New CAO gives Saanich mayor hopeTravis Paterson News Staff

As he extols what he likes about last week’s regional sewage proposal from Saan-ich resident John Knappett, Mayor Richard Atwell sketches a map of it on a notepad to make his point.

If there’s a controversial topic in the

region that’s bigger than the hot-button issues in Saanich, its sewage, which is a focus for Atwell. The first term mayor enters his second year with a goal to move the region’s stale solution for wastewater treatment forward.

Atwell’s hopeful that the Capital Regional District oversight panel will come through with a positive response on the viability of Knappett’s proposal.

“We have two sewage proposals, one for $1.3 billion and one for $800 million, and then we have this new Knappett solution

that uses less infrastructure and is sup-posed to be more seismically sound than the others for $470 million,” Atwell said. “John Knappett is a well respected guy, he’s on the board of directors for B.C. Hydro, his company handles large projects, I think he knows what he’s talking about.”

Sewage remains a leading topic on Atwell’s and Saanich’s calendar for 2016, as it has for a decade.

It’s just one of the contentious issues at CRD and Saanich council that Atwell will be tasked with. Also on the list of upcoming

issues is a resolution to the Environmental Development Permit Area bylaw, a parking solution to the Glendenning Road entrance of Mount Douglas Park, the hiring of a free-dom of information and privacy officer in Saanich and the implementation of new CAO Paul Thorklesson.

No matter what, it will be another year of learning for Saanich residents, council and Atwell.

While the B.C. government encourages stu-dents to pursue careers in trades through recent post-secondary investments, a local program by the Greater Victoria school dis-trict is helping high schoolers transition to university-level trades programs.

TASK – which stands for Trades Awareness, Skills and Knowledge – serves high school students in five school districts on Vancouver Island and Salt Spring Island, introducing them to carpentry, electrical, sheet metal, welding and plumbing. Currently in its fifth year, the semester-long program runs out of Lambrick Park secondary and is open to students from other high schools on the Island.

“It’s basically designed for a student that loves to work with their hands and their head and has a general interest in going into the construction sector, but they don’t really know what trade they want to go into,” said Nicola Priestley, careers and transitions coor-dinator with the GVSD.

According to Priestley, TASK was started to lead students into tuition-free dual credit ACE IT programs, which allow students to com-plete their first year of trades technical train-ing before they graduate high school.

“Within 13 different trades, we have these opportunities for our students to go to Camo-sun [College] and take the first year of these different trades while they’re still in high school,” she said.

Madelyn Batters took the TASK program in 2014 while she was still attending Mount Douglas secondary. Naturally inclined toward mechanics, Batters had taken all the available

shop classes and joined TASK on the recom-mendation of her principal.

“I was kind of set in one trade path and I hadn’t really been immersed in any other trades,” she said. “I didn’t get to do any hands-on experience until the TASK program, and it kind of showed me a few other avenues that I could take.”

Batters ended up liking electrical work more than mechanics, pursuing the field in her 236-hour work experience with a local electrical company. She also switched from Mount Doug to Lambrick to finish her senior year.

“I was still really interested in mechanics and I was like, what trade can I take that is in this course that’s going to help me with mechanics?” she recalled. “I thought electrical because there are a lot of electrical compo-nents to vehicles.

“I got to work with a lot of experienced journeymen. They had lots of little tips and tricks and they got to see how I worked. They bought me a toolkit at the end of my term and they told me I could come back.”

Though she has a standing job offer, Batters first has to complete her post-secondary edu-cation. She’s already set to start Camosun’s electrical foundation program in the spring – excellent timing, as the college is opening its $30 million Centre for Trades Education and Innovation early this year, partly funded by the province.

She doesn’t have her future entirely mapped out, but Batters has set a the goal of getting her Red Seal within five years, and she’s eager to see where the electrical trade takes her.

“That’s the cool thing about electrical and most trades – you can pretty much move all over Canada and get a job,” she said.

The Capital Regional District’s sewage committee is going back to the public for input, but some directors say the regional sewage options to be put forward are lacking.

The Core Area Liquid Waste Management Committee voted last week to bring a number of wastewater treatment options forward for public feedback.

Saanich Coun. Colin Plant voted in favour but believes there’s a cheaper, better-for-the-environment option still to be explored, such as the newly proposed concept by John Knappett for an $180 million underground treatment facility at Clover Point.

