Let's Celebrate Our MysteryBy Virginia Carraway Stark

Fraser Lake is a complicated place andit's filled with complicated people andeven more complicated history.

For so many years the region was set

up around mining, but now things arechanging. Primary resources will alwaysbe a key to the region. It is rich in forest-ry and with the pine beetle epidemicthat industry has become more im-portant than ever. As we change ourenvironment we discover more andmore of what lies underneath of theworld we take for granted every day.

Fraser Lake and the entire region isfilled with untold history and mystery.

That's something that I find intriguingabout the area, its aura of mystery. Ifyou're like me, and you keep your earsopen you hear all sorts of stories. Wehave all heard of the tragic stories,missing girls and mourning families,mourning communities as our tight knitregion feels the loss of one of their own.

I find it interesting how much history isburied, vanished, white washed andnever spoken of almost as much as Ifind the tidbits of overheard history fas-cinating. This man who saw a Sas-quatch in a bush, another who swearshe saw a UFO, a lost village never to beseen again with the creation of the dam.Lost artifacts of the people native to thisarea buried under water and never to beseen again.

Nothing about this area is mundane.Much like the fogs that come off thebeautiful lakes at this time of year, eve-rything is shrouded in mystery. I want toexplore the lakes and see the picto-graphs that can only be reached byboat, I want to see the headwaters ofthe Nechako, I want to explore every

trail in this land that seems to have avoice of its own.

Do you have a mystery that you haveseen or heard about in the region? Iwould like to hear your story and if itworks, perhaps write it up into an articleYou can email [email protected] and tellme what secrets you have seen in thelakes, woods and roads of the region.Lets celebrate the wonder of where welive and all of its hidden mystery. It's

There were line-ups on the first day of Advance Voting, and several times throughout the Advance. Threehundred and three ballots were cast at Advance and another 600 on General voting day between 4 pollingstations in Fraser Lake. This was an election that got peoples attention.

In Fort Fraser 385 ballots were cast and in Endako 90, Nithi 50. At theNithi poll station Conservatives won, in Fraser Lake NDP topped, in FortFraser Conservatives won by a narrow margin of 6 votes. The studentvote at FLESS took place on Friday Oct 16th. Elementary students votedNDP, while Secondary voted Liberal. The student vote across Canada at-tracted 680,000 students in 6,000 schools. Their results mirrored the finaloutcome. Students who voted at school, took pains to talk political choiceswith their parents Two classes observed the poll station on Oct 19 andshared how they voted. One boy said he made his choice based on thename he liked most, yet the girls chimed in that they picked the best lead-er. We can vote for real in eight years. - just two elections away.

Story

Lines

Nothing like a FALLfederal electionWritten by Elaine Storey

September began the parade of teachersand students to classrooms with pencils andlunch kits packed full.

It prompted Canadas Geese to gather andpeck in hayfields and paddle nervously onshore-lines honking their coordinates tocamo-clad hunters.

The September equinox was made realwith the demise of a robust forest and agovernment on the cusp of self-imploding.

Both choreographed a struggle throughwind storms, onslaughts of tropical rainand parchment akin to the Sahara Dessert.While difficult to witness, at the end of theday both had succumbed to a lack of warmlove, and life-sustaining nutrients. And onOctober 19th, the tussle was decided -blue was replaced by red and for almost40% of the electorate, hope ruled the day.

By calling the longest election campaignsince 1872, the Prime Minister tested notonly the pocket depths of his opponents,

but also their endurance.

The 78 day campaign was front row centreon every LCD and plasma from coast tocoast. With promises chiselled not in stonebut etched on skins of onions peeled withtears over the garbage can, the opponentssquared off to do battle.

Election promises were no sooner madethan broken. True political ideals and plat-forms took a backseat as personal jabsaimed at the knees, took precedence.

They chimed, HEs Not Ready No sub-stance Hes in way over his head Canhe really run Canadas economy? Doeshe have the experience to run Canada?And the catalyst of HEs Making it easierfor kids to get marijuana.

This was Canadas 42nd general election.While Steven Harper held power for near-ly a decade, he seemed determined to useHIS share of the collective coffers, dis-

torting the role of money over policies.

In a typical 37-day election period, eachparty can spend a maximum of $25 mil-lion. For each additional day, the limit isincreased by 1/37th, or an extra$675,000, meaning an 11-week campaignwould allow parties to spend more than$50 million.

