City council has decided to scrap another question that would have been put to voters in the upcoming municipal election. At their meeting on Monday, councillors decided against asking Rupertites if they were in favour of increasing property taxes. By cancelling the plebiscite on raising property taxes up to 4.5 per cent to completely reconstruct some of the roads over the next few years the councillors say that this doesn’t mean that the roads don’t need it. The problem is that there is so much infrastructure work to be done in Prince Rupert. The city’s infrastructure was neglected for many years when the City hit the slump that it is now trying to climb back out of. There is so much work to do that the next council will have to figure out what to address first. “We’ve got $90-million worth of infrastructure deficit in our city. And as much as I would like to see road reconstruction – and I’m not saying that’s not where the next council will want to go – it was made clear to us that if you had to pick-andchoose, water when you turn on your tap might be a little more important to people than if a road has a pothole,” says councillor Anna Ashley. During an infrastructure workshop, councillors where told that some serious attention needed to be paid to

◆ INCREASING TONNAGE
Ridley Terminals signs two new long-term agreements By Shaun Thomas The Northern View On October 27 Ridley Terminals signed two new long term shipping agreements that will bring millions of tonnes of coal through Prince Rupert every year. The first was with Coalspur Mines Ltd. and will include the company shipping six million tonnes per year through Prince Rupert, with an option for an additional 2.5 million tonnes per year. The agreement begins in January, 2015 and is for a term of 14 years with an option for an additional
seven years. It is for export of thermal coal from Coalspur’s Vista Coal Project. “We are exceptionally pleased to have concluded this landmark agreement. It represents a major milestone in the development of Vista as it secures port allocation for the majority of the expected production until 2035. The agreement provides Coalspur committed access to the thermal coal markets in Asia and significantly derisks the development of Vista as it advances towards the construction phase,” said company CEO Gene Wusaty in a statement. The other agreement is with Hillsborough Resources Ltd.
This agreement establishes a new relationship between the company and Ridley Terminals that covers from now until December 31, 2021, with an optional two year extension. Hilsborough is currently looking to expand production in northeast BC, while Ridley Terminals is in the midst of expanding capacity. “This agreement means communities in Northeast BC, which support the coal mining industry, can plan a future knowing Hillsborough has the terminal capacity it will need,” said RTI chair Bud Smith.

MP calls bill to destroy gun registry data “stupid” By Shaun Thomas The Northern View Skeena - Bulkley Valley MP and NDP leadership candidate Nathan Cullen lashed out at the bill to end the gun registry put forward by the Conservative government last Tuesday, in particular the idea of destroying the records related to it. “For the life of me I can’t understand why they did that. It seems ignorant and spiteful. Who burns records? Canada has spent $2 billion on the gun registry and their idea is
to put a torch to all that...Destroying the records won’t get the $2 billion back,” he said. “There are big issues with the registry, but burning the records is just spiteful. It’s just stupid.” Federal Public Safety Minister Vic Toews says the records would be destroyed partly so that provincial governments would have to create their registry from scratch and the current registry couldn’t be brought back by future federal governments and due to privacy concerns. “They have to change this
LOOKING TO THE FUTURE…
legislation. It actually undermines the Privacy Act. You can’t just destroy government records because it is politically beneficial,” said Cullen. According to numbers from CBC, RCMP access the registry database 17,402 times per day, with over six million queries from September 30, 2010 to September 30, 2011. “The RCMP have said they were fine with scrapping the registry and asked if the records could be transferred and they could work with it. You would think the government would be helpful since they are concerned about the
safety of our men and women in uniform, but apparently they don’t care,” said Cullen.

take the downloading from a government organization and pay their taxes for them,” Bedard told council. Prince Rupert has several abandoned schools all over town that have had to be shut down after the city’s population decreased. Many have been laying vacant for several years, but the School District had to close another one as recently as this year when Westview Elementary was forced to close its doors for the last time. The school board has been trying find a solution for the problem and is seeking permission from the Provincial Government to sell the Westview, Kanata and Seal Cove elementary schools and if one can be sold, the money could be used to demolish the other two buildings. The school board only learned that they could do this last month at the Union of BC Municipalities conference. But in Bedard’s opinion it seems, in the meantime the school board should be finding uses for them instead of paying for rental properties, like the one Pacific Coast School is housed in at the Ocean Centre Mall, and leaving the empty buildings to become eyesores.

