Assault charge recommended against constable
The Abbotsford Police Depart-ment has concluded its investiga-tion of an incident involving the arrest of a 17-year-old girl in Wil-liams Lake Sept. 10, 2011.
According to a news release from the Abbotsford Police Department sent out Wednesday morning, that girl sustained injuries while in the custody of the Williams Lake RCMP.
After a thorough examination of the totality of the circumstances, the Abbotsford Police are recom-mending a charge of assault against a Williams Lake RCMP officer.
No charges are being recom-mended against the teenager.
In September, Martina Jeff sent a letter of complaint to the Commis-sion for Public Complaints Against the RCMP, accusing RCMP Const. Andy Yung of assaulting her daughter Jamie Haller.
Shortly after, Jamie told the Tri-
bune she was punched in the face several times by an RCMP officer while she was handcuffed in the back of a police car.
Jeff, in her letter, said she watched the officer “put his whole upper body in the car” and punch Jamie.
“I was close enough to see the movement of his arms, as he was striking her,” the letter says.
On receiving phone calls from both the Abbotsford and Williams Lake RCMP detachment Wednes-day morning about the recom-mended charge of assault, Jeff says she was speechless.
“It took my breath away,” Jeff said, adding she hadn’t been able to reach Jamie to let her know be-cause she was out snowmobiling.
Since the incident Jamie has quit attending school, quit her job, and has been a lot quieter than normal, her mom said.
“It really fouled up her sched-ule, but I’m hoping when she gets the news about the charges, it will help,” Jeff said, adding every
time they discuss the incident her daughter gets teary.
During a press conference held at city hall Wednesday, Supt. Rod Booth, acting commander for the North District BC RCMP, said it would be inappropriate to provide detailed comments while Crown counsel conducts its review of the report.
Booth, however, said it was nec-essary, given the seriousness of the allegations, to advise the public on the action the RCMP has taken.
“On Sept. 10, 2011 at approxi-mately 10:15 at night, members of the Williams Lake RCMP respond-ed to several 911 calls reporting a possible assault in progress involv-ing a highly emotional, distraught female. All on-duty members responded to this call, which re-sulted in the arrest of 17-year-old female,” Booth said.
Following the incident concerns were raised about her treatment by a Williams Lake detachment con-stable, he said.
“A public complaints investiga-
tion was initially initiated by the commander of the Williams Lake detachment, Insp. Warren Brown. However, the decision was made to request an independent external in-vestigation to be conducted by the Abbotsford Police Department,” Booth said.
He said the RCMP then invited an impartial First Nations observer who was chosen following consul-tation with the teen’s family. The observer’s job was to monitor the independent Abbotsford Police Department investigation.
Jeff says the observer was a chief from Canoe Creek who she asked to help out.
Booth says that as a result of a communication misunderstanding concerning roles and responsibili-ties of the independent investiga-tion, the Williams Lake detachment submitted a report to Crown coun-sel, which resulted in charges be-ing approved and then laid against the 17-year old.

“The misunderstand-ing centred around the belief that the Abbotsford Police Department were only investigating the al-legations against the po-lice officer, when in fact, the RCMP had asked that they investigate the total-ity of the circumstances,” Booth explained, adding when he realized this he immediately worked with Crown counsel to facilitate a stay of pro-ceedings regarding the charges against the girl.
All investigative ma-terial was made avail-able to the Abbotsford Police investigators and a separate investigation is underway to establish how this occurred, Booth added.
Booth said Brown has personally spoken with the girl’s family, but out of respect, those details will not be disclosed.
Jeff, however, told the Tribune she was really satisfied with Brown’s call.
“It made my day a little bit brighter,” she said.
While the constable cannot be named because the charges have not been approved by Crown counsel, Booth did say the RCMP has also or-dered an internal code-
of-conduct investiga-tion, which will include a thorough report of the report submitted by the Abbotsford RCMP on March 7.
Once the RCMP re-ceived the report, the con-stable was immediately removed from operations and placed on non-oper-ational duties, remaining at the Williams Lake de-tachment.
At the press confer-ence, Brown said he was disappointed to learn of the recommended charge of assault against one of his constables.
“I hold the members and employees at my de-tachment to a high level of accountability and demand a high standard of moral and ethical be-haviour. I’m responsible for the actions of the Williams Lake RCMP members,” Brown said, adding he assumed re-sponsibility for the initial confusion regarding the recommendation of the charge against the girl.
The case illustrates the benefits of the indepen-dent investigations office and an investigative body being created, which the RCMP has long support-ed, Brown said.
“As the commander it is my responsibility to ensure clarity of all roles and responsibilities in all
criminal investigations in Williams Lake. It is im-portant to me to maintain the trust and confidence of the communities we serve and for those rea-sons I support the inves-tigative process that has been undertaken,” Brown said.
In a news release, the Abbotsford Police De-partment said the case was extremely challeng-ing to investigate.
“The pivotal contact between the police offi-cer and the girl took place in the confines of the rear seat of a patrol car,” the release says. “That the rear seat and the area around the vehicle were in darkness. The accounts offered by the officer and the girl differed. How-ever, after reviewing all of the available evidence, the Abbotsford Police Department has forward-ed the report to Regional Crown Counsel in Prince George for charge ap-proval consideration.”
Jeff’s younger daugh-ter, 12, witnessed the incident on Sept. 10 and according to Jeff is also taking it day by day.
“She always tells me, Mom, what do I do if I need the cops, and I al-ways tell her if you do need the cops, not all of them are the bad ones,” Jeff said.

Monica Lamb-Yorski photoParents and children support striking teachers in Williams Lake Wednesday.
Parents show their support
In some cases teach-ers are spending more time with children than parents and it’s important to realize the role teach-ers play, says parent Na-dine Conkin of 150 Mile House.
The kindergarten mom was speaking Wednesday morning while attending
a demonstration she had organized in support of teachers, where she and other parents had made f lorescent-coloured signs and joined strik-ing teachers outside of Marie Sharpe Elemen-tary School in Williams Lake.
“I feel the government is dictating to our teach-ers that they have to go back to work. There’s
no increase in wages and there’s no teacher sup-port when it comes to students that need special assistance in the class-room,” Conkin says.
Conkin wants the gov-ernment to support chil-dren because they are the future and questions why daycare support from the government is higher at $35 a day per child than it is for a child in school.
It’s not about wages, but it is about the whole package, she adds.
“I’ve watched children needing extra support in the classroom and not getting it. It’s the other kids that are suffering be-cause the teacher’s hands are tied if they have no supports.”