The four days of advance voting incited anunprecedented increase in voter turnout.

Foreshadowed by the advance polling fren-zy, turnout on general voting day on Octo-ber 19th was calculated to be about 68%.Nowhere near the 1958 high of 79.4% thatsaw John Diefenbaker grow his minoritygovernment into the largest majority inCanadian history. His snap election wascalled a mere 9 months after the 1957 cam-paign. Citing the downturn in the econo-my, newly elected Liberal leader, LesterPearson had asked for Diefenbakers resig-nation. His request sparked an emotional

response from the electorate, and theyappeared in droves to support the Progres-sive Conservative leader who ended upwith 208 seats to Pearsons 48.

My early concern in this campaign was thatelectors where voting with their hearts nottheir heads. They were voting againstsomething not for something - and with theheavy Liberal majority, I would say I nailedit. Albeit, I underestimated the power ofthe Ontario vote. Once again they declareda Liberal majority on facebook before we

started counting ballots in BC.

Not to downplay the THEY lost/WE wonimportance, at the end of the day we have aproud country to call homeand thatswhere our loyalties should lay. There was awonderful piece of Canadianism written bya woman named Elizabeth Audy. Accom-panying her article was a picture of out-going Harper hugging incoming Trudeau.(or so it would seem)

The photo did not appear photo-shopped.There were bemused bystanders (check);the hug was reciprocal - each man leaned in(check); there were the friendly back-patsalso reciprocal (check); neither party held alook of distain toward the other (check);the hug was solid (check); both partieswere engaged (check)

Elizabeth Audy wrote a stirring message

starting with the line, I want to share thisimage because this is Canada..We do not livein a country where leaders are violently over-thrown.Our system isnt perfect but we areperfectly Canadian

Great eloquence. As she points outniceto see two leaders embrace one another inreal time. Stirs the cockles of the heart andalmost draws a tear to the unreformed eye.

So in the quest for good journalism, Ireferenced all the other photos of Harperhugging Mulcair, etc. etc. And in each ofthese post-election hugs, he is grimacingand hasthatsteelygrin wehavegrownto rec-ognize -all thefeaturesmissingfrom this hug (above). My research ledme to discover the above picture was takenfollowing the tragedy on Oct 23, 2014.The day after Cpl. Nathan Cirillo wasgunned down at the National War Memo-rial... A day when Harper and many othershad literally been sequestered in their offic-es for their own safety. This hug is one tobring nations together and irrespective ofwhen it was dated, it shows appreciation.

Endako This & That by Audrey ReadMy goodness the Mountain Ash trees are beautiful this year! Big bunches ofred berries and the leaves are so colourful, I do hope they hang on for a goodlong time! All the trees in my yard are out-doing themselves this

year....maybe they are doing their bit to cheer everyone up before everything isjust plain white.****Got the yard all taken care of for the winter, garden all fixed up for the winter

too. Soon the cattle will be heading to the market, Spike the horse will begoing to his new home, our grand daughter Tanis will be his new owner, she ispretty excited. Guess that will leave me with just the bull calves and my twoprecious donkey's, oh yes and Penny the dog. Doesn't sound too exciting doesit? Ah well, life takes sudden changes sometimes and I guess we just have to"go with the flow."****My daughter Shannon & I worked the election poll at the Endako Hall on the19th, we had a good turn out, better than other years I think. A lot of people

having to travel long distances to vote. One lady got her election card wholived between Endako & Fraser Lake and she was supposed to go and vote atsome school in Prince George for goodness sakes! (Crazy, just as well she has moved

back to Switzerland.) Several peoples names had been crossed off the list indicatingthat they had voted at the advance poll when they really hadn't. Also of great interestwas the fact that Walter, my deceased husband voted from heaven I guess....they hadhis name crossed off anyway! We also had a fellow bring his wife's card in that isn't aCanadian citizen! "Elections Canada" really have a LOT of work to do in Ottawa,they are so outdated it is almost laughable! They have no idea what the distances arefrom places here. Doing a bit of their homework would certainly make it a lot easieron the returning officers etc. Well, I guess things might change in the next fouryears....maybe!****

