionals had ever heard, dipped his prosthetic leg in the Atlantic Ocean and set out on the journey of a lifetime. Thirty-five years later, you’d be hard pressed to find a person in Canada who is unfamiliar with Terry Fox — or throughout much of the world, for that matter. In the decades since his Marathon of Hope was cut short by the return of the cancer that claimed his leg — and eventually his life — Terry’s journey has been taken up by countless participants across the globe, with millions of dollars raised for cancer research in the process. This Sunday, Sept. 20, Terry’s legacy will be honoured once again as walkers, runners, bicyclists, bladers and many
others will once again hit roads and trails across Canada and in many other nations around the world in his memory. We’d encourage anyone who is on the fence to get out and participate this year, even if it’s just for an easy one-kilometre stroll. In Williams Lake, registration begins at 9 a.m. at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex with either a one-, five- or 10-kilometre walk, run or ride starting at 10 a.m. Organizer Sheila Wyse is encouraging teams — whether corporate or just as a group of family or friends — to participate in the event. In doing so, you’ll be honouring not only Terry, but the tireless efforts of volunteers who are helping to ensure that his legacy lives on in Williams Lake.

Election candidate slipups common on social media In this day and age of instant communication one would think if you are running for public office or are a top political backroom person it may be a good idea to check back on your previous life’s comments on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. One of Muclair’s top campaign people took some heat over a tweet that was sent to CBC and other top media outlets suggesting the Pope should stop calling the misogynist, homophobic, child molesting Catholic Church, a moral authority, it is not. The NDP leader said he would not let him go and accepted his apology ... the incident happened almost two years ago, however, it does reflect some of
the

the top person’s thoughts. I cannot for the life of me think of how any person would want to put these kinds of thoughts on social media, knowing they may have an impact on you somewhere down the road.
The NDP dude further damaged himself when he told Pope Benedict in a post that Britain’s human rights on gay equality violated natural law, and concluded with insulting profanity. I have seen political types deleted or their responsibilities downsized for doing less than that. The NDP are not alone in having candidates and/or top people utilizing social media and getting into some trouble for their comments. The Conservatives and the Liberals have also had their people who are running get themselves into trouble. At last count all three parties have had candidates drop out of the race.
I have spent some time in the backrooms of political campaigns since the Alex Fraser days as mayor of Quesnel and also worked on provincial and federal campaigns in different positions. I cannot recall as many candidates dropping out in federal election campaigns as in the first two elections. Perhaps, because eight years ago, social media was just getting into another gear and more can be found out about these individuals if you do some checking and that’s what the media does to, perhaps, scoop another story. Even when the campaign is in high gear, and in the heat of the moment, political candidates
make some goofy remark that causes them to not get elected — just ask Walt Cobb and his comment at a political forum that basically lost the election for him because it was grabbed by the press all over the province. Pay attention to what is happening during the election and with the very best information you have, go and cast your ballot. I hope the young people will get out and vote this time. At least in greater numbers than the last Federal Election. Enjoy the last weekend of summer! Ken Wilson is a freelance columnist with the Tribune/Weekend Advisor.

Protest stunts distract from real efforts “I am tired of managing poverty.” The words of Lake Babine Nation Chief Wilf Adam were quoted by both Aboriginal Relations Minister John Rustad and Premier Christy Clark at their second annual meeting with aboriginal leaders around the province. In her closing remarks, Clark repeated her aim to continue economic development and resource revenue sharing that have dominated the government’s approach in recent years. “Let’s eliminate poverty in First Nations communities,” she said, adding “the only way we can fight poverty is to grow the economy.” Not surprisingly, Clark’s chosen example was the potential of liquefied natural gas development for the Haisla Nation near Kitimat. That and similar proposals require new gas pipelines. And as is customary in B.C., what people most often hear about are threats and wild claims regarding protests such as the Unist’ot’en camp near Smithers, set up to block a gas pipeline. There was a round of this in late August, after Grand Chief Stewart Phillip of the militant Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs claimed hundreds of RCMP officers were about to descend on the camp. This echoed previous false claims made by self-styled anarchists such as Victoria’s Zoe Blunt, who has been organizing outside support for the camp for the last couple of years. Media jumped at the prospect

with Tom Fletcher
of another Gustafson Lake-style confrontation. This prompted an unusual statement from Cpl. Janelle Shoihet of the North District RCMP. “To clarify, the B.C. RCMP has no intention of ‘taking down the camp’ set up by the Unist’ot’en,” she said, emphasizing that police are not taking sides or acting as security for pipeline exploration crews being harassed by protesters, who have token support from a couple of dissident members of a Wet’suwet’en clan. Four elected chiefs of the Wet’suwet’en issued their own statement, to correct media coverage that represents the Unist’ot’en as speaking for their communities. “Our Nations support responsible resource development as a way to bring First Nations out of poverty and bring opportunities for our young people,” said Burns Lake Band Chief Dan George. Wet’suwet’en First Nation Chief Karen Ogen said job and benefit agreements for the Coastal GasLink pipeline were entered into after careful consideration, and she objected to protests from
outsiders, some from outside the country. “Sustainability means standing on our own two feet, providing our young people with good paying jobs, and reducing the 40 to 60 per cent unemployment we now experience,” Ogen said. Haisla Nation Chief Councillor Ellis Ross has no time for crude oil projects, but he has been working towards gas-related development as long as anyone. Ross spoke out in support of the elected Wet’suwet’en chiefs in their efforts to resolve the dispute with Unist’ot’en members.
“Opposition is the easiest job in the world,” he said. “What is difficult is finding an answer when a First Nations mother has concerns about her child’s future. “Politicians are quick to shout out sound bites and get into camera shots, but where are the cameras when another First Nations member takes their own life or when they pass away from highway/alcohol related deaths?” Ross noted that recent court decisions have put B.C. aboriginal leaders in the best position they have ever had, with governments and development proj-
ect proponents coming to them “with inclusion in mind” after decades of resource development that has passed them by. You wouldn’t know it most days, but First Nations along both the Coastal GasLink and Pacific Trails gas pipelines have agreed to them. More aboriginal leaders are getting tired of managing poverty, and misguided protesters. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