“Whether or not that is a completely distributed system, or a deep shaft system, we need to fully examine that and make those options available to the public,” Plant said.

As it stands, a series of high-level concepts will be released by the core area committee’s engineering consultants.

The belief is the public input will help drive the commit-tee in the right direction. The provincially mandated sew-age treatment system has been at a standstill for years, with one of the latest estimates at $1.3 billion.

Saanich Coun. Vic Derman spoke against going to the public with this amount of information, and noted the pub-lic found a “dearth of information” last time CRD opened the sewage plans to feedback.

“We don’t have solid information here,” Derman said. “We have five (options) or whatever it’s morphing to, mostly centred around Rock Bay. We already know there are other options.”

At the heart of the situation is a failure to reconcile between what some people believe versus what others are telling them, Plant said.

“For me saving money while meeting government require-ments is the goal,” Plant added. “$1.3 billion is going to eliminate a lot of opportunity to talk about other things in the region such as rapid transit, housing the homeless, or

a regional arts facility that I personally believe is needed, there’ll be no money left.”

Last Wednesday Saanich-based construction magnate John Knappett presented a proposal to the core area waste-water management committee that would use deep shaft technology to install a treatment facility below ground at Clover Point for about $170 million. (See Deep Shaft story on A13.)

Saanich Mayor Richard Atwell supports the Knappett proposal and believes it should be reconsidered going for-ward.

“The Clover Point model would have two additional ocean front sites added in Esquimalt and Colwood for an estimate of about $470 million,” Atwell said.

The proposal has not been accepted at this point though the CRD oversight panel was asked to provide a response on the viability of deep shaft technology.

Cordova Bay residents are being reminded to lock their vehicles following a string of more than 15 overnight thefts from vehicles in the area.

Saanich Police released a statement Monday, highlighting a spike in thefts from unlocked vehicles in the 4900 block of Cor-dova Bay Rd. Residents reported loose change, sunglasses, phone char-gers and small electron-ics such as iPods and GPS systems among the items stolen.

“It appears as if only unlocked vehicles are being targeted” stated acting Sgt. Jereme Les-lie.

“Vehicles in the area, that were locked were not entered. After rum-maging through and stealing items from the vehicles the suspect left the doors open, once he left, in order to not make any further noise.”

Cordova Bay is the latest com-munity in Saanich to get hit by unlocked vehicle break-ins. Last

month, Saanich Police warned Broadmead residents to lock up their cars after thieves helped them-selves to loose change and gift cards from more than a dozen unlocked vehicles.

Leslie said the thefts in Broadmead do not seem to be related to the thefts in Cordova Bay, apart from both involving unlocked vehicles.

In addition to lock-ing your vehicle, Saanich Police rec-ommend removing any valuables from your vehicle, such as shopping bags, tools and backpacks, to lessen your chances of becoming a target for theft.

Residents can report suspicious activity in their neighbourhood to the Saanich Police at 250-475-4321.

Anyone with knowledge about these thefts is asked to call the Saanich Police at that number, or Crimestoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477)[email protected]

Tom FletcherBlack Press

The B.C. government’s 14-year legal battle with the B.C. Teachers’ Federation over staffing levels will go one last round at the Supreme Court of Canada.

The top court announced Thursday it will hear the union’s appeal of last year’s decision by the B.C. Court of Appeal that the province didn’t vio-late bargaining rights with its 2002 legislation set-ting class size and special needs support.

Education Minister Mike Bernier said the long-running dispute won’t disrupt efforts to continue cooperation with teachers, and the latest five-year negotiated settlement shows “government’s rela-tionship with the BCTF has never been better.”

The agreement came in 2014, after a long, bit-ter strike that saw the government send out $40-a-day child care payments to 230,000 families for 13 school days lost due to strike action in the fall.

BCTF president Jim Iker said the latest appeal offers a chance to restore the 2002 class size limits and specialty teacher ratios, but the union won’t wait for another court proceeding to press its demands.

“A month from now, the B.C. Liberal government will deliver its 2016 budget,” Iker said. “Enrolment is starting to increase after years of decline and we know that there are more students with special needs, refugee students and others with unique needs entering the system.”

Bernier declined to comment on the details of the case, with another court action on the horizon.

“B.C. students rank first amongst all English-speaking countries in reading, science and math in international testing,” Bernier said. “We will keep working with the BCTF so students benefit from making our great education system even better.”

In fact, some things are going well in B.C.