city to initiate comprehensive review ofchlorine incident
The Sam Ketcham Pool remains closed and its gas chlorine system deactivated in response to preliminary investigation recommendations.
The results of a pre-liminary investigation into the cause of the Feb. 26 chlorine incident at Sam Ketcham Pool that were released March 2 identified the cause to be a malfunctioning vacuum regulator in the pool’s gas chlorine sanitizing sys-tem.
The preliminary inves-tigation was undertaken by a joint Union/Manage-ment investigation team due to the occupational health and safety aspects of the incident with the primary purpose of iden-tifying the cause and en-suring necessary steps were taken to prevent a similar occurrence.
The faulty vacuum reg-ulator has been secured and will be examined by an independent mechani-cal engineer to verify the cause of the malfunction.
Due to the large num-ber of public who were directly affected, further investigation of the event by an independent body will take place which will examine contributory causes, evacuation pro-cedures and emergency response.
“The City recognizes the emotional impact this event has had on those who were in attendance including the swimmers, parents and staff,” says Mayor Kerry Cook. “Ar-rangements are being made for counselling ser-vices for not only the local swimmers and parents,
but those from other com-munities who were taking part in the swim meet. Counselling services have also been made available to staff who were directly or indirectly involved in the incident.”
Cook says she is per-sonally talking to indi-viduals involved, check-ing up on their health, and listening to accounts of what happened.
“This has definitely been a learning experi-ence,” she says.
A mechanical engi-neering firm has been retained by the city and it began its assessment of the pool’s sanitizing sys-tem Monday.
The firm will provide recommendations for both short-term and long-term options for sanitizing the pool water, which do not involve gas chlorine.
Although the City can-not confirm at this time when the pools may re-open, initial reports from the mechanical engineer-ing firm are encouraging, the city says. A number of steps will be required including approval of the proposed system by In-terior Health and budget approval by the Cariboo Regional District before a new system can be com-missioned. The city says every effort will be made to have a new system op-erational as soon as pos-sible so that the public can enjoy the pool facility with confidence.
The fitness centre and all fitness classes, except aqua-fit continue in spite of the pool closure. For more information please contact 250-398-POOL.
RCMP investigate cheque forgeryIntoxication and as-
saults kept the RCMP busy during the first few days of the month.
March 1:• A local hotel em-
ployee called the RCMP stating a male and female were arguing in their room. Police attended and determined the argu-ing was only verbal and no physical assault had taken place.
• Social services re-ported that a male had become belligerent with staff after he was refused his cheque. When they ar-rived, officers discovered the male was intoxicated, arrested him for uttering
threats and lodged him in cells until he was sober.
• A local bank reported a customer had depos-ited a forged cheque for $25,000 and proceeded to withdraw $21,000 and $4,000 over the next two days before the cheque was cleared. The matter is under investigation.
March 2:• A driver suffered mi-
nor injuries after his truck went off road left down a steep embarkment on Soda Creek Road about 12.5 kilometres from Mackenzie Avenue. Nine curfew checks were con-ducted revealing all indi-viduals found to be com-
pliant.• A male arrested on
outstanding warrants originating from New Hazelton was brought be-fore a justice of the peace
• Officers attended a report that a female and male were arguing at a party located on First Avenue North and de-termined it was verbal. There was no physical assault.
The male and female were separated for the evening.
• No issues surfaced during three checks con-ducted at local drinking establishments.
• Everyone was found
to be compliant during 13 curfew checks.
March 3:• Officers located a
male driving while pro-hibited. He was released at roadside on a promise to appear in court.
• Officers arrested a male found smoking marijuana outside a local group home.
• A man, who was try-ing to start a fight at a local drinking establish-ment, was arrested when he became combative with officers who at-tended the scene. He was later released to appear in court on three assault charges.
March 4:• Charges have been
recommended for a male who was in breach of his court condition for being out past curfew.
• An intoxicated male assaulted another male, but the victim did not want to pursue charges. However, investigation by police revealed the suspect was in breach of his court conditions to reside in Prince George. The suspect was detained in custody to appear in court.
• When eight curfews were conducted, one per-son was found to be non-compliant.
Pointing to her own children and the oth-ers standing around her at the demonstration, Conkin suggests they could be future politi-cians, future doctors, and future nurses.
“If they don’t get the education they need then where are we?” she asks.
Conkin has a sister and brother-in-law who are teachers and says she doesn’t live near them and cannot support them in person, but hopes that her actions send a signal that she supports teach-ers everywhere.
“The more people that
are aware of what’s going on the better. They think it’s about the teachers wanting an increase in wages. This isn’t about wages; it’s about support for our children in the classroom. They aren’t getting that.”
During the demonstra-tion, Cariboo Chilcotin Teachers Association president Joan Erb and B.C. Teachers Federation staff person John Ehinger greeted the teachers, par-ents and children, hand-ing out chocolate bars.
The group was also joined by John Nasuszny and Bob Macnair of the United Steelworkers who showed up carrying union flags in support of the teachers.
Former mayor Rick Gibson was back at city hall Tuesday, but this time around he was mak-ing a surprise donation.
His company Axis Family Resources is giv-ing $10,000 toward the Rick Hansen Monument that will be installed at the Tourism Discovery Centre and unveiled March 26, the day after the Rick Hansen 25th Anniversary Relay.
Gibson says he’s very proud of Hansen.
“I went to school with him. It’s the 25th anni-
versary for his Man in Motion Tour and I really want to thank the city of Williams Lake for doing something to recognize him,” Gibson says, add-ing he’d like to encour-age anyone else who can to donate as well. The donation comes on the heels of the 20th anniver-sary of Axis Family Re-sources. Gibson says the company wants to give back to the community.
It has also developed a $20,000 bursary fund where $500 to $1,000 in bursaries will be given to kids who have been in care who want to further their education.
“If you know any for-mer kids in care that are looking to go back to school, whether it’s uni-versity, college courses, or upgrading courses they’d like to take and could use a little financial
help, they are able to ap-ply to us at our website, www.axisfamilyresourc-es.ca, and we’ll be happy to help them out.”
Coun. Surinderpal Rathor, who has been on the planning commit-
tee for the monument, says Gibson’s donation brings the donation total to $54,000.
“I’m confident we’ll meet the $60,000 goal by the end of the week,” Rathor says.

