Alexis Creek RCMP investigate shots fired

Police are investigating after shots were fired Saturday on the Anaham Reserve.

While officers were at Anaham Saturday evening recovering a Po-laris ATV stolen from Barney’s Resort at Puntzi Lake, shots were fired in the vicinity, said Cpl. Mur-ray McNeil, acting sergeant at the Alexis Creek RCMP detachment.

“There’s nothing to indicate shots were fired at the officer, but he definitely heard the shots,” Mc-

Neil told the Tribune Tuesday. Police returned Sunday to Ana-

ham to further investigate and arrested a person with three out-standing warrants in Williams Lake and transported him to Wil-liams Lake.

Police also pursued two per-sons of interest on an ATV who wouldn’t stop when officers at-tempted to stop them.

“They continued to race around the reserve on the ATV quite dan-gerously,” McNeil said.

An RCMP helicopter from Ka-mloops, brought in to help search

for two trucks that were stolen last week, was used to assist tracking the two suspects on the ATV.

After an hour of pursuit, the suspects stopped the ATV because of what is believed to be mechani-cal difficulties.

They fled on foot, were tracked with the use of a police dog from Williams Lake and arrested with-out incident.

Both suspects were known to police.

The driver of the quad was charged with dangerous operation of a motor vehicle and flight from

police.When the dog handler was

pursuing the suspects, he found a loaded rifle with ammunition near the abandoned ATV.

Police seized the rifle and are in-vestigating, McNeil said.

“While we were following the ATV we did not see a rifle so we are just investigating what con-nection the rifle has with the two individuals on the ATV and also looking at the rifle as a potential lead on the shots fired the previ-ous evening.”

As Atlantic Power seeks permission to burn a higher percent-age of rail ties in its Williams Lake Power Plant, Tribune reporter Monica Lamb-Yorski (MLY) contacted a power plant in the U.S.

During a phone in-terview plant manager Mark Paitl and air control quality envi-ronmental analyst Tina Ball at Excel Energy’s French Island Gener-ating Plant (FIGP) in La Crosse, Wisconsin, a waste fired electrical power station that has been using rail ties as fuel for 20 years, an-swered her questions. MLY: How long have

you been using rail ties for fuel in your plant and to what per cent? FIGP: At least 20

years. We started out with a small per cent

our air permit didn’t specify what percent-age we could burn, we just had to record what percentage it was. As our sawmills closed or took their bark to other sources, such as landscape material, I needed another source to replace that such as wood waste or rail ties. We slowly increased our percentage of rail ties to where 50 to 60 per cent of our wood waste total is shredded rail ties.MLY: Are you

shredding the rail ties on site?FIGP: No. There is

a facility about a half mile away from our plant that the ties come in by truck or rail and are off-loaded. They have a grinder there where they grind them, remove all the metal and then put them in a shed that has a black top base and a cover

over it. One of their stipulations is they can store the whole ties on the ground but once they grind them they

have to be stored un-derneath the storage building.MLY: How close is

your plant to residen-

tial areas?FIGP: We are actu-

ally right on the Black River in the back wa-ters of the Mississippi

River on the point of French Island. We have residences across the river about a block and a half away and then the residential area starts a block from where the grinder/shredder is lo-cated. There’s nothing between that facility and ours. MLY: When you

went to burning more rail ties is that some-thing you had to get approval for from the regulators?FIGP: We had to

get approval to burn the rail ties and within that approval there was no limit because we’d proven by stack testing that there was no per-centage if we wanted to go more or less on that. MLY: What is the

standard for emissions?FIGP: The State of

Wisconsin standard for burning wood waste only. But we also burn refuse derived fuel. We

take our cross county garbage and turn it into waste and into a fuel. When we burn that fuel we have to follow fed-eral standards.MLY: Are you self-

regulating the emis-sions?FIGP: No we have

an outside stack test firm come in and they do annual stack tests on our emissions and then the other pol-lutants we have are monitored through continuous emissions monitoring, where we have instruments that we have to have an out-side firm come in every year to check that they are working. We sub-mit to the agencies a quarterly, semi-annual and annual report of our emissions along with the annual stack test.

The Slumber Lodge’s owner said he plans to appeal a de-molition order issued by the city.

“I have someone who is willing to move in and try to make a business of it for me,” said the 86-year-old owner, John Car-houn, from his home in Vancouver, noting the motel is well-built and worth fixing up.

“We are ready to spend money on it,” he said. “We have a building permit ap-plication in to get it back to operation as

soon as possible.” Carhoun said it is

better to fix it up than tear it down and have an empty lot.

“It’s never going to be a top of the class motel, but it’s a good sound building and wasn’t cheaply built.”

Carhoun spent 20 years in Prince George and built mo-tels there and has ex-perience in the busi-ness.

He purchased the Slumber Lodge in 1996 for his daugh-ters.

At the regular council meeting July 21, council voted in favour of the demoli-

tion order.Upon receipt of the

order by registered mail, Carhoun has 14 days to respond.

Since June 2012 the Slumber Lodge has been boarded up af-ter the city made the request.

Energy plant shares experience with burning rail tiesMonica Lamb-YorskiStaff Writer

See PLANTPage A4

MLY: What is the volume of rail ties you are burning in a year?

FIGP: In the last cou-ple of years we’ve been between 30,000 and 37,000 tons a year.

MLY: Do you have any pollution control equipment that is part of the operation?

