By CeCile Favron

For a family of four forced to flee the Fort McMurray wildfire earlier this month, the support they have re-ceived since arriving in Ter-race has been overwhelm-ing.

Jen and Lee Suurhoff along with their two daugh-ters Madelyn, 6, and reese, 2, will be staying with rela-tives in town until they are allowed to return to alberta and survey the damage done to their home.

The pair, originally from Campbell river, say they are now working on getting settled in to everyday life in Terrace.

It didn’t take long follow-ing their arrival before help from the community started pouring in. Jen was over-whelmed by the response to her social media postings.

“My inbox has been flooded,” she said. “[By] the second day there were tonnes of people coming to drop off toys, clothes, food and even gift cards.”

“Everyone here [has] really, really opened their arms,” Lee remarked.

The Suurhoffs don’t yet know the fate of their house of three years in Fort Mc-Murray and say that even as they were evacuating they weren’t prepared for what the fire would do to their community.

“We were thinking ‘it won’t reach our house’ but by the time we left town we heard that the fire had come into our neighbourhood,” Jen said.

“We know that [our house] is not burnt down, the structure is there. We’re thinking it got some water and smoke damage. Half of our street is gone – houses on our street have been com-

pletely burnt and we missed it by a few.”

It’s the family’s first-ever stay in Terrace and they are living with Jen’s parents, andre and Emily Le Doux.

as of late last week, 20 families in northern B.C. have registered with the Canadian red Cross.

Lee, a heavy equipment operator, said they chose to come here so that their young children would have a place to stay while he re-turned to work.

“once I found out how bad it was, I knew I’d be going back [to camp] quick-

er than we’d be going back to our home,” he explained. “So I at least wanted my family to be with family.”

It is expected to take months before residents will be able to go back home again and so the Suurhoff family has chosen to en-rol their eldest daughter in school.

“We went to check out the school down the road because we weren’t sure if we were going to send her to school because that’s a lot of change for a six-year-old,” Jen said.

Lee and Jen Suurhoff and their two young children from Fort McMurray are tem-porarily calling Terrace home after a massive wildfire forced their evacuation from the northern alberta city two weeks ago.

Fort McMurray family settles in

SKEENa NDP MP Nathan Cullen says he’s leaning toward not taking a run at his party’s leadership.

The long-serving MP whose name was immediately mentioned as a potential successor to Tom Mulcair when the NDP voted in favour of finding a new leader earlier this year, compared his thinking to that of the needle in the col-our-coded scale used to indicate forest fire danger ratings.

“right now I’d say I’d be in the orange leading to red,” said Cullen.

First elected as the NDP MP for Skeena in 2004, Cul-len’s national profile has increased steadily and he became well known when he finished a strong third in the last NDP leadership race in 2012.

That was won by Mulcair who took the NDP into last fall’s election with high hopes of forming the next govern-ment. But the party fell to third place, sparking a leadership review vote resulting in the decision to replace Mulcair.

The position itself doesn’t faze Cullen but if he does run and is elected as the leader of the federal NDP, he’s worried about how the job might affect his family.

The Cullens have twin boys who will be six this summer and about to enter grade one.

“That’s what gives me pause, the impact on my family and being what’s most important, a good parent,” he said.

“I’d say that would be the single biggest concern right now,” he said.

Cullen noted he already does a lot of travelling given his riding is among the largest in the country and is one of the farthest away from ottawa.

and Cullen said he’d have to take into account what residents of Skeena, people he calls his “boss”, might have to say.

THE WHITEBOTTOM Road fire was stoked early on by strong winds before crews could attack from the ground.

Increasing home costBy BEN BENGTSON

THE AVERAGE price of a home in Terrace was 17 per cent higher for the first four months of this year compared to the same period in 2015, indicate the latest real estate sales statistics.

Multiple Listing Service statistics show 37 single family residences here changed hands since Jan. 1 with an average selling price of $323,800 compared to the January to April 2015 average of $276,438 when 49 single family homes were sold.

Despite the jump in average sales prices, local realtors describe the local market as fairly normal.

“What I would say is that it’s a normal spring market: lots on the market, lots for buyers to choose from; sellers have to be a little more sharp on pricing because there’s lots of homes coming up on the market,” said Shannon McAllister, owner and managing broker at the Terrace Real Estate Com-pany.

And while the average price so far this year is higher than the equivalent period in 2015, McAl-lister said caution should be used when making comparisons. That’s because average prices reflect the total values of homes sold divided by the num-ber of homes sold.

And even though total dollar volume may drop, if fewer homes are sold, the average will increase.

Remax Coast Mountains principal broker Sheila Love acknowledged that overall activity is down this year compared to last year.

“However, when I say that, we were very busy in the last couple of weeks,” she said.

Recent purchasers, if not pulled to the area by industrial activity, are attracted by the lifestyle, Love added.

Wildfire burns west of TerraceCREWS CONTINUED to battle a wildfire burning near power lines just west of Ter-race over the weekend.

The fire, located 11.5 km along Whitebottom Rd in the Old Remo area, covered a total of eight hectares last Saturday.

It was first reported to fire

officials from the Northwest Fire Centre around 5 p.m. on May 12 and strong winds at the time prompted crews to respond with air tankers and a helicopter.

Fifteen firefighters aided by air support worked through-out the weekend to put out the

flames. At one point, the fire burned under power lines in the area, putting BC Hydro on alert.

The fire is suspected to be human-caused, but what sparked the blaze is still under investigation.

When the fire was first dis-

covered, conditions meant that crews could not immediately undertake an attack from the ground.

“There were some challen-ging conditions with the wind so we focused on air support first,” explained fire informa-tion officer Haley Williams.

THIS YEAR’S convocation ceremony for the Northwest Community College (NWCC) gradu-ating class of 2016 featured some new traditions meant to highlight the uniqueness of the region.

The May 12 convocation ceremony took place at R.E.M. Lee Theatre and students from Terrace as well as from other communities in northwestern B.C. were there to be honoured for their academic achievements.

One of the new traditions that was incorpor-ated this year featured Gitlaxdax drummers Ross Scodane and Gerald Brown drumming the gradu-ates into the theatre before the ceremony was held.

While convocation ceremonies typically feature a mace being carried onto the stage by a master of ceremonies, NWCC decided to introduce a paddle celebrated the aboriginal heritage and uniqueness of the region.

The paddle was designed and painted by Stan Bevan, an artist and instructor with the NWCC Fred Diesing School of Northwest Coast Art locat-ed at the college’s Terrace campus.

“This paddle is a symbol of convocation, said NWCC president Ken Burt in a news release. “In pursuing education you have given yourself the tools to navigate the next stages of your journey.”

The keynote speaker for the ceremony was Alice Maitland, who is a retired NWCC regional director and current Hazelton mayor.

In her comments to the graduates, she said,“I’ve gotten old doing what I love to do and working on things I’m passionate about. You should do that.”

Low interest rates may have you thinking about taking on more debt: the cost of a new home, ‘moving up’ to a larger home or re nancing your existing home. If so, knowing what’s what with mortgages can save you money now and in the future. To get you going, here are some of the mortgage basics you should know.

Rate-ability The interest rate for a variable rate mortgage is usually lower than that for a xed-rate mortgage but:

• A xed-rate mortgage locks in your interest rate for the full term so you have the security of knowing your monthly payment will remain the same.

• The interest rate of a variable rate mortgage is tied to various fl uid market conditions that can increase your interest rate and mortgage payments at any time.

Flexibility A exible mortgage usually includes the ability to change your payment frequency, increase the amount of your regular payments, or apply an additional lump-sum payment each year without a fee – meaning you can pay off your mortgage faster and save on interest costs.

Portability Mortgages usually have an amortization period of 25 years and a locked-in term of ve years - however life is not always that “typical”. A new job, new family member or any of life’s other unexpected events can lead to the need to move to a new home. A portable mortgage gives you the option of moving your current mortgage from one property to another (generally subject to a property appraisal).

Assumability Another mortgage feature to consider if you intend to ‘move on’. In the event that you need to sell your property before your mortgage maturity date, an assumable mortgage allows you to transfer your mortgage term to the new property owner (subject to standard credit approval) – thus saving on prepayment charges.