Lots happening Sunday during Paws for a Cause Liz Dighton
Special to The Tribune/Advisor The world famous, amazing silent auction is sure to delight participants in the Paws for a Cause event this Sunday, Sept. 20. There will be local produce, hand-crafted merchandise, tools, services and so much more — a huge selection of items donated by local businesses and supporters! With more than 60 items; yes there is something for everyone at the annual event sponsored by Scotiabank and BC SPCA local branch. A few select local vendors
will be there providing handcrafted items, all in support of the animals. There will be dog, cat and pony treats made with ingredients you can pronounce, plus so much more. Chat with our Cariboo district cruelty investigation officer. She is a wealth of knowledge and enjoys sharing the ins and outs of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act (PAC Act of BC). These are the laws of B.C. that we must follow to help neglected, abused or forgotten animals. Stop by the staff hosted con-
cession, enjoy a hot coffee and a bite of breakfast to fuel up or relax after your walk with a cool drink and a light lunch. Ask us about our favourite animal from the branch. Or even better, bring your adopted pet up so we can visit and reminisce about their time with us. Visit with the Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett. Enjoy the music of Oren Barter and local musicians Padova. And of course we will have BC SPCA merchandise, a selection of hoodies, pants, toques and so much more, plus information on local programs to help people and their pets. And for the first time our
walk route has changed! Introducing Chase Your Tail in which all dogs chase their tail at least once in their lives, many continue to amuse their owners with this cute game well into their adulthood. We, the Williams Lake BC SPCA decided everyone needs some extra fun in their lives and have included this game into the Paws for a Cause fundraiser. Botanio Park is a beautiful green space in the centre of Williams Lake. It has a lovely cement walking path that is one kilometre in length. This path meanders through
the park in a large circle. Participants of the walk will be encouraged to walk the loop of the park. Registration is at 9 a.m. Sunday, Sept. 20 with the walk starting at 10 a.m. Each one-kilometre loop will earn you an entry into a draw for some BC SPCA merchandise. Complete one lap then pause to check out the vendors and silent auction items. Head out for another walk around the park but don’t forget to collect another entry for the draw!

Entertainment and education at Horsefly River Salmon Festival Arts and crafts, salmon education demonstrations and interactive activites will all be part of the annual Horsefly River Salmon Festival coming up next week. Set on the banks of the Horsefly River in Horsefly, this family, friendly free event takes place Saturday, Sept. 26 and Sunday, Sept. 27 between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. each day. “The Horsefly River Roundtable hopes for positive salmon returns this year, though it’s not known how many will make it here,” says
event co-ordinator Erin Hitchcock. “However, many sockeye have already been showing up in the Horsefly spawning channels, so their numbers look promising.” Exhibits and activities will be set up along the banks of the Horsefly River across the bridge in downtown Horsefly on T’exelc (Williams Lake Indian Band) and Xat’sull (Soda Creek/Deep Creek) traditional territory. The festival will include crafts for kids
with Maureen Chappell’s Creative Hands. People of all ages can join in painting a wooden salmon for the Stream of Dreams Project, or make a Japanese Gyotaku fish print. This printing process was originall used by Japanese fishermen to count and record their catch. The Department of Fisheries and Oceans will be setting up a salmon education booth with demonstrations including explanations about the life cycle of salmon, and
salmon anatomy with fish dissection demonstrations. Representatives of Scout Island Nature Centre will be there with interactive activities and games for children about river invertebrates. There will also be information displays by the Northern Shuswap Tribal Council (NSTQ); the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast Invasive Plant Committee; and by Mount Polley Mine. On Saturday only interpretive walks will be offered on the Horsefly
River Riparian Trail. Food vendors will include Cody Williams with his freshly made bannock and Soul Food Deck One by Nadine will have their food trailer set up next to the community hall offering snacks and meals during the day and Saturday evening during the Arts on the Fly music event in the community hall. Meals will also be available down the road at the Anvil Pub. Saturday night the festival includes a musical concert in the Horsefly Community

CHP candidate just 23 years old Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer A 23-year-old Quesnel man is running for the Christian Heritage Party in the upcoming federal election. “I think people are unhappy about the options we have, especially with the Conservative government we’ve had the last while,” Adam De Kroon told the Tribune. “I thought it was a good time to put my name in and give
Christian Heritage Party candidate Adam De Kroon people an option to support someone who supports small government, lower taxes
and less government intervention.” Last May the CHP determined De Kroon would be the Cariboo Prince George riding candidate and officially announced it early August. Prior to running he has been involved with the party for several years. “I was secretary of the provincial wing in 2013 and on the federal side, vice president as of this year.” The biggest issue this time around is Bill
C-51 and the Conservative government’s intrusion into people’s privacy in the last several years, De Kroon said. If elected De Kroon will provide a strong voice for the citizens of the riding making sure their needs are heard in parliament. “In our policy manual we say that an MP’s first duty should be to represent the needs of constituents, not a political party’s wishes.” The Christian Heri-
tage Party has candidates throughout Canada, but only three in B.C., which De Kroon said is an unusually low number. Growing up in Quesnel has seen him spending time throughout the Cariboo where he said he feels well connected. He is in his third year toward a bachelor of arts and computer science degree and works part-time at West Fraser sawmill in Quesnel on a maintenance shift.
Green Party candidate hopes for better First Nations relationships Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer As he hits the campaign trail Cariboo Prince George Green Party candidate Richard Jaques is hearing many concerns about the country being in another recession. “I am also hearing about the federal government’s failure to seek consent with First Nations,” Jaques said. “The government needs to meet with First Nations and figure out if they want to share the resources within their traditional territories.” First Nations want input, they want jobs and they want to participate in the process, he added. Formerly a Liberal supporter, Jaques said he was disappointed when leader Justin Trudeau voted in favour of Bill C-51. “I couldn’t in good conscience support someone who is in favour of tearing our charter to shreds,” Jaques said of his decision to run for the Green Party. Last month Jaques attended the Mount Polley Mine meeting held at Xat’sull. While he came away from the meeting thinking the company is working hard and put on a good presentation,
Green Party candidate Richard Jaques Jaques said more needs to be done to ensure any water released by
the mine is not contaminated. The Green Party is proposing reducing small business tax to nine per cent and increasing corporate tax to 19 per cent, Jaques said. Born in Winnipeg in 1965, he was part of the 1960s scoop. He didn’t learn that he was adopted until he was 24 years old. After training and working in corrections in Manitoba he became an RCMP officer in
1995. He was posted to B.C. where he spent the next 14 years in First Nations Community Policing. “I spent all my time on reserves and I understand the problems people are facing with housing, water quality, education and elder care,” he said. Jaques also said Highway 97 needs to be improved sooner than later to help with road safety issues. Shortly after his
retirement from the RCMP, he decided to return to school to finish his Bachelor of Education Degree and applied to the University of British Columbia in 2010 and was accepted into the B.Ed./NITEP (Native Indian Teachers Education Program) where he is currently in the fourth year of studies. Jaques is the father of six children and his wife Sherri Springle is originally from Williams Lake.

