Mayor has ‘super’ city visionBy JOSH MASSEY

OUTGOING TERRACE mayor Dave Pernarowski is calling on the future city council to work toward the creation of what he calls a “super-municipality” in which Thornhill and Ter-race would be harmoniously joined.

Speaking at his last State of the City address to the Terrace & District Chamber

of Commerce luncheon held Oct. 23, Pernarowski said that while the amalgamation of Thornhill and Terrace has been rejected by way of a referendum in years past, times have changed.

“A couple of years ago the idea of amalgamation or boundary extension wasn’t really the right timing,” Per-narowski said to the busi-ness crowd gathered to see his farewell, one in which

the mayor of six years shed a few tears as he recounted his time in office.

“Now might be the right timing. I think we should do a study of it. A really thor-ough study,” he said.

Meanwhile, Kitimat-Sti-kine regional district Thorn-hill director Ted Ramsey is promoting a different path for the community and that is to incorporate and sepa-rate from the regional dis-

trict to have its own mayor, council and administration.

Ramsey was unopposed in the nomination period leading up to next month’s local government elections and has been returned to his position by acclamation.

Pernarowski said a pro-vincial government-aided study might prove incorpo-ration to be the right choice but he sounds willing to hedge his bets against that

conclusion. “I mean maybe we’ll see that taking Thorn-hill and making it a sepa-rate little community makes sense,” he said.

The question of amal-gamation has twice gone to referendum.

A 1997 referendum saw Terrace voters voting in fa-vour with Thornhill voters rejecting the idea.

GARBAGE COLLECTION and recycling in the regional district is set to start next month after the bylaw for it passed with all but one vote at the Kitimat-Stikine regional district board meeting Oct. 24.

It marks the end of sustained protests not only about the bylaw itself, which sets out how garbage is to be collected and in what size containers and imposes an annual fee of $200, but complaints that the regional district does too much business behind closed doors.

The bylaw and its development also sparked the resignation of one regional district director, Doug McLeod. Residents continued to question the bylaw Oct. 24 leading right up to the vote.

Three residents took their turns telling the regional district what they didn’t like about the proposed garbage collection plan bylaw.

Richard Tiernan told the board it should respect the 700-signature petition signed by residents who wanted a chance to vote on the bylaw, saying it’s imperative that the board re-alize that people aren’t against recycling but rather it’s what they see as the board’s way of pushing it on them that they don’t like.

“It’s the ‘jam it down the throat’ attitude here,” he said about what people see the board doing. Only the people affected should be vot-ing for it and not residents in other areas of the regional district who won’t be affected by the bylaw, he added.

A LARGE crane used to lower two modu-lar building units onto waiting foundations at Veritas School Oct. 24 marked the beginning of the end of a project to establish a home for the Catholic school’s trades training program.

“With the addition of Grade 8 and, this year, Grade 9, the need to have a standalone module was absolutely necessary,” says school woodworking instructor Allan McIntyre of the project.

The two single wide modules will, when joined and in service, make for a 54 X 28 foot structure containing a 35 X 28 shop and a 15 X 28 classroom, he said.

McIntyre estimat-ed the project cost at $250,000.

“And that’s at a turn key operation, includ-ing equipment in the shop and computers in the classroom,” he said.

The two units are now taking up the loca-tion of what was an out-door basketball court

just to the south of the school’s gym.

Although intended primarily for Veritas school students, Mc-Intyre said Veritas is speaking with various groups about renting out the space when not needed by the school.

CITY COUNCIL has been criticized by a former council candidate for the sale of approximately half of its Skeena Industrial Development Park to Chinese industrial interests.

Chris Gee, an unsuccessful candi-date in the 2011 municipal elections, said China has a poor human rights record and questionable environmental standards.

“I am here to remind you that this deal is your legacy. Your names will be forever associated with the out-come of this endeavour,” Gee told council when it met Oct. 14.

Gee said he has an intimate knowl-edge of Chinese ideology from his fa-ther who lived in China for a number of years and from his stepmother who is from Shanghai.

The city’s sale of more than 1,000 acres of the industrial park to the agen-cy which operates a special economic development zone in and around the Chinese city of Qinhuangdao earlier this year was hailed by council as a way to increase the city’s industrial tax base and provide stable employ-ment. Gee argued that democracy-promoting novelists have been jailed in China and quoted major Canadian political and policy figures who argue that close ties with foreign countries are not in Canada’s best interests.

Gee even quoted Mao Zedong, the principal founder of the Chinese Communist Party, which runs the country: “If the US monopoly capital-ist groups persist in pushing their pol-icies of aggression and war the day is bound to come when the people of

the whole world will hang them. The same fate awaits the accomplices of the United States.”

Gee said he was confident the city had spoken with experts in pursuing its business deal.

“I am confident you sought the council of the best trade lawyers in Canada. I am confident you asked for the opinions of experts in the field of human rights. I am confident you took council from specialists in the field of air and water pollution. I am confident the opinion of these experts will be reflected in the final contract. I am confident you were dazzled by your hosts when you visited China. I am confident that you undertook these negotiations in a manner akin to a man in a room with an unchained tiger. I am confident that Terrace will be forever changed by this,” he said.

Councillor Brian Downie, who was filling in for Dave Pernarowski as mayor that evening, and councillor James Cordeiro spoke against Gee’s opinion, though Cordeiro said he re-spected Gee’s reasoning and Downie said his points were “noted”.

The sale of the industrial park land has yet to officially close but one of the projects being first talked about is a plant to extract protein from alfal-fa and ship the commodity to China where it is in short supply.

The city is to receive $11.8 million for the industrial park land.

Gee had also been asked to be placed on the agenda so he could talk about the closure of his non-profit Skeena Bicycle Service. The service offered instruction in bicycle repairs and maintenance.

Growing upMoves underway to give Thornhill municipal status

MARGARET SPEIRS PHOTO

THORNHILL JUNIOR Secondary School, closed by the school district because of a declining student pop-ulation, is being touted as the administrative home for Thornhill should a bid for municipal status be suc-cessful.

WHILE THORNHILL resi-dents could very well go to the polls in the next several years to decide if they wish to incorporate, they were by no means thrilled when asked about the idea of amalgamat-ing with Terrace in a 1997 ref-erendum.

A ‘yes’ vote was needed by both communities for amalgamation to take place but 58 per cent of the 1,301 Thornhill voters who went to the polls in October 1997 re-jected the idea.

By contrast, 87 per cent of the 1,483 Terrace voters who cast ballots favoured the idea.

The prospect of rising taxes, which was acknowl-edged in the run up to the vote that year,, was cited often by Thornhill voters as a reason for saying ‘no’ to joining with Terrace in one large munici-pality. Information prepared at the time of the vote did indicate that while Thornhill residents would experience a modest tax hike phased in over five years, businesses would be affected more in or-der to bring taxes in line with what Terrace businesses were paying.

Ted Ramsey

Just the facts

Back in 1997

By MARGARET SPEIRS

Regional Dis-trict of Kitimat-Stikine Thorn-hill director

Ted Ramsey wants to see Thornhill become incor-porated as a stand alone municipality, saying there are too many people living within its boundaries to be governed effectively by the regional district.

“A regional district is not intended, and has not ever been intended, to run a community the size of Thornhill,” he said last week.

He added that with in-corporation, Thornhill would still be a part of the regional district as Terrace is but wouldn’t be gov-erned by the regional dis-trict anymore.

“Thornhill needs to look after itself,” he said, add-ing that right now it’s being governed by people from Dease Lake and Hazelton “and that’s just wrong.”

Ramsey put a motion on the table at the regional dis-trict board meeting in Sep-tember to start the process of incorporation, which was seconded by Terrace city representative Sta-cey Tyers and voted on and passed by the board.

The regional district has since sent a letter to the Ministry of Sport, Commu-nity and Cultural Develop-ment to ask how to proceed on incorporation.

Based on a favourable response from the province to the idea of incorpora-tion, a consultant would take a look at Thornhill and indicate what all of its op-tions are, said Ramsey.

And any prospect of incorporation would ulti-

mately have to be approved by Thornhill residents in a referendum.

A referendum would be held to ask the people of Thornhill if they wanted to incorporate and provide them with the options, after the people were advised of the pros and cons of it, said Ramsey.

“I think the timing is good, the future is bright and it’s one of the most ex-citing things since Thorn-hill was started,” said Ramsey.

But while Thornhill res-idents would ultimately see the creation of a separate administrative structure,

Ramsey is predicting that its residents will continue to pay for services in Ter-race in the same fashion as they do now.

Thornhill residents, through specific tax assess-ments, pay to help support the Terrace Public Library and the Terrace Sportsplex.

“Why duplicate servic-es?” he said.

Ramsey’s governance vision for Thornhill is to get ownership from the school district of the closed Thornhill Junior Secondary School and use it for a town hall.

He’s also in contact with a wood pellet company he

hopes will settle in Thorn-hill and add to its tax base and provide 300 jobs.

“The community is going to blossom,” said Ramsey.

Whereas Thornhill now has one member on the regional district board, Ramsey suggests that could increase to two, just as is the case with Terrace.

“It would be very little change, except we’d gov-ern ourselves,” he said about Thornhill.

“Thornhill should’ve done this 20 years ago but there was no incentive,” he said, adding that a com-munity base is well estab-

lished. “Old Thornhill as we know it is done,” said Ramsey.

ACCORDING TO Andrew Webber, regional district man-ager planning and economic development, Thornhill, elec-toral area E, has a population of 3,988 plus another 95 resi-dents at Kulspai, which is the Kitselas reserve on Queen-sway Drive., for a total around 4,000 in the last census.

The boundaries are Queen-sway Dr. to the hill by the CN bridge, not quite to the Cop-per River to homes referred to as Copper City (by Azorcan along Hwy 16), and along Old Lakelse Lake Road just up to the Thornhill landfill, he said.

Upon incorporation, clas-sification of whether Thornhill would be considered a village, town or city would be based on population and area.

There are four classifica-tions set out in the Local Gov-ernment Act: a village is less than 2500; a town is bigger than a village but not greater than 5000; a city is bigger than a town (so greater than 5000); a district can have any popu-lation but if the area is greater than 800 hectares and popula-tion density is less than 5 peo-ple per hectare (2.5 acres), it is classified as a district.

WHETHER OR not Thornhill ever does incorporate, it could face large changes regardless because of two competing applications filed to purchase provincial Crown lands.

Those applications are now on hold because the regional district ear-lier this year requested that the prov-ince hold off on awarding tenure until it is able to look at the best use of the land as part of an update to its Official Settlement Plan (OSP).

That updated OSP is still in the planning stages, with regional dis-trict planners preparing the terms of reference with the expectation that those will be worked out by the end of November, said regional

district planner Andrew Webber Oct. 23. Once the terms of refer-ence are worked out, finding the money to pay for the project is the next step.

Community consultations will also be part of updating the com-munity plan, and while the issue of Thornhill self-government or amalgamation will likely arise dur-ing those discussions, the OSP is a land-use plan and not a governance plan, so it's not explicitly there to address Thornhill's potential future government structure.

The two crown land applica-tions are from M&M Ventures and Bear Creek Contracting.

M&M Ventures in looking to

develop 124 single family residen-tial lots on 40 hectares, and would be phased in at approximately 30 lots a year leading towards 2020.

Bear Creek Contracting's pro-posal, for the same area, details a mix of residential, commercial and community spaces.

A map included in the applica-tion shows Bear Creek’s vision for the crown land, which is north of Century St., to Crescent St., and between Paquette Avenue, and Sharples Road in Thornhill. One parcel to the east is designated commercial, with parcels further north and to the west of Sharples proposed as multi-residential.

Along Century St., two parcels

of land – totalling nearly 20 hect-ares – are marked as community and institutional development and are not part of the crown land ap-plication. The application states that the community and institu-tional parcels "should be reserved by the regional district for the de-velopment of the future Thornhill community in accordance with the provisions of the Thornhill Official Settlement Plan (OSP)."

When the applications were first filed, a number of residents in the surrounding area signed petitions opposing the development, citing concerns over losing the natural wooded areas and too drastically changing the landscape of the area.

Crown land applications still on hold

ESTABLISHED APRIL 27, 1988

FORMER Terrace resident Max Durando, now living in Victoria, struck a rich vein of comment sev-eral months ago when he suggested Terrace needed a slogan.

Gord Shaben favoured “Terrace – Naturally Dynamic” while Jacques Charbonneau liked “Pearl of the Northwest” and JR Walker looked to a colour palette with “Green Rivers, Red Fish and White Bears.”

Mr. Durando chose “Vibrant by Nature” while Brandon Greenall, in re� ecting the current economy, sug-gested “Terrace, a great place to live, but the rent will kill you.”

These and other suggestions speak highly of how Terrace is regarded by its citizens and why.

But a slogan should also say some-thing to someone from the outside.

Terrace, because of its geographic location, is the hub of the northwest.

Its airport has the most (and grow-ing) passenger traf� c. Mills Memo-rial Hospital is by all accounts the area’s regional medical centre and the city contains the largest number of specialists. Northwest Commu-nity College’s main campus is here and the city is the base for senior governments.

Each day employees of numerous companies offering goods and ser-vices to the region fan out to other locations.

All of that and more make up the who, what, where and why of the city.

And that leads to the obvious: Ter-race – Capital of Northwestern B.C.

EDITORIALA6 www.terracestandard.com OPINION Wednesday, October 29, 2014 Terrace Standard

People my age don’t collect a salary, but we do have jobs – to stay healthy,

and keep ourselves safe. In-variably when I talk with a friend, conversation touch-es on those mental lapses known as senior moments when we slip up without re-alizing it.

Most of our lapses are merely annoying. Frustrat-ing. Such as the forgetfulness that sends us to a store for a duplicate item because we can’t remember where we left something last time we held it. Like my two pairs of cutting pliers.

One friend competent in carpentry who has made her-self more than one bookshelf tallies her projects by the number of hammers lined up on her tool bench.

Somewhere in my house I have two 28-inch zippers for replacing a gap-toothed zip-per in my winter jacket.

Instead of sewing in the � rst zipper last spring, I put off the task knowing warm weather would soon have me wearing a lighter jacket.

By the time fall weather made replacing the zipper urgent I couldn’t � nd the zipper. I got a second one.

I’ve misplaced it, too. But if I ever � nd one, I’m sure I’ll � nd both.

Those misplacements, though, are of no great con-sequence. The error I � nally recognized this morning is much more serious.

For years I’ve been on a daily dose of Warfarin, a drug that thins the blood to prevent blood clots. My nor-mal daily dosage is 10 to 11 mg.

The dose varies depend-ing upon the results of a fre-quent blood test called INR which measures clotting time. Thinning the blood too much can cause hemorrhag-ing; too little can produce

a clot which could block a blood vessel to the heart causing a heart attack, or to the brain causing a stroke.

I have prescriptions for 1 mg. peach-coloured tablets and for 5 mg. rose tablets.

For weeks my INR kept dropping much to my doc-tor’s consternation. Yester-day he asked me to come in and see him.

I worried all night. Am I suffering liver disease? Is that why my INR is drop-ping?

This morning as I count-ed out my dose something prompted me to check the size of the tablets in the 5 mg. bottle. I had never no-ticed before it held two co-lours. Mixed in with the rose were a few peach tablets.

Guess when I received the last prescription re� lls, I combined leftover 1’s with 5’s, or vice versa. How long might I have been taking too-small doses? Little wonder my INR continued dropping.

Recognizing seniors’ penchant for memory lapses, a company that makes high-tech running shoes for ath-letes produces a shoe adapt-able to tracking wandering dementia patients. (Studies show up to 70 percent of

Alzheimer’s patients tend to wander away and become lost at least once.)

Made by GTX and called the SmartSole, the shoe’s sole incorporates a GPS device which produces a ‘Google map’ showing the wanderer’s route and loca-tion.

If the patient steps be-yond the allotted range, for instance outside a home’s fenced yard, the GPS signals a monitor. The map leads searchers right to the wan-derer.

My family often urges me to carry a cell phone when I walk my dogs on trails through the bush.

I have been known to trip over a root, or slide down on a muddy hill where nothing was available to grab on to, except my dog’s fur.

A cell phone would let me call for help. But how would anyone � nd me out there? If I were wearing SmartSole shoes, I would be easy to track ... if anyone had reason to search for me.

Pairing a cell phone with Smart Sole shoes might work best.

Claudette Sandecki puts her best foot forward in Thornhill, B.C.

Here’s your chance to have a say

Terrace Standard Wednesday, October 29, 2014 VIEWPOINTS www.terracestandard.com A7

A serious question for those candidates wish-ing to serve the com-munity is, “What is

your vision for the next 20 or 30 years for Terrace and its sur-roundings?”

It’s a question that was put to me by two college-age women who rang the doorbell one eve-ning not long ago. The two were doing a survey for the Skeena Watershed Conservation Coali-tion and wanted to know what I thought about Terrace’s future, and where I thought our commu-nity should direct its energies.

It might be imagined that, as per our provincial government’s enthusiastic embrasure of the possibilities for liquefied natural gas, many would envision mas-sive industrial intervention and development, expanded housing for workers migrating here from elsewhere in Canada and around the world, and the concomitant opportunities for local businesses and growing social services.

Certainly improved opportu-nities (economic and otherwise)

sound good to most of us. Natu-rally the next question must be, “At what cost?” In an economic model that consistently reminds us that there is no free lunch, we would be well advised to address what the costs to such develop-ments might be, and who will pay them, and who will get the benefits, and in what proportions.

(One is reminded of Leonard Cohen’s stark lyrics to Democra-cy, a song on his 1995 album The Future: “…the homicidal bitchin’ that goes down in every kitchen, to determine who will serve and who will eat.”)

This is especially important when we consider that fossil fuel production and use have long re-lied upon free dumping of waste into the atmosphere for centuries, a practice that must end if we are going to survive on this planet.

Further costs include the in-dustrial despoliation of wilder-ness, the potential wreckage of watersheds and destruction of (until now) almost infinitely re-newable populations of food fish, and so on.

All those costs accumulate, and will be collected sooner or later, in one way or another.

However, there are other vi-sions of a future for the region that should be at least part of the general equation.

The survey included questions about family priorities within the larger community, voice (are you heard?...hmm…), tipping points in industrial development, lo-

cal food, outstanding questions about land and First Nations ne-gotiations, and the future.

I tried to emphasize the fol-lowing. We need to complete treaties that equitably address all First Nations land claims. Any industrial development projected on such areas can progress only by way of legal treaties.

We need more equitable ar-rangements of power and benefits from economic activity in the re-gion. Getting hardballed by cor-porations largely owned by glob-al interests (including foreign governments), or by governments owned by corporate lobbyists is not in our best interests.

We need to continue to in-crease the progress we have been making on local food production and distribution, including stock-ing the food bank(s). We need to hasten our energy independence from fossil fuels, a process that will be a difficult transition.

We need to address our grow-ing greying demography (in-creasing numbers of aging, re-tired people) by improving public

health, public transportation in-frastructure, home care, etc.

We need to maintain and im-prove our public education in-frastructure (physical plant and human participants’ skills, quali-fications and motivations).

Naturally, these priorities all have cost implications, as well. Further, none of these goals will be met in a society without en-ergy, or lumber, or metal. There will have to be some carefully thought out compromises.

However, if Skeena develop-ment priorities remain exclusive-ly aligned with corporate Cana-da’s general ethos of “cut it, catch it, or dig it out of the ground and sell it so consumers can buy more plastic junk from China,” some of us may profit in the short run, but most will find ourselves generally impoverished.

What would you like to see in Skeena’s future? Google Skeena 2050, find the questions, and try to answer them for yourselves. We’re all in this together.

Coast protection motivates MPDear Sir:

I was interested to read in the October 1st edition of The Terrace Standard a response from guest columnist Malcolm Baxter to my bill to stop En-bridge Northern Gateway.

While Mr. Baxter makes a number of interesting points for debate, it’s the underlying

assumption and conclusion of his column – that this effort has been undertaken “mostly [for] political posturing” – which I find disappointing and inaccurate. I am grateful for the opportunity to respond.

My bill, An Act to Defend the Pacific Northwest (C-628), proposes three things: it would

stop the Enbridge Northern Gateway project by enacting an oil tanker ban on the North Coast; it would force pipeline proponents to look at adding value to resources and creating jobs in Canada; and it would strengthen consultations be-tween the federal government and communities and First Na-

tions at pipeline reviews.Mr. Baxter is concerned

about the technical language used in the bill. The wording of the bill is the most direct way to ensure that our coast contin-ues to remain tanker-free and I use the terms supertanker and bulk oil tankers frequently.

Dear Sir:Judging by the disproportionate number of vio-

lent incidents by RCMP officers in your community I suggest that you purchase a copy of the Criminal Code of Canada and send it to the officer in charge of the Terrace RCMP detachment.

Based on the number of incidents involving Terrace RCMP officers using excessive force, it certainly appears the officers at the Terrace detach-ment are ignorant of Section 26 of the Code which clearly places limits on when police can and cannot use force.

As the Shane Parker case demonstrated, the code of conduct investigations by the RCMP are a complete joke.

The RCMP are not exempt from the Criminal Code of Canada and someone should explain that to the Officer in charge of the Terrace RCMP de-tachment.

Demand assault charges be laid against the of-ficers involved in these incidents and let the courts decide whether their behaviour is or is not a crimi-nal offence.

Dear Sir:Full disclosure: I am a self-employed consultant.

My livelihood depends entirely upon extractive in-dustry; gas, oil and rock. I have greatest respect for these enterprises and the people who make a living from them.

That doesn’t mean I don’t think what I do has impacts; I know what I do has impacts. I may spend my days in clean offices in front of computers, or talking with people about issues. Trying to just make things safer is what I do.

Let’s also be clear: there is no contradiction be-tween encouraging more upgrading and refining in Canada, and enacting an oil tanker ban on the North Coast. Canada imports half of its energy from plac-es like Algeria and Saudi Arabia.

The threat posed by Enbridge’s pipeline and su-pertankers is a clear and present danger to our econ-omy, environment and way of life. Sending 220 su-pertankers laden with diluted bitumen through the Douglas Channel every year – or 11,000 over the full 50-year life cycle of the project – when govern-ment and industry admit that cleaning up a diluted bitumen spill is virtually impossible. Ask the good folks of Kalamazoo, Michigan what their experi-ence has been like.

Communities and First Nations across the Northwest and British Columbia have widely con-demned the proposal – but have been ignored by the federal government. And the Alberta Federation of Labour estimates that up to 25,000 jobs could be created Canada if the amount Enbridge intends to export raw was upgraded and refined in Canada.

My bill seeks to put respect and shared benefit back into the national conversation on energy. That

is why I was proud that Coastal First Nations (who represent First Nations across B.C.’s north and cen-tral coasts and Haida Gwaii) and Canada’s largest private sector union, UNIFOR, were the first two organizations to lend my bill their support. Town councils, environment groups and ordinary citizens from across the north and around B.C. are coming on-board as well.

The Act to Defend the Pacific Northwest is a sincere effort at protecting what we as British Co-lumbians and Canadians value most, while correct-ing some of the worst mistakes of the Harper Con-servatives. I will reach out to B.C. MPs from all parties and have received good support so far. Far from “political posturing”, this is an important mo-ment in a conversation that has been taking place in our region for a decade – and one that is bringing people together across the most unlikely lines.

By the way, I take no offence at being called the MLA, but happily Robin Austin holds that position for us in Victoria.

But I am keenly aware that if it weren’t for the fracking crews, or the drillers, or the miners just a few degrees of separation from my job, I wouldn’t have a job at all that I am actually qualified for.

I’ve spent near enough to half my life as a resi-dent of Terrace. I must like it. When I first arrived the town was lively and booming. I stayed through the last down turn, and found a way to keep liv-ing here. And now the town is lively and booming again. That return to prosperity has unfortunately been accompanied by some vicious economic in-justice to those who can’t afford say, $2500 after tax dollars or more to rent a living space for a month.

But that is what Capitalism does. It is not about you, or us, it is about itself, and whether or not it is good for you doesn’t matter. Neither does the scale of the impacts.

We owe a nod of thanks to Feng Zhiqiang, ex-ecutive vice-president of Sinopec International Petroleum Exploration and Production Co. and Shamsul Azhar Abbas, the chief executive officer of Petronas, for stripping away the nonsense and making it plain to us, that what is happening here in northwest B.C. is not about us, nor is it for us. In fact it has got nothing to do with us. It would be happening anyway even if we weren’t here, and in fact they would probably prefer it if we weren’t.

Mr. Feng has made it crystal clear, that Canada

(we) lacks the capacity to do what he wants done. He has stated flat out that Canada (we) needs to drop restrictions on foreign workers and let China do this.

We should get all those lazy inefficient Canadi-ans out of the way (and presumably take all their labour, safety and environmental standards with them) and let China do the projects. Mr. Feng has told us in plain English that you don’t send a boy (Canada) to do a man’s (China’s) work.

Mr. Shamsul has made it clear that the LNG pro-cessors are here to do Canada a favour by getting rid of that gas for us. And he finds it petulant that we would want a slice of his pie. Taxes and royal-ties had better be token. In fact, it is up to us to pull our forelocks and properly incentivize Petronas to come to B.C.; not expect to be able to pay off our debts as a result of his efforts. (So much for debt free B.C.) He has also been very clear that our envi-ronmental processes need to be thrown out as well. They have already done the drawings for the proj-ect on Lelu island, screw the fish.

This boom is not about you or me, or B.C. or Canada, and it is certainly not about the Skeena, or the salmon. I understand that what I do has impacts. But I don’t have to like it.

BREWMASTER DARRYL Tucker looks at plans while holding a sample as more equipment shows up at Sherwood Mountain Brewery.

By ANNA KILLEN

TERRACE’S FIRST brewery is on course to open on schedule, thanks to the on-time arrival of some heavy equipment earlier this month.

A 53-foot � atbed truck arrived from Cali-fornia Oct. 9, on it the brewery’s three shiny new fermentors and one bright tank – the tank where the beer settles and matures – equip-ment that now � lls the 2,600 square foot space.

“It’s exciting,” said Sherwood Mountain Brewery owner Dar-ryl Tucker Oct. 9 at the brewery-in-progress lo-cation in the former Out Spoke’n Bike & Sport location on Hwy16 West.

He and business partner Linda Parker have been busy trans-forming the space over the summer, and with the fermentors arriving on schedule, the team now moves to the next

phase on the way to be-ing a full-� edged brew-ery with tasting room, beer to go, and local restaurants carrying their draft on tap.

Sherwood Mountain will be Terrace’s � rst brewery, and Tucker,

anticipating demand, has opted to “go big” –producing 80,000 litres of beer in the � rst year of operation with plans to expand to 200,000 li-tres a year.

Eventually, he’d like to see the beer sold in

places beyond north-west B.C.

The business timeline calls for Sherwood to be in operation enough so that patrons will be able to take home beer for Christmas – something Tucker says is still very much the case.

Local companyon top 100 listLOCAL COMPANY Coast Mountain Wire-less has been named one of the top 100 com-panies in the province measured by percentage growth in revenue over the past � ve years.

The ranking, com-piled by business mag-azine Business in Van-couver, places the local communications com-pany at 54th out of 100 companies with a per-centage revenue growth of 112.5 per cent – $1.6 million in revenues to $3.4 million – from 2009 to 2013.

Coast Mountain is also only one of three companies of the 100 on the list to be located outside of the Lower Mainland.

The � rst four com-panies on the list are mining companies with Boston Pizza and Lu-lulemon Athletica also making an appearance.

Coast Mountain’s Rob Dykman said he was surprised and pleased to � rst receive a phone call and then

a letter regarding the company’s placement.

“We’ve had some pe-riods of ups and downs but I can tell you our growth has really come in the past two years,” he said last week.

Coast Mountain Wireless specializes in installing and maintain-ing communications networks in remote lo-cations, often installing equipment on moun-taintops.

Dykman said the company’s growth is being felt in its employ-ee complement which has increased recently from 12 to 16 with pro-jections of reaching 20 very soon.

Dykman and another Coast Mountain em-

ployee � ew to Vancou-ver several weeks ago to attend a conference as part of the Top 100 magazine list.

He also took part in a panel discussion with two other business rep-resentatives, one from a large alternate energy company. “It felt a little intimidating a � rst,” said Dykman.

But he noted the op-portunity gave him a chance to speak about Terrace and the north coast and the economic opportunities now in place here.

Dykman is the chair of the Terrace Econom-ic Development Au-thority, the local agency charged with promoting Terrace and area.

THIS FRIDAY at 4 p.m. is the deadline for vot-ing in this year’s Terrace and District Chamber of Commerce Business Excellence Awards.

THE HENRY family shows off its Halloween costumes, sewn by mom Joy, that won the best-dressed family prize for the third year in a row last year at Heritage Park Museum.

HERITAGE PARK Museum hosts its 13th annual Halloween Howl with 13 prizes for best costumes.

For the past three years, the Henry family has won the prize for best-dressed family with its homemade costumes.

Last year, mom Joy, who makes the family’s costumes ev-ery year, said she only had two days to sew all the family’s Wizard of Oz costumes.

If you’re brave enough, compete with them for the best-dressed family or vie for one of the 12 other prizes to be hand-ed out by the volunteers at each cabin. Prize categories in-clude: spookiest costume (two prizes), best duo, best trio, most creative costume (two prizes), cutest costume, best-dressed family, funniest costume, strangest costume, best homemade costume, best-dressed baby, and most historical costume.

Children are invited to trick-or-treat amongst the spookily decorated historic log cabins at the museum. Several groups and volunteers from across the community took part in deco-rating the log cabins.

There will be thousands of candies to be given out, as well as hot drinks and a photo booth.

Security will be provided for the event, so you can rest as-sured that this will be a safe, family-friendly event.

Everyone is welcome, and admission is free or by donation. The 13th annual Halloween Howl scares from 5 to 7 p.m. this Friday, Oct. 31 at Heritage Park Museum.

TERRACE’S KNOX United Church has a new reverend.

Teri Meyer, who officially started here Oct. 1, came from Kamloops where she was in the ministry there for four years at Kamloops United Church. Before that, she spent six years in Quesnel and before that was living in the Lower Mainland working and getting her psychology/anthropology and then masters in di-vinity degrees.

She got involved in the United Church at age 16 through a friend and after taking a five-month course on family dynamics and communi-cation at Naramata Centre, just north of Penticton, decided she wanted to serve in some way.

A facilitator suggested she might want to try it out by volunteering first and, after a 12-month program Youth in Training as an intern in Penticton, thought she could do it.

So she moved down south for her education.

She applied for the position here after buying a house in Quesnel and needing a full-time job – her position in Kamloops was part-time – to pay the mortgage.

Meyer grew up on Vancouver Is-land and when she moved to the big city, she loved having so much to do but it wasn’t for her to live there permanently. She was in Quesnel for two months when she returned to the Lower Mainland and when she was coming back to Quesnel and driv-ing down the big hill into town she

thought “Thank God I’m home” – re-alizing she already considered Ques-nel home.

“Coming to Terrace, I feel like I’m on the right side of the mountain range even though it is the left side,” she said.

Being an avid canoeist, hiker and snowshoer, she loves that Terrace has four separate seasons.

One area of new work for her is in the congregation’s wish to reach out to build relationships with First Na-tions. “It’s kind of exciting,” she said.

Meyer has an affinity for First Nations’ culture and spirituality and grew up with two adopted twin cous-ins who were First Nation.

One passed away and the other re-turned to his nation once he was old enough to leave home, and she’d love to reconnect with him although she isn’t sure where he is.

Growing up on Vancouver Island in a logging camp and Port Alberni, which was a racially divided commu-nity, she saw the unjust treatment and lack of acceptance with the First Na-tions and felt an affinity with them.

As part of her psychology and anthropology degree, she did every-thing she could to learn about heal-ing, reconciliation, the culture and spirituality of the west coast First Nations with the intent of going to the Vancouver School of Theology and eventually going into First Na-tions ministry but at that time was told because she wasn’t from a First Nation village and wasn’t First Na-tions, that she couldn’t.

She became involved with the

Secwepemc nation and was invited to healing ceremonies and built a relationship with the people, who

she misses. “I’m looking forward to building a healing relationship with folks here,” she said.


TERI MEYER and Karma are making themselves at home at Knox United since Meyer started as the new reverend there Oct. 1.

Election ■ THE MUNICIPAL ALL-CAN-

DIDATES Forum gives the public the chance to hear from, and ask questions of, the candidates Nov. 5 at the REM Lee Theatre.

I’m sitting on a small brown deck in rural Sooke on Vancouver Island, surrounded by a large assortment of ceramic planters and pots grow-

ing various herbs, annuals, and tomato plants—all slightly past their prime, yel-lowed and bedraggled from last night’s heavy rain, but still beautiful in the warm midmorning sun.

The deck itself is nestled into a stony knoll, and if I reached through the rail-ing, I could touch rough-barked tree stumps, saturated, carpet-thick moss, massive ancient rocks, and wild flowers.

Beyond my immediate reach, scat-tered trees grow old man’s beard and bear little bird and squirrel houses here and there—and further still, a wall of pines, staggered by age and leaning from years of wind, shelter the house, no less protective for all their wear and tear.

The air is sweet and fresh, but try as I might I can’t catch a whiff of salt, de-spite how close I am to the ocean.

The setting and peaceful calm is lovely after a busy few days in Surrey. Yet, perhaps weirdly, I enjoyed the traf-fic, the noise, the ongoing stretch of con-crete and buildings, and crush of people and activity there just as much as I enjoy the solitude here.

Something about the cacophony of sound—sirens, motors, brakes, piped music from restaurants—and the bus-tling throngs of people, ever moving, ever flowing with and against and in spite of the traffic thrills me, kindles ideas, appeals to my curiosity. . . . All that might grow tiresome after a while, but I don’t know. . . . Sometimes I long

to live in, or near, a bigger city—and though I’ve heard a few people com-plain about Terrace’s recent growth and new busyness, I find myself hoping it continues.

I love the huge mix of culture, per-sonality and purpose that come together and collide in cities. I adore the vast array of amazing restaurants, eclectic shops, galleries, and events to take in—and I revel in the fun of having things to do at night after 10 p.m. (The night owl side of my personality is wasted in a small town!)

Oh, wait—my thoughts are being in-

truded upon by a different type of activ-ity. Three Stellar jays have discovered a bird feeder about 10 feet away from where I’m perched. And you think city drivers are impatient. They have noth-ing on these frenzied blue-bodied, black hooded birds.

I relate all too well to the jays’ greedy delight for more, more, more, as I try to make sense of the longings I have when I travel. I always want to stay longer, see more, go further away—or maybe live somewhere else permanently—when another part of me can’t imagine living anywhere other than Terrace. Its geog-raphy, weather, and people are such an intrinsic, shaping part of who I am and how I think and see the world that I wonder whether I even could success-fully move away. Maybe I’d be like one of those trees you see pulled into the Skeena, adrift and floating, roots ex-posed, broken off from the shore that previously anchored them. Then anoth-er part of me says, No . . . you’re more parasite than tree, Ev. You’d adapt and happily make any new host your comfy home. (The tree imagery is definitely prettier though!)

Ah, well, either way, whether I’m in Terrace till the end of my days (some-thing I often hope for and sort of ro-manticize), or whether I do end up else-where for a while or forever, I’m happy. A break is as good as a change—and I know that after another week or so of city dwelling, I’ll be thrilled to be home and will think there’s no better place for me—or at least until the next time I take flight, anyway.

Manufacturing wantedDON DUNSTER is an-gling for a spot on city council from a perspec-tive that is unique.

A part-time accoun-tant who has overcome severe alcoholism and the removal of large parts of his intestine from an undiagnosed disease, the 74-year-old Terrace resident of 41 years lives and works out of a secondhand camper van after expe-riencing first hand the Terrace housing crunch.

He ran for mayor in 2011, but had to quit mid-campaign because of his health problems.

He is currently a member at large of the Terrace and District Community Services Society and used to sit on the hospital board in the years before a northern regional health authority was created.

Now on the upward slope of his convales-cence, Dunster is back on the campaign trail

extolling many of the same policy ideas that informed his platform three years ago, cen-tral to which being his strong desire to bring more jobs to the city.

“We have to do something to retain our graduating students. I have three daughters and not one of them lives in Terrace,” said Dunster.

The former accoun-tant for forestry com-

panies, Dunster points to the $100,000 in grant revenue generated by the city-owned Terrace Community Forest as proof that the forestry industry has potential.

He also said that with robust cedar growing in the area there would be a great opportunity to build outdoor furniture.

This would require encouraging CN Rail to create a cargo bay where products could be put directly onto trains, he said.

For this reason he fa-vours the development of the western part of Keith Ave. into a load-ing zone for manufac-tured products.

“You cannot load and unload freight cars in Terrace,” said Dun-ster. “How do you send manufactured goods out? You truck them to Prince Rupert or you truck them to Prince George. Then you have to handle them again

onto the rail car. How can you compete?”

Dunster said that in-stead of people leaving the north to go south that the south should come north.

“We should be pres-suring the B.C. govern-ment to move some of their offices out of Van-couver and Victoria into smaller communities like Terrace,” he said.

“We don’t need tow-ers twenty-one stories high in Vancouver full of government employ-ees when we could have ten floors in Smithers and ten floors in Ter-race.”

He is skeptical that the hype around indus-trial development in the northwest may prove to be just that. “There isn’t going to be a ma-jor project happen in the next 15 years,” he said.

“I’m not sure that plant’s going ahead,” he added, in reference to the deal for an alfalfa

protein processing plant inked by the city with Chinese industrial in-terests earlier this year and ear-marked for the city’s industrial park.

Dunster was nomi-nated by Romea Mor-ton and Tom Morton.

Don Dunster

Sees potentialIT DIDN’T take Craig Lyons long to decide Terrace was where he wanted to live.

An Ontario native working in the vehicle auction business in that province, Lyons had already established a working relationship with the local Mazda dealership.

One thing led to another through a tele-phone conversation one day and “five days later I was on a plane to Ter-race,” recalls Lyons, 53, who has lived here now for two years.

“I really see the po-tential for the area and for the town. With the right people in place we can really move for-ward,” he says. “When I look around, I just want to be part of it.”

Lyons, who now works for National Car Rentals, sees parallels here with what has hap-pened in Niagara-On-The-Lake, Ontario, the city in which he was living right before mov-ing here.

“It was really about how to keep the people without [having them] leave,” said Lyons of the situation back East.

He credited the es-tablishment of Niagara College, a post second-ary institution, with helping set up a stable economic base in the

Niagara region. “What that did was bring in other businesses in support,” says Lyons. “There’s even an in-dustrial park. Success brings other success.”

Ironically, adds Ly-ons, the success of Niagara College’s cu-linary arts program meant that its most suc-cessful graduates were quickly taken away by restaurants and hotels across North America, meaning the area was losing some of its most capable young people.

Seeing how diver-sification helped the Niagara area, Lyons wants that to be at the forefront of city plan-ning here.

While he favours growth, specifically in-frastructure which will lead to development, Lyons says it’s impor-tant to do it right.

“You just don’t want to take away that small-town atmosphere but you want to be strategi-cally placed as the area grows,” said Lyons.

What he would like to see is a well-planned downtown that’s wel-coming to pedestri-ans and has night time lighting.

And he’s also an ad-vocate for a diversifica-tion of the population.

“Through my in-volvement with Skeena

Diversity,” said Lyons of the local social ser-vices agency, “I see a lot of diversification starting to happen here – people of differing ethnic backgrounds. Di-versification of popula-tion is its own economic generator.”

Lyons was nominat-ed by Bruno Belanger and Chayo Moses Nyawello. Craig Lyons

Learn more about the KSM ProjectLearn more about the KSM Project

It has been a busy fall for Seabridge Gold, the company proposing to build the KSM Project, a copper-gold-silver-molybdenum mine located 65 kilometers northwest of Stewart, BC. From spending time in local communities, to receiving several important permits, to a successful exploration session at camp, the highlights of our fall are detailed in this article. Connecting with the CommunityThis fall offered the Seabridge team a chance to connect with the community, provide an update on the KSM Project and answer questions from the public. The Seabridge team, which contained experts on fi sheries, water quality, wildlife and tailings dams, participated in 10 open houses across the northwest. Over a two week period, we met with community members in Iskut, Dease Lake, Telegraph Creek, Gitlaxt’aamiks, Git-winksihlkw, Laxgalts’ap, Gingolx, New Hazel-ton and Terrace. The meetings were hosted by Environment Canada and Fisheries and Oceans Canada. We talked to individuals (and the occasional school group) about the KSM Project, and the high standards to which it will be built. “We had great conversations with locals who were interested in learning about the benefi ts, and risks, of an operating mine in northwest BC,” says Elizabeth Miller, Seabridge Gold’s Environmental Manager. “Residents had questions on fi sh and fi sh habitat, wildlife populations, air quality and water quality. And there were many questions about jobs, spe-cifi cally where the 1,800 construction workers and 1,040 full time staff would be hired from.”Tailings DamsUnderstandably, a question that was also asked in the communities was how Seabridge is going to ensure the safety of the tailings dam at KSM, once constructed. Seabridge is committed to the safe construction, operation, and closure of the KSM project and have

taken several steps to ensure this commit-ment is kept.• The tailing facility and dams have been

designed by an internationally recognized engineering fi rm Klohn Crippen Berger Ltd.

• The tailings facility at KSM is contained within a naturally confi ning valley, and will be operated as a discharge facility.

• For the recently completed environmental assessment review, an independent review of the tailings design had been conducted by Iain Bruce of BGC Engineering Inc. to make certain the facility design is both safe and robust.

• Seabridge is currently assembling an independent panel of experts to fully review the tailing dam design throughout the construction, operation and closure.

“As always, the open houses were a positive experience. It has been great to meet and talk with people from so many different parts of the northwest to be able to answer questions face to face. We look forward to the next time we are hold community sessions. But we welcome questions anytime,” Elizabeth adds.Construction PermitsIn late September, the KSM project received early-stage construction permits from the Province of British Columbia. The permits issued include: 1. Authority to construct and use roadways

near Coulter Creek and Treaty Creek; 2. Rights-of-way for the proposed Mitchell-

Treaty tunnels connecting project facilities;

3. Permits for constructing and operating numerous camps required to support construction activities; and

4. Permits authorizing early-stage construction activities at the mine site and tailings management facility.

Receiving these construction permits affi rms the value of early and extensive consultation.

The permits would not have been possible without the important contributions of the Nisga’a Nation and First Nations. The Provincial Government, too, has supported the KSM Project and we are grateful for the diligence of the offi cials from the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resources Operations, the Ministry of the Environment, and the Ministry of Energy and Mines.Environmental Assessment Certifi cate ConditionsSeabridge has also been working closely with regulators and Treaty and First Nations to achieve several EA conditions, as illustrated by a recent tour at a water treatment plant with members of the Gitanyow First Na-tion, Nisga’a Treaty Nation and Tahltan First Nation and regulators from BC Ministry of Energy and Mines, Ministry of Environment and Environment Canada. Another Successful Exploration Session at KSM CampThe Seabridge camp has now closed for the winter after being operated over a 5 month time period. The exploration program drilled approximately 30,000m and the early indications are that this year’s program successfully added to resources. We look forward to seeing everybody back when the exploration camp reopens in spring 2015. Next StepsAfter receiving provincial approval on July 30, 2014, Seabridge is now focused on obtaining the Federal approval, and the remaining approximately 100 additional operating permits, strategic partnerships and project fi nancing prior to commencing construction.

Answers to the questions asked by residents and more information about the project are available at www.ksmproject.com.

Jessica McCallum-Miller

Safety a priorityHAVING JUST turned 21 earlier in October, some may think Jessica McCallum-Miller is too young to be an effective political leader.

But McCallum-Miller takes exception to such an assessment as she makes a � rst bid for Terrace city coun-cil, touting herself as the voice of youth and change in Terrace and area, and noting her ex-perience goes back to when she was head of student council at her high school, Parkside Secondary.

McCallum-Miller has already won a seat as director for Area C, the rural area north of Terrace stretching down to Lakelse Lake and be-yond, on the Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine board, winning it through acclamation because she was the only candidate.

Born and raised in Terrace, McCallum-Miller keeps busy with her work as artist and dispatcher for Kalum Kabs. She is also the youth representative of the Metis Society, board member of Ter-race Healthy Commu-nities committee, sits on the city’s youth ad-visory committee and was part of the 24-Hour Community Centre Board where she helped in 2011 to organize a hunger awareness cam-paign to support hungry youth.

“We are stricken with poverty,” she said of her main drive to be a city councillor. “Seeing it change and worsen for people here made me really want to change things. I have grown up in this town, I have been part of the change happening in the community.”

As an artist, she says she promises to brings a creative � are to her pub-lic role and has many ideas about promoting alternative energy proj-ects.

However she says she is � rmly rooted in the material world with strong interest in public works.

She admits to hav-ing a “knack for plumb-ing”, and enjoyed her time learning about wa-ter pressure and water mains when she volun-teered with the regional district.

“Water � ltration has always interested me,” she said.

The candidate said

she will focus on both promoting more afford-able housing but also making sure that cur-rent housing in Terrace is safe.

After recent � res in housing on the south side, McCallum-Miller said safety would be a priority. “I want to make sure there are � re extinguishers, that there are � re escapes,

that every home is made safe and secure and of course affordable and sustainable housing.

“I’m not saying I know everything, but I am willing to learn, and to be part of the change that is happening.”

McCallum-Miller was nominated by Wil-liam Jay Grif� ths and Carol-Ann Margaret Schmidt.

Business vote promotedTHE BC Chamber of Commerce is calling on candidates to voice their views on bringing back the busi-ness vote.

“Many taxpaying business own-ers in B.C. don’t live in the same town as their business – meaning they don’t get a vote,” said John Winter, president and CEO of the BC Chamber of Commerce. The local chamber is a member.

“These businesses have no voice in any election or referendum pro-cess that will directly impact their

business,” he said. Up until 1993, B.C.’s businesses had a business or “corporate” vote, meaning that they could vote in municipal elec-tions.

Winter noted that there’s prec-edent for giving a vote to non-resi-dent business owners.

Currently, residential property taxpayers have the right to vote in both the municipality where they reside as well as in another munici-pality where they own property as a non-resident owner.

City council candidatehas deep roots hereTERRACE CITY coun-cil candidate Allan Mc-Intyre has some of the deepest roots in the area of those seeking munic-ipal office this election.

They go back to his great-grandfather, mis-sionary J.B. McCul-lagh, who lived and worked in the Nass Val-ley in the late 1800s and early 1990s.

And his grandmother operated a restaurant in the Nass Valley for years.

McIntyre, 43 and born in Terrace, himself lived in the Nass for 13 years when his father was stationed there as a fisheries officer.

“I went to school there and from that know some of the [Nisga’a] leaders of today. And hopefully those relationships will come in handy as we move forward with First Nations as our neigh-bours,” said McIntyre.

Now an independent construction contrac-tor and safety officer

on proposed pipeline projects and other de-velopments, McIntyre worked at the Skeena Cellulose sawmill here when it went into bank-ruptcy protection and eventually closed in the early part of the last de-cade.

“A lot of families were disrupted and a lot of people had to leave,” he recalls.

It was that experi-ence which makes Mc-Intyre cautious about the improving econom-

ic climate of today.“We need to be

choosy about who we do business with. That’s not to say we’re closed to business, but we should be careful,” Mc-Intyre states.

He favours the city encouraging the devel-opment of local trades training, particularly among the young First Nations population, to reduce the dependence on temporary foreign workers should major developments being promoted in the region take hold.

“They are future taxpayers and contribu-tors to the culture of our city,” said McIntyre of the area’s youth.

He feels taxpayers are generally satisfied with the general direc-tion the current city council is taking the city.

“I know there’s an issue about spending money on the Co-op lands,” McIntyre said about the city’s contin-

ued financial commit-ment to obtain environ-mental clearance so the property can be sold. “But it’s not going to get done otherwise.”

And although Mc-Intyre has heard com-plaints about the city’s new recycling program, he believes it will grow on residents and he fa-vours expanding it.

McIntyre was nomi-nated by Carol Fielding and Ernest Froese.

Lucy Praught

TERRACE CITY council hopeful Lucy Praught says she will bring a fresh approach to city council’s deal-ings with industry if elected.

Her education and work background lies in business, as she holds diploma in busi-ness from Northwest Community College and an MBA from the University of Northern British Columbia ob-tained in 2013. She also owned and operated a bike shop in Terrace for five years called Out Spoke’n – that was be-tween 2005 and 2010 – and currently owns a consulting business Called Spirit Strategies.

Praught is 35 and moved to Canada from California when she was 11 with her parents who were missionaries in the Terrace area. Her father is now a well-known veterinarian working in Thornhill.

Praught sees indus-try as potentially solv-ing social problems and thinks the current council could do more to draw value from dealings with the big

companies coming to the area.

She mentioned high numbers of locals re-lying on charity food programs such as one offered by the Kermode Friendship Society.

“As we look at ser-vices like Kermode Friendship that are in our community, what are their needs?” she said.

Praught said that as someone who rents housing she knows first-hand the challenges fac-ing housing in the north.

“I myself rent, and I myself feel vulnerable. If I were to be renovict-ed I would have to think about where I am going to live,” she said.

“We’re talking a staggering number of people,” she said of the thousands who would come if LNG facilities and pipelines get built.

Praught played a lead role in arranging a trip for 100 northwest secondary school stu-dents to a provincially-sponsored LNG con-ference in Vancouver earlier this year.

She said she did it to empower students about making the right educa-tional choices now to secure local careers in the future.

Praught’s foray into consulting started with a one-year job at Enbridge as one of its northwest commu-nity liaisons in its bid to build the Northern Gateway pipeline.

“Enbridge was such a small portion of my life,” she said, adding that her work with com-panies that might not be universally accepted “don’t reflect on me.”

She now works for EllisDon, a major Ca-nadian construction ser-vices company.

Praught was nomi-nated by Heimke Hal-dane and Bert Husband.

Les WatmoughOct 8, 1931 - Oct 27, 2013

It has been a long and diffi cult year for many who knew you.We have visited your trapline and have seen you tending to your traps and your cabin. It’s going to be a long cold winter, dress warm

Loved and missed by your Family, wife Diane,

children Alice, Marilyn, Kathy and Albert, and grandchildren Curtis, Jacob, Alyssa, Vaughn,

Scott and Erin

We miss his smile, his kindly ways,With him we spent happy days,His nature was loving and giving,His heart was made of pure gold,We have lost, Heaven has gained,The most wonderful man in the world, So We will hold you in our hearts, until we meet again.We miss and love you very much!

Your wife Hazel, Samantha (Camilla), Shannon (Tyler), Peter Jr. (Julie),

Nikki (Thomas) and your grandchildren

Peter Russell NyceFeb. 16, 1954 - Oct. 29, 2007

Heli GerdeiMarch 26, 1949 - Oct. 18, 2014

Heli past away in her sleep Saturday morning at home. Heli was born in Brisbane, Australia to George & Thelma Martin. Heli grew up on south Molle Island at the Barrier Reef. She loved traveling and ended up in Vancouver, B.C., where she met in 1973 her husband Gus. We were married in Terrace in 1976 where we ran a Restaurant & Pub.

Heli was the love of my life and will be sorely missed by me, her friends and acquaintances. She is survived by her sister Carolyn, daughters Liesl, Pam & son Michel and many dear relatives in Australia.

No memorial will be held at this time. A celebration of life will be held in May 2015.

Contribution in lieu of fl owers may be made to the cancer society of your choice.

Forever in my heart and memoryYour loving Husband.

ThanksI would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the Pre-

ceptor Gamma Omicron chapter of Beta Sigma Phi, Save on Foods, Ideal Office Solutions, Canadian Tire, and all the wonderful individual volunteers who are invaluable community partners in the annual B.C. Thanksgiving Food Drive. This is an annual event in many British Columbia communities, spearheaded by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and supported by caring communi-ty groups and individuals with the sole aim of providing food and other necessities for those in need. As reported earlier, this year we were able to collect 500 pounds of food for the Terrace Churches’ Food Bank, and we are looking forward to surpassing that amount next fall.

Again, thank you to all our community sponsors, and indeed to our generous community as a whole. Terrace is an openhearted and wonderful city in which to live.

Norma Bohle, Terrace Coordinator, BCTFD

In Memoriam

Tom Munson

Feb 20, 1959 -Oct. 29, 2009

The Day GodTook You Home

A million timesI’ve needed you

A million times I’ve cried,If love alone

Could have saved youyou never would have died.

In life I loved you dearly,In death I love you still.

In my heart you hold a place,No one else can ever fill.

It broke my heart to lose you,But you didn’t go alone

Part of me went with you,The day God took you home.

Love Always, Jackie, Jocelyn,

Braiden & Ashton

■Srebrny! POLAND - It was a silver (that’s srebrny in Polish) medal for Terrace’s Al-lan Heinricks as part of Team Canada at the first ever World Disabled and Deaf Armwrestling Championship in Puck, Poland earlier this month. He travelled to the competition Oct. 7 to 12 with his companion Tania Dos-talek. But it wasn’t all about the medals. “I also became a member of the first Congress the World Armwrestling Federation for Disabled,” he said. Each country has one vote, and resolutions voted on and passed include voting to have drug testing, with a list of banned drugs to be published, he said. “It is also my responsibility to enlist disabled and deaf individuals into this great sport of armwrestling,” said Heinricks.

TERRACE SWIMMERS learned valuable lessons about life in and out of the pool dur-ing this month’s Swim BC re-gional camp in Kitimat.

Seven Terrace Bluebacks attended the camp, after eight qualified last year – one is re-covering from a broken arm.

“It was a great way to kick off our season,” said coach Mike Christensen via email last week.

One of the highlights was “the incredible opportunity of having 2007 World Cham-pion and 2012 Olympic Med-alist Brent Hayden assisting throughout the weekend. He is not only one of the great champions of Canadian swim-ming, but demonstrated amaz-ing ability as a communicator and coach. His stories of per-severance and determination had the kids mesmerized.”

That’s true for Bluebacks Mackenzie Bannister and Bella Lang, both 11, speaking during swim practice Oct. 21.

“It was really cool to know his story,” said Lang. “He told us about his struggles and go-ing to different places.”

Part of that struggle was a tough time focussing when he was younger, added Ban-

nister, something she said she understands.

She said he told the group focussing will get easier as they get older.

Olympic inspiration for Terrace swimmers

Kings get physicalIT WAS a particularly scrappy matchup between the Terrace River Kings and the Smithers Steelheads in Smithers two weekends ago, a game that ended with 10 game miscon-ducts – five a piece – and the Steelheads breaking the River Kings’ win streak.

Smithers took the game 5-3, putting the Kings at 3-1 for the 2014/2015 CIHL season.

“In my opinion Smithers came out to fight in retaliation for their resounding defeat by us the week before,” said River Kings general manager Ray Hallock last week, refer-encing the Oct. 4 game that saw the Kings come away with a 9-4 win.

“Five fighting penalties for Smithers and Terrace and five game misconducts a couple at least in the last 10 minutes of the game which carry au-tomatic one game suspen-sions or seven days whichever comes first,” he said. “In our case we got lucky since we have next weekend off the seven days will pass and my guys will not have to sit out a game.”

The River Kings face Kiti-mat this Friday in Terrace.

That steelhead are the least abun-dant species of Pacific salmon has been well known to fisheries sci-entists for almost as long as the

creatures have been studied, but accurate estimates of steelhead populations in most of this province’s rivers wasn’t available until the late 1970s. When the censuses were complete it was clear that steelhead numbers were far lower than had previous-ly been thought. This realization precipitat-ed a management crisis in what was then known as the Fish and Wildlife Branch of the Ministry of the Environment.

The fisheries managers had several op-tions, each of which was certain to be viewed unfavourably by a significant seg-ment of the sport fishing community: all steelhead fishing could be closed; hatcher-ies programs could be instituted with a view to augmenting wild runs with hatchery fish; drastically reduced bag limits could be put in effect; gear restrictions could be imple-mented; and, catch and release fisheries could be encouraged and/or imposed by fiat.

Suspicions about the efficacy of hatch-ery programs fostered by troubling experi-ences in Washington State and Oregon, the cost of artificial enhancement, as well as the resolute opposition to hatchery tech-nology by the Steelhead Society of BC dampened the managerial appetite for wide spread adoption of such programs.

Reduced limits were established province wide. Bait bans were imposed on the major-ity of B.C.’s rivers, and non-retention regula-tions for steelhead became commonplace.

The fish and wild-life professionals in this province have a client group consist-ing of hunters and fish-ers. This is because the institution they work for evolved from a province-wide group of rod and gun clubs that eventually formed into the BC Wildlife Federa-tion. In its modern in-carnation, the fisheries professionals in charge of the care and feeding of provincial fish stocks have a mandate that in-sists they put the wel-fare of those fish above all else, which we hope they strive do in all cas-es, but they still have to be mindful of the fact that hunting and angling are an impor-tant part of the province’s cultural fabric.

Steelheaders have always been the most proactive and vocal group of anglers in B.C. Many of them had already opted for restrictive voluntary self regulations. They championed the adoption of catch and re-lease fisheries. It is hardly surprising then that this lobby had resonance within gov-ernment since it provided a way to keep steelhead fisheries open with minimal damage to the fish.

Now that catch and release is the norm in the provincial steelhead fishery, it’s easy

to forget that when the technique was first pro-moted it was highly con-tentious, its opponents arguing that released steelhead died. In op-position to this argu-ment, I often cited the experience fisheries sci-entists and technicians had when doing ground breaking work in radio telemetry.

To learn more about the habits of steelhead, biologists like Mark Beere and Colin Spence ran programs that in-volved placing radio transmitters in steelhead then tracking them from the air. In the early days

of these programs, the steelhead were an-gled with a rod and reel and bait, transmit-ters were shoved down their throats after scale samples were plucked from their hides, and tags were punched on either side of their dorsal fins. Of the many fish handled this way over the years, the only ones lost were those killed by anglers en-couraged to return tagged fish for a reward. Surely, I argued, this documented experi-ence showed that a steelhead released by an angler was unlikely to die later. Now I’m not so sure.

First, the fisheries professionals used heavy rods and lines and knew how to han-

dle fish. The steelhead they caught were quickly brought to shore. They were kept in water as much as possible and handled with wet hands before careful release. In contrast, I have watched anglers with clearly no knowledge of proper fish han-dling play fish to the point of exhaustion before dragging them onto the beach then hoisting them aloft a number of times for a photo op. I’m sure these characters believe that their quarry will survive as they watch it swim away, but having had a few float past me dead after a manhandling over the years, I don’t share their confidence.

Even if a steelhead that has suffered this kind of abuse survives, there is a growing body of knowledge that indicates that there are sub-lethal effects to an animal that has experienced such trauma, notably its abil-ity to spawn successfully. There is really no way of determining the spawning suc-cess of the aforementioned steelhead that endured the rigours of radio telemetry.

All this points to the need for even more draconian regulations for non-retention fisheries. There needs to be a stricter defi-nition of what constitutes a fly, one that ex-cludes trailing hooks. A regulation that pro-hibits the removal of fish from the water, as Washington State has done, is vital. Limits on how many steelhead can be caught then released is necessary. My personal self im-posed limit is two fish, and it’s more than enough. And, importantly, all this must be accompanied by written educational mate-rial with links to demonstration videos on proper fish handling.

TERRACE BLUEBACKS and coach with Olympic medalist Brent Hayden, top row, second from left, at the Swim BC regional camp in Kitimat two weeks ago.

From Page A27

Terrace Bluebacks take away Olympic-sized life lessons

“He told us since he’s not swimming anymore, that he’s re-tired, he has other stuff to keep him busy. He’s making a chil-dren’s’ book and he’s in a com-pany with the United States for a granola bar,” said Lang.

“He was in a commercial for Powerade,” said Bannister.

The two were inspired by a story Hayden recounted about his gold-medal win.

“When he got his medal, his gold medal, his grandpa was dy-ing at the time and he went to see his grandpa for the last time and said ‘I’m going to win a medal for you,’” said Lang. “And then he won his gold medal.”

Bannister, who has been com-petitively swimming for two-and-a-half years, said she got to spend some one-on-one time with Hayden on the first day be-cause an ear infection meant she couldn’t swim.

During that session, her first with an Olympic medalist, he helped her with her butterfly technique, telling her to bend her arms a little bit more, something she said has helped her time al-ready.

“He really helped me with my fly,” she said.

Hayden “had a good sense of humour” and was easy to be around, she said.

Lang added that he helped the group with their dives and free-

style techniques. Another high-light for the girls was the chance to see themselves swim on video, and both say that will help their training this season.

“Seeing yourself swim through it, there was a camera in the water,” said Bannister.

“When we went through, [the cameraman] would rewind it so we’d be able to see ourselves and what we needed to improve on and then one of the other coaches would help us.”

It wasn’t just the Olympic experience that the swimmers

took away from the weekend – both said the local and provincial coaches also held helpful train-ing sessions.

“The provincial coach really helped us,” said Lang.

“Our coaches too,” said Ban-nister.

THE TERRACE Off-Road Cycling Association (TORCA) is encour-aging everyone who enjoys riding Terrace’s trail network to give the trails a break following this month’s extra heavy rainfall.

“Some trails, especially fresh/new or trails with lots of clay or or-ganics on the surface get damaged when ridden during wet weather,” said TORCA’s Tyler Wilkes. “Last week there were rivers running down most of the trails, and skid-ding tires down only compounds the problem.”

“Instead it’s a great time to go for a hike with a shovel or a rake and clear drains, drain mud holes, and clear debris and leaves,” he said.

And TORCA’s Tara Irwin said there are plans to have a community raking and clean-up day soon, like-ly focused on the Terrace Mountain trail, but taking in the nearly-com-pleted Steinhoe Ridge trail if the group has enough volunteers.

The group is also conducting a survey for anyone who uses the net-work – cyclists, dog walkers, hik-ers, runners, etc. – to help TORCA and similar groups plan for the next five years. The survey can be found here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/FDDHNXG

For more information on how to get involved with Terrace’s bike community, the Bicycling in Ter-race Facebook group is a fine way to start.

Safety Tip:As the days get darker in fall and winter, crashes involving

pedestrians increase in B.C. When you’re driving, take extra precautions to

watch for pedestrians who are harder to see at this time

of year. Do your part to help share our roads safely.

Question of the WeekBob McHugh writes this week about buying a used Nissan Leaf for a price considerably below the price for a new version of the all-electric car. Would you buy a used electric car or would you be worried about its reliability?

A ‘tail’ of horsepower among the rambling poniesThe New Forest, England - Horse-power rules the roads through this picturesque national park on the south coast.Around 4,000 in horsepower charge freely around the almost 57 hectares of flatland, less than half of which is true forest while the rest is made up mainly of marsh and pasture, dotted with an-cient villages. Of course, I’m not talking about powerful sports cars but the real ponies that graze this land.A regal BMW 328i seemed fitting for a journey through a park, declared an exclusive royal hunting ground back in 1079 by King William.There are many road points of entry but I roared in rather rudely via the M27 motorway, which gallops into the area before stopping abruptly at Cadnam. The park’s beauty was evident for the last five kilometres on both sides of the fast track. I pulled on the reins of the 241 horses under the hood. The four-cylinder twin turbo obediently pulled back ever so smoothly.It was early morning and mist shrouded the marshes that suddenly disappeared from sight a couple of kilometres beyond one of the many sleepy villages I passed through. I powered down the front windows and the whine of their motor was the last sound I heard for the next 20 minutes, save the occasional rumble from a cattle grid beneath. The eight-speed sport auto transmission would not be challenged on this terrain and the shift paddles would remain redundant.Gradually, the fog lifted from the narrow lane to reveal marshland as far as the eye could see. In the distance, I spied some of the famed ponies cantering, splashing as they bounded through streams. But the treat was at the roadside ahead. A group of mag-nificent specimens with shiny coats and tails that

occasionally swatted at imaginary flies. They looked at the metal steed that carried me for a few seconds before returning to their breakfast.Soon I was on an A-class road that allowed the BMW to break into a trot though not for long, as my eyes alight-ed on a sign that shouted ‘Ponies don’t dent, THEY DIE’. A short distance away I rolled to a stop at a junction where a diamond road marking reminded me that ponies have the right of way – always. And that was driven home as a line of ten cars followed slowly behind half a dozen horses strolling into a village centre.A stop at the New Forest Centre in Lyndhurst spurred me on to explore the heath land, coloured by late bloom-ing flowers that would soon yield to an autumnal chill. Wildlife abounds

wherever you look but interestingly Beaulieu village (pronounced Bewley) is the home to the fabulous National Motor Museum. After a visit, I pressed on only to be distracted by a car showroom. Not a modern dealership but one that sold only classic and collector cars! I pulled into a picnic area by a small lake. As I chomped on an ox tongue sandwich I remembered a lunch I had with former Bad Company/Free front man Paul Rodgers, now a White Rock resident. He told me he has a recording studio in the New Forest – perhaps, he would sing me a soulful rendition of the blues song ‘Rambling Pony’. I giggled then gasped as I turned to find myself staring eye to eye with a donkey.It backed off as I opened the door to brush the crumbs and specks of meat from the oyster coloured leather seats. It walked around the Bimmer, kicking the tires you might say, seemingly looking over its sleek lines.

I followed closely like an eager salesman, telling him about the car’s finer standard features, its fuel economy (8.7/5.4 L/100kms city/highway), its ability to hit 100 klicks in 7.5 seconds. Maybe that last fact was a bit insensitive, given the nature of the beast before me.He remained silent throughout. ‘What is a donkey doing among all of these horses,’ I thought aloud. He turned, gave me a withering look before shambling away and replied: “Technically, they are ponies – short horses – and having a short ass like me around makes them feel superior.”Smart ass.Price Range: $35,900- $58,300. You can find out more about the car at bmw.ca and the horses – sorry, ponies at newforestnpa.gov.uk

It’s hard to remember a time when we didn’t have the RAV4 in Canada. Toyota helped develop the “cute-ute” vehicles from Japan, along with the Honda CR-V. We had never seen anything like these vehicles before but they went on to forever change the marketplace and the way a family gets around. Today the compact SUV market has become so popular it will soon exceed the compact car in terms of overall sales, which has been, for decades, the cor-nerstone of the Canadian marketplace. The Toyota RAV4 continues to be a sales market leader and for good reason. Many buyers put their money into what I call “The Bank of Toyota” and know they will get a good return in terms of reliability, practicality and resale value.

LooksIn terms of design, Toyota wanted to make this latest RAV4 more of an emotional purchase and not just a rational choice. The design has been sharpened with more flow from the front bumper and headlamps into a swept windshield and added character lines. Gone is the old swing-out tailgate, replaced by a proper lift gate, which is now framed with protruding tail lamps that look unique but also help with aerodynamics. One area that could use an update are the cheap looking hubcaps. These come standard on the $24,005 base front wheel drive (FWD) LE trim level and $26,270 AWD model. To get proper looking alloy wheels the buyer needs to spend $28,340 for the XLE FWD or $30,540 for the XLE AWD. In the mid-sized

sedan market many cars, like the Honda Ac-cord, costing the same amount as the base RAV4 come with nice looking alloy wheels as standard equipment.InsideThe interior is a study in how to maximize space for a family but some of the small details could use refinement. The dash face is now covered with soft materials and looks much better thanks to the French stitch-ing but this same panel also obscures the switches hidden below. The seat-heating buttons, the Eco and Sport settings for the transmission are all switches the driver access frequently but they are not as easy to see, as they should be. Other than the dash there is still a large percentage of the interior covered in hard plastic. The up side

is a well laid out interior configuration. The doors open to a wide angle and expose a big back seat with a flat floor, for easy access. The front seats are comfortable and now the driver’s seat has a manual height adjustment. Standard features include tilt and telescopic steering, Bluetooth connectiv-ity, USB connection and air conditioning. The LE $1,500 upgrade package is worthwhile because it includes the very important heated front seats, larger 6.1-inch display audio with backup camera and upgraded speakers. This brings the price up to $27,835. DriveHonda recently unveiled the new 2015 CR-V that utilizes direct injection engine

technology and a slick, new continuously variable transmission. Not the case with the Toyota RAV4, it uses the same 176hp 2.5L 4-cylinder found in the last model and is matched to a 6-speed automatic. Launching from a traffic light is brisk and the noise inside the cabin is fairly low. The steering is easy to maneuver but some might find the feedback to be too vague. Adjustable engine and transmission settings help the RAV4 to either use less fuel or perform better. The Eco button changes the settings of the car to improve fuel economy plus there is a small Eco light that reminds the driver when the car is being driven most efficiently. The Sport buttons holds the transmission a little longer between shifts for more responsiveness. Fuel economy is rated at 10.5L/100km in the city and 8.2L on the highway, using the new more stringent 2015 fuel economy test. The RAV4 was a solid leader on the fuel economy front but the new Honda CR-V now claims that crown.

VerdictToyota is often criticized for not being bold enough in some of the choices it makes. Honda now has up-to-date technology in the new CR-V but Toyota is sticking with what works. This approach might be viewed as a step behind but other might look at it as tried-and-true technology that is reliable and still delivers solid fuel ratings. Toyota RAV4 was a pioneer in the small SUV space and continues to be a market leader but now the market is so crowded with entries I suspect it will need to get new engine technology when it is totally refreshed in a few years. My time with the RAV4 LE con-firmed that Toyota knows how to make a thoroughly practical and easy to use vehicle that pleases all passengers.

Terrace mayor envisionsThornhill amalgamation

A ‘yes’ vote was needed in both communities for the referendum to be successful.

“There is still a lot of folks who would still say that Thornhill should do what it wants but I worry about that to a certain degree,” Pernarows-ki continued.

“Because like I said we have to look at the bigger picture. There are so many companies coming into this region and so much need for residential and commercial land, we could really work strongly together by getting infrastructure into Thornhill so we can attract types of indus-try.”

“Let’s join forces. We can be a superpower in the Northwest,” he said.

While pushing for a new form of amalgama-tion, Pernarowski said he would now leave fruit-ful debate to the municipal election now under-way.

Pernarowski, first elected in 2008 and re-elected in 2011, announced this spring he wouldn’t run again.


RURAL RESIDENT Richard Tiernan gives his views on the regional dis-trict’s garbage collection plan at its Oct. 24 meeting.

Garbage bylaw now approvedUrs Gasser thanked the

board for acknowledging the email his wife had sent, in which she expressed her con-cern about the safety aspects of the collection with the school bus being around and people riding horses.

He asked for clarification about when garbage collec-tion and recycling collection would take place.

Regional district official Roger Tooms answered, say-ing garbage collection would be every week and recycling collection every second week.

Allan Friberg said he was going to speak to the board’s “unacceptable conduct” in the last couple of meetings but said that the board had changed this time and was lis-tening to the people.

Board chair and Terrace representative Bruce Bidgood said it was his job to keep things in order and apologized publicly about how things got out of hand at previous meet-ings.

The vote came late in the evening and the bylaw was passed with all board mem-

bers voting in favour of it, ex-cept for Diana Penner, alter-nate director for Area C which is the rural Terrace area, who voting against it.

She asked for her vote to be noted in the minutes and then walked out afterward.

Curbside collection is set to start Nov. 17 and informa-tion guides, including a list of acceptable recyclables, collec-tion routes and schedules, will be sent to property owners.

Workshops to explain the how-tos of the service and to help residents prepare for the collections will be scheduled.

Two neighbourhoods that are part of the service area but are not included in the service yet will continue to be assessed. Those two areas are Kitselas, which is east of North Sparks St. in Terrace, and will be difficult to service based on topography of the area; and the west side of Usk. Alternatives will be assessed.

In addition, there are a few individual properties included in the service that will require further assessment to confirm the logistics of collection.
