Canada’s 2013 U17 champion cross-country and downhill

racing cyclist, 15-year-old Mag-nus Manson, is crowd-funding his 2014 competition season. Need-ing to raise a modest $10,000 to cover travel and race expenses, he’s reaching out to his community through local and social media and the crowdfunding site indi-egogo (which will charge seven per cent of the goal amount as its fee.) A realist, Magnus notes, “If I do not reach the goal amount, I will rebuild my season based on the amount I have.”

Vancouver-born and Coast-raised, Manson began his love affair with cycling at Whistler’s Crankworx. Two years ago, with no real training and no previous race results, he entered Kamloops’ Race for the Ranch. He describes that first race as “a blur – I just re-member getting to the bottom and feeling like I’d swallowed a pane of glass.” He came first and, as the sea-son progressed, went on to win pro-vincials and the BC overall title. In 2013, his first year as U17, he raced in the expert class in the National Championships in Panorama, BC – and took home the gold.

Attending school in the evenings, training during daylight hours, and working part-time to fund his travel and competition fees as much as possible himself, Manson plans to race in the Junior category in Wash-ington (three races) and California (two races) and as a Junior Expert in eight BC Cup circuit competi-tions. “ One day I want to be up at the top of World Cup game with everyone else. I won’t be able to earn enough to cover my expenses for this season ($9,670 total); even when my parents will cover as many of my expenses as they can, there is simply no way we can do what I need to do without help! Having the support now will help my rac-ing career in the future, and having a strong season before I am able to race on the international stage is su-per important.” For more info or to contribute: http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/magnus-racingHeather Jeal

A Forest Practices Board investigation of 216 bridges constructed throughout the province in the last three years found numerous in-stances of non-compliance with legislation and over two dozen bridges that may not be safe for industrial use. Board Chair Tim Ryan noted these findings were “highly disturbing, given the emphasis government and industry have placed on safety in recent years.”

The investigation found 19 ‘obviously unsafe’ bridg-es and another 13 ‘ques-tionable’ structures. Forty per cent of the bridges did

not have complete plans and 74 bridges lacked the required professional sign-off confirming the struc-ture had been designed and built correctly.

“The problem is not the lack of legislation or guid-ance by professional asso-ciations,” said Ryan. “The problem is that some pro-fessionals are not perform-ing to the standards govern-ment and the public expect. We are recommending that the professional associa-tions that govern foresters and engineers take action to improve performance by their members. We also

suggest that licensees en-sure their bridges are safe and government compli-ance and enforcement staff increase their attention to bridge safety.”

The Forest Practices Board is BC’s independent watchdog for sound forest and range practices, report-ing its findings and recom-mendations directly to the public and government. The Board investigates and reports on current forestry and range issues and makes recommendations for im-provement to practices and legislation. Submitted

Have you seen great vol-unteer work done this year in your community? Don’t miss your chance to recog-nize an individual, group, business or not-for-profit organization – nominate them for a Prime Minis-ter’s Volunteer Award! The current call for nomina-tions is open from Febru-ary 27 to May 9, 2014.

The Prime Minister’s Volunteer Awards recog-nize the enormous contri-butions volunteers, not-for-profit organizations and businesses make to their communities.

Each year a total of 17

awards are given at the re-gional and national level. Award recipients are rec-ognized at a ceremony and can select an eligible not-for-profit organiza-tion to receive a grant for $5,000 (regional award) or $10,000 (national award).

As individuals or groups, volunteers help their com-munities in many ways, from organizing activi-ties for children with dis-abilities to fundraising for community projects.

Similarly, many business-es help their communities by organizing fundraising events or offering their em-

ployees paid time away from work to volunteer – busi-nesses play a key role in help-ing those who need it most.

Not-for-profit organiza-tions also help build stron-ger communities. In Can-ada, 161,000 registered charities and not-for-profit organizations work to im-prove the lives of others.

Read about the award categories and submit a nomination today through the Prime Minister’s Vol-unteer Awards website: www.pm.gc.ca/PMVA or call 1-877-825-0434.Submitted by John Weston, MP

Vancouver Coastal Health is launching a community consultation to gauge atti-tudes of Sunshine Coast resi-dents towards re-naming St. Mary’s Hospital in Sechelt.

“Last fall’s opening of the newly-expanded and reno-vated St. Mary’s Hospital marks an important mile-stone in the hospital’s 73-year history,” says Dr. David Ostrow, VCH president and CEO. “We see this revi-talization as an opportunity to consider the possibility of a new identity for St. Mary’s that reflects the makeup of the Sunshine Coast and those served by the facility.”

