RCMP nab home invasion suspect

What started as a home in-vasion in Quesnel Saturday morning ended in a spectacu-lar daytime crash and arrest along Highway 97 and Toop Road Saturday.

According to Williams Lake RCMP, the series of events began to unfold at 8:52 a.m. in Quesnel where a 28-year-old male suspect is alleged to have carried out a home inva-sion at a residence in the 500

Block of Reid Street. A homeowner awoke to

some suspicious noises and found a man going through a purse.

The suspect then fled the scene with a vehicle from the residence, a four-door Honda Civic.

Police issued a warning for RCMP north and south of Quesnel to keep a lookout for the suspect and vehicle.

According to Staff Sgt. Del Byron, following the home invasion, police received a re-

port at 11:12 a.m. of a break and enter at a residence at the community of Deep Creek just north of Williams Lake.

At 11:30 a.m., the suspect’s spree ended when he crashed the stolen vehicle onto the old commercial scales site across from Toop Road.

He attempted to flee the scene, however, was immedi-ately taken down by police, Byron said.

Byron wouldn’t comment on the particulars that led up to the crash, noting that more

information would be released at a later time.

The suspect was treated for minor injuries at Cariboo Me-morial Hospital and is cur-rently in custody awaiting his first court appearance on several charges relating to the incidents.

Byron said no one else was injured during the crime spree.

The suspect made an ap-pearance in Provincial Court Monday, however, remains in police custody as of press time.

Grow-op waste leads to contamination concerns: CRDRegional district board passes motion requesting recommendations

Illegal dumping of items related to grow-ops has the Cariboo Regional District looking for solutions.

“We’ve got people who either have ille-gal grow-ops or have medicinal license to grow and they are growing more than they should,” Area H director Margo Wag-ner said during the board’s Friday meet-ing.

“We had a massive dump across from the landfill a week ago. It’s cleaned up now, but I don’t know what the fix is.”

There was evidence found in the material that traced it back to an address in Surrey and it is being inves-

tigated by the RCMP, Wagner added.

The main item be-ing dumped is soil, Wagner said, add-ing it isn’t being dumped at the refuse sites because growers are worried the at-tendants will report them.

“But they aren’t there to report peo-ple and couldn’t care less. They are there to do a job, they aren’t there to report,” she said. “I have concerns about illegal dump-ing, but I have mas-sive concerns about what’s going into our water sources.”

Illegal dumping is also happening alongside the 108 Mile Road, Chair Al Richmond said add-ing the CRD has had success when environ-

mental services man-ager Mitch Minchau and the Ministry of Environment investi-gate incidents.

“In my area a few years ago there was illegal dumping of a whole bunch of mate-rial,” Richmond said.

“There were prob-ably 250 five-gallon pails from a bulk

station in Williams Lake.”

An investigation re-vealed where the pails came from and that led to the closure of an illegal grow-op.

There is an exist-ing unsightly prem-ises bylaw, however, it only pertains to private property, confirmed Karen

Moores, general manager of develop-ment services.

“What we’ve done on Crown land is con-tact the Conservation Officer Service and try and team up with them to get a resolu-tion,” Moores said. “I don’t think there’s a quick solution to it, but that’s how we’ve

been dealing with it so far.”

100 Mile House mayor Mitch Camp-sall suggested signage be placed over a sec-tion at sites for grow-op refuse at the sta-tions.

“That way it’s go-ing into the garbage where it should be and not being illegal-ly dumped,” Camp-sall said.

“You are better off to have it controlled than not.”

Before the sites were gated, there’d be massive influxes of dryer and washing machine drums, Wag-ner said.

“We had the biggest meth lab ever busted in Forest Grove and it had been going on for six years before it was busted. All of the

waste from the lab was going to the site. That’s what I said when people were op-posed to gating the site. If they had any idea what was going there they’d be only too glad the marshal-ling area was being controlled.”

At Eagle Creek where it isn’t gated, Wagner gets frequent calls because when local grow-ops in the area change their soil every six to eight weeks, the bins are full of garbage bags with the soil in them and the residents can-not get their house-hold garbage in them.

The board passed a motion request-ing staff bring back recommendations on how to handle the is-sue.

SCHOOL DISTRICT NO. 27(CARIBOO-CHILCOTIN)

HEALTHY TEETHYour Preschooler and… Healthy Teeth

Teeth are important to the total health of your child. Even though baby teeth are replaced by adult teeth, they are needed to help your child speak clearly, eat well and have a healthy smile.

Baby teeth also hold space in the mouth until the adult teeth come in typically around age 12 or 13. By age three, most children have 20 teeth. Tooth brushing helps prevent tooth decay and it needs good hand skills — skills not fully gained until age � ve, so preschoolers need your help to brush their teeth in the morning and before going to sleep at night. One way to make tooth brushing a healthy habit in your family is to brush your teeth at the same time as your child.

Try some of these with your preschooler:1. Use a pea-sized amount of � uoride toothpaste

on the toothbrush. Fluoride is a proven way to prevent cavities. Some children’s toothpastes do not have � uoride, so check the labels before you buy.

2. Practise putting the right amount of toothpaste on the brush with your child. Keep the toothpaste out of reach of younger children. The � avour of some � uoride toothpastes may tempt your child to use more than needed, and just a little � uoride is all that’s needed to help protect your child’s teeth.

3. Make a game of brushing teeth or make up a tooth brushing song like “Brush, brush, brush your teeth” to the tune of “Row, row, row your boat.”

4. Flossing is also important. Use a � oss pick or string � oss once a day to � oss your child’s teeth. It is best for an adult to do the � ossing for a young child.

5. Choose tooth-friendly snacks like cheese cubes and cut up fresh vegetables and fruit. Sugars and starches feed bacteria in the mouth that cause cavities. Sources of these include:

• soft drinks (pop), juice and other sweets; • sticky foods such as dried fruit and candy; • sweet foods such as cookies, granola bars,

chocolate, cake, pastries, doughnuts, muf� ns and sweetened gum;

• starchy foods such as crackers, noodles and chips.

If you offer these foods, do so at a snack or meal or have children brush their teeth right away.

6. Help your preschooler have good feelings about going to the dentist. Ask your public librarian for children’s books about going to the dentist and read them together.

After lunch, the boys faced off against the girls in a fun lehal game with the girls taking the win.

Originally from the Chilcotin and Williams Lake, Rebecca Solomon and Richard MacDonald now travel Canada sing-ing and performing the songs they write. The duo sent the workshop participants off with a few songs and words of encouragement.

The hip-hop/tradi-tional singer/songwriters also performed Saturday evening for an event at CJ’s. Rebecca attended the Vancouver Art Insti-tute for two years and in

addition to singing and songwriting is also a mu-sic producer.

Door prizes were drawn throughout the day with the final draws for four bikes were given away, two for boys and two for girls.

The event was orga-nized by the collective efforts of Changing Di-rections, Tl’etinqox’tin government; Tsilhqot’in National government; Denisiqi Services, and the Williams Lake Indian band.

The 59 people identi-fied during a homeless count on Feb. 16 do not represent the total pic-ture, according to Ian McLaughlin who chairs the Williams Lake Housing and Home-lessness Committee that conducted the survey.

