Coast Discovery Inn to re-openafter labour dispute resolvedNEIL CAMERON COURIER-ISLANDER
Campbell River’s Coast Dis-covery Inn will re-open Monday May 12.
Campbell River’s downtown hotel closed its doors March 7 after a labour dispute.
General Manager/Owner Sukhy Bains confirmed Thurs-day that all 35 employees would be coming back with the same pay scale, wages and benefits.
Bains also confirmed the hotel would re-open its restaurant on June 1. He said the hotel would be undergoing many renova-tions in preparation for the upcoming season.
Bains, whose hotel has helped many local charities, including the Rod Brind’Amour Cystic Fibrosis Golf Tournament and was the weekly meeting venue for the Noon Rotary Club of Campbell River, said it has been a difficult time but the future looks bright.
“I want to thank our commun-ity, our guests and our clients for your patience during our recent closure,” he said. “Your support over the years has meant so much to me and to
the entire team at the hotel,” he said. “We hope to welcome you back and show you how import-ant your business is to us. We
are excited about the future, which will include renovations of our guest rooms beginning later this year, and a new restau-
rant offering. We look forward to sharing news with you as we move forward.”
The Coast Hotel will re-open Monday and renovated guest rooms and a restaurant are coming soon. (Photo by Neil Cameron)

TimberWest bootingcampers, anglers out
NEIL CAMERON COURIER-ISLANDER
TimberWest has posted no trespassing notices on Vancouver Island locations long-used as recreational sites by residents and tour-ists alike.
TimberWest owns large swaths of land from Sooke to Gold River on the Island and recently posted signs at sites and on logging roads warning people to stay out or face the consequences.
Sue Handel, Manager of Communications for TimberWest, said the com-pany posted the signs and notices on its land, not on recreational sites.
“TimberWest has posted ‘no-camping’ signs in loca-tions on its private forest lands that aren’t, and never were, officially desig-nated for recreational use,” she wrote in response to a Courier-Islander inquiry.
“We do however recog-nize there is a demand for camping in the area and, starting this summer, have formally designated a supervised 10-site camp-ground at Willington Point on Upper Quinsam Lake. Reservation information is available at www.timber-west.com. There is a 14-
night maximum stay.”On its website the com-
pany gives further reasons for the signage.
“As a private land owner it is in TimberWest’s inter-est to manage access to its lands. TimberWest man-ages access to its private managed forest lands for a number of reasons includ-ing concern for public safe-ty, protection of assets, to mitigate liability, to reduce the risk of vandalism, and to mitigate the risk of wildfire.
TimberWest says it pays
over half a million dollars each year in fire suppres-sion costs
The company also says that every two-to-three years, large wildfires on TimberWest lands cost over a million dollars to put out; fires it says are person-caused (prevent-able) and not related to TimberWest operations
They also say that van-dalism to TimberWest gates, seedlings, and roads is a regular occurrence.
The company says access to their land is managed using signage, gates, deactivation of inactive roads and in some instan-ces, formal land use agree-ments with parties who meet TimberWest’s terms and conditions.
They also said areas of restricted access change geographically and season-ally in light of factors such as harvesting operations and hot, dry weather conditions.
The company says access restrictions remain neces-sary for certain portions of TimberWest’s private lands, however designated areas of TimberWest land may be open to public [email protected]

SIAN THOMSON COURIER-ISLANDER
He’s not a doctor, a patient, a tree climber or even an angel, but he plays them on TV.
Carihi Secondary grad Mal-colm Masters is well on his way to living his dream and making it to Hollywood.
Born and raised in Camp-bell River, Masters set his sights on drama when he was at Pinecrest Elementary, and then at Robron Middle School.
“I think the last time I was in here,” he said of the Cour-ier-Islander, was when I was delivering the paper.”
Masters moved to Vancou-ver after he graduated in 2007.
After three years at Capi-lano College, where the drama students do four major performances each year, he was “discovered” by a local agent while playing John Procter, the tragic hero in The Crucible.
From there Masters was
cast in several episodes of “Untold Stories in the ER” where he has played a doctor, a patient, a paramedic and was cast in one infamous
role in the spin-off series “Sex brought me to the ER” where he incurred an injury after making love with his girlfriend in a tree. Masters
said the special effects are very lifelike and it is easy to feel ill when you are looking at bulging eyeballs and blood flowing everywhere.
He continues to audition for parts on the series that is shot at the old Riverview Hospital in Port Coquitlam, and in the meantime he is busy with other ‘gigs’.
He played Heinrich von Plauen in the documentary miniseries Battle Castle and
starred in a 2012 short film called “Home for Supper.” Plus he is now cast in the TV series Supernatural.
“I am so happy I did not get killed off last season as Benjamin,” said Masters about the angel he plays in Supernatural.
He appeared in two epi-sodes of the hit show as well as the season finale. The new season started this week, with the second episode air-
ing on May 12. “My character lived so it’s promising,” he said.
Filmed in Vancouver the series follows the two broth-ers as they hunt demons, ghosts, monsters and other supernatural beings in the world. The series is produced by Warner Bros. Television and is in its 10th season, with talks of a spin off.