Sewage deadline a collective drain

There’s a looming deadline so large, it’s about to make the Johnson Street bridge budget look almost trivial.

The good news is the March 31 target for a core area wastewater treatment plan seems to be finally hurrying things along. The bad news: it’s unreasonable to think at this point, so many years into the saga, that the collective councillors and mayors will sign off an a comprehensive solution necessary to get the promised public-private partnership fund for $83 million. It’s one of three federal funded grants to move the project along.

And yet the dialogue coming from CRD directors is not particularly comforting, to say the least. Some are trumpeting new ideas such as John Knappett’s deep shaft suggestion which, while yet unexplored, is cheaper and logical. Some are hitching their wagons to convoluted $1.3 billion and $1 billion plans. Some residents still believe the wastewater should be sent to sea untreated, as is. Others have fallen back to plans of the past.

Last month, former CRD chair Nils Jensen (mayor of Oak Bay) stated his plans to officially re-open McLoughlin Point as an option for wastewater treatment. Core area wastewater chair Lisa Helps (mayor of Victoria) immediately spoke out against it. Wait a minute, haven’t we read this story before?

Esquimalt rejected the site for sewage treatment in the spring of 2014, saying officials failed to deliver requested information including details on First Nations consultation, meeting minutes and an independent tsunami report for McLoughlin Point.

One has to wonder, what is it going to take for something to gain support at a CRD meeting? Time is running out and things should be happening with a unified super intensity that doesn’t seem to be there. All the jokes about flushing money down the toilet are just painful now. Perhaps an extension is in the works for the $83 million, but this has to be the team that maps the final solution.

In the early days of this new year, readers have advised me to do several things.

I’ll go with one that seems relatively pain-less, embracing the “sunny ways” of our new federal government and seeking optimism in these fragile times.

For starters, we have a build-ing boom going on in the south-west. Here in Victoria, cranes dot the skyline as new residen-tial-commercial projects emerge from bedrock, and hard hats are mostly on construction workers, scratched and backwards, rather than shiny and forward on politi-cians.

Shipyards are busy, with Royal Canadian Navy work and cruise ship refits to reduce their emis-sions, plus work on ferries, tugboats and barges.

Most of the activity is private invest-ment, much of it in a hot housing market. Surrey has just recorded its second-highest total for building permits in history, a value of $1.46 billion nearly matching the pre-recession peak of 2007.

Thousands of provincial employees get a small raise in February, based on stronger-than-forecasted economic growth in 2014. It works out to $300 a year for a medical technologist and $346 for a teacher.

Health care costs are rising less dramat-

ically. That should ease the crisis atmo-sphere at provincial and federal health min-isters’ negotiations over the funding for-mula, taking place this week in Vancouver.

Health Minister Terry Lake announced last week the prov-ince is increasing funding for a promising program in cancer research, using genetic analysis to improve targeting for drugs to treat the hundreds of differ-ent cancers diagnosed in B.C. patients each year.

The B.C. Cancer Agency’s new director, Dr. Malcolm Moore, oncologist Dr. Janessa Laskin and Dr. Marco Marra, director of the agency’s Genome Sci-ence Centre, described a world-leading centre of research that

is reaching out to specialists and their patients across the province and attracting international funding and talent for ground-breaking research.

Outside the urban regions, where retail sales and real estate mainly drive the econ-omy, sunny ways are harder to find. The mining and natural gas sectors are in the grip of a slump in commodity prices, with more temporary mine closures expected.

The forest industry is being helped by the low Canadian dollar and a steady recov-ery in the U.S. economy, and tourism is expected to have another strong year as

Americans take advantage of a discount on visits to B.C.

Central 1 Credit Union broke down the regional employment numbers for B.C. in 2015, and found job growth in every region except the Cariboo. Province-wide employ-ment grew 1.2 per cent last year, ahead of the national rate. That may not sound like much, but compared to Alberta’s oil-dependent economy, it’s pretty good. Con-struction of a new dam on the Peace River is expected to ramp up this year, bringing workers home from Alberta, and the fed-eral government is planning to fast-track its promised infrastructure spending to create work across the country.

Energy and Mines Minister Bill Bennett was in Toronto last week to ring the open-ing bell at the stock exchange with B.C. mining industry representatives.

Not much sun on mining stocks these days, but Bennett’s sales pitch to an inves-tor luncheon included reference to two more mines under construction in north-west B.C. The Conference Board of Can-ada has forecast that B.C.’s economy will “lead the country by a wide margin over the near term,” with unemployment declin-ing in 2016.

