Chances casino workers are going back to work today.

The Playtime Community Gam-ing Campbell River lockout has been lifted after approval of a collective agreement, ratified by the employees represented by United Steelworkers (USW), Local 1-1937.

The agreement, which has sig-nificant improvements in wages and working conditions, was rati-fied Jan. 20 with 83 per cent of the membership voting in favour of the proposed agreement.

Rick Wangler, 1st Vice-President of USW, Local 1-1937 says, “It was a long process that started with the crew joining the union last January.”

He goes on to say, “Although not everything the crew wanted was achieved, it is an agreement that has substantial improvements and for a first agreement is a pretty good one.”

Improvements include wages, ben-efits, working conditions, seniority, and language on tips to name a few. The contract calls for a 7.25 per cent

It all starts at the river.That’s the message the Camp-

bellton Neighbourhood Associa-tion is trying to drive home.

But the potential of the river – a

jewel in the heart of Campbell-ton – is being choked out and overgrown with weeds, brush and other foliage.

Brian Shaw, co-chair of the Campbellton Neighbourhood Association, told council at its Monday night meeting that the

group would like to see better access to the Campbell River which could, in turn, prove to be an economic driver for the north-ern end of the city.

“It becomes the first step, you start at the river, it brings tour-ism,” Shaw said. “That brings

more people in, that makes it more attractive to business (and) to young families moving into the area looking for a good place to live.”

The Campbellton Neighbour-hood Association is proposing

Brian Shaw and the Campbellton Neighbourhood Association want to see access points to the Campbell River improved with viewing platforms and picnic tables, particularly at the foot of Maple Street and the Myrt Thompson trailhead.

increase in wages over the next four years. It also included a “signifi-cant jump” in wages to start with, Wangler said.

“I was impressed with the crew’s determination and applaud them for both hanging in there during these difficult times and for recogniz-ing a good first agree-ment when it was pre-sented to them.”

Chris Marleau, a Bar-gaining C ommittee member says, “The crew

is happy the dispute is over and is looking for-ward to getting back to work and welcoming customers back to the facility.”

The company and the union will work together to bring the customers and the business back to the Campbell River Chances.

Art Villa, spokesper-son for Playtime said, “we are looking forward to having our employees back in the facility, back to work and ready to again serve our guests.

The job action has been stressful for all involved, but now that it is over we are hopeful that our guests may again return to enjoy our offerings.”

Villa said the casino was closed Thursday to facilitate the re-opening and employees were scheduled to return to their full duties today with full services to resume at 10 a.m.

“Playtime appreciates the effort that went into finalizing this agreement and expects that the transition for its employ-

ees from job action to regular duties will be smooth,” he said.

This was the first con-tract for Campbell River Chances employees, the second one the USW has with this operator, the other one being in Abbotsford.

“USW, Local 1-1937 would like to thank all those that supported our members throughout this ordeal and hope that if they are gaming enthu-siasts they will play at the Campbell River facility,” Wangler said.

Three people have been arrested and are facing multiple charges in connection with a string of thefts from vehicles going back to last October.

“A 24-year-old Camp-bell River woman, a 20 year old Campbell River man and an 18-year-old Campbell River man are currently facing charges relating to the thefts,”

Cpl. Poppy Hallam said in a press release.

B etween October, 2014 and Jan. 15, 2015, Campbell River RCMP responded to approxi-mately 308 complaints of thefts from motor vehic les . C ampb el l River RCMP’s Commu-nity Response Unit was assigned to work on the investigation. Tips from the public, surveillance

video and solid police work lead the officers to the suspects and on Jan. 16 the first suspect was arrested and in the early morning of Jan. 17 the remaining two suspects were arrested. A warrant to search a residence on Eardley Road was exe-cuted and evidence was recovered.

Two of the suspects were released from cus-

tody on strict conditions including curfews and no contact with each other. The 18-year-old male is still in custody as he has other outstanding charges before the court.

During the course of the investigation, police seized over 100 pieces of evidence related to the thefts from vehicles and will be attempting to reunite these items with

the rightful owners. This has and continues to be a complex investigation,” Cpl Hallam said.

Meanwhile, police are urging residents to help them out.

“Please continue to report suspicious activ-ity to police because we cannot do it alone, we have to work together as a community,” Cpl. Hal-lam said.

Brian was overwhelmed with the true acts of kindness shown to us by family, friends and complete strangers. Brian was always the type that helped others, and was humbled by the amount of love shown to him over this past year.

Brian worked hard, played hard and loved deeply. You always knew you could count on him for anything at any time. He was the best man I have ever known. And his deepest love came at the birth of his daughter, Ashley. He often said “you don’t know love, until you have a child”. Brian was the most devoted friend you could wish for, and those friendships meant the world to him. He loved his family and showed it in his own unique ways. We each had our own special bond with Brian... husband, father, son, brother, uncle and friend. I was spoiled to have 28 years with him.

Brian loved to laugh and have a good time, and wanted others to do the same. To celebrate all that Brian was, we will be having a bonfire on the beach at Ken Fordes ramp, Sunday, January 25th with a special send off at 4:00 pm. Take time to remember your special moments with Brian, raise a drink and know that he is smiling back at you.

to install five different viewing platforms along the river in order to make it more accessible to tourists and Camp-bell River residents.

Currently, there are no view points along the south shore of the Campbell River between the end of Myrt Thomp-son Trail and the log-

ging bridge upriver.Shaw told council

that there are two areas along the river that the association would like the city to pay attention to.

“The first would be the MOH (Ministry of Highways) and city lands west of the bridge right of way heading north along Tamarac

Street,” Shaw said. “The MOH parcel, which was utilized as a laydown yard when the bridge was being constructed, needs to be acquired by the city in the near term.”

Shaw said the Neigh-bourhood Association has a vision to develop a small park area off the road near River Sports-man and the bridge that connects Campbellton with northern Campbell River.

“Conceptual site plan-ning work illustrates that the site would work well for a Tour-ist Information Centre with access off of Enns Road,” Shaw said. “The site is large enough to accommodate a 2,000 plus square foot build-ing with ample vehicle parking and landscaped boulevards. An exten-sive park area could be developed along the Campbell River with a lookout platform at the river’s edge and a walkway heading south under the bridge struc-ture.”

But, before the associ-ation can move forward with those plans, Shaw

said the city would need to acquire those lands and take the lead on producing a detailed site plan. The second area the Campbellton Neigh-bourhood Association is looking at is at the end of Maple Street and the Myrt Thompson Trail.

“We need to create a

site plan and design, to construct a fishing and outlook platform along the Campbell River and to undertake substantive improvements on the Myrt Thompson Trail,” Shaw said. “This project would involve close con-sultation with Campbell River Indian Band as

owners of the land base, given the need for a new parking lot on band land at the entrance to the trail system.

“The River Corridor Plan for this area needs to be compatible with the plans the band has to develop the area.”

Shaw said a detailed

site plan, design and construction budget could be prepared by an architect for roughly $16,000, but again, the city would have to be willing to take on the costs in order for the Campbellton Neigh-bourhood Association to move forward.

The C ampb el l ton Neighbourhood Asso-ciation has big plans to improve that section of the city in 2015.

While the group would like to plant a com-munity garden where neighbours can gather, and liven up the streets with banners, one of the items at the top of the list is the establishment of bus shelters.

Brian Shaw, co-chair of the Neighbourhood Association, told coun-cil at its Monday night meeting that Campbell-ton deserves the same treatment as the rest of the city.

“Seven shelters were developed last year. Please note that Camp-bellton has no bus shel-ters and that with the addition of the Willis Road route, some of that allocation should go to Campbellton this year,” Shaw said.

