ALISTAIR TAYLORCAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Mayor Walter Jakeway took a different approach to initiating change in the City of Campbell River last Thursday.

“Today is about the future,” Jakeway told a Chamber of Com-merce luncheon. “It’s about our future here in Campbell River. It’s about our bright future.”

The mayor was in a philosophi-cal mood, expressing a theme of his mayoralty through a quote by Rahm Emanuel, Mayor of Chi-cago and former White House chief of staff, who said, “No city today can function as in the past and as if the past responsibilities are going to hold true today.”

There was none of the city bureaucrat bashing the mayor employed at a Rotary Club speech

on May 23 for which he was either roasted or applauded by the pub-lic and which led to city counillor Mary Storry calling for a confi-dential review of the mayor’s role as spokesperson for the city. The review was held but no report or statement about what went on came out of it.

At the May 23 Rotary meeting, Jakeway said, “City hall is an example of how they’re doing

it in the least effective way. City staff say how hard they’re work-ing; do I care how hard they’re working? No, I don’t, if the results aren’t there.

“Wasting hard-earned taxpay-ers’ money is not acceptable to me,” Jakeway continued. “I didn’t run to leave things how they are, I ran to shake it up.”

The mayor approached last Thursday’s Chamber of Com-

merce meeting as an exchange of ideas. He delivered a speech in which city staff were not men-tioned, although he did say he thought there would have been more people at this meeting after the speech he delivered to the Rotary Club.

Continuing his penchant for quotes, he told the chamber meet-ing that the former marketing

Scene & Heard

Laura Ritchie was behind the bar at the Deadwood Saloon.

Christina Belanko served up some of the great fare.

Sue Paterson, Heather Gordon Murphy and Anne Koebel spiced up the dance hall.

Gail Folliott and Joan Sherlow were all smiles as the mys-tery was investigated.

Best Little Dance Hall in DeadwoodIt was a night of murder and mayhem in the Wild West Coast at the Maritime Heritage Centre Friday. The annual River Spirit Dragon Boat Society fundraising murder mystery. A special guest appearance was made by Sweet Tease Burlesque and there was a live auction for six great prizes. Written by Susan Haley of Haley produc-tions, the murder mystery tells the tale of a downtrodden, almost forgotten town that once thrived and prospered. Now the town has lost not only its fortune but its fame and its population. It was just another night in Deadwood, only this time it was more deadly than usual...

chief at Telus wrote a book entitled Be Differ-ent or Be Dead.

“Is Campbell River different – really dif-ferent?” he asked. “Yes. We know it is differ-ent, that is why we live here. Are we willing to tell the world? Turn it around – why would we not?”

Jakeway put to the chamber members in attendance the ques-tion: if you had $1 mil-lion of “mad money” to spend right now on the future of Campbell River, what would you do?

“To me, politicians are always talking but are seldom listening,” Jakeway said. “Active communication is a

two-way street. Shar-ing of ideas is abso-lutely vital. Today is your chance to share and think and be cre-ative.

Campbell River is a vibrant and diverse p o p u l a t i o n a n d although we each have different needs, we all have the same basic desire – to be heard and respected.

“Today can be a posi-tive turning point for Campbell River if we as a city and commu-nity have a financially responsible, benevo-lent, yet common sense approach.

“Our city and area have huge potential and the outcomes are only limited by our lack of creativity and

shortage of imagina-tion. Are we collec-tively willing to take the risk? To be bold? Take the challenge? To unashamedly promote Campbell River and region in non-tradi-tional, radical ways?”

Jakeway said if even just two potentially good ideas come from last Thursday’s meet-ing, or the fuse has been lit for some basic follow-up ideas, then the session will have been successful.

For Campbell River to survive, it is up to us, Jakeway said. The big economic players have left and the magi-cal recovery has not materialized. Big gov-ernment has promised some help but it is still

a year or two away. We need a mix of short term and long term views and actions, he said.

“As taxpayers and local gover nment, we need to challenge everything,” Jakeway said. “Past assump-tions may not still hold true.”

Jakeway’s ideas for change involve focus-ing on developing skills either through education – and becom-ing an educational hub – or through new arriv-als, bringing in immi-grants with skills.

“ M a n u f a c t u r i n g requires technologi-cal skills. It’s great to be creative but it takes technical skill to con-vert creativity into

reality. If the current resident Canadians can’t or won’t supply it, the foreign workers will.”

Campbell River needs to attract manufactur-ing business, some creative industries ventures and some high tech opportuni-ties, he said. There are some big projects

coming online that will provide Campbell River some “breath-ing room” – the John Hart Dam upgrade and the new hospital – but they won’t fix the problem, Jakeway said. The focus must be on fresh energetic ideas, a future with a clear, positive direc-tion while working

within balanced, ratio-nal financial goals.

Jakeway said that during the summer he will be hosting two-three sessions at the Enterprise Centre to invite people with ideas burning in their skulls to come and dis-cuss them with people from the community or the chamber.

Council wages went up last year, according to the city’s statement of financial informa-tion released last Friday.

