International Union of Operating Engineers Local 882B representing city workers in Williams Lake says there is no use going to mediation right now. “Mediation is a tool that both sides use after they’ve negotiated in good faith. There are some items that you end up with that you cannot agree on, that’s when you go to media- tion to try and resolve those points,” said union representative John Dube Wednesday. “But we’re not even close to that because every time we go back to the table and they say they want to nego- tiate, their stance hasn’t changed.” Union business manager Saundra Taylor said the union did go to me- diation to establish essential service levels because the two sides could not agree, but agreed with Dube say- ing the two sides are not at a stale- mate so mediation is not the answer. “All they have to do is start deal- ing with our proposals and giving us some incentive. They want to deal with all of their proposals and then they’ll deal with ours. We only have about five or six proposals left on the table,” Taylor said. The city is adamant the union take roll backs, Dube added. “They tell us that parts of the col- lective agreement are not sustainable anymore, while they keep giving themselves raises and bettering their benefits at any given time.” The union said it has signed off on approximately 80 employer pre- sented proposals and come up with “creative” solution to most of the employer’s demands “Over the last few years we’ve been signing off agreements with the understanding that they would all go into the collective agreement,” Tay- lor said. Mayor Kerry Cook said the strike is unfortunate and that she wants to the two sides to get back to the table. “I really believe having a third party would benefit moving the dis- cussions forward,” she said.

International Union of Operating Engineers Local 882B representing city workers in Williams Lake says there is no use going to mediation right now.

“Mediation is a tool that both sides use after they’ve negotiated in good faith. There are some items that you end up with that you cannot agree on, that’s when you go to media-tion to try and resolve those points,” said union representative John Dube Wednesday.

“But we’re not even close to that because every time we go back to the table and they say they want to nego-tiate, their stance hasn’t changed.”

Union business manager Saundra Taylor said the union did go to me-diation to establish essential service levels because the two sides could not agree, but agreed with Dube say-ing the two sides are not at a stale-mate so mediation is not the answer.

“All they have to do is start deal-ing with our proposals and giving us some incentive. They want to deal with all of their proposals and then they’ll deal with ours. We only have about five or six proposals left on the table,” Taylor said.

The city is adamant the union take

roll backs, Dube added.“They tell us that parts of the col-

lective agreement are not sustainable anymore, while they keep giving themselves raises and bettering their benefits at any given time.”

The union said it has signed off on approximately 80 employer pre-sented proposals and come up with “creative” solution to most of the employer’s demands

“Over the last few years we’ve been signing off agreements with the understanding that they would all go into the collective agreement,” Tay-lor said.

Mayor Kerry Cook said the strike is unfortunate and that she wants to the two sides to get back to the table.

“I really believe having a third party would benefit moving the dis-cussions forward,” she said.

Around 60 people, most of them city union workers, attended the city council meeting Tuesday to see whether council would discuss the strike.

It wasn’t on the agenda, but May-or Kerry Cook addressed the crowd at the beginning, acknowledging it was very clear people were upset.

Wednesday morning Cook said it was apparent there is a lot of un-certainty and a lot of misinformation being circulated.

“We are committed to clarify information so people can be in-formed,” she said, adding the city is willing to negotiate and wants a fair agreement for its workers. “There are outstanding issues that need to be addressed and the sooner the union gets back to the table, the sooner we’ll be able to work through these issues.”

Lac la Hache blaze causes minor damage

Members challenged to encourage accessibility

A chimney fire at a home in Lac la Hache on Feb. 13 spread and resulted in two separate spot fires in the house before they were quick-ly extinguished by local fire departments.

Lac la Hache Volun-teer Fire Department (LLHVFD) chief Terry Murphy notes that upon arrival, crews found the blaze had ignited

the floor joists and the trusses in the attic space around the chimney, so firefighters worked to douse those and the burning chimney.

“It was quickly sup-pressed. There was some minor damage to the interior of the house.”

The call came in at 6:57 a.m. and his crew responded with nine members and three trucks.

They also received

mutual aid from 108 Mile Ranch Volun-teer Fire Department (five members and two trucks) and Greeny Lake Volunteer Fire Department (three members and one truck).

RCMP and BC Am-bulance Service also attended.

Murphy notes the male resident was able to go back inside the home once the fire was out.

“[The house] wasn’t that badly damaged. We knocked it down pretty fast, so there’s smoke damage and a little bit of water damage, but he was staying there.”

Murphy adds his crews were back at the hall by 9:30 a.m., and then he returned mid-day and checked for hot spots, while Emer-gency Support Services volunteers met briefly with the homeowner to offer assistance.

Members of the Wil-liams Lake Construc-tion Association can help encourage acces-sibility, the city’s acces-sibility committee chair George Atamanenko challenged members of the association at their monthly meeting in February.

The mission state-ment of the accessibility committee is to remove the physical and social barriers that impede

the full participation of persons with disabilities in all aspects of life, he said.

“Key to your asso-ciation is what kind of housing do you see might be beneficial to our people here? It’s seniors housing but it’s also for all walks of life and ages,” he said.

Atamanenko encour-aged members to con-sider nominating people for the Williams Lake Annual Accessibility Award.

“We’re soliciting

businesses, individuals or organizations who are having accessibil-ity upgrades to their old homes or buildings. One of the latest awards was given to Dr. Was-senaar who on his own accord did ramps and upgrades to make inter-nal washrooms and the area more accessible.”

