It’s no secret that Boitanio Park in the heart of Williams Lake is a busy spot for the RCMP.

Alcoholfactor in accident
Alcohol is believed to be a fac-tor in a single vehicle accident in the 300 block of Mackenzie Ave-nue South that took place around 12:30 a.m. on Nov. 13.
While the cause of the acci-dent has not been determined, Williams Lake RCMP Inspec-tor Warren Brown said one adult male driver was taken to Cariboo Memorial Hospital for minor in-juries, and two power poles on the side of the road were mowed down causing a power outage.

alternate solutions needed
“What I underlined at the meeting was that we didn’t want to deter any people from the park, but rather the behaviour. We want to deter behaviour such as fighting, distur-bances, and people so intoxicated that they are unconscious and unable to care for themselves,” Brown explained.
At the end of the meet-ing it was decided to follow-up with a second meeting in early Decem-ber to develop some short term and long term goals to ensure people are safe and people are receiving the help they need.
“To come up with some compassionate care and understanding because at the end of the day I don’t think this is solely a police respon-
sibility. The traditional response today has been for the RCMP to provide that overwatch in the park and I’m asking now for the community and the stakeholders to come up with some alternate solutions and alternate help,” Brown said.
The issues in the park have been existent for decades, and are a symp-tom of what ails Williams Lake, Brown added.
Three years after his son Tyler’s disappear-ance in Williams Lake, Ken Walton is still offer-ing a $25,000 reward.
The last time Walton saw Tyler was on Nov. 9, 2009.
“I’m sure there’s someone in this com-munity that has some knowledge about what happened to Tyler,” Wal-ton said during an inter-view. “The last time I saw him, he visited me at my house. He’d brought over his compost for my garden.”
Tyler moved back to Williams Lake from Vancouver in the spring of 2009. His father de-scribed him as upbeat, positive, intelligent, and wanting to be an entre-preneur.
“He didn’t like work-ing for people, he wanted to work for himself. And
he wanted to be a philan-thropist. Whenever he made money, a percent-age went into a jar, and it went to wherever he donated it to.”
If he was interested in something, Tyler re-searched it. He encour-aged people around him, and was normally very positive.
“The last time I saw him though, he was to-tally out of character. He seemed very bitter and very down on people,” Walton said.
About a week before he went missing, Tyler had been attacked while riding a bike in the Glen-dale area. It was a “knock him out fight” and at-tempted robbery that re-ally shook him, his dad recalled.
“Somebody out there in this community has to know what happened to Tyler. We have our sus-picions. I think he was naive and got into some-thing over his head that
he shouldn’t have.”At the time of his dis-
appearance Tyler was 26 years old and weighed 145 pounds. He was 5’ 11’, wore his hair at me-dium length and normal-ly had a full beard.
To help solve the case, the Williams Lake RCMP has developed a
website —www.tyler-walton.ca — that will be launched on Nov. 18, the anniversary of when Ty-ler’s disappearance was reported to the RCMP.
“The hope is that we can do ongoing updates and leads we’re follow-ing, and new information that the public may be
able to help us rout out. The one piece that we’re working on right now is that he was seen with two fellows the day of his disappearance. We’re wondering who are these people because we’d like to speak to them,” said Cpl. Jason Pole of the Williams Lake RCMP general investigation section.
It could be something as benign as a couple of friends of Tyler’s that were hanging around with him that day, yet the RCMP is hoping to jog some memories.
“That’s one line we’re working on right now and we’re expecting more will come up once we go to this public ap-peal,” Pole said, adding there will always be a very small portion of useful tips, because there is often lots of “noise” to sift through.
The problem with a public appeal, Pole said, is it creates a lot of work
for investigators sifting through “good tips” and “bad tips” and if it’s a “bad tip” why.
“If you end up in a situation where you have to take something to court, then you have to be able to explain why you didn’t think some-thing was valid and why. Nonetheless, we’d ex-pect there’s probably go-ing to be more lines of in-quiry opened up because of the website and we may again need more as-sistance from the public to move those forward.”
Keeping Tyler’s dis-appearance in the fore-front of people’s minds is the main hope for the website, he emphasized.
“We’re looking at the fact that three years have gone by now. People’s memories are starting to fade so collectively, hopefully, we can answer some questions about critical details,” Pole said.
“Anonymous tips
have come in suggesting that there was foul play involved and certainly anybody that looks at the file over the time period and knows Tyler would probably be leaning to-wards that something has befallen him that’s keeping him from mak-ing contact. I don’t see him disappearing off the face of the earth without letting somebody know something. From what I’ve seen, he values his relationships too much, and would feel terrible if they were left wonder-ing like they have been,” Pole said, adding there’s not enough information to say one way or the other.
Tyler was an out-doorsy guy, but seemed to be very good at telling people where he was go-ing.

