" THE SUNSHINE WHEN THE LOCALS EAT LOCAL I Overlooking tht Harbour Gibsons, B.C. 886-2268 50c per copy on news stands SERVING THE SUNSHINE COAST SINCE 1945 December 2,1991 Volume 45 Issue 48 Fish report slams DFO The Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) is slammed in a recently released report for its plans to radically reduce Canada's Pacific fishing fleet and for proposed policies that could give control of commercial fishing licenses to private corporations, speculators and foreign investors. The report, The Fisherman's Report, is the culmination of a six-month public inquiry headed by Licensing Commissioner Don Cruickshank, and cites a controversial DFO document, Vision 2000, as proof the government intends to distance itself from the fishing industry and institute limited licensing and private quota systems. ' Cruickshank said the Vision 2000 report called for \"transferable quotas\" for commercial licenses which could be bought or sold by those who possess them. He, however, felt there were already \"too many individuals making money off the backs of fishermen.\" to improve the commercial fishing industry Cruickshank called for: *a full assessment of quota fisheries *a halt on individual boat quotas 'increased salmon enhancement \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDhefty penalties for illegal fishing *the licensing of sport fishing operators *a reduction in the number of non-owner operators *more involvement of natives in the fishing industry In the report Cruickshank takes an optimistic view of commercial fishing's possible future, calling it a healthy publicly owned resource with excellent potential for more jobs. He said the objective was to increase the value of the industry through improved management and enhancement and, in doing so, to ensure the health of coastal communities and the province of BC. Gibsons OCP unveiled but not complete Ploughing along, Centra Gas pipeline crews reached Lower Gibons this past week and have nearly completed the stretch along Lower Road in Roberts Creek. One length of pipe along Highway 101 from Lower Road to Gibsons 'will connect Gibsons with Sechelt Joel Johnstone photo The public got its first look at the new Gibsons' Official Community Plan (OCP) last week, but was not able to see one of the most controversial sections because of a computer error. Although the section dealing wih Gospel Rock had been inadvertently left out of the plan presented at the November 26 council meeting, aldermen gave first reading to the plan which will be known as Bylaw 655. The section on Gospel Rock will be aired at the December 3 council meeting and will be included in the bylaw as an amendment The plan was put together during the last six months by a committee of 13 Gibsons residents which included aldermen Margaret Morrison and John McNevin, with town planner Rob Bgchan serving as advisor. Morrison, chairman of the committee, explained the plan is essentially a \"statement of intent for the community's future\" and when finally adopted will be a legal document which will ensure \"council can undertake no action which is not in conformity with the provisions of the plan.\" Amendments to the plan are possible, but only after \"a required process of public consultation.\" The new OCP, the third since 1985, reflects the increasing public concern with environmental issues. A comprehensive geotechnical report pinpoints sensitive areas within the town and includes recommendations for the protection of streams, foreshore, parkland and ecologically sensitive areas. Although the OCP committee avoided a narrow labelling of the town as a retirement centre or a suburban residential community, it emphasized the quiet rural nature of the area and recommended a blueprint for growth which would protect these qualities, rather than encourage heavy industrial development. The 1986 census pegged Gibsons' population at 2674, but current estimates show the present figure is around 4300, a 12.2 percent per year increase in the last five years. This is up considerably from the steady five percent increase in earlier years. The committee projected future population at 15,000 but did not speculate when this figure would be reached. Most of the newcomers are in the over-55 age group, with the next largest group between the ages bf 25 and 34. The OCP recommends that the town encourage this mix of age and economic groups and move towards higher density housing, continuing the recent trend of multi-family housing units. The plan also recommends encouraging increased affordable rental housing for seniors, single parents and young people. Although the inclusion of economic development strategy is not common for an OCP, the committee incorporated a modified version of an economic strategy into the new plan. The plan was formulated by the town's Economic Development Strategy Plan Committee in TURN TO PAGE 2 Pender residents protest K-12 In an obvious display of concern, about 40 Pender Harbour parents and residents packed into the school board meeting held Nov, 26 to register their disapproval of a recent decision to amalgamate the elementary and secondary schools into one K-12 facility in Pender Harbour. Speaking on behalf of the group, Maggi Jacks made a presentation to trustees, outlining community objections to the K-12 decision and asking that the motion supporting the amalgamated school facility be overturned. Jacks made her presentation following news last week that a request for $3 million in funding for a K-12 school had been sent to Victoria by Secretary-Treasurer Tim Anderson on July 19 - four months before a public vote was held on the issue. In the presentation, Jacks stated that the decisions of both the Future Facilities Committee and the trustees to approve the amalgamated school, despite opposition from parents, indicated the board had not been dealing in good faith with the community. Jacks also pointed to the irregularities in procedure - whereby approval of a K-12 facility was actively encouraged by the Superin- tendant and Secretary-Treasurer, and a proposal for K-12 funding was sought before trustees voted on the motion - as representing a \"breach of trust\" with the people of Pender Harbour.

Transition house concerns voiced Joel Johnstone photo Several community agencies agree that alchohol and drug addictions are a growing problem on the Sunshine Coast. But not everybody agrees with the details of a recent plan put forward to open an alcohol and drug recovery house in the area. Keith McNicol and George Cuthbertaon, the two originators of the recovery house plan, want to open a men's \"transition house\" in Port Mellon which would provide a safe residential setting where ex- addicts could receive support and \"re-learn the skills they need for everyday living,\" says Cuthbenson. Right now, there is no long-term residential help for recovering alcohol and drug addicts en the Coaat, die men lay. In order to get it people must travel to halfway houaes in the Lower Mainland.

The program, modelled on the Inner Vision recovery houee in the Lower Mainland, would involve a three to six- month slay, die men say, during which time residents would participate in 12-s\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDep group therapy pragma Uke the one used by Alco- boUcs Anonymous.

Nobody with pending criminsl charges would be sccepted into the recovery house. But not everybody is happy about the plan for the \"transition house\" in Port Mellon. In die last week, a group of approximately 15 residents in the area have voiced their opposition to the plan. Janet Calder, a spokesperson for the group, said there is concern the facility would not be properly licensed, and that residents of die house would not be adequately supervised in the isolated area, espe-. daily given the lack of recreational facilities. \"Where are they going to go - for walks?\" asked Kay Belanger, another area resident Concern has also been expressed at the number of possible transition house residents. \"If it wss just six or seven people, we'd have no objection,\" said Belanger. The community group said they were calling on governments at both the provincial and regional level, including the Sunshine Coast' Regional District to provide some guidelines for the facility. According to Steve Olmstead of the Regional District the zoning on die property currently allows for a transition house ss a permitted use of die premises, but in order to operate, the society wishing to open the recovery house would need proper licensing snd approval from the board. \"Beings permitted use doesn't nee- eassrily mean it's a go-ahead,\" he commented. Without the licensing, up to 15 people can live in the triplex, al long as die three living units ate run independently, said Olmstead. TURN TO PAGE 2 Coast News, December 2,1991 Gibsons' Official Community Plan FROM PAGE 1 the late 80s. The new strategy advocates the encouragement of a mixture of service and tourist- oriented businesses with less emphasis on industrial development It recommends high density housing units be encouraged around the commercial cores of upper and lower Gibsons, with careful planning to ensure maximum benefits from the town's spectscular views, and a network of green spsces snd cycling and pedestrian paths throughout the community. The plan foresees the extension of the present seswalk to the town's northern boundary (and beyond, with the cooperation of the regional district). The plan also addresses the issue of improved traffic flow snd increased parking facilities, particularly in lower Gibsons. If a future fast ferry materializes, a docking site at the north end of town adjacent to the Chekwelp Indian Reserve is suggested. A new sewage treatment plant is considered essential \"as the environmental and economic well-being of the town depends on it\" A future recreation centre is suggested next to the swimming pool, and there is a recommendation that land be set aside for s golf course and RV park and that consideration should be given to relocating the elementary school away from high traffic areas. The plan also looks at the future need for expanded health care facilities and municipal administration buildings and the preservation of heritage sites. The geotechnical report by Thurber Engineering recommended a minimum shoreline horizontal setback of 15 metres, increasing to 30 metres in sensi- Although the section on Gospel Rock was not available at last week's meeting, the geotechnical report contains several recommendations for the preservation of sections of the area. It notes that \"preservation of the Gospel Rock area and the development of nearby areas are not necessarily mutually exclusive, provided such development would not slienste or degrade the environmental, historic and cultural values that give the Gospel Rock area its special status in the community.\" The OCP now goes to the Regional District for comment and following that a date will be set for a public hearing, probably early in January. The 100-page document wih accompanying maps is now available for study at the town hall. Both Mayor Eric Small and Buchan strongly urged members of the public to familiarize themselves with the plan and be prepared to take part in the public hearing. \"This plan, more than any previous one, will shape the Gibsons of the future,\" ssid Buchan. He said the plan was still a long way from the final draft and it was important for the public to understand the plan and make their wishes known now. Although the new plan builds on previous ones which emphasized the small-town nature of Gibsons, the population could grow to four times what it is now, with a density of 20 people per acre. He said substituting high-density housing for industrial development, though more in keeping wih the small town ambience, would mean an increased need for ser- Impasse over water sharing Lee (top) and Leigh take a peek to see who the next contributor to Pasttimes Elves Club Depot will be.

