Miners, Nisga’a strike deal

■ Going upAIDAN CARTER was just one of many people who participated in the Race to Shames bike race Sunday, June 1. The nearly 13 kilometre race, hosted by TORCA and My Mountain Co-op, saw bikers ride up the Shames Mountain road. Willie Muller got up the mountain first with Chris Gee close behind. A BBQ and prize giveaway at the Shames Mountain lodge followed the race, an event which also celebrated the completion of Bike to Work week and the Bike to Boogie fundraiser.
THE NISGA’A Lisims Govern-ment and the company which wants to build a molybdenum mine at Kitsault have reached a revenue sharing deal.
Avanti Mining already has pro-vincial environmental approval and is close to having the federal government give its approval as well, setting the stage for the com-pany to spend nearly $1 billion on a mine expected to produce ore for 14 years.
The deal, announced last week, is the first substantial commercial deal with a private sector company
negotiated by the Nisga’a Lisims Government since it signed a land claims treaty with the federal and provincial governments in 2000.
Included in the deal’s economic benefits is the provision for Avanti to pay the Nisga’a a net smelter royalty of up to two per cent based on prevailing molybdenum prices.
It also ends Nisga’a Lisims Government opposition to the project on environmental grounds.
That opposition had resulted in the Nisga’a filing federal and provincial court actions seeking an overturning of provincial envi-
ronmental approval. One of those court actions with the B.C. Su-preme Court was filed last July but was suspended last fall.
The deal does address Nisga’a environmental concerns revolv-ing around water quality and other matters.
The Kitsault area is not within Nisga’a lands as outlined in the 2000 agreement but it is within an area of interest in which the Nisga’a have an influence.
Molybdenum has several uses and its chief one is to strengthen steel.
Avanti is working on its final financing with German and South Korean lenders for the project which, when fully permitted, is scheduled to take about two years to build.
It has also been signing sales agreements with South Korean and German steel manufacturers.
When fully operational the mine is expected to employ more than 300 people and Avanti has committed itself to an extensive aboriginal hiring and business de-velopment program.
“We are pleased to have finally
reached an agreement with Avanti that will enable the project to pro-ceed while ensuring that our treaty rights are respected, and our na-tion’s environment is protected” said Mitchell Stevens, President of the Nisga’a Lisims Government.
“We wish to congratulate Avan-ti’s new executive team who ap-proached us with a sincere interest in addressing our concerns with the project, which we were then able to work through without de-lay,” he continued.

THE COMPANY in charge of cleaning up the former Ter-race Co-op site on the 4500 Block of Greig Ave. which the city wants to sell to a Calgary-based hotel company says it could take at least five years before environmental reclama-tion work is complete.
Last May the city signed a $877,500 purchase agreement with Superior Lodgings for the sale of the 2.8 acre parcel on which once sat a large shopping centre, garden centre and gas bar. When the complex closed in 1997 as a result of an economic downturn, the land was taken over by the national Federated Co-op and with it the responsibility for cleaning up the parcel.
Federated Co-op then sold the land to another individual under the condition that the Co-op would continue doing the environmental cleanup. This new owner then sold the land to the city for $1 million in 2005 under the same conditions.
Since then the city has received provincial grant money to study the contamination levels as part of the reclamation process. It demolished the Co-op complex several years ago as a step toward selling the property.
Federated Co-op environmental affairs director Trevor Carlson says his company is finishing the second part of a two-stage cleanup which involved onsite work followed by putting bacteria into the ground that would feed on leftover petrochemicals.
“It’s safe to say that what we are dealing with now are residual trace concentrations, we are not dealing with any kind of gross contamination. The lion’s share of that impact has been dealt with,” he said.
However, he predicts it will be about five years until the site is clean enough for the provincial environment ministry to grant a certificate of compliance.

D-DAY VETERAN Sandy Sandhals accepts a wreath from the Royal Canadian Legion on behalf of his comrades-in-arms Frederick Annett, Bill McRae, Rowly Purmal and Bob Goodvin.
By JOSH MASSEY
THE 70TH anniversary of D-Day, June 6, 1944, was noted Friday, June 6 at the cenotaph in front of city hall when five Terrace Second World War veterans who took part in the landings and the aftermath placed a wreath.
The five are to re-ceive a medal from the French govern-ment in recognition of their involvement in the Normandy landings marking the invasion of German-occupied France. It was a wa-tershed moment that tipped the balance of the war toward the Allies as thousands of troops braved enemy fire.
“We were too damned scared of get-ting killed to feel much of anything else,” said Fred Annett of the im-mediate days following the invasion.
Before the invasion, Annett had been help-ing set up. “I was on the
coast in England at the time. We were making runways for the planes. The road got clogged with vehicles and ar-moured cars.”
It was apparent that a massive attack was being prepared, said Annett.
Royal Canadian Le-gion Branch 13 presi-
dent Ray Hallock spoke at the event.
“They created a mo-ment that all Canadians can be proud of,” he said.

Rotating strikes enter third week
ANNA KILLEN PHOTOS
FROM FAR left, teachers at Skeena Middle School take to the picket line June 6, the second of two local rotating strike over the past two weeks; Skeena Middle School stu-dents were part of a provincial-wide stu-dent walkout held June 4, the only day rotating strikes were not scheduled last week. Students walked from school to the board office where some spent the morning rallying.
By ANNA KILLEN
THE COAST Mountains School District (CMSD) sees its third day of rotating strikes tomorrow, June 12, as the dispute between the prov-ince and the teachers’ union contin-ues. The BC Teachers’ Federation (BCTF) announced this week’s ro-tating strike schedule June 5 – it’s the third week rotating strikes have been held around the province.
But the teachers haven’t been the only ones demonstrating. Stu-dents across B.C. took part in a walkout last Wednesday, June 5. The walkout, which was largely organized and spread on social
media, aimed to call attention to the impact the ongoing dispute between the BCTF and the provin-cial bargaining arm, the BC Public School Employers’ Association, is having on students.
In Terrace, about 100 students from Caledonia Secondary School, Skeena Middle School, and Park-side walked out around 9 a.m. and headed to the school board of-fice on the corner of Kenney and Hwy16. Students said they were frustrated extra-curricular activi-ties, such as year-end dances and BC Summer Games practises, were cancelled or affected and that there wasn’t sufficient time to ask
for extra help from their teachers because of lockout provisions.
And June 6 marked the second day of rotating strikes for CMSD teachers, with Skeena Middle School teacher Anya Carrel ex-pressing her own frustration with the provincial government.
“The government hates us,” she said. “They’ve been out to trash and burn the system since they stripped our contract, what was that, 12 years ago? And we’ve been fighting them tooth and nail ever since.”
Earlier this year the BC Su-preme Court ruled that the prov-ince must restore class size and
composition language that was re-moved from teachers’ contracts in 2002, and pay the union $2 million in damages. The province has ap-pealed that ruling.
Carrel questions the govern-ment’s sincerity in discussing class size and composition. “They’ve put nothing on the table since the whole thing started,” she said, not-ing that the money the government is collecting during the lockout and job action would be enough to cov-er salary increases and reforms to class size and composition. “I think they just want to grind us down un-til we can’t fight any more.”
“Teachers are holding it all to-
gether and doing the best they can, but you know, the cracks are start-ing to show,” she continued.
Coast Mountains teachers held their first strike day on May 26. That same day the province began a phased lockout of teachers.
Teachers and the province can-not agree on wage increases and teachers are additionally pressing the province to lower class sizes and to provide more assistance for students with special needs.
Teachers voted earlier this week whether or not to move to a full-scale strike next week. That story can be found at www.terracestan-dard.com.

Brain awareOne resident’s journey raising awareness about head trauma
STAFF PHOTO
YVONNE NEILSEN holds up an educational poster related to her cause: the awareness and prevention of Acquired Brain Injury.
By YVONNE NEILSEN
I AM one of the people from Terrace you have heard about, one of several who have sustained what is called an Acquired Brain Injury (ABI).
In 1987 I was in a head-on car crash between Burns Lake and Houston. I was a passenger in the back seat of the car and sustained a severe brain injury to several parts of my brain, includ-ing stroke on right side, spi-nal cord injury (my back is fused with rods and clamps), foot drop, seat belt burn and other problems.
A traumatic brain injury is damage to the brain after an incident or an illness. Ex-amples of an ABI cause in-clude a blow to the head or hitting one’s head, which is what happened to me in the car accident—my head went forward and backward caus-ing damage to most of my brain.
It also includes, as men-tioned, strokes. I suffered a blood clot in the brain stem which caused a stroke on the right side. Other causes are brain tumours, brain in-fections, lack of oxygen, violent shaking (for example Shaken Baby Syndrome), and the effects of drugs and/or alcohol.
The brain controls ev-erything your body does. Everything you do and think about, how you feel, breath-ing, regulating your body temperature, seeing, hear-ing, sleeping, swallowing, balance, smell and taste, ap-petite, and so on.
Brain injuries are invis-ible and each person’s brain injury is different. Chil-dren’s brains are particularly susceptible.
A few signs and symp-toms of a brain injury a per-son may have include the following.
Physical effects: Get tired very easily; sleep prob-lems; headaches; visual/hearing problems; problems with balance, coordina-tion; paralysis or weakness in arms or legs, dizziness; spasticity (shaking, stiff or jerking muscles); seizures; cognitive effects, including changes in thinking abilities; difficulty concentrating; memory problems; flood-ing (brain gets overwhelmed and shuts down); disorgani-zation; takes longer to learn new things; communication difficulties; multitasking; reasoning and judgment; and decision making.
Psychosocial effects:
changes in emotions and social behaviour; problems with motivation (can’t get started, don’t finish things); change in self-identity; emotional issues; depres-sion problems; anxiety and stress; impulsivity; impa-tience and anger; and diffi-culty with relationships.
Concussions: these are also a form of brain injury that results from a direct or indirect blow to the head, face or jaw causing a change in brain function. Symptoms of a concussion can last for days, weeks, years and for the rest of your life. Signs of a concussion may in-clude: general confusion; nausea and vomiting; dizzi-ness; strange behaviour and unusual emotions; slurred speech; headache; slow re-sponse to questions; loss of consciousness; sensitivity to sound and/or light.
I have taken it upon my-self to encourage our com-munity to follow steps that will reduce and prevent brain injuries and concus-sions. And it bears repeat-ing.
Put on seat belts before the vehicle begins to move. Everyone in the vehicle must be buckled up. The hands are off the steering wheel to
buckle up and it takes only a second for something to happen.
Adults must be good role models for their children, so that the child will grow up knowing about safety and obeying the law. When children see their parents are breaking the law, they end up doing the same thing. On the other hand, some chil-dren will do the opposite and inform the parents.
Also when driving a vehi-cle there must be no distrac-tions, such as no talking on cell phones (there is a B.C. provincial law), no texting, no twittering. Don’t take eyes away from your driving focus on driving, don’t put make-up on while driving, don’t eat and drink while driving, etc. Always come to a complete stop at red lights and stop signs.
Over the years I have attended many brain injury conferences in Vancouver. Attending the conferences, I have learned about my own injury and in turn shared the information gained at the conferences in Terrace. I have also attended confer-ences in the past in Prince George, Smithers, Narama-ta, Comox, Saskatoon, Win-nipeg, Halifax, Regina, Ot-
tawa, Charlottetown, P.E.I. In Vancouver one year I, along with a few other sur-vivors, did a presentation from a survivor’s point of view. There were about 100 people who listened to our presentation.
I have provided informa-tion and been interviewed about acquired traumatic brain injury to The Terrace Standard newspaper for over 20 years. I have had total strangers come up to me and told me they appreciated the information.
I was also successful in lobbying the government for a change in Federal Income Tax for people who have a disability attending a post-secondary education part-time.
In the past I have done numerous interviews on CBC radio Daybreak North, as well as CFTK TV News, including a feature in Open Connection.
I have distributed Head-line magazine, B.C.’s main brain injury publication to Terrace city councillors and mayor, and have also been featured in Headline a few times.
In the past I did presen-tations in the schools in Thornhill through the B.C.
Injury Prevention Center called Injury Free Zone. I had positive feedback from the kids.
I was involved with the Bike Rodeo a few times. I thank the city for making a big sign/banner saying “Got Wheels Get a Helmet!” that was at the bike rodeo.
In the past I was also in-volved with the Brain Injury booth that was set up at the Farmers’ Market, and a cou-ple of times Terrace’s Brain Injury Support group had a booth set up at the Trades Fair. We were very busy ex-plaining brain injury to peo-ple. I have also had displays at Northwest Community College and at the Terrace Public Library.
I have donated books to the Terrace Public Library. All books are written by Ca-nadians who are survivors of an ABI. I found out about these books by attending the Brain Injury Conferences over the years.
I highly recommend a number of books, one of which was co-authored by ex-NHLer Keith Primeau called Concussed! Sports-related Head Injuries: Pre-vention, Coping and Real Stories.
Another is Winds of
Change, a collection of in-spirational stories by survi-vors of brain injury that il-luminates the power of the human spirit to overcome adversity.
The Courage to Come Back–Triumph over TBI a story of hope by Michael Coss, is another, as is March Forth: The Inspiring True Story of a Canadian Sol-dier’s journey of Love, Hope and Survival, by Trevor and Debbie Greene about an Af-ghanistan veteran who suf-fered a head injury.
I also recommend these websites:
*BC Brain Injury Asso-ciation
*Brain Injury Associa-tion of Canada
*BrainTrustCanada *Brainstreams *ThinkFirst *Parachute The documentary called
Wipe-Out from the Knowl-edge Network is also great, as are TV commercials made by preventable.ca.
The last words I would like to say:
Brain injury is for life – PROTECT YOUR HEAD – THINK AHEAD A FATAL BRAIN INJURY IS END OF LIFE.
Thank you for listening.

