By Jill Earl DAWSON CREEK - Last Saturday Dawson Creek

was named Canada’s first Solar City by the Canadian Solar Cities Project.

Residents celebrated what the city has proclaimed as “Solar Day” at Northern Lights College with the naming ceremony, tours of Energy House, building solar ovens, kite flying, a BBQ and draws.

“Of course it’s a great honour to be awarded the distinction of being the first Solar City but really the exciting part is now we get to go out as the Canadian Solar Cities Project and inspire other communities to do the same thing and we’re hopeful that we’ll have hundreds of Solar Cities by the end of the year,” said Coun. Cheryl Shuman, who is also a director on the Canadian Solar Cities Project board.

Bob Haugen is the executive director of the Ca-nadian Solar Cities Project, a nonprofit nongovern-ment organization created last month as the national leadership to administer and award cities as Solar Cit-ies. Haugen is the coordinator of the renewable en-ergy programs at Northern Lights College in Dawson Creek, and is the creator of the project.

Haugen, entering in a master’s program four years ago at Royal Roads University in Victoria while holding his position at the college, decided to do a research project to create criterion to designate cit-ies as solar cities when Emanuel Machado, the City’s sustainability director and the director of corporate

planning at that time, gave him the idea. Solar Cit-ies have been designated around the world by either governments or industry associations depending on the country.

“In Canada we didn’t have any criteria for a solar city so what I did was do a study, so I did research and looked at literature from around the world and came up with a set of criteria based on international models for solar cities, boiled that down to 10 points,” said Haugen.

He then sent out those 10 points to 25 Canadian cities that have been involved in the Canadian Solar Industries Association, are advanced in their sustain-ability practices and have met some of the European standards. He also sent the criteria to the Canadian Solar Industries Association and Natural Resourc-es Canada for their comments and feedback; he then conducted interviews with the cities and those who agreed to be a part of his study. He eventually changed all 10 points he had originally established.

“The Canadian set of criteria is quite different from then what it is in other parts of the world, but it truly is a Canadian set of criteria because it’s from the cit-ies of Canada and the groups that have the knowledge of what it means to be a Solar City,” Haugen said.

Any city can be deemed a Solar City through the project by demonstrating that they have met or have plans to meet the criteria which includes:

1.The municipality has a climate change plan with

short-term and long-term targets and time frames in place.

2.The municipality has a community energy plan in place.

3. The municipality has an energy plan for its own facilities.

4. The municipality has adopted targets for a pro-portion of total community energy demand to be met by renewable energy.

5. The municipality has established policies and in-centives for solar electricity and solar thermal utiliza-tion for residential homeowners.

6. The municipality has established policies and in-centives for solar electricity and solar thermal utiliza-tion for commercial ratepayers.

7.The municipality has a communication plan in place to build awareness of its renewable energy proj-ects and policies.

8. The municipality has established policies for land use planning to promote and encourage energy efficiency.

9. Community renewable energy, energy efficiency technologies and green living demonstration projects are developed, supported and encouraged by the city to demonstrate these concepts to the public.

10. The municipality has policies in place to en-courage district energy projects within its jurisdic-tion.

By Kyla CorpuzTAYLOR – A local resident, Keith Furman, accused the dis-

trict that their staff members were allegedly interfering with his land sales and soliciting their own.

Furman addressed district council on Jun. 19.“I have had three signed purchase contracts, when the buyers

have approached the district for more information, employ-ees have interfered with the sale,” he said.

He claimed it happened on more than one occasion, but chose to speak about the most recent occurrence.

Furman said he had three signed purchase contracts un-til the buyer(s) went to the District of Taylor looking for more information on what can be built on the lots and check the zoning of the property. The employee apparently told the buyer not to buy the lots, which were industrial area (zoned C1), and solicited a sale for District of Taylor owned property instead.

“At this point I also had an offer to lease for three years but opted to sell to this buyer to build a store for the benefit of the community, your employee cost me this deal as well,” said Furman.

Furman asked why district employees were soliciting his buy-ers to purchase land that is owned by Taylor without it being made known to the public.

But Taylor of District Administrator Charlette McLeod said their land sales are made public and advertised throughout the community.

The Community Charter states that council can dispose of most property without providing notice. However, it must pub-lish public notice of the proposed disposition.

“The lack of transparency regarding this disposal of land is illegal,” Furman was told by a member of the local government structure branch.

“I have grounds to pursue this matter through legal chan-nels, but would prefer not to,” said Furman. “I’m just looking for fair and equal treatment … the next time I have a buyer or leasee go to the district office, I would expect employees to conduct themselves in a pro-fessional manner and in accor-dance with the law.”

However, McLeod said the

district already abides by the law adding that Furman’s accusa-tions were “unfounded”.

“A lot of that stuff goes in-camera, it’s confidential, behind the scenes,” said McLeod. Council moved to a closed meeting between both parties after the regular council agenda was com-plete.

“Where he’s getting his information is being sorted out … his information is from somebody totally unrelated to the munici-pality,” McLeod added.

“His accusations are unfounded, it’s not a problem for us at all, everything that we have done has been totally above board.”

McLeod said Furman was advised to fill out a complaint form and clearly write out his concerns and what he wanted answers to.

“What we asked Mr. Furman to do is to put his specific items that he wanted addressed … for the most part in his mind there is some ambiguity but I guess when somebody comes to council they have their chance to speak.”

Furman has owned property in Taylor for eight years and is an active community member. He has worked for Spectra for over 30 years, has lived in Baldonnel and currently resides in Charlie Lake.

Furman also owns property in Dawson Creek, Taylor, Fort St. John and Charlie Lake.

By Kyla CorpuzCHARLIE LAKE – Treaty 8 First Nations celebrated Aboriginal Day on Jun. 21 by reclaiming

land where their ancestors once thrived.“The fact that we are doing our Aboriginal celebration on the property of our first home is just

outstanding, it’s a great day for the Danne Zaa,” said West Moberly First Nations Chief Roland Willson.

Doig River, Prophet River and West Moberly First Nations purchased the prehistoric Charlie Lake caves property on May. 29. The land encompasses the caves and a large home, which they are looking to turn into a bed and breakfast, until further planning.

