That la the outcome of four action- packed days in Gibsons which began with .early morning drilling for bhsting oa Goapel Rock on November 20; differing legal opinions from three sets of lawyers, one of thm later rescinded; a stop-work order from the municipality, later claimed to be inappropriate; and more hysteria in this moat controversial of municipal concerns. Hie latest development, so far, In the constandy-breaking story last week came when the municipal authorities advised the Coast News that thdr lawyers, McKenzie, Murdy, and McAllister, had concurred with a letter dated November 23, from Welsh and Gray, a local law firm representing Killam, that Killam was free to Mast on his own propeaerty without a petrmlt. Earlier in the week, the town's lawyers had agreed with a law Arm, contacted by the Frtends of Gospel Rock, that a permit was needed before any Masting was done. When Gibsons retsident Joyce of the Municipal Act states that: A work crew hired by developer Hayden Killam drilled 48 of 60 holes in preparation to Mast the top six feet off Gospel Rock, before the Town of Gibsons served a Slop Work Order which tbcy withdrew four days later. As of last Friday, 47 of the 41 holes had been refilled by persons unknown. -Joel Johnalon.; Mow Dayton noticed two men derailing holes in the top of Gospel Rock in the eary morning hours of Tuesday, November 20, the alarm she sounded began another chapter in the concerted efforts to preserve the beloved landmark which developer Hayden Killam hopes to transform into a housing tract. The ensuing outcry led Friends of Gospel Rock to mobilize who they could on such short notice to stand over proceedings; naturalists and citizens to gathw and express their concerns; and the Town of Gibsons administration to undergo a fretful six hour scramble to deal with the crisis, which culminated in Town Planner Rob Buchan bringing the work to a halt with a notice from his office which, in summary, reads: "I wish to advise (Killam) that Section 976(lXd) Land...that is within an area designated under Section 945(4Xd), shall not be altered unless the owner first obtains a development permit..." Buchan, besieged by enquiries, went out to the site and confronts Don Fowler of Thunderbird Drilling and Blasting and "got the impression they were instructed not to talk too much." But Buchan did discover the 60 hole pattern being drilled was for the purpose of levelling the top of Gospel Rock with the adjacent roadway with dynamite on the next day. Fowler, visibly uncomfortable with the situation told the Coast News "This is no big deal." But after the news had spread, and over a dozen people converg<ed on the scene (Friends of Gospel Rock, incoming and incumbent aldermen, concerned citizens) the driller admitted this .-���:���';'��� was the reaction he had an- ,"������' ticipated. Buchan, back at his office ' pondering the situation, said "1 ' do not know what (Killam's) plan is. From a point of view legally, he is within the law and rights and doesn't need a permit to blast on private property. "Killam enquired about blasting some months ago...I told him it was a bad public relations move and that he nreded a permit." Buchan pointed out "Subsequent to that, Killam came in when I wasn't here and talked to Lorraine Goddard and Ralph Jones who couldn't consult me." Town Administrator Goddard said Killam had not asked her specifically about Gospel Rock. "What he said to me was 'do I need a permit for blasting' and I said I didn't know of such." Buchan added "I think Hayden Killam was sincere in thinking he was within his rights to go ahead and blast because of hearing what he wanted to hear the second time around. "My initial reaction, yesterday morning.'Buchan claimed, "was I didn't think we could do anything about it. I would have caught it...but when I was hit cold, I wasn't sure, but I knew we could do something and would not allow blasting on Gospel Rock." Friends of Gospel Rock Please tum to page 13 Former SCRD chairman fears for waf rehed Tetrahedron Wilderness Park sought by Stuart Burnside The question of a Tetrahedron Wilderness area was raised again at the November 22 Parks Committee Meeting, by long time Coast resident and former SCRD Chairman, Harry Almond, who expressed concern for the apparent inaction on the subject. The issue of a wilderness park is not to be confused with the ongoing conflict between the Tetrahedron Alliance and those who find their livelihood harvesting trees. According to Almond, the park in question was proposed in 1974 by John Hind-Smith, before logging in the area was considered a setious threat. Hind-Smith, himself a 30 year resident of the Coast, says that when he first introduced the idea in 1974 it was met favourably by the SCRD serv- lies the in- ing at the time, but that very little has been done until IS months ago when, spurred by a perceived logging threat to the area, John Hind-Smith and Harry Almond brought the matter back to the fore. The area of concern directly east of the area Tetrahedron Alliance is terested in, according to maps provided by Almond and Hind- Smith, maps with three different sources but sharing a common theme. The first map, an outline of the original proposal by Hind- Smith, establishes the boundaries of the park as following roughly the 3500 foot elevation line around the Tetrahedron area, and forming a rough triangle starting at approximately Tannis Lake, up to Rain River Lake, down to Panther Peak, and back to Tannis Lake. The second map, issued by the Ministry of Forests, has the same basic outline as Hind- Smith's, except that instead of beginning the triangle at Tannis Lake, it would begin to the east of Edwards Lake, itself located east of the area of concern to the Tetrahedron Alliance. The third map, supplied by - lnterfor, the company doing most of the logging in the area, would place the beginning of the wilderness park triangle another mile further east to Chapman Lake. The main difference between Forestry's outline and Hind- Smith's, according to Almond, stems from Forestry's definition of a "wilderness" area as one which must not have any road access for at least one kilometer. Almond and Hind-Smith, acknowledging Forestry's definition of "wilderness", believe a compromise could be reached regarding the boun- Slams 'Enough is enough' group Meredith bows out daries of the proposed wilderness area, ie. the current ski and recreation area centred ..around lakes Tannis, Gilbert, Edwards, Mayne and Bachelor, could not be included since they clearly have existing and maintained access roads. With regard to the lnterfor suggestions for a wilderness park, however, Hind-Smith is adamant, claiming it cuts too far into the Chapman Lake watershed. The watershed issue is central to the argument of Almond and Hind-Smith that prompt action be taken toward the creation of the wilderness park. According to Hind-Smith, he hits a copy of the report commissioned by the SCRD and the Ministry of Forests that states the Chapman watershed is in "no danger" from present logging. Hind-Smith disagrees with this assertion, saying he has been in communication with a knowledgeable source who states that, although the report Please turn to page 5 Parking problems Access and parking at both Sunnycrest Mall and Marcorp Development Corporation's new shopping cenlre at Highway 101 and Payne Road have come under the scrutiny of the Ministry of Transportation and Highways (MOTH). Frank May, representing Ihe new owners of Sunnycrest, and Gibsons Town Planner Rob Buchan, met with Ray DeGraff of MOTH and identified some of ihe problems surrounding the proposed expansion to the mall. Buchan's report to Gibsons Council, November 20, pointed out the present main entrance to the mall had poor design, a lack of curbing along the east side of Sunnycrest Road, and the current misuse of Sunnycrest Road allowance for private parking purposes. Mareorp's application for a Variance Development Permit to reduce parking requirements for Iheir proposed new shopping cenlre has met a negative response from both the town and MOTH. Buchan stressed future Gibsons Bypass plans and the substandard condilion of Payne Road would create problems under Mareorp's existing proposal. The Sunshine Coast Regional Dislricl Planning Committee has agreed with the position of the town and are writing collectively to the Ministry to emphasize Iheir concerns. by Jan Michael Sherman At the end of the Sechelt Council's last regular meeting (November 21, 1990) before Mayor-Elect MacLarty and her new team are sworn in at noon on December 3, 1990, the ever irrepressible and unpredictable Tom Meredith jumped up from his chair and began handing out unidentified xerox copies of something he claimed - jokingly - would prove he was "right." The hand-out was a reprint of a recent Vancouver Sun article entitled "Why bike paths won't work." It was an impish parting dig at those recent candidates who tried to fashion a telling issue out of bike paths, walkways, and (even) pedestrian overpasses in Sechelt. But His Worship had bigger fish to fry than just an oblique comment on the relative merits of one aspect of the campaign as he perceived it. With increasing emotion, Meredith read from a prepared statement which he later made available to the Coasl News. "For years at election time", he began, "We have heard the old adage 'You can't do anything unless you are elected���so do and say most anything to get elected' - and this still holds true." The underlying cynicism in the Mayor's opening words brought something of a hush to the already quietly attentive Rockwood Annex, Significant looks were discreetly exchanged among members of the public gallery, which included Ms MacLarty and newly-elected aldermen Peggy Wagner and Art Whistler. "I think this past election in .Sechelt is a pretty good example of the application of this adage", Meredith continued. "When an unidentified group, changing its name, purports to support a full slate, without the agreement of some of the candidates and without their agreement on the total platform, it is a sorry state of affairs." (Meredith was referring to Ihe campaign activities of 'Enough is Enough' a well-heeled pressure group who first made waves in Setchelt when they took out full page newspaper ads urging the defeat of the Block Seven referendum. "It is of interest to note that the 'group' finds that Sechelt has been plagued with fiscal irresponsibility for the past two years", the mayor declaim^, his voice rising with ill-disguised anger, going on to say that "Three of the six aldermanic candidate I presume support this spurious assertion���having served on Council for those same past two years." Meredith paused for a moment, took his attention away from his written statement and continued without referring to it. "I sincerely believe that the District of Sechelt has had good government these past two Plme tun to page 10 The out-going Meredith Condi Im Sechdt relaxes for posterity.

