More oil tank spills, still no new solutionsDaniel PalmerNews staff

Two home heating oil leaks which found their way into Bowker Creek and the Gorge Waterway last week are just the latest in a long list of expensive spills across the region, and local MLAs believe the prov-ince needs to do more to protect homeowners.

On the evening of Jan. 5, Saanich received a call from Oak Bay fire crews about an oil sheen and strong smell of diesel fuel on Bowker Creek near Mortimer Street. Booms were installed in the area, but finding the source of the leak proved difficult.

“Crews estimate they lifted over 50 manhole cov-ers looking for the source of the fuel,” said Harley Machielse, Saanich director of engineering.

It took about 24 hours before the leak was traced to a home in the 1700-block of Kisber Avenue, nearly three kilometres from the site of the Bowker Creek booms. An outdoor home heating oil tank was found to be leaking at the Shelbourne Valley home and into a perimeter drain, Machielse said.

Public works crews installed a siphon dam at the property line to stop fuel from leaving the property, and the oil tank was pumped out. Booms were also placed in nearby manholes to protect Bowker Creek, Machielse said.

“We’ll keep those booms up in place and do regular checks on a daily basis to see if there’s any additional contaminants being collected,” he said. “In this case, they weren’t large spills.”

The spill on Kisber Avenue was estimated to be about 100 litres.

On the morning of Jan. 6, another oil sheen was called in by Saanich Fire Department along the Gorge. In that case, crews quickly found a stormwater drain that was carrying the oil and traced the leak to a home on Walter Street, about half a kilometre away in the Tillicum-Gorge neighbourhood.

Daniel PalmerTravis PatersonSaanich News

Saanich Mayor Richard Atwell is unleashing a tor-rent of allegations against the District of Saanich and local police and is confirm-ing rumours of an extra-marital affair.

Atwell made several state-ments Monday afternoon at a press conference at Saa-nich’s Data Tech Business Centre then left without tak-ing reporters’ questions.

“In my wildest dreams I never expected to see my personal life become fodder for tabloid journalism,” said Atwell, referencing news stories of a Dec. 11 police-involved incident in Saanich.

Atwell revealed he has asked Saa-nich Police Chief Bob Downie to request an external police investiga-tion into allegations that Saanich’s IT department “had been instructed to place spyware on my computer and a number of other computers within the municipal hall,” he said.

It was not immediately clear if the spyware, known as Spector 360, was installed as an employee monitoring tool, whether it was standard prac-tice, or if the software was installed.

“It is also why I have not felt secure and comfortable working from the mayor’s office,” he said.

Chief Downie issued a statement of his own following Atwell’s release that the matter of software privacy had been reviewed and council would be advised in session on Mon-day night (Jan. 12), past the Saanich News’ press deadline.

On his lawyer’s advice, Atwell is advising anyone who wants to con-tact him to do so through an external email out of the District’s domain – [email protected].

Atwell also said he’d been pulled over four times by police while driv-ing in recent months, twice as a may-oral candidate, once as mayor-elect and once as mayor.

“In two of those instances the instances the officer administered a road-side breathalyzer test which I believe was done without reasonable

suspicion,” said Atwell. Atwell has requested the head

of the Integrated Road Safety Unit, which is comprised of both munici-pal and RCMP officers, to review those stops.

In addition, the Mayor clarified a Dec. 11 incident in which he called 911 and Saanich Police responded.

“I called 911 as a complainant look-ing for help and at no time did I com-mit any criminal act,” he said.

As a result of the information being leaked to media, Atwell filed a com-plaint with the office of B.C.’s Office of the Police Complaint Commis-sioner on Monday, he said. Atwell is hoping to have an outside police force review questions surrounding the incident.

“I have not been immersed ... in the political realm and have not had the opportunity to develop effec-tive political skills, but that changes today,” said Atwell, adding he plans to meet with individual councillors to discuss the issues.

Coun. Fred Haynes, who attended the press conference as an observer, said that council will be issuing a joint statement once they have an opportunity to address the flurry of issues brought up by Atwell.

