Playing peek-a-boo with Spring on the Coast

Despite a wintery chill in the air, this sunny photo, taken near the BC Ferry terminal at Langdale by photographer Leonard Stott, clearly shows that spring is in the air. Coast sightings of hummingbirds, the sight of spring tulips, daff odils and hyacinths now sprouting in fl owerbeds, and bursts of warm sunshine are signs that the fi nish line for winter is fast approaching. Since the Groundhog’s shadow was seen in one location but not in another, the conclusion is that we can make our own choice to have a shorter winter and earlier spring! PHOTO LEONARD STOTT

They set out to cross the Atlantic in the

Woodvale two-man row-ing competition, aware that an unforgiving ocean could sabotage their ef-forts at any time. But what Michael Majgaard and his 62-year-old stepfather Ole Elmer did not count on was the frailty of the hu-man body.

After spending a month in a sunny little seaport called La Gomera, prepar-ing and training for the crossing, Majgaard and El-mer entered their specially designed two-man Adtkin

boat, named Team Amigo, to start a trip the equivalent of 5,000 km across the At-lantic. Elmer’s other com-petition boat, � e Boogie Woogie, was also entered in the competition.

“� e weather became un-believably rough,” Majgaard told � e Local. “It was one of the toughest rows on record.”

Once rough seas hit the boat, Majgaard was devas-tated by seasickness. After � ve days of being unable to eat, drink, or even sleep, Majgaard was forced to make the critical decision.

“I was so weak from hun-

ger and dehydration and so sleep deprived, I was begin-ning to hallucinate,” he said.

“You couldn’t stand up-right on the boat; the cabin ceiling was so low – it was like being in a jail cell with a four foot ceiling. And no matter how sick you feel, you take your turn at the oars every four hours.”

At one point, weak from intense seasickness, he was forced to row as hard as he could, “We were drift-ing close to an active vol-cano – it was so close I could actually smell it. I could even hear the waves

crashing against the rocky shore. I had to put every-thing I had into keeping us o� those rocks.”

After struggling with his decision for three sleeps, Majgaard � nally had to tell Elmer that he couldn’t go on. � ey waited until the escort boat came within hailing distance and called it quits.

All in all, seven out of the seventeen boats that started the race dropped out.

� e silver lining to Ma-jgaard’s story is that he made it home in time to see his daughter born De-

cember 15. � ey named her Dora, after wife April’s grandmother – a little sis-ter for brother Morley. Al-though the newborn kept the couple up at night, Majgaard said that he never considered those nights as ‘sleep deprived’, not com-pared to what he su� ered on the crossing.

“I know I will never at-tempt another ocean cross-ing on a small boat – it was a hard lesson. At the same time, I don’t regret trying the Woodvale Atlantic crossing; I learned a lot about myself on that trip.”

Roberts Creek Sign 1002

Do you want to get no-ticed? In last week’s

edition of � e Local, I was inadvertently described as Mayor John “Ferguson”. It’s a testament to the loyal read-ers of � e Local that I’ve had so many comments, from “Why did you change your name?” to “You look a little young for Fergie (John Fer-guson, the hockey player) –and not nearly as tough!”

Turning to another ‘no-ticeable’ topic, in the � ve weeks since the District took possession of the golf course, I’ve been approached by many people with ques-tions and suggestions. � ese have ranged from “Great – it’s about time!” to “What’s going to happen to the dues I prepaid?” to “Is the course open?”

Dealing with the last ques-tion � rst – YES, the golf course is open! (8:30 to 5 pm, at present.) At only $25 for 18 holes, it’s a bargain.

Mayor’s Message

John Henderson Mayor, District of Sechelt

Golf at Sechelt continuesAlso, annual golf passes are currently for sale for $1,850 (including HST and $200 of food vouchers.)

I’m pleased to advise that the restaurant is now open (Wednesday’s to Sunday’s, Noon to 4 pm). Come in and enjoy a hamburger or hotdog!

It’s great to hear that most people that prepaid their 2012 golf dues to the former operator have re-ceived refunds from their credit card companies. However, there are still a few folks who are out of pocket. � e Golf Course Advisory Committee and Council will be addressing how to deal with this situa-tion in the next few weeks.

