A SMALL craft brewery, a � rst for Terrace, is set to open for sampling soon with full-scale sales to start in late fall.
Sherwood Mountain Brewery, owned by Darryl Tucker and Linda Parker, is located in the former Out Spoke’n Bike & Sport location on Hwy16 West and the pair have spent the last while getting the pa-
perwork and supplies in order to begin production.
Tucker, a former marketing di-rector with Hawkair and who was also involved with the local effort to purchase Shames Mountain and convert it into a co-op, said the move offers him a chance to com-bine two loves – beer and promo-tions.
“I really enjoy beer, it was something I could sell and love,
and to learn a new skill and be-come a brewmaster, so to speak, it was like, this all � t,” he said last week.
Tucker’s � rst stop in the brew-ery world was with the Skeena Brewing Company, a local group planning to open a brewpub on one corner of the city-owned former Co-op property. But he then decid-ed on a separate venture, a move that took him to a brewing school
in Berlin, Germany for six months to become a certi� ed brewmaster.
“It was really a good experi-ence,” he said of his experience at the Versuchs- und Lehranstalt für Brauerei in Berlin. “For me to go to school over there, but the other half of it was to live in Berlin for six months.”
He bookended his Berlin trip with stints in Ontario, where his family lives, and worked at the
Lake of Bays Brewing Company, where he began to make contacts in the industry and put his school-ing into practice before returning to Terrace late last year.
Once equipment and tanks are fully installed, Tucker and Parker will produce 80,000 litres of beer in the � rst year of operation plans to expand to 200,000 litres a year.

A FIRST-EVER count of the homeless that took place here last week revealed at least 50 people have no place to live save for under porches, dumpsters, bank entranc-es and the outdoors.
Terrace and District Commu-nity Services Society (TDCSS) worker Casey Eys, who organized the count, said the number was dramatically higher than unof� cial tallies he’s been keeping over the past several years.
“When I � rst started, you could count 15 to 18,” said Eys. “Before there were less transients.”
Eys, another person from TDC-SS, and four Northwest Commu-nity College social work students, spent part of two days � nding and interviewing people, even offering a free pair of socks on one of the rainy days as incentive for people to answer a questionnaire.
The count was part of ongo-ing efforts to determine the city’s housing policy priorities. It cost the city $2,500.
The group combed Ksan So-ciety shelters, the weekday soup kitchen at the All Nations Centre on Sparks and ravines and thickets that wind through the area.
When asked where they had spent the night before, some of those surveyed listed � ophouses which charge a fee and apartments where � ve sleep on the � oor in ad-dition to regular shelters.
Because a signi� cant number of people live in precarious, unpre-dictable situations such as couch
sur� ng or extended stays at rela-tives, de� ning who is homeless for the purpose of the survey was im-portant and counting them an im-
perfect science.“Anyone who doesn’t have con-
trol over their tenure is homeless because they have no legal security
to be there,” said Eys.A breakdown according to age,
gender and ethnicity was not im-mediately available following the
two-day count, which took place April 22-23.

Jewelry outlet robbed
MARGARET SPEIRS AND CONTRIBUTED PHOTOS
CARTERS JEWELLERS, top, was the scene of a smash and grab robbery April 22. At right, Terrace RCMP want to speak with this person of interest.
RCMP investigators continue to search for the person responsible for a daylight smash and grab robbery of Carters Jewellers on Lakelse Ave. April 22.
The incident took place at approximately 3 p.m. that afternoon and police vehicles quickly converged on the scene in the hopes of apprehending the person responsible.
A man entered the store, smashed a glass display case with a tool, grabbed some jewelry that was inside the case and then � ed on foot east on Lakelse Ave. toward the Royal Bank, reported Cpl. Mark Alexander, who is in charge of the Terrace General Investigation Section.
Descriptions indi-cated the man is a First Nations man in his 30s, standing � ve-feet-seven inches tall, with a slim build.
RCMP also released a still image from vid-eo footage taken at the Skeena Mall right be-fore the Carters robbery of a man outside the
Cook’s Jewellers outlet in the mall. He general-ly � ts the description of the Carters suspect and RCMP are calling him a person of interest.
Earlier the same af-ternoon, the Cook’s store at the City Cen-tre Mall in Kitimat was also the scene of a smash and grab.
RCMP of� cers in Terrace and Kitimat are working on the possibil-ity of a connection.
“It’s too much of a coincidence that very similar [events] hap-pened in a very short amount of time for them not to be related,” said Cpl. Chris Manseau of the Kitimat RCMP.

Snowmobiler and Winter Recreation Users Public Safety Notice
Snowmobilers and winter recreationalists (cross country skiers, snow shoers, etc.) should be aware that the Northwest Transmission Line (NTL) is under construction, and the NTL right-of-way remains a construction zone with restricted access. This is required to avoid safety risks associated with such things as unmarked guy lines, construction materials and other potential hazards along the right-of-way, as well as for public and worker safety as construction activities continue.
In particular, over the past year many of the transmission structures for the NTL project have been installed. Most of these structures are supported by currently unmarked guy lines which can be very difficult to see against a snow background.
Please avoid using the right-of-way for your activities. If you are in the area, take extra care when travelling in the vicinity of the transmission structures.
If you have any questions, please contact BC Hydro stakeholder engagement: 1 866 647 3334 or send an email to [email protected]

THORNHILLAdvisory Planning Commission
The Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine is inviting applications to fill vacancies on the Thornhill Advisory Planning Commission (APC).
The Thornhill APC is a nine member volunteer commission, appointed by the Board of the Regional District, to advise the Board on land use planning matters in Thornhill. Appointments are for a two year term.
Interested persons may complete an application form available from the Development Services section of the Regional District website (www.rdks.bc.ca) or from the Regional District office. Alternatively, applicants may submit a letter with a short biography containing name address, occupation, length of residency in Thornhill and Terrace area, a description of their involvement in community organizations and reasons for interest in serving on the Thornhill APC.
Teachers’ strike eliminates recessSTUDENTS IN the Coast Mountains School Dis-trict (CMSD) are starting school later and going without morning recess thanks to the first round of teacher strike action.
The impacts, which began April 23, are the first of what could eventually lead to a full-scale teacher strike action by the BC Teachers’ Federation should its demands for wage increases not be met.
The union has demanded pay hikes estimated at 13.5 per cent over three years, while the govern-ment has offered 6.5 per cent over the first six years of an intended 10-year deal.
Union members voted in March to endorse the three-stage plan, with phase one including refusing communication with school managers, arriving no more than an hour before and leaving an hour after school hours, and refusing supervision of students outside class time. It does not include coaching, re-port card prep or parent teacher meetings.
“This decision has not been taken lightly,” read a release issued April 22 by the CMSD of the deci-sion to start school later. “However without teach-ers to supervise during recess it is the solution that we have experienced to be the safest and least dis-ruptive to student learning.”
Teachers will not be supervising students before school, at recess, or after school, with those du-ties performed by non-union district staff, school principals and vice-principals, and some teachers in more rural areas where there is no other district staff available.
School board chair Art Erasmus said the deci-sion to start later and cancel morning recess came from lessons learned during the 2012 teacher job action. CMSD is one of nearly 10 districts around the province to take this step.
District staff have to supervise students in the morning and after school, and it’s not feasible to send staff from the central office to cover recess, Erasmus said.
“I hope it’s over really soon,” he said, noting that he couldn’t gauge how far the job action would go.
“School districts are collateral damage,” he said. “We’re the employer... we can only stand by (and wait for the BCTF and the province to negotiate).”
Due to the job action, some school and grade changes planned for this fall will be delayed due to teachers no longer meeting with administration.
These include the Hazelton-Kitwanga grade reconfiguration committee, the school calendar long-term planning committee, and the Kitimat City High relocation transition team. Job action has delayed the planned move of Kitimat City High to Mount Elizabeth Secondary School until Septem-ber 2015.
“We need teachers to plan that,” he said, of the various committees.
Terrace and District Teachers Union president Cathy Lambright said she wants to see a negotiated settlement, in part so that teachers can take part in planning meetings for the next school year.
“We really do want a negotiated settlement,” she said, adding that job action is tough on teachers, parents and students – but sometimes unavoidable in the current climate that has seen the education system continuously underfunded by the province. “It’s always concerning for our members.”
“Right now [teachers are] concerned about their kids,” she said, noting the union office has been busy providing as much clarity as possible to its members about what teachers can and cannot do during job action.
Phase two of the BCTF plan is rotating one-day walkouts in districts around the province. Phase three, a full-scale strike, would require a second vote by members to authorize.
Meanwhile, the union representing education support workers released a statement April 24 ex-pressing its concern over the cancelling or moving of recess breaks and what that would mean for sup-port staff workers hours. “CUPE education support members are concerned that some school districts are cancelling or moving recess breaks, despite an essential services order requiring excluded staff (such as managers and administrators) to cover su-pervisory duties,” reads the release.
notes the labour relations board ruled that man-agers and excluded staff work “to the best extent possible to replace teachers for these activities.”

