The Coldest Night of the Year is not a time to stay home and huddle by the
television, it’s a night to get out and walk to raise money for the home-less.
Organizers of Campbell River’s second annual Coldest Night of the Year walk, being held Saturday, Feb. 21, is setting its sights on raising $30,000 this year. And they’re look-ing for walkers.
“Last year we raised over $33,000,” said Paul Mason, a coor-dinator for Campbell River Family Services (CRFS) and one of the Campbell River walk’s organizers. “Our goal last year was $25,000, so our goal this year is $30,000.”
The Coldest Night of the Year is a fun, family-friendly walking fundraiser that raises money for the hungry, homeless and hurting in 70 communities across Canada.
The 2, 5 and 10 km walk provides participants the opportunity to experience a hint of the challenges faced by those experiencing home-lessness while raising much needed revenue for their favourite local charity.
Since 2011, the Coldest Night of the Year has raised $4.9 million dollars.
All of the funds for this year’s walk in Campbell River will go towards CRFS’ sobering assessment centre and hub which is slated for

The city is being ordered by the province to install surveillance cam-eras at the Campbell River RCMP detachment.
At its meeting Monday night, council agreed to hire Johnson Con-trols, at a cost of $141,451, to install the equipment.
Jason Decksheimer, the city’s asset management supervisor, said the cameras will comply with the prov-ince’s standards.
“The cameras have built-in redun-dancy in order to allow the system to withstand hardware failures and will record to high capacity servers stored on site in order to provide two years of high definition video retention,” Decksheimer said.
The Solicitor General of B.C. has directed all police agencies in the province to install closed cir-cuit video equipment in all areas where prisoners are dealt with and released.
The demand comes out of recom-mendations from a November, 2007 coroner’s inquest into a shooting death in an RCMP detachment in Houston, B.C. two years earlier.
Decksheimer said the video sur-veillance standards come into effect on Jan. 30 and per these standards, closed circuit video systems must “cover the entire scope of all areas

downtown Campbell River on Fir Street. A sobering centre is completely different from a
shelter where clients stay overnight. At a sobering assessment centre, they are assessed, put in to an interim bed until they’re fit to go into the shelter at Evergreen. The facility will be open 24/7, 365 days a year and provide a valuable link between the home-less and community service providers. There will also be a nurse on staff to work with clients.
Over 70 cities in Canada are holding Coldest Night of the Year walks. It’s very simple to register a team, Mason said. Just go to the website (www.cold-estnightoftheyear.org) and look up the Campbell River location (https://coldestnightoftheyear.org/location/campbellriver) and follow the step-by-step instructions.
The walk itself is a fun evening, Mason says. “Last year was great,” he says. “Two-hundred-and-
thirty people walked the downtown core.”The process has begun to sign up walkers for this
year’s event.“We need teams, we need people, we need busi-
nesses,” Mason said. Registration for the walk opens on Feb. 21 at 4
p.m. All walkers must check-in and sign a waiver form before participating.
The walk begins at 5:15 p.m. for all distances. Between 6 and 8 p.m. a warm, light meal will be served to all walkers and volunteers. So, be sure to linger afterwards, share some laughs, hang with some friends and celebrate the walk - at least till you warm up.
Walkers who raise $150 (adults) or $75 (youth aged 10-17) do not have to pay the $25 registration fee.
Campbell River Family Services Society, a non-profit, charitable organization has been providing quality services to individual, children and families living in the Campbell River area since 1977. CRFSS is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors and is staffed by qualified, dedicated individuals at all levels of the organization.
Their programs and services include support, counseling, education, prevention and crisis inter-vention. Campbell River Family Services Society has been accredited by C.A.R.F. (Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities) since November 2004.

that a detained person may be brought within a detachment, record at a sufficient rate of speed to provide seamless coverage of movement, and retain these recordings for a period of no less than two years.”
City staff have determined that the Campbell River RCMP detachment needs 50 cameras in order to be in compliance with the provincial video surveillance standards.
Decksheimer said the cameras
have been included in the city’s 2014-2018 financial plan.
He added that if the city fails to meet the video standards as set out by the province, the city could be on the hook for more than it has bargained for.
“The Municipal Police Unit agreement between the munici-pality and the province requires the municipality to maintain the building to meet the secu-rity standards of the RCMP,” Decksheimer said. “Should the municipality fail to address the
deficiency, the RCMP may make the necessary changes to meet their security standards and the municipality will be responsible for paying 100 per cent of all the costs.
“Failure to meet the provin-cial video surveillance standards may place the city in a position of liability should an incident occur involving a detainee within the Campbell River RCMP detach-ment where video surveillance equipment has been identified for installation.”

