Th e Alzheimer’s Society of B.C. offi cially introduced its new Surrey Resource Centre and its one-of-a-kind First Link framework model to the local community.

Th e Resource Centre is part of Th e Alzheimer’s So-ciety’s massive expansion plans that will provide an extensive range of services to the South and East Fraser

region; this includes, Delta, White Rock, Surrey, Clo-verdale, Langley, Abbots-ford, Mission, Chilliwack and Hope.

Th e First Link program is an innovative service that connects individuals suff er-ing from dementia, as well as their friends and family to the Society for further in-formation provision, so the opportunity to exercise the basic human need for a bet-

ter life is met to its fullest.“First Link provides early

access to on-going, reliable support services and edu-cation essential for people to live well with dementia,” said Maria Howard's, CEO of the Alzheimer’ Society of B.C. in a press release statement. “Th e new Sur-rey regional Resource Cen-tre will enable us to deliver First Link support services more eff ectively to places

like Hope.”Th e announcement by the

Ministry of Health in No-vember 2014, solidifi ed its commitment to a $ 4 million grant to the expansion of the First Link program and the Surrey Resource Centre.

Existing services were successfully built-on as a re-sult of the funding.

“Th e more people that understand Alzheimer’s dis-ease and other dementias,

the better prepared they areto manage it at all stages ofthe disease,” said Howard.“We’re very happy to bringFirst Link to the South andEast Fraser region and willprovide ongoing connec-tion, information and touchpoints throughout the jour-ney for individuals with de-mentia and their family andfriends.

The innovative new service created for Alzheimer’s patients

First Link offers lifelineNews

Th e First Link pro-gram off ers a lifeline and support system to help families and patients navigate the tricky face of Alzheimer’s.

“It teaches them how to plan ahead and is an easy way to connect to diff er-ent programs like Minds and Motion (a program dedicated to fi tness and cognitive coping skills) on a personal level.

Th e program also pro-vides a bridge to neces-sary health care resourc-es,” said Kathy Kennedy, director of programs and services at the Society.

Currently there are 70,000 individuals di-agnosed with Alzheimer's and 10,000 of those suffer from ear-ly onset of the disease, accord-ing to Kennedy on the statistics of the disease

“Th e aging demographic is increasing because of the baby boomers and there is still no cure — we provide information options for coping mechanisms, resources for fi nancial planning and health care to help families

express angst and guilt,” she said.First Link is also instrumen-

tal in helping patients fi nd the means to deal with depression, resulting from diagnosis and aims to help them maintain a good quality of life, while con-tinuing to stay engaged and in-teractive with friends, family, and the community.

Th ere are fi tness and social partnerships, where patients can be matched up with others deal-

ing with the disease, allowingthem to have an environmentwhere they feel safe and securewithin the confi nes of the illness.

“Participants have a sense ofbeing alive and of having a safeplace to talk — the disease isprogressive and degenerativeand people need an increasinglevel of support, as the adult dayprograms eventually trickle intolong-term care programs,” Ken-nedy told Th e Hope Standard.

“Th is is an important project for Boston Barand area residents,” Chilliwack-Hope MLA LaurieTh roness said. “It will result in a smoother drivingsurface, less dust, and a higher level of safety foreveryone who uses the highway.”

Th e project is part of the government’s new ini-tiative B.C. on the Move, which is a 10-year plandedicated to the improvement of the province’stransportation network. Th e resurfacing of High-way 1 through Boston Bar is expected to be com-pleted by fall 2015.

Th e plan was created by government offi cials af-ter an extensive information retrieval strategy thatinvolved a sophisticated engagement process in fall2014. Th e engagement utilized information gath-ered from a public survey that received more than12,500 responses from B.C. priorities residents.

Ministry staff consulted with the entire province,First Nations, transportation authorities, local mu-nicipalities and interested stakeholders to ascertainlocal and regional priorities.

Over the next three years, the Ministry ofTransportation and Infrastructure will investabout $2.5 billion to improve British Columbia’stransportation network.

Th e actions prioritized in B.C. on the Move areexpected to grow the economy, improve safety,maintain and replace aging infrastructure and sup-port trade for B.C.’s expanding resource sectorsthrough Canada’s Asia-Pacifi c Gateway.

Multi-Vehicle Crash Shuts Down Hwy 1 Westbound from Hope to Herrling Island

News

Submitted byCpl. Ronda Rempel of BC RCMP Traffic Services

RCMP Fraser Valley Traffic Services were called to the bottom of the hill on Highway 1 at Herrling Island on Mon-day, July 13th at approximately 8 a.m., for a report of a broken down van in the left shoulder. As this was a road safety hazard, a member arrived on scene to assist the driver and mitigate any chance of a collision. All occupants of the van were out of the vehicle.

Preliminary information suggests a westbound vehicle, travelling in the fast lane braked suddenly to avoid colliding with the stopped police car, which at the time had all of its emergency lights flashing. This abrupt stop caused a sec-ond vehicle, also in the fast lane to hit the first vehicle that in turn struck the

police car from behind. A third vehicle then hit the second vehicle.

Within moments, a commercial truck took evasive action to avoid the first four vehicles, flipped on its side spilling its load of lumber all over the roadway. A fifth vehicle then hit the truck or the debris and came to a stop. A sixth and final vehicle, a large moving van flipped after the driver panicked in an effort to avoid the collision.

The van luckily did not make contact with the other vehicles.

“There is limited information on the vehicles, number of occupants or extent of injuries at this time,” said Cpl. Rem-pel of BC RCMP Traffic Services. “We can confirm at least one occupant with minor injuries was transported via am-bulance to a local area hospital.”

Fraser Valley Traffic Services is man-

aging this chaotic scene with support from Hope RCMP, Department of High-ways, BC Ambulance Service, Hope Fire Rescue and local area tow trucks.