ESTABLISHED APRIL 27, 1988
BY ALL accounts we’re well past the days (if, indeed, they ever ex-isted) of classrooms in which every student gave the teacher an apple every morning and where learning took place in a calm environment so that each young charge came away equipped with a common body of skills and knowledge.
Instead the modern classroom is a roiling mass of humanity made up of young people of varying social and economic backgrounds, abilities and capabilities. And forget the apple – some students may not even have had breakfast.
It’s all about, to use the cliche phrase, “class size and composition” in which substantial numbers of stu-dents have what are called Individ-ual Education Plans or customized learning blueprints requiring specif-ic and detailed attention.
Being a parent of two or three chil-dren is a life-long challenge. Being responsible for several dozen widely different young people is an equal, and perhaps greater, challenge.
If the B.C. Teachers’ Federation is to have any measure of success in its ongoing contract battle with the province, it’s here where it can gain public support. While there might not be much appetite among the public to support the kind of wage increases wanted by teachers, espe-cially from those taxpayers already earning less than they do, their union can improve its odds by connecting the public to the human side of edu-cation.

EDITORIALA6 www.terracestandard.com OPINION Wednesday, June 11, 2014 Terrace Standard
After a 20-year-study researchers at the University of Melbourne
reported postmenopausal women who took care of their grandchildren one day a week had better memory and faster cognitive speed than those who didn’t. No big news there at least to anyone who has babysat sev-eral lively toddlers at once. Speedy thinking is required to juggle a three-year-old tamping Fruit Loops up his nose while sister leans over the bathroom sink squirting a shaving cream Santa beard on her face.
Researchers do, however, warn against over-using the generous nature of grandpar-ents. They note women who cared for grandchildren � ve or more days a week had sig-ni� cantly slower processing speed, possibly because they felt exhausted. Is a masters degree necessary to arrive at that conclusion? Mothers may forget labour pains but not eyelid-drooping exhaus-tion of early parenting that lingers well into kids’ teen years.
“Social engagement, positive mood enhancement, ongoing learning and men-
tal stimulation have all been shown to reduce the likeli-hood of getting Alzheim-er’s,” the researchers report. “Grandparenting contains all these components.” That’s good to know.
The cute or clever ac-tions of toddlers positively enhance grandmothers’ moods, and staving off a dangerous or risky scenario before it can be carried out keeps Grandma thinking steps ahead of the little dar-lings. The variety of kids’ creative play is boundless. One successful skirting of disaster may not apply as is to their next foray into may-hem.
“Anxiety and stress can impair cognitive perfor-mance,” the researchers say. And who would argue with that? Remember when you had a toddler or two to keep up with, you got only a few hours of sleep every night, and were lucky if that wasn’t interrupted for a feeding, or diaper change? As a young parent you might have been overwhelmed by utility bills, unexpected medical costs, a shortage of daylight hours to keep up with laundry, shop-ping, and all the chores that comprise raising a family.
When my grandchildren were born, I was approach-ing 60. But I was still limber enough in joints and mind to play board games sitting on the carpet or bike with them, help them with math home-work, coach them to bake cookies and apple pies, play basic piano and Fish, sing Christmas carols.
Now the mentoring shoe is on the other foot. When I’m stuck for a name or a word, by feeding them clues they usually can supply me with the names of actors, writers or musicians I want to speak about. At lunch, they quietly add from the fridge or cup-board anything I’ve forgotten
to set on the table.The Melbourne research-
ers’ advise, “Rather than fo-cusing on disease and lack of function as we age, focus more on our health.”
In TV ads, inspirational disabled people emphasize “It’s not what you can’t do; it’s what you can do.” My health focus centers on eat-ing well, and daily exercise in the form of a walk with my dogs. While I might skip an occasional walk if I were alone, I cannot disappoint them. Our walk is the high point of their day.
I do wonder, though, about researchers’ motiva-tion for this study. Was it solely to � nd a way to hold off Alzheimer’s, or to per-suade Grandma to babysit?
Whatever their motive, if their study helps grandpar-ents to stay fully cognitive through their last years, the study will have been useful.
The obituary of 86-year-old Maya Angelou in the Hollywood Reporter reads, “Her family is extremely grateful that her ascension was not belaboured by a loss of acuity or comprehension.”
Would that all seniors en-joyed cognitive acuity until their � nal breath.

Local control would help education

I cannot decide if I should laugh or cry in response to the provincial government’s exasperating effort to come
up with lock-out terms for teach-ers.
The government’s objective is to entice teachers to accept its conditions for a new contract. How can restricting the teachers’ hours at work, reducing their in-come by an arbitrary percentage, and demanding that they none-theless continue to perform ser-vices essential to education on a volunteer basis motivate teachers to agree?
The provincial government has no grasp of the significance of education when it attaches the “public sector worker” label to teachers, preoccupied by hours and minutes spent on school property, and boasting about X million dollars “put on the table”.
A key distinction between a trade and a profession is that the results of tasks performed by the former can be measured in units of production. Teachers are no more “public sector workers”
than are prosecutors, medical doctors, judges, university pro-fessors, or premiers. Recognizing teaching as a profession does not make teachers superior people; it distinguishes the nature of their services from work and services that produce a quantifiable out-put.
Educating children is not ca-reer training. We do not know the future. In my school days the electric typewriter had just been invented, and being a typewriter mechanic held the promise of a lucrative life-long career. Today my grandson consults the Inter-net with his hand-held thing to find out what a typewriter is.
Educating children is to awak-en and expand their learning ca-pacity. Literacy, mathematics, science and the arts are essential education components. What is most important however, more important than academics, is to prepare children for adulthood.
This involves teaching chil-dren how to think – not what to think but how to think – how to compare, how to contrast, how
to synthesize, and how to judge. Teaching children is not pro-gramming computers.
Canadians have (or should have) learned from the history of residential schools that con-verting children into adults as one would convert logs into lum-ber leads to disastrous results. An effective education policy is sensitive to and responds to the cultural, ethnic, social, or eco-
nomic family background of ev-ery child. Our society’s social, cultural, and economic make-up is multi-layered and ever more complex. Public education must ensure that every child – not the average child but every child – has the opportunity to maximize her or his capacity to become a well-rounded citizen. That is why class size and composition are important.
Province-wide bargaining for teachers’ terms of employment was instituted by the NDP gov-ernment in 1994. It was seen as a solution back then to a rash of local disputes between teachers and school boards. We should know by now that a Soviet-style centralized control and command structure is not an ideal approach to dispute resolution. The many private schools in this province maintain a positive relationship with their teachers without inter-ference by Big Brother. A posi-tive relationship between teachers and their employer is the founda-tion for positive teacher-student and teacher-parent relationships.
The long-term beneficiaries are the students.
It is time to revisit the 1994 decision. Why not offer to com-munities who care about the education of their children an opportunity to engage? Why not offer local bargaining to them as an alternative to the big hammer approach? Why not offer a par-ticipating role to municipal coun-cils? Municipalities could own and maintain school properties alongside municipal recreation and parks properties. Let the ac-countants sort out the finances. Having a single local administra-tion operate and maintain these facilities may be more effective and efficient. The savings would benefit all.
Removing the care of educa-tion real estate from the man-date of school boards would free board members to focus their time and attention to the profes-sion of education and to the needs of students.