It is nice to be important, but it is more important to be nice!****Daughter Debbie and all her family from McBride were all up and spent Thanksgivingwith the crew from around here. Thanksgiving is such a great time of year, don'thave to worry about getting gifts for everyone...usually stuff that they don't need or even really want!****Had a call from Monique Roy the other day, she is starting a "Widows Club"...it should have a lot of members...goodness knows, there are enougof us around this area now! I believe the first meeting was at her house on Oct. 19, hopefully it will continue.****Hazel Foote from Endako passed away recently, her memorial service was held in the Fraser Lake Legion on October 17. Our sincere condo-lences to her family. In years passed she was very active in the Endako community. May you rest in peace Hazel.****I'm very thankful to my neighbours, Art & Jo Ann for letting me borrow their facilities for butchering chickens, that "chicken plucker" is sure atremendous apparatus let me tell you. It is a tub about the size of a washing machine tub with rubber fingers sticking out all over inside, you killthe chicken, dip it in boiling water, toss them in the plucker and turn it on...In about a minute and a half or two minutes you have two or threechickens plucked clean as a whistle!...Of course if the door flies open it causes quite a lot of excitement too!...And...must not forget Art and hiswater hose...no one is safe within shooting distance, just ask his wife! It was a wonderful sunny day spent with them & Shannon butchering chick-ens. Fifteen in all, that leaves me with two roosters. I wanted to keep only one but we couldn't catch the second one so I guess he will probablydie of old age. Out of the twenty six chicks I bought this spring I only got eight pullets! But that is okay, they will more than keep me in eggs.Their little eggs are very tasty too!****A baby shower was held in the Endako Hall on Oct 17for Ashlee, Lane (Turnbull) & baby Paisley. Many beautiful and useful gifts were receivedfrom the people present. Lots of fun games were played keeping everyone entertained as well as a wonderful lunch served. Congratulations to you

both on your wonderful daughter, my Great Grand Daughter!****Remember, today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday! Have a great day everyone and ..."SMILE, keeps people guessing!

Sandra

SauteurLamoureux& the Cougs

Now (and then)!We are six very dear, very long-time friendswho are profoundly grateful to have grown uptogether in Fraser Lake.Way back when, we were Ellen Wright, Laura-lee Leslie, Cheryl Cannell, Sandra Sauteur,Debby Lang & our Den Mother, Kim Kozicki.We have always been, and always will be,

The Fraser Lake Cougars, (back when cou-gars were just really fast cats) and were proudof it! Many an eyebrow has been raised, and adirty chuckle erupted, when any of us tell oth-ers that, us Cougars are getting togethersoon! Of course, each of us had & still havefriendships & kinships with other people fromthose days, but somehow, the Cougs haveendured.Back in the day, some of us went to school at

the old Community Hall (now the Legion) & inportables, while the New School, (FLESS)was being built. We were among the first grad-uating Class at FLESS, in 1976. Collectively,

here are some of our fondest memories grow-ing up togetherWhen we were girls, we walked through the

woods at Hartman's old place, to the schoolfield, in the dark...eeeek, and Ghost Town,scared the daylights out of us! We built forts tohide from Ralphie (Wright) & his gang... ran upMouse Mountain almost every day... Swimminglessons in the ice water at Robinson's Beach &tubing all over the lake (sans lifejackets) &poking sticks at a bloated, drowned cow,swarming with maggots in the lake (FYI, badidea) The bus trip to Barkerville Clearing

snow off the pond by the point for skating in thedark... Tobogganing down, Zad's Hill, underthe wire fence & landing on the (active) rail-road... Making Chef Boyardees Pizza's afterschool. Peeling fence poles for Ellen's cabinGoing to Brownies, Girl Guides, earning allthose badges Watching movies at Lejac Lunchtime Sock Hops We often wore thesame clothes in different colours & pretendedwe were sisters! What an awesome childhoodwe went through.

As we, grew up, we went through pubertytogether (OMG!) Snowmobiling & horseback

riding at Morley's Field Ah, sweet Dolly, weused to pretend she was a wild mustang; westill think of her whenever we see pinto beans,she was one a gassy horse, lol! The Rangerstrip to Victoria Pajama parties, sleeping un-der the pool table... School Team sports tripsWatching hockey games (well, players)Spending endless hours at the FL Caf & VetsTrading Post, listening to tunes and eatingChinese food & fries & gravy The Grade TenTrain Trip to Vancouver (thank you AGAIN, Mr.Ken Ponsford & Miss Wendy Wilcock, you musthave been out of your minds!!!) Camping atPoolees Point & Forestry Beach Wearingeach others clothes... Ooooohhh, the rituals ofgetting ready for school dances! The RightfulOwners Band (hotties!) We shared LOTS oflaughs, many tears & a few boyfriends (it was asmall pool & we all swam in it!). Its a goodthing we didn't have camera phones, backthen!As we, matured, we grew into womanhoodtogether (some of us stood up for one anotherat some of our weddings). Life took us in differ-ent directions, but each of us have beenblessed with motherhood (some of us hadsuch good times raising our babies together). A

