williams lake tribune, september 17, 2014

B.C.’s striking teachers are ex-pected to vote this week on a tenta-tive settlement with the provincial government.

Mediator Vince Ready an-nounced the agreement early Tuesday morning after five days of talks at a Richmond hotel. The B.C. Teachers’ Federation and the province’s negotiators agreed to withhold details until they have a final document to present, he said.

In Williams Lake, with the an-nouncement there may be light at the end of the teacher dispute tun-nel, nine-year-old Rachel Loewen said Tuesday she is ready to get back in the classroom.

Sitting in a doctor’s waiting room with her grandmother, Ra-chel said: “Yeah. I am so excited to be going back to school. I have wanted to go back from the very beginning.”

The student’s sentiments were echoed on the picket line as news about the tentative deal began to filter out into media.

Standing at the Williams Lake Secondary Campus on Carson Av-enue, Andy Riegl, staff representa-tive and Cariboo Chilcotin Teach-ers’ Association bargaining chair, said he’d heard some of the news by Tuesday morning.

“One of our Kamloops bargain-ing members said the agreement is something we could live with. It’s not going to be wonderful and it will be a compromise.”

CITY OF WILLIAMS LAKE - NOTICE OF TAX SALE

CENTRAL CARIBOO GRANT FOR ASSISTANCE

APPLICATION

A black bear sow and her two cubs were destroyed last week-end in Williams Lake near Eleventh and Twelfth Avenue. Their demise came a few days after three other bears met the same fate.

The sow was killed first around 3 a.m. Saturday and the cubs later at around 4 p.m., said Sgt. Len Butler of the Conservation Officer Services Mon-day.

Many residents in the neighbourhood heard the cubs crying

throughout the day. Some watched the cubs come frantically running into their yards, most likely con-fused and looking for their mom.

“A trap had been set, and officers had been going to the area because several com-plaints were coming in,” Butler said. “Of-ficers and the Wild-SafeBC co-ordinator were trying to get peo-ple to clean up their yards, but the bears became so habituated that they didn’t stand a chance.”

Since news of the bears being destroyed has surfaced the COS

has received some negative feedback from people calling in, Butler said.

“People can vent on the CO service all they want, but the reality is that people will not change their habits

and bears are going to die. We don’t move black bears because the science and expe-rience say it’s wrong, so what are we going to do?”

Butler said COs took a drive Saturday

and couldn’t believe how much unpicked and dumped fruit there was in back al-leys.

“In Quesnel it’s get-ting to a point where we may have to ad-vise that we are going

to start issuing fines to people not clean-ing their attractants,” Butler said, adding there isn’t any other recourse. “Why would the bears leave?”

Additionally the neighourhood is home to dozens of large cra-bapple trees planted in the 1970s by the city along the edge of properties being new-ly developed at a time when that type of tree was approved.

When asked if the city might consider removing the trees be-cause they are a bear attractant, the city’s communications co-ordinator Ken Ma-

cInnis said the city only removes dead or dangerous trees about to fall down.

And when it comes to removing the fruit the onus is on the property owner, Ma-cInnis confirmed.

Around 20 bear complaints a day are coming in to the (Report all Poachers and Pollutors) RAPP line for the Williams Lake and 150 Mile House areas, Butler confirmed saying he was away all last week dealing with grizzly bears in downtown Bella Coola that offi-cers managed to chase out to the river.

The race for mayor in Williams Lake could be interesting, particularly now that the Bushman of the Shuswap has an-nounced he plans to run for mayor.

John Bjornstrom, 54, told the Tribune Tues-day he wanted to run in 2011, but missed filing his papers in time.

Bjornstrom was in the news more than a decade ago when he was a fugitive on a two-year run from police after stealing from cabins in the Shuswap Lake area.

He admitted his repu-tation as the Bushman will most likely come up during the campaign.

“Things happen in life and you either move on or drown dwelling in it,” he said. “I can use it to my benefit. Every-thing you’ve done in

life comes along and ei-ther bites you or blesses you.”

Bjornstrom said he probably looks at things differently than a lot of people with a regu-lar platform, however, he believes he can do a good job and be good for people.

So far he’s had no experience inside the political arena, and de-scribed his foray into

running for mayor as an adventure.

“City politics has always interested me because it’s about help-ing your town move for-ward,” he said.

Ever since he posted his intent to run for mayor on his Facebook page on Sept. 10. The story has been picked up by national news outlets.

“It’s gone crazy,” he said. “Tonight [Sept. 16] I am supposed to be interviewed by Global News at city hall.”

Bjornstrom has been living in Williams Lake since 2002, although he attended high school here back in the 1970s. He hauls logs back and forth from Williams Lake to Anahim Lake.

So far two other can-didates are in the race — present councillor Surinderpal Rathor and Mayor Kerry Cook.

Concerns that sewage held in the Mount Polley tailing storage facility would have been part of the Aug. 4 breach have led to several inquiries from residents who get their water from Quesnel Lake.

“Some people had some E. coli analysis done and had some ques-tions at the community

open house last week about what are safe lev-els for E. coli,” Rob Britles, environmental health specialist with Interior Health, told the Tribune Monday. “The message we’ve been giv-ing is if you’ve got an intake from surface wa-ter anywhere in B.C. you should be disinfecting your water.”

Through a permit with the Ministry of Environ-ment, the mine is autho-rized to discharge sew-age into a septic tank and then to the tailings stor-age facility and has been doing so for years.

In a statement, the company said it is confi-dent the results of one or two MPN per 100 ml are consistent with readings back as far as 2010.

“The bottom line is

that we are confident that elevated e-coli readings are not coming from the tailings breach, which is the reason that we discontinued sampling for that,” Imperial Met-als vice-president of corporate affairs Steve Robertson told the Tri-bune Saturday. He also said the company is not in a position to make a recommendation about

drinking the water as it relates to E. coli counts and strongly recom-mended residents discuss the matter with Interior Health.

“The sewage volume was small in comparison to the tailings volume,” he added.

On Monday, Mount Polley Mining Corpora-tion responded to numer-ous inquiries about sew-

age disposal at the mine site and the potential for bacterial contamination by posting a FAQ sheet on its website.

Britles said E. coli is an indicator measure as-sociated with fecal mat-ter from warm blooded mammals and birds. It is used because it’s quite simple and easy to test for.

Water is tested for E. coli and total coliforms for two reasons which are to ensure drinking water treatment is work-ing and for recreational water guidelines such as at beaches where people are swimming.

Robertson confirmed the company continues to monitor water qual-ity in Quesnel Lake for substances related to the breach, such as turbidity and metals.

Meanwhile, Highlands Irrigation Ltd.’s owner manager Dick Ford said his company has been installing filtration units for residents, a move that came after MPMC agreed to cover the costs.

The filter goes in the water system after the pump and before the utilities of the home. It’s pretty straight forward, he explained.

“We installed 10 so far, have one significant order in and will have an-other one following and of course we’re installing them as fast as we can get through the work.”

The Ministry of Envi-ronment did not respond to the Tribune’s request for information about permits for sewage in tailings storage facilities by press time.

SUNDAY, SEPT 21st Likely residents question mine on sewage concerns

Monica Lamb-Yorski photoThe view from the dock at Likely looking toward Quesnel Lake.