Community forest application contested
Small rural communi-ties in the Cariboo have contested a proposed Community Forest Agreement application made by the city of Wil-liams Lake and the Wil-liams Lake Indian Band.
Residents from the communities of Big Lake, Miocene and Horsefly said the appli-cation goes against the spirit and intent of the law around community forests.
While supporting the concept of a commu-nity forest in principle, and the Williams Lake Indian Band’s seeking to acquire an area-based tenure, the rural com-munities said the fact the proposed boundary of one of the proposed blocks for the CFA sur-rounds Big Lake right up to the school playground
is a concern.“Our communities
could support a proposal that includes the city of Williams Lake if the area they were proposing was nearer to their commu-nity or included the rural communities as partners in the proposal,” David Zirnhelt, representative for Big Lake and a for-mer Minister of Forests said in an interview.
The north block, Po-tato Mountain Block, is east of Williams Lake. Spanning 22,912 hect-are, the block covers an area between the Likely and Horsefly roads, from Potato Mountain eastward and to Beaver Valley in the north.
When Zirnhelt was the forest minister and brought in the legisla-tion for community for-ests, the government did not define what a com-munity was in the act because it was thought
it was best for commu-nities to define that for themselves.
“It was never contem-plated that you would have a community like Williams Lake defining their community over-top of something like Big Lake, Miocene, and Horsefly,” Zirnhelt said.
On Nov. 13, the rural communities emailed a letter to Minister of For-ests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations Steve Thomson, pro-testing the application. Their letter also included a petition with 80 signa-tures.
The letter suggested a collaborative applica-tion, that includes the three rural communities, Williams Lake and the Williams Lake Indian Band.
“We could submit a modified proposal which either brings our communities in as full
partners or creates space for area-based tenure applications submitted separately by our com-munities,” the letter noted.
In 2006, the com-munity of Big Lake re-quested a community forest and heard then there was no available cut, Zirnhelt said.
“The proponents are fully aware that we have an interest in acquiring our own much smaller Community Forest and continue to support the placement of more Woodlots in rural areas. However, the propo-nents have been unwill-ing to include the rural communities as partners or adjust their boundar-ies to ensure they don’t preclude area-based for-est tenure opportunities for our communities.”

Enlarging CFA not possible
Zirnhelt said they haven’t calculated how large the cuts would be in those relative areas of interest, but said the communities could go it alone or go at it to-gether.
The experience with people who have woodlots is that they can keep their adminis-trative costs down and still make a good dol-lar and respond to other values on the land base.
For a community forest to succeed, the proponents need a so-cial license from the surrounding communi-ties and people in those communities, and at this point that does not
exist, Zirhnhelt said.“They don’t have
that. They have not sought it and they re-sisted it. When they came out to Big Lake hall with their show and tell a year ago, they didn’t even want to meet with the commu-nity and explain it, they just wanted one on one. Well, when you have 70 people in the room and four consultants, how much time does anybody get? What’s wrong with a commu-nity discussion? There was a unanimous reso-lution at the time that one of the conditions of any support would be some ownership of the license, meaning in a legal sense that we have some stake and
some definite say.”In a press release is-
sued on Oct. 26 about the CFA application,the city and the band noted they understand that people living near the community forest are interested in the man-agement of the forest and the benefits de-rived from it.
The two parties not-ed the application in-cludes several ways of sharing those benefits: the creation of a com-munity council will provide opportunities to gather input on the goals and activities of management for the community forest area, work will be available to local individuals and companies through a contract tendering pro-
cess, the community forest will purchase goods and services (e.g. search and rescue, firefighting, commu-nity hall rental) from communities and the creation of a commu-nity fund to support grants to community groups and projects.
The Ministry of For-ests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations said Nov. 14 there is not an opportunity to make the area for the community forest larg-er.
“The area was cho-sen since it was close to Williams Lake, could support an annual al-lowable cut of 40,000 cubic metres and was not otherwise encum-bered. I also under-
stand that the City and Williams Lake Indian Band have offered to put revenue from the community forest into a fund that would be available for any com-munity in the regional district to apply to, and that the city and Wil-liams Lake Indian Band have created a commu-nity council that would provide direct input into the management of the community for-est,” Minister Thom-son’s office noted in an emailed response.
His office also con-firmed Thomson is in the process of respond-ing to the letter, but because of the volume of correspondence he receives, it takes two to three weeks to respond.
The Remembrance Day weekend kept Wil-liams Lake RCMP busy with more than 100 calls for service, rang-ing from break-ins to hit and runs. In a press release issued Nov. 13, the RCMP highlighted some of the calls.
Nov. 9At 5:44 a.m. Wil-
liams Lake RCMP was dispatched to an alarm activation at CP Elec-tronic at 298 2nd Ave N. Owner of the busi-ness attended as well. The overhead door to the property was pushed in causing damage to the door to the point that entry could have been gained. The build-ing was cleared and it appeared that nothing inside was disturbed or stolen. Video surveil-lance of business to be examined to deter-mine if anything was taken and a description of the vehicle and sus-pects that damaged the door. The incident is still under investigation.
Nov. 10A Cartwright Drive
resident reported at ap-proximately 8:23 a.m. to police that a vehicle had rolled into his house, causing damage. The parties involved were known to each other and the incident was a
continuation of a previ-ous altercation that oc-curred. The matter is still under investigation.
At about 2:50 p.m. police attended at the Chevron Gas Station on Hwy 97 and Oli-ver where a counterfeit $5 Canadian bill was seized. The currency was confirmed as coun-terfeit and taken out of circulation. Investiga-tion continuing.
While conducting a road check on Hwy 20 at Cotton Rd. around 2:50 p.m., police checked an eastbound pick-up truck and noted that the driver had been hunting. Police located three firearms in the truck. All were legal and being transported safely, however the driver did not have a Possession/Acquisition Firearms Licence (PAL). Con-sequently the firearms were seized and the mat-ter is still under investi-gation.
Nov. 11At 8:59 a.m. police
responded to a residence on Pigeon Ave. when a resident reported that the passenger side win-dow was smashed out of her 2009 blue Honda Odyssey while parked in her driveway. Noth-ing appeared to have been taken, although a
pair of sunglasses that were in the vehicle that had been removed were found outside the ve-hicle. No suspects have been identified..
Police responded to a complaint on Ogden Street that the passenger side window was broken on a green 1995 Honda Civic parked at the cor-ner of Pigeon Ave and Ogden. It appeared as if someone broke the win-dow and went through the glove compartment and centre console. Po-lice spoke to the owner who stated that he drove by his vehicle at 3:30 a.m. in the morning and it was OK. The own-er confirmed the CD player in his vehicle had been stolen. It is valued at approximately $100.00. No suspects have been identified and the matter is still under investigation.
At 1:50 p.m. police attended a residence on Slater Street after a complainant called to report that his friend’s 2006 Grey Chev pickup had been broken into overnight and the driv-er’s side window was broken. A hole approxi-mately eight inches was through the window and the glass was still in the window. Three or four DVDs were taken from
the vehicle. No suspects have been identified.
Police responded to a hit and run MVI at ap-proximately 7:28 p.m. on South Lakeside Drive and Hodgson Rd. Po-lice attended and spoke to the complainant, who stated that she was driving south on South Lakeside Dr. in her ve-hicle with her two-year-old and was sideswiped by possibly a Ford Ex-plorer as it merged onto South Lakeside Dr. be-side her. The passenger mirror on the complain-ant’s vehicle was broken off and there was a large scrape down the passen-ger side. Anyone who may have witnessed the incident is asked to con-tact the Williams Lake RCMP Detachment.
At approximately 10:49 p.m. the RCMP received a complaint from the owner of a vehicle that his car was parked at the Sxoxomic School Alkali, where he was playing volley-ball. When he returned to it he observed all four windows on all four doors had been smashed. It did not ap-pear that anything had been taken. No suspects were identified. Any-one with information is asked to contact the Wil-liams Lake RCMP.
The RCMP were dis-patched at 11:29 p.m. to assist the fire department on Horsefly Rd. with a fire where a shed was fully engulfed in flames. While suppressing the fire, fire department members discovered a marijuana grow opera-tion. A further search of the property revealed two other buildings had marijuana in them. The marijuana plants were seized and the property owner placed under ar-rest. The matter is still under investigation.
Nov. 12The RCMP received
a complaint at approxi-mately 1:11 a.m. of a theft from motor vehicle parked at a residence on Dairy Road. Police at-tended and spoke to the owner who stated that he’d heard a noise and saw a male dressed all in black on the sidewalk. When the owner went to check on the vehicle, he observed that the left sliding door was open, anAlpine Stereo deck was missing and the vehicle had been rum-maged through. No sus-pects were identified.
At 11:03 a.m. police responded to a resi-dence on South Lake-side Drive, where a neighbour complained that a group of people
were outside a residence swearing, yelling and threatening to kill one another. The follow-up investigation by police revealed that all parties were known to each other and that the inci-dent was precipitated by an assault that resulted in one of the parties at-tempting to assault the other with a hatchet. A third party, also with the group, intervened and was able to get the hatchet and prevent an assault. The matter is still under investigation and charges are pend-ing.
At 9:50 p.m. police attended at McDon-
alds Restaurant on 1323 Broadway Ave. South to a report that there was a male who had walked through the drive-through to get a cheese-burger because he was trying to avoid the po-lice who were in the res-taurant. The suspect was located outside in the parking lot and arrested. The suspect was found to be in violation of a curfew order, his breath smelled heavily of li-quor and he was in pos-session of two bottles of liquor and weapon dan-gerous to the public. He was taken into custody and charges are pend-ing.

