Chelsea Olsen was left shocked and

wondering if her children were okay after a logging truck t-boned her minivan at the corner of Second Avenue and Argyle Street the morning of Feb. 16.

“I was driving up Argyle and the truck failed to stop at the stop sign on Second Avenue,” said Olsen. Her two six-year-old boys, Rain and Kane, were in the car with her when the empty logging truck hit the van.

“I noticed him slowing as he approached the stop sign, but he just slowed and continued through, resulting In

him hitting my van in the middle of the intersection.”

The RCMP issued the logging truck a violation ticket for failing to yield the right of way, Cpl. Amelia Hayden said. The truck approached the intersection from the south, driving down the hill.

“On approach to the intersection, the logging truck slowed down but failed to come to a complete stop at the stop sign, rolling into the intersection and colliding with the passenger door of the mini van,” Hayden said.

“Weather was noted as a contributing factor as there was light fog and light rain at the time of the crash.”

From A1Olsen said that while she

couldn’t tell exactly, she didn’t think that the driver of the logging truck noticed her van at all.

“I’m not 100 per cent sure [but] I don’t think he noticed me at all and if he did it was at the last second,” Olsen said.

“It didn’t seem to me like he put his brakes on before impact because I was watching and I yelled ‘he isn’t stopping’, and tried to turn out of the way.”

The truck collided with the sliding passenger door on the right side of the van and bent it in severely.

“My six-year-old was in that seat [by the crushed door] and the door was touching him when I pulled him out,” she said, adding that her other son was in the seat just behind him. Both boys were in car seats.

While Olsen is still unsettled by the crash, she feels lucky it wasn’t any worse.

“Rain and Kane are only complaining of soreness and headaches. I’m quite stiff and sore throughout my neck and back but luckily that’s it,” she said. ICBC is still reviewing whether or not her vehicle is a write-off but she and her family have been able to procure a new vehicle.

“Luckily he wasn’t going any faster; if he was there would be a totally different outcome.”

Living on First Avenue, this isn’t the first time Olsen has been exposed to truck drivers where they shouldn’t be.

“I live on First Avenue, so my routes are either the industrial [Harbour] road, along the Quay, or Third Avenue, both are fully populated with large trucks,

when they should only be using the industrial road and continuing along the road behind the train station,” she said.

Though Olsen—and the police—both say the truck driver should have come to a complete stop before driving across Argyle Street, Olsen doesn’t think he should have been there at all.

“The main issue is he didn’t stop, he slowed, and must not have checked both ways, assumed it was clear and continued and must have glanced the other way,” she said.

“After this I have taken notice of all the trucks on the roads, and I haven’t seen one that has committed to a full stop—which maybe is difficult for them to do, but

that is why they shouldn’t be on the main streets.”

Olsen isn’t alone in that thought.

The City of Port Alberni has been considering a dedicated truck route for decades and the issue was brought back to the top of council’s priority list by Coun. Chris Alemany in September 2015.

At the time, Alemany told the rest of council that he had received numerous complaints about the trucks on Third Avenue.

“From a perspective of safety and trying to encourage people to go into Uptown... it would be really good if we could at least encourage companies to take alternate routes when they’re going up to Ship Creek,” he said at the time.

Alemany wasn’t the only one to be concerned—Anderson Avenue resident Vicki Drybrough came to council in November to express concern over the number of trucks in her neighbourhood.

“We have more than enough truck traffic already,” said Drybrough.

“Dump trucks, fuel trucks, tanker trucks, logging trucks, chip trucks, scrap trucks and lumber trucks to name a few.”

But despite Drybrough’s concerns, Alemany still thinks that Anderson Avenue is the best location for industrial traffic—and even more so after last week’s accident.

“I think—and the Anderson residents will hate me for it—I think our only option that we have to get to Ship Creek is the Anderson Avenue corridor,” he said.

“That’s where a lot of industrial traffic is already going.”

Alemany is open to having a discussion with Anderson Avenue residents about how to mitigate issues that could be caused by living on a truck route, particularly where safety is concerned.

“We never did get a full discussion with the residents to get an idea of what they would like to see as far as improvements.”

But while Alemany prefers Anderson Avenue, council seems to be moving towards Harbour Road.

Mayor Mike Ruttan said that negotiations with Western Forest Products on the topic are “proceeding well” and at a staff level.

“The industrial users are incredibly flexible and willing to work with us,” he said, adding that he sees a possibility for cost savings.

KRISTI DOBSONSPECIAL TO THE NEWS

After months of preparing to host a refugee family of seven, the Port Alberni Refugee Sponsorship Group recently found out that the Syrian family has been declined entry into Canada.

The news last Thursday came as a shock to group member, Pamela Day.

“It was disappointing,” Day said. “It came as a surprise because we were expecting them any minute.

“The latest news we had was that it was just a matter of getting them a flight.”