CAROL HAASTJES has lived on Crescent St. in Thornhill for nearly 30 years, and in the Terrace area for over 50 years, and she says she often hears the sounds of people enjoying recreational activities in the wooded area near her house – and she doesn’t want that to change.
She’s just one of a num-ber of people in her neigh-bourhood – on person alone collected at least four pages worth of signatures, she said – who have signed a petition asking the provincial gov-
ernment to deny the crown land sale application to M & M Ventures, the compa-ny which wishes to build a residential subdivision in the area Haastjes and her neigh-bours have used as a park for years.
Plans filed by M & M Ventures, a local company, envision as many as 124 res-idential lots being placed on the property.
“Leave the little park land that we have. Once it’s gone, it’s gone,” she said. “There’s got to be other places they can do this. There’s got to be somewhere out of town.”
The Skeena Industrial
Development Park, owned by the City of Terrace and located south of the North-west Regional Airport, is a more suitable space for in-creased development, she said.
Haastjes and her neigh-bours are worried that the proposed development will turn out to be a work camp, even though its application states it will be developed into suburban/residential use.
“With all the develop-ment currently underway in the Terrace area how do we know that this area won’t be developed into a massive
work camp,” reads the peti-tion, submitted to the Min-istry of Forests, Lands, and Natural Resources April 15 as part of the public com-menting process. “Home-owners and families in the area do not want this land turned into a massive com-plex for migrant workers.”
But even if it were de-veloped residentially, as the application states, Haastjes says she and her neighbours would still say no.
“Not there,” she said, not-ing that the wooded area is extensively used by horse-back riders, people on ATVs, hikers, and neighbourhood
children. “Our kids are grown up now, but lots of people’s aren’t... Would you want that in your backyard?”
And she stresses that the neighbourhood isn’t op-posed to all development, noting that they are used to helicopters and are fine with the Bear Creek Contracting site and other established industries in the neighbour-hood, but that this develop-ment will change the land-scape of the neighbourhood too much.
She said she’s feeling confident the petition will make a difference and that she and her neighbours are
planning on putting up a fight.
“I’ve lived here for 55 years and I plan on staying,” she said. “We want some-thing to be left of our town when all of this goes away – and it will go away.”
M & M Ventures has filed a similar application with the provincial government to purchase undeveloped crown land behind Ecole Mountainview on the bench in Terrace for residential de-velopment.
Public comment on this proposed purchase is also being sought by the provin-cial government.

SUBDIVISIONS BOTH large and small are starting to emerge from wooden lands in Terrace and area as developers bank on an increase in residential construction. This one, on the corner of Bailey and Jolliffe on the bench, is one of several in the general area of Ecole Mountain-view school and McConnell Ave.
By JOSH MASSEY
With spring b e i n g the start of what
promises to be a busy residential construc-tion season on available building lots in the area, attention is now turning to developing more lots for sale in anticipation of a continuing demand for housing.
In Terrace, the ma-jority of rezonings to allow subdivisions are taking place on the bench.
This past winter, af-ter being earlier turned down by city council, Emil Wirtl was more successful the second time in gaining a zoning amendment for prop-erty at 5034 McConnell Ave. on the bench.
The amendment means he can divide a 10-acre parcel into 30 residential construction lots.
At 4934 Twedle Ave., just south of Up-lands Elementary, also on the bench, owner Colleen Froese is look-ing for approval to re-zone property from ag-ricultural AR1 to R2.
She recently submit-ted a plan for five new residential lots to be built alongside a large existing home, said city director of development services David Block.
One city zoning ini-tiative currently under-way is to end the rural residential zone called RR1 which is the zon-ing for large rural-type parcels.
That’s to prevent sprawl as population pressures increase.
The move is called for in the city’s official community plan.
Meanwhile, a small-er, four-lot development just recently went onto the market on the corner of Bailey and Jolliffe on the bench.
That’s close by Ecole Mountainview and in the general area of the last large-scale develop-ment of residential lots on the bench.
Construction there mainly halted in the ear-ly part of the last decade when the regional forest industry collapsed.
Empty lots there are now being filled up as part of the increase in housing construction this year.
Behind Ecole Moun-tainview, developer Mike Scott, who owns M & M Ventures, wants to buy a section of pro-vincial Crown land for a 60-lot subdivision to take up 15 acres.
It’s now a forested and unofficial recre-ation area.
“The interest in fur-ther residential subdivi-sion on parcels such as the Crown land reflects anticipation in the de-velopment market for increasing demand and coming population growth expectations,” said Block.
“If/when [liquefied natural gas] final invest-ment decisions start be-ing made we will see this interest in devel-opment increase even more,” he added.
On North Sparks, also on the bench, Stan Kinkead was successful in receiving a rezoning
of property for a multi-family townhouse de-velopment of up to nine units.
Controversial in na-ture because of its per-ceived impact on the area, the development
would, however, need no further rezoning un-less the plan is to de-velop the townhouse as a strata title project.
In Thornhill, Scott’s M & M Ventures is in-volved in another appli-cation for the purchase of provincial Crown land.
This could involve as many as 124 lots on as much as 100 acres be-low Crescent St. lead-ing toward Hwy16 and bordered by Paquette on one end and by Sharples on the other.
As with the bench application in Terrace, the proposals are now being evaluated by the province.
This Thornhill de-velopment prospect, al-though large, is not the only nor it is the largest that could take place in that community.
A company which already owns lands in Thormhill wants to ex-pand an existing subdi-vision into upward of 200 new lots.
A company called Thornheights West Estates Ltd. currently owns the land located off of Walnut and Haw-thorne.
Company spokes-man Harry Eichhorst said the plan has been in the works for some time and the money is in place, that the company is has begun the appli-cation process.
Two other subdivi-sion proposals are cur-rently being processed for Thornhill, accord-ing to planner Ted Pel-legrino of the Kitimat-
Stikine regional district.“There’s one on the
Thornhill bench for a three-lot subdivision. There’s another one on Old Lakelse lake road near the pub,” he said.
The one on Old Lakelse Lake Road is where a trucking com-pany was located just south from the Thorn-hill Pub on at 3556 Old Lakelse Lake Road.
Pellegrino said the new owner wishes to subdivide the property into seven lots.
No diceThe Good Friday
demolition of the old Morhart Trucking building on Hwy16 right beside Tim Hor-tons sparked a new round of rumours about what would be located there next.
For years the word has been Wendy’s had been looking at the spot.
Perhaps it was be-cause Tim Hortons and Wendy’s were once cor-porately connected, an arrangement that ended in the latter part of the last decade, or perhaps someone from Wendy’s had been in town.
But, no. The next oc-cupant of that location, now a company located in Vancouver, won’t be a Wendy’s.
“[The] new owners are still considering op-tions for a commercial use,” read an email last week from city hall.
“Sorry – doesn’t look like the long run-ning Wendy’s rumor will come to fruition any time soon!”