FIGP: We have a bag house we installed in 2000 to catch particu-late.

MLY: Have you ever had concerns from resi-dents?

FIGP: We at the plant have not had con-cerns but I know they’ve had some over at the grinding facility about dust and odour. They are also regulated with their storm water, plants and also the State of Wiscon-sin visits them to make sure they are meeting their permits.

MLY: Did the in-crease of rail ties as fuel change the nature of the ash in anyway?

FIGP: We sample our ash quarterly and annually and with the increase in railway tie burn we did not see a change at all.

MLY: What are the measurements you use

to test for emissions and the levels they have to be below.

FIGP: The main driver is the dioxins and furans so we need to be below 30 mg by stan-dard per cubic metre of air.

MLY: Have you seen any change in emissions from burning rail ties to meet that standard?

FIGP: No and those limits are waste combus-tion limits not for burn-ing rail ties but because we burn garbage at the plant as well.

MLY: How is gar-bage used as fuel?

FIGP: It’s processed into refuse-derived fuel

(RDF) — a fluffy light burnable fuel. It’s com-prised mostly of paper, cardboard, those kinds of things.

MLY: Where does the waste come from?

FIGP: Right from the curb side pickup to the plant where we process it and burn it. The county also has curb side recy-cling so they do recycle ahead of the material be-ing brought to the plant. So what we do is remove the non burnables, we remove any metals, and aluminum still with the products. Then we make the RDF and blow that into our boilers with our wood waste.

MLY: How much

of the volume does the RDF comprise?

FIGP: Typically 50 per cent of our fuel mix, is RDF and the remain-der is wood waste and half of that is rail ties.

MLY: Is the ash from the plant used for any-thing and is it covered?

FIGP: We have a cell that our ash goes into and it is covered daily. Our other plant that burns wood waste with rail ties they have been reutiliz-ing their ash for six or seven years. Because of the garbage component, the ash at this plant isn’t as homogeneous as the state would like for re-use so we don’t.

MLY: Is the creosote from the rail ties still in the shavings when they arrive at the plant?

FIGP: There is no way to take it off so it definitely comes in with

the ties, but it’s so vola-tile that it burns up and is destroyed in the com-bustion process.

MLY: Have you had concerns about creosote from the public.

FIGP: Several years ago at our other plant when we first started burning rail ties, we had the same concerns about how different is it than wood waste. We did some stack testing back then comparing a wood tie mixture to a wood only mixture and there was no difference in emissions. In fact in the wood tie mixture we had saw better emissions in some things we were looking for just because they burn hotter. The ties are drier and with the creosote being so volatile, actually make a nicer fuel than straight wood waste.

Plant uses bag house to contain particulates

Photo submittedThe Excel Energy French Island plant (pictured) has been burning rail ties for 20 years. A similar proposal has been put forward by Atlantic Power in Williams Lake.

Conservative leader Stephen Harper prom-ised an expanded tax break for hiring ap-prentices Monday, as parties started an ex-tended summer elec-tion campaign.

Campaigning in La-val, Quebec, Harper announced that if his government is re-elect-ed Oct. 19, employers will receive a credit up to $2,500 a year for wages paid to quali-fying apprentices for all four years of their training. Harper’s Conservatives estab-lished the program in 2006, with a credit of up to $2,000 per year for the first two years, to encourage hiring and training.

NDP leader Thom-as Mulcair began his campaign emphasiz-

ing signs of weakness in the Canadian econ-omy, with the latest statistics showing the economy contracting in the first five months of the year.

“Wages are falling, incomes are stagnant, and household debt is skyrocketing,” Mul-cair said at his cam-

paign kickoff in Hull, Quebec. “Middle-class families are working harder than ever, and can’t get ahead.”

Liberal leader Jus-tin Trudeau has also focused his campaign on middle-class vot-ers, with a central policy of reducing tax on middle income and

increasing it for the top one per cent of in-come earners.

Green Party leader Elizabeth May began the campaign in her home riding of Saan-ich-Gulf Islands. Her economic platform also calls for tax in-creases for the high-est income earners, as well as increasing corporate income tax rates to 2008 levels.

The early election call increases spending limits for parties and caps it for third-party advertisers such as la-bour unions that have been targeting Harper. It also leaves some rid-ings without nominat-ed candidates.

Another change is in debate formats, as first Harper and then Mulcair declined the traditional debate or-ganized by TV net-works. The first na-

tional debate is set for Thursday, Aug. 6, hosted by Maclean’s magazine.

Among the topics will be sharp differ-ences over Canada’s role in the interna-tional military action against Islamic State terrorists in Iraq and Syria. Harper renewed Canada’s commitment to maintain six fighter jets and special forces support in one of his last acts before calling the election.

Both the NDP and Liberals are promis-ing to end Canadian bombing of Islamic State positions. Mul-cair would withdraw all military personnel from Iraq and Syria, while Trudeau sup-ports keeping military trainers in place, with both promising in-creased humanitarian aid.

Algae bloom at Horse Lake doesn’t pose risk to humansInterior Health

wishes to advise users of Horse Lake, located southeast of 100 Mile House, that the cur-rent algae bloom does not pose risk to human health at this time.

This determination has been made follow-ing testing of the water which revealed the al-gae bloom is not pro-ducing chemicals that would impact human health at this time. In-terior Health will con-tinue to monitor as the bloom is still develop-ing and provide updates

if there are any changes. As the algal bloom

grows and changes, it may start producing toxin.

