Cameron Orr Judy McHale is warning the public about a problem bear after her dog was killed last Wednesday. McHale and a friend were horseback riding in the Cablecar area with her eight- year-old lab when they en- countered a black bear — not entirely unusual, she said. What was unusual was that the bear began to follow them. “They usually don’t pay any attention to us,” she said. “This time he started follow- ing.” McHale and her friend trotted away faster on their horses and the dog followed behind. When she next looked back the bear was even closer so they took off quickly and the bear pursued. “He chased us for 200-to- 300 yards down that trail at a full gallop.” She then heard a yelp and a scream and that was the last she heard anything from her dog. She said the bear appeared to be in good health. “It looked like a very big, very healthy blue black bear. He was so healthy his coat shone blue,” she said. “It was also one of the biggest black bears I’ve ever seen, especial- ly in this area.” McHale is a hunter so is quite familiar with bears. She said the Conservation Office sent an officer right away and a trap was set. McHale’s husband went looking for the dog the fol- lowing morning but no re- mains were found. “I asked them to let me know whether they trap the bear or not. I can’t go in the area until the bear is out of there.” The Conservation Officer Service was sought for com- ment however no one could be reached before press dead- line.

Cameron OrrJudy McHale is warning

the public about a problem bear after her dog was killed last Wednesday.

McHale and a friend were horseback riding in the Cablecar area with her eight-year-old lab when they en-countered a black bear — not entirely unusual, she said.

What was unusual was that the bear began to follow them.

“They usually don’t pay any attention to us,” she said. “This time he started follow-ing.”

McHale and her friend trotted away faster on their horses and the dog followed behind. When she next looked

back the bear was even closer so they took off quickly and the bear pursued.

“He chased us for 200-to-300 yards down that trail at a full gallop.”

She then heard a yelp and a scream and that was the last she heard anything from her dog.

She said the bear appeared to be in good health.

“It looked like a very big, very healthy blue black bear. He was so healthy his coat shone blue,” she said. “It was also one of the biggest black bears I’ve ever seen, especial-ly in this area.”

McHale is a hunter so is quite familiar with bears.

She said the Conservation Offi ce sent an offi cer right away and a trap was set.

McHale’s husband went looking for the dog the fol-lowing morning but no re-mains were found.

“I asked them to let me know whether they trap the bear or not. I can’t go in the area until the bear is out of there.”

The Conservation Offi cer Service was sought for com-ment however no one could be reached before press dead-line.

Most of the Aboriginal communities in B.C. and Alberta along the proposed Northern Gate-way Pipeline route have signed on to an equity package with the company, Enbridge declared last week.

The company issued a statement on June 5 saying that by the May 31 deadline almost 60 per cent of eligible Aboriginal communities have agreed to be part owners in the proposed project, a deal that is expected to provide about $280 mil-lion to communities over the fi rst 30 years of the project’s life.

“Through equity ownership, Aboriginal people will be able to generate a signifi cant new and stable revenue stream that could help achieve the priorities of their communities – such as im-proved health care, education and housing,” said Enbridge spokesperson Paul Stanway in the com-pany’s release.

Stanway later told the Sentinel that the news should put an end to a long-standing criticism of the project.

“It ought to put to bed the argument that we often hear from opponents of Northern Gateway that there’s no Aboriginal support for the project. Clearly that’s not the case,” he said. “Clearly it’s not correct to say [there’s] this wall of opposition and no support for the pipeline.”

He added that everyone, the equity partners and the company, still have safety concerns and those are a priority for everyone.

“We’re obviously going to need a lot of en-vironmental monitoring and environmental stew-ardship,” said Stanway, adding that First Nations communities are in the best position to help pro-vide that service.

He also added that Aboriginal communities have an opportunity to be involved in some ma-rine aspects of the project.

“We’re hopeful we can put together an attrac-tive package that will make that happen.”

Enbridge is not free to reveal who it has signed deals with, as it’s up to the individual communi-ties to decide whether they want to go public.

The local Haisla continue to have no direct contact with Enbridge except on certain unre-solved confl icts, but are participating in the gov-ernmental review of the project.