Annual earnings for councillors varied as 2011 was an election year and not all coun-cillors – or the mayor – finished the year in office.

Re-elected council-lors Andy Adams, Ryan Mennie, Claire Moglove and Mary Storry made $21,117 last year while incom-

ing councillors Ron Kerr and Larry Sam-son each made $687 after taking office at the end of November.

Councillors Roy Grant and Ziggy Stewart, who were not re-elected, each took home $20,430 in 2011. Both men unsuccess-fully ran for mayor and gave up their spot on council in the pro-cess.

Mayor Walter Jake-way made $2,033 last year after winning November’s municipal election while former Mayor Charlie Corn-field earned $57,955.

Last year’s earn-

ings for the mayor and councillors rep-resent a 1.02 per cent increase over 2010 wages.

Two years ago, all councillors received an annual pay of $20,764 while the mayor received $58,854.

Had Cornfield remained in office until the end of 2011 he would have increased his salary to $59,988 last year.

Council racked up $43,847 in expenses for attending out of town meetings.

The city also paid out a further $14.9 mil-

lion to its staff.The highest earner

at city hall was City Manager Andy Laid-law who made $146,346 in 2011.

Ron Neufeld, gen-eral manager of city operations, took home $121,527 while Dave Morris, general man-ager of facilities and supply, made $116,414 last year and Laura Ciarniello, the city’s corporate services manager, earned $115,426.

Deputy fire chiefs Tim Paul and Ian Bai-kie were the highest paid city staff outside of city hall, making

$157,368 and $111,208 last year respectively.

Council’s pay cheques are bolstered by the Strathcona Regional District, which has yet to release its financial statements.

Directors are paid for each board, com-mittee or commission they are appointed to.

In 2010 Adams did not receive any pay from the regional dis-trict while Moglove made $13,200; Storry made $13,075 and Men-nie earned $1,000 as an alternate director to the regional district board.

HOROSCOPESThe week of June 24–30, 2012The week of June 24–30, 2012

ARIESYou may have to make an important decision that concerns all the family. Take the time to weigh all the pros and cons with accurate information before making a choice.

TAURUSWait to receive all the results before worrying about your health. You may tend to dra-matize a fairly minor prob-lem before even seeing your doctor.

GEMINIYou’ll have quite a challenge on your hands when you have to prove that you’re the right person for a very precise job or post at work or elsewhere.

CANCERIf there is a move on the horizon, you must be sure to try and save your strength. Fortunately you’ll show lots of determination when the time comes to reposition your things.

LEOYou could end up stuck in several traffi c jams. Before starting out be sure to check the traffi c reports if there is road work on your route. Remember that being stuck in traffi c is a good time to think through your plans.

VIRGOThe purchase of a house is, above all, a very good invest-ment. Create a smart budget for your situation and you will not have to tighten your belt too much.

LIBRAYou want to be in the action, and your sense of initiative is at its peak at the moment. You will take your rightful place either at work or in your personal life.

SCORPIOYou may feel a certain amount of accumulated tiredness as the week pro-gresses. It will be important for you to take the time to rest and relax to rid yourself of the stress.

SAGITTARIUSDon’t be surprised if some of your friends invite you to register for diff erent activi-ties with them this summer. Go along with it, as it will all keep you busy during your holidays.

Flooding is not a concern in Campbell River like it currently is in the Fraser Valley, however, river levels will be going up as BC Hydro manages higher volumes of water and a melting snow pack.

Starting last night, BC Hydro opened up the John Hart Dam floodgates to increase the Elk Falls Canyon flow by about 10 times. and the downstream Campbell River flow by about 30 per cent

This is being done to control the upper watershed reservoir levels. Fortunately, there isn’t believed to be any risk of down-stream flooding.

“BC Hydro advises the public to be cau-tious around the Camp-bell River,” said spokes-man Stephen Watson in a news release. “BC Hydro continues to prohibit public access from our property into the Campbell River out of concern for the large spruce tree that is posi-tioned across the river downstream.”

The water “dumping” will continue through July 3, and perhaps

longer. Total Campbell River flow during this time will be around 160 cubic metres per second. BC Hydro will review operations and the water supply fore-cast in early July to make further adjust-ments as needed.

The Upper Campbell Reservoir/Buttle Lake is currently at 219.9 metres. BC Hydro would prefer not to operate it above 220.5 metres out of concern for shoreline erosion.

The reservoir rose

about one metre the week of June 11, and from Friday to Mon-day, the level increased by 40 centimetres. The primary reason for both events was heavy rain and snow melt. Water inflows on Saturday hit 270 cubic metres per second.

The snow pack is still high and BC Hydro is releasing the water to continue to absorb the snow melt that will likely continue into early August.

BC Hydro’s updated

water supply outlook for the June to Sep-tember period shows water flows into the Campbell River sys-tem to be about 133 per cent above normal, with a standard error of about 10 per cent should it be dry or wet. There is a lot of water

this year, similar to last year.