The property in question is the downtown location of the Pacific Coast School, a alternative learning centre for students who didn’t do very well in the traditional high school setting. The school provides a drastically different teaching model and courses to help their students complete their high school educations. “This isn’t about the value of the school because I truly believe they do good work there. What I have a difficulty with is one government agency paying the taxes for another one. I would prefer that the school district, for this year at least, pay the $7,800 in taxes,” said Bedard.
But paying over $7,000 in taxes just to be open will take a sizeable portion out of the school’s operating funds, which would otherwise be used to help educate the high school students who go there. Asking for a tax exemption for Pacific Coast is not new either, since the city has granted it one in previous years. “That’s a huge chunk that would have come right out of the classroom if we had to come up with it,” said board chair, Tina Last. Last says there are two main reasons why the school board decided not to put the alternate school in one of the empty buildings. The first is that the school district doesn’t think it makes much sense to reopen an entire school building to teach only 100 students. The second reason is that the students who go to Pacific Coast for their own reasons did not succeed in the regular high school system. The point of the Pacific Coast School is to provide a different teaching model than regular high school, and says it has been proven that having it in a non-traditional setting like a storefront is crucial to the program’s success. “It was never an option but it was discussed at the board table. But we were quickly reminded that part of the success of this program is that it’s not in a school,” said Last.

OPINION
MY VIEW…
Why would we want to sell CityWest?? It seems that every time an election comes around, the issue of CityWest pops up and how the City should completely sell off that asset and get out of the telecommunications business. This year is no different. And every time someone brings that idea up to me, I can’t help but personally think what a horrible idea it is. Let’s take a quick pro/con look at it, based on how I see the situation. On the pro-side, the money from selling CityWest could be used to pay off debt or invest in infrastructure. As well Prince Rupert may more so have access to the technology that CityWest has to acquire while other national brands roll it out (the new iPhone, 4G wireless networks, that kind of thing). And, it could be argued, that selling CityWest may open a more competitive telecommunications market. Those, along with the City getting out of the telecommunication business, are the arguments I’ve heard for selling CityWest. Now if CityWest were sold to a Bell or a Telus or a Rogers, here’s what I see happening. The executives who live in town - like the presidents and vice-presidents - would be let go as any company buying CityWest would have its own management team in some skyscraper somewhere. Likewise, the accounting department and finance department would be gone and with it those jobs as well. The customer service reps would be laid off too, as the larger companies provide those services off-site at a large call centre somewhere. They certainly wouldn’t need the large building on Third Ave, as a simple storefront would suffice. On the financial side
of things, the City would be out about $1 million per year coming from the company, which if lost would require a high tax increase to cover. So the trade off is a one-time infusion of cash and more convenient new technology against dozens upon dozens of high-paying jobs being filled by people who live in and
spend money in our community. Not much of a choice there if you ask me... So when people ask why the City hasn’t sold CityWest, my answer is ‘why would they?’ Why put dozens of people out on the street in a tough economy simply so people can browse or text faster?

New mobile application helps visitors to the North Coast The theme of the annual Tourism Industry Conference last week was once again online marketing. There was a full day workshop on the subject prior to the conference. There was also a session on key social media trends in the tourism industry, a good overview of how travelers are using social media and how destinations can capitalize on the tools available to them, and another on mobile computing and the digital mapping revolution, about how travelers are using their smart phones while traveling. Indeed, though it might not have happened yet, the day will come when online marketing will be the only form of marketing. Certainly this day has drawn closer in the North, with a new mobile application launched last month by the Northern BC Tourism Association. The project started along the road to reality with a partnership between Tourism Prince Rupert, Tourism Dawson Creek, Tourism Prince George, Tourism Smithers, and Kermodei Tourism in Terrace. Aware that there were certain constraints on
other platforms. provincial funding to the To quote Clint Fraser, Strategic northern tourism region, Talking tourism Planning and Marketing, Northern these communities wanted to BC Tourism, “Travelers are find a way to assist the region becoming more technologically in developing marketing savvy and increasingly reliant on tools specific to northern the information they access from needs.

