GLENN SVENSSON/SPECIAL TO THE MIRROR
A pleasure boat burns briskly along the shore of McIvor Lake as spectators and other boaters look on in the background Sunday afternoon.
J.R. RARDONCAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
A family out for the maiden voy-age of its new boat avoided injury but lost the craft Sunday afternoon when it went up in flames off the shore of McIvor Lake.
The small pleasure craft, outfitted with an inboard-outboard motor combination, burst into flames as the owner attempted to start it just after putting it in the water at the public boat launch around 12:45 p.m.
“He went to start it, and you see
flames right away,” said Glenn Svensson, who was waiting in queue to put his own boat into the lake. “He slams down the hatch and jumps out, and the next thing, he’s standing in the water trying to push it out from shore.”

Contrary to the rumour circulat-ing on social media sites recently, the mayor of Campbell River does not, in fact, want the homeless peo-ple of our community to starve.
A recent Facebook post spread-ing amongst Campbell River social media users – accusing Mayor Andy Adams of trying to shut down a local initiative to feed the city’s homeless population – is unfounded, he said at a recent rally to support Grass-roots Kind Hearts.
Grassroots Kind Hearts is an ini-tiative started by Campbell River’s Krissandra Rufus to provide food to the homeless in the downtown core. It’s not an organization, but it is becoming a movement.
The initiative’s volunteers provide supper to any in need behind Radi-ant Life Church on Cypress Street every weekday.
It started when Rufus’ nephew messaged her, saying he was home-less and hungry.
“So I came down to bring him some food, and he had all these friends down here, and I thought, ‘Well, I can’t just feed him, I have to feed everybody,’” she said at the rally Thursday, which featured a bluegrass band, petitions to the City, and boxes of donations flowing in to help.
“I was homeless before, too, about
25 years ago,” she said, so she under-stands the difficulty faced by those members of our community. “I can’t see them not eat.”
She started the initiative by setting up a table near the Visitor’s Centre, at Tyee Plaza, but they were shuffled along, she said, and set up at Robert Ostler Park. After being “harassed” by the police, Rufus said, they found a temporary home behind Radiant Life Church, with the blessing of pastor Art Van Holst.
“He gave us a trial period of two weeks, and we’ve been here three months now,” Rufus says. “He’s never asked us to leave.”
Recently, however, the group says they have been feeling the pressure to shut the initiative down – some saying by order of the mayor.
“The RCMP have been there tell-ing us they were told by the mayor to ‘clean up the town,’ and that includes the homeless people,” says Sue Tay-lor, who volunteers with the initia-tive. “We don’t know for sure that it came from the mayor, but we’ve been told it did.”
Taylor, who says she has a back-ground in the social service sector, having “worked with Income Assis-tance in the past,” said what they’re doing is helping address a wider problem within the community, and they should be feeling support from those in power – rather than harass-ment and pressure to stop.

“We want to work together to come up with solutions,” she said, “but it feels like they just want us to go away. Well, that’s not going to happen. We understand it’s a Band-Aid solution. We know that it’s a societal issue and we’re not going to solve it with food, but we’re doing what we can do to help. This is what we can do to help.”
The recent Facebook post calling out the mayor, which spurred the support rally Thursday, expressed support for Rufus and the initiative, and claimed, “The Mayor of Campbell River does not want her to feed the homeless!!!! It sickens me to think we have some one (sic) willing to do all this hard work and the Mayor thinks she should not. Please share, people need to know what this mayor is doing!!!!”
When the mayor got
wind of this, he immedi-ately came to the group’s defence.
“I have absolutely not talked to the police about this,” Adams says.
“I think anyone provid-ing a service like this for the community should be commended.”
In fact, he was one of the first people to sign
the petition at the event, which calls for the city to get on board and work with the initiative.
“It was really disheart-ening and disappointing to see the post – that was completely fabricated and false – that council, and in particular, me – was giving direction to the RCMP to keep bounc-ing these people around. That’s the last thing we want to do. We’ve got all these people that are providing invaluable ser-vices to our most vulner-able people, and we need to find ways to make it easier, not harder.”
He also says the city has already been work-ing with various organi-zations to come up with solutions to overcome the various barriers in place.
“The struggle that the city has is that while it’s a community issue, finan-cially it’s a federal and provincial responsibility.”
Where the city has been successful in making a
difference, Adams says, is in cooperative and collaborative efforts like Rose Harbour.
“The city owned the land, we offered the land at no cost, waived the development permit fees, provided all the util-ity hookups – which is a substantial amount – and then the organization was able to use that as matching in-kind money to leverage the province and the feds to build Rose Harbour.”
He says they should be using the types of models that have proven success-ful – like Rose Harbour, the soon-to-be Hospice House project, like Habi-tat for Humanity – and work together with all of the various organizations and stakeholders to work towards solving the prob-lem, and he and council are more than willing to do that.
Which is a relief to the folks involved in Grass-roots Kind Hearts. Food will continue to be dis-tributed behind the Radi-ant Life Church, with the blessing of the mayor, while they work together to find a more permanent solution.

Mayor: refutes Facebook rumours

Svensson said the man was accompanied by his wife, who was in the truck that had just backed the boat trailer into the water, and two daughters.
“His daughters were screaming, ‘Daddy, get away from the boat!’” Svensson said.
More than a dozen spectators looked on from the shore or from other boats on the water while Svensson and other witnesses flagged down a depart-ing car and yelled at the owner to call 911.
“They really need to put in a tower up there, because there’s no sig-nal,” he said.
“I told the first per-son I saw heading back to town to call.”
Campbell River fire-fighters responded and arrived to find the boat fully engulfed.
“We responded with a duty crew,” fire chief Ian Baikie said.
“They were able to extinguish the fire, but it looked like a total loss.
“Fortunately, nobody
was injured.”The boat was towed
away as fire crews inspected the area for any oil or other con-taminants in the water.
“The crews didn’t see any obvious fuel slick,” said Baikie.
The incident halted activity at the boat launch for about 45 minutes, Svensson said.
He had been wait-ing behind one other vehicle that was back-ing toward the water when the boat burst into flames.
During the wait for firefighters to arrive and complete their work, Svensson spoke to the boat’s owner, who was not identified.
“I found out he just paid $5,000 for that boat, used,” he said.
“It was their first trip with it. The scary thing was, the thing was fully engulfed in flames and the guy was at the bow trying to push it out.
“We’re all yelling at him to get away from the boat; it can blow or not blow at any time, depending on the tank. It really went up fast.”