The youngest person to declare her intent to run for Williams Lake city council said most people of her generation feel they cannot make a difference.

“During my cam-paign I will be letting my peers know that it’s at the municipal level you actually can have an impact,” 23-year-old Bobbie-Jo Macnair told the Tribune Monday as she declared her in-tention to run. “It’s so important that young people get out there and

vote.”She is also commit-

ted to reaching out to young families around the province to share the information on the many good reasons to live in Williams Lake.

For the last two years Macnair has been work-ing at a local social ser-

vice agency, focusing on working with youth to improve their lives.

Through work she’s realized there’s a need for strong leadership when it comes to serving youth, she said.

“I am out in the com-munity a lot.”

Macnair grew up in Williams Lake, gradu-ated from Columneetza secondary school and attended Thompson Rivers University Wil-liams Lake campus where she studied politi-cal science and Canadi-an politics.

And while she doesn’t have any political ex-

perience she has heard many people want more transparency from city hall.

“A lot of people are unhappy with the way things are going and I think as a citizen and a taxpayer we should be able to know what’s go-ing on.”

Through the last few months she has attend-ed city council meet-ings regularly to see first hand how they work. As a young girl and teen she figure skated and has been active with the Williams Lake Studio Theatre, acting in local productions.

Hospital centennial well attended

Get ready for Canada Winter Games

Good turn out at the Alexis Creek Hospital centennial reunion on Saturday. Some of us were sur-

prised to realize we are now the “old folks.’’ I was a patient in the hospital twice. Once

for a week for the birth of Son #4, (the nurse, Kathleen Telford, known to my children as

Nurse Granny, didn’t believe in sending mothers home asap). Some time later, again with Mrs. T, I had some kind of flu/infection with a

high temperature and she nursed me through that.

She also saw Son#2 through a tick bite (of-ten fatal in those days).

A goodly number of people were born in the hospital. My sister-in-law Mary Knoll may hold a record, though. She was born there, later worked there, and her first child was born there.

I hadn’t been out to the Chilcotin for a while but it is just as big and beautiful as it was when I first saw it in September 1951.

***Two things have been bugging me late-

ly. One is the wide variation in reports on the Mount Polley Mine tailings pond breach. Deciding who to believe was re-solved last Friday when the Freshwater Al-liance and the Council of Canadians hosted an hour-long program on YouTube. Speak-ers Jacinda Mack from Xat’sull First Na-tion, Amy Cook from Fair Mining BC, and Ramsey Hart from Mining Watch Canada had the latest information. It is well worth watching: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nff6DZ0VZAg&feature=youtu.be

Thing # 2 is the number of teacher-scoffers who claim class size can’t be a problem be-cause there were 30 kids in a class when they went to school and everyone did OK.

Well, I attended a school once with 48 kids in grades one to eight (it was known as the worst school on the B.C. coast) and I turned out OK, too. I even taught some large classes BUT anyone who does some homework will learn it’s a very, VERY different world today, and classrooms reflect that.

Winter is still a few months away, but the anticipation and excitement of the upcoming

2015 Canada Winter Games is growing every day.

We are now less than 150 days until the north is illuminated with hundreds of athletes and thousands of spectators

coming to Prince George to experi-ence what Prince George and Northern B.C. has to offer.

Williams Lake, while not compet-

ing for gold in any of the sporting events, is also in competition in the Canada Winter Games. Quesnel and Williams Lake were chosen to be host cities for the Torch Re-lay Celebration Challenge representing the Cariboo region.

While voting has just closed, I know many of us in Williams Lake never bow down to a friendly challenge with our friends in Quesnel. We will just have to wait until Sept. 24, but hopefully the votes were in our favour.

But in all seriousness, the Canada Win-ter Games has united First Nations host-ing competitions on traditional territory, communities throughout Northern B.C. and the entire province.

This competition will allow us to show-case our beautiful scenery, hospitable peo-ple and the bright future that our region has for many decades to come.

If you are interested in attending the winter games, tickets and passes are on sale now. This is one of the largest amateur winter sport competitions being held this year, with many alumni becoming profes-sional athletes or competing on the world stage as future Olympians.

In rural and smaller towns across Can-ada, junior and amateur sport is a part of the community. There is no better place to host the Canada Winter Games than Prince George.

I wish the organizers, athletes and volun-teers the best of luck between now and the start of competition as they prepare to put on a great show for all of us.

Canada joins fight against ISIS

It’s been 11 years since the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the U.S. and here we find our-selves once again as Canadians being asked to support a war in Iraq.

The latest threat facing the Free World comes in the form of another radical Islamic group called ISIS or ISIL (the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria or the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant).

Like other radical groups in the Middle East before it, ISIS hides behind its religion as an excuse to kill others.

But unlike many other groups, ISIS has shown a level of shocking savagery we just don’t witness every day.

Whether we liked it or not, Canadians were introduced to the group last month when ISIS beheaded American journalist James Foley and released the gruesome vid-eo over the Internet with a message warning Americans to halt airstrikes in Iraq.

A month later ISIS sent another chilling message with the murder and video release of a second American journalist, Steven Sotloff.

And just as President Obama started can-vassing for allies in the growing fight against ISIS, the militant group terrorized potential supporters of the U.S. with the killing of

British aid worker David Haines.ISIS shows no bounds. If this group can

ruthlessly kill innocent journalists and aid workers, it will stop at nothing to get what it wants.

As Canadians, we are obliged to help the U.S. when asked. As a free society we sim-ply have no choice but to act against such human atrocities taking place in Syria and Iraq.

It is said ISIS is making $3 million per day in the sale of oil. You can be sure that money will go a long ways in strengthening the group’s numbers and global power, even allowing it to buy and sell hostages captured around the world.

Leaders from 30 countries around the world met in France this week and said they will join the alliance to overtake ISIS, Can-ada included.

As French President François Hollande said earlier this week, ISIS is a global threat that requires a global response.

As we saw a weeks ago when former Ka-mloops TRU students were identified as ISIS fighters, no country nor community will be immune from this latest war.

Question of the weekSeriousness of mine breach questioned

Editor:

I went to my first Imperial Metals Mount Polley Mine meeting.

They gave an informative talk on what has been done, is being done and what will be done later to clean up and fix the damages caused by the dam breaking.

Thanks to Mr. Gainer for say-ing what he did about Mount Polley mine. His speech was the only one that made sense.

An environmentalist and fisheries person asked the same questions over and didn’t seem to understand the answers giv-en.

One wanted to know what’s going to be done to compensate local residents about their wa-ter and health from stress.

They were told there is free water available for them and fil-ter systems would be installed for people taking water from

Quesnel Lake or River.Thirty years ago I was watch-

ing the salmon run in the Horse-fly River and asked a fisheries guy if the salmon that came up with parts missing on them, which I hadn’t seen before then, was caused by the pollution in the Fraser River.

He said he couldn’t say and walked away.

That told me I was right, so don’t blame the mine runoff for polluting the Fraser or fish.

We aren’t allowed to eat tuna from the ocean more than one or two times a week because of the ocean pollution.

People have a short memory of what Williams Lake and area was like when Gibraltar Mine and Mount Polley Mine weren’t in operation.

Likely was almost a ghost town and there was no employ-ment. People were leaving this province to go to Alberta for work.

