Companies eye pellet plant for TerraceTERRACE - A planned wood pellet plant here is a crucial part of the equation needed for the de-velopment of a value-added for-est industry, says one of its pro-ponents.

The plant, the planning for which is the subject of an agree-ment struck last week by forest tenure holder Coast Tsimshian Resources and pellet produc-er Pinnacle Renewable Energy, would use � bre now considered waste, says Coast Tsimshian chief executive of� cer Wayne Drury.

“As you know, using that part of the [forest] pro� le has always been a challenge,” said Drury.

That’s because the percent-age of � bre in the area which can’t be used in a sawmill to manufacture lumber tends to be

higher than elsewhere, creating mountains of residue which then need to be dealt with.

“We’ve always said we’ve been looking for a way to use that waste. We really need to add val-ue and that’s been our objective,” said Drury in explaining the rea-soning behind the agreement with Pinnacle, which has six pel-let plants in BC, including ones in Houston and Burns Lake.

He described the agreement between Coast Tsimshian and Pinnacle as a good � t because one can supply the � bre and the other the manufacturing exper-tise and both have extensive busi-ness experience in the region.

Wood pellets are formed from waste wood by applying pressure which also results in moisture being squeezed out.

They are burned in furnac-es and stoves in residences and commercial buildings.

Drury said Terrace is a logi-cal place for a wood pellet plant because of the availability of � -bre, because it would comple-ment Pinnacle’s other plants along Hwy16 and because of the closeness to an export facil-ity Pinnacle has opened in Prince Rupert.

For now, the favoured loca-tion for the plant is the far west-ern end of Coast Tsimshian’s Keith Ave. Poirier log yard where it is bounded by Frank St.

CN’s rail line and Hwy16 run along the northern end of the property, providing easy access either by road or by rail to Pin-nacle’s Prince Rupert export ter-minal.

“That’s where we’d like it to be but the � nal decision will de-pend upon an evaluation of it and other locations,” said Drury.

The size of the plant, how much � bre it can take in and how much it will produce and its cost has yet to be decided.

Drury said Coast Tsimshian and Pinnacle will be looking for additional � bre from other for-est companies in the area and that the resulting volume will help establish the wood pellet plant’s output.

One potential customer al-ready being talked about is Skee-na Sawmills, located right across the highway from the Poirier log yard.

“What our goal is to establish something that will bene� t the entire area,” said Drury.

Kitimat recycling groupreceives subsidy boostBy Cameron OrrTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

KITIMAT - Kitimat Understanding the Envi-ronment (KUTE) has received their rent sup-plement from the District of Kitimat.

KUTE President Barb Hall had asked council at an earlier meeting for money to match the increased rent, when they would have to renew their lease with the building owner of their recycling depot.

Council asked District staff for a report following the presentation and the recom-mendation which came back was for coun-cil to approve the increase, which means $2,251.20 more a month.

“I think our staff is still looking at options in the longer term but this allows for KUTE operations to continue at its present location for a two year period, and if we � nd some-thing better...we’ll entertain that in future dis-cussions,” said Mario Feldhoff right before the decision.

Hall issued a statement following the de-cision by council, saying that they are thank-ful that the funding had been approved to cover their new rent. “KUTE has been at our current location since May 1994 and has en-joyed a good relationship with the landlord,” she said. “They have been very generous to us by keeping the rent down for many years.”

She said they understand that costs have risen, “and the reality of supply and demand for space in Kitimat.”

She con� rmed that they and the District of Kitimat have looked for other locations but have come up empty.

Doug Hughan, a KUTE board member, explained that previous ideas such as moving

the depot to the land� ll isn’t ideal given the services they need for a workplace but sug-gested places like Forest Avenue, another of council’s thoughts, could be better.

Even so, the current depot is well suited to their needs, he said.

Staff’s report to council also included a review of considerations of Kitimat’s former animal shelter location, on Enterprise Ave-nue, as a possible new recycling location, but it was found that location would be entirely too small.

