Province forgives Shames’ debt THE LARGEST financial obstacle to My Mountain Co-op’s purchase of the Shames Mountain ski facility has been removed.

The provincial government late last week approved two measures to deal with hun-dreds of thousands of dollars in debt and interest owed to it by the facility’s current owner, the Shames Mountain Ski Corpora-tion, and by the co-op.

The largest amount is debt totaling $429,010.97 plus interest for a tourism de-velopment loan taken out by the ski corpora-tion in 1988.

A proposal made by Shames Mountain to pay $125,000 for a full settlement of the loan and interest has been accepted by the province.

Shames Mountain must pay the money

by Dec. 31, 2012 for the province to forgive $304,010.97 in debt plus interest.

A further $130,000 that wasn’t paid by Shames Mountain Ski Corporation in royal-ties for the use of Shames Mountain itself will be dealt with by a combination of for-giveness and debt restructuring.

The province will forgive the interest por-tion of the royalty debt which is $46,767 and the co-op has agreed to pay the remaining $88,579 spread out over the next 10 years.

Royalties paid by ski facility owners to the provincial government amount to two per cent of chairlift revenues each year as a form of rent to use the land on which the fa-cility operates.

Shames Mountain and the co-op struck a sales deal last year in which the co-op took

on responsibility for the unpaid royalties.But the overall sales deal could not be

completed until the debt owed to the prov-ince had been dealt with.

The co-op operated the mountain last year under a lease deal with the ski corpora-tion, and was prepared to do the same this season.

News of the financial deal came out at the co-op’s Nov. 26 annual general meeting.

Provincial forests and natural resources minister Steve Thomson, the minister re-sponsible for Crown land, said the deal en-ables the co-op to buy the ski hill assets, al-lowing it to offer a recreational outlet for the region.

“We are satisfied they have the ability to make this work.” said Thomson of the co-

op. “They lined up corporate sponsors and they’re using their own resources and ideas.”

He said the province agreeing to for-give interest and write off a portion of the decades-old tourism development loan was the only realistic option it could make given the alternative.

“If the purchase agreement didn’t go through, the ski corporation would have gone into bankruptcy. There would be jobs lost and an impact on the community,” said Thomson.

The province would have ended up with the ski hill assets in its possession and would have to face any and all costs associated with their disposal, he said.

Skeena Sawmill’S log buyer, Brendan wilson says he is speaking with First nations further north who have clearing contracts along BC Hydro’s northwest Transmission line.

Sawmill buys power line logs RECENTLY-REOPENED Skee-na Sawmills says it wants to buy all of the trees it can from those that have been cut down to make room for BC Hydro’s Northwest Transmission Line.

The mill took delivery Nov. 22 of 14 truckloads of logs, pur-chased from the Kitsumkalum First Nation’s Kalum Ventures forestry arm which has the con-tract to clear 68 kilometres of the 344km power line right-of-way from BC Hydro’s Skeena Substa-tion just south of Terrace to Bob Quinn on Hwy37 North.

“We’d love to have access to that wood, we can use more wood,” said Gian Sandhu, who consults for Skeena Sawmills owner Roc Holdings Ltd., about wood that will be cut along the route farther north.

“Our people have been talk-ing to First Nations bands,” said Sandhu about getting more NTL right-of-way logs for the mill. “They’re continuing to negotiate.”

Skeena Sawmills opened its doors Nov. 5, starting by running one full shift of workers. It wants to get the mill up to two shifts but that would require an additional 450,000 cubic metres of wood, according to Sandhu.

Skeena Sawmills, which does have markets for what it can pro-

duce, has for months been saying that a shortage of logs is one of its biggest challenges.

Last week, it shipped its first order.

Save for specific work such as chipping, the sawmill has been closed since the fall of 2007 and the sale to Roc Holdings of the equipment and wood licences was welcomed in the area.

Sandhu said the potential to use much of the 490,000 cubic metres of wood being logged off for the transmission line right of way is attractive.

Mill log buyer Brendan Wil-son is now speaking with First Nations further north who have clearing contracts.

He said that because Skeena Sawmills opened in late fall, much of the Kitsumkalum wood had already been accounted for.

“If Skeena Sawmills wasn’t around we would have probably shipped that wood down to Prince Rupert like we have with every-thing else,” said Lyle Bolton of Kalum Ventures of the purchase and delivery made last week.

“All the saw logs and the pulp logs have been separated,” Bolton said. “All that is getting burned …(are) tree tops and brush.”

BC Hydro has been under fire recently for allowing large amounts of wood to be burned along the right-of-way of its $561 million proj-ect to deliver depend-able power up Hwy 37 North.

Critics have said the wood should more properly be used in sawmills and other wood-processing facili-ties.

BC Hydro has de-flected the criticism, saying that it signed contracts with First Na-tions along the route to handle all aspects of tree clearing.

One of the factors that has been cited as affecting moving wood is the high cost of trans-portation from where it is cut to where it could be processed.

“Nobody wants to move the wood at a loss,” said local forester Rick Brouwer.

But he noted that the highest cost of north-western logging is ac-tually getting into the forest.

“It’s a sunk cost al-ready,” said Brouwer of money spent falling trees, meaning that it would have been spent regardless. In economic terms, it needn’t be fac-tored into the sale price of a log, he added.

Still, Thomson said forgiving debt and interest should not be tak-en as a sign that other entities who owe money to the province can ex-pect the same kind of treatment.

“This only forgives the interest. The [ski] corporation has agreed to a settlement amount and the co-op

has a repayment plan,” he said.Shames Mountain Ski Corpora-

tion president Gerry Martin said the corporation has no assets and that he and its five directors will pay the $125,000 from their own pockets.

“All of the paperwork’s been

done and the approvals have been given. We’re just waiting for the [Order in Council] to be done,” he said.

An Order in Council is a docu-ment signed by cabinet ministers authorizing a specific action or ac-tivity.

Shames Mountain Ski Corpora-tion has for years been looking for new owners for the facility located off of Hwy16 west of Terrace.

Citing continuing losses and the desire of board members, after more than 20 years of operating the facility, to retire, the corpora-

tion had been contemplating clo-sure.

That prompted the formation of Friends of Shames to investigate ownership alternatives, resulting in the formation of the non-profit entity My Recreational Mountain Co-op last year.

OTTO LINDSTROM at the cenotaph in front of city hall at a 2010 ceremony noting Victory in Europe (VE) Day in 1945.

Area loses oldest vetof Second World WarTHE CITY’S oldest veteran passed away suddenly last week.

Otto Lindstrom, 96, died in Mills Memorial Hospital Nov. 23.

Longtime friend and legion member Charlie Meek said Lindstrom was in hospital for a few days as he wasn’t feeling well and Meek would visit him two or three times a day.

“It was quite a shock,” said Meek about Lindstrom’s death.

“He was a real dar-ling I can assure you. I’m just heartbroken, I really am.”

Lindstrom was well-known and well-respected at Branch 13 of the Royal Canadian Legion here, said Meek.

He said Lindstrom would phone him up and they’d go for cof-fee.

Lindstrom was born in Prince Rupert and grew up on the family’s homestead at Remo.

He walked to school, which was Kalum

School.His � rst job came at

10-years-old: going out with his father to work in the bush skidding ce-dar poles.

In 1938, during the late, lean years of the Depression, Lindstrom jumped a boxcar bound for a construction job in Prince Rupert building Fort Barrett.

There was a catch; you had to join the army. He was 22.

When war was de-clared the following year, he stayed in the army. Nobody knew the war would take so long.

“We were going to go over and blow the Germans away in 24 hours and pack it up and go home,” Lindstrom said in an interview in 2004. “Five years, six years later, we � nally did the job.”

Lindstrom was ini-tially stationed at Mani-toba’s Camp Shiloh as an artillery instructor.

In early 1942, he was drafted to an artillery

training centre in Alder-shot, England.

He was 25 or so – practically an old man compared to the teen-aged recruits he taught.

He exchanged the relative calm of Eng-land for the sun and dust, rain and mud of Italy.

Italy is called The Forgotten Campaign because it’s overshad-owed by Normandy, even though it held 20 German divisions at bay as the Allies stormed the beaches in France.

“We are classed as a forgotten army – pe-riod,” Lindstrom said without self-pity in 2004. “Our attitude as far as accomplishment is concerned, if it hadn’t been for the army in It-aly, D-Day would have failed.”

In Italy, Lindstrom was a mechanic and driver, doing forward observation with his commanding of� cer.

In 1945, the Canadi-ans in Italy joined the

Allied forces in north-west Europe.

Lindstrom’s regi-ment ended up in Bel-gium for a rest and new equipment. Then they took part in the libera-tion of Holland, where Canadian troops were to open up a supply route.

Lindstrom � nally re-turned home in 1946.

His occupations in-cluded everything from lighthouse keeping to working at the airport.

He maintained his trapline for more than 75 years.

He met his wife, Fran, at Ma Lambly’s Cafe in 1948 when Fran came to town to work at the old Red Cross Hos-pital.

They were married in 1949.

Even though Lind-strom travelled the world, he said he never found any place better than Terrace.

The final results for the Terrace and District Chamber of Commerce 2012 Business excel-lence awards are in.

Winners in 17 cat-egories were announced at the chamber’s annual gala held nov. 24 at Terrace’s Best Western hotel.

This year, more than 1000 community mem-bers voted for their top pick out of three nomi-nees for each category and nominees and spon-sors alike gathered to hear the announced winners and enjoy food and entertainment.

“The voting went well,” said the cham-bers executive director Carol fielding. “The chamber is very pleased with the nominees that were nominated this year.”

The volunteer of the year award goes to the Thornhill fire Depart-ment, which received more votes than nomi-nees Brian Downie, and Ron & Mavis Ramsey.

