After weeks of campaigning, the municipal election is over and Jack Mussallem has been re-elected mayor of Prince Rupert with almost twice the votes of his nearest opponent, Kathy Bedard. While turnout this election’s turnout was low only 35.3 per cent of eligible voters, Mussallem got about to half of all votes cast in the election with 1769. Bedard received 981 votes and Corinna Morhart came in third with 357 votes. “I’m disappointed, but I wish the city great success. And I will still be involved in this community,” said Bedard after it was clear that she had lost. The city council looks largely unchanged from the previous one. Incumbent councillors

Joy Thorkelson (1,925 votes), Anna Ashley (1,459 votes), Gina Garon (1,536 votes) and Nelson Kinney (1,898 votes) were all re-elected to council. They will be joined by two first-time councillors Jennifer Rice (1,665) and Judy Carlick-Pearson (1,080). Newcomer Jennifer Rice ran her campaign using the internet and social media with great success, propelling her from a relative unknown to third place overall. “I think [that I have been elected to city council] because I’m a people person, so I can relate to a lot of different people whether they’re older or young. I’m authentic and I’m pretty passionate about a lot of things,” says Rice. The school board has also not changed very much after the election. Former board chair, Tina Last has been re-elected with the most votes;1,777. Also returning tot he

school board is Bart Kuntz (1,587 votes), Terri-Lynne Huddlestone (1,046 votes) and Louisa Sanchez.

In Masset, Jason Thompson received the most votes with 174, followed by former mayor Barry Pages with 155, Bret Johnston with 116 and Natanis Hageman with 122.

◆ BUSINESS

Coast to undergo $3 million overhaul and name change By Alan S. Hale The Northern View The Coast Hotel in downtown Prince Rupert will be undergoing a major remodel that hotel management hope will get underway this spring. The building will be undergoing a major overhaul expected to cost $3-million and take 12 to 16 months of construction work while keeping the hotel open for business the entire time. After all the work is completed the hotel will continue operation under the familiar name of the Prince Rupert Hotel. The redesign of the building represents a shift in the hotel’s business plan according to Prince Rupert Hotel president Craig Briere. “The hope and the intent is to make the property stable so that we have longevity. The current model does not give us either. The current model is antiquated, we’ve been dependent on liquor sales, and that is the way of the past,” says Briere. Briere says that for the past several years the hotel has depended on the beer and wine store and nightclub that the hotel owns for survival. The plan is not to close either of them, but to refocus on making money from providing rooms to guests. “You have all these things that line up against you: smoking bans, HST, drinking and driving laws – which are all good things, don’t get me wrong – but at the end of the day you can’t then base your business around [the bar and liquor store]. You have to look at them as ancillary revenue sources and the primary one needs to be hotel rooms,” says Briere.” Even though the hotel’s new emphasis is about selling hotel rooms they are actually planning to have less of them, with many being remodelled and

some converted into themed suites. Some rooms are also going to have kitchenettes put in them for attracting longer-term stays by tourists and business people. The main floor of the hotel will be radically altered with the reception moved into a new place and an expanded lounge with a fireplace for lodgers. This is bad news for regulars the Charlie’s Restaurant since the diner will be closed to make way for the new ground floor plan wood and fireplaces. and will be replaced with a breakfast The outside of the building will be very lounge meant for guests. different too.

What’s at the Annual Rotary Auction raises over $50,000 Ocean View this Week? Grey Cup Party ◆ ANOTHER SUCCESS

By Martina Perry The Northern View

Although donated items were slightly down this year, the Prince Rupert Rotary Club still managed to raise over $50,000 in the 47th annual Rotary Auction, funds that will help North Coast projects stay in motion. This year, the 669 items that were put up for auction earned $49,537, with the 750 raffle ticket sales bringing the total to $53,340 before expenses. Although auction revenue was slightly down for 2010’s Rotary Auction earnings of $50,251, Rotary Auction cochair, Tim Dressel, says he is still very satisfied. “I am very pleased with the results of the auction this year. Donations were down by almost $10,000 yet the auction net was only down 1.5 per cent. Community and business participation turned out to be the best in years,” he said. Items being auctioned off this year included trips around the Province, tours, gift certificates for a variety of different things, home renovations, beautiful printed pictures, televisions, furniture, food and much more. The Prince Rupert Rotary Club hosts auctions each year to help raise funds to be put towards projects on the North Coast,