Lakecity women help Syrian refugees
BECAUSE YOU CAN’T COPY THIS EXPERIENCE ON THE INTERNET.
Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer A group of local woman are working hard to provide relief for Syrian refugees. Miriam Silveira held a fundraiser at her home Wednesday, selling new and gently used clothing to help Syrian refugees who are arriving in her home city of Sao Paulo, Brazil and her friends supported her efforts.
“Ten families a day are arriving and being helped by churches,” Silveira said. “One of my friends there posted on the internet asking for help.” In the first week of October she is going to Brazil for two months and plans to take money there to help buy things for the refugees. “There are lots of children there without parents because the parents are sending the

Celebrating Forestry
Celebrating our forests Steve Thomson Celebrating Forestry 2015 As Minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, I always look forward to celebrating National Forest Week. Forestry is a key economic driver supporting families all across B.C. In 2014, forestry provided 60,700 direct jobs, and generated $12.4 billion in exports — accounting for 35 per cent of all B.C. goods exported. One of the risks to our forests and its economic benefits is wildfire. Fire is a normal, natural process in many of British Columbia’s ecosystems. Many species of plants, birds, insects and other animals depend on fire for its regenerative properties. Fire also helps control insects and spread of disease in forests. It also creates forest regeneration, as younger trees re-
Steve Thomson place older trees. Land managers also use prescribed or control burns to restore ecosystems, to enhance habitat and improve forage, or to reduce the wildfire risk around communities. In 2004, we introduced the Strategic Wildfire Prevention Initiative to help local governments and First Nations reduce wildfire risks around their communities. We’ve provided more than $67 million. To date, 286 communities have completed community wildfire protection plans and the fuel build-up on
over 78,000 hectares of land has been reduced. To complement those efforts, working with the Union of British Columbia Municipalities we have introduced the 2016 FireSmart Grant Program. Fifty grants of up to $10,000 each will be made available to local governments and First Nations to help communities identify and reduce wildfire risks on private land. And in keeping with this year’s theme for National Forest Week, Wildland Fire — you can make a difference. I’d like to remind property owners that they can reduce the wildfire risk on their properties through landscaping and following the tips in the FireSmart Homeowner’s manual (http:// www.bcwildfire.ca/Prevention/firesmart.html). I’d also like to remind British Columbians that the number of humancaused fires remains too
high. Of the 1,805 wildfires this summer, 545 were caused by humans. Because of the high percentage of humancaused fires that persists year after year, I asked parliamentary secretary to review the fines and penalties in place under the Wildfire Act for human-caused fires — and human interference in firefighting. Twice in August, firefighting operations were shut down because of drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles, flying in restricted airspace. Drones put lives and public safety at risk. In addition to asking Transport Canada to strengthen its regulations, we’re looking to see how we can strengthen the Wildfire Act. I hope during National Forest Week you take the time to enjoy the great outdoors and appreciate the beauty of our forests.

Community forest puts emphasis on bark beetles Ken Day Celebrating Forestry 2015 Williams Lake Community Forest Limited Partnership is a partnership between the Williams Lake Indian Band and the City of Williams Lake which received a Community Forest Agreement in 2014. To date, the Community Forest has been focused on engaging the Standing Committee on Resource Interests and Values, holding public meetings to take input on the Forest Stewardship Plan, and beginning operational planning for harvesting in 2015/16. So far, the emphasis is on Douglas-fir bark beetles. The Douglas-fir

Plans underway to harvest infested trees Continued From Page A16 While they generally don’t attack healthy living trees, fir beetles breed up in trees recently killed, so events such as the fires of 2010 and the wind storm of April 2015 give them lots of host material to attack and develop a strong brood that can go on to kill standing green trees. Citizens have undoubtedly noticed many red trees apparent on the hillsides around the Cariboo. These are trees attacked and killed in 2014, from which a new generation of beetles emerged this past April and May. Like pine beetles, fir beetles kill their host by introducing a fungus into the tree that plugs up the water-conducting tissues of the stem
and trees turn red because they can’t get water to their needles. Forest managers in the local resource district office, forest companies, woodlots, and community forests are making plans to harvest infested trees and suppress the development of the infestation before the current brood emerges next spring. There are several tools available to manage the infestation, and all of them are in use in the WL Community Forest: Prompt sanitation harvesting — find the infested trees that are still green because those are the ones attacked this summer. Harvest those trees and send them through the mill before the end of winter. Trap trees — fall trees to cause the bark bee-
tles to attack these recently killed trees, and then remove the trap trees in concert with sanitation harvesting. The community forest has felled more than 300 trap trees in the spring of 2015. Funnel traps — set out traps baited with the bark beetles’ aggregation pheromones (the scent that beetles use to bring other beetles into an attack centre). Beetles enter the trap and cannot get out again. People may be used to seeing these hanging around the local log yards in the summer. Anti-aggregation pheromones (the scent beetles use to send the message that “this tree is full”) — used to push attacking beetles away from an important area (e.g. bike trails). These are particularly helpful in a push-

Salvage — harvest windthrown trees and those previously killed by bark beetles to salvage the timber value while carrying out the other strategies. Douglas-fir beetle sani-
tation occurs within the land where other management objectives apply. On the community forest, bark beetles are being managed within mule deer habitat, recreation developments, cattle range areas, and visual quality areas. The occurrence of bark beetles doesn’t
suspend the other land management objectives. Managing those objectives includes sanitation of bark beetles, and those of us that live in the area should expect to see logging trucks loaded with Douglas-fir coming out of the forests near our homes this fall and
winter. For more information on WL Community Forest LP, please refer to our website: https://williamslakecommunityforest. wordpress.com/. Ken Day is a registered professional forester and is the manager of the UBC Alex Fraser Research Forest.

