Market proposals due soonErin CardoneNews staff

Just days remain before the request for proposals for the Sidney summer market closes.

Proposals are due to the town by 3 p.m. Monday, May 7. With the market’s original organizer, the Sidney Business Association, ousted by the town from managing the event, the popular market’s future remains unclear.

“The issue around the market had to do with the process of mediation and the reac-tion and conduct of the SBA through that process,” Mayor Larry Cross told the News Review on Wednesday.

Dozens of comments appeared on the paper’s website in response to the latest developments surrounding the market.

The town echoed some of those concerns. Randy Humble, Sidney’s chief administra-tive officer, confirmed the town has never received an audited financial statement from the SBA, for example.

“We did everything by the rules,” SBA president Edward Connor said.

Sidney’s mayor and council terminated the SBA’s contract to run the market on April 23, citing a breach of trust. The SBA coun-tered with a letter from their lawyer to the town.

“It’s a culmination of things,” Humble said. “I think the town has lost a high level of trust in the SBA to run the market.”

POLICE NEWSIN BRIEF

Swerving driver nabbed by cops

A Central Saanich woman faces possible impaired charges after being nabbed by police on Wal-lace Drive on Tuesday.

Police got a call of a possible impaired driver headed north-bound in the 7000 block of Wal-lace around 8 p.m.

Witnesses followed the vehicle that was being driven erratically. When officers stopped the vehi-cle, they noted a smell of alcohol.

After failing a roadside screen-ing, the driver was taken back to the station and impaired driv-ing charges were recommended against her.

Man attacked with shelving

A 23-year-old Saanich man faces a charge of assault causing bodily harm after Victoria police say he entered a home and struck a 21-year-old Central Saanich man in the head with a piece of wood Saturday.

“The assailant and the victim were known to each other and had been in some form of argument earlier in the evening,” Victoria police spokesperson Mike Tucker said of the attack which happened in the 600 block of Linden Avenue in Fairfield.

The suspect was later arrested in Saanich.

The stench of sewage wafted across the Trans-Canada Highway Wednesday afternoon after a sep-tic truck travelling northbound lost control and barrel-rolled across the highway, landing upside down near the road shoulder.

No other vehicles were involved and the driver of the truck walked away unscathed from the accident, which happened just after noon. Police say about 800 gallons of sew-

age leak from the tanker, some into Thetis Lake Park by the edge of the highway.

West Shore RCMP spokesper-son Cpl. Kathy Rochlitz said that the truck changed lanes from the centre lane to the outside passing lane just past the Colwood exit, and caught the side of the ditch, which sent the truck out of control.

The exact cause of the accident is under investigation. Rochlitz said that there didn’t appear to be any evidence of drugs or alcohol.

Marlene Dergousoff set to retire after 41 yearsChristine van ReeuwykNews staff

After more than four decades in education, Mar-lene Dergousoff will retire this summer.

“I’m as excited about education today as I was 41 years ago,” she said with a smile. “I’m so hope-ful for education in B.C. … We’ll get through these things because the kids need to be taught.”

As retirement beckons, she reckons the biggest change in education to date is a mind game.

“We now truly believe that all kids belong in the classroom and all kids can learn,” she said. “We know so much more about how the brain works and how we learn.”

Dergousoff, following in her mother’s footsteps, started her career in 1970 in a Grade 2 portable at Ladysmith primary. Three years later she became head teacher at nearby two-room school Diamond elemen-tary teaching grades 1, 2 and 3. After six years in the classroom, Dergousoff became a district primary helping teacher aiding in development of curriculum, leading workshops and connecting with leaders in primary education.

Dergousoff returned to the classroom as an inter-mediate teacher, and at 31 she became the princi-pal of Bayview elementary for five years before transferring to Harewood elementary.

In 1989 she joined the Ministry of Education’s primary program team.

It was a high point in her career.

“That was instrumental in helping develop pri-mary education. … It’s had a long term effect,” she said. Dergousoff was also involved in the revision of the program in 2000. “It was a team of people who did it and working together is always better.”

In 1994, Dergousoff joined the Saanich school district. Over the next 11 years she served as principal at Durrance and Brentwood elemen-tary schools, as well as Bayside. In 2005, she was appointed as the assistant superintendent responsible for student services, First Nations, elementary programs and early learning, where she continued work within her motto of “together for children.”

