Hudson’s Hope RCMP responded to 19 calls for service between November 16th and
December 15th. 60 written violations and warning tickets were issued to drivers be-
tween the above dates with 47 of those violations being speeding in the school
zone along Beattie Dr. Highway and road safety continues to be a big focus for the
Hudson’s Hope RCMP with the school zone along Beattie Drive and the construction
zones along Hwy 29 being the largest focuses for traffic enforcement at this time.
Police have been monitoring the increased volume of commercial trucks through
Hudson’s Hope as well as the securement of the loads of the gravel trucks that have
been hauling large rock and gravel to and from the various construction sites along
Hwy 29. Several violation tickets have been issued to drivers for insecure loads.
CVSE has also been assisting by conducting regular patrols and check stops on com-
mercial vehicles in the Hudson’s Hope area.
On November 19th, the Hudson’s Hope RCMP received a report of a disturbance in
which a male was becoming belligerent at a local business when asked by the busi-
ness owner to dawn a mask as per the Covid-19 Related Measures Act. The male
was found to have been irate with the business owner and later with 911 dispatch
when he himself called police for being instructed to wear a mask within a business.
Police contacted the individual and the issue was resolved after some discussions.
On November 26th, the Hudson’s Hope RCMP received a report of an attempted
online fraud. It was found that the complainant was unable to log into their Amazon
account and upon clicking on a pop-up window with a phone number for Amazon,
the complainant spoke with an “agent” who gained remote access to the complain-
ants’ computer. This “agent” advised that there was $9000 worth of fraudulent
charges on the account and asked that a payment of $475 be immediately made to
resolve the issue. The complainant declined to pay the fee and the “agent” who
still had remote access to the complainant’s computer became belligerent and start-
ed to swear at the complainant via the online chat window. It was confirmed that
no money was accessed by the “agent”, however all information was forwarded to
the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre. Upon police speaking with the anti-fraud depart-
ment, it was found that this has been a new online fraud attempt.
On November 27th, the Hudson’s Hope RCMP conducted a commercial truck check-
stop along Canyon Dr. Police stopped and checked several commercial trucks with
minor violations found.
On December 13th, the Hudson’s Hope RCMP received a report of a hazardous situa-
tion along Hwy 29 whereas a complainant reported that he had stopped behind a

commercial tanker truck that was transporting a hazardous material that contained
a sour gas mixture of crude oil. The complainant stated that he could smell an over
abundance of what was described as a “sour gas” odor and believed that the truck
was either overloaded or had faulty valves. Police located the truck and upon an
inspection, the truck was found to be in legal limits for load capacity, however due
to the amount of fume emissions coming from the cargo, CVSE was contacted, who
later conducted an inspection of the trailers valves.
On December 15th, the Hudson’s Hope RCMP received a driving complaint in which
a black SUV was observed passing a semi truck in the school zone along Beattie Dr.
Due to no vehicle descriptors provided, the vehicle was not located but police did
conduct a patrol of the school zone this day and several violation tickets were
issued to drivers of both personal and commercial vehicles for speeding in the
school zone.
With the 12 Days of Christmas Giving toy drive coming to an end, the Hudson’s
Hope RCMP would like to thank the community of Hudson’s Hope, those that do-
nated items to the cause, and the associated community partners that assisted;
DOHH, FOHH, and the HH Elementary School, for their efforts in making Christmas
brighter for 36 local children and their families. The idea was spearheaded by the
wife and daughter of a local RCMP member who wanted to share her toys with kids
who didn’t have any. As a result of the generous donations received, 14 families
and 36 local children will be receiving several Christmas gifts this holiday.
From everyone at the Hudson’s Hope RCMP detachment, we would like to wish the
community of Hudson’s Hope a very Merry Christmas this year.
Anyone with information regarding current or past investigations can contact the
Hudson’s Hope RCMP directly at 250-783-5241 or anonymously through Crime
Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477. Visit http://crimestoppersnebc.ca for advice on sub-

      10 Days of Goodwill, Toy Drive, Baking Hampers, and letter –
      Our students had a lot of fun baking, bringing in food, goods,
      and toys, and writing letters of recognition/thanks. December has
      been an uplifting month at our school. It has been very encouraging to see
      our Goodwill and Toy Drive containers being filled every day, watching stu-
      dents bake treats for hampers, and listening to students proudly share their
      beautiful letters. What a fantastic community we live in.

Shellie Howard, Program Librarian
Hi everyone, I hope you are all doing well. Things haven’t changed much here at the library, we are
still unable to do in person clubs. Now, with that being said, I have come up with a few ideas for
grab and go book/craft bags for all clubs. We are open in the New Year starting January 5th, so I
will need at least two weeks to get everything prepared and ready to go. So feel free to call or pop
down the week starting January 19th. It will be fun for all age groups and a way to do some crafting
and reading by yourself or with your parents. We have a lot of new books out and more coming in
every month. Stop in and check what is new and available just for you!!! We have new literacy toys
and games and you can also take out our literacy bins. We still quarantine everything for your pro-
tection, as well as ours. You can take out build-a-story cards, hot dots, and some activity games for
your kids. Please stay, safe and healthy and we will see you all in the New Year!!!

Nancy Smith, ILL Librarian & Bookkeeper
Interlibrary Loans: ILLs may be requested through the catalogue database via your patron ac-
count, alternatively you can call or email your request. If you cannot find the title that you are look-
ing for on our catalogue database, we have access to another database that we can place a request
for you. Please contact our staff for a tutorial, to sign up for your own library card, or to simply
place a hold.

                                 up by the TV producer Shonda Rhimes (Grey’s anatomy, Private
                                 Practice, Scandal) and I’m just giddy waiting for Christmas because
                                 the series releases on Netflix on December 25th! I absolutely love
                                 the spin she has taken with the series and as soon as I heard
                                 (Summer 2019) that she bought the rights to the movie, I devoured
                                 the whole series on Overdrive as fast as I could get my hands on it!
                                 I will be purchasing the TV Tie-In versions as they are released but
                                 if you want to tear through them as I did, they are available on
                                 Overdrive or through Interlibrary Loan. Warning, yes they were
                                 released in pocket paperback, so they are a little more on the ro-
                                 mance side but I love historical fiction so I loved them.

                                   “Simon gave her a startled look. ‘I don't believe I have ever been
                           condescended to by a woman before.’ She shrugged. ‘It was probably past
                                                                                               time.”

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of
    Raymond Roger Russell Belanger on December 19th, 2020
                       in Fort St. John hospital.
  Raymond was born in Vancouver, BC on November 1st, 1953.
 Ray is predeceased by his parents George Gerald and Amilia Eu-
genie Belanger. He is survived by his sister June Belanger Nezies of
 Toronto, Ontario and special friends Dave and Linda Brough and
                              Cassandra.
Ray was a very good cook in his younger years and worked for CN
 Rail as a cook’s helper. His favorite thing to do was to read and if
you drove by his place you would see him sitting in his chair with a
book and his kitty, Puskins. Ray lived his like the way he wanted and
                he was always willing to help if he could.
We would also like to thank Ed Forester and Shawn Shepherd for their
                       help when Ray was so sick.