Joel Johnstone photo A letter protesting the integration of the SCRD and Gibsons water supplies was supported by Director Jim Gurney at the Nov. 27 SCRD meeting, while evoking protest from Gibsons Mayor Eric Small. In the letter, the Area E Electors' Association (Gurney's constituents) points to an agreement made eight years sgo between the SCRD and Coast residents in which the SCRD vowed not to raise water rates for 10 years as part of a \"10 Year Plan\", in return for an agreed-upon water rate \"up front\" to help finance the SCRD's water system. The letter implied that agreement would be broken if Gibsons integrates into the SCRD water system. Gurney said the water rate agreement was considered a \"sacred trust\" by many in his district and ssid the SCRD should stick to it. \"We've done that to date,\" Gurney noted, \"and they have every right to expect us to keep doing it\" Eric Small said Gibsons didn't want the '10 Year Plan' to be interrupted in any way and that the Town intended to pay its full portion of integration. \"We're not coming to the Regional District hat-in-hand looking for subsidies for water,\" Small said. \"We intend to pay our full way.\" The Area E electors' letter also expressed concerns for the quality and quantity of their water following integration. Citing projected Area E development and worries about the deteriorating quality of SCRD water, the letter claimed K Port Mellon residents: No Transition house FROM PAGE 1 If kitchen facilities are shared by the three units, s maximum of five residents is allowed. Bob Westin, of the Coast Garibaldi Health Unit said that based on his information, the men's transition house would not require licensing under the Community Care Act because no officially recognized plan of \"treatment\" or counselling would be conducted in the recovery house. He said his understanding was the transition house would be modelled on similar drug snd alcohol recovery houses in New Westminster and Coquitlam, which are not officially licensed. \"We feel this precedent has been set\" he ssid. Westin added, however, that he had not determined whether the facility would require licensing under the Guaranteed Annual Income for Need (GAIN) Act. Under the GAIN Act any facility with 15 or more people who are receiving social assistance must be approved by the Adult Care Facilities Licensing Board. \"There are still some items that require further clarification,\" he said. Currently, counselling is provided to people with drug and alcohol problems on the Coast by the Drug and Alcohol Action Centie, but, there is no residential program. 'ihe addition of Gibsons to the system would \"throw (the SCRD's water system) over the edge to s Coast-wide 'boil water'order.\" Gurney, who at the last meeting made a notice of motion to begin the integration process, sympathized with his electorate, saying, \"These are people who, a number of years ago, suffered s shortage of water,\" and because of that they have a \" hard time getting used to the idea that there is a surplus. \"And really, Ihere isn't s surplus,\" Gurney added. \"There is a comfortable supply snd (water shortage) is s justified apprehension on their part.\" That's blackmail, out and out blackmail' Small disagreed with Gurney's assessment of water quantity. He cited a recent engineering report placing the quantity of water on the Coast as \"enough for 200,000 people.\" \"What we should really be talking about,\"Small said, \"is how we can utilize that water.\" The final paragraphs of the Area E Electors' Association letter tied water integration to controls on Gibsons' future growth, particularly over the Town's further expansion into AreaE. \"An endless supply of water to Gibsons will destroy our community through 'urban creep',\" read the letter. \"...Only locked-in political borders will allay these fears.\" Gurney called boundary controls on Gibsons \"key\" in the minds of his electorate. He agreed with his electorate association that integrating Gibsons into the water system would fuel the Town's \"urban creep\". Small called the demand for control of Gibsons' expansion \"out and out blackmail\". \"I don't see why there is even an effort to tie boundary extensions to water,\" Small said. \"...These are two entirely separate issues...it's an attempt^ by an area outside of Gibsons to try to control (the Town's) growth and destiny and it's something that can't be tolerated at this board.\" Later in the meeting, Gurney, pointing to what he called an \"impasse\" over personality on the water integration issue, ssked Chairman Connor to replace him as the overseer of the proposed project. Connor said she would consider his request. Application Form For .\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD.

Doug Moffatt, the co-ordinator of the Sunshine Coast Lifeline Project, said the $5,000 donation from Centra Gas, which sponsored the Up With People musical tour, is terrific news for Lifeline. \"The Lifeline Project is designed to provide people, who have life-threatening health problems, with a fast way of communicating with a hospital,\" said Moffatt. He said many people can't afford the electronic Lifeline devices which enable a sufferer in crisis to speak to a hospital. \"Of the 17 installed to date about half aren't paid for so you can see how welcome the donation is,\" he said. Leonard Lavender, Centra's district supervisor in SecheH, said Centra sponsored the Up With People tour to thank communities for supporting Centra's activities, to increase awareness of the benefits of natural gas and, through charitable donations, to leave lasting benefits in the communities. \"It's our way of saying thanks to the people of Sechelt,\" he said. K-12 protest from Pender FROM PAGE 1 tion against the K-12 facility signed by over 800 Pender Harbour residents, Jacks asked that a decision to :revefse the K-12 motion be made by trustees at the next board meeting on Dec. 10. Jacks said she hoped the board would not build a school \"where the foundation would be built on the animosity of its community. \"A vast majority of the community strongly opposes and will not accept a K-12 facility in Pender Harbour,\" she said. \"The people will not give up until the school board's decision is overturned and replaced by a community supported option.\" Commenting after the meeting, School Board Chairman Maureen Clayton said the proposal for capital facilities funding had been submitted July 19, before the K-12 vote, in order to meet Ministry of Education guidelines and ensure projects decided on by the board would not have to wait a year for funding. She added, however, that she had hot been aware the funding was sought specifically for an amalgamated facility. \"I think there was a misunderstanding on my part,\" said Clayton. \"I didn't realize the submission was for a K-12 option. So I have to review the process and see what happened there.\" Clayton said she thought the renovation and expansion funds applied for could be used for either renovations to the existing elementary school or an amalgamated facility, depending on the school board decision. According to minutes of the school board meeting held June 25, a motion was passed to request capital funding for \"additions and necessary renovations\" to Madeira Park Elementary School. But Secretary-Treasurer Tim Anderson said the proposal sent to Victoria specified a K-12 facility. Clayton said the board would now be considering the Pender Harbour petition. \"In my view, yqu can't ignore 800 signatures,\" she said. If the school board should decide to rethink the Oct. 22 decision to amalgamate the schools, a two-thirds majority of the trustees would be required to pass a motion calling for reconsideration of the K- 12 decision. Clayton warned, however, that funding sources in the Min istry of Education would not look favourably on \"waffling\" by the trustees. \"The secretary- treasurer has always warned us that they, must have a clear direction from a board before they consider capital expenditure,\" she said. Secretary-Treasurer Tim Anderson said if the school board decided to reverse its decision, the issue of whether funds would get delayed would likely depend on whether the proposal had reached the Treasury Board. Meanwhile, Jacks said Pender Harbour residents are prepared to take the issue to Victoria if the board refuses to reconsider the K-12 decision. She said the group of concerned parents has already enlisted the support of Liberal leader and local MLA Gordon Wilson, Liberal education critic Doug Symons, and former NDP candidate Howard White, and were waiting for a response from the office of Education Minister Anita Hagen.