The mine disaster wasn’t an environmental catastrophe.

It never ruined homes or took lives. It could have been a lot worse.

The salmon will keep spawn-ing and Hazeltine Creek will be better than it was before.

Quesnel Lake will still be the same as it always has been, the logs are being cleaned up, the beaches, too.

Things can’t be done over-night but they will get it done. People should think positive not negative about Mount Pol-ley Mine and what good it has done for people.

People should back them up and let them get done, and in operation to employ people again.

People living in Likely aren’t the only ones under stress, a lot of unemployed people are too.

Internet in Williams Lake for 20 years cause for celebration

Editor:

In September 1994, I re-ceived a phone call from a Rodni Binder from Kamloops asking me if I was interested in bringing the Internet to Wil-liams Lake. Of course my first question was what is the Inter-net?

He proceeded to explain and I was definitely intrigued.

I got set up with an account out of Kamloops through dial up and started using the Inter-net with amazement.

Back then, the Internet was text only in black and white but was promising to be much more. In the month of Octo-ber, I received my phone bill from BC Tel and it totalled more than $800 due to all the

long distance.By November, I put my order

into BC Tel for a five megabit fibre line.

In the first week of January 1995, Rodni Binder and I set up a show and tell at the Over-lander Hotel on the subject of the Internet and connectivity through dial up and it took Williams Lake by storm.

By March of 1995 the In-ternet connectivity was in and I started to sign customers up to my local dial up for April 1, 1995.

Many changes have come and gone with regards to how the Internet was being used go-ing from black and white text to what you find now such as video conferencing with friends and family, using Skype

to watching weekly television series and much, much more.

Is the Internet good or bad? As with everything, you can

find both good and bad, but you do have considerably more access to worldly knowledge and it is your choice which way to use it.

I introduced the Internet to Williams Lake and I feel re-sponsible for doing so.

I hope that the future will direct the Internet towards a great and useful direction instead of leading everyone down a darker path.

This is Nick Sardy at the Computer Access Centre log-ging off.

Polley mine restart criticalEditor:

As the stories swirl around the devastating failure of the Polley Mine tailings pond, there is a lingering and equally concern-ing issue facing our communi-ties and particularly employees and their families.

The unknown is both stressful and devastating to these work-ers as they wait not knowing if today is their last day of work.

Many of these mine employ-ees have relocated to the Cari-boo with their families because of the lifestyle the Cariboo of-fers.

It would be a major calam-ity for these employees to have

to make the decision to relocate again and leave their dreams be-hind.

Mount Polley has submitted a plan for restart of the mining operations and it’s up to govern-ment to allow the re-start while securing of the tailings pond continues while dealing with the effects of the spill itself.

Mine employees, contractors and suppliers and our communi-ties would be better served if the mine re-starts and in doing so prevents an even worse econom-ic impact, which will compound the problems we face today.

CENTRAL CARIBOO POOL RENOVATION & UPGRADE

ASSENT VOTINGOn Saturday, November 15, 2014, qualified electors within the Central Cariboo Recreation and Leisure Services Area will be voting on the following question:

Are you in favour of the Cariboo Regional District adopting Bylaws 4906 and 4907, which will authorize the borrowing of up to $10 million over 20 years and increase the Central Cariboo Recreation and Leisure Services annual taxation limit to a maximum of the greater of $3,500,000 or $1.98/$1,000 of assessed value of land and improvements, to provide for the upgrade and renovation of the pool and amenities at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex?

(Based on 2014 assessed values, the estimated annual cost to undertake this borrowing and operate the upgraded pool translates to a residential tax rate increase of approximately $40/$100,000. The new taxation limit for recreation services of $3,500,000 translates to a residential tax rate of $148/$100,000 of the net taxable assessed value of land and improvements.)

Scrutineers for and against the question must be appointed if applications are received from persons who wish to volunteer for the positions. Only persons entitled to vote as electors on the question shown above are entitled to act as scrutineers. If sufficient applications are received, one scrutineer for and one scrutineer against the question will be appointed for each voting place. One scrutineer for the question and one scrutineer against the question will also be appointed to be present at the determination of the official results and, if necessary, at a judicial recount.

“When Pets need a Helping Hand”

MY BEST FRIEND

‘Spice’ Hunter “Life is good when you can pee!”

F.U.S. (Feline Urological Syndrome) is a complex urinary tract disorder in cats. Male or female cats may be affected but it is an EMERGENCY in males if they obstruct and can’t pee. Talk to your veterinarian about prevention (diet and fresh water are critical!!) and call if your kitty is straining or cries when trying to urinate.

Teachers’ dispute needs to endEditor:

As a B.C. resident, I have been involved with schools and education in a variety of ways. I was a longtime parent vol-unteer and then a public health nurse, a healthy schools co-ordinator and a nursing supports ser-vices co-ordinator (for special needs children) in my region.

During that time, I ob-served the dedication and compassion with which teachers interacted with their students. I know that

the majority of teachers work long hours, and that often the resources used are bought by the teach-ers themselves because the resource budget given to them is not adequate for the student needs.

I was involved with the transition of special needs students into the classroom. While I be-lieve totally in the con-cept of inclusion for all children, the way it is being implemented to-day often does not meet the needs. The concept of inclusion means that

every child is included and supported within the education system so that every child has an equal opportunity to develop physically, emotionally and academically to the extent of his/her abilities. While students with the designation of autism or down syndrome may have adequate teacher aide support, the children with undiagnosed medi-cal conditions or those children with behavioural problems increase the work load for the teach-ers but usually do not

receive teacher’s aide sup-port for their conditions. When teachers receive inadequate support, it means that all children in the classroom can be negatively impacted too. This is the reason why class size and composi-tion in the classroom is so important. In my opin-ion, the standoff between the British Columbia government and the B.C. Teacher’s Federation in terms of bargaining in good faith is a travesty.

I am totally disgusted by this turn of events, and

lobby both the B.C. gov-ernment and the BCTF to end this quickly. I would also like to encour-age every parent and in-terested person to lobby the involved parties to work together efficiently and comprehensively to reach a collaborative settlement of this issue. In addition to that send a letter or e-mail to your MLA indicating your displeasure with this situ-ation.

Careless disregard for environment in opinion pieceEditor:

I am neither against mining, nor an envi-ronmentalist, but find Donald Leung’s Aug. 20 letter to the editor sim-plistic and uninformed at best.

First, there were not a few thousand litres of water spilt. There were allegedly 10 mil-lion cubic metres (that’s 10 billion litres) and an-other four billion litres of slurry that flowed downstream.

Second, if the sludge in the tailing ponds

of mines were safe for the environment, there would be little reason to have regulations in place to curtail and contain such. Of course the min-erals and metals in the sludge occur in nature, but not in the same den-sity and composition as in a tailings pond.

However, what really struck me about Mr. Leung’s opinion piece was his statement “In a year natural vegetation re-growth will render the incident almost un-detectable.” What was wiped out by the mass

of water and slurry was not a bamboo field.

If he believes that the trees, many of them of mature growth, will grow back in a year, I would encourage Mr. Leung to visit the affect-ed area next year so he can see for himself that the trees may not grow back within his lifetime.

