Overpasswill bewidened

Thornhill to get sewers

By JOSH MASSEY

THE SANDE Overpass is going to look a lot different later this year after the provin-cial transportation ministry finishes a ma-jor project to add a fifth lane to the Hwy16 structure which connects the northern and southern portions of the city.

Contractors are to widen the overpass on its southwestern portion to then create two turning lanes for traffic turning eastward from the north.

Traffic flow in all directions on the south end of the overpass will then be regulated by installing lights on that south end where it meets Hwy16/Keith Ave. from the east and Keith Ave. from the west.

The project, one of several for the area, was announced last week and is in response to repeated calls from the City of Terrace and others to ease congestion and create a safer traffic pattern on the overpass.

Local officials and others have called for improvements based on increased traffic from projected major liquefied natural gas plant construction and other major develop-ments in the region. It also ends, for now, other calls for a second crossing route over the CN rail tracks which divide the city.

“Currently there is just one left turn lane so when you come over the overpass [from the north] and you go to turn left there is just one [lane],” explained local transporta-tion manager Darrell Gunn of the current traffic pattern.

“So now there are going to be two dedi-cated left turn lanes and then there will be an extended right turn lane that is going to be created after Sande Overpass that will be dedicated to people turning right onto Keith,” he said. When finished, there will be three lanes for traffic running south on the overpass and two for traffic running north.

The new traffic pattern and the lights to be installed will also make it safer for pe-destrians and allow them to cross on the southern end, said Gunn.

Motorists turning left onto the overpass from Keith on the west and motorists want-ing to continue along Keith from the east are now regulated by flashing lights, mean-ing they have to wait until it is safe to pro-ceed.

AFTER MANY years of planning, the Thornhill sewer project is another step closer to becoming a reality.

At its March 20 board meeting, the Regional District of Kitimat-Sti-kine board voted in fa-vour of amending two bylaws about the sewer system and the financing of it.

Costs are estimated at $3.4 million.

Currently, upper and lower Thornhill residents have independent on-site septic systems.

That’s excluding homes and businesses on the south side of the Thornhill Creek Bridge and on Churchhill St., which had a sewer system put in after a bylaw was approved in 1994.

That bylaw allowed for the expansion of the sewer system as money became available.

The Thornhill core

area is this next phase of the sewer system and includes from Thornhill Creek Bridge on Queen-sway over the CN tracks, up on Substation Road all the way across to the Skeena Landing ho-tel across the four-way stop, and goes down the Thornhill Frontage Road to Husky next to where the new hotel is being built and across the high-way as far as the Chevron station.

That area also takes in

the Northern Motor Inn, down Paquette St. and the west side for the commu-nity zoned properties.

“Thornhill’s been pushing on that (sewer system) probably any-where from 15 to 20 years,” said regional dis-trict Thornhill director Ted Ramsey.

“And for Thornhill it’s a key project, absolutely key.”

Septic systems mean the land lots have to be bigger and the land

owners have to maintain them, but a sewer system places the responsibility in the regional district’s hands, he added.

And it opens up the area for businesses, which are more likely to want to develop land and build on it with a sewer system, said Ramsey.

Money was never available to pay for a ma-jor portion of the expan-sion until now.

Pep rally a royal send offas Kings chase Coy Cup

STAFF PHOTO

TERRACE RIVER KINGS captain Steve Cullis with Terrace mayor Carol Leclerc at Coy Cup send off rally March 21 at Terrace Totem Ford.

CENTRAL INTERIOR Hockey League champi-ons the Terrace River Kings were urged to bring home the Coy Cup, the pinnacle of Men’s Senior AA hockey in B.C. at a March 21 pep rally held at Terrace Totem Ford.

The team journeyed to Fort Nelson at the start of the week to take part in the four-team Coy Cup tournament and played their first game yesterday.

“I’d like to see the team in the Riverboat Days parade this year, packing home the Coy Cup,” said Terrace mayor Carol Leclerc at the rally.

She said the team personified the attributes of sportsmanship, camaraderie and friendship.

“Hockey is good for the mind and body and soul,” Leclerc added. “It’s your fans, friends and family that make the entire team.”

The Kings were undefeated in their 16-game regular league schedule, defeating first Smithers and then Williams Lake for the CIHL champion-ship and a berth in the Coy Cup tournament.

They’re facing the Fort Nelson Yeti, the Fort St. John Senior Flyers and the Powell River Regals.

River Kings manager Ray Hallock also spoke, noting the team has been building toward overall success the past several years.

Goalie Patrick Leal continued his performance this year by being named the league’s top goalten-der and the top league player this year was Jordan Peddle.

Also at the rally were the Terrace Totem Ford Midget rep team which made it two years in a row last week as provincial Tier 3 champions.

Kings captain Steve Cullis, who presented Leclerc with a team jersey, made note of the Midg-ets’ win.

“Let’s make it a three-peat,” he told the team.

Alcan union challenges emissions planBy CAMERON ORR

THE UNION repre-senting Rio Tinto Al-can’s Kitimat aluminum smelter workers has filed a judicial review to the supreme court to challenge the com-pany’s provincial emis-sions permit allowing it to increase sulphur di-oxide (SO2) emissions when its new smelter now under construction is finished.

Unifor Local 2301 has joined with others in calling for scrubbers to be installed so that SO2 won’t be released into the atmosphere.

The union, which represents 950 mem-bers in Kitimat, say the increase in SO2 poses a “major public health threat.”

From 27 tonnes per

day, the RTA emissions will rise to a maximum of 42 tonnes a day, which reflects a larger output of aluminum, the company has said.

Unifor 2301 Presi-dent Rick Belmont said in a union press release that the B.C. govern-ment “must take the threat to public health in Kitimat seriously.”

The union says the emissions for the new smelter are only limited in relation to daily emis-sions, while it should be restricted for aver-age emissions in five to 10 minute intervals as health effects from SO2 come from ‘spikes’ of concentration, they say.

The union also be-lieve the decision-mak-ing process itself was flawed, with a Ministry of Environment em-

ployee receiving pay-ments from RTA.

A company spokes-person last November said secondment agree-ments—the name for agreements as in this case—are not out of the ordinary when it comes to assessing and per-mitting large industrial projects.

As for the permit itself and the union’s recent filing, Rio Tinto Alcan spokesperson Kevin Dobbin said they are surprised by the union’s action.

“We’re spending $4.8 billion on a new, state-of-the-art technol-ogy smelter that will reduce environmental impacts by over 50 per cent, so we strongly be-lieve the smelter is go-ing to be very good for the environment and the

health of our employ-ees,” said Dobbin.

He said the company commissioned a third-party study on the ef-fects of SO2 which last-ed 18 months and it was reviewed by the minis-try of environment.

That review led to the development of an Environmental Ef-fects Management plan

which will call for ex-tensive testing in the start up phase, said Dobbin.

As for another on-going appeal by two Kitimat residents on the company’s emissions permit, Dobbin said the company will watch how the process unfolds but RTA is pushing for-ward as normal with

their permit in hand.“We’re proceeding

under that premise that we have a permit from the ministry of environ-ment,” he said. “We still feel very strongly that the environmental im-pacts will be minimal and we’ll just go from there.”

The smelter’s re-maining emissions are

seeing a decrease, most notably with their Poly-cyclic Aromatic Hy-drocarbons which are going from 212 tonnes a year to three tonnes a year, a 98 per cent drop.

Greenhouse gas emissions are also drop-ping 36 per cent.

Cameron Orr is the editor of The Northern Sentinel in Kitimat.

MORE PEOPLE were working in the northwest in February than in Febru-ary last year, indicates jobs informa-tion released by Statistics Canada.

The 43,300 listed as working ei-ther full or part time in February re-sulted in an unemployment rate of 5.5 per cent, better than the 8.1 per cent for Feburary 2014 when the number of people working was 37,500.

February’s 5.5 per cent unemploy-ment rate was topped only by the northeast and the Cariboo among the seven regions in B.C. from which sta-tistics are tabulated.

The provincial unemployment rate as a whole was 6.8 per cent with the Thompson-Okanagan having the highest regional unemployment rate at 7.1 per cent.

The northwest jobless rate is not the number of people collecting Em-ployment Insurance.

Instead it is based on interviews of people aged 15 and over from the north coast to just this side of Vander-hoof who consider themselves as part of the workforce whether they are employed or not.

In February 45,800 people de-clared themselves as being part of the labour force, a jump over the 40,700 who made that declaration in Febru-ary 2014.

Because people can declare them-selves part of the labour force or not, regardless if they are working, the monthly statistics can reflect how people feel about their own employ-ment prospects.

The northwest unemployment rate rose to as high as 10.7 per cent in July 2014 before starting to fall to its cur-rent level.

In January, the unemployment rate was 4.7 per cent.

