This region’s dedicated long-serving peace officers and its citizen heroes were recognized Thursday at an RCMP ceremony in Campbell River.

Deputy Commissioner Craig Callens, the Commanding Offi-cer of “E” Division, recognized the service and bravery of 38 RCMP officers, auxiliary con-stables and citizens who received awards ranging from the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal to Cer-tificates of Appreciation and the prestigious Commendation for Bravery.

Bravery awards went to a life-saving Campbell River trio,

Const. Ryan Pullin, Mitch Flana-gan and William Wasyliw who were involved in the successful ocean rescue of three boaters in February 2010.

Const. Alicia Beverage said: “Const. Pullen responded to a 911 call regarding several people whose boat had capsized off Wil-low Point. He discovered that three men without life jackets were approximately 200 metres offshore calling for help as they struggled to stay afloat.

Pullen, with the help of William

Wasyliw, rowed out to (the) res-cue ... Mr. Flanagan saw what was unfolding and brought his own boat to the rescue.”

Beverage said the actions of the three represented the highest traditions of the RCMP and the highest standards of a Canadian citizen.

they would have felt better about receiving the recognition had

the teenager survived. “I don’t think we did enough to deserve an award, but it was important to be here

today and we are appre-ciative of the honour,” Pap said.

Thirteen officers and auxiliary members

received the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal including Campbell River Staff Sergeant Troy Beauregard.

this year’s budget, and then the more expensive areas for next year’s budget.”

But city staff said the project would be costly, although it did not include a figure in its report to council.

“The current financial plan does not contain funding for improve-ments along either Willis Road or Petersen in 2012,” said Drew Hadfield, the city’s transportation manager. “Continuous safe pedes-trian and cycling routes along the Willis and Petersen Road corridors are impractical without signifi-cant investment. Both roadways contain bottlenecks where simple or inexpensive options do not exist (to widen the walkway).”

There are also ditches which would need to be replaced with a piped storm water system before they could be filled, leveled and used for a pedestrian and cycling path.

Coun. Claire Moglove said she could not support a project with so many unknowns.

“We don’t know how much it will cost,” she said. “It might be 100,000 it might be 500,000, it might be a million, it might be two million, it might be three million – I have no idea. I can’t possibly support a

motion to get started on something I have no idea whatsoever it might cost.”

But Kerr said it didn’t have to be the “Cadillac model” and the city could go ahead with improve-ments on Willis and Petersen using a cheaper method.

“They could be serviced with blue chip crushed rock in the short-term and paved as finances improve, we need some creative solutions,” he said.

Coun. Mary Storry stepped in and suggested the issue be put off until council’s Strategic Planning sessions, scheduled for this Thurs-day to Friday.

“This certainly appears to be an item that’s very important to Councillor Ron Kerr and to mem-bers of the community,” Storry said. “What I’d like to suggest is we defer this item to the Strategic Planning session and Councillor Kerr could bring it forward at that time.”

Items that council identifies as a priority will drive the budget.

In the end council voted to defer Petersen and Willis Road improve-ments to the Strategic Planning sessions. Ron Neufeld, the city’s general manager of operations, said city staff would report back to council with a cost estimate.

Laichwiltach Family Life Society was

named in honour of the Laichwiltach ter-ritory where the orga-nization is located.

“We named the soci-ety after the people of this land, with thanks for allowing those who are visitors to live on their traditional lands,” says Audrey Wilson, LFLS execu-tive director.

Laichwiltach Family Life Society strives to make services accessible, adaptable, culturally-appropri-ate, and respectful for Aboriginal commu-nity members living on and off reserve. A team of over 30 skilled staff – many of them Aboriginal – provide these services. Their programs and ser-vices cover the entire life cycle and include baby groups, parent-tot, preschool, parent-ing programs, youth outreach and support, counselling and addic-tion recovery, employ-ment skills training, an elders’ activity group, research projects, referrals, supervised visitation,

and community-wide events.

The society prides itself on collaborat-ing with many part-ners on northern Vancouver Island. LFLS currently has partnerships with Kwakiutl District Council Health Office, K’omoks First Nation, and Mamalilikulla Qwe’ Qwa’ Sot’em Band for addictions funding; Ann Elmore Transition House and Campbell River Fam-ily Services on a Stop-ping the Violence ini-tiative that also serves Gold River; Campbell River Parks & Rec-reation for summer recreational activities for children in grades 3-6 and a Youth to Youth program that is open to the com-munity at large; the BC Success by Six pro-gram for coordinating services for young children and holding a children’s health fair and other commu-nity gatherings; and the BC Ministry for Children and Family Development for an Aboriginal Child and Youth Mental Health program.

Throughout all of these programs, Laichwiltach Family Life Society strives to return to the source of their cultural tra-ditions, doing what Aboriginal people have done since time immemorial – center-ing families, respect-

ing elders, and engag-ing in talking circles.

“We are enriched by the many First Nations and Métis cultures that commu-nity members bring to the programs and that come alive for children and youth as a source of pride

and strength,” Wilson says.

