Farm land trust proposal plantedNorth Saanich to ask the CRD about forming an acquisition fund

PLEASE SEE:Interim leadership possible, page 4

Steven HeywoodNews staff

North Saanich will ask the Capital Regional District and other municipali-ties to consider creating a regional farm-land trust and acquisition fund.

Sparked by a notice of motion from Mayor Alice Finall in May, District staff presented council with a recommenda-tion on Oct. 6 to ask the CRD and other communities if they would consider acquiring agricultural land and lease it to farmers.

Finall said this request is only the beginning, with the goal of establish-ing a trust to help support local farm-ing. She added a similar trust already exists within the region — The Farm-lands Trust, a not-for-profit organization outside of the municipal scope — which has already expressed an interest in get-ting involved. The difference in this sug-gestion, Finall continued, is a broader mandate and a proposed trust with additional buy-in from municipalities in Greater Victoria.

Councillor Celia Stock said she sup-ports this idea, noting Saanich recently bought back land (Panama Flats) to go into the Agricultural Land Reserve.

“It’s good for all parts of Vancouver Island with arable land,” she said.

election 2014

finall seeks third term in districtSteven HeywoodNews staff

Alice Finall is hoping this municipal election will pro-vide a return to a co-operative, well-led council in the District of North Saanich — like the council she led two terms ago.

Finall is running for a third term as mayor of the com-munity and unlike three years ago when she retained the mayor’s chair by acclamation, she is facing a trio of challeng-ers this time around. She said the encouragement of resi-dents spurred on her decision to seek a third mayoral term — and she admits she wants to get the taste of the last term of office out of her mouth.

Finall was decidedly in the minority on council since 2011, opposing what she calls “unplanned and dramatic urban level increases in resi-dential housing.”

Her stance on this issue, as well as battles between two distinct camps on council, made for sometimes long and combative sessions. The cur-rent term saw Finall replaced

as the community’s director for the Capital Regional Dis-trict by her political oppo-nents, a council that had to undergo mediation to improve their working relationship and a general lack of decorum that caused residents to react neg-atively.

“I kept struggling to reach people with good communi-cation and consultation on major initiatives,” she said.

Her first term as mayor

saw large public meetings on issues such as the proposed Sandown lands development and fire hall upgrade, as well as a return to holding neigh-bourhood meetings. Finall said that she tried to honour that during this current term.

“You can’t legislate good behaviour,” Finall noted. “I tried to always maintain a high level of respect and deco-rum, but the mayor only has one vote. I tried to reinforce the rules but was overruled by council several times.”

Finall said she hopes this election brings a change for the better.

Most of council’s animosity grew out of housing issues in the district. Finall said coun-cil this term made significant changes to the 2007 official community plan. In 2011, Finall discouraged council from undertaking a full review of the OCP — now she said she wants to see the docu-ment put to the community for just that.

On amalgamation and housing policy, Finall says North Saanich residents need to be asked

Handout

Alice Finall says housing policy will be the top issue in North Saanich this fall.

Galey Farms


Coun. Conny McBride said she is concerned with costs associated with the plan, espe-cially to North Saanich,

and would want clari-fication on land main-tenance responsibility. While supportive of the idea, McBride said it’s important for ratepay-ers to know the costs. Coun. Craig Mearns said he’s wary of per-ceived socialized farm-ing and the costs of the project if the CRD is involved, yet in the final vote he supported it.

The only opposition to the recommendation

came from councillor Ted Daly and Dunstan Browne. Browne said he is skeptical about the CRD in the first place, adding giving them carte blanche on some-thing like this needs a second thought.

Daly said he couldn’t support the recom-mendation because no one else is asking for a regional farmland trust and this action only stems from the may-

or’s suggestion back in May. He also noted that the District is in the process of obtain-ing agricultural land in the deal to obtain most of the former Sandown Race Track property. He said farmers aren’t currently asking to use that land.

“Where’s the demand to farm the land com-ing out of (the Sandown deal)?” Daly asked. “I just don’t see it.”

Continued from page 1

Demand for new farm land questioned


Neighbours to a property on Ebor Terrace in North Saanich spoke out against a proposed rezoning of the land from one to two lots but council’s major-ity were unmoved and voted to advance the change.

Laurel Westinghouse, whose mother lives behind the prop-erty, told council on Oct. 6 they were opposed to the rezoning that would allow a second house to be built, essentially cutting off their view and affecting the value of the property.

Councillor Ted Daly said the land in question is subject to a covenant restricting height and floor space of any new building.

“No one is guaranteed a view,” Daly added. “There is a cove-nant in place and on balance, I support the (rezoning) bylaw.”

Coun. Craig Mearns agreed.“We’re not in the business of

guaranteeing people that they’ll always have their view,” he said.

With Daly, Mearns and coun-cillors Conny McBride and Dun-stan Browne forming their usual voting block, that left Mayor Alice Finall and councillor Elsie McMurphy and Celia Stock again

in the minority position.“This is indicative of the

public and my concerns over spot rezoning and its negative impact,” said McMurphy.

She said the historical pattern in the Ebor Terrace area is for view lots, which is now under threat by the amount of rezoning requests coming in.

Daly, however said that’s an overstatement.

“I bet there have been only six or seven subdivision requests there in the last nine years,” he said. “The sky is not falling.”

Finall called the majority’s penchant for spot rezoning “a virus on the OCP.”

Final approval of the rezoning is expected at council’s regular meeting of Oct. 20.

A three-month extension has been granted to the Town of Sidney’s agreement with the Sidney Business Improvement Area Society (SBIAS)to partially fund an event liaison and facilitator contractors.

SBIAS board member Susan Simosko says the memorandum of understanding between the parties expires at the end of December. She said they want to ensure funding car-ried through the November munici-pal election and covers the upcom-ing Family Day weekend in February.

“Given the new council’s term of office (starts after Nov. 15), we are seeking three months’ grace to extend the MoU from January 1 to March 30, 2015,” she said.

The Town’s share of the three-month extension is $6,000. The BIA will cover the remaining $6,000 out of their annual requisition of fees from downtown area businesses.

The events liaison position is cur-rently held by Donna Petrie, the

SBIAS’ executive director. Under the year-long MoU, both the Town and BIA contribute $20,000 for the posi-tion and various contract workers. Simosko said they will hire a contrac-tor to facilitate Family Day events. She added Tom Watson was hired under a short-term contract through December to facilitate their Christ-mas in Sidney program of events and promotions.

Councillor Mervyn Lougher-Goodey said he supports the BIA in this.

“This is one of the most successful projects I’ve seen, as a team effort between the Town and the BIA,” he said.

Coun. Marilyn Loveless added she has witnessed the successful work done by Petrie and said she didn’t want to be the one to put a stop to all the momentum created by the BIA thus far.

Council approved the extension unanimously. Simosko pointed out both parties plan to renegotiate a new memorandum of understanding in March of next year.

Construction plans for a new toll booth a the Anacortes ferry terminal have been approved.

