Volunteers slogged through the thick mudflats of Oyster Bay Tuesday morning in a val-iant effort to save four stranded Pacific white-sided dolphins.
“It’s alright, you’re going to be okay,” said volunteer Colleen McClure as she gently stroked one of the dolphins and poured water over its body to keep the skin moist.
Another Oyster Bay neighbour, Bob Stoltz was up before 7 a.m., watching the dolphins feeding on fish in the bay...and then the tide went out.
Four of the dolphins became stuck on the mudflat, just north of Oyster Bay Shoreline Park. Stoltz trod out onto the flats and then contacted other neighbours who arrived with buckets and a large tarp.
By around 9 a.m., more vol-unteers had arrived to help and various agencies were contacted to assist in the rescue. The Van-couver Aquarium Marine Mam-mal Rescue Centre was contacted and they advised to not move the dolphins and to keep them wet
with sea water.However, with the tide still
going out and high tide many hours away, the volunteers made the decision to move the dolphins back out to sea, supporting them with a large tarpaulin.
By 9:15 a.m., one of the dolphins was successfully moved back to the Strait of Georgia and efforts continued to save the other three. An hour later, all four dolphins were free.
According to the Vancouver Aquarium, “Pacific white-sided dolphins are found through-out the temperate waters of the North Pacific Ocean from Japan to North America, and from the coasts of Alaska down to Baja, Mexico...In Canada, Pacific white-sided dolphins are listed as ‘Not at Risk,’ due to their large population numbers and wide distribution, but in many parts of their range across the North Pacific Ocean, these dolphins are taken both directly and indirectly in fisheries.”
For future reference in case any similar type of incident occurs again, the Marine Mammal Inci-dent Reporting Hotline number is 1-800-465-4336.

Coun. Roy Grant is seeking the mayor’s chair in this year’s election and has for-mer and current coun-cillors’ support behind him.
Grant announced his bid for mayor of Campbell River at Spirit Square on Fri-day in front of a group of nearly 20 supporters that included former
councillors Morgan Ostler, Laird Ruehlen and freeman Bill Mat-thews, as well as cur-rent councillor Andy Adams.
After nine years as a councillor, Grant believes he can best effect change at City Hall if he is elected as the city’s new mayor on Nov. 19.
“I just wasn’t up to the task of running for council again,” said Grant. “I think
the city is not going in the direction it should be and I’m not the type of person to sit around and complain about things, I do something about it.
“I felt if ever there was a time to run for mayor, this would be the time.”
Grant said he feels the city could benefit from change, but har-bours no ill feelings toward current Mayor Charlie Cornfield, who has yet to announce whether he will run again.
“I can only say what I think I’m able to do and what Charlie hasn’t been able to do but one thing I have to say about Charlie is that he always had the city of Campbell Riv-er’s best interests close to his heart, there’s no doubt about that,” said Grant. “I give him full credit for the work he’s done as a councillor and as mayor but as far as I’m concerned it’s time for a change in leadership.”
Grant, the longest current serving coun-
cillor, also spent six years on city council in Alberta in the 1980s.
While on Campbell River council he gained respect and apprecia-tion from many of his fellow councillors.
M a t t h e w s , w h o worked on council for 23 years, three of them with Grant, believes he is right for the job.
“Roy has always been dedicated to this city and is a positive-thinking guy,” said Matthews, who is also working as Grant’s campaign manager. “He always has the city in the front of his mind, not himself, but the city.”
Matthews said his friend, who he has known for 25 years, is a reasonable person that can get consensus, something he thinks is lacking on the current council.
“He has a common sense approach and is very level-headed. I think he can do a good job,” he said.
Adams, too, thinks Grant is right for the job.
“In the last five and a half years of working with Roy, there has not been a harder working member of council,” said Adams. “The two things about Roy is that he’s positive and optimistic.
“You don’t hear Roy being negative and say-ing what can’t be done, he’s always looking at what can be done.
“Should I choose to run for council again, I would love to work with Roy as mayor. We have some challenging times ahead and we need some positivity rather than the nega-tive.”
Adams said he also admires how Grant has the ability to respect people with opposing views and bring them together to move for-ward.
He also noted the sac-rifices Grant has made and the time he has spent away from his job as a realtor in order to serve the city.
Grant said he was overwhelmed by the amount of support from Adams, Mat-
thews, Ruehlen and Ostler and believes he won’t disappoint.
“We have faced many challenges in our city in the past years but with proper policy-making and management, we can all work together to reduce those chal-lenges and get on with the business of lead-ing the city into the future,” said Grant. “I am approachable, personable, optimistic, results-oriented and ready to be your mayor.
I have shown the lead-ership and team build-ing qualities required of a city leader and I am ready to use those skills as your mayor.”
Grant also encour-aged others to run for council or mayor, not-ing there will now be an extra spot on coun-cil available with him not running.
“Instead of sitting back and complaining about things, put your name forward as a can-didate,” he said.

Poles blessedThe city celebrated the completion of Highway 19A last Saturday with a ceremony that included a bless-ing by the Wei Wai Kum First Nation and a traditional First Nations dance. For the second time in four days, the city also demonstrated that a fire truck can pass a city truck on the narrow highway. Clockwise from right: Bill Henderson poses with two welcome poles he helped design and create Thursday before they were officially unveiled; Henderson blesses the wel-come poles during the celebration ceremony; Mayor Charlie Cornfield helps unveil the poles, a man and a woman looking out towards Cape Mudge.