OPINION

MY VIEW…

Election results and staying the course... The people of Prince Rupert on Saturday sent a clear message about the operation of the City, or at least the 35 per cent who came out to cast their ballots did, and that message is seemingly to stay the course and carry on from the work done in the past three years. Incumbent Jack Mussallem crushed challengers Kathy Bedard and Corinna Morhart, getting just under 800 more votes than his next closest competitor. All four incumbent councillors who were seeking re-election were elected, claiming four of the top five vote counts on the evening. When the dust settles on the election of 2011, it’s going to look a lot like the election of 2008 to be honest. When the votes were tallied then council was made up of five women, one man and a man in the mayor’s chair; following the 2011 election council is made up of five women, one man and a man in the mayor’s chair. After the election of 2008 there were four incumbent councillors who had been re-elected and two new faces in the council chamber; after 2011 there are four incumbent councillors who have been re-elected and two new faces in the chamber. A disturbing difference from this past election compared to 2008, however, is the drop in voter turnout. This year the voter turnout was 35.3 compared to 41.3 per cent in 2008. Obviously I’m a bit disappointed that pretty much one person in three went out to vote. So if the message is to stay the course, what can Prince Rupert expect in the next three years? Your guess is as good as mine, but make no mistake about the fact that this council is going to have some tough decisions ahead. The City is facing an infrastructure deficit in the 10s of millions of dollars, they

are involved in court cases surrounding Watson Island and there is a fair number of key staff who could realistically be looking to retire by the time the 2014 election rolls around. Couple that with Prince Rupert’s increased role as a gateway to the Asia Pacific and there are interesting times ahead. Regardless of what the next three years holds, I would like to congratulate all of those who were successful in their

campaign, and thank all those who put their name forward. The availability of choice is a key to democracy. I would also like to thank Kathy Bedard, Russell Wiens and Leonard Alexcee for their years of service to the community. They may not be in office after the 2011 election, but there is no question they helped pave the way ahead and laid the groundwork for those who are.

~ Shaun Thomas

Tourism’s role in building and sustaining a healthy community Listening to the Prince Rupert Hotel’s plans for a three million dollar upgrade last week, in the closing days of a municipal election that featured much talk about prosperity but not much talk of tourism, got me thinking once again about what tourism means to Prince Rupert. As I’ve pointed out before, in just the three months of our Prince Rupert Visitor Study in 2007, we know that tourism brought us $52 million in revenue and hundreds of jobs. Estimates for gross revenue to the community for an entire year range as high as $200 million. Almost all of our business community is sustained at least in part by tourism. Tourism offers economic growth without unnecessary sacrifice. Properly planned, tourism growth need neither change our way of life nor bring harm to our environment. Tourism lends economic sense to community improvements that improve our quality of

excursions, and so residents don’t life. It allows us to have Talking tourism always notice their presence. many amenities, in museums, Similarly, those of us diverse restaurants and who live here don’t always so on, that we might not understand what draws visitors otherwise be able to support. to Prince Rupert.

Business owners who rely on tourism spiritually overwhelming it is to spend an hour or two watching the grizzlies of the contribute substantially to our tax base. Yet Prince Rupert suffers a little from a Khutzeymateen. I think that the people of this town are sense of invisible tourism. By that I mean that the sheer number of visitors seem to be excited about tourism, but I’m not sure absorbed into the community on any given that we have, as a community, completely summer day, or they’re out on wilderness embraced tourism. One still hears too many

dismissive comments, mostly from people who don’t know enough about what the industry can mean for us. Learning more, and becoming involved, is nearly always rewarding – and it’s easy to do. It takes hundreds of volunteers to stage the AllNative, Seafest, and so on. You needn’t devote more than a few hours to make a noticeable and appreciated contribution. Or even just talk to a visitor that you meet in the street, and ask if they’ve had a chance yet to stop by the Visitor Centre to learn more about the things they can experience here. Like many people who did not grow up here, I recognize on a daily basis why Prince Rupert is important to me. Set against any challenges created by a small or isolated community, this is a place where people still care. I think that tourism will help us prosper as a community while leaving this core value undamaged.

