Top teens vie for St. Mike’s

Like many of his classmates, Grade 11 newcomer Santiago Mazoy’s path to studying and living at St. Michaels Univer-sity School has an inspiring story.

But the 17-year-old, from Los Cabos, Mexico, is unique as the first to win the SMUS Best School Year Ever contest,

which earned him a $50,000, two-year scholarship that began in September.

“I was actually (visiting) here five years ago and saw the campus when we picked up a friend who studied (at SMUS),” Mazoy recalls.

“I knew then that I wanted to come back and study, so

when I heard about the con-test, I couldn’t wait to enter.”

Entrants are judged on a video and the contest is open to Canadian and American high school students (locals included).

Mazoy qualified as he was studying at a private school in San Diego, Calif. last year;

this year’s runner-up winners, Silke Kuhn and Alessandra Massa, hail from Abbotsford and Texas respectively and both received $10,000 schol-arships.

Police seek‘dangerous’ suspect

Saanich police detectives are on the hunt for a “dangerous” man they believe was involved in holding another man against his will at a rooming house last month.

On Nov. 24, police coincidentally discovered a 30-year-old man escaping from a home in the 3800-block of Tillicum Rd.; the man claimed he’d been held against his will and assaulted for two days.

“During that time period, the victim was seriously assaulted and subjected to degrading acts,” said Sgt.

Steve Eassie. The victim’s bank card

was used multiple times for purchases during this period.

Police are now appealing to the public for help locating Blair Lesley Beaudry, 47, in connection with the incident. Beaudry is aboriginal, about six feet tall and 255 pounds.

He is considered dangerous and should not be approached or challenged if seen. Instead, Eassie said, call Saanich police at 250-475-4321 or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222-TIPS(8477).

James Colin Walker, 38, and Name Maya McKay, 45, are still in custody on charges of assault causing bodily harm and unlawful confinement. A third person, Kayla Lynn Cobane, 42, has also been arrested on charges of robbery, unlawful confinement, fraud and theft under $5,000.

Man nabbedin vehicle break-ins

A conspicuous vehicle thief was taken down by a Saanich police dog near Shelbourne and North Dairy roads early Sunday morning.

Around 3 a.m., police responded to a report of a suspicious man in the 3200-block of Aldridge St.

Soon after, officers found the man rummaging inside a

vehicle.The suspect attempted to

flee but was taken down by police dog Grimm in a nearby driveway and arrested.

A laptop and other small items were retrieved.

Anyone with relevant information is asked to call Saanich police.

Smash and grabclears Sears

Saanich police are on the hunt for two men who stole several TVs and high-end vacuum cleaners early Saturday morning.

Around 5:45 a.m., two suspects gained entry by breaking a glass front door at the Sears Home Centre on Tolmie Avenue, just north of Mayfair Mall.

The men stole several 55” Panasonic TVs and Dyson Vacuum cleaners, said Saanich police Const. Maksym Vartanov.

The suspects escaped in a silver Ford Ranger before police arrived.

One of the men is described as Caucasian with a medium build and height and short, light brown hair.

He was wearing a black baseball hat, black jacket, black pants, white running shoes with an insignia on the side and black gloves at the time of the theft.

“Going ahead, I think understanding how code works will become something that’s necessary to succeed,” she says.

Hour of Code is touted as the largest learning event in history, and has grown exponentially in size thanks to the advent of social media. Hillcrest was one of the first three Vancouver Island schools to register, which now includes a longer list, such as Gordon Head middle school, St. Michaels University School, Esquimalt

High, Glenlyon Norfolk School, Spencer middle school and Parkland secondary.

Gwillim and Sivakumar are Powell’s challenge class and are already halfway through the 20-hour curriculum provided by code.org.

They’ll be on hand with the rest of the challenge class members to assist Hillcrest Grade 4 and 5 students doing code today.

“All the Grade 4 and 5 students will do the 20-hour program, some just haven’t started yet,” Powell says.

