Two women were travelling from Sayward en route to the B.C. Inte-rior when fire broke out in their trailer Friday morning.

The women had just approached Campbell River and, after seeing smoke, pulled over to ask for direc-

tions to the nearest service shop. But the pair didn’t get very far

and they were forced to pull over on the side of Redwood Street as heavy smoke started to pour out of the trailer. Fire Chief Ian Baikie said firefighters were called to the scene at 9:23 a.m. and discovered a small fire in the wall behind the trailer’s fridge.

“The fridge appeared to malfunc-tion and fire burned inside the fridge,” Baikie said. “The lady had just bought (the trailer) a few days ago and she wasn’t from here.”

Baikie said it was an unfortunate scenario.

“Imagine being away from home and have that happen to you,” he said. “It was a sad situation.”

As the smoke got worse, the women pulled off the Island High-way in Campbellton and called 911.

Firefighters were on scene for 45 minutes, pulled the fridge out of the trailer and took the walls apart to extinguish the fire. Baikie said fire crews put the fridge back into place so the women could continue on their way to a repair shop.

School District 72 is facing budget cuts for the next school year to deal with declining student enrolment.

Going into last week’s board of education meeting, the board was looking at a $759,778 deficit for the 2014/15 school year budget.

Kevin Patrick, secretary-treasurer for SD72, said that was largely based on a loss of provincial funding as well as a deficit from last year.

“We had a funding reduction of $664,000 due to declining enrol-ment as well as a $398,000 structural deficit from the year before,” Patrick said. “We were able to reduce some of our expenses with needing less teachers because of a reduction in students.”

Still, said Patrick, the reduction in students does not fully offset the loss in funding due to fewer students.

So the board was forced to make cuts to its budget last week.

The board was aided by SD72 staff who prepared a list of proposed cost-savings taking into account feedback received through consultations with the Campbell River District Teach-ers’ Association, CUPE, the Camp-

bell River Principals’ and Vice-Principals’ Associa-tion, and district man-agement.

The board chose to reduce funds for long-term sick coverage for teaching staff by $100,000 which reflects historical usage, as well as cut $15,000 in admin-istrative expenses for the district’s international program. Patrick said the reduction will not affect recruitment and the district is expected to increase the number of international students studying in Campbell River. The board also approved $60,778 in partial staff reductions in student services, man-agement and a district non-enrolling teacher position.

“There will be a reduc-tion of two positions but there won’t be any lay-offs,” Patrick said. “We’re just taking small portions or re-allocating staff.”

To round out its list of cost-cutting measures, the board also approved cutting $2,000 for food at meetings as well as a sav-ings of $1,000 in cable vision, as cable feeds in all schools will end.

Patrick said schools will have to make a choice if they want cable access.

“If schools need it they will have to sign up for digital cable or they could access cable through Internet stream-ing,” Patrick said. “We’ll have to wait and see what happens.”

Following the cuts, the board also applied $566,000 from an unre-stricted surplus as well as an operational reduction of $193,778 to eliminate the deficit.

The board may look at increasing its rental fees for school facilities as well as the potential to increase lease revenue through attracting new tenants.

T h e p r e l i m i n a r y annual operating bud-get for 2014/2015 will be brought to the next public board meeting on May 20 for potential adoption. The school district has until June 30 to submit its final budget to the province.

Budget:Board reduces sick coverage

A new fire truck will cost the city significantly more than it budgeted for due to the decline in the Canadian to U.S. dollar exchange rate.

As a consequence, the city will have to put off its plan to re-fur-bish an existing 1993 fire truck from this fall until sometime next year.

The new ladder truck was expected to cost $1 million. How-ever, costs rose to $1.225 million, leaving the city with a shortfall of $225,000.

At Tuesday’s council meet-ing, Coun. Andy Adams recom-mended council make up the money by taking $75,000 from the capital works plan and $150,000 from the fire reserve which was to be used to re-furbish the 1993 fire truck. Instead, the refurbishment will be put off until 2015 financial planning.

Coun. Larry Samson asked Fire Chief Ian Baikie if that would hamper fire operations.

Baikie didn’t think there would be a problem.

“The intent here is to receive the new truck and once we have that truck in service, to send that (1993) truck off for an extended period of time to be refurbished, in the order of three or four months, and have the truck back by fall 2015,” Baikie said.

The re-furbished truck would then go to Fire Hall No.2 in Wil-low Point.

Baikie said ultimately the deci-sion on how to make up the shortfall is up to city council.

Dave Morris, the city’s general manager of facilities and supply management, said in a report to council that the cost for the truck went up due to a poor exchange rate, now at $1.13 per U.S. dollar. The Canadian dollar was above par with the greenback in 2012 when the cost was last checked with fire apparatus suppliers in the United States. The return to the PST and GST from the HST in April of last year also increased the tax expense from 5.25 per cent to seven per cent.

Myriah Foort, the city’s finance manager, told council the city is being proactive in making sure it does not find itself in a similar situation in the future.

“Finance has taken some steps to ensure this does not happen again,” Foort said. “We’ve been in detailed discussions with our bank in setting up a U.S. banking account. We have learned from this.”