The size is 40 per cent of the current KUTE depot, and only has a single garage area, with no capacity for ef� cient loading by forklift, the report continued.

KUTE’s new lease term is for two-years, and staff’s report said that time will give them options to explore whether they could eventu-ally somehow team-up with a potential Multi-Material BC depot once that program gets un-derway.

The MMBC program is a province-wide recycling program that aims to bring curbside recycling to communities across the province, including Kitimat.

MMBC offered municipalities the op-tion of being the provider of recycling pick-up and while many communities have signed on, Kitimat did not due to the concerns about post-collection placement of the materials and lingering questions about how much the program would actually cost.

With the District saying no, the collec-tion program will eventually go to bid for a private contractor. Hughan said MMBC could potentially move into the old animal shelter since their materials will be lighter than what KUTE handles.

BC Ferries route cutsare widely condemnedBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - Over the course of 90 minutes Dec. 5 repre-sentatives from BC Fer-ries and the Ministry of Transportation were re-peatedly told proposed service cuts on the North Coast are simply unac-ceptable.

The plan unveiled by BC Ferries at the open house includes the elimination of the Mon-day night sailing from Prince Rupert to Ski-degate and subsequent Tuesday morning sail-ing from Skidegate to Prince Rupert during the off-peak season and the elimination of the Sat-urday sailing during the peak season — cutting the schedule to two trips per week during the off-peak schedule and five sailings per week during peak season.

On the Inside Pas-sage, the peak season would be reduced from the current May to Sep-tember to a seven-week window between June and mid-September, and the mid-week sail-ings during the off-peak season would be elimi-nated so there is only the weekend sailing.

Mayor Jack Mussal-lem said any cuts would not easily be pushed on people, particularly in light of a $24 million agreement between the province and Nexen for land at Grassy Point.

“We’re very resis-

tant to this. We’re very resistant to people who don’t live here com-ing here and imposing something ... we will be asking Premier Clark for reconsideration. I don’t want to insult anyone here, but I’m not really interested in talking to anyone here. We’re go-ing straight to the Pre-mier. This is a political decision, it’s nothing else, and it’s being han-dled in a very, very poor way. If you were in my shoes, you would under-stand why we’re object-ing to this, why we’re actually insulted by it,” he said, a statement that was supported by May-or Dave MacDonald of Port Edward.

“This is going to hurt the Charlottes, it is going to hurt everything going on in the north. I

can tell you that the Dis-trict of Port Edward will be with whoever goes to Victoria to see anybody to talk to, and it will not be a friendly conversa-tion,” said MacDonald.

Several people said BC Ferries is part of the highway system on the North Coast and needs to be treated as such.

“What we would like to see is a series of opportunities that would provide us a service, just as it would be a high-way service and just as it was previously. We still consider this as a marine highway and an extension of Hwy 16 ... you need to cater to the people who live here, who need this service to their benefit,” said Skee-na – Queen Charlotte Regional District vice-chair Des Nobles.

Community grants frozen for 2014By Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - Commu-nity groups won’t be receiving any more money from the City of Prince Rupert this year than they did last year after council voted to fund Community Enhancement Grants in 2014 at the same level as 2013.

The total amount requested in 2014 rose from $1.41 million to $1.53 million, but council said they could not justify spending the additional money.

“The city still has a number of issues outstanding, including the sale of Watson Island, the re-moval of residual chemicals and city infrastructure is an ongoing concern,” said Mayor Jack Mus-sallem.

“I know a lot of people are looking at the [$2.1 million] the Prince Rupert Port Authority gave us and think we have a bunch more money, but I would remind

people that we did have a bud-get shortfall in the spring and the in-frastructure chal-lenge has not got-ten better ... we are just trying to be cost efficient,” said Coun. Anna Ashley.

The decision will leave some organizations that were looking for significantly more for 2014 having to re-examine their operations in the year ahead.