BC Hydro will take on another new project in Campbell River.
The announcement was made early this week that the power utility will spend $25 million to increase its supply of electricity to local cus-tomers.
S t e p h e n Wat s o n , spokesperson for BC Hydro, said the Camp-bell River area has been growing and the local BC Hydro distribution grid that serves the area
needs to keep up.“It’s actually become
constraining in a few areas because of recent growth,” Watson said. “BC Hydro is planning to make upgrades to the Campbell River Substa-tion and add more cir-cuits for the community. The substation, located off 7th Avenue, will see a third transformer added to the two already there, with up to four new feed-ers or circuits.”
The Campbell River area is also served by a second substation in Oyster River. The cir-
cuits feed out of the sub-stations and along road-ways to supply electricity to customers, including on Quadra Island. Each distribution pole carries 25,000 volts of power.
Watson said BC Hydro expects to begin work on the 7th Avenue sub-station in early 2016 and have the work complete and the new circuits in service in the fall of 2017.
“Two new circuits will be in place by then with the other two circuits to come later,” Watson said. “The increased capac-
ity and four new circuits will serve the wider Campbell River area by off-loading some of the existing circuits that are near capacity and free things up for future com-munity growth in resi-dential and commercial development. It will help foster economic devel-opment.”
Across the prov-ince, BC Hydro has invested about $6.3 million over the last five years in power line system improvement projects, Watson said. This includes installing
equipment on a circuit that can be operated remotely in the event of a power outage. The equipment attempts to re-energize that section of a circuit which has gone down and restore power quickly if a tree branch has fallen onto the lines, caused the fault, but then fallen off.
“Other projects include electricity load transfers or switching from the various circuits,” Watson said. “About $350,000 has been spent on veg-etation management along the transmission
line system, and about $2 million reinvested into the local transmis-sion system over the last five years.”
Watson said that simi-lar work and investment is planned in the coming years.
“The Campbell River Substation project is just one of a few of the hundreds of BC Hydro capital projects through-out B.C. that, together, make up one of the larg-est expansions of electri-cal infrastructure in the province’s history,” Wat-son said. “In the next 10 years, BC Hydro will invest an average of $1.7 billion a year on the elec-tricity system including upgrades to transmission and distribution systems
and dams and generating stations.”
Campbell River is also the beneficiary of a com-plete upgrade and over-haul to the John Hart Generating Station and in the coming years, will see seismic upgrades to both the John Hart and Strathcona dams. Those projects alone mean BC Hydro will be working in the Campbell River area for the next 20 years.
The announcement of this new substation proj-ect comes on the heels of the completion of BC Hydro’s new Campbell River office at Quinsam Crossing. BC Hydro staff moved from its 40-year-old office building on Evergreen Road to the new building this month.

The Campbell River Hospice Society will see its dream come true later this year.
Thanks to an army of volunteers and some generous donors, the Hospice Society will be building its dream home within the next couple of months.
The plan is to break ground in the spring on the property at 402 Evergreen Road, which was donated by the city to the Hospice Society in September. The prop-erty is situated next door to what will be the new Campbell River Hospital.
The 2,476 square foot house will provide a home-like setting with a kitchen, a library, coun-selling offices, a multi-purpose room, a clinic
and an outdoor court-yard.
The Hospice Society is also hoping to work with Island Health to, in the future, possi-bly provide end-of-life beds. The facility will be
constructed to so that an addition to house end-of-life beds can be accommodated.
The project has been made possible thanks to a band of community members who stepped
up to help after the Hos-pice Society received notice that it would have to relocate from its home in the building next to the curling club.
While Hospice is cur-rently operating out of an
old home on Dogwood Street near the Evergreen Seniors Home, it’s just a temporary fix.
But the society’s long-term vision was made a reality after local law-yer Brian Stamp saw an article published in the Mirror on Oct. 3, 2013 outlining the society’s dream for a Hospice House.
Stamp called upon four business associates – D’Arcy Frankland, Jim Dobinson, George Stuart and Gary Griffin – for help. The group settled on building a brand new, purpose built facility that would provide enough space to accommodate current operations as well as provide expanded service in the future.
The process began with an extensive search for a
suitable site. With the help of then city coun-cillor Andy Adams, the group secured the land donation on Evergreen. The property is valued at $194,011 and fees and charges associated with developing the property are estimated at $35,000 to $45,000.
City counci l a lso agreed to provide grants-in-aid to cover fees and charges associated with the project such as rezoning, development and legal costs.
Funds to build Hos-pice House are being raised through a capi-tal fundraising team made up of the original five organizers, as well as Kent Moeller, Craig Willet, Jens Rolinski, Julie Collis, Brett Giese (construction manager),
Erwin Portmann, Dan Wickham, Jill Hanson (project administrator), Iona Wharton and Dave Ludvigson.
While Hospice House will be looking to expand its operations, the soci-ety will also continue its current service offerings from the house.
Hospice provides com-passionate companion-ship to those who are dying and support to families dealing with the grief of losing a loved one.
Counsellors help ter-minal clients reflect on their lives and capture experiences and memo-ries through scrapbook-ing, writing, audio and visual storytelling.
Hospice House is expected to open its doors this fall.