Time to remove Rupert’s derelict vessels Editor’s note: The following was received as an open letter to the agencies listed below. Small Craft Harbours Fisheries and Oceans Canada City of Prince Rupert Prince Rupert Port Authority Port Edward Harbour Authority Canadian Coast Guard I have been involved with Prince Rupert Civic Pride. The focus is to make the community safer, cleaner and more appealing to

residents and tourists. After visiting our waterfront and floats this summer, it should be a mandate of your group, individually or collectively, to remove derelict vessels moored at the wharfs. There are many that look like they could sink at any time, could be leaking hazardous chemicals and polluting our harbour. They are definitely an eye sore for residents and tourists alike. During my inquires, I was informed that you (Small Craft Harbours) removed

Our 12 Days of Christmas st promotion starts December 1 Bring in a non-perishable item for our food hamper and receive a 10% discount in our Captain’s Table Restaurant.

three vessels last summer, this is a great start!! It was also noted that the process was very expensive. Is there any possible way to recoup the cost from the owner, or at least a portion of the expense? Please do not at three. I, along with many of the citizens of Prince Rupert, would be interested in any developments that take place in the future. Yours truly, Donna Morse Smith

Receive a 15% discount when you bring in a 12 days of Christmas item 1st Day....cans of pears or a small christmas tree, or tree shaped cookies 2nd Day...turtle chocolates or dove chocolates, or a turtle ninja toy 3rd Day....chicken noodle soup cans, french cut beans, or a toy of a french nature or stuffed chicken

Suggestions to put the Remembrance Day focus back on those who sacrificed Editor I have participated in or attended every Remembrance Day ceremony since I have moved to Prince Rupert and I go through all the same feelings and emotions each and every time. I start of by feeling very proud of our Country and Canadians and then I begin to feel a little lump in my throat during Reverie and the minute of silence, but that soon disappears. When the MC starts to list off retail and service businesses it feels just like when a good movie is interrupted

by the PBS pledge drive or a very long infomercial; a little misplaced. I have some suggestions for next year’s ceremony. Instead of listening to an alphabetical list of local businesses and service groups how about reading a list of the names of the people who fought and died in the war who were from Rupert and area. Organizations who have a direct link to war like the Legions, Ladies Auxiliary, RCMP, Cadets and more can still be commemorated and asked to lay a reef, but I don’t think for

4th Day....Calling cards for friends and family, or birds of any size or type 5th Day...Cans of sliced pineapple, or slinkies are joined rings, or christmas garland (gold tinsel garland)

profit businesses need to be recognized on this special day. Also school children could recite in Flanders Field or other thoughts they have put down on paper about what this day means to them. Meanwhile businesses, individuals and other groups could go up two at a time and lay their wreath without waiting for their name to be called. This day should be about all those heroes who died, fought and assisted in war efforts. Lest we forget, lest we forget. E. STEVENSON

6th Day....Eggs, candied or ornament-like, white chocolate cookies 7th Day...Swimming attire, snorkel/ﬁns, ﬂoatation devices, swan trinkets

◆ ELECTRIFYING HIGHWAY 37

Lax Kw’alaams signs Northwest Transmission Line deal By Alan S. Hale The Northern View BC Hydro announced last week that it has signed an impact benefit agreement with Lax Kw’alaams First Nation for the Northwest Transmission Line project. “A lot of effort has gone in to negotiating a fair benefits agreement with the Lax Kw’alaams whose traditional territory is impacted by the Northwest Transmission Line project. With this agreement, the Lax Kw’alaams will benefit through a number of economic opportunities such as increased job opportunities, now and into the future,” says Lax Kw’alaams chief, Gary Reece. The details of the agreement were not released by the company and no one from either side could be reached before this issue had to go to press. Lax Kw’alaams is not the only First Nation to have signed an impact benefit agreement with

BC Hydro recently. Over the past several months, agreements have also been singed with many other aboriginal groups including Metlakatla and the Nisga’a Nation, “The signing of this agreement is an important first step in building a strong, trusting relationship with the Lax Kw’alaams that sets the stage for economic opportunities during construction of the Northwest Transmission Line and well beyond,” says BY Hydro’s Executive Vice-President for the project, Greg Reimer. Construction on the transmission lines will begin soon and is expected to take until spring of 2014 before its complete. In those three years, BC Hydro will create 840 direct construction jobs to build the 344-kilometres of power lines. BC Hydro says it has promised at least some of these jobs to First Nations. BC Hydro has also indicated that it will be working with Lax Kw’alaams on improvements to its power supply “including back-up options to the community.”

◆ DEVELOPMENT PERMITS

Council gives city planner ability to approve up to $100,000 By Alan S. Hale The Northern View City council decided to give the city planner, Zeno Krekic the power to approve spending on projects that cost to up $100,000. The move comes after Krekic met with contractors and other business people to get their input on how the City goes about starting development permits.

