Robinson says hir-ing for early works this year will be done by the main contrac-tor, Shas PTP Ltd.
They were con-tracted to do clearing and build access roads on the eastern portion of the Pacific Trails Pipeline (PTP).
Shas is a First Nations owned com-pany and much of the sub-contracted work this summer will also be with First Nations companies, or compa-nies in a joint venture with First Nations companies that are contracted through Shas PTP Ltd., said Robinson.
F a l c o n Contracting, who is setting up the office
in Houston, is 100 percent First Nations owned and operated.
Chevron received permits for this pre-construction work from the Oil and Gas Commission in April, Robinson said.
“We also have sup-port to begin this work from all 16 First Nations bands along the proposed PTP route who are partners in the project through the First Nations Limited Partnership.”
Actual construc-tion of the pipeline will not begin until a Final Investment Decision is made. Robinson says they do not have a date estimate for the final investment decision at this time.

up in government care without parents set-ting aside a college fund are being prom-ised a new potential source of aid for their education.
The province is putting $250,000 into the newly cre-ated Learning Fund for Young Adults (LFYA), which will be available to youth born in 2007 or later once they turn 17, pro-vided they’ve spent at least a year in govern-ment care.
Disbursements for post-secondary edu-cation or vocational training would start in 2024.
LFYA is to be an alternative to the exist-ing BC Training and Education Savings Grant, which wasn’t available to many youth in care because it required them to have a Registered Education Savings Plan.
The province is also transferring $1.5 mil-lion into LFYA from the BCTES program account and $500,000 a year in subsequent years. That’s equiva-lent to $1,200 for each eligible child or youth in care.
“Children and youth who have been in government care deserve to have the same opportunities as their peers from more traditional fam-ily backgrounds,” Children and Family Development Minister Stephanie Cadieux said.
The new fund is administered by the Victoria Foundation.
Other government programs offer help with tuition and other costs for former youth in care, who may also be eligible for tuition waivers now offered at many post-secondary institutions.
The province launched a new web-site agedout.com to provide help with life skills for youth who are about to turn 19 and age out of govern-ment assistance.
‘Left lane hog’ rule kicks inHighway drivers who
hog the left lane and hold up faster traf� c
without a good reason now face potential $167 � nes, with three penalty points.
The clari� ed regula-tion took effect June 12 and requires drivers to stay right on routes where the speed is more than 80 kilometres per hour when other traf-� c is approaching from behind.
The exceptions in which the left lane is okay is when you’re overtaking and passing another vehicle, leaving the right lane open to allow traf� c to merge, preparing for a left hand turn, or moving left to pass an of� cial vehicle with a � ashing light.
The rules do not ap-ply to HOV lanes – the next lane to the right is considered the left-most lane on routes such as Highway 1 in Burnaby.

