In honour of Allan Cassidy
Future swing fits with former councillor’s favourite pastime Sam Van Schie News staff
P
enny Cassidy can’t go by Oak Bay Marina without thinking of her husband. Allan Cassidy passed away July 10, the day after the couple’s 35th wedding anniversary. But when the 59-year-old Oak Bay councillor was alive, he loved to look over the marina and count the sailboats. “Every time we drove by there, he’d pull over and we’d get out and look at the boats. It was something he was very proud of,” she said, recalling how her husband started the junior sailing program at the marina, by fundraising for a fleet of sailboats when he was an Oak Bay Sea Scouts leader in the ’90s. To honour Cassidy’s contribution, Oak Bay plans to install a new two-person bench swing in the park overlooking the marina. Mayor Christopher Causton saw a memorial swing on his travels and got the idea that it would be a nice way to honour his colleague. He passed the idea on to the parks committee, which is looking at options for the design. “Allan was very passionate about young people learning to be good community citizens,” Causton said. “The fact he set up the sailing program that is still around 19 years later, it’s something we’ll always remember him for.” Another brainchild of Cassidy’s was the Recognition of Renovation and Building Achievement award, which he helped establish in 2004 to recognize residents who made quality upgrades to their properties. An architect by trade, Cassidy would help pick the award recipients, whom the district presented with a local artist’s rendering of their building. Council recently renamed this award the Allan Cassidy Recognition of Renovation and Building Achievement award. “It’s really nice to know his name will still be out in the community,” Penny said. “He loved his community and he put a lot of time into it.” editor@oakbaynews.com

Capital Region’s politicians tout shipbuilding contract as major win But larger contract went to Halifax shipbuilder Erin McCracken News staff
Cheers were the order of the day in Victoria and Esquimalt after the federal government announced it will award West Coast-based Seaspan Marine Corporation an $8-billion shipbuilding contract. Seaspan, which owns Victoria and Vancouver Shipyards and the Vancouver Drydock, will build a non-combat fleet, that includes Canadian Coast Guard vessels, an icebreaker and joint-support navy ships. The more lucrative $25-billion combat-vessel contract went to Halifax-based Irving Shipbuilding. Quebec-based Davie shipyard got nothing. “You always hope for the biggest, but this is nothing to sneeze at,” said Esquimalt Mayor Barb Desjardins. “It would have been nice to get the $25 billion, but $8 billion is going to provide us with some stability at the shipyard (as well as) jobs.” She said the lucrative contract puts Esquimalt on the map, and the township’s industry and commercial sectors are open for business. Seaspan has said all along that the 20- to 30-year contract work will result in new and long-term jobs, and prompt capital infrastructure investment at the shipyards. The company planned to do most of the ship construction at its Vancouver yard beginning late 2012 or early 2013, while 15 to 20 per cent of the workload will fall to Victoria Shipyards. The contract “will be bringing good paying jobs to the region, jobs that go on and on,” said Victoria Mayor Dean Fortin, adding it will represent a boon to Greater Victoria’s shipbuilding and marine industry, which nets more than $1 billion in economic spinoffs each year. “This is a contract that will continue giving for a long time and it’s very exciting.” Not since the Second World War has the federal government awarded shipbuilding packages of this magnitude. Together the contracts, which make up the National Shipbuilding Procurement Strategy, are worth $33 billion. “Building ships in Canada has historically been carried out on a project-by-project basis,” said François Guimont, deputy minister of Public Works and Government Services Canada. “While we felt we were more than capable of building the combat ships, we are honoured to have been chosen to provide non-combat vessels for the men and women of the Royal Canadian Navy and Coast Guard,” said Seaspan CEO Jonathan Whitworth. The work will inject billions of dollars into B.C.’s economy and create an average of 4,000

