By JOSH MASSEY

THE TRANSPORTATION min-istry is putting up a yield sign on an approach to the Sande Overpass following six collisions and reports of other incidents since new traffic control signals went into operation there late last November.

The sign will be installed for ve-hicles approaching the intersection on the south end of the overpass from the west along Keith Ave.

Previously there was a stop sign where Keith Ave. meets the inter-section for all the traffic coming from the west, which alerted driv-ers that they could not turn left onto the overpass until through traffic approaching from the east on Keith passed through.

The installation of traffic con-trol lights is intended to improve traffic flow for vehicles.

But now drivers approaching the overpass from the west along

Keith and intending to turn left onto the overpass are not yielding to traffic flow from the east, says Terrace RCMP Constable Angela Rabut.

“Drivers turning left from Keith onto the Sande Overpass need to properly assess the flow of west-bound traffic,” said Rabut.

“Yield the right of way to those travelling straight through the in-tersection on a green light.

“Ensure all of your attention is

directed towards driving, which is actually a very complicated task with a lot of factors to consider, especially at intersections,” said Rabut.

The reported accidents have caused minor injuries and damages of more than $1,000, she added.

Pronto Towing driver Tim Flemming has called the new traf-fic control light system a design flaw, saying there have been more accidents at the intersection than at

any other intersection in the city.“Most of the accidents have

happened exactly the same way,” he said.

“The mechanics of the accident all seem to be the same. Somebody is T-boning somebody who is turn-ing trying to get onto the overpass.

“They need to put a delayed turn signal in coming from the west for eastbound traffic so there is a de-layed turn,” Flemming suggested.

THE 10 cents a litre that lo-cal residents now pay in fed-eral taxes when filling up at the pumps is being returned in the form of $4.3 million grant for major improve-ments at the city’s aquatic centre.

The $4.3 million will go toward constructing a new workout room on the northwest corner, as well as installing a family change room, adding wheelchair ac-cessibility to the pools, and special UV filter system to reduce reliance on chemi-cals in the water, which will also be made level with the pool deck.

“It’s fabulous news,” said mayor Carol Leclerc by phone from her vacation location in Hawaii. “The biggest score we have ever had.”

“There were only 57 projects across [B.C.], and we got one,” she added.

The current pool was nearing the end of its life, and Leclerc says the up-grades will extend its life by another 30 to 40 years.

The city already has basic upgrade designs in hand that were commissioned in 2012 to help guide the project.

City upgrades its fluoride systemBy JOSH MASSEY

THE CITY is spending $10,000 to upgrade its fluoridation system so that city staff will receive an alarm via their cellphones should too much of the substance be injected into the city’s water supply.

The upgrade should be finished in a week or so, ending a period of sev-eral months when when the substance has been only sporadically placed in the water supply.

“Based on flow it tells the dosing pump how much to pump into the system,” said city works manager Robert Hoekstra of the new comput-erized system.

“We have the ability to know [im-mediately] when to stop the pump, before we didn’t have that ability, we took representative samples around town.”

He says he has never seen an situ-ation where too much fluoride has been pumped into the water supply and that a failure of the new computer system would be an “extremely rare” occurrence.

Up until now, the city could not do real time analysis of fluoride and relied on manual testing done daily around town which is still a part of the program, said Hoekstra.

Chlorine is also added by a similar analyzer to the water supply.

News of the new fluoride pumping system comes at a time when the city has been asked to stop the practice which is meant to reduce or prevent tooth decay.

Terrace is only one of four munici-palities in British Columbia to still put the chemical in the water supply.

Appearing before city council Feb. 9, local anti-fluoride campaigner Bar-ry Prince presented a petition contain-ing more than 400 signatures of Ter-race and Thornhill residents.

This was his third attempt to con-vince council that the city should join the tide of municipalities around Can-ada who are stopping their fluorina-tion programs.

There was little debate, though councillors asked him about the peti-tion process.

James Cordeiro made the motion to receive the petition for information which was seconded by councillor Brian Downie.

Deputy mayor Lynne Christiansen was about to move on in what was a busy agenda, when councillor Mi-chael Prevost interjected:

“I think it would be beneficial for council to request [the] Northern Health [Autrhority] do a presentation just to provide a leveled approach in terms of best practice, current stud-ies, because for us to make a deci-sion moving forward we need to have some balanced information.”

A motion to do so was carried.Prince was accompanied by lo-

cal naturopath Daniel Yee who said stopping fluorinating was a “no brain-er.”

“I was actually quite shocked and really surprised that Terrace is still fluorinating their water,” Yee said during his presentation.

He pointed out that children ex-posed to industrial levels of fluoride in China, according to a study in the journal Lancet, showed an 8-10 point I.Q. loss which is the difference be-tween average and below average in-telligence.

He said forcing fluoride through the water supply, even in small amounts, is contrary to notions of consent enshrined in the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

Prince concluded by saying he would challenge the city in court if no referendum is held, or if fluoride is not removed from Terrace water.

“This practice is going to stop one way or another, or we will be back again,” he told council.

City officials counted the number of names on the petition presented by Prince and found that the total was 260 Terrace residents, 109 from the regional district and 38 of unknown residency, for a total of 422.

The city’s fluoride program costs an average of $30,000 per year. The fluorosilicic acid itself is purchased in barrels from a supplier called Cleart-ech Industries Inc. at an annual cost of approximately $20,000, according to the city.

CITY WORKER Collin Taylor installs the city’s new fluoride pump last week down at the water-works building on Frank St. The city spends $30,000 a year on the program, including $20,000 on the fluoride itself. The recent upgrade to the system cost $10,000.

Deadline to submit is February 29, 2016.

Northwest Community College will present three awards to deserving recipients at our Convocation ceremony this spring.

NWCCaw a r d sThe deadline for making your 2015 contribution

to investments held in your Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) is only a few days away - but you can still enhance your retirement nest egg and save on taxes when you take advantage of these last-minute RRSP tips.

RRSP deadline basics• February 29, 2016, at 11:59 p.m. is the

deadline for contributing to investments in your RRSP for the 2015 tax year.

• The maximum contribution room that can be created for 2015 is $24,930, depending on your earned income in 2014 (and minus your pension adjustment if applicable).

• You’ll � nd your personal maximum allowable contribution on your most recent notice of as-sessment from the Canada Revenue Agency (on line (A) of the RRSP Deduction Limit Statement).

• You can carry forward unused contribution room from prior years.

• You can � ll your unused contribution room in a single year or over a number of years until the end of the year in which you reach age 71(or the end of the year your spouse/common-law partner turns 71 if he or she is younger).

RRSP tips that defer taxes, save on taxes and build income• Maximizing your RRSP contribution this year

(and every year) is often the best strategy for

tax savings and maximizing potential long-term growth.

• Catch up on your unused contribution room from previous years as quickly as possible for additional savings and enhanced long-term growth.

• An RRSP loan can help you maximize this year’s contribution and catch up on past contribution room. The money you borrow will generate a tax break and add to your tax deferred RRSP growth potential. But ONLY when you can get an RRSP loan at a low interest rate and pay it back quickly. Use your extra tax savings to pay off the loan.

• If your spouse’s income will be lower than yours over the next few years or in retirement, splitting income by way of a spousal RRSP can generate retirement income that is subject to less tax. The plan is in your spouse’s name but you contribute to it and receive the tax deduction. Your total contributions can’t exceed your personal yearly contribution room but your spouse’s limit is unaffected by your contribution.

These RRSP tips and a few other RRSP strategies will save taxes and help you retire with more. But to adequately fund the retirement of your dreams, you should also build a well balanced non-registered investment portfolio. For the � nancial planning strategies that work best for you, talk to your professional advisor.

First Nations back Feds’s LNG review

TWO LOCAL First Na-tions say they are ten-tatively onboard with conclusions of a federal environmental review of the Paci� c NorthWest LNG terminal planned for Lelu Island which concluded that salmon would not be affected by the footprint of the $11-billion liquefaction facility at the mouth of the Skeena River.

“We have gone to great lengths to address environmental con-cerns and have ensured that an extraordinary amount of scienti� c work has taken place,”

said Kitsumkalum chief Don Roberts in a press release following last week’s release of the Canadian Environmen-tal Assessment Agency (CEAA) review.

“As we review CEAA’s � ndings and have the assurance that the project will not im-pact the Skeena � shery, it enables us to consider social and economic bene� ts for our mem-bers, like training for our younger genera-tion,” said Roberts.

Kitselas chief coun-cillor Joe Bevan also endorsed the � nds of

the federal agency.“All of our leaders

and people have been weighing the bene� ts against the potential impacts through mul-tiple public meetings. We are encouraged that the proponent has un-dertaken signi� cant ad-ditional work to address concerns and that the independent scientists at CEAA have validated this work.”

