■ United front across the NorthwestALL 21 municipal leaders of the newly expanded Northwest British Columbia Resource Benefits Alliance meet at the Best Western Hotel Aug. 15 to sign a Memorandum of Understanding that unifies the Regional District of Skeena-Queen Charlotte, the Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine, and the Regional District of Bulkley-Nechako. The consortium of mayors and regional district directors hopes to negotiate a wide-sweeping revenue-sharing agreement that will bring money from resource development to northern communities, for infrastructure, services and legacy savings.

A CIVIL suit continues to heat up as another of the defendants is alleging that medical staff were negligent in treating a man rushed to hospital from police cells.
This time it’s Const. Brian Heideman, formerly of the Terrace RCMP and now posted in the Okanagan, lining up alongside Terrace RCMP against Mills Memorial Hos-pital, a doctor and nurse in the case.
The first action was Terrace resident Rob-ert Wright suing the RCMP and Const. Brian Heideman for head injuries he says resulted from excessive force and for negligence in the way he was treated by police after his
arrest for drunk driving in 2012. This June, the RCMP issued its own ap-
plication adding Dr. DeWit, Mills Memorial Hospital and a nurse only referred to as Jane Doe. The RCMP alleged that the medical staff who saw Wright when he was brought to hospital for treatment three times after be-ing arrested in April 2012 were themselves negligent.
In July, DeWit, followed by the hospital, responded saying he did follow proper pro-cedure and protocols and said any injury or damage to Wright was caused by police.
This application by Heideman is asking the justice to allow him to also name the hos-pital, doctor and nurse as third parties and
for costs to be paid by the hospital regardless of outcome of the case.
Heideman is asking for relief from the third parties in the form of “a declaration that any damage suffered by the plaintiff by reason of the matters set out in the amended notice of civil claim was caused by or con-tributed to by the negligence of the third par-ties; contribution and indemnity from the third parties for any liability of the claiming party to the plaintiff; the claiming party’s costs of defending this action; and the claim-ing party’s costs of conducting these third party proceedings.
Replies from the third parties to Heide-man’s application had not been filed as of
last week.In replying to the RCMP adding it as
a third party back in June, Mills Memo-rial Hospital’s argument says that the police failed to bring the third party application for-ward or at least make their intentions known to do so at the time when the police were named in the lawsuit.
The police offered no explanation for that delay, said the hospital in its response.
“It is submitted that here, the Applicant (Terrace RCMP) was well aware of the role of MMH (Mills Memorial Hospital) as a po-tential third party at the outset of the litiga-tion,” reads the response.

SCHOOL BUS drivers Tony Sousa and Steve Verblac show off a row of brand new 2016 school buses, ready to go for September. Diversified Transport bought the new buses as part of their new five-year contract with the Coast Mountain School District.
30+ new school buses ready to hit the roadBy JACKIE LIEUWEN
OVER 30 brand new school buses have arrived and are being readied for service next month by the Coast Mountains School District’s new bussing company.
Diversified Transportation won a five-year contract this spring, edging out First Canada ULC which had the contract for 30 years.
The 31 new 2016 Freightliner buses fit 72 elementary students three to a seat, said Diversified district manager Luis Gonzalez.
There are three more smaller buses, two in Terrace and one in Kitimat, which are wheelchair accessible and have capacity for up to 20 students.
“They are great units, brand new, that will service the community well,” Gonzalez said of the buses.
D i v e r s i f i e d Transportation, which also runs the Northern Health buses in B.C., has 21 buses to be based in Terrace, 10 in Hazelton and three in Kitimat.
There are 41 drivers lined up to cover 29 routes.
“We are foreseeing that after training or after school
starts, some people might find the job is not the best fit,” said Gonzalez.
Diversified will also need on-call drivers to cover holidays and it has hired one mechanic in Terrace to look after the buses.
All the drivers who applied had to take a two-week training course, to equip them to manage students and drive the routes and acquaint themselves with Diversified’s standards.
Ten drivers are still completing training in Terrace and eight in Hazelton.
“We are really looking for the personality and attitude that matches our core values,” said Gonzalez.
Of the drivers that used to work for First Canada here, Gonzalez says at least 25 to 30 per cent have come over to Diversified.
The five-year contract is worth $10.5 million, depending on number of routes and fuel costs in subsequent years, and there is an option to renew for two years.
Diversified and First Choice were the only companies to submit formal proposals.

Environmental Assessment of the Proposed Aurora LNG Project
Open House and Invitation to Comment
Aurora LNG (Proponent) is proposing to construct and operate the Aurora LNG Project (proposed Project), a liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility and marine terminal for the export of LNG. The proposed Project would be located on the southeast corner of Digby Island near Prince Rupert, BC. The proposed Project would export up to 24 million tonnes per annum of LNG.
The proposed Project is subject to review under British Columbia’s Environmental Assessment Act and is also undergoing a substituted environmental assessment under the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act.
The Proponent must obtain an environmental assessment certificate before any work can be undertaken on the proposed Project. However, prior to submission of an application (Application) for a certificate by the Proponent, the Environmental Assessment Office of British Columbia (EAO) must first approve the Application Information Requirements.
The Application Information Requirements will specify the studies to be conducted and the detailed information to be provided by the Proponent in its Application. The EAO has now received draft Application Information Requirements from the Proponent and invites comments on this draft.
To provide information about the Application Information Requirements, EAO invites the public to attend an Open House. The Open House is scheduled as follows:
at: North Coast Meeting & Convention Centre 240 – 1st Avenue West, Prince Rupert on: Wednesday, September 23, 2015 from: 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
There are 30 days for the submission of comments by the public in relation to the draft Application Information Requirements. The comment period will begin on September 1, 2015 and end on October 1, 2015. All comments received during this comment period in relation to the Application Information Requirements will be considered.
The intention of seeking public comments is to ensure that all potential effects – environmental, economic, social, heritage and health – that might result from the proposed Project are identified for consideration as part of the assessment process. At this stage of the process, the primary intent is to receive feedback about the studies or information required for a comprehensive environmental assessment.
After taking public comments into account, EAO will finalize the Application Information Requirements and issue them to the Proponent.
EAO accepts public comments through the following ways:
ONLINE FORM http://www.eao.gov.bc.ca
MAIL Sean Moore Project Assessment Manager Environmental Assessment Office PO Box 9426 Stn Prov Govt Victoria BC V8W 9V1
FAX 250-387-0230
An electronic copy of the draft Application Information Requirements and information regarding the environmental assessment process are available at www.eao.gov.bc.ca. Copies of the draft Application Information Requirements are also available for viewing at these locations:
Prince Rupert Public Library 101 – 6th Avenue West, Prince Rupert
Aurora LNG Office 344 2nd Avenue West, Prince Rupert
If you are unable to participate at this time, there will be an additional comment period during the Application Review stage when you will also be able to provide comments to EAO on the proposed Project.
NOTE: All submissions received by EAO during the comment period in relation to the proposed Project are considered public and will be posted to the EAO website.

FINDING THE stolen Kitsumkalum � re truck was a surprise to one of the men who discovered it while out quadding.
Dave Reinhardt, who is a member of Terrace ATV and Side by Side Society, was out with Brian Deacon and Derek Euverman when they discov-ered the truck just off the West Kalum Forest Road in the afternoon of Aug. 10.
“We were just out for a ride and we knew that it was missing and we just happened to stumble upon it,” he said last week.
“At the Tempo gas station that morning, the gas station attendant said it had been found out by Smithers. That was just a rumour.”
On August 6, Terrace RCMP reported the theft, saying that their investigation showed that the thieves approached the � re truck in a pickup at 2:48 a.m. August 2.
Minutes later, the � re truck was seen heading north on the West Kalum Forest Service Road near Kitsumkalum, said police.
Reinhardt said they found the truck about 39 km up the road, which is just about to its dead end, and then another 3 km down another logging road in the bush.
It looked like the thieves missed the corner at that point on the road and got stuck, he said, adding the tires were buried in the dirt, indicating they had tried to get it out but couldn’t.
He added that it wasn’t a big curve and was hard to see, especially in the middle of the night when the truck was stolen.
The trio of quad riders rode back within cell phone range, called the police, waited for them to arrive and showed them where the truck was, he said. Thanks to the keys being left in the truck’s ignition, the tow truck operators had an easier time getting it loaded onto their truck, said Reinhardt.
“It was nice of them to leave the keys in it,” he said. He thought that people at Kitsumkalum had gone out looking for the truck in that area but didn’t go far enough. The Kitsumkalum Band of� ce post-ed the discovery of the truck on its Facebook page August 10.
“Thanks Brian Deacon, Dave Reinhardt and Derek Euverman and the Terrace ATV and SXS Society for � nding stolen Kitsumkalum Volunteer Fire� ghters’ � re truck!
“We appreciate all the community support and all of those who went out of their way to look for our � re truck.”
Terrace RCMP media relations of� cer Const. Angela Rabut said police are continuing to investi-gate who was responsible.