Harnessing wind’s potentialDear Sir:
Re: “Premier needs to keep energy promise” column by Gerald Amos and Des Nobels in the May 28, 2014 edition of The Terrace Standard.
The writers are correct. With all the attention being paid to the proposed Site C project right now, it is impor-tant to remember that B.C. has other clean energy options available that have a lower im-
pact both on the environment, and on future electricity rates.
During the 2008-2011 Clean Power Call competitive process, wind energy projects won 47 per cent of the 3,266 GWh per year of contracted energy that was procured by BC Hydro. Large productivity gains and a significant drop in turbine prices have now firmly established that wind energy resources form the bulk of
B.C.’s lowest-cost renewable energy opportunities. There is no fuel price risk with wind energy, so wind energy con-tracts lock in prices for 20 years; with overall inflation, this means the cost of wind energy actually gets cheaper in real terms every single year.
The government has also signaled its intention to en-sure that B.C. has the “cleanest LNG in the world,” that the use
of clean energy to power the proposed LNG plants be maxi-mized and that government create new opportunities for independent power producers and First Nations interested in developing clean energy proj-ects. Wind energy delivers on all fronts.

Dear Sir:The Northern Connector front page of May 23,
2014 contained a photo of Prime Minister Stephen Harper posing with the Terrace U17 girls’ volley-ball team in Edmonton. Given the recent Kitimat plebiscite vote against Northern Gateway, I wonder if it might not have served his purpose better just to travel out of his comfort zone to Kitimat to do a photo op with the Kitimat volleyball team. And while he was here in northwestern B.C., take a look around at what exactly an oil spill here will destroy.
There was also a photo in The Terrace Standard of May 28 showing Premier Christy Clark posing with northwestern B.C. students who attended an LNG conference in Vancouver, all expenses paid.
As Anne Hill from North West Watch comment-ed “Students are young minds and easily mould-ed... when 90 per cent of the speakers are pushing industry, I don’t think they’re getting a very bal-anced view.” I was under the impression that school policy was to provide a balanced view, so where’s the other half of the balance? There is a documen-tary filmed by members of the environmental group Beyond Boarding, called “Northern Grease”.
In it they travel around northern B.C. and Al-berta to understand resource extraction projects. What they find is a disturbing landscape and prob-lems created by practices such as fracking. In their presentation to schools, they use the sport of snow-boarding as a means of gaining attention, and then educate on social and environmental issues.
Overall, I find both of the aforementioned pho-tos disturbing to say the least.
When the two governments use our youth and children to advance their own agendas, and influ-ence young minds to create their future trade labour forces, they have stepped over a line. Their goal is to divide and conquer, ours is to unite and resist.

Prince Rupert Gas Transmission Ltd. (Proponent), a wholly owned subsidiary of TransCanada PipeLines Limited, is proposing the Prince Rupert Gas Transmission Project (proposed Project), an approximately 900 km natural gas pipeline from near the District of Hudson’s Hope to the proposed Pacific NorthWest LNG liquefied natural gas export facility on Lelu Island, within the District of Port Edward.
The proposed Project would involve the construction and operation of a 48-inch (1,219 mm) diameter pipeline, metering facility, and three compressor stations, with provision for up to an additional five compressor stations to allow for future expansion. The proposed Project will have an initial capacity of approximately 2.0 billion cubic feet (bcf/day) with potential for expansion to approximately 3.6 bcf/day.
The proposed Project is subject to review under British Columbia’s Environmental Assessment Act.
The Proponent has now submitted its application (Application) to obtain an environmental assessment certificate, which is required before any work can be undertaken on the proposed Project.
In order to provide information to the public about the Application, and to receive comments from the public, the Environmental Assessment Office of British Columbia (EAO) invites the public to attend Open Houses at the following locations. All open houses will be held between 4 p.m. and 8 p.m.

Dear Sir:It is interesting to read the letters to the editor
from Greg Stringham of the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (May 14, 2014, The Ter-race Standard) and David Black of Kitimat Clean (May 21, 2014, The Terrace Standard) in which they duke it out over which is favourable for the north coast.
Mr. Stringham promotes diluted bitumen-carry-ing pipelines and tankers while Mr. Black favours a diluted bitumen-carrying pipeline and tankers car-rying products refined at a refinery near Kitimat.
Neither alternative is a healthy choice for the B.C. north coast.
Mr. Stringham claims that, “…diluted bitumen meets all the same specifications and behaves the same as other crude oils…”
In making these claims, I’m guessing Mr. String-ham is referring to Alberta Innovates’ (a mouthpiece for the Alberta oil industry) comparison of 11 ‘con-ventional’ crudes and four dilbits in their presenta-tion in Washington, D.C. of July 23-24, 2012.
On page 13 of that presentation the eleven ‘con-ventional’ crudes ranging from 0.4-3.4 per cent sulphur are said to overlap those of the four dilbits which range from 2.5-4.6 per cent sulphur.
It would be quite a stretch to consider any of the eleven ‘conventional’ crudes on their list as oils from conventional sources.
Typically, oils from conventional sources don’t tend to be as locked up by sand, tar and rock and are generally much lower in sulphur and much easier to extract than either the transitional or “unconven-tional” crude oils that come from the Alberta tar sands.
The North American benchmark crudes; Brent (0.4 per cent sulphur) and West Texas Intermedi-
ate (0.2 per cent sulphur) have about one-tenth the sulphur levels of dilbits from Alberta.
When you further consider hydrogen sulphide (H2S), a poisonous gas at relatively low concen-trations, you’ll find Cold Lake dilbit at 300 ppm (parts per million) and Western Canada Select dil-bit at 400 ppm.
Compare that to West Texas Intermediate at less than 10 ppm H2S (EnergyWire news, Dec. 10, 2012). You’d have to conclude that first responders to a spill of dilbit would have a few more serious health concerns on their plate than in dealing with a spill of conventional crude oil.
Dilbit comes very close to the H2S range of 500-1000 ppm which may cause respiratory pa-ralysis, collapse, and death (MEG Energy material safety data sheet for dilbit).
So, Mr. Stringham, when it comes to human health effects, these oils do not behave the same as other crude oils when spilled.
Mr. Black concludes that dilbit will sink in the presence of sediment and plant and animal matter. This would be the case whether the dilbit spill were to happen in a rain swollen river or at sea.
Pipelines are renowned for breaching during high rainfall events and resultant landslides. Any-one who’s ever seen the Bulkley, Skeena, Copper or Kitimat River during a heavy sediment load dur-ing spring runoff or heavy autumn rains wouldn’t give a dilbit spill much of a chance of cleanup with-out a thorough dredging of these precious salmon spawning watercourses.
So Mr. Stringham and Mr. Black, please peddle your ideas elsewhere and leave B.C.’s waters bitu-men-free.

WHEN TRAPPERS from tribal chief Liz Logan’s community in Fort Nelson venture through their northeast-ern B.C. traditional ter-ritory these days they bring along bottled water to drink because they don’t trust the pu-rity in the rivers flow-ing through an area experiencing the rapid impacts of natural gas extraction and other in-dustries.
While a preference for bottled water over creek and river water may not strike one as odd, it is significant for a First Nation which has adapted to the local environment over many centuries.
The mission of Cree-Dene elders to enhance environmental over-sight in northeastern B.C. and slow down development prompted a northwest tour by Lo-gan of the Treaty 8 As-sociation, named after one of the land claims treaties signed in the late 1880s.
“Gas doesn’t just appear in the pipe, it’s got to come from some-where and it’s impact-ing somebody some-where,” said Logan who spoke in Terrace at the Elephant’s Ear late last month.
To illustrate these impacts during her talks she uses photos and videos and first hand accounts.
“The elders are say-ing there is something wrong with the water, something wrong with the animals. We need a cumulative impact as-sessment done before
more development pro-ceeds,” said Logan.
The Fort Nelson re-gion is located within the Horn River shale basin rich with gas de-posits, and is central to B.C.’s plan to expand extraction facilities and pump gas by pipeline to the coast where it will be shipped in liquefied form overseas.
Logan said people within the boundaries of Treaty 8 are the eyes and ears of the land and keep an eye on what in-dustry is doing.
“Compliance and enforcement in the oil field isn’t adequate. A lot of our people are the ones seeing the infrac-tions, and we report it back to our nation who then reports it to he oil and gas commission,”
she said.Some of the main
concerns surround wildlife grazing near gas sites where flared material has collected on the ground or near sump pits, as well as the widespread use of pes-ticides along right-of-ways and burning tim-ber when clearing them instead of sending it to market. She said that an independent study her band commissioned for the area confirmed their fears about the high lev-els of toxic material in the forests.
At her presentation she showed aerial video of the gas wells in the basin, saying the thou-sands of wells in the region now will grow immensely to meet gas demands.
Logan is promoting a letter-writing cam-paign to convince the provincial government to respond to concerns. Various rules such as putting better fencing around contaminated areas is one measure she is promoting.
She said she is wor-ried about the cumula-tive effects of forestry, mines, the proposed Site C dam and all the others is having.
Logan does ac-knowledge the benefits a gas industry can bring.
“I will not deny that there are job opportuni-ties,” said Logan.
“But locals a lot of the time just get the scrap jobs because they bring in their own little boy’s club who they are used to working with,” she said. “There are a lot of Albertans in our territory, there are no careers usually for our people, although there is no lack of jobs in the oil patch.”

FOUR OF the largest liquefied natu-ral gas proponents who want to build facilities in the region have come to-gether to push for the export of BC gas to Asia.
The B.C. LNG Developers Alli-ance includes Lelu Island terminal developers Pacific NorthWest LNG, Ridley Island LNG developers the BG Group, Shell-led LNG Canada and Chevron-led Kitimat LNG. Rod Maier, manager of external commu-nications with Chevron Canada for Kitimat LNG, said the alliance is still very much in its infancy.
“We have been having discussions and have created a framework for the alliance ... we are still working out the
details around governance and hiring staff, so we have not entirely gone live yet,” he said, noting a formal launch will happen once staff is in place and a brand has been developed.
“Ideally the association would have been in place last year, but the launch will probably be in the coming months.”
Maier said the alliance was under-taken to promote collaboration in ar-eas of common interest. As well, the alliance plans to create a program to create more awareness of the indus-try. “Increasing education about our industry is a key component, along with establishing common best prac-tices and goals,” said Maier.
It’s common for companies to form collaborative associations.