Their comments were contained within a release from the Tsim-shian Environmental Stewardship Authority made up of � ve Tsim-

shian � rst nations and formed to review the Paci� c NorthWest LNG

project. The � ve are among

seven Tsimshian � rst nations having tradi-tional claims to the area for � sh and other ma-rine harvesting around Lelu Island.

One of the nations that is part of this au-thority, the Gitga’at First Nation, did not participate in the en-dorsement of the federal environmental review.

The Kitselas have al-ready signed an impact management bene� ts agreement for the proj-ect and Kitsumkalum is also in negotiations.

The federal review was delayed while Pa-ci� c NorthWest LNG provided the govern-ment with more de-tailed information about how the development, including a kilometre long trellis into Cha-tham Sound, would affect the ocean � oor where a sensitive eco-system provides rear-ing grounds for juvenile salmon.

Petronas, the Malay-sian state-owned com-pany wanting to build the facility changed its design to elongate the pier going out into the

bay to try to avoid this area.

The review said there would be signi� cant impacts on the porpoise population in the area, as well as a concerning increase in greenhouse gas emissions.

Local conservation groups were unanimous in disagreeing with the claim that salmon would not be affected, basing their statements off other scienti� c stud-ies that have been done in the area.

The project is being opposed by the elected and hereditary leader-ship of another Tsim-shian � rst nation, the Lax Kw’alaams, which have a traditional claim to Lelu Island itself and to the surrounding ma-rine waters.

With the CEAA re-view now released, a 30-day public comment period of the review is now underway. That ends March 11.

First Nations back gov’t LNG review

Joe Bevan

Russians sound salmon alarmA GROUP of Russian scientists and conserva-tionists are on a speak-ing tour this week, which included a stop in Terrace last night, Feb. 16, about the dangers that LNG projects pose to local salmon.

One of them, conser-vationist Dmitry V. Lis-itsyn, says the Sakhalin LNG project, which was built and owned by Shell and Gazprom near his hometown on the east coast of Russia, says the end results of the development were much different than promised in the environ-mental plan, causing the collapse of pink salmon and also of other sea life after it opened in 2009.

The group was brought over by Ter-race-based SkeenaWild Conservation Trust, and conservationist Lisitsyn has a similar position with Sakhalin Environ-ment Watch as does SkeenaWild executive director Greg Knox in Terrace.

He says that by comparison, the Paci� c NorthWest LNG project planned for Lelu Island near Prince Rupert is about twice the size of the Sakhalin one.

He also said Sakha-lin has small rivers near the plant, as opposed to one big one like here.

“There was a very big difference between what they predicted, and what occurred,” he said of when the Sakha-lin project was okayed in the planning phases by the Russian govern-ment.

Based on similarities between the two proj-ects and their locations, Lisitsyn believes the region should expect a large impact on the salmon runs from hav-

ing a plant built in the estuary at the mouth of the Skeena River.

“I don’t have a prob-lem with LNG technol-ogy,” he said. “What I have a problem with is putting the plants in lo-cations like these.”

In the ocean itself, it is the dredging that must be done, noise and light pollution from � are stacks that affects marine life, he said.

The pipelines feed-ing gas plants cause silt

to collect in the areas where the salmon lay their eggs, he said.

“I am surprised there isn’t more concern in your area about the pipelines,” said Lisit-syn.

He said Shell and Gazprom proceeded with construction of Sakhalin LNG without heeding many of the conditions laid down by Russian environmental authorities.

He said the shorten-

ing of the jetty design at a late stage in plan-ning meant more dredg-ing, followed by court

challenges against the company for dumping dredged material in the bay.

He said the differ-ence between the rich and poor is greater now after the oil and gas boom on his island, and his environmental group

can’t afford to rent a space large enough for its purposes.

During construction, about 60-70 per cent of the work force were for-eign workers, he added, and now, during opera-tions, fewer than 100 are employed.

A6 www.terracestandard.com OPINION Wednesday, February 17, 2016 Terrace Standard

Women of all ages spend lavishly on each new

beauty enhancement trotted out from hair dyes to wigs to contact lenses to alter eye colour and major plastic sur-gery.

Women shave or wax ev-ery hair from their bodies then glue extensions to their eyelashes, or one hair at a time directly on to their skin where once they grew eye-brows.

But last week Ghome-shi’s lawyer asked a ques-tion I expect had never been asked in court before. The lawyer asked the complain-ant who alleged Ghomeshi had yanked her hair hard, “At the time of the alleged assault, did you have hair ex-tensions?”

A valid question, given that today so much of a woman can be fake.

Oldtimers recall this song about an elderly man’s wed-ding night:

We got married last Fri-day, my girl was right there beside me,

Our friends were all gone, We were alone side by side.

We were so happily wed when, She got ready for bed

thenHer teeth and her hair,

She placed in a chair side by side.

One glass eye so tiny, One hearing aid so small

Then she took one leg off And placed on a chair by the wall.

I stood there broken hearted, Most of my girl had departed

I slept on the chair.There was more of her

there side by side.We’ve become accus-

tomed to dyed hair, eye shad-ow, wigs worn even by those untreated for cancer. The newest fad is fake freckles.

For $28 you can order on-

line a faux freckle kit, Freck Yourself. The kit comes with 72 self-adhesive stencils and a rollerball formula similar to sunless tanner and allows users to apply several lay-ers of faded freckles on to the skin. The natural pattern doesn’t smudge and lasts two days. Applied every morn-ing, though, the pattern can last from four to six weeks.

Natural redheads are not-ed for freckles. I’ve always considered freckles attrac-tive. But comments on the Freck Yourself article report red hair and freckles leading to years of painful bullying.

One 30-year-old Ameri-can studying � lm-making produced a Net� ix documen-tary titled “Being Ginger” about his tribulations grow-ing up a redhead.

A classroom teacher de-lighted in threatening to hang the � lmmaker, when he was 7, upside down like a pinata for the other kids to beat. In-terviewed by the � lmmaker the teacher showed no em-pathy for the misery he had caused the boy.

When he was 12 and 13 he was so ostracized from the school cafeteria by one girl who sat at a table with his two best friends his principal

armed him with a laminated permission slip to eat lunch alone sitting on the � oor near the gym.

Any and all attention paid to him as a youngster came because of his red hair. Rela-tives fawned over him. Visi-tors felt free to stroke his hair much as strangers pat a preg-nant woman’s belly. Being the centre of attention pained him so much that as an adult observing little kids cringe as they are singled out by rela-tives or strangers brings him to tears; he knows how ex-posed and ridiculed the tots no doubt feel.

As part of his documen-tary he attended an annual Redhead Fest in Breda, Netherlands where in 2013 a record 5,000 redheads from 80 countries gathered for a week of music and story-swapping.

For once he felt accepted, an average person drawing no special attention. And though he had never before felt any af� nity to another ginger, he met a young wom-an from Boston. They shared a mutual attraction.

If his school yard bully-ing is typical for redheads, why would fake freckles be so trendy?

Fake freckles? What’s next?

ESTABLISHED APRIL 27, 1988

AS SCHOOLS analyze low grad rates and seek to improve educa-tion, perhaps it is worth clarifying the purpose of schools. The modern-day assumption is that school is re-sponsible for preparing students for all the challenges of life, but is that realistic? Don’t parents and families have primary responsibility to pre-pare children for life?

That is not to say that schools don’t have a very important role. Schools teach children and youth basic skills such as reading, writing and math. Students learn problem solving, de-velop creativity, and develop social skills through interactions with peers and teachers. But research shows that the primary in� uence that affects and shapes young people are their par-ents and family life. Children learn behaviour patterns at home, which then translate into conduct at school and in the world at large.

Schools report that one of their biggest challenges is having students engage and apply themselves to their studies. This is something only indi-vidual students can change, but en-couragement at home that hard work can bring rewards and satisfaction should not be discounted.

The biggest in� uence parents can have on their children is through ex-ample. That is, children need to see parents working hard in their jobs and at home. Despite mistakes and challenges that come with parenting, children often see their parents’ mo-tives and are impacted by integrity.

Build up your climate change bank account

Terrace Standard Wednesday, February 17, 2016 VIEWPOINTS www.terracestandard.com A7

Imagine the following sce-nario: you’re seated in a res-taurant in Paris contemplat-ing the innumerable issues

and sticking points in the recent climate negotiations.

The negotiations you’re con-sidering address an amorphous, apparently slow moving, vague threat seemingly far off in the future and probably somewhere else. Still, the scientific method that has transformed human exis-tence for the better over the past two centuries stresses how seri-ous the issue is, and you’ve been doing your best to comprehend it.