For this reason we encourage people to use the precautionary prin-ciple and avoid surface water ingestion.

Residents using sur-face water are advised to follow safe drinking water guidelines which include disinfection and filtration before use. This removes naturally occurring germs such as bacteria, viruses and parasites. Residents un-

able to treat their water should boil all water used for drinking, wash-ing of fresh fruits and vegetables and making ice for one minute or use water from an alter-nate potable (drinkable) water source.

Although currently no toxin has been de-tected, if the situation changes and water be-comes contaminated with algal toxin, boil-ing the water will not remove the toxin and an alternate source (bottled water) must be used.

Additional informa-tion on blue-green al-gae blooms is available

at http://www.health-linkbc.ca/healthfiles/hfile47.stm.

Conservative Party of Canada photoPrime Minister Stephen Harper announces dissolution of Parliament at Rideau Hall, Ottawa, for a federal election Oct. 19.

Long election season ahead

As expected, Prime Minister Ste-phen Harper put Canada offi-cially into the election mode on

Sunday. It’s going to be a long 11 weeks until election day and I’m not looking forward to the barrage of attack ads we’ll be subjected to.

They get tiresome. Why can’t each party just tell us how they could run the country so we could make an intelligent choice rather than being besieged with propaganda? This business of trying to discredit others because you disagree is childish.

If you can’t make a good case for your side of an argument without calling down the other guys, maybe it’s because you have

nothing good to say about your-self or your side. Politicians may believe the only way to get up the ladder is to push everyone else off,

but it’s a poor way to run a democracy.What does the ad being shown on TV ad

nauseam noting that Justin Trudeau has nice hair, but he “Just isn’t ready” to be our leader prove?

Mr. Harper’s hair isn’t so bad either but there are people who think he’s passed his best before date.

According to the Globe and Mail, calling the election early will cost an extra $125 mil-lion, a goodly sum of that from taxpayers’ pockets.

***Three people who will benefit from the

early dissolution of Parliament are suspend-ed senators Mike Duffy, Pamela Wallin and Patrick Brazeau. The rules say they were only suspended while the House was sitting so they will be back on salary now. Both Duffy and Brazeau face charges in court.

***It was comforting to see the Martin Mars

water bomber finally in action but aircraft fighting wild fires in the Kelowna area were grounded because someone was flying drones in their fire fighting space. Would that someone be ignorant or stupid?

***Haven’t heard any city person expressing

delight over the new community mailboxes.Diana French is a freelance columnist for

Mount Polley, one year later

It’s been a year since our commu-nity learned about a large and un-precedented breach at the Mount

Polley Mine tailings storage facility. The news shook everyone — residents, First Nations, labour, industry and government alike. While the complete restoration of the area will take years to complete, significant progress has been made on environmental mitigation and remediation over the past year. This is all outlined in the One-Year Remediation Report released this week by our government.

To date, we consider these Phase 1 ac-tivities complete or suitably initiated: safety (e.g., woody debris removed from

Quesnel Lake); containment of tailings; monitor-ing; protection of archaeological resources; protec-tion of fish; ero-sion mitigation;

water treatment; and reporting. One of these actions was to ensure the water qual-ity in Quesnel Lake met provincial water quality guidelines, which has occurred.

Phase 2 will focus on remediation through summer 2016 and beyond, and will include an ecological and human health risk assessment. We will continue to work closely with First Nations, the lo-cal communities and the company to en-sure a comprehensive long-term plan for monitoring, remediation and restoration is implemented.

Throughout this careful process of cleanup, investigation and remediation, lo-cal families have had to cope with the shut-down of the mill and the impact on their jobs and livelihoods. I know that the recent announcement of the mine’s re-start — with conditions — has been welcome news for our communities of Likely, Williams Lake, and 100 Mile House. We all look forward to seeing the mine up and running sometime within the next month.

In the meantime, we want to hear from you. The Post Event Environmental Im-pact Assessment Report is now posted online at http://www.env.gov.bc.ca/eemp/incidents/2014/mount-polley/. I encourage you to have a look and give your feedback.

B.C. is worth a closer look

It’s another beautiful day today in beau-tiful B.C., appropriate, we think, following B.C. Day.

We hope you had a pleasant long week-end, and enjoyed B.C. in your own unique way.

From what we’re told, more people are getting out and about in B.C. this summer than in recent years.

Sunny skies, festival season, high gas pric-es and a weak loonie are some of the rea-sons why so many people might be choosing to stay-cation this summer.

Or it could just be that our province is a pretty special place to be. We hope many of you found time during the long weekend to stroll, sight-see and explore.

Because there’s so much B.C. that awaits just outside our doors, beckoning us to come out and play.

Consider that the most worldly traveller will never come close to seeing all that the Earth has to offer — a lifetime isn’t nearly enough time to visit every nook and cranny

in Canada, B.C., or even the Cariboo Chil-cotin.

But it’s enough time to start looking.British Columbia means a lot of things.

It’s a place. It’s 4.6 million people. It’s what the provincial government is or isn’t doing, and the state of the economy, and the news of the day, and a 144-year history and an untold future.

It’s all of those things and it can be more, still, and we can make our province a better place with our votes, our work, our words and our actions. A lot of B.C., though, is perfect just the way it is. We have a respon-sibility of stewardship, but with that comes the freedom to experience this vast and var-iegated land that belongs to all of us and none of us.