“I believe the mayor was clear today that he wants to move for-ward and council wants to put these issues behind us and move on with good governance for the people of Saanich,” Haynes said.

Saanich mulls right to healthy environmentDaniel PalmerNews staff

Saanich could soon join Victoria in declaring the right to a healthy environ-ment, a symbolic gesture gathering sup-port from some municipalities across the country.

Coun. Susan Brice presented the motion to council last week modelled on the David Suzuki Foundation’s Blue Dot tour, a lob-bying effort that encourages Canadians to request a right to a healthy environment. The long-term goal is to have the federal government enshrine environmental rights in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Free-doms.

Locally, the push came from Rupert Yakelashek, 10, who attended a Blue Dot tour event and then lobbied Victoria coun-cillors on the matter during the municipal election campaign. “I was driving into town and listening to this young fellow Rupert on the radio, and I thought, ‘What a joy to listen to,’” Brice said.

After Victoria passed its motion, a coun-cillor approached Brice and asked her if Saanich might attempt to do the same.

The declaration states multiple environ-mental human rights, such as the right to breathe clean air, the right to drink clean water, the right to consume safe food and the right to participate in decision-making that will affect the environment.

The declaration also states that the Dis-trict of Saanich will take cost-effective mea-sures to prevent the degradation of the environment and protect the health of its citizens.

“(Suzuki) said that Canada had fallen behind in the environmental race and that many countries have environmental rights, but not Canada,” Yakelashek said. “If humans are harming the environment, we’re directly harming ourselves.”

Deborah Curran, an environmental law

professor at the University of Victoria, said the declaration is positive as most munici-palities fail to flex their full environmental muscles.

“Through Sec. 8 and 9 of the (B.C.) Com-munity Charter, municipalities can enact bylaws for the protection of the environ-ment: anti-pollution bylaws for watercourse protection, tree protection, air quality pro-tection. There are very few municipalities who have done this to their full extent,” Curran said.

Curran pointed to Saanich’s Urban Con-tainment Boundary, established in the 1960s, as a “rousing success” in environ-mental protection at the municipal level.

However, the boundary was put in place for very different concerns: the municipal-ity didn’t want to extend sewer and water service beyond what could be fed by grav-ity, Curran said.

“Now, it has much broader sustainability purposes and it’s a good success story for maintaining vibrant urban areas and main-taining a vibrant urban agricultural econ-omy,” she said.

Curran said a declaration of the right to a healthy environment can help “daylight” environmental policies across a municipal-ity. “You’re forced to look at cumulative impacts and look at it in an integrated way around health and environment,” she said.

Brice is asking council for an agreement in principle and to forward the declaration to committee of the whole, where the pub-lic can have input. Residents would have a chance to weigh at a council meeting no earlier than Feb. 26.

“There was a day when it was a good thing to accommodate a person’s disabili-ties, and then it eventually became a right,” Brice said. “You have to ask at what point do some of these fundamental environmen-tal components become something which we, as Canadians, should expect.”

Don Denton/Black Press

Rupert Yakelashek, 10, successfully lobbied City of Victoria councillors to become the first jurisdiction on Vancouver Island to adopt a declaration recognizing the Right to a Healthy Environment. Saanich is now considering a similar declaration.

Did you know?n Saanich’s Official Community Plan calls for all new development proposals to include metrics on climate change impact. Coun. Vic Derman is leading the charge to implement that assessment when new projects are presented at council.

n Eight other municipalities in Canada have declared a right to a healthy environment since October. They include Victoria, Vancouver, Richmond, Yellowknife, Dunnottar, Man., The Pas, Man., Montreal, Que. and Austin, Que.

Ted Robbins, general manager, CRD integrated water services offers Oak Bay Mayor Nils Jensen, chair of the CRD and CRD Core Area Liquid Waste Management Committee a tour of the Clover Point pumping station on Jan. 8.

East side communities rally for sewage talksChristine van ReeuwykBlack Press

The Capital Regional District is expected to make it official – a work-ing group of the three east side municipalities to scope out waste water treatment options for Saanich, Oak Bay and Victoria.