The Conservative Party of Canada is under fire for the use of members of Scouts Canada in their lat-est photo op and campaign promise.
Conservative Party leader and Prime Minister Stephen Harper visited the North Island last week for a few by-invitation-only appearances, one of them featuring an announce-ment of possible funding for the Pacific Salmon Foundation if his party is re-elected.
During this announce-ment, three members of Scouts Canada, in their uniforms, could be seen off to one side of the podium, which caused the organization to respond on social media with the
Tweet, “Just a reminder that Scouts Canada mem-bers are not permitted to attend political events in uniform, we are non-par-tisan!”
According to CTV News, the Scouts Canada leader who committed the troops for use in the photo opportunity was Victoria’s Bruce Hallsor, a Conser-vative supporter who has co-chaired Conservative campaigns in the past.
The Scouts’ participation was not sanctioned by the organization, according to Scouts Canada spokesper-son John Petitti.
It’s not the first time Hallsor greeted Harper with a scout troop.
He also gathered his Scouts for a meeting at a Shell Aerocentre in North Saanich in January, 2014.
Following Friday’s
appearance by the Scouts at McIvor Lake, the uproar on social media was swift and scathing, with many accusing the Conserva-tives of using the children as props and calling for an official apology.
Alistair Taylor, group commissioner for the local chapter of Scouts Canada, First Willow Point Scouts (full disclosure, also the editor of this publication), confirmed his chapter was approached, and says they were misinformed as to what the children’s partici-
pation in the event would be.
“This was presented to us as an opportunity to meet the Prime Minister and go for a hike,” he said. “There was no mention of a policy announcement or photo opportunity.”
Halsor has said he would not have had the Scouts there in uniform had he known about the Scouts’ “non-partisan” policy against doing so. Scouts Canada has said it is investigating “how the appearance came about.”

In a two-day visit to Campbell River and the Comox Valley last week, Prime Minister Stephen Harper rallied Conservative Party sup-porters, drew scattered but vocal protests and stumbled into contro-versy when Scouts Can-ada objected to the use of uniformed scouts during his announcement of a proposed environmental initiative at McIvor Lake.
After arriving at Comox Airport Thursday after-noon, Harper met with search and rescue volun-teers before moving on to a private campaign event that evening at Coastal Black Winery in Black Creek.
The strategic location allowed Harper to stump for a pair of regional Con-servative candidates in ridings created since the party won its last federal election, in 2011.
Laura Smith, candidate for the North Island-Pow-ell River riding, served as master of ceremonies and introduced incumbent North Vancouver Island MP John Duncan, who is running for the Cour-tenay-Alberni seat.
Duncan, who served for a time in the Harper cabinet, then introduced the prime minister to a
cheering crowd in the open-sided pavilion at the winery.
Both Duncan and Smith were back with the prime minister Fri-day morning for the announcement of a plan — should the Conser-vatives be returned to power in the Oct. 19 fed-eral election — to ben-efit estuaries and wild salmon. The event was billed as a public appear-ance, but was held at a private residence over-looking McIvor Lake,
accessible only after pass-ing through several secu-rity checkpoints.
“We’re obviously extremely optimis-tic” about the party’s chances in the two rid-ings, Harper said during a brief question period following the announce-ment. “John has been a great representative and a great colleague for all of us for many, many years, and Laura will be a great addition to parliament.

Organizers of the next federal Green Party event in Campbell River will likely be looking for a larger room in which to host the public if last Thursday night’s event is anything to go by.
But whether those in attendance were there in support of local can-didate Brenda Sayers or to see special guest Dr. David Suzuki – or both – the atmosphere in the Maritime Heritage Cen-tre was certainly one of enthusiasm, if also a bit congested.
After bringing in a couple dozen more chairs than were origi-nally set up, organizers introduced Sayers and Suzuki and welcomed the public to their Town Hall meeting, billed as, “What Kind of Canada do we Want?”
Sayers opened the night by giving those in attendance a bit of background on herself, saying she comes from a hard-working First Nations family, has been proud to represent her people as a councillor, especially in the court challenge against the
Canada-China Foreign Investment Promotion and Protection Agree-ment (FIPA)
“I think it’s a very important quality to have to know who you are, to know that you’re going to stand for the people, no matter what the challenge, no mat-ter what comes your way. I will stand for the people,” Sayers said.
She went on to talk about how her values mesh with the values of the Green Party of Can-
ada, which is why she wanted the candidacy.
“The Green Party is unique in Canada,” she said.
“It doesn’t fit into the archaic political model that Canadians have been forced to vote for. The Green Party isn’t too far to the left, nor is it too far to the right. It covers the entire politi-cal spectrum. We have sound economic poli-cies, just social policies and progressive envi-ronmental policies.
We are not a one-issue party. And the truth is that the Green Party of Canada is the only party that opposes natural resource extraction that causes irreparable harm to the environment and to the people.”
She also said the direction that has been taken on energy devel-opment needs to shift towards renewables in order to combat climate change.

“British Columbians are probably going to be in a position to decide the outcome of this election,” he added, noting the prov-ince has been granted six additional ridings since the 2011 election.
While Harper received adulation inside Thurs-day’s invitation-only event in Black Creek, his visit prompted several small protests during the day.
A group of perhaps 40 waved “Stop Harper” and other signs from the 17th
Street bridge in Cour-tenay around the time he flew into the Comox Airport.
A rumoured stop by Harper at the Quinsam Hall in Campbell River later in the afternoon drew the threat of a pro-test action by a social media group, but only a half-dozen residents appeared at the hall at 4 p.m. to find all was quiet.
Finally, another group of perhaps 40 people staked out a spot at the intersection of South Island Highway and Endall Road in Black
Creek to wave signs at vehicles en route to Coastal Black Winery for the campaign event.
Hal Hewitt of Merville played a sousaphone with a sign over its bell reading, “Face the music Harper” as campaign rally guests departed the winery. Several of the attendees waved and honked at the protesters, while others rolled down their windows to yell, “Get a life!”
“Ah, there’s been four or five grumpy old white guys, but most of them have been good about
it,” said Grant Gordon of Dove Creek, who waved a “Stop Harper” sign at the departing vehicles. “Some of these people are our neighbours and, let’s face it, we’re all in this country together.”
In one notable instance, a woman who drove past the demonstrators turned around and drove back to throw an egg at them.
“I think it’s a perfect demonstration when you get egged,” said Chuck Murray, a veteran who has been battling Veter-ans’ Affairs over disabil-ity payments.