On B.C. Day or on any day, we should be proud of our province. And whenever we feel lucky to live here in beautiful B.C., it’s worth taking a look around, reminding our-selves why.

Question of the weekPrecious wildlife deserves more protection

Editor:

It is with terrible sadness that I have been told that one of our rarest species in Canada, the badger, has been thoughtlessly killed by a bow-hunter.

This precious species which is

critically endangered with less than 300 individuals in the prov-ince is on the brink of extinction here and thanks to this heinous act will no longer be able to feed her babies or reproduce ever again.

I have reported this to our

local conservation officer and hope the appropriate conse-quences will be forth-coming.

Please give our precious wild-life the protection it needs.

Connie Jones150 Mile House

Election crucial for civilizationEditor:

Were slaves ever good for their masters; master’s good for their slaves?

One didn’t own oneself; one was a masters man or woman.

Evolving democratic concepts and attitudes challenge lingering traditional autocratic presupposi-tions.

Equality democratically frees master/slave dominant/submissive relationships. Freedom belongs to every person by virtue of their common humanity in a democrat-ic society.

Democracy affirms our fun-damental human equality in our common humanity.

In a democratic era, we can func-tion only as equals among equals. Extremely unequal is one per cent owning more global wealth than 99 per cent by 2016 (the U.S. nears 1/10 of one per cent). We all suffer from inequality.

Beyond incomplete abolition of slavery, women/children’s inequal-

ity, social injustice, unnecessary global wars ... imposed poverty ... master oligarchs undermine de-mocracy by growing global in-equality.

Eight of 11 richest most power-ful global corporations are titanic fossil-fuel extractors producing submissive extinction.

Without interest in mitigating fossil-fuel extraction for the com-mon good, Canadian and Ameri-can Petroleum Producers (oil and gas) deceptively promise “prosper-ity.”

We are fast tracked into irrevers-ible catastrophic climate change. Discounted valid climate science is largely ignored against common sense for uncommon profit. Fatih Birol (Chief Economist, Inter-national Energy Agency) says, in 2017, the door closes for staying below 2C.

Beginning now (2015-2030), di-vesting from fossil-fuel energy and investing in non-polluting renew-able energy is critical.

Oligarchs deny environmen-

tal limits of greenhouse gases produced from burning fossil-fuels(coal, gas and oil). Our gov-ernment promotes their oligarchy over democracy.

Canadian 2015 election is cru-cial for democratic human civili-zation. Our greatest human crisis facing the modern world looms.

Democratic ideals producing common public good for all are vilified — garbaged. Master’ of deception promote extreme oli-garchic private wealth degrading common humanity.

Securing our environmental sustainability, social justice, social equality and global peace for all, requires our democratic participa-tion and contribution.

The remedy for our inequity threatening 50,000 years of human history, is our direct democratic participation to regulate tragic vile unbridled avarice endangering all — anarchic oligarchic capitalism.

Argument against water petition failsto land any punches

Editor:

Re Tom Fletcher’s latest: Nestle protest doesn’t hold water (Williams Lake Tribune, 21 July 2015).

Mr. Fletcher pulls no punches, calling the SumOfUs/Water-Wealth petition nonsense in the opening paragraph of his piece.

Fortunately, none of Fletcher’s punches land, being aimed at places the petition never stood.

As a representative of Water-

Wealth I sincerely apologize to Mr. Fletcher if he took the words “suck B.C. dry” literally and mis-took the opening comment for the whole conversation.

We had not anticipated that, and feedback we have received indicates that the public went well beyond that opening com-ment to understand the broader issues that the petition was about — primary among them being to ensure that the Water Sustain-ability Act is sufficiently funded

to be fully implemented.The review of rental rates un-

der the Act, that the petition sought and that the province promised even before the peti-tion was delivered, is but one more step in the on-going work to ensure that the public’s voice is heard in development of strong regulations for the Water Sustainability Act, the first ma-jor update of B.C. water law in over a century.

Perhaps Mr. Fletcher over-

looked that the petition text was “Charge a fair price for Canada’s groundwater! Commit now to re-view the water rates!”

Those rates, ranging from two cents to $2.25, apply to some 80 categories of water use.

None of those 80 categories of use can be satisfied with ei-ther tap water or a jug from the fridge.

Folk rock and jazz bands in the park

Two local bands, Flannel Roots at 6 p.m. and Blue Note at 7 p.m. are on deck for the Performances in the Park Thursday evening.

Flannel Roots is a three piece folk rock band with Rowan Dolighan, Dylan Pritchard and Leyland Bernier. The band was created in the spring of 2014 and has recorded an album.

Enjoy our local hip hop crew entertaining you during the inter-mission, lead by Julie Turgeon, says event or-ganizer, Angela Som-mer.

A love for old stan-dards brought the Blue Note band together almost two years ago. When Mack the Knife goes on a Sentimental Journey on Route 66, then BlueNote is in the house, Sommer says.

Their genre ranges from swing and jazz to the occasional Dixie or Blues tune.

The pianist and the “horn section” make sure that the set list is also infused with some Latin beats, while the

singer tries to smuggle the occasional mourn-ful song in – and dur-ing all of it, the drum-mer keeps the beat.

The Community Arts Council of Wil-liams Lake is offering a Kids’ Arts Corner from 6 – 8 pm. Kids and their parents have the opportunity do neat crafts like rock painting, paper air-planes, kazoos and other projects during the performances.