WEEKLY
MORTGAGE MESSAGELook Beyond the Rate!
With interest rates as low as they are these days it’s easy to get caught up in the idea that rate is the only thing that matters. You want the best bang for your mortgage buck and that’s got you comparing mortgage rates day and night!
But also consider the following:
What’s your long term plan?
Are you purchasing a home that you plan to stay in for 5 or more years? Or do you want a ‘project house’ that you can renovate and sell in 2 years? If you’re in it for the long haul then a 5-10 year term makes sense for you. However, if you choose a 5 year term but are planning on selling in 2 years, you’re going to pay a hefty penalty to the lender to get out 3 years early. Ouch!
Will you make extra mortgage payments throughout the term?
Are you hoping to pay off your mortgage as fast as possible? It’s very important to � nd out what pre-payment privileges are included in your mortgage. For example, some lenders allow you to make extra lump sum payments. Some lenders allow you to increase your monthly payments. And some lenders don’t allow for any of this!
While rate is certainly a huge factor it’s not the only thing that matters when comparing mortgage products. The bottom line is that it pays to know your needs and to ask questions!

It’s been interesting to listen to Liberal MLAs and candidates posi-tion themselves in advance of the upcoming budget and the election that will follow on its heels next May.
The main argument they all seem to be making is that we need a Liberal government again because they, alone, can be trusted to hold the line on taxes and debt.
Unfor-tunately, the facts d o n ’ t s u p -port this partisan
contention.Take the carbon tax as an ex-
ample. The Liberal government introduced this tax in 2008. Yet, despite having voted for successive increases to this tax since 2009, MLA Donna Barnett is now sug-gesting the carbon tax be “axed” in an effort to curry favour with her rural voters, who generally don’t like this particular tax.
Unfortunately, MLA Barnett fails to point out that axing the car-bon tax would create a $1.18 billion dollar hole in the government’s an-nual tax revenues. If she truly does want this tax ‘axed’ then she has an obligation to tell her voters what tax increases she would support to replace that revenue.
Or, would she simply wish to see BC have a structural deficit by not replacing the carbon tax with tax increases elsewhere?
Speaking of deficits and the debt they create, I read that the newly nominated Liberal Candidate for Cariboo North is claiming we need to re-elect a Liberal government because they will hold the line on debt -- every dollar of which she views as an unfair burden on our children.
In the spirit of informed debate: under the BC Liberals the provin-cial debt has ballooned from $33.8 billion in 2001 to a projected $66.4 billion in 2014. This does not in-clude the massive debt burden of BC Hydro or the financial liabili-ties the government holds for pub-lic-private partnerships.
The Liberal track record on debt and deficits is on par with the NDP government that preceded them, not supporting the argument that the Liberals ought to be re-elected because of their fiscal prudence.

