Community agrees to work together for solutions in wake of grizzly shootingBY CAITLIN THOMPSON

A grizzly bear shot down-town last week has once again brought the issue of human-wildlife conflicts to the fore-front.

This year many residents have reported a spike in bear activity, especially in the town-site, with numerous bears being sighted in broad daylight strolling the streets and raiding fish tubs, fruit trees and berry bushes.

Last week a grizzly was shot along the Bella Coola River at approximately 10:30 in the eve-ning. The shooters were unable to determine if they had killed or wounded the bear as the shots were fired in the dark and from a considerable distance. People were on edge as it was unsure whether or not the bear had survived.

At first light the next morn-ing a coalition of respond-ers including the Nuxalk Guardians, the RCMP, and BC Parks took to the river and found a second grizzly eating the carcass of the shot bear.

Later conversations with the Conservation Officer Service,

the Nuxalk Nation, and the RCMP agreed that targeting a bear in darkness was not safe and could have resulted in a wounded, and therefore more dangerous, animal.

Many people treasure the presence of bears in the Valley, but that relationship is compli-cated as many people are also fearful of them. However, using firearms to deal with bears comes with its own set of risks.

“I believe the community is fearful of both grizzlies walking the streets and people running around with firearms shooting at night. Shooting at night is always a concern for obvious reasons,” said Conservation Officer Len Butler. “Under pro-vincial legislation it is unlawful to discharge a firearm at wild-life at night except in problem wildlife situations where a human safety factor is consid-ered.”

The Nuxalk Nation has also expressed regret over the shoot-ing, saying it was unfortunate. “The shooting of the bear was an unfortunate incident which we should learn from as a community,” said Stewardship Director Megan Moody. “From

here on, the Nation wants to move forward and work with community members, the Conservation Officers and the RCMP to come forward with solutions.”

Solutions were the focus of a joint meeting last Thursday night which included numer-ous community members and agencies involved in dealing with wildlife. Several options were discussed to try and alle-viate a number of problems.

“The community and all the players involved made the first step working together last Thursday night. The Nuxalk Nation, COS, RCMP, BC Parks and WildSafeBC sorted out differences and hopefully will work together to make entire community safer and deter grizzly bears from using the current corridors through town,” said Butler. “We have come up with some solutions to attempt to prevent human bear conflicts.”

The following morning the alleyways, backyards and roads were being brushed out and opened up. The electric fence program was discussed, as was the possibility of bear

hazing training for the Nuxalk Guardians and fish contain-ment for the daily catch.

“Removing the attractants is the answer but change is diffi-cult,” said Butler.

Chief Councilor Wally Webber expressed his frustra-tion at the lack of a full-time CO in the Valley, and Butler responded that the community 'unfortunately has not put forth a good enough argument or maintained enough effort.'

However, the COS has entered an agreement with BC Parks to provide CO training to a Park Ranger in the Valley to help alleviate some of the pres-sure.

While there is no question Nuxalkmc people have lived next to bears for thousands of years, some residents feel unnerved by the proximity of the animals and are worried for their safety and the safety of their children. However it's how the bear behaves towards people, not necessarily how close it is, that determines whether or not the COS will remove it.

“Given the current situation with the bears natural feeding

and the discussions with the community, the Nuxalk Nation the COS have decided not to remove any more bears at this time,” said Butler. “Although they are close by, they are not exhibiting aggressive behav-iour.”

The COS did utilize other tactics such as rubber bullets to discourage the animals from residential areas, but without a full-time officer follow-through is difficult and the bears tend to return quickly.

Melody Schooner, whose property at the end of Top Street has been a hub of bear activity, is hopeful the solutions will be enough.

Schooner said she doesn't mind the bears nearby feeding in the creeks, but she can’t han-dle them bedding down near her backyard. “I’m nervous for the kids just going to the bus stop in the morning, I don't want that bear to hurt anyone,” she said.

With the help of the Nuxalk Bear Safety Project, Schooner has removed fruit trees, berry bushes, and fenced her salm-on.

She smokes and cans fish all summer and fall, and her fam-ily depends on that food. This summer's close encounters have left her too anxious to do anymore. “I'm still feeling scared,” she said. “I'd like to smoke more fish but with that bear around I'm not going to chance it.”

Community leader Clyde Tallio sug-gested community initiatives to pick the fruit and establish a protocol around deal-ing with bears that overstep residents’ comforts zones. “The whole community, from townsite to up Valley, needs to come together and com-bine our collective knowledge, stories

and ideologies,” said Tallio. “Traditional knowledge tells us we weren't taught to be afraid of bears, so we need to reassess our values and what our young people will inherit and come up with a solution that will help us to return to coexisting with our environment.”

There are thought to be several other factors influencing the bears behav-iour, and this is also something the Nation wants to understand. The Nuxalk Bear Study is hoping to answer some of those questions. “We are continuing to reduce any attractants in the community, but there are factors affecting the bears that we do not yet fully under-

stand,” said Moody. “Through our Nuxalk Bear (DNA) Study we hope to learn more about their move-ments, population numbers and how salmon numbers are affecting them. We need to adapt our behaviour and try to understand what is changing theirs if we want to have them around in the future. We are not going any-where and neither are they.”

