The mayor who incited rebel-lion against his own city council has now aroused rebellion from city councillors.
Coun. Mary Storry took Mayor Walter Jakeway to task at Tues-day night’s council meeting for comments he made at a Rotary lunch reported in the Mirror on May 25.
“Council is aware of the public comments made by the mayor at the Rotary meeting on May 23 and the subsequent news reports,” Storry said. “Council wishes to review and discuss the mayor’s role as council spokesperson and whether these recent com-ments accurately or appropri-ately reflect the will and view of council.”
Storry took exception to the keynote address Jakeway deliv-ered at the Rotary meeting at the Coast Discovery Inn.
The outspoken mayor lambasted city staff and labelled the atmo-sphere at city hall as “toxic.”
“The senior staff don’t get it, they really don’t,” Jakeway said in front of the noon hour Rotar-ians. “They don’t have the skill set, they cling to their policy doc-uments.”
Jakeway also waded back into city budget deliberations, which produced a 4-3 split on council
with councillors Ryan Mennie, Claire Moglove, Larry Samson and Storry voting in favour of the budget and councillors Andy Adams, Ron Kerr and the mayor in opposition.
Jakeway accused city staffers of playing “a game of divide and conquer” which “council fell for.”
Jakeway’s comments re-ignited the flame that council tried to snuff out just weeks ago.
When budget deliberations wrapped up one month ago, coun-cillors were saying all the right things and agreed they have to work together.
“There was concern about a fractured council,” Storry said at a council meeting April 24. “I want to put these concerns to

After dangling in a tree over-night, it didn’t look like the bald eagle was still alive.
Entangled in what appeared to be a thick kite line, the distressed eagle had flown to a fir tree by the beach in Royston where it had become further entwined in the rope.
On Tuesday night, a nearby res-ident contacted the Mountainaire Avian Rescue Society in Merville to let them know, but with dark-ness approaching there was little anyone could do.
Help arrived Wednesday morn-ing after another call was made to Campbell River tree specialist Steve Harding.
Harding, the owner of Timber-wolf Tree Service, helped people save their homes from fallen trees during the big storm in March and he’s rescued umpteen cats who have climbed into tall trees and can’t get down.
He’s also developing a fine repu-tation for saving eagles.
“He’s a great guy,” says Maj Birch, the long-time manager at Mountainaire.
But this rescue would be diffi-cult and it appeared doubtful the

bird was still alive.“This one was pretty
sketchy,” says Birch, who brought along animal technician Reg Westcott to assist in the rescue.
By morning the line was wrapped around the eagle’s talons and one wing, and the bird was hanging upside down.
“He was in a bad way,” says Harding.
But Westcott man-aged to get the bird’s
attention and when it stated squawking, it was time for Harding to start climbing.
The big problem though was the tree leaned to one side and the eagle was dangling from an extended branch. In order to get at it, Harding climbed above the branch, secured himself to the trunk, and then rap-pelled to the eagle.
“Once I got up close, I had to contemplate what to do,” explains Harding, who spent
many years volunteer-ing for Campbell River Search and Rescue.
With dexterity and gentleness, Harding secured the distressed eagle with one of his ropes, cut around the kite line to free the bird, and then slowly lowered it into West-cott’s awaiting arms.
“He had some trauma, a few scratches, but his wing wasn’t broken, and then he was full of piss and vinegar!” says Harding with a chuckle.
It was the sixth time Harding has rescued a bald eagle and the animal lover was glad everything worked out.
“I was up all night worrying,” he says. “We were up at five o’clock and there by six…it was really rewarding…a good ending.”
Back at the Moun-tainaire recovery cen-tre, the mature male bird was further exam-ined and appears to be okay.
“ H e ’s d e f i n i t e ly stressed out – but he has good weight and he’s definitely feisty,” says Birch, who let the bird mellow out in a dark and quiet holding pen.
The plan is to further examine the eagle to see if it suffered any ligament or tendon damage, and if every-thing is A-ok, he will be good to go.
“Hopefully we can release him soon,” says Birch, who’s grateful for Harding’s expertise and reliability. “He did an amazing job.”

rest. I think that we will be able to move forward in a co-operative manner.”
Jakeway was also confident council would be able to work together once the “topic” (finances) changed.
“We’ll be fine,” he said following the April 24 meeting. “Money is always a contentious issue.”
But this week, council looked anything but fine as Storry filed a notice of motion to review the
mayor’s role as spokesperson.Storry said council would “fur-
ther discuss the impacts that the mayor’s comments can have on the community and the corporate organization” during an in-camera meeting, meaning behind closed doors and not open to the public or the media.
Storry did not stipulate whether her motion would be discussed during the in-camera session fol-lowing Tuesday’s regular coun-cil meeting or if it would be at a future date.