Hospice’s dream house coming true
Campbell River city council will continue to meet with School Dis-trict 72’s board of educa-tion on a regular basis.
The joint liaison meet-ings between the two parties have been ongo-ing for the past several years and the new coun-
cil and new board will pick up where its succes-sors left off.
The school district is currently organizing the first meeting between the two new sets of elected officials.
At a council meeting on Jan. 12, councillors
voted to submit four top-ics, relevant to both the city and school district, for discussion at the meeting – international students, graffiti, the Carihi Forestry program, and invasive species.
The joint liaison meet-ings are typically one-
hour lunch meetings, held at least three times a year.
They exist to provide an opportunity for dis-cussion and information sharing on matters of importance to both the city and School District 72.
City, school district maintain links

Canada may have invested beyond its means in an oil boom that has come to a crude halt.
Sure, the cheaper pump price has a direct impact for consumers who will have more disposal income. But as a result are we spending this money on imported goods? If so, this may eventually lead to more of our hard earned dollars being shipped off shore in exchange for the perishing and disposable products we allow in.
In the short term, this drop in gas prices may directly be good for the consumer but why have prices for other goods and services not followed suit and also decreased? Or will they decrease and that
will be the beginning of the deflation period for our country? We have already seen the loonie shrink in value. Will the cost of imported con-sumer goods increase as the dollar weakens?
Around 112,000 jobs are linked to the oil industry. With less oil production, less labour is required and this has a negative impact on spending overall.
These mining workers can no longer afford the life-styles they have been living, they stop spending and can no longer service their debt.
The flow on effect continues. Consumers begin to think prices will continue to fall and delay their pur-chases but as we all know the growth of an economy relies upon consumers spending now.
As a result of the government spending more on employment insurance, tax revenues decreases or they could ask for more money from your pocket each week. Not such a big saving now is it?
With cheaper gas prices, will people use more of this fleeting resource?
Will investment into renewable resources be crip-pled and take longer to develop? Will we become more reliant on oil as a result as this price crash?
Sure it is not all doom and gloom having a weaker dollar, we can market our destination to the U.S. who is just down the road but do we have the infrastruc-ture and tourism product to take advantage of our weak loonie now on the volume required to sustain our shrinking disposable incomes?
If saving at the pump is really that appealing to us then why have we not become less dependent on our vehicles?

Our View
We say: There’s a direct impact on our wallets but look long term
Hippy science is easy, and wrongDid you do a “cleanse” to start
the year? A diet or supplements to, you know, “detox” your body?
Please, if you did, I don’t want the details. I’m here to discuss the underlying assumptions of this fad. TV presenter Dr. Oz is a promoter of various schemes, soup diets and the like, but there are many books and con-sumer products being flogged.
“Supplements, tea, home-opathy, coffee enemas, ear candles and foot baths promise you a detoxified body,” writes Ontario pharmacist Scott Gavura, who treats cancer patients with medicine’s most potent drugs.
Frustrated by the pharmacy industry’s willingness to cash in on fake cures for nonexis-tent conditions, Gavura began contributing to ScienceBased-Medicine.org, where you can search “detox” find his take-down of this notion.
He traces the roots of purifi-cation rituals in religious and medical history, such as when patients were bled with leeches.
Actual “detox” is adminis-tered in hospital for those with dangerous levels of drugs, alco-hol or other poisons. Credible physicians abandoned theories of “autointoxication” in the 19th century.
“Today’s version of autointoxication argues that some combination of food additives, salt, meat, fluoride, prescrip-tion drugs, smog, vaccine ingredients, GMOs and perhaps last night’s bottle of wine are causing a buildup of ‘toxins’ in the body,” Gavura writes. “And don’t forget gluten. Gluten is the new evil and therefore, is now a toxin.”
Gluten-free products now occupy whole sections of gro-cery stores, not far from the pricey “organic” produce that may or may not be tested for synthetic pesticides.
Living in the Lower Main-land 20 years ago, I noticed people lugging big plastic jugs
to the grocery store to fill with water. Metro Vancouver is a rainforest, with some of the best tap water in the world, so I wondered what they were try-ing to avoid.
Discreet inqui-ries yielded similar answers. Aside from the odd superstition about chlorine or fluoride, they had no idea at all. They didn’t know about the Coquitlam res-ervoir, or ozonation, or what they were buying, which was essentially municipal
water run through a filter. They had been convinced to pay $2 for water in plastic bottles, and this somehow led to the con-clusion that their tap water is only fit for washing clothes and driveways.
Vaccinations? Don’t get me started. In the past year I have had an argument with a regis-tered nurse at a blood donor clinic, annoyed that the health ministry denied her imagined
“right” to infect frail patients with influenza, and with a veteran politician who only recently overcame a vague taboo against putting vaccines in her body.
It’s no wonder people con-stantly fall for enviro-scares like toxins from the Alberta oil sands that are actually concen-trated in cities where all that fuel is burned, or the threat of genetically modified canola oil, or smart meters. The media are frequently part of the problem, lacking scientific literacy and preferring conflict over com-mon sense.
Take Vancouver (please). The mayor rose to fame with a company that sold overpriced imported tropical fruit juice in single-serving plastic bot-tles. Calling it “Happy Planet” convinced a new generation of urban rubes that they’re doing something for the envi-ronment. Plus, there are “no chemicals” in it, to cite the cen-tral myth of hippy science.