The Muse-um of Northern BC had request-ed an increase from $201,500 to $244,500 in the face of “signifi-cant financial challenges” that would result in staff cuts without more money, but the museum will only receive $195,000 from the

city due to a tax ex-emption they were granted earlier in the year.

The Prince Ru-pert Library had re-quested a funding increase of $36,000 to cover operational costs, but will receive the same $531,000 that was provided last year. However, coun-cil reserved the right to come back to that request in January.

The Lester Cen-tre had requested $4,000 to offset in-surance for the soci-ety board of directors

that is no longer being covered, but will need to find the money elsewhere.

A decision on the grant for Tourism Prince Rupert, includ-ing the visitor information centre, will be delayed until January.

“We did have a budget shortfall and the infrastruc-ture challenge has not gotten better. ”

Anna Ashley

Latecomers at risk of missingtheir intended airline flightsTERRACE - Northwest Regional Airport officials here are warn-ing passengers they need to be checked in by the times indicated by their carrier or they could risk missing their flights.

With WestJet now flying out of Terrace, more flights are taking off within a few minutes of each other and that means more pas-sengers who need to be checked in and passed through security at the same time.

So those who are late check-ing in or going through security risk not getting on their intended flight, says airport manager Car-

man Hendry.“There are times now when

we have three aircraft on the apron,” said Hendry of service to Vancouver offered by WestJet, Air Canada Jazz and Hawkair.

“Being checked in means be-ing checked in, not standing in the line up,” noted Hendry.

He’s had several reports of people arriving after their check in time and then not being able to board their flight.

Generally speaking, passen-gers have to be checked in 45 minutes before their flight and be through security 30 minutes be-

fore their flight.Hendry said the security

clearance system at the airport is fully staffed and is working at full capacity.

Hendry said people traveling from out of town to catch a flight should build in allowances for any potential traffic or other delays.

That’s especially important because of current winter driving conditions, he added.

Passenger traffic generally has been increasing because of the region’s improving economy.

Already this year the airport has set a passenger record.

Harley Riders donate $10,000 and 617 toys for ChristmasBy Martina PerryTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - The Prince Rupert Har-ley Riders Club made a massive donation to en-sure all children have something to open on Christmas morning.

The club raised $10,000 and collected 617 toys from the 32nd annual Toy Run event that took place in Octo-ber, which was donat-ed to the Prince Rupert Salvation Army for its Christmas Hamper Pro-gram on Friday.

“We came to our goal. It took us an ex-tra month, but we did good,” said Norm Sklapsky, president of the Prince Rupert Harley Riders.

“For 32 years the Harley Riders have been collecting toys and cash to help us with our Christmas program. This year has been phe-nomenal, with over 600 toys and another $10,000. It’s such a huge help,” Capt. Gary Sheils of the Prince Rupert Sal-vation Army said.

The funds were raised from ticket sales

for the Toy Run dance in October, liquor sales at the dance, donation jars in Prince Rupert and Port Edward and dona-tions from businesses and individuals.

A major money rais-er comes from Toy Run T-shirt sales, with Don-na Wing spearheading the efforts for the last number of years along with Sklapsky.

The Toy Run col-lects toys by requiring people attending the dance to donate some kind of toy along with the cost of their ticket.

“People want to give when they know it’s going to children. After 32 years being involved in the com-munity ... people want to donate because they know it’s going to a good cause,” Sklapsky said.

“We’re a group of honest people that want to help children and the community.”

Sklapsky said the club holds the annual fundraising event for un-derprivileged children in Prince Rupert and Port Edward, who may not have presents to open on Christmas morning oth-erwise.

Sklapsky said there tends to be a lot of par-ents in smaller commu-nities with alcohol or drug abuse issues.

“Sometimes kids parent’s are out there, and the kids don’t get anything for Christ-mas. We do this for them.”