Coupled with his statement “it’s not unlike any other naturally oc-curring mud slide,” Mr. Leung not only shows disrespect to the resi-dents of the affected ar-eas but invariably leads

one to question what his real motives are. Many similar letters from Mr. Leung have appeared in various publications, all the way to Quebec. Fur-thermore, he has written a number of letters ad-vocating strong support for the mining industry, in one article even go-ing as far as to suggest pouring government money into mining in-stead of training more teachers (Royal City Re-cord May 20).

In yet another letter, published March 11 in the “Province,” in his

reaction to “New Pros-perity” being denied an operating permit, Mr. Leung states: “Every possible environmental precaution is in place. There is no reason on earth to say no to it.” Oh, really?

Mr. Leung’s inces-sant effort to promote mining, with complete disregard for the envi-ronment, evokes the question as to which special interest group is he associated with?

Williams Lake

Sixty years, close your eyes and imagine that, 60 years.

That line from the play Over the River and Through the Woods writ-ten by Joe DiPietro comes to mind as the Williams Lake Studio The-atre launches its 60th Anniversary season.

Sixty years ago, Gwen Pharis Ringwood founded the group shortly after she and her family moved to Williams Lake (her hus-band Barney established a medical practice here).

She was already an award-winning playwright and commu-nity theatre activist and she was the driving force in bringing to the stage the Williams Lake Play-ers Club’s first production, Dark Brown/Orange Blossoms. The WL Players Club rehearsed and per-formed where they could.

Many plays have since crossed the stage, which is now at the Glen-dale location, where the club has been for 26 years thanks to School District 27. The theatre has seen many changes over its 60 years, but the one constant has been the pas-

sion and commitment of the vol-unteers who serve.

The WL Studio Theatre’s 60th season line up starts out with The 39 Steps by Patrick Barlow, di-rected by Curt Sprickerhoff. The Studio Theatre teamed up with The Point Restaurant to bring an awesome night of dinner theatre to patrons.

The rip-roaring whodunnit of spies, murder, death defying es-capes, midnight chases, a dizzying

love affair, evil villains, and a race against time to save the world is an Alfred Hitchcock meets Monty Python theatrical explosion.

The play runs Nov. 12-15 and Nov. 19-22. The Studio Theatre’s 60th Gala evening is the final night, Nov. 22. Tickets will be on sale mid-September.

Next is Die Theatrically by Mat Kelly. Director Mark Berezan pres-ents this farce in which detectives Jane and Tom investigate a murder at a community theatre’s all female production of Macbeth the Musi-cal. But is it murder? Or a double murder? Or a murder-suicide? The play runs Jan. 14-17 and Jan. 21-24, 2015.

Then Still Stands the House and Garage Sale continues our 60th season celebration by put-ting on two plays written by Studio Theatre’s founder Gwen Pharis Ringwood. They are directed by Cathie Hamm and Sylvia Swift. Still Stands the House was one of Gwen’s early plays and is a tense story about a family coming apart. Garage Sale is a later play that is a gentle story about an older couple finding themselves. These plays run March 11-14 and March 18-

21, 2015. Lastly, in May, the Studio The-

atre will present Proof by David Auburn, directed by Sheryl-Lynn Lewis. In this play Catherine doubts her sanity and negotiates with a young math prof who is overly zealous about her father’s work. She is also expecting the ar-rival of her busy-body older sister. Proof explores the unknowability of love and the mystery of genius. The play runs May 6-9 and May 13-16, 2015.

Besides the four plays presented through the year, the theatre sea-son has many difference facets. The first phase of any new season is pitch night, which usually takes place in February. This is where di-rectors can bring forth a play they would like to see put on during the next season. The director must have a producer, a stage manager and budget all in place before they can pitch.

The pitch committee reads all the plays then has the potential directors come back a month later for a question and answer period.

Studio Theatre AGM coming up Sept. 26

They then select four plays for the next sea-son.

The next step in the season is auditions, which are held four times a year through Studio Theatre’s regu-lar season. Usually they are held three months before the opening of a play.

The word audition

may intimidate some people as it means hav-ing to be up on stage, but that is not the only thing it is about.

It takes a lot of peo-ple to help out with ev-ery aspect of a play, like lights and set design, to ensure that a play is suc-cessful.

If you are interested in getting your feet wet and lending a hand or learning a new job, come out to an audi-

tion. E-mail the theatre and let them know you are interested and they will e-mail you the au-dition dates as they be-come available.

The next part of Stu-dio Theatre’s year is the Annual General Meet-ing (AGM) which usu-ally take place in late September or early Oc-tober.

As this is theatre, the executive tries to make their AGM fun.

They do the busi-ness part first, visit over some appetizers, and then provide some en-tertainment.

This year’s AGM is Sept. 26 at 6:30 p.m.

The AGM is always a great way to see the the-atre, meet many of the volunteers and be enter-

tained. This year’s en-tertainment is five to 10 minute readings from each of the upcoming season’s plays men-tioned above. For more information please email the Studio The-atre ([email protected]) or call Mary-Jo at (250)305-4801.

The finale of the sea-son happens with Festi-val, a judged competi-tion that takes place in May every year.

Theatre BC consists of 10 zones, each zone consists of four or five Theatre groups. Studio Theatre is in the Central Interior Zone.

This past season Wil-liams Lake Studio The-atre hosted the 2014 Zone Festival. Next year, 2015, the festival is

in Prince George. Festi-val is open to the public and is a great way to see many different plays put on by different the-atre groups. The winner of Festival goes onto MainStage, the Theatre BC competition, held in Kamloops the first week of July.

Theatre is fun, en-tertaining, challenging and a great way to get involved in the commu-nity.

Please help Studio Theatre celebrate their 60th season, either by helping out with a play, coming out to watch a performance, or sup-porting them finan-cially, and help keep live theatre in Williams Lake for another 60 years.

The lakecity’s new United Way regional representative Melinda Mitchell was thorough-ly impressed this sum-mer with the work ethic shown by the Storm U17 Girls rep soccer team.

Without any expecta-tions of reward, Mitchell says the team members literally re-landscaped a section of the Boys and Girls Club front lot. She says they removed all of the stones and rocks and weeds from the area, laid down landscape fabric and then put back the cleaned stones and rock.

They had help from Matt Neufeld and Step-pit Hendrickson as well as her husband Greg, but said she couldn’t be-lieve how hard the girls worked.

“They were excited to do something for the kids,” Mitchell says.

She notes people can help the United Way to help communities through their donations of cash but also through in-kind contributions such as the work the Storm team did for the Boys and Girls Club on the United Way’s Day of Caring in August.

Mitchell, who is well-known in the commu-nity for her many years working in the bakery at Save-On-Foods in Wil-liams Lake, took over as the Cariboo repre-sentative for the United Way Thompson Nicola Cariboo branch in June from Melissa Newberry.

Newberry left the position to take over as executive director of

Big Brothers and Sisters from Lorraine Levitt who has moved to Ka-mloops with her teacher husband, Mike, to be closer to their children.

United Way is a na-tional movement con-sisting of a national of-fice in Ottawa and more than 100 local United Ways serving communi-ties across Canada.

The United Way’s mission is to improve

lives and build commu-nity by engaging indi-viduals and mobilizing collective action.

