Nisga’a to reap gold mine taxationTHE NISGA’A of the Nass Valley are to be double beneficiaries from the construction of a gold mine near Stewart.

In addition to Nisga’a citizens having employment and business opportunities arising from the Brucejack gold mine owned by Pretium Resources of Vancouver and for the Nisga’a Lisims Gov-ernment to receive payments and royalties from the company, the Lisims government is also in line

for a share of provincial mineral tax revenues from the mine when it goes into production in 2017.

Details are still being negoti-ated behind closed doors indicates a statement from the provincial government. “Any details on ne-gotiations remain confidential until agreements are concluded,” added the statement.

The groundwork for a share of mineral taxation dates back to the Nisga’a land claims treaty of 2000

which laid out Nisga’a geographi-cal spheres of influence.

And last year the province signed an agreement with the Nisga’a to negotiate project-by-project economic and community development agreements.

A portion of the Brucejack property is within the area over which the Nisga’a have an influ-ence.

The province has negotiated more than a dozen economic and

community development agree-ments with First Nations and when applicable to mines, provide the latter with 35 per cent of the net mineral taxation collected each year.

Nisga’a Lisims president Mitchell Stevens said he was con-fident a deal with the province for a share of Pretium’s mineral taxation would be signed in due course.

“It’s just a formality,” said Ste-vens of the agreement which would

follow an already-established pro-vincial policy on sharing mineral taxation.

“I don’t see any problem with it.”

While the deal between the Nisga’a and the province for the Brucejack mine will be the first between the two for a mine going into production, they did sign an earlier agreement for another pro-posed mining project.

News In BriefFireworks allowed

THE TRADITION continues: fireworks are al-lowed in the city between Oct. 24 and Halloween, however, the use of them will be enforced accord-ing to the nuisance bylaw.

Council voted Sept. 28 not to change the bylaw despite noise and frightened animals coming up as an issue last year and a ban or curtailed hours con-sidered.

Councillor Sean Bujtas said his dog broke a tooth when it panicked from the loud noises once.

The options were to ban the fireworks complete-ly or to reduce the days when they are allowed. But the local minor hockey association sells fireworks at a successful fundraiser every year, and limiting their use only to Halloween was seen as too strict because of all the events happening on other days.

Council decided to take an educational ap-proach, with responsible fireworks messages to be posted where the fireworks are being sold.

Teenager killedRCMP OFFICERS are continuing their investiga-tion into an accident early last week which took the life of a 16-year-old girl.

The single vehicle accident involving a car took place the late afternoon of Sept. 27 on Hwy113 ap-proximately 24km north of Terrace.

The vehicle carrying six people left the road, en-tered a ditch and rolled, Terrace RCMP stated in a release.

“Four of the passengers were transported to hos-pital suffering from various injuries, none of which were believed to be life threatening. Unfortunately, one passenger, a 16-year-old girl, succumbed to her injuries at the scene,” police stated.

Police later stated the teenage girl was not wear-ing a seatbelt. Involved in the investigation are a collision analyst and a collision reconstructionist.

QSC FLAGGER Mark Harlow on a newly-paved stretch of Haugland Ave. on the Southside.

ROAD CONTRAC-TORS are racing the weather in an attempt to finish the city’s sum-mer projects before the winter season makes it impossible.

And according to city public works direc-tor Rob Schibli, every-

thing appears to be on course for this to hap-pen.

On Sept. 30, paving was finished on Haug-land Ave. on the South-side.

A majority of the 24 residents along the 5200 and 5300 blocks

of Haugland, the west-ern-most stretch, had decided to pay part of the repaving cost of their gravel road as part of a Local Area Service agreement.

The road was un-paved, uneven, dusty, and in need of repair.

Residents will pay approximately $300,000 of the $1.32 million Haugland proj-ect through a 20-year tax surcharge, with amounts varying de-pending upon each property’s frontage.

The other project to

wrap up is a complete city works infrastruc-ture rebuild of the 4700 Block of Walsh Street, which includes the in-stallation of an asphalt sidewalk down one side.

Minor work on the block was ongoing last week.

Murdered teen’s injuriessurvivable, jury is toldTHE FIRST week of a three-week murder trial of a Terrace teen who died in Kamloops three years ago revealed how the 16-year-old died, her boyfriend’s sobbing reaction when inter-viewed by police hours later and that despite major injuries, her life could’ve been saved if she had received imme-diate medical attention.

Damien Taylor, 21 at the time of his girl-friend’s death, was charged with second degree murder in con-nection with the death of C.J. Fowler, 16 at the time, on Dec. 5, 2012.

Taylor and Fowler were last seen in the early morning hours of that day, at Royal Inland Hospital, where they had gone after Fowler expressed worry about chest pains from crystal meth use.

At the hospital, the two were told she was pregnant. Tests later showed the baby was Taylor’s.

They were seen leav-ing the hospital arguing.

The man who found her body told the 11-per-son supreme court jury he was walking his dog at 1 p.m. that day when his canine led him to what at � rst appeared to be a pile of clothes.

But he quickly real-ized it was a First Na-tions girl clad in a tank top with clothes around her and a concrete block on her chest.

Two other people ar-rived and called 911.

Fowler’s stepfather Glen Wilson testi� ed that Taylor had moved into Wilson’s Terrace home to live with his girlfriend, 16-year-old Fowler. Wilson told the jury he agreed to let Taylor move in.

While he was wor-ried the pair had too much time on their hands – Fowler wasn’t in school and Taylor didn’t have a job de-spite Wilson’s attempts to help them do both – trouble didn’t start un-til a friend of Fowler’s from Kamloops came to visit and stayed over in late November 2012.

Wilson said he came home from a trip to Kitimat to � nd C.J. and two friends high on what he guessed was a mixture of cocaine and chemicals.

He kicked the friends out and Fowler left with them. She re-turned home days later, but told her stepfather she wanted to go to Ka-mloops with Taylor and her friends.

Less than a week later, beginning in the early evening of Dec. 4, 2012, Wilson said he texted back and forth with Fowler from 8 p.m. to the early hours of the next day — the day she was slain.

The last text Wilson received from Fowler, about 3 a.m., said, “I love you Dad. We miss you.” He testi� ed he tried to contact Fowler at about 8 a.m., texting her: “Are you awake?”

There was no reply.Wilson bought

Greyhound tickets for Fowler and Taylor for the noon bus, but Taylor made the trip north by himself.

Police intercepted Taylor in Prince George at the Greyhound sta-tion the same day Fowl-er’s body was found.

RCMP Cpl. Jay Gri-erson testi� ed Taylor was treated as a poten-tial witness and put up for the night in a hotel beside the downtown police detachment.

After Taylor checked out the next morning, police searched his room. Grierson said of-� cers found a ripped-up bus ticket in the toilet and socks in the gar-bage can.

The Crown said those socks were stained with blood matching Fowler’s DNA.

They eventually seized his backpack.

Inside, they found an SD card believed to be from Fowler’s phone and a breaker bar — a mechanic’s tool similar to a socket wrench used to free seized bolts.

Laboratory testing of that breaker bar found Fowler’s DNA on it.

Taylor wasn’t ar-rested and charged with Fowler’s murder until a year later.

In his testimony, Dr. Gilles Molgat, a foren-sic pathologist, detailed injuries to Fowler, con-sisting of blunt force trauma to her face and head.

Her skull was caved in on the right side and her jaw was smashed.

Molgat said he be-

lieves Fowler died from asphyxiation after her tongue was pushed and trapped in her airway.

A 56-pound rough-edge concrete block was found on her chest with her blood on it, leading Molgat to be-lieve it caused most of her injuries.

While the trauma to Fowler’s head and face were severe, Molgat said she may have sur-vived her injuries with prompt medical atten-tion.

Fowler had crystal meth and marijuana in her body, but the amounts were not le-thal.

Late last week,

Crown prosecutors showed a video record-ing taken in the Prince George RCMP detach-ment on the evening of Dec. 5, seven hours af-ter Fowler’s body was found.

On the video record-ing, Taylor told RCMP Sgt. Todd Wiebe he had last seen Fowler at Roy-al Inland Hospital in the late evening of Dec. 4 or in the early-morning hours of Dec. 5.

Taylor was intercept-ed at the Prince George Greyhound bus depot that evening and agreed to go to the detachment for questioning about an investigation in Ka-mloops.

“I really don’t know what’s going on,” Tay-lor told Wiebe.

The of� cer then told him Fowler was dead.

“No way — what happened?” Taylor blurted out.

Several times in the next 10 minutes on the recording, Taylor choked and broke down in tears.

When Wiebe left the interview room to get a calendar, Taylor rocked in his chair and shook his head back and forth.

“She’s the love of my life,” he told Wiebe.

The trial is sched-uled for three weeks.