TERRACE PROVINCIAL court had a busy week with several convictions and sentences being handed down. Here’s some examples from August 11.
Larz Morrison was handed a conditional sentence of 28 days followed by one year of probation with conditions on a charge of assault causing bodily harm. The sentence for the second charge, resist or obstruct a peace of� cer in the execution of his duty, was the same except it didn’t include probation.
He must also pay a victim surcharge of $100 due June 1, 2016 and provide a DNA sample to police.
Misty Louie received a suspended sentence with one year of probation with conditions and ordered to pay a victim � ne surcharge of $100 due August 1, 2016 on a charge of theft under $5,000.
A charge of breaching an undertaking was stayed by the court.

Secret trailsA short guide to some of Terrace’s less known paths
THIS TRAIL junction is just south of Walmart beside the Dudley Little Bridge. The one straight ahead follows the Skeena River west to the Southside neighbourhood behind Walmart. The left turn is a longer trail that goes under the bridge and follows the Skeena east almost as far as the Old Bridge.
THIS OPENING at the bottom of Kalum Hill leads into the general Terrace Mountain trail system but from a different location from the main trailheads. On this system you can walk from the north end of Terrace to the south following a variety of routes. Apparently there are also a few small caves back in there.
ANOTHER HIDDEN trail by a hill, this time at the top of Lanfear Hill. A nice continuation for those coming up from the Howe Creek Trail, this trail follows the edge of the Bench into a residential area with other trail options further in.
ACCESS THIS path by hiking down to the rocks below the south end of the Old Bridge and head east from there towards Thornhill. This jaunt will take you through a nice mixed stand of trees which is particularly nice in the fall. The trail ends at the back of a big � eld which is private property. This short hike (about 25 minutes return), is a good add-on to a longer walk starting in town.
LOCATED ON Soucie Ave. between Marshall St. and Bailey St. on the Bench, this is the north end of a great wooded area with trails that will take you to many delightful and un-expected exit points. Skirt around the edge of the bike area and options abound.
THIS ROAD-TURNED-TRAIL starts on the west side of Kalum Lake Rd. near the top of the hill on the left side, just north of Floyd Ave. It leads to trails behind Skeena Sawmills, with trails also reaching up to the Kitsumgallum cemetery.
OKAY, WELL this one is not a huge se-cret, but it’s tucked away on Kitselas Rd. in the northeast corner of town so might go unnoticed. Created over the last few years, the trail was prepared by local mountain biking group TORCA, but can be hiked and snowshoed depending on the time of year. On the other side of Kitselas is the Terrace Mountain trail system. A parking area is located at the trailhead.
ONE OF the joys of exploring Terrace is getting to know the many trails that wind through town. The more one walks and bikes, the more trails one discovers. And while having one’s own secret favourites is great, it’s more fun to share. This feature story will reveal some of Terrace’s lesser known trails. Just make sure to be bear aware and also mountain biker aware. Or, if you are on a bike, mind the hikers. Many trails are made by volunteers for mountain biking purposes, and the bikers need hikers to get out of the way if they are soaring down the slopes.

Based on recent news stories, parents are raising kids to copy their
peers’ misbehaviour without chastisement.
The most recent example is that of a Vancouver boy watching a street performer balance on a tube set on a platform four feet above the pavement. The boy tried to pull the tube out from under the busker’s platform, making the busker teeter dangerously. The kid’s parents laughed.
The practice of young men hurling obscenities at female reporters working at outdoor events gained popularity in Canada this spring though reporters in both Canada and the U.S. have endured harassment for months. Videos of the incidents were replayed by males who thought the behaviour hilarious and worth emulating. The laughs faded when serious consequences kicked in.
A Hydro One engineer in Ontario, who along with sev-eral buddies had hurled un-printable words at a female reporter following a soccer game, was � red from his six-� gure job two days after his
employer viewed his harass-ing behaviour on YouTube and declared it breached the company’s code of conduct.
Only a week or two later in Calgary young men driv-ing by on the street shouted the same unprintable line at a working female reporter. Her camera captured the truck’s license plate. Police charged the man with “stunting”. The non-criminal offence, de� ned as distracting, star-tling or interfering with other users of a roadway, carries a $402 � ne. As of May 1, the � ne was hiked to $543.
Did other young men learn from those incidents? Doesn’t seem so.
As recently as August 7 while CBC reporter Megan Batchelor reported among the crowd at the Squamish Valley Music Festival a 17-year-old rushed up, almost knocking her over, to plant a kiss on her cheek and take a sel� e.
Batchelor objected publicly to the kiss and � led a complaint with RCMP. She didn’t want the 17-year-old charged; she wanted him to understand the gravity of his behaviour and a message to seep into the unused brains of other unthinking males. The 17-year-old has since apologized, Batchelor accepted, and the RCMP dropped her complaint.
But readers lined up on both sides to comment.
Some said the young woman was making too much of a simple kiss, and registering a public complaint merely to gain publicity.
I disagree. What woman so craves male attention she chooses to be slobbered over by any boor who fancies himself George Clooney? No one, male or female, should be disturbed while working regardless of their trade, nor should they have to endure
sexual insults or assaults.Most outrageous, one
writer compared the 17-year-old’s off-balance kiss to the famous historical incident of the returning sailor kissing a young woman in New York’s Times Square as ticker tape � uttered down the day World War II ended. The sailor had survived a six-year war. The l7-year-old had enjoyed the day relaxing at an outdoor concert! And it’s my guess both the sailor and the young woman in his arms were equally caught up in the ex-citement of the war’s end.
We wouldn’t endure inci-dents such as these if more parents were as dedicated as Toya Graham, the Baltimore mother who recognized her 16-year-old son Michael on the street dressed in baggy pants, a hoodie, wearing a mask, and holding a rock, ready to participate in a riot.
She raced to the area, and in front of his peers and news cameras she yanked his mask off, boxed his ears, and yelled at him, “Are you for real? This is what you want to do? I told you I’d come down here. Didn’t I? Now you get along home.”
Now that’s old-style parenting.