Sewer on its wayIt comes from a specific federal-

provincial program which finances projects through general taxes col-lected on gas sales.

Officials say the gas tax fund will pay for approximately $1.6 million of the $3.4 million anticipated cost.

The rest of the money, $1.8 mil-lion, will be borrowed and repaid by residents.

The regional district board has ap-proved borrowing up to $2.46 million to cover that $1.8 million and any un-expected cost overruns.

The Local Government Act says the regional district could amend the bylaw for the expansion of the sewer system if at least 50 per cent of the landowners in the area approved of it by signing a petition and if that in-

cluded at least 50 per cent of the net taxable value of all land and improve-ments.

The petition was signed by 57 per cent of land owners (27 out of 48 par-cels of land), which represents 73 per cent of the net taxable value in the service area.

“We’ve done a preliminary sub-mission to the ministry of transport for the necessary approvals to install the works within the right-of-way,” said manager works and services Roger Tooms, referring to the region-al district asking for the ministry’s permission to put the sewer system in the area next to the roads in Thornhill.

Issuing the construction tender is expected “in the coming months,” he added.

Jobs rate betterthan it has been


By ANNA KILLEN

A central theme of the documen-tary Highway of Tears, which

made its Terrace premiere last week before touring several other communities along Highway 16, is the importance of community discussion as a way to en-gage and empower those af-fected by violence. The im-portance of talking through violence, talking as a means of drawing attention to an is-sue, talking so no one ever, ever forgets.

And for the nearly 250 people who attended the screening at the REM Lee Theatre March 17 – com-munity leaders, including Skeena Bulkley MP Nathan Cullen, Terrace mayor Carol Leclerc and members of Ter-race city council, represen-tatives from all of the nearby First Nations communities, including an entire bus from Gitanyow, and family mem-bers of some of the local victims – that message was underscored during the long and emotional ques-tion and answer period that took place after the show-ing. The documentary acting as a catalyst, allowing those in the community to share their stories of loss, grief, and the generational impacts the residential school system has had on First Nations cul-ture – turning the theatre’s auditorium into a modern day town hall on a complex, important issue.

Through lingering, in-tentional shots, stirring mu-sic, and raw interviews with victims and well-known community leaders, the film seeks to provide broad un-derstanding, context, and a focussed action plan to rem-edy the plight of missing and murdered women along the stretch of highway known as the Highway of Tears.

Its director is Matt Smi-ley, a Canadian expat living in Los Angeles with family ties to Williams Lake and Montreal, who produced the film with Canadian actress Carly Pope. The documen-tary and its intended inter-national audience benefits from Smiley’s perch as an outsider – an outsider who later turns activist.

Smiley’s initial intention, after hearing about the dis-appearance of tree-planter Nicole Hoar on a camping trip near Prince George, was to write a fictional script, but “the more I started to research the case, I realized

there were all of these other girls,” he said, speaking be-fore the screening. “And the more I started to talk to the families, I realized there was no way I could do a fictional piece on this subject because there was so much unrest with regards to the story – especially for certain cases where the women have gone missing and haven’t been found, there’s this big sense of void through the entire family and, even in other cases where their loved one is found, it’s something that never goes away.”

In trying to understand and explain the historical context and deep-seated so-cial issues of the area, and gaining the trust of and giv-ing a voice to those affected by the violent acts that have taken place along the high-way, Smiley’s role grew from first-time documentary filmmaker to someone im-mersed in the community. He’s taken on the role of an unofficial advocate and fa-cilitator of discussion – he said he’s realized, through the Q&A sessions like the one at the Terrace screen-ing, that part of his charge is simply showing people that it’s OK to talk about these issues. Giving people that platform, however dif-ficult, takes away some of the weight of those who have been affected by the

unsolved murders and disap-pearances.

“That’s something I defi-nitely don’t take lightly. As much as this is really close to my heart now … my pri-mary objective is just to be a filmmaker, and move on and do other stories,” he said. “I was never really expecting to be grabbed so hard.”

The screenings are im-portant, he said, because “the issue deserves a mo-ment of pause” and people leave the theatre with inten-tion.

“It would be much easier to have just done it and let it go – but I think in order to actually spark some dia-logue towards change, you need to have people really pay attention, get moved, not be distracted, get a feel-ing and then talk about it,” he said. “Seeing how it brings people together for a mutual understanding was really powerful and again something that wasn’t really intended or anticipated.”

The term Highway of Tears has been part of the northwest B.C. lexicon for longer than the national and international lens has focused on this part of the world – and the tragedy of missing women, specifi-cally aboriginal women, in Canada. This documentary – with screenings planned across North America and

Europe – will only narrow that focus, and with the fed-eral elections coming up this fall, Smiley’s hope is that the issue of missing and murdered women will strike through party lines and be-

come an election issue. “The action needed is a political one, but the issue of vio-lence and murder should be pretty equal on all levels,” he said. “If I have to talk about it to get some sort of policy

to change, then I’m going to do it.”

The film will be back for a screening in Prince Rupert next month.

Highway of tearsDocumentary provides platform for emotional, important discussion

THE TERM Highway of Tears, generally taken to be Highway 16 between Prince George and Prince Rupert, dates back to the middle part of the last decade, but the list of those who have been placed on the list attributed to that term stretches back even further.

Those tracking the num-bers of missing and mur-dered women often list local resident Monica Ignas as be-ing the first.

Just 15 when last seen alive in December 1974, her remains were found seven months later.

Others on the list include:Lana Derrick, 19, was

last seen in October 1995 at a gas station near Terrace. She was a student at North-west Community College in Terrace. An extensive search at the time along Highway 16 by authorities, family members and members of the community failed to find any trace.

Tamara Chipman, 22, from Terrace was last seen

on Sept. 21, 2005, hitch-hiking along Highway 16 toward Terrace near Prince Rupert.

She was not reported missing until late fall that year and a subsequent search also failed to find any trace.

Ramona Wilson, 16, of Smithers was last seen alive in June 1994 when she was believed be hitch-hiking. Her body was found 10 months later.

Delphine Nikal, 16, of Smithers was last seen in June 1990, when she was hitchhiking from Smithers to her home in Telkwa.

Alberta Williams, 24, disappeared in August 1989 and her body was found sev-eral weeks later near Prince Rupert.

Nicole Hoar, 25, was from Alberta and was work-ing in the Prince George area as a tree planter. She was last seen hitchhiking to Smithers on Highway 16 on June 21, 2002.

Following the creation of

a RCMP task force, an ex-panded list both in names – set at 18 – and in geography, to include Highways 97 and 5 to the south, was released.

The youngest victim on this list is Monica Jack, 12.

She disappeared in May 1978 while riding her bike near Merritt. Her remains were found in 1996.

The RCMP task force last year had its budget and the number of officers as-signed to it cut back.

ESTABLISHED APRIL 27, 1988

“WHILE the majority of the prov-ince’s population is in urban cen-tres, the majority of wealth is gen-erated by resource development in rural areas.”

Forests minister Steve Thomson could not have been more right when he uttered those words last Septem-ber in announcing the framework for a council to advise the province on rural issues.

From logging to mining to oil and gas, vast streams of revenue � ow from rural areas to support the in-creasingly densely populated south-ern areas of the province. The Rio Tinto Alcan smelter at Kitimat, for instance, is the largest single con-tributor to the provincial economy

And what comes back in return?Not terribly much, it seems.Premier Christy Clark during the

2013 provincial election promised to create something called the rural dividend, tossing out the � gure of $25 million annually beginning this year.

Pushing through the rural dividend is one of the jobs of Mr. Thomson’s rural advisory council. He’s even gone so far as to call for an “equi-table share in the economic bene� ts generated from resource-based in-dustries.”

Rural British Columbians should only have the best of wishes for Mr. Thomson and his rural council. If the premier’s $25 million is to be con-sidered “equitable,” Mr. Thomson and his council have a long, long road to travel.

EDITORIALA6 www.terracestandard.com OPINION Wednesday, March 25, 2015 Terrace Standard

To learn that Ter-race will hire a full time by-law of� cer freeing up 10 extra

hours for the dog catcher to follow up on barking dogs and other animal complaints is good news. I’m sure neighbours think I’m a nut when I turn right around and go home to phone the dog pound when any dog, big or small, charges at me as I walk out with my dogs.

Dog owners who never walk their dogs but instead let them run loose don’t ap-preciate the injuries that can result to someone my age, even younger, when loose dogs set my two circling around me in their attempt to oppose the approaching dog until my knees are as trussed as a Thanksgiving turkey’s.

They might disbelieve if they read a recent report of the injuries suffered by a 55-year-old Saskatoon woman as she walked her two little shelties in a dog walking park. She was hit from behind and knocked to the ground by a rushing dog. The size of the dog and its owner is unknown to her. She lay on the ground, in severe pain, with a broken shoulder, broken wrist, broken knee

and broken ankle. Emergen-cy room doctors would ask her if she had been hit by a vehicle.