Mitchell says that in mid-life, with her chil-dren grown, she was looking for a change her years of working and living in Williams Lake have helped to prepare her for her new role in meeting the goals of the United Way in building stronger communities.

The United Way mis-sion statement points out that the organiza-tion is not just about fundraising.

“We are a beacon for social change,” the state-ment says.

“We don’t just scratch the surface of social is-sues by using band-aid solutions. We inspire people to come together to make a lasting differ-ence in our communi-ties. We dig deeper to identify the underlying root causes of social issues and we work to-gether with community partners to generate long-term, sustainable solutions that positively impact the health and well-being, education and financial stability of all members of our communities.

“We specialize in bringing together all sectors of a community including individuals, businesses, organiza-tions and government in pursuit of a common goal — to create oppor-tunities for people to live

better lives. We monitor and measure the im-pact of both short and

long-term solutions to ensure they are affecting social change that leads

to stronger families and more vibrant neigh-bourhoods.”

Sabercats to play home opener SaturdayThe Williams Lake

Sabercats minor foot-ball team squared off against the Quesnel Bombers at Quesnel Saturday in week two of the Prince George Mi-nor Football League.

Sabercats head coach Dionte Jelks said the Bombers, in a tightly contested battle, struck first to go up 8-0 after stalling the Sabercats on downs.

The first-year Saber-cats, not to be outdone, struck back at the be-ginning of the second quarter when Noe Jelks darted around the left side to outrun the Bombers for a 50-yard

score. Quarterback Liam Gilroy scored on the conversion to bring the Sabercats to within a point.

The Bombers then received the kick-off to rumble 20 yards before being stalled by the Sa-bercats stout defence led by middle linebacker Julia Bowman and de-fensive end Ian Fos-ter, along with Aiden Oliveira and Geordi Wonnacott.

Cole Armond then exploded around the right side to put Wil-liams Lake up 13-8.

On the following pos-session the defence again stopped the Bombers on

a drive, who turned the ball over at the 45-yard line.

Noe received the hand-off and was stuffed for no gain. On second down Cole Armond lost yardage to put the Sabercats at third down and 12 yards.

“Noe received the handoff to the left side but the Bombers de-fence was waiting,” Di-onte said. “Noe reversed the entire field weaving his way through traffic and finally out running a host of Bombers for a 65-yard touchdown.

“I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. It’s incredible for a person to be so young to be able

to have vision and see the entire field.”

Noe finished the game with 121 yards and two touchdowns on seven carries.

The Sabercats then went up 19-8 at the half.

“The third quarter resulted in [us] losing two possessions due to botched kick-offs,” Di-onte said.

“We worked on kick-offs during practice hoping that our young players would be able to effectively cover the kicks.”

The Bombers took advantage to go up 19-16.

“The Bombers kicked off and the ball rico-cheted off the hands of

a Sabercat causing the Bombers to go down the field to score the go-ahead touchdown for the 24-19 win,” Dionte said.

“We will work this week to limit our fum-bles on kick-off and senseless penalties. It’s all part of the game. Growing pains.”

He added he was ex-tremely proud of his players and the effort they gave.

“I must say we have some tough seven and eight year olds,” he said. “Many first-year pro-grams get steamrolled their first season but we have competed and played tough in every game coming so close to victory.”

The Sabercats will play their home opener this Saturday, Sept. 20 against Prince George starting at noon at the Ottoman Drive rugby pitch. The following Sat-urday the Sabercats will get a chance for revenge against the Bombers, also in Williams Lake.

The Williams Lake Chess Club is hosting the first-ever Lakecity Chess Open.

“We have it all,” said Scott Richardson, one of the tournament’s or-ganizers. “A great play-ing room, a bit of cash and product prizes.”

Scott is local chess sensation Kai Richard-son’s dad. Kai played in last year’s World Youth Chess Championships. “Kai’s homeschooling program, SelfDesign, has donated five deluxe tournament chess sets for prizes for students and 10 coaching boards and sets to Kai so that he can teach and give simuls [simultaneous ex-hibitions].

“We just need people to come and play.”

Scott said he hopes to get around 20 to 30 peo-ple participating in the tournament, which is scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 18 at the Williams Lake Library.

“This will be the first chess tournament for the lakecity,” he said. “It could be the only chess tournament in the Inte-rior of B.C.”

He added the tourna-ment is for all levels and all ages.

“If you enjoy play-ing chess and it’s been a while or if you just know how the pieces move and want some experience we have a section for you [called] the casual section,” he said. “For those more advanced, the open sec-tion.”

Refreshments and snacks will be provided during the tournament by Safeway and prizes include sport bike equip-ment from Red Shred’s and Barking Spider, plus gift certificates from the Gecko Tree and the Open Book.

The tournament will be six rounds and a Wil-liams Lake club-rated tournament with a $250 cash prize and another $400 in prizes from sponsors.

First annual Lakecity Chess Open coming up

It’s the end of an era for Ken and Julie Berry and their many Christ-mas-loving fans in the lakecity.

After 27 years of working here, raising a family, and decorat-ing their Country Club Boulevard home to the nines every Christ-mas, the couple is leav-ing Williams Lake to be closer to family in Kelowna.

As a result, the Ber-rys are hosting a Christ-mas-inspired garage sale this weekend to rival all garage sales --

with all proceeds going to the Child Develop-ment Centre.

“We want to keep spreading that Christ-mas spirit so we hope that people will come with the spirit of giv-ing in mind,” Ken said of the thousands of Christmas lights and hockey team of pen-guins that will be up for sale by donation.

The couple has raised almost $25,000 for the local CDC through their Christmas display, which Ken started put-ting up every summer

right up until Christ-mas Day.

“My goal was $25,000 so it is playing out as I’d hoped.”

Ken said he’s thank-ful to his neighbours and the greater com-munity for the support and donations, and es-pecially to his wife Julie, who he said “put up with vacuuming only in the mornings” due to overloaded circuits.

“She bought into it,” he said.

For her part, Julie said she’s going to miss the extravagant Christ-mas show her husband put on every year and of course the commu-nity.

“That last day here is going to be tough, but we’re ready for our next adventure.”

The Berry’s CDC Christmas Spirit garage sale gets underway on Sunday, Sept. 21 at 9 a.m.

Customers are wel-come to make individu-al donations for which-ever items they like, including larger tickets items which can be used as a tax deduction if cheques are made pay-able to the CDC.

Safety Tip:Focus on the road, not your phone. Taking your eyes off the road to check that text signifi cantly reduces your reaction time–and can have deadly consequences. In fact, distracted driving is now the

second leading cause of car crash fatalities in B.C.

Question of the WeekDriveway introduces our new northern B.C. based writer Mike Zacharias today. He challenges the image of the truck being the northern choice by testing a Ford Fiesta. What would you like Mike to test in the Prince George area?