On Wednesday, Vancouver-based Seaspan was awarded an $8-billion federal shipbuilding contract to build Coast Guard and non-combat ships, which is expected to create thousands of news jobs in the province. jobs over the next eight years, Seaspan said. “It tells us that Canada works, so B.C. can get to work,” Premier Christy Clark said. Another $2 billion in federal dollars will be up for grabs for the construction of 116 smaller federal vessels. The work will be awarded on a project-by-project basis to companies other than Seaspan and Irving.
In addition, $500 million a year over 30 years will be available for the ships’ repair. The umbrella contract agreements will be assigned by year end, and individual ship construction contracts will be negotiated next year. emccracken@vicnews.com - with files from Tom Fletcher, Black Press

Keys stolen in condo break-ins Oak Bay police are warning condo managers to protect their key vaults after stolen keys were used to break into a building in the 1300-block of Beach Dr. last week. The suspect stole keys from a box inside the building as well as from an exterior key vault intended for firefighters on Oct. 9. The next day, a break-and-enter was reported at one of the suites in the building. Investigators believe the keys were used to access the unit. Police say old outdoor lock boxes should be replaced with vaults mounted into the wall, which are more secure. As always, condo residents are also advised not to let unknown people into their building. At other condos, storage areas were compromised. Locks were damaged in an attempted break-in at a storage room of a building in the 1400-block of Beach Dr. on Oct 8. Overnight Oct. 12, three ground-level storage units were forced open, but nothing stolen, at a complex on Hamiota Street. A storage shed behind a building in the 2200-block of Cadboro Bay Rd. was also broken into Oct. 15, and a leaf blower was stolen. Police also dealt with broken windows at a bank on Oak Bay Avenue on Oct. 15, and on Oct. 12 a vehicle stolen from Falkland Road and later found undamaged. editor@oakbaynews.com

Oak Leaves Bazaar digs up treasures Sam Van Schie News staff
Monterey Recreation Centre will transform into a bargain hunter’s paradise, as the Oak Leaves Bazaar takes over the seniors’ social hub on Saturday. Each autumn, donations are brought into the centre by the boxful and volunteers from the Oak Bay Seniors Activity Association sort them into themes that will fill every room in the centre. “There will be a whole room of books – that’s the No. 1 thing we get donated – and another room with tapes and records, and a big room of knitwear made by the seniors here,” explained Monterey Rec Centre coordinator Lesley Cobus, listing off a few examples. There will also be holiday decorations, household items and mysterious attic treasures. “It’s always fun to look through the
old collectables from yesteryear,” laughed Cobus. She personally keeps an eye out for new linens and silverware at the bazaar. “There’s always high-calibre goods, things never taken out of the package, that seniors get as gifts and they don’t want.” Last year’s bazaar brought in $7,000, which goes to funding the Activity Association. It’s one of the association’s biggest fundraisers of the year, on par with its spring rummage sale. In addition to items for sale, there will be raffle tickets to win gift baskets donated by local businesses. And tea plates, complete with mini sandwiches or scones, will be available in the Fern Cafe. Oak Leaves Bazaar is tomorrow (Oct. 22), 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at Monterey Recreation Centre, 1442 Monterey Ave. There’s no entry fee and patrons are asked to bring their own reusable bag to carry their purchases. editor@oakbaynews.com
Times Colonist sold to Glacier Media The Times Colonist and several other Vancouver Island daily and community newspapers have been sold. The buyer is Vancouver-based Glacier Media Inc. which offered Postmedia Network $86.5 million for the Times Colonist and 20 mostly weekly newspapers on the Lower Mainland
and across the Island -including the Nanaimo Daily News and Port Alberni Times. Although Postmedia said the offer was “unsolicited,” various business organizations and the Globe and Mail last month reported Postmedia was exploring the sale of the Times Colonist as part
of a broader strategy of paying down the company’s debts. Postmedia was formed in mid2010 to buy out bankrupt Canwest. Glacier owns magazines and newspapers across Western Canada and in Ontario. Among these are 17 papers in B.C., including four daily newspapers.

