V8V 1X5 94.9 Atten: Rod Cardin COAST^NEWS 50 cents per copy on newsstands A B L I S H E D 1 9 4 September 6,1993 Volume 47 Issue 36 Fishing abuses snag enhancement efforts by Jane Seyd Illegal fishing on Chapman Creek has raised the ire of both the Sunshine Coast Salmonid Enhancement Society and local fisheries officials. \"We're very perturbed,\" said Kathy Clark, a director of the salmon enhancement group. \"We have done so much work to get the run to this stage.\" \"All the kids know what they're doing is illegal.\" People fishing in the creek have been going after spawning pink salmon, and have been using the wrong type of hooks, said Bill Chinnick, enhancement society president. \"This is the first year of a substantial year for pinks,\" he said. \"...We started that ran.\" But now those fish are being caught and kept against regulations, \"it's really disheartening.\" Grant McBain, community advisor for the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO), echoed those concerns. The problem boils down to \"wrong species, wrong gear,\" he said, with people trying to snag the returning pinks with treble hooks and weights in the creek. At this time of year, the fish are all waiting in pools to become ready to spawn, he said, making them easy prey for the rod and reel. A recent front page photo showing a young fisherman going after pinks doesn't help either, said McBain: \"It doesn't help to have the paper showing the wrong sort of fish hanging up in the air.\" According to sport fishing regulations, only single barbless hooks can be used when fishing in fresh water. That way, when the wrong species of fish is caught, it's easier to release and the fish isn't damaged as much by the hook. Any wild trout, sockeye, pink or chum salmon caught in fresh water must be released. Depending on the size, a total of either two or four coho and chinook salmon may be kept. In Chapman Creek, fishing is also illegal around the falls and 100 metres downstream of them. But those rules don't seem to have made much of a dent on many of the fishing habits at the creek. turn to page 2 Sechelt elders rue Caren logging by Jane Seyd Anne Quinn stood at the edge of the logging road in the breeze blowing in over the clearcut and the fireweed, looking out to Narrows Inlet in the distance. \"Imagine our people came over these mountains.\" The other elders surveyed the scene around them at the top of the Caren Range. \"If we had our trees up it would be more beautiful,\" said Diane Joe. \"No wonder they're working so hard on that protest Look at the damage they do.\" The stop was part of a Thursday picnic and revisiting of the area for six Sechelt Indian Band elders, who recalled the excitement of berry-picking and medicine-gathering of earlier times among other feelings of sadness at the kind of clearcuts they saw. During their youth, said the elders, summer berry picking was done with their grandmothers, who would then make everything from pie to jam to blueberry upside down cake. Salal and huckleberries were dried in the sun to be preserved for winter. \"Now the stores sell it and they call it roll-ups,\" said Joe. turn to page 2 Anne Quinn picks blueberries as the elders of the Sechelt Band tour the Caren Range Thursday. Jane Seyd photo OCP revisions complete, public hearing date set by Charles Hart With a drop of the gavel, Gibsons council wrapped up 20 months of intensive planning work Tuesday in giving first reading to an amended Official Community Plan. Since an initial draft was aired at a public hearing in January 1992, the plan has undergone substantial changes at the hands of consultants, council, and municipal staff. In addition, the public was given the opportunity to review the revised draft at open houses hosted by the town in May. Changes made since then,\" most of them housekeeping word and mapping improvements, according to municipal planner Susan Stratis, are detailed in a 13-page explanatory sheet compiled by the town for ease of comparison. However, the amended plan itself is available for cross reference at the library. Stratis said some of the most significant changes involve a tightening up of wording for development permit areas, especially development permit area No. 4 on multi-family housing. Revised sections deal with building scale, blend with surrounding area, density of design, landscaping and parking requirements. Tbe plan bas undergone substantial changes at tbe bands of consultants, council, and municipal staff\" A new marine recreation zone has been added along the waterfront between the inner harbour (classified as commercial haibour) and the municipal boundaries, and several possible contaminated sites are indicated on a map calling for detailed environmental assessment before redevelopment of the site* could proceed. The marine recreation zone essentially provides for seasonal recreational moorage and does not allow for foreshore structures or upland commercial ,..--, *...,���..*����. ���* ���...-. uses. The latest revisions alio incorporate some wording changes to reflect other specific criticisms levelled at the draft in May. An intention to develop heritage policies, for example, is clearly spelled out by the addition of: \"Support completion, in the future, of a Heritage Strategy and Heritage Management Plan to provide more detailed guidance for heritage preservation.\" The amended plan received the unanimous support of council (Cllr. John McNevin wu absent) and will now go to a formal public hearing in the Cedars Inn meeting room, 7:30 pm, Wednesday Sept. 29. 14 �� 11 I �� Rockwood, council to meet over lodge's future by Stuart Burnside Outcry continues over a Sechelt council decision not to apply for reserve status for Rockwood Centre. Letters are pouring into the municipality, residents are making impassioned appeals to council and an informal meeting has been called between councillors and the Rockwood Lodge Society. At Wednesday's Sechelt council meeting, Sechelt resident Vic Walters ran through a brief history of Rockwood Centre and the amount of community effort it has taken to get the facility to the point it is. Walters recounted how in 1982 the Sechelt Chamber of Commerce hatched a scheme to buy Rockwood when the property was for sale at $63,000. The mayor of the day, the late Bud Koch, orchestrated a raffle to help pay for the purchase. \"Would you believe we raised $80,000 with that raffle?\" Walters said \"But that was done on the (belief) Rockwood would always be for the community ... No halfway measures.\" Walters went on to list high and low points in Rockwood's history including some of the private donations of Sechelt businesses and individuals. The list included $8,500 he had donated himself. \"Throughout all of this,\" Walters said, with all the sales and selling of tickets, \"it was always with the idea Rockwood would be a permanent civic place for the community ... So no one can understand why council won't do that ... lock it up. Restrict the use of Rock wood any way you can.\" Councillor Michael Shanks said he had \"been in touch\" with Rockwood representatives and the informal meeting requested should serve to alleviate any fears of Rockwood being sold. At a council meeting in the beginning of August, council voted four to three against a proposal to apply to the province to put Rockwood Lodge in a reserve. Shanks said he preferred other options which would not limit council's control. Animal euthanasia -a last resortfor pets, vets and owners by Darah Hansen When entering veterinary college, students must pass through an interview in which instructors like to ask topical, often controversial questions. Dr. Wendy Royle remembers her question was on the subject of abortion: whether she felt a physician had the right to say no to the operation. She answered 'Yes*. Her interrogators then asked: \"If you feel that way, do you also feel that a vet lias the right to refuse euthanasia?\" Her answer was yes again. She added that vets also have the responsibility to consider the alternative for the animal in question and if that alternative doesn't include a decent quality of life, \"then I don't think you're doing it a favour.\" In the four years since becoming a vet, Royle has had the chance to put her words into action - more times than she can count - both in her new practice at the Sechelt Animal Hospital and in past work for a city animal shelter in Whiiehorse. Euthanasia - the means of putting an animal to a painless death. It's a frightening option for anyone who cares for animals, yet one that usually must be faced both in the case of pets or strays from a shelter. Several means exist for euthanizing animals that are considered humane by both the SPCA and veterinarians. They include intravenous lethal injection, gassing and shooting an animal. Royle prefers the injection method, using of euthanyl, a potent drug which almost immediately shuts down the central nervous system. Royle said in her experience most people resist the idea of euthanasia as a positive choice for animals. In the case of a family pet, it's a genuine feeling of loss, of losing the family friend. People grow very attached to their pets and \"(they) just can't bring themselves to make that decision,\" says Royle. Others feel animals should be allowed to die naturally and that it's kinder for them to do so. turn to back page Derby brings big haul for salmonid enhancement Sunshine Coast Salmon Enhancement Society president Bill Chinnick (left) and hatchery manager Bob Amstead (right) receive $12,000 from Hugh Gatsby (centre) of Lord Jim's Resort.