We’re at the mercy of global forces, but things could be a whole lot worse.

A recent headline in Victoria’s daily paper was entitled “A Brutal Learning Curve.”

Mayor Richard Atwell had a brutal learning curve because he had a brutal reception. A staff and council entrenched in an old regime were clearly not as receptive to change as the voters were. They wanted him gone as soon as possible without a chance to prove his worth. The spyware scandal and the investigation into it was confir-mation of that. It was a deliberate and devious plot; and it was only one of many ploys used in an attempt to ruin the new mayor.

Astoundingly, no one has yet been held account-able for it. Through all of it though, Atwell soldiers on. We have a mayor who wants the people to have a voice in an open government. It’s time for council and staff to collaborate.

May the New Year bring new hope that it comes to pass.

Dave FergusonSaanich

New Year brings new hope for mayor

I dread this time of the year, for the bad news is we have just received our notice and our property assessment has increased by over 13 per cent. The average increase in Saanich is 5.6 per cent, yet for the second year in a row our assessment is way above the average – last year our assessment went up over 14 per cent.

I know many of us – those who have the energy and stamina – will be going before the Property Assess-ment Review Panel and thence the Property Assessment Appeal Board to try to get their assessments reduced.

I did it last year. This year I am not sure I will be up to it. It seems like every year the process consumes a lot of energy and effort by both home owners and

agencies involved. I wonder how many appeals are handled every year and the related costs involved. Is there another way for our local governments to raise taxes?

Climate health is what really “lurks” in Walbran

According to Tom Fletcher, “an employee of the B.C. branch plant of Sierra Club lurks, apparently coordinating media and protesters” regarding log-ging in the Walbran Valley (Avatar Sequel Bombs in Walbran, Jan 12).

He’s referring to me. Far from lurking, I’m proud to be campaigning with Sierra Club B.C. to save some of the last significant stands of unprotected old-growth on Vancouver Island. (And, to correct but one of the many misleading or false claims in Fletch-er’s piece, Sierra Club B.C. is entirely independent.)

Fletcher’s diatribe reveals him as Teal Jones’ will-ing stenographer, uncritically regurgitating the log-ging company’s talking points. Fletcher and Teal Jones may believe it is morally and ecologically acceptable to cut down these magnificent trees and destroy complex, delicate ecosystems. Sierra Club B.C. doesn’t, and nor do the majority of British Columbians, who support concerted action to defend endangered old-growth trees, wildlife, a sta-ble climate, clean water and clean air.

British Columbians know that these things form the life-support system of our planet and support long-term prosperity and a diverse economy, includ-ing sustainable second-growth forestry for future generations. A growing list of independent reports from B.C.’s Auditor General, the Forest Practices Board and even a Liberal MLA highlight the need for urgent action to save our forests. It’s long past time for the provincial government to reverse the damage done when it gutted the rules governing log-ging. Fourteen years of trusting corporate interests to manage our forests with little or no oversight has got to stop.

Mark Worthing, Sierra Club B.C.

Proponent invited during the bid process Christine van ReeuwykBlack Press

The Capital Regional District’s Technical Oversight Panel doesn’t recommend the “deep shaft” project put for-ward last week, but wel-comes them to submit during the request for

proposals process. The CRD’s Core Area

Liquid Waste Manage-ment Committee will however see more information from its oversight panel.

Four TOP members visited the Noram Ver-treat technology site in Burnaby on Dec. 29, 2015 along with two consultants to better understand the deep shaft technology.

While the small-foot-print plants did con-ceptually fit on the two sites identified – Clover

Point in Victoria and Bullen Park in Esqui-malt – the panel found them not appropri-ate for the technology, Teresa Coady, chair of TOP told the CALWM Committee Jan. 13.

“The consensus is that this technology … is free to bid when we get to that stage, it is not appropriate for it to trigger what we would call an option six,” Coady told the CAL-WMC on Jan. 13, citing operational challenges with an underground

plant and trucks in resi-dential areas. There are also no built examples where a community of this size “entrusts its entire flow” to the tech-nology, she said.

“There is no guaran-tee that would work and it would need to be piloted,” Coady said. “It would have to be thor-oughly vetted if it was to be the main plant option because there is no precedent … It would be more appro-priate for one of the smaller plants.”

