Germans sell terminal to Arab companyBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - A compa-ny owned by the government of Dubai is set to purchase Fairview Terminal from Deutsche Bank for $580 million.

DP World Ltd. announced Thursday its intention to pur-chase the Prince Rupert opera-tions, with the transaction ex-pected to be complete in the second half of this year.

DP World CEO Mohammed Sharaf said Fairview Terminal has a number of attributes that made the prospect of purchasing the facility attractive to the com-pany.

“Fairview Container Termi-nal offers the fastest access for

vessels travelling between Asia and North America. The termi-nal also offers the highest pro-ductivity rates on the West Coast and an efficient rail link to the hinterland,” said Sharaf, noting further growth at the terminal is top of mind for the company with plans to conduct a feasibil-ity study to grow the terminal to 2.45 million TEUs. “The long-term concession and the ability to build beyond the current Phase 2 of expansion presents a fantastic opportunity for DP World.”

The Fairview Terminal is operated by New Jersey-based Maher Terminals which is itself owned by Deutsche Bank.

And the terminal is on land owned by the Prince Rupert Port Authority, making the crown

agency the landlord for the termi-nal’s owner and opeator.

DP World said some of the benefits to the province and the region include access to DP World’s “state-of-the-art supply chain securities and safety prac-tices” and “world-class produc-tivity enhancing best practices in container terminal development and operation”.

“We are delighted to extend our global footprint with a sec-ond terminal in Canada. The val-ue proposition is compelling and the addition of capacity to our portfolio will contribute to DP World’s continued growth and the delivery of shareholder val-ue,” added DP World chairman Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem.

Prince Rupert Port Authority

manager of corporate communi-cations Michael Gurney said the deal to sell Fairview Terminal can only be seen as positive.

“DP World is one of the world’s top three container termi-nal operators, and its move to ac-quire Fairview Container Termi-nal represents a positive step in the evolution of Prince Rupert’s port operations,” he said.

“While the sale has still to be approved by Investment Can-ada, we can say that DP World’s commitment to Fairview expan-sion — and its reputation for ex-cellence in operations — would sustain the terminal’s growing impact on economic activity re-gionally and on a broader scale.”

The agreement is subject to Canadian regulatory approvals.

SHAUN THOMAS / THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

Operations control of the Fairview container terminal in Prince Rupert could pass to a large Dubai state-owned company called DP World Ltd. should a sales deal announced last week be approved by federal regulators.

MP’s no tanker bill bid defeatedbut he vows to contine the fightBy Cameron OrrTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

KITIMAT - MP Na-than Cullen’s attempt to pass legislation which would ban oil tankers off the north coast failed in a vote in the House of Commons last week.

Cullen’s bill, C-628, had been crafted so as not to impact other ma-rine traffic, for instance diesel shipments to re-mote communities, or on the proposed ship-ments of liquefied natu-ral gas from North Coast ports such as Kitimat.

Other parts of the bill sought to give great-er weight by regulato-ry overseers to projects that add value to prod-ucts — for instance oil refineries — and would also give communities a greater voice in pipeline reviews.

Cullen said that he was disappointed but still resolved to fight oil export projects in B.C.’s northwest.

“Even [representa-tives] from British Co-lumbia didn’t see the value in voting with British Columbia and

against their leader,” he said. “This is after 10 month of work and a 10-year saga dealing with Enbridge Northern Gateway.”

Even so, “There is nothing but resolve and conviction I’m feeling. I know supporters out in the northwest will be disappointed as well but the next place where this goes is to the ballot box in 2015 in the fall, when...Canadians’ go to the polls to choose the next government.”

On the arguments that this bill could be harmful to Canada’s economy, Cullen argues that not passing the bill could harm the econo-my by risking tourism and fisheries, and for the fact there would be no jobs in value-added pro-cesses.

Cullen said he’s thankful for the sup-port he had been giv-en and will think of the next steps in the coming days.

“We’ll collect our-

selves in the next few days, and then decide what the next stage is,” he said. “Again, this is going to be a live issue over the next six months in to the next federal election and beyond. There’s no way the con-versation dies with this bill.”