Re-advance-ability A re-advancable mortgage allows you to re-borrow, or ‘re-advance’, the paid-down portion of your mortgage, up to the original registered mortgage amount. This cost-saving feature can save you money on the legal fees that are normally associated with a traditional mortgage re nance.

There is never a bad time to look closely at your mortgage options – especially when you work through them with your professional advisor to ensure you’re getting the best mortgage for your unique situation.

A few weeks ago I listened to a fe-male Terrace city councillor speak

on the radio about the need for a detox program here.

I hope this issue is kept alive in every way possible and not just thrown under the rug like so many are.

You see, I, myself, suf-fered an overdose on August 20, 2014.

I may feel the wrath of my family for admitting I had a problem, but the fact is that anyone can be caught in this trap.

My overdose was so se-vere the doctors informed my terrified parents that I would most likely require home care for the rest of my life. I was without a heart-beat and not breathing for nearly 15 minutes.

Being dead for such a long time caused me a cer-tain amount of memory loss, hearing loss, and a good amount of eye-sight loss.

I laugh about this in retrospect and when I am asked about my accidental overdose leaving me some-what normal and not nearly as damaged as I should have been from hypoxia, I simply say: “the pickle jar that God gave me must have been a good one so as to keep my brain in good shape during my long sleep.”

Yes, I know this is not a laughing matter – I put my entire family through hell as I lay unconscious for the better part of a week.

When I got the strength to sit up, then to walk, I looked myself in the mirror only to see a skeleton of a man just 140 pounds. I stared and stared for the longest time and could only think about what I had done to myself.

Looking back, I knew it was me that was the prob-lem. I blamed no one for my decisions, even though the addiction stemmed from a workplace accident which mandated three surgeries be-tween 2008 and 2012.

The initial accident hap-pened September 23, 2005 and forced me to work with a severely torn shoulder until 2008 when my claim to WorkSafe BC was finally accepted.

The overdose was a bless-ing in disguise, for when I was asleep for nearly one week I was naturally detoxi-fied, meaning I suffered no withdrawal symptoms at all.

I am so happy to be able to say that I have been clean of oxycodone for two years coming this August 20,

2016.I have also overcome my

drinking habits and have been sober for one year and nine weeks.

It was exactly that long ago that I had a depressive episode.

I had no one to talk to re-garding my depression and I climbed into a bottle of vod-ka each day, not caring for myself, and letting the TV lull me to sleep on my living room rug, fully clothed.

This went on for a week until I woke up at 2 a.m. with no vodka left and a few sober moments to think: “do I really want to worry my entire family again?”

I thought to myself “no” and I called a taxi to check myself into the hospital.

I told the doctors and nurses to not inform my family as my weaknesses could only be addressed by me alone and I had already caused them so much worry.

After my release, I joined Alcoholics Anonymous to stay on the right track and to develop a support network.

Now I find myself in a position to give back to others who need support – drinkers as well as drug abusers – and to offer my stories about what those ad-dictions will lead to.

The bottom line is this: they will suffer an early death from alcohol addiction or an overdose from drugs.

AddictionAs any addict will admit

to you, using opiates is never

enough and the reality of re-quiring more and more will turn the addicts toward drug trafficking or into a life of prostitution and, worse yet, robbing other dealers and legitimate places of business just to support their habit.

They only think of the consequences when the damage is done.

My case was particular-ly complicated as I require pain medication to deal with ongoing chronic shoulder pain.

I asked my doctor to send me to Alberta, as they ran a clinic there with a program specifically designed to wean the addict down to a reasonable amount of a pain medication. Perhaps just a few Tylenol-Codeine No. 3 per day, which serves me well enough now.

However, WorkSafe BC would not support my treatment in another prov-ince. They were only will-ing to send me to the Prince George detox facility to, as they said, cure my addiction in only a three week stay of total abstinence.

I laughed myself silly at the proposal of being cured of all drug cravings in just three weeks. My constant self medication – using 240 10-mg oxycodone pills every two weeks – caused me to drink a bottle and a half of vodka straight up each day just to deal with the terrible withdrawal symptoms.

So how would I mitigate my shoulder and back pain without the oxycodone? Be-

come an alcohol addict, or worse turn to heroin on the street and then perhaps be found dead from an over-dose in some flop house with a needle stuck in my arm?

I was so desperate for help that I made an appoint-ment with a doctor in town and I told him of my vicious drug and alcohol cycle and that I was just so tired of be-ing sick.

Sometimes using meth-adone works, but it does not give you the euphoric feeling that oxycodone pro-vides.

I said my overdose caused me some memory loss and, after being on methadone for weeks, I do not remem-ber how it was that I drove myself to the Willows low cost housing facility to bring my friend their daily Tim Hortons coffee.

I am only guessing when I say I drove there. I think I must have taken a double dose of methadone after I talked my doctor into al-lowing me to pick up a whole week’s supply at once to save myself a daily trip to the pharmacy and the dis-pensing fees and gas.

I did learn the hard way that no matter how much methadone a person takes there is no such thing as a euphoric feeling.

Taking a look at what happened to me could be of great benefit to doctors who prescribe this drug so they warn the new user to forget about trying to get high on the drug as its only proper-

ties are to get relief of the withdrawal symptoms.

In needI would say that Terrace

needs a detox facility in the worst way, one that would give an outpatient only his or her daily allotment to get them acclimatized to using only their daily supply.

I look back at my ten years of addiction and I most certainly would have bene-fited from such a program.

Furthermore, there is no place for the homeless to go on the weekends.

It’s as though the people who are in need, homeless, drug addicted, or alcoholics simply do not exist on the weekends and only if you are near death can you find yourself help at the hospital.

And each time I have gone to the mental health and addictions service, I usually get the same answer: “oh he, or she, is in a meet-ing.”

I would ask all of you then, would a person in a crisis situation benefit from an appointment days down the road?

There is definitely some-thing wrong with this pic-ture. For if a person is in the emergency department with a severe health problem, the patient always receives ser-vice, and so should a patient with a serious mental health crisis.

Why should a person be forced to wait when there are plenty of counsellors in a meeting next door?

I say all this because people in crisis need help not just on weekdays, but 24/7.

And if you need input from an individual who understands the very real need for a detox centre in the hub of the northwest, you only need to talk to a reformed addict such as my-self.

I was found overdosed in the Willows housing com-plex. I owe a huge debt of gratitude to my friend there who found me unconscious in the hallway and then called the manager, who in turn called the medics.

My friend is a very lost and addicted soul struggling with schizophrenia. I vis-it him almost every day to make sure he is alright and try to coax him to attend AA meetings with me.

My friend gets so little money from welfare that he also sells some of his medi-cations so he can maintain his drug habits.

I know that sooner or lat-ter he will hit bottom hard from an overdose or liver damage from keeping up that sort of lifestyle.

Sad but trueA few weeks ago, I had

the pleasure of meeting a woman who was advocating for a detox centre in Terrace with some large homemade signs in the courthouse lob-by. I introduced myself and told her my own story only to notice that no one had signed her petition.

I pleasantly told her that she may do much better get-ting signatures downtown where people with alcohol addiction congregate around the Inn of the West.

I had a funny feeling that this very nice lady would feel out of her element there, unless she was being es-corted by some sort of huge bouncer.

Anyways, maybe it would be a waste of her time because some chronic addicts don’t really desire help unless they hit bottom so hard that there is only one way to go, which is straight into a coffin.

Sad, but true.From a reformed sub-

stance abuser who cherishes sobriety and the opportunity to help others.

T H R O U G H B I F O C A L S

CLAUDETTE SANDECKI

When company service is less than satisfac-tory, Canadian

consumers are too polite to complain to the company in person or even on line. In-stead -- according to a May 9 report in the Financial Post -- we slink away to nd another supplier.

Not me. Especially not after my blueberry incident April 28.

Once home with groceries put away and lunch, I com-plained directly to Wholesale Club’s Brampton head of ce by website and by phone.