Braille taught to people with sight “It’s really not as hard as people think it is.”
Erin McCracken News staff
Elizabeth Lalonde has the world right at her fingertips. Since learning to understand the meaning of the raised dots in the 200-year-old braille language, the Saanich resident has opened new doors for herself. “It’s literacy for blind people,” said Lalonde, who was born with retinitis pigmentosa, a condition that affects retina cells. Lalonde has lived her entire life with 90-per-cent vision loss. And until last year, when she enrolled in a nine-month intensive blindness immersion training program, she relied on audio books and talking computer technology to “read.” But at the Louisiana Center for the Blind (there are no for-

mal training centres for blind or visually impaired people in Canada) Lalonde learned nonvisual life skills, from cooking for large groups and travelling with a white cane to using adaptive technology and reading braille. Now Lalonde, 38, wants to teach others Right On The Dot, her new introductory braille course for people who can see and those who are blind or have limited vision. She developed it after establishing her new business, BlindWay Training and Consulting Services, six months ago. “It’s really not as hard as peo-
ple think it is,” Lalonde said of learning braille. She has been an advocate and mentor in the blind and disabled communities for more than 25 years, and volunteers as national chair of the Canadian Federation of the Blind. By teaching people with sight how to read the braille alphabet and numbers, Lalonde hopes to increase their awareness about a language that isn’t often talked about. “I want to normalize it a bit for people,” Lalonde said. The six-week course begins Wednesday (Oct. 26) at 7:30 p.m. at Esquimalt Recreation Centre, 527 Fraser St. .

St. Aidan’s church embraces the rainbow Natalie North News staff
Of all the symbolic items inside St. Aidan’s United Church, there is one attracting the most attention as of late. A rainbow flag hangs outside Rev. Michael Caveney’s office door – a symbol of the church’s official public welcome of the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community. Recently, St. Aidan’s celebrated becoming the second United church on Vancouver Island to complete the Affirming Congregation Program under the United Church of Canada. This program studies the issues of inclusion and states that the congregation welcomes all peoples. The congregation, led by Rev. Caveney went through a yearlong educational process based on materials from the United Church of Canada, and voted in favour of becoming an affirming congregation. “Very often a congregation will say that these are the values, but by going through the process, it’s highlighting,” said Rev. Caveney. “Many congregations say that they are inclusive, and yet, for example, lesbians cannot be fully involved or ordained in those churches.” The Comox and Salt Spring Island United Churches have also gone through the process. Laurissa Chapple, media and communications co-ordinator with the Victoria Pride Society calls the move “awesome,” but one that’s been a long time coming. “As everything in our movement has, it’s taken time and it’s another milestone to certainly celebrate,” Chapple said. “It’s a testament to Canada. It’s a testament to our growth as a

The building is located next to the Oak Bay Fire Hall and Police Department at 1703 Monterey Avenue. There is no financial consideration to be received by the District of Oak Bay in exchange for granting a licence to occupy, therefore, the financial assistance that would be provided to Girl Guides of Canada is estimated to be in the order of $180,250 over the three and one half year agreement, which represents the estimated rental value of the property.

OUR VIEW
Good week for Victoria economy With economic gloom casting shadows over so much of the world, it was good to have two sunny announcements in Greater Victoria this week. On Tuesday, the World Curling Federation announced the city will once again host the international men’s championship in 2013. The last time Victoria played host to this event was when Save-On Foods Memorial Centre had just opened its doors in 2005. More than 115,000 people attended matches during the competition, giving area businesses an estimated $20.4 million boost. The 2013 event promises to increase the international exposure of the city as the competition will be televised in all 12 countries that are participating. That boon to marketing will undoubtedly pay dividends for everyone who make a living from tourism. But the even bigger news came the next day after the federal government unveiled the winners of its gargantuan shipbuilding sweepstakes. Victoria missed out on the astronomical $22 billion contract awarded to Halifax for new warships. But the selection of North Vancouver-based Seaspan for the $8 million civilian ship contract is no drop in the bucket. The company controls shipyards here as well as Vancouver and local workers will reap tremendous benefits from this contract. Among the ships that will be built and tested on the West Coast is the John G. Diefenbaker polar ice breaker, which will be as long as 140 metres. This impressive ship along with Arctic offshore patrol vessels, including four oceanographic science ships and three fisheries science vessels are to be built in a relatively open process. The Diefenbaker, budgeted at $720-million, will serve to inspire industry, the public and the scientific community and give B.C.’s economy a welcome shot in the arm.