“Think about the child at the centre and make decisions,” she explained.

Her proudest achievements all come from col-laborative efforts with the “child at the centre,” including the development and implementa-tion of the First Nations enhance-ment agreement; restorative practices; the strong commit-ment to embrace diversity and to believe that all children can learn and all children belong and the work around early learning. Her

career is topped by the full implementation of all day kindergarten.

With retirement looming, many people are seek-ing her skills in a volunteer aspect, but Dergousoff is careful about not becoming too busy in her post-career work.

“I want to do some volunteer work. … I want to give back, but I’m not sure yet what that will be,” she said. “I figure every job I’ve had has been my favourite job until I got another. [So] it won’t mat-ter what I do, it’ll be the best job.”

[email protected]


Marlene Dergousoff’s long-standing motto is ‘together for children.’ She’ll retire from her role as assistant superintendent with the Saanich school district this summer after four decades in public education.

“I’m as excited about education today as I was 41 years ago.”

Construction this year on Canora Road section of paved walking/cycling trail

Christine van ReeuwykNews staff

Backhoes and dump trucks working feverishly along Willingdon Road mark a goal within reach for the Victoria Airport Authority.

“It was always our intention to put, in stages, a path around the airport as an amenity for the pub-lic,” said Terry Stewart director of marketing and community relations for VAA. “This is just one ele-ment of our commitment to the environment.”

The separated cycling/pedestrian path along Mills Road, finished a few years ago, was a start of the dream that will be complete next year – a 9.3 kilometre loop around the airport. It’s as simple as being a part of the community, and the environ-mental plan for the airport.

“This section here has always been dangerous,” Stewart said, gesturing to the narrow path inches from the travel lane near the Sidney North Saanich

Little League fields on Canora Road. That section is slated for completion this year. “This is going to be a huge benefit for kids to ride their bikes to the Field of Dreams.”

The paved path will be separated for safety of users along the entire route and by the end of next year will connect with both Sidney and the regional Lochside trail once complete.

“We want it separated because it’s safer,” said Stewart, who envisions commuters and parents with strollers commingling on the three-metre wide paths. “It’s the community’s airport.”

MIIFormer tennis pro to Rally for Kids

Erin CardoneNews staff

A former tennis pro and world #1 doubles player takes to the court next week to ben-efit kids with disabili-ties.

Grant Connell, who held the #1 ranking as a doubles player in the early 1990s, will play along with other big names in tennis at the second Rally for the Kids, at Panorama Rec-reation Centre, Wednes-day, May 9.

“We are a smaller venue but the thing is … this is something that’s quite out of the ordinary of what we do day to day. We’re very

fortunate we can have a player of Grant’s qual-ity come out,” said Eric Knoester, the racquet sports co-ordinator at Panorama who started the event last year. Grant is at “another level in terms of ability. He was a consummate professional when he was out there to get ready to play. You know what kind of dedication that takes.

Former 49th-ranked woman player, Marjorie Blackwood, is return-ing for the second year, along with former national champion Rob-ert Bettauer and Island talents Roger Skill-ings, Tracy Frank, Art Hobbs, Ranjan MacAr-thur, Greg Diemer and Hannes Blum.

Like last year, the rally benefits the Power to Be Society, partly because of Knoester’s personal connection to the group.

Two years ago, he took his daughter Han-nah, now 17, to Tillicum mall for her ski trip to Mount Washington. Hannah has autism talking about different and exciting activities like skiing opened up communication for the family.

A Power to Be van drove Hannah to the mountain.

“I thought, in order to do these programs they must have to raise money,” Knoester said.

Power to Be takes kids with disabilities or socio-economic barri-ers on outdoor adven-tures.

In 2011, Rally for the Kids raised $9,500 for Power to Be. This year’s goal is $12,000 to $13,000.

“Of course the whole tennis community and community as a whole got on board with the event last year,”

Knoester said. “This year’s been really easy in terms of ticket sales because of what hap-pened last year.”

The rally offers twice as many silent auction items as last year.

“We are able to accom-plish more with the things that happened with last year’s event. It opened a lot of doors for us, [like] Power to Be opens doors for the kids. There’s a parallel there.”