You see it everywhere, and when the basics of what to do, where to eat, and I’m in unfamiliar places I do it myself. And it where to stay. Not only that, it also uses the might not be relevant in Prince Rupert, but in Smartphones built-in GPS function to tell larger centres, or when traveling withing the users what is nearby, and even directs them region, the app will also be useful for finding there. The Northern BC app is available on new restaurants and activities. three platforms, iPhone, iPad and Android, “More than ever, it is important to meet and a mobile website acts as a catchall for travelers needs whenever and wherever
they are” says Northern BC Tourism CEO, Anthony Everett. “This app is one example of how Northern BC Tourism is staying at the forefront of tourism marketing, and providing valuable tools for visitors to our region.” The app is now available for free download on iTunes and the Android Market. The new Northern BC app is just one example of how Tourism Prince Rupert is working with our partners in developing new ways of using online marketing. We’re working to stay current with social media, and building that audience. We’re still growing into the technology incorporated in the new TPR website launched last year, such as by adding more features to listings for individual members. It will still take some time for online marketing to completely replace traditional marketing, especially given the gaps in mobile service in northern BC, but these are the services that customers now demand.

Letters to the Editor Recycling More pedstrian concerns an issue for voter Editor: The ad in The Northern View of October 12th, 2011 regarding Mayor Mussalem’s record caught my attention. Two points – the past year I have attended almost every meeting of the SQRD Board open to the public, and have noted on each occasion, at least 80 per cent of the Agenda has dealt with matters on Haida Gwaii and have seldom heard our present Mayor as Vice Chair of the Board, express an opinion on either Haida Gwaii or the Mainland operation. The financial picture at Regional Recycling is improving due to increased volume of material from Terrace, better product prices in the latter part of 2010 and this year, and the continued support from local recyclers despite the inconvenience of the reduced Saturday hours. After one year, our dedicated recyclers have still not received the much requested return of reasonable hours on Saturday – working families day to recycle. The cost would be very minimal, less than 1 per cent of the total 2010 budget and would really benefit our local recycling families who are the tax payers and voters of Prince Rupert. Jean Martin

◆ MUNICIPAL ELECTION
Meet the candidates for Prince Rupert city councillor The Prince Rupert Northern View offered all the candidates for council the opportunity to submit a profile for publication. They are alphabetically by last name. Anna Ashley I would like to thank you for your support over the last term. It has been a privilege and an honour to represent our community on council over the last 3 years. It has been a time filled with big learning curves, countless opportunities for growth and for gaining a new appreciation for the wonderful community we live in. During this time, I have worked for openness, transparency and accountability on council; however there is still much work to do. I remain committed to getting the job done. If re-elected to Council, I will continue working towards openness, transparency and accountability. I am committed to: - working with Council to rethink how we do things to better serve the needs of our community; - developing a comprehensive plan with funding options to replace our aging infrastructure; - working with stakeholders to rejuvenate our local economy – ensuring that we remain open for business. Thanks to your dedication and resilience, our community is getting stronger every day. Like you, I believe in our potential and our future. The road will not be easy, but with determination we can get there. Our future prosperity depends on new thinking -- to “think outside the box” and in engaging our
entire community. With a strong team on Council, there is much that we can achieve by working together with our community. One thing that I have learned is that good governance requires teamwork and the ability to work together towards a common goal. We need people at the council table that share your priorities. We need a strong team, dedicated to looking at things with new eyes and fresh perspectives and with a willingness to look for creative solutions. On Nov. 19th I ask for your support to send me back to the table to continue working on these goals, so I can put my experience to work for you. Together we will build a brighter future. To find out more go to: www.annaashley. com. Judy CarlickPearson Born in Prince Rupert in 1977 and lived a majority of my life here except when I went away for school and to play basketball. Born to Sandra Carlick (Leighton) and Charlie Carlick, with one sibling Roberta whom were all my earliest role models. I grew up playing all sports and being involved in a majority of community events. I thoroughly enjoyed my childhood in Prince Rupert, the weather was great, the industries were vibrant, and more than anything the city was alive. I have always been attached to Prince Rupert and always said that I would retire here. I grew up knowing so many wonderful people from here, friends, coaches, mentors and teachers. I have learnt so much from all of the great people in this town and just became very attached to community. I was fortunate to be able to move
away for school and experience the “city life” and get an education, but I was ready to move home. I believe that Prince Rupert can get back to that “vibrant” stature. I realize that we can’t rely on the same industries that once made our city flourish however, we have a new start. We have so much potential for improvement and even though we have to build a new start for ourselves, we can do this together. As a city council candidate, I can’t promise you anything but honesty, transparency, hard work and diligence. I have no hidden agendas and I am not afraid to speak up for what I believe in. “I genuinely, would just like our city to shine again and would love to see people being optimistic about our future”. I am motivated to help make a change and work collectively to do what is best for the citizens of Prince Rupert. I am not easily influenced and don’t make decisions without doing adequate research. I have the team skills, people skills, education, experience and desire of an effective leader and city councillor. “I believe in the people, our city and our future. Together we can make this happen”. Gina Garon I am seeking reelection for a second term on City Council. Over the last three years I have acquired considerable amounts of knowledge and experience in regards to how local government works and operates. I have sat as a Board Member on Tourism Prince Rupert, Community Futures of the Pacific Northwest and as an Alternate on the Skeena Queen Charlotte Regional District. Previous to being on Council I have