“Our long-term vision is to create a cultural heritage and possible museum to recognize the indigenous people, the Danne Zaa, the Cree, who lived in this area and the significant importance of that,” said Willson.

The site dates back about 10,500 years. Recovered artifacts show there was early occupation believed was harvested by ancestors of the Danne Zaa/Dunne-za people.

“When my late grandpa passed on, like 2002, he remembers well and he tell us stories about how people come here to use the area,” said Doig River First Nations Chief Norman Davis. “So that’s why there’s a lot of artifacts.”

In 1974 an archeologist from SFU, Knut Fladmark, found the area was hiding a lot of artifacts, and in 1983 Fladmark came back to do a full excavation of the land.

“The name Charlie Lake cave site isn’t too accurate because most of the artifacts were found in the gulley of the cave,” said Karen Aird, cultural heritage planer with Treaty 8. “They did some testing inside the cave but didn’t find any artifacts inside the cave, it was inside the gully, and one of the reasons for that is that when this landscape was forming this was all sandstone up here, and there was a movement about 14 to 15,000 years ago, which part of the cave fell down, so the area in front of was filled with soil … Over 12,000 years we had a really good record of occupation because it was protected and filled with soil.”

DNA testing of bison bones are linked to the Indian Creek and Mill Iron sites in Montana, which suggests that travel was coming up from the south into northeast B.C.

“The other thing they found were two raven skeletons, and the raven skeletons indicate that there was ceremonial practice here as well as female mandible and the mandible might have been used for ceremonial, because that was the only part that was found, unfortunately the human remain part wasn’t documented properly, so we don’t much about it,” said Aird, adding that the whole area is one archeological site.

Neighbours to the new Treaty 8 house presented the Chiefs with arrowheads that were found in their backyard.

Overtime the caves have been vandalized, inside and out there are signs of graffiti written in what looks like white chalk.

The previous owners of the land tried to protect the caves, but with it being out of sight from the house, it was hard to manage.

“They tried their best to protect the caves but even now people come up and party in the caves and spray paint the caves, they don’t respect them,” said Willson.

“The province, once they identified, they should have put in parameters and do certain things to protect it, which they failed to do.”

The area is now considered tribal land and Treaty 8 have asked the public to refrain from access-ing the land without written permission.

Solar DayContinued from Front.

Dawson Creek meets these criteria as they have green living demonstration projects set up in city hall where the public can view their solar hot water system and their photovoltaic system, the city also has solar hot water systems on all municipal buildings and have incorporated so-

lar energy into some warning lights. “As the city replaces the old infrastructure

they replace it with energy efficient systems and solar systems. One of the things that Dawson Creek did from the early days going back quite a few years they established an energy plan and that energy plan was the basis for energy plans in much bigger cities across the country so it helped them,” Haugen said.

“Dawson Creek has been a leader in solar

and renewable and sustainability for years in the country, that’s why they meet the criteria,” he adds.

Haugen admits that he may be a little biased in awarding Dawson Creek as the first Solar City as the Canadian Solar Cities Project board includes city residents, a past resident, city staff members and Dawson Creek through the Fed-eration of Canadian Municipalities funded the study to develop criteria.

“Part of the reason why Dawson Creek is re-ally at the top of the list is because we have the college here, Northern Lights College, B.C.’s energy college and we’re also involved in the oil and gas industry and solar and renewable energy, and the city is totally advanced as far as sustainability practices are concerned. So Dawson Creek is a unique place in the country in that we have a such a rich energy heritage here,” Haugen said.

Not only does the Canadian Solar Cities

Project award the designations they also hope to host workshops and engage other communi-ties by sharing best practices and models. The project hopes to attract applications to become a solar city by sending municipalities letters through the Federation of Canadian Munici-palities. Once the project is more established they want to promote green initiatives taken on by municipalities through their website to give other municipalities ideas of the possibilities.

Haugen says that projects and initiatives through local governments are the best way to affect change.

“Municipalities are the most direct connec-tion to citizens and can make the most change happen as far as projects like climate change projects or sustainability projects, so that’s re-ally where the leadership has to happen…We look at the Canadian Solar Cities Project as a way to influence public policy in a really direct way,” he said.

MP ReportBy Bob Zimmer, MP Prince George-Peace River

In my last MP Report I discussed how, in society today, we all use natural resources, and how we can support the responsible development of these resources while also being good stewards for the environment.

In this report, I would like to focus on the economic and social benefits to our community in developing our natural resources responsibly. As the 21st century unfolds, it is increasingly clear that Canada’s energy and natural resources are massive assets to our country in the global economy. This is especially true given that few countries are as blessed with natural resources as we are, allowing us to become more competitive in attracting in-vestment dollars.

Economically, our natural resources industries, including en-ergy, mining and minerals processing, and forestry, account for more than 10 per cent of our gross domestic product (total value of goods and services produced in Canada) and provide close to 800,000 jobs in Canada.

In the next 10 years, more than 500 new projects representing over $500 billion in new investments will be proposed for Can-ada in the natural resources sector. In British Columbia, compa-nies are looking to invest $83.9 billion over the next ten years.

This investment will create hundreds of thousands of jobs and economic growth across Canada. From manufacturing to the service sector to the financial sector – every sector of Canada’s economy has something to gain from resource development.

Socially, the resource sector generates tens of billions of dol-lars worth of tax revenues and royalties annually for govern-ments to fund our many compassionate programs. For example, over the past five years, the oil and gas industry has contrib-uted an average of $22 billion a year to government revenues, revenues which help to pay for everything, from education and health care, to roads and bridges.

In fact, our Conservative Government has committed to in-creasing health care transfers to the provinces. Under our new investment, health care funding will increase from $30 billion per year in 2013-14 to more than $38 billion per year in 2018-19. Total funding for health care over that five year period will be at least $178 billion.

One of the reasons why we have the funding to do so is thanks to the tax revenues from our natural resources.

