    BULLPINE BULLPINE 181 Vernon Ave. Kamloops, BC - 1-800-482-3459 - steelworkers1-417.ca Summer 2017 Clearwater May Day Parade The theme for The Clearwater May Day Parade this year was Canada 150. A few USW members and Canfor Vavenby staff, along with their families got together for the fifth year to build a float. The theme of our float was: A History of the Vavenby Sawmill. The mill was established in 1941 when Frank Capostinsky came from Alberta on behalf of Bob Swanson and bought a few of the original mills in the valley and set up the company known as CTP (Clearwater Timber Products). In 1986 CTP was bought by Slocan which then merged with and became known as Canfor in 2004. In the mid 1950's the mill unionized and the workers became part of the IWA (International Woodworkers of America) which merged with The United Steelworkers in 2004. A big thank you to all the helpers especially Keith for the design and organization of the work. The figures on top represent the “Loggers Sports Days” the community used to have to celebrate the Forest Industry in the valley. Big Barriere Block Party The second annual Big Barriere Block party was a huge success. Despite the cloudy and rainy weather, approximately 1000 people came out to enjoy the festivities . The action started with a bike rodeo for the kids from 12-2 and continued on with children's games, a vendors market, bouncy castles and live entertainment . The Big Barriere Block Party part 2 was only possible because of amazing sponsors like The United Steelworkers.

  • Principals Involved in Lucid Plan Aren?T Done with Aurora
    This page was exported from - The Auroran Export date: Thu Sep 30 6:36:34 2021 / +0000 GMT Principals involved in Lucid plan aren?t done with Aurora By Brock Weir With Aurora Live! dead in the water, enough time has passed for heads to cool and assess the situation. But George Roche, founder of Lucid Productions, the group that brought forward the Aurora Live! festival isn't completely done with Aurora. 2014, he said, is definitely a possibility. ?I would love to [bid on a festival] if we can get the ?Wild, Wild West' politics and the cynicism projected by [Councillor Chris Ballard] which I believe rises out of the treatment unto the Aurora Jazz Fest organizers,? said Mr. Roche, referring to the war of words between himself and the Councillor while the festival was still on the table. ?We always had a great feeling of working with Aurora and nothing has changed. When things go a little bit sideways obviously politicians start to protect themselves and their own credibility within the Town, but in this case the credibility wasn't protected.? Credibility also took a hit, he claims when Councillor Abel began to get ?demanding? on which bands should take to the stage and how much they should be paid, as well as what he describes as a ?spectacle? being made out of their references. ?2013 is out of the question [for a festival],? he said. ?We're very sorry it didn't go the way we had proposed. It wasn't anything to do with our actions, certainly being the lead writer and the pitchmen for the plan, I certainly wouldn't have done anything to hijack my own proposal.

For over a decade, the CPCC has represented copyright holders before the Copyright Board of Canada. The Board establishes the levies that may be collected after trial-like hearings where experts, representing music rights holders and organizations that represent consumers and businesses that sell leviable blank media, present evidence and are cross-examined. The private copying levy has been an important part of the Canadian copyright regime since 1999, when the first private copying tariff was certified by the Copyright Board, following amendments made to the Copyright Act (the “Act”) in 1997 to allow for a levy to be placed on blank audio recording media. Currently, the levy only applies to blank CDs and MiniDiscs, at a rate of 29 cents per unit, and is paid by manufacturers and importers of these blank media to the CPCC for distribution to rights holders. The private copying levy has provided an effective mechanism whereby consumers are allowed to make copies of music for their personal use without infringing copyright and, in exchange, music creators receive royalties that recognize the value of private copies of their work.

Little more than a week after Council decided to scrap hopes for a 2013 music festival and cast their sights on 2014 instead, two groups came forward see if something could be salvaged for this year. While the proposals came from both from within and outside of the community, community is the very focus of what both groups pitched to Council on Tuesday. The first, was a music and arts festival pitched by Habachat, a local social media company. ?Our main mandate is to support our local community, local charities and local businesses by running local events,? said Tim Newnham of Habachat. ?We have successfully created a number of events like Iron Chef Aurora, and Taste of Aurora, and we have a strong belief that engaging the local community members and local events is the way we have a vital community. That is our belief and we will continue to do that with events four times a year throughout the Town to engage that. ?Our vision is to have more of a grassroots type of thing and take it back to Aurora Town Park.
