COURT
SIAN THOMSON COURIER-ISLANDER
The man at the heart of ‘one of the most horrific cases of animal abuse’ the
BC SPCA has ever witnessed, is also been charged with two sex crimes.
Rupert Wilson, 48, was charged in May with one count of sexual assault and one count of sexual interference with a child under 14. The crime(s) allegedly took place in Sept. 2007.
Wilson pleaded guilty on Feb. 25 to one count of abandoning an animal in distress or wilfully neglecting it by failing to pro-vide suitable and adequate food, water shelter and care.
His partner, Crystal Bee, was also charged and has pleaded not guilty. Her trial is scheduled for the fall.
Molly, a then 18-month-old shepherd-cross dog, was found Nov. 25, 2013, in critical condi-
tion, non-responsive, shivering, severely emaciated and near death, tied to a porch on the Fort Rupert reserve. Her collar has also embedded into her neck.
While Molly is happy and has made a full recovery, the courts are not finished with Wilson just yet. Wilson was appearing in Port Hardy court Tuesday for sentencing on the animal cruelty charge. A second charge was stayed. There was no informa-tion about the sentence as the Courier-Islander went to press.
Wilson faces jail time between 18 months and five years and a fine of up to $10,000.
If convicted on the sexual interference charge, Wilson faces penalties ranging from 90 days to 10 years imprisonment.
If convicted on the sexual assault charge, Wilson faces pen-alties ranging from 18 months to 10 years imprisonment.

Mayor Jakeway namedto ICET board of directorsCOURIER-ISLANDER
Campbell River Mayor Walter Jakeway has been appointed as
a member of the Island Coastal Economic Trust’s (ICET) board of directors.
Jakeway was named to the post along with Tofino Mayor Josie Osborne and Comox Mayor Paul Ives. All are from the North Island Sunshine Coast Regional Advisory Committee (NISCRAC), a group that includes Mayors, Regional District Chairs and MLAs from the region.
ICET is a $50 million endowment established in 2006 by the Govern-ment of British Colum-bia to help diversify the economies of central and northern Vancouver Island and the Sunshine Coast.
Port McNeill Mayor Gerry Furney was re-elected to ICET’s board and Qualicum Beach May-or Teunis Westbroek will continue to serve as Chair of the NISCRAC and ex-officio board member. ICET Board Chair, Mayor Phil Kent of Duncan, congratulated all on their elections.
“As committee and board members on the trust, we represent our communities, but we also
have a duty to invest in projects and programs that benefit the entire region,” he said. “I’d like to thank all of the newly elected board members for stepping forward to help guide this unique regional investment organization.”
Kent also thanked out-going members Mayor Ted Lewis of Zeballos and Mayor John Henderson of Sechelt for their ser-vice and commitment to the ICET Board. He also recognized the late Bev Parnham, Mayor of Port Hardy.
“We’re still shocked and saddened by Bev’s sudden death, and on behalf of ICET, I’d like to acknowledge her passion and efforts to improve conditions for the entire region,” he said.
In addition to the three newly-elected NISCRAC members, the Central South Island Regional Advisory Committee (CSIRAC) re-elected Mayor John Ruttan of Nanaimo, Mayor Phil Kent of Duncan, Mayor Rob Hutchins of Lady-smith, and Joe Stanhope of the Regional District of Nanaimo to the ICET Board.
Gerry Giles of the Cowi-chan Valley Regional District will continue to
serve as CSIRAC chair and ex-officio board member. Both Regional Advisory Committees elect four board members for two-year terms. The two Regional Advisory Committee chairs sit on the Board as ex-officio members. The remaining five board members are appointed by the province for three-year terms. The NISCRAC held elections on May 9 and the CSIRAC on June 13. The new Board terms are effective July 15, 2014 to July 14, 2016.
ICET is guided by a Board of Directors and two Regional Advis-ory Committees which include more than 50 locally elected officials and MLAs and five appointees. This team of leaders collaborates to set regional priorities and build vital multi-regional networks. Through a com-munity-centred decision-making process, ICET has approved $47 million for over 100 economic infra-structure and economic development readiness projects on the Island and Sunshine Coast since implementing its grant program in 2007.
ICET investments have leveraged over $260 mil-lion in incremental fund-ing into the region.