The Contributor to the arts award goes to the Skeena Diversity Society. art in Motion Dance Studio and Cathy van Dyk were rival nominees.

Skeena Wild Con-servation Trust was the recipient of this year’s Green award with lakelse Watershed So-ciety and Urban Colour as the second picks.

for Rookie of the Year, Pita Pit took first place over My fitness Centre and Shiny han-

sen’s.Ranjit Dhillon, who

works at Tim hortons downtown, won the 2012 employee of the year award. Ranjit beat out rivals Bruce Cham-pion of Sight and Sound

and Shauna McGinlay of Silvertip Promotions and Signs.

all Season Source for Sports won the Re-tailer if the year award with Cafenera and the flying fish as its con-

tenders.The executive of

the Year award went to Kelly Gingles of na-tional Car Rental. lael McKeown and Shannon Mcallister were con-tenders.

The Skeena Val-ley Therapeutic Mas-sage Clinic won 2012’s home-Based Business award. also nominated were Cleaning Solu-tions and Straight up Doors.

northwest escapes ltd. Took first place out of three for the Tourism excellence award, for which Kitselas Canyon and Split Mountain adventures were also nominated.

This year’s Com-munity Booster award went to the Skeena Valley fall fair. Bruno Belanger and Tony De-melo of Sight & Sound contended for the spot.

The Customer Ser-vice award of the year was won by Sonbadas Steak house. Dr. Vin-cent Drouin DDS and Totem furniture were nominated.

The overall Com-pany of The Year award was taken home by Cambria Gordon ltd. Contenders were Bear Creek Contracting and Mcelhanney Consult-ing.

for making head-lines this year, Bosa Properties was awarded the newsmaker of the Year award. enbridge for its northern Gate-way Pipeline Project and Valard Construction were contenders.

The family friendly Business award went to Dairy Queen which topped the votes of Cambria Gordon and the Terrace Bowling al-ley.

northwest Commu-nity College’s trades department won this year’s excellence in in-novation award. also nominated were Coast Mountain Wireless and Spirit Stones.

and for being one of the top Welcoming and inclusive Workplaces in Terrace, the Canada Safeway location won above Kitsumkalum’s Kalum Quarry and northwest Training.

The PROVinCial cabinet ministers who will either say ‘yes’ or ‘no’ to a $850 mil-lion molybdenum mine northwest of here should be in a position to do so just before Christmas.

That’s when energy, mines and natural gas minister Rich Coleman and environment minister Terry lake are scheduled to receive the results of a review of avanti Mining’s plans for an open pit operation at Kitsault, approximately 200 kilometres by road from Terrace.

avanti filed its plans with the BC en-vironmental assessment Office at the end of april, starting a review of thousands of pages of information for a mine project that would deliver hundreds of jobs for approxi-mately 20 years.

The review was to last 180 days until the

end of October but was extended for three weeks to give officials more time.

a preliminary assessment report from the review is then to be examined by avanti, government officials and first nations be-fore a final document is prepared.

it’s this document that goes to the two cabinet ministers who then have 45 days to make a decision.

That final assessment should be ready be-fore Dec. 21, avanti said in a press release last week.

Company officials earlier said they are confident the mine project will be approved.

avanti has so far spent $70 million on the Kitsault project, including approximately $15 million on environmental studies.

also underway is a federal review which avanti estimates will be finished within two

months of the provincial one. a decision by the federal environment minister would fol-low within three months, avanti added.

Molybdenum has a number of uses, in-cluding as a hardening agent in steel alloys.

avanti officials earlier said they had fo-cussed on preserving water quality at the mine location.

access to Kitsault from Terrace runs through the nass Valley and while the mine location is not within the nisga’a na-tion lands that are part of the nisga’a final agreement land claims treaty, it is within traditional nisga’a territory.

in its filings, avanti outline plans for lo-cal training and hiring a construction work-force and then an operating workforce.

avanti plans to truck out its ore concen-trate using the east-west Cranberry Connec-

tor route that runs approximately 30km from the nass Valley to hwy37 north of Kitwanga.

from there trucks will continue south to hwy16 and then to Vancouver where the concentrate will be loaded onto freighters for delivery overseas.

The Cranberry is designated as a forest service road and is not a highway and is not normally maintained during the winter. avanti would maintain the road meaning it could also be used by others.

While avanti has been pursuing environ-mental approval for its project, it has also been lining up financing.

That includes a preliminary deal to bor-row money from a financial subsidiary of Caterpillar to buy Caterpillar equipment and a similar deal with a German state-owned bank to buy German equipment.

By Kelsey Wiebe

IT WAS, as described later, an “unusual parade” that formed in Terrace on the Saturday morning of Nov. 25, 1944.

Waving banners proclaiming “Down with conscription”, and “The zombies strike back”, the soldiers refused regular duty and were instead reacting to news the govern-ment was going to send 16,000 Home De-fence soldiers to Europe at a crucial stage of the Second World War.

The conscripted Home Defence men were referred to sneeringly as “Zombies.” Borrowed from movies popular during the 1930s, the term suggested that conscripted men lacked the will of their own to volunteer for overseas duty.

On the evening of Friday, Nov. 24, three battalions of these embittered soldiers stock-piled 50,000 rounds of ri� e ammunition, 15,000 rounds of Sten gun ammunition, and four boxes of hand grenades.

All that day they had angrily discussed the announcement of an overseas deployment.

Most of the men in Terrace had not volun-teered for military service. Rather, they had been conscripted into protecting Canada’s na-tional borders as part of the Home Defence.

In 1942, as reinforcements in Europe be-came increasingly urgent, a reluctant Prime Minister Mackenzie King implemented conscription. He maintained that these men would only be forced into compulsory ser-vice within Canada, which was a more palat-able political option.

When the news of the deployment broke on the radio, many of the soldiers in Terrace (and elsewhere) felt betrayed.

They were restless and angry after months of fruitless training in an isolated communi-ty for the defence of a coast that they didn’t believe was in danger.

According to military scholar Reginald Roy, Terrace was likely the most remote military camp of its size in Canada.

Before the Second World War, the town itself numbered under 400 people, with sev-eral hundred more residing in the outlying areas. There were almost no amenities for the approximately 3000 soldiers and 3000

construction workers who � ooded into the area in 1942.

There was not enough fuel in the winter camps to keep warm, fresh food was ex-tremely limited, and an enormous gender gap—perhaps 300 women to 6000 men—led to friction between soldiers and workers, especially during dances.

“You wouldn’t sit out a dance even after spending your teen years as a wall� ower,” recalled Mary Harris in a 1978 oral history.

Because of all of these factors, the fear of being sent to Terrace was used to threaten soldiers into obedience.

Those who were posted here were often miserable, adding to the anger exhibited on that Saturday morning of Nov. 25.

Les Fusiliers du St. Laurent, a mainly French Canadian battalion stationed on the Birch Bench, “came charging down the hill, whooping and shouting like a swarm of an-gry wasps,” remembered Floyd Frank, who witnessed the parade while delivering milk.

Frank noted that the men carried ri� es and had � lled the gas masks hanging around their necks with grenades.

The well-organized men next marched to-ward what is now the Royal Canadian Legion, where they met with the Prince Edward Island Highlanders, a battalion camped at Riverside Park. Together, the group picked up more re-cruits at the Hall St. camp of the Prince Albert Volunteers. Several hundred soldiers marched in the two-hour-long parade.

People gathered along the streets to watch. Some found it exciting. Others, espe-cially those with family in the military, were furious: they saw the men as shirking their duty to protect their country.

Mary Harris remembered that “a sweet little old lady” with several sons overseas “cussed them up one side and down the other.”

Similarly disillusioned soldiers rioted over conscription in Vernon, Prince George, Cour-tenay, Chilliwack, Nanaimo, and Port Alberni.

Though violence and injury occurred elsewhere, the Terrace protest was peaceful and remarkably orderly.

In the report of the court of inquiry or-der afterward, Major-General George R.

Pearkes writes: “It is worthy of note that the discipline of the dissidents within their own ranks was well maintained and their parades and guards were well organized.”

On Nov. 26, the Fusiliers – who were later charged with inciting the protest – composed a message to military of� cials explaining the protest.

“The recruits are not in favour of con-scription,” the telegram read. Given that “all danger of invasion on the Paci� c Coast is passed,” in their opinion, they demanded to return, unmolested, to Quebec. They marched again, this time gathering more than over 1,600 supporters.

Incidentally, many of the senior of� cers stationed in Terrace were in Vancouver for a conference about the conscription crisis when the protest broke out. The command-er of the Mountain Warfare School, acting command of the brigade, instructed junior-ranking of� cers not to do anything, unless the protest became violent.

Very quickly, all non-commissioned of-� cers were stripped of their ranks. “You’re Zombies, just like us,” the protesters jeered.

Men who had been threatened and hack-led by their of� cers in the hopes that they would eventually cave and volunteer for ac-tive service were again bullied, but this time by their fellow soldiers.

“There [are] a number of boys that are de� nitely opposed to this sort of thing,” a war diarist for one of the regiments re-corded, “but [they] are practically forced or threatened to tag along.”

On Monday, Nov. 27, the troops still had not returned to regular duty. Protests else-where had long since wrapped up, but the Terrace movement gained momentum.

Threats to blow up the Skeena Bridge (now known as the Old Bridge) circulated, and no one knew how everything would unfold. Many men, according to military records, were given drugs to calm their over-extended nerves.

An advance group of Prince Albert Vol-unteers attempted to leave Terrace by train, and were prevented from doing so at gun-point.

