INDEX TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Page 1
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared by management in accordance with Canadian Public Sector Accounting Standards (PSAS). The integrity and objectivity of these statements are management’s responsibility.
These statements include certain amounts based on management’s estimates and judgments in order to ensure that the consolidated financial statements are presented in all material aspects. Management is also responsible for the notes to the consolidated financial statements and schedules, and for ensuring that this information is consistent with the information contained in the consolidated financial statements.
Management maintains accounting systems and related internal controls to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded and that transactions are properly authorized, recorded, and reported; that the provisions of the relevant legislation are being observed, and that best practices in the conduct of the financial affairs of the Regional District are being implemented. Such practices include formal written policies and procedures; careful selection of qualified staff; segregation of responsibilities within the organization to the extent possible; and appropriate delegation of authority.
To assist in these objectives the Board is committed to ensuring that the performance of management is maintained at acceptable levels through ongoing professional training and development, mainly under the auspices of the Government Finance Officers Association of BC (GFOABC).
The Board is responsible for ensuring that management fulfils its responsibilities for financial reporting and internal control, and to this end conducts monthly reviews of internal financial information and an annual review of externally audited consolidated financial statements.
The Board’s external auditors, MNP, LLP conduct an independent examination, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and express their opinion on the consolidated financial statements. Their examination includes appropriate tests and procedures to provide reasonable assurance that the financial position of the Regional District is presented fairly. The external auditors have full and free access to all levels of management and to the Board and meet when required.
On behalf of the Regional District of Mount Waddington

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a) British Columbia Regional DistrictsThe Regional District of Mount Waddington is required to follow Canadian Public Sector AccountingStandards (PSAS) and to apply such standards consistently. In accordance with this policy, theConsolidated Financial Statements of the Regional District of Mount Waddington are prepared byManagement in accordance with the standards issued by the Public Sector Accounting Board (PSAB) of theCanadian Institute of Chartered Accountants.
Under the principles of fund accounting, the assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses of the RegionalDistrict are segregated into various funds for accounting and financial reporting purposes.
b) Basis of accountingThe accrual basis for recording revenues and expenses has been followed, whereby revenues are recognizedin the period in which the transactions or events occurred that gave rise to the revenues, and expenses arerecognized in the period the goods and services are acquired and a liability is incurred, whether or not acurrent cash flow is associated with the transaction.
c) Temporary InvestmentsInvestments are comprised of deposit accounts with the C.I.B.C. and in the pooled investments of theMunicipal Finance Authority (MFA). Funds invested with MFA are pooled with other local governmentsand managed independently by Phillips, Hager & North Investment Management. Investments are carriedat cost which approximates fair market value.
d) Financial InstrumentsFinancial instruments consist of cash and temporary investments, receivables, debt recoverable frommember municipalities, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, other liabilities, short and long-term debt.Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the regional district is not exposed to significantinterest, currency or credit risk arising from these financial instruments.
e) Tangible Capital Assets (See Schedule E)Tangible Capital Assets, comprised of capital assets and capital work-in-progress, are recorded at originalcost in the period acquired and are categorized according to type. Capital assets costing less than $1,000are expensed.
Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset commencing inthe year following year of acquisition. Estimated useful lives will not exceed 40 years unless it can beclearly demonstrated that the useful life is expected to exceed 40 years.
Amortization periods for the asset categories of the Regional District are generally as follows:Engineering Structures 30 to 40 years Buildings 30 to 40 years Machinery & Equipment 20 to 30 years Vehicles 10 to 15 years
Contributed capital assets are capitalized at fair market value and recorded as revenue.
f) Revenue RecognitionRevenue is recorded in the period in which the transactions or events that gave rise to the revenue occur.Amounts that have been received in advance of services being rendered are recorded as deferred revenuesuntil the Regional District discharges the obligations that led to the collection of funds. Taxes arerecognized in the year levied. Sale of services are recognized in the year that the service is provided or theamount is earned, provided the amount can be estimated and collection is reasonably assured. Governmenttransfers are recognized as revenues in the period in which the events giving rise to the transfer occur andonly recorded once authorized, eligibility criteria is met, and the amount can be reasonably estimated.