Laichwiltach Family Life Society in Camp-bell River, was created 20 years ago to provide respectful, culturally-based programs for First Nations and Métis families living in urban and on-

reserve communities on northern Van-couver Island. Many people describe the non-profit society as a lifeline.

The society started with family violence prevention groups and individual counsel-ling, but its programs

have steadily grown in scope, scale, and geographic reach. They now serve any-one of Aboriginal ancestry, with or with-out Indian or Métis status, living on or off-reserves, as well as non-Aboriginal partners living with an Aboriginal per-son. The client base includes many Aborig-inal people who have moved to the region from other parts of Canada, and many children who move from the west coast of Vancouver Island to spend the winter months with family in Campbell River.

Laichwiltach fills persisting gaps in services and cul-tural safety in the mainstream service system. It promotes cultural learning and positive identity by providing culturally based, community-driven programming.

The Laichwiltach story begins in 1991, when four First Nations women on northern Vancou-ver Island broke the silence around

domestic violence. Audrey Wilson of We Wai Kai First Nation (Cape Mudge), Pauline Janyst of Da’naxd’xw First Nation (Harble-down Island), Barb Mitchell of K’omoks First Nation (Comox), and Lorna Quatell of Wei Wai Kum First Nation (Campbell River) wanted to provide a safe place where Aboriginal women who were experiencing domes-tic violence could get help and support. The need for such a nurturing place was desperate in an area where pervasive rac-

ism created huge bar-riers to services for First Nations people.

For Janyst, the soci-ety’s founding admin-istrator and program coordinator, establish-ing the Laichwiltach Family Life Program was a dream come true. Janyst real-ized that she really wanted to dedicate her time and energy to her own people. As a First Nations woman who volunteered as a victim services worker, she was all too familiar with the denial that existed in mainstream commu-nity agencies – denial about the needs of

family members living from crisis to crisis and denial about the lack of culturally-safe counselling and fam-ily intervention ser-vices for First Nations women seeking help.

In 1991, Janyst approached three women from other First Nations in the region who shared her concerns and goals. These four women went on to become the founders of the Laich-wiltach Family Life Society. In those early months, the women met around a kitchen table or at office space loaned to them by the Kwakiutl Territorial

Fisheries Commission (now A-Tlegay). They shared their dreams for supporting fami-lies in their commu-nities and discussed how to make them a reality.

Laichwiltach Family Life Society celebrates 20 years of service on Friday, Oct. 12 at 441- 4th Ave from 11 a.m. - 3 p.m.

A video called “Lifeline” Creating a Community Service Hub for Aboriginal Children and Families documenting the story of the life and breath of the society will be shown at 1 p.m. along with a booklet.

EDITOR: Alistair [email protected]

At least one of the election gag laws has been thrown out.

The B.C. Court of Appeal has decided that an attempt by the provincial government to control free speech in the period before a provincial election isn’t constitutional. This after the government tried several times to restrict how much money third parties can spend in the 60-day window before an election campaign

officially begins. An attempt by Victoria to cut that down to 40 days didn’t work either.

Governments and political parties have interfered

in the election process far too much. Elections are not the property of politicians — they are the property of citizens. They are the one chance that citizens have to determine who is in power, what policies will be brought in and what changes can be worked towards. Yet at the federal and provincial level, election spending has been restricted for years. Not only are individual candidates restricted in their spending, which does at least level the playing field a bit, but individuals, businesses, unions and interest groups have severe restrictions on how much they can spend to send messages to voters.

This is what the province was trying to do in the pre-election period — mainly to cut off messages

from anti-government groups. The BC Liberals were aiming at the B.C. Government Employees Union and the B.C. Teachers Federation, who ran pungent anti-government messages before the 2009 election officially began. Individuals, organizations and businesses should have every right to spend money before and during campaigns.

It’s good that the Court of Appeal has struck down restrictions during the pre-election period. It would be nice if a court would strike down the restrictions which apply during federal and provincial elections as well. The only purpose they serve is to keep the election process dominated by political parties.

A welcome defeat of gag lawOur ViewOur View

We say: Elections belong to the citizens, not the politicians

On Sunday, Sept. 30 while driving through Courtenay I noticed a very large group of our citizens rallying with anit-abortion signs. Living in a free country where you have the right to protest and make your opinions known, I took notice.

Personally I believe, if this group could succeed, it would set Canadian women back 60 years or more. It could take them to a time period when they were forced to have an unwanted child or have to deal with back-yard illegal abortions artisits which used to leave many women with serious infections or even death.

The main thing about the anti-abortion crowd was when I asked a few of them if you stop people from hav-ing abortions because of rape, health issues, incest or poverty how many would they personally be willing to adopt? Two? Three? Ten? All I got by asking this ques-tion was tight lips with no reply. Obviously most did not want these unborn children either. Perhaps they should do a little more thinking. To go through life unloved cannot be very much fun.

Skills training ‘our mission,’ NDP’s Dix declaresMy column on skills training a cou-

ple of weeks ago gave short shrift to the NDP position: tax the banks and hand out grants for women’s studies, sociology and other worthless pur-suits, while skilled jobs go begging.