The TOP voiced sup-port for the technology but not on the sites in their application, and suggested it return dur-ing the bid process.

CRD director Richard Atwell, Saanich mayor, made the successful bid to have each mem-ber of the oversight panel provide an over-view of the deep shaft proposal.

“I think there’s a lot that needs to be written down,” he said.

Most board mem-bers saw no harm in

receiving further infor-mation, while others found it disruptive to the process.

“I find it highly unusual to make a request for each mem-ber to separately pro-vide a report,” said Oak Bay Mayor Nils Jensen. “The purpose of putting a wide range of people on a committee is to have that wholesome discussion … it under-mines the whole idea of committee work.”

“We assembled this group of expert advice to give us expert advice,” agreed direc-tor David Screech, View Royal mayor, adding it’s “completely out of line and insulting to our Technical Oversight Panel.

“Are we going to hear that every time some-one doesn’t like a rec-ommendation?”

There was a 5-1 vote by the TOP regarding at the recommendation to not support the deep shaft technology.

Vic Derman felt the decision needed some more “fulsome rea-sons” for not triggering a sixth option.

There is no harm in garnering more infor-mation, agreed com-mittee chair Lisa Helps, Victoria mayor.

“We’re always going to be adding more information, nothing’s going to be perfect.”

“The politics of this is, wit’s going to pass because otherwise you’re against informa-tion,” said Susan Brice.

The CALWMC

motion to have indi-vidual written submis-sions passed.

TOP will also prepare a binder – a summary document of all meet-ings with technology vendors – to be avail-able online.

“I went to one meet-ing where they heard presentations on eight or so leading-edge tech-nologies,” said Jensen after the meeting. “One, for instance, proposed a ship floating out in the Juan de Fuca area to hold the sewage treat-ment plant. They’ve looked at quite a num-ber of ingenious and innovative options.”

The B.C. government is investing an extra $3 mil-lion to expand a program that tailors cancer treat-ment to the genetic makeup of individual patients.

The B.C. Cancer Agency is ramping up its Per-sonalized Onco-Genomics (POG) project after seeing encouraging results, including reversal of some cancers thought to be all but untreatable. Researchers cautioned that the technique isn’t a cure for cancer, but it has been effective in identi-fying drugs that can reduce a life-threatening con-

dition to a manageable chronic illness.

Dr. Janessa Laskin, the cancer specialist in charge of the POG pro-gram, said three quar-ters of the oncologists in B.C. are now partici-pating in the program, selecting and referring patients from all over the province. The technique is “the future of oncol-ogy,” and the goal is to keep expanding it until every cancer patient can be assessed, Laskin said.

Premier Christy Clark and Health Minister Terry Lake announced the additional funds at the B.C. Cancer Agency in Van-couver Tuesday. Clark said the intent is to increase funding further in the coming years for a program that is attracting international interest and finan-cial support.

The agency highlighted patients helped by the technique. A 41-year-old non-smoker, Jennifer Strack described her shock at being diagnosed with aggressive lung cancer 18 months ago. Strack underwent five rounds of conventional chemo-therapy with little effect, as tumours grew in her lungs and spread to her liver.

The POG program identified one drug that was not effective, but Strack began taking another one that halted the growth and reduced the tumours. Laskin said the genetic testing identifies drug that would otherwise never be considered.

Zuri Scrivens was treated at age 33 for breast cancer, and when it reappeared two years later

she was enrolled in the POG program. Her cancer went into remission after a diabetes drug was used in combination with a breast cancer drug.

Since clinical trials began in 2012, more than 350 patients with 50 different types of cancer have had their genetic material studied in the program. With private donations through the B.C. Cancer Foundation, the new government funds and international grant support, the tar-get for POG is to enrol 2,000 patients in the next five years.

For more information on the program, visit its website at bccancerfoundation.com/POG.

CRD names Parcel Tax Roll Review Panel

The Capital Regional District board appointed its Parcel Tax Roll Review Panel last week.

Members include Esquimalt Mayor Barbara Des-jardins, CRD Board Chair; Mike Hicks, Director, Juan de Fuca Electoral Area; David Howe, Director, Southern Gulf Islands Electoral Area; and Wayne McIntyre, Director, Salt Spring Island Electoral Area.

The panel’s role is to adjudicate any complaints and authenticate the Parcel Tax Roll for taxa-tion purposes. The review is scheduled for noon, Wednesday, March 9 in Room 651 of the Capital Regional District offices, 625 Fisgard St., Victoria.