ESTABLISHED APRIL 27, 1988
LOCAL residents have only to look at the work being done by Thorn-hill’s Ron and Mavis Ramsey to move the affordability of prescrip-tion drugs to the top of the list of is-sues under debate during this federal election.
After hearing stories of seniors and others who either could not af-ford prescriptions written for them or were stretching out the prescrip-tions they were able to purchase, the Ramseys, through their Helping Hands Society, began raising money to help by recycling cans, bottles and scrap metal.
Bolstered with private and other donations, the money is then used at the discretion of pharmacists and physicians based on need.
That such a program has struck a chord in the area speaks much about the essential good nature of people to help others. That it has the sup-port and assistance of health care professionals speaks volumes about how they view the affordability of prescription drugs.
An extensive 2012 study published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal, for example, determined that at 17 per cent, British Columbia residents “were more likely to report cost-related nonadherence” when it came to prescription drugs.
There have been many calls to in-troduce a national pharmacare pro-gram with supporters pointing out the bene� ts far outweigh its costs.
Now’s the time to question federal election candidates on where they stand – and why.

than you do.” He would not have recognized his observation as a comment on contemporary legal responses to climate change.
As consumers we rush to pur-chase new technical gimmickry from drugs to wearable electron-ics, all products that owe their genesis to basic science. Yet despite this faith many people exhibit a sullen and stubborn re-sistance to a climate science that warns we are risking peril by refusing to curb production of greenhouse gases.
Contemporary First World humans are energy junkies, and carbon fuels (with trillions in in-vested capital) dominate our en-ergy infrastructure. We prize liq-uid fuels for their energy density, and we rely on hydrocarbons for the plastics, paints, fertilizers, lu-bricants, drugs, and thousands of industrial chemicals which make up our modern lives.
We enjoy cheap air travel and
car-dominated landscapes (de-spite their demonstrable costs and inefficiencies). Our large-screen TVs glow and our smartphones hum. Eighteen-wheelers roll the world’s products to our commu-nities. We sleep on Egyptian cot-ton and drink South African mer-lot, wear garments manufactured in Bangladesh and heal ourselves with designer drugs from Europe. The vast majority of us live in ways that would be envied by any historical king or pharaoh.
Each of us has a stake in this cornucopia of success. The pub-lic relations industry conditions us to be ideal consumers. And the vast social class of owners, inves-tors, managers, CEOs, accoun-tants, and stock promoters drives a culture that demands the contin-ual growth of our huge, grinding economic machine.
Despite this abundance, we sense that all is not as we would like it: wildfires, droughts, su-perstorms, and floods punctuate a climate that seems somehow out of whack. Icefields and gla-ciers are shrinking and aquifers
are drying up. In any given year refugees from climatic disasters routinely outnumber political refugees.
And no longer is alarm over the looming climate problem merely the noisy babble of iso-lated minorities. Public figures and institutions from the Roman Catholic Pope to the American Department of Defense recog-nize climate change as perhaps
the largest challenge facing con-temporary and future society.
As climate damage accrues, victims increasingly begin to blame purveyors of carbon-fuel products, accusing them of mass torts (if not of crimes). Some-times these accusations relate to specific events, such as fracking-caused poisoning of groundwa-ter or oil spills. Others begin to address the whole industrial model of carbon-based energy production. Predictably, own-ers of carbon fuel assets (and of industrial concerns reliant upon them) defend themselves, often to the point where they are com-mitting the kinds of fraud that in other venues would be criminal. Corporations that fund massive disinformation campaigns pre-tending to debunk the seriousness of the issue are acting in precise-ly such a manner. Governments such as our federal Conservatives amplify the problem.
Recent reports suggest that fossil fuel corporations have been aware of the climate problem since the 1980s, but have cho-
sen protecting profits over taking morally responsible social action.
A startling legal decision by Dutch courts would force their government to coordinate reduc-tion of their country’s carbon emissions by 25 per cent in five years. More such suits are likely.
When and how will social consumption that creates carbon emissions come to be considered criminal? When oil and gas pro-ducers shrug as to their respon-sibility for climate change, argu-ing they are only responding to demand, they are not completely wrong (although they are some-what disingenuous).
None of us is ready to freeze in the dark, nor are many willing to diminish our personal indul-gences made possible by carbon emissions. Our enthusiasm to indict the fraudsters should not blind ourselves to our own culpa-bility and the reality of our own addictions. When it comes to fos-sil fuels, most of us are alcohol-ics.

THERE’S MORE to how many taxes are included on the city’s annual statement than first meets the eye.
Actually, three paid more taxesDear Sir:
I’m writing in response to a recent letter to the editor pub-lished in the July 29th edition of The Terrace Standard in which the writer commented on property taxes paid by four members of City of Terrace council.
As indicated in The Terrace Standard article of July 8th, three of the four councillors
saw a decrease in their municipal taxes this year, when compared to last year (It is the portion of the taxes collected that are for the City of Terrace, itemized on tax notices as “General Mun.”).
However, what was not spelled out in detail is the fact that the assessed values of their three homes increased by less than the average, which
in turn resulted in a less than the average (zero percent) tax increase.
Taxation is dictated and strictly regulated by the Community Charter.
Assessed values are part of the mathematical equation that dictates the outcome (your tax bill).
The City of Terrace and every other taxing jurisdiction
in the province must apply tax rates consistently based on as-sessed values as determined by a third party (BC Assessment).
The fact that the assessed value of a property increases or decreases more or less than the average for the area has a direct impact on the taxes in relation to the average. Cont’d Page 08
Dear Sir:I would like to clarify statements made in the
Aug. 12, 2015 story, “Fish a renewed focus for treaty talks.”
It is true that a chapter on fish was not included in the agreements-in-principle recently signed by the federal and provincial governments and the Kitselas and Kitsumkalum First Nations. The communities ratified these agreements in 2013, understanding that fish would be a part of Final Agreement negotiations and that we would not consider a Final Agreement without fish.
The government did open the fish mandate in December 2014 and Kitselas and Kitsumkalum have begun substantive talks on fish as part of Final Agreement negotiations. Metlakatla is part of these negotiations as an opportunity to advance their own interests in fish as part of their Agreement-in-Principle (not yet complete). While there is much in common, each nation negotiating the fish chapter at the table has different interests and those interests are represented in the unique language of each agreement. It is important to understand that these are not separate talks, but are part of the negotiation process.
It is also important to understand that negotiations around fish do not involve an allocation or quota for the average person. Fish negotiations will provide certainty around the right to fish for the First Nation and ensure that each Nation will continue to be able to exercise their section 35 right to fish for food, social and ceremonial purposes. Where an allocation would apply is with commercial fishing or in the event of necessary conservation measures.

Council approved a zero percent tax increase for residential properties this year, so homes with an increased assessment of less than the area average saw a reduction in their municipal taxes. Conversely, if the assessment increased more than the average, a municipal tax increase would have resulted.
In addition, we note that when taking into consideration all taxes collected (including those for provincial school tax, the Northwest Regional Hospital District, Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine, Municipal Finance Authority and BC Assessment Authority), three of the four properties in question saw tax increases.
We hope this helps to clear up any misconceptions.

Dear Sir,I would like to report
how very impressed I was, and no doubt a number of other people were too, with Constable Muzzerall’s effort at preventing a forest fire.
My husband and I were up in the Nass visiting friends in each of the villages and were returning to Terrace for the day. Just past Rosswood, nearing Terrace, we saw smoke up ahead. As we rounded the corner we saw a fire on the side of the road. A tree had come down and hit the wires; one had broken and had sparked the fire. A few cars were already off to the side and had radioed the call in (no cell service there). We were standing around feeling helpless as we had a rental car with, of course, no equipment that could help stop a fire. After about 30 minutes a RCMP car came from the (Rosswood side) lights and sirens going. We thought it was the lead vehicle for the fire crews. Instead, Constable Muzzerall jumped out with a fire extinguisher. We smiled, thinking that wouldn’t do anything as the blaze was getting pretty big and seemed to be well into at least one tree. He tried to go at it from the front but got blown back. He went in behind and (amazingly) got the
fire significantly reduced. He then grabbed a shovel from his car and was beating at the fire, smashing it out. He dug and threw dirt on it and so on. He just kept going. We felt terrible that there was nothing we could do to help. After about 30 more minutes, an RCMP vehicle came from the Terrace side. Again, we thought, now the fire fighters will be here. Still no. Constable Muzzerall called to see if this officer had a fire extinguisher. Luckily he
did, and the officer grabbed it and hurried to Constable Muzzerall. Again, Constable Muzzerall was able to get the fire greatly reduced. Finally a helicopter came overhead, took a look and left. The Terrace officer (I’m sorry I didn’t get his name) politely asked us to move on as the helicopter was going to be dropping water on the area.
Constable Muzzerall must have worked steadily for more than an hour trying to contain
this fire. If he had not done what he did, there may well have been a serious forest fire in the area.
I am forever thankful for the work police officers do day in and day out but what Constable Muzzerall was above and beyond the call of duty. It also went unnoticed but for the few of us there.
With extreme gratitude,Kathleen Sutherland
Terrace, B.C.

