The US Government body that will be deciding if Prince Rupert enjoys an unfair advantage over west coast ports in America has made available the public input it has received since the inquiry was first called in November. As of Friday Afternoon, the US Federal Maritime Commission has made available 57 different submissions from business and trade groups – sometimes representing hundreds of companies - corporations, governments, politicians and even one or two private individuals. It’s a diverse bunch, ranging from Canada’s biggest business interest group, the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, to the American Apparel and Footwear Association. The good news for Prince Rupert is that the majority of the submissions advise the Maritime Commission against imposing new fees on containers entering the US after

being unloaded at Canadian Ports; a solution that is being espoused by American west coast ports such as Seattle and Tacoma. The conflict is centred around the Harbour Maintenance Tax (HMT), which is a federal government fee charged by American ports to those who unload cargo there. The fee is charged on each container and is based on a small percentage of whatever the cargo inside is worth. The money from this is collected and distributed by the government to ports nation-wide to be used for port improvements, more specifically, dredging. In Canada, ports do not charge a fee like this to port users. Canadian Port Authorities, including Prince Rupert’s, often absorb the cost of harbour maintenance instead of charging their customer’s extra. Ports with naturally deep harbours, also like Prince Rupert, don’t need to worry about dredging costs at all, or at least, not very often. The Washington Ports Association, in its submission to the commission, blames the HMT for driving away business to Canada by creating an “artificial Canadian advantage.”

Since American ports have no choice but to charge the HMT, the Washington ports believe that Canada has taken advantage of that and created what it is calling “the land boarder loophole,” where shippers get around paying to help maintain the infrastructure they use by unloading cargo in Canada instead. The Seattle Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce shares this view. The chamber points to the large expansion of traffic in Prince Rupert by the Chinese shipping companies Hanjin and COSCO since the port opened as example of traffic being “diverted” away from Seattle. Both companies have been long-time customers, but decided in 2011 to send more ships to Prince Rupert, doubling the traffic here. However, Hanjin Shipping sent in its own comments to the commission, saying that it chooses to use Canadian ports based on “a number of business reasons including transit time, reliability, efficiency, risk management practices, etc.” See Commission, page 3

◆ YEAR END FIGURES

Port Authority numbers up in 2011 By Shaun Thomas The Northern View After a strong year in 2010, numbers from the Prince Rupert Port Authority show traffic through the various local terminals was up in 2011. Fairview Terminal saw a 20 per cent increase in traffic, from 343,366 TEUs in 2010 to 410,469 TEUs in 2011, with the number of loaded TEUs increasing by 30 per cent from last year to this year. Imports through Fairview Terminal were up 20 per cent to sit at 233,146 TEUs. While exports were up 17 per cent, the figure to note is the number of loaded containers being

shipped out through prince Rupert was up 59 per cent, surpassing 100,000 TEUs in 2011, while the number of containers being sent back empty was down 13 per cent. In 2011 Ridley Terminals shattered the record they set in 2010. In total the terminal shipped 9.64 million tonnes of product compared to 8.3 million tonnes in 2010, a difference of 16 per cent. Of note, the amount of metallurgical coal shipped in 2011 was up 40 per cent from 2010. Prince Rupert Grain saw a 17 per cent increase in its shipments this year, with just over five million tonnes shipped in 2011 compared to 4.29 million tonnes in 2010. The number of logs shipped from the harbour was up almost 50 per cent, climbing from 342,265 tonnes in 2010 to

RTI set another record in 2011. 510,654 tonnes in 2011. In total, the tonnage handled by the Prince Rupert Port Authority was up 18 per cent in 2011.