DRIVING
Expect delaysCOURIER-ISLANDER
Drivers should expect single-lane traffic in each direction on Dogwood Street between
7th and 4th avenues as the City of Campbell River replaces a water-main this summer.
Construction work will take place in this three-block span from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday to Friday throughout July and August.
“While this work is underway, we ask drivers to please follow flaggers directing traffic, and we thank everyone for their patience during this temporary change,” says Jason Hartley, the City’s capital works manager.
Seniors’ centre add on costs at $3.8 to $5.25MNEIL CAMERON COURIER-ISLANDER
Adding a seniors’ centre to the Camp-bel l River Com-
munity Centre could cost between $3.8 million and $5.7 million in construction costs alone.
That was part of a report to city council Tuesday night after city staff discussed the possibility with Low Hammond Rowe Architects (LHRA), the original architects of the Community Centre.
LHRA says that rough estimates of construction costs for an additional
10,000 square feet would be in the range of $3.5 mil-lion to $3.8 million. For an addition of 15,000 square feet, as requested by the seniors’ society, the con-struction costs would be in the range of $5.25 million to $5.7 million.
In the meantime staff reported to council that “should further investi-gation for the develop-ment of a seniors’ centre on the Community Centre site be directed, LHRA has provided a report with a cost esti-mate of $7,000 for a high level assessment.
“If the city opts for a more detailed approach, including stakeholder engagement, 3D floor plans, energy modeling for an expansion, and a report to council, the cost estimates range from $18,000 to $24,000.
Staff reported to coun-cil that LHRA has high-lighted the necessity of developing a clear needs assessment, preliminary space list, and an analy-sis of facility require-ments for the users of the add-on prior to beginning any design work.

24/7 requestfrom companyNEIL CAMERON COURIER-ISLANDER
The main company doing the work at the John Hart Generating Station applied for blasting and construction zone variances at Tuesday’s
council meeting that will allow it to operate 24/7. Currently the bylaw permits blasting to occur
between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday to Saturday, excluding any statutory holiday.
In a report to city council, city staff said they have reviewed the request “and have no concerns with permitting blasting 24/7 because, apart from the entrance and exit to the tunnel, all blast-ing will occur well underground and will not be heard, nor impact the surrounding area.”
Staff also said the company’s request for truck-ing the blasted rock from the John Hart site 24/7 also would not pose a problem.
There are expected to be six to eight dump trucks per hour utilizing Highway 28 and 19 exclu-sively and will be hauling the material to points north (Middle Point) and west (the gravel pit at 401 Farwell Road located off Willis Road), both of which are about one kilometre from the nearest residence.
City staff also assessed the current night-time traffic, specifically for the MVI mine at Myra Falls.
They said the mine reported that their operation generates approximately 40 vehicle trips between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m., including buses, cement trucks, fuel tankers, supply trucks and personal vehicles.
“Considering that there is already significant traffic along this road at night, staff do not believe that the dump trucks hauling from the (site) will generate higher levels of noise so long as the driv-ers do not use engine brakes which are prohibited within the city,” said the staff report.
And even if the city wanted to restrict night-time traffic along Highway 28 and 19, it actually has no legal authority to do so because the roads are provincial highways.

The Campbell River Environmental Com-mittee (CREC) is wor-
ried a proposed contamin-ated soil treatment centre will leach materials into the city’s drinking water.
In a letter to city council June 12 CREC said they were opposed to Upland Excavation Ltd.’s proposal to construct a bio-remediation facility which will store and process up to 50,000 cubic metres of contaminated soil on Upland owned lands at 7311 Gold River Highway.
Their main concern, said the CREC letter, is that “these lands and the entire contaminated soil remedia-tion activities are situated on top of a large aquifer which is on the south, east and north shore of McIvor Lake. McIvor Lake is part of Lower Campbell Lake and connects to John Hart Lake, which is the source of Campbell River’s drinking water.”
CREC said time is running short for people to respond to the proposal because the deadline for submissions is July 5.
“CREC is bringing this issue to the attention of the City of Campbell River, the Strathcona Regional District, and the residents of Campbell River because CREC is concerned over the potentially severe impact of the proposed contaminated storage and treatment facility on the quality of our drinking water,” said the [email protected]