Tsimshian enviro work beginsBy JOSH MASSEY
TECHNICAL EXPERTS working for the newly formed Tsimshian Environmental Authority have begun comparing notes on the potential effects of liquefied natural gas developments on the coast.
Kitselas chief councillor Joe Bevan joined other chiefs from Metlakatla, Gitxaala, Kitsumkalum and Gitga’at in forming what is called the Tsimshian Environmental Stewardship Authority in early July, and the monthly meetings bring together technical teams from these different governments.
Bevan says the main driver behind the formation of the new authority is to provide collective oversight for the planned Pacific Northwest LNG project near the mouth of the Skeena river at Prince Rupert.
“The main project is PNW,
because they are right there on Lelu island and some of the other nations have voiced concern about flora bank, what’s that going to look like once you start developing,” he said of the estuarial waters key to young salmon survival near the development.
“They said they weren’t going to do the dredging but when you start building on the two sides of that, what is that going to do to the river, to flora banks, so that is the major concern, and we are confident that PNG is working on it,” he said.
“We, the Tsimshian, have created a stewardship authority concerning Pacific Northwest LNG and Prince Rupert Gas Transmission, with the goal of coming together as a collective, to voice our concerns. We feel that together we are a stronger voice. Together, our collective concerns will be met,” Bevan continued.
The group shares office space with the Northcoast Skeena First Nations Stewardship Society where they have their meetings, he said.
According to chief councillor of the coastal Gitxaala, Clarence Innis, the authority will provide environmental oversight of the whole area, not just focusing on a single project.
“Pacific Northwest LNG was one of them,” said Innis of the impetus behind the group initiative. “There are so many proposals for development in this area that we had to come together because we were starting to get overwhelmed by it.”
The Kitselas has already signed a project development agreement with Prince Rupert Gas Transmission owner TransCanada, but the other Terrace First Nation, the Kitsumkalum, have not.

LOCAL ARTIST Ja-mie Nole recently do-nated one of her limited edition prints to Park Centre, an office of the Terrace Child Develop-ment Centre (CDC).
The print is of her painting the “Pregnant Frog Woman,” which she was inspired to cre-ate when she was ex-pecting her son.
Jamie, who is from the Tahltan Nation and Nisga’a Nation under the Frog clan, says her lifelong passion is to become an artist.
“I feel a sense of identity when I work with First Nations Fine Art,” she says. “This is what my ancestors did to tell their stories, so now I will tell many sto-ries and share them with the world.”
Jamie has been in-volved with the Ter-race CDC programs for pregnancy support, par-ent support and Speech and Language Support for the past three years and wanted to give back to the centre with her artwork.
Since Jamie could pick up a pencil, her parents encouraged her natural artistic talent.
She was provided with her own work space, including a desk with all the supplies she ever needed and a lot of praise. At seven years old, she began to learn Northwest Coast art with her art teacher Huey Carlick.
In high school, she learned the strict rules of First Nations Fine Arts through Todd Ste-phens. She graduated in 2011 with the help of her very supportive teachers who always pushed her to do her best and never give up on her dream of becom-ing a successful artist.
Being naturally gifted, Jamie is well on her way to being recog-nized on an internation-al level. She has sold prints of the “Pregnant Frog Woman” to people in North America and Australia.
Locally, she won a contest designing a community mural with
the Terrace Nisga’a Office and was later contracted to paint the mural.
She has her own
website, injanesartlife.com, and her painting has been commented on in Off the Wall, a blog by Bruce Byfield.
Jamie plans to continue her education in First Nations Fine Art this fall at Northwest Community College.

■ Where the wind blowsCANSAIL KIDS glide around Lakelse Lake at Furlong Bay Aug. 13. The week-long camp saw certified instructors teach sailing skills, water safety and dryland games to youths ages six to 14. Crown
leaves townTHE TERRACE Crown counsel office has said goodbye to a longtime prosecutor.
Barry Zacharias has gone to Prince Rupert to take a position as administrative Crown in the local Crown office there as of August 4.
His duties include making sure the office fol-lows the policies of the criminal justice branch of the provincial government as well as some work prosecuting in court and ensuring the other three prosecutors in the office are all scheduled into court.
“It was an interesting opportunity and I like the north. It’s an opportunity to move form one office I really like and that’s been very good to me and move to an office where I also know the people and I thought it was a good fit for me,” said Zacharias.
His last day here was July 31 after 15 years here.Zacharias came north as a family lawyer in 2000
with L’axghels legal aid community native office for two-and-a-half years, opened an office of his own for a year and moved to the crown office where he spent 12 years.
The position in Prince Rupert became avail-able after judge Seidemann became a senior judge, which means he only works part-time and the ad-ministrative Crown there Dwight Stewart was ap-pointed a part-time judge to cover the rest of the time.
“I do miss Terrace. We made a lot of very good friends,” he said, adding Terrace was very good to him adn his wife.
“I’m hoping for very good things in Prince Ru-pert.”
IN CLAUDETTE Sandecki’s column “How do so many of us not carry a wallet?” in the July 22 issue of the Terrace Standard, there was an error in the amount of the fine for driving without a valid driver’s licence.
The correct amount of the fine is $276, not $138.

Not part of the alliance is Coast Tsimshian First Nation Lax Kw’alaams, who has so far turned down a benefits agreement from the provincial government and Pacific Northwest LNG owner Petronas.
The authority said in a letter on their web-site that they look for-ward to engaging Lax Kw’alaams, Canada, the province and project proponents to “find a path forward that pro-tects the environmental legacy with which we are entrusted.”
Bevan said he and the other authority lead-ers will pool their staff to consult with Petro-nas and TransCanada as they develop their project plans, as well as voice concerns dur-ing the ongoing federal review of Pacific North-west LNG.
But central to the au-thority’s goal is keeping “good relationships go-ing with industry,” Be-van said.
“We were really happy about working together, it’s really nice when we can work to-gether with other Tsim-shian,” he said.
Other Tsimshian na-tions who are not mem-bers include Hartley Bay and Klemtu south of Prince Rupert.
“Right now we have Lax Kw’alaams has not made a decision yet, and we respect their process. We keep the door open for others. It’s not all of us,” said Bevan. “There is Klem-tu, and we are not quite certain on Hartley Bay either. Those two are in-terested.”
The area proposed for two major LNG plants near the mouth of the Skeena is a major fishing area for many Tsimshian nations and an important waypoint in the development and migration of the area’s salmon stocks relied upon by recreational and food fisheries and many animals.
A similar alliance between Tsimshian groups was formed in the past called The Northwest Stewardship Society, but that group addressed individual and not collective en-vironmental concerns, said Bevan.
“The Northcoast Stewardship society
was one of them, we have always had a col-lective voice but this is the first time we’ve gone project specific. I think in general we have
always had a voice... but now it’s the Tsim-shian Nation’s concern, which we feel is stron-ger in the long run.”
Bevan said the au-
thority is acting in the interest of all people who want to make sure there is oversight of ma-jor projects.
“I was in the air-
port recently and this guy came up to me and said, hey, I used to work in Terrace and I am in Penticton now, and I just wanted to say
I am glad you guys are there watching the en-vironment for us with the development, be-cause it is a beautiful area and I would hate to
see it get destroyed. So, when I hear comments like that, it’s nice to see people coming forward and thanking us,” said Bevan.

New UNBC First Nations studiesBy JACKIE LIEUWEN
THE UNIVERSITY of Northern B.C. (UNBC) is offering new First Nations programs this fall.
The program is joint between Terrace and Quesnel campuses, and offers a four year Bachelor of Arts in First Nations Studies, or a one-year certi� cate in First Nations Studies.
Dr. Phil Burton, northwest campus Regional Chair, says part of the university goal in developing this program is growing scholarship and research capacity to address the concerns of First Nations in northern B.C.
“With the richness of First Nations cultures across the northern BC region, it is imperative that we better serve and empower those communities,” he said.
The courses offered in the program focus on First Nations culture and emphasize skills needed to deal with Aboriginal contemporary issues, government relations, communication, problem solving, critical thinking, teamwork, information management, and personal management.
UNBC President Dr. Daniel Weeks said in a news release that the program is also to raise up leaders.
“Students enrolled in First Nations Studies programming gain the knowledge they need to become leaders in their communities,” he said.
Courses offered at the Terrace campus this year are about learning strategies, Canadian native literature, and Tsimshian culture. Offered by video conference from Quesnel is Introduction to First Nations of Canada and a course about research writing.
Graduates from the program are well quali� ed to work in � elds such as band and tribal council administration, traditional use researcher, cultural affairs of� cer, or multiculturalism educator.
Burton says interested students need to apply as soon as possible for the program.

