Nuxalk Nation hosts Junior All Native Basketball Tournament in Williams LakeGREG SABATINOWILLIAMS LAKE TRIBUNE

After more than eight months of planning, organizer Crystal Tallio said she couldn't have been happier with how the 2016 Junior All Native Basketball Tournament turned out.

Bella Coola and the Nuxalk Nation hosted the tournament in WIlliams Lake from March 13-18 where 21 girls teams and 17 boys teams of players aged 13-19 from around the province competed.

“We started back in August [of 2015] and we've been going full swing since then,” Tallio said.

She stressed the impor-tance of the tournament in providing a positive envi-ronment and experience for First Nations youth around the province.

“It was a really great turnout and all in all a really great week,” Tallio said. “We really wanted to represent our kids and uphold our youth, as well as represent our commu-nity.

“The basketball was

all really good calibre and all the kids played their best. We had lots of good feedback from the other teams.”

The Nuxalk Nation, meanwhile, entered teams in both the boys' and girls' divisions.

On the boys' side the Nuxalk Nation defeated Lil'wat (Mount Currie) in its first game before falling to Prince Rupert in round two. Wednesday, despite a valiant effort, Bella Coola was eliminated from the tournament by Port Simpson.

The girls downed Skidegate in its first game but lost to Greenville, the tournament runner-up, in game two. They then advanced after a win over the Gitsegukla Predators, before being knocked out of the tournament by Van City (Vancouver).

Prior to the tourna-ment teams had expressed hesitance about travelling to Williams Lake due to a recent rise in violent crime in the city.

Tallio, however, said everyone's preconceived notions were put to rest

after spending time in the city and thanked members of the RCMP for being visible around the tourna-ment's three venues and for spending time with the kids.

One of the most memo-rable moments of the tournament came when RCMP members, dressed in uniform, played an impromptu pickup basket-ball game at the court out-side Lake City Secondary School's Williams Lake Campus against players from Hesquiaht (north-west of Tofino).

“The RCMP were vis-ible and made themselves well-known around the tournament,” Tallio said. “There had been a lot of bad publicity about a lot of crimes in Williams Lake [before the tournament]. The RCMP pulled to together and were around the games and it was great to see.”

In the boys' final the Nanaimo Native Sons repeated as tournament champions after defeating Syilx (Keremeos) 95-81 in the final.

A group of five Vancouver Island University students are undertaking an ambi-tious project to make the Salloompt Forest Trail accessible to one and all.

Through their course work in the School and Community Support Worker Program offered by VIU, group members Bob Rose, Lorri Tuck, Heather Elliott, Shannon Cherry and Tanya Moren are completing their community-based practicum here in the

Valley. The goal of this practicum is to work with community mem-bers and organizations to re-establish the Sallompt Forest Trail into a disability-friend-ly trail for community members and tourists to enjoy.

The group has made several site visits to the trail and has deter-mined that there are a number of steps to real-izing this goal. Some sections of the trail were wiped out by the 2010 flood and need to be totally rebuilt. Two sites were identified

as possibilities for dis-ability-friendly picnic tables or benches, and a wheelchair friendly outhouse would also have to be constructed.

The group also iden-tified the need for new and increased signage, the possible removal of some danger trees, the building of a ramp and moving and/or altering several picnic tables.

In order to raise funds to complete the work, the group plans on hosting a Loonie/Toonie Auction on Saturday, May 7. During this event there

will also be bingo, poker and a conces-sion, all of which will raise money for this project. They will also be partnering with like-minded community organizations, such as the Trail Committee, for support of the proj-ect.

Community groups or individuals who would like to support the project through donations, in-kind support, or donating their time can contact Lorri Tuck at SAMS or Heather Elliott at BCE.

Community can be family tooDear Editor,

It’s been said that family is not necessar-ily blood, it can be the community one lives

in. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank my family. For all those who have brought me kindling and wood, and helped to pile it in

my shed.For those who

have given me work and credit and helped out financially when I needed it. For those

who have fixed my car, my TV, tilled my garden, picked my fruit trees. For those who remember my birthday, invite me to

Christmas dinner, give me fish, cut my meat, and bring me groceries when I’m sick.

For putting in my electric fence and

freight my hens in. For giving me lamb and doing my hair, and a special thank you to those who have given me my dogs to love.

Last, but not least, to our caring doctors. I am so very, very grateful.