Council approved purchasing the ladder truck from U.S. com-pany Rocky Mountain Phoenix for $1.225 million.

Baikie said it will probably take about one year to manufacture the truck and the fire department hopes to have the it arrive in June of 2015.

However, he said the fire department’s budget will incur the cost of the truck shortly so that the monies can be held in U.S. funds.

“We want to lock in the U.S. dollar this time so that the cost to our budget would be incurred as soon as possible to ensure our money’s in place,” Baikie said.

Rising U.S. dollar means rise in cost of new fire truck

A Port Hardy teen-ager was too drunk to form the intent for mur-der according to a B.C. Supreme Court judge who found him guilty of a lesser charge on Mon-day in Campbell River.

“I find you guilty of manslaughter,” said Jus-tice Miriam Maisonville.

Dakota Johnny was 19 years old when he blud-geoned Cindy Scow with a wooden dowling inside a dark and abandoned house on the Tsulquate First Nation Reserve on Sept. 9, 2012.

T h e 2 8 - y e a r - o l d

mother of seven young children was found by friends and relatives dying on the floor of a blood-splattered bed-room inside house #155. She was wearing noth-ing but a T-shirt and was covered in blood.

After hearing the case earlier this year, Justice Maisonville took just over a month to hand down her verdict.

She rejected defence arguments that Johnny acted in self-defence or may have been provoked after Scow allegedly bit his genitals. However, she couldn’t ignore the evidence of several wit-nesses who said Johnny

was intoxicated at the time of the fatal assault.

He had been drinking for a few days prior to his meeting with Scow and on the day of her death he had consumed beer, wine, hard liquor and marijuana.

The drinking began at a house party and by mid-day Johnny appeared intoxicated. When the group got kicked out, the party continued at another home and when they left there, a few peo-ple gathered outside the band office and across the street from house #155.

That night, a witness saw Johnny and Scow huddled together by the band office sharing a bottle of liquor. There was just the two of them and they appeared to be

enjoying each other’s company.

Sometime around 11 p.m., they went inside the abandoned home and then things went terribly wrong.

Crown prosecutor David Fitzs immons called a variety of experts who pieced together, what they could, of the savage beating that took place inside the room.

Blood splatter from Scow was found on the walls and ceiling, and pooled in the old car-peting where she finally collapsed. She had suf-fered at least six blows to the head with a wooden dowling that was found broken in two. She had also suffered several blows to her body.

The cause of death was blunt force trauma to her brain and she was also found with a significant blood/alcohol level.

After the beating, Johnny fled the scene,

When the rainy season begins, the hydro project contractors will be taking cover – deep cover.

Blasting is expected to start this October to build a brand new John Hart Generating Station, and the $1 billion project is all going underground.

That includes an 8.1-metre diameter tun-nel that will travel 2.1 kilometres from the John Hart dam, down-hill through bedrock to be connected with the underground power sta-tion.

When it’s all complete in 2017, the current pipe-lines and generating sta-tion will be dismantled.

The new facility will be more efficient and will generate a bit more

power.As well, the design

is expected to provide excellent seismic stabil-ity and a constant flow of water – even in a crises – to the Campbell River for fish and aquatic species.

The contractor selected by BC Hydro, SNC-Lava-lin, will start clearing construction sites in July with blasting to begin in October.

On March 31 to April 1, more than 600 people attended a business event at the Maritime Heritage Centre to meet with the main contractors to find out more about job opportunities.

According to BC Hydro spokesman Stephen Watson, SNC-Lavalin continues to work on a

labour agreement with the B.C. Building Trades that will include all local union and non-union subcontractors.

Once th is agree-ment is in place the general details will be announced.

“Subcontractors and individuals remain eager on the economic oppor-tunities,” Watson said in a news release.

“The union agreement needs to be in place before the formal sub-contractor bids and hir-ing may take place.”

but told several people he had assaulted Scow and didn’t think she would live.

Several people ran to Scow’s aid, but there was nothing they could do. Police and ambulance paramedics arr ived shortly later, and Scow was rushed to hospital in Port Hardy where she died before they could airlift her to Vancouver.

Johnny was found by RCMP at his father’s house. His shirt, jeans and shoes all had blood on them; some of it his, the rest was Scow’s according to DNA evi-dence.

He was arrested with-out incident and charged with aggravated assault. The charges were later changed to second degree murder after Scow died.

As he was being led away, Johnny twice asked the officer how much jail time he could expect.

“What do you think the years are going to be if you guys find out it was me? Probably like 28?” Johnny asked the officer, “...if you get a confession, how long am I going to be in for? I’m guessing a good 25 to 40 years, right?”

At the Port Hardy RCMP detachment , Johnny would later remark, “It’s like the first bad thing I ever did.”

Johnny was later released on bail and has continued living on the Tsulquate Reserve. Scow’s mother, Blanche Walkus, said it’s been difficult for her family to see Johnny “walk around free” and it was even harder to comprehend Monday’s verdict.