There are several contributing factors; such as location, weather affecting the road condition and speed being looked at as potential causes of this multi-vehi-cle collision. Cpl. Rempel reminds driv-ers to slow down, keep your distance and be prepared to make a sudden stop at any time. You never know what obsta-cle you may be presented with and when you travel at a slower speed — you have more time to react.

At the time of this release, both west-bound lanes remain closed in order to clean up the debris and for Fraser Valley Traffic Services to continue their inves-tigation. Further updates about the road closure can be found at drivebc.ca.

Imagine standing on the side of Highway 1 as a Semi-Truck blows by you within feet, travelling over 100 Km/hr. This is what roadside workers experience everyday while doing their job to protect British Columbians and improve B.C. roads.

RCMP Traffic Services members from Port Mann, Fraser Valley and Greater Vancouver IRSU participated in Opera-tion Shield an enforcement operation to remind drivers of the Slow Down, Move Over legislation.

This effort was initiated after several near misses reported over the last few months from the field and even a few crashes. Luckily no one was seriously injured or killed.

The legislation was amended in January of this year to in-clude all official vehicles.

If you see red, blue or yellow flashing lights, you must slow down and move over when safe.

A driver must slow to 70 km/hr when travelling in a speed

zone 80 km/hr or greater. If the speed limit is less than 80 km/hr, you must slow to 40 km/hr.

“Making a safe lane change to move over is easy if you are looking ahead and paying attention,” said Cpl. Rempel of BC RCMP Traffic Services.

During Operation Shield, officers issued over 30 violation tickets and a $173 fine with 3 penalty points.

Officers observed numerous trucks failing to slow down to the 70 km/hr and move over.

With the sheer weight of these vehicles, a crash would most likely be fatal for the officer and the driver who was stopped.

“Drivers of passenger vehicles were also guilty of the same offence, some passing the fully marked police vehicle at speeds greater than 100 km/hr,” she said.

Over a ten year period, 235 roadside workers have been in-jured and 15 have been killed.

“We are reminding motorists to slow down and move over for all official vehicles — roadside workers need B.C. drivers to be the protectors now.

That’s Not a Freight Train; it’s a Semi-Truck Failing to Slow Down and Move Over

Recent campaigning by officials has been met with little success, as a new attempt to create awareness around road safety issues was

brought to the table in Operation Shield

Parents question School BoardNews

At a recent adhoc meeting of Fraser-Cascade School District No. 78, the Board was met with heated frustrations, as parents concerned with the lack of ad-herence to a policy regarding cross boundary bussing came to the forefront of discussion for the Harrison Hot Springs/Kent area.

Policy 7700 (Section 1) states that ineligible students (students not atttending current route schools) may ride the bus, pro-vided there is space available on the bus and that no extra stops are required.

According to parents in atten-dance, the Board has reverted to policy (7000,) which negates policy 7700. Policy 7000 ca-

ters to students who attend the catchment area school only. Th e policy directly states that par-ents whose children transfer to a non-catchment school are re-sponsible for transportation to and from school.

Burnt out parents from the Harrison Hot Springs and Kent area voiced strong opinions, regarding the dismissal of an already established policy and called for further resolution and accountability on behalf of the Board.

“We want the Board to stick to their policy that’s all,” said con-cerned parent Michelle Mailhot and owner of two Subway res-taurants in the Agassiz area. “I have to make two trips a day,

when there is an empty bus rid-ing in front of me — it’s ridicu-lous.”

Th e Board stood fi rmly by their resolve to stick to policy 7000, until the proper protocol could be established to revise current policies which are in confl ict with one another.

Th e transportation driver, caught in the crossfi re of the situation maintained that it was his duty to follow direction from the Board.

“We will reconvene on August 25th, when we are better able to establish the appropriate steps to be taken to rectify the situation,” Super Intendent of School Dis-trict No. 78, Dr. Karen Nelson told Th e Hope Standard.

Hope Arts Gallery welcomes internErin KnutsonHope Standard

Intern Part I

Th e Hope Arts Gallery and Th e Art Machine re-cently welcomed a new intern — Lena Wacyshen, a fourth year student in the Bachelor of Fine Arts pro-gram at the University of Fraser Valley, showed up for her fi rst day on the job (a job she loves) on June 23rd, courtesy of Canada Grants and hitting it off with Gal-lery operator Diane Ferguson. Lena is learning the ropes of both establishments and discovering the business aspects that go into running an art gallery/studio, while getting her hands dirty.

“I spend half of my time at the Art Gallery of-fi ce and the other half at the Art Machine (where she teaches three diff erent classes,)” Lena told Th e Hope Standard. I’m learning a lot of valuable stuff at the offi ce as well —it’s important to learn both sides of the business.”

Th e Chilliwack native who hopes to teach art in a high school setting one day, tried her hand in fi ne

art at the Chilliwack Cultural Arts Centre and never looked back, dabbling extensively in diverse medi-ums over the years and getting involved in diff erent programs and volunteer opportunities to teach art, at places like the Salvation Army and the YMCA.

“I was sort of an outcast in high school and art was something I was good at and felt good about — I made more friends and I was more approachable,” said Lena of her high school experience, an experi-ence that gave her a creative outlet for the impetus of her specialties which include painting, printmaking and fi lm photography.

Lena is passionate about working in a dark room setting and told Th e Hope Standard that working with analogue (fi lm) gives the artist a diff erent perspective photographically and perhaps an edge as well.

“It makes me look at light diff erently — you have to spend more time with each image, you have to think about the image more and you can’t just adjust a red eye, or remove a pimple with photoshop and be onto the next image,” she said.

Th e threat to human health from climate change is so great that it could undermine the last 50 years of gains in development and global health. Th is statement headlines a landmark report by a new Commission at the Univer-sity College London Institute for Global Health. Th e report was published last month in the prestigious journal Th e Lancet.

