Canada Post cuts delivery service
LawsuitexpandsMORE DEFENDANTS have been added to a suit filed by a local man against the RCMP and one of its officers after he suffered a brain injury following an ar-rest made three years ago.
But this time the addition of Mills Memorial Hospital, a local physician and a nurse came after a B.C. Supreme Court application made by the RCMP.
In effect, while Robert Wright is suing the RCMP and Const. Brian Heideman for head injuries he said were the result of excessive force and for negligence in the way he was treated, the RCMP are now saying the medical staff on duty when Wright was brought to the hospital for treatment three times after being arrested in April 2012 are themselves negligent.
“The crown defendants submit that [Wright’s] brain hemorrhage was caused or contributed to by the actions of the proposed third par-ties, Dr. [Christiaan] de Wit, nurse Jane Doe and [Mills Memorial Hospital], for fail-ing to properly assess, diag-nose and treat the plaintiff for his head injury,” reads a Supreme Court application first made by the RCMP last month and granted two weeks ago.
MAYOR CAROL Leclerc says the announcement of Canada Post’s cost-saving end to door-to-door deliv-ery as of next year came as a surprise when its officials requested a private meet-ing at the recent Federation of Canadian Municipalities convention in Edmonton.
“I had no idea that this
was coming,” said Leclerc, who in April had signed a letter on behalf of city coun-cil asking Canada Post to send a representative to a council meeting to explain the impacts.
The letter sprang from a request by the Canadian Union of Postal Workers which is trying to preserve
approximately 8,000 jobs across the country that are scheduled to be phased out as workers retire.
But at the meeting with Canada Post officials at the Edmonton convention, the topic was not arranging a local representative to come present in Terrace, it was in-stead the announcement that
service would be ending.Leclerc also said that
council supported the postal union position and was ex-pecting more discussion.
But Canada Post offi-cials made it clear the union CUPW wasn’t about to de-rail their cost-saving plans, according to the mayor.
“I was expecting them to
give their side of the story about the CUPW letter. So that’s why I was quite sur-prised, I had my head in a different area.”
But Leclerc said she thinks the changes are neces-sary for a company that has gone from being the num-ber one conveyor of letters to a predominantly parcel
service. “I am pleased that nobody is losing a job over it. I think it will bring neigh-bours together. I understand the need to modernize. I ap-preciate that Canada Post is ensuring feedback is avail-able, that they are doing a survey.”

JUNE MENZIES posts a letter to Prime Min-ister Stephen Harper June 11, asking him to improve the lives of aboriginal children.
Prime Minister urged to improveservices for aboriginal childrenBy CECILE FAVRON
“OUR DREAMS Matter Too,” a national walk and letter writ-ing event for aboriginal equal-ity, was held June 11 at George Little Park.
Representatives from the Northwest Social Workers Branch, Knox United Church, Kermode Friendship Centre and other organizations walked from the park to mail letters to Prime Minister Stephen Harp-er asking that he do more for First Nations children.
Organizer Robert Hart of the Northwest Social Work-ers Branch explained that this is the fourth annual event in Terrace and across the country organized by the First Nations Child and Family Caring Soci-ety of Canada.
“What we are doing is writ-ing to Prime Minister Stephen Harper to remind him that, even though he apologized on behalf of Canada for residen-tial schools, he never really did too much about that,” Hart explained, citing small budgets for social services.
Harper authorized residen-tial school cash settlements, Hart said, but he didn’t rec-ognize that settlements don’t nearly address the social dam-age that was done by residen-tial schools nor the social work that has to be done.
“If Harper is going to apol-ogize, he needs to make a so-cial investment in [aboriginal] children,” Hart asserted.
The caring society is a na-tional agency that is working with First Nations people to
re-assert their rights and cre-ate a healthy home, education, and cultural environment. The society promoted more than 31 “Our Dreams Matter Too” walks across the country last year.
Hart’s social services expe-rience has made him especially sensitive to the injustices he believes that the First Nations people are continuing to suffer.
“To be quite honest, we have been blatantly racist,” Hart said. “The Department of Indian Affairs simply under-funds everything. Kids in B.C. do comparably well because they go to public school, but in other areas of the country where there are isolated re-serves [the department] is not funding them well.”
His connection to the cause
came through Cindy Black-stock, the executive director of the caring society, a lo-cal woman of Gitxsan back-ground. This prompted him to organize the walk and letter-sending event in Terrace for each of the past four years.
Hart said that he is not go-ing to stop organizing the event in Terrace until substantial and long-term action is taken by the Canadian government to help aboriginal children.
“This is not something that we should tolerate in Canada,” Hart contended. “We will continue until the recommen-dations of the Truth and Rec-onciliation Commission are followed and until aboriginal kids have the same kind of op-portunity as any other Cana-dian kid.”

RELEASED EARLIER this year, a plan to improve the amount and quality of mostly rental housing for lower income people, se-niors and those with specific needs contains 18 recommendations.
Meant for the City of Terrace, the plan was financed by the Northern Development Initiative Trust and corporations with the as-sistance of the province.
Here are those recommendations:REC 1: Call for more emergency shelter beds because the Ksan Society’s 16-bed emergency shelter reports that it is usually full 90-plus per cent of the year. This would require expanding or creating a new shelter.REC 2: Longer-term housing for women and children fleeing domestic violence. The Ksan Society has 14 beds intended for short term stays but they are often occupied for a longer period of time because no other housing is available.REC 3: Effort to partner with Terrace and District community services to build one or two homes to each house to six young adults. This will help create housing for youth be-tween 19-24 who are too old to remain in foster care.REC 4: Promote programs that subsidize the retns of elderly people and others. And to change the criteria so that more people are eligible.REC 5: The provincial government should consider paying for a detailed study of the current housing situation of those with spe-cial needs.REC 6: The province and the city should consider working with Northwest Commu-nity College to acquire publicly-owned land for student residences.REC 7: Northwest Community College should consider establishing a housing reg-istry for learners looking for housing and Terrace residents looking to rent them ac-commodation.REC 8: Offer financial incentives for home-owners who have secondary suites and who house people receiving rental assistance. Kitimat is currently doing.REC 9: The provincial BC Housing agency should continue to finance the salaries of workers to assist renters in finding accom-modation if they feel they have been discrim-inated against and to provide guidance for renters who are in disputes with landlords.REC 10: Living out allowances paid by large companies bringing in workers for fixed-term projects should not be acceptable as this drives up overall rental costs. Block booking of hotels is preferred to block leasing of ex-isting rental buildings. REC 11: Short stay hostel-type accommoda-tion . The only such accommodation is at the college but that’s only available in July and August. This might be offered by a non-profit group or by a for-profit enterprise.REC 12: Identify serviceable land for resi-dential development.REC 13: Retrofit older buildings by promot-ing programs offering financial assistance for lower income seniors and lower income disabled people.REC 14: Also promote these above programs to property managers and landlords.REC 15: Promote the various financial as-sistance programs available for older adults.REC 16: The province and its various agen-cies and the city should consider paying for a study of seniors housing needs.REC 17: Real estate sales activity and rental rates should be monitored by the city through the B.C. Northern Real Estate Board and the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation.REC 18: Update the housing action plan in 2017.
Housing bythe numbers
By JOSH MASSEY
IT WAS an emphatic press release from the City of Terrace issued the morning of May 28, 2014 under the heading “City of Terrace sells lands to Coast to Coast Holdings Ltd.”
In it the city revealed it had sold a 2.4 acre lot it owned on the corner of Kenney and Park for $951,000 – double the minimum price it had set of $450,000 – to Calgary-based develop-er Coast to Coast Hold-ings.
“The sale of this undeveloped land will help to provide more housing for our commu-nity,” stated then-mayor Dave Pernarowski in the release.
But now, just over a year after the sale, the developer has delayed an awaited housing project indefinitely.
“The production is on hold until the mar-ket economy is ready,” said Coast to Coast of-ficial Kim Gregoire in a short email statement last week.
And with that an-nouncement comes a halt, even if temporar-ily, to the City of Ter-race’s cornerstone effort at being able to provide lower cost housing within its boundaries.
That’s because the sale was carried out under the city policy of only selling certain of its lands to develop-ers who said they would include a component of lower cost housing as part of any larger devel-opment.
A 14-page bylaw which accompanied the land sale set out a requirement for 20 per cent of all apartments in the planned 105-unit complex to be rented at 20 per cent below nor-mal market rates.
But no timeline for development was stipu-lated in the sales agree-ment.
Even last summer Coast to Coast an-nounced it was shifting to a phased in approach, the first being two 12-unit apartment build-ings.
Those buildings, which were never start-ed, would have provid-ed at least four lower
rent apartments, based on the bylaw adopted by city council.
If actual construction of accommodation to be rented out at below market rates is on hold, there’s also been no ac-tion on another city ef-fort at providing afford-able housing.
That was through the creation last November of an affordable housing fund using $500,000 of the sale proceeds of the Kenney and Park land sale.
The idea was that the money could be used
for everything from buying land for hous-ing to waiving service fees on development, to partnering with devel-opers.
So far, city council-lor Stacey Tyers said no solid plan has been developed to use the money.
“Nobody has ap-proached us. We don’t have the staffing capaci-ty to go out and actively encourage or get people to the table,” said Tyers.
Along with council-lor Lynne Christian-sen, Tyers sits on the
city-sponsored housing committee.
“If the proposal is good I can’t see any rea-son why we wouldn’t partner,” Tyers added of plans that might be sub-mitted to the city.
While Coast to Coast may not be building the expected affordable housing showcase as envisioned by the city, it has been involved in a project just north of the Park and Kenney prop-erty.
Called Kenney Gar-dens because of its lo-cation on Kenney, the
six-unit higher-end townhouse develop-ment carries price tags starting at $339,000.
Workers finishing at that location last week said the plan is to sell several of the townhous-es before proceeding with one of the 12-unit apartment buildings on the Kenney and Park property.
Materials on the Kenney and Park prop-erty are meant for fram-ing one of the planned buildings, they said.
Coast to Coast has also turned the Kenney and Park project over to a Quebec-based in-vestment company with which it has a close business relationship.
ROI Investments generally supplies the financing for construc-tion-ready develop-ments undertaken by Coast to Coast, ROI president Phillipe Ger-main said in January of this year.
He had also ex-pressed hope of start-ing at least a few of the planned 12-unit apart-ment buildings on Ken-ney and Park by this spring.
German said then the company was drawn to the area by the prospect of growth spurred by a liquefied natural gas in-dustry.
ROI has also pur-chased land elsewhere in the city, including the parcel on Park that’s right to the east of the Park and Kenney cor-ner lot. The company is promoting a 72-unit apartment complex there.
The two locations housed the provincial highways ministry works yard
And in Kitimat, eight 12-unit build-ings are being planned. Workers at Kenney Gardens said last week they are poised to begin demolishing the current housing at the Kitimat site. But progress had been held up because of the three-month long Kitimat munici-pal worker strike which ended just last week.
Gregoire, who speaks for ROI as well as for Coast to Coast, said ROI will provide an update on this proj-ect in September.