West Fraser celebrates 60 years Monica-Lamb Yorski Celebrating Forestry 2015 West Fraser Mills has been marking its 60th anniversary in various communities, including Williams Lake. In advance of the company’s celebration held Sept. 12, Williams Lake Plywood Plant general manager Dave Walgren credited the company’s ongoing success to maintaining the same operating philosophy first established by the company in 1955. “We focus on people, safety and our operating metrics and those metrics haven’t changed,” said Walgren who has been with the company for 25 years. Pointing to a poster on the coffee room wall that outlined a simple set of goals established in the 1970s, Walgren said those goals haven’t changed. They include excellence in performance
Monica Lamb-Yorski photo West Fraser Plywood plant general manager Dave Walgren (left) and sawmill manager Jordan Townsend (right) say as the company celebrates its 60th anniversary it’s the goals established in 1955 that have kept the company moving forward. and people, leadership in the field, challenge and satisfaction, responsibility in the communities in which they work, profitability and growth. West Fraser first started in Quesnel in 1955 with the purchase of Two Mile Planer. In 1957 West Fraser purchased a sawmill and planer from Wright Lumber Company in Williams Lake which
tied into their plans for harvesting operations in an area west of the Fraser River in the Chilcotin. On May 15, 1958 the name was changed to West Fraser to reflect the operations it had west of the Fraser River. In 2005, West Fraser purchased Weldwood and acquired the plywood plant, which was built in 1978.
Eventually the plywood plant was upgraded from two lathes to one that does more veneer because of the scanning. The present day sawmill was built in 1971 and fired up in 1972, said general manager Jordan Townsend. Then in 2013, a new planer at the mill went into operation. Townsend who has
been the sawmill general manager for just over a year said technology in the mill has changed considerably. “We use a lot of lasers and things now to maximize every little bit of the log we can. We don’t waste anything.” The new planer has a lineal high grader that uses lasers, x-rays and LED lights. “It is quite amazing really,” Townsend said, noting the canter line, installed in 2003, also has new scanners. “It scans the log and then we rotate the log to the position that’s going to give us the most out of that log. Then we basically shave it on all four sides to make squares or cants and run it through the saws.” Celebrating 60 years is also about celebrating a collection of a number of different companies, Walgren said. “We were a whole bunch of different com-
panies that are all now part of West Fraser. We all have the same simple focus that started on Two Mile Flat in Quesnel in the 50s.” West Fraser has a different decision making structure and management style and when it comes to making decisions there are many people involved, Walgren added. “Sometimes it seems we spend an inordinate amount of time talking about it but we believe if we do that, whether it’s a small decision or a big decision, once the decision is made everybody has bought into it.” The company expects to be in Williams Lake for another 60 years at least although Walgren agreed it will be a different looking forest industry in the future. “There is a lot of employment and opportunity and in our lifetime it will look different because of what the pine
beetle has done, but talking long term, it’s a really good industry to be in.” At the plywood plant there are presently 350 employees who keep the mill running 24 hours, five days a week with a 32-hour weekend shift. In the sawmill, there are 175 employees also running the mill 24 hours, five days a week. Crews on the weekend shifts continue to clean both sites, with dust control being a main focus. “We make sure we educate everybody at the site on how much dust is too much,” Townsend said. There has been a huge change in the last two years when it comes to dust, Walgren said. “It’s part of our indoctrination, it’s part of our training and practices,” he said, noting when he started working 25 years ago it was normal to walk through a half inch of dust on site.

Tsi Del Del Enterprises continues to grow Monica-Lamb Yorski Celebrating Forestry 2015 The logging venture Tsi Del Del Enterprises has been making leaps and bounds in terms of the amount of logs harvested, said Tsi Del Del (Redstone) Chief Percy Guichon. In 2010 the company harvested 75,000 cubic metres and in 2014 harvested 225,000 cubic metres. “We have tripled the amount of wood and greatly increased the amount of employees within our company,” Guichon said, noting there are 55 people presently employed. The enterprise is a joint venture between Tolko and Tsi Del Del that has been in operation for 23 years. More and more timber is being harvested within Tsi Del Del’s traditional territory, generating economic development for the community, neighbours and people from other communities — First Nations and non-First Nations. A governing board for the enterprise is made up of three members from Tolko — Tom Hoffman, Rick Mumford and Earl Corsi — and three from Tsi Del Del including Guichon, and band councillors Otis Guichon and Clayton Charleyboy. The increase in harvest amount has been possible, Guichon said, because the band took advantage of an offer by the provincial government for a mountain pine beetle kill uplift license. As well, the government’s Forest Resource Opportunities (FRO) program has also provided timber. “We took full advantage so the band owns the forest licenses and Tsi Del Del Enterprises, the joint venture, is the contractor,” Guichon said, noting the band retains 100 per cent profit on its own licenses and the logging company is a separate entity. Additionally the band is part of a community forest license which is a joint venture between the Tsi Del Del Band and Tatla Lake Re-
sources Association. “We have gone into buying high tech equipment, such as a multistem processor and are one of the few companies that have tried it and succeeded,” Guichon said, noting the machine processes two or three trees at a time, a necessity because the wood is getting smaller and smaller. “You have to be innovative,” he chuckled. Wood from the band’s licenses is sold 50/50 to West Fraser and Tolko in Williams Lake. “We have many First Nations that work in the mills so we are supporting the local economy,” Guichon added. Tsi Del Del Enterprises manager Philippe Theriault who started with the company in 1999 said everyone is proud of the fact that they are the biggest employer of Tsilhqot’in people in the logging industry. “We are also very proud to be working with other bands,” Theriault said. “As we grew we reached out to other First Nation communities for equipment and potential employees. That’s part of our growth model.” The enterprise also works with neighbouring Shuswap and Carrier bands as well, he noted. A forest technician by trade, Guichon said everyone is aware the Allowable Annual Cut will be drastically reduced and the harvesting won’t be at the present levels, but he believes they will be in operation decades into the future. In anticipation of the cut, they have switched the focus and branched out to Douglas Fir salvage in the Chilcotin, Theriault said. That belief in the future of the industry is also apparent in an education trust fund where 50 cents per cubic metre of harvested timber is invested to help band members access training and courses in whatever field they want. “We only get so much money to help students with post-secondary education so the trust fund is geared for short-term

programs,” Guichon said. During the last year, 30 community members have been funded for training, Guichon said. As other people try and exit the forest industry, Tsi Del Del Enterprises is hoping for a bigger piece of the pie. “We are proud to be here in the Chilcotin and we want to stay,” Theriault said.