By Monday evening, senior of� cers had

arrived back in Terrace.The next morning, Nov. 28, one unit

agreed to surrender their arms to a guard.Commanding of� cers threatened the men

with the legal consequences of mutiny and sedition but failed to convince them to return to normal duty.

The situation was of� cially declared a mutiny on Tuesday night, Nov. 29. Con-cerned about the rami� cations of such a dec-laration, the Prime Minister belatedly orga-nized media censorship.

On the same evening, most of the muti-neers gave up, apparently with little resolu-tion of their issues or concerns.

All of the ri� es were relinquished – many with relief – and all of the pilfered ammuni-tion was dumped in the Skeena River.

By Sunday, Dec. 3, all three battalions had been shipped out of Terrace. While charges were laid, there was limited political will to follow through with them.

Apparently, many men jumped off the train that was bringing them home to face charges, while their superior of� cers turned a blind eye.

Charges were dropped for those muti-neers who agreed to serve overseas.

In the end, only a limited number of peo-ple were sentenced. For the most part, the government was happy to let the whole affair fade away quietly.

“It all seems like a bad dream,” war dia-rist Lt. Col. Costin mused.

Indeed, we know little, 68 years later, about the longest lasting mutiny in Canadian history.

It transformed conscription – a predomi-nantly political issue – into a cultural, eco-nomic, and ethical issue. It makes us think, once again, about Terrace’s place within Canada.

ESTABLISHED APRIL 27, 1988

FOLLOWING October’s earth-quake, many cities in B.C. began talking about the Next Big One, an expected earthquake of such a size as to be devastating in its impact and after effects.

City hall, however, has another version of the Next Big One brewing – the next big budget civic project.

So far, it looks as if that’s to be the aquatic centre thanks to a report out-lining a combination of serious de� -ciencies in the current structure and potential for recreational improve-ments. The cost? Northwards of $5 million. But that’s just an estimate.

Yet for those keeping count, an extensive aquatic centre reno would make for two multi-million sports-associated city projects in a row, the � rst being the addition of a second sheet of ice and other improvements to the main arena building.

Granted, a rejuvenated aquatic centre would build on the provision of low-cost recreation – not every-one can afford to ski or skate.

But wait. There are those in the cultural and arts community rightful-ly wondering when it might be their turn. The city, for instance, desper-ately requires a museum building.

No one wants to throw out the baby with the bath water (or pool water, in this case). City council would be wise to draw up two aquatic centre to-do lists. One necessary for health and safety and the other of things that would be nice to have but aren’t necessary in order to have a proper debate about what to do next.

Sniffer dogs may soon be replaced by cockroaches as � rst responders search-

ing for survivors in the rubble of earthquakes, tsunamis and tornadoes. The State Univer-sity of Raleigh, North Caro-lina is testing Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches for searching crevices too con-� ned for dogs.

North Carolina State’s Electrical and Computer En-gineering Department is sad-dling adult “Hissers” with electrical devices that look like backpacks. Each back-pack includes a thin, rigid, printed circuit board with a micro controller, a wireless signal receiver, miniature plugs for connecting stimu-lation electrodes and a tiny lithium-ion polymer battery.

“What we do is similar to riding a horse,” lead ex-perimenter Alper Bozkurt says. “The cockroach walks naturally, and we simulate barriers by sending pulses to its antenna. They use their antenna as touch sen-sors, so stimulation on one side makes them think they are about to bump into a bar-rier, and directs these insects towards the opposite direc-tion.” The greater the electri-

cal charge, the more sharply the roaches changed direc-tion. Pulses have to be strong enough to steer the insect without tasering their tissues until they become insensitive and no longer respond to gee or haw. As the insect beetles along a path, a tiny light on its rear end winks like the light under an aircraft’s wing.

Bozkurt’s next step is to miniaturize the backpack even further and gain more precise control of movement. The goal is to out� t the in-sects to transmit audio or low grade video from their under-ground searches.

I would wager one thing: If a disaster survivor – especial-

ly a survivor unable to move – suddenly � nds himself face to face with a Hisser, ampli-� ed audio won’t be necessary for his scream to be clearly heard above ground.

The researchers see re-mote-control cockroaches as an alternative to small-scale robots. Designing robots at that scale is very challenging and cockroaches are experts at navigating hostile environ-ments, according to Bozkurt.

The Hisser’s natural habi-tat is rotten logs; they eat decomposing vegetation and smaller insects; thus they would be able to feed them-selves while spelunking in pitch black tangles of lumber and other wooden debris.

Their nickname Hisser derives from the snake-like hissing sound adults make by expelling air through breath-ing openings in their thorax and abdomen. Males, primar-ily, hiss when disturbed, as a female luring mechanism, or to warn off other males en-croaching on their harem or territory.

Hisser cockroaches are sold in pet stores to feed igua-nas and tarantulas. Wingless, they can’t � y. They stay calm, are easy to handle, and don’t bite or injure people in any

way. They prefer humid high-er temperatures which makes them perfect for searching through the destruction left by tropical disasters.

They have been featured in movies such as Bug, Damnation Alley, and Star-ship Troopers, according to Wikipedia, where their hiss-ing sound makes them seem menacing.

If North Carolina’s min-iaturizing of the backpacks works out and experiments prove successful, the adop-tion of Hissers as a regular component of search and rescue could open a lucrative form of small animal hus-bandry. An empty � sh tank smeared around the top with a four inch vaseline barrier, a nursery of cardboard egg cartons, a dish of ground dog food and another of water, and half a dozen Hissers in-cluding one female, and you could be in business.

Manufacturing the teeny saddles could keep child la-bourers busy during lulls in electronics sales.

But already People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) are complaining shocking these cockroaches’ antennae to steer them is cru-el and unacceptable.

Canada’s credibility as a money manager took a beating recently when federal finance minister

Jim Flaherty cried poor and fore-cast four years of bigger-than-ex-pected deficits, with no balanced budget until the 2016-17 fiscal year.

It took another pounding three days later when the Prime Minis-ter announced he intends to bal-ance the budget before the next election.

If the election goes ahead as planned in May 2015, Stephen Harper is basically saying he in-tends to balance the books by the end of the 2014-15 fiscal year. This is two years sooner than his finance minister expects and the same year Flaherty is forecasting a deficit of $8.6 billion.

“These things aren’t written in stone,” Flaherty explained to Bloomberg News. “The numbers will change.” Certainly Flaherty’s balanced-budget target isn’t set in stone: it’s been moved from next year to 2015 and now to 2017.

And if the date’s not set in stone, Flaherty’s actual deficit

forecast is set in quicksand: from a modest shortfall of $300 mil-lion in 2015, predicted in the June budget right after last year’s elec-tion, to the gaping $8.6 billion hole revealed in mid-November.

The only number that is set in stone is $124.5 billion – the amount Flaherty has added to the federal debt in the last four years. And if the minister and the finance department are to be be-lieved, that number will balloon to $177.4 billion by 2017.

The Prime Minister inexpli-cably blamed a shortfall in taxa-tion. He told reporters “revenue is obviously somewhat down in re-cent months because of the recent slowing of the global economy.”

And the PM’s analysis has echoed around the globe: “sink-ing federal revenues,” “global economic weakness that has cut into tax revenues,” “lower tax rev-enues for Ottawa,” “falling rev-enues slowing deficit reduction” – you get the picture. Those darned inadequate tax revenues.

When tax revenues plunge un-expectedly – as they did in 2008 and 2009 – fiscal trouble follows:

government needs to make pay-roll, mail out Old Age Security cheques, keep the navy afloat and cover the interest payments on our massive debt.

Federal revenue fell $6.4 bil-lion in 2008 and $14.5 billion in 2009. With not enough surplus to cushion the fall and rising spend-ing, Ottawa’s deficit in just those two years ballooned to $61.3 bil-lion.

But here’s the problem with

Mr. Harper’s story: revenues jumped $18.5 billion in 2010 and $8.1 billion last year, hitting a re-cord of $245.2 billion.

And in recent months? Rev-enues have continued to rise, up $3.4 billion in just the five months between April and August of 2012. Income taxes? Up. Busi-ness taxes? Up. GST? Gas taxes? Employment Insurance taxes? Excise taxes? Up, up, up and up.

So if revenues are going up and not going down, why is the deficit going up and not going down?

The answer, of course, is that spending is skyrocketing. The same week that Jim Flaherty was raising his deficit forecast, Conservative MPs were fanning out across Canada, handing out cheques with that borrowed mon-ey: money to pay for new snow-mobile trail grooming equipment, new municipal tennis courts and curling rinks, money for corpo-rate welfare for a gluten-free bak-ery and money to support Cana-da’s pet-food industry.

In fact, if Jim Flaherty’s new-est fiscal forecast turns out to be correct, federal revenues will

shatter last year’s record and set a new one of $254.4 billion this year.

If Ottawa had simply managed to freeze spending where it was before the financial meltdown in 2008, instead of embarking on a massive spending spree, we would be sitting on a $25 billion surplus this year, not bracing for a $27.2 billion deficit.

No cuts, no layoffs, no aus-terity measures: just a request to forego annual increases in wages, benefits and pension entitlements, a pause in the growth of the pork-barreling and the corporate hand-outs, until Canadians and the Canadian economy could get on their feet again.

It’s time for the Prime Minister and his finance minister to stop searching for lost revenue and do some soul-searching instead.

Gregory Thomas is a direc-tor with the Canadian Taxpayers Federation which describes itself as “a federally incorporated, not-for-profit citizen’s group ded-icated to lower taxes, less waste and accountable government.” He lives in Ontario.

Dear Sir:Unless you’ve had it happen to you,

you haven’t experienced the agony of suddenly having to give up your dog. It’s happening much more than people realize. In fact, it’s fast becoming a phenomena.