City moves to rehabilitate old mill site
JOSH MASSEY PHOTO
TERRACE CITY council passed a resolution last week to start investigating the cost of cleaning up land off Kenney St.
By JOSH MASSEY
THE CITY is calling on residents to have their say in the coming Parks Master Plan through an online survey and open house.
Last week the city announced it hired planning consultants Urban Systems from Vancouver to start the parks plan which will outline the future of rec-reation areas in Terrace.
A city release says “the study includes parkland, park design, trail types and locations, sports � elds, play areas, dog parks, courts, youth parks, commu-nity gardens, uses of parks, winter activities, main-tenance, and management of natural areas.”
A key part of the parks plan is community con-sultation to put towards of� cial recommendations.
Prize draws are offered for the � rst residents to respond to the online survey. An open house is to be held Sept. 15 and more information is available through the city. “Once the community input from the survey and workshops has been collected, a draft Master Plan will be prepared,” said the city release. “This will come back to the community for review once it is complete. The City of Terrace en-courages residents and users of the city’s recreation facilities to participate in the plan.”
Planning for future and current parks was a cen-tral part of Mayor Carol Leclerc’s election platform. She said that promoting recreational areas is part of it. New parks were suggested by residents such as Barb Tetz, who wants a park on the city-owned lot at the bottom of Lanfear Hill on the east side.
Parks study toengage citizens
BY JOSH MASSEY
THE CITY has decided to move forward with a plan to seek environ-mental clearance for three parcels of city-owned land just west of Kenney St. It is part of its Keith Estates Neigh-bourhood Concept that aims to transform the site of an old sawmill and log yard into a mixed use area.
Council passed an in camera resolution July 27 to proceed with the initial work to get an environmental certi� cate from the province so they can sell or otherwise use the land.
One parcel is located at 3111 Kenney St. and is 4.4 acres in size, another is on 5014 Keith and is one acre and the third is at 5020
Keith and is just under 10 acres.
The last tenant to lease part of this land from the city was log-ging company YaoRun Wood in 2013/2014.
Also in July the city sold a fourth parcel at the Keith and Kenney intersection to a Toyota dealership for $1 million, and the city will not have to clean up that one.
The three parcels they have now decided to rehabilitate surround the one that will be for the Toyota dealership.
“We are in the process of having the existing environmental assessments for the property reviewed and a report prepared outlining the remaining
scope of work and a cost estimate for what needs to be done to achieve a Certi� cate of Compliance on the properties,” said a statement from the city.
“Once we have that information we will put out a Request for Proposals for the remediation work.”

AN AMBITIOUS plan is under-way to replace fish habitat dam-aged during site preparation for a planned large liquefied natural gas (LNG) project near Kitimat.
But the new habitat won’t be anywhere near the planned Kiti-mat LNG project at Bish Cove in the Douglas Channel off the Kiti-mat Arm.
Instead, Chevron, a 50 per cent partner in Kitimat LNG, wants to construct new habitat 35 kilo-metres north across the Kitimat River and up the Wedeene Forest Service Road at Cecil Ponds and Cecil Creek.
Damage to Bish Cove habitat is acknowledged in a report which outlines the compensation project, describing it as an “unavoidable loss” during work there between 2011 and late 2014.
The damage was authorized by federal fisheries officials on the condition that the habitat was then replaced.
The plan is to connect Cecil Ponds to Cecil Creek together with channels, said Gillian Robin-son from Chevron.
“There is [currently] no access from the ponds to the creeks,” Robinson explained of the chosen location. “We are building chan-nels so that juveniles can winter there because the ponds are warm-er than the creeks which leads to
better survival.”Cecil Creek connects to the
Kitimat River and then to the ocean so that, in effect, Chevron wants to build a transit route from the ponds through the creek to the ocean.
The site is expected to develop habitat for Pacific salmon (coho), rainbow and cuttroat trout, and Dolley Varden char, and such a project is common for industrial projects around water, said Rob-inson.
Chevron has applied for a li-cence from the provincial Minis-try of Forests, Lands, and Natural Resources for use of the land, a process which just wrapped up last month.
Chevron’s application and de-velopment plan for the man-made fish channels are available to the public and comments received were taken into account, said pro-vincial government official Greig Bethel.
The land license was approved in late July, but it is still subject to approval by environmental au-thorities because of the changes to the water system these human-constructed fish channels will cre-ate.
If the plan goes ahead, Chev-ron will pay the provincial author-ity 7.5 per cent of the land value in rent on the 106 hectare section each year for the next ten years.
Robinson said that, after their
application is approved, “we will begin to design the project [this year] and next year we will final-ize the design and begin to build depending on the weather, the sea-son, and if it is a sensitive time for habitat.”
Chevron’s application states that survey work to determine if the Cecil Ponds area is suitable will begin by digging test pits and monitoring water levels. The Cecil Ponds area includes three ponds and the neighbouring Cecil Creek which will be connected by channels.
Construction at the site is cur-rently scheduled to take place over six to eight weeks July to August of 2016. About 2,500 square me-ters of forest are expected to be cleared and it is possible that the access road will be surfaced with gravel to facilitate heavy equip-ment access to the site.
The project plan states that if the Cecil Ponds area proves un-suitable, the company will devel-op habitat around Cecil Creek by building a groundwater channel and that process that would “result in a larger area disturbed” accord-ing to the document.
After the project is completed, Chevron’s document asserts that the Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada requires them to monitor the site for five years af-ter the project is completed, but Chevron says they plan to visit the
site one day per year to check up on it until 2021.
A separate environmental as-sessment was done for the Bish Cove project, but it is not affiliated with this new project.
The Bish Cove area fish habitat damage will affect Pacific salmon and other species of fish which call the inlet home.
Federal fisheries officials ex-plained in a statement that the fish harmed are a fisheries resource, saying that “the [Kitimat LNG] project will potentially impact fish habitat that support commercial, recreational, and aboriginal fisher-
ies in Kitimat Arm ... The authori-zation includes measures to avoid, mitigate as well as compensate/offset these impacts to ensure the ongoing productivity and sustain-ability of the fisheries resources.”
Kitimat LNG is one of two large planned LNG projects for the Kitimat area but Chevron and partner Woodside Energy of Australia have yet to make a final investment decision.
The project does have the support of the Haisla Nation which will receive revenues and taxes based on leasing the Bish Cove location.