Joan Knowler tries her best to be nice.
But when able-bodied drivers park in spots reserved for people w i t h d i s ab i l i t i e s, well…
“I get a little agitated and I call them out,” she says.
Knowler, 45, requires the use of a wheelchair due to a neck/back injury she suffered as a teenager which resulted in paralysis of her lower body.
For 28 years she’s handily managed to get around the city in her wheelchair as well as hauling it in and out of her car. Those things are no trouble for her, but the problems occur when the “handicap parking” space is occu-pied by someone who can clearly get around on two feet.
“Oh my goodness, people need some education…I try to be polite,” says the usu-ally affable mom.
This is Access Aware-
ness Week across North America and Knowler thought it was a good time for another lesson for Campbell River’s less-than-courteous motorists.
And a perfect exam-ple of what she often faces occurred Tues-day afternoon as she was heading out of work from Uniglobe River City Travel at the Tyee Plaza.
Her car was already parked in one of the wider handicap spots, but there was little room for her to manoeuvre due to a mid-sized work truck that was straddling the dividing line and parked too close to her driver’s side door.
“My husband Ed called me, because he had noticed it, and said, ‘you’re not going to be able to get into your car,’” she says.
So instead of get-ting mad, or even, the couple decided it was perfect opportunity to educate the public. Ed took photographs of his wife attempting
to get into her car and then offered his assis-tance so that she could drive home.
“This happens all the time!” she says.
Mostly it’s not the close-parkers, but those who demonstrate
willful blindness and park in the designated spaces because they’re unoccupied.
“People even argue with me,” she says with a laugh. “They tell me they’re just running into the store for a min-
ute or whatever…”Then there are the
lazy shoppers who can’t be bothered to return their buggies and simply leave them in the handicap spots.
Knowler says she’s fortunate to have good
mobility and has man-aged to wrangle her-self and the wheelchair into the car, especially in tight spots. Some-times she even has to enter through the pas-senger side, but she knows a lot of others
with disabilities aren’t so agile.
“A lot of people just can’t do it,” she says. “Sometimes I even have to ask strangers to back out my car…and I wonder if they’re just going to drive away!”
As for Tuesday’s inci-dent, Knowler noticed a sign on the back of the work truck which read, “How’s my driv-ing?”
So she called the toll-free number listed below to let them know the vehicle was block-ing her access.
“It turned out to be just a call centre. I had called in the afternoon and the truck was still there when I went to leave,” she says.
Access Awareness Week ends on Saturday, but Knowler is hopeful motorists demonstrate awareness, and good manners, year-round.
“The city is really good about ticketing vehicles parked in des-ignated spots, but they can’t do it on the pri-vate lots,” she points out.

Sound abatement still won’t muffle residentsKRISTEN DOUGLAS
CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
The owner of a con-troversial pole peeler on Duncan Bay Road will attempt to reduce the operating noise by today.
The city received plant modification
plans last week to reduce noise coming from Northern Pres-sure Treated Wood and owner Mike McCol-lough was hopeful to have the work com-pleted this week.
“This will allow the company to install n o i s e - r e d u c i n g
improvements as soon as possible,” said Ross Blackwell, the city’s land use manager.
In March, McCol-lough said he would implement recom-mendations from a sound consultant in an attempt to lower the volume on the peeler,
which emits a high-pitch buzzing sound when running.
Nearby resident Corinne Matheson compares the noise to “Chinese water tor-ture.”
She is one of about 20 area residents exasper-ated by the noise and
is doubtful the sound abatement measures won’t solve anything.
“The fact the pole plant is doing the noise abatement – after four months – is distress-ing to us,” said Tracey Deller, co-owner of Blue Spruce Home Park, located next door
to the operation. “The city is looking
at only one issue, the noise from the peeler. We have been com-plaining about all the other noise from this business as well – the crashing and banging and thundering sounds of the long poles drop-
ping, the heavy equip-ment.”
Once the modifica-tions are completed, the owner will provide a letter sealed by the sound consultant cer-tifying the recommen-dations outlined in its report have been fully implemented.

A Campbell River man’s name will be written into the Guin-ness Book of World Records.
Travis Dashkewytch, 34, was one of 40 men who took part in the longest hockey game now on record at 246 hours and two min-utes – a total of 10-and-a-half days.
The game began at noon on May 6 and wrapped up at 6 p.m. on May 16
But there was more to the game than break-ing records. The men had a greater purpose – to raise money for the Alberta Children’s Hospital and cancer research.
The goal was $1.5 mil-lion and the players – through their families, friends and communi-ties – came through with $1.539 million.
Dashkewytch got involved following an invite from his brother who lives in Calgary. The game, held at the Chestermere Rec Cen-tre (20 minutes east of Calgary), was orga-nized by a group of oil workers wanting to raise money for cancer research.
They were inspired by Diamond Marshall, age six, who is battling a rare form of cancer and whose mother died of cancer four years ago.
“I wanted to do something for cancer research so I jumped at the opportunity right away,” said Dashkew-ytch whose wife Carrie Davison was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2010 at the age of 33.
She’s now cancer-free, but is undergoing a “maintenance” sur-gery next week.
Dashkewytch played in honour of his wife and had ‘Carrie’ writ-ten on the back of his jersey. His number was <3 which, when flipped around forms the shape of a heart.
With two teams of 20 players, split into 10-man rosters, each group played four-hour shifts, with a four-hour break in-between ice times.
The players had to be at the arena 24/7 and slept on makeshift beds. By the time their shifts were over and they got out of their gear, showered and ate, they only had about two-and-a-half hours to sleep.
“Your body would break down,” Dash-kewytch said. “Guys feet swelled up to sizes
bigger than they nor-mally are. I ended up taking my socks off to get my feet to fit into my skates. There were hundreds of skates donated and brought to the arena during the game. There was one
guy who is a size nine skate wearing a size 14 because his feet hurt.”
Another broke his ankle, but continued to play to end.
Dashkewytch man-aged to escape injury, but it wasn’t smooth
sailing. Seven days in, as he
was heading onto the ice for the start of a shift he had trouble breathing.
Dashkewytch, latrer diagnosed with pneu-monia, was taken by ambulance to the hos-pital where doctors gave him medication and put him on three different inhalers to clear his lungs.
“They quarantined me and I slept in my own dressing room for two days,” said Dashkewytch, who missed only a couple of his four-hour shifts despite the ordeal. “I was worried because I couldn’t breathe. It was like holding your breath until they gave me treatment on the bench.”
The players were treated like celebrities throughout the game with several media
outlets covering the marathon which was streamed live on hock-eymarathon.com
Family, friends and other curious onlook-ers filled the tiny arena every day and nearly every night. Calgary Flames players Jerome Iginla and Brendan Morrison, as well as retired Flame Craig Conroy, also stopped by, as did country singer Paul Brandt.
“We stuck around because you never knew who you were going to meet,” said Dashkewytch’s wife, Davison, who brought their three kids along for the last six days of the hockey game.
By the time the clock wound down, the score-board read 4,178 goals for Dashkewytch’s Team Cure and 3,845 goals for Team Hope.
Dashkewytch tallied 225 goals, 200 assists,
and 18 penalty minutes. The highest scorer notched 522 goals.
“I was completely exhausted,” he said by the time the marathon game came to an end. “I still feel tired and I’m still trying to catch up on my sleep.”
He’s also feeling other side effects.
“I still can’t feel parts of my feet,” Dashkew-ytch said. “The balls of my feet and the tops feel frozen like I’ve been to the dentist.”
Still, he would do it again in a heartbeat.
“It was very different being in that environ-ment for 10 days. When you leave you feel like you’re missing some-thing. I’d do it again.”
Dashkewytch, who raised $7,000, would like to thank all the people in the commu-nity who helped him in his fundraising efforts.