A Free Zone with meaning Not so many weeks ago in this space, we called for the immediate withdrawal of all Canadian forces from the Persian Gulf. Apparently not enough of the right people were listening, although we are heartened by the fan that, slowly but surely, voices are beginning to be raised with regard to this pathetic and dangerous misadventure. But given a Defense Department tender of last week, time may well be running out on a goodly number of Canadian servicement and women. The order, placed in the November 13 edition of the Government Business Opportunities pmodical invites bids on 800 "...pouch(es) for human remains, water and rot resistant...94 inches long by 30 inches wide." We must conclude that the least popular PM since the advent of modern polling feels he has nothing to lose by wasting a goodly number of Canadian lives in the service of American oil ambitions. John Thompson, a Canadian military expert (a term fast achieving oxymoronic status), says that 800 body bags suggests to him that probably a brigade of (about) 5000 troops might be what (Mulroney) has in mind as his next move. Another voice which Canadians seemingly have not been paying enough heed is that of Mulroney's bellicose little bulldog of an External Affairs Minister, Joe Clark. "We are closer to war (now) than we have been since Korea!" barks the PM's personal two-legged pit bull, and still Canadians play ostrich in the shifting sands of time fast running out. This unconscious ploy of mass denial would be laughable, were not the possible consequencs so dire. But it is consistent with the herd instinct that harbingers of unpleasant realities are ignored until it is too late to act effectively. Take the GST. At a time when Ottawa has long since printed and shipped out to the provinces millions of pamphlets explaining and propagandizing this new miracle tax, Canadians are just now (and half-heartedly) suiting to register their disapproval. To hell with GST-free zones. Let us immediately force this crippled Prime Minister to declare the Persian Gulf a "Canadian-Free Zone"���and pull out. What service! Far be it from us to tell the new Gibsons Council its business. It has a plateful of problems to deal with and has a better chance of rising to the challenge, on paper, than any council in recent memory. But really, one area that should be pondered is the delivery of legal services to the town. The legal experts apparently get an opinion from one source on Gospel Rock blasting and agree; later they receive an opposing opinion and again agree. Is this good enough? ���from our files ��� We Remember When S Y.EARS AQO Deputy Minister of Education Jim Carter announced that Bowen Island would be removed from School Oistrict 46 and Incorporated Into West Vancouver's School District 45.

Meditations on the road behind Walter Mitty's bastard child Like most kids desperately in search of direction, rather than advice, I spent a good deal of time observing the verbal and (most especially) the non-verbal behaviour of the adults in my life. If I could somehow apprise myself of just what these earth- bound mini-gods were themselves ultimately after, if I could figure out what personal priority held sway in their hearts, then perhaps I might stumble across the key to temporal happiness and fulfillment. I learned that, for the most part, grown-ups talkeed a lot about meeting their needs, but spent most of their time and effort in a scramble to satisfy their In a nutshell desires. Getting everything they wanted seemed to take precedence over just about anything else, including, at times, their children. (As a kid I'd always believed that 1 was what my parents had wanted most of all, aside from each other). In short order, I concluded tlnft what I hungered- for most ingife went beyond the satisfaction of needs and desires. My penultimate goal in life was simply to do as I pleased. But it was a goal consistently thwarted by authority figures of good intention (but bad manners), who employed every conceivable carrot and stick (mostly sticks, if memory serves), to convince me that a life dedicated to doing what I pleased would only lead to trouble. I tried to explain that the prospect of some kind of (manageable) trouble was actively spurring me on, and fazed me nol a whit. I ached for the trouble that comes with adventure, exploration, and discovery. It was the bland stuckness of life lived too far back from the edge which frightened me the most. It took me some 25 years, however, to understand that before I could do what I pleased, I had to figure out just what it was that pleased me in the first place. This provesd to be a process more global in scope than I had anticipated when first I set out on my quest. At first, I thought I had only to determine what I liked, to know what pleased me. What a laugh! I' like my German Shepherd, but when she steals and devours a 20 pound turkey about to be served to a dozen famished pilgrims, I am far from pleased. Finding out what I like involves trying absolutely everything in sight, being disappointed more often than not, and waiting for that glorious moment when something unknown being sampled explodes into my consciousness with the long sought-after verdict "I don't just like this���1 positively love it." Then comes the waiting period, during which time the things that I "love" vie for the priviledge and the opportunity to become one of my .acquired tastes. In my personal hierarchy, acquired tastes are those things which never grow stale, never fail to please me, and never let me down in any way. But, at some point 1 cannot recall, I realized that what pleases me did not, in the last analysis, equate to doing as I please. Doing what 1 please ultimately boils down to having the wherewithal! to do precisely what I want, and in my own good time. This particular freedom has proven to be the most slippery of them all, if only because to attain it, one must somehow renounce all ambition. To take this radical step, however, would be to turn a blind eye to personal achievement, and a sense of achievement gives much meaning to my life. Having thus squared the circle, and having boxed myself in in the process, I have opted for the only viable alternative. I will do what 1 please when I can afford to, and only hope that when I am otherwise engaged, nothing particularly exciting will turn up. But my bags and my heart will be ready to leave at a moment's notice. (I never dreamed doing what I pleased would involve so much compromise). A little descriptive phrase by S. Nutter As I trundle along these days, reading, listening to radio, keeping half an eye on TV, bits and phrases, ideas even surface from time to time and I jot them down on a pad of yellow copy paper. When the pads are full I riffle through them, picking oul anything that still looks interesting and throw the pads away. The trouble with this go- along (you could hardly call it a system) is that you get these items, intriguing maybe looking, but out of context of course, and not ascribed to anybody or anything, which you simply cannot dredge up any memory about at all. It's like people's first names and telephone numbers carefully printed out on match folders, and in the morning who in hell can that be. The latest little puzzler of this sort is a one-liner obviously jotted down hurriedly, in quotation marks, reading in full: "...looking more and more like a shepherd who has eaten his sheep". Well, it's a good, even arresting descriptive phrase, but I couldn't for the life of me remember where il came from, and it began to dog me a bit. Obviously here we have a description of someone, a man I would think. .Someone else I would think. A person doesn't go to his glass in the morning and have it occur to him that he is looking more and more like a shepherd who has eaten his sheep. Also this person, call him Harry, has to be someone he sees quite a lot of, because of the 'more and more' aspect. At some previous time then he looked just a little like a shepherd with a yen for shish- kabob...? I think if I were an editor I would pencil out the 'more and more', leaving us with still a pretty telling phrase: Looking like a shepherd who has eaten his sheep. But then again, what does a shepherd who has eaten his sheep look like really? Obviously not a skinny type, but this has got to be a matter of expression. Something more than just a dribble of mutton fat off the chin. Something in the eyes maybe? A furtive thing? Or a heavy-lidded complacency with a gleam of secret satisfaction (well that will do for the little baa-baa's). Or is it a totally stricken look, the ultimate breach of trust? A kind of Judas Iscariot? Or is it only apprehension���where can he get another job? Another supply...? Best perhaps we try to think of someone, somebody we know who might possibly look like a shepherd who's eaten his sheep. Jimmy Swaggert? He has certainly at least bled his flock, but there they all still are and they seem to enjoy what he does to them. Some unscrupulous financier perhaps. This would seem to be a likely group alright. No question that they gobble up a lot of sheep, but do they look as if they do? I think not. These guys don't really react to eating their sheep. They seem to think it's just some kind of professionalism. Politicians then, the leaders, elected shepherds of us all. Why didn't we think of them at the beginning. But here again is a problem. I can't think of a one, Premier, Prime Minister or President, who has any look about him of having eaten his sheep. Rather, when we see them on the screens these days, beseiged as they almost always are with crowds of media, being battered perhaps with one shrilly repeated minor question which it is hoped will be embarrassing, the effect is that, more and more, the sheep are perhaps eating the shepherds. Is there no one then? Going back a bit I think of at least one. Stalin. Stalin looked exactly like a shepherd who had eaten his sheep; and if we go back to the early footage of his career, we find that in fact he looked more and more like a shepherd who'd eaten his sheep.