To prolong her agony for an hour, when this accident happened February 22, the park was still quite soggy and snow covered. The am-bulance was too heavy for ground conditions and too wide to � t through the park entrance to reach her. An am-bulance supervisor was dis-patched with a smaller truck to pick her up.

She spent several weeks in hospital and underwent two surgeries before being sent home to recover where her home resembles a phys-

iotherapy department out-� tted with a wheelchair lift and other devices to make her care less burdensome. Doctors tell her she will be off work from three to six months.

The “Alaska News” re-ports a problem with stolen dogs in B.C.’s Peace Region. North Peace SPCA has 50 missing dogs on � le. South Peace reports 20 dogs miss-ing. Dawson Creek RCMP report two dogs stolen. It’s something of an epidemic, but why? Equally disturbing, a few owners whose dogs have gone missing report � nding a white supermar-ket shopping bag tied high in the branches of a nearby tree, perhaps as a signal to dognappers of a dog worth stealing.

On March 16, I tuned in to Global TV as Don Martin in-terviewed Sheila Watt-Clout-ier about her book, “The Right to be Cold”. I learned a piece of Inuit history involv-ing the systematic slaughter of hunters’ Siberian huskies by RCMP upon orders from Ottawa.

Beginning in the 1950s through 1960s hunters’ dog teams were shot and killed en masse. Severe social,

economic and cultural re-percussions ensued. Ottawa claimed the killing was to stamp out rabies and danger-ous dogs in the 22 communi-ties scattered over northern Canada. In fact, erasing the Inuits’ ability to hunt and live off the land forced an end to their nomadic lifestyle. They had to establish permanent settlements.

The number of Sibe-rian huskies registered with the Canadian Kennel Club dropped from 20,000 dogs in 1950 to 279 now.

Author Watt-Cloutier lived with her grandmother in Kuujjuaq, northern Que-bec to the age of 19 before she went south to further her education, and eventually do research into effects of glob-al warming. Upon her return visits years later she noticed the differences caused by the loss of huskies. “There was a stillness in the air. Every-thing was so quiet. No dogs barking.”

The slaughter of the Inu-its’ huskies is documented in a 54-minute movie/docu-mentary including reenact-ments and testimonials given by Inuit elders. The movie is titled “Echo of the Last Howl”.

Some dogs don’t fare well

Give me those old-time teachers any day

Terrace Standard Wednesday, March 25, 2015 VIEWPOINTS www.terracestandard.com A7

There was a time when we were able to do things to help each other without being told “you

need permission or you are not qualified.”

When I was growing up in old Kitselas in the valley called Endodoon the people were still able to do things without permis-sion, sharing what they had, and each doing their part to make life enjoyable.

One of those people I will nev-er forget is Henry Bolton. Henry was the brother of Chris Bolton and the late husband of Minnie.

Henry enjoyed teaching. When he was in his late teens and early twenties he spent much of his free time teaching us kids.

No one asked him to teach, and no one paid him to teach us.

He simply enjoyed teaching those he cared about.

Henry’s mother Flora read music and played the organ in the Salvation Army church.

He learned enough music from his mother to become a pretty good guitar player and country singer.

He taught us enough about guitar playing and music to spark a lifelong interest in music in some of us.

Morris Mason and I still carry the tradition to this day.

Henry was also a boxer and he was well known up and down the Skeena for his dressing gown with the name ‘Hank’ in big let-ters on the back.

He not only taught us to box, he also taught us to stand our ground, to get over our fears, and

not give up even when no one backs you up.

One of the most important lessons we learned was physical

fitness. Henry taught us the value of constant exercise, of staying fit and keeping healthy.

It was not long after World War II there was still a shortage of steel so the weights he taught us with were made of wood.

We learned it was the exercise that mattered not the equipment.

Today I still exercise at home every day. I skip rope, and once in a while I startle Zoe when I take off running.

The lessons of Henry Bolton and others like him helped shape lifelong habits in a way of life that makes us who we are.

We can only learn from other Kitselas people; professionals cannot teach us our identity nor can they help us maintain our cul-ture as Kitselas people.

Today Henry would have been

told you are not a professional, you can’t do that without a crimi-nal record check, or you don’t have permission to teach.

When we give away control of our everyday lives to others we lose far more than we gain.

I have had many teachers in Kitselas over the years.

It is these teachers that we must remember and keep alive their teachings.

Mel Bevan is a member of the Kitselas First Nation and its chief negotiator on its treaty negotia-tions with the federal and provin-cial governments.

The Kitselas have approved a land claims treaty agreement in principle and are working toward a final document.

It will also require a ratifica-tion vote.

GOVERNMENTS CAN change laws if they wish but sometimes those changes can be challenged in Canada’s courts.

Sometimes it’s just legal limboDear Sir:

As pointed out in The Ter-race Standard’s February 25, 2015, article “Just stop it, says district” there is a large dif-ference of opinion between the public acceptance of the Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine’s new dump location south of Terrace near Lakelse Lake and the regional district.

I personally do agree that the location is not the best, be-cause it is above watercourses and could leak in the future, but both the existing Terrace

and Thornhill dumps do have the same problem.

They are located above wa-tercourses and leaching into them.

Because of B.C. geography – mountains, valleys, rivers, streams – it is very difficult to find a good location.

But one thing what people may not realize is, if one level of government decides to give new powers or remove powers from a lower level of govern-ment, that lower level is just about absolutely powerless

about that. Even the federal govern-

ment has limitations about its power, they can pass/make laws and legislation, but some-times the Supreme Court of Canada can set aside, invali-date sections or parts of such laws/legislation, as we have seen in a number of cases re-cently.

Anybody, a lower level of government, a organization or a person, can legally challenge a law/legislation.

But as we also have seen

recently that can take years or even decades to go through the court system, not to mention a lot of money.

Once a court invalidates a law/legislation, they give that level of government a time frame to change the law, but meanwhile any action using the old law would not even make it to court.

Such a legal limbo can last for several months or even lon-ger.

Martin Holzbauer,Terrace, B.C.

Dear Sir:The Kitimat-Stikine regional district has scruti-

nized a petition brought to it indicating opposition to the curbside collection plan, which was imposed on taxpayers in the Greater Terrace area in Decem-ber of 2014.

Instead of considering why 706 people had signed this petition the regional district decided instead to dissect the petition to determine whose signatures on the petition were what they referred to as “legitimate.”

Regional district staff was directed by then-chair Bruce Bidgood to determine where those signers came from and created a percentile spreadsheet of petitioners to population count. The issue of the pe-tition should have received the spotlight but did not.

Other then the Area C Director, the regional dis-trict board showed no interest or concern for any of the residents who signed the petition or for the ones who flooded their meeting room to overflow-ing when this contentious issue was to be voted on.

What resulted was approval by the board of By-law 640 back in Nov. 2014.

In the final analysis the data collected by the regional district to discredit petitioners was also incorrect on their part but apparently their calcula-tions don’t matter.

The regional district decided to do its population comparisons based on total population numbers, including those less than 18 years of age who are not eligible to vote. Coincidently those individuals were not allowed to be counted on our petitions.

You would think we would both have to con-form to the same criteria, but apparently not if you are the regional district. It even went so far as to do handwriting comparisons and address checks.

In the end it determined 661 signatures were “legitimate”, which still represents 13 per cent of electoral area C and E residents.

For those of us who believe in democratic prin-ciples, the regional district board of directors and its administration totally disregarded the intention of our petition.

An open letter to: Rob Brown

Dear Rob:As always I love to read your col-

umns. Mention of our beloved home and

it’s beauty is always an enjoyable read.

However I must mention it is my husband Roger Wiffen, not Dave as you have recently said who had so belovingly refurbished the old Lake-

lse River fisheries cabin those many years ago. His hard work was the en-joyment of many who did travel those trails in search of the rivers bounty.

Thank you for always remember-ing my dad, Finlay. You were always a good pal to him.

Hope this note finds you and your family happy and healthy.

All the best from Calgary,Mary Wiffen,

Calgary, Alberta

The board also disregarded the concerns of the people they are sup-posed to represent.

As a result the board approved By-law 640 in November of 2014.

The board is also voting on anoth-er issue that many taxpayers have also opposed.

The issue is the huge cost of the proposed Forceman Ridge landfill and the ensuing waste management plan.

I am concerned about the enor-mous costs associated with the cur-rent landfill proposal.

Based on the regional district’s five-year financial plan, taxes in the first year increase by 38 per cent and in the following four years there is a projected additional 10 per cent in-crease.

In addition residents will also pay no less than $200 per year for manda-tory garbage collection as secured by Bylaw 640.