ChipmatesCampbell River firefighters thanked their partners at Budget Tree Ser-vices and Upland Excavating for helping out with the Christmas tree chipping fundraiser on Jan. 3 that raised $2,815 for the Burn Fund. Budget provide the chipper and Upland provided the dump truck as well as disposing of the chips. On hand for a presentation were (from left) Steve Wood (Budget Tree Service), Firefighter Kelly Bellefleur, Fire-fighter Lee Pendergast, Mark Stuart (Uplands Excavating), Firefighter Chris Schulte, and Firefighter Stewart Dumont.
An RCMP decision to contract out jail guard services will cost three city employees their jobs.
The Campbell River RCMP detachment has given notice that it will contract out detention guard services currently offered by city employ-ees.
The announcement that the Corps of Com-missionaires will be contracted to provide this service will mean layoffs for three full-time employees, and also affect six auxiliary employees, working
as police guards. The change would take effect in approximately 90 days.
“Our main concern is for the wellbeing and employment of these employees,” says Ron Bowles, the City of Campbell River’s general manager of corporate services. “We will begin working with the CUPE Local 401 immediately to review potential opportunities for these employees to move into other City job vacancies.”
The contract for this service permits the
RCMP to opt for another service provider, which has been done in other BC communities, includ-ing the Comox Valley.
“This is entirely a deci-sion of the RCMP, based on their assessment of the service required for the safe operation of the high-risk cellblock area,” Bowles says, adding: “The RCMP anticipates this change in service providers will offer a slight savings to City of Campbell River taxpay-ers.”
The City of Campbell River pays approximately
$8.5 million for polic-ing services.
The Campbell River RCMP det achment responds to an approxi-mate average of 13,000 calls for service each year, and houses approx-imately 1,700 prisoners per year.
The detachment has 52 members, 43 funded by the City of Campbell River and nine funded by the Province of Brit-ish Columbia.
The City also provides administrative support staff, 24 permanent and 12 auxiliary.

KRISTEN DOUGLASCAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Campbell River is drawing praise from the Canadian government for its part in enhancing the salmon industry but still awaits a verdict on the fate of a key fisheries advisor position.
Gail Shea, minister of fisheries and oceans, praised the city in a let-ter to council.
“I appreciate the excel-lent work that Camp-bell River stewardship groups have successfully undertaken over the years and the high lev-els of commitment and dedication to the salmon resource demonstrated by these organizations,” Shea wrote. “I also appreciate the support to salmon stewardship and local aquatic habitat conservation exhibited by the City of Campbell River.”
Shea’s comments come in response to a letter written in November by city council to Shea which asked the minister to keep a Fisheries and Oceans Canada advisory position in the Campbell River area.
But while commend-ing the city on its stew-ardship programs, Shea did not make any guar-antees with respect to the community advisor role.
“I agree that the sup-port of a community advisor is integral to the success of steward-ship groups such as your own,” Shea said. “Accordingly, I am pleased to inform you that DFO SEP (Salmonid Enhancement Program) officials are currently carrying out a process to
form a pool of qualified candidates that can be used to staff community advisor positions in Brit-ish Columbia.”
But Shea did not say for certain where in B.C. those positions would be located, only that candi-dates have completed initial screening and written exams and have moved into the inter-view process.
Campbell River has had the benefit of a com-munity advisor, with four acting and intermit-tent advisors since 2012.
There are four com-munity advisor posi-tions across B.C. that are either currently vacant or are expected to be vacant due to retiring staff in the near future.
The community advi-sors play an important role in supporting both municipalities and local stewardship programs in habitat restoration and protection projects.
In Campbell River, the community advi-sor works closely with Greenways Land Trust and the various stream stewardship groups and is the main point of con-tact between Fisheries and Oceans Canada and the local environment groups.
Shea said Campbell River’s efforts are in line with Fisheries and Oceans’ mandate.
“DFO (Department of Fisheries and Oceans) also places a high value on the work of salmon stewardship groups in British Columbia, which it supports through the Salmonid Enhancement Program’s Commu-nity Involvement and Resource Restoration programs.”