New toll booth to cost $307,425Steven HeywoodNews staff

A new toll booth building at the Anacortes ferry terminal in Sidney will cost $307,425, plus GST.

The Town of Sidney awarded the contract to build the structure to Patterson & Kaercher Con-struction Ltd. Tuesday night. Construction is set to begin in November on the foundation of the new building. It will be located approximately 40 feet east of the existing toll booth, which will con-tinue to operate until the ferry ceases operations for the winter. Staff report the work is expected to be complete by March 27, when the 2015 ferry schedule opens.



Peter Miller has lived for 10 years in North Saanich and chose to live in the community for its ambiance.

It’s that feeling of community Miller says he feels is under threat by the actions of the current council and that’s why he’s running

for mayor on Nov. 15.“I think the people of

North Saanich are fed up with the leadership of the council of the day,” he said.

Miller said the ani-mosity between coun-cillors and bad behav-iour seen over the course of the last term has a lot to do with leadership.

“If performed prop-erly, that seeps down to the other councillors and to staff. Things did get done this last term but at a very slow pace. Better leadership starts at the top.”

Miller considers much of council’s actions in regards to its animosity towards each other this term as questionable and something he hopes to change. The kicker for him, he continued, was the spending of tax

dollars on mediation to help council func-tion better. He said that didn’t work.

“It has been my expe-rience that public feed-back on this has been of frustration, espe-cially in the reputation North Saanich has got-ten as a result.”

Miller admitted he has no previous politi-

cal experience but says he has the leadership skills to bring to the job. Miller spent 33 years at the B.C. Liquor Distribution Branch, as both a liquor store manager and as a spe-cial projects manager across the province.

The change of posi-tion, she said, came after seeing just how far council went in changing local housing policy.

“I had no idea the extent that the major-ity of council wanted to go,” she explained. “People felt blindsided. I don’t think people had any idea this was the direction they wanted to take.”

Community planning and policy direction is now this fall election’s main issue in North Saanich, she said.

“We need to have an OCP review. We can’t revise everything that’s been done, such as existing permit approv-als. Those that have been approved will go ahead. Until oth-ers reach that stage, they could be stopped, depending on council.”

Finall is basing much of her 2014 campaign on holding an OCP review with a specific look at housing pol-icy — from density to affordable options.

District residents will also face a decision at the polls on the ques-tion of amalgamation. North Saanich decided to put a referendum on the ballot, asking “Are you in favour of a study, provincially funded, to investigate the feasibil-ity, costs and implica-tions of amalgamating the three municipalities on the Saanich Penin-sula of Sidney, Central Saanich and North Saa-nich?”

Finall said council is concerned amalga-mation could cause tax increases. Yet, she agreed that residents need to be asked if they approve of the next council seeming more information on the issue. Depending on the result on Nov. 15, further action may proceed.

Finall said her cam-paign this fall is one of seeking good policy direction in North Saa-nich.

“We need good plan-ning for major changes and those decisions made this last term have not been planned. The major threat to rural community is urban sprawl and … the costs of this have not been anticipated.”

Finall, a retired law-yer, was first elected mayor in 2008 and has 14 years of municipal council experience.

Miller said to bring council into a better working relationship, it all starts with the mayor. He said he’s approaching the job with an open mind and no particular agenda. Yet, he said he will not tolerate bad behaviour and try to raise his and the public’s expecta-tions of council. In the end, he hopes such action will bring about efficiencies in how council operates.

While Miller said he doesn’t think North Saanich has serious issues, he agrees hous-ing policy has been top of mind in the commu-nity. Miller added he feels council has been on the right track on housing development, but at too fast a pace.

“If North Saanich had made land rezon-ings on a slower pace over the last 10 years, people probably would not be as up in arms as they have been.”

Miller said the pro-development coun-cil majority pushed through some long-standing housing projects, “if you can call three years being pushed through.”

Miller said he thinks there needs to be more diversity in housing in North Saanich and a review of the offi-cial community plan is needed “to iron out a lot of things.” He is not calling for a full OCP review, but a look at zoning and housing issues.

Miller added he thinks there is no such thing as affordable housing when it comes specifically to market housing. He said more and more people are looking for smaller lots and smaller homes as they maintain busy lives. Subsidized hous-ing is another matter, he said, and suggested council might look at Habitat for Human-ity projects to fill that need.

On the issue of amal-gamation, Miller said he agrees the commu-

nity needs to have a discussion.

“Regardless of your thoughts on it, if you can collect simple infor-mation on it, now is the time to do it.”

He said asking a bal-lot question on Nov. 15 is a good thing and, depending on the out-come, would set in motion information-gathering in case the community wants to proceed further.

“I can’t say this is ever going to hap-pen,” said Miller, “but I believe it’ll be a real

stretch in North Saan-ich.”

• Residents near The Roost Farm Cen-tre continue to com-plain about noise com-ing from the property at the corner of East Saanich and McTav-ish Roads. Speaking during the public par-ticipation period, three residents told council they were frustrated with an apparent lack of enforcement of the District’s noise bylaws.

The residents are wor-ried that a proposal from The Roost to build a new facility, complete with court-yard for events, will only add to the noise issue.

• Mayor Alice Finall reported that during a visit to the Arbutus Nursery recently, she was impressed by the facility’s produc-tion levels. She said the nursery has grown 12 million hemlock seedlings in 2014 and called it “an impres-sive undertaking.”

• Councillor Elsie McMurphy says the District’s new Jubilee Committee, set up to facilitate the celebration of the Dis-trict’s 50th anniversary in 2015, is in the process of creating an internal framework which will come to council for approval soon. She said events are being planned alongside the District’s Heritage Advisory Committee and they are looking for other community events coinciding with the anniversary. The committee, she said, continues to evaluate the cost of holding a jubilee celebration.

• A proposal to seek a relaxation of the

building and plumb-ing bylaw in regards to swimming pool cov-ers, was withdrawn by the applicant.

• A development permit has been approved by coun-cil for the proposed 54-unit multi-family housing project on MacDonald Park Road next to Parkland Sec-ondary School. A 4-3 vote by council means the proponents receive a zoning variance as well, allowing for three 18-unit condo build-ings to exceed the usual height restric-tion by over 3 meters. The variance also reduces a rear prop-erty setback distance

by nearly half. There are three conditions attached to the develop-ment permit: the propo-nents must ensure mini-mal distur-bance in the area (Blue Heron Creek is nearby);

all works must be monitored by environ-mental professionals during construction, and; all construction must adhere to Fisher-ies and Oceans best management practices and B.C. Environment Riparian Area regula-tions.

• Council’s next regular meeting is Oct. 20, 2014.

What’s in Your Beauty Products?

Every day millions of women slap on body moisturizer, apply lipstick or mascara without a second thought about what they are putting on their skin. A study from the UK claims that the average woman applies more than 500 chemicals to her body every day dur-ing her beauty routine.