The association is recommending that a transit hub be created and that it be centrally located – at Redwood and Highway 19A.

To a c c om m o d at e pedestrians walking to and from the bus stops, the Neighbourhood Association is also ask-ing the city to consider adding more sidewalks in the Campbellton area, to complement the new sidewalks that were added last year on 15th Avenue and Spruce Street.

To further improve pedestrian safety, the addition of pedestrian crossing lights at key Campbellton intersec-tions, as well as street light improvements, are also on the Neighbour-hood Association’s list.

Shaw said there are several street lights

that need to be either installed or replaced.

“The village is poorly illuminated,” Shaw said. “We’ve provided the city with a complete review of the changes required last November. We understand that the administration is in dis-cussions with BC Hydro and request council consider funding any requirements demanded by Hydro to make our streets safer.”

But while the asso-ciation is asking for the city’s help, Shaw pointed out that the group is somewhat self-sufficient and last year fundraised $14,512.

“We actually have

made money this year and we’re not totally dependent on city assis-tance, although it is cer-tainly appreciated,” Shaw said.

C ou n . R on Ke r r praised the association for its efforts.

“Your whole organi-zation has been doing a great job. You’re work-ing hard,” Kerr said. “The thing I like is you haven’t been just putting your hand out and ask-ing for money. You’ve been steadfastly making money, raising money and making efficient use of your time.”

Kerr also told Shaw that he would be bring-ing some of the Camp-

bellton Neighbourhood Association’s project requests to council’s 2015 budget discussions which get underway next month.

One of those requests is for funding to con-tinue the partnership between the Campbell-ton Neighbourhood Association and Van-couver Island University. Last year the city gave the association a $7,500 grant and $3,000 in in-kind donations, as well

as made an application to the BC Real Estate Foundation for a further $10,500 grant. Shaw said the group is requesting the same from the city this year in order to re-hire a geography class from the Nanaimo-based university.

“We ask that council fund CNA $7,500 and we will make up the differ-ence of $10,500 in order to apply for the matching $10,500 using the same formula as last time,”

Shaw said. “The program has been a great success. The class provided us with a very professional action plan (for Camp-bellton) last fall.”

Shaw told council that if he had to prioritize the association’s projects for 2015, continuing on the partnership with the Vancouver Island Uni-versity students would come in at number one.

“I think it’s very impor-tant for the future right now,” Shaw said.

“When do you suppose everything will go on sale?” people gleefully asked when they heard of the immi-nent closure of one of Canada’s big-box retailers, wringing their collective hands at the sound of words like “liquidation.”

When retail giant Target announced its plan to expand into Canada, many thought it would provide competition for stores like Walmart and Superstore. We thought they would offer a range of affordable products and add options to our consumerism. We thought the American behemoth would bring with it the buying power – and therefore discounts on goods – they enjoy across the border in the U.S. But it was not to be.

The general feeling out there is that Target took on too much, too fast. They overreached and wrongly assumed while delivering too little benefit to Cana-dians, who had lofty (some would say naive) expec-tations for the retailer to live up to. People expected

to find here what they found when they went south to shop. And now they have announced their departure, and the first thing the public thinks is, “When does the

blowout start?”We don’t blame people for thinking this way. We

understand that everyone’s budgets are tight in these tough economic times. But we also wish the public’s thoughts would turn more quickly to those who will soon find themselves out of work, and the impact of Target’s departure on others who, through no fault of their own, will take a financial hit due to the retailer’s failure here.

More than 17,000 Canadians are employed by Tar-get. The company has formed a trust to help those who will lose their jobs, but anyone who has ever lived with employment uncertainty will point out, that’s little consolation right now.

An anonymous letter received recently by Black Press from a Target employee said, “Many of us don’t know where we will go after Target closes. We don’t know how we’ll make ends meet. So in light of all the sales that will happen, please remember that the employees are people, too. We don’t want to be asked when the store officially closes or when the crazy sales will start. A kind wish of ‘good luck’ will do.”

So maybe next time you see a “Going Out Of Busi-ness” sign, try to think about someone else’s plight and have some empathy instead of rushing in to find out what’s on sale, elbowing your way down the aisles.

Target employees suffer the fallout

Our View

We say: Give some thought to jobs lost rather than bargains

Campbellton: a river runs by itMan, I tell you, I love a grand

vision.And Brian Shaw and the rest

of the Campbellton Neighbour-hood Association have a grand vision for the Campbell River as it runs past Campbellton.

I spent a few minutes at the Campbell River Wednesday afternoon setting up a photo to go with Kristen Douglas’ story on the Rescue The River cam-paign the CNA has launched.

While we were down there, Shaw outlined their vision for turning the river into a tourist and resident asset by installing viewing platforms and access points to the river.

Just like Campbell River’s oceanfront is one of the com-munity’s greatest recreation amenities and tourist draws – via the Seawalk and the spec-tacular ocean views – so, too can the river become a popular draw. If you can get at it.

Right now the most popular access point to the river is at the foot of Maple Street where the Myrt Thompson Trail begins. Besides accessing the trail

along the river and into the estuary behind the Tyee Spit, the street at the trailhead ends right at the river’s edge.

And that is a popular place for snorkellers to exit the river. Except it’s a tough spot to get out. The rip rap (oh, the inevitable, ubiquitous rip rap in this town) and the blackberry brambles have to be tough to scramble over to get out of the water. The CNA proposes a water-level platform to allow paddlers and swim-mers to get out of the water.

In the same spot, the CNA also proposes a higher viewing platform that would look north from the foot of Maple Street over the estuary and mouth of the river. It’s a spectacular view with plenty of bird life and wildlife (salmon, seals, mink, etc.). Stick a couple of picnic tables and you have a fantastic recreational spot.

But the CNA won’t be stop-ping there. They also propose an access point at an empty lot just north of the Tamarac Street

bridge. The vision for

this area is no less than spectacular. The parcell of land is owned by the city and the Ministry of Highways. The CNA believes this site would work well for a Tourist Information Centre. It is large enough to accommodate a 2,000 sq. ft. build-

ing as well as a parking lot that could handle buses.

But beside the lot and an infocentre is a walled (and rip-rapped) stretch of river bank with a chain link fence (pre-sumably to stop people from falling into the river). This section of river drops steeply to the riverbank and so would work well as a location for a long platform that would pro-vide access to the river for –

and this is the part I love – fish-ing the river. It’s like a pier for the river. As big a tourist draw as the Discovery Pier is, imag-ine fly fishing off a platform into the Campbell.

The theme behind all of this is to open up more access to the river, particularly in a stretch that has been extensively urbanized.

It’s due for a makeover because it’s kinda ugly. The problem is, this is the entrance to Campbell River for a lot of visitors. Shaw said googling Campbell River will land you right at the corner of Tama-rac and Highway 19, near the MOH/City lot. Not the most picturesque introduction to Campbell River.

Campbellton really does need a makeover. Of course money is tight these days but there are infrstructure dollars avail-able from senior governments. Some of the improvements, however, like the Rescue the River proposals, can be done with fewer dollars.

It would at least be a start.

Re: U.S. ripping us off on water, B.C. Views (Jan. 7).This is an issue all of B.C. should have the same

view on and an extremely important one at that. Energy Minister Bill Bennett should have given the 10-year notice to exit the agreement.

I don’t think we could ever actually deny the U.S. access to our water, as it would ultimately lead to an invasion. We should however fire the warning shot that we want a fair dollar for the resource.

Saanich’s new interim chief administrative offi-cer is promising to help tackle the many chal-lenges facing Saanich and its council over the coming months.

Andy Laidlaw, who retired earlier this month as Campbell River’s city manager after four years in that role, will begin work Jan. 28 and remain as acting CAO until Saa-nich council finds a per-manent replacement.

