Heritage Museum and Historic Village has received a substantial amount of funding for some well deserved renovations and im-provements.

Funding, around $41,000, for the proj-

ect comes from the Job Creation Partner-ship. The Job Creation Partnership is a branch of British Columbia’s Community and Em-ployer Partnerships which aim to increase employability and job creation through British Columbia.

Renovations are to be completed by a

group of four work-ers who will gain real-world job experience and skill building.

Improvements to the buildings will include wheelchair accessible ramps to the OK Cafe, Reimer residence and Royal Bank building in the historic village. New paint, windows and doors will also

be installed as well as a limestone pathway connecting the village buildings and museum.

Vanderhoof mayor Gerry Theissen said of the renovations “The Job Creation Partner-ship is a welcome pro-gram for the District of Vanderhoof. There are many local initiatives in

our community which have operated on purely volunteer help and this project will help us, as a community, to build capacity and give the participants some great work experience.”

The project is slated to take place over a 22-week period this sum-mer.

PROFILES OF EXCELLENCE

Just one of the many valuable services provided by Progressive Employment Services supports both job seekers and employers in a new and innovative way. Workers On Call is an enhanced service designed to help connect employers with workers for short-term assignments.

Shelley Froese, Workers On Call coordinator, acts as a liaison between employers and clients saving employers time and money by giving them access to an existing database of workers. Clients submit their resume and sign a consent form allowing potential employers to view their information. When employers have a short-term employment need they simply submit a Worker Request Form giving details such as position,

duration, quali� cations, pay, equipment required, etc. The coordinator then shares resumes that meet the required quali� cations with the employer and provides any assistance needed to help make the match. Finding an appropriate candidate, the employer may proceed to make the hire.

Once the short-term employment is � nished, the coordinator follows up with the employer to gather feedback and continues to make periodic contact with the clients to ensure that they are still available for work and that their resumes are up to date.

Call 250-567-5785 (toll free at 866-567-7375) or stop into our of� ce at 139 First Street East, Vanderhoof for more information or to see how the Worker’s on Call program could help you!

Hoban Construction Ltd., a company based out of Vernon, B.C., has been given the contract for a new 2.3 km passing lane on the westbound portion of Highway 16.

The new passing lane will be built between Prince George and Vanderhoof, west of Barsness Road.

The proposed passing lane will cost around $2.6 million to construct. Nechako Lakes MLA John Rustad said that the passing lane will improve overall safety of the highway. “This passing lane on Highway 16 will provide much safer opportunities for commercial and personal traf� c to pass other vehicles on this busy stretch of highway,” Rustad said in a press release.

Construction of the new passing lane is slated to be � nished by September 2014.

The Vanderhoof Children’s Theatre (VCT) is in the last stages of preparation as they prepare to travel all the way to Disneyland in California on July 9.

The VCT has been fundraising for the trip for ten months in order

to raise the over $80,000 necessary to � y 40 people, 28 of them kids, to California.

The purpose of the international trip is to attend theatre workshops that take place year round at Dis-neyland.

The idea to travel to Disney-land came from Richard Wruth one night while relaxing poolside

after a performance in Kelowna and wondering when they would get to make another trip. “I said well what about Disneyland? They offer workshops for groups like ours,” Wruth said. Other parents involved with the VCT liked the idea and the trip planning began.

Group members will leave on the 9 and return on the 17.

OPINIONExpress

Black Press

July 1 was Canada’s 147th birthday. This country now has a lengthy history as an independent nation.

For most of the past 147 years, Canada has been respectful of other countries and of its wide variety of people, who come from widely disparate backgrounds and traditions.

There are some signi� cant exceptions however, which must be stated up front. Canada has done a generally poor job in maintaining good relations with the aboriginal people who were here before any immigrants came from offshore. For the � rst 100 years of our inde-pendence, there were ongoing efforts to assimilate them, take away their land, unique cultures and heritage, and subjugate them. This was a holdover of the British approach to colonialism, and was actually quite similar to what the British attempted in other parts of the world.

It is only in recent years that more Canadians have started to ap-preciate the unique perspective that First Nations people bring to this country. Here in B.C., where we have a wide variety of very different First Nations groups, most of whom have no treaties, First Nations issues are front and centre, as was demonstrated on Thursday by a Su-preme Court of Canada decision on aboriginal title, brought forward by the Tsilhqot’in Nation.

Thankfully, the relationship in Langley between the community at large and our two First Nations, the Kwantlen and Katzie, is generally positive and is one of mutual respect.

The other blot on our history comes in the treatment of Asians, particularly the Japanese during the Second World War. While there have been apologies and � nancial settlements, that aspect of our his-tory is a shameful one — as were the discriminatory tactics used to keep out prospective immigrants from China and India.

What Canada does do well, however, is to learn from our past mistakes. This country has always been a grouping of very differ-ent people. In 1867, it was the aboriginal people, those of French background, and those of British background, including descendants of former Americans who disagreed with the American Revolution.

Since that time, people came to help populate the wide-open spac-es in the country, and they have come from all over the world. At � rst, most came from Europe and the United States. There were also early

Canada — a great country develops from many di� er-ing backgrounds

settlers of Chinese and Japanese backgrounds.