The CRD board is expected to approve a Wastewater and Resource Recovery Select Committee that would formalize discussions already underway between the municipali-ties of Saanich, Victoria and Oak Bay to identify wastewater treatment options as part of a comprehensive regional solution.

“The first thing we need to do is our due diligence – best practices sounding, where you take two, three months where you simply get an independent group who have an unimpeachable reputation to show us the best of what’s available for sewage treatment and resource recovery,” said Coun. Vic Derman, who sits on the CRD’s waste water management committee.

Nils Jensen, Oak Bay Mayor and CRD chair, said the working group would look very much like the one created last November by Colwood, Esquimalt, Langford, View Royal, and Songhees First Nation.

“There will be meetings in the three communities. There won’t be a lot of duplication, we’ll be sharing a lot of information,” Jensen said. “It allows us to work together and reach out to residents. There will be a lot of options on the table.”

The committee would be sup-ported by the CRD and municipal staff to develop and evaluate sub-regional treatment options for their communities, conduct costing exer-cises and work with other municipal-ities to optimize existing conveyance infrastructure.

A series of open houses and an online survey is currently underway

to gauge resident input as well, Jen-sen said.

“It’s a matter of balancing the three issues, environmental, economic and social and what are the relative impacts,” Jensen said. “Until we get the costing of each of the options it’s going to be difficult for people to pro-vide a meaningful opinion.”

Derman has been attempting to get the CRD board to look at alterna-tive treatment technology and appli-cations for the better part of seven years. He said last week’s motion to explore those options was a long time coming.

“We really need to get people the best environment benefit and finan-cial bang for your buck. So we need to look at waste streams. If we do things properly, there are some really exciting prospects,” Derman said.

Derman envisions a waste plant that receives not only sewage, but kitchen scraps and other garbage now destined for the Hartland land-fill.

“We have the potential to cause transformative change in the region. If it doesn’t, you’ve done your home-work. If the answer is positive, you could be making remarkable changes,” Derman said.

The CRD is required by federal leg-islation to treat its sewage to a sec-ondary or greater level by 2020, and the province has set a sewage treat-ment deadline of 2018. Some direc-tors are pushing for an extension of the provincial deadline to 2020 as well.

Last spring, the project to develop a regional wastewater treatment facility at McLoughlin Point came to a grinding halt after Esquimalt denied required rezoning and the province declined to intervene. Work was meant to begin by the end of July 2014 on the projected $788-mil-lion plant.

Another independent Saanich business is up in arms over Liquor Distribution Branch practices.

Sales have slowed at Saanich’s Hillside Liquor Store since a new B.C. Liquor Store recently opened in a renovated space across at Hillside Centre shopping mall, well within a kilometre of Hillside Liquor Store.

Manager Stacey Brennan of Hillside Liqour spoke on behalf of the 10-year-old store’s owner-ship group about concerns with the Liquor Distribution Branch’s ability and decision to open a new store within a kilometre of their own.

“As a private liquor store we cannot by law open a store within one kilometre of another private or government store,” Brennan said. “That government liquor stores are allowed to do exactly that is an unfair business practise and it’s contrary to the promise the Liberal government made about 12 years ago that they would not be opening any more government liquor stores.”

Hillside Centre falls on the Vic-toria side of the North Dairy Road border, while Hillside Liquor Store is in Saanich.

Victoria Mayor Lisa Helps

agrees the zoning policy is flawed and needs to be corrected. How-ever, she also believes the market will bear it out, as she was one of the Victoria councillors who voted in favour of rezoning to approve

the BCL store in January of 2014. “The one kilometre rule should be even both ways and private stores shouldn’t be restricted to being a smaller space than a public store,” Helps said.

With a combined 13 govern-

ment and private liquor stores already within a three-kilometre radius of Hillside Centre there was no need to spend taxpayers’ money to open another store, Brennan added. She also cited that the LDB is advertising false

information claiming the govern-ment stores are less expensive than the private stores.