“Climate change has the potential to reverse the health gains from economic development that have been made in recent decades, not just through the di-rect eff ects on health from a changing and more unstable climate but through indirect means such as increased migration and reduced social stability,” said Commission co-Chair Professor Anthony Costello. “However, our analysis clearly shows that by tackling climate change we can also benefi t health, and tackling climate change in fact represents one of the greatest opportunities to benefi t human health for generations to come.”

Th e report outlined the direct health impacts of climate change which come from the increasing frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, espe-cially heat waves, fl oods, droughts and storms. Indirect impacts come from changes in infectious disease patterns, air pollution, food insecurity and mal-nutrition, involuntary migration, displacement and confl icts.

According to the World Health Organization, the health eff ects of climate change will be felt in air quality, suffi cient availability of safe drinking water, enough food, and secure shelter. WHO estimates that between 2030 and 2050, climate change could cause approximately 250,000 additional deaths per year from malnutrition, malaria, diarrhea, and heat stress.

A dollar fi gure on health costs is around $2 billion to $4 billion a year by 2030 and those with the least ability to cope (largely in developing countries) will need the greatest help to respond to their health challenges.

Extreme high temperatures contribute directly to deaths from cardiovascu-lar and respiratory disease, particularly among elderly people. High tempera-tures like those seen recently also raise the levels of ozone and other air pollut-ants especially from wildfi res that exacerbate cardiovascular and respiratory disease. Pollen and other allergen levels are also higher in extreme heat and can trigger asthma which aff ects some 300 million people a year.

Th e report’s authors and WHO independently agree that reduction of green-house gas emissions through lowering pollution and choosing sustainable en-ergy give us at least a shot at protecting health and maintaining the status quo.

“Climate Change is a medical emergency,” said co-Chair Professor Hugh Montgomery at the UCL Institute for Human Health and Performance. “It thus demands an emergency response, using the technologies available right now..”

Th e B.C. legislature is back in session this week, a rare summer sitting to approve a 25-year project agreement for the fi rst large-scale liquefi ed natural gas project in northern B.C.

Finance Minister Mike de Jong released the lengthy legal agreement prior to the debate, say-ing this step should remove any doubt that an international investment group led by Petronas of Malaysia intends to go ahead.

With billions invested in upstream resources and buyers waiting at home, the Pacifi c North-west LNG group includes Chinese state corpo-ration Sinopec, Indian Oil Corp., Japan Petro-leum Exploration Corp. and Petroleum Brunei.

Th e most contentious issue is the govern-ment’s intention to protect the investors from “discriminatory” tax and regulations for the life of the project.

Th e government insists these sorts of long-term cost certainty agreements are common-

place, and don’t aff ect provincial and federal taxes or environmental regulations unless they single out LNG operations.

Future governments can raise corporate tax rates, carbon tax or enter into a cap and trade system. Ottawa can scrap capital cost allowanc-es that were recently extended to LNG produc-ers, which is signifi cant because Liberal leader Justin Trudeau has indicated he would get rid of what he calls subsidies to fossil fuels.

Both the province and Ottawa allow capi-tal cost write-off s against corporate tax, to attract investment. B.C. attracted a lot of gas drilling rigs from Alberta with tax breaks for deep drilling.

Th e B.C. government invited comparisons with Western Australia LNG producers, and NDP researchers did just that. Th ey noted that Australia’s Gorgon and North West Shelf LNG projects have written provisions that local em-ployment and local suppliers will get preference.

Th ose are absent in B.C., along with appren-ticeship guarantees for LNG.

“Th ere was hard bargaining by the compa-nies, and certainly the premier went into this negotiation in a very weak position, having to deliver on her extravagant and grandiose promises from the election,” NDP critic Bruce Ralston said. “Th e companies did well. Wheth-er the citizens of British Columbia did well is certainly an open question.”

Green Party MLA Andrew Weaver painted himself into a corner, having spent the last two years dismissing the B.C. LNG industry as a fantasy that will never come to pass, strictly on economic grounds. He has since branded the Petronas deal, a template for any future projects, a “generational sellout.”

Another big player with gas well invest-ments in northeast B.C. is Shell, with a proposal for Kitimat. Its prospects have im-proved since it took over British Gas Group, which had its own LNG intentions here. An-other group led by Altagas remains on track to ship LNG from its Douglas Channel site before the end of the decade.

It’s important to remember that without LNGexports, B.C.’s natural gas industry will shrinkrapidly aft er 50 years of increasingly signifi cantrevenues from sales to the U.S. Leaving aside allthe political positioning around the province’slargest private investment to date, if this doesn’tgo ahead we will all feel the eff ects.

De Jong had a blunt response when askedwhat the province gets in return for all its guar-antees of low tax environment: “Th eir money.”

At peak construction, Pacifi c NorthwestLNG will need as many as 4,500 workers, with500 or more operations jobs depending on howfar it expands.

Th e fi nance ministry forecasts that once Pa-cifi c Northwest LNG is up and running, it rep-resents $9 billion in revenues to the provinceover 10 years, including gas royalties and taxes.Th at’s more than taxpayers can expect from theentire forest industry.

I as an endorser of the petition being circulated in Hope, wish to state in an emphatic manner, that at no time was the petition talking about our fire personnel. Did you read the petition? If so, where did it have any reference to our volunteers?

We all know that the fire personnel give up a great deal to help protect us, and the amount of compensation they receive is totally inadequate for the task they perform. However, these are individuals who have volunteered, for which, I at least, am truly grateful.

The petition has nothing to do with these individuals. If you had read the petition, which presumably you did, you would have understood that it was aimed at the management.

Since when does a small district like ours, require a fully salaried fire chief, when the rest of the members are volunteers?