Ken Forde Boat Ramp is slated to open toboaters on Canada Day after city plans toremove and dump gravel clogging up the rampwere approved late last week.
The free, public boat ramp has been coveredin debris since last winter and impossible touse. Big Rock Boat Ramp is also littered withlogs and gravel but boaters can access it, usingthe left side of the ramp.
Both are expected to be cleaned up this weekafter the Department of Fisheries and Oceans(DFO) approved the use of the gravel for fore-shore re-nourishment.
“It’s actually precious material that – if itwasn’t getting hung up at the boat ramps –would continue up the foreshore and nour-ish the beaches that are starved,” said RossMilnthorp, the city’s manager of parks, recre-ation and culture. “In some ways, and boaterswould not agree with me on this, the materialclogging the boat ramps is a blessing becauseit’s exactly the material we need to re-nourishthe foreshore.”
The gravel will be distributed along the beachfront just north of Rotary Park, and acrossfrom Best Western, where winter storms dam-aged the beach and parts of the Sea Walk.
“The long-term solution for foreshore pro-tection is for us to work with mother natureand use the material that clogs the ramps tonourish starved beaches at key locations,”said Milnthorp. “Nourishing the beach is avery effective and cost efficient way to protectthe shoreline.
“It looks natural, keeps land from washinginto the sea, restores habitat and protectsinfrastructure.”
Beach front at the Tyee Spit in the winterof 2007-08 and at Ellis Park, at the bottom ofRockland Road, in 2009 has already benefitedfrom gravel that washed up at Ken Forde Boat

Ramp. Both beaches were destroyed but have been completely restored. When select-ing this year’s site, the city also took into account forage fish, which make up about
80 per cent of a salm-on’s diet, said Neil Borecky, applications analyst for the city.
“After we chose the site north of Rotary, we tested the area for for-age fish eggs to make sure we’re not putting
material on top of the forage fish eggs,” said Milnthorp.
The city hopes to soften the shore in the Rotary Park beach area by creating a gradual slope and removing hard shoreline mate-
rial like rip rap (large rocks) to slow erosion.
A recent study con-ducted by the city, a foreshore assessment, determined the eroded section of beach would be the best location for the gravel and the easi-
est area to get approval for.
“The Rotary Beach design works have already been done and this is just an extension of an existing project,” said Milnthorp. “So it was much quicker
for the Department of Fisheries to approve.”
The study identi-fied beach front near Twilingate and Adams Park as areas most in need of re-nourish-ment but because both sites need to be re-
constructed, approval from DFO would have taken longer and held up cleanup at the boat ramps. DFO regula-tions stipulate the city cannot stockpile gravel while waiting to re-dis-tribute the materials.

Campbell River busi-nesses are in favour of the HST, according to a Campbell River Cham-ber of Commerce sur-vey.
The chamber took the pulse of its mem-bership on the per-ceived impacts of HST and the impacts that a return to the PST system would have on local business during a members-only online survey.
“It is apparent to us from our member’s response to the sur-vey” Chamber Execu-tive Director, Colleen Evans says in a press release, “that certain industry sectors have experienced more negative impacts from the HST than oth-ers but that from the responses we received from our members, they feel strongly that the HST will have a positive effect on our province and most British Columbia busi-nesses.”
The responses from 83 members pointed to overall support for the HST from the business perspective.
When asked to rate, on a sliding scale, the statement: “The HST will have a positive effect on most Brit-ish Columbia busi-nesses,” 67 per cent of the respondents com-bined selected “Agree” or “Strongly Agree” while only 17 per cent combined selected “Strongly Disagree” or “Disagree.”
On the topic of the
HST’s effect on BC’s economic competitive-ness, 51 per cent com-bined stated that they “Agree” or “Strongly Ag ree” that “The HST will have a posi-tive effect on British Columbia’s economic competitiveness,” 24 per cent were “Unsure” and 16 per cent com-bined either “Strongly Disagreed” or “Dis-agreed”.
Written survey com-ments, on the impact that the HST has had on member businesses, noted positive impacts that improved the cost of doing business such as: more streamlined bookkeeping, cost sav-ings on the purchase of production equip-ment, less paperwork for busy business own-ers allowing for greater productivity, and cost savings on business supplies.
Alternatively, mem-bers have also expe-r i e n c e d n e g a t ive effects from the HST including: strain on short term cash flow, customer concer ns about higher costs, an increase in costs for things that previously
were PST exempt and now have the HST, and hardship over adjust-ing to a new form of taxation.
T h e C a m p b e l l River Chamber notes value in the recent announcement to cut the HST from 12-10 per cent in that it makes the tax more palatable to consumers, families and some businesses which in turn may help the tax succeed in the upcoming referen-dum.
“Taking the pulse of our members was important and their general feedback is that the HST is good for business and we will continue to support the HST and encour-age others to learn about the attributes of the tax and show their support too,” says Chamber President Gary Thulin.
He adds, “What’s important during the HST referendum is for each person to under-take your own inde-pendent research first, make up your mind, and then vote, our eco-nomic competitiveness is at stake.”

Chamber members okay with HST Our WaterAre you
“that neighbour?” When it comes to lawn watering, there’s a type of neighbour that makes others roll their eyes in frustration. Answer the following questions to determine if you are “that neighbour”.
1. You’ve chosen to keep your grass green and healthy during summer.
You:a) Water at any time and however long you feel like,b) Water only before 7 a.m. or after 7 p.m. on your allotted day.2. You believe that following the sprinkling restrictions means:a) Turning your sprinkler on at 7 p.m. every second day and leaving it on until 7 am. b) Watering once or twice a week for 20 – 30 minutes within allotted times.3. You live on a hill and it’s your day to water the lawn. You:a) Run your sprinkler until water fl ows onto the street and down into the storm drain.b) Run your sprinkler for 10 minutes on, 10 minutes off, for several cycles to let the water soak in.4. You water your lawn and water very quickly fl ows off the lawn and onto the street.You:a) Keep watering, hoping that the grass can take a quick drink as the water fl ows past, kind of like a hydroponic operation.b) Realize your soil is compacted so you aerate, maybe add some extra top soil and check for thatch build-up. Mainly A answers: You are “that neighbour” and you are using more water than average. Mainly B answers: Good work, you are using water effi ciently. Average water use triples in summer time, and most of this increase is due to ineffi cient lawn and garden watering. Increased water use at peak periods compromises City of Campbell River fi refi ghting ability and increases operating and capital costs. For information on water-wise lawn and garden care visit the City of Campbell River website (www.campbellriver.ca), call or e-mail the water hotline: 250-203-2316, [email protected].