Hosptial Foundation gets OKfor Scrap Metal ChallengeCOURIER-ISLANDER
The Campbell River Hospital Foundation will once again be allowed to keep a scrap metal bin at the city’s Dogwood Oper-ations facility as part of their Scrap Metal Challenge.
In two years the Scrap Metal Challenge has raised $36,000 for the foundation, said CRHF Event Manager Patti Mertz at council.
Mertz also said the founda-tion expects those totals to climb with the addition of junk
cars into the donation mix.ABC recycling and Coastland
Towing and Transport are the main event sponsors.
The public is also invited to join in, dropping off their scrap metal in a bin provided by a local business or at ABC Recycling.
By donating your scrap metal, either from your home or busi-ness, you will be helping your community raise money for the Campbell River Hospital Foundation and vital health equipment.
There were smiles all around at McHappy Day at McDonald’s Wednesday.

Masters looks up to fellow Riverite actor Barry PeppersContinued from page 3
When he is not healing people, killing people, or falling out of trees in the buff, Masters likes to come home to Campbell River where his mom Lily, dad Rob and grandmother Wilma Mas-ters keep the home fires burning. His grandmother is well-known for all her years of volunteer-ing at the Campbell River Food
Bank. Masters has a sister in Victoria and three step brothers, None have caught the acting bug.
“The money is very good when you get those gigs,” said Masters. “The first things I bought with my first big cheque were a 50 inch TV and a 1961 Gibson gui-tar. But really, I am still in the peanut gallery when it comes to making the big money.”
Masters said he admires Canad-ian actors who have found suc-cess, particularly Barry Pepper who also hails from Campbell River, recently playing Rob-ert Kennedy in the Kennedy Miniseries that aired last year, and Kim Coates from Sons of Anarchy.
“I hope to be able to network with my fellow Canadian actors
at some point as my dream is, of course, to act in major motion pictures in Hollywood,” he said.
Masters is working on a web series set to come out in August called “Goons”, a comedy that follows “the typical guy who gets beaten up in a show and then you never see again.”
So far Masters is enjoying just about everything there is to
enjoy about his job.“You never know what you are
going to be doing one day to the next,” said Masters, “which is the thing I love about what I do. It’s fresh, and I get a kick out of it. What is not so great is when you are between jobs and waiting for work, but you just have to keep moving forward.”
Masters, left, in a scene from ‘Secrets of the ER.’