By order of the Board of Trustees E.H. Wright Secretary to the Board WATCH FOR THE ^SEPTEMBEI mPen Hotel rebels on regional rezoning to rural residential by Jane Seyd The bump and grind and the beer can stay for as long as the old hotel's around. But the prospect of water slides and Fantasy Gardens- style theme parks in the future would definitely be out, along with any other major commercial development. That's the gist of a rezoning the regional district wants to pass on the south half of the Peninsula Hotel property in Roberts Creek, which would change the zoning from commercial to rural-residential, allowing the hotel to continue under legal non-conforming status. \"The intent is not to put the Pen Hotel out of business,\" said planner Steve Olmstead. But it is meant to discourage future strip development along the highway, he said, and consolidate commercial uses in downtown Roberts Creek, in keeping with the draft community plan. About 25 people turned out to debate that move at a public hearing Wednesday night at Roberts Creek community hall, with opinion split on its merits. Those in favour of the rezoning said it reflects the wishes of the community as expressed Owners of the Peninsula Hotel are objecting to a Roberts Creek Official Community Plan proposal to rezone their property, arguing It will half their property value. Joel Johnstone photo both in the past and pending community plans. They said making prospective buyers aware of those wishes is only fair, since the property is now up for sale. Calling it a long overdue move, \"1 think what's happening here tonight is exactly what the people of Roberts Creek have been asking for,\" said Alex Ross. In a letter, Caitlin Hicks also supported the rezoning, asking \"Isn't this an agricultural area?\" Barry Krangle emphasized the rezoning has the support of the official community plan committee. He added that's not meant to be a smack against the establishment itself. \"It's got nothing to do with the Pen,\" he said. \"It's got to do wilh the property.\" But those against the rezoning said rights of the current property owner - who could stand to lose money through Ihe move - haven't been taken into account by the ___^___ regional district. Calling the move \"far, far too draconian\", Albert Eger said the downzoning of private property isn't fair. \"What is it going to do to the property owner? What is he going to lose?\" he asked. Others questioned the economic impact on the communi- \"We're within our rights to do this' ��� Brett McGillivray ty, through loss of commercial revenue or a lawsuit for compensation from the owners. The possible effect on other commercial properties was also raised. Saying it's \"fairly obvious\" the move will affect other owners, Steve Gamble commented, \"I'm concerned not all the cards are on the table.\" Dale Blackhorn, owner of the hotel for the past seven years, said he felt singled out by the move and added he would hold the regional district accountable for any loss of property value. But Brett McGillivray, regional director for the area, said after the meeting it's not the fin-it time a commercial zoning has been taken away on the highway. \"We're within our rights to do this.\" Some anglers set bad example in creeks from page 1 According to Chinnick, when he went to speak to one young fishermad,-.\"he was standing there with three pinks ot a gaff hook and the eggs were running out on to the ground.\" Another time, a father was standing in the stream with a buzzbomb on his line, \"and he's showing his kids how to fish,\" said Chinnick. Fishing at night when nobody's around to see is another favourite practice. Terry Gjernes, recreational fishing coordinator for DFO, said this kind of illegal fishing can be a problem. Kids see hundreds of fish in a river and \"they think it isn't a really big deal if they go and catch a few,\" he said. \"It's an educational thing as well. It's hard to legislate ethics.\" But McBain said since all sport fishermen are supposed to have a licence which sets out the rules, \"ignorance is no excuse for not obeying the law.\" \"There's really no excuse for it,\" said Chinnick, who added the police have been notified about the problem. On Friday morning, the remaining pinks were seined out of the creek and transferred to the Chapman Creek hatchery for spawning. \"That way at least we'll have a little control over it,\" said Chinnick. Added Clark, \"otherwise it'll be open season.\" Seeking healing plants on the Caren Range from pagel The old people would collect leaves for tea: \"no Lipton and Red Rose in those days,\" and pick long grasses to make mats out of. The gathering of plants for natural medicines was also important. On Thursday, the elders managed to find some of the special plants again. The bottom stalk of one of these was dried and used to cure everything from toothaches to open wounds. Known as \"skwinalph\" in the Sechelt language, \"it's a very powerful medicine,\" said Gilbert Joe. \"If you take it in a large volume it's poisonous.\" \"Right now it's the best,\" said Beatrice Hewens, examining flowers on three of the stalks ��������������� collected. But meanwhile, the elders said they were sad about the kinds of logging practices they saw evidence of at the Caren. ���������*���- \"I'm a little angry with them,\" said Hewens, patting the stump of a large old-growth tree left in the slash. \"There's a lot of waste.\" Others expressed surprise at the number of logging 'They can't really say they'll sustain tbe timber up here' - Gilbert Joe roads they could see. \"Then they wonder why they have these landslides...there's no trees to hold it up ��������������� anymore,\" said Diane Joe. \"Our creator put them here for a reason and they want to clear them all out. \"Cut and run,\" ������������*������ she added. \"Most of our wood goes to other countries. \"We can't afford to buy it here.\" Gilbert Joe said although he worked for 30 years as a logger, he'd like to see the remaining forest in the Caren preserved as a park. Several of the elders echoed those feelings on Thursday. That policy hasn't been adopted by the band council, which has yet to discuss the issue, said Sechelt chief Garry Feschuk. Meanwhile, \"they can't really say they'll sustain the timber up here. It takes 1,800 years to grow,\" said Joe. He added he's also become concerned about nesting sites of the marbled murrelets - known as \"spipiyus\" in the Sechelt language. - - funeral is saying \"goodbye\" to a loved one in a way that offers special meaning and commemeration of life.