Tough markets inspire ingenuity and focus If you’re paying attention to recent forest industry news, you know times are uncertain as National Forest Week 2015 approaches. In an industry that is used to going through challenging times, recent market conditions are proving to be challenging, leaving many to wonder about the future of the industry in B.C. But at Tolko’s Williams Lake mills — Soda Creek and Lakeview — the challenges and changes are doing more than make people worry, they’re inspiring creativity and focus, a drive to make sure that these mills will still be here, contributing the industry and the community for years to come, as they always have. “It’s easy to say ‘times are challenging’ and throw up your
hands,” says Mike Dextrase, Plant Manager at Soda Creek. “But we haven’t done that, instead we’ve chosen to focus on controlling the things we can control such as safety, productivity, and quality to ensure we remain viable in this market.” His comments are echoed by Randy Chadney, Plant Manager at Tolko’s Lakeview mill. “We understand that we are in tough market conditions and we know what we have to do to stay in the game. As a result of our efforts, we are competitive within the industry.” Both Dextrase and Chadney contribute their continued success to a number of things — there have been some necessary capital upgrades in recent years as well as a focus on improving
Tribune file photo Challenges in the forest industry are inspiring creativity and focus at both Tolko’s Soda Creek and Lakeview mills. product quality and consistency — but both acknowledge that it’s the people they work with on a daily basis who keep the mill moving in the right direction. “Our teams know the industry, they are savvy and know what’s going on,” says Chadney. “Instead of being negative, they’ve
joined us in seeing this as an opportunity to focus in on what we have to do to be competitive. They have done an exceptional job of moving us in the right direction. Every day I come to work and I am beyond impressed by the quality of employee and the level of dedication that we have here in
Williams Lake.” Dextrase and Chadney also had high praise for their Woodlands group as well noting that their ability to get the right log to the right place at the right time has played a key role in the continued success. “I don’t believe most people understand the complex-
ity of log delivery,” says Dextrase. “Our Woodlands team has to make sure the fibre we have at the mill allows us to produce the quality and quantity needed for the market. It isn’t as simple as loading a truck full of logs and sending it off to the mill, it’s a science and we’re very appreciative that our Woodlands team is one of the best in the industry.” When we ask Dextrase and Chadney if there is more that can be done to improve the position of the mill they tell us that outside of doing what they’re doing, government intervention can help change the future of forestry in B.C. “We are a green, sustainable, renewable industry that provides jobs to local communities over multiple generations,” says Dextrase.
“We have been recognized the world over for our renewability practices; positive changes in our forestry practices would go a long way toward ensuring the continued success of the industry. We are doing everything we can from our side, now we just need to strengthen the policy side of things to make sure we’re in the best place possible going forward.” Soda Creek and Lakeview employ more than 450 people between them and numerous contractors and truckers. Their footprint in the community is large and the company contributes significantly to the local economy.

Healthy schools grow healthy kids Any gardener will tell you that watching plants flourish through the summer is a rewarding experience and gives a great sense of accomplishment. Healthy plants require a good foundation, strong roots, and regular tending. Children are very similar — for them to flourish they need healthy environments, strong connections to family, and adults in their lives who
show they care! Classrooms and school grounds, where students spend at least 25 hours a week, are a great environment for nourishing our children. Along with learning the basics like reading and mathematics, schools provide lessons about respecting the differences in others, acting in a responsible and caring fashion, and they
teach strategies to help children thrive in our ever-changing world. Schools that promote a sense of belonging see both positive academic and health-related outcomes. The good news is presently the majority of B.C. students are happy to be at school and feel safe there. According to the BC Adolescent Health Survey, students who reported feeling con-

nected at school were more likely to describe their mental health as good or excellent and were more likely to see themselves continuing their education beyond high school. Students who had an adult in their family they trusted if faced with a serious problem were also more likely to describe their mental health as good or excellent and were more likely to have post-second-
ary education plans. Approachable adults contribute to a healthy environment! Healthy Schools BC encourages schools to use a multi-pronged approach to create a healthy school environment. These include: creating school environments that are safe and caring, teaching and learning that encourages information seeking and problem solving,
creating and enforcing school policies that encourage appropriate behavior, and connecting with community. Supportive school environments encourage youth to stay in school, graduate from high school, and they give them a better chance at post-secondary education. Healthy schools are like a nutrient rich garden for growing healthy children. With a good
foundation, strong roots and regular tending kids can flourish.

You’re Blessed If I were to tell you that you have been blessed today, some of you would agree; some would wonder what I am talking about, and some would think that I had two heads! That’s because we associate blessings with material wealth like a house, or a car, or a boat, and of course money. We tend to overlook things like seeing, walking, talking, and reasoning - which are all blessings. God has blessed us in so many ways, but we don’t even notice them or better yet we take them for granted. Did you know that God created rest? Look at Genesis 2:3 it says, “God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.” Even nature rests. Plants go dormant and animals hibernate. So take our sleep for an example. Specialists say: “When we’ve gotten good sleep, we are happier, nicer and healthier.” So why is it that we have decreased from nine hours (what most people
made women (Genesis 2:22). God blessed man with a wife (lifelong companion). This is one of our great blessings in life (companionship). God did not intend for you to be alone. His intention was for man to have companionship. Did you know that God also blessed us with the church? That’s right the church, a place where you can experience companionship. The church only wants you to know that God blesses you, PARSONS PEN even when you didn’t know it. BY CAPT. BEN LIPPERS Just look at how Jesus began his Sermon on the Mount with require)(before electricity) to “God blesses those who realize six hours and 58 minutes sleep their need for him; those who per night? Maybe that explains morn; those who are gentle and why many of us are freaked out, lowly; those who are hungry miserable, depressed, anxious, and thirsty for justice; those over stressed and just cranky all who are merciful; those who the time. are pure; those who work for Folks, God wants us to be peace; those who are persecuted happy! He took extra special because they live for God.” care when he created man and See, what really matters is women. He crafted us with his that you know that God has own hands and then He put given you grace, forgiveness, and his lips on man and breathed salvation through His son Jesus into him (Genesis 2:7). He Christ. And if you have Jesus took the rib from man and Christ you are never alone.

City cultural map now in circulation Art Walk awards presented
BIA members Elaine Winslow (left) and Jan Hermiston with copies of the new cultural map which is now available.
The city has a brand new map to guide visitors and locals alike on a walking or driving tour around downtown Williams Lake to visit the city’s murals, sculptures, gardens, and heritage sites. With the addition of the city’s latest mural unveiled Saturday on the Spirit Square side of the Crosina Realty building, the city now has 17 beautiful murals to visit. With the exception of the Crosina Realty mural which was not completed by printing time, all of the other murals are indicated on the cultural map. The new map, which was almost three years in the making by the
BIA with help from lakecity artists Dwayne Davis and Dave Abbott, also outlines some of the major cultural events in the city such as Art Walk and the Winter Lights and Santa Claus Parade. The map is being distributed to businesses and tourism information centres in Williams Lake, 100 Mile House and Quesnel for the public to pick up and enjoy. The map also includes information about the collaborative Alley Art Mural Mentorship Project, an ongoing, provincial program providing an educational component for budding mural artists.
Artists and business representatives hosting the 2015 Art Walk and Sale gathered at the Seniors’ Activity Centre Saturday evening for a wrap-up party and announcement of the various art walk prize winners. A total of 209 art walk passports were turned in to qualify for the grand prize draw of a necklace valued at $550 designed and created by Geoff Bourdon for the BIA’s art walk project. “It is a very big number for a small town,” said Arty the Art Walker Willie Dye in announcing that 10 per cent more people participated in art walk this year than last year.