The original 1930 hospi-tal built in Garden Bay was named in recognition of St. Mary’s Anglican Church in Vancouver – which donated the hospital’s furnace. The current facility was con-structed on land donated by the Sechelt Indian Band

(SIB) in 1964 for the sum of one dollar. Over the years, the ties between the hospital and the original or-der that led to its name have tended to become more dis-tant while the ties between the SIB and the communi-ties of the Sunshine Coast have grown stronger.

“We recognize that there may be different views with-in the community about potentially changing the name of a hospital that has served them well over seven decades,” Dr. Ostrow adds. “That’s why we’re asking our partners and Sunshine Coast residents to deter-mine if there should be a new identity for St. Mary’s Hospital and what it might look like.”

An Open House will be held Monday, March 31 at the new lobby of St. Mary’s Hospital between 4 and 8 p.m. Residents are encour-

aged to drop by and share their opinions about a po-tential name change. Alter-natively, anyone wishing to contribute their thoughts can also do so in an email to [email protected].

“Ultimately the Provincial Government will have the final say in the re-naming of the St. Mary’s Hospital and we want to make sure as many voices from the Sunshine Coast as possible will be heard,” says Lauren Tindall, VCH Director of the Sunshine Coast.

VCH is responsible for the delivery of $3 billion in community, hospital and residential care to more than one million people in communities includ-ing Richmond, Vancouver, the North Shore, Sunshine Coast, Sea to Sky corridor, Powell River, Bella Bella and Bella Coola.Submitted

Although turnout at Advance Voting oppor-tunities for Sechelt’s ref-erendum on funding for the Wastewater Treatment Facility seemed to parallel that of 2011’s municipal election numbers, accord-ing to Chief Election Of-ficer Margi Nicholas, at final tally just 1,721 of the community’s 7,639 voters (22.53 per cent) answered the question “Are you in favour of District of Sech-elt Council adopting Loan AuthorizationBylaw No. 532, 2014, to authorize ac-ceptance of an alternative

source of funding compris-ing a non-repayable grant up to $1,000,000 and a loan up to$7,407,702, re-payable over 10 years at an estimated fixed interest rate of 2.25 per cent to fund a portion of the construction of the Wastewater Treat-ment Facility?” With a 15-vote margin, the initiative passed: 868 yes (50.44 per cent of voters) to 853 no (49.56 per cent). Two bal-lots were ‘undervoted,’ ac-cording to Nicholas, and 16 were spoiled by electors who requested and received replacements.

Having received this direction by the voters, Council will proceed to vote on the issue.

Sechelt Mayor John Hen-derson noted that while the turnout was below his per-sonal projection (“I figured we’d get close to 2,000”) he felt that the fact that people had showed up on such a stormy day to register their opinion was noteworthy. “It was a very complex mat-ter, and we appreciate the effort people went through to understand this issue and cast their ballots.”Heather Jeal

Proposed LNG facility ‘strange fit’

It seems a strange fit, al-lowing tankers 295m in length, 47m wide, carrying up to 180,000 cubic metres of volatile liquid natural gas (LNG), to travel with ac-companying tugs though a heavily populated and a busy industrial marine traffic area – an area where much of the population is dependent on the marine waterway for transporta-tion, business, tourism, water recreation, and daily travel. An accident could have disastrous results. I find it puzzling, this deafen-ing silence from the minis-try on the unavoidable dis-ruption by these huge ocean going tankers to our BC Fer-ries service out of Horseshoe Bay to Vancouver Island, Bowen Island, and to Lang-dale. Business, tourism, and resident travellers rely on an uninterrupted ferry sched-ule. It seems logical to me that this discussion would take place long before start-ing an environmental assess-ment on the proposed LNG Facility in Howe Sound. The Woodfiber location, ac-cessed only by water or air, presents a serious problem for an emergency response. A leak of gas reaching igni-tion could result in a hor-rific forest fire. An explosion from a LNG accident could wipe out most everything for miles. According to the Sandia Report (2006), (www.iomosaic.com/docs/tra ining/Understand_LNG_RPT.pdf ) based upon the worst case sce-nario, a flammable LNG vapour cloud could extend 7.3 miles before reaching a

source of ignition, the burn flame will continue back to the source of vapour point (fireball) with catastrophic results, and water will not extinguish the resulting fire. Yes Ministers, we have every right to be concerned for our health, our way of life, and our environment. You can’t protect us from human error, and it just takes one accident to harm so much. When will dis-cussions take place around the issues brought forward here? Will the Ferry Advi-sory Committees, and pub-lic be part of the discussion? Vel Anderson, Gibsons

Perhaps name change for church?