The brief euphoria which saw us celebrate the end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Communist empire has been replaced with a chilling view of what can happen when even the most misguided entity begins to come apart. Especially are the events in the embattled Balkans disconcerting for those ethnic groups who seek to establish their own territories for this or that historic or imagined reasons. Need it be pointed out that Canada has a sepa- ratiste problem of its own. The forces of intense nationalism in Quebec may be learning a few lessons as they watch the tortured thrashings of the break-up of the Yugoslavian federation. It has already been asserted that if Quebec breaks away from Canada the Indians of Northern Quebec have every intention of breaking away from Quebec. This pattern of embattled splinters breaking away from embattled splinters is in part the tragedy of the Croats and the Serbs and the possible fate of all the other republics of the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. In every republic there are minorities, many nursing ancient grievances, waiting to break away in turn. In what was Yugoslavia we see what may be a glimpse of a terrible future. Instead of a steady and forward movement away from a world of wars, a movement down to a dark night of anarchy and tribal hatreds where in the words of one civilized and non-melodramatic observer, the people will 'rather kill than eat' as has seemed to be the case between the Serbs and the Croats of late. Of course, the Serbs and the Croats are in part refight- ing the Second World War, where the ascendant Croats were part of the Nazi Empire and behaved towards their neighbours with all of the Nazi inhuman arrogance. ; But more than this, there is the millenia-old clash between the followers of the Greek Orthodox Church, the Serbs, and the Roman Catholic Church, the Croats. And isn't it ironic how often the most terrible and inhuman clashes take place between peoples who have a different view of how the Supreme Being should be worshipped. Throughout the world there lies fertile soil for ancient hatreds and the shedding of blood. If loving is stronger than not-loving as some would have us believe, the advantage is often so slim as to be indiscernible. ; We stand as ever on the narrow ridge between evolution and backsliding. Too many great and brilliant and rich civilizations have disappeared into the mists of time heretofore for us to doubt the possibility of the world we have known falling back into a dreadful barbarism of warring pieties and the hunger for conquest or revenge.

Be careful, Mike. letters Better planning needed for storms After two bad storms, lost power and cable, terrible overtime costs of repair, replacement of services, electronic damage, etc., why are our planners not seeing the problem in respect to getting on with proper clearance around and along these lines'? Hydro should have 100 foot clearance rights on these areas. Private property and other types of land should be cleared and maintained like any other areas in this province. I hope that Hydro, the Regional District and the town of Gibsons will get together with professional planners frwn Vancouver and get this coastal community back on a safe resi-. denrial footing. Trees are wonderful but they art not properly maintained by the owners in these communi-; ties. BARBLINCEZ Museum article needs correction ( Thank you so much for' printing the information on the Elphinstone Pioneer Museum's Annual General Meeling. There was one small correction I'd like to make. Because Vivian Chamberlin has contributed so much to the community through her efforts at the museum, she was presented with a certificate of appreciation from the society. Norah Hill certainly deserved one, but was the presenter, rather than the receiver, of one this year. Also, in your article about the sign that Anna Hanson is carving for the museum; the fact that the Sunshine Coast Regional District board will also be asked to the dedication ceremony for the unveiling was inadvertently left out They and the Town of Gibsons each donated 50 percent of the coat for the signage and we would Uke to show our appreciation to both of these bodies. It's another case of co-operation between them to serve the entire population of the Coast.

It's Tuesday morning, around 9 o'clock and I just read a wonderfully insightful article about Gordon Wilson on the front page of the Coast News. I know now that this personable politician who wears slippers around the house once hiked to the summit of Kilimanjaro; that he plays piano, is trained in theatre and used to raise chickens. In fact, there's only one burning question left...who wrote the article? ANONYMOUSLY CURIOUS (MAGGIE MONDAY) Roberts Creek Editor's Note: Jane Seyd's byline was accidentia left off 'Politics and the Art of Chainsaw Maintenance'last week. Concerns about new gas pipeline There are a number of people in Roberts Creek who have a major concern about the gas pipeline coming through our community: only the high pressure line (white pipe) is being laid. The low pressure line (yellow pipe), which is the distribution line, is not being laid in Roberts Creek. This means Roberts Creek is not slated for hookup as Gibsons and Sechelt are. We have been given three different responses from three different officials upon enquiring about this: 1) Roberts Creek will get gas in Phase 2 (dig up the same trench and put the low pressure line down) in a year or two; 2) residential hookup is possible off the high pressure line, just We welcome letters to the editor on matters of public interest. However, we reserve the right to edit submissions for brevity, clarity and legality. Please mail your letters to: Tht Editor Sunshine Coast News Box 68 SecheH, B.C.

We want the work on the Roberts Creek portion of the gasline stopped until this matter is sorted out! lt is a misuse of taxpayers' money to dig the same line twice instead of once and it is a nuisance to put up wih traffic disruption twice. Residents can call Len Lavender at 885-6117 or the heads of Centra Gas in Victoria: Bill Burton, Norm Didur, or Jack Kraet at 380-3300 or fax: 380-3320 to express their concern. CAROLANN GLOVER Whose standards are appropriate? I don't mean for this to sound like a trashy letter but I refuse (or refuse) not to express my opinion. I've been adhering to all the standards by which our garbage is being accepted by the district. The amount of cans, the size of the cans, and that it will not be picked up by the trash collectors if it isn't in a can but in a bag. 1 work hard enough to recycle everything except I end up still with one can of garbage per week. 1 put the can at the end of the driveway and when 1 get home, it's never where I left it I've found it in the ditch with the lid flung like a frisbee many feet away. Yes, always just tossed away. If we residents of the Coast are subject to all the district's standards, why then aren't the garbage men given any standards? Once, just once, I would like my garbage can put back in one piece, rather than just trashing it. SHERRIPAYNE Candlelight vigil to mark massacre anniversary \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDMMM lt|d ; With candles and white carnations, it will be a time for ren ranee and reflection this Friday Evening as the Sunshine Coast Women's Transition House joins groups across the country to com- itemorale the second anniversary of what has tfceome known as the \"Montreal Massacre\". ; In that event, 14 women were killed by a man wielding a semi-automatic rifle who opened fire in L;'Ecole Polytechnique engineering school. ; Since then, the events of Dec 6 have come to symbolize the increasing threats and incidents of violence faced by women across the country. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD In October of this year, federal MPs unanimously approved a bill declaring Dec. 6 a national day of remembrance and action on violence against women. I On the Sunshine Coast, candlelight vigils will begin at S p.m. at both the Royal Canadian Legion Cenotaph in Sechelt and at Pioneer Park in Gib- sins. \"First mourn. Then work for change\" is the tUeme of the vigil. Everyone is invited to attend. '. During the past year, the Sunshine Coast December 6 now symbolizes threats, violence Women's Transition House handled 429 crisis calls and provided temporary shelter for 75 families of women and their children. Stays at the transition house varied from an afternoon to a couple of months. The reasons women contacted the transition house also varied widely, says Jullin, a counsellor and spokeswoman for the centre. Examples might range from a single mother who needed emotional \"time out\" to a woman who was baiily battered and needed a safe place where her husband or boyfriend couldn't find her. Just what constitutes \"abuse\" is often difficult to define, says Jullin. \"There's so much of it in our society.\" Abuse can be physical, sexual or emotional, and can involve anything from punching and hair pulling to emotional intimidation and deliberately isolating a person from family and friends. Most of the women who contact Transition House are being abused by men, says Jullin, although that isn't always the case Most of the time the abuser is either a husband, ex-husband, boyfriend or ex-boyfriend. In some cases, men also call Transition House : they are worried about female friends, or : they realize they are becoming potentially abusive, says Jullin. Calls from both men and women can remain anonymous. Transition House itself, the location of which is kept secret, has 12 beds for women, funded by the Ministry of Housing and Social Services. Counsellors at the centre offer support for the women. They may also give advice and make referrals to other local support groups and agencies if appropriate. Final decisions, however, are left up to each woman. \"Whether she decides to go bade to her husband or boyfriend, or go out on her own, that's op to her,\" says Jullin. Moat problems and patterns of abuse are fairly universal, says Jullin. Sometimes, however, the rural nature of the Sunshine Coast can create special problems for women here, \"It's often much more difficult for women here to get help than it is m the city,\" says Jullin, because of the combination of geographical isolation and lack of transportation. \"A woman can be physically stuck here because she literally can't leave.\" Transition House has a 24-hour phone service for women needing help on the Sunshine Coast. To women concerned about abusive relationships, who need either help or information, Jullin says, We re here, we do exist, and we would certainly welcome their calls.\" The vigil on Friday is being put on to show concern for increasing levels of violence in soci- ety; es\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD2,ally violence direc,\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDl against women. in 1990,234 women were murdered in Canada.