Cullen had attempt-ed to rally support for his bill, a move that in-cluded touring coastal portions of B.C. He par-ticularly asked Conser-vative MPs to join him.

Northern Savings Credit Union board seeking new CEOBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT -Northern Savings Credit Union is once again searching for a president and chief executive officer fol-lowing the departure of Ken Doleman.

The board of directors made the announcement of Doleman’s depar-ture in mid-March, though no rea-son was given for Doleman no lon-ger being a part of Northern Savings

Credit Union. “We are very, very thank-

ful for the work Ken Doleman has done over the past two-and-a-half years, but life goes and people move on to wherever destiny takes them,” said board chair Nirmal Parmar.

“We have a very experienced, long-serving senior management team and business is proceeding as usual and going very smoothly.”

The board has appointed senior vice-president and chief operations

officer Sharon Stromdahl as inter-im president and CEO. Before the search begins for a new CEO, Par-

mar said the board will be revisiting its strategic direction.

“The financial market is a very competitive one, so we have to do strategic planning to ensure we are serving our customers in the best way we can,” he said, noting it is not related to the departure of Doleman.

“Strategic planning is some-thing we do as a board all the time to improve the service, our products and the training for our staff.”

Doleman was appointed presi-dent and CEO in May 2012, tak-

ing over from then-acting president and CEO Bill Nicholls following the passing of long-time CEO Mike Tarr. Doleman arrived on the North Coast after spending 12 years as the CEO of Swan Valley Credit Union in Swan River, Manitoba.

The change-over comes less than a month before planned mem-bership meetings on April 8 in Mas-set, April 9 in Queen Charlotte, April 13 in Terrace and the Annu-al General Meeting scheduled for April 15 in Prince Rupert.

“Business is proceeding as usual.”

Liquor price changes small so far

Earth Hour a flicker of its former self

Cullen shares concerns on C-51

By Tom FletcherTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

VICTORIA - Some producers are raising prices slightly and others are offering short-term discounts as B.C.’s new liquor price wholesale model took ef-fect Wednesday.

Pre-tax retail price chang-es at B. C. government stores show little change for the the most popular brands of beer, hard liquor and other alcoholic beverages. Government store shoppers will see lower prices on the shelves, because as of April 1, government stores add provincial and federal sales tax at the cash register.

Of the top 10 brands of

spirits, a 750 ml bottle of Crown Royal whiskey re-tails for $23.49, a two-cent in- crease, plus taxes. For the larg-er bottle of Crown Royal, gov-ernment stores are reducing the price by $1.98 for the month of April.

A six-pack of Lonetree ci-der goes up 90 cents to $9.59 as a discount price for March ends. For larger cans of import-ed Strongbow cider, an April sale price is reduced $1.14 to $17.99.

For beer, a dozen Sleeman Honey Brown Lager increases six cents to $20.49.

For private retailers, Save-on-Foods store in Surrey was the first to take advantage of

new regulations allowing sale of B.C. wines directly from grocery shelves. Supermarkets now have the option of includ-ing a liquor store with separate checkout for alcohol purchases.

The government store re-tail price used to be the bench-mark for B.C. sales, with dis-counts off that price to private liquor stores, agency and B.C. wine stores. Now all retailers pay the same wholesale price to the Liquor Distribution Branch, which retains its wholesale mo-nopoly.

The LDB wholesale mark-up is now 124 per cent of the supplier price for hard liquor, 73 per cent for coolers and ci-ders, 89 per cent for wine and

a per-litre tax with ascending rates for small, medium and large breweries.

Justice Minister Suzanne Anton says the system is de-signed to create a level playing field for retailers, while main-taining the government’s rev-enue of $1 billion a year from the wholesale markup.

Many government liquor stores have added refrigerators and Sunday opening hours, to make up for the loss of their wholesale discount compared to what private stores were pay-ing.

Of 196 government liquor stores, 169 have extended their operating hours, and 153 are to be open on Good Friday.