ESTABLISHED APRIL 27, 1988
WITH spring slowly asserting itself, the hardy core of winter cyclists is now being joined by those who have taken their bikes out of garages and storage sheds in anticipation of fresh air and rejuvenated lungs.
Whether it’s a way to combat the ever-increasing price of fuel, to lose a few pounds, or just for the expe-rience of seeing what’s going on in the area at a more leisurely pace than by sitting in a vehicle, the number of people commuting to work by bi-cycle and using two wheels for rec-reation is growing.
Save for the hills leading to the bench or the hill leading to upper Thornhill, the area is relatively � at, lending itself to cycling.
Credit goes to the City of Terrace for doing its best to encourage cy-cling thanks to marking out bicycle lanes when roads are rebuilt or wid-ened and by painting a bicycle sym-bol on those lanes.
City and Nechako Northcoast sweepers have been out cleaning cycling lanes. With fresh paint to highlight lines and symbols, more cycling will be encouraged.
In Thornhill, a Kitimat-Stikine re-gional district project is underway to encourage cycling as well as other forms of outdoor recreation.
For those more adventurous, the Terrace Off Road Cycling Associa-tion together with like-minded citi-zens has been building and connect-ing a cycling trail network.
There’s plenty of options to enjoy life on two wheels.

EDITORIALA6 www.terracestandard.com OPINION Wednesday, April 30, 2014 Terrace Standard
Even the briefest house guest visit sends me into a tizzy of obsessive
worry. What preparations are essential? Which are op-tions? Which can I leave un-done if I run short of time?
I’ve always envied host-esses so con� dent when an unexpected visitor knocks they swing the front door wide, and sing out, “Come on in. Set a spell. Join us for dinner.”
That’s unlikely to ever happen in my house.
Before I utter a word of invitation my brain reviews a checklist like a CNN crawl – are my windows and � oors clean enough?
Is the sink emptied of dirty dishes? Fridge stocked to � ll an extra plate? Do I want to subject this person to my cooking?
The most enjoyable visit I ever hosted resulted when my brother Bob phoned one forenoon as I was gathering my car keys and grocery list for a trip to town.
He called to ask if I had on hand an ample supply of a skin cleanser we both use. If I did, he wouldn’t pack his quart supply. I said I did, so he didn’t.
His call was my � rst tipoff he and my sister would arrive in 12 hours. As he packed, their ride to the Edmonton airport idled at his front door.
Our sister, feeling the urge to get out of Dodge as she does with seasonal regu-larity, had purchased two Air Canada tickets and persuad-ed Bob to come along on a four-day visit.
Before hurrying off af-ter his call I augmented my list – pork chops, spare ribs, cheddar cheese, butter tarts and other pastries, and extra fruit.
Once home from town and groceries put away, I dove into essential tasks: make up
two beds, clear clutter from the spare room, scrub bath-room, launder mats, vacuum rugs and plan several meals.
Allowed more time I would have baked cook-ies and a pie, dusted the top of the piano, and washed at least kitchen windows. But there was no time to do more than the minimum.
I comforted myself, “We grew up in the same home. They’ve both visited me be-fore, they know how I live and what to expect. More important I make them wel-come and feed them well. That’s all I expect when I visit them.”
Our four-day visit was the most relaxed and enjoy-able of my life. With just the three of us, our conversa-tions weren’t interrupted or hijacked by others trying to get in on the tale-telling, a common drawback of family gatherings or reunions which can resemble speed dating.
We reminisced about childhood, reviving memo-ries of incidents I had for-gotten or not been present to share, owing to our six and seven year age differences.
We compared our view-points during family events such as the evening Kenny set
his bed on � re. I was washing supper dishes and pounded upstairs carrying the dishpan of water, Bob raced to the barn through mud wearing new shoes to alert Mom and Dad who were milking cows, Louise recalls Dad � inging smouldering bedclothes off the balcony.
All three of us appreciate humour and let no chance for a fresh quip or pallid pun pass by. Several times we laughed to the level of uncontrollable tears as we exaggerated and heaped one nonsense upon another.
Mid afternoon we took the dogs for a walk. That gave us fresh topics to talk about.
And at any hour that wouldn’t disturb neighbours, we “jammed” taking turns on piano or accordion, running through waltzes, jigs, reels or other � ddle tunes we learned from Dad’s whistling.
Both of them regularly devote time playing at nurs-ing or seniors’ homes.
In the end, additional house cleaning could not have improved our visit even a tiny bit.