Resiliency centre serves fire victimsPeople affected by the
Williams Inn fire are be-ing served by a Resilience Centre run by the City of Williams Lake with sup-port from the Canadian Red Cross.
“The centre will serve
as a central resource in the community for people affected by the devastat-ing fire on Feb. 24, which resulted in over 40 people losing their homes and belongings,” says the Ca-nadian Red Cross.
Red Cross case work-ers are completing ini-tial assessments for each family to determine assis-tance at the centre, which is located at the Salvation Army soup kitchen at 272 Borland St, but individu-
als need to phone ahead to make an appointment at 250-305-7284.
“There is a great ca-pacity and resilience in the community,” says Becky Row, operations manager for the Red
Cross in Northern B.C./Yukon. “We work with the community to support the recovery efforts. A number of agencies and community groups have come forward to offer as-sistance and we will join hands to provide the nec-essary support to people impacted by the fire.”
Financial contributions are still needed and are the easiest way to help ease unmet needs, such
as housing and food. The Red Cross says it is un-able to accept donations of goods such as furniture or clothing.
Canadian Red Cross says its work is being made possible with gen-erous support of the Sal-vation Army in Williams Lake, Williams Lake Search and Rescue, pro-vincial authorities, com-munity agencies and the City of Williams Lake.
Donations can be made by cheque or money order to The Canadian Red Cross by also iden-tifying that it is for B.C. Response Fund — Wil-liams Lake Fire at the Resiliency Centre or the Health Equipment Loan Program (HELP) Depot in Williams Lake at 517 Sixth Ave. N. Credit card donations are also being accepted at 1-800-565-8000.
Open fire prohibition begins April 2Effective Monday,
April 2 at noon, the size of open fires will be re-stricted within the Cari-boo Fire Centre to help prevent human-caused wildfires and protect the public.
Anyone conducting Category 2 or 3 fires must have all such fires extinguished by noon that day.
The prohibition will remain in effect until Sept. 30 or until further notice.
Specifically, this will prohibit:
• The burning of any waste, slash or other materials (piled or un-piled) at a size larger than one metre by one
metre.• The burning of more
than two open fires of any size at the same time.
• Stubble or grass fires of any size over any area.
This prohibition covers all B.C. parks, Crown lands and private lands, but it does not apply within the bound-aries of a local govern-ment that has forest fire prevention bylaws in place and is serviced by a fire department. Be-fore lighting any fire, residents should check with local civic authori-ties regarding any cur-rent prohibitions.
Anyone planning to
conduct burning should ensure fires are not lit near buildings, trees or other combustible ma-terials.
Never burn during windy conditions and ensure you have ad-equate people, water and hand tools available to prevent fires from es-caping.
Never leave a fire un-attended.
The Cariboo Fire Centre covers an area of about 10.3 million hect-ares, stretching as far south as Loon Lake to just north of Quesnel at the Cottonwood River.
From east to west, the boundaries stretch from the western edge of Wells
Gray Provincial Park to the eastern boundary of Tweedsmuir Provincial Park.
For information about open burning and for more tips on making re-sponsible burning deci-sions, download one of the guides to open burn-ing at http://bcwildfire.ca/hprScripts/Wildfire-News/Bans.asp.

Welcome news
A modest proposal
I saw a lot of positives involving our young people in the last week, and that is part of what
keeps me optimistic about our future. O n
F r i d a y, I wel-c o m e d Dr. Mar-tin Bro-k e n l eg ,
who gave a workshop on mobiliz-ing our community to take back our youth. His approach and philosophy is used in School District 27, and it was very encouraging that 200 peo-ple felt this was important to attend. On the weekend, I attended a rap/gos-pel presentation, the Love Fix, about connecting with youth and the impor-tance of making healthy choices. At the Tuesday council meeting, I was excited to meet this year’s Stampede Queen contestants: Alexis Forseille, Christina Walsh, Michelle Ball, and Terris Billyboy. Lots of great things happening with our youth these days.
I want to publicly thank all those who assisted those displaced by the Williams Inn fire on Feb. 24: Overlander Hotel, Sandman Hotel, Denny’s restaurant, Valleyview Mo-tel, Williams Inn, Walmart, Cariboo Chilcotin Search and Rescue, Red Cross, Salvation Army, Ministry of Social Development, Williams Lake Fire Department, Williams Lake Emergency Support Services, Cana-dian Mental Health Association out-reach workers, BC Housing, and the many volunteers. Your generosity is greatly appreciated and has made a real difference. Household items are still needed and can be dropped off at the Salvation Army. Evacuees have all found accommodation, which is welcome news. A big thank you to former mayor Rick Gibson, who came to council Tuesday night to present a $10,000 cheque for the new Rick Hansen monument that will go up at the Tourism Discovery Centre.
As announced this week, a com-prehensive review of the chlorine incident will take place, examining causes, evacuation procedures and emergency response. We are also tak-ing steps to re-open the pool as soon as safely possible. I have been talking to those affected, listening to their stories, and I will continue to make that personal contact going forward.
Kerry Cook is the mayor of Wil-liams Lake.
Both the provincial govern-ment and the B.C. Teach-ers’ Federation are respon-
sible for the dysfunctional state of collective bargaining in the K-12 sys-tem. This isn’t my assessment alone. It’s also the assessment of Commis-sioner Don Wright, who investigated this issue in 2004, and of mediator Vince Ready in 2007.
T h e dysfunc-tional re-lationship between the B.C. govern-
ment (including when the NDP were in power) and the BCTF has led to all but one collective agreement being legislated since 1994.
That single “successful” five-year collective agreement in 2006 occurred after an illegal strike by the teachers, a court fine against the BCTF for con-tempt, and the appointment of Ready as a facilitator.
But a number of long-standing is-sues still remained unresolved, es-pecially the issues of class size and composition and the BCTF’s desire to return to district bargaining rather than the provincial bargaining struc-ture the NDP imposed on them in 1994. The problem with the current structure is that if the government doesn’t like what the BCTF is pro-posing or it wants to reduce educa-tion spending it can simply push the BCTF up against the wall, force the teachers to strike and then use this as an excuse to legislate a new collective agreement in the name of “protecting B.C.’s school children.”
We need a different system and I proposed this week that Don Wright’s 2004 recommendations be imple-mented. That would put a new struc-ture to the collective bargaining pro-cess leading to binding arbitration if negotiations are not successful. I also proposed $280 million in new money for the education system from a res-toration of the industrial school tax that Gordon Campbell cut in 2008. Please visit my web page (www.bob-simpsonmla.ca) to get a fuller version of what I’ve proposed to address this situation and prevent it from occur-ring again.

Essential?There’s something terribly wrong with how the
province’s school system is valued.It begins with the law declaring education as an
essential service. No argument here. But things go haywire when teachers then go be-
fore the provincial Labour Relations Board asking for permission to withdraw certain services, which they did last fall.
That permission is not only granted but the school districts then lose the argument that because teach-ers are doing less, they should be paid less.
This theme carried on last week when the same Labour Relations Board ruled teachers could strike for up to three days without seriously disrupting a student’s education.
Not good news for the parent of a young student
struggling to learn the basics of reading, writing and arithmetic nor for the high school student hop-ing to earn a scholarship.
Nor is it good news for taxpayers to learn that they are paying for some school and teacher ser-vices which, in the opinion of the Labour Relations Board, aren’t needed.
Now consider the hours teachers spend on extra curricular activities.
It’s work without compensation but generally ex-pected as part of the overall system.
On the one hand, we’re paying teachers for work that isn’t needed and then aren’t paying them for something of actual value.
No wonder no one can make any sense of what’s going on.