Henry Hightower blast The Local’s editor for point-ing out that St. Augustine’s, not St. Mary’s, was the name of the Sechelt residential school and that the commu-nity has regularly expressed its heartfelt thanks for the do-nation of the land on which St. Mary’s Hospital now stands. Hightower also insists that any and all references to saints or churches are of-fensive to First Nations sur-vivors of residential schools and should be changed as “relics of colonial past.” May I point out that Our Lady of Lourdes Church on the Sechelt Band Land is also named after St. Mary. Any “Our Lady of whatever” re-fers to the Virgin Mary; that is standard Catholic doctrine, and judging by the regular pealing of the bells, the band thus far seems to be all right with Catholic doctrine. Per-haps changing the name of its own church would be a good place to start before re-

naming public buildings that serve the whole community.Viveca Ohm, Sechelt

A whale of an opportunity

The public has been in-vited to comment on the Draft Action Plan for the Northern and Southern Res-ident Killer Whales (Orcinus orca) in BC. This should be of interest to people on the Sunshine Coast involved in ecotourism as well as parties interested in marine conser-vation and environment. It is also a chance for First Na-tions peoples to comment on the future of an animal that comprises one of their traditional totems. Although BC First Nations govern-ments were invited to com-ment on the lead-up Species at Risk Act (SARA) Recovery Strategy document on orcas, few did. This offers another opportunity for individu-als as well as governments to acknowledge this work to maintain and restore the most threatened group – the southern orcas. The deadline for public input is April 16.

The proposed Action Plan, supporting documents and an online response form can be found at www.pac.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/consultation/sara-lep/rkw-epres/index-eng.html

One does not need to have any particular credentials to comment. Input showing that Species at Risk legisla-tion is supported by measur-able public interest is very important, for the orcas as well as for DFO and SARA. This may be our last and best shot at influencing the orcas’ future outcome. Bill Bengeyfield, Pender Harbour

Weston getting ‘closer?’I notice that MP Weston

considers meeting with se-lect Coast groups in con-trolled environments to be bringing the federal govern-ment “closer.” I also notice that Weston has been firmly lined up with his Conserva-tive colleagues to stop the parliamentary committee reviewing Fair Elections Act changes from travelling and hearing Canadian concerns. Now John, direct public in-put into a most significant issue – the essence of how we are governed – would close the distance.

This is not a small matter. Outside of the Conserva-tive caucus there appears absolutely no support for these changes and, in fact, many dire warning from experts. Not the least of these is Canada’s Chief Elec-toral Officer. According to the Globe and Mail, he thinks the Fair Elections Act would: disenfranchise vot-ers; give political parties ad-vantages over others; hand them too much informa-tion; hinder the power of investigators; muzzle what the Chief Electoral Officer can say publicly.

I understand you may need advantages to secure re-election next year, but I would suggest the very es-sence of our democratic process is more important. Why in the world, given your “closer” slogan, are you part of the gang try-ing to push these changes through without full de-bate and inquiry ?Paul Johnston, Roberts Creek

Making a differenceThe most shocking part of the recent referendum vote for

funding the Sechelt Wastewater Treatment Facility was not the rancor it generated among the electorate (the vocal “yes” and “no” factions were pretty evenly matched in size and volume) but the actual voter turnout – just 22.53 per cent bothered to suit up against the elements and mark a ballot.

Mid-term votes generally don’t garner a lot of elector in-terest. A referendum requiring voters to understand the nu-ances of choosing funding options for a facility as unsexy as a wastewater treatment facility (more prosaically known as a ‘sewage treatment plant’) probably sent many electors into an information-overloaded stupor. Still. At some point, those electors must have realized the outcome of the refer-endum would impact property taxes for years to come. Tax rates impact renters as much as owners – the trickle-down costs of maintaining a property are usually passed along to the tenants. So why did so few care so little about their com-munity’s, and by extension their own, bottom line?

