KIDS AT PLAY: Young Kodiak Easton shows his excitement over the presence of a goat in the petting enclosure at the Brackendale Fall Fair on Saturday (Sept. 10). Thousands enjoyed a bluebird day at the
much-loved, 17th annual festival, which included music, food, craft booths, a craft and agricultural exhibition, zucchini races and hay rides.
Britannia Creek in the pink... salmon
Return of life to former ‘most
endangered’ stream heralded
as a triumph of will, ingenuity
DAVID BURKE
dburke@squamishchief.com
Mark Angelo, the founder of B.C. Rivers Day and current
chair of both B.C. and World Rivers Day, recalls a time not
that long ago when Britannia Creek ran clear
but lifeless. He could tell it was different from
most others just by sticking his hand into it.
“I remember being on that creek and putting
a hand in the creek, the water had a
funny feeling on your skin. You could tell just
from the feel of the water on your hand that
it just wasn’t right,” Angelo told The Chief on
MARK ANGELO
Tuesday (Sept. 13).
“It was very clear… but the reason that it was so crystal clear
was that it did not support any life. No fish, no vegetation, nothing.”
OPEN HOUSE SATURDAY
Angelo and other conservationists, though, were rejoicing
this week at the news that Britannia Creek — which as far
as anyone knows has been lifeless for about 80 years and as
recently as 2001 was listed as B.C.’s most endangered river
— was found to have between 20 and 50 pink salmon populating
its lower reaches.
The finding, first reported by local environmentalist John Buchanan
and since confirmed by Department of Fisheries and
Oceans (DFO) officials, is being hailed as an environmental
breakthrough and affirmation of the ability of people to clean

Squamish’s first $2 million home sold
Rod Road property
transaction shows
overall value in local
market, realtors say
DAVID BURKE
dburke@squamishchief.com
Despite widespread global economic
uncertainty, things appear to be looking
up for Squamish real-estate prices.
During a week that also saw a group
of more than 50 architects, builders and
investors from Asia pay the town a visit,
Squamish saw its first $2 million home
sale — for a 4,000-square-foot custom
home on a two-acre property at the end
of Rod Road in Brackendale.
The sale eclipses the $1.5 million transaction
for a property on Finch Drive two
years ago, and comes less than six years
after Squamish’s first $1 million home
sale — for a 3,600-square-foot Garibaldi
Highlands in December 2005.
The sale of the Rod Road home closed
on Friday (Sept. 9), Candice Dyer, the
Sea to Sky Real Estate agent who sold
the property, said on Tuesday (Sept. 13).
The sale shows that buyers are starting to
recognize the value offered in the Squamish
market as compared to those to the
north and south, Dyer said.
More and more home potential buyers
now recognize that with improvements
to Highway 99, they’re only 45 to 50 minutes
from Vancouver — at a fraction of
the price of what one would pay in the
Vancouver area, and more accessible to
the city than from, say, the Fraser Valley.
“I think people are starting to recognize
what a superior place this is to live in, and
they’re looking for good value, which we
offer here. It just makes so much more
sense than to go two hours east,” she told
The Chief.
Dyer and Pat Place, managing broker
at Remax Sea to Sky, both said they’ve
seen a marked increase in the number
of potential higher-end buyers looking at
Squamish as a good real-estate value.
“There was a time when many thought
Squamish would never see the first $1
million home sale, let alone a $2 million
sale, but even with slower market conditions
and economic uncertainty in some
countries, savvy home buyers have identified
Squamish as a community that offers
both great value and an unprecedented
lifestyle,” Place said in a statement.
Said Dyer, “It’s (interest from high-end
buyers) at least double from what I’ve
seen in previous year.”
The Rod Road property, which was sold
by its original owners, includes a custom-built
timber frame home, a carriage
house, an in-ground saltwater pool, hot
tub, duck pond and separate workshop.
While realtors also touted the value of
other Squamish homes listed in the $1.3
million to $1.7 million range, it’s not just
higher-end properties that are drawing
interest. Last Thursday (Sept. 8), a group
of 50 architects, home builders and investors
from Japan, Korea and Taiwan
visited Squamish during a tour of the
Lower Mainland, Squamish and Whistler
that was part of a Global Buyers Mission
organized by the B.C. Wood Specialties
Group and the international branch of
the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp.
(CMHC).
The group took in a presentation from
the developers of the Tantalus Crossing
project, a 42-unit townhome project
that’s just underway between Highway
and Tantalus Way.
This is the sixth straight year in which the
Global Buyers’ Mission has visited Squamish,
Gena Belanger of MacDonald Realty
Ltd., which is marketing the units, said on
Tuesday. She said the delegates were impressed
by the value in the Squamish market
as compared to elsewhere nearby.
“They were just blown away by the
town — the views, for one thing, and
the density,” she said. “They could not
believe our population base compared
to where they are. They were excited to
come back and view the product when
it’s completed.”
The units are being offered in the
$350,000 to $400,000 range, Belanger said.
“Squamish is a bargain and people
were excited to see that. When they realized
where we are on pricing per square
foot, they were completely shocked,” she
said. “They had been in Vancouver looking
at projects and they were blown away
to see the value we offer here.”
Sea to Sky School District (District 48) officials this week
named Lisa McCullough as the new superintendent of schools,
effective at an as-yet-undetermined date later this fall.
McCullough, who is currently director of instruction for the
Central Okanagan School District in Kelowna, was named superintendent
in a statement issued by the District 48 board of trustees
on Wednesday (Sept. 14). She replaces Dr. Rick Erickson,
who retired from the post in the spring.
As director of instruction for the Central Okanagan district,
McCullough’s main responsibility is to supervise eight elementary,
two middle, one secondary and one alternate school with
a total student population of 5,500 in grades K through 12. She
also chairs a number of district-wide committees including Quality
Assessment, Human Rights and Health Promoting, officials
said. She has also worked closely with the West Bank First Nation
Council on many aspects of aboriginal education.
Before her appointment to that job, McCullough was principal
of Mount Boucherie Secondary School for which she was recognized
as one of Canada’s Outstanding Principals.
Dallas Cristofoli, who was named District 48 interim superintendent
last month, will continue in that role until McCullough
assumes her new position.
‘Eagles’ Den’ presentations set
An “Eagles’ Den” event — inspired by CBC’s popular “Dragon’s
Den” television show — will take place Thursday (Sept.
22) at 6:30 p.m. at the Squamish Adventure Centre. Earlier this
year, organizers of the Innovation Challenge put out a call for applications
from community groups for funding and expert support
in resolving a problem or challenge. From the list of applications,
organizers have chosen three finalists: the Howe Sound Women’s
Centre, the Squamish Writers’ Group and the Squamish Climate
Action Network’s CAN-Farm. Next Thursday, the judges
will be asked to select one challenge to be featured during the
Inside Edge Innovation Challenge on Oct. 29 at Quest University.
Inside Edge is an industry-funded non-profit organization that
encourages and supports business, entrepreneurs, and ideas in
Squamish’s emerging knowledge-based industry. For more information

www.insideedgebc.org/InnovationChallenge.
Correction
Berry Vrbanovic, a municipal councillor in Kitchener, Ont., is
president of the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM).
Because of an editing error, Mr. Vrbanovic’s first name was misspelled
in the article “Squamish to host workshop,” about an upcoming
women-in-politics forum to be hosted by FCM.
The Chief regrets the error.
Clarification
In the story Crunching Numbers and Taking Names published in
the Sept. 9 Squamish Chief, the article paraphrased the District
of Squamish’s economic sustainability co-ordinator, Dan McRae,
as stating sixteen industries in town employ 90 per cent of the
labour force. McRae got this information from the 2006 Census
of Canada.

Squamish Splash is your local source for hot tubs
Imagine the feeling of slipping into the soothing
waters of a hot tub after a hard day at work
or play, where you can feel your worries and
weariness fade away. Well, that experience can
indeed be yours and to find everything you need
for your hot tub purchase, look no further than
Discovery Way in Squamish. Squamish Splash
opened its doors in June and is delighted to be
your local resource for everything related to hot
tubs.
Co-owners Kath Creery and David Nash, owner
of Splash Nash Spas in Whistler for nearly 20
years, heard feedback over the years from
local residents calling for a hot tub store in
Squamish and took up the challenge. “We did our
research and found that Squamish is a strong
market, with its growing population and endless
recreation, which aligns well with the lifestyle that
is conducive to owning a hot tub and enjoying
a relaxing, daily escape,” said Nash. He added
that they wanted to create a Squamish business
specifically tailored to the needs of Squamish
residents. “We are now the local source for hot
tubs and pools.”
And thus far the response from the community
has been amazing, said Nash. Situated on the
corner in a brand new building on Discovery Way,
Nash feels it’s an ideal spot in the industrial park
and that it’s an exciting time with the other new
businesses moving in. “We had a strong opening
so word has definitely spread that we are open to
serve the local community.”
This weekend (Sept 17 and 18) Squamish Splash
will be holding its ”No HST Sale”, located in the
parking lot of Canadian Tire at Garibaldi Mall from
9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on both days. Splash Nash Spas
has held this sale as an annual event for the past
four years. Squamish Splash will continue the
tradition again this year.
Explains Nash, “The Canadian Tire sale will allow
us to reach those that are not yet aware that we
have a new, full-service showroom in Squamish
and provides an additional space to showcase our
extensive line of hot tubs by Maax Spas. The sale
will extend to the new showroom as well.
“It’s a No HST sale – we’re going to pay the HST,
which is a significant savings on a new hot tub.
PAID ADVERTORIAL
Dave Nash, Katharine Creery, Randy Marohn of
Squamish Splash hot tubs.
We’re bringing in our manufacturer, Maax Spas,
with an entire truckload of hot tubs so we’ll have a
great selection for the public to view and choose
from.”
So whether you are looking for a family-sized hot
tub for a group to socialize in, or a smaller model
for a more intimate hot tub experience, Squamish
Splash has the hot tub for you and the industry
experience to back it up. With over 20 years of
hot tub sales and service expertise, not only do
they sell and service hot tubs in Squamish, they
also offer maintenance packages, chemicals,
accessories and free water testing.
“There are models and sizes to fit everybody’s
space and budget needs”, said Nash, adding that
the two-person hot tub, which is designed to fit
on a small deck, has been very popular for condo
owners in Squamish.
“We want people to come out and see our showroom
and see what we have to offer,” said Nash.
With a team of friendly faces to greet you and
to answer any questions you may have, head on
down to check out their stunning showroom.
Squamish Splash is located at 39149 Discovery
Way in Squamish. For more information please