Sea Cadets invite youth to challenge themselves The Royal Canadian 202 Sea Cadets in Williams Lake are starting a new season and invite youth ages 12 to 18 to join them. Sea cadets learn all sorts of skills and during the summer many of the cadets have attended camps to hone those skills, says Sharon Haynes, Navy League of Canada Chilcotin Branch 202 branch president. “Their year was full of training,” Haynes says. “Marksmanship, sailing in Kamloops, fundraisers, a Halloween dance, ceremonial Christmas Dinner, and a Bond Lake Breakout retreat are just some of the interesting activities Sea Cadets do,” Haynes said.
Events and activities held on Thursday evenings are provided free of charge. Part of the sea cadet training involves learning to sail the Whaler, which was part of the exhibits on display during the sea cadets annual ceremonial review in Spirit Square in June, which is a highlight of the Cadet year. “The review shows the development of the cadets throughout the year,” Haynes says. “The Sea Cadets provided the audience with manoeuvres that they perform when they are using the Whaler.” See ACHIEVEMENT Page A25

Anna Roberts mentors potters in use of local clays Sage Birchwater Special to Tribune/Advisor In case you are looking for something special to do around Williams Lake at the end of September, consider checking out Anna Roberts’ annual pottery show and sale the last Friday and Saturday of the month. Anna has been producing pottery from local clay for more than 50 years. “Once again I have
a studio full of handbuilt pottery that will be displayed outside my studio at 2202 Grebe Drive,” she says. Shortly after arriving in the Cariboo in 1958, Anna discovered that the area has good clay for making pottery. Five decades later, she still digs her own clay around the Cariboo. Preparation of the clay she has collected is quite labour-intensive. First it must be washed
and screened to remove organic material and stones. Then each batch must be tested for its colour. When she first started working with clay, Anna used a wheel for her bowls, pots and cups. Now she hand-builds all her creations. For some of her pots or bowls she only glazes the interior to make them waterproof, leaving the outsides unglazed to show the
interesting colours of local iron-bearing clays. One of Anna’s trademarks is to decorate the outsides of her pots with designs made from nature. She imprints them with pieces of weathered wood or bark chewed by insects. She also makes burnished ware, finishing them off in an outside fire to give colour variations. These signature Anna pieces are highly prized by art collectors.
The Church on 11th (Evangelical Free Church) is thrilled to announce that they have a new lead pastor, John Nicholson, who started his ministry here in Williams Lake just this month. John and Lynn Nicholson were married in November 1986 and have been enjoying serving the Lord in three previous pastorates, Bow Island, Three Hills, and Quesnel. The Lord has blessed John and Lynn with two boys, who are both in university.

John and Lynn like going on evening walks with their Golden Retriever,Piper,and hanging out with friends around the campfire. They have thoroughly enjoyed pastoring and growing with the congregations they have served and they look forward with joy to the days ahead in ministry in Williams Lake.

“I took numerous workshops that were brought to the area by the Cariboo Potters Guild, and I developed my own techniques through experimentation, trial and error,” she says. Anna helped found the Cariboo Potters Guild in the 1967 with a group of other potters, and served as the Guild’s first president. The Guild started after renowned Cariboo artist Vivien Cowan invited acclaimed potter, Zelko Kujundzic, to give pottery workshops to members of the Sugar Cane community. She asked Anna to be Ku-
jundzic’s assistant. “One of my responsibilities was to bring the participants from the Sugar Cane village to the Onward Ranch where Vivien lived,” Anna remembers. After success with the residents of Sugar Cane, Anna turned her attention to the community of Williams Lake and struck fertile ground. The response was overwhelming and 30 people signed up for a workshop with Kujundzic. Two workshops were required to accommodate all the people. Anna continues to work steadily in her
studio overlooking Williams Lake, sharing her time and passing on her skills to a select group of apprentices. Her one-of-a-kind show and sale will take place during the daylight hours on Friday, Sept. 25 and Saturday, Sept. 26. As in past years her work will be displayed outdoors near her studio. overlooking Williams Lake. Anna’s place at 2202 Grebe Drive, is seven kilometres down South Lakeside Drive from the Highway 20 intersection. It’s the first driveway to the left after crossing the railway tracks.

tion donates $2.” The Daybreak Rotary’s A-Pork-Alypse fundraising dinner, auction and dance takes place this Saturday evening, Sept. 21 in the Let R Buck Saloon behind the Stampede Grandstand.

Visitors welcome to Tsilhqot’in Title Lands Informatioin Bulletin Moving forward with transitioning Tsilhqot’in Title Lands from Provincial to Tsilhqot’in management, the Xeni Gwet’in First Nations Government, one of six Tsilhqot’in communities and caretakers of the Tsilhqot’in Title Lands, have developed rules and regulations for visitors to the area. All visitors must adhere to the Visitor Protocol and Nemiah Declaration. At this time, hunting remains closed
on Tsilhqot’in Title Lands for all species. Access through Tsilhqot’in Title Lands for hunting purposes
also remains closed. For those wishing to fish, all current provincial water and angling regulations must

be followed. The Xeni Gwet’in First Nations Government will have monitors on the ground and are working jointly with provincial Conservation Officers to ensure rules and regulations are adhered to. Through a joint effort between the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations and the Tsilhqot’in National Government, information signs marking en-
try points to the Title Lands have also been erected to assist with orientation. The Supreme Court of Canada recognized Aboriginal title held by the Tsilhqot’in Nation on June 26, 2014. Aboriginal title includes the right to exclusive use and occupation of the land, the right to the economic benefits of the land, and the ability to determine how the land is used.
This case is preceded by the judgment of the BC Court of Appeal confirming that the Tsilhqot’in hold Aboriginal rights to hunt, trap and trade throughout the entire claim area. Xeni Gwet’in and the Tsilhqot’in Nation continue to engage with the Province of British Columbia and local owners and operators to support good governance of the Tsilhqot’in Title Lands for
the benefit and enjoyment of all. Learn More: • For a map of the Title Area and more information on Tsilhqot’in Nation v.