Sklapsky has been the main organizer of the event for the past five years, taking over the re-sponsibility after long-time president Mark Desautels (Dezi) passed away.

“My goal the first year after Mark died was to raise $10,000 and have one of our biggest fundraisers ever to hon-our him,” said Sklapsky, who was successful in his goal.

“I thought if I could do it the first year, I should be able to do it every year.”

Since being pres-ident of the club Sklapsky has done just that, helping to raise $50,000 in five years.

Chris Rose will be taking over the role of club president next year, with Sklapsky ex-plaining he needs a year

off. “If he wants to carry on

after one year that’s great. If not, I’m willing to take over again,” said Rose.

Capt. Sheils expects the Salvation Army will serve 850 families as part of this year’s Christ-mas Hamper Program, with 1,200 to 1,300 chil-dren being in those fam-ilies.

Hotels in the works to replace run-down former motelBy Cameron OrrTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

KITIMAT - Kitimat Council has been handling a number of proposals lately that’d see the construction of new hotels.

Most recently an applica-tion came through to amend the C5 zoning, which would allow the construction of a proposed Microtel unit where the Aluminum City Motel currently stands.

The proposal sees two

new hotels being built on the land, as well as one new res-taurant.

The two hotels would mean a collective 149 new hotel beds to town.

The main proponent to the project is MasterBUILT Hotels, while the application was made on their behalf by Rick Scheidt of R.W. Scheidt Design.

To get the hotel he has requested C5 Zones to al-low for ‘hotels’ (motels are

an existing use in the zoning) as well the applicant is seek-ing an increase to permitted height, from nine metres to 17 metres, as well as increas-ing the maximum density from .5 to .8 Floor Area Ra-tio.

Council unanimously voted on giving first and sec-ond reading to the proposed amendment, and referred the application to the advisory planning commission.

A public hearing is

scheduled for January 6.The motion also calls for

final adoption to be condi-tional on the completion of a servicing study.

Kitimat planner Daniel Martin says that the applicant has indicated plans to begin work very soon on the project.

“The intent given in the application is to start con-struction on the Microtel portion of the site, and pos-sibly the restaurant as well, as soon as possible,” he said,

saying the other hotel facili-ty, a suites hotel, would likely come following that.

Councillors added a re-ferral to the traffic committee as well for this application.

The effect of the appli-cant’s desire to increase build-ing height would mean that instead of a limit of three sto-reys, the hotel could be up to five.

Because the proposal would increase the number of rooms on the property by

99, staff note that additional rooms trigger a $300 a bed contribution to the Pollution Control Centre.

The servicing study which was included in the motion is to be paid for by the proponent.

That study is to look into the District’s infrastructure capacity, and identify neces-sary upgrades that the com-pany would have to provide to accommodate their devel-opment.

* GIFT CARDS AVAILABLE *

In the last article we started a Raisin wine and racked it to a carboy to � nish fermenting. It is now time to get away from the � rst heavy drop out. Rack your wine to a clean and sanitized carboy. At this time add ¼ Tsp of metabisulphite put this in a cup and melt this in a small amount of the wine you are moving between carboys and then add it back into the wine as you are racking. This will help prevent the oxidization of your wine. The racking process will help knock off a lot of the CO2 from fermentation this is a good thing as � zzy wine is not what we are trying to make. When your wine is racked over and properly topped up we will put it in a cool place and let everything rest for about two months or longer without disturbing the wine. You are looking for a totally clear bright looking wine before the next step bottling.There are two things to note in the above

paragraph. First what is a properly topped off carboy? Properly topping off a carboy is where we add a wine or water to the carboy to ensure there is only the space left in the steepest part of the curve to the neck of the carboy. Wine of a similar taste is best for this process. Raisin being hard to match I suggest just using a white wine that you like. I do not recommend water as I personally always taste water when using it to top off with. But that is your choice. The second is temperature. The temperature is very important at this stage as if too warm many of the subtitle � avors and aromas will be driven off by the heat. The recommended temperature to drop to should be around 50 F or 10 C. The last thing to note here is keep your air lock

full. If you do not your hard work will become drain cleaner very quickly.

