Premier Christy Clark sat in the visitor seats of the British Columbia legislature on June 26, as her government’s throne speech renewed the B.C. Liberal commitments from the May election.

Lt. Governor Judith Guichon read a brief speech to open a rare summer session of the legislature, reiterating government commitments for four consecutive bal-anced budgets and a freeze on carbon tax and most personal income tax rates.

Clark attended before returning to duties as premier and a campaign for a seat in Westside-Kelowna in a byelection set for July 10.

“Waiting to take a seat makes it a little bit harder to get down to business as quickly as I’d like, but I’m not letting that get in the way,” Clark told reporters on a visit to a care facility under construction in Saanich.

“We called the legislature back before I had a seat because we want to get this bal-anced budget passed.”

NDP house leader John Horgan called it a “bogus” budget that aims to hold health care spending below one per cent growth, a target not seen since the Social Credit restraint program of the early 1980s.

The legislature is to sit until July 25, debating the budget and the spending estimates for all government ministries as required by law.

The first order of business on June 26 was the unanimous election of veteran Richmond East B.C. Liberal MLA Linda Reid as speaker of the legislature.

Coquitlam-Burke Mountain B.C. Liberal MLA Doug Horne was elected deputy speaker and Burnaby-Edmonds NDP MLA Raj Chouhan is assistant deputy speaker.

Canada Day Celebrated at 108 Heritage Site Canada Day Celebrated at 108 Heritage Site The Canadian Safe

Boating Council (CSBC) and the BC Wildlife Federation (BCWF) remind anglers that wearing their lifejackets is even more important than wearing their ‘lucky fishing hats.”

But they do share one trait – they both have to be worn to be effective.

According to the CSBC and the Lifesaving Society, 80 per cent of recreation-al boaters who drown each in Canada were not wearing a lifejacket or Personal Floatation Device (PFD). Most of these drownings occur in small, open power boats, accounting for 60 per cent of these preventable deaths. A majority of these victims were males between 19

and 35 years, out for a day of fishing.

Many of those who don’t wear their life-jackets or PFDs believe that, since they are good swimmers, hav-ing them onboard and within easy reach is good enough. However, a lifejacket stored under a seat or up in the bow will be of no help when the unexpected hap-pens, such as/ falling overboard while trying to net the catch.

Many of today’s anglers are delight-ed with the PFD models, which are designed especially to suit their needs. They’re rugged, allow for full freedom of movement to cast and are con-structed with lots of pockets for gear.

When choosing their lifejacket, anglers should also check the label to make sure it is Transport Canada approved, is the correct size and fits snugly.

Fishing is a part of

our Canadian fabric and an activity that’s easy to get hooked on. At this important time of year, the CSBC and BCWF ask those who fish to ‘Get Hooked on Lifejackets,’ too.

100 Mile RCMP responded to 103 com-plaints and calls for service during the past week.

Long weekend sum-mary:

100 Mile House Traffic Services and 100 Mile House RCMP maintained a presence on the highways during the long weekend.

• Overall, 60 tickets

and 33 warnings were issued. The majority of these offences were speed related.

• There were five inci-dents of excessive speed. These speeds ranged from 46 to 64 km/h over the posted speed limit, which resulted in a violation ticket being issued under the Motor Vehicle Act and the driver’s vehicle being towed and impounded for seven days.

• Four drivers were issued violation tickets for being either unli-censed or prohibited from driving.

Busy long weekend for local RCMP membersPolicereport

National Fishing Week in Canada

By Lorie ChortykWith summer fast approach-

ing, it’s time to remind pet guardians across British Columbia about the serious con-sequences for pets left inside cars on hot days.

Every year, the SPCA receives hundreds of complaints about dogs left in hot cars because many people still don’t grasp the danger of this situation. Even if you park in the shade and it seems cool outside when you leave, the sun can change direc-tion and heat up a car’s interior in no time.

Many people assume they will be just a few minutes at a bank or convenience store, only to be delayed and return too late to save their pet. Pets left in hot cars can begin to suffer irreparable brain damage or death in as little as 10 minutes.

If you see a dog languishing in a hot car, please call the BC SPCA animal cruelty hotline (1-855-622-7722), the RCMP or your local police.