◆ MARKET NEWS

Realty numbers in 2011 almost equal to 2010, prices down By Shaun Thomas The Northern View The year end realty numbers were released on January 5, and the number of properties sold in Prince Rupert in 2011 was pretty much equal to the number sold in 2010. In total there were 116 properties sold in 2011 compared to 117

properties sold in 2010. Despite one less property being sold, the total value of sales for the year was up from $18.9 million last year to $19.3 million this year. Of those 116 properties, 96 were single family homes which sold for an average price of $175,217. That is the lowest number in three years, down from an average price

of $179,090 for the 97 homes that sold in 2010. “I think it’s important to look at the type of property being moved. In the $150,000 to $200,000 price point you would think they would be snapped up with the rates where they are, but we’re seeing more activity in the $200,000-plus range. That could be reflective of the jobs and the hours people are getting,” said Northern BC Real Estate Board president and local realtor Victor Prystay, adding that the activity going on at Ridley

Island and proposed industrial developments paint a positive picture for the market in 2012. “I think 2012 is going to see a big bounce in the market and I think we’re going to be really busy. Five vacant lots were sold in 2011 and at the end of the year there were 226 properties listed through the MLS service in Prince Rupert, which is equal to the end of 2010. One number that may not necessarily be reflected in the numbers is commercial leases, which Prystay said have been picking up in late 2011. “I do commercial work and I have gotten

a lot of inquiries this fall about leasing space from out of town companies. This is after a lot of years where the interest wasn’t very high,” he said. “I think that is a good harbinger of what is to come.” While the number of properties sold in Prince Rupert is down just slightly, the 116 properties sold is by far the lowest number in the northwest. In Terrace there were 267 properties sold for a total of $50 million, in Kitimat there were 214 properties sold for a total of $29.8 million and in Smithers there were 256 properties sold for a total of $52.8 million. Prince Rupert also has more properties still for sale, with 188 available in Terrace, 59 available in Kitimat and 187 available in Smithers.

Telus has pointed out that it has invested at lot of money and time to get high speed internet to the Islands when other companies wouldn’t bother. “We’ve already invested significantly in bringing capacity to an island when none of our competitors have invested a penny,” said Shawn Hall from Telus. “Quite frankly I’m surprised GwaiiTel would go out and criticize us in public, we’ve been working with them as a partner trying to find ways to address their concerns and their needs.” The new radio link upgrades are evidence, Telus says, of their commitment to bring better service there despite the difficulties and to make it readily available to their wholesale customer GwaiiTel.

842 families helped by local Salvation Army By Martina Perry The Northern View

In 2011, the Prince Rupert Salvation Army once again helped support families living in need during the holiday season by putting on the Kettle Campaign and Christmas Hamper Program. Captain Gary Sheils told the Prince Rupert Northern View late last week that the kettle campaign donations were sitting at $134,578, with approximately 150 people volunteering to collect funds. Last year around $144,000 was raised, but according to Sheils this year’s contributions are not over yet. “Donations are still coming in,” said Sheils, mentioning that donations will most likely be coming in until the end of the month. Each year money raised through the Kettle Campaign goes towards the Salvation Army’s Christmas Hamper Program. This program provides toys and a stocking for children ages 12 and under, a toy for children twelve to eighteen and a food gift card to help ensure Christmas is a happy time for families in need of assistance. According to Sheils, preliminary figures show that 842 families - about 1,600 adults and 1,050 children - used the Salvation Army Christmas Hamper Program in 2011. Sheils says these numbers are around the same as last years’. The Salvation Army collects items for the Christmas Hamper through the Prince Rupert Harley Riders Club annual Toy Run and through general donations. The Kettle Campaign also helps raise funds for other Salvation Army services such as the food bank, that 800 to 900 people utilize each month and the soup kitchen.

OPINION

MY VIEW…

Looking back and looking ahead... I always look forward to the first few weeks of the year when it comes to news as it is a chance to look at where we have come in the past 12 months through year-end results for different groups. This week both the Prince Rupert Port Authority and the Northern BC Real Estate Board released their 2011 results, and it paints a positive picture. The Prince Rupert Port Authority and the terminals in Prince Rupert saw increases across the board in 2011. Ridley Terminals bested the record they set last year in impressive fashion, shipping about 1.3 million tonnes more than 2010. Fairview Terminal, at a time when other ports are seeing a decline in traffic and when the global economy is still facing some challenges, saw their imports increase and surpassed 100,000 TEUs being exported. And Prince Rupert Grain was up this year as well, so all the terminals are in the black when it comes to traffic in 2011. The realty numbers are a bit of a mixed bag. The number of properties sold is down as is the average selling price for a home. Prince Rupert had the fewest properties sold across the northwest and has the highest number of properties still on the market. Obviously none of that is good news. But for those who have followed the realty numbers throughout the year, the rebound in the second half is a positive. Halfway through the year the number of properties sold in 2011 was 16 down from 2010. To rebound from 16 fewer properties being sold through the first six months of the year to being down just a single property shows either a) interest in Prince Rupert increased in the second half of the