In looking ahead to August, BC Hydro’s goal is to control the Upper Campbell Res-ervoir in the 220 metre range through the rest of the summer and have the downstream Campbell River flow at

about 40 cubic metres per second in time for some gravel placement projects in the river and the pink salmon fishery. This may be subject to change based on weather events.

The last time BC Hydro released water down Elk Falls Can-

yon was on Oct. 6, 2011. The last time BC Hydro spilled water for flood risk management in the June to July period was 1999. BC Hydro has already been operating outside of its water license since mid-May to accommodate the forecasted inflows.

Expect an appeal of a decision against the law forbidding physician-assisted suicide in Canada.

The momentous ruling June 15 by B.C. Supreme Court Judge Lynn Smith would likely be appealed whichever way it went.

As it is, she upheld a challenge by three plaintiffs because the law’s provisions “unjustifiably infringe the equality rights” of one of the trio as well as “the rights to life,

liberty and security” of the other two. If law is expected to mirror the values of the

people to whom it applies, it’s hard to accept a

continuation of the status quo. For example, 21 per cent of respondents in a Forum Research survey of Canadians in December opposed physician-assisted suicide and 12 per cent said they had no opinion. Sixty-seven per cent said they support physician-assisted suicide. Tell that to the B.C. and Canadian governments, whose lawyers vigourously argued for assisted suicide to remain punishable by as much as 14 years in prison.

Would legalizing or decriminalizing doctor-assisted suicide result in abuse of the aged and vulnerable? Would the decision cause a “slippery slope” that would lead to other rulings that could undermine the sanctity of life? Those are only two valid concerns.

In spite of astounding medical advances, people still die agonizing deaths from afflictions such as Lou Gehrig’s Disease, with no hope of cure or much relief.

Should society legally or morally have the right to tell you or a loved one in this frightful predicament that – in spite of being informed, mentally competent and not coerced – that you must continue to suffer against your wishes?

Governments have a year before the ruling takes effect. May they use the time to wrestle honestly and fairly with this weighty matter that no doubt gave Smith some sleepless nights.

Ruling raises difficult issueOur ViewOur View

B.C.’s ‘poverty’ line declines, nobody notices

We say: But there are valid concerns about assisted suicide

You probably didn’t hear this on TV, the percentage of Canadians deemed “low income” went down slightly in 2010, according to the latest Statistics Canada analysis.

This news was delivered in the annual “Income of Canadians” report last week. The share of peo-ple who fall below the federal Low-Income Cut-Off (LICO) went from 9.5 per cent to 9.0.

The CBC couldn’t bring itself to admit any actual improvement, reporting on its website that the number of people with “low income” was about three million, “virtually unchanged from 2009.” Other media outlets followed the unwritten rule that nothing remotely positive must be presented as news, particularly if

it reflects positively on a right-wing government. (Plus they had the Mon-treal body-parts case to update each day.)

This information likely won’t have any effect on the political discussion about “poverty” in B.C. The LICO survey will continue to be used as a measure of absolute poverty, despite the fact that it isn’t. It’s a relative measure that will always designate the same share of people at the low end of the scale.

BC Stats, the provincial equivalent of the federal agency, explained this problem in a special report last year.

“To illustrate,” the report said, “take a hypothetical future Canada where every citizen earns no less than $100,000 (and assume there has

not been rampant inflation in the meantime, such that buying power is not dissimilar to what exists today) and millionaires are common.

“In that kind of Canada, those at the low end of the income scale (that is, those earning ‘merely’ $100,000) would be considered poor if LICOs were used as a measure of poverty.”

Math aside, that’s the alleged “pov-erty line” routinely cited by the usual media authorities, like B.C. Federa-tion of Labour president Jim Sin-clair.

Sinclair campaigned for years to get the B.C. government to raise the minimum wage from $8 to $10 an hour. They did, in three increments, and on May 1 it increased to $10.25 an hour.

As soon as the series of three increases was announced last Novem-ber, Sinclair called a news conference to announce it’s not enough.

To get to the LICO level, the mini-mum wage should be $11.50 an hour, Sinclair said. Of course, if B.C. busi-nesses ponied up for that, the goal-posts would shift again and the same proportion of “poverty” would magi-cally still exist.

The B.C. NDP government-in-wait-ing continues to demand an “action plan” on poverty, with annual goals. All the progressive provinces have one, which I guess is why poverty is all but eradicated in enlightened places like Manitoba.

There are signs of the reality behind this political smokescreen.

Thank you for writing and publishing the recent story re: teen crime ring faces restorative justice, it was a valuable public service message.