This ad was credited to two of my opponents, Carol Adams and Maureen Clayton. They have since disclaimed the ad but have publicly stated that they saw and approved of the contents of the ad before its publication and furthermore nobody has identified themselves as the author or originator of the ad. It is important that the inaccuracies contained in the ad be corrected as a matter of record: 1. All seven seats in the election for school board were not challenged by members or supporters of Sunshine Coast Parents for French (SCPF). Shirley Hall has publicly denied any such affiliation or sympathy with SCPF, for example. 2. No member of SCPF has statesd any intention to reinstate Early French Immersion (EFI) in the public schools here. The program actually serves 13 oer cent of its school population in the grades it is present. It has not been expensive to this school district ud any child has been able to enrol, thereby ensuring that it is not "elitist". 3. The court action brought by petitioners���all parents but not all SCPF members���has not cost the taxpayers anything because the school board has not yet paid the outrageously high bill. The bill should be "taxed" before the district forwards payment. 4. The petitioners have indicated a willingness to attempt to settle the issue of the process by which the school board makes decisions, out of court thereby avoiding any further legal fees an appeal would involve. According to the school board's lawyer from Davis & Co., the board has refused to follow this advice given by him. 5. I, Mary Findlay, am not the president of SCPF. My term ended in tate April when elections were held and Elaine Peers became president. 6. Although I officially changed my name from Mary Bland to Mary Findlay (my birth name) some time ago���the name was not registered on the voters' list. In order to be a can didate for school trustee my name had to be on the voters list, according to the returning officer, Malcolm Sluuiks. I made several inquiries in this regard and was told repeatedly that I could not run as Mary Findlay. So I had all my printed material completed with the same name as would appear on the ballot���Mary Bland. 7.1 ran in .Sechdt because I was asked to do so. All that is required are two constituents from the electoral district to nominate a candidate. A school trustee cannot in good conscience favour children of one area over any others in providing educational opportunities. My involvement and background in the school system stand as a testimonial to the fact that I am a multi-issue person with regard to my candidacy for school trustee. I am sorry for any misunderstanding that has arisen over this ad or my candidacy. Thank you for this opportunity to address the public on this matter. Mary Findlay Reader claims BC Tel sell swell Editor: The option being offered by BC Telephone for Sechelt residents to have free access to the city of Vancouver is a great opportunity, particularly in today's information driven world. Toll free service would allow students, teachers, researchers and others to tap into the Vancouver Public Library's extensive research files. New modem services at the library will be on line next summer when the toll free Sechelt service would start. The toll free service would allow unfettered access to the University of BC, to some of Canada's leading hospitals and medical clinics ��� for example to call a bedridden friend or to request information ��� and to the best entertainment in the province. You could buy your theatre tickets, book you hotel room and notify friends of your visit, all toll free. Honestly, the ability to call Vancouver any time without a toll would help everyone from truck mechanics seeking a part to grandparents wanting to talk to the children. Aside from these obvious advantages of a toll free link to Vancouver is the convenience it would provide for a great number of Sechelt residents who are struggling to work via fax, modem and phone with Vancouver from their electronic cottages. These people ��� part of a dynamic trend ��� nesed not commute if they can set up their office right here on the coast where their paycheques are spent. A toll free phone link with the city could be an enormous economic boon to .Sechelt while reducing ferry traffic. Vote yes for the toll free service to Vancouver.

Ever since the re-election of the Conservatives, Ihe opposition parties have made the GST an issue of par- tisan politics of the worst kind. Should we admire the courage and wisdom of the opposing parties to be against the tax? 1 say NO, not unless they propose a concrete alternative, whose consequences are as specifically known and spelled out as the consequences of the GST.

The hypocrisy of this stance is somewhat amusing. If their same arguments were applied to their own field they would find their medicine cabinets bare. There is one certainty in the use of such substances be they herbicides or drugs, and that is there never will be definitive answers on all potential effects. Most reasonable people will continue to weigh the benefits against the known side-effects, consider the risks, and then act accordingly. Such people looking at herbicide use in forestry in BC today, would quickly surmise that relative to human health, the operations are obviously benign. If the good doctors of St. Mary's are looking for meaningful issues to address in the human health field, one would think it unnecessary for them to wander sp far afield. May I suggest they start with the pervasive abuse of prescription drugs. R.M. Giza Gibsons 'suckered'? ments, or what we (the NDP) might do with our peculiar set of priorities. Trust us, but don't trust the PC's. Don't get carried away with our past record, we've changed (HolHo!). Just look how low we will stoop, jeopardizing the very institutions of government in Canada with every trick we can think of, to save you from the GST. If we have nothing specific to offer instead, just trust us. When we are in power we will find a way���jusi don't ask us what it may be. Fighting the GST, we think, is our best chance of election next time around, because none of you like taxes, right? So our municipal ballot will ask the citizens of Gibsons to join in these partisan politics, by inviting you to vote against the tax. And I think it's a disgraceful abuse of our electoral process. I offer a parable. A man stands at a fork in the road. One fork leads down a path abundantly clear in its hardships and destination. The other is a complete unknown. Down the other fork may be quicksand, washouts, overflowing rivers, the very gates of Hell. A serpent advises the man: "You know where the first fork goes and you don't want to go there, do you?

Renaud, left, leaves Curator Jean MuntWI, right, in charge as David Morgan and Jennifer MacKowan do a Utile out of dais study. ���Joel JohruloM photo An exhibit in Sunnycrest Mall Art students make mark Elphinstone students are making their mark on the graphic arts scene with their first exhibit last week at Sunnycrest Mall. The Career Preparation Program, instructor Jude Renaud has nurtured since starting out with six Grade 12 students, has now blossomed into an exhibit featuring 85 works of art and photographs. It has the makings of the first work co-operative program on the Sunshine Coast for grade level students. Five students have sold works to Sunnycrest shoppers at the exhibit, which they designed, set up and conducted with the blessing of the mall, who donated the space in the vacant Knitwits section. Ii "What happened here," says Marketing Director for Sunnycrest, Batyah Frerhw, "is that they asked for a space two weeks prior to the end of the month so I offered this space free of charge." This is what the students wanted, Renaud says, and it is just the beginning of a series of displays they hope will result in a permanent home for their travelling show. The gallery of visual works' will be at the Roberts Creek Hall from November 30 to December 8. It will then move to the Women's Institute Hall in Gibsons for a December IS opening. The students have received approval from the Town of Gibsons to put on a display at City Hall in Council Chambers. Renaud adds that both the Town and the School Board want the class to put on a presentation, but she and the students will hold off until the new council and board representatives are in place before they deal with that prospect. Meanwhile, Renaud sings the praises of the dedication being shown by her class and has been proud to hear positive responses and commentary from the exhibit's visitors. The professionalism they are displaying in both works and attitudes, have led to students being placed with local businesses such as E & E Photography. Photographers June Boe and Ted Peters have taken students under wing, and Photoworks in Trail Bay Mall is holding out for one of their own too, Re- nand says. L >!

It will also help fund the purchase of an Amiga 2000 computer so that the class can progress into the computer generated art field. One of the first bright lights to shine is Patricia Hammond, who was chosen out of a field of 90 submissions by professional and amateur artists to display her work at the Sechelt Arts Centre Juried Arts Show. She has also been invited to carry on a display of her works at the Showpiece Gallery in Gibsons. The experience that the young artists are gaining from the presentation work, will also be .aided by marketing spwaMU Fremes stepping into class to share her knowledge towards the selling of thdr works. Renaud hopes the students' confidence will grow as they receive more and more feedback from the community at large. Fears for watershed Continued from Page 1 is thorough and comprehensive, it draws largely on the existing information of othetr watersheds in the province that have litde in common with the Chapman watershed. Hind-Smith, stating that he has seen lnterfor maps depicting proposed roads into the heart of the Chapman watershed, "doesn't understand why no action has been taken to ensure this doesn't happen." He states that all interested parties (the SCRD, local logging interests, the Forest Ministry and the public, represented by Hind-Smith and Almond) are in agreement that a Tetrahedron Wilderness Park is at least a possibility. Hind-Smith, himself a Tetrahedron Alliance member, has .been unsuccessful in turning the Alliance's attention away from the recreational area and focusing at least some of its energy on the wilderness park and the possible harm to the watershed. "If the recreational site is made open to public use before the wilderness park is established," asserted Hind-Smith, "there will be litde to stop the logging interests from moving into the area of the proposed wilderness park and, therefore, the watershed."

Coast News, November 26,1990 community news RCMP in an emergency by .George Cooper, M6-M10 Someone witnesses an accident or a misdemeanor and hurries to the police station at night to report, rings the doorbell. No answer. Walks away grumbling? Or turns to the telephone a few feet away at the side of the street? If no coins are available, dial 0 and the operator will put the call through. Within second of giving the information to the police dispatcher the officers in the patrol cars are apprised of the information and are responding to it. From a private telephone a call to 886-2243 will connect you to the police at any time in the 24 hours of the day. During office hours the call is taken by the staff in the Gibsons RCMP building and the information immediately passed to the officers for action. After hours, dialing 886-2245 puts the caller directly in touch with the RCMP Telecom- munication Centre in Van- COUVCT. "We bought a line connecting us with Gibsons RCMP," the Centre's supervisor, Sandy Vogstad told us, "which means the line is open only for calls to 886-2245. After office hours in Gibsons the clerk there flips a switch and all calls to that number come directly to us in Vancouver. We can immediately radio the patrol cars. All this within 10 or 15 seconds of receiving the call." The Telecommunications Centre, one of many in the province, serves Sechelt detachment by a separate direct line. For short, the Centre is referred to as '43' by the RCMP here. "The line is available only for citizens' calls," Sfuidy emphasize. AU calls are taped and retained for one month," she continued, "If an officer needs information regarding a motor vehicle license for example, we can provide it within seconds." In a motor vehicle and injury situation, for instance, '43' can, besides the officer on patrol, call the ambulance, tow truck, fire, and any other agency required. "In a situation where an RCMP member needs another member for back-up, '43' attends to it with no delay at all," Constable Jim McDonald told us. "The old ways with local dispatchers, sometimes new on the job, occasionally ted to some confused situations." "But no errors with '43'," he said.