OPINION
Occupy Wall Street reflects increasing frustration David Suzuki
Science Matters
I’m not the only one unhappy with economic systems based on constant growth and endlessly increasing exploitation of finite resources – systems that concentrate wealth in the hands of a few while so many people struggle. Since Sept. 17, protests have spread from New York to a growing number of cities across the United States, Europe, and Canada, in a movement dubbed “Occupy Wall Street.” The protesters’ aims aren’t always clear; in some case they seem downright incoherent or absurd – such as calls for open border policies and increased trade tariffs at the same time. It’s interesting that those credited with spurring the movement did so with a single question: “What is our one demand?” The question was first posed in Vancouver by Adbusters magazine. Editor Kalle Lasn said the campaign was launched as an invitation to act more than an attempt to get an answer. Focusing on a single demand may or may not be a useful exercise, but the conversation itself is necessary. Thanks to the attention these protests are generating, union leaders, students, workers,
and others have a public forum to raise questions about our current economic systems. Why have governments spent trillions of dollars in taxpayers’ money to bail out financial institutions, many of which fought any notion of government regulation or social assistance, while doing nothing for people who had life savings wiped out or lost homes through foreclosure? And why have governments not at least demanded that the institutions demonstrate some ecological and social responsibility in return? Why do developed nations still give tax breaks to the wealthiest few while children go hungry and working people and the unemployed see wages, benefits, and opportunities dwindle – and while infrastructure crumbles and access to good health care and education diminishes? Why are we rapidly exploiting finite resources and destroying precious natural systems for the sake of short-term profit and unsustainable economic growth? What will we do when oil runs out or becomes too difficult or expensive to extract if we haven’t taken the time to reduce our demands for energy and shift to cleaner sources?
Why does our economic system place a higher value on disposable and often unnecessary goods and services than on the things we really need to survive and be healthy, like clean air, clean water and productive soil? Sure, there’s some contradiction in protesters carrying iPhones while railing against the consumer system. But this is not just about making personal changes and sacrifices; it’s about questioning our place on this planet. In less than a century, the human population has grown exponentially, from 1.5 billion to seven billion. That’s been matched by rapid growth in technology and products, resource exploitation, and knowledge. The pace and manner of development have led to a reliance on fossil fuels, to the extent that much of our infrastructure supports products such as cars and their fuels to keep the cycle of profits and wealth concentration going. Our current economic systems are relatively new – methods we’ve devised both to deal with the challenge of production and distribution for rapidly expanding populations and to exploit the opportunities.
It may seem like there’s no hope for change, but we have to remember that most of these developments are recent, and that humans are capable of innovation, creativity and foresight. Despite considerable opposition, most countries recognized at some point that abolishing slavery had goals that transcended economic considerations, such as enhancing human rights and dignity – and it didn’t destroy the economy in the end, as supporters of slavery feared. I don’t know if the Occupy Wall Street protests will lead to anything. Surely there will be backlash. And although I wouldn’t compare these protests to those taking place in the Middle East, they all show that when people have had enough of inequality, of the negative and destructive consequences of decisions made by people in power, we have a responsibility to come together and speak out. The course of human history is constantly changing. It’s up to all of us to join the conversation to help steer it to a better path than the one we are on. Maybe our one demand should be of ourselves: care enough to do something.
Readers respond: Family Day, Occupy protests Not everyone will sleep in on Family Day Re: We’re still waiting for Family Day (The Gen Y Lens, Oct. 7) I’d like to point out to Kyle Slavin that the only people sleeping in on Family Day across the country will be government employees, teachers, bank employees (although even that is changing) and the others fortunate enough to work a Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., work week. Many more will be scrambling to find babysitting arrangements for young children who would normally be in school so they can go to their jobs in the many stores and businesses that are open seven days a week. Of course, these same places are open so that those lucky enough to have the day off can spend it shopping. Heather Wright Victoria
Mainstream media slow off the mark Thank you for running your story: Occupy Victoria takes direct aim at money, banking (News, Oct. 14). I realize there are many
aspects to the problem, more complicated than the majority of us understand, and I have been slowly grasping what this is all about. I felt your story had a good summary of the situation. It was good to see that our Occupy Victoria had an organizer. I think the protesters in New York need for a spokesperson to get a clear message out there telling the public exactly what they stand for. The protest in New York has actually been going on for a month already, but mainstream media in New York apparently did not pick up the story back then. This is the reason my husband has taken to watching news on the Internet instead of mainstream media. Susan Fernandez Saanich
Nothing wrong with rewarding hard workers I’ve watched the “occupy” protests on TV, and after watching many interviews it seems there are as many reasons people are protesting as there are people. The underlying theme
though seems to be the disparity of the have’s and have not’s, the wealthy and poor, the expanding divide and a need to change the system. And I ask, what’s wrong with a system that allows a grocery clerk like Alex Campbell Sr. to grow a chain of successful grocery businesses, employing thousands of people and investing millions of dollars into the community? What’s wrong with a system that allows a fired car salesman like Jimmy Pattison to create an empire, again employing thousands of people and investing millions into the community? The system is open to anyone who is prepared to work hard, innovate and take some risks. Look at what Apple founder Steve Jobs did for the world. He quit school and worked out of his garage. He worked hard and created value for many. These people worked hard all their lives, even though they could have retired long before their time. They’re not greedy, and they’ve been rewarded for bringing so much to so many. The other question I have to ask is: if we’re going to change the system, what are we going to change to?

