Cats leg leadsto cougar killsSIAN THOMSON COURIER-ISLANDER
A cats leg found on a city street resulted in the tracking and
killing of two cougars in Campbell River last week.
On Wednesday morning the cats leg was found on the side-walk in
the 430 block of Goodwin Road between the Sportsplex and Southgate
Secondary, just a few days following a cat being shot by a pellet
gun in the same area.
Campbell River RCMP were called and took the cat leg to Campbell
River Veterinary Hospi-tal. The veterinarian was unable to say
exactly what caused the leg to be severed.
RCMP Corporal Poppy Hallam said later that night, at
approxi-mately 9:30 p.m. they received a call from a resident on
Goodwin Road that there had been two cougar sightings and someones
cat had been killed.
Members attended and the Conservation Officer along with a
cougar hound and his handler tracked, treed and dispatched the
cougar in the area, she said. At this time, the indication is
that
the severed cat leg is linked to this cougar.
On Thursday morning the other cougar returned to the same
neighbourhood and a young female cougar was also destroyed.
Conservation Officer Steve Petrovic said the cougars were too
comfortable hunting in resi-dential areas and were not reloca-tion
candidates.
The incident of the cat being shot with the pellet gun is still
under investigation and the RCMP is following up on leads received
through Crime Stoppers.

Two cougars couldnt be relocated and had to be put down.

COURIER-ISLANDER
The tail really is wagging the dog in Campbell River.The city
may be mov-ing from having one off-leash dog park to seven by
2015.
That was in a report to city council Tuesday night from Parks,
Recreation and Cul-tural General Manager Ross Milnthorp.
Milnthorp is suggesting the city create three new off-leash
parks this year, at Sequoia Park, the Museum Park and at McIvor
Lake which is referred to locally as Doggie Point.
He also suggested three more be created in 2015 at Maryland
Park, Franzen Park and Willow Point Park.

CITY EDUCATION
Students may beback in school
Campbell River students could be back to school next week after
a tenta-tive agreement was reached Tuesday between striking
teachers and the province.
Teachers launched full-scale job action two weeks before the
summer break and students have missed more than two weeks of their
new school year.
This affected the 943 school district employees and over 5,100
Campbell River public school students.
Campbell River Teachers Association President Dave Harper said
the CRDTA and the BCTF remain steadfast in the need to support
public education with adequate levels of ongoing funding to meet
the needs of students and com-munity schools.
We have achieved this tenta-tive agreement despite gov-ernments
ongoing attempts to manipulate our members and the public through a
massive public relations campaign in an effort to divide teachers
and their communities, he said.
Details of the agreement were not available at press time.

Liquor offences, animalsincrease RCMP case lesNEIL CAMERON
COURIER-ISLANDER
Liquor related offences caused an increase of 31.6 per cent in
Campbell River RCMPs case files during the first half of 2014.
And animal calls was another category that increased over the
previ-ous year.
Putting two and two together, that seems about right.
But no, the animal calls were actually of the four-legged
variety, not those on all fours throwing up after consuming too
much alcohol and then causing other problems.
The greatest pro-portion of these calls relates to sightings and
encounters with wild-
life, typically bear and cougar, which depending upon the
situation could have been reported to Conservation Officers but
were rather directed to the RCMP, wrote Sgt. Jeff Preston of the
Campbell River RCMP in his 2014 second quarter report to city
council Tuesday night.
A significant portion of animal calls files also relate to
domestic dogs off-leash (barking, biting, and threaten-ing) which
appear most relevant to animal control or bylaws while several
additional files relate to animal cruelty which could arguably best
be investigated by the SPCA, he wrote. The remaining files
are mainly comprised of injured deer or dogs in distress dogs
left in hot vehicles in parking lots files frequently handled by
members.
According to the report liquor/intoxicat-ed files increased from
219 during the same per-iod the previous year to 291 in 2014.
And liquor/consume files almost tripled from 20 files in 2013
for the same period to 58 in 2014.
Preston said one of the reasons for that increase was the
initiatives of individual officers who were meeting the problem
head on dur-ing their regular work