Native vote benefits Cullen

FILE PHOTO

VOTERS IN communities such as Gitlaxt’aamiks in the Nass Valley have been strong supporters of Nathan Cullen.

By JOSH MASSEY

NEW DEMOCRATIC incumbent Nathan Cul-len should continue to profit by strong support within the aboriginal voting community in this federal election, says a University of British Columbia politi-cal analyst.

Cullen, seeking re-election for the fourth straight time, has been the overwhelming fa-vourite among aborigi-nal voters since he was first elected in the 2004 federal election for the Skeena – Bulkley Val-ley riding.

“The NDP continue to have policies that are more sympathetic to First Nations inter-ests in general,” says Michael Murphy, who has studied aboriginal turnout from a histori-cal perspective.

In 2011, Cullen’s support within the ab-original community could be seen in places such as in the Nass Val-ley where he received 253 votes to 14 for Conservative challenger Clay Harmon, in Mori-cetown near Smithers where he received 181 votes compared to Har-mon’s 11 and at Kit-sumkalum where Cul-len out-polled Harmon by 146 to 28 votes.

The NDP’s vocal

stance opposing the construction of oil-carrying pipelines and oil-carrying tankers has been popular among fisheries-based and other communities, said Murphy.

Cullen has become one of the key figures in regional opposition to Enbridge’s planned Northern Gateway pipe-line which would pump Alberta crude to a ma-rine export terminal at Kitimat.

And he’s proposed a private member’s bill in

the House of Commons to ban oil tankers from the north coast.

Cullen’s also been strong in larger commu-nities where aboriginals make up a large portion of the population.

He’s also increased his share of the vote each time out, from 37 per cent in 2004, his first victory, to his fourth in 2011 when he received 55 per cent of the vote.

As a sign of aborigi-nal support for Cullen, one of his opponents in

his first victory in 2004 was Haida leader Miles Richardson who ran for the Liberal party.

Cullen’s 37 per cent of the vote in 2004, however, was signifi-cantly higher than Rich-ardson’s 21.5 per cent.

The Liberal vote has declined each election since (falling as low as 3.61 per cent in 2011) with Cullen being the beneficiary.

Meanwhile, the Con-servative vote has re-mained locked in the 33 per cent range in every

election since 2004.Aboriginal voting

did increase slightly with the on-reserve turn out rising by 2.1 per cent between 2008 and 2011 in this riding from 47.6 per cent to 49.7 per cent averaged out over 81 on-reserve polls.

According to Mur-phy, neither the current federal Conservative government or previ-ous federal Liberal ones have done particularly well in gathering the aboriginal vote.

The string of Lib-

eral governments from 1993-2006 started off with strong aboriginal support but then exited on a bad note, said Mur-phy.

“At the end of the [Jean] Chretien era, in-digenous people across Canada were kind of getting fed up, they were like well, we start-ed off pretty good but a lot of the policies com-ing down at the end of the Chretien era didn’t look great,” said Mur-phy.

He cited proposal

Liberal aboriginal gov-ernment legislation which First Nations leaders said resembled the Indian Act.

As for the current Conservative govern-ment, Murphy says its policies have not pleased the aboriginal electorate either.

“The Tories have done a number of things that have been incred-ibly unpopular. The removal of the envi-ronmental protections which really got the Idle No More movement up and running being one,” he said.

And while the NDP has never been elected to govern Canada, posi-tions taken have solidi-fied the party image as friendly to the cause of aboriginals.

That said, Murphy also believes the poli-cies and promises of the NDP, for instance call-ing for an inquiry into missing and murdered aboriginal people, is more based on princi-ples and less on strate-gy, because of the small overall percentage of the vote that First Na-tions wield across the country.

Historically, aborigi-nal people were denied the right to vote until mid-century, he added, and many choose not to vote to this today.

New cards being sentRESIDENTS OF the tiny community of Cedarvale east of here along Hwy16 are getting new voter information cards with accurate information on where they can vote in this federal election.

Cards originally telling them they could either cast advance ballots or ones on election day Oct. 19 in Hazelton drew protests because of the 50 kilo-metre distance between the two communities.

But now they’ve been told they can vote 19 kilo-metres away in Kitwanga which is where they cast ballots in the 2011 federal election.

“All affected Cedarvale registered voters will re-ceive a replacement [voter information] card,” said Elections Canada official Dorothy Sitek last week.

She said the new cards will have a notice in red in the bottom right hand corner telling the recipient that it is a replacement card.

Sitek said it’s important that all voters pay atten-tion to the polling station addresses on the back of their voting information cards as they can only vote at a polling station associated with their address.

That’s different from, for example, provincial voting rules in which voters can cast ballots at any official voting place.

Elections Canada won’t even release a list of the locations of its 2015 voting stations so as not to confuse people about where they can or cannot vote, Sitek said.

Some Cedarvale residents remain unhappy, said Mary Dalen who has lived in the community for decades.

“Of course the people here who vote all the time are furious. Elections Canada is making it harder and harder for people to go and vote,” said Dalen

in displaying the original card she received in the mail.

Even going to Kitwanga is a problem, said Dalen, because Cedarvale votes will then be mixed in with Kitwanga and area ballots.

“We want to be identified as being from Cedar-vale,” she said.

Dalen said she remembers days gone past when people in Cedarvale got dressed up to go vote in their own community.

Similar mix-ups in voting station locations ap-pear to be happening in some other locations across the country with Elections Canada officials else-where saying they are contacting those affected.

Cyclist crashes into candidate’s truck

By ALICIA BRIDGES

CONSERVATIVE CANDIDATE for Skeena-Bulkley Valley Tyler Nesbitt had the shock of a lifetime when a cyclist crashed into the back of his stationary pickup truck Sept. 29.

Nesbitt had pulled over to take a phone call on the shoulder of Highway 16 near Telkwa when a Smithers cyclist, age 67, collided with the tailgate of his vehicle at about 3:45 p.m.

The man suffered serious but not life-threatening injuries and was flown to Vancouver General Hospital.

The Terrace-based candidate said he had just hung up the phone when he heard a bang.

“It was pretty rough right off the bat because instantly right af-ter that big bang I opened my door, turned around and there was a sig-nificant amount of blood there,” he said. He called 911 and set about helping the cyclist, who had a nose bleed and was complaining about pain from his clavicle.

Another motorist, who hap-pened to be trained as a paramedic, pulled over to help and they cov-ered the injured man with a blan-ket until emergency services ar-rived. Nesbitt said the cyclist, who he later found out is a doctor, had visible bruising around his collar-bone.

Nesbitt cancelled a campaign meet-and-greet in Houston that evening and followed emergency services to the hospital.

He also made a statement to Smithers RCMP, who are still in-vestigating the incident but say there is no indication that a crimi-nal offence occurred. Nesbitt said he was not sure how the accident happened but it was lucky the man was wearing a helmet.

“I just think he had his head down and he was giving her,” he said.

Nesbitt said he plans to contact the man and check in on his recov-ery at a later date.

Anybody who saw the collision is asked to contact Const. Moleski at Smithers RCMP 250-847-3233.

CLAUDETTE SANDECKI

A6 www.terracestandard.com OPINION Wednesday, October 7, 2015 Terrace Standard

When walking my dogs, I prefer a nar-row trail only

wide enough for single � le, one that wends its way zigzagging here and there among trees, sometimes with trees so close I could scrape a shoulder on a branch stub if I daydream.

Besides the pleasure of hiking through a forest si-lent except for breezes, rus-tling leaves, and birdsong, a big plus for such trails is the barrier they present to mo-torized toys such as snow-mobiles, ATVs and dirt bikes all of which tend to be driven at excessive speeds accom-panied by deafening engine noise and the lingering pol-lution of exhaust fumes.

I and many other dog walkers go where we have a choice of several trails: the shortest one with trees too close together for any-thing wider than a dirt bike; a medium trail with a com-bination of open road width and winding single � le; and the longest measuring 5,000 footsteps on a Fitbit offer-ing both a meandering single � le trail and an open road with clearance suf� cient for trucks.

Depending upon whether the ground is dry, or slippery following rains, the time of day and hours before dark sets in, I choose a path for its scenic qualities – moss, shrubs growing close enough to whisk my elbows, and limited vista ahead.

I like to savour the im-mediate scene and anticipate what will gradually become visible as I climb a hill and weave around trees.

Plants growing close to the trail carry odours from animals and people who have passed by earlier, depositing odours for my dogs to cata-logue.

Late this spring, two

piles of wood chips, total-ling about three gravel truck loads, sprang up halfway be-tween the Fitbit trail and the Ri� e Range.

My � rst thought was a lit-terer had dumped the chips there contrary to Crown land rules. (The dumping oc-curred during the weeks re-gional district was bombard-ed with complaints of sofas, scrap lumber, and mattresses heaved out in ditches.)