Suddenly, you have to move — and just as suddenly there’s a problem with four legs and a wagging tail. It’s your dog. Many landlords today, renting and otherwise, do not want your beloved buddy. They don’t want noise, they don’t want someone’s head ripped off, or they don’t want ‘yellow sprinkles’ on their lawn.

And then you find out if someone wants your dog, they would like it ‘ap-praised’ by a Vet. The dog must have a clean bill of health for anything from ra-bies to distemper, clean teeth, and be un-able to have puppies. The check-ups can cost up to $800.

All you want is a good home for your dog, people who will love and care for it as you do. How do you find them, or vice versa? I found the best way is an ad in The Terrace Standard. I ran an ad and I’m still getting calls, mainly from lonely people who want a small companion they can fit into their purse.

Sometimes, fate can intervene like an act of God, even before you’ve watered the garden with tears.

I’ll ever be grateful to a friend who thought she could find a home for our dog. She knew our pet could even sing like a wolf, gradually climbing to the top of an operatic scale.

Before that, I had even considered en-tering our pal in a comedy show.

She took the dog with her, and chanced to meet a wonderful couple with a farm. They didn’t have a dog, but they had a cat, lots of acreage, and some horses.

Truly, a human’s best friend

Dear Sir:It is hard to get excited about Enbridge’s contro-

versial $6 billion dollar pipeline proposal in North-ern British Columbia. Are a few short term jobs in the construction phase really worth the huge envi-ronmental impact for a life time?

On the other hand, the large multinational en-ergy companies and state-owned petroleum compa-nies such as Chinas three oil enterprises (CNOOC), (CNPC), Petro-Chine, Norways Stanoil, Koreas KOGAS, Japans JACOS, and others that have in-vested heavily into Canada’s oil and gas industry, need this pipeline.

Oddly, Alberta lobbied relentlessly to abandon Canadian Petro-Can’s Canadian oil investments, to do a complete turnaround, and sell their oil fields and tar sands to other countries and American oil companies. Clearly, there are too many foreign in-vestors involved in Western Canada’s natural gas and heavy crude oil extractions. And, more foreign nations want in, because it has the potential to cre-ate many jobs back home by securing raw product for their huge refineries.

To be blunt, countries become deeply in debt, such as Canada and Untied States, when they sell complete control of their oil and gas reserves to large companies or to, incredibly enough, other countries. The small oil and natural gas royalties are nothing compared to the huge amount of money to be made in selling and processing fossil fuels.

Norway, for example, recently became the world’s richest country, and the country Russia, owns the largest oil company in the world, by sim-ply keeping ownership of their undeveloped oil that everyone wants.

Ottawa is finally stepping in to stop the free for all, and probably the priciest law in Canada’s politi-cal history was the abolition of the Foreign Invest-ment Review Agency 25 years ago.

It’s hard to say goodbyeto a beloved animal

When our dog moved in, the cat moved downstairs, choosing to sleep in a drawer.

You never know when a prayer is going to be answered, even if your cousin is dying at the same time as the dog drama is taking place.

I phoned the new owners to see how our little ‘pal’ was do-ing. Surprise! Even though she had made a run for home, the

new owner had caught up to her (like chasing a tornado) — be-fore she was devoured by a pack of wolves.

It turned out that the people are totally wonderful. This left a

few bereft people still answering the ad.

My Grandmother used to say, “God works in wondrous ways.”

Now I can cry in peace and say goodbye to the last of my six beloved pals.

Most of my beloved pals are buried in gardens, all except the last one.

Pipeline holds no appealto voters within B.C.

Apparently, British Columbia’s biggest reward from Enbridge’s pipeline might come from media mogul Dave Black’s multi-billion dollar Northern Gateway refinery proposal on the West Coast just north of Kitimat.

Black has no oil experience, no personal money, and no investors.

However, he nevertheless, still wants to build a very expensive plant worth at least $13 billion.

It would compete in a highly competitive oil

refinery industry, far away from any oil industrial hub.

Black’s refinery will be competing against the richest countries and companies in the world is un-believable to put it politely.

As for Enbridge’s proposal obviously this pipe-line is far more important to Alberta, foreign na-tions, oil companies, than to the vast majority of British Columbia voters.

Dear Sir:Upon waking to the news one recent Tuesday

morning I heard a story being reported that really makes me question the level of intelligence we have walking among us.

The person being quoted was amongst a group of protestors in Hazelton that were upset with the conduct of the rCMP with one of their friends when she was out in the community while publicly

intoxicated.Her complaint was the “unacceptable and unac-

countable” behaviour of the rCMP officer.I would like to offer this incensed person some

good sound accountable and acceptable advice they can pass on to the rest of their friends.

NORTHWEST COMMUNITY College president Denise Henning speaking at a Nov. 20 an-nouncement that the province is providing money to buy equipment for trades training. Provin-cial advanced education minister John Yap is on the far right of the photo.

NORTHWEST COMMUNITY College is getting $3 million to help revive its various trades train-ing programs.

The money was announced Nov. 20 at the college and is part of a province-wide $17 million trades training equipment pur-chase announcement made by the province earlier this year.

A good portion of the $3 mil-lion will be spent on equipment to revive the college’s heavy duty mechanics program which was suspended this fall when student enrolment dropped because of the program’s outdated equip-ment.

“We’re talking about some re-ally big ticket items,” said provin-cial advanced education minister John Yap about what equipment will be purchased, including a bulldozer, grader and diesel en-gine trainer for the heavy duty mechanics program.

Yap also said the college will take a lead role in trades training for the mining industry.

“(It will) serve as a hub for

other mining schools in B.C.,” he said.

The college already has a pro-gram in Smithers where students are trained to work on jobs con-nected to minerals exploration.

“This is such a blessing for NWCC,” added college president Denise Henning, who thanked college staff who worked to se-cure the money.

She also honoured recently deceased trades dean Margo Van der Touw for her work in developing the college’s trades program.

Assurances were given at the Nov. 20 announcement that the heavy duty mechanics program will be offered once again next spring.

This spring the college re-ceived a one-time $839,000 grant from the province for trades training. It will be using that money on a program intended to introduce trades to high school students.

In late spring, the college also received $573,380 from the fed-

eral government to buy a series of heavy duty equipment opera-tor simulators and a 32-foot trail-er to take them around the region to offer training where and when needed.

And this fall, the college be-gan lobbying for $45 million for a new trades building.

The emphasis on trades training at the college comes at a time when governments and in-dustries are predicting the need for thousands of skilled employ-ees to work on planned mines, lique� ed natural gas plants, pipelines, electrical transmission lines and other projects in the re-gion.

Estimates place the number of needed skilled employees at more than 10,000.

The trades emphasis also comes at a time when the college reduced its program offerings in other areas and laid off employ-ees to deal with an operating de� cit that was approaching $2 million at the end of the college’s 2011-2012 � scal year.

College getting $3Mto bolster trades

STUDENTS, TEACHERS and employees at Cale-donia Secondary School are going to have a little more room to manoeuvre thanks to a new storage container set to house gym equipment at the school.

The Coast Mountains School District voted to buy a storage container after hearing that the need for one was not included when Grade 10 students were added to the Grade 11 and 12 school this fall.

Extra gym equipment was sent over from Thorn-hill Junior Secondary School when the district closed it this spring, but there was no provision made to store it, said school district facilities direc-tor John Garossino.

The container is 10’x20’ and will be purchased secondhand at a cost of $6,040 plus taxes. It is por-

table and can be removed if it is no longer needed. A new one would cost approximately 50 per cent more, according to the school board.

The school bought a similar container, used to store small engines and equipment for the Grade 10 technology programs, this summer.

Right now, gym equipment is spread out in dif-ferent locations throughout the school, said Caledo-nia athletics director Keith Axelson.

“We’ve got it stored in various places. Most of our big items are taking up space in the equip-ment room and in the hallways down by the change rooms,” he said. The upcoming purchase has good timing, coinciding with the opening of Cal’s new climbing gym, which happened Nov. 23.

Black continues refinery pursuitBy Cameron Orr

Kitimat Clean President David Black says the response to his Kitimat-based refinery proposal in Japan and China has been posi-tive, while his critics in the oil sands have been growing more silent.

Black, also the chair-man of Black Press, the newspaper chain which owns The Ter-race Standard and oth-er northwestern B.C. newspapers, spent his Halloween, and the days after, travelling to tokyo then to Beijing to pitch his refinery plan to about a dozen com-panies.

each company he spoke with has asked for more information, he said, while at least one is planning a trip to Canada in December to speak to him further.

“it was all pretty positive. everybody was interested, every-body wanted more in-formation and not one of them said ‘well, no, we’re not interested.’,” said Black.

in addition he said each company also in-quired about their abil-ity to potentially invest in the proposed refin-ery. Black said there is the opportunity for minority stakes but he would want to keep the company controlled in Canada.

Black said he’s baf-fled by early critics to the plan who had sug-gested asian markets did not want to import refined fuels.

“i never under-stood that. that’s what [John] Horgan and oth-ers said. i never under-stood where they got that information from,” he said. “there’s a big market in refined fuel. in fact it was the single biggest export from the United States last year. they sold $88 billion in refined fuel.”

While Black has plans to visit other countries, including Korea, he said Japan and China both have strong reasons for get-ting behind a Kitimat refinery.

in China the reason is fairly straight-forward; they need more oil each year, said Black, and their option is to build their own refineries or get it from Canada. Get-ting it from us would be cheaper, Black argues, and better for the envi-ronment. China’s main source of power source for refineries would be burning coal.

“So if they let us build a refinery instead, they don’t have the same pollution issue.”

the situation in Ja-pan is a bit more unique. Black said that they’re actually at over capacity for refinery production, but the changing supply of oil means they have serious investments to make in the future.