Also, as part of our plan to ensure the long term success of this “jewel”, the District will be issuing a Request for Proposals, seek-ing to identify an operator for the golf course facilities over the long term. While we want to issue the RFP soon, the timing depends on various legal matters, so it is di� cult to be speci� c about the timing.

I want to acknowledge

the hard work and dedica-tion of our Golf Course team – Je� James, who has stepped in to manage the transition and get the course and facilities fully opera-tional, as well as Tristan, our intrepid Greens keeper (and so much more), Leslie, our F&B Manager, and Gloria, our chef, as well as numer-ous others – including a great bunch of volunteers. In addition, many of the District’s sta� have put in extra time and worked extra hard on this. My thanks to all of you!

Letters to the Editor

While most people view seniors as fancy free, some se-niors battle with a barrage of problems. Among these

are health problems – hips, knees and backs are the most common sources of unrelenting pain – while high blood pressure, heart disease and diabetes rate up there, too. Other problems are � nancial, with many seniors living at or below the poverty line. Still others involve family and sometimes those problems can lead to severe distress and anxiety. Anxi-ety, depression and even suicidal thoughts are not the exclu-sive domain of younger people.

According to statistics, about seven per cent of people over 65 show symptoms of depression. Around two per cent experience moderate or severe depression and around � ve per cent experience mild depression. � e moderate or severe forms are much more common among elderly people living in care homes or those who have dementia. Depres-sion in people over 65 seems to be less common than it is in younger groups, but researchers aren’t sure if this is a real di� erence or an issue with the research questions used on the questionnaires.

In BC about 22 per cent of suicides are committed by people over the age of 60. About � ve times as many older men commit suicide than women, but of all the age groups, men over the age of 85 have the highest number of success-ful suicides. Yet mental illness among the elderly is seriously under-diagnosed by physicians; this sometimes happens because doctors may view symptoms as a normal part of aging. Also, elderly people have physical problems, which may be viewed as mental illness.

Depression is a very real illness and probably a� ects a larger percentage of the population than is really known, because many people su� ering from depression either won’t acknowl-edge it or are too ashamed to tell anyone. Depression has long been stigmatized; people su� ering from the illness are told to ‘buck up’ or ‘quit feeling sorry for themselves’ which is like telling someone with the � u to stop running a fever.

Symptoms of depression may take di� erent forms for men, women and teens. Men complain about fatigue, lose interest in hobbies or work, may become unusually irritable, reckless or even violent. Women su� er from pronounced feelings of guilt, feel exhausted and sleep excessively, overeat, gain weight or feel unable to make decisions. Depression in teens, how-ever, is a bit di� erent: some teens appear sad, others don’t. Irritability rather than depression is, in fact, the predominant symptom in depressed adolescents and teens. A depressed teen may be grumpy, irritable or lose their tempers easily; unexplained aches or pains may also be symptomatic. Left untreated, depression can lead to problems at home and at school and may even lead to extreme violence or suicide.

It’s only now that depression is being publicly recog-nized as an illness that people are beginning to realize there is help. � e � rst step is admitting there’s a problem – the second step is to ask for help from someone quali� ed to diagnose depression.

If you or anyone you know has been su� ering from de-pression for more than a couple of weeks, don’t wait to see if it will get better by itself. Get help now.

The many faces of depression

Letters to the EditorTell us what issues spark debate

While � e Local is to be congratulated for o� ering space to SCRD Board and Municipal representatives, who really wants to read simplistic lessons on civics or self-congratulatory ex-postulations suggesting how well the Boards and Coun-

cils are getting along with one another?

What I want to know is: What are you debating, what do you disagree on, what options in what areas of your responsibility are you considering? � at’s how you can engage us, educate us ef-fectively and, coincidentally, access community knowl-edge and reasoning power.