“Obviously diving into HTML at this point is too complicated for children but the interface on Hour of Code is very invit-ing for the kids.”

Users fit together a series of blocks, each with a specific instruction, which tell their video game how to work. They can then control the character. Other unplugged examples include board games in addition to the tower building with plastic cups.

“It’s my job to introduce this to them and after 20 hours, if their interest is piqued, they can pursue it on their own,” Powell says.

[email protected]

Travis Paterson News staff

Hillcrest elementary school students Shreya Sivakumar and Alexander Gwillim set a stack of plastic cups and paper instruc-tions on a table. Then they work out their roles for the upcoming exercise.

“I’ll be the robot; the robot stacks the cups,” says nine-year-old Gwillim, in Grade 4.

“No, I’ll be the robot,” says Sivakumar, smiling as the Grade 5 student pulls rank and age over Gwillim.

As Gwillim sets about drawing instruc-tions for Sivakumar to follow, the pair are happily to confuse work with play as they prepare for today’s international Hour of Code, a 20-hour program where kids can learn the basic principles of code be re-designing portions of popular video games like Angry Birds and Flappy Bird.

“This is an algorithm that tells (Sivaku-mar) how to stack the plastic cups into a tower,” Gwillim explains. “She has to pretend she’s a robot (to perform each step).”

The “unplugged” exercise is designed to mimic the basic, logical steps used in com-puter programming. Today’s Hour of Code begins at 1 p.m. and is part of Computer Sci-ence Week at the school.

Every Grade 4 and 5 Hillcrest student will participate today through Seattle-based code.org, which promotes the Hour of Code as a way to get kids excited about a career in computer programming. The public non-profit hopes to expand participation in com-puter science by making it available in more schools, as well as increase participation by women and underrepresented students of colour.

“I introduce it to students to open their minds, so they will think of themselves not just as users of technology but also as creators,” says Lorraine Powell, Hillcrest’s teacher-librarian with a special focus on technology integration.

In less than two years, Powell says she can see the difference learning code makes in the way kids look at things.

The codingrevolution

Did you know?n In 2013, Hour of Code hit 15 million registered users in five days. More than 56 million people have tried Hour of Code since its inception.

n On Monday, U.S. President Barack Obama took part in Hour of Code with students at a New Jersey school.

n The coding model of fitting together blocks is known as ‘blockly.’

Travis Paterson/News staff

Hillcrest elementary students Alexander Gwillim and Shreya Sivakumar work through their 20-hour computer code program ahead of today’s international Hour of Code, which begins at 1 p.m. The challenge group students are halfway through the 20 hours and will assist other Hillcrest Grade 4 and 5 students who are starting today.

Gordon Head students participate in global Hour of Code this week

“(Students) think of themselves not just as users of technology but also as creators.”

Colquitz kids tell police to ‘cram’ it

Daniel Palmer/News staff

Emily Worsfold, from left, Connor Irvine and Megan Storey display some of the donated food and gifts they’ll use to Cram the Cruiser tomorrow at Colquitz middle school, in partnership with Saanich Police Department.

Daniel PalmerNews staff

Students and staff at Colquitz middle school are aiming to stuff a police cruiser full of toys, food and cash for the Burnside Gorge Commu-nity Asssociation tomorrow.

The inaugural Cram the Cruiser is the brainchild of Saanich Police Department’s school liaison officers, who wanted to engage with students and do some good during the busy holiday season, said Grade 8 student Connor Irvine.

“Const. (Dani) Frohloff put the challenge up to us and we all had a meeting with our class reps,” Irvine said.

“All 15 classes are going to have a box we’re going to try and fill up,” said Emily Worsfold, 12.

Irvine, Worsfold and Megan Sto-

rey, 12, are part of the team orga-nizing Cram the Cruiser, which will receive one last push tonight during the school’s annual winter concert.