On Thursday, March 10th 2016, the CCRD held their regu-larly scheduled board meeting. For the complete draft of the March meeting min-utes visit the CCRD website at www.ccrd-bc.ca. The next regular meeting of the CCRD board will be Thursday, April 14th 2016 and as always the public are welcome to attend.

The Minister of Community Sport and Cultural Development has signed the Cost Sharing Agreement with the CCRD for undertaking the Governance and Service Delivery Diagnostic Analysis Study to the value of $60,000 for Phase 1 of the study. The Terms of Reference for Phase 1 has been approved and highlight four themes. These themes are: Service delivery, organization and cost recovery; Electoral Area governance and structure; Local gov-ernance and service relationships; and,

Access to infrastruc-ture and other grant funding.

A short list of five appropriately qualified and expe-rienced consultants was agreed upon with the Ministry of Community Sport and Cultural Development.

The Request for Proposal (RFP) was sent out to the cho-sen consultants with a deadline of March 21st 2016.

There were two del-egations joining the meeting. The RCMP gave their quarterly review and empha-sized that they want to continue building relationships through-out the communities. Internal planning is currently under-way and one of the RCMP’s priorities is reducing youth access to liquor. As part of tackling this prior-ity they will continue to work in schools with the D.A.R.E. program (Drug Abuse Resistance Education).

Joan Sawicki gave the final presenta-

tion from the Official Community Plan Advisory Committee (OCPAC). All com-mittee members were acknowledged for their efforts through the plan review pro-cess.

Additional high-lights include: The 2016-2020 budget was adopted and copies of the Central Coast Regional District Five-

Year Financial Plan Bylaw No. 55, 2016 are available online and at the CCRD Office.

CCRD Policy for the Ethical Standards of Conduct for Elected Officials was amended to include a section on the Principles of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.

The Bella Coola

Valley Sustainable Agriculture Society has acquired a list-serv as a means for local buyers to com-municate demand with local producers. Those interested in registering for the

listserv can contact Dayna at [email protected].

Did you know? An Official Community Plan (OCP) is intend-ed as a long-term visionary document. The OCP is a state-

ment of objectives and policies that are used to guide decisions on planning and land use management, within the plan area, respect-ing the purposes and mandate of the local government.

A fundraising cam-paign is underway for a local teacher recently diagnosed with cancer. Geoff Gericke, a PE teacher at Acwsalcta, a hus-band and father of two young daughters, had an accident that resulted in a punc-tured lung two months ago. The resulting sur-gery to repair the lung revealed the presence of cancer. The family is now in Vancouver awaiting results and the subsequent treat-ment.

A Toonie Auction is planned for the Hagensborg Legion for Saturday, April 2. It is open to the public from 12 noon - 4pm. At 5pm the fun will resume with a dinner

(burgers provided by Geoff’s baseball team, the Strikers), and dance with music by Wayne’s Buddy Rose. Tickets are required for the later portion of the event. Tickets are $20 and can be purchased at the Bella Coola or Hagensborg Post Offices. Larger items will be auc-tioned off live and the Toonie Auction will continue until the music starts.

If you are unable to make it to the fun-draiser but would like to donate, Abra Silver is coordinat-ing a donation box at Mountain Valley Organics for the fam-ily. Thank you in advance for your sup-port!

Eileen Gibbs passed peacefully in Bella Coola Hospital on January 13, 2016 at the age of 91. Eileen was able to live at home until the last few weeks of her life due to the incredible, loving support of her daughter Bonnie, as well as her son Gordon and his wife Rachel, for which her family is extremely grateful. Eileen was born in Comox and raised near Merville, BC where her parents had come to start a farm after WWI.

Eileen came to Bella Coola in 1954 with her husband Andy, and their two eldest children, Graeme and Shirely. They bought two sections of land in the Noosatsum area and placed their homes and logging camp buildings they had barged from Texada Island, and towed them up the Valley on skids onto several pieces of their property.

Eileen and Andy felt very honoured to be invited to a garden party with Queen Elizabeth and Prince Phillip on one of the Royal’s visits to Canada, as well as a personal invitation to the official opening of Expo 86. Both Eileen and Andy were active members of the community their entire lives. Eileen was an executive member of the Woman’s Loyal Order of the Moose and Women’s Auxiliary of the Legion, along with bookkeeping for their logging company. She was Secretary-Treasurer of the Noosatsum Waterworks District and the Noosatsum Fire District from their inception until she was 85 years old, and remained a trustee until her death.While raising her two younger children, Eileen greatly enjoyed working for many years in the library of the Sir Alexander Mackenzie School, and later Nusatsum Elementary. After retiring she became the Senior Citizens Counsellor for many years, helping seniors to fill out government forms and many other necessities.