she said. “I ran out in my slip-pers, flailing my arms about and yelling between tears, straight through this flock to an eagle eating what looked like our cat. All the other birds scattered but the eagle stood his ground with the death grip on his half-eaten feast. Thankfully it was not our Leo but something a person had fed them just minutes before. These two eagles have been trained to come to our yards for food, not to the ocean where they should be hunting naturally.’
Mayor Walter Jakeway respond-ed to Schofield’s renewed con-cern in light of Courier-Islander coverage of recent, suspected cat killings.
“I can understand (Schofield’s) concern and frustration,” he said. “I have never seen eagles being fed by humans in Campbell River.It seems like a waste of time. We live right next to a very busy eagle tree at Rotary Beach and the birds seem to do quite well catching their own food. We also suspect that we lost our little cat “Gus” to an eagle in 2004.”
While Jakeway doesn’t disagree with trying to keep people from feeding wild birds, he said he has trouble enacting bylaws that he knows will never get enforced.
“To deceive taxpayers into thinking that local government will perform a function, knowing full well that it will never hap-pen is dishonest,” he said. “The city has trouble (long delays) enforcing public nuisance and dilapidated building laws and recently it has struggled with parking enforcement. Monitor-ing and controlling the feeding of birds could be even more awkward. The city of Campbell River does not have the capacity to enforce most bylaws in a timely manner.”
SIAN THOMSON COURIER-ISLANDER
It’s not well-fed pigeons that Lisa Schofield is worried about, it’s the eagles who are being fed by people in residential areas.
And that is not boding well for cats, people, or the birds themselves.
Schofield wants the city bylaw changed so that it is also illegal to feed the larger scavenger and predatory birds, and not just
pigeons. She has been trying to get this done since 2010.
“I would like to petition the City of Campbell River to pass a new bylaw to prevent the feeding of eagles and other wildlife within the city limits, especially in resi-dential neighbourhoods,” said Schofield in a letter to then-Mayor Charlie Cornfield back in 2010. “I have come into your offices and spoken to the bylaw officer about the current laws and there is only
one that prohibits the feeding of pigeons. If it is because of the mess that they make, please pic-ture what it is like to have hun-dreds of much larger scavenger and predatory birds defecating on our new home, yard items, and vehicles.”
Since moving into her new home in Ocean Grove, Schofield has witnessed residents feeding eagles that then come into local yards and show no fear of people.
Her nine year old Siam-ese cat, Leo, went missing on Jan. 15, 2010, and in her efforts to find him, she met neigh-bours who said they felt threatened and terrorized by two eagles in particular, and not only
for their pets but for their children as well.
“Several of them told me that they have been over to the tree where the eagle nest is and their stor-ies were all consist-ent,” said Schofield. “There are pet collars, a stuffed dog, a teddy bear and a baby’s shoe under that nest on the ground.”
Schofield said that the day after her cat went missing, she noticed a huge flock of seagulls and crows flying around her house.
“I got up to take a look what was going on and there was a feeding frenzy across from our house,”

Move for Healthat Spirit SquareCOURIER-ISLANDER
Spirit Square in Campbell River will turn into a
community gym as fit-ness instructors will be engaging in different activities all day.
Free fitness classes are going to be held starting at noon until 2 p.m., and again from 4 to 6 p.m.
“Campbell River Recreation fitness instructors will be joining up with instructors from the Strathcona Regional District to get you moving,” said Mary Fast, Fitness Supervisor.
“These activities are all part of Move for Health Day, which is an international event created in 2002 by the World Health Organ-ization to promote physical activity.
“Events will be held throughout the prov-ince and the world to
bring people together in a spirit of fun, inclusivity, and sup-port of healthy active living.”
Fast said they want to get as many people as possible out this year exercising and show how exercise and physical activity are a great way to feel better, gain health benefits and have fun.
Different fitness and activities classes will make up the day.
These classes include Circuit Train-ing, Combo TRX Bootcamp and the fun, incredibly popular Zumba.
Staff from the Sportsplex and Strath-cona Gardens will be in attendance to answer any questions you have on fitness and healthy lifestyle.
For more informa-tion on this event call the Sportsplex 250-923-7911 or the Commun-ity Centre 250-286-1161.
Seniors have earnedbetter respect than this
Re: Editorial in the Friday May 2 Courier-Islander.
I, as a over-the-hill senior, as is my wife, both read this pitiful treatment of the thou-sands of us who have worked all our lives, paid the “taxes” and paid the price that kept this country moving ahead and now we cannot even get a meeting place in Campbell River to call our own, where we can meet and congregate and socialize.
This is a sad reflection of what society thinks of us it seems.
The theme in this article as usual returns to what benefits the “businesses” of this town could reap if we seniors had a place, in town to call our own. What else is new?
The council has reluctantly agreed that we should have such a place, how big hearted of them. FINALLY.
It is damn time that Camp-bell River and any other town who has not accommodated us seniors with places to meet do so. We have earned that right.
So just maybe this news-paper can push our council and all others to get off their collective duffs and find/ build us deserving seniors a place of our own. We have earned it.