Vigil honours Montreal victimsBy Martina PerryTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - Friday marked the 24th anni-versary of the Montreal Massacre and the North Coast Transition Society held a vigil at Northwest Community College (NWCC) to remember the women who were murdered and raise awareness to end violence against women.

On Dec. 6, 1989, 14 women attending Ecole Polytechnique in Montreal were killed when a man entered the school with a gun, separated the men from women, and murdered female students because he believed they were feminists.

“They died only because they were women, for no other reason,” Treena Decker, Stopping the Vio-lence counsellor of the North Coast Transition Soci-ety, said during the event.

Planning 10 students from Charles Hays Sec-ondary Students created 14 paper silhouettes to represent victims of the Montreal Massacre, which were laid out in the Multipurpose Room at NWCC and down the hallway at the entrance of the school.

“It allowed students to have a discussion about gender violence and the realities of the world we live in. All we can hope is we keep having dialogue that will encourage change,” Decker said.

A brief biography of each of the women was read by people in attendance, while red ros-es was laid on the � oor to represent each victim. Then, those at the vigil shared a moment of si-lence to honour the lives of the 14 women and the lives of all men who died because of gender-based violence.

“Despite the important work that has been done to end violence against women, on this day we are reminded that this work is far from complete,” said North Coast MLA Jennifer Rice, noting in British Columbia more than 1,000 physical and sexual as-saults against women take place each week.

“Every such act diminishes our society.”During his speech, Prince Rupert Mayor Jack

Mussallem said he’s saddened to know Prince Ru-pert is no exception.

“Every month I get a reality check when I see the Victim Services report and see there’s always a few cases of sexual assault or spousal assault,” he said.

Dec. 6 has been proclaimed the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women by the Canadian Government, with com-memorative events like Prince Rupert’s taking place across Canada each year.

Pacemaker clinics scheduledto be provided in TerraceBy Jonathon DyckTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

TERRACE - North-ern Health is starting to host pacemaker clinics in Terrace, B.C. twice a year.

The first two-day clinic was held at Mills Memorial Hospital on Nov. 6, 2013, and the next one will be on April 28, 2014. Previously residents in the Terrace area would have to trav-el to Smithers for the clinic. The clinic is for patients with a cardiac pacemaker to check the functioning of the pace-maker and battery life.

The new clinics were implemented af-ter a significant increase in demand. Previously there were only a few patients in the Terrace area that needed to at-tend these clinics, but now about 50 patients access the service.

“Hosting these clin-ics in Terrace shows Northern Health re-sponding to an increase in demand for a service,” said Chris Simms, Ter-race Health Service Ad-ministrator for Northern Health. “The clinics will allow patients to receive the care closer to home, instead of having to trav-el to another communi-ty.”

The clinic in Ter-race also had patients from surrounding com-munities including Dease Lake, Kitimat, and Greenville in atten-

dance.For the past ten

years the pacemaker

clinics have been held twice a year in com-munities across the re-

gion including Dawson Creek, Quesnel, Smith-ers, and Burns Lake.

PIN number in walletTERRACE - A person who lost a wal-let containing a debit card learned a painful lesson about securing personal information.

The debit card was used to make various transactions. The PIN had been written down on paper and stored

in the wallet with the debit card.Personal information such as PIN

numbers should not be written down and carried around in wallets or purs-es in case they are stolen. Thieves then have easy access to bank accounts and credit card accounts.

Public NoticeRio Tinto Alcan wishes to advise the general public that contractors working in the company’s transmission Line Right of Way (3 km north of Kitamaat Village) will begin a blasting schedule during the week of December 16th that may involve up to two blasting occurrences daily Monday to Friday between the hours of 09:00 – 16:00 hours. This work is sheduled for completion by 30 January 2014.