Hereditary Chief Deric Snow, who also attended the meeting last week, echoed that need for understand-ing. He also called for more face-to-face meetings among community members, saying that the use of social media sites like Facebook is not the

best way to commu-nicate on such emo-tional issues.

“The bear is a part of us, it's our crest and a smayusta, but we are also born with a bear spirit inside,” Snow said. “I under-stand there's a safety issue but I would like to see the bears kept alive. If there's any way to do that, I would like our people to go that way.”

If a resident is concerned about a bear, they are urged to call the CO Hotline at 1-877-952-7277, the Band Office at 250 799 5633, WildSafe BC at 250-982-2298 or the RCMP at 250 799 5363. Electric fencing can be obtained on loan from the Nuxalk Bear Safety Project and WildSafe BC.

Two major grants are up for grabs for First Nations art-ists and filmmakers. The first is YVR's Masterpiece Study Program Grant, which awards up to $2,500 to cover the cost of travel, accommodation and meals for their travel/study opportunity.

Well-known Nuxalk carver Latham Mack and language expert Clyde Tallio have both been successful recipi-ents of grants from the YVR Art Foundation, receiving scholar-ships for their artistic achievements and cul-tural contributions.

The grant requires that the applicant be an artist or small group of artists of BC First Nations ances-try, live in BC, be a practicing artist, and wish to further their art practice through research and study of BC First Nations art work currently held in the collection of one of the Foundation’s partner museums. Go to www.yvraf.com to apply. The deadline is October 3.

There is another exciting opportunity

for aspiring aboriginal filmmakers.

The Whistler Film Festival is encourag-ing First Nations film-makers to apply for its Aboriginal Filmmaker Fellowship, a creative and business immer-sion experience to be held in Whistler from December 5 to 6, 2014.

Designed to advance Canadian Aboriginal creative talent, this program focuses on strength-ening short script projects by facilitating feedback by a group of mentors who are suc-cessful, well-respected Aboriginal members of the Canadian film community.

Up to 4 Aboriginal filmmakers from British Columbia will be invited to par-ticipate in the 2014 Aboriginal Filmmaker Fellowship.

Filmmakers will receive individual and project specific feed-back through a series of one-on-one ses-sions with Mentors, as well as a group session in order to strengthen their project.

Feedback will include everything

from where to take their script, to what changes the project may require in order to move it to the next level.

Filmmakers will also explore their own creative take on their project and develop skills and a process for evaluating, develop-ing, and implement-ing their material to

reflect these ideas. Participants will also have access to the full day ShortWork Lab on December 6th, which includes panel discus-sions on the world of short filmmaking, the MPPIA Short Film Pitch and the ShortWork Showcase screening and recep-tion.

Applicants must

have some previous short film experience or have attended film school, be able to commit to attend-ing the program from December 5 to 6, 2014, and must be a Canadian citizen and of Aboriginal decent residing in BC.

As a cost-cutting measure, this sum-mer’s “Nimpkish Solution” has failed dismally. But, as an unintended “experi-ment” it has per-formed brilliantly: This is the view of anyone concerned with the changes to the Bella Coola – Port Hardy ferry service.

This summer, the BC government replaced the 115-car MV Queen of Chilliwack, sailing directly between Bella Coola and Port Hardy as the marine link in the Discovery Coast Circle Tour, with the 16-car MV Nimpkish, connecting with the Prince Rupert ferry route at Bella Bella.

On a questionnaire conducted by Bella Coola Valley Tourism (BCVT), travelers over-whelmingly torpedoed the government and BC Ferries for the deci-sion to deploy the old-est, smallest, and slow-est vessel in the entire BC Ferries fleet on the third longest route. The move would save the ferry corpora-tion $725,000 that it claimed was the net cost of operating the service with the larger Chilliwack. Critics of the cut say that service might have generated a profit if it had been properly managed.

The ferry corpo-ration’s “Nimpkish Solution” has back-fired resoundingly: Many travelers already booked on the Circle Tour found there was no room on the tiny vessel and had to change their plans drastically, flying out or retracing their drive back down Vancouver Island or back across the Chilcotin.

Those who did squeeze onto the ves-sel soon discovered they were cramped for nine hours on a boat with uncomfortably low bus-bench seating, little space to stretch their legs, one difficult-to-access washroom at the bottom of the steep, narrow stair-way to the car deck, constant shuddering and engine noise, and the minimal, compli-mentary, food service.

Many expressed safety concerns.

On the question-naire, many said their “Nimpkish Experience” was redeemed only by the spectacular scenery, the favourable weather, and the efforts of the vessel’s crew who did their best in an embar-rassing situation. Many travelers decried the damage being done to the tourism industry and the effect this would have on the obviously struggling economy here.

The BCVT ques-tionnaire data are being analysed by two professional research firms. The traveler comments are available on-line by contacting [email protected].

In other develop-ments related to the failed “Nimpkish Solution”, the industry has identified a group to work with govern-ment and BC Ferries to recommend alterna-tives to the “Nimpkish Solution” in time to salvage part of the 2015 tourist season. There are recent indications that Tourism Minister Naomi Yamamoto might reconsider her decision not to form the “working group” she promised last spring but decided not to create because of regional “hostility”.