The major low pressure system that moved across east Vancouver Island over the weekend brought with it vast amounts of snow to Mount Washington Alpine Resort.
The mountain has received over 60cm since Jan 12.“This latest snowfall is just what we needed,” says
Don Sharpe, Director of Business Operations and Marketing. “Our snow base is now well above the 140cm mark. We have opened up the whole front-side as well as additional nordic terrain.”
In classic form, the latest weather system delivered some great base-building snow with the help of heavy winds from the southeast.
“Southeast winds always mean snow, lots of snow,” says Sharpe. “We had faith that regular winter weather patterns would return to our part of the world. Look-ing back to similar weather patterns over our 30-year history, we’ve received upwards of three to four metres of snow in February and March respectively. So that means there is much more to come.”
While you’re up here enjoying the new snow, you can also enjoy some great winter events. Mount Washington is hosting Ski for MS on Jan. 25 and the BC Snowboard Slopestyle on Jan. 31/Feb. 1.
For more information, surf to www.mountwash-ington.ca for additional information including a live snow cam.
Snow blasts Mount Washington
Hooray! After a slow start to the season, things are picking up on Mount Washington as the resort is being hit with weather patterns that traditionally bring lots of snow.
Nearly three-quarters of Canadians living with Alzheimer’s disease are women.
It’s an eye-opening statistic, but it’s not news to the many Campbell River families whose lives have been altered by the dementia journey.
“Women represent 72 per cent of Canadians liv-ing with Alzheimer’s disease,” says Jane Hope, the Alzheimer Society of B.C.’s Support & Education Coordinator for Campbell River and the North & Central Island.
“They could be your mothers, wives, sisters, grand-mothers or friends.”
That’s why the Society’s annual Alzheimer Aware-ness Month campaign in January has adopted the theme The 72%. It aims to inform women in their 40s and older about the warning signs of Alzheimer’s dis-ease and other dementias, brain health and how the programs and services of the non-profit Alzheimer Society of B.C. can help. More women than men are living with Alzheimer’s disease because they live lon-ger and age is a significant risk factor, Hope says. The risk of dementia doubles every five years after age 65.
Women also account for 70 per cent of family care-givers.
“The disease takes a tremendous toll on these women who eventually provide round-the-clock care. The burden is especially high for women rais-ing families and holding down jobs.”
Though women are disproportionately affected, “Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias affect everyone,” Hope points out.
More than 70,000 people in B.C. face dementia.The 72% Awareness Month campaign kicks off in
January but local families living with dementia can receive assistance year-round from Hope. She can be contacted toll-free toll-free at 1-800-462-2833 or [email protected].

Since the days when coal was first discovered on Van-couver Island, copper was first traded along the coast and the first flashes of gold were seen in the Fraser River, the Province of British Columbia has been built by many generations through successful mineral ex-ploration and development. The spectacular geological treasures that characterize every region in BC are also the driving force of much of its development. These natural riches have drawn the finest in the world to our province and its mineral exploration and development industry. In fact, British Columbia has the largest concentra-tion of exploration companies and geoscientists in the world, and in 2013 companies based in BC raised $2.6 billion for exploration both at home and around the world. There are also more than 2,000 exploration and development service and supply companies, includ-ing legal and accounting firms, that call this province home. And perhaps not widely known, but BC is home to global leaders in academic research in exploration technology and geoscience and it is renowned as the assaying capital of the world. This extensive business cluster means that the industry is at the forward edge of exploration practices allowing for smarter, more efficient, cost-effective and environmentally conscien-tious projects.Gavin C. Dirom, President and CEO of the Association for Mineral Exploration British Columbia (AME BC), is from a proud pioneering family of explorers, engineers, scientists and miners. Born in Smithers, with degrees from the University of Victoria and Royal Roads Uni-versity, Gavin is the third generation to have forged a career in the BC industry. And yet he believes that the full potential of this province is still to be realized. “This stunningly impressive province of ours is vast and under explored. It can reward those mineral explorers and developers who have the perseverance and the skill to identify and develop opportunities.” Gavin is also a strong and vocal advocate for a safe, economically strong and environmentally sound min-eral exploration and development sector. “The global expertise present in BC means that the industry is
open to new ideas and approaches and therefore constantly evolving and improving its practices based on science, eco-nomics and experience.”A very good example of this approach to mineral exploration and develop-ment can be found at Amarc Resources. This BC-based company is currently focused on ad-
vancing their IKE project, a major copper discovery located in the heartland of BC’s copper mining district, and doing so in a way that lives up to the vision AME BC has of the future of this industry. Dr. Diane Nicol-son, President of Amarc Resources, is leading the company’s focus on achieving socially, environment-ally and economically responsible mineral exploration programs. Diane has lived and worked all over the globe, from Latin America to Central Asia, and has called BC home since 2007. “Amarc is just one example of the resiliency of our remarkable industry. There may be challenges in our industry, but thanks to the high cali-bre of people and mineral development potential, BC remains one of the best places on Earth to explore for the metals, like copper and zinc, that the world needs.”AME BC members, like Diane Nicolson and Amarc Resources, have a proven track record of finding new mineral deposits here in BC, and providing our econ-omy with the resources it needs to continue to grow. In fact, mineral exploration and development has been woven in to the fabric of our economy since the first discoveries and use of coal, copper and gold, by both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people. Together, we proudly built this province on rock and coal. And with the continued involvement and support of many com-munities and First Na-tions, BC will continue to top the list of places to responsibly explore for the mineral riches that the world needs. In doing so, every family in BC will benefit and prosper for multiple generations.