ELECTION REFLECTIONS Folks with a sense of rumour had good pickings in the Gibsons municipal election,, particularly concerning campaign funds. Let's have open-to-view lists of donors next time, in 1993. The voters' total grew to 1849 on election day. Since 998 voted, the percentage voting is about 55 per cent. Terrific? H'mmm. Better than usual, yes, but that leaves 45 per cent that remained buried like clams in the mudflats of apathy. Good to see Joe Horvath a candidate again for school board. Joe was on the board for several years finishing up as chairman before he resigned in December, 1975. He had also been chairman of the Finance and PR committees.

Ms Spencer feels that part of the reason the Food Bank has fallen on hard times���and only a small part���has to do with its location. "The steps at Ken's appear to be too steep for some folk to navigate", she noted, adding that "You can reach the Food Bank and Nifty Thrifty's by the lane at the back of Hunter's Gallery."

Eric Small MAYOR ELECT byJaal��Ldflfcm,.M,MMl Roberts Creek is lucky to have such a talented, experienced dancer as Denise O'Brien living here. Denise O'Brian has spent an illustrious career dancing the world over with the Anna Wyman Dance Theatre, a contemporary dance troupe from Vancouver. During her 10 year career with Anna Wyman, Ms O'Brian has danced her way around Europe several times. One of the greatest honours of her career was to be ptf of the first modern dance company invited to tour China. This was in 1980. Ms O'Brian performed as a soloist to audiences of over 2000, all of them dressed in the Mao uniform. Her hosts, the Chinese dancers, would perform in sumptuous costumes and make-up, only to scrub their faces and don the customary plain blue uniform of the regime afterwards. As an honoured guest of the Communist Party, the Anna Wyman Dance Theatre was treated royally, not only to food, accommodations and all forms of courtesies, but also with invitations to edanoe theatre. All Chinese, O'Brian says, are dancers, and those who choose to dance professionally are government supported. The Chinese dancers are expert technicians dancing with incredible skill and grace. Ms O'Brian was in awe when asked by one of the accomplished Chinese dancers to teach her. There were other incredible sights and adventures in India and Mexico, but the most prestigous was the Dance Company's New York debut. To dance in New York gives a company recognition.

Yet, to dance in New York is unquestionably a climax to a damn's career. Denise O'Brian has seen the bright lights, thrilled the audiences, heard the applause. Now she's here in Roberts Creek to raise a family and to teach dance. Although a contemporary dancer, Ms O'Brian's background was in ballet. In her early years she was a student of Gwetnyth Lloyd, founder of the Royal Winnipeg Ballet Company and first lady of dance in Canada. Later, she travelled to London for two years of advanced studies at the Royal Ballet School. In London she danced in her first film. Nearby in Germany, she performed as a classical soloist with the Mainz Bailer. There were also many summer sessions at the Banff School of Fine Arts. Denise O'Brian is now teaching ballet, contemporary dance and creative dance for all ages. Classes are held in Gibsons and Davis Bay. Call Demise O'Brian (886-3831) for more information.

MARGARET McCAUGHAN-MORRISON Motorhomes and Pickup Campers New .and Used at Wholesale Prices HAPPY HOLIDAY MOTORHOME 886-9025 RENTALS, SALES ft SERVICE ltd. 888-8481 if m |1991 Autoplan Changes [PREMIUMS Who pays more?Why? Based on past experience and projections, ICBC requires 4.S per cent more premium income in 1991 - 3 percent to pay for claims and improved Autoplan benefits, plus I.S per cent to offset the impact of the federal Goods and Services Tax. Each year. ICBC determines which coverages, territories and vehicle uses have increased or decreased in relative claims cosl. If your premium is changed more than the average, it is because of the various factors which affect insurance rating: the value, age and use of your j3j| vehicle, where you live, what Sit coverage you choose and where you are on the Claim- Rated Scale. Compulsory Coverage The largest pan of your basic Autoplan insurance is made up of liability coverage (to protect you if claims are brought against you by others) and No-Fault Accident coverage. Premiums for these coverages, including extended liability, are being increased, on a province-wide average, by 4 per cent for claim-free motorists. As we mentioned above, depending upon where you live and the coverage you choose, the change in your premium may differ from the average. Collision & Comprehensive Each year about a third of all vehicle models are "aged" and the collision premium is adjusted lo reflect decreased value. Collision premium increases may apply to other vehicle models. Comprehensive coverage premiums are also adjusted to reflect claims experience, vehicle value, use and territory. Sharp increases in windshield, theft and vandalism claims have led ICBC to increase premiums for Comprehensive coverage by an average IS percent. Uninsured Motorist Protection (UMP) will cost $3 more. GST Impact When you buy your Autoplan insurance you will not pay the 7 per cent GST on your 1991 Autoplan premiums. Financial transactions of this nature are exempt. However, ICBC will be required to pay the GST on many goods and services it purchases. ANY GOOD NEWS? Yes. More and more people are participating in carpools and we've made a change thai will make carpooling an even better deal. In the past you could drive a vehicle rated lor "pleasure only" to and from work on only 4 days in a calendar month. We've increased that to 6 days so lhal. even in the longer months of the year, four carpool members who own pleasure-rated vehicles con share the driving to and from work without relating their vehicles, as long as each of them drives to work not more lhan 6 days in the calendar month. The change lo 6 days also applies to some other vehicle use classes. Ask your Autoplan agent to be sure you are ratesd correctly. Increased Weekly Benefits As of January I. 1991 accident victims who qualify will receive increased compensation for lost wages. ICBC is increasing the maximum weekly indemnity from $200 to $300 provided that, does nol exceed 75 fter cent of the victim's gross weekly income at the time of the accident. This will apply to all new claims as well as to all outstanding claims. Payments will not be retroactive but will start at the new level in January 1991. Short Term Savings Prior to January I, 1991 a surcharge of 5 per cent of the annual premium has been charged to people licencing and insuring their vehicles for periods of less than 12 months (short term licence and insurance). This surcharge has been reduced to 4 per cent (minimum $20) to make the short term option even more affordable. WHAT ELSE? Territories For insurance rating purposes. BC is divided into 14 territories. In the past your Autoplan agent asked where your vehicle was principally operated in determining your premium. Now. for most vehicles, the territory is defined as where the vehicle is "garaged" that is. "primarily located when nol in use". In most cases, this would be the vehicle owner's home address. This and other territorial changes have been made lo accurately reflect claims experience in different parts of Ihe Province. Commercial Rate Classes As of January I. 1991. new value ranges and rale classes apply to commercial vehicles lo account lor increases in Ihe price of new vehicles and deregulation in the industry. The dividing line between lighl and heavy commercial vehicles is now set ai 5.(XK) kilograms and operating distances have been redefined. Commercial operators need to contact their Autoplan agents to determine how these changes affect them. Please Note: These Autoplan changes are effective Januaty I, 1991.

Their next exchange, December 3, will lie a ceremonial passing of the Town Key to mark the beginning of Small's term for the next three years. -Joel Johutoae pinto by Joel Johnstone Mayor Diane Strom presided over her last Town of Gibsons council meeting last Tuesday amid the glare of Channel 11 camera lights, news media faces, a crowd made up of a mix of council-elects, and incoming Mayor Eric Small (notepad in hand), regular attendants for regular concerns, flushed faces from the day's fresh developments, and a subdued trio of aldermen. The meeting agenda, relevant reports and minutes laid out for Alderman Gerry Dixon lay unruffled in front of his empty chair. And regular business began. A proclamation to declare December I to 7 official Elves Club Week in lieu of hard work and the needy, was read, followed by adoption of last meeting's minutes. A letter recommending Hayden Killam and the Valentine Lands Corporation look to the Sunshine Coast Regional District to resolve their water re- Yacht Club docks challenged again by Stuart Burnside "Procedure was clearly violated in the first process," SCRD Director Gordon Wilson told Bill Hunsche at the November 22 meeting of the SCRD. Hunsche, a Garden Bay resident, appeared at the meeting to enlist the SCRD's aid in halting the approval of a foreshore lease by the Seattle Yacht Club (SYC), an organization of boating enthusiasts who use Garden Bay as a harbour for two months of the year. Wilson's assertions of procedural violation was in reference to events which occurred in May of this year when, according to Hunsche, the SYC made expansions to its existing docks in Garden eBay by some 30 per cent based upon an application to do so that was never approved in writing by the .Land Management Branch. Hunsche, acting on behalf of Graham Lewis, who owns the neighbouring waterfront to the south of the yacht club, said, that while the club was ordered to remove its new floats, (something the club did comply with), they were also to move their main dock toward the north a distance of 30 to 35 feet, something they have yet to do. The 30 to 35 feet in question, says Hunsche, means the SYC's main dock is on Lewis' property and its presence makes access to Lewis' own floats "awkward and possibly dangerous." Hunsche went on to say that he felt he had exhausted all other avenues of action, from the Coast Guard to the Ministry of Crown Lands, and was now asking the SCRD for help in stopping the SYC's application process until they comply with previous government dictates. The deadline for objections to the application, according to Garden Bay resident Edith Daly, also at the meeting, is December 7 and when the SCRD was asked what could be quests was moved to forward to the necessary parties involved. The Planning Committee meeting of November 13 had no report or results or recommendations due to the fact it didn't take place, council choosing instead to leave planning to the newly elected who take the reins on December 3. The West Howe Sound Fire Protection Committee meeting of November 5, dealt with a bylaw of which there was no discussion, extraneous listing of chapters or sections, pursuant to's or subsections. The Sunshine Coast Maritime Society report read by Town Administrator Lorraine .Goddard mentioned a four-by-four foot wall, a trench was excavated, a considerable amount of water was found, the drain and backflll left as is. No motion or recommendation. No motion to carry. Alderman Lilian Kunstler read a letter from and about the Provincial Emergency Program noting "there must be an area co-ordinator in place." She done before that date, Gordon Wilson said a letter of objection would be drafted the following day When the district members were asked by Hunsche what, if anything, could be done by the SCRD to bring and keep the SYC into compliance, he was told by Director Jim Gurney, that while the area in question was in fact crown land, it was possible to have it rezoned and brought under SCRD jurisdiction. went on to mention a move towards allowing Elphinstone students to be allowed to exhibit their artwork in council chambers. Strom, though in favour, suggests council leave it to the incoming new members Kunstler drew a small round of applause for her farewell as she said "Thanks for involve ment. I know 1 will still be involved for the young people and others in Gibsons." Strom followed a few minutes later with "thanks ta the. aldermrm, staff and especial!; the citizens of ��� jibsons. I'm sure, we'll all be around...it's been'a, wonderful eight years." To note, only a few steps out side the realm of calm proceedings took place. Strom introduced the newly- elects, all of whom were present. Alderman John Reynolds cut short Planner Rob Buchan during his report where Buchan was attempting to refute claims made by Maritime Historical Society member Joe Belanger in his letters to local newspapers the previous week. Reynolds later said, to tie up some loose ends, "I would like to deal with a point which has bothered me over the last two years," and went on to implement a motion to have the health unit pay $3.95 a square foot for their space. Kunstler noted the next council may have a differing point of view and led the two to one defeat with ally Ken Collins. With passage of some regular by-laws, to which there was no argument, and the consensus that no more meetings would take place before the passing of the town key, council adjourned.