HUNTING GUIDE
Hunting licences for youth and beginners The youth licence is issued on behalf of the youth, but held by the parent or guardian. As always, any youth 10 years of age or older who wants to take CORE and get their own regular hunting licence and bag limit entitlement can still do so. All youth under 18 years of age must be accompanied by an experienced supervising hunter. The cost of the youth licence is $7.00. INITIATION HUNTING LICENCE An initiation hunting licence is available to allow a person 18 years or older who has
never previously held a hunting licence in B.C. to try hunting for a period of time. It is a onetime-only licence and requires that the person be accompanied by an experienced supervising hunter. The cost of the initiation licence is $19.00. SUPERVISING YOUTH OR INITIATION HUNTERS Hunters under the age of 18, or hunters hunting under the authority of an Initiation Hunting Licence, must be accompanied and closely supervised while hunting by a person who meets the pre-
scribed qualifications. To be eligible to supervise a Youth or Initiation Licensed hunter, the supervising person must: • If a resident, hold a resident hunter number card. • If not a resident, must have passed a hunter safety training course in another jurisdiction in North America to supervise youth. • To supervise an Initiation Licensed Hunter a basic hunting licence (unless exempt) is required. • Have held a hunting licence (or be exempted from holding a licence), other than an Initia-
tion Hunting Licence, in British Columbia, or a licence to hunt in another jurisdiction, in not fewer than 3 of any of the licence years preceding the current licence year. This qualification does not apply to a guide outfitter supervising the holder of an Initiation Hunting Licence. • If an Indian residing in BC, have received training in hunting and previously hunted lawfully without supervision. • Not be prohibited from carrying or p o s sessing a firearm. • Not accompany or supervise more than
two youth hunters, two Initiation Licensed Hunters, or one youth and one Initiation Licensed Hunter at one time. • Persons hunting under the youth licence

HUNTING GUIDE
Venison makes delicious hunting camp supper Now that we are officially into fall and hunting season, it’s a good time for a venison recipe. We were fortunate to have some nice venison given to us last fall and if the hunter is lucky this season, perhaps we will have more passed to us. When I was growing up in the prairies, my grandfather and fa-
ther hunted a lot, and so I ate venison that was cooked practically every way possible. There was lots of venison stew, great steaks and some tasty roasts. I enjoy venison especially that meat from a young deer. Older animals and mature cuts can be marinated for up to three days to help break down the

Cariboo Chilcotin Wilderness
Elk population makes a comeback A natural unassisted elk recovery is underway in the Cariboo, and has the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, in collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture, trying to develop an Elk Management Plan for the region.
In the spring of 2014, members of the public were invited to submit their feedback on a bulletin summarizing elk ecology, population status and management options which are all now under review. Once the dominant large ungulate species
in Cariboo-Chilcotin ecosystems, the elk population declined precipitously about 125 years ago. Historically, elk ranged across much of the grasslands and forests of the Cariboo Region from the Fraser River west to Choelquio Lake and
Anahim Lake, south to the Chilcotin River and Meldrum Creek areas, and east to Canim Lake and Mahood Lake. First Nations oral history and reports from early explorers indicate the presence of elk in the 1800s and 1900s, while archaeo-
This bull elk was spotted with a herd of cattle in the 100 Mile House area in recent years. Elk are making a slow recovery in the Cariboo.
logical evidence supports the presence of elk as far back as 500 BC. Although primarily a grazing species, elk eat a wide variety of plants, shrubs and trees. Their adaptable diet enables them to occupy a range of habitats, including forested stands, grasslands and mountainous alpine and sub-alpine areas. As in other parts of the province, elk populations in the Cariboo-Chilcotin declined from the mid1800s through the mid-1900s. It is estimated that currently the elk population has increased to about 300, with the majority of these elk now located in the Quesnel area. A dozen or so are in the Horsefly area. Elk hunting in the Horsefly/Wells area is currently closed for conservation and range extension.
HUNTING GUIDE
Conservation Officer Service warns of scam The Conservation Officer Service is warning Williams Lake and area residents of a scam involving the illegal sale of elk and moose meat. Sgt. Len Butler said the scam sees the suspects going door-to-door in neighbourhoods collecting money and orders for wild
game. The suspects then take the money and never return with the meat. Butler wants to remind the public it is illegal to buy or sell wild game. He said the COS is investigating these individuals from complaints in the Quesnel area last year as well.
NOTICE TO HUNTERS BADGER SIGHTINGS Hunters and trappers should be aware that the BC subspecies of Badger is federally endangered and on the BC Red List. There are no hunting or trapping seasons for badgers. The estimated population is less than 300 animals. Badgers still occur in the Cariboo, Thompson, Nicola, Okanagan, Boundary and East Kootenay. Please report sightings of Badgers in BC to 1-888-223-4376. Badger information can be found at ww.badgers. bc.ca

BCRA champions crowned A local saddle bronc rider, junior steer rider and steer wrestler were among the champions crowned this past weekend at Quesnel’s Alex Fraser Park when the B.C. Rodeo Association Finals rode into town. BCRA representatives said the finals were extremely successful and, despite rain on Saturday, all 101 contestants from around the province were competing hard for the sudden death win of a championship buckle. The 2015 Championship winners and average winners are as follows: The top saddle bronc rider of the championship buckle was Cliff Schuk of Tatla Lake, bringing home $1,031.25 with round and average. Kaila Mussell of Chilliwack took second for $937.50 and Christoph Muigg of Hazelton was third with $843.75. Mussell, however, was the saddle bronc season leader for the saddle. Kamloops’ Ty Hamill was the season leader to win the saddle, but the championship finals buckle went to Quesnel’s Lane Cork, who had 150 points in the average at the end of the day. Cork won $562.50 with a first-round score of 80 and had a second-round score of 82 to win $687.50. He went on to win the third round with a score of 77 to win $1,250. Quesnel’s Matt O’Flynn won the first round with an 83 to win $687.50 and was second in the average for $375.50.

Tour de Cariboo raises more than $37,000 Greg Sabatino Staff Writer Big Brothers Big Sisters of Williams Lake executive director Melissa Newberry said she was floored by the amount of money raised by riders during Saturday’s 23rd Annual Tour de Cariboo. While numbers were slightly down for this year’s tour — a 75-kilometre bike trek from Williams Lake to Gavin Lake — 56 riders helped raise more than $37,000 for the local organization — funds that will be used to support its various programs such as in-school mentoring and community-based matching. “Those riders raised a lot of money,” Newberry said, noting the effort from all is appreciated. “Also, the board, staff and volunteers at all the rest stops along the way did an amazing job.” She said the weather was good, for the most part, and added the course was in good shape. “One thing I heard this year is everyone’s always a little nervous of the gravel section between the main road and Gavin Lake and it was in the best condition they’d ever experienced, so that was really good,” she said. This year’s fastest male rider was Paul