Why should you be concerned?Chemicals such as parabens (a synthetic preserva-tive in everything from toothpaste to shampoo) and phthalates (a class of chemicals that are found in many “fragranced” beauty products such as lotions, perfumes and deodorants) are classified as xenoestro-gens. Xenoestrogens mimic our natural estrogens cre-ating hormone chaos by increasing the total amount of estrogen, resulting in a condition called estrogen dominance. Estrogen dominance has been implicated in many conditions including: breast and prostate can-cer, obesity, infertility, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, early onset puberty, hormonal acne and PMS.

Xeno-Detox Every Day EstroSense is a comprehensive liver detoxifier that gently supports the elimination of harmful environ-mental toxins and helps to bring back hormone syn-ergy. Along with other key ingredients, EstroSense contains milk thistle which is one of the most re-searched herbs when it comes to liver detoxification and liver cell regeneration. Curcumin, indole-3-car-binol, sulforaphane, calcium-d-glucarate, green tea extract, lycopene and rosemary extract are all very effective for supporting healthy hormone balance.

So starting now, read labels and stay informed, check out The Environmental Working Group website www.ewg.org as well as Campaign for Safe Cosmetics www.safecosmetics.org for more information about how you can protect yourself.

Add EstroSense® with Milk Thistle Extract to your daily routine!

No accounting for spaceSidney approves plan to create commercial space registry


Until now, the Town of Sidney did not keep track of just how many commercial spaces were vacant in its busi-ness community.

That will change after they agreed to contribute $4,000 out of its economic devel-opment fund. They will add that cash to the same amount put up by the Sidney Business Improvement Area Soci-ety (SBIAS). The plan is to create a registry of vacant commercial space. Donna Petrie, the SBIAS’ executive director, says it will pro-vide detailed options for businesses seeking to relocate in Sidney’s downtown area or the West Sidney industrial park. She estimated the project would begin this fall and be com-plete by early 2015.

Councillor Melissa Hailey asked how the registry would be found be people looking for commercial space. Petrie said it would be included in the SBIAS’ website and that of the municipality. The regis-try could also be linked to many other web-sites, Petrie continued,

and kept updated regu-larly by the BIA office.

Coun. Mervyn L o u g h e r - G o o d e y, playing devil’s advo-cate, said it has been reported that Sidney has around 40 empty storefronts out of an estimated 380 busi-nesses operating in town.

“So, that’s around a 10 per cent vacancy rate,” he said, asking if the registry would be keeping track of the actual square footage

of the vacant spaces.Petrie noted that

would be the case and the registry would include photos, the number of parking spaces available and more.

“I wish we had this months ago,” said Coun. Marilyn Love-less.

She said she was troubled by attacks made on Sidney that made it sound like downtown Sidney “was boarded up.”

“But we didn’t have (information like this) at our fingertips ... to be able to stop the innu-endo in its tracks.”

This project approval, noted Chief Administrative Offi-cer Randy Humble, depletes the Town’s economic develop-ment fund. He added, however, that the Town expects to receive around $10,000 in street market revenue this year and that can be used by council.

YOUR VIEW

We do need the city but we also need our green environment, the space, the fresh air, the agricultural land for food production. How should we feed all those people in a time of emergency?

To build more and call it “prog-ress” is very misleading. If the city spreads and creeps over the land and swallows the last remaining green space, everybody will suffer.

We are being told more develop-ment would bring in more money and reduce the tax. The opposite is true. More development will cost money, taxes will rise, crime will increase, air pollution will endanger our health and traffic will become a nightmare.

Drive out to Canora Road and judge for yourself. Is this how you would like your community to look like? This kind of development will only serve the developer, not the community, nor those who can’t afford their own house. In addition, with the future development on San-down land, more Sidney shops will close and the rural atmosphere will be lost.

We all know we can’t trust elec-tion promises. However, to with-draw into our own little world is not a solution either.

Let’s freeze all future develop-ment and demand a full OCP review. No council of the day can change it without the consent of the commu-nity. It’s time to say no to irrespon-sible destruction of former agricul-tural land.

We must take action now before it’s too late. Don’t destroy what was meant to keep us alive. Let’s take back our community and vote for those who protect the land and lis-ten to us residents.

Hildegard HorieNorth Saanich

Vote for the environment I feel the primary responsibility

of our local government, and government at all levels is to ensure that its citizens have clean drinking water, unpolluted air and protection of our land as a food source.

In Sidney, North Saanich and Central Saanich, that also means that we need protection for our ocean water as well. Before we go to the polls, we need to find out who the candidates are and who will work to protect our beautiful peninsula. We all need to go to the all-candidates meetings, ask questions and then vote.

The forums hosted by the Saanich Peninsula Chamber of Commerce would like the questions sent to them ahead of time. Visit www.peninsulachamber.ca for the forum details.

Vote for someone who is concerned about our environment, and is committed to vote and stand up for us on this important issue.

Judy Gwynn-WilliamsSidney

Remember the coastline I have six grandchildren. This

past Thanksgiving weekend we all took turns listing the things we are thankful for.

I am proud to say that our family cares very much about the environment. We have a beautiful province situated on the north and west coat of the country. It is worthy of protection because much of it is unique and endangered, including the kelp forests, sponge reefs, salmon breeding areas and whales.

We, the public, must not forget Enbridge, who want to send mega

super tankers down our coast, and Kinder Morgan, who want to double the amount of oil carried through their pipelines, are still an issue. A spill is inevitable.

In this fall’s municipal elections, please find out which of the candidates for mayor and council will send the message from us, the people of the Saanich Peninsula, to say no to increased tanker intrusion and risk. Let’s defend the coast. Be diligent, attend meetings and forums. Your voice will be heard.

Lynda ComberSidney

What is common good? Re: Oil protest a slippery slope

for cities (B.C. Views, Oct. 7).Tom Fletcher’s analysis of

jurisdiction regarding pipeline expansion and oil distribution in B.C. ignores one important fact. I have one postal address and one primary residence, one planet on which to live. I also am governed by three political jurisdictions that are supposed to manage “the common good” on behalf of all. None do so. I pay taxes and idealize that some official somewhere will handle environmental issues in sustainable ways. Not so.

No wonder I am an alienated citizen, disgusted with public sector overexpenditures and irresponsibilities regarding basic survival. I do vote! And I am delighted that some new faces and names are appearing on ballot lists.

My hope is that other voters will listen to these unknown candidates. Somewhere among them are future leaders who will help guide us to a more viable Canada.

Don’t destroy what keeps us alive

New land trust a hard sellW

ill North Saanich’s idea of a new trust created to acquire more farmland in Greater Victoria take root?

That is a very good question. While the concept of a region-wide farmland trust and acquisition trust seems to be coming from the right place, it just might not be realistic.

On the surface of the problem lies the fact that farmland, when it becomes available, is very expensive. Longtime farming families sometimes use that property value to finance their retirement. Unless a farmer, or farming company, has the capital to take it on, that land will get a lot of pressure by land developers.

By no means is that example the hard and fast rule to farmland exchange, but it’s generally accepted that new farmers trying to obtain enough land

to make their business profitable are few and far between.