“One of the suggestions that was made was that the amount of delegation to Mr. Krekic from a maximum of $20,000 to $100,000 to allow for quicker turnaround of development permits,” said city manager Gordon Howie. In order to give Kreckic this new authority, council hard to enact a new city bylaw. Councillor Anna Ashley raised concerns that a clause in the bylaw gives him “the

power to supplement a bylaw,” which she said was problematic since the community charter requires changes to bylaws to be done by council itself. Kreckic says that he’s not being given the power to alter the bylaws as needed but rather the ability to look at the designs for a new project and then say what is required - given the circumstances and location - in order to be in

compliance with the city’s bylaw. Many councillors thought the change was a good idea because the city has been criticized for not moving fast enough on projects, and the simple fact that money doesn’t go as far as it used to. “I think it’s a great idea because we need to move things forward in this community and $20,000 does not go as far as it did. A $100,000 job is what a $20,000 job used to

be. I think it is appropriate to move that number up,” said Gina Garon. Councillor Ashley was worried that streamlining the approval process in this way might undermine the ability of people to challenge a decision to not approve their project. Mayor Jack Mussallem pointed out that the principle of Natural Justice means anyone can appeal the decision to the city council.

â&#x2014;&#x2020; SAFETY IN SHIPPING

CBSA outlines local operations The Northern View Did you ever worry that the ships you see out in the harbour could have drugs or other illegal goods attached to them underneath the water? Most people would most likely answer that question with a resounding â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and probably a little bewildered â&#x20AC;&#x201C; no. But thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of the things that is checked for by Prince Rupertâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s branch of the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA), which is tasked with preventing anything dangerous or illegal from coming through the fast-growing Port of Prince Rupert. The CBSA invited the media to come see its facilities on Thursday to give Rupertites a better understanding of what the agency does in their city. Adam Coltish, who works for the agency, says he has used the small remote-controlled submersible that the CBSA uses to check for contraband attached to the underside of cargo ships without the crewâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s knowledge. Smugglers will sometimes use divers to attach contraband such as drugs inside a water-proof container like a scuba tank to the hull of a ship or hide

them in water intakes. Then when the ship reaches its destination like Prince Rupert they send someone to retrieve it from the hiding spot. When Prince Rupert became a port city, it became important part of the global market but it also became a part of the black market as well. CBSA agents unload and inspect all of the cargo containers coming through Fairview Terminal that are considered â&#x20AC;&#x153;high riskâ&#x20AC;? which they determine using Dan Bubas different information sources and shipping information. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That means completely unloaded and all of the goods examined individually with our detection equipment. Last year, in 2010, our officers examined over 1,400 containers,â&#x20AC;? says Coultish. When a container is taken from the port and brought to their facility on Ridley, workers unload everything inside and run every single box through a scanner, like the kind that is used on carry-on luggage at the airport. If the items inside are too big to fit through the x-ray machine they wheel up to the loading dock, they can send it through their one-story-high scanner that can scan through an entire pallet of goods at once. If

even that isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t big enough, the agency has a truck with an hydraulic arm that can x-ray an entire cargo container. They will also open some boxes to check the merchandise themselves. The agency works very closely with the RCMP, turning whatever they find over to the police who then start an actual criminal investigation. Border agents Alan S.

◆ TICKETS AVAILABLE SATURDAY

Jingle Bell Express rides again By Martina Perry The Northern View Back by popular demand, tickets for this year’s Jingle Bell Express will be going on sale this weekend, a train ride where families get the opportunity to meet the one and only Santa Claus, while helping raise funds local pediatric care. Tickets tend to go rapidly for the Jingle Bell Express, so parents and guardians interested in purchasing tickets are encouraged to the Crest Hotel this upcoming Saturday, November 26, where 150 tickets will be going on sale at 10 a.m. sharp. “We generally sell out within 10 minutes,” organizer Dave Walker, who has been putting this event together for the past 15 years, warned. The Jingle Bell Express rides will be taking place on Tuesday, December 6, this year with the first outing taking place at noon, and the second at two p.m. Santa Claus will be greeting people at the station before the train departs to the Watson Island area. While the train is traveling, Santa Claus will be making his rounds around the car, speaking to each child and their guardians. Additionally, while onboard child will receive a gift bag with an assortment of fun items, such as activity books. For the last 15 years the Jingle Bell Express

has been an outstanding source of pleasure for children in the community, not only for kids aboard the train, but also for children in need as money collected for the Jingle Bell Express is donated to the pediatric ward at the Prince Rupert Regional Hospital. Walker estimates that around $1,400 was raised from last year’s Jingle Bell Express rides, with over $1,000 being raised each year since the event started. The Jingle Bell Express is possible with the help of VIA Rail Canada, who donate the use of the train, with the engineers operating the train volunteering their time. Additionally, CN donates the use of the rails with Maher Terminals helping out with the timing of the rail use.

