City looking to increase water, sewer rates CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

The City of Grand Forks is looking to amend its water and sewer regulations and rates bylaw for the 2012 to 2016 adopted five-year plan.

The adoption would reflect a 4.6 per cent increase in user fee collection for water rates, and a 4.8 per cent increase in user fee collection for sewer rates.

The residential fixed and capital charges would remain the same for both water and sewer rates as previously charged in 2010 and 2011. “They’re just planning ahead and it may even change again next year but you always have to have that five-

year vision and then modify it within the context of each year’s budget,� explained Coun. Gary Smith. “It’s looked at every year to address the costs of operations and maintenance.�

Cecile Arnott, the city’s chief financial officer, stated the changes are made because there was a need to increase revenue in 2012. “The bylaw doesn’t necessarily change each year but every time there’s a need to change the rate, it will change,� she said. “It’s looked at each year.�

The bylaw to amend the water bylaw noted, “The residential connection charge reflects the city’s practice of averaging these residential connection charges to avoid residents being treated differently simply because they

happen to construct a home on the opposite side of the roadway from where the waterline happens to be located.

The connection charges have been averaged to ensure our residents are paying the same no matter what side of the street they live on.�

All other provisions and rates in the bylaw remain the same. “You’ll see that two of the rates (fixed and capital) stayed the same and only one (user fee) has increased,�

Arnott explained. “It says it will increase by more than 4.6 per cent but that’s to generate the 4.6 per cent revenue increase because council did not want to increase all three components of the rate, just the variable one.�

City looking to raise water, sewer rates Continued from page 1

User water rates, which would be effective from July 2012, should the bylaw pass final reading, would vary from a family home to commercial office. A metered multi-family apartment would see a fixed and capital charge of $20.50 per unit bi-monthly (every two months), a $7 per account bi-monthly customer charge, and 0.113 cents per cubic metre.

Commercial office properties, where water use is restricted to staff washrooms, would be charged $18.50 per account (per metre) on a bi-monthly basis, including the fixed and capital charge. The per account bi-monthly charge will be $7 with a 0.113 cents charge per cubic metre.

Commercial laundry and car wash properties would be charged $51 per account, per metre on a bi-monthly basis for fixed and capital charges, $7 per account on a bi-monthly basis for customer charge and 0.124 per cubic metre.

These rates would also apply for large industrial properties, hotels, restaurants, malls, institutions, schools, recreation facilities and irrigation systems.

Buildings not connected to the water system, on lots where service is available, would be charged $13.50 per account, per metre on a bi-monthly basis for fixed and capital charges, $7 per account bi-monthly customer charge and $0.124 per cubic metre.

Residential properties that aren’t metered would be charged $37.25 per unit for fixed and capital charges on a bi-monthly basis, with a $7 bimonthly customer charge and $16.40 bi-monthly variable water charges for non-metered per residence.

The five-year plan for sewer regulations and rates reflects a 4.8 per cent increase in user fee collection for sewer rates. The residential fixed and capital charges would remain the same as those charged in 2010 and 2011.

A metered multi-family apartment would see $31.25 for bi-monthly fixed and capital charges, while commercial office properties will see a bimonthly charge and capital charge of $34.25.

Large industrial properties, commercial laundry, car wash, hotels, restaurants, institutions and schools would be charged $56.25, where as buildings not connected to a sewer system on lots where service is available would be charged $31.25.

All user classes would pay a $10.50 bi-monthly customer charge and $0.40 for sewer rates charges per 1/3 cubic metre of metered water.

Residential properties not metered would be charged a bi-monthly fixed and capital charge of $40, a customer charge of $10.50 and a bi-monthly variable sewer charge for homes non-metered of $15.60.

Arnott pointed out the changes would be reflected in the next billing period.

“It’s not pro-rating back to January 1, but will be effective in the next period,” she said. “The bill that comes out at the end of July will show the effective increase.”

The bylaws would have to pass final reading to take effect.

The City of Greenwood has been given an extension (until July 13) to decide on whether or not it takes over responsibility for Providence (Marshall) Lake Dam. The provincial government previously told Greenwood that they had to decide by the end of June.

“The province extended the deadline to July 13, and agreed to provide $50,000 towards upgrading or decommissioning,” explained Christopher Stevenson, a former Greenwood city councilor and leader of a group aiming to preserve the lake. “They’ve consistently said that they estimated a $70,000 cost to decommission.