PROCESSMany islanders already
concur : “anything” can happen under the Quadra moon.
Upcoming perfor-mances of “The Smell of Money,” written by islander Allen Perkins, will doubtless confirm any lunar suspicions.
Imagine a send-up of “The Sound of Music” with parodies of many of the songs, plus a couple bonus songs from “Hair” thrown in, “and a strong
streak of Quadra quirki-ness,” adds Perkins.
The Smell of Money features wel l - loved island actors Julie Doug-las, John Nursall, Guy Holmes, Karen Holmes, Ford Cannon and more. It’s directed by Chris Thompson, with musi-cal direction by Linda Cannon, produced in cooperation with The-atre Quadra.
Is Quadra worth plun-dering? Will a U.S. inva-
sion bring “democracy”? Can the moon effect change?
See The Smell of Money and discover the answers: Jan. 30 and 31 at the Heriot Bay Inn. $34.95 includes a two course dinner in Herons at the Heriot Bay Inn; show only $20/per per-son.
Advance ticket pur-chasing strongly recom-mended, call 250-285-3322 to reserve.
Strange things done under the Quadra moon
The Smell of Money is a parody of the Sound of Music with a few bonus songs thrown in.

Ocean Pacific Marine Store and Boatyard has been awarded a contract to build two Submarine Fenders for the Department of National Defence (DND).
In 2012, Ocean Pacific built a similar submarine fendering ves-sel for DND.
The contract is to build two vessels which will be towed to
the Esquimalt Naval Base. The design of the fender vessel is unique. Four deep fender pan-els or keels extend deep into the water to provide a surface against which the Victoria Class Subma-rines will rest.
Several local Campbell River suppliers and contractors will be contributing to the project.
Ocean Pacific has a previous history working with DND on contract projects.
Located in Campbell River, Ocean Pacific Marine is the larg-est boatyard on North Vancouver Island, employing a total of 30 employees in the Marine Store and the Boatyard and has been operating since 1985.

Kristen DouglasCAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Imagine a float plane coming up out of the water to greet you as you drive into the northern end of the city.
That’s a scene the Campbellton Neigh-bourhood Association has been dreaming about for years, and could soon become reality if the city embraces the idea.
Brian Shaw, co-chair of the Campbellton group, told city coun-cil at its Monday night meeting that association members have sourced parts of a Beaver float plane (including an old fuselage being stored in Campbell River) and are eager to get moving on a unique and eye-catching entrance sign.
“We have it all in place, we have it ready to go,” Shaw said. “We do need a steering committee around that, and if every-body jumps on board we can have something that people coming to Camp-bell River will remember for the rest of their lives.”
If all goes according to plan, the float plane will sit on a concrete pad and will appear as if it’s tak-ing off out of the water. But rather than com-ing off the water at Tyee Spit, where float planes
are most frequently seen, the Beaver model would be situated just in front of the spring-fed pond at 14th Avenue and the Inland Island Highway.
Because of the loca-tion, visitors coming into Campbell River would see the float plane rep-lica as they are driving into the city.
Shaw said the Camp-bellton Neighbourhood Association has plans to include an entrance off of 14th Avenue with parking for 20 or more vehicles, benches, path-ways, and possibly a small tourism kiosk within the triangular-shaped green space.
“It would be a place where people can stop and have a picture of themselves taken with that airplane,” said Shaw who described it as a piece of Campbell River that people could take home with them. “It will be an exceptional feature. We have the air-plane, we just need to get this steering committee to get it down.”
The C ampb el l ton Neighbourhood Associ-ation is asking council to consider forming a steer-ing committee made up of city staff, a member of council, a member of the Campbellton Neigh-bourhood Association, a
B.C. Ministry of High-ways representative, a member of the Seaplane Aviation Industry of Campbell River, and of the tourism industry.
Shaw said the Neigh-bourhood Association met with Ministry of Highways administra-tion in Courtenay and provided them with a site plan and a series of pho-tos. Shaw that while staff were “intrigued with the idea” it was made clear that the lead in such a project would have to come from the City of Campbell River and not the Campbellton Neigh-bourhood Association.
City council consid-ered Shaw’s presentation and voted to defer any decisions surrounding the entrance sign to its 2015 budget discussions, which are coming up next month.
Shaw said the Neigh-bourhood Association has estimated that the project could cost up to $125,000 but that fig-ure does not include a paved parking area off 14th Avenue. Shaw said the Neighbourhood Association, however, is reasonably confident that a good portion of the work could be car-ried out by volunteers in order to save thousands of dollars.