served as a Board Member on The Prince Rupert and District Chamber of Commerce and was Chair of the Parking Task Force Committee. City Council has huge challenges ahead and I am prepared to face those challenges. Through community engagement and reaching out to our neighbors we can find ways to protect and preserve our current services and infrastructure needs. It is important to have experienced councilors on council to effectively deal with these challenges. I am very concerned about our infrastructure deficit. .If we are to move forward and attract new industry and investment we need to preserve what services we currently have. I will be fully engaged and committed to working hard to find solutions. I believe that our citizens are our assets. I would like to find ways to encourage our young people to move back to Prince Rupert, settle down and raise their families here. There is a light at the end of the tunnel and hopefully in the new year we will see the economy turn around. I would like to take a holistic approach to the way we do things. We need to look at the whole picture and not just focus on one area. I would like to see Council go back to the committee system where councilors sit on committees such as the recreation, health and public works committees. I have deep roots in the community, my family has been here since 1907. I was born and raised here and have raised my family here. It has been an honour and a privilege to sit on council for the last three years. And I would be most honoured to be reelected.

Meet the candidates for Prince Rupert council continued Christo Holmes I’m a long time resident, the owner of a local business since 1991,co-founder of the Northcoast Performers Society (mostly unplugged), and the Past Chairperson of the Board of Variance. I’m running for Council because I want to be part of the team that will help transition our city into the next phase of growth as we become a recognized viable world seaport...We need well-informed decision makers as we deal with fiscal and growth. Issues...and alas the next few years will still be ‘’all about the money’’ as we apportion city revenues on a priority basis, but I have confidence that new businesses and innovative citizens will create higher tax revenues as well as increased demand for local goods and services.. The challenges ahead form the basis of my campaign ...lets focus on two such challenges. Number one is infrastructure...A city does not exist without infrastructure - fresh water supply,sewer and garbage collection, transportation, fire protection and police services ,etc...And we should recognize that city workers and public works/engineering staff have done an admirable job with infrastructure needs and emergencies given the lack of funds available to them. A city’s most important mandate is to maintain, upgrade and build necessary infrastructure and since cities across North America have been abandoned by senior levels of government it appears we’re on our own...able, even- tempered, level-headed and well-informed leadership is paramount as we face this challenge.. Challenge 2 will be about Balance...the sound and smell of money was prevalent when I first arrived...the stink of fish plants, the environmental horror that was the pulp mill circa 1970’s,the clanking of railyards, the irritable drone of dryer fans from the grain elevator..that was also the smell and sound of good-paying JOBS...now society has a new sensibility to the impact of industry and we need pragmatic approaches as we welcome new businesses.. Friends, though I would welcome their support, please understand that I haven’t any special interest groups or voting blocs working behind the scenes to assure my election; whether they be cultural, political, union ,business or environmental. I’m running as a concerned citizen, and I want YOUR vote... I’m always available for questions or discussion at 6277970 or christoholmes@hotmail.com Nelson Kinney Prince Rupert has been my home since 1957. I had the privilege to have taught gymnastics and diving, as well as being a lifeguard for the outdoor pool in the earlier years. I was the founding member of the Prince Rupert Figure Skating Club. I am the proud father of a beautiful daughter, Candice, who resides in Calgary with her husband, and am looking forward to being a grandfather in the very near future. I currently own my own salon which I have had for