Nuclear energy revival clouds LNG prospects
Terrace Standard Wednesday, April 30, 2014 VIEWPOINTS www.terracestandard.com A7
In a previous column I closed out with mention of the el-ephant in the room where the certainty for a northwest
liquefied natural gas (LNG) in-dustry is concerned.
To explain, on February 9 resi-dents of Tokyo went to the polls to elect their governor.
The favourite going into the campaign was former national health minister Yoichi Masuzoe who had the support of the ruling national coalition.
Two of his opponents were lawyer Kenji Utsunomiya and former prime minister Morihiro Hosokawa both of whom were adamantly opposed to nuclear energy.
Hosokawa in particular tried to turn the election into a referen-dum on restarting Japan’s nuclear power plants which had been shut down in the wake of the Fukushi-ma disaster of March 2011.
While that may have seemed like a good strategy given opinion polls last year showed between
50 and 60 per cent of respondents opposed to the return of nuclear power, it failed spectacularly – Masuzoe won in a landslide re-ceiving more votes than the other two combined.
So what went wrong? It turned out that whatever misgivings the voters might have had regarding nukes, their main concern was the economy which has taken a ham-mering from the cost of import-ing high priced liquefied natural gas to replace electricity formerly generated by the nuclear plants.
Japan’s prime minister Shinzo Abe will doubtless see this re-sult as a vindication of his plans to reactivate the nation’s nuclear plants, provided of course they can achieve the stringent safety measures now required for any such restarts.
If Japan fires up all 48 of its nukes, its need for LNG will fall by about 50 million tonnes per year – that’s equivalent to the out-put of five plants the size of the proposed two-train Kitimat LNG
project.Meanwhile China is another
country taking the nuclear route.That country actually has 17
reactors in operation at the mo-ment but Sun Qin, chairman of China National Nuclear Corp, told Reuters last month that it may build 20 or more nuclear reactors over the next six years
with six of those expected to get the government green light by the end of next year.
If all goes according to plan, China will triple its nuclear ca-pacity by 2020 and triple it again over the following 10 years.
What impact that will have on China’s demand for LNG and what price it is prepared to pay for it is unclear since nuclear power is largely seen as a way to replace coal-burning power plants, one of the main causes of its appalling air pollution.
Then there is FLNG – as in floating LNG plants.
With project costs for land-based plants going sky high in Australia, Shell opted instead to use FLNG to develop its Prelude property, located 125 miles off the coast.
While Shell is coy about the cost of its FLNG platform, ana-lysts estimate the behemoth – the size of an aircraft carrier – will run the company about $12 bil-lion, less than a quarter of the
cost of Chevron’s on-shore Gor-gon plant.
But Prelude will only produce 3.6 million tonnes of LNG per annum versus Gorgon’s 15.6 mil-lion tonnes. While on its face the cost per tonne seems to favour Gorgon, the expectation is that the operating costs of an FLNG plant will be cheaper than those on land. Prelude will be the first FLNG project ever so Shell is heading into unchartered waters, so to speak.
You will doubtless have no-ticed there are quite a few “ifs” in the preceding paragraphs.
But those are the kinds of sce-narios that proponents of the vari-ous north coast LNG plants have to wrestle with when it comes to a decision on whether to spend bil-lions of dollars on their projects.
In the end, it looks like the only certainty in LNG at this mo-ment is uncertainty.
Retired Kitimat Northern Sentinel editor Malcolm Baxter now lives in Terrace, B.C.
Cont’d Page A9
Dear Sir:For years I’ve never really understood the wis-
dom of Thomas Gray’s famous line, “Where igno-rance is bliss, ‘tis folly to be wise.” I had always thought that if a train was barreling down on me, for example, I’d really like to know about it, no matter how blissful I might be in my moment of ignorance.
But recently, certain local events and a number of letters to the editor have led me to reconsider my position. I can now see that I might be much hap-pier being ignorant, and perhaps even being selfish in that wonderfully Ayn Randian sort of way.
For example, ignorance might make me content to argue that my six-figure salary earned in the oil patch justified my not caring about the horrendous impact I was having on the environment.
Also, the “virtue” of selfishness might help me to ignore the dreadful legacy I was leaving future generations to deal with. If I was stupid, I might repeat the hackneyed argument that people who use oil products shouldn’t criticize those who produce oil. And if I was really stupid, I might even suggest that those same critics should trust Janet Holder’s smiley face assurances that we can trust Enbridge to look after our rivers and coastline, because, after all, she’s just like us – except for the $3 million a year she earns shilling for her masters, of course - but hey, we’ve all got to make a living, right?
You know, I really think I’m beginning to get the hang of this thing! How about I ignore the fact that our ex-MLA, ex-would-be-MLA, and our present mayor all have shilled, are shilling or will be shil-ling for energy companies?
I can just feel the bliss now as I accept my may-or’s assurance that, rather than do the honourable thing and resign, he will use his personal judgment to step aside when he perceives there to be a con-flict of interest in representing the interests of those of us who voted for him and in representing the companies that are paying him to represent them.
Dear Sir:I have lived in the
Skeena River area most of my life, and have en-joyed the splendor of its beauty and bounty.
I was not born into this world to chase af-ter dreams of money or wealth but for the sim-ple things, and the right to enjoy it all.
This is my dream, peace here, please. My peace is slowly being infringed on by the sell-ers and buyers of oil. This land is not for sale, for it is priceless, for it is ours. Not yours to sell to the highest bidder, not yours to rape and pillage for profit, it is not yours to pollute.
We are being threat-ened by the terrorism of the oil gluttons – a smear on the planet that will never go away until the oil runs out.
The prime minister has pushed the dream further, the premier has put a price on it, the people have said no to the dream in its entirety, but still, the project is pushed forward.
It’s nothing more
than a cheap garage sale of a natural resource.
When we need diesel fuel, where do we get it, where else – the US. When they have a natu-ral disaster, and threaten our supply, we then get a price increase imme-diately.
Do we get the price decreased after the sup-ply is restored? No, once a price changes, that becomes the price now. We have the oil re-source in Canada, why not use it and say no to the US price increases. Hey we can even sell our fuel to them – bo-nus!
We sell our natural resources at an alarm-ing rate. The world is a happy place when we give it away so us Ca-nadians keep the world economy moving.
We should be turn-ing these resources into jobs and not putting them on a display shelf for sale. What is next? Oh, yes. Water.
We are the buyers of products made by oth-ers. Look in every area we shop, you will see
products manufactured by others, and we rush to buy it. Do we even have a table to sell our products to the world? Nope, not at all.
This country is too short sighted in how
we should sell and what we should be selling. Create jobs, create Ca-nadian jobs. Economic sense is Canada first, and never second choice to the world.
We want the gold
medal at the podium and not accept being the podium.
The only conclusion is to end the pipe dream. If China needs oil, buy it somewhere else.

THORNHILL PRIMARY School is keeping the fundraising for Hailey Pettit going with a week-long event that comes to a cutting and sticky end this week. Hailey Pettit, a student at the school, was diagnosed with Burkitt’s Leukemia in January and has been taking rounds of chemotherapy at BC Children’s Hospital since then.
To help out with travel expenses and living ex-penses for her family to come visit her – her mom is staying down south with her – friends and students, some of whom don’t even know her, have been
raising money. Thornhill Primary students starting collecting monetary donations last week and will count it all up this Thursday.
Grade 3 student Mikayla Beaudette, 8, will have 14 inches of her hair cut off to donate to Angel Hair for Kids. The student who raises the most money gets to take the scissors or shaver to her head this Friday at 2 p.m. in the school gym.
And if at least $600 is raised, every student who brought a donation will get to help duct tape teach-er Ryan Chapman to the gym wall.

“We’ll start selling here in our little region, but our business plan is that we need to sell beer beyond our borders and into all of B.C., perhaps the States, Al-berta,” Tucker said. “We’ve got room to grow.”
The 2,600 square foot brew-ery space will include a tasting room so that people can try dif-ferent brews and a food cart fea-turing local sausages, cheeses and accompaniments.
The brewery business plan calls for beer-to-go to be served using growlers, reusable jugs that customers bring to the brew-
ery to be � lled straight from the tap, and eventually Sherwood Mountain brew will be served at restaurants and be available in li-quor stores.
A provincial liquor licence has been applied for with resi-dents and businesses within a 0.8 kilometre radius being in-vited to make comments on the proposal.
In the meantime, plans for the Skeena Brewing Company’s (SBC) brewpub on the corner of Greig and Emerson are still in the works, with the company gathering investment and study-
ing development at the site, said SBC secretary William Spat, not-ing the process has been affected by the environmental clean-up work needed on a portion of the former Co-op lands where there is a proposed hotel development.
“Adjacent development obvi-ously impacts the complexion of our building,” he said.
Their site is clean and SBC is still con� dent in the investment, despite the delays, he said.
“Exciting times with all the breweries and distilleries push-ing up like spring � owers all over the province,” he added.

Homeless count soarsThe questionnaire contained
a section that differentiates be-tween those who had a place to stay the night before and those who were shelterless.
The survey is then done on those who answered that they are shelterless which means they slept outside, in a car or at some-one else’s house.
According to city of� cial Tara Irwin, the decision was made to restrict the counting to people without regular shelter.
“We also recognize the im-portance of enumerating the hid-den homeless and those at risk of
homelessness,” she said. “Given the scope of this project and the available resources, it was de-cided that focusing on the un-sheltered homeless and those in emergency shelters be the focus.”
The survey also contained a section for people perceived to be homeless but who could not be interviewed.
According to Eys, housing is a far greater concern than food because while there are regular soup kitchens, shelters regularly suffer from overcapacity.
Some of those interviewed had differing circumstances lead-
ing them to become homeless.One person, said volunteer
Suzi Annala-Macdonald, said he was paying $600 a month for rent but was only receiving $610 a month in income assistance.
“I’ve heard a lot of bad re-views of the homeless shelters so some people would rather sleep in a dumpster or outside,” said another volunteer, Tracy Spen-cer, who was at the soup kitchen April 22 doing surveys.
While this was Terrace’s � rst homeless count, similar counts already take place in cities across B.C.

to tie up one of the big tanks.” Tucker will be inviting locals to test sample batches over the coming months.

pipeline, please build it on your land. It would appear you have people with a wage low for you to build it there. If you need help, we here have been advised through the abundance of media ads that we can build the safest pipeline in the world. Hire us Ca-nadians, we can do it. Dream on.
We will be building a pipeline in Alberta to a re� nery, staffed by Canadians, producing fuel to supply factories in Canada, building the Canada products built by Canadian hands, to supply the world and its economic needs – the pro� ts to be spent in Canada by Canadians to Canadian retail outlets.
We will end up with a strong dollar in the world economy.
The only jobs we are promised in this pipe dream is temporary jobs building it and we are getting permanent jobs cleaning up the damn mess this idiotic dream is about to lay on the en-vironment.
The politicians and the world need to un-derstand if we buy only Canadian products then the world market share goes down. Our econo-
my will be stronger in Canada. So Canadians next time you go to the mall, ask your retailer one simple question: Is this product made
in Canada? If not, why not? Look elsewhere.
Your vote should stand for something. Next election vote ‘no’ to politicians who sup-
port this foolish dream. Yes votes are the only thing politicians seem to understand.
I love Canada. Why would I ever allow