Although the Canadian government did not give a reason for the family’s failure to pass screening into the country, the group has been assured another family will be assigned to Port Alberni. Day said there is nothing they can do but wait.

“This has happened

to a group in Victoria and sometimes we hear it is just simple things,” Day said. “Something was found to be a problem at the last minute.”

She is confident a family will be moving into the rental house the group has completely furnished. It might take up to a few months, following the government’s relocation of families on a priority basis by the end of February.

The PARSC is now submitting the required documents to Immigration Canada.

“There is no chance we won’t get a family,” Day said. “There are so many in need and the program we are going through selects the families who are most in need.”

For now, some of the household furnishings are being stored at Trinity Church and only minor changes in the house will take place depending on the size of the family and age of children.

PARSC has raised almost $29,000 through community donations. Anything not required will be used by a family assigned to the Holy Family Notre Dame sponsor group, given to another family or donated to charity.

“We are ready for the next family,” Day said.

Students at A.W. Neil Elementary School are being educated on safety measures to use when walking to and from school, says superintendent of schools Greg Smyth.

Smyth on Tuesday told school trustees that recent traffic congestion issues in and around A.W. Neil have prompted teachers to have conversations with kids about how to be safe when walking around the school.

Vehicle congestion has become more prominent with the addition of a parking lot on Short Street behind the school this year.

Smyth said some people are preferring not to use this access into the school and are instead parking on Compton Road in front

of the school.“The principal at

Neill will be working with parents to remind them that they can do their kids a huge service by being more mindful of the traffic in and around the school,” Smyth said.

Detours have been suggested by the school but Smyth said only about one in 10 people are using the alternate routes to avoid the congestion.

Smyth said other than a few long traffic backups along Beaver Creek Road

and Compton there haven’t been any significant issues due to the recent congestion.

No additional traffic monitoring or flaggers have been warranted.

Parking congestion an issue at A.W. Neill

Use common ‘scents’: SD70KARLY BLATSALBERNI VALLEY NEWS

School District 70 has a new policy for schools in the district to become

scent-considerate environments.

Superintendent of schools Greg Smyth said at Tuesday’s school board meeting

it is “incredibly difficult” to implement a scent-free environment because some scents can be hard to mask.

He suggested working towards “scent-considerate” environments instead.

Under the new policy students, parents and school district staff will be asked to avoid heavily scented products when entering SD70 facilities.

The new policy will be presented and shared with staff and students in classrooms and through signage around schools.

Smyth said if there are situations when someone has a noticeably powerful scent, administration is authorized to ask students to be more sensitive when using body sprays and other scent-related [email protected]

It takes a bit of luck to have one child born on Feb. 29. It takes a heck of a lot more to have two sisters born on consecutive ‘leap days.’

That’s what happened with Port Alberni-born sisters Marilyn Johnston, 56, and Jeannette Wiens, 52.

“My sister Jeanette and I were both born in Port Alberni in the 1960s,” said Johnston.

“Unfortunately, [we]

had to move when our dad started logging in Prince George. Believe me when I say I was heartbroken to leave Port Alberni!”

Johnston still has many fond memories of Port Alberni.

“I was only seven (1.75 in leap years) and she was just three (so not even one leap year yet) but my memories of Port [Alberni] were so vivid. I had the best childhood there. My

grandma Eva Quesnel worked at the post office for many years.”

The sisters try to come back often.

“We came back to visit lots of friends and relatives almost every year and would always drive around to all the places we lived: Cherry Creek, Third Avenue, Beaver Creek and the house with the red steps,” said Johnston.

The two girls were born four years apart

and even as their lives have taken them in different directions, they’ve met up every ‘leap day’ to celebrate their real birthdays.

This year, the two sisters are celebrating their birthday in Abbotsford, where Wiens lives. Johnston lives in Kelowna.

“[We’re] looking forward to coming back to Port in the near future for a long overdue visit,” Johnstons said.

“We are hoping to do a reunion next summer there 2017.”

Jeannette Wiens and Marilyn Johnston were Port Alberni’s leap year babies.

JACQUELINECARMICHAELSPECIAL TO THE NEWS

Rain, sleet, even Ottawa’s worst snowstorm since 1947 —nothing stops Gord Johns, MP for Courtenay-Alberni.

The NDP member of parliament has biked to work every day so far in the 42nd Parliament—including last Wednesday’s ‘snowmaggeddon.’

All public servants were off the road, except for the House of Commons, “which has to keep going,” Johns said.

“It was really fun. There were very few cars on the road,” he said.

“I definitely felt I made the right decision to be riding a bike instead of buying a car.”

Prior to being elected in October, Johns was accustomed to riding his bike around Tofino, where annual rainfall can hit or exceed 12 feet.

Ottawa has proven a challenge – one he’s up to.

“You’re riding through some pretty tough weather,” he said, citing trouble

getting his bike’s lock unfrozen so it could open.

“The bike racks are so snowy I’ve had to put my bike on TOP of the rack,” Johns said.