many years, and during that time I have been very active in the business community. My committee activities include the Performing Arts Centre Society Board, the Heritage committee and the Regional Hospital committee. I was first elected to Council in November, 2002. My focus on Council is on Seniors, Youth and Industry. I strongly believe and am committed to building strong relationships with First Nations and neighbouring communities so Prince Rupert can continue to support and offer services to the Northwest region. I continue to work tirelessly as a community ambassador, always eager to participate in local events, both as a resident, and as a Council representative. I will continue to be dedicated to promoting our City, and speaking for all citizens, with a special interest in ensuring a good quality of life for seniors and youth. I have gained much knowledge and experience in the last three terms on Council and I “thank” the citizens of Prince Rupert for their support and allowing me to serve them. I am committed and dedicated to listening to the concerns of the people of Prince Rupert. I am approachable, accountable
and affordable. I am looking forward to serving the people as their representative on council for the next three years. I am committed to making sure the voice of every citizen is heard and represented on council, now and in the future. I am dedicated to making our community a place where all citizens are heard. James Kirk James Kirk is a long-time resident of Prince Rupert and started his working career in industrial marine supply in the ‘60s and owned Port Edward Marine supply for nine years in the ‘80s. When not running his own business Kirk worked in various sales venues in marine and industrial supply and also ad sales at The Daily News. Outside his work life, Kirk has held executive positions in the Elks, Royal Canadian Legion, and is also a current member of the kinsman. He also was a volunteer firefighter from early ‘60s to mid ‘70s. Kirk was moved to run for council because his inability to find enough information on various city issues and concerns to the citizens of Prince Rupert. Issues of concern: - Keeping Taxes down for overburdened taxpayers - Watson Island - Fire Department (should we consider return to volunteers) - CityWest (should the city continue to operate or sell) - Alaska Ferry - Airport If elected Kirk looks forward to serving the citizens of Prince Rupert and serving with the other councilors in an open and transparent manner. Conrad Lewis I am running for the position of Councillor for the City of Prince Rupert. I am of Gitxaala (Kitkatla) descent. My parents are Reverends Samuel and Bertha Lewis. Our family was raised in Port Edward. I married June S (Pahl) Lewis in 1982 and moved to Prince Rupert. We have 5 Children, Basil, Constance, Kristian, June and Patricia. We also have 2 Grandsons Matthew and Tristan. I have 35 years in the Fishing Industry and in the UFAWUCAW. I am an active, long time, Shop Steward and current General Executive Board member. I was employed by the T Buck Suzuki Foundation as a First Nation Liaison and Outreach worker and headed up a successful campaign against Fish Farms in our region. I lobbied and “won” the battle against E.I. over the term “Volunteerism”. I am a past recipient of the Chamber of Commerce “Volunteer of the Year” award. I have Strong inter-personal skills; I am Politically cognizant with good Organizational skills. Respectful, resourceful and Transparent. Intrepid, yet at the same time, very respectful of the needs and wishes of others. These skills have enabled me to effectively “challenge” a wide variety of Political, Educational, Social, Economic, Environmental and organizational concerns. Most people know me as a basketball organizer; others know me as an effective union rep/negotiator and others know me as an environmentalist. However you may know me, know this: my motivation, in all that I’ve done, and all that I do, is a passion for our Youth and their Families. On Election Day, with your support, I hope to be your Councillor. As Councillor I will bring a new perspective and be approachable. I will continue to use my skills to effectively address concerns such as: Infrastructure, Quality of life and Social/Economic Development for our community. Organizing Recreational activities for our youth will, in turn, produce healthy young adults. Advocating financial stability and pursuing economic development through “New Work Opportunities” will, in turn, produce a stable family environment. Stable family environments will produce a healthy vibrant community. Healthy vibrant communities will produce leaders of tomorrow. Gabe McLean I am Gabriel McLean, I am a 35 year resident of Prince Rupert. I was employed by the Prince Rupert Airport Authority