A /��� Coast News, September 6, 1993 Sechelt initiates search for RCMP building by Stuart Burnside Now that the District of Sechelt is taking responsibility for providing its own police services, the Sechelt RCMP detachment could become the Wilson Creek-based RCMP. Al Wednesday's Sechelt council meeting, councillors voted for administrator Art Lew to begin negotiations for the lease of an unspecified building on Field Road, which could eventually become the new RCMP headquarters. Sechelt became responsible for its own policing after the 1992 census was released, showing the municipality's population to have exceeded 5,000. A meeting between Sechelt council and the RCMP was held in spring, at which point Vancouver superintendent David Cowley outlined the needs of the Sechelt detachment in terms of location and new facilities. At the time, Cowley was adamant the new police building should be located in the downtown core, possibly on Block Seven with Ihe proposed new municipal hall. Cowley, however, was not at Wednesday's meeting to defend his point of view, due to a \"miscommunication\" with the District of Sechelt, and it fell to Sechelt Staff Sgt. Cam Reid to remind council the Mounties were looking for a centrally located, \"high profile\" facility. Reid asked council to hold off making any decisions until the next council meeting when Cowley could attend. -21 ��� r 1 1 (*���*-��� i���i iH 9 J Infill kfa~ ������J��� _J\"\\. .mW: \\^_Mi1^m 1 y - MS*** i, ��� +\"* vl *!|m L - P Mayor Nancy MacLarty said that Lew was being told only to look into the Field Road location and nothing would be decided without further consultation with the RCMP. She and Cllr. Bob Wilson pointed out the cost of a core location for new RCMP facilities is projected at $2 million and could prove prohibitive for the district. They indicated it was prudent for the municipality to look at other options. \"Even if the facility was to end up on Field Road,\" MacLarty said, \"we could still provide an office in the new municipal hall to give the police a storefront presence (in the district core).\" Cowley will be invited to the next council meeting Sept. 15. Roberts Creek .school principal jack Pope says any concerns parents have over the state of the school .given the ongoing construction, are unnecessary. The centre portion will be under renovation until November but all other areas are open, Including the new addition. In November the old office area and classrooms will undergo renovations with operations moving Into the newly renovated section. Class times have been adjusted for Roberts Creek School only to the extent that school will begin at 9:15 am and end at 2:45 pm.

District administrators of the ever-expanding school system estimate anywhere between 100 and 150 new kids in the classrooms this September, bringing the total student population to almost 4,000. Assistant superintendent Stuart Hercus reported new teach ing staff has been hired to deal with the increase. The district now employs 237 teachers, principals and vice-principals. Hercus said more staff will be hired if the student numbers exceed estimates made so far. Additional special needs teachers and teacher-aides will be hired after the requirements of the district are assessed. No additional secretarial help will be hired, said Hercus. Staffing will increase in the custodial and maintenance departments in order to keep pace with the enlarged school buildings and portable classrooms. Major construction at Roberts Creek and Cedar Grove elementary schools will continue into the school season. Meanwhile, school board trustees concluded their two-and-a-half day retreat held on the Coast last week by defining their five primary goals for the coming school season. Among them, board chair Pat Stuart said trustees will be looking to develop plans for acquiring land and constructing new intermediate schools; clarify staff roles and responsibilities in the district; and further implement year 2000 principles at the intermediate education level. Stuart said the subject of restructuring and downsizing the present school board was discussed, but no conclusions will be reached before the elections are held this November.