Once again we have a Farmers’ and Vendors’ Mini-Market at Per-formances in the Park, starting at 5pm! Fresh produce and products will be available from Road’s End Vegetable Company, Puddle Pro-duce, Windy Creek Farm, Walk-Rite Shoes, BFF Fashions, Paper Airplane, Piece of Home, Barefoot

Books and more ven-dors from our commu-nity. Cody‘s Bannock, Smashin’ Smooth-ies and Taylor Made Cakes will be on hand with snacks available for everyone during the performances.

There will be extra displays that night by BC Transit and the Cariboo Growers.

“Come out early to see what they offer,” Sommer says.

What’s Up yer Kilt? author KC Dyer will hold a book signing at the Open Book, Fri-day, Aug. 7 from 11 to 3 p.m.

Readers who are looking for a hilari-ous and inspiring sto-ry that has historical elements, travel and technology fun, sis-terly competition and a pop culture connec-tion for the summer

will welcome this au-thor. Those travelling to Scotland without planning will want to read this to be aware of what not to do!

KC Dyer resides in the wilds of British Columbia in the com-pany of an assortment of mammals, some of them human. She likes to walk in the woods and write books.

Dyer has spoken

with thousands of kids in schools across Can-ada from British Co-lumbia to PEI; across the US and in Europe and Asia. She is a di-rector and long-time participant at the Sur-rey International Writ-ers’ Conference.

Her most recent novel, romantic com-edy for grown-ups, is called Finding Fraser, published in 2015.

Teen trains for Tour de CaribooDanika Robson is training

for her third Big Brothers Big Sisters Tour de Cariboo.

The 17-year-old high school student said the tour is a good way to stay in shape over the summer and a great way to pre-pare for her dream of riding in a big international race.

She didn’t grow up riding bikes — she learned to ride in Grade 8, only two years before taking on the challenge of her first Tour de Cariboo.

“I had heard about the tour and really wanted to try it,” Danika said. “It looked like a fun challenge and a good work-out.”

On her first tour Danika made the minimum age require-ment by two days. Accompa-nied by her uncle, Dean Mc-Donald, that first ride took her just over five hours.

“Last year I did it in three-and-a-half hours. Mind you, the first year I had a moun-tain bike with a squeaky front brake,” she added.

“I went to a road bike, which was a lot better.”

She said the tour is very well-organized, and the whole struc-ture of the ride is helpful.

“It motivates you to keep go-ing. The group part is fun; you see different people and chat along the ride. You see familiar faces and meet new people ev-ery year.

“After doing the ride two years, I’ll tell you that Wine Jug Hill is still awful, but it’s easier if you do some hill training.

“And it feels so good when you get to the finish line — there’s such a great feeling of

accomplishment. The hard thing about it is that when you get to it you’ve already ridden more than 60 km and it’s long and steep.”

She said that her first year she walked most of the final hill, but her second year she rode all the way.

“One thing that really makes it fun is the encouragement you get from the other riders. It gives you more energy to finish the race,” Danika explained.

“You can talk for a bit and people pace you for a while.”

She said that recently she did 88 km in the Valley Grandfon-do bike race in Langley with her dad, Glenn Robson, her uncle Dean McDonald and sev-eral others.

“I’m pretty competitive with other people and with myself. When I’m riding uphill and see someone ahead of me, I have to try to pass them,” she noted.

“I loved the chance to see what I could do in the tour; it’s a great experience and a fund-raiser for a great cause,” Dan-ika says.

“At the end of the ride, you think, ‘OK, that hurts,’ but you still feel great. You go for a swim in the lake, go in the sauna.

“The food is always good, there’s a massage therapist on site and you always look for-ward to the live music and the awards. It feels like a celebra-tion.”

For more information about the Tour de Cariboo, includ-ing how to register as a relay team for the ride, phone 250-398-8391, visit www.bbswlake.com or see them on Facebook at Big Brothers and Sisters of Williams Lake.

LeRae Haynes photoDanika Robson is looking forward to raising money for Big Brothers and Big Sisters in Williams Lake by participating in the Tour de Cariboo this fall.

Seniors advised on how to recognize scams

The other day I received a phone call that went “Thank you for flying with Westjet, as a result we would like to reward you with a free trip;” at this point I hung up.

Why? I have not flown with West-

jet and the call was obviously a scam.

If the conversation had con-tinued, they would have asked for my credit card, etc.

It seem that scammers are getting more inventive these days. Every other day I get calls

such as: grandma I need money, your computer is corrupt and needs fixing, we can get you a better rate with your Visa, etc. and seniors are so vulnerable to these scams.

So at last Old Age Pensioners Organization meeting we had a guest speaker to make us aware of the scams and frauds and what to do to protect ourselves. Mr. Dave Dickson, from com-munity safety, Williams Lake RCMP detachment gave a very interesting presentation.

Firstly, whether it be a bank, credit card company or Reve-nue Canada asking for informa-tion or money over the phone.

You couldn’t win a lottery or

a trip if you didn’t buy a ticket. Never give money to receive a cheque from the purchaser way above the asking price and the sender stating that he made the cheque in error and could you please return the difference.

You would go to the bank and the cheque will be accepted and so you can send the differ-ence away.

But then a few days later the bank will tell you that the cheque did not clear and you will be responsible to make good on the original amount.

In these days when most ev-eryone owns a cell phone, here is something to be aware of.