The committee thought it was a good example and city coun-cil accepted the nomi-nation.

“You might know personally of projects

that have been reno-vated up to accessibility standards that you are welcome to nominate. Or it may even twig some ideas when you are asked to do renova-tions to perhaps con-sider wider doorways that a wheelchair can go into or making sure that people will be able to function with wheel-chairs or canes,” said city manager of active living Deb Radolla.

Nominations will be accepted until the end of March, she added.

Union says city misrepresenting truthThe International

Union of Operating En-gineers says a press re-lease issued by the city on Feb. 13 misrepre-sented the truth “in an at-tempt to win over public support.”

Subsequently the union has prepared four bulletins of its own and has distributed them to union members, the me-dia and the general pub-lic.

On Friday union busi-ness manager Saundra Taylor told the Tribune to hold off on publish-ing the first two releases, saying the union didn’t want to “fight fire with fire.”

That changed Monday when she realized how angry workers are and that many are sharing stories of dissatisfaction.

“They’re pushing our backs against the wall,” Taylor said.

Tuesday’s Tribune shared some of the

union’s concerns with the city’s press releases.

Specifically the re-quest for an increase to per diem rates and the fact that management has opted for a different benefits plan than the one the city said is “very fair” for union employees.

On Wednesday morn-ing union representative John Dube responded to the city’s estimation that $250,000 is expended on call-out pay annually and that “many call outs require an hour, or less, of work.”

“You can be guaran-teed those call outs are going to be more than four hours. Most of the time they’re in there for 14 or 15 hours,” Dube said, adding 90 per cent of employees take it in time, rather than money.

“Over-time is the cost of doing business.

“What they’re not say-ing is when they call our people in at 3 a.m. and someone goes in and fixes something, they want to pay them for one

hour. “By the time we get

called in, get up, get in our vehicle, go fix what you have to fix, you’ve been awake for a few hours so you’re not go-ing to be able to go right back to sleep.

“The city has to make it worthwhile for em-ployees to go in for those emergencies, or they’re not going to go in for work and the public will suffer.”

The union said the city is correct that they have increased boot allowanc-es, however, the union feels a small increase of $50 will leave some workers still having to put money out of their own pocket to purchase safety footwear.

“When you work outside you need boots for summer and winter. You’re looking at $500 a year. When we settle this contract will be get-

ting $200. We’re still out $300, but we appreciate that they gave us a raise,” Dube said.

As for the increase in rates to the working foreman and lead hand the city mentioned, the union said there are a couple of workers who would see an increase to their wages of 35 cents and 20 cents per hour re-spectively.

“That pay rate hasn’t gone up in the last ten

years,” Dube added.Union members’ eight

sick days cannot be ac-cumulated from year to year, so the union has proposed that workers with small children be able to be at home with them while they are sick.

Most contracts have a provision that allows for family emergencies for up to five days.

The city said it would be willing to sign off on a memorandum of under-

standing for core servic-es which ensures 28 po-sitions are guaranteed no layoffs, but that it would require movement from the union on the call-out pay issue.

“We were told at the bargaining table they were using that MOU as a bargaining chip,” Dube said. “They have to un-derstand we’re not play-ing games. We’re dealing with people’s lives. It’s as simple as that.”

City workers could lose health and welfare benefits in protracted strike

Striking city employ-ees in Williams Lake will have their health and welfare benefits covered until the end of this month.

The city’s manager of human resources Ashley Williston said Wednes-day the city is billed by the benefit carrier at the end of each month.

“We haven’t paid for them yet and will pay for them at the end of the month. I spoke to the broker and we did have a choice not to continue with them, but we decid-ed our employees should be carried to the end of

the month so they can make arrangements.”

International Union of Operating Engineers business manager Saun-dra Taylor said the union told the city it is intimi-dating the workers by threatening to cut off benefits.

“Moments after we walked away from the table Monday our mem-bers were being told they were getting cut off.”

“We told the city they better rethink terminat-ing benefits because while employees are working for essential services they should be covered. We’ve got an essential service order and a global order, not

all of them are essential. They want mechanics on standby, they want water guys on standby in case

there are emergencies, workers at the complex, and we agreed to all that.”

Williston said the city is still working on the logistics of essential worker benefits.

Union representative John Dube said on one hand the city says in the media that it wants to deal fairly with and values the employees for the work they do, but now it wants to cut people off their ben-efits.

“Employers in general don’t do that. You’re af-fecting people with fam-ilies and kids,” he said.

Besides, Taylor add-ed, it’s a costly night-mare for the employer to reinstate benefits later.

When asked if the union will pick up the cost, Dube said it’s not in the union’s constitu-tion to cover benefit costs.

“The city is trying to shift the responsibility, rather than concentrat-ing on trying to get a re-solve here,” Dube said.

Williston said it is common with other pub-lic sector unions that they would cover the benefit costs and that the city is completely open to continuing with ben-efits if the union agrees to pay the costs.

“That’s the nor-mal process with most unions,” she said.

Taylor agreed the La-bour Code says the city can pull out of covering benefits, but in her expe-rience she hasn’t seen it done in other communi-ties.

Big lake community to discuss community forest plan Sunday

The proposed City of Williams Lake and Williams Lake Indian Band community for-est project will be the topic of discussion at a meeting this Sun-day, Feb. 24 at the Big Lake Community Hall.