New Golf family offers quality at the right priceThe new seventh generation VW Golf arrives later this spring with a 2015 model designation.I have already had a chance to drive three examples of the new edition in Europe so I can offer you a sneak peek at what this very popular VW has going for it before it arrives here. The all-new car might look like the previous Golf but it is built on a platform that is shared across the VW group and represents a massive investment for the German manufacturer. This new platform, called MQB, enables the engineers to build all kinds of new products, be they bigger, smaller, wider or taller. What went into the design of the Golf represents a big step forward for Volkswagen as the latest model is 100kg lighter than the outgoing car but it is bigger, stiffer and safer than before. LooksIt could be argued that the new Golf looks too much like the older model but interacting with this new product quickly displays a level of refinement and finish that might be found in an upmarket Audi product. (This MQB platform is shared with the all-new Audi A3). Starting at $18,995, the base Golf is priced right in the heart of the compact market but this car sports a fully independent suspension, direct injection turbocharged engine and more power than much of the competition, at 170hp. The Golf GTI is my personal favourite due to the bad-boy looks, bigger wheels and improved engine and suspension. It starts at $27,995. The hot-hatch Golf R will arrive about a year after
the Golf and GTI and will come in at roughly the same price as the last R, right around $40,000 but fully loaded.InsideThe upside to having a slightly bigger platform is interior space and the cabin of the latest Golf does feel bigger, especially side-to-side. The centre console is wider and the dash is fitted with all-new switches and dials. Once again, the feel and look is almost Audi quality. Having a chance to drive the base car all the way up to the Golf R showed just how good the base car is. The only difference is the sportier seats
and splashier trim on the more expensive cars, but the overall design is the same from car to car and all exemplify the simple, yet elegant approach VW takes with all its interiors. DriveGone is the old 2.5-litre. 5-cylinder, replaced by an all-new 1.8-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder base engine. This engine too produces 170 but is more efficient, responsive and features state of the art technology. In the compact set, this kind of technology is unheard of at the roughly $19,000 asking price. Taking it up a notch is the legendary Golf GTI, now with 210hp from a new 2.0-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder. I had a shot driving this last year in Austria and I can say without question, this combination is fantastic. The Golf R is the ultimate Golf with roughly 300hp and an all wheel drive system. The same system is used in the all-new Audi S3 but this car comes fully loaded and will be roughly $4,000 less than the starting price of
the S3. A smart shopper might want to wait for the R over the S.
Verdict
This new Golf family is set to take on some very established players in the compact segment. With a hatchback design, this car has always been a more practical design than sedans like the Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla. With superb road manners, advanced engines and German engineering, the starting price looks like a winner. A big reason for this is the Golf is assembled in Mexico and these cars come into Canada without duty, (Thanks NAFTA) so VW added more content and kept the price low. The good news for diesel lovers is that the TDI en-gine will be available right out of the gate and now represents about 50 percent of Golf sales. This engine too has been modified to make it as fuel efficient as possible. All told, the Golf is more polished car than much of the competition and offers a trim level and price for all types of buyers, from basic to flat-out performance.

Question of the week:The BC government is considering raising the fine for distracted driving from $167. Should it match Ontario’s announced intent to increase its fine from $300 to $1,000 for people who talk or text on their hand held phones while driving?
Please explain why you have made that decision.Go to DrivewayCanada.ca to submit your answer and you could win a $100 Safeway gift card.
OF THE WEEK!

Safety Tip:Now that it’s grad season, ICBC road safety speakers will be talking to B.C. high school students with a very important
message: crashes are the number one preventable cause of death for youth in B.C. and teens need to recognize that they have the power to make smart choices.

Confessions of a Curber...Meet Walt. He lives with his wife and two teenagers in a quiet neighbourhood. Walt goes to work every morning, provides for his family and chats with his neighbours. Walt has a secret. He’s no Walter White from“Breaking Bad.” But, his love for quick cash and high profi ts drive him to a sideline that makes us all a little less safe and costs some their savings. Walt is a curber.

Having a chance to drive the base car all the way up to
the Golf R showed just how good the base car is.

NEW YORK – There was more sizzle in my New York steak dinner than on the show floor at the Big Apple’s interna-tional auto show.It seems the Big Four shot their lightning bolts at the pre-ceding Detroit and Los Angeles auto extravaganzas and left it to the import manufacturers to dazzle here.Nissan did not disappoint with the unveiling of a classy looking crossover in the shape of the all-wheel drive 2015 Nissan Murano. The mid-size model first showed up in 2002 and this new model marks the birth of the third-generation. The Nissan-named V-Motion nose and boomerang-shaped taillights ensure it makes an impression on the observer, coming and going, and distinguishes itself from its rivals.Inside, up to five passengers can expect more of a luxury ride than they might have enjoyed in the outgoing ver-
sion – heated and cooled front seats will impress those upfront. The trend in this segment to include huge sunroofs continues here.Under the hood, Nissan stays with the trusty 3.5-litre six-cylinder powerplant matched to a continuously variable transmission. Expect to see the Murano in the showrooms at the tail end of the year.Before moving on, the Nissan Sport Sedan Concept should be mentioned as it offers a clue to what the new Maxima might resemble. And boy, is it a looker despite the horrible orange colour of the show car! It too features a panoramic roof stretching almost from the windshield to the rear window. A production model version is expected later in the year, which suggests the L.A. show might benefit from that timetable.Any new Toyota Camry is an instant hit, especially in North America where it’s been the best selling car for 12 years.
Despite that, the Japanese manufacturer launched an all-new 2015 model, just three years after introducing a redesign.It incorporates design touches now appearing in sibling models, including a deeper grille that more resembles an upmarket Lexus. Interior materials are upgraded and a large central display matches the design trend of its competi-tors. Two trims are added; a sporty XSE with some luxury touches and a Hybrid SE. Toyota sticks with its 2.5-litre, four-cylinder, and 3.5-litre, six-cylinder engines plus its Hybrid Synergy Drive.Hyundai would like to put a serious dent in the Toyota Camry success story with its own mid-size sedan – the redesigned Sonata.

“I’d knocked off 200,000 km. Hopefully, she’s too naïve to notice”
I surprised my family with a trip to Hawaii. They didn’t have a clue how I paid for it. But they thought I was the best dad in the world. While we were away, I bought a car on eBay. It had over 350,000 km on it. No one will want to buy this piece of junk, I thought.Unless. I could just lower the mileage on it a little bit. And it won’t hurt anybody, right?One problem – I had no idea how to change an odometer*. But as it turns out, it’s much easier than I’d expected. With an odometer tool, I changed the reading to 164,500 km. Still a lot, but less than half the real clicks. My ad: “Minivan – old but in great condition! Only 164,500kms - it sat in my garage for the last 5 years. Must sell. If you’re looking for an older, but reliable and safe vehicle, call my cell and we’ll negotiate.”Looking back, I realized I’d knocked almost 200,000 km off the vehicle. But I shined it up and put some newer used tires on it so they wouldn’t give away its true condition.Will this get me in trouble? I wondered. I wasn’t doing anything wrong, really – this just gives me a chance to make some more money on the vehicle. I got a phone call from a young single mom who could only afford an older vehicle. We decided to meet at her son’s school. As I was showing her the car, I noticed the carpet, the door handles and the pedals kind of gave away its true condition. Hopefully she’s too naïve to notice, I thought.
Forty minutes later, our exchange was complete. I probably made an extra $2,000 because of the odometer! If I’d only done this to all the other cars I sold!Suddenly, my mind began processing the implications. That minivan was pretty much at the end of its life. That young mom is expecting the vehicle to last her for a few more years. At best, I see it lasting one more.Parts will start failing, calling for expensive repairs. I’m certain she doesn’t have the money for that. All I’m hoping is that it doesn’t break down on the highway. Maybe there was a reason I never did it before. Maybe, just maybe, I had a conscience up until now.
*Odometer: The law allows an odometer to be replaced when broken, but the repair must be recorded and the true mileage needs to be disclosed. CarProof and ICBC vehicle history reports can reveal more about how far a vehicle has really traveled. Even AirCare, where available, can help. And Walt is wrong; altering an odometer is a crime.