Campbell River has done it once again
Campbell River you’ve done it again. On April 30 and May 1 we asked you to show your hearts and your generosity was outstanding, helping us to raise $40,000 at the Sixth Annual Var-iety Children’s Radiothon. You have always been great cham-
pions of Variety and we cannot begin to tell you how grateful we are for your continued support.
The funds raised will stay in your community to help local families with children who have special needs — children who need mobility equipment such as adapted tricycles and wheel-chair lift systems; emergency transportation to out-of-com-munity hospitals for specialized care; van conversions to accom-
modate heavy wheelchairs; and communication devices and speech and language therapy which gives them the chance to learn and thrive.
Families tell us that Variety’s support takes away the stress that often accompanies these unexpected situations in life.

ed some pretty straightforward notices at many locations on their private managed forest lands on Vancouver Island.
‘No Trespassing’ sums it up pretty well.
The sites are of course used by various members of the general public, from families, to anglers, to recreationalists. It has been a long-held tradition that these lands have been used for camp-ing, boating and fishing. Now, however, TimberWest has had enough, it seems.
The notice that was posted at a local lake campsite was clear: “Please be advised that you are
camped on private property and considered in trespass. We request that you remove your camping units within 14 days, commencing May 1. Those in non-compliance after May 14 will be removed with no further notification.”
It is not sure how extensive these postings are, but Sue Han-del, Manager of Communica-tions for TimberWest, said the company “has posted ‘no-camp-ing’ signs in locations on its pri-vate forest lands that aren’t, and never were, officially designated for recreational use.”
That could be a lot of signs.The company can’t be blamed
in some circumstances for keep-ing the public out of some of their lands. The first concern is
safety and fire hazards. Timber-West pays over $500,000 each year in fire suppression costs. Another concern is the morons who go to the sites and leave behind mounds of garbage which the company then has to deal with.
For the most part, those using the sites are responsible families and individuals who know the first rule of camping — leave the site cleaner than how you found it.
The steps by TimberWest come at a time when the camping sea-son is just heating up. They own vast areas of land from Sooke to Gold River, that could be put-ting a severe demand on avail-able camp sites, even though in
responding to the no trespass signs, Handel said TimberWest has for the first time provided a 10-site supervised campground at Willington Point on Upper Quinsam Lake. And they’re taking reservations as of now. Generous.
These closures will have a dev-astating affect on tourism.
But the truth is that the com-pany has the right to manage access to their lands. And there’s nothing anyone can do about it, except find another camping spot if you’re lucky.
Or wait until the provincial government allows TimberWest to turn the forest lands into sub-divisions and you can buy back a piece of your Vancouver Island.

I find it necessary to let the public know that the housekeep-ing supervisor at the Campbell River Hospital is not going around the hallways swearing and yelling at her employees. If these people witnessing all these outbursts and writing the thorns in the paper are so concerned, why are they not going straight to the department manager, the site director, or security. The reason is, it is a inside job, this is a group of disgruntled house-keepers, who have concocted these stories and maybe have their buddies in the public send-ing them in. Some arrive at work armed with the thorns and roses article with photocopies to pass out, so they are definitely aware when it will be in the paper. A lot of the wording they are using is just not known to the general public, like policies, and job titles, clothing, all kinds of clothes are worn, I have seen doctors in shorts and flip-flops, even a kilt, jeans, professional people in VIHA do not have a dress code. Since they also know about the bullying and fowl language they should also know about the Respectful Workplace Policy. Most of the other employ-ees can pretty much figure out the several other housekeepers that are involved, these people should get over it and do the job they are paid to do. If they can’t
take direction from a supervisor then they do not deserve a job that pays a good wage for not needing a high education. As far as the supervisor getting a pink slip, she got hers the same day you got yours, we all did. Tired of the BS in the workplace from those who want a happy, friendly, environment. Not afraid of post-ing my name unlike the other two writers.

A camper full of thorns to TimberWest. We use a campsite or actually a clearing on a lake which has been used for about 45 years. We learned this from some of the oldtimers who go there to launch their boats, belly boats, canoes and fish for the day or weekend. The campsite is always left much better than we find it, as winter weekend parties leave litter all over the place. One year we even loaded a pick-up truck full of garbage. Anyway my point is that we were told by a TimberWest employee that they might close this site down, maybe half way through summer or at the end of sum-mer, for logging and adding more sites. Well on May 1 we arrived at the site to find what I consider a nasty notice. Nothing about logging or more sites, just ‘you’re trespassing.’ Does this arrogant company own the land or just
the timber rights? We believe that if the notice was explaining the situation better we would not be as upset as we are.
I have a suspicion that Timber-West employees will be on that site, probably by the long week-end. On the TimberWest website I found that gates and signs are up from Sooke to Gold River. Where do we go? Thanks Timber-West (NOT).