Community mem-bers from Big Lake, Miocene and Horsefly have said the proposal does not address the serious concerns re-peatedly raised by the residents in their com-munities.

Big Lake-Horsefly-Miocene Community Forest Working Group members Ross Mc-Coubrey, David Zirn-helt, Jack Darney, Sam Zirnhelt, Bee Hooker and Cecil Morhart note in a press release that 84 per cent of the proposed area and 94 per cent of the har-vest proposed is de-rived from the forest area around Big Lake, Horsefly and Mio-cene.

“The opportunities the proponents have proposed through which our communi-ties would participate in management de-cisions and receive economic benefits are unacceptable,” the re-lease says.

“For example, they want the rural com-munities to accept a small percentage of net revenues that they

would have to apply for through a grants program. They asked the CRD to approve their grant program proposal without the courtesy of discussing it with the communi-ties first and they have refused to share the business plan which might give an indica-tion of what revenues they intend to gener-ate.”

Another point of contention is that de-cisions about board appointments and how profits from the com-munity forests would be spent were made in-camera by the City of Williams Lake.

“That is no way to start a “community forest,” the working group said.

Last week the group invited representa-tives from the city, the band and the Ministry of Forests to attend the meeting.

Mayor Kerry Cook said she is interested in meeting with the communities, but had already made commit-ments for the week-end and won’t be able to attend.

Mike Pedersen, district manager with C a r i b o o - C h i l c o t i n Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations will attend the meet-ing. However, since the proponent’s ap-plication may change dramatically to ad-dress community is-

sues, he says his min-istry remains neutral until the final applica-tion and management plan is submitted.

As part of the pro-cess to get a com-munity forest, the proponents must dem-onstrate that there is a high level of com-munity awareness and support for the appli-cation from a broad cross-section of the community, so the city and band were asked to gather letters of support.

The working group said the proponents know they don’t have the support of the ru-ral communities.

“In a recent attempt to demonstrate that they do have some support they’ve sent a request to specific individuals and orga-nizations asking them to write letters of support. Those folks need to be aware of our concerns and pro-posed solutions.”

In December the Tribune asked if the ministry would be meeting with the com-munities to hear their concerns and was told at that time “yes.”

On Wednesday, however, the minis-try confirmed it had postponed a meet-ing scheduled prior to Christmas because it didn’t have a com-plete Community Forest Agreement application from the proponent.

CHAMBERCHATTER

Page 6: Williams Lake Tribune, February 21, 2013

I’d like to say that there are some interesting things in the budget tabled in the Leg-

islature this week, but I can’t bring myself to get excited because this budget will never be passed into law.

That’s the problem with pre-election budgets: we can’t know if they’re real or not because they don’t get debated, and governments know they won’t be held accountable to them. Basically, they must be treated as a political promise from a party that wants your vote in a couple of

months.That’s

why I’ve j o i n e d w i t h I n d e -pendent

MLAs Vicki Huntington and John van Dongen to call for the fixed election date to be changed to the fall, starting with the next election in 2017. We’d still go to the polls this spring, but moving the fixed election date to the fall for future contests will allow spring budgets to be fully debated and implemented. I intro-duced a Private Member’s Bill this week to change future election dates.

So far, the NDP, Green Party and BC Conservatives have supported our call to change the election date to the fall, and I hope the Liberals will support this legislation as well.

I do have to give the government some credit for their budget, because it admits that tax increases are nec-essary if we have any hope of bal-ancing the books while continuing to provide robust public services. Realistically, however, there is no way the budget presented this week would balance our finances by the end of 2014. Now that the govern-ment has put their throne speech, budget, and election platform for-ward, the focus must turn to the man who wants to be our next premier: Opposition Leader Adrian Dix.

After a week of telling the media that the Liberal Party has lost the moral right to govern and ought to be voted out of office, the NDP now have no excuses — they must pro-vide an alternative vision and budget for BC as soon as possible so vot-ers can make an informed choice on May 14th.

Our Viewpoint

Bob Simpson

What really makes us healthy?

Over to you, Mr. Dix

What do you think of when you hear the term health care? If

you are like most people you think of hospitals and clinics where doc-tors, nurses and other health care providers treat people who are sick. Health care is not just about treat-ing the sick its about promoting and supporting those things that keep us well.

For many years there has been an ‘individual lifestyle choices’ ap-proach to health promotion. We have all heard the messages about eating healthy and getting regular exercise, yet changes don’t happen easily. It’s time we took a closer look at how truly difficult it can be to do these seemingly simple things. For exam-ple, being able to make the choice to eat healthy depends on knowing what healthy eating is, the availabil-ity of healthy food where one lives, having enough money to purchase healthy foods, and the ability and time to prepare healthy meals.

When all these factors are taken into account the modest directive to ‘eat healthy’ becomes quite com-plex! What if I live in a community where fresh produce is not always available? What if I am a single par-ent working two jobs and I depend on processed convenience foods? Research tells us people who have more money and education are generally much healthier than less educated people or those struggling with poverty. The social determi-nants of health are the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work, play, and age; they affect the health of us all. They include things like income and social status, so-cial support networks, education, employment/working conditions, physical environments, and child development.

We can dramatically improve the health of our population if we can affect the social and economic conditions in which we live. IH has recently launched the Healthy Com-munities Initiative a partnership project between IH and local gov-ernments that aims to improve the health of residents by addressing the social determinants of health.