a serious look at upping the ante in the Camry. Other competitors have also risen to the challenge. Now the seventh-generation, newly styled, sharper looking 2015 Sonata raises the bar again with improved ride and handling plus advanced driver assistance and safety equipment. Unlike the Camry, the Sonata stays with purely four-cylinder engines. Standard is a 2.4-litre power plant and a turbocharged 2.0L four is an option.The one domestic manufacturer that did show up with something more exciting than the rest was Jeep, which introduced the compact Renegade. It is the iconic
brand’s first foray into the small SUV seg-ment.Its funky looks and fuel efficiency should make it an urban dweller hit but it also boasts best-in-class off-road capability, which may just bring in buyers from the growing outdoor adventure seekers.Two engine choices: a 2.4-litre Tigershark engine with MultiAir2 paired to the seg-ment’s first nine-speed automatic transmis-sion, or a 1.4-litre MultiAir Turbo engine with six-speed manual transmission.Prices for all of the above closer to launch when pencils have been sharpened and each figure out how they can undercut [email protected]

Learn to be disaster ready
A LOCAL girl took part in a seminar with other children from around the province who are also amputees recently.
Jessica Hamel, 10, born a left leg and partial left hand amputee, attended the three-day War Amps 2014 BC Child Amputee (CHAMP) seminar and during it, learned how to adopt the seminar theme “Set the Bar High” and not let her amputation be a barrier to living a full and active life.
Seminar discussion focused on the latest devel-opments in artificial limbs, dealing with teasing and bullying and parenting an amputee child.
Created in 1975, the Child Amputee (CHAMP) Program is built on the Winner’s Circle philosophy which encourages child amputees (Champs) to ac-cept their amputations and develop a positive ap-proach to challenges.
The CHAMP Program’s services provide fi-nancial assistance for artificial limbs and various recreational devices as well as emotional support through programs such as Matching Mothers, Sem-inars and Junior Counselling.

A 72-HOUR emergency kit is easy to make for each family member with essential items and a duffel bag to store them.
BEING PREPARED to cope in an emergency on your own involves three things: Know the risks, Make a plan, Get an emergency kit.
To help locals get ready, emergency social ser-vices groups are hosting an Emergency Prepared-ness Public Information Session to talk about how they prepare and explain how to develop a family emergency plan and other important things to know at 7 p.m. tonight, April 30, at the sportsplex.
In any emergency, being prepared and knowing what to do is the most important step. Relief work-ers will be on scene after an emergency but can’t reach everyone immediately and electricity, gas, water, sewage treatment and phones may be cut off for days, weeks, or longer. The idea is to have enough supplies for at least 72 hours of food, water and other essentials for each member of your fami-ly, including pets. Even better is to have enough for seven to 14 days. And have a grab-and-go kit ready in case of evacuation for each family member, pets included, which is a pared down version.
Basic items you will need to survive for 72 hours include water, at least two litres per person per day; food that won’t spoil (canned food, energy bars, dried foods); manual can opener; flashlight and batteries; candles and matches or lighter; battery-powered or wind-up radio and extra batteries; First Aid Kit and any prescription medications; extra car and house keys; cash in small bills, travellers cheques and change for pay phones and a copy of your emergency plan and contact information.

She learns to cook with you
CONTRIBUTED PHOTO
CHARLIE WALKER watches while Char Toews, host of Char Can’t Cook, rolls out homemade tortillas for chicken quesadillas.
CHAR CAN’T Cook.Besides being a
catchy phrase, it’s also a new show on Channel 10 to teach others, in-cluding the host, how to cook by going back to the basics that grandma would’ve taught you but that some people seem to have missed.
Char Toews, the host, says the show ex-plores traditional reci-pes, local gardens and wild food.
The half-hour show came about when Char was talking to Tamara Ainscow at Channel 10 about taping the Food Skills for Families ses-sions because partici-pants would sometimes miss classes and this way they could watch it at home.
Char’s first guest was Nita Tashoots, who had taken the Food Skills for Families classes, and found she was los-
ing weight just by fol-lowing what she had learned.
She demonstrated how to make moose stew – her son had just shot a moose or two – and it only had three in-gredients: moose, onion and carrots, said Char.
“It was just deli-cious,” said Char. She also made bannock, but instead of frying it, she put it in the oven, a low-er fat way to make it.
For the second show, Charlie Walker made chicken quesadillas with homemade tortillas.
“We just joke around and talk and cook and talk food,” she said.
Char finds she’ll bump into people ev-ery so often, asks them what they cook and if they’ll be on her show.
And she’s always looking for more celeb-rity chefs and is think-ing about an Iron Chef
Terrace cook-off with an live audience.
Char Can’t Cook is filmed at Ksan Place once a month and broadcast usually on
the third weekend of the month – the next episode being on May 15 and repeated May 16 and 17. And it’s set to be Agatha Jedrzejczyk
cooking Polish food, in-cluding “lazy perogies.”
Anyone who’d like to teach Char how to cook can call her at 250-635-2654.
Farmers market open to all vendorsTHE SKEENA Valley Farmers Market never turns away vendors, even when it looks like there’s too many for the spaces at the weekly market.
The market has about 80 vendors selling every-thing from locally grown produce to crafts, jewelry and various food.
Even with full-time or permanent vendors, there is room for drop-ins, says farmers market president Norm Frank.
“Quite often we’re able to accommodate all the drop-ins because there’s times when people are go-ing away on holiday or something else is happen-ing,” said Frank.
For example, most of the full-time vendors are farmers so they don’t come for several weeks until their produce is ready to sell.
First priority for spaces is given to people who are selling fresh produce or sometimes baking rath-er than something else, and the growers don’t have to be farmers, just gardeners, he said.
“We would turn away a drop-in vendor of jew-elry and take a vendor selling fruits and vegeta-bles,” he said, about how a choice could be made if needed.
And that makes sense because that’s what farm-ers market means: fresh and local.
“That’s right. The only [condition] is ‘make it, bake it or grow it,’” said Frank, adding vendors can’t be reselling something or trying to get rid of a garage sale item.
At times, there have been as many as 27 drop-ins on a Saturday, he added. Drop-ins don’t have to be pre-approved – as long as they’re familiar with how things work, they can show up at 7:30 a.m. and wait to see who else shows up.
Maxine Smallwood, the gatekeeper, assigns spots between 8 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. and after the cutoff time of 8:30 a.m., any late full-time vendors are out of luck – their spots are then given away.
If someone doesn’t like their spot and an ideal spot is vacant, a switch can be made.
“That happens every week,” he said. “People think they’re stuck in a spot that’s not
ideal, but only when we’re completely full do they have to have those spots.”
For example, baking vendors might prefer to be on the east side because the sun comes in and heats all their baking or melts the icing if they’re on the west side, said Frank.
The farmers market is also trying to go green which means vendors selling food or baking have to eliminate styrofoam containers and only have cardboard ones.
New this year, the farmers market is becoming part of the Good Food Box and also bringing in a coupon program from BC Association of Farmers Markets to help feed those with a low income.
They will be able to get coupons for fresh vege-tables and baking and there’s about 20 families and about six seniors signed up this year.
And contrary to what at least one city councillor thinks, the farmers market is not financed by the city.
“I have to say we are not funded at all by the city. We are on our own and they give us the prop-erty but that’s it. We do our own thing,” said Frank.
The Skeena Valley Farmers Market opens every Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. from May 3 to Octo-ber 25 at Market Street, the parking lot on the west side of George Little Park between Park Ave. and Davis Ave.