KITIMAT - Kitimat re-duced its electricity use by 1.5 per cent for Earth Hour on March 28.

whole reducing their power use by just .2 per cent, an all-time low since the program began in B.C. in 2008.

Earth Hour is an an-nual global event hosted by the WWF where peo-ple around the world are encouraged to turn off unnecessary lights and electronics for one hour,

says BC Hydro. It start-ed as a one-city initiative in Sydney, Australia in 2007.

The best year of savings was actually 2008 when the prov-ince reduced its power load by two per cent. It dropped to 1.1 per cent in 2009, and further to 1.04 per cent in 2010.

In 2011 it went back up to 1.8 per cent, then to 1.67 in 2012. In 2013 it spiked up again to 1.95 per cent, then followed by just one per cent last year.

Whistler led the way for power reduc-tion this year, dropping their electricity load 7.2 per cent. Invermere fol-

lowed with 6.7 per cent.Prince Rupert fared

well with 2.3 per cent re-duction. Terrace was not included in the list sup-plied by BC Hydro.

KITIMAT - Bill C-51, Cana-da’s proposed anti-terrorism bill, should be worrying to all groups, including ones like Kitimat’s Douglas Channel Watch (DCW), according to MP Nathan Cullen.

DCW wrote an open letter to the Northern Sentinel last week addressed to the Prime Minister, to speak against the proposed bill

which gives sweeping powers to Canada’s intelligence services.

“It should be a concern to a lot of Canadians,” said Cullen. “This is a bad piece of legislation and it’s very hard to find anyone who likes it. There’s no oversight to the spy agency, they can go ahead and tap your phone, look through your e-mails, go through your

mail, without any judge being in-volved at any point.”

He said the government is try-ing to protect Canadians by de-stroying rights.

“For local groups and local citizens, we live in a free democ-racy...and raising your voice and having an opinion is what keeps a democracy healthy.”

Not hearing clearly when many people are talking?Many people find that they are no longer able to understand everything, particularly when in the company of others. Engineered in Switzerland, System Audéo V has been designed specifically to understand in group situations.

The majority of those surveyed stated that when exposed to considerable background noise they are able to hear that something is being spoken, but can no longer discern precisely what is being said. The words seem blurred and indistinct. But why is that? The effect tends to manifest itself in company, or in the restaurant. It is the high-pitched tones perceived at the entrance to the cochlea that are decisive when it comes to hearing things accurately. In the majority of cases these parts of the inner ear are the first to be affected by noise or aging. As the high-pitched tones are no longer perceived well, the auditory center of the brain begins to struggle to decode language. It’s a bit like an image that doesn’t have enough pixels.

New hearing chip developed

Swiss audiologists have developed a new hearing chip that is designed to restore speech comprehension, particularly with hearing loss in the high-frequency range. People can test the new Audéo V system by Phonak simply by calling now to do so. The test phase in particular is designed to clarify how speech comprehension can be improved in various situations and what role a new technology called “Autosense OS” plays. The chip recognizes where the person being spoken to

is located and amplifies only his or her voice, while ambient noise is lowered and the optimum hearing programs are seamlessly adjusted. Thanks to several synchronous microphones, the hearing system can detect sound in all directions and select the direction that speech is coming from within milliseconds. According to Swiss researchers, this significantly augments speech comprehension, especially in conversation. Interested people can register for a no-obligation demonstration of the Audéo V by calling 888.408.7377

Phone scammer strikes againBy Margaret SpeirsTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

TERRACE - Terrace RCMP of-� cers stepped in last week after a person provided her credit card information and remote access to her computer to a telephone scammer claiming to offer ser-vices to remove a virus.

Police said they spoke with

the woman and directed her to a local computer technician to wipe her computer.

Law enforcement of� cers and computer industry of� cials routinely warn people against providing any kind credit card or other personal information to people over the phone.

And they tell people to delete any email that is unfamiliar, es-

pecially email with attachments.Those attachments should not

be opened as they may contain a virus.

The growing use of sophis-ticated scams made possible by the Internet have resulted in more and more people putting them-selves at the risk of either being defrauded or having their identi-ties stolen.