year or b) those living here already were now in a position where they could become homeowners. Of course the big tell-tale number of Prince Rupert’s changes will come on February 8 when Statistics Canada releases the Census numbers. This won’t tell how we did against 2010, but what has happened in Prince Rupert since

the 2006 Census. I’ve heard people say we’ve grown from the 13,392 in 2006, and I’ve heard people say we’ve declined significantly. A lot has changed from 2006 - the opening of Fairview Terminal for example - and it will be interesting to see what the census tells us.

Reduced investment in tourism will bring reduced profit I’ve written many times about the millions of dollars that tourism brings into Prince Rupert each year. Tourism imports customers, generating income for almost every business in town. The benefits spiral out to include everyone who calls Prince Rupert home. These can be both tangible benefits, for those directly employed in retail, hospitality, attractions, and so on (and let’s not forget the summer jobs that allow students to stay in Prince Rupert), to the less tangible benefits such as amenities created for tourism but enjoyed by the community. “Yet, like a stock no one seems to know about,” my friend Rob Gialloreto from Tourism Victoria wrote in the Times Colonist last week, “many ignore the investment opportunity and treat tourism like a test we didn’t study for; we cross our fingers and hope.” But as Rob also pointed out, “Those who work in the tourism industry have never relied on hope.” Tourism Prince Rupert works to

bring visitors. We don’t attempt to Talking tourism Prince Rupert are seen in our key markets. We work profit from tourism. We don’t develop with these people every day, businesses or attractions, hold festivals, and to ensure that we’re or maintain infrastructure. These investing our efforts in the things are the mandate of other local right way, and to ensure that agencies, and local business.

as air access, or land tenure issues. We also maintain open communications with all levels of government to ensure that Prince Rupert’s tourism concerns are remembered when political decisions are made. We work with our member businesses and attractions to help them promote what they have to offer. This is particularly true as marketing changes, and small operators are having to navigate new forms of media in order to retain their share of the profits of tourism. We do all of these things with less and less financial support with each passing year. Since absorbing Tourism BC back into government over two years ago, nothing resembling a concrete provincial tourism plan has been produced, while, at the same time, provincial investment in tourism has been significantly cut back. If this trend is not reversed Prince Rupert – and indeed all of British Columbia – can expect to see a reduction in the amount of money that tourism brings each year.

◆ OP-ED

Gathering the right wines for a great year in 2012 Well it’s the new year and time to set some goals. I have a few wine goals in mind this year. I would really like to taste 100 new wines that I haven’t tried before and I would like for at least 50 of them to be Canadian. So I guess I will be looking to open 2 new bottles a week. I might have to throw a wine tasting party or two and that would help speed things along. One of the most difficult parts for me will be finding all new wines. Many of the Canadian wines found in the stores of retailers around the province are non-vintage wines. This means that the wine doesn’t have a vintage year, and should / will taste the same every time. I will be looking for new vintages of great wines I have tried in the past and I will also be looking at joining some private wine clubs. Wine clubs are available at many commercial wineries in BC. For an annual fee, the winery will ship out

◆ ON THE ICE

Rampage in a tight race for the final CIHL playoff spot By Shaun Thomas The Northern View Saturday’s game against the Kitimat Ice Demons could go a long way in determining whether or not the Prince Rupert Rampage make the CIHL playoffs this year as teams finish up the season. Under the new three-conference division, the top two teams from each division make the playoffs, followed by the two teams with

the next highest number of points, while the two teams with the lowest number of points are left out. The Hazelton Wolverines are unquestionably out of the playoffs and if the playoffs started now the Rampage and the Lac La Hache Tomahawks would be tied for the last playoff spot with 13 points and a tie-breaker would be looked at by the league. The Tomahawks have one game left against the Quesnel Kangaroos on Saturday.