Pousettes draw honourfor service to camp

JOHN AND Evelyn Pousette with a photo plaque honouring their years of service and involvement in the Rough Acres Bible Camp near Houston, B.C.
By CAITLIN CLOW
SATURDAY MAY 17 marked the day that Rough Acres Bible Camp celebrated the renaming of its dining hall to reflect upon the camp’s heritage and the Pousette family’s in-volvement in the start-up of the camp.
The building is now named the Pousette Dining Hall.
John Pousette and his wife Evelyn, long time residents of Ter-race, received a plaque that honoured their hard work and contributions made to the camp.
Another Terrace resident, Stewart Chris-tensen, shared many stories of John Pousette and said that his col-leagues will always remember that he is brilliant, humble and compassionate, a reli-gious scholar and a man of God.
“He is always look-ing out for others,” Christensen said.
Pousette had a re-laxed and content ex-
pression the entire eve-ning, after all, he was surrounded by his camp family. The family that he helped start.
Saturday, May 17 was also Rough Acres’ annual fund-raising din-ner event.
A silent auction, including original art-work and photography, handcrafted items and a guitar were up for grabs. All the proceeds went to the camp.
Rough Acres Bible Camp is an outdoor camp that offers youth a week-long escape into the wilderness to live in a “group atmosphere where Christian leaders have an opportunity to share Christ’s love and forgiveness,” described their website.
The camp was estab-lished in 1973 and sum-mer camps have been going on for more than 30 years, usually host-
ing around 300 summer students between the ages of six and 17.
The students are provided with three square meals and tuck – a term referring to snacks, usually consist-ing of sweets.
A typical day at summer camp is jam-packed with activities including field games, archery, arts and crafts, kayaking, canoeing, team building exercises
and chapel. Of course, no day
is complete without a campfire with hot choc-olate and sing-a-longs.
By the time the day is done the kids retire to their cabins pooped and amped for what’s in store for tomorrow.
Andrew Hillaby has met many people through volunteering at the camp. He’s been do-nating his time for more than six years. He said that the camp is a magi-cal place.
“It is a place where campers can be who they are, and they make friends really quickly,” he said.
Hillaby said that many teens who aren’t keen at first end up be-ing the ones who never want to leave, and they are the first to re-regis-ter.
“I’m actually getting teary eyed,” he added, underscoring the power of the camp and the strength of the commu-nity.
Summer camps run in July and August.
IT MAY not yet officially be summer, but with all of the activities that go on during the warm-er months Skeena Valley Fall Fair organizers want you to be aware of opportunities to en-ter various of its prize categories leading up to the Sept. 6 event at the Thornhill Community Grounds.
Under the arts and crafts category, general media, works by amateurs, either original or by kit are welcome. Only one entry per exhibitor allowed in each class and the work must have been made in the past 12 months and never have been entered elsewhere. The fair’s theme of “Honour our Heritage” is encouraged.
The classes are painting with oil, acrylic or water colour, drawing with pencil, crayon, marker, graphite, etc., collage and paper-based creations, woodworking, metal craft and jew-elry.
There is also a category for quilting with judges looking for general appearance, mate-rial and craftsmanship. Specific categories are strip piecing, paper piecing and applique.
Under the section for needle arts, there are categories for weaving, wool craft (either knit-ting or crochet), needlework/embroidery, sew-ing, wearable art (upcycled or new material) and felting.
Under the section for pottery, there are cat-egories for sculptural, decorative, functional and a category for those with less than a year’s experience.
If making a scarecrow appeals, there is a category for best scarecrow. Scarecrows must be built from recycled articles, be life-sized and have some means of support.
And if zucchini racing is more your style, all you need to do is come up with wheel made of anything ... as long as they attach directly to the zucchini. There are prizes for fastest, fur-thest and best-decorated zucchini. Racing takes place Saturday, Sept. 6 at 1 p.m.
Photography categories are handled by the Photography Club of Terrace with categories being people, animals, landscape and the best of last year’s fall fair.
With the chance that children may spend more of June at home than first planned, there are a variety of categories for children 5-8 years of age, 9-12 years of age and 13-16 years of age.
Those categories are drawing/painting in any medium, pasta picture (that’s any picture created entirely of pasta and painted), small-est vegetable (labeled with type of vegetable), largest pumpkin contest, largest sunflower con-test, vegetables depicting people or animals, an herb arrangement of cut stems in a vase with card labeling the herb, loaf or four buns of either white, whole wheat or multigrain, best decorated cupcakes, chocolate chip cookies, papier mache/modge podge construction, rock creation, recycled material creation, pottery creation, needlework of knitting, crochet, sew-ing or other, fabric art, puppet making, collage, clothespin creation, Lego display and other creative arts.
For complete information on all the cat-egories, what’s involved, entry forms and judging standards, visit the Skeena Valley Fall Fair website found at www. skeenaval-leyfallfair.com.

CITY SCENEFax your event to make the Scene at 250-638-8432. Deadline is 5 p.m. Thursday.
Shouldn’t’ve. I have a love-hate relation-
ship with this word. On the plus side, it is one of the few
double-contraction words I know, like couldn’t’ve and wouldn’t’ve.
On the minus side, should-not-have is a negative past-tense kinda word. When someone tells me I should not have done this or that, I feel compelled to tell them, gently, that my Time Ma-chine is broken. (The guy who usually fixes it for me went back to 1964 and hasn’t been seen since.) Since my Time Machine is broken (as yours may be as well) it is difficult to undo a thing you did that you shouldn’t’ve.
Your choices are:1. Go back in time and don’t do
what you did do (see above: TM bro-ken, TM repair guy gone).
2. Feel guilty, remorseful, shamed, caught after the fact, like a puppy that ate a shoe.
3. Get all self-righteous and start finding fault with them and tell them what THEY bloody well shouldn’t’ve done.
4. Go to your happy place and dig up horsetail roots then plant annual flowers and Brassicaceae until all feel-ings of annoyance go away.
I usually go for #4.Here are some more distortions of
time that I have observed.“Hang on a sec.” When you are talking to someone in
person or on the phone, and they ad-vise you to wait for ONE SECOND, I find the wait time to be anywhere from one minute (“Yes, I sent you that email. Yesterday afternoon. Just look for – never mind, I’ll re-send”) to four min-
utes (attempting to win an argument with a toddler about a cookie).
“Just a minute.” This is when you are holding five
heavy bags full of groceries or balanc-ing a new tiller on a set of stairs and your family member is more than will-ing to help but not until torturing you first. The wait time is never ever ONE MINUTE, it may go longer than three minutes, I don’t know, because that is the point at which I begin yelling.
“Can I call you back in five?” This person is busy but is being po-
lite by not making you hang on while they argue with a toddler about a cook-ie. Wait time: anywhere from two min-utes to 24 hours to never. It’s true: this FIVE MINUTES can stretch to infinity because the person was so distracted they forgot about your call the instant they hung up, maybe to help a family
member move a new tiller up to the back porch, then discuss its fabulous features and qualities. Then go buy gas and oil then till the back 40 and plant and harvest and can and so forth.
“Be in the Moment!”Now, this is not so much time distor-
tion as time corrective action. It seems some people’s Time Machines DO work, because they are dwelling on the past, as if they could indeed go back and un-do their shouldn’t’ves.
Did you lose your keys? If so, I bet-cha a dollar that you were not in the moment: nay, you were in the future, maybe even five steps ahead of the now. Let’s see, first I have to get that chicken out of the freezer, then – Oh, I better wash my hands – (keys dropped beside sink) then I have to water the seedlings and get that soil turned to plant the berry bushes. Hello? Hello? Yes, five o’clock, OK. See you then. Now, to get that soil turned over!
It’s no use to ask such a time traveller to recall when they had their keys last, because THEY WERE NOT THERE. While their body was at the sink, auto-matically turning on the tap, squirting the soap, wringing their hands, their mind was already out in the garden.
The garden might be the best place to Be in the Moment, feeling the warmth of the sun, smelling the perfume of li-lacs carried by the breeze, seeing the turned earth, dark and moist, and pil-ing it over the dry top layer, watching a worm make its way slowly and pausing to let it escape.
Unless you’re making supper. Let’s see, there’s that ground beef to use up, and some rhubarb… Turn off your Time Machine; breathe.

Pipeline company wantsroute through Nass parkBy JOSH MASSEY
A PIPELINE company aiming to transport natural gas to a proposed LNG facility in Prince Rupert has submitted an application to go through the Nisga’a Memorial Lava Bed Provincial Park in the Nass Valley.
The Prince Rupert Gas Transmission Proj-ect is owned by TransCanada and would pump natural gas approximately 900 kilometres from northeastern B.C. to the proposed Pacific North-West LNG facility on Lelu island just outside of Prince Rupert.
TransCanada wants to clear a 50-metre wide right-of-way through a 14-kilometre stretch of the park west of New Aiyansh with most of the right-of-way paralleling Hwy113, the Nisga’a Highway.
The lava beds which make up a majority of the park were created approximately 250 years ago when a volcanic eruption spilled into the valley, covering two villages and killing approximately 2,000 people.
The area was registered as a Class A provincial park in 1992 and is now managed in partnership with between the Nisga’a Lisims Government and BC Parks.
In its application for a park boundary adjust-ment, TransCanada says the 48-inch diameter pipe-line will be buried and that there will be no above ground structures such as compressor stations.
After the pipeline is installed, the legal right-of-way will be reduced to 32 metres, with approxi-mately 10 metres of that maintained. “Natural re-vegetation will be encouraged,” reads the proposal.
Nisga’a Lisims officials have so far declined to comment on the plan.
A summary of the application filed by Trans-
Canada states it studied various alternative routes through the Nisga’a traditional and treaty territory before deciding on the Nisga’a park route.
“The routes that avoided the park were deemed most challenging and removed from consideration early in the process,” says the application summary about alternatives.
Two options were looked at for the park, one which would have skirted the southern boundar-ies, but the pipeline company decided to follow the Nisga’a Highway instead to avoid waterways and culturally significant sites.
The park boundary adjustment application in-cludes a series of open houses beginning in Terrace on June 16.
TransCanada estimates that there will be 110 person years of employment to Nisga’a people dur-ing a three-year construction period of the project, with construction of the Nisga’a Memorial park right-of-way pegged for summer and fall of 2017 and predicted to take four months.
Provincial legislation passed in March, Bill 4, allows companies to do assessment work within provincial park boundaries to be used for potential park boundary adjustments applications.
After the public consultation and reporting stage the boundary adjustment then goes to the provincial cabinet where an amendment to the parks legisla-tion is granted or denied.
TransCanada is still working on its plans for the remainder of the pipeline routing out of the Nisga’a territory. Their most recent map shows underwater routing from the coast down to the proposed Lelu island facility. However, other routes, including one that would run north of the Nass Valley and enter the water at Kitsault instead, are still being looked at.
Second company eyes small portion of park, tooT R A N S C A N A D A ISN’T the only pipe-line company consider-ing a route through the Nisga’a Lava Bed Me-morial Park as one way of getting natural gas from northeastern B.C. to a planned liquefied natural gas plant near Prince Rupert.
But Spectra Energy, which would build a 48-inch pipeline called the Westcoast Connector for the planned Prince Rupert LNG proj-ect owned by the BG Group, would mostly skirt the southern edge of the Class A park and go through the park for 1,200 metres beginning at a narrow point near the Hwy113 entry to the park, says company lands and environment manager Ken Berry.
And unlike the Trans Canada plan which calls for digging a trench, placing in the pipe and then burying it, Spectra Energy would use hori-zontal drilling technol-ogy, leaving the surface undisturbed.
Spectra construction manager Drum Cavers,
speaking at an informa-tion open house here June 4, said the Nisga’a Lisims Government has expressed a desire that a route along Hwy113 leading westward be considered, but that the company prefers the southern route.
“Right now what we have filed we come across the narrowest portion,” said Cavers of environmental filings
made with the provin-cial government.
“What the concept was in the application was to drill underneath there to avoid distur-bance to the surface,” added Errol Batchelor.
Spectra’s right-of-way, which is 55 metres wide, would then paral-lel the highway along with the TransCanada pipeline through the park.
It is also planning a route that would enable it to put in two 48-inch pipelines should any other LNG plant pro-posal in Prince Rupert surface. Spectra has yet to officially seek per-mission to drill through the park and both it and Trans Canada are now going through the pub-lic consultation part of their environmental as-sessments.