DrivewayCanada.ca | Welcome to the driver’s seat

City commuter handles the northern roadsSubcompact cars are set up to be basic transpor-tation with emphasis placed on low cost and great fuel economy. That said, you might think they are all a bit boring and not very fun to drive or even very interesting to look at. This is not the case on the 2014 Ford Fiesta: it has had a face-lift and features more standard options than in the last model year. Usually little sub-com-pacts like this come with more plastic than a TV sports reader. The Fiesta feels different. You do get some plastic to be sure but the dash has softer materials and some of the plastic around here actually looks and feels good. For the price ($19,990 as tested), driving the Fiesta feels a bit naughty, as if maybe you have stolen a more expensive car than you can actually afford. I would love to be able to afford an Aston Martin as my daily commuter car but at this point in my life that is not an option. With the redesign, you do get the Fusion / Aston front-end styling. Now some people might say, “Well it looks too much like an Aston.” Really? That’s like someone telling a girlfriend that she looks too much like Scarlett Johansson; you’re not really going to complain, are you?

Don’t get me wrong, I am not saying it drives or feels like an Aston but it is great fun to drive, handles our roads very well and all the tech options needed to keep your eyes on the road are available. The SE model I drove came with Bluetooth, satellite radio, navigation, power locks, windows, and the My Ford Sync.I drove the Fiesta around Prince George and practicality wise it didn’t skip a beat. As I live downtown, anywhere I go in my daily life I am always driving right through the heart of the city. When I headed out

to the hockey rink, I was able to put all of my goalie equipment into the back, no problem. Parking in cities is increas-ingly becoming a premium. Parking a sub-compact like the Fiesta was a breeze even without a backup camera! As some people with larger vehicles will know, parking at places like malls in and around the city the spaces are tight with not a lot of movement space for bigger vehicles. In addition, of course, it does get worse in wintertime when the snow is piled high. With that in mind, how will it handle our winter roads?The Fiesta has good ground clearance for a smaller car and handling our

winter roads should not be a problem. Of course, you would want to invest in a good set of winter tires.Beyond the city limits, out on the highway, heading south it handled the road well, with enough get up and go for good passing power when needed.It’s quite roomy for a small car. There’s room for three in the back seat as long as those passengers are not of a larger body type, if I may delicately put it that way. If you are of a larger body type, there is plenty of room in the trunk, if you desperately need a ride at that exact moment. (Just kidding.) But it does tell you the trunk is also roomy! Verdict: No complaints. For a sub-com-pact, you get great tech options, great fuel economy, in a car that doesn’t feel like you are driving something as inexpensive as it is. It’s fun and zippy for driving around town or highway driving. If you need a small car as a

daily commuter or it’s your second car to accommodate a bigger SUV or truck, I would recommend taking one out for a test drive to see if it fits for you in what you are looking for in a car. The Fiesta right now for me is tops in the subcompact class.View our Ford Fiesta video review online at DrivewayCanada.ca

WILLIAMS LAKE


By Alexandra Straub

Monterrey, CA. – Looking at the specs, it doesn’t seem too impressive.A 1.6-litre engine, 116 horse-power, 100 lb-ft of torque, a 0-100 km/h time of less than nine seconds, 14-inch tires. Heck, my bicycle has bigger rubbers! Okay, maybe not. But 25 years ago, the Mazda Miata was a product of those numbers. It wasn’t necessar-ily endowed in the engine department.However, the two-door road-ster did have everything else on its side. A sleek design, a

peppy personality, a brilliant red coat and something that

other cars have strived to achieve in their two-door roadsters over the years but have fallen short – longevity.At a quarter century old, the Miata/MX-5 has achieved incredible success. Close to a million of these drop tops have been sold worldwide. The Miata/MX5 holds a Guinness Book of World Records title of as most successful two-seat convertible roadster in history. Not bad for a car that packs in so many thrills for under $30K.Over the years, the front-en-gine, rear-wheel drive car continued to encourage the masses to drive topless. Whether through a rag or hardtop, this specimen of automotive manufacturing and design allowed people to feel the proverbial wind in their hair within seconds.I felt it as a kid as my mom was lucky enough to be one of the first Miata owners in

BC when they came out in 1989 – a red one, of course – and took me out for rides frequently.Those memories have stayed with me over the decades, though I’ve been able to form my own bond with the car.Not only have we (meaning, the various MX-5s I’ve driven in the last in 11 years) put down thousands of kilome-tres together, we’ve also been paired up at the Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca for the Skip Barber Racing School experience a couple of times.Nostalgia is one popular element of its appeal, but there’s an undeniable fun factor. Whether racing it on a track or just taking it to the grocery store, the first turn you carve in it will rope you in like an infomercial in the wee hours of the night when you can’t sleep.

By Zack Spencer

Differing definitions of luxury in the automotive market are truly reflected in the eyes of the beholder. To one person it might be having all the refinements and gadgets available in a modern car accompanied with a smooth and quiet ride. To another buyer it might just be about the name on the front of the car, letting all to see it that the owner has “made it” establishing a certain status in society. For many it’s a combination of both. Enter the new Kia K900 luxury sedan from Kia. It has all the refinement and features found in cars with a longer pedigree in the luxury space but this car offers it at a discount. Then the name on the car comes into play. Is the Kia K900 a car anyone aspires to own? Well, after a weeklong trip

with my family I’m more impressed with Kia than I have been before but the realist in me knows Kia isn’t a luxury brand, at least not yet.

LooksThe K900 is an unfortunate name, it begs the question is this a dog? No, it is a full-size car about the same size as a 7-series from BMW or S-Class from Mercedes Benz. The K900 is based on the same platform as the Hyundai Equus but differs in price and content. For a full-sized car with limo-like dimensions, the K900 starts at a remarkable $49,995 for the V6 model and $60,995 for the V6 premium model. The top V8 model is $69,995. The styling is strong, especially the top V8 model seen here with LED headlamps and taillights and very North American looking chrome multi-spoke wheels. The rear doors are

huge and Kia has done but good job of keeping the proportions of the car in check while grafting Kia’s signature Tiger Nose grille. The rear bumper and lower air diffuser looks especially chunky, almost mimicking the Lexus LS and its inte-grated exhaust tips.

InsideEvery person that sat in the K900 was blown away with the refinement, fit and finish and especially the materials used. The

V8 test model had leather covering the front of the dash and piano finish on the wood trim accented. Add in tasteful chrome and aluminum, dark, rich wood on the steering wheel and centre console and the K900 looks like a million bucks. The front and rear seats came with ventilation and V8 models have a rear seat reclining feature. Despite spending countless hours behind the wheel travelling with two children in the back, the car offered

a very relaxing ride for the passengers, and the kids especially liked the cooled seats on a very hot day. The centre infotainment screen is controlled with a rotary dial in-between the front passengers and is very simi-lar to Audi’s MMI system.

DriveThe V6 model comes with the very competent 3.8L engine that puts out 311hp. having tried this in other Hyundai/Kia products and it is smooth and powerful. The

V8 is superb, with 420hp coming from a 5.0L V8, there is no lack of power. The shift in the auto indus-try is to smaller engines that utilize turbo charging but Kia is sticking with good old engine displacement to get the job done. Covering more than 1,000km, the real world fuel economy was 12L/100km on the highway. To say that the K900 is smooth and quite is an understatement, I would put this car up against the new S-Class from Mercedes and a blindfolded passenger would have a hard time distinguishing the differ-ence. What does become apparent is the K900’s lack of steering feedback to the driver and cornering ability. On Highway 3 from Hope towards Penticton the K900 wallowed in the switchback corners, it really didn’t like it at all. Driving back on the Coquihalla was a different story; the K900 shines in open road cruising, making it a wonderful long road trip companion.