Laidlaw replaces for-mer CAO Paul Murray, who left the District in December with a hand-some $476,000 sever-ance – including $55,000 in unused vacation time – after Mayor Richard Atwell asked Murray to step down.

In a statement, coun-

cil said Laidlaw brings nearly 40 years of local government leadership experience to the interim CAO role. He spent 35 years with the City of Nanaimo and held senior positions includ-ing director of parks,

recreation and culture and general manager of operations.

Laidlaw will be taking over bureaucratic opera-tions at the District of Saanich during a con-tentious period. B.C.’s privacy commissioner Elizabeth Denham is currently investigating the installation and use of employee monitoring software known as Spec-tor 360, after Saanich police investigated the software’s installation on the Mayor’s and other computers and found no criminal wrongdoing.

Denham can compel disclosure of documents, interview government or company officials, make legal findings and issue compliance orders to the District or make recom-

mendations for change.In early 2011, Laidlaw

joined the City of Camp-bell River as city man-ager where he worked until he retired in mid-January.

As a child, Laidlaw attended Frank Hobbs elementary and then Gordon Head junior high (now Mt. Douglas High).

He was also on the first team of the then-newly established Saanich Braves.

After leaving Saanich, Laidlaw went to high school in North Vancou-ver and graduated from the University of B.C. with a bachelor of recre-ation education. He then studied public adminis-tration at the University of Victoria.

Andy Laidlaw begins work in Saanich on Jan. 28.

Marine Harvest Can-ada’s Marsh Bay farm is the first salmon farm in North America to attain Aquaculture Steward-ship Council (ASC) certification. The com-pany expects its first ASC salmon to enter the North American market in February.

Meeting ASC salmon requirements is particu-larly challenging given its demanding expecta-

tions and has required fundamental changes to Marine Harvest’s Cana-dian operations. The standard emphasizes environmental and con-servation principles that protect natural habi-tats, biodiversity and wild fish populations through rigorous criteria for environmental moni-toring, responsible dis-ease management, and feed ingredient choice.

Demonstrating socially responsible practices that support workers and communities is another significant focus of the standard. Given the company’s commitment to achieve certification of all farms by 2020, Marine Harvest Canada’s Public Affairs Director, Clare Backman, states he is proud of this first step which “validates our commitment to align

our operations with the toughest standards and highest environmental and social principles. We are happy to cel-ebrate this milestone which has been antici-pated by the public and our customers.” Marsh Bay joins fewer than 30 salmon farms worldwide that have succeeded in achieving the certifica-tion since the standard’s release in June 2012.

A long-established log-ging business will be get-ting new digs.

Holbrook Dyson Log-ging will be moving to a new office at 2500 Island Highway after getting approval from council for a major development permit to renovate an

old home already on the property.

The building and prop-erty, located in northern Campbell River near the corner of Highway 19A and Antonelli Road, was previously a single fam-ily residence which Hol-brook intends to trans-form into office space.

Rob Wood of Holbrook Dyson made a presenta-tion to council at its Monday night meeting to explain why the log-ging company is on the move.

“We’ve been in our present office location since ’91 and we basi-cally have outgrown the infrastructure and the parking lot where we are,” Wood said, “so we purchased this property earlier last spring and we intend to upgrade it.”

Wood said parking is particularly challenging at the current office site on 14th Avenue.

With the new space, Wood said workers will have ample space to park their cars in the lot for the day.

“The area will be for vehicle parking only, there will be no heavy equipment of any sort,” Wood said.

In addition to improve-ments to the old residen-tial home, Holbrook also plans to build a detached

workshop building on the site.

Wood assured council that only equipment will be stored in the work-shop.

“It will be dry storage – for parts and pieces – so no oils or anything,” said Wood, taking into con-sideration a stream near the property.

Kathleen Wilker, the city’s planner, said that Holbrook’s new home is far enough away from the stream that there shouldn’t be any prob-lems.

“Given that there is a property between the stream/ditch and the subject site, sedimenta-tion from the develop-ment and use on the

subject property…is of little risk,” Wilker wrote in a report to council.

“A letter from the Department of Fisher-ies and Oceans (dated Nov.1, 1999) notes that ‘there should be no new construction of any kind within 30 metres of the stream.’ The applicant has indicated that no development activity is planned for this area. As such, the streamside development permit area has not been triggered and a QEP (Qualified Environmental Profes-sional’s) assessment was not completed.”

Wilker said overall the new building should be an improvement to what’s currently on site.

“The location of the project along the ‘gate-way’ to Campbell River is

significant and of inter-est to council due to the positive visual impact the proposed improve-ments to the property will have (and) it will be noticed by all who drive past,” Wilker wrote. “The site access, internal circulation pattern and parking have been han-dled effectively by using the existing driveway/access onto Island High-way while still retaining some green area at the front of the property which softens the harsh feel associated with simi-lar commercial uses.”

Wood said he’s confi-dent that everyone will be satisfied with the end product.

“We feel that it will improve the area and it will help us a lot in the business world,” he said.

“It’s spectacular. It’s a dream come true.”

That was Brien Dolan’s reaction when he, the staff and board members of Campbell River Family Services received what to them was an unimagi-nable gift.

In mid-December, staff at the non-profit society – who provide assistance to hundreds of Campbell River families – found it was their time to accept a hand up.

Janis MacDougall, who works with Family Ser-vices, and her family were looking for a way to con-tribute to the community and chose to give Family Services the gift of real estate.

The good news was officially made public on Wednesday afternoon.

Camille Lagueux, exec-utive director of Family Services, said that after 38 years of renting space, having a place to call their own will be a dream come true.

“This gift – I don’t even know how to describe it – it’s overwhelming, it’s monumental,” Lagueux said. “I think it’s the dream of most non-prof-its to be self-sufficient in terms of building owner-ship.”

Campbell River Family Services has been leas-ing building space since its inception in 1977. It currently operates out of shared building space on 10th Avenue and pro-vides services to indi-viduals, children, youth and families. Services range from prevention to intervention and include abuse prevention and trauma treatment, family and parenting services, victim support, counsel-ling and family drop-in programs.

For MacDougall and her family, Family Ser-vices is close to their hearts.

MacDougall’s mother and father, Freda and Pat Martin, are long-time supporters of Family Ser-vices. Freda Martin said it was a no brainer when MacDougall approached her about purchasing

some property for the organization.

“We feel personally a little responsible and want to help any way we can,” Martin said. “We’ve been really proud to say Janis is with Family Ser-vices because it’s such a worthwhile service.”

It was MacDougall who approached her mother and siblings – sisters Carol Marshall and Donna Sharkey, who has since passed away, and brother David Wil-liams – about buying the property.

“They all very grate-fully said ‘yes’. My parents in the past had supported Family Services quite strongly and my sister (Carol Marshall) volun-teers here,” MacDougall said. “They all appreci-ate what has been done by the society and they stand behind it.”

While there is no time-line yet for when the new home will be up and run-ning, a sign will soon go up on the property announcing the future home of Family Services. The lot is located at 544 South Dogwood, which is beside Granlund Fire-arms; it’s the northern most property on the empty lot and is across the street from the movie theatre.

Once the property has been marked, Family Ser-vices will launch a fund-raising campaign to raise money for construction costs.

Lagueux said the pos-sibilities with the new space are endless. She has visions of adding a play-ground, a community garden where parents and their children can

grow carrots and lettuce together, and play ther-apy rooms for children who have witnessed or experienced trauma and abuse.

MacDougall said as happy as she will be to see Family Services grow into their own space, she also hopes that her fam-ily’s efforts will encourage others to step up and lend support.