I understand the position of fire chief is extremely important, but in a district this size a part-time fire chief, and a part-time assistant would

seem more adequate. If the position is fully salaried with the personal use of a truck, the chief

could perhaps conduct training seminars, or inspections of town proper-ties that are messy and a potential fire hazard. Are the owners of these properties informed?

Before you write a letter complaining of anonymous petitions please note, everyone who signed the petition gave their name and address; there-fore, it was hardly an anonymous petition taking a snipe at anyone.

The problem must be dire, if so many people have signed. Perhaps you should spend your time checking the facts, before taking a “swipe” at the concerned citizens of Hope.

P.M. Crystal Hope B.C.

Searching for opinions on the roadI went on a search of opinions of what the Ca-

nadians think of the shape Canada is in. My trip started right here in Hope, B.C. and went to Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario and back to Hope B.C.

My fi rst day took me to a campground in Moxie Lake a few miles west of Cranbrook B.C. Th e people there did not seem to have a care in the World, they were really enjoying their holiday’s.

On the second day I went through Calgary, as always seemed to be busy getting ready for their yearly “Stampede,” then I ended up in Edmonton, Alberta. Edmonton was very, very busy, construc-tion wise, but even so their hostels were feeding and bedding homeless people to their capacity.

Continuing east on Yellowhead Highway, major cities like Lloydminister and Saskatoon were being

overwhelmed by the people using the food banks and hostels. In most small towns where I stopped to refuel my van, I was sure to fi nd the food bank timetable on their notice boards. Most farmers were complaining about the high cost of feed for their animals and the lack of rain this late in the year.

When it comes to Manitoba, I decided not to check on Winterpeg for personal reasons, bad things have a tendency of happening to me, during visits to this city.

Although I have to say that Manitoba has the best highway as far as the Trans Canada highway is con-cerned. Th ere is also a lack of passing lane available, during designated passing zones — which makes it hard to pass when the speed limit is only 90 km/h.

Ontario also has a problem with the growing

need for food banks and for hostels. My former hometown, the Soo has been changing tremen-dously since I left , and that has been about 40 years ago. You can shoot a cannon down main street aft er 6 o’clock, without worrying about hitting anyone.

Last but not least, I wavered from my idea of speaking to Canadians about the shape Canada is in today. In my opinion, we better start to worry bout the situation in Greece to avoid, what is happening there presently. With a forthcoming, general elec-tion, it is time to wake up our politicians from their doldrums before its too late.

CO suspended for saving cubsWe are writing with regard to the issue of Conservation Offi cer

Bryce Casavant being, who was suspended without pay for saving the lives of two bear cubs in Port Hardy, B.C. We are ashamed at how wildlife issues are managed in this province. We have wit-nessed too many deaths of wildlife animals at the hands of conser-vation offi cers who are acting in accordance with the policies set out by our provincial government. We want you to know that this on-going slaughter is not missed or ignored by us or many other residents of this province.

It is entirely anthropocentric, inhumane and short-sighted to believe that we have the right to exterminate other animals in the name of convenience and economy. Every year hundreds of healthy bears, bear cubs, coyotes, coyote pups, cougars, wolves and so on are killed in our province by this government. We have spoken personally and at length with many conservation offi cers and have heard all of the justifi cations and rationales. We are tired of hearing how these animals are a threat to human safety. It is we humans that are the biggest threat.

In fact, here in Kamloops a few years ago two rescued bear cubs were taken to our Wildlife Park and were slaughtered upon their ar-rival due to government policy. Minutes aft er their extermination,

the Northern Lights Wildlife Shelter called to say they had heard of the bear cub rescue and were ready and willing to send someone down to pick up the cubs and transport them to the wildlife shelter. Th e shelter was informed that the bear cubs had already been killed. We also know, having spoken to operators of the wildlife shelters in B.C., that many of them receive government funding and that even they are therefore obligated to tow your unethical line. We want you to know that we are citizens of this province who are outraged at your policies and practices. We are disappointed that you would condone the slaughter of these two cubs and the castigation of Of-fi cer Casavant. You should be commending Offi cer Casavant for his forward-thinking, progressive, compassionate refusal to carry out your anthropocentric policies. We salute Offi cer Casavant for his courage to stand up for what is right and we believe he should not only be immediately reinstated to his job (with back pay), but that you should promote him to be your consultant and advisor on the humane, sane and compassionate treatment and stewardship of our wildlife brethren.

The Art Machine comes to lifeArts&Life

From 5

Th e 25 year-old bases her projects on inspira-tion she takes from real life and has broached First Nations issues and created a personal docu-mentary style photo essay on the life of a thrift store shopper, taken from her own love of all things thrift store.

“It’s great to raise is-sues, issues about the community, something to draw attention to —perhaps a detail that people have missed.” Th e observational and experi-mental artist, gravitates toward mixed mediums and changing things up.

“I love observing people,” she said.

Lena will complete her internship on August, 22nd and hopes to fi nish her fi nal year strong, as she contines on to com-plete her PDP (teacher certifi cation.) She im-parted a few words on the solidity of the Art Gallery and the Art Machine.

“I like how everyone contributes — Diane is kind of the backbone, but everyone pitches in, whether it’s someone cleaning up, or some-one volunteering here or there. Everything is made possible by everyone con-tributing,” said Lena. “It wouldn’t exist without the volunteers.”

Part II

What the new intern at Th e Hope Arts Gallery and Th e Art Machine told Th e Hope Standard in a one-on-one interview.

Lena Wacyshen, aged 25, fourth year Bachelor of Fine Arts student at UFV and Erin Knutson, aka, HS.

HS: What kind of class is this (in reference to an earlier children’s art class at the Art Machine)?