PRINCE RUPERT - Discussions on the revitaliza-tion of a rundown park on McKay Street and Koote-nay Avenue started last week.

The site, owned by the City of Prince Rupert, is located adjacent to BC Housing developments Har-bour View Gardens and Kootenay Place and contains a neglected, overgrown baseball field, a small asphalt pad with a basketball hoop, as well as the Kaien Anti-Poverty Society (KAPS) community garden.

Prince Rupert Mayor Lee Brain facilitated an in-formal conversation on the restoration of the park last week, using Transition Prince Rupert’s Local Food and Garden Series as a forum to gather input.

More than 35 people were in attendance, provid-ing suggestions on potential uses for the property that included adding greenhouses and additional gardens, having a natural play space for children, creating a soccer field or restoring the former baseball field, im-proving the basketball court, adding an amphitheatre or fire pit, and more.

While a committee including representatives from the city, Transition Prince Rupert, KAPS, the Salm-onberry Trading Company Society, the Prince Rupert Ministerial Association, Salvation Army has already formed to oversee the project, the hope is that volun-teers from the area will step up and take over the ini-tiative.

Brain stated a project coordinator would be hired for a short-term duration to lead work, but it would be volunteers carrying it out.

“The intention here is that we want to build a com-munity team ... we want to do this together and for the neighbourhood to be part of the designing and pro-cess. We want the neighbourhood to feel this is their project,” he said.

Because the city doesn’t currently have the capac-ity to maintain the site, it plans to sell the property to a community group for one dollar, which would take over liability and look after it until the city is in a po-sition to do so. With this in mind, the park will be de-signed to be easily maintained.

Coun. Barry Cunningham attended the event and said an important factor in planning for the project is talking to those residing near the park to determine

what they would like to see it used for. “They’re probably not well-represented here,”

said Cunningham, noting there are lots of children liv-ing in the area.

“The whole thing should have a kid theme.”Colleen Hermanson of KAPS, who was also at the

event, said based on the society’s experiences getting the neighbourhood’s children involved shouldn’t be an issue, but said it has been more difficult engaging adults.

The next step of the plans will be speaking to those residing near the property in a door-to-door campaign and undertaking a survey to get feedback.

Then, funding to hire a designer will be secured, with Brain stating the Prince Rupert Port Authority has already expressed interest.

“The port is very interested in helping to fund this particular piece. The city is also looking at an alter-native funding source,” he explained, noting there is money in Prince Rupert Legacy being set aside for city initiatives like this.

Once a draft design is complete, it will be brought forward for feedback.

Brain said the goal is to start the project this sum-mer.

SYLVIA ALDERTON / THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

Residents of Stewart and Hyder were out early in the morning of April 1to protest a decision by the federal government to close the border post between the two communities from midnight until 8 a.m. Federal safety minister Steven Blaney has not been answering questions about the closure.

Border protest heldby Stewart, HyderBy Anna KillenTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

STEWART - Residents of both Stewart and Hy-der were out with signs early in the morning of April 1, protesting over-night closures of the bor-der between their com-munities which began at 12:01 a.m. that day.

“I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, we are one community in two countries,” said Hyder resident Caroline Simpson-Stewart.

“It’s sad. What is be-ing done to the people of Stewart and Hyder as a ‘cost cutting’ measure is wrong on so many lev-els, and thus far none of the customs people are being laid off, none of their hours are being cut, there were three people on duty all night – it reeks of wrong.”

The move to reduce the hours at the border and close the crossing between midnight and 8 a.m. – what some have described as a cost-cutting measure by the Canadian Border Ser-vices Agency (CBSA) – has been met with fierce opposition and criticism from residents, businesses, and politi-cians on both sides of the border. But despite the outcry, the closure went ahead. The gate doesn’t look like much – but Simpson-Stewart said there are cameras focussed on the crossing and she wouldn’t risk going across when it’s shut.

Opponents of the re-duced hours tout ecomo-mic and safety concerns – Hyder relies on Stew-art’s health care centre and the road is the only evacuation route.