Two Island men arrestedin major cocaine investigationGLACIER
NEWS SERVICE
Two Vancouver Island men have been arrested and a large amount
of cocaine has been seized after a boat rented from a Nootka Sound
fishing lodge was used in a possible drug-smuggling operation.
The file is being handled by the RCMPs federal serious organized
crime section but few details are being released about the sequence
of events around the drug operation and subsequent arrests.
The Victoria Rescue Co-ordination Centre was contacted Thursday
about
a boat that failed to return to the fishing lodge from which it
had been rented.
Rescue crews responded but could not locate the boat at sea.
Later, a passerby who enquired about the search told emergency
crews he had driven his vehicle past a boat fitting the same
description on a trailer on a nearby logging road in Nootka
Sound.
Gold River RCMP responded but RCMP federal drug investigators
quickly became involved.
Two men were arrested, said Sgt. Laurie White, with the RCMPs
federal policing section, although
she could not say where or when they were arrested.
White said she could not release the quantity of cocaine
seized.
The men have not yet been charged so their names are not being
released.
White said a multi-agency investigation is ongoing but would not
say if U.S. officials are involved.
In a RCMP report to city council Tuesday night, it was stated
that Campbell River RCMP were heavily involved in a major
inves-tigation involving cocaine, but no further details were
given.

CITY
CRIME
Continued from page 1.There is currently one park
within the City of Campbell Riv-er that is designated in the
Ani-mal Control Bylaw as an off-leash dog area, reported Milnthorp.
Penfield Park is a well-utilized leash-free park that is having
difficulty keeping up with the demand. The parks department has
received numerous requests for additional off-leash areas. The
public has requested more off-leash parks overall, parks located
closer to their home, parks locat-ed throughout the city, parks
with access to water, parks with off-leash trails to exercise their
dog and parks with open spaces for socializing and field games.
Milnthorp said the parks, with the exception of Willow Point
Park, would require minimal work.
He said most of the sites will only require a dog friendly water
fountain, bag dispensers, garbage cans, fencing and/or gates,
sign-age and minor trail repairs and/or the addition of ground
cover.
He said Willow Point Park would be more expensive because it
will also require exten-sive brush clearing and trail
development.
He said annual costs for all of the parks would include
addition-al garbage pick up, dog bags,minor annual trail repairs
and ground cover replacement and the cost of additional site visits
plus inspections from parks staff.
Milnthorp said the cost of cap-ital upgrades for 2014 to convert
Sequoia Park, Museum Park and McIvor Lake into off-leash areas is
included in the 2014 capital budget and the cost to maintain these
parks would be approxi-mately $15,500 annually begin-
ning in 2015. He said the cost of capital
upgrades for 2015 to convert Wil-low Point Park, Maryland Park
and Franzen Park into off-leash areas would be approximately
$107,000 and that they would cost $21,000 a year to maintain
begin-ning in 2015
He said over 2,050 residents purchase dog licenses annually in
the city.
Milnthorp said the costs of the off-leash parks are far
out-weighed by their benefits.
These proposed off-leash dog areas are expected to become some
of the most popular areas within the city of Campbell River parks
system, he said. Off-leash dog areas are multi-generational and
will attract residents and visitors alike. The relatively low
construction costs and low main-tenance costs will provide
numer-ous recreation opportunities for the reasonably small
investment. These types of sites provide out-door exercise for park
users who may not otherwise participate in organized sports they
will lead to increased physical activ-ity for both the dog and

THOMSON COURIER-ISLANDER
There was another break and enter at Campbell Riv-er Boatland on
Saturday when an unknown culprit cut the chain-link fence and three
kicker outboard motors were stolen from the compound.
This is the second time in a week the business has been hit with
the first attempt involving someone trying to drive through the
facilitys steel roll down door. That time, no entry was gained.
Evidence was recovered at the scene and is being examined by the
RCMP forensic identification section.
There was a break and enter to a
residence on the same day.On Sept. 13 RCMP responded to
a call from the 500 block of Birch Street when a homeowner
returned home to find the door had been pried open. Nothing appears
to have been stolen and no one was home at the time. Evidence was
recovered at the scene.
On Sept. 14 at 2:34 p.m.,there was a report of a theft from a
vehicle in the parking lot of 231 Birch Street. The callers
boyfriend interrupted the male reaching into the opened window
taking loose change. The male is described as Caucasian, 58,
approximately 40 years old, light blonde hair, wearing a sweater
wrapped around his waist and red and white skate shoes.