VerdictThe K900 is Kia’s very first pure luxury car and they got a lot right. The interior is as good as anyone in the marketplace and Kia does it at a substantial discount to

the competition and power isn’t a problem especially with the big V8 available. But there were a few problems. The automatic lock and unlock feature on the outside doors only unlocked. This is probably a quick fix but an issue and the Bluetooth audio didn’t work either. Another stum-bling block is the lack of all wheel drive (AWD). In this segment almost all vehicles sold come with AWD, in fact most companies only offer it. The market for this car is a happy existing Kia owner wanting to upgrade to something more and that is where the V6 model comes into play. Kia might not sell many of these cars but they have it for sale to show anyone that is interested that they can make a true luxury car, maybe not in name but in features and refinement.

But in the case of the MX-5, you won’t have any buyer’s remorse.Fast-forward through the years and you’re now view-ing the fourth generation MX-5.And what better way to welcome the roadster to the stage here in California than via a little band called Duran Duran. And through a live satellite stream that was broadcast here, and abroad in Spain and Japan.The reasoning? – Both the English music group and the roadster came into popular-ity in the 80s and continued

to succeed and grow in status over the decades. Be-sides, “Rio” is an incredibly catchy tune to dance to!That said the MX-5 has a new, eye-catching look to it. Not many specs have been released though I can tell you this: it’s lower, wider, and sheds 100kg in the making.It also embodies the KODO or “Soul of Motion” design language.This two-seater also comes with sexy character lines from its four corners. Furthermore, up front, you’ll notice its headlights that look like they’re eyeing its prey; unlike the first

generation’s pop up/down headlights that were more than welcoming.Like with all-new models of anything legendary, there will be a polarizing recep-tion. Some might think it’s too radical. Some might fall immediately in love with it. And some will wait to drive it to make up their mind.Regardless of the way it looks – which certainly helps its cause – it’s really about how you feel on the road, behind the wheel, and when you tuck it in at night. More details about the MX-5 are scheduled to be released at this year’s Paris Auto Show.Either way, I can’t wait to

drive it.www.mazda.ca

MARIE SHARPE SCHOOL GYM

A Step Ahead

A new art show, Coastal Perspectives, at the Station House explores the theme of water through the cre-ativity of Bella Coola Valley artists Theresa Bagshaw, Kathleen Booth and Ernest Hall.

“There are fish, bears, otters, the rain-forest and lots of wa-ter,” Hall said during the opening reception. “I think every piece in-volves water.”

Hall incorporates tra-ditional native designs in some of his pieces and said he does it be-cause First Nations are part of the landscape.

“We’re the refugees,” he suggested.

“All of the non-na-tive people have come to the valley to escape something, but the Nuxalk have been here since creation. They are part of the landscape the way the bears and fish are.”

There is an argument that non-native incor-poration of native art is expropriation, how-ever, Hall argued artists

often “steal” from the Italians, Greeks, Ro-mans and French.

“Art is a universal ex-pression and to exclude the right to incorporate native art into my art is denying the artistic ex-perience.”

Pointing to a piece titled Sky to Sea — a clay vase featuring an descending eagle and a fishing salmon — Hall said he’s happy with the

piece.He first started in-

corporating aboriginal images about 20 years ago at a time when it was politically incorrect and admits he was self-conscious.

He’s not now.Lifting up a clay

platter with a native designed sockeye titled Sockeye Blues, he de-scribed it as whimsical and fun. There’s not

enough whimsy out there, he chuckled.

One of his pieces titled Bella Coola Just Getting By is more po-litical.

It features a tree root ripped out of the envi-ronment and the ends of it are ragged.

The wood is smooth and cultivated by the weather and elements, but it’s been torn out, he emphasized.

“There are two raku bears who are un-cus-tomarily walking away from the centre of the piece. Two raku salmon are also swimming away and leaving the scene.”

He said he didn’t have a little plastic ferry boat to place on the wood, but hoped the viewer gets his drift that folks in Bella Coola are barely surviving.

Booth, who moved to the valley from Win-nipeg in 2011, has creat-ed paintings sharing the vibrancy of the nature she sees around her.

Her paintings em-ploy a use of hues that is bold and bright.

Bagshaw, originally from Vancouver, has called the Bella Coola Valley home since 1993.

While she wasn’t at the show’s opening, her presence was felt through her paintings and clay, fitting her art-ist statement’s sugges-tion that “the natural environment nurtures her creative abilities and calls for diversity in her artistic expression.”

The show remains in the gallery for the rest of September.

The Cariboo Me-morial Recreation Complex has every-thing under one roof to meet your fitness goals all at one low membership price. All members are given un-limited access to the pool, fitness centre, drop-in aquafit and dryland programs and even public skating.

“A membership here gives you pretty much access to everything,” said Beth Holden, CMRC Marketing and Events Co-ordinator.

The CMRC features an incredible 11 op-tions for fitness classes including seven dry-land and four aquatic which run weekly or bi-weekly. Dryland classes include Gen-tle Fit, TRX, Toned TRX, Balance Agil-ity, Yogalates, Cardio Class and Boot Camp.

Aquafit classes inclde Lunch Fit, Afternoon Aquafit, Evening Aquafit, and Aqua Zumba.

“The Boot Camp and Aqua Zumba are brand new this year and the Toned TRX class was introduced last year,” said Hold-en.

Another new addi-tion is the Eating Hab-its Busting program. This is an enhanced membership that was recently introduced and has already seen many clients achieve success.

“This is a 12-step, 12-month program where people learn how to change their lifestyle by adjusting their diet and exercise program. There are three motivational lec-tures throughout the year and we provide

monthly tips and ad-vice by e-mail,” said Holden. “We have seen some phenom-enal results from many of the participants.”

There are a num-ber of testimonials of participants in the program that have re-ported drastically im-proved health through weight loss, as well as reducing blood sugar levels and medications.

The fitness centre has added new equip-ment including a new Espresso Interactive Upright Exercise Bike which includes a LCD Screen and can take riders on any of 30 virtual courses.

Monthly member-ships are available as well as their popular punch cards. Their 10 punch passes are ideal for those who can’t commit to the gym

full time. Their annual pre-Christmas sale of-fers punch cards at 25 per cent off from Dec. 10-24.

The CMRC will have a referendum on Nov. 15, the same day of the local mayoral election, on what the fate of the pool will be. Voters choose ei-ther option A, which is to build a new tank for the existing pool, or option B, to build a new second pool.

There are five Toonie Skates being offered with the first on Saturday, Sept. 26. That same day the pool will be offering its first of five Iceberg Fun Days.

FALL IS HERETime to get your vehicle

ready for winter!

Car emergency kits can be a life saver(NC) – No mat-

ter where you drive, you never know when something could go wrong. It could be a flat tire, getting stuck in traffic, an accident, a car break down, or sliding into a ditch on a less travelled road. This is why it is important to always be prepared and part of being pre-pared involves having an emergency kit.

Having an emergen-cy kit in your car can

be very helpful when you are in a bind. While some people overlook its importance because they rely on road side assistance, the reality is that you never know how long it will take for help to arrive.

