Prince Rupert Port Authority Vicepresident of Operations Gary Paulson was busy last week providing information and soliciting feedback on the PRPA’s 2020 Land Use Plan, with three meetings over two days on a plan that could put Prince Rupert near the top of the list when it comes to goods coming into and going out of the country. “In 2020 what this plan envisages is 50 million tonnes moving through Prince Rupert.

That would put us as the number two port in the country behind Vancouver but right up there with Montreal and blowing Halifax right out of the water,� he told Port Edward council on Tuesday night after outlining plans for more bulk and liquid bulk terminals on Ridley Island, a possible vehicle import terminal and phase II of Fairview Terminal. “All of the high value goods will be looking for the fastest, most efficient, most reliable gateway, and that is what we offer.�

On the subject of phase II, Paulson said people shouldn’t be surprised to see the container terminal expanding with another berth closer to town before expanding south toward Ridley Island. “These decisions will all be commercially driven. You can see that the expansion to the north and the creation of another berth would be significantly less expensive than expansion to the south,� he told the Prince Rupert and District Chamber of Commerce on Wednesday afternoon, noting that those plans don’t necessarily require the acquisition of the JS MacMillan property. “You can bet expansion to the north would be happening before expansion to the south because it is cheaper to do....I expect to hear some good things about Fairview Terminal in the near future,� he told Port Edward council.

Spectrum City Dance wrapped up their year with a performance of The Wiz, a show which also highlighted different dancers from the studio. For more from the show, see page 13.

Paulson said people should not expect to be able to continue to access Ridley Island and the beach areas on it. “We wouldn’t be honest if we said that we would be able to continue that...The challenge for Ridley Island is that people get very comfortable accessing it, but every six months or so I get a call from RTI or the grain saying people are on their property.

Once construction starts out there, it becomes a safety concern,� he said, noting that there are plans that could make up for the lost recreational opportunities. “A [crossing] to Lelu Island is something we’ve heard about from the community and at an executive level, and maybe that is the answer and compensation for restricting access to Ridley Island.�

As part of the 2020 Land Use Plan, work is already underway to see what would be needed to allow shipping vessels to access the side of Ridley Island facing Port Edward. “We are doing a study with respect to the entrance to Porpoise Harbour and possible dredging to allow bigger ships to access it.

Right now it is limited to ships that are 187 metres, and we have consultants working to see what would have to happen to allow 220 metre ships that could enable automobile shipping,� he explained.

The draft 2020 Land Use Plan is available on the web at rupertport.com, and the plan is to take feedback through the summer before seeking board approval in September.

The Prince Rupert Regional Community Foundation handed out six grants at its AGM on June 14. Recipients included the Port Edward Historical Society ($1200) for work on the manager’s house at North Pacific Historic Village, accepted by Audrey McDonald; The BC SPCA Prince Rupert ($1300) for a new shed, accepted

by Manager Lindsey Vincent; The Museum of Northern British Columbia ($660) for a new website, accepted by Director Robin Weber; Lester Centre of the Arts ($1,200) to replace the box office ticket system accepted by James Carlson; Prince Rupert Special Events Society ($1000) for additional snowfall lights for the courthouse lawn accepted by board member Barb Gruber and the Regional Archives ($2700) toward shelving to house hundreds of bound volumes of the Prince Rupert Daily News and Evening Empire accepted by Archivist Jean Eiers-Page. Presenting the cheques was foundation board member Karen Basso.

She also said the northern economic area, with its boundary extending from Haida Gwaii to the Yukon border, and from the Alberta border down to Cache Creek, is too large.

In the bottom of the province, she said, there are five economic regions and it’s possible for people to drive to another economic region for work, whereas in the north that’s not possible.

“We’ve received a letter back about six months ago saying that it’s going to come up for review again, and at that time our union will have another campaign going, which I hope council will support us on. In the

meantime, these projects have helped keep money in town, kept people off welfare and given people a more positive attitude seeking work,” Thorkelson said.