Page 14

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Continued
Contributions are recorded when the event giving rise to the contribution occurs. Investment income, taxation penalties, and other earnings are recorded in the year they are earned.
g) Use of EstimatesThe preparation of financial statements in accordance with PSAS requires management to make whennecessary, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities anddisclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reportedamounts of revenues and expenses during the accounting period.
Significant use of such estimates has been made by management in the determination of the liability forlandfill closure and post-closure costs, the estimated net recoverable amount of accounts receivable andtangible capital assets, the estimated useful life of tangible capital assets for amortization purposes, andaccrued sickleave liability. Actual results will differ.
h) Recent Accounting PronouncementsIn February 2010, the Public Sector Accounting Board (PSAB) issued PS 3510 Tax Revenue to provideguidance on how to account for and report tax revenue in Regional District financial statements. Thissection establishes recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure requirements for tax revenue. PS3510 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after April 1, 2012. The District does not expect theadoption of the new section to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2010, the Public Sector Accounting Board (PSAB) issued PS 3260 Liability for Contaminated Sitesto establish recognition, measurement and disclosure standards for liabilities associated with theremediation of contaminated sites. The new section defines activities included in a liability forremediation, establishes when to recognize and how to measure a liability for remediation, and provides therelated financial statement presentation and disclosure requirements.
PS 3260 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after April 1, 2014. The District has not yetdetermined the effect of the new section on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2011, the Public Sector Accounting Board replaced and revised existing section PS 3410Government Transfers with a newly amended section PS 3410. Newly issued PS 3410 establishesstandards on how to account for and report government transfers to individuals, organizations and othergovernments from both a transferring government and a recipient government perspective. This sectionpermits a recipient government to recognize government transfers as revenue when the transfer isauthorized by the transferring government, unless the transfer creates a liability for the recipient. Aliability is created as a result of the recipient government not yet meeting eligibility criteria or the existenceof stipulations in the transfer agreement. When a government transfer results in recognition of a liability,revenue is recognized by a recipient government as the liability is settled. A transferring governmentrecognizes an expense when the transfer is authorized and the recipient has met all eligibility criteria.
Newly revised and issued PS 3410 may be applied prospectively or retroactively and is effective for fiscalyears beginning on or after April 1, 2012; however, earlier adoption is encouraged. PS 3410 will beapplied prospectively but the District has not yet determined the effect of the newly issued section on itsconsolidated financial statements.

Included in cash and temporary investments is $422,050 (2011 $417,623) of moneymarket investments heldwith the Municipal Finance Authority. These investments are carried at cost which approximates fair marketvalue.

11. COMMUNITY WORKS (GAS TAX) FUNDING (See Schedule F)
Community Works Funds are a component of the Gas Tax Agreement funding provided by the Government ofCanada, through the Union of British Columbia Municipalities. Gas tax funding is restricted to certain publictransit, community energy, water, wastewater, solid waste and capacity building projects as specified in thefunding agreement. The following balances are included as Deferred Revenue in the Consolidated Statementof Financial Position:
2012 2011 Opening Balance of Unspent Funds 603,332 658,977 Add: Amount received during the year 204,354 204,354 Interest Earned 7,001 6,477 Less: Amount spent on eligible projects (197,585) (266,476) Closing Balance of Unspent Funds 617,102 603,332
12. OTHER LIABILITIES
i) Other Liabilities consist of the following:
General Revenue Fund 2012 2011 • Employee Vested Benefits 24,145 24,145 • Landfill Post Closure (see 12 ii) 460,771 432,108
484,916 456,253
General Reserve Fund • Woss Community Capital Reserve 115,241 113,817
600,157 570,070
ii) Environmental law places an obligation on a Regional District for certain closure activities and post-closurecare for a period 25 years after closure. Where it is known for certain that a requirement exists for future sacrifice of economic benefits in relation to the closure care obligation, PS3270 provides guidance for the recognition of the associated liability. As far as the Regional District’s landfill operation known as 7 Mile is concerned there exists a contingent liability in respect of landfill closure costs. (refer Note 14)
There remains an obligation for post-closure care beginning 1 January 2012 in respect of Phases I and II. This has been estimated at $460,771 as at 31 December 2012 (2011 $432,108). These balances are included within the total of Other Liabilities.