A6 www.terracestandard.com OPINION Wednesday, June 17, 2015 Terrace Standard
In her memoir, Sister to Courage, Wanda Rob-son writes of their 1926 Halifax home having a
“front room” with a parlour beyond.
The term front room stirred memories of my early years on a Saskatchewan farm. Sud-denly what had been an every-day designation in my child-hood seemed odd.
My carpenter grandfather who immigrated to Canada from Sweden in 1907, built our two-storey house with three bedrooms upstairs, one down, a kitchen, a sizeable pantry, and a front room.
In our front room we listened to the console radio, read, played Monopoly, or visited with any relatives who came for several days. (Any visit-ing involving coffee or foods happened at the kitchen table.) Our parents’ house rules dis-couraged roughhousing ev-erywhere but especially in the front room primarily for its lack of free space.
Were we the only family to have a front room? I wouldn’t know. Our visits to neighbours were few if at all existent.
We were a stay-at-home fam-ily. My father was even more introverted than I am and he did any driving. Mom loved
company, but with no way to drive herself hither or yon, we didn’t get to see how many of our counterparts lived.
Consequently, I grew up with an insecurity complex thinking our home was “less than” that of our neighbours.
I remember my classroom teacher visiting once to speak with Mom. I was morti ed she’d witness the simplicity of our home: the homemade kitchen table with its linoleum top, the washstand with the hand basin.
I had the notion others’ homes had running water and proper bathrooms. Little did I know.
In truth in many ways we were better off, as I learned
during our school’s 50th re-union. That’s when I found out some of our classmates packed sandwiches spread only with lard . We had butter, real jams, peanut butter, hon-ey, or meats like fried chicken or bologna.
One way we were much bet-ter off was the condition of everything we owned. Uphol-stered furniture wasn’t thread-bare.
The piano had no chipped keys. (Plenty of farm families had no piano and couldn’t af-ford piano lessons.) Kitchen linoleum had no worn patches showing lumber underneath.
The front room, though, embarrassed me for its sev-eral braided rugs and one long runner from kitchen to hall leading upstairs. Lacking a vacuum cleaner, those rugs were my biggest chore every Saturday.
In a tight circle around a small central table stood my Craig piano, the Philco radio, a buffet with a full width mir-ror harbouring Mom’s special occasion dishes, a wind-up gramophone anchored by a formidable collection of vinyl records from Harry Lauder to Wilf Carter, its top hidden by a sprawling Christmas cactus older than I was, an uphol-
stered sofa and two matching chairs. Although in perfect condition, Mom kept them covered by washable Navaho blankets, a welcome touch in winter.
High above the sofa a wide window of stained glass in a fan design of blues, greens, reds and yellows lent the room a glow when morning sun beamed through. Through the other window, facing south, sunshine peeked past a win-dowsill of blooming gerani-ums.
The room was unpreten-tious, but everything in it was in good condition, paid for, nothing threadbare, dented or broken.
Google “front room” and you’ll nd it’s another way of saying living room, sitting room, or parlour.
The Geffrye Museum in London de nes front room as “a symbol of status and respectability, announcing that no matter how poor you were, if the front room looked good then you were ‘decent’ people.”
Looking back I appreciate our parents taught us to live within our means and care for our possessions.

ESTABLISHED APRIL 27, 1988
OF all the 94 recommendations contained in the federal Truth and Reconciliation commission’s report outlining the history and effects of residential schools on aboriginal people in Canada, the most impor-tant relate to education.
In its call for improved education for aboriginal peoples the commis-sion is not alone. Studies over the years have pointed to the gap be-tween educational opportunities for aboriginals compared to others.
While much has been done (in B.C. the gap is closing between the percentage of aboriginal youth grad-uating from high school compared to other students) the overall result re-mains that a considerable number of Canadians are improperly prepared for the complex nature of modern society.
Education is the great leveller of any society. From a common base of reading, writing, math, geography, knowledge of a country’s history and its peoples comes the opportu-nity for individual achievement and ultimately, success.
Former Assembly of First Nations leader Shawn Atleo said as much in 2012: “When our young people do complete high school, they’re twice as likely to get a job. When they graduate from university, their earn-ings triple.”
How to change the way things are now will continue to be the subject of debate and study. But to waste the potential of hundreds of thousands of Canadians cannot continue.

