The South Cariboo Chamber of Commerce (SCCC) has a new board of directors for 2013/14, including a new executive.

While the board members were appointed at the April 25 annual general meeting, some executive positions shifted when the membership was left without a candidate for president when Tom Bachynski resigned after his two-year term was over.

The board has chosen Jennifer Appleby (Western Financial Group) as its new president, and Leon Chrétien (Sunrise Ford) as vice-president.

SCCC executive director Angela Cole says both have served for one year as directors, but bring experience and leader-ship qualities that complement the board and each other.

“I am looking forward to work-ing with this bright group and I’m thrilled to see the advances we have made over the past year.”

Appleby says she is looking forward to the challenge and to working with a great group bunch of business people.

“Our challenge is showing the value of the chamber to its current members and encourag-ing new members. We want to expand the chamber’s reach.”

She adds the board will brain-storm ideas for this year’s goals at a retreat and some meetings coming up.

By Jack WittyIn 1997, 191 pneumonia vests were knit-

ted in the South Cariboo and sent off to children in tropical parts of the world to help newborns and infants with their heal-ing.

This year, 1,310 vests were dedicated at the 100 Mile United Church and sent off to the Canadian Food for Children group for delivery to countries in the Third World.

These vests were knitted by folks from Forest Grove, Williams Lake, Lac la Hache, Lone Butte, 100 Mile House, Bridge Lake and all points in between.

Thanks goes to the co-ordinating efforts by St. Peter’s Anglican Church and St. Andrew’s United Church in Williams Lake, and St. Timothy’s Anglican Church and the 100 Mile United Church in 100 Mile House.

None of us will ever know the names or circumstances of the children who are helped. All we will ever know is we did our bit to spread love rather than hate and offer a helping hand rather than fatal indiffer-ence.

Pneumonia vests shipped to Third World

This year’s shipment of 1,310 pneumonia vests from 100 Mile United Church will go to children in the Third World. The vests were knitted by women throughout the South Cariboo.

British Columbia’s four major party lead-ers made their pitch for voter support in a 90-minute TV debate on April 29, with eco-nomic and resource issues dominating.

B.C. Liberal Leader Christy Clark pressed her attack on Adrian Dix, the front-running leader of the NDP, accusing him of advo-cating big spending on government programs and restrictive environ-mental views that deter industrial development.

“The NDP plan would rob Peter to pay Paul, hoping Paul will vote NDP,” Clark said. “My plan is to put both Peter and Paul to work.”

Dix referred to B.C.’s ninth-place position in provincial job growth so far this year. “Neither Peter nor Paul are work-ing,” he said.

Both Dix and Clark pressed BC

Conservative Leader John Cummins on his rosy revenue forecasts, despite a promise to phase out the carbon tax on fossil fuels that would cost the provin-cial treasury more than $1 billion a year.

Cummins respond-ed to Clark’s jab about him being forced to fire four of his candidates for various indiscre-tions. One of them was accused of impaired driving, Cummins said, adding that one B.C. Liberal candidate is seeking re-election after being convicted of the same offence.

Green Party Leader Jane Sterk was on the defensive about her long list of promises, includ-ing a guaranteed annual income to replace exist-ing social programs, and extensive social programs for rural areas. Asked about her proposal to immedi-ately raise the carbon tax by 66 per cent, Sterk described it as a “gradu-

al increase.”As they have in the

first two weeks of the campaign for the May 14 B.C. election, Clark and Dix clashed over oil and gas develop-ment. Dix denied there was a plan to impose a moratorium on hydrau-

lic fracturing, saying Cariboo-Chilcotin NDP candidate Charlie Wyse was wrong in referring to one last week.

Clark stuck to her five conditions for approving new heavy oil pipelines, refusing to endorse or oppose

either proposal to bring more Alberta oil to the West Coast. She pressed Dix on his sud-den reversal to oppose an expansion of the 60-year-old pipeline to Burnaby, which has seen increased demand for crude exports.