Pender recycling program launched by Jane Seyd After several years of community effort, the wave of environmentally conscious recycling pushed north of Sechelt this month with the recent \"unofficial\" opening of a new recycling depot in Pender Harbour. Open Ihree days a week and accepting materials ranging from newspapers lo milk jugs, the depot is set up in an old welding shop on Highway 101 near Menacher Road in Klein- dale. The operation is not without its problems - money to cover a paid attendanl, equipment and the cost of transporting materials to market is still lacking. But GRIPS - the Pender Harbour recycling group - remains optimistic aboul eventually getting funding. \"We've been plugging away al Ihis for a couple of years,\" said Val Verrall, an organizer for the group. Up till now, Pender residents struck by Ihe urge to do Ihe right thing have had to haul recy- clables half an hour down the highway to the Sechelt depot. The new depot - located between Madeira Park and the Pender landfill site - should make recycling more possible. \"We've been plugging away at this for a couple of years' -Val Verrall Recently, the Pender recycling group suffered a setback when it was refused a federal Environmental Partners grant which would have helped offset costs of operating the depot. The application will be looked at again in December, says Verrall. Meanwhile, the group is looking to local service clubs, corporate grants and possible provincial funding to go towards a cardboard baler and can com- pacter. For now, the depot will be run by volunteers and get by on donations, including the six months free rent given by the owner of the depot building. A recent grant of $5,000 from the regional district will also help. Along with the regular recyclable materials accepted, the depot will have a \"free table\" where residents can pick up reusable items or post notices for buried treasures sought. \"We look on it as a community resource rather than something which should be buried in the ground,\" said Verrall. Newspapers, ledger and computer paper, cardboard, tin and aluminum cans, plastic milk jugs, clear and brown glass can be dropped off at the depot from Friday to Sunday between 10 am and 4 pm, along with old telephone books. Meanwhile, SCRAPS, the Gibsons recycling group, is now also operating the Sechelt depot in co-operation with Claytons supermarket. The depot hopes to begin accepting glass again in the next month, says Suzanne Chernoff, president of SCRAPS.

All the warning signs are there, and with a deadline day of Oct. 25, there is every certainty that the election writ will be dropped within the next week or so. That has candidates across the country jockeying for position at the starting gate for the polls, and the Coast's lineup of hopefuls is no exception. While Reform Party Leader Preston Manning is making political hay with not-so-subtle manoeuvres by the political powers that be in Ottawa to keep him out of a televised leadership debate, the party's banner bearer here in the North Island-Powell River riding, forester John Duncan, is also trying to raise his profile. His handlers invited the media to a meet-the-candidate breakfast Friday - an invitation the Coast News declined as it would for any candidate at this stage. Duncan was the first local candidate nominated, nearly a year ago, and there is still plenty of time for more interviews before the election without acquiescing to personal lobbying. The Liberal Party candidate, Al Huddlestan, lives in Port Hardy at the north tip of Vancouver Island and last week made his first visit to court favour on the Sunshine Coast since winning the nomination. He was travelling in a rolling, Winnebago-style campaign office, dropping by at local newspapers to introduce himself and promote his background in municipal politics on the Island. The Progressive Conservative Party's Mark von Shell- witz, who lives in Campbell River, also stopped by last week. His camp has been busy firing off press releases: blasting incumbent NDP MP Ray Skelly's attendance record in the House of Commons, or responding to Skelly's attacks on the Tory government's cash and carry computer sale, von Shellwitz seems bent on an old-fashioned campaign - one that seeks to discredit the incumbent while appealing to the electorate's ceaseless yearning for a fresh face. The National Party and the Greens, which have also both nominated candidates for the North Island-Powell River riding, are laying comparatively low. As fringe parties, they tend anyway to concentrate on advancing political ideas at election time, broadening debate, rather than pursuing personality politics to win votes. As for Skelly, he appears still to be waiting' for ��-date before embarking on the election trail. Angling for closures By all accounts, fishing on the Coast has been exceptionally good this summer. Enforcement of regulations, however, is not an easy task and around creeks it is especially critical once returning salmon arrive. The Sunshine Coast Salmonid Enhancement Society is rebuilding runs on Chapman Creek with a concerted hatchery program, but it appears angling regulations are being abused, threatening enhancement efforts. There are different rules for different species and specific gear restrictions. Angling ignorance sent Fisheries officers wading into the waters Friday on a rescue operation. It's time creeks such as Chapman were closed to all fishing once the salmon start to run. Raise voices on beach plight Every day we are bombarded by environmental issues and they are reported well in the press and on TV. Many of us belong to environmental organizations, study complex issues and try to come to informed opinions. In spite of this environmental awareness, which I thought was of a high calibre on the Sunshine Coast, we have an environmental disaster in our midst. I am referring to the destruction of the beautiful beach at the foot of Wakefield Road where a large sewer pumping station has been installed. Truckloads of debris were also dumped in a very haphazard way, but some of this was removed due to public outcry. Tonight on TV, I heard that they are building a bridge on Vancouver Island in such a way as not to disturb the fish. I cannot reconcile saving old-growth for*1 est and nesting sites of birds with a great deal of vigour, but allowing the destruction of a natural, accessible beach, which was for the enjoyment of human beings. I am surprised there hasn't been a much louder voice raised to restore the public beach to its natural condition. BARBARA K. WHISTLER Sechett Cooperation main hope for future Re: Peter Light's open letter to Murray Cantelon: Well, wowee, Mr. Light. Your letter was one big passionate blast. In a part of Canada where expressing heartfelt concern is considered 'not nice' if not downright eccentric or daft, it was grand to read a heartfelt, hot lament I am sorry you chose to describe big government and big business 'walking claw in claw', an insult to claw-bearing creatures. And, I suspect, that before the question of forest management might divide us, we are suffering from significant linguistic divisions. For example: if there are people called environmentalists then who are the people who are not environmentalists and most Importantly where in the name of Zeus do they think that they might be living? Is there somewhere outside of the environment? And then we all speak of the environment as though it were outside ourself. We can no more be aside, or outside the environment than can a fish be out of water. We are in the environment, of the environment, and acting upon the environment. So long as we are unable to understand that there is no outside the environment, no total scientific detachment, we are in BIO trouble. I've been seriously concerned by our role, my role, in the degradation of where we all live, this planet, since the '60s. It seems that the finahcially dominant culture (cultures?) are racing towards self-destruction, sweeping along tbe financially poorer cultures. My only hope and consolation now are that die planet and some species other than man may survive our follies. Mr. Light, I really appreciate your letter. But I do have one minor point of difference. Unlike you I am very uncomfortable with the word sustainability. Each point of view, each interest group will define that word differently. Division lurks in that word. Also, what historical precedents do we have of mans' able stewardship to show his ability to understand or practise sustainability? Will a dominant financial culture change overnight or In 20 years?