Page 18
XXI
12. OTHER LIABILITIES Continued
The most recent 7 Mile Landfill Design and Operation Plan Update (DOP) completed in November 2008 Sperling Hansen Associates (SHA) estimated that the landfill’s service life would extend to 2063.
Subsequent to this analysis, the Regional District has been outperforming the assumptions set out in the DOP with the commencement of the Phase 3 expansion having not occurred yet despite being assumed to begin in 2009 as set out in the plan. Based on this outcome, the 2063 date for the exhaustion of airspace at 7 Mile Landfill is a conservative one with an estimated 73% of the capacity remaining to be filled.
13. ACCUMULATED SURPLUS
December 31 2012 2011 Equity in Financial Assets 2,802,285 3,941,724 Equity in Tangible Capital Assets 11,829,078 10,367,496 Equity in Reserve Fund 1,188,553 1,019,424 Accumulated surplus, end of year 15,819,916 15,328,644
14. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
As at December 2012 there existed a contingent liability in respect of possible landfill closure costs, estimatedat $590,000 on the basis of a report by the Regional District’s landfill consultants, Messrs Sperling HansenAssociates. The uncertainty surrounding this issue is due to the uncertain effect on the need for the installmentof an engineered landfill cover (liner) consequent upon the 2009/2010 capital upgrade project for improvedleachate capture, monitoring, treatment, and drainage control.
It is anticipated that a resolution of the uncertainty will be achieved over time as a function of the quantity andquality of leachate as determined through stringent monitoring activity.
15. MOUNT WADDINGTON REGIONAL HOSPITAL DISTRICT
The board members of the Regional District of Mount Waddington sit on the board of the Mount WaddingtonRegional Hospital District. The Regional District and the Regional Hospital District are separate legal entitiesas defined by separate letters patent and authorized by separate legislation.
During the year, administrative support services provided to the Regional Hospital District by the RegionalDistrict of Mount Waddington totaled $66,840 (2011 $66,840)
On behalf of the Regional Hospital District, Regional Hospital District revenues and expenses are received intoand expended from the Regional District’s single bank account held with the C.I.B.C. Cash & TemporaryInvestment balances held on behalf of the Regional Hospital District at yearend are included in theconsolidated bank balance of the Regional District. The liability account “Due to Hospital District” reflectsthis balance as $2,651,884 as at 31December 2012 (2011 $1,886,485)
16. PENSION LIABILITY
The Regional District of Mount Waddington and its employees contribute to the Municipal Pension Plan(Plan), a jointly trusteed pension plan. The Board of Trustees, representing plan members and employers, isresponsible for overseeing the management of the Plan, including investment of the assets and administrationof benefits. The Plan is a multi-employer contributory pension plan. Basic pension benefits provided arebased on a formula and the Plan has about 176,000 active members and approximately 67,000 retiredmembers. Active members include approximately 35,000 contributors from local governments.
Page 19
XXII
16. PENSION LIABILITY Continued
The latest valuation as at December 31, 2009 indicated an unfunded liability of $1.024 billion for basic pension benefits. The next valuation will be as at December 31, 2012 with results available in 2013.
Defined contribution plan accounting is applied to the Plan as the Plan exposes the participating entities to actuarial risks associated with the current and former employees of other entities, with the result that there is no consistent and reliable basis for allocating the obligation, Plan assets and cost to individual entities participating in the Plan.
The Regional District of Mount Waddington paid $86,688 (2011 $84,016) for employer contributions to the plan in fiscal 2012.

Frontline Customer Service Workshop Survey Results June 10, 2013
Please tell us why the Frontline Customer Service Workshop did not fulfill your reason for attending.
• The workshop was fabulous, but would like to see a follow-up portion, that deals specifically with difficult situations and how to diffuse them and if possible turn them around. Because of the need to cover a wide variety of topics in a short period of time, not enough time was able to be devoted to this. We like the workshop so much there should be more.
• Could have been longer, perhaps given advice on encouraging others who didn't attend
Would you recommend attending the Frontline Customer Service Workshop to others? Yes 94% Maybe 6% No 0%
What was the most beneficial aspect of the Frontline Customer Service Workshop?