This blasting is required to crack the surface rock which will allow for excavation leading to construction of the new KMP electrical sub-station. Rio Tinto Alcan does not anticipate any public inconvenience as the blasting charges will be a low impact type so that noise, vibration and dust nuisance will be minimal. In addition, the use of blasting mats will eliminate flying rock.

V8J 4H3 intended to submit this amendment application to the Director to amend Permit: PE-06698, issued August 28, 2000, which authorizes the discharge of effluent from an existing coal handling facility.

Rampage keep win streak aliveBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - The Prince Rupert Rampage were looking for their fourth straight win against the Kitimat Ice Demons on Saturday night and picked up the two points in convincing fashion against a team that sits atop the Central Inte-rior Hockey League Western Con-ference standings.

The Ice Demons controlled the play in the opening minutes, including two great shorthanded opportunities, but Rampage net-minder Warren Hanson turned away everything that came his way. He then kept the game score-less with a big breakaway save with 13 minutes on the clock. Af-ter withstanding Kitimat’s offen-sive � urry, Prince Rupert’s Brock Ward opened the scoring by chip-ping a loose, rolling puck over the glove of Brett Vilness.

The Demons had their oppor-tunities to tie things up, including a � ve-on-three powerplay with 3:30 on the clock, but it would be the Rampage’s Kory Movold who lit the lamp next when he put a back-hander from his knees between the pads of Vilness with 50 seconds left. The goal would be the last of the period and Prince Rupert took a 2-0 lead into the second frame.

The Rampage wasted no time in picking up where they left off at the start of the second. Devin Palmer picked up the puck just outside the Kitimat zone and, af-ter dekeing out both defenders, slid the puck across the Vilness’ pads and into the bottom corner of the net just 51 seconds into the pe-riod for Prince Rupert’s third goal of the game. As Hanson contin-ued to shine in net for Prince Ru-pert, Greg Sheppard put the Ram-page up by three when he went

coast-to-coast from behind his own goal and � red a wrister over Vilness’ glove with 12:07 to play. That would prove to be the � nal nail in the cof� n for Vilness on this night as he was pulled in fa-vour of backup Tom Mildenberger following the goal. Kitimat � nally got on the board less than a min-ute later when Josh Slanina put a puck on net from a bad angle and it somehow squeezed between Han-son and the post. Despite a lot of back and forth play, there would be no more scoring in the period as

Prince Rupert took a 4-1 lead into the third.

The � nal frame was a hard fought, evenly played affair — un-til the � nal minutes when the Ice Demons took a pair of penalties to give Prince Rupert a 5-on-3 pow-erplay with 2:03 to go.

With 1:19 on the clock, Mo-vold scored his second on the game with a shot from the side of the net that hit some bodies and jumped over the pads of Milden-berger and, adding a bit of insult to injury, Jordan Weir lobbed a

weak shot at the net from the top of the circle that found its way past Mildenberger with one second left to play. When the � nal buzzer sounded, the Rampage saluted the hometown crowd and celebrated a 6-1 victory over Kitimat.

“This really showed what coach Roger Atchison has been working on all season. The team is playing the system and playing as a team. The individualism is kept to a minimum and it is paying off ... the plan was to stick to the sys-tem, get the puck in deep and keep up the pressure,” said team presi-dent Ron German, who was be-hind the bench for the game.

“The team is really starting to gel. The lines are staying the same, we’re coming together to play as a team and there is a lot of talking out on the ice now, which helps,” said Palmer.

The Rampage will travel to Terrace on Saturday to play the Terrace River Kings, a team that has won four of their last � ve games, and both German and Palmer expect a tough battle when the teams hit the ice.

“With Terrace, we are going to have to work harder. It’s been a while since we have played that team and they have changed what the team does and how they play in the past ... they’re playing good, fast, clean hockey. They’re going to be a tough team to beat,” said German.