“I’ve ridden to work with windchills of minus-35 (degrees Celsius).”

Johns is often joined in cycling to work by Nathan Cullen, the MP for Skeena Bulkley Valley.

While in Tofino, an unlocked bike is

often an invitation to a joy ride, security in Ottawa is great, Johns said.

“I probably have the best bike security in the country—there are four or five RCMP cars right outside the bike rack,” he said.

Johns, who serves as the NDP’s critic for small business and tourism, is working to organize a weekly bike ride for MPs from across political party lines beginning in

May. Ottawa has an “incredible bike trail system,” he said.

“Most MPs have a driver or take a taxi. I am pretty happy to feel a little bit more like I am at home,” Johns said.

Riding his bike is about his own health, and that of the planet, Johns said.

“I know it’s a very small part, but I’ve tried to reduce my footprint as a member of parliament.

“Everything I do, I try to think about lowering my footprint.

His daily commute of choice is a 15-minute ride on a mountain bike he got used on Kijiji. He leaves home at 6 a.m. and gets home at 10 p.m.

The good thing about that long day?

“I’m not really riding in traffic,” he said.

In terms of a commute back to his home constituency that straddles Vancouver Island, Johns has one of the longest journeys in the House of Commons, with a 12.5-hour journey home.

“I have a lot of understanding from my colleagues about the distance I travel,” he said.

Snow won’t stop MP

Not even record snowfall could stop Gord John, MP for Courtenay-Alberni, from riding his bike to parliament in Ottawa in February 2016.

Should you have any questions about any aspect of this program, please feel free to contact Mr. Marc Fryer at École Alberni Elementary.

Hearing loss is the third most common chronic health condition affecting older adults. Approximately 30% of individuals aged 65 and older have some degree of hearing loss, with estimates ranging from 70% to 90% of those aged 85 and older.“Hearing loss has often been associated with depressive symptoms and social isolation, which supports the hypothesis that social isolation and depressive symptomatology may mediate the association between hearing loss and cognitive decline.”

PAFD retires firetruck

The Port Alberni Fire Dept will retire a 40-year-old firetruck, from its fleet.

The older a firetruck gets, the less reliable it becomes, said Deputy Fire Chief Wes Patterson.

Tender 12 has reached the end of its life as an emergency water supply vehicle and will be sold to the Western Vancouver Island Industrial Heritage Society for the price of $1.

Home Show gets banner

Council granted permission for Evergreen Exhibitions to hang their banner across 10th Avenue near Echo Centre from March 7–13. The banner promotes the 26th annual Spring Home Show at Glenwood Sports Centre, to be held on March 12–13.

YPAV goes nuts for new trees

Council will provide a letter of support to the Young Professionals of the Alberni Valley to coincide with their grant application to purchase and plant nut trees on the Dry Creek Community Garden site.

The YPAV is applying for $4,000 to put towards nut-producing trees for the City of Port Alberni.

Wildfire protection

The City of Port Alberni isn’t waiting for the summer fire season to become dire before agreeing to provide standby coverage and initial attack response assistance for forest fires on its boundaries with Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations property.

Council has pre-approved its support this year, which will mean quick negotiations could take place whenever the ministry needed help.

INBRIEF Cleanup begins on Cameron LakeKARLY BLATSALBERNI VALLEY NEWS

A semi-truck carrying wood chips remains in Cameron Lake at an unknown depth after driving off the Alberni Highway at approximately 8:30 a.m. Feb. 21.

The 2002 Freightliner Truck and trailer was heading inbound to Port Alberni when the driver lost control and drove off the highway near Angel Rock according Oceanside RCMP Cpl. Jesse Forman. The truck’s trailer leaned and flipped, dragging the tractor over the concrete and into the lake, spilling oil and Hemlock woodchips.

The driver, a 45-year-old male and passenger, a 49-year-old female, both from Campbell River, escaped the

vehicle with relatively minor injuries and were treated by BC Ambulance personnel.

The truck had approximately 500 litres of diesel and approximately 100 litres of hydraulic oil on board according to the Ministry of Environment. The day after the crash 600

feet of containment boom lined with absorbent material was installed around a visible oil slick and two boats from Western Marine Spill Response Corporation were on site booming and sweeping.

David Karn, senior public affairs officer at the Ministry of

Environment, said things at the crash site are going well and that a vacuum truck will be on site soon to begin cleanup of the woodchips from the

shoreline. Barry Pyle,

owner of Cheyenne Contracting, the Coal Harbour trucking company that owns the truck, said both

occupants are doing fine and that they’re very lucky to have escaped with minor injuries.

Cheyenne Trucking has contracted West Coast Marine Response Corporation and Nucor Environmental for the cleanup, according to an MOE spokesperson.

Forman said the RCMP have been to the site of the crash to examine tire marks and skids but the case is still on-going.