There’s far more to our history than white men
Terrace Standard Wednesday, June 17, 2015 VIEWPOINTS www.terracestandard.com A7
As we struggle to digest and honour the Truth and Reconciliation Committee, let’s shift
our historical focus away from the white men we hold up as pio-neers and think about the First Nations people who have been in our region since time immemo-rial. One of the reasons we have remained silent about residential school is because we have sys-tematically marginalized aborigi-nal people and excluded them from our history.
Look at Terrace. Our largest community festival is Riverboat Days, a celebration of the stern-wheelers that brought early Eu-ropean settlers to the region. We don’t talk about how these set-tlers were able to pre-empt land in the region because traditional seasonal rounds to harvest fish and berries, as opposed to year-round settlement, were not recog-nized by the government, and so the entire region was considered vacant and in need of settlement.
We don’t remember that set-tlement took place because First Nations communities had been decimated by introduced dis-
eases, including smallpox, which shrank their membership and shook their cultural foundations.
We don’t think about how the First Nations people who sur-vived were forced into tiny res-ervations chosen by the federal government, allowing the rest of the land to be considered ‘open’ for pre-emption.
Instead of discussing these complex, difficult, critical sub-jects, our community celebrates George Little, the white man who pre-empted the land that became the core of Terrace. Sure, Little was an enterprising businessman who loomed large in the narrative of Terrace history, but does he de-serve the sole weight of Terrace historical attention?
Our town remembers Little through the preservation and cen-tral placement of his house (to the tune of over a million dollars in relocation and upkeep costs), through the naming of streets and parks, through a memorial at the crest of the Sportsplex hill, and through the constant mention of him in our local history narrative.
So, let’s disrupt this narra-tive. Let’s remember Emma
and Charles Nelson, Tsimshian people of the robin, who lived in Kitsumkalum. Emma Nelson (née Starr) held a high name in the Gisbutwada (killer whale) clan, and was the matriarch of the important House of Lagaax. Her husband, Charles Nelson, who held the name Xpilaxha, was a leader of the Ganhada (raven) clan.
The Nelsons assisted early Eu-ropean settlers through a general store ran out of Kitsumkalum. In
addition to providing food, hos-pitality, and local knowledge, the Nelsons invested in Little’s saw-mill—apparently without recom-pense.
Let’s remember Eliza Thorn-hill, née Wright, a high-ranking Gitselasu woman whose trapline edged what is now known as Sockeye Creek. In a fascinating demonstration of agency, Eliza claimed the land she would have traditionally been entitled to use between the two bridges through her English husband Tom Thorn-hill.
As a white male, Tom was the kind of settler the govern-ment was looking for when they opened the area up for pre-emp-tion.
Eliza hunted, fished, and trapped on the land that became Thornhill. Tom grew a large veg-etable and flower garden, selling produce to the sternwheelers that stopped at Thornhill Landing to pick up cordwood. Tom’s health was weak, and so Eliza, who had local knowledge anyway, took on the more traditionally masculine role in a pioneer couple.
One of the few places in the
region named after an aboriginal woman – Eliza Creek – was of-ficially renamed the relatively ge-neric ‘Sockeye Creek’ by 1930. In 1978, pioneer historian Floyd Frank lamented the renaming of the creek, stating that ‘there’s only a few left that know these things.’ Without people to re-member her, he implied, Eliza’s story would fade. When we fail to recognize – and celebrate – the depth and resilience of First Nations history in the Terrace region, we do ourselves a disser-vice. We also marginalize those stories, ensuring that First Na-tions people’s history is excluded from our community history.
This allows us to disengage from the horror of residential schools, and to see First Nations people as outside of our commu-nity, as something other than us.
This is what has led us to the present, where the Truth and Rec-onciliation Commission was nec-essary to bring to light the injus-tices that have been consistently meted against aboriginal people in Canada.

LUCY MCRAE and Breanne Wilken, having just presented a petition to Rio Tinto Alcan to install scrubbers in its new smokestacks at its rebuilt smelter to capture S02 before it goes into the air.
S02 scrubbers do make senseDear Sir:
We put on our shoes, we go outside to play. We admire the butterflies, and the birds. The trees, mountains and river.
Amongst the river currents my little three year-old points at some pink salmon that swim by. I say “they are beautiful,
aren’t they?”She replies almost without
thinking. “All life is beautiful mommy.”
It was at that exact moment when my heart sunk into my stomach. My precious little three-year old, innocent and sweet, can see the beauty in
the ecosystem surrounding us. Alive, and healthy. The eco-system that wouldn’t be this alive and healthy if Alcan had not installed scrubbers many decades ago.
And the very same ecosys-tem that I hope my daughter can admire with her future
children. If older technology was ca-
pable of doing the right thing, why on earth isn’t the ad-vanced technology capable of doing the same?
Are we becoming more ig-norant and selfish?

KELSEY WIEBE
An open letter to:Rio Tinto Alcan Shareholders Hello:
As the former Chief Medical Health Officer with Northern Health and a resident within the air shed Rio Tinto Alcan (RTA) is planning to use as a repository for the waste Sulphur Dioxide (SO
2)
its updated smelter in Kitimat will produce, I have watched the company’s management of this issue with great interest.
RTA has been given a permit to emit up to 42 metric tonnes of SO
2 into the air shed on a daily ba-
sis, up from the current permitted level of 27 metric tonnes per day. That’s a lot of sulphur dioxide!
SO2 is toxic to humans at high doses but the
jury is out as to the harm it does at lower ambient levels. Everyone agrees that SO
2 air pollution can
cause airway spasm, induce asthma attacks, worsen chronic bronchitis among people with pre-existing respiratory problems, and lower the threshold for exercise induced asthma. But it may be significant-ly more serious than that.
Although the permit is currently the subject of an appeal, RTA was able to convince the B.C. Min-istry of Environment that simply raising the height of its stacks would ensure that current permissible levels are seldom exceeded using a computer model of air dispersion based on data gathered mostly in 2008.
Using the model, RTA consultants have created scenarios predicting likely peak exposure levels on the ground at a variety of sites in and around Kitimat and extending down the valley to Terrace. They have even attempted to predict the expected number of episodes of airway spasm based on crude population data in each of these sites of interest.

TERRACE RURAL AREA RESIDENTSPLEASE PRACTICE WATER CONSERVATION
The Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine is reminding residents of the Terrace Rural Area Water system of a few regular requirements to assist with water con-servation. Though these requirements are in place year round, periods of hot, dry weather make these requirements that much more important. We ask that residents commit to using water wisely as the warm weather continues.
Please keep in mind your water service is for resi-dential use, including irrigation of lawns or gardens. Watering of your lawn or garden should occur before 8:00 am and after 7:00 pm, odd numbered houses on odd numbered days of the month only and even num-bered houses on even numbered days of the month only. No irrigation of lawn or domestic gardens be-tween the hours of 8:00 am – 7:00 pm is permitted except by way of hand watering using a garden hose or a hand held container. Please ensure that water is not wasted by allowing it to run onto a driveway, road or other surface including an adjacent property.
Fixing any leaking pipes or connection in your home will also help conserve the community’s water supplies.
For some tips on how to conserve your water usage or for current updates, please see our website at www.rdks.bc.ca
Thank you for your cooperation.

RTA owners take noticeAs part of the per-
mitting process, RTA was required to consult with the public and in doing so they painted a reassuring picture sug-gesting that any human health effects from the increased SO
2 emis-
sions would be minimal and transient at worst.
But I am far from reassured. I also under-stand that an air dis-persion model is just a model: every conclu-sion based on the mod-el, including projected SO
2 levels and health
effects no matter how many charts and graphs are created, is specula-tive and only as good as the model itself.
Here are some of my concerns:
1. The air dispersion model does not factor in or consider the possible and probable impacts of climate change. Will the foreseeable future include hotter dryer summers with more frequent inversions and
less wind dispersion than in 2008? Will there be more forest fires in the Northwest with am-bient smoke pollution interacting with and changing the charac-teristics and behaviour of emitted SO
2 with re-
spect to humans and the environment?
At the very least, consideration of these possibilities could have expanded the range of predicted effects and improved the quality of the data by being more realistic about its uncer-tainty.
2. The RTA consul-tants have summarized the evolving science of SO
2 toxicity according
to the principle that “the absence of proof of an effect constitutes proof of no effect” and have confined the discus-sion to monitoring the relatively minor effects where causation is cer-tain. However the US EPA Advisory Commit-tee which is extensively
referred to in the Sul-phur Dioxide Techni-cal Assessment Report (STAR) prepared by the RTA consultants (p50, vol.2) states clearly that the evidence is in-sufficient to infer the presence or absence of a causal relationship be-tween short term expo-sure to ambient SO
2 and
cardiovascular mortal-ity as well as between long term exposure and respiratory disease mor-tality, non respiratory morbidity, and overall mortality.
It occurs to me that a corporation wishing to promote tobacco use in the late 1940s would have likely produced a very similar scientific assessment acknowl-edging the relatively minor effects of throat irritation and cough while pointing to the lack of hard evidence in relation to the scourges of heart disease and lung cancer that took decades of research to confirm.
3. The consultants have neglected to con-sider the variability among the human re-ceptors (people) who will be exposed to the SO
2 emissions. It is
well known that popula-tions with different de-
mographics, social and economic status, and preexisting health status respond differently to the same levels of stress whether the stress is a toxin, a pollutant or a virus.
There is much un-certainty in the current understanding of the health effects of long term exposure to ambi-ent SO
2 and there are
good reasons to think that they may be more severe than the RTA consultants have pre-dicted. It will be virtu-ally impossible to ad-equately document or respond to these more serious and/or long term impacts given the small size of the population at risk. The effects are likely to be cumulative and the damage done long before it can be detected in a conclusive way.
I urge you to ensure that the company you own takes this into con-sideration by installing the SO
2 scrubbers that
are needed to reliably protect the public’s health in relation to SO
2 generated by the RTA smelter operation in Kitimat.