“It’s not what we

expected…every day I have to pass the house where he murdered her,” she said outside the courtroom, flanked by her husband Clyde and son Wes.

Cindy Scow was one of nine children and gave birth to seven of her own. The kids, ages three to 12, now live with their father.

“She really loved those kids,” recalled Walkus. “She did everything for them, especially on their birthdays, she went all out for them.”

Johnny remains free on bail with sentenc-ing pending. He will be the subject of a Gla-due Report, which will consider his aboriginal background prior to sen-tencing.

He is due back in court on Oct. 1 with sentencing expected to take place on Oct. 2.

MP John Duncan is ditching Campbell River and the North Island for the new riding of Cour-tenay-Alberni.

The long-time Con-s e r v a t i v e m e m b e r announced last Thursday he will give up the North Island to run in the new riding for the 2015 fed-eral election.

Election boundaries changed last year, much to Duncan’s displea-sure, lumping the North Island in with Comox and Powell River, while also splitting the Comox Valley.

“Choosing where to

run has been a diffi-cult decision for me,” Duncan said in a news release. “The splitting of

Vancouver Island North, as a result of the recent changes to the federal electoral boundaries, was unexpected and I have strong connections throughout both of the new ridings.”

Duncan, 65, currently has his riding office in Campbell River. He pre-viously lived in Ucluelet and Port Alberni during his 20-year career as a forester. In an interview with Global News, Dun-can said his decision to run again was motivated by the recent death of fellow Conservative MP Jim Flaherty.

“Jim was a great believer that public ser-vice is good…I know there’s other things I could do, but this mis-sion doesn’t feel com-plete yet,” he told Global.

Duncan was f irst elected from 1993-2006, then lost his seat to the NDP. He was re-elected in 2008. In Ottawa, Dun-can is Minister of State and Chief Government Whip

Laura Smith, Duncan’s adviser, will seek the Conservative nomina-tion for the Vancouver Island North-Comox-Powell River riding.

The temporary foreign worker program is unfair to Canadian and foreign workers.

This controversy has been an ongoing issue for more than two years. It reared its head again two weeks ago when three Victoria McDonald’s Restaurant locations had hired foreign workers in place of Canadians. Last week, Employment Minister Jason Kenney suspended the food industry’s access to

the program, pending a review, amid allegations of rule breaking.

It’s easy to suggest the federal government should

let free market forces of supply and demand address shortfalls in the labour market.

The only problem is Canada doesn’t have enough workers and the situation is only going to get worse without opening the doors to more immigrants.

At the moment, one in six Canadian employers is reporting “shortage of un/semi-skilled labour” as a major business problem; nearly a third are reporting “shortage of skilled labour.” Unemployment is near or below what is conventionally considered “zero” in every province west of Ontario (and that’s after the foreign workers have raised those unemployment rates a percentage point, as one recent study suggests).

The simplistic solution to the problem is to raise the minimum wage to encourage Canadians to line up and take those jobs, but that won’t wash well with business owners, nor will it help in the long term.

As Canadians age (watch out, the Baby Boomers are beginning to retire), workers and tax dollars will be needed more than ever to keep the country afloat.

Those who say “Canadian jobs are for Canadians” are right, but what if there aren’t enough Canadians to fill those jobs – or want jobs?

Immigration is the only answer.

Quarter century at the helm of the good ship MirrorThere’s nothing worse than some old

timer saying, “Wow, where did all the time go?”

But the good thing about being an old-timer is that you don’t have to care about what everybody thinks. So...

Wow, where did all the time go?Sometime next week – I believe it is

May 12 – I will have been editor of your publication for 25 years. I don’t know what to make of that. On paper, 25 years is a long time.

To a young(er) man, say, a 29-year-old man, 25 years would have seemed like an eternity. To a 54-year-old, 25 years didn’t seem to take all that long to go by.

I’ve seen a lot of changes in the way newspapers do things and I’ve seen peo-ple come and go through this office. I

myself am now sitting in the spot where I started lo, those 25 years ago. Since then, through various expansions and two or three renovations, my work space has moved all the way around the office to the other side and now I’m back again to the space where the editorial depart-ment was located in 1989.

The company had only moved into this building a couple of years before. The owner of the paper was Gerry Soroka, a feisty, former reporter and editor turned publisher. We were one of the last independents for a short while before being bought out by David Black’s publishing empire. Interestingly, David will be in Campbell River on Friday to address the Chamber of Commerce. What’s interesting about that, to me,

is that I know David. He’s no absentee owner. Over the years he’s dropped by the office a few times and he’s taken the staff out on his yacht a few times.

Since Gerry, the Mirror’s last owner-publisher, I’ve worked with three publishers (manager-publishers) Iain McClymont, Jim Hayes and Zena Wil-liams. I feel like I’ve got along with them all and we’ve worked hard together to put out the best newspaper we can. I’m now working with current publisher Dave Hamilton who joined us last year. He looks like a keeper, so far. It’s the first time I’ve worked with a boss who’s sig-nificantly younger than me, though.