Just 15 votes separated the two options (with two bal-lots left blank, or ‘undervoted’). Just 868 of Sechelt’s 7,639 voters decided, on behalf of the community, to approve the borrowing option. That means Council, guided by input received from just 11.36 per cent of the electorate in favour, will embark on a major financial decision that will impact future councils, for at least the term of the loan.

This November, all communities will be electing their lo-cal government representatives – this time, for a term of four years. Sechelt’s referendum should be a lesson in the importance of the democratic process that all should take to heart. Every ballot not cast makes a difference, and every vote counts. Make sure yours will be one of them. Heather Jeal, Editor

You can’t avoid them: they’re in Gibsons, Roberts Creek, even Sechelt. We don’t mean artists, Relic look-alikes, or ferry protestors. We’re talking HILLS. Unless you’re willing to loop endlessly on a mile-long stretch, you’re going to encounter some while running here. The Fool’s Run course is no exception. How do you prepare for race day so you can tackle the hills with zest and enthusiasm, or at least without slowing to a walk and crying in despair? A little hill training is the answer. Try one of these once a week: 1) choose a rolling course and attack the middle hills; OR 2) warm up, run uphill for 90 seconds, jog back down, repeat 4-6 times, warm down.

Makers – craftspeople, art-ists, tinkerers, inventors and hackers – use their ingenuity and a blend of new and old technologies to create func-tional, funky or just beauti-ful objects. Advances in new materials, 3D modelling, and 3D printing have made it possible for almost any-body to turn an idea into an object in the real world.

Coast Makers is a group that wants to share knowledge of new and old technologies and learn new skills. They are holding their first public meet-up on Thursday, March 20 at 7 p.m. at the Sechelt Youth

Centre (5538 Shorncliffe, Sechelt). People of all ages and interests are welcome.

One of the materials on hand will be ‘instamorph,’ a medical plastic used to make replacement bones. It can be dipped in boiling water and then shaped. It hardens when cool, but will reshape again when heated, which makes it an ideal medium for sculpture.

Hunter previews The World Before UsVancouver novelist Ais-

linn Hunter will offer Coast audiences the first-ever sneak preview of her second novel, The World Before Us (subject of a ‘six-figure’ deal for US publishing rights) at the Sunshine Coast Arts Centre, corner of Trail and Medusa, Sechelt at 8 p.m. on Friday, March 21. Ad-mission is by donation, courtesy of the Canada Council.

Hunter’s versatile talent was recognized from the be-ginning when her first book of poetry, Into the Early

Hours (2001), won the Ger-ald Lampert Award and was short-listed for the Dorothy Livesay Poetry Prize. The same year, her short fiction, What’s Left Us, described as “a stunning fiction debut” was also short-listed for prestigious awards, as all of her books have been. Her Stay (2002) was an extraor-dinarily mature, well-craft-ed first novel and a finalist for the Books in Canada/Amazon First Novel Award. Stay has an Irish setting, and a film version produced in Ireland premiered at the To-

ronto Film Festival last fall.Hunter’s second novel,

The World Before Us, set in a museum in contemporary London and in a northern asylum, will not appear until September, but it has already been the subject of a deal be-tween Doubleday Canada and Hogarth Press for the U.S. publishing rights.

In recognition of World Water Day this week, the Green Film Series screens the award-winning feature documentary, Watermark, at the Gibsons Heritage Playhouse on Monday, March 17 at 7:30 p.m. Ad-mission is $10 ($8 for SC Film Society members).

Watermark braids diverse stories from around the globe about our relation-ship with water: how we are drawn to it, what we learn from it, how we use it and the consequences of that use. We see massive floating abalone farms off China’s Fujian coast and the con-struction site of the biggest arch dam in the world – the Xiluodu, six times the size of the Hoover. We visit the barren desert delta where the mighty Colorado River no longer reaches the ocean, and the water-intensive leather tanneries of Dhaka. We speak with scientists who drill ice cores two kilometers deep into the Greenland Ice Sheet, and roam the sub-lime pristine watersheds of Northern British Columbia.

In Watermark, the viewer is immersed in a world defined by a magnificent force of na-ture that we all too often take for granted – until it’s gone. Information and a discus-sion of local water issues such as logging in the watersheds and the new Community Forest watershed assessment report, the Gibsons aqui-fer and the proposed Howe Sound LNG plant will fol-low the screening.