Hero is a word we hear often in sports, but hero-ism is not always about achievements on the � eld of play. “42” tells the story of two men - the great Jackie Robin-son and legendary Brooklyn Dodgers GM Branch Rickey - whose brave stand

against prejudice forever changed the world by changing the game of baseball. In 1946, Branch Rickey (Harrison Ford) put himself at the forefront of history when he signed Jackie Robinson (Chadwick Boseman) to the team, breaking MLB’s infamous color line.

Relief from car-bon tax on farms and promotion of British Columbia-grown agri-cultural products are key promises in the campaign for the May 14 provincial election.

The BC Liberal Party and the BC NDP have argued for a decade about the best way to promote local food consumption. The NDP platform promises to reinstate the “Buy B.C.” program that identifies products grown any-where in the province.

The B.C. Liberal gov-ernment ended that program, and in 2012, it committed $2 million to regional “Buy Local” promotions that they say are more adapt-able to local needs. The party’s current platform promises to double that funding to “promote 50- and 100-mile diets.”

Neither party is spe-cific about assistance for tree fruit growers. The NDP pledges to “help orchardists with replanting and other costs,” while the B.C. Liberals offer to “begin work on a permanent and sustainable tree fruit replant program, to be implemented fol-lowing the current three-year, $2 million program.”

In its pre-election budget, the B.C. Liberal government has offered $20 million in carbon tax relief for greenhouse and flower grow-

ers, in addition to an exemption for coloured gasoline and diesel used on farms.

The Green Party of BC proposes major reforms, including phasing out synthetic chemical pesticides, banning genetically modified crops, such as canola, and removing taxes on value-added B.C. products, such as juices and wines.

Platform highlights:• The B.C. Liberals

promise a new meat inspection system by 2014, including a new “Certified B.C. Beef ” brand. The party also wants to create a “Centre of Excellence for Agriculture” at the University of the Fraser Valley.

• The BC NDP promises $8 million per year starting in 2014 for agriculture pro-grams. Plans include pilot programs to use B.C. produce in hospi-tals and long-term care facilities.

• The BC Conserv-ative platform promises only to “introduce policies that support farmers, ranch-ers and others.” The party emphasizes its pledge to phase out the carbon tax on all fossil fuels, citing its role in poor finan-cial performance by B.C. agriculture relative to the rest of the country.

• The Green Party would prohibit further release of top-rated land from the Agricultural Land Reserve, and “provide small grants

to support munici-palities and school boards that wish to maintain and expand community gardens and urban agriculture.”

Lac la Hache Elementary School principal Steve Carpenter, says it is pretty calm around the school at the moment.

Students and staff participated in the Lights Out Canada and Earth Day on April 22. They will be cleaning up the roads around the school by picking up garbage, weeding the school garden in preparation for plant-ing after the May long weekend, and keeping lights and electronics at a low level.

On April 16, they were invited by Mile 108 Elementary School to attend an African drumming and dance group named Kunda, which was amazing.

On April 18, stu-dents and staff enjoyed a homemade ham soup, made with the leftover bones and meat from the very successful ham dinner auction held earlier this month. It was cooked by some of the students and the in-house nutrition co-ordinator Sylvia Zailo.

Spring has sprungThe frozen lake will

soon be replaced by waves, as it has already begun at the south end of the lake.

Already many birds have arrived and many have made stops on

their travels. The eagles are sitting at the edge of the ice ready to snatch up any fish swimming by.

The otters are play-ing, swans, geese and pelicans have also been spotted at various loca-tions around the lake.

There are signs of spring cleaning, as yards are being tidied up.

There is an open burning ban in effect,

so the burning of large brush piles is not allowed. So, yard waste will need to be hauled to the dump.

your probability of becoming a victim of a gang-related murder increases substantially.

2. GanG numbers have increased: In 1980, law enforcement listed just a handful of gangs and organized crime groups. Today,

that number is closer to 188.

3. GanGs and orGanized crime Groups are evolvinG: In the late 1990s – 2000s multi-ethnic gangs were common. Today, new business alliances are forming

and groups that were in conflict are now working together.