The best part of it all is the great people who currently work here or have worked here over the years. One of the main rea-

sons I’ve stayed in this job is the great working atmosphere. The Mirror staff have almost universally been genuinely nice people. This is a group of employ-ees with a great sense of humour (above all) but with a dedication to putting out a professional product.

It’s not always like that in the news-paper business – or any business, I sup-pose. But it’s the people in this office that make coming to work a pleasure. I would hate to work in a place where conflict, distrust and animosity reigns.

When I consider why I’ve stayed here so long, I often come back to: I know this is a great place to work and I know how rare that can be out there in the great wide world.

But really, where did all the time go?

Walk: Helping assist heart patients

Dav i d B l a c k , owner of the Campbell River

Mirror’s parent company Black Press, will present to the Campbell River Chamber of Commerce his case for a $32 billion oil refinery in Kitimat, B.C.

This is an opportunity to learn about the poten-tial economic impact an oil refinery could have on British Columbians and Canadians. The project has the potential to develop 3,000 perma-nent direct jobs and gen-erate large new tax rev-enues for governments.

Black will address the Campbell River Cham-ber of Commerce on Friday, May 9 from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m in the Car-riage Room of the Royal

Coachman (84 Dogwood St.).

Black is opposed to the oil industry’s plan to export Alberta bitumen to Asia via tankers. The environmental threat is too great, Black says. The alternative is to build an oil refinery in Kitimat which will convert the bitumen to gasoline, die-sel and jet fuel.

“I am for creating thousands of good per-manent jobs in B.C. I am for creating billions of new tax dollars for government coffers,” Black recently wrote in a two-part opinion piece carried by this newspa-per. “I am for reducing the planet’s greenhouse gas emissions. I am for building an oil pipeline that will never leak. I am

for building a modern tanker fleet that carries only refined fuels that float and evaporate if spilled. I am against ship-ping bitumen in tankers.”

Learn the key environ-mental advantages of the Kitimat refinery that will cement Canada’s reputa-tion as a global leader in cleaner energy. There will also be an opportu-nity for Q & A at the end of Black’s presentation.

Go to www.camp-bel lr iverchamber.ca/events to learn more and purchase your tickets today. Tickets are $35 for Chamber members (plus GST) and $50 for non-members (plus GST). The price includes lunch, refreshments and dessert. Pre-registration is required for this event.

Black is the chairman and founder of Black Press Group, the owner of the Campbell River Mirror and the largest independently-owned newspaper company in Canada.

With more than 150 titles in print and online, Black Press has opera-tions in British Colum-bia, Alberta, Washing-ton, Hawaii, California and Ohio.

The company has 3,500 employees, and news-rooms with history dat-ing back to the 1800s.

Over the last 39 years he has led Black Press Group and went from having one small news-paper in 1975 to becom-ing the largest private newspaper publisher in Canada.

First quarter construction statis-tics for Campbell River show strong growth in new single-family home starts – up 14 per cent over the strong first quarter in 2013.

This represents 32 permits, com-pared to 14 permits each for Cour-tenay and Comox Valley Regional District.

“Growth in the land development market has continued as a result of a strong investment climate, modest development costs, changes to stream-line the City of Campbell River’s development application processes and the attractive quality of life in our community,” says Ross Blackwell, the

city’s land use services manager. “Mar-ket opportunity continues to be strong in both the residential and commer-cial sectors, and interest in local land development is expected to remain that way, particularly with new growth related to the construction of the new hospital.”

“This is more good news for Camp-bell River – and a reflection of how desirable our community is to live, work and do business,” says Ron Neufeld, deputy city manager. “The City continues to promote invest-ment in our community as we work to maintain our outstanding quality of life here.”

KRISTEN DOUGLASCAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Two Vancouver Island University geogra-phy classes have spent nearly half a year trying to come up with ways to improve Campbellton.

The University collab-orated with the Camp-bellton Neighbourhood Association – a group of area residents and busi-nesses owners working to improve that end of town – as well as with the city.

The students used an extensive amount of background and inventory information that the Campbellton Neighbourhood Asso-ciation dug up in 2012 and 2013.

What the students came up with are

improvements that can be put into three sec-tions: mobility, safety and security, and assets and liabilities.

Keltie Chamberlain, a geography student at VIU, said approximately 40 students visited and researched the area.

“We wanted to create an Action Plan that out-lines a realistic process for implementing mini-mal cost, along with

low, medium and high cost actions,” Cham-berlain told council at last week’s Tuesday city coundil meeting. “One that has proven to be quite popular is the naming project of back roads and alleyways. It improves signage and

makes navigation easier. The names could be of historical, geographic or current importance.”

Another option is healthy living routes which involve setting up markers that encour-age people to get up to the daily recommended 10,000 steps.

“It puts eyes on the street, it pulls people to the neighbourhood from other neighbour-hoods to follow the walking route,” said Pamela Shaw, a VIU geography instructor.

Traffic calming mea-sures such as curb extensions at intersec-tions and key crossing points are also recom-mended for Campbell-ton.

Shaw did, however, warn council that not everybody would be happy with slowing down traffic.