That’s a pretty crude caricature, so I sat down with NDP leader Adrian Dix in his legislature office last week to get a better sense of his thinking on the subject.

Dix has been devoting a lot of time lately to skills training, in trades par-ticularly. He meets frequently with business people now, and his recent speeches emphasize that every one of them talks about the growing short-age of skilled employees.

Dix credits Premier Christy Clark and jobs minister Pat Bell with

making some good moves recently, announcing equipment upgrades for vocational programs around the province. He says it’s because the NDP have been “pounding away at them for eight months” about freez-ing advanced education spending in their March budget. Dix calls that a crucial mistake and predicts the gov-ernment will reverse it soon.

“So I think, if we’re going to have a mission for four years as a govern-ment, if we’re elected, this is the mission: to start to address the skills shortage,” he told me.

In his speech to the recent munici-pal convention, and again at an NDP provincial council meeting, Dix zeroed in on B.C.’s apprenticeship system. Since the B.C. Liberals took

it from trade unions and set up a Crown corporation called the Indus-try Training Authority in 2004, the completion rate for apprentices has fallen to 37 per cent, he said.

Dix assured me he isn’t proposing to “blow up” the ITA, or hand control back to unions. They will have “a voice,” along with business.

Speaking to the NDP executive, Dix referred to Phil Hochstein, president of the non-union Independent Con-tractors and Businesses’ Associa-tion, as the symbol of trades training decline. Not surprisingly, Hochstein has a different take.

The 37 per cent figure is mislead-ing, Hochstein said, because under the ITA there are currently 32,000 apprentices in the system, twice

as many as when it was union con-trolled. Many drop out in the first year, and Alberta claims a better completion rate because they don’t start counting until the second year. And when Dix touts Alberta’s “man-datory” trade system, Hochstein said he means returning to a system where all work is restricted to jour-neymen or registered apprentices of that trade.

“What it does is impose union juris-diction on the training system of the entire construction industry,” Hoch-stein said. “So multi-skilling, multi-tasking, organizing the work in the most efficient way is blown out of the water, and it’s stuck in the old craft system of training.”

ATV runs amokHere’s a recipe for

arrest: Drink and drive an uninsured ATV on the highway while towing a boat.

On Oct. 4 city RCMP officers responded to a report of a motor vehicle collision at the intersection of Hwy 28 and Willow Road.

“A male had been driving an uninsured ATV on the road while towing a small boat,” RCMP Staff Sergeant Troy Beauregard reports. “The male lost control of the ATV rolling it, as a result the boat trailer broke free crashing into a nearby truck.”

The driver was injured and transported to hospital with a fractured shoulder and hip.

It was determined that the 25-year-old Campbell River man was impaired. Charges are pending drug test results.

A truck’s funeral

At 3 a.m. Oct. 2 RCMP responded to a report of a hit and run after a GMC truck had collided with Sutton’s Funeral Home embedding itself in the building. Beauregard says an RCMP civilian employee came across the crash moments after it occurred and observed a male fleeing. Investigators tracked the driver to a residence where he was arrested. He was charged with multiple offences under the

Motor Vehicle Act including Failing to Remain at Collision Scene.

Sutten’s Funeral Home Manager Amy Gordon says: “There was structural damage. You can see skid marks on the front lawn. For the security of the families we serve, the necessary steps were taken to secure the building until repairs can take place.”

Drunks attack officer

An RCMP officer

responded to a report of a man and two women intoxicated and causing a disturbance and interrupting traffic downtown on Oct. 5.

The male became combative and attempted to strike the officer. The officer took the male to the ground to control him when the two females intervened by assaulting the officer.

“Two civilian witnesses then offered assistance to the officer,” Beauregard says. “The officer was

able to control the male and handcuff him while back up officers arrived. It was determined that the male had attempted to strike the officer with a hammer.”

All three are facing charges of Assaulting a Police Officer and Obstruction. The officer was not injured.

“The RCMP would like to thank the civilian witnesses for coming to the aid of the member during this incident,” the staff sergeant says.

10 impaired drivers

RCMP road checks Friday and Saturday evening netted 10 impaired drivers. Drivers were issued three-day suspensions, 90-day Immediate Roadside Prohibitions and Criminal Code charges. Three were impaired by drugs.

WHO’S PLAYING AT THE QUINNIE?WHO’S PLAYING AT THE QUINNIE?

Page 11: Campbell River Mirror, October 10, 2012

Wildlife stirs many emo-tions in us

from awe, compas-sion and often fear and we should always treat them with great respect.

Each year as fall progressess, many species are preparing to migrate to their winter breed-ing grounds, others remain in our local areas year round and fall is the time for them to prepare their bodies for the hard-ships winter will bring.

Over the last few weeks there have been confirmed sightings of cougars in the Comox Valley and this has resulted in local schools taking extra precautions to keep the students safe.

Cougars are usually elusive, solitary, mys-terious creatures that often get a bad reputa-tion for unprovoked attacks.