WEEK OF MAY 5 TO MAY 11, 2013

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20Aries, you may feel like you need to move faster to get ahead, but the opposite is true this week. Slow down and focus on the details and you will bene� t.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21Taurus, though the � rst few days of the week may seem disastrous, hang in there and you will � nd things will turn around quite quickly.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Gemini, sometimes you have to make some noise to be heard, which may seem out of character for you. If the cause is that important, you will do what is necessary.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22Cancer, you can’t get enough of a certain thing, but you may need to pace yourself. Otherwise your interest may start to wane. A surprise situation arises on Thursday.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23Leo, there are things you need to say to a particular person in your life. But you do not know how to express your opinions in a way that’s easy to understand. Speak from the heart.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22You may be feeling a bit under the weather this week, Virgo. It’s likely due to you push-ing your schedule to the limits. Schedule some recovery time for yourself.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23Libra, you need to rely on someone this week for a big project, but you don’t know who to choose. Make a list of your best prospects, and then you can narrow it down from there.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22You can use a break from the daily grind, Scorpio. It might be time to plan a get-away. You may want to make this a solo trip so you can fully recharge.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21The truth can sometimes hurt a bit, Sag-ittarius. But a dose of honesty this week provides the reality check you have been needing. Make some changes.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20Capricorn, an event this week gets you � red up and excited. It could be the news you have been waiting to hear from work or from a signi� cant other.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Aquarius, knowing when to keep quiet can be dif� cult, especially when you suspect something is off-kilter. This week you will be put to the test.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20Pisces, the week may begin somewhat aimlessly, but things will all come together by the middle of the week.

Williams Lake and District Credit Union held its annual general meeting on April 29, and the results of its 2013 elec-tion of directors were announced.

Three positions were available in 2013, each for a three-year term. At the close of nomina-tions, one nomination

had been received for each position.

At the AGM, incum-bents John Dressler (Williams Lake), Michelle Swalwell (100 Mile House) and Donna Mikkelson (Bella Coola Valley) were declared to be elected by accla-mation for three-year terms.

The Williams Lake

and District Credit Union board consists of nine members who collectively represent three branch-es and their s u r r o u n d i n g communit ies . Directors are normally elect-ed for three-year terms on a rotating basis.

Any member in good stand-ing over the age of 19 may be nominated for available positions. Elections are conducted by mail-in ballot prior to each AGM.

The board meets on a monthly basis to direct the affairs of the credit union.

The Williams Lake and District Credit

Union marked 60 years of serving members in 2012. Branches in Williams Lake, 100 Mile

House and Bella Coola pro-vide financial services for a diverse popula-tion spread over a vast area.

W i l l i a m s Lake and District Credit Union boasts

assets of approximate-ly $194 million and employs 70 dedicated individuals. Committed to making a differ-ence, the Credit Union supports its local com-munities through funding, staff expertise, and the energy and commitment of staff volunteers.

Partners for Literacy (CCPL) is current-ly holding its Third Annual Bright Red Bookshelf book drive in 100 Mile House.

Our elementary school children and teachers are busy col-lecting new and gently used books. The book drive runs from May 1 to 31.

Each local school has a red book drive box that students will be decorating with their names, pictures, stories and just having fun with it while col-lecting books. Pictures of these boxes will be on the CCPL website at the end of the book drive.

Folks can make a dif-ference in a child’s life one book at a time. For many children, owning a book of their own is like a special treasure.

Please donate new and gently used books. One of our goals is to keep the Bright Red Bookshelves (BRB) stocked with books, so all children in our com-munity will always have access to a book of their own.

Our community part-ner Cedar Crest Society for Community Living cleans, labels and dis-tributes books to the BRB locations.

Books can be dropped off at the arena at the South Cariboo Rec. Centre, Cariboo Family Enrichment Centre, 100 Mile House & District Women’s Centre and at the GROW.

During the past three years, CCPL has given out more than 12,000 books. We need your

help and support.If you would like

more information or you would like to donate or volunteer, please call the writer at 250-791-5720 or 250-945-4199.

At a news conference on April 24, the planning committee for the St. Joseph’s Mission Residential School Commemoration Project announced a series of events and initiatives in the coming weeks to commemorate and create awareness and recognition of the residential school experience in the Cariboo.

The project aims to encourage, support and engage in a shared First Nations and non-First Nations dialogue on how to achieve reconciliation in the Cariboo region, and to support efforts by all those affected by the legacy of this residential school as they continue on their personal healing journey.