Williams Lake Mayor Kerry Cook’s column was not available.

Go Candians, go. Eh?

Don’t look now but it seems as if Canadians are making their way up the international ladder.

The latest example comes inadvertently via the unexpected resignation of Pope Benedict XVI.

An early and, if you believe the bookies, odds-on-favourite replacement is Marc Cardinal Ouellet of Quebec. Just 68, youngish when considering the ages of others who have become the leaders of the Catholic church, Cardinal Ouellet is considered by many to have the right kind of experience to lead the church in the next decades.

Next up is Mark Carney, who is leaving his job as governor of the Bank of Canada to take a similar but extremely challenging job as the governor of the Bank of England.

Mr. Carney must find a way to prudently nudge a

sluggish British economy into action.Now look up. Way up. There’s astronaut Chris

Hadfield, the first Canadian to command the Inter-national Space Station.

His photos of Earth are stunning portrayals of not only our planet’s geography but the extent of the human footprint on its fragile surface.

Now we only need to correct the International Olympic Committee’s wrongful dismissal of free style wrestling (remember Carol Huynh of Hazel-ton and Daniel Igali of Surrey) as a core Olympic sport.

Once that’s accomplished, all will be right with the world, the Canadian world, that is.

Free press can, of course, be good or bad, but, most certainly without freedom, the press will never be anything but bad. - Albert Camus

Page 7: Williams Lake Tribune, February 21, 2013

For many years, I’ve been on-record stating that in spite of February being the shortest calendar-month — it feels like the lengthiest on many a Cariboo cattle-outfit!

Further proof of that theory was evidenced, somewhat in-directly, by the large turnout of cattle producers in attendance at two separate events last week in Williams Lake.

On Valentine’s Day, at the BC Livestock Co-op cattle yards/auction there was hardly a park-ing spot to be found in their huge

lot. Inside, the bleachers were

crowded with local-producers who chatted happily over cof-fee/lunch as the sale proceeded. Some did a little homework — checking prices (slightly de-

pressed) as the cattle rambled through the ring.

Fast forward to the next morn-ing at the annual general meeting of the Cariboo Cattlemen’s Asso-ciation.

By 11 a.m. (start time) — there was another full house which also included (besides cattlemen) various government employees (different branches), agri-busi-ness representatives (sponsors of the meeting/coffee breaks, lunch, beverages), Cariboo Regional District staff, bankers and politi-cians — all of whom have a di-

rect link with, or vested interest in the cattle industry.

One newsworthy item came with the Cariboo Cattlemen’s As-sociation — president’s report, given by current president Dun-can Barnett, who concluded his presentation with the advisory that he would be stepping down as association president.

Barnett is the NDP candidate for the Cariboo-North riding, running in the upcoming (May) election and requires more time for his election campaign.

The organization (CCA-BC-

CA) will miss (among other things) Barnett’s organizational skills and efficient chairmanship and knowledge of procedure, his intelligence and ability to sift through and decipher miles of documentation and ability to sort the chaff from the grain — the members are appreciative of the time and energy that Duncan gave to their issues.

Elections (for CCA directors) concluded the meeting, it was nice to see a couple of young fellows (sans grey-hair) elected. Spring is in the air!

Question of the week

Barnett’s organization and leadership will be missed

Obligations to taxpayer more important than donations

Editor:

As many of us are aware, Taseko Mines Ltd. is the proponent of the proposed copper-gold mine at Fish Lake in the Chilcotin.

The project is currently going through the federal environmental review process by the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agen-cy.

Taseko has recently donated $5,000 to a community event and has also sponsored some local busi-

nesses, and this seems quite gener-ous.

However, according to two sepa-rate articles by Larry Pynn in the Vancouver Sun (Dec. 18, 2012), Taseko still owes the federal gov-ernment somewhere between $282,386 and $392,694 from its bill for the first environmental as-sessment (Prosperity Mine) in 2010.

Apparently, the federal govern-ment and Taseko Mines have been in discussions regarding payment

for the balance owing.One wonders why a company

would give money away while it still owes funds to the federal gov-ernment.

It would seem best and prudent for Taseko to pay off its debt ob-ligations to the Canadian taxpayer before giving donations in the com-munities affected by the proposed mine at Fish Lake.

Patricia Spencer108 Mile Ranch

Let factual information countEditor: The arguments put forward

against the Prosperity mine proj-ect by many of the anti-mine people hinges on, their argument that Taseko does not have the technology or is not capable of preventing contamination from leaking from the Prosperity site.

That is like buying a new bath tub and complaining that you don’t think your new tub can hold water.

In the real world, we expect that the tub will not leak, as we must surely expect that the min-ing industry is equally capable.

Taseko, as with many indus-tries today must abide by very stringent environmental rules.

These rules have been estab-lished over years of concerns raised by people, such as the con-cerns the people of Nemiah cur-rently raise. That is the process of making such industries envi-

ronmentally responsible regard-less of nearby communities, as we can see in 40 years of mining near McLeese Lake.

Where individuals have fac-tual, proven information that some process is bound to fail, it is contingent upon each of us to bring that information forward, however, to keep harping on what might, or might not happen, is not factual or earth shattering reasoning, to condemn a project.