A Campbell River-based entrepreneur took on the ruthless dragons of the hit Canadian TV show, Dragons’ Den.
E l a i n e P o p o v e , founder of Miss Fix Fashion Products, was recently selected to present her new fash-ion product on the CBC show which allows aspiring business-people to pitch their business concepts and products to a panel of Canadian business moguls. The dragons put their own personal money on the line for products they feel will be successful, while earning shares in the business.
Popove, along with Shannon Baikie, a Campbell River busi-ness advisor, presented the dragons with her company’s premiere product, Fashion-Aid,
a roll-on fashion adhe-sive.
“We were very confi-dent with our answers and in the end we’re so glad we did it,” said Popove. “It was quite
the experience and you’re definitely out of your comfort zone, but when the opportu-nity comes knocking, you’ve got to take it. I would recommend this
to any entrepreneur.”Popove’s Fashion-Aid
product is a liquid fash-ion adhesive designed to secure slipping bra straps, low necklines or strapless dresses.
“ F a s h i o n - A i d i s approved by Health Canada, hypoaller-genic and water-wash-able,” said Popove. “It moves with your skin, rather than pulling it, leaving you feeling comfortable and confi-dent.”
The product first hit shelves in spring 2010 and since then, has retailed at more than 210 Canadian stores.
The invention was born on Popove’s wed-ding day while strug-gling with her strap-less gown. She real-ized all women worry about their clothing unintentionally slip-ping, shifting or falling down. Now a mom to a 14-month-old son, she is chasing after her toddler while building her business.
Popove went on Drag-ons’ Den to get some help expanding her business.
She said she had help from business friends Cathy Voth and Keith Davison in preparing for the show and the big stage in Toronto.
“Not only did they offer their expertise and knowledge but we were able to practice our pitch with them and let me tell you, they did a great job pretend-ing to be a Dragon,” said Popove.
Because of a confi-dentiality agreement between herself and CBC, Popove cannot divulge the outcome of her pitch,which she says has been extremely tough.

Marine Harvest and three Central Island First Nations have con-cluded three years of discussions intending to guide the operations of salmon aquaculture in their territories.
On June 24, the We Wai Kai, We Wai Kum and K’omoks First Nations celebrated the signing of a capacity-building agreement with Marine Harvest Canada.
T h e a g r e e m e n t requires environmen-tally sustainable prac-tices, provides eco-nomic and investment opportunities for the First Nations.
“We are very pleased to start a positive relationship between Marine Harvest Can-ada and our people,” says Chief Ralph Dick of the Wei Wai Kai Nation.
“It’s important that we have input into how companies operate within our territory since they are already here,” states Chief Robert Pollard of the Wei Wai Kum Nation, “and the best way to have our say is to work collaboratively. This agreement provides that opportunity.”
The signing increases the total number of
agreements between Marine Harvest and coastal First Nations to ten.
“Marine Harvest rec-ognizes the importance of working with local First Nation bands,” commented Vincent Erenst , Mana ging Director at Marine Harvest Canada.
“We look forward to working with our part-ners to ensure that our business promotes sustainability for our oceans, our economy and local communi-ties.”
Collectively, the three Nations and Marine Harvest Canada repre-
sent a significant por-tion of BC’s aquacul-ture production – both shellfish and salmon.
M a r i n e H a r ve s t Canada is BC’s larg-est producer of fresh farm-raised salmon and directly employs 550 staff.
We Wai Kai, We Wai Kum and K’omoks First Nations repre-sent approximately two thousand members and are in the shellfish business.

Between 2:45 and 5:45 p.m., transit service will stop for the Canada Day Parade. Service will then resume to help spectators get
home. Additional timing information for these routes is in the Campbell River Rider’s Guide or online at www.bctransit.com.
Funding for the Campbell River Transit System is cost-shared between the City of Campbell River and BC Transit through a partnership with the Strathcona Regional District.
Managing Your Money
The alphabet soup of retirementThere are the ABCs of retirement – Always Be ( nancially) Comfortable – and then there’s RRIF, LIF, SWP, GIF, LIB and more … an alphabet soup of acronyms and abbreviations that every retiree must wade through. What do they all mean?
RRSP – Registered Retirement Savings Plan An effective way to save for retirement while enjoying tax deductions on your contributions and compound tax-deferred growth inside your plan, you can contribute to your RRSP up to the end of the year in which you reach 71 – and then you have some decisions to make:
• Cash in your plan – the least advisable route because you’ll likely pay tax on the entire amount at the highest marginal tax rate.
• Convert your RRSP to a RRIF -- Registered Retirement Income Fund. RRIFs are very much like RRSPs with two exceptions: No further contributions are allowed to your RRIF once it has been established; and you are required to withdraw a minimum amount each year based on your age and the value of your RRIF.
• Buy a life annuity that will pay you a speci ed income, usually monthly, for the rest of your life.
• Buy a term-certain annuity that guarantees payments to you until you turn 90.
By the way, life annuities and term-certain annuities are the two main types of
and can be obtained in many variations. Another type of annuity to consider is the joint life/last survivor annuity that will continue payments to your spouse after your death.
Here’s some more alphabet soup to wade through:
LIF - Life Income Fund/PRIF – Prescribed Retirement Income Fund Similar to RRIFs in that you are required to withdraw a minimum amount each year but withdrawals are also ‘capped’ by pension legislation. You decide what amount to withdraw within the allowed range.
GIF – Guaranteed Income Fund or Guaranteed Investment Fund Also known as a segregated fund policy, a GIF is a form of insurance that combines the growth of investment mutual funds with the features of an insurance policy to provide you with the security of a guaranteed income for life.
LIB – Lifetime Income Bene t A GIF that provides a predictable, guaranteed income for life and is available to individuals at least 50 and under 91.
SWP – Systematic Withdrawal Fund A mutual fund feature that allows you to withdraw income at speci c times – usually monthly or quarterly – while your invested capital continues to grow. Works like dollar cost averaging in reverse -- you redeem more units when prices are down and less when they are higher.There’s more, such as CPP, QPP, OAS, and all this alphabet soup stuff can seem a little deep at times. Your professional advisor can help dish up the tastiest solutions for your lifestyle and retirement goals.

