Son charged in father’s deathBy Margaret SpeirsTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

TERRACE - A man charged in connection with the second de-gree murder of his father will remain in jail at least until early next week.

Jeremy Price, 19, had his case adjourned to a later date for a bail hearing after he appeared in person in Terrace provincial

court April 1.The courtroom was packed

with close to 30 people in what was scheduled to be a bail hear-ing but was put over to give newly retained defence lawyer Suzette Narbonne time to re-view the case and speak to her client.

On March 29, Terrace RCMP reported that they, along with the North District Crime Unit, were

investigating a sudden death in Terrace.

Police and other emergen-cy vehicles descended on the 4600 Block of Goulet on the city southside.

A police vehicle remained in front of 4632 Goulet Ave. in the early evening hours and yellow police tape cordoned off the front yard of the residence.

The following day, police

identified the victim as Clif-ford Price, 50, and said that his son Jeremy had been charged with one count of manslaugh-ter.

The charge was later changed to second degree murder.

Police vehicles and yellow police tape remained at the site through March 31.

Jeremy Price is scheduled to appear in court again April 8.

City Centre Mall owner Jerry Minni reviewing the plans for his M Hotel.

Kitimat mall hotel still in the worksBy Cameron OrrTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

KITIMAT - By the end of this year the City Centre Mall should have its new restaurant open, anchored to the planned hotel which should be ready 12 months after construction begins.

Mall owner Jerry Minni showed the Sen-tinel the plans for the building and some of the floor plans last week, following his company receiving the develop-ment permit which sets conditions for how the building will look.

He just needs a con-struction permit now but he said it’s all lin-ing up to begin building this spring. It will only be about two weeks, he anticipates, to get the construction permit and to put the project out to tender.

The hotel will be built between the breezeway where the Salvation Army store was, to where the video store was.

It will be a two sto-rey hotel — three floors

when you include the ground floor where a restaurant will be built — which is short of Minni’s original vision.

“The design is a lit-tle different than the first design we came up with but we sort of jumped the gun a little in the sense that the footings here would only sup-port so much weight,” he said.

Any possible con-struction was also de-layed last year because the mall’s original engi-neering plans were lost to time, meaning extra work had to be done to figure out how much the existing structures could support.

But the new restau-rant should be ready to go by the time the year turns to 2015.

“We’re trying to push to get the roof on, the [restaurant] open by December 31 this year, and then we’ll contin-ue on the inside of the rooms.”

Minni purchased the City Centre Mall in 2006, and had ideas from the start to build a

hotel.He said he began

considering the land where Tim Hortons is now for his hotel, but then decided to build it over the existing mall.

His entire plan for City Centre will cover two phases. By early to mid next year the hotel will be complete, ending phase one.

Phase two will be an upgrade to the mall it-self, inside and outside, and modernizing its look, similar in a way to how Terrace’s mall was recently renovated.

Minni is still sure that the town is in need for more hotel space.

“There’s not a lot of vacancy in Kitimat so I think there’s definitely room for this product,” he said.

He believes his de-velopment will be a wel-come change to Kiti-mat’s downtown.

“Kitimat’s not had a lot of development of this nature in probably 20 years. So it’ll be a nice new fresh look to the downtown core,” he said.

Train traffic turns 100TERRACE - A com-munity party noting the 100th anniversary of train traffic through Terrace is to take place April 13.

Organized by the city’s 100th anniversary celebration committee, the event takes place in front of the George Lit-tle House at the foot of Kalum St.

The actual first date a train belonging to the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway passed through Terrace from the east to Prince Rupert is April 9, 1914.

There’s going to be music, food from the Salvation Army’s mo-bile kitchen and a large 100th anniversary cake.

“We’re going to close off the cul-de-sac right in front of the George Little House

and probably the whole street as well,” says Debbie Letawksi, the manager of the George Little House and a mem-ber of the city’s 100th anniversary celebration

committee.The major feature

of the day for children will be a miniature train belonging to the Prince George Railway and Forestry Museum.

Pacific NorthWest LNG provides update ahead of open housesBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - With the envi-ronmental assessment documenta-tion filed, Pacific NorthWest LNG wants people to know how impor-tant the open houses scheduled for early next week truly are.

The meetings, which will be held on Monday from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Port Edward Communi-ty Centre and Tuesday from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the North Coast Con-vention Centre, are unlike others the company has held before.

“The public involvement to date, the open houses we have had, we have been talking about things we should study and things we need to study ... previous open houses talked about what we might want to look at, this one is talking about what we have done, what we are proposing to do, what the proj-ect is and all of the components. It’s what we have done to avoid,

what we have done to mitigate and, where we can’t mitigate, what we have done to offset or compensate,” explained environ-mental advisor Brian Clark.

“Public input is pretty critical. Some have said ‘you submit-ted, that is it’. No, this is where the public in-volvement is really important. It is critical the public get in be-cause it is their island, their air and their marine environment.”

The filing is for a natural gas liquefaction facility capable of producing 19.2 million tonnes of LNG per year, complete with three LNG storage tanks capable of holding 180,000 cubic metres of LNG, three LNG trains capable of producing 6.4 million tonnes per year, a 2.7 kilometre trestle leading

to the loading berths and gas turbines that produce up to 1,100 Megawatts of elec-trical power. The ter-minal would operate 24 hours per day, 365 days per year.