If a number appears on your

phone and you do not recognize it, do not phone that number because if you do phone you will be charged by the minute for the call anywhere from $4 and up per minute for the call.

If it is a legitimate call let the caller call you back.

New scams are always pop-ping up, so I will advise you not to readily part with your money or information.

Take the time to check with relatives or scam division or the RCMP before you take action.

The Seniors Activity Centre will be closed from Aug. 17 to 29 for the summer break and will open again for activities on Monday, Aug. 31.

Sights, sounds and flavours of summer

Are you heading to the beach for the day, camping for the weekend or having the neighbours over for a barbecue? Grab some local seasonal produce to enjoy along with your summertime fun!

There are so many great reasons to eat lo-cally grown foods, but my favourite, by far, is the flavour. Produce fresh from your gar-den, a farm stand, or a farmer’s market is picked at the peak of

ripeness and is brim-ming with flavours that make summertime so special.

It’s a bonus that lo-cal foods are better for the environment, keep our hard earned money in the commu-nity, and are more nu-tritious than foods that come from afar. For me, summer is a time for:

• Fresh strawberries, blueberries, raspber-ries and a mint leaf bobbing in a tall glass of sparkling water, sipped by the lake.

• A colorful parfait

layered with yogurt, whole grain cereal, and freshly picked huckle-berries enjoyed while sitting on the patio.

• A big leafy green salad loaded with spin-ach, kale, tomatoes, broccoli, cucumbers, and shredded beets carried next door and paired with the entrée on your neighbour’s grill.

• Crunchy ears of corn with fresh dill from a food truck, bright red juicy cher-ries from the Farmers’ Market.

• Tomatoes and

herbs from a Commu-nity Garden tossed on a whole-wheat pizza and cooked in an out-door oven.

• A homemade fresh fruit Popsicle enjoyed by a child after an af-ternoon of running through the sprinkler.

• Watermelon sliced and slurped while sit-ting at a picnic table surrounded by trees.

• Celery stalks dipped into fresh salsa made with tomatoes, cilantro, garlic, chili peppers, onions, and passed around the campfire.

• Colourful sweet peppers, zucchini, cau-liflower, and eggplant, slowly roasted on the barbeque.

• The smell of muf-fins baked in the oven on a cool late summer evening, made from zucchini picked from the garden.

Check out what’s in season now at bcfarm-ersmarket.org

Let the sights, sounds, smells, and fla-vors of summer tempt your senses!

Cindy Bossio is a community nutritionist with Interior Health.

Two of the summer students working at Scout Island this sum-mer are from Williams Lake.

Angela Melney is a Grade 11 student at Lake City Secondary School who plans to take biology in univer-sity.

She is greeting visi-tors and caring for the

live creatures in the Scout Island Nature House.

She worked week-ends at the nature house during the last school year, and said she’s thoroughly enjoy-ing being there all sum-mer.

“I enjoy all the ani-mals, meeting people and I really love an-swering the kids’ ques-tions and watching

their faces light up,” Angela said. “I get excited when they get excited.”

Geneva Gordon is a second-year engi-neering student at the University of B.C. working as a teacher-naturalist at the nature centre this summer.

A graduate of Lake City Secondary School, this is her sec-ond summer at Scout

Island and her first full-time position.

Geneva teaches the Nature Fun program, which covers themes like bugs, earth, birds and mammals.

“Today we made pa-per mache bugs, went

on a bug hunt and looked at dead bug specimens,” Geneva said. “I like that this job has so much vari-ety and that it’s new ever day; the kids love having freedom to have fun outdoors.”

In 2014, the Boys and Girls club saw 400 children and youth and 120 families accessed its programs, said the

club’s executive director Matt Neufeld during an update to council dur-ing the regular meeting last Tuesday.

“We served more than 1,200 meals and snacks,” Neufeld said. “Most of our services

are served at no cost or very little cost.”

Some of those pro-grams include harm reduction education, independent living, af-ter school day camps, mountain biking, base-ball, nutrition, health

care, music and work-shops.

The club has full laundry facilities and showers.

Through the club, 20 children were con-nected to recreation op-portunities and 10 were housed to live indepen-dently.

The club is open to youth up to age 18. Neufeld said the Boys and Girls Club is developing an app for parents and youth mental health workers with up-to-date infor-mation on available ser-vices. The organization also relies on volunteers and received more than 800 hours of volun-teer hours in 2014 for special events and pro-grams.

“We have dedicated volunteers and staff. I don’t think we’d have what we have without them. They are very passionate about the youth in this commu-nity.”

Presently there are 16

people on staff, ranging from the core workers to casual youth work-ers. When asked how closely the club works with other organiza-tions, Neufeld said Wil-liams Lake is great for partnerships. “We sit at the table with many other groups,” he said.

The club’s mission statement is to pro-vide a safe supportive place where children

and youth can experi-ence new opportunities, overcome barriers and form positive relation-ships and develop con-fidence and skills for life.

Children and youth arrive at the club through word of mouth, through refer-rals from other agencies or even reading about the club on Facebook.

Program services

leader Linda Bingham said the club’s drop-in youth centre offers a monthly calendar that changes depending on the interests of the youth.

“We offer cooking, movie nights and career prep programs,” Bing-ham said.

There’s also a flex your head program, that’s run through the national office.

“It’s a mental health promotion program about normalizing mental health, teaching youth what’s healthy and what’s not, that we all experience mental health issues.”