Hillside Liquor Store sells its products at the same price, even going as far to match special sales.

“Stores are chosen based on customer demand, considering things like location, population density and whether it is feasi-ble in the community, “ said LDB spokesperson Tarina Palmer in a statement.

The new store is “essentially” the relocated Esquimalt store which recently closed and is also the only B.C. Liquor Store to open on Vancouver Island in the past two years.

“After the Esquimalt store was given notice that it would no lon-ger be able to occupy the space it was leasing, we began looking at other options for serving the greater community,” Palmer’s statement said.

Last year Hillside Liquor Store presented a petition to Victoria council with more than 3,000 sig-natures opposing the new govern-ment liquor store.

“I don’t feel that we had any impact whatsoever at the rezon-inghearing even though there were neighbour concerns,” Bren-nan said.

“It appeared the decision had already been made.”

My Christmas reading included a fascinating new book called Kennewick Man, a study of skeletal remains discovered in 1996 on the bank of the Columbia River in eastern Washington.

He was an ancient hunter buried just south of B.C. almost 9,000 years ago, in the Early Holocene period following the last Ice Age. Among the oldest humans found along the West Coast of North America, he sparked an unprecedented battle by the Smithsonian Institution to examine the skeleton and publish the book late last year.

The most controversial evidence came from the skull. It doesn’t match the classic Mongoloid profile of modern aboriginal people, key to the theory that the earliest humans reached North America by land bridge from Siberia to Alaska as glaciers receded.

Smithsonian scientists confirmed initial reports that Kennewick Man is a closer match with early Polynesians and the Ainu people who remain in Japan today. He lived until about age 40, surviving for years with a stone spear point stuck in his hip.

The authors conclude from chemical analysis that “Kennewick Man could not have been a long-time resident of the area where he was found, but instead lived most of his adult life somewhere along the Northwest and North Pacific coast

where marine mammals were readily available.”

This suggests migration by sea, perhaps from a great distance.

The U.S. Army seized the skeleton. The scientists sued and eventually won the right to a brief examination. The court case exposed brutal and illegal actions of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and federal departments to destroy the site

and intimidate the scientists.

U.S. law demanded all remains from before European settlement be repatriated for burial by local tribes, without examination.

Umatilla tribe spokesman Armand Minthorn wrote in 1996: “We view this practice as desecration of the body and a violation of our most deeply-held

religious beliefs.“From our oral histories, we know

that our people have been part of this land since the beginning of time. We do not believe that our people migrated here from another continent, as the scientists do.”

The head of the Society for American Archaeology tried to get the researchers to drop their lawsuit, fearing it would interfere with fragile relationships with area tribes. The U.S. Justice Department warned the Smithsonian that lead scientist Douglas Owsley and others might be in criminal conflict of interest

as federal employees suing the government. Even the White House weighed in against them.

Meanwhile the skeleton was mishandled and later stored in substandard conditions at a Seattle museum, where it remains today. Parts of both femurs were lost, and scientists were falsely accused of taking them. They had been removed by tribal representatives and secretly buried. Kennewick Man was found as the army was in tense negotiations with tribes on salmon fishing rights on the Columbia, their demand for removal of dams, and the $100 billion cleanup of the Hanford nuclear site.

The scientists finally won their case in 2004, with a ruling that the skeleton is so old there isn’t enough evidence to show it is related to the current tribes. The judge found the army repeatedly misled the court, and assessed the government $2.4 million in costs.

The U.S. Army still controls the skeleton and denies requests for further study. The spear point, for example, could show the location where he was injured.

One final irony. Analysis shows Kennewick Man ate mostly salmon in his later years, around 6300 BCE. These are the salmon runs wiped out by dams built by U.S. Army engineers before the signing of the Columbia River Treaty with B.C.

Liquor reform? Likely not

The B.C. government’s umpteenth announcement on liquor reform came in late December, when many grocers received word that they would, indeed, be able to stock B.C. wines on their shelves as early as April 1.