Before the authorities arrive, members of the public can help prevent a tragedy by attempting to find the animal’s guardian. If

the car is in a mall or grocery store parking lot, for example, ask to have the owner paged over the building’s PA system. Return to the car to monitor the dog’s condition.

In addition to not leaving pets in the car at this time of year, guardians should use caution when exercising their pets under the sweltering summer sun. A lot of dogs will run and play to the point of exhaustion, and it’s the guardian’s responsibility to make sure that doesn’t happen.

‘Dog days of summer’ can be dangerous

Prosperity Mine open to opinion

Panel hearings imminent for interested citizens

carole Rooney

Free Press

Several individuals in the

South Cariboo who hold

Interested Party (IP) status for

the proposed New Prosperity

Mine project are honing

their presentations with the

public hearing process set to

begin in Williams Lake on

July 22.IP Al Roberts says he will

attend the hearing to show

his support of the project and

relay his concerns about eco-

nomic health, wealth

and future of 100 Mile

House to the federal

review panel.

“I am absolutely

100 per cent in sup-

port of the mine and,

therefore, the future

of this whole area.

This is the only eco-

nomic ‘bright light’

that’s coming up.”

After 32 years in local busi-

ness, Roberts explains he has

witnessed a declining econo-

my. He notes anyone

can see the “reality”

of the pine-beetle

devastation to for-

estry, and the schools

closing, as families

move away.

Roberts says he

hopes the mine

will bring families

and youth back

into the community because

the four-day shift “will

work” for people who live as

far away from the mine as

Bridge Lake.

“I know where we were yes-

terday, I know where we are

right now, and I am deeply

concerned if we don’t get this

[mine] where we are going

to be tomorrow – and it’s not

going to be good.”

IP Patricia Spencer says she

opposes the mine and will

address the panel on behalf

of the Friends of Fish Lake

organization.

Cowboy Clint Maier from Merritt took up sailing on the back of Pretty Girl in the exciting saddle bronc event at the 64th

Annual Bridge Lake Stampede at the Bridge Lake Rodeo Grounds on June 29. Sunshine and very warm temperatures

prevailed during the one-day rodeo.

DID YOU KNOW: CataractsA cataract is any clouding or opacity in the crystalline lens - the transparent lens inside the eye. Most cataracts develop as part of the aging process. Optometrists feel that prolonged exposure (over years) to sunlight can damage the lens and plays a role in cataract development. Sunglasses are an effective way of slowing the long-term progress of most cataracts.

CMHA BC exceeds fundraising goal in Ride Don’t Hide event

Nearly 2,200 cyclists in 13 communities across British Columbia came together to help CMHA surpass its $400,000 fun-draising goal to support mental health programs for women and their families.

The money raised from the ride this year will go toward pro-grams to support mental health for women and families.

The event was held on Sunday, June 23 in 13 communities across B.C., as well as in York Region –

an area north of Toronto, Ont. By all accounts, the first

province-wide Shoppers Drug Mart “Ride Don’t Hide” in 100 Mile House was a success. In 100 Mile, 69 cyclists participated in the community ride – the total funds raised is still to be deter-mined.

“I would like to thank every-one – especially our event sponsor Shoppers Drug Mart – for making the second ‘Ride Don’t Hide’ event such a tre-

mendous success,” says South Cariboo branch executive direc-tor Maggie Patterson Dickey.

“It was truly inspiring to see so many people come out to support their family members, friends, co-workers, neighbours – anyone living with mental ill-ness.”

CMHA is still accepting donations online at www.ride donthide.com, or through its local branches. Contact 1-800-555-8222 for more information.

The provincial government has provided $91,000 to the Cariboo Regional District and $22,000 to the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast Invasive Plant Committee to control the spread of invasive plants.

The funding will be invested in activities, such as raising pub-lic awareness, surveying invasive plant populations and actively treating high-priority sites to control the spread of invasive plants.

Invasive plants are not native to a particular ecosys-tem and have the potential to displace long-established species. They can cause considerable economic and environmental damage.