The local food movement certainly makes the idea of acquiring more or existing farmland before it’s lost sounds reasonable. Yet, due to that cost, it will take some doing to convince regional municipalities to contribute enough to make the program worthwhile.

In North Saanich, the district has the potential to gain farmland in a pair of land deals. The former Sandown race track is proposing to give the municipality most of its property in exchange for a significant commercial development area close to the highway. The owners of Glen Meadows Golf and Country Club are proposing to close the course, shave off a bit of land for large lot housing and donate the lion’s share to the district as additional farmland.

Both proposals could be good for area farmers but as pointed out by Councillor Ted Daly this week, there doesn’t seem to be anyone chomping at the bit to farm it.

To be fair, it’s still early and those projects have not yet begun. The future of that land — and North Saanich’s regional land acquisition trust — is still up in the air.

There doesn’t seem to be anyone chomping at the bit to farm it

In October, we give thanks for our blessings. Thanks to the Pen-insula News Review for making an important difference in our com-munity.

The write up in the paper “Having a Grand Time” is much appreci-ated.

Ev WigginsPeace Lutheran Church

A very spe-cial bouquet to the staff at the Mary Winspear Centre for their patience and support, always with smiles as they facilitated the installation of my modest art exhibit in one of the foyer display cases. Their help was invaluable, too, in help-ing me plan the opening reception for friends and family. We are so very fortu-nate to have such a cultural facil-ity in our community.

M. Joanne Taylor

The teachers at Sidney Elemen-tary School would like to sincerely thank our community for the over-whelming support you demon-strated to us while we were on the picket line. The countless waves, smiles, and honks were uplifting every day.

Thank you to the many students, families and community members who stopped by to chat, ask ques-tions, see how we were doing and drop off goodies.

Thank you also to our CUPE col-leagues for walking by our side and thank you to our administra-tors for taking such good care of us with drinks and shelter. We will miss greeting and talking to our local seniors and neighbours as

they walk to and from Sidney each day, but we are all very happy to be back at school!

Staff

I recently absentmindedly forgot my bank/cheque portfolio (with a large cheque to be deposited) on top of my car. It apparently rode

happily up there for a few kilo-meters before flying

of onto the side of Wain Road near

Russell Nursery. I would like

to express my gratitude to two

good samari-tans for bail-ing me out of my dilemma. Firstly I’d like

to thank the woman who apparently fol-

lowed me into Sidney and anony-

mously left a note on my windshield telling

me where I had lost it. Secondly, thanks to Tyler Hasebe who picked it up and ultimately called me and waited to meet and return it to me (on his way home at the end of the day). Thanks to you both!

Norm Friesen

I’d like to extend a huge thank you to the Town of Sidney for put-ting in the new corner at Canora Road and Ocean Avenue. It has greatly helped those who have driveways along Ocean Avenue to safely enter and exit.

Sidney’s Kickoff to Christmas is a little more than a month away and organizers with the Sidney Busi-ness Improvement Area Society (SBIAS) are promising a little bit of wonder to celebrate the season.

Nov. 21 will see the official launch of Christ-mas in Sidney, says Donna Petrie, execu-tive director of the SBIAS. she and board member Erin Bremner have been planning a seasonal program of events, based around the height of the holi-day shopping season. On that day, Petrie said they’re going to have a Christmas Grotto at the corner of Beacon Avenue and Fifth Street near Alexander’s Cof-fee. This will be a cen-tral place where fami-lies can visit Santa, get

their gifts wrapped and more.

“It’s going to be a magical, festive and fun space to celebrate the season and help

encourage more people to come to Sidney,” Pet-rie said.

The Grotto is just the tip of the iceberg. The SBIAS is encour-

aging local businesses to stay open with extended hours on Thursday nights. Many businesses, Petrie said, will stay open until 8 p.m. This will coincide with a variety of activi-ties being planned — including horse and carriage rides between 5 and 8 p.m. in the downtown area. Other ideas for the Thursday night shopping exten-sion include carollers, window decorations and more. Petrie added the Town is involved and may participate more closely, but noted it’s early days yet.

“I’ve never seen better cooperation between the Town and what is essentially a vol-unteer group,” added SBIAS board member Susan Simosko.

Alongside the Kickoff to Christmas, the SBIAS is putting out Sidney’s Christmas Wish Book. Akin to the famous holi-day shopping catalog, Petrie said the SBIAS product will feature pages of event sched-ules, a calendar cover-ing things to see and do across the Saanich Pen-insula and more.

“It really will be the guide to Christmas,” Petrie said, noting the Wish Book will be dis-tributed into Victoria as well.

The holiday season, she continued, is an important one, both for businesses and resi-dents. The SBIAS wants to ensure a full experi-ence to people while they visit downtown Sidney.

Artist Philip Buyten-dorp will show a large collection of new paint-ings at Peninsula Gal-lery this weekend.

Buytendorp was born in Brandon, Mani-toba into a family of respected artists.

A one-time resident of Piers Island, Buyten-dorp went on extended painting trips with his father throughout his boyhood, travelling throughout the prai-ries and the Canadian Shield.

He then studied art at the Brandon Allied Arts Center in 1978/79.

From 1981 to ‘86, Buytendorp worked in construction in Cal-gary, but he spent his weekends sketching and painting the land-scapes of the Rocky Mountain foothills.

Soon after, he would move to the Fraser Val-ley and start a five year apprenticeship under the direction of his father.

An accomplished outdoorsman and mari-

ner, Buytendorp’s work is significantly influ-enced by the Group of Seven.

Bold brush strokes and a rich colour pal-ette make his paintings distinctive, said Penin-sula Gallery owner, Jon-athan Jia.

Buytendorp, who has been showing his work at Peninsula Gallery since 1997, has pieces that feature west coast landscapes, scenes of the B.C. interior as well

as some prairie scenes. He first started show-

ing his work at Penin-sula Gallery in 1997.

The artist’s reception takes place tomorrow, Saturday, Oct. 18 from 1 to 4 p.m. and the show will continue through until Nov. 2.

For more informa-tion, see pengal.com or call 250-655-1722.

THE ARTS


SIDNEY – This month, Elvis imperson-ator Pete Paquette and Rudy and the Angels Showband will bring a brand new show to the Winspear Centre.

Paquette is an inter-national multi-award winning Elvis tribute artist. He was voted Best Performer in the Las Vegas Elvis Festival and he has also claimed numerous titles across Canada and the US including being two-time Collingwood Elvis Festival Grand Cham-pion, Toronto Elvis Fes-tival Grand Champion, and he was ranked one of top 10 tribute art-ists in the world, a title acquired at the 2009 Ultimate Elvis Competi-tion organized by Elvis Presley Enterprises in Memphis, Tennessee.

Paquette’s new show, Elvis — The Moments, brings audiences back in time to relive Pres-

ley’s music. The show offers an authentic and energetic musical experience that show-cases some of the most memorable moments of the King’s live per-formances, from his early years of Rock and Roll in the 50s to his explosive energy as he returned to perform live on stage in Las Vegas during the 70s.