Councillor Kathy Bedard echoed Thorkelson’s concerns about the regional boundaries, noting it’s an ongoing battle.

“I still think we should be approaching the Federal Government in regards to employment insurance and how they look at the region. It’s imperative that we look at dividing the regions from the interior and Prince George west, and then north of Prince George,” Bedard said.

Bedard’s suggestion was also endorsed unanimously. Part way through the discussion Thorkelson thanked council for endorsing the union’s request.

“How we look after the poorest in our community always shows what kind of community we are,” she said.

I WILL MARK MY BALLOT ‘YES’ TO SAY ‘NO’ TO THE HST As your MLA and a member of the Of¿cial Opposition, I want you to know exactly why I will vote ‘YES’ to scrap the Liberal government’s HST. • The HST is a massive shift of the tax burden from large corporations onto the backs of average families and small businesses.

• The deceptions of the HST cannot conceal the fact many things that had zero provincial tax are now taxed at 7% more. Items such as travel, haircuts, restaurant meals, sports fees, school supplies, safety equipment and household repairs, including making your home energy ef¿cient or ¿xing a leaky roof.

• Not only will ordinary families pay more with the HST, but it will mean more cuts to vital public services including health care, education, seniors care and other social programs.

My ‘YES’ vote to scrap the HST is a vote for more fairness. More support for ordinary families and small business. More protection for health care and education.

A vote for accountability.

HUMANE AWARENESS‌

Ambassador program seeking volunteers

By Shaun Thomas The Northern View As the cruise season continues into summer, organizers of the Cruise Ambassador program are calling for more volunteers to help leave a lasting impression on those who come off the ships. “Right now I think we hit about 200 people per week. By having another 20 or so people, I think that we can create a better experience for passengers. If we can get that 200 people per week up to 1,000 people per week it will really make an impact on how people remember Prince Rupert,� said Treena Decker at the June 15 Chamber of Commerce luncheon, noting that many passengers list talking to ambassadors as one of the more memorable parts of their visit. “All of us have an experience and a story about why we are here, and for most of us it is because we love it here. We need to share those stories and experiences with

our visitors.�

To help facilitate more volunteers for the program, which is moving from a group organized

by Tourism Prince Rupert to one run by the volunteers themselves, a meeting is set at Atlin Terminal tonight at seven p.m to nine p.m.

And while the program is one that is being championed by the Prince Rupert Cruise Ship Task Force, Chamber of Commerce president Chad Cunningham said it is one that is important for the community to develop its cruise product. “We have three to four ships per day just north of here [in Ketchikan] so it is like we have a major highway going right past our town, but we have no off-ramp for them to come into town...It really is going to take a community effort to make this happen,� he said.

OPINION

MY VIEW…

The impact of game seven in Rupert...

It is amazing the impact that a game of hockey can have.

I could go on at length about the morons who decided to trash downtown Vancouver after the Canucks were shutout in game seven of the Stanley Cup Finals, about how it wasn’t just a small group of hooligans that caused the carnage but how anyone who stayed downtown after the game was responsible by cheering on the aforementioned morons and about how any repercussions that come their way are well deserved. But I think enough has been said about that in the mainstream media, the social networks, the coffee shops and more.

No, what I’m talking about is the impact game seven of the Stanley Cup championships had on two meetings that should have been of significant importance to people on the North Coast but instead turned into people in business-attire killing some time until the advertised meeting time came to an end.

The mere mention of the Enbridge Northern Gateway gets the blood of many in the region boiling and that night a representative from the Joint Review Panel were at the North Coast Convention Centre to answer questions and provide information about how people can have their voices heard in the formal process. But there was nobody there...

Across the parking lot at the Crest Hotel the Prince Rupert Port Authority was soliciting feedback on a development plan that includes things such as cutting off access to Ridley

Island, expanding Fairview Terminal closer to town and building enough facilities to make Prince Rupert the second largest port in the country behind only Vancouver. It’s a great presentation looking at the future of the community, but aside from a handful of people, the room was basically empty.