On July 1, the much talked about Canad-ian Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL) comes into force. Following in the footsteps of the US, UK and Australia, the Canadian gov-ernment has passed this legislation to pro-tect both businesses and individuals from spam and online threats. These threats can include obtaining personal informa-tion through spyware or phishing, identity theft and malware such as viruses.
Is Your Business Affected?CASL defines a commercial electronic
message as “any electronic message that encourages participation in a commercial activity, regardless of whether there is an expectation of profit.” This means that if you use email, phone, text or instant mes-sage to market your business then this law applies.
It does not apply to all of social media, for example broadcast tweets, Facebook and LinkedIn posts are exempt, however if you direct message your followers, this will be included under the law.
The law focuses on the originator of the message. Therefore as a Canadian business owner, all messages sent will be applicable no matter the country the recipient is located.
How to Comply with CASLConsent under CASL is divided into two
categories implied and expressed. Expressed ConsentExpressed consent means someone act-
ively gave you permission to contact him/her. To get express consent you must:
• Clearly describe the purposes for requesting consent
• Provide the name of the person seeking consent, and identify on whose behalf con-
sent is sought if different• Provide contact information (mailing
address and either a phone number or an email address) of those parties seeking consent
• Indicate the recipient can unsubscribeImplied ConsentImplied consent means that you have a
relationship with someone, but you have not expressly requested their permission to contact them. For example if they have bought or leased a product, good or service from you, but you did not specify that you would market to them.
Old Contacts Vs New ContactsIt is important that from July 1, you
track how your contacts have been obtained and if you have implied or expressed consent to contact them. Under the new law you cannot keep your implied consent contacts on your list forever. They will expire.
For implied contacts captured before July 1, you will have three years to send messages to your recipients. From July 1, 2017, you will then need the expressed con-sent of those recipients.
For implied contacts captured after July 1, 2014, you will have just two years from when the details were originally captured.
Obtaining ConsentWhile single opt-ins (where no follow
up email is sent to confirm consent) are still permitted, pre-checked boxes are not. The contact must expressly tick a box to confirm.
Verbal consent is also permitted, how-ever if you do not record your phone calls, it is important to make sure you log when and how you obtained that consent. When
collecting business cards at a trade show or event, these contacts will be classi-fied as implied consent, as they have not expressly told you they would like to hear from you. It therefore may be better to create a form for people to complete and indicate their consent. This form can then be kept on file, in either paper or elec-tronic form, to confirm how consent was received.
The Exceptions: When Consent is not Required
There are a few exceptions to CASL, mainly concerning the delivery of custom-er service through electronic message. For example, you will not need consent to send the following:
• Response to a request for information• Quotes or estimates• Receipts or confirmation of
transactions• Warranty, recall, safety or security
information on your products• Information about an ongoing pur-
chase, subscription, membership, account or loan
• Delivery of your product or service e.g.
a link to download an eBook or piece of software
There are also exceptions to the law if you have a personal or family relation-ship with the recipient and there have been voluntary, two-way communica-tions. This can include friends, family friends, partners, spouses and parent-child relationships.
Lastly, you may refer a prospective client to another person if you have an exist-ing relationship with that client. If you receive a referral, you may send one mes-sage to that prospect, but it must include the full name of the person who originally referred them.
Penalties for Not ComplyingNot complying with CASL can cost you
$1 million (individual) or $10 million (com-pany). You can also incur unlimited fines or imprisonment for false or misleading messages. And not only can you be fined by a regulatory body, you can also be sued by the general public. An individual or a group of individuals can seek $200 per message received or $1 million per day, plus compensatory damages.

Sometimes they don’t just cry wolfYou can’t blame the Camp-
bell River Environmental Committee for being a
little gun shy when it comes to the health of the city’s fresh water supply.
They recently sent a letter of concern to the city about a pro-posed contaminated soil treatment centre that they think could leak into the city’s water supply.
The proposal is to construct a
bio-remediation facility which will store and process up to 50,000 cubic metres of contaminated soil on lands at 7311 Gold River Highway.
And anyone who is concerned about that plan has until July 5 to respond.
CREC’s previous battles have been with possible mine leachate into the Quinsam River and they have had a running battle over that case for years.
This one, however, takes on new life when it involves the city’s drinking water.
“CREC is bringing this issue to the attention of the City of Camp-bell River, the Strathcona Regional District, and the residents of Campbell River because CREC is concerned over the potentially severe impact of the proposed con-taminated storage and treatment facility on the quality of our drink-
ing water,” a letter reads.This is the same type of group
that warned of possible contamin-ants from a mine operation enter-ing the Campbell River proper a few decades ago. They were ignored at first, and then the mine tailings led to the virtual extinc-tion of salmon in the Campbell River. Let’s hope maybe this time those who cry wolf will be listened to a little more closely.
Previous question:
Are you in favour of the North-ern Gateway pipeline?
New question: Are you worried about a soil-remedia-tion facility near the city’s drinking water supply?