“It would not be without controversy,” she said. “I suspect not everyone is in support of calming traffic on main roads or having traffic slowed to, one of the suggestions was 30 kilometres an hour, which I say that know-ing that eyebrows are raised in the room.”

Other improvements included re-painting the crosswalks into unique configurations and put-ting in different shaped and brightly painted bike racks.

Chamberlain said the painted crosswalks are a new trend popping up around North America as a way of revitalizing

neighbourhoods.“The city is already

re-painting crosswalks, it would not be so diffi-cult to paint them into a different configuration,” Chamberlain said.

“It would give new life to the neighbourhood.”

Shaw said next steps involve putting some of the suggested improve-ments into action.

“What we’re trying to avoid is putting together an action plan that has a lot of great ideas and no follow-up,” Shaw said. “We intend to follow through on this proj-ect.”

That was welcome news to council.

“I’m very passion-

ate about Campbellton and a vision for that,” said Coun. Ron Kerr. “I’m looking forward to it continuing, not just ending with something that goes on the shelf but a continued rela-tionship with the uni-versity as we go ahead.”

Mayor Walter Jakeway said he felt the same.

“Thank you for choos-ing Campbell River,” the mayor said to Shaw and Chamberlain.

“We hope to see some of it put into action. I know the (Campbell-ton Neighbourhood) Association, some of the members are pretty set in their ways so they won’t let it not happen.”

The city is considering building a seniors centre as either an addition to the Community Centre or as a stand-alone build-ing on the same property.

Coun. Larry Samson urged council at its April 29 meeting to help the seniors who have been bounced around between several locations since 2009.

The seniors’ centre currently operates at the Sportsplex for part of the week and at the Commu-nity Centre the remaining days.

“What we have now is not sustainable,” Sam-son said. “I think for me the Community Centre is something we have to closely look at. I think to me it’s a natural fit.”

The Community Cen-tre already hosts the city’s 50+ Active Living pro-gram plus it is the centre of public transit.

Coun. Claire Moglove said the Community Centre is the perfect fit because it’s a place

where youth and seniors both meet. Moglove said she learned through a workshop at the recent Association of Vancou-ver Island Coastal Com-munities convention that a healthy community is one that promotes inter-generational relation-ships between young people and seniors.

“Having the seniors at the Community Centre is hugely important and much preferable in my opinion than having a stand-alone building,” Moglove said. “I think that having the seniors’ centre or an expanded

space at the Community Centre for seniors is the absolute number one concept.”

But councillors Ron Kerr and Andy Adams wanted city staff to look at other potential loca-tions.

Kerr suggested city staff look at using the city-owned lot across from the Community Centre on Cedar Street.

“We have land on the other side of the street which is close enough and it has the parking there,” Kerr said. “My concern with the Com-munity Centre property

is you’re going to elimi-nate an awful lot of park-ing there.”

Adams said only con-sidering the Community Centre was too limiting.

“I think we’re all on the same page that the desired objective is to have a stand-alone Seniors’ Centre in the downtown core,” Adams said. “I wouldn’t want to restrict as to what that may look like or how we get there.”

Samson responded that looking at other options has gotten the city nowhere.

“That’s what we’ve been doing for two years and we’ve gotten nowhere,” Samson said. “I’m saying it’s time to look at some-thing that’s concrete. Let’s get on with it. Let’s not keep looking for some-thing that’s down the road.”

Council in the end agreed and voted to have staff bring back a report on the feasibility of building a seniors’ centre either within the Community Centre or on the same property.

PAUL RUDANCAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

It wasn’t enough to get the man behind Musicfest on the

Tidemark Theatre board of directors.

Nope. They always want more when they

find out you’re a musi-cian.

But that’s okay with Doug Cox, the long-standing artistic director and executive producer of the super-popular Comox Valley Musicfest.

“Campbell River is just an extension of our audience,” says Cox during a recent phone interview.

Cox is now on the board of directors for the Tidemark Theatre Society and his involve-ment is already benefit-ing the pink downtown

landmark.On May 22, Cox and

musical director Dan-iel Lapp – formerly of Spirit of the West – are bringing their buddies, a who’s who of Victoria musical talent, to the Tidemark Stage in a show called “Back to the Garden.”

“I’m really excited about our partnership with the Tidemark and this upcoming show,” says Cox. “It’s going to be a real variety of music.”

Lapp is the musical director for this roots music collaboration featuring a “West Coast bouillabaisse” of per-formers with the likes of Mae Moore, 54-40 frontman Neil Osborne, fiddler Ivonne Hernan-dez and more.

“Daniel is getting everyone to submit songs. We have a band and a bunch of front people,” Cox says. “I looking forward to play-ing with Rick May who’s played bass for Michael Jackson, Devo and Rikie Lee Jones.”

Anything could hap-pen on stage that night, adds Cox who describes the West Coast sound as, “a melting pot for roots, folk, blues, swing, indie, honky tonk and alt-country.”