Supporting Pauqette will be the Rudy and

the Angels Showband hailing from Toronto.

The show takes place Monday, Oct. 27 at 7:30 p.m. in the Charlie White Theatre at the Mary Winspear Centre.

Tickets are $39 at the Mary Winspear box office at marywinspear.ca or by calling 250-656-0275. For more infor-mation on the show, see paquetteproduc-tions.com.

If you have to haul, do it in styleDEL MAR, California.It’s a quintessential SoCal (Southern California) morning.The marine layer is in full effect; blocking a would-be gorgeous sunrise. Yet that doesn’t stop avid sports enthusiasts from taking a run along the beach. Or taking to the water for some morning wave action.Nor does it stop couples from walking arm-in-arm, with their hands occupied by their morning coffee, and their midsize breed of pooch following close by. However, something does turn their heads.A host of all-new 2015 midsize trucks have them perplexed. They’ve nev-er seen these kinds of Canyons or Colorados gracing the streets before and wonder what all the commotion is about.Then again, it’s not uncommon to see midsized trucks in this part of the world. In fact, they’re a dime a dozen. Most are outfitted with surf racks, toolboxes or have gear loaded in the bed. They are put to good use.Anita Burke, GM’s chief vehicle engineer of midsize trucks, explained what makes this category of relatively small truck popular. The versatility and usability of these trucks appeal to small business owners, families or even outdoor lovers.

With a 12.5-metre turn-ing radius – which we put to the test when we want to make a U-turn to take some photos – it’s quite impressive. Furthermore, it’s the all-in-one midsize truck without compromise. It has the segment’s best horsepower thanks to two great engines. The first being a 2.5L, 4-cylinder with 200 hp and 191 lb-ft of torque, the next being a 3.6L, V6 with 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. Both engines are paired to

a 6-speed automatic transmission; a 6-speed manual is available on select extended cab 2WD modelsCome 2015, a 2.8L Duramax Turbo-Die-sel is scheduled to join in the engine lineup.Want to tow a couple of dirt bikes, or mount a couple of kayaks on the rear? Sure! Not a problem. As I drove through Del Mar with a trailer hitched to the back that carried two incredibly clean dirt bikes, I barely felt they were there. The V6-endowed Chevy Colorado (or GMC Canyon) tows up to 3,175 kg (7,000 lbs.) with the trailering package, so it has ample oomph to get it up some tough grades without breaking a sweat.When you want to access the bed – regardless of trim – they all come with

a standard CornerStep rear bumper. You’ll also find 13 standard tie-down locations throughout the bed that you can use with available, movable cargo tie-down rings.Furthermore, the 2015 Colorado’s con-figurations are available in an extended cab model with a 6-foot bed, a crew cab with a 5-foot bed and a crew cab with a 6-foot bed. With the tailgate down, the 6-foot bed allows hauling of 8-foot-long items.Even though both trucks are built on GM’s Global mid-size truck platform, they are targeted at two different buyers.The GMC Canyon has more upscale features and a lavish cabin – some-thing I wouldn’t have said before when it comes to midsize trucks – while the Colorado is more utilitarian in nature. No matter how you slice it, both of these trucks have impressive features.One is its quietness. Whether driving

the four or six-cylinder variants, no rattles, bangs or buzzing were heard. I actually couldn’t believe my ears as to how serene the cabin was. I guess the triple door seals are doing their job and doing it well.The transmission had a smoothness to it and the 8-inch touchscreen featuring Text Messaging Alerts and Siri Eyes Free are a bonus.If you’re just hauling yourself, or a pair of jet skis around back, the GMC Canyon and Chevrolet Colorado can do the job. And they do it very well. Pricing for the Chevrolet Colorado starts at an MSRP of $19,900 for the four-cylinder with the extended cab. The GMC Canyon has a starting MSRP of $20,600 (both exclude a destination charge of $1,695).

Camry undergoes major updateBy Zack Spencer

Charlotte, NC – The launch for the heavily updated Toyota Camry took place here in the heart of NASCAR country.Along the drive route, there were several NASCAR stops, one at the Hall of Fame, and another at Joe Gibbs Racing and a third at the Charlotte Motor Speedway. This was all to emphasize just how American the Camry has become. The chief engineer of the 2015 Camry is from Michigan, not Japan, as was the case with the rest of the crew that updated over 2000 parts on this latest sedan. It is the most popular passenger car in North America and number one in the United States. However, that is not the case in Canada, where it lies third in the Toyota lineup behind the Corolla and RAV4.

LooksWhen a car is typically refreshed, the designers add a new front bumper, grille headlights and rear taillights and call it a day. Not the case here, the 2015 Toyota Camry has all-new sheet metal, providing a sleeker and more eye-catch-ing design. The wheelbase remains the same length but the track, side-to-side has been widened for more stability. The overall length is only slightly longer, in the nose, to help achieve the more polished look. The interesting thing is this new more youthful design actually makes the car look smaller, mostly due to the less slab-sided look used in the previous car and the tightly wrapped lines and shapes. There is a new trim level in the Camry lineup, the XSE, sportier looking trim that enabled Toyota to lower the price of the, still sporty, SE trim by $2,000 to $24,990. In addition the SE trim has been added to the Hybrid model, enabling buyers of that efficient car to also enjoy a more distinctive design. InsideInside, the refresh focuses more on ease of use and refined materials. The top of the dash is the only carry-over part, which is still a soft touch material with French stitching. What has been added is faux suede on the doors with the ability to get two-tone seats in the Camry, also with faux suede, but the updated seats are only in the new XSE

trim. The centre stack now has bigger buttons and rotary dials for ease of use, a welcome update for older buyers. To appeal to younger intenders, the Camry has the latest connectivity and on the top XLE models a wireless charging system in the centre cubby but the phone either needs a special sleeve or integrated wireless charging technology.

DriveNot just happy to make a more appealing looking car, the engineers also went about improving the ride, handling and noise inside the car. The track of the wheels has been widened and the lower end models also get wider wheels for improved feedback but the biggest change is to the steering feel. The Camry is equipped with electric power steering and these systems have been notorious for poor feedback to the driver. This new 2015 Camry is a big step foreword. Straight-line stability has been improved and the car, with a more rigid platform and slightly stiffer springs and shocks, is now sending good feedback to the driver.

VerdictWhat haven’t been updated are the engine and trans-mission choices. The same 178hp 2.5L 4-cylinder with a 6-speed automatic does duty along with an optional 3.5L V6 putting out 268hp. The 2015 Camry looks much better, drives with more confidence and has a pleasant interior. With the help of NASCAR, the Camry will remain a North American staple, this time with a lot more style.