“Our count was done in one day and there’s no way you’re going to capture everybody,” McLaughlin told the Tribune. “In terms of knocking on people’s doors that was only done at the housing complexes on Carson Drive.”

Members of the com-mittee also went to the Salvation Army, the Friendship Society and other places that home-less people gather.

However, homeless-ness outreach worker Wayne Lucier who helped with the count said ideally it would need to be done from Glendale all the way through the city to get the real number.

On average Lucier reaches out to 162 peo-ple a year, or 13.5 peo-ple a month, who are looking for a home.

“In a small town like ours, many of the homeless are hidden,” Lucier said. “They are able to locate a couch at a friend’s or four or five people will crash at an apartment.”

Lucier said as an ex-ample, he recently visit-ed a woman who set up bunk beds in her living room for people who need a place to stay.

“I’m the busiest I’ve been in six or seven years,” Lucier said of the growing needs in the community.

Standing inside an al-most empty metal ship-ping container he uses to store donations, Luc-ier said any used home furnishings would be appreciated, and will find their way to good homes.

The numbers tallied during the count will be used by the homeless-ness committee to ap-ply for funding to the federal government to

bring the Housing First program into Williams Lake, McLaughlin said.

Cities like Kamloops already have the pro-gram, which is credited with reducing homeless-ness.

“It shows what kind of outcomes are pos-sible,” added Tom Sal-ley, a Canadian Men-tal Health Association advocacy and support worker.

Presently the average rent in the city is $600 a month for a one bed-room apartment, which is problematic because people on social as-sistance receive about $610 a month.

“Many of the places that rent for $600 are not what one would call

safe housing,” Salley said.

If the community is successful in obtain-ing funding, a Housing First program could build on existing ser-vices such as the shelter the Friendship Society operates, Jubilee Place that Canadian Men-tal Health Association (CMHA) operates and the Salvation Army who is working on set-ting up some emergen-cy beds for when the weather gets really cold, McLauglin said.

McLaughlin has been the executive director of CMHA for one year and runs the Williams Lake Association for Community Living, something he’s done for 30 years.

There are two group homes in town for adults affected by de-velopmental disabilities and programs exist for people with disabilities who live on their own to receive support with shopping, banking, or whatever they need to ensure they are success-ful on their own.

A Housing First

program would bring needed supports to the community by building more affordable hous-ing, he said.

Landlords are en-gaging with the home-lessness committee, McLaughlin noted.

“I’m exploring some options with our funders so we can sit down with rental own-ers. Their concern is that they end up cleaning up the mess when people wreck their places.”

He said rental owners are hopeful the commit-tee can act as the middle man, making sure rents are paid and minor damages are repaired.

“That would be part of the Housing First dollars if we were suc-cessful that we would be hoping to implement here so that landlords aren’t having to deal with high risk tenants,” McLaughlin added.

The Association for Community Living is also working on a pro-posal to build a partially subsidized apartment building, outside the Housing First program, McLauglin said.

Recently, Taseko’s Gibraltar Mine earned the “Mineral Processor of the Year” Award from the Ca-

nadian Mineral Processors.Taseko was given the award for its excel-

lence by increasing production while low-ering costs through a $700 Million invest-ment in a modernization project. Reducing costs means Taseko can remain open, while other companies must slow down produc-tion, or shut down altogether.

Despite commodity prices like oil, sil-ver, nickel and copper going down the last few years, Taseko has proven itself to be dedicated towards lowering production costs. This means generating higher prof-its, which in turn helps to ensure it has a

fighting chance on remaining op-erational in times of austerity.

This is truly re-markable in the field of mining, especially when

the competition abroad is very tight.This is especially good news for Wil-

liams Lake, Quesnel, and 100 Mile House, where the majority of the 650 employees call home.

Taseko prioritizes safety for its employ-ees, the Gibraltar mine recently achieved the landmark of having zero time loss inci-dents in 2014 – a total of 1,711,467 person hours without a breech in employee safety.

Last year, Taseko-Gibraltar was award-ed the “Mining and Sustainability Award” for their commitment to responsible devel-opment and continuous improvement at all levels of operation including First Na-tions engagement, environmental steward-ship, operational efficiencies, and health and safety standards.

It is companies like Taseko that help keep British Columbia’s rural communi-ties economically strong while providing families with jobs and a network of sup-port.

The award, “Mineral Processor of the Year”, is given out sparingly, as only one award in its field can be given out per year when circumstances warrant.

So, I congratulate Taseko and all of its hard-working employees for this tremen-dous award. You’ve earned it!

Coralee Oakes is the MLA for Cariboo North and is the Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development.

Our Viewpoint

Happy April Fool’s Day

Gibraltar award well deserved

Maybe most days are fools’ days. There are so many weird and foolish things going on in our

country — in the world actually — one has to wonder.

Last week I complained that underfund-ing was diminishing the effectiveness of locally-elected school boards. Little did I know there was more to come. The prov-ince has now  introduced legislation giving itself considerable control over trustees and teachers. What’s going on?

In Saturday’s Vancouver Sun, Daphne Bramham described this as a “massive re-structuring” of the public education system. She said the Liberal government seems in-tent on impoverishing the province’s public

schools. It’s hard to know what else to think. The gov-ernment has had a vendetta against teachers and now it’s targeted trust-ees. Is Education

Minister Peter Fassbender saying he knows how to spend money better than they do, that Big Brother knows best?

The question is, why now? Last year the Conference Board of Canada released its first report card on education and ranked B.C. the No. 1 province in Canada on edu-cation and skills. We placed third on the world scale behind Japan and Finland, the countries used as benchmark comparisons for the study. If our existing system did that well in spite of underfunding, what heights could it reach with a little encouragement?

School boards have been around forever, maybe they have outlived their usefulness, but is there any hard evidence to show that a centralized authority can provide better services than a local one? Less costly maybe, but better quality? For instance, do Williams Lake area citizens get better service from the regional Interior Health Authority that we used to get from local health boards?

If Mr. Fassbender thinks school trustees aren’t up to the job, fine, but it’s all about money, not the students’ education. Picking away at the system is a painful and divisive way to solve problems, and of course, no one is asking the parents and/or taxpayers what they think about it. Maybe no one cares.

Speak up on mail timingDoor-to-door mail service is about to go

the way of the dodo bird, and along with it a sense of safety and security.

Canada Post has said it can’t afford to deliver door-to-door anymore and needs to come up with an alternative model for snail mail. The problem is, no one has a lot of con-fidence in the new system.

Sure, it was only a matter of time before the Crown corporation made this move be-cause it currently has a two-tier system, with some single-family homes getting door-to-door service while people in newer neigh-bourhoods or apartments and condos al-ready have to pick up their mail at a central location.

Unfortunately, despite efforts to strength-en community mailboxes, mail is still being stolen.

In February, there were reports of mail theft from both old and new community mail boxes, with thefts and damage com-plaints coming from several communities in the Lower Mainland.

Then in March, police busted a Lang-

ley home and found 15,000 pieces of stolen mail as well another 9,000 pieces in a storage locker.

Also last month, in Citadel Heights in Port Coquitlam, Mounties found 721 pieces of stolen mail as well as equipment for creating identity cards and credit cards and guns.