Downtown ice rink faces human obstacles Occupy Victoria’s tent city taking up rink’s space Rudy Haugeneder News Staff

united way
A long-planned and large Christmas season public skating rink
covering the exact Centennial Square spot where the Occupy Victoria tent city sits on, is about to test the community spirit of the protesters and the downtown business association. The two sides have yet to meet to deal with the problem – a temporary 17- by 11-metre ice rink the Downtown Victoria Business Association plans to install Nov. 21. However, both sides are optimistic a simple solution can be found. Ken Kelly, DVBA general manager,
says he expects his organization will meet with People’s Assembly of Victoria representatives within two weeks to sort out the situation. The business association has been planning the ice rink project since midAugust – almost seven weeks before the People’s Assembly held its first organizational meetings. People’s Assembly supporters live in about 20 tents set up at Centennial Square last Saturday after a day-long protest in the

square and downtown march by about 1,000 people as part of the worldwide protest against corporate and banking industry greed, and economic control. Saying he personally supports the “spirit” of Occupy Victoria in finding solutions to social and economic ills facing the community, Kelly said “I would be really very surprised if there is nothing but cooperation between us” in ensuring the rink will be set up. Most of the protest tents sit on the planned ice rink site on the lower level of the square beside the McPherson Playhouse. Anushka Nagji, a People’s Assembly spokesperson, said the ice rink comes as a shock to her group and will be discussed by the group. The solution might be as simple as negotiating some useful material concessions from the downtown business community for moving

the tent city to the more weather-exposed side of the Centennial Square, she said. However it is up to the assembly to decide what to do – if anything, said Nagji, adding that the protesters know the square does not belong to them and is a public place for all people and organizations to use. Current plans call for the open-air ice rink to be officially open on Nov. 26 for what has, until now, been the annual Centennial Square Light-up and, if a solution is found to deal with the tent city, the rink would be open to skaters daily until Jan. 2. The rink cost $60,000 to rent and is supplied by an Ontario company. The DVBA plans to ask users to contribute a toonie to defray expenses, said Kelly. Skate rentals will be available. If all goes well in finding a solution with the People’s Assembly, “we’re looking forward to inviting all of Greater Victoria to come and enjoy an outdoor skate this winter,” he said. The ice – rain or shine – is good until the weather hits higher than 10 C, he said. The ice is kept cold via a chiller and piping that runs under the ice sheet. editor@oakbaynews.com