LW: We take on kids from the rec centre for the summer for an hour every Monday morning — today we made fi shing rods and they decorated little fi sh, and their little fi shing rods. It was super-cool, as you saw things got pretty hectic at the end when the kids started

playing with their fi shing rods, but, when they were actually making them, they were a little more calm, a little more into it.

HS: Art, what does it bring to kids?

LW: I think it makes them cooperate better for sure, and it defi nitely helps with their dexter-ity — some kids are more rough with it and others are more tender about it and go carefully, which I think is really good.

Th e program really creates a sense of com-munity, because the kids are working together and they also know how things work, and they can take the classes with us later and get a start in the arts —that’s how I got my

start, at a community program.

HS: Does art enhance a child’s development in any way?

LW: For sure — I think it builds charac-ter, because working together is part of it and fi nding out how they learn, what kind of art they like to make, what kind of colours they like to use, it all plays into their identity and it helps

them to fi nd it. HS: What level is this

particular class on?LW: It’s a rudimentary

level — we do small craft s that you can com-plete within an hour, but within a class there is a wide spectrum, some kids are scribbly about it, and some kids are into the fi ne de-tails and want to make things perfect, so it’s to-tally individual for what kids want and can do.

HS: What do you enjoy about teaching kids?

LW: I like how fun they are, how imaginative they are — things can get kind of crazy sometimes, but it’s kind of fun to watch, it’s fun to watch kids squirm around and have a good

time with each other and it’s also really cool to see what they come up with, because they’re not as concerned about making things pretty and proper — things can be crazy and colourful, they have a sense of wonder and ad-venture with it, which is pretty fun to watch.

HS: Do you recom-mend it to kids who are a bit standoffi sh about art, or maybe scared to try?

LW: Yeah, for sure, es-pecially the simple craft s, it’s not like we’re taking on a big painting where they have to fi nish it, it’s a simple one-hour craft that anyone can do and have fun with.

HS: Does it improve your student’s confi dence level?

LW: I think so, be-cause when they see something when it’s done at the end, they can feel good about making it and that makes them feel a bit more confi -dent about what they’ve made. It doesn’t seem like they compare their work to each other and having fun develops your sense of identity and your confi dence as well, so that’s really im-portant.

HS: What do you hope the kids will get out of the art experience?

LW: We’d love it, if it sparks an interest in the arts and they come to a painting class or a pot-tery class — that would be super awesome. Ex-ploring things and fi nd-ing out who you are when you’re young is important.

Explore everything you can and we have this great program here, so you might as well take advantage of it.

KELLY PEARCE / HOPE MOUNTAIN CENTRE

BC Parks rangers James Godfrey (left) and Owen Catherall work with Hope Mountain Centre volunteers Ben Ten Cate Brouwer and Ray Daws to install new signs along the Hope-Nicola Valley Trail near the Othello Tunnels. Open to hikers, mountain bikes and horses, the trail was once part of an 1876 cattle route used by Merritt ranchers to bring their cattle to Hope via the Coldwater and Coquihalla valleys, following a similar route to Highway-5. The trail passes through beautiful stands of old-growth forest and offers dramatic viewpoints. New signs and trail improvements were funded by the BC Parks Enhancement Fund and AdvantageHOPE with project coordination by Hope Mountain Centre.

Hope Care Transitlooks forward to a new van

Community

Erin Knutson Hope Standard

Th e First West Foundation, which acts as an arm of the Community Endowment Fund branch at Envision Financial, recently granted Hope Care Transit, a cheque for $18,000 to go toward the non-profi t organiza-tion’s dream of add-ing a wheelchair accessible van to the fl eet.

Th e cheque will cover over half the cost to purchase the greatly antici-pated van that fea-tures a lift and will accommodate up to three passengers.

“We are ready to go ahead with the purchase and are looking for the lowest kilometres on a two-year-old vehicle,” said Shari-Carrat, president of Care Transit. “We have the okay from the Board.”

Th e van will allow greater accessibility to those living in the community with medical needs in a much more effi cient and cost eff ective manner.

Clients will be aff orded the opportunity to trav-el comfortably to appointments and various out-ings in a style that was previously unavailable to them in a 20 person bus.

“Regular drivers can even drive it,” said Carrat of the van’s accessibility to Transit volunteers.

Th e organization is always looking for new driv-ers, so as not to burn out current volunteer driv-ers who contribute countless thousands of hours

yearly, driving passengers to and from doctor’s appointments, outings, and to meet bus connec-tions in Chilliwack, such as the route 66 express which goes all the way to Vancouver.

“It’s a lot of wear and tear when we’re trans-porting passengers — so it’s nice to have a bigger, more comfortable vehicle for riders,” Carrat told Th e Hope Standard. “Hopefully it will open up the community more, while building and expanding as time goes on.”

Care Transit has been going strong since its con-ception in 2006 and will continue to implement its vision, while accommodating daily changes.

“It’s our goal to give the best service to as many people as possible in the community.”

The First West Foundation, an arm of the Community Endowment Fund branch at Envision Financial, granted Hope Care Transit Socity a whopping cheque for $18,000 to go toward the purchase of a new wheelchair accessible van.

PTSD sufferer brings hope and awarenessthrough her cross country walk

The long way home

News

Erin Knutson and Cindy MurphyHope Standard

In 2012, Kate MacEachern, then a Corporal in Armoured Corps was on medical leave due to a serious injury and forgot to call her grandmother, in fact, she forgot for several days. Th e response MacEachern received from her grandmother when she fi nally called was this:

“I was starting to think you put on those army boots and walked clear across the world to save someone.”

Those words, as innocuous as they appeared at the time, inspired The Long Way Home, Corpo-ral MacEachern’s self-assigned mission to raise awareness of the burden and stigma endured by those struggling with Post-Traumatic Stress Dis-order (PTSD.)