Wilson said the house was to shelter 27 men, a number greater than the residents of the area. \"I'm concerned that very little consultation has been done with the area's residents,\" Wilson said. SCRD Chairman Peggy Connor pointed out that the building selected for the transition house was a triplex and provincial legislation prohibited its occupation by more than IS unrelated people. Wilson responded that there was no way to control the number of TERMINAL Forest f*roducts Ltd. people in the house. \"We have no way, given ihe transient nature of the people using that facility,\" Wilson said, \"to know how many people (are using that facility) at any given time.\" According to Wilson, the transition house doesn't need a provincial license to operate because it doesn't provide treatment as such. Director Jim Gurney said that under Regional District by-laws, transition houses were permitted if they didn't require licenses, but said the Port Mellon area was not the place for one. Wilson echoed this thought, saying, \"This Regional District should take some action regarding this facility.\" He said he had concerns about the physical structure of the proposed site and recommended the provincial government be informed of those concerns as well as the Coast Garibaldi Health Unit, the SCRD building inspector and the fire department. \" Gibsons Mayor Eric Small agreed the Pott Mellon area was not the place for the transition house but said he recognized the value of service provided by such a facility. \"1 think there is a need for this kind of facility (on the Coast),\" said Small, \"and if it does result in people getting rehabilitated, I have a difficulty in making it almost impossible for them to locate somewhere.\" Addiction not just big-city problem; Sunshine Coast also has difficulties LOG BUYING STATION 886-7033 CONTRACTOR / BUILDER KITCHEN CABINET PRICING FROM MERIT KITCHENS You are invited to bring your plans or measurements from current or upcoming projects and receive on- the-spot Kitchen Cabinet Contractor / Builder pricing.

Alcohol and drug addiction isn't just a big city problem. In fact, there are growing numbers of people with a substance abuse or addiction problem right here on the Coast. Just ask Keith McNicol or George Cuthbenson. They know, because they've been there. McNicol, who is a \"recovering addict\" and now lives on the Coast, says he grew up with street values in Vancouver, which included learning how to drink at a young age. From his first experiences with alcohol at around age 12, McNicol says, \"I learned early that alcohol made me feel good and it took away my problems temporarily.\" Soon, his addiction to alcohol led to other drugs, which McNicol says were always readily available. Eventually, he became addicted to heroin. Despite his addiction, McNicol says he held down a regular job as a shop steward for thirteen years, which in some ways gave him the sense that his life was still functioning normally. \"I never knew my life was unmanageable,\" he says. \"I always felt I was a survivor. You did whatever you had to do.\" In maiiy cases, that m'tfb.^ed both violence and robber^ which landed him in riunRWus jailhouses over his years as an addict. \"I have a long criminal record,\" says McNicol, \"and it all had to do with alcohol and e\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD It also led to several unsuccessful suicide attempts.

Once here, however, he found the drugs were still available and he was still addicted. Two years ago, however, he saw a sign for the Drug and- Alcohol Action Centre in Sechelt, and decided to make the effort to find it. \"That was the beginning of my recovery, when I wandered through those doors,\" he says. Since then, McNicol has been through the Last Door recovery house program in New Westminster, which he says was \"a whole new experience of learning how to feel again.\" \"1 had said for so many yeats '1 don't care', that I didn't know how to care. 1 was a very confused and violent person,\" says McNicol. At the recovery house people showed support for him without strings attached for the first time ever, he says. \"This was all very foreign to Now that he's been \"clean\" for two years, more recently McNicol has also turned to helping other addicts, with both the local Breakaway program for teenagers and the Action Centre's \"Newly Clean and Sober\" group. He's also taken a course in frontline training for residential care settings. Asked about his motivation, McNicol comments, \"It's important to my recovery to give back what's been so freely given to me.\" Similar themes are echoed by George Cuthbenson, who came to the Coast 14 years ago, and worked as a log scaler for many years. In Cuthbertson's case, the drug of choice was more conventional - alcohol. \"My doctor told me six yeats ago I was an alcoholic,\" he says, \"but he was only my doctor. My life still appeared to be functioning.\" Cuthbertson says that like many addicts, he wouldn't admit to having a problem. \"Not until my life fell apart,\" he says. The turning point came, says Cuthbertson, when his older sis- Elphinstone Secondary -News\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD QOCOUGARSI Out Sr. Boys' Basketball team defeated Cariboo Hill Secondary, Burnaby, last Tuesday, 58-57.

The need for this kind of facility on the Coast Is increasing, the men say. Jane Seyd photo. ter died of alcohol-related complications. At Uie same time, he was personally faced with charges of both impaired driving and wife battering. He realized then, he says, that he needed help badly, and found the start at the local Drug and Alcohol Action Centre. Like McNicol, Cuthbertson also eventually made his way to a recovery house on the Lower Mainland. \"I'm incredibly lucky. I had only one problem,\" he says. \"Nowadays I doubt there's anybody coming in who doesn't have a multiple addiction.\" Both men say that people who believe there's no problem on the Coast are fooling themselves. \"1 know there's a problem on this coast because I've bought many drugs here in the past,\" says McNicol. Figures from a report conducted by the Drug and Alcohol Action Centre bear out their comments. In 1990, 145 people sought help at the centie, while 77 people sought help in the fust half of 1991. And these are only the addicts who have recognized their problem and are trying lo do something aboul it. Two-thirds of the people seeking help are men, who are in need of further services on the Sunshine Coast, the report says. \"Most of Ihem are going to be ordinary men in desperate need of help,\" says Cuthbertson. The profile of a \"typical\" addict might be \"your brother. Your father. Your uncle. The man next door,\" says Cuthbenson. \"That's who we are.\" k tfwtk't la* 5**t><\"\ aUustfclona b) Outing a long weekend- c) WW you've had the rugs cleaned. Wflf ^^KY**f * IsfeWl _ **** H new.

Located in the old 'goon saloon' directly above the Delifish Cafe in downtown Roberts Creek, Eclectica has created an uncluttered, bright space punctuated with the most unusual and delightful papier mache an creations. The gooseneck floor lamp that's been transformed with creative vision and papier mache into a stork is definitely very special. Another favourite is the round, intricately painted tin with a papier mache man reading, drinking coffee, and using the tin as a table. The tin opens to store treasures inside. llie decor of Eclectica includes antique wood accents, with large multi-paned windows facing all four directions, each wilh a different view of Roberts Creek. Micheline Larose and Georges Gamache are the dynamic duo who have started the gallery and contributed much of their own art. Other artists are also on display. Hours are Tuesday through Sundays, 10 am to 5 pm. Larose and Gamache have earned a nationwide reputation with their 10 years work in papier mache. Look for the grand opening in February around the time of Mardi Gras.

Well, last Friday, November 22, the Roberts Creek Beavers had their first Camp In A Box sleepover. The theme was transportation and all the boxes were magically transformed into care, boats, campers and planes. The boys and their parents had great fun with all the activities, which included building matchbox care, racing them, and pretending to be an old Ford car. The evening ended with a lively singsong and all too soon the happy campers were tucked into their boxes for the night. Morning soon arrived and everyone bundled up warmly and trudged outside for a hike with a breakfast in tow. All the Beavers, including our guest Beaver from Madeira Park, Kenny Daniels, agreed that, YES, we must have another Camp In A Box soon.