Voted Best Canadian Film, 2013, by the Toronto Film Critics Association, the stunning ultra high defini-tion and soaring aerial per-spectives show water’s ter-raforming qualities and the scale of its reach, as well as the magnitude of our need and use. The film is directed by award-winning film-maker Jennifer Baichwal

Watermark screening marks World Water Day

and renowned photographer Edward Burtynsky, and is the third part of Burtynsky’s Water project. Three years in the making, it was filmed and produced by Nicholas de Pencier.

The Green Film Series is dedicated to using film as a catalyst for dialogue,

networking and action in community engagement on environmental and sus-tainability issues and is produced by Rhizome Up! Media. For more informa-tion or to purchase tickets or reserve seats go to: www.greenfilms.ca. Submitted

Looking for lasagna all over the CoastAunt Adeline made

the best lasagna, using a deeply-buried family se-cret recipe we were sworn to protect and never, ever share with outsiders. But for a chance to win a $100 IGA gift certificate, we might be tempted…

Lasagna is a deeply per-sonal dish, lending itself to endless regional varia-

tions and signature flour-ishes, including vegetar-ian, Mornay, Bolognese and Alfredo sauces. How personal can this simple noodle dish be? A memo-rable episode of HBO’s The Sopranos featured a recently-bereaved Mafioso raving over his new girl-friend, Janet’s version with “whole basil leaves un-der the cheese layer.” His confederate looked at him strangely. “Basil under the cheese? That’s Carmela’s recipe!” A pause for the horror of this vandalism to sink in. “She stole Car-mela’s lasagna!”

In March, IGA and The Local team up on a Quest for the Best lasagna. The winning recipe will ap-pear in the April 10 issue, and available for take-out from the IGA delis in Gib-sons, Wilson Creek and Madeira Park throughout the month. Recipes may be submitted in person at any IGA Customer Ser-vice desk on the Coast, or emailed to sales@thelocal weekly.caBuon appetito!Heather Jeal

Volunteers desperately

needed!

When a project like the proposed George Hotel and Residences is being consid-ered by the Town, process is very important. Coun-cil and the public are both looking to see that proper process is followed. Because the process to review devel-opment in our town is ex-tensive, further information about the process itself may prove useful to readers.

The Town of Gibsons has in place policies, guidelines and requirements that give direction to what type of development is envisioned for the Town. Zoning Bylaw Amendments and Develop-ment Permit Applications need to fit OCP policies and guidelines. This sometimes involves consultation with third party experts to ensure the best information is avail-able when it comes time to make decisions. If you own

Town’s process ensures all input will be heard, consideredTalk of The Town

Wayne Rowe Mayor, Town of Gibsons

property in Gibsons, and have applied to develop it, you may be familiar with these requirements. Prop-erty owners have the right to request a permit to de-velop their property, and we, as Council, have an obligation to consider such requests and to ensure they are compliant with our re-quirements.

In the case of the George, the developer has provided documentation to support the development applica-tion, and the Town is now in the process of review-ing that documentation. At times, the matter being discussed requires an even greater level of review, above what is typically required. As an example, out of an abundance of caution, the Town of Gib-sons has asked both an independent geotechnical expert and an independent hydrogeologist to conduct additional reviews, with the cost of both these re-views to be covered by the applicant.

The significant pub-

lic interest in this project has led to a large volume of inquiries and submis-sions from local residents; the Town has a process in place to ensure all input received is acknowledged, and considered by staff and Council.

This is a complex project requiring analysis in many areas. Staff will be bring-ing forward several reports addressing those areas with the next report anticipated for the March 25 meeting. This will include a report on the building’s proposed form and character, afford-able housing and commu-nity amenities, and also, if it has been completed by that date, a report address-ing the aquifer.

The ultimate decision regarding project approval will be made by your elect-ed officials, based on the best interests of the Town of Gibsons. In the mean-time, I encourage each of you to attend public meet-ings as you are able, and to consult our website for regular updates.

In 1914 the Howe Sound Farmers Institute made ap-plication to the Provincial Library Commission to participate in the rural lend-ing library service. Their ap-plication was successful and they soon received their first shipment of books, housed in a large wooden box, with a hinged lid.

This was the humble start of the Gibsons and District Public Library, which cel-ebrates its one hundredth birthday this year. The first actual library building was built in 1955, on the site now occupied by the Sun-shine Coast Museum and Archives. It was a project of the newly formed Kiwanis Club and partially financed through the door-to-door sale of peanuts.