I was zipping along in my little white car the other day, the sun was shining, the grass along the gravel shoulder was greening, and
a warm, springy breeze danced through the open window. All of a sudden I was kissed, clear as anything, with the memory of a feeling that occasion-ally overwhelmed me when I was a kid playing outside on my grandma’s farm: a fantastic, totally-free, move alive-than-alive, rampaging, powerful, crazy, silly feeling. It was pure happy, the sense of extreme possibility and promise, and the conviction the world was full of good things and future ad-venture all rolled into one.
More often than not, when the feel-ing hit, I’d lift whatever stick I was carrying over my head (I was almost always carrying a “staff”) and charge down the nearby hill or into the field’s waist high grass, yelling a mixed roar-cheer: “Arrrrrrrrr!”
When I think back on those bouts of intense delight, a combination of rec-ollections gather, so maybe the feeling was birthed by mingling factors: the smell of sunshine on dirt, the scent of sap from budding trees, the chitter-chat of squirrels, the chirping of birds, the give and take of the ground beneath my bare, calloused feet—and the joy of be-ing enmeshed in whatever epic story I was living out as I trekked around. And something else was a huge contributor, too.
I was always by myself when the feeling hit. I didn’t have any adults, well meaning or otherwise, telling me to “keep it down,” to “be appropriate”
or to “not get carried away.” No one asked pointed questions about what I was so happy about anyway, or help-fully outlined the reasons I was wrong or naïve to be feeling wildly joyful and optimistic. There were no kindly sug-gestions that I manage my expectations so I wouldn’t be disappointed. . . .
I’ve definitely, thankfully, experi-enced lovely pure-happy as an adult too—but as with a lot of adult emo-tions, it’s usually more convoluted and layered, a bit shorter lived. I tend to di-minish it by analyzing it.
And I’m trying not to do that any-more. I don’t want to squash my grow-ing glee or kill it before it fully blooms.
I want to revel in. Enjoy it. Laugh out loud and shake my head and shout with it. Spin down a dirt road with my arms out to my sides ‘til I’m dizzy.
I want to live life. Really live it. I don’t want to put off things I really want to do in the wait for some per-ceived magic age or stage where I think I’ll have more time, more funds, more clarity, more whatever. . . .
Maybe you need to heed my advice too? If you’re unhappy where you’re at, make changes. If there’s something you really want to do, start doing it sooner rather than later. Will it be dif-ficult? Maybe. Maybe not. In hindsight I always realize the time I’ve spent re-sisting change I know I need or want is more excruciating than the actual leap ever turns out to be . . . but either way, easy and smooth or a tough uphill climb, the effort is worth it.
A bunch of things came together for me last week. I know why I had the ocean epiphany I wrote about last month, why I’m being surprised by random fits of euphoria, and experienc-ing deep, peaceful, standout-noticeable moments of happiness these days. I’m being more vocal about what I want, what I believe, and what huge ques-tions, fears, doubts, and insecurities I have. I’m sharing the things I’m ex-cited about, even proud of. I’m making changes. In my thinking. In my doing. In my being.
I haven’t charged down a hill recently, shouting at the top of my lungs, brandishing a stick—but I make no promises about the near future.

CANADA POST wants to open a sec-ond retail outlet similar to the one it has at Shoppers Drug Mart on Lake-lse Ave.
At one time, it had its eyes on a lo-cation in or around the downtown in-tersection of Kalum and Lakelse but is now looking elsewhere, says cor-poration spokesman Eugene Knapik.
“We have expanded the scope of our search. It is no longer limited to that or any specific location,” he said.
That Kalum and Lakelse intersec-tion would have been mere blocks from Shoppers Drug Mart and Can-ada Post’s own depot in the federal building on the corner of Emerson and Lazelle Ave.
“The franchises are not meant to be stand alone businesses, but rather complement the host business and generate traffic for that business,” said Knapik.
“Our retail managers know their marketplace and look for host busi-ness that will meet those needs.”
And although Canada Post is con-sidering a second retail franchise lo-cation, Knapik says its own depot and office won’t be affected, at least not for now.
“There are no plans to make any changes to our corporate outlet at this time,” he said.
Canada Post is embarking upon a series of changes across the coun-try to stem growing financial losses as more and more communications
business takes to digital distribution methods.
One of the largest changes involves reducing or cancelling door-to-door delivery in both larger and smaller centres. At the same time, Canada Post has just increased its rates – a let-ter stamp now bought singly costs $1.
The prospect of these and more changes has the union representing Canada Post workers warning of re-duced service.
Tim Armstrong from the Cana-dian Union of Postal Workers, which represents Canada Post workers, said Canada Post’s strategy to open up franchises is hurting its own cor-porate retail outlets causing them to close down altogether in some cases.
“In many cases if they aren’t out-right closing down the retail outlet that’s corporate run like the one in Terrace [on Lazelle] they are mov-ing it to a ‘Dutch door’ model,” said Armstrong.
“They take away all the retail prod-ucts and cash counters and basically put up a double door. You come in and ring a buzzer and someone working in the back doing mail processing has to come up and serve you.”
“If they don’t downsize, they con-tract out services to places like Shop-pers as they have done in Terrace, and the retail franchise is within blocks and bleeds away revenues from the corporate retail and they use that as an excuse to shut it down all together.”

A WORKER accom-modation company that has purchased property just north of Churchill Drive in Thornhill has told nearby residents it has no immediate plans to do anything with the
land.“They might use it at
some point for lodging, or infrastructure,” said Kitimat-Stikine region-al district Thornhill di-rector Ted Ramsey who attended an April 24
meeting called on short notice by the Edmon-ton-based PTI Group.
Churchill Drive resi-dents, worried about the impact, have started a petition.

THE KITSELAS Treaty of� ce booth won the WOW Award at the busi-ness expo last weekend. That’s Brittany Seymour. at the booth.
Businesses showcasewares at Chamber eventBUSINESSES RANG-ING in size from the large multi-national energy companies pur-suing lique� ed natural gas opportunities in the northwest to home-based enterprises were on display last week as the Terrace and Dis-trict Chamber of Com-merce’s Business Expo
2014 took place April 25-26 at the Terrace Sportsplex.
Non pro� t groups were also in attendance as were other groups, including the treaty of-� ces for the Kitselas and Kitsumkalum.
Judges the afternoon of April 25 toured both the main arena and ad-
jacent Hidber arena to determine award win-ners and here are the results:
Best Service – Northern Savings Cred-it Union
Best Industrial - Seabridge Gold
Best Retail - SpeeD-ee Of� ce Supplies
Best Commercial -
Daybreak FarmsBest Community/
Government - Kalum Quarry
Best Overall (as chosen by the judges) - RCMP
WOW Award - Kit-selas Treaty
The chamber has been hosting the event for more than 12 years.

Camp company hosts meetIn anticipation of liq-
ue� ed natural gas plant construction in Kitimat requiring living quar-ters for thousands of workers, the company has already received zoning permission from the District of Kitimat to construct accommo-dation within that mu-nicipality’s boundaries.
Ramsey said PTI of-
� cials told the nearly 20 people who attended the meeting held at the Skeena Valley Golf and Country Club that the company sometimes holds onto property for several years before de-veloping it.
The PTI presentation introduced residents to what the company does, Ramsey said, and
highlighted some of the positives that worker accommodation can have in terms of staf� ng jobs and using other lo-cal labour.
“I liked the presen-tation, they did a good job,” said Ramsey, add-ing that of particular interest was a PTI as-sertion that any worker lodging would entail
a contribution towards developing sewage and/or water systems on site.
“If a sewer line is something they do want then we are certainly into listening to them,” said Ramsey.