They soon welcomed two more children, Gordon and Bonnie and remained on that property for the rest of their lives, very grateful for the fact that these two youngest children remained in the Valley along with their granddaughter Laura and her children.

Eileen and Andy travelled a good deal and made trips to the US, England, Switzerland, Austrailia, New Zealand, and the Caribbean, as well as her favourites: a month in Africa and several trips in their motor home to Northern BC, the Yukon and Alaska. They both loved Blue Grass festivals and attended any they could find in the summer.She is survived by her loving children, Shirley Aschwanden, Gordon (Rachel) Gibbs, Bonnie Gibbs, and her grandchildren Kristina (John) Coulson, Sepp (Debbie) Aschwanden, Laura (Jeff) Kloss, Justin (Megan) Gibbs, and great-grandchildren Wyatt, Samuel, Logan, Andrew, Josef, and Sophia as well as her sister, Lillian Cliffe. Eileen was predeceased by her brother Kenneth Willis, sister Margaret Fitzgerald, her husband, Andy, her son Graeme (24), and her first great-grandson, Cody Aschwanden (7).

Family was very important to Eileen, and her children often joked that she believed they never did anything wrong. She loved to garden, and to play card games with family and friends, and was fondly nicknamed Poker Allie, by her late son-in-law, Joe Aschwanden, a name the family used ever after when it was time to play cards. She was greatly respected by her family as she modeled a life of discipline and routine, at the same time, she showed us how to enjoy life. She never seemed to be rushed, or angry, or blue. Some days when we wonder how to balance life, we think of her. She lived her life with great strength and dignity and respect; she kept us all united.

Eileen was laid to rest in the Bella Coola Valley Cemetery, beside her beloved husband, Andy. A private graveside ceremony led by Rachel Gibbs, and celebration of life with family only was held on January 31, 2016.

Two-time Juno Award nominee Jill Barber, is one of Canada’s bright-est stars – selling out theatres coast to coast and headlining the country’s most prestigious festivals. Her albums have sold over 100,000 copies and her album Mischievous Moon spent 13 straight weeks at #1 on the Canadian Jazz Charts and debuted at #12 on the US Billboard Jazz charts. Her song “Chances” was also featured on the soundtrack for the hit series “Orange is the New Black.”

She has fans in Josh Ritter, Kathleen Edwards, Kris Kristofferson (who hails Jill as a “real songwriter, a damn good songwriter”) and collaborator Ron Sexsmith.

Having earned over twenty award nominations and with two top-selling albums in English, in 2013 Jill released the french language album “Chansons,” after a celebrated performance at the prestigious Montreal Jazz Festival where she sang (for the first time ever) a French translation of one of her songs, “Tous Mes Rêves” (“All My Dreams”). Chansons has firmly established Jill as an artist to watch in both French and English, and an upcoming 2015 European tour is sure to expand her fan base even more.

Jill Barber has become renowned for writing songs that evoke feelings of a bygone era. The songs on Fool’s Gold are delivered by

that distinct, evoca-tive voice of an art-ist who has drawn inspiration from a cross section of musical genres.

Regardless of Jill’s influences, the one thing you are always assured of is that you know a Jill Barber song when you hear it, and chances are, you’ll never forget it.

Jill will be per-forming on Sunday, July 24 at the Bella Coola Music Festival with her brother, Matthew, in their collaboration “Matthew and Jill Barber present the Family Album.”

DR. PAUL MARTIQUET, Medical HealtH Officer

We like to think that Canada is the best place to live. It’s a place with all the benefits and supports for chil-dren to thrive and

grow. In many ways this is true, but is the well-being of a child in Canada comparable to one in the United States? Or The Netherlands? How about Slovenia?

UNICEF recently released its report on how well chil-dren are doing in 29

of the world’s most advanced econo-mies. Called “Child Well-being in Rich Countries,” (www.unicef-irc.org/pub-lications/683/) the report analyses and compares children’s relative well-being and ranks countries according to how well they do in five

areas. The results are meant to com-pare progress for children across the developed world and to demonstrate how standards can be improved in all countries.