When Canadian Prime Min-ister Stephen Harper traveled to Campbell River and the Comox Valley last week, the visit offered local residents a rare chance for an up-close-and-personal look at their top elected official.
Who are we kidding? No, it didn’t.
In a tightly scripted and secu-rity-heavy blitz to stump for local Conservative Party can-didates in the upcoming Oct. 19 federal election, Harper did shake a few hands and sign a few autographs. But this special treatment was afforded only to a select handful of ticketed party faithful Thursday evening in a rally at Black Creek’s Coastal Black Winery.
Which was announced with about 75 minutes advance notice.
For anybody else hoping to catch a glimpse of the prime minister’s smiling face, their best chance was to catch the larger-than-life version painted on the side of the campaign bus that lumbered through the commu-nities Thursday and Friday car-rying national press and aides.
Campaigns certainly have the right to hold private functions
and fundraisers, and Thursday’s rally was never billed as any-thing else.
But Harper’s second appear-ance, held Friday morning at a private residence overlooking McIvor Lake, was portrayed as a “public event” in a brief press release to the Mir-ror. Problem was, it was announced at 6:49 a.m. and said only that local media interested in attending were requested to meet at the entrance to Elk Falls Provincial Park less than two hours later.
And that was simply to meet a media helper who would then guide us to the as-yet undisclosed location for the actual event, an announcement by the prime minister to a few dozen fans of a promised environmental initia-tive should the Conservatives be returned to government.
Oh, and this time — unlike Thursday night — questions from the press! Three, to be pre-cise (Mike Duffy, anyone?).
This hardly conjures images of Caesar marching triumphant through the streets of Rome. More like another panel of “Where’s Waldo?”
Granted, any country’s leader is expected a level of secu-rity. But the cloak-and-dagger
secrecy surround-ing Harper’s brief North Island tour seems symptom-atic of a closed-door approach to governance that runs counter to the concept of a healthy democ-racy.
Sure, there are plenty of people w ho show up with signs and, in one humorous
instance, a sousaphone, to dem-onstrate. In some cases, these protests seem little more than a visceral distaste of Harper him-self. But while a red, octagonal “Stop Harper” sign leaves some-thing to be desired in terms of public policy alternative, many citizens have very legitimate concerns about real government actions and policies.
Fortunately for them, they still have the vote.
And they have much greater access to their local riding can-didates.
Less than two weeks before Harper came surrounded by the palace guard, North Island-Powell River Conservative can-didate Laura Smith was racing fearlessly around the local log-ger sports ground surrounded by sharpened axes, chainsaws and little else between her and the public. You’ve still got nearly eight weeks to listen to and share your views with all four of our local candidates — and act accordingly on Oct. 19.
Pretty clearly, Harper arrived in the region for the purpose of shoring up support for both Smith and for longtime Conser-vative compatriot and ally John Duncan (Courtenay-Alberni) in ridings that appear to be up for grabs.
It just seems reasonable to think he could have been more supportive had he spread the message to a broader audience. Instead, we got a fine job of preaching to the choir — while the rest of the congregation was left out in the cold.

Harper tour plays to small crowd
While the temperatures are noticeably starting to cool – especially at night – there’s no question that summer is still in full swing. The beaches are still packed and people are still enjoying a few cold ones at backyard barbecues and gatherings.
Unfortunately, summer holidays, sunshine and high temperatures can combine to concoct a deadly cocktail of people drinking and driving, despite years of seeing the negative consequences of such actions.
RCMP hold roadblocks and police the roads best they can, but we all need to do our part to end drunk
driving.Only a concerted
effort will drive the message home that we need to put the brakes on drinking and driv-ing for good.
If you know your circumstances may include a couple of drinks, take the time to arrange a ride home or ensure you have a designated driver.
It’s much easier to take the time and plan ahead, compared to what you will deal with if you drink and get behind the wheel. It can save your life, the lives of those you love or the lives of innocent oth-ers. One bad decision can leave scars that never heal and a trail of shattered lives ruined by a booze-fuelled lapse in judgment.
You can be part of the solution by letting the police know if you see someone who is drinking and driving. While programs like drinking and driving CounterAttack and media coverage have resulted in a reduction in impaired driving offences, the sad reality is there are still people out there who just don’t get it. So please, enjoy your summer and help spread the word that there are more than just the RCMP watching.

Our ViewOur View
The PMO Culture of deception of the public and intrigue is blatant corruption of democracy. Either the PM (prime minister) knew and condoned this office atmosphere or didn’t have control of his office. Either way, he should resign.
The PM’s ignorant denial of the serious threat of Climate Change, stifling climate science and scientists, while pushing fossil fuels (despite over-whelming international scientific evidence of accelerating harm to ecology, society and econom-ics) is humiliating Canada internationally and is dangerous. This also calls for his resignation.