DrivewayBC.caMaking sense of the new fuel consumption rating systemBy Bob McHugh

A new fuel con-sumption rating system kicks in for all 2015 model year new cars and light trucks. The Govern-ment of Canada has finally approved the five-cycle test method, already used in the US since 2008. In general, those predicted fuel consumption figures on the EnerGuide label (on every new vehicle) will increase somewhere in the 10 to 20 per cent range, compared to a similar, or even identical, 2014 model year vehicle.As before, vehicle manufacturers are re-quired to submit fuel consumption data to the federal government based on controlled laboratory testing procedures. This is done in order to produce results that are consis-tent and repeatable and includes the use of standardized fuels, test cycles and calcula-tions. The underlying objective is to give a Canadian consumer making a new vehicle purchase decision an accurate and reliable way to compare fuel consumption.The three additional test cycles, added to the old two-cycle testing method, include cold temperature operation, air conditioner usage, and driving at higher speeds with more rapid acceleration and braking. Cars, roads and motoring habits have changed over the years and the new five-cycle test was designed to better simulate modern driving.That said, and also as before, an owner’s actual on-road fuel consumption is still likely to be different, although closer to the new government test numbers. Real life fuel consumption not only varies depending on how and where you drive, it can also change with traffic, the weather, after dark and a bunch of other less obvious factors. If you want to check how your current vehicle would fare (and compare) in the five-cycle test, Natural Resources Canada (nrcan.gc.ca) has an online calculation tool

that gives approxi-mate fuel economy numbers for vehicles going all the way back to 1995. This is the web link: http://oee.nrcan.gc.ca/fcr-rcf/public/index-e.cfmThe more fuel a ve-hicle burns is directly

related to the amount of carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, it pumps out the tailpipe. So, not only does a more fuel efficient vehi-cle cost less to operate, it also has reduced environmental impact. Fuel economy now transcends the small car market and is an important concern for buyers in just about every vehicle market segment. It’s also why fuel economy has become an increasingly important in the marketing of new vehicles, especially in the high-volume market segments. The car business is a highly competitive one and, as you might expect, auto makers try to build vehicles that do well, and get low numbers, in the government fuel economy test. Major technological changes are also happening in the fuel economy race. Smaller and more efficient gasoline engines are available, hybrid vehicle sales are taking off, plug-in hybrid vehicles are becoming more common and the pure electric vehicle is a competitive production reality. So, even the term “fuel consumption” may become obsolete, sometime in the future. Right now, however, if you walk into a new car dealership showroom, you’ll probably find both 2014 and 2015 editions of the same model vehicle for sale, side-by-side. If you don’t notice the asterisked note under the EnerGuide fuel consumption figure on the 2015, it’s easy to assume that it’s a less fuel efficient vehicle and that’s almost certainly not correct. The 2015 EnerGuide fuel consumption figure is simply more realistic and closer to what you’re likely to experience during day-to-day driving in the real world.

SIDNEY — Sidney’s Deputy Fire Chief has been named the com-munity’s new fire boss.

Brett Mikkelsen was announced this week as the new fire Chief at the Sidney Volun-teer Fire Department. He will replace current Chief Jim Tweedhope, who is set to retire from the job on Nov. 3.

“I’m honored and humbled to be selected as Sidney’s next Fire Chief,” stated Mikkelsen in a media release.

“Chief Tweedhope has charted an excel-lent path for our fire department and has been a true friend and mentor to me. I look forward to, and feel very fortunate to be leading a great group of volunteers dedicated to helping the residents of Sidney.”

Mikkelson started with the local depart-

ment in 1996. He was appointed Deputy Chief in February of 2012. Mikkelsen holds a Graduate Certificate in Project Management from Royal Roads Uni-versity, is a licensed paramedic and has completed the Fire Offi-cer Program with the Justice Institute of B.C.

“I speak for everyone on council when I say

that we will miss Chief Tweedhope but wish him all the best as he moves on to the next phase of his life,” stated Mayor Larry Cross. “He has been an exemplary leader who is admired and respected by all of the men and women who work with him, as well as by council and staff.”

Cross noted in the media release that the municipality has the utmost confidence in Mikkelsen.

Tweedhope began with the local depart-ment in 1989, working his way up to Fire Pre-vention Officer, then Deputy Chief in 2010. He was appointed Chief in August 2011.

“I am extremely pleased with the appointment of Brett Mikkelsen as Sidney’s next fire Chief,” said Tweedhope. “With his

education and com-mitment to the Sidney Volunteer Fire Depart-ment, I am confident

that under Brett’s lead-ership, the department will continue to move forward in a positive

direction to provide the best fire protection services possible for the residents of Sidney.

I wish Brett all the best in his new position.”

Peter Lewis estimates there will be 650 people coming to Sidney in May of next year to cele-brate the rhododendron, contributing a significant amount of money to the local economy.

The western branch of the American Rhododen-dron Society is holding its 2015 convention at the Mary Winspear Centre. Lewis, representing the Society at Sidney council this week, listed off the potential benefits to the community as he asked town council for a donation towards a street ban-ner program.

Lewis said the convention had been courted by the City of Victoria as well, but the Mary Winspear Centre management offered better persuasion to the organizers to come to Sidney, he said.

“This will focus more of the delegates in Sidney, rather than being spread out throughout Victoria,” he said.

Lewis pointed to statistics from the Mary Win-spear Centre that show visitors to the area spend an estimated $380 per day — on things such as hotel rooms, meals and more. Over the three days of the conference in May, Lewis said the event could see that large financial infusion infusion into the local economy.

Councillors went for it and agreed to fund the banner program to the tune of $4,200. The money will help fund the creation of the banners and cover the cost of their design, featuring the so-called Champagne Lace’ rhodo, which Lewis said will be revealed for the first time publicly during the convention. The municipality will also cover the cost of municipal staff time in putting them up and taking them down.

As well, Sidney plans on proclaiming May 2015 as Rhododendron Month in the community.

A Halloween-themed fundraising barbecue in Sidney will support Baby Piper and her family.

Piper Blinko, daugh-ter of Sidney Pier Hotel employee Shawnie Blinko, is only a couple of months old and is already in the fight of her life.

Piper was born with malfunctioning kidneys in September, and was immediately airlifted to Vancouver and B.C. Children’s Hospital where her and her fam-

ily have been staying since.

Piper’s kidneys are now functioning, but she faces a slew of other health issues as a result.

“Once again another local family has been hit with their little baby being born with severe health issues,” said Sid-ney Town Crier, Kenny Podmore, who is spear-heading the fundraiser.

“We are so fortunate to have a wonderful medical system here

in Canada with amaz-ing doctors, nurses and state of the art technol-ogy.

“However the sys-tem does not cover all the associated costs that come in situa-tions like this,” Pod-more explained, adding that funds raised dur-ing the barbecue will go towards to the Sid-ney family’s travel and accommodation costs while at Children’s Hos-pital.

The Burgers for Baby Piper barbecue will take place Saturday, Oct. 25 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Sidney Save-On Foods.

“There will be Hal-loween activities for the kids and a silent auction for the adults,” said Podmore.

Local TV personality Ed Bain will be flipping burgers and singer Tom Watson will be provid-ing entertainment, he added.

“We have the oppor-tunity to help this fam-ily so I urge anyone who can to come and support this event.”