“Colquitz itself, we love giving back to our community,” said Sto-rey. “I’ve been volunteering at Burn-side Gorge for the past three years, where all the stuff from our cruiser will be going into Christmas ham-pers for families. We know some fam-ilies can’t afford it and we want them to have a cool Christmas, too.”

Principal Gord Mitchell gave credit to his students, who consistently fundraise and most recently donated 400 items of food to a local food bank after their Halloween dance.

“The goal is to cram the cruiser so that it actually all won’t fit,” Mitchell said. Cram the Cruiser takes place Thursday at the school.

A year-end interview with Premier Christy Clark. For an extended version see the opinion section at saanichnews.com.

TF: Are you still confident that we’re going to see a major LNG project approved by the end of 2014?

PCC: We’re still in negotiations with Petronas and Shell, so I don’t know if it will be by the end of 2014, but I’m hoping in the next few months.

[Days after this interview, Petronas announced a delay in their investment decision until 2015.]

TF: I talked to a couple of SFU climate mitigation specialists, and they agreed that it’s unlikely to the point of impossible to have a major LNG industry and still meet Gordon Campbell’s ambitious greenhouse gas target of a 33 per cent reduction by 2020. What do you think?

PCC: I think that we may prove them wrong. Many of these facilities, not all of them, will be partly or fully electrically powered up, so that reduces those impacts, and there’s going to be a real incentive to invest in new technology to minimize that as well.

I think the bigger picture is what really matters, which is that

in shipping 82 million tonnes of liquefied natural gas to Asia, we help them get off coal and other dirtier sources of oil, and that is the biggest contribution that we’ve ever made to reducing climate change.

TF: Ontario and Quebec have taken a page from your book. They have seven conditions for an oil pipeline, Energy East, which involves conversion of gas pipelines and taking Alberta oil to the East Coast. What do you think?

PCC: I think they took our five conditions and elaborated on them.

So you’ve got British Columbia, Alberta, now Ontario and Quebec, all signed on to some version of the five conditions. And of course Enbridge and Kinder Morgan as well.

TF: What about the conditions they have added?

PCC: One of the things they say they want to protect against is a shortage of natural gas coming to Ontario and Quebec. These are the same two provinces that have put a moratorium on extracting natural gas. They want to make sure that we do it here, good enough for us to do, and send it to them, but they won’t

do that themselves. I look at their last two conditions, and I roll my eyes a little bit.

TF: All the way to New Brunswick, they’ve basically bought the anti-hydraulic fracturing myth?

PCC: Yes. Somehow they all watched an American mockumentary or whatever you call it, and believed it. Here in British Columbia we do fracking better than anywhere in the world. It is the gold standard.

TF: Finance Minister Mike de Jong says we have a surplus estimated at more than $400 million for this fiscal year, and he suggested that much of that would have to go to pay off deficits from previous years. Of course the opposition is interested in welfare rates and in particular ending child support clawbacks. What’s your view?

PCC: Like any family that’s been through tough times, the first thing you need to do when you get back to finding a job and making an income again, is to pay off your credit cards. And that’s what we’re going to do.

We are going to see if we can find ways to improve some of the programs over time, but can’t do that until we can afford it. It’s typical, the NDP want us to spend the money before we have it..

Holiday happinessat the food court

A trip to one of Greater Victoria’s shopping centres in December is a strangely exhausting experience for something purported to be so satisfying.

But amongst the bustle of gift-buying, Santa queues and the full-court press at the food court, there are still sometimes gems of wisdom to be found.

An employee at a particular Greek cuisine vendor was overheard this week not only encouraging his colleagues, but wishing customers well as they rushed by. A cynic might safely assume this employee was simply attempting to drum up business, but one of his responses cut through the holiday madness like a carving knife through gyros meat.

“We see a lot of materialism here every day,” he said to an inquisitive customer. “What people need to realize is that happiness doesn’t come from outside; it’s found inside.”

The zen-like employee then spooned a dollop of tzatziki sauce atop a finished greek wrap before slapping his spatula back onto the counter in preparation for the next order.