May 4 I received an email from Loblaw’s Senior Customer Relations Rep-resentative expressing their disappointment I had found their store’s service unsatis-factory.

All along I knew any shortcomings were not the fault of the local store, but with the directives coming down from some head of ce exec sprawled in a leather chair. Local staff are equal-ly upset with the willy nilly changes.

The blueberry incident topped months of vexation as my main supermarket dis-continued brands I’d been

purchasing weekly since the store was built, introduced new brands or smaller sizes, and tested my patience and brand loyalty moving things around from one aisle to an-other until my shopping trips took longer.

Why haven’t I abandoned this supermarket to shop at another? Simple. Most goods are a dollar or two cheaper than at other stores in town.

If the product is a standard brand packaged in a bottle or can, exactly the same as what I’d nd in a higher-priced store, I see no reason to pay more.

Generous parking is a big draw for me. Shop any fore-

noon and you’ll nd oodles of drive-through parking, with a handy gas station nearby.

Display shelves stop far short of the ceiling. I feel more comfortable. Less con-stricted. Don’t ask me why oor-to-ceiling shelves ex-ert a subtle psychological discomfort on me, but they do, equal to Justin Bieber Muzak.

Most of all, I like the staff. They are too few, and stressed. Yet they hide any annoyance when I ask them to show me where a famil-iar product has been moved to, or send them off to nd a price for something that’s not marked. I’m aware when they see me approaching they may turn away, intently stock the shelf before them, or dash to the washroom. No bother. Neither tactic deters my quest for information; I seek another staffer.

The day of the blueberry incident I had a choice be-tween 18.2 oz. blueberries from Chile priced at $6.98, but none available. Or 9.8 oz. blueberries from Mexico with no price.

Sounds of demolition led me to a staffer pounding out his frustrations on a back-

room wall with a heavy ham-mer .

During a lull in the pound-ing I outlined my quandary to Big John and handed him a small clamshell. “Does $6.98 entitle me to two of these?”

“It’s not the same prod-uct,” he said. That I already knew. He scanned the bar-code but offered me no price speci c to Mexico berries.

The cash register charged me $6.98.

Too often the till charges a dollar or two more than the price on the display shelf. Or, as in the case of the ham ring advertised in the yer at $5, the shelf price was closer to $7. Why? The staff had been too busy to update the price to the yer’s.

My cashier stub gave me a website www.storeopin-ion.ca and a phone number 1-888-495-5111 where I was invited to tell them how they did today. I told them.

The email ended, “We appreciate you sharing your feedback with us. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further ques-tions.”

ESTABLISHED APRIL 27, 1988

ENBRIDGE has swung for the fen-ces in its application to the National Energy Board for a three-year exten-sion of its permit to build the North-ern Gateway pipeline. It’s doing so by promoting an aboriginal buy-in of its $7.9 billion project as a way of demonstrating broad aboriginal support.

This takes the form of the Ab-original Equity Partnership (AEP), 31 First Nations and Metis com-munities with whom Enbridge has signed agreements which could see 33 per cent of the pipeline owned by the communities.

The AEP says this amounts to more than 70 per cent of First Na-tions and Metis communities along the proposed pipeline route.

It’s an impressive statistic when laid against one of the foundational pillars of opposition to the pipeline – aboriginal people don’t want it built.

But while those in opposition are very public, other than two First Na-tions and two Metis leaders identi- ed as “stewards” of the AEP, the identities of the AEP communities aren’t known.

Enbridge cites con dentiality clauses within the AEP agreements as to why it won’t name the com-munities, saying it’s up to the com-munities themselves.

Fair enough. But given that no in-dustrial project has any likelihood of success or acceptance without ab-original support, far more transpar-ency is needed. It’s time for the AEP to fully come out from the shadows.

MALCOLM BAXTER

The Mail Bag

Why would Cullen want leader’s job?They say a week in pol-

itics is a long time but now, even after more than a month, I wonder

how Nathan Cullen is doing on deciding whether he’ll take a run at the federal NDP leadership or not.

When the federal NDP gath-ered in Edmonton and voted to give current leader Tom Mulcair the boot, it took a nanosecond for the speculation to start on who his successor would be.

And, no surprise, the list in-cluded Skeena’s own MP Nathan Cullen.

That was predictable given he is a House of Commons veteran going on 12 years, is apparently well-liked on the Hill including even by members of other parties and, most important, had sur-prised many with his strong third place showing in the last leader-ship vote.

But I find myself asking why on earth he would ever want the job.

In the last election the Con-servative vote essentially fell to

its bedrock level and it can ex-pect, assuming it doesn’t pick an utterly disastrous new leader, that vote will at a minimum pretty much hold in 2019.

So the only way the New Democrats can get out of third place is to take mega votes from the Libs.

I give you two words to ex-plain why that will not happen: Leap Manifesto.

This starry-eyed clarion call to declare holy war on greenhouse gas emissions was debated at the NDP convention. It proposes that within 20 years every single kilowatt hour of electricity used across Canada will come from renewable resources.

And that by 2050 the use of fossil fuels will be zero.

But the real vote killer is the demand that no new projects that involve using non-renewable re-sources – including pipelines – be permitted starting immediately.

Which, for example, would translate to no LNG plants ever being built in the northwest.

So the party that claims to

represent the workers who would earn good money building and operating those projects and the First Nations which will benefit from them are going to be kicked to the curb?

I am reminded of the 1983 election in Britain when, still smarting from its defeat by Mag-gie Thacher in the previous elec-tion, the Labour Party ran on a New Hope for Britain manifesto which was a violent lurch to the

left.One of its own MPs, Gerald

Kaufman, described it as the longest suicide note in history. He was not wrong: Labour was massacred. The Leap Manifesto may be shorter, but the effect will be the same, a leap into electoral oblivion.

So I repeat, why on earth would Cullen want the job?

The fascinating thing was that one of the speakers at the conven-tion who made plain her oppos-ition to Leap was a certain Rachel Notley, premier of Alberta’s, yes, NDP government.

Pointing out that her govern-ment had put forward and was implementing a concrete plan, she added, “That is what you do when you move up from mani-festos to the detailed, principled, active plans you can really imple-ment by winning an election.”

In other words adopt Leap as party policy and you’ll never win an election and therefore will never be able to implement any-thing.

Meanwhile in another part of

Politics Town federal environ-ment minister Catherine Mc-Kenna was singing a similar tune.

Speaking at a town hall meet-ing with Gina McCarthy of the US Environmental Protection Agency, she said, “[Canada] didn’t get into fossil fuels over-night and we’re not going to get out of them [overnight].”

And a Canadian Press story reports “sources” saying prime minister Justin Trudeau has instructed his senior lieutenants to come with a plan that would see both the Energy East and the Kinder Morgan expansion in BC go through, which will be music to the ears of Notley.

So we have the centrist federal Liberals in favour of the Kinder Morgan expansion, we have the left wing Albert government in favour of the Kinder Morgan ex-pansion and yet we have the right wing BC government at this mo-ment opposed to that same pro-ject.

As a friend of mine com-mented, “It makes no sense.”

Dear Sir:British Columbians

have recently learned that Premier Christy Clark has been receiv-ing a hefty bonus from the Liberal party who charge attendees up to $20,000 per plate to hear dinner speeches by the Premier.

Madam Premier claims this has been going on since the ear-ly 1990s by previous B.C. governments and she does not see it as an issue. Does that mean it is okay because it can be construed as a trad-ition?

The provincial Con-flict of Interest Com-missioner ruled the Premier did not breach any rules or break the law while receiving this money.

That is good news because we certainly do not want our Premier to break the law.

What the commis-sioner was not able to do was to rule on the ethics associated with the practice which al-lows corporations and wealthy individuals to lobby the Premier, her staff and the Liberal party/provincial gov-ernment. This is a prac-

tice that slips through the back door disguised as a dinner cost when in fact it is a financial con-tribution that the gener-al public cannot begin to match or dream of being a part of.

The wealthy and powerful are given a special window of

opportunity to influence provincial government policy and legislation and for her to say other-wise is not believable. Neither an individual or corporate entity is going to shell out that kind of money and not expect something in return. Most people who care

and understand politics know that is the case.