“For our family, our hope is that this is a first step and that others in the community will see the great things that Campbell River Fam-ily Services has done locally and be willing to also participate in creat-ing and helping to build this new home,” she said. Dolan, the chair of the Family Services board of directors, said he hopes it will help shed some light on the society and its role in the community.

“The clients we serve

and the work we do is somewhat in the shad-ows,” Dolan said. “It’s not super high-profile but the work we do is so fundamentally impor-tant.” Lagueux said she hopes to see a new build-

ing within the next few years.

“We do have a dream and hopefully in three years or less we will be dedicating our building,” Lagueux said. “We’ve got a lot of dreams.”

The internationally acclaimed Ensemble Vivant will play at the Quadra Community Center on Friday, Feb. 6.

Presented by the Quadra Island Cultural Committee, Ensemble Vivant has been hailed as “Canada’s Chamber Music Treasure.”

Their recordings and concerts throughout North America and Europe are performances at the highest level of music-making.

Led by pianist Cath-erine Wilson, with Cory Gemmell, violin, Sybil Shanahan, cello, Norman Hathaway, viola and jazz great Don Thompson on vibes and piano, Ensem-ble Vivant has won inter-national recognition for their passion, virtuos-

ity and sublime musi-cal sensitivity. Expect a genre-diverse concert, including arrangements written exclusively for the group by some of today’s greatest jazz com-posers.

Virtuoso pianist and recording artist Cath-erine Wilson is one of Canada’s most talented and innovative pianists. She has been repeatedly honoured for her excep-tional artistry as well as her unique and imagina-tive programming.

Five seasons ago, jazz legend and west coast native Don Thompson, O.C., joined the group in concert and record-ing. Well known in the jazz world as a brilliant multi-instrumentalist, he has enriched the jazz

repertoire of the group with arrangements and compositions of his own.

Inspired by his asso-ciation with Catherine Wilson and Ensemble Vivant Don wrote: “I’ve been a professional musician for the past 50 years and during that time I’ve worked with some of the greatest musicians in the world, from Glenn Gould to Oscar Peterson. But the passion and beauty of Catherine Wilson’s piano playing is overwhelming. She is a beautifully gifted pianist and musician with a depth of feeling that separates her from the rest. I am honored to be part of her music and honored to join Canada’s world class Ensemble Vivant.”

With an exciting pro-gram drawn largely from two of their eleven recordings, “The Fugue Project” and “Latin Romance,” this concert should change any pre-conceptions of Chamber Music.

Doors open at 7 p.m., concert begins at 7:30 and will conclude by 10

p.m. allowing audience members to return to Campbell river on the last ferry. Advance tick-ets are $17 and are avail-able at the usual out-lets: the Music Plant in Campbell River, Inspira-tions in Quathiaski Cove and Works of H’Art in Heriot Bay. Tickets at the door will be $20.

Rivercity Players presents

The Museum at Camp-bell River invites the community to an ‘After-noon with Haig-Brown Writer In Residence David Carpenter’, to be held on Saturday, Jan. 31, from 1-2:30 p.m.

The author will read from a selection of his works, talk about his life as a writer and open up the floor to questions.

Carpenter is the first writer to ever repeat the residency, having par-ticipated nine years ago, and he looks forward to engaging with the local community. He is plan-ning to hold readings in and around the commu-

nity, book club discus-sions, workshops at the Museum as well as par-ticipation in the writer’s festival, Words on the Water. He will also be on hand to assist local writers offering one on one consultations.

Despite this busy schedule, he also intends to find time to write, and will work on his lat-est book, The Gold, that examines the life of an Englishman searching for gold in the Northwest Territories in the 1930s. His expectations of the Residency are based on the excellent experience he had the first time

round, when he finished two books (A Hunter’s Confession and Niceman Cometh).

“The amount of work I managed to complete at the Haig-Brown House,” he notes, “was stagger-ing.”

Carpenter says that he has always had an inter-est in nature writing and “in Roderick Haig-Brown’s work in particu-lar.” He wrote a hom-age to Haig-Brown for the magazine Outdoor Canada and confesses to “having fallen under the spell of the master him-self.”

Before becoming a full time writer in the 1990s, Carpenter taught English Literature at the University of Sas-katchewan, and earned a PhD at the University of Alberta. He continues to teach creative writ-ing at the Banff Centre. He has had 12 books of fiction and non-fiction published; five of which have one awards. Car-

penter’s books will be available for purchase at this event.

T h e Ha i g - B r o w n Writer in Residence Pro-gram is supported by the Canada Council for the Arts and has been a pro-gram of the Museum for over 10 years. The cost for the event is $7.00. Call 250-287-3103 to reserve a seat.

80% of all children’s learning is through the eyes* so it is very important that all children have an eye exam by age 3, and yearly after that.

Healthy eyes are critical to maintaining yours and your children’s overall health and wellness.

Regular Eye Health Exams with your optometrist can also provide early detection of many issues without obvious sypmtoms such as Glaucoma, Diabetes, High Blood Pressure, and many more.

Family Literacy Week!

Studies into the effects of music on learning are nothing new. Such studies have been conducted for decades, gaining popularity during the 1950s when research was done on something called the “Mozart Effect.” The Mozart Effect theorizes that listening to Mozart can temporarily improve performance and may even boost a person’s IQ. In response, many parents started playing Mozart and other classical music in their homes. By the late 1990s, Baby Einstein, a company that offers a wide range of developmental and entertainment products for babies and toddlers, released a series of CDs and videos that prominently featured classical music amid visual learning sequences for young children. “Baby Mozart,” “Baby Bach” and “Baby Beethoven” were just a few of the videos capitalizing on the evidence that children learn more when exposed to classical music.

Ongoing research continues to support the theory that music education can help

children on many levels. A research group from McMaster University conducted their own study into music education. That study, which was published in the journal Brain in 2006, examined two groups of children, ages 4 to 6. Each were taught the same lessons, but one group was also given musical instruction. The study found that the group of children who received musical instruction scored much better than their peers in literacy, mathematics, IQ, and memory skills.

Long Island University researchers Joseph Piro and Camilo Ortiz found that children exposed to a multi-year program of music instruction, involving training in increasingly complex rhythmic, tonal, and practical skills, displayed superior cognitive performance in reading skills compared to their peers who did not receive musical training. The authors concluded that, “because neural response to music is a widely distributed system within the brain, it would not be unreasonable to expect that some processing networks for music and language behaviors, namely reading, located in both hemispheres of the brain would overlap.”

Music education is not just for the average student. Other research shows it may be bene� cial to children with dyslexia and other learning disabilities. A study completed at Stanford University showed that mastering a musical instrument improves the ability to process parts of the spoken language. In many schools, music education is being drastically reduced

or eliminated. Parents may want to look outside the classroom for music instruction or play more

music at home.

Music education can help with school skills

Kids who read succeed.

Family fun for babies and toddlersGather household objects that make different noises, ie: plastic containers with something inside, spoons, pot lids and toys. Make lots of different sounds and rhythms. Use objects that make both hard and soft sounds. Talk about what you hear.Make a treasure basket. Fill a basket with safe household items that have different colours, textures, weights, sizes etc. For younger babies, a basket with soft fabric, a soft toy, a soft sponge, and a soft towel is appropriate.• Young babies can hold, mouth, and drop blocks.

And they can watch you stack and knock over blocks. As children develop, they can start to sort, stack and build with blocks. Make sure the blocks are designed for very young children.

How does family literacy affect children’s literacy and learning?

• Does it roll? Roll a ball back and forth between you and your toddler. What makes it roll faster? What other things will roll?

• Read books together. Books with colourful pictures, numbers, and photographs accompanied by your voice help your child learn about the world.