In 1996 the present building on South Fletcher overlooking Gibsons Har-bour opened – a long way from the box of books. Last year 179,151 items were cir-culated, including e-books, audio books and DVDs. AWe now have a member-ship of 6,722 and in 2013 they made 95,414 in-per-son visits. The Howe Sound Farmers Institute would be amazed.

Library began with hinged box, financed by peanutsIn this, our centennial

year, we will acknowledge our past, celebrate our pres-ent and look to the future of our library.

The arrival of warmer weather heralds the home improvement season, as homeowners prep their liv-ing spaces for comfort, beau-ty and entertaining opportu-nities. While there are many worthy projects to pursue, adding outdoor lighting to a home can help increase its value and make the home safer and more attractive in the evening hours.

Adding outdoor lighting is easier and less expensive than one might expect, transforming an existing patio, deck or pool area into an enjoyable night-time retreat. Pool parties, dinners on the patio or

Lighting sets the stage for outdoor fun barbecues with neighbors become even more memo-rable when outdoor light-ing is added or improved. When installing or upgrad-ing outdoor lighting, con-sider the following tips.

Improve navigation. Lighting is typically lay-ered into a room or out-door space in three ways: overhead, task and am-bient. Even outdoors, where there are no typical boundaries and borders, those three layers are nec-essary. Outdoor overhead lighting should improve visibility on steps, paths and walking surfaces, es-pecially where there’s a bend or an intersection. Task lighting can be used around cooking or garden-ing areas. Ambient light will cast a comforting glow around any outdoor space.

Enhance security. To improve visibility and se-curity, combine a motion detector with a sconce to illuminate dark corners or entryways. Be sure to aim lights away from the door to improve visibility. Lan-terns on either side of the door can give a home a

warm, welcoming appear-ance and improve the safety of entryways.

Create outdoor rooms. Outdoor lighting at the borders of a space is a great way to create bar-riers, both vertically and horizontally. Lights in a tree create something akin to a chandelier hung in the middle of the sky, and even accent lights in the general area of the edge of a patio, deck or porch will shine across the space and provide enough of a com-fort level for people to un-derstand where things are.

Reduce glare. Outdoor lighting that casts a glare can be blinding, as can light that’s too bright. Lighting along paths should be cast downward, with fixtures that are hooded. A variety of lighting options will cre-ate layers, allowing you to add or subtract as necessary. Exterior-safe dimmers also can provide flexible control over the level of light, as can movable fixtures added to a patio or porch.

Add decorative elements. Just as arbors, pergolas, pa-tios and other outdoor ele-

ments help to enhance the style of an outdoor space, so, too, can lighting con-tribute to a well-designed landscape. Lighting should play up decorative features of a yard and add the am-bience that homeowners desire. Step lights make passage safe while also highlighting molding or trim details. An outdoor chandelier can make for a wonderful accent during dinnertime on the deck or under a pergola. Patio lights provide atmosphere as well as illumination for cooking outside.

Enhance views from in-side. Outdoor lighting can make the view from inside pleasant and enjoyable. Use a variety of lights, including spotlights on trees, lights dotted along pathways and accent lights on unique landscape features, to create an idyllic landscape visible from inside the home.

Outdoor lighting enhanc-es functionality of yards and landscapes while making such areas safer for home-owners and their guests once the sun has gone down. Metro

March is Nutrition Month and the Cana-dian Diabetes Association (CDA) is offering infor-mation about healthy liv-ing in a series of free webi-nars packed with relevant and up-to-date informa-tion not only for people living with type 1 and type 2 diabetes – but also for anyone interested in a healthy lifestyle.

Thursday, March 13 at 6:00 p.m., registered dieti-tian and certified diabetes educator (CDE) Barbara Allan present A-Salt with a Deadly Weapon. “There is so much hype about salt and sodium that it’s sometimes hard to know what to be-lieve,” says Allan. “Through my webinar, I’ll speak to the value of sodium in every-day health and nutrition; the role that sodium has on blood pressure control; and discuss why reducing sodium may be important with some practical sugges-tions.” Individuals can sign

up at no cost to attend A-Salt with a Deadly Weapon or any of the available we-binars running until August 2014, with topics ranging from kids, food and nutri-tion to health, travel, foot care, and more.