Also known as mountain lions and pumas they are Can-ada’s largest wild cat. They have sleek, mus-cular bodies and long

tails which may repre-sent one third of their total body length.

Adult male cougars can weigh between 140 and 200 pounds, the smaller females weigh in between 90 and 120 pounds, the largest of these cats are found in the Interior of B.C.

Cougars need a territory covering 175 square acres for a large male. He will mark his boundaries with a scent from urina-tion and feces.

Females do not need

such a wide area as they tend to stay close to their den.

Habitat for cougars includes open areas with nearby rocky outcrops or brush and treed areas where they can hide and stalk their prey.

Unfortunately, much of their preferred hab-itat is disappearing as areas are developed for commercial or residential use.

In addition, this expansion also pro-vides a dwindling hab-itat for their favorite prey, the black tailed

deer. Proficient tree

climbers, cougars can jump 20 feet from a stationary position and jump down to the ground from a height of 60 feet.

They use the trees for a resting spot with a perfect view of potential prey.

Although their favorite food is deer, they will also snack on rabbits, beaver, rac-coons and occasion-ally sheep or other young farm animals.

Cougars prefer to hunt at dusk and dawn, but they can roam around at any time of day and in any season, two-year-old cougars are more prevalent in spring as they become indepen-dent searching for a place to adopt as their territory.

Cougar tracks are very visible in soft ground.

Like all cats they are equipped with retract-able claws which are not visible in their footprint unlike dogs and bears that leave claw prints.

Cougars are defi-nitely unpredictable and it is not clear what triggers an attack from this ani-

mal. They do seem

attracted to small children whose high pitched voices, small size and erratic move-ments may cause them to think they are prey.

The following are some safety recom-mendations from Environment Canada in order to lessen the chance of attack:

■ Do not let your children walk alone in wooded areas or trails where cougars have been sighted.

■ Supervise your children when playing

outside and inform them how they should react if they encoun-ter the cat.

■ Do not feed deer or raccoons that may attract a cougar in your garden.

■ Keep pets indoors and keep dogs on a leash when out walk-ing.

■ Never approach a cougar.

■ Always provide

the animal with an escape route.

■ Stay calm and talk with a confident voice!

■ Pick up small chil-dren and keep them calm.

■ Do not run, back away slowly, sudden movement may trig-ger an attack.

■ Do not turn your back on the animal, try to appear as big as possible.

■ Carry a stick or throw rocks, people who fight back have survived cougar attacks.

Hopefully, you will not encounter a cou-gar other than from a safe distance, which can be an awesome experience.

This is also the time that bears are prepar-ing to hibernate and are out scouting for an easy meal.

Keep garbage secure and clean up fallen fruit from under trees. Carry sticks and or bell to alert the bears to your presence make as much noise as pos-sible, never turn your back or run away also avoid making eye contact with the animal as this is per-ceived as threatening behaviour. Report all sightings to the local Conservation Service at 1-877-952-7277.

Keegan Taberner’s yacht Themis-tocles is on the hard under repair, but his dream to help young people with diabetes is still under full sail.

The grads at Keegan’s alma mater, Timberline Secondary, presented the 18-year-old diabetic sailing fundraiser with a cheque for more than $2,200 Friday. The cheque from the Timberline Grad Legacy Fund is payable to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation and brings Keegan’s recent fundraising efforts to about $10,000.

Timberline Principal Kevin Harri-son says: “Last year’s grads wanted to do something good for the com-munity.

“The money they raise they donate in part to groups ranging from the SPCA to sending kids to Africa to work and this is an important part of that. It is a very altruistic thing

they do.”This summer Keegan and his

friend Carsen Black, 18, embarked on a 39-day adventure circumnavi-gating Vancouver Island.

Themistocles hit a rock near Sooke and the 1,700 kilometre journey was cut short by two weeks.

Themistocles in under repair at the Ocean Pacific boatyard in Campbell River and will soon be up for sale.

Keegan is studying to take his real estate agent’s exam and wants to write a short novel about his Odys-sey on behalf of diabetes research.

Keegan says: “I will always be involved fundraising for juvenile diabetes and we are still collecting donations.”

He says people can donate by vis-iting his website at keegantaberner.com.

October is Canadian Library Month, when libraries across the country highlight the valuable role they play

in the lives of Canadi-ans. The theme this year is “Libraries Connect” as they connect people, ideas, communities

and information. You can connect with your library at the “Learn about Your Library” event, to be held at the

Campbell River branch of the Vancouver Island Regional Library on Wednesday, Oct. 10 from 2-3:30 p.m. This will be an informal introduc-tion to our website and services.

We’ l l talk about the catalogue, how to request and renew

l ibrary materials, show how to download music and eBooks, and find valuable online resources.

This is a free pro-gram, and there is no need to pre-register.

For more information, call Elizabeth Johnson at 250-287-3655.

It’s autumn at the Campbell River Art Gallery and that means it’s time to start think-ing about the annual Christmas Market.

The Art Gallery is seeking artisans who would like to display their work in the annual Christmas Market, taking place this year from Nov. 8 to Dec. 24.