My Mountain Coop purchases Shames Mountain By Lauren Benn Terrace Standard The non-profit group working toward buying the Shames Mountain ski facility says the sales deal has been finalized. The closure of the deal between My Recreational Mountain Co-op and the Shames Mountain Ski Corporation “represents another important step forward for the recently formed MMC in the efforts across the northwest to ensure the future of the ski area,” the co-op said in a press release. Terms of the agreement were not immediately released but it does involve a cash payment. The release says the price tag is “dramatically less than the original [$2 million] listing price for the ski area.” Still to be resolved between the Shames Mountain Ski Corporation is a long-outstanding tourism loan between it and the provincial government and unpaid royalties owed the province for the use of the mountain in prior years. “We believe the terms of the purchase of the assets of the ski area from the SMSC reflect a fair value and ensure that the MMC is not burdened by unmanageable debt in our efforts to ensure the sustainability of the ski area for the future,” said co-op director Curtis Billey. “We are appreciative of the support and cooperation of the current owners in conclusion of this agreement.” The co-op said it has made significant progress over the past few months in mobilizing resources for the 2011/12 ski season including the hiring of staff, opening of the downtown office, and commencing pre-season lift maintenance in preparation for a planned opening in December.

Woman plans swim from Lax Kw’alaams to Rupert to raise awareness of cancer Contributed The Northern View Dayna R. McKay from the small Tshimpshian village of Lax Kw’alaams just north of Prince Rupert is preparing to carry out a marathon 52 kilometre open ocean swim from her home community of Lax Kw’alaams to Prince Rupert, with the swim taking place on the tentative date of June 21, 2012. Dayna wants to raise money and awareness of cancer amongst her people as cancer has touched every family in the small community over the years. Her inspiration for this swim is her Uncle Billy, William R. Sampson, who was diagnosed with prostate cancer in June, 2009. Dayna has the encouragement and support from family, friends and band members from Lax Kw’alaams, Prince Rupert, Terrace and Vancouver areas, many of whom have volunteered to help her make this dream become a reality. With the help of a volunteer personal dry-land trainer and a volunteer swimming coach Dayna has started a training regiment that will make sure that she is fit enough to make the long swim. Dayna, with a small core group of volunteers, is in the initial stages of planning for this cause. Through the efforts of her team of volunteers Dayna has the backing, support and approval of the Richard Wesley Memorial Trust Fund, the Lax Kw’alaams Volunteer Firemen & First Responders and the Lax Kw’alaams Band Council. She is seeking further endorsement from

With the deadline for submissions to the Enbridge Pipeline Joint Review Panel quickly approaching at the end of next month, council

has been talking about what strategy they will take with their input to the panel. Joy Thorkelson says that the City doesn’t need to debate the safety or risks of pipeline or oil tanker designs, but rather tell the panel that the community

depends on clean water for its economic survival. “We don’t need to get into if a single hull or a double hull or a triple hull is sufficient...

much of Prince Rupert’s tourist industry depends on fishing, charter trips and natural beauty. She says council only needs to point the review panel to Prince Rupert’s tourism plan to illustrate how important the environment is to tourism here. “I’m concerned that our economic needs be forgotten in this process...I don’t think anyone making a written submission needs to do more than look at our tourism plan, which says our primary tourism product is outdoor waterbased adventures, primarily salt water fishing and wildlife viewing in a pristine natural environment,” she told her fellow councillors. “We could use that and we could use our Official Community Plan, which mentions a clean environment at least four times....We also have the value of the commercial fishery, aquaculture and value and ceremonial value of fish and food fish to the community and First Nations,” added Thorkelson. Thorkelson says she’s been working on the submission to the Enbridge panel for her employer, the United Fishermen and Allied Workers Union, and says that industry is also important to the community but also depends on clean water to survive. The council needs to make a concise case or it risks being drowned out by the interests of other communities who have opted to be interveners in the panel process like Prince Rupert, said Thorkelson. “I am concerned. The City of Prince George, Terrace, Chetwynd, Fort St. James, Kitimat, the Regional Districts of Bulkley Nechako, Regional District of Wood Buffalo, the towns of Gibbons, Burns Lake, Mayerthorpe, Whitecourt, Queen Charlotte and Masset are all intervenors plus federal and provincial governments and government departments are going to be intervenors as are the Nisga’a Band Council and other First Nations bands,” says Thorkelson.