As the Canadian Manufacturers and Exporters has said, “We often think of energy and resource developments in remote terms – geographically removed from the lives of most Canadians. The

fact is that all Canadians stand to benefit in very real ways from the wealth created by these developments.”

But we must seize the moment, while being environmentally responsible. These opportunities are not going to last forever. We’re going to have to compete with other resource-rich coun-tries for those vital job-creating investment dollars. And, acting on this opportunity means putting in place a world-class regula-tory system to review major projects. That is why our Conserva-tive Government is acting in Economic Action Plan 2012 with our plan for Responsible Resource Development.

Responsible Resource Development is founded on four pil-lars:

1) to make project reviews more predictable and timely

while still maintaining thoroughness; 2) to reduce duplication of project reviews; 3) to strengthen environmental protection; and 4) to enhance Aboriginal consultation. Responsible Resource Development will create good, skilled,

well-paying jobs in cities and communities across Canada by streamlining the review process for major economic projects.

The time is now for Canada’s immense resources. We know that it is not only possible, but absolutely necessary to ensure timely, efficient and effective project reviews, while at the same time act as good stewards of our environment as we continue to develop our natural resources. We CAN do both!

The Ministry of Agriculture is inviting public comment on developing the Agricultural Land Commission’s (ALC) fee structure to support its evolution into a more self-sustaining organization.

The survey seeks comments on four areas the ALC has identified as possible sources to augment its provincial funding:

1. A review of existing ALC application fees, which were last increased in 2002, for exclusion, subdivision, non-farm use and utility corridor applications.

2. A new service fee to support the ALC’s work to ensure that criteria on conditionally approved applications are met.

3. A new fee for the ALC’s ongoing monitoring and site inspections of long-term approvals.

4. A new fee for the ALC’s oversight and administration of delegation agreements with local governments and other authorities.

The funding derived from these sources is intended to provide the ALC with the ability to focus on its core mandate of encouraging farming, as well as improving compliance and enforcement activities, online resources, training for staff and commissioners and conducting targeted Agricultural Land Reserve boundary reviews.

The survey provides an opportunity for British Columbians to contribute to the strengthening of the ALC. Comments can be provided at: http://www.agf.gov.bc.ca/aboutind/ALC_Consultation\index.htm and will be accepted until July 8. At the end of the process, a summary of public comments will be posted on the website.

The amended fee structure is the latest step in a comprehensive reform package for the ALC that began in November 2011. This package includes $1.6 million in transitional funding and legislative changes supporting the ALC’s focus on its core

Dear Editor,The Conservatives rammed through the House of Commons

an omnibus budget bill that is sweeping in scope, deeply flawed in content, and anti-democratic in principle.

The Harper Conservatives have eliminated independent bodies like the National Roundtable on the Environment and the Economy that offer advice it may disagree with. Also, by gutting fifty years of environmental protections, the government has given itself the unilateral power to green-light major and potentially harmful resource development projects without adequate scrutiny.

This bill makes changes to the Fisheries Act that could endanger many fish populations, including the migratory

salmon, a timeless presence on the Canadian landscape, not to mention a staple of the economy.

Against the advice of many experts, the government will be raising the qualifying age from 65 to 67 for Old Age Security and the Guaranteed Income Supplement, beginning in 2023, thus robbing vulnerable senior citizens of up to $30 000 in much needed income.

As if targeting seniors isn`t enough, the new changes in Employment Insurance will impact those who work in seasonal employment and the government did not even bother to consult employers or the provinces which will be most impacted.

In addition to criticizing specific measures in this budget bill, the major problem is that it amends, creates or eliminates

70 different federal acts. By burying dozens of significant and damaging changes within a ‘kitchen sink’ bill, the government is preventing Members from doing their job by giving these changes proper consideration and scrutiny.

While undermining the role of Parliament, Bill C-38 is a clear abuse of power and makes a joke of democracy. Once again, Canadians are kept in the dark and it is of the utmost importance that we raise awareness to this unprecedented situation. The Liberal Party will continue to fight against this kind of anti-democratic abuse of power.

Sincerely,Marc Garneau, MPLiberal House Leader

Conservative kitchen-sink bill abuses our democracyFEEDBACK

Dear Editor,Recent warnings of flood and high water levels in BC are

strong testimony to this year’s rainy spring and higher than normal BC snowpack. They also mean the province’s many hydroelectric dams will not be short of water this year like they have been for most of the past decade.

As crazy as it sounds, for most of the past decade, BC has actually had to import power from outside the province to meet

the province’s energy needs. And much of that imported power has not been clean hydroelectric power. Much of it has been coal-fired.

We have an incredible amount of green, renewable energy in this province that we could be developing to meet our energy needs. We should not need to import power here in BC even in a low water year.

Considering the fact that this year’s higher than normal water

flow is clearly the exception rather than the rule, we should not allow it to lull us into complacency. We need to get on with developing our renewable energy resources and we need to do it aggressively so that we are ready for whatever the future holds for our province.

Robert van DyckVancouver, BC

Hydro Dams will not be short of water this year

Dear Editor,Record high gasoline prices are in the news again here

in BC. But instead of complaining about it, and slavishly paying the price, we should really be looking to the abundant renewable energy alternatives we have available here in BC and considering electric vehicles.

Electric vehicles, and the batteries that power them,

have made major leaps over the past decade. And proven production models are on the road and sitting in car dealer showrooms. Put them together with BC’s abundance of renewable energy in an aggressively significant way and, voila, high gasoline prices won’t be news in BC anymore they’ll be history.

We can go on riding the never ending upward spiral of

gasoline prices, or we can consider the energy alternatives BC has been blessed with.

Renewable energy provides us with a way to opt out of high gasoline prices and still be on the road for virtual pennies a mile.

By Jill Earl DAWSON CREEK - The City’s 2nd annual

competition powwow is nearly a week away and organizers are busy preparing for this event that attracted approximately 150 competitive dancers from all over the province, and in the United States, as well as approximately 1,200 spectators last year.