For six weeks, the Gal-lery’s entire exhibition space is transformed into a gorgeous, glit-tering Christmas shop-ping extravaganza, f e a t u r i n g u n i q u e handmade crafts and art created by local artisans. Everything from pottery to textiles to woodwork, soap and fine jewelry is featured. The pieces sell on a consignment basis and the Christmas Market,

sponsored by Chan, Nowosad Boates, Char-tered Accountants, is a major fundraiser for Gallery exhibitions and programs.

All displays, inven-tory control, sales and promotion are taken

care of by Gallery staff and volunteers in order to provide an uncom-plicated, easy opportu-nity for artisans to sell their work. Artist dem-onstrations, which are an excellent way to pro-mote an artisan’s work,

are also scheduled for those who would like to demonstrate their craft.

Entry into the Mar-ket is juried and entry forms are available at the Gallery, which is open Tuesday to Sat-

urday from 12 p.m. -5 p.m.

The deadline for sub-missions is Oct. 13.

Call 250-287-2261, e-mail [email protected] or visit www.crartgallery.ca for more information.

The derelict boat is gone.

“We decided to get on with it

and move it,” said Mike Gage

of the Campbell River Salmon

Foundation (CRSF).On Dec. 27, a derelict boat being

towed to Cortes Island broke free

and washed ashore in the mouth

of Willow Creek. A subsequent

washing of hands from official

agencies like the Coast Guard,

Fisheries and Oceans Canada

and the City of Campbell River

meant the boat was going to be

left to break apart on the beach

in the mouth of a potential

salmon creek.But on Wednesday, Mike Gage

and the Campbell River Salmon

Foundation secured permis-

sion from Fisheries to go in and

remove the boat with an excava-

tor. “We weren’t going to leave it

there,” Gage said. “It was right

in the estuary.”The CRSF took on the cost of

the operation and will try to

recoup it from their fundraising

efforts.Gage said it would cost under

$2,000 to clean up the boat. The

services of A. Wood Bulldoz-

ing were secured to remove it.

Gage cleared the operation with

Fisheries who said ‘go ahead as

long as it doesn’t do any envi-

ronmental damage.’ The City of

Campbell River then gave CRSF

permission to run a backhoe on

the breakwater beside Ken Forde

Park.

“I think the estuary will look

better without it,” Gage said.

Gage said the presence of the

boat on the beach wasn’t send-

ing the right message about

Campbell River. If this boat was

allowed to be left to fall apart

there, then there’d be boats lit-

tering the beaches up and down

Vancouver Island, Gage said.

The CRSF’s mandate is to help

streamkeeping projects from the

mouth of the Oyster River north

to the estuary of the Salmon

River in Sayward.

The Fisheries and Oceans Can-

ada (DFO) is assigning six new

vessels to monitor fish farming

activity on the West Coast and

five will be stationed in Campbell

River. In Campbell River on Monday

Fisheries Minister Keith Ashfield

said the B.C.-built vessels will all

be dedicated to the BC Aquacul-

ture Regulatory Program.

Three of the vessels – the

Salmon Bay, the Sturgeon Bay

and the Oyster Bay – will conduct

fish health management inspec-

tions, sea lice audits, stream sur-

veys, ocean floor sampling and

fish farm inspections.

The other three vessels – the

MacLeod Bay, the Weaver Bay

and the Maz Bay – will transport

fisheries officers as they perform

routine and surprise site inspec-

tions and enforce aquaculture

regulations.The minister said, “As the

majority of aquaculture opera-

tions are located along the coast

of Vancouver Island and in the

mainland inlets and most are

inaccessible by car, ensuring DFO

staff are able to move freely on

I want permanent insurance but the premiums are high, andI also need to save for my retirement.

Permanent Insurance can be expensive, depending on your age and health when you buy it. However, some permanent insurance products, such as certain whole life contracts, can be designed to pay you back an income in retirement. You pay in, have the insurance coverage during the critical earning years, take out years of income and – the permanent insurance remains in place! This type of retirement savings/fi nancial security strategy is ideal for those who don’t have much RRSP room, or have used it up and still need to save more for the retirement they have planned. Plus, the money grows tax-sheltered unlike most other non-registered investments.

As a breast cancer survivor I support Breast Cancer Awareness month and I know that only a fraction of the donations collected for breast cancer research are used toward its PREVENTION. How can I help myself and others? There is a websitewww.pinkandgreenribbon.com which is a grassroots organization dedicated to education and research on the connection of the environment and women’s health. The National Film Board of Canada released a documentary in 2011 called “Pink Ribbon Inc” based on the book written by Samantha King that is also worth watching. In order to thrive and not just survive, naturopathic physicians follow Dr. Lise Alschuler’s “Five to Thrive” plan by helping patients transform their internal body landscape through fi ve key pathways: immune, infl ammation, hormone, insulin resistance, digestion and detoxifi cation pathways.

I was told to take advantage of “Dollar Cost Averaging” but I don’t know how that might benefi t me.