f th W k
Welcome to the driver’s seat
How far would you travel for a home cooked meal?
Munich, Germany – There’s no shortage of places to chow down here in Bavaria but that’s not really what I had in mind. Sometimes you just hanker for some good ol’ fashioned home
cooking and the desire makes distance no object.According to Google Maps, the drive to some tasty yet simple food fare will take approximately six hours and five minutes, and is about 684 kilometres. One way. That’s not including the approximately 8,300 kms travelled to get to Munich, Germany.The destination: Budapest, Hungary, where I’ll have one night to spend with my grandparents – grandma Ilona and grandpa Pál Lencsés.I’ve got the use of a bright red 2015 Audi A3 and a full tank of gas, so why not? Considering I’ll be there less than 24 hours, words like “ambitious” or “motivated” or even “crazy” might de-scribe my reasoning. But heck, if it means I get a home cooked meal, I’d travel all night.Relatively speaking, I’m so close to them. I couldn’t let the opportunity go to waste. And anyone who loves their grandparents’ cooking will sympathize.
Getting me there doesn’t involve security screenings, boarding passes, the hospitality of flight attendants or the company of an Airbus. With my bag tucked away in the trunk, my destination set into the GPS, it was go time. This particular A3 came equipped with Audi’s new MMI Touch with hand-writing recognition infotain-ment system and the MMI Navigation plus. Instead of spelling out the address using the dial and twisting the wrists back and forth, you can just trace out the letters with your finger on the dial’s face. I will warn you, if you have bad penmanship like me, the system might pick up on a different letter than the one you had intended! Regardless, getting the hang of it is relatively easy, and really kind of fun, too.Throughout the drive in Germany, I shaved a few minutes off here and there. The speed limitless zones certainly helped. Perhaps that’s why I opted to take the car rather than fly. A chance to drive quickly – in certain sections - AND get a delicious meal at the end.The A3’s swift characteristics hail from its 1.8L, direct injected and turbocharged 4-cylinder engine. With a healthy dose of 170 horsepower and 199 lb-ft of torque, I had everything I needed. The competency of its front MacPherson Strut with Lower Wishbones and 4-link rear suspension with sep-arate spring/shock absorber arrangement at highway speeds is confidence inspiring. It doesn’t waver with the speed and feels firmly planted. And for a small-ish vehicle, that’s always a good thing.The Audi A3 itself isn’t boring by design, but the long
drive is. Especially on the most, direct route. Knowing that I would get to spend some quality time with my grandparents, and the A3, kept me going. With the speed limits decreasing and the flow of traffic consider-ably worsening, I knew I was getting close. It was just nearing dinner. Perfect.Before devouring my grandma’s famous crepes – complete with homemade apricot jam with apricots that grew in their summer home’s backyard. My grandparents tightly embraced me. I’m not sure who was more excited to see whom, though their attention was split between hugs and admiring the red chariot
that brought me to their home in one piece. I can’t blame them. It is quite the sedan in regards to styling. And that colour just can’t be missed.As I walked through the courtyard and along the path to their apartment, I caught a faint whiff of what had been baking throughout the day. I knew that the crepes, and myself, would soon be gone.In this case, you can’t help buy devour yet appreciate the goodness a “home” cooked meal can have. The
family then gathers around the dinner table, says grace, and digs in.Was it worth it? That’s obvious of an answer as is the response to, “Do you want seconds?” The meal was priceless but the 2015 Audi A3 1.8 TFSI has a starting of $31,100.Check out the Question of the Week and if you want more info about the A3, visit www.audi.ca

Curbers often lurk online and in the small print of clas-sified advertising sections.But no matter where they choose to advertise their cars for sale, their driving desire is to make you a bad deal dressed as a good one.In the next two weeks, we’re going to take a look first at a typical curber profile then tell you about the activi-ties of some specific conmen known to the authorities. It is hoped that this information will ensure you won’t fall foul of these low-lifers. I’m indebted to the Vehicle Sales Authority for providing the research necessary for me to furnish with this advice.I guess I’ve always had a cartoonish image of what a curber looks like but the VSA put me straight on that notion. Typically, the curber is a male, 45 or older but they can come in all ages, shapes and sizes. Frequently, they have a ‘your neighbour’ look, avoiding anything
flashy in appearance that might draw atten-tion. Sometimes dresses like a mechanic or labourer who needs the cash urgently for one reason or another. He always have a story about the vehicle that sounds reasonable, given that the buyer is really only interested in the car, not the story. However, sometimes there will be an elaborate yarn designed to elicit an emo-tional reaction; for example, he’s selling for his dad’s widow, his kid is going back to the home country for a visit. This is a way they can “bridge” the registration – sell a vehicle still registered in someone else’s name.The only way to reach him is by cell phone, he’s slip-pery about providing details and his availability. He will always be alone and usually has a pay-as-you-go
phone. This enables him to switch SIM cards and use different numbers in ads for different cars. Here’s a tip: scan ads and see if any others read similarly to the one detailing the car you are interested in. They may be slick but one downfall is their cre-ative writing ability! – They usually use the same language and terms in all of their ads.The viewing location will always be a parking lot, most often at a mall or large grocery store parking lot, and occasionally at service stations. He
will avoid going for a test drive, saying that he’s not allowed to let someone else drive the vehicle for insur-ance reasons or the vehicle doesn’t have enough gas.
If there is a test drive, the radio will be turned on up loud to drown out any mechanical problems. If the customer wants to take the vehicle for an inspection, the curber will accuse them of not trusting them!Always in a hurry because another potential buyer is coming by shortly. Chats constantly to keep the buyer from having time to think clearly. Curbers are all good salespersons, they know how to deflect and direct conversations. They are engaging and portray them-selves as being on the buyer’s side; “not like those bad dealers” in some disreputable area of town.They want cash and will take the purchaser to their choice of autoplan agent. I have to say if you get this far along in a transaction and you haven’t cottoned on, after reading this advice you might be destined to be a [email protected]
Curbers dedicated to separating you from your hard-earned cash

While most auto manufacturers provide option lists as long as your arm, the 2014 Buick Enclave provides many luxuries as standard equipment. Particularly appreciated by yours truly on an extended test drive were the perfo-rated leather seats that conform to your body and provide comfort and warmth via easily accessible heater/air condition-ing buttons. I found the Enclave to be very comfortable and the cabin to be very quiet, in fact there was little if any road noise.Seating for seven with an option for eight, gives riders plenty of room and all seats are very comfortable. The second seats slide forward easily thanks to ‘Smart Slide’, enabling quick access to the third-
row seating area. With the pull of a lever, the cushion flips up while the seatback slides forward. The system can be adjusted to provide more legroom either for those in the second row or third. I should also note the ice blue LED light strip that envelops the entire inside of the vehicle at night, forming a chest high ring of light. Might be ok if you’re a fan of the movie Tron, but I found it a bit distracting. Moving on . . .The Enclave features enough technological upgrades to excite any techno savvy person. The Buick IntelliLink system is an interactive audio system that enables you to access music and apps
from your smartphone. It also offers a voice to text system to discourage the temptation to glance at your smartphone while driving. I used the system extensively and proved to be a real winner. Many safety features are available with this vehicle including rear cross traffic alerts that help you detect vehicles
as you are backing up. There is also an available side blind zone alert that uses radar to identify a vehicle traveling in one of your blind spots. In additional to all the
usual airbags, Buick has introduced an industry first driver’s seat side mounted front centre airbag. It provides cushioning between the driver and front passenger in side impacts.Nice weather encouraged me to take a trip to Whistler along the Sea-to-Sky high-way. I have always enjoyed that highway with all the twists and curves. The Enclave was a little sluggish on the hills but overall it handled very well. The tester had a 3.6-litre V6 engine, which generates 288 horsepower, is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission and offers direct injection with variable valve timing. The all-wheel drive system detects wheel slippage and delivers power to the wheel to give you it the best grip.
The highway fuel consumption is rated at 8.4 L/100km (12.7 – city), but I was getting about 8.9L/100km on my trip. The actual numbers are 12.7/8.4 L/100 km (city/highway)I’ve left the looks until last because the major changes came in the last model year so differences are only subtle. It does now have a noticeable splash of LED ac-cent lighting over the headlights. The Enclave is designed to be a stylish people mover and it definitely achieves that goal. Overall, it was a nice driving experience and with a few changes, it could be a more attractive one too.Price as tested $51,545.

Postal worker averts potential scamAN ALERT Terrace postal worker recog-nized signs of a fraud scam and alerted the potential victim, sav-ing her a large chunk of money, says a Terrace RCMP officer.
“A strong communi-ty is all about watching out for each other. In this instance the postal worker recognized that a person was probably being scammed so did not complete the money transfer. The worker ad-vised the person to talk to the police first. By community members keeping an eye out for each other like this we can all live more safely and without fear. An en-gaged community is a safe community,” says Cst Angela Rabut.
The victim recently accepted a friend re-quest on Facebook from a person from her past. This “friend” privately messaged the victim saying that they had re-cently won a prize and that she should enter the same contest. The vic-tim entered the contest then received a message
saying that she had won a large sum of money. To claim the prize she needed to pay the taxes for the prize money first. Direction was given to send the money via MoneyGram.
A legitimate contest will never ask a win-ner to pay any fees up front to receive a prize, lottery, or sweepstake. The police advised the victim that this was a scam and fortunately no
money was lost, thanks in large part to the awareness and actions of the postal worker, says Rabut.
Education is the best crime prevention. For more information on
recognizing frauds and how to protect yourself go to http://www.anti-fraudcentre-centreanti-fraude.ca. If you would like a free presentation on fraud recognition and prevention for your
community group con-tact the Terrace RCMP.
If you have not lost any money and have not provided personal or financial information (relating to a fraud or scam), and you simply
want to inform the ap-propriate organizations, report it to the Cana-dian Anti-fraud Centre by calling 1-888-495-8501or at http://www.antifraudcentre-centre-antifraude.ca.