Mr. E. Johnson raised at Wells B.C., tells of growing up in Wells in the 1930s and 40s where 12-inch diameter outflows from each of the two mines, one on each side of the road, located at Wells allowed contaminated water to flow from their Ball Mills into the Deck-of-Clubs Lake whose outfall flows into the Fraser Riv-er.

This certainly and definitely was polluted water of which con-taminates included arsenic. It is

demands for changes by protest-ing people that has changed the dynamics of how a modern in-dustry can operate. Where people do have factual irrefutable envi-ronmental information, let them stand and be counted.

Mr. Johnson also tells that there were about 300 students in Wells in that period, what was interesting to him is that, they as children played on the mine waste piles of the period.

About 10 years ago these same students had a reunion, and he argues not one person attending that reunion was in a wheelchair, used canes or crutches, or even walkers.

We would not want our children playing in a similar environment, nor will we allow, or accept in-dustry to pollute accidentally or otherwise in such manner today.

As so many of us are unaware of the fact that February is a month ded-icated to National Eating Disorder Awareness, I have decided to take the last week of February and create some aware-ness around this serious issue in Williams Lake.

It is an illness that af-fects more people than you would think.

It’s not a disease that

only affects young wom-en as most commonly thought.

Eating disorders are very common in boys, to men, to girls, to women of all ages and races.

An eating disorder can begin at any time in a persons life.

There is no one reason why an eating disorder begins.

Have you ever looked in a mirror and not liked what you’ve seen?

You are not alone.Maybe your body has

not changed, but your perception has.

I believe that media lit-eracy plays a big part in how we as a society view ourselves, our bodies and what we should strive to look like.

When our measures of beauty are these pin thin supermodels and men with chiseled abs and massive bi-ceps we will go to dangerous lengths

to achieve these media generated images.

These lengths can in-clude binge eating, bu-limia nervosa, anorexia nervosa and many other sub type eating disorders.

This can also include excessive amounts of exercise which is a sub-type eating disorder re-ferred to as bulimia ex-ercise.

There are many types of eating disorders and they are all equally dan-gerous.

Eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of any mental illness.

Only one in 10 people with an eating disorder will receive treatment.

The average treatment for an eating disorder can range from $500 to $2,000 per day. Three to six months is the average time for inpatient care.

The cost of outpatient treatment is also very high.

This can be as costly as $100,000 per year, including medical moni-toring and therapy.

On top of being a very costly illness to treat, eat-ing disorders are a very shame-based illness/ad-diction that are just not talked about.

Because it is becoming more and more common in our society the need for help and resources is in a greater demand.

If this article has struck any interest for you please feel free to come and listen to a panel dis-cussion at the Womens Contact Society in the

boardroom on Thursday Feb. 28 from 4 to 6 p.m.

The topic will be based around media literacy and the impact it has on society and how it leads to eating disorders.

This event is open to anyone and free of charge.

If you have any ques-tions please feel free to contact Robyn at the Womens Contact Society 250-392-4118.

Cougars claw to regional titleThe Columneetza Cougars ju-

nior girls basketball team are headed off to the North Central Zone Basketball Championships.

The Cougars, in three dominat-ing performances last weekend, punched their ticket to zones, which go Feb. 21-23 at Duchess Park secondary in Prince George, after hosting the regional cham-pionships Friday and Saturday at Columneetza secondary.

The Cougars opened Friday with a 61-24 win over the Wil-liams Lake Thunder. Game star went to Ashley Straza for the Cou-gars, while Laura Pfleiderer was awarded the honour for WLSS. Straza added a career-high 20 points in the contest while Kaylee Billyboy and Naomi Lomavatu each chipped in 10.

WLSS high scorer was Anna Bracewell with eight points, while Pfleiderer dropped seven.

In their second game the Cou-gars continued to dominate, beat-ing Quesnel’s Correlieu Clan 59-51. Lomavatu was named game star, while Straza led all scorers with 14.

Kaylee Billyboy, Naomi Loma-vatu and Ariel Zacharius all scored 10 in the win.

The Thunder, in their second game, marched away with a 44-32 win over Correlieu, to finish

second. Pfleiderer, again, was the high scorer, dropping 27 points on the afternoon.

Cougars coach Brigette Peel said the win and the chance to compete at a zone championship means a lot to the girls.

“Due to the school reconfigura-tion for next year this is our team’s last opportunity to play with each other as Columneetza Cougars and the girls have taken on great pride

in doing so,” Peel said. “I suppose they want their last

hoorah to be a grand one and a trip to the provincials would be just that.”

She added the team has con-tinued to gain confidence in their abilities, and shown significant in-dividual improvement.

“Duchess Park will be the team to beat as they are currently ranked No. 3 in the province and favoured

to win this tournament,” she said. “We have not had the opportuni-

ty to play them but the north zone will send two berths to provincials. With five teams who have won and lost to one another throughout the season one of the two berths is certainly within our sights.

“I think we will all head to zones with a little fire in our bel-lies to make sure the Columneetza Cougars are remembered.”

Columneetza finished first, beating out Williams Lake secondary and Correlieu to earn a berth at this weekend’s zones.

ond) and Patricia Scott (lead). They beat Leona McKay’s rink in the final.

And on the ‘C’ side, Linda Pe-terson’s rink of Marg Gammie (third), Gwen Gage (second) and

Helen Bailey (lead) defeated Dar-lene Belziuk’s rink to take the title.