Another compo-nent of the applica-tion is the creation of a camp for construction workers, which Clark said will provide some amenities while also encouraging people to

make their way into the communi-ty to support local business.

“The camp is on the island and it is being designed for 3,000 to 4,000 people. Some will be there that we feel would be too much of a load on local infrastructure, things like junior medical staff and paramedics. But things like laun-dry, things like recreating, all that will happen in the community,” he

said. “We have heard from Prince

Rupert and Port Edward that they want these workers out in their community spending their time and money.”

As for concerns about fishing vessels and recreational boaters having access to Porpoise Harbour blocked due to movement of the LNG tankers, Clark said that is not the case.

“It is about 30 minute process of the ships coming in and turning around, but that whole time there is no navigational shutdown at all ... if there is another big vessel in the area, those two will stay a cer-tain distance apart by command of the pilot. But there is no restriction on the commercial or recreational passage into Porpoise Harbour,” he said, noting there may be a space restriction around the vessel while it is loading.

“There are some people in the commercial fishing industry who

heard a rumour, but there is no re-striction at all.”

Another concern Clark clari-fied relates to the flare stack, which he said most people won’t see flare up.

“It will be used on an emergen-cy basis, which hopefully is nev-er, and for maintenance reasons it should be blown off several times per year. When that happens there will be notices sent out to the lcoal community saying when it will happen,” he said, noting the flare stack was placed at the south end of the island so it is far from the community.

“There will be a pilot on the whole time, but our technology doesn’t require it to be flaring. That is just so that if there is an emer-gency, you don’t have to run and turn the pilot on ... the pilot light is inside the pipe. You will see a small flame, but it’s not like the candles they have in the Northeast at the drill sites.”

“This is where the public involve-ment is really important.”

Book tour for sailing author

Harcourt rejects party

By Cameron OrrTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

KITIMAT - In 2012 it was a nautical trip through the Great Bear Rainforest, a � rsthand look at the area where tankers are proposed to come and go to support industry, in this case namely the Enbridge Northern Gateway project.

Today, that trip has earned writer and journal-ist Arno Kopecky a Hubert Evans Non-Fiction BC Book Prize nomination.

Kopecky was in Kitimat last weekend on a book tour promoting his book, The Oilman and the Sea: Navigating the Northern Gateway.

He said he was motivated to take on the project of the tour in 2012 because he felt the people who actually lived in the Great Bear Rainforest region were not being represented in the media when peo-ple were talking about projects like Northern Gate-way.

“There’s no roads, one or two airports...so it just seemed like it was this big blank spot on the map of the Northern Gateway debate,” he said.

But Northern Gateway was, in his words, a plot device to shine a light on the geographic area.

“I was trying to tell a great story as well and I

� nd that I’ve fallen into a bit of an activist advocate role here with this book, which I’m happy to take on because I do feel strongly about this issue but I also take some pride in being a writer who can tell a good story.”

He said he’s pleased with the award nomination for his book which validates his writing.

“The people who give these awards, I don’t think they’re out to validate any particular set of politics. They don’t care for Northern Gateway per sé, they like good stories and they like good literature. Hope-fully this award will help me be taken a bit seriously as a writer,” he said.

Kopecky said he planned to also take the oppor-tunity of his visit to apologize to anyone who might have taken an issue with the way they were portrayed in his book.

Some First Nations members, he said, were ap-parently unhappy with his portrayal of them.

“It was certainly not my intention. I did my best to paint First Nations in a sympathetic light that was also honest. I do believe that came across but I also know what it’s like to be written about, that you are defenceless as the subject of a book.”

The book includes the photography of Ilja Herb, who accompanied Kopecky on the original trip.

VICTORIA - Former premier Mike Har-court’s disenchantment with the NDP is a sign of the challenge ahead for the party after last year’s election loss, leadership candidates John Horgan and Mike Farnworth said Tuesday.

Harcourt has let his party membership lapse and gave several inter-views this week to ex-press his disappoint-ment with the NDP’s performance in the 2013 election. Harcourt told the <I>Globe and Mail</I> he is not sure if his decision to quit the party is “a trial sep-aration or a decree ab-solute,” but he won’t be voting in the leadership contest in September.

Horgan said he has spoken with Harcourt in recent weeks about the party’s standing in rural B.C., particular-ly after leader Adrian Dix’s mid-campaign de-cision to oppose the ex-pansion of the Trans-Mountain oil pipeline from northern Alberta to Burnaby.

“The message it sends to me is that I have a lot of work to do,”

Horgan said. “I have a lot of work to convince Mike Harcourt and oth-er New Democrats and all British Columbians that there’s a better way for us to proceed, a bal-anced approach to the economy and the envi-ronment.”

Harcourt, the former Vancouver mayor who served as premier from 1991 to 1996, endorsed Farnworth in the 2011 leadership campaign.

Farnworth said Tuesday he agrees with Harcourt’s criticism, and the struggle to bal-ance resource develop-

ment with environmen-tal concern has a long history in the NDP. It was Harcourt who faced the “war in the woods” in the 1990s over coast-al logging and came up with land use plans that still serve B.C. today, he said.

“I think Mike is say-ing what he thought, and it’s re� ective of the com-ments we heard after the election last May,” Farn-worth said.