CBSA says it has procedures in place, which have been signed off on by local emergen-cy services providers, to mitigate safety concerns and allow emergency ac-cess. That includes a 24-hour phone at the gate residents can use to call to have the gate opened in the event of a medical emergency. CBSA con-firmed a medical emer-gency could be some-thing like a broken arm that needs urgent medi-cal attention. CBSA also said it is consulting with businesses.

Rick Kasum, the operating manager for mining company Ascot

Resources in Stewart, B.C., still hopes a com-mon-sense combination of real safety concerns and economics will prevail – or at least get the CBSA to tweak the hours so they work for his company, the work site of which is only ac-cessible by travelling through Hyder to British Columbia territory on the other side.

“The way they’re opening up and shutting the hours is really going to hurt us,” he said. “The hours of operation aren’t going to work for us, we work 24/7 right? I need the hours changed.”

He also needs to know that his workers can get across the border if one of them gets hurt – and assurances from CBSA that a phone call to nearby Beaver Creek for a code to unlock the gate aren’t enough, he

said, noting that the sat-ellite phones used on site aren’t reliable.

He’s baffled that his company wasn’t con-sulted before the chang-es were announced.

“They walked in and notified the town with 30 days, never talked to any businesses, no peo-ple, and just dropped a bomb on the town basi-cally,” he said.

“If they had taken things into consider-ation, which they ob-viously have not, they might not have even made this decision. But no, they came, they made their decision based on February num-bers which are nothing compared to July num-bers,” said Simpson-Stewart.

Federal minister for public safety Stephen Blaney has not com-mented nor intervened in the closure.

Charles Hays grads hosting variety showBy Jeremy AngusTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - Graduat-ing students from Charles Hays Secondary School will show-case their many talents while also raising money for their up-coming commencement cer-emony during the Grad Variety Show on Friday.

Approximately 45 students will be taking the stage dur-ing the performance, singing, dancing and acting in a number of skits. All of the skits were written by students, including the traditional sketch poking fun at high school teachers and “Freshmen”, a Friends-parody written by Grade 12 student Hannah Komadina.

“The goal is to make people laugh,” said Celina Repole, a graduating student.

After the absence of the Grad Fashion Show last year, students decided to take charge and revitalize the fundraising performance.

“We really wanted to bring it back because we’ve seen in the past how fun it’s been and funny it was to watch,” said Quinn Bas-so, a Grade 12 CHSS student.

“It’s another way where we can hang out again and just have a good time before we leave for school,” added class-mate Tammy Vu.

CHSS instructors Aja Li-hou and Laila Leach have over-seen the show’s organization, but said students took com-mand since planning began in November. Both Leach and Li-hou said they’ve enjoyed work-ing with grads.

“The Grad Variety Show gives students the opportunity to showcase their talents and great sense of humour. We have a lot of artistic and inventive students and this is a great ven-ue for them to showcase their gifts,” said Leach.

“I’ve seen it many times as an adult and I still � nd it hilar-ious and entertaining,” added Lihou.

For this year’s show, stu-dents decided to switch from the long-standing fashion show theme to something that was more open to all.

“I felt like it was better to do a variety show because then there was more of a possibility for [bringing in more grads]; people that don’t necessarily

want to do a fashion show, they can do other things like sing-ing,” explained Repole.

There will still be a fash-ion element to the performance, with students modeling cloth-ing made by their classmate

Justina Vendittelli. The Grad Variety Show

takes place at the Lester Cen-tre on April 10 at 7 p.m. Tickets can be purchased in advance at Cook’s Jewellers or at the door.

New sonar gearto help searchersBy Margaret SpeirsTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

TERRACE - Terrace Search and Rescue is looking for public support to help buy a sonar to help search-ers � nd people lost deep down in lakes and other bodies of water.

In particular, rescuers want to continue to look for Jodi Frocklage, who went missing on Kalum Lake when she went out boating alone December 21, 2014 and didn’t return home.