A good deal has been accomplished. Among many accomplishments, probably the single most noteworthy, has been the establishment of government on a proper business basis, that has been fastidiously fiscally responsible." At about this point, Meredith appeared to be speaking largely improvisationaily. His theme was the importance of maintaining the District's staff in a way and at a level at which they (deserved) to be accustomed. The mayor was quite choked-up as he reminded his listeners that "Our (staffing level) amounts to about one-third of what other municipalities maintain!" At this point Meredith appeared to look dire<ctly at Mayor-elect MacLarty, as if to make the point that long before and during her campaign she has declared her intention to' streamline Gty Hall���if elected. Meredith closed his remarks with an appreciative nod in the direction of the Council with which he had engaged in civic combat on many occasions. "I am proud of the Council's ' accomplishments and take this opportunity to thank each member for the cooperation and understanding I have received. This is not to say we haven't had differences - and we have - and many... This is, and has ban, healthy... Generally we have reached consensus without too much difficulty... I .am most grateful for the loyalty and support of all members of staff. It has been a pleasure working with them." Then Mayor Tom Meredith posed for the camera with his Council at the Coast News' request, and took his colleagues in camera one last time.

Continued from page 1 organizer, Lola Westell, said they had phoned their own lawyer, Bob Bauman, who specializes in the Municipal Act of BC, and who advised them there were provisions in place which could bring the work being done to a standstill. Bauman then advised the Town of Gibsons lawyers which provisions might be applied. Response by Town of Gibsons Administrators and Mayor Diane Strom as to exactly how the town came to be advised by their lawyers (of the MacKenzie Murdy law firm) are somewhat conflicting, but Buchan points out there was either a verbal or written correspondence between Bauman and the town's lawyers which sped up procedures leading to his serving of a Cease and Desist Letter of Notice from his office to the contractor which brought a halt to the drilling. Forty-eight of the 60 holes had been drilled but, it wasn't the notice which stopped the holes at that number. Sue Sleep and her three year old son, Col- wyn, sat themselves down too close to the drill for Fowler to continue safely and Mrs. Sleep refused to move. "I hope to hell Rob Buchan can do something to stop them legally," she said, adding that "Killam thinks the rules tire there to be bent. I've never done anything radical for anything in my life, but I think this is worth fighting for. I watched them chip away at North Wales and I don't want to see that here." When Fowler walked away asking if "someone would talk some sense into her," Sleep turned to son Colwyn and said "See, they shut it off. I told you they would. They're not stupid." Dr. Ed Steeves, on the scene with fellow alderman-elect, Walter Bradshaw, attempted to talk with Mrs. Sleep, but she refused to move until Buchan had returned to the rock from his office. Alderman Lilian Kunstler, concerned with the amount of time it was taking to procure a notice to stop "this Machiavellian scheme," returned to city hall and some 20 minutes later returned to where Katherine McManus and others awaited Buchan's arrival. Also on hand were BC Fish and Wildlife Conservation Off- ficer Doug Pierce and nature photographer Sean Vanstrepen, who were both anxious about the disturbance the drilling and possible blasting might cause the eagles nesting out of Eagle Ttte.

Another concern^ citizen on the scene, Tim Turner, said "I just wish there was the political will to show this guy times have changed...this guy (Killam) is old guard to show the insen- sitivity he's shown towards development in this community." But what everyone present was most caught up in was the guessing game revolving around Killam's motives for undertaking the blasting of Gospel Rock, Two days later the Coast News finally reached the developer. Killam said "I think at this particular time I am not going to comment," and would not talk to the press about it. He did mention "I will just let them wonder about my motives" and said he was off to Africa until the end of January. "I am not going to get involved at this stage and I'm not going to do anything until I get back." Prior to this conversation, however, the Coast News had occasion to discuss Mr. Killam's possible reasons for wanting to blast Gospel Rock, with his lawyer, Michael Welsh. "Basically Mr. Killam intended to improve the view," said Mr. Welsh, adding that "He also wanted to (level) the area to make it easier for the handicapped..." Welsh further indicated that Mr. Killam, if and when his zoning problems were resolved in his favour, would be blasting Gospel Rock for homesite purposes, so it made sense to do the job now. Welsh's letter of November 23, states: "We are still review ing the matter of whether the Official Community Plan does validly designate the above property in whole or in part as a development area. Assuming for argument's sake that it does, we still fail to see that you have any right to demand a development permit for the blasting work our client was undertaking on Tuesday last. "...Alteration of land at Gospel Rock is not within the purview of (the town's notice) sections. We therefore take the position that your "stop work" directive was made without lawful authority. "We understand that your planner only issued this directive on the order of your administrator, acting on advice of your solicitors, as the planner did not himself believe a development permit was required. Our client advises that Mr. Buchan had in earlier conversations indicated that a blasting permit might be necessary. In fact, no permit is required so long as properly licensed blasters are utilized, as was done." Determining Killam's motivation was the key reason Buchan says he delayed serving the notice, but pointed out that Friends of Gospel Rock (FOGR) lawyers were helpful in expediting legal procedures. "I think we (the town and FOGR) were on the same course and it was just a matter of g^j confta^L proaching it from different angles. My whole day from eight to two was in putting out this fire." He said he left several messages and would have liked to talk to Killam but he couldn't be found. At the Town Council meeting Tuesday evening Buchan showed Killam's lawyers the section under the Municipal Act under which the notice was served. He also thanked the concerned citizens and members of the community who had helped during the morning's crisis. Buchan notes that, a while back, when the 18.S acre park was in mind, a parking lot with a pathway to the rock had been considered and the idea of having wheelchair access on a level Gospel Rock may have been put in place. "Had (the blasting) been for that purpose perhaps it might have gone to council. Perhaps it might have ebeen approved. I don't know. That's why my efforts were to talk to Killam to find out what he was doing and why." Diane Strom said any variance would certainly have to come before council but "I can't imagine this council would give him a permit to blast." Meanwhile Catherine McManus, president of FOGR, claims her organization was instrumental in getting the town to take action legally. She feels that if not for FOGR paying their lawyer to advise town lawyers to seek a notice under provisions in the Municipal Act, "Gospel Rock would be blown up. "It was a serious situation that had to be dealt with immediately," she notes, but insists the town did not give any indication there was going to be anything done and that her organization, while absorbing the costs incurred to them, shouldn't be in a position where they have to watchdog the development area of Gospel Rock. Buchan, called hero on one hand when serving the notice, and accused later of being part of an administration sitting on its hands over the issue, rebutts by saying "I was not asleep at the wheel and most definitely not sitting on my hands. I don't want to be viewed as an enemy of Gospel Rock because that certainly is not my role." As of Friday, 47 of the 48 holes drilled had been filled in by "a person or persons I do not know or know of," Buchan to all who supported me in the recent election for Area 'E' Director JIM GURNEY KIDS Trail Bay Mall.