Chances are you’ll take a Mexican vacation next fall.
Chances are you’ll find yourself on a sandy beach overlooking the Gulf, slurping back a Margarita as you work on your tan. Chances are you’ll notice a pudgy guy in sun-glasses and Bermuda shorts doing the same thing in a chaise lounge next to you. Chances are that’ll be Ian Thow.
You remember him — the guy who, as an ‘investment adviser’ in Victoria, bilked at least 20 clients — senior citizens, mostly — out of their life savings — eight million
dollars that we know about — while he lived high on the hog, in a five-star condo with a private plane at his disposal, enjoying all the perks that go with having millions of other peoples’ dollars in your pocket.
Yeah, well. The Canadian Justice system caught up with Mister Thow and came down on him with both boots. He was tried, convicted and sentenced to nine years in the slam-mer back in 2010.
Less than three years later, the Parole Board of Canada has decid-ed that Mister Thow has suffered enough. The board has okayed a one week Mexican vacation for Mis-
ter Thow next October. But he’ll be watched by guards,
right? The Mexican constabulary will keep him under tabs? He’ll wear an ankle monitor at least?
Nah. That would be too...intru-sive. A spokesman for the board notes that Mister Thow ‘has made a commitment to living pro-socially’. Whatever that means. As for the possibility that after his fun in the sun, Thow might just decide to, you know, not...board the Air Canada flight back home? “The Correction-al Services and the parole officer are of the opinion that that is not a likelihood.” Ah, well. That’s alright then. Besides, it’s not as if Thow
is going to be a fish-belly white refugee from solitary confinement blinking in the Mexican sun. He’s been cruising around the streets of Vancouver unsupervised since 2012, less than two years after his con-viction. Doing what, exactly? The Parole Board ‘has no information available’ on that. Thow is small potatoes compared to Earl Jones, the Montreal ex-financial advisor who scammed $50 million from more than 1,500 clients, including friends, relatives and an 84-year-old widow named Joey Davis, who Jones took for $200,000. Jones was sentenced to 11 years in jail in 2010. He was released from prison on his
own recognizance last month — not even three years later.
Then there’s the case of Wil-liam Footman, a 55-year-old bank robber who was finally captured earlier this year. Footman was a busy thief. He hit 37 banks in New York before they finally took him down. Mind you he didn’t exactly rob the banks. He didn’t take any money at all. He swiped their front door mats. “I sell them to bodegas,” explained Footman. “Their floors get wet.”
Mister Footman is awaiting sen-tencing as I write. Betcha he does more time than Ian Thow and Earl Jones combined.

Negotiating the tricky pathwayto corporate/public sponsorshipsNEIL CAMERON COURIER-ISLANDER
It’s an idea that’s used various business promotions, so why not with a municipality.
The Canadian Taxpayers Federation believes local gov-ernments should be actively recruiting corporate sponsor-ships for publicly provided facilities and services.
Campbell River City Man-ager Andy Laidlaw says this is a good idea when used appropriately.
“In larger communities, corporate sponsorship can provide financial benefits to local government while provid-ing branding opportunities for business,” Laidlaw says. “These are often the naming of recrea-tion facilities such as arenas or pools. Many arenas in Canada have score clocks and perim-eter boards and other facilities branded.”
In smaller communities where businesses are often smaller or franchise operations, it’s more difficult.
“In these municipalities, local governments are reticent to compete with the many local volunteer community organiza-tions for limited sponsorship funds,” said Laidlaw. “Sports, cultural, and environmental organizations all seek local sponsorship from their busi-ness community.”
So what would it be like if the city actually started com-peting for funding that would otherwise go to a non-profit organization?
“The idea contradicts the underlying philosophy of local government support for com-munity or volunteer organiza-tions,” said Laidlaw.
And, with limited opportun-
ities to gain corporate interest, “branding” or sponsorship must offer business something of value — at the very least community goodwill or name recognition, added Laidlaw.
But it still is not as simple as it may seem.
“Local government staff are hired for professional expertise in providing community ser-vices, and navigating the com-plex matrix of the marketing business is typically out of our realm,” Laidlaw said. “Further, it’s not clear which corporate logo the public would be willing to accept on, say, emergency or civic vehicles. In the extreme, imagine civic employees wear-ing sponsorship clothing like a NASCAR driver promoting corporate interests.”
And then there is always the question of taste and morals. What if Sportsplex worker uniforms were sponsored by a condom company?
There are all sorts of pit falls
that have to be navigated. And Laidlaw agrees.
He said corporate sponsor-ships must also be carefully considered to minimize the chance of aligning the local government with a business or activity that members of the public might object to.
While looking for corporate sponsorships is viable for local governments to consider, Laid-law summed it up: “We must be aware of the public’s accept-ance for branding of taxpayer resources with corporate logos and do our best not to compete with community organizations who also seek sponsorship support.”
Current examples of local sponsorship are:
· Splash Park · Lacrosse Box · Nunns Creek Ball Diamonds · Recreation programs — mul-
tiple local businesses contrib-ute supplies, food, etc.