Here’s the full lineup of performers:■ Adam Dobres (gui-

tars/houseband)■ Carolyn Mark

(voice, guitar)■ Daniel Lapp (fiddle,

horn, voice, mandolin, piano/houseband)■ Danuel Tate (key-

boards/houseband)■ Doug Cox (slide

guitar/dobro etc.)■ Ivonne Hernandez

(fiddle)■ Jamie Troy (drums/

houseband, bagpipes)■ Mae Moore (voice,

guitar)■ Neil Osborne

(voice, guitar)■ Oliver Swain (banjo,

bass, voice)■ Rick May (bass/

houseband)

❍ Tickets to Back to the Garden are $32 available at the Tide-mark box office or by calling 250-287-7465.❍ Doors open at 7

p.m. on Thursday, May 22, with the show start-ing at 8 p.m. This is a licensed event and all patrons must be 19 and older.

Families with newborn babies in Campbell River and North Vancouver Island will get an extra level of care thanks to support from Variety - The Children’s Charity.

The charity recently provided the Campbell River Hospital Foun-dation with funding to purchase a Neona-tal Jaundice Meter and Fetal Monitor for the maternity department at Campbell River Hospital.

“On average, there are 400 babies born in the Campbell River Hospital and with 566 newborn

patient days annually,” says Stacey Marsh, Hos-pital Foundation execu-tive director. “We are proud to work with a partner like Variety - The Children’s Charity. Their help makes an enormous difference to Campbell River and North Vancou-ver Island.”

Jaundice is seen in 30 to 60 per cent of full-term newborns and in nearly all premature infants, and occurs when a baby develops high levels of bilirubin, a byproduct of the normal breakdown of red blood cells.

A jaundice meter shines a light on the baby’s skin to measure yellowish skin tones and is capable of replacing visual checks, which are not always accurate.

A Fetal Monitor is used to monitor the baby in uteri as well as during labour, this allows staff to know if labour is pro-gressing normally and if there are any complica-tions and if the baby is in distress.

Because the staff is able to observe with the mon-itor, they can prepare in a calm organized manner

rather than react in the event a crisis does occur.

“Many families tell us that having a newborn baby can be both a joy-ful but also stressful experience,” says Ber-nice Scholten, executive director of Variety - The Children’s Charity.

“By providing fund-ing for the hospital’s new equipment, we’re standing with the health care team, helping them to deliver the best care possible to their tiniest patients, and alleviating some of the concern for the parents.”

Variety helps make delivering babies easier

Debbie Arkwright (left), clinical coordinator for the Campbell River Hospital maternity department holds a brand-new Neonatal Jaundice Meter, purchased by the Hospital Foundation, represented by Stacey Marsh (right), the executive director. The purchase was made possible by a donation from Variety – The Children’s Charity.

Two sets of Campbell River Killer Whales sib-lings were the stars of the 2014 UVPCS Wave-maker Swim Meet in Victoria last weekend.

It was a successful competition for all Killer Whales swimmers, setting everyone up for what should be a very exciting end to the season as championship meet season starts.

But Jasmine Skuse and Conner Skuse dominated their age groups, with Cianna Dunn and Carson Dunn having breakthrough meets in their respec-tive age groups.

Conner won every event he was entered in, breaking multiple meet records over the three-day meet. Jasmine achieved an age group national (AGN) qualification standard in the 200 IM, add-ing to the four that she has already achieved this year, as well as breaking the 200 IM and 400 IM club record.

Carson continued to show huge improvements this season dominating the 10 and under boys category. Carson broke three club records over

and welcome addition to the schedule.

The Hurricanes came out on fire in game 1, facing the Powell River Pitbulls white team. A great display of team-work resulted in a final score of 12-1, with scor-ing spread amongst mul-tiple players: Kiera – 4 goals, Chloe – 2 goals, 1 assist, Austin, Kessler & Cassidy– 1 goal, 1 assist each, Sasha, Delaney & Morgan, 1 goal each, and an assist for Mikyla. MVP of the game was awarded to Chloe and

the Digger award to Morgan.

In game 2 the Hur-ricanes faced their arch nemesis, the Oceanside Icebreakers but were not to be stopped. With a final score of 12-2, the Hurricanes again came out as a team and spread around the scoring: Cas-sidy & Kiera – 4 goals each, Kessler – 1 goal, 2 assists, and a goal each for Morgan, Chloe and Austin. MVP of game

2 went to Cassidy, with the A/P player from the Novice Hurricanes, Kiana winning the Dig-ger award.

Game 3 was an early Sunday game and the Hurricanes came out slower, but proved once again they were deter-mined, with goalie Kam-byl achieving a well-earned shut-out in a 9-0 final score against the Powell River PItbulls red team. Again multiple

girls contributed to the scoring: Kiera – 3 goals, Kessler – 2 goals, Austin & Chloe – 1 goal each, and an assist each from Morgan and Kaelin. MVP of the game was awarded to Kiera and the Digger to Sasha.

The 1-2 final game saw the Hurricanes facing a very hungry Powell River Pitbulls white team, who came out blazing.