Want us to pick up on how local government works, on what its areas of responsibil-ity are? Do it in the context of issues. Don’t just give us nice, comfy, meaningless as-surances that you are work-ing hard to pick the best op-tion for sewage treatment in Sechelt (which serves the adjacent regions on a user-pay basis and a� ects ocean water quality for all of us). Tell us what those options are. Direct us to web pages describing them. � ere is tons of new technology out there. It actually is interest-ing. Interest us.

Surely some SCRD direc-tors have reservations about the e� cacy of expenditures on picking up recyclables in relatively sparsely zoned rural areas as compared to much more densely-popu-lated municipalities.

Surely some of our rep-resentatives have the smarts and integrity to know that the tough problem of ongo-ing water supply is critical to the constituencies they were elected to serve.

� e fact that the SCRD has no direct control in ar-eas of highways or subdivi-sion decisions surely doesn’t mean they don’t have per-spectives on those matters. Share them with us. Citi-zens can exercise in� uence, don’t you know. Give us some e-dresses or addresses or phone numbers.

I spent six years on the

SCRD Board. It was any-thing but boring. Don’t waste the opportunity to engage us. Don’t bore us. Don’t feed us this touchy-feely nonsense about team-work. I don’t care about that. I want to know that decisions on expenditure of our money run the gauntlet of real debate and I want to read about those debates. John Marian, Halfmoon Bay

Who’s on first?My letter, published in

� e Local on February 2, 2012 re: Trail Bay beach wall, was written to the mayor and council April 5, 2010 and signed by me, Ar-thur Whistler and did not represent my wife, Barbara Whistler, or the Sechelt Vil-lage Residents Association. � e letter published was one of several recommenda-tions contained in an email of January 30, 2012 that I sent to Mr. Jim La� erty on revitalization of the Village area, District of Sechelt.

Please note this correction in your next publication.Arthur Whistler, Sechelt

A vision for the Coast� e Sunshine Coast is

one of the few communities with a winter population size of about thirty thousand people that does not have a large Cultural Complex to serve that Community. A recent Cultural Complex

Task Force looked at four areas: 1. A Performance Centre, seating around 600 people. 2. A larger library. 3. A Heritage Museum 4. A Public Art Gallery & Mu-seum. � is complex would be of the highest standards and size to meet the needs of the whole Sunshine Coast centralized (like our hospi-tal) to meet the professional level of excellence needed to attract not only local cre-ative performances, learn-ing, the arts and culture but also meet the highest inter-national standards. You can now see the Cultural Com-plex talk given by Graham Argyle with photos of what would be an excellent model for the Sunshine Coast by putting in Youtube search > Sechelt Cultural Complex <. � e Youtube � lm is in three parts: 1.

When does human become inhuman?

I stood at the kitchen counter a few days ago, cut-ting onions and listening to CBC radio. � e news came on and as I listened to one of the lead stories, I realized my tears were no longer just from the onion.

Canada has opted into association with worldwide

torture as a means for politi-cal ends.

My life’s experiences have convinced me that the means are the end, that in-humane actions produce inhumane results.

I stood there, imagining my son, a granddaughter or my husband in unimagina-ble agony, daily and inde� -nitely, and felt the despair of complete helplessness to alter the situation. I felt ill.

When does human be-come inhuman? Has Can-ada taken a giant step away from her role as a generous, kind nation of peacekeep-ers, friends of world e� orts for justice and peace? If we can’t advocate for the tor-ture of our own people, how can we justify the torture of others and not feel the cur-rent of inhumanity � owing into Canadian homes, Ca-nadian lives?

Express your humanity – please let your government know that Canadians don’t want to be a party to torture.Nina Haedrich, Sechelt

(Continued from page 4)improvement of Sechelt’s Boulevard St. for the enjoy-ment of the residents and visiting tourists:

Correction of drainage problems along the Bou-levard between Inlet & Ocean Avenue: at two loca-tions by providing drainage where water accumulates, to direct surface water south of the concrete walkway to the beach. Between Trail Ave. and Ocean Avenue in front of residential homes on Boulevard St. (similar drain-age corrections proposed for locations between Inlet & Trail Ave.) Pedestrians and people on electric scooters do not like to be splashed by water from cars going through the puddles.