Enbridge endorsementsurprising, disappointing
It was a surprise for me to read an endorsement by the News-Media Group in favor of the Enbridge pipeline. As an ordin-ary citizen I would like to see the press rein in their sympathies and provide information and different comments about the future of pipelines and tankers in the ocean in light of climate change and the protection of our ocean and marine life. For me the article degraded the credibil-ity of the paper.

Big oil companiesdon’t pay any taxes
RE: Your editorial extolling the virtues of Northern Gateway.
I wish to respond to your trope over the signature of Vancou-ver Island NewsMedia Group in your June 20 edition. I’ll call you Mr. Group for short. While it reads like a press release from Enbridge or the Harper govern-ment, Mr. Group, I will neverthe-less assume that you did your due diligence before coming to the conclusions in the penul-timate paragraph, you know, Canadian oil paying for jobs, health care, education etc. You would then know that big oil not only pays no taxes, but actually drains some $34 billion from the taxes that hard working Canad-ians pay, or Canadians like me, a 70-year-old pensioner on a fixed income.
The tar sands are controlled by foreign oil companies, whose
billions in untaxed profits go offshore into the pockets of their managers and shareholders. Alberta, awash in tar, has had several years of budget deficits and cuts to education and health. It is currently dealing with more flooding while it has yet to fully compensate those affected by last year’s floods. Mr Group, your idea that Enbridge’s pipeline is good for Canada ignores this company’s sorry record of spills on its current lines. Did you ask the people of Kalamazoo for their views? That dilbit spill was
four years ago and still hasn’t been cleaned up.
Mr. Group, what I find most disturbing about your piece is its complete disregard for the environment, and, the future for our children and their children. The tar sands are the largest source of pollution in this coun-try. We have to wean ourselves off of this energy source. The bil-lions in tax breaks we give to this sector would be better invested in clean, renewable energy sources. This is such an urgent matter, Mr. Group, that I may
have to engage in civil disobedi-ence to help stop this project. If I do, I am sure that you will call me a terrorist. That’s okay, because I know that my children, and theirs, will see me as a hero, and I value their views much more than yours.

Pro Enbridge editorialpretty typical pro oil
Your editorial promoting the Northern Gateway Pipeline was pretty typical pro oil propa-ganda. Suggest that opposition is influenced by professional fund-raisers and American backers and to be against this pipeline is unCanadian and threatens the future of our Canadian way of life. Well I think that a big part of our way of life includes access to clean water and a healthy environment. This pipeline and massive gas extraction threatens our way of life and environment here in B.C. and when things go wrong it is B.C. that will face the long term costs. Governments should be promoting clean alternatives instead of push-ing for massive increases in the use of fossil fuels and claiming that we have to do this because everyone else is too. All this is about the future and I for one would like my grandchildren to be able to catch a fish in the wild, have clean sources of water and maybe even be able to go skiing in the winter — a future which is looking increasingly questionable.

Pitch made for permanentsobering centre downtownNEIL CAMERON COURIER-ISLANDER
The Campbell River Housing and Resource Centre
(CRHRC) would like to put a permanent sobering centre beside the down-town fire hall where the all weather shelter was located this winter.
CRHRC Program Man-ager Paul Mason has told the city that School District 72 has offered a large portable building that their students will renovate and a local prop-erty owner has offered a construction trailer as a donation.
Mason said there would be no cost to the city. He said Island Health and BC Housing would contribute for the costs to run it and the centre could also be used as a shelter in the winter months.
Fire Chief Ian Baikie said a fixed facility at that location would have to meet the requirements of the fire department
regarding fire sprinklers, smoke alarms and well-lit emergency exits. He also said that rather than using a generator like the tem-porary shelter, it would require a more permanent power source as well as water and sewer hook-ups.
Mason told the city he is currently working on a business plan in that regard.
The Public Safety Sub Committee of the Com-munity Services, Recrea-tion and Culture Commis-sion has endorsed Camp-bell River Family Services in their endeavor.
The committee said the success of the cold weath-er shelter shows the need for a year-round centre in the treatment of addic-tions and homelessness.
The RCMP also weighed in on the matter.
“The proposal from Paul Mason requesting support to place structures at the existing site of the emer-gency shelter is fully sup-ported by the Campbell
River RCMP,” said a report from the RCMP. “This initiative is directly in line with our crime reduction strategies and vision to have a fully functioning sobering/assessment centre in Campbell River.”[email protected]