These issues only confirm what many sus-pect: No matter how strongly-built the new community mail boxes are, they will contin-ue to be a target in what has become a lucra-tive and increasingly sophisticated identity theft industry.

Canada Post has promised to consult widely before it fully rolls out community mail boxes and it’s not yet known when door-to-door delivery is supposed to end. The changeover is a five-year process and we can expect to hear as early as this December when it will be our turn.

Canada Post must tell Canadians what it plans to do to ensure mail service is pro-tected.

Questions need answers before restartEditor:

There is a lot of talk recently about a restart of the Mt. Polley Mine but there are numerous questions that need to be answered first.

If government was responsible for overseeing mining operations, including the tailings facility, then Energy and Mines Minister Bill Ben-nett should have been forced to resign soon after the worst disaster in B.C. mining history. If the mine was al-lowed to monitor its own tailings dam, then a judicial inquiry should be held to determine who made the decisions that caused the breach. Why wasn’t the tailings facility built on the other side of the mountain, in-stead of in a direct line with Quesnel Lake?

A quote from an opinion editorial in the Vancouver Sun of Feb. 11, “the dam failed because it wasn’t built and

used properly, while the Minister’s responsibility was to make sure that it was.”

The news from the research team from UNBC is not good. The tailings sludge sediment, containing several toxic heavy metals, has now dispersed throughout the West arm of Quesnel Lake up to the junction of the North arm, and eventually will pollute the entire lake, one of the clearest, deep-est fjord lakes in the world. From their extensive sampling and testing of the waters they determined con-centrations of heavy metals and tox-ins like arsenic and mercury spiked in December when the lake turned over, and reached unacceptable levels. This will happen again in April.

Upwelling and intrusions in the lake and its unique “rocking” motion will cause more dispersion. Bioaccu-mulation of the poisonous elements in the several species of trout and

salmon inhabit these waters is a ma-jor concern.

Politicians, both local and provin-cial, don’t seem to understand the se-riousness of what happened. Maybe they don’t care, because business and money is their focus. Industry provides revenue for government in the form of taxes and royalties. Busi-nesses just want the money to keep coming in.

There needs to be accountability for what has happened, and penal-ties assessed. Industry is allowed to have its way with our resources and government is complicit in their ir-responsible attitude. Behind it all is money, as usual. Some of us are closer to Earth than people sitting in their offices in Calgary or Vancouver who don’t care.

Climate solutions continue to melt away quicklyEditor:

We determine our destiny.   We are responsible.   We count.   We matter.  Our fossil-fuels prevail.  We passed safe climate limits for human civilization in 1987.   Cruise con-trolled, our wanton reckless fossil-fueled private logic is in the fast lane.

Worse possible outcomes are for future generations.   We melt away their climate solutions.   We decide their uncontrollable climate-tipping points.

Our 2009 Copenhagen Climate Summit failed to keep climate degra-dation below 1.5C   Our fossil-fuels smothers scientifically expressed Carbon budgets.  Our private logic, maladapted to life and Nature, reaps a grim 2C Carbon budget.

Speed ahead 35 years to possible 4C.  Compete for genocidal 4C or 6C in 85 years.

Speed Canada’s fossil-fuel indus-try beyond the Paris 2015 Climate Summit, beyond 2C, way beyond global safety. Suppress compelling scientific climate data for our wan-ton recklessness. Hide our crimes against humanity from ourselves and our children. Invite our fate.

Secured human civilization for all? Missing is meaningful democratic co-operative social action providing their climate protection. Failing is bitter for our children and grandchil-dren.

Bitter for us is phasing out our fossil-fuelled private logic beginning now before 2020, phased out by 2050.

Phased out are pathological power and control that foments fear-based anti-social competition. Phased out are man-against-man-against-life-against-nature alienating inhuman conglomerations. Unstable, lying to

ourselves and our children, compet-ing, extracting, shipping, shopping, consuming, driving, flying, warring without limits, to extinction.

Phased out are our fears, our doin-ance and submission for democratic social equality.   Our fear of inferi-ority breeds unstable pathological power and control.  We contest for power, for control, destroying our social interest, our common welfare.

We hold in awe, 80 plutocrats accumulating more global wealth than 3.5 billion human beings.  We consolidate their global power and control.  

We conserve our global poverty, shrink our middle-class, shave our social services ... indebted ... reap “Masters” with autocratic power di-minishing democratic social equality.

The Opposition Standing Committee for Agriculture and Food will be in Wil-liams Lake next week to hear presentations on issues affecting agri-culture and food in the Cariboo.

“Williams Lake is our first public meeting as a committee and I’m excited to hear people’s ideas,” says committee chair Lana Popham. “This is an opportunity to bring your concerns and ideas forward to help shape agriculture and food policy in B.C.”

The Opposition Committee was estab-lished in response to concerns that the B.C. government was not

taking a balanced ap-proach in the creation of its agriculture and food policies.  The com-mittee is made up of five Opposition MLAs and one Independent. It is the first committee of its kind in B.C.

“We would like to hear from everyone in the community,” says committee vice chair and Independent MLA Vicki Huntington.

“We want to better understand how the government’s current agriculture strategies are affecting the re-gion. All organizations and individuals are welcome to share their views.”

The committee is holding a public meet-

ing in Williams Lake on Wednesday, April 8, between 1 and 8 p.m. in room 1319 of Thomp-son Rivers University’s Williams Lake campus.

If you are interested in participating e-mail [email protected] or call 250-479-4154 to arrange a time.

Presentations should be approximately 10 minutes in length.

Cariboo Regional District approves proposed budgets for 2015

During its board meetings Friday, March 27, the Cari-boo Regional Hospi-tal District (CRHD), the Cariboo Chilcotin Regional Hospital Dis-trict (CCRHD) and the Cariboo Regional Dis-trict (CRD) proposed 2015 Budgets and Five-Year Financial Plans were adopted.

The total CRD req-uisition increase is at six per cent.

New and improved services sits at approxi-mately a seven per cent increase and includes two large capital proj-ects which were ap-proved through 2014 referenda (North Cari-boo Arena Replace-ment project and the Sam Ketcham Pool upgrade in the Central Cariboo).

For existing services throughout the region, there is an overall de-crease of one per cent.

Budgets will be post-ed on the CRD website next week at cariboord.

Little Britches Rodeo special projects

funding

CRD Electoral Areas G, H and L will be ac-cessing $50 each from their Special Projects funds to sponsor the 100 Mile and District Outriders Club’s Little Britches Rodeo.

This year’s event is being held May 16, 2015.

More informa-tion about the Little Britches Rodeo is avail-able online at 100mile-outriders.com/rodeo.html.

Community Works funding approved

Up to $11,000 of Community Works funds were approved from the 2015 Com-munity Halls Improve-ments envelope by the CRD Board for the Williams Lake Sports-men’s Association.

The Association re-quested the funding to install energy efficient exterior doors at the Williams Lake Sports-men’s Association Clubhouse.

Later in the meet-ing, the board also ap-proved a request for up to $6,600 of Commu-nity Works Funding for the Lone Butte Histori-cal Association.