“the world is mov-ing to heavier oil. the supplies of light oil have been going down about three per cent a year so more and more refineries are having to put in coking equip-ment so they can handle heavier oil,” he said. “in Japan’s case, they’re going to have to put a lot of money into their refineries… why not come over here, buy into a new Kitimat re-finery, and bring the refined product back to Japan and land it there cheaper than they could produce it?”

He also said Japan’s tight energy infrastruc-ture could be loosened by shutting down some of their existing refiner-ies, shifting their supply from a Kitimat refinery.

“Sure enough there was a lot of interest [for that],” he said.

interest continued to grow, not just from

asia. He said he had a recent meeting from a north american com-pany interested in the refinery to supply die-sel.

meanwhile he said the plan’s critics have for the most part been coming around.

He noted criticism which said that the oil could just be refined off the Gulf of mexico in Houston, texas, but Black countered that a cost analysis showed that incorporating all the extra transport costs meant the product would cost an extra $20 per barrel.

“they’re in the wrong ocean,” he said.

Black plans to stick with Kitimat Clean as chairman for as long as it takes to get the job done properly and to ensure it’s environ-mentally sensitive, but doesn’t expect he’d be in charge long after the project comes to reality.

“i wouldn’t think my time as chairman would be very long,” he said, pointing out that if it takes eight years he’ll be 74 when it’s done.

But he does feel the time crunch to see the

project done.“i would rather there

wasn’t too big a gap in time between when the refinery’s finished and the pipeline’s finished,” he said. “the quicker i

can get the refinery on stream the less pressure there will be to start shipping bitumen.”

He does have ambi-tions to speak in other northwestern commu-

nies as he has done re-cently in Prince Rupert at a town hall-style meeting.

Cameron Orr is the editor of The Northern Sentinel in Kitimat, B.C.

DaviD BlaCK’S four key points for why a Cana-dian facility could refine fuel cheaply:1) tHe feed stock of oil to supply the refinery can be provided to a Kitimat refinery more cheaply than it would be for other countries requiring to import it.2) it takes a lot of natural gas to run a refinery — it costs more than the labour, he said — and north america has a natural gas supply which is four to five times cheaper than in asia.3) tHe economies of scale work for a Kitimat re-finery as it would be larger than anything that cur-rently exists in China.4) tHe cost to deliver refined fuel to Japan or Chi-na is far lower than shipping the crude product to a country.

Museum seeks artifactsA SMALL museum at Cedarvale east of Ter-race says CN won’t pro-vide it with aboriginal artifacts found while adding sections of sid-ing.

Mary Dalen of the Meanskinisht Village Historical Association which runs the museum at Cedarvale says she understands material uncovered during track construction includes arrowheads, flint and cooking bowls.

Cedarvale is located alongside of Hwy16 on the south side of the Skeena River, approxi-mately 75km from Ter-race, just across the riv-er from the siding work on the north side of the river.

Dalen said she and a son were even denied an opportunity to examine what had been found when they went to the construction site.

“When we went there, they wouldn’t let us down to where the work was going on,” said Dalen.

She said subsequent conversations with CN officials about the arti-facts have proved fruit-less.

But CN deliver to the historical association what Dalen calls “boxes of twisted wires and metal” taken from the construction location.

The four cardboard boxes also contain one insulator with Grand Trunk Pacific stamped on it, and other un-marked insulators.

Grand Trunk Pacific, which finished the rail line to Prince Rupert in

1914, is the predecessor company to CN.

Dalen says any item with Grand Trunk Pacif-ic does have historical relevance but doesn’t make up for not receiv-ing any aboriginal arti-facts.

“They’ve promised us a showcase for this material but we haven’t seen that either,” Dalen adds. She’s now wor-ried about rumours the artifacts may instead be headed for the Ksan Historical Village and Museum in Hazelton or to the Museum of Northern BC in Prince Rupert.

Dalen’s connec-tion to the artifacts CN found during track con-struction goes deeper than simply want-ing them placed in the Meanskinisht museum.

Dalen’s Gitxsan fore bearers, living at a place called Gitlusec, were among to the first to greet Robert Tomlin-son, an Irish doctor and missionary, when he ar-rived in 1888 to estab-lish a Christian village there.

Tomlinson called it

Meanskinisht (trans-lated as “under the pitch pines”) and buildings were erected on both sides of the Skeena.

First Tomlinson and then his son, Robert Tomlinson Jr., took up land grants on both sides of the Skeena River. The land was first leased and then some parcels were sold to aboriginal people, in-cluding Dalen’s family members, she says.

Since CN’s project is going through some of the land first taken up by the Tomlinsons and then leased and sold to Gitxsan people living in the area, Dalen says there’s a strong connec-tion to the artifacts the company found.

“These are artifacts which are part of our history,” said Dahlen.

She said buying leased land from the Tomlinsons was one way of establishing ab-original title at a time of settlement when aborig-inal title wasn’t being respected elsewhere.

Still, Dalen notes, it amounted to “having to pay for the land we [al-ready] lived on.”

CN’s siding project is part of a multi-mil-lion construction proj-ect aimed at improv-ing its ability to move goods and freight to and from the expanding port at Prince Rupert and at other facilities near that coastal city.

The artifacts are be-ing evaluated by ar-chaeologists.

The community of Meanskinisht, which at one time consisted

of homes, churches, a school and a sawmill, no longer exists as an entity. The name was replaced by Cedarvale, chosen when a post of-fice was placed beside

the rail tracks on the north side of the river.

Today Cedarvale is accepted to be the small settlement on the south side of the Skeena alongside Highway 16.

Mary Dalen

CN says it has artifactsagreement in placeWHILE CN may not be willing to provide ab-original artifacts found during construction work this year to a local museum that’s asked for them, it says it does have an agreement to safely house them.

That agreement, says CN official War-ren Chandler, is with a Gitxsan chief from the area called Arthur Mat-thews.

When CN began planning to extend its sidings in the Cedarvale area, it contacted Gitx-san authorities and es-tablished that Matthews was the right chief based on traditional clan terri-tory, said Chandler.

“It was well-defined that this was the clan territory for Arthur Matthews,” he said.

“The agreement calls for the artifacts to be housed in a facil-ity that’s owned and managed by the Gitx-san chiefs,” Chandler added.

Archaeologists were hired to be at the con-struction site and have possession of artifacts which include arrow-heads and cutting tools.

Still to be deter-mined is when the ar-tifacts are to be turned over to the Gitxsan.

Mary Dalen, who lives at Cedarvale and has developed a small

museum under the aus-pices of the Meanskin-isht Village Historical Association, questions CN’s agreement with Matthews.

The area where the artifacts were found is not part of his tradition-al territory, she says.

“The land belongs to my grandmother’s people. There’s a direct link,” said Dalen.

Chandler says he’s not aware of any mech-anism to deal with con-flicting claims to arti-facts and that as far as CN is concerned, it is dealing with the right person in Matthews.

“We’ll be honouring our agreement,” he said.

TERRACEYouth Soccer Association

The Seabridge Gold team attended 13 events in 37 days this fall to talk about the KSM Project in local communities across the northwest.

First stop was Smithers on September 11, to pro-vide Mayor and Council with a KSM Project update and opportunity for questions. That same night, Seabridge hosted an Open House at the Northwest Community College for the public to come and learn about KSM and – if it’s approved – what it will mean for Smithers and its sur-rounding communities.

A few days later (following a two-day technical work-ing group meeting in Smith-ers with Provincial, Federal, First Nations and Nisga’a representatives), it was like déjà vu as the team rolled into Terrace to meet with Terrace’s Mayor and Coun-cil, followed by an evening Open House at the Waap Galts’ap Community House at Northwest Community College’s Terrace campus.

“One of the things we like about meetings like these is they give us an oppor-tunity to hear directly from communities about what residents think about the KSM Project,” says Eliza-beth Miller, Seabridge’s Manager, Environmental Af-fairs, who works in the KSM Project offi ce in Smith-ers. “The most frequent comments we hear at every event relate to jobs and training, and how people can prepare for employment opportunities if mining projects like KSM are approved.”

Miller continues, “There are more than 120 dif-ferent occupations to choose from in mining which means jobs to suit many, at every skill level. If KSM gets approved, we’ll be able to start hiring people.

But that’s still at least a couple of years down the road, so we’ve created information about jobs in mining to help people understand what’s involved in the work, and what skills training they’ll need to do in order to be prepared when the opportunities come up.”

On October 14, Miller and her colleagues headed north for two days of community information ses-sions in Telegraph Creek, Dease Lake and Iskut.

Then, on October 17 back in Smithers, Brent Murphy, Seabridge’s VP, Environ-mental Affairs was part of a panel discussion on mining development at the Regional District of Bulkley-Nechako Business Forum. The next day, Murphy headed to Stew-art to meet with the Mayor and Chief Financial Offi cer, while Miller presented at the Annual Gitxsan Summit in Hazelton and then hopped in the car to drive to Stewart to meet up with her colleagues for an evening Open House at the Rec Centre.

“It was a tiring few weeks and a lot of driving, but was very worthwhile,” says Miller. “Many people across northwestern BC have some kind of connec-tion to mining – because they work or have worked on projects, or because their friends and family are involved with the industry in some way. On the road, we get to share our stories about working in the in-dustry, as well as information about KSM, and we get to hear other people’s stories too.”

ORGANIZERS ARE hard at work on the Kermode Festival of Lights, which is set to go Saturday, Dec. 1 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at George Little Park.

Terrace and District Chamber of Commerce is planning a Kermode mini parade through the park, free family activities, music, hayrides and a Parade of Lights down Lakelse Ave.