Cougar shootings a tough choice: CO
Big cats became a
public safety threat,
local officer says
REBECCA ALDOUS
raldous@squamishchief.com
Money needs to be invested to give
conservation officers more tools to
help them avoid bringing out the shotgun,
says a wildlife researcher.
Last weekend, three cougars were
killed in the Garbaldi Highlands after
they continually ventured into neighbourhoods
and showed no signs of fear of
people. The government provides a limited
amount of funding to study endangered
or rare species, but it is difficult to
get grants to examine common wildlife,
such as cougars and bears, said Sarah
Dubois, manager of wildlife services for
the Society of Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
(SPCA).
“[Shooting the cougars] solves this incident
now, but what do we do to prevent
another one from happening?” she said.
“Maybe we should be figuring that out so
it doesn’t happen again.”
Staff at the Ministry of Forests, Lands
and Natural Resource Operations estimate
there are between 5,150 to 7,000
cougars in the province, but Dubois noted
there have been no recent population
studies. The Province and researchers
assume the B.C. cougar population is
healthy through counts and observations
gathered by hunters, she said, adding
that cougars are a hunted species.
Big cats venturing into town sparks a lot
of questions, Dubois said. They could be
having difficulty finding deer or simply following
them. The cougars might not be
afraid of people because hazing tactics
haven’t been used against them, Dubois
said, or they could simply be attracted to
SUBMITTED PHOTO BY JIM SANDFORD
Squamish resident Jim Sandford had a few visits from these two cougars over the last couple
of weeks. Deeming them a threat to public safety, conservation officers shot them last weekend.
family pets because they are an easier
catch. Cougars are prey-driven, she said.
Destroying animals is not a decision
conservation officers take lightly, said
Insp. Chris Doyle, the lead conservation
officer for the Sea to Sky Corridor.
On Friday (Sept. 9) at around 8:30 p.m.,
conservation officers were called to a
house in the Garibaldi Highlands, where
a cougar was lounging in a home’s backyard.
Based on this summer’s cougar
reports, it was determined the cougar
should be destroyed, Doyle said.
The next day, two more cougars were
shot, all in separate incidents. Officials
believe the cats were a mother and her
two yearlings, Doyle said, noting that all
were healthy, full-grown cougars.
“[Killing animals] is not a decision that
we take lightly and it is not something
that we want to do, but on the other hand
we are mandated to protect public safety,
as well as protecting wildlife,” Doyle said.
This cougar family showed no fear of
people, he noted. On the morning of Aug.
26, two cougars were found eating the
remains of a household cat in front of a
home on Tantalus Road. The next night
a pair of cougars was spotted outside a
house on Bluebird Place playing with the
owner’s shoes. In both cases, the cats
weren’t easily scared off by the homes’
occupants.
“We did get a report of one of them
stalking somebody the day before [the
first shooting],” Doyle added.
An aggressive cougar caused the closure
of several recreational trails near
Alice Lake in mid-August. Two months
earlier, a cougar also spooked a cyclist
in Crumpit Woods, which led to the creation
of a cougar patrol for the June 18
Test of Metal bike race.
The animals are usually elusive and secretive,
Doyle said. Conservation officers
would not have shot the cats if they had
occasionally entered municipal areas or
even grabbed a house cat, but these cougars’
behaviour was unusual, he said.
“It appeared like they were going out
of their way to encounter people, as opposed
to just being in the same place as
them,” Doyle said.
Last week’s incident marks the first cougars
to be destroyed in the area this year.
This summer, one cat was also hit and
killed on the Sea to Sky Highway. So far,
Squamish conservation officers have received
145 reports of cougar sightings, the
most of any municipality in the province.

Police arrest suspect
in Royal Bank robbery
Weekly briefs from
the Squamish RCMP
Squamish RCMP last week arrested a
man in connection with the recent
robbery of the local branch of Royal Bank.
The robbery occurred last Tuesday (Sept. 6)
at 3:30 p.m., when a man entered the bank and
produced a note stating that he was armed
with a gun and demanding money. The suspect
escaped by bicycle after having been given
an undisclosed amount of cash.
Afterward, police issued a pair of photographs
taken from bank surveillance video to the media.
Late Thursday (Sept. 8), authorities said they
were looking for Christopher David Prokopchuk,
who was wanted on a Canada-wide warrant for
parole violations and, according to the statement
from RCMP Sgt. Wayne Pride, “may be in the
Squamish area.” Prokopchuk was also wanted
for a bank robbery in Vernon, during which he
allegedly produced a handgun, Pride said.
On Friday (Sept. 9), police stated that Prokopchuk,
who was a suspect in the Royal Bank robbery,
had been located and arrested without incident
in the downtown area. He was slated to
appear in court on Thursday (Sept. 15).
Homes entered,
electronics stolen
Police received two reports of home
break-and-enters near The Boulevard in
Garibaldi Highlands on Monday (Sept. 12),
with similar results. In one instance, a home in
the 2000 block was entered through a bathroom
window between 8 a.m. and 1 p.m. Stolen were
several cameras and camera equipment.
Between 10 and 11:45 a.m., another home
in the same area was broken into, possibly
through an unsecured back door. Stolen were
a laptop computer, a number of cameras and
a DVD players, Pride said. An occupant of the
home phoned The Chief and appealed to the
perpetrators to return the items, or at least the
data contained therein, as it was of great personal
value and was not backed up.
Assault charge pending
RCMP responded to an alleged assault
in the 30000 block of Government Road
on Friday (Sept. 9). A 26-year-old Squamish
man is being charged with assault with a
weapon after having attacked another with a
broom, causing injury.
Bear reminder issued
Police reminded residents to be diligent in
keeping garbage and other attractants secured
after a number of reports of bears having
become habituated to garbage and human
presence, particularly downtown.
Fraud warning
Police received a report of a male calling a
home claiming to be from Telus, trying to diagnose
computer problems in the area. The
caller asked the homeowner to turn on the
home’s computer and provide an IP address.
The caller was persistent, calling the owner
four times over five days and attempting to get
the information.
Telus officials advised police that they do not
use this method of diagnosing computer or Internet
problems. Pride asked the public not to
provide any personal information and to report
any similar incidents to Squamish RCMP
at (604) 892-6100 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-
222-8477.

Skyline Drive hazardous
for pedestrians: Lonsdale
Route to port
area highlighted
in 20-year traffic
pattern study
REBECCA ALDOUS
raldous@squamishchief.com
It’s a good news story, says
the District of Squamish’s
manager of engineering.
But there are a couple areas
of concern.
Traffic is running smoothly
through Squamish and
should for the next 20 years,
Brian Barnett said. On Tuesday
(Sept. 13), Barnett presented
the municipality’s
Multi-Modal Transportation
Plan — a report that examines
local, regional and commercial
transportation — to
council at its Committee of
the Whole meeting. The plan
adds to work completed in
the 2009 Downtown Transportation
Plan, Barnett said.
It aims to guide decision
making for future councils.
The new Sea to Sky Highway
is big enough to
avoid significant congestion
until at least
2031, Barnett said.
Highway congestion
is only anticipated to
occur at a few intersections
on Fridays
and Sundays during
peak travel months. In total,
the slowdowns amount to approximately
70 hours, or two
per cent of daytime driving
hours in a year, Barnett noted.
“There is lots of capacity on
the highway,” he said.
One area that may hit a
bumpy road in the future is
CORINNE LONSDALE
commercial transportation
travelling to and from Squamish
Terminals.
The route to the port is expected
to require significant
modifications as Squamish’s
oceanfront is developed
and public access to the
Mamquam Blind Channel is
opened up, Barnett said. The
new 353-page report outlines
this concern as a “heads up.”
“We didn’t want to spend
the money or time on looking
at something that isn’t a problem
today,” Barnett
said.
The plan recommended
the district
spend $100,000 annually
to upgrade
and expand cycling
routes. This mode of
transportation is relatively
under-used in Squamish,
which is likely due to
limited route coverage and
lack of continuity, which discourages
cycling as a viable
transportation alternative,
the report notes.
The plan also suggested
the district budget $100,000
to improve pedestrian infrastructure.
Although downtown
Squamish is relatively
pedestrian friendly, the rest
of the community features
few pedestrian amenities,
the report noted. Safe routes
to school should be a primary
consideration when establishing
pedestrian and cycling
priorities, it states.
Coun. Corinne Lonsdale
questioned why Skyline Drive
wasn’t highlighted as an area
to improve among the “safe

routes to school” outline. A
lot of Garibaldi Highlands Elementary
students use the
road to get to school. With no
sidewalk, the drive is dangerous
for pedestrians and cyclists,
Lonsdale said.
“It is putting the kids on the
road the entire distance,” she
said.
It’s an area staff will examine,
Barnett told Lonsdale.
The plan highlights a lot of
synergies between transportation
sources and routes that
can be capitalized on down
the road, said Kevin Ramsay,
the district’s chief administrative
officer.
“It is not going to take a lot
of money to make this transportation
plan work,” he said.

Expressions of Interest - Collection of Household Yard Waste
The District of Squamish currently contracts a curbside collection program for household
residual waste, along with comingled recycling, using two different totes on an alternating
biweekly schedule.
The District is interested in adding the collection of Green Waste, using similar or other
approved methods, and is seeking responses from interested and qualified proponents.
The proposal is to collect yard waste during the gardening season, and deliver to the sorting
area at the Landfill on Squamish Valley Road, or the composting facility at Whistler, or another
approved location for an approved use.
Such approval would be by the District but possibly also through the Ministry of Environment
http://www.env.gov.bc.ca/epd/mun-waste/regs/omrr/pdf/land-app-guidelines.pdf if the
proposed use was deemed to be a new composting operation.
The collection is proposed to take place from April 1st through October 31st, 2012.
The method of collection and the highest end use, will form part of the evaluation of the
responses.
At the end of the 2012 season the program will be evaluated to determine the amount of
material diverted from the landfill, the costs involved and the net benefit of the program.

Pacific ’quake rolls
through Squamish
DISTRICT OF
SQUAMISH
Magnitide-6.4 temblor
prompts evacuation
of Howe Sound
Secondary School
H I E F S TA F F
Curtains and telephone cords swayed in Squamish
on Friday (Sept. 9) during a strong
earthquake whose epicentre was off the west
coast of Vancouver Island.
The United States Geological Survey (USGS)
survey reported that the temblor, which measured
magnitude 6.4 on the Richter scale, occurred
at 12:41 p.m. The quake’s epicentre was
138 kilometres (86 miles) west of Campbell River
and 25.9 km (16.1 miles) below the Earth’s surface,
according to a USGS online report.
Beryl Taylor, deputy coordinator for the Squamish
Emergency Program, said, “That’s why I
guess we felt the rolling because it’s quite a ways
off and quite deep. I’m not quite sure what the
proper term for that is, but we would refer to that
as a rolling quake.”
The magnitude was initially reported as 6.7, but
was changed to 6.4 after a geologist’s review of
the data.
Howe Sound Secondary School officials safely
evacuated students from the school just after
the ’quake occurred, Principal Christine Perkins
wrote in an email to parents.
“The school experienced shocks from the
earthquake on Vancouver Island just prior to 1
p.m. today, Sept. 9, 2011,” Perkins wrote. “All students
and staff were evacuated safely. After confirmation
from public authorities we returned to
normal school operations.”
The earthquake’s epicentre was in the area
of the Juan de Fuca fault, which runs between
what geologists call the Juan de Fuca and North
American tectonic plates to form the Cascadia
subduction zone. It’s an area where small- to medium-sized
earthquakes occur quite frequently.
Quest’s incoming enrolment rises
Total student
figure hits 350
Quest University’s incoming
class is 51 per cent larger
than last year’s, pushing the
four-year-old university’s total
enrolment to 350 students, officials
announced this week.
One-hundred forty-six students
make up the incoming
class that has enrolled at the
university this fall, officials said
in a statement issued on Sept. 8.
“We are certainly thrilled to
see such a significant increase
in enrolment this year,” said
David J. Helfand, president
of Quest. “It is a testament to
how hard our faculty and staff
have worked to fulfill the vision
of this new university over
the past four years. It is a very
encouraging indication that
this marvellous experiment is
working, and the secret is out.”
Quest graduated its first class
this past April, with degrees bestowed
upon 49 people who
took a huge leap of faith in deciding
to attend a university that
barely existed, officials said.
Twenty-one countries are
represented in the incoming
class, with 43 per cent from
Canada, 35 per cent from the
U.S., and the rest including students
from Bangladesh, Bolivia,
China, Ecuador, France,
Germany, Hong Kong, Indonesia,
Jamaica, Kenya, Mali,
Netherlands, Nepal, Sweden,
Singapore, Thailand, Taiwan,
the U.K. and Venezuela.