S BUS Bring the whole fam-ily! The Museum at Campbell River pres-ents Heritage Puppet Theatre shows begin-ning June 23, and sum-mer students Delaney Sullivan, Kyle Rosenke and Melissa Kubinec are excited about bring-ing Campbell River his-tory to life through the puppets and their sto-ries.
Some of the charac-ters you will have the pleasure of meeting are the forgetful Fred Nunns, the moody Cap-tain Vancouver and the
ferocious Ripple Rock. Cost is $2 per person
with children under three years of age free. For group of 13 or more, pay $25.
Perfor mances are at 10:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. every Tuesday and Thursday until the end of August. Shows run for 20 minutes and are followed by an enter-taining craft class. At each showing, children receive a puppet pass-port, which is stamped every time they attend. Once they have col-lected five stamps, the
next puppet show is free.
While at the museum, also check out Active History After noons (A.H.A’s) – offering an interactive and engag-ing view of our region’s history. Let us walk you through the evolution of the logging industry, a day in the life of a pio-neer, the development of the fishing industry, and more. AHA pro-grams are from 1-4 p.m.; most Mondays and Fri-days from June 27 to the end of August.
The Museum offers
free admission to Camp-bell River residents.

Two new city staff positions
had to be justified in front of
council Wednesday, the third day
of budget deliberations.
Council got hung up debating
the addition of a second custo-
dian for the Community Centre to
address safety concerns related to
working alone.The $77,000 per year position
was added to help support the
custodian working alone after
office hours who’s had to deal
with fighting and public drunke-
ness (see story on page A5).
“We had some very, very close
calls,” Ross Milnthorp, city parks,
recreation and culture manager,
told council. “We believe this
position is integral to the safety
of workers and customers.”
He said a joint health and safety
committee originally took a num-
ber of steps to fix the problem
including setting up cameras
and setting alarms on the doors
of the Community Centre. In the
end, the committee felt the best
solution would be to add a second
custodian.Coun. Claire Moglove acknowl-
edged that having the transit
exchange at the Community Cen-
tre has potentially contributed
to the amount of mischief that
occurs in and around that area.
But Coun. Andy Adams said
moving the transit system
exchange to the Community Cen-
tre was the right thing to do.
“I believe most parents would
say they feel more safe putting
their child on a bus that ends
up where it does now instead of
at the former bus shelter (Tyee
Plaza) which was not a very nice
place,” he said.The second additional city staff
position is a $84,000 per year dep-
uty clerk, a position mandated by
the city.City Manager Andy Laidlaw
said the position needs to be in
place in order to maintain opera-
tions. Peter Wipper, who took over the
position of city clerk after Bill
Halstead retired last year, said
a few months ago while on holi-
days, he was called in to work to
sign papers that were time sensi-
tive. If the city had had a deputy
clerk at the time, they could have
signed the papers in Wipper’s
place.

Campbell Riverites showed how big their hearts are once again Tuesday morning after four Pacific white-
sided dolphins became trapped in a mud pool.
Volunteers put aside their other obli-gations and trekked through the mud and water to do whatever they could to ensure the dolphins were comfort-able until help arrived.
Oyster River area residents, and oth-ers who came down, should be commended for what they did – whether it be pouring buckets of water over
the stranded dolphins or stroking them to try and keep them calm.
When volunteers heard help for the stranded dol-phins would be hours away they made a tough, but snap decision.
With the tide going out and the dolphins’ lives hang-ing in the balance, the Good Samaritans decided to take matters into their own hands and transport the dolphins themselves.
By 10:15 a.m., the large group of do-gooders had man-aged to successfully move all of the porpoises back out to sea using a large tarp.
Thanks to the quick thinking of area residents and those who were notified of the situation through the Campbell River Mirror’s Facebook page and came down to offer assistance, all four dolphins were returned to the water safely, and seemingly, without injury.
Had volunteers waited for too long, the story may not have had as happy an ending.
Congratulations to all who attended the scene.It’s inspiring and comforting to know there are so
many people in this city who are willing to led a hand when someone, or something, is in need.