That these meetings, which were planned for months before the playoffs began, were held on the same night as the Canucks tried to bring home the Stanley Cup is unfortunate.

I just hope it’s not a sign that sports championships trump the future of the region.

~ Shaun Thomas

Paint Prince Rupert leads a resurgence in community pride I really can’t say enough good things about the Paint Prince Rupert initiative.

People are talking about it everywhere I go, from the grocery store to chance meetings on the street. When I stopped on Sunday to chat with Glen Saunders outside Herby’s, vehicles slowed down to call out thanks and encouragement.

About 20 volunteers came out on Saturday and Sunday to paint Herby’s, McLean & Rudderham, and The Electrician.

“We met our goal of three buildings this weekend,” Glen says, “and big kudos to the citizens who came out to help. Next Saturday we’re doing it again, again hoping for two or three buildings. Next Sunday is also the Communities in Bloom cleanup, so however you want to volunteer, just come out and volunteer. Let’s just do whatever it takes.”

Back in February Glen was one of a group invited to speak at a Chamber of Commerce event. “I just talked about the value of paint,” Glen says. “The original intention was to encourage people, but Kathy Bedard from Hecate Strait was there and mentioned that it might be an appropriate project for one of

her programs, so they called Talking tourism donation, I’d strongly recommend that they donate money toward the me afterwards and asked me Moose roof. They’ve been working to come and pitch it to them. for years, and they’ve raised over It just grew from there, starting $11,000, but they need closer to with about ten buildings on the $30,000. It’s a great community hall list.” in the middle of downtown, let’s get Working with Hecate Strait a roof for them.”

Employment Development “Paint Prince Rupert is a fantastic Society, Glen led a project BRUCE WISHART initiative,” says Jason Scherr, first that began with King Koin vice-president of the Chamber of Laundry, then JVA Family Entertainment and the Moose Hall. That Commerce.

“As a community we need to encourage created the buzz in town that allowed for the and thank everybody who participated. If volunteer effort this past weekend.

“It’s important to know that all of the you like what a business has done, go in and building owners are paying for their own tell them that you like it.”

Glen echoes this sentiment of supplies,” Glen says.

“Our only rule was that they had to pick encouragement: “We need to plant the seed. a brighter colour. Sharon Rothwell at Rona We can’t paint every building in town, but came up with the original palette, with the we can show the way and encourage it.” idea to make the buildings pop and give each That was also the intent for a different business more personality.” group that came together over the last month.

Most of what is needed is for people to Tourism Prince Rupert, the Highliner, Inn on come out and volunteer. the Harbour, Coast Prince Rupert, and The “If people like what we’re doing,” Electrician decided to see what they could Glen says, “and they want to make a cash do to tidy up the block encompassed by the

three hotels – the first impression for arriving air passengers. When the Paint Prince Rupert project came in to paint the Moose Hall and The Electrician this made a dramatic difference, of course, but The Electrician has also now cleared the brush from the lot across the street, and several more improvements are already underway.

“The Paint Prince Rupert project has made a huge improvement,” says Alex Kempenaar, general manager at the Highliner.

“The work The Electrician did made a huge improvement. So now the work that we’re doing on our own building this summer becomes part of a larger initiative, and the value of that work is multiplied for both us and our neighbors.”

“It’s about colour, and pride,” says Glen, “but more than anything it’s about taking care of neighborhoods. If you have a vacant building next door, talk to the owner. Wash the windows when you wash yours. Put in a window display for your store. This isn’t for the tourists. This is for us.”

Still, as I’ve written here before, a nice place to live is always a nice place to visit.

Celebrate Multiculturalism Day in Rupert this Sunday

By Martina Perry The Northern View This Sunday people living in Prince Rupert will have the opportunity to celebrate the region’s multicultural diversity and richness when on June 26 the North Coast Immigrant and Multicultural Service Society will be hosting

Diversity Day at the Rupert Square Mall in celebration of Canadian Multiculturalism Day. Canadian Multiculturalism Day, which is held every June 27, gives Canadians a chance to celebrate the diversity of the country, and to appreciate the contributions of the variety of multicultural groups and communities in our

society. The day of recognition was first established in 2002 and was first celebrated on June 27, 2003.