“Dollar-Cost Averaging” is simply investing equal amounts regularly and periodically over a specifi c time period into a particular investment or portfolio. By doing so, more units are purchased when prices are low and fewer units are purchased when prices are high. The point of this is to lower the total average cost per unit of the investment, giving the investor a lower overall cost for the units purchased over time. Investors who take advantage of this strategy using an automatic purchase option usually fi nd it easier to fund RRSPs (because they don’t have to come up with a big chunk of cash once a year), and often experience less overall volatility in their portfolio if funds being purchased are professionally allocated.

Tips

How can I help my puppy not be scared on Halloween night?

The safest is to keep your puppy - or adult dog - somewhere in your home where he can not escape. In his crate with a lot of appropriate chew toys is best, even cover the crate with a thick blanket to muffl e the fi reworks. Plug in a radio with the music on fairly loud to drown out the noise outside. Keep the door to the room closed. Make sure everyone in the house is aware that they are not to let him out until later in the evening when you’re sure the trick or treaters have stopped. Even then, take him out in your fenced yard on a leash. If someone lets off a fi recracker it’s possible for him to just run wild and scared and even scale a fence in a crazy frenzy. Make sure he’s been outside to potty well before kids start arriving. For an older dog or puppy that’s worried, a fabulous product called a “Thundershirt” will help him feel more secure and help ease the anxiety. If you don’t have one, try fi tting him with a fairly tight fi tting t-shirt and be sure he’s tucked away somewhere cozy. Check to be sure you have a current city license and an engraved tag with your phone numbers on it attached to your dogs’ collar. Many dogs disappear from their homes during Halloween night and this will help bring him home to you safe and sound.

Halloween & the Concerns for your PetsCelebrations of Halloween can be fun for all but pose possible risks for our four legged friends. Pets ingesting our “Trick or treating” loot can be life threatening. Candies, gums, mints, baked goods and chocolate containing the “sugar free” sweetener xylitol are especially poisonous, causing rapid hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and liver failure in dogs and possibly other species (ferrets).Chocolate is toxic to pets. Chocolate contains theobromine, a naturally occurring stimulant found in the cocoa bean, it increases urination and affects the central nervous system as well as the heart muscle. While amounts vary by type of chocolate, it’s the theobromine that is poisonous to dogs.Signs of chocolate toxicity include tremors, nervousness, vomiting, diarrhea, increased heart rate, and in severe cases, hyperthermia, seizures and death. If you suspect that your pet has eaten chocolate, please contact Campbell River Veterinary Hospital or your family Veterinarian for assistance. Remember keep your pets safe for the holiday, and Happy Halloween!

When should I shut down my pond for winter? October is the time to shut down ponds...plants are no longer growing, fi sh have stopped digesting food and it’s getting chilly. Fish should NOT be fed once their water temperature is cooler than 10˚. If fi nishing them off for the season with Laguna Spring & Fall food– enriched with wheat germ, they can be fed until the temperature is 8 degrees.

To shut your pond down, do a large water change, removing all organic debris such as leaves so they don’t rot over the winter. ALWAYS use Laguna Water Prep when replacing water in your pond. Our water has chlorine in it and if you’re on a well, your water will have heavy metals so using Laguna Water Prep makes most water safe for your fi sh immediately. Dose well with Laguna Bio Booster & Laguna Bio Sludge to help boost bacteria & break down of the remaining debris.

Once you’ve completed the water change, turn off the pump and fi lter and remove them. Clean out both and store them in your garage. The pump and fi lter don’t need to be running during the winter, and it’s actually better for your fi sh if you don’t have them running. Save energy, save wear and tear and a better environment for the fi sh. A pond that has been maintained over the active pond season will winter very well. It’s that easy!

What do you do ifsomeone has a nosebleed?A nosebleed may start for no obvious reason or may be caused by blowing the nose, and injury to the nose, or in more serious cases, by an indirect injury such as a fractured skull. To treat a nosebleed that is not caused by a head or neck injury, you want to place the casualty in a sitting position with the head slightly forward. Leaning forward allows the blood to drain from the nose and mouth instead of back into the throat. Tell the casualty to compress the entire fl eshy part below the bridge of the nose fi rmly with the thumb and index fi nger for about 10 minutes or until the bleeding stops. Tell the casualty to breath through their mouth and not to blow their nose for a few hours after the bleeding has stopped. If the bleeding does not stop with this fi rst aid or if it starts again in a short period of time, seek medical help. Do not try to stop a nosebleed resulting from a suspected head or neck injury.

Why is having a clean Air Filter important?

The air fi lter traps dirt particles, which can cause damage to engine cylinders, walls, pistons and piston rings. It also plays a role in keeping contaminants off the airfl ow sensor and sometimes in cleaning the air that enters the crankcase for crankcase ventilation. Your car’s engine can use close to 40,000 litres of air for every 3.5 litres of fuel burned. Driving with a dirty fi lter restricts the air entering the engine and if severe, can impact fuel economy and performance. Be sure to have your air fi lter checked at every oil change and replaced as needed. Come down to Great Canadian Oil Change today and talk to them about the air quality in your car!