Civil forfeiture muddies message

A message needs to be sent that it is not OK to drive so dangerously that you create a very real risk to the lives of innocent people. And it’s morally indefensible to celebrate such an act of stupidity by posting a video of it to the Internet.

But the punishment must fit the crime.We can all agree that the motorcyclist who

on April 6 video-recorded himself or herself travelling at speeds of 300 km/h down a busy highway showed the judgement of a moron.

However, no matter how emphatic that point needs to be made, confiscating the bike and selling it to raise revenue for the government is the wrong thing to do in this case.

Unable to arrest the young man suspected of riding the bike in the video, the police have turned to the Civil Forfeiture Act to try and punish the perpetrator and, perhaps, turn the incident into a teachable moment. Don’t try this at home or we’ll take your wheels – a similar campaign has been waged against the dangers of street racing in recent years.

The difference is that the public has not heard enough evidence to merit having the police take away the personal property of an Esquimalt mom (her son is believed to be the rider in the video).

Police have every right to seize the bike in case it can be used to actually press charges.

Dangerous driving is a serious offence punishable by jail time. If that can’t be proved unless the rider confesses, we understand why police would want to send a message that you can’t commit such a high-profile crime and get away scot-free.

But rather than attempting civil forfeiture, which is more justly applied to the proceeds of criminal activity, the police could better serve their public by ensuring this rider, and other potential daredevils, learn about the very real consequences of very bad decisions.

Driving at speeds shown in the video create a probability of massive injuries and possibly death to the rider, as well as the dozens of innocent people sharing the road. That is the message that must be imparted.

After all, the goal is to keep young drivers from taking exceptional risks not merely to keep them from posting to YouTube after they do.

hero – 1. a person distinguished by courage, noble deeds, outstanding accomplishments, etc. (i.e. Terry Fox became a national hero)

- source, Canadian Oxford dictionary

The term hero is often thrown around loosely.

We refer to athletes who score a winning goal or otherwise lead the team to a championship as heroes, even though in the grander sense of the word, to make such a claim is nonsense.

Wayne Gretzky, who many Canadians believe is the best hockey player ever to lace up a pair of skates, is iconic in this country – he was an obvious choice to light the Olympic torch to open the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver – but is he heroic?

One could argue that since his accomplishments, unparalleled in his sport, prompted fans and non-hockey watchers alike to shower him with kudos and respect, that yes, he qualifies as a hero. But if one were to compare his actions to, say, those of a longtime dedicated humanitarian, or a soldier who saved the lives of many trenchmates in wartime and helped lead his side to victory, it might be a different story.

Truth is, we have many types of hero in our society, and each serves a valuable purpose for a

different reason. The dictionary definition allows for a fairly broad interpretation.

It seems for most people the question of respect is a key determining factor when considering a person’s hero status, whether that occurs long after their deeds are done or while they are still actively involved in their chosen field.

Former wheelchair athlete Rick Hansen’s Man in Motion world fundraising tour for spinal cord research in the mid-1980s captured the attention of the world, especially here in his home country.

Hansen, like the aforementioned Terry Fox, was initially christened an international hero for his Herculean efforts wheeling himself around the globe in a wheelchair. Never mind the fact that he won three gold medals, two silver and a bronze between two Paralympic Games before tackling the fundraising mission for spinal cord research.

He remains a national hero in many people’s eyes – he received a huge ovation in B.C. Place as one of the final carriers of the Olympic Torch – because he continues

to put others before himself, by spearheading further fundraising efforts and channelling people’s energy for the greater good, much like he did during the original Man in Motion world tour.

Hansen was in Greater Victoria this week, as part of his Rick Hansen Relay cross-Canada tour. While some of the folks who received his special Difference Maker awards in Victoria, Esquimalt and Oak Bay weren’t born at the time of the original Man in Motion, all were no doubt thrilled to be recognized by someone whose light shines in the same way Terry Fox’s did three decades ago.

Hansen, never known to turn down an interview or an opportunity to give an autograph to someone who he thinks it might make a difference for, is the ultimate diplomat for what it means to be Canadian, and what it means to overcome a potentially devastating disability.

He understands, at 54, that his role has changed from those days when his ripped upper body pounded through kilometre after kilometre.