There are modules with a number of differ-ent activities staff can use to cater with youth.

A bit of stigma is at-tached to the Boys and Girls Club because it is open to everyone.

“We are accepting of any youth who come through our doors as long as they are respect-ing our rules,” Bingham said. “We don’t allow any stigma the youth are experiencing from the outside of the cen-tre affect how we treat them on the inside of the centre.”

Every youth that walks through the doors is treated the same, no matter what is going on with them outside in the commu-nity.

“They come in with no judgement,” she added. “That way ev-ery youth has equal op-portunity to participate and learn.”

The club will hold its annual Street Party, on August 26 from 6 to 9 p.m.

This is a free event for all ages!

For the little ones: bouncy castle, art, wa-ter fight (at about 7 p.m.), hockey shoot, jumbo games (jumbo kerplunk, snakes and ladders, pick-up sticks, etc...), remote control race cars and more.

For the bigger ones: graffiti art, remote con-trol race cars, hockey shoot, paintball target shoot, water fight (at about 7:30pm), and more!

The club will be serv-ing a hotdog barbecue with the first hotdog for free.

Another remarkable character who appeared in the Williams Lake area during the gold rush years was Benjamin Franklin "Doc" English.

He was born in Missouri in 1841 and, at the age of seven, he came west with his par-ents along the Oregon Trail, riding virtually all the way on various horses.

At one point dur-ing this journey the boy and his father separated from the main group to do some berry p i c k -ing.

They were accosted by an Indian war party and one of the horses they were riding was struck in the rump by a poisoned arrow.

It dropped dead just as they caught up to the wagon train.

When he was 15, Doc returned to Missouri and suc-cessfully guided more friends and relatives across the country to Oregon.

Three years later, in 1859, Doc and several members of his fam-ily, after hearing tales about the abundance of gold, came north to the Cariboo via the Okanagan Valley.

Along the route they were ambushed by hos-tile natives and had to fight their way through the unfamiliar territory.

The 1860s saw Doc running a pack train from Yale to Barkerville.

Eventually, he branched out and went into partnership with Thomas Hance (for whom Hanceville in the Chilcotin is named) and they opened a trad-ing post/store in the Clinton area.

It is said that he ordered $10,000 worth of goods and supplies from the Hudson's Bay Company, and when asked how he would pay for them, he replied that he was always ready to pay, but not right then.

Eighteen months later, he returned to the HBC with $40,000 in furs and gave them first option to purchase the lot.

The HBC made an offer but a rival com-pany outbid them by $6,000.

Doc was able to repay his outstanding debt with ease.

It should be noted here that Doc was

neither a doctor, nor was he even educated beyond a rudimentary level.

His nickname came about because of his passion for horses and his innate ability to diagnose and nurse their ailments.

Doc lived by his wits and his cunning, and some of his schemes were legendary.

By the late 1860s Doc was working part time as a horse trainer for William Pinchbeck on the huge Williams Lake ranch.

At that time, horse racing was the major sport in the Cariboo region.

A regular racing circuit had been estab-lished with tracks at Barkerville, Quesnel, Becher's Prairie, Williams Lake, Lac La Hache, 100 Mile House, Cache Creek and Ashcroft.

Race meets would last for up to a week, and they were real social affairs. People would camp out, bet-ting on their favourite mounts during the day, and socializing (party-ing) well into the night.

The liquor flowed freely, and huge amounts of money were bet.

One could find one-self a rich man or a pauper after any one of these events.

In 1873, Doc took up 360 acres of bench land on the west side of the Fraser River.

Since the gold rush days, the area had been known as Deer Park after its abundance of deer, and that was what Doc named his ranch.

He worked the land and used it to pursue his love of horses and horse racing.

Often he would import outstanding or promising race animals into the country. Doc thought so highly of one such horse, named Chinaman, that he had gold-plated horse shoes made for it.

One year Doc brought in two horses from San Francisco. They were fast and expensive, and Doc was certain they were winners.

He convinced his old partner, Thomas Hance, to bet on this "sure thing."

Unfortunately, the local horses proved to be faster and both Doc and Hance lost their shirts.

Not discouraged at all, the next year Doc returned with a new horse, determined to make up for the previ-ous season's losses.

He had a hunch that his jockey was being approached by his opponents and being paid to throw the race.

The rider in ques-tion was young Archie McLean, who later with his two broth-ers became part of the notorious McLean gang in the Kamloops/Douglas Lake area, and was hanged for murder.

One morning a cou-ple of days prior to the race, Doc had break-fast with Archie and his younger brother, Alex.

The boys were vis-ibly nervous and wouldn't maintain eye contact.

Archie left to see the horse and Doc asked Alex straight up what

the problem was.The boy broke down

and confessed that the fix was in.

Doc swore him to silence and paid him a bit to ensure that he kept quiet.

On the day of the race, as the rid-ers weighed in at the starting post, Doc told Archie that he would not be riding for him in this race, nor in any future races.

Archie, who had a quick temper, pulled a derringer and was about to fire on Doc, but a man standing nearby grabbed and disarmed him.

He was turned over to the local constable.

Doc then substitut-ed 12-year-old Jimmy Isnardy as the jockey.

Jimmy was so light that the other horse owners insisted that weights be fastened to the saddle to make it a fair race.

However, while the horses were lining up at the starting line, Doc went out to keep his horse calm and focused.