Question of the weekNDP would make B.C.a have-not province
Editor:
Re: Andrew Riegel letter, Tues-day March 6 Tribune.
Once again another amazing NDP supporter fighting the last election. Riegel seems to for-get that the Socreds were forced from power in the August 1972 election, paving the way for a provincial NDP government un-der Dave Barrett.
The large provincial surplus soon became a deficit.
The NDP lasted one term be-fore the taxpayers said enough is enough, and voted back in a co-alition government. Andrew also seems to forget that Glen Clark won his government election by a three-seat majority.
The present B.C. Liberal gov-ernment is on the right track re-garding the management of B.C. taxpayer dollars.
Elected government in 2001, the B.C. Liberals inherited a
“have-not” province from the former NDP government.
In 2002, after being govern-ment for a year, the B.C. Liberals once again made B.C. a “have” province.
Both Manitoba and Nova Sco-tia have NDP provincial gov-ernments, and in the fiscal year 2011-2012, the Ottawa federal government will give Manitoba $1.6 billion and $1.1 billion to Nova Scotia for being “have-not” provinces.
These payments are called equalization payments. As B.C. is a “have” province, B.C. receives zero payments from the federal government.
Manitoba and Nova Scotia re-quire this “have-not” money to cover payments to education, health care, welfare, etc. In sum-mary, why ever think of changing the guard when B.C. is well man-aged?
Riegel is saying that it is time
to once again elect a NDP gov-ernment. If that is true, then an NDP government will be only in for one term, put B.C. back into a have-not status, and after one term, the B.C. taxpayers would vote in a coalition government once again to clean up the mess.
The Glen Clark government had to have all decisions approved by Ken Georgetti. Do B.C. taxpayers want an Adrian Dix government that would have to get all deci-sions approved by Jim Sinclair? I don’t think so.
I hate reading comments like Riegel’s remembering the past nightmares of a provincial NDP government.
Just complete nonsense for a B.C. taxpayer to make com-ments like these, shooting off from the hip just like Sinclair.
Use facts and reality before writing dear-editor letters.
Joe SawchukDuncan
Recently the news in B.C. has been full of stories about the Vancouver
Stanley Cup riot which has led to charges, arrests, and court ap-pearances for many.
It seems that most of the blame for the illegal acts committed is easily placed upon the severe in-toxication, which led these nor-mally upstanding citizens (fueled by mob-fever) to abandon their usual good judgment/morals on the night. For those charged with the more heinous crimes (com-mitted by persons who thought the sheer size of the mob would allow them to steal, wreck and destroy property with a lesser-than-normal chance of apprehen-sion — darn those cellphones) it’s harder to find a plausible place to lay the blame.
In Coalinga, Calif. someone re-
cently set fire to more than a doz-en cattle trucks parked at one of the state’s largest feedlots, Har-ris Farms. The fire is believed to have been triggered by containers of accelerant set beneath the ve-hicles, 14 of which were totally destroyed in the ensuing inferno (one source reported that animal activists had claimed responsibil-ity).
If that is the case, how could they (activists or perpetrators) be certain that those trucks were un-occupied? Most cattle liners these
days contain sleeping compart-ments, in which the truck driver is usually resting when the truck is at a stand still. How on Earth could who ever lit that fire have excused (justified) the deaths (killing) of possibly as many as 14 human beings in what is fun-damentally a personal belief is-sue? What if a sleeping driver had perished?
Protest all you want (luckily we may); it’s a right and a privilege, often taken for granted, in our part of North America. But please leave the criminal acts undone as there really is no excuse or place to shift the blame when you cause personal injury or death to inno-cent people enveloped by actions of your cause or protest.

Locals shine at BC GamesDespite a small number of repre-
sentatives at this year’s B.C. Winter Games Williams Lake athletes came up big.
Of the 1,145 athletes from throughout the province who com-peted at the Games just four were from Williams Lake. This year’s Games went from Feb. 23-26 in Vernon.
From Williams Lake were hockey players Victoria Byer, 14, and Ch-antelle Beadman-Rolph, gymnast Andrew Bettles, 14, and coach Mike Stinson, and judo competitor Rudy Klaue, 15.
Williams Lake athletes competed as part of the Cariboo-North East zone, which tallied 14 gold med-als, 19 silver medals and 15 bronze medals for 48 medals in total.
In hockey Byer and Beadman-Rolph claimed one of the zone’s bronze medals.
The girls, both defenceman on Cariboo-North East team, fin-ished their tournament with three wins and one loss, beating the host Thompson-Okanagan zone 3-1 in the bronze medal game.
“We played four games,” Byer said, who noted the Games were a great opportunity to meet and get to know other players from the prov-ince. “The team we lost to (Fraser Valley) ended up finishing first.”
The Cariboo-North East zone defeated Vancouver Island 4-0 and beat the Kootenays 4-0, before fall-ing 5-3 to the Fraser Valley, landing them in the bronze medal game.
Beadman-Rolph, who competed in her second year at the Games, said it was extremely satisfying to medal this year.
“It was really good,” she said. “There were a lot of good quality fe-male players there. Our team, most of the core were Prince George play-ers, so we knew most of them, and we all fit in very well.
“We weren’t expecting a medal. Compared to last year’s team we were really good. We are just the second team from the north to get a medal ever in hockey.”
Byer plays her hockey here in Williams Lake, captaining the Wil-liams Lake Bantam Tier 3 rep boys team, while Beadman-Rolph plays for the Prince George Midget Girls ‘AAA’ Cougars.
In men’s gymnastics Bettles said he had a great time competing. Bettles finished eighth in the final round of vault, competing against
national-level and high performance gymnasts.
“It was lots of fun meeting all the other competitors and athletes,” he said. “There were about 21 other male gymnasts there.”
Bettles competed in six events — mushroom, floor, vault, parallel bars, rings and high bar.
“I was pretty happy with how I did,” he said.
Stinson, coach of the Williams Lake Gymnastics Club, travelled with the Cariboo-North East team as a coach. He said the Games were a great opportunity for Bettles to showcase his improved skills, and added an eighth-place finish against gymnasts of that calibre is impres-sive.
“His scores went up quite a bit this year,” Stinson said. “Last year there was a bit of a learning curve for us [at the club] with it being my first year back coaching with the boys, but I also pulled it all together for them and pointed them in a new direction.
“There were a lot of things they were doing that were new to them last year so it was tough. When you transition in our sport it’s a big tran-sition.”
Stinson said competing at the Games was a once in a lifetime op-portunity for Bettles, as male gym-nasts are only allowed one year of eligibility at the event.
Klaue, a Williams Lake Judo Club Member for the past five years, tossed his way to a silver medal as part of the Cariboo-North East zone.
Klaue, who lives in 150 Mile House, also competed in the male under-18 kilogram division, finish-ing fourth.
Klaue echoed his peers’ comments and said the Games were a blast.
Both his singles matches were lost partly due to a bit of bad luck, he added.
“I threw [my opponents] both times but somehow they got the point,” Klaue said, noting points are scored in judo by throwing your op-ponents shoulders to the mat.
He said a Japanese martial arts term called a kiai — essentially a yell — signals to the referee you are attacking.
“If I had kiai’d I think I would have got it,” he said. “Both throws were sacrifice throws where we both ended up on the ground so I needed to let the referee know with a kiai.”
That said, Klaue was quite pleased with quality of his silver medal.
“It’s pretty much as shiny as my bathroom mirror,” he joked.
“It’s very cool.”