Until the truck is out of the lake there’s not a lot they can do to further investigate, he [email protected]

City of Port Alberni residents will see a proposed extra $17 on their residential tax bill courtesy of the regional district.

“The tax impact of the Alberni-Clayoquot Regional District, based on a property of $175,000, would realize a net increase of $17 based on the budget as it is,” regional district CAO Russell Dyson told city council on Monday night.

The $17 includes a proposed requisition from the Alberni-Clayoquot Hospital Network (something that is paid every year).

The budget bylaw for the ACRD has yet to receive its first reading by the board of directors nor has it gone to a public session yet, Dyson added.

It will not be passed until the end of March.

It received first reading on Feb. 24 (after the News went to press).

The proposed tax requisition for the city was approximately $1.6 million in 2015, Dyson said. With that money, the city paid $215,000 for ACRD staff wages, $133,000 for the city’s multiplex debt, $112,000 goes to the Northern 911 Corporation and $92,000 goes to Custom Transit. Those amounts are set and will not change when the 2016 budget is adopted, Dyson said.

The regional district operates under several financial rules, Dyson said. “Areas are only charged for the services they are provided. Services are independent, you have to have a separate, distinct budget for each of our 47 services and you cannot transfer revenues and expenditures between the services without

there being an equal reflected cost,” Dyson said. “For instance, if you wanted to borrow a fire apparatus from Sproat Lake for Beaver Creek, they would have to pay the

market rate for it, they couldn’t just borrow it.”

The ACRD operates with 22 full-time staff, contractors and 12 committees.

For the rest of what $17 extra on city residents tax bills is proposed to pay for, $351,000 will go to general government, $12,361 will go to regional parks, $62,145 to regional planning, $77,171 to Alberni Valley emergency planning and $256,216 to the regional airport to reflect the lack of grants the ACRD has received for the airport’s [email protected]

he B.C. Liberal government made a big show of selectively easing Medical Services Plan fees in its budget for the coming election year.

In what is becoming a pattern for Premier Christy Clark, the biggest beneficiaries are single parents. The new MSP is calculated for adults only, so a single parent with two children saves as much as $1,200 a year.

Premium assistance is expanded, with discounts for single people making up to $42,000, rather than $30,000. But for singles, couples and seniors who don’t qualify for discounts, the rate is going up another four per cent effective Jan. 1, 2017.

Indeed, with population growth, the finance ministry expects its

take from MSP premiums to rise every year, reaching $2.5 billion in the coming years.

MSP revenue covers about 17 per cent of B.C.’s health budget,

and Clark and Finance Minister Mike de Jong insist that Canada’s only direct health care charge is a vital signal to people that health care isn’t free.

This argument

has failed.One seldom-discussed fact is

that for half of the people charged MSP, it’s paid by their employers. In private sector terms it’s a hefty payroll tax, creating one more obstacle for businesses to hire full-time staff with benefits.

So most full-time employees

don’t receive this supposedly vital signal, unless they get laid off because their employer is losing money.

Also note that politicians and public sector employees have never paid MSP premiums. Their employers, taxpayers, pick up the tab for them.

People who have to pay out of pocket are what the bureaucracy calls “pay direct accounts.” Jordan Bateman of the Canadian Taxpayers’ Federation recently revealed that nearly 400,000 of these accounts are currently in arrears by more than 30 days, owing a grand total of $457 million.

Of course this is Canada, so even if you haven’t paid or even registered for MSP, you still get treatment at the hospital. Another potential signal lost in the noise.

For people who lose their jobs, MSP is like being kicked when they are down.

To Comment

Popular thinking says if Vancouver Island were cut off from the mainland due to a catastrophic event, we produce only enough food to feed people for three days. Food security has been a big issue in the

Alberni Valley, and is gaining even more importance at the municipal government level.

We believe the Alberni-Clayoquot Regional District’s abattoir feasibility survey is a good step to take toward ensuring food security in the central Island.

Being located in the Alberni Valley presents unique challenges to farmers who must pay to take their livestock over the hump to Courtenay for slaughter, then return to pick up their meat products. Having something more centrally located could again be economical, as it once was before new health regulations forced small-time slaughterhouses to close.

We will watch the ACRD’s agricultural plan grow with interest.

BIG SCREEN, BIG DEALKudos go out to the Film Fest Port Alberni

committee, which has worked since last fall to resurrect the popular film fest.

Port Alberni has been without the eclectic mix of movies represented in the film series for five years; ever since theatres changed the way they distributed films, and the timing no longer worked

A level of co-operation has been reached between Landmark Cinemas, owner of the Paramount Theatre, and the film fest committee (operated through the AV Museum), and films will be presented Sundays at 5 p.m. going forward.

Committee member Denny Durocher rightly says the film fest is part of the cultural fabric of the community. While we are fortunate to be able to see first-run movies such as Star Wars or the latest Disney Pixar flick in Port Alberni, some of the more subtle productions are also appreciated.