construction of ces
NEIL CAMERON COURIER-ISLANDER
One of Campbell Rivers earli-est schools, Campbellton
Elementary, is going back to the future.
Aecon SNC-Lavalin Joint Ven-ture (ASL JV), the company in charge
of BC Hydros $1 billion John Hart Generating Station relocation
project, wants to use the site for construction offices, stor-age
and utilities area for the next five to seven years.
The company and property owners E&D Properties, are ask-ing
the city to grant a major re-development permit for the site which
would include office trailers, parking, a carpentry and storage
area using existing buildings and pick-up area for workers going to
the actual construction site.
Because of the limited space available at the John Hart site,
parking is a problem. So part of the plan is to have workers park
at a parking lot which would be con-structed on the schools old
playingfield and then get bused up to the construction site.
The school opened in 1953, was closed in 2005 and sold to
E&D properties for $675k in 2011.
All of the proposed uses are allowed under the schools current
zoning which is Commercial 4.
In suggesting city council approve the application, city staff
said it is another economic driver for Campbell River.
While the proposed develop-ment is essentially temporary in
nature, the expected five to seven year duration of the project is
nonetheless significant and therefore the visual impact of the
development on the surroundings throughout this time period has
been carefully considered, said the report. The applicant has
worked with staff to achieve a site design that meets the
inten-tion of the Commercial Form and Character guidelines found
within the Official Community Plan. The development will not likely
to have any significant adverse impact on the neighbouring
properties.

Dave Coles, former Communica-tions, Energy and Paperwork-ers
Union National President and long-time environmentalist, is seeking
the NDP nomination in the newly-created Vancouver North Island -
Powell River riding.
Im proud to be putting my name forward to run to represent this
part
of the Island, said Coles. Ottawa has long ignored coastal
issues. Its time to take a stand and defend the interests of
residents of North Island and Powell River. This area is in
des-perate need of jobs an issue which decades of Conservative
representa-tives have totally disregarded. I know together, we can
do better and I intend to.
Coles has committed to signing up hundreds of new NDP members
and made his announcement at Unifors Canadian Council meeting Sept.
13 in Vancouver.
The nomination election date has not yet been set, but is
expected to take place in late November.
Coles is a life-long social justice advocate, trade union
activist and environmentalist. He served as the National President
of the Communi-cations, Energy and Paperworkers Union for more than
seven years, holding a number of key leader-ship positions in the
union and on the Alberta and BC Federations of Labour prior to his
election as president.
Coles opposes the Northern Gate-way pipeline and other projects
that he says put the interests of oil companies ahead of
communities including First Nations. He is a founding member of the
Council of Canadians, the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives
and the Park-land Institute.
Born on Vancouver Island, he lives in Campbell River with his
partner Karon Webber of more than 40 years.

The Campbell River auxiliary fire fighters got a helping hand
from Quality Foods who donated $3,675 to support people living with
muscular dystrophy. The funds came through the donation of all the
food and drinks provided for the Canada Day Pancake Breakfast. Seen