Kate is no stranger to those struggles. As a member of the mounted troop in the Lord

Strathcona’s Horse Regiment, she suff ered life-threatening injuries —not only was the road to physical recovery long, arduous and fraught with setbacks, but she continued and continues to this day to suff er from PTSD.

“When I got off the phone with my Nanny, something clicked — the thoughts I had about desperately wanting to help others struggling with injuries, plus the comment about walking across the world in my army boots sparked something profound in me — I wondered, could she be onto something?” said MacEachern.

Th e advent of Th e Long Way Home was born in 2012, as MacEachern began a 19-day walk, tra-versing a trail spanning 576 kilometres from Gag-etown, NB to Antigonish, NS. In 2012, aft er ob-taining a medical release from the military, Kate walked a staggering 1876 kilometres from Cape Breton, NS, to Ottawa, ON.

Success from the careful navigation of her prior strenuous and resourceful journeys, led MacEach-ern to a repeat walk that started on May 1st, 2015. Bravely shouldering her bag, MacEachern packed up her rucksack and then hit the road again in an attempt to raise awareness for the condition.

“It’s difficult for people to understand the na-ture of invisible injuries like PTSD — the ruck symbolizes the weight carried by those who bat-

tle it,” she said.Th is will be her longest and hardest trek.MacEachern began her westward journey aft er

a reception at Government House with the Hon-ourable Vaughn Solomon Schofi eld, Lieutenant Governor of Saskatchewan and the journey will come to end in Chilliwack during the B.C. for the Wounded Warriors Weekend on July 24th.

“Many don’t realize the emotion that goes into these marches – out on the road, there is a constant struggle to stay focused and not let emotion take over, it’s about having a strong mind, strong body connection. It’s a lonely journey in many ways, physically and psychologically,” said MacEachern.

Th e Long Way Home is coming to Hope on July 22nd to present funds at the Canadian Legion Hall. All proceeds will be donated to PTSD and to facilitate the pairing of service dogs with those surviving PTSD through an organization called Paws for veterans.

“Having an animal gives people a feeling of re-sponsibility and a reason to get out of bed in the morning — in my opinion, no one should live alone,” said Branch No 228 Legion member Ian Williams.

Williams told Th e Hope Standard that PTSD is starting to get the attention it deserves, as many veterans come home suff ering from various de-grees of the debilitating psychological illness, which is caused from distressing trauma sustained on duty.

“They didn’t understand what it was three decades ago, but now it’s being recognized as a legitimate illness,” he said. “It’s prevalent, very prevalent.”

What used to be treated with a “suck it up” at-titude is now being acknowledged for its severity and its relevance to a new generation of suff erer’s — people coming out of places like Afghanistan.

Th e Royal Canadian Legion Branch No 228 and the District of Hope fi rst responders wish to invite the citizens of Hope to come out on July 22nd at 5 p.m. to line Wallace Street from 6th Ave to 3rd Ave to greet Kate MacEachern, as she ends her walk in the name of PTSD.

For more infromation or to donate please visit Http://www.thelongwayhome.ca, or call Renee Charbonneau at 780-402-8892 bdbetty@gmail.

Kate MacEachern takes a moment of rest on the side of the road, during her 2015 walk across Canada to bring awareness and to rasie funds for veterans suffering from PTSD.

New streamlined intake clinicsoffer solution to parents seeking help

Opinion

Dr. David SmithAdolescent and adult psychiatrist and the medical director of the Okanagan Psychiatric services for Interior Health.

When it comes to young people, early identifi cation and treatment of mental health or substance use issues can be crit-ical. In my series of articles I have been recommending three main actions for parents who know or suspect their son or daughter is experiencing mental health diffi culties:

1. Consult one or more of the informa-tive BC websites and organizations avail-able to you. You can connect with other youth and parents with lived experience through the FORCE at forcesociety.com or through the Kelty Mental Health Re-source Centre at keltymentalhealth.ca or toll free at 1 800 665 1822. Other helpful sites are anxietybc.ca, mindcheck.ca, or cmha.bc.ca.

2. Talk to your family doctor — in re-cent years many general practitioners in B.C. have taken extra training in child and youth mental health diagnosis, treat-ment and management.

3. Call Service BC at 1-800-661-8773 to fi nd the Ministry of Children and Fam-ily Development (MCFD) offi ce nearest to you. You can also access the Child and Youth Mental Health and Substance Use service map at: www.health.gov.bc.ca/healthy-minds/cymhsu-servicesmap.html

In this column, I want to focus on MCFD's Child and Youth Mental Health (CYMH) Services, which are off ered in more than 80 locations across the prov-ince, and in particular their new intake process. Th e process streamlines and standardizes mental health screening and initial assessments for those under 19 years of age for quicker access to mental health resources.

Many families who've never connected with MCFD previously are surprised to learn that community-based CYMH ser-vices have been provided under the um-brella of MCFD for close to two decades.

While family doctor visits, emergency room services, or hospital admissions all fall under the health system, if your child

needs further assessment and treatment or ongoing community-based therapy, you may be referred to MCFD’s Child and Youth Mental Health Services.

Psychiatrists, like me, work both with the health authority and MCFD servic-es, depending on whether we see your child in the hospital or in the community through the CYMH clinic.

Over the past 18 months the MCFD began a new intake screening and initial assessment process. Previously, access to services took anywhere from a few days to a few weeks. Now, under the new streamlined intake, the process typically takes a few hours.

It works very much like a walk-in-med-ical clinic. If you feel your child needs help, all you do is show up to the offi ce closest to you with your child during the intake hours. (Teens can show up on their own without parents, if preferred.) See #3 at the beginning of this column for how to fi nd your nearest clinic.

Th e administrative assistant will give you a form to fi ll out that asks for basic information, including symptoms and concerns. Aft er the information is en-tered into the system, an intake clinician will review it and meet with you privately to engage in a brief pre-screening inter-view.