Differing opinion not ‘ignorance’To the Editor,

Re: Refugee family to arrive ‘soon’, Feb. 18.

I definitely take offence of my opinion being called ignorance because I talk about the refugee situation that is coming to the Alberni Valley.

I believe that from what I read in the newspaper and see on TV about other countries that are taking in refugees and their plight to

change the place that is welcoming them, is plain enough to me to be giving my opinion without being called ignorant, or afraid of the unknown. I find it offensive as a citizen of the Valley to be referred to as such.

I have my opinion and I will stick to it regardless of somebody else’s opinion; this is Canada and do not forget it. Maybe that is why we are so opinionated in this country, because we are allowed to be.

Remember this is Canada, and we have freedom of speech regardless of what the situation is, and the situation in this instance, in my opinion, is not good, according to TV and media reports from around the world. Or would you say that they are ignorant also?

This is our Valley and we have a say in it, regardless of whether someone else likes it or not.

Dave Noble,Port Alberni

Enforce rules for cyclistsTo the Editor,

I certainly hope that the city’s managers can justify the waste of our tax money when they decided that the Gertrude Street bridge needed fixing.

I hope that the bridge is in need of urgent repairs, because the bridge does not get that much use on a daily basis.

Now for the bicycle right of ways. First of all you need to

enforce the rules and the non-rules. Cyclists do not seem to know how to obey the road rules. I know a lot of Port Alberni’s drivers are just as bad but if they are in an accident they may have a chance. Bicycle riders do not have much of a chance in an accident and pay no insurance.

Until the city managers rectify the large truck situation, bicycle riders will always be at risk.

Their employer stops paying, and the slow-moving bureaucracy charges them based on their income from the previous year.

There was a fuss in 2004 after the B.C. Liberals contracted out MSP administration to a Virginia-based back-office specialist, delightfully named Maximus Corporation.

Now Maximus goes after delinquent MSP accounts with collection agency tactics, and

attempts to keep up with the comings and goings from other provinces and countries.

Opposition parties decry the continued inequity of the MSP premium system, which charges the same for a single person making $45,000 or $450,000 a year.

NDP leader John Horgan rails about inequality and accuses Clark of using MSP revenues to establish her prosperity “slush fund,” but he stops short of calling for the

elimination of MSP premiums.

One would expect the NDP to lead another “axe the tax” campaign, as they did with the carbon tax and the HST, but they aren’t. Perhaps this is because workers for this unnecessary Maximus machine remain members of the B.C. Government and Service Employees’ Union.

Green Party leader Andrew Weaver has it right. He staged a popular petition drive to roll MSP premiums

into income tax. If the government wants to send a message, it can interrupt its continuous “Jobs Plan” advertising.

Scrapping MSP and raising income tax rates on higher brackets to compensate would fix the private sector payroll deterrent, make salaried employees (including me) pay their share, and end a tax break for the wealthy.

Don’t hold your breath.

Break free of clothing conformityTo the Editor,

Thanks to the mayor of Coquitlam for his gender-equality initiative (wearing the same suit every day for 15 months), but I beg to offer t’other side of the coin.

For indeed, women have more accepted freedom than men to express their individuality through their style of dress.

Keeping pace with fashion trends, women have to be creatively innovative: a powerful trait that’s valued in a competitively entrepreneurial business world.

Men, on t’other hand, are slaves to a comparatively boring dress code: the suit and tie. Or, as Dad used to call it: the monkey suit.

So while we recognize gender equality between men and women, let us free our brothers from their noose-tied collars and ridiculous layers of clothing, especially in summer.

With more open collars, perhaps there would be more open thinking between diplomats and warring world leaders.

Forest Bathing as Preventative Medicine

Forest Bathing Trail Guides and Wellness Associates of British Columbia is offering an introduction into one style of the Japanese practice

of Shinrin-Yoku. When translated, Shinrin-Yoku means ‘taking in the atmosphere of the forest’ or Forest Bathing.

This gentle forest trail walk is being offered free of charge to individuals experiencing chronic illness or bereavement. Participants will walk slowly over a distance of 2 kilometers (round trip) with many opportunities to rest over a three-hour period. During the walk participants will be encouraged to relax while mindfully exploring their sensory awareness of the environment.

From a therapeutic viewpoint, a growing body of literature examining the physi-ological and psychological effects of Forest Bathing suggests that, contact with nature and forests in particular is beneficial.

Studies have shown that Forest Bathing: is effective for stress reduction and mood improvement, induces feelings of vitality, significantly decreases measurements for depression and hostility, facilitates improvements in blood pressure, is therapeutic for cardiovascular disease, significantly enhances immune response via increased NK cell activity, reduces blood sugar concentrations in individuals with diabetes type 2 mellitus, is effective for cognitive restoration.