“I couldn’t believe it, it was dancers galore and they were still coming through the door and we were crowded,” said Margaret Belcourt, sponsorship director for the Powwow, on her reaction to the number of people who attended

last year. “It’s a very emotional moment,

and it’s a very emotional journey be-cause these people are coming to support you and your kids and your community and so for us, it was emotional,” said Denise Paul-Bel-court, chairperson for the Powwow committee.

The Aboriginal Family Services Dawson Creek branch is hosting the Powwow with a lot of help from staff, Powwow committee mem-bers and volunteers. Organizers once again have reached out to elders Mooshum Frank Daniels and Kookum Isabelle Auger from Slave Lake

to help plan the Powwow prop-erly using the correct traditions and protocols.

“We use Kookum and Mooshum to do the initiation and the naming ceremony be-cause it is a ceremony that is spiritual and sacred, and not anybody can do it…that would be disrespectful and it involves a connection to the Creator...Even if we knew exactly what we were doing from A to B we would still need them because they carry us, that’s the only term I can use, they carry us, they carry us through every-thing and help guide us,” said Paul-Belcourt.

Paul-Belcourt says that not all Aboriginal seniors can be called elders; they must have served their community in or-der to earn the right to be called an elder.

“They have earned their right, they sit there because they’ve earned the right, they do sweat lodges, they do sun dances, they are so full of knowledge and so spiritual that we don’t carry anything, they carry it all for us,” Paul-Belcourt said about Daniels and Auger.

The three-day event held at the Memorial Area on Jul. 6-8 will see competitors in three women’s categories: traditional, fancy and jingle, and four men’s categories: traditional, fancy, chicken and crass. Every age group will be represented with tiny tots, 7-12, 13-18, 19-35, 36-45, 46-65, and a 65-plus division. Usu-ally dancers enter in only one dance category and dance to two songs in that category. The competition will see drum competitors too.

The arena director, who runs the competition and clears the competition floor of any fallen hairpieces, selects the judges. Judges can’t be related to competitors and judge those dancers by their timing; the dancers feet should hit the floor at every drumbeat.

“The biggest thing is, you’re competing against the drum, that’s your biggest competi-tor, the drum,” said Paul-Belcourt.

The top four dancers in every category are awarded with prize money. Though Aboriginal Family Services has their own dance group of about 40 dancers it’s tradition that those danc-ers not compete in their own Powwow or neigh-bouring Powwows in order to encourage danc-ers from other communities to attend, though local dancers will still attend to exhibit.

“We always say the money is nice, and it is good to win, but when you’re out there you’re dancing with the drum, you’re dancing for the ones that cannot dance, you’re dancing for the ones that have gone, and you’re dancing to heal yourself, and that’s why she’s out there (De-nise’s daughter) that’s why the regalia is so co-lourful because it’s a part of their spirit,” Paul-Belcourtsaid.

She added that the drug- and alcohol-free event is more than just dancing; attendees en-joy making connections with new people and visiting with old friends. One of the reasons why the staff at the Aboriginal Family Services wanted to host a Powwow in the first place was to educate Aboriginal youth about their culture and provide a way to celebrate their heritage.

“I remember when the elders were talking to myself and my husband, they talked about the pain in the community of Dawson Creek and how we’re losing our children,” Paul-Belcourt-said.

“It’s not just Native children that are hurt-ing in this community, all the children and the youth are hurting, there’s pain, there’s sub-stance issues, poverty issues, our children have a lot more to face than we did. Part of healing the community of Dawson Creek is healing the children, that’s why the Powwow is here, it’s about healing everybody, nobody is excluded from our circle everybody is welcome into our circle,” she adds.

Belcourt says dancing has the power to

By The Investors GroupYour teen has their first ever summer job – and an income!

Part of your teen’s work experience will likely include on-the-job instruction and part of their summer experience should definitely include on-the-money instruction. Money manage-ment is an important life lesson everybody needs to learn and, with your teen about to enjoy a regular payday for the first time, you have the perfect window of opportunity to pass along some good information that will put them on the fast track to future financial success. Here are some on-the-money tips to pass along.

The early bird builds a bigger nest egg. How your teen han-dles money as an adult will depend largely on the habits they learn growing up. Be a good money role model and motivate your teen to be a regular saver and investor from day one.

Money manage for advantage. Peer pressure and relentless youth-oriented advertising have escalated teen overspending into an expensive – and potentially lifelong – epidemic. Ef-fective money management is the cure. Explain to your teen the value of always controlling expenses so they don’t exceed income. Work with them to create a realistic budget with mea-surable and attainable goals – and be their guide along the way.

File today for better returns tomorrow. Your teen should file an income tax return to report the earnings from his or her summer job. Your teen’s income may be below taxable levels right now but they will start accumulating RRSP contribution room that can be carried forward indefinitely. When your teen reaches age 19, they should also apply for the GST/HST credit on each year’s tax return. Based on net income, your teen will likely be eligible to receive quarterly GST/HST cheques.

Be a ten-percenter today for a richer tomorrow. Early sav-ings take full advantage of the miracle of compound interest – so encourage your teen to save at least 10% of their take-home pay by using this dramatic example: Invest $1 a day for 40 years at an interest rate of 5% and you’ll have about $44,000!!1

You know the lifelong importance of saving, investing and money management and you want your teen to know all about

it, as well – and to follow your teachings to a comfortable fi-nancial future. But sometimes teens develop selective hearing loss – especially when it comes to accepting advice from their parents. An external informed opinion can make the difference – so why not give your professional advisor a call for some additional help?

Editor: The past five and a half years in the Peace Country as President and CEO of

Northern Lights College have been very fulfilling. The potential I noted for NLC when I decided to apply for this position is

evolving and becoming a reality. The addition of the Centre of Excellence for Clean Energy Technologies in Dawson Creek, combined with the Jim Kassen Industry Training Centre/ Oil and Gas Centre of Excellence in Fort St. John, allows Northern Lights College to fulfil its brand as B.C.'s Energy College™.

NLC is committed to providing the skilled workers for these expanding industrial sectors and supporting the economic development of the region. Given the scope of the industrial expansion in our region, a major part of my role at the College was to build capacity through partnerships with other post-secondary institutions and industry, and to ensure that funding provided by the government supports the breadth and depth of needed programming.