About 700 residents shared their thoughts on recreation in Campbell River.
“The results of April’s public feedback on community recrea-tion services confirmed the value of many of the current commun-ity services and provided infor-mation that will help us enhance recreation services,” said Lynn Wark, the city’s recreation and culture manager. “We’re look-ing forward to making changes based on this feedback to encour-age even more people to take part in recreation and culture programs and activities.”
Highlights of the survey: • The importance of keeping
services affordable and access-ible for people of all ages, stages and abilities.
• Fun, socialization and fitness are the main reasons people par-ticipate in recreation programs and activities.
• Drop-in activities are pre-ferred for sports, fitness, health and wellness.
• Free trials were a popular suggestion.• People want to see even more pro-
grams in parks and promoting outdoor recreation.

Second dog park,off-leash area eyedSIAN THOMSON COURIER-ISLANDER
With the Penfield West Dog Park receiving mixed
reviews in terms of upkeep and appearance, the city’s general manager of parks, recreation and culture has thrown a nice, juicy bone in to the mix.
Ross Milthorp said the city is looking into estab-lishing a second dog park and an off-leash area in the community.
Saying that the West Dog Park, Campbell River’s first and only fully fenced, dog off-leash area, cur-rently has the lawn mowed once a month, Milthorp also recognized there could be some improvements.
“We are looking at put-ting in some new amen-ities, for instance a shelter so people can socialize in poor weather,” he said. “In some ways we are experimenting with the
concept and will take what we have learned when we create the next two. We will be going to the (rec-reation) comission with proposed sites for another dog park and an off-leash area where they can really run.”
With about $20,000 put aside for this venture, it has been suggested that the second dog park be located in Willow Point Park next to Alder Street behind the ball hockey box, or at Nunns Creek Park, on the backside near the baseball diamonds.
While some users of the Penfield West Dog Park have complained that the conditions are horrible, grass is overgrown, and upkeep is being neglected, Milthorp said the park is not a high visibility area but it is well used.
“Interesting aspects of dog park users is that owners really socialize
more at a dog park, so it is a good idea all round,” he said.
The park runs from Joa-nne Drive to the corner of Hilchey and Dogwood roads and links the Pen-field neighbourhood with the Beaver Lodge Forest Lands and the Dogwood Bike Path. It has a paved path running the length of the park, irrigated lawn areas and park benches. The east end of the park features a children’s play-ground and the west end of the park features Camp-bell River’s first fully-fenced, dog off-leash area.
If you plan to visit the dog park your dog must be vaccinated and licensed, older than four months, friendly and social. Owners must keep their dogs in sight, under voice control, and scoop the poop for deposit into the garbage cans provided.

The City of Campbell River finan-cial statement for 2013 shows that the fire department became a sort of $100,000-a-year club.
The numbers are skewed upwards because retroactive monies result-ing from contract settlements were included in the 2013 figures.
With that 12 members of the department made over $100,000 in
2013, leading the way was Fire Chief Ian Baikie at $139,103 plus $11,042 in expenses.
Next was Fire Captain Ken Dawson at $125,024, followed by Deputy Fire Captain Chris Vrabel at $124,641, Fire Captain Ried Wharton at $121,822, Fire Captain John Baker at $121,780 and Fire Captain John Valton at $119,792.
Regular firefighters also cracked the $100,000 a year club.
Firefighter Kelly Bellefleur made $115,435, Michael Dumont was at $100,170, Stewart Dumont at $101, 170, Bruce Holbrook at $104,172, Mark McKenzie at $104,183 and Lee Pendergast was at $100,483. And other members could soon be in the club with firefighter Scott Kratz-mann at $97,361, Chris Schulte at $94,639, Tyler Sandy at $96,678 and Greg Ideins at $98,592.
But being in the ‘line of fire’ isn’t
the only good paying job at the fire department.
There are nine Alarm Room Oper-ators who all made about $80,000 per year with the retro figures thrown in.
The Alarm Room Operators and their salaries are Carol Anderson $82,310, Paula Eppler $82,310, Jamie Hoffman $83,583, Paula Anne Ripley $92,900, Laura Ritchie $80,680, Deb-bie Rogers $82,833, Donna Stewart $82,056 and Susan Tripple $77,387.