As a man who exudes grace and class as he extends his hands to help, he is definitely a good example of a true Canadian hero.

Don Descoteau is the editor of the Victoria News.

Re: Teacher appreciation needs re-think (Letters April 18)

As an active member of my children’s elementary school PAC, I felt this year our staff appreciation day was more important than ever.

Our school is a community for our family and the teachers that my children spend six hours each weekday with are important people in their lives. We are very fortunate that at our school the teachers, administrators and PAC are a supportive team, and the children benefit greatly.

I volunteer to help whenever I can because I feel it sets a good example for my children. In my opinion, the teachers have taken the only action that they are legally allowed to take and what they are asking for is truly in the best interests of our children. It is up to us parents to speak up on behalf of our teammates.

I do agree that every deserving person should get an appreciation day.

Jennifer LangardNorth Saanich

No need to thank teachers for cancelling programs

Re: Teacher appreciation needs re-think (Letters April 18)

Kudos for Mike Barwick for voicing his opinion on our Teacher Appreciation Day this year. This is an opinion which I believe is shared

by the silent majority once again. After having all extracurricular

activities cancelled in our school, after walking off the job for two days last month, after carrying placards around in our neighbourhood outside our school in February – why should our kids then turn around and write a poem about how thankful they are for their teachers?

I think all fair minded staff at our school would feel a little uncomfortable accepting these gifts from the same children who have been largely overlooked and have had school activities cancelled on them, through no fault of their own.

As a PAC supported event, it troubles me that parents weren’t consulted before this occurred.

Celebrate if you must, but after such a year as we have had, please don’t ask the parents for your help. We’re already dealing with disappointed kids who can’t run cross-country or attend their dance club anymore.

Furthermore, I fully agree with the writer that we should re-evaluate why teachers get an appreciation day for doing their job.

We expect our bus drivers, doctors and electrician to do theirs, or we get upset when they don’t. Why is it that we continue to celebrate our teachers when they’re not doing theirs?

(Letters, March 30)I’d like to weigh in on the letter debate. There

has been no debate. I know from my own experience that if you

have an issue to discuss with our Green MP that she will respond personally to emails. If a constituent has a serious issue to resolve the last resort would be name calling in the newspaper.

Green take on politics refreshing for Peninsula

Re: Gary Lunn nostalgia strikes PNR reader (Letters, March 30)

I think this community rallied behind MP Elizabeth May because she brings a fresh Green perspective to Canadian politics. Her enthusiastic, creative mind has the capacity to re-imagine politics and opportunities that are more aligned to positive human and environmental outcomes.

What she offers my children is hope that politicians can be willing to fundamentally change the course we’re presently on. She’s spent her first year setting priorities, promoting good conduct, encouraging a more sustainable approach to planning and we all know May has no problem understanding budget implications.

Many of us were less than impressed with the use of public funds for the ridiculous oversized McTavish Road interchange. It was a classic example of cronyism. We need to question the wisdom of taking on national debt for projects of this nature.

If Mike Houle, with his expertise in alternative service delivery and public private projects, engaged with Elizabeth May he’d likely find, as I have, her ability to grasp good ideas with ease and he might even find that she is an ally in Ottawa who promotes innovative investments for our community.

Central Saanich mayor’s Co-op comments don’t jibe with his vote

Re: CRD, Central Saanich head for arbitration (News, March 30)

The article contained the following quote from the mayor of Central Saanich regarding his attendance at CRD meetings on the Co-op West Saanich Road development proposal: “There are different representative roles here. I advocated for the council’s position.”

From his statement one might easily conclude that the mayor’s personal opinion differed from that of the majority of council.

However, the minutes currently on the Central Saanich website for the Central Saanich Planning and Development Committee meeting of March 26 where it was decided to send the matter to binding arbitration, show that the mayor voted in favour of doing so along with the majority of council.

Thus, it would seem that there is no difference between the mayor’s personal opinion on the matter and council’s.

The posted record of the meeting shows he is in favour of giving the Co-op proposal another chance for approval.

Furthermore, I find it peculiar that the

municipality is picking up some of the costs of binding arbitration that could be of the order of a few thousand dollars. The mayor voted in favour of having the municipality pay these costs. Should these expenses not be borne by the applicant?