Upon checking with the regional district, I was told these chips were stockpiled to be used later to map out a ski run, for cross-country or triathlon. I can’t recall which.

Last week it happened.Out of the blue, a mean-

dering length of the medium trail was ankle deep in chips, applied the full width a Bob-cat needed to manoeuvre its blade between trees. Some rotted stumps were uprooted and vegetation disturbed on either edge.

Now, this transformation isn’t nearly as upsetting as littering would be, but the chips do make walking more laborious and detract from the natural beauty of the trail.

So far my sneakers have not � lled with teeny chips

but that could happen as the chips dry out and crumble.

Not only does the depth of chips soak up energy and slow me down, they’re banked in furrows, some shallow, some deeper.

My hope is before the Bobcat considers the job done and departs the scene, it will rake the chips level, free of ridges and gullies that could cause a stumble any time or under winter condi-tions, a slip or fall.

Trucking of chips and use of a Bobcat to complete the application must cost a fair bit. Is the cost being ab-sorbed by club members or donated by supporters?

How many skiers might be expected to navigate this run? Despite signs fastened to trees proclaiming meter length at various distances, in past winters I’ve never met more than a couple skiers or observed more than a track or two.

Since these chips vastly alter the scenic atmosphere and interfere with walking ease along this dog walking trail, skiers best compensate by frequently using them.

Claudette Sandecki lets the chips fall where they may from her home in Thornhill, B.C.

Chips offer a walking challenge

ESTABLISHED APRIL 27, 1988

WITH a construction workforce es-timated to peak at 900 people over the next two years and an operating workforce of 500 over its planned 18-year operating life, the Brucejack mine owned by Pretium Resources now under construction to open in 2017 near Stewart is good news for Terrace and the Nass Valley.

The good news comes in many different ways.

For the Nass Valley, it means jobs and economic opportunity for the Nisga’a thanks to an economic bene-� ts agreement negotiated and signed within the framework of the Nisga’a Final Agreement of 2000.

The Nisga’a have signed several such agreements, the � rst being for a small hydroelectric project also near Stewart, but this is the � rst major one where there are shovels in the ground.

That the Nisga’a use Terrace as their key shopping and service cen-tre should not go unnoticed.

It’s good news for the Northwest Regional Airport because Pretium will use it as its key entry point to the northwest, further solidifying the airport’s role as a vital economic driver.

It’s also good news for Terrace itself. An operating mine life of 18 years offers more than enough in-centive for those working at Bruce-jack to consider the city as a home.

And that means more people, par-ticularly younger working families, adding to the city’s economic growth and stability.

The Mail Bag

Pipeline would bring taxes, benefits, jobs

Terrace Standard Wednesday, October 7, 2015 VIEWPOINTS www.terracestandard.com A7

There has been a lot of discussion about pipe-line projects in recent days, especially in the

Lower Mainland where urban en-vironmentalists tend to dominate the conversation.

People seem to forget the Inte-rior has a stake in these decisions, and we certainty have skin in the game.

Big cities in the Lower Main-land have been the most vocal about Kinder Morgan’s proposed Trans Mountain Expansion Proj-ect. Just over five kilometres of new pipeline would go through Burnaby, and zero kilometres would go through Vancouver.

By comparison, more than 350 kilometres of new pipeline would go through the Thompson Nicola Regional District.

Combined with what’s already in place, there will be 1,000 ki-lometres of Kinder Morgan pipe-line going through our region.

And yet you don’t hear us complaining.

In fact, the Thompson Nicola Regional District board passed a motion in May to support the Trans Mountain Expansion Proj-ect.

We did so because Trans Mountain has a 60-year history of corporate citizenship, pipeline safety, and emergency response.

Because the alternative is a huge expansion of transporting fuels by railcar, which we be-lieve brings increased rail traf-fic and greater risk to the envi-ronment and to communities in the Thompson Nicola Regional District including Blue River, Clearwater, Barriere, Kamloops, Chase, Ashcroft and Spences Bridge.

We also support the project because it will bring econom-ic opportunities to the region through local investments, prop-erty taxes, landowner compensa-tion and employment during both construction and operation.

Kinder Morgan estimates there will be $1.8 billion in con-

struction spending in the Interior.That’s a huge chunk of all the

capital spending in the region.Thousands of people, both lo-

cals and non-locals, will be work-ing in the region, and they’ll be spending tens of millions of dol-lars at hotels, motels, restaurants, grocery stores and gas stations.

The benefits won’t end when

construction is done. Trans Mountain’s municipal taxes will double and the City of Merritt will collect $500,000 a year in property taxes.

The Thompson Nicola Re-gional District alone will collect more than $13 million a year.

That’s money that will stay in our communities to support local services without coming out of your pocket or mine.

Getting Canadian oil to world markets is important for the whole country, just like getting the natural resources we produce in the Interior to markets around the world.

Imagine what would hap-pen to our region if we suddenly couldn’t get our minerals, wood or agricultural products to cus-tomers outside the province.

Of course, our support is sub-ject to the project meeting lead-ing construction and environmen-tal standards, and both we and the National Energy Board will hold them accountable to make sure

they do.Just like the Lower Mainland,

we in the Interior care deeply about the environment. Unlike many people who have grown up in the urban environment of the Lower Mainland, however, we in the Interior still appreciate the importance of natural resources to our regional economy, and to B.C. and Canada.

We also understand that a strong economy has to be bal-anced so that all Canadians are winners in the long run.

The pipeline expansion is an important decision, and we should be thinking about it from the perspective of what’s good for all of B.C. and all of Canada.

FIREFIGHTER MOVES hose into position at June 2015 fire which partially destroyed a former CN bunkhouse frequented by homeless people. It was completely destroyed by a second fire in August.

Let’s tackle homelessnessDear Sir:

Kudos to city councillor Brian Downie for his straight-forward comments on the growing homelessness issue.

With the anticipated “mon-ster” El Nino this fall and winter we are likely to see an abundance of heavy rains and/or wet snow and the thought of those, combined with the season’s north winds, doesn’t

bode well for anyone without a roof over their head.

Kudos also to Mayor Carol LeClerc for her realistic view, and comment, on the speed necessary to do something quickly.

A fast-tracked timeline, at its best, would see the direc-tion referred to city staff to bring their recommendations back to council for discus-

sion at the next meeting of the whole, then to the following council meeting, in two weeks, for formal ratification.

It would then go back to staff for action.

One scenario has them di-rected to contact the individu-als who will be asked to form a working committee.

Trying to get people togeth-er at a time suitable for every-

one is always an adventure. If stars align that meeting

could take place before the end of October. Could enough dis-cussion take place in a single meeting to bring recommen-dations to Council at the first meeting in November? In a good world, and because the snow will likely be lower on the mountains, maybe.

NEIL MENARD

Dear Sir:I am against the Pacific NorthWest LNG proj-

ect, the majority of which is owned by Petronas, that is being proposed for Lelu Isalnd near Port Ed-ward because of the way the contract was signed by Premier Christy Clark.

This project will increase our greenhouse gas emissions and put us way off target for the next 25 years.

This company will never have a tax in-crease in 25 years. This project will not lead to the number of local jobs you might think. The full life cycle of this LNG project, from frack-ing to final use, is no better than the greenhouse gas emissions from a coal fired plant.

We will never be able to reduce our impacts on the world’s climate as no changes are allowed with-out a penalty paid by Canadian taxpayers.

The contract is a template for other LNG proj-ects. There were no guarantees in the contract that two coal fired plants will be shut down in Asia to lessen greenhouse gas emissions overall. This proj-ect may only lead to more emissions.

A healthy ecosystem is based on the number of young sealife produced.

Lelu Island is a nursery for our young sealife in many different forms.

The life of this project will pass by quickly. But the ramifications of death in our waters and in our atmosphere will affect our sealife, wildlife, our people and future generations, not only in our area but in the entire world.

Let’s get on with our future which is in renew-able energy.

By 2050 we have to be off fossil fuels and this is no way to get there.

OUR STORY

Yours. Right from the start It started with a need. An idea. A different way of doing things. Some would say an even better way of doing business.A business built on the idea of being truly local and the promise of staying that way. A business that cares. For people and about people.

cash-back and equity account that grows over time, as well as the opportunity to get involved as a member-owner. These are just a couple of examples of what makes us a different kind of company. Our profi ts are your profi ts, and they are invested directly back into the community through you. The more money spent in your Co-op, the greater the rewards.

We are your neighbours and we make sustainable investments in the community we share. Doing business with your Co-op creates good jobs and economic growth close to home.

We careA strong social conscience has always been part of how your Co-op operates. Our business has been built on a foundation of community involvement and service. We will run a strong, fi nancially viable business that returns profi ts to our members and we invest in the communities in which we operate.

GrowthYour Co-op is constantly growing and expanding. As the world moves forward, evolves and expands, so does your Co-op. Our reach is ever-growing as we look at opening new locations and expanding our current ones to provide better service and products to our valued customers.