“With our collective minds, we need to change the moral direc-tion of our country, and believe it can be done with the right people sit-ting in the house, speak-ing on your behalf, and I would be honoured, honoured to be that per-son.”
With that, she intro-duced Suzuki.
“This is the first time I’ve spoken up during this campaign, and thank goodness it’s a long cam-paign,” he said, spurring laughter from the room. “You’re getting my virgin speech, so it’ll be kind of rough, but I’ll hone it over the coming weeks.”
He announced that he was not there to advo-cate for any organization, including the party who had invited him.
“I’m here to add my voice to do everything I can to make sure that Stephen Harper does not get in again,” he said to raucous applause.
He touted propor-tional representation, shared his outrage at the robocalls controversy and how it showed, he said, the Conservatives’ thoughts on democracy – intentionally mis-
leading people so they couldn’t exercise their right to vote – and, most fervently, the importance of recognizing the criti-cal role of science within our culture.
He said that the U.S./Russia battle to dominate outer space in the 1950s generated all kinds of spin-off benefit, because the U.S. dedicated itself to the cause of science and technology – the same way Canada must do now.
What we learned from the space race, Suzuki
said, is that we need to step up and make a com-mitment towards the goal we want to achieve.
“The Americans just said, ‘We’re gonna beat these guys.’ They had no clue how they were going to get to the moon and back, but they did it,” he said, and they did it by setting themselves a goal – which may have seemed unreach-able to some – and they
dedicated themselves to it. We can do the same in addressing climate change and our environ-mental footprint.
He went on to talk about the current Con-servative government’s track record and rela-tionship with science and statistics in creating public policy.
“I believe that in a society in which you are informed, the more
information we have, the better decisions we will be able to make. Give people more information and let them make wise decisions. The Harper government has moved in exactly the opposite direction. We know statistically that crime rates are falling, and yet he wants to expand our prison system. It doesn’t make any sense. We know that safe injec-tion sites save lives, and yet Harper opposes safe injection sites. When law enforcement offi-cers at all levels say that we need gun registra-tion, Harper has can-celled it and demanded that any trace of what we’ve got registered now be destroyed. It doesn’t
make any sense.”He also tore into the
Conservative govern-ment’s cancellation of the long-form census and their cancellation of science initiatives and programs as part of what he sees as “declaring war on environmentalism.”
He closed by agreeing with Sayers’ assertion that a change in attitude
from our politicians is needed for the country to move forward.
“We need a sense of moral climate in Ottawa, for God’s sake. We have a moral responsibility, not just for ourselves, but for future generations. We’ve got an obligation to them, and we have to start paying attention to that.”

Suzuki: Green Party invites environmentalist to speak
MIKE DAVIES/CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
An audience member at Thursday night’s event asks North Island-Powell River Green Party candidate Brenda Sayers what her plan is to address the Indian Act and how she’d act in Ottawa to ensure First Nations people “get the help they need.”

Island Health has identified a private sur-gical partner and has entered into contract negotiations on a deal that could help alleviate the backlog of sched-uled surgeries with the opening of a new centre in Victoria in 2016.
Surgical Centres Inc. was identified as the best of three proposals submitted in a Request for Proposals (RFP) by Island Health in April. Island Health aims to have a contract in place by fall and the new facil-ity open by the middle of 2016, if not sooner.
Island Health (for-merly Vancouver Island Health Authority) has contracted with private surgical providers since 2004, including a deal with Seafield Surgical Centre in Nanaimo.
“Since that time, thou-
sands of patients have benefited from timely, accessible, publicly funded day surgery,” said Norm Peters, direc-tor of Surgical Services and Heart Health. “By increasing the number of surgeries and colo-noscopies we perform outside hospital, we can free up operating rooms for more complex cases and reduce wait times for both day and inpa-tient services.”
The proposed new centre in Victoria would serve primarily patients
on the South Island, where Island Health has identified the greatest demand and most lim-ited capacity to expand surgery volumes. But the RFP also asked the provider to perform between 2,500 and 3,000 colonoscopies in the Central Island.
“What this will look like for your area will be part of the con-tract negotiations that will begin now,” Island Health spokesperson Suzanne Germain said in an email. “The good
news is that we are increasing the volume of hip and knee surger-ies that will be done in Campbell River. We are planning to do 54 more hip and knee surgeries at CRH this year.”
The types of publicly funded surgeries to be performed at the pro-posed Surgical Centres location include general surgeries like hernia repairs and gall bladder removal; orthopedics like arthroscopic pro-cedures, knee ligament and shoulder proce-
dures; plastic surgery; vascular procedures including ligation and varicose vein opera-tions; and pediatric dentistry.
“Surgeries that won’t be done are … more complicated procedures that would require an overnight stay or longer in hospital,” said Ger-main.
But while the con-tracted centres will not provide for all types of surgery, the procedures they take on do reduce the load on the existing
system and reduce wait times for other surger-ies.
Under this surgery partnership model, the contracted surgi-cal facility will func-tion as an extension of the operating rooms of Island Health’s hospi-tals, using the health authority’s waitlists and physicians. Island Health will manage the surgical/colonoscopy bookings and all pro-cedures are publicly-funded.
Surgical Centres has
been in operation for 27 years and has six surgi-cal facilities in three provinces providing publically-funded sur-gical services support-ing provincial wait list reductions.
“Island Health has been very satisfied with the service provided at Seafield Surgical Cen-tres, and the Saskatoon and Regina Qu’Appelle Health Regions report to us they are also fully satisfied with Surgical Centre’s services,” said Peters. “

The Campbell River Shrine Club made a spe-cial visit to Campbell River Hospital recently to deliver a donation that will support the pur-chase of three important
pieces of equipment – a baby weigh scale, Nellcor Pulse Oximetry and Bili-lights.
On average, 400 babies are born in the Campbell River Hospital each year
and an infant Stabilette, or weigh scale, is present at each birth.
The Nellcor Pulse Oximetry is a hand-held, portable unit that is used for monitoring heart rate
and oxygen in the blood stream.
Bili-lights are a type of light therapy (photother-apy) that is used to treat newborn jaundice. Jaun-dice is a yellow colour-ing of the skin and eyes which is caused by too much of a yellow sub-stance called bilirubin.
Through the com-munity’s support, the Campbell River Shrine Club is able to make this donation to help pur-chase these important pieces of equipment for children.
Shriners are a brother-hood of men commit-ted to family, engaged in ongoing personal growth, and dedicated to providing care for children and families in need.
Their backgrounds and interests are diverse, but they are bound together by shared values and a desire to have fun, do good, and build rela-tionships that can last a lifetime.