Stunned, the customer scooped up his lunch and floated back into the sea of scurrying customers, enormous plastic bags widening his gait.

Perhaps the food service sage had Aristotle top of mind when he put on his uniform that morning: “Durable virtue will belong to the happy man, and he will be happy throughout his life, for he will always opt for virtuous acts and thoughts and he will bear the hazards of life with nobility and live beyond reproach.”

It would be Grinch-like not to take the Greek guru’s lesson to heart this holiday season. Rather than rush about with a checklist and timer, make some real connections with family, friends, co-workers and, perhaps most surprisingly, a minimum wage mall employee tasked with handling the stressed out Christmas crowds. It just might spark the reason for the season.

Re: Reflect yourself or wreck yourself, News (Dec. 3)

I read the piece in the Saanich News suggesting ways pedestrians can make their night walks safer and couldn’t help but notice it did not mention the single most important safety rule: Walk facing traffic!

Anthony van OschSaanich

Re: Nisga’a prove critics wrong, B.C. Views (Dec. 3)

Despite a perceived regretful tone in Tom Fletcher’s opinion piece, he seems to have had an epiphany that’s led to his urging acceptance of the Supreme Court of Canada ruling which enabled the creation by the Nisga’a First Nation of (Fletcher’s words) “a parallel state” in B.C. Not noted is that Supreme Court rulings can be, and not infrequently are, overturned.

Fletcher, unlike many of us, may never have learned “that two wrongs don’t make a right.”

The first long-standing wrong at issue is the sorry treatment of aboriginals in both B.C. and across Canada.

Despite significant improvements over recent years, more remains to be done.

The second wrong is that the Supreme Court of Canada ruling now enables a new layer of government in B.C.

What’s been created is a “landed gentry” of sorts who’ve in effect received Supreme Court authority to exercise sovereign powers, and they now plan to establish multiple export-enabling LNG terminals on the B.C. coast.

B.C. taxpayers will follow such developments with interest, particularly if there is no parallel commitment by the Nisga’a to assume increasing

responsibility for both federal and provincial government services as their “parallel state” business plans prove profitable.

The old adage that “there’s only one taxpayer” could, with Nisga’a concurrence remain a truism.

It’s based on the realization that whether for services provided by local, provincial or federal governments, most voters and elected leaders have long recognized that it’s the voting taxpayer who, over time, determines both government

funding levels and program priorities.

Unanswered questions include: Will this aboriginal “parallel state” acknowledge a responsibility to – within its anticipated capability – participate as a fully functional entity within our national federation?

Will it fund a portion of the many provincial and federal government services it now receives? Will it commit to creating and funding its self-determined unique government service programs?

Historical antipathy between First Nation, local, provincial and federal agencies indicates a need for strong but flexible leadership at all four governmental levels. In seeking a comprehensive governmental rebalancing, we’ll hopefully avoid historically based emotional rhetoric supporting retributive rationale if we’re to minimize (costly) long-term confrontational negotiations.

In B.C., our often-envied Canadian cultural mosaic is at risk of becoming a dysfunctional and tattered societal quilt.

Mammoth mindfulnessEighteen-month-old Elijah Paterson contemplates a set of 100,000-year-old woolly mammoth tusks at the Amazing Traveling Dinosaur Show, which ran Dec. 3 to 7 at Uptown Shopping Centre in Saanich. The display featured fossilized skulls of juvenile Tyrannosauras Rex and Allosaur, and allowed visitors to handle many of the fossils, such as an adult T-Rex claw and veterbra. Partial proceeds from the show were donated to the Island’s Help Fill a Dream Foundation, which assists kids with life-threatening illnesses and their families.

Can glasses weaken my eyes?There is a common misconception that wearing cor-

rective lenses weakens the eye and helps speed the de-terioration of eyesight. There is absolutely no scientific basic for this. Studies have shown no difference in the course of a person’s eyesight with or without glasses.