Then back to staff, or the agency selected, for action.

That action can’t happen overnight un-less it has been thought out, a decision already made, and preliminary work done beforehand.

There are many times that is done. It’s not the right way to do things and in small towns that kind of ac-tion really is notice-able and can leave a sour taste in peoples’ mouths.

In this case, because lives are at stake, ac-tion does need to hap-pen fast. It will need to be creative and for that to happen there will need to be more than one agency or group in-volved. The groups that are already involved in the homelessness field aren’t enough. If some-thing hasn’t been done already they don’t have the ability, for whatever reason.

That inaction is like-

ly in the form of miss-ing dollars, so meeting over that topic will only restate they don’t have the dollars to do what is necessary.

This is a situation different than prior years, it is more than the need for a damp shelter.

There are different, additional, groups of people without homes

this year. It is more than finding mats for those with substance abuse issues. It will need community in-volvement.

Whether it means opening church doors and floors, using unused classrooms as living quarters and an unused gym as a communal front room or a plan to

mobilize the emergen-cy response team when the thermometer plung-es, there is no doubt it will take more than a committee to discuss it while the clock is tick-ing.

My suggestion to council, use modern media - use Facebook. Start the discussion now. Ask people for their ideas. I know I’m not the only person that has thoughts on the matter.

Carol Sabo,Terrace, B.C.

Dear Sir:Regarding the gambling and hotel

expansion wishes by Pomeroy Lodge of its Chances casino here.

How much money already leaves Terrace and goes to the provincial government via the BC Lotteries Corporation that could be much more useful if it was to be spent at all the

businesses, big and small, here in Terrace.

The millions that leave Terrace via the casino for a mere tuppence that is returned as grants is disgraceful and is at the whim of the goodness of the government.

■ Toy run

MOTORCYCLE ENTHUSIASTS took to area roads Sept. 26 for their annual Christmas toy run in which they collected toys leading up to the Salvation Army’s Christmas ham-per program. Money was also collected for the cause. And, as has been the tradition, Santa Claus also came along for the ride.

CITY COUNCIL has decided which confer-ences councillors would attend this fall.

Two councillors will be attending an af-fordable housing con-ference Nov. 22-25 in Richmond.

And at least one councillor will attend the Nation2Nation fo-rum Nov. 5 at the Ter-race Sportsplex.

Being a local First Nations-led event, all of council will attend if they are available.

Councillor Michael Prevost will also repre-sent the city on the Rio Tinto Alcan Kitimat Public Advisory Com-mittee. It focuses on air monitoring and emis-sions permitting.

By MARGARET SPEIRS

AFTER SPENDING his whole career here, John Dando is retiring after 43 years as a cameraman at CFTK.

The soon-to-be 65 year old worked his last day on the job Sept. 30 with the distinc-tion of being at the TV station the longest of all the staff currently there.

“I think I’m sure I could say that I’ve probably seen 1,000 people go thru here,” said Dando in his office surrounded by items he’s used over the years.

Dando, who grew up here, started in 1972 as a photographer, taking still photos since there were no portable TV cameras then.

Everything he did was in the form of slides so the commercials he produced were “slide shows” with sound, he said. And just like slide projectors of the time, the slides had to be shown one at a time with the push of a button, he added.

The station got its first video camera in 1976 that could be taken out on the road for shooting commercials.

“The camera itself was quite small then and it was also connected to a recording dock so we had to actually build a couple of different sized golf carts to pull these things around so we powered it by a motorcycle battery,” Dando said. “It was quite heavy and we had a big wooden tripod. The other thing is that cameras back then weren’t very light sensitive so to shoot inside you had to have lights, and even outside on a grey day or to-wards dusk it was too dark to see.”

Dando got started in photography as a boy. His dad was an amateur photographer and had a darkroom at home so he helped his dad out with developing film.

He bought his own camera the year be-fore he started work and took a lot of pic-tures. Then he heard CFTK was looking for a new photographer with dark room experi-ence so he applied and got the job.

When he first started, he worked in an old building which is where the federal Service Canada offices are now and which was then known as the Nash Building.

His office was actually an old army hut where the parking lot is now. There were three people in the accounting department, an artist and Dando working in that build-ing, he said.

“So my dark room was in the washroom, so I had to sort of inform everybody I was going to go into the dark room to do some developing so they should go in if they want-ed to use it (the washroom) in the next hour or so,” he said.

When CFTK moved kitty corner in 1973 to where it is now, a building which had been an Overwaitea store, Dando built himself a new dark room downstairs.

Three years later when the station got its first video camera, he had to learn how to make moving pictures.

Dando began shooting commercials and doing news stories and then started on The Skeena Journal, a public affairs program that ran for 25 years and which won a few national awards.

“It was quite well-known around the community and around our area. Everybody was looking forward to that every week, it

was a half hour news magazine show so that was quite a long run,” he said, adding it was sponsored by Alcan for all those years.

The station then began making music videos, getting involved with Inside Tracks, a program produced through the collabora-tion of five TV stations around the province.

It featured local bands in those music vid-eos. Valdy came up one time to do introduc-tions for the show, Dando added.

For one show, he went over to the then-named Queen Charlotte Islands (now Haida Gwaii) in 1993 to do some videos for Louisa Marshall – she was recently here performing her tribute show to Tina Turner.

Along the way, CFTK also produced dra-mas, one of which was the popular 1980s series Trapper Jack.

Dando’s plan has always been to retire at age 65 as he didn’t want to work any later

than that. Leaving now gives other people a chance to do his job, he said.

And he has plenty to keep busy.“I’m physically active. I do swim and I

just bought my seniors pass at the pool and my seniors pass for Shames Mountain so I’ll be skiing not just on weekends but a few days during the week,” said Dando. He’s also purchased a new hybrid bicycle and is going to work on his cooking skills.

Seniors’ tea serves up more than lunchEVERY THIRD Tuesday the kitchen adjoining the Terrace Pentecostal Assembly’s Fireside meeting room springs to life.

A group of volunteers starts pre-paring platters of cold cuts, cheeses and raw vegetables and fruit and as-sembling a wide variety of baked goods.

That activity intensifies the next morning because from 2 to 4 p.m. on the afternoon of every third Wednes-day the church plays host to as many as 100 senior citizens each time.

It’s a social occasion that’s been going on for at least 17 years, says Nancy Hull who began as a server and took over as its organizer more than 10 years ago. She credits Dave and Elsie Hull, both relatives who have since passed away, with starting the coffee time.

“We do this 12 months of the year and it’s all paid for by the church,”

she says.Following coffee and refresh-

ments, those attending will then sing and acknowledge milestones such as birthdays and anniversaries.

On a typical afternoon, people from Terraceview Lodge might oc-cupy one table while people from the Happy Gang Centre might be sitting at another and another group from the local adult day centre sits at another.

Hull points to fresh flowers at each table. At the end of each afternoon, two will be placed in a little box for each senior to take home.

“It’s just something they can take home,” she says.

At first meats and cheeses weren’t included with the refreshments but after realizing some seniors were re-garding the baked goodies as lunch, they were then added, said Hull. “This way they get a full range of food,” she said.

THE REVELATION that mines tailings from a local company given to the city for use in mu-nicipal road work operations was contaminated with higher than average levels of arsenic and oth-er materials has spawned a series of environmental tests of local roads and water by the District of Stewart.

A local resident reported to the city hall that she had seen waste rock being crushed within city limits getting transported to the municipal services yard and stored in two piles.

In response, The District of Stewart then commissioned the McElhanney consulting firm to test the crushed ore than had been left behind and “six road-ways suspected of receiving mine tailing fill.”

According to the McElhan-ney report, tests “yielded results that exceeded applicable soil standards for arsenic, cobalt, and copper,” adding that it was a “contaminated stockpile” not suitable for use on roads “how-ever was not found to be Hazard-ous Waste.”

They then tested several roads that looked freshly gravelled to see if any of the residue showed up.

“Each roadway was reviewed visually for signs of recent dis-turbance,” said McElhanney.

Of these tests, “2 of 6 suspect roadway samples (7th Ave. and Conway St.) marginally exceed-ed the 15 mg/kg arsenic drinking water standard with concentra-tions of 16.1 and 16.7.”

A third sample also showed elevated levels of arsenic near someone’s home who had re-

quested a test. “The discrete sam-ple collected at 218 9th Avenue exceeded arsenic standards with a concentration of 16,100 mg/kg,” reads the report.

However the roadway results were not necessarily out of the ordinary: “These excedences may be attributed to natural vari-ability of arsenic in the region.” Nor was the contamination deemed to be leachable, meaning it would not seep into groundwa-ter, which was confirmed by ini-tial tests.