“We had thought we had another group that was going to organize the parade, but at the last minute we discovered that they had opted not do the parade due to the complications of the logistics,” wrote Carol Fielding in an email calling for parade entries.

Last year’s parade was cancelled because of poor participation numbers, and this year the call for entries is late, so Fielding is asking interested participants to contact her as soon as possible.

“In order to make the closures viable we need at least 15-plus entries,” she said. Nechako North-coast’s traf� c control crew that work for their Bill-a-Bong division will be providing support with street closures and traf� c control.

And a � oat isn’t neccessary. It could be the com-pany van or a walking group entry. “Anything goes as long as it is about the holiday season,” she said.

“Make sure you plan for the cold and wet...al-though I have sent a request to Mother Nature to help us out this year,” Fielding continued.

Parade entry deadline nears

Mitchell Stevens

Stevens returns as Nisga’a presidentSWEARING IN cer-emonies have been held for members of the Nisga’a Lisims Govern-ment who were elected in the Nisga’a Nation’s general elections held Nov. 7.

Mitchell Stevens de-feated two challengers in winning the election to be president of the Nisga’a Lisims Govern-ment for the next four years.

Stevens received 741 votes compared to Eva Clayton who received 557 and Charles Mor-ven, who received 414 votes.

General voting day was Nov. 7 but results weren’t released until Nov. 10 when elec-tions of� cials collected tallies from the four Nisga’a villages in the Nass Valley and from urban voting stations in Terrace, Prince Rupert, Vancouver and Prince George.

Stevens, from Laxgalts’ap in the Nass Valley, was � rst elected president in a 2010 by-election made neces-sary by the death of Nelson Leeson.

He had been regard-ed as an establishment candidate with Clayton and Morven promis-ing more involvement by Nisga’a citizens and more openness.

The Nov. 7 elections also saw national gov-ernment positions � lled for chairman of the

council of elders and secretary-treasurer.

Village chief coun-cillor and village coun-cil positions were also � lled as were positions for the three urban Nisga’a locals of Ter-race, Prince Rupert and

Vancouver.The surprise result

of the elections was the defeat of Edmond Wright in a bid to con-tinue being secretary-treasurer of the Nisga’a Lisims Government.

Corinne McKay won

that job with 886 votes compared to 618 for Wright and 186 for Curt Johnson.

Wright was among a core of Nisga’a leaders involved in the nego-tiations leading to the Nisga’a Final Agree-

ment of 2000 and held elected of� ce since then as the Lisims govern-ment established itself.

Kevin McKay re-tained his position as chairman of the Lisims government by accla-mation.

Nisga’a national and local elections are held every four years. The Nisga’a national assem-bly, which holds ses-sions in New Aiyansh, is made up of members from Nass Valley vil-lages and urban locals.

THE SEASON’S � rst major winter storm Nov. 22 brought snow, high winds, cancelled airline � ights and made driv-ing tricky.

Air Canada Jazz cancelled inbound � ights from Vancou-ver that day to Ter-race as well as to Prince Rupert and to Smithers.

Lights � ickered in the area the afternoon of Nov. 22 but no major power outages were reported. But high winds did bring down one tree at the Ksan Society’s Hall St. shelter. It dam-aged a vehicle.

Total precipita-tion on Nov. 22 was 12mm with snow falling overnight into Nov. 23, amounting to 32.4mm for that day.

There’s no mistaking the importance of Kitimat, B.C., to the Gateway project. It’s where the pipeline ends, and it’s where marine operations begin.

I’d like to set the record straight on why we chose Kitimat, at the head of the Douglas Channel, as the site for Gateway’s marine terminal. The answer took thousands of hours of research, planning, engineering, environmental science, oceanography consultation, weather monitoring, and simulation. But the simple reason is . . . safety, all the way.

The Douglas Channel is one of the widest and deepest inland waterways on North America’s west coast. Government research had already determined Kitimat to be among the safest ports in B.C., and about 1,500 tankers carrying petrochemicals have docked safely at Kitimat over the past quarter-century.

Strategically speaking, Kitimat provides the lowest environmental risk for all aspects of Gateway operations. It offers a safer endpoint for the pipeline route, from a geotechnical perspective. The marine terminal at Kitimat also provides safe approaches for tanker traffi c — with a suitable turning basin in Kitimat Arm, and natural deep-water berths that are sheltered

from open-water wave conditions.

At its very narrowest, the Douglas Channel is 1.4 kilometres wide — three times wider than Transport Canada’s recommended width for two-way tanker traffi c. Water depths in the marine channels are up to several hundred metres.

As an added measure, full simulations of vessel traffi c in the Douglas Channel were carried out at a world-leading facility in Denmark. It tested the largest proposed vessels in environmental conditions that tankers would experience in the marine channels. The result was a thumbs-up on the shipping route, endorsed by both government departments and the British Columbia Coast Pilots.

Why Kitimat? Why the Douglas Channel? It’s the safe option for Gateway.

City plans two majorroad projects next yearTWO MAJOR road rebuilds are slated for 2013 with a cumulative price tag of $1.5 mil-lion.

The 4700 block of McConnell Ave. from Eby St. to Sparks St. in the Horseshoe makes up $760,000 of that amount while the rest has been tentatively budgeted for Park Ave. west of Kenney St.

In a budget meeting last week, city council met with staff to talk plans for next year’s road-construction sea-son, and some ques-tioned why both proj-ects above were given priority.

“Why the high pri-ority for Park west of Kenney?” asked coun-cillor Bruce Bidgood of the stretch of road which runs past the

Emco plumbing whole-sale business and to-ward the back end of Canadian Tire.

“It seems like there would be so much more bene� t ... doing a street like that,” Bidgood said of expanding the Mc-Connell road project.

In response, public works director Herb Dusdal said frost affects both the Park and 4700 block of McConnell

road sections.He added that the

4700 block of McCon-nell was chosen for the rebuild because it has bigger frost issues than the 4600 block of Mc-Connell, for instance.

Traf� c is also taken into consideration, said Dusdal, adding the more traf� c there is, the higher the priority when it comes to reconstruc-tion.

Also, the city has been eyeing a rebuild on Park Ave. for sometime.

“Park was on our list two years ago and we moved it back,” said councillor Brian Downie.

The difference be-tween a road rebuild and paving is work on the infrastructure that lies beneath it, a new road base and drainage as well as pavement on top. Road paving, for which the draft budget has $1.3 million slated for 2013, can be patch-paving work or involve the removal of the road surface either by crush-ing it into new road base

or stripping of the top layer of asphalt prior to repaving.

Major road projects city staff have slated for years to come include Graham from Kalum to Eby, Loen from Mun-roe to Eby, Munroe - Hwy16 to Walsh and Munroe from Straume to McConnell.

Without an indus-trial tax base to increase municipal tax revenues, the city has mainly resi-dential and business tax revenue to rely upon, a factor that can limit its ability to undertake capital projects such as road rebuilding.

“Why the high priority for Park west of Kenney?” asked city councillor Bruce Bidgood.

Candidatepasses away

IN LIEU of � owers do what Mike would do: a random act of kindness.

Those words speak volumes about the life of Mike Ross, 60, a retired armed forces veteran, who ran unsuccessfully for city council last year and died Nov. 7 after a long battle with cancer.

“That’s Mike,” said Freda, his wife of 14 years. “In fact, since he passed away, people have � ooded me with stories of him doing things that I never knew about.”

She knew that, at his job at Greyhound, when the bus would come in really late that he would drive everybody home afterward when the weather was bad.

Being civic minded, Freda said Mike al-ways wanted to run for city council.

He was diagnosed with lung cancer in Janu-ary – he smoked for 42 years – and took seven months of chemotherapy, and responded very well, said Freda.

He returned to work but the cancer returned.

SERVICES WERE held Nov. 22 for Murdoch (Doch) Robertson who passed away Nov. 18 at the age of 86.

A lawyer, Robertson practised law in Terrace for nearly 50 years.

Robertson obtained his law degree while attending university in Van-couver and came up to northwestern B.C. to live in Prince Rupert where he articled with the firm of Brown and Harvey.

He met his future wife Marion who was also attending school in Vancouver and they were married on Nov. 3, 1951 in Nanaimo.

They had just celebrated their 61st wedding anniversary this past Nov. 3.

After living and working in Prince Rupert, Robertson’s law firm advised him to move to Smithers and that’s what he and Marion did.

A law school classmate, Lawrence Perry, had served the town as its sole lawyer for some years.

Doch and Marion enjoyed Smith-ers very much, liked the people and found lots of things to do.

Early in 1957, they decided to leave Smithers and move to Terrace because a collapse in the wood indus-try there affected Robertson’s ability to make a living.

They thought Terrace would prove to have more activity and after com-ing to take a look, decided to move here.

The town was booming and rental accommodation was at a premium in the late 1950s.

They managed to find an apart-ment on Davis Avenue, near MacK-ay’s Funeral Home, which was in a

great deal less then ideal condition.A move to an Agar Ave. house fol-

lowed.Robertson opened his law firm

Murdoch Robertson, Barrister, in the Dave’s Plumbing and Heating build-ing on Lakelse Avenue and Marion helped in the office.

Both quickly became involved in the community through service clubs and the Anglican church.

Robertson was Chancellor of the Anglican Diocese in the north for 23 years and commenting on the Rotar-ian Club he says, “I put a lot into Ro-tary and Rotary put a lot into me.”

Doch was instrumental in start-ing up what he fondly recalls as TPA, short for Trans Provincial Airlines.

His dreams for this airline never reached fruition.

“What you want to do and what you do are so greatly separated,” he said of the airline experience.

Marion and Doch both loved art and become known for their collec-tion.

Robertson credited his mother for his outlook on life.

After practising law in for almost 50 years, Doch retired.