Aqua project affecting local apartment market
More than half
of project’s units
still up for grabs
REBECCA ALDOUS
raldous@squamishchief.com
For the second time in the
development’s lifetime,
Jill Carter is gearing up to sell
Aqua’s carriage homes and
units.
“We had 80 per cent of the
tower sold once already,” the
Remax Sea to Sky Real Estate
agent said while walking
through the hallway of the
114-unit condominium complex.
The development hit murky
waters 18 months ago. At the
time, the bank backing the
project decided to pull its support.
The then proponent,
Thomas Ivanore, blamed
the bank’s withdrawal on
the economic downturn and
Squamish council’s decision
not to allow 55 condos to replace
the development’s 16
townhouses.
In December 2009, the Bowra
Group Inc. was appointed
receiver of the project’s assets.
The financial advisory services
firm secured funding to complete
construction of Phases 2
and 3 of the development. The
work was handed to Mierau
Contractors Ltd.
The development’s history
seems to be stigma in Squamish
residents’ minds, Carter

said, something she is battling
as she gets ready to resell the
units.
“We definitely want to educate
people on the project and
its engineering,” she said.
Approximately 40 per cent of
sales to date are to Squamish
residents, Carter said, noting
all the original deposits were
returned. A lot of the initial buyers
were investors, she said.
With the economic downturn,
they’ve disappeared, but Carter
is hoping for a strong local
buying force this time around.
So far, 64 of the 114 condos
remain on the market, ranging
in price from $239,000 to
$390,000. Sixteen of the 35
carriage homes are up for
grabs, which all fall between
$339,000 and $379,000. Remax,
the team dealing with
the units, expects to have
them all sold by next July, Carter
said.
The project is a big benefit
to the community, Carter
said. Once sold, the development
represents housing for
more than 100 individuals.
Although the receivership
sale doesn’t seem to be affecting
Squamish’s singlefamily
or townhouse listings,
it has created a drop in prices
for the condominium market,
said Lisa Bjornson, Royal
LePage Black Tusk Realty
agent.
“Aqua may be impacting
the retail sale of apartments,”
she said.
The Multiple Listing Service
indicated that last year, between
January to August, of the
146 apartments on the market
in Squamish, 50 sold. This year,
over the same time period, 148
apartments are for sale, but
only 29 units have sold.
The number of detached single-family
houses for sale in
Squamish is up six compared
to last year — 348.
“There is not much variation
in the listing inventory,” Bjornson
noted.
Of the houses on the market,
123 now have new owners.
Last year, 125 sales took place.

playground will rise again.
On Tuesday (Sept. 13), the District of Squamish
council voted to spend $25,000 to replace
the playground, which was destroyed in
a blaze in August. The play structure was rebuilt
in 2008 after it was torched in June 2007.
Insurance companies won’t cover playgrounds,
said Scott Lamont, the municipality’s
parks supervisor. With that in mind, district
staff will try to purchase a playground
made from the most fire resistant material
possible, such as steel.
But, it is difficult to find a structure that’s
free of plastic parts, Lamont warned.
The last blaze was intentionally set to be a
very hot, Lamont said. Mayor Greg Gardner
noted initial police reports stated an accelerant
was used. Only a small remnant of the
playground’s plastic slide remained and some
of the metal components were warped. The
Squamish RCMP has since stepped up its
patrols in the park, Lamont said, as has the
neighbourhood’s community watch group.
“Hopefully this doesn’t happen again and
we are going to strive to make sure it doesn’t,”
he said.
The district’s intention is good, said Coun.
Corinne Lonsdale, but she questioned whether
it was wise to dump more money into a
playground that wasn’t completely fireproof.
“We just can’t keep throwing $25,000 at this
park every second year,” she said.
Lonsdale suggested the district save more
money and build a structure that isn’t subject
to fire, such as a water park. The community
has long wanted a water park and Pat Goode
Park could be a prime location for it, she said.
With no voiced support from council, Lonsdale’s
idea fell flat. With the exception of Lonsdale,
council voted to rebuild the playground.
The $25,000 sum will be withdrawn from the
district’s $85,928.71 contingency fund.
“The project is dear to a lot of people’s
hearts in the community,” Lamont said.

Salmon return to B.C.’s ‘most endangered’ stream
CONTINUED FROM PAGE A1
up and rehabilitate dead and dying waterways
through restoration and environmental mitigation.
Angelo said a media blitz to celebrate the
achievement is planned on Sept. 25 — B.C. Rivers
Day 2011.
“It could be 80 years, it could be 90 years, but
the bottom line is this is the first time we’ve seen
salmon documented and it is exciting,” said Angelo,
chair of the Rivers Institute at B.C. Institute
of Technology. “This is something that a few
years ago, no one would have thought possible.
“What’s unfolding in Britannia right now is truly
a sign of hope, that if we keep working to clean
up these systems, we can make a difference.”
The creek’s lower reaches were effectively
rendered lifeless during the first half of the
20th century. Activity at Britannia copper mine,
which opened in 1904 and by 1930 was the largest
copper mine in the British Commonwealth,
left behind sulphur-bearing waste product that
created liquid sulphuric acid, which in turn dissolved
large amounts of harmful heavy metals,
including — not surprisingly — copper.
The heavy metals — an estimated 450 kilograms
of it every day at the peak of mining activity
— leached into the creek, killing off all
manner of plant and animal life.
“The PH level was the same, apparently, as
the surface of Mars. That was a comparison
that was made at one point in time,” said Buchanan,
who spotted the first pink salmon in
the creek about three weeks ago and has returned
to find ever-increasing numbers on subsequent
checks.
“We found life on Britannia Creek. Perhaps
there’s hope for Mars now.”
Rob Bell-Irving, DFO community advisor for
the Sea to Sky Corridor, on Friday (Sept. 9)
said that until the past couple of weeks, officials
knew that the creek’s aquatic environment
was steadily improving, to the point
where trout — mostly cutthroat but also a few
rainbows — were making their way into the
creek’s lower reaches.
PHOTO BY JOHN BUCHANAN/SPECIAL TO THE CHIEF
Pink salmon swim upstream in Britannia Creek last week — marking this year as the first one in which
salmon have been found in the creek in more than 80 years. Conservationists are hailing the species’
return as a triumph of will and people’s ability to aid in the rehabilitation of natural aquatic systems.
The discovery of pink salmon in the creek
only confirms that it’s possible for the creek to
come all the way back, he said. While a number
of factors have contributed to the rehabilitation
process, Bell-Irving said the biggest
is the water treatment plant built after public
pressure brought the provincial government
and former mine operators to the table with
the necessary $60 million in funding — the
linchpin in one of the largest environmental
clean-ups in Canadian history.
Construction of the plant began just a month
after that last “most endangered river” listing
in 2001, and was completed in 2005, officials
said. A “plug” placed in the mine in 2001
helped slow the flow of toxic elements, and
the treatment plant effectively neutralizes the
remaining effluent before it’s discharged back
into nature, officials said.
It appears there’s some disagreement in the
fisheries/scientific community about the main
reasons behind the creek’s resurgence. After
The Chief’s story first appeared online on
Thursday (Sept. 14), Dr. John Meech, director
of the UBC Centre for Environmental Research
in Minerals, Metals and Mining (UBC-CERM3),
commented that what’s known as the “Millennium
Plug” has played a much more significant
role in the creek’s recovery than has the
water treatment plant.
“It was the installation of the… Millennium
Plug research station in December 2001 that
eliminated all pollution flowing into the Britannia
Creek Watershed and ultimately into the
surface waters of Howe Sound,” Meech wrote.
“The [plant] certainly changed the ecology of
Howe Sound for the better but it played no role
in [the] restoration of the creek.”
UBC-CERM3 officials headed up the installation
of the Millennium Plug and are proud to
have played a significant role in the creek’s restoration,
Meech wrote.
Angelo said it’s not just the creek that was
dead before the remediation work began. He
took up diving a couple of decades ago and
used to occasionally dive into Howe Sound
near Britannia Creek’s outflow. The ocean
floor around the creek’s mouth was essentially
lifeless for between one and two kilometres
into the sound.
“As you approached the outlet, the area right
in and around the creek, there were no crabs,
no shellfish, no vegetation. It was just a dead
zone, very much a moonscape,” he said.
Both Angelo and Bell-Irving said the cessation
of the discharge and the return of life to
Britannia Creek is part of a much bigger success
story — the return of ecological health to
most of Howe Sound. Over the past couple of
years, it has led Pacific white-sided dolphins,
orcas and other species of whales to begin returning
to the sound.
“We’ve seen new sewage treatment facilities
on Bowen Island. We’ve seen improved sewage
treatment at the Port Mellon pulp mill; we’ve
seen great work by local streamkeeper groups
to improve habitat for herring,” Angelo said.
Bell-Irving said the Britannia Beach community
also deserves credit for throwing its full
support behind the clean-up effort.
“There’s a strong message here — when you
have a wonderful community like Britannia
Beach, a group of honest and hard-working people,
it’s a very soulful community… anywhere
where we have that kind of community spirit, it’s
always possible to bring back salmon,” he said.
Buchanan said the return of salmon to the
creek could also be what he called a “gamechanger”
for all manner of development in the
area — including both run-of-river power and
land development.
Just two months ago, an official with Mac-
Donald Development Corp., which is redeveloping
and revitalizing the community’s commercial
area, was quoted in the media as having
said that of all the bureaucratic hoops through
which the developer has to jump, “The fisheries
is one of the most frustrating because there are
no fish but we still have to do due diligence…”
Now that there are fish in the creek, “we have
to make sure from a development perspective
that those new fish stocks and the run-off into the
stream is going to be taken care of,” Angelo said.
He added, “This is a good-news story and one
I think that’s worth celebrating… It just highlights
the importance of doing what’s needed
and that we can, in fact, turn things around if
those right steps are taken.”

Fondo post-mortem
THE ISSUE:
GranFondo
WE SAY:
Event merits
support, but
better communication
needed
Whatever your position on the traffic hassles associated with
the GranFondo event that rolled through Squamish on
Saturday (Sept. 10), you’ve got to admit that having 7,000
cyclists ride through town on a marathon cycling adventure
— on a bluebird September day, no less — is great exposure for Squamish
and the entire Sea to Sky Corridor. If we’re to live up to the title Outdoor
Recreation Capital of Canada, after all, we need to embrace opportunities
to showcase what our town and the region have to offer, and by all
accounts, the 2011 GranFondo certainly delivered in that regard.
Could organizers of the event have done a better job of consulting the
community and communicating the planned traffic delays and the closure of
highway crossings for the event? Absolutely. Could they take steps to provide
some direct benefit to the community in addition to the benefits that aren’t as
easy to quantify? Yes, no doubt about it.
Last week, Coun. Corinne Lonsdale voiced the concern that planning for the
GranFondo only hit council chambers a few days before the event — after
organizers publicized their transportation plans and the public approached
the mayor and council with concerns about it. While we realize the provincial
Ministry of Transportation is responsible for issues surrounding our town’s
primary north-south traffic corridor, simply seeking input from DOS staff on
the proposed closures and delays strikes us as inadequate. It seems to this
writer that a public open house, a couple of months before the event, would
only turn into a shouting match while producing little. But there’s undoubtedly
a need for more public consultation, and to
this writer’s mind, DOS staff and GranFondo
organizers should have brought the
issue before our elected representatives for
input, sometime before their August break.
In the meantime, we think the suggestion
of Chief reader Marie Wilson (“Give
something back, Fondo,” Letters) — that
organizers donate $1 from every race entry
fee to the local food bank — is a splendid
idea. Organizers should also consider
talking to the organizers of a much-loved
event that took place on the same day
— the Brackendale Fall Fair — and make a
donation to the Brackendale Farmers’
Institute. While they’re at it, the two groups
could try to reach an understanding on the
placement of Fall Fair signs along the
highway. Was it really necessary to remove
those signs? As long as they didn’t obstruct traffic, probably not.
It’s hard to believe someone could be so juvenile as to toss thumb tacks in
the racers’ path just north of Alice Lake. We don’t have to tell anyone what
could happen under the circumstances, and if it did, we would fully support
authorities’ efforts to find and prosecute the person or persons responsible.
The place to voice one’s displeasure about traffic hassles, after all, is in the
Letters to the Editor and online comments, not by taking actions that put
others’ life and property in danger.