“We are confident that none of this material was used in our community by Public Works,” the district said in the letter it sent to residents.

Mayor Galina Durant said a former district public works di-rector, who has since left town, accepted the crushed ore from Red Eye.

Durant herself has researched the use of mine rock in road con-struction, a practice she said is done in Toronto, and thinks the former public works director had a similar notion.

“I believe that our public work directors accepted the materials for the same reason. Unfortu-nately, this material exceeds the acceptable levels of metals,” she said.

According to Red Eye offi-cial Randy Kasum, it was not his company that offered the rock, it was the city who asked for it to use as a fine gravel for roads.

“We were just taking it back up to our mineral property and they said they could use it,” he said.

Durant said Stewart residents are justified in their concern, though she said the decision to use waste rock for roads was not

a council decision.“You know we are living in an

area with active mining and an area with a high level of arsenic and people are concerned, espe-cially when we have contamina-tion issues in our boundaries,” said Durant.

Meanwhile, the ministry of the environment has also become in-volved, doing its own studies of the sites and involving itself in permitting with Red Eye.

A statement from environ-ment ministry David Karn says it received a complaint Aug. 27 from a resident about Red Eye Resources/Decade Resources crushing rock in town.

“The complaint alleged that the mine had distributed the mine waste to the District of Stewart for use as road sand in the win-ter,” said Karn.

The official added that the mining company didn’t have the proper permit to be processing waste rock.

“Since there is no authoriza-tion in place and the site may have become contaminated, the ministry’s Land Remediation Team have been involved.”

Red Eye had to transport all the crushed rock back to the mine site, and says it has had to bear the cost of that as well as the possible cost for doing tests at its worksite.

“It’s costly to have to reload it all and transport it back to their mine site,” said Kasum. “We had to haul it over there and we had to haul it back. We many have to pay for a few assays too.”

He added that he feels the sit-uation is largely political.

As for how much the McEl-hanney tests cost, the District of Stewart has yet to find out.

Store, gas bar approvedfor empty lot on Keith

FILE PHOTO

SOON TO be developed on the corner of Kalum and Keith Ave./Hwy 16 is a 7-11 convenience store and Petro-Canada gas bar.

By JOSH MASSEY

CITY COUNCIL has approved a develop-ment permit for a 12-pump Petro-Canada gas bar combined with a 7-11 convenience store kitty corner to Tim Hor-tons on the northeast corner of Kalum St. and Keith Ave./Hwy16.

But council still wants clari� cation about whether the city will be on the hook for traf� c light upgrades that may be required at the intersection.

The permit, sought by the company EXP Services, contains a provision to reduce the landscape buffer ad-jacent to the sidewalk running parallel to Keith Ave./Hwy16.

The 12-pump gas bar is to spread over three islands, council heard.

The developer wants to reduce the front land-scape buffer from 2.5 metres to 0.5 metres, and also received a vari-ance so it won’t have to include a loading area.

During debate on the issue at a City of Terrace council meet-ing Sept. 28, councillor Stacey Tyers asked if this means future up-grades, for instance put-ting a bike path along the edge, would be hindered by businesses jutting so close to Keith Ave./Hwy16, but staff-ers said that since the buffer is private proper-ty, it wouldn’t be part of a new lane regardless.

What also concerned council was the pos-sible cost to the city of adjusting traf� c signals at the intersection.

Councillor Brian Downie worried the city might end up paying for the installation of new left turn signals if the intersection became un-manageable and such an addition to the existing lights was necessary.

The city had asked the provincial transpor-tation ministry to help � gure out how to pro-ceed with the applica-tion.

The ministry ended up asking EXP to do a traf� c � ow analysis which is still underway, and which must be sub-mitted as a condition for the � nal permitting of the site.

The intersection with Kalum is the most accident-prone in town

now, and council won-dered if there would be even more of an issue with more development there.

“We recognize it’s a challenging site, as does the Ministry of Trans-portation,” said city planner Tara Irwin.

But she said the min-istry and the company spent some time study-ing the intersection and decided it was doable, though the government said it still has worries about long vehicles en-tering and exiting.

Traf� c congestion has been a problem at

Tim Hortons which is currently recon� guring its drive-thru and entry in conjunction with its soon-to-be new neigh-bour, Great Canadian Oil Change.

“It’s sort of unfortu-nate that you’re solving the congestion problem, and before that project’s even � xed, you’re piling it back on,” said coun-cillor James Cordeiro.

“This is a good prob-lem,” councillor Sean Bujtas suggested, after years of hoping that businesses would come to town.

“We have to worry

about traf� c.”And Tyers said

Petro-Canada should promise it won’t leave another brown� eld site behind for the city to clean up.

“The idea of approv-ing a future possible brown� eld is not that exciting for me,” she said.

This will be the sec-ond time a 7-11 is to op-erate in Terrace.

A previous store lo-cation, now a vacant lot beside Mark’s Work Wearhouse on Lakelse Ave., closed in the early part of the last decade.

Business owner protestssign removal by the city

JOSH MASSEY PHOTO

VIRGINIA GODDARD stands in the spot where her temporary advertis-ing signs were displayed before the new bylaw of� cer yanked them.

A BUILDING company that had been display-ing signs for advertising their new condos says the city’s bylaw of� cer unfairly removed them from the corner of Hwy 16 and Eby without warning.

“He should have phoned us to let us know he was taking them down,” said Vir-ginia Goddard, who owns Deep Creek Ma-sonry along with her husband Kevin, and who is in the process of selling a number of con-do units for their recent-ly constructed Sleeping Beauty Estates.

When the signs dis-appeared recently, Vir-ginia and Kevin had to go on a search.

“We were going around to see if our signs were getting de-stroyed, and then we eventually found out.”

What they found out was that their signs were all lying in the back of a city pickup truck at the public works yard.

The city then wrote them a letter explaining they had been in viola-tion of the sign bylaw that stipulates tempo-rary signs containing advertisements are only allowed on the prop-erty for which they are advertising and not on public or other right-of-ways.

Goddard has taken this opportunity to call for a change to an out-dated sign bylaw.

She points to the clutter of federal elec-tions campaign signs and other advertise-

ments and says that a double standard is at play.

“We should be able to promote new con-struction, new business-es, and be able to adver-tise freely and not be

one person picked on, that one business can advertise and another can’t,” she said.

She said a rule for temporary public ads could have a Thursday to Sunday limit on it.

PUBLIC VOTING begins this week for the Terrace and District’s Cham-ber of Commerce’s 2015 Business Excellence Awards.

Members of the public are being encouraged to select one of three � -nalists in 12 categories with winners to be announced at a chamber gala Oct. 24, says chamber manager Erika Magnuson-Ford.

The three � nalists were selected last week by last year’s winners from nominations submitted by members of the public.

“It went very well,” said Magnu-son-Ford of the � nalist selection.

She, along with members of the chamber’s board, spent last week contacting the � nalists.

The 12 categories this year are community booster of the year, com-pany of the year, contributor to the arts, customer service, employee of the year, executive of the year, home-

based business, newsmaker of the year, renovation of the year, rookie of the year, tourism excellence and vol-unteer of the year.

The business excellence gala will be held at a new location this year – the banquet room of the Terrace Sportsplex with tickets on sale now, said Magnuson-Ford.

A new gala feature this year is the type of entertainment – Vancouver ventriloquist Norma McKnight.

And gala diamond sponsor LNG Canada will also make a presentation.

Magnuson-Ford did note that vot-ing for the � nalists is open for one week only, giving the chamber time to notify the winners in preparation for the gala.

“So that’s why we’re encouraging people to vote early on,” she said.

Voting takes place online by go-ing to: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/2015beavote

Awards votingstarts this week

THE NORTHWEST Regional Airport’s new instrument landing sys-tem (ILS) is scheduled to go into service in the middle of October.

Installation took place starting at the end of June and was � n-ished last month.

It was then success-fully tested by a plane used by NavCanada, the federal not-for-pro� t agency which runs navigation systems at airports.

But the new system won’t of� cially go into service until the next publication of landing approaches at Canadian airports and that won’t happen until Oct. 15, says NavCanada of� cial Ron Singer.

He said the new ILS will more than ade-quately serve the airport for years to come.

“Reliability will be increased and a lot of the repairs can be done remotely which wasn’t the case before and that means no one has to travel up [to Terrace],” said Singer. “And main-tenance costs will be less.”

A piece of equip-ment called a localizer was replaced and new

antennas were put into place as part of the proj-ect which cost an esti-mated $1 million.

An ILS guides pi-lots to lower altitudes in order to see the run-way during inclement weather and then land.

The ILS being re-placed had been at the end of its life cycle and was subject to more re-pairs and down time, particularly this past April.

It was also taken out of service while the new one was being installed but fog affected � ights on just one occasion.

Northwest Regional Airport general manag-er Carman Hendry was happy with the replace-ment.