I want to say a heartfelt thank you to the Royal Canadian Legion and
to all the volunteers who yet again have created incredible Remembrance Day events, in-cluding the service, parade, and the lunch at the Legion.
As always, you have gone above and beyond as we come together to honour the sacrifice of our men and women in keep-ing Canada strong and free.
I visited Life’s Salt Jar Ware-house thrift store last week, and was impressed by the strong community support of this non-
p r o f i t organi-zation.
V o l -unteers run the s t o r e ,
and proceeds go back into the community through other non-profit groups making a differ-ence in our community.
The support in both dona-tions and sales has been good since the Oliver Street store opened two months ago, and I hope that support continues.
Congratulations to Sherry Cuthbertson and her board for taking the initiative on this en-terprise.
The City of Williams Lake and the Williams Lake Indian Band are partners and have submitted an application for a Community Forest license, which is the result of years of working in partnership.
We’re excited about the op-portunities this Community Forest will offer the City, the WLIB, and the communities near the cut blocks.
On Tuesday, I was down at 100 Mile House attending an all day meeting with MLA Bar-nett and the other two Beetle Action Coalitions - together we represent 75 per cent of the province.
We were discussing our Ru-ral BC project which epitomiz-es the purpose of CCBAC and the important role rural BC has in this province.

Season to care for less fortunateWhile out taking photographs
at noon for the Tribune’s weekly streeter Wednesday, I ran into Wayne Lucier, homeless out-reach worker for Canadian Mental Health Association in Williams Lake.
When I asked how he was do-ing, Wayne looked down – he’s much taller than I am – and said “life is grand and the sun is shin-ing,” flashing me an equally bright smile.
He talked about the fact more people over 55 are struggling to find places to live in Williams Lake, and then paused mid-sen-tence and said, “actually, you could do something for me.”
Lucier helps people of all ages
in the community find housing. Many of them are in dire need of some furniture.
A few months ago he was burst-ing at the seams with donations, mostly from seniors in the com-munity that were downsizing, but suddenly there was a surge and everything he had was needed by someone and given away.
Wayne said all kinds of furniture would be appreciated, although he does not take appliances. He hasn’t ventured into supplying those items.
“There are a few young families just starting out that have noth-ing,” Wayne said.
Wayne’s request to get the word out was a timely reminder that
we’re approaching that time of year when those of us that have can help those that don’t have.
Opportunities to give are just around the corner such as the Child Development Centre annual Yuletide Dinner for people low on friends and funds, on Dec. 5, and the Christmas Wish Breakfast, date TBA. The Salvation Army continues to accept donations of warm clothing, food and gifts.
Williams Lake knows how to be generous, there’s no question about it, but it never hurts to be reminded.
If anyone has extra furniture they’d be willing to donate, Wayne can be contacted on his cell phone 250-305-4652.

Question of the week
Smart meter installation nearly doneBC Hydro is getting close to
the end of its installation of 1.7 million wireless electricity me-ters, but the “smart grid” won’t be functional until next spring.
Until then, meters will still be read manually or consumption es-timated for billing purposes. And for one more winter storm season, people will still have to call BC Hydro to report a power outage, before the grid begins automatic metering and reporting of electri-cal failures.
Cindy Verschoor, BC Hydro’s communications manager for the smart meter program, said about four per cent of the meter instal-lations remain to be done, mainly on the Gulf Islands.
Some of the old meters remain in locations around the province, either because they are inacces-sible or because owners have re-fused them.
While BC Hydro owns the me-ter, the base and connections are part of the owner’s electrical sys-tem and can be placed anywhere. In some cases, garages or decks have been built over meters, and if they can’t be read, the bill is based on an estimate until a wireless me-
ter is installed.Manual meter readings will be
checked against automatic read-ings during the testing phase, to verify accuracy.
Verschoor said there have been six meters replaced due to inac-curate readings or other defects, but generally the new meters are more accurate, and they eliminate human errors in reading or enter-ing data required for mechanical meters.
“All of our meters have to be certified by Measurement Cana-da, which is a consumer protec-tion agency, just like the pump at the gas station and the scale at the grocery store,” she said.
Verschoor said only two cus-tomers out of more than one mil-lion have opted to have the meter located away from their home.
Those who refuse for whatev-er reason have their installation placed “on hold” while their con-cerns are addressed by BC Hydro.
After media reports of fires as-sociated with the program, BC Hydro commissioned a study of residential fire reports by Sur-rey Fire Chief Len Garis and re-searcher Joseph Clare.
It shows that electrical fires have declined since the installa-tion of new meters began.
Damaged meter sockets are usually the owner’s responsibil-ity, but BC Hydro inspects them at the time of install and offers to fix them at no charge if they are damaged.
So far, 1,200 meter bases have been replaced.
A house fire in Mission last spring took place three days after a smart meter was installed. Ver-schoor said the fire is still under investigation by the B.C.
Safety Authority, but the elec-trical meter has been ruled out as a cause.
Despite media reports to the contrary, there have been no fires attributed to smart meters, she said.
Reader supports Republican stanceEditor I lost the election, well not really,
I was not even in the running, I was a Romney Republican supporter probably only one of about 13 per-cent of Canadians that did support the Republicans.
The reason I supported the Re-publicans is actually part of my make up, I am a free enterpriser, believing that we should work for what we get in life.
I was reading recently where the number of people depending on Canadian food banks has grown exponentially, further down on the same page; don’t feed wild animals because it makes them dependent upon us, go figure.
I got my first job as a nine year old, working on a dairy and help-ing deliver milk. Over the next few pre-teen and teenage years, I picked strawberries, set pins in a bowling
alley, became a carpenter’s helper, an electrician’s helper, at fifteen I started my own car washing busi-ness, hiring teens to work for me.
Prior to leaving school I worked in a clothing store, becoming one of the best dressed in school. By 20 years old, I was operating my own part-time service business, often employing men much my senior to assist me, paralleling this, I was a member of a volunteer fire depart-ment and working full time learn-ing the trade of millwright.
My life has been one of educa-tion; I have attended or studied at a great number of institutions, in B.C. and Alberta and by correspondence, Oregon and Ontario.
I took military training and re-ceived my officer commission. I have studied and hold both Pro-vincial and Interprovincial certifi-cation in three trades. I can cover
a wall with the certificates that I have earned by the dedicated effort I have put in to the process of learn-ing.
I am a free enterpriser, the words of President Kennedy ring in my ear, “Ask not what the country can do for you, but rather, ask what you can do for the country.”
Obama is like a movie star, well liked, loved, and possibly wor-shipped. I am of the opinion that his is an entitlement philosophy, where today, we see growing numbers of unemployed, growing numbers collecting food stamps, and grow-ing numbers of businesses leaving the United States to find more re-sponsive governments for business development, my hope is common sense will prevail and concerns will be proven wrong.