(retired as of March 2010). My management skills come from Corporate and Federal Training and Employment over many years. I have been involved with local organizations from Minor Hockey to First Nations Health to Union representation, these activities over the time span of my residency in Prince Rupert. I am committed to a green community, fiscal responsibility, infrastructure renewal, and a ten year plan to ensure future growth of the community by investing in infrastructure projects and encouraging any and all investors (heavy industry and manufacturers) to look seriously at the city. I will commit to finding efficient ways of improving the community and its services without sacrificing quality of life. Transparent reporting of all public business will be presented for public scrutiny. I will also seek to improve the security of our downtown core. In these uncertain economic times we need to look at how the City Budget has been prioritized. The only promise I can make is; if the money is available, projects can be undertaken. We must understand that regardless of the election results, the size of the pot of money available to budget will not change. I believe we must try to have trustworthy council by making some positional changes this election. Single issue and special cause councillors will not be objective when voting on issues that may or may not affect organization that they are tied to. I will do the job objectively with respect for the opinions of the electorate. I will work only in legal acceptable ways. I definitely won’t bite the hand that elects me. I call upon everyone in the community to VOTE. A vote for Gabe McLean will go a long way. This is my community, it has sustained me and given me much, I would like to return in kind. Vote for me, a candidate that has empathy with you and will hear you and act on your suggestions. Jennifer Rice Decisions can not be made in a silo. Without long-term planning and vision we will remain in a situation where we are continuously putting out fires dealing with crises as opposed to creating the future we want for our community. I feel that the whole community must be involved in creating a vision for Prince Rupert that is inclusive, healthy, and sustainable. I will work hard to engage the people that live here and help facilitate that vision. I am 37 years old and have been living in Prince Rupert for 10 years. I am employed with the T.Buck Suzuki Environmental Foundation, a non-profit affiliated with the United Fisherman and Allied Worker’s Union. I have sat two terms on the city’s Green Advisory Task Force. An SPCA supporter, former board member of Northwest Community College, and Coast Guard Auxiliary member, I am service orientated. I have painted banners that don the city’s streets and performed at the Tom Rooney Playhouse. I was a former columnist, writing about various environmental issues for the Prince Rupert Daily News. I am a member of the ‘Rupert Runners’ and volunteer as Race Director for the annual Prince Rupert Half Marathon plus 8 KM race. I intend to be both accessible and approachable to the community so that they may feel comfortable bringing issues to my attention at any time. With an increasing globalized economy, Prince Rupert needs to set policies that attract economic opportunities that create meaningful and lasting jobs. I support a diversified local economy that values small business. I believe we must work to support healthy livelihoods for all by improving equitable access to resources, supporting our seniors, youth, women and children, and respecting our First Nation cultures. We must set policy that considers the natural environment now and for future generations. Working with other small communities we need to lobby higher levels of government for an equitable infrastructure funding formula as the current system favours larger communities with higher tax bases. I am motivated, engaged and progressive. I will bring vitality to Prince Rupert city council. Please visit www.votejenrice.com.