FORMER CITY councillor Olga Power, left, with former Terrace chief administrative of cer Ron Poole and current Terrace chief administra-tive of cer Heather Avison at Government House in Victoria June 9 on the occasion of Poole receiving the Lieutenant Governor’s Silver Medal for Excellence in Public Administration.
Former city of cialreceives top awardFORMER CITY of Terrace chief administrative of cer Ron Poole was awarded the Lieutenant-Governor’s Silver Medal for Excellence in Public Administration at a June 9 ceremony at Govern-ment House in Victoria.
The award is sponsored by the Lieutenant Gov-ernor and the Institute of Public Administration of Canada and recognizes an individual’s accomplish-ments in public administration.
Poole has spent 30 years in public administra-tion in the north, working in the northeast before coming to Terrace in January 1999.
He left Terrace in 2011 for a similar position in Kitimat and left there this June to be the top admin-istrator in Mission, B.C.
During his time in Terrace Poole helped estab-
lish the rst public administration certi cate pro-gram at Northwest Community College for First Nations and other local government employees.
Present at the June 9 ceremony were former Terrace city councillors Olga Power and Marylin Davies, former Terrace planner David Trawin who is now the top civic of cial in Kamloops and for-mer Terrace re chief Peter Weeber who is now the chief administrative of cer in Mackenzie.
Also present were current Terrace chief admin-istrative of cer Heather Avison, current corporate administrator Alisa Thompson, Kitimat-Stikine regional district administrator Bob Marcellin, of -cials from the District of Kitimat, including mayor Phil Germuth, and of cials from Gitlaxt’aamiks (New Aiyansh) in the Nass Valley.
Cafe to open in Nass villageTHE NASS Valley vil-lage of Gitwinksihlkw, known for the pedes-trian suspension bridge which spans the Nass River, will soon have a cafe and gift shop.
The announcement follows a successful ap-plication made to the Nisga’a Lisims Govern-ment’s Nisga’a Busi-ness Development Fund
for $218,000 in support of the project.
A modular build-ing will be owned and leased by Gitwinksi-hlkw and the operation of the business will be by Gitwinksihlkw lo-cal entrepreneur Sally Nyce who currently operates a home-based business, indicates a Nisga’a Lisims press
release.Nyce was selected
after the village asked for expressions of inter-est from members of the community.
An excerpt from the village’s business plan describes the planned operation:
“The Welcome House Café and Gifts will be a moderately
priced 20-seat café of-fering a small menu of indigenous inspired foods.”
Specialty soups and sandwiches with week-ly specials will be on the menu to meet the needs of the local com-munities.
Local crafts and jams will be sold as part of the gift shop com-
ponent as well as the works of local carvers and artisans.
Also in the works are plans to sell a line of clothing called Lizard Wear which takes its name from Gitwinksi-hlkw which translates as “people of the liz-ard’s habitat.”
This won’t be the rst time a cafe has op-
erated in Gitwinksihlkw – a previous venture ad-jacent to the suspension bridge is now home to the Wilp Wilxo’oskwhl Nisga’a Institute, the post secondary institu-tion in the Nass Valley.
The pedestrian-only 400-foot long suspen-sion bridge crossing the Nass River was at one time the primary con-
nection to and from Git-winksihlkw which is lo-cated on the north side of the river. All matter of goods and supplies were walked across.
A pedestrian-only bridge has existed at the location for approxi-mately 400 years.
A one-lane vehicle bridge was built in the 1990s.

Bevan returned as Kitselas chief
ANNA KILLEN PHOTO
LATEASHA MOORE casts her ballot at the Kitselas administration building June 12.
By ANNA KILLEN
JOE BEVAN will stay on as chief councillor of Kitselas after being re-elected in last week’s polls.
The June 12 election also saw six council candidates elected – that’s one more council spot than in previous years because of an in-crease in Kitselas’ pop-ulation.
Wilfred Bennett Sr. was returned as coun-cillor, as was Clarisa Spencer, Judy Gerow, and Gerald Seymour. Wilfred (Web) Bennett Jr. was not returned.
New to council will be Roxanne Ridler and Lynn Wright.
The other council candidates were Wil-liam (Bill) Bolton, Dawn L.E. (Wale) Der-rick, Shirley Gray, Cora Kennedy, Alfred S. McDames, Lloyd Mc-Dames Sr., Brian Sey-mour, Patricia Squires, Victor Wright, and Bo-nita (Bonnie) Young-Mercer.
Bevan, who was rst elected chief in 2013 and followed Judy Ge-row, ran against Glenn
Bennett, William (Bill Bolton), and Brian Sey-mour.
Bennett, who has also been a chief coun-cillor in the past, was Bevan’s closest chal-lenger in the 2013 elec-tion.
In his election state-ment, Bevan said one of his short term goals is to x the Kitselas Hall
to get it functioning as a meeting place, with a longer term goal of de-veloping a community centre for all residences in the Terrace area.
“I will continue to press our rights and title on our traditional terri-tory, and also, continue work with the govern-ments of the day to move us towards being
a self-suf cient, self-governing nation,” he continued.
The Kitselas First Nation of cially opened a new water system last month at its Gitaus sub-
division east of Terrace on Hwy16.
Its development cor-poration has also been active at the Skeena Industrial Park located just south of the airport.

Countdown to Independence
Wright did undergo a CT scan at Mills upon his third arrival at the hospital within an ap-proximate nine-hour period April 21-22, 2012.
He was then quickly flown to Vancouver for surgery at Royal Co-lumbian Hospital in New Westminster.
Wright has been un-able to work since and requires constant care and supervision.
His suit against the RCMP and Heide-man, who has since been transferred out of the detachment to the Okanagan, is scheduled to be heard next Febru-ary.
Speaking yester-day from Vancouver, Wright’s lawyer, Scott Stanley, said the re-sponse of medical staff at Mills would first de-pend upon information they received from po-lice when his client was brought in.
“It was the respon-sibility of the RCMP to make sure the nurse and the doctor knew exactly what was going on,” said Stanley.
In a response to the RCMP application, law-yers for de Wit say the RCMP “misstated the facts as set out in medi-cal records” by stating de Wit “noted that his impression was signs of head injury and pro-gression” when Wright was brought back to the hospital a second time.
“There is no evi-dence Dr. de Wit formed the impression the plaintiff exhibited signs of head injury and progression, rather,
Dr. de Wit charted that “signs of HI [presum-ably head injury] and progression [were] dis-cussed with RCMP,” the lawyers added.
Further, de Wit’s statement indicates he was not the doctor who attended Wright on his third visit to the hospi-tal.
Wright did receive stitches for a laceration to his head during his first visit to the hospi-tal’s emergency room.
Wright’s contact with the RCMP on April 21, 2012 began in the early evening hours when he was pulled
over by a police officer.He showed signs of
impairment, was arrest-ed and taken to the de-tachment, court records show.
It was in a cell at the detachment that Wright suffered a head injury which, he suit states, was caused when “Heideman violently, unexpectedly and neg-ligently threw [Wright] to the ground, causing the plaintiff’s head to strike a concrete bench, metal toilet and/or the cell floor ….”
Terrace RCMP de-tachment commander Inspector Dana Hart
requested an outside investigation of the in-cident which was un-dertaken by the New Westminster Police De-partment.
Information gath-ered was then sent to crown counsel officials recommending one charge be laid against a constable.
Crown counsel law-yers declined, saying there was not enough evidence.
“Although it was the opinion of a neurosur-geon that Mr. Wright’s more serious brain in-jury was not a result of trauma occurring in
his dealing with police, even if it had been the result of police action, it would not render those actions unlawful in the circumstances of this case,” said the pro-vincial criminal justice branch in what it called a “clear statement” re-leased concerning the situation.
“Given that the Crown cannot prove that the force used by police in dealing with Mr. Wright was either unnecessary or exces-sive, there is no sub-stantial likelihood of conviction [against the police officer] on any offence in these circum-stances,” the statement added.
And Crown counsel lawyers also declined to charge Wright for im-paired driving offences, saying that because of the actions of the RCMP, there was little likelihood of a convic-tion.
Wright’s suit is scheduled to be heard in Supreme Court next February.