How to spruce up outdoor space before hosting guests
Beautiful nights make for great opportunities to invite some friends over for a starry soiree under the nighttime sky. Unlike house parties at which guests will be spending most of their time indoors and in various rooms throughout the house, outdoor parties are often limited to smaller areas, such as patios. That can make things much less taxing on hosts, who won’t have much prep work to do to get an outdoor hosting area ready for guests.
But even an impromptu party requires planning and a little elbow grease before guests arrive. The following are a few areas to address before guests arrive for your next outdoor get-together.
• Clear the walkways and patio of debris. The walkways and patio may not need too much attention, but give them a once-over with a broom to clear any debris. When clearing the patio of debris, move all furniture, making sure to sweep up any debris, including food, that might have fallen beneath tables and chairs since your most recent party. If the patio is especially dirty, consider power washing it to remove stubborn stains that can rob the area of its aesthetic appeal.
• Clean the furniture. Whether it’s been months since your last party on the patio or just a few days, the furniture must be cleaned. Unless items have been stored in a garage or shed, patio furnishings are exposed to the elements, and that means dirt, soil, soot or pollen may have accumulated on the furniture. Wipe down all cushions, using a mild detergent when necessary. Cushions may need some time to dry, so make this one of your fi rst tasks, and leave cushions out in the sun so they dry more quickly. Once the cushions have been cleaned, wipe down the furniture with a wet towel to clear them of any dirt or debris.
• Clean and inspect the grill. The grill is a go-to accessory when hosting an outdoor party, so give the grill a thorough cleaning before the fi rst guests arrive. Nothing brings a party to a halt like hunger, and guests may begin to grow antsy if they are not served food in a reasonable amount of time. If you are using a propane grill, check to make sure the tanks are full as you clean the grill. Running out of propane is a summer soiree faux pas, so you might want to keep an extra tank handy just to be safe.
• Clear the entryway to your home. Your guests will likely be using the same entryway over and over again during the party, so focus on cleaning this entryway so guests don’t trip or have to jump over toys on their way to an indoor restroom. Once the entryway has been cleared of potential tripping hazards, make sure the indoor path to the restroom is clear as well.

Even with the windows cracked on a hot day your dog could die in your car.
This is the word from the “No Hot Dogs” campaigners, a group of 196 people formed via social media in Campbell River and Courtenay to educate people that within five to 10 minutes in a hot car, a dog can suffer severe ill-ness, irreparable brain damage or death.
The group, administered by Carly D’Aoust, came together on May 30 and branched off into a working group of 18 people who are working together to develop educational materials, posters for store windows and flyers for
windows of vehicles where a dog is seen.
“The group was formed out of a need to educate the public in a mass form,” said D’Aoust. “We wanted to eliminate the excuse ‘I didn’t know it got that hot, I left the windows down’ when people are asked why they left their dogs in the car. Warm weather has arrived, and even after the tra-gedy on the mainland (where six dogs perished from heat stroke in the truck of a dog walker), people are still reporting dogs being left in vehicles.”
The campaign provides people with free printout flyers to leave on cars if an animal is inside a vehicle when the temperature is not high and the dog is in no
distress. The campaign also wants to
change vendors minds about allowing dogs in stores on hot
days.“I was personally shocked when
someone asked if it was too hot on the Campbell River (facebook)
pet page and many people said it was still OK and to just park in the shade and leave the windows open,” said D’Aoust. “I had seen my car thermometer that day be over 100 (F), that was in May. So yes I think it is a problem. People just don’t get it.”
The group is hoping to get busi-nesses onside with posters in their windows telling people they sup-port the group and will report any dogs they see left in vehicles on warm days, and it has the emer-gency numbers to call if a dog is in distress so people can easily spot a poster on a window and know whom to call.
“We also are getting handouts together to put on the windows of vehicles with dogs in them as an educational tool and to let people know the general public is watching and being vigilant,” said D’Aoust.
Kyli Green, a member of the group, said she brings a water bowl and a tall bottle of water with her on hot days when her dog is riding with her.
“If the water gets warm or runs out I go through a drive thru and get water. People seem to think leaving them in the back of a truck is better, where they have no shade from the direct sun. If my dog isn’t allowed in the store, I don’t go. If I know I have to buy groceries then I leave her at home. I know I get hot when sitting in a car and usually end up opening a door or standing outside. If only our pets had that option.”
A dog can die in a hot car within 15 minutes, which is how long it takes for the inside temperature to reach 109 F or 42.7 C. On some hot days, it takes less than 10 min-utes for the temperature inside a car to reach 160 F or 71.1 C.
Signs of a dog in distress include: heavy panting, dry mouth, thick saliva, gums redder than normal, breathing difficul-ties, weakness, vomiting, diar-rhea, collapse and seizure.
“People should watch from a distance to see if the dog is in dis-tress, staying back will keep the dog calmer which is important if he is already hot,” said D’Aoust. “They should look around for the owners, get the nearby store to page them if possible. Call the SPCA or Coastal Animal Con-trol, and if you think immediate intervention is necessary, call the RCMP.
“We are working towards get-ting signs like these in businesses everywhere. Hopefully we can all work together and get the ignor-ance and stupidity that surrounds this issue eliminated.”
Causing animals to suffer in any way is a criminal offence.
If your dog suffers or dies as a result of being left in a car, the penalties include jail for up to five years and fines up to $10,000.