The Premier accuses those who oppose de-velopment of always saying no when they should be saying yes.

Reversing the pos-ition of the premier on the matter of receiving a bonus for listening to

the wealthy and power-ful, she should not be saying yes, but “no”

And saying that as well to projects and de-velopment that are not in the long term best interest of British Col-umbia and Canada.

B.C. PREMIER Christy Clark, left, and Ontario premier Kathleen Wynne, right, have been criticized for having their re-spective political parties host high-priced events attended by corporations and others.

DEBATE OVER the location for a homeless shelter in Terrace coun-cil has continued online at www.terracstandard.com.

Walter Fricke sug-gests CN “should be-come a decent corpor-ate citizen and donate the land where the old bunkhouse burnt down for a wet shelter [a term given a shelter that accepts people who have been drinking]. It would be close enough to downtown to be con-venient and it would possibly appease the citizens and businesses that don’t want it in the downtown core.”

But Terrace city councillor James Cor-deiro wonders who will build a building if a lo-cation was found.

“There is no funding available for new con-struction from the prov-ince only renovation,” he says. “Furthermore even if funding was there new construction would be required to be at Leed Gold standard and the cost would be significant.”

Blood Alcohol Content (BAC)

A unit measuring the amount of alcohol in the body. E.g., 0.05 BAC = 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100 milliliters of blood.

The consequences for having a BAC between 0.05 and 0.08 are the same for all drivers:

First Offense: Immediate 3 day license suspension, 3 day vehicle impoundment, a $200 fine

Second Offense: Immediate 7 day license suspension, 7 day vehicle impoundment, a $300 fine

Third Offense: Immediate 30 day license suspension, 30 day vehicle impoundment, a $400 fine, mandatory Responsible Driver Program course, enrollment in ignition interlock program

If your BAC is over 0.08 while operating or suspected of operating a vehicle, the following consequences apply before any conviction is made:

◼ Immediate 90 day license suspension ◼ 30 day vehicle impoundment◼ $500 fine◼ mandatory enrollment in Responsible

Driver Program◼ Enrollment in ignition interlock

program

Refusal to give a breath sample results in the same consequences as blowing above 0.08, and police officers may still charge you with impaired driving.


Nathan Cullen

Move to broaden EI benefitsshouldn’t be ‘one-off,’ MP saysN O R T H W E S T RESIDENTS shouldn’t have to wait until there’s a crisis to have their Employment Insur-ance benefits extended, says Skeena NDP MP Nathan Cullen.

“Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy with the decision, but this shouldn’t be treated like a one-off,” said Cullen of the decision to add five additional weeks of coverage to the existing 45 weeks for qualifying applicants.

The decision, an-nounced in the federal budget to come into effect in March, adds those five weeks to qualifying applicants

in 12 regions, one of which is northern B.C.

It applies to regions where the unemploy-ment rate has increased in size by two percent-age points between March 2015 and Feb-ruary 2016 compared to the lowest point be-tween December 2014 and February 2015.

The extended bene-fits will begin in July and be retroactive to January 2015, a move said to incorporate job losses caused by a downturn in the oil and gas industry.

That would apply specifically to areas such as northeastern B.C. which has seen

its unemployment rate climb from 4.2 per cent in March 2015 to 9.7 per cent in March 2016 to then retreat slightly to 9.4 per cent in April 2016.

But the northwest

has had a historically higher and steadier un-employment rate which in April 2016 was 7.8 per cent and 6.1 per cent in April 2015.

“We’ve been trying for years to treat the northwest separate from the northeast. They are so utterly different,” said Cullen in saying the northwest has been more vulnerable over the years to economic shifts.

And he’s also look-ing forward to prom-ised improvements as to how many people can qualify for EI in the first place.

“It really seems to have been designed not

to deliver,” said Cullen. “As many as a third of people paying into it weren’t able to even qualify.”

“It’s like having in-surance and not being able to use it.”

Long-serving ap-plicants will also see the length of time they can collect extend to 70 weeks.

Cullen also said it’s important to remember that the money for EI comes from employees and employers, not the federal government.

Late last week, the federal government also announced it was ex-tending benefits in three more areas.

TERRACE RCMP say two people were ar-rested after reports were received last week of “car shopping” in the 4700 Block area of Scott Ave. The term describes the practice of people taking small items from unlocked vehicles.

Suspected stolen items and drug parapher-nalia were seized, say police.

Charge recommendations are being for-warded on a 41-year-old man and a youth.

CAMERON PEAL, back row left, and Grace Stewart, back row right, won awards for their performances at the BC Drama Festival.

Students win BC drama awardsThe Sears BC Drama Festival 2016 adjudicator chose two local high school students for awards out of the 250 students from the schools who performed.

Grace Stewart won Outstanding Actor and Cameron Peal won the Special Adjudicator’s Award for Performance as chosen by festival adjudicator Allan Morgan.

Both students were in Caledon-ia’s play Circuits, about a girl say-ing goodbye to her dead brother.

“The adjudicator was duly im-pressed by the Caledonia perform-ance and most certainly by what Grace and Cameron demonstrated,” said drama teacher Robin Mac-Leod, adding she was “Feeling proud!”

Earlier this year in the Northwest Zone High School Drama Festival, Peal and Stewart were recognized for their lead roles in Circuits. Cal drama earned six awards at zones.

TIME IS ticking down to this year’s Relay for Life, which will be the first shorter re-lay at six hours instead of 12 hours.

But that doesn’t mean that any of the highlights will be missing or that the event will be any less fun.

Everyone is invited to the family-friendly event and there’s still time to enter a team.

“Our goal for this year is 36 teams, so we are still hoping to encourage a few more teams to register,” says Amanda Barry, annual giv-ing coordinator for Terrace, Kitimat and Prince Rupert for the Canadian Cancer Society, BC and Yukon division.

“The teams that have joined are doing amazing and fundraising is in full swing.”

As of May 13, 28 teams had entered with a total of 139 participants.

Nearly $25,000 had al-ready been raised.

There is no admission fee; however, donations are en-couraged – cash or check is easiest, but there is a limited ability to process credit cards.

Anyone interested in learning more about creating a team can call Kory Tanner, captain of team Dream Catch-ers, at 250-615-2375.

For more details, includ-ing the day’s highlights, see the Community Calendar on page 19.

Relay for Life looking for more teams

A YOUNG wife and mother’s life has been turned upside down with a diagnosis of cancer that will see her undergo intense treatment for the next year.

Leah Wiebe, 28, went to the doc-tor for some bruising May 3 and was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL), says her sister Ruth Magee.

Within 48 hours, Leah was mediv-aced to the Leukemia and Bone Mar-row Transplant Program at Vancouver General Hospital where she began many agonizing tests, says Ruth.

On May 7, she began chemother-apy. Leah’s doctor informed her that she will be in treatment there for the next year.

Her husband Ryan will not be able to work full time or at all, because he will be needed for her care as well as to care for their two boys, Oliver, 4, and Lincoln, eight months old.

On a GoFundMe page set up by Ruth, Leah wrote about how she’s doing.

“This is our life right now. Staring outside the glass, watching every day go by, business as usual. Except it’s not business as usual. It’s frozen into a new reality. I’m grappling to under-stand just what this reality looks like for me and Ryan, and my boys, and my parents, and my family, and my everyone,” she says.

“People keep saying I’m so strong, but they don’t see me here. In fits of emotions I can’t control. I don’t feel strong. Thankfully everyone around me is being strong, lifting my weary body...Ryan’s been my rock, as every-one who knows him would expect....”

Ruth says Leah is currently on maternity leave from Studio 3, where she worked as an esthetician.

“She is generous, kind, person-

able, compassionate and loves people with all her heart,” says Ruth, adding that Leah is a fighter, having tackled another tough medical condition with her oldest boy, Oliver.

Last year, he was diagnosed with Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS) and a neurological disorder, which was an extremely devastating time for Leah and Ryan, says Ruth.

CAS is an uncommon speech dis-order in which a child has difficulty making accurate movements when speaking because the brain has dif-ficulty directing or coordinating the movements, according to the Mayo Clinic website.