At that time the following options will be considered as next steps:

• Is an urgent response (such as hospi-tal admission) required?

• Do you need some more information, parenting resources, and/or validation and support?

• Would a referral to another com-munity service be better suited for your child’s and family’s concerns?

• Or is it appropriate to proceed to the full intake interview to understand more about potential mental health challenges?

If it is the latter, the intake clinician will continue with a more in-depth in-take interview and screening process. All the while, the clinician will talk with you about the best way to meet your child's

needs, whether it is an urgent response,referral to others or acceptance intoCYMH services. Th ose services may in-clude anything from assessment, diagno-sis and treatment by a specialist psychia-trist like me, or work with other mentalhealth practitioners such as a nurse orclinical counsellor, especially for specifi chelp like cognitive-behavioural therapy,or group therapy, among many options.

At the end of that fi rst intake meetingyou are then provided with a copy of abrief plan for initial supports and services-- all in a couple of hours. While theremay still be waitlists for specifi c treat-ments or specialized services, the intakeprocess is greatly simplifi ed.

As one parent recently noted about thenew intake system: "I was pleasantly sur-prised at how easy and welcoming thisexperience has been — I am grateful tothe clinician for making us feel so com-fortable and at ease while talking aboutsome really tough issues concerning mydaughter."

Th is new process is expected to be fullyavailable at all offi ces by the end of 2015and will support approximately 80 percent of BC children and youth seeking as-sessment through MCFD. For the small-er number of children or youth whosesymptoms or concerns are much moresevere or complex, the CYMH offi ce mayarrange alternative options for the fi rstintake. Th is can include outreach, wherea CYMH team-member would meet thechild and family at home or in the com-munity rather than having on the familyto come to them.

Dr. David Smith is an adolescent andadult psychiatrist and the medical direc-tor of the Okanagan Psychiatric servicesfor Interior Health. This series of col-umns on common child and youth men-tal health issues is a project of the Childand Youth Mental Health and SubstancesUse Collaborative, jointly funded by Doc-tors of BC and the government of BC. TheCollaborative recently received a nationalaward from the College of Family Physi-cians of Canada and the Canadian Psy-chiatric Association.

Self-first isn’t selfishLori WelbourneColumnist

I’ve developed a bad habit of putting other people’s needs ahead of my own. Actually, I’ve had this habit my entire life, but lately it’s been getting worse.

I know. What mother doesn’t do that?

Th e smart ones, that’s who.Th ere’s a great analogy about being in an emergency on an airplane and placing the oxygen mask on yourself fi rst so you’re able to help those around you. It makes perfect sense. But do I typically help myself before oth-ers? Not usually. And I’m espe-cially not doing it now.

I’m writing this article in the wee hours of the morning, not because I’ve woken up early or stayed up late, but because I didn’t go to bed at all. I’ve been

pulling a lot of all-nighters re-cently and only getting three to fi ve hours of sleep the rest of the time. Th at lack of sleep is catch-ing up with me.

I’m more forgetful, less pro-ductive and absolutely exhaust-ed. And when it comes time for column writing, I oft en feel empty, like I have nothing to of-fer.

“You need some me-time,” my 12-year-old daughter, Daisy said yesterday. I agree. I do. For many months I’ve been put-ting myself on the back burner while concentrating on helping other people. I haven’t been tak-ing care of myself physically or mentally, and nodding off at the computer while in an upright position has become a common occurrence.

Th is time last year I was do-

ing far better. Despite being ex-tremely busy, I still managed to hike daily, eat healthy and get plenty of sleep. I was also mak-ing time to do things I enjoyed. I felt happier and more creative then; I want to feel like that again. But with work, volun-teering and family obligations, where do I fi nd the time?

“Just do it Mom,” Daisy said. “Go away for a day and only do things for yourself to get used to it. Aft er that, put yourself on the schedule like you did before. We’ll all be fi ne.”

I knew she was right. I also knew my family would ben-efi t if I followed her advice. We are far more eff ective at help-ing others when we are at our best, so I’m going to make tak-ing care of myself a top priority again.Spending at least 10 min-

utes a day to write in a gratitudejournal will be part of that plan.Every time I get into the dailyroutine of reminding myself ofthe things in life I’m thankfulfor, I become a more focusedand positive thinker. And thatmindset always helps me realizethat I should be as loving andrespectful to myself as I am withthe people I cherish.

It also helps me understandthat putting myself fi rst isn’tselfi sh or bad like I grew upbelieving it was, it’s actually vi-tal to the way I want to live thesecond half of my life. By be-coming stronger and healthier,I will have much more to givemy family, my friends and theworld in general.

Submitted by Dawn Gibson (daughter)

In the early 1900’s Pearl and George Buchanan left Wisconsin to home-stead in Spring Valley, Saskatchewan. Lilian was born March 7th, 1920 in Moose Jaw. During a se-vere drought that lasted several years, the Buchan-an's’ packed up their young family and moved to Weir-dale, Saskatchewan, where they lived and farmed until George died in the early 60’s. One of Lilian-Lynne’s brothers, George kept on the family farming tradi-tion and farmed for many more years aft er that.

Lilian-Lynne always dreamed of becoming a nurse. Her family, while always having enough to eat, did not have any spare cash, but her Dad was able to borrow the tuition $50, so Lynne could attend Nursing School at the Holy Family Hospital in Prince Al-bert, Saskatchewan.

Still in training, she met and fell in love with Norman Egan who became her husband. Th e Holy Family was a very strict teach-ing hospital and Nurse Trainee’s were forbidden to marry while in training for fear they’d get preg-nant and not fi nish. So, secretly she and Norman married in 1943 just before she graduated.

Norm and Lynne moved to B.C., where Norman Jr. was born in 1945 and their twin girls Heather and Dawn arrived in 1950.