Properly anchoring of the steel bench seat (in front of the Driftwood Inn) to an existing concrete pad - third bench east of Trail Avenue, to prevent bench seat being thrown onto beach below. � is is the only bench seat that has not been anchored. (I informed the Administra-tor several months ago).

Replacement of Boule-vard St. asphalt road: � ere are many depressions in the existing asphalt roadway due to heavy delivery trucks that deliver supplies to businesses. Local residents and tourists who walk, use their electric wheelchairs or push walkers along this rough roadway are being splashed by cars that drive through the puddles.

I recommend that in-stead of resurfacing Boule-vard St. with asphalt, it be replaced with a Green Way Road Design. � ey are built with permeable ma-terials that provide superior watershed-driven storm water management.

Remove fenced area on the Boulevard: About two years ago, the District of Sechelt spent a lot of mon-ey for expensive nursery shrubs and deleted stairs to the beach. Last year the District contracted to have a wooden fence installed because of safety concerns. � e fenced area has now grown up with weeds and people walk around the fence to gain access to the beach. Some dogs run in-side the fenced area and their droppings are not be-ing picked up. � ere is also a drainage problem along the roadway because water cannot drain to the beach. � is area requires regular maintenance and removal of the fence. Local residents and tourists used to park their cars and enjoyed access to the beach for swimming. � ey can’t easily do this now with the installed fence, and no stairs to the beach. In 1990, the head gardener

arranged for a sprinkler sys-tem to be installed between Inlet Ave and Boulevard. (Sprinklers are not operated now.) Lawns were raked fre-quently. � is is no longer done and there are pebbles scattered on the grass areas now. If the area isn’t main-tained, people will not en-joy the use of the boulevard lawn. Please review this area and talk to the local prop-erty owners, pedestrians and those a� ected.Arthur Whistler, Sechelt

Dear Mr Jensen;We are writing to ex-

press our extreme concern regarding the possible sale of BC Timber Sales Cut-block #A87124 in the Wil-son Creek watershed. � is block may be sold for log-ging before March 31 2012, the end of the � scal year. It is located on the southern edge of the 2007 CNI clear-cut and if logging is allowed to proceed, it will be one of the largest clear-cuts in the region. We � nd that com-pletely unacceptable.

BCTS A87124 is an im-portant part of the proposed 1500ha Mount Elphinstone Park. � is area contains some of the last low eleva-tion natural forest on the

Sunshine Coast. BC Parks describes the existing small park, which is similar to these blocks, as “mixed old growth and second growth forest with very diverse and rich fungi populations as-sociated with the forest”. � ey also note that “All three of the park sites are relatively small and could be impacted by adjacent development or forest ac-tivities”. In other words the park needs to be bigger.

While block A87124 may not be age class 9, it has many old-growth-like characteris-tics regenerating after selec-tive hand logging in the late 1800s – similar to the forests in the three small Parks.

BCTS manages 6000ha of forested public lands across the face of Mount

Elphinstone and “harvests” an average of 27ha annu-ally. We have complete faith that BCTS sta� can � nd 27ha of previously logged forest in the approx-imately 4,500ha remaining if a moratorium is placed on sales in the proposed 1500ha park area.

� e Roberts Creek Com-munity Association urgent-ly requests an immediate deferral of the sale of block A87124 and a moratorium of any further logging with-in the proposed expanded Mount Elphinstone Park.

We need this forest as a living part of our neigh-bourhood now and – even more so – in our future.Steve Henry, PresidentRoberts Creek Community Association

Charlotte Gill of Powell River is the winner of the 2012 British

Columbia National Award for Ca-nadian Non-Fiction for Eating Dirt: Deep Forests, Big Timber, and Life with the Tree-Planting Tribe, announced British Columbia Achievement chair Keith Mitchell, February 13. Gill was presented Monday with the $40,000 prize by Premier Christy Clark.