Through these activities, your child:• practices observing his/her world• learns to listen carefully• discovers that different objects have

different properties• learns new words• develops hand eye coordination• learns that when they do something, it makes other things happen• has fun!

A word about technology for children aged two and under: Currently, doctors and early childhood education professionals recommend limited or no screen time for infants and toddlers. When technology is used, it should be used with adults to help strengthen adult-child relationships.

Families spontaneously engage in meaningful and purposeful literacy, regardless of socioeconomic, cultural and linguistic differences.

• When parents are more involved and more engaged, children tend to do better academically and socially.

• Research provides strong evidence for the contribution parent-child interaction makes to children’s literacy and language development.

• Mother’s reading skills are strongly associated with children’s reading and mathematics achievement.

• The child spends 900 hours a year in school and 7,800 hours outside school. Which teacher has the bigger in� uence? Where is more time available for change?

• The bene� ts of shared book reading “are well documented and clearly demonstrate that shared storybook reading plays an important role in the development of language skills in both preschoolers and school-aged children. In particular, shared book reading enhances language comprehension, vocabulary development, and certain elements of phonological awareness.”

• In Canada, children whose parents often engaged in a literacy-related activity with them before they started school did better on reading achievement tests.

• Regardless of socio-economic background, children whose parents read books to them in their early school years had better reading test scores at age 15. The parent-child activities that seemed to make the largest difference were reading a book, talking about things done during the day, and telling stories.

Exams are just around the corner for Campbell River high school stu-dents and revisions are constantly being pushed to the last minute.

Carihi offered after-school tutoring three times a week for stu-dents who need help with exam preparations. And it seemed to help kids a lot.

“It’s a nice and quiet area to study and work by yourself, or with your

friends if they’re not in your classes. Having a teacher there who can help if you need it is also nice,” says Julianna, a Grade 10 student.

She also says, “it’s a good incentive to actu-ally do your work, because a lot of the time I don’t get stuff done at home.”

It’s a stressful subject that people often for-get about, but studying is a big part of any high school student’s life, and kids often forget about exam week until it’s

already there.Chariti Stewart says

that “a lot of kids really need the time to work after school, even if it didn’t help me person-ally.”

Cramming for forgot-ten subjects can be seen in classrooms and out-side of them too, and Austin, a Grade 10 stu-dent, says “it’s going to take me at least six hours of studying for one of my exams and we crammed a lot of information in at the last few weeks in a couple of classes.”

After-school tutoring is certainly helping a lot of students get through the stressful and tiring weeks leading up to exams and will pay off once exams actually take place.

“I only went once and really it was more to work on overdue assign-ments than everything else,” says Hayley Ellis.

Even just an environ-ment free of distractions and temptations could help a student get their work done before exams, despite what a daunting topic it might seem like.

With the switchover of semesters just over two weeks away, students have begun to feel the strain of the incoming days.

Preparations for provincial govern-ment exams often leads to stress and anxiety, which has led many students to question the current methods of standardized testing. In British Columbia, the required provincial exams differ for each grade, with Grade 10 having three, and Grades 11 and 12 having one. Twenty per cent of a Grade 10 and 11student’s final marks are dependent on their exam score, while for Grade 12 stu-dents, it is worth 40 per cent. These exams often feature multiple choice and written section. Students get a total of three hours to complete the exam. The exams are formatted so that each student will have an equal opportunity to demonstrate their understanding of the subject. How-ever, standardized testing has been criticized by those who believe it to be an inaccurate way of grading a student’s knowledge, as the condi-tions surrounding the exam can

affect those taking it. “It really depends on the person and the subject. It’s hard to come up with a different way to judge how much a student has learned in math, but with English, there’s such a wide variety of options, and most people have difficulty producing work that accurately reflects their skills and learning outcomes in that limited amount of time,” said Gina Klein, a Grade 12 student who has exams in Physics 12 and Pre-calculus 12 this semester. “There’s a lot of factors that could interfere with a student’s ability to perform under those cir-cumstances. If someone has an off day, gets horrible test anxiety, or if they don’t work well under pressure, that could completely change the way they go about doing the exam.” Megan Koster joins those who believe that exams are an inaccurate way of accessing students, stat-ing: “Test scores do not accurately measure learning; they measure a student’s ability to excel at standard-ized tests.”

It begs the question: Is there an alternative way of standardized test-ing that benefits both parties? Or is the current format the most efficient way?

Is all this stress necessary?

Tutoring provides some reliefEvan JohansEn/Carihi Mirror

Carihi’s newest infra-structure is pinned to the gym wall for athletes to look up to.

It’s an honour board, recognizing sports teams for their accomplish-ments, including placing at regional, provincial and national champion-ships. It also lists alumni athletes that have gone on to achieve excellence in sport.

Many athletes at Carihi participating in one or more sports teams also succeed academically and in the arts, integrat-ing the athletic com-munity with the school and with other aspects of learning and achieve-ment. Here’s what stu-dents had to say about the honour board, and the recognition of sport programs at Carihi.

“I think its important that athletes get recog-nized because they pour a lot of time and energy into fulfilling their goals.

As athletes we have to make a lot of sacrifices with school or family and friends so its really encouraging when we get positive feedback,” says Renate Bluschke, a student who plays on Carihi’s basketball, vol-leyball and track teams, as well as participat-ing in volleyball and track in the community. “Every other high school I’ve been to has had an honour board and I’ve always asked myself why Carihi didn’t have one. I think it’s really good that we are finally put-ting one up. I hope it

will serve as a form of recognition for the hard working athletes Carihi has had over the years as well as an inspiration for our younger athletes coming in.”

Madison Ashcroft plays for Carihi’s senior girls soccer team and Comets community track team runner. She says, “The vision I have for the honour board would be that people with records or placing won’t be forgotten, we’ll remember that those people came from Car-ihi and our little town. It will also be like a goal

for some people, know-ing that someone from a small town could make it big.”

Carihi alumni athlete and runner Brendan Hoff says he has felt the school and community’s support, and is thrilled local athletes will be bet-ter recognized for their successes.

“The honour board would mean a lot for the athletes that have worked very hard to achieve their goals and represented their school while competing,” Hoff says. “In my mind I feel like the band program and musical theatre pro-gram hasn’t been recog-nized enough for some of the amazing work they have done and pro-duced. I’m very grateful for how much support Carihi has given over the years. They have recog-nized many of my great achievements and I’m very proud I was able to represent my school and home town for my first two years of high school.”

More and more people are using bikes as their main form of transpor-tation these days.

It’s cheap, relatively easy and, of course, it’s a great way to get some physical activity.

Unfortunately, along with the rise of cyclists, bike theft is also becoming more and more frequent.

“My mom’s brand new mountain bike was stolen from our garage,” says Megan Koster, “We’d always felt like our neighborhood was safe from theft, but now we are a lot more care-ful.”

Unfortunately, bike theft happens all over our city.

“I left my bike hiding in the rocks by the pier, because I wasn’t allowed to walk my bike on to the pier,” says Dan-iel Morton. “When I came back it was

gone, I was crushed, and I couldn’t get anywhere, it really sucked,”

What can Campbell Riverites do if their bike is stolen?

According to the City of Campbell River website, the best thing to do is to tell the police as much as possible, as soon as possible.

If you plan on leaving your bike unattended, locked or not, write down the serial number and take pic-tures of your bike.

Once reported to the police, the serial number and description will go into their computer system.

If your bike is stolen, it is recom-mended to also check local pawn shops.

However, the best way to prevent bike theft is simply by using high quality locks. It’s a smart and safe investment. At the end of the day, would you rather purchase a lock, or a new bike?