He and Marion decided to stay in Terrace and both have been living at Terraceview Lodge in recent years.

Robertson subsequently wrote and then published his legal experience in the north in “A Touch of Murder ... Now and Then.”

The book was published in 1999.The Robertsons have two children,

Fiona and Jeffrey, and three grand-children.

MARGARET SPEIRS PHOTO

billy bigelow, (graeme linton), centre, is torn between whether to go along with a scheme from new friend Jigger, (greg Van Horne), or go with Mrs. Mullin (erika loggin) in Carousel.

Romance and redemption take the stage in CarouselCAL DRAMA students take a shot at romance and redemption in Car-ousel.

Billy, a carnival barker, and Julie fall in love at first sight at the amusement park and go for a walk together.

Despite warnings from others about Bil-ly, and at risk of losing her job at the cotton mill, Julie won’t leave him.

Billy’s boss Mrs. Mullin fires him and after he packs his things, he learns that Julie lives at a boarding house and works at the cotton mill.

The couple tells each other their feelings and are married soon after-ward.

The story takes a several twists and turns from there.

Graeme Linton is Billy and Brielle Dorais Fleming plays Julie.

Erika Loggin is Mrs. Mullin, Billy’s boss.

Greg Van Horne is “unsavoury” sailor Jig-ger, who turns Billy’s and Julie’s lives upside down.

Katie Hollett is Car-rie, Julie’s friend and Rheann Armes is Net-

tie, Julie’s cousin.The musical, written

by Rodgers and Ham-

merstein, known for the Sound of Music and a whole host of other fa-

mous works, said that Carousel was their fa-vourite work.

For more details on Carousel, see City Scene on page 21.

Shoebox drive ‘amazing’OPERATION CHRISTMAS Child Shoebox Cam-paign in the northwest took off and filled more box-es than expected.

“It’s been an amazing response and not just here,” said Louise Freeman, who coordinates the campaign here.

“Prince Rupert phoned me and needed another 200 [boxes]. Kitimat had 16 boxes left. I’ve just or-dered another 300 coming in now,” she said early last week.

She was in the Dollar Store one day when she overheard a little girl telling her dad they had to get a shoebox. Her dad had no idea what she was talking about.

“This child was maybe eight or nine so not a little, little child but wow she was so excited,” said Freeman.

“A child wanting to give to another child is ex-citing to see.”

Freeman had 900 shoeboxes, not counting all the other plastic shoebox-sized containers that people might use if they can’t get an official shoe-box.

“If people bring them back, then I would think we’ll hit a record this year,” she said.

Freeman was able to get an extension from Greyhound, which ships the boxes for free, up to the end of this month, an extra seven days or so.

Freeman thanked Greyhound and the commu-nity for its overwhelming response this year.

“It’s really exciting,” she said. “People seem to have decided this is a real posi-

tive thing.”Operation Christmas Child started in 1990 and

is part of Samaritan’s Purse, a Christian organi-zation run by Franklin Graham, son of evangelist Billy Graham.

Shoeboxes are collected year round but the of-ficial collection week is usually in November and then they’re shipped out around the world.

They are filled with hygiene items, school sup-plies, toys and candy for children of both genders and a variety of ages.

This year, it’s expected that the 100 millionth shoebox will be collected.

Shoeboxes collected from Canada this year will be distributed to Costa Rica, El Salvador, Equato-rial Guinea, Guatemala, Guinea, Guinea Bissau, Haiti, Ivory Coast, Nicaragua, Paraguay, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Uruguay and Venezuela.

LOCALS ARE featured in a new book about the northwest that was years in the making.

Kamala Elizabeth Nayar, professor of Asian Studies at Kwantlen Polytechnic University, recently had her first book published: The Pun-jabis in British Columbia, Location, Labour, First Nations and Multiculturalism.

It took four years to research and two years to complete a draft of the whole book, said Nayar by email.

“I hope that readers find a greater apprecia-tion for the rich multicultural history of First Nations and immigrants in B.C.’s north coast, which tends to be overshadowed by Canadian metropolises like Vancouver. And, a better un-derstanding of the process of adaptation and the impact of multiculturalism, both of which are influenced by geographic location,” she said.

She interviewed 150 people, including Ter-race’s own Mo Takhar and even visited the Ter-race Lumber Company here in 2006.

She noticed the shrinking of the Punjabi com-munity of the Skeena Region as the forest indus-try took a downturn, she said. Her interest in the topic began after moving from Montreal to the Lower Mainland for a post-doctoral fellowship, which involved a research project on the Vancou-ver Sikh community, where she noticed differ-ences between Sikhs raised there and those from small B.C. towns.

When she began teaching in Surrey, which has a large Punjabi population, she could eas-ily spot Punjabi students from small B.C. towns. “Subsequently, I wanted to investigate their greater sense of belonging to both the region and the country, as well as their greater awareness of the First Nations.”

After visiting the northwest in 2003, she wanted to do a research project in Prince Rupert and Terrace.

“It was disheartening to see people struggling because of the economic downturn, but even so I appreciated the friendly atmosphere of the re-gion and the resilience of the people.”

EV BISHOP

A friend wrote me a note the other day, part of which read, “ . . . It only reminded me that I used to write and

that I don’t anymore and that is only one thing in a long list that I have lost along the way.”

Her words came back to me this Saturday as I considered the stark land-scape of the depleted Skeena beneath the old bridge. Rocks, bare. Trees—no, trunks. Severed. Separated. Set apart. Stripped of bark and branch and leaf. Rootless. They looked like ivory bones on the earth’s silty guts.

She needs to get back to the cre-ative things she let go of, I thought. She needs to.

Fall is an introspective season. Per-haps it’s because the weather forces a physical slow down and a turn to in-ward contemplation. Or perhaps it’s more primal: as nature goes dormant or dies, thoughts tune to the occurrence of the same in other parts of our lives. Or maybe, for me, it’s more personal. My parents both passed away in Octo-ber, and fall seems indelibly linked to my own mortality. Whatever the reason, this time of year I � nd myself thinking about how I live and what I put my en-ergy into.

I had a hard week. Month. Year. If it wasn’t for my writing, I don’t know what I would’ve done. Sounds melo-dramatic—and maybe it is, but I don’t care. I look at our world, at the things that go on in it, and I don’t know how—without music, without art, without po-etry and stories—people stay sane.

Most people loved some creative

pursuit, I hate to say it, when they were young. What is it about adult life that makes so many of us forsake the things we enjoy most? Sometimes it’s because dreams and desires honestly change, but a lot of time (maybe even most of the time) we give up those passions, those unique activities that make us us, out of fear, out of misplaced feelings of obligation, out of pressure from people who don’t get it (and don’t get us even if they love us).

I’ve long battled feeling sel� sh. I spend hours by myself—and I need more than I get. I don’t keep a tidy house. I tune my family out sometimes. (I also love them sincerely and passion-ately, and try really hard to know them, respect them and give them space to be who they need to be, etc.—though

that’s a whole other column). I can be distracted—and unapologetically disin-terested in some things, like small talk.

Yet my writing has made me a better wife, mom, person. I think. I hope. It is good for people to pursue their pas-sions—and as a parent it’s critical. We have to model what we value: thought-fulness, a pursuit of things with intrin-sic value—things with cultural, emo-tional, mental, or spiritual signi� cance. Society will do all it can to sway our children (and us!) to a life of material-ism, vapid pleasures, and looks-based self-worth. We need to counteract that in� uence the best we can, and I think the best way to do that is to show the rightness of thinking, learning, and ex-pressing.

Letting ourselves sing, play an in-strument, carve, write, garden, � sh, quilt, sew, work in a shop—the list could go on and on—is crucial in so many ways. It helps us deal with stress, with sadness, with anger. It reminds us that joy can co-exist with sadness, beauty can survive hard times, and one can � nd peace even amidst inner storms.

The Skeena is lonely in November, but there’s beauty in her sharp grey-on-black-on-white lines and some-thing inspiring in her resolute jour-ney onward. If you have regrets about things undone or neglected, make this the year you take up that dropped course, cause, art, or hobby. Live as you feel you’re supposed to. That’s the thing about things that get lost along the way. They can be stumbled upon later. Found. Reclaimed.

Nightmares on track for success

contributed PHoto

Here are members of the Northcoast Nightmares after a bootcamp and bout in Prince George last month.

The NORThcOaST Nightmares roller derby team is coasting towards the future and looking to add some financial padding to their upcoming season with a gender-bend-ing fundraiser this weekend at the Thornhill community centre.

as a sport, roller derby has been gaining serious traction and respect over the last few years. Games, called “bouts”, feature all-fe-male five-on-five play with players skating in circles as a pack and one player, the jam-mer, earning points by lapping the group. It’s a fast-paced contact sport with players encouraged to have major personality.

The Nightmares’ team is still in its forma-tive years, and the women are always look-ing for new players, volunteers, and cash to help cover costs .

This is just one of the reasons they are hosting their fundraiser on Dec. 1 starting at 6 p.m., that will feature dinner, dancing, and an all-male beauty pageant and auction where the contestants will auction off tasks like “shovel driveway” or “walk dog.”

Proceeds from the auction portion will go to the Salvation army, while the rest of the event’s proceeds will go towards financing the team.

“Until we have more teams closer to home, the costs for the games will remain high,” said Tarea “Dream Warrior” Roberge, whose team travels for away games regular-ly to Prince George to face-off and train with the team there, the Rated PG Girls.

“We have to bring trained refs in from out of town, which means covering their travel costs as well as lodging,” she said of home games, noting they also give money to the teams who travel here to help them out. “The distance becomes costly.”

This is one reason the team is pushing to get Prince Rupert, Kitimat, and Smithers registered, bench-marked leagues running.