Tom FletcherB.C. Views
PUBLISHER: Zena [email protected]

Here are a few items that didn’t make the daily news cycle as B.C. res-idents prepared for the long-awaited summer of 2011 to begin.■ After her meeting with Prime
Minister Stephen Harper in Ottawa last week, Premier Christy Clark delivered a luncheon speech to the Economic Club of Toronto.
Her big talking point for the speech was the rise of the Asia-Pacific region, “the fastest-growing middle class in the history of humanity.”
The theme ran through her pitch to the federal government for a share of Ottawa’s largest-ever shipbuilding contract, and her recent meeting with western premiers in Yellowknife.
No word on how Clark’s enthusiasm for the west as Canada’s economic
engine of the future went over with the Bay Street crowd.■ After the speech, Clark took the
wheel of a Chevy Volt electric car for a spin around Toronto with a GM Canada vice-president riding shot-gun. She pronounced the car “fan-tastic technology.”
This is pertinent as B.C. residents get ready to pay the latest increase in B.C.’s carbon tax. Effective July 1, the tax on a litre of gasoline rises from 4.45 cents to 5.56, with comparable increases to other carbon fuels.
Clark has inherited Gordon Camp-bell’s aggressive climate change-clean energy agenda, and it’s not yet clear what will become of it.
She has committed to the last con-sumer carbon tax increase in 2012
(up to 6.67 cents on a litre of gas), but the fate of the big hydroelectric push remains uncertain.
Those plug-in electric cars need to start selling before Campbell’s gam-ble of developing increasingly costly electricity starts to pay off.
One potential competitor is natural gas-powered vehicles, taking advan-tage of huge new shale gas discover-ies in B.C. and elsewhere.■ Campbell’s pending appointment
as Canada’s high commissioner in the United Kingdom should warm the hearts of conspiracy theorists.
The story broke when Clark was in Ottawa, and when reporters asked for her take on the appointment, her first comment was that he’ll be a big help in negotiating a free trade agreement
with the European Union.Students of Bill Vander Zalm will
know that he sees the harmonizedsales tax and EU trade as an effortto impose world government and setB.C.’s sales tax rate in Europe.
Early in his goofy anti-HST cam-paign, Vander Zalm claimed this wasplan B for world government afterthe conspirators failed to impose aglobal carbon tax.
If the HST is a conspiracy, it’s amighty big one.
Finance Minister Kevin Falconnever tires of reminding people that140 countries already have value-added taxes, including China andthose other Asia-Pacific businesstigers that are dominating the worldeconomy.
Re: Tax my car, not my income (B.C. Views, June15).
Tom Fletcher can nitpick all he wants about theproper identification of the government’s July 2010 taxincrease on private vehicle sales.
As an alternative, maybe his beloved governmentshould have considered rescinding the dealer tax onused vehicles. Most people buy used cars and otherused products because they can’t afford to buy new. Inreality, this is just another tax that hits those who canleast afford it.
After slogging through all the statistics, graphs, andpie-charts concerning the HST, one thing struck me:The province raises 14 per cent of its money from theHST, 14 per cent from personal income taxes, and onlyfour per cent from corporate income taxes. The prov-ince spends 42 per cent of its revenues on health and27 per cent on education.
Corporations benefit greatly from an educated andhealthy workforce. It reduces their training costs, andunlike companies in the U.S. they don’t have to shellout huge amounts for heath insurance.
That in itself provides a big cost advantage for B.C.companies. So why aren’t these companies paying theirfair share?
Over the years our government has increasinglycatered to the values of Wall Street and Madison Ave-nue. You know – those buzzing little stick people on TV.Now, if only it could rediscover Main Street.

I was truly unprepared to be making decisions regarding my late husband at 26 years of age, and if not for your unlimited kindness, understanding, and gentle nature I don’t know what I would have done. I can’t thank you enough for easing me through such an unpleasant situation while lessening the stress at the same time. Your concern has been truly touching and your generosity even more so. Danny, you’ve made a huge impression on me, I am forever indebted to you, and I will never forget how helpful you’ve been. I am so, so thankful to have met such a wonderful human being. – Forever grateful, Lindsay Malbon
HERO – Jake Lawrence was and always will be my hero. It was May 14 when Jake was in Grande Prairie, AB, visiting his sister, a group of friends gathered at a large
local motocross track for a day of fun. That came to an abrupt end when my son, Clay misjudged a jump and fell (feet first) 25-30’ straight down. The boys jumped in the truck racing to Clay’s side, where Jake took off running and beat the truck there. Jake immediately took charge, telling Clay everything would be okay. Visually sighting three different bones protruding from Clay’s body, again Jake was the one pouring water over Clay’s wrist and forearm trying to clean it, as they waited for the ambulance (the longest 45 minutes they’ve ever experienced). Jake was the one to call 911 and got my phone numbers (home and cell here in B.C.) to make that dreaded call to his buddy’s mom. Jake called me several time with updates on Clay, throughout the evening. That is the kind of man Jake Lawrence was, always making that difference in his short 20 years. We were the fortunate family, that Clay did not have any fatal injuries. He did have a fractured femur, both tibia, two broken ankles, dislocated ankle a broken thumb and wrist. I thank God, my son’s injuries will
heal. RIP Jake. Always loved never forgotten. – Leanne Lacusta
ZERO – The administration at Timberline Secondary School who in their infinite wisdom cut the concert band program to before school time. You are depriving many students (mainly my child who takes the bus to school) from participating. I would love to send my child to a private teacher however Campbell River doesn’t have a private trumpet teacher. Thanks for providing your students with less opportunities to succeed in life. – An outraged parent.
HEROES – Roses and thanks to the volunteers of Relay for Life 2011. From setting up to tearing down, you never
stopped. Coffee flowed, kids bounced, faces were painted and clowns entertained. Late into the night you kept teams going with our “fun laps” and kept our teams safe by patrolling the grounds. Your enthusiasm and passion made working with all of you a pleasure. Thank you to the C.R. Volunteer Center for their continued support. See you next year at Relay! – Erin Wilson, Relay for Life 2011, Cordinator
HEROES – Ocean Grove Elementary would like to express their extreme gratitude to The Real Canadian Superstore, Thrifty Foods, Quality Foods and Save on Foods for helping immensely with our Annual Beach Day, that was held on June 24. Without your help, we wouldn’t have been able to feed so many people. It truly was an amazing day, the children had a lot of fun, and we know they all returned to the school full of good food and happy thoughts from our day! Everyone said the burgers were delicious, and the hot dogs were super tasty! A nice treat nearing the end was those super cold freezies that were a delectable treat to
thirsty little palates! And, a super, awesome thank you to all of our volunteers that helped to make this happen. Ann and Vance Brown, Brandy Edwards, Bill & Cusondra McSeveney, Brenda Staub, Nicki Hansom, Stephanie Toner and Mom, Kim Windle, Cindy Taylor, Amanda Doherty, Adam, and many more that offered to help. Without your assistance our beach day wouldn’t have been so successful. So thank you very much for the dedication! In the spirit of giving, all food left over was donated to the Campbell River & District Food Bank, so that many more families would be able to enjoy the treat that we did today! I am one very proud mom and volunteer, and also very happy I chose this great place to live. I am proud to be a Campbell Riverite. – Brandi Stovman
HEROES – Cyriel and his staff at Quality Foods for their help and support for our Ripple Rock Gem & Mineral Club Show that was held at the Timberline on June 11-12. Cyriel went above and beyond to help us with this event. – Thanks, the Ripple Rock Gem & Mineral Club.