In 2015, parcel tax revenues comprised $2.4 mil-lion of the CRD’s requisition to the Property Taxa-tion Branch. In 2016, 26 CRD service areas will requisition revenues by parcel tax. The amount will be known in March.

Why the questionsDoc?

Occasionally a patient is uncomfortable when I ask personal questions. A column like this gives me a chance to explain the reason for unusual questions that an optometrist may ask you.

Every optometrist wants to know the reason for your visit. This is known as the “chief complaint.” However, to accurately determine if you are at risk of any eye diseases, a full “case history” has to be taken.

General health questions about you and your blood relations are important. Many illnesses can affect vision. You’d be wise to bring a list of any medications you take. Many medications have potential visual side effects.

Optometrists always ask about your occupation and hobbies to determine how you use your eyes. Then we can make suggestions as to which type of glasses and/or lenses would provide you with the best visual performance at work and play.

From A3 “CRD Sewage”

When the current sewage “option sets” are put forth to the public they will include differ-ences with respect to locations of treatment, levels of service for treated water, piping and pump-ing, infrastructure and opportu-nities for water reuse and heat recovery.

“We’re not at the end. We’re

not even at the beginning of the end. We’re making a teeny tiny decision … to go out and have conversation with our public,” said Saanich Coun. Susan Brice. “I really hoped that after hear-ing everything and not expect-ing perfection and knowing it’s fluid … that this would be some-thing that would be quite frankly unanimously supported.”

The public will be asked to

provide input on each of the option sets and to identify what is most important to them. Resi-dents who want to provide more detailed feedback will also be able to, said a CRD release.

Visit crd.bc.ca/project/waste-water-planning to view the option sets and provide feed-back.

From A1 “Mayor forecast”

The second EDPA town hall meeting is expected for February, following which an approach based on the results will lead council to decide the bylaw’s fate.

“I think it should be repealed and a new one drawn up based on first principles,” Atwell said.

The complete parking ban along Glendenning Road has also become a popular item with mem-bers of the public in Saanich. There is room for an affordable addition of some parking spots despite the will of Glendenning residents who spoke against additional spots, Atwell noted. A report is due sometime in 2016 that assesses the park-ing situation for all Mount Douglas Park entrances with a goal of alleviating concerns around Glen-

denning. The arrival of CAO Paul Thorklesson is also

intriguing for Atwell, who looks to form a work-ing relationship with the former Nanaimo CAO. Thorklesson’s hiring was a unanimous decision by council.

One thing Atwell is still waiting for is the hiring of a freedom of information and privacy officer, one of the chief recommendations in privacy com-missioner Elizabeth Denham’s April report that reviewed the illegality of Saanich staff installing spyware on Atwell’s and other computers.

“The public and council have not been given an update on the responses to Denham’s recommen-dations as of yet,” Atwell said. “That will be for the CAO to bring along.”

To many children, Bonnie Clark may have seemed like Santa Claus.

The Saanich resident would give out gifts to the children in the Paci-fica Housing complex where she lived for roughly a decade – and any other children she knew – for their birthdays or Christmas.

Though she didn’t have a lot of money, she would go to a dollar store and purchase books, jewelry boxes or knick knacks with inspira-tional sayings.

Each wrapped present was marked indicating whether it was for a boy or girl.

“All the kids in her complex that she lived in, she always made sure they got one,” said Langford resi-dent Pat Kennedy. He was a long-time friend of Clark, who passed away in September, four months shy of her 51st birthday.

To honour her legacy, Kennedy and some of Clark’s other friends raised more than $2,000 toward the construction of a new $10,000 play-ground and memorial bench in the housing complex. The current play-ground is 25 years old.

The playground being planed for

the Pacifica Housing complex on Irma Street and directly affects chil-dren in Saanich.

“We really share a lot of the val-ues that Bonnie has in terms of car-ing for children. We’re also incred-ibly inspired by the kindness that she touched people’s lives with,” said Sacha Sauvé, manager of fund development with Pacifica Hous-ing, who will be installing the play-ground.

“It’s not every day that you lose someone and people come to your door and want to put a bench in their name. It was such a touch-ing and inspiring gesture and we wanted to carry that.”

Kennedy recalled Clark as a “great person” who loved kids. “She’d do anything for everybody and she’d go out of her way to help anybody.”