The CDA has worked diligently to create a high-ly-informative and engag-ing series, which feature CKNW producer Jessica Gares, experienced diabetes educators, health profes-sionals and other knowl-edgeable speakers. “Our webinars will provide peo-ple with type 1 and type 2 diabetes free professional information, facilitated dis-cussion and a new way to connect with others in the diabetes community,” says Leanne Morgan, senior manager, community pro-grams and partnerships (BC and Yukon) at the Canadian Diabetes Asso-ciation. “We hope to reach a diversified audience and serve residents in city, ru-

ral and even remote com-munities. Individuals can participate in our webinars in the convenience of their own home or any computer or in group settings.” To register and for further in-formation on A-Salt with a Deadly Weapon, visit dia-betes.ca/webinar. These we-binar series are funded by an unrestricted educational grant from Lilly. Other diabetes webinars occurring in March include: Type 1 Diabetes Webinar: Vari-ables - Managing Activity, Diet, Blood Sugar, Stress and More Date: Thurs., March 13, 2014 Time: 7:00 to 8:00 p.m. MST (Moun-tain Time) To register or for more information, visit: diabetes.ca/diabetes-webi-nars Type 2 Diabetes Webi-nar: Eating Well Date: Wed., March 26, 2014 Time: 7:00 to 8:00 p.m. CST (Central Time) To register or for more information, visit: di abetes.ca/diabetes-webinarsSubmitted

The Government of British Columbia recent-ly tabled legislation that will ensure WorkSafeBC recognizes heart disease in firefighters –includ-ing forest firefighters – as ‘presumptive,’ meaning if a firefighter suffers from heart disease, heart injury, or a heart attack it will be presumed to be due to their work as a firefight-er unless the contrary is proved. The presumptions will apply if the claimant was employed as a fire-fighter at or immediately before the date of disable-ment from heart injury or disease. This legislation will thus support firefight-ers in receiving workers’

compensation should they suffer from heart disease or heart injury as a result of their work.

Shirley Bond, Minis-ter of Jobs, Tourism and Skills Training and Minis-ter Responsible for Labour stated, “Our government appreciates the vitally important work that fire-fighters do for the people of our province. Firefight-ers expose themselves to significant hazards, and we want to provide fur-ther protection for these men and women who help to keep our communities safe by recognizing heart disease and heart injury as presumptive diseases.”

Michael Hurley, Presi-

dent of the BC Professional Firefighters Association added, “The heat and men-tal stressors faced by the profession means that heart injuries due to the nature of the job are a reality for firefighters. We have always known that when we go to work our health is at risk. Having heart presump-tion restored is so impor-tant to firefighters because it means that while we are fighting to save our own lives we will not have the added stress of fighting a WorkSafeBC claim at the same time. This will allow a firefighter to concentrate on what he or she needs to, which is a full recovery.”Submitted

WorkSafeBC to include heart disease as ‘presumptive’ for firefighters

A recent outbreak of measles, with upwards of 100 cases reported among unvaccinated children liv-ing in the Fraser East com-munities of Abbotsford, Mission, Chilliwack, and Agassiz prompted medical authorities to issue a warn-ing to parents throughout BC about the dangers of this highly contagious virus.

Symptoms include fever, cough, red and inflamed eyes, and rash on the face and neck. Complications can include pneumonia,

brain damage, blindness and deafness. Approximate-ly one in 3,000 cases is fatal.

Fraser Health is advising individuals who may have been exposed to the virus to refrain from travelling dur-ing Spring Break until they have been cleared by Public Health. Relatively low im-munization rates in some parts of Fraser East have led to several clusters of the virus in previous years; the most recent being in the Fall of 2013. The most effective protection against the virus

is two doses of the immu-novirus vaccine which is free to all those born in or after 1957. Residents are encour-aged to contact their regular health provider to receive the vaccination. If residents sus-pect they have been exposed or have developed symp-toms, they should see their medical practitioner and notify the medical practitio-ner’s office before arriving in order to prevent the spread of the disease to others at the clinic.Submitted

Tip of the Week:The last official days of the

season signal a time to re-flect, in the light of the Full Moon (March 16). Mer-cury is in the final days of its shadow period during which time it recovers ground lost while retrograde. Confused thoughts, perceptions and communications and dis-ruptions with technology are some of the main issues that synchronize with this cycle. Now Mercury will re-enter Pisces (March 17 - April 7), one of its more challenging sign positions. This transit has been compared to trying to communicate underwa-ter. Well, that is a bit exag-gerated but pay attention to see the synchronicities. So it could feel like Mercury is still retrograde until April 7 when it enters Aries. Posi-tively, it can prove useful for imaginative thinking but can be a deterrent to practi-cal productivity.