“With our four communities, we could hold our own tournaments and travel far less,” she said, noting that the lack of ven-

ue space in those communities is delaying things, even though there is a lot of interest from women there.

“The dream is not too far off,” she said. “Once [the women find venues], there will be no stopping us from bringing plenty of live roller derby action to the area.”

Until then, the team aims to have two games at home next year, hopefully with one of those games being an open invitation to all of the leagues in B.c.

“This is so that Terrace (and area) get a

taste of what the hype is about and see some amazing more experienced players in ac-tion,” she said.

aside from the cost, in order to host more home games the team needs volunteers for all of the supporting positions.

“Penalty trackers, announcers, security, jam timers, score trackers, a head non-skat-ing official,” she said. “We’d also really love to have trained local refs, which for the right person with the right dedication we will help get the training by covering travel and train-

ing costs.” and even though the team is asking for

support from the community, they’ve always made a point to give back.

“The Northcoast Nightmares have raised $5,000 for the canucks autism Network, $1,200 for United Way in the fire truck pull, and with our kids we also participated in the Kidney Walk this summer,” she said. “We are proud of the contributions we have made in our community and plan to always be in-volved and give back.”

Zebras roam in Terracea PacK of nine young referees from across northern B.c. attended the annual North West Development camp weekend here in Terrace on the weekend of Nov. 17, taking part in officiating seminars, reffing games during the Bantam tour-nament, and playing some of their own.

Officials from Vanderhoof, Fraser Lake, Smithers, Kitimat and hazelton were represent-ed, as well as four from Terrace. The northwest district runs from Vanderhoof to Kitimat/Prince Rupert.

“It’s a large district and these events take a lot of coordinating from many people,” said Dan Nickel, Bc hockey’s northwest district referee committee member. But the effort pays off, as the annual event, which has been held in other northwest towns previously, makes a difference.

“I notice a difference game to game [in the young refs],” he said. “even in terms of position-ing.”

The camp helps to get all of the officials on the same level, and develop their abilities and confidence level, so that they can ref any number of games, by pairing younger refs with more ex-perienced refs for about a handful of games over the weekend.

“It’s about learning in a fun environment,” he said, giving the example of a game of hockey jeopardy the group played. “If the young kids are not enjoying it, then learning decreases and mis-takes will be made.”

and the vibe in their conference room at the Sportsplex on the Saturday night was certainly fun, with the guys eating pizza and poking fun at each other — and their superiors, who included Kevin Kennedy and Terrace’s minor hockey head referee, cam MacBean.

Peter Nicholson, from Terrace, said the camp has helped him to “become a better ref in gen-eral” and taught him about the three-man system of reffing, something he hadn’t experienced yet.

about a third of the guys said they’d like to pursue officiating as a steady career in the future, with dreams of reffing in the NhL.

The camp also helped to give them the tools to deal with abuse from parents and coaches, a rea-son many officials across canada leave the game.

“This has to stop,” said Nickel. “Part of this weekend is giving these kids the tools to deal with this.”

Some of those tools include staying calm, and leaving heated situations, the group said.

Is carbon fibre or graphite a better ma-terial for building fly rods than glass fibre or fibreglass? The jury is out and may never come in with the verdict

given that the difference in weight between the best of both materials is negligible, and so much depends on the personal prefer-ence and casting style of the user.

Their manufacturers made much of the light weight of graphite rods in their adver-tising campaigns, and many inexperienced and inept fly casters quickly used that fea-ture to judge rod quality. When they first hit the North American market, graphite rods were stiff in comparison to those of fibre glass and bamboo. The purveyors of graph-ite rods pointed to this feature and claimed it enabled the user to cast tighter loops, which, because of its aerodynamic efficien-cy, is the back bone of a well executed cast.

Any skilled caster who has experience casting rods of graphite, glass, and bam-boo, knows that weight is of almost no importance to good casting. Balance is the key. A fly rod is a lever. The caster’s arm is the fulcrum. If the reel and the portion of the single handed rod behind the hand of an angler is approximately equal to the weight of the rest of the rod, the rod is balanced and, as such will can be cast with less ef-fort, greater efficiency, and will cause less wear and tear on the shoulder, arm, and back. I frequently encounter anglers with

single handed rods that have lightweight reels attached to them. They are the unwitting vic-tims of marketing hype and would be much bet-ter off putting away their perforated space age reel in favour of a much heavier, and invariably much cheaper, winch.

A simple, age old test to discover the correct reel for any fly rod con-sists of fastening the reel on the rod then placing the outfit on your in-dex finger under the top cork on the handle. If it sits there parallel to the ground the outfit is bal-anced. If the balance point is a few centimetres toward the han-dle or the tip, that’s fine too, but if you have to move a greater distance either way, pur-chasing that reel will put an unnecessary obstacle between you and casting comfort.

As for the other extravagant claim, the ability to produce tight casting loops is not a feature of the material from which a rod is made, but a function of an angler’s cast-ing skill. I have watched my good friend, Bill Burkland cast perfect loops as tight as

a drum with a soft ac-tion bamboo trout rod and seen him perform the same feat with nine weight, nine foot cane rods that were built with steelhead in mind. Years ago, when he was still fishing them, I watched Bill do the same thing with graphite rods.

As far as the issue of weight goes, we mustn’t lose sight of the fact that the difference in weight between high-end bamboo, fibre glass and graphite, is only a few ounces, and that the heaviest material, bamboo, has the most mass, and thanks to this

feature, takes less energy to flex. On the occasions when I have let anglers with no experience with the material cast one of my bamboo rods, they invariably employ the rhythms they use to power their graph-ite poles and overpower the rod. It takes a while to get the feel of cane and come to the realization that bamboo will take up more of the task and that less power needs to be applied as a result. It can be persuasively argued that, cast properly, a bamboo rod

will take far less toll on a caster’s arm than the equivalent rod made of plastic.

When it comes to double-handed rods, weight becomes more of an issue. Some ten years back, my friend, rod builder Bob Clay, and I fished the Skeena’s Panorama Run together. I was using a 15-foot graph-ite two hander, while Bob was giving a 16-foot bamboo rod of Sharpe’s manufac-ture that he’d recently acquired on eBay. Because of the considerable torque spey casting cane rods puts on their joints, their makers favoured splices to metal ferrules. The Sharpe’s rod was of these.

Bob lashed the sections together with tape, then began casting. The line went out well enough, but after a few casts it ap-peared that Bob was straining. I took the rod when he offered and quickly realized where that strain was coming from. The pole weighed as much as a fence post. The anglers who cast rods of this heft had a sys-tem of casting that involved balance points on the caster’s body and employed as little movement of the arms and body as possi-ble. The technique is well described in John Lynde’s superb primer Thirty-Four Ways to Cast a Fly. Bob and I weren’t familiar with this approach then. I know it now, but even so, using a rod as heavy as that with the best technique would be more work than plea-sure.

The TeRRACe Bluebacks attended the Medical Northern Sprint Meet in Prince George two weekends ago. Twelve Terrace athletes joined with Prince Rupert, Kitimat, and Smithers as the Points North Swim team for the meet.

Notable performances from Blueback ath-letes include Angelina Filtziakis, with 100 per cent Best Times, 2nd place in 50 and 100 Freestyle, 2nd place in 100 Individual Med-ley and in the 200 Freestyle, which was a medal event she won the Bronze, 1st Place as part of 200 Medley Relay and 200 Freestyle Relay Teams.

Jade heathfield, with 100 per cent Best Times, 1st place in the 25 Butterfly, 1st Place as part of 200 Medley Relay and 200 Free-style Relay Teams. Brayden Phillips, with Sil-ver Medal in 200 Individual Medley, Bronze Medal in 200 Freestyle, 1st place in 50 and 100 Breast Stroke, 1st Place as part of 200 Medley Relay and 200 Freestyle Relay Teams.

Next up, the Bluebacks will travel to the Kitimat December Invitational Dec. 14-15.

TeRRACe TOTeM Ford Midget Reps travelled to Prince George over the Nov. 16-18 weekend and left taking first place in their Tier 2 annual tournament.

Terrace dominated almost all of their games, first playing Prince Rupert Friday morning and beating them 3-0, with goals from Rhett Munson, Curtis hull and Ryan Rose-boom and the shut-out for Brandon Thandi.

Later that day, Terrace spanked Williams Lake 7-1 with goals from Nikita Desjar-lais, Colin Bell, Colten Braid, Devon Poulin, Tanner Braid, Austin Turner and Ryan Rose-boom. In goal was Dion John-ston.

Saturday’s first game against longtime rival Quesnel, was another satisfying defeat, 7-1, with goals from Rhett Munson, Chris Allison, Curtis hull and four goals from Aus-tin Turner with Brandon Than-di between the pipes.

Saturday’s second game was against the hometown team Prince George, in which Terrace was feeling the effects of their early morning game and lost 4-2. Goals from Ryan Roseboom and Chris Allison.

But Terrace was still in the top spot and advanced to the finals, only to play the home town team once again on Sunday. But this time Terrace was well-rested and came out strong. They still didn’t score any goals until the second pe-riod when they took a lead of

2-0 going into the third period. Goals from Austin Turner and Chris Allison.

Quesnel managed to get a power play goal on Brandon Thandi early in the third but Terrace held on and battled hard through numerous penal-ties to hold on to their one goal

lead to take the gold. This was the third tourna-

ment so far this season with the best outcome.

It was a huge win for the team and a great confidence booster for the boys, who work hard and have been practising twice a week.

They also do dry land train-ing with Amber Pipe once a week.

After some league play against Kitimat last weekend, the team is travelling to Wil-liams Lake Nov. 29-Dec. 2 for another tournament, looking for another great outcome.