A clear decision has been reached on the future of the 911 emergency call
answering service currently based at the RCMP Detachment in Courtenay.
But exactly what it is will remain under wraps until later this week, as representatives of the six regional districts on the North Island 911 Corporation board want to report back to their respective authorities on what they intend to do.
There are three possible futures for the centre to be discussed.
One was to keep it in Courtenay with the RCMP, the others were to transfer to an alternative provider — either a significantly expanded fire dispatch centre in Campbell River to handle all 911 calls, or con-
tracting with E-Comm, the not-for-profit emergency communications centre in Vancouver which already fields calls from large parts of the province.
Alternatives have been consid-ered in depth because of rapidly escalating costs.

You could say it was a sweet meet.
Last Tuesday, at Phoenix Mid-dle School, the Campbell River Comets Track and Field Club hosted their first ever Hershey’s Track Meet.
This free community event was attended by over 35 chil-dren aged 9-14 years. Each child competed in up to three track and field events including a standing long jump, softball throw, 100m dash, plus 600m and 1,200m distance runs.
The Comets coaches organ-ized and ran the meet, with many of the senior Comets ath-letes volunteering to measure and/or time the events. These athletes, including former Comet and now national and provincial junior men’s indoor and outdoor champion long distance runner Brendan Hoff, were more than happy to give pointers and encouragement to the younger competitors. Attendance was made even sweeter as every participant also received a delicious Her-shey’s treat.
These fun meets are held throughout North America to help promote physical fitness, participation and sportsman-ship, while introducing chil-dren to the basics of track and
field…the run, jump and throw principles.
Sponsored by the Hershey Company, the track meets have been held for over 36 years. Winners in the Campbell River meet will be considered for advancement to the Provincial meet to be held June 28. Win-ners at the Provincial level will
be entered into a regional pool and become eligible for selec-tion to a Regional Team which will travel to Hershey, Pennsyl-vania, to compete in the North American finals Saturday, Aug. 2. The trip to Hershey is free.
Some notable local results of the meet included two triple winners: Trevor Nast (boy’s
11-12) softball throw/100m/standing long jump and Wyatt Murray (boy’s 9-10) softball throw/100m/600m.
There were also two double winners: Antoine Minfray (boy’s 13-14) softball throw/1,200m and Lauren Linegar (girl’s 11-12) softball throw/100m.

BraveHearts and River Spirit dragon boat teams want to thank all Relay for Life organizers, volun-teers and supporters for their hard work and deter-mination in making this year’s event a success.
The two teams also invite everyone to their Fourth Annual Race the River dragon boat regatta Saturday, June 28 at Dick Murphy Park on the Tyee Spit.
Races begin at 8:30 a.m. and the day will be full of food, fun and entertainment. With 19 teams partici-pating this year the racing will be fast and furious.
Marine Harvest will provide delicious barbecued salmon burgers for lunch with all funds raised going to the Campbell River Hospice Society. 97.3 FM The Eagle will be on site as well as local enter-tainers, Serious Folk, Cat & Kalvin, Heartland and Ron Tilley.
There will be a carnation ceremony at noon rec-ognizing cancer survivors, those who are fighting the disease and those who have lost their battle.
To avoid parking problems, a free shuttle, provid-ed by Pacific Western Transit, will run between the parking lot behind SuperStore to the site and back throughout the day.
The public is invited to come on down and join the fun.