This year marks the 10th year for the Great Strides Walk in Canada
and Campbell River has sup-ported all 10.
This year the 3 km walk will begin at Penfield School with registration at 10:30 and the walk starting at 11 a.m.
The walk will be followed by a barbecue thanks to the generosity of local Dairy Queen owner Jim Costain and his fellow Kinsmen who will help out. Other major sponsors include Marine Harvest, Boston Pizza, Quinsman Coal, Capacity Forest Prod-ucts and Thrifty Foods. Media sponsors are 97.3 Eagle FM and the Courier- Islander newspaper.
Joining the walk for the first time will be two and a half year old Maysa Milli-gan, who has cystic fibro-sis, and her family.
“I am so grateful for all the funds being raised to help find a cure for cystic fibrosis,” said Sarah Milli-gan, Maysa’s mother. “I have so much hope that Maysa will live a full life thanks to people who sup-port events like the Great Strides Walk. “
While at this time there is no cure for cystic fibrosis there is hope that a cure will be found soon. Each week in Canada, two chil-
dren are diagnosed and one person dies from this dis-ease. The funds raised from the Great Strides Walk support vital research and clinical care.
You can help Maysa and other children and young people who have cystic fibrosis by attending the event or sponsoring some-
one who is walking. Register online at
www.cysticfibrosis.ca/greatstrides/ or come to Penfield School Sunday May 25 at 11 a.m. and join the fun.

As an owner of a corporation, you have several innovative strat-egies available to help you reduce or defer cor-porate income tax and enhance your income in retirement.
Individual Pension Plan (IPP)
An IPP is an employer-sponsored registered pension plan that enables you to make potentially higher tax-deductible contribu-tions compared to your Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RSP). Your corporation claims the tax deductions, as opposed to an RSP, where you claim them personally. You can also make tax-deduct-ible contributions for past service or to “top up” your IPP. IPPs are ideal for self-employed incorporated business owners or professionals aged 40-71 who earn at least $127,611 annually. Unlike a regular pen-sion plan, an IPP is usu-ally established for just one person, although a spouse employed by the same company can also be a plan member in some cases. While offer-ing several key advan-tages, there are some considerations with an IPP. First, it essentially replaces your RSP, rath-er than supplementing it. There are also addi-
tional administrative requirements, including an actuarial valuation every three years.
Retirement compensa-tion arrangement (RCA)
Often referred to as the “super-sized pension”, an RCA is a non-regis-tered plan set up by your company to provide benefits when you retire. An RCA is designed to reduce the “pension gap” that high-income executives and busi-ness owners face due to contribution caps on regular registered retire-ment plans. Because of these caps, high-income earners are often unable to contribute enough to ensure they receive an adequate retirement income, considered by many financial planners to be 70% of pre-retire-ment income.
An RCA can help you overcome this shortfall. With an RCA, your com-pany makes 100% tax-deductible contributions, and you don’t pay person-al taxes until you start receiving payments from the RCA after you retire. This article appears in the RBC Dominion Securities guidebook, Family Wealth Manage-ment – Ten Strategies to Build and Protect Your Family’s Wealth.

The following are clarifications from a story published May 7 in the Courier-Islander.
Leona Adams and her group are not banding all the 1,000 geese that are estimated to be in the estuary, only
some of them. Also, the Campbell River Environmental Committee did not put the ‘carex’ in the estuary but is protecting it. Adams advocacy for the 9.5 acre site as mistakenly report-ed is for the 3.5 acre site only.
Adams has long argued that the Quinsam Coal mine continually exceeds water quality guidelines, not waste permit standards.
Adams was reported as saying that Quinsam Coal effluent threatens aquatic life in the Quinsam and Campbell Rivers. In fact, Adams
said that she has no proof that this is true.
“It is not proven that Quinsam Coal effluent threatens fish and other aquatic life in the Quinsam and Campbell rivers,” said Adams. “Governments lack of monitoring and their discounting of proven
independent scientific evidence for all industry is a threat to the environment. Adams did not believe the plans for the construction of Walmart could be modified and still believes it should not have been built and as of today still does not belong in the estuary.