School District 27 trustees received some negative feedback at their special board meeting Wednesday, Nov. 7.
“I am not here on a real positive note,” said Joan Erb, Cariboo Chilcotin Teacher’s Association president during the open question period.
She said teachers at Glendale Elementary School had relayed to her that they felt “dismissed, humiliated and embar-rassed,” in the closed consultation meeting the teachers had with trustees earlier this month on the district’s Initial Options Report The report pro-poses closing Glendale, Kwaleen, and Wildwood elementary schools and raising Grade 7s to a grades 7 to 12 second-ary school operated as one secondary school on the Williams Lake and Columneetza secondary campuses.
Erb said she could tell by looking at the trustees that they are tired, but teachers need to feel they
are part of the the consul-tation process and that the trustees are sensitive to what they are going through as teachers fac-ing the closure of their school.
She asked the trustees to show “common cour-tesy as partners in this wild business of educa-tion.”
She also said she would try to sit in on fu-ture consultation meet-ings between trustees and teachers at the schools that are proposed for clo-sure in the district.
On another negative note, District 27 Parent Advisory Council presi-dent Rhonda McCreight said she would be step-ping down as president at the organization’s annual meeting.
“It is with a very heavy heart that I will not be seeking re-election as chair,” McCreight said.
McCreight said she needed to take a step back and analyze how she felt about the Initial Options Report as a parent.
She commended the board for all their hard work and said she had
no issues with individual board members.
However, she said she felt that the district and board policies don’t re-flect the fact that district parent advisory councils have legislated roles as stakeholders and advisors to the school boards.
She said the DPAC had collected informa-tion about the Initial Op-tions Report and from
individual school parent advisory councils but the board hadn’t once asked for the DPAC’s advice.
“I don’t feel that you feel we are equal partners in education,” McCreight said.
She said the board needed to get rid of the railings and barriers that prevent DPAC from ful-filling its advisory role.
In an earlier discus-sion the trustees dealt with requests for separate consultation meetings on the Initial Options Report from DPAC, the WLSS PAC and the Cariboo Family Enrichment Cen-tre.
After considerable discussion the board agreed to hold a separate meeting with the DPAC council on Nov. 28, but rejected the requests to meet separately with the WLSS PAC and The Cariboo Family Enrich-ment Centre.
Due to time constraints, Secretary Treasurer Bon-nie Roller expressed concern about holding separate meetings with individual groups outside of the scheduled public
consultation meetings. She said there was ample time in the public consul-tation schedules for in-dividual groups to make their presentations.
Several trustees also talked about attending school PAC meetings in their regular roles as school trustees and school liaisons.
Public consultation meetings on the Initial Options Report have been held this fall at WLSS, Columneetza, Alexis Creek, and Glen-dale schools.
Public consultation meetings are coming up at Kwaleen elementary at 6:30 p.m. on Nov. 20 and at Wildwood elementary, on Nov. 29, also at 6:30 p.m.
The public is also invit-ed to provide input on the Initial Options Report by e-mail using the district’s ThoughtStream process accessed at www.sd27.bc.ca
Written submissions can be mailed to Think Tank, School District No. 27, 350 N. Second Ave-nue, Williams Lake, B.C. V2G 1Z9.

There was heat on the ice last Saturday when the Williams Lake Stampeders played the Quesnel Kangaroos at the Cariboo Me-morial Complex, with a final 7-4 score for Williams Lake.
“Rivalry between the Stam-peders and the Kangaroos gets a little intense,” said Stampeders general manager Kelly Kohen. “We got sucked into their style of play.”
Players on the two teams spent a total of 70 minutes in the pen-alty boxes—a result of referee calls of unsportsmanlike con-duct, tripping, roughing, goalie interference, holding and fight-ing.
It was a strong first period for the Stampeders – in the first five minutes Nathan Zurak scored a goal with assists by Aaron Zurak and Dylan Richardson and Stu-art Sasges scored with assists by Jassi Sangha and Tyler Fuller.
Matt Lees scored a power-play goal with assists by Dylan Richardson and Nathan Zurak, and Tyler Fuller scored with as-sists by Jassi Sangha and Stuart
Sasges. A final goal in the first period was scored by Jassi Sang-ha with assists by Tyler Fuller and David Gore.
The Kangaroos came from ‘down under’ in the second peri-od to score all four of their goals, with Joel Boyetchko scoring in
just over one minute of period play time.
Andrew Fisher retaliated with the Stampeders’ sole goal for that period, with assists by David Gore and Stuart Sasges.
In the third period David Gore scored an empty net goal with an
assist by Andrew Fisher.The Kangaroos spent a total of
26 minutes on 12 infractions in the penalty box and the Stamped-ers spent 44 minutes on 17.
The Stampeders play again on Friday, Nov. 16 against the Lac La Hache Tomahawks.