OpinionWe want to hear from you. Send your letters to

Why do so few ruin it for the many?Why is it usually the few who
ruin
it for the many?That is sadly once again the case
on the shores of our heritage river the Campbell and its
tributary the Quinsam where anglers were treated to a record pink
salmon run of over 1.5 million fish.
Anglers were allowed to retain four salmon per day and there
were very few who did not achieve that on a regular basis, such was
the bounty.
Where else in the world can child, adult, angler and new anglers
enjoy such a fishery in such beautiful
surroundings just minutes from the downtown of a vital little
city?
Where else can family bonds be re-inforced in the timeless
trad-ition? Where else can families put healthy and nutritious fare
not only on their table, but in their smok-ers, canners and
freezers for future consumption?
Where else can a population share natures abundance with bears,
eagles, minks, water fowl and aqua-tic animals in such splendorous
settings?
Only here.Yet some take that gift and treat it
with such disrespect it is impossible to comprehend.
And all it takes to correct the travesty is the long-held rule
of the outdoors person. Leave a place bet-ter than how you found
it.
But no, there are those who came to the river banks and left
behind their coffee cups, their used lines, their lure packages,
their beer cans, their babys diapers and all other manner of litter
and trash.
And now the fishery is but over and left behind is not our
beautiful, pristine rivers. Left behind is the virtual back alley
of a city. Like
a back alley, the river is seldom visited by many when the
fishery is over and the garbage is left to embarrass us all.
Thanks to BC Parks and the Campbell River Environmental
Committee, volunteers will be out in force this Saturday to right
the wrong. Perhaps if you were one of the culprits, or if you are
just some-one who cares, you could show up at the logging bridge on
the Camp-bell River at 10 a.m. Saturday and help restore our
sullied reputation.
Gloves, garbage bags, refreshment and redemption will be
provided.
Previous question:
Should the city go back to the bargaining table with its
union?

sovereignty?

BC Ferries working on route congestion
I am writing to update your readers about the new sailing
schedules that were imple-mented in April of this year.
After six weeks of community consultation by BC Ferries this
past spring, the schedules ori-ginally proposed by the provin-cial
government were refined on all of the affected routes to try to
introduce the best timetables that still met the service
reduc-tions outlined by the province.
Any change to ferry service takes some time to get used to,
however on several routes, including the Campbell Riv-er Quadra
Island Cortes Island routes, mid-day conges-tion issues have
arisen. Over the summer we heard from the Ferry Advisory Committee
(FAC) as well as hearing sug-gestions from other customers about
some refinements we could make to the schedules and we are
continuing to look at ways to address congestion concerns within
the scheduled number of sailings.
FACs are comprised of local community representatives who
volunteer their time to consult on operational issues relevant to
their community. They act as liaisons, relaying information to the
community and provid-ing BC Ferries with construct-ive advice and
insights into the concerns and opinions of local ferry users.
We certainly understand the vital role we play in maintain-ing
the quality of life for people
who live, work and travel in and around coastal British
Colum-bia. We will continue to work with the FAC this fall to get a
sense of community preference
about possible schedule tweaks that can be made to meet the
needs of the majority of ferry users while still achieving the net
savings set out by the prov-
incial government.

RealStream Propertiesacquires Timberline
VillageCOURIER-ISLANDER
RealStream Income Prop-erties LP has acquired Timberline
Village, the 30,000 square foot shopping centre located at 801
Hilchey Rd. in Camp-bell River.
The property is anchored by Shop-pers Drug Mart and the TD Bank
and is home to Campbell Rivers newest private liquor store Metro
Liquor as well as Papa Murphys Pizza, Sub-way, Quinsam Medical
Clinic and Fresh Dental.
This is a newly constructed plaza which was built in 2013.
Vancouver Island Portfolio Management firm, De Luca Veale
Investment Counsel Inc., launched the new income producing real
estate investment part of its busi-ness called RealStream Income
Properties LP.
The company press release said it is the first of its kind to be
offered and managed by a locally owned
Portfolio Management firm. They say their goal is to provide
con-servative investors a professionally managed portfolio of
income pro-ducing real estate.
RealStream says is will be pur-chasing larger, high quality
income properties that are typically reserved for pension funds or
publi-cally traded REITs. In purchasing larger properties,
RealStream is looking to afford local investors the opportunity to
invest directly in these types of properties with-out needing to
form their own investment group to do so. The two partners,
Campbell River born Richard De Luca and Jonathan Veale, invited
accredited real estate appraiser and former Vancouver Island Deputy
Assessor, James (Jim) Stewart, to leave BC Assess-ment and join
them in operating RealStream. Since the arrival of Mr. Stewart in
January, De Luca and Veale successfully completed the additional
securities registra-
tion required to offer RealStream directly to investors.
I love what RealStream is doing. By pooling the funds of a
number of investors, RealStream affords each investor the
opportunity to leverage the management teams expertise and own
larger, high quality Vancouver Island income-producing real estate,
which is often unattainable to the individual buyer, said Colliers
International Vice President and Managing Brok-er at Colliers Mid
Island, Jason Winton. Through RealStream, an investor can rely on
the knowledge and skills of seasoned financial and real estate
professionals and diversify among a number of dif-ferent properties
and asset classes. From what Ive seen during the due diligence
process, investors can rest assured that these guys are
details-oriented, taking every step to manage risk for their
clients while keeping an eye on the future upside of a
property.