Juno bid puts limited municipal money in the wrong place

The eagerness of Victoria area councils to shovel money out to promoters of a TV show instead of properly funding policing illustrates the irresponsibility of municipal politicians.

People will live without a TV show.But a motorcycle rider allegedly run down by

a dangerous driver, and another motorcyclist smashed by an alleged drunk driver, did not live.

I suggest voters phone their municipal councillors and explain life and death to them.

B.C. Liberals, Harper Conservatives have a lot in common

Recent events demonstrate how far the Harper Conservative government is willing to go to win elections, stifle dissent and force through its hard right agenda.

The findings of the federal Auditor General – that the Harper government misled parliament about the true costs of the war planes it is so determined to purchase – are an eerie reminder of provincial Liberal deception in imposing the HST, selling off B.C. Rail, and illegally stripping Charter-protected collective bargaining rights.

British Columbians should also be concerned about a provincial Liberal government that is silent on Conservative plans to ship tar sands oil from our pristine north coast, weaken fisheries and other environmental legislation and shred the social safety net.

We need a provincial government that will act in the public interest, not just for corporate profit; that will reinstate social justice and sustainability as core objectives in public policy; and will defend the interests of its citizens in the face of the ideologically driven Conservatives.

The alternative is a provincial Liberal government that will simply reinforce the Harper agenda.

That includes an “inappro-priate” presentation to Sidney council April 10 with an “ulti-matum” on the market’s layout, Humble said.

The SBA’s lawyer, L. John Alex-ander, recommended the busi-ness association proceed with running the 2012 market in the same capacity as had in 2011, in a letter to the town dated April 29.

Connor said that, partly with the changes to the market and others’ renewed plans to form a business improvement associa-tion, he believes the SBA is being pushed into the shadows.

According to the RFP, council

will see proposals on May 14 and could sign an agreement with the selected group on May 25.

The summer market is sched-uled to begin June [email protected]

■ June 2011: Merchants deliver a petition to the town, asking to have market vendors configured down the centre of Beacon Avenue.■ Early March 2012: Susan Simosko releases a report with recommendations that could improve the market for some Beacon Avenue merchants.■ March 23: At a meeting at the SBA office, an ad hoc group 15 people agreed unanimously, “for the time being,” to move ahead with the report’s recommendations.■ April 10: SBA presents Sidney council with a

motion to run the market the same way as in 2011, while implementing “as many recommendations from the Simosko report as is reasonably possible. If the town is unable the accept the [SBA] board’s decision, the market will move to another location.”■ April 23: Town of Sidney informs SBA that the licence agreement to operate the market has been terminated.■ April 29: SBA responds to the town with a letter outlining repercussions to removing the association from market management and recommending the town reconsider its decision.

Do you believe one person has the same chance of being wealthy as the next? Or do you honestly think that most people who end up rich, got that way because of special circumstances?My name is Darren Weeks and I know from the bottom of my heart that everyone has the same chance. I am an average Joe. I grew up in a middle class family. I had no special breaks, and didn’t know any famous people who gave me my start. I definitely didn’t win any lottery. But I have done very well for my age......and I have shown thousands of Canadians

how to copy my formula for financial independence.

My company, the Fast Track Group, has been ranked among Canada’s Fastest Growing Companies for two straight years now. Last year, we finished 40th on PROFIT Magazine’s list. In 10 years, I have taken it from 5 employees in one tiny office, to over 100 employees and 12 offices. More than 350,000 Canadians have

now attended Fast Track events. All our success has enabled us to support people that inspire us. The Fast Track Group is the title sponsor of Canada’s Luge team and we support them to the tune of over $1 million. On top of providing FREE financial education to all Canadians, my company is able to offer better returns and tax savings to our investors thanks to our partnerships with multinational Companies. All this growth has put me in the spotlight – I’m a contributor for Canadian Real Estate Magazine and made countless TV appearances on stations such as BNN, CTV and City TV. It’s been a heck of a ride. Now it’s time to teach you how I did it, and how you can do it too!

My greatest pride in all of this?Seeing my clients, students and peers succeeding and thriving in the current economy. They didn’t listen to the masses and lock themselves up in a dark basement, while

waiting for things to “turn around”. No, they took action and realized that...