It could have impact all the way around, many mes-sages can be learned from the story. Starting with sim-ply locking your vehicles, to keeping a closer eye on your teenagers, even the peer pressure many teens face. But the message that restorative justice practitioners would like heard, is when a crime occurs, many are harmed by the event – the victim, the community, and the offender. To bring all the parties together, find an agreeable resolution to repair the harm, not only gives a voice to the victims, but gives the offender an oppor-tunity to understand the impact of their crime. Most offenders do not carry on to cause harm against the community they feel supported by. The community of Campbell River has been very supportive of this program. I appreciate your willingness to give the pubic a small glance into a innovative approach to reducing crime, that is gaining ground all around the world.

awesome from beginning to end and it made our day. Unfortunately there are too many places that are not honest or friendly but the staff at Lubex totally rock in our opinion. – Andy and Paula Young

HEROES – So many heroes to thank for making our Fun Fair at Ecole Mer et Montagne such a huge success: Parents, students, volunteers... who spent hundreds of hours preparing for it.

TALK OF THE TOWN

PAUL RUDANCAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Judge Roderick Sut-ton wanted to send a message to Aaron D ’ A l l e s a n d r o f o r breaching his condi-tional sentence order.

It should have been the classic line from

the Wizard of Oz, “There’s no place like home.”

But, after getting his chance to serve his sentence at home, and failing to abide by the rules, D’Allesandro will be serving the remaining 29 days behind bars, along with

seven additional days due to his breaches.

“A message needs to be delivered,” said Judge Sutton on Mon-day in Campbell River provincial court.

D ’ A l l e s a n d r o appeared by video from jail cells in Victoria after being arrested on

a warrant June 13.The 22-year-old, who

has a previous convic-tion for assault caus-ing bodily harm, had been given a 45-day conditional sentence on May 14, by Judge Peter Doherty, for two counts of theft under $5,000.

The convictions stem from April 26-27, when D’Allesandro stole $100 worth of lottery tickets from one business and followed up the next day by stealing $40 in shaving supplies from London Drugs.

However, after being handed the conditional

sentence – meaning he could serve his time at home on strict condi-tions – D’Allesandro was no where to be found when police checked on him May 18, at 2:47 a.m., just four days after he was sentenced.

C a m p b e l l R ive r

RCMP make it a habit of checking up on peo-ple who are on proba-tion or who are serving conditional sentences – particularly in the middle of the night.

O n M a y 2 2 , D’Allesandro failed to report to his con-

Thief should know, there’s no place like home

With donations down, The Campbell River Salvation Army is ask-ing the community for help re-stocking their food pantry as supplies run out.

“We have been see-ing a change in demo-graphics recently with an increase in lower income families with children accessing our

services,” said fam-ily services in-take worker Betty Tiede. “It’s becoming more of a challenge to pack nutritionally balanced hampers.”

The Salvation Army in Campbell River operates the back-up emergency food bank and provides food ham-pers four times a year

to households which meet the criteria for assistance.

“I don’t really think the community in general is even aware that we offer this type of assistance,” said The Salvation Army’s Community Ministries Director Kevin Mack. “On average we assist approximately 400 local

households per year with food hampers.”

While The Salvation Army’s Christmas ket-tle fundraiser was suc-cessful this past year, food donations in par-ticular have decreased significantly over pre-vious years.

“We are concerned we won’t be able to keep up with demand,” said Mack. There are many families in our community struggling to keep afloat.”

N o n - p e r i s h a b l e food donations can be dropped off at The Sal-

vation Army’s Ocean Crest Community Church at 291 McLean Street Monday-Friday from 9 a.m. - 4 p.m.

“Items such as small peanut butter, pasta sauce, spaghetti, noo-dles, jam, crackers, canned veggies, canned

fruit and canned meat, especially tuna are in high demand,” said Tiede

C a s h d o n a t i o n s toward the purchase of food are also greatly appreciated. Call 250-287-3720 for more infor-mation.

ditional sentence supervisor. Then, on May 23, at 11:30 p.m., police again knocked on his apartment door – this time for 12 minutes – but he never answered.

As a result, a warrant for D’Allesandro’s arrest was issued. When he appeared in court Monday, Crown pros-ecutor John Boccabella asked

the judge terminate the condi-tional sentence and to replace that with jail.

Defence lawyer James Hor-moth said D’Allesandro had to move out of the apartment due to the frequent checks by police which was upsetting the other tenants.

He also said D’Allesandro plans to enter the Second Chance Recovery House after

his sentence is over and to fol-low up with further residentialtreatment for an undisclosedsubstance abuse problem.

H o w e v e r, B o c c a b e l l a expressed skepticism overD’Allesandro’s excuse for beingout of his residence.

So did the judge as he ordered D’Allesandro to serve out the29 days, and seven new days,behind bars.

KRISTEN DOUGLASCAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

A 90-metre long sus-pension bridge over Elk Falls could be open to the public as soon as next June.

The Campbell River Rotary Club project has been in the works for some time, but now the proposal has been offi-cially released to the public, complete with a timeline and budget.

T h e s u s p e n s i o n bridge is expected to hang 60 metres above the canyon floor to provide breathtaking views of one of the area’s most well-known natural wonders.

The first 40 metres of the south side of the bridge would be in the trees and could be accessed from the existing trail along the falls.

“This project will s h ow c a s e o n e o f Campbell River’s most spectacular natural wonders by providing a clear, unobstructed view of the falls and canyon,” said Lorrie Bewza, chair of the Elk Falls Suspension Bridge Project.