Canadian Multiculturalism Day is one of four “Celebrate Canada Days”, the other being National Aboriginal Day, St. Jean Baptise Day and Canada Day. To coincide with Canadian Multiculturalism Day, the North

Coast Immigrant and Multicultural Service Society, a non-profit organization with a mission to join with the community to celebrate the different cultures in the region, and to provide access to services to immigrants, will be hosting a gather in the Rupert Square Mall, on the upper level from two to four pm.

The gathering will include music, food, socializing and guest speakers. Jane Dickson from the Affiliation of Multicultural Societies and Service Agencies of BC and Sasa Loggin from the Skeena Diversity Society will be the speaking, and will discussing multiculturism and immigration.

Whist Results: Ladies’ 1st-Marj L., 2nd-Anne

Editor: I am writing in regards to your June 8 article “Prince Rupert hospital looking ahead to hiring more nurses locally”.

I would agree that it is difficult for Northern Health to entice new graduates to move to Prince Rupert for work, but I don’t think weather is the issue. Currently new nursing graduates are being offered only casual work. As casuals, they are called in when a regular employee is off. Work is offered inconsistently, often on very short notice.

This situation presents many challenges for new grads, who need

steady, reliable work to consolidate their newly-learned knowledge and skills. As well, casual work fails to provide consistent pay, making it difficult for students with loans to repay.

Perhaps the creation of more regular positions would attract local nurses, and also those from outside the region, allow new graduates steady work, alleviate workload, and make it economically viable for nurses to stay, work, and live in the community.

◆ CANCER STUDY

Northern ssessment centre open for baseline health info

By Teresa Mallam Black Press

AT YOUR SERVICE

It may be a long time coming.

However researchers hope The BC Generations Project will one day give them answers and help them learn more about how environment, lifestyle and genetic factors contribute to cancer and chronic diseases.

A temporary assessment clinic for the project opened in Prince George this month for participants who want to help by providing their health information and biospecimens for cancer studies.

They will also learn about their own health.

“In B.C. our goal is to have 40,000 people take part,” said Dr. John Spinelli, BC Cancer Agency’s head of cancer control research. “The health information and biological samples will be compiled to give us a large pool from which to answer questions.

You need certain numbers in order to answer questions, so you need to start with a large group. Results from these studies will be a critical to guide future disease prevention programs.“ BC is one of five provinces

taking part in the national Canadian Partnership for Tomorrow Project.

Spinelli said the information provided is kept anonymous and participation in the project can have benefits.

“The national goal is to have 300,000 Canadian adults in the research project which is the largest of its kind in the country. This is an opportunity for us – our generation – to help reduce the occurrence of cancer and chronic disease in the future. I think that resonates with people.”

Participants will learn about their own health habits (how long do they

spend sitting, not exercising, each day) and indicators such as blood pressure, weight, bone density and body fat.

“We chose an age range of 35 to 69 for participants because we will be following them up for the next 25 years. It would take longer (for answers) with a younger group. The information given is anonymous.”

BC Cancer Foundation has partnered with the agency on the project.

“As the largest funder of cancer research in the province, we are proud to support this great initiative,” said BC Cancer

◆ ENBRIDGE NORTHERN GATEWAY

Joint Review Panel provides details on how to have a say

By Alan S. Hale The Northern View The allure of game seven of the Stanley Cup finals kept almost everyone in Prince Rupert away from the Enbridge Northern Gateway public information meeting held the same night at the North Coast Convention Centre.

Representatives of the Joint Review Panel, which is holding hearing on controversial Enbridge Northern Gateway project, held the event in order to explain to Prince Rupert residents about the hearing process and how they can become involved and let the panel know what their views on the project are.

Instead, the meeting amounted to not much more than government employees standing in front of booths in an empty room.