Suddenly, a terrorist (who cares what political or religious motivation) enters and threatens the restaurant with his AK-47. What do you do? Dive for cover, naturally.

True, if we don’t deal with cli-mate change, your grandchildren likely won’t have much of a fu-ture. But, if you don’t survive the imminent bullet spray, you won’t have any grandchildren. Climate be hanged! Duck!

Everyday life is practically

composed of continuous local ‘emergencies’ like an insurance premium coming up, Grandma going senile, Johnny flunking math. The immediate future con-stantly demands our attention.

Some people make their liv-ings focusing on the long term, though. Financial planners con-vince RRSP contributors to de-posit monthly contributions into one or another ‘pay yourself first’ (and the planner, of course).

High carbon life is undermin-ing these long-term prospects, however, regardless of the size of our tax-free savings accounts. Perhaps we need some profes-sional climate planners to make cold calls or go house-to-house selling climate change behavioral adjustment plans. But it would be a hard sell, and analogies can only go so far.

Markets in anything tend to function as population aggrega-tors of the two great human emo-tions: fear and greed. Mutual fund salespeople are particularly good at addressing both of these emotions. Even climate activists

plan cap-and-trade markets to ap-peal to the same motives.

It’s easy to conjure fearful im-ages. We see systematized pov-erty creating misery in Canadian communities and we are bom-barded by sanitized news reports of foreign refugees victimized by war, disease, and drought. We try to act, and do our best not to look away.

It’s also easy to present appeal-

ing visions modeled by wealthy celebrities, well off grandparents visiting with gifts for the kiddies, and ‘freedom 55’ beneficiaries kicking back on a sailboat. The message is clear: invest and save, supposedly guaranteeing a com-fortable future or suffer in penuri-ous misery in your old age.

Convincing individuals to take action on the climate issue is far more difficult. I might walk ev-erywhere, install solar panels, avoid international travel (flying once to Europe is roughly the CO2 pollution equivalent of driv-ing for a year). But unless mil-lions of others do likewise, aside from some ‘feel good’ moral smugness for me, Richmond and Florida may still end up under water, California agriculture may still be destroyed by drought, and the Inuit may still have to give up hunting seals on sea ice.

Climate challenge requires seeing things in a way that is quite alien to our biological con-ditioning, which focuses on the here and now, rather than on the everywhere and some time in the

future.But green technologies are

continuing to build an efficiency edge that will enhance both our physical health and our financial well-being, a potentially power-ful motive for adopting them. Better insulated homes and build-ings not only save expensive and dirty fuels, but are quieter and more comfortable. And walking and cycling (when and where feasible), and rapid transit and speed trains are generally less stressful and more healthful than paying excessive sums for private vehicles, insurance, air pollution, traffic congestion, street mainte-nance, and fuel.

We ought to be able to sell the fears of Hurricane Sandy, the Cal-gary floods, and increasingly fre-quent wildfires, just as we ought to be able to sell the appeals of comfortable, efficient, non-pol-luting shelter and transportation. Paying ourselves first through sensible climate action becomes more appealing by the day.

Poverty costs far too muchAn open letter to:

Hon. Christy Clark,Premier of BC, Victoria, BC

Dear Premier:I am writing to you as a

professional social worker because I continue to be very

concerned about the effects of poverty on British Columbi-ans.

I work with people who are suffering these effects every day and I am highly aware of the personal and social costs of poverty. I am additionally concerned because we need

not pay these costs in British Columbia.

British Columbia can afford to bring every citizen up to the poverty line, with the amount of income at which one can pay for the basic necessities of life. Adequate income will significantly reduce or elimi-

nate many poverty-generated costs we as a society are now paying in terms of additional social services, additional edu-cational and criminal justice costs and especially additional health costs.

AL LEHMANN

Dear Sir:We are warned repeatedly not to send cash mon-

ey in the mail. What is a person to do? Here are two examples of what not to do.

My wife and several of her sisters were to travel to London, England to attend the wedding of their niece. Not wishing her to carry an excess amount of cash I purchased a bank money order from the TD Bank in British pounds and paid the resulting exchange rate and fees.

Attempting to cash this money order at the bank of her sister in London my wife was informed to take it to the TD Bank. Not knowing where that was or how to get to it she borrowed money from her sister instead.

On her return to Terrace she attended at the TD bank here (where she had her accounts) she was informed that a transfer fee would apply to bring British pounds from Vancouver, as her sister want-ed to be repaid in that currency. She declined and brought it to my attention, wherein I ended up in talking to the branch manager with the result that the money order could be cashed at par at a TD Bank that had British pounds on hand, such as the TD’s main tower branch in Vancouver.

We then found out that the money order given by me to the bride-to-be was also not cash-able. It was in US$ as the honeymoon was in Hawaii. The newly married couple returned to Vancouver but were not able to cash it at the TD branch in Vancouver where her aunt and brother have accounts. That bank told her to deposit it in her own bank in London (where she would have to pay conversion fees) or give it to me to cash which would then once again present the situation of sending cash in the mail.

I then had a second discussion with the local bank manager. The manager was not able to inform me of a safe way that money could be sent abroad.

ALTERNATIVE TAX & BOOKKEEPING

February 5, 2016 — The Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency (the Agency) is making available funding to support participation of the public and Indigenous groups in the federal environmental assessment of the Red Mountain Gold Mine Project, located northeast of Stewart, British Columbia.

Funding is available for eligible individuals and groups to enable their participation in upcoming steps of the environmental assessment, which include reviewing and providing comments on the Environmental Impact Statement or on the summary thereof, the draft Environmental Assessment Report, and on potential environmental assessment conditions.

Applications received by March 7, 2016 will be considered. Recipients and the amount of funding allocated will be announced at a later date.

To apply for funding, or for more information on the project and the environ-mental assessment process, visit the Agency's website at CEAA.gc.ca (Registry reference number 80093) or contact the Participant Funding Program by writing to [email protected] or by calling 1-866-582-1884.

The Proposed ProjectIDM Mining Ltd. proposes to construct, operate and decommission an underground gold-silver mine located approximately 18 kilometres northeast of Stewart, British Columbia. As proposed, the Red Mountain Gold Mine Project would produce approximately 1000 tonnes of mineral ore per day and 275,000 tonnes per year, over an operational mine life of �ve to seven years.

Red Mountain Gold Mine Project — Federal Funding Available

2016-2020 Financial Plan

The proposed 2016-2020 Financial Plan will be considered by the Regional District Board at its regular meeting on Friday, February 19, 2016 in the Board room of the Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine, #300-4545 Lazelle Avenue, Terrace, BC. The Board meeting commences at 7:00 p.m.

In a recent speech to the C.D. Howe Institute, Michael McCain, Maple Leaf Foods CEO, quoting a recent study by the Canadian Medical Associa-tion, noted that food insecurity increased the cost of health care by up to 121 per cent.

Health authorities report that the average month-ly cost of nutritious food for a family of four in B.C. is $914. A family of four on basic social assistance would receive $401 exclusive of shelter allowance. Even the addition of the $358 Family Bonus only brings that amount to $759. This makes everyone on social assistance food insecure and prone to a long list of expensive health effects including low-weight babies, increases in asthma, diabetes, heart disease and other chronic health conditions. Ade-quate food is basic health prevention. Working Brit-ish Columbians being paid the present minimum wage are also operating under similar � nancial and nutritional stresses.

Because of poverty, our province pays $1.2 bil-lion a year in higher health costs. Similarly, we are paying $745 million in policing and criminal jus-tice costs for poverty-related crime. Conservative estimates suggest that we are paying several billion dollars in poverty-related services and lost produc-tivity. Ensuring that all citizens receive income at

the poverty line would cost half of that. I am writing to ask your government to raise so-

cial assistance to the poverty line so that British Co-lumbians requiring such assistance do not suffer the preventable effects of policy-created poverty. Simi-larly, increasing the provincial minimum wage so that full-time work produces an income at or above the poverty line will mitigate the negative effects of poverty for working British Columbians.

B.C. public policy should not create and main-tain poverty and stress that make it almost impossi-ble for people to succeed. Public policy should cre-ate conditions for well-being that allow people to be more resilient and to improve their life situation. Raising social assistance rates and the minimum wage to the poverty line will provide a foundation upon which people can build successful lives.

Thank you for your attention to these matters in the coming year. I look forward to hearing from you as you remediate these pressing issues of pub-lic policy.

Sincerely,Robert Hart

Poverty causes ill health

My wife and her niece were able to go to the TD Tower branch in Vancouver and fol-lowing discussions with personnel there, includ-ing a manager the re-sults were:

The money order in British pounds which could not be cashed in London was redeemed in Canadian dollars at current exchange rate then converted back into British pounds at current exchange rate.