After the race began he returned — with the saddle weights.

Doc's horse won easily, and Doc made thousands of dollars from the wagering.

In another famous contest, a match race, Doc had a jet black stallion which was to race a fast sorrel owned by Doc's friend, Phil Grinder from Cache Creek.

The race was to be over a 600-yard straight course from a standing start.

It was agreed to hold the race on the flats at the west end of Williams Lake, and the race was heavily adver-tised.

A Williams Lake seniors’ floor curl-ing team is gearing

up for another trip to the B.C. Seniors Games — this time to North Vancouver. Ellen Wiege, skip, Lil Langstrom, lead,

Greta Bowser, sec-ond, and Madge Struthers, third, have been playing as a team for eight years, although they’ve all

played and compet-ed at the Games for many years.

On race day, at least $75,000 had been wagered (about $2 mil-lion in today's dollar) and the excitement ran high.

It was reported that all mining on the gold field creeks had stopped for two weeks prior to the event to allow the miners to attend.

The race must have been a big disappoint-ment for many, since it wasn't even close.

The black stallion won by several lengths, and Doc had another big pay day.

Nevertheless, Doc and Phil knew a good thing when they saw it.

They decided upon a second challenge race, and this time, the sorrel would win.

That would lead to a third tiebreaker race, and the money would roll in.

The only prob-lem would be how to slow down Doc's horse enough so he would lose the second race without being obvious.

Together, they came up with a scheme to give the big black horse an arsenic pill — just enough to put him out of sorts.

Phil, who had bet everything he had on his sorrel, agreed to admin-ister the pill while Doc watched.

Just before the race, Phil came to the stable with the pill rolled up in a lump of bread.

The horse didn't want to co-operate and Phil had trouble getting its mouth open, so Doc volunteered to hold the bread lump.

Phil got the jaws open but, by then, Doc had switched the bread for a lump with no pill.

Again in this race, Doc's horse won hand-ily. Doc English made another fortune.

Phil Grinder lost everything, but what could he do?

He couldn't com-plain that Doc had cheated him from fixing the match.

Phil and Doc never spoke to each other again and there was no third race.

Just across the Fraser River bridge on Highway 20 is a large promontory which is known as Doc English Bluff.

It is now an ecologi-cal reserve protecting unique flora as well as

some rare bird species.From the top there is

a spectacular view of the Fraser River and some of its bench lands.

It is an enduring reminder of one of the area's most colourful pioneers.

Note: I leaned heavily on Buckaroos and Mud Pups by Ken Mather for this one.

LeRae Haynes photoLil Langstrom, Greta Bowser, Madge Struthers and Ellen Wiege head to North Vancouver to compete in Floor Curling at the B.C. Seniors Games August 25-29.


Set to take place Aug. 25 to 29 in North Vancouver this year, the mission of the games is to improve the health, lifestyle

and image of the prov-ince’s 55-plus popula-tion.

Seniors can com-pete in everything from bocce, cycling and pickleball to table tennis, archery, bridge, crib and five pin bowl-

ing.Ellen Wiege said

she’s been competing for 22 years, stating that along with bowl-ing, golfing, square dancing and carpet bowling, curling keeps her active.

“Floor curling is fun because it takes strat-egy and co-ordination, and you don’t have a sweep — it’s all up to you,” she explained.

“I enjoy playing at the Games: I love the competition and the excitement knowing it can go either way.”

She said it’s great for seniors to stay active.

“In this town there’s no excuse for seniors

to say there’s nothing to do,” she added.

“All they have to do is check out the Seniors Activity Centre. I don’t want to sit around looking at the four walls: that doesn’t make sense to me. I’d rather stay active.”

Over the years the Williams Lake curl-ing team has brought home bronze, gold and

silver medals, but most of all, she said, they have a great time.

“If we win, we win, and that’s nice,” she noted, “but we always have fun.”

Greta Bowser, who’s been curling for 15 years, said that the Games are a great way to make new friends and meet up with old ones.

“It’s fun to meet a lot of different people and travel to differ-ent places through-out the province like Surrey, Prince George, Chilliwack, Abbotsford, Langley and Penticton,” she explained. “It’s very social.”

A curler for 20 years, Lil Langstrom said that she’s never missed a Seniors Games, but that this will be her final one. “I’ve competed in

curling, carpet bowl-ing and power walk-ing over the years,” she said. “It’s been a lot of fun.”

Madge Struthers agrees. “Ellen talked me into this, and it’s a blast,” she stated. “We have a great time and that’s why we do it.”

In what was described as the “best quad ride ever” by trail boss Wayne Johnson, the third annual Horsefly Volunteer Fire Depart-ment ATV Poker Run was a re-sounding success.

In all, 121 riders and 14 ghost riders participated in the poker run, held at Eureka Peak near Horsefly on July 25.

The winning hand was held by Johnson, while Teresa Mack fin-ished in second and Linda Schmid placed third.

The hardy Cariboo people were rewarded by blue skies and sun-shine at the top of the mountain after a wet and strenuous ride.

The route covered 80 kilometres of mountain scenery in the Black Creek country at the headwaters of the Horsefly River.

The event wouldn’t have been possible without the help of local volunteers and businesses, orga-nizers said.

“I’d like to thank Ross Williams, Brad Tippe and Ron Benisch for helping with the trail work,” John-son said. “And Heino Seibert of Spectra Power Sports for the ‘ace’ quad to use on the ride.”