EDITOR: Alistair [email protected]
The B.C. Conservatives can officially change their name to the B.C. Scrooge Party, if they want to.
Yes, these political Grinches don’t want you to have a new statutory holiday in February because it allegedly hurts the economy. Our intrepid independent MLAs stood up proudly in the Legislature and voted boldly against the B.C. Liberals’ plan (supported by the NDP) to implement Family Day on the second Monday of February,
beginning next year on Feb. 11.A gaggle of independent MLAs, led by B.C.
Conservative Party member John Van Dongen and party leader John Cummins, said an extra holiday in the long, dark stretch between New Year’s and Easter will cost businesses – more than $1,100 on average to pay employees to stay home or to pay overtime to come into work.
While we’re sympathetic to the challenges of small businesses in this tough economy, sometimes the greater good takes priority. Plus, these kinds of comparisons are often “six of one, half a dozen of another” situations. Some businesses may incur costs but others will surely benefit from consumers being out and about shaking off the winter
doldrums. Ski resorts are already anticipating a bonus day of business. In fact, they requested a change to the actual day so they won’t be overloaded because the original proposal coincided with a popular American holiday.
Family Day brings B.C. into line with most other provinces now and it allows Premier Christy Clark to fulfill a promise she made before becoming premier. The Conservative-led independents can grouse all they want about a burdensome new holiday but most British Columbians will be spending the day out and about or with their families come Feb. 11, 2013 and saying thanks.
The Grinches who tried to steal Family DayOur ViewOur View
A month of bus riding reduces my carbon footprint
We say: The B.C. Conservatives claim it will hurt the economy
There Are Plusses For Taking The Busses. Winning a BCTran-sit bus pass for a 30-day trial period created a doorway to a brave new world.
That personal pledge at the April Earth Day event, when I acquired the card, was a serious undertaking. Firstly, how was I to lug home grocer-ies? That was quickly solved by dis-covering that most markets do home deliveries. What about heavy bags of my beloved chicken manure and ocean soil? That was a set back as the stores don’t load manures into the same trucks that haul food. Relying on a friend that was going downtown quickly solved that problem. Attend-ing my many meetings, especially evening events, was tricky as the last
busses depart the Community Centre at 9:15 p.m. My appreciation for the trials of a Quadra Islander deepened. My fall-back position was to use the car for meetings.
The plusses outweigh the strate-gic planning that goes into taking a simple bus ride. The frustrations that are a daily part of using public transportation are the same things that make taking the bus actually pleasant. The act of sharing space with a stranger, maybe having a bit of a chat with passengers or the driver, connects us to our community in a broader way.
Despite having to use my car sev-eral times during the month when my “strategic” plans collapsed, I still contributed greatly to the car-
bon footprint reduction. $130 which equates to two tanks of gas was saved by not having to fill up. The monthly bus pass, at $35 for seniors is a bonus. I just can’t pass up a good pass so I’m renewing my card for the month of June!
A Group of Food Garden Fanat-ics including agricultural plan sup-porters and city hall staffers visited a most unusual farm last week.
Hans Rhenisch and his wife Doro-thy moved from the Okanagan to land near the old UBC farm and have spent the last four years transforming it into a model site. Essentially they practice a form of agriculture which is comparable to the permaculture system. After the surface weeds are cleared and the top soil gently loos-
ened seeds are sown on the surface and covered over with a topping of finely ground bark mulch, sand and aged animal manure.
The land is not deeply cultivated and as Rhenisch, a retired plant pathologist, explained to us, “Dig-ging down into the soil disturbs the micro organisms. They become dis-connected from each other. It is like a symphony orchestra. It does not work in harmony when you change the players around.”
Standing there surrounded by strong, healthy insect free vegetables and fruit trees was certainly a con-firmation of his system. Rhenisch’s farm is an adaptation of the ancient Asian farming system and is a most inspiring place to visit.
In the Campbell River Mirror, dated May 23, Eric Becherer wrote a letter that is so full of misconcep-tions, it beggars belief.
Mr. Becherer states “I tend to be leery of BCTF state-ments, having been a student during a teachers strike, and a parent during the most recent illegal strike...” Which illegal strike would that be? Is he aware that in 2011 a judge of the British Columbia Supreme Court deemed that teachers’ had been working without a contract for ten years, therefore, they were in a legal position to strike? A decision that was upheld by the Labour Relations Board of British Columbia.
Teachers in British Columbia have been working in a toxic environment for many years. Frankly, it isn’t nec-essary to tell the teachers to “use some self-reflection please...”
Their self-reflection led them to fight the govern-ment over the insidious bill being foisted upon them. A fight that goes to the very heart of education in B.C. Not until you find your children in a classroom with no student limit, with not enough text books will you