Gold & Shadow, a four-piece art rock group from Nanaimo is excited to announce the release of their debut full-length album Torch on Friday, Sept. 4 and the premiere of their video for “Half Moon.”
Gold & Shadow is also hitting the road for a string of Western Cana-dian dates, starting on Vancouver Island on Sept. 9 in Parksville.
The group comes to Campbell River on Sept. 10 to play at the Campbell River Baptist Church.
Gold & Shadow has a wild, passionate sound that will capture your heart and mind. Their vigorous and organic approach to music is a perfect companion for the wild, oceanic land-scapes of their Vancou-ver Island home, and a testament to the hope, beauty, and inspiration found therein.
With a penchant for creative, soaring melo-
dies, they are intent on creating a dynamic, tuneful response to the natural wonders of the Island area. Influenced by the likes of Jeff Buck-ley, Radiohead, and Bon Iver, Gold & Shadow also shares many of the same sonic ambitions as Vancouver’s We Are The City, Saskatoon’s Close Talker, and Victoria’s Zerbin.
Torch i s Gold & Shadow’s debut release. Their music has previ-ously been included on compilations such as All Together Now, a 2012 Seva Canada char-
ity album featuring Canadian artists such as the Great Lake Swim-mers, and they have also proudly shared the stage with diverse Canadian talent ranging from PEAK Performance Project finalists We Are The City, Jordan Klassen, Vince Vaccaro, and Tow-ers and Trees, to groups such as Zerbin and Paper Lions. It’s been a wild ride so far for Gold & Shadow and the band is looking forward to the release of Torch.
“We’re excited to finally release the record, and get it out there into
people’s ears,” singer Dane Letourneau says. “We’re also looking for-ward to hitting the road and sharing these songs with audiences across Western Canada. It’s been a long time coming, but we’re proud to finally release a record which we feel fully represents us as a group.”
Torch will be available on iTunes and all other digital retailers on Fri-day, Sept. 4.
For more on Gold & Shadow and a complete list of tour dates, visit www.goldandshadow.com.

Brakes, shocks and mu� ers? YOU BET!
The new art banners going up on the Island Highway where it runs through the industrial part of Campbell River are another sign of changing times in the Campbellton neighbourhood.Forty large two-sided vertical banners bearing stylized images of salmon are being put up by the City on lightposts on Tamarac and Willow Streets as part of the City's overall beautifi cation program, with additional funding from the Pacifi c Salmon Foundation and the Campbellton Neighbourhood Association plus contributions from the artists, Curtis Wilson and Larry Stefanyk, and others. An additional 10 banners were being sold as fund-raisers for the CNA by vice-chair Kealy Donaldson, co-ordinator of the project.The vinyl banners are expected to last for several years but their erection now is a timely coincidence with the salmon spawning season in the mighty Campbell River, still one of the world's greatest fi shing rivers, plus it coincides with a new push by the CNA on its next major project: getting an "entrance feature" added on the Island Highway near 14th Avenue, on the northwest side of Campbellton near the Eagles Hall.With the successful completion of the CNA's community garden development, CNA chair Brian Shaw and other directors are turning their attention to preparing a presentation to Council in October that will propose erecting a Beaver fl oat plane on a pedestal on the site.The proposed location of the new facility is a vacant pie-shaped parcel of land where the highway divides onto the one-way Tamarac and Willow Streets, which the CNA suggests could be used as a pull-out for tourists and other travellers, perhaps with maps and other information like pamphlets on hand, and a preliminary study suggests there is enough room at the site for safe entrance and exit lanes and numerous parking spaces.That makes sense now because the streets through Campbellton have become the main access ways for much of the highway traffi c entering and leaving downtown Campbell River, especially for commercial trucks and industrial equipment but also motorhomes and trailers, pickups towing boats and even commuters from the airport - as well as lots of tourists and local traffi c in cars.The recent occasion of the photo opp for the banners on the bridge over the river also illustrated that there is a lot of varied traffi c on the Island Highway now as well as on the highway to the John Hart Generating Station Renewal Project, and to the city's waste dump, the Campbell Lakes, two mines and the West Coast via Gold River, plus northward to industries in Campbell River North, Middle Point, Brown's Bay and the whole North Island.All that traffi c makes a good argument that the City would benefi t from having a place where such traffi c could easily pull into a rest stop and consider options such as where to have a meal or where to stay for the night or where to go to get a tire fi xed. (There happen to be some good restaurants in Campbellton too, plus several tire stores, but those are stories for another day!)The unique and hopefully compelling aspect of the CNA's proposal is the inclusion of the full-size Beaver
fl oat plane, which would be similar to the small jet on a pedestal at the Courtenay-Comox tourist centre but the Beaver would be more fi tting to the industrial history of Campbell River because fl oat planes were and still are such integral parts of the local logging industry - the industry the town was built on.Shaw says CNA directors have located a retired plane that would serve well for that site but it remains to be seen if fi nances for it can be raised and one possibility is for the City to apply for a grant from the Canada 150 Fund."Clearly the City of Campbell River would benefi t from having a better tourist reception facility at what is now its main entrance and we believe having that iconic plane there would help cause more people to stop and maybe shop in Campbellton too," said Shaw, noting details can be worked out on such things as number of parking spaces and maybe whether a new sani-station should be installed.

It is with great sorrow that Ed’s family announces his death at Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops, BC at the age of 94. He was predeceased by Bonnie, his best friend and wife of 70 years. He is survived by his children Marilyn (Harold) Gordon of Kamloops, Donna (Derek) Cox of Black Creek, Kathy (Clayton) Martin of Cowichan Bay, Gerry (Rosa, deceased) Ellis of Kamloops, and Jack (Claire) Ellis of Crofton, foster children Richard and Jeannie Hanuse and their families, along with 16 grandchildren, 19 great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandson. Ed was born John Oliver Gossel in Winnipeg, MB and at the age of seven months was adopted by the Ellis family of Shellbrook, SK. He graduated from high school at Macdowall, SK in 1939 and enlisted in the RCAF. After completing basic training at the Manning Depot in oronto, he went to ying school in renton hoping to become
a bomber pilot. But because of air sickness, he went back to Toronto where he trained in mechanics and motor transport. While stationed at No. 5 Bombing & Gunnery School at Dafoe, SK, he met Bonnie who was a cook in the of cers’ mess and they were married there in 1943. They were the rst RCAF couple in Canada to receive permission to marry while both were in uniform. After being posted to Prince Rupert and Prince George, Ed left the RCAF in 1946 and the family moved to Campbell River where he began his career in the trucking industry, driving for General Construction during the building of John Hart dam. In 1947 he, Bonnie and their 2 daughters moved to the Comox Valley where he drove for Island Freight until it was bought by CP Transport at which time he quit driving to become terminal manager. In 1959, Ed was transferred to Port Alberni for a year then to Campbell River. After leaving CP Transport in the late 1960s, he went back driving, rst for Orecan Mine, then for Kelsey Bay Freight and nally for Westmin (now Nyrstar Myra Falls) eventually becoming manager at the Tyee Spit loading dock and weekend supervisor at the mine. Retiring in 1985, Ed and Bonnie moved to Kamloops to join their son Gerry in his trucking business. Dad was very well liked and respected by everyone he knew and worked with, and he was very devoted to his family. He loved us unconditionally, and by example taught his children the importance of dedication, honesty and loyalty in whatever we did without looking for special recognition. We are so grateful that he passed suddenly and peacefully and is now reunited with Mom. He missed her every day since her death 15 months ago, and they are both now with God.The family thanks Dr. Andrew Wynne and the staff at The Hamlets at Westsyde for their compassion and care, and Personal Alternative Funeral Services for nal arrangements.Ed and Bonnie will be commemorated on a plaque at the Maritime Heritage Centre in Campbell River, and their ashes will be interred at Hillside Cemetery in Kamloops in May 2016.