Sometimes it may seem as if the glasses make eye-sight weaker. Uncorrected vision may appear worse than it did before glasses. This is because vision seems much less clear without glasses after enjoying the clear vision that they provide.

We should not blame glasses for making vision worse as we age. Almost everyone develops the need for reading correction between the age of 39 and 45. This is because the focusing lens inside the eyes be-comes less flexible and glasses are required to allow us to read comfortably.

Straining your eyes and trying to force them to see without glasses will not in any way strengthen them. Actually the best way to keep eyesight at its best at any age is to get regular professional eyecare. Postpone-ment or procrastination jeopardizes comfort, efficiency and even one’s safety.

Whether it’s his passion for protecting ag-ricultural land and creating new parks, his deep commitment to Saanich’s out-

door festivals and family-friendly activities, or his careful stewardship of issues both local and regional, outgoing Saanich Mayor Frank Leon-ard will truly be missed.

Born in Vancouver in 1954, Leonard’s family lived in Richmond and Vernon before moving to Saanich in 1969. A graduate of the University of Victoria, Leonard worked the family business and managed Victoria Tire Ltd.’s three Kal Tire stores prior to his election as Mayor in 1996.

“Over the years, I’ve always admired Frank,” said Saanich Coun. Susan Brice, both a former mayor of Oak Bay and MLA.

“He’s so strategic, so highly respected, no matter where you go, provincially or with the FCM [Federation of Canadian Municipalities]. You say you’re from Saanich and people say, ‘Oh you’re lucky to have Frank.’”

Leonard’s sharp understanding of fi nances and policy has served as a “great underpin-ning” to his political career, Brice said.

“He’s always been one for making sure the fundamentals are intact, not just the showy stuff. It was with particular pride that we were able to secure the Haro Woods, Panama Flats and Blenkinsop Lake properties very much for the future legacy of Saanich,” Brice said.

“Frank has an amazing sense of responsibil-ity to Saanich.”

P rior to entering politics, Leonard served as a Director of the B.C. Chamber of Commerce, President

of the Victoria Chamber of Commerce and on the boards of local tourism and economic development groups.

Leonard’s tenure as an elected of-fi cial saw him chair the Union of B.C. Municipalities, the Municipal Finance Authority and serve as a trustee on the B.C. Municipal Pension Board.

“We’ve got a higher credit rating

than the Province of British Columbia,” Leonard liked to say with a smile while on the campaign trail earlier this year.

While he hasn’t yet decided what his next career will be, Leonard is looking forward to the next chapter in the private sector.

“Wherever he ends up, he’ll land fi rmly on his feet, I’ve no doubt,” said former Oak Bay mayor Christopher Causton, who considers Leonard a friend.

“Frank Leonard was instrumental in securing a number of major agreements with the federal and provincial gov-ernment including the Federal Gas Tax agreement that is delivering $4.3 billion to B.C. for local infrastructure. Ev-ery community in British Columbia is benefi tting from that agreement. Frank is a gifted communicator. He can get to the heart of the issue in a word or two. He shares his ideas in such a manner that everyone understands him. I would also add that he has an excellent judgment, which is why as recently as last year UBCM invited him to participate in a Select Committee on local govern-ment fi nance. Local government in B.C. will miss him.”– Sav Dhaliwal, UBCM president and Councillor, City of Burnaby

Former Oak Bay Mayor Chris Causton recalls many friendly events between the neighbouring municipalities of Oak Bay and Saanich including soccer, a centennial lawn bowling competition and the ever-popular Tea Cup Challenge.

But it’s their similarities in many respects that has helped forge a friendship between the two.

“We were both elected mayors in 1996 and have worked together, and played together, ever since,” Leonard said when Causton retired.

Causton, who was fi rst elected to Oak Bay council in 1987, one year after Leonard won of-fi ce in Saanich, said the two municipalties ben-efi t from being the same age (both incorporated in 1906) and by sharing a border. Leonard was

instrumental in creating a service agreement be-tween the two police departments, Causton said.