Canada Day goes green
This year Canada Day’s going to be green in Campbell River.
In support of Campbell River’s Green City Strategy, the Canada Day Committee is asking everyone to do their
part to make Canada Day an earth-friendly event.
At each of the major event venues there will be composting and recycling bins. Look for these bins after sampling the many great foods available from local and visiting vendors.
Composting will be available for paper plates, napkins and cups and non-meat food scraps. At the recycling stations, there will be drop-off bins for beverage containers, paper products and plastics numbered one to six.
Bring your own
water bottle because you will also be able to refill at the special water stations set up at Robert Ostler and Frank James parks. In an effort to eliminate single-use plastic water bottles for Canada Day, there will also be compostable cups
supplied by Quality Foods at the water refill stations.
“This green initiative demonstrates pride for our City and leading by example to educate our community and our visitors. From the Children’s Festival to the Skateboard
Competition, the Canada Day gathering is a great way to bring recycling and respect for our environment front and centre,” says Carol Chapman, Chair of the Canada Day Committee.
“Being green just makes sense for
all Canadians. We have the resources to be green, so let’s celebrate Canada Day by being green and making a difference,” Chapman adds.
The Canada Day Committee will also be awarding prizes for the greenest food vendors.

Lighting the Way to Exceptional Learning
SUCCESS FOR ALL LEARNERSWe will investigate the most effective and sustainable grade con guration.
Ensuring that Campbell River Grads Have Many Doors Open to ThemFaced with a continual decline at the secondary schools and overcrowding at several elementary schools through 2021 (Timberline Secondary is forecast to lose 100 students this fall, alone), the school district set out in the fall of 2010 to investigate the most effective and sustainable grade con gurations.
In September 2012, the grade con guration in district schools will change to K-5 elementary schools, grade 6-8 middle schools and grade 9-12 secondary schools. The decision was made after ve months of consultations with the community and district staff.
In 2007, Carihi Secondary had a population of 777 students and Timberline, 816. By 2021, Carihi is projected to be down to approximately 531 and Timberline, 566. Both schools have a capacity of between 825 and 850 students.
While many parents dream of smaller schools, an enrolment decrease to this extent at the secondary level could actually hurt students more than help. At secondary school, students are preparing for the world beyond. Whether they are considering post-secondary education or entering the workforce, courses are elective-based and much more career-oriented. With signi cantly less students, schools are challenged to provide specialty courses; courses, which students from larger centres and schools have access to and which post-secondary programs and some entry-level employers are demanding.
The grade 6 to 8 middle school model met the two primary goals of the con guration review – it creates enough student population for viable secondary schools and creates enough room to meet the needs of a growing population in the elementary schools.
While shuf ing one grade at each level of school, may not seem like that signi cant of a change, there is a lot that needs to happen to ensure that students and their families have as smooth a transition as possible and that they continue to receive the quality education that they’ve come to expect.
A school con guration committee, comprised of kindergarten to grade 12 administrators, has begun to tackle implementation planning. They are looking at issues already identi ed through the public process and over the next year, the committee will be engaging all district stakeholders through conversations with parents, students and teachers.
As part of the implementation process, the school district will also be working with North Island College to create more distinction between Timberline Secondary School and the college, while maintaining the learning opportunities that the shared campus affords.
ENHANCED COMMUNITY CONNECTIONSWe will continue to build upon our positive relationships with the early years and adult literacy communities identi ed in our expanded mandate.
Creating a “Made in Campbell River” Approach to Full-Day KindergartenThis past fall, the Ministry of Education began phasing in universal full-day kindergarten for ve-year-olds, a signi cant investment in early childhood learning. And there’s talk, by the Ministry, of expanding the program to include four-year-olds, and possibly three-year-olds, in future years.
Full-day kindergarten was available for up to half of B.C.’s eligible students in September. By September 2011, full-day kindergarten will be available across the province.
In the Campbell River School District, our Board of Education opted to wait until September 2011 to offer full-day kindergarten so that it would be available to all kindergarten students, as opposed to only some.
When full-day kindergarten starts next September in Campbell River, it will have been in uenced and shaped by our community – our teachers, early childhood educators, daycare
providers, and Aboriginal leaders.
The Board’s decision to wait until next September has given us a chance to learn from other districts as they implement their own programs. The added time has also allowed the district to collaborate with our early learning community and develop a vision of what full-day kindergarten will look like in our community.
A steering committee, comprised of district staff, principals, kindergarten and primary teachers, daycare providers, Success by 6, a school trustee, early childhood educators, and an Aboriginal Education Advisory Council member, is working to shape how full-day kindergarten is rolled out in the Campbell River School District and how to help our youngest students and their families transition into school at an earlier age.
Some parents are concerned that the extended hours will be too tiring for their kids. Others wonder whether
children are being thrust into academics too early or whether schools are encroaching on a family domain.
When full-day kindergarten comes into effect in September, there won’t be a half-day option, but for parents that are fearful that full-day kindergarten is going to rush academics at an earlier age, the kindergarten program has been, and will continue to be, a play-based program.
Most learning in the kindergarten program occurs during play
and education experts say that kindergarten’s play-based experiences teach children important social, communication and problem-solving skills and encourage creativity and independence.
The kindergarten environment is carefully designed to be dynamic,
with engaging materials and spaces. Through such play-
based activities as
art, drama, music,
puppetry, and shadow play
our youngest of students are afforded countless
opportunities to play with
materials, explore and discover for
themselves.
While some may question the value of kindergarten, full-day learning is associated with improved reading and numeracy, smoother transitions to grade 1, and increased post-secondary graduation rates.
Anticipating that parents may have additional questions regarding full-day kindergarten, the district has prepared a Q&A document which can be downloaded from www.sd72.bc.ca