Bedside monitors focus of Hospitals Foundation fundraiser Sam Van Schie News staff
Walking into the Royal Jubilee Hospital’s emergency room last Easter, Robert Modrow thought little of his chest pain. The active 69-year-old had been to his family doctor and tests showed nothing was wrong. Emergency room doctors were just going to take an angiogram picture of blood vessels in his chest. But his heart stopped on the way to the operating room. He woke up a week later in a hospital bed with no idea what had happened. “I had black and blue bruises on my chest where defibrillators had been used to restart my heart,” Modrow recalled last week. He had an incision in his chest for a pace-
maker, and learned he’d had six bypass surgeries. His wife counted 16 tubes for fluids going in and out of him. He was also connected to a vital-signs monitor with electrodes measuring his heart and respiratory rates, blood pressure and other vitals. These monitors used to be shared between patients as they became available, but in the new Patient Care Centre, the goal is to have one in every patient room, thanks to the Victoria Hospitals Foundation fall fundraising campaign. The campaign seeks to raise $595,000 to buy 94 vital-signs monitors for the care centre. “It’s amazing how far technology has come and how a few improvements can not only make an impact on patient care and outcomes that directly save lives,” founda-
Fall Savings
tion chair Rod Dewar said. The monitors will be used in heart health and general surgery units, where an estimated 4,000 patients will be hooked into them each year. Modrow, who has completed his cardiac rehabilitation and is now in good health, said being attached to the monitor helped him relax during his time in the hospital. “When you’re lying there you’re totally dependent on all these people and you don’t quite know what happened, you’re overwhelmed,” he said. “It was enormously comforting knowing I could drift off to sleep and the monitor would be my voice connecting me to my caregivers, and it would let them know if anything went wrong.” To donate to the foundation’s fall campaign, call 250-519-1750 or visit victoriahf.
ca. Funds raised through the foundation’s annual Visions gala, Nov. 19 at the Fairmont Empress, will also benefit this campaign. editor@oakbaynews.com
Plugged in to vital signs ■ Monitors display digital vital signs data on a colour touchscreen located beside a patient’s bed. ■ Healthcare providers have mobile devices to view the vital signs data wherever they are in the unit. ■ An alarm will alert doctors of a major change in a patient’s vital signs.

Theatre staging drives social change: author UVic instructor studied audiences’ reactions Tim Collins News contributor
Will Weigler teaches a first year applied theatre course at the University of Victoria. It’s a good job for someone who has spent years as a director, producer, playwright and actor. His true passion, however, is community theatre. He believes that this form of “applied theatre” can be an important driving force for community development, education and social change. “Effective plays can be a massive engine for social change,” Weigler says. “In the end, you can take away a person’s home, their job, even their lives … you can take away almost everything. But you can never
take away their story.” Weigler surveyed and compiled thousands of accounts from theatre goers, critics and others in the industry to discover the patterns in composition and staging that led to those “aha!” moments in theatre. “It was amazing,” Will says, “I reviewed the experiences of theatre lovers and critics all over the world and found that the same patterns kept emerging.” Through a method he calls “grounded theory” Weigler says that he discovered the common factors that lead to those periods of esthetic arrest when a theatre audience sets aside its preconceived notions. It’s at that point the audience is open to a new encounter with the subject matter and the development of new ideas and viewpoints. It’s an important accomplishment for groups who may suffer from societal prejudices. The path to achieving
University of Victoria instructor Will Weigler writes in his new book Strategies for Playbuilding that theatre can be a vehicle for social change. Tim Collins photo
those moments of epiphany is the basis for Weigler’s book Strategies for Playbuilding: Helping Groups Translate Issues into Theatre. In
the book he draws upon his research to detail what he says are five key categories in staging, each with six to ten variations. It’s a blue-
print and a new vocabulary for playwrights to allow them to most effectively achieve powerful and meaningful productions. “It’s a unifying thread; a powerful method for a community to voice their experiences and through that voice to effect social change,” Weigler says. “We all filter our experience through a veil of preconceived ideas. Proper stages tears away that veil and allows for the audience to have a fresh encounter with the subject matter.” It’s also a method that allows for all members of a group to share in the creative process. It allows for their voice to emerge in the final work and encourages
cross cultural and intergenerational co-operation in the development of the play. “In the end, by using this new vocabulary and by focusing on the five key categories of staging, groups can speak the same language and share their experience and viewpoints to create a more effective message.” This isn’t a new passion for Weigler. In the late 1980s he founded a youth theatre company called the Young Actor’s Forum. His aim was to bring together youth from different cultures, ethnicities, and economic backgrounds to perform plays about their lives and perspectives. The forum is no longer running. “I wrote Strategies for Playbuilding primarily in response to people who saw our (Youth Actor’s Forum) productions and encouraged me to write about our collective process,” Weigler says. editor@oakbaynews.com