Coast News, November 26,1990 Manual brushing by Marv Volen The subject of "manual brushing" in local papers has caught my eye since I personally, have likely done more of that kind of work than anyone in British Columbia. It might be useful to give you a little background in the telling of my story. I don't want to get the backs up of the environmentalists nor the multinational corporations, but I do believe I can back up my thwry on reforestation and brush control. My first adult job was in 1928 when at 12 years old I was a straw-monkey on a steam threshing outfit in Saskatchewan. That job consisted of being responsible for and driving a team of horses and wagon to supply straw for the steam engine's fuel. For the next eight years, I ex- perienced the drought, dust storms, depression, army worms, grasshoppers, jack rabbits, potato bugs, you name it. To make up for some of that I came to beautiful British Columbia where my first job took me to the mile-high town of Pioneer (a gold mine). There I was sent down a one mile deep hole in the rock called a shaft. After a couple of years at Pioneer the company sent me to the west of Vancouver Island, an isolated gold prospect, mainly because I had an industrial first aid certificate. At that camp I had my first look at a rainforest tree. It was a yellow cedar, six feet in diameter at the undercut, and 80 feet to the first limb where the diameter was still five feet. This tree became camp firewood. An oldtimer remembers how it was done Subsequently, I was aboard the Lady Rose in mid- November, 1939, in the evening, arriving at the Gibsons dock. I wondered what this town had in store for me. There was one light visible and that was a coal oil lantern on the dock. Little did I know that my first logging experience would be at the head of the Bay Cater the Gibsons Marina) chopping down alder trees with an axe, cutting them into 10 and 12 foot lengths, dragging them with horses onto the beach, placing them on dog liner and off to Hammond Furniture in Vancouver. I should now introduce you to some of the early pioneer loggers that influenced my life. They were the Chamberlin brothers, Clare, Clarde and Clay. The ones that influenced my work were Clarde's sons, Raymond and Les. Clare's son was Cecil. The other pioneer Gibsons family which influenced my life was John and Myrtle Hicks and their daughter Peggy, whom I married in 1946. I have often thought how much better our democracy would be if, for example, when choosing a Minister of Forests we could be practical, forget politics and choose a very knowledgeable, practical gentleman by the name of Les Chamberlin. At least they did let him serve Sechelt Forest District. My brushing experience began with my first contract with BC Tel, while a member of Gibsons Volunteer Fire Department. Fred Feeny at BC Tel asked me why I didn't try to get a tree trimming contract. I looked at a local line and gave Fred a price. The North Vancouver representative came to meet me. He told me my price was pretty low and that they usually pay two or three times that much, and askesd me if it was enough. I assured him I would complete the job. From then on, for many years, 1 did all their clearing from Port Mellon to Pender Harbour, Keats, Gambier and some in Powell River. The telephone lines were, in many areas, close to the ground so our crew pulled small saplings out by the root, by the tens of thousands. It was faster, and more effective than using the chain .saw or curved pruning saw. For BC Tel we had to be sure the bottom of the line was clear���that also helped their 'bottom line'. Where the saplings were too large to pull out we made sure to cut them as close to the ground as possible (ie., one inch) and they would seldom sprout new shoots; but in cases of larger stumps, a minute amount of brush killer could be applied to the individual stump. Some of the other big mistakes they make in replanting is waiting a year to replant. In some areas I know they have waitrf more than a year and this gives the competitive brush and weeds too much of a head start. The logger is the one that should be required to plan and execute the harvest and the replanting. Furthermore, forest land, whether small or large, private or public, should be replanted, and we, the people, should .accept environmental responsibility���whether it's flooding Native land in the north for Alcan, which already gets its power 25 times cheaper than we do, or the cleanup of Expo lands for a couple of examples. Evct if we don't have much respect for others, we should cultivate self respect.

The Sunshine Second Section Halfmoon Bay taxidermist Dave Marchand concentrates on his art. ���In MkkMtSktnMu photo Mandrax awarded storage contract by Stuart Burnside The firm of Mandrax Enterprises Ltd, of Kelowna, BC, was awarded a $290,000 contract by the SCRD November 22, for the construction of a new 500,000 gallon water storage unit. The new tank, made of bolted steel and concrete, would replace the water storage unit currently supplying Area E, a wooden reservoir capable of holding 50,000 gallons of water. According to SCRD Director Jeremy Frith, the new tank would improve water pressure to houses below it, although water would still have to be put.iped to those above, and would provide a much needed surplus of water in the event of drought or fire. Director Jim Gurney said the price of the new tank was so good that the engine��ering firm of Dayton & Knight, who did the initial estimates for the reservoir, should be consulted regarding the feasibility of a second 500,000 gallon tank, bringing capacity to 1,000,000 Director Frith said that while at the present time the Town of Gibsons won't have access to the water, he is hopeful that the Gibsons Town Council and the SCRD can work together in the creation of a single water district board that would make water available to all at a fair price. . Gibsons recently spent approximately $12,000 drilling a well that remains dry. Stuffing them with style Taxidermist lives and breathes his art by Jan Michael Sherman Tell Dave Marchand to "Stuff it!" and you'd better be prepared to pay a good price for your request. The 30 year-old native of Southern Ontario, raised outside of Windsor, is a former child care worker with a diploma from Mount Royal College in Calgary. But a few years ago, weary of the politics and wary of Incipient burnout, the quiet-spoken Marchand cast about for something to do which was more compatible with his needs and his nature. "Taxidermy has always fascinated me���it is truly something I can honestly say I always wanted to do", Marchand said. He was relaxing in an overstuffed chair in the tiny, but cozy, workshop office he rents in what appears to be a converted barn on Mintie Road overlooking Halfmoon Bay. "The Marchands have been hunters for a long time", the Sunshine Coast's only licensed taxidermist noted, explaining where his interest in the art ("It's not a craft���it's considered an art form") originated. Marchand respectfully set a stuffed owl on the bench, a piece done by someone else but brought to him for repairs by its present owner. "My dad took me on my first moose hunt when I was 16, but I got my first rabbit at about 12." Dave smiled a bit wistfully: "I got it with a bow and arrow. The arrow was home-made. 1 used a point from a compass as the tip." After working for close to six years in Calgary with emotionally abused (and substance abusing) teens, some of whom still keep in touch with their former counselor, Marchand decided to take taxidermy courses as a hobby. "I studied with a man in Calgary named Jim Penn. He's retired now���sold his business for a million dollars���but he's a fifth-generation taxidermist." Marchand paused momentarily, eyeing an entirely lifelike coyote which appeared to be eyeing him back. "Jim Penn was considered one of the best taxidermists in the world. Once he was commissioned to fly over to India to mount an elephant!" Marchand smiled appreciatively, as if he'd jump the next ferry should some similar opportunity cross his path. "They had to use a crane to lift the hide", said Marchand, adding that "The body was made of hand-carved balsa wood." This remark brought Dave to the subject of authenticity and realism in his art. "In the 'old days'���up to about 30 years ago���materials and techniques were radically different. Then the use of styrofoam for bodies came in, along with other so-called 'high tech' stuff like fleshing machinery and more realistic prosthetics. "Faster work and more realistic specimens is what the taxidermists were after", Marchand noted. "People doing the work had arrived at a point where the> couldn't afford to practise the art for the fees clients were willing to pay. Taxidermists had slowly pricesd themselves out of business, so things had to change." Marchand went on to explain that he could mount, say, a coyote's head for $400 using the more modem approaches and techniques. But should a natural wildlife museum request the same thing it would carry a $7000 fee. "They want strict authenticity as well as realism. I would be using the animal's skull, teeth, tongue, bones, et cetera", Marchand said, "And this entails a highly labour-intensive ap proach. I enjoy working this way���using the old taxidermist ways���but the cost is prohibitive for just about any client except an institution." A good taxidermist, once established, should be able to earn between $50,000 and $70,000 a year. "There's between 20 and 30 taxidermists operating in Calgary", Marchand said, "And most who've been in business for, say, five years, are booked solid for two. Bring them something to mount and you can expect to wait close to two years to get it back." Marchand's plan is to establish himself on the Sunshine Coast, then offer courses in taxidermy to private students. He would also sell the various exotic taxidermic supplies to those who studied under him. Taxidermists must be licensed by the Fish and Wildlife Department, and stand to have their license lifted should they work on certain animals, or animals who have been illegally killed. "If anyone brings me songbirds, birds of prey, or certain sea birds, I have to refuse to work on them���unless the person has a permit to mount from Fish & Wildlife. If someone came in with, say, a hawk he'd shot���I'd report that person." Please turn to page' 21 ^.footprints TRAIL BAY MAIL SECHELT 16.