Lakecity shooting range re-calibrated
The Williams Lake Sportsmen’s Associa-tion is the proud new owner of a completely overhauled shooting range.
Terry Chupa, director with the WLSA, said work was completed Oct. 1 on the project.
“What we’ve got now are five IPSC (Interna-tional Practical Shooters Confederation) bays, we have a 100-yard rimfire range, the trap range and we’ve got a long-range bay,” Chupa said.
Prior to the renova-tions the club’s ranges consisted of a long-range bay, the trap range and a single short-range bay.
Chupa said the new ranges give the associa-tion far greater options in terms of being able to hold events and to attract more people to the area for tournaments and other events.
“Now we can do all the things we’ve never
been able to do here,” he said. “We can hold IPSC provincials here now. We can do our qualifiers here, which is really nice. They can have rimfire competi-tions — the army and navy cadets can also do their biathlon training here now, and they can build a cross-country loop around the outside. The Cariboo Archers are going to have bays there
to use, as well.”Chupa added it will
also be one of just a handful of ranges in B.C. approved for auto-matic fire weapons.
“The range inspector told us this is one of the nicest ranges he’s seen laid out in B.C.,” he said.
Work on the project began in April of 2012, Chupa said. He noted Lee Todd, owner of
Newco Logging Ltd. and Bill Pinchbeck were massive supporters in the project.
“We designed it and they completely lent us their equipment,” Chupa said “Bill brought out his backhoe and they put in about 120 hours of free work.”
More volunteers in-cluded cat operator Jack Butler, Scott and Roy Betts, Jacques Drisdelle,
Barrry Jenkins, Ernie Davidson, members of the Rocky Mountain Rangers, who helped with clearing brush, and multiple WLSA mem-bers. “So many people were just a tremendous help in this,” Chupa said.

In the past four years Success by 6 has given out approximately $140,000 to programs and organi-zations in the Williams Lake area supporting children 0-6 years and their families.
With another round of funding in place, the local table is once again accepting applications for innova-tive initiatives.
Success by 6 is funded by BC credit unions, the provincial gov-ernment and United Way, and money is dispersed to local Suc-cess by 6 tables throughout BC.
All decisions about where and how the money is spent are made by the local community commit-tee, following sets of guidelines and criteria.
Success by 6 community coor-dinator LeRae Haynes states that she looks forward every year to the proposals that come in.
“We’ve had the opportunity to fund projects that include the Chil-dren’s Festival, the Family Festi-val, bike rodeos for kids and pre-school health screening events,” she said. “We’ve also funded Ipads and software for kindergarten kids and for the Child Develop-ment Centre, interactive computer language programs and a school sound field system for children with hearing challenges.”
She said that they’ve also funded an aboriginal ‘Parents as Literacy Supporters’ program in rural com-munities, supported an innovative natural playground at Little Moc-casins Early Learning and funded a ‘Take a Child Outside’ program last year at Scout Island Nature Centre for local children.
The local Success by 6 table in-cludes people from the business community, First Nations commu-nity organizations, early learning, health, the faith community and social service agencies. They bring a broad range of perspective and
experience to Success by 6 in Wil-liams Lake, Haynes says.
“We look for programs that help prevent childhood vulnerabil-ity and give kids the best possible foundation for success,” she said. “This touches every aspect of our community, and having such di-verse local representation on our table helps us see a ‘bigger picture’ when making funding decisions.”
She also said that it’s more than about the money.
“Success by 6 is about all of us and affects the future of our fami-lies, our communities and our prov-ince. Being aware of the incredible importance of the early years and doing what we can to keep that fo-cus sharp and constant will benefit
all of us in the long run.”Two of the Success by 6 funded
projects this year were interactive Ipads and software for the Marie Sharpe Elementary School Kinder-garten class last spring and for the Child Development Centre.
The kindergarten class had 22 kids, including two autistic chil-dren with severe language defi-ciencies, and had a high percentage of children described as socially, physically and academically ‘vul-nerable.’
The Child Development Centre (CDC) uses the Success by 6-fund-ed Ipad to provide children with speech language delays a teaching and communication tool that can assist in language acquisition.
“This is a great way to have con-versations and talk about manners and character—it improves listen-ing skills, observations, language and understanding,” explained CDC speech pathologist Julia Hodder.
“The program can be tailored to each child and you can look for themes that each child is inter-ested in—things that motivate him or her,” she said. “It isn’t just for speech pathology; it can also be used in occupational therapy.”
She said that you can read books and talk about the stories, enjoy games, music, humour and art with kids.
“The fun and interactive games are a reward for the child making the sounds with the therapist. In one of the games, you can add your own voice, and another where you speak and it takes a picture of your face and inserts it into a character,” she continued. “You hear the word, say the word, shape the word and feel the word in your mouth.”
Success by 6 has recently part-nered with Kiwanis in Williams Lake in an exciting education pro-gram at Scout Island that gives all preschool and kindergarten kids, their teachers and parent volun-teers in the area the opportunity to come face to face with nature in their own backyards—increasing their knowledge, confidence and ability to experience the natural world around them.
Success by 6 in Williams Lake is currently accepting applications for programs running from Jan. 31 to Aug. 31, 2013.
For more information about Success by 6 in Williams Lake, including funding available for programs supporting children 0-6 in Williams Lake and surrounding communities, email [email protected] or phone 250-398-9848.