Doing donutsONE OF the incidents responded to by RCMP officers last week was that of a person on a dirt bike doing donuts on the greens at the Skeena Valley Golf and Country Club.
“Investigation determined that a 17 year-old boy was the person on the dirt bike,” said Terrace RCMP in a daily log of activity last week. “A resolution was reached with parents and golf course,” it said.

Postal payroll reductionto come from attrition
STAFF PHOTO
COMMUNITY MAILBOXES such as this one on the bench will replace door-to-door delivery in the area beginning next year.
Canada Post is say-ing it will reduce its workforce by not hiring replacements as people leave or retire.
Skeena – Bulkley Valley NDP MP Na-than Cullen says he’s opposed to the end of door-to-door service.
“I believe that we should be looking for best practices and ex-amples in other coun-tries who have success-fully maintained their home delivery. There are many ways that Canada Post could in-novate, become more dynamic, and even in-crease its revenues, all while maintaining the proud service it has offered to Canadians since day one,” said Cullen.
Canada Post has 41 employees in Terrace, including part time and casual people. Included on its local payroll are what it calls 23 delivery agents on full and part time delivery routes with seven people des-
ignated as relief carri-ers.
The exact number of jobs to be eliminated in Terrace isn’t yet known.
In all, Canada Post delivers to approxi-mately 8,200 addresses in Terrace, Thornhill and area either door-to-door in built up areas, by community mail-boxes in newer subdivi-
sions or to community-style mailboxes in rural areas.
Of those 8,200 ad-dresses, 5,390 are now on door-to-door routes which will be eliminat-ed next year.
Canada Post has said it will provide door-to-door service for people who are physically un-able to get to a commu-
nity mailbox.But that hasn’t
stalled pushback from some municipalities and advocacy groups, including a federal lawsuit which has been launched by the postal worker’s union with support from various groups representing re-tired and handicapped citizens.

Teen girl propositioned by van driverTERRACE RCMP are looking for more in-formation following a report of a man proposi-tioning a teen girl June 9.
The incident, which took place in the park-ing lot of the Tim Hor-tons on Keith Ave. June 9 also has police reminding the public, speci cally women of all ages, that personal
safety is important.On Tuesday June 9
at approximately 8 p.m. a 14-year-old girl was walking through the Tim Hortons parking lot on Keith Ave when a man in a blue van made contact with the girl.
She ignored him. He then asked her if she wanted to make some money.
The girl continued
to ignore the man and approached a woman driver in another car and asked for assistance. The man drove off.
In this incident the girl did the right thing and approached another person to ask for help, says Terrace RCMP Const. Angela Rabut.
“Personal safety is very important and the best defence to protect
yourself from becom-ing a victim of a crime. Educate and protect yourself,” she said.
The vehicle is de-scribed as a navy blue minivan, very shiny and newer with a roof rack holding items. An item on the roof rack may have been red.
The front passenger seat may have a red rope attached to the headrest.
There was no report of the licence plates on the vehicle.
The man is described as Caucasian, 25 to 35 years of age with au-burn wavy hair, two or three inches in length. He has a well-groomed beard.
“This incident was reported as soon as it happened on Tuesday night,” said Rabut.
“If you see or know of a vehicle or person matching the descrip-tion provided, let your police know at 250-638-7400.” The Crime Stoppers number is 1-800-222-TIPS,
Rabut said self awareness and aware-ness of your surround-ings is important in not becoming a victim of a crime.
“Use your sixth sense. Gut instinct. Your intuition is a powerful subconscious insight into situations and peo-ple. All of us, especially women, have this gift, but very few of us pay attention to it.
“Avoid a person or a situation which does not feel safe – you’re probably right,” Rabut explained.
ONE OF the largest pav-ing projects seen here in recent years continues with the prime contrac-tor doing the work at night to reduce traf c problems.
LB Paving of Smith-ers, which is af liated with local company Terrace Paving, is put-ting new top layer of as-phalt on 8km of Hwy16 beginning in Thorn-hill and running along Hwy16/Keith Ave. until the Sande Overpass and then starting again on Hwy16 to the west end of Terrace.
“Drivers can expect single lane alternating traf c, with up to 20 minute delays. Most work is being done at night, between 7 p.m. and 7 a.m., to help avoid peak traf c times and limit delays,” said local highways ministry of -cial Darrell Gunn.
On top of the Hwy16 work, several side roads are being repaved in Thornhill, including portions of Thornhill Frontage Road North, Thornhill Frontage Road South, and Old Lakelse Lake Drive.
“Some roads in the Kleanza area will also be resurfaced with re-cycled asphalt,” said Gunn.
The project comple-tion date is scheduled for early July.

In fact, Johnny, who has been charged with manslaughter, has been remanded in custody, not detained, by con-sent.
She has yet to have a bail hearing.

ÉCOLE JACK Cook, the independent francophone school adjacent to Kiti K'Shan Elementary, held their sixteen-year reunion and open house last week. They invited past students and staff going back to the beginnings of the school in 1998.
Jack Cook was started in the Kiti K'Shan build-ing (now closed) for students whose parents first language is French. The school hosts elementary students from kindergarden to Grade 7 who then continue on to mainly English-language instruction at Skeena Middle School.
Johanne Langlois, the first principal of Jack Cook and one of the founding staff members of the school, spoke at the reunion assembly.
“I have worked in many francophone schools and I have found that the level of French here is really excellent,” Langlois said of the students in the school.
When Jack Cook first began 16 years ago, Lan-glois explained, there were only 14 students and
two classes, but that number has grown to 36 stu-dents this year. They have even had their highest number for kindergarten enrolment yet with nine students enrolled for next September, according to current principal Renée Syvret.
As for the reunion, it was a longtime dream that was finally realized when the school received fund-ing from two francophone organizations in BC.
“We had been wanting to do something like this for a while, but now the opportunity came up,” ex-plained Syvret.
Both the Assembly of Francophone Retirees and Seniors of B.C. (AFRACB) and the Francophone Association of the Northwest (AFFNO) provided funding for the event. Both organizations work to promote French cultural activities in British Co-lumbia. AFFNO especially works in collaboration with schools to promote French.
At the reunion were the staff members who helped start the school and students who had moved on to Skeena and Caledonia after attending Jack Cook.