Rec hockey finals Friday
The annual lakecity wrestling tradition, Smackdown, continued Saturday, celebrating its 13th year of putting smiles on kids’ faces.
Smackdown, hosted at Williams Lake Sec-ondary School, is an elementary only tourna-ment featuring athletes from kindergarten to Grade 7.
This year’s tourna-ment played host to 126 athletes from eight dif-ferent wrestling clubs from around the prov-ince, including teams from Prince George, 100 Mile House, the Horse Lake areas and Williams Lake.
“All in all the tourna-ment was a huge suc-cess,” said Williams Lake Wrestling Club
president Sonia Conrod. “All the kids had tons of fun, which is a reward in itself.
“We look forward to hosting it next year, as well as our annual Fall Brawl Tournament for high school wrestlers, which will be in No-vember.”
Conrod said the WLWC believes there are no losers at the pri-mary level of wrestling, and especially during Smackdown. All prima-ry athletes, kindergarten to Grade 3, received participation medals at the event.
“We had 19 wrestlers in total representing the Williams Lake Black ‘n Blue this year,” she said. “Each weight class in the primary and inter-
mediate levels had two to six kids competing for medals. Each group was a round robin competi-tion with three to five matches per group.”
Several primary stu-dents got their boots dirty Saturday, includ-ing a very keen kinder-garten group — Trey Alphonse, Gage Davis, Josiah Sill and Noe Jelks. Girls kindergar-ten wrestlers were Kalli Campbell and Ella Kru-uz.
Tyler Ross, Timu Kru-uz, Jacob Worthington and Kyler Johnny made up the Grade 1s, Steven Campbell, Gabriel Eves and Octavious Sill were the Grade 2s and Corbin Ash was the lone Grade 3 competitor.
On the intermediate
side Conrod said the competition was fierce.
On the Grade 4-5 boys side Brayden Hall took his first gold med-al. Also, Nathan Preston captured his first gold medal.
Silver medal winners were Zane Barr and Alexander Eves, who, Conrod said, gave an intense effort.
Also in the grades 4-5 division Timothy Dodds battled his way to a bronze medal, while first-year wrestler Colby Ash took fourth in his weight class.
Conrod said the WLWC would like to thank all the volunteers, parents and athletes that made Saturday’ even possible.
“We would like to
thank all the volunteers and parents that helped to make our tournament a success,” she said.
“We look forward to a new season in October and we’re hoping to see many new faces on the
mat. Next up is Canada Day in the park, and we will be there doing an exhibition and recruit-ing event.
“Congratulations to all the participants this year, and to a great sea-
son!”Also, late Febru-
ary, the lakecity’s high school grapplers took part at the provincial wrestling champion-ships. For story see a future Tribune.

Have you ever felt an uncomfortable silence when someone starts getting too personal about money? Why is that? I nd it odd that people share their most intimate details with friends and strangers on Facebook, yet completely clam up when the subject of money comes up.
Like it or not, money is what makes our society click. Canadians enjoy one of the highest qualities of life in the world, and money is a big part of the reason why.
My name is Darren Weeks and I am one of the fortunate few who LOVES to talk about money. More speci cally, I love to talk about the fundamentals that help people create and protect their wealth.
Real independence comes when you learn how to make money work for you. Money knowledge needs to be at your side in all situations... like a trusted friend who does nice things for you on a regular basis.
My company, the Fast Track Group, has been ranked among Canada’s Fastest Growing Companies for two straight years now. Last year, we nished 40th on PROFIT Magazine’s list. In 10 years, I have taken it from 5 employees in one tiny o ce, to over 100 employees and 14 o ces. More than 350,000 Canadians have now attended Fast Track events. All our success has enabled us to support people that inspire us. The Fast Track Group is the title sponsor of Canada’s Luge team and we support them to the tune of over $1 million per year.
On top of providing FREE nancial education to all Canadians, my company is able to o er better returns and tax savings to our investors thanks to our partnerships with multinational Companies. We are not some “ y-by-night corporation.”
My greatest pride in all of this?
Seeing my clients, students and peers succeeding and thriving in the current
economy.
Rob Chaulk came to one of my events in the Spring of 2008. He grew up in a family with a poor dad, and a rich dad (his uncle). So Rob had been given a good start on his money education. But it wasn’t enough.
Rob was a hard worker that knew his job wasn’t going to make life any easier. He held careers in the energy and industrial sector. He dabbled in some businesses along the way in the restaurant and towing business.
When Rob read Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki, he took it seriously and within 30 days he bought his rst rental property. He was hooked. He put together a plan for 10 properties in 10 years... his key to retirement. Right around this same time he had lunch with his rich dad (his multi-millionaire uncle).
Not exactly an easy guy to talk to, his uncle “Frank” was self-made and not easy to approach
about money. But Rob did approach him - and Frank told him Money is ALL about leverage.
Frank then went on and shared with Rob one of the greatest lessons he had ever
learned.
When your money makes more money for you than your job does... then you are well on your way to nancial freedom. If you make $20 an hour at your job - true nancial independence begins when the money you invest is making
you $25 an hour, without you having to do anything more. Frank showed him how to turn his rental property into 10 properties in just 12 months.
Rob Met Darren
Rob then came to a Get Rich in Canada event, hosted by myself... and was able to create a $4 million dollar property portfolio in just 24 months.
As Rob says “Money is just the scorecard. When you understand the rules of the game - and how the game works - the money will nd you! Now it’s my turn to pass on my knowledge and experience.”
While he was building his portfolio of properties, Rob also took his health very seriously. Rob was overweight, had sleep apnea and was sluggish every waking hour.
After dropping over 100 pounds
Rob found a new lifestyle that had been long lost, and a money mindset that continues to help him and his family with all of the retirement and dreams.
Is it your turn to master the money mindset?
I am proud to share that my system has worked for everyone who aggressively applied it. You could be the one with a large real estate portfolio and a business or two that runs without you.
...Many people are broke, and will stay that way for the rest of their life.
My company has organized an event coming up in your city and I would like you to join us. There is no cost to attend. My team is here to make sure you get the tools you need for creating the independence you crave.
Give us 3 hours of your time and we’ll give you
powerful strategies that are guaranteed to change your life.
Find out how to get out of bad debt and into wise investments. Discover how anyone, no matter how dire their circumstances, can go from rags to riches in 5 years or less. My students and business partners are prime examples of how you can start with nothing and build a very healthy investment portfolio and business in 5 years or less.
The best part? We don’t just show you what to do... you get the formula to go as fast as you like, and can handle. Most seminars share the what – not the how. We show you both with speci c examples, formulas and resources to get you there on your own pace. Don’t go it alone! Bring a friend or family member with you and enjoy the journey to
wealth as a team. When you reserve your seat at this event, just mention who you want to bring and we will also give you a CD that sells for $39.95.
Nothing good is ever FREE... right? Wrong. I know you may be sceptical because we aren’t charging you for this event. Think about this.Rob started o at a free event just like this. He heard about an event just like this put on by my company. He attended and absorbed every ounce of information shared, and took MASSIVE ACTION. He is now nancially independent and able to live life on his own terms.
What should you do next? Pick up your phone and dial 1-877-742-4236 or visit our website atwww.WilliamsLakeGetRich.com and reserveyour seat there. Find one or more friends or family members who want out of the rat racelike you do... and get them a seat booked aswell.
Last? Don’t let anyone discourage you or get in your way. Real independence starts when you learn to ignore all the negative people in your life who don’t want you to succeed. Make sureyou show up, take lots of notes, and immediately start putting these ideas into action.
If a completely unknown individual can be in the same situation you are and become nancially independent in 5 years or less... why can’t you? This is the real deal and I have gone from $0 to $100 million in revenues in just 10 years using these strategies... my students are proof that my techniques work everywhere, for anyone who is willing to take action.
Stop what you are doing right now and get your seat booked. Dial 1-877-742-4236 or visit our website at www.WilliamsLakeGetRich.com andreserve your seat there.
PS: The de nition of insanity is “doing thesame thing over and over again and expecting di erent results!” Your success demands aninvestment of your time and money... and we are handing you a grand opportunity to improveyour odds of success many times over. Join us for an incredible journey – with a proven way to make 2012 the year you’ve always wanted.