The money order in US dollars which the niece was not able to cash in Hawaii was converted to Canadian dollars and paid to her in cash, again at the pre-vailing exchange rate. This rate was to the bank’s advantage as the Canadian dollar value had dropped since the money order was pur-chased.

The TD bank per-son stated that as my wife was a long time customer she would discount the exchange fees, which amounted in a 31.1 per cent de-crease. The moral of the story is bank money or-ders are not a good me-dium for money transfer internationally unless one is prepared to de-posit them in their own bank for collection.

City hosts transport plan open house RESIDENTS, CITY staff and planning consultants mingled Feb. 10 at an open house, part of the $75,000 Transportation Mas-ter Plan commission by the city.

Those visiting the city hall event were given red and green stamps and asked to place them on a large map laid on the table. Green stamps could be placed on positive features of Terrace, while the red stamps were stuck to problem spots.

These suggestions from the public are being used to guide the plan being put together by McEl-henney Consulting over the next four months.

The company’s spokesperson for the project, Prince George-based senior transportation engi-neer Glenn Stanker, said that the secret to the success of thriving cities is having a vision and plan.

“Vision is important, and the number one thing is having a

plan. When you apply for a grant, they will ask to see a plan that supports the project,” he said.

So what will Terrace’s trans-portation priorities be? This is what Stanker and his team, along with the city, are working on.

Aside from the public consul-tation, there is also an online sur-vey to gather what residents want in terms of improving transpor-tation for vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians.

There are many categories in the city project being looked at, and prioritized.

These include the tops and bottoms of Lanfear and Kalum hills, as well as the widths and safety features.

Options discussed at a com-mittee of the whole meeting also held yesterday included widen-ing the street and/or sidewalks on these hills, and possibly closing Pheasant St. to thru-traffic at the

bottom of Kalum in order to im-prove pedestrian flow.

Stanker said his team will look at options to making the hills safer in the short term, as they are steep, narrow, windy and much used by all sorts of com-muters who tend to “compete” for room.

Intersections are also being studied and rail crossings.

Stanker said that Lakelse and Sparks is an example of a chal-lenging intersection. So is Eby and Lakelse which he said “may not be intuitive to drivers”. Also, the intersection of Thomas, Mc-Connell, Cooper around school hours. He said improvements will be looked at for these.

The next phase is data collec-tion followed by detailed analy-sis in April, then May will see improvement options, then in June the review will be submit-ted, followed by a final report.

Around Town

By NAKKITA TRIMBLE

OUR MATERNAL lineage is deeper than skin deep and goes back tens of thousands of years.

The spiritual ancient art of “tattooing” goes back just as far.

This practice is one of the oldest professions Indig-enous people have. It goes back before colonization.

We know it can be an ex-hausting conversation, but this is meant to strengthen your knowledge on Indig-enous “Tattooing”.

When colonization began and Christianity spread, so did the belief that “tattoo-ing” was a shameful, sinful practice.

For the Nisga’a this hap-pened in the 1800s.

Today “tattooing” is still discouraged, but that’s changing within First Na-tions communities.

The Nisga’a and Tlingit ancestral ties go back to ar-ranged marriages between our nations.

These nations learned from one another. Nakkita (Nisga’a/Tlingit) and Na-haan (Tlingit) toured to six different communities shar-ing with people from all na-

tions about their approach to reviving cultural tattoo-ing.

Six communities were toured, including Prince Ru-pert, Terrace, as well as the entire Nisga’a Nation.

The two “tattoo” artists learned from one another strengthening the re-connec-tion between the nations.

Nakkita fell into tat-too apprenticeship in 2012 based on a reoccurring dream where she tanned a bear hide, stretched it over a frame and tattooed her fam-ily lineage onto the hide us-ing ink she made from the ashes of her smudge.

For Nakkita her goal “is to help people connect to their maternal lineage in an educated manor, learning from their house chief and speaking with their elders.”

Nakkita wants her clients “to know at least one story from their family history so that when they talk about the imagery on their body, they can educate people about our culture”.

Nahaan began tattooing at the request of his family and community.

For Nahaan “the spiritu-ality and re-connection to our past is most important”.

His goal is for “people to become more culturally re-sponsible and active on a daily basis”.

With similar goals and approach to “tattooing” Na-kkita and Nahaan inspired one another.

They shared cultural knowledge, techniques, and approaches to progressing the artwork further into cul-ture.

They also worked on composing a song that talks about the spirituality and re-connection of our nations through “tattooing”.

Our oral stories are the foundation of our history lessons.

These lessons are rein-forced and remembered by our visual language we call art today.

Our visual language was “tattooed” onto the bodies of leaders and people who were knowledge keepers.

If your Nisga’a name had a “tattoo,” that “tattoo” would be passed down along with the name to keep the history alive and well.

It is the responsibility of the wearer to educate the viewer of our history, cul-ture, and identity.

For more information or if you would like to get some Northern Ink done

by either of these artists, please contact either Na-

kkita Trimble or Nahaan on Facebook.


■ One of a kindJAMIE NOLE’S artwork “Ete’e meduh” (Thank You Father) is one of the pieces on display that’s part of the Freda Diesing School of Northwest Coast Art annual exhibition at the Terrace Art Gallery. The show features first year students in the upper gallery and grads in the lower gallery and is on until Feb. 27.

Songs for SyriaTHE LATEST fundraiser to help bring Syr-ian refugee families here raised a good bit of money towards its goals.

The Songs for Peace fundraiser raised $1,678, said Sasa Loggin, a member of the group Terrace Sponsors Syrian Refugee Fami-lies.

Next up is the Circle of Cultures, an eve-ning showcasing local talent and cultures from all around the world who live in the region.

Performers include dances from the Philip-pines, Latin America, India and more.

There will be an International Appy Snack Tasting prepared by the Multicultural Associ-ation while the food lasts, set for 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. March 12 at the REM Lee Theatre. The Circle of Cultures starts at 7 p.m. Tickets are available at Misty River Books and Skee-na Diversity Society.

Anyone who would like to perform, vol-unteer or participate in any way can contact Skeena Diversity Society.

Keeping beesFOR ANYONE interested in keeping bees, there is a basic beekeeping course starting the first Saturday in March for four Saturday ses-sions. See the Skeena Valley Apiary Facebook

page for more details, course outline and reg-istration form.

Recycle old cellsIF YOU have old cell phones laying around, now’s the time to get rid of them.

A box has been set up by the desk at the Terrace Public Library. When it’s full, it will be sent away to be recycled by the Jane Good-all Institute. The institute suggests taking one last “cellphie” before recycling it and sending it by instagram or tweeting it be posted on the institute’s website.

The idea behind the recycling effort right now is that cell phones contain valuable min-erals, including gold, tin, tungsten and tanta-lum (coltan). Control over the mining of these minerals is fueling a civil war that has killed more than five million people, and is destroy-ing forests and chimpanzee habitat.

Canadians create demand for these miner-als by frequently upgrading their cell phones. Recycling our phones reduces the demand for minerals. Reusable phones are refurbished and redistributed in developing markets. Some are donated to hospitals for patients who need ac-cess to emergency 911 calls. Parts that are not reusable are broken down and recycled. Funds raised from recycling phones will help to sup-ports the work of the Jane Goodall Institute.

Census jobs available in cityWITH THIS spring’s census comes local job opportunities and the return of the long form census.

Fourteen enumerators will be hired for Terrace plus three crew leaders and three crew assistants, said StatsCan’s di-rector of western region and northern territories Lorne An-derson. There is also going to be a small remote census office here on Lazelle Ave. where the workers can get more materials if needed but they will primar-ily work out of their homes, he added.

The number of enumera-tors and crew needed is based on population and geography because population alone isn’t enough, said Anderson.

For example, on popula-tion alone, the Northwest Ter-ritories and its 80,000 people would be estimated to need three crew leaders but that wouldn’t work because of the massive geography that has to be covered.

Terrace is similar to a cer-tain extent.

“For your area, there’s some challenges with people living in more remote areas and how

to get there,” he said. Enumerators are paid $16

per hour plus expenses for mileage and crew leaders $19.91 an hour.

As for the long form cen-sus, which has had its fair share of negative comments as it’s mandatory, the fact is that only some people will have to do it.

It’s mandatory for every-one to complete the short form census and one in four house-holds will be chosen to take the long census, which is also mandatory.

The last census in 2011 was similar except that the long form census was renamed the National Household Survey and it was voluntary so people could decline to do it and just do the mandatory short form census instead.

“It’s not onerous. I’ve done it in the past,” said Anderson about the long form census.