FATHER TERRY Brock of the Sacred Heart Parish, the lon-gest-standing Catholic priest in the commu-nity, is leaving for a new position in Prince Rupert.
Brock's departure comes as the Roman Catholic Parish cel-ebrated their hundredth year two Sundays ago.
A new priest will join the Terrace church to start the next hundred years off, said Brock of the church’s future. Brock's replacement, Father Xavier, is from India, but has been a pastor in Canada for five years.
Brock's move to the Annunciation Parish in Prince Rupert after over a decade in Ter-race came at the request of the area’s bishop Ste-phen Jensen in Prince George.
“[Father Stephen Jensen] asked me to move to Prince Ru-pert and, out of obedi-ence and respect to the bishop, I agreed to go,” Brock explained of his pending move.
Father Brock has had the care of the Ter-race Parish for the past 13 years, but it is Father Stephen Jensen's job to coordinate all the par-
ishes in northern B.C.Brock said it is dif-
ficult to find clergy members to staff all the churches across the region. His move to Prince Rupert is to fill a vacancy there, while the new priest will come to Terrace to be-gin his service.
Brock will become the dean of the region and will coordinate the other priests in the area in addition to working in his new position in Rupert.
His position as dean will bring him back to town every six weeks or so to check in on the Terrace parish, he said.
As for Brock's ex-tended stay in Terrace, he explained that most priests only stay in a single parish for seven to 10 years before a new priest is rotated in.
“I got an extra bonus out of this one,” Brock joked of his 13-year stay in Terrace.
Brock said that his time in Terrace really brought him closer to the community and he speculated that this might even be the town in which he wants to retire.
“Terrace has really become home for me,” he said.
Brock cherishes the experience of watch-ing the kids he met here
years ago grow into young adults.
“It is like watching
your own spiritual chil-dren grow up,” he said, mentioning that it will
be hard to leave his pa-rishioners in Terrace.
The church has
undergone immense changes under his lead-ership as Terrace has grown over the years.
“When I came the church was in need of lots of renovations,” Brock said.
In addition to reno-vations, the church has been made accessible for people in wheel-chairs and they have also installed a hearing loop for the deaf.
“We made the church more inclu-sive,” Brock said of the changes.
He continued that the Sacred Heart Par-ish has become very involved with other churches in Terrace and the ministerial connec-tion has grown between the churches. The parish has led events such as the Prayer of Christian Unity last January that brought together over half a dozen churches in Terrace “like a Chris-tian family,” described Brock.
“What brings me joy is the growth of the par-ish while I have been here,” Brock reflected on his work in Terrace.
Ninety per cent of Father Terry's service as a priest has been in northwestern British Columbia. Originally from New York, Brock came to Canada in 1977 as a layperson – a
youth volunteer for the church.
While he was vol-unteering in Prince George, Brock ex-plained, he felt the call-ing to become a priest and that began his 27-year career. Over his 38 years in Canada, Brock served in Prince George at the Sacred Heart Ca-thedral before serving in Terrace and Kitimat.
His career lead him far away from home as he is signed on as a diocesan priest and has committed himself to serving the northwest.
“I felt called by God to become a priest and I never thought about how far I was from home. I did have a little doubt at one point, but it passed like the morn-ing mist,” Brock de-scribed of his career in British Columbia.
“When you leave home, you will receive many homes, and that is what I have found here.”
Father Terry Brock’s last ceremonies with the Sacred Heart Par-ish were special events to mark the centenary year.
The parish’s cente-nary celebration began with two Holy Hours – an hour of prayer – and Sunday held the cel-ebrations of the parish’s hundredth year.

Renowned artisthas show atNisga’a museumBy MARGARET SPEIRS
NISGA’A ARTIST and carver Norman Tait’s latest artwork is show-ing at an exhibition of his work at the Nisga’a Museum this summer.
Finding a Voice: The Art of Norman Tait, is the second exhibition of his work in his long career.
“He is a world-re-nowned Nisga’a carver and artist with a signi -cant amount of decades in terms of Nisga’a art,” says museum assistant curator Zora McMil-lan on the importance of having Tait’s work on display, adding Tait has travelled the world and his work is in sev-eral museums, private collections and institu-tions.
“He carves with wood, metals for jew-elry, totems and full ocean-gong canoes and so in that respect, he is a master.”
The show includes a selection of framed prints, masks, rattles and a photo essay of Tait during different times of his life.
Tait, born in 1941 in the Nisga’a Nation community of Gingolx, is self-taught, research-ing and exploring his nation’s rich cultural heritage and forg-ing his own voice that speaks thru his variety of sculptural and two-dimensional artwork.
“Early in uences - Freda Diesing (design), Gerry Marks (silver en-graving) and his father, Josiah Tait (poles) – contributed to Norman becoming the foremost Nisga’a artist working in wood, precious met-als and graphics,” says details at the award-ing to Tait of the 2012 BC Creative Lifetime Achievement Award for Aboriginal Art.
His rst exhibition
was put on in November 1977 at the University of British Columbia’s Museum of Anthropol-ogy.
The show at the Nisga’a Museum will present some of that work but will focus on his creations after 1980.
Former Nisga’a Mu-seum curator Darrin Martens said the plan to have a prominent Nisga’a artist at the mu-seum started a couple of years ago.
“His name rose to the top,” said Martens.
“It was a way for him to come home to the Nisga’a nation and to reassert those con-nections and his roots in the community.
“He’s someone who’s gone out into the world and made a ca-reer for himself and he represents Nisga’a peo-ple all over the world.”
The show is a survey of his career and the dif-ferent modes of visual arts he’s done, Martens said.
It’s only Tait’s sec-ond exhibition in his long career partly be-cause he had large public commissions of work and was doing them instead, said Mar-tens.
“The different op-portunities came up as far as doing commis-sions for individuals and different people and his career went in that direction,” he said.
Tait has carved 39 totem poles to date, including ones for the Nisga’a Nation, the Da-vid Suzuki Foundation in Japan, the Field Mu-seum in Chicago, and the British Royal Fam-ily in London’s Bushy Park. He has carved and raised ve totem poles throughout the Metro Vancouver region
“Because he’s a sto-ryteller, speaking in an authentic, distinctive Nisga’a voice Nor-man Tait’s style is like no other; unique yet respectful of the Tsim-shian tradition that is his cultural founda-tion,” read details at the awarding to Tait of the 2012 BC Creative Lifetime Achievement Award for Aboriginal Art.
Finding a Voice: The Art of Norman Tait runs thru August 28 at the Nisga’a Museum.
The museum is lo-cated in Laxgalts’ap in the Nass Valley. More information at http://www.nisgaamuseum.ca

K I T S U M K A L U M HAS always been a musical community according to guitar in-structor Anne Hill who teaches at its communi-ty school, so it came as little surprise to see stu-dents succeed at classi-cal guitar.
The ‘Na Aksa Gila Kyew Learning Centre guitar ensemble won several awards at the 2015 Paci c Northwest Music Festival, a mark of success considering many have not been in the ensemble for the full three years Hill has di-rected it.
“It was awesome,” says one of the stand out students, Ethan Mc-Neil.
“I worked really hard, learning about three songs, a prelude a minor and an etude in e minor,” he said of the music written by 19th century Spanish com-posers.
McNeil also won the internal Kitsumklaum school award for best performance.
“I have always played guitar in a wor-ship band,” he said.
“But classical guitar is really fun. I like doing the classical guitar.”
Ensemble musicians entered ve music fes-tival guitar categories – groups and solos and duets –and every one of them resulted in a rst place prize, said Hill.
Some of the songs practised during the school training involve singing with Sm’algyax translations of such standards as “You Are My Sunshine”.
The students also do songs as part of a play about the ancestral vil-lage of Robin Town, a play written by matri-arch Mildred Roberts, with the songs them-selves going way back in the history of the Kit-sumkalum.
One of them is a chant that is a tradi-tional paddling song, while another is a song Roberts learned when she was a child called “Come Little BlueJay” or “K’aba Gwis Gawa.”
All the students who are old enough in the K-12 school (‘Na Aksa Gila Kyew translates as “Where the Robin Goes for Water”) get one hour a week, whereas the en-
semble keeps a more intense practice regime.
The school’s average enrollment is around 30, and there are six in the ensemble.
The ensemble plays today at the year end gala for the school.
“Every single kid here seems to have some music in them,” said Hill of the whole school, which is very small and taught in small detached build-ings that are grouped together within the Kit-sumkalum village locat-ed just past the Kalum river bridge on the west end of Terrace.
“The Tsimshian cul-ture is rich with music.”
Hill said she has been really impressed with how quickly ev-eryone is picking up the classic guitar.

THE WEEKEND of May 28-31 the Terrace Scout Group hosted the Skeena area’s annual Totem Trails camp on Porcher Island. The weekend consisted of adventure – trying something new, the little things that create memories .
Our weekend consisted of canoeing, fishing, hiking around the beach, and of course fun! Terrace Scouts first drove to Prince Rupert to meet Rupert Scouters before taking a ferry to Porcher Island.
Most of our time was spent in Wel-come Harbour fishing! For some, it was their first time fishing and for others it was just another beautiful day in the boat. During free time the youth went out exploring, collecting momentos of their expeditions. Both youth and lead-ers had the chance escape the realities of our busy daily lives and just relax.
A few brave troopers decided to sleep underneath the stars or under shelters. A few scouters had to quickly escape from the tides coming in, under-estimating how high the tide actually came up to shore at night which created giggles for the rest of the group.
Overall, the camp was fabulously planned. Thank you to all of the leaders and supporters who helped put Totem Trails together. Legend says, if children come home dirty, smelling like camp-fire, with grins stretched from ear to ear it means that they truly had a good time. It starts with Scouts.
Briana Greer is the Skeena Area Youth Commissioner for Scouts Cana-da.