Mars, then Saturn, turned retrograde on March 1 and 2 respectively. Mars has been in very close conjunc-tion with the Moon`s North Node in Libra ever since mid-February. This brings the ‘iron fist, velvet glove’ theme resonant with Libra to the fore. Coupled with Uranus in Aries, the sign Mars rules, which presents an unpredictable and poten-tially violent theme pattern, it is not surprising that we are seeing the synchronicity in the uprisings in Kiev and then the Russian military presence in other parts of the Ukraine thereafter. That energy pattern is bound to manifest somehow and

somewhere and in a big way and the basic themes of military muscle maneuvers is bound to continue.

As for Saturn in Scorpio (Oct. 2012 – Sept. 2015), this cycle can basically be described as metamorphic. Yes, the world is changing deeply and quickly. When retrograde the plot thickens and deepens as it activates a determined search of mean-ing and truths that tran-scend outer realities and ap-pearances. Outwardly this aspect can produce fixed attitudes and a crusading spirit… Stay tuned!

Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)If you feel the need for and

have any opportunity to get some extra rest or retreat this week, take it. With spring just a week away you will feel a new surge of energy begin to emerge. This week is probably best used to re-charge. Quality time shared with friends might suffice. A solo and silent retreat that would allow you to contem-plate, reflect and re-center is your best bet.Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

Whatever else you have done up to now or achieved, in certain respects you have been preparing the ground to implement plans that have been brewing for a long time. Over the com-ing months especially your will, drive and ambition will increase. Set clear boundar-ies, do not over give or over commit to others or ask or expect too much from them. Just do it!Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)Whether you want, need,

like it or not, you are get-ting extra attention now. All being well you want it and the time is also right to ask for recognition, favours and earned rewards. You are fi-nally rising out of what may have felt like a foggy period. Now your visions and aspira-tions to realize a brighter fu-ture are coming to full force. Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22)A rather deep cycle contin-

ues. At best, you are heeding the call to restore your faith and vigour. This is a good time to listen more and speak less. You may feel needier than usual, more than you have for quite some time. Tending to home projects, hobbies, renovations and/or early spring cleaning may be just what you need.

Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23)Tending to some of the

deeper aspects of life con-tinues. This includes rich exchanges of dialogue where realizations are shared. These have been brewing for many months, perhaps even years. Your ability to express your thoughts and feelings well enough so others understand

you may require extra effort. Ask questions and invite feedback for best results.

Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)Engaging with others in

deep and meaningful ways is a likely theme of late. You mind focus is sharp and you are able to articulate your feelings more clearly. Un-less your attitude is to share, give and serve with your thoughts and ideas versus tell in a merely factual man-ner, your communications will likely miss the mark. Aim to build rapport.

Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)Mixing work with play

does have its merits some times, like now. For you play may mean socializing and/or engaging in creative and artistic activity. You may feel impatient with people and circumstances however, so make extra efforts to trust in and cooperate with the flow. At deeper levels, tending to your health and the related quality of your lifestyle is ex-tra important.Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)

Your current focus is lin-gering somewhere between a creative review of past experiences and plans and ambitions for future action. Clearing, cleaning and set-tling unfinished business is likely. Creating a new work-ing space is featured and may include mental and emo-tional states as much as shifts in the outer environment. Expect it to take a couple of weeks or so to catch up.Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)

Reconnecting within to rediscover what you think, feel and believe continues. This includes deepening bonds with family. A lively time interacting with friends is also featured. Exchanges of thoughts and feelings regard-ing future plans are high-lighted. These may still be in the dream stage. Good ideas will be conceived. Pay atten-tion and take note.Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)

A philosophical and re-flective cycle continues. A deepened search for truth, meaning, purpose or at least for answers is featured. This trend will continue for a few weeks. Part of this quest in-cludes a review and cultiva-tion of your own talents and the prospects of accessing the skills and resources of others. But you may have to widen your scope to get what you need.Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)

Some new developments have begun amidst the completion phase of others. You may still be contending with lingering uncertain-ties. You may get the feeling that spring is delayed. This could produce frustrations. By mid-April latest you will

enter a dynamic learning curve. Accept that this is all a foundation building phase which stands to stretch into early May.Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)The feeling of spring thaw

may be arriving early for you. You may wish the pace was slower. Yet, your ability to focus, manifest and get things done may feel slower these days so this early start can be seen to have advan-tages. Meanwhile, increasing your outreach to cooperate and collaborate with others is important and the timing looks good.