KRISTEN DOUGLAS/THE MIRROR
All stretched outThe Blue Thunder Contracting Peewee B Tyees goaltender Jared McAneeley spreads the pads as the Saanich player comes barreling in with the puck during a rep hockey action Sunday at Rod Brind’Amour Arena. The Tyees lost to Saanich 6-3 in the final league game of the season. The Tyees finished the season tied with Saanich for first place.
The Campbell River Storm continue to hold down top spot in the overall Vancouver Junior Hockey League standings after a hectic weekend that featured three games in three nights.
Campbell River is cur-rently three points ahead of Victoria; however the Cougars have two games in hand.
The teams will likely battle down to the wire, setting up a potential showdown when they meet for the final time this season, Friday, Feb. 13 at Rod Brind’Amour
Arena.The Storm kicked off
their busy weekend by thumping the Cougars 5-1 Thursday night in Victoria. Josiah Friesen, playing only his second game since returning from a broken wrist, opened the scoring with a key short-handed goal.
“That was exciting,” said the veteran forward. “I just wanted to stir something up, get at least a chance, and I managed to beat their defenceman to the puck, made a move out of the corner, and went hard to the net.”
Dane Feeney tallied twice against his former team, while Gage Col-pron and Will McNa-mara contributed sin-gles. The Storm led 2-0 after the first period and 4-0 after two, while out-shooting the Cougars by a 35-17 margin.
Newly acquired goal-tender Riley Welyk, fill-ing in for injured Jesse Michel, was solid in his Campbell River debut.
“With Michel’s injury I knew there was a pos-sibility of me starting,” said 17-year-old Welyk, who came over from the
Westshore Wolves at the trade deadline. “So I was preparing for it leading up to the game and was confident going in there.”
Storm head coach Lee Stone felt his squad played a strong, smart game, the kind needed to win on the road.
“That was a great game for us, from top to bot-tom,” he said. “We played disciplined, fast hockey. It was arguably our best effort of the season.”
The Storm returned home Saturday night and blew out the last place Oceanside Gener-
als 14-2. Colpron led the way with seven points, Connor Logan had six, and rookie Tyler Welsh posted five. Even the defencemen got in on the act as Trent Johnson scored twice, and Ryan Grills snapped home his first of the season.
Midget Tyees goalten-der Nic Kirchner took over for Welyk in the third period and stopped five of six shots. It was his first taste of junior hockey.
“I wasn’t nervous, I knew I had a great group of guys in front of me,”
said the 17-year-old. “The skating and pass-ing is faster (than midget hockey) but I felt confi-dent. That was definitely the biggest crowd I’ve ever played in front of.”
Unfortunately, the Storm failed to carry the momentum with them to Nanaimo Saturday night and lost 7-4. The Buccaneers jumped out to a 4-0 second period lead and managed to hold on despite a furi-ous Storm comeback. Two goals by Feeney, along with singles from Logan and defenceman
Trevor Bottomley cut the advantage to 5-4 but that was as close as the Storm would get. There was no rest for Stone, his coaching staff, or five of his players as they par-ticipated in the VIJHL All-Star Game Sunday afternoon in the Comox Valley. The Storm was represented by defence-men Jordan Rauser and Nathan Browne, and forwards Dane Feeney, Michael Olson, and Brendan Enns. The North defeated the South 6-4, with Feeney notch-ing the final goal.
Carihi celebratesits sports history
Campbell River Storm still in first place
Carihi is looking for-ward to celebrating its 50th anniversary this year.
The Physical Educa-tion department is tak-ing this opportunity to celebrate the many achievements of past and present sports teams. There will be a number of honour boards that will take pride of place in the gym as of the next month. In addition there will be a Welcome to Carihi sign as a focal point in the gym.
The f irst honour board will highlight all the Island Champion-ships the school has won in the over the five decades. The sec-ond honour board will show all the Provincial Championship appear-ances. The third board
will provide the oppor-tunity to recognize any individuals who repre-sented Carihi in a sport and have gone on to achieve National recog-nition in sports beyond their years at Carihi.
Staff at Carihi have done its best to confirm the honour boards will be correct but are seek-ing help from Alumni staff and students who might be able to add further information to the various boards.
The school is still seeking names to com-plete the School Male and Female Athletes of the year for the years 1966,70,75,76,78 and 79.
Anyone who can add information should contact Carihi Athletic Director John Jepson at [email protected]
The Riptide U14 Girls soccer team faced Saa-nich/Prospect on home turf Saturday in its tenth game of the Vancouver Island Premier League (VIPL) season.
Being the first league game in 2015, Riptide wanted a strong start as they move closer to the VIPL A-Cup Play downs which begin next month.
The challenge? Riptide U14 girls had
registered losses against Saanich in both of their previous match ups to date.
To win against this first place team would be a great confidence booster.
After the Christmas break, Riptide resumed their rigorous training schedule, both indoors and out.
So they felt physically and technically ready for the match up.
It was the mental game that would be
most tested and, with such tough competition, they knew that each and every team member would have to deliver.
Litt le did Riptide know that the test would begin two minutes into the game after Saanich scored a quick goal and took an early lead.
Down by one, Riptide regrouped and settled in to what would be an exciting and full-on commitment game.
After about twenty minutes of balanced play, Riptide tied it up. Fré-dérica Blouin-Comeau made a powerful shot on net which was stopped by the Saanich keeper.
Capitalizing on the rebound opportunity, Ciara Halvorson charged in to beat the keeper and score Riptide’s first goal of 2015.
Despite looking like it would be a tie going into half, Saanich scored
a late goal to regain the lead and Riptide would have to fight back again.
Well into the second half, it was a penalty kick, after Riptide’s Sara McLennan was taken down on a run in front of the Saanich net, which turned the tides.
With a picture per-fect kick to the bottom right of the net, Riptide’s Sophie L scored, creating another tie game.
Then, with only a cou-ple minutes left in the game, Kaitlyn Dreger passed to a determined Blouin-Comeau at left midfield.
With a long run and multiple Saanich play-ers in her way, Blouin-Comeau created enough space to deliver a solid left-footer that arched beyond the Saanich keeper’s reach.
The team was thrilled but it wasn’t over yet. Saanich came back with a long shot directly on net which was stopped by Riptide’s keeper, Nicolette Vinnedge, who held firm.
With that, Riptide jubilantly earned their first win against the first-place Saanich team. Final score was 3-2.
“This was an impor-tant victory for our girls,” said the coach-ing trio of Jim Stewart, Lisa Wigard, and Matt Laver. “The Fusion was the only team we hadn’t beaten all season.”
Next up, Riptide faces another tough team in an away game against the Nanaimo Storm on Saturday.