The North Island’s annual Relay for Life is

looking to get bigger. By going smaller.

The fundraiser for the Canadian Cancer Society, facing declining participation in both Campbell River and Port Hardy, is trimming the 12-hour, overnight relay down to a six-hour event in those commu-nities this spring.

“Unfortunately, the numbers have been declining every year,” said Lisa Harrison, the Canadian Cancer Society’s Community Giving coordinator for the North Island. “We’ve found in surveys, talk-ing to teams and par-ticipants, that 12 hours is just too much. We’ve decided to do a shorter event instead of cancel-ling it and losing those fundraising dollars.”

The Campbell River Relay for Life is sched-uled for June 19 at Phoenix Middle School, beginning at 6 p.m.

Instead of the tradi-tional walk or run from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m., partici-pants will be released at midnight. The Relay’s signature moments — the Survivors’ Lap, the lighting of the luminar-ies for those lost to the disease, and the Fight Back ceremony — will remain and be com-pressed into the short-ened format.

“I believe in the whole 12-hour concept, because the point is can-cer never sleeps,” said Harrison, who began volunteering with the relay in Port Hardy five years ago after watching her mother-in-law suc-

cumb to cancer. “And I’m sure there will be survivors offended by (the change). But we’re trying a new spin on it and feedback has been really good. People can be there, bring their kids, and still be home at midnight.”

Harrison promised the North Island relays will still feature all the entertainment, food and fun of the 12-hour version. It will just be compressed into the shorter time frame. A theme has also been added this year — Super Hero: Saving the World from Cancer, One Lap

at a Time.Harrison and her

fellow North Island organizers are also look-ing to re-introduce the baton to give the event a true relay feel.

“The purpose of the relay will be the same — celebrating survivors and remembering those lost,” she said. “The important thing is rais-ing money for cancer research, and keeping the whole thing alive on the North Island.”

Registration for teams and individuals is now under way at www.relayforlife.ca. The fee is $10 per person through the early bird registra-tion deadline Mar. 1, and $20 afterward. Those who sign up dur-ing the early bird period will also be entered in a draw for an iPad and a $100 Visa card.

New businesses and increased marine tourism could be part of the plan for Kelsey Bay Harbour after an in-depth needs analysis is conducted thanks to a $5,705 grant from the Island Coastal Economic Trust.

“Over the years, Kelsey Bay has been recognized as a strategic asset for the west coast commercial fishery and a key access point for marine tour-ism,” said ICET Chair Phil Kent.

“Not only will this plan ensure Kelsey Bay keeps that position, it will fur-ther strengthen it and attract new businesses to the region.”

Identified as a key priority in the Sayward

Economic Development Strategy Report, the Say-ward Harbour Authority, Village of Sayward, Hub City Fisheries and other proponents are commit-ted to ensuring any rede-velopment capitalizes on all opportunities.

The grant will provide the funds needed to con-duct an analysis to ensure the needs of all harbour users, current and future, are properly assessed and integrated into the har-bour development plans.

The project will include a complete site review and stakeholder consulta-tions resulting in a report providing an assessment of the harbour’s current capacity and recommen-dations for the develop-

ment required to accom-modate future activities.

“We know there is great potential in redeveloping the harbour,” said Say-ward Harbour Authority President Fred Rhodes.

“With proper planning and expansion we can expect to see increased employment during the fishing season, marine sector business expan-sions as well as new tour-ism and hospitality sec-tor opportunities. For a small community hard hit by the resource sector downturn, this is a huge opportunity to bring good jobs and vitality back to the Sayward Val-ley.”

Kelsey Bay is a small harbour located in the

Village of Sayward, situ-ated between Campbell River and Telegraph Cove on Northern Van-couver Island.

The harbour provides public, commercial, and private facilities to a vari-ety of users.

The Island Coastal Economic Trust is a $50 million endowment established in 2006 by the Government of Brit-ish Columbia to help diversify the economies of central and northern Vancouver Island and the Sunshine Coast.

ICET is guided by a Board of Directors and two Regional Advi-sory Committees which include more than 50 locally elected officials

and MLAs and five appointees. This team of leaders collaborates to set regional priorities and build vital multi-regional networks.

Sayward secures grant to help grow its marine industry

Ski hills on the south coast lacking snow know each other’s pain.

That’s why Mount Washington has offered complimentar y ski-ing and snowboarding to Mt. Seymour season pass holders while Mt. Seymour waits for more snowfall. The offer is effective immediately and is based on the operational status of the

Mystery Peak Express quad chair at Mt. Sey-mour. When Mt. Sey-mour receives sufficient snow levels to operate, the offer will expire (with one week’s notice). Don Sharpe, Director of Busi-ness Operations and Mar-keting at Mount Wash-ington Alpine Resort, said, “We are pleased to offer this opportunity to Mt Seymour Resort pass

holders; we have been in the same situation. Hopefully Mt. Seymour’s guests will get the chance to experience the snow on the Island.”

A major low pressure system across east Van-couver Island brought over 60 cm of snow to Mt. Washington in the last week. The snow base is well above the 140 cm mark.

Mt. Washington steps up to help snow-impaired Mt. Seymour


Good hearing, poor comprehension?The number of people who can hear well, but can’t understand what’s being said, is increasing. This is most evident in conversations and watching television. A newly-developed hearing chip is designed to restore speech comprehension without being noticeable in the ear.

A lot of people have poor comprehension, though they actually still hear well. It becomes noticeable in conversation, watching television and asking family to repeat what’s been said. A potential cause can be undetected loss in the high-frequency range. This means the sensory cells in the cochlea that hear high-range sounds are damaged as a result of circulatory disorders, diabetes, sudden hearing loss or workplace noise. Hearing loss in the high-frequency range makes speech sound muffled and unclear. The person with hearing loss mixes up, or can no longer hear, consonants like s, f, t, k, h and g. Speech comprehension is particularly impaired when there is background noise or when television programs have background music. The dilemma is that people with hearing loss in the high-frequency range do not

consider themselves to have a hearing problem. They can hear deep tones with no issue, and often put difficulty understanding speech down to unclear pronunciation. However, the time soon comes when problems with comprehension become annoying.

A new hearing chip has beendeveloped.

Swiss audiologists have developed a new hearing chip that restores speech comprehension, particularly with hearing loss in the high-frequency range. People can test the new Audéo V system by Phonak simply by calling now to do so. First, a hearing test

Ginette van Wijngaarden, at Connect Hearing, advises people with hearing loss on the new hearing chip, together with her colleagues.

and speech comprehension analysis is done. Where inner-ear damage is present, a software program analyzes the difference relative to normal hearing. These values are then input into the new Venture hearing chip in the Audéo V, which precisely takes into account and balances the frequency range of the person being tested. The test phase in particular is designed to clarify how speech comprehension can be improved in various situations and what role a new technology called “Autosense OS” plays. The chip recognizes where the person being spoken to is located and amplifies only his or her voice, while ambient noise is lowered and the optimum hearing programs are seamlessly adjusted. Thanks to several synchronous microphones, the hearing system can detect sound in all directions and select the direction that speech is coming from within milliseconds. According to Swiss researchers, this significantly augments speech comprehension, especially in conversation.

Interested people can register for a no-obligation demonstration of the Audéo V by calling 888.408.7377

Riptide’s Tanner Kempe, behind, fights for the ball during a game Sun-day against top-seeded Saanich at Pinecrest school field.

Riptide move into first place after tough battleThe U15 Upper Island

Riptide played the Lower Island Saanich/Prospect in a battle for first place in their division Sunday afternoon.

Saanich has been positioned there most recently but with a Rip-tide win on Sunday the Upper Island team would reclaim that prized top spot.