Leah became Oliver’s advocate and found the best therapy and care for him, part of which took their family to Detroit, Michigan to the Kaufman Children’s Centre for two weeks of intensive therapy.

“She would move heaven and earth to get the best care and future for her son,” says Ruth. Now the focus is on Leah and the cost of the whole family moving, and living in Vancouver without working is substantial.

“We don’t know what the future holds at this point, but we know that the cost of travel, accommodations and childcare will be added to their bills, mortgage, and already weighty life expenses,” says Ruth.

Ruth and Leah’s mom, Moe Ro-senau, has also moved down to Van-couver to help with Leah’s care. She will be living with Leah and her family to share the childcare and caregiving for Leah.

Fundraisers are being planned, in-cluding one at Leah’s workplace Stu-dio 3, called Love for Leah on May 22. Others include a large garage sale, which is already accepting donations: call Jessica 250-641-0453.

Terrace Kin Kamp demolishedTHE TERRACE Kinsmen”s Kin Kamp came crashing down as a demolition crew began to remove the buildings to make way for new ones after 50-some years May 12.

An excavator from Jock’s Excavating began pulling down the buildings and lling a dump truck from J.L. Excavating with the pieces for two days last week.

Salvagers had been out at the site for a week taking all the wood and some vinyl siding that could be reused.

The property was originally acquired

from the provincial government via a lengthy lease by the Prince Rupert Kins-men club in the late 1940s.

In return for the lease, the club made a commitment to use the property as a chil-dren’s camp.

That commitment continued when the Terrace Kinsmen took over the property from the Prince Rupert Kinsmen.

The site has hosted a variety of events including weddings, family reunions and the Kinsmen annual Kermode Bear Swim that kicks off the New Year in which any-

one who wants to brave the cold jumps in the lake under watchful eyes of the search and rescue water rescue team and para-medics.

Kinsmen say the new camp will have a number of stand-alone cabins, possibly six to eight that can sleep about 60 people, a concrete washroom building with a utility room attached and a cookhouse.

The cookhouse, a modular unit, is ex-pected to be the rst of the new buildings to be placed at the site. There will still be camping and RV facilities there too.

TERRACE RCMP responded to ap-proximately 21 calls for service from May 9th, 8 a.m. till May 10th 8 a.m.

During the same time period, three people were lodged in Terrace cells – two of these people were lodged for intoxication.

MP leery of leader bid“These are the people who hired me and, in this

job, they are my first priority,” he said.“Some like the idea of being in a riding where

the MP would be the leader of a party because of the attention it would bring to rural issues,” said Cullen.

“Others say a MP in that position wouldn’t be able to pay attention to local issues,” he added.

Still, when weighing all of the factors, Cullen said he’s keeping an open mind. “There have been a lot of discussions with my family,” he said.

To date Cullen is not aware of any formal or in-

formal group of NDP members forming to support a leadership bid.

“Some of the old [leadership] committee have called and said they’re ready to help,” said Cullen.

Senior NDP federal officials met over the week-end to thrash out when a leadership convention would be held and to set the rules for how the race would be run.

Speaking in advance of those deliberations, Cul-len said his ultimate decision on running or not run-ning wouldn’t depend on whether there a leader-ship convention is held sooner rather than later.

From front

Fort McMurray familyreturning to normal life

“But we met the principal and they gave her everything that she needed. They let her pick out a new backpack, they gave her supplies, they put her in the hot lunch and breakfast program all for free.”

A local gymnastics club also provided spots for both the daughters free of charge. “We’re just trying to establish a routine, that is the best way we can settle,” Jen explained. “[Madelyn] goes to school, they’re both going to be in gymnastics. We’re just trying to get back that sense of normal.”

Lee was an hour and a half away from home at work when the evacuation of Fort McMurray start-ed on May 3, but he wasn’t worried because the first reports stated that the fire was still some dis-tance from their home.

“It pretty much went from nothing to evacuation in a couple of hours – it got bad pretty fast,” Jen

reflected. By the time Lee arrived home that day, the entire town was being evacuated.

“We didn’t know if we were going to be gone for a couple of days or a week, we kind of packed for week, but now we’re probably talking about three months or so,” she continued.

Since registering with the Red Cross, the Suur-hoffs have been receiving updates from the Alberta government by email and phone. An estimate of how long it will take before residents can return to Fort McMurray is expected to be released this week.

Lee and Jen are eager to head back and start re-building. “The thing about Fort McMurray is the community is amazing, just like Terrace is here,” said Lee. “I don’t think the community will take a whole lot to come back.”

He wasn’t wearing pantsTHE TERRACE RCMP detach-ment reports that officers last week encountered a man with no pants on sitting in a vehicle.

Officers arrested the man who then provided two samples of breath with each being more than double the legal limit.

Charge recommendations have been forwarded to Crown Coun-sel.

In a separate incident, police say they seized a loaded handgun from a motel room. Charges in-volving a 46-year-old man are be-ing forwarded to Crown Counsel.

Wednesday, May 18, 2016 - Terrace Stadard A13www.terracestandard.com BUSINESS NEWS

THE CITY of Terrace is expanding its efforts to clean up and then sell land that it owns which was once used for in-dustrial purposes.

This time it has hired a contractor to install monitoring wells on three parcels of land totalling 6.13 hectares along and adjacent to the 5000 block of Keith in the heart of the city’s light industrial area.

That is to provide information on what is underground to then de-termine what is needed for the city to obtain en-vironmental clearance from the province for the property, so that it can more easily sell the parcels.

Properties once used for industrial purposes are called “brownfield” and any contaminants found in the soil must be dealt with before an environment all-clear is given by the province.

“We will know in the

next couple of months what the work plan will be based on the data analysis,” says city economic development officer Danielle Myles, adding that costs won’t be known until later.

But the city has set aside $250,000 from its land acquisition reserve fund to pay for what-ever is planned for the three parcels, she said.

That fund was bol-stered several years ago when the city sold just over two hectares on the northwest corner at the intersection of Keith and Kenney for $1.025-million to the company which owns the Chrysler and Toyota dealerships here.

Two of the city par-cels are west along the 5000 block of Keith from the above two hectares and the third is north of the two hec-tares and bounded on the north by the CN line.

The city has no ac-tive potential purchas-ers for the parcels but has received inquiries, said Myles.

“We are carrying out this work independ-ently and have shared the same information about the property and possible timelines for redevelopment of the property with any proponent that has ex-

pressed interest,” she said.

One interested party is the Pomeroy Group, the owner of the Chan-ces gaming centre here, which has been scout-ing locations in and around Terrace with an eye to a large develop-ment incorporating a hotel, meeting spaces and a casino.

The city unveiled

two years ago what it is calling the Keith Es-tates Neighbourhood Concept Plan taking in the city-owned parcels and that which belongs to private interests.

In total, the plan would involve 29 hec-tares along the north side of the 5000 block of Keith.

Wednesday, May 18, 2016 - Terrace Stadard A15www.terracestandard.com BUSINESS NEWS

That area is bisected by Kenney and then runs east to the Sande Overpass.

It calls for a blend of residential and commer-cial development, citing the need for both given the potential for growth in the city and region should large scale in-dustrial development ever take place.

The land west of the Keith and Kenney inter-section once formed the log yard for a large saw-mill owned by Skeena Cellulose which was located on the land running east of the intersection toward the Sande Overpass.

Skeena Cellulose’s parent, Repap, began experiencing difficul-ties in the late 1990s and eventually went out of business.

A local company called the Terrace Lum-ber Company bought the mill but closed it soon after, setting the stage for a series of events which resulted in the city acquiring the majority of the saw-mill lands after taxes weren’t paid.

This is the second time the city has sought to turn a brownfield lo-cation it owns into a sellable commodity.

It is still seeking the final environmental all-clear from the province so it can close out the sale of a majority of the former Terrace Co-op

lands along Greig to a Calgary-based hotel company called Superi-or Lodging.

The sale of 2.79 acres for $877,500 was first announced three years ago but has been waiting on the prov-ince’s environmental green light.

That location on Greig between Ka-lum and Emerson was once the location of a thriving retail and food shopping complex, in-cluding a gasbar.