However the play of the Terrae River Kings on Saturday night will play a role as well. Following an 8-2 win over the Ice Demons, the River Kings have a one point lead over the Rampage in the standings, meaning if they can get past the Houston Luckies they are guaranteed a playoff spot. If they lose and Prince Rupert wins, Prince Rupert would be guaranteed a playoff spot by finishing second in the west.

In their last game, played on December 30, the Rampage came out on the wrong end of a 3-1 score against the River Kings. After 20 scoreless minutes, the River Kings opened the scoring with 13:09 to play when Toby Mitchell got one by Keith Movold on the powerplay. That would prove to be all the scoring in the period, giving Terrace a 1-0 lead going into the third. Jeremy Van

Den Broek would add to that lead with 6:16 left to play in the game with another powerplay goal. Jared Meers would pull the Rampage to within one just three minutes later, but Rajan Sangha found the back of the net on the powerplay with just six seconds left in the game to give Terrace the 3-1 win. Look for a details on Saturday’s game and the CIHL playoffs next week.

Results from the 2011 “C”Son Challenge By Martina Perry The Northern View

In the women’s division, The Northern Lights were named the Most Sportsmanlike Team, with Adelia Paul from Kitamaat winning the title of Most Sportsmanlike Player. The final game of the “C”son Challenge was between teams Lights Out and Safeway from the men’s division. The

game ultimately went in Lights Out’s way, with the final score being 80 to 68 for the Lights Out team. Lewis told the Prince Rupert Northern View that he considered most of the men’s teams to be pretty balanced in terms of scoring. In the men’s division, the Lax Kw’alaams Juniors’ received the Most Sportsmanlike Team award, with the Lights Outs’ Craig Rimmer being named the Most Sportsmanlike Player.

Finishing off 2011 in a manner favorable to many Prince Rupert residents, Conrad Lewis and the City of Prince Rupert Recreation Department hosted the 21st annual Festive “C”son Challenge at the Jim Ciccone Civic Centre from Tuesday, December 27 to Friday, December 30. “I think the challenge went very well,” said Conrad Lewis, who has been a main organizer of the annual holiday tournament for the past 21 years. 2011’s Festive “C”son Challenge included 16 teams split up into three divisions: men’s, women’s and 14 and under.

Our beloved father Don passed away peacefully on November 30, just shy of his 81st birthday in Courtney, BC. Predeceased by our mother Lee in 2007, Dad will be lovingly remembered by his children Sandra (Al), Dayle (Frank), Donna (Jim). Ken (Connie), his grandchildren Robyn, Emma, Kate, Dylan, Nico, Julie & Luca and longtime friend and recent companion Donna Y.

250-627-4992

Many people will remember Dad from his years selling life insurance for Mutual Life Assurance Co. of Canada, a job he loved. After he retired Dad started “Sea-Pet Charters” and began his 2nd career as a charter operator, returning to school to get his captain’s papers of which he was very proud.

Have you heard?

“Relick” loved being on the ocean and with mom, and us kids spent most weekends picnicking on Kitson, Carr and Tugwell Islands along with the Curries & Strands and a host of other families. He never tired of taking us to the beach where we cooked Butch’s crabs and ate moms chocolate cake, his favorite.

Annunciation School is accepting applications for the September 2012 - 2013 Kindergarten class.

A gifted athlete Dad played basketball, baseball and curling with his younger brother and best friend Sid, before Sid’s untimely death at age 42. After mom died Dad became a Àxture on the golf course and told us he loved it because it was the one game he could never master. Donna and Dad managed to get in a little traveling in his camper van the last couple of years and Dad was content and a happy camper.

Children must be 5 years of age before December 31, 2012.

Help us celebrate Dad’s life and remember his stories, Àne wit and intelligence on Saturday, January 21, from 1pm – 3pm at the Prince Rupert Golf Club.

Applications can pe picked up at the school office (627 5th Ave West) or download from www.annunciationpr.ca. Deadline for application is January 31, 2012