“Even if you have road side assistance coverage you may have to wait a while for help to arrive, especially in poor weather con-ditions,” says Achiel Goossens, the senior

manager of auto claims with Aviva Canada. “An emergency kit can help make things more comfortable while you are waiting for help to arrive.”

While there is no limit to what items you can include in your emergency kit, there are a number of things that Goossens suggests you need. These items include:

• A cell phone (if you don’t carry one with

you);• A first aid kit;• Bottled water and

snacks;• A blanket, gloves,

and additional warm clothing for the winter months;

• Flashlight and bat-teries;

• Tire gauge and jumper cables;

• A small tool kit.This is a minimum.

Depending on your specific situation, you may include other

items based on your driving frequency and the climate where you drive.

Regardless of how often and where you drive, having an emer-gency kit is common sense. If you don’t have one already, invest-ing in one is not only important, it could be a lifesaver. More detailed information is available from your insurance broker or at AvivaCanada.com.

Fall Is Here... “Be Car Care Aware”

Battery care in extreme weatherFew things can be

more frustrating than jumping into the driv-

er’s seat on a frosty morning, turning the key in the ignition and

failing to hear the en-gine roar to life. Frig-id weather can cause trouble with a car’s battery. Some drivers do not understand why, but getting the facts can help people avoid having to deal with dead batteries on cold winter days.

Cold temperatures wreak havoc on batter-ies because they slow the chemical reaction inside of the battery. Batteries work by combining lead plates with lead dioxide and sulfuric acid to create electrons.

While batteries can function under myr-iad conditions, the cold weather tends to degrade high-quality batteries and may ren-der subpar batteries useless.

The cold weather can cause the fluid in

the battery to freeze and lose function. A battery that is frozen will not hold a charge, and, as a result, the car won’t start.

There are various ways to protect a bat-tery from failure in the cold, and some of them involve taking precautionary mea-sures even before the arrival of cold weath-er.

* Assess the age of your battery. If your battery is old, now may be the time to re-place it. Batteries dif-fer in how long they last, but many last anywhere from five to

10 years. If your car is still running on its original battery and your card is several years old, it may be a good idea to get a new battery before the ar-rival of winter. Battery size will not necessari-ly provide better start-ing. It’s important to buy the correct battery for the make of your car, which can usually be found inside of the owner’s manual.

* Verify that there is no corrosion. Cor-rosion can prevent a car from starting just as much as a worn-out battery. Corrosion is caused by a faulty

connection that allows battery acid to escape and corrode surround-ing areas. Regularly inspect the battery to keep abreast of issues that may cause corro-sion. Carefully clean away any corrosive res-idue that has formed and make sure the bat-tery is correctly seated.

* Install a battery blanket. A battery blanket is used to wrap around the battery and fit inside of the battery cover. A cord with a plug runs from the blanket to a wall outlet. The blanket can produce enough heat to keep the bat-

tery fluid from freez-ing. A trickle charger can also be mounted on the battery. It will deliver enough power to the battery while the car is off to keep it from freezing.

* Minimize the use of automotive acces-sories. Do not start the car with the heater and the radio on. They can use up the power com-ing from the car’s alter-nator and prevent the battery from charging. Do not leave the heat and the radio on while the car is idling. Oth-erwise the car will not be putting out enough power for the alter-nator to charge the battery and power the electrical systems.

* Disconnect the battery. If your car will be stored in a ga-rage for the winter, disconnect the battery. Certain devices, such as clocks and alarm systems, continue to drain battery power when the vehicle is off. If your car will not be driven enough to recharge the battery, keep it disconnected when the automobile is being stored.

Cold weather can sometimes wreak havoc on vehicles. Knowing how to skirt trouble with your car’s battery can keep your car on the road throughout the winter.

Drivers should replace old car batteries before the arrival of winter weather.

According to data from http://www.ca-nadianautoworld.ca, in 2012 the average new car cost $26,755. That’s a considerable expense, especially at a time when fuel costs remain high and cost of living continues to rise.

Because new cars have become so expen-sive, more and more vehicle owners are looking for ways to extend the life of their vehicles. The longer a car can stay on the road, the better an in-vestment that vehicle becomes. Fortunately, there are several steps vehicle owners can take that should en-sure their vehicles stay on the road for years to come.

* Scale back on short trips. The toll cold starts take on a vehicle can add up over time. When a car is started, condensa-tion builds up in the vehicle’s exhaust sys-tem. On longer trips, that condensation will gradually evaporate. However, on short trips, that condensa-tion often does not have enough time to evaporate, and over time too many short trips will lead to an accumulation of water in the muffler that can lead to rust and rust holes on the muffler. Short trips also can negatively affect gas mileage. When pos-sible, leave your car at home on trips into town when you can just as easily walk or ride a bicycle. Over time, reducing the amount of short trips you take in your car will greatly reduce wear and tear on your vehicle and improve your fuel efficiency as well.

* Stick to the manu-facturer’s recommend-ed maintenance sched-ule. Adhering to your vehicle’s maintenance schedule serves many purposes, including improving the its du-rability and protecting various components, including its cooling system and drivetrain.

While many manufac-turers used to recom-mend changing a ve-hicle’s oil every 3,000 miles, many of today’s newer automobiles need their oil changed less frequently. Check your owner’s manu-al for manufacturer recommendations re-garding oil changes, and don’t forget to

replace the oil filter when changing your vehicle’s oil.

* Pay attention to brake pads. Brake pads that are allowed to wear down can cause damage to the brakes’ rotors and calipers. That damage can prove costly and make things harder on your vehicle. Keep

an eye on your vehi-cle’s brake pads, which are far less expensive to replace than ro-tors and calipers, and do not allow them to wear down to metal.

* Keep your tires properly inflated. Tires that are un-der-inflated will neg-atively impact your vehicle’s fuel efficien-cy. In addition, the tires’ life expectancy is reduced consider-ably when tires are not properly inflated. Routinely check your tire pressure, especial-ly if you drive a lot, and keep tires inflated at the pressure recom-mended in your vehi-cle’s owner’s manual.

* Be mindful when filling up your tank. Many people do not pay much attention to their surroundings when pulling into the filling station. But when you fill up can impact your car’s life expectancy. Perhaps the worst time to fill your tank is when the fuel tanker is in the gas station refill-ing the underground tanks. That’s because the process of fill-ing the underground tanks can stir up sed-iment that had settled

at the bottom of those tanks. If that sediment finds its way into your vehicle’s gas tank, it can clog filters and fuel injectors and neg-atively affect the vehi-cle’s performance. So unless your car is run-ning on empty, avoid refilling its gas tank when the tanker is still in the station.

* Take care of your vehicle’s interior, too.

Caring for a car is not just about being good to what’s under the hood. Caring for the car’s interior will not necessarily impact its performance, but a well-kept interior will improve how you look at your vehicle and how much you enjoy driving it. The longer you enjoy driving your vehicle, the longer you are likely to keep it.

Preserve the vehicle’s door and window seals; clean the dash-board, including the gauges, vacuum the floor mats; and wipe down the vehicle’s interior, whether it’s cloth or leather. Keep-ing up the appearance of the car’s interior will make the vehi-cle more enjoyable to drive and increase its value at resale.

Keeping a vehicle’s interior clean can make it more enjoyable to drive while encouraging owners to keep their cars for longer periods of time.