The short form is about nine questions and the long form is 49 questions, he added.

Everyone doesn’t have to do the long form because it would take a long time to tabulate re-sults and valuable data can be

gathered with only a sample of households, said Anderson.

A date for the census has been set out but Anderson ad-vises everyone to do the census when they get their notification in the mail.

The date of May 10 has been set as a marker: someone who dies on May 9 shouldn’t be counted on the census or a baby born on May 11 shouldn’t be counted, he said.

Census job recruitment is

ongoing and people can apply for jobs online at census.gc.ca/jobs or call 1-877-325-2016.

According to information on the StatsCan census web-site, in 2011, Terrace had a population of 11,486 and in 2006, that number was 11,320, a 1.5 per cent difference.

When the Terrace “met-ropolitan areas” were con-sidered, the population was 15,569 for 2011 and 15,420 for 2006, a change of 1 per cent.


CENSUS JOBS and information about them are available on the federal government’s 2016 Census website.

IN CHAR Toew’s column in the Feb. 10 issue of the Terrace Standard, the lead sentence mistakenly began with the word “Half.”

It should have read “Uber to be legal in Edmonton after city council vote.”

SKEENA NDP MLA Robin Austin says he will be pressing the provincial government to follow through on its commitment to boost regional tran-sit.

He is zeroing in on the existing BC Transit Skee-na Connector service between Kitamaat Village/Kitimat and Terrace as an example.

Started in the last decade, the weekday-only ser-vice also runs east on Hwy16 to the Gitaus subdivi-sion and west to New Remo.

It is financed by BC Transit, the Terrace and Kit-imat municipal governments, the Kitimat-Stikine regional district and the First Nations governments of Kitaamat, Kitsumkalum and Kitselas.

Because it is one way for medical patients to travel back and forth between communities, the Northern Health Authority also signed on and at the beginning was providing nearly 60 per cent of the operating costs.

That figure reflected, in part, the health authority agreeing to pick up some of a BC Transit shortfall because its budget was frozen when the service was introduced.

But the health authority, citing the need to bal-ance its Skeena Connector spending with other transportation commitments under its Northern Connections transportation program, has been gradually reducing its annual subsidy – from nearly $187,000 in 2009 to $160,000 and then to $80,000 as of this year.

The result is that local governments are now having to pay more to maintain the service because of the health authority reduction.

That has drawn Austin’s attention because the province has made a commitment to put more money into northwestern B.C. regional transit be-ginning this year.

“The province has said it will be increasing tran-sit spending. But here it looks like it is giving with

one hand but then taking away with the other,” he said.

The promise by the province to increase regional transit is part of a $3 million plan to improve trans-portation services connecting communities along Hwy16.

It was announced late last year in response to continued calls for reliable and safe transportation along Hwy16 and is to play out over the next sever-al years. Within that $3 million is the commitment to spend $1.6 million over the next two years to maintain or increase transit along the northwestern portion of Hwy16.

Austin noted that calls for more regional tran-sit were first made nearly 10 years ago at a Prince George symposium held in response to the numbers of missing and murdered women along Hwy16.

“And it was even mentioned in Wally Oppal’s report and that was in 2012,” said Austin of the for-mer provincial attorney-general’s inquiry of how police handled the investigation into murdered and missing women from Vancouver’s Downtown East-side.

No decisions on how the $3 million is to be spent have been made but, based on comments made from transportation minister Todd Stone, de-tails are to be released this spring.

Northern Health Authority official Jonathon Dyck said the phased-in reduction of its annual Skeena Connector payments began several years ago.

He added that the new annual figure of $80,000 matches what it provides for similar medical pa-tient travel services elsewhere.

“On Haida Gwaii we have a partnership for service between Queen Charlotte and Masset and that’s at $80,000,” said Dyck of a subsidy provided.

“Wherever we can, we work with partners,” he said.

MLA to press gov’tfor more transit

THE NASS Valley has a temporary RCMP commander from Ter-race while it awaits the choosing of a new offi-cer in charge.

Sgt. Shawn McLaughlin is in tem-porary charge since Sgt. Jim Fenske was transferred to the Grand Forks detachment after a two-year posting in the Nass.

McLaughlin, nor-

mally a watch com-mander in Terrace, was asked to fill in and took the job.

“I’m thankful for the opportunity to be here and work for the Nisga’a Nation and ex-cited about the future,” he said.

He doesn’t mind that the change is temporary until a permanent re-placement is found.

“It’s one of my fa-

vourite places. It’s gor-geous up here,” he said about the Nass Valley.

“Unbelievable scen-ery and people are fan-tastic and very welcom-ing and are more than willing to make me feel welcome.”

In recent weeks, police arrested at least one person on charges of giving alcohol to a minor in the Nass and McLaughlin says that

stopping bootlegging and other alcohol prob-lems is a priority.

“We just want to see responsible use of it (al-cohol),” he said.

McLaughlin said highway patrol officers will also try to increase their road patrols to decrease the opportu-nity for people to bring liquor into the Nass communities for illegal sales.

It is now putting out a request for proposals to � nalize the design and then for the renovations which will mean shutting down the pool for an extended period.

Leclerc said the timeline for the project has yet to be � nalized, but construction could begin as early as late 2016 and potentially be � nished in 2017, depending on how the proj-ect tendering process goes.

The total amount in federal gas taxes being returned to B.C. was $73.3 million for 57 capital and ca-pacity building projects in B.C. com-munities.

Also in the northwest, Smithers received $4 million for improvements to its airport terminal, and Prince Ru-pert and Port Edward received grants for under $100,000 for smaller proj-ects.

A statement from the transporta-tion ministry says its engineers “have reviewed the signal timing at the in-tersection and have con� rmed it is functioning as designed and is appro-priate for the traf� c volumes.”

Ministry of� cials have also met with the RCMP and “will continue to closely monitor this intersection.”

Flemming said he sees how there can be a difference between design and reality when human error comes into play.

“Everything on paper looks good, and it doesn’t quite pan out. We are relying on the human element when driving comes in,” he said.

What’s happening is that drivers crest a rise while turning left onto the

overpass from the west of Keith and are focussing on the turn but can’t see traf� c which also crests a small rise and is continuing through from the east, he said.

The company that did the initial design concept, R.F. Binnie and As-sociates Ltd., for the $2.3 million overpass reconstruction project won a Deputy Minister’s Consulting Engi-neers Award earlier this month.

The major part of the overpass re-construction work involved adding a second lane for traf� c coming off of the overpass from the north and turn-ing eastward along Keith.

That’s intended to ease what had become a bottleneck on the overpass which is part of Hwy16.

JOIN THE MOVEMENT AGAINSTBULLYING ON FEBRUARY 24

Recognizing cyberbullyingBefore social media became so

prevalent, instances of bullying were somewhat easy to recognize. Howev-er, with a good majority of children now engaged in digital networking and social media, bullying may not end with the ringing of the school bell, and evidence of bullying may not be so readily apparent.

According to Cyberbullying sta-tistics from the i-SAFE foundation, more than half of adolescents and teens have been bullied online, and about the same number have en-gaged in cyberbullying. More than 80 percent of teens use a mobile phone regularly, making it the most popular form of technology and a common medium for repeated cyberbullying.

Cyberbullying takes place through electronic technology and di� ers from traditional forms of bullying. Cyberbullying can occur via text messaging, blogging, updates to social media sites and/or phone conversations. What makes cyber-bullying more di� cult to detect and remedy than traditional bullying is that sometimes this type of bullying is veiled in secrecy.

� ose who engage in cyberbully-ing can create aliases and accounts under false names, allowing them to covertly engage in bullying behavior. As a result, tracking down bullies

can be challenging.Although cyberbullying is on the

rise, there are some things that par-ents and children can do to help put a stop to such unfortunate instances.

* Parents who feel their child is not emotionally ready for the responsibil-ity of a digital device can hold back on purchasing a smartphone or choose one with very limited features. Some schools set strict limits on phone usage at school, and children who go only from school to home and vice versa may not have the need for an “emergency phone” that can open up a window for trouble.

* Adolescents and teens should feel comfortable talking with their parents without the fear of repri-mand. Otherwise, they may hide instances of cyberbullying or not know how to broach sensitive topics like bullying. Parents can engage in conversation with their children often and stress that the doors of communication are always open.

* Teens should be made aware that cyberbullying is a very real occurrence and is not just other kids “having fun” or “joking.” If behavior is repetitive and hurtful, it should be made public and addressed.

* Parents can monitor and limit their children’s personal accounts. Some smartphone and tablet appli-cations can be mirrored on the main account, enabling parents to see incoming text or video messages.