“It was all done on a handshake, and that’s the kind of guy Frank is,” he said. “Frank chose his time to say something and it was always on point and very well thought out. He was in many respects the go-to guy at the CRD with thought-ful comment and knowledge with a deep back-ground of issues.”

Leonard was also one of only two challengers to beat Causton during the annual Oak Bay Tea Party Tea Cup Challenge. The other winner? For-mer Olympic champion rower Silken Laumann.

“Frank beat me, but Silken whipped me,” Causton says.

Mazoy’s video backs up his passion for movie editing by splicing together catchy, engaging clips that represent his life to date, which he narrates from a chair in his room. He waited until the day before the March deadline to submit his applica-tion.

“I wanted to see what others were doing,” he says. “But … I didn’t make any additional changes.”

SMUS is now launching the same scholarship contest for its upcoming 2015-16 school year for Grades 8 through 12, and the program is already off to a successful start, says SMUS head of school Bob Snowden.

“All of the (contest) candidates under consider-ation (this year) had very good academic results, and were all fully committed in extra-curricular areas of school life,” Snowden says. “Another key element in the process was identifying the stu-dent’s capacity to be creative and to communicate well, both in writing and in person.”

Judging was extremely close, he says, and while Mazoy and his fellow winners did initially stand out, many candidates who presented themselves as sincere and articulate shone through.

The contest whittles applicants down to 30 semifinalists, with three finalists then earning a paid visit to SMUS with their parents. Those three finalists will undergo in-person interviews before a final decision is made.

As a promotion, the contest is going extremely well and helps SMUS’ brand extend its reach, Snowden says.

“We are pleased with the results, and pleased with the response in our target market. The stu-dents fit well into SMUS, and I believe they feel they have landed in the right place,” he says.

Mazoy enthusiastically admits the experience is indeed shaping up to be his best school year ever. Academically, he can’t get over the diverse number of advanced placement (collegiate level) courses available to him at SMUS. He’s currently enrolled in government and politics, and environ-mental sciences. Athletically, he finished second among his SMUS teammates at the cross-country provincials earlier this month (80th overall) and played right back for the Blue Jaguars soccer team as they won the senior boys provincial AA soccer championships last week.

“I usually get really nervous and somehow, I was totally focused in the provincial final (soc-cer game),” he said. “Last year this time, I’d never imagined that I’d be moving from (San Diego) to a boarding school in Canada where I didn’t know anyone. I’m having so much fun.”

Winning students who wish to continue attend-ing SMUS but don’t have the means to pay for tuition after their winning year can enter the school’s financial aid pool, as SMUS awards more than $2 million annually to its students.

SMUS’ Best School Year Ever contest closes Jan. 12 at midnight. For more information, visit bestschoolyearever.ca. See Mazoy’s winning entry from this year here: bit.ly/1uWWA1R.

SMUS is now launching the same scholarship contest for its upcoming 2015-16 school year for Grades 8 through 12, and the program is already off to a successful start, says SMUS head of school Bob Snowden.

“All of the (contest) candidates under consider-ation (this year) had very good academic results, and were all fully committed in extra-curricular areas of school life,” Snowden says. “Another key element in the process was identifying the stu-dent’s capacity to be creative and to communicate well, both in writing and in person.”

Judging was extremely close, he says, and while Mazoy and his fellow winners did initially stand out, many candidates who presented themselves as sincere and articulate shone through.

The contest whittles applicants down to 30 semifinalists, with three finalists then earning a paid visit to SMUS with their parents. Those three finalists will undergo in-person interviews before a final decision is made.

As a promotion, the contest is going extremely well and helps SMUS’ brand extend its reach, Snowden says.

“We are pleased with the results, and pleased with the response in our target market. The stu-dents fit well into SMUS, and I believe they feel they have landed in the right place,” he says.