But it closed in the late 1990s after the ar-ea’s once dominant for-est industry crashed.

The property was then purchased by a private developer who then sold it to the city for $1-million in 2005, a move which sparked controversy. And it was the city that eventually demolished the shop-ping centre building in the expectation the land would be more attract-ive to prospective pur-chasers.

Radio station eyes expansionNORTHERN NATIVE Broadcasting, the parent company of CFNR, has applied to expand with two radio stations in Vancouver but will have to wait until a court case ends to find out if it’s been successful.

The stations are currently run by Aborigin-al Voices Radio (AVR), which briefly lost its licences in August 2015 when the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Com-mission (CRTC) revoked them after what the CRTC said was “numerous, serious and repeated instances of non-compliance with the regulations and the broadcaster’s conditions of licence.”

AVR filed an application with the Federal Court of Appeal, which stayed the CRTC’s revo-

cation and ordered that AVR’s licences remain in effect until the appeal is finished. The CRTC said it will announce a public process to consider these applications at a later date, if possible.

AVR also has stations in Toronto, Calgary, Edmonton and Ottawa and the CRTC has re-ceived applications from other native broadcast-ers for those if they become available after the court case is completed.

“By order of the Federal Court of Appeal dated August 21, 2015, AVR has been granted leave to appeal the decision revoking its licences in Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton and Ottawa,” said CRTC manager media relations Patricia Valladao.

CLASSIFIED AND display ad deadlines for The Terrace Standard are May 19 at 1 p.m. due to Victoria Day.

KEVIN CAMPBELL/THE NORTHERN VIEW PHOTO

On stageBRONWEN BENNETT, 11, from Art in Motion’s Contemporary Collective dance group was one of the dancers in “Ringmaster” which was performed at the B.C. Annual Dance Competition held last week in Prince Rupert.

DURING THE spring between late May and early June, deer, moose and elk have their fawns and calves. During the spring, people some-times encounter new-born and baby wild-life and Conservation Officer Scott Senkiw cautions that such situ-ations have risks.

Some large ungu-lates, carnivores and even birds can be very protective of their young. Cow moose in particular, can be-come aggressive if they feel their calves are threatened. Moose are pound for pound very powerful animals and deserve a wide berth. Unless observing a calf from the safety of your vehicle it is best to leave the area quickly and quietly. Some babies, particularly carnivores, may also be sick with distemper or rabies.

Every spring the

Conservation Officer Service receives calls from the public indi-cating that they have found and picked up abandoned fawns and calves. What these well meaning individuals don’t understand is that deer, moose and elk are “hider” species, which means the female will hide her young in vege-tation during the first two or three weeks of its life while she is off feeding. The young are well-camouflaged and scentless, and the fe-male will return several times a day to feed and clean her young. If you find a baby wild animal and are concerned that it may be abandoned because of a dead moth-er nearby or an obvious injury, the best thing to do is to contact the Conservation Officer Service for advice.

Picking up the ani-mal is not only the

wrong thing to do, it is also illegal. The same principle applies to baby birds. Their best chance for survival is to remain in the wild and if a baby bird has fall-en out of its nest, gent-ly return it. The most common misconception is that the mother, bird or otherwise, will reject a baby if it is handled by a human. This is not true, but a mother may not return if people or pets spend too much time in the area. The best option is not to handle wildlife, and if concerned contact the Conservation Officer Service’s Call Center at 1-877-952-7277 RAPP (Report All Poachers and Polluters).

One final tip – Please slow down while driv-ing and watch for wild-life, and slow down if you see any wildlife as they may suddenly move on to the road.

Conservation warns to leave baby wildlife

THIEVES MADE off with several large unique items from a property on St. Croix Creek east of Terrace between Chimdemash Creek and Legate Creek sometime during the last couple of weeks of April, report Terrace RCMP.

The property used to be an old settlement with several unique items on it. The entirety of stolen items would require several people to maneuver the items, knowledge of how to do it, and a truck with a hitch, says Constable Angela Rabut from the Terrace RCMP.

The items stolen were a Karavan mobile sluice plant valued at $4,000, a load of cedar lumber, and an antique Swedish saw.

If you have seen these items or have information, contact the Terrace RCMP at (250)638-7400 or an-onymously through Crime Stoppers by tele-phone at 1-800-222-TIPS, online at www.terracecrimestoppers.ca or by texting TERRACE plus your message to 274637 (CRIMES).

GIRL GUIDES from Haze l ton ,Smi thers , Kitimat and Terrace visited a historical land-mark here in Terrace at a recent Girl Guide rally held at the 747 Air Ca-det Hall.

This particular war bunker is one of several in the Terrace area and the girls were fortunate to have Debbie Let-awski of George Little House to give them some of its history.

They were also en-tertained by Paul Haw-kins’ stories of the Bombadier aircraft, and how it was used to transport over 100 rein-deer to a breeding farm in Alberta.

Thank you to Yvonne Moen for arranging the outing and Rick for his assistance as well.

Girl guides see local war history

YOUNG PEOPLE from the local area display their artwork this month at the art gallery.

THE PIONEER home formerly housing a doctor’s business next to the farmers market now invites the public to come see and buy antiques.

Antiques, Artisans and Oddities opened in the green and white house that was the location for the practice of Dr. Francis Osei-Tutu, the now-retired urol-ogist.

Debbie Letawski says the building is being leased and artists were invited to have their work included.

Several artisans who aren’t in another location show their creations here too.

The mandate is to support the artists and shop local.

While Letawski’s business is the dis-play of antiques and other works at the George Little House, her business part-ner, Julie Langille, does upcycling and runs this business.

The building is the original Haugland House, built in 1939, and sits on its ori-ginal spot, unlike other pioneer houses that have been moved.

Each upstairs room even has its own theme.

New spot to see art

Memories in the HeartFeel no guilt in laughter, he knows how much you care

Feel no sorrow in smile that he's not here to share You cannot grieve forever, he would not want you to He'd hope that you carry on, the way you always do

So talk about the good times and the ways you showed you careThe days you spent together, all the happiness you shared

Let memories surround you.

A word someone may sayWill suddenly recapture a time, an hour, a day

That brings him back as clearly as though he were still hereAnd fills you with the feelings that he is always near

For if you keep these moments, you will never be apartAnd he will live forever locked safe within your heart

Noel Martel December 25, 1934 to April 27, 2016

Loved but not forgotten. It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of a loving husband, father, father-in-law, grandpa, brother and good friend. Noel passed away after a noble fi ght against cancer. He was predeceased by his mother Helen, father Napoleon, beloved wife Joyce, granddaugh-ter Melissa, grandsons, Charles and Austin. He is survived by his second wife Phyllis, his four sons, Patrick (Maggie), Dennis (Mary-Ann), Larry (Allison), Victor (Eduarda), his loving grandchildren, Katerina, Sofi e, Mercedes, Morgan, Michelle, Steve, Andrew, David, Logan, Katrina, his dear sister Cordelie (Joe), nephews, nieces, cousins and many friends.

Noel was born in Bonnyville, Alberta. After serving time in the RCAF stationed in Eastern Canada he decided to move back to the west. He lived most of his life in BC and in 1966 decided to make Terrace his home. He loved fi shing on his boat and would take any opportunity to be out at sea. Noel was employed by the BC Forest Service. As a member of the Elks Club for 50 years he made many close friends.

The family would like to thank Dr. Moolman, Dr. Fourie, Dave and Dawn Parker, the staff at Terraceview Lodge, Northern Health Home Support, Hospice Society, Meals on Wheels, Terrace Hospital, the many friends and neigh-bors who provided support.

In lieu of fl owers, Noel would appreciate donations be made to the Canadian Cancer Society. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date and will be announced on the radio.

We will miss you dearly but you will always be in our heart.

It is with profound sadness in our hearts that we announce the sudden passing of our beloved Ryan Smoley at the age of 33 years. He will be hugely missed, but never forgotten. Ryan had a dazzling smile, infectious laugh and lit up a room as soon as he walked into it. Ryan loved life and lived every moment to its fullest.