“It’s going to lower our [landing] limits a little bit more. It’s the newest and best equip-

ment,” he said.Once operational,

the new ILS will further strengthen the airport’s ability to act as a base for industrial and com-mercial activity within the region, Hendry added.

The previous ILS, installed in the early part of the last decade, helped Northwest Re-gional Airport reverse a reputation for being an airport that was un-reliable during periods of inclement weather, forcing either outright � ight cancellations or diversions to other air-ports.

76 DARPAN TMSEPTEMBER / OCTOBER 2012Reflecting The South-Asian Lifestyle

A Focus on Teens and Active AdultsWe get most of our information about the world from

our sense of sight. However, many people tend to

overlook eye health as part of their regular health

routine. Taking care of your eyes doesn’t have to

be a cumbersome task. In fact, a simple routine

eye exam can detect vision problems, eye disease

and some general health problems before you are

aware a problem exists. The Canadian Association of

Optometrists recommends eye exams at least every

year or two, yet most Canadians do not see their eye

care professional as often as they should. For people

who wear contact lenses, choosing the best product

for your eyes is even more important – not all contact

lenses are the same. As an eye care professional, I

am committed to educating my patients on the best

options available for their eyes today.

Choosing The Best Lens For Your EyesFirst, I always tell my patients that a fresh lens is

a better lens. One-day replacement contact lenses

have been shown to be the healthiest way to wear

contact lenses. They lead to reduced complications

such as dryness and irritation, fewer unscheduled

eye exams, and more satisfaction for you. Your eyes

can benefit from UV protection too! Sun exposure is

a risk factor for certain types of cataracts and per-

haps other eye disorders. Most people don’t realize

that you can get UV protection† with certain con-

tact lenses.

Finally, I look for contact lenses that allow an

adequate amount of oxygen to permeate the lens.

This is important because oxygen will help keep your

eyes white and bright. Today there are contact lenses

such as the new 1-DAY ACUVUE® TruEye™ Brand

Contact Lenses that offer all of these attributes.

These are the world’s first contact lenses to com-

bine the health and comfort of HYDRACLEAR® 1

technology with the hygiene and convenience of

a single use product. In fact, they were designed,

developed and clinically researched to provide

exceptional comfort and eye health.

At OmniEye and Vision we pride our-

selves on finding contact lens solutions to meet

the demands of today’s busy lifestyle. Drop by

and visit our dedicated team of eye care profes-

sionals at OmniEye and Vision, Burnaby or Port

Moody. With today’s vast variety and innovation in

contact lens technology, achieving healthy, happy

eyes has never been easier.

HEALTHY EYES ARE HAPPY EYES!

How important are routine eye examinations for chil-

dren? “In my opinion as an eye doctor and a parent

I think they are terribly important.”

Consider just 3 simple facts:► More than 80 per cent of a child's learning is based

on vision!

► One in five children has a vision disorder

► Once in 6 children diagnosed with a learning disabil-

ity have correctable vision problems

Good vision and eye health are critical to a child's

development. It is up to parents, doctors, nurses, and

teachers to ensure that vision disorders if they exist are

detected and treated as early as possible. Most chil-

dren are unable to communicate their problems and can

accept their vision disorders as the norm and even learn

to compensate for them. Unfortunately, by the time they

are seen by a doctor, many serious long term affects

already set in. For this reason, most campaigns of aware-

ness call for preschool and kindergarten children to have

their eye’s examined and children to be checked each year.

Getting your children examined by an optometrist is dif-

ferent than a school screening. As early as 6 months at

our clinics we check infant eyes for eye muscle alignments/

strabismus, congenital or birth defects like cataracts, lazy

eyes or amblyopia and focusing disorders. By the age of

3 children are usually able to do a full eye exam and have

their vision checked on charts that do not require children to

know their letters, have their depth perception, color vision

along with over-all eye health examined. Remember, pre-

vention of disorders is the goal in medicine; but if needed

early diagnosis and treatment leads to best health out-

comes. The eyes are no different. With eye exercises

and vision training, many muscle imbalances can be treat-

ed, hopefully preventing reading and writing problems and

depth perception issues. Lazy eyes can be treated with

drops or patching and exercises with best results before

the age of 7. If not treated in childhood, the nerve defect

lasts forever, resulting in lazy eyes, and can even prevent

vision from any further development.

Alcohol and Your EyesDid you know that alcohol relaxes the eye muscles? This results in confusing messages from our eyes about how far away things are or even where the horizon is. This is why people who have been drinking may have a hard time reaching for things and can end up spilling and stumbling. Now imagine talking contact lenses out in that condition. That’s assuming you even remember to take them out. Cleaning them and putting them away hygienically can be very dif� cult when your brain and eyes are not communicating properly.• Prepare your contact lens routine ahead of time so

you don’t have to spend time looking around. Bet-ter yet, consider getting disposable lenses on nights that you might be at a party.

• If decide that you want to get rid of those lenses at some point in the night, make sure you have your glasses. The last thing you want is to further impair your vision.

• While celebrating, use caution when opening champagne bottles. Ensure the bottle is not pointed towards anyone and ease the cork out carefully - they are under immense pressure and can cause serious injury.

Keep Kids Safe Important tips to remember to protect children’s eyes around the home:• Avoid sharp, pointy and projectile type toys such

as darts, air and pellet guns, pea shooters and bow and arrows.

• Educate your children on how to use and play safely with scissors, pencils and other sharp ob-jects

• Keep dangerous materials and chemicals out of reach of children. This includes fast acting glues, caustic materials such as toilet and oven cleaners and spray cans.

Stay Safe When You PlayCertain sporting activities can also pose a high risk to your eyes. Each year thousands of eye injuries could be prevented if more people wore appropriate protective eyewear while participating in sporting activities.• Always wear eye protection while participating in

the following sporting activities:* Ball and puck sports such as hockey, lacrosse,

racquetball, squash, badminton, tennis, base-ball, and basketball

* Paintball* Skiing/Snowboarding

• Don’t forget your sunglasses, UV protection is im-portant all year round

• When using phones, tablets, computers and gam-ing systems, give your eyes a break* Use the 20-20-20 rule. Every 20 minutes take

a 20 second break and focus your eyes on something at least 20 feet away

Did you know that roughly half of home fire deaths result from fires reported between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m., when most people are asleep?

Smoke alarms save lives. If there is a fire in your home, smoke spreads fast and you need smoke alarms to give you time to get out. In fact, having a working smoke alarm cuts the chances of dying in a reported fire in half!

From front

Nisga’a to receive taxesAnd that was for the Avanti Kit-

sault molybdenum property which was scheduled to start construction this year but has been delayed because of poor markets and not being able to completely raise the capital needed. In that agreement, the Nisga’a signed up to receive a projected $43 million a year over a planned 16-year operat-ing life.

As well, the Nisga’a are receiving $123,820 a year from the province in revenue sharing from the newly-completed Long Lake hydroelectric project near Stewart.

A direct jobs and economic ben-efits agreement between the Nisga’a and Pretium includes the latter setting a target for mine-related Nisga’a em-ployment and training within the es-timated 400 jobs Pretium will create through its planned 18-year operating life.

That provision is going to benefit the Nisga’a but other employment and business opportunities will ben-efit the region, said Stevens.

“I can’t stress that enough,” said Stevens of the impact that Pretium will have on the area.

THE MYSTERY of helicopters flying back and forth over Terrace Mountain last month has been solved.

They were part of a project to re-place 40-year-old beacons used by pilots landing at Northwest Regional Airport.

The work on Terrace Mountain in-cluded running a new power line of sufficient size so there’s enough volt-age to run the beacon when it’s con-nected.

All told, the project is worth $4.3 million project, says airport manager Carman Hendry.

The work started last year and is finishing up now, he said.

The four hazard beacons are “re-quired to help aircraft fly in here in inclement weather,” said Hendry.

“It’s strictly a safety thing to iden-tify the safe area to fly,” said Hen-dry, adding the new beacons are now equipped with LED lights instead of old-fashioned light bulbs.

There are four beacons, one in “each corner:” one on Little Herman, one on Big Herman, one on Kitsum-kalum Mountain and one on Terrace Mountain, said Hendry.

The Terrace Mountain portion of the project involved brushing out a wider right-of-way swath for a power line across a trail network.

By JACKIE LIEUWEN

TERRACE’S JAMES Tay-lor is first among all north-ern B.C. motocross racers in two classes, with a whop-ping seven wins in races this season.

Having competed in two different classes at 10 events, Taylor won first for MX-2 class with 318 points, and first in the Junior MX-3 class with 395 points.

“It was an awesome sea-son,” Taylor said.

“I had a few bike issues but managed to borrow bikes from friends, and overall I got the championship [in two classes].”

It also went well for Tay-lor health-wise, with no hard crashes all summer.