VICTORIA — Members of the Royal Astronomy Society of Canada (RASC) Victoria Centre plan to have their telescopes and viewing equipment out on Mount Tolmie for the solar eclipse that will be visible from Victoria the afternoon of Thurs-day, October 23.

The moon will move across the face of the sun as seen from Greater Victoria starting at 1:32 p.m. that day and ending at 4:19 p.m.

At the midpoint of the eclipse at 2:58 p.m., about 55 per cent of the sun’s surface will be cov-ered by the moon, as seen from Victoria.

An RASC media release noted this week that it is impor-tant that solar eclipses only be viewed through specially filtered telescopes or filtered glasses. Looking at solar eclipses with-out this equipment could result in serious damage to the eyes.

RASC members will use the

proper filters when viewing the eclipse.

It should also be noted that even with more than half the sun being covered, the eclipse will not be noticeable to people who are not viewing the sun.

RASC Victoria members will gather on top of Mount Tolmie to view the eclipse if weather permits throughout the length of the eclipse, and it is possi-ble that RASC members may set up their telescopes elsewhere around Greater Victoria.

Telescopes will be fitted with solar filters, and glasses with solar filters will be available for use.

Ebola response lacking, warns nurses union headJeff NagelBlack Press

B.C.’s nurses are legiti-mately scared about Ebola but haven’t been adequately trained to safely treat patients and avoid risking themselves or spreading the deadly virus to the broader population, according to their union presi-dent.

B.C. Nurses Union presi-dent Gayle Duteil detailed her concerns Tuesday in a letter to regional health authorities after three suspected Ebola cases turned up in Lower Mainland hospitals but were ultimately ruled out.

Duteil said Fraser Health and other health regions are not ready to respond to the arrival of an Ebola case.

A union survey found nurses in units designated to isolate and treat Ebola patients haven’t yet been suf-

ficiently trained in using pro-tective gear to avoid infection.

Duteil is calling for immedi-ate action to plug gaps in Ebola response planning, along with detailed simulations for front line staff.

“This cannot wait until there is another suspected case in an ER within the prov-ince,” she said. “If the health system wants our members to put themselves at risk of expo-sure to a deadly disease we expect that every reasonable precaution be put in place on a priority basis.”

Provincial Health Officer Dr. Perry Kendall acknowledged more must be done and said he will co-chair a committee to review protocols and coor-dinate efforts by the health authorities.

“Our first priority will be on establishing the processes to familiarize or refamiliarize health care workers with per-

sonal protective equipment so if they have to use it they can use it safely and confidently,” Kendall told reporters.

He said health authori-ties may disagree with the BCNU assessment that they are unprepared. But Kendall said the handling of each of the three recent suspect cases – two of which were hospital-ized in Surrey and Vancou-ver before being ruled out – turned up issues in need of improvement. He described those cases as low to medium risk.

The risk from Ebola to the general public in B.C. is “van-

ishingly small, if not zero,” Kendall added.

Although suspect patients in B.C. to date have turned out not to have Ebola, public health officials expect health workers here will be con-fronted with the real thing.

More suspect cases are also likely since about 40 people a month arrive here from West Africa and some are likely to display flu-like symptoms – two factors that trigger isola-tion and further assessment.

The BCNU letter warns the union has advised members to only care for suspected Ebola patients if they’ve been provided proper equipment and training.

It also urges improved pro-cedures on cleaning and han-dling garbage, protocols on handling the deceased and asks what contingency plans will be in place when ERs are already full.

Provincial Health Officer says more must be done to prepare health workers

“This cannot wait until there is another suspected case in an ER within the province.”

Privately developed run-of-river, wind and solar power remains a possible alternative to a third dam on the Peace

River, Energy Minister Bill Bennett says.

Bennett was respond-ing to this week’s deci-sion by the federal and B.C. environment min-istries to recommend construction of the Site C dam, which would flood another 83 km of the Peace River valley near Fort St. John.

Bennett said some people have incorrectly interpreted the envi-ronmental assessment certificates as a green light for the project.

Studies of natural gas power generation and private clean energy projects are continuing, and a recommendation to cabinet will be made in November, Bennett said.

Studies have shown equivalent natural gas power plants would be “marginally cheaper” than Site C, which would provide 8.5 per cent of the province’s electricity supply but would require amend-ing the province’s clean

energy legislation.“I believe there would

be significant public opposition to utilizing gas to generate all of that electricity. It’s not totally off the table but it isn’t something that I think has legs.”

Bennett said the cost of wind, solar and other renewable energy is dropping, but private alternatives would have to include the costs of power lines and backup power for intermittent sources.

Jeff NagelBlack Press

B.C. cities have once again demanded Health Canada give them the addresses of licensed medical mari-juana growers so they can mount inspections in the name of public safety.

The City of Abbots-

ford recently repeated a request made in the past at Union of B.C. Municipalities confer-ences, despite opposi-tion from some dele-gates over privacy con-cerns.

Cities fear unpermit-ted alterations, illegal rewiring and mould pose a risk not just to current residents but

those who may in the future buy former grow-ops that aren’t remedi-ated.

“The safety of our residents and the safety of people buying these homes has to be para-mount,” Abbotsford Mayor Bruce Banman told the most recent UBCM convention, held in Whistler last month.

The federal govern-ment is moving to a commercial mail order model of medical mari-juana production but that strategy is on hold pending court chal-lenges from medical pot users.

While Ottawa expects the legacy medical pot growers to voluntarily comply with the change and stop growing their own plants – if the new sys-tem is upheld – many cities doubt that will

happen given the num-ber of licensed users.

Banman said there are 829 licensed medi-cal growers in Abbots-ford and more than 900 – representing 20 per cent of the homes – in nearby Mission.

“That’s a lot of glau-coma in my books,” said Banman, who has been a steady critic of the federal govern-

ment’s refusal to iden-tify the sites.

He said there are just four Health Canada inspectors to check licensed medical home grows in all of western Canada, adding they could not inspect all of the licensed sites in Abbotsford alone if they were dedicated to his city for a year.

Jones, Glyn June 22, 1910 -September 25, 2014

“A Full Life – Well Lived”

Born in Camarthen, Wales, Glyn at age 18 became a Maroni Wireless Offi cer, emigrated to Halifax, N.S. and started his career as a Radio Offi cer on a steam fi shing trawler. In 1939 at the outbreak of WW2 he became a Flight Navigator/Radio Offi cer with the then civilian Canadian Pacifi c sponsored Atlantic Ferry Organization (AtFerO) prior to it being absorbed into the later RAF Ferry Command. He crewed the fi rst Hudson Bomber delivered transatlantic non-stop from Canada to Prestwick, Scotland, serving a combined Service total of 10 years. He delivered many different types of aircraft to most War Zones.

Post War, Glyn worked for Air France overseeing the delivery of airliners from Lockheed, Burbank, CA. Contract ended, he joined Lockheed, rising to Senior Design Engineer. Glyn and wife Ruth, upon retirement, moved to Victoria, BC.