What exactly is aFrozen Shoulder? If you haven’t experienced or had a scare of a “frozen shoulder”, many of us know at least one person who has had frozen shoulder in the past. So what exactly is a frozen shoulder and how can we avoid getting one? Frozen shoulder, known medically as adhesive capsulitis, is a soft tissue disorder resulting in pain, stiffness and a gradual but progressive loss of motion in the shoulder joint. It can affect 2-5% of the population, most commonly women between the ages of 40-60. Risk factors include diabetes, cervical disk disease, immobilization, trauma, cardiovascular and pulmonary disease, hyperthyroidism and autoimmune diseases. Recovery from frozen shoulder can take up to 24 months but in many cases can be aided by working with a physiotherapist to create a specialized exercise program. If you think you might be at risk for frozen shoulder the most important thing to do is maintain shoulder movement as much as possible and seek medical attention. Physiotherapists are trained in specifi c shoulder mobility and function and are a great resource! Frozen Shoulder: A clinical review. British Journal of Hospital Medicine,Vol. 70, No. 5, May 2009.

If I have a terminal illness, how can I make sure that my life is not extended by providing C.P.R.?

If you don’t want C.P.R. to be administered on you, then you are required to have the proper documentation which needs to be signed by a Doctor. The paramedics (ambulance employees) are required to perform C.P.R. unless they have a Do Not Resuscitate order. Therefore, after you obtain a D.N.R. order, you should keep it in an easily accessible place such as taped to the fridge. You can also obtain and wear a D.N.R. bracelet, though you would still require an order with a Doctor’s signature. Another option would be to have D.N.R. tattooed across your chest, but you might have trouble fi nding a Doctor to sign that one.

To avoid extensive costs and legal complications, be sure to have your affairs in order. Preparing Wills, Powers of Attorney, and estate planning are some of the services we provide.

What are some of the top reasons to own a Beachcomber Hot Tub?13. Sound Sleep. Sitting in a hot tub raises the body temperature and enhances your ability to fall asleep. Evening soaks promote restful, uninterrupted slumber.14. Relief for Arthritis Aches and Stiffness. Warm, pulsating water increases blood supply to aching joints, which helps to remove infl ammatory particles from the area and relieves pain.15. Buoyant Exercising.Exercising in water is easier on the joints than exercising on land.Many hot tubs are deep enough to stand in, and almost all offer enough room for chair exercises.16. Stretching Out. The warm water in a hot tub decreases muscle tension, which allows greater fl exibility. You can stretch better in the water.17. Post-Op Therapy. Once the wound heals, rehabilitation programs may include hydrotherapy to help patients get back on their feet faster.

You may have just hit the jack pot!

There is a lot of silverware collecting dust in boxes and drawers in almost every home. The thing is to fi nd out if it is Stirling silver or silver plate. Stirling silver is what you are looking for. Normally it is marked Stirling, 925 or it has a hallmark. A single Stirling fork is worth approximately 40 dollars, so you can see how quickly the value can add up. We would be happy to help you determine if it is silver or give you an appraisal. Leave with the knowledge of what you have or cash in hand.

Do I have to Pay You? When a Seller enters into a Listing with a REALTOR® they agree to pay the Listing Brokerage a commission out of the proceeds of the sale. The Listing Brokerage then agrees in the Listing Contract to offer a portion of that commission to a Cooperating Brokerage who assists in obtaining a Buyer. Sometimes however, the commission offered to the Buyers Agent is less than what that Agent expects to receive for his/her services. In that case the Agent may ask the Buyer to make up the difference. This may be agreed to in advance with a Buyers Agency Contract. Often times in order to make up the difference, the Buyer will agree in writing to allow his/her Agent to include in the offer to purchase that the additional commission will form part of the purchase price.

Can I bring some of my favourite geraniums inside to overwinter?Yes! Unlike most annual bedding plants, geraniums are easily propagated by cuttings. Kept on a warm windowsill over winter, or in a tray with a T 5 fl orescent light, your cuttings will quickly develop roots and leaves.How to do it - Select healthy, squat and fat shoots. Remove them from the parent plant by cutting immediately above a bud.

Remove fl ower buds and lower leaves from the bottom half of • each cutting and cut the stem just below a node, where there is a concentration of the plant’s own hormones.Dip the base of each cutting in a small amount of rooting hormone, such • as Power Root, to stimulate root growth.Fill pots with Coco coir or a good potting soil mixed with sand or • vermiculite to aid drainage. Insert 2 or 3 cuttings around the edge of each pot. Water the soil or coco and stand pots in a well-lit position, indoors. Do not cover the pots.After a few weeks, a corky callus will develop over the cut end of the • stem. A good root system will have developed within 6-8 weeks.In March or April, knock each cutting out of the pot and transplant into • individual pots. Keep well-watered and plant out in spring.

Do our Donations stay local?

All of the donations that we receive stay in Campbell River for our Hospital and Yucalta Lodge. Each year, we receive an Approved Equipment list from the Vancouver Island Health Authority (VIHA) and from there we meet with the Campbell River Hospital Site Director and Department Managers who then come to a decision on which equipment is priority for our hospital. We then notify VIHA of our decision and the ordering process begins.