In loving memory of Roy (Robert) Ralston, who is now re-unit-ed with his father (Bobby), mother (Margaret) and brother (Gordon) Ralston. He leaves behind his loving wife of 25 years, Linda, his son Ian, brother Barry (Carmen) nephews Toban and Cale, as well as aunts, uncles and cousins in Scotland and Australia, and many friends throughout B.C.

At 17, Roy had had earned his pilot’s license through the Air Cadets. As a young man, he worked as a diver for the B.C. Research Institute. He went on to studies at UBC and SFU in physics and chemistry. Roy retained his lifelong love for these sciences and later took up astronomy as a hobby.
An active community member, Roy served in local gov-ernment as Councilor with the Village of Tahsis, as a Shop Steward with the IWA, and volunteer for his favourite political party. After a career in the forest industry, Roy completed a Certificate in Conflict Resolution from the Justice Institute of B.C., and subsequently worked as a mediator.
An avid reader and skilled writer, Roy penned several articles and delighted his fellows with many stories. Roy’s sharp wit and sense of humour made every conversation with him interesting and endeared him to people. He was so well-loved and will be deeply missed.

It is with great sadness that I announce the passing of Sharon after a lengthy battle with cancer. Sharon was born in Duncan, BC. She was raised in Lake Cowichan and came to Campbell River in 1962. Sharon met Mike in 1965 and they were married on August 1, 1970. Together they raised two boys: Dwaine and Eric. Sharon adored her grandchildren Atley, Brody, and Rikkina and was very close to her cousins Judy and Linda. For 25 years, Sharon worked for PRT, and then started her own landscaping and painting business. Later, she and Mark Sullivan became partners and together they operated Sharon and Mark’s Enterprises. Sharon loved to work! She was an active businesswoman in the community and she was a long-time member of the BNI Discovery Chapter as well as the Campbell River Women’s Networking Group. It was there she met many friends and she was loved, admired and respected by so many. I would like to thank all the doctors and nurses at the Victoria, Richmond and Campbell River hospitals. I would like to send a special thank you to Dr. Robert Ramsey for all of his help and all the homecare nurses Deb, Barb, and Tracy.

The city will be mak-ing a donation to the Town of Port McNeill to help recognize one of the longest serving mayors in Canadian history.
Council, at its Mon-day meeting, voted to contribute $500 towards a community clock which will serve as an ongoing tribute to former mayor Gerry Furney.
Coun. Charlie Corn-field served with Fur-ney on the Island C oast a l Economic Trust board and said it was appropriate that the city honour a man who contributed a large portion of his life to local government.
Mayor Andy Adams said other Island com-munities have also con-tributed towards the clock, with donations in the hundreds of dol-lars.
A letter from the Town of Port McNeill reads that the clock will represent “‘time well spent’” helping to build the Town of Port McNeill.”
Furney, who spent 46 years in public office, and 39 of those as mayor, arrived in Port McNeill in 1956 as an Irish immigrant.
He was elected to Port McNeill’s first council in 1966, and served as councillor for seven
years before becoming mayor.
Since then, he’s lost only one election.
After his first term
as mayor, Furney lost his bid for re-election by just one vote in the early 1970s.
But three years later,
he got himself back into the mayor’s chair and held onto the job until this past November, when Furney elected
to retire from political office.
The Town of Port McNeill will be hon-ouring Furney next
month at a community celebration to recog-nize his lifetime con-tribution to the com-munity.
The event takes place Saturday, Feb. 7 from 1 to 4 p.m. at North I s l a n d S e c o n d a r y School in Port McNeill.