Invasive plants may disrupt natural ecosystems, reduce bio-diversity, increase soil erosion, alter soil chemistry and adversely affect commercial crops.

This is part of 28 grants being

given province-wide to local governments, regional inva-sive species committees and the Invasive Species Council of British Columbia to assist their activities and support the objectives of the pro-vincial Invasive Plant Program. This fund-ing is in addition to the $534,000 already ear-marked by the Ministry of Forests, Lands, and Natural Resource Operations for invasive plant control and man-agement in 2013/14.

“Invasive plants are a real prob-lem in the Cariboo-Chilcotin, and that’s why our government is taking action to stop their spread. This funding will give a boost to the Cariboo Regional District and the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast Invasive Plant Committee as they work to reduce the impact of invasive

species,” says Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett.

FAST bytes• The Invasive Plant Program

identifies sites where invasive plant species have been found and responds rapidly to con-tain and eradicate them before they become established and start spreading.

• Currently, some of the most intrusive plants in B.C. are orange and

yellow (non-native) hawkweeds, garlic mustard, cord grasses and knotweed.

• Other targeted species include knapweed, giant hog-weed, black henbane, blueweed, common tansy, tansy ragwort, hoary alyssum, field scabious, leafy spurge, purple loosestrife, yellow flag iris, Himalayan bal-sam and Scotch broom.

Cariboo-Chilcotin receives invasive plant funding

Wildfire Management Branch (WMB) aircraft based at the Cariboo Fire Centre (CFC) in Williams Lake patrolled the region during the Canada Day long weekend, looking for possible lightning-strike holdovers (smoulder-ing underground) and other signs of smoke.

Two wildfires were spotted on July 1 by these patrols – both in the Chilcotin. Both of these wildfires were person-caused and are currently under inves-tigation.

So far this season, the Chilcotin has seen 26 person-caused fires and one lightning-caused fire.

There were also two lightning-caused wild-fires on July 1, both reported by the public.

WMB aircraft patrolled for holdovers on July 2, concentrating

on the CFC’s north-east region (Horsefly/Likely/Quesnel Lake/Cariboo Lake/Bowron Lake areas), where there were hundreds, if not thousands, of lightning strikes over the long weekend.

Throughout the prov-ince on July 1, there were approximately 20,000 lightning strikes.

There have been a total of 52 wildfires in the CFC so far this sea-son, 43 person-caused and nine lightning-caused, burning 1,063 hectares.

The CFC reminds the public there is an open burning prohibi-tion in place, banning any waste, slash or grass fires, which came into effect on April 15. The CFC would also like to remind the public to be vigilant with any type of fire use, including campfires.

To report a wildfire or unattended campfire, call 1-800-663-5555 or *5555 on your cell phone.

For more information on open fire restrictions or for updates on cur-rent wildfire activity, visit www.bcwildfire.ca.

The 108 Golf Resort Men’s Club had a good turnout of 67 golfers on June 26.

The first-flight low-gross winner was Jim Laird with 36. Matt McNeil and John McNeil tied for second with 39, but Matt took it on a count back.

Bill Stokes took the low gross in the second flight with a 40. Karam Parsad was second by shooting 41 and Dan Hadden fin-ished third with a 42.

The third-flight low-gross champ was Peter Messner with 43, followed by Dan McCafferty with 44, and Tom Lund with 46.

Low-net winners in the first flight were Al Sidor in first with 32, Dean McNeil taking second on a count back with Jim Zailo third – both with 34.

Second flight first to third were Tim Giesbrecht with 33, Tyler Earl with 34, and Jim French with 35.

The third-flight low-net winners first to third were Terry Barrick with 31, Al Smeds with 34, and Ed Cassie with 35.

Long drive winners Laird, Tyler Earl and Carson Walker.

Closest-to-the-pin winning shots were made by Sidor, Theo Wiering and Messner.

Long putt of the day went to Dennis Thompson.

The club raffled off a driver and it went to Bill Harris.

Men’s Club golfs every Wednesday.

Men’s Club tees off

Tom Lund has been working on his putting and it has been paying dividends. He finished third in third flight low gross on Men’s Night at the 108 Golf Resort on June 26.