To achieve these objectives, the proj-ect aims to:

• Be inclusive: Events are being planned through a multi-party plan-ning committee whose membership includes: First Nations and Tribal coun-cils; local government leaders; former residential school students; School District 27; First Nations schools, civic organizations/Rotary Clubs, and the RCMP. (They are also reaching out to the faith-based community.

• Be collaborative: Working with all the above partners and others as they are identified to ensure the project events respond to the interests of all participants. The conference events will be done in collaboration with the national Truth and Reconciliation Commission. We worked with the cur-rent landowner and the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate to place a monument at the site of the former residential school.

• Be supportive: Paying special attention to how we engage, com-municate and work with the former students involved in the SJM Reunion Facebook group. Working with Health Canada (B.C. Region), the Interior Health Authority and the Indian Residential School Survivors Society of BC to ensure appropriate mental health counselling and other supports are available.

• Be Respectful: Structuring events to: commemorate the residential school experience and those who did not survive it; assist those affected by the legacy to engage in their personal healing journey; and to engage First Nations and non-First Nations in a dialogue about reconciliation in the Cariboo region.

“The Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada com-mends everyone involved in the St. Joseph’s Mission Residential School Commemoration Project. You’ve put together a program that’s compre-hensive, meaningful and accessible. I look forward to being a part of it,” said Justice Murray Sinclair, Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada chair.

“First Nations people who attended this school, like myself, have worked hard since the day it closed in 1981 to seek justice for the wrongs we suf-fered and to create a new legacy for our children and grandchildren. Doing this project is a good way for us to figure out how we can do this together,” said Chief Fred Robbins of the Esketemc First Nation.

“I’d like to acknowledge Chief Robbins for his vision and leadership to create this one-of-a-kind project to create an opportunity for healing, reconciliation, and moving forward. This project is a great example of how First Nations and non-First Nations peoples can work together towards healing, understanding, and com-mon goals,” said Williams Lake Mayor Kerry Cook.

“The Cariboo Regional District is proud to have played a role in bringing all communities throughout our region together for this momentous event. By

gaining a better understand-ing of each other’s cultures, heritage and the challenges we face, through this reconcil-iation process, we will be able to move forward together in collaboration to create a bet-ter Cariboo-Chilcotin for all of its residents,” said Cariboo Regional District chair Al Richmond.

The public is welcome at all of the events below:

• May 13-19: Private Truth and Reconciliation Commission individ-ual statement gathering – Thompson Rivers University (TRU), Williams Lake campus.

• May 16: Monument unveiling cer-emony – former St. Joseph’s Mission Site (11 a.m.-noon).

An early start to warm spring weather means many people are getting out and enjoy-ing the great outdoors.

The warm weather also brings out ticks, which bite and feed on the blood of humans and animals and can sometimes transmit disease.

Ticks are most often found in tall grass and wooded areas. Fortunately, there are precautions people can take to prevent illnesses that may be transmitted from tick bites.

“Covering up before you head outdoors and checking for ticks when returning from a walk, hike, or bike ride are simple things that go a long way to prevent tick bites,” says Dr. Karin Goodison, public health physician with Interior Health.

“Most tick bites do not cause illness. However, any bite from a tick or other insect should be cleaned with soap and water because infection can occur whenever there is a

break in the skin.” The most com-

mon tick species in the Interior Health region is the wood tick (Dermacentor anderso-ni) species, which does not carry the Lyme d i s e a s e b a c t e r i a . Ho w e v e r, the wood tick can carry other dis-eases, such as Rocky M o u n t a i n spotted fever, although it is rare.

Lyme disease-car-rying ticks (Ixodes pacificus) are more common in the coast-al areas of British Columbia.

Ticks also have toxins that can cause tempo-rary muscle weakness and paralysis if they are attached for several days, especially in chil-dren or seniors, but the symptoms fade once the tick is removed from the skin. The signs of many tick-borne infections can be quite similar and include fever, headache, muscle pain and rash.

“Lyme disease-carrying ticks are less common in the Interior of B.C. than on the Coast. However, resi-dents do travel

around the province, so it’s important they are aware of the signs of Lyme disease,” says Goodison.