In general appearance it resembles many other small logging/fishing communities along the West Coast. The town boasts most of the usual amenities, including a pub. There is a legend (not included in the travel brochures) concerning Charlotte City's first pub. It opened for business shortly after World War II. The Woods were booming in those days���the loggers feisty, thirsty and bushed. At the beginning of a holiday weekend, they converged on the brand new beer parlour from several surrounding camps. Things got pretty lively. When closing time was announced, the rowdy brush- apes would have none of it. They ejected the manager and the waiters and proceeded to drink the place dry. The party went on for several days. It is not reported whether any charges were ever laid but the owner closed up shop then and there. It was years before anyone had the nerve to open a beer parlour in the town again. Just prior to our visit, Charlotte City was subjected to something quite out of keeping with the average outsider's picture of the rainy Island climate- a drought. The village has an erratic water system and is largely dependent on wells and small creeks. Extremely dry weather in September depleted these sources and local residents had to rely on a water truck running back and forth from Tarundyl Creek, several miles away. Recent heavy rains have alleviated the situation for the moment. To explore Graham Island, you follow the Yellowhead Highway, a good blacktop road. It turns north at the Haida village of Skidegate and hugs the shoreline. The tide is up on this particular day and the weather momentarily clement. A jury of cormorants crowds a wave-washed rock. Several miles up the highway, we stop at St. Mary's Spring, a famous local landmark but easy to miss unless you keep your eyes open. It lies above the highway, watched over by the wooden statue of a nun-like figure. We sample the pure achingly-cold water, fully aware of the local belief that all who Channel 11 do so are fated to return to the Charlottes. Just past the Spring lies the small community of T'lell, scattered randomly along the upper side of the highway. The settlement was founded in I904 by a legendary pioneer named Mexican Tom. At first glance it seems to consist of a post-office and little else, but there is more to the place than a casual glance would suggest. It incorporates three successful working ranches, a couple of lodges and several small businesses including, rather incongruously, an electronics shop. T'lell is also home to the Island's weekly newspaper, The Queen Charlottes Observe, a lively little journal, founded in I969 and printed in an easy-to- read magazine-size format. Edited by local writer, Jeff King, it is a cheerful, well- produced publication, full of local news and gossip. Earlier, we interviewed Paul Semetz, reporter-at-large for the Observetr. Semetz, an interesting well- informed young guy, makes his home in Charlotte City. He is a relative newcomer to the Islands but the nature of his job has given him a very solid handle on local affairs. I was surprised to learn that the Charlottes have no independent governing body but are ad ministrated from Prince Rupert as part of the Skeena District���a fact that rankles many Islanders. We discuss the recent drought. Semetz tells us that a dowser was brought in and he has apparently located a large water pocket about 175 feet Mow the surface. We also touch on the Islands' literary legacy. (Poets Susan Musgrave, Sean Virgo and J. Michael Yates all lived and wrote here in the back-to-the-land days of the Seventies-) To be continued...

Players sparkle In "Living Together" David Short highsteps a funny walk as Tim Anderson takes a curtain call for the Driftwood Players' presentation of Alan Ayckbourn's 'Living Together' at the Women's Institute Hall from November 22 through December 1. -Joed Johnstone photo by George Cooper Living Together, the Driftwood Players fall presentation, opened last Thursday to a nearly full house. The audience responded in joyful laughter to the hilarious Ayckboum comedy. And the performance was a crisp interpretation of the characters the playwright presents in caricature. The play burst into life in the second scene after a seeming ponderous beginning. There the rollicking mayhem of this 'friendly' family gathering set responsive laughter rippling throughout the remainder of the play- Norman, the scamp, the scapegrace, the rip, was ably playd by Tim Anderson. Norman's aim in life is the conquest of the ladies, and by play's end he has unheroically done just that. Even his own wife falls a victim. Reg, the patient foil to his wife's withering remarks is played with quiet assurance by David Short. Short provides a hilarious tidbit, a 'worm's turn' response to his wife's criticisms. Annie, smoldering in frustration, is winsomely played by Dianne Evans. David Fraser's Tom is a suitably naive and stupid husband. Neest Lewis' portrayal of the remote and self-centred wife is a subtle interpretation of ironic humour. Whenever Colleen Elson was on stage, the action noticeably sparkled. She brought just the right touch of venom to her every utterance, gesture, turn of head. This is the first community play in the Women's Institute Hall now in the very beginning stages of its restoration. President Fred Inglis can be justifiably proud that a dream now begins to take real form. ^GIBSONS *1legion Branch 109 Andy's Restaurant- Lunch and dinner specials every day. Closed Mondays.

Coast News, November 26,1990 Play ball Indoors by Al Robertson ~ ~ This is a request to all you ball players that have nothing better to do than be couch potatoes on Tuesday nights. Instead of sitting around watching TV there's the opportunity for stardom on the court at Elphinstone High School. There are no Dr. J's or Larry Birds, just some of the local lads battling it out. Sometimes it's intense, sometimes it's sloppy, but it's fun and it's exercise. However, there's a problem: We need more players; full court, five a side, for two hours is pretty demanding on the bunch of us. So if you're interested, it's every Tuesday, 8 pm to 10 pm at Elphinstone High. It costs S3 a session. Come dressed to play. For more information call Bill at 886-7509 or Al at 8864929, after 6 pm.

It seems like such a short time, and the time is especially short when everyone is having a good time. Everyone at the bonspiel seemed to be enjoying themselves and we sure do like to see all those outside rinks here; but we don't like them to be so successful! They took away all the first prizes this year: First place in the A event, first in the B event, first in C and first in D. Coast teams did very well after that, j however, taking all the second place finishes and taking our share of the third and fourth places. Winner of the A event was the Smith rink from Delta, skipped by Les Smith. They beat out a very good tesam from our club skipped by Roger Hocknell. Winner of the B event was the Black rink from Cloverdale who beat out the team of Ed Hill from Gibsons. In C event, another team from Powell River won the event again this year. The Rankin team won out over Larry Paradon team from the Gibsons Winter Club. D event was taken by the Deptuck team who defeated the Robinson team. There are a lot of voluitt��ersI to be thanked for their work lastl weefcfend: The ladies who work-" ed the kitchen and the bar, the executive and bonspiel committee for thdr excellent organization, the crews who prepared the ice, the phone committee members. We want to thank you all for the hard work and energy you put in on behalf of the club. It is through your efforts that the Winter Club has been such a success for so many years. We would also like to thank those businesses in the community which donated prizets and trophies. Thanks to the following sponsors: A event, Molsons; B event, Cedars Pub; C event, Swanson's Ready Mix; D event, Coastal Tires. We sure do appreciate your support and your gracious giving over the years. Without your support, we would not be able to keep giving such wonderful prizw to all the event winners. A special thank you is again extended to the Elphinstone Grads for their help in driving the curlers home. That is the second year of offering this fine service and it made such an impression on some of the outside teams that they are going to go home and suggest a similar program for some of their own communities. You are indeed a fine group and the community should be proud of you. Well done. It shows what can be d<one by a great little comity. It was a great 'spiel and nnot wait for the next one in nuary.

MMMUM Coast News, November 26,1990 IO I Gibsons Slo-pitchers snag silver in Mexico Hoops from Stenner's. The Cedar's sponsored team played seven garnets in six days during their week long stay. Twenty-six teams, from all over North America, competed in the tournament. Pigs become bacon by Mark A mixed slow-pitch softball team comprised of players from the Cedar's Pub League won a silver medal in a tournament in San Jose Delcabo, Mexico. The team included Jossee Hovden, Kent Anderson, Grant Gill, and Joey linger representing the Ball Blasters; Cathy Grant, Joe Musgrove, and Dave Patton from the Cedar's; John Pritchard who plays for A & G Contracting; Roger Hinks who is with the Scummbies and Steve It was a very competitive tournament with five out of six gam<es within one run! They beat Edmonton 7-6 and Calgary 6-5. The game against Delta was a 5-5 draw and they lost 7-6 and 6-5 against two separate Calgary teams. In the thrilling final, the Gibsons area ball players lost a heartbreaker 11-7 to San Jose, California. All in all, quite a respeectable showing for a bunch of softball enthusiasts from the Sunshine Coast. Look out Mexico, November 1991, because there is a rumour that a couple of other teams are going to try their luck next year, and they have hopes of bringing back a gold medal! Thai's right gang! The Pigs are oh so dose to that elusive 'W. After the last couple of weeks of play it is truly evident these fellos are getting the hang of it. Persistans and patience, also a lot of good humour, are showing through in the on field performance of the lads in blue. Coming off a creaming by the Meralomas side the week before, the boys came to practise, ready to learn more (as they did in the game). They were looking forward to the week ahead, as they would be pitted against the youngsters (mostly their same age) of UBC. November 3, vs UBC To Ah; once again overseas and land out to the Endowment Lands of higher learning and knowledge. Could this be an A-t- day for the Pigs? We'll seel! Midway through the game Ray 'Keg' Dow went down and Albetrt 'Albert' Bezaire was happily dragged into replace 'Keg'. Unfortunately what was to be a promising and hopefully rewarding day, turned out like the conditions; wet and slippery. The lads still gave it their all, and were just short of the try-line on a few occasions and missed the scoreboard. UBC 20, PigsO.

You've got to know the happiness of a Pig in rain. Crazy or not the match goes on. You betcha; up to the Coast came the Trojans. Plenty of bodies to spare and excitement high. This truly was a day in the __ 19. name of rugby. As the opening whistle went off, everyone was already soak- ed, not to worry about those monster puddles. We're the PIGS!!! While the game wore on, these were exactly the bodies involved (the forwards). Back and forth, to and fro, slippin' and slidin' the game went, when suddenly a first for our home boys, penalty kick for us, YA! We were on the board first, Trojans 0, Pigs 3.