NDP members vote this fall on their choice to succeed Dix, with re-sults to be revealed Sept. 28.

WatCo files suit against City of Prince RupertBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - The City of Prince Rupert will once again be heading to court over Watson Island, but this time it is the Watson Island Development Corporation (WatCo) that has filed suit against the city.

Court documents filed by WatCo allege the City of Prince Rupert broke a verbal agreement with the company by seeking another purchaser for the site.

Worse yet, the filing claims, is the decision was made after WatCo had paid the city approximately $2 million for exclusivity rights in relation to the purchase of the former pulp mill site, including a $90,000 payment the previous month, and paid legal and other expenses in reaching a settlement with Sun Wave Forest Products.

“The Defendant Prince Rupert unlawfully in-terfered with the economic interests of the Plaintiff WatCo by intentionally inducing WatCo to make payments to provide continued exclusivity to the De-fendant Prince Rupert when the Defendant Prince Rupert had determined that they would breach their agreement with the Plaintiff WatCo in order to seek other purchasers who might be willing to pay a high-er price than the Plaintiff WatCo, none of whom were entitled to deal with the Defendant Prince Rupert by virtue of the terms of the oral exclusivity agree-ment,” wrote WatCo in the filing, which also claims the city increased the sale price of the site from the agreed upon $5 million to $5.7 million.

The issue surrounding the agreement first arose on Feb. 12 when WatCo alleges the city told them, retroactive to Feb. 1, any negotiations would be con-tinuing on a non-exclusive basis and that the term sheet both had previously agreed to would no longer be acceptable.

That same day the city offered the company terms by which it was prepared to conclude a deal with WatCo, terms WatCo accepted and used to form

a new term sheet that was delivered to the city. How-ever, WatCo alleges the city “has failed or refused to execute the term sheet”. WatCo said it provided an executed copy of an option agreement on the site on Feb. 25, but the city has failed or refused to execute the option agreement.

“WatCo remains ready, willing and able to com-plete the purchase of the Watson Island property ... the Plaintiff WatCo demanded that the Defendant Prince Rupert complete the purchase and sale of the Watson Island property. The Defendant has refused or neglected to do so,” reads the filing.

“The acts of the Defendant Prince Rupert were deliberate, with the knowledge that they were in-consistent with its contractual obligations, and with knowledge of reckless indifference to the fact that its conduct would injure the Plaintiff WatCo.”

WatCo is now seeking “performance of the op-tion agreement to obtain the conveyance of the Wat-son Island property” to the company. If that is not accepted, the company is seeking damages in lieu or a ruling that “the Watson Island property is held in trust by the Defendant Prince Rupert for the benefit of the Plaintiff WatCo”.

As well, WatCo has filed a Certificate of Pending Litigation on the site and is seeking an injunction to prevent the city from entering into any agreements with other parties or otherwise disposing of Watson Island.

Prince Rupert Mayor Jack Mussallem said he would not comment on the filing as he does not com-ment on matters before the court, but said Watson Is-land is very much top of mind for the city.

“It is city council’s number one priority for the strategic plan for 2014 to get Watson Island back on the tax roll and creating employment for people in the region,” he said.

Pacific NorthWest LNG Ltd. proposes to construct and operate a liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility and marine terminal near Prince Rupert, within the District of Port Edward. The Pacific NorthWest LNG facility would be located on Lelu Island. The proposed project would convert natural gas to LNG for export to Pacific Rim markets in Asia.

The Pacific NorthWest LNG Project is subject to review under both the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, 2012 (CEAA 2012) and B.C.’s Environmental Assessment Act and is undergoing a coordinated environmental assessment process.

Public Comment Period

The Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency (the Agency) and B.C.’s Environmental Assessment Office (EAO) are inviting the public to comment on the ongoing environmental assessment of the Pacific NorthWest LNG Project. The Proponent has recently submitted its Application / Environmental Impact Statement (Application / EIS) which describes the project and the potential environmental, heritage, health, social, and economic effects of all phases of the project.

The Application / EIS, as well as a summary of the document and additional information regarding the environmental assessment process are available online at www.ceaa-acee.gc.ca and at www.eao.gov.bc.ca.

Prince Rupert continues to be hotspot for Kaijudo playersContributedTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - Prince Rupert’s Good Times Games continues to be recognized globally as the “prom-ised land” for its Kaijudo Collectable Card Game.

This past weekend the shop host-ed its third Kaijudo Master Chal-lenge, an honor awarded to only one other store in North America to date. Again the little shop on the North Coast came up big, breaking its own record for KMC attendance.

“It is crazy to think that Prince Rupert is known as the best place to play Kaijudo in the world” men-

tioned Good Times co-owner Rob Gruber.

The shop had players come all the way from New York, Seattle and Victoria BC to play in the KMC Qualifier this time out. “People just want to play here, why play at an av-erage location when you can make it a journey, and come here to play at North America’s best location” Gru-ber commented.

The event drew 84 registered players, of which 79 played through seven rounds of head to head compe-tition, then cut to a top 8 finals. In the end it was local player Kevin Win-ther who ended up claiming the top spot, and his brother, Tyler Winther

(a repeat KMC Champion at Good Times) claiming second place. Both boys and family will be joining Gru-ber and Ryan Last as they head to the Kaijudo World Championships in Se-attle this coming June.