The overall cost projections are es-timated at $36 million over 10 years.

Despite this and environmental concerns to the Lakelse Lake and Onion Lake area the regional district administration recommended that the board approve the 25 per cent design of the Forceman Ridge Landfill and Thornhill Transfer Station.

The proposal will use a combina-tion of revenues to fund the Greater Terrace area services.

This will include property tax requisition to recover 68 per cent of required revenue, tipping fees to re-cover 30 per cent of required revenue, and First Nation contributions in the order of two per cent.

The proposed draft model will in-stigate a significant increase to prop-erty taxation.

This will disproportionately im-pact and penalize home owners while still not addressing many of the solid waste concerns.

This is not the first time that I have expressed my disappointment that neither the regional district ad-ministration nor the regional district board have given any consideration to the gargantuan costs of the proposed Forceman Ridge Landfill.

They do not want to look for less expensive alternatives or review their outdated studies.

The regional district uses taxpay-ers dollars without concern for proj-ect costs.

The lack of transparency and con-sultation by regional district with the public is not good enough for me.

Les Pawlak, Terrace, B.C.

UNBC strike ends for nowas mediation underwayAFTER A two-week faculty strike, UNBC students at the Terrace campus and elsewhere returned to classes March 20 as efforts were renewed to negoti-ate a first-time contract.

The moved followed a March 19 application made by the university to the provincial Labour Relations Board for a special mediation pro-cess available to those involved in negotiating a first collective agree-ment.

The recently estab-lished faculty associa-tion union, which rep-resents 360 instructors and others, has been in

negotiations and then mediation with the uni-versity since last May in an attempt to reach a first agreement. The union issued 72-hour strike notice Monday, March 2 and erected picket lines, including at the Terrace campus, March 5.

The university’s ap-plication means the fac-ulty association strike must end – but if me-diation fails again, the union can resume strike action.

Salary is the main is-sue for the union, who says UNBC instructors are paid as much as 20 per cent less than their

counterparts across the province and country – and that the salary mod-el is not only unfair, but makes it difficult to attract and retain high-quality professors.

“This is not the opti-mal way to be returning to work,” said Terrace faculty association rep-resentative Bruce Bid-good on the university’s application, which will have both parties work with an independent mediator to try to reach a contract agreement in the coming weeks.

A timeline provided indicates that mediation efforts will continue un-til the end of April.

“It’s heartening be-cause we believe our case is compelling and that any independent body reviewing the situation of the faculty members at UNBC will see the clear logic of the rationale for the increases in pay and maintenance of aca-demic integrity in terms of the governance of the university,” said Bid-good.

A statement from UNBC president Daniel Weeks released March 19 said, “it has become increasingly clear that the faculty associa-tion strike is having a significant impact on

our students’ lives and the entire UNBC com-munity. We deeply re-gret this.” Weeks said he hopes an agreement can be reached and that there will no further job action.

Bidgood said further job action is an option but he is “cautiously optimistic” despite wor-ries that the timeline could undermine the faculty’s bargaining po-sition.

“We can dither about numbers, but unless there is recognition by the administration that our salary grid system is broken and needs re-pair, we simply can’t go back,” he said.

MURIEL MICHIEL gets a kiss for her 93rd birthday from Bill McRae March 13 at the Happy Gang Centre.

CELEBRATING HER 93rd birthday meant Muriel Michiel got a big kiss from lifelong friend Bill McRae March 13 at the Happy Gang Centre.

Michiel and McRae went to school together in Smith-ers – she was the older woman in his life at three years older than him.

Michiel had lunch with friends at the centre, who put a couple of long tables together so they could all sit together.

Those friends included Bill and Helene McRae, Renee Cox, Yvonne Moen and sev-eral others.

And Michiel’s name is etched, along with many oth-er names, on a plaque of life members of the BC Old Age Pensioners Association that’s hanging inside the centre too.

Birthday celebrations with lots of friends and often fam-ily are a regular event at the Happy Gang Centre.

POLICE OFFICERS, City of Terrace officials and family and friends came together March 19 to hon-our a police officer killed on that day 30 years ago.

A large plaque with a photo and write-up about Const. Mike Buday was unveiled at a ceremony at the newly-named Constable Michael Buday Park behind the 5300 block of Mountain Vista.

Buday, 27 at the time of his death, was shot on the shores of Teslin Lake by Michael Oros, a 33-year-old recluse who lived alone in the bush.

Oros, who emerged from hiding and shot Bu-day from behind, was being sought for a number of crimes, including break and enter. Buday, a dog handler, and his dog Trooper were part of an RCMP emergency response team sent up to find him.

Oros was himself then shot and killed by another member of the RCMP team.

Buday’s two brothers and sister were at the dedi-cation as were current and retired RCMP officers and the North District emergency response team.

“We’re delighted you’re honouring our brother,” said Bob Buday, adding it gave the family peace and comfort.

He added that he was pleased that this park was chosen to be named after his brother, who used to run with his dog there.

Kitsumkalum chief Don Roberts and his aunt Shirley Bolton opened up with a prayer and wel-come to everyone, saying that Kitsumkalum and Kitselas has a great relationship with the RCMP.

Terrace Mayor Carol Leclerc said she remem-bered the day Buday was killed and her shock at how something like that could happen here.

“It’s not often people, events make such an im-pact,” she said.

Chief Superintendent Rod Booth, who is in charge of the north’s RCMP detachments, was at

the dedication as was Deputy Commissioner Craig Callens, who is in charge of the RCMP’s operations in B.C.

Callens said the park dedication is a tribute to a “young member” taken too soon.

Several city councillors were on hand too as was former mayor Dave Pernarowski.

Bob Buday thanked Terrace RCMP media rela-tions and community policing Const. Angela Rabut for keeping in touch with the family while working on the dedication for many months.

“I felt I’d known her many, many years and ap-preciate what she’s done so much,” said Bob, also thanking Terrace RCMP inspector Dana Hart for doing so much too. “We’re really happy the park has become a reality. Thank-you.”

And he thanked city council for its unanimous vote for the park dedication.

He recalled how the family’s lives were devas-tated by the loss of Mike.

“The hardest part of this tragedy was seeing the pain and hurt in the eyes of our parents,” he said, pausing while talking to hold back tears.

“They say there’s nothing worse than losing a child.”

Although it’s been 30 years, Bob still remem-bered visiting his family and his dad saying “Why didn’t he look back?”

He remembered his mother with her eyes filled with tears as she still would look for Mike to come home. “Mom was happy in a way when she was dy-ing because she knew she got to be with Mike and there has been a silver lining and that silver lining is that what had been Mike’s RCMP family was our family now.”

After the dedication, a community barbecue was held at the Terrace RCMP detachment.

second book “Pack Em Up, Ride Em Out – Classic Horse Pack Trips in BC and Al-berta” at 7 p.m. April 1 in the Ed Curell Reading Room at the Terrace Public Li-brary. Slide show, book signing, snacks. When Millen began doing horse pack trips in western Canada, she had trouble deciding where to go, not because of the many options, but because information was so hard to come by. Riding the trails, she gained information about routes and shares her knowledge with readers and riders on 14 multi-day horse pack trips for experienced backcountry riders, inspired novice riders and avid hikers.

Sometimes ideas, chores, and plans energize and invigorate me. Other times, they’re para-lyzing. All the stuff that needs

doing wars with all things I want to do, and I never know what to begin with. Stymied by indecision, I can waste hours worrying and overthinking in-stead of being productive.

Our house and property have a lot of potential (Beware of that danger-laden euphemism for “work intensive, never ending project” when you buy!), but prioritizing the seemingly insurmount-able work sometimes feels impossible.

In my work life, there’s always so much to do that my brain hums a con-stant refrain of where to start, where to start.

And then there are all the annoying household tasks. Toilets need cleaned. Meals need prepared. (Hopefully not at the same time.) Laundry breeds the minute you turn your back. (Tell you something you don’t know, right?)

Contemplating my latest struggle to get down to work, however, I realized something encouraging. As much as I bellyache and feel in over my head at times, I also tackle a lot and get a lot done, so long as I remember the secret: Tackle one piece at a time.

When I was a kid, I was incredibly messy (much to the despair of my poor, clean freak mom who had a houseful of chaos-lovers.)

Even though we all did chores regu-larly, my room always looked like I’d never sorted, organized or picked it up in my life.

When ordered to clean it, over-whelmed by the looming work, I’d do what seemed most sensible to me: waste a ton of time, crying, whining, and/or playing with things I was sup-

posed to be putting away. (You’d think that at some point in my childhood I would’ve figured out procrastination didn’t help, but no. . . .)