“Approximately 70-80 per cent of people newly infected with Lyme dis-ease will develop a skin rash that looks like a “bull’s-eye” and often expands from the site of the tick bite.

“The rash may be accompanied by fever,

headache, and aches or pains in muscles and joints. People who experience this rash should see a doctor as soon as possible.”

One of the most important ways

to reduce the risk of tick illnesses is to do a skin c h e c k on your-self, your children,

and your pets after being

outdoors. Other pre-cautions include:

• Walking on cleared trails when in tall grass or wooded areas.

• Wearing a hat, long sleeves, pants, and light-coloured clothing.

• Tucking pant legs into socks or boots.

• Applying insect repellent containing DEET on uncovered skin.

• Carefully check-ing clothing and scalp (covered or not) when

leaving an area where ticks may live.

To reduce ticks from entering your home and yard, try these steps:

• Keep your lawn short and remove any fallen leaves and weeds.

• Keep a buffer area such as wood-chip or gravel border between your lawn and wooded areas or stone walls. Any play equipment or play zones should be kept away from wooded areas.

• Trim tree branches to allow more sunlight in your yard.

• Keep wood piles

and bird feeders away from the house.

• Widen and maintain trails on your property.

If you find a tick on yourself, a family mem-ber, or pet, wear gloves and gently remove it. Be careful not to crush the tick as this could cause it to inject its stomach contents into your skin. If you find a tick, check very carefully for others. Other tips to remove ticks safely include:

• Use needle-nose tweezers to gently grasp the tick close to the skin.

• Without squeezing,

pull the tick straight out.

• After removal, clean the area with soap and water.

If you have concerns or need assistance removing a tick, contact your family doctor or visit a walk-in medical clinic.

As a volunteer at last year’s Relay for Life and cancer sur-vivor, it seemed only natural Shannon Pennicott would join this year’s committee.

“I wanted to be a big-ger part of it and bring about some changes,” says Pennicott.

Although she does not have a specific job

title on the committee, her enthusiasm and unique perspec-tive have made her an invalu-able member of the team.

This year, Pennicott says she is mainly a “gopher” and just getting her feet wet, bringing new ideas and doing various jobs as they

come up.“I really like

the enthusiasm and how the group works together,” she says, adding everyone is very accepting and respectful of each other’s

opinions and ideas.There is a real shift this

year to move away from being a closed day with

team events and going back to a community event where everyone can come to Centennial Park on June 8 to partici-pate and have fun.

All the while, they will be continuing to raise awareness of what the cancer society does. The public is invited to come down and enjoy the music and activities running all day, says Pennicott.

“You realize when you have been affected by it how much it becomes a part of your world that you weren’t involved in before.

“You realize the importance of the can-cer society and how much you need it. You know there’s a group there for you and that’s what I want to help bring to people – you’re not alone.”

NDP Leader Adrian Dix has indicated he won’t support the pro-posed expansion of the Trans Mountain oil pipeline from Alberta to Burnaby.

Announcing his environment policy in Kamloops on April 22, Dix stuck with his long-standing position that Kinder Morgan Canada must formally apply to twin its 60-year-

old pipeline before he offers an opinion on it. However, he added that he would not sup-port a “five- or six-fold” increase in oil tanker traffic from the compa-ny’s Westridge Marine Terminal shipping facil-ity.

Vancouver should not become a “major export oil port,” Dix said.

Kinder Morgan is in the preliminary stages of applying for permits to nearly triple the

capacity of its pipeline to about 850,000 barrels a day of crude oil. Last year, a company spokes-man said increased capacity would mean more than 300 tank-ers a year travelling in Burrard Inlet.

That would be a steep increase over the cur-rent traffic. Increased export demand for Alberta oil sands crude brought a high of 69 tankers to Burnaby in 2010, but just 32 tankers were loaded

in 2011.The NDP has

opposed the compet-ing Enbridge Northern Gateway pipeline proposal, which would carry Alberta oil sands crude to an export terminal at Kitimat.

The B.C. Liberals

have demanded five conditions for any expansion of heavy oil pipelines across British Columbia, including “world class” land and marine spill response capacity and a “fair share” of economic benefits.