But as Saanich News highlighted last week, the restrictive measures will only benefit grocers who maintain a store of 10,000 square feet and whose sales constitute 75 per cent food products.

In other words, smaller grocers like Peppers Foods in Cadboro Bay won’t be able to stock their shelves with Okanagan and Island-made vino for the convenience of customers.

The restrictions are meant to prevent convenience stores from selling alcohol, but the arbitrary regulations do local businesses a disservice by incentivizing customers to shop at larger, national chains.

Shop local indeed.B.C. also has a moratorium on new

private liquor store licences. The 670 private retail stores licensed

to sell alcohol in B.C. compete with 196 government-run outlets.

The government appears to play by another set of rules when it comes to relocating its own stores within a kilometre of private vendors.

In 2014, a new B.C. Liquor store opened up shop in Hillside Centre, just a stone’s throw from an established private vendor on North Dairy Road.

That happened despite a 3,000-person petition opposing the move and presented to City of Victoria council when the government applied for a rezoning application.

Liquor “reform” is also meant to drive up alcohol prices over the coming year, which begs the question: what’s there to celebrate?

You may be pleased to hear that you have 20/20 vision and think you have perfect vision. But do you?

Not necessarily. 20/20 only indicates how sharp or clear your vision is at a distance. Overall vision also includes peripheral awareness or side vision, eye coordination, depth perception, focussing ability and colour vision.

20/20 is the average visual clarity obtainable by normal healthy eyes. Since it is an average, it means that there are those that see better or worse than 20/20 and yet still have healthy eyes.

20/20 describes normal visual clarity or sharpness measured at a distance of 20 feet from an object. If you have 20/20 vision, you can see clearly at 20 feet what should normally be seen at that distance. If you have 20/100 vision, it means that you must be as close as 20 feet to see what a person with normal vision can see at 100 feet. In the metric system, 6/6 is the equivalent of 20/20.

The ability to see objects clearly is affected by many factors. Eye conditions like nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism or eye disease influence visual acuity. Most people with vision slightly below 20/20 function very well, whereas some people who have better than 20/20 feel their vision is not satisfactory. Everybody’s visual expectations are different and satisfactory vision is far more complex than just being able to see 20/20.

If you feel your vision is not up to standard a comprehensive eye examination will identify causes that may affect your ability to see well. Optometrists may be able to prescribe glasses, contact lenses or other vision aids that will help improve your vision. If the reduced vision is due to an eye disease, the use of ocular medication or other treatment may be needed. If necessary, a referral to a specialist will be made if an eye disease is found which warrants further investigation.

At the end of the turkey and short-bread season, I was desperate to hop on my bike and ride my commute to work.

Sure, we did a bit of cycling with the kids, but there is something about my commute that is particularly freeing.

I am a working mom and my kids are three and six years old. My commute is the only time of day that no one can talk to me!

(As I write this I can hear my three-year-old yelling that she needs warmer pajamas!)

Riding my bike is one of my few daily activities that actually reduces my stress. It is good for me, good for the environment, and makes financial sense.

I love bikes and maps and I had been pondering a way to incorporate these two pas-sions for a while.

On a commute home I got the idea for a citizen mapping website, which I planned to call “flip the bird.”

My initial idea was to build a website where cyclists could humorously vent about bad interactions with vehicles, other bikes, pedestrian, and, yes, urban deer.

I started planning the project and I quickly realized it wasn’t funny. The available data on cycling safety is abys-mal.

In the CRD it is estimated that only 30 per cent of cycling crashes are recorded through official reports, that is those that are made when police are called to a crash or through ICBC claims.

From 2009 to 2013 between 119 and 140 vehicle insurance claims involving bikes were made.

There is a lot going on for cyclists that we don’t know about, officially.

Though the data aren’t compiled, as individuals we know the problem areas.

I ride almost every day and usually I feel quite safe, but I also know the trou-ble spots on my routes.

BikeMaps.org is a website where citi-zens can map cycling crashes, near misses, hazards, or bike thefts.

The data citizens provide to BikeMaps.org will enable researchers and planners to better determine where and when safety is a problem and to monitor changes in safety over time.