Taylor is not the only Ter-race motocross racer who ranked among the top in the northern B.C. motocross points circuit.

The Terrace Motocross Association has more than 12 families who travel regu-larly to compete in circuit races in Williams Lake, Prince George, Terrace, Quesnel and Chetwynd.

At age 20, Taylor says he travels about twice a month all summer.

“It’s an awesome sport to get into,” he said.

“I’ve got lots of friends down in other towns that I love to go hang out with on weekends. I like to call them my moto families because they take care of me all weekend while I race.”

Terrace hosts a circuit race every summer and Tay-lor and TMA treasurer Jamie Croot both said local races draw lots of racers from across B.C. because of its well-known track.

“We’ve been told it’s one of the best tracks in B.C.” said Croot.

“It’s very big. There are lots of big jumps, lots of high-speed corners ... we have great viewing, [and] you can see 90 per cent of the track when you’re up at the top viewing area.”

Taylor says it is his fa-vourite track to ride.

“Our facilities out there right now are just unbeliev-able compared to anywhere else in B.C.,” he said, high-lighting great terrain, big jumps, and space to upgrade and change the track every year.

Croot says motocross is a sport that is definitely on the rise.

Membership is up 30 per

cent from last year, and the Terrace Motocross Associa-tion has 150 members this year, she said.

Terrace racers range from four years old to over 50, with most between four and eight years, she added.

“There are lots of new families out there who are wanting to race and to check it out … We’ve had more

50cc [kids] bike racers and people out there riding than we’ve ever had before.”

Croot says the season wrap-up Fun Race on Sep-tember 20 was really good, with 10 kids on 50cc bikes and 46 racers competing.

This year, the associa-tion asked for donations at the door, and fundraised $215 to support Annabelle

Demedeiros, a four-year-old Terrace girl in treatment for stage four nervous system cancer.

“We have five-year-old girls racing, so it kind of hits home. [Annabelle] could be out there having fun, but instead she’s dealing with all this [cancer treatment],” Croot said, adding that some motocross members are friends of the family.

The northern B.C. circuit winners were honoured at a Prince George banquet put on last weekend by the BC Motocross Association.

Ten Terrace racers were ranked in the top three for their classes, including Tay-lor.

Jesse Lanterman tied for first in the schoolboy class with 379 points, and he won second in the Junior MX-2 with 314 points.

For ages four to six, J.P. Croot won first in the 50cc class with 370 points, and he had four race wins in the season.

Foster Armstrong got third in the same class and age, with 305 points and four race wins.

For ages 7 to 8, Kohl Devost was first in the 50cc class with 389 points and won three races this season.

Carter-Allen Mowbray got second in the same age and class, with 379 points and won three races.

Connor Carron won sec-ond in the 65cc pee wee circuit with 359 points and third in the 85cc class with 285 points for ages 7 to 11.

Austin Devout won sec-ond with 288 points in the 85cc for ages 7 to 11.

James Gagnon won third with 211 points in the 85cc class for ages 12 to 16.

THE KING OF THE MOUNTAIN race Sept. 26 saw 50 contestants launch forth from the Sportsplex start line.

THE KING of the Mountain race, now in its 38th year, attracted about 50 challengers this time, and organizer Christine Ewald says cold weather may have contributed to a smaller turnout compared to last year when 100 showed up.

But the race still turned out to be a tri-umph of sport and volunteerism, bring-ing the community together, with runners

navigating the thin trails on the Terrace Mountain overseen by 15 volunteers, with a start and finish line located at the Terrace Sportsplex.

According to Ewald, last year the biggest hazard was the bees, while this year it was the slippery terrain and cold weather.

The runners said it was fine once they start-ed sweating.Cont’d Page A25

O ctober the first and on cue, bands of yellow appear on the side hills.

How does Lavergne Road sound? I ask the dog, who has been giving pleading looks for the better part of an hour.

A couple of fishers are up to their knees in the Ferry Island Riffle. If there had been a half dozen, I would have assumed they were lured there by fish, but two is a poor augury from which I can infer nothing.

The Skeena is clean. The side channel below the Bridge suggests the Zymoetz is too. Five minutes later, I park next to Parr’s Field and we head down the trail. When we reach the sandy dune, a fish rolls on the edge of the fast water about two long casts from shore. Its size and silver sides, and the time of year, tell me that it’s a coho. I look upstream and see a trio of anglers fishing the shingle favoured by the clients of the Skeena River Fishing Lodge in the summer.

Last winter I ran into a pair of steel-heading carpenters who were up from the Lower Mainland. They told me they were refurbishing that lodge for the new owners, people from the Lower Mainland who ca-tered to a more sophisticated clientele than the meat fishers who patronized the place heretofore. The fishers I watch are tossing long lines with two-handed fly rods. I de-duce they are from the lodge and that they wouldn’t be working that bar if coho or steelhead weren’t about.

After a short internal debate, I tell the dog we are going back to the truck. I have only one rod aboard, my six weight Riverwatch bamboo, built by master craftsman, Bob Clay, to the tune of a taper in-vented by the late Bill Phillipson of Colorado. It’s a trout rod and a sweet one, so sweet that I’d decided only two days earlier, while fish-ing for trout on a Kalum back channel, that I’d fish it for all species ex-clusively this fall. Finlay Ferguson used to argue that a six weight was good for any fish on the Skeena save for Chinook. I’d decided to put his theory to the test.

The rod is perfectly balanced by an old Hardy Perfect, three and five-eighths in di-ameter, that once belonged to late veteran steelheader, Bob Taylor, the same gentle-man and dear friend who built the skoo-kum wading staff I swap my walking stick for after I slip on Paul Lawrence’s waders, the ones I got for a bargain basement price at the Knox United Church garage sale. As I walk down the trail again, cross the

sand, then make my way across the rocks, I’m re-minded of the downside of boot foot waders and how precarious and tir-ing their stove pipe legs are, thanks to their lack of ankle support.

At the head of the riffle, I look upstream and see that the three fly fishers are still probing the water. I look down-stream and see that the riffle is just right. It’s no more than a metre deep in its deepest part and adequately covered with a 40 foot cast. Another coho rolls. I pull my fly wallet out of the breast pocket of my raincoat.

“Don Horsfield Maker” is stencilled in leather in the upper right hand corner of its front. I recall the day when Finlay and I visited Don when he was still busy craft-ing saddles and taking them to big shows state side.

Finlay showed Don his crude wallet with a single leaf of felt stitched between leather covers. Don looked at Finlay’s cre-ation, smiled and said, “ I think we can do better than that.” My wallet is a product of that encounter, and because it keeps its

contents dry and holds so many patterns in its half dozen leaves, it is better at the task for which it was designed than any other tin or plastic competitor I’ve seen in the intervening two decades since Don as-sembled the prototype.

So what fly? The selection is easy. The Lavergne Road Riffle was one of Marshall Perrin’s favourite places to fish. The last time I met him was at Baxter’s Riffle in mid-August. He was en route to the riffle and invited me to join him. I elected to stay at Baxter’s until dark. Marshall phoned me later to tell me he’d done exceedingly well on salmon and released a couple of steel-head besides. He wasn’t bragging. He just wanted to share his good fortune. It was our last conversation. He passed on a few weeks later. I plucked one of Marshall’s favourites, a black Wooly Worm with a marabou tail and a red butt and tied it on.

An hour later on my second pass through the riffle, a fish swirls at my fly on the retrieve. I make a similar cast and a fish takes. It leaps twice, a nice fat harvest trout. If there is one trout, my experience dictates there are more. There is, one more. Another silver cutthroat. I reach my personal limit. Fishing in Paul Lawrence’s Waders with Bob Clay’s Rod, leaning on Bob Taylor’s staff, using Marshall Perrin’s fly, recently stored in Don Horsfield’s wallet.

Fishing alone, but, in a way, surrounded by friends.

THE CANUCKS meet and greet and alumni game against local players exceeded expectations as a “spectacularly successful” event.

That’s how local team organizer Steve Smyth understands it -– he would’ve been at the game for sure if he hadn’t been stuck in a hotel room in Dub-lin, Ireland waiting for a flight home.

“Fans were treated to a very competitive game and the visiting team won,” he said.

“The final score was 10-7 so there were lots of goals and the right team won.

“The local players had an absolute ball doing it and the Canucks players did as well.”

And the arena was sold out for the game.Smyth chose local players with an idea to ensure

participation by at least one player from each team in the men’s league, asking the teams to submit two names to him to choose from, he said.

He was looking for above average players to give fans a good show and men who were involved in the community, whether that meant as a sponsor a coach or those who really contribute their time, he added.

“I think you could look at everyone on that team and say ‘he’s a good human as well as a good hock-ey player,’” said Smyth.

There was no body checking but that didn’t mean that things didn’t happen: players bumped each other occasionally and broke a couple of hockey sticks, he said.