Mazoy enthusiastically admits the experience is indeed shaping up to be his best school year ever. Academically, he can’t get over the diverse number of advanced placement (collegiate level) courses available to him at SMUS. He’s currently enrolled in government and politics, and environ-mental sciences. Athletically, he finished second among his SMUS teammates at the cross-country provincials earlier this month (80th overall) and played right back for the Blue Jaguars soccer team as they won the senior boys provincial AA soccer championships last week.

“I usually get really nervous and somehow, I was totally focused in the provincial final (soc-cer game),” he said. “Last year this time, I’d never imagined that I’d be moving from (San Diego) to a boarding school in Canada where I didn’t know anyone. I’m having so much fun.”

Winning students who wish to continue attend-ing SMUS but don’t have the means to pay for tuition after their winning year can enter the school’s financial aid pool, as SMUS awards more than $2 million annually to its students.

SMUS’ Best School Year Ever contest closes Jan. 12 at midnight. For more information, visit bestschoolyearever.ca. See Mazoy’s winning entry from this year here: bit.ly/1uWWA1R.

From the outset, the 2014 Mount Douglas Rams football team wasn’t the favourite to win Satur-day’s AAA B.C. football championship Subway Bowl.

But somehow, it ended up that way. If followers knew before the season started that

the Rams would lose the 2014 Subway Bowl 55-30 to the South Delta Sun Devils, the only surprise would be that the Rams’ dynasty made its fourth straight visit.

After graduating 21 players from last year’s championship team, including the entire offen-sive line, two-time AAA Player of the Year Marcus Davis, quarterback Ashton MacKinnon, stand out running back Julian Luis and more, it’s safe to say the expecations were lower for the 2014 Rams, said head coach Mark Townsend in his season ending address.

“(Our) guys exceeded expectations and upon reflection, should be tremendously proud of the accomplishments this year… I certainly am,” he said.

In 11 games this year the Rams averaged 40 points for, and averaged 13 points against.

Six players were named Conference All-Stars, Gavin Cobb, Seye Farinu, Easton Garard, Oliver MacKenzie, Byron MacKinnon and Pato Vega.

The final versus South Delta was the highest scoring in history, as the offensively gifted Sun Devils rode the momentum of their semifinal win, when they knocked off the No. 1-ranked Terry Fox Ravens. It was also a monumentous turn-around for the Sun Devils, who avenged a 44-7 loss to the Rams from earlier this season.

Longtime Ravens’ coach Tom Kudoba, whose team fell to the Rams in the 2013 Subway Bowl, likened the Rams’ current state to that of the Notre Dame Jugglers powerhouse that ruled B.C. football in the 1970s and 80s.

“It was a smaller conference then but the Rams’ had the benefit of being the only elite team in town,” Kudoba said. “What (Townsend) and his staff have done for the last few years was to become the only elite team in town, noone else had the infrastructure.”

Belmont’s coming on but from his perspec-tive, Kudoba says Mount Doug has reached a

level with Terry Fox, W.J. Mouatt (which had an off year this year) and St. Thomas More, who’re leading candi-dates every year.

“You want to get to a level where you can reload every year, which the Rams’ are at. It takes volunteer coaches who love of the sport with the expectation to get the kids to the highest level that they can,” Kudoba said.

Townsend ended his address saying the 2015 Rams will be the hard-est working high school team in B.C., “... a foot-ball team others will not want to play.”

Despite a pair of losses to the Victoria Cougars and Pen-insula Panthers last week, the Saanich Braves had a wealth of positive news to report, first and foremost, that their annual Pink in the Rink fundraiser last Friday night brought in more than $1,167.45, all of which was donated to the B.C. Cancer Foundation Victoria chapter through the Island Breaststro-kers paddling team for breast cancer research.

The Pink in the Rink game against the Panthers saw the Braves outfitted in special pink jerseys that were auctioned off during the game and presented to the winners following the final buzzer. Saanich Mayor Richard Atwell was also on hand to per-form one of his first ceremonial duties since taking office, drop-ping the puck to begin the game, along with cancer survivor Kim Lapshinoff, aunt of Braves for-ward Evan Horvath.