In her seventeen seasons as a tree planter Charlotte worked on the Canadian Shield, in foothills of the Albertan Rockies and in many parts of British Columbia. She commuted to work in � oatplanes, o� shore tug-boats, diesel trucks, helicopters, row-boats, all-terrain vehicles, in� atable dinghies, and amphibious military vehicles. She has crossed paths with whales, eagles, dolphins, weasels, � ocks of migrating cranes, moose, newborn fawns, and grizzlies. She has

planted more than a million trees.� e jury cited ‘Eating Dirt’ as “...an

insider’s perspective on the grueling, remote and largely ignored world of that uniquely modern-day ‘tribe’, the tree planter.” Gill’s description of the forest “brings it vividly to life in all its mystic grandeur with striking details and evocative analogies, using intel-ligence, verve and humour to illumi-nate the dangers that live within, and threaten from without.”

Other � nalists were Brian Fawcett for Human Happiness, Andrew Westoll for � e Chimps of Fauna Sanctuary: A Ca-nadian Story of Resilience and Recovery and Joel Yanofsky for Bad Animals: A Father’s Accidental Education in Autism.

“It’s a privilege for British Columbia to honour Canada’s � nest writers of non-� ction,” said Premier Clark. “� e authors we celebrated today provide us with a unique perspective on the com-

Coast woman wins national award

plexities of our world and help de� ne us as Canadians. I congratulate Char-lotte Gill and the � nalists for their con-tributions to Canadian literature.”

What’s the market doing?apartments, condos and townhouses. � ere are 146 current attached list-ings and 2 sales year-to-date. With the current pace of sales, this repre-sents a 73-month supply of listings.

Let’s talk about list-ing: � ere are 367 bare land listings and 3 sales year-to-date. With the current pace of sales this represents a 122-month supply. Comparing the previous year’s bare land sales, in 2011 for the same time period we had 50 sales.

� is is typically a slower time of the year, so I would not be overly alarmed by these stats. I have been checking around at some of the other real estate o� ces this week and most are showing an increase in

buyer activity and in some cases there have been competing o� ers. Most of my fellow real-tors I checked with are working with a number of buyers and report an increase in showing ac-tivity. So I believe my next report on the mar-ket will show a signi� -cant di� erence!

Reviewing the year-to-date sales I found most of the sale prices occurred within 5 per cent of their current listing price. � e listings that were on the market the least amount of time sold within a few thousand dollars of their list price. � e home with the largest di� erence be-tween the original asking price was on the market for 17 months. � at’s why it’s important to price it right!

Horoscope for the Week: February 17, 2012

Tip of the Week:What if the Mayan proph-

esies are true? � ey speak of the activation of heightened levels of consciousness yet also of climate change and cataclysms. Are massive or-ganized networks of hidden power cabals conspiring to create a massive hoax with 2012, as some assert? Or is there actually some truth to all this 2012 ‘mumbo jum-bo’ as some dismissively call it. Either way, our world has reached something of a cri-sis point. Greed, corruption and crimes against nature and humanity have become so much the norm that many have simply tuned them out in futility, disgust and/or despair. If cataclysm does not occur, we still face many other social, economic and environmental challeng-es. Assisting us to tune in to our deeper destiny, living authentically and thereby contributing to the solutions we seek, is one of the ways Astrology can and does help.

Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)After what has quite possi-

bly been a busy few months, you may feel the need for a slower pace. � is will be-come increasingly evident this week. With the acceler-ated pace of spring not far o� it might be wise to re-charge your batteries. Save any industrious projects for later. If you can travel to a quiet place, do it now and leave the gadgets behind.Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

Sharing your dreams and ideals with others is in the spotlight. � is could mani-fest as simply the desire for quality time with friends. Yet inspirational visions and plans for future prospects are

on your mind. At deeper lev-els, this is a time of clearing the way and could well in-clude tending to un� nished business to prepare for im-portant and exciting projects to come.Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

Bringing your dreams into sharper focus is featured in your current reality. Exchang-ing ideas with someone you can trust and who supports you will probably help a lot now. You may feel somewhat confused about your place and purpose. Accessing guid-ance from both within and without is ideal. Even though the outer pace is fast these days aim to be patient, yet de-liberate and sure.

Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22)Your world is changing

steadily and so too are your feelings, intuitions, philoso-phies and/or beliefs about it all. Attempting to return to the way it was is not a good idea and will not work any-way. It is time to advance. What this more precisely means and implies depends on your situation. It could be a good idea to seek guid-ance and counsel, yet ad-vance you must!

Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23)Some rather deep shifts

and changes are rumbling in you. � ese may not be so apparent to others but you can sure feel them. You sense that you have to elimi-nate certain things in order to improve. Cleaning clos-ets, clearing debts, replacing limiting beliefs, attitudes and behaviour patterns with bet-ter ones, leaving unful� lling relationships that do more harm than good and so on are examples.

Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)� e spotlight is shifting

to your relationships now. Sharing thoughts, feelings, a� ections and quality time feels right. Giving more will likely play into the mix, yet you may also feel it is your turn to receive. � is could be the source of confusion and con� ict so aim to communi-cate clearly. Acknowledging

your worth and value is part of the plot.

Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)Clearing within in order to

manifest and achieve without is in focus. � is is what Feng Shui and Vastu is all about - organizing and arranging your environment in align-ment with natural principles. Clearing the clutter is the most basic feature and could imply literal stu� and/or lim-iting beliefs and self-concepts. Do the work and you could get a lot more than just a clean and beautiful home.Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)

A creative and imaginative cycle is on the rise. Yet you should be prepared to give more than usual to achieve your goals. In fact, it may be necessary to break through any lines of resistance. Con-sider that whatever we per-ceive and experience without is ever a re� ection of who we are and/or what is going on within. Work to receive a stream of creative ideas � ow-ing your way now.Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)

Dreaming a new dream close to home is a current theme. Any opportunity to escape into the cozy warmth of your own home stands to be extra inviting now. Yet a frisky mood is also on the rise and you yearn for some fun, excitement and adventure. A family adventure away could hit the mark. How can you escape, feel safe and close, play and take your own space all at the same time?Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)

A wave of inspiring ideas is scheduled to wash in on your shores this week. You will want to collect all the treasures that come with it for practical use. Meanwhile desires for increased levels of freedom are featured. � is may be the source of some disruption at home and/or at work. Circumstances prob-ably require that you focus and stay the course even if you want to run.Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)A review of what is truly

important and practically necessary is underway in your mind. � is process of prioritization may also be coloured by notions of what would be most ideal. Dreams of increasing your power somehow are play-ing a role, too. Getting more knowledge and/or training is a likely answer. Now is a good time to review the prospects.

Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)A busy cycle continues.

You will feel even more de-liberate and determined starting this week. Expect to take some key initiatives. De-sires to activate a more satis-fying � ow and to increase returns are motivating you. Your willingness to engage with others in cooperative exchanges is extra ideal now and this trend will continue.

Elphinstone Logging Focus 1007EMERGENCY PUBLIC MEETINGMT. ELPHINSTONE PARK EXPANSION

THREATENED BY NEW LOGGING WHERE: ROBERTS CREEK COMMUNITY HALL

WHEN: TUESDAY, FEB. 21 • 7:30PM

This Spring & Summer 2012 could see intense logging on the Mt. Elphinstone slopes not seen in years. The meeting will provide details on proposed logging by both Island Timberlands, and BC Timber Sales. We will also share some good news on the protection of a key forest area that we’ve been working on. The TrailFest-Wagon Forest (BCTS Cutblock A87124 at 29.7Ha) is the most pressing issue right now as it could be sold to a logging contractor February 29th. The Block sits within the proposed 1,500Ha Mt. Elphinstone Provincial Park expansion which is supported by community groups and many residents. They have stated that this public asset is better left intact to achieve long term gains. We will discuss options to see these areas protected. The BCTS block should not be logged for many reasons, including their own assessment for high wind-throw, high soil erosion and loss of a high-value trail network. The cutblock increases the size of the bordering CNI cutblock (note: the largest clearcut on the Sunshine Coast) from 160Ha to 189Ha! More logs to China or an addition to a new park? Our call, if we organize together.

If you value our local, intact forests, then mark Feb. 21 on your calendar. New campaign material on hand to distribute.