RenovationsTHE HAPPY Gang Centre for seniors on Kalum has been under-going renovations to washrooms and other parts of the building. John Sousa of Technicon is shown here painting the walls of the dining room area of the centre.
Paper carrier assaultedTERRACE RCMP re-port they received a call of an assault June 9 at the mobile home park on the top of Old Lakelse Lake Drive in Thornhill.
The initial call was
that a woman deliver-ing newspapers entered a backyard, threatened a young boy, and assault-ed a woman.
But an investigation determined that it was actually the woman de-
livering papers who was assaulted by two wom-en, report RCMP.
“She suffered nu-merous injuries specifi-cally to the head area and was transported to Mills Memorial Hospi-tal,” said RCMP.
A 38 year-old wom-an and an 18 year-old woman were arrested.
Charges are being forwarded to Crown Counsel, say police.

THERE WERE three human-caused fires in the Terrace area last week.
A fire less than a quarter of a hectare in size was discovered on the west side of Kalum Lake on June 6, a small-er fire was sparked near Hwy 37 north of Kiti-mat the following day, and the latest small fire was put out on June 10 about nine kilometres northwest of Terrace.
The Northwest Fire Centre was notified quickly about these fires and in turn was able to respond quickly thus preventing the fires from spreading.
The fires combined did not burn more than a hectare and were ex-tinguished quickly.
These fires were hu-man-caused and, with
the fire danger rating in the region at moderate to high, fire officials are asking the public to take precautions when burn-ing outdoors.
This includes ensur-ing that fires are never left unattended and fully extinguished after use.
“Human-caused fires are preventable and human-caused fires take resources away from natufrally caused fires,” said Fire Information Officer Olivia Pojar.
The resources of the Northern Fire Centre have to cover an area from the Yukon border along the coast to En-dako and have already responded to 34 fires in the region.
There are still four lightning-caused wild-fires burning in remote portions of the Cassiar region.
The Inklin River fire,
King Salmon River Ba-sin fire, and the Lang-horse Mountain fire are all burning a total of 5,019 hectares south-east of Atlin.
Another wildfire at Red River near Boya Lake Provincial Park has ignited 550 hect-ares.
None of these fires have shown any consid-erable growth since they started in late May and are not threatening any structures in the region so there are currently no resources assigned to these fires.
Last week there were five new wildfires in the region including the small fires around Ter-race. Another small fire, under a hectare in size, started out of Rio Tinto Alcan to which both the
Northwest Fire Centre and the Kitimat Fire Department responded to. A human-caused fire was also sparked on Watson Lake Trail in the Seven Sisters Park.
The ten year average for our region for this time of year is 29 fires, placing this years num-ber five fires higher than normal.
One 20-person unit crew from the North-west Fire Centre has been deployed to the Cisco Creek fire located south of Lytton.
The majority of the rest of the centre’s re-sources are deployed throughout the rest of B.C. including all four unit crews, who provide sustained action when fighting fires, and two attack crews who are
initial responders to wildfires.

Major showing at weightlifting competition THE NORTH Coast gym was pumped June 7 for the second annual Northwest Weightlifting Competition.
The packed house saw 38 competitors pull for their best – that includes 13 women in bench press and four women who pulled more than 300 lbs from the oor. Organizer Adam Yawrenko said “all in all it was a step above last year” and noted that once again, a signi -cant amount of personal records were achieved.
He said he’s already planning next year’s event and is sure that, just like last year, many of the athletes from this competition will go onto the next level this fall.

YOU GET knocked down, you get up again – it’s a familiar refrain.
But it’s not every day that you get knocked down in the middle of a long-distance championship race, get up again, and manage to not only regain your position but pull ahead to nish rst.
And yet that’s exactly what hap-pened to Grade 10 student Tyler Dozzi at provincial track and eld champion-ships in Langley earlier this month.
The national bronze-medalist be-came Caledonia’s rst track and eld athlete to bring home not one, but two gold medals from the provincial meet, placing rst in the Jr. Boys 1500 and 3000 m races. Last year, he nished top 10 in the standings at provincials in those same races – second out of the Grade 9’s in the Jr. Boys category, with the majority of his competitors being in Grade 10 – so he knew this year he had a shot at the podium.
“I knew I would be going for gold this year,” said Dozzi.
Without a proper track in Terrace (“It’s asphalt, it’ll ruin your knees”), he trained with coach Neal Curry in
Smithers and on his own. While he broke two northwest records at zones this year, he wasn’t sure how fast he’d run at provincials. “I do much better when I race against people fast-er than me,” he said.
But having raced in provincial and national meets, he knew who his competition was – and, as expected, in both rac-es the nal stretch was a battle between he and Jack Stanley from Oak Bay Secondary.
Dozzi’s approach to both races was strategic – stay near the front of the pack for the majority of the race, break away with the leaders, and then pull ahead in a sprint nish with a few hun-dred metres to go.
“I didn’t know how fast he was but I knew that when I raced him last year I had a faster sprint nish, so that’s what I was going to try to do to beat him,” he said. “And it worked.” He clocked a personal best of 4:04, beating Stanley
by three seconds. While that strategy
worked for the 1500 m race, his attempt do to the same in the 3000 m was nearly thwarted. After spending the beginning of the crowded race boxed-in in the inside lane, he began making moves towards the front of the pack. But two-and-a-half laps in “there was a bit of a pileup.”
Dozzi was knocked to the ground and stepped on.
“I hit the ground hard enough to do a full roll over my shoulder,” he said, noting that the adrenaline stopped him from noticing his leg was bleeding.
He picked himself up, realizing he was now about fourth from last.
“So I tried to regain my spot,” he said. “Within one lap I was back into about third place ... but it took a lot of energy, the getting back up, because you lose your momentum, just to catch up.”

I first heard the word Simms from Bob Clay. Probably the world’s premier craftsman of two handed split cane fly rods, a veteran steelhead guide, and a
talented steelheader who understands the nuances of the Kispiox River better than anybody, Bob is in demand as an endorser of steelheading equipment.
While on a trip to the Western United States, Bob made a side trip to the Simms factory. Bob was enthusiastic following that visit. Here, Bob told me, was an outfit that hired Americans, treated them fairly, and paid them a good wage, while winning awards for their environmental conduct.
A few years later, Simms products were ubiquitous. My first purchase was a hat I bought in the first week of December. It was a well padded, waterproof sky piece with insulated velcro tipped flaps riding on top that could be disengaged and fas-tened below the wearer’s chin to soften the blow of a knife-edged winter wind. It reminded me of the wooly boyhood caps whose fleecy flaps we secured under our chins with laces in a time before Velcro. Unlike the flap caps of yore, Simms’s cap was waterproof. It’s the best winter hat I’ve owned.
A few years later, my friend, Art Lin-gren, voiced his satisfaction with the Simms wading boots he’d been using for a season. This was when wading shoe manu-facturers were casting about for something other than felt soles for the bottom of their
boots since it had been discovered that the nox-ious algae didymosphe-nia geminata, (more commonly known by the disgusting nickname rock snot) was hitching rides to streams all over the world on the felted soles of wading boots. Simms’s solution to this predicament was a hard rubber sole made of a material with Vibram, the same material used in the manufacture of almost all hiking boots.
I bought a pair and discovered that Vitale Bramani’s patent was fine on clean rock and sandy substrate but when it came to bot-toms paved with rocks of the snotty vari-ety, Vibram soles behaved like ball bear-ings. Fortunately, Simms anticipated this. For an additional cost they provided cleats of aluminum and carbon steel, that cus-tomers could screw into the soles of their shoes to provide better purchase in the aforementioned conditions. I screwed 17 of them into each boot as per the dictates of the Workman’s Compensation Board, and have been wearing them happily for three years and counting.
My next acquisition were three sizes
of dry bags, a large one for raft trips, a mid size one for day trips, and a small one that is dandy for winter snow shoe-ing or skiing trips. The beauty of these bags is that they are completely waterproof backpacks which, provided they are not overloaded, can be worn comfortably all day. I was so pleased with the utility of my trio of waterproof packs that I bought a steel-heading backpack and a collapsible wading staff that I’ve been using on longer hikes.
So, after going through breathable stocking foot waders from a host of manufacturers and finding them all unsatisfactory, I paid over $300 for a pair of Simms, fully expecting the same quality I’d found in their other prod-ucts. After three outings, the neoprene feet began soaking in water like a couple of sponges. I boxed them up with a note, paid the freight, and sent them to Montana. They arrived back two weeks later with new feet. A few outings later, the waders began to leak at the crotch and along the seam of the left leg. I circled the leaks with an indelible felt pen, wrote another note
and sent them back. The people at Simms acknowledged the defect and repaired them. Why they didn’t simply replace them still escapes me.
The repaired waders lasted one season then sprung leaks again. When I sent them back for the third time, I got an email tell-ing me the cost of the repair was over a hundred dollars. I sent back a reply telling Simms to keep the damn things because, with shipping costs and all, I couldn’t af-ford them. I got a phone call from a Simms employee within the hour. He was pleasant and helpful. We had a lengthy talk about breathable waders, the upshot of which was that my waders were repaired gratis and shipped back. They lasted six months and after using two large tubes of Goop without stopping the new leaks, I gave up on them.
Was this pair defective? Should I save up $850 for the top of the line Simms wad-ers? These questions were answered when I met Willy McCleary on the Lakelse River last fall. Willy fishes a lot, like I do. He had shelled out the big bucks for Simms high end waders and told me after a season they leaked just like the cheaper brands do.
Breathable waders, it appears, have a life lasting approximately 150 outings. That means they will last six years for a ca-sual fisher, three seasons for an active fish-erman and one season for a fishing guide or Willy and I. The plain truth is even Simms can’t build a long lasting breathable wader.