• Networking with others who are in a similar "customer service" workplace. Working together to problem solve similar situations we all face being frontline staff in a customer service workplace. "How to be the best we can be at what we do!"
• Provide alternative approach for long-term employees with bad habits • Phone etiquette for our staff, don't say "no" attitude! • The power point presentation was very well done, so much valuable information. • I liked her tip about answering the telephone with a smile on your face. It definitely makes a difference of
how I feel when answering the telephone. • Refresh my customer service philosophies and skills • I enjoyed all of Jennifer's presentation I thought the comment about business theses days being a flat line is
now good. Use to be going up not down now it's just a flat line. I actually used that comment when securing a location to re-open a business.
• Community recognizes that those in the frontline work have a vital role and customer service is so important. • The speaker kept my attention very engaged. • Presenting the idea of always responding with a positive reply to any question or criticism. • It helped me realize what I am doing it right in my business and how I deal with clients.
It also helped me realize how to deal with a difficult client that is Overly difficult. It does not happen often but it does happen and when it does I will know what to do in that situation.
• Meeting others locally, discussing common problems
Please take a minute to add anything else you would like to comment about below.
• Very well presented • Maybe more details how to deal with different cultures. Do's and Don'ts when having a conversation with the
customer. • Super friendly speaker who made us all feel welcome and entertained :) Thank-you!! • The facilitator was marvelous!! Entertaining and very knowledgeable about client service etc. The time flew
for the workshop. • Jennifer was up beat, fun and had a great class. • Thank you. • I feel that the companies that participated in the workshop are very forward thinking.
A lot of the local stores and merchants could benefit from taking this course it remains to be seen if they are open minded to listen to what the speaker has to say.
Additional Comments • Although I really liked it short and sweet I can see that there is enough to talk about to cover a whole day! I
would love to send our new office staff at the beginning of the season to attend. • Thanks for a refresher in excellent customer service skills!! :) • Thanks to the local Chamber of commerce for sponsoring this workshop. :-) • Thank you for having this workshop in our town.

REPORT
TO: Chair and Directors FILE NO. 315.04 FROM: Patrick Donaghy, Operations Manager SUBJECT: July Report DATE: July 9, 2013 The Manager of Operations has been focussing on a variety of fronts since the last Board meeting. On July 3, the RDMW hosted a meeting of local government staff and businesses participating in solid waste related activities to discuss challenges and opportunities related to the diversion of packaging and printed paper materials. This meeting resulted in a better understanding of what was achievable and what synergies existed between various communities. Subsequent to this meeting, the Manager of Operations, met with the District of Port Hardy staff to further explore the best options for Port Hardy and Coal Harbour. Other planned community based meetings include Woss, Quatsino, Coal Harbour, Malcolm Island and a Council meeting in Port Hardy. The recently approved upgrades to the Malcolm Island Recycling Depot have been completed by Karsten Construction. Work was done to high standard with only some minor gravel grading required to finish this phase of work. The upgrade to the Woss waste water lagoon has been completed bring the facility in compliance with recent MoE site review comments. Regarding bylaw enforcement issue related to Woss and brought to the Board’s attention at the June meeting, letters have been sent to properties out of compliance with the communities zoning bylaws. Already two properties have made changes bringing them into compliance. The expectation is that other property owners will utilize the opportunity offered by the RDMW to use Temporary Use Permits to provide time to come into compliance. The Manager of Operations has also been reviewing the existing landfill operator contract that is coming to the end of its term in December 31, 2013. To date only minor changes are required to meet the RDMW’s needs for the next few years and despite initial concerns, it looks feasible to offer a 3 year term with an additional 2 year extension. The Manager of Operations has also started an in depth assessment to determine the breadth of coverage that volunteer fire fighters have while carrying out their various functions. This subject needs to be revisited periodically to insure that changes in policies that protect the volunteers do not leave any undue exposure. Finally the Manager of Operations will miss the next Board meeting while on vacation. If any Board member has any questions, please contact me at your convenience prior to the second week of August as I will then be away until Labour Day. If any member of the Board has any questions related to local or regional services managed by the Operations Manager, please feel free to forward any inquiries at your convenience.