Devices requir-ing rechargeable batteries are everywhere – Smartphones, power tools, small appliances such as hand-held vac-uum cleaners, and even children’s toys.

Because they are so common, it is easy to forget that these devices and their chargers may create fire hazards.

A house fire in North Grenville, Ont. involved a malfunction-ing battery charger that overheated and caused $200,000 in damage. A $450,000 house fire in Kingston, Ont. resulted from using a battery charger with the wrong kind of battery.

“A battery fire could happen if a device with a defective battery is left unattended and it overheats,” says Canada Safety Council (CSC) president Jack Smith. “Also, wireless devices should be kept away from anything that could catch fire, such as a bed, pillows, or papers.”

To safeguard your home and personal safety, the CSC has the following recommenda-tions for the usage of rechargeable batteries and battery chargers.

• Locate your bat-tery recharging station in a safe area, such as a tabletop clear of any other objects – never near anything flam-mable. Be careful not to overload any power bars or outlets.

• Whenever possible, recharge batteries while you are present in the home. Have a working smoke detector in the room where the batter-ies are being recharged, and make sure a fire extinguisher is nearby if needed.

• Shut off battery-powered devices, such as laptops and tablet

computers, when they are not in use.

• Do not leave lap-tops, tablets, cell phones or similar devices unat-tended on couches or beds, or in other areas where they may over-heat and come into contact with potentially flammable materials.

• Ensure good air cir-culation around devices at all times.

• Make a habit of removing old batter-ies from your home at least once or twice a year. Check with your municipality for haz-ardous waste collection sites, or drop-off sites at retail stores.

• Check for bat-tery recalls on Health Canada’s Consumer Products Safety website.

• Never put non-rechargeable bat-teries in a battery charger. Recharge rechargeable batteries using the correct char-ger.

• When recharging batteries, do not mix brands of batteries.

• In your devices, do not mix rechargeable and disposable batter-ies.

Be wary of using rechargeable

batteries, battery chargers

Around the South Cariboo

The Bridge Lake Community School Society Pie Sale held at the Bridge Lake Stampede on June 29, saw all 50 pies and many other home-baked goods sold, and more than $900 raised for the society. Society members Celeste Faessler, left, Pam Canty and Gail Larson had a hand in baking and donating the sweet treats.

At the recent Cariboo Regional District’ Board on the Road Community barbecue at the Lac la Hache Community Hall, directors gathered together with some Lac la Hache Volunteer Fire Department mem-bers.

Five-year-old Rylee Trozzo of the 108 Ranch received a random draw prize pack sup-plied by the Screaming Reel and distributed by Rob Fry, right, of Car ibooRadio .com during the Fathers Day Fishing Derby. Dad Ryan Trozzo, left, noted it was Rylee’s birthday and this was a great surprise for him.

Volunteers for 100 Mile Festival of the Arts were rewarded with a tea party at the Horse Lake area ranch of committee member Christiane Nauen on June 22. The weather was sunny, making it an enjoyable day for everyone.

Signs of heatstroke in pets:• Exaggerated panting (or the sudden stopping of panting);• Rapid or erratic pulse;• Salivation;• Weakness and muscle tremors;• Lack of coordination;• Convulsions or vomit-ing; and• Collapse.

If your dog shows symptoms of heat-stroke, you should:

• Immediately move the animal to a cool, shady place;• Wet the dog with cool water (do not apply ice as it constricts blood flow);• Fan vigorously to pro-mote evaporation;• Allow the dog to drink some cool water; and• Take the dog to a vet-erinarian.

Two Surrey residents accused of planting pressure cooker bombs outside the British Columbia legislature on Canada Day are described by police as “Al-Qaeda-inspired” but “self-radicalized.”

B.C. RCMP arrested John Stewart Nuttall and Amanda Marie Korody in Abbotsford at 2 p.m. on July 1 after a five-month inves-tigation that began in February.

The alleged home-grown terror plot is similar to that of the Boston Marathon bombers, who used pressure cooker bombs to send shrapnel

through the crowd near the race’s finish line on April 15.

RCMP seized three explosive devices made from pressure cookers that contained nails, bolts, nuts and wash-ers that were placed on the legislative assembly grounds.