few of us have evolved into grand motherhood,all the while the best of friends Each of usrejoice in one anothers bliss All of us havelost friends; some of us have lost members ofour families; each of us has deeply felt oneanothers losses.These are just a few of so many great memo-ries that we hold close to our hearts (& ourfunny bones); sharing our stories brings tearsto our eyes.Long ago, we realized that its a good idea tokeep close those people you went through theteen years with; they know too much! In this

spirit, we Cougs get together every year for 4glorious days (& 3 very short nights), for ourmuch anticipated, always coveted, CougarDen, and suddenly we are girls, teens & youngwomen againThough its been decades since we left,Home, the connection is still there & were soglad to be making new memories together, still.(Our kids seem to get a kick out of it, too!)Fraser Lake brought us all together, were sograteful that all these years later we still have

that awesome connection We have a speciabond (us cougars), and there is nothing that

compares to our "Den" weekends!Fraser Lake was a great community of kind,generous, resilient people; its a reflection onwho we all are today! It really was the bestplace & we loved growing up there. We had somuch Fun, Freedom, Family & Friendships...

Where are we now?

Ellen (Wright) Walsh & Brian have been mar-ried for 26 years, have a daughter, Eileen & ason, James & live in West Vancouver.

Sandra (Sauteur) Lamoureux & Joe havebeen married 33 years, have a son, Luc, adaughter, Alixe, a grandson, Henri & live inPort Alberni.

The following quesonnaire was handed out at the recent Re -Use Shed meeng in Fraser Lake. There was a good turnout at the

meeng and people formed groups to discuss ideas and soluons about the recent closures of all the sheds across the district.

Members of the Regional District were on hand and spent me with each group, listening to their ideas and taking notes. Regional

District Bulkley Nechako area D Director Mark Parker said, We wanted to address the problems that have arisen at some of thesheds. Public meengs were held as a result of the recent closure of the sheds aer needles were found in a child's toy in the

shed in Smithers. We felt that geng people involved in this discussion would lead to beer awareness.

Parker was pleased with the turnout and agreed his job is to return to the board table with a list of well thought out soluons to

the problem. Soluons ranged from educaon to hiring sta to installing cameras and refusing access to abusers. A suggeson

that received favorable response was for the RDBN to hire a part me person or group who would take on the ownership of the

sheds and monitor them. Another idea was to amalgamate re -use with re-cycling centers in each community.

Unfortunately, the sheds will remain closed unl the RDBN is condent that people will not come to harm by re -using items le in

sheds through the careless generosity of others.

Ideally, the RDBN wants to promote and encourage re-use as it is a fundamental component of good waste management policies

and when done properly results in less garbage to landll. The challenge is how do we do so in a way that does not result in unac-

ceptable risk and liability, supports local recycling businesses and be cost eecve to the taxpayer of the RDBN? Please answer thefollowing quesons and return to the RDBN. Forms may be submied by mail (PO Box 820, Burns Lake, BC, V0J 1E0), fax (250-692-

3305), e-mail ([email protected]) or hand delivered to the Burns Lake oce OR dropped o at the FL Village OFFICE.

1) Do you have ideas on how to ensure inappropriate, dangerous & hazardous materials do not end up in the Re -Use Sheds?

2) Do you have suggesons/ideas on how to address bad and aggressive behavior at RDBN solid waste management facilies in

general and specically associated with the Re-Use Sheds?

3) How does the RDBN ensure that when a product does reach end of life it is taken to an available recycling facility instead of

to an RDBN facility where it is ulmately landlled?

4) Do you have ideas on how good useable materials can be eecvely directed to those that need it the most?

5) Do you have ideas/suggesons on how the RDBN can promote and encourage Re-Use?

6) What are some other things that can be done with re-use materials to minimize the amount of garbage to landll?

7) Do you have any other comments, suggesons or ideas to share?