Williams Lake Storm and the girls U14 Storm both claimed gold medals, while the boys U14/ U15 Storm took home fourth and the boys U12/ U13 Storm finished with two losses and a tie. For the boys U17/U18 Storm, head coach Brian Hansen said it was a great weekend. The Storm downed the Shuswap, 3-0, Vernon 3-0, tied Columbia Valley 0-0, then hammered Golden in their final game, 8-0. “The Shuswap game was fast and physical but we were able to take advantage of our chances, while our back line remained solid,” Hansen said. “The team from Vernon played very good soccer moving the ball quickly and continually changing direction and angle of attack. “We were pushed into our end for the first 15 minutes of the game but as [we] adjusted to the style of play, the game changed into an exciting end to end game.” He said taking advantage of opportunities while the defensive end and goalkeeping remained solid played a key role in the team’s success. The Columbia Valley game was another fast-paced affair, Hansen said, with both teams attempting to control the midfield. “There were lots of chances at both ends that both teams wish they had finished,” he said. “In the end, a tie was appropriate.” The team travelled with 14 players from Quesnel and Williams Lake. Goal scoring came from nine different players — something Hansen said was a positive result. “Every player was focused and contributed 100 per cent every game,” he said. “We started with a high level of intensity and maintained this work rate throughout the weekend which was the key. It was really enjoyable to watch the boys during the weekend and they deserved the win in the end.” The girls U14 Storm, meanwhile, dominated their division, allowing just one goal in four games. The Storm clobbered Canmore 10-0, defeated

The Williams Lake Storm U14/U15 boys finished fourth, after falling in a shootout in the bronze-medal match. Columbia Valley 6-1, shutout Kootenay South 7-0, then blanked the Shuswap, 2-0, to win gold. The win adds to an impressive resumé the team has amassed throughout the summer. The Storm won gold at the Shore ‘n’ Score Cup in Salmon Arm late August, and finished with a silver medal at the Kelowna Summer Heat tournament in Kelowna early August. On the U14/U15 boys side, the Storm came within a hair of playing in the championship.
The team began with a 3-3 tie against Kootenay East, with Jack Zavitz and Ethan Alexander helping the team to within a goal, before Jacob Helminger buried a free kick buzzer beater to end the contest in a draw. Next, they fell 2-1 to Nelson. Mokam Mahil was the lone goal scorer for Williams Lake. After two games, the team found itself tied with Kootenay East for second place, sending the two teams to a shootout tiebreaker. Goalkeeper Melkum Pitt was solid to give the Storm
the win, sending them to the bronze-medal match, however, lost to finish fourth. In the U13/U14 division, the Storm lost 2-0, 2-1, and tied a game, 1-1. “They ended the year playing really well as a team,” said manager Shannon Boomer. “Derek Rispin did a great job in net for the team, while Pacey Boomer and Ben Airey scored the two goals for us. “Overall, it was a good way to end the season and coach Dave Herrling was very happy with the way they played.”

Likely for the 24th annual Unlikely Paddlefest. The event takes place on the Quesnel River starting at downtown Likely and ending at Quesnel Forks. Paddling also takes place down the Cariboo River converging at Quesnel Forks. Organizers note the sockeye salmon run is in full swing and the weekend is shaping up to be a good one filled with kayaking, rafting and observing the salmon run.
Ben Huston, 10, rides the local trails Monday evening. Fall offers a great time for riders to get out and enjoy the beautiful colours and good trail conditions.

Bernard Pacholczyk
April 5, 1927 - July 12, 2015 It is with great sadness the family announces the passing of Bernard Pacholczyk on July 12, 2015. Lovingly remembered by his wife of sixty-five years, Adriana (Adrie); daughter Anna Maria (Bill), son Bernard (Rhonda); grandchildren Bernie (Kim), Krystal (Mike) and Melissa; great grandchildren Cassandra, Jaiden, Vance and Seth; sister Irena, brother Ed, brother-in-law Anton (Onnemie), sister-in-law Minnie, and many nieces and nephews. Bernard was well known as a local building contractor, and took a lot of pride in many rock and concrete retaining walls throughout the area. He was a long time member of OAPO, Knights of Columbus, and 400 Club. He loved his home and garden. Service and mass to be held at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, 11:00 am, Friday, September 25. Refreshments to follow.
Sally was born in Domremy, Saskatchewan to Peter and Jensine Johansen. She grew up on the family farm and attended the Northern Lights School until 1944 when the family moved to Matsqui, BC. Sally attended Matsqui Elementary and then Philip Sheffield High School in Abbotsford, from which she graduated in June 1954. Three months later, on September 18, 1954, she married Richard ‘Dick’ Chappell. They lived on a small farm in Abbotsford where they grew and sold vegetables until November 1959 when they bought DJ Sales & Service Ltd. with brother-in-law Jim Fraser (later known as DJ Toyota) and moved to Williams Lake. Sally and Dick had four children - Dallas, Shelley, Jay and David. They raised their children in the family home on 5th Avenue. Sally continued to live in that house for over 50 years! It was the gathering place for every occasion. Sally was a nurturer and was always teaching and sharing; particularly life skills that were important to her such as gardening, cooking, quilting, sewing, knitting, being a good person, showing love, being respectful and welcoming all regardless of circumstance. To her family, Sally was Mom, Mumsy, Gramma and Great Gramma. She loved them dearly and they loved her. Through her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, her traditions and values will live on. She will forever be missed by her children Shelley (Brian), Jay (Gord), David (Cindy) and her daughter-in-law Maureen; her grandchildren Brittany (Scot), Kyle (Kelsey), Mitchell (Krystal), Derek (Samantha), Randi, Evan, Devon, Daniel and Dennis; great grandchildren Layla, Jaxon, Ari and Dora; and sisters Ruth, Judith and Gudrun. Sally was predeceased by her husband Dick, eldest son Dallas, sisters June and Asta, and brothers Erlof, Russel, Harold and John. Sally can rest comfortably knowing that she will always be loved and never forgotten. The family gives special thanks to Dr. Paul Magnuson, Fay Breck, Fay Martens, Lana Davidson and the amazing nursing staff at the Cariboo Memorial Hospital, the BC Ambulance Service, Signal Point Events Centre, and Luc LaPrairie. All the flowers, cards, phone calls, food, hugs and expressions of love and support have been very much appreciated.

The facilitator will work with Little Moccasins Learning Centre in Williams Lake, and two elementary schools (Marie Sharpe and Nesika) to design and deliver a new model for engaging vulnerable families in their child’s learning. The Facilitator will help create and support the work of a project team comprising parents and practitioners. The project is funded by the Community Action Initiative, and the work is guided by a Collaborative Leadership Team. The Facilitator is contracted by CCPL and reports to the Project Manager. This is a new position, 15-20 hours a week.