In the past 50 years, the doors have been opened wider for people from all over — although it is still dif� cult to come here (even as a vis-

itor) from a poorer country, some-thing Canada needs to consider more deeply and thoughtfully.

Together, these diverse peoples have forged a country respectful of religions, traditions and cultures;

committed to � ght injustices; eco-nomically strong and well-posi-tioned — and one of the best places in the world to live.

Happy Birthday, Canada.

On Saturday June 21st, 2014, members of the Prince George RCMP’s Crime Reduction Team arrest-ed three men after they observed what appeared to be a drug transaction in the parking lot of a local restaurant on Central Street in the City.

The 45 year old male driver was found in posses-sion of more than an ounce of crack cocaine, more than an ounce of methamphetamine, and numerous pre-packaged � aps of heroin. The 22 year old male passenger was found in possession of a signi� cant amount of cash. A 29 year old Prince George resident formerly from Quesnel was located inside the restau-rant in possession of a large amount of cash and � ve cellular telephones.

Police have released two of the men by way of Promise to Appear documents and will be forwarding a number of drug related charges to Federal Crown Counsel. One man was released without charge, al-

though charges are being contemplated pending fur-ther investigation.

The Prince George RCMP is committed to enforce-ment and prevention initiatives that combat the posses-sion and sale of drugs in the community. It is through these types of proactive investigations that criminal drug activity is effectively reduced.

If you have any information about illegal drug ac-tivity in the Prince George area, please contact the Prince George RCMP at (250)561-3300 or anony-mously contact Crime Stoppers at 1(800)222-8477, online at www.pgcrimestoppers.bc.ca (English only), or Text-A-Tip to CRIMES (274637) using keyword “pgtips”. You do not have to reveal your identity to Crime Stoppers. If you provide information that leads to an arrest or the recovery of stolen property or the seizure of illicit drugs, you could be eligible for a cash reward.

Testifying at a B.C. Supreme Court trial Thursday afternoon, an RCMP of� cer regular-ly on the beat in down-town Prince George said he saw and spoke with murder victim Jill Stuchenko, 35, for the last time in October 2009.

RCMP Const. Mike Hansen, a member in Prince George since 1995, said he’d known Stuchenko for sev-eral years but had not seen her for some time when he noticed her on Oct. 9, 2009 in the early evening, walking near Queensway.  Her remains were found in a gravel pit off Otway Road on Oct. 26, 2009.

The two had a three- to � ve-minute “short conversation”, he said, adding she was making her way on foot head-ing towards Victoria Street.

Cody Alan Lege-bokoff, 24, is charged with the murders of Stuchenko and three other area women, Loren Leslie, Cynthia Maas and Natasha Montgomery. His tri-al, before a 14-person jury, began June 2.

Asked how he knew Stuchenko, the of� cer said she was “one of the street workers.”

He usually saw her in the vicinity of Juni-per Street and the VLA area on streets such as Pine and Oak, he said.

During cross ex-amination, defence

Alleged killer Cody Alan Legebokoff (left) and victim Jill Stuchenko (right).

lawyer James Heller re-ferred Hansen to an in-terview he had given an RCMP colleague about Stuchenko after her body was discovered. He agreed he’d told the of� cer that Stuchenko was usually talkative and outgoing but on this � nal occasion was not.

“You knew she was a drug user?” asked Heller.

“Not directly … but I assumed so,” said Han-sen.

“The last time you saw her, she wasn’t her-self so to speak?”

Hansen agreed she was not.

In other testimony heard Thursday, RCMP. Sgt. John Took, a fo-rensic identi� cation specialist, described his involvement in an April 13-16, 2011 search of a Carney Street dwelling where an earlier wit-ness said he � rst met Legebokoff (he was not named as a tenant).

The of� cer said he and his team used white

light and coloured la-sers in the thorough ex-amination of the prem-ises.

Shown a booklet of photographs taken by Cpl. Kimberley Trem-blay (she testi� ed ear-lier in the week), Took told the court he took measurements at the scene of all the rooms, made sketches of both � oors of the house and later made them into computer generated diagrams.

The of� cer said they used white light, bright forensic light, ultravio-let and blue lights, fo-rensic lasers, all differ-ent colours “as you see on T.V.” By darkening the room and using dif-ferent light techniques and special goggles, it is possible to “better see things” without the dis-tractions, he said.

The same approach was used upstairs and downstairs, he testi� ed.

“[We] searched ev-ery room and every sur-face of that residence.”

Samples were taken to test for the potential of any blood evidence, in some cases  taking cuttings of carpet, he said.

THE FOOD BANK... is in serious need

of food donations. Speci� cally the fol-lowing is needed:

Canned vegetables, meat, � sh, canned milk, sugar, pasta,

pasta sauces, soups (we have enough mushroom soup),

toilet tissue.

“Pull!” That was the sound that echoed out across the Nechako Val-ley Sports Association’s (NVSA) shooting range as marksmen took aim at both skeet targets and cancer.