The goal is to model the bridge after exist-ing suspension bridges over Englishman River, Capilano River and Lynn Valley Canyon in the Lower Mainland.

Those bridges are constructed with steel cables strung between two anchor points, but final design and detail for the Elk Falls bridge

won’t be complete until a geotechnical study is conducted and a request for proposals issued, Bewza said.

The Elk Falls project also includes two new viewing platforms and trail expansion.

“The f irst view-ing platform will be accessed from the lower parking lot, which now provides access to the existing viewing plat-form,” Bewza said.

“This portion of the trail is very flat and will allow seniors as well as children and those with mobility challenges to view the spillway and

provide a partial view of Elk Falls.”

A further 60 metres down the existing user trail would be an access point to the suspension bridge and the start of a new trail which would descend 10-12 metres down to a second pro-posed new viewing plat-form with a direct view of the falls.

“The viewing plat-form is envisioned as a cantilevered platform,” Bewza said.

“It is possible to see the entire falls from the top of the falls to the bottom of the can-yon floor.”

The Rotary Club would also like to com-plete the Upper Can-yon View Trail loop by constructing a trail from the north end of the suspension bridge to the existing Dean Martin mountain bike trail.

B e w z a s a i d t h e suspension bridge and view points will increase tourism to Campbell River as the Englishman River sus-pension bridge has done for the Nanaimo-Parksville area.

“The view of Elk Falls

and the canyon itself is so fantastic that we can expect a large increase in traffic,” Bewza said. “According to BC Parks there are approxi-mately 70,000 day use visitors per year at Elk Falls Park. It is reason-able to expect the num-ber of tourist visits to increase by 50-100 per cent.”

She said an increase of 35,000-70,000 visitors could mean an extra $2.5-$5 million a year injected into the local economy, according to statistics recorded

by the Campbell River Visitor Centre.

The entire project is estimated to cost $550,000 with the bridge coming in at $300,000.

The Rotary Club has confirmed it will spend $75,000 and a corporate sponsor has committed to making up $150,000 of the project costs.

Rotary is also hop-ing for funding from the Island Coastal Eco-nomic Trust; $25,000 in in-kind contributions as well as $75,000 from other various contribu-tors.

Rotary submitted its project proposal to BC Parks this month.

The club hopes to obtain grant approval by September; issue request for proposals to the project finalist in October and submit complete plans to BC Parks for final approval this winter.

If all goes accord-ing to plan, Rotary expects the project to be completed sometime between May and June of next year, with open-ing day in either June or July of 2013.

Managing Your Money

Your wedding day is right around the corner. You’re practicing your reception speech. You love each other and you’re making a lifetime commitment. You’ve no doubt talked frequently about your future together but did your talks include dollar signs? Money is always one of the most challenging aspects of a relationship, especially if you’re about to become part of a blended family. Here are some prenup nancial basics to smooth your transition to married life:

Consider a prenup A written prenuptial agreement can protect certain assets accumulated before your marriage or for children from a previous relationship. Each party should receive independent legal advice and speak to an experienced family lawyer about what should and shouldn’t be in the agreement and make sure the agreement is signed well in advance of the wedding day.

Tell all, know all Each of you should disclose assets, loans and other nancial commitments and credit history. A partner’s undisclosed poor credit history could cause unpleasant surprises when you’re applying for a joint credit card or a loan.

Pick an asset If one or both of you brought assets, like a house or car, into the union, decide if you should keep or sell them. Alternatively, one person may “buy” their share of a larger asset (such as a home), by giving the other

spouse assets worth half the value of that property.

Merge or purge Decide if it’s best to maintain separate bank accounts, credit cards and investments or to merge them to eliminate duplication and enhance nancial bene ts. Also consider this, while it may be nancially advantageous to pool your investments for a more robust portfolio, keeping assets separate can avoid legal implications in the event of a separation or divorce. You may also want to keep assets separate in the event you want to leave them to children from a previous relationship.

Share your goals Agree on shared nancial goals, like buying a home or starting a family. If you have children, invest in an RESP to help save for their education.

Protect your partner Disability insurance can provide a steady income stream for your family if you are unable to work. Life insurance can provide a lump sum to your bene ciaries. Mortgage protection can pay off

that large debt. Entering a blended family? You may need to update your bene ciary designations.

Reduce your tax bill Take advantage of all available deductions and such income-splitting opportunities as spousal RRSPs and pension income-splitting. Use effective tax-planning and investment strategies to gain immediate and long-term retirement bene ts.

A new will makes it right Except in Québec and Alberta, marriage usually voids all earlier wills – so update yours. Speak to an experienced lawyer to update your wills. For more plans and strategies that will build the strongest nancial foundation for your unique union, talk to your professional advisor.