“It was a fantastic event, we had prizes for everyone who played” add-ed Rob, who mentioned the company that manufactures Kaijudo provided a custom play mat, booster packs and foil promos to go with the prizes.

The event had boys, girls and adults as young as 4 years old play-ing. The game also takes place week-ly at Good Times. Anyone interest-ed in finding out more is welcome to stop in anytime and check it out.

A guide to the process for Kitimat’s April 12 plebisciteBy Cameron OrrTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

KITIMAT - The upcoming plebiscite for Kitimatians to decide whether or not they accept the Joint Review Pan-el’s 209 conditions for the proposed Northern Gateway Pipelines proposal will be slightly relaxed from how an official election is conducted.

The differences between a real election and this plebi-scite comes down to the fact that you have to have been a

resident of Kitimat for only 30 days before you’d be al-lowed to vote, and you also do not have to be a Canadian citizen.

In questioning council-lors on the specifics, Douglas Channel Watch representa-tive Murray Minchin said the Canadian citizenship require-ment is beneficial to some in Kitimat. He said there are many people in town who do not have a Canadian citizen-ship but who’d be allowed to vote this time. They discov-

ered that when they had gone door-to-door.

As for how voting will play out, the District of Kit-imat’s returning officers will have a voter list of residents and you will sign your name on the form to prove you had voted.

Deputy Municipal Clerk Shirley Boudreault explained the process at the March 24 committee of the whole meeting.

In the case you’re not on a voters list, you’ll have to

produce identification show-ing that you have a primary address in Kitimat. An ad-dress showing you live in a work camp will not satisfy the requirements of Kitimat being a permanent residence.

In the absence of any identification, potential vot-ers will be asked a series of questions to determine their eligibility.

Chief Administrative Of-ficer Ron Poole admitted that there is always a potential for some people to commit voter

fraud, but much in the same way the same opportunity ex-ists in municipal and provin-cial elections. There is an ele-ment of trust that comes into play.

During the count of the ballots, scrutineers have been appointed to watch over the process. An invitation to the community was made for the positions, and three people representing the “yes” vote to the question came forward immediately.

Boudreault said that the

District went to people who were known to represent the “no” vote and invited them to apply to be scrutineers as well, to ensure both sides were represented.

Six scrutineers have now been appointed in total, three representing each side of the vote.

April 9 will be the next advance poll, at the Tamitik sports complex. Itwill run from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

The main voting day is April 12.

B.C. signs on for federal training programBy Tom FletcherTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

OTTAWA - B.C. has signed on to the federal government’s program to match skills training with employers’ needs, after negotiations to maintain most of the ex-isting programs to assist older and disadvantaged people.

B.C. Jobs Minis-ter Shirley Bond signed onto the Canada Job Grant program in Otta-wa Monday, as provinc-es and territories agreed to a program that re-quires employers to put up a third of training

costs. Once the program takes effect, the fed-eral share will be up to $10,000 per trainee with another $5,000 from a sponsoring employer.

Federal Employ-ment Minister Kenney said the new program will address the need for thousands of skilled workers to develop liq-uefied natural gas plants, pipelines and other proj-ects in B.C.

There is no general labour shortage in Can-ada, but the $900 mil-lion a year the federal government spends on post-secondary training needs to match up better

with the available jobs, he said.

“So we need to re-engineer our education system,” Kenney said. “B.C. has taken the lead on this, to prepare young people for the jobs of the future, to educate them for the labour market.”

The agreement means B.C. will use 40% of Ottawa’s $65 million annual skills training transfer for the new program.

“We very much sup-port the concept of em-ployer-led and driven employment programs, and I think that’s actu-ally where we ended

up with the Canada Job Grant file,” Bond said.

B.C. objected to the program initially, be-cause it would have tak-en federal money away from existing training programs for disadvan-taged groups. Kenney said the amended deal allows 90 per cent of B.C.’s training programs to carry on.

One of those is a 2007 federal-provincial program for workers aged 55 to 64 in com-munities with fewer than 250,000 people that have high unemploy-ment or closure of em-ployers.

NDP MLA calls for immediate skills training in the northwestVICTORIA - Skeena NDP MLA Robin Austin gave a private member’s statement on the need for skills training as soon as possible in the BC legislature to-day, March 31.

Although the “bedrock” of building a new in-dustry in the province is a skilled workforce, North-west Community College, which should be the cen-tre of skills training for all of the proposed projects “has been woefully under-resourced for a number of years now,” said Austin.

Colleges have not received enough money for operating costs and now they’re being asked to cut their budgets.

“I suspect the government speaker on this topic will talk mightily about capital funding, but it needs to be understood that buildings don’t train workers. Instructors train workers, and even they can’t do that without prosaic things like heat and electricity, which is why the $40 million in cuts to B.C. colleges and universities are so concerning,” he said.

The rate of unemployment and underemploy-

ment is unacceptable – Austin represents some com-munities in the northwest that have 50 per cent un-employment rates or more – and yet, planeloads of outside workers are coming in to fill jobs that local people haven’t been trained for, he said.

“The single biggest thing we could do to send a strong message to the LNG industry that we are open for business would be to immediately begin provid-ing low-barrier opportunities to underemployed and unemployed workers in the northwest, to improve their skills,” he said.