My mom would wait, hoping if left to my own devices I’d finally incorpo-rate the strategy she tried so hard to drill into me, but as minutes turned to hours and she saw my whole day being frittered away, she’d intervene—note I did not say “do it for me.” She never did it for me. (And wow . . . it really would’ve been so much easier for her if she had. Kudos to her for her long-suffering patience!)

“Just pick up one thing at a time.” “I can’t. There’s too much.” (Whine.

Wail!)“Pick something. It doesn’t matter

what. Start with the biggest things—

like your bedding. Put it back on your bed. It’s not rocket science.”

She’d watch from the doorway to make sure I didn’t get sidetracked. “If you make your bed during this step—don’t just jumble everything in a heap—it will save work later.” (Again, this always seemed like brand new wis-dom every time I heard it.)

“Fine.” “Now pick up all your stupid stuffed

animals.” (They weren’t really stupid but I understand her frustration.) “No, don’t just throw them willy-nilly. Line them up.”

And once Raggedy Anne and Co. were all arranged: “That’s a good start. Now the Barbie stuff. I’ll be back short-ly.”

Barbies. Check. Blocks (without be-ing prodded—go me!) Check.

Mom in the doorway again. “Good. Now the Fisher Price—and you know, every time you play with one thing you don’t have to dump out every other sin-gle thing you own all at one time.” (Ha! Good one, Mom. You’re such a kidder.)

Next, groan, all the Lego. Then—voilà!—vacuum time. Once I was fin-ished I was always happily surprised. It really hadn’t been that difficult.

Final check and advice: “Good job. Now don’t you think it’d be easier to tidy as you go instead of waiting ‘til your whole room is a pigsty?” (Well, duh, Mom . . . but having a pet unicorn would also be nice.)

After ten years or so, I didn’t need constant nudging to apply my mom’s step-by-step breakdown and conquer approach. And today, yes, I still get overwhelmed and whine occasionally, but eventually I remember to just pick something and start—and there isn’t a pet unicorn in sight.

THE latest general meeting of Branch 13 of The Royal Canadian Legion commenced with the presentation of cheques to the winners of the Legion literary contest.

This contest present-ed by the Legion is in-tended to bring remem-brance to the minds of youth.

Winners of the se-niors section for the whole of Canada get a trip to Ottawa for Re-membrance Day cer-emonies there.

First place Interme-diate Black and White Poster went to Andrea DePrey.

First Place Interme-diate Colour Poster to Nav Takhar.

First Place Junior Colour Poster to Owen Lees.

First Place Interme-diate Poem went to Tay-lor Ashlyn Chant.

All first place entries were forwarded to zone and we were informed that Nav Takhar’s post-er and Taylor Ashlyn Chant’s poem were winners at sone and had been forwarded with the opportunity to be cho-sen provincially.

There were several winners of second place recognition as well.

The young people were commended and thanked for their efforts

and special mention was made of Mrs. Scott for her efforts with her class for this contest.

Following the pre-sentation to contest winners, the Zone Com-mander for the North-west, Comrade Doug Misfeldt, installed the new executive for 2015.

A report was given on the donations event held Feb. 21. Nearly $10,000 was presented to Special Olympics, Kitwanga Elementary School for its literacy program, the commu-nity band, the Pacific Northwest Music Fes-tival, Terrace Pipes and Drums, Terrace Scouts, The Salvation Army, Dry Grad, the Terrace Curling Club for its ju-

nior program, Dease Lake Guides and the Terrace Churches Food Bank.

A pleasant hour of comradeship was en-joyed.

Branch 13 now has a business centre. There are several com-puters available to our members and guests. Arrangements will be made for basic training in the use of these com-puters at certain hours to those who require it and printing of materi-als will be available.

The March 23 vet-erans dinner was held March 23 members are encouraged to come out

and enjoy a good meal and good friends.

The ladies auxiliary will hold a pie sale at the branch on Saturday afternoon March 28th.

Wage risesB.C.’S MINIMUM wage is going up by 20 cents in September, and will see annual increases to match the B.C. consumer price index each September af-ter that.

It’s the first increase since 2012, when the cur-rent wage of $10.25 was set. Jobs minister Shirley Bond said this year’s increase reflects what would have taken place if indexing to inflation had been in place at that time.

The lower minimum wage for restaurant and pub servers is being retained, going from $9 to $9.20 in September. The discount from the general minimum wage will remain at $1.25 per hour to ac-count for tips earned by servers, Bond said.

B.C. is the last province in Canada to move to an automatic formula for setting the minimum wage. The annual increase will be announced each March based on the previous year’s consumer price index, and will take effect each September.

Police were called to a residence shortly before 6 a.m. on the re-port of a suspicious man prowling in the area of the 800 block of Skaar-land Rd., reported po-lice March 20.

Officers conducted checks in the area but the man had left.

Police were called back at 7:30 a.m. when the man returned and was seen attempting to get into a garage, then entering another build-ing. The man fled from police but was caught and arrested.

Eric Hansen, 18, has been charged with prowling at night, break and enter, forging credit cards and possession of stolen property.

Police are looking for the owners of the following items:

• GMC keys stamped with Terry’s Lock

• Red Kodak Easy Share c180 camera

• Eye glasses

• Numerous pairs of brand name sunglasses

• White Fox wallet with black stripes

• Tracker black and red backpack

• Two Leatherman knives

• Thinsulate gloves

• Rogers white tele-phone

• Nextware 12 volt USB car charger

• Auxiliary cord• 8 GB Lexar flash

drive• Iroda torch with

Kevin S etched into it

THE COST of natural gas is driving up the city’s pet cremation ser-vice fees with big dog cremation experiencing the largest leap.

The cost of impound-ing dangerous dogs has also spiked.

The rises in pet cre-mation fees range from approximately $12 to $75, with most of those costs attributed to fuel-ling the city’s incinera-tor, director of devel-opment services David Block told council be-fore it voted to amend a bylaw permitting the fee increases.

Pet cremation is a “highly utilized ser-vice”, Block explained, saying right now the city’s rates are quite a bit lower compared to, for instance, Prince George.

Animal impound-ment fees are rising too, with the highest rise be-ing for dangerous dogs.

While in the past someone had to pay $100 the first time to have their animal re-turned and incremental-ly more for subsequent seizures, now it will cost them $200 each time their dangerous dog gets impounded, said Block.

RELAY FOR LIFE - THE IMPACT OF YOUR DOLLAR IN NORTHERN BC

When I donate to Relay For Life, where does the money go?Relay For Life donations allow the Canadian Cancer Society to fund critical cancer research, compassionate cancer support programs and impactful cancer prevention initiatives.

How does this help people in my community?The money raised through events like Relay For Life changes lives for people in Terrace and beyond. Just as one example, the Kordyban Lodge in Prince George has been a home away from home for 176 people from Terrace alone since it opened – and that’s just one of four cancer lodges around the province, in communities which have radiation and specialized cancer treatment. If people are travelling to one of these communities, they can access rides to treatment through a transportation program, which we provide in partnership with the Grand Lodge of the Freemasons of BC. Our peer support program CancerConnection is yet another way we help make the cancer journey easier for people.

Proud to be anEVENT SPONSOR

For the 2015 Relay For Life

WHY WE RELAYToday, over 60% of Canadian diagnosed

with cancer will survive, which is an enormous improvement from the 1940’s, when only 20% would survive. But together, we can make that number grow even higher. We believe that 80% survival is achievable with your help. We see advances every year in cancer research, and we are at a tipping point where innovative proj-ects can have an enormous impact.

People going through cancer still need our support. In the 2 years since opening the Kordy-ban Lodge in Prince George, we have provided 10,000 bed-nights to people from across the north, including 567 people from the northwest. The Lodge provides shared accommodation, three meals a day in a clean and caring envi-ronment. It is truly a “home away from home”.

The Society takes an active role in cancer prevention through advocacy and awareness programs. With tobacco still responsible for almost a third of cancer deaths, we are con-cerned about flavoured tobacco products which encourage smoking in youth. We are working for a ban on the substances. Radon is also a se-rious concern in the north, so public education is needed so that people can protect themselves from this silent carcinogen.

The money raised during Relay For Life helps to support the Canadian Cancer Society in all it sustains, but it is not just a fundraiser. It’s an event that brings communities together to cel-ebrate lives of those who have battled cancer, remember loved who have fought or are fight-ing the disease and empower individuals to fight back against cancer.

Register today and join the ordinary he-roes who are making a difference in this battle against cancer.

The Canadian Cancer Society is a national community based organization of volunteers whose mission is the eradication of cancer and the enhancement of the quality of life of people living with cancer. The Society funds research on ALL cancers, generating new knowledge on prevention, early detection treatment, quality of life and end of life care.

Overpasswidened

Pedestrians will now be able to cross at the intersection when there is a red light, something that is impossible with the current configura-tion.