And, I suspect that the practise of co-operation is our main hope for a future. CYNTHIA VON RHAU Gibeona Breast clinic starts I would like to thank the Coast News for printing my letter 'Hope exists on the breast cancer issue.' Starting in September there will be a Breast Self-Exam Clinic held monthly at the Gibsons Health Unit. This clinic was held in 1985/86 and I invite women who attended then to come again and reacquaint themselves with the technique of breast self-exam. Early detection is often the key to surviving breast cancer. The clinic will give women the knowledge and technique to provide power for survival. Call me at 886-8847 for further information. DENISE OLSON, L.M Gibeona Not a bad beginning from our new prime minister Canada's Iron Lady, as Kim Campbell has been styled in the British press this summer, is winning approving notices for ber first days as prime minister. The moves Campbell is making to set ber own stamp on the Progressive Conservative Party in the short run-up to the next federal election are perhaps predictable, but nonetheless welcome for that Fust her apparemly determined demonstration of frugality in office is singled out for applause and perhaps deserves a suspension of cynicism. For too long politicians have specialised in preaching steely-eyed fiscal restraint for everybody else while lapping up the gravy from the public trough as though there were no tomorrow. If there hu to be a leaner and more efficient Canada, and a competitive world insists that there must be, then those who would lead should be leading by example. The public should be asked for sacrifices only after the power bloated have indicated a willingness and an ability to do more with leu. A profound cynicism must develop when leaders like Campbell's predecessor preach sacrifice to the public yet live themselves in an opulence bordering on tbe imperial. It might be unfair to suggest that Myla Mulroney lived in the style of the wife of the late President Marcos of the Phillip- pines, but never did the former first Canadian Lady indicate that she knew the meaning of sacrifice, let musings John burnside alone practise it along with the rest of us at her husband's earnest behest The second initiative from our prime minister winning plaudits abroad is her insistence on moving the country towards greater independence from American policy, both foreign and domestic. Again, a sharp practitioner of the art of politics, which Campbell almost assuredly is, could be expected to move some distance away from the embarrassingly obsequious stance favoured by the Boy from Baie Comeau. It is a change in emphasis that the country is surely ready for and, happily for Campbell, coincides with an increasingly inward-looking United States, less concerned than previous administrations with hawkish posturing, perhaps, and less expectant of automatic subservience from its allies. It is a good lime to declare one's independence when no one much cares whether one is independent or not Canadian political necessities match up conveniently for Prime Minister Campbell with the growing desire of Canada's giant neighbour to shuck itself of some of the burdens of international leadership. Smaller nations can be effective international voices within multi-lateral organizations, more effective than any satellite subservience can allow. If Canada can match this move to asserted independence in thought and action with clear calls for increased efficiency and a control of the bureaucracy within the United Nations, for example, the country might regain the respected international role it enjoyed previously. The role of unaligned moderate has both dignity and some usefulness on the world stage. The years of Mulroney 'me-tooism' saw that treasured international role in danger of slipping from the Canadian grasp. Fair enough, Kim Campbell, so far. There never can be too much emphasis on frugal stewardship of the public purse; there should always be a distinctively Canadian voice in international affairs. Our prime minister, in the short time available to her, bas made a shrewd beginning. But it is only a beginning. As Mulroney was a lackey of the United States, so did he demand obsequiousness from those beneath him. There is a cabinet of Mulroney loyalists to be dealt with and a long and well-earned reputation for Tory fractious- nest and fratricide pre-Mulroney. One of Campbell's challenges will be to keep the loyalty of an egotistical and opportunistic caucus. She will also be asked to repair the fortunes of the most unpopular federal government in Canadian history in very shon order indeed. She will be aided in this latter challenge by the weakness of the opposition parties in Ottawa. The NDP is its usual waffling, well-intentioned ���elf, much too closely tied to the apron strings of the trade union movement to command significant allegiance of middle of the road Canadians ��� and Canadians are nothing if not middle of tbe road. There is some truth to the old joke about why Canadians cross the road - to get to the middle. On the other band, that natural denizen of the middle, the Canadian Liberal Party, seems oddly ineffectual. This commentator once, with many others, mused about what a great leader Jean Chretien might have been before John Turner headed him off. But the Chretien that leads the Liberals today is a strangely muffled shadow of the bantam cock from Trois Rivieres who was the bright light in successive Liberal cabinets under Trudeau. In short, Campbell may have more trouble with the shadow of her predecessor and with her own caucus than she does with the opposition this fall. It's going to be interesting to watch.