“They’re playing good hock-ey, but we’re going to keep play-ing the same game we play. Our dump and chase is awesome right now, and if we keep to the system we’re going to come out on top ev-ery time,” said Palmer.

Terrace fell 6-5 to Williams Lake on Sunday – recovering from a 4-0 de� cit early on – after beat-ing Lac La Hache 8-3 on Saturday.

Kitimat Winterhawks take first place in Salmon ArmContributedTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

KITIMAT - Recently the Kitimat Ban-tam Rep Winterhawks made the long journey to Salmon Arm and returned home with gold.

The team was down to just nine skaters and one goalie, but it didn’t de-ter them. They came out strong against Revelstoke scoring on the � rst two shifts and powered their way to an 11-1 win.

The second game saw the team run into a hot Windermere goalie, but the battle was ultimately won by an equal-ly hot Kitimat keeper, in a 3-0 shut out.

The third game was a hard hitting battle against Prince George. Prince George tried to wear down Kitimat’s defensemen with some big hits but Kitimat responded with many of their own. Down 2-0 after the � rst period, Kitimat regrouped and came out guns

blazing and took the game with a 5-2 victory.

The semi-� nal saw the team take on the host Salmon Arm, which was a step behind Kitimat the whole time. Another strong second period pro-pelled the team to a 5-1 win and a spot in the � nal against the undefeated Cas-tlegar team. The � rst period was very even going back and forth in a 0-0 tie. The second period saw some huge hits all over the ice as both teams cranked up the physical play. Kitimat pushed the pace and gained the upper hand re-sulting in a 1-0 lead.

The second period ended with Kit-imat executing a perfect set face off and gaining a 2-0 lead.

The third period saw Castlegar come out strong and Kitimat tried to keep the lead at home. A packed are-na saw the lead hold to the 11 minute mark when one of Kitimat’s three de-fensemen was ejected for a hard hit.

The � nal ten minutes was an all out frantic attack that saw Castlegar not only score on the power play, but carry on their momentum and tie the game with � ve minutes to go.

Kitimat then caught a break when a player was hauled down on a break-away and a penalty shot was awarded.

While Kitimat would miss the penalty shot, the delay was crucial as it allowed the remaining players to rest. On the drop of the puck, Kitimat seized their opportunity and scored with three minutes to go.

After some amazing goaltending, blocked shots and great defensive play the team took � rst place with a 3-2 win.

Head coach Tim Minaker was im-pressed how his team was able to play with great discipline. They were the least penalized team in the tourna-ment, while still being able to bring strong physical play when needed.

Volleyball wraps up for TerraceBy Anna KillenTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

TERRACE - Caledonia’s Sr. Girls and Boys volleyball teams are back from pro-vincials, falling short of the results they were hoping for in the standings but rep-resenting the northwest with class and sportsmanship – and holding their own against teams from across the province.

The Sr. Girls lost a crucial match to College Heights to put them in the bot-tom pool of the tournament, and ulti-mately took 14th overall.

“We were close to beating so many of the top contending teams but not quite there in the mental part of the game,” said coach Carmen Didier. “I think the Grade 12s are sad that our team did not have a better placing at provincials but really they are at the beginning stages for a very strong volleyball program in Cale-donia... I hope the seniors recognize how much more important that this is than winning games and tournaments,” she said, noting she is proud of the team’s performance this year, especially their placing at ‘A’ level tournaments.

And the Sr. Boys team placed 18 out of 20 with a two and four record.

“We played hard every game, we didn’t get blown out in any set, lost close matches,” said Sr. Boys coach Rich Clair, noting standout performances by Cam Netzel and Kai Davies.

The team would have bene� tted from more competition throughout the regular season. “We actually matched up against most teams when it came to our play at the net, but where we suffered from lack of experience was in the deep defence and back court coverage.”

And Keel Haldane had a highlight of the tournament, placing sixth in the pro-vincial spike competition.