...turbulent times like this are where most of the wealthiest 1%

made their biggest gains.One of my star students was a tradesperson who was fed up with trying to make ends meet every month. Rob Chaulk was a hard worker that knew his job wasn’t going to make life any easier. He also dabbled in some businesses along the way in the restaurant and towing business.But he didn’t become financially independent until he mastered the money game. I was fortunate enough to be the one who showed him how. He has quit the trades, and now owns multiple businesses and has millions of dollars in cash-flow-positive real estate properties.

One simple shift in the way he thought about money, a solid action plan to move forward,

and he now never again needs to worry about money or paying bills.

I personally grew up in a middle class family with no special advantages or opportunities. The difference for me though was a significant desire to be and have more. It wasn’t about all the fancy toys... for me it was about putting an end to the time for money trap I saw everyone else falling for. It was about seeing more of the world. It was about raising a young family in an environment that was positive about money, and the opportunities abound that created more money for those with initiative. I immersed myself in the “Rich Dad” philosophies, and ultimately worked directly with Robert Kiyosaki to teach Canadian’s these same philosophies and how to take control of their financial future. I began investing in real estate. I started up businesses that supported my new money mindset. I tried to find others in Canada who I could talk to about this drive I had.

It was difficult to find people who thought about money like I did...

Don’t get me wrong, there were lots of successful Canadians out there, but I found it difficult to get them to sit with me and talk one-on-one about their own strategies for wealth creation.

So I sought out those who wanted greater wealth in their own life.

Then I systematized what I had personally done to create wealth, and shared it with them for their own personal use. Those who had the drive to follow my system, ended up making millions. They became friends. They became peers. They became my inner circle mastermind partners. And they encouraged me to take my system bigger and share it with more people in Canada. So I did. I have spoken to thousands of people from every corner of our great country. I shared with them my formula for creating wealth, starting from nothing, or starting with a solid base. My system worked for those who applied it. I travelled far too much and started to burn myself out.

I stopped traveling and started leveraging.I built a team of 100 of the most passionate

people in the country. They helped me get my message out to those who wanted out of the rat race. We pulled in our best students and success stories, and had them share their own examples on the road.The best part? My STAR student will pass on

the knowledge to you.The formula that I taught continued to work for others who I had never personally taught. My system worked for anyone who understood it and applied it, whether or not I taught it to them directly or through my students.Is it your turn to master the money mindset? ...Most people are broke, and will stay that way

for the rest of their life. My company has organized an event coming up in your city and we would like you to join us. There is no cost to attend, but you do need to commit to being there. My team is here to make sure you get the tools you need for creating the independence you crave.Which of these would you like to put a permanent end to?

always wanted and needed, yet knowing it may never happen at the rate you are going now.

Give me 3 hours of your time and I’ll give you powerful strategies that are guaranteed

to change your life.Find out how to get out of bad debt and into wise investments. Discover how anyone, no matter how dire their circumstances, can go from rags to riches in 5 years or less. My students and business partners are prime examples of how you can start with nothing and build a very healthy investment portfolio and business in 5 years or less. The best part? We don’t just show you what to do... you get the formula to go as fast as you like, and can handle. Most seminars share the what – not the how. We show you both, with specific examples, formulas and resources to get you there on your own pace.Don’t go it alone! Bring a friend or family member with you and enjoy the journey to wealth as a team. When you reserve your seat at this event, just mention who you want to bring and we will also give you a CD that sells for $39.95. Nothing good is ever FREE... right? Wrong. I know you may be sceptical because we aren’t charging you for this event. Think about this.

Each one of my wealthiest students and clients started off at a free event just like this. They heard about an event just like this put on by my company. They attended and absorbed every ounce of information shared, and took MASSIVE ACTION. Each of them is now financially independent and able to live life on their own terms. What should you do next? Pick up your phone and dial 1-877-742-4236 or visit our website at www.BCFastTrack.ca and reserve your seat there. Find one or more friends or family members who want out of the rat race like you do... and get them a seat booked as well.Last? Don’t let anyone discourage you or get in your way. Real independence starts when you learn to ignore all the negative people in your life who don’t want you to succeed. Make sure you show up, take lots of notes, and immediately start putting these ideas into action.If I can show completely unknown individuals how to become financially independent in 5 years or less... why can’t you? This is the real deal and I have gone from $0 to $100 million in revenues in just 10 years using these strategies... my students are proof that my techniques work everywhere, for anyone who is willing to take action. Stop what you are doing right now and get your seat booked. Dial 1-877-742-4236 or visit our website at www.BCFastTrack.ca and reserve your seat.