For the full transcript of Austin’s statement, go to www.leg.bc.ca/hansard/40th2nd/20140331am-House-Blues.htm.

Notice to Gitga’at MembersB.C. not ready for major quakeBy Martina PerryTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - A government report released on March 24 states that B.C. is simply not ready for a major earthquake.

B.C. auditor general Russ Jones penned Cat-astrophic Earthquake Preparedness, which found that Emergency Management BC (EMBC), the organization responsible for emergency response in the province, isn’t prepared for a disastrous earthquake.

The audit also found the province and EMBC haven’t made preparing for a quake a priority. A similar conclusion was made by the same office in a 1997 report on emergency management, with Jones claiming EMBC has not made significant progress since. EMBC’s operating budget for emergency activities is currently approximately $6.2 million, the same amount provided to PEP in 2006.

“Successive governments have decided to al-locate scarce public resources to meet more im-mediate pressing demands, rather than to ad-equately prepare the province for a catastrophic earthquake that may or may not occurs,” said Jones.

“EMBC staff is busy with daily emergencies such as floods and fires, so catastrophic earth-quake planning is done as a side-of-desk activ-ity.”

The report outlines several areas in need of improvement in EMBC’s preparedness, from risk analysis, to training and public education and from plans and procedures to integration of stakeholders.

The report states that EMBC is lacking crit-ical positions, such as a logistics planner, which constrains the organization’s ability to deliver on its catastrophic earthquake mandate.

“EMBC could improve its catastrophic earthquake planning by applying a more rigor-ous management framework to identify and help achieve its desired results,” reads the report.

The report recommended the provincial gov-ernment develop long-term goals for earthquake preparedness, and ensure EMBC has the capac-ity to address gaps. It advised EMBC to develop a strategic plan to meet the province’s goals, as well as identify, rank and prioritize its own plans to make sure it’s prepared for the big one.

The report also suggested EMBC review its earthquake program to determine gaps and risks to come up with actions to address them.

Other recommendations include how EMBC should work with stakeholders in reviewing and evaluating their emergency plans and conduct-ing exercises to ensure they can deliver proper re-sponse.

The final recommendation in the audit was to report on the state of catastrophic earthquake preparedness annually.

Unlike many British Columbia communities, Prince Rupert was prepared during the October 2012 and January 2013 earthquakes and follow-

ing tsunami scares. Fire chief Dave Mckenzie, who is responsible for Prince Rupert’s emergency plan, didn’t wait to hear from the provincial gov-ernment or EMBC before putting the plan into action. Mckenzie said the report will help other British Columbian communities be as prepared as Prince Rupert for major earthquakes.

“The government recognizes there is a prob-lem and is trying to resolve how to deal with it to get prepared,” he said.

“It’s a step in the right direction. Earthquakes aren’t going away, so it’s a good thing the govern-ment is stepping up to the plate to make people more aware.”

The B.C. government will take immedi-ate action on all of the recommendations, with EMBC already developing a long-term plan that sets provincial goals and a phased approach to achieving them.

“A tough report offers a great opportuni-ty and this one in particular will help us con-tinue to identify what work needs to be done to best prepare B.C. communities and fami-lies for a major earthquake,” said Suzanne Anton, attorney general and minister of justice.

Mckenzie said people need to be ready to be self-sufficient for 72 hours in case of a ma-jor earthquake, and should have food, beverag-es, clothing, cash, batteries and other items in an earthquake kit.

northwestRupert condo plans moving aheadBy Shaun TomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - Prince Rupert Living Concepts is one step closer to making its proposed condominium de-velopment at the end of Graham Ave. a reality after council voted to rezone the necessary land.

However, those living in the area do have concerns about what the three-story, 11 unit complex means for Atlin and Graham Ave. In speaking to coun-cil during the public hearing on the matter, city planner Zeno Krekic said he had one person very opposed to the project due to traffic concerns and an-other opposed due to issues surround-ing the impact to water pressure in the area, the sewer capacity of the area and influx of traffic.

While Krekic said the engineering department had confirmed adequate water pressure and sewer capacity to support the additional housing, some of those sentiments were echoed by resident Helen Moore, who spoke with a number of her neighbours about the idea.

“If the proposal was to go ahead, traffic is certainly the biggest con-cern ... some have suggested mak-ing Graham Ave. a 30 kilometre per hour zone, others thought there should be a stop sign at Van Arsdol and 17th Street and some have suggested speed bumps,” she told council, noting reac-tion to the proposal was mixed among those she spoke to.

“If the proposal was to go through, either the city or the developer needs to be taken to task to ensure traffic safety is addressed.”

But with the condominiums pro-posed for seniors and those with dis-abilities, project manager Kevin New-ton said he didn’t foresee much of an increase in the number of vehicles making their way up and down the street throughout the day.

“The majority of seniors will go to one place and stay there because get-ting up and down and moving around a lot can be a challenge,” he said.

“Going downtown and back four or five times per day is unlikely to hap-pen with the seniors living there.”

Prince Rupert Living Concepts still needs to apply for a subdivision permit, but a building permit associ-ated with the site estimates the value of construction to be $5 million.