understand the rami-fications of what this government has done, and continues to do to public education.
Believe it or not, teachers’ have gained very little considering their level of education and qualifications. In my mind, the general public sees them as nothing more than glo-rified baby-sitters.
We have all attended school at some point in our lives, however,
that does not qualify us to become teachers nor does it give us the right to make judge-ment calls.
Perhaps, I should state that as a mother of a B.C. teacher, not in SD 72, I can speak firsthand to how much of her life, my daugh-ter, has spent studying to become a teacher, not to mention the costs incurred.
As a qualified teacher she continues, on her own time and out of
her own pocket, to add to her skills to bet-ter help her students. Given her skill set and qualifications she is more valuable in Ontario than she is in British Columbia?
Although, I agree with Mr. Becherer, the BCTF has not handled the current situation very well, I feel the need to point out to him that the govern-ment, also, needs to be held to account.
This is a very com-
plex situation, that cannot be resolved by “armchair pundits.” I could go on “ad infini-tum.”
Suffice to say, that as you chastise all those lazy, greedy teachers, keep in mind the ones who provide a hot breakfast to children who arrive at school, tired, hungry and unkempt. Kudos to the Campbell River teach-ers who used the news-papers to keep parents informed during the
“work to rule.”Personally, I feel
that B.C. teachers are undervalued, and, if, as this government states they are an essential service, why is it that Mr. Abbott appears to have difficulty foster-ing a sense of trust and coming to the table in mutual understand-ing? After all, teachers are a professional body and ought to be treated accordingly.

I read with interest the column written by Ingrid Pincott that appeared in the May 15, 2012, edition of North Island Midweek entitled, “Three aware-ness weeks have the same gluten tag.”
In the piece, Ms.
Pincott writes that she doesn’t recommend buying bottled water “as you don’t know how long the water has been stored in plas-tic or if the plastic is free of BPA (bisphenol A)...”
Both statements are
incorrect. Most single-use bottled water prod-ucts sold to Canadian consumers have a date stamp on them with a two-year expiry. How-ever, when stored in a dark, cool place, bot-tled water will easily keep for up to 10 years.
With respect to BPA, no single-use plastic beverage containers, including those used to package bottled water, contain this compound as it simply isn’t used in the manufacture of PET.
For further infor-
mation about bottled water, Midweek read-ers are encouraged to visit Health Canada’s web site at www.hc-sc-gc.ca.

Coun. Ron Ker r would like to see the city get a new library.
At Tuesday’s council meeting, Kerr directed city staff to try and make that happen fol-
lowing a presentation from Vancouver Island Regional Library staff two weeks ago.
Campbell River is sixth on a list of 13 urban libraries to be either renovated or re-built but the city could get bumped up.
Adrian Maas, direc-tor of finance for Van-couver Island Regional Library, told council at a May 15 meeting the process could be fast-tracked if the city could donated land for a new library.
Kerr took that to
heart and this week, asked staff to prepare a report with options for a new or expanded library.
He also asked the report include any available city-owned lands that could be offered.
“I think this is a real opportunity here,” Kerr said. “Unfortu-nately council in the past hasn’t seen fit to move on it.”
At 9,683 square feet, the Campbell River library is undersized for the population and
is old. The branch has operated out of its Shoppers Row location since 1987.
“Based on the popu-lation in 2009...the library should be 21,000 square feet,” Maas said. “If you take a look into the next few
years, we should really be looking at 31,000 square feet.”
New standards set by Vancouver Island Regional Library in 2010 require library facilities to be .6 square feet based on per capita population.