Nuttall, 38 and

Korody, 29, are charged with making or possess-ing an explosive device, conspiracy to commit an indictable offence, and knowingly facilitat-ing terrorist activity.

“These individu-als were inspired by Al-Qaeda ideol-ogy,” RCMP Assistant Commissioner James Malizia said. “Our investigation has determined this was a domestic threat without international linkages.”

The alleged motive of the two accused is not clear, but there is no indication of any connection to Islamic beliefs or religion.

The RCMP stated the pair “took steps to build explosive devices and place them at the British Columbia Legislature in Victoria where crowds were expected to gather on Canada Day.”

The legislative lawn and inner harbour were crowded with an esti-mated 40,000 revellers for the Canada Day concert and fireworks.

Police aren’t saying if undercover officers were working with the duo, but Malizia said they were being closely monitored and police ensured the bombs were inert and could not detonate.

“While the RCMP believed this threat was real, at no time was the security of the public at risk. We detected the threat early and disrupt-ed it.”

The arrests were made after a joint inves-tigation of the RCMP E Division, the Canadian Border Services Agency and the Canadian

Surrey duo arrested in bomb plot

Continued on 12Business break-inOn June 26, 100 Mile RCMP responded to a

report of break-and-enter to a business in the 300 block of Birch Street in 100 Mile House.

Unknown culprits pried open a rear door and gained access to the business. They appeared to have been scared away when the audible alarm went off and nothing appeared to have been taken from the store.

Shed break-inSometime between June 8 and 27, unknown

culprits broke into a shed on a property on Eagan Lake and stole several items, including fuel containers, a log splitter, a weed-eater and life jackets.

If you have any information on this or any other crimes in the 100 Mile House area call 1-800-222-TIPS (8477). Your identity will remain unknown. Should your information lead to the arrest of the responsible party Crime Stoppers will pay cash for the TIP.

Security Intelligence Service, dubbed Project Souvenir.

“I want to reassure our citizens that at all times during the inves-tigation, our primary focus was the safety and protection of the pub-lic,” Malizia said.

Nor was the Canada Day crowd in Victoria the only potential target that may have been con-templated.

“The suspects were committed to acts of violence and discussed a wide variety of tar-gets and techniques,” RCMP Assistant Commissioner Wayne Rideout said, adding they were “self-radical-ized” and aimed to cause “maximum impact to Canadian citizens at the B.C. Legislature on a national holiday.”

A variety of covert investigation methods were used to control

any method the sus-pects had to commit harm, he added.

Rideout said the bombs are believed to have been made in Surrey and at other locations in B.C.

“As these devices were constructed, we were in very tight con-trol. We were confident that public risk was absolutely minimized.”

Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts said the two alleged terrorists have lived in Surrey for about 18 months and had a transient lifestyle, mov-ing fluidly in the region from Delta to Surrey to Vancouver.

She couldn’t say whether the pair had substance abuse issues.

“I can’t confirm that, I know that they had significant challenges in their life,” Watts said.

She also understands they gathered much of their information about what they were doing

from the Internet.“I think they’re fairly

unsophisticated,” Watts said.

Korody has no prior criminal charges, but Nuttall was convicted of robbery in 2003 in Victoria and received an 18-month conditional sentence. An addicted drug user at the time, Nuttall had hit a busi-nessman on the head with a rock and stole his briefcase.

In March 2010, he was convicted of assault, mischief and possessing a weapon for a danger-ous purpose – also in Victoria – and received a 60-day conditional sentence (house arrest) and one year of proba-tion.

Nuttall and Korody appeared in Surrey Provincial Court on July 2 and make their next appearance July 9.

Victoria was the site of at least one terror-ist plot in the past, the

Millennium bomber plot in 2000. Ahmed Ressam, an Algerian member of Al Qaeda, assembled bomb mate-rials while staying at a Vancouver motel, then loaded them in the trunk of his car and travelled to Victoria.

Ressam attempted to enter the United States on the MV Coho ferry from Victoria to Washington, but he was arrested by U.S. border security at Port Angeles.

Police call it case of domestic terrorism, inspired by ‘Al-Qaeda’From 11