With the heat turned up, the Hurricanes fol-lowed their Captain Kiera’s lead and turned on the jets as she and Alternate Captain Chloe dominated the score-board to a 5-1 final to sweep the tournament, with Kiera scoring 4 goals and Chloe 1 goal and 1 assist. MVP of the final game went to Del-aney and the Digger to Austin.

the weekend in the 800 freestyle, and 100 and 200 breaststroke, as well as a multiple meet records as well. He also achieved AAA provincial qualifying times in every event he swam over the weekend.

Cianna had a great weekend in a very tough 13 and 14 year old cat-egory. Cianna achieved the first of three AGN qualifying standards needed to attend the AGN champi-onships this summer in Winnipeg. She followed up a great 1500 freestyle with swims that were very close to the standard in the 200 butterfly, 400 IM, and 100 backstroke.

Other great swims came from

Sydney Boyle (AGN 1500 freestyle); Jenna Beaudin (AGN 1500 freestyle); Mackenzie Padington (club records in 200 IM, 200 backstroke, 200 freestyle, and 400 freestyle); Melayna Beaudin (club records in 100/200/1500 free-style, 50/100/200 backstroke); Valery Williams (1st AA provincial qualify-ing time in 50 freestyle); Cole Reid (AA times in 400 freestyle and 200 backstroke); and Kara Beauregard (AA provincial qualifying times in 800 freestyle and 200 backstroke).

Next up for the Killer Whales is the ISA LC Medley Challenge on May 10 and 11, followed by the VIR Champi-onships coming up at the beginning of June.

Your home is your shelter and so much more: Not only is it very likely the largest purchase you will ever make, it’s the comforting and comfortable centre of family life and your family’s future -- and you need to protect it. The lender’s mortgage insurance is easy protection – a simple add-on to your mortgage – but lender’s insurance may not be the best way to shelter your shelter. The personal insurance option could be a better fi t for you.

1. You own the policy and designate the benefi ciaryWith mortgage insurance, the lender is the owner and benefi ciary and is entitled to receive the full death benefi t. There are no amounts that would be paid to your family.

2. Your coverage will not decreaseYour personal insurance coverage remains level as your mortgage decreases. With mortgage insurance,

you are covered only for the declining balance while continuing to pay the same, or perhaps higher, premiums.

3. Your personal insurance continues after the mortgage is paidWith mortgage insurance, the coverage expires when the mortgage is paid off.

4. Only you can cancel or make changesYour premiums are guaranteed for the life of the plan and you can make changes as your needs change. On the other hand, the lender may change the premium or cancel a mortgage insurance policy at any time.

5. Your coverage stays with you if you movePersonal insurance is portable but in most instances, you may not be able to transfer mortgage insurance to a new mortgage or new lender and need to re-qualify for new coverage.

6. Your coverage is confi rmed when you applyMortgage insurance may assess your eligibility only when you make a claim, leaving you unsure of your coverage. With personal insurance, your medical history is reviewed before the policy is issued – you’re assured that coverage will be in place when you need it.

Insurance is an important component of your overall fi nancial plan and like your fi nancial plan, the insurance you choose should be a perfect fi t for your unique needs. Discuss your options with your professional advisor to ensure your plan provides the right protection for you and yours.

Frank LennardTerry

The tide recedes, but leaves behind bright seashells in the sand. The sun goes down, but gentle warmth still lingers on the land. The music stops, and yet it echoes on in sweet refrain. For every joy that passes, something beautiful remains.It is with sad hearts the family of Frank Lennard Terry share his passing on April 30, 2014.

Frank had a kind gentle soul, a great work ethic, a fierce love of family, and a very rigid time schedule.

Frank was born in Vancouver on December 23, 1939, to Harold and Frances Terry. Frank completed his education in Vancouver and his storied working history began on the boats that served the BC Coast.

Frank married Judy Higgins in 1962 and they had two children; a son Lorne and a daughter Lisa. Frank lost Judy to cancer in 1994.

Frank met Karen in 2001, they married in 2003, and became a blended family of one daughter, three sons, two granddaughters, and three grandsons.

Frank leaves his son Lorne, daughter Lisa (Rod), granddaughters Katie and Madison. He also leaves his wife Karen; her sons Hugh (Marnie) Gurney and grandsons Austin and Robert and son Scott (Amy) Gurney and new grandson Carson; brother-in-law and sister-in-law Stu and Kathy Morrison; brother-in-law Bill Higgins; sister-in-law Merry Meredith, and sister-in-law Florence Terry.

Frank was a true “gentle” man, and loyal friend. His passing has left an empty space in all our hearts.

There will be no service at Frank’s request. A private family service followed by a burial are his wishes.

Frank’s family extends an invitation to friends to attend an Open House celebrating Frank’s life, Saturday, May 10 from 1 - 4pm at his home on 651 Nelson Road, Campbell River. Please come and tell us your stories and memories of Frank. We would love to see you.

Remember to hug your loved ones often, and always tell them you love them. You never know when that opportunity will be taken from you. We know deep in our hearts that when Frank left this world, he was a happy soul. He left it doing something he enjoyed and loved. He was riding his bike on a sunny day knowing he was loved by his family and friends, and he was content.

Have a great journey darlin . . . we will all catch up with you later.