The Roberts Creek group very kindly agreed to take over on that date and the Halfmoon Bay group will be on duty on December 14. CAROL SINGERS To date 1 have not received any information on this, but am quite sure the Halfmoon Bay Fire Department will be taking a group of kids on board the fire truck and driving throughout the neighbourhood to sing carols for the pleasure of all. Maybe later I will receive time and date of this always enjoyable event. SEAWEED I hope you all took advantage of the stormy seas of recent days to collect a load of seaweed for your garden. Makes great fertilizer and the price is right. I noticed quite a bit of storm damage along Redrooffs, including the fence along the front of the Paterson house which was almost totally blown away by the wind. Makes for lots of extra repair work.

Money for UNICEF Roberts Creek parents and students have proved to be a most considerate community. During October, the students spent some time considering the children of developing nations.

The j youngest child in each family of the school community took home the traditional orange UNICEF box and collected money for the annual fundraising drive. The response was overwhelming. The fast raised over $800 and the UNICEF collection boxes raised over $700, more than previous years. kyJqmMy NEW OFFICERS FOR BRANCH 69 The officers selected for 1992 of Branch #69 are as follows: president, Len Herder, 1st vice-president, Stan Johnson; 2nd vice-president, Tom Bitting; secretary, Barbara Flanke; treasurer, Dorothy Skog and treasurer of the building committee, Viv Pallot.

That funky little store sure has helped us out a lot, the way little ones go through clothes. I'd like to thank Doris for all the time she has put into making the Thrift Store happen. It was so beautiful the other day when the weather lifted. Uriah and I played in the school yard, then went to the school library. There's a lot more books now and new bookshelves, thanks to one vety busy carpenter.

There's a Community Club general meeting on Wednesday, December 11 at 7:30 pm at the hall. Concerns are new heat for the harbour watch hall and school, and an important agenda you'll all ful out about at the meeting. See you there. The recycling meeting was attended by 17 people, Friday night. It was decided that we'll work together w h C.R.I.P. to start up a mini-depot somewhere in Egmont. ' The depot will, of course, need some volunteer w rk, but some type of funding from some local businesses would be i help. Since we're all part of the big chain, the businesses sell us all ie goods that need recycling, and so forth.

Pender Harbour music society The second annual Pender Harbour Christmas Showcase will be held on December 10 at 7 pm in the Pender Harbour auditorium. Performances for everyone to enjoy will be put on by the Pender Harbour High School Student Band, Madeira Park Elementary School Choir, our local community choir and many more. Those who attended the Jazz and Poetry Night on November 8 were delightfully entertained by the jazz trio made up of Les Fowler, Merv Charbonneau and special guest singer, Paul Beckett. John Marion also performed a couple of his songs. The society would like to thank a group of very talented poets: Roxanne Gregory, Melissa Charbonneau, John Pass, Nathan Gough (read by Diane) and Betty Scott. Finally, thanks go out to Mike Mclnerney for organizing this event and to Beth Coleman for gracefully stepping in as MC. The community club regrets After years of tradition, the Fishermen's Homecoming Dance has been cancelled this year due to lack of volunteers to organize this event. Hopefully next year this function will continue if the club gets some help from the public. Christmas trees Here's a great environmentally friendly idea.

Yes, we exist and have been carrying on (quietly) with a number of interviews and fact-finding projects to get the ball rolling to establish a recycling depot in the Pender Harbour area. After a series of ups and downs, a GRIP (Garbage Recycling In Pender) committee of three pulled themselves together, interviewed a number of people in the Harbour area and discussed possible recycling efforts that could be implemented in the near future. The committee met with positive results from nearly all parties and as of mid-November has three important announcements to make to the community. First, the GRIP crew put together a small table at the November 2 swap meet at the Community Hall in Madeira Park. Through the sale of plants, recycled Christmas paper, second-hand culverts, baked goods and a beautiful stained glass candle holder, which was raffled off, the GRIP group made roughly $275! This is fantastic and could not have been done without the help of June Malaka, Sage Wright, Michael Sargent, Edith Daly, Helen Christian, Linda Goble, Jay Hamburger and Val Ver- ralL.just to name a few of the numerous folk who have come to the aid of their local recycling group's efforts. In particular Ms. Malaka's donation of the beautiful glass candle holder (which she made) was indeed most helpful in getting the fund drive underway...and she deserves a big thanks! The second announcement is that an annual general meeting of the recycling group was held November 27 at the Pender Harbour High School. The factfinding committee's report was presented and plans of action were also discussed. The third announcement is that the fact-finding crew of GRIP has come up with what looks like a possible and quite fine, convenient recycling depot site. Richard, Joe and Ken of Mountain View PetroCan Service station have offered some space on their site to set up bins when we want to start collecting/taking our recyclables to market. The PetroCan crew deserves a tip of the hat from the community for taking an interest and caring. But the issue of possibly setting up the recycling bins at the present dump site, with an attendant (hopefully), is a serious consideration also as the area goes through a process of change with the present Klein- dale/Garden Bay landfill garbage site. The regional board would like to see the site turned into a transfer station (garbage being shipped to the Sechelt landfill/dump site) as certain environmental hazards have been noted by regional board director Jim Gurney. A move towards improvement/change with the Area A dump scene is close at hand, this coming winter as word has it. So there are some important decisions for the community to think about. The issue of garbage recycling in our community won't go away and needs to be addressed as soon as possible. Final words before closing: GRIP held a survey a number of months ago concerning garbage disposal/recycling within our region. Out of 184 concerned folk who answered questions about recycling in Pender Harbour, 183 people were in favour of recycling here. Currently 85.3 per cent of them surveyed said they recycle and many mentioned they would like the depot site to be in Madeira Park (although this is not possible at present). :xtj EXTRA/ EXTRA.' Recycling, it's as easy as that.

Logie unveils works Back in the late 1970s, aitisl Patricia Logie first became interested in painting portraits of Native people when she hired several Native students from UBC to sit as models for her. \"These students were wonderful to paint,'' she said. \"Their high cheekbones and strong features were of great interest to me as a painter, and their personalities, inner strength and determination added more colour to the paintings.\" When she started thinking about other depictions of First People, however, Logie realized most illustrations she knew were either of warrior figures or 'underprivileged, woebegone figures of a dying race.' \"Where were the Native people 1 knew? Nowhere in my search could I find the people of this generation who are working and striving to help the image of their people through involvement in education, in the artistic community, in politics, in business, in law, and in the general struggle to keep the Indian culture alive and of consequence.\" Logie decided then to try to depict in her own paintings the impressive achievements of a large but sometimes unknown group of First Nations people. Her book, Chronicles of Pride, is a collection of 31 portraits of Native people wfio have made significant contributions to our society. Her powerful yet sensitive paintings portray well-known natives such as artist Daphne Odjig, actress Margo Kane, Judge Alfred Scow, Senator Len Marchand, businesswoman Blanche Macdonald and Chief Simon Baker. Lesser knowin subjects are teacher Yvlotwe Dunlop, United Church ministet John Williams, social worker Glen Newman, politician George Manuel and others whose lives are enriching the fabric of contemporaryrsociety. Logie, who has been an established portrait painter for the last 30 years, recently moved to the ^unshine Coast. , She will be exhibiting some of her paintings and signing hex, books at the Shadow Baux Gallery in Sechelt on December 7 and 8 from Ham to 4pm.