Halloween Night in the Museums Craigdarroch Castle marks the season with Giggling Iguana’s presentation of the Edgar Allen Poe classic, The Fall of the House of Usher on selected evenings through Oct. 31. Visit www. thecastle.ca for details. Poe is the subject as well for Urban Arts Productions’ presentation of Nevermore, a bold, haunting musical, staged in the original Supreme Courtroom of B.C., on the third floor of the Maritime Museum of British Columbia. “With hauntingly beautiful melodies, Nevermore breathes new life into Poe’s work and explores a twisted true-life tale as bizarre as his classic stories of the macabre. It is a montage, a whirlwind, a dream, a life and a nightmare all in one.” Nevermore runs Oct. 27 to 29 and Nov. 3 to 5, with a special midnight performance on Oct. 29. Tickets are available at the door one hour prior to the 8 p.m. performance. Limited reserved advanced tickets are available online at

Ghost Tours run Oct. 20 to 23 and Oct. 27 to 30. Take the search for spectres further with two Ghost Hunts. Open to skeptics and believers alike, search for what really wanders the halls of the old Courthouse past midnight.

The investigation runs from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m. Oct. 28 and Nov. 5. Cost is $55 per person and includes light refreshments. Reserve a spot for either event at 250-385-4222, ext. 113.

hen Victoria’s Christina Hilborne tells people she uses recycled elements in her modern furniture designs, she often gets a mixed reaction as people struggle to reconcile the idea of combining repurposed materials with modern, contemporary design. After 15 years of creating one-of-akind furniture pieces, and explaining how well these elements work together, Hilborne is launching her first furniture collection to showcase the point. “When people think of furniture that has a ‘recycled’ or a ‘sustainable’ aspect I have found they envision pieces that focus on the recycling aspect first and the design second. This collection shows that incorporating repurposed aspects, such as legs, can make for a wonderfully modern, contemporary piece,” says Hilborne, who has a studio on Bridge Street. Each piece in the Urban Chic collection will be reproduced in limited numbers using repurposed and environmentally friendly materials. The pieces are created from Kirei Board, made from reclaimed sorghum straw and non-toxic adhesives. Furniture
legs, which Christina collects continuously, are reshaped and refinished, creating an integral design element. Pieces are hand-assembled, hand-sanded, hand-finished and signed. Architects, designers and builders integrating the Urban Chic collection into their projects can earn credits toward LEED certification for their projects. Learn more at christinahilborne.com

‘Error-free’ Barbers unbeaten Oak Bay boys atop B.C. volleyball rankings Travis Paterson News staff
As the older half of the Oak Bay Barbers play their final high school volleyball season, there’s a couple of things they’d like to take with them – the Island and provincial titles and anything else they can win along the way. Seniors Alex Swiat“We’re lowski, Ryan Marcellus and Nick Stefa- keeping our eyes nakis have played on provincials, with Grade 11 students Elion Wong, but game in and Leon Young, Lars game out we’re Bornemann and Matt Hampton, since working on the they were brought specifics.” together at Oak Bay – Alex Swiatlowski High four years ago. As juniors, the group won an Island and provincial championship. But, as a triple-A senior team, they were defeated by G.P. Vanier in last year’s Island finals and were knocked out of the provincials by Earl Marriot (Surrey).
Oak Bay hasn’t won the senior provincial volleyball title since 2006. So far, it’s motivated the Barbers to an undefeated season as the top-ranked triple-A team in the province. Along the way they redeemed themselves against Earl Marriott in a September tournament, part of a perfect record. Well, nearly perfect. “We did lose a set in tournament play,” said Swiatlowski, the team captain. “We’re pretty happy with the fact we’ve beaten every triple-A team ranked in the top 10 that we’ve played, plus the top double-A ranked team, Langley Christian (twice).” The Barbers started October by winning a 40-team tournament hosted by University of B.C. Plenty of CIS scouts were there to see the 6-foot-6 height of Swiatlowksi, one of many Barbers likely to play for a university next year. Coming up, Oak Bay will host the AAA Islands on Nov. 18 and 19, a tournament the Barbers are favoured to win easily. Until then, coach Al Carmichael has the team working on the little things, Swiatlowski said. “We’re keeping our eyes on provincials, but game in and game out we’re working on the specifics, like our passing and attacks.” The Barbers can’t afford to look past their