GOLDER ASSOCIATES IS PROUD TO ANNOUNCE
Eric Constantinescu, P.Eng.
Appointed as an Associate
By ANNA KILLEN
ROGER HOBDAY of Sante Fe, New Mexico wasn’t quite sure what to think when he got an email from local lottery million-aire Bob Erb offering to send him $450,000 to help the homeless in that southwestern American city.
“Most of the time you can see right through them right away, but this one really made me won-der. And of course I was hoping it was true,” he said, speaking on the phone from his home in New Mexico late last month. “In this case, according to the letter, he wanted me to use the money to help the homeless get jobs, which is a noble thing. So I was hoping it was true, but I was kind of suspecting that it wasn’t.”
As it turns out, Hobday’s sus-picions were right – he was the target of a sophisticated attempt-ed scam being sent out to count-less thousands of people.
Here’s how it works: the po-tential victim receives an email from someone, in this case Erb’s name was used, which states he is a lottery winner wanting to share his winnings.
Links to videos of Erb’s well-documented generosity are provided in order to prove le-gitimacy. If the potential victim bites, they are then asked to open a bank account – complete with of� cial looking forms to � ll out – where they will be prompted to deposit a sum of money before they can access the larger sum.
Hobday did some investigat-ing, which included contacting banks in Spain and The Terrace Standard, before conceding it was a fraud.
“It was very good,” he said, of the operation, and especially of the fake bank website. “It really seemed like a real bank website with all the details and so on.”
He’s obviously disappointed
it wasn’t real, but said he’s glad he learned there’s a real Bob Erb using his lottery winnings to help people in need.
As far as scams go, what Hobday experienced is a fairly common scheme. It is lumped under the “prize” scam category (you’ve won a prize, but money is needed to access that prize) and is similar to the traditional West African fraud, in which the scammer says they have access to a deposed leader’s money and needs help moving it.
But it’s one example of how sophisticated scammers operate, exploiting real events and infor-mation to scheme people out of money.
“If it sounds too good to be true, it can’t be true. Don’t be that gullible,” said Erb, noting that since his win he’s encountered many of these schemes. “There are hundreds of people around the world that are using people’s names that have far more money (than me).”
Daniel Williams from the Ca-nadian Anti Fraud Centre, a fed-eral government agency, agrees with Erb’s sentiment – citizens need to be wary of any unso-licited email they receive, and there are myriad similar schemes around the globe.
“There have been other cases throughout Canada where peo-ple have won big lotteries, de-cided to give away half or most of it, of course there’d be news stories generated and the scam-mers would latch onto that,” he said. “They love to add an air of authenticity to whatever prom-ise they’re making, whatever scheme they’re after.”
Those authentic details often help people fall victim to fraud. People think, “Why would these people go to so much trouble for a few thousand dollars?” ex-plained Williams. But they are
sending out emails on a mass in-dustrial scale, so a few hundred dollars from a few hundred vic-tims adds up.
“A million dollar fraud a few victims at a time. The percent-age doesn’t have to be high when you’re reaching out to tens of hundreds, sometimes millions, of potential victims,” he said.
And Williams said it’s impor-tant not to engage with the scam-mers at all or even answer one email.
“If in your heart of hearts you know it’s a scam, why on earth would you spend a nanosecond responding to it? There’s no way you can convert these guys to the true way, they’re scammers, they know exactly what they’re doing, they’re trying to defraud the public,” he said. “Reporting them is one thing, but playing with them... any type of reply is an indication that at the very least you’re on the fence. There-fore you’re worthy of a lot more attention, which you’re bound to get.”
Responding adds another lev-el of risk, in that the scammers could get into your computer.
“Anybody responding to something like that is absolutely going on is going on what scam-mers would consider a ‘suckers list’ and would absolutely be hit up with much more personal contact, a phone call from a quite sophisticated gang with a great big story behind them,” he said.
“The Internet adds a whole other dimension of risk. Some-times what you think would be just innocent back and forth and playing with these guys, be very careful what you are opening, zip � les, what you download, because before you know it, the scammers are in your computer.
“If you really think there’s a need to play with the scammers, do so with your local police.”

“We often sit and think of you, and of the way you died. Many nights we dream of you, and many nights we’ve cried.We thought of you with love today, but that was nothing new, We thought about you yesterday, and the day before that too.
Our hearts still ache with sadness and secret tears do fl ow, For what it meant to lose you no one will ever know.
They say time heals all sorrows and helps us to forget,But the time has only proven that we miss you even yet....”

Shannon Eileen Peden(nee Butler)
Born on July 1st 1969 and from that day onwards this hol-iday became “Shanada day” to all that knew her. She passed on May 15th, 2014. Shannon was a loving wife (Gary), mother (Reanna, Lexi), daughter (Steve Butler and Sharlene Lindstrom), Sister (Rhonda), and friend.
Shannon was born with an infectious laugh, a wicked sense of humor and the ability to find the positive in most situations. She loved everything about life, nursing was her natural calling and she did it with pride, dignity, hon-or and always with a touch of grace. She always had the ability to make life long friendships and everyone that was touched by her presence will always remember her.
To celebrate her life, we are having a casual old fashioned potluck, wiener roast, campfire, pear cider drinking, get together in her backyard on June 28th.
Pop by between 1-5pm at 3817 Thomas St. As per her request, we do have a fun list of songs
to be played as we toast with green bottles in her honor. Please feel free to bring a photo with a story attached, if possible, as we are creating an album/guest book for the family to enjoy.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION NOTICE
Application for an Authorization to Discharge Waste under the Provisions of the Environmental Management ActWe, Seabridge Gold Inc. (1235 Main St. PO Box 2536, Smithers, BC V0J 2N0), intend to submit this application to the Director to authorize air emissions from five temporary project construction camps refuse incinerators. The sources of air emissions are from com-mercially available incinerators used to incinerate predominantly food waste from temporary construction camps.The land upon which the incinerators will be situated and the air emissions discharge will occur is Crown land, located at five KSM Project construction camps, including:
• Camp 4: Mitchell North and within Mining Lease Applications 4425548 and 4425550;• Camp 9/10: Mitchell Initial/Secondary situated within Mining Lease Applications 4425548 and 4425550;• Camp 5: Treaty Plant Camp /Treaty Operating Camp on mineral tenure 566484,• Camp 6: Treaty Saddle Camp, on Licence of Occupation application file 6408448;• Mitchell Operating Camp Licence of Occupation application file 6408591;
The KSM Mine Project is located approximately 65 km north of Stewart BC, within the Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine.The maximum waste expected per person per day is approximately 2.8 to 4.5 kg, and each camp varies in proposed person-capacity. Two incinerator models were selected for camps greater than 100 persons or less than 100 persons which operate in batches and have either a maximum operating capacity of 181 kg/batch (CA-100) or of 272 kg/batch (CA-600 from ECO Waste Solutions). Similar incinerators may be selected for installation. The operating period for these facilities will be approximately 5 -10 hours per day, seven days a week for approximately five years of mine construction, as per the table below.
a Based on emissions from a typical ECO Waste Solutions incinerator burning poultry and swine operating at load capacity.The characteristics of the emissions from the incinerators serving the largest camp on site (Camp 5 – 700 person camp) are shown in the table below. Values were estimated based on emissions from an ECO Waste Solutions model CA-600. Emissions from other camps will be proportionally lower based on their size (ie a 350 person camp has half the emissions of a 700 person camp, because it has half the number of people).
The types of treatment to be applied to the discharge are as follows: • The incinerators will be situated away and predominantly downwind from the camps. • No hazardous materials will be directed to the incinerator, a stringent solid waste management plan and recycling plan will be
implemented for all camps.• Ash produced after incineration will be stored and then buried in permitted landfills once the landfills are constructed.• A regular scheduled maintenance program will be followed to ensure the incinerator is operating according to specifications.
Any person who may be adversely affected by the proposed incineration of waste and wishes to provide relevant information may, within 30 days after the last date of posting, publishing, service or display, send written comments to the applicant, with a copy to the Regional Manager, Environmental Protection at PO Box 5000, 3726 Alfred Ave, Smithers, BC V0J 2N0. The identity of any respon-dents and the contents of anything submitted in relation to this application will become part of the public record.Dated this____________ day of________________________, 20____. ________________________ (Signature)Contact person: Jessy Chaplin, Permitting Coordinator (Telephone: 250-847-4704)

City closes in on Chinese deal
By JOSH MASSEY
TERRACE MAYOR Dave
Pernarowski says the city is
closing in on a deal which
would see a Chinese eco-
nomic development author-
ity purchase up to 1,000
acres of the city-controlled
Skeena Industrial Develop-
ment Park located just south
of the Northwest Regional
Airport.
Pernarowski returned
from a four-day trip to
China last week and while
there, signed what he called
a “progress report” which
built on an earlier memo-
randum of understanding
signed when a combined
city and Kitselas First Na-
tion delegation visited there
last November.
The deal would see one
or more Chinese manufac-
turing companies through
the Qinhuangdao Economic
and Technological De-
velopment Zone (QETDZ)
set up shop at the industrial
park. Negotiating details have
yet to be released but when
the Kitselas First Nation’s
Kitselas Development Cor-
poration bought 165 acres
at the park from the city
this year, the deal was worth
$1,647,700 or $10,000 an
acre.A recent report by the
corporation suggested its
holdings are now worth be-
tween $30,000 and $35,000
an acre for a value range of
between $5.1 million and $6
million for a parcel of land
that’s approximately one-
fifth the size wanted by the
QETDZ.
Helping broker the Ter-
race-Chinese land sales deal
is the provincial govern-
ment’s Major Investments
Office which first suggested
to the Chinese they consider
the industrial park here.
Pernarowski said it’s the
only trade deal of its kind
currently underway between
Canada and China.
“We are currently the
only project in Canada that
China is looking at right
now like this in terms of
moving into an industrial
park and developing out an
industrial park concept,”
said Pernarowski,
Pernarowski was accom-
panied on this latest trip by
city corporate lands manag-
er Herb Dusdal and Blaine
Moore from the Terrace
Economic Development
Authority.