Images Off The WebThe Internet has changed many things in our day to day lives. In the area of Graphic Design, it has had a tremendous effect.Now anyone with a word processing program (i.e. MS Word) or page layout program (MS Publisher, Print Shop, etc.) and a connection to the internet, can hypothetically be a graphic designer if they know what they are doing and have an eye for layout and design.The biggest problem, however, are the images and graphics that people “pull off the web” to incorporate into their documents. Just because it looks good on the screen doesn’t mean it will look good in print. All our monitors, from CRT to LED, have an optimized resolution at 96 DPI. That means that if an image is at 96 DPI, it will look good on the screen and you can see it very well. However, when printing anything from a fi le, most printers , from inkjet to commercial copiers, have a minimum optimized resolution at 300 DPI. This means that if you would like to print a document with an image, the image has to be at least 300 DPI at the size the image is being printed at.So, if you are pulling images from the web, make sure that they are at a high enough resolution so when you print them, your images look good.

The Timberline Football Team was told they couldn’t play football this year – but they simply didn’t listen and they found a way to step onto the field anyway – winning their second game of the season 42 – 6 against Howe Sound last Saturday on the Timberline Field.

Under the autumn after-noon sun, with cowbells and clappers and pump-up music getting the crowd going, the team, supporters, spectators

and media crew were treated to a great passing and run-ning game full of intercep-tions, literally breathtaking tackles, touchdowns, sacks, incredible line heroics and a push down the field again and again.

Leading by example, the veterans at the heart of the team clearly commanded a never get lazy work ethic during the game.

And just as quickly as they proved they deserved to be

on the field, they also proved their character as individual players were quick to praise the effort of the entire team effort for the success of the day.

And the support of the team and the players is offered from beyond the ros-ter.

When Coast Realty became aware of the determination of the young men on the Wolves Football Team to not give up, to not let anyone

tell them they couldn’t play football, to stick together and find a way to play their senior year as the team they have been since pee wee – in Brian Bailey’s memory, at the Home Opener football game at center field last Saturday, Coast presented the Wolves with a $1,000.00 donation to help keep the team together and moving forward.

The next game is on Satur-day, Oct 13 at 1:30 p.m. on the Timberline field.

Try It.” On the Rocks was particularly popu-lar with 152 new people trying the sport.

In addition over $120

was raised for Jump-start through donation jars located at various businesses throughout Campbell River. That is enough funding for

one more child to par-ticipate in sports who could otherwise not afford it.

Want to get active or try a new activity –

give one of these great organizations a call.

About the Power of Sport

Sport has the power to reduce crime, foster character and citizen-ship, introduce new-comers to their com-munities, stimulate the local economy, provide adult mentorship for young people, teach kids important life les-sons and strengthen community connect-edness.

Unfortunately, sport participation is on the decline in our country.

Over the past two decades, sport partici-pation rates in Cana-dian youth aged 15 to 18 dropped from 77 per cent to 59 per cent - and in adults, from 45 per cent to 28 per cent.

Over half of Cana-dian adults are con-sidered inactive, and only seven per cent of children and youth are active enough to meet Canada’s Physical Activity Guidelines.

Canadian moun-tain biking guru Peter

Oprsal will be wheel-ing into Campbell River next week to map local trails for his internationally recog-nized website.

Oprsal, whose “bike-pirate” website gets more than 14,000 hits a month and up to 30,000 visits in the summer months, will be here Oct. 10 to explore and map some of the finest biking trails of B.C. here in the Campbell River region.

Catherine Temple, whose “gocampbell-river” website cel-ebrates our tourism and business poten-tial, has been helping organizing Oprsal’s tour.

“Bike riding tour-ism and adventures are worth hundreds of millions in revenue in B.C. and Campbell River is poised to takes its place on the map as a go to destina-tion,” Temple says. “The ball is seriously running down hill.”

Oprsal says Camp-bell River has “a vast

network of trails” so this year’s visit will be “a taster” to be fol-lowed up by another visit next year to do additional mapping and photography. Oprsal is a resident of Canmore, Alberta who has been mountain biking since he could walk.

He has become one of the country’s most

accomplished riders more comfortable navigating mountain trails on two wheels than on two feet.

Through bikepirate, Oprsal attracts people to the sport by provid-ing mountain bike enthusiasts with use-ful and accurate trail information.

Trail condition updates, locations,

and trailhead infor-mation can be found on the site.

The GSP mapping provides co-ordinates for an entire trail and is available on his site for downloading free.

Temple says James Durrand at Swicked Cycles and Dan Clem-ents at Outdoor Addic-tions will be escorting Oprsal on his GPS

mapping tour. She said the local

cycle club is also involved. “This is the first time they will all be working together

to grow their industry here.”

Durrand said he will start by taking Oprsal through the huge network of trails in

the Snowden Demon-stration Forest. Hav-ing Campbell River’s trails on bike pirate will be “a huge help,” he said.