DATE OF WALK: Sunday, June 19, 2016 at 10:00am Group size is limited to 10 people

LOCATION: An exceptionally wonderful trail within 2 kilometers of Port Alberni

Individuals that currently use mobility aids will be offered a modified program the following week, Sunday, June 26, 2016 at 10:00am

People wishing to participate are advised to consult their physician prior to registering.

From A1“The addition of

the aircraft ahead of the 2016 wildfire

season will allow the BC Wildfire Service to evaluate its cost and effectiveness

and help inform future procurement decisions,” a government press

release noted.Coulson Group CEO

Wayne Coulson said that he did not receive

a reason as to why the province turned down his C-130s despite their higher tank capacity.

“I have no idea why the province went with Conair,” Coulson said.

“The government dances to their own drum.”

Coulson added that there was no tender process for the awarding of the contract.

“It is unusual in the firefighting world to award a contract to a company without a tender process,” he said.

The MoF did not reply to questions about the lack of tender process.

The province’s contracted fleet for the 2016 fire season consists of 33 aircraft including one light-duty helicopter, five medium-duty helicopter, eight bird dog helicopters, 12 airtankers and two para-attack jump ships. The contract is split between Conair Group Inc., Air Spray (1967) Ltd., Ascent Helicopters Ltd., Wildcat Helicopters, Interior Helicopters (Jetcom Ventures Inc.), and Kenn Borek Air Ltd.

Bethel added that the province can bring in additional contracted aircraft as needed, noting that in July 2015, more than 100 helicopters were being used to fight fires throughout [email protected]

Coulson shut out for 2016

Th e Alberni Valley News readers have chosen their favour-ite places to eat, shop and just hang out in the Alberni Valley. Th is is the second

annual Readers Choice Awards and this year more than 100 entries were submitted online and on paper. With nearly 100

categories, we really appreciate the time people took to speak up for the businesses they support in our community. In the next few pages

we have mentioned only those who placed fi rst in the survey of readers, but many of the numbers were close and many, many business names were put forward. Th at means the

business community in the Alberni Valley is working hard to

provide products and services their customers want and need. And that’s the real

point of the Reader’s Choice Awards. We want our readers, the people who live here, to support their local businesses by shop-

ping, dining, and playing here. While the bright

lights of city shop-ping may shine just over the hump, here in Port Alberni you can fi nd nearly everything you need at competitive prices, with great local

service. So take a look, see

who won this year. Th en make sure to congratulate them on a great job the next time you shop. Th anks to all the

readers and business-es who took part in Reader’s Choice.

Sherry Jasken, right, was presented with $100 cash from Alberni Valley News publisher Teresa Bird, just for participating in the 2nd annual Readers Choice awards.

Do you have good hearing but poor comprehension?

Ginette van Wijngaarden, from Connect Hearing proudly displays the Audéo Venture hearing aid.

Do you sometimes feel that you can hear well, but not fully understand what’s being said? This can be most evident in social conversations and watching television. Fortunately, there may be a solution for some people dealing with this type of hearing loss ‑ the Audéo Venture hearing aid has been designed specifically to help improve speech comprehension without being noticeable in the ear.Poor comprehension in conversation can possibly be caused by undetected hearing loss in the high-frequency range. This means the sensory cells in the cochlea that hear high-range sounds are damaged as a result of circulatory disorders, diabetes, sudden hearing loss or workplace noise. Hearing loss in the high frequency range makes speech sound muffled and unclear making it difficult to hear consonants like s, f, t, k, h and g.Speech comprehension is even more challenging when there is background noise or when television programs have background music. The dilemma is that people with hearing loss in the high-frequency range do not consider themselves to have a hearing problem. They can hear deep tones with no issue,

and often put difficulty understanding speech down to unclear pronunciation. However, the time soon comes when problems with comprehension become annoying. Phonak Audéo Venture Hearing AidsThis past year, Swiss audiologists have developed a hearing aid that can, in qualified candidates, improve speech comprehension for those with hearing loss in the high-frequency range. People can sign up for a free demonstration of the Audéo Venture hearing aids by calling now to do so. During your appointment, you will be given a hearing test and speech comprehen-sion analysis. If inner-ear damage is

present, a hearing care professional will determine the difference relative to normal hearing. These values are then programmed into the hearing aids, which precisely take into account and balance the frequency range of the person being tested. The demonstration phase in particular is designed to clarify how speech com-prehension can be improved in various situations and what role the hearing aid technology called “Autosense OS” plays. The hearing aid recognizes where the person being spoken to is located and amplifies only his or her voice, while ambient noise is lowered and the optimum hearing programs are seamlessly adjusted. Thanks to several synchronous microphones, the hearing system can detect sound in all directions and select the direction that speech is coming from within milliseconds. According to Swiss researchers, this can significantly improve speech comprehension, espe-cially in conversation for some clients.Want to find out more about the Audéo Venture hearing aid?

KATYA SLEPIANALBERNI VALLEY NEWS

City council has moved to create a management board for McLean Mill comprised of up to seven volunteers to manage the heritage site.