Master Your Money
The New Wealth Secret A true story of an unlikely underdog who mastered the money game
Which of these would you like to put a permanent end to?• Constantly checking your bank balance to
make sure there is enough left over to cover the monthly bills.
• Worrying about how you will EVER get out of the rut and nally be able to start relaxing about money.
• Arguing with your spouse about money and the challenges that come with a lack of it.
• Dreaming about that vacation you have always wanted and needed, yet knowing it will never happen at the rate you are going now.
• The fear that your children will be just as bad with their money as you have been.
• Fretting over those unexpected expenses that come in – knowing full well you have to do a lot of shu ing to scrape together enough to cover them o .
• The jealousy you feel when someone you know ends up doing well nancially, knowing FULL WELL you are smarter than they are.
When you understand the rules of the game...the money
will nd you!

Dancer and artist Debra McNie is looking for participants to help her fulfill a dream she had about creat-ing a play about the Potato House Project.
She says she had a dream about creating the play shortly after at-tending the society’s open house last summer.
“So vivid was my dream I felt compelled to share the dream and concept for the play with the so-ciety,” McNie says. “The board of directors agreed I should move for-ward to make my dream a reality.”
As a young girl living in Williams Lake McNie remembers seeing Manuel and Alcina Quintela work-ing in their garden when she made trips to town with her mother.
After a number of years living in Vancouver McNie and her husband moved their family back to Wil-liams Lake in 1992.
“All felt right with the world to see Manuel and Alcina still living in their home and to see them in their garden once again was comforting for me,” McNie says. “When Al-cina passed and Manuel moved out of the house it was a reminder that time does not stand still.”
She was pleased to learn about Potato House Project Society and the future plans for the Quintela’s house to become a centre for educa-
tion on sustainability.“It was wonderful to know that
the house would not remain empty and would continue to have a gar-den,” McNie says.
The play she is creating will be called Potato Dreams and will be historic fiction to be performed out-side, on location this summer.
McNie is seeking both actors and writers to join her in development of the play.
“No previous theatrical experi-ence is needed to participate in this production. My team and I will be available to consult and mentor,” McNie says. “This is a great oppor-tunity to experience from beginning to end the creation of an original production as it is developed to a quality fitting for an audience to see.”
The story line is about a woman who has lived in the house and re-
visits the house after many years being away. While she lived in the house she was visited in her dreams by magical people.
The dreams are woven through-out the story which is shared with the audience through a conversa-tion between the woman in her later years when she returns to the house and an older man who visits the house when she returns.
“A message of sustainability for our people, our land, and arts and culture will be at the forefront of this production,” McNie says.
McNie is seeking input from in-dividuals and/or groups to develop dream sequences for the play. She says dream sequences must be orig-inal and can include music, dance, story-telling and more, but should take no longer than 15 to 20 min-utes to perform. The play is for all ages.
“The possibilities are endless when imagination is at play,” Mc-Nie says.
McNie asks that dream sequence outlines be submitted no later than April 10. Applications are available by contacting McNie at [email protected] or on the web at www.potatohouseproject.com.
Hard copies are available at Dan-delion Living at 271 Oliver St.
People interested in joining her writing team and enjoying the col-laborative process of creating a play can leave a message at 250-398-
6344 or contact her by e-mail at [email protected].
“We will be writing the fictional story/script of the woman’s life and integrating the dreams into the sto-ry,” McNie says.
Auditions for the play will be held on April 15 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Central Cariboo Arts Centre on Fourth Avenue North.
The lead character is the woman appearing to be in her mid 60s. She will narrate and tell the story of her life and dreams during the conver-sation with the older man who also appears to be in his late 60s and vis-its the house to listen to the wom-an’s stories.
Other main characters include a father in his 30s to early 40s; daugh-ter seven to nine years old, daughter in late teens to early 20s, a young First Nations man in mid 20s, four-to-six other adult and youth actors to be in the audience, and a horse that must be good around people and work for hay.
She is also hoping to have the play filmed. There are also places in the production for dancers, musi-cians, singers, artists and set, make-up, costumes, and more to help with the production.
“Those involved, no matter what capacity, will help create a wonder-ful and uplifting magical play for all to enjoy,” McNie says.

Community rallies for Nimpo Lake pilot Sid Blackwell
Friends of Sid and Cora Blackwell of Nimpo Lake are rally-ing to their support af-ter Sid was diagnosed with an aggressive and rare form of cancer called Angiosarcoma.

He has been under-going treatments, but his options in Canada are limited and he is now taking treatment in the U.S.
Sid’s employer, Nick Hawes of Lakes District Air, has spear-headed an online fund-raising drive, inviting people to donate for Sid’s treatments. The goal for Sid’s treat-ment is $250,000.
The website to do-nate online is: http://w w w . g o f u n d m e .c o m / f d f 6 o ? u t m _s o u r c e = s e n d g r i d .c o m & u t m _medium=email&utm_campaign=Emails.