Negotiations and love songs
Negotiations and love songs
Are often mistaken for one and
the same.
— Paul Simon “Train in the
Distance”
Relationships can be difficult. I
understand that. They take
negotiation, compromise
and more than a little
humility if they’re to be successful.
And some partners, it seems, don’t
want to try that. They enjoy a fiery,
combative partnership that seems to
thrive on conflict.
I’m thinking that the provincial
government and the B.C. Teachers’
Federation (BCTF) fall into that
second category. Call me jaded and
cynical or just old and crotchety, but it
baffles me that every time we
teachers and the government sit
down to negotiate a contract, it has to
come to a pissing match.
Since the government-mandated
provincial bargaining in 1994, teachers
had not been able to come to a
negotiated settlement until our last
round in 2005-’06. And that “negotiated”
settlement was really the result
of an illegal strike that the teachers
held in the fall of 2005 and a mediated
settlement that neither side had the
option to reject.
Maybe I’m just naïve. Maybe this is
the way that labour negotiations have
to work, but it seems to me that there’s
a whole industry being sustained
through these “crises.” Lots of
high-priced help on both the government’s
and the union’s side seem to
enjoy stoking these fires of discontent.
IN THE WINDS
PAUL DEMERS
Someone once told me that in any
dysfunctional relationship, each side
can assume 30 per cent of the
responsibility for the problems and the
other 40 per cent percent is open to
debate. I think that the government’s
agent BCPSEA (B.C. Public School
Employers’ Association) can claim
most of that 40 per cent. They are
being obstinate and seem to be
coming to the table with nothing.
If the BCTF has to take any blame it
is, from my point of view, in being a
little too coy. Lots of the chattering
from pundits suggests that teachers
don’t care about students, and the
union counters that its mandate is to
protect public education.
Hogwash on both counts. Teachers
do care deeply about students and
demonstrate that every day in their
classrooms. They are professional,
they work extra hours, and they spend
their own money to subsidize the
system. The union wraps itself in this
goodwill and tries to present itself as
the only body that cares about public
education. For the union to suggest
that the government doesn’t care
about public education is disingenuous,
and I think that depiction takes
away from the union’s case.
I pay my union dues for one purpose:
to protect my interests — not the
students’ or the taxpayers’. Fortunately,
many times there’s overlap. If the
union is trying to negotiate class-size
guarantees, there is a benefit to
students. From a public relations
perspective, of course, it’s easier for
the union to say that they’re doing all
this for the kids, but the union’s motive
better be because it improves my
working conditions. I wish they’d cut
the righteous tone, stop playing the
martyr, and just say that they’re
working for teachers.
Who knows
where this latest
crisis will end.
We do know,
though, that this
arranged
marriage
between the
government
and the
teachers’ union
can’t be
annulled.
Although it
seems to be a
quarrel every
I wish they’d cut
the righteous
tone, stop
playing the
martyr, and just
say that they’re
working for the
teachers.
time we communicate, we have to
live together. The only thing we can
hope is that sooner or later both
sides will stop and listen to one
another.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Keep Brohm
Lake clean
EDITOR,
I know Squamish is filling
up with urban neurotics and
their pets but they should
know that the EPA and many
state and local agencies are
learning and reporting on
the dangers and effects of
dog waste on waterways.
The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) even
estimates that two or three
days’ worth of droppings
from a population of about
100 dogs would contribute
enough bacteria to temporarily
close a bay, and all
watershed areas within 20
miles of it, to swimming and
shell fishing. Keep Brohm
Lake human-friendly.
JOE GOSS
Squamish
‘Hostage’
problem averted
EDITOR,
That was amazing. The
whole GranFondo experience
was something to
enjoy and relive. Quite the
experience and something
to think about for next year
— because there’s going to
be a next year. And probably
the years after that.
Despite the doomsday
predictions from a few disgruntled
locals, and inflammatory
comments from one
of our elected officials (“We
will not be held hostage,”
which I believe was either
preceded or followed by “The
sky is falling, the sky is falling”)
it appears no one was
held hostage and life went
on with nary a hiccup. Unless
you count 7,000+ bikers
rolling through beautiful
Squamish on a gorgeous
day as a hiccup. I consider it
amazing exposure to a whole
bunch of people with a fair
bit of disposable income.
Possibly not a bad thing.
One bad thing was that
some moron scattered thumb
tacks on the highway in the
Alice Lake area, probably to
prove a point. What might
that point have been? That
we can rival anyone when
it comes to stupidity? That
putting someone in hospital
evens the score because you
had to change your schedule?
One friend of mine ended
up with a broken collarbone
as a direct result of a flat tire.
Another had his front tire
mysteriously explode around
Alice Lake. Another carried a
tack some distance before he
flatted. What if he’d flatted on
a high speed descent? Would
the score be even when
someone is injured or worse?
Try looking at it with an
open mind rather than
through bitter lenses. A freak
snowstorm could paralyze
most of Squamish for a day,
but no one would be crying
about being held hostage.
No one would be writing letters
about how unfair it is.
Everyone, or most everyone,
would adjust to the new situation
and life would go on.
Everything changes. You
can be a part of that change
or waste your time fighting
it. If you have an issue
with what’s happened in
town with the Fondo coming
through, look for a solution.
Stop complaining and
stop vandalizing and try to
make things better — for
yourself and the cyclists
who’ll be back next year.
ALEX HARRIS
Squamish
Sad day for
Squamish
EDITOR,
It was with a very heavy
heart I read the news about
three cougars being destroyed
in Squamish the other day.
I can only reflect on Brian
Vincent’s letter to the editor
last week (“Cougar conflict
avoidance tips,” Chief, Sept.
9). We have so much to learn
about co-existing with the
other species on this planet.
As Brian outlined, there are
several ways to make these
encounters less likely. It just
involves us making an effort
to change our ways and the
way we view wildlife. Wildlife
is not just an inconvenience;
they are a necessary part of
the greater ecological web,
which is vital for the very
existence of this planet.
Some of us were lucky
enough to grow up with cougars
and bears. Our parents
did not even think about having
them killed; they taught
us how to protect ourselves
and what to do when we
had an encounter. I’m surprised
any of us survived
amid such constant danger.
Of course at that time, we
didn’t have over-protective
parents or the media sensationalizing
every story to sell
papers and inflict paranoia.
For those who chose to
move from the city to the
country to raise their children
and play in the forest, did you
not consider that it meant being
close to nature and wild
animals at times? For those
who chose to live as close to
the forest as possible or have
their dream home with a
lovely stream out back, here’s
a reality check… you will
have wildlife in your yard.
As we continue to develop
with no thought to animal
corridors and connectivity,
where do you think the animals
are going to go? And if
you keep throwing fluffy little
meals outside for them… you
think they won’t eat? Unfortunately,
the animals want to
wander in the valley bushland
to forage for food, and
even more unfortunately, we
continue to develop what’s
left of that habitat. They cannot
survive in treed areas
with no underbrush or food
sources. I guess we could
always put up signs to direct
them to the places they are
“supposed” to go, but where
exactly is a cougar “supposed”
to go when we move into his
world? And even more important,
what language should
the signs be printed in? Sign
language? With little kitty
paws? The only way to steer
wildlife to safe passage is not
to give them any reason to
hang around. We frequently
have bears in our yard, but
with no attractants, they simply
sniff around and leave.
We have come to the point
where we refuse to change
our habits and prefer to kill
off anything that might some
day, no matter how obscurely,
interfere with our daily lives.
We cannot protect ourselves
from every possible danger on
the planet; we can only live as
carefully as we can. More of
us will be killed by other human
activity than by animals,
and if we are attacked by an
animal and know what to do,
then chances are pretty good
we will survive. If we changed
our habits and learned to
accept each other’s presence,
encounters would be
few and in only a few rare
cases would a rogue animal
need to be destroyed.
At the rate we are going,
our children will never get
to appreciate animals in the
wild. The only ones they
will see will be in zoos…
at least the ones that are
lucky enough not to be destroyed
for simply existing.
MARY MITCHELL
Squamish
Officers’ actions
‘necessary’
EDITOR,
Seven-thirty p.m., Friday
night, location: backyard
patio. Ruth and I were summarizing
each other’s events
of the day over a glass of
Sandhill Chard when all of
a sudden a very loud command
hollered across from
our neighbour’s yard.
“Joe, go back inside,
now!” The instructions were
clear, loud and precise.
Richard had given us fresh
trout over the fence before,
but never yelled at us.
Something was up! Had
he not also been one of our
clients as well as next door
neighbour, I would have
promptly returned the fish
and told him to get stuffed.
Nevertheless, in our usual
obedient manner, we
went inside to take a closer
look from one of the upstairs
windows to see what
all the fuss was about.
The cat was back! It was
only a week or so ago when
we saw her last. This time
she chose our neighbour’s
backyard. She so clearly
made the wrong choice
with place and time as she
stared down the hollow barrels
of two 12-gauge shotguns.
The neatly uniformed
conservation officers were
only doing their jobs. However,
it was two against one.
She looked confused and
frightened. A few minutes
later we heard the shots.
Why did she choose to return?
There were no steaks
on the barbecue. Our wiener
dogs, Porsche and Cooper,
were nestled inside and it
couldn’t have been Ruth’s
freshly ripened tomatoes.
As we dealt with the sadness
of witnessing this
event, we also knew how
necessary this kill was for
the safety of our neighbourhood.
We live on a
street with young children
who freely play with their

It is irresponsible for those
who argue that we are the
ones encroaching on their
territory, and therefore must
accept their presence in cohabitation.
This particular
cougar was aggressive and
showed no fear for humans.
This was a humane act
swiftly executed by professionals
with enviable courage
and I am relieved the
cat is gone. Now, let’s fire up
the BBQ, crack a cold one
and enjoy those steaks.

Give something
back, Fondo
EDITOR,
The organizers of the
GranFondo want Squamish
citizens to look on this
event in a kindlier fashion.
The traffic situation… is an
inconvenience for those trying
to get to and from shift
work locally and in Whistler.
However, if you could
pass on this helpful hint
for next year. Why couldn’t
each of the participants
donate $1 to our local food
bank? I personally would
wave and cheer on all
those charitable GranFondo
folks if it was beneficial
to our town’s less fortunate
brothers and sisters.

Garibaldi Highlands
‘Quiet continuity’
reigns in Brackendale
Last Saturday (Sept. 10),
with radiant sunshine
gracing a bluebird sky,
local residents and visitors
from afar flocked to the
Brackendale Fall Fair in the
Brackendale Farmers Institute
Park on Government Road.
When it comes to local
happenings it doesn’t get
much better than this annual
celebration of our community’s
heritage.
A hundred years ago, just up
the road from the fairgrounds,
one of the founding
Brackendale couples, Harry
and Annie Judd, started a
dairy farm and raised eight
girls and two boys in the big
yellow farmhouse on the
road that still bears the family
name. Harry also started the
first motorized taxi service
and Annie ran the household
with the precision of a
military operation. Adjacent
to the Judd farm, Kate Rae,
another Brackendale pioneer,
kept her family of eight boys
and two girls afloat by
running a farm and boarding
house after her husband
Allen was killed in a tragic
stump-clearing accident.
With the number of parents
pushing prams at the fair, or
walking hand in hand with
their offspring, it looks like a
new baby boom is in full
swing in the Shining Valley. In
one area of the grounds,
recently born farm animals
received the undivided
attention of wide-eyed
youngsters just slightly older
than the objects of their
admiration. In another area
kids got their faces painted.
Near the entrance to the
grounds a succession of
fairgoers lay face down on a
table as a masseuse worked
out the kinks in their necks
and backs. Across from the
massage table tai chi
enthusiasts performed their
art. In another booth a
manicurist offered her
services to passersby. A group
of musicians in an improvised
band shell entertained
the crowd with an assortment
of tunes.
First founded in 1915, the
focus of the Squamish
Farmers Institute (as it was
Letters Policy
QUANTUM SHIFT
HELMUT MANZL
then known) was to educate
residents about agriculture
and to host yearly exhibits of
local produce and products.
Almost a century later,
vendors at the fair hawked
homemade oils and lotions,
honey and household aides,
confections, breads and pies.
In the biggest tent, judged
exhibits from baked goods to
zucchinis were draped with
prize ribbons. Fairgoers played
mini golf and other games.
They chowed down on
various culinary delights,
including pizza baked in a
wood fired oven.
And weaving his way
through the crowd of fairgoers
was Thor Froslev himself, the
de facto president of the
Republic of Brackendale, the
founding father of an eccentric
enterprise known as the
Brackendale Art Gallery, and
the patriarch of the fair. For
years he has also been a
self-styled guru of all that
pertains to the genus
haliaeetus leucocephalus,
more commonly known as
the bald eagle.
This event and all that it
stands for brings to mind the
insightful words of one of Canada’s
most noted living
historians, Desmond Morton
of McGill University. He
advises us that we spend “too
much time remembering
conflicts, crises, and failures.”
We seem to forget “the great,
quiet continuity of life in a vast
and generous land.”
To Thor and Dorte Froslev,
and to all the volunteers who
spend countless hours
planning and overseeing the
Brackendale Fall Fair, we take
our hats off and say thanks for
keeping this great tradition
alive; we really appreciate
your efforts.