Campbell River School District Strategic Plan 2009 - 2012
AN EXPANDED AND PURPOSEFUL ENVIRONMENTAL ETHICWe will empower our students to lead the way by creating more opportunities to hear their thoughts and ideas on environmental stewardship.
Students Lead the Sustainability Charge: Inspiring Along the Way
What happens in our classrooms every day shapes future generations. So what better place to raise environmental awareness, encourage sustainable behaviours, and empower environmental stewards of tomorrow?
All schools now have student run Green Teams which, under the direction of a teacher sponsor, are empowered to introduce environmental programs within their school. From championing lights out campaigns to conducting garbage audits, Green Teams have been busy!
Composting is now regularly occurring across the district and enhanced recycling is available at all Campbell
conference where presenters from across the community co-presented sustainability workshops.
Six Campbell River schools also entered the BC Green Games, submitting projects in Science World’s annual environmental contest. A grade 1/2 class at École Willow Point won $1,500 for their video highlighting the school’s environmental efforts, speci cally the ‘Chicken Cycle’. The Chicken Cycle uses the compost gathered from their school to feed chickens and ducks on a hobby farm.
While there’s so many exciting environmental initiatives throughout the district, perhaps the largest and most signi cant is championed by a former Timberline student and Carihi graduate, Kira DeSorcy. Kira is a young horticulture technician and co-owner of Vibrant Organics, an organic farming business in Campbell River.
River sites. By estimates, we have reduced our waste in volume by 40 percent.
At Southgate Middle School, the Green Team started hot lunch container recycling – rewarding fellow students who dropped off their plastic food containers to be washed and recycled with lollipops.
Timberline’s Green Team hosted the rst ever environmental stewardship
Wanting to help reconnect students with where their food comes from and inspire environmental stewardship, Kira approached Timberline with the idea of an edible courtyard, a school garden that could function as an outdoor classroom that would also provide the school with a source of local organic produce.
The foundation and initial plantings of the garden are complete, with all materials used to-date having been kindly donated by community businesses, and the garden is an idea that’s already taking root elsewhere.
Carihi Secondary has already approached Kira to help with a greenhouse project in the fall and UK celebrity chef Jamie Oliver and his television show Food Revolution. Oliver’s staff have asked for a feature article on the project, which may be published on the Food Revolution website!
SUCCESS FOR ALL LEARNERSWe will strive to ensure that learning is relevant, engaging and exciting – instilling a value of life-long learning.
Education that Keeps Pace With Today and is Flexible Enough for an Unknown TomorrowIt goes without saying that the world we live in today is a very different one than that of last century. So the challenge before educators is how to ignite a passion of learning in a new generation of students – students being raised in a time of unprecedented interconnectivity, information and communication. How do we engage students through lessons that are relevant to their world today and the world of tomorrow?
This is where the concept of 21st century learning comes in. When many people hear the phrase 21st century learning, they think of technology. Laptops and iPads in classrooms, WiFi, smartphones, and the Internet as a means to research and share class projects. Yet while technology is very signi cant, it is one piece of a much larger puzzle.
21st century learning is considering a new vision for our education system – one that recognizes and responds to the uniqueness of each student; is
exible in where, when or how learning takes place; sees parents effectively engaged in their child’s learning; and has teachers being facilitators of learning, supported by technology.
In SD72, there are many examples of how students are being given new ways and opportunities to learn – tailoring the education to their needs.
One special example is the Life Skills Transition House under construction at Timberline Secondary. Through the generosity of Seymour Paci c Developments and the Mailman family, a small scale house is being built which will provide special needs students and young adults an opportunity to learn and practice everyday tasks that so many of us probably take for granted – such as making a bed, washing dishes, and cutting vegetables – necessary skills to live independently.
In a grade three classroom at Ocean Grove Elementary, math lessons became dynamic with the use of a SmartBoard. A projector displays the computer’s video output onto the board, which then acts as a large touch screen. For example, an exercise on odd and even numbers had students come up one at a time, in front of the class, to ‘move’ with their ngers the odd numbered trains on the ‘worksheet’. This same class conducted Internet research on Aboriginal cultures, created PowerPoint
presentations of their ndings, and uploaded the nished presentations to Google Docs for sharing
with classmates and parents at home.
It also encompasses a student with select mutism using an iPod Touch with an application to talk for her in class; a Southgate teacher using digital cameras to teach autistic students how to make eye contact; and secondary students being able to get a head start on earning level 1 trade credentials while completing high school.
These are just a few of the countless and creative ways that our teachers are working to engage and tailor lessons to the needs of our students.