Gunn said technical studies have shown that the new configuration will not cause traffic to be backed up when waiting for a green light.

“By adding the ad-ditional [left-turning] lane and with our traffic signal timing, we don’t expect there to be any backing up that would affect the other light. We have done model-ling with traffic projec-tions out to 2033 and it doesn’t show that there would be anything close that would affect that light...” he said.

Gunn added that there would be “some grade changes through-out because we are add-ing a lane but overall there won’t be a sig-nificant change in that respect.”

Transportation min-ister Todd Stone, who promised city council last fall his ministry would examine ways to improve the overpass, said last week an origi-nal idea to construct a roundabout or traffic circle at the overpass so traffic could flow more smoothly wasn’t fea-sible.

“We looked at a number of options from a technical engineering perspective and deter-mined that the most vi-able solution based on the actual site and the amount of land on the site was to have traffic signals installed there,

that ensure the maxi-mum safety for drivers at this location,” said Stone.

A second project on the overpass, to resur-face it with concrete, will take place next year.

But what will take place this year is an extensive repaving of approximately 8km of Hwy16 from the Wel-come to Terrace sign in Thornhill running west through the Hwy16/Hwy 37 four-way stop including the highway where it becomes Keith Ave. to the overpass, then picking up again on the north side run-ning west to the inter-section of Hwy16 and Kenney Ave.

Transportation min-istry officials estimate the overpass widening, its resurfacing and the

Hwy16 paving will, depending on how the bidding process goes, cost approximately $7 million.

The ministry will also build more pullouts along Hwy16.

THE SOUTHERN end of the Sande Overpass, top left, is to undergo a major reconstruction project this year when a fifth lane is added by widening the overpass, creating two lanes for traffic turning to the east. Traffic lights will also be installed on the southern end to regulate traffic in all directions. Next year, the overpass will be resurfaced.

THE TERRACE RCMP detachment says it is in-vestigating a report of a child being threatened on an aircraft flight last week.

The report, con-tained in the RCMP list of events for March 17-18 indicates a passenger threatened a two-year-old child who would not stop crying and that this upset the parents.

■ Road blockedCONTRACTORS CALLED by the city made short work of clearing a tree which keeled over March 14 on the corner of Craig and Mills on the city’s southside. It’s believed a weakened root structure caused the tree to fall over, one of several bordering the western edge of Craig along the banks of a slough.

Natural gas ratesin the regionto drop April 1THE AREA’S natural gas supplier is lowering its rates as of April 1 based on the continuing fall in the price of the commodity.

Pacific Northern Gas’s (PNG) re-duction from $4.378 a gigajoule to $3.209 a gigajoule works out to near-ly 27 per cent.

The utility will also end charging customers a separate amount that was placed in a special account meant to balance over time what the utility was paying for gas and what it actually cost.

Gas costs have been less than what the utility has estimated, meaning it will now start repaying customers out of that account in what will be an ad-ditional rate reduction, PNG official Verlon Otto said March 19.

All told, PNG says its new com-modity rate, after receiving approval from the regulator BC Utilities Com-mission March 19, will be 34 per cent less on April 1 then it is now.

“Like other utilities, we look at the forward price for gas and it’s be-low our projections,” said Otto of the lower rates.

“The price is a matter of supply and demand on the world market and right now, there’s a glut. There’s been a lot of media about oil and this is simply the same, there’s a glut of gas.”

“For the consumer, this is good news,” Otto added of the new rates.

He noted that the pricing situation is a lot different than even five years ago when the cost of a gigajoule of gas was more than $10.

PNG is a gas delivery utility and earns its income from delivering gas, not selling it. As a delivery utility, it is not permitted to mark up the price of gas it purchases and then provides to customers.

Provided a house uses 72 giga-joules of natural gas a year, which is the average consumption PNG uses in its calculations, its occupants will

save $114.85 a year.Even with the price of gas drop-

ping, however, northwestern gas cus-tomers will still be paying some of the highest overall rates in the province.

That’s because residential, com-mercial and other northwestern gas users began shouldering more of the burden of paying to maintain PNG’s gas line through the area after large industrial gas users began closing down over the past two decades.

Without the income from those large users, including one pulp mill in Prince Rupert and another in Kitimat, rates to maintain the line for remain-ing users began to climb.

PNG’s northwest residential cus-tomers, for example, pay a delivery charge of $11.867 a gigajoule com-pared to Vancouver customers of Fortis, a large gas utility, who pay a combined delivery and storage rate of just $4.881 a gigajoule, approxi-mately one-third of the rate paid in the northwest.

When all of PNG’s commodity and delivery rates are calculated, resi-dential customers will pay $18.628 a gigajoule as of April 1.

That’s a reduction of 7.9 per cent from what the total gigajoule cost is now.

The total rate includes the provin-cial government’s carbon tax of $1.49 a gigajoule.

For an average residential user, that tax amounts to $107.27 a year.

The one hope for lower northwest-ern PNG rates rests with a plan by its parent, AltaGas of Calgary, to pump gas through its northwest line for a small liquefied natural gas plant at Kitimat.

AltaGas is a partner in this project which would see gas liquefied on a barge for export.

Income from pumping gas through the PNG line would then go to main-taining the line and bring lower rates for existing PNG customers.

It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Frank Dennis Kraft on March 13, 2015 in Terrace, BC. He was 58 years old.

Dennis was born to William Kraft and Jean Baker (nee His-lop) at the Terrace and District Hospital September 26, 1956. He was the second eldest of four children. Following the passing of his Dad, William, Dennis and his three siblings were adopted by Stepfather, Law-rence Baker who Dennis adored.

Dennis lived in Terrace until grade 10 when he decided to explore the world and join the air force at age 16. He was based in CFB Cornwallis, N.S., CFB Trenton, ON., and CFB Cypress, Egypt before re-tiring after 6 years and relocating to Edmonton to take work as a long haul trucker, which allowed him to see most of North America and fulfill his love for travel.

In 2000, Dennis came back to his roots in his home-town of Terrace BC, where he filled his time doing jigsaw puzzles, taking day trips, and road trips with his mom. He was also a prominent volunteer at the Happy Gang Centre as well as The Elks and Royal Purple where his parents spent many years in service for the organization. Dennis could be found every Victoria Day serving the kids hot dogs for the annual Elks and Royal Purple Kids Day in the Park. And if he wasn’t there, you could proba-bly find him on the bench in a rousing game of Sticks or Ukrainian Rummy for quarters with family.

Dennis is survived by one son, Johnathan William (last name unknown) of Edmonton, Alberta; siblings Peggy (Stan) Sweet, Edwin Kraft and Dale Kraft. Niec-es Tamara (Andrew) Letts and Janine (Scott) Wilson, Nephews Kris Sweet and Garett Kraft plus numerous aunts, uncles, great aunts, great uncles and many second cousins and friends. He is predeceased by father William Kraft (d: 1964), Stepfather Lawrence Baker (d: 2005) and mother Lavona Jean Baker (d: 2014).

A small service will be held at the Elks Hall Thursday March 26th at 1pm. Friends and family are welcome.

Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m freeI’m following the path God has laid you see.I took his hand when I heard His callI turned my back and left it all.I could not stay another day,To laugh, to love, to work or play.Tasks left undone must stay that way.I found peace at the close of day.If my parting has left a voidTh en fi ll it with remembered joys.A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,O yes, these things I too will miss.Be not burdened with times of sorrow.I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.My life’s been full, I savored much,Good friends, good times, a loved one’s touch.Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief.Lift up your hearts and peace to thee,God wanted me now, He set me free.

■ Special swimPHOEBE CHARRON and Keegan Haines are two of the five Terrace swimmers who hosted the Terrace Special Olympics Invitational at the aquatic centre March 14. Five Smithers swimmers joined them in the pool for a fun competition in breast stroke, freestyle, and back crawl, marking the beginning of a potential provincial run in 2016. Head coach Ruth Couette said the day was great thanks to her assistant coach Allison Haugland and the Terrace Bluebacks, who acted as sup-port. “Without their expertise and their past experience about setting up tournaments, we wouldn’t have gotten nearly the enjoyment that we did out of it that we did, they were excellent,” said Couette, who noted that while there is a history of the Bluebacks and Special Olympics working together, this was the first invitational in over four years. “It’s kind of nice to resurrect something that was held on an ongoing basis,” she said. “Kind of gives me a little more motivation to keep it going.”

Midgets grab gold at provincials – again

WITH TWO team members absent and an ad-ditional player from Smithers added to the team, the northwest B.C. 16U Northern Fusion Team came home as Silver Medalists from the North-ern Invitational in Prince George.

This was the first official tournament for the elite volleyball team and the girls started on Sat-urday, March 7 by playing a familiar team, the Terrace Rage – the club’s 15U Girls team.