I knew Northern Lights College was a "classy" institution when the first person to welcome

me to my new job was the former President, Jim Kassen. He committed 25 years to NLC and provided me with a firm foundation on which to build.

T h e institution is fortunate to have capable faculty and

staff, and has been able to recruit experienced leaders in many departments. The leadership team members are exceptional and I have been proud to work with them. Further, the clarity of the College's vision is attracting experienced professionals who want to contribute to an organization that "knows where it is going".

It also has been gratifying to collaborate on Dual Credit programming with local School Districts, industry, Aboriginal agencies and other post-secondary partners through Northern Opportunities. The Peace Region is very fortunate to have a group of exceptional leaders committed to expanding the scope of this program and to spreading the word on the benefits of this innovative educational initiative. I have been very impressed by the passion for learning these leaders bring to the table, but also for their continuing commitment to finding learning solutions for the youth of the region.

Over the years, I have received support and encouragement from local politicians, including: Senator Richard Neufeld, the former Minister of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources; Jay Hill, former Member of Parliament for Prince George-Peace River; Blair Lekstrom, MLA for Peace River South and former Minister of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources; and Pat Pimm, MLA for Peace River North. And I would like to acknowledge the exceptional municipal and regional leadership provided by the Chiefs and Band Councils, Mayors and Councils, and Regional District Boards. I was impressed by the quality of leadership demonstrated by members of the oil and gas and renewable energy industries. Thank you to all for being willing to work with Northern Lights College on joint planning that benefits the region.

The College’s Board of Governors recruited me to make changes and supported me when the changes became uncomfortable. I was very appreciative of this support and pleased that the original Board and succeeding Boards provided progressive direction and encouraged innovation. I am particularly proud that we continued to focus on the fundamental mandate of providing education for quality of life in the region, and that we were responsive to requests by industry for new programming.

I am looking forward to the innovative initiatives and opportunities for applied research in clean energy technologies that are in the planning stages. Through partnerships with provincial, national and international leaders in this evolving industry, Northern Lights College is poised to demonstrate the strength of its vision. I will be cheering from afar as these plans become operational.

My husband Gordon and I made friends with a number of very special people in the north and we will miss you. We were treated to the unique brand of warmth, enthusiasm and innovative spirit we now associate with northern British Columbia.

A fond farewell to you all and our sincere thank you for your many kindnesses. D. Jean Valgardson, Dawson Creek

By Kyla CorpuzTAYLOR – The next J.K. Rowling may have been among the 164 young authors at

Taylor Elementary on Jun. 21. For the second year students from Kindergarten to Grade 6, including the preschool-

ers for the first time, celebrated the Young Authors Book Signing.“Every classroom, including our preschools this year, have gone and put together a

small compilation of poetry or story, and it’s been published in the United States and its recently made its way up to Fort St. John,” said Jason Gill, Taylor Elementary principal.

Grade 5/6 students learned different types of poetry such as haikus and limericks, and compiled them into a seven-page book. Grade 4s wrote fractured fairy tales, while Grade 3s wrote a book about why their family is special.

“My family is special because they go places with me, and love me and we do things together,” said Abby, Grade 3.

Preschoolers to Grade 2s put togeth-er a book as a class.

“You have to teach writing any-way, it doesn’t mat-ter what grade you teach,” said Donna-Lee Cooper, the teacher who started the book project. “We actually have a published product to assess them on, it’s just a really good way to do your writing and at the very end those kids feel a

sense of accomplishment and pride.”Elementary student Jerzi said she enjoyed the book-writing process and said her favourite poem

to write was called In Charge of the World because she got to express “what should and shouldn’t be.”

“They begin to realize what does go into a real published book and it’s not just Robert Munsch spewing the words and ‘Wow he has a book!’” said Cooper. “And that the illustrations are very thoughtful and detailed and it takes a lot of time and effort to do.”

For Grade 6 student, Norissa, she said the hardest part was drawing the cover of her book. “It was one of the last things we did, so we had to do it really quickly but make it neat at the same time.”

“At Taylor Elementary we celebrate literacy,” said Gill. “We want to make sure the students have a strong hold in literacy that they can read and play into the future with that skill set, it’s a very important piece.”

Having the books published builds a sense of confidence in the students, he added, which will help them in the future.

“Maybe we’ll see a future Stephen King or Tom Clancy, it doesn’t matter who, but we can really see them developing themselves as authors. It gives them a chance to really explore that opportu-nity in the future. But once again it promotes their skills in writing and reading.”

The book signing was held inside the Taylor Elementary School gym where parents, grandpar-ents and family friends came to support the young authors.

“It’s just a really great way to do something as a whole school and bringing us all to-gether and give them a sense of ‘Wow I’m a writer’,” said Cooper. “How many people can actually say that they’ve published a book?”

Cooper said bringing this idea to Taylor is a legacy she wanted to leave with the school, as her career as a teach-er may come to a close in the next eight years.

“It’s a very important thing for them to have. It’s like a memory that they’ve published a book,” she said.

All of the students signed their own books that are now on display at the Taylor Public Library.

D.C. PowwowStory continued from Page 8. transform youth in the community, no matter their problems or circumstance. She said many dancers in their group are dealing with home and personal issues; those dancers tend to follow dancing pro-tocol more strictly and are the best danc-ers. “You’ll see a young man or a young women everyday and their attitudes and how they behave, and to see them dance it seems like a different person…It’s such a transformation, it’s beautiful,” she said.

Belcourt didn’t see her first powwow until she was in her 20s and says that there are a lot of older Natives that have never attended one.

“I saw my first Powwow, it’s just like my blood went cold, I was just amazed ... to this day there are lots of people that don’t know what a Powwow is and this is what we’re doing, we’re bringing awareness so

that the people can get all this pride with-in themselves, they’ve lost their identity, they go out and don’t even have a home base or whatever...and that’s what a pow-wow does, it brings pride to people,” she said.