The second annual take a shot at cancer tournament took place at the NVSA shooting range on June 22 and was attended by over two dozen competitors and supporters.

Take a shot at can-cer is a skeet-shooting competition organized by the NVSA in support of St. John Hospital’s oncology department.

In it’s inaugural tournament last year, the competition raised a total of $5,000 for the hospital. This year’s tournament raised near-ly $8,000.

The tournament started at 10 a.m. and ran until 2 p.m.

Marksmen had a handful of different sta-tions to choose from, each with a unique challenge.

The tournament con-sisted of two categories of competition, the � rst being a men and wom-en’s adult competition and the second being a men’s junior competi-

Proper nutrition and eating healthy on a small budget can be hard.The most common complaint I hear about eating healthy is that it is expensive, and yes.. it can be.. especially if you are eating a gluten free organic creamed non GMO raspberry dairy free coconut based cheesecake everyday… it’s about eating healthy and having treats in moderation… eating a ‘healthy cake’ every day is not eating healthy..let’s be frank… its stuf� ng your face with deliciousness to compensate for the lack of excitotoxins in most preserved foods. What complicates matters is the variety of foods we have before us and the overabundance of cheap convenient foods where some people might stock pile $1 dollar frozen dinners that have enough sodium to kill an elephant. The good news is, here are some great ideas to keep eating well under a budget :1. Plan shopping trips in advance – that means: make a shopping list ahead of time and stick to it, NEVER go shopping hungry.. or you will leave the store with all your favorite snack foods, fast foods, and treats… worse.. you’ll already be eating them before you have a chance to decide to put them back.2. Shopping lists work – eat more greens – aside from health bene� ts they tend to be cost effective, even more so if you can grow your own.3. Choose fresh over canned – canned foods tend to have preservatives, salt, sugars, ‘spices’ and other attributes, the canning process also takes a lot of nutritional content away from food and leaves you hungry or unsatis� ed… (frozen is a great alternative for winter as foods tend to be picked fresh and then frozen)4. If you eat grains, go for whole grains which means less processing and more nutritional content5. Avoid the sugar free, fat free, low fat etc foods, carbonated beverages, as they are empty calories and the sugar free stuff tends to increase appetite and cravings for.. you guessed it… sweetsStay tunes next week for more Healthy eating on a budget tips

Prairiedale School was one of the oldest schools in the Nechako region. This year Prai-riedale closed its doors for good after nearly a century in operation. The now defunct school opened in 1924 and is the subject of a new ret-rospective book titled Prairiedale: The Little School that Was. The book was put together by Myrna Bailey, a for-mer custodian of Prai-riedale.

“I was very teary-eyed about the school closing,” Bailey said. “Five generations of families have gone through the school.”

Prairiedale’s closure comes after a decline in students throughout the region. Bailey says she believes the school is being closed because of a need to increase the number of students attending schools in downtown Vanderhoof. “The schools in town are low on students so they want to � ll them up.”

The response to Bai-ley’s retrospective has been overwhelming. She has seen � nancial support from the school district which helped to cover printing costs. Dozens of former stu-dents and faculty also contributed content to the book.

It’s not just the stu-dents and alumni that are getting teary-eyed over the school’s clo-sure, but the faculty too, “some of the teachers have been there for over 20 years,” Bailey said.

Bailey says that this book really is more than just a history of a school, but is rather a history of the Prairie-dale area all together. “There are so many sto-ries to be told about it.”

All proceeds from books sales will go to a bursary fund given out to Alumni of Prairie-dale. The bursary will be active until 2026, when the last Prairie-dale students graduate from high school.

The Fun PageARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20Your impulsive nature is apparent this week, Aries. While this nature has often served you well, it’s still a smart move to carefully consider all angles before making any big decisions.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21Taurus, the goal this week is to find a happy medium where you can help others but remain true to yourself. It may take a little juggling, but you can handle it.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Gemini, although you are initially willing to go along with the group’s plans, in the long run you want to set off in your own direction. A few stragglers may join you.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22Cancer, professional obligations may prevent you from spending time with loved ones, but only if you let them. Let higher-ups know where your priorities lie.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23Leo, share your emotions with a friend, especially if the friendship does not seem to be going in the direction you had hoped. Keep the lines of communication open at all times.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22Virgo, you may think your intentions are obvious to others, but sometimes you send mixed signals. You may have to be more concise to achieve your desired results.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23Take the high road, Libra. Leading by example has always been your forte, and taking the high road now is a great example to set for those around you.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22It can be quite difficult to keep your cool when you are feeling emotional, Scorpio. Channel any nervous energy you have into a productive project this week.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21Sagittarius, you are on a quest for a deep connection. You will not be content with mere friendship, but desire something that is more intimate and meaningful.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20You are in high demand this week, Capricorn. You have the ability to get things done when others struggle with similar tasks. Keep up the good work.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Aquarius, you just may find yourself on shaky ground while juggling multiple responsibilities this week. Don’t let the stress of this juggling act get the better of you.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20Pisces, you find yourself face-to-face with your biggest fears this week. Draw on your inner strength and you will conquer any obstacle.