For a more extensive search, search and rescue needs specialty equipment that can search down to depths of 400 feet, he said. “The appeal to the pub-lic is for people with fundraising experience to help us out,” said Sheppard. Search and rescue can use its own non-pro� t funds to purchase the $44,000 Sea Scan Arc Explorer Sonar, which can search to these depths and deeper.

But the organization also needs a SeaBotix Re-mote Operated Vehicle (ROV) for recovery at these depths and is looking for the public to help with rais-ing the $93,000 cost of the ROV.

Sheppard asks anyone who would like to assist with fundraising or who would like to donate to con-tact him.

Classics help Hope Air …


TERRACE - The Terrace Classics Hockey Club has made a $1,000 contribution to Hope Air operated through Hawkair, a service which assists those in need of medical care. From the left are Dave Scott, Rodney Kuehne, Liz Smaha from Hawkair, Richard Lindstrom and Todd Broughton. The Classics for years have mounted a series of suc-cessful Christmas parties at the arena, providing it with the � nancial means to make donations to worthwhile causes.

Ferries CEO talks fares, ridershipBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - The presi-dent and CEO of BC Ferries said the company is doing everything it can to keep fares low, but ac-knowledges there is more work to do.

During a visit to Prince Ru-pert last week for staff meetings, Mike Corrigan outlined substan-tial savings BC Ferries achieved that helped spur on the recent decision to keep fare increases capped at 1.9 per cent over the next � ve years.

“We will be able to � nd $84 million in savings through Perfor-mance Term 3 ... it’s one of the big reasons we are able to keep the fare increases down to in� ation going into Performance Term 4,” he said, pointing to a 50 per cent reduction in executive compensa-tion since 2009 and a $5 million per year reduction in administra-tion costs since 2008.

“We know that for a lot of people that is not enough, that they would like to see the fares reduced or frozen. But from our perspective when we look at the $3 billion capital program we have on the books to replace the ships and the terminals and keep the safety and liability up, cou-pled with the fact that we’re run-ning one of the most complex ferry systems in the world here in B.C., we think it’s a pretty strong win to be able to deliver in� ation-

ary fare increases over the next four years.”

As well as looking at the re-ductions in administration, Corri-gan said the decision by BC Fer-ries Commissioner Gord Macatee shows the importance of the vari-ous services offered aboard the � eet.

“We have heard things like ‘Why does BC Ferries have a va-cation centre?’ and ‘Why does BC Ferries have food and retail services?’. We have heard on so-cial media and bloggers people asking why we don’t just shut all those down and pass the sav-ings on to the customers,” he said.

“What the commissioner was able to prove is that the exact op-posite would happen. Fares would go up. Our commercial services division is expected to grow to $8.7 million next year ... BC Fer-ries vacations does about $4 mil-lion in revenue and contributes about $1 million to the bottom line to keep fares low. That is in addition to attracting people to the north. Food and retail is another area people have suggested we shut down, but in fact it will con-tribute about $50 million to keep-ing fares down.”

As for the years ahead, Cor-rigan said there will be no cuts to service during the next perfor-mance term. While the collective agreement with the union is ex-piring in October, the CEO said he doesn’t foresee any problems

reaching a new deal. “One of the things that has

happened ... is that we have to go to binding arbitration now. If we can’t agree upon terms we go to a panel of three and get a � nal so-lution. What is off the table now is the labour interruptions of the past, which is a good thing,” he said.

“We have had some prelimi-nary discussions with the union, but the challenge we have is we are in the middle of elections for new union leadership that won’t be � nalized until the end of June. Once that is done we will sit down with the new leaders and talk about the longer term.”

Corrigan’s visit comes as pas-senger traf� c on the Inside Pas-sage is up more than 10 per cent, but the number of people sail-ing to Haida Gwaii is down more than seven per cent compared to the previous year. While he said people adjusting to the sched-ule may help reverse the trend, the biggest issue could be one of perception.

“I personally think we need to change the discussion around northern ferry service. It’s OK for ferry advisory committees and community leaders and BC Fer-ries and government to get in a room and try to hammer out more service, but when we keep talking about it publicly and in the media and on the Internet it becomes a self-ful� lling prophecy, from my perspective,” he said.