“I’ve actually been thinking about my involvement; whether I’ll be a making an oral statement or applying for intervener status,” says local MLA Gary Coons, one of the few people to turn up.

According to the panel’s representatives, there are three different ways that individual people and organizations can get their views on the pipeline to be

heard and considered by the three panel members.

The first, and the most hassle-free option is to send a letter of comment to the panel.

The letters don’t have to be anything more complicated than just someone’s thoughts and opinions on the proposed pipeline project.

According to the panel’s representatives, every letter sent to them will be read by all the panel members before they give their recommendations to the Federal Government. All letters need to be mailed, faxed or e-mailed to the panel before March 13, 2012.

The second option is to give a 10-minute oral statement to the panelists in person at one of the public hearings that will be taking place in communities around the province. In an oral statement participants are expected to explain their stake in the issue and provide any supporting information along with their statement.

Having participated in the Historica-Dominion Battlefields Tour last summer, I know how meaningful it is to visit these places that are sacred to the memory of Canadians,â€? explained the CHSS teacher and librarian in an information sheet to the board. “To stand there, to see, to touch‌ it gives one an emotional connection to our past.â€?

Sawka is the partner in this potential field trip, and would be one of the other chaperones on the trip. Sawka is also very passionate with Canadian history, teaching the subject at PRSS for many years. Sawka hopes that

this trip would inspire patriotism in students and make them feel a sense of connection with their community. Together, Rabel and Sawka believe that this trip would be an unforgettable experience for the students involved.

The estimated cost per student will be $3,505. That fee would cover travel, tours, hotels, breakfast and dinner. All other costs, such as lunch, insurance, incidentals and spending money would be the responsibility of the students.

Students wishing to be part of the field trip would also be required to participate in fund raising activities.

Additionally, the school board may possibly be funding some of the trip, although it is too early to say how much that may be.

PRINCE RUPERT - The City of Prince Rupert will have to wait a little longer for its day in court, as the BC Supreme Court has granted Sun Wave Forest Productsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; request to postpone any hearings on the matter until the fall.

The hearing on the case, which has to do with Sun Wave contesting ownership of the site and access to the equipment after its bid to buy the land back through a tax sale was rejected, is now set for October 31, 2011.

The case was originally to go to trial on June 16 and 17 for the first court action and June 22 and 23 for the second.

But Sun Wave requested more time and more documents related to the tax sale from the City in a June 7 filing.

The court agreed with Sun Wave and granted the extension on June 8.

Prince Rupert mayor Jack Mussallem said he was hoping for a more expedient conclusion to a legal battle that has been going on since last January. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are disappointed that

the cases have been delayed. The people of Prince Rupert deserve some closure and we hoped to achieve that by setting down the trials,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;However, we have a court order setting a firm date now, so there should be no further delays.

We look forward to bringing an end to the litigation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the meantime, we will continue to try to reduce our costs, and to work in a positive and constructive manner towards a successful outcome for Watson Island,â&#x20AC;? Mussallem continued.

Sun Wave spokesperson Bill Belsey said the delay will give their lawyers time to review the offer information they had requested from the City, once it is forwarded on, and that they will also continue to work for an outof-court resolution. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This delay will allow, hopefully, more mediation on the matter,â&#x20AC;? Belsey said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have requested to recommence mediation, but the City has denied that request. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is still not our desire to go through the courts, as it is costly to everyone involved,â&#x20AC;? he added.

By Martina Perry The Northern View Over the weekend dancers from Spectrum City Dance took to the stage to present their year-end performance over two days.

The presentations both began with a performance of the 1978 movie “The Wiz”, which is an adaptation of the popular story “The Wizard of Oz”.

Over 50 dancers of all ages and dancing styles took the stage. The set was impressive and consisted of notable Martina Perry photos construction, smoke As well as The Wiz machines, a light strobe itself, the Spectrum and other decorative City Dance year-end show highlighted the items.