Spring break fun at Scout Island
Spring break starts this weekend and is an extra long one for School Dis-trict 27 students running March 10 to 25.
Rather than sitting home bored for all that time the Scout Island Nature Centre encour-ages parents to have their children visit the nature centre for some of that time.
The Scout Island spring break program will have kids out-side exploring, playing games and having ad-ventures all three days it is offered, says program co-ordinator Jenny No-ble. Indoors, nature will continue to guide the art
activities.“We will be outdoors
as much as possible actively exploring and playing,” Noble says.
March 13: the theme is Be a Detective, studying skeletons and tracks.
March 14: the theme is Owls Hoot and Song Birds Sing.
March 15: the theme is Spring is Coming — Really — the plants are telling us.
The program runs 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. each day.
The cost is $15 a day or $40 for all three days
To register call 250-398-8532 or e-mail [email protected].
Economic growth discussedDr. Glen Schmidt
an associate professor from the University of Northern British Co-lumbia will give a talk at city hall on March 15 from 6 to 8 p.m. on the topic Social Aspects of Rapid Eco-nomic Growth.
Everyone is invited to attend this presen-tation which is pre-sented free by the city’s Social Planning
Council and the City of Williams Lake.
While serving in several roles at UNBC Schmidt continues to be involved in direct social work practice on a part-time basis working primarily in the areas of mental health and employee assistance.
Most recently he has been examining agency and organiza-
tion capacity build-ing in northern B.C. as well as drug use among northern B.C. youth.

Annual Mortgage ReviewWe’ve said it before and we’ll say it again! An annual mortgage review is a must! Mortgage experts agree that if you make time for a quick review at the beginning of each year it may yield some fruitful fi nancial savings.
Your home loan review should examine the most common potential monthly savings opportunities including high-interest credit card debt. Perhaps your home is fi nanced through a fi rst and second mortgage? If so, reviewing your options to combine the two could result in having more money left over at the end of each month.
With interest rates still near historic lows now is the time to investigate all your options and perhaps save yourself thousands of dollars per year! Imagine what you could do with the savings – anything from renovating or investing to going on a much-needed vacation or putting money towards your children’s education.
Additionally, no review would be complete without examining your options for mortgage insurance and whether you really have the protection your family deserves. Many mortgage brokers also offer mortgage protection plans, and can make recommendations that will protect you and your loved ones now and into the future.
Completing a straightforward review with a qualifi ed mortgage professional will keep your home fi nancing as lean and trim as possible. You will have a clean bill of mortgage health which is just what the doctor ordered!

Cariboo Mountains climate researcher to speak at Scout Island Nature Centre
In the middle of win-ter, we may think that global warming is not such a bad thing … as long as the snow is good for skiing.
But to scientific re-searcher Dr. Stephen Déry, snow and ice are not just fun and pictur-esque, they’re vital to our survival. Standing on top of Spanish Mountain in the Cariboo Mountains, Déry has a commanding view of the surrounding countryside.
Far below is Quesnel Lake, the deepest glacier-created lake in Canada.
The scene is straight out of a tourism brochure, but it is an area at risk.
“We’ve all seen and heard about the effects of climate change in the Arctic but areas of high altitude are equally sus-ceptible to the global warming trend,” says Déry in the discussion notice for his upcoming talk at the Scout Island Nature Centre on March 13.
Nature Centre pro-gram co-ordinator Jenny Noble says the society is excited to be hosting Déry who will talk about his research and implica-
tions for the region’s wa-tershed.
Déry holds a PhD in at-mospheric sciences from McGill University and came to the University of Northern B.C. from Princeton University as a Canada research chair.
As assistant professor, environmental science and engineering and Canada research chair — Northern Hydrome-teorology, Déry has been studying the effects of cli-mate change in the Cari-boo Mountains above Quesnel Lake, and be-lieves that the mountain-ous regions of western North America will ex-perience rates of climate change much higher than
the global average. “Many scientists pre-
dict that the mountainous regions of western North America — otherwise known as the Western
Cordillera — will expe-rience rates of climate change much higher than the global average,” Déry says.
“This has huge im-plications for the water cycle and whether water will continue to be stored as snow and ice. This is the perfect place to study how climate variability at high altitudes will affect access to our most pre-cious natural resource: fresh water.”
Déry will be the spe-cial guest speaker at the Scout Island Nature Cen-tre on March 13 starting at 7 p.m. The presenta-tion is free and open to everyone.
Photo submittedDr. Stephen Déry is researching the impact of climate change on the Cariboo Mountains east of Williams Lake.

McLeese Lake revitalization project appreciated
The McLeese Lake Recreation Society is very pleased and proud of the revitalization of the community hall building and property that was performed during the 2011 year.
Under the direction of society president Howie Chamberlin, he and his directors have completed and/or have had a hand in giving the property the face-lift it so desperately
needed. As you drive by the
hall, the first thing noticeable is the new siding.
Other improvements made last year which are not as noticeable are upgrades to the insulation, lights im-proved to energy effi-cient ones, a new sep-tic tank, upgrades to the plumbing system, a new basement door, weather stripping for all doors, and new panic hardware.
The ball diamond
infield has also been improved with level-ling.
The McLeese Lake Society sponsored sev-eral events throughout the year which includ-ed two community barbecues, one held in the winter and another one held in the sum-mer which included a quad ride.
The annual Christ-mas pot-luck supper was a huge success as well.
This event defi-nitely brings out the
community members who are very support-ive in providing items for the annual auction, which is one of the major fundraisers.
There are many people who make the achievement of the so-ciety’s events a great success and we extend our appreciation to them all.
The hall and proper-ty is a nicer and better facility and is open for business.
If you would like to rent the building
or ball diamond for a wedding, graduation, ball tournament or family reunion, etc., please contact Howie Chamberlin at 1-250-297-6429 to reserve your day or weekend.
There were also plenty of improve-ments made through the Downtown Revi-talization program. As you drive through downtown McLeese Lake, you will notice two new farm imple-ments and two new gardens on the west
side in front of the Oa-sis Resort.
A new underground watering system was installed which makes the watering of the hanging baskets and flowers much easier and more beneficial.
We are not so reliant on volunteers for that huge job.
One last note of great importance. The McLeese Lake Recre-ational Society annual general meeting is be-ing held on Wednes-day, March 14 at 7:30
p.m. in the community hall.
If you haven’t seen the upgraded build-ing, that night will be a good opportunity for you to do so.
A local resident quorum is necessary for the meeting to pro-ceed, so we are asking for local community members to please at-tend.
The directors look forward to sponsoring more events during 2012 and will keep you posted.