It is with great sorrow that Ed’s family announces his death at Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops, BC at the age of 94. He was predeceased by Bonnie, his best friend and wife of 70 years. He is survived by his children Marilyn (Harold) Gordon of Kamloops, Donna (Derek) Cox of Black Creek, Kathy (Clayton) Martin of Cowichan Bay, Gerry (Rosa, deceased) Ellis of Kamloops, and Jack (Claire) Ellis of Crofton, foster children Richard and Jeannie Hanuse and their families, along with 16 grandchildren, 19 great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandson. Ed was born John Oliver Gossel in Winnipeg, MB and at the age of seven months was adopted by the Ellis family of Shellbrook, SK. He graduated from high school at Macdowall, SK in 1939 and enlisted in the RCAF. After completing basic training at the Manning Depot in oronto, he went to ying school in renton hoping to become
a bomber pilot. But because of air sickness, he went back to Toronto where he trained in mechanics and motor transport. While stationed at No. 5 Bombing & Gunnery School at Dafoe, SK, he met Bonnie who was a cook in the of cers’ mess and they were married there in 1943. They were the rst RCAF couple in Canada to receive permission to marry while both were in uniform. After being posted to Prince Rupert and Prince George, Ed left the RCAF in 1946 and the family moved to Campbell River where he began his career in the trucking industry, driving for General Construction during the building of John Hart dam. In 1947 he, Bonnie and their 2 daughters moved to the Comox Valley where he drove for Island Freight until it was bought by CP Transport at which time he quit driving to become terminal manager. In 1959, Ed was transferred to Port Alberni for a year then to Campbell River. After leaving CP Transport in the late 1960s, he went back driving, rst for Orecan Mine, then for Kelsey Bay Freight and nally for Westmin (now Nyrstar Myra Falls) eventually becoming manager at the Tyee Spit loading dock and weekend supervisor at the mine. Retiring in 1985, Ed and Bonnie moved to Kamloops to join their son Gerry in his trucking business. Dad was very well liked and respected by everyone he knew and worked with, and he was very devoted to his family. He loved us unconditionally, and by example taught his children the importance of dedication, honesty and loyalty in whatever we did without looking for special recognition. We are so grateful that he passed suddenly and peacefully and is now reunited with Mom. He missed her every day since her death 15 months ago, and they are both now with God.The family thanks Dr. Andrew Wynne and the staff at The Hamlets at Westsyde for their compassion and care, and Personal Alternative Funeral Services for nal arrangements.Ed and Bonnie will be commemorated on a plaque at the Maritime Heritage Centre in Campbell River, and their ashes will be interred at Hillside Cemetery in Kamloops in May 2016.

PROCESS
Campbell River hockey fans get their first look at the defending Western Canadian champions this weekend when the 2015-16 edition of the Storm takes to the ice for some exhibition hockey action.
The Storm play host to the Oceanside Generals in a pair of pre-season games (Friday night at 7:30 and Sunday afternoon at 1:30), and will also have all their returning veterans and top prospects on hand for an intra-squad game at 7:30 Saturday night at Rod
Brind’Amour Arena.Although the lineup is
vastly different from the powerhouse squad that won it all last year, Head Coach and General Manager Lee Stone has managed to keep a core of key veterans to build around. Included in that group is newly-appointed team captain Gage Colpron, who led the team in scoring last season with 84 points. Also returning are forwards Kobe Oishi and Colin Blake, along with steady defense-man Ryan Grills.
Stone made some key off-season additions as well, acquiring high-scoring cen-treman Braeden Cyra from Kelowna, gritty two-way for-ward Alex Rosolowsky from Kimberley, and hulking 6’5”, 201 lb defenseman Darryl Senholt from Osoyoos.
Stone expects this week-end’s play will go a long way toward determining the final roster for the regular season opener on Sept. 4.
“On Friday we’ll splash in a few of the younger kids who are still battling for those last
few spots,” he says. “For the intra-squad game on Satur-day, it will be our top 30 – basically everyone playing in that game will either be on the team or affiliated with our program this year. Then on Sunday we’ll slim right down and basically play our go-to lineup, the one fans will see in our home opener against Nanaimo on Sept. 4.”
The Storm was origi-nally scheduled to meet the North Vancouver Wolfpack this weekend but the PCHL squad had to cancel because
of unforeseen circumstances.“North Van had a coaching
change recently which forced them to pull out, so we’re very thankful to the Gener-als organization for stepping up to play these exhibition games,” says Stone.
Campbell River swept Oceanside 4-0 in the first round of the VIJHL playoffs last season but Stone expects a much tougher opponent this time around.
“It certainly sounds like they’re going to be a stron-ger club this year,” said Stone.
“With Brad Knight behind the bench and Rob Gaud-reault as the new general manager, that gives them some experience and leader-ship at the top. In terms of the team they’ll have, I’m assum-ing they have a good group of players returning so they should be a much more com-petitive team this season.”
The weekend kicks off with a Tailgate Party at 4:30 Fri-day afternoon at Strathcona Gardens, where fans can get autographs from their favou-rite Storm players.