The seventh annual event was a huge success, even if the Pan-thers did put a damper on things by scoring four third-period goals to take a 5-2 victory over the Braves.

Looking ahead, three Braves players have been selected to

participate in the 2015 Vancou-ver Island Junior Hockey League All-Star Game in Comox on Jan. 18, Nyshan Basra, Seamus Magu-ire and Jack Rachwalski.

Basra is putting together a fine season for the Braves as the leading scorer with 15 goals and 13 assists. He has scored points in 11 of his last 13 games, includ-ing a hat-trick against Oceans-ide on Nov. 26. Maguire, who rejoined the Braves earlier this season from the Junior A Flin Flon Bombers, has six goals and five assists in 14 games. Rach-walski, a high-energy forward in his second full year with the Braves, has five goals and 10 assists in 29 games.

Meanwhile the Braves are in the bittersweet position with a trio of players enjoying success at the BCHL Junior A level this season. In particular, forward Nick Guerra will no longer be with the Braves as he signed on full-time by the Nanaimo Clip-pers and will finish the season there. Until recently, Guerra was splitting his time between the Braves and Clippers. Guerra totalled 45 points in 37 games with the Braves over the past two seasons, including nine goals and 11 assists in 17 games this year.

Hunter Atchison is hoping he can catch on in the BCHL as he is back from an extended call-up with the Trail Smoke Eaters, where he notched two goals and an assist in nine games with the team. Defenceman Connor Bir-mingham has seen action in four games this season for the Chilli-

wack Chiefs so far. With the two losses last week,

a 7-1 defeat at the hand of the Victoria Cougars last Thurs-day in addition to the Pink in the Rink loss, the Braves record moves to 8-16-0-5, fourth in the South Division.

This week the Braves are away for three road games, beginning tonight (Dec. 10) against the Westshore Wolves, 7 p.m. at The Q Centre. Next is a trip to the always tough “Brindy” on Fri-day, versus the Campbell River Storm. On Sunday the Braves complete the road trip with a game in Mill Bay against the Kerry Park Islanders, which is a make-up game from a cancella-tion in early November.

Economic activity connected to the floatplane industry accounts for about $70.1 million each year, according to the University of Victoria’s Brock Smith.

Float planes fly in $70 million for economyAndrea PeacockBlack Press

Seaplanes coming into Victoria, the Black Ball Coho Ferry and the Seattle-bound Clipper combined have a higher economic impact than the entire arts and culture sec-tor in Greater Victoria, according to a local expert.

Brock Smith, a business profes-sor at the University of Victoria, conducted a study on the economic impact of Harbour Air Seaplanes, West Coast Air and Kenmore Air in Victoria. Smith has previously done studies on the Clipper and the Coho.

Direct spending of seaplane oper-ations, such as fuel and employee expenses, and the multipliers accounts for $8 million. Spending in the city by seaplane passengers generates almost $63 million in net income. In total, the economic impact is $70.1 million, said Smith. He said about half of the seaplane passengers coming into Victoria are business travellers coming over for meetings; the other half are

tourists. On average, seaplane pas-sengers spend $272 per visit when they come to Victoria.

“But about half of them are spending very little because they’re not staying overnight, and the other half are spending quite a lot, on average close to $500 per stay,” said Smith.

Smith added that if there was a way to get day-trip passengers to stay overnight, it would generate significantly more revenue for the city. In a survey, Smith asked busi-ness travellers if they would come to Victoria even if there was no sea-plane service, and 16 per cent of them said they would not come.

Around 27,000 Harbour Air sea-planes land and take off in Victo-ria every year, said Randy Wright, executive vice-president of Har-bour Air. In addition, he said there are close to a quarter million pas-sengers every year.

“It has gone up a bit, with tour-ism being the main component of that,” Wright said. “Tourism was much better this year.”