Snowmobiler and Winter Recreation Users Public Safety Notice

Snowmobilers and winter recreationalists (cross country skiers, snow shoers, etc.) should be aware that the Northwest Transmission Line (NTL) is under construction, and the NTL right-of-way remains a construction zone with restricted access. This is required to avoid safety risks associated with such things as unmarked guy lines, construction materials and other potential hazards along the right-of-way, as well as for public and worker safety as construction activities continue.

In particular, over the past year many of the transmission structures for the NTL project have been installed. Most of these structures are supported by currently unmarked guy lines which can be very difficult to see against a snow background.

Please avoid using the right-of-way for your activities. If you are in the area, take extra care when travelling in the vicinity of the transmission structures.

If you have any questions, please contact BC Hydro stakeholder engagement: 1 866 647 3334 or send an email to [email protected]

City prepares for work campsTERRACE - The city is preparing a bylaw amendment to allow for the housing of as many as 3,000 workers at the Skeena Industrial Development Park south of town.

It will allow a company called Falcon Camp Services to set up a camp on industrial park land it has purchased from the Kitselas Development Corporation. The corporation, in turn, purchased the land from the city last month.

The bylaw amendment, intro-duced March 24, alters the official community plan and several stip-ulations relating to the original heavy industrial zoning to allow for the work camp.

Falcon Camp Services from Prince George would build a 200-400 person camp for work-ers on the Pacific Trails Pipeline that would carry natural gas to the planned Kitimat LNG (liquefied natural gas) plant at Kitimat.

This first camp will be fully operational by June 30 and Pacific Trails has said it could need space for up to 1,500 to 3,000 workers at peak production and is negoti-ating the purchase of more land

from the Kitselas.Contained within the new by-

law are conditions for fees to be paid to the city if there are more than 500 people staying on the site. The fees start at $500 per per-son for numbers of workers above that 500 mark and the cost rises incrementally to a maximum of $1,000 per sleeping unit.

Any extra money levied through these fees will go toward an affordable housing fund.

Mayor David Pernarowski said that work camps will only be contained on the Kitselas-owned land and that council would not allow another work camp outside of this area.

The land bought by the Kitse-las corporation is across Hwy16 from the main industrial park area.

Councillor Marylin Davies was the only council member to vote against the resolution.

She said rezoning the indus-trial lands went against the origi-nal vision that the city had for the land with long term industrial de-velopment in mind.

Councillor Brian Downie had

some concerns about the long time frame of the amendment as it will allow work camps in the in-dustrial park for 20 years.

Councillor Bruce Bidgood said he would only support the amendment with the assurance from staff in the form of a cov-enant that the time limit would be set as well as the relegation of camps to only the industrial park lands.

“I worry about the precedent-setting nature of this bylaw,” said Bidgood.

Before the changes are adopt-ed, the amendments of the OCP and zoning bylaw still need to go to public hearing.

Kitimat LNG does have envi-ronmental and regulatory approv-als to start construction but an in-vestment decision by its owners has yet to be made although one is expected later this year. Apache has, however, said it wants to sell some of its ownership position because of engineering and de-sign costs which this year could reach $1 billion even without an investment decision being made.

Terrace chamber board officially supports EnbridgeTERRACE - The board of the Terrace and District Chamber of Commerce says it now official-ly supports Enbridge’s planned Northern Gateway pipeline proj-ect.

That’s after a small majority of chamber members who filled out an online survey about the pipeline project – 51.3 per cent – say they are in support.

“The board is the voice of the members and we represent the members,” said chamber presi-dent Janice Shaben.

Of those who took part in the

survey, 62.1 per cent feel the pipeline will benefit their busi-ness. The results come from a March 5 to March 19 online sur-vey in which chamber members were asked 11 questions sur-rounding the Northern Gateway project.

Of the nearly 290 members of the chamber, approximately one in seven – or approximately 40 members – filled out the survey, a chamber press release indicated March 27. The original plan was to only release the survey results if more than 50 per cent of cham-

ber members responded.But that changed after the

chamber board was told the num-ber of members who replied ful-filled a statistical requirement for a representative sample, she said.

“We were told that the statis-tical sample was good.”

From that, the board has now adopted the position that it sup-ports the Northern Gateway proj-ect, she said. Shaben did add that the Northern Gateway project re-mains a challenging topic.

“It’s such an emotional issue for so many people,” she said.

This orange and white tabby is Fynn. He's an intact male, approximately one year old, and is very friendly. He loves people, is okay with some cats, and should handle � ne around dogs too.

“We’re saying NO to Enbridge on April 12th.” – Vollrath Family, Kitimat Residents


City asks province to help with airportBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - The City of Prince Ru-pert will be pushing for the provincial govern-ment to take over main-tenance of the airport access road, and pos-sibly the ferry, but the Ministry of Transporta-tion says it has no inten-tion of doing so.

The issue was brought forward at the March 24 council meet-ing by former mayor Don Scott, who said the province needs to be more involved as it is in other communi-ties.

“What, if anything, are staff and council do-ing to cover the cost of the ferry service? The province, I believe, has legislation saying access to airports is provincial jurisdiction,” he said.

“Right now we’re taking responsibility, but it is theirs. Is there no le-gal steps we can take ... I think it is important to take another look at it. Others have their access taken care of while we do not.”