TERRY GUESTSPECIAL TO THE MIRROR
The Island Dwarf cars and the Bomber cars returned to a sunny Sara-toga Speedway Saturday, getting their chance to rip up the 3/8-mile oval for the first time since early July. Filling out the card on Saturday were the Roadrunners and the Hornet cars, with track conditions excellent for all classes.
Yet another great field of Hornet cars took to
the track on Saturday, with 35 cars entering into qualifying. Heat race wins in the Hornet division went to Clancey Beamish, Dana Acker-man, Trey Woolcock and Glenn White. The 25-lap Courtenay Auto Repair Hornet B main event was a very tight battle between TJ Halliday and points leader Rowland Westra. The two battled bumper-to-bumper for all 25 laps, with Halliday finally getting the upper hand on Westra and
holding on to take home his first main event win of the year. Unfortu-nately, Halliday ended up blowing his motor moments after taking the checkered flag, almost certainly ending his sea-son a few races early.
A 20-lap Hornet A main saw Blair Mangles grab the lead on lap one and he would not be challenged from that point on as he claimed his first main event win of the year.
In the Bomber car divi-
sion, the Larson family took charge. Darren Lar-son won the dash, son Boston Larson won the heat, and brother Dar-rel Larson won the First Insurance 15-lap main event.
Nine Dwarf cars from across the Island made the trip to Saratoga on Saturday. They were awarded two heat races, with the first 10-lap heat going to Tyler Peters, and the second, eight-lap reverse heat to Brad Scafe. Eight cars entered
into a very competitive 20-lap main event that developed into a tight battle between the top four cars. Tovay Hel-geisen grabbed the lead on lap two and managed to hold off a hard-charg-ing pack to take home her first main event win of the year.
A full field of seven Roadrunners lined up, with Tristen Zeinstra finding the winners square for the first time in the four-lap dash, and repeating by squeaking
out a tight win in the 10-lap heat.
The Shaw Cable 20-lap main event for the Road-runners saw Austen Hack hold the lead for the first seven laps before points leader Ryan Guest found his way around Hack to take home his tenth main event win this year.
Extra laps … This weekend the Wilroc Lite Sprint cars will make their final appearance of the 2015 season at Saratoga. Mother Nature
washed away their last scheduled visit, but with a month’s rest from Sara-toga, you know these speed demons will be anxious to get back on the Black Creek oval. The I.M.C.A Modifieds, who also haven’t raced at Saratoga in more than a month, will be on the card as well, with the Dwarf cars and the Old Time Modified Stock cars rounding out the night of open-wheel rac-ing, with Marine Harvest sponsoring.
Bombers, Dwarf cars return to track after rain delay
Catch o’ the dayFor the first time in the six years of the Tour de Rock Fishing Derby in Sayward, a clean sweep of the leader board was posted by Bill Prior (right) Sunday. His catch of a 22.2-pound spring, a 47.5-pound hali-but and 22.6-pound ling cod were tops in each category and earned him three picks of prizes at the derby. The benefit drew 116 adults after 12 kids fished in the Kids’ Derby Saturday (at left).All money raised will be donated to the Tour de Rock riders, who will arrive in Say-ward Sept. 22. Last year Sayward raised about $14,000 with the fishing derby and its annual Tour de Rock golf tournament.

The Campbell River Midget AA Tyees sport their silver medals following the provincial champion-ships in Richmond.

Front: coach Stewart Dumont, Owen Boyd, Tyson Dumont, Fraser Stewart, Ryan Cessford and coach Darren Boyd.
Tyees midgets snare silverThe Campbell River
Midget AA Tyees snared silver medals in the recent provincial cham-pionships following a narrow 2-1 loss to Ridge Meadows in the champi-onship final.
Pitching and defence set the tone for the Tyees, who allowed only three runs in their first 24 innings. In the final, pitchers Fraser Stewart and Drew Savery com-bined to blank Ridge Meadows after a first-inning walk and home run staked the Royals to an early 2-0 lead.
R i d g e M e a d o w s matched the Tyees with stellar pitching and
defence until Campbell River broke through for a run in the seventh and final inning, but the Tyees rally fell short.
Stewart pitched a gem as Campbell River opened the tournament with a 6-0 win over the Surrey Cardinals. Devon McLean had 3 RBIs to pace the offence and Sav-ery came in for the save.
In game two, the Tyees ran into a hot Vancou-ver Yankees pitcher as they lost a tight defen-sive game, 2-1. Braxten Barnes and Chris Beech split the pitching duties, spreading four hits over seven innings. Even in the loss, though the
Tyees’ solid defensive showing would come back to pay off later, in the tiebreaker to deter-mine the medal-round lineups.
The Tyee bats came alive in an 18-1 romp over Richmond in the third game. Jared Baker had a strong night at the plate with 3 RBIs; Owen Boyd went 5-for-5; and Tyson Dumont, Braxten Barnes and Chris Beech all went 4-for-5 in the win. Savery, Dumont and Ryan Cessford combined to two-hit the Chuckers.
That win, combined with the low runs-against, propelled the Tyees into the provincial semifinals against the always-potent Prince George Knights.
After a nip-and-tuck start, the Tyees broke the game open in the fourth inning and rolled to a convincing 13-6 win. Mike Sampson con-tinued his great work behind the plate, catch-ing Barnes’ solid pitching performance.
Sampson was also very savvy at the plate, drawing four walks and scoring three times,
and Colin Walley had a great day going 3-for-4 and scoring twice. The tight game was broken wide open in the fourth inning as Cessford went 3-for-4 with 4 RBIs.
That vaulted the Tyees into the final against Ridge Meadows, a tre-mendous defensive bat-tle with numerous out-standing catches and double plays. The Tyees had runners in scoring position three different times but couldn’t cash in as they were stymied by long foul balls and tremendous outfield defense by the Royals.
“I would like to thank the great parent group and families for a great run,” coach Stewart Dumont said. “And we couldn’t have asked for a more committed groups of ballplayers that did themselves proud.”
The midgets played this summer without a league on Vancouver Island. Aside from trav-elling for outside tour-nament play, the team managed to get several exhibition games thanks to the Seymour Services Rockies men’s team.

Explore the more secretive side of sealife
Do you want to discover some critters that you have never seen before?
If so, head down to Campbell River’s Discovery Pas-sage Aquarium this Friday night between 8 and 10 p.m. When it’s getting dark outside, the Aquarium tanks will start to shine.
“This is a great time to observe many of the smaller or more secretive animals” says Mark Wunsch, Presi-dent of the Discovery Passage Sealife Society, which operates the Aquarium.
“The darker atmosphere in the Aquarium makes it easy to spot even the tiniest critters and colours and shapes really stand out, the same effect you can have on a night dive in the ocean,” he adds. Aquarium staff will have some flashlights at hand to help you search.
Those who can’t make it should plan their visit soon as the Aquarium will be closing for the season at the end of the school holidays Sept. 7.
The good news is, though, the society is about to open its new Explorer Lab at the Maritime Heritage Centre across from the Aquarium. Twice as big as the Aquarium, the Explorer Lab will offer a variety of programming around our coast and ocean.
Stay tuned for the opening announcement.
Friday night at the Discovery Passage Aquarium is your chance to check out some of the more secretive critters of the sea – like this wolf eel.