local competition, as they learned during a league game against Claremont earlier this season. “Claremont has talent and they can play, but we played an error-free set, winning 25-1,” Swiatlowski said. “I guess we got distracted and in the second set, we still won 25-15, but we made 14 unforced errors. Eliminating errors has been a big difference this year.” It’s not that the Barbers need a perfect league record to accomplish what they
want. They’ve just been playing as a group for so long, they’ve become accustomed to pushing for more. Some of the guys have been together since Grade 8 at Lansdowne middle school, said Barbers’ assistant coach Rick Wutzke, who coached that team to a city and provincial championship. “Then they came to Oak Bay and got coach Carmichael, who is such a great coach and builds on that success.” sports@vicnews.com

Pets dress up for Halloween fundraiser
Halloween isn’t just for people; it’s for pets too, according to a Victoria business. Woofles Barking Boutique is hosting a Halloween costume contest for pets. The event happens Oct. 29 at 560 Johnson St., in Market Square. Registration is $5 per pet at noon. Proceeds go to Broken Promises Rescue and the HugABull Advocacy and Rescue Society.

Galemys Fabyrday is Kid Friendly
A large financial gift to the University of Victoria’s business school marked a list of milestones. Not only was Sardul S. Gill’s $5-million donation the largest-ever gift to a UVic graduate program and the largest-ever gift from an alumnus to the university, it might also be the biggest gift to any Canadian university from a person of South Asian descent, according to UVic. “Mr. Gill’s generous donation will do a great deal to strengthen graduate-level business education and allow us to reward outstanding academic achievement and foster excellence in teaching,� said UVic President David Turpin. The money will be used to set up a permanent endowment fund that will fuel scholarships and financial awards, as well as international projects, teaching and research. In return, the graduate business program at UVic will be renamed the Sardul S. Gill Graduate School – another first. No similar Canadian institution has been named after a Sikh Indian philanthropist. Gill, who declined interviews, said in a statement: “I made this gift to honour my parents. My

– Sardul Gill father immigrated to Canada from the Punjab in 1906. He laboured all his life and encouraged me to pursue my education at a time when there were significant barriers to people of Indian descent in this country.� As he paid his own way through higher education, Gill worked in some of the same Island sawmills as his father before him. After graduating from Victoria High school, Gill attended Victoria College – UVic’s former incarnation – then received his commerce degree from the University of British Columbia. “I owe the fact that I got this far to my parents,� said Gill, who now lives in the Cedar Hill area of Saanich. “My parents were staunch believers in education, and now I want to honour them and the value they placed on higher education by giving something back to the institution that gave me a start in life. “My greatest hope is that this gift inspires others to give back to their own communities – perhaps just as my father and mother inspired me.� ecardone@vicnews.com
Bus transfer changes rake in revenue Erin McCracken News staff
Attempts to bolster its coffers are working after B.C. Transit made changes to its bus transfer system in the Capital Region. Bus transfers that were being used repeatedly and sold on the street turned out to be a more expensive problem than B.C. Transit originally thought. It estimated it was bilked out of about $200,000 last year due to transfer fraud. But B.C. Transit is reporting almost $500,000 in new revenue after it changed the transfer system on June 27. It brought in new date-stamped paper transfers and scaled the transfer window from 90 to 60 minutes. Transfer use was also restricted to one-way trips. “And remember, we’re only part way through the year,� said B.C. Transit president and CEO, Manuel Achadinha. “We were really able to address a lot of the fare evasion (and) conflicts (between riders and) drivers have gone down.� emccracken@vicnews.com