2014 NEWS
SIAN THOMSON COURIER-ISLANDER
Concerned taxpayers on Cheviot and Peterson roads are flaming
mad over a property they are threatening to burn to the ground.
In a letter dropped off to the Courier-Islander office, the
Tax-payers said they have tried city hall, the health department,
and the regional district to no avail in taking action to rid the
neigh-bourhood of a house at 1711 Cheviot that residents say is an
eyesore.
We have enjoyed rotten odours, rats and had bad remarks made
about our neigh-bourhood, said the Taxpayers. The roof is caving in
and some-one is going to be hurt or get sick or killed. We the
people of Chev-iot and Petersen roads will burn it down on Oct. 31
so kids can at least have Halloween fireworks at the house at
Cheviot and
Peterson. Thanks for nothing. Campbell River City Clerk
Peter Wipper, confirmed that calls to the city have not been
ignored.
The owners were advised that the building needed to be
demol-ished and they applied for and received a demolition permit,
he said. I understand that delays have been caused by scheduling a
company to remove asbestos. I happen to know that the owner had an
excavator lined up, however it was called away and they are lining
up a new date to demolish the building.
Asbestos is a tough, heat-resist-ant mineral that was added to
the building materials of many older homes. It can pose health
hazards to workers and home-owners who renovate or demol-ish those
homes. It is still found today in many buildings, includ-ing homes,
schools and hospitals.

This dilapidated house on Cheviot Road will be torched by
neighbours if it is not demolished by Oct. 31, an anonymous letter
says.
Local riversneed helpfor clean-upCOURIER-ISLANDER
BC Parks and the Campbell River Environmental Committee (CREC)
needs your help to clean up the shoreline of the Quinsam and
Campbell rivers.
Unfortunately with the popularity of the fishing on the rivers
for pink salmon, some of the more unsavoury visitors to local wild
places seem bent on leaving nature holding
the bag, the garbage bag that is.
Garbage bags, gloves, water and refresh-ments will be provided.
It is an annual effort that the community always helps out with and
the more hands theless work there is. It takes place Saturday,
Sept. 20. Gather at the TimberWest (Comox) logging bridge on Hwy 28
across the Campbell River. Clean up will take place from 10 a.m. to
2 p.m.

Float plane pilothelps save manCOURIER-ISLANDER
A civilian float plane pilot, RCMP heli-copter and a 442
Transport and Rescue Squadron Cormorant heli-copter crew responded
to a report of an overturned canoe on Pye Lake on Tuesday, Sept. 9,
rescuing a man from the water.
At approximately 5:15 p.m., Joint Rescue Coordination Centre
Vic-toria dispatched a CH-149 Cormorant helicopter from 19 Wing
Comox to evacuate a male whose canoe had overturned on Pye Lake,
which is approximately 50 kilo-metres north of Campbell
River.Joint Rescue Coordina-
tion Centre Victoria had been notified of the over-turned canoe
by a passing aircraft.
An RCMP helicopter and a civilian float plane in the area also
responded to the incident.
It was the pilot of the float plane who arrived first on scene
and suc-ceeded in pulling the canoeist from the water. The
canoeist, who had been wearing a Personal Flotation Device, was
kept warm until 442 Squadron Search and Rescue Techni-cians arrived
to assess his condition.
Search and Rescue Tech-
nicians were not able to hoist the man into the Cormorant
helicopter due to his medical condition and instead stabilized the
canoeist in the civil-ian plane while the pilot taxied the aircraft
to shore.
Once on shore, the canoeist was transferred in stable condition
to BC Ambulance. The present medical condition of the canoeist is
unknown.
We want to thank the float plane pilot who took the initiative
to land his plane and help a person in danger, said Warant Officer
Stephane Roy from Search and Rescue Techni-cian, 442 Squadron.