EVERY DAY AFTER 1 PM
I used to make fun of those people.
You know the ones. �ey stand beside their ball and hold up some doohickey binocular-looking contraption to get their exact distance to the pin even though they’re standing right beside the 150-yard marker, as if having an exact distance to the pin is going to make a di�erence in their club selection. Just pull a club and hit it, already!
Well, that all changed when my parents asked me what I wanted as a graduation gi�, and I couldn’t think of anything I really needed in the price range they were talking about.
I’d been improving my game a bit, at the time, and thought it might be advantageous to have a more exact number during club selection, so I asked for a range�nder.
I couldn’t have picked a better gi�. �ere is nothing in my bag that helps my game as much as my Nikon Coolshot.
Yes, I use it to �nd the exact distance to the pin from the fairway (more o�en the rough, if we’re being accurate) so I can (hopefully) pick the right club, but I also use it on the tee to �nd the distance needed to carry the fairway bunker, how far it is to that tree on the inside of the dogleg so I can be sure to take enough club to be past it, or when I get to my teeshot and point it back to the tee box to see how far I crushed my driver.
What I �nd it most valuable for, however, is how it makes me change the way I think about my game.
Having my range�nder makes me think more, slow down, and focus on what I need to do, allowing me to hit better shots simply because my mind is where it needs to be when I’m on the course.
Instead of, “I’m about 150 yards out, I guess I’ll hit a 9-iron,” it’s, “Okay, I’m 147 yards out, but the green is a little below me, so the ball will carry further, but the wind is slightly in my face, so I’ll have to adjust for that,” and I will play my shot accordingly.
It also lets me know how far the 150 (or 100) marker is when I’m laying up on a par-5, so I can take the right club out of my bag to give myself the distance I want to be approaching the hole from.
Sure, it doesn’t always work out. I’m not good enough at the game to be able to execute the minute changes in my swing needed to take all of these pieces of information into account and make them work for me, but I like that I force myself to consider all those factors.
It puts me in a better position mentally to play the game.
And since this is a mental game, being in a better mental place while you’re playing it can only have positive results in the long run.
Me and my range�nder at �e Dunes in Kamloops last year.

Chamber Names 2015 Board of Governor RecipientThe Campbell River Chamber has announced Kermit Dahl, Owner Associated Tire, as the recipient of the 2015 Board of Governors Award for the Business Awards of Distinction. The Board of Governors award is presented by the Chamber’s Board of Directors and honors a business person who displays a significant commitment to the success of both their business and the community as a whole; demonstrates business leadership and vision; and serves as a positive role model or mentor for other business people in the community.
“We are pleased to honor Kermit as this year’s recipient in recognition of his hard work, commitment to the success of his business, team and clients and his overall dedication to making Campbell River a great community to live and work in.” stated Corby Lamb, Chamber Board Chair.
When Kermit was finishing high school in Red Deer, Alberta, he knew his career would either be in cars or cooking. He didn’t realize that a life with cars could also mean a life with cooking. But that’s how Kermit’s Campbellton business, Associated Tire and Auto, demonstrates community spirit and service: through donations of summer barbeques, popcorn and slushies.
Kermit’s father was a mechanic and that’s the path he chose, too. Having married his high school sweetheart, Betty, he followed his dad to Campbell River in 1985. After arriving here, he began his automotive apprenticeship, completing it at Fountain Tire in 1991. He is a Red Seal Interprovincial Automotive licenced
technician.
In the mid-90s, Kermit worked for Pacific Regeneration Technologies, better known as the tree nursery. He was responsible for maintaining and developing all of their equipment, both for the silviculture and the nursery operations, across BC. In 1997, he returned to Fountain Tire where he worked until 2010. His reputation as a skilled, personable, trustworthy expert blossomed there.
His move to entrepreneurship came in March, 2011 when he bought the Big O Tire store in Campbellton, reopening it as Associated Tire and Auto, a franchise of OK Tire which has over 400 stores in Canada. He jokes that the bank did not want to lend him start-up money, judging that a tire business with sales under half a million dollars was not a good risk. Now, four years later, annual sales have reached nearly three million dollars.
His formula for success is simple. He says, “We do what our competition says they’ll do.” His staff is experienced and believes in what they do and sell. He wants people “to come in as a customer and leave as a friend.” A key component of the daily work is taking time to build trusting relationships with customers, giving advice about the perfect tire for the application, never going for the biggest sale.
Staff become like family, spending many hours working together. In fact, part of Kermit’s staff is family. Betty helps out at times in the office. Son David, a tire technician specializing in commercial tires, is learning everything he can about operating the business so he can step into
his father’s shoes when Kermit retires. Daughter Madison begins her third year of Education at UVic this fall.
Kermit’s philosophy regarding service is clear. He does what “we should all be doing – serving people in the community and around the world, giving what people want, need and deserve.” He belongs to Noon Hour Rotary Club, an organization dedicated, suitably, to “service before self.”
It’s in Kermit’s community service that the unique combination of cars and cooking is expressed. The Associated Tire barbeque, popcorn maker and slushie machine appear at many summer fundraisers and non-profit events. Sometimes they are on loan, sometimes operated by Kermit and his staff. The organizations supported by Associated Tire include Cameryn’ s Cause, Cops for Cancer, the CR Community Foundation, Shoreline Arts and Radiant Life Church.
This is the first major award for Kermit. He has never worked for recognition, instead remaining true to his value, “We do we what do, awards or not, never aiming for acclaim.”“Congratulations Kermit, our community looks forward to celebrating and honoring your success at the 2015 Business Awards of Distinction,” added Colleen Evans, Chamber President & CEO.The Board of Governors Award will be presented to Kermit at the Business Awards of Distinction event on Saturday, September 19 at the Tidemark Theatre. The event includes 14 award categories, a gala appetizer reception and food stations, specialty cocktails and a sumptuous dessert reception.
Tickets to this prestigious event are now on sale at:
www.campbellriverchamber.ca. Be sure to get your tickets soon, this
event sells out every year.