ROB HART’S right hip has a titanium ball due to surgery, which means he beeps when he goes through airport security. He recently missed a flight because there was no male security officer to do a pat down.
He seeks answer to airport discriminationA LOCAL man was promised an explanation by federal authorities after he missed his flight to a family wedding and holiday because there wasn’t a male security employee on duty to do a pat down that day.
Mostly Rob Hart says he wants to make sure that what happened to him doesn’t happen to anyone else.
Hart wasn’t surprised when the metal detector went off in the Northwest Regional Airport’s screening area the morning of July 27.
He had surgery in February 2014 to partially replace his hip and it was common for airport detectors to pick up the new titanium ball which now fits into his normal socket.
The screening procedure then is to do a physical pat down but that couldn’t be done because there was no male security employee on duty.
That meant Hart was refused screening clearance and subsequently his flight to Vancouver where he
was to take a connecting flight to Ontario.
Hart said he suggest-ed a female screener could do the pat down in the presence of his wife or an RCMP offi-cer could do it, but the ideas were rejected.
Hart was to fly Air Canada and its airport employees were as taken aback as he was of the situation, he said.
“They checked with their supervisor and they said the policy was that a female could do the pat down but the screening people said ‘no.’”
“I might understand that they didn’t have a male on duty, but what I don’t understand is that there was no Plan B,”said Hart.
“I think what bothered me is the mindless approach. There was no attempt at problem solving; never any recognition we’re putting a citizen out here.”
Airport screening across Canada is the responsibility of the federal Canadian Air Transport Security
Authority and in places such as Terrace, the service is contracted out to a private company.
Hart said screeners told him and others that any cost to him of having to rebook a flight was his problem and not theirs.
Screeners gave him a CATSA contact card with a toll-free number should he wished to make a complaint.
Hart’s wife did go ahead without him and Air Canada rebooked him on a later flight the same day when a male screener was on duty.
But that meant he missed his original connecting flight in Vancouver, had to wait for six hours and then take a red-eye back east.
“Air Canada said they’d try to upgrade me for that flight, but it was so full I was surprised I got on at all. I would have flown baggage,” said Hart.
He estimates he’s out $100 in addition to having to wait in Vancouver and spend a sleepless night on a red-eye flight.
Just back from his holiday, Hart called the CATSA toll-free line only to discover Air Canada had already contacted the agency and it had an open file.
“I was told to expect to hear something the end of this week or next week,” he said Aug. 13.
“What this is is a small town issue. You wouldn’t find this in a larger town where there are more security personnel on duty. But that just means you need to find a way to do security in smaller town airports,” Hart said.
“It’s their job to ensure there is security; not to impede someone on their journey.”
A section on the CATSA website concerning pat downs does provide details on how they are conducted.
“A physical search: Is always done by a screening officer of the same gender as the passenger,” reads one passage. The section is silent on whether a search is allowed by a person of the opposite gender.
TERRACE PROVIN-CIAL Court saw several onvictions in the past weeks.
Here are a few of them.
Kristopher Barnett entered into a peace bond on a charge of as-sault and for 12 months will follow court-or-dered conditions start-ing Aug. 11 of this year.
If he breaches the conditions, he will have to pay a $300 fine.
A peace bond means he agreed that a person has reason to fear him without agreeing to what happened.
In general, a peace bond is not a criminal conviction so after it’s ended, it won’t show up on the person’s re-cord.
And Benjamin Beru-be received a suspended sentence with a proba-tion order of 12 months with conditions on one charge of theft under $5,000.
He was ordered to pay a victim fine sur-charge of $100 due Feb. 1, 2016.

BULKLEY VALLEY NDP MP incumbent Nathan Cullen could re-ceive as much as 65 per cent of the vote in the Oct. 19 federal election, suggests an opinion-poll tracking website.
The site, www.three-hundredeight.com, pre-dicts Cullen’s chances of being re-elected are 98 per cent, the highest of any NDP candidate run-ning in B.C.’s 42 ridings.
The website tracks and then analyzes re-sults from 10 com-panies doing election opinion polls and the projections are updated regularly.
Cullen received a clear majority of sup-port in the 2011 election with 55 per cent of the vote, compared to the 34.5 per cent for Con-servative Clay Harmon. Liberal Kyle Warwick had 3.6 per cent, Green
Roger Benham had 3.1 per cent, Rod Taylor from the Christian Heri-tage Party had 2.96 per cent, and Maggie Braun from Canadian Action had 0.47 per cent of the vote.
First elected in 2004 with 31.7 per cent of the vote, Cullen’s share of the vote has climbed ever since – to 48.33 per cent in 2006 and 49.84 per cent in 2008.
With prediction that Cullen could receive as much as 66 per cent of the vote in this rid-ing, www.threehun-dredeight.com also predicts Conservative candidate Tyler Nesbitt may run second with 21.8 per cent.
Farther back are the Liberals at 7.9 per cent and the Greens at 3.9 per cent.
The www.threehun-dredeight.com website
is maintained by Eric Grenier who supplies analysis for the CBC. Riding projections are based on the results tak-en from the last day of polling and not on pro-jections of actual voting on the election day.
The website calcu-lates that NDP will also win the Cariboo – Prince George riding and that the Conservatives will win the Prince George – Peace River – Northern Rockies riding.
In both of those cas-es, the margin between the winner and second place finisher is closer than for the Skeena – Bulkley Valley riding.
Across B.C., the website suggests the NDP will win 23 out of the 42 seats up for election with the Liberals taking 11, the Conservatives 7 and the Greens 1.
In the 2011 election, when there were 36 seats in B.C., the Con-servatives came out on
top with 21 followed by 12 for the NDP, 2 for the Liberals and 1 for the Green party.
Online poll-tracking predicts NDP win in Skeena-Bulkley
TERRACE’S CRIME rate and crime severity index decreased for the second year in a row in 2014. THAT IS in contrast to the overall provin-cial numbers which increased after sev-eral years of dropping steadily.
However, the crime rate and crime sever-
ity in Terrace is well above the provincial average.
The crime rate measures the vol-ume of crime re-ported to the police per 100,000 popula-tion, while the crime severity index mea-sures both the volume and severity of crimes reported to the police.
The crime sever-ity index includes all criminal code viola-tions, including traf-fic and drug violations and federal statutes.
That index dropped in the Terrace mu-nicipal area by 11.72 per cent. In the Ter-race rural area, which is Thornhill and ar-eas outside the city, it
dropped by 22.09 per cent, according to the 2014 police reported crime statistics re-leased recently from Statistics Canada.
That’s in compari-son to the province, which saw its crime rate increase by 2.39 per cent and the crime severity index increase by 3 per cent from
2013 to 2014. Looking at the
2014 crime rate and crime severity index per 100,000 people, Terrace municipal was 17,945.06 and 18,650.76, respec-tively. That compares to the province which was 7,598.55 and 7,949.41 respectively.
Other areas in the
north similar to Ter-race in population also saw their crime sever-ity indexes and crime rate decrease, includ-ing Prince Rupert, Li-sims/Nass Valley, Kiti-mat and even Williams Lake, although they all were also higher than the province.
Ranked with other B.C. cities of a simi-lar size to Terrace, the Terrace municipal area got third on the crime rate and crime sever-ity index, after Prince Rupert and Williams Lake.
Prince Rupert mu-
nicipal ranked second with 19,214.54 and 19,774.42 per 100,000 population. Williams Lake municipal got first with 27,276.06 and 28,220.41.
Lisims/Nass Val-ley ranked fourth at 11,960.99 and 12,217.66 and Kiti-mat was in fifth place at 9,328.18 and 10,229.41.
The Terrace rural area is sixth and is the first to have a crime rate below the BC av-erage crime rate at 7,190.5 in comparison to BC’s 7,599.
Terrace crime rate drops for second year

In Loving Memory Of
Lorrie Arnold-SmithOctober 22, 1955 - August 25, 2009
“The reality is thatyou will grieve forever.You will not ‘get over’
the loss of a loved one;you will learn to live with it.
You will heal andyou will rebuild
yourself around the lossyou have suffered.
You will be whole again,but you will never be the same.Nor should you be the same,
nor would you want to.”(Elizabeth Kubler-Ross & John Kessler)
It’s impossible to put into words how much we love and miss you.
Lydia, Brett & Marisa
Norah LeCleirMarch 31, 1925 - August 9, 2015
A ship sails and I stand watching tillShe fades on the horizon
and someone at my side says“She is gone”
Gone? Gone where? gone from my sight that is all.
She is just as large now as when I last saw her.Her diminished size and total loss
from my sight is in me,not her.
And just at that moment,When someone says she is gone
There are others who are watching hercoming over their horizon.
And other voices take up a glad shout -“THERE SHE COMES!”
It is with mixed emotions that we say goodbye to Mom and Gram.Norah is at peace and has gone on to be with Jim.She will be missed by her family Larry (Yvonne), Brian, Wayne (Mary).Grandchildren Philip (Melissa), Terry, James and Stephanie (Kevin). Great grandson Micheal.
There will be no service as requested.