Powder Blues: Doin' it right in the best seats in town. by Stuart lurtwMt Sechelt's Raven's Cry Theatre rocked November 23 as the Powder Blues played their own brand of upbeat blues to an almost sold-out crowd of enthusiastic fans. The Powder Blues, a bar band that has managed to make good with original hits and by maniacally touring North America, proved to those gathered at the Raven's Cry why they deserve the appreciation of their fans and hold the respect of their peers. The selections played were an anthology of hits from the past 14 years of the band's existence, including such greats as Thirsty Ears and Doin* It Right on the Wrong Side of Town. They even rendered a couple of requests called out from the audience. The band played with all the verve and professionalism people have come to expect from the Powder Blues and a style which included duelling saxophones, moody guitar riffs, the occasional drum solo and raucous keyboard playing, while the bass guitar kept it all in time. Unfortunately, there was a down side to the evening and it involved1 the location of the show rather than any discrepancies on the part of the band. The Powder Blues is a bar band, and their music belongs in smokey dives and dance halls where the beer flows freely and no one is asked to remain seated. The Raven's Cry is no such place. The Raven's Cry is a beautiful theatre, the classiest on the Coast. The seating is wonderfully comfortable and the decor is tasteful and not overstated; the atmosphere would be relaxing for a crowd gathered to watch a movie or an arts council show, but not to witness the Powder Blues. By their very nature, the band demands audience participation and interaction; they feed off the energy of the audience and get progressively better as their fans pick up speed. At the Raven's Cry last week the audience was reluctant to participate. No beer was served, no smoking was allowed, and there was no room to dance. Half-hearted whistles were heard and there was respectful applause after every song, but the atmosphere just wasn't there. The band knew it and the crowd felt it. It didn't stop them from giving a fine performance, but the show probably would have been more enjoyable had it been held at the Roberts Creek Community Hall or the Indian Band Hall - anywhere a crowd can get up and move.

Her paintings are also part of the collections of Sherbrook Art Museum, Chevron Oil Company, and private and corporate collections throughout Canada and,the United States. \"I aim to portray the joy of life at home with my family,\" says Butchart. \"My immediate surroundings are my inspiration and subject matter.

A multi-award winning film, this has been called one of the best films ever from Spain. A powerful and poignant story about Spain's spiritual state after the Franco rebellion, 'Spirit of the Beehive' reveals the world of tiny Ana Torrent, whose father keeps bees, and whose family is all affected by the war in varied and personal ways.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY With love from your siblings & their spouses & their kids & Mom & Riley Katherine Denham displays some of the graceful form she will bring to her new appointment as an instructor with the Coast Academy of Dance and Fine Arts. Coast Academy appoints teacher The Coast Academy of Dance and Fine Arts is pleased to announce the appointment of Miss Katherine Denham as Assistant Dance Teacher. Miss Denham, a local resident, complements the present Academy team with her outstanding talents and professional standards. Born in Toronto, Ontario in 1973, Katherine moved with her family to Sechelt at the age of four. It was at this time that she started gymnastics, and a year later began taking classes in ballet and jazz. An active, athletic individual, Katherine participated in fitness classes from the age of six and took contemporary dance classes in her teens. She began her dance training at the Coast Academy of Dance in September of 1990 and has progressed at a dramatic rate under the watchful eye of Academy Director Nicola Ruimy. With her natural dance abilities, and responsible, dedicated attitude, it soon became apparent that Katherine possessed the rare qualities and basic requirements of a good dance teacher. Since dien, Katherine has been working towards that goal, attending a teacher training program designed specifically for her by director Nicola Ruimy. Included in this private dance training are Royal Academy of Dancing syllabus studies, class planning and lessons in teaching theory, as well as instruction on how to work successfully with children of all ages. Observation of classes taught by other Academy instructors is also a weekly ritual for Katherine, who now teaches her own classes at least once a week. Her teaching success is evident on the faces of the young students when they ask when \"Miss Katherine is teaching again?\" The talent in the Denham family is not limited to Katherine though. Her younger sister, Alison, passed the Royal Academy of Dancing grade three ballet examination earlier this year, with honours. It is important that we are all aware of the considerable talent that is developing on the Sunshine Coast and that we continue to recognize, nurture and support it.

Prior to white settlement it was a berry-picking area for the Secheh band. Around 1890, Thomas William Roberts and several other men preempted. A son, Harry Roberts, became well known locally for his boat, the Chack Chack, and for columns he wrote under this pen name. Undoubtedly Roberts Creek's most illustrious resident was the author, Hubert Evans. The home he built for his family in the 1920's still stands on the beach south of the village centre. Hubert, a remarkably gracious and kindly man, is best known for his novel Mist on the River. Another novel, 0 Time in Your Flight, he authored when in his 90th year. He also took up poetry in these latter years and his collection Mostly Coast People bears tribute to his spirit and wiadom. Hubert Evans passed away in 1986 but he will not be forgotten. Brother Twelve In Roberts Creek A little-known story that Hubert once told me concerns the cultist Brother Twelve and his mistress, Madam Zee, who ran a notorious commune on the De Courcy Islands off Nanaimo. In 1933, Twelve's ill- used followers revolted, trooped into Nanaimo and laid a battery of criminal charges against their leader. Twelve and Zee, after trashing the commune, escaped by boat to Roberts Creek with 40 boxes of gold coins. There they were hidden for six months by a still-loyal follower, on a piece of property above the present highway. When the initial uproar had subsided, they sailed up coast to Prince Rupert, boarded a train and escaped to Europe by way of Montreal. They were never apprehended. Until ten months ago, an historic log cabin called the Homestead stood on the upper side of the highway at Wilson Creek. Once die home of an early pioneer, it served in latter years as a second-hand store. In late January of this year, it was dismantled by the Qibsons Landing Historical Society and stored in Roberts Creek to make way for a new mall. It will be reassembled elsewhere when a suitable site can be found. tfATWWSJ Fine Art rosters& Calendars \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD Images for all tastes and places. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDOVER 400 images in stock. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDOVER 3000 catalogued.

Our competitive edge will secure the prosperity we want for ourselves and our children. Prosperity thaf s measured not only by productivity but by better jobs, greater opportunities for young Canadians, support for health, social and senior citizen programs - and more. We can achieve it by investing in our own abilities and being a country that says... yes we can. Yes we can. Wve got the proof. Yes we can. Wve got the ability to build on our successes. We have a history of working in co-operation with others for world class achievements in peacekeeping, medicine and space exploration. Now, with business, labour, governments, academic and social groups working together, we can achieve prosperity through international competitiveness. But there is one mote critical factor Canada's ultimate potential depends on the commitment of individual Canadians. Yes we can. Wve got the people. A look at some of Canada's success stories proves it can be done... with real benefits for individuals, the communities they live in and for Canadian industry. Hundreds of Canadian companies are achieving remarkable international success. They're creating jobs, developing new skills and opportunities for thousands of Canadians and creating markets around the world for Canadian products. If s time now to unite around our greatest economic challenge yet- preparing for a prosperous future. As individuals, there's a lot we can do. Put yourself in the picture through further education or skills development programs. As parents, we can encourage our children to stay in school longer and start career planning activities sooner. As employers, we can think of training as a business investment and encourage a work environment where excellence and a commitment to learning are celebrated. Finally, as Canadians, we can become a positive part of the process through involvement in the consultations on our economic future. h ',\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD colour coordinated, fragrant Gift Baskets for men and women fancy soaps, bubble bath, shower soap, shaving cream, sponges VARIETY ffi, FOODS The BIGGEST Little Store in Gibsons Landing 886-2936 from $14.25 Burning Permits Still Required \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD IK WIT 11M\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD HKW\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDICTMIBafCT.(1IW) All class \"A\" industrial/land clearing type fires still require a burning permit.

Peanuts - On November 23 an excited group of tykes took their fust road trip and opened the new season with a very exciting hockey game in Powell River. This was the first real game for many of these youngsters, and they showed that playing and having fun is what is most important. They were pitted against a more experienced team, but they never stopped having fun or enjoying the thrill of playing hockey. When the lone goal for our team was scored from a great set-up by Travis Welda to the stick of Brandon Bye who popped it in the net, the crowd and team went wild. On the weekend of November 23/24 a coaches' clinic was held wih Brent Berry from UBC. Enjoying the sport and developing young minds were the main topic. The coaches who attended left the clinic with a renewed sense of direction, realizing scores don't make winners or losers. That's important.