Agriculture bylaws examined
Produce stands on
residential lots voted
down at Committee
of the Whole
REBECCA ALDOUS
raldous@squamishchief.com
Urban agriculture may be coming
to Squamish backyards soon, but
don’t expect to see vegetable and fruit
stands popping up around town.
The District of Squamish is combing
through its zoning bylaws.
The review aims to update the document
while including new regulations
that promote an environmentally
friendly community.
In the draft bylaws was one that would
allow people on lots zoned for residential
use to grow produce and build a
structure up to 30 square metres from
which to sell their goods. No less than
75 per cent of the produce for sale had
to be grown on the person’s lot and the
keeping of poultry, fowl and bees would
be prohibited — a regulation already in
place to deter bears from entering the
community.
At a recent bylaw review open house
attended by 27, residents encouraged
the new urban agriculture idea, consultant
Brent Elliot told councilors at their
Committee of the Whole meeting on
Tuesday (Sept. 13).
Most participants wanted to see the
bylaw extended further to allow the
banned livestock, he said.
But the bylaw received a lukewarm
welcome in council chambers. If
fruit and vegetable stands were built
throughout the community they could
DOUG RACE
increase traffic, a side
effect that isn’t desirable
in single-family
neighbourhoods,
Coun. Doug Race
said. There are already
lots of venues
residents can use to
sell homegrown products,
he said, noting the farmers’ market
and local stores.
“We don’t have to have that kind
of traffic coming into our neighbourhoods,”
Race said.
Neighbourhood vegetable and fruit
stands could detract from the push to
get people downtown, Coun. Paul Lalli
warned. The bylaw would impact the
Squamish’s character, he added, noting
there needs to be more community
outreach before taking
such a big step.
“I don’t think the public is
really being engaged in these
high-level decisions,” he said.
Coun. Corrine Lonsdale,
though, argued that Squamish
is already full of homebased
businesses, from
auto mechanics to massage
services and barbershops.
Councillors were focusing on
the allowed size of the fruit
and vegetable stands, but
Lonsdale said it is hard to believe anybody
would build a stand that big.
The issue, along with the ban on poultry,
fowl and bees on residentially zone
lots, needs to be taken to the public and
resolved, she said.
Coun. Patricia Heintzman agreed, noting
if they’re kept properly, she favours allowing
them in residential neighbourhoods.
As for the fruit and vegetable stands,
I am not sure a
30-square-metre
fruit stands
in front of
people’s houses
is a progressive
move.
Greg Gardner
Heintzman said she would love to be able
to walk through her neighbourhood and
buy produce. She recommended council
keep the vegetable and fruit stand allowance
in the draft so that it could be discussed
by the community when the document
goes to public hearing.
“I think it is time we try to move things
from status quo and try and be a little
progressive,” Heintzman said.
With the exception of Coun. Bryan Raiser,
Lonsdale and Heintzman, the Committee
of the Whole voted against the fruit
and vegetable stands, but kept the urban
agriculture portion of the bylaw.
Under current regulations, residents
can already sell produce from their
homes, Mayor Greg Gardner noted.
“I am not sure a 30-square-metre
fruit stand in front of people’s
houses is a progressive
move,” he said.
The draft bylaws also include
green measures such
as making sure residential
lots have a minimum of 30
per cent of their total surface
area landscaped with permeable
material. The new bylaws
add solar panels to a list
of structures that are exempt
from height regulations.
On the affordable housing
front, the draft rescinds a regulation
that previously prevented accessory
structures, such as coach houses,
from being built until a principal building
was in place.
The bylaw review will be back before
committee of the whole in early October.
It will then have to pass 1st and 2nd
council reading before going to a public
hearing, which will likely take place in
late October, Gardner said.

Kids jump in the bouncy castle while Cinderella and their mothers watch closely at the 2010
Sea to Sky Family Fair. This year, the fair takes place on Sept. 17.
BEN LYPKA
blypka@squamishchief.com
Everyone attending the second annual
Sea to Sky Family Fair were given
one important piece of advice from
event co-organizer Kay Levis — keep
your elbows up.
Juno Award-winning children’s performers
Bobs and Lolo will appear for
the first time in Squamish at the event,
which takes place on Saturday (Sept. 17)
and Levis said it should be pure pandemonium
from the duo’s young fans.
“The kids just lose their minds,” she
said. “You’ve got to see the kiddie mosh
pit that ends up at all their performances.
They have such a way with the kids
and if you’ve never seen kids jump for an
hour, you will at our event.”
But draining the energy of over-excited
children isn’t the only feature for the fair,
which has seen the number of exhibitors
more than double for this year. More
than 60 different exhibitors will pack the
CN Roundhouse and Conference Centre
and Levis said she and co-organizer Betty
Sheehan hope to build on a successful
debut last year.
“We did have a good response last
year and because of that response we’ve
been able to more than double in size,”
she said. “Most of our exhibitors from
last year came back and we actually got
quite a few from Vancouver this year.”
In addition to the increase in size, Par-
T-Perfect has signed on as a presenting
sponsor, which means more bouncy
castles and activities for the kids.
“Instead of just one bouncy castle,
they’re going to be taking over the whole
back of the room,” Levis said. “There will
be a whole fun zone set up with games,
face painting and two bouncy castles.”
And perhaps best of all, the event is
completely free. Levis and Sheehan,
who run the Busy Mums group that organized
the event, thought that because
of the appearance of Bobs and Lolo, a
small admission fee would be needed to
offset the duo’s costs. However, due to
the large number of exhibitors, the event
can be offered for free just like last year.
Levis said organizers plan to continue
to build on the event and have looked toward
the Nanaimo and Vancouver family
shows for inspiration for the future.
“I think we’re about halfway there to
being recognized in that same vein as
those two shows,” she said. “Realistically
it’s more feasible to aim for Nanaimo
because we’re more similar populationwise,
but I think for the feel we’re already
there. We have the concerts, the
entertainment — our room is full and
quality-wise we’re on par. We’re just not
there for size yet.”
She added that the Roundhouse and
Conference Centre is a great venue
because of the natural light available
from the large windows at the front of
the building. She noted that most family
fairs are held in gymnasiums or conference
rooms, while the Roundhouse
Centre is far more inviting. She also said
the hope is to potentially make the event
a two-day fair as soon as next year.
As for Bobs and Lolo, Levis said they
are scheduled to perform twice, at 11
a.m. and 1 p.m. and will do two completely
different sets. She said getting
Bobs and Lolo was a dream level of entertainer
for the fair and she’s thrilled to
have them at the event.
The Sea to Sky Family Fair will run
from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the CN Roundhouse
Centre on Saturday. Admission
is free but donations and notes of support
will be gathered for Baby Lina and
the Palethorpe family at the door as the
youngster continues to battle cancer.
Donations for the food bank will also be
accepted at the front entrance.

Special to The Chief
The community non-profit Little Squids
raised the roof at the West Coast Railway
Heritage Park on Sunday (Sept. 11) with
its first large-scale, community-wide event.
Between 4 and 7 p.m., the Barnyard Bash
attracted more than 400 people with its
Western theme, fun-filled free activities and
outpouring of community spirit.
“We wanted to make sure that every single
person was welcome,” said Little Squids
vice-chair Rachel Boguski, “and I think that
we achieved that.”
The Bash featured live bluegrass music by
Tantalus Pass, portrait photography by Gabi
Moeller Photography, face painting by Stan
Matwychuk of Homebase Studios, kids’
crafts, prizes, and food and beverages — all
at no cost, while Campfire Grill treats were
available for purchase outside.
Donations were received from a number of
local businesses including Save-On Foods,
Nesters, Starbucks, Canadian Tire, Samurai
Sushi, Red Robin, Booster Juice, Pearson Financial,
Tumblewoods, Maplewood Farm,
Mark’s and Rona.
“It went phenomenally well,” said Jeanne

year when Cameron approached the community
group Squamish Mom, of which Boguski
was a co-founder.
“Basically we felt that they had a healthy following
so it would be a good starting point
for a parent group,” Cameron said. “There
are parents’ groups in Whistler, Pemberton,
D’Arcy, Mount Currie and the Lower Lakes
communities that receive that funding.”
“They contacted us and thought we might be
the right people to kick it into gear,” said Boguski,
“so we called a general meeting to see
who would be interested in forming a group.”
With the mandate of supporting and creating
free programming for Squamish kids ages 0 to
six, Little Squids has taken official sponsorship
of the play area in the Squamish Adventure
Centre. There, two weekly programs for Squamish
families — the Monday Matinee between
3 and 5 p.m. and Little Squids Storytime every
Tuesday at 10:30 a.m. — are already in effect.
“[And] making sure there are age-appropriate
toys, that toys aren’t broken, that they’re
clean,” said Boguski. “Basically, we are in
charge of making sure that that space remains
a safe and fun space for kids to go to.”
The Barnyard Bash — planned as a free
back-to-school kick-off — was the first official
event and Squamish families can expect
more seasonal events and weekly drop-in activities
for the entire year.
“We’re also going to look at a window
where we can do a drop-in for mothers of babies
ages 0 to six months who are new mothers
and need to get out,” Boguski said. “We
basically took a look at what Squamish currently
had and where we can fill the gaps.”
Little Squids is entirely a volunteer effort with
scheduled monthly meetings, which anyone
interested is welcome to join, to contribute
ideas and help grow the group’s membership.
“A member is someone who comes to two
or more meetings within an annual period,”
Boguski said, “so then once you become a
member you can vote on anything.”
“It’s really important that we feel like we’re
representing what the community wants and
we’d love to hear more about what parents
are looking for,” she said.

The common thread
Squamish Multi-Faith
Association hosts its
annual celebration
on Sept. 24.
REBECCA ALDOUS
raldous@squamishchief.com
Zia and Mohammad Afsar grew up around
Islam. They carried out their prayers, read
from the Qu’ran and visited mosques. The religion
was a part of their daily activities.
But it wasn’t until they flew thousands of kilometres
away from Pakistan, and the calls to
prayer that would echo through the streets at
dawn were silenced, that Zia and Mohammad
said they truly discovered the faith.
“We had been going through the
rituals and culture of Islam. We
were doing it because everybody
else was doing it,” Mohammad said.
The word Islam means peace,
he continued. And like many other
religions, its backbone is the
belief that under the Kingdom of
God there is only one humanity
that is created equal, Mohammad
said. The more the Afsars learned
about their own religion, the more
they said they began to see a core
thread that ties Christianity, Judaism, Shintoism
and other faiths together.
“Now we think that we understand and try to
follow the true spirit of Islam,” Mohammad said.
Mohammad and Zia have always lived active
community lives. In Pakistan, Zia was the
main force behind a movement to allow females
into engineering school. She won, an
achievement that was later recognized by the
Canadian Council of Muslim Women. Today

she has three nieces who are engineers.
The couple met at McMaster University in
Ontario, where Zia was studying nuclear
physics and Mohammad took civil engineering.
They married in Canada and together established
a mosque in Hamilton.
Now in Squamish, few residents share their
faith — the 2001 Canada Census reported 30
Muslims in the community — but many people
share the couple’s beliefs on how to live
one’s life and aid the community.
With this in mind, Mohammad founded the
Squamish Multi-Faith Association. The society
promotes interfaith and multi-faith dialogue
and understanding, Mohammad said.
The association encourages all people of
faith to collaborate on community programs,
he added.
On Saturday, Sept. 24, the organization
is hosting its Multi-Faith
Celebration at the St. John The Divine
Anglican Church. The night
will include guest speaker Robert
Worcester, a member of the David
Suzuki Foundation’s Council of Elders
and past president of the Vancouver
Interfaith Society.
Worcester will give a talk dubbed
Unity in Diversity. It examines the
environment and caring for the
planet.
The event will kick off at 6 p.m.
and the church is located at 1930 Diamond
Rd. in Garibaldi Estates. To RSVP call (604)
815-4344 or email afsarmohammad@hotmail.com.
Zia and Mohammad both believe there is a
growing understanding when it comes to various
religions.
“Our culture is humanity,” Mohammad said.
“The more people begin to understand each
other, the more we find in common.”