AN ALLIANCE of northwestern municipalities formed in
2014 to push for a revenue sharing agreement with the pro-
vincial government for a cut of profits from resource devel-
opment in the area has been turned down – at least for the
time being.
The Northwest Resource Benefits Alliance – which rep-
resents the communities in the regional districts of Kitimat-
Stikine, Bulkley-Nechako and Skeena-Queen Charlotte –
has been seeking an amount in the hundreds of millions of
dollars to be redistributed to the area for infrastructure and
other upgrades. The communities would be accommodated
under a single sharing agreement.
In a letter from the Ministry of Community, Sport and
Cultural Development dated April 22 and addressed to Re-
gional District of Kitimat-Stikine chair Stacey Tyers, the
government laid out the reason for rejecting a request for
$1,131 million for planning and delaying any agreement.
“The tone was a surprise. It was exactly the opposite of
the previous correspondence, but we are still hopeful that we
can go back to the table and talk to them,” said Tyers, adding
that the alliance has already sent another letter “asking on a
political level to meet again and try to get on track.”
The money the group asked for was needed to do neces-
sary legwork to secure a wide-reaching deal, she said.
“To actually bring together all three regional districts is
incredibly expensive and we would have to do that a couple
times just to make sure that everybody is on the same page,”
said Tyers.
Local governments and the provincial government have
already spent money planning for the agreement which they
hope will be like the one the government has with industrial-
based communities in the northeast called Fair Share.
According to the government, it is too soon for a revenue-
sharing agreement to be signed and they are unwilling to
commit more money for the initial planning at this point.
“It is in our view, premature for the province to consider
entering into any agreements that would see those revenues
dedicated before they are realized,” says the government let-
ter. “Future benefits from LNG development have not been
incorporated into provincial revenue forecasts,” it continues.
However Tyers said that the agreement would be based on
new money in other sectors, not just the proposed liquefied
natural gas industry.
Despite 18 export plants proposed and 12 export licenses
granted, not one of the gas companies has made up their
mind to go ahead with their coastal liquefaction plants.
“Mining, forestry, any resource development in our area
really. We are looking at new revenue, we are not asking
them for a piece of the revenue they currently have, we rec-
ognize that is committed elsewhere, but we are looking at
new resource revenue,” said Tyers.

AS PEOPLE remember and mark
the 70th anniversary of the liberation
of the Netherlands by the Canadians
and other Second World War events,
a part of that remembrance has lived
in Terrace for more than 40 years.
Yellow tulips given to veter-
ans associations across Canada as
thanks from the Dutch government
for the liberation of Holland have
been growing in Evelyn Pousette's
garden on the bench since 1974.
And before that, they grew in her
garden downtown where she and her
husband lived before that.
She says they just keep growing
year after year.
The exact year they were given
to Canada wasn't known to her but
she believes it may have been 1970
which was the 25th anniversary of
the end of the Second World War.
Way back before she and her hus-
band were married, they went out for
a drive one day and stopped at the
top of Lanfear hill in the spot where
their property is now, but which was
just vegetation and land without any
houses back then.
She stood at the edge of the hill
and her now-husband took a photo
of her.On the back she wrote “I want to
live here someday” then put it away
in a drawer and forgot all about it.

Hockey championship drive continuesBy Margaret SpeirsTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
TERRACE - The drive to bring an aboriginal hockey champion-ship here moved closer with the committee struck to make the bid asking for council to waive the fees of renting the arenas for the event.In addition to bringing the teams and fans here from around the region and country, the cham-pionship serves as a way to build relationships between the aborig-inal communities and the city, showcase northwest aboriginal culture and provide role models for youths, said councillor Brian Downie to a city council Com-mittee of the Whole Meeting May 4.
And since the games will be
webcast, they will bring nation-al viewers online to see them, he said.During dead time between games and periods, videos show-ing coverage of the area could be added for viewers to see.Members of the committee for the championship bid came to give their support and talk to council too. That included Cal Albright from Kermode Friend-ship Society, Joe Bevan for Kit-selas, and Yulanda Leighton from CFNR.
To rent the main arena and the Hidber arena for the sev-en days of the championships, the facility rental fees would be about $25,000 and ice installa-tion about $30,000.The committee was request-ing that council and the city
waive the facility rental fees, said Downie.The cost to host could be $100,000 although it will prob-ably be in excess of that, said Downie.
And if Terrace was selected to host the championships, then $50,000 of that would come from the Aboriginal Sport, Recreation and Physical Activity Partners Council, said Downie.Councillor Sean Bujtas said it was an important event to grow aboriginal youth involvement in sports here. Councillor Stacey Tyers said a concern was that First Na-tion youths be able to go to the games since sometimes fees can keep the people who would ben-efit most from attending because they can’t afford to pay.
Setting up screens to watch the games in the park would be a good idea, she said.Committee member Yulanda Leighton said for the Meet the Canucks event, the free tickets were given out so lower income youths would get them and Ker-mode Friendship Society gave them out to its clientele too.That could be done again to be sure that the youths who would most benefit would get to go to the event, she said. Councillor James Cordeiro made the recommendation that the City of Terrace support the 2017 National Aboriginal Hock-ey Championships by waiving the arena rental fees.A formal resolution will be made at the next council meeting when council accepts the report.

Competitive soccer for northBy JACKIE LIEUWEN
A NORTHWEST soccer enthusiast wants to start a professional develop-ment soccer league in the area.
Lawrence Shanoss, from Git-segukla and now living in Terrace, wants 10 adult men’s and 10 women’s soccer teams from Prince Rupert to Smithers to be part of the new league.
The league would be a northern division of the Pacific Coast Soc-cer League, an outdoor adult league based in southern B.C. that develops players for provincial, national and major league soccer teams.
“This is my dream. I’ve always been a sports enthusiast,” Shanoss said.
“I just love the young people, and that’s who I am doing this for... we have so much talent in this region.”
Shanoss wants to meet this Sep-tember with community leaders and soccer-program heads in the region, and then kick off the league in April 2016.
League president David Collard says the league is eager to expand into the north, but needs teams to of-ficially apply by December in order to move forward.
“We are in a position to move re-ally quickly once we have this com-mitment from the northern region,” Collard said.
He says the league needs a mini-mum of six committed men’s and six
women’s teams of players between the ages of 18 and 23 in order to launch a northern division.
Blaine Kluss, director of the Terrace Youth Soccer Association (TYSA), says starting this up is “a brilliant idea.”
There are no highly competitive leagues like it and the only adult soc-cer league is moderately competitive, he said.
Kluss said he has no doubt there would be enough players for a Ter-race team.
“Terrace has enough soccer play-ers in that age range to put a competi-tive team together,” he said.
Still, it might be difficult to as-semble six men’s and six women’s teams in the north by December sim-ply because communities are small, he added.
“It is all about leadership. You need to have strong individuals in each community to put those teams together.”
Danu Craig, the Haisla Nation’s recreation coordinator and a Terrace resident, says a northern division of the southern soccer league would give TYSA players a chance to fur-ther develop their skills.
“I feel there is definitely enough men to put a team together for this league... I’d play for it. My friends would,” Craig said, adding that soccer has been growing in popularity here.
Skeena River Challenge revived for dedicated riders By JACKIE LIEUWEN
Cooler weather and just a little humidity made for good racing conditions for a revived Skeena River Challenge bicycle race from Prince Rupert to Terrace Aug. 9, says its winner.
“There was no head wind or tail wind so that was nice too,” said race winner Peter Krause, a former Terrace resident who now lives in Smithers.
The race was a bit different this year, due to low participation. The seven riders stayed together for most of the ride, only breaking into a race for the last 22 kilometres.
Krause said at the Shames Hill on Hwy16, he and two other riders from Smithers broke away from the group to race for the end.
“We rode together until we got to the bottom of the hill to the college... About half way up the hill from there I attacked,” Krause
said. “That’s when I gave it my
kicker and broke away from the other two guys.”
Krause finished in 4:52:55, his 15th win in the 30-year history of the race.
The once-annual Skeena River Challenge has an uncertain future, and it was replaced last year and in 2013 with a gran fondo between Terrace and Rosswood and back.
Compared to a race such as the Skeena River Challenge, a gran fondo is more of a tour which encourages participation by all levels of cyclists using any type of bicycle.
It also allows riders choose how far they wish to travel, said Bruce Martindale, treasurer of the Terrace Off Road Cycling Association (TORCA) which ran the race.
TORCA and the riders vote year-by-year on which races to run
each year, and tours like the gran fondo are growing in popularity, said Martindale.
That there were only seven racers in the Skeena River Challenge this year possibly because of its length or that TORCA couldn’t round up enough volunteers to expand the event to include recreational riders, he said.
He added that the Skeena River Challenge was staged again this year for the cyclists who missed the scenic annual challenge.
“They are the dedicated racers, they will show up no matter what the weather, no matter when. So we were doing something for them,” said Martindale.
Meanwhile, TORCA is staging two more races for mountain bikers and Martindale anticipates a good turn out for both.
The Wild Wild Descent is set for August 23 and the Flathead Flatout is on September 13.