He is survived by; Mother - Angelika Smoley (Chris), Father - Rick Smoley (Jeanette), Brother - Jordan, Sister - Sarah (Kris) and family, Daughter - Sofi a, Son - Hayden, Grandparents - Mike and Sandy Murray as well as Elaine Juetten, Soulmate - Chelsey Cyr.

By JACKIE LIEUWEN

THREE GENERATIONS of a now Terrace-based family are running the Copenhagen marathon together to celebrate the 50th anniversary of when their family immigrated to Canada.

Sisters Sue Simpson and Bir-gitte Bartlett (previously Brørup) emigrated as children from Den-mark, and are running the mara-thon May 22 with Bartlett’s daugh-ters Nina Peden and Mary Denton, and grand daughter Araya Bartlett.

Inspired partly by the historical and cultural connection to Copen-hagen, but also the drive to stay healthy, the family members have varying degrees of running experi-ence, most inspired by Simpson.

Simpson started running for general health in 1980 at age 27, and has run over 20 marathons in the last 36 years.

“It’s sort of a natural progression for a runner, especially once you get hooked,” said Simpson. “Some people are happy with 5-10K runs, but for me, my strength was defin-itely in the distances.”

When she is not training, Simp-son runs close to 13 km five days a week, and says in her younger days she ran 16 km every day. She was the first Canadian woman to finish the Vancouver BMO marathon in both 1984 and 1985, and her best time was 2 hours and 53 minutes.

A marathon is “a good stress reliever and there’s good cama-raderie,” Simpson said, adding that running is easy to fit into any schedule.

“You can do it at any time, you don’t need a gym to be open or anything special. You can just go,” she said, adding that she runs out-side year-round, any temperature.

Simpson was age 13 and Bartlett 14 when they emigrated with their parents Erik and Grethe Brørup and sisters Marianne and Nina in 1966. Bartlett remembers the Pol-ish ocean liner she and her family took when they left Copenhagen: It was called the MS Batory, carried close to 1,000 people, and was like a cruise ship, she said.

“They had different menus every day… there was a swimming pool, and there was tennis and ping pong on the decks… a lot of the Polish immigrants didn’t have cab-ins, and they actually camped out on the floor,” Bartlett said.

She added that she and her family shared two cabins and were

among the few who did not get seasick during the 10 day journey across the Atlantic Ocean and up the St. Lawrence River to Mont-real, Québec. Bartlett’s father Erik Brørup was a bush pilot and moved the family because he was recruited to Canada for work. They moved around and lived in several different communities in Ontario for three years before moving to Terrace in 1969.

Bartlett says she has returned to Copenhagen close to 10 times since they left 50 years ago, but her trip this month may be a farewell to her home country, since her closest aunt and uncles have passed away.

“I feel like we have lost our connections to Denmark now… so I almost feel like it is a goodbye to Denmark for me,” Bartlett said.

Running a marathon in the final visit is also fitting because her par-ents were the ones who instilled patterns of healthy living.

“My parents have been a great inspiration to our whole family for being active and eating healthy,” Bartlett said.

Over 10,000 people are ex-pected to run the Copenhagen marathon, which takes a flat, 42-kilometre route through down-town and past some of the most at-tractive sites in the city, including the little mermaid and royal palace.

Bartlett says they plan to visit the school and park where she and her sisters grew up, as well as tour the Viking Ship Museum, some Denmark castles, and a few sites in Iceland. Three friends from Prince Rupert, Samantha Kasdorf, and Tanis and Tammy Palmer, are also coming on the trip and running the marathon.

Barlett said she started running in 2008 and has run one marathon before, a challenge between herself and her daughter Mary Denton. Denton said she made an off-hand-ed joke that they had to run a mara-thon together before Barlett’s 60th birthday and Denton’s 30th, and Bartlett held her to it. So in 2011, Bartlett ran one with Simpson in New York and Denton ran in Vic-toria. Denton has run the Victoria marathon twice more since then.

“My aunt has always been a bit of an inspiration to me,” said Den-ton of Simpson. “Running a mara-thon is a huge accomplishment.”

Denton said she did not enjoy running at first, but did it to stay healthy, and now she has learned to love it.

Denton’s daughter Araya, 14, is involved in a variety of sports and has run up to 12 km before. Due to a recent injury, she is not running the full marathon in Copenhagen, but plans to run a shorter race.

Peden is the fifth family mem-ber going to Copenhagen, and this

marathon will be her first.“At first I wasn’t committed to

going. I said I would just train as if I am going,” Peden said. “Then all of a sudden I was going… I never thought I would be running no 30-some kilometres. Now it will be 42. It’s crazy.” Peden has run off and on for four years, more con-sistently in the last two, and started marathon training in January with runs as long as 16 km, which have been building since then.

Each of the family members have their own training schedule, with some running 30-50 km/week, others 60-80 km/week, and Simpson up to 100km/week. (For reference, Terrace to Kitimat is ap-prox. 60 km).

For Denton, the Copenhagen trip is about seeing her cultur-al heritage, seeing some of her mom’s history, and spending time with family.

“It’s a great opportunity to go and experience the [Danish] cul-ture, and for my mom to be able to take us around and show us the different places,” she said. She is looking forward to the time with her daughter, and enjoying the experience with the others of her family and her friends.

“I don’t think many families take the opportunity to do things like this together and encourage each other with a healthy life-style… I’ve got three children and I hope that I would be able to in-spire them to stay healthy the same way my mom has inspired me,” she said.

Smashing successTERRACE JUNIOR badminton player Lisa Nicholson and Prince George player Kiana Gallagher won undefeated in junior girls doubles at the North Central Badminton Tourna-ment in Prince George on April 29-May 2. Nicholson, age 14, also won second in the U17 division, playing a level above her age, against 24 northern competitors.

“My parents have been a great inspiration to our whole family.”


BOTH THE U16 and U15 girls vol-leyball teams from Terrace won gold in provincials in Abbotsford early this month.

U16 Terrace Rage won all three round robin games, beating teams from Vernon, Whiterock and Victoria and finishing first in their pool. Next they faced BCO Vancouver, where they came out strong and beat the team in two sets, winning 25-19 and 15-12.

In semifinals, the Rage faced Ke-lowna in a strong, close match.

“They had some great players and a big power hitter that pounds the ball,” said coach Mark Neid.

But the Rage blockers shut down the big hitter and the team ran mid-dle attacks and made strong serves to earn the victory in three sets (with scores 25-18, 22-25, and 15-9).

The girls were riding high as they launched into the final game against Burnaby Action.

The score stayed close and jumped back and forth in the first set, but the Rage squeaked out a tight win 28-26. In the second set, the Rage took ad-vantage of a few Burnaby errors, and won 25-20 to earn the gold.

“We won as a unit, with all play-ers contributing,” said Neid. “Our team has worked hard this past month on passing to be able to run a quick offence which other teams couldn’t keep up with.”

The girls head to Calgary for nationals on May 21-23, and then six members of the team are trying out for BC regional team in Prince George on May 28.

Raging U15 girlsU15 TERRACE Rage also earned gold in their provincials, competing against 12 other teams in their div-ision. They won their first two round robin games in two straight sets against Victoria Red and then Van-couver Black Voltage. Then they beat

Penticton Volleytech in a tight match with three close sets to earn a bye into the semifinals.

They faced Burnaby Focus Primo in the semifinal game, which was “very challenging and physically ex-hausting,” said coach Frank Marrelli.

They won the first set 25-20 and lost the second 18-25. In the third set, Jessica Falardeau led the team with strong serves, and the girls won the set 15-2.

“Both teams battled for con-sistency but nerves and confidence took over,” said Marrelli of the match.

In finals, the Rage faced North Shore Stars from Vancouver.

Tired from the previous match, the Rage fell behind very quickly in the first set and suffered a dismal 7-25 loss.

But the Rage rallied back in the second set, with great setting and smart attacks to earn a 25-20 win.

Both teams stepped it up in the third set, fighting some nerves, but strong serving allowed Rage to beat the Stars 15-12 and win the gold.