Take part in the future of UNBCWhat were you doing on June 22, 1990?
If you were an MLA, you were raising your hand in support of a
motion to create a northern university. It was a simple act that came after an unprecedented social movement in Northern BC that changed the course of this region forever.
UNBC is 25 years old and our first generation is loaded with stories that describe the successes of our students, faculty, and alumni. We have nearly 12,000 graduates and the majority of them are living and working in Northern BC, contributing their skills and creativity to make our communities better. In fact, we have more graduates working in health care than any other single sector.
The story of UNBC is personified by the story of the Unger family of Burns Lake. In the late 1980s, Wendell Unger was working in con-struction and decided to join the campaign for a northern university, paying $5 to join the Interior University Society. 16,000 other northerners did as well, and today, all of Wendell’s three children are benefitting from UNBC. The two oldest are re-cent graduates of the Northern Medical Program and the youngest just completed her first year of studies. UNBC has changed their family, just as it has for countless other families around Northern BC. Samantha Unger participated in our 25th an-niversary community celebration by unveiling a display of all 16,000 names that has been installed on campus.
Earlier this month we held graduation ceremonies in five Northern BC communities and at each one, it was easy to see how the University has changed the fortunes of communities and families; not just for the person who earned the degree.
It is because of this that we want to make sure that our 25th anniversary is about more than the present and the past; it has to also be about the future. Our 25th anniversary is serving as a platform to imagine the future of UNBC, based around integrated academic and budget plans that will be rooted in our mission and grounded by sustainability. The planning process will certainly involve our campus community but it’s natural for UNBC to move beyond our campuses and involve the citizens and communities of Northern BC and beyond.
Take the opportunity to be involved in the future of UNBC, just as 16,000 northerners were actively involved in creating it in the first place. The next 25 years won’t be easy, with declining populations of young people and a challenging fiscal environment, but UNBC is a tremendous resource for the region and we’ll need your continued support and engagement to be even better.
Dr. Daniel Weeks is the President and Vice-Chancellor of the University of
Northern British Columbia.
The fight for a cure typeBy Lori Welbourne
On a brighter note
Kim Findlater is what some refer to as a helicopter parent, constantly hovering nearby, watching that her child is safe and out of harm’s way. But this parenting style wasn’t one she chose; rather it was thrust upon her when her seven-year-old daughter Arielle was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in late September 2013. They never saw it coming.
“I always thought it was genetic,” Kim said. “Or something brought on by a poor diet, it wasn’t anything we ever worried about.” But looking back, she can see signs.
Arielle would come home from school, drink copious amounts of water and frequent the bathroom. Kim figured it was because she wasn’t drinking enough during the day.
She also became very skinny. Her appetite was large, so her thinness didn’t worry her parents. They thought she was
just going through a growth spurt.
She was also tired. She woke up from a three hour nap fatigued and not her vibrant self, so her parents took her to the doctor. When blood samples showed a glucose level at 16 she was immediately admitted to the hospital where she stayed for the next seven days.
Her body was feeding off itself and she endured countless needles to get her glucose levels balanced. Dehydrated and constipated, she also had to drink a disgusting potassium drink so she would not end up in the intensive care unit.
“We bribed her with gifts to get her to drink that vile stuff,” Kim said. “Between that and blood samples every half hour, the poor kid proved to have stronger nerves than us.”
Her diagnosis of type 1 diabetes was a shock, and her life, and the lives of her family, forever changed.
Already busy with Arielle, and another daughter Isla, who was
18 months old, Kim was about to restart her own small business after maternity leave. But everything changed.
Type 1 diabetes can happen to anyone, it’s not preventable and you can’t pre-test. It’s a chronic condition that usually appears in childhood or adolescence where the pancreas doesn’t produce insulin, a hormone that enables us to get energy from food.
Through medical research it is no longer a death sentence. Insulin can be administered to the patient to keep them at normal levels. That is easier said than done. Kim had to monitor everything Arielle consumed and any physical activity she was part of, and then calculate how much insulin she’d need to bring her sugar levels to a livable state.
For the first year anywhere from four to nine shots were given a day, and she had to monitor her blood glucose levels at night. Arielle now
wears a device that automatically checks every five minutes. “That’s an extra $350/month just to sleep,” Kim said. “Even with a good medical plan, there are many extra expenses.”
Another cost has been Arielle’s peer interaction. Once a social butterfly, she now isn’t always included.
“She used to be so easygoing,” her mother said. “She’s more sensitive now. Blood sugar levels influence that. Some kids can be cruel - any sign of weakness and they feed off it. She’s often found in a quiet corner reading alone rather than playing with others.”
Kim can’t drop Arielle off at Brownies, a birthday party or a sleepover like most parents. She now has to remain close by in case something happens. Always being there has made it impossible for her to run her business. “I have lots of idle time so she can have as close to a normal and fulfilling life as possible.”
Kim’s husband is her supporter and the administrator. “If we need to buy a pump, David’s the one who will find out which one we should get.”
Fundraising helps those with type 1 diabetes - it bought them a pump.
This Sunday Arielle and her family will do the TELUS Walk to Cure Diabetes, raising money for research to better treat, cure and prevent it. If you want to support people with this disease, get more information or donate, visit JDRFca.DonorDrive.com – Arielle’s team.
While a bit of a grey cloud hangs over their heads when it comes to their little girl’s future, the Findlaters are optimistic. They know any improvements from this research will directly impact her life and the lives of over 300,000 Canadians living with type 1 diabetes. Delivering a practical cure by 2025 is the goal, but with enough help, it could be even sooner than that.

The Paci� c Northwest LNG plant proposed near Prince Rupert now has pre-liminary investment approval from its pro-ponents, prompting con� dence from
Natural Gas Development Minister Rich Coleman that the massive project could be under construction by the end of this year.
The consortium led by Malaysian � rm Petronas con� rmed it’s ready to proceed and the only conditions for a � nal investment decision are federal
environmental review approval and B.C. government approval of the project develop-ment agreement.
The Legislature is expected to be recalled this summer to pass the deal providing tax and royalty certainty clearing the way for an expected $11-billion investment.
“It would only be derailed, I suppose, if there was something in the environmental assessment that makes the project impos-sible,” Coleman told reporters Friday.
He said a con-struction start is pos-sible late this year that
would see the � rst LNG shipments mov-ing by the end of 2019.
The outlook for LNG prices has dark-ened recently but Coleman said Petronas and its Asian partners
have long-term con-tracts to sell the � rst 12 million tonnes of LNG.
“This product is ba-sically sold. They have the commercial viabil-ity on this one.”
Another problem for the project is ab-original acceptance.
The Lax Kw’alaams First Nation recently voted down a $1 bil-lion cash offer from Petronas.
More project design work and research is underway to address aboriginal concerns about the potential im-pact on salmon habitat at Flora Bank near the project site, Coleman
said.“I think I see a sight
line where we can sat-isfy the community,” he said. “I think as we come through that you’ll see that the Lax Kw’alaams will come together with every other � rst nation that’s already endorsed the project in the area.”
He described the opportunity as one of “generational change” for small � rst nations.
The federal envi-ronmental review has been paused while more information on potential habitat risks was sought. A � nal decision is considered possible by fall.