Work closely with local First Nations and fishers for responsible fisheries management that will put fish into fishermen’s boats and into north coast plants.

Many of you may know me through my business endeavors within the city. Through these endeavors I have had the opportunity to speak with many residents all who have a passion for the good of the city. I feel these are the people who should be heard. This is one of the main reasons I have confidence in running for council. I strongly believe in a responsible and accessible government through regular communication with the people of Prince Rupert. Communication I feel should always come from the general public and represent the city as a whole. My hope is to be a voice for all constituents. Be that resident or Business. I feel confident that Council can find a common ground and work as a team to move the city forward and will work hard to promote economical development and increase community appreciation.

◆ NDP LEADERSHIP RACE
www.thenorthernview.com
SCIENCE IN ACTION…
MP’s voting policy plan By Shaun Thomas The Northern View Nathan Cullen outlined his first policy proposal as a candidate for the leadership of the Federal NDP late last month, and it’s one that strays quite a bit from the current electoral system. Cullen’s proposal calls for the Liberal Party, the Green Party and the NDP to hold joint nomination meetings to put one candidate against the Conservative candidates in ridings currently held by the government. The candidate would run under his or her party banner. “The system we have now is fundamentally flawed,” said Cullen. “One thing I note is that the government has formed a majority with only about 40 per cent support from those who bothered to vote, and that is ridiculous...There are
people sitting in the House right now with only one-third of support from their riding. To better align the government with the wants of the people, we need change.” Before the joint nomination took place, all three Larry Hope photo riding associations Charles Hays students Tamera Dawe and Julia Cunha would have to agree show off their home made acceleration testing device as to participate and a part of a unit on motion in Josh McDonald’s Science each card-carrying 10 class.

By Martina Perry The Northern View Country music fans piled into the Tom Rooney Playhouse on Saturday, October 29, to enjoy some local musicians and a Terrace group, The Copper Mountain String Band, perform a variety of country music tunes. This was the first ever Country Night put on by the North Coast Performers Society in Rupert. Organizer Ray Leonard says that when the event was first proposed, some people thought it wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be well attended because they thought there were no country music fans in Prince Rupert. They were wrong, because the theatre was packed on Saturday. The evening started off with organizer Ray Leonard and Cynthia Pyde performing a few songs of their own incorporating the guitar and washboard. Next up was Frances Riley and Sarah Burgess performing some older country tunes while switching a guitar back and forth between them. The duo have been performing together for years and have even branched out into some more unusual instruments like the glockenspiel. Lance Clarke and Bruno Hoy finished

◆ NOVEMBER 8 EVENT
Chamber of commerce addresses all-candidates forum Contributed The Northern View One of the core services we provide to members are policy and advocacy. We find out which issues are most important to our members and we advocate for a solution that benefits chamber members and local business in general. When we surveyed our members earlier this year, we found that the issues that our members wanted us to focus
on were “local” issues: taxation, bylaws and those kinds of things. To that end, the Chamber is hosting two forums for this upcoming municipal election to ensure that business interests are represented. The first forum is an all-candidates debate on November 8th at the Lester Centre (7pm) open to the public and televised live on CityWest channel 10. We have invited Mayoral and council candidates to this forum. Some general questions will be
asked up-front, and then we would take questions from the floor. The second forum is a Mayoral candidate’s question period hosted at the Chamber luncheon on November 16th (noon at the Crest Hotel). Given the short time period over the lunch meeting we chose to focus on the Mayoral candidates rather than invite the councillors as well. The Chamber luncheon (and all Chamber luncheons) are open to members and non-members
alike. We will focus on questions submitted by our members at the Chamber luncheon and then open up for questions from the floor. Local business is the lifeblood of our community, and we all see the growing number of empty stores downtown. The Chamber hopes to work with whoever is elected to Mayor and Council this year to improve the situation by making Prince
Rupert a favourable place to do business. Our ability to attract tourists, cruise ships, new residents, and skilled professionals to our community is enhanced by our unique and boutique stores and restaurants. If we can grow it, we all benefit; if we lose it, we all lose.

Rotary Auction online bidding starts Monday By Martina Perry The Northern View The Prince Rupert Rotary Club will be hosting the 47th annual Rotary Auction, where items donated by local businesses will be auctioned off to raise funds that the club will put back into the community through donations and Rotary projects. This year businesses in the community donated 646 items to be auctioned off, which is down from last year’s 729 items. Rotary Auction co-chair Tim Dressel, says the decrease in items is because of the decrease in businesses in the community, as well as many businesses donating less than they did in the previous year. Items being auctioned off this year include trips, tours, gift certificates, home renovations, beautiful printed pictures, televisions, furniture, food and much more.