We’re pushing now for (the government) to complete the maintenance and bring the dam up to dam safety standards.”

Stevenson, who recently created an online group called the Marshall Lake Stewardship Group, to bring awareness to the issue, noted the province is also pushing costs to the city.

“They’re effectively passing costs on to us costs for maintenance and repairs that they have not done, and are required to do, and we are expected to cover the costs of their neglect,” he said.

“Give us a dam that meets safety standards.”

Brennan Clarke, public affairs officer for Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resources, noted that the City of Greenwood was given a year to determine the feasibility of (the city) assuming responsibility for the dam in January 2011.

“The Providence Dam is classified as a highconsequence dam that would cause substantial economic and environmental damage and, potentially, loss of life in the event of a failure,” Clarke stated. “Providence Dam does not currently meet Provincial Dam Safety Regulations or Canadian Dam Association Standards. A dam safety review of Providence Dam, stemming from the Deputy Solicitor General’s report that followed the 2010 Testalinden Dam failure, identified a number of management concerns.”

The inspection occurred after the Testalinden dam incident near Oliver, B.C. in June 2010. The incident resulted in a debris and mud torrent that damaged a number of homes and agricultural areas.

Clarke pointed out that while the province has agreed to the extension, should it receive no response by July 13, the province will start plans to de-activate the dam.

Christopher Stevenson (right) held a gathering at Marshall Lake on Monday night (July 2).

❚ LABOUR

Teachers ratify deal but not happy with negotiations KARL YU Gazette Editor

While a new contract between teachers and the province was ratified late last week, there still seems to be acrimony between the B.C. Teachers’ Federation (BCTF) and the government.

In the ratification vote, which took place between June 27 and 29, 75 per cent voted in favour of the agreement but only 52 per cent of BCTF membership turned out to vote.

“I don’t know if we’re going to be able do much better given current political climate,” said BCTF local president Norm Sabourin. “Some people would say this is a negotiated settlement, I would say that it is one that was borne out of intimidation and it wasn’t true, free collective bargaining.”

Sabourin said that had the BCTF not agreed with the deal, one would’ve been imposed by the government, which was part of Education Minister George Abbott’s Bill 22 legislation introduced by back in March.

The BCTF has said that it will fight the constitutionality of Bill 22 in court.

“They (the B.C. Liberals) threatened to impose a legislated contract this summer. So within Bill 22 there was a list of strips in our language to seniority, posting and filling, evaluation, dismissal, professional development, professional growth plans, all these issues,” Sabourin explained.

“There was going to be ‘stripping’ language out of our collective agreement and it would’ve been very damaging to the union.”

Sabourin said that there were some elements of the agreement he liked – concessions and

stripped language off the table and improvement to benefits – but the fact that class size and composition weren’t addressed was a concern.

“There’s a huge issue that class size and composition has not been dealt with again and hopefully our court challenge again over the Bills 27 and 28 Supreme Court ruling (in April 2011), goes through and the government is forced to deal with what (it) did illegally in 2002 by stripping that (size and composition) language out of our agreement,” he explained.

“Class size and composition is the one item that is most near and dear to teachers’ hearts and it is the one that is always ignored by the government.”

The B.C. Liberal government has maintained a net-zero wage increase stance throughout many labour negotiations (not just with teachers) and Sabourin said that it wasn’t good.

“Effectively, it is a cut in overall spending power, a cut of salary if you look at inflation,” said Sabourin. “So no salary (increase) means a decrease overall.”

“By getting no salary increase for two years, we were already No. 8 (amongst) provinces in terms of average salaries for teachers and now we’re going to fall even farther behind because the other provinces are getting increases, we’re not. I’m very frustrated that there’s no respect for us when (the government) keeps talking about the fact that they need to pay their senior managers a fair market price to get the best people in, they don’t seem to have that same feeling about teachers.”

The deal is retroactive to 2011 and runs until June 30 of next year.

❚ Our View

What about the children?

The dispute between the Province of B.C. and the B.C. Teachers’ Federation (BCTF) is over for the time being and the deal was ratified this past weekend with 75 per cent of teachers voting in favour.

But teachers don’t seem to be happy about the deal. While the BCTF ratified, it also filed a notice of a civil claim with the B.C. Supreme Court regarding Bill 22 (The Education Improvement Act), asserting that the B.C. government violated the teachers’ right to free collective bargaining amongst other things.