KEN ZAHARIA COURIER-ISLANDER
Another dramatic game seven win, another Danish Elite League championship, and a fifth gold helmet to go on Campbell River’s Daryl Andrews burgeoning trophy case.
Playing in this seven season with SonderjyskE, Andrews, 37, collected an assist in a 4-2 game seven victory over Herning Blue Fox in the Dan-ish Elite League (DEL) cham-pionship series. Last season SonderjyskE also won a DEL title in a game seven win against Fredrickshavn.
Andrews said it was a tough series against Herning, espe-cially trying to create any offence.
“Our team lost the first two games, as Herning plays a very defensive system,” said Andrews, who was a New Jersey Devils seventh round pick in the 1996 NHL Entry Draft and played five seasons in the American Hockey League before heading over the Atlantic to ply his blueline skills in Europe. “It was hard to create offence, we changed a few things, and came back and won three in a row before losing game six. In the final game we scored all four goals during the second period.”
This championship was special for Andrews and his SonderjyskE teammates com-ing in front of the hometown fans.
“It was great to win at home, in our new arena that opened three years ago,” said Andrews who played Tyees rep hockey in Campbell River through to second year peewee. In his first year as a bantam aged player he went
on to the then Notre Dame College in Saskatchewan (it is now named the Athol Mur-ray College of Notre Dame). “Everyone in Southern Den-mark was following the game on TV, as the arena only holds 5,000 and it sold out in under 30 minutes.”
For Andrews, who finished his 14th year in pro hockey, this was his fifth (2006, 09, 10,
13, 14) Danish championship with SonderjyskE. And with the title comes another gold helmet which each winning player receives. It’s a Scandi-navian hockey tradition, they also do it in Sweden, Norway and Finland.
Andrews said playing for SonderjyskE for seven sea-sons, and winning five DEL titles along the way, is some-
thing he never would have though to have happened when he first went to play in Europe in the 2004-05 season in England for the Sheffield Steelers.
“I never imagined playing for the same team (Sonder-jyskE ) for so many seasons, it’s been a great experience,” said Andrews who is back home in Canada in Calgary.
Andrews is excited looking forward to see what next sea-son brings,
“After 14 seasons playing I am not ready to retire,” said 6’2” 205 lb. defenceman. “My body feels great, I’ve been lucky to have never had a ser-ious injury. I’m not sure yet as to what I’m going to do next season, but the plan is to play another season in Europe.”

Remember when you were a little kid playing in the backyard. That tree became a castle, the big
cardboard box became a fort, and figuring out how to climb up on the roof of the house was a whole day project. We found adventure in what ever we had at our disposal and had loads of fun doing it. As we grew we all ventured off our block, into the next town or maybe around the world. The adventures expanded and the experiences were enhanced along the way. But do we ever forget the simplicity of those early days and making the best of what we had?
When it comes to mountain biking, once we’ve ridden for a while, we can all get bored of our local trails and wish we had more riding, more variety and more adventure. Well, if we take a slightly different approach to our riding, we do have those things.
A couple guys I know through the shop headed out last week to explore the back roads and some of the local lakes. It ended up being 138 km of mountain biking in one day. A great experience that was very different than the norm. This com-ing Saturday another couple guys have decided to ride every trail in the Snowden Forest. That’s 100 km of technical single track in one day...a huge challenge and a great way to change the feel of trails they’ve ridden hundreds of times.
Now you don’t have to commit to massive distan-ces to add a bit of adventure to your regular rides. Just switch it up a bit. Start from a different park-ing lot than normal and the ride will have a new feel, ride your favourite trails backwards once in a while and you’ll barely recognize them, or take out some new riders and show them some good ride loops; you’ll see them differently yourself next time you ride.
We don’t all have the time to travel to the more famous riding locations around the world, but we are very, very lucky to have such amazing riding in our backyard. If we take the time to look at the scenery a bit, change up the ride style a little or set some small challenges, the adventure will come back into your riding before you know it.