Noting the province did provide money for the Tsimshian Peninsu-

la Access Project, which would move the ferry terminal to the lower end of Digby Island and cut sailing time by ap-proximately 10 minutes, Mayor Jack Mussal-lem said they have had a similar discussion with the government.

“The province has disputed that ... they re-fuse to take any own-ership of that road,” he said.

In an email to the Northern View, Min-istry of Transportation spokesperson Robert

Adam said all responsi-bility for the airport falls to the city.

“The airport is a pri-vate facility owned and operated by the City of Prince Rupert through the Prince Rupert Air-port Authority (PRAA),” he explained, noting past transactions also put the road in the city’s juris-diction.

“The 4.8 kilometre access road connecting Tobey point (ferry land-ing) to the airport was built under federal ju-risdiction between 1957

and 1959, and began operating under the ju-risdiction of Transport Canada in 1961 ... the airport was transferred from Transport Canada to the PRAA in 1997; the City of Prince Ru-pert owns the airport through the incorpora-tion of the PRAA.”

Regardless, council passed a motion to write the ministry a letter re-questing they take over the road maintenance and potentially the cost of running the Digby Is-land ferry.

Olive Arleigh Slanina(nee Fitzgerald)

December 27, 1936 - April 6, 2010

“Live, Laugh,Love.

Everyday.”

Loved and missed dearly Paul, Simon, Veronica, Rachel, Carrie and families.

Richard passed away peacefully, comforted by his wife, on February 18, 2014 at the

Grey Nuns Hospital in Edmonton, AB at the age of 73.Richard was born in Calgary Alberta on April 3, 1940 to Sarah Annie and John Cloakey of Black Diamond,

Alberta. He grew up on the farm at Black Diamond with his brothers

Robert and Larry. He worked mostly in Northern BC, mining asbestos, copper, coal

and fi nally as owner of the Crooked Creek Store and Post Offi ce in Alberta.Richard loved his many family pets, especially dogs Skye and Spinner, and Baby and Streak, the cats. He enjoyed wildlife and the outdoors all his life. Richard told many stories about living and working in Cassiar, Granisle, Kemano, and Tumbler Ridge, BC. Most of all he enjoyed time spent with family and his many friends.Richard was predeceased by his parents and brothers. Richard is survived by his wife Vickie and children Elizabeth (Gord Klassen), John (Vicki), Joyce, step-children David Neraasen (Stephanie) and Lisa Neraasen (Jose) and by his grandsons Ian, Alex, Ryan and Luke, his niece Lori and grandnephew TJ. Richard leaves many friends who will miss him, especially Dane and Ruby Mortensen, Ashley and Alyssa, his good buddy Paul Kyle and old friend Jim Penman.The family would like to express our thanks to the Doctors and Nurses of the ICU at the Grey Nuns Hospital in Edmonton for the care and kindness showed Richard and all of us during his time there.

A celebration of Richard’s life is planned in July.Please contact the family for details.

Richard James CloakeyApril 3, 1940 to February 18, 2014

Eleanor ‘Ena’ Ekman June 17 1922 - March 23 2014

In the early hours of March 23rd our beloved Mom left her earthly life behind to go sing with the angels.

Ena was born in Edmonton, England. In the 1940’s she joined the British Air Force where she met her husband Jack Ekman who was a member of the Canadian Armed Forces. They were married in 1945 in England after the war ended and Ena came to Canada as a war bride, travelling by boat and train to Telkwa where she was able to start a new life with Jack. She wasn’t quite prepared for life in their first home which was log cabin in the wilderness, especially after growing up in a big city, but she adapted and raised four children while in the Smithers area. Later Jack and Ena moved to Prince Rupert for work and then Quesnel, finally retiring to Nanaimo. After retirement they spent many summers camping in their fifth-wheel, going to visit family and friends. After Jack passed away, Ena moved back to Prince Rupert to be closer to family.

Ena leaves behind a lifetime of cherished memories for her children Eric (Lindy) Ekman, Jackie (Dave) Wilson, Elaine (Larry) Lohnes, Christina (Gerry) Norton, her grandchildren Aaron and Jamie Ekman, Kristen Kerr, Rob Wilson, and Amie and Cara Norton, Dione Bree, and great grandchildren Evan Ford and Ty Bree.

Ena was predeceased by her husband of 60 years, Jack, her sister Kathleen, and brothers Horace and John.

Ena loved music and was known for her singing throughout the halls of Acropolis manor. When she would forget the words she would improvise with amazing results. We would like to thank the wonderful Acropolis staff and Dr. Tse for all the great care they provided for Mom. A heartfelt thank you to the staff that was with us during Mom’s last days. Your kindness and compassion and humorous stories of Mom were of great comfort.

A graveside service will be held in Smithers in August when Ena’s ashes will be buried beside her beloved husband Jack.

“We have plans to build a safer, better pipeline. We also have plans

to operate it that way.”Janet Holder, Leader of Northern Gateway

I’m Janet Holder, leader of Northern Gateway. Of the 209 conditions set by the Joint Review Panel, over 60 deal specifi cally with land safety and related environmental safeguards.

EXCEEDING EXPECTATIONS

We are working on those conditions with the same diligence that we are applying to the tough conditions mandated by the Province. In many cases, these conditions refl ect the world class voluntary land safety measures that Northern Gateway proposed during the Review process.