Paul-Belcourt hopes that having an an-nual Powwow will restore some of the Native culture the community has lost over the years. “We grew up in a time where it was about assimilation and about change, like the residential school effects ... where we’ve lost our language. For my daughter this is going to be normal and

that’s what we want for the community of Dawson Creek, where it’s not such a surprise to have a powwow in your com-munity, it’s normal, and you want to give that sense of normalcy to the kids,” she said.

The organizing committee has worked since September o fundraise for the event and is still looking for sponsors. The committee has chosen not to charge ad-mission, they wanted to keep the event free so everyone has the opportunity to enjoy. Paul-Belcourt quotes Kookum Auger when she says, “It’s not right to

charge for our culture.”

By Jill Earl DAWSON CREEK - Rotary Lake has

been open for the public to enjoy for the past two weeks but opening celebrations were a little late.

Last Saturday the Rotary Lake Pres-ervation Society hosted the summer opening of Rotary Lake with the help of volunteers from members of the Friends of Rotary Lake group. As the society be-came a legal entity in April, this is the first opening celebration that they’ve hosted and hope to make it an annual event.

“We just want to encourage people to use the lake because it’s there and it’s a free place for families to come and gather and enjoy a sunny day,” said Sharlene Weingart, creator of the Friends of Rotary Lake group and director on the Mile 0 Park Society board.

Families came out to celebrate, enjoy the day and partake in races, a bouncy castle, watch BMX demonstrations and of course swim. The Stonewall Develop-

ment Society was also there with a dunk tank to raise money towards a splash park. Vendors and home businesses were there selling candles, baked goods, and jewelry to name a few of their products. M&M Meat Shops set up a BBQ with proceeds going to the preservation society for their future events.

The public can enjoy the lake from 11a.m. to 8p.m. daily, as well as two play-grounds, a BMX track, volleyball court, change rooms and washrooms. In order to prepare for the opening maintenance workers at the lake had to replace a hold-ing tank, drain the lake, pressure wash it and refill it. The lake is chlorinated, and levels are checked daily. Weingart remembers when the lake wasn’t chlori-nated when she was a kid and the bottom was green and slimy. For Weingart visit-ing the lake is still an enjoyed past time, and now brings her daughter there.

“For us it was just the biggest deal or it felt like the biggest deal to have a pic-

nic lunch packed up and my dad would be out fighting forest fires so it wasn’t like we could go camping because we were at home with mom and so that was like our camping trip so we’d go down to the lake and have a picnic and our neighbourhood friends would come and it was just a fun day at the beach and it didn’t really cost much and everybody could enjoy it,” We-ingart said.

Controversy over the lake arose earlier this year when council was uncertain of it’s future in the park. Council later de-cided to hold off on any decisions until further public consultation is made.

“It certainly reminds people to come out and enjoy it, I think the biggest thing that will determine if people come out to enjoy it is really the weather, and last year was kind of a rainy summer and hopefully this summer is more enjoyable, but I’ve been in the water already and it’s pretty warm,” Weingart said.

Despite forecast families find fun at lake

Canada Day - July 1stOnce a year we celebrate the fact that we are lucky enough to be Canadian!

To be Canadian is to be blessed, when we consider our way of life in

comparison to so many others in this world! We must never take this for

granted.

Our beautiful country has provided us with a lifestyle envied by the rest of the world and we should cherish our good

fortune.

On July 1st get together with family and friends to celebrate Canada’s

birthday and all the wonderful things our country stands for!

Happy Canada Day!

Derby girls battle hard in season’s first bout

By Kyla CorpuzFORT ST. JOHN - Despite a 50-124 loss for the Energetic

City Roller Derby Association against Rated PG Roller Girls from Prince George, Kim Large ECRDA member said it was “amazing” considering the tough battle against a more experi-enced team. ECRDA play again on Jul. 7 at the Pomeroy Sport Centre at 7 p.m.

By Jill Earl DAWSON CREEK - Last Wednesday seniors were invited to

board the city bus as part of Ticket to Ride, a Community Action for Seniors Independence initiative.

This is the second Ticket to Ride the CASI Dawson Creek branch has hosted, aimed at getting seniors more comfortable with riding the bus.

“What’s keeping people from getting involved in their com-munity? If it’s a matter of transportation then how can we help them? People become more independent with transportation and we’re hoping that exposing people to the bus system, how it works and also helping them see what sort of things they can

access from the bus route might give them that little bit of im-petus to get out there and go at it,” said Linda Studley, CASI’s program coordinator.

After picking up 24 seniors at their homes the city bus trav-elled to the Dawson Creek Art Gallery, the EnCana multiplex for the use of their walking track and Faking Sanity to end the trip with tea, snacks and a little socializing.

“I think that kind of gives us a nice balance, we’re visit-ing a facility where there’s arts and culture and we’re visiting a facility where there’s an oppor-tunity for exercise and fitness and then the final one is more of a social aspect and it’s kind of nice to finish off an outing with a cup of tea and a piece of cake,” Studley said.

Along with a free ride, the seniors were also welcome to information bags donated by Pharmasave in the Co-Op Mall stuffed with information about the CASI program, South Peace Seniors Access Services Soci-ety and the BC Seniors’ Guide. The bags also included a book about the Dawson Creek bus system with maps of the routes and suggested stops, the booklet was printed by CASI with the help of the United Way of Northern B.C. All riders were also eligible to win one of four gift bags donated by Shoppers Drug Mart. The bus driver and the use of the city bus were donated by BC Transit and the City of Dawson Creek.

“I was really impressed because it had the map in it and I had never taken a bus, never, I always had a car and now I don’t and I didn’t know what buses to take to where I wanted to go,” said

Lori Lintorn, Ticket to Ride at-tende. “The trouble was know-ing what bus to take to where and I think the map and that book it going to be a big help.”

“I still drive but you never known when you might have to end up riding the bus,” said at-tendee Marg Graff, adding that the outing provides an opportu-nity to explore the community.

Arleene Thorpe, CASI’s vol-

unteer coordinator, started Ticket to Ride last year when sev-eral seniors were confused about changes to the bus route and schedule. As a result Thorpe organized the event that had seniors riding and getting comfortable with the new route with stops at local businesses like the Old Fashioned Bakery, M&M Meat Shops and the final stop at Sudeten Hall for a BBQ with local and BC Transit representatives.