The funding will be used to perform work to prevent basement flooding and install insulation at the Al-ice Singleton Heritage House. Annual flood-ing of the basement has resulted in significant use of the sump pump, adding greatly to the Association’s yearly hydro use, and damage to the old furnace that had to be replaced at a cost of $4,000.

Highway and Enterprise Road

upgrades requested

At the request of the

Electoral Area E Direc-tor Byron Kemp, the CRD will be sending a letter to the Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure (MOTI) to request upgrades to Highway 97 and Enter-prise Road.

The request will be for the Ministry to add lighting to the intersec-tion and the addition of a turning lane off Highway 97 north onto Enterprise Road be im-plemented to help miti-gate the hazard that is currently posed to trav-ellers on this route.

The board will also be sending a letter to MOTI to request that the quality of paint used to mark highways throughout the region be restored to the pre-vious reflective prod-uct.

The current materi-als being used are of an inferior quality, wear off quickly and are very difficult to see during inclement weather con-ditions.

Procurement and Investment policies

endorsed

The CRD board en-dorsed new procure-ment and investment policies.

The purpose of the Procurement Policy is to achieve the best overall value for the CRD, its customers, and taxpay-ers in its acquisition of goods and services.

The overriding objec-tive is to select qualified suppliers in a way that is open, fair, transparent and non-discriminatory.

The Investment Poli-cy is designed to provide the framework for in-vestment portfolio man-agement.

The Regional District invests CRD funds in a manner that will provide the optimal blend of in-vestment security and return while meeting the short and long-term cash flow demands and comply with the statu-tory requirements of the Local Government Act.

Xeni Gwet’in Chief Roger William will re-ceive an honorary Doc-torate of Laws from the University of Northern British Columbia in May.

William said he didn’t ever imagine receiving an honor-ary degree but the fact UNBC is turning 25 and that’s the number of years the William Aboriginal Rights and Title Case took to be resolved, makes it an awesome coincidence.

“It’s such an hon-our,” William said of the degree Friday. “UNBC opened its doors 25 years ago and we started our fight 25 years ago.”

William said he learned of the honor-ary degree in January after professor Titi Kunkel who teaches at UNBC’s Quesnel cam-pus nominated him.

“She called me in Oc-tober 2014 and asked if she could nominate me,” William recalled.

Describing him as a walking encyclopedia,

Kunkel told the Tribune William has a wealth of Indigenous knowledge about the Tsilhqot’in land, people, culture, history, and way of life.

“Through his way of life, he acquired knowl-edge,” she said. “He spent endless hours with elders and com-munity members who validated his knowl-edge. Not to mention the hours he spent giv-ing his testimony and answering questions during the William case.”

Because of the trial and its historic out-

come, there is now written documentation about the Tsilhqot’in way of life, and that is a significant contribution to Indigenous knowl-edge, she added.

“Roger travels all over the place to share his knowledge and is truly a role model for other Indigenous peo-ple,” Kunkel said. “He deserves western or academic recognition for his contribution to knowledge and that is what this honorary de-gree is about.”

When William ac-cepts his degree during

the College of Arts, So-cial and Health Scienc-es ceremony on May 29 at the UNBC campus in Prince George, he said he will be thinking of many people.

“My wife Shan Stump-William and my children have all sup-ported me and many times over the commu-nity has elected me on council and as chief,” he said.

The Supreme Court of Canada case could never have been won without the support of the Tsilhqot’in leaders, he added.

During the court case 26 elders testified and today ten of them are no longer living.

“So many people made sacrifices,” Wil-liam said. “And long ago many elders told me the case would have to go all the way to the Supreme Court. They were right.”

William listed the Chilcotin War of 1864, the small pox epidemic of 1862’s decimation of 80 to 90 per cent of his people, reservations and residential schools as other hurdles his

elders and ancestors faced.

“I will be thinking of all of those things when I accept my degree,” he said.

“Chief William has been a lifelong advo-cate for the preserva-tion of the traditional Tsilhqot’in way of life,” UNBC noted in a press release about his honorary degree. “He has also been an active board member with the Cariboo Chilcotin Aboriginal Training and Education Council since 1990 and served on the RCMP E Divi-sion Commanding Of-ficer’s Aboriginal Ad-visory Committee from 1990 to 2003.”

Since 2011, William has represented the West Chilcotin elec-toral area on the Cari-boo Regional District Board of Directors.

Cariboo Festival begins with stringsThe Cariboo Festi-

val 2015 begins Mon-day, April 6 with the strings and instru-mental section that will be adjudicated by Cvetozar Vutev at St. Peter’s Anglican Church.

Born in Pleven, Bul-garia, Vutev complet-ed his bachelor’s de-gree in music in 1983 at the State School of the Arts in Pleven with a concentration in violin.

In 1990 he went on to earn a mas-ter’s degree in violin performance at Pan-cho Vladigerov State Academy of Music in Sofia, Bulgaria. He also attended violin master classes under

famous violinists such as Yfrah Neaman (UK) and Wolfgang Marschner (Germa-ny).

Vutev now has more

than 25 years of expe-rience in violin teach-ing and performing. He has performed in numerous solo, chamber, symphony and opera perfor-mances in Germany, Italy, France, Spain, Austria, Holland, Denmark, Switzer-land, Greece, Serbia, Macedonia, Bulgaria, as well as in the Rep. of Korea, Japan and Canada. Before his move to Canada in 2005 he was a member of several orchestras.

He has served as the Concertmaster of the Kamloops Symphony since September 2005.

He teaches violin, viola, chamber music and string orchestra

with the Kamloops Symphony Music School.

Cvetozar has served as an instructor in strings, chamber mu-sic and symphony orchestra with the Kamloops Interior Summer School of Music since 2010.

His credits go on to include first vio-lin player with the Okanagan Symphony and a concertmaster of the Opera Kelowna Orchestra as well per-forming with several other B.C. orchestras.

From 2005 until 2012 Cvetozar per-formed with several other orchestras in B.C. and teaching master classes in vio-

lin.Currently he lives

and enjoys the coun-try life style in Kam-loops together with his wife, Antoaneta and his two boys, Christo and Ivan.

In 2014 Cvetozar, Christo and Ivan re-leased their first CD with bluegrass and country fiddle music.

The public is invited to come out and listen to the various sections of the festival.

Speech Arts runs April 9-10 at Calvary Church; Vocal and Choral April 13-15 at the Lutheran Church; pianoApril 16-17 at Calvary Church; and band April 20 at vari-ous schools.

Safety Meeting concerts a big hit in the lakecity

The Safety Meetings concert series at the Central Cariboo Arts Centre is a big hit.

“So far we’ve had ex-cellent luck, selling out every night, including the second night that was added to Pharis and Jason Romero’s performance this past Saturday,” says event organizer Brandon Hoffman.

“The second night in particular of P and J’s show was incredible.

Lauren and the Yahoos opened the night with a fresh indie folk sound. I can’t believe that they’re still in high school; their harmonies sound fan-tastic. You could hear a pin drop throughout Pharis and Jason’s per-formance.” 

Coming up in a spe-cial show Wednesday, April 15 he says they have been lucky to score Shred Kelly.