The two met 35 years ago, when Kennedy and a friend were walking down the street and came across Clark and a friend. “We were think-ing about going to a bluegrass fes-tival, so we invited them to come with us,” he said, laughing. “We’ve been good friends ever since.”

The random act sparked a long friendship and over the years, they would get together for birthdays, Christmas and Thanksgiving, when

Bonnie would show up – presents in hand. They also attended bluegrass festivals and concerts together.

Kennedy was there for the rough times in Clark’s life as well.

When she was 25, she was involved in a physical altercation with her then-boyfriend Ernest Dixon in their home in Sechelt. She wound up breaking her neck and was rendered quadriplegic. Dixon was acquitted on the charge of aggravated assault and convicted of common assault.

Being in a wheelchair never slowed Clark down, recalled Ken-nedy. She worked as an advocate for people who were newly para-lyzed or victims of assault and helped victim services with coun-selling for years.

Pacifica Housing intends to con-sult with Clark’s friends and resi-dents of the housing complex to see what they would like to see in a playground. It hopes to have the project complete by the end of the summer.

Capital Regional District Notice to ElectorsWithin the Capital Regional DistrictAlternative Approval Process for CRD Bylaw 4042 - Authorizing the disposal of a portion of the Sooke Hills Wilderness Regional Park ReserveNotice is hereby given that the Board of Directors of the Capital Regional District (“CRD”) proposes to adopt Bylaw No. 4042, “Capital Regional District Disposition of Part of Sooke Hills Wilderness Regional Park Reserve Bylaw No. 1, 2015.” The purpose of Bylaw No. 4042 is to authorize the sale or exchange of a 902m2 (0.09 hectare) parcel in the Sooke Hills Regional Park Reserve, more particularly described as that portion of Lot 21, District Lot 8, Block 453 and Block 352, Malahat District, Plan VIP84067. The intention is to exchange this parcel of land for a similarly sized and nearby parcel owned by the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure. This parcel will become dedicated road. This exchange is critical to complete the necessary land transactions to ensure that construction of the Sooke Hills Wilderness Trail is completed in 2017.Take further notice that the CRD may proceed with Bylaw No. 4042 unless at least 28,055 electors within the CRD indicate by signing the elector response forms, that the Board must obtain the assent of the electors by way of referendum before proceeding to adopt Bylaw No. 4042.The elector response form must be in the form as established by the CRD and forms are available from the CRD on request.

Parents in B.C. schools will soon have the option of introducing their kids to computer programming as early as Kindergarten to grade three.

Premier Christy Clark told a tech-nology conference in Vancouver Monday an introduction to cod-ing option will be available in some schools starting next September. It is expected to be available across the province within three years, and Clark said her goal is to make it mandatory for all students entering school.

Post-secondary technology pro-grams already include co-op job placements for 80 per cent of stu-dents, but any new programs will have to be 100 per cent co-op, Clark said.

The province and federal govern-ments also announced new funding to technology employers to help current and future workers upgrade their skills. Grants cover two thirds of training cost up to $10,000 per employee, and applications can be made at www.workbc.ca/canadabc-jobgrant

Inmates get trades trainingA pilot program in Kamloops has

graduated six provincial prison inmates, qualifying them to work as construction labourers when they are released.

Students learn skills such as oper-ating and maintaining small tools, scaffolding, reading blueprints, sur-veying, operating a mini-excavator and traffic control. They also receive level one first aid and construction safety training certification during a six-week course.

The program is offered by Thomp-son Rivers University for inmates at Kamloops Regional Correctional Cen-

tre. Inmates built a concrete founda-tion pad with drainage and roof that will house a portable sawmill.

The level one apprenticeship cre-dential and 4,000 work hours in a trade make them eligible for level two, when students can enrol in a Red Seal trade program such as car-pentry or plumbing.

Surge in urban housingHousing starts in B.C.'s urban

municipalities of more than 10,000 people ended 2015 with a jump of 26 per cent in December, according to the latest Statistics Canada figures.

B.C.'s increase was mostly in multi-family developments. Single detached housing starts were up only 3.5 per cent. B.C.'s housing surge went against the national trend, with housing starts down in seven provinces. Only B.C., Quebec and Manitoba saw growth in December, compared to a year earlier. Housing starts dropped 39 per cent in Ontario and 41 per cent in Alberta, where the oil price slump has hit hard.


Premier Christy Clark announces new programs at the province’s inaugural technology summit in Vancouver Jan. 18.