* A laptop or desktop computer should be placed in a shared space so that usage can be monitored. Parents can restrict tablet or smart-phone usage to public areas.

* When online, children should

be advised not to share personal information. Social media sites may be used by bullies to gather sensitive information about a person that can be used against them at a later time. Children should be urged to keep passwords secret and to never give information such as birthdays, phone numbers and addresses to people who aren’t close friends. Friend lists should be restricted to only those people students interact with frequently to minimize the chance for bullying or other inappro-priate behavior.

* Teens who have been bullied can keep evidence of the bullying and may bene� t from talking with a counselor.

Cyberbullying is a growing con-cern for educators and parents and has far-reaching implications. Get-ting smart about this phenomenon can help staunch new cases of online bullying.

Adults should remain diligent in monitoring what kids are doing online. Bullying can take place through digital devices, such as mobile phones.

What is a Chamber of Commerce?This is a question I hear all the time – “What is a Chamber of Commerce”? This is either followed by “Why should I join the Chamber of Commerce?” or “But what does a Chamber of Commerce do?”I usually answer with “The Chamber of Commerce does many things, which means there’s usually at least one reason for everyone to join”. I view the Chamber of Commerce as having three levels:• Large-scale – on an international, Canadian, and Provincial level the

Chamber provides an advocating voice for the business community.• Locally – the Terrace Chamber holds events, networking opportunities

and bene� ts that pertain to the business community of Terrace, Thornhill and surrounding area.

• Within your business: businesses can access different bene� ts that � t their needs speci� cally, such as medical/dental group insurance, merchant services discounts, or fuel discounts.

So that’s the general idea – can I get some details?Chambers of Commerce were started as organizations who could speak to government on behalf of the business community. For example, the BC Chamber, every year, creates a Policy and Procedure Manual, made up of all the recommendations from BC Chambers and is given to MLAs and Cabinet Ministers in the province. These manuals have recommendations from all the regions of BC, addressing issues pertaining to nearly all, if not every, of BC’s provincial government ministries. With an average of 40 new recommendations each year, Chambers of Commerce are truly the Voice of Business.The Terrace Chamber is not only your voice of business, but your bene� t provider, networking opportunity, event host, and marketing assistant. • Bene� ts are available through a variety of providers. Some of the most

utilized bene� ts include Chamber Group Insurance where small busi-nesses can optimize the cost of medical and dental coverage through the mass purchasing power of the Chamber. Payroll assistance, fuel discounts, Purolator discounts, and Merchant Services special rates are other well used bene� ts.

• Monthly luncheons with a guest speakers are held in Terrace. Last year we heard from Stantec / RDKS, TransCanada, RCMP (Terrace), Air Canada, the City of Terrace, WestJet, Bank of Canada, Port of Prince Rupert, Brian Lee Crowley, and BCLC. Not only do these monthly events give an oppor-tunity to hear what’s happening in our community, but also network with other professionals and hear Chamber news.

• The Business Expo and Business Excellence Awards are hosted by the Chamber every year to celebrate, recognize, and showcase the amazing businesses in our area.

• The Terrace Chamber knows it can be tough to get the word out about your latest success, next big event, or even to introduce yourself to the community. That’s why we offer marketing assistance. We send out email blasts on behalf of members and non-members, as well as have a Member News section of the monthly newsletter. We even have advertising space the website home page! Get in touch with the Terrace Chamber to utilize these marketing tools. Receiving the Email Blasts and newsletters keep members in the know with what’s happening in Terrace.

As I said before – there’s usually at least one reason to join the Chamber of Commerce, if not more than one! For more information on membership, or how to sign up, get in touch with the Terrace Chamber today! 250-635-2063 or [email protected] or www.terracechamber.com. We’re located at 3224 Kalum Street, downtown Terrace.

The businesses that participate in this annual event put an amazing amount of effort into setting up their booths and showing off their businesses and organizations. We hope you will plan to be there to take it all in.Our other big event each year is the Business Excellence Awards Gala.

These policies are vetted, and voted on and are then presented to the Provincial Government ministries. The BC Chamber’s grassroots policy-development process is second-to-none in British Columbia. A copy of the current Policy and Positions Manual can be found on at www.bcchamber.org/policies .For the past ten years we have been fortunate to have local representation on the BC Chamber board of directors, Rod Cox.

ALLOYCORP CON-TINUES to cut costs while waiting for mar-ket conditions to im-prove in hopes of one day developing its mo-lybdendum deposit at Kitsault on the north coast.

The company, which holds the prop-erty through subsidiary Avanti Kitsault Mining Ltd., mothballed its fa-cilities at the location last year and several weeks ago closed its Terrace office, resulting in three job losses.

“It’s not the easiest thing to do,” said Alloy-corp safety, health and environment vice presi-dent Shane Uren of the closure, which leaves two company employ-ees in Vancouver and five in Toronto.

“But we knew the dynamics of the proj-ect had changed by last October /November. Our project was based on moly being in the $10 to $12 [per pound] range,” said Uren of the product which is used as a strengthening agent

in steel. “But now with moly in the $4 to $5 range, it’s just not vi-able.” To date the com-pany has put approxi-mately $160 million into the property since purchasing it in 2008.

The money was spent updating and re-fining data on the de-posit from when mining was done there previ-ously, and in preparing new mining plans to nail down costs, con-ducting socio-econom-ic, environmental and other studies leading to approval from the

federal and provincial governments and the Nisga’a Nation. Begin-ning in 2014 and into 2015, they built a road to its site, prepared the area for mining equip-ment and an accommo-dation camp and rebuilt a bridge owned by the provincial government.

All of that work, which has been topped off by a renewed ex-amination of the mine development plan to further detail costs, has Uren convinced there will be eventual devel-opment once the moly market revives.

“It’s still a robust project,” he said. “At $10 to $12 [a pound for moly] we’d be under-way.”

The company had already costed out its project budget at ap-proximately $1 billion and, until the price of moly began dropping, they had high expecta-tions of receiving need-ed financing through an agreement with a collection of European banks.

With that expectation of financing, Alloycorp had been anticipating a full on construction start by the middle of last year.

But despite the mothballing, Alloycorp continues some work to meet conditions tied to approval of the project.

That’s chiefly two studies, one being ocean and the other be-ing freshwater.

“We’re in the process of securing the financ-ing to meet those com-mitments for 2016,” said Uren.

Never a large com-pany, Alloycop, once known by its subsidiary name as Avanti, had about 25 people on pay-roll at the height of its development work, us-ing contractors and con-tract employees for spe-cific work as needed.

But its employment planning called for 300 jobs to be created over a mine life of 14 years and possibly longer de-pending upon further ore body development at the location.

Bike paths, seniors housingmake up spending wish list

Shane Uren

Miners close local office

IMPROVED WALK-WAYS for pedestrians, more bike paths, more assisted living for se-niors, a recreation cen-tre for youth and build-ing up local farming all made the list Feb. 11 as Skeena – Bulkley NDP MP Nathan Cul-len asked locals how the federal government should come through on its promise to increase infrastructure spending.

Cullen’s session was one of a series he’s holding in advance of the first budget of the Trudeau federal govern-ment which is expected the end of March.

Increasing spending on infrastructure by as much as $10 billion, even if it meant going into debt, was a key portion of Trudeau’s election platform going into last October’s elec-tion.

“This is an important thing to do,” Cullen told the 45 or so attendees in the arena banquet room, as he encour-aged them to prioritize what is most needed in the community. “We are going to see a budget in four to six weeks.”

“As a Member of Parliament I don’t apply for funding,” he said af-terwords. “I help groups and organizations and I hope this informs them as much as it does me. What happens next is we sit down, and the city starts making some

applications. There are different streams, and based on this, hopefully we have a much higher level of public buy-in, so it’s not just some mayor or my personal agenda that’s validat-ed,” said Cullen.

“Ultimately, we

want to be able to say this came from the citi-zens who chose to par-ticipate. That has a lot more credibly when you are fighting for fund-ing.”

Cullen added that the exact amount the north-west might receive has

not been determined, and that usually infra-structure spending is generally divided per province and given out through grants.

Loved and Missed Forever in Our Hearts

Your Loving FamilyXox

SHARON LALONDE June 6, 1943 - February 15, 2014

I often sit and think aboutThe years that have passed byAnd of the happiness and joyThat was shared by you and I

I think of all the laughter The smiles and the fun

And before I even know itMy tears have once again begunFor, although it brings me comfort

To walk down memory laneIt reminds me how, without youLife has never been the same

In Loving Memory of Guilherme Cabral DemedeirosApril 1, 1940 - February 22, 2015

Forever in Our HeartsWife Maria Amelia, Sons Peter and John,

Daughter Lucy and Extended Family

and Friends

God saw you getting tiredand a cure was not to be,so He put his arms around you and whispered,"Come to me."With tearful eyes we watched you,and saw you pass away,and although we loved you dearly,we could not make you stay.A golden heart stopped beating,hard working hands at rest.God broke our hearts to prove to us,He only takes the best.