As always the competition was fierce. The 16U Northern Fusion took the match in both sets but not without a fight from the Terrace Rage.

First set was 25 to 14 and the second set was close at 25 to 23.

The second match was with a Prince George House League team. They took the first set by 25 to 23, but with Northern Fusion’s team determi-nation the Terrace-based squad won the second set, taking the team to the 3rd set where they eased into a 15 to 3 win. Gillian Frank’s difficult serving was too much for the other team to de-fend, she managed 11 straight serves.

The team expected an intense final matchup with the Prince George Kodiak 16U girls – and it was neck and neck.

The first set was won by the Kodiaks 25 – 23, took the second set 25 to 23, and dug deep for the third set win 15 to 13. “We had many Ter-race spectators rooting us all [on] which really picked up the spirits,” said coach Cam Siemens.

The team went into Sunday first in their pool and came up against the PG Kodiaks 14U Boys team, once again up for the challenge, and the result was very close games. Northern Fusion took the first set and the boys took the second set. The team went to the third set with the goal of playing smart and meaningful plays and took the final set 15 to 13.

Then it was time for the gold matchup with a team their rivals from Saturday, the 16U Kodiak Girls. The game did not disappoint the specta-tors, with amazing plays had by both teams and both sets going into overtime. But in the end the Prince George team won in both sets, 27 - 25, and 26 - 24. Such a strong showing of teamwork and sheer determination from the 16U girls team, said Siemens.

THE TERRACE Midget Reps after becoming provincial champions March 18.

WELL, IT wasn't easy, but they did it.

The Terrace Midget Rep Kermodes are provincial cham-pions for the second year in a row after defeating Quesnel 3-1 in an epic northern B.C. final March 18 in Dawson Creek.

“It was a squealer I’ll tell ya, holy smokes,” said coach Rory Reinbolt, who coaches with his son Sam, and Dave Kawinsky. “They played with two lines rather than three and I thought they would be tired by the second game but I think they had more gas in their tank than we did when it got near to the end. We were up 2-1 and they were hungry and we were trying to hold on. It was fast and furious and frantic at the end there.”

It was an uphill battle to get to the championship after a tough loss in game one to Sooke. That meant every game was a must-win for the Ter-race reps, but they rose to the challenge, beating Cranbrook, South Okanagan, and Co-quitlam to make it to the final against Quesnel.

Terrace opened scoring in the final at 11:12 with a goal by Fred Mowatt and took a 1-0 lead going into the sec-ond. Connor Onstein scored at 17:25, making it 2-0 for Ter-race. Quesnel replied at 11:48 in the third with a goal by Ri-ley Kyle.

“Very exciting,” said Rein-bolt. “They played very well, either team could have won that one, so I guess it was our turn.”

He chalks up part of the

success to the 11 vets on the team – the boys who won the provincial championship last year. “They get to do it all over again and I think that really helps as well, helps kind of stabilize things,” he said.

A clutch performance by the Terrace goalie, Dion John-ston, didn’t hurt either.

“Last game, our goalie was just crazy,” he said. “I think they had four breakaways blueline in and he stoned them. And the last minute-and-a-half they pulled their goalie and had some quality opportunities as well. He stood on his head.

“We had our chances too

– the Quesnel goalie played well,” he said. “We were all very happy to see that empty net goal roll in from our zone into the net, everybody knew we’d done it and it was all over, a big long season with our goal finally met. It was pretty exciting.”

Not only is the win sweet for the 11 returning players who get to take hold of the banner once again and leave minor hockey on a major high note, but it's especially vin-dicating for the players who were on the bronze-winning bantam team last year. For sev-eral years Terrace teams have

been standing out at provin-cials, something Reinbolt says could be attributed to more training time because of the second set of ice – Terrace has been able to get past Smithers, a team which in the past was very hard to beat, and other northwest teams for a number of years now.

“You never know, you get a batch of kids and you get a batch of coaches, and you get a good minor hockey executive and everyone pulls together as a team they can pull over the top,” he said.

Outside, planes taxi, take off and land in the morning sun. Men in covered in blue coveralls, wear-ing headphone style ear protec-

tors ride about on tow tractors, fuel transfer vehicles, waste trucks, and small vehicles that look like fork lifts without forks. Oth-ers push luggage containers, others dollies, while others guide aircraft or walk about purposefully on missions mysterious to me. The activity borders on frenetic, must be enveloped in noise, yet through the thick glass wall at the west end of YVR watching it is like watching a silent movie. A grey haired, grey bearded gentleman with a professorial look sits, long legs out-stretched reading a book on the row of soft seats located on the far side of the potted palm next to where I’m sitting. Behind us, in the distance, people sit awaiting the call to board planes bound for the interior and the Island.

The gates at the extremities of the Van-couver International are oases of peace and quiet. There isn’t even any insipid canned music. I unzip its travel bag and slide my little inexpensive French Canadian made guitar from its case, get the blood flowing to my hands with a few pentatonic scales, read through a folio of short pieces, then start in on some Sambas I’ve been working on recently, thinking that because I’m pur-posely playing sotto voce, the sound won’t carry far. I look up at one point to see a young woman with her phone aimed at me making a video.

Do you mind if I send it to a friend? she asks.

I tell her no I don’t. She presses her phone and thanks me.

A glance at my wristwatch confirms the plane to Prince George will be leaving soon. I slide the guitar back into its bag. As I am, the professor walks over and thanks me for play-ing.

It was so nice and tranquil, he says.

I tell him that I’m glad he enjoyed it and that I am surprised he could hear it.

He tells me it really carries. The last call for the flight to PG comes,

and I’m shocked I missed the first two. As I gather my stuff and shoulder my back pack and am about to scramble off to Gate 4, an elegant, tall, grey haired woman appears and thanks me for the impromptu concert.

Got to be off, I say, but thank you so much.

I’m last aboard. No Sky Check? I ask the flight atten-

dant.We have large overhead compartments,

she says, taking my guitar and slipping it neatly into the one over my seat.

Window seat. Bonus, I think.

I’ve never flown on Friday the 13th, I say to the woman next to me. I hope we make it.

The look of alarm on her face reveals it hasn’t occurred to her that to-day is the 13th. She manages a faint, uncon-vincing laugh.

Soon we’re airborne. It’s a beautiful cloudless day. Cars are lined up for ferries at Horseshoe Bay. The plane paral-lels the murderous Sea to Sky Highway past Lions Bay, past Porteau, past the Britannia. I spot

the Chief and remember as a boy watching the men who first successfully climbed the face. We approach the city of Squamish. I try to pick out the rivers. The Squamish is obvious. A tributary I think is the Stawa-mus, then what I believe is the Mamquam. After that the Checkamus and the Cheek-eye, and then, far up the valley, what must be the Ashlu and the Elaho. There is Daisy Lake then Whistler, the ski runs are clearly visible. After that I lose my bearings over top ice fields and snow covered peaks.

The engines hum. There is the riffle of card shuffling, the counting of cribbage hands, and conversation behind me. The

flight attendants pour drinks and dole out pretzels made of food product and salt as we make our way over a rugged moun-tainous landscape punctuated with frozen lakes for a good ten minutes.

I look away from the window for a few seconds. When I look back there is a vi-sual gut punch. Below us now is a massive crazy quilt of clear cuts, each patch defined by a logging road seam, extending to the horizon. The mosaic is awesome in the true terrifying sense of the word. I scan the 180 degrees available to me; the nuances are different, but the view is essentially the same. Here, spread out below me, is the sum total of annual allowable cuts and the egregious over cutting, euphemistically called over harvest, justified and excused under the pretext of obliterating bugs. Here then is contiguous clearcutting that can be seen from the space shuttles, apparently. I speculate on the environmental wallop that must have attended this undertaking and its downstream impact as we pass over it for what seems a preposterously long time.

Prince George becomes visible in the distance, framed by the Fraser and Necha-ko rivers and marked by the plume of efflu-ent – the shape of the balloons on Google Earth, but white not red – spewing from the Canfor Pulp Mill that contaminates the PG airshed.

We land. We made it, says the lady next to me,

smiling faintly.Maybe, I reply. Maybe not.

Bantams take bronze THE TERRACE Kermode Bantam Reps captured bronze with a 4-0 win over South Okanagan at Tier 3 provincials in Port Hardy March 18.

The team had a strong start to the tourney, slamming Squamish 10-0 and scoring six goals in the last half of the third period to take Kerry Park 8-6 in game two. The team took a 3-2 loss to South Okanagan in game three.

Then after a hard fought 3-1 loss to White-horse (the eventual B.C. champions) Terrace played south Okanagan for third – and handily beat them 4-0.

With Trevor Ebeling starting the scoring, Jared Moth came in with a spectacular effort for the second goal.