Marrelli said it was an amazing achievement for a team with only nine players, four of whom had very lim-ited tournament experience compared to other teams. He and co-coach Jen-nifer Lindstrom thank parents and the Terrace community for their support.

Terrace’s U17 girls won fourth in division 3 nationals, which is one level higher competition then before. Coach Tyler Clarke said they chose to compete at that level in order to chal-lenge the girls with tougher competi-tion, and it really elevated their game.

The U14 girls finished 15th in provincials, competing against very talented teams. They were ‘in’ every game they played and had some strong rallies, despite limited ex-perience, said coach Carmen Didier. They “are strong, coachable athletes and assuming they continue to play... I believe we will see [future medals].”

The day’s last light lit the tops of the riffle spilling into the Cabin Pool and those spots farther up-stream where protuberant rocks

punctuated the long glide below the bridge. The night and the water were warm.

Some night hawks on high and some swifts below them testified that there were a few bugs in the air, but on this particular night some key factor was unaligned for there was no significant hatch.

I made my way up the trail. The lights from the lodge and those in Bill and Shir-ley’s cabin cast reflections across the flat water. There were no anglers working the normally magical moments before dark. Or so I thought until I stopped for one last look at the river and spotted a fisherman on the far side just below the bridge. His rod was bent.

I leaned my pole against some stream side shrubbery and lifted my binoculars. I found and focused on the angler just as he was slipping what appeared to be a nice rainbow into the river. With the light all but gone, the action was all in silhouette. The man was making short casts upstream and following the drift of his fly in such a way that he had to be using a nymph.

As I watched, he released two more fish. I picked up my rod and quickened my pace over the final 100 metres of trail so that I was able to see him hook, play, then re-

lease another fish from the better vantage point afforded by the bridge.

Before I could cross the span and interro-gate him, the angler had walked up the bank and crossed the road. He made his way past the cabin we were renting then entered the one below it. I realized then that he was the father of the father and son duo from Prince George that we’d briefly met on Bill’s porch the day be-fore. Did I really need to know more than the fact that he was using a nymph? I thought about that and, ultimately, thought not. After all, I had plenty of nymphs, weighted and un-weighted, in my fly wallet, and in amongst those patterns I had a dozen Serb Specials.

Dustin Kovacvic is a steelhead/salmon guide, but he would be quick to tell you his first love is trout fishing. He’s good at it too, so good that he should probably be banned from trout streams so that those of us who find ourselves fishing a particular stream alongside him will have a reason-able chance to hook a fish.

Back when he was a young timber cruis-er, Dustin assembled a deadly damsel fly nymph imitation that proved irresistible to trout. It was a small pat-tern with an olive cast, a metal bead at its head and glass beads inter-spersed with olive fur for a body and a barred olive marabou tail.

I told Webb of the damsel nymph and the prodigious catches I had witnessed Dustin make with it. The next time we went out together, Doug pulled a crude approxi-mation befitting my in-

adequate description dressed on a hook far larger than that used by Dustin from his box and asked me if it resembled Dustin’s creation. I said yes, but it really didn’t.

We proceeded to fish behind salmon with egg imitations. We caught lots of trout. We thought we’d contacted every fish in the pool. Doug removed his egg and tied on his gargantuan imitation of Dustin’s pattern and proceeded to hook more fish – a lot more. We knew Dustin’s ancestors were from Yugoslavia, but we didn’t know

whether his antecedents were Serbian or Croatian so we alternatively referred to the fly as the Croatian Comet, the Bosnian Bomber, and the Serbian Special, finally settling on the latter.

The Serb had never failed to turn trout. There was no reason to assume that it would fail to fool the Rainbow Trout of the Stellako. I fastened one to my tippet, and soldiered forth the next evening just before night fall, and fail it did.

I fished a light version high in the cur-rent without getting so much as a sniff. I fished a more heavily weighted model on and just above the bottom and caught only a couple of rocks. I fished a number of ap-pealing spots finishing off in the lie below the cafe where I’d seen the angler from Prince George do so well, and did nothing at all. What was going on? I returned to the cabin more puzzled than annoyed.

We were due to leave the next day. Minutes before our departure, I was for-tunate to bump into that father from Prince George in front of the lodge.

“I saw you do well the other night,” I said. He hesitated.

“Oh yeah?” he said.“Nymphing, eh?”“Yeah, drifting a Copper John,” he said. Oh, I said knowingly, not wanting to

admit I’d never heard of a Copper John.... to be continued...

Business-focused survey found usefulBy BEN BENGTSON

AN IN-PERSON sur-vey designed by the city to learn about the con-dition of the local busi-ness community will be more illuminating when it is conducted a few more times and they can pinpoint trends, say survey volunteers and organizers.

The Terrace busi-ness walk survey was completed on Feb. 17 and the results were released at the end of April.

According to the re-sults, 14 volunteers sur-veyed 44 businesses in Terrace and another 10 in Thornhill. The aim was to gather informa-tion about what was go-ing well for businesses in the area, what needed improvement and what specific challenges they still faced.

Of the surveyed par-ticipants, 43 per cent said their businesses had shrunk or were shrinking compared to the same time last year; 37 per cent said busi-ness was going steady; and 20 per cent said business had actually grown over the last year.

City economic de-velopment manager Danielle Myles said answers by partici-pants on the question of what challenges their businesses were facing could shed some light on why many were shrinking.

“Uncertain econom-ic climate and compe-tition were two of the top answers, along with staffing and cost in-creases,” Myles said.

Terrace & District Chamber of Commerce executive director Erika Magnuson-Ford, who was one of the volun-teers that helped con-duct the survey, said conducting more sur-veys will then help in establishing ongoing issues.

“Once we’ve done the business walk for a few years, it’ll be a lot easier to actually see what people are saying

and then see a trend,” Magnuson-Ford said.

Myles agreed the results of the survey would be more benefi-cial once it’s been con-ducted for a longer per-iod, and she added that “a business survey is a tool for tracking trends and issues over time.”

Magnuson-Ford said that, for example, one person interviewed was shrinking his business on purpose because he was planning to retire.

That demonstrates how conclusions are hard to establish now

and reasons may be var-ied among the 43 per cent of businesses who reported fluctuating growth and shrinkage.

“He’s deliberately not taking on new cli-ents,” Magnuson-Ford said.

She did say that the current pause in LNG project development with proponents still de-ciding if they will pro-ceed or not has contrib-uted to a decrease for some business owners.

Dennis Lissimore, a survey volunteer and coordinator for the

Terrace Downtown Improvement Area, said there was a lot of growth last year t be-cause of the promise of LNG, but not so much this year.

“This year people have just kind of pulled back and they’re play-ing wait-and-see be-cause there’s all kinds of things in the pipe but the pipe’s not there yet,” Lissimore said.

Still, half of those surveyed said they ex-pected their businesses to be growing in the next year or two.

Lissimore also said the purpose of the sur-vey was to get a sense of the business commun-ity’s pulse and that con-ducting more surveys in the coming months and years would be neces-sary to really produce worthwhile results.

“Once you get a few years of these sur-veys then you’ve got some data that you can go back on and have something to look at. It’s hard to really draw any great conclusions from it other than the fact that businesses are

down a little bit from last year, but you’ve got to remember: last year was a pretty good year,” Lissimore said.

M a g n u s o n - F o r d added: “We weren’t slotting in 20-30 min-utes to talk with these people. The purpose of this survey was to try and get a snapshot.”

Magnuson-Ford and Lissimore also said it was important for busi-ness groups to speak face to face with dif-ferent members of the business community.

“For people to see all these different groups – the city, the chamber, a couple different volun-teers from different or-ganizations – all come together and say, ‘We want to hear from you,’ people really appre-ciated that,” Magnus-

on-Ford said. “For the most part,

the participation was fantastic,” added Lis-simore. “They were quite keen about par-ticipating in it and an-swering the questions. Once you start going out and speaking with 60 businesses or so, you really get a real feel of what it’s like at the ground level.”

Myles also said that encouraging people to buy local through Love Terrace, a program that connects people with independent shops and services in the com-munity, is important.

Fifteen per cent of surveyed businesses said promoting local services and products needs to be further en-couraged.