She grew up and went to school in Abbotsford.As a young woman, Tami palled around with number of good friends and it was one of those friends, Rob Brown, who, in 1993, invited her to visit him in Baden Baden, Germany where he was stationed with the Canadian military. Tami stayed with Rob, working on the base as civilian. When the base closed, they moved back to Canada and lived in Chatham NB and began a married life together. After their fi rst son Cody was born, they decided to move back to the ‘Coast’ to be closer to their families. They settled in Campbell River and both worked in their family business, Allpen Diving. Rob and Tami had two more sons, Devan and Owen. Tami’s legacy and her greatest joy were her sons and her family. She was the one who remembered all the birthdays and special events in the family and always organized amazing parties for her boys. She loved photography, constantly taking pictures and making wonderful projects using another passion, her scrap booking. Tami was involved with Oyster River School PAC and the boys’ baseball organizations, always volunteering her time for fundraisers and various events.Even after Tami’s health began to fail, her number one priority was always her children, fi ghting hard to make their lives as full and normal as possible.Tami was predeceased by her dad Dennis, in 2004. She is survived by her sons, Cody, Devan and Owen, her husband and best friend Robert, her mom Elfi e, brothers Kelly (Trisha) and Kevin (Joleen) Ringrose and brother-in law Jonathan (Laveena) Brown, mother-in-law Nancy (Bruce ) Colegrave, father-in-law Richard (Dawn ) Brown and her absolute joys, her nieces and nephews, Amie, Ryan, Dennis, Charie-Ann and Fraser. Tami’s love of life and her laughter will forever be held in the memories of all of us who loved her.The family would like to thank to Dr. Shuel, Dr. Kind, the staff at CR Hospital, and a special thank you to the wonderful nurses in medical day care and all those who supported Tami the past two years.At the family’s request, there will be no service but we invite everyone who knew and loved Tami to celebrate her life on Saturday, June 30, 1:00 – 4:OOpm at Jon & Laveena’s at 3995 York Road.In lieu of fl owers, those who wish, may donate to Campbell River Autism Society.

Stringer, Marian Edith Wales

December 9, 1924 – May 15, 2012

Gordon (Gord) is survived by 2 sons: Gary Carr (Patsy), William Carr (Donna) and 1 daughter: Patricia Carr. He is also survived by 7 grandchildren, 2 great grandchildren and brother: Jack Carr and sister: Dorothy Lepp.

Born in Regina, Sask., Gord joined HMCS Canadian Navy at 19 years old. During WWII, Gord’s duties included sailing the Atlantic Ocean, protecting merchant ships. He was in telecommunication, as a radio operator. Gord remained in the military for 25 years, ending his career as an instructor in Cornwallis, N.S.

Gord met his lovely future wife, Valeda, in 1945. His sister, Dorothy Lepp, introduced them. He remained a true companion until cancer claimed Valeda in 2001.

Gord and Val transferred to several Canadian military bases throughout his vocation. Once military life ended, they came to visit a friend on Cortes Island and they never left. Gord worked with BC Ferries, ending his working years as a deckhand on the vessel, Cortes Queen. Gord built a warm, inviting home which created many enduring friendships with people on and off the island.

Gord was widely known as a piano player. With his tenor voice and knowledge of music, he played with other members of the “Old Timers’ band on Cortes. He was truly a crowd pleaser, making many people happy. He would sometimes come to the Yuculta Lodge, in Campbell River, to play for the residents.

The keyboard is silent now. Gord lost his battle with multiple myeloma on June 13th.

His earthly vision of ‘the pearly gates’ was a white baby grand piano waiting for him.

I can hear him, can’t you? Play on, maestro, play on.

A memorial will be held in late summer.

Carr, Gordon Vincent May 27, 1921 – June 13, 2012

Frieda HildebrandWith sad hearts, we announce the passing of Frieda Hildeb-rand at St Joseph’s Hospital on June 24, 2012. Predeceased by her parents, Abram and Anna Tjart and husband Jake Hildebrand. She is survived by brother, Nick and his wife, Maria and 2 nieces, 2 nephews and one great-nephew.

Frieda was born in Russia and came to Canada in 1930. She lived in Black Creek most of

her life and worked at Super Value store for 24 years, until her retirement. She loved to travel and garden and was very involved in her church and Sunday school for many years.

A memorial service will be held at the United Mennonite Church in Black Creek on Saturday, June 30 at 2:00pm.

A change in the property assess-

ment value of the defunct Cata-

lyst Elk Falls pulp mill is going

to result in a 2012 tax revenue loss

to Campbell River in the range of

$1.8 million, City Manager Andy

Laidlaw said Tuesday.

If that loss was transferred

directly to residential taxpayers,

they would be required to pay 12

per cent more in property tax this

year, Laidlaw estimates.

But Campbell River Mayor Wal-

ter Jakeway is determined there

will be no property tax hikes for

homeowners this year.

In an interview prior to the

Catalyst notification from the BC

Assessment Authority (BCAA) he

said: “My personal intention is to

have a zero per cent tax increase

in 2012. That’s my personal goal

and I’m sure I can bring a few

other councillors along with me

without having to cut services too

badly.”The BCAA announced Tues-

day that the equipment removal

at the former Catalyst Elk Falls

pulp and paper mill means it

no longer meets the legislative

requirements for a major indus-

trial property.