The evolution of TV viewing
Television certainly has
changed since I was a
little kid.
I have vivid memories
of sitting on my couch
watching reruns of The Three
Stooges, and shows like
M*A*S*H, Hogan’s Heroes and
that trippy 1960s Spiderman
cartoon. The television set itself
was a monstrosity encased in
faux wood that gave you
occasional shocks if you
touched the screen, and we
received the stations for free
using “rabbit ears.”
The rabbit-ear antennae
wasn’t always that reliable if
memory serves, and we would
lose the channel if my mom
started the vacuum cleaner, or
if someone with too much
change in his or her pocket
walked by the set.
I also seem to remember one
particularly snowy winter
when we could only get the
Stanley Cup finals if I held onto
the rabbit ears while touching
the window frame behind the
TV. Every time I’d fidget, the
channel would go from signal
to noise, and my dad would
shout, “Don’t move!” until the
Habs won the game.
Today, televisions are no
longer space-hogging
furniture, and they come in a
variety of flavours from plasma
to LCD and HD to 3D.
In Canada, the good old
analog rabbit ears pretty much
went the way of the dodo as of
Aug. 31, thanks to the majority
of television transmission
TECHNICALLY
SPEAKING
STEVEN HILL
towers making the switch
from analog to digital signals.
But in fact, today you don’t
really even need a television
set to watch television
anymore. You can download
all your favourite television
shows directly to your
smartphone using things like
iTunes or Netflix and watch
them anywhere you like — as
long as you don’t mind seeing
it on an itty-bitty-teensy-tiny
screen. Don’t get me wrong. I
watch television shows and
movies all the time on my
iPhone, but it is a bit like
reading a book from across the
room. And with such new
online services as Netflix
— where you can stream
content to your phone, PS3
console, or computer — you
don’t need cable or satellite TV
plans either anymore. But
Canadians are still having
some problems with these
new viewing freedoms, thanks
to heavy caps put on our
Internet use by the major
Internet service providers —
who also happen to be
competitors and provide cable
and satellite content…
hmmmm. If you stream or
download a schwack of
movies, that sucks up tons of
bandwidth, and could cost you
extra in usage fees at the end
of the month depending on
your Internet plan and
provider. The Internet
providers feel services like
Netflix shouldn’t be able to
offer unlimited downloads on
the backs of their infrastructure.
Supporters of the service
say it’s just the next evolution
of television viewing — from
analog antennae to cable/
satellite to online. Of course,
now all that valuable analog
bandwidth real estate sits
vacant, waiting for someone to
scoop it up in an auction.
Chances are it will be cell
phone companies or Google
who will snap it up — probably
so they can use it to stream
even more content online. No
matter how you feel about
online television viewing,
statistics say its popularity is on
the rise (something like 33 per
cent of Canadians now watch
TV online according to some
polls). I know I’ll still be turning
online for more viewing
freedom, and so I can show
my kids reruns of the Three
Stooges, M*A*S*H and the
trippy 1960s Spiderman
cartoon my two-year-old son
loves to watch.
Well, OK, maybe it hasn’t
changed all that much from
when I was a kid.

“What I like about rapping is just the
ability to write and express yourself.”
—Shane Cockell
Putting pen to paper
Squamish rapper
battles it out
with others
for online
supremacy
PHOTO BY REBECCA ALDOUS/THE CHIEF
Shane Cockell’s music sample secured him an invitation to the popular television show Canada’s Got Talent
but due to a mix-up, Cockell and his brother Clayton were booked for a time slot in Toronto instead
of Vancouver and never made it onto the show.
REBECCA ALDOUS
raldous@squamishchief.com
Two foot-long catfish peer
out of a large tank in what
would normally be the apartment’s
dining area.
Their owner, Shane Cockell,
sits on a couch facing a
large-screen TV. It’s blaring
a National Geographic show
about rare diseases. The
room’s walls are plastered
with posters and magazine
pullouts of mixed martial arts
fighters and buxom women.
On the coffee table, which is
draped in a Confederate flag,
sits Cockell’s computer. Beside
him, on the couch, is the
key to his passion — a notebook
full of rushed writing.
“A lot of people say my style
is more aggressive,” Cockell
says while twiddling his
thumbs on his lap. His colourful
tattoos on his arm twitch
as his fingers move. “I like
fast-paced stuff.”
For the past seven months,
the Squamish General Hospital
security guard and his
brother Clayton have been
writing and composing their
first rap album. Both grew up
listening to the high-pitched,
attitude-drenched rhymes of
rapper Easy-E. The late ’80s,
early ’90s style of rapping has
still got Cockell hooked.
“A lot of people are not
keeping it real,” he says, noting
all the technology used to
manipulate voices.
Cockell and his brother discovered
their musical talent
by accident. One day everything
just started flowing —
Cockell recalls that it was
“kind of weird.” Growing up
in Squamish, Cockell and
his brother were distant, but
there they were, Clayton setting
out beats and Cockell
writing and rapping.
“Music has really brought us
together,” Cockell says.
Last week, they experienced
a high and low all
within that timeframe. After
sending in a music sample,
Cockell got an invitation
to audition for the television
show Canada’s Got Talent.
But there was a mix-up. Instead
of booking the brothers
for a time slot in Vancouver,
the production had them
marked for space in Toronto.
While some people would
be disheartened at the lost opportunity
for their seven minutes
of fame, the error has only
fueled Cockell’s enthusiasm.
He is currently writing a rap
for a friend who is a mixed
martial arts fighter. At his next
fight, the man will walk into
the cage with Cockell’s song
playing. It’s an honour, Cockell
says. Not too long ago, he
did the same for another fighter
in New Brunswick.
Cockell’s music is also playing
out online. Under his
rapper name XerxeS, Cockell
and his brother currently
claim the top spot for hip hop
artists in Squamish on the
music website Reverbnation.
com. There is a constant online
battle, Cockell says. Independent
musicians try to
one-up each other and gain
online fans in an attempt to
get their music to the masses.
So far, the Cockell brothers
have garnered 1,128 online
fans and their site has logged
more than 3,000 visits.
“People get really competitive
online,” Cockell says. “People
try and steal your fans.”
While the Internet is a useful
tool to get his rapping to a wider
audience, Cockell hopes
one day there will be more
venues in Squamish where
he and other hip hop and rap
enthusiasts can take to the
stage. Until then he’ll keep
putting his pen to the paper.
“What I like about rapping
is just the ability to write and
express yourself,” he says.

So how long before everyone
on the planet is dead?
Contagion puts forth a rather
sprawling account of this
scenario.
Covering the globe, the
story follows several threads
as we see just how unhygienic
and fragile humans
are. And the spread of the
disease is one thing, but the
spread of panic is another
and also leads to some
interesting scenarios.
While three stars are
mentioned at the top this

The movie definitely has
some good points and
shines some light on our
ridiculous little world,
including how government
systems mean well but
rarely help. However, the
ending is anti-climatic to say
the least and I can understand
the moviegoer who
left the theatre asking
friends if they thought the
movie was bad or horrible.
One thing is for sure — agoraphobics
will not be doing

Dhillon shares story
of domestic violence
Library hosts
workshop with
‘Black and Blue
Sari’ author
STEVEN HILL
Special to The Chief
After enduring 12 years of
harrowing and torturous
domestic violence, Kamal S.
Dhillon wants women in similar
situations to know there
is always hope.
Dhillon, author of the book
Black and Blue Sari, presents
a talk and workshop on domestic
violence on Thursday
(Sept. 22) at the Squamish
Public Library.
“Normally, I do a talk based
on my experiences and
book,” she said. “I speak
about violence against women,
and present a mini-workshop
covering things like
signs to watch for and where
to find help, followed by a Q
and A period.”
Dhillon’s book is an autobiographical
account of her arranged
marriage, and the brutality
she faced on a daily basis
at the hands of her husband.
It’s a frank and unflinching
look at the severe reality of
domestic violence that Dhillon
says many women never
find the strength to leave.
“It took me 12 years to finally
get out,” she said. “I would always
go back because of the
children – because he kept
the children – and then there
were the threats of violence.
Many times women feel it is
safer to stay in it and keep him
calm, rather than leave and
have something happen.”
Dhillon’s book details the
abuses she endured — broken
bones, smashed jaw,
burns — and how she finally
broke the cycle of violence.
“After so many years of torture,
I was no longer afraid
of dying,” she said. “I needed
some peace, even if it was
only for one day.”
But it took her a few years
before she decided to write

an account of the ordeal to
help others.
“That took me a while,” she
said. “I needed to know who
I was and what I could do.”
She eventually began working
in women’s shelters and
speaking to the community
about the reality of domestic
violence.
“I had been given the opportunity
to speak with community
leaders and government
officials, and they told
me I needed to keep talking
about this,” she said.
But it was news reports of
women who had not survived
their abusive relationships
that finally inspired
Dhillon to start writing.
“I really got serious about
four or five years ago,” she
said. “That was when there
were murders in the Indo-
Canadian community involving
wives and domestic
violence. I thought I could
help by sharing what I went
through.”
But it wasn’t an easy task to

conjure up all those memories
of abuse.
“While I was in it, I learned
to numb myself,” she said.
“But to write it, I had to relive
it and relive the fear. That
was difficult.”
She published the book in
2009, and has spent the past
year discussing it at schools,
events and functions to raise
awareness around the many
forms of abuse.
“I can help by giving hope,”
she said. “If I could get away
— they can, too.”
Dhillon’s workshop is cosponsored
by the Women’s
Health Network and the Howe
Sound Women’s Centre.
The special event runs from
7 to 9 p.m. on Thursday (Sept.
22) in the Squamish Public
Library’s meeting room.
Babysitting will be available,
but call Sue at (604) 892-

ADVENTURE
“We’ve got some of the fastest players in
the league on this team.”
—Joe Gignac
Sounders quarterback James Kyle dashes for open field during the team’s first regular season game against Argyle on Friday (Sept. 9).
Howe Sound kicks
off regular school
football season with
a 40-0 victory
BEN LYPKA
blypka@squamishchief.com
New head coach Joe Gignac couldn’t have scripted
a better way to start off his tenure at the helm
of the Howe Sound Sounders football club.
The Sounders dominated the Argyle Secondary
School Pipers on Friday (Sept. 9) by a score
of 40-0 in the first game of the B.C. High School
Football Tier 2 division.
Gignac was impressed with how his team
responded.
“I’m really, really happy with the way we played
today,” he said. “Our defence played well and our
offence did an exceptional job.”
He praised several of his offensive stars, many

Sounders blank Pipers in opener
of whom put up impressive numbers in the win.
“We’ve got a quarterback right out of the GSL
— Roland Mendoza, who played so well for us,”
he said, noting that Mendoza will have chance to
get even better as he’s only in Grade 9. “Anthony
Wuster, Griffin Dare and James Kyle all had great
games offensively for us too.”
But Gignac admitted that it might have been
the defence that turned the tide, making a crucial
stop in the red zone to close out the first half.
With the Sounders up 12-0 in the second quarter,
Argyle put together a strong drive all the way to
the 5-yard line but were stymied by the Sounders’
defence. The Pipers couldn’t seem to recover
from that close call and didn’t manage much offence
in the second half.
The Sounders exploded offensively, with 240 total
yards, including 187 on the ground. Leading
the charge for Howe Sound was Swo-wo Gabriel,
with 84 yards on 14 carries and one touchdown.
Dare collected 40 yards on seven carries along
with one touchdown, while Kyle scored one major
and snagged 35 yards on three possessions.
Despite the strong games from all the backs, centre
Adam Stangowtiz, who helped create a lot of
space for his teammates, was named offensive
player of the game.
Howe Sound only connected once in the air but
it was a successful one, as Wuster scrambled for
53 yards and for a touchdown. He also reached
the end zone on a kick return in the second half.
According to Gignac, the speed of some of his key
offensive players should help the team succeed.
“The quarterback and two of my wing players
can both run 4.6 (second) 40s,” he said. “We’ve
got some of the fastest players in the league on
this team.”
The defence also shut down Argyle, only allowing
66 total yards on the afternoon. Defensive
end Cam Prouten, who was named the defensive
star of the game, picked up five tackles and recovered
a fumble to lead the way for the defence.
Next up for the Sounders will be the Valleyview
Secondary Vikings, which could prove to be a big
test for the Sounders. The Vikings play in the AA
division and knocked off AAA-ranked Rutland
last week. Kick-off is set for today (Sept. 16) at 3
p.m. at Howe Sound field.