Until the recent yeans of competitive curling and the big money games, the sport had decidedly few rules. The rules have increased due to a decrease in friendly sportsmanship and the desire to win the big prizes that are often at stake in modem competition. These days, big games are always adjudicated by an umpire and referee. In a small club like ours, friendly sportsmanlike games are usual and strict adherence to the rules is often ignored. One of the most flagrant violations of the rules in a club game is the one about only skips and vice- skips standing in or behind the house. The proper place for those players other than skip or third is along the sides of the rink between the hoglines unless they are delivering or sweeping a stone. Violating this rule can often distract the player who is delivering a stone. Another rule that is often violated is the sweeping rule that states a rock must be swept the last week's Men's Bonspiel full across the face of the stone. This rule is designed to prevent debris being swept under a stone to slow it down if it is running too fast. Behind the tee line, no player shall start to sweep a stone until it reaches the nearer tee line. Starting to sweep before the rock reaches the near tee line is commonly called warming the ice and this is another forbidden act. Touching a running stone with the broom is also not allowed. Normally such a stone should be removed from play. The old rule used to require such a rock be immediately removed the moment it was burned (touched), but some innovative players who could see that a stone was going to do damage to their rocks or their stone positions in the house deliberately started to burn a running stone. To prevent this, a new rule was introduced to the game. This rule states the opposing skip gets to determine if a burned stone should be removed or allowed to finish its motion to the end of its course. We are still looking for a few curlers. There is space for several mixed teams on Thursday night and we have room for more curlers in the Tuesday night men's league. If you are interested, come up to the rink on one of those nights and we will find a team for you. We are always interested in new curlers and new friends. Each Monday night, John intends to burn the ice so we have a keen, clean, level surface to play on. If you have time on Monday evenings, John would be very appreciative of your help.

The Christmas Break (mid- season layoff) has arrived for the local rugby lads. The last game of the first half took place on Nov. 16 at home vs the exb- Lions. Coming off two good wins in the previous weeks, the pigs were looking to end the half above .500. But this was not to be. Close but no cigar! Out early in the day, the lining crew busied themselves trying to put the beauty marks down on the pitch But1 fat Chance that day. The torrential downpour left the. field looking like it could have been the pool extension the town is hoping for. Lines floated away as fast as they poured out of the liner. It was evident that if the game were to go ahead, markings would not play a factor. Good Luck Ref. Showing up off the 9:30 boat, the opposition was psyched and ready. This was a day rugby lore is made of. Canada's Largest winger \"the Wadd\" was eager as a pig in mud to venture out into the muck and mire. So eager, in fact, that he had to go home and change his soaked attire for something drier to start the adventure. The referee showed up and away they went, on the field which was slightly better by game time. Splish and Splash, eek and aak, there were some mighty frigid bodies right from the start. As it turned out, both sides handled the treacherous conditions amiably and it was an okay display of rugby football. Sure there were some dropped balls and missed responsibilities, but heck, who wouldn't in those conditions? The locals tried in vain to stop the more technically in-tune pack of the exb-Lions, but to no avail. The final score was a respectable exb-Lions 14 - Pigs 6. litis now completes eleven weeks of rugby for the third di v. of the VRU.

Santa and his reindeer arrived early this year Santa Arrives With Light Show Santa and his reindeer came early this year! Tuesday Nov. IQ became a historic date for the Gibsons rudby and athletic club. Having spent most of Monday (in the sunshine, thank God!) stringing the wires to connect the twelve 1000-watt practise lights, it came time the next day to fanally flip the switch. Wow! What a feeling! If any of you have been to Swanguard Stadium, you'll know what we got. It really is just fantastic. Bring out your newspapers and easy boys. It's just like being in your front room. This is a major turning point in club history. Instead of having to book gym space or burn the car headlights, we can now frolic in all kinds of weather, and enjoy more positive practise time, on a par with all the big clubs in town. The dream has finally come true. At this time, thanks are in order. The help and expertise of all involved was immeasurable. Right from the start (which was delayed only a few years) it truly showed small town grit and determination. Thanks go out to: Howe Sound Pulp and Paper - donation of pole; Nick Bergnach - digging of holes; school district #46 - supply of power; John Envoldson Welding - manufacture of metal light standards and braces; Gibsons Fasteners - for being at work . late one evening; South Memo- ' rial Sports Association - donation of lights. The biggest and warmest thanks go to the four men who percevered with me. Without their help it would probably never have become a reality: Garry Mundell - Garry's Crane: erecting the poles, assistance with man-basket and general top-notch operating; Tom Morrison and Gord Currie - Morrison Electric: Smoothing the way with hydro, configuration and installation or wiring and power! And last but not least, my comrade in lightness: Wally Dempster - for the connection for cash and equipment, and desire to see our town upgrade the sports facilities. (Yep Laurie he can retire now). Also I would like to thank all the volunteers who pitched in their time and effort to create this magnificent happening. Bravo!! You have made me one tremendously proud and happy rugby player. Cheers and yum sing! On to the future we go. Here's to you; you're true blue, pigs, through and through! Oink! Oink! Looking for a unique gift?

Over 12,400 of a possible 28,000 Coho died as a result of the storm two weeks ago, according to one of those responsible for the hatchery, John Field. \"The creek (that the hatchery is on) went on a rampage coming down from the Caren Range,\" Field told the Coast News, \"and it brought a lot of silt with it.\" Last week's storm was responsible for the flooding. Field said the silt plugged the water intake for the hatchery's two holding tanks and the salmon died of oxygen starvation. Fields said much of the silt brought by the flooding creek came from a clearcut section of land above the hatchery and from a silt pond installed by the Ministry of Forests after the last killer flood in February. \"(That settling pond) was supposed to catch any debris that came down,\" Fields said. \"They put big berms around it.\" He said those berms now made up a large portion of the silt contained in the creek. \"The creek is much wider now,\" Fields noted. He said the remaining Coho, which were due to be released this fall, were released the same night the others had suffocated. \"We were waiting to tag them,\" Field said of the plans for the salmon before the flood, \"...so we could estimate our contribution to the overall catch after they were released.\" He said the surviving, untagged Coho were released to Pender Harbour's Mixal Lake, the body of water they were taken from as eggs. \"We started out with 60,000 to 70,000 eggs,\" field recalled, \"and lost half of those in February during the fust flood. Now we've lost half again...It was most unfortunate.\" Field said there is already a new batch of eggs at the Lions Park Hatchery, but the problem of flooding remains. \"I don't know if there is a solution at this point,\" Field said. \"When the water is that full of silt, there's not much you can do.\" SYLVIA IflBMMU&lfcfiftAlfjtaP/-\"\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\"\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD \" 1 ^'TltJtt, ' ^'.v-ttpmn Mi}. \"I ,N\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDt'* Jl L \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDmMlirii^^^rlF 1^ Make the Sylvia part of your Vancouver adventure...

At a Sechelt council meeting Nov. 20, Mayor Nancy MacLarty received approval in principal to look into the proposal. MacLarty said she had already discussed the idea with federal MP Ray Skelly. She also plans to talk to the Regional District and the Sechelt Indian Band about the park. A marine park in Sechelt would be good for tourism in Sechelt, MacLarty said, and would create an ecological attraction supported by federal government programs and advertising. If the marine park gets eventual approval, it is not likely to go ahead for three or four years, said MacLarty. \"This is just a fust step.\" Resident, regional district argue garbage collection A Coast resident angry about the SCRD's garbage collection policies tried for a second time to get satisfaction from the SCRD at the Nov 28 directors' meeting, but was told by SCRD Chairman Peggy Connor he had \"already had his day in court.\" Resident Robert Rodvik attended the meeting demanding further explanation from the SCRD about the refusal of regional garbage collectors to empty cans larger than 16 gallons. Rodvick brought his full 22 gallon container to a Nov 14 SCRD meeting to demonstrate how light it was, and claimed it was \"only common sense for the garbage men to empty it because it (wasn't) that heavy\". At that meeting Rodvick was told by SCRD Chairman Peggy Connor that the Workers' Compensation Board (WCB) wouldn't allow garbage collectors to lift \"oversized containers \" and that he had to buy a new one of proper size. At the Nov 28 meeting Rodvick said he had checked with the WCB and found out they don't regulate the size of containers other than to let garbage collectors decide what is too heavy for Ihem to lift. He claimed the decision not to empty contain ers over 16 gallons stemmed from the SCRD collection by-law, which stipulates containers \"be of standard size.\" Rodvick said the standard size indicated in the by-law is \"approximately 16 x 22\". \"There is nothing to indicate whether (16 x 22 stands for) feet, metres, inches, gallons, whatever,\" Rodvick said. He also asked what \"approximately\" meant. Rather than answering the question directly, Director Jim Gurney said the easiest way to rectify the situation was to amend the collection bylaw and establish specific sizes for garbage containers. \"We need to update the by-law,\" Gumey said, \"to metrify it.\" Gurney motioned the collection by-law be changed to place the size restriction for containers at 77 litres (about 17 gallons). Gumey's motion passed unanimously. Rodvick said the container limitation wouldn't accommodate the elderly or disabled, many of whom use 33 gallon cans because they can be bought with wheels attached and are easy to transport. Gurney admitted it would be a problem for those using the 33 gallon containers but said cans that size were the hardest for garbage collectors to empty.