Trio Hochelaga takes to the Lester Centre Concert Society, as part of the trio’s “Angels and Demons” 2011/2012-concert tour. Trio Hochelaga is made up of pianist Stéphane Lemelin The Montreal-based classical threesome Trio Hochelaga who is a winner of many national and international prizes and performed an intimate concert at the Lester Centre of the awards including a prize at the Robert Casadesus International Arts on Friday, November 18, presented by the Prince Rupert competition, violinist Anne Robert, the First Violin with the Montreal Symphony Orchestra for the past twelve years, and cellist Paul Marleyn who is a Professor of Cello at the University of Ottawa. The three have been playing music from the classical period and current period together since 2000. On Friday, Trio Hochelaga started the evening off by performing “Trio Élégiaque No. 1 in G Minor” by Russian composer, pianist and conductor, Sergi Vasilievich Rachmanioff, a composer the trio thinks of as “one of the great Romantic masters”. The three then performed Beethoven’s “Piano Trio No. 5 in D Major”, dubbed “Ghost” because of its eerie qualities of slow movement. This piece, published in 1809, starts off with an explosion of unison instrument playing in the opening movement before concluding with a surprise interjection of the same theme. The third movement rounds off the piece with musical warmth. Trio Hochelaga’s final piece of the performance was “Piano Trio in B Flat Major, D898” by Austrian composer Franz Peter Schubert. In this piece Roberts and Marleyn’s string playing come From together as a duet magnificently, with Lemelin’s Mommy, Daddy piano playing soaring at times. and Grayson The Prince Rupert Concert Society will be presenting Jill Barber, who on Thursday at 8 p.m.

ZONE CHAMPS…

K e i t h Movold shuts the door as players from both the Smithers Steelheads and Rampage gather at the front of the net.

◆ CIHL ACTION

Rampage split weekend road trip to the Bulkley Valley By Shaun Thomas The Northern View The Prince Rupert Rampage headed to the Bulkley Valley this weekend for a Saturday game against the undefeated Smithers Steelheads and a Sunday game against the Hazelton Wolverines and came away with two points. In Saturday’s game against Smithers, it was the Rampage who struck first as Jared Andreesen put one past Mike Wall just 39 seconds into the game. Smithers, however, would respond quickly with a goal by Spencer Brooks with just over 15 minutes to go, and Eric Smith would give the home squad the lead less than four minutes later. That would be all the scoring in the first and, as it would turn out, all the scoring in the game for the Rampage. In the second Randall Groot extended the Smithers lead to two, beating Keith Movold just 2:43 into the period. After a long period of back and forth play, Smithers would add two late goals from Rob Millar with 2:50 to play and Russ Blanchard with 1:47 to go to give Smithers a commanding 5-1 lead heading into the final frame. The third would turn out to be much the same as the second, with Devon Booth scoring for Smithers 21 seconds into the period, Cody Cringan made it 7-1 5:22 later and Adam DeVries added to the Smithers lead with just 1:32 to go to give Smithers the 8-1 victory. On Sunday the Rampage had much better luck against the Hazelton Wolverines. While the gamesheet was not available as of press

time, the Rampage came away with two points based on a 5-3 victory over the struggling Wolverines. The Rampage remain third in the CIHL Western conference with seven points, one back of Terrace with eight points and well behind the 14 points of the Kitimat Ice Demons, who defeated Hazelton but went on to lose to Steelheads as well this weekend. The Rampage will face off against the River Kings this Saturday night and will take on the Wolverines in a rematch from last weekend in back to back games on Saturday and Sunday. Look for results from those games next week in the Prince Rupert Northern View.

The PRMS Grade 8 Boys Volleyball team won the zones this weekend in a well fought final against Smithers Secondary school. Coach Jackie Jackson said, “it was a great season with a record of 8 wins and 6 loses but more importantly there was huge skill improvement by each player plus an understanding of team success through a ‘never give up’ attitude.” The MVP of the Zone Championships (trophy donated by Cooks Jewellers) was won by #13 Justin McChesney. The All-Star award went to #8 Jonathan Nelson.