Felisa Soriano Del Rosario
Stakeholders undecided on PNCIMA role By Alan S. Hale The Northern View
Passed away peacefully on October 27, 2011 at Prince Rupert, B.C. Felisa was born in Binmaley, Pangasinan, Philippines on November 23, 1916 and came to Prince Rupert on July, 1982 with the love of her life and now a grieving husband of 64 years, Manuel del Rosario. She was also survived by her loving daughter Lydia (Leah), husband Arturo Fermill and grandchildren whom she helped raise, Arthur, Ronald, Matthew and Julie Ann, of Prince Rupert. She will be sorely missed by her family in the Philippines: daughter, Zosima De Vera (Corlito), sons: Tomas (Teresita), Jeremias (Remy), grandchildren: Julius John, Ellen Grace, Mary Ann, Ana Leah, Cherry Rose, Michael, Melvin, Marlon, Jeremy, Renee Rose, Jeffery and Manuliza and great grandchildren: Dexter and Michaela. Felisa was kind, unselÀsh and a most positive person to those who were blessed to be touched by her. She loved her life, her husband, her family and her friends. We will all miss this sweet and beautiful lady. Viewing will be on Friday, November 4, 2011 from 7:00p.m. and memorial “mass” service will be on Saturday, November 5, 2011 at 2:00p.m. with reception to follow after mass. Viewing, memorial mass and reception will all take place at Annunciation Church. Special thanks to Father Andy Takach, Dr. Mike Ikari, the 3rd Áoor staff of Prince Rupert Regional Hospital, family and friends who made Felisa’s last days comfortable and meaningful.
Stakeholders in the process to establish a Pacific North Coast Integrated Management Area (PNCIMA), will decide at the end of next month if they should bother to continue participating in the planning after the federal government unilaterally decided to “streamline” it by largely cutting them out of the conversation. The government wants to make the process less dependent on consensusbuilding in order to have a completed plan by the end of 2012. This has caused stakeholders such as the Skeena Queen Charlotte Regional District to call the new process “PNCIMA-light.” They say that unless the government can reassure them that they will still have any meaningful input, they won’t bother continuing to participate.
“The reason they gave was that they felt it was expedient to move things along and that the collaborative governance process that we originally entered into was not going to allow for that strict time line. So they basically moved everything inside the Department [of Fisheries and Oceans], and they’ll be doing most of the work in there,” says Des Nobles who represents the regional district for PNCIMA. The stakeholders are representatives from communities, the commercial fisheries, conservation groups, the nonrenewable energy industry, recreation industry and tourism industry that would be affected by the establishment of such a plan make up a body called the Integrated Oceans Advisory Committee (IOAC). The IOAC had been working on the PNCIMA process for the past 15 months and despite some conflicting interests, the members say that they have been working with the goal of finding a consensus
between them, a long and complicated process. Then last month the Federal Government withdrew from a funding agreement that would have contributed millions of dollars to the process from an Environmental groups, Tides Canada. The IOAC sent a letter to the PNCIMA steering committee saying that they feel that if the government forgoes the need for collaboration and consensus for the sake of saving time, the whole process will lose its integrity. In the letter they gave a list of information they require before making a decision. Among other things, they want a justification for why the plan must be completed by December 2012, a strategy for maintaining stakeholder engagement, a new budgeting strategy and a commitment to consensus-based governance. Nobles says that the IOAC members are ready to hear the government out at a meeting scheduled at the end of November

WANTED BY POLICE… Opportunity for Public Comment On Commissioner’s Coastal Ferry Act Review
The British Columbia Ferry Commission, the independent regulator of BC Ferries, has been mandated by the provincial government to review the Coastal Ferry Act and to make recommendations on potential changes to the Act which would better enable the commissioner to balance the financial sustainability of the ferry operator and the interest of ferry users. The commissioner has been conducting public consultation meetings in coastal communities served by BC Ferries and is inviting additional input on a number of key issues described in a series of discussion papers.