On the men’s side John Sheph-ard’s rink of Rod Anderson (third), Tim Fisch (second) and Gerry Leclerc (lead) beat Roger Solly’s rink to take the ‘A’ division crown.

The ‘B’ event winners were Brian Purdy (skip), Bill Garratt (third), Michelle Ball (second) and John Kielman (lead), who beat Laura Ball’s rink.

And in the ‘C’ final, Moe Mon-ita (skip), Jerry Mooney (third), Jason Vath (second) and Miles Macinnon (lead) took out Ryan Bailey’s rink.

The bonspiel also featured a so-cial Saturday evening at the Wil-liams Lake Curling Club.

Greg Sabatino photoThe Third Annual Valentine’s Co-ed Futsal Tournament is in the books, where Carrie’s Team (pictured) marched away with first place and a $400 prize. The tournament is a fundraiser for the Williams Lake Men’s and Ladies’ Soccer Leagues.

Valentine’s tourney a successAn early second-half

goal proved to be the difference maker Sat-urday afternoon in the final of the Third An-nual Valentine’s Co-ed Futsal Tournament.

Lindsay Thiessen scored near the midway mark of the second half to lead Carrie’s Team to a 1-0 final win over Drunk and Looking to Score.

For their efforts, Carrie’s Team were awarded $400. The runner-ups also earned

a cool $200 on the weekend. The tourna-ment was co-hosted by the Williams Lake Men’s and Ladies’ Soc-cer Leagues.

Rules of the tourna-ment required two men and two women be on the floor at all times, along with a goalten-der. The catch — men weren’t allowed to shoot or score during the tournament, which caused some creative play throughout the weekend.

The tournament is a fundraiser for Williams Lake soccer, who will put the funds toward the construction of a new playground at the Esler Sports Complex soccer fields. As has been customary dur-ing the tournament’s two previous stints, both teams in the final donated their winnings back to Williams Lake soccer.

The battle for third place saw Ashlee Tu-ratus lead Bayern Nev-

erluse score two goals to lead her team over Moosemeat, 2-1. Tanya Iachetta scored the lone goal for Moosemeat.

Semifinal play saw Carrie’s team get past Bayern Neverluse, 3-0, while Drunk and Look-ing to Score edged Moosemeat, 1-0.

Following the final match a fundraising auction and social was held at the Oliver Street Bar and Grill, featuring several items donated by local businesses.

The Williams Lake Secondary School Thun-der senior girls basket-ball team hopes three years of building and honing their skills as a team will pay off this weekend when they host the North Central Zone Basketball Champion-ships.

WLSS will be joined by College Heights, DP Todd, Kelly Road,

Duchess Park and Nechako Valley for the tournament, which be-gins Thursday and wraps up Saturday evening at the WLSS gym.

Coaches Tara Bur-tenshaw and Raj Lalli, who’ve helped aid the chemistry between the players since their grade-eight seasons, will lead the Thunder into zones.

This year WLSS has

set their goals even high-er.

Role players Montana Reid, Latasha Diaz and Ana Lomavatu will be looked to for leadership this weekend.

The Thunder open their tournament Thurs-day at 3 p.m. versus College Heights. Games Friday and Saturday de-pend on the outcomes of Thursday’s matchups.

Trade fair and fashion show a treat for brides to beThere was a full house of more

than 250 people attending the fourth annual Bridal Fair and Expo hosted by Event Essentials at the Elks Hall on Sunday.

The event included lots of ven-dors with ideas for brides and their weddings, plus entertainment, a fashion show and a hot lunch.

The brides got a great start on their wedding planning and ev-eryone else took advantage of the beautiful day and enjoyed them-selves, says event organizer Tovi Pare.

Vendors included photographers, formal and casual wear suppliers, party planners, hair and makeup demonstrations, cake decorating demonstrations and more.

Models for the show were Shari Miller, Allison Getz, Abby King, Fawn Povelofskie all modelling for Class Act Formals of 100 Mile House.

Mary Forbes modelled for Le Cheap, C’est Chic Clothing Com-pany and Dandelion Living.

Alexia Colton, Kaylla Wilde, Marissa Lalonde, Tyra McMillan-Wilde, and Roxanne Mallette mod-elling for BFF Fashions.

Strapless gowns for brides and bridesmaids continue to be hot trends along with the essential little black dress or simple dresses in bright colours such as blue, teal, hot pink – and short, short.

Greg Sabatino photosFrom ruffles to lace and a 1950s influence and the essential little black dress there were lots of choices for brides to be and their bridesmaids shown on the runway. Modelling top left are bride Shari Miller and bridesmaid Allison Getz in hot pink. At right Fawn Povelofskie wears a fanciful gown in soft pink with gold accents suitable for the bride, bridesmaid or guest.

Modelling (left to right) are Allison Getz in traditional satin and lace, Alexia Colton in a stunning little black dress, and Abby King in a delightfully updated 1950’s style wedding dress.

Scrapbooking events raise funds for Chiwid

Women are usually the members of the fam-ily interested in keeping family records, research-ing family history, and with all that, keeping all the family photos in or-der.

With the family and women in particular in mind, Sigi Ludwig-Dieck and her husband Dave Ludwig will be holding their sixth Crop for Chiwid Transition House this weekend at the Longhouse.