NORTH COAST Nightmares Elise “Hellise” Bentley, left, Angela “Betty Fight” Boutilier, right, and Jenny “Bam!b” Danskin, back, put the squeeze on the Rated PG Roll-erGirls jammer during the April 19th bout in Prince George.
TERRACE’S NORTH Coast Nightmares are moving up in the national roller derby rankings with a 171 to 128 win over the Rated PG Roller Girls in Prince George April 19.
This is the first time the Night-mares have beaten the more expe-rienced Roller Girls and a sign that the hard work the Terrace players have put in growing the team over the past few years is beginning to pay off.
Their second competitive sea-son in, the team sees a lot more players consistently show up to practices, said co-captain Jessica
“Marge Sins Some” Hogg. This has allowed them to deepen their level of training with more op-portunities to work out plays and scrum as a team.
“The Nightmares have been working hard on strategy and team-work the last few months,” said co-captain, Jenny “Bam!b” Danskin. “We came out as a cohesive team, working together and executing our plays, which ultimately made us successful.”
It looked like it was going to be a tight game for the first half of the match up, with the halftime score at the Roll-o-Dome showing Rated
PG sitting at 66 to the Nightmares’ 61. Both teams had been success-ful in scoring points nearly every jam.
But the Nightmares came back from half-time looking to break away and get the win. And the co-hesive team strategy they’d been working on began to pay off.
“Our blockers were aggres-sively throwing hits in the pack and successfully playing offensive strategy with the team’s jammers,” said Hogg. “I think this really helped us score enough points to beat Rated PG.”
By the end of the game, the
Nightmares had it wrapped up, with 171 points to Rated PG’s 128.
And the game saw another first for the Nightmares.
Playing under the updated Women’s Flat Track Derby As-sociation rules, this was the first bout the Nightmares played with 30-second penalties. Before the change, players served a full min-ute in the “sin bin.”
“When a jammer goes to the box for a penalty, it enables the op-posing team to play just offense, which is a great opportunity to rack up the points,” explained head coach Beny Bones. “With only 30
seconds to do that, it has definitely changed the dynamics of Roller Derby power plays.”
This victory over Prince George has boosted the team’s ranking to 167th in Canada, and just 11 spots behind Quesnel’s Gold Pain City, the Nightmares’ next opponents. The Nightmares host Quesnel for the “Who’s Your Momma?” bout at the Terrace Sportsplex on May 10.
And if you want to get a feel for roller derby before the big bout, the Nightmares host public roller skate nights at the Sportplex each Tuesday.
THE TERRACE Minor Hockey Association hosted its annual awards banquet April 12, giving recognition to the players, coaches, volunteers and parents who devote their time to the sport.

Her home was always filled with friends and laughter and she was known for her kindness, thoughtfulness and generosity.She loved baking, knitting and camping but most of all she loved spending time with her family and friends. In 2007 she moved into assisted living where she made many new friends and enjoyed the social activities there. As her health issues persisted she remained strong with a positive outlook.

Specifically, the Complaint alleges that the Respondents have discriminated against the Class by failing to adequately fund or deliver hospital services at Wrinch Memorial Hospital (“WMH”). The Complaint has not yet proceed-ed to hearing before the BC Human Rights Tribunal but is currently scheduled to be heard in April 2015.
The Class on whose behalf the Complaint has been brought includes all status and non-status First Nations people residing in or near the communities of Hazelton, New Hazelton, Gitanyow, Gitwangak, Gitsegukla, Kispiox, Gitanmaak, Hagwilget, Morice-town and Glen Vowell or residing in an area served by WMH.
If you are currently a member of the Class, you have the right to remain a member of the Class or to opt out.
If you wish to remain a member of the Class you do not need to do anything. In this case, you will be bound by the outcome of the Complaint whether or not it is suc-cessful. We will continue to publish important developments on the processing of the Complaint.

Dear Future Generations, Please accept our apologies.
We were rolling drunk on Petro-leum. – Kurt Vonnegut
Jim, who, if they had such a category in the Guinness Book, would hold the re-cord for the most meetings attended in one lifetime, set up the meeting. At a public fo-rum hosted by the Albertan gas company intending a natural gas line up the Clore Valley, Jim button-holed one of the heavy hitters and badgered him into a private ses-sion.
When Al and I arrived at the Elephant’s Ear, Jim was already there with a young woman representing the gas company. After introductions she passed out busi-ness cards. Neither Jim nor Al had cards, so I gave her my Terrace Mountain Guitar School card and suggested, half in jest, that if she wanted a few guitar lessons while in Terrace, she should feel free to give me a shout. As we sipped, she told us her boss, Joe, was tied up, but would join us shortly.
I asked her how long she’d been with the gas men.
Not long she said, then added that be-fore joining them, she’d trained to be, then worked, in environmental assessment.
Do you believe in climate change? I asked.
She hesitated, obviously taken aback. I assured her that I was not trying to
attack her but rather give her a clear and honest picture of where I stood. Jim and Al, will probably do likewise, I suggested. Doing this, I said, will enable us to more
expeditiously determine if anything meaningful can be accomplished between us. I then went on to tell her that I � rmly believed that climate change was the overarching problem, and that our survival as a species depended on moving away from fossil fuels. I offered that natural gas, though perhaps not as bad as coal, petroleum, and bitumen, was still a sig-ni� cant contributor to the global greenhouse and extracting in from shale shelves was environmentally repre-hensible.
At this point, Joe arrived, shook our hands, and dealt his cards. I looked at mine. Following his name were a P. Eng. and a Phd.
You don’t get to be a Professional En-gineer and a Doctor of Philosophy by be-ing stupid and ignorant. I immediately as-sumed Joe was familiar with the perils of Climate Change, appreciated the enormous contribution the fossil fuel industry was making to the problem, knew of the scien-ti� c consensus on Climate Change, under-stood the precautionary principle, and that he was familiar with the grave warnings issued by the United Nations on the matter.
Al picked up where I’d left off. The
meeting veered away from practical matters, like potential problems in the construction phase and mitigation, and moved to a broader and more important realm.
Al asked Joe how he reconciled his job with global warming. Joe squirmed and waved his arms. He had an obliga-tion to his company and his team, he said. Yes, he agreed that there were environmental prob-lems, but they were out-side his department.
And there it was, the nut of the issue. To rationalize, Joe com-partmentalized, as if doing so would wash away all his corporation’s responsibilities on the matter.
What about your responsibility to your fellow citizens and your family? asked Al.
Joe spun his � rst statement on the issue, and essentially gave the same answer all fossil fuel corporations and their minions do. The fossil fuel corporations exist and pro� t because they operate within soci-ety. They operate on a global scale. Their exertions have a global effect. They have, therefore, a corporate responsibility to en-sure that their actions are not detrimental to the global community. It’s clear, then, they are obligated to phase themselves out in fa-vour of sustainable energy.
This is something they can do given that they are the richest entities the world has ever known. They need to use their enor-mous wealth to underwrite a shift to green energy production. Good governments would force them to do this, but sadly the same corporations have used their immense wealth to co-opt and enfeeble governments the world over. The US Government is in the thrall of the fossil fuel industry. Our PM is an ex-oil man and the son of an oil man, who has shown he will do anything to aid and abet Big Oil. And, we have a pre-mier who sees her legacy in Big Gas.
The Fossil Fuel Corporations have de-cided that their commitment to pro� ts and superior value for their shareholders trump their responsibility to humanity. What is the result? If we use war as an analogy, weather becomes the enemy. Pumping out enormous amounts of greenhouse gas into the atmosphere provides arms to the en-emy it subsequently uses to pound us with increasing ferocious storms many orders of magnitude stronger than nuclear strikes.
Acidi� cation of the seas, air and water contamination, and the destruction of the natural world are fallout from this war, yet the largest arms dealers, like the infamous Koch brothers, spend billions on PR cam-paigns designed to muzzle scientists and convince the masses that climate change doesn’t exist.
We can only hope that shareholders wake up and realize that it’s entirely pos-sible their solid returns are purchased at the price of killing their grandchildren.