VON 1V0 Stuffing in style Continued from page 15 Marchand also refuses to mount pets���chiefly tats and dogs���although he has done a pet parrot, birds falling into a different category psychologically for Marchand. "Taxidermists do receive some off-beat requests", Dave noted. "Jim Penn once had this old man show up at his shop with a real old German Shepherd on a leash. 'How much to stuff my dog?', asks the old man. Not wanting to do it, but not wanting to hurt the old man, Jim says '$2000' thinking the fee will scare the old guy off." Marchand reached down to stroke Duke, his six year old hunter who'd been monitoring the interview. "Well, the next day the old man showed up again���this time with his shepherd's dead body in the trunk of his car. He'd had the dog put to sleep- but just couldn't bear to part with it. "Jim wits quite astonished. Still hoping to scare the old boy off, he says 'I'll have to have 50 per cent down on the work'-and the old guy calmly writes him a check for a thousand. Jim wound up mounting the dog on a styrofoam wolf body." Earlier, at he, his wife, and son's temporary A-frame, Dave had shown me part of his collection of Aboriginal artifacts, a number of which he had discovered personally. But his most incredible And was not a flint arrowhead or digging tool. "About two years ago my brother Steve and I were winter hunting only 15 miles from downtown Calgary. We were tracking through this frozen bog and saw buffalo skulls and bones sticking up through the snow." , The wonder of that moment is still to be felt from Mar- chand's tone. "We went back in the spring and, sure enough, it was exactly what we'd felt it was���an ancient aboriginal buffalo hunting area. And it was immense! About a quarter by a half-mile in area. "We reported it to the head archaeologist for the Eastern Alberta Slopes and when he came to inspect the site, it absolutely blew his mind! Couldn't believe it. Anyway, eventually we received papers from the government saying that the site had been designated 'The Marchand Kill Site.' Kind of neat to leave your mark in Alberta, really a singular ex- perience for me and .Steve." Since Dave had some work to do on a thawing, silted bear carcass, my last question centered on what would happen should hunting ultimately be banned, not a remote possibility in an era where animal rights are being championed more and more successfully. "Well, first of all it would skyrocket the prkw of mounts already in existence. It might result in a deluge of work as people hunted right up to the ban and wanted their trophies mounted. Taxidermists would then have to subsist on 'roadside kills'..." For a moment there was only the gentle, rhythmic sound of Duke breathing. "Eventually", said up-and- coming taxidermist Dave Marchand quietly, "Eventually the art would wither away and die." But since he doesn't expect hunting to be banned any time soon, Dave headed for his bench and prepared to get on with his new life on the Coast. Oink! Oink! Pigs become bacon Continued from page 19 period, this club is showing major signs of turning the tide. Midway through the half there was a tremendous goal- line stand; time and again the Trojans banged away at the line, but ferocious and tenacious tackling held off a score. Pressure was released finally with a boot to touch. Great effort boys!! The Trojans' attack mounted yet another time, relief looked evident once more, but Mother Nature intervened. Winning the ball from the loose play on the five yard, there was then an attempted out to the backs, the ball dropped sadly into a swamp and died. The Trojan flyhalf coming across scopped up the pill and over for four points. Conversion good. Trojans 12, Pigs 3. Rats, close but no cigar. Fine effort by all!! November 17, vs Chilliwack Coming South on their naval assault craft, the Chilliwack RFC made an inter-league visit this weekend. The weather turned out to be splendiforous, unfortunately the boys in blue were not. What thoughts were in the minds of our lads, who knows? With hopes of putting that elusive 'W* on the board; into the match we gamely went. Size did not seem to be a factor in the contest, but spirit played the major role. Flat as pancakes were the Pigs and charged as a rocket were the opposition. Chilliwack 20, Pigs 4. Future events: Inter-squad game November 24; EXB-Lions at home, December 1.

Editor Watching television with my children I was very disturbed by the number of commerrcials which flog war toys. "War toys are all playthings which .are used to solve conflict, gain power, or win through violence, and which aim to wound or kill". (Swedish Play Council). These toys teach children to accept a militarized world that praises and awards violence and pretends that pwple don't suffer in a war. This Christmas there will be hungry children in war torn countries all over the world. As a parent, remember that peacemaking begins at home. "Real" toys help children to learn new things like riding a bike or playing on the computer. "Real" toys help children to play together by Killam chided EdHor'i Note: A copy of the following was received for An open later to Hayden Killam As a member of this community I find your ongoing and most recent antics (ie., drilling on Gospel Rock) both childish and inappropriate. It is unfortunate that our community must continue to indulge, through unfavourable press, an overindulgent personality. Your utter disregard for the relationship many people on the Sunshine Coast have developed with the promontory at Gospel Rock, is clear evidence of the boyish arrogance that you mysteriously And refuge in. Nobody is questioning the ownership and status of Gospel Rock���only the civility, motives and compassion of its owner. Grow up Hayden. This decade has ushered in a new resolve for community-based decision making and, like it or not, you are a member of the community. Shouldn't you think about acting like one? Property development requires responsibility and professionalism. It is not a business for little boys with big grudges.

Q: I'm thinking of buying a new car in 1991. How wiU the proposed GST affect prices? A: The outgoing Federal Sales Tax (FST) is now part of the price of new cars. So, while they will be fully taxed at 7% in 1991, the expected effect of replacing the FST with the GST on the average $22,000 mid'size car is a reduction of around $850. Q: My son has figured out it wiU cost $500 in lumber to build a dock at our cottage if he bought it now. How much will that lumber cost with the proposed GST? A: You can expect to pay about $512 for that same amount of lumber for personal use based solely on the changeover from the FST to the GST. Q: I know the proposed GST won't apply to city bus fares but I take the commuter train to work. WiU I have to pay GST? A: No. Daily commuter trains are considered a municipal transit service, so fores are exempt from GST. We're here to answer your questions about how the GST will affect prices.

For a small community, each new semi-annual concert features new faces and new talents along with the older standbys. This year featured for the first time were Mishka Vavrik, Flor Stegeman, Maureen Corbin, Margaret Humm and Brian Arbisson. Other individual artists peer- forming included Walter James, Alice Horsman, Kevin Onclin, Arline Collins, George Cavalier, Kevin Cohen, Ronnie Dunn, Floyd Carmen and Nikki Weber herself. Coupled with the group presentations by the 69ers, The Barbery Coasters, the Semi- Tones and Point Blank and the Rolling Tones, a most impressive and enjoyable musical evening resulted. Proceeds of the concert were a benefit for the new Branch 69 activity centre which is in the process of re-planning on a reduced scale for the Trail Avenue property. The performance will be repeated in Gibsons on November 23, with proceeds allocated to the Gibsons Branch of St. Mary's Hospital Auxiliary who have handled ticket sales for the event. Larry Grafton Gibsons questions Editor: Is there something wrong in the state of Gibsons? How did it happen that officials representing the Town of Gibsons did nothing to stop it for three hours while a blasting crew worked to demolish Gospel Rock? Why was it left to citizens to get a lawyer from Vancouver before the legal stop work order was considered and how come it took staff another two hours before that stop work order was delivered on site?

Coast News, November 26,1990 One coastal dispatcher High tech for firemen by Rm Nichohoe A new high tech communications system that would allow calls to all the voluntwr Tire departments on the Coast to be handled through one dispatcher was considered by Regional District Directors at the November 8 board meeting.

Last week's winner was Lesley Stoochnoff of Roberts Creek who correctly identified the rock at the top of Marlene Road In Roberts Creek. McPhee retiree Sechelt's man In charge of Emergency Preparedness, Art McPhee, has announced Ids intention to retire as of December 31,1990 after 15 yean with the towa. The announcetnen t was made by Alderman Rotwrt Wlbon daring the regular council meeting November 21. "Art did a yeoman's Job," the alderman noted in a heart-felt tribute, going on to ask for a letter from Mayor Meredith on behalf of the council citing McPhee's laudatory work over the years. Alderman Michael Shanks added to this request one of his own ��� that McPhee lie awarded with a plaque. Both tributes were approved unanimously. Beat evening Ray Manzarek, seminal keyboardist for The Doors, aad Beat Pod Michael McOnre, will appear ia concert together at Vancouver's Commodore on Sunday, December 2,1990 at la. Billed aa "...a night of Beat poetry and dance", Manzarek aad McChire will be presenting an eclectic fusion of poetry and music similar to shows the two have given sporadically ovw the part couple of yean. Entitled "Scratching the Beat Surface", the evening will also feature the Crazy Fingers Band and the musical juggling antics of (downs) Txi Whizz and Ross .Barrett. scribed the advantages of such a system for directors and volunteer firemen from all the fire districts. The system would integrate the regular telephone system with a radio communication network which would allow contact via pagers between firemen and the dispatcher, and between firemen in different districts. To do this, MacDonnell recommends that all fire departments switch to frequency 710 presently used by Roberts Creek, Halfmoon Bay and Pender Harbour. Another feature of the system would be the logging of all calls, which would be an advantage in tracing calls and a help in any subsequent legal investigative procedures. When asked what would happen if there was a power failure or the phone lines were knocked out, MacDonnell said that he would recommend a backup power source which would automatically convert the whole system to a radio operated mode and keep the communication intact. MacDonnell estimates that the bottom line cost of the system (not including a source of backup power) would be $134,000. Directors referred the matter to the finance committee for further consideration. sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssa \Jhank to all who supported me in the election for Alderman ��� Town of Gibsons Walter Bradshaw t%%0& DECEMBER ORGANIZATIONAL MEETING Wed., Nov. 28, 7:30 - Burke Block VOLLEYBALL - Tuesdays al Gibsons Elementary Irom 6:30 ��� 8:30 'til Dec. 11 TEEN DROP IN - From 7-11 In the Marine Room (below tbe library) Dec. 1 ��� Videos Dw.