It got dubbed capital by Queen Victoria while it was still really a lumber town and the effluvia from the Eddy mill continued quite apparent on Parliament Hill when the wind was right. This bothered some who felt it was unconscionably dowdy for the capital of the country to which this century clearly belonged. There were quite a lot of people who thought this, including my father; but there were certainly many others, more professional perhaps, who were convinced we had at least 100 years to go. There were always people who welcomed postings to Ottawa and there were always others who groaned, thinking there was nothing to do in this sleepy old town filled with civil servants. I was there off and on in the '40s and in the '50s until the film board moved to Montreal and I was one who enjoyed it. You could walk pretty well anywhere you wanted to go and it was pleasant walking. The cafeteria of the Chateau Laurier, next to the Houses of Parliament and built of the same stone, was the best place for breakfast I have ever found. I would often walk to work with a friend and sometimes we stopped at the Y part way for a sauna. This sure beat sitting in a line of cars for an hour or so. It is true that night life, at that time, was limited, but private parties were an almost nightly occurrence and if you were working late you drove up the Aylmer Road to a lively roadhouse with a band led by Fred Davis, now of Front Page Challenge. In the '60s a young brother of mine moved there from Winnipeg with his family to be the legal advisor to the Pensions Board. This may sound something of a sinecure, but the Canadian Legion had 10 lawyers on full time to argue cases with him. He got a piece of riverfront property on an island called Manotick, which in itself was an Ottawa story. The whole island had been deeded to John Bracken when he switched from being a Liberal Premier of Manitoba to leader of the Conservative federal party. Adding 'Progressive' had been his other requirement. To get his plot of land, Philip had to have an interview with the squire, to see if he was the right sort. He built a ranch-style house with a big rec room at the bottom with doors that opened onto the slope of the river bank and a piano and a guest room I sometimes visited. The kids, two girls and a boy, entered high school. His wife, Audrey, became superintendent of music for two school districts. What they found to their surprise was that the kids really took to Ottawa. They loved the place and were truly interested in all the stuff there is about - government and history and so forth. This brother, a lawyer, was also a man who was never without some extra entrepreneurial project or other and it grew in his mind that if his kids could be this fascinated with the nation's apparently glamourless capital, why shouldn't kids from all over the country have an opportunity? In a nutshell They put together something they called EduCanada with the object of bringing as many as possible to the town for 10-day seminars. They decided on grade 10 for the people. They got the use of two schools, a mile and a half apart, for the summer. They broadloomed the gymnasium and built collapsible little cubicles each containing a double-decker bunk, a desk, two chairs and a mirror. Half-way between the schools they rented a small house and installed a nurse. They carefully chose kitchen staff and particularly bus drivers. Phil went up and down the country wearing shorts with a small shouiderbag and a brief case and made deals with all the intermediate air carriers. When ail was settled they had the price down per student for the 10-day seminar and transportation at $100. Notices had been sent to every high school in the land and the rec room turned into an operations room with maps all around the walls with little coloured pins in them and bins at the bottom for the in-coming mail. This nerve centre was pretty well ran by Phil's daughter, Pat, then just on 17. It all worked out beautifully. The EduCanada buses got to be stuart nutter known around Ottawa, people were always singing in them. No concessions were made at all about French/English. The theatre put*on shows for them; the archives made special displays. Wednesday night was civics night and a really top hombre would be there on the platform answering questions. A top columnist for the Globe and Mail took to coming up every Wednesday and reported that he had seen the president of the Bank of Montreal standing there near midnight and there were tears running down his cheeks. EduCanada could clearly have run on for years, but one day Audrey got a call telling her that she would not be allowed to teach music anymore because she had not been to Teacher's College. She laughed and said didn't they know that she had taught the teaching of music for three years at Toronto Teacher's College. They said ah yes, Mrs. Nutter, but you didn't go through the course. Philip gave up his job in Ottawa, sold the house in Manotick and moved them all back to Winnipeg. Anyone who saw the beginning of Vancouver's Expo '86 may remember the massed children's choirs from all over the country - Audie did that. Murrelet chic takes flight Wouldn't it be great if a group of concerned citizens could, simply ask for the preservation of an area for its special features and on behalf of the animals which live there and actually have the government do as the group requested? Unfortunately, reality is that current decision makers have little interest in marbled murrelets and other threatened creatures which depend on our remaining old- growth forest, including ihose of the high Caren Range. It takes something spectacular, like the fust active murrelet nest find in Canada, followed by sustained public and scientific interest, to finally move them into taking an interest. It is also true that the more we know about animals the more likely we are to make an effort to save them. The researchers who found the marbled murrelet nest on the Caren, as well as the photographers who discovered it went to great pains to ensure that this find was treated with sensitivity. Although it would have been advantageous to the Friends of Caren cause to have decisionmakers, other scientists and even birders see the nest for themselves, we kept its location secret to ensure minimal disturbance, however well-meaning. This made good documentation doubly essential and I wish on behalf of Friends of Caren to thank student biologist Volker Bahn, video cameraman Steve Sleep and photographers Keith Thirkell and Ervio Sian for their expert help. Perhaps the overall effects of our nest observations can in part be measured by the success or failure of this nest At 8:51 pm on August 20, 13 and one half days after first seeing it, the juvenile murrelet, now glossy black and white, left the nest for the first time and flew fast and strong in the path of its parents. Its maiden flight predicted and on time, was westward, probably to the seas off the mouth of Pender Harbour. DR. JOHN FIELD Madeira Park Murrelet nest no .surprise It should come as no surprise that an active nest of the marbled murrelet has been reported in the old-growth forest of the Caren Range (News, Aug. 16). This sighting of a nesting pair will represent one half of one per cent of the roughly 400 birds (or 200 pairs) reported in ihe latest Audubon Society bird count which placed the murrelet, neither rare nor endangered, in the same frequency as crows and starlings. This could well be the only nesting pair in the whole area, which is neither older nor younger than any other forest on the Coast which has not been logged or burned. The purported discovery was made by the team of Paul Jones, self-styled environmentalist and self-appointed guardian of the Caren, whose academic and technical background has not been announced, Volker Bohn, a biology student visiting from Marburg, Germany, whose university, scholastic level and academic qualifications are not known along with Dr. John Field, who could be a dentist, a geologist or a surgeon and his son. Using nothing more than one tenuous and inconsequential sighting, this group calls for a complete halt to the planned legal harvest of trees in the Caren Range and threatens massive civil disobedience if their demands are not met. Earlier reports by government biologists have stated that the number of murrelets in the Caren Range is minuscule. Careful study and planning by the qualified experts of the BC Forest Service, considered by many to be one of the top ranking in the world, assure us that the Caren Range may be safely and progressively logged with major benefits to the local and provincial economies and without major disruption to the inhabitants. Approval has already been given for such a harvest. On considering this matter there are two questions we must ask ourselves: 1) Who do these Friends of Caren think they are? 2) How gullible do they think we are? JAMES R. THOMSON Gibsons Spotting things in strange places So we spotted a marbled murrelet in the Caren Range, or could it be a spotted onel It's funny that this is spotted just a week after the headlines in the Coast News of Terminal's plans. I wonder if this bird was spotted before the last Wednesday of the month or a few days after. I used to see strange things in strange places, but thanks to friends and family I am recovering nicely from that problem. B.REID Madeira Park Keep waters free from pollution In response to Bill Brooks' letter in the Coast News Weekender: First I would like to say I was very impressed by his way with words. However, I choose to believe all the studies done at the site of the Chaudiere are a little premature. Most findings probably still showed traces of the detergents used in the cleanup. He also mentioned how marine life thrives near such underwater structures. Yes it may be true that life multiplies in and around polluted areas. An example to that effect is the world had its biggest population explosion ever about 60 to 70 years into the industrial revolution. Did pollution have that affect on the human race? As a sailor (engine room) in my younger years I respect our waters and believe we should not add anything to them other than that which is absolutely necessary.