Museum Cowboy Christmas this Saturday The Museum of the Cariboo

Film club shows Higher Ground Tuesday
The Williams Lake Film Club tries to bring you the greatest variety of films available, films from all around the globe, bringing different cultures and different ways of life a bit closer to you.
Our next film, Higher Ground, is no excep-tion. The film will be shown at the Gibraltar Room, Tuesday, Nov. 20, at 7 p.m.
Back doors open at 6:30 p.m. The language of this film is - YES - English.
Higher Ground is the directorial debut of well-known actress Vera Farmiga, but not only that, she also plays the main role. She is excellent in both parts, which is never easy but even more so in this case as the main subject of the film is religion and spiritual belief.
Corinne, played by
Vera Farmiga and at one time by her younger sister Taissa, comes to Christianity almost by accident: she raises her hand in affirmation at a 1960s church service.
But it is not un-til much later, after Corinne is married to her rock-playing musi-cian and high-school
flame Ethan and caring for a baby daughter, that she truly feels God’s presence after a near-death experience. They both join an evangelical spiritual group.
They seem to be hap-py, the family grows, and Corinne feels part of a community. They live in a close-knit cir-
cle, befriend each other and sing beautifully to-gether. It all seems so perfect, but then doubts start to come up when she becomes close friends with Annika, a woman full of laughter and passion.
Annika is dissatisfied with the male-dominat-ed church, where wom-en are left unfulfilled even in their marital beds.
As Corinne ponders the coldness of her own situation with Ethan and the disdain by church elders for her book-reading ways, tragedy delivers another blow to her faith. She laments: “I’m still waiting for Him to make Himself at home. I’ve got the porch lights on, but He doesn’t come.”
Higher Ground is based on the book This Dark World: A Mem-oir of Salvation Found and Lost by Carolyn S. Briggs and Tim Met-calfe, who also wrote
the screenplay. Farmiga approaches this diffi-cult subject with a keen mind and a generosity of spirit that is so not Hol-lywood. She approaches religion from the stance of a respectful skep-tic, providing food for thought for both, believ-ers and non-believers. And she really makes you care for her char-acters, you laugh with them – and you cry with them. When this film is over you might want to ask yourself – where do you stand?
Our beautiful old-fashioned German Ad-vents Calendars will be for sale once more at the door. They are $2 each.
And as the giving sea-son is starting, please let us share and bring something for the Food Bank. A little bit or a lot, everything is welcome!
Admission is $9 regu-lar, $8 for members, and $6 for seniors (65+) and students, High School and TRU.

There will also be a table of home-baked goods prepared and do-nated by local school families.

ments will be avail-able from the kitchen throughout the day so

Violence Against Women
The community of Likely dedicated its re-cently constructed Ceno-taph on Remembrance
Day. Addressing the audi-
ence about the impor-tance of remembering those who sacrificed for the freedoms we enjoy to-day were Adam Schaan, representing MLA Bob
Simpson; Cariboo Re-gional District Director Joan Sorley, and Robin Hood, Likely Chamber of Commerce president.
The construction of the Cenotaph, a long held dream of the com-munity, was organized by the Likely Seniors Association. Association president Marvin Doney thanked those involved in the planning and con-struction.
The Likely Chamber of Commerce organized the construction using many local people and businesses to accomplish the task.
Mt. Polly Mine donat-ed the stone used for the monument.
School District 27 do-nated the flag pole and many members of the seniors association as-sisted in the construction of the Cenotaph as well
as the preparation for the Remembrance Day cer-emony.
The Cenotaph was unveiled by lifetime se-nior’s association mem-ber Lala Hampton and our eldest senior’s as-sociation member Karl Welti.
The Remembrance Day ceremony master of ceremonies was Ger-rit Apperloo who intro-duced the reader of Flan-ders Field, Julie Lockyer, and the reader of Ode of
Remembrance, Gabrielle Gagnon. Assisting in the wreath laying were Ga-brielle and Zoe Gagnon.
Wreaths made of lo-cal evergreen boughs and pine cones and made in Likely, were laid at the Cenotaph on behalf of the MLA by Adam Schaan, the CRD by Joan Sorley, the Likely Cham-ber of Commerce by Robin Hood, Big Lake Community Association by board member Lee-ann Sheieman, industry
by Paul Allan from Mt. Polly Mine, the senior’s association by Karl Welti, the police forces by Staff Sergeant Ken Brissard, in memory of family members lost in the wars by Linda Smith, John Gagnon, and Gloria Harms, and the youth by student Julie Lockyer.
There was a moment of silence paid in respect of the veterans of Likely who could not be there: Henry Hicks, Al Taylor, and John Glenday.
The community of Likely wishes to express a heartfelt thank you to the RCMP detachment of Williams Lake for sending four officers to assist us in our ceremony of remembrance; to Big Lake for joining us in our act of remembrance; to Cathie Wright for tak-ing all the pictures; to all those who participated in any way in this event; and to all who came to remember.
We will remember!

“We really appreci-ate the Cariboo Gold for putting on this event and hope to do it more often, depending on the inter-est.”
Cariboo Chilcotin Elder College future in jeopardy
A question of survival is on the agenda for the Cariboo Chilcotin Elder College Annual General meeting this week.
“This year, we need to have a discussion about the survival of our Elder College,” Curriculum Committee Chair Barry Sale said.
In 2013, most of the executive will be com-pleting their terms, and there appears to be very little interest among the membership to step up and take a turn at the var-ious positions, he said.
Some executive mem-bers have been on the job for more than five years and want to step down,
Sale pointed out. A dis-cussion at the annual general meeting will help determine the future sur-vival of the group.
The meeting will take place Wednesday, Nov. 14 at 1 p.m. at the Se-niors’ Activity Centre. Refreshments will be served. Elections are schedule for three direc-tors’ positions, and no one has expressed inter-est in serving as presi-dent.
New executive board members are always welcome.
“Elder College pro-vides a vital and valu-able service to the over-50 crowd in Williams Lake,” Sale said.
It offers a wide variety
of courses at low cost to its members.
For further informa-tion, call Sale at 250-392-
3315 or Joanne Wright at 250-398-7624.