“Our mandate is to make seniors more independent and it’s important that seniors understand that they have a voice and anyway that we can empower them especially when it has to do with independence to speak up and say that they have concerns or we need this, and I think that’s a worthwhile thing for us to do and it was a really, really excellent day we all had a great time,” Studley said.

CASI hopes to do more bus trips in the future to other facili-ties and groups like the seniors’ outdoor fitness centre and the Exploring Arts Group at O’Brian school. Thorpe is even consid-ering taking the seniors on a fishing trip.

“I’m hoping that seniors will use the bus to become more en-gaged in their community and be able to take control over their own transportation requirements to a certain degree…anytime that we can help a senior become more independent and do it for themselves, then that’s great, that’s our primary objective to help that happen,” Studley said.

FORT ST. JOHN - The Northeast News spoke with 2012 Miss BC contestant Michelle Svisdahl, 23, who was born and raised in Fort St. John.

The 23-year-old moved to Vancouver after high school to pursue a career in the makeup industry and has just launched her own line, Miss Apples Cosmetics.

During a telephone interview, we got the scoop on what she hopes to gain from the Miss BC pageant, what makes her cosmetic line special and why she’ll always be a northern girl.

Tell me how you became interested in participating in Miss BC.

I’ve had a few friends who did beauty pageants before and they told me it was such a wonderful experience that they had with it. So I looked into it and came across it. The Miss BC

pageant ... it’s not a typical beauty pageant … you don’t have to look a certain way to be involved in it. So that really intrigued me because I think it should be more than that.

When did you hear you were going to be one of the con-testants?

I applied around Christmas time and I found out just after Christmas that I was accepted to be one of the contestants. It was exciting, it’s such a great opportunity, to not only meet so many great, wonderful people but also be a role model and inspiration to other people as well.

If you do take home the title, what do you hope to do with it?

The title is just a title. You can still do what you want to do if you win or lose, if you have a title or not you can still do the same thing. But being in the public eye you can inspire so many more people.

So I hear you recently started your own makeup line?Yeah! I actually just started selling in the last month, so it’s

been an exciting adventure for me, definitely. It’s been some-thing that I’ve been working on for the last year and a half. So to have it finally out there it’s amazing. It’s such an overwhelming experience.

Why did you choose to go into cosmetics and what inspired you to start your own line?

I went to makeup school right after high school, I graduated in Fort St. John. And right after I got accepted to John Casablanca,

which is a beauty school, esthetician, hair and makeup school in Vancouver, so I moved to Vancouver right after high school.

By Jill Earl DAWSON CREEK - The latest show at the

Dawson Creek Art Galley is hung and ready to be viewed by residents and tourists alike.

The South Peace Arts Society is the umbrella organization to the gallery, and its members have the opportunity to show their work in the gallery twice a year during the summer and winter seasons, which considered to be “pretty big in a small community,” according to Alana Hall, operations manager and director of the art gallery.

Though the society boasts a membership of approximately 290 people, only about 30 of them have submitted work to the show housing 91 pieces. Hall believes that the show is smaller than in previous years because of all the other opportunities for artists to display their work, like in their last show which was an open juried exhibit or the current art walk initiative where several local businesses will house several pieces by 18 local artists at the end of June and throughout July.

“Everyone can pick up a brochure and they go around to each business to look at different pieces of art, so I think that’s why our show is a bit smaller cause those people are holding on to those pieces to exhibit downtown,” Hall said.

Hall described the show, which is annually titled ‘In the Summertime,’ as an eclectic mix of mediums.

“It’s eclectic, with a member show it always ends up being eclectic, in this one of course we have oil painting, water colour, acrylic, we have some wood work in our exhibit as well as pottery. So it’s a little bit of everything, and that’s what kind of happens at member shows, cause everyone has there own little niche that they’re good at,” Hall said.

‘In the Summertime’ is not a themed exhibit

and artists were free to bring in any of their pieces with few restrictions. Part of the soci-ety’s policy is that artwork should be framed, the piece can’t be shown at any other society-member shows and each artist was restricted to submitting five pieces each due to spacing issues. Hall said that spacing is one of their big-gest issues in displaying artwork but try to ac-commodate the artists if they can.

“...because we’re on a ramp we have a bit of a height restriction…if it can fit in the gallery we’ll do it. One time we had Emily Mattson, she had created a boat out of willow and cow placenta and dried it and it was very lumines-cent, it was amazing and they had it hanging in the center here from the ceiling, so you could kind of walk under it,” she said.

The society not only provides local artists with a venue twice a year to display their work, they also promote growth in the community for the arts by providing classes and workshops and easy access to exhibits. The society is a non-profit and doesn’t charge to see the exhib-its it hosts but accepts donations.

Anyone can become a member of the society by paying their annual dues of $35 a year. Be-ing a member also allows for networking with other artists, and space permitting, some even have their pieces in the gallery’s gift shop.

“...it just makes sense that they should be able to showcase their work twice a year, and of course Christmas time is the busiest time so we like to give that to our members to help promote their art sales,” said Hall. “Summer time we have so many tourists coming through. They love to see local work so it’s a really great opportunity for our local artists for so many in-ternational people to see them.”

‘In the Summertime’ will be at the Dawson Creek Art Gallery until Aug. 16.

Tots graduate from Play Arts By Kyla Corpuz

FORT ST. JOHN - Play Arts Preschool wrapped up its first year with a showcase of what the children learned and a walk across the stage donning colourful graduation caps.

“It was extremely success-ful, I think more than we could have hopped for,” said Susan McGarvey.

Play Arts, a new preschool that started last September, received a “positive and excit-

ing” response from parents.“Next year we are actually

going to have two classes, a morning and afternoon, and we’ll be accepting 18 in each … people are still trying to get in for next year,” said McGar-vey.

Play Arts is a normal pre-school that adds in the aspect of arts to early childhood learning. From sign language, to yoga, music, rhythm, dance, cooking, drama and a little bit of Spanish—McGarvey said

these extra tools are helpful in evolving little brains.