Blood donor dine The Blood Donor Clinic is being held today, Sept. 7 from 3 pm to 8 pm at the Seniors Centre in Sechelt. It requires about 45 minutes of your time and is such a worthwhile cause, so please consider it if you are able. Now that September has arrived, many activities will be starting up in the next few weeks including the first meeting of the Davis Bay/Wilson Creek Community Association. It will be held on Tuesday, Sept. 14 at 1:30 pm at the hall and everyone is invited to attend. There has been a suggestion made that perhaps the meeting time could be changed from afternoon to evening in order to accommodate the people who are working during the day. This is your opportunity to come out and air your opinions and/or ideas. Potluck There will be a potluck dinner and corn roast to kick off the fall season on Sunday, Sept. 12 at 6 pm at the hall. What a great way to get acquainted if you are new in the community. This is always a warm and friendly get-together, so be sure to mark it on your calendar. It gives us a chance to try out those new recipes we've been drooling over but haven't had occasion to use unlil now. Newborns Reports have come this way regarding very favourable comments heard in the halls of St. Mary's Hospital with respect to the Books for Newborns. Grandparents are thrilled with the idea of their grandchild receiving their very first book while only days old. As many of you know, this program was spearheaded by Bill LeNeve who worked tirelessly to organize it and then had to find the money to pay for it. The DBWCCA voted to fund it for one year - good on them. To date, there have been 26 books given to newborns. Bill must be congratulated on such a community-oriented endeavour. Beaching reports There is an inspired lady in our community named Gwen Abram who is a volunteer with the BC Beached Bird Survey Program, which is sponsored by the Ministry of Environment Emergency Service Branch in Victoria. It is her job to walk the beach from Chapman Creek to Wilson Creek and make detailed reports on anything she deems unusual. She reports that in the last two weeks, she has found four dead seagulls on the beach, two with fish hooks in them, while the other two deaths remain a mystery. She asks that if you are fishing, please be careful when you cast. One gull was snagged in the wing and drowned, the second had fishing line coming out of its gullet, so it obviously swallowed a hook. by Deanna Lueder, 885-7365 The cycle begins again today as children meet their new teachers and classmates to begin the 1993/94 school year. 1 hope it's a good year for everyone; that the good times are recognized and enjoyed and that strategies for coping with the bad times are developed and improved. School staff, curriculums and standards hopefully challenge students and encourage self-discipline and self-motivation. There are other activities too that promote a positive self- image that is so basic to a child's well-being. These activities are fun and develop skills at the same time. School District 46 has a wonderful children choir 'chorala- tions' that is beginning its new season. It is welcoming new members form grades four through 12 who love to sing and who are self-motivated. Call Janice Branson at 885-7019 for information. Sechelts shed light on native history A new visitor's guide which highlights First Nations services and attractions is a good idea, says Sechelt Indian Band chief Garry Feschuk. Launched recently by Ministry of Tourism and the BC First Nations Tourism Association, a new guide - the first of its kind - is intended to spread the word about native cultural heritage. A second publication, due out this fall, will be an inventory of more than 180 native-owned tourist attractions, events and services around the province, including everything from cultural museums, natural heritage sites, and art galleries, to performances and luxury resorts. Canoe races, traditional dancing as part of the pow-wow circuit, and a luxury lodge at Vancouver Bay are all in the band's long-range plans, he said. , This summer, Sechelt elder Gilbert Joe has also been' explaining Sechelt history to tourists. Library volunteers The public library is looking for volunteers to help at the library for three hour shifts. Responsible teenagers would be a welcome addition and it would provide a good work experience as well. Story telling The Storytelling Festival is looking for volunteers also. On Friday Sept. 10, they will be holding a volunteer orientation get-together. This is a good time to find out what the festival is all about and if you wish to become involved. It begins at 5:30 pm in the basement of Rockwood Centre. Call Joan at 885-2522 for information. Next Saturday, the 11 is a busy day for the Sunshine Coast communities. Sechelt has two events coming up. The Seniors Craft Fair in their centre on Trail Avenue begins at 10 am. The Friends of the Sechelt Library are sponsoring the Library Fair and Silent Auction at the Indian Band Hall also beginning at 10 and going until 4 pm. The Sunshine Coast Fall Fair takes place in Gibsons on the same day so plan your schedule and take in all three events as they each offer unique items and experiences. Helen Dawe lecture Don't forget lo pick up your ticket at Talewind Books for the first annual Helen Dawe lecture on Sept. 12 at St. Hilda's Hall. Howard White will be the first speaker in this series. Tickets are $5 and proceeds go to the Sechelt Public Library. It's really unfortunate that the new SPCA shelter on Henry Road has run into problems with its cat population so much so that absolutely no new cats are being accepted into the facility until further notice. However the centre is still very busy providing shelter, medical attention and adoption services for dogs. Volunteers and donations are always welcome.

At Wednesday's Sechelt council meeting, Cllr. Michael Shanks got other councillors to agree to a review of the three per cent increase for ice time currently expected at the Sechelt arena. The three per cent hike was factored into the 1993 budget by administrator Art Lew as a routine cost- of-operating increase. \"At the time I felt it was a conservative increase,\" said Lew. \"It's not unusual for user groups to protest against rate increases.\" Mayor Nancy MacLarty tried to get council to defeat the Shanks motion. \"Three per cent a year is not a lot to ask when you consider people from all over the Coast are using the arena,\" MacLarty said, \"but only Sechelt is paying for it.\" It was noted by other councillors, however, that registration fees for minor hockey have escalated across the province this year because of insurance hikes, and it was deemed inappropriate to burden the association even more with higher ice rates. It was also noted that some $43,000 has been trimmed from the operation of the rink last year and the municipality could afford to be generous.