“All we’re doing is participating in the Joint Review Panel,” said Haisla Nation Chief Council-lor Ellis Ross.

Continued from page 1Ross said he hasn’t seen any

names of who has signed on in the equity offer but would be very in-terested to see that list.

“How many of those First Na-tions actually have the pipeline running across some of their salm-on streams? That’s what I’d be re-ally interested in hearing about,” he said.

He would also like to know how many signed up with the com-pany to get out of a cycle of pov-erty, suicide and dependence.

“Holding an apple up to a First Nation like that, that’s only look-ing for a way out is very unfair, and very unfortunate.”

Beyond that, he thinks talk of benefi ts with this project is prema-ture anyway.

“I think it’s way too early to be talking about equity agreements or any type of benefi ts coming out

of the project when no real for-mal process for consultation and accommodation have been put in front of First Nations to review,” he said.

Meanwhile, Coastal First Na-tions executive director Art Sterritt called the Enbridge announcement last week a “sham”. In a media release he said they have checked with all the First Nations along the proposed pipeline route west of Prince George and found that only two have signed equity agree-ments.

He also said that Enbridge ex-panded the pipeline corridor by 80km to increase their numbers.

The Coastal First Nations is an alliance of First Nations that includes the Wuikinuxv, Heiltsuk, Kitasoo/Xaixais, Nuxalk, Gitga’at, Haisla, Metlakatla, Old Massett, Skidegate, and Council of the Hai-da Nation

KITIMAT STATS

Kitimat District Teachers Association mem-ber Kristine Lewis sent the Sentinel a four-point list of reasons why local teachers are protesting.

In condensed form those reasons are:1) The provincially assigned mediator, Dr.

Charles Jago, has no experience in such a task.2) Despite his experience in the post-second-

ary fi eld, no experience in K-12 schools.3) Bill 22 “directs the mediator to stop the

current teacher evaluation process,” and strips se-niority rights, among other things.

4) While the mediator has a “net zero” man-date, the government is paying $2,000 a day to the mediator to fi nd a resolution the government still can choose to reject.

Jago has until the end of June to work with the union and the employers’ association, and then he is to make recommendations for a settlement. In a conference call from Prince George in March, Jago said he is hopeful he can make progress if both sides are willing to work on solutions. Jago said he was involved with faculty negotiations at UNBC and a previous university post in Ontario, but he has no previous experience as a mediator.

A development permit was approved by council for Hype 11 Tea, a new loose leaf tea shop set to open at 360 City Centre. The permit is to allow for their exterior sign. The only question coun-cil had, which didn’t affect the application, regarded their logo — it looks like Hype X Tea in the provided graphic rather than Hype 11. The planning department did not know the reason for that disparity.

A development permit was approved for the Kitimat Pizza Factory to install a new exterior sign that advertises the busi-ness as a pizzeria and bistro. The design was approved by the Downtown Design Panel and no public comment was received on the proposal.

Council approved a temporary com-mercial use permit for a tattoo business on Angle Street. Public notice had been is-sued and no comment was received by the deadline. The operator has provided a copy of a Northern Health inspection report that granted public health approval. There will be no outside indication of the business. The TECUP expires in two years.

TransCanada tagged to build gas line to KitimatTransCanada has been

selected by Shell Canada and its partners to develop a $4 billion natural gas pipeline to Kitimat for the LNG Canada project.

The pipeline, called the Coastal Gaslink project, will run from near Dawson Creek and transport gas produced in the Montney, Horn River and Cordova basins.

“Our team has the expertise to design, build and safely operate pipeline systems,” said TransCanada president Russ Girling in a statement. “We look forward to having open and meaningful discussions with Aboriginal communities and key stakeholder groups, including local residents, elected offi cials and the Government of British Columbia, where we will listen to feedback, build on the positive and seek to address any potential concerns.”

TransCanada has approximately 24,000 km of pipelines in western Canada, which

includes 240 km in Northeast B.C.

The company said that they estimate between 2,000 and 2,500 jobs for construction over a three year period.