If it’s adventure you’re after Doug Green can most likely help you find it.
A world traveller, a tour guide, a traditional Tsilqhot’in hunter and gatherer — Green wouldn’t call any other place than the Chilcotin home.
He now owns and operates Cariboo Chilcotin Jetboat Adven-tures (CCJA) on the Fraser River with his partner, Charlene Lupien, and is a director for Aboriginal Tourism B.C. for the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast.
Doug grew up in Meldrum Creek in a sawmill camp. His dad, Al Green, was the foreman. His mom, Julie, was a Palmantier. Her dad — Doug’s grandfather — Leonard Palmantier, was a fa-mous rodeo cowboy.
“We were neighbours to the Colliers,” Doug recalls of grow-ing up in the 60s. “An English fellow named Eric Collier — he wrote the book Three Against the Wilderness — moved out into the Chilcotin and became a trapper behind where we live.
“It was a great little community. I think back to the Halloween par-ties when I was a kid everyone would get in an old log cabin, there would be live music, every-body would be dressed up includ-ing the adults, and we’d just play games like bobbing for apples, pin the tail on the donkey — old style. They’d do the same at Christmas. West Fraser, who owned the log-ging area, they flew Santa Claus out in a helicopter.”
Despite growing up with rodeo cowboys Doug never really got into the sport, he said.
“My dad was more of a me-chanic and a logger so I kind of followed him,” he said. “And my mom was too much of a worry wart to let us get on bulls.”
Instead of joining the rodeo circuit Doug began working at a young age.
“I started falling trees when I was 18, but just in the summers, of course,” he said. “In one of my
first falling jobs, I was one of the younger fallers in Fort Nelson area.”
That career evolved for Doug and eventually he got into some heli-falling. He worked for com-panies in Squamish and Prince George and did some convention-al logging as well.
“That career allowed me to trav-el throughout Central America, all over Mexico, the U.S., southeast Asia and Japan,” he said.
It was practically right in his own back yard, however, where Green would stumble upon his passion.
“I was living down near Pem-berton and I was working out there at the time, and a guy there had a jet boat operation,” he said. “That’s what got me intrigued in starting an operation on the Fraser.
“But another time I was out in the back end of Taseko Lake — We were camped out there — and were eating dinner out on the beach. It had taken us a couple of days to get there just slowly crawling on an old four-by-four road. We’d been there a couple of days and we saw a jet boat rip-ping up the lake and come cruis-ing right up the beach where we were camped. They popped out these little ramps and they just ran
a four-wheeler out. It looked so easy and so nice I thought, ‘Man, I’ve got to get me one of those.’ So I did.”
Doug now runs multi-day and day tours, that include historic, cultural, and exciting, scenic sec-tions on the Fraser River from Soda Creek to Lillooet.
“Having travelled for months at a time and having observed what other people have done in other countries as far as tourism opera-tions it got me interested in doing my own thing here at home be-cause it’s so amazingly beautiful here,” he said.
“A lot of places in the world are very touristy and overrun. It’s totally different here. B.C. is rela-tively pristine, and especially the Cariboo Chilcotin. I always grew up doing traditional things, living in the bush and hunting and fish-ing, so it’s just a natural fit to be working in the middle of it.”
Doug and Charlene always in-corporate aboriginal culture along their tours. Guests, who visit Wil-liams Lake from around the world, even get to try their hand at dip-netting, accompanied by a salmon barbecue on the river shore.
“It’s totally fresh right out of the river, we teach our guests about the flora and fauna and their me-
dicinal and food properties and incorporate some of them into our meals,” Doug said.
“There are also a number of petroglyphs and pictographs we share,” Charlene added.
CCJA does a cultural tour, a gold rush tour and, more recently, offers a multi-day Photo Safari Workshop tour with award-win-ning local photographer Chris Harris.
“That really incorporates ev-erything from the First Nation, early explorer history to the gold rush to everything after that,” he said. “As we go to Soda Creek we talk about the paddle wheelers and visit old gold mining sites, things like that.”
CCJA, which Doug and Char-lene began in 1999, has also been involved in some major projects over the years.
In 2006 Doug took Vancouver Sun writer Stephen Hume and a photographer along the Fraser River retracing the footsteps of Si-mon Fraser. Hume, in turn, wrote a book about the adventure - Si-mon Fraser: In Search of Modern British Columbia.
“No one had ever done such an extensive study,” he said. “The river was at its highest in its re-corded history at the time so it
made for some pretty interesting stories. It was really big water.”
More recently, however, Green was involved in a mountain bike film project called Where the Trail Ends — a movie filmed by Nel-son-based Freeride Entertainment and funded by Red Bull. Williams Lake pro rider James Doerfling is featured in the film, which took riders to remote places throughout the world including China’s Gobi desert.
“Derek Westerlund from Fre-eride Entertainment contacted me about it,” Green said. “We’d done a movie called Back in the Saddle with some local guys — Ambrose Weingart and Cory Leclerc. So he’d heard of us and asked me if I wanted to help out.
“Within a few days we’d put it all together and that’s what we did.”
The Fraser River portion of the movie was shot in October of 2011. Doug took a crew of five riders, including Doerfling, out on the Fraser to film for the movie. Two helicopters also followed alongside.
“We were out there for 10 days. But we filmed mostly near a camp I have at Riske Creek.”
Green said that was the best part about working with the film crew — having it be shot right in both his and James’ backyard.
“That was one of the reasons I did it because we had a local rider,” he said. “I didn’t realize at the time how big it was going to be but I knew James was in it. I figured he’s one of the best bikers around and he should be recog-nized as that.
And, the area. I wanted to bring some notoriety to Williams Lake for the mountain bike people and share the Fraser River and what I do. It was really great.” Earlier in September the crew, including Doug and Doerfling, attended the film’s world premiere in Las Ve-gas.
Locally to celebrate the Cariboo Chilcotin Mountain Bike Consor-tium are premiering the film in Williams Lake Nov. 29 at Para-dise Cinemas.