Feel free to vent too! In doing so, you will help us fill a massive gap in cycling safety data.

Since the BikeMaps.org website launched in Octo-ber 2014 we have had over

14,000 visitors and more than 600 mappers in 14 countries.

CRD citizen mappers have contributed 45 per cent of

the data to Bike-Maps.org so far (Thanks so much!).

The inclusion of near miss data will allow us to be proactive in our planning and will enable more com-plete monitor-ing of, for exam-ple, how well the new cycling infrastructure planned for the City of Victoria is work-ing out.

Cycling is safe. According to UBC researcher Kay

Teschke, cycling fatalities in BC are 13.8 fatalities per 100 million trips, in com-parison to 14.7 for pedestrians and 9.6 for cars.

Add in the benefits of reduced risk of all types of chronic disease and it makes

you wonder why we don’t ride more. Concerns about safety, some real and

some perceived, are a primary barrier to increased ridership.

The CRD has developed a Pedestrian and Cycling Master Plan with goals of increasing cycling to 15 per cent of trips regionally and 25 per cent in urban areas by 2038.

The CRD’s plan requires dramatic action to increase ridership from a long-term trend near 3 per cent.

Better data will show us where we need to increase safety and some areas where we can be confident we are safest to ride.

The less time I spend in my car in 2015 the happier and healthier I will be.

Safer cycling means I can ride more places with my kids and, in a couple of years, they can ride more places on their own.

You can get involved by sharing your riding experience on www.BikeMaps.

org. Watch for

new results from analy-sis on twitter @ B i k e M a p -sTeam and FaceBook.

By map-ping at Bike-Maps.org you are adding to a long-term database of cycling data

and helping to make cycling safer for everyone.

Crews from Saanich public works set up a containment boom on the Colquitz River in 2013.

MLAs to host oil spill forumWithout a recent reading to indicate how much

heating oil was in the tank, crews have no way of making an accurate approximation of the oil spill, Machielse said.

The Kirby and Walter Avenue spills aren’t the first to cause financial headaches for homeown-ers. In 2012, a couple on Ambassador Avenue was forced to pay $48,000 in clean-up costs after insur-ance didn’t come through.

A 2011 report released by the University of Victoria’s environmental law clinic titled Prevent-ing Home Heating Oil Spills in British Columbia, focused on seven suggested provisions to take part of the onus of clean-up costs off homeowners.

Among the recommendations were: improved physical requirements for tanks and equipment; limiting the length of time a tank can be in use; regulating oil delivery; inspection and monitor-ing requirements; tank decommissioning require-ments; and direct economic incentives for home-owners to change heating fuels. So far, the pro-vincial, regional and local governments have not taken action.

“The number of spills from failed tanks is grow-ing, which puts Saanich’s waterways at even greater risk,” said Victoria-Swan Lake MLA Rob Fleming. “The provincial regulations aren’t at all preventative which leaves homeowners to poten-tially face shocking liabilities from oil contamina-tion of their properties.”

To initiate discussion on oil tank spills, Fleming and Saanich South MLA Lana Popham are jointly hosting a community forum to discuss how to reduce risks for the environment and homeowners on Feb. 5 from 7 to 8:30 p.m. at Reynolds Second-ary school auditorium.

Machielse was confident that no more oil will leak from the concerned properties, and he said

crews will continue their clean up. Property own-ers are responsible for hiring professionals to com-plete the work and for the municipality’s clean-up costs.

Continued from Page A1

Did you know?n The Colquitz watershed is no stranger to oil spills. Since 2011, there have been at least 10 oil spills that contaminated the creek, including a 1,100 litre home heating oil spill in November 2011 and a mineral oil leak from a B.C. Hydro line in 2012.

n A recent CRD report estimates one in 10 households constructed before 1992 in the CRD had oil heating systems when the house was first occupied.

The Saanich Braves extended their win streak to five games Sat-urday night (Jan. 10) with a 4-1 win over the Kerry Park Islanders, a win that vaulted the Braves into third place in the South Divi-sion of the VIJHL.