Aprile Dunlop, Carleen Rudland and Jennifer Sinclaire had been chosen as the three finalists at the local by Pat Thibodeau Our summer adventures are over and our last week was spent celebrating Wednesday. Geoff Craig and Laurie Gray had the group over for a picnic party and on Friday, we had a closing bash with cake baked by Erin Fearn (loved the dinosaur decorations), watermelon from the Egmont Lions Club and lots of goodies from involved parents. We even managed a last excursion to the lake accompanied by Wassail, Jacob's dog, in case we met any beans. He valiantly chased a bear for us twice and vigilantly protected us while we enjoyed the clean, clear water of Waugh Lake. At our next general meeting of the community club (date to be determined), the possibility of having another summer activ ity program next year will be discussed, among other things. If you are interested, please attend.

If it comes back it was and always will be yours. If it never returns, it was never yours to begin with. If it just sits in the living room, messes up your stuff, eats your food, uses your telephone, takes your money, and never appears to know that you actually set it free in the first place, you either married it or, gave birth to it. Egmont glimpses Eagles, eagles, everywhere. Two eagles soaring nearer and nearer to Jezabelle, the cat as she sits on the peak of my very steep roof while I scramble up the ladder to rescue her; By the time I get there, the eagles are no more than 10 feet above her. Corrections In last week's column, Linda Goble's name was misspelled. Also, Wally's shed is defiantly breaking all the laws of gravity, not Wally and Shad (who is Shad anyway?) If you stand on the airplane float at the government dock in Egmont you too will wonder how it can stay put. Since the phone at the school has been disconnected (now that the fun program is over), any news you would like to include can be left as a message to me on the bulletin board and I'll get back to you.

Four of the 15 entries in Tuesday's show were selected for the big final event of Sept. 1, and despite the fact that none of our girls made it to the finals, they all gave beautiful performances and were cheered on by the many supporters from the Coast. We hope they will try again next year. Interesting motto I noticed a T-shirt the other day, the wording of which was quite intriguing. It said 'Nepal is here to change you, not for you to change it.' Maybe someone will make some with the same wording, only it should be referred to the Sunshine Coast, since so many people come here and fall in love with the place and with the lifestyle. The trouble is that when they do fulfill their dream and come into our midst, they immediately try to change it to become more like what they left behind. This, of course, does not apply to all newcomers, most of whom are delighted with what they find. Lord Jims Resort �����* 101 Qlc's Cove Rd., just north of Seaet Cove on Hwy.

WRUDE COTTRELfSri rvlatairal SI Mi/ic _ J ma wm Coast News, September 6, 1993 13 \\ I news Gibsons library weighs grant options by Charles Hart A windfall is a windfall, even if you're not quite sure what to do with it. The Gibsons and District Public Library is in the welcome position of having received some additional operating funds for the coming year, and there is no shortage of need. But just exactly how the funds will be spent remains uncertain, says librarian Myrna Short. At least some of the money, courtesy of a special incentive grant from the provincial government, will be used to purchase new fiction, said Short, who noted that population growth on the Coast has been accompanied by an increase in demand for a more varied selection of fiction titles. Other operating needs high on the list include more staff so that library operating hours can be extended, and a major computer upgrade. \"No matter what the grant is we can certainly spend it,\" said Short. The annual grant from the province increased from $12,586 to $21,965 this year, partly because of the increase in population on the Coast since the last Census was taken. Wo matter what tbe grant is we can certainly spend it' - Myma Short That basic grant is $1.90 per capita, which was augmented this year with an incentive grant of $1 per capita - given to libraries that raise more than $10 per capita of local support. \"The Gibsons and District Public Library benefitted because of the combination of tax-based funding from Area E and Area F and an increased grant from the Town of Gibsons,\" Short said. There is no guarantee the incentive grant will be available again next year, so it would behoove the library to spend the money wisely, Short suggested. \"It doesn't seem wise to splurge in one year then cut back in the next.\" But for all that, \"it's a dilemma you don't mind having,\" Short added. While the library is running with about half the minimum number of staff it needs, it's unlikely the board would consider expanding hours and staffing until a new building is complete, Short said. The building committee is completing plans for a projected $1.3 million library adjacent to the existing site on South Fletcher, and has asked Gibsons council and the regional district to approve going to referendum for the funds at the same time as the municipal elections in November. The new building has been costed out at about $20 per year for 10 years, taxed on a house with an assessed value of $160,000. The building cost could be reduced by as much as a third depending on grants and community contributions of labour and materials, the building committee says.

The main bone of contention, Tombu says, is the possibility of commuters coming into conflict with their employers over a recent decision by BC Ferries to delay the Langdale to Horseshoe Bay run by 10 to 15 minutes to limit \"cross traffic\" interference with the Naniamo ferries leaving Horseshoe Bay. 'Those of us who commute are going to be losing jobs,\" Tombu said. He added he knew of one person who had already lost a Vancouver job because of ongoing delays Mondays and Fridays and as well he was aware of others who had been repre- manded by their employers. The decision to delay Lang- dale/Horseshoe Bay sailings is one of eight safety recommenda- t fens to come out of the Nemetz Rtport released last month by the-ferry corporation. I Similar calls for Coast representation of the ferry board have been made in recent months by the municipalities of Gibsons and Sechelt and the regional district, but have not met with no success. Rhodes was unavailable for comment by deadline Friday. 5 YEARS AGO The newest extension to St. Maiy's Hospital is nesting completion and is expected to be in operation later this month.

The Laura Jen returned to the government wharf in Madeira Park from Smith's Inlet on what may be her last fishing trip with present owners Dennis and Mary Parker, who are replacing her with a larger boat.

Heavy rains caused like flooding last February. Art McGinnis announced that the completion of his marina and hotel will be in the summer of 1984. Federal dredging of Gibsons Harbour to accommodate the marina is already underway. The marina is being built adjacent to the major project, a 50,000 sq. ft resort hotel on Gower Point Road.