These teams split their previous two games this season and are widely c on s i d e re d c l o s e l y matched in terms of skill and physicality. Add-ing to this, and mak-ing the game that much

more intense were the extremely wet, slippery conditions the teams con-tended with at Pinecrest Field.

The teams traded chances in the first half with the Riptide having two glorious chances but getting thwarted by the stellar play of the Saanich keeper. With 17 minutes gone in the first half, a foul called against the Riptide led to a free kick, which the Riptide keeper was not able to corral and the ball bounced to the feet of one of the Saa-nich players who made it 1-0 Saanich. Though the

Riptide pushed hard they were held off the score-board the rest of the first half.

Riptide raised their intensity and found another gear for the second half. The team penned Saanich into their own end for much of the rest of the game and cre-ated solid chances, but Saanich’s goalkeeper made several fine saves. Finally, the Riptide’s Eugene Park was able to get his foot on a loose ball in the box and put it away, tying the game 1-1. Knowing that a tie would not be enough to

clinch first place, Riptide raised their level of play and with three minutes left in the game, a cor-ner kick taken by Charlie Purcell dropped into the centre of the box and was headed home by Nicholas Mitchell.

The Riptide now have a record of nine wins, three losses, and one tie, giving them 28 points, which puts them in first place in the league - one point ahead of Saannich/Pros-pect. Riptide’s next game is Sunday, Jan. 25 when they head to Nanaimo to play the fourth place Storm.

What you need to know about TFSAs

Tax-Free Savings Accounts (TFSAs) should be on your personal savings radar. Since they were fi rst introduced by the federal government in 2009, TFSAs have been acknowledged as a great vehicle for tax-free savings growth. To make sure you get every TFSA benefi t, here is what you need to know about TFSAs.

• Every Canadian resident over 18 years of age is eligible to open a TFSA.

• Contributions to investments held within a TFSA are not tax deductible but do grow on a tax-free basis.

• The annual TFSA contribution limit is indexed to infl ation in $500 increments and in 2013, the Canada Revenue Agency increased the limit to $5,500, where it remains for 2015.

• You’ll maximize the value of your TFSA by making the most of all available contribution room. But even if you don’t use all your contribution room every year, it accumulates year after year, so you can use it in the future.

• If you have never had

a TFSA account and have been a Canadian resident and 18 years of age since 2009, you will have $31,000 in unused TFSA contribution room.

• If you already have a TFSA account, your 2015 TFSA annual contribution room is calculated by taking:

• The annual dollar limit for 2015 of $5,500.00.

• Plus the amount of withdrawals from 2014 (excluding withdrawals of excess contributions, qualifying transfers, or other specifi ed contributions).

• Plus any unused contribution room from 2014.

• If you make a withdrawal, the earliest you can ‘earn back’ your TFSA contribution room is the fi rst day of the year after the TFSA withdrawal was made.

• If you contribute more than your allowable TFSA contribution room at any time during the year in which you made a withdrawal, you will be considered to have ‘over-contributed’ and will incur tax penalties.

• TFSA investments are generally the same

as those available for RRSPs; including mutual funds, Guaranteed Investment Certifi cates (GICs), securities listed on a designated stock exchange, and government or corporate bonds.

• Withdrawals from a TFSA do not affect eligibility for income-tested benefi ts such as Old Age Security (OAS).

• A TFSA can be a good choice for both short and long term fi nancial goals – providing a ready source of emergency funds, a good way to save for everything from a new car to a dream vacation or a down payment on a new home, saving taxes on your non-registered investments, and adding to your retirement savings. A TFSA works best for you when you work with your professional advisor to make it a vital element in your overall fi nancial plan.

PUBLIC HEARING NOTICENoti ce is hereby given that the City of Campbell River, in cooperati on with the Heart of the City Business Improvement Area Society (HoCBIAS), is proposing to establish a business improvement area in the downtown core for a 5 year term.

Over the past 5 years the owners of Class 6 Business/Other property lying within the Heart of the City Business Improvement Area (HoCBIA) have paid a “local service tax”. The tax is collected by the City of Campbell River to be used by the HoCBIAS to operate a “business promoti onal scheme”. The funds raised through the local service tax have enabled the HoCBIAS to promote the downtown core through marketi ng and beauti fi cati on projects. The boundaries of the HoCBIA are defi ned on the following map.

In order for the HoCBIA to conti nue operati ng, City Council must adopt a new bylaw which would re-establish the HoCBIA for 5 years. The Society has asked that the bylaw be processed as a “Council initi ati ve” under the authority of the Community Charter – Part 7, Division 5.

Under the “Council initi ati ve” method, Council may, by bylaw, proceed with the renewal of the HoCBIA unless at least 50% of the owners of the parcels that would be subject to the local service tax sign a peti ti on against, and the persons signing are the owners of parcels that in total represent at least 50% of the assessed value of land and improvements that would be subject to the local service tax.

HoCBIAS’ proposed budget for 2015 is $42,586, with a 7% increase the fi rst year and 5% annual increase thereaft er. In order to raise the funds requested by the HoCBIAS for 2015, owners of Class 6 property lying within the HoCBIA would be required to pay a local service tax at a rate of approximately $2.25 per $1,000 of assessed value of the improvements (buildings) on their property. The Discovery Inn and Harbourside Inn are included in the HoCBIA boundaries on the basis that it will pay a percentage of its assessed improvement value representi ng the retail porti on of the building.Owners of Class 6 property located within the HoCBIA boundary, that are opposed to the renewal of the HoCBIA, must noti fy the City in writi ng no later than 4:30 p.m. on March 4, 2015.

Informati on relati ng to the renewal of the Heart of the City Business Improvement Area, including copies of the relevant legislati on, is available for inspecti on during business hours (8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.), Monday through Friday at Campbell River City Hall, 301 St. Ann’s Road. Informati on can also be obtained by e-mailing [email protected], or by calling 250-286-5705. For more informati on on the HoCBIAS’ business promoti onal scheme please contact HoCBIAS President, John Wheat at (250) 286-1233.

Detroit Auto Show: New wheels, big dollar price tagsDetroit, MI – The daddy of all auto shows isn’t offering much new for folks with lean budgets this year.But if you are in the market for trucks, super cars or green vehicles, then there’s plenty to feast your eyes upon at the North American International Auto Show. In recent years, new compact cars have been heavily featured but there was none of significance launched here during this year’s press preview days. Asian manufacturers tend to dominate that market segment and increasingly they choose to launch their new wares at other shows such as the now important Los Angeles extravaganza in November (of the preceding model year).But those whose work demands truck ownership will not be disappointed with new offerings populating the stands here. Traditionally, domestic manufac-turers have dominated the truck market but now the so-called import manufac-turers (most of whom now operate full production lines and design centres here in Canada and the U.S.) are mounting a serious challenge.The introduction of the Nissan Titan at the turn of the century caused some rip-ples in the full-size truck market but the 2016 Nissan Titan XD could make some more substantial waves. It takes its design lead from the Big Guys, with a bold and bulky design because that’s what consumers want. Nis-san doesn’t threaten to be number one in performance and fuel economy because it believes you can’t have it both ways. Arguing that excelling in one often comes at a cost to the other. Listening to its existing owners and new customers, it determined being “up there” in both areas will check more consumer boxes.