Rainmakers put to the test in preseasonBy Kevin Campbell THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - It’s almost a whole new look for the Charles Hays girls’ soccer team for 2015.

Gone are the graduated strikers, mid� elders and rock-solid defence-men who made last year’s team a consistent threat around the region, though, there are some returning veterans who will guide the rather large crop of Grade 9s and 10s on the team.

They include strikers Tanveen Sahdra and Katerina Samaras, who were a pair up front for the Rain-makers against Terrace’s Caledo-nia Secondary (Cal) in a preseason tuneup held last Friday at noon, and goalie Harjyot Sidhu, who suited up in net for Charles Hays.

It was the � rst time the ‘Mak-ers, who have been practicing since February, played as a cohesive team for the year.

“We lost a lot of players last year. Most of them were Grade 12s, so we lost our strong front line of mid� elders, so there’s kind of new dynamics ... I think we have � ve re-turning players, so we’re develop-ing, learning,” said head coach Kyla Ragan.

Ragan wasn’t as fortunate with the number of substitutions as was Cal’s bench boss, however. Caledo-nia could � eld a whole other team with the number of spares (11) that they brought along Highway 16, while Ragan had one sub during the Good Friday showdown.

Mid� elders Emily Cavin and Suttira Johansen provided support on the offensive and defensive side

of the ball and helped the rest of the team with positional play, which was a focus for the younger squad while they � nd their bearings in competitive play.

“They worked hard; they pushed themselves,” said the coach after the match.

“We were missing half our team so we had no subs, so they

tried their best and worked hard. We’ll work on our positions and see what happens for our play day next weekend.”

The Rainmakers fell 6-0 to Cal, but for the � rst half, and the � rst 10 minutes of the second, the ‘Mak-ers matched the Kermodes’ efforts before the Rupert team ran out of steam, while Caledonia � elded sub-

stitutions the rest of the way.After some early pressure by

Cal, the Kermodes went up 1-0 when miscommunication between Charles Hays’ defenceman and goalie led to a chance for Terrace and they buried it in the 23rd min-ute.

That would be how the � rst half ended, but sustained pressure from

Cal led to an outburst of chances for the visiting side 15 minutes into the second half.

A Kermodes’ corner kick con-nected to a forward 16 yards out and the striker slid it smoothly along the ground it for Terrace for the 2-0 lead.

A great � urry of saves by Sid-hu wasn’t enough to stop a fourth consecutive shot on one play in close, as a right-� eld ball-in found a Kermode inside the box. She was stopped by Sidhu three times before she buried a fourth opportunity for the 3-0 advantage three minutes af-ter Cal’s second marker.

Three more tallies late in the match gave Terrace the preseason victory and sweeper Medalana Jardim got the Rainmakers out of trouble a few times as well.

It was a good measuring stick for Ragan to see where her new players’ strong points were and which positions and situations they thrived in.

“We have another two strikers who will also be playing up front, so Tanveen’s strong in mid� eld as well, so we can play her back there. [Sahdra and Samaras] talk to each other. They’ve played well with each other for the last two years, so they’re used to [playing forward] by now,” said the coach.

This Saturday, the ‘Makers host a play day when Cal and Kitimat’s Mount Elizabeth Secondary School come to town. So far, the schedule is set up with Charles Hays and Cale-donia hooking up again at 10 a.m., Kitimat playing Terrace at 1 p.m. and Rupert � nishing the day with a match against Kitimat at 3 p.m.

KEVIN CAMPBELL / THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

Harjyot Sidhu makes a diving stop against the Caledonia Kermodes last Friday afternoon. The Ker-modes won 6-0.

Round ‘em up…


TERRACE - A 13-year tradition, a number of Terrace youth soccer players learned foundational skills with coach Nick Kollias over spring break at the Caledonia Sec-ondary School gym – and helped raise money for scholarships for graduates of Caledonia and Centennial Christian School. Over the years over $25,000 has been given away. “Every year it goes more and more,” said Kollias, in describing the success of the camp.