Successful trip north for Kermodes
Women’s team sets new
offensive record, men’s team
plays to scoreless draw
BEN LYPKA
blypka@squamishchief.com
Jonas Worth is becoming more and more familiar with hospital
staff but it hasn’t dampened the outlook he has on the
Quest University Kermodes men’s soccer club.
The Kermodes played to a scoreless draw in their season
opener against the University of Northern British Columbia
(UNBC) Timberwolves on Sunday (Sept. 11) and the Quest
coach said he was pleased with his team’s effort despite losing
key defender Charles Impey to a rib injury in the game.
“If it hadn’t been for the injury I’d have been extremely
pleased,” Worth said, noting the team also lost defender Jonathon
Friedman to a broken leg in the pre-season. “It was the
type of game where the boys did nearly everything right.”
Worth pointed out that UNBC failed to register a shot on target
but they also did a good job shutting down some of the
Quest forwards.
“They certainly made us think about every shot,” he said.
“We hit the crossbar a few times and had a number of corners,
but to play that way against last year’s provincial finalists
is huge.”
Worth said other players have been stepping up in the absence
of Impey and Friedman.
“Our first-year centre back Benjamin Schager has been wise
and skillful well beyond his years,” he said. “Benjamin Mac-
Gregor has taken on all the responsibilities I’ve given him and
he’s got incredible leadership.”
According to Worth, first-year strikers Kevin Berna and Peter
Cooper also looked good in their regular-season debuts.
“Berna has surprised me in every game,” he said. “He has
the ability to take players on and set up chances for us. And
Cooper was impressive again. He’s going to give me a real selection
problem as the season goes on because I’m not sure
I’m going to be able to keep him on the bench.”
Worth also announced the recruiting of Daniel Kline, a player
that he hopes will help ease the loss of Friedman. As for
Impey, Worth said his status will be determined after results
from his X-rays are revealed. He added that the team should
be ready for the re-match with UNBC, which takes place on
Saturday (Sept. 17).
“I expect it to be physical and scrappy again next week,” he
said. “Our confidence is incredible right now and when people
come to our home games, we hope to score goals and be
entertaining and efficient.”
The women’s team also pitched a shutout against UNBC but
exploded for four goals in the biggest offensive outburst in the
history of the program.
Krigi Marti, Mari Tarleton, Tanner Batchelor and Jamey Wessels
scored for the Kermodes, with Tianna Gilchrist picking up
the shutout.
The win vaults the lady Kermodes into first place in the newly
named Pacific Western Athletic Association (PacWest).
Both teams will host UNBC at Quest University on Saturday
(Sept. 17). The women hit the field at 1 p.m., while the men
kick off at 3 p.m.

SDBA cures dirt biking itch
Annual Cat
Scratch Fever
event deemed
a success
BEN LYPKA
blypka@squamishchief.com
Dirt bike racers from all
across the province satisfied
their itch for the sport at
the annual Cat Scratch Fever
event on Sunday (Sept. 11).
The Squamish Dirt Bike Association
(SDBA) hosted the
event at Cat Lake and the
group’s secretary, Juliane
Knoll, said it was a nice way
to wrap up the season.
“Overall the event was a
success,” she said. “We had
no injuries and had a number
of local riders placing in
the top three in their groups. It
was a lot of hard work by the
club as far as getting trails prepared
but it was a success.”
The race is one of several
stops throughout the province
on the Pacific North
West Motorcycle Association
(PNWMA) series and Knoll
said the course is regarded
as one of the most difficult in
the series.
“The technicality and the
steepness of the terrain
make it pretty challenging,”
she said. “Competitors are
also dealing with roots and
rocks and this past weekend
they also had to deal with a
lot of dust because of the dry
weather we’ve been having.”

Competitors jockey for position
at the Cat Scratch Fever dirt
biking race, which was put on
by the Squamish Dirt Biking Association
on Sunday (Sept. 11).
Despite the tricky nature
of the course, Knoll said the
feedback she received from
the event was positive.
“We got a lot of good feedback
from competitors as
far as hosting the event,” she
said. “They appreciated the
work we put into the trails
and I think the riders really
enjoyed the course.”
Riders came from Merritt,
Kamloops, Vernon, Quesnel
and 100 Mile House, as well
as several racers from the
Lower Mainland and the Sea
to Sky Corridor, Knoll said.
Abbotsford resident Ryan Dey
took home first place in the
three-hour “A” course ride.
The former Canadian mountain
bike cross-country team
member snatched first in the
masters division and had a
strong afternoon on the trails.
Several locals also fared
well, as No Limits Motorsports
team members Pat
Rouillard and Aaron Richardson
won the expert and veteran
expert 30+ classes, respectively.
Their teammate
Linda Ingvarsson also placed
second in the two-hour “B”
course women’s race.
Other Squamish riders who
excelled included Jason Lorenz
(first in “B” course veteran
amateur), Dennis Hill (second
in “B” course super senior)
and Rebecca Jean (third in the
women’s division).
The event concludes the
competitive season for the
SDBA but Knoll said there
will still be group rides and
trail maintenance for the remainder
of the year. According
to Knoll, the SDBA can tailor
group rides to any riders’
skill level and to contact the
SDBA for more details. Membership
in the group is recommended
to participate in
a group ride and it’s a yearly
fee of $65 to join.
“We organize club rides so
members can come out and
get to know the trails better,”
she said. “We always promote
riding in a group with
others who know the area really
well and promote riding
in a safe manner.”

While Zack Garland was
blown away by the support
shown at the finish line of
Saturday’s (Sept. 10) RBC Gran-
Fondo Whistler, riding across
the line on Blackcomb Way
was extra special because the
cheers were for him alone.
That’s because the 25-yearold
from St. John’s, Nfld., blew
the pro men’s Giro field away
to win the second running of
the 122-kilometre cycling race
up the Sea to Sky Highway,
finishing more than three
minutes ahead of anyone else
with a time of three hours, 16
minutes and two seconds.

describing the feeling as he
raised his arms in triumph at
the finish line. “With about
five km to go, I felt like I had
it and somebody told me I
had (a gap of) three minutes. I
never stopped going, and just
coming up and taking that last
left-hander with all the people
there was just amazing.
“All the suffering goes away.
These people were stoked on
cycling. I was pumped to ride
today.”
Making his GranFondo
Whistler debut, Garland said
he started to make his breakaway
from the peloton with
about 16 km to go and never
looked back en route to first
place and the $3,000 top prize.
“Any big race I’ve ever won
has always been solo,” Garland
said. “I knew the guys
I was with quite well, so my
idea was to really get going
and see how the guys were
feeling. It was really just testing
their legs to see how they
were, and I knew if I had to, I
would suffer for the last 16 km.
That’s just what I had to do.”

In the women’s Giro, Team

similarly had a big cushion
at the finish with her time of

started to file in 75 seconds
later with Claire Cameron
grabbing second place just
ahead of defending champ
Leah Guloien, who was third.
Several Squamish racers
also fared well, with Max
Saenger posting the best time
of any local involved in the
race. Saenger completed the
course in 3:32:51, winning the
male 40 to 49 division. Garibaldi
Highlands resident Michael
Roblin wasn’t far behind,
with a time of 3:33:14,
finishing sixth in the male 40
to 49 group. The third-fastest
local men’s time was Squamish’s
Kelly Servinski, who
posted a time of 3:39:28.
Local women also posted
some impressive times with
Brackendale’s Brandi Heisterman,
clocking in at 3:53:16.
Heisterman finished ninth
overall among Giro women
and said she had a fun time
in the race.
“I’m a mountain biker and
we tend not to do too much
work, but I did,” said a smiling
Heisterman. “I’m not going
to just sit back. It was
more exciting this year… I
had a great time.”
Rua Read was the secondfastest
local with a time of
3:53:35, while the third fastest
local time belonged to Catherine
Gendron at 4:04:08.

Agony, ecstasy — and a

NICOLE TRIGG
Special to The Chief
’ve been taking advantage
“I of you,” I heard a sultry
Italian voice say from behind.
Looking over my left shoulder,
I saw a pair of sunglasses, a
big grin and a gold hoop earring
glinting in the sun coming
up beside me. Any conversation
at this point of the Gran-
Fondo was a welcome relief
-- and hard to come by. All I
could see in front of me was
a long line of moving cyclists
with their heads down, presumably
gritting their teeth
and giving the last highway
section before Whistler their
all in order to make it to the
finish line as fast as possible
to end the pain. At least, that’s
what I was thinking.
Grinning back, I replied,
with what effort I had left,
“That’s OK, as long as I can
take advantage of you next.”
This was no sexual come on.
In road cycling language, we
had struck a bargain — you
pull me then I pull you.
During my training, experienced
roadies had taught
me that the key to efficient
road biking is to ride with
a pack and rotate the head
of the line, because the first
person is working the hardest
by breaking the wind and
“pulling” the rest of the group
— “drafting” off them, so to
speak. But mid-ride I was disappointed
to discover hardly
anyone applying this technique.

pointed out, this year’s Gran-
Fondo, in their experience,
seemed more like a free-forall
mountain bike event than
a road race. But I had found a
GranFondo packmate at last,
and an Italian one at that. I
gratefully let my new friend
Antonio take the lead and,
working together, we began
to pass cyclists by the dozen.
When I received
an email inquiring
whether any staff
members were interested
in entering the
GranFondo as part
of the Glacier Media
team, I didn’t hesitate.
That I had never
owned a road bike let alone
ridden one seemed irrelevant.
How hard could it be? After borrowing
a bike from a girlfriend, I
went onto the RBC GranFondo
Whistler website and realized,
for the first time, that perhaps I
had bitten off more than I could
chew. I liked the idea of finishing
between five and six hours,
a realistic goal considering my
lack of experience.
But according to
the 20-week online
training program,
I was 14 weeks
behind schedule.
Dumbfounded, I
learned my suggested
weekly focus
should be between
190 and 215
km. I better get on
this, I thought uneasily.
By the time I
stood in the staging
area on Georgia
Street in downtown Vancouver
in the early morning
of Saturday (Sept. 10), I had 10
or so solo rides, three group
rides, Corsa Cycles’ Prima-
Fondo warm-up event and
maybe a total of 500 km under
my belt. Outfitted in the Team
Whistler colours complete
with Glacier Media logos, I
nervously placed myself in the
middle of the five-hour-finish
start corral, surrounded by an
ocean of extremely competent-looking
road bikers. But
nervousness soon gave way
to anticipation — the atmosphere
was electrifying. And
when all 7,000 cyclists were
asked to remove their helmets

for the Barney Bentall-Jim
Cuddy rendition
of the Canadian
anthem, I teared
up, overwhelmed
with unexpected
patriotism.
Before I knew it,
I was on my way
up the middle of Lions Gate
Bridge. “Rollin’ rollin’ rollin…”
sang out a cyclist to my right
as the North Shore mountains,
bathed in the day’s early sunlight,
came into view. After racing
northbound on Highway 1
in the cool morning air, I found
myself on the familiar territory
of the Sea to Sky sooner than
expected and spontaneously
decided to cross
the finish line in
less than five hours
— which meant
stopping only
when absolutely
necessary and
throwing all caution
to the wind in
terms of pacing.
Most of the
ride was a blur. I
vaguely remember
throwing back
a miniature glass
of white wine in
honour of the European
tradition I was celebrating,
one bathroom break,
a man playing a full drum kit
on the hill out of Squamish,
and a British bloke in a skullcap
helmet riding a mountain
bike who was frustrating the
hell out of all the roadies he
was passing.
Four hours later, “I am never
doing this again” was the predominant
thought in my head.
The intense heat had grown
unbearable, radiating up from
the asphalt while the sun’s
rays burned into my arms and
back. Spinning my legs mercilessly
and holding the handlebars
in a death grip, I knew I
had to ignore the aching sensation
permeating throughout
my entire body, or I wouldn’t
make it. And that’s when Antonio,
my knight in shining Spandex,
came to the rescue.
Chasing him through Whistler,
I didn’t let up until I had
the finish line in my sights, at
which point I sprinted, using
a reserve of strength I didn’t
even know I had. Grinning
from ear to ear, I finished the
Fondo in 1,793rd place in a
time of four hours, 51 minutes.