Th ey owned and operated sev-eral sawmills and later Norm went into construction. Th ey lived in many towns and cities through-out B.C. and Lynne continued her Nursing career.

Among her many accomplish-

ments, she was the Director of Nursing at St. Mary’s Hospital, Sechelt, Ladysmith Hospital on Vancouver Island and retired as Di-rector of Nursing from Princeton Hospital in 1982.

Upon retirement Lynne and Norm bought property in Slocan, B.C., where they lived until Norm’s health required that they live in a larger community.

Interesting to note that during 43 years of operating many dif-ferent types of intricate medical equipment Lynne never learned to drive. She had a few run ins with fences when she had her learn-ers and always put the driver test on the back burner. At the age of 68, she got her license aft er tak-ing driving lessons in Nelson and learned to parallel park by lining garbage cans in their driveway.

Th ey moved to Lynne Valley for a brief time to be closer to their girls, but found the city far too busy and decided to move to Hope in 1991, where they lived for 14 years.

Sadly Lynne and Norm lost their

son in 1998, Norm died in 2000 and her twin daughter Heather died this year.

She made many friends and was very involved with the Hope com-munity and stayed another fi ve years. Heather and Dawn wanted her to be closer and she moved to West Vancouver in 2005, where she still resides. Dawn is only 10 min-utes away and they see each other oft en, along with her grandson Aaron Gibson and his wife Lithena.

Lynne had her 95th birthday in March and throughout the years has made many friends, but none more so than her friendships, dur-ing her years living in Hope. Th e matriarch always put her family and friends ahead of herself and she has always been a giver. She is a past president of the Eagles Ladies auxiliary and she loved assisting residents of the Hope Lodge every Friday. On a personal note: Mom is the best mom a child could have and she is so loved by all who met and know her. She is truly a “Nurse Nightingale.”

Lilian-Lynne Egan’s daughter, Dawn Gibson (front right) surprised her mom with a luncheon at Rolly’s Restaurant in honor of her 95th birthday. Lillian is pictured here with some fellow Fraser Canyon Hospital Auxiliary members who attended.

PATTIE DESJARDINS / THE STANDARD


This year the Grizzlies recorded two wins at provincials — and collected bronze with less than four teams in their division

Grizzlies collect bronze Sports

Barry StewartHope Standard

Hope fastball play-ers made their second consecutive trip to the provincials, this time as a U-16 squad that in-cluded three U-14s.

Last year, in Surrey, they had no wins and fi nished last of eight teams. Th is year, the Grizzlies recorded two wins — and collected bronze medals.

Fine print: there were less than four teams in their division.

Still, the two wins were a big improve-ment from last year and rookie head coach Lindsea Cutt had lots of positives to come away with, from the weekend at Sooke.

“Th ey all play hockey together or ride bikes around town together, so they trusted each other and were very fa-miliar with each other,” said Cutt, who lives in Chilliwack but grew up playing fastball in Sum-merland.

“Th ey knew how to keep each other up, dur-ing the tough games,” she added — and there were a few of those.

Th e Grizzlies were en-tered as a C or “house” team and they were matched up against B teams from 100 Mile House, Sooke and Rich-mond — as well as C teams from Sooke and Port Alberni.

“We didn’t have any game experience to speak of,” said Cutt. “Th ey’d make mistakes in the game and when we talked about it, they’d say ‘I didn’t know that.’ You can only practice so much — you need game experience.”

Fastball numbers have slumped province-wide, so there were no nearby teams for Hope to play against.

Th ey did have two ex-hibition games with the Richmond B team a few weekend’s earlier, but only had two of their U-16s with

them at the time.Hope picked up two play-

ers from Chilliwack, who practiced with the team through the spring.

Gerry and Sue Dyson and Lawrence Campbell of Boston Bar also helped with coaching.

“McKenzie Price was a pitching student of Sue’s,” said Coach Cutt, who re-cently earned her diploma in horticulture and agri-culture at UFV. “She played girls’ fastball in Chilliwack but chose to join the boys this year — and Sue had

worked with Isaac Goodwill at the National Indigenous Games last year.

“We were lucky to have McKenzie and Isaac, for their experience and pitch-ing,” said Cutt.

“I think we were on par with the other teams for

pitching — and we ex-celled at batting. Weweren’t intimidated.

“Th e boys kind ofstole a piece of myheart,” she added. “Ican’t wait to coach themagain next year.”

Team manager, JesseJames said two of theplayers, Jacob Chisholmand Dryden Hambly,will be aged-out nextyear but the rest of theteam should be intact,with some moving upfrom the U-14s.

“They had so muchfun,” said James, whoseson Marcus played onthe team. “Half of uscamped and half of usstayed at the Best West-ern. “It was a good at-mosphere. We had someinjuries from overuse ofarms but they learnedthe game and they stucktogether through theblowouts, where theyearned some characterpoints.

“Terrie Davidson didall of our score-keep-ing in our games,” headded. Hope’s most re-sounding loss was 19-0against Sooke’s B teamon Saturday morn-ing. Perhaps they wereavenging Hope’s 16-10win over the Sooke Cson Friday. Grizzly bat-ters were able to scorea total of nine runs inlosses against the othertwo B teams.

Sooke C went downto Hope again on Sat-urday aft ernoon, 12-7— but spanked theGrizzlies 16-3 in the

double-knockout playoff son Sunday.

Grizzly MVPs in theirseven games were: JeromeCampbell, Jacob Chisholm,Marcus James (twice), Da-mon Campbell, McKenziePrice and Isaac Goodwill.

Dryden Hambly (right) and Mckenzie Price (first base), try to stop a Sooke player at first base. Hope’s most resounding loss was 19-0 against Sooke’s B team on Saturday morning. Perhaps they were avenging Hope’s 16-10 win over the Sooke Cs on Friday.