THE RCMP is reviving a down-
town patrol aimed at curbing pub-
lic disorder following complaints
made by merchants and others.
Speaking at a meeting called
by city council May 21, Terrace
RCMP detachment commander
Inspector Dana Hart said two of-
ficers will be dedicated to foot
patrols during specific times.
Called a crime reduction unit,
the detachment at one time had
as many as four officers assigned
to downtown duty until they were
blended in with regular patrols a
year ago.
Although they did patrol on
foot, the unit also drove a marked
panel van in order to take arrest-
ed persons back to the detach-
ment. Bicycle patrols were also
used – another thing Hart said he
would like to see revived.
Aside from the crime reduc-
tion unit, Hart said he has is-
sued a challenge to his officers to
spend more time on the ground
patrolling the downtown core.
Hart stressed that while over-
all crime is on the decline in
Terrace, “there are people in the
downtown area making it diffi-
cult for people to go about their
business or feel safe going about
their business.”
He said that crime is some-
times a matter of perception – for
example, large groups of teen-
agers may appear intimidating
to the public, but they are not
always up to illegal activity, he
said. “It’s a balancing act,” he add-
ed, referencing the need to bal-
ance police work with privacy
and civil rights.
But an increased watch, with
more officers out at targeted peak
times, should help to combat the
issues downtown – for example,
people asking for money near
ATMs and being drunk in public,
he said, noting that the strategy
might cost the detachment more
in overtime while it is first imple-
mented, but should save money
over time.
He also asked that people call
in suspicious activity when they
see it, and noted that bringing
back a citizens on patrol contin-
gent would be “a huge benefit.”
Councillor James Cordeiro
said the activity downtown is the
worst he’s ever seen and he wel-
comes more police.
“Brolly Square seems to be
an epicenter of problems,” he
said of the public space on the
corner of Emerson and Lakelse.
“If there’s somebody patrolling
through there on a regular basis,
people aren’t going to want to
congregate there. I understand
they’re just going to move off to
somewhere else, but hopefully
they move out of town.”
He was speaking to the poten-
tial out-of-town criminal element
moving into town as develop-
ment increases.
“To me it has to be like, this
is not a place to come and be
idle and cause trouble and hang
out. Another city will be better
because in Terrace they don’t
tolerate it,” Cordeiro said. “It’s a
broad social issue that’s not go-
ing to be solved by the RCMP,
it’s not going to be solved this
summer, or the summer after
that. I guess I’m just being prag-
matic.”The issues do go beyond po-
licing, said Hart, and it will take
more than just more boots on the
ground. “What do we do to ad-
dress where they can be, what
they can be doing?” he said.
“That’s not a policing issue...
that’s an issue with housing, with
community services, with educa-
tion, health care, addictions.”
Hart added that it is some-
times difficult for officers to do
foot patrol downtown because
they are out on other calls.
Members spend a lot of time on
“counselling” calls and dealing
with repeat offenders, he said.
And a municipal bylaw offi-
cer would go a long way to free
up officer time, suggested Hart,
an idea council appeared open to
considering.

Energy development needs First NationsBy Martina PerryTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - First Na-tions participation is essential in building Canada for a better to-morrow.That was the message of Greg Rickford, Canada’s Min-ister of Natural Resources, who along with B.C. Minister of Ab-original Relations and Reconcili-ation John Rustad were in Prince Rupert May 27 to announce new measures put in place to ensure active participation from First Nations in the development of Canada’s energy resources.“We must take steps to en-sure that First Nations are part-ners in everything we do — from prevention and preparedness through to emergency response,”
said Rickford.“This will not only help to ensure that communities receive sustainable economic benefits, build confidence in local com-munities about how these sys-tems operate.”
“Here in B.C. we’re blessed with an abundance of natural re-sources that hold huge economic potential,” said Rustad.“The province wants to en-sure that all British Columbi-ans are able to benefit from this potential, particularly First Na-tions,” said Rustad.According to Rickford, the government is taking steps to enhance marine and pipeline safety, resulting in robust pre-vention, better preparedness and response, and improved liability and compensation in the event
of an incident. This includes in-creases in surveillance, inspec-tions and safety audits for both marine shipping and pipelines, modernizing navigation systems and the entire system of spill re-sponse, as well as new enforce-ment mechanisms.“We are ensuring that it is the polluter — not Canadians — who pay if an incident does oc-cur. This means companies will be accountable — and taxpayers protected — from bearing any potential costs,” Rickford said.The government also hopes to enhance First Nations partici-pation through the creation of the Major Projects Management Of-fice West (MPMP-West), and a tripartite forum initiative.Both measures come from Douglas Eyford’s final report, the
man the Prime Minister appoint-ed as a Special Federal Represen-tative for West Coast Energy In-frastructure a year ago.By providing an on-the-ground presence, MPMO-West will coordinate government en-gagement with First Nations and industry by facilitating ongoing dialogue to better understand perspectives on issues such as employment, business opportu-nities and environmental stew-ardship and safety.The tripartite forum allow the federal and provincial gov-ernments and B.C. First Nations leaders to “share information, identify common interests and align efforts on issues” and will be supported by MPMO-West through the coordination of ac-tivities.

HIGH SCHOOL senior Cam-eron Netzel didn’t do as well as he’d hoped at the � nal track provincials of his high school career – but he might have helped saved a dog’s life.
After being eliminated from high jump – his main event – earlier than anticipated at pro-vincial championships in Lang-ley two weekends ago, Netzel headed to the car to grab his lunch and sort his gear when he heard a dog barking in distress.
“I heard this dog barking and crying and yelping,” said Netzel, speaking last week at Caledonia Secondary School. He and another man who was in the area searched around and found a black SUV with a choc-olate lab-type dog inside.
“It was hot,” he said, noting it was 27 degrees without a cloud in the sky. “I spilled water on the seat and within 30 seconds the water was evaporated.”Netzel said “the windows were cracked but not nearly enough, so I slid my arm in, unlocked the window, let the dog out and went and told someone.”
When an announcement didn’t produce the owner, Net-zel called the RCMP – a process that his coach, Dighton Haynes, said led to the police phoning Netzel’s parents to make sure it wasn’t a prank call.
The RCMP and the owner arrived (the owner none too
happy about the attention nor the fact that Netzel unlocked her car, said Haynes), with the RCMP and spectators tell-ing Netzel that he did the right thing.
“Had the police arrived be-fore Cameron broke into the car, they would have smashed a window,” said Haynes.
But while Netzel returned to Terrace with a story to tell, he didn’t return with the results he’d hoped.
“I just didn’t jump that good,” he said. “It was kind of disappointing. It was still fun, but...”
Netzel, who also plays bas-ketball and volleyball, placed 11th in high jump, down from the third place � nish he’d hoped for.
“Just had an off day,” he said. “I could have done bet-ter, but hopefully I still do track after (high school) at college or university.”
Netzel’s been involved in track and � eld throughout his high school career, one of a small group to regularly travel to provincial meets. He said he got into the sport because of his older brother.
“You know brother rival-ries,” he said. “Do whatever sports he did and try to beat him.”

Teen triathletes qualify for Summer GamesTHREE YOUNG Terrace tri-athletes have begun training for the BC Summer Games after qualifying late last month at the Kermode Kids’ Triathlon.
Avery Movold, Kleanza Cathers, and Harlene Takhar will be travelling with coach Crystal Thomas to the games, held in Nanaimo in mid-July.
“We’ll train a few days a week,” said Thomas, of the girls’ routine. “We’ll get some good � tness on bike and run, because really, those girls are all good swimmers because they swim with the swim club.”
At the games, the athletes will compete in a series of events – an aquathlon (swim and run) and a duathlon (bike and run) to warm up, and then � nishing with the triathlon.
An FI Triathlon, with a 200 m swim, 3 km bike, and 1 km
run will also be included this year. These youth races are draft-legal super-sprint dis-tance races designed to provide an entry-level experience in the draft-legal format, accord-ing to the BC Summer Games website, and training will be provided.
And the northwest team typ-ically comes home with at least one medal.
“It’s kind of cool to see these kids get medals,” said Thomas. “But medal or no medal, it’s pretty great to go and have that experience and be a part of it.”
The 2014 BC Games marks triathlon’s 7th appearance in the games. The BC Summer Games sees 14- and 15-year-olds from around the province compete every two years.
This year’s games runs July 17 - 20.

Pete Broomhall is a tall, long-legged fellow who had a lot of trouble with conventional chest waders because their crotches came to his
knees. He solved this problem by cutting off the feet of the world’s first stocking foot waders, Seal Dris, which he then glued to the tops of a solid pair of gum boots using contact cement.
Seal Dris were the first latex wader. They were seamless. Latex was quite flex-ible, conferring more mobility upon their wearer. The downside to the seamless latex construction was that punctures that could easily turn into giant tears were a constant worry. Pete wore a pair of light rain pants overtop his waders in response to this problem.
Inspired by Pete Broomhall’s example, I ordered a pair of Seal Dris.
Thirty years ago, $150 dollars was a lot of money. When I added the price of a decent pair of gumboots and a pair of rain pants, I’d spent just over $200 dollars for the waders. I don’t know exactly how much that would be in 21st century loot, but I suspect it would be about twice that amount.
Easily the most flexible and comfort-able wader I’d worn until that time, they were worth every penny. Pete told me he got six seasons out of a pair of Seal Dris that were more patch than wader when he was through with them. I wore mine for half that, which was longer than any other
wader had lasted me. Sunlight and ozone
eventually ate away at the latex and my Seal Dris began to rot. I or-dered a new pair that lasted almost as long, then neoprene waders arrived on the scene and the Krene Company stopped producing their latex waders.
It’s surprising that nobody had thought of using neoprene for waders earlier since the material was invented by scientists working for DuPont in 1930. Originally marketed as Duprene, neoprene was produced through the polymerization of chloroprene to produce a synthetic rubber material that is light, strong, and a terrific insulator.
Because it contains closed cells, neo-prene had the additional benefit to anglers of providing floatation, a vital safety fea-ture in the event of an unintentional dip in the river. The first neoprene waders fit like casing on a sausage, which made them dif-ficult to put on and take off, but soon they appeared with a lining that took care of that problem.
Neoprene waders were warm, a bless-
ing for steelheaders since they spend almost all their fishing time standing in cold rivers in weather ranging from cool to cold. Some mod-els came with boots at-tached, but these were in the minority. Most had stocking feet, necessitat-ing the purchase of wad-ing boots.
Stocking foot waders are safer insofar as the wading boots one wears with them are normally felted or have cleats (or, in some cases, have both) and offer more ankle support. The draw-backs to them are that they wear more quickly
and, being tighter, they reduce circulation to the feet and they afford no room for air, the best insulator against the cold.
Unless they are a perfect fit, and even then to a degree, neoprene waders are less elastic than the newer so-called breathable materials, and because of the nature of the material it can be devilishly difficult to find leaks in them, but easy to patch them once they are located.
The latest thing in outdoor wear is breathable material. This is stuff that is re-puted to keep water out while simultane-
ously exhaling sweat, a miraculous quality indeed. The many breathable waders I have owned are amazingly light weight and offer more freedom of movement that any of their predecessors. Unfortunately, they are frail.
To date I have worn waders made by Pa-tagonia, Simms, Gray’s, Protac, and Hodg-man. I haven’t torn or punctured any of them, yet they have all leaked, some after only a few outings. Most of the leaks have been along the seams, some have been in the material, and in two cases the stocking feet turned into sponges.
After all this testing, talking to guides, retailers, and the manufacturers, I have come to the conclusion that breathable waders have a longevity of approximately 150 days. That may not seem like a long time, but for an avid angler living in the Lower Mainland it represents three to five years. For a fishing guide or someone like me who fishes over a 100 days a year, breathable waders will last about a year.
Simms makes a wader that costs $900, including taxes, that they claim will last longer. I’m not willing to pay close to a grand and take a chance especially since the material they are made from appears to be identical to the stuff all the other leaky breathables I have are made from. In fact, the most durable breathable waders I’ve owned were the least expensive.
Now I wear neoprene waders in the winter. For the rest of the year I buy cheap breathables and two tubes of glue.