“I’d like to move that council for the City of Port Alberni form a management board comprised of up to

seven volunteers to operate the McLean Mill and steam train. The board would report and answer to council through the CAO,” said Coun. Jack McLeman. He added another motion to have the city’s personnel committee select seven members for council’s consideration to bring to the next council

meeting—or sooner.“My personal

concern is that the season is starting,” McLeman said.

Director of community services Theresa Kingston had prepared a report outlining six different options for managing the mill: a corporation or company, a council standing committee, a new society, putting

out a request for proposal, adapting or modifying the existing society, or re-establishing the management operating board used during the mill’s early years of operation.

In order to create terms of reference, Kingston said she needed to know what the legal framework of the committee would be.

Mayor Mike Ruttan agreed.

“We want to make sure it’s done in a way that protects the asset and protects the city—that’s the whole point of a legal structure.”

But McLeman said he believed the board could be picked and terms of reference decided upon at the same time.

“Yes, we need a terms of reference but I think that could be done coincidentally with forming the board,” he said.

“The City of Port Alberni owns McLean Mill. The City of Port Alberni owns all the heritage pieces.”

Recommendations will be made at the next council meeting.

Board will run mill: city

Time passes slowlyWith each day more seems to happenEach memory compliments the next

Walking down the street drawsMemories once new

With each step we rememberLaughing at the funny moments

Crying at the sad onesBut cherishing each one

As if it were our last We take this time to re ect

And think about all that's happenedWishing you could see us now

Stronger, Faster, SmarterUntil we meet again

Monica passed away suddenly on Thursday, February 18, 2016 at the age of 81. She battled with Diabetes the majority of her life.Monica leaves behind her devoted husband Dennis. This past July they

celebrated their 60th Wedding Anniversary. In addition, Monica leaves behind her son Ian (Silvia); grandchildren Ryan, and Sara; sister Betty (Ron) Sparrow and their children Jeanette, Michael (Karen) and several great nieces and nephews.Together with their son, and her parents Thomas and Ivy, Dennis and Monica emigrated from England in 1966. Their journey abroad once again united them with Betty, Ron and family who had immigrated to Canada and settled in Port Alberni the previous year. Monica and Dennis were long time members of the Haymakers Square Dance Club where they enjoyed many dances and trips with the group in which they met many lifelong friends. In her late 50’s, Monica obtained her driver’s license which gave her a new lease on life. As a matter of fact, she enjoyed driving so much that Dennis eventually had to settle for the passenger’s seat. This new independence allowed her to become highly involved in her volunteer work at Fir Park Village. She loved to spend countless hours at the Village assisting with a variety of tasks such as: Ladies Auxiliary, decorating, helping to organize the teas and bazaars, Bingo Caller and collator. Monica was honoured to receive the “Citizen of the Year” award for 1993 and then again in 2006.A Tea Of Remembrance will be held 2:00pm – 4:00pm, Sunday, February 28, 2016 at the Cherry Creek Community Hall, 3720 Moore Rd. Friends and family are warmly welcomed.Monica’s family would like to thank the staff of the BC Ambulance Service who assisted her in her time of need, the dedicated staff of the WCGH and especially Drs. Fayi, Lund and Kitshoff.In lieu of flowers, donations in Monica’s memory may be made to the Canadian Diabetes Association, 276 – 2950 Douglas St, Victoria, BC., V8T 4N4 or the Fir Park Village Foundation New Bus Fund, 4411 Wallace St., Port Alberni, BC., V9Y 7Y5

Down to the wire for ‘DogsWith playoff spot on the line, Bulldogs plan to honour emergency respondersSUSAN QUINNALBERNI VALLEY NEWS

The Alberni Valley Bulldogs’ BC Hockey League playoff prospects have come down to the final two games of the regular season.

The Bulldogs are in fifth place in the Island Division with 27 points, two points behind fourth-place Victoria Grizzlies. Both teams are playing two games this weekend.

The Bulldogs are riding a four-game points streak: two wins, one tie and one overtime loss. They host Powell River Kings for a pair of games this weekend: Saturday, Feb. 27 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, Feb. 28 at 2 p.m.

The top four teams from each of the three divisions will make the playoffs for a total

of 12 playoff teams. Each team will be seeded, with No. 1 playing No. 4 and No. 2 playing No. 3.

Given this scenario, should the Bulldogs earn the final playoff spot in the Island division they will play the Nanaimo Clippers, who already clinched the division.

Round 1 of the BC Ford Dealers Road to the Fred Page Cup starts on Friday, March 4 and is a best-of-seven series.

The Bulldogs and Alberni-Clayoquot Regional District are teaming up for the ‘Dogs’ game on

Saturday to celebrate emergency first responders in the Alberni Valley and encourage personal preparedness.

“During a ceremonial faceoff we will be honouring those

that are there for our community in emergencies and disasters: our first responders,” the team noted in a statement.