Recycling aluminum saves 95% of the energy used to make items from new material. This means that your can manufacture 20 cans ol recycled aluminum with the same amount of energy required to make one can from new material. Not only cans but aluminum foil, pie plates, TV diner plates, and larger pieces such as screen doors and lawn furniture frames are recyclable. Ensure that what you are bringing In Is 100$ aluminum; if not (ie: lawn furniture may have steel rivets, ask the Depot attendant whether the item is acceptable. PLEASE USE THE GIBSONS RECYCLING DEPOT Operated by SCRAPS and Super Valu GIBSONS REALTY LTD. O One report had it as the best opening in Woolworth's history, but manager Ian Webber is a cautious man with a more modest assessment of the highly successful grand opening of one of Canada's oldest chain stores' in Gibsons earlier this month. \"It was,\" said Webber, \"definitely the best opening in Canada this year.\" Five new Woolworth's stores have appeared in Canada this year. There was a new one opened in Placentia, Nfld.; a second in Elmsdale, N.S.; two in Ontario, in Perth and Drys- dale; and the Gibsons store. An estimated 450-500 people were standing in line waiting for Mayor Eric Small to officiate at the official ribbon- cutting. The store has 17,000 square feet and has twenty-two employees -almost all of them hired locally. It is one of approximately 13S stores in the country. The first Woolworth's store in British Columbia was opened in Vancouver in 1906, the second in Nanaimo in 1915. For manager Ian Webber, the opening marks his sixth store in six years, his second as manager. Joining Webber from the Woolco store in Burnaby is Asst.

Webber himself is a native of Calgary, Alta. who moved to B.C. in 1963.

They have bought a house on O'Shea Road in Gibsons and hope to be here for from three to five yeats. Questioned by the Coast News, Webber acknowledged that business has been good since the store opening. \"We are getting a good response from the customers,\" said the manager. The arrival of this prestigious and venerable chain onto the Sunshine Coast is undoubtedly an evidence of the growth of the business community and speaks well about the long term economic prospects of this area.

Prior to white settlement it was s berry-picking area for the Sechelt band. Around 1890, Thomas William Roberts and several other men preempted. A son, Harry Roberts, became well known locally for his boat, the Chack Chack, and for columns he wrote under this pen name. Undoubtedly Roberts Creek's most illustrious resident was the author, Hubert Evans. The home he built for his family in the 1920's still stands on the beach south of the village centre. Hubert, a remarkably gracious and kindly man, is best known for his novel Mist on the River. Another novel, O Time in Your Flight, he authored when in his 90th year. He also took up poetry in these Utter years snd his collection Mostly Coast People bears tribute to his spirit and wisdom. Hubert Evans passed away in 1986 but he will not be forgotten. A little-known story that Hubert once told me concerns the cultist Brother Twelve and his mistress, Madam Zee, who ran a notorious commune on the De Courcy Islands off Nanaimo. In 1933, Twelve's ill-used followers revolted, trooped into Nanaimo and laid a battery of criminal charges against their leader. Twelve and Zee, after trashing the commune, escaped by boat to Roberts Creek with 40 boxes of gold coins. There they were hidden for six months by a still- loyal follower, on a piece of property above the present highway. When the initial uproar had subsided, they sailed up coast to Prince Rupert, boarded a train and escaped to Europe by way of Montreal. They were never apprehended. Until ten months ago, an historic log cabin called the Homestead stood on the upper side of the highway at Wilson Creek. Once the home of an early pioneer, it served in latter years as a second-hand store. In late January of this year, it was dismantled by the Qibsons Landing Historical Society and stored in Roberts Creek to make way for a new mall. It will be reassembled elsewhere when a suitable site can be found. 40-seat licensed restaurant In mal, by owner. 886-2223. 149 DRYWALL RENOVATIONS Large or small prolessional finishing.

But the dangers of hypothermia, thin ice, car failure and icy cold water can easily lead to tragedy if preventative measures aren't taken. Hypothermia is one of the leading causes of winter tragedy in BC and the Yukon. \"Lack of experience and preparation can turn a winter outing into a dangerous situation,\" warns Steve Borthwick, Chairman of the Red Cross's Water Safety Committee. \"Listen to weather reports and plan on the worst conditions possible,\" cautions Borthwick. Preventive action is your greatest defence in any outdoor activity. No one plans on their car breaking down, leaving them stranded and susceptible to hypothermia, but it happens. Make sure you tell someone where you are going snd when you expect to return. Always carry extra layers of clothing and a wool blanket in your car. In the event of car failure, if you are miles from the nearest phone, remain in your car, conserve body heat and wait for help. Likewise, if you discover a stranded motorist, check for signs of shivering, slurred speech snd poor coordination. If these systems are present, get the victim to s warm place immediately. Apply moderate heat to the head, neck and trunk and provide a warm non-alcoholic drink. Do not tub the skin as it draws blood away from the body core where it is most needed. In severe esses, where the victim displays slow breathing and appears rigid, huddle with the victim under blankets or in a sleeping bag. Direct body contact is best, skin to skin, especially to the chest and neck. Seek medical help immediately. Taking time to think and plan ahead will allow you to enjoy BC's beautiful outdoors this winter and help avoid emergency. Tuesday Dec 3,1991 7:00 p.m. E.S.P. T.V.

CoastNeivs Ckssi 886-2622 885-3930 22 Coast News, December 2,1991 Sechelt public hearing adjourned; business owner protests area plan A public hearing on Sechelt's new plan for development permit areas was adjourned amid confusion on Nov. 20, after a move to go ahead with the bylaws was vigourously protested by the owners of Tideline Logging snd Marine. The bylaws under discussion involved Sechelt council's plan to establish aesthetic guidelines for new buildings being constructed in two areas of S -chelt. The first area, the \"downtown central business district\", includes areas of professional office and residential space and includes parts of Cowrie, Teredo and Dolphin streets as well as parts of Inlet snd Whsrf svenues. The second area, meant to include areas of \"service trades\" and \"small industry\", includes a zone just south of Sechelt Inlet. Establishing special development permit areas would allow council control over some aspects of building design and materials, landscaping, lighting and similar details in new buildings costing over $30,000 in the areas. Rob Sabine, Sechelt planner, told the hearing the permit areas were meant to ensure a unified and aesthetically pleasing character would exist in various parts of Sechelt. 'You don't need a bunch of shrubs and cedar trees around a chain link fence.' But at least two owners of s business which would fall into the new areas registered strong disapproval of the plan. Dorhn and Rose Bosch of Tideline Logging and Marine on Wharf Avenue, whose property falls into both of the proposed development areas, accused council of trying to turn required fat their structure. During the discussion, the issues of zoning (which regulates allowable uses of buildings), building permits (which govern physical building requirements and engineering), and the proposed development permit sreas (which would regulate aesthetics of buildings and property in certain areas) became hopelessly confused. Eventually, council decided to adjourn the hearing, following recommendations by both Alderman Bob Wilson and Aid man Doug Reid that council should avoid even the appearance of railroading. The public hearing was adjourned until Dec. 4 at 7 pm.