Condolences can be left at www.campbellriverfunerals.com

With sadness we announce the passing of Mabel Hawkins (nee Duggan). Mabel was born in Kamloops, BC. She worked as a secretary and accountant in Kelowna, Ottawa, Victoria and The Hague prior to her marriage to Derrick in 1957. After Derrick’s death in 2012, Mabel moved to Quadra Island to live with her son Philip and his family.

In May of 2013 Mabel moved into Evergreen Seniors Home. Mabel loved her family, her garden, the mountains, the sea and good books. She had a love of learning and adventure, and a deep compassion for others. We would like to express our sincere appreciation to the staff at Evergreen who cared so deeply for Mabel. Their compassion and gentleness was beyond what we could have ever hoped for. We would also like to thank Dr. Keith Graham for his attentiveness and care.

Mabel is survived by her daughter, Barbara, son Philip and their families. We will miss her greatly.

The sounds of hammers bang-ing was punctu-

ated by the squelching of rubber boots on Friday.

The action was com-ing from the muddy shoreline of Baikie Island Nature Reserve where a group of vol-unteers were building a goose fence enclosure. It’s actually called an “exclosure” because it creates a section of the foreshore where Canada geese can’t get into and will serve as a control section so biologists can see how much damage the geese are doing to vegetation along the shore.

“Today we’re working on an exclosure which is basically a fenced area where we can keep Canada geese out,” said Cynthia Bendickson, a biologist and volunteer on the project, “and the reason we want to do this is because there’s been a lot of concern raised lately about the amount of Canada geese who are in the estuary, particularly in the sum-mer months.”

The geese are an intro-duced species being bred and released on the coast in the 1970s and 1980s to create a game animal to be hunted. The breeding program worked “almost too well,” Bendickson said, because they’ve become a nuisance, particularly in large urban areas of Vancouver and Victoria in parks, agricultural areas and airports. They’re not a problem to that extent in Campbell River yet.

“But we’re worried it might get there,” she

said. A group of volun-teers loosely associated with the Campbell River Environmental Coun-cil decided to test the impact goose grazing is having on the estuary.

“We’ve definitely seen them eating sedges down here which is

partly what this exclo-sure is set up to measure but I have also seen them eating eel grass,” Bendickson said.

The sedges are, of course, important to salmon rearing and the health of the estuary. The rotting vegetation

feeds insects that, in turn, feed salmon com-ing up the river.

Bendickson has been doing informal weekly counts of geese since last year and she has seen approximately 1,000 geese at times in the estuary.

“And that’s a huge amount of geese for such a small estuary,” she said.

The exclosure is being built in such a way that it won’t trap fish or any other animals but there will be a sign on it that includes a phone num-

ber for the public to call should they see anything trapped inside.

All the work is being done by volunteers and the fencing has been bought with a $500 grant from Fisheries and Oceans Canada as well as contributions from

groups down-Island doing similar tests.

Coastal Community Credit Union says it has addressed concerns surrounding recently

announced branch clo-sures while local gov-ernment says the credit union has given them “nothing.”

Cortes Island regional district director Noba

Anderson said the credit union never consulted its members prior to its decision to close the branch July 5.

Anderson and local government representa-

tives from Alert Bay and Sointula – communities which also stand to lose their credit unions – have also been refused any financial proof that the branches are struggling.

But Adrian Legin, pres-ident and CEO of Coastal C om mu n it y C re d i t Union, disagrees and said the issues brought forward by Anderson, Alert Bay mayor Michael

Berry and Sointula direc-tor Heidi Soltau have been dealt with.

“We believe we have addressed the areas of concern you raise in your letter,” Legin wrote in a

letter to Anderson, Berry and Soltau. “We would like to re-emphasize that we certainly appreciate that the affected com-munities are concerned about the decisions that were made, and that peo-ple will need to change some ways they currently do their banking.”

Legin said that although the branches will no lon-ger have a physical pres-ence in the three commu-nities, some services will still be available.

“Although our current branch infrastructure will no longer be avail-able, our employee teams in these communities are committed to helping members through this transition, and to assist those who may not be aware of alternate service options including online, mobile and telephone banking, video experts, as well as new service options that we’ll soon introduce like Deposit Anywhere,” Legin wrote.

Legin noted that the credit union will also work “to determine pos-sible uses for our build-ings in these communi-ties. As we work through this process we will be using local and regional resources and will keep you informed of our progress.”

Such communication with members is some-thing that Anderson said did not happen when the decision was made to close the branch.

“It’s the indecency of a member-based, member-owned institution mak-ing a decision without engaging its membership that I find so abomi-nable,” Anderson told the Mirror last week. “A credit union should put its members above profit. If it was a private business and they closed down, so be it.

“They have given us nothing,” Anderson added. “No numbers, no analysis, no basis for calculations, no redacted staff reports, no rationale for lack of consultation – nothing.”

At last Thursday’s Strathcona Regional District board meeting, directors voted to write a letter to the credit union to express their concern with the organization’s decision to pull its Cor-tes Island branch without member consultation.

Legin said the decision was made to close the three branches because they have not been financially viable and the level to which they were being subsidized is not sustainable.