Leading the way for the Braves in the win were Ben Meek, who had a three point night with a goal and two assists, as well as Cameron Kovesdi and Evan Horvath, who each had a goal and an assist. Goaltender Riley Mathieson stopped 27 of 28 shots to get his third win in a row with the Braves.

Also scoring for the Braves Saturday was newcomer Wil Finlay, one of two new faces that have joined the Braves at the Jan. 10 trading deadline.

Finlay finished last season with Comox, facing the Braves in round one of the play-offs. He previously played two seasons ago in Peninsula.

Finlay is touted by Head Coach Brad Cook as a “great two-way player with speed, patience with the puck and who has the ability

to chip in offensively.” Also joining the

Braves is forward Nick Keane, acquired from the Kerry Park Island-ers.

Keane has 11 goals and 12 assists in 37 games this season and can hopefully pro-vide some additional offence for the Braves down the stretch.

That offence could be important, as the Braves have also lost the services of leading scorer Nyshan Basra who had 21 goals and 19 assists in 28 games with the team this sea-son.

Basra had requested a move to the Lower Mainland so he could be closer to his family and the Braves accom-modated him by mov-ing him to the North Vancouver Wolfpack.

The Braves also learned that forward Nick Guerra, who has been with the Junior A Nanaimo Clippers, will not be returning to the club.

Saanich forward Ben Meek has six goals and four assists in his last eight games, including a goal and two assists last Saturday in the Braves’ 4-1 win over Kerry Park. Meek will compete in the VIJHL All Star game Jan. 18. Christian J. Stewart / ISN

Guerra was traded to the Prince George Spruce Kings at the deadline and will remain in the BCHL.

With the departure of Basra, Keane now becomes the Braves’ leading scorer and it is safe to say the team will need he and Finlay to produce right out of the gate for the team to continue its success.

Finlay’s goal Satur-day was a good sign in this regard. They will also need to con-tinue getting secondary scoring from the likes of Meek, Horvath, Jack Rachwalski and Hunter Atchison.

They also need to get healthy. Forwards Dayne Ellison and Sea-mus Maguire were out of the line-up again on Saturday and their vet-eran leadership could be important down the stretch.

The Braves now have 21 carded play-ers with two cards left. While the roster is now pretty much set, they can affiliate play-ers to Jan. 15 and can sign free additional free agents until Feb. 10.

Next up for the Braves are the Penin-sula Panthers Friday (Jan. 16) followed by a trip to Comox Saturday (Jan. 17).

The league then takes a brief break for the 2015 All-Star game in Comox on Sun-day Jan. 18 where the Braves will be repre-sented by Jack Rachw-alski, Seamus Maguire and Ben Meek. Meek is replacing the previ-ously named Nyshan Basra.

The Braves head to The Q Centre Jan. 21 for a game against Wests-hore, then to Nanaimo on Thursday Jan. 22 for a match with the Buc-caneers.

Saanich then returns home on Friday Jan. 23 for a 6:30 p.m. start with Kerry Park.

Inspired by her holistic ranch-ing background, Lieutenant Gover-nor Judith Guichon has launched a province-wide environmental education program for high school teachers and youth leaders.

Stewards of the Future offers grants of up to $800 per group to cover field trips, fees for programs and guess speakers, equipment and teacher release time for projects. It is offered for students from grades 9 to 12, First Nations educators, 4-H, Guide and Scout groups and envi-ronment clubs, with an application deadline of Jan. 23 for the spring program.

“Through Stewards of the Future, students will have the opportunity to explore issues that affect the land, water and other natural resources in British Columbia,” Guichon said. “The goal of this program is not to solve the challenges we face, but rather to encourage open discus-sion and gain a better understand-ing of the issues that affect our natu-ral surroundings.”

Program partners, including the education ministry and B.C. Parks, offer support for projects such as

research on invasive species lead-ing to mapping and removal.

The Stewards of the Future tool-kit emphasizes hands-on “place-based” experience to appreciate and enhance biodiversity.