“What it is that studies are showing is that the arts is a great way for kids’ brains to grow,” she said. “We know that sports is really good for the body, it helps our muscles grow. They’re finding that arts is just as important for the mind...”

Certified Early Childhood Education instructors and high-profile musicians teach Play Arts Preschool.

By Jill Earl DAWSON CREEK - In the last School District 59 board

meeting of the school year, trustees approved the 2012-2013 budget presented by secretary-treasurer Gerry Slykhuis.

The budget predicts the equivalent of approximately 3,835.333 full-time students and 3.25 adult students will be enrolled in South Peace schools next year, down 33.5 full-time students and

down 3.5 adult students from this year. Though there is a slight drop in enrolment the school board expects to pay $82,120 more for instruction next year, from $33,449,498 this school year to $33,531,618 for the next.

Slykhuis said that next year the board will lose a lot of fund-ing, $250,000 in transportation funding and $613,000 in enrol-ment decline funding for example. The school district has other means of revenue however to help with the loss, such as income from their investments and renting the O’Brian school gym and classroom to the city.

“Our Gwillam Lake Camp that we let the kids use we do rent that to non-school district people sometimes so it’s the revenue from that, we started charging the private schools for bussing a year ago, so that money shows up there. For old school buses or old equipment that we don’t use anymore we put them up for auction and we’ll get money for that, so lots of little things,” Slykhuis said.

Slykhuis said that he predicted these cuts last year and put away more money in reserve funding to help with the loss. The money that was put away will help to fund special initiative projects for next school year and to maintain a total balanced budget of $49,170,381.

“This was planned, so we have some projects like the Central School roof where we’re using reserve money to pay for it … there are a couple others, en-ergy projects, the board actually put aside last year $490,000 for those and they put aside $300,000 for some roofing projects, so it’s actually money that we’ve set aside in reserves to do these projects,” Slykhuis said.

Other projects that all schools in the area will see include: an electrical upgrade, major roofing re-pairs, plumbing upgrades, site drainage, ventilation upgrade, window upgrade and exterior painting. Tumbler Ridge Secondary School will have their gym floor replaced and Windrem Elementary and Parkland Elementary will have their gym floors re-finished, Ècole Frank Ross will have new carpet in their music room; among many other upgrades and repairs in South Peace schools.

Slykhuis said that these projects hope to be completed before June 2013, but may have to defer some of them in the event of an unlikely situation.

“If something significant happens we might have to defer a bunch of projects and go do that one instead, so this is kind of our guide line of what we’d like to do,” he said.

Throughout the year Slykhuis provides financial updates to the board so they can ensure that everything is on track. Though things happen throughout the year that the board can’t control, Slykhuis said that they are able to stick to the budget fairly close.

“A budget is your best guess of what’s going to happen and my job through the year is to track that and if I know that ex-penses are going up in one area I better make sure they’re going down somewhere else, so my job is to track all that and at the end of the day hope it evens out, this year it’s going to work out well but in another year it could go in another direction,” he said.

• British Home Child Memory Quilt Exhibit - Between 1869 and 1948, 100 000 British Home Children were sent to Canada by church groups, orphanages, and workhouses to work on farms or as domestic help. These groups thought that poor and abandoned children would have a better life in Canada than on the street and in the workhouses of Britain. Many thrived in Canada but others suffered abuse, poor working conditions, and loneliness. 2010 was designated as the Year of the British Home Child. Three quilts were made in Canada with squares submitted by descendents of these British Home Children. This quilt comes to us from Alberta and was lovingly put together by Hazel Perrier, a descendent of British Home Children. It depicts the experiences of these children across the country. On display until the end of August at the Fort St. John North Peace Museum, 9323 – 100th Street. Open Monday to Saturday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more information call 250-787-0430.

I decided I wanted to do my own thing, and let my creativity show a little bit instead of what other people were telling me to do. I wanted to have my own ideas, be creative with it. With makeup it’s such an empowering thing because it will make women feel confident. I don’t think women necessarily have to wear makeup, but if it’s something that they do to feel confident as themselves, as women, I think it’s so empowering to be able to create that.

There are lots of makeup lines out there, what makes yours stand out? What makes it different?

With my makeup line at this point, it’s more real. You know, other makeup lines, sure there are a lot of great makeup lines out there with great makeup artists working under their title, but it’s never the person that you are dealing with personally, whereas I’m constantly involved in asking people’s opinions.

I think it’s very important for people to be in touch with the person who designed that product.

What product stands out the most?Right now I have two products out at the moment. There will

be new ones at the end of the month, but right now I have the Super Lash Mascara—which is amazing because it will make your lashes grow as well. I have had amazing feedback, and people send me so many pictures of how their eyelashes are growing, so it’s really inspiring to see people so excited about it.

(Product is made out of kera-tin and panthenol, which are substances that create growth in hair)

Congratulations on your new line and being a contes-tant on Miss BC. So the actual competition is on July 2, what have you been doing to pre-pare for it?

We’re actually working with the charity Cops for Cancer. So every contestant has a char-ity that they raise money for. I’ve held two fundraisers with another contestant, so we’ve been doing a lot of fundraising

with it. We also have to prepare a speech for a workshop we’re doing because we have a full week of workshops before the pageant. I’m actually just on my way to pick up my dress in a few minutes here.

It’s just been a great experience, I’ve already met a few of the other contestants, and they’re wonderful girls, and I’m just excited to meet the other girls as well.

It’s been a lot of work, a lot more than I thought it would be, it’s definitely worth it.

Being from Fort St. John, a northern girl, will you be representing the Northeast region?

They do put you under regional titles, so I don’t know if they put me on northern or if they put me under Lower Mainland. But either way, I still do want to represent Fort St. John, it is my hometown, I don’t live there now, but the support I’ve gotten from people is absolutely remarkable. I feel so blessed to have those people in my life.

It’s so exciting to see such a community come together.Living in Vancouver there’s so many people, you meet tons

of people but it’s not a community like Fort St. John is. So I definitely feel the support I’m getting from the people in Fort St. John.