Responding to industry concerns, Transportation Minister Todd Stone directed $100,000 for marketing the region in 2014. None of this

money was used to promote the Circle Tour because the agency that spent the funds did not deem the Nimpkish marine link “export ready”.

Last month, Minister Stone reviewed in glowing terms his personal experience on the August 6 Nimpkish cruise he took with his family to Bella Coola. He was visibly dis-mayed upon learning of traveler complaints. (The new seating and free food services on the vessel - scorned by many passengers responding to the BCVT questionnaire - had been installed at

his direction.)Stone has said his

“Nimpkish Solution” to BC Ferries’ financial woes can work if BC Ferries improves the vessel further and if the Nimpkish marine link in the Circle Tour can be better marketed. He blames the industry for driving travelers away with their criticism. He recognizes that the tiny boat was full to capacity most of the summer.

Industry experts point out that European travel agen-cies require many months for bookings and two or three years of reliable fare and scheduling informa-

tion. The “Nimpkish Solution” failed in 2014 and threatens the 2015 season. Experts say November 15 is the latest date for such information to be dis-tributed in Europe in

order to salvage even a small part of the 2015 season.

For many months, critics have repeat-edly described the “Nimpkish Solution” as “ill advised, poorly

timed, short-sighted, and badly managed”. Last November, West Chilcotin Tourism Association President Bill Van Es told a gov-ernment/BC Ferries panel: “You have come up with a way to save so much money, and it’s up to us to prove you wrong.”

Visitors to the region have done just that: They have blown the “Nimpkish Solution” out of the water by providing hard, irrefutable, evidence that the “Solution” is a band-aid - poorly applied by the government to a serious BC Ferries wound.

If the “Nimpkish Solution” has been an unintended experi-ment, BC’s decision makers now have undeniable results to act upon.

Note: Ministers Stone and Yamamoto have received the 36 pages of passenger complaints about their Nimpkish Experiences and were invited to respond, but had not done so by press time.

Following in the footsteps of his father, Brian Bonn has created a brand new sign for the Bella Coola Airport. The late Willi Bonn cre-ated the previous Welcome sign that was destroyed last December when a freak windstorm hit the airport.

The sign was built using locally sourced materials from his acreage, with the excep-tion of the letter-ing, which is a reclaimed metallic slate. The cedar slabs were power saw milled from a cedar felled several decades ago. The lettering

and other graph-ics were hand cut using a four-inch angle grinder with a high quality dia-mond blade.

“I wanted to use materials that would endure our moist climate while keeping the maintenance to a minimum,” said Bonn. “The entire project took a couple of weeks to complete and was an enjoyable endeavor. The staff at the airport say the tourists are once again taking their pic-tures next to the Welcome sign, with big smiles, which was the ultimate goal.”

Local craftsman carries on father's traditionVisitors to the

Valley are welcomed by this

beautiful new sign

Nuxalk Nation takes part in historic paddle to Qatuwas Festival in Bella BellaBy eVanGeline hanUse

On the morning of July 9, 2014, four canoes began their journey from Bella Coola to par-take in the annual Tribal Canoe Journeys. Hosted this year by the Heiltsuk Nation of Bella Bella, it is estimated that there will be 100 canoes attending the Qatuwas Festival and 5,000 visitors going to Bella Bella for seven days of celebrating, feast-ing, and dancing.Tribal Journeys, also referred

to as Qatuwas, or ‘People Gathering Together,’ is planning to return to Bella Bella this year, 21 years after its first gathering was held in 1993. The Heiltsuk have played a key role in the resurgence of the ocean going canoe culture along the Pacific North West Coast when they first carved a canoe and paddled from Bella Bella to Vancouver for Expo 86, in 1986 and in 1989 participated in the “Paddle to Seattle”, and at this event invited other tribes to travel to

Bella Bella and hosted the 1993 Qatuwas Festival.Members of the Squamish Nation and their fellow paddlers from Hawaii towed two canoes from Vancouver, BC and were welcomed into Bella Coola by the Nuxalk Nation with a pot-luck at the Bella Coola Motel Campground. Together, they journeyed for three days with the help of support vessels, arriving in Bella Bella last weekend. Luke Mack, a skipper, who has been on several canoe

journeys, was cautious when speaking of facing the notori-ous Mesachie Nose, famous for its swirling currents and strong winds. “If the winds pick up we may have to be towed,” said Mack. To many, this canoe journey is seen as a healing opportu-nity for all involved. Cultural traditions and knowledge are being revived as traditionally Nuxalkmc were skilled naviga-tors on the water, using the ocean as a highway for trade and

attending ceremonies all across the Coast, even traveling as far as the Hawaiian Islands. Hereditary Chief Q’umulha Rhonda Sandoval is excited to partake in the experience of a lifetime with her husband, Will, and daughter Anuxum. A former commercial fisher and experi-enced diver, Sandoval is right at home on the water and is hop-ing this journey will keep the momentum going and revive the Nuxalkmc canoe culture