David Burke celebrates having passed the midway point at Alice
Lake aid station with his daughters Jenna, 8, and Linnea, 11.
along the Upper Levels and Sea to Sky highways, the three aidstation
stops and the sweltering heat of the Brohm, Cheakamus
Canyon and Powerline hills — I could scarcely believe my ears.
Was it coming from a nearby car? No. From someone else’s
punctured front tire? No again.
It was mine, and I only contemplated stopping for a millisecond.
“(Bleep) it,” I thought, almost out loud. “Just pedal, baby. If you
have to buy a new rim, so be it.”
And so ended my first significant marathon bike racing experience:
Me and my trusty old Novara Strada, which cost all of
$350 when I bought it new 19 years ago, during a previous existence
in another country: Rolling across the finish line together
on a floppy front tire.
I guess if you’re going to hear that sound during a 122-kilometre
cycling odyssey, it’s best to save it until the end.
Anyone who knows me also knows that I’m a runner, with
25 full marathons, including a couple of winning ones, under
my belt over the past 25 years. I’m also a lover of cross-country
skiing, having done a few races — but having finished far back
in the pack. I’ve long been fond of saying that as a skier, I’m a
pretty good runner: Aerobically fit but technically challenged.
I found out on Saturday that the same holds true with me and
cycling: Strong legs, decent aerobic fitness, no technique to
speak of. And we won’t even talk about the limitations brought
about by my ancient two-wheeler.
Standing astride Ol’ Betsy in the starting chute along Georgia
Michael Tremblay
Street, it was hard not to be intimidated. My steel-frame bike,
with shifters mounted on the frame, was one of only two I saw
that had the old-style toe cages instead of the clip-in shoes and
pedals of newer models valued at 10 or 15 times that of my bike.
My biggest immediate worry was negotiating the first few kilometres
amid the crush of 7,000 riders. I thought we’d be elbow
to elbow, tire to tire, until at least Horseshoe Bay, 20 km into the
race. Crashes are almost inevitable in that situation, aren’t they?
My fears were quickly and pleasantly allayed. Sure, I had to
wait 20 minutes to cross the start line, but once I did, I was
pedaling freely right through the Stanley Park Causeway and
over the Lions Gate Bridge. Following the advice of friends, I resolved
to use hand and voice signals when I wanted to move left
or right, and immediately found other riders doing the same —
even chatting and interacting as we pedaled along like salmon
spawning upstream.
On the downhill just after Horseshoe Bay, I spotted the first
crash I’d seen — a pretty nasty one by all appearances; the
front wheel of one bike appeared to have been double-taco-ed.
Yikes. Hope the rider fared a bit better.
Seeing Howe Sound on a clear, cool summer’s morning, while
cruising along at 30 or 40 km/h on the seat of a bike — feeling
the wind and enjoying vision of sparking, clear waters far below
— without having to hug tight to the shoulder the whole way,
gave me a whole new perspective on the growing popularity of
road cycling here.
The support along the way was inspiring. Every intersection in
Squamish include small- to medium-sized groups of cheering
spectators; riders, including myself, returned their enthusiastic
support with waves and expressions of thanks.
After the busy Alice Lake aid station, when the road rises
gradually at first, then more steeply, my marathon experience
served me well. On the Brohm and Cheakamus Canyon hills, I
passed hundreds while only being passed once.
As the kilometres of warming asphalt disappeared under my
tires, I did begin to feel fatigued — but clearly not to the same level
as most of those around me. This is when, as a marathon runner,
the self-talk becomes all-important: Keep it going, conserve
energy, stay hydrated, put your head down and keep moving.
In every marathon I’ve run (save one), leg muscles have begun
to tighten as I “hit the wall” near the end. Not so with the Gran-
Fondo. If there was a wall there, I didn’t see it — not even when
fate appeared to intervene and caused my front tire to deflate
unexpectedly.
It’s you and me together, Ol’ Betsy. We did it. When can we
sign up to do it again next year?

Mike McCarney got was a
broken clavicle.
McCarney was moments
away from finally finishing the
race when he violently collided
with a fellow rider, causing
considerable damage.
“I got a flat about one kilometre
or so from the finish,”
he said. “I decided that it

would waste too much time
to fix it so I just rode on my
rim. But as I was riding slowly
someone came up behind
me and smashed into me.”
Surprisingly, McCarney
didn’t panic and both he and
the other rider involved in
the accident dashed toward
the finish line. But as he approached
the line, McCarney
realized just how serious the
fall was.
“I was running by the barricades
where the fans are
and I heard someone say —
‘Oh my God, that guy’s got a
broken collarbone,’” he said,
noting the other rider suffered
a separated shoulder.

Mike McCarney sits outside the
Squamish Adventure Centre
with a sling on. McCarney broke
his clavicle during the GranFondo
cycling race that took place
last Saturday, Sept. 10.
“I just decided to sprint out
the last 100 or so metres but
when I got to the finish line,
I realized I had broken my
collarbone.”
McCarney was treated in
the medical tent and then
the Whistler clinic, where
the injury was diagnosed as
a broken clavicle. He admitted
that the adrenaline from
wanting to complete the
race pushed him to the finish
line but after reflecting
on the race, McCarney said
he thinks the GranFondo has
some serious flaws.
“In my opinion there’s too
many people in the race,”
he said. “Last year was more
manageable but I was in the
main group [this year] and it
was a big group and pretty
sketchy. People were taking
a lot of chances, they were
swerving in and out of the
cones and into the car lines,
cutting people off and not
looking behind them.”
He pointed out that his
group was so big that for
most of the ride, they took up
both lanes northbound on
the Sea to Sky Highway.
“We were in the car lane
all the way to the Furry Creek
hill,” he said. “They eventually
moved us out but guys were
still taking chances moving in
and out of the cones.”
McCarney said he thinks
event organizers need to
divide up the groups even
more, possibly into half-hour
segments as opposed to onehour
groupings.
“I’d say the two major things
they need to do to make the
race is better is reduce the
number of riders and split
us up even more from the
start,” he said. “They need
more separation time between
groups, maybe even
15 minutes. Most people in
the faster group are good riders
and could predict within
15 minutes what their finish
time would be.”
McCarney said he will not
return for the 2012 GranFondo
after taking part in the
race’s first two years.
“No way,” he said. “Not
with that number of people.
The number of riders is too
high and it’s just the fact that
they’re trying to squeeze too
many people down a small
pipe of one lane.”

LETTER TO THE MEMBERS
It’s that time of year again; time to prepare for the 2012 Squamish Chamber of Commerce Board
of Directors elections. In November six people will be elected to the Squamish Chamber of
Commerce Board; maybe you’ll be one of them, maybe you’ll nominate someone, or maybe you’ll
vote for the people you think are the best candidates.
There are many benefits to being a volunteer and a member of the Squamish Chamber Board.
Networking – You can meet some really interesting people. Board meetings, events, marketing
initiatives, not to mention doing the actual work of the organization opens you up to entirely new
networks of people in our community.
Knowledge – It’s fascinating to see how different organizations operate on a much deeper level.
Also, boards typically bring together a diverse group of people, from which you can both learn
from and share ideas with.
Credibility – When an organization entrusts you with a position like this, it is like a public
endorsement of your value. It is also an affiliation you can be proud to share and promote.
Recognition – Your involvement on a board can result in great attention, marketing, and publicity
for you and your company.
Impact – You’ll help make a difference in the organization and the community.
Even with the list of benefits, deciding to volunteer as a board member is not a decision to be
taken lightly. There is a time commitment to consider; you have to be willing to volunteer your
time and expertise and sacrifice personal time to the organization. You have to be willing to
participate and collaborate with a diverse group of people, whose ideas are not always the same
as yours. You have to be prepared to make serious decisions; you are part of a team that governs
the organization – it’s goals, objectives, strategic vision, and finances.
I am someone who enjoys volunteering my time, I like the feeling of knowing that I’m not just
a spectator in the community, I am participating. As my two-year
term with the Squamish Chamber of Commerce comes to an end, and
I move onto other volunteer pursuits, I encourage other members
(and future members!), to run for the Squamish Chamber Board. I
have learned more than I can fit into this article and hope that I have
contributed an equal amount back to the organization.
Thank you to my fellow board members, Chamber staff, and all the
Chamber members for allowing me to serve on this board. Of course
I will continue to be an active member, and hope to see you at the
next lunch on September 21st at Furry Creek, or in cyberspace on the
Chamber’s Facebook page (have you “liked” us yet?)

Celebrating Sea to Sky Area Housekeepers
2011
Housekeepers: the
unsung tourism heroes
From Sept. 11 to 17 the world celebrates International
Housekeeping Week.
For Whistler (with over 8,000 rooms alone), and the
prosperous Sea to Sky area properties in surrounding
Squamish and Pemberton, a strong housekeeping team
is of the utmost importance. Our local economy depends on
room stays and guest satisfaction, so housekeepers really
lead the way for area tourism.
Behind the scenes, local housekeepers tidy, polish and
put the finishing touches on the rooms for which our area is
famous. In my book, our housekeepers are the champions of
the hospitality industry. They do a magnificent job quietly
and effectively. Few people really grasp the magnitude of the
task and the fact that housekeepers must perform their duties
flawlessly, around the clock, every day of the week.
Having worked in the hotel industry myself, I can also say
that members of Whistler's housekeeping departments are
often the most fun! It is no wonder why our local properties
hold their teams in such high regard.
Whistler’s 2011 Housekeeping Olympics were held on
Wednesday (Sept. 14) at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler.
There are always a few laughs to be had as many of our local
hotels bring their housekeeping teams out for some friendly
competition. This year there were six hilarious games being
played, including the soap toss, three-legged/armed bed
making and towel sculpture.
The winner took home the coveted “golden toilet brush”
award. The competition wrapped up after The Question's
press deadline, but look for results in next week's issue.
- Tessa Sweeney
To The Fairmont Chateau Whistler Housekeeping Team
Thank you for your commitment & dedication to consistently delivering
our mission “Turning moments into memories for our guests.”
Enjoy the celebrations planned for International Housekeeping Week!

Our speaker will address environmental

to get to know and appreciate one
another as people of faith and hope for
a world that so very much needs faith
and hope… that transcends
differences. “Unity in Diversity” is our
theme. Our new executive includes

tradition. These are precious and holy
to all faith traditions. We also know
that our world grows ‘smaller’ by the
day. And if we fail to ‘get on board’
with this reality, God’s creation and
people of many nations and faith
traditions will continue to suffer
greatly.
Squamish Multifaith Association feels
called to address 3 areas of common
concern: 1) multi-faith dialogue and
understanding; 2) restoration and care
of God’s natural environment, and 3)
support and advocacy for marginalized
citizens or groups, including new
immigrants among us. We can do so
much more together than alone.
Perhaps this is why God made us
different.
Help us celebrate this great new
beginning for Squamish. Call St. John’s
at 604-898-5100 (by Sept.18) to
reserve a seat at our celebration table.
All are welcome. No cost, donations

Through a multi-year collaborative process with the Squamish community, the
SODC created a Business Plan in 2009 for the redevelopment of the SODC
Lands. The resulting mandate included community goals as well as a compelling
and feasible development plan. The heart of the redevelopment plan is building
a community. This is achieved by envisioning a place where people will come
together to work, to play, to learn and to live.
The meeting is being held by the Applicant in compliance with District of Squamish
policy. The applicant will present details of the application and proposed
development, receive input from members of the community, and respond to
questions.
Information packages are being distributed to residents within 100m of

more information, contact the Planning Department, at 604-815-5002 or The
Squamish Oceanfront Development Corporation (the applicant) by telephone
604-815-5075 or by email, info@squamishoceanfront.com and/or or bring your
questions and comments to the meeting.
This is not a Public Hearing. Council will receive a report from staff
detailing attendance and interest in the proposal and will formally consider
the application at a later date.