Chiwid is the transi-tion house for abused women run by the Cari-boo Friendship Society and holds a special place in Sigi’s heart since she had been abused in her first marriage.

“I am very passionate about helping women and children to get out of the cycle of abuse,” Sigi says. “It took me 23 years to get out of my cycle of abuse.”

In 2010 Sigi started holding scrapbooking (or crop) events for Chiwid House in her basement with a group of just seven women. She has held five Crops for Chiwid since them, each one growing in success.

“In two years we have gone from seven women in my basement to 30 women at the Long-house,” Sigi says. “I nev-er expected to do that. It is wonderful.”

All proceeds from the $55 participation fee (including meals for the weekend), raffles, silent auction and sale of hand crafted embellishments go directly to the Chiwid House.

Between February 2010 and October 2012 she says the scrapbook-

ing events have raised $7,790.99 for Chiwid Transition House. The last Halloween Crop raised $1,636.70 and she is hoping to raise at least that amount with this weekend’s event.

“This is my passion,” Sigi says. “We always have a theme for a dona-tion drive as well.”

Last June the partici-pants donated toys for toddlers and teens and at the Halloween crop par-ticipants filled two utility vehicles with supplies for the bedroom from pillow cases to sheets, to com-forters and afghans.

This weekend be-ing February and close to Valentine’s Day the theme is Heart 2 Heart and the donation theme is pots and pans, new or gently used.

Sigi says women in crisis often come to Chi-wid House with noth-ing and these donations help the women to set up households on their own when they are ready to leave Chiwid House.

Like her other scrap-

booking weekends the fun starts this Saturday morning at 9 a.m. and goes right through until 4 p.m. Sunday afternoon.

The fee includes five hot meals cooked up by Sigi and Dave – break-fast, lunch and dinner on Saturday, and a Sunday -- breakfast with Dave’s famous french toast and lunch of soup and salad. The couple try to mix up the main meals and offer two choices such as salmon and turkey, or beef and lamb. This Saturday the main meal will be ham roast and chicken.

“My husband and I pay for the food but we also try to get as much food donated as pos-sible,” Sigi says. “Every donation bag of chips or roast of beef, or turkey helps.”

For the last five crops she says the Water Fac-tory has donated bottled water for the event and will be there again this weekend with their wa-ter.

Up to eight vendors

usually have their scrap-booking and other sup-plies available for sale. They don’t pay for their tables but each vendor

donates two items that will be raffled to raise funds for Chiwid House.

Each guest can also participate in two daily “make and take” work-shops during the week-end provided by scrap booking suppliers. For instance participants will learn new techniques for making greeting cards or a photo layout which they take home with them.

Sigi says she also tries to have something spe-cial for participants at each event.

Florence Bettschen will be there from Day Spa Champagne provid-ing chair massages for a reduced fee.

At recent events they have had a photographer there to take pictures and a beauty consultant.

This weekend there will be a raffle for a trip

for five to the Great Ca-nadian Craft Spring Fling of Canadian Crafters at the Vancouver Con-vention Centre, Canada Place. It includes five tickets for the fair and two hotel rooms near the centre.

For her, Sigi says scrapbooking provides time for healing and re-flection.

“Spending time with old and new photographs provides me with per-sonal healing time,” Sigi says. Now 56 she says she couldn’t be happier with Dave and her blend-ed family which includes four children and seven grandchildren.

She says Dave is also familiar with abuse and supports her efforts to raise awareness about the problem of abuse and funds for Chiwid Transi-

tion House.She says abuse wasn’t

an issue that women of her generation talked about but talking about it now is the only way to help men and women recognize the signs and symptoms of abuse and address the problem head on.

She explains the cycle of abuse simply as the honeymoon, tension, then explosion, triangle “that’s as simple as it gets.”

Sigi says she and Dave have worked together to build their relationship and new life together.

“We set up a business out of the ashes of the old one,” Sigi says.

They operate Hillside Fire Protection, sprinkler system installations and Dave also does specialty welding.

Sigi Ludwig-Dieck dressed for the Halloween Crop and hosts another crop this weekend.

Women enjoy getting together at scrapbooking sessions to sort out photographs and put them together in creative albums and raise funds for Chiwid house at the same time.

Elyse Seinen, a kin-dergarten student at Ma-ranatha Christian School, participated in her first school science fair last week.

Her display was called ‘Walking on Egg-shells’ and teacher Mike Warkentin provided ‘feets-on’ proof that egg-shells may be harder than you think, depending on their angle.

But alas, students took great delight in seeing that he broke every egg while trying to walk on the raw eggs in their cartons.

Such was the excite-ment at the school last week for the annual science fair held at the school with students from Cariboo Adventist Acad-emy also participating.

A total of 45 students from the school were chosen to move on to the district science fair in 100 Mile House, compared to the 14 who achieved that level last year, say school officials.

The overall top marks are as follows:

Primary Grades K-31. Lucas Daugherty:

Fast Food Nightmares.2. Braydon Baker: The

Big Attraction.3. Kale Seinen: Dra-

matic Density.Novice Grades 4-5

1. Dylen Alexandre: Zoetrope, 88.3.

A group of people have come together to tell a unique story in the Cariboo: the history of Cana-da told through fiddle music.

Arranged by composer, musi-cian and teacher Gordon Stobbe, the project is currently in re-hearsal in Williams Lake.