It hadn’t occurred to me that there might be chinook salmon in Kleanza Creek, but then why shouldn’t there be? The stream hosts coho, pinks,
steelhead, and I wouldn’t be at all sur-prised if a few dog salmon spawned in its cold, clear water. Even a run of sockeye is a possibility. The creek is a small version of the Zymoetz River, which is home to all of those species.
As I watched the spawning pair, it struck me that there would most likely be more upstream, and if there were, it was likely that there would be trout or char, ly-ing in wait for eggs kicked free during the spawning exertions of the larger fish. I set out on the trail to find out if this was so.
Upstream of the bridge, the river is steep and the channel narrow for quite a way, thanks to the cribbing laid to pro-tect the pipeline right-of-way. There are pockets in this fast water but the bottom is mainly made up of large cobble, hardly conducive to spawning even for the larg-est of the salmon species. Well inside the park, the pitch of the river lessens. This is where I slipped on my polarized shades to examine deeper, larger pockets from the trail, which is ideally located some six or so metres above the stream.
Because the valley is so steep and nar-row, the river is almost always in shade, affording an excellent view of the bot-tom. I examined four pockets that had features which appeared identical to those
of the pool beneath the Highway Bridge, ex-cept for the fact that the water flowing over them was just slightly faster. There were no fish and no evidence that fish had been dig-ging. August is a good time to find spawning chinook. Was the pair I saw the last to spawn in the creek that year? Doubtful; if this was the case, I should have seen a carcass or carcasses and recently dug redds. Were the fish I spotted the only spawners in the lower river? Possible; cohoes and steelhead climb over the falls and the cataracts. I’ve seen steelhead some 50 kilometres up-stream below the outlet of Kleanza Lake. Chinook salmon are strong fish fully ca-pable of a similar feat, and there is ample spawning habitat scattered throughout that considerable length of river.
This exercise started me pondering the act of counting fish. If the water conditions are good, counting the larger salmonids from helicopters can be quite effective. I’ve had the good fortune to do some of this on the Zymoetz River, where chinook stand out dramatically against the light co-
loured bottom, but the really deep pools are im-penetrable.
Jim Culp has prob-ably done more fish counting from the air in this area than anyone. In the low, clear wa-ter of early spring, Jim says that overwintering Zymoetz steelhead are highly visible from the air, and he believes that fairly accurate popula-tion estimates can be ob-tained that way. The lim-iting factor is money of course. It’s well known that the steelhead of the Zymoetz spawn below Serb Creek and other
places in the upper portion of the water-shed, and it’s highly likely that they utilize the areas around Treasure, Mulvane, and Nogold Creeks as well. To assess the en-tire river would be costly, especially for a provincial government that disingenuous-ly claims to care for wilderness and wild things, but treats the people charged with that responsibility with contempt.
Jim and I have been counting chinook in Thomas Creek on foot for a few years now. Since the salmon can’t ascend the falls lo-cated approximately a kilometre upstream of the Thomas Creek/Clore confluence, it
is easy to walk a small stream with a coun-ter and count fish, provided, of course, one takes this inventory when the fish are at the peak of their spawning.
Simpson Creek, lower down on the Zy-moetz is even more easily assessed since the spawning area to the impasse at the falls is about 800 metres. On larger sys-tems, extrapolation is necessary, and the counts are sketchy at best.
When counting coho, fish with a pen-chant for seeking out the smallest streams to spawn in, accurate assessments become really problematic. I’ve been on coho counts of the Lakelse River fish with Jim and the late Mike Hayworth on a couple of occasions and got a whiff of how complex an undertaking that is, thanks to the dark bottom of the river.
And what about the unjustly neglected dog salmon, increasingly rare and spawn-ing in forgotten places? Here is a species whose numbers are vital to their survival, yet there is, to my knowledge, nobody col-lecting data on them with the possible ex-ception of the Kitimat hatchery staff.
Ultimately, counting fences, like the one at Babine, the ones on the Kitwanga, and the one DFO had on Kleanza Creek half a century ago, are the best way to get a handle on fish populations. Since popula-tion abundances are vital to understanding each species and undertaking appropriate management actions, it’s surprising that so few streams in Skeena have fences.

Seniors golf tourneyBy JACKIE LIEUWEN
SIXTY-TWO GOLFERS enjoyed a great Se-niors Open Golf Tournament in Terrace Au-gust 8-9.
“Everybody had lots of fun,” said Austin Turner, pro-shop associate at the Skeena Val-ley Golf & Country Club.
“Weather was not great. It was kind of wet out the first day, but on Sunday it was better,” he said.
Of the 62 participants, 20 to 25 were from out of town.
Turner says those numbers are average for the annual 18-hole tournament, but they would love to have more people out.
Two winners were Kim Haworth, with a two-day low gross score of 156, and Mona Nester, with a two-day low net score of 134.
If organized, northern division teams would play 18 games from April to August. Then the top three men’s and women’s teams would travel south to play top southern teams for respective league cups.
Shanoss says that long-term, he hopes to use the league as a platform to apply for grants for improved playing fields in the region.
His ultimate goal is to raise enough money to build a 2,600-seat soccer
stadium in Terrace.Collard said the Pacific Coast Soccer
League would help promote the sport if a northern division is launched.
“It would be wonderful for that region,” he said.

Council to support climate change warnings at gas pumpsBy JOSH MASSEY
LAST MONDAY council heard from delegate Matt Hulse, BC Campaign Director for Our Horizon.
Hulse was visiting from Victoria where he leads an initiative to have stickers containing awareness-raising images and text placed on gas pump handles to remind those fuelling their vehicles of the growing impact of climate change and the need for alternatives to gas-powered vehicles.
Hulse said that North Vancouver was the � rst municipality to incorporate the stickers, which also require special covers for the gas pump handle.
He said it only cost that municipality around $1,000 for 66 gas handles.
Council voted unanimously in favour of a resolution introduced by councillor Lynne Christiansen to have staff look into the cost and feasibility of paying for such a sticker program within the city.
The other resolution was to support a larger resolution to be introduced at the Union of British Columbia Municipalities this fall calling on the province to support and pay for the program.
Only councillor James Cordeiro voted against the second resolution, saying it was premature to support a UBCM resolution.
“It has provided no explanation for the delay in this application, which ought to have been made in March 2014, and in any event prior to the setting down of a trial in this mat-ter,” referring to the month and year when police were named in the civil lawsuit.
Now the trial will take longer as expert witnesses will have to be called to provide evidence about “both stan-dard of care and causation evidence,” continued the hospital.
And Wright’s “injuries and sequel-
ae are not yet know, making it dif� -cult to determine what experts will need to be retained, and evidence ob-tained from,” continued the response.
DeWit had replied to the RCMP application earlier and made similar points to the hospital’s reply.
A court date this week is set for Heideman to take the application to the justice in supreme court in Van-couver. He is asking to name the hos-pital as third party and for his legal costs to be paid by the hospital regard-less of the outcome of the application.
DRIVERS COULD see warnings such as these on gas pump handles here in future.