At the top of the rankings is The Netherlands, followed by four Nordic countries: Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden. Canada, in contrast, is not ranked all that strongly, coming 17th overall and in no single category as the ‘best’. Our 11th place under ‘Housing and Environment’ is our best ; and a 27th in ‘Health & Safety’ the worst.

Rankings are cal-culated in five areas, or dimensions. First is Material Well-Being which measures monetary and material depri-vation via data such as relative child poverty and low family affluence. Secondly, Health and Safety are mea-sured using data such as health at birth, preventative child services and childhood mortality. A third dimension, Education, looks at early childhood education, post-

secondary participa-tion, PISA (Program for International Student Assessment) test results and NEET (youth aged 15 to 19 not in educa-

tion, employment or training). The fourth area is Behaviours and Risks which analyses health behaviours, risk behaviours and exposure to vio-lence. Data include rates of obesity, exercising, smok-ing, use of cannabis and alcohol, fighting and being bullied. Finally, Housing and Environment are analysed using data such as rooms per person, multiple housing problems, homicide rate and air pollution.

Looking at the results implies there is not a strong link

between a country’s economic strength (per capita GDP) and the overall well-being of its children: Slovenia is ranked higher than Canada; and Portugal higher

than the United States, for example.

“Fine,” you say, “but what good does this knowl-edge offer?” What may appear to be a dry exercise in data compilation and analysis has a far more important goal. While no one doubts the moral value of ensuring a child’s well-being, there are pragmatic reasons for doing so as well. Failure to protect and promote the well-being of children is associ-ated with increased risk across a wide number of later-life outcomes. Those

outcomes range from reduced skills and expectations to lower productiv-ity and earnings; from higher rates of unemployment to increased depen-

dence on welfare; from a prevalence of antisocial behav-iour to involvement in crime; and from increased health care costs to a higher incidence of mental illness.

The function of these international comparisons is to show what can be achieved in the real world. It also tells politicians and the public everywhere: “This is how your performance in protecting children compares with the record of other nations at a similar level of develop-ment.” It can, and should, motivate us to strive for better results in the future.

Dr. Paul Martiquet is the Medical Health Officer for Rural Vancouver Coastal Health including Powell River, the Sunshine Coast, Sea-to-Sky, Bella Bella and Bella Coola.

“At the top of the rankings is The Netherlands… Canada ranks 17th overall.”

Nuxalk Nation takes part in historic paddle to Qatuwas Festival in Bella BellaBy eVanGeline hanUse

On the morning of July 9, 2014, four canoes began their journey from Bella Coola to par-take in the annual Tribal Canoe Journeys. Hosted this year by the Heiltsuk Nation of Bella Bella, it is estimated that there will be 100 canoes attending the Qatuwas Festival and 5,000 visitors going to Bella Bella for seven days of celebrating, feast-ing, and dancing.Tribal Journeys, also referred

to as Qatuwas, or ‘People Gathering Together,’ is planning to return to Bella Bella this year, 21 years after its first gathering was held in 1993. The Heiltsuk have played a key role in the resurgence of the ocean going canoe culture along the Pacific North West Coast when they first carved a canoe and paddled from Bella Bella to Vancouver for Expo 86, in 1986 and in 1989 participated in the “Paddle to Seattle”, and at this event invited other tribes to travel to

Bella Bella and hosted the 1993 Qatuwas Festival.Members of the Squamish Nation and their fellow paddlers from Hawaii towed two canoes from Vancouver, BC and were welcomed into Bella Coola by the Nuxalk Nation with a pot-luck at the Bella Coola Motel Campground. Together, they journeyed for three days with the help of support vessels, arriving in Bella Bella last weekend. Luke Mack, a skipper, who has been on several canoe

journeys, was cautious when speaking of facing the notori-ous Mesachie Nose, famous for its swirling currents and strong winds. “If the winds pick up we may have to be towed,” said Mack. To many, this canoe journey is seen as a healing opportu-nity for all involved. Cultural traditions and knowledge are being revived as traditionally Nuxalkmc were skilled naviga-tors on the water, using the ocean as a highway for trade and

attending ceremonies all across the Coast, even traveling as far as the Hawaiian Islands. Hereditary Chief Q’umulha Rhonda Sandoval is excited to partake in the experience of a lifetime with her husband, Will, and daughter Anuxum. A former commercial fisher and experi-enced diver, Sandoval is right at home on the water and is hop-ing this journey will keep the momentum going and revive the Nuxalkmc canoe culture