“They are NHL players after all, regardless if they’re retired or not,” said Smyth, adding he wish-es an alumni game against the Canucks could be played every couple of years rather than every 20 years.

Terrace spectators had a chance to see legend Cliff Ronning in action. He was only 5”8 and played a speed game, and was a key player in the run to the Stanley Cup finals in 1994.

The King of Mountain volunteers, 15 in total, were apparently a bit on the cold side.

“All the volunteers were suffering,” said Ewald.And while the runners kept warm from the rush

of competition, they didn’t keep clean. “I don’t think anyone bailed, but everyone had

muddy legs, search and rescue [volunteers] came out and looked after us.”

Last year there was a bees nest located under-neath one of the bridges the runners had to traverse, which meant many runners were targeted and stung by the irritated colony.

But that’s life for the wilderness runner, and part of the fun lies in the rugged unpredictability of one of Terrace’s most well-known races.

Ewald and her business partner, who together own Transcend Fitness, decided to take over or-ganizing the event after the previously owners left town.

Block was first with a time of 0:52:29, Jackson Net-zel second with 1:08:17 and Jonas Lecuyer third at 1:08:20.

EDUCATION AND AWARENESSThanks to the support and generosity

of our donors, we are able to deliver relevant and important breast health education and awareness initiatives.Because breast cancer is the most

commonly diagnosed cancer among Canadian women, the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation – BC/Yukon Region plans and delivers breast health education programs which focus on on the importance of risk reduction and early detection, plus helping women make informed choices. The commitment of our donors and

supporters has made it possible for us to invest in a range of breast health programs, initiatives and resources. Here are examples of these dollars at work:

Ask an Expert This program offers the community

access to the brightest minds in breast cancer and breast health, providing an opportunity for the public to ask their most pressing questions. A multi-media campaign is used to profile selected experts and to inform the public about how they can ask the experts their questions, via a live web-chat or at a live event.

Breast Health on the GoBreast Health on the Go is a

program designed to provide breast health information, with the intention of educating the public about breast cancer and risk factors for the disease. Two initiatives, Breast Health 101 and Dragon Boat Health Ambassadors, make up the program.

Breast Health 101 SessionsWhy not invite CBCF in for a one-hour Breast Health 101 session, delivered by a member of the Foundation’s staff? It’s free and will be informative and even entertaining. It’s easy to get a group of people together who are interested in learning about breast health, breast cancer and how to reduce one’s risk of developing the disease. For more information, click here or contact: [email protected].

Don’t Forget to Check: www.dontforgettocheck.caThis is an interactive website

designed for young women age 18-25 to engage and educate them about the importance of knowing their breasts and checking them regularly. Young women are even

asked to take a pledge to check their breasts. Additional features of this campaign include a free App for smartphones and a campaign that reaches out to young women at post-secondary school campuses.

Breast Health is in Your HandsInformative bookmarks, note pads,

pens, nail files and other items containing important breast health information and messaging are available upon request. These items can be provided for your next health fair, fundraising event, girls’ night out or other event by contacting [email protected].

Breast Cancer Myth 1Finding a lump in your breast means you have breast cancer.THE TRUTHOnly a small percentage of breast

lumps turn out to be cancer. But if

you discover a persistent lump in your breast or notice any changes in breast tissue, it should never be ignored. It is very important that you see a physician for a clinical breast exam. He or she may possibly order breast imaging studies to determine if this lump is of concern or not. Take charge of your health by

performing routine breast self-exams, establishing ongoing communication with your doctor, getting an annual clinical breast exam, and scheduling your routine screening mammograms.

Breast Cancer Myth 2Men do not get breast cancer; it affects women only.THE TRUTHQuite the contrary, each year it is

estimated that approximately 2,190 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer and 410 will die. While this percentage is still small, men should also check themselves periodically by doing a breast self-exam while in the shower and reporting any changes to their physicians. Breast cancer in men is usually

detected as a hard lump underneath the nipple and areola. Men carry a higher mortality than women do, primarily because awareness among men is less and they are less likely to assume a lump is breast cancer, which can cause a delay in seeking treatment.

Healthy HabitsWhat can I do to reduce my risk

of breast cancer?Although you cannot prevent

cancer, some habits that can help reduce your risk are:

• Maintain a healthy weight• Stay physically active• Eat fruits and vegetables• Do not smoke• Limit alcohol consumption

CITY COUNCIL has been asked to help pay the estimated $100,000 cost to buy a new sound system for the Terrace Sportsplex’s larger are-na.

In making the ap-peal, Terrace River Kings sponsor Ross Smith told council Sept. 15 people “never hear and understand what the announcers are saying” at sporting and other events.

As a growing city, Terrace should have an arena sound system it can be proud of, added Smith.

He said he also has the support of figure skaters and women’s hockey teams.

Councillor Sean Bu-jtas backed the idea, saying it made sense to completely replace the current system because improving just parts might not work.

“You look at the price and you say woooh,” said Bujtas.

“If you go replace the amplifier then you go blow out the speak-ers, and if you replace the speaker and keep the amplifier, you have the same sound all over again.”

“That’s why it’s such a big bill... it can’t be done piecemeal,” the councillor continued.

But Mayor Carol

Leclerc said the price was high and that the city is holding the line on all spending.

Council did resolve, however, through a vote, to give a look at contributing to the proj-ect when community grants are handed out in next year’s budget.

Council is soon to start deliberating on various spending op-tions leading to its 2016 budget.

COUNCILLORS LISTENED to but didn’t support a pitch made at its Sept. 15 meeting to lower the voting age to 14.

Merv Ritchie from the Land Air Water party told council the younger voters are, the more they will be involved in public affairs.

He cited the German example where the voting age in some areas for local elections is 16.

“We would like to see more people voting and participating in politics, and many of us know, from learning new languages, the best way to learn a new language is

when you are young,” said Ritchie.“By participating young, you

can grasp and be completely flu-ent,” he said. “If we allow and en-courage our children to participate in politics at a younger age, they will become much more proficient in understanding politics.

“A child at age 13 or 14 can choose which parent he or she chooses to live with,” he said.

Children in their early teens also babysit each other and these two facts, Ritchie continued, show that youth are mature enough to also vote.

School district linksprograms in one spotBy JACKIE LIEUWEN

THE COAST Mountains School District is link-ing distance education with a new trades training centre, both housed in the former Thornhill Junior Secondary School building.

“It’s a perfect partnership between the distance education and the trades,” says Geoff McKay, who is both principal of the school-district-run North Coast Distance Education School and the techni-cal skills administrator for the district’s new trades training centre.

“We may have adult students or even school-aged students who are taking [a trades program] who are missing one or two courses to graduate. We can provide that onsite, which is why it’s so powerful,” he said.

The trades training centre set up shop in the for-mer junior secondary school earlier this year fol-lowed by the distance education school which had been housed for years in the century-old school building beside the school district’s main of� ce on Kenney St.

The distance education school traditionally en-rols 1,000 to 1,200 students from across B.C.

With distance learning based online, students can graduate without ever stepping into a school, but McKay says he is excited for the new space and having a classroom available for students if needed.

“Sometimes a person gets stuck for whatever reason, or just needs a little motivation or a little clari� cation. It’s nice to be able to come and see a teacher and get that. So we are set up for that now in the new school,” he said.

The district’s new trades training centre is offer-ing two ACE-IT programs that started early-Sep-tember – welding and hair dressing in conjunction with Northwest Community College. The welding program is 28 weeks and runs at the college.

The hairdresssing program is at the new trades centre and provides students with certi� cation through the Industry Training Authority. “It’s our only program that after 10 months, the individuals who graduate are ready to practice,” said McKay.

McKay says the classroom has an area for desks, which is openly connected to the work stations and shampoo chairs, with special lighting so hair colour looks the same in the facility as outside.

There is also the capability to stage video con-ferencing sessions in the future. The trades centre and distance education occupy over half of the space in the school building.

The school district will continue renting the gym to local groups and is leasing space to the UA Piping Industry College of BC which runs its own trade programs.

Over the next three years, the school district will continue to � ll up the building.

“We recognize the contributions made by CGL, PRGT and Trans-Canada towards education through Northwest Community College and other training facilities in Terrace and look forward to seeing the graduates from these programs take advantage of the employment opportunities that the CGL Pipeline and PRGT proj-ects will have available for them,” the letter states. “We are excited for this project to come to fruition and to see the bene� ts that will come to

Northwest B.C. through the respon-sible development, construction and mobilization of the Coastal GasLink Pipeline and the Prince Rupert Gas Transmission Projects.”

“It’s well worth it,” said TransCan-ada of� cial Dave Kmet who returned to council Sept. 28 after being present Sept. 14 when the � rst attempt at a support letter was turned down.

“We will get that over to our cli-ents to include in their package to go overseas.”