There will be contests and giveaways too.

Alberni skier heads to BC Winter GamesLocal skater, badminton player also on Zone 6 team

Zone 6 (Vancouver Island) will be well represented in alpine skiing at the Penticton 2016 BC Winter Games.

The Mount Washington Ski Club on Wednesday sent 11 athletes off to the Feb. 25-28 Games. Competing for the Zone on the Mount Washington team for the women are Anja Leikermoser, Shelby Nilsen and Emilly Johnston of Comox, Brooke Taylor of Victoria and Isabella Cross of Port Alberni. On the men’s team we have Ian Leighton and Eric Ashton of Comox/Courtenay, Luke Hoefer of Nanaimo, Trent Perras of Campbell River, Griffin Hart and Luka Djurickovic of Victoria.

The BC Winter Games allows these athletes to compete with others from

across the province who are at the highest level of their discipline. The alpine team will be competing in slalom and giant slalom at nearby Apex Mountain Resort, head coach John Trimmer said.

Also representing

Port Alberni at the Games are Kimberly Giesbrecht in figure skating, and Hanna Ross in badminton.

Hosting more than 2,500 athletes, Penticton will be brimming with youthful energy this weekend.

Alberni athlete Isabella Cross, centre, a member of the Mt. Washington Ski Club, will compete in alpine skiing at the BC Winter Games.

Sheep fall to WestshoreSUSAN QUINNALBERNI VALLEY NEWS

Turnovers and an untimely yellow card cost the Port Alberni Black Sheep three tries and a road game on Saturday, as home Westshore beat the Sheep 43–10 at Westhill Stadium in Victoria.

“A little bit of rust showed,” Black Sheep head coach Jas Purewal said. “We kept making mistakes, we kept turning the ball over on offence.”

The Sheep went ahead 3–0 on the first run of the game, but Westshore scored 19 in a row to take a commanding lead. The Sheep scored a try at the end of

the first half to draw within nine points (19–10).

A yellow card in the early minutes of the second half stifled any momentum the Sheep had, Purewal said. “We gave up three tries. That put us behind the eight ball.”

When a team receives a yellow card—the equivalent of a penalty in rugby—they play shorthanded for 10 minutes.

SCRUM NOTES...The game between the Black Sheep and Westshore was a pre-game warmup for rugby fans at Westhill, who got to watch Team Canada play Brazil later.

Film fest returnsSpring series kicks off March 13 with ‘Brooklyn’SUSAN QUINNALBERNI VALLEY NEWS

Film Fest Port Alberni returns to the Paramount Theatre in March after a five-year absence.

“We are thrilled to re-launch the film fest,” said Shelley Harding from the AV Museum. “We’re back, fresh and new.”

Films will be aired on Sundays at 5 p.m.—a departure from the past, but a day necessitated by the theatre’s schedule, she explained.

The festival was halted five years ago after theatres changed the way they distributed films.

Now, Port Alberni has been included on the Toronto International Film Festival’s film circuit, and benefits from cost sharing with other communities.

The film fest committee has stuck with a formula for choosing movies that worked for them in the past, committee member Denny Durocher said. The three-film series usually features a Canadian film or one with Canadians featured prominently in its production; a crowd pleaser; and one that is a little bit different, perhaps set elsewhere, and takes

viewers “somewhere they may never have been.

“We see this as an important part of the culture of our community,” he said.

The film fest operated for 10 years and brought in more than 100 films that differed from first-run movies.

The first movie, part of the TIFF film fest circuit, is Brooklyn, which was filmed partially in Montreal, and is up for Best Picture at the Oscars, on March 13.

Series passes are available for $27 at the museum ($10 for single film tickets).

Reenie pops into Char’sToronto’s Reenie

brings her folk/ pop sound to Char’s Landing this Saturday, Feb. 27 from 8–10 p.m.

Reenie Perkovic is a Toronto-based musician and composer who writes and arranges what she calls “honest” songs with a soulful edge that is fun and introspective all at once.

Drawing from a diverse set of influences, her music manifests in sweeping textures and colours within a rhythm section, brass and strings. Canadian music blog Grayowl Point says “Perkovic’s clear voice anchors

the traditional instrumentation and pop arrangements with panache.”

While studying music composition at the University of Victoria with John Celona (saxophonist for Santana) and Cassandra Miller, Perkovic wrote works that the Victoria Symphony and Ensemble Contemporain de Montreal read. She

learned to combine her classical training with a jazz sensibility, rhythmic drive and delicate construction of ensemble mixture.

She moved to Toronto after graduation to hone her skills.

Perkovic (vocals, guitars) appears with Lea Kirstein (vocals, viola) and together, this wife-and-wife team pares Reenie’s songs down to a raw acoustic soundscape.

Tickets are $10 in advance ($13 at the door) and available at Char’s Landing, 4815 Argyle St. at Fifth Avenue, or by telephone at 778-421-2427.