Since its begin-ning in 2004, Shelagh Germyn, founder and organizer of the Women for Women (W4W) Trail Mix Challenge, has raised $20,000 to support 40 Campbell River moth-ers as they return to school to continue their education at North Island College.
At age 21 Germyn fell in love with run-ning and over the years, she has vol-unteered for many running events and clinics that have raised funds for the community.
Germyn saw an opportunity to com-bine her passion for running with her personal desire to help single moms and the Women for Women Trail Mix Challenge was born.
Inspired by the Campbell River Young Parent’s Program (CRYPP) that supports young parents as they work towards high school graduation, Germyn wanted her event to take that con-cept one step farther.
“We wanted the event to be a con-tinuation of what the CRYPP was doing for young moms,” says Germyn. “We wanted
to raise awareness through education; to help our Campbell River single mothers who have finished Grade 12 know they also have an opportu-nity to continue their post-secondary educa-tion with the help of a bursary.
“And these moms are also setting an exam-ple for their own chil-dren. It’s amazing.”
Each year, the race begins at the Carihi Secondary School field in Campbell River. There are five and ten km trail runs as well as a shorter run for children, and participants may walk or run.
All funds raised goes directly towards the bursary program for Campbell River single moms.
Julie Snowdon was selected as a recipient of a W4W bursary by the NIC Foundation
in 2006. She writes, “When I chose to go back to school, I never imagined the impact it would have on me per-sonally. I have become even more confident and stronger intellec-tually and spiritually.
“Having the oppor-tunity to go back to school, yet still balance my life as a single mother of two little boys was a tran-sition that very eas-ily fell into place. It makes me very happy that I am showing my little boys that educa-tion is the key to suc-cess.”
Germyn is a small woman with giant ambition and an even bigger heart.
The child of a single parent home, Germyn never pursued her own post-secondary education.
She chose to focus her energy on her own children and their
education, and now on the mothers and children in her com-munity.
“Knowing that we’re giving hope to single moms and help-ing them to continue their education, what could be better?” says Germyn. “That’s what the Women for
Women Trail Mix Challenge does!”
This year’s race will take place on Satur-day, Sept. 8.

What type of‘Living Will’ can I make in B.C.?
In B.C., there is no such thing as a living Will. There are other documents that cover the same issues typically covered by a living Will. In B.C., Advanced Health Care Directive is the document that closely resembles a Living Will. It outlines your preference of the kind of medical procedure you do not wish to be administered on you. You can specify that in the event of a terminal illness, you do not want to receive life prolonging treatments, such as CPR or tube feeding, Kidney Dialysis etc.. However, it is important to update the Health Care Directive periodically because due to the advances in medical eld; there may be new medicines or
new procedures available. The dif cult treatments that you may not have wished to receive a number of years ago; now may have become easier. Relying on an old Health Care Directive, the health care providers may withhold the treatment that you may have consented to if you were informed about the new medical discoveries. I usually recommend my clients to make a Representation Agreement. In a Representation Agreement you can appoint someone to make medical decisions on your behalf. To make sure that your representative makes the right decisions; you can leave the instructions that you normally include in a Health Care Directive. You can change these directions as needed. This option may also be a preferred option if you wish only a speci c individual to make the health care decisions for you.

The Campbell River Chamber of Commerce has received an Hon-ourable Mention as BC Chamber of the Year.
Business leaders and Chamber of Commerce executives from com-munities across BC gathered in Penticton from May 24-26 for the BC Chamber of Com-merce Annual General Meeting & Conference to set the policy agenda for the coming year.
As part of the confer-ence, the BC Chamber of Commerce recog-nizes Chambers of Commerce which have made exceptional con-tributions to their busi-ness community with the Chamber of the Year Award, the most prestigious distinction presented to a member Chamber.
The winners are: Chamber of the
Year 2012The BC Chamber
of Commerce gave the 2012 Chamber of the Year Award to the North Vancouver Chamber of Commerce (www.nvchamber.ca) for the leadership role they played in ensur-ing that their business community has flour-ished.
As an advocate for their members, this Chamber has been at the front of some key issues with all levels of government. After working tirelessly, they were instrumental in securing a 20-year, $8 billion federal ship-building program for Seaspan Shipyards. This project will have an economic impact, not only in their region, but throughout the province. The benefits will extend to other BC shipyards which will participate with Seaspan, and to suppli-ers of everything from construction to profes-sional services.
Chamber of the Year 2012 -
Honourable MentionThe Campbell River
& District Chamber of Commerce (www.camp-bellriverchamber.ca)
has been innovative in finding ways to attract investment in the face of a resource industry downturn.
The Chamber has initiated a number of projects to help drive economic development in their area, such as a Major Project Por-tal to showcase local businesses to poten-tial contractors and project bid proponents seeking local services. BC Hydro has already adopted the portal as their major project model for community involvement going for-ward.

Scene & Heard
Hugh Pelmore of Arete Safety and Protection, along with the cast of the Simpsons, talks about, “Are Your Co-Workers Driving You Crazy.”
Homer Simpson once said, “Donuts, is there anything they can’t do?” Well, donuts were hard to fi nd at the third annual Upper Island Safety Conference – there were plenty of healthy snacks and, okay, some muf-fi ns – but Simpsons’ references came in handy for Hugh Pelmore’s presentation.The president of Arete Safety and Protection was the keynote speaker to open the two-day conference held Monday and Tuesday at Strathcona Gardens. Pelmore used images and references from the hit cartoon show to highlight his entertaining and interactive lecture on “Are Your Co-Workers Driving You Crazy?”More than 180 people, many from out-of-town, at-tended the conference presented by the Strathcona Regional District.They took part in a variety of workshops including on-the-job safety, new workplace regulations, manag-ing workplace stress, the facts and foibles of an aging workforce, and keeping your brain healthy. Participants also took in the trade show.