“These guys are

great; super high ener-gy, and a really unique sound blending folk rock with synthesizers,” Hoffman says. “This one is going to be a foot stomper.” Opening the night will be Jordan Holmes spinning some tunes. Tickets are avail-

able at Red Shreds, and it’s suggested $20 for this one. In the same week, Hoffman says Colin Easthope and Tanya Gallagher will be in concert on Saturday, April 18.

“I should emphasize that we’re really grate-

ful for the folks who choose to pay more than the suggested price,” Hoffman says.

“Especially when bands are driving to town for the perfor-mance — it’s nice to be able to put some fuel in their tank.” 

Page 13: Williams Lake Tribune, April 01, 2015

The McLeese Lake Volunteer Fire Department is thrilled with a generous donation from the West Fraser Truckers Association which has allowed the department to purchase the two trucks they have had on lease.

The truckers recently donated $5,000 which allowed the depart-ment to purchase the two fire trucks that were previously on loan to the department, explains Ian Hicks, one of the depart-ment’s captains.

He has a big, enthusiastic smile on his face as he explains how overwhelmed with gratitude the department is to the truckers.

“We still have difficulty compre-hending it all,” Hicks says.

Without the donation from the truckers, Hicks says it would have taken a very long time for the so-ciety to raise the money needed to purchase the fire trucks through their usual burger roasts, garage sales, flower sales, and their pri-mary fundraiser, the bottle and can bin at the general store.

Hicks says these fundraising efforts can generate more than $500 per month and the depart-ment is grateful to the residents of McLeese Lake for their continu-ous support. Last year he says the members were amazed by people’s generosity.

“Some patrons game us $50 for just one burger,” Hicks says. “They said it’s for a good cause — keep the change!”

Ongoing fundraising helps to pay for costs such as truck and li-ability insurance, gas and repairs.

Formed two and a half years ago the McLeese Lake Fire De-partment now has about 12 mem-bers who have all had basic train-ing, Hicks explains.

Sheer determination has brought this crew together, he

says. Their main goal is to be pres-ent for the community — their community. The members can run the trucks, pump water, fight fire, stay safe and most importantly keep the fire from spreading, Hicks explains.

In 2014 he says the department

attended three fires, one near the railway tracks, one up on the power line and a truck fire on the highway.

As we continue to talk, Hicks can’t help but reiterate his appre-ciation to the truckers. He wants them to know the gratitude from

everyone in McLeese Lake can’t be expressed enough.

He also expresses his thanks to the community for their sup-port and encourages all residents to come out and support the fire department’s fundraising events in 2015.

Making Peace registration deadline coming upThe April 10 deadline is fast ap-

proaching to register for the sec-ond Women’s Spirituality Circle Gathering titled Making Peace coming up April 17 and 18 in the lakecity.

With 30 workshops and a focus on creating peace within, and in the world around us, this second annual event promises even more dynamic than last year’s gathering.

As the Canadian govern-ment lays the ground work to send bombing raids and perhaps ground troops into Syria the first workshop on the agenda is aptly titled Making Peace in a Time of

War and will be led by Muslim Shabnam Shayla, Christian Rev. Kris Dobyns, and Buddhist Ku-sum Wijesekera. Making Peace in a Time of War sharing circles will also be part of the conference.

Workshops will also discuss in making peace workshops offered on forgiveness, women and for-giveness, peace through forgive-ness, making peace with the dark-ness and many more. Workshop leaders come from a wide variety of backgrounds and disciplines

Williams LakeBENEFITS OF

HAVING SOMEONETO EXERCISE WITH!Most people that stay with an

exercise program start out with a friend or a support group. Whether it is a group of people or just one person, the rewards always outweigh the dif� culties.Some of the bene� ts these regulars

� tness fanatics have discovered are: it is more motivating to exercise with a partner, knowing that someone is relying on you to show up it a great incentive, inspiring each other in personal � tness goals, quality time spent with a friend and someone to talk to which makes the workout go by fast. Good exercise buddies usually

have the same � tness interests and are at the same level. Dogs can also make great buddies as they will go regardless of the weather.

Planting seeds of peace in a climate of war

We live in a beauti-ful world. Here in the Cariboo, spring has ar-rived. The robins have returned, the leaves are budding on the trees, and the tulips and garlic are eight inches high.

However, alongside the beauty of the world comes also the pain of the world.

It is a delicate bal-ancing act to both ap-preciate the beauty and to remain present and compassionate in the midst of the pain and struggles.

The struggles are be-coming more apparent.

With the extension and expansion of the Canadian military mis-sion against ISIS in the Middle East and the introduction and fast-tracking of Bill C51 through parliament, the culture of fear is on the rise.

Once fear takes hold, it starts to spread: fear of the future, fear of change, fear of “the other.”

Even here in Wil-liams Lake, far from Parliament Hill, far from the hustle and bustle of a cosmopoli-tan metropolis, even here there is fear.

It is this climate of fear that is challenged and changed by the

women involved with the Women’s Spiritual-ity Circle (WSC).

The Women’s Spiri-tuality Circle, a pro-gram of the Cana-dian Mental Health Association Cariboo Chilcotin Branch, is comprised of women throughout the Cari-boo who hail from many different reli-gious and spiritual traditions: — Baha’i, Buddhist, Christian, First Nations, Messi-anic Jewish, Muslim, Sikh, and Yogic — as well as many women whose spiritual lives and beliefs are less-de-fined.

For the past year and a half, the WSC has been meeting to plan inter-faith bridging events and to increase opportunities for wom-en of diverse spiritual traditions to meet and grow in relationship.

Each month, we at-

tend at least one cere-mony or spiritual event celebrated by one of the faith groups or spir-itual leaders in the area. We’ve gone to Sikh celebrations, experi-enced connection with horses and in nature, walked the labyrinth at the United Church, paraded with lanterns on Winter Solstice, and joined with the Bud-dhist community for the Dalai Lama’s birth-day celebration.

We in the Women’s Spirituality Circle are choosing not to live in fear. We are choos-ing to experience the excitement of learning and the joy of building relationships with our neighbours.

On April 17 and 18, the WSC is hosting our second annual gather-ing in Williams Lake. The theme is Making Peace. Women have a long and strong tradi-

tion as peace-makers. In historical con-

flicts, in nurturing and raising families, in the women’s and environ-mental movements, women have stood up to injustice, calmed ruffled feathers, kissed tears from skinned knees, and invoked their strong spirits in an effort to bring peace to our world and to their own lives.

We extend an invita-tion to all women to join us for “Making Peace.”

We will share sto-

ries and experiences regarding spiritual practices that promote peace, women’s roles in peace-making efforts, forgiveness, compas-sion, peace during dark times, and peace and environmental sustain-ability.

Creative workshops will enliven your spirit.

The gathering is open to all women – those who have a strong faith in an organized reli-gion, those who would call themselves “spiri-tual, but not religious,” those who are seeking, and those who have no spiritual path at all.

In the current cli-mate of fear and un-certainty, we aim to support and inspire women with rich con-versations, nourishing food, a good dose of laughter, and strong connections.

Tickets can be pur-chased at CMHA, Smashin’ Smoothies, and Dollar Dollar and are only available until April 10.

The Safety Meeting concert series held at the Central Cariboo Arts Centre continues to be a great addition to the cultural scene in Williams Lake.