Guichon and her late husband Lawrence Guichon are credited with pioneering holistic management in the B.C. cattle industry, emphasiz-ing preservation of natural grass-land on their historic Merritt-area ranch.

Details and application forms for the Stewards of the Future program are available at the Lieutenant Gov-ernor’s website, www.ltgov.bc.ca

Guichon intends to visit programs in the province and incorporate an awards program for participants.

When Lorie and Walter bought their home in Port Alberni 13 years ago they slowly began renovating the unfinished basement to accommodate Walter’s changing needs as his muscular dystrophy advanced.

“The basement was a black hole when we moved in,” recalled Walter. “After 12 years of skimping and saving, we made the downstairs completely wheelchair accessible, except for the bathroom. It was way too small. I could only stand for about a minute and a half without collapsing in the shower stall and I could no longer pull myself out of the tub in the upstairs’ bathroom, even with Lorie’s help.”

Through funding from BC Housing’s Home Adaptations for Independence (HAFI) program, Walter and Lorie were able to work with a contractor to transform the space. A wall was removed to make room for a wheel-in shower with benches, grab bars were installed, and the vanity and fixtures were relocated.

I just slide into the shower now,” said Walter. “I feel safer and no longer dread trying to wash myself. What was previously a dangerous chore for me is now a welcome treat.”

Walter and Lorie hope to spend the rest of their lives in their home.

The HAFI program provides financial assistance to help eligible low-income seniors and people with disabilities adapt their homes so they can continue to live independently.

A renshi teacher in SaanichDon Denton Travis PatersonVictoria News

The ancient teachings of the samurai warrior live on in a martial arts studio on Quadra Street where local karate expert Ken Marchtaler conducts his classes.

Last month the 57-year-old was awarded the distinguished karate title of renshi, or polished master, one of three samurai warrior titles.

It’s one of the highest levels of distinction in karate, and comes from a life spent dedicated karate’s physical and mental disciplines.

“If you want to progress to a higher level (in karate) then martial arts mindfulness and meditation needs to be part of your daily habits,” said Marchtaler.

From the Warrior Martial Wellness Centre space next to 24 Hour Fitness, the former banker practises and teaches mindful meditation and embryonic breathing, a higher level meditation, as well as karate’s trademark movements.

Despite Marchtaler’s initiative to teach both sides of martial arts, he’s not overlooking the

crucial fitness component. His five-hour renshi test was in California and included a grueling one-hour crossfit session to achieve the title.

“I wasn’t aware of how important it would be for me, but it has made me realize how significant it is, not only in Japanese society, but to my students, my teacher, and to our grandmaster Shugoro Nakazato,” Marchtaler said.

One in every 100 students that starts martial arts makes it to black belt, he added. There are no statistics beyond the first-degree, but very few make it to second-degree, and even less beyond that.

Marchtaler offers a number of Martial Wellness programs which provide traditional martial arts training that take into account western needs. The workshops cater to men and women but he is particularly concerned with children developing proper wellness and fitness habits.

Marchtaler’s endeavours reach far beyond his Saanich studio as he’s written a book for kids based on his teachings

called Little Warriors: The Book of One, which has been optioned for television and a movie before it will come to print.

He’s also been heavily involved in the creation of the World Martial Arts Games, an entity that brings many of the world’s martial arts

associations together.It came as a response

to the Olympics’ inclusion of Tae Kwon Do and Judo, while more than a dozen more martial arts associations were being

overlooked. Marchtaler has been

with WMAG since 2005 and oversaw it bring several organization together, acting as commissioner since 2012. WMAG has now been handed over to

TAFISA, the Association for International Sport For All.

In September, TAFISA ran the 2014 World Martial Arts Games in Richmond, using the podiums of the 2010 Olympics and medals designed by Corrine Hunt, who designed the 2010 Winter Olympics medals. [email protected]

Warrior Martial Wellness Centre

The mind and body are one.

Don Denton/Black Press

Ken Marchtaler’s studio focuses on both the mental and physical aspects of martial arts.