THE TERRACE Speedway hosted its sec-ond race weekend of the year June 6 and 7 and managed to pull off two days of fine rac-ing despite wet weather and some mechani-cal issues.
Saturday night saw several cars unexpect-edly and unfortunately parked, but the night still showcased strong races and results.
There were six Thunder cars in the pits, looking like a nice field. Kris Sweet, #51, swept both Heat and Main for the night. Meanwhile in Bomber Class there were six bombers out for the night.
Trevor Reinert, #60, set the fast time for the night with a time of 21.68. But Paul Fleming in the #114 Honda Civic fixed his alternator problems and was close with a time of 21.69, setting a trend for the week-end between these two cars. In B bomber class it was the Archer family, brothers Na-than Archer, 16, driving the #114 Bomber and brother Aiden Archer, 14, driving the #259 taking on the father and son team of Rick Reinert #60 and Trevor Reinert #95. Nathan who is defending his 16-and-under championship from last year and who is only in his second year of racing managed to hold off strong challenges from Rick Reinert #60 to take wins in both the heat and the main.
In A Bomber action there were a couple of stories in play. Tim Zettler, 15, in the #259 Cavalier managed to figure out his fuel is-sue and put on a successful night of racing, including a few spins in the Main while run-ning over the oil patch put down earlier in the night by Kat Finnie #182 – a learning experience for Tim. The #66 mustang driven by Vince McLain continued to struggle this Saturday. Vince was lapped in the A Heat Race and when Paul Fleming took the car out in the B Main, he ran strong but had the car die on him two thirds of the way through the race. The #66 never made it back onto the track for the weekend. But no worries – Vince should have the problem worked out by the next race weekend.
The battle for the win – and what might be a good battle for the season brewing
between these two cars – was a close race between the #114 of Paul Fleming and the #60 Toyota Celica of Trevor Reinert. Trevor won both the Heat and the Main by a fender length.
On Sunday, rainy weather meant the crew wasn’t sure if the race day would happen. Cars circled the track for a while trying to get the track dried off, but the rain kept com-ing back. Finally at just after 2 p.m. the rain stopped, there were fans in the stands, and the crew said lets go for it.
There were only three Thunder cars out for Sunday’s racing and #77 Terry Reinert brought out his well-seasoned 1966 Pontiac Beaumont. There was some close racing with some three-wide laps. Kris Sweet in the #51 Ford F150 pickup truck showed every-one that he is a true racer and his new paint
job wasn't about to slow him down. He saw a hole when the #14 of Mark Kyle plowed coming out of turn four and Sweet went un-derneath him. Kyle’s tires finally grabbed and shot him down into the right rear fender spinning both cars in front of the #77 of Ter-ry Reinert. Reinert managed to get stopped without hitting anything and all three cars managed to get back out and finish the race. Sweet showed his dominance and won all three races, the Trophy, Heat and Main.
In Bomber Class even in the rain Trevor Reinert in the #60 Toyota Celica managed to set the fast time for the third raceday in a row with a time of 24.35 – a good three seconds off his regular pace.
B Bomber had Vince McLain borrowing the #53 Ford Mustang of Rick Reinert to keep his championship run alive. In his sec-
ond day of racing, #259 Aiden Archer con-tinued to improve and had no mishaps other than finding that the fuel tank in his Chevy Cavalier is mounted backwards so it has to be kept filled up all of the time. The battle in B Bomber was between #114 Nathan Archer and #60 Rick Reinert with Archer continuing to impress in his second year of racing, win-ning the Trophy Dash and Main Event with #60 Rick Reinert winning the Heat Race.
In A bomber Tim Zettler #259 also con-tinues to impress with good starts. He was able to spend the day battling with #53 Rick Reinert for third place most of the day. Just like Saturday, on Sunday the battle was be-tween #114 Paul Fleming and #60 Trevor Reinert. All three races came down to a drag race out of turn four with the bigger engine of the Celica out pulling the little engine of the Civic on the way to the finish line. Trevor Reinert #60 managed to sweep all three rac-es, but it was a good battle all the way.
Come out and check out the racing action on July 4 and 5th featuring our 50 lap Me-morial race with all cars on the track at the same time.

Dozzi breaks records as double championThe top three broke
away from the group, and shortly thereafter the racer in second place began to slow down and Dozzi made a move past him – meaning it was he and Stanley, from the 1500 m, in first and sec-ond once again.
“He started to surge,” said Dozzi. “He picked up the speed with two laps to go be-cause he knew that if he can’t beat me in the last lap sprinting he could probably tire me out too much to sprint with two laps to go.”
But Dozzi fought hard to keep up with that second last lap. “I almost slowed down from exhaustion with 600 m to go,” he said. “Just barely kept up with him.”
But as they entered the last lap, Dozzi dipped into the last of his untapped reserves and pulled ahead of Stanley.
“I often don’t hear when people yell to me during the races,” he said. But “I heard my coach from Smithers yelling at the side of the track to speed up with 250 m to go, so I did.
“I found out that I ended up beating him by seven seconds.”
He said he thinks his time of 8:59 was only impacted slightly by his fall.
“I think it might have only made a difference of a second – because I still would have caught up,” he said. “He didn’t change his pace when I fell, but it’s more a mat-ter of how much energy
I would have had at the end.”
He said he wasn’t feeling too great after the race – exhausted and overheated from racing
on a hot, windy day – but that didn’t stop him from taking it all in.
“I got to go to the podium for a second time,” he said. “That
was a really great expe-rience.”
It’s fair to say this probably won’t be Dozzi’s last stand on a podium. A driven ath-
lete and student, he has goals for the next sever-al years of competition – attending provincial and national meets this summer to gear up for
Grade 11 competition, the year that matters for making the high school national team – that cu-mulate in his earning a scholarship to a top
track university like the University of Oregon.
“I’m thinking schol-arships for sure,” he said. “It’s not so much will I, it’s where.”
Camp returns REGISTRATION IS now open for the Wolf-pack Volleyball Camp, held for the past several years at Caledonia Sec-ondary School.
A chance to learn the fundamentals of volleyball or beef up current court skills, the camp runs August 25 - 28 in two sessions and is coached by the head coach of Thomp-son Rivers University’s men’s volleyball team, Patrick Hennelly.