“This will result in a decrease

of approximately $45 million dol-

lars in the major industry classi-

fication,” says BCAA Vancouver

Island Regional Assessor Bill

MacGougan.The city manager set the stage

KRISTEN DOUGLASCAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The city, School Dis-trict 72 and the RCMP are the first to sign on to the city’s first-ever Youth Charter.

R e p r e s e n t a t i v e s from the three orga-nizations took part in the ceremonial sign-ing during the June 12 council meeting.

The Charter was developed by the city’s Youth Action Commit-tee which is made up of 13 teens in Grades 9 through 12 who meet three times per month. The Charter is a set of vision statements that outline youth values, priorities and vision for Campbell River.

The Youth Action Committee will meet with the Charter sig-natories once a year to ensure the organi-zations are working towards meeting the goals of the Youth Charter.

“The Youth Action Committee will work with the city and part-ner organizations to move toward imple-menting the youth vision over time,” said Mariah Carpen-ter, chair of the Youth

Action Committee, in a report to council. “YAC may also invite addi-tional organizations to sign on to the Charter on an annual basis.”

The committee has worked on several projects throughout the school year.

One of those is work-ing to find youth enter-tainment at venues such as Spirit Square and the Tidemark The-atre.

Carpenter told coun-cil she attended the Shania Twin (imper-sonator) concert with her mother in April and the audience was mostly older adults. Carpenter said she’d like to see acts geared towards teenagers and suggested bringing in one of the bands from Carihi.

“We’ve been brain-stor ming what we want to see,” Carpen-ter said.

The Youth Commit-tee has also been look-ing into the concept of a youth centre – a safe place for youth to go that’s all their own.

Timberline student Paige Derouin said the committee conducted a survey of 357 students in Grades 7-12, and 250

said they would go to a youth centre while just more than 100 said they had no interest in such a place.

The Youth Commit-tee has also been busy fundraising.

The students sold visual representations of what the committee does during the Earth Week Film Festival and raised $950.

Of that amount, $400 was given to the Moun-tainaire Avian Rescue Society; $400 was put towards a bursary in 2013 for a student plan-ning to study in the environmental field; and $150 was donated to the Robron Centre Community Garden.

Coun. Claire Moglove was impressed with the students’ efforts.

“We very much appreciate your enthu-siasm, you’re the future of Campbell River so your voices are very important,” she said.

The committee will be actively recruiting two new members in the fall, as two stu-dents will be gradu-ating from Grade 12 this month. The other members all plan to return.

RICKYS PROCESS

PAUL RUDANCAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

For a guy quickly b e c o m i n g famous for his

running, Cam Levins is sure doing a lot of sitting.

H i s u n t o u c h e d cheeseburger is get-ting cold too as the 23-year-old signs auto-graph after autog raph f o r t h e seemingly never-end-ing line-up of friends and supporters.

It’s Friday night and they’re all packed into the Black Creek Hall to see the 23-year-old who recently claimed two NCAA track and field titles in the 5,000- and 10,000-metre events.

“It’s incredible to see everyone. Thank-you for being here,” Levins says later in the eve-ning when he finally has a chance to get up to address the crowd.

It’s certainly a par-tisan audience and Levins is a worthy local hero as he pre-pares for the formality of the Canadian track and field finals to be topped off with the Olympic Games.

“I’ll bet my house he will hold the Canadian records…he’s the Steve Nash of running,” says Mark Cryderman of Campbell River, an avid runner, in com-paring Levins to the Victoria-born basket-ball player.

The Levins’ star is rising fast, propelled by a finishing sprint-

ers’ kick that has the track world abuzz.

“To people who know running, (sprinting is) phenomenally dif-ficult to do at the end of a 1,500-metre run, never mind 5,000 or 10,000 metres,” points out John May of the Comox Valley Cougars Track and Field Club.

T h e “Levins’ K i c k ” w a s i n full dis-play June 6, at the N C A A track and

field championships in Des Moines, Iowa, dur-ing the 10,000-metre final.

More than 3,000 kilo-metres away, at G.P. Vanier Secondary in Courtenay, Levins’ fans watched the race on the big screen.

It was the annual sports awards night at Vanier and, ironically, athletic director Larry Street was about to present Levins’ par-ents, Gus and Barb, with a plaque, honour-ing their son into the school’s hall of fame.

With just two laps remain-ing in the

race, May turned up the sound and everyone turned their attention to the race as Levins burst from the pack and sprinted ahead of everyone to win the title for Southern Utah University.

“It was amazing,” says Street, recalling how everyone was hooting and roaring as Levins raced to vic-tory. Two days later,

the Levins’ kick domi-nated again as he cap-tured the 5,000-metre event.

As the fans at Vanier celebrated, someone pointed out a misprint on Levins’ plaque; the years he had attended were incorrect. But the mistake was serendipi-tous.

“It worked out great. Now I get to give it to him personally,” says Street, clutching the revised plaque. He later tells the audi-ence, “I coached Cam in Grade 9 basketball…Cam made a great deci-sion!”