The initial capacity will be above 1.7 billion cubic feet of gas a day.

The in-service date is currently expected by the end of the decade with construction starting in 2015, based on the company receiving all their approvals by early 2014.

Haisla Chief Councillor Ellis Ross said that while no offi cial referral relating to the project has come to the Haisla from the Crown yet, TransCanada has had an open line of communication

with them.The Haisla do have

questions relating to the project that they look forward to having addressed as the process proceeds.

“The pipeline route is going to be a big deal for us. There’s a lot of different issues and questions we have to answer,” said Ross, notably relating to environmental issues, particularly as the scale of the project is so large.

Following the TransCanada announcement, the company has committed to being available to local governments and the company will be meeting with the District of Kitimat in the near future.

Watching and reading the daily news of the world, many things irk me. Some amuse me, puzzle me, send me into bouts of hilarious laughter and some de-press me, just minutes later.

Irk – Unctuous former B.C.-Premier Gordon Campbell, now Canadian High Commissioner to the United Kingdom of Brit-ain and Northern Ireland explain-ing gushingly to the CBC how he’ll host a reception to mark the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth at Canada House in Lon-don’s Trafalgar Square. Queen Elizabeth is busy elsewhere and won’t be there, but prominent London-based Canadians and guests will sip tea, chomp down on cucum-ber sandwiches and strawberries and cream – all courtesy of the Canadian taxpayer, most of whom will be working that day to help pay for the soiree.

Irk – She expects to be known as the Honourable Bev Oda, but I would just as soon not acknowledge the honourable part, which is so rarely demonstrated by Oda. As a minister of international cooperation, she even has diffi culty cooperating with simple parliamentary rules and regulations, while she rules her own department like a queen, all the while spatting with the voracious Canadian media, which is on her trail like hounds on a wounded fox.

Oda is just one of Stephen Harper’s major liabilities and she is again back in the news for refusing to explain her ludicrous personal expense and travel accounts. She

even declines to explain frequent changes that have been made to her documentation of the many thousands of dollars of Canadi-an taxpayers’ money she spends annually.

Few can understand why Harper con-tinues to defend this leech.

Amuse, but in a seriously wry way - The new salary “cap” for NHL teams has increased for next season to $70.3-million. Five years ago it was $39-million. Why bother? There are teams paying single play-ers $10 million a season, one third of the 2006 cap. There are so many ways of get-ting around the “cap” that it is meaningless. (Except when used to skin rookie players out of what they are really worth on an open market.)

Shortly, we’ll be back where we were with teams like New York Rangers dem-onstrating every year that even with no cap limit it’s still extremely diffi cult to buy your way to a Stanley Cup. The Leafs were in that same category. The NHL is in total disarray, but to listen to Gary Bettman, the commis-sioner, the golden years are here! Will we ever see another Stanley Cup in Canada?

Irk (so many of these) - Vancouver

Police Chief, Jim Chu, stonewall-ing media questions about offi cer indiscretions, including the actions of Constable Lee Chipperfi eld. Oddly, on the day Chu was named Vancouver’s top cop (Aug 13, 2007 – nearly fi ve years ago) Chipper-fi eld shot a man eight times because he thought he was a threat to him. Now damning video has emerged

to show the fi nal shot by Chipperfi eld was fi red into the head of a helpless Paul Boyd, as he crawled on hands and knees to give himself up. Two years later prosecu-tors reviewing police reports of the incident declined to prosecute. Now Chu has asked an “independent” group Alberta police of-fi cers to investigate. To serve and protect – especially brothers on the force. Ludicrous, pathetic and a further demonstration of the seemingly endless failures of law enforce-ment -- when it comes to police killings, guns, tasers, drunk drivers, sexual harassers – ugh.

Hilarity – listening to Premier Christy Clark, declining billionaire Richard Bran-son’s ‘offer’ to ride on his back on a kite surfi ng expedition. Branson apparently of-fended Clark when he told her to “check the dress code” and she saw a media photo of Branson kite surfi ng with a naked model clinging to his back. She, like the provincial queen she is, was “not amused!” Come to think of it, that would be a sight to see, com-parable the nude pics of a certain northern B.C. mayor, a few years ago.