It’s a rare sight to see one or maybe two deuces on your scorecard, but how about three! That’s what Ann Vogt did in Storey Creek Ladies Club play Tues-day, April 29. Vogt holed out her birdie putts on the par three holes No. 3, 5 and 13 at Storey Creek.
Despite the triple birdie day, Vogt didn’t top play, that was carded by Faye Dahoy with an 85. Julia Free and Linda Hayes tied for second.
Low net went to Jacquie Tarasoff with a 71, followed by Brenda Kelly in second, Nanette Manson and Liza Had-field tied for third.
Last Thursday, May 1, the game was Substitute Par (you can substitute your worst hole with a par). Mary Jane Kerr finished first with a 39, Cathy McCartney was runner-up.
There was a tie, at 31 each, for low net between Bernice Melissa and Nancy Curley. Angela Lee was third, Julie Brown was fourth.
Sunday’s play was a Triple Play Fun Day Partner Tournament. Kerr and Sandy Anderson finished first, Jacquie Tarasoff and Patty Bueckert second, Betty Campbell and Trish Piercy third, Free and Hadfield fourth.
Thursday, May 29, is the next date for the ever popular Storey Creek Ladies Guest Night which is a scramble for-mat. Call the Pro Shop at 250-923-3673 to sign up as a group or as an individ-ual. The sponsors will be Epicure and Miki’s Sesame Sushi.

The local roller derby season begins this Saturday, May 10 at the Comox Valley Sports Centre.
A doubleheader event hosted by the Brick House Betties will debut the Betties’ junior derby team, the Stone Cold Stellas, made up of young skaters ages 12-17. In their first public game, the Stone Cold Stellas will take on the Candy Crushers, Nanaimo’s junior derby team. Junior derby players start out playing with positional block-ing only, but these skaters have advanced to play a contact game. The Stellas are coached by two of the Betties’ veteran skaters, Wright Krazy and Icesis.
“Sometimes coaching the jun-iors is like herding cats,” said coach Icesis, “but the light bulb has gone on for them lately. I’m really excited to see our juniors play.”
The Brick House Betties will dish out hits, 70s-style, in the second game of the night against Nanaimo’s Brass Knuckle Derby Dames. This “Dy-No-Mite Family Night” will feature performances by QUEST drum line at half times, face painting, and a bouncy castle. Doors open at 5 p.m., junior game starts at 6, tickets available at the door only (cash), a concession will be open, and there will be merchandise tables,
a raffle, and 50/50 draws.The Brick House Betties’ only
other home event this season will be another doubleheader at the
CVSC on Saturday, June 7 (19+ only). Join them on Facebook or visit www.brickhousebetties.com for more info.

FENCE
HEIGHTS
Ask Luke
Careful, Not So High!Before you start building your fence, remember there are regulations that aff ect height. These are intended to help create “good neighbour relations”. Residential front yard maximum fence heights are generally 1.2m (4 ft.) and side and rear yards are 1.8m (6 ft.). Come in to City Hall and talk with the Land Use Services staff about additional height information. You can call us at 250-286-5726 or check out the City website at www.campbellriver.ca/planning-building-development.

There are size restrictions for a secondary suite. • Secondary suites can be no larger than 90 square metres (approximately 970 square feet)
• Secondary suites can be no larger than 40% of the main house
• Secondary suites can have a maximum of two bedrooms
Do you have enough room for required parking spaces? In addition to the two spaces required for the main house, one more parking space must be provided for a secondary suite.
Are you in the correct zone for a secondary suite? Only certain zones in the City permit secondary suites. If your property is not located in a zone that permits secondary suites, you will need to seek approval from the City to change it.
Do you have a building permit? Apply at the City for a building permit to ensure that a secondary suite is constructed to meet health and safety requirements of the BC Building Code.
Does your site require a development permit due to steep slopes, streams or eagle trees? Check the City’s Offi cial Community Plan on the website, or visit us at City Hall to fi nd out.
If a secondary suite was constructed without a permit, now what?To make an existing secondary suite legal, the property must be zoned appropriately and a building permit issued. The zone makes the secondary suite a permitted use, and the building permit ensures the suite meets the minimum safety standards for secondary suites as required by the 2012 BC Building Code.
Protect your interests: Not having a building permit, or correct zoning for secondary suites may have implications for home insurance.
QUESTIONS? The Land Use Services Department can help you through this process. Please contact us at 250-286-5726 or visit us at City Hall.
Thinking of installing a secondary suite?Before you set up a rental suite with separate cooking, sleeping and bathroom facilities inside your house or on your property, consider this:
