Council calls on CullenCameron Orr
Kitimat Council is calling for a meeting with a Conservative MP from the Prince George area, as well as the local MP Nathan Cullen, to talk about the proposed oil re� nery by David Black, and about the Northern Gateway Pipelines pro-posal.
The motion from Mario Feldhoff asks Coun-cil to contact Bob Zimmer, who represents the Prince George-Peace River riding, and is the Chair of the B.C./Yukon caucus, as well as Skeena-Bulkley Valley NDP representative Na-than Cullen, to discuss Kitimat’s support of the proposed re� nery, and council’s opposition to the Northern Gateway diluted bitumen pipeline proposal.
“I think he [Cullen] should be more support-ive of the Kitimat Clean value-added re� nery and associated bene� ts. Among them the 3,000 direct jobs to his riding. We need to impress upon him the bene� ts associated with the Kitimat Clean re-� nery proposal,” said Feldhoff.
Feldhoff noted that Cullen has been vocal about the Joint Review Panel for the Northern Gateway project but has been very quiet about the re� nery.
Meanwhile Cullen just days before council’s meeting, met with David Black in Ottawa to dis-cuss his proposal.
Cullen acknowledges the potential for 3,000 direct jobs tied to the re� nery but he remains mindful of the challenges Black still has to face to achieve his goals.
“I’ve said to [Black] privately what I’ve said publicly which is it’s very good to have a con-versation about value-added when it comes to what’s happening with Canadian oil and bitumen out of the oil sands,” said Cullen. “At present it remains a project in theory as opposed to one that has shovels in the ground or even at the stage of application.”
Cullen also said the issue of a pipeline in to B.C. is one that he continues to have concerns for.
“It’s a similar proposal to Kinder Morgan or Enbridge up until the point of when it gets near the coast, then it changes with the idea of a re-� nery and upgrader. That concerned me before and it concerns me now, how would you keep all those 1,100 rivers and streams safe from a blow-out?”
Cullen does say he respect’s Black’s “pas-sion and willingness to raise the conversation,” and said he’d welcome a meeting with Kitimat Council to talk about this.
“I think he knows he has some work, cer-tainly, to do before we get to the place of whether this is real or not and government has to take a look at it.”
The survivors lap at the Kitimat Relay for Life makes its way around the track as the event formally gets underway on May 31. More photos, and the total raised so far, on page 6.
Scientists stand against GatewayTom Fletcher
The federal review panel for the En-bridge Northern Gateway proposal down-played the risks of a heavy oil pipeline and tanker terminal at Kitimat, and its endorsement should be rejected, 300 sci-entists have told Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
The federal cabinet is expected to release its decision on the project this month, after a review panel report in De-cember recommended it is in the public interest.
A letter from two University of B.C. scientists and one from Simon Fraser Uni-versity, endorsed by academics and gradu-ate students from around the world, was released this week. It says the panel’s re-port took “a broad view of the economic bene� ts, but an asymmetrically narrow view of the environmental risks and costs.”
The bene� ts come to Alberta oil sands producers from an expected higher price for their crude in Asia. But the environ-mental risks assessed by the panel are limited to transportation by pipeline and
tanker, and omit the risks and emission ef-fects from production and later consump-tion of the oil, the letter states.
Northern Gateway project leader Ja-net Holder said the joint review panel (JRP) weighed evidence from top experts in the � eld.
“By actively seeking to undermine the work of these experts outside of the JRP process, the signatories of this letter are denying the experts an opportunity to de-fend their work,” Holder said.
She also said in a statement that “There remains considerable regulatory oversight ahead in many aspects of the project to ensure the conditions are met, and that it is being constructed and operat-ed responsibly and in an environmentally safe manner.”
The Harper government has signaled in recent weeks it is preparing to green-
light the project. On May 14, Natural Resources Minister Greg Rickford and Transport Minister Lisa Raitt announced a new rule for federally regulated pipelines, assigning “absolute liability” for costs and damages of $1 billion even when their operation is not at fault. This is on top of unlimited liability when the operator is at fault or negligent.
On May 27, Rickford announced a new major projects management of� ce for Western Canada, intended to increase ab-original employment and business oppor-tunities related to pipelines, tankers and safety systems to protect them.
The JRP report cited 209 conditions, including a protection plan for whales and other marine mammals and continued work on heavy oil cleanup.
Northern Gateway of� cials say their marine spill prevention and response ca-pabilities would be more than three times required by existing law. Pipeline steel would be 20 per cent thicker than re-quired, with the pipelines monitored and pump stations staffed around the clock.
“The signatories of this letter are denying the experts an opportunity
to defend their work.”

Unlicenced driver bumps into motorist at Haisla BlvdMay 28Two vehicles col-
lided at Kingfisher and Haisla Boulevard. One vehicle had rear-ended the other while it was stopped at a stop sign. A 56-year-old male was found to be driv-ing without a valid li-cence and was charged under the Motor Ve-hicle Act.
An intoxicated
man was reported passed out behind the Mountain View Alli-ance Church. Police found the man unable to care for himself and
the man was held in police cells until sober.
May 29A wedding ring
was reported missing from the Sam Lindsay Aquatic Centre.
May 30A person reported
that the rear window of their car was smashed out on Banyay Street. Nothing was missing from the vehicle. Po-
lice say it’s possible an errant rock from a nearby lawnmower could have broken the window.
May 31A youth who
hadn’t checked in led to a missing person report filed by the per-son’s parent. The youth had been grounded but left. The youth was later spotted walking
in the neighbourhood by her family.
June 1A man with co-
caine was spotted while at a dance party at the Royal Canadian Legion. The 22-year-old Kitimat resident was arrested.
On a call of an intoxicated person, police attended to the City Centre Mall
parking lot and found a 16-year-old vomit-ing and unable to care for himself. The male was taken home to his mother.
A dirt bike re-covered by police
earlier in the day was returned to its owner after the owner re-ported it stolen from his home. The dirt bike was found abandoned at the Kildala Elemen-tary School.

Kitimat, Terrace tied for court delaysCameron Orr
Kitimat and Terrace are tied, but probably not in the way they’d like.
Delays for files to reach court are equal between the two communities, according to a Time to Trial report, up-
dated on March 31.For adult trials scheduled
for two or more days, Kiti-mat and Terrace are tied with a nine month delay to reach court.
Thankfully, at least, they are not the worst. In Surrey
and Fort St. John their actual wait is 10 months.
Meanwhile the total num-ber of judges in the province is dropping, the report ex-plains.
In 2006 there were 135 full time judges. As of March
31, 2014, there were 106.The Time to Trial report
is a continued follow up to a Justice Delayed report re-leased in 2010, released by the Provincial Court of B.C. The report promised regular updates to the public.

Nearly 100 Terrace students walked out of their classrooms last week in protest of the ongoing labour dispute between the province and teach-ers’ union.
Students from Skeena Middle School and Cale-donia Secondary School walked out at 9 a.m. last Wednesday morn-ing in concert with students across B.C. The walk-out, which fell on the only day that week teachers in the province were not scheduled to participate in ro-tating strikes, was largely organized and spread on so-cial media.
Its aim is to call attention to the impact the ongoing dispute between the BC Teachers’ Fed-eration and the pro-vincial bargaining arm, the BC Public School Employers’ Association, is hav-ing on students.
The Sentinel is unaware of any similar action in Kitimat having tak-en place but there was talk of it prior to in the commu-nity.

Chevron working on FN agreementsCameron Orr
Chevron Canada says they still need to build the relationship with the Moricetown First Na-tions band in order to move forward on their Pa-cific Trail Pipeline.
That pipeline will feed natural gas to Chevron and Apache Canada’s proposed Kitimat LNG fa-cility which will liquefy the product for shipment overseas.
There is already an agreement with 15 First Nations, including the Haisla, under the Pacific Trails Pipeline Limited Partnership, which is a $200 million dollar agreement, signed into effect last July.
Chevron representatives were in Kitimat last week with a presentation to Kitimat Council as well as a community open house on Tuesday.
It was a general community update.
Senior External Affairs Advisor Marc Doug-las said their work so far is still in the landfill and permitting stage. Kitimat LNG has purchased the former Eurocan Pulp and Paper mill site.
They have a small work camp on the prop-erty already, currently housing approximately 300 people.
Douglas said by year’s end they expect the camp to be housing just over 600. Asked for the next steps before a final investment decision, Douglas said they need to complete the Front End Engineering and Design (FEED) study, they need contracts with potential customers and they need fiscal certainty, which includes a tax regime set-tled from the provincial government.
Gillian Robinson Riddell, external communi-cations advisor, elaborated for the Sentinel during the open house those next steps.
“We want to know exactly how much the proj-ect is going to cost, what the logistics of putting it together, what the design will be, and how much it will cost,” she said, adding on the marketing side, “Chevron has a worldwide global marketing team and they’re mainly based in Singapore,”
Hillcrest gets dev permit
Multicultural society plans out their year
Council has approved a de-velopment permit for the Hill-crest Apartments, for 1611 to 1711 Haisla Boulevard.
The complex has already had apartment blocks on the property renovated and the de-velopment permit now allows the construction of a new work-shop and manager apartment.
“The primary reason for the workshop is to accommodate equipment they use to maintain the property,” said Director of Community Planning and De-velopment Gwen Sewell.
The development permit also reduces the required rear setback for the workshop by three metres, and reduces the
parking stalls on the property by 14.
The reduction in parking stalls, to 76, will allow more turning space for a fire truck, snow storage, and the relocation of fire hydrants on the property.
The permit will also be con-ditional on installing bicycle parking facilities at a minimum of 14 spaces, relocating fire hy-drants and one BBQ structure to address Fire Department con-cerns, the workshop must match the renovated apartment build-ing exteriors, among some other conditions.
The exterior renovations to the buildings on the property are ongoing as per an August 2012
development permit.The issues the Fire Depart-
ment referred to is the fact exist-ing fire hydrants are at the rear of the property, adjacent to a public walkway.
Moving them to be adjacent to the parking lot will improve fire response times, District of Kitimat staff say in a report to council.
The Advisory Planning Commission had reviewed the application before council saw it and requested some of the conditions that made it to the final recommendation, which included placing ground floor windows on the north side of the workshop.
The Kitimat Multictural Society elect-ed their new executive at their May 14 an-nual general meeting.
Raymond Raj is the society’s presi-dent, with Juliet Marcial as vice president.
The secretary and treasurer role has gone to Louise Avery.
There are four directors for the society, those being John Berger, Jaswant Dhillon, Socorro Gutierrez and Anneli Jaakkola.
The election comes ahead of the flag raising ceremony at the Chamber of Com-merce’s Heritage Park on June 28 at 11 a.m.
They’ve already set March 7, 2015 for the next potluck as well. The society will have their next regular meeting on June 23.
Canada Post cuts subject of council discussionA letter from Shei-
la McIsaac of the Local President of CUPW on the future of Canada Post spurred a short discussion at Kitimat Council. The letter makes the case that Canada Post should look at installing bank-
ing and financial ser-vices in order to remain more competitive as it looks to cut services.
Council merely resolved to receive the letter for information but Rob Goffinet hoped there could be more.
“Canada Post has a
profit each year that ac-crues to the people of Canada. I’d say could we consider not just re-ceiving a file but look-ing at a real motion?”
But Feldhoff said it is a real motion and said he wasn’t ready to say some Post changes
are necessarily all bad.“Canada Post is
struggling with in-creased revenues as people use e-mail more and more,” he said.
“I don’t know if the answer to moving forward is to put in banking facilities.”
4 Northern Sentinel, Wednesday, June 11, 2014
A joke and its meaning is a very personal thing. A few years ago, while touring a couple of high-ranking Japanese Alcan customers around the scenic points of interest in Kitimat, I was stopped for a few moments at the inevitable twice-a-year Kitimat River bridge steel-deck welding exercise.
Jokingly, I apologized to my pas-sengers about getting caught up in a Kitimat traf� c jam. Both were well-versed English speakers and they spontaneously burst into great brays of laughter, � nally explaining they lived in Tokyo and until you’d driven in To-kyo you couldn’t really understand the meaning of the words, “a traf� c jam.”
A week or two ago, I explained I felt almost overwhelmed by big-city traf� c in Vancouver when I had a hos-pital appointment at Vancouver Gen-eral. I opted to drive down, taking a few days away as a post-winter treat. I’ve driven in Montreal, Los Angeles, Toronto, London, and across Canada twice.
Prior to last month, the last time I was repelled by crazy traf� c volume was when I turned around and found a rapid route out of downtown Seattle.
Today I read a new study has given the top traf� c gridlock title to Vancou-ver – with Toronto, Ottawa and Mon-
treal close behind. A GPS company carried out the study and quoted “Van-couver has a congestion percentage of 35; that means that it takes 35 per cent longer to get from Point A to B in peak traf� c times than it does during non-congested periods. Drivers in Toronto don’t have it much better. The average commuter there deals with 83 hours of traf� c delays every year, and a con-gestion percentage of 27.” I love these numbers – makes me wonder what the numbers are for Tokyo, or worse Mumbai, India.
Have you seen any of these videos of endless streams of three-and-four-way traf� c ducking and dodging past one another, apparently even without traf� c lights?
Clearly, all big cities are getting worse and worse as more cars hit the road and speed “limits” work as mini-mums. If you enjoy driving, it’s kind of fun to do it in the north – because
the traf� c is so light.I remember not too many years
ago, driving the ring road around Lon-don’s major Heathrow Airport in a very un-nerving rain downpour – with no one apparently slowing below 110 km/h to accommodate the horrible weather.
I survived another Toronto-Mon-treal Highway 401 white-knuckler about 12 years ago, where I was being passed at 150 kmh on a regular basis. I swore that would be my last time on the 401.
I have turned off my planned route a few other times – for different rea-sons. I drove from Phoenix through the desert to San Diego, California and truly enjoyed the Highway 5 coastal drive north, heading for Los Angeles. But about 75 miles south of the L.A. sprawl, the brown haze of pollution over the city turned me eastward into the farmland seeking the highway to Las Vegas for a couple of days before taking the high road south back to Phoenix.
Another time I truly wished I’d changed direction was while driving through two national forests in north-ern Minnesota heading for Sault St. Marie, Ont.

One more time down this road
SolidarityCompassion has poured in to Moncton from all
corners of the country following the devastating loss of three of their police of� cers.
It’s an event that has taken place a massive dis-tance from us — we on the Paci� c Ocean, they’re close to the Atlantic — but as bittersweet as it is, tragedy has a way of unifying.
The shooter has since been caught and will even-tually answer for his crimes, but the damage is, of course, done.
Moncton itself is not a large city, effectively on par with a city like Prince George.
I’ve never been to the city myself, but like many others surely were, I was curious to know about it following last week’s news.
I was struck with the similarities to Kitimat. It’s right by the ocean, as we are, but not open ocean. Monctonians would have to take a short drive to the coast, then hop over Prince Edward Island to reach the wide expanse.
It’s situated on a river as well, just like us. Ours the Kitimat River, theirs the Petitcodiac River.
Kitimat also, sadly, is not immune to violence towards RCMP members.
In 1998 — before my time in Kitimat — Cst. Laurie White was shot in the leg through a doorway as she and her partner attempted to serve a search warrant at a man’s home.
As a result she had to have part of her leg am-putated.
Her ordeal is documented in an article on Van-couver Coastal Health’s website, but happily focuses far more on her recovery and return to work than it does on the injury itself.
The fact is, trouble like what has happened in Moncton can happen anywhere.
I don’t say that in a fear-mongering sense, but rather to emphasize why what happened there is im-portant here.
Canada is a large country, but all of us within it are a community. The RCMP particularly is as vis-ible here as it is on the Atlantic.
If some in our community are hurt, we feel it over great distances.
The reaction to the shootings in New Brunswick, from the public to politicians, is of course a sincere reaction to senselessness.
There are families in Kitimat that face the same risk that became real out east.
For any person from or in New Brunswick who may read this, Kitimat, as with the rest of the coun-try, is thinking of you.
What happened there could have happened any-where, and we know if it did you would have been at their back too, because we’re Canadians, and we’re family.

Refinery or no, leave rivers bitumen free
Even with job action, finals will be marked
Dear Sir,It is interesting to read
two recent letters to the editor in the local papers from Greg Stringham of the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers and David Black of Kitimat Clean in which they duke it out over which is favour-able for the north coast.
Mr. Stringham pro-motes diluted bitumen-car-rying pipelines and tankers while Mr. Black promotes a diluted bitumen-carrying pipeline and tankers car-rying products refined at a refinery near Kitimat. Nei-ther alternative is a healthy choice for the B.C. north coast.
Mr. Stringham claims that, “…diluted bitumen meets all the same speci-fications and behaves the same as other crude oils…” In making these claims, I’m guessing Mr. Stringham is referring to Alberta In-novates’ (a mouthpiece for the Alberta oil industry) comparison of eleven ‘con-ventional’ crudes and four dilbits in their presentation in Washington, D.C. of July 23-24, 2012. On page 13 of that presentation the 11 ‘conventional’ crudes rang-ing from 0.4-3.4 per cent sulphur are said to overlap those of the four dilbits which range from 2.5-4.6 per cent sulphur.
It would be quite a stretch to consider any of the 11 ‘conventional’ crudes on their list as oils from conventional sources.
Typically, oils from conventional sources don’t tend to be as locked up by sand, tar and rock and are generally much lower in sulphur and much easier to extract than either the transitional or “unconven-tional” crude oils that come from the Alberta tar sands.
The North American benchmark crudes; Brent (0.4 per cent sulphur) and
West Texas Intermediate (0.2 per cent sulphur) have about one-tenth the sul-phur levels of dilbits from Alberta. When you further consider hydrogen sulphide (H2S), a poisonous gas at relatively low concentra-tions, you’ll find Cold Lake dilbit at 300 ppm (parts per million) and Western Cana-da Select dilbit at 400 ppm.
Compare that to West Texas Intermediate at less than 10 ppm H2S (Energy-Wire news, Dec. 10, 2012). You’d have to conclude that if they arrived in time to be effective at clean-up, first responders to a spill of dilbit would have a few more serious health con-
cerns to content with than a spill of conventional crude oil. Dilbit comes very close to the H2S range of 500-1000 ppm which may cause respiratory paralysis, collapse, and death (MEG Energy material safety data sheet for dilbit).
So, Mr. Stringham, when it comes to human health effects, these oils do not behave the same as oth-er crude oils when spilled.
Mr. Black concludes that dilbit will sink in the presence of sediment and plant and animal matter. This would be the case whether the dilbit spill were to happen in a rain swollen river or at sea.
Pipelines are renowned for breaching during high rainfall events and resultant landslides. Anyone who’s ever seen the Bulkley, Skeena, Copper or Kitimat River in north western B.C. during a heavy sediment load during spring run-off or heavy autumn rains wouldn’t give a dilbit spill a hope of cleanup without a thorough dredging of these precious salmon spawning watercourses.
So Mr. Stringham and Mr. Black, please peddle your ideas elsewhere and leave B.C.’s waters bitu-men-free.
Sincerely,Dave Shannon
Tom FletcherEven if B.C. teachers walk out before
they are locked out for the final days of the school year, final exams will be delivered and marked for graduating students, Edu-cation Minister Peter Fassbender prom-ised last Thursday.
Facing a 10 per cent pay cut for refus-ing some of their regular duties and pre-paring for a third week of rotating strikes around the province, members of the B.C. Teachers’ Federation were to vote June 9-10 on whether to resort to a full strike before the school year ends.
Fassbender said the logistics of deliv-ering and marking tests in a strike have not yet been worked out, but he commit-ted the government to make sure they are completed.
BCTF president Jim Iker said last Wednesday the union executive decided to hold a new strike vote before the Labour Relations Board ruled that the employer can impose the pay cut. If union members authorize a full walkout, it would mean more field trips will be cancelled and re-port cards may not be completed in full, Iker said.
The LRB essential services order specifies supervision outside classroom hours if management staff are not avail-able, and any emergencies as determined by school districts, but does not refer to exams.
The LRB has legislated authority to define as essential services “those fa-cilities, productions and services that the board considers necessary or essential to
prevent immediate and serious disruption to the provision of educational programs.”
Fassbender said the BCTF’s latest re-duction to its wage proposal isn’t nearly enough to bring it in line with other settle-ments with provincial employees.
The latest BCTF wage proposal is a total increase of 9.75 per cent over four years, plus cost-of-living adjustments in each year depending on inflation.
The BCTF has estimated that with in-flation, the total increase would be 12.75 per cent.
The B.C. Public School Employers’ Association, representing the province’s 60 school districts, has proposed a 7.5 per cent wage increase over six years, and re-cently added a $1,200 signing bonus for an agreement by the end of the school year.
Continued from page 4I made the choice
because I’d driven to Winnipeg on the Trans Canada and wanted to see the other side. You know what they say about the grass on the other side. It was greener but man, these forests I have to say, I found a bit depressing.
Another one I drove in winter was a road they wrote a song about.
I wish I’d heard the song before I start-ed out through “the Hainesville Woods” in northern Maine.
I heard the song much later.
It was called “There’s a tombstone every mile...” and all these tombstones were dedicated to logging and potato truck driv-ers heading to and
from Boston. After driving it
northwards, I have few doubts that there was a lot of truth attached to that song.
Mark you, some northern B.C. roads I drove during 20 mi-nor hockey seasons came pretty close that “stretch of road up
north in Maine, that’s never, ever seen a smile...”
That could have been a song about our trip to an invitational bantam tournament in Prince George in blow-ing snow in 1993, the year our Bantam Li-ons won the Provincial championship.

Pipeline link plannedCameron Orr
TransCanada says that they’ll be build-ing a pipeline link be-tween Dawson Creek and Summit Lake, to connect to the Paci� c Trail Pipeline that will serve the Kitimat LNG project.
The proposed pipe-line is called the Mer-rick Mainline Pipeline Project, and will move natural gas that will cost an estimated $1.9 billion.
Tr a n s C a n a d a ’s President Russ Girling said the pipeline means four natural gas pipe-line projects in devel-opment, worth a total of $12.6 billion.
TransCanada says it is already doing � eld studies, engineering and design work, in-cluding routing.
Community con-sultations for the area have also begun.
“The initial work for the project is pro-ceeding well, and we anticipate � ling an ap-plication with the Na-tional Energy Board in the fourth quarter of 2014 for approvals to build and operate the project,” Girling said. “Subject to the necessary approvals, we expect the Merrick Mainline to begin ser-vice in the � rst quarter of 2020.”
Product is said to ramp up between 2020 and 2022, to about 1.9 billion cubic feet of natural gas a day.
The Merrick pipe-line will be operated by TransCanada’s whol-ly-owned subidiary NOVA Gas Transmis-sion Ltd.

The flag at the Kitimat RCMP detachment was at half mast last Thursday, June 5, in the wake of the killing of three RCMP officers in Moncton, NB, and the injuring of two others.
Supper Club dishes it outAt its core, Kiti-
mat’s Community Sup-per Club believes that eating is a right, not a privilege.
And so it began that a plucky group of Kitimatians now serve suppers at the Kitimat Baptist Church once a week on Monday, 5 to 7 p.m..
And the response to their work has been overwhelming, the group says.
The group is head-ed by President Sherry Brady, with Laurette Combs Howard as vice president, Rob Brady as treasurer, Michelle Popp as secretary and Sandra Hunter as Chair.
“With the recent growth in population and economic changes the need has been more than apparent,” the club said in an e-mail to the Sentinel. “We know of families that have left everything behind in hopes of being hired on here at the Kitimat Modernization Proj-ect and have to wait for employment. We know that the people on a fixed income who struggle to pay their bills each month need us. We aren’t here to just serve the needs we see. We are also reach-ing out to the hidden needs.”
The group says their aim is to make sure everyone’s basic food needs are met.
But it’s not a char-ity merely seeking to feed low income and at-risk people, but peo-
ple of any stature and income.
“We are here to serve the young, old, rich or poor. We will not turn anyone away at our door.”
The inspiration for the group came from Sherry Brady, who found herself fre-quently sharing surplus food with people who needed it.
“I was making a surplus of food at home. I found myself bringing my leftovers to people that I knew needed it. I found my-self eventually making more at dinner time because I knew more people, and then more. I needed a way to reach everyone that I knew about and those that I didn’t know about. I’m a mother, I’m a feeder. I can’t stand the sound of a growling tummy,” she said.
People in the group come from a diverse background, from social work to corrections, to busi-ness management and restaurant experience.
But what’s really keeping the group go-ing is not what they bring to the table but what the community at large does.
“We’ve been going at this head on. We are starting this from the ground up. We have nothing but the gener-osity of the community funding us right now. We hope for the best and prepare for the worst.”
What they really
need are just monthly donations, and people to come out and eat on Mondays.
They currently make enough for 100 people each night they’re open.
Until this month the group has been in a trial mode and they’ll be reviewing how it’s been going this month to see what changes they might need to im-plement.
The support, though, has been re-markable.
“Many people and businesses came
to us to see how they could help, or to offer us items, money and food. We are in awe that Food Share was so willing to help us out, and we continue to reach to other orga-nizations. There is a lot to do and we have not been able to make it to everyone, or arrange meetings yet. We really do appreciate every-one’s patience with us because we are starting from scratch.”
The group heavily emphasizes the open aspect of their dinners and said its healthy to
have the cross-section of people attend.
“What if some-one comes who is a social recluse and this is the only interaction they get? What if an employer is attending and someone comes that recently lost their job? What if an addict is coming and they happen to be inspired by someone who is recovered, single par-ents, grieving families. These are all people circumstances that are kept quiet and unseen, which is why we will not turn anyone away.”