Basketball would never be the sport for Levins who now stands 5’10” and weighs about 140. Street remembers the day Levins, then in Grade 10, came to him and asked about the Vanier record for the 12-minute mile.

“I told him it was around eight laps,” says Street. “Cam went out and did nine-and-a-half.”

No one knew Levins would turn out to be

such a gifted runner. He certainly didn’t

look like a future star, May recalls, when he showed up for the Com-ets practice at age 12.

But the one thing May did notice was how hard Levins prac-tised. It’s a trait that has carried Levins to a university scholar-ship (he’s earned a Bachelor of Science in Exercise), the first sub-four-minute mile at Southern Utah, two NCAA titles and, soon, the Summer Olympic Games in London, Eng-land.

“With Cam it’s hard work and it’s always been about personal best (times),” says May. “From the time he was little until this…and he’s a great kid too.”

It’s not just his old coaches that noticed Levins’ work ethic, every person in the Saratoga Beach area of Black Creek knows Levins.

When he’s back home for the summer, he runs, runs and then runs some more – tal-lying 240 kilometres a week.

“Always running,” says neighbour Louise Howes.

Dean Wyatt, the head football coach at Vanier who also lives at Sara-toga Beach, says the neighbours feel a sense of “ownership” as they’ve watched Levins practice and win races over the years.

To help the fam-ily celebrate, Wyatt took up a

neighbourhood collec-tion and bought Can-ada-red jackets for the Levins’ family. White lettering on the back of the jackets spells out “Team Levins” which will stand out quite nicely when the parents, along their eldest boy Jordan and his girlfriend, travel to England to watch Levins race at the Olympics.

“Sorry,” says Wyatt with a laugh as he presents the jackets, “but we got these made before we knew that Cam had signed with Nike.”

TERRY FOX RUN PROCESS

The professional deal is just the latest bonus for Levins who will use the cash and copious Nike gear to continue training.

If he’s overwhelmed by the success and the attention, it doesn’t show as Levins seems to glide through the crowd at the Black Creek Hall. He smiles easily, looks every-

one in the eye when he speaks with them, and makes sure that no one leaves with an unsigned photo.

“This is unbelievably nice,” says his dad Gus, clearly far more over-whelmed than his son. “The thing I see is the ownership people have taken in Cam. It’s neat to see people support him. This is his home, this is his community, and everyone knows

him.”When Levins entered

the hall, he was greeted by the crowd singing O Canada as Canadian flags were hung every-one, including a sign that read “Cam-ada.” By the time he reaches the front of the room to finally address his fans, they’re stand-ing, applauding and chanting, “Cam, Cam, Cam!”

You can almost see a tear welling, but Levins maintains his composure as he gives thanks to the people who always have, and always will, support him.

“When people ask me where I’m from, I always say Black Creek,” says Levin, as he receives a roar of approval. “It’s the best support I could have. I can’t thank you guys enough. Thank-you – I use that word a lot.”■ Levins competes

in Calgary this week-end in the 5,000-metre event at the Cana-dian Olympic quali-fier. He’s expected to win easily. Levins has already qualified for the 10,000-metre race at the Olympics. The Olympic 10,000 final is scheduled for Aug. 4, with the 5,000-metre heats set for Aug. 8.

Cam Levins breaks into a smile as crosses the finish line to win the 10,000-metre race, in a time of 28:07.14,

at the NCAA Track and Field Championships on June 6. Two days later, he was back on the track in Des

Moines to win the 5,000 in a time of 13:40.05.

Campbell River wres-tler Ashley Osachuk has qualified to repre-sent Canada at the Pan American Champion-ships in Venezuela.

Osachuk recently competed in the Cana-dian Nationals Wres-tling tournament in F re d e r i c t o n , N ew Brunswick, which also hosted the Cadet Fila trials tour nament, with the top two wres-tlers in their age and weight class, going on to represent Canada for the Cadet World and Cadet Pan-Am teams.

Osachuk finished second and will be rep-resenting Canada in Maracaibo, Venezuela, July 13-15.

Osachuk had a great year, finishing off the season by winning the gold medal and being named Most Outstand-ing Female Wrestler at the B.C. champi-onships. She goes to Timberline Secondary School.

Qualifying for the

Pan Am Champion-ships is a huge oppor-tunity for Osachuk to be able to wrestle at an international level for the first time. She will compete against the top wrestlers from the U.S., Mexico, Gua-temala, Columbia, El Salvador and Ecuador.

Osachuk is looking for community sup-port to help pay for her trip and training. With the support of Qual-ity Foods, she recently held a hot dog day this past weekend at Mere-

croft Village.She will also be bag-

ging groceries this Fri-day and Saturday at Superstore.

Ashley will also be out collecting any bottles people are able to donate. There is an account set up for any-one wishing to drop off recycling bottles at the Campbell River Bottle Depot, located at 1580F Willow St.

All you have to do is sort the recycling and say that this is for “Ashley for Pan-Am.”