Holkestad, Robert Anker (Rupe)

Together once again with his loving wife Betty, who predeceased him on March 15th, 1998.He will be sadly missed and lovingly remembered by his sons, Kirby (Pat), Brian (Rose) and Don (Wendy).Forever in the hearts of his grandchildren, Natalie (Phil) Nundal, Ryan, Danielle (Haruki) and Nicole Boileau, Jillian, Derrick (Sharon), Dawn (Kevin), Shawna, Dana and Brett Holkestad. Rupe was a proud great-grandpa to Tiona Holkestad, Logan and Jesse Peters, Evan and Axton Holkestad, Sam and Charlie Nundal, and Logan Noguchi.Rupe was a ‘Lifetime Member’ of the Rotary Club. Before his health declined, he was often seen on his daily walk around town, at the golf course for 9 holes with his friends or sitting in the stands at a high school basketball game. He was a very kind and gentle man and will be sadly missed by many relatives and friends.A ‘Celebration of Life’ will be held at a later date.

TERRACE’S LAURA Dale will showcase her hard-earned � gure skat-ing abilities with the best of Canada at Special Olympic Nationals March 1-6. Complete with a variety of grace-ful twists and jumps, Dale’s skating routine is set to an emotional key-board masterpiece from Romeo and Juliet.

“I love it all,” she said when asked about her favourite part of the routine.

With a gold-winning performance at provincials last year, Dale spent the year perfecting her routine and strengthening her � tness.

“She actually improved in every area,” said skating coach Jennifer Kuehne of Dale’s � tness training, adding that she is grateful to the City of Terrace who donated her a free pass to the gym and pool during the off-season. Dale also worked hard on her back spin and can now hold it for � ve complete revolutions, Kuehne said.

“She is very musical... Laura would be one of our best skaters in Terrace at our creative event - where you turn on a piece of music and you just let them skate freely and move to the music. That’s de� nitely the thing she is the best at and the thing she

enjoys,” Kuehne said of Dale. “Even in her solo that is planned, there’s a couple of spots where she has her own creative moves… she gets lots of comments on it. When she goes to

competitions, the judges are just in awe of how creatively she can move her body.”

Kuehne said not every provincial winner goes to nationals, but Dale was chosen with nine other B.C. skat-ers by a selection committee after provincials.

“Just winning provincials is a su-per big deal. Then a few months later we got information that she made it to nationals… we’re really excited for her,” Kuehne said. “It’s going to be a great experience for her no matter what. It’s a great opportunity.”

The top athletes at nationals will advance to represent Canada at the Special Olympics World Winter Games in Graz, Austria in 2017.

Preparing for the national stage in a few weeks, Dale said she is nervous but she likes performing in front of a large crowd.

This year Dale said she will be “thinking about our people,” that is, skating in memory of two of her grandparents who passed away last December.

Dale will � y to Corner Brook, Newfoundland, for nationals with 126 athletes and nine � gure skaters on Team B.C. and her mom, Jody Kelly, will also travel east to support her daughter in the competition.

Terrace skater competing at nationals

YOUNG AND budding gymnasts from across the northwest are com-ing together to compete in an invi-tational meet at the Terrace Peaks Gymnastics Club this Saturday, Feb. 20.

With 75 athletes from Smith-ers, Kitimat and Terrace, the event will put young gymnasts to the test with routines on the � oor, beam, vault and bar, doing leaps and handsprings, circles, cartwheels and much more.

Nine-year-old Terrace competi-tor Carissa Nenninger said she is looking forward to competing.

“It’s fun. You get to show off some skills you’ve learned,” she said.

The weekend she is “getting a bit more experience competing in front of people,” she said, adding that she hopes to go to provincials later this year.

Nenninger started competing in gymnastics two years ago, but she has been in gymnastics for as long as she can remember.

“It’s fun to learn new stuff, new skills like soul circles and hand-stands on the bar,” she said of the sport. “I like doing roundoff back handsprings.”

Eight-year-old Piper MacCor-mac from Terrace is new this year to competition.

“I’m really nervous,” she said, agreeing that being in front of peo-

ple is hard. Asked why she decided to com-

plete, Piper said “new things,” add-ing that she likes the challenge of

the sport. “I just like doing the hard stuff

and then being challenged,” she said.

“I like having a more strict coach because they make me do the level of things I’m at. They don’t push me too hard or do things too easy,” she said of the coaches.

The Terrace meet this weekend has 19 young Terrace gymnasts signed up to compete.

Coach Karl McPherson said it is important for their development as athletes.

“It is a perfect opportunity for our young athletes, from a devel-opmental point of view, to have competitive experience,” he said, adding that this way they can test and see if they enjoy competition, before spending money to travel outside of the zone to compete.

For the older competitive ath-letes, it is preparation for provin-cial championships, which are coming up in Langley April 14-17.

This Saturday’s annual fund-raiser at Terrace’s Peaks Gymnas-tics will have admission by dona-tion. The junior olympic level one athletes compete at 9:30 a.m. with awards at noon. Level 2 and 3 com-pete at 1 p.m. with awards at 4 p.m. All the other levels compete at 5 p.m. with awards at 8 p.m.

As the vehicle neared the end of Weber’s fence line I made out the familiar colours of an RCMP cruiser, and stepped out

of my truck. The car stopped where the photographers’ van had earlier. It had only been about � fteen minutes since I’d made the call to 911.

“I expected a Conservation Of� cer,” I said, as the cruiser window powered down.

The of� cer leaned over the console. A ri� e sat bolted and upright between us. There was a computer on the dash.

“They just went off shift when the call came,” he said.

RCMP of� cers have changed dramati-cally since I was a kid back in the � fth and sixth decades of the last century. There are still physically formidable of� cers in the force, to be sure, but all statures, both sex-es, and folks from a variety of ethnicities wear the uniform now. As kids we looked up — both literally and � guratively — to white Anglo Saxon Protestant men, all of them over six feet, it being a requirement of the job, and many of them wore neatly trimmed moustaches. RCMP of� cers wore a service revolver strapped to their waist back when Tim Horton was a promising young Maple Leaf blue liner. They didn’t wear bullet proof vests or carry tasers and ri� es. Computers and all the electronic accoutrements of modern day policing

were decades away. Still, those of� cers had a commanding larger-than-life presence that instilled respect and made them seem even taller than they were.

I told the young con-stable I’d heard 7 shots in all, adding that there were fresh truck tracks when I walked up the road and fresh moose tracks beside them, and I suggested that it was suspicious that the shots rang out at dusk.

“It seems to me there that there’s a good chance someone is jack-ing a moose,” I said.

“Do you know the what the hunting regulations are?” he asked.

“Can’t shoot anything at this time of year. Hunting season’s closed.”

“What about First Nations?”A short, sick feeling passed through me.First Nations. I hadn’t thought of that. “Yeah,” I conceded, “they can shoot a

moose at this time of year.”The of� cer looked at the foot deep car-

pet of mushy snow on the road. “Do you think I can make it up there?”

he asked. The cruiser looked like a Toyota 4 Runner.

“It’s iffy,” I ventured. “I wouldn’t want you to get bogged down.”

“Maybe I’ll take over from you,” he said.

“Whoever’s up there has to come out, but it may be a while,” I sug-gested.

I thanked the of� cer, returned to my truck and drove off.

I thought about how good it was that the po-lice had responded with alacrity. There was com-fort in that. I thought about how the changes

in the National Police force mirrored those in our society, how a technological pres-ence had taken over from a physical one, but my thoughts kept returning to the vul-nerability of the moose in the islands of the lower Skeena, in the valley of the Kitsum-kalum, and, in particular, where they are most exposed and vulnerable in the valley I was leaving now.

That was midweek. The weekend came. It was a long one with Family Day tacked onto it. Karen and I spent Sunday catch-

ing up with chores. When the stat holiday arrived, partly motivated by an urge to see if somebody had been up to some mischief on the Copperside road, I proposed that the family - down to Karen, Oona, and I these days - hike the Creek Trail, the same path I’d followed the day of the twilight fusil-lade.

As we crossed the Highway 16 Bridge, I looked downstream and saw a trio of � sh-ers preparing to � sh Channel 3 despite the wet and cold weather. We made our way to the pullout at the Old Bridge and after pulling on our crampons, made our way up the road entering the bush at the start of the horse trail.