The fully equipped XD promises a towing capability of more than 12,000 pounds, and payload capacity of 2,000 pounds with the fuel-efficiency of a half-ton pickup. Looking forward to later this year when we can put our truck expert Ian Harwood into a production

version of the Cummins 5.0-litre V8 Turbo Diesel Crew Cab example on show here. No prices yet or news of a rollout for the rest of the new Titan range.Our Zack Spencer shares his thoughts on another truck grabbing some limelight at the show: “the Detroit-three automakers might have the lion’s share of full size pickup sales but it’s the Toyota Tacoma mid-size pickup that rules the road, out-selling the competition two-to-one.“Toyota is offering a heavily updated Tacoma with a new 3.5L V6, replacing the old 4.0L V6, and choice of either a 6-speed manual or automatic transmis-sion. The engine features direct injection technology and should vastly improve fuel economy. These and other updates should ensure the latest Tacoma remains dominant.”Hybrid and electric powered-vehicles are no longer a novelty feature here and

now an increasing share of the floor space. Virtually every manufacturer has a production model to sell or a promise of more for the near future.The second generation Chevrolet Volt looks nearly as sharp as the artist’s impression of the first model, which didn’t live up to its promised looks when it rolled off the production line.

Nissan Titan XD

Bolt EV concept

Infiniti Q60Acura NSX

‘‘In recent years, compact cars have heavily featured but there was none of significance launched here.’’Keith Morgan

Detroit, MI – The daddy of all auto shows isn’t offering much new for folks with lean budgets this year.But if you are in the market for trucks, super cars or green vehicles, then there’s plenty to feast your eyes upon at the North American International Auto Show.In recent years, new compact cars have been heavily featured but there was none of significance launched here during this year’s press preview days.Asian manufacturers tend to dominate that market segment and increasingly they choose to launch their new wares at other shows such as the now important Los Angeles extravaganza in November (of the preceding model year).But those whose work demands truck ownership will not be disappointed with new offerings populating the stands here. Traditionally, domestic manufacturers have dominated the truck market but now the so-called import manufacturers (most of whom now operate full production lines and design centres here in Canada and the U.S.) are mounting a serious challenge.The introduction of the Nissan Titan at the turn of the century caused some ripples in the full-size truck market but the 2016 Nissan Titan XD could make some more substantial waves. It takes its design lead from the Big Guys, with a bold and bulky design because that’s what consumers want. Nissan doesn’t threaten to be number one in performance and fuel economy because it believes you can’t have it both ways. Arguing that excelling in one often comes at a cost to the other. Listening to its existing owners and new customers, it determined being “up there” in both areas will check more consumer boxes.The fully equipped XD promises a towing capability of more than 12,000 pounds, and payload capacity of 2,000 pounds with the fuel-efficiency of a half-ton pickup. Looking forward to later this year when we can put our truck expert Ian Harwood into a production version of the Cummins 5.0-litre V8 Turbo Diesel Crew Cab example on show here.No prices yet or news of a rollout for the rest of the new Titan range.Our Zack Spencer shares his thoughts on another truck grabbing some limelight at the show: “the Detroit-three automakers might have the lion’s share of full size pickup sales but it’s the Toyota Tacoma mid-size pickup that rules the road, outselling the competition two-to-one.“Toyota is offering a heavily updated Tacoma with a new 3.5L V6, replacing the old 4.0L V6, and choice of either a 6-speed manual or automatic transmission.The engine features direct injection technology and should vastly improve fuel economy. These and other updates should ensure the latest Tacoma remains dominant.”Hybrid and electric powered-vehicles are no longer a novelty feature here and now an increasing share of the floor space. Virtually every manufacturer has a production model to sell or a promise of more for the near future.The second generation Chevrolet Volt looks nearly as sharp as the artist’s impression

of the first model, which didn’t live up to its promised looks when it rolled off the production line. More importantly, the new version delivers much more in fuel economy Alexandra Straub reports on its compact sibling: “For the EV enthusiast or those looking for alternative fuel, Chevrolet expands its electrifying portfolio with the Bolt EV Concept. With a range of more than 300 kilometres, this all-electric stylish crossover is aimed for the masses, not just the select few.“While it’s still a concept, pricing for this type of vehicle will be in the $30,000 range.

The Porsche-loving Jerry Seinfeld was flown in to add some celebrity power but there was no — because this $150,000-plus super car speaks loudly for itself.It will be powered by a new Honda V6 mated to a ninespeed dual clutch transmission, assisted greatly by three electric motors — one for each of the front wheels and another to add torque while the turbos get up to speed.Interesting that Honda should be getting back into F1 racing; now it features hybrid power plants!Ford is teasing showgoers with a stunning new 600-horsepower Ford GT, which will more than likely have a price sticker similar to that of the NSX.The Infiniti Q60 concept’s premiere appearance was somewhat overshadowed by the aforementioned machines in the media here.

Is a TFSA right for me? By Glen Clark, Sun Life Financial It’s a common question. RSP or TFSA? When I get my OAP and my CPP and then change my RRSP into a RRIF, what is best to avoid sending it all to the CCRA? Too many acronyms in the financial world, don’t you think? A Tax Free Savings Account is still a new concept, and many people don’t understand what it is. You can be sure, though, that there is no single right strategy for all investors. That’s why it’s wise to look at your plan frequently, at least annually, with your advisor and make sure it’s doing

what you need it to do. Make sure you are benefiting when it comes to that word we dread: TAXES. There are many ways to align your portfolio with tax advantages. If you don’t review it, you could be missing out on tax saving strategies, or engaging in the wrong type of investment. A TFSA is especially great for those who like to save for a certain purchase or want to have accessible money that is also working for them. And it’s TFSA season, as well as RRSP season - the perfect time of year to do that financial review!

Planning for retirement? Here’s what you need to know before completing your Ser-vice Canada pension application. You’re eligible for a pension if you’re 60 years of age or older

and you’ve paid at least one contribution to the Canada Pension Plan. If you are under 65 and are disabled when your pension comes into force, it could be converted into a disability benefit. The amount of your

pension is based on the amount of your contributions and the number of years you contributed. To offset a decline in revenue, years during which your earnings were low could be excluded from the

calculation, especially if you raised your children as the primary caregiver. In March 2014, the average payment for a new beneficiary when applying at 65, the normal retirement age, was $611.85 per month. You can apply at age 60, but your pension will be reduced. Similarly, your

pension will be increased if you apply later than at age 65. The best time to apply for your pension depends on your health, your savings, and your retirement plan. You can also split your pension with your spouse to reduce income taxes. Tools are available on the

Service Canada website at www.servicecanada.gc.ca to help you make the best choices. You can apply online on the Service Canada website or download the forms to send in by mail. You will re ceive your first payment ap proximately eight weeks after submitting your application.

A wonderful, generous heart stopped beating Jan. 17. Our much beloved son, Jordan, passed away, accidentally. He treasured his family, his mom and dad Penny and Ted, his brother Jamie, Uncle Jim, his Grandma Peggy, his Grand Jo-Anne and his beloved dog, Odysseus (Ody). Also, left to mourn are his girlfriend Tanya, Brycon, his Aunt Jane, Uncle Dave, cousins Amanda, Andrew and Tony and their families, his second cousins, great-aunts and uncles and many friends. Jordan was predeceased by his Grandpa Jack, his Poppa Bill and his Nana Valerie. Jordan loved creating electronic music, some of which has been played on radio stations throughout Canada and can be listened to on Soundcloud. He loved DJing as Doc Loveless. He started locally with Wired 4 Sound, Greyzone and Redeye Jedi. We thank his many special friends who shared his love for music and enriched his life. A Celebration of Jordan’s life will be held at 2 pm on Sunday, February 1st at the Eagle’s Hall, Campbell River. As Jordan was a collector and lover of ball caps, we ask that you wear one to his celebration in his memory if you wish. We look forward to meeting all of Jordan’s friends.Donations in Jordan’s memory may be made to the Campbell River SPCA.We are so thankful for all the love and support we’ve received and would like Jordan’s friends to call or come by the house and share their stories of our wonderful son.