A Yamaha R1 motorcycle that garnered national attention last month when it was seen in an online video speeding from Saanich to Langford at 300 km/h could soon be in the hands of the provincial government.

Saanich police have yet to charge the man they believe recorded himself riding the bike and posted the video to You-Tube.

On April 19, police issued $1,449 worth of tickets to the registered owner of the bike (the suspected driver’s mother) and they are now seeking to have the motor-cycle permanently seized under the Civil Forfeiture Act.

“At this point in time, that is the most

we can do,” Saanich police Sgt. Dean Jantzen said.

A notice of intent to forfeit was pub-lished this week. It reads that the bike was seized because “there was evidence [the motorcycle] would afford evidence in respect to” multiple driving offences, including driving without due care and excessive speeding.

The bike will be forfeited to the Civil Forfeiture Office in two months unless a notice of dispute is filed.

Proceeds from civil forfeitures are used to compensate victims and support local crime prevention and remediation efforts, according to the Ministry of Justice.

A new airline service plans to fly passengers to some harder-to-reach areas of the Island.

NorthStar Air hopes to begin flights, starting June 1, from Victoria International Airport to des-tinations such as the northern end of the West Coast Trail in Bamfield, as well as Tofino – subject to government approval. It also hopes to land in Whistler and Squamish at a later date. It would offer scheduled service on two aircraft, called BN Islanders.

NorthStar air would operate a nine-passenger aircraft with cargo space, for tourism, business and industry, such as charter flights for forestry, mining and fishing operations. It can land on short, unimproved runway strips, such as Bamfield’s, according to NorthStar.

The website will be equipped to take online bookings, the company said and flights will oper-ate year-round.

The website, www.northstarairtours.com, offers flights from Victoria to Bamfield for $99 and to Tofino for $119.

SPORTS


At five, Dillon Morrison couldn’t fathom ever riding his bike.

He recalls the arguments with his mom, throwing down his blue bike with a “I can’t do this. I won’t.”

Nine years later he’s singing a different tune.

“I just go out on my bike and it takes my mind away. I have to think about what I’m doing,” he said.

“Now I can’t keep him off the bike,” adds mom Monica.

Morrison, 14, won the Island Cup series downhill mountain bike race in Cumberland the weekend of April 21-22. He won the beginner division with a time of two minutes, 24 seconds.

The North Saanich middle school student discovered the sport a couple years ago after joining the mountain bike club in Grade 6. He quickly progressed from the school group rides and now hurtles down mountainside trails tackling tree roots, rock gardens and jumps in pursuit of

the fastest time. “I prefer the technical stuff on

the trails. I like hitting the rough

stuff,” he said. Last year he started taking

it seriously. This year he found a sponsor – Marty’s Mountain cycle in Esquimalt – for his first year in the circuit. He plans to enter the four remaining B.C. Cup competitions this year, including one in Port Alberni this weekend.

The cracked collarbone, nearly broken jaw and multiple stitches he’s earned over the past couple years haven’t diluted his passion for the sport.

“Everyone’s so chill and calm, even though it’s so focused,” he said. “It’s more like a lifestyle.”

Mentoring with athletes like pro rider Dean Tennant, he can see a career ahead.

“I’d like to be up in the World Cup standings,” he said. “It doesn’t seem like a bad lifestyle, but you have to be in the top 10.”

Trails blaze career path

An Olympic future seems certain for up-and-coming Victoria rower Patricia Obee, though she might have to wait a little longer.

Despite winning the 2011 World Cup in light-weight women’s double last year, 20-year-old Obee slipped to Canada’s third choice for the 2012 Olym-pics.

Last week, Stelly’s grad Obee raced head-to-head against 37-year-old Tracy Cameron in single sculls at Elk Lake, with Cameron taking the race and second-spot in Canada’s lightweight double for the London Games. Lindsay Jennerich, 29, was

previously selected for the boat.It’s a comeback for Cameron, who relocated

to Victoria be part of the rowing centre at Elk Lake. Cameron and Jennerich won gold at the 2010 world rowing championships, but Cameron was injured for last year’s worlds.