Approximately 40 local young fiddlers, guitar and mandolin players and a piano player, are working to get the two-and-a-half hour concert ready for the stage, directed by violin/fiddler teacher Ingrid Johnston.

The Williams Lake commu-nity was first introduced to ‘The Fiddle History of Canada’ when a fiddle group from Smithers performed it last summer at St. Andrew’s United Church.

Ingrid explained that Gordon Stobbe was well-known to the families of local kids who attend-ed the Gavin Lake Fiddle Camp.

“This arrangement is so well done, and he is so charismatic and laid-back: people thought it would be a great fit to do it here,” she said.

Workshops with the Youth Fiddlers and Gordon Stobbe were soon organized, where the kids started learning the songs, instructed by Stobbe, Johnston and professional fiddler and in-structor J.J. Guy.

Ingrid says parental support is huge for the Youth Fiddlers.

“It’s a real time commitment — driving kids to rehearsals, workshops and performances is a big part of it,” Johnston says. “We have kids from Horsefly, Big Lake and Alexis Creek.

“The parents have worked so hard on this project, and the great thing is that they each use their talents and skills to contribute what they’re really good at.”

Members of the Cariboo Chilcotin Youth Fiddlers Soci-ety have performed songs from Fiddle History at venues and events around Williams Lake

this past year, including the Me-dieval Market, the recent com-munity fundraiser for TubaJohn and Debbie Sykes and Family Fest 2013 held at Marie Sharpe Elementary School last Sunday.

Ingrid has been in regular rehearsals with the fiddlers since the last workshop, Sep-tember 2012, getting ready for the next one, which begins on Feb. 27.

This workshop marks the half-way mark, where the young musicians will begin learning the second half of Fiddle History.

“When I first saw this per-formance live by the Smithers fiddle group it resonated with me,” Johnston said. “Smithers is a small town, too and they showed so much talent. I really enjoyed how well put together it was — the acting, costumes and the drama. It was so entertaining and beautiful and the timing was good for us. We needed a goal for the local group.”

Parents say that there have been many generous sponsors who have supported the Youth Fiddlers and made this project possible, including local indi-viduals, businesses and indus-try.

Ingrid has approximately 48 students, and 90 per cent of the Youth Fiddlers take lessons from her. She teaches both violin and fiddle in a real mix of styles.

Her own musical experience began when she was introduced to piano when she was four years old.

“My mom would hold me on her lap, and we would find notes and play around on the piano,” she said, adding that she started violin when she was six.

“Growing up in a ranching community between Vernon and Kamloops, I played a mix of styles, like ragtime, big band, classical and even a couple of musicals.”

When she married Cariboo resident Ty Johnston, she moved to the Williams Lake area.

“I started teaching piano when I was a teen, and when I moved here I started teaching violin in the evenings, working around a full time job,” she continued. “I’ve been teaching here now for about 12 years.”

She said that one thing she’s looking forward to is the com-munity concert on March 2 that will follow the Fiddle History workshop.

“People are blown away at the quality of these concerts, and at the kids’ abilities,” she noted. “It’s a small-community whole-some, Saturday night dance that brings back wonderful memories for people.

“The kids work very hard throughout the year, and having a great audience that appreciates what they’ve all put into it is very positive for them.”

One of the young fiddlers is 12-year-old Mackenzie Mag-nowski, one of Johnston’s stu-dents. She said that she started violin when she was five years old, and fiddle when she was nine.

“I love fiddle because it’s all about playing with other people and isn’t focused on just one per-son,” she said. “All the songs in Fiddle History make me happy. I’m really looking forward to the workshop to just being able to learn more of these cool songs with such great instructors and such good friends.

“Ingrid is wonderful,” Mack-enzie added. “She is all you could hope for.”

The workshop takes place at Thompson Rivers University North from Wednesday, Feb. 27 to Saturday, March 2. On the the Saturday evening the fiddle group will perform for the TRU Splash of Colour scholarship fundraising gala, then welcome the community to an open fiddle concert and dance at the Long-house.

The Longhouse doors open at 7 p.m. and concert is at 7:15 p.m. with admission by donation.

WRIGHTStanley Burton

The family of Stanley B. Wright of Lac la Hache, B.C. regret to announce his passing on February 6, 2013 in 100 Mile House, B.C.

Stan was born on November 29, 1920, the fi rst of eight children born

to Mary Melissa and Richard Thomas Burton Wright. A rancher, husband and stepfather, Stan was a pioneer and a community leader throughout his years in the Cariboo. Most of his time was spent working on his ranch at “Wright’s corner” in Lac la Hache. In his free time he was well-known for service to his community having spent many years as a member of the Lac la Hache Community Club, many of which he served as club president. Stan was also a long-time volunteer of other organizations including the Cariboo Regional District and the B.C. Cattleman’s Association. In his retirement he was instrumental in organizing the Lac la Hache Historical Society. Stan’s bingo calls of “O-clickety-click 66” and “top of the house, O-75” were a familiar refrain for bingo players all throughout the Cariboo for many years.

The family would like to thank the staff at Mill Site Lodge for taking such thoughtful care of Stan in recent years. They would also like to thank his long-time physician Dr. Rod Dickey and the emergency room staff at the 100 Mile Hospital for their kindness.

A “Celebration of Life” for Stanley will be held at the Lac la Hache Community Hall on February 23rd beginning at 2:00 p.m.