A cyclical argument

Bike to Work Week has just come to an end. It was May 28 to June 3 in case you were wondering.

Given the job that I have, I don’t have the opportunity to enjoy a daily bike commute to work. If I did, I’m certain there’d be a few stories through the year that I’d miss.

And no one wants that.That said I have taken some opportuni-

ties since moving back to Kitimat to get on the bike to work.

I realize of course that cycling to the of-fi ce is not something everyone has the abil-ity or energy to do, but if there’s something I can say about it for those who can is that it’s remarkable how little time you lose and how good it feels.

It also doesn’t hurt the bank.My commute begins from approximately

the downtown area, and to get to the Sentinel in the Service Centre, it takes only 15 min-utes on bike. It should also be noted I’m nor-mally tragically inactive in my day, so that’s 15 minutes for an out of shape guy.

So for 30 minutes of my day I can cycle to work, not a bad trade off if I can give my-self that little bit of extra time.

I wanted to know more about the benefi ts, so I used an online calculator at bcgasprices.com — a website that records current gas prices in the province — to fi nd out what my vehicle commute would be like.

It tells me that my return trip to work costs 71 cents (at $1.31 a litre), and leaves a 3.39lbs carbon footprint, whatever that means in layman’s terms.

I’m sure it’s an approximation, but it’s nice to have those numbers to work with.

Monetarily, I’ll save a modest $30 a year if I bike to work twice a week for the 21 weeks I assume it to be nice — beginning of May to mid-September.

But the feeling of good health and ac-complishment is something I can’t ignore either.

And hey, $30 is $30.- Cameron Orr

Traffic concernsDear sir,

With the amount of traffi c increasing in Kitimat due to con-struction and expan-sion of property in the Kildala area, specifi -cally the “intersection” of Lahakas and Quatsi-no Blvd, there is now a road that goes straight through, an extension of Lahakas.

I have noticed many trucks use this extension and there have been a number of

close calls involving traffi c at this uncon-trolled intersection.

Most recently, a truck proceeding straight through while I was attempting to make a left turn from Quatsino onto Lahakas Blvd.

This intersection has become a hazard to

motorists and should be controlled as a three way stop before some-thing more serious happens.

I think it is time that the district address this issue a little more seriously.

I notice on Laha-kas Blvd. proceding south there is a newly erected sign that warns of trucks crossing at the intersection, however, this is not enough.

“HIV does not change who you are.”

HIV is a real concern within our communities. You can

contract HIV primarily through unprotected sex and by

sharing needles. HIV can live in your body for years without

you knowing and all the while you can be passing it to others.

At least 25 per cent of people who are HIV+ do not know

and these 25 per cent are estimated to be responsible for

75 per cent of new infections. Northern Health, in collaboration

with its community partners, is working with the Province of

BC to prevent the spread of HIV by expanding HIV testing,

treatment, and support services to British Columbians.

Educate yourself, your family

and your friends about HIV.

Visit HIV101.ca today.

Educate: The only way to know you are

not positive is by getting tested.

Request an HIV test today.

Test: Please share your new

knowledge about HIV with

others, and please encourage

everyone to get an HIV test.

Thousands of jobs...Over 3,000 direct construction jobs will be created in British Columbia at the peak of construction. As well, 560 new long-term jobs will be generated in BC.

World-class safety standards...Carefully planned and built to respect the terrain and wildlife, the pipeline will be monitored 24/7. To protect the waters and coastline of BC, marine facilities will adopt additional navigation aids, increase emergency response capabilities, and implement new land-based radar so that Canada’s Northwest Coast is safer for all marine traffic.

A stronger BC economy with new trade partners...There will be more opportunities and towns will prosper. It will open up global markets for our energy exports and increase Canada’s Gross Domestic Product by $270 billion.

Millions of dollars for community projects...Over 30 years, more than $1.2 billion in tax revenue for BC can be used to strengthen public services. Enbridge will also provide $100 million to support communities near the pipeline.

It’s more than a pipeline. It’s a path to our future.