That’s when Obee paired with Jennerich and won silver. Though it qualified the boat for the 2012 Olympics, the selection process for rowers is left until much closer to the Olympics, which begin July 27.

Bringing back the retro rockFreeride brings its brand of retro rock to Sidney this month. They play hits by bands like Aerosmith, AC/DC, the Cars, Led Zepplin and really get into the groove with ’70s costuming. The first full show is on May 25 at Sidney Army Navy and Air Force Veterans, 9841 Fourth St. at 7 p.m. There is no cover charge.

A blockbuster line-up is ahead for the Victoria Symphony.

Beginning her 10th season as music director of the Victoria Symphony, maestra Tania Miller unveiled the schedule for the symphony’s 72nd season, which includes singer-songwriter Chantal Kreviazuk and Grammy Award winning violinist James Ehnes.

For the first time in its history the Victoria Symphony will per-form Bartok’s Miraculous Manda-rin and Nielsen’s Symphony No. 5.

The VS Pops Series will fea-ture Cirque de la Symphonie, the Beatles: Sergeant Pepper, and in tribute to the retirement of prin-cipal pops conductor Brian Jack-son, the Best of Brian Jackson.

Leading off the announce-ments, Miller said it was hard to believe the new season would be her 10th as music director. When she joined the symphony in 2003, she was not only the youngest music director of a major orchestra in Canada at age 33, but she was also the only female music director.

Her contributions to the Vic-toria Symphony have included innovative programming, sig-nificant orchestra changes and increased music education pro-grams.

The Concert for Kids Series this season will begin with the

Snowman on Nov. 18. The film version of the story will be shown with live musical accom-paniment by the orchestra.

The New Music Festival in November will celebrate 100 years of one of the most iconic

and revolutionary figures in musical history – John Cage.

Subscription packages and season brochures are available through the Victoria Symphony box office at 250-385-6515.

Roszan HolmenNews staff

Within weeks, Richard Leblanc of Wood-wynn Farms will begin recruiting people from Victoria’s homeless community to

start a new chapter in their life, working on an organic farm and sleeping in tents on his farm in Central Saanich.

Campsites are a far cry from the housing he hoped to build, but Leblanc calls it an interim step in his Creating Homefulness Society’s vision.

Two weeks ago, the Agricultural Land Commission rejected the society’s applica-

tion to build housing for 120 people on the farm on one per cent of the land.

According to its decision released April 21, the commission does not believe hous-ing needs to be located within the Agricul-tural Land Reserve, given the proximity of land outside the reserve.

“The commission is approached by sim-ilar organizations with varying degrees of agriculture as part of their programming on a regular basis and is very wary of per-mitting this type of institutional use within

the ALR,” the decision reads.On Tuesday night, the Creating Home-

fulness Society board met to regroup.“This is a major disappointment,” said

Leblanc, the society’s executive director. The board, however, is “undaunted,” he said.

The farm is zoned for approximately 10 campsites. That means Leblanc can still create a community on the farm – it just won’t be as comfortable.

“We’re going to bring on some Porta-Pottys and a fire pit,” he said.

Eventually, Leblanc plans to submit a new application to the commission.

As well as housing, his proposal included repurposing 16 structures on the farm into a processing plant to make jams and jellies, a café and offices.

The society’s goal is to diversify the farm’s products to decrease its depen-dence on government grants and to teach a variety of skills, including farming, ser-vice and administrative.

The board’s change in course also has repercussions for Leblanc himself.

For the past 80 nights, Leblanc slept in a van downtown as part of a campaign. He’d committed to living that way until 2,012 people wrote letters of support and

the same number donated 99 cents a day to the cause.

“It’s forcing me to shift gears,” he said. “If we’re having far more activity on the land, then I need to shift my attentions and energies and time back to Woodw-ynn.”

While looking forward to returning to a warm, soft bed and a shower, Leblanc said, “I’m disappointed that we didn’t bring it to the end we originally hoped.”

At the same time, he said, dialogue in the community about Woodwynn “went through the roof.”