A cloudless sky would have been a nice touch for family day but having the tem-perature a few degrees above freezing early in February was almost as pleasant.

The passage of anglers over the path-way had made the trail icy and hard. We were thankful for our walking poles and the spikes fastened to our boots. At the � rst opportunity, I looked down on the river and saw it was colouring up.

We passed through the site where Bax-ter’s Mill once stood, crossed the stream feeding the tail of Baxter’s Rif� e where the Chum Salmon used to spawn then walked under the old trees toward Blackie’s when a ri� e shot startled all three of us.

Poor moose 3

By JACKIE LIEUWEN

WITH TWO tough losses at the All Na-tive Basketball Tournament, Terrace WAKS had a disappointing bottom-place � nish last week.

In their � rst game on Monday, Feb. 8, Terrace WAKS (“brothers” in Nisga’a) were pitted against Vancouver and lost 74-53, intimidated by the strong team and packed gym.

“The crowd, the teams – Vancouver and the defensive intensity – it’s differ-ent. It was very intense,” said coach Ter-ry Monture. “We played 32 games [dur-ing the regular season] and even though we won [in several close tournaments], we did not have a single game as intense as the game we had here.”

“We were de� nitely intimidated by a very good team,” Monture said, explain-ing that they held back on some oppor-tunities early in the shot clock, and then were forced to throw shots up before the buzzer.

“A lot of it had to do with a packed building. Until you are on the bench and you play it, you don’t realize how it affects you,” he said. “The place was packed. It’s just crazy! The intensity lev-el of that game, you have to be there to experience it.”

In the � rst quarter, the WAKS played a strong game, but still wound up down 8-18. Monitor said the second quarter was what really did them in. Vancouver scored 24 points, earning a strong lead which the WAKS could not recover, de-spite a strong second half.

“We outscored them by � ve in the second half, once we settled down and played our game, but by then it was al-ready too late,” he said. The WAKS lost the game 74-53 to Vancouver, with the main Terrace points earned by Kenneth Monture who scored 12, Andrew Nyce 11, and Tyler Moore 7.

Dropped into the second pool, the Ter-race WAKS faced Hazelton on Wednes-day, Feb. 10, which was a strong, close game ending in a tough 74-73 overtime

loss.The WAKS trailed Hazelton close to

seven points all the way through the � rst half of the game. Then, down by 12 at the end of the third quarter, the WAKS ramped up their pressure in the fourth, pressing a full-court defence and out-scoring Hazelton 19-7.

As the clock wound down to the last 30 seconds, the Terrace WAKS were down by three.

Andrew Nyce got possession of the ball and dribbled fast and hard up the court, launching a three-pointer into the air as the buzzer sounded through the gym. The ball swooshed through the basket for an epic, game-tying � nish, launching the teams into overtime at 63-63.

Both teams played a strong overtime game, but the WAKS missed too many free throws and eased off their pressure which cost them the game.

“The big difference in the overtime was a mistake I made,” said Monture. “We pressured them in the fourth quarter

and that’s where we outscored them 19-7, and we didn’t do that in the overtime.”

The � nal score was 74-73 for Hazel-ton, a tough swallow for the WAKS, who beat Hazelton three times in their league season earlier this year.

Monture said that besides easing defensive overtime pressure, other key things that cost the WAKS the game were three-point shots and free throws. Hazelton hit 16 three-pointers, 12 more than the four landed by Terrace WAKS.

“What also hurt us was that we went 15 for 31 from the free throw line. We missed 16 free throws, in a one-point game,” Monture said, adding they made only 6 of 12 in overtime.

Having aimed and expected to � n-ish in the top four, the Terrace WAKS’ bottom place � nish means the team will have to qualify for the tournament next year – unlike this year when they had a bye from their 8th place � nish in 2015. The WAKS are now practising to com-pete in a Kitimat tournament in April and in Kamloops in May.

WAKS frustrated at All Native

THE SKEENA-VALLEY Snowmobile Association is gearing up for their biggest event of the year, open to all snowmobilers on Sunday, Feb. 21.

Snowarama is an an-nual 15-kilometre ride for snowmobilers, who head up to the � rst cabin on Sterling Mountain where the club has a free barbe-cue with hamburgers, hot dogs and smokies for all the riders.

“It’s a great community event,” said club secretary treasurer Gerry Comer-ford.

“It’s the biggest event of the year for our club… a family event,” he added.

“The big thing is to try and get not only you as a individual rider, but also

your family members and friends to come out for the day. It’s just getting ev-erybody out, get together and enjoy the social aspect once we’re up at the cabin with the barbecue.”

The event is open to anyone in the community with a snowmobile and raises money for the local Lions Club.

The trail will be fresh-ly groomed, with open slopes for riders who want to hit fresh, un-groomed powder on the ride up.

“We would like to see somewhere between 75 and 100 people; that would be great!” Comer-ford said, adding that turn-out is weather dependant. “We always hope for a nice day.”

A MAN who was stabbed during an alter-cation in which he was the aggressor and a sec-ond man have pleaded guilty to assault, and thanks to mitigating factors were handed a lighter sentence than they could’ve been by a provincial court judge here.

Joseph Jesse Joynt and Jared Christopher Bolton pleaded guilty to one charge of assault each and were each sentenced to a condi-tional discharge with 15 months of probation.

They must abstain from intoxicating sub-stances or drugs, except prescription drugs, for the first 12 months of their probation.

They must also do 15 hours of community work service and have no contact with the vic-tim.

“Crown supports a discharge and if not for that support, you would have a more difficult time getting a discharge from me,” said provin-

cial court judge Calvin Struyk in his sentenc-ing.

“Two on one and kicking [someone in the head] doesn’t leave me very sympathetic.”

On September 5, 2014, police were called out to a bush party near Christy Park in the Hor-shoe and broke it up around 2 a.m., crown prosecutor Jordan Petty told the court before making his submissions for sentencing.

After leaving the party, the victim was on his longboard and passed Joynt, who was riding a bike and started calling him names, the prosecuter continued.

The victim stopped and told Joynt to say those things to his face.Joynt got off his bike and started towards the victim, who pulled out a pocketknife that he was known to carry, think-ing that Joynt was going to assault him and be-lieving the knife would be a deterrent, the court heard.

Joynt punched the victim in the face and he fell to the ground and

also stabbed Joynt in the lower left hip or abdo-men. Joynt punched and kneed the victim in the head – it’s not known how many times he did this, said Petty.

At some point, Joynt realized he had been stabbed and two oth-ers, including Bolton, rushed to help him and assaulted the stabber by kicking and punching him, but he managed to flee.

Bolton and Joynt chased him and the vic-tim hid under a vehicle in a driveway, so the pair left, Petty said.

The next day, the victim went to the po-lice to give a statement.

Joynt and Bolton gave police their state-ments, which formed a lot of the evidence against them.

They were coopera-

tive, admitted their re-sponsibility and their parts in the assault, said Petty.

Petty also noted that neither Joynt nor Bolton had prior crimi-nal records and pleaded guilty before the case went to trial and asked Struyk to consider a conditional discharge with probation for 15 months and 15 hours of community work ser-vice for each.

Defence counsel for Joynt, Dallis Winsor, said his client admit-ted that he had a bit too much to drink at the bush party.

He rarely goes to parties anymore and his alcohol consumption has greatly diminished, court heard from the de-fence counsel.

Joynt has not been in any trouble since that bush party, he said.

Even though Joynt was stabbed, the stab-ber was not charged because, as Winsor un-derstood it in his sub-mission, the police be-lieved that the stabber acted in self defence.

Joynt is prepared to accept that but is cer-tainly upset since he

was stabbed, said Win-sor.

Ken Anderson, defence counsel for Bolton, said his client also acknowledges that he drank too much at the time of the assault and that this affected his judgment.

Bolton saw his friend Joynt in a fight and thought the other person who had a knife had started the fight, said Anderson.

Bolton is no longer into the party scene like he was back then and has shown remorse for his actions, he said.

“I can tell you Mr. Joynt and [the victim] are lucky. It doesn’t take much for a blow to the head to cause

significant injury,” said Struyk before sentenc-ing the pair.

No matter what the circumstances are, kick-ing someone in the head is out of line, he added.

“When it’s two on one, it is also a recipe for disaster,” he said.

Struyk gave both men credit for pleading guilty and for making good decisions since the altercation by mov-ing forward to being contributing members of society.

“I wish you all the best and hope I nev-er see you back here again,” said Struyk.

No charge informa-tion was ever sent to Crown prosecutors for consideration.

Pair sentenced in stabbing incidentTwo men pleaded guilty to

assault and were each sentenced to a conditional discharge with 15 months probation and must abstain from intoxicating substances or drugs.