Dreaming a dream for a sustainable community
Creating a little dramatic his-tory for Williams Lake comes naturally to Debra McNie who grew up in Williams Lake and Prince George under the tute-lage of parents who believed in giving back to their community in many ways.
She lived in William Lake from 1953 to 1965, then in Prince George where she got her start in dance with Thyra War-burg Madsen. She left Prince George in 1969 to train with Kay Armstrong in Vancouver.
McNie spent many years working as a professional dancer in Vancouver, training, perform-ing and teaching with the Syner-gy Dance Company, taking mas-ter classes with Martha Graham Dance Company, Dance Theatre of Harlem, Joffrey Ballet and many other dance companies.
In 1980 she co-founded the Maple Ridge Dance Circle which is still thriving.
She has taught Graham, con-temporary, ballet and various dance techniques for more than 40 years.
Since returning to Williams Lake in 1992 McNie has taught dance workshops for all ages and has been involved in cre-ative choreography, movement coaching, directing, and produc-ing for various Studio Theatre productions such as The Fanta-sticks, The Little Shop of Hor-rors, Fame, and Ravenscroft, The Spirit Hotel, and entertainment for the Williams Lake Stampede Parade and Street Party.
She currently serves as sec-retary for the Central Cariboo Arts and Culture Society and is spearheading the creation of a
community play in support of the Potato House Project Soci-ety and its goal of making the old Quintela house in downtown Williams Lake a centre for edu-cation on sustainable living.
The play will include dance, music, and acting in dream se-quences which the public is be-ing invited to participate in cre-ating.
McNie is married to Bob Mc-Nie who is a registered nurse for Interior Health. They have four children and one grandchild.
Their son Jason and his wife Jenn live in Langley.
Son Greg lives in Williams Lake with his wife Michelle and daughter Jada.
Son Doug and his wife Jenn live in Calgary.
Daughter Jes lives in Burna-by.
“Bob and I truly enjoy seeing the world through the eyes of our six-year-old granddaughter, Jada, who has inherited the cre-ative gene,” McNie says.
“She is taking art classes at The Station House Gallery with Rachel Walker and is about to begin ballet classes with Melissa Newberry.”
McNie’s parents are the late Victor and Viva Imhoff who moved to Williams Lake in the 1930s and became very connect-ed to the community and active in volunteer work.
Her father once co-owned a gas station which was located on the empty lot next to The Station House Gallery and had his own small logging operation.
He was a steam engineer and grader operator who helped build many roads in the Cariboo.
He was also a musician and played with many big bands in-cluding an army band. Later in
life he began to paint in oil and water colours.
Her mother was active with the development of the Williams Lake Figure Skating Club, pot-tery club and Eastern Star.
Viva made many costumes for the skating club and was a figure skating judge. She was raised on the Fraser River at Watson Bar at the MacDonald Ranch now known as the Ward Creek Ranch.
“My mother was an avid
horsewoman,” McNie says. “She was most comfortable out-doors picking berries or work-ing the land. As children we were taught to be active within the community and to help oth-ers. My grandmother was Mary MacDonald who passed at the age of 106, in 1998.”
Her grandmother’s father was Joseph Haller who drove the supply wagons during the Gold Rush and owned what is now known as the Ok Ranch.
McNie has three older sisters Gala-Mae (Rennie) Johnson of 150 Mile House; Karen (Da-vid) DuBois of Port Moody; and Vicki (Aldo) Foco of Windsor, Ont.
“Gala-Mae has always been active with the 150 Mile and Williams Lake communities and currently volunteers, at the Se-niors’ Activity Centre, Museum of the Cariboo Chilcotin and Princess Pine chapter of Eastern Star,” McNie says.
Victor and Viva Imhoff circa the late 1930s or early 1940s.

Hansen monument fundraiser this SaturdayThe New World Cof-
fee and Tea House will hold a fundraiser this Sat-urday, March 10 to help raise funds for the new monument being created
to commemorate Rick Hansen’s 25th anniver-sary tour.
Coffee and tea will be served by donation to the monument fund
from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. All proceeds will go toward funding the monument that will be established at the Tourism Discovery Centre and be in place in
time for Hansen’s arrival in the lakecity on March 25. “Fundraising for this project is nearly com-plete, and we invite any-one interested in helping
fund this monument to a hometown hero to join us at New World Coffee and Tea House for a cup of coffee or tea,” says Coun. Surinderpal Rathor. “This
has always been a com-munity project, and we’d love to build on the gener-ous support of our donors so far.” A community celebration is planned for
March 25, beginning at 4 p.m. at the Cariboo Me-morial Recreation Com-plex. The monument will be unveiled March 26 at 11 a.m. at the TDC.

Ivadelle C. Wynstra, (Ivy), age 84, passed away very unexpectedly, but peacefully, in her home on Sunday, February 26th, 2012.
For all of those who knew Ivy, it would be agreed, that she was, “One of a Kind”, and the mould was broken after she was born. She was “very” outspoken, and called a spade a spade.
A close friend, at one time told Ivy, “You’re tough as an old boiled owl!” Another close friend gave her a plaque, which reads: “Lord, keep your arm around my shoulder, and your hand over my mouth!” Ivy got a kick out of these things, as they both were “Ivy” through and through.
Ivy lived most of her life in the Cariboo and loved it. She was very generous and would give you the “shirt off her back”, if she thought you really needed it. If someone was in need of help, she would be the fi rst to volunteer, as she wasn’t afraid of hard work, because she had done it all her life.
Her favourite things to do were mowing her lawn, on her ride-on-mower; stacking wood in the wood shed; going for “buggy rides” to town and eating lunch or supper out.
Ivy had a great love for dogs and had many dogs during her life time. It was always a dream of hers to have her own dog shelter, so she could feed, love and protect as many as possible. Her last two dogs, Salty and Pepper, were black and white, a shitzu-poodle cross. She got them when they were eight weeks old and they were the love of her life. They were her “babies” for thirteen faithful years. At Ivy’s request, Salty and Pepper were put peacefully to sleep on the day after her passing, so they can have their wings with her.
Ivy was always loyal, faithful, and dependable. She was a “true friend” to those she cared about. She was a very special lady and most defi nitely “One of a Kind!!!”
... She will Never be Forgotten and Always Missed ...Ivy is survived by: Her daughter, Mabel Young of Nelson, BC Her son and daughter-in-law, Larry & Sharon Young, Clearwater, BCFive Grandchildren: Granddaughter, Corrie of Surrey, BC Grandson, Paul of Nelson, BC Granddaughter, Tina of Olds, AB Granddaughter, Daisy of Nelson, BC Granddaughter, Jacquelyn of Nelson, BCFive Great Grandchildren.Neighbours and Caregivers of 15years: Patty Dowd and Bob Zumwalt of Horsefl y, BCIvy was predeceased by: Husband, Owen Wynstra in 1997.At Ivy’s request, there will be no funeral service. In lieu of fl owers, donations can be made in her memory, to the SPCA.