URSULA IRMGARD DRAWERT nee WOLF (Oma)
May 7, 1922 - June 16, 2011May 7, 1922 - June 16, 2011It is with much sadness that we announce the passing of our Mom and Oma.on June 16, 2011 at the age of 89 at the Campbell River hospital. A small bouquet of pink roses fi lling her room with its’ sweet aroma, Mom fi nally found peace.Ursula was born May 7th, 1922 in Zwickau, Germany. She was the fi fth daughter of Felix and Martha Wolf. Ursula is predeceased by her husband Helmut Drawert (December 21, 2006) and her 4 sisters Elsa, Ruth, Irena, Gerta; she was the last of the Wolf pack.As a child Ursula was involved with gymnastics and acrobatics, she was an active child, and was known to have daredevil side to her. Before, during and after the war Ursula worked hard for her family, helping to support the family fi nancially. Ursula met Helmut her future husband at HombergHof, which at the time was her place of work Helmut was smitten and was always struggling to get her attention.

“A Picture of Me” (Without You)
Imagine a world where no music was playing
And think of a church with nobody praying
Have you ever looked up at a sky with no blue?
Then you’ve seen a picture of me without you
Have you walked in a garden where nothing was growing?
Or sat by a river where nothing was fl owing
If you’ve seen a red rose unkissed by the dew
Then you’ve seen a picture of me without you
Can you picture heaven with no angles singing?
Or a quiet Sunday morning with no church bells ringing
If you’ve watched as a heart of a child breaks in two
Then you’ve seen a picture of me without you
Good Night Sweet Mama
“You are missed beyond words”
Brenda & Bill would like to Congratulate their son,
Frank up receiving his Bachelor of Education at

The Saratoga Ven-tures Junior Ravens had a rough end to their season last week-end.
On Saturday the team made its last road trip of the season to Saanich to take on the Tigers.
The Victoria-based team gained some Jr. A Shamrock cuts to strengthen its bench and defeat the Ravens.
With a loss on the road on Saturday the Jr. Ravens came out on fire against the Pen-ninsula Warriors at home on Sunday. In front of a large crowd at Rod Brind’ Amour Arena, Raven Adam Donald scored the first goal of the game on a pass from Tyson Fair less than two minutes into the first.
The Warriors came back with one of their own at 18:05 but only 30 seconds later the Ravens’ Hayden Smith came out with a marker to re-gain the lead for the Ravens off a pass from Eddy Law-son.
The boys in blue didn’t stop there when at 14:26 Arran Mar-low got a nice pass from Lawson and put it in the meshing for the Ravens’ third. Law-son scored the Ravens’ fourth goal unassisted before Penninsula scored three quick goals to tie the game at 3-3. But Lawson got his second in a row to give the Ravens a 5-4 lead on the third place Warriors at the end of the first.
The Jr Ravens struggled to find the net for most of the second until the last minute of play when Smith scored for the Ravens. Penninsula, however, notched two of their own in the sec-ond leaving the end of the period in a 6-6 tie.
The Ravens played a lot of defence in the third as they ran into some penalty trouble and played short-handed. Penninsula still scored four unan-sw e r e d g o a l s i n the period, to make it a total of seven power
play goals through the game to beat the Ravens in their final game.
Ravens head coach Reg Elgie noted the team has “grown a lot from last year and has developed as a team. We’re going and I feel that we will start next year at a pre-season level higher than I’ve ever had in Campbell River before.”
Huge effort to all the Jr Ravens for working hard on both offense and defence and to net-minder Errol Adams for standing up tall between the pipes.
The Ravens would like to wish veterans Connor McLeod and Chris Vaux all the best in their future endeav-ors as they leave the Ravens bench after many years of minor and junior lacrosse in Campbell River, as well as a speedy recovery to netminder Logan Down and offensive player Brayden Howes who were both out this weekend due to inju-ries.
Ravens wrap up season on wrong side

The Jr. B Ravens were in tough against the Peninsula Warriors, who capitalized on the Ravens’ undisci-plined play en route to victory.

How often have we heard the phrase, “Oh, it’s just a sparrow,” when out on a bird-watching foray?
As a species, the sparrow doesn’t get much respect. In truth, they are runts, small in stat-ure (ranging in size from 11 cm (4.5 in.) to 19 cm (7.5 in.), with unre-markable brown and gray plumage.
One bird book describes them as “a generally dull-looking
lot,” while other guides just dismiss them as LBBs (little brown birds). Thankfully, however, these little towhee
relatives more than make up for their drab appearance with their beautiful songs,
and these great little singers bring much joy whenever they’re about.
Within the spar-row family, the crowned sparrows are arguably the most beautiful, with smart head stripes that make them look “well-coiffed”. The White-crowned sports a white and black striped crown, while the Golden-crowned bears a yellow stripe with broad black band. Identification of
these two sparrows is shockingly simple.
Another gorgeous sparrow is the aptly-named Fox Sparrow, sooty chocolate above with rusty tail and smart beast streaks shaped like inverted ‘V’s. The species name derives from the ‘foxy’ red coloration of eastern and northern birds.
Let’s not forget the little Song Sparrow with its dark breast spot … almost where its heart might be. On
the West Coast, this is the most common,
year-round sparrow, and they keep busy
raising three or four families each season. This kind of produc-tivity bodes well for continuing melodic enjoyment.
Three other spar-rows found on the West Coast include Lincoln’s, Savannah, and my own personal favourite, the Chip-ping Sparrow, with its splendid rusty-red crown. But what of the (far too common) House Sparrow….an Old World sparrow not closely related to native sparrows. Much to the detri-ment of native spe-cies, this unwelcome immigrant competes aggressively for nest sites and displaces many desirable spe-cies.
One further note that may take some by surprise…the prolific Dark-eyed Junco is a member of the…you guessed it…sparrow family!
Canada’s native sparrows should be treated like royalty, and provided with food, drink, lodging (well, soft nesting bits), and every kind-ness that a bird might desire. Our country’s wild bird populations are taking a nosedive, and there may come a day in the not so distant future when even sparrows will no longer be around.