Coding to start in Kindergarten


Second-year University of Victoria Vikes swim-mer Ryan Howe met the required CIS champion-ship qualifying times in the 100-metre backstroke and 200m individual medley this weekend at the Simon Fraser University Dual hosted in Burnaby.

The SFU Clan came away victorious in the head-to-head dual, defeating the Vikes men in points, 145-104, and the women 165-87 in the final standings.

Howe, a St. Andrew’s School graduate, scored a first place time of 55.95 in the 100-metre back-

stroke and a second-place finish of 2:04.53 in the 200-metre for spots in the respective events at the upcoming CIS national championship, Feb. 26-28 in Quebec City, Que.

On the women’s side, fourth-year Vike Sarah Galbraith finished first in three events, the 100-metre breaststroke, 200-metre IM and the 50-metre freestyle. Second year Kaitlin Gervais also raced a first-place time of 4:29.22 in the 400-metre freestyle.

The Vikes men took home gold thanks to the

efforts of fourth year Aidan Thirkell in the 100 and 200-metre breaststroke with times of 1:04.11 and 2:22.22, respectively. Third year Evan Letke-man took home the best time in the 200-metre backstroke with 2:04.04.

Third-year Vikes standout Jon McKay missed action with his teammates this past weekend to race in the Arena Pro Swim Series in Austin, Tx., where he raced in the 200, 400, and 1500-metre freestyle as well as the 200-metre butterfly.

St. Andrew’s swimmer earns CIS qualificationVikes Shoot for the Cure Jan. 29 at CARSA gym

The UVic Vikes will host rival basketball team the UBC Thunder-birds in the 9th Annual Shoot for the Cure on Jan. 29.

The charity fund-raiser is a partnership with the CIS Women’s Basketball Coaches Association and the Canadian Breast Can-cer Foundation.

The Friday night game is the first of a double-header week-end of games and in-game activations and promotions will go to support and raise awareness for the Cana-dian Breast Cancer Foundation.

The Shoot for the Cure campaign has proven an overwhelm-ing success since it was launched in the fall of 2007 with over $886,000 in donations. This sea-son, for the fifth year in a row, all 47 CIS wom-en’s basketball schools are set to participate in the program.

At the 2015 CIS championship in Que-bec City last March, the WBCA presented a cheque for $102,312.05 to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation with a 2014-15 season total of $125,361.76.

Take the survey:


Parents in B.C. schools will soon have the option of introducing their kids to computer programming as early as Kindergarten to grade three.

Premier Christy Clark told a tech-nology conference in Vancouver Monday an introduction to cod-ing option will be available in some schools starting next September. It is expected to be available across the province within three years, and Clark said her goal is to make it mandatory for all students entering school.

Post-secondary technology pro-grams already include co-op job placements for 80 per cent of stu-dents, but any new programs will have to be 100 per cent co-op, Clark said.

The province and federal govern-ments also announced new funding to technology employers to help current and future workers upgrade their skills. Grants cover two thirds of training cost up to $10,000 per employee, and applications can be made at www.workbc.ca/canadabc-jobgrant

Inmates get trades trainingA pilot program in Kamloops has

graduated six provincial prison inmates, qualifying them to work as construction labourers when they are released.

Students learn skills such as oper-ating and maintaining small tools, scaffolding, reading blueprints, sur-veying, operating a mini-excavator and traffic control. They also receive level one first aid and construction safety training certification during a six-week course.

The program is offered by Thomp-son Rivers University for inmates at Kamloops Regional Correctional Cen-

tre. Inmates built a concrete founda-tion pad with drainage and roof that will house a portable sawmill.

The level one apprenticeship cre-dential and 4,000 work hours in a trade make them eligible for level two, when students can enrol in a Red Seal trade program such as car-pentry or plumbing.

Surge in urban housingHousing starts in B.C.'s urban

municipalities of more than 10,000 people ended 2015 with a jump of 26 per cent in December, according to the latest Statistics Canada figures.

B.C.'s increase was mostly in multi-family developments. Single detached housing starts were up only 3.5 per cent. B.C.'s housing surge went against the national trend, with housing starts down in seven provinces. Only B.C., Quebec and Manitoba saw growth in December, compared to a year earlier. Housing starts dropped 39 per cent in Ontario and 41 per cent in Alberta, where the oil price slump has hit hard.


Premier Christy Clark announces new programs at the province’s inaugural technology summit in Vancouver Jan. 18.