A BETTER, SAFER PIPELINE

Our land safety measures primarily focus on spill prevention. With new standards in pipeline design and integrity, construction, monitoring and project management, we want to build a better, safer pipeline.

A RESPECTFUL ROUTE

After a decade of planning, we have mapped out a pipeline route that will have as little

impact as possible on British Columbia’s terrain and neighbouring communities. In fact, 70% of the route utilizes previously disturbed lands, including old forestry roads, cut blocks and other disturbances.

A WATCHFUL EYE

We are equally committed to setting new standards when it comes to Emergency Preparedness and Response. In fact, JRP Conditions #174 and #175 require us to fi le separate emergency response plans for every 10-km section of pipe. That’s over 110 separate plans that include details covering specifi c habitat to protect. Our plans also include realistic training programs and exercises, staffi ng of all pump stations, 24/7 monitoring, advanced leak detection systems and more remotely-controlled isolation valves. We’re doing all this hard work because we are committed to developing the most sound, sensible and sensitive approach to designing, constructing and operating the Project.

Slubowski shines against NCAA’s bestBy Kevin CampbellTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - Ask Western Michigan Broncos’ goaltender Frank Slubowski what the biggest difference is playing in the team’s new higher-tiered NCAA division and his � rst answer isn’t the skill level.

“Longer road trips,” the Rupertite sighed over the phone.

Indeed, anyone who’s ever played minor and school sports can relate to Slubowski’s claustrophobic bus rides.

Though the stiff competition does come to mind in NCAA’s Division 1, even if after the sore bottom.

“I’d say it’s a lot more skill throughout the four lines,” said the third-year.

“It’s a really competitive league.”Slubowski’s Broncos were elevated to

the National Collegiate Hockey Conference (NCHC) after their old conference was dis-banded thanks to a re-alignment of the divi-sions.

WMU’s new NCHC division features the deadly University of North Dakota, which has won seven national championships, most re-cently in 2000.

The division also hosts the University of Denver, the guilty culprits who eliminated the Broncos from playoff contention in 2014.

That loss to the Denver Pioneers stung. “It was a tough one,” said Slubowski. “It

was back and forth the whole game, and then the last goal that they scored late in the third (period) was tough. (The puck) took a bad bounce off a defenceman and it was kind of a breakaway there, so a bit of a heartbreaker.”

Slubowski stopped 19 shots in that game, but it was timely scoring that propelled the Pi-

oneers over Slubowski’s Broncos, 4-3.The Broncos � nished tied for fourth in the

NCHC with a 19-16-5 record. “I think some of the pre-season polls put

us last in this conference so it was a big step for us to come out with the season we had even though we didn’t get the � nish we want-ed,” said Slubowski.

Slubowski won 10 of those games, which was a drop off from last year, but last year the

goalie played every single game, which is ex-tremely uncommon.

“(Our other goalie) Lukas Hafner battled and worked hard all summer, so he deserved to play. And it’s good for a team to have to have two goalies who can go,” said Slubows-ki. “It’s only to our advantage.”

Coached by the tenured Andy Murray, the veteran bench boss of 10 NHL seasons, Slubowski has thrived at WMU.

“I think I’ve always known I wanted to go the college route,” said Slubowski.

“As a goalie, just playing more years of hockey will give me a better chance of play-ing pro hockey,” said Slubowski, who will look for an NHL contract this year while also returning to the North Coast.

“I’ll probably go back home for a lit-tle break (this summer). The � shing’s better there.”

The Marlin swimmers with their medals from a Smithers regional swim meet.

Marlins stand out in SmithersContributedTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

KITIMAT - The Kiti-mat Marlins attended the Smithers regional swim meet with a small group of swimmers but had some great individual re-sults from all.

Olivia Pearson (9) took the silver medal for overall points in the 10 and under girls division.

Ewan Thomopou-los (10) took the bronze medal in the 10 and under boys division.

In the 11-12 age groups Hannah Pearson (11) took the bronze med-al for the girls while Ga-briel Lamarre (12) took the bronze for the boys.

Kleanza Cathers (14) also took the silver for the 13-14 girls.

Making the largest one swim improvement for the Marlins at the meet was Laurence Bouchier (13) with a 30 second im-provement in her 200 me-ter backstroke.

Atlantis Taekwondo hosts northwest champsContributedTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

TERRACE - Clubs from all over the north west came to show off their martial art skills March 15 in Ter-race, with Atlantis Taekwondo host-ing its second northwest B.C. cham-pionships.

Cody Skog, instructor of Atlantis Taekwondo, says he was very happy with the attendance and skill levels from all the clubs.

“A big thank you to all the volun-teers that made the tournament a suc-cess,” said Skog.

The tournament started with a competition amongst the shadow warriors – three- to � ve-year-olds who are “hilarious and super awe-some,” said Skog. The shadow war-riors competed on a timed “death de-fying” obstacle course.

After the shadow warriors, the tournament went into sparring and patterns from white to black belts of all ages.

The tournaments largest division was teen red and black belts boys, and the matches were very exciting to watch, he said, noting he hopes

to see more spectators out next year. Next spring Atlantis Taekwondo is going to host a black belt tourna-ment, with Skog hand selecting the best � ghters in Canada.

“I also would like to thank Mr. John Hooge for ref� ng,” said Skog, noting Hooge recently achieved his 3rd degree black belt.