At the time of an emergency situation, the Campbell River Emergency Support Services Team (CRESST) under the direction of local authorities will open a reception centre for those who have had to leave their homes in the event of an emergency or a disaster. Assistance may include food, lodging, clothing, emotional support, family reunifi cation, and child and pet care. CRESST also provides a similar service for the evacuation of only one or two families (or up to 10 people), without the activation of a Reception Centre.
In an information and demonstration fi lled three days, volunteers from Vancouver Island, and smaller remote islands participated in emergency preparedness sessions. The 162 volunteers in attendance learned from the experts on a variety of topics related to training and preparedness for emergency situations and catastrophes. These included the setting up of a complete reception, rapid planning assessment training, and recovery planning which emphasized the need for early identifi cation of individual and community needs in the aftermath of a disaster. In addition, Campbell River’s Search and Rescue volunteers did a presentation about types of response resources and training available through SARs on Vancouver Island.
Do you have a household plan in case of a disaster? This could include being prepared with
exit plans from your home, prepared documentation about each family member, any special needs such as medications, and a ‘grab and go’ bag. ‘Grab and Go’ bags will include essential supplies such as food, water, toiletries, radio, fl ashlight, fi rst aid kit, whistle etc. to last for 72 hours to a few days. If your group would like to learn more about how to make these preparations contact Diana Dingwall, Director of CRESST and she will organize a speaker for you. Email her at [email protected]
The Quadra Fire Department, RCMP and Ambulance personnel took part in a full scale mock emergency exercise at the Quadra workshop after a simulated car crash. There were wounded on the ground enacting a variety of types of injuries. Emergency service workers from Vancouver Island witnessed the order of arrival of fi rst responders, a demonstration of traffi c and crowd control, an extrication of a victim from a vehicle, and the assessment and colour coded tagging process to determine treatment priorities. A triage centre was set up to treat the injured and a live commentary of events simulated emergency services calls and communication.
If you would like to become a volunteer with CRESST, email your name and phone number to [email protected] People of all ages and skill levels are
welcomed. There are jobs and roles for everyone. Meetings are held on the third Monday of the month and focus on education and training. Pictured above are some members of CRESST reviewing procedures.

Nancy Patricia Elizabeth Taylor
Taylor, Nancy Patricia Elizabeth (nee Wilson) died peacefully at Yucalta Lodge nursing home in Campbell River, British Columbia after a lengthy illness on Saturday, May 26, 2012. As a young graduate nurse she joined the staff of Toronto's Sick Children's Hospital forming friendships that lasted a lifetime. She remained in contact with this dedicated group throughout her life attending reunions when possible and even returned to nursing for a brief time after her children had grown and left home. Fate had her visiting friends in Montreal for a ski trip when she met her future husband, Graham Taylor. They were married in 1949 and celebrated 44 years of marriage before she became a widow in 1993. During that time they raised 5 children, moving many times and living throughout Quebec and Ontario before settling in Oakville, Ontario at their home "Seldoon House" on the Esplanade. Arriving there with a new baby, number fi ve; the children all remember Seldoon House as the family home perched on the shores of Lake Ontario where they grew up. Upon becoming a widow, NanPat once again packed up and fulfi lled a dream that she and Graham had of retiring to Vancouver Island. Victoria was a new adventure and no one was better at promoting the Island's wonderful sights and attractions than Nana as she hosted her visiting children and grandchildren. In her late 70s, she could still hike at a faster pace than the rest of us as she showed us the wonder of places such as Botanical Beach, Ogden Point and Beacon Hill Park. NanPat and Graham shared a belief in donating many of their personal hours to a great deal of community and church groups throughout their lives. They did this with a quiet dedication that resulted in making a true difference in many other lives that they touched both here in Canada and many other parts of the world. It is our belief that after being separated for the last 19 years they are now once again together. The children: Kent (Jane), Tim (Joanne), Dean, Joanne, Su (Larry). The grandchildren: Laren, Kendra, Trevor, Desiree, Michael, Vincent, Nick, Lian. Cremation services were held in Campbell River, BC at Island Funeral Services at 11:00am, Wednesday, may 30th.

Slow Down, Move Over Revisited
Not much has changed since this law
dictated what drivers passing emergency
vehicles on the shoulder of the road must
do in 2009. Drivers still fail to slow down
and move over when possible, putting the
safety of emergency workers at unnecessary
risk. Our provincial Learn to Drive Smart
guide speaks of the See, Think, Do method,
and that’s exactly what is needed in these
situations.
You have to see the lights of the
emergency vehicles, think that an action may
be required of you and do plan for and then
take the required action. It is not something
that you do alone either. When the road is
busy, all drivers in the vicinity of stopped
emergency vehicles have to co-ordinate and
co-operate in order to be successful.
It’s not easy to do either. I watched a
police vehicle light up and disappear from
view ahead of me. I was in the right hand lane
of the two northbound lanes so I slowed and
anticipated that I might fi nd them stopped
ahead. Sure enough, I found them stopped
in a corner within a short distance.
No one else slowed and no one would
make room, despite my signalled request,
to make room to allow me to move over. I
couldn’t stop as it would likely mean being
hit from behind by someone driving at 90+
km/h. So, I slowed right down, moved as
close as I dared to my left and crossed my
fi ngers. Thankfully, it all worked out!