Glyn will be long remembered as a proud Welshman, true gentleman, wonderful friend who was kind, self-effacing and a lover of animals. He left a sense of his joy for life in all fortunate to know him.

Many thanks to the Tidman Family and staff at The Peninsula in Sidney for their wonderful care and love during his time with them.

Privately developed run-of-river, wind and solar power remains a possible alternative to a third dam on the Peace

River, Energy Minister Bill Bennett says.

Bennett was respond-ing to this week’s deci-sion by the federal and B.C. environment min-istries to recommend construction of the Site C dam, which would flood another 83 km of the Peace River valley near Fort St. John.

Bennett said some people have incorrectly interpreted the envi-ronmental assessment certificates as a green light for the project.

Studies of natural gas power generation and private clean energy projects are continuing, and a recommendation to cabinet will be made in November, Bennett said.

Studies have shown equivalent natural gas power plants would be “marginally cheaper” than Site C, which would provide 8.5 per cent of the province’s electricity supply but would require amend-ing the province’s clean

energy legislation.“I believe there would

be significant public opposition to utilizing gas to generate all of that electricity. It’s not totally off the table but it isn’t something that I think has legs.”

Bennett said the cost of wind, solar and other renewable energy is dropping, but private alternatives would have to include the costs of power lines and backup power for intermittent sources.

Jeff NagelBlack Press

B.C. cities have once again demanded Health Canada give them the addresses of licensed medical mari-juana growers so they can mount inspections in the name of public safety.

The City of Abbots-

ford recently repeated a request made in the past at Union of B.C. Municipalities confer-ences, despite opposi-tion from some dele-gates over privacy con-cerns.

Cities fear unpermit-ted alterations, illegal rewiring and mould pose a risk not just to current residents but

those who may in the future buy former grow-ops that aren’t remedi-ated.

“The safety of our residents and the safety of people buying these homes has to be para-mount,” Abbotsford Mayor Bruce Banman told the most recent UBCM convention, held in Whistler last month.

The federal govern-ment is moving to a commercial mail order model of medical mari-juana production but that strategy is on hold pending court chal-lenges from medical pot users.

While Ottawa expects the legacy medical pot growers to voluntarily comply with the change and stop growing their own plants – if the new sys-tem is upheld – many cities doubt that will

happen given the num-ber of licensed users.

Banman said there are 829 licensed medi-cal growers in Abbots-ford and more than 900 – representing 20 per cent of the homes – in nearby Mission.

“That’s a lot of glau-coma in my books,” said Banman, who has been a steady critic of the federal govern-

ment’s refusal to iden-tify the sites.

He said there are just four Health Canada inspectors to check licensed medical home grows in all of western Canada, adding they could not inspect all of the licensed sites in Abbotsford alone if they were dedicated to his city for a year.

Cities want medical pot grows revealed“That’s a lot of glaucoma in my books.”

Private power an alternative to Site C, says Bennett

Co-op housing creates a tight-knit community, says a Friendship Housing Co-op resident


Residents of Sidney’s Friendship Housing Co-operative pitch in and work together to create a sense of community.

That’s the verdict on co-op living by Lisa Wilson who has been living in Sidney at Friendship Housing Co-operative for more than three years.

Wilson has spent eight years in similar co-ops around the province and said what keeps her coming back is how the residents have a say in how the co-operative is run.

“It’s better than renting, she said in a recent interview with the News Review. “We have secure housing and no landlord but ourselves.”

Located on Fifth Street, the Friend-ship Housing Co-Op is a collection of units ranging in size from two to four bedrooms.

Fiona Jackson, communications director with the Co-operative Hous-ing Foundation of B.C. told the PNR last month that it’s one of 262 co-ops in the province and the 34 on Vancouver Island. Most of those, she continued, are located throughout Greater Victoria.

Members of a housing co-op, Jackson said, get security of tenure, meaning they can stay as long as they pay their housing charge and follow the rules.

Residents are also expected to take part on the local board of direc-tors, helping create a better sense of ownership. In the case of Friend-

ship, it is a non-profit business, man-aged by its members.

For Wilson, she said residents there pay around $1,100 a month, but that varies. Rents only go up, she continued, when there’s mainte-nance issues.

“We can usually (keep costs) at just below market prices in Sidney,” Wilson said, “generally speaking.”

That means there is almost always a waiting list of people wanting a unit in the co-operative. With 15 units in all, and a few that have sub-sidized housing charges, demand is there, she said.

Wilson said she has been on the co-op’s board of directors for two terms — the first time she has served on a co-op board.

“We are legally and financially responsible for running the co-op,” she explained. “It has been a steep learning curve.”

Keeping up with unit maintenance is only the beginning of the duties overseen by the board of directors, she said. They must stay on top of finances, approve capital expenses and follow their 10-year plan.

“It’s very involved. It’s worth it for me because you get to know your neighbours very well. For me, that’s very important.”

Wilson said Friendship has a strong community atmosphere. When she was living between co-operatives before finding a unit in Sidney, she said she really missed that.

“You have to find solutions to problems together and you have to get along.”

One of the questions she hears the most is from people asking if Friendship Housing Co-operative is a commune. Wilson said it’s not, in any way.

“We’re just a group of home own-ers.”

Like-minded home owners, she added.

“There’s some really great people here.”

Wilson said she would not have been able to afford to live in Sidney if it wasn’t for Friendship. She said she loves being a part of the entire Sidney community and enjoys living close to everything she and her fam-ily needs.

“It’s got that small-town feel. We have everything here.”

The apparent slowing of global warming in recent years is likely due to effects of increased particulate and other conventional pollution, par-ticularly from thermal coal use in Asia, says B.C. MLA and climate scientist Andrew Weaver.

Weaver was asked to respond to a report issued last month by University of Guelph environmental economist Ross McKitrick, a long-time critic of cli-mate change models and a senior fellow at the Fra-ser Institute. Reviewing temperature data used by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, McKitrick notes that data for the last two decades have shown less warming than was predicted by most climate models.

McKitrick does not challenge the conclusion that human-generated carbon dioxide traps heat in the atmosphere. But he argues that the uncer-tain effect of rising emissions should cause policy-makers to wait for clarity before “making any irre-versible climate policy commitments, in order to avoid making costly decisions that are revealed a short time later to have been unnecessary.”

Weaver questioned the accuracy of McKitrick’s report.

“To say that there’s no statistically significant change over the last 15 to 20 years, it’s just not true,” Weaver said. “2005 is the second warmest year on record, 2010 is the warmest and we’re going to break the record in 2014.”

Weaver said climate models in the late 1990s estimated an amount of particulate and aerosol pollution in the world’s atmosphere that has been exceeded by growing thermal coal use in China and other emerging economies. That pollution has a cooling effect and when air pollution is cleaned up it as it has been in North America, warming increases, he said.

The issue is significant to B.C., where a carbon tax on fuels remains in place. Northeastern B.C.’s booming shale gas production contains more CO2 than conventional gas, and it is extracted and vented to the atmosphere in processing for fuel or export.