After the feature talents of individual presentation, there dancers. were a number of different dance styles displayed over the two days, as both day’s performances had different routines performed.

Some of Sunday’s dance routines included the popular song “Bonjour” from Disney movie “Beauty and the Beast”, and routine that included over 20 young dancers. “Bonjour” received the top spot in the variety group twelve and under section of the BC Annual Dance Competition held last month in Prince Rupert.

Sherrie Scherger and Ella Ferland’s jazz routine, “Strut” once again impressed audiences.

The routine has received top places at various competitions.

Young tap dance students performed “Cotton Eyed Joe” routine, which was choreographed by Carol Murphy that received top spots in various competitions, including the BC Annual Dance Competition. Other tap routines included “Itty Bitty Pretty One” choreographed once again

Pham was named the Senior Performer of the Year at the BC Annual Dance Competition last month, and will be traveling to Australia this summer to compete against dancers from a number of different countries including Australia, New Zealand, and the United States.

Spectrum is also the home of Emily Jack, who was named the Junior Performer of the Year at the BC Annual Dance Competition. Jack was featured in a number of routines in the two performances.

◆ COAL DISPUTE

LOCAL SPORTS HEROES…

Ridley Terminals and Suncor are headed to arbitration the issue is at presently. Suncor expanded the arbitration to include “Suncor’s entitlement to store cargo in the amounts which exceed its contractual entitlement” and “RTI’s refusal to accept frozen cargo”, but now the issue is back before the courts due to an inability to agree upon arbitrators.

Suncor nominated Murray Clemens and RTI appointed Tom Braidwood as its nominee, while Murray Smith was appointed chair.

However, in a June 7 filing, RTI raised concerns about Clemens’ “independence and impartiality” in the arbitration based on past dealings in which “the position taken by Mr. Clemens was adverse to the interests of RTI and supportive of another customer of RTI in a dispute over an arbitration arising out of a Terminal Services Agreement”.

The company requested an order “revoking [Suncor’s] nominee as arbitrator, but on June 13 the court dismissed that request.

By Shaun Thomas The Northern View After a lengthy period of inactivity, the court case involving Suncor Energy Inc. and Ridley Terminals has picked up again as the two sides proceed to arbitration over more than initially discussed.

On January 17 Suncor Energy Inc. took Ridley Terminals Inc. to court over RTI’s statement that it would no longer accept coal from Suncor without an anti-freezing agent in it, with the court ruling on February 2 that Ridley Terminals would be legally able to decline shipments from Suncor beginning on February 8. According to Court Services, that is the last filing until May 31, 2011 but the dispute between the two companies continued in the background.

The 2007 operating agreement indicates that disputes between the two parties will be determined by arbitration, which is where

Volunteers by their nature are not rewarded - they’ll never go home with an award for the work they’ve done, only the gratefulness of the community and a feeling of gratitude. On June 14 Sport BC’s Community Sport Hero Awards aimed to change that by holding a night of recognition for the outstanding volunteers in Prince Rupert. An awards ceremony held by Sport BC awarded exceptional sport volunteers that have been in service for decades. John Mullin, Troy O’Toole, Mel Bishop, Gene and Christine Storey, Karen Myers, Don Seidel, and Fred Beil were all honored at a banquet held at the Coast Hotel.

By Cst. Laura Lechky Prince Rupert RCMP In the early morning hours of June 11, 2011 a female was walking home from the bar with an acquaintance in the area of Summit Avenue. The acquaintance sexually assaulted the female and was only stoped when an unknown passer buyer realized the act was not consensual. An altercation broke out between the suspect and the passer buyer. Police are looking to speak with the unknown hero to this female. Please contact Cst. FREDHEIM at the Prince Rupert RCMP Detachment at 250-6270700.

The Sunday race had an additional perk. After the Show & Shine at Canadian Tire there was a cruise up to the track and the cars lined up on the track as spectators and racers were invited out to check out the rides. The TDRA handed out plaques for a winner and a runner up. A great Show, special thanks to all of the Volunteers who worked hard to make it