HANDYMAN CHALLENGE
The first thing that greeted me last week
on a visit to Moun-tainaire Avian Rescue Society (MARS) was the mournful “bleat-ing” that announced the arrival of the first fawn of 2012.
Looking into a cage nestled in blankets under a heat lamp was one fragile black tailed fawn that had been found by the road and picked up by well meaning passersby. Each year MARS sends out the same message “If you care – leave them there.” In other words, do not touch baby wildlife, especially fawns, seal pups, raccoons, ducklings, birds or any other species. This time last year we had 11 fawns and expect another influx this year in the next few weeks as the
cold spring may have delayed their arrival.
Many of the fawns we receive or rescue at the center have been “kidnapped” by well-meaning people who do not understand the negative impact they will have on the fawn’s survival. A doe will hide her fawn in the forest amongst the bushes or brush under the trees whilst she goes foraging for food to top up her milk
supply. The fawns are perfectly camouflaged to blend in with their surround-ings, brown and white spotted coats resemble the sun dappled bushes.
Instinctively, the fawns know to remain silent and completely still; not even twitch-ing their ears. By approaching a hid-den fawn, you not only scare away the
doe who is often very close by, but you may also attract unwanted predators to the fawn’s location. It is a myth that a doe will not take back a fawn that has been handled by humans, we success-fully reunited a fawn and doe after the fawn had been in captivity for two days.
Fawns must be fed every few hours throughout the day and are unable to travel very far during the first two months after birth. This time is also critical for the fawn’s future survival, the mother passes on not only foraging and survival skills but her precious antibodies which will help the fawn fend off certain diseases which can attack the deer caus-ing diarrhea, dehydra-tion and eventually death.
It is against the Wildlife Act to keep any species in captiv-ity and before assum-ing that an animal
or bird is injured or orphaned please call our emergency line at 1-800-304-9968 and we can advise you on how to proceed if neces-sary.
During the time I have volunteered at MARS. I have seen the results of people interfering with wild-life trying to raise baby fawns, racoons, birds, ducklings or other species, but often they end up kill-ing them with kind-ness. Proper diet and
understanding on how to administer the food is often very difficult. We cannot begin to replicate the methods used by the parents, many birds are fed regurgitated food, oth-ers allow the baby to help themselves from inside their mouth or crop, and a doe will lick the fawn to stimu-late them to suckle, none of which I would want to do.
We are hoping to raise funds to build a permanent fawn
barn to house the fawns which can be very time consuming and their special milk formula is also very expensive. On average, one fawn consumes 1.2 liters of milk a day. We are all very aware of fawns in our areas and some think they are a nuisance, but it is our impact from continually encroach-ing into their habitat and pushing them into ever-shrinking areas which encourages them to dine in our gardens and occasion-ally become aggres-sive with pets and humans. What can you do to help?
If you find a fawn watch, wait and call us for advice, if it is on the road carefully move it into the bush if safe to do so.
If you see deer at the side of the road slow down expect the deer to jump out, keep your eyes out for them espe-cially when travelling at dawn and dusk.
Obey the “deer
crossing” signs, they really do cross there.
If you find a dead deer on the road please where possible move it to the side of the road as this will then attract other ani-mals and birds, espe-cially eagles, who may also get hit feeding on the carcass.
If you find a baby bird (without feathers) please try to locate the nest and where pos-sible replace the bird, the mother will find it and feed it.
Feathered songbirds cannot fly when they fledge and need to run along the ground for a few days.
Please try to follow these simple rules and enjoy baby wild-life from a distance, remember to keep pets indoors or on a leash when walking in parks or along the shorelines.

Sandy FairfieldMARS Moment
Michele Fitzgerald has been
using her bike as one mode of transport to get herself to and from work for six years.
Fitzgerald lives on Quadra Island, and after a workplace move in September 2006, she realized com-muting by car on a daily basis would be an expensive under-taking. Instead, she chose to drive to the ferry terminal on Quadra, walk on the
ferry with her bike, and then bike to work – and she’s done this year round and in all weather conditions ever since.
Now she’s com-pletely hooked on cycling to work. She always feels great after her morning and afternoon commute. On the few occasions when she has to use her car to commute, “the whole day just feels wrong,” she says.
Fitzgerald is full of enthusiasm about the benefits she got
from biking to work. She calls cycling “her morning coffee,” that pumps oxygen to the brain, and provides a wakeup call for her body, along with time for reflection.
Fitzgerald has a number of tips for new cyclists.
She was lucky when she started commut-ing that it didn’t rain a single day for two months. So, she was hooked before the rain came. She rec-ommends starting in the nicer weather,
and then sticking to it. Some days, she admits, it’s a wet ride, but she always brings a complete change of clothes, socks and all, and it’s all good.
She also suggests working it into a daily routine so that commuting by bike becomes the norm.
Finally, she suggests getting decent gear so you’re prepared to be comfortable no mat-ter what the weather. “You don’t even have to spend very much,” she says.
Michele’s hooked on the cycling commute
Michele Fitzgerald (right) and Carol Woolsey enjoy a bike commute.
It’s the annual “If you care, leave them there” time

A new public art piece has been installed at the Com-munity Centre.
A partnership between the Campbell River Arts Council, John Howard Society, the Coastal Commu-nity Credit Union and the City created the program that brought
together artist Jill Banting and the youth of John Howard to create a vibrant piece of public art. Work-ing together, Banting and a number of youth representatives from John Howard designed a window art transfer intended to bring vibrancy and
energy to a popular, yet otherwise dull and colourless, part of the city. The public artwork sends a posi-tive message that local youth are taking pride in their city and using art to revitalize our collective downtown space.
The process is an
example of how part-nerships between local business, social services, the Arts Council, youth groups and the City can combine to envision projects that make our downtown core a more attractive place. Epic Design did the print job on the window.