Who We KnowI am driving an older car with lots of kilometers. This
means more repairs. One time I had a problem with it losing power when accelerating. This was quite dangerous and unnerving at times, especially when passing!
Though I do some simple mechanical work on it at times, try as I may, I could not � gure out what was wrong. I took it to a local mechanic who advised me to take it to the dealership because they would be able to diagnose and repair it. They designed and manufactured the vehicle, they would have the expertise and the equipment to do this. I followed his advice. They had it � xed in a couple hours and it has run very well ever since. I do not know what they did to make it work but I am amazed at how well it runs! I wished I had brought it there much sooner.
Often this is the way it is with our lives. We have tried to manage our own affairs, problems have crowded in and life has become unmanageable, something has gone wrong. What can we do? We ask ourselves. We have tried everything to no avail. We cannot � gure it out, we have run out of power. We have even shared it with friends and the “experts” for advice, but there is still no change. We have come to the end of ourselves, we feel like giving up.
There is One we can go to who knows our every need. He is waiting for us to call out to Him. We do not have to understand exactly how he is going to work it out, but we can trust He will, in His time and in His way, because He knows what is best. He is the Almighty God, the One who made us and knows exactly what our problem is. He is the true Expert and we are the needy ones. He wants us to humble ourselves and surrender to Him and trust Him with our whole lives. The sooner we surrender to Him the better. It really comes down to Who we know, more than what we know.
“So humble yourselves under the might power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor. Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares for you.” 1 Peter 5:6,7 NLT

Bulkley Valley Credit Union has been building a solid financial institution that members from Burns Lake to the Hazeltons’ have grown to rely on. People-helping-people is how we began and we strive to remain people-oriented, both in our financial services and through direct involvement with our communities. We are dedicated to local decision making and local control, key factors in providing the kinds of services that meet the financial needs of individuals and business members alike.
Maintaining a healthy and strong financial institution is only one part of our mission. Our strong financial results have allowed us to build a very strong capital base. In addition to the patronage dollars ($598,439 in 2014) that we distribute in our communities, we also distributed over $220,000 in community support, economic development and marketing funds to community groups, individuals, and associations within our service areas. Bulkley Valley Credit Union’s Board of Directors has committed $100,000 over 5 years to the Upper Skeena Recreation Centre, for the Heart of the Hazeltons’ project.
We continue to make improvements in our products and services. We value the relationships we have established with our members and will continue to build more innovative remote banking access to allow those who may move away or simply require access to all products and services anytime, anywhere. Come see us today to experience the Credit Union difference.

Houston Today
Houston graduate Shivani Sadhir is aspiring for a career in clinical psychology.
Embarking on an eight-year educational journey, Sadhir wants to be a clinical psychologist so that she can diagnose people struggling with mental illness.
“I got the inspiration from my brother because he is really into that,” Sadhir said.
“I always hear him talking about it.” Her brother Sameer is 23 years old, has a degree in bio-
chemistry and is pursuing a degree in psychology. Sparked by his interest, Sadhir took high school psy-
chology last semester and really liked it.She says it is interesting “the way people think and per-
ceive different things.”
After graduation, Sadhir plans to spend the summer enjoying the outdoors, spending time with friends and do-ing a bit of travelling with her family.
In September, she will go to the University of British Columbia (UNBC) in Prince George to pursue a Bachelor of Science degree.
“Just because it is close to home I’m starting there,” Sadhir said.
“I don’t know how long I’m staying at UNBC for.” After earning her bachelor degree, Sadhir will tackle
another four years of university to get her PhD in Clinical Psychology.
Looking back, Sadhir says she enjoyed her years at Houston Secondary School and especially appreciated the staff.
“They are so helpful and supportive. You can always go to them for help whenever,” she said.
Looking forward, Sadhir is excited to start a new chap-ter in her life.
She says she is looking forward to living somewhere new and being close to her brother in Prince George.
“And [I’m excited to study] what I’m really interested in,” she said.
Shivani Sadhir is pursuing studies in clinical psychology, prompted by her interest in understanding how people think and perceive.
“They are so helpful and supportive. You can always go to
them for help whenever,” - Shivani Sadhir

In MemoryIt broke our hearts to lose you,
But you did not go alone. A part of us went with you, The day God took you home.
If tears could build a stairway, And heartaches make a lane,
We’d walk our way to heaven, And bring you back again.
In life we loved you dearly, In death we love you still,
In our hearts you hold a place no one could ever fill.