Trevor Ebeling scored the third goal and Quinn Mulder finished off the scoring for Ter-race. And goalie Josh Fernandes collected his second shutout of the 2015 provincials.

Female reps come closeIT WAS a tightly contested Female Midget Rep provincial tournament in Penticton –and the Terrace Kermodes came oh so close, fall-ing 3-1 in overtime in the bronze medal final against the Williams Lake Timberwolves.

The Kermodes opened up the tournament with a win against the home team before los-ing to Richmond in game two. A win against Cranbrook followed by a sudden death over time loss to Midget Impact set them up for the bronze medal game. Terrace got on the board first at 10:39 on a goal from Ashley Kuehne, assisted by Lauren Smaha-Muir. Terrace’s Grace Kennedy scored at 2:38 on a pass from Bailey Kasum to finish period one.

The game went back and forth with Wil-liams Lake clocking a goal in the second and the third to tie it up and force overtime, which Williams Lake would ultimately win.

AFTER QUALIFYING to send a U16B team to the tournament, the Terrace ringette association made a play at BC Ringette Pro-vincials in Vernon March 5 to 8 – and al-though they lost all their games, they gained some valuable experience.

“The team practised hard all year to get to this point, with games both won and lost in the Northern League,” said the association’s Erika Nicholson. “There is a bit of a disadvan-tage in the north (as many other sports teams can attest to), there are few kids playing sports and often the same kids play multiple sports.”

The Terrace team’s travelling distances are greater than in the southern league, and there are few teams to play against in the north, so the opportunity to face off against a number of teams in one setting was an important stepping stone for the team.

“The Terrace U16B played outstand-ing against teams from the Fraser Val-ley, Kelowna, Burnaby, and Vernon,” said Nicholson. “A great effort from amazing groups of girls.”

There were also four other Terrace play-ers that played on two Prince George teams

at the provincial tournament. Hannah Resch and Peter Nicholson played on the PG U19B, this team played some strong back-and-forth games before unfortunately settling for fourth place. Rory Bird and Ai-mee Qualizza, from Terrace, played on the PG 18+ (open) team which ended up with the silver medal, due to the strong support of the Terrace players, said Nicholson.

“Terrace has produced some great Rin-gette players and the association hopes to carry on this tradition into the future,” she said.

Green LEAF on an Eco-Run

Driveway’s Alexandra Straub will pilot an all-electric Nis-san LEAF in the annual AJAC Eco-Run next week.The all-electric sedan, which is also the prize car provided by the Scrap-It program for our Plug-In to Win contest, will glide silently from the Vancouver International Auto Show in downtown Vancouver next Wednesday. The route, devised by the Automobile Journalists Asso-ciation of Canada, will then take the participating 19 eco-friendly vehicles to Victo-ria via the Nanaimo ferry. On Thursday, the vehicles will be put through their paces on a handling course in Langford to see how versatile they are. The EcoRun concludes that evening in Vancouver.In addition to pure elec-tric vehicles, the Eco-Run

includes plug-in and conventional hybrids, as well as vehicles powered by hydrogen fuel cells, diesel-fu-elled powertrains and highly efficient gasoline options. There’s no limit to the size of vehicle showcased, as they range from subcompacts to pickup trucks. The participants include the 2015 Hyundai Tucson Fuel Cell, 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel, 2015 Kia Soul EV, 2015 Ford Focus 1.0-litre, 2015 Acura RLX Sport Hybrid and the 2015 Chevy Volt.The purpose of the event is to inform consumers of these alternative options. These new vehicles are driven in real-world road conditions in order to fully test for fuel efficiency and the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions.

Scrap your old gas-guzzler; it’s auto showtimeBritish Columbia’s SCRAP-IT Program has announced a new incentive program aimed at removing high polluting vehicles from our roads, on the eve of this year’s Vancouver International Auto Show. The new incentive allows purchasers of a qualifying new electric vehicle, who scrap their 2000 or older vehicle, to receive a $3,000 rebate. This program is separate from the BC Government’s eco-car incentive scheme, the details of which will be announced at next week’s show. “This is a fantastic program whose ultimate goal is to remove older high polluting vehicles from our roads,” said SCRAP-IT Program CEO Dennis Rogoza. “Vehicles model 2000 or older emit up to 60 times more emissions than later models and electric vehicles have even much lower emissions.”Qualifying electric vehicles are listed on the SCRAP-IT.ca website. As part of this program’s launch, SCRAP-IT has supplied a contest prize car in the shape of a new all-electric Nissan LEAF (see Plug-in to Win contest details right). The LEAF will be on display at the SCRAP-IT auto show booth in the Vancouver Convention Centre West (March 24-29). While eco-cars aren’t the central theme this

year, new executive show director Jason Heard wittily promises“an electrifying show experience with lots of greenery on show!”“You won’t need to go too far to see green… the Green Ride and Drive is at the only entrance

at Thurlow. You can try out one of 14 green vehicles from hybrids to pure electrics and see what makes them tick.” Inside a wide array of green vehicles are parked on Electric Avenue. But there’s lots more to feast your eyes upon this year.“Anyone can add space to a show but we feel we have filled it with new content to deliver a much more rounded experience. The show is about new cars but it has to entertain, be exciting and make you wanting more year after year.”The Super Cars and Exotics are back. On opening night, there will be super cars valued at $15 million on the plaza. Every kid will want to eyeball the 100 per cent electric Big Foot Monster Truck. There are also some sharp looking concepts, such as the Cadillac Elmiraj (pictured above).

This year’s showstopper could well be a 1963 Lincoln Convertible, supplied by Abbotsford’s 360 Fabrication, which is now applying the fi-nal touches to the $1 million dollar restoration (pictured above).Heard is excited about a new display called

Car Culture, which focuses on the vehicles and the lifestyles that drive

them. Feature vehicles are displayed in themed settings, featuring acces-sories and backdrops.Classic Alley offers a stroll back through time while Hollywood

North pays tribute to the cars we see on movie sets around town. Just a sample

of what’s up at the show. The rest of our Drive-way crew (drivewaybc.ca) looks new cars on display at [email protected]

Several new crossovers will be featured at this year’s Vancouver auto show.Honda recently revealed for the first time at the Chicago and Toronto auto shows, the all-new Pilot. Gone is the boxy three-row vehicle, replaced by a sleeker, more stylish design. Now equipped with LED headlights and LED daytime running lights, along with available 20-inch wheels and panoramic sunroof, this is a modern take on family hauling. The Pilot is powered by a 3.5L V6 engine, matched to a six-speed automatic transmission or an optional nine-speed unit. This new model will be sold with front or all wheel drive and because it is 135kg lighter than the last model it should be more efficient.Mercedes is renaming the M-Class as the GLE. GL refers to an SUV/Crossover and the E is the “E-Class of SUVs”. To confuse things a bit more, the

first debut is the GLE Coupe, a sportier coupe-like SUV designed to compete with the BMW X6. This Mercedes, with its sleeker silhouette and powerful 262-hp biturbo V6, looks great. It will range from comfort to all-out performance.The Acura RDX has been a big hit for this premium brand. Based on the ever-popular Honda CR-V, this Acura is filled with lots of luxury touches for a mod-est price. The 2016 RDX showcases the latest look of the Acura family. The dual LED headlamps and improved interior design, including two screens in the centre of the dash, puts the RDX in line with the new TLX and recent MDX. Good news is that the trusty V6 engine will stay for 2016.Hyundai has announced that they it will start leas-ing Hydrogen Fuel Cell Tucson SUVs to Canadians this year, with the Vancouver area being the first market to receive these world-class vehicles. This is an electric SUV but instead of getting electric-ity from the grid it is produced using an onboard

hydrogen fuel cell. The owner fills the fuel tank with hydrogen, not gasoline, and drives normally. The fuel cell Tucson can go 420 kilometres on one tank of fuel, a range about which electric car manufac-turers can only dream. Ford has one of the best selling SUVs of all time in the Explorer, with more than 350,000 sold in Cana-da so far. The all-new 2016 version made available a 2.3L EcoBoost engine on the base and XLT trim. The 290hp 3.5L V6 engine is carried over but the Sport trim and new Platinum trim will be fitted with the 365hp Ecoboost V6. The new Platinum model will be fitted with real aluminum and ash wood accents, plus leather will trim the steering wheel, instrument panel, armrests, doors and other trim. Range Rover has two new versions of the Range Rover Sport. The most popular will be the all-new 3.0L diesel engine that produces a whopping 440 lb.-ft. of torque and better fuel consumption. In fact, Range Rover claims a 32 percent improvement over

the regular V6 model. On the high performance end is the Range Rover SVR, capable of a run to 100 km/h in just 4.7 seconds. This will be the first Range Rover to sport the new SVR (Special Vehicle Racing) badge.Prices remain to be finalized on most of these vehicles at press [email protected]