Pitch and releaseThe peewee Mets pitcher tries to keep the Yankee runner at first base honest during Campbell River Minor Baseball action at Nunns Creek Park on Saturday afternoon.
The motorcycles lit up the race track at Saratoga Speedway last weekend.
T h e M o t o r c y -cles were up in bikes on Saturday, with a field of six taking to the track. Bruce Moran (#68) dominated the motorcycle division on Saturday, setting fast time in qualifying with a time of 23.120. From that point on, Moran had no com-petition, taking home wins in the dash, heat and leading all but four laps in the main event to win every race in the motorcycle division. So far this season, Moran has won six of seven races, proving that you’re going to have to bring your best to beat him.
Daryl Cahill (#02) dominated the 35-lap feature for the hor-net cars, leading all but four laps and tak-ing home his second-straight main event
win, inching his way closer to catching his brother Daryn Cahill (#08) for first overall in the points race.
The I.M.C.A modi-fieds, bomber cars and the motorcycles were also all on the racing card on Saturday.
The I.M.C.A Modi-
fieds were making their second appear-ance of the year. Bart Smith (#00) once again set fast time with a time of 15.312. Smith took home the win in the dash, with a hard fought win in the heat going to Kevin Noble (#53). Seven cars took
to the track for their 30 lap feature race. Tim Openshaw (#44) battled Smith, Noble and others to hold his lead for the first 20 laps. A lap car on lap 20 caused Openshaw, Pat Brown (#98) and Smith to go four wide down the back stretch,

Literally moments before taking the floor on Sunday May 27 for the game against Oceanside Bantam B, the Windsor Plywood Bantam Ravens were officially notified by Vancouver Is land Minor Lacrosse that they had been relegated from B to C division. If the standard for B
division is a minimum of 35 years of experi-ence (total team expe-rience after removing the highest and lowest values), the Ravens are around 25. The relega-tion of the Ravens plus two other teams from B to C should result in closer, more competi-tive games to the end of the regular season.
The players reacted to this news as if a weight had been lifted off of their shoulders. Their relaxed state didn’t mean they were going to let Oceanside run over them…far from it! Nolan Morri-son opened the scoring with a wicked shot to the goalie’s stick-side.
He came to the bench and shared with every-one “he gave me that whole side…it’s wide-open!”
To help illustrate his point, Morrison scored the first three goals for the Ravens and their final one as well. He finished with four goals

in the game – three to the same spot. Greatly improved positioning on defence and com-mitment to each other
helped the Ravens avoid panic and frustration as they finished the first period trailing by a score of 5-4.
The second period
b e l o n g e d t o t h e Ravens.
N o l a n Fa i r w a s rewarded for play-ing tight defence as he earned a few loose
balls that he either con-verted into breakaways for himself or used to send others on runs of their own. Fair led all Raven scorers with one goal and four assists. Goalie Will McLean was solid between the pipes, sometimes stopping three or four shots within a five or 10 second span. After one flurry, McLean scooped the ball into his goalie stick and looked towards mid-court for the usual out-let pass. Ross Rickman
was there with his stick up, basket high, giving McLean an excellent target. Despite light pressure from Ocean-side, McLean stepped into his pass. Rickman caught the ball cleanly and quickly turned up the floor. Like Wayne Gretzky or Mario Lemieux putting a move on a defenceman at the blueline, Rickman slipped through the Oceanside defenders and took the ball to the net with a great burst of speed. Remember-
ing Morrison’s words, Rickman fired a rocket on net to the stick-side and scored his first goal of the season to give the Ravens a lead of 7-6 at the end of the second.
The third period saw Oceanside respond with a vengeance. They let it all hang out in an effort to score. The Ravens focused on controlling the ball, steering the ball-carrier into the corner and contain-ing them. Oceanside scored six goals in the third period while the
Ravensonly added two more of their own. Final score was 12-9 in favour of Oceanside.
Additional Raven scoring came from Zach Lontayao (two goals), Connor Ludvig-son (two assists), Reilly Doney (1G), Daniel Gil-son (1A), David Lavigne (1A) and Jasper Oster-hout-Code (1A).
The schedule-makers are still working on the revised schedule for the Bantam C Ravens so stay tuned for their next game.

with Smith coming out of it in first place, dropping Openshaw into third place. Smith would pull away from the pack from there, taking home his second main event win of the year.
The bomber cars were also making their sec-ond appearance of the year on Saturday. In the 30-lap feature, Darren
Larson (#5) got out to an early lead and held onto it for the first 10 laps until Stewart Lee (#72) fought his way around the outside of Larson coming out of turn four to take the lead. Lee had no com-petition from there, stretching his lead over Gilles Cyr to over half a lap and eventually tak-ing home the win.
The hor net cars were racing for the
second weekend in a row on Saturday. The 35-lap feature main event was dominated by Daryl Cahill (#02). Daryl took the lead on lap four and stretched his lead from there, lapping several cars in his path. Kevin and Jennifer Lawrenuk would battle for second and third with brother Kevin eventually tak-ing home second, and third going to Jenni-
fer.
Extra laps
Next weekend fea-tures crash to pass, roadrunners and the hornet cars. June 16 is the annual Car Toss C o m p e t i t i o n . T h e record for the competi-tion is 64 feet, six inches set in 2008; crash to pass, hornets and road-runners will also be on the racing card.