TERRACE’S NORTHMEN saw a rough rugby match against the Wil-liams Lake Rustlers two weekends ago at the Northwest Community College field, but ultimately rallied during the second half to finish with a 19-19 draw.
“A win would have been nicer but it was a hard fought game,” said Northman Adam Linteris of the May 31 game. “Better to take a tie than a loss.”
The team came out a little flat to start, but as the game progressed the Northmen found their rhythm and fought back against the strong Williams Lake squad.
“Williams Lake brought a pret-ty tough team,” said Linteris. “It was definitely not their best squad but they were very good and came out playing really strong.”
The turning point for the North-men came in the second half.
“We subbed some players in and put in Carlin Wilkins and he kind of took control of our back line and started putting pressure on Williams Lake from there,” said Linteris.
The team’s back line is one of the Northmen’s strongest assets, and they were having a “little big of trouble that day,” he said. “Luckily our four pack kind of kept us going and everyone played well in the end.”
Wilkins would go on to be named player of the game and back of the game, with Ryan Watson taking forward of the game.
The game was very physical and the team struggled with their flow to start.
“We were kind of in a 7s mind-set, so things just weren’t flow-ing the way they should have in
15s,” Linteris said. “We’ve got a few things to work on in the next two weeks to get ready for Prince George. But it was good, we know
exactly where are weak points are now and we can clean that up.”
The team meets Prince George for their second official league
game at Seafest in Prince Rupert June 14. The Northmen will also play another couple of exhibition 10s games over the weekend.

SKEENA MIDDLE School Grade 9 Tyler Dozzi had a solid finish at track and field provincials in Langley two weekends ago, finishing 9th after placing second in his heat and fourth overall going into the finals for the 1500m men’s junior run.
“He did really well,” said senior teammate Cameron Netzel. “His qualifying time was 4:16, which is crazy for a Grade 9.”
His final time was 4:19.22 – nearly 15 seconds faster than the 4:34.25 he finished with at zones to qualify for provin-cials.
And he placed 6th in his other long distance run, the 3000m men’s junior, with a time of 9:21.73 – over 20 sec-onds faster than the 9:43.45 he qualified with at zones.
The third athlete to repre-sent Terrace at provincials was senior athlete Tea Archibald from Caledonia.
She bested her qualifying time in the senior women 100 m dash (14.04 over 14.30) and senior women triple jump (8.96 m final vs. 9.35 m quali-fier) to finish 28 and 22 re-spectively.

“This demonstrates that when proponents take the Nisga’a Na-tion’s interests and con-cerns seriously, prac-tical agreements can be reached in a timely manner. We are now counting on the provin-cial and federal govern-ments to fulfill their re-sponsibilities under our treaty in respect of this and other projects in our area,” he said.
Newly-appointed Avanti president Gor-don Bogden said the company is confident the mine will deliver “meaningful benefits to all parties, including Nisga’a individuals and businesses.”
“And we look for-ward to growing this partnership,” said Bog-den.
In addition to the revenue sharing deal with Avanti, the Nisga’a are also in talks with the provincial government for a share of the mine’s taxation revenues.
That follows a pol-icy of the province to forward mining tax revenues to aboriginal governments from ei-ther new mines or ones which have expanded.
Avanti has been us-ing a $50 million loan taken out last year to ready itself to being construction as soon as final financing, federal environmental approval
and provincial mine permits are in place.
The Kitsault location has been the location of previous molybdenum mining operations.
The last featured a town built for miners and their families in the late 1970s. But it closed in 1982 when molybde-num prices crashed.
Avanti bought the property in 2008.
The purchase agree-ment between Terrace and Superior Lodg-ing states the city must provide this certificate to Superior Lodging to satisfy the final condi-tions before the money changes hands.
“Any changes to that would have to be nego-tiated between Superior Lodging and the city,” stated a statement from the city.
The former gas bar site isn’t actually on the land Superior intends to purchase. However since it is all technically part of the same proper-ty, subdividing it and re-moving the gas bar site would require the ap-proval of the province, the statement added.
“They won’t do that since it’s a contaminat-ed site,” the statement said. “So we need this site cleaned up to move forward and allow de-velopment on the prop-erty.”
Last year Superior Lodging vice presi-dent Eric Watson said it helps to secure bank financing if the certifi-cate of compliance is in place.
Watson said in a re-cent e-mail that “we remain committed to doing a hotel (or two) in Terrace.”
Carslon says Feder-ated Co-op was clear about expectations for the full cleanup of the site, and that the city is now asking for the process to happen faster than first planned.
“The city bought it
knowing exactly what the issues were, know-ing exactly what the timeline issues were, and it was after they purchased it they want-ed something different,” he said. “Council de-cided to buy it and the next thing you know we had a call from the city saying ‘can you clean it up this year so we can build on it’ and we said ‘no.’”
To get a clean bill of health in place fast-er, excavating large amounts of soil is pos-sible, but Carlson said this could cost in the millions.
“We elected to pro-ceed with a finesse-based science project where you can do the same thing over time for less money and that’s what we are do-ing,” he said.
“There’s always a risk it could be lon-ger than five years,” he added.
Carslon believes a third option could see the environmental due diligence satisfied with-
out necessarily rushing the clean-up.
An example would be to install a vapour shield in the building which would separate the earth from the build-ing to block passage of the contaminants, he said.
By working around the contamination he said projects can be given environmental clearance for the con-struction before the cer-tificate of compliance is granted.
“There is nothing to stop the city from doing a development on that property because cer-tainly the impacts that are there I don’t think would be problematic for someone to engineer around,” said Carslon. “Stuff like that is done all the time with brown field development. It means the city would have to work with the
consultant and develop a strategy for redevel-opment that respects the impact issues and move forward [with the sale].”
He said the alterna-tive would be if Supe-rior Lodging decided to buy the land as is and incorporate the environ-mental safeguards in its development plan.
“The big issue that I see is pressuring a vol-unteer party to come to the table and do more than they are already doing which gets to be a little bit unreasonable, quite frankly,” Carlson said, adding that the city needs to put “some skin in the game”.
The city said it has been working with Golder Associates try-ing to figure out a strat-egy. It is also looking at applying for a federal grant that would cover two thirds of the cost of the cleanup.

A LOCAL company is supply-ing the radio communications network for one of the planned pipelines to carry natural gas to a planned liquefied natural gas facility at Kitimat.
It’s the largest contract of its kind to date for Coast Moun-tain Wireless, explains company president Rob Dykman.
Already two of the 10 com-munications shelters designed by Coast Mountain are in position along the planned route.
A third is nearly ready to go and the others will follow as the installation project moves along.
The network will provide two UHF radio communications channels – one for the supervi-sors and managers along the project length and the other for first aid.
“Health and safety is a huge factor nowadays,” said Dykman of the latter communications channel.
The exact locations depend upon the geography with ones in mountainous areas closer togeth-er to ensure service.
Each of the shelters weighs 5,000 pounds, meaning a heavy lift helicopter is needed to put them in place.
“We used the same heli-copter brought in last year for
the [Northwest] Transmission Line towers,” said Dykman. “At $10,000 an hour, you don’t want to waste any time.”
The aluminum shelters were made by a lower mainland firm with Dykman’s firm handling the design and installation of the equipment inside.
Solar panels on the roof and one attached to each side of the south-facing wall provide power to deep-cycle batteries.
“We have two banks of batter-ies so if there’s trouble with one, we have a redundancy,” he said.
The battery capability is such that three months worth of ser-vice is possible if, for some rea-son, the solar panels can’t gener-ate power.
Two-inch custom rods embed-ded into rock with the help of a drill will anchor each shelter’s four corners.
“With the kind of weather you can get on a mountain top, you want to be stable,” said Dykman.
A separate communications link will connect each shelter with the Coast Mountains office in Terrace so that performance can be monitored.
Dykman’s particularly pleased that 80 per cent of each shelter project was obtained by a B.C. firm and that the list in-
cludes local suppliers“These shelters will be in ser-
vice long after the pipeline is fin-ished,” said Dykman. “They can be used when crews are doing checks on the line.”
Coast Mountain was once called Tower Radio Ltd. and the name was changed two years ago.
The original company got its start in Houston, B.C.
The overall pace of industrial and other activity in the area has seen Coast Mountain Wireless add four employees in the past three months.
And the increase in business also means a move for the com-pany.
It’s now located in a building on Kalum on the southside but has recently secured new prem-ises in Thornhill, adding to the growth of that community’s busi-ness sector.
The premises were purpose-built in 2011 for River Wild Salmon Inc., a local fish process-ing enterprise featuring backing from the American Patagonia clothing company.
Its products included smoked salmon.
But a limited fishing season last year because of low numbers caused the enterprise to close.
THE ADDITION of a third aircraft parking spot in front of the Northwest Regional Airport terminal building should help ease passenger waiting, says its manager.
That’s because the airport will be able to handle three passenger aircraft at once, says Carman Hendry.
A $250,000 grant from the North-ern Development Initiative Trust will help contribute to the approximate $1 million cost of the third parking stand and associated work.
“We got into the black three years ago and in 2012 began to build a capi-tal projects reserve,” said Hendry of the rest of the project financing.
He expects the parking spot, which consists of a specially-engineered 30-inch deep concrete pad designed to
hold the weight of an aircraft, pas-sengers and fuel, to be finished by the end of October.
Asphalt is not a good base on which to park aircraft because their weight will create grooves during warmer weather periods and the as-phalt will erode over time because of minor fuel and other leaks, he said.
In the meantime, Hendry said the busy nature of the airport means pas-sengers need to arrive at least one hour before their flights and to have gone through security at least 45 min-utes before departure.
“And check your bags right away when you’ve finished at the ticket counter. Don’t have a coffee first.”
The improving economy has re-sulted in passenger traffic increases.