The summer swimming season is getting into full swing, and the Campbell River Sal-mon Kings Summer Swim Club have already made a splash at the Oak Bay Swim Meet in Victoria.
The Commonwealth Pool, known to be a ‘fast’ pool, was the venue for a memor-able weekend for all the Salmon Kings that attended.
The quickness of the pool was most notable for Brooke Wenger who swept first place in all six events she swam as well as two relays. Wenger also broke three long-standing meet records for 50m free, 50m fly and 50m breast.
The Killer Whales Div. 4 girl’s relay team
won both the 200m medley relay and the 200mfree relay. The team consisted of Wenger, Chloe Dobrinsky, Avery Moskal and JuliaAlguire.
Alexander Alguire swam well as did both Elizaveta MacDonald and Kobe Koizumi at their first ever meet.
Coach-in-training Kurtis Scriba swam seven individual events and came top-eight in all races.
Even two of the coaches got in on the action and showed their stuff. Killer Whales head coach Taylor Padington swam to a first in the 100m back and a second in the 50m free.Assistant coach Olivia Carter also did well with a second in 50m fly, a fourth in 100m breast and a sixth in 50m free.

################################################################
Sectarian Violence and True Religion
The history of organized religion is fi lled with what can only be described as sectarian or partisan violence. There have been disagreements from the beginning of Christianity over what should constitute the correct form of both practice and belief. And these disagreements are only natural: when fi nite, fallible human beings try to determine what their infi nite, infallible God expects of them, there is going to be disagreement. But, wise men and women should realize this and not let these disagreements turn to armed confl ict and bloodshed. Sadly, this sort of religious violence has been all too common. Catholics and Protestants waged a series of wars for much of the 16th and 17th century. Shia and Sunni Muslims have waged war against each other for centuries, and of course there seems to be no end in sight to the violence which Muslims and Jews perpetrate against each other in the Mid-East. This is most unfortunate, since we all claim to believe in a loving and merciful God who abhors violence and the spilling of innocent blood. We should pray for peace among all of God’s children and do what we can in our lives to foster a spirit of religious unity.
— Christopher Simon
“For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body, whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free, and we were all given the one Spirit to drink.” 1 Corinthians 12:13

PRE-AUTHORIZED WITHDRAWALS FOR 2015 PROPERTY TAXESRemember, signing up for the program in 2014 means your payments will apply to your 2015 property taxes.
The City’s new Pre-Authorized Withdrawal Service for Property Taxes will allow Campbell River property tax payers the ability to make regular monthly payments towards next year’s property taxes.
If interested, here is your checklist to ensure your application is complete:
• 2014 property taxes paid in full;
• 2014 Home Owner Grant claimed (if eligible);
• Pre-Authorized Withdrawal Service application form fi lled out;
• Void cheque attached to completed application form;
• Completed application form initialled where necessary, signed and dated;
• Completed application form returned to City Hall in person or via mail: 301 St. Ann’s Road, Campbell River BC V9W 4C7
Remember – use your 2014 Net Taxes amount for the calculation of your monthly withdrawal.
Application forms were included with your 2014 property tax notice, and are also available online at www.campbellriver.ca, at City Hall, the Community Centre and the Sportsplex;
The fi rst withdrawals under the program will occur on August 10, 2014 and will be applied as a prepayment towards your 2015 property taxes.
If you are coming to City Hall to pay your taxes, we’re making more room for you. From June 16 – July 2 (inclusive) additional public parking is being made available at City Hall.
Those coming in to City Hall to make property tax payments are encouraged to park in the larger City Hall parking lot with access off the Alder street hill leading into and out of downtown.
During this time, parking stalls numbered 1-38 and 41-47 will be available for public use.
The smaller parking lot at the top of St. Ann’s remains available for public parking but is limited to only 11 stalls.
Property taxes and Home Owner Grants are due July 2, 2014.