On Friday and Saturday, local acts The Harry Tudors and Pharis and Ja-son Romero offered a night of fantastic mu-sic to an appreciative sold-out crowd.

The Harry Tudors, made up of Lauren Neufeld, Harry Tudor, Jin and Kevin Yang all attend Lake City Sec-ondary and have been playing together since September.

They interchange playing various instru-ments and take turns being the lead singers.

“We’ve played at school and at the Me-dieval Fair, but this is our first official gig,” Jin smiled as he wiped his brow after they’d come off the stage.

As the young musi-cians gathered their collective breath and compared notes on how the songs had went, many people came up to congratu-late them.

None of the songs were original, how-ever, the guys —  all in Grade 11 or 12 — have selected some great tunes that serve their abilities well to offer a nice blend of harmonies.

Judging from the choices, they’ve been researching the sounds and type of music they like, because they pulled it off beauti-fully.

The Romeros, fresh

off touring in the UK, followed by a stint with CBC’s Vinyl Cafe, launched their newest CD A Wander-er I’ll Stay.

Several times Pha-ris paused to say how good it felt to be home.

“I have so much love right now for so many in this room I feel like I’m going to burst,” she said.

Pharis is a great sto-ry teller and generous with telling the audi-

ence about the things that inspire her songs.

The couple have a toddler and Pharis said she’s had to figure out how to write songs in her head while breastfeeding because there will be a time lag before she can grab a pen and paper to write them down.

When Jason grabbed the wrong banjo, and stopped to switch it, Pharis smiled.

“It’s so cool,” she told the audience. “We will be writing a new song and Jason will say he doesn’t have the right sounding banjo for that song. Then two weeks later he’ll come back from his shop with a new ban-jo he’s made with the right sound.”

As Jason led into singing Goodbye Old Paint, a track on the newest CD, the hair on the top of my head started to stand on its end.

At that very mo-

ment, concert series organizer Brandon Hoffman leaned to-ward me.

“He nails such high notes,” he whispered, to which I nodded a yes.

The Romeros, de-spite possessing so much talent, are very gracious.

When they received a standing ovation and a request for an encore, the two held hands and smiled.

Then stepping aside from the microphones, they sang a gorgeous song that originated from some funeral singers in the U.S.

Again, the chills were running up my spine. If anyone’s into Easter gifts, A Wan-derer I’ll Stay, would be a perfect choice.

Rave reviews for Romeros and Harry Tudor

Please note that for this article, I have bor-rowed extensively from Irene Stangoe’s writings.

One of the earli-est, and one of the most famous hotels in Williams Lake was the Log Cabin Hotel, later renamed the Ranch.

It was located on the corner of Oliver Street and Mackenzie Avenue, where Oliver’s Bar and Grill is found today.

Tow partners, Bill Smith and Archie Campbell, began its con-struction in the late sum-mer of 1919 with l o g s that were cut and skidded down from what is now the Poplar Glade area of town.

When the building was completed, it had 13 rooms for guests as well as a large lobby and dining room.

Rates were quite pric-ey for that time — 50 cents each for a meal and a bed.

There was no liquor sold there at first, since Smith did not believe spirits should be sold in first class hotels.

The place did quite well financially and, along with the PGE Station House, it was a major centre of activity for the young settlement.

Smith and Campbell kept making improve-ments to attract custom-ers, and one of those improvements was the installation of the town’s first bathtub. It was a large porcelain tub, locat-ed in a special room on the second floor.

It had only one tap, which provided plenty of cold water — in the winter months it was ice cold.

If you wanted to have a hot bath, water had to be dipped into buckets from the cistern behind the large stove in the hotel lobby and carried upstairs by hand.

Not only was this a lot of extra work, but you were charged an addi-tional 50 cents for the hot water.

In July of 1921 a fire, which began in the rooms above the big Fraser and Mackenzie general store down the street, devas-tated the whole block.

The Lakeview Hotel, a meat market, the gen-eral store and the dance

hall next door were all destroyed.

It appeared the Log Cabin Hotel would also go up in flames, but most of the townspeople turned out to fight the blaze.

They helped to save what they could, spread-ing wet blankets on the hotel roof, setting up a bucket brigade from the PGE water tower across the street and attempt-ing to rescue anything of value from inside the hotel.

That included the bathtub.

In their haste, the

volunteers ripped it out from its upstairs room, but severely damaged the walls and the balustrades as they tried to navigate it down the narrow stair-way. It got stuck on the stairs for a while, but more people showed up to ‘help’ and it was finally dragged outside where it was placed in the street along with beds, furni-ture, bedding and other items.

The owner, Bill Smith, who watched all this happen, became visibly upset, complaining about the rough treatment given to his prized bath-

tub and his other belong-ings, and bemoaning the fact that the plumbing connections had all been ruined and would have to be replaced at great cost.

Apparently, after the fire had been put out, the tub sat on the street out front of the hotel for several weeks.

Some jokester put a sign on it which read: “Baths — 50 cents.”

The townspeople also tried to save the dishes from the hotel’s dining room.

Ranch Hotel meets demise in Boxing Day blaze

These were piled on the large home-made trestle tables, but they proved to be too big to fit through the doors.

In the confusion of the fire, the tables were tipped sideways to get them out and much of the china was smashed.

It is said that Smith, seeing this destruction, picked up his suitcase in dis-gust and walked up the street.

After going about half a block, he put the suitcase down, sat on it, and watched, “hoping that the whole building would burn down.”

It didn’t, largely because of the efforts and dedication of the townsfolk, and the hotel was scorched but saved.

It was noted,

though, that Smith did not express his thanks to any of the citizens who had helped.

After the fire and the damage to the building was repaired, it continued to do a booming business.

Even though Smith did not approve of the sale of liquor, the partners were in busi-ness to make money, and not having a licensed establishment put them at a disad-vantage.

Thus it was that the hotel lobby was finally renovated to include a beer parlour.

Smith never did adjust very well to the idea of liquor sales, and sometimes he would get so angry at the behaviour of the patrons that he would throw everyone out and lock up the beer parlour, then dis-appear until he cooled down.

In 1925 Smith

bought out his part-ner and he continued to run the place until 1931.

It was a frontier pub, and the combi-nation of liquor and the wild west made for some interesting situations.

One time a cus-tomer came in to find the big barrel heater in the lobby crumpled up on the floor.

When he asked what had happened, Smith disgustedly explained that “some cowboys were riding it.”

It remained in its collapsed state for quite a while until Smith got around to putting some money into repairing it.

After 1931 the hotel went through a number of owners.

In 1937 it saw another major fire, necessitating another extensive renovation.

By the 1950s it had changed its named

to the Ranch Hotel, and it was the scene of some of the wild-er side of the town’s night life.

In 1965 the origi-nal logs of the Log Cabin Hotel, which were deteriorated badly after 45 years, were all removed and replaced with a wood frame construction.

The hotel contin-ued to operate until it was levelled by a spec-tacular fire on Boxing Day in 1996.

The weather was frigid, and the volun-teer fire department had a real challenge to get the fire under control and prevent it from spreading.

By the time it was out, the whole area was encased in ice.

So ended the colourful life of one of our city’s most well-known structures.

VETERANS RIDE

Greg Sabatino photoThe Communities for Veterans Foundation Ride Across Canada kicked off in Williams Lake Sunday with a small parade as local veterans, led by Roy Mulvahill and his team of horses, rode to the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 139 from the Stampede Grounds. At the Legion there was a silent auction, hamburger dinner and music. The official ride will begin in Victoria on April 13 and is anticipated to take 200 days to complete.

Retired water biolo-gist Kris Andrews is never bored.

There isn’t any time to be bored when you have developed pas-sions for photography, printmaking, pottery, gardening, and birding to name just a few of her pursuits.

Andrews is a regular visitor to Scout Island with her camera and tripod quietly and patiently working to capture images of birds as they return each spring.

Unfortunately these days she is watching bald eagles feeding on the small coots that have taken refuge in the marsh. 

The swans have come and gone to lakes further afield, but mal-lards and geese are already busy nesting.

She can hardly wait for the beautiful wood ducks to arrive. 

She says friends at the south end of the lake have already spot-ted a loon and a wood

duck so these birds should be arriving at Scout Island soon.

Andrews spotted a butterfly three weeks ago and Tuesday bees were buzzing around the fully formed prim-roses and the miniature orange tulips budding forth in her garden.

As spring unfolds dozens of other bird species will be arriv-ing in the region and Andrews will be there to document their arrival.

One of the birds Andrews is monitor-ing in the Chilcotin Junction Important Bird Area along the banks of the Fraser and

Chilcotin Rivers is the flammulated owl that arrives in late May.

The Williams Lake

area is the farthest northern nesting area for this tiny owl that makes its home in the cavities of trees made by woodpeckers.

“I don’t have any photos of flammu-lated owls,” Andrews says. “Just a dream that someday I might get to see one in daylight and photograph it. We listen for them at night is how we monitor.”

She did see one fly from one tree to anoth-er against a dark eve-ning sky once, but says that was it.

Andrews was the naturalist’s caretaker for the Chilcotin Junction Important Bird Area

for about seven years but recently turned the job over to Cathy Koot.

Andrews also has a route of bluebird nesting boxes in the Chilcotin which she cleans each spring as do other naturalists in the club. 

She is also helping with a project to moni-tor the activities of golden eagles.

You might also find Andrews jogging along the trails at Scout Island or pulling nox-ious weeds in the area of the nature centre which butts up against human habitation.

Getting out in nature on hiking and birding trips with the field naturalists is also a great way to keep fit and see the region, she finds.

“I’m madly off in all directions,” says Andrews, whose art in printmaking is inspired by nature. “I’m never bored, that’s for sure, but housekeeping is not one of my madly off in all directions pas-sions.”

Bird lovers are encouraged to help protect bird popula-tions and prevent the

spread of infectious diseases through the regular cleaning of birdfeeders and bird-

baths.During spring,

many small migratory songbirds are return-

ing home from winter retreats to the south. Species such as pine siskins, redpolls and grosbeaks are com-monly found in large flocks at this time of year. This can result in high-density con-gregations of birds around birdfeeders and water sources such as birdbaths.

While this is a won-derful opportunity for birders, the increased density of the birds as well as the stress of weather and nutrition challenges can lead to the spread of serious and even fatal diseases among the birds, such as avian conjunctivitis, avian pox virus and salmonella bacterium.

Some diseases not only threaten local bird populations, but can spread to pets and people handling infected birds or con-taminated materials.

The most impor-tant thing people can do is to clean their birdfeeders and bird-

baths regularly. This should include replac-ing birdbath water every few days, and scrubbing and clean-ing feeders and bird-baths as well as the area around them at least every couple of weeks. Other things bird lovers can do to help include:

• Spreading out multiple feeders to discourage crowding. Use smaller feeders that allow only one or two birds at a time, and that are made of plastic or metal, rather than wood.

• Keep the area under the feeders clean. • If you see one or two diseased birds in your area, take your feeder down immedi-ately and clean it.

• If you have more than three diseased birds in your area, encourage the birds to disperse for a while. Take your feeders down for a week or two, clean them well, and re-hang them.

Quilt raffle coming up at Seniors Centre

Friday, March 21, was officially the first day of spring; but in the Maritimes they're still having winter.

Here at the Seniors Activity Centre we are trying to have all the functions done and over with in March and April so that the volunteers will be free to start their gardens.

The Shamrock Luncheon and Bake Sale was a great success, thanks to all the donors and volunteers.

The next event will be the Old Age Pensioners Association Pancake Breakfast on Saturday, April 11, from 8:30 to 11 a.m.

At 10 a.m. we will have the raffle draw.

If you haven't pur-chased a ticket you can still buy one on that day

and have a chance to win the quilt, the wall hanging or the duffle bag on wheels.

The lovely quilt is donated by the Senior Stitchers.

This group of ladies meet every Tuesday at the Seniors Activity Centre and quilt from 12:30 to 2:30 p.m.

If you like to quilt you are welcome to come and join them.

The Senior Stitchers

was started by Jean Andersen and they have been donating their quilts to the OAPO to raffle off twice a year.

Monies from the raffles go towards any items the centre might require and towards two local bursaries. One to a high school student and one to a graduate from the local Thompson Rivers University.

The OAPO also sup-port the BC Seniors

Games.The BC Seniors

Game organizers will have a fundraising din-ner on April 12 at the Seniors Activity Centre. They raise money to help defer part of the

cost of those participat-ing in the Games.

You can get more information on the Games, the dinner, etc. from the manager Glenda Winger at the Seniors Activity Centre.

Food your body needsAdults over 55 can

feel better immediately and stay healthy for the future by choosing healthy foods.

Fruit: Focus on whole fruits rather than juices for more fibre and vita-mins and aim for one and a half to two servings or more each day.

Veggies: Colour is your credo in this catego-ry. Choose antioxidant-rich dark, leafy greens, such as kale, spinach, and broccoli as well as orange and yellow vegetables, such as carrots, squash, and yams.

C a l c i u m : Maintaining bone health as you age depends on

adequate calcium intake to prevent osteoporo-sis and bone fractures. Older adults need 1,200 mg of calcium a day.

Grains: Be smart with your carbs and choose whole grains over pro-cessed white flour for more nutrients and more fibre. If you’re not sure, look for pasta, breads, and cereals that list “whole” in the ingredi-ent list.

Protein: As you age, eating sufficient high-quality protein can improve your mood, boost your resistance to stress, anxiety, and depression, and even help you think clearly.

Shogun martial artists score medal haul at provs

Close to 50 martial art-ists from Williams Lake and Smithers converged in Boi-tanio Mall March 21 for the World Karate and Kickbox-ing Commission Provincial Championships.

Held inside the previous location of Sport Mart, Shogun Martial Arts Acad-emy students competed in kata, team kata, creative weapons, point fighting, team point fighting and continuous sparring for a chance to represent Team BC at the WKC national championships coming up May 15-18 in Ottawa, Ont.

Williams Lake Shogun Martial Arts Academy Sensei Lee-Ann Lainch-bury noted the dojo earned 28 medals in total spread among 12 athletes through numerous events.

“We are as proud as ever of our students and how

well they did,” Lee-Ann said. “Not only did they place well, but they were good sports. Even our first-time students displayed a wonderful competitive spir-it.”

As busy as Lee-Ann and WLSMAA Sensei Sheldon Lainchbury were helping organize and run the tour-nament, Lee-Ann said it was also nice to see students encouraging and supporting each other.

All local students quali-fied for nationals. The re-sults from the WKC Provin-cials are as follows:

Gabrielle Nustad — silver in kata

Regan Miciuk — gold in kata, silver in continuous sparring and bronze in point fighting

Raiden Lainchbury — gold in point fighting and bronze in continuous spar-ring

Adanna Nustad — bronze in kata

Macy Lainchbury — gold in point fighting and silver in kata

Isaac Lauren — gold in point fighting, gold in con-tinuous sparring and silver in kata

Emma Grondines — gold in kata

Liam Lauren — bronze in point fighting

Jeremy Munroe — gold in point fighting, silver in cre-ative weapons and bronze in kata

Jaxon Skuratow — gold in point fighting and bronze in creative weapons

Kai Richardson — gold in kata and silver in point fighting

Micheal Heitmann — sil-ver in point fighting and sil-ver in continuous sparring

Team Events:Jaxon Skuratow, Isaac

Lauren and Liam Lauren — gold in team point fighting

Macy Lainchbury and Isaac Lauren — bronze in team kata.

Ellen Wiege is re-minding area seniors to consider competing or volunteering for the upcoming 2015 B.C. Seniors Games.

Wiege is the Wil-liams Lake Senior Games’ co-ordinator and has been a multi-medal winner and com-petitor in floor curling for the past 22 years.

“It’s a good way to get out and get your ex-ercise and have a visit,” Wiege said of why she loves the games.

Set to take place Aug. 25-29 in North Vancouver this year, the mission of the

Games is to improve the health, lifestyle and image of the province’s 55-plus population.

Wiegle said seniors can compete in every-thing from bocce, cy-cling and pickleball to table tennis, archery, bridge, crib and five pin bowling.

She said being a competitor is a great way to stay both men-tally and physically fit as well as make friends.

“We always seem to be competing against the same people so you get to know each other. It’s like one big family down there.”

And if competing isn’t your thing, Wiege said volunteers are needed to help with fundraising efforts and also organizing, as Wiege hopes to step away from being the co-ordinator after 20 years of volunteering.

“I’m been organiz-ing for years. It’s time for me have a little rest

so I’d like for some-one to step up as co-ordinator,” Wiege said. “Anyone interested in knowing more about it can contact me.”

The next local fund-raising event scheduled for the games is a pork roast dinner April 12 at the Seniors Activity Centre.

Tickets are available at the Seniors Activ-ity Centre and are $15 each. No tickets will be sold at the door.

Funds raised will help offset the costs of traveling to the games for the competitors.

For more informa-tion, contact Ellen Wiege at 250-392-3537.

Greg Sabatino photosWilliams Lake RCMP Sgt. Mike Hacker (back, centre) jokingly apprehends Horsepower Hooligan car club members Renee Albinati (from left), Jay McKeown and Norm Prest along South Lakeside Drive to learn how much fun the upcoming Cariboo GM Fourth Annual Soap Box Derby is going to be.

Soap box racing not for foolsCheers and speed

gave way to sirens and screams when the Wil-liams Lake RCMP broke up a hazard-ous street race Sunday morning.

Garage-built hot rods, assembled with love and passion, were pitted against one an-other in a competition of speed in the most dangerous of venues on

South Lakeside Drive.At the scene, Horse-

power Hooligans car club member Kyle Gies-brecht pleaded his case to police following the mock bust.

“This is truly the most affordable way to race,” Giesbrecht joked to the RCMP. “These cars are built by the little guy, the home hot rod-der, the young guys who

can’t afford to go out and race NASCAR or haul a car to the nearest track to drag race.”

The event, however, was not without inci-dent.

Williams Lake RCMP Sgt. Mike Hacker told the Tribunethese hooligans are mis-guided.

“Racing on the street is unsafe, at any speed,”

Hacker said.“There is a time and

place for these types of shenanigans.”

If you are interested in racing your cre-ation, the Fourth An-

nual Soap Box Derby is coming up on June 19 at Cariboo GM.

Everyone is invited for some family fun and, of course, some racing.

Renee Albinati yells at John-Paul Albinati after his soap box car met face-to-face with a Cadillac. Cariboo GM’s Fourth Annual Soap Box Derby is coming up June 19 at the local dealership on Mackenzie Avenue.

This is in addition to the newly announced provincial government program detailed in our main story today. The LEAF will be on display at the SCRAP-IT booth throughout this weekend at the Vancouver International Auto Show, in the Vancouver Convention

Centre West. Qualifying electric vehicles for the organization’s incentive are listed on the SCRAP-IT.ca website. Take a look because some of them, plus vehicles qualifying under the additional government program will be at the show to view and some made available there for test drives outside.

Clean energy cars now more affordableThe long awaited rebate incen-tives designed to encourage British Columbians to buy clean energy cars were announced this week at the Vancouver Interna-tional Auto Show.Minister of Energy and Mines Bill Bennett announced a scheme to offer incentives of up to $5,000 for the purchase or lease of a new battery electric or plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, and up to $6,000 for a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle, When combined with new SCRAP-IT program incentives revealed here last week, the total savings could be up to $8,250 for an electric vehicle. The incentives are expected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by the equivalent of taking 1,400 cars off the road and are part of Phase 2 of the Clean Energy Vehicle (CEV) program. The program will distribute $10.6 million from the Province’s Innovative Clean Energy Fund over the next three years for the following purposes:

◼ $7.5 million for point-of-sale incentives for electric and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.◼ $1.59 million for investments in charging infrastructure and hydrogen fuelling infrastructure.◼ $1 million for incentives for commercial

fleet purchases of clean energy vehicles.◼ $500,000 for research, training, and public outreach on clean energy transportation technology.

Today, electric vehicles typically cost about 25 per cent more than non-electric vehicles, but the incentives will narrow that price gap. Electric vehicle owners typically save about 75 per cent on their fuel costs, which adds up to $1,600 per year. An analysis will be conducted to identify gaps in the location of

charging infrastructure and determine the most effective way to deploy infrastructure funding. This will include looking at what locations (multi-unit residential buildings, downtown parking areas, shopping centres etc.) would best support increased adoption of electric vehicles.The first phase of the CEV program ran from 2011 to 2014 and helped support the purchase of 950 electric vehicles and the development of over 1,000 charging stations, and resulted in 57,000 tonnes of direct emissions reductions – equivalent to taking approximately 1,000 vehicles off the road.

The Ministry of Energy and Mines will administer and implement the CEV program through partnerships with the New Car Dealers Association of British Columbia, the Fraser Basin Council, and the Canadian Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Association. Quote: Blair Qualey, president and CEO of the

New Car Dealers Association of B.C. is delighted with the announcement. “Our members are seeing increasing interest from consumers in purchas-ing electric vehicles and this program will provide many with the incentive

they need to make a purchase.”Visitors to the Vancouver International Auto Show, which closes on Sunday, will have the opportunity to take a clean energy vehicle for a spin. Most manufacturers are also showing their clean energy vehicles inside the Vancouver Trade & Convention Centre West.