According to the BCTF, only 52 per cent of the membership took part in the vote and according to union officials, while there were improved benefits, the issue of class size and composition – a huge point of contention for the teachers – was not addressed.

According to a spokesperson from the Ministry of Education, while there were some discussions related to the manner and consequence of class size and composition, the main focus of bargaining related to class size and composition will begin with the next round of collective bargaining, approximately eight months from now.

A collective bargaining process is about compromise and both sides usually don’t get everything they are respectively seeking but the fact that class size and composition was not addressed is concerning.

After all, aren’t children and students ultimately what education is about?

There have been numerous reports of overcrowded classes in many areas of the province and even though the ministry says the issue will be addressed, another full school year will pass with the issue unresolved.

The deal is set to expire June 30, 2013, with negotiations set to take place in March as mentioned, and hopefully the issue will be dealt with properly.

Otherwise, this whole saga could begin again and the children will be the ones that ultimately suffer.

❚ FOR THE RECORD In an editorial in last week’s issue, “More pesticide, used oil collection needed,” it was stated that Coun. Gary Smith was given a go-ahead from the government for pesticide pick up but that is not the case.

The silver lining in the rain clouds Summer has begun, but you wouldn’t know it by all the rain we’ve been getting in Grand Forks.

Mind you, it’s really been a mixed bag of rain, thunder and some sun when you think about it.

Even though I don’t have any official information, I think it’s a safe bet that people aren’t satisfied with the weather the area has been receiving – just a guess though.

I don’t want to see it rain all summer and I certainly don’t want to see an excess of the thunderstorms and torrential rain we’ve been having periodically but a few instances aren’t bad however and a little rain in the summer months isn’t bad.

Given the wildfires in the state of Colorado and the devastation, the rain that has been coming down has been

reducing wildfire risk.

According to the B.C. Wildfire Management Branch’s website, the danger rating for the Grand Forks area and the Southeast Fire Centre is very low – people may not be fond of the rain but they probably aren’t fond of wildfires either.

The high amount of precipitation is also leading to some lush vegetation in the area, as peoples’ lawns are nice and green right now.

And for those longing for the sun, take heart, as recent history shows that a sun-filled summer could still be on the way.

The last two springs and early summers have seen quite a bit of rain but as the summer has progressed, so has the amount of sunshine.

According to the Weather Network, over the last 30 years, there has been an average rainfall of 58 millimetres (mm) in the month of June in Grand Forks and that has decreased to 41 mm in July and 36 mm in August.

Also, over the past 30 years there has only been an average of one day in the months of July and August where the rainfall exceeded 10 mm.

I like to think of rain in the same way I think of alcohol consumption. Everything in moderation. Having a summer with all rain wouldn’t be good but having a summer with all sun would be detrimental as well.

LETTERS ❚ RECREATION

Centre closed for too long Editor: So I went to the gym yesterday, but of course it was closed on Canada Day. When people are home and they could really use a nice soak in the hot tub, or a few laps, or a little time in the sauna, it has to be closed.

Like when they set the summer schedule, it only works if you open the pool in the afternoon when nobody can use it because of course, they are all at work or outside in their gardens, or outdoors enjoying the sunshine.

Closing it on weekends is a real bonus too because, of course, who would want to go to a pool on one of their days off? I know that it looks good if you narrow the times it is open, that way you can say, “More people are coming.” Of course if that is the only time it is open, what other time can they come?

It looks good on paper and the more often you change the schedule, the less anyone can set up a routine.

It also works great for getting people to quit working at the aquatic centre, because no schedule means no seniority, and no benefits.

Oh how I love to see chaosstyled management.

Keep the people guessing about the next changes and nobody can question the success of the management style.

It’s too bad someone hasn’t figured out that a public facility is about service to the people, not profit margins and control.

Keep up the good work boss.

❚ HEALTH CARE

Dental help from doc Editor: I write to say kudos to Boundary Hospital in Grand Forks for seeing me with a dental problem.

Unfortunately, I could not reach my dentist, so I went to see if I could get help from the hospital and I did. They were so courteous and helpful, I was very impressed.

I was seen in a prompt manner by a very nice young doctor and got the prescribed medications to tide me over till I could see the dentist. On a long weekend, it is great to know that one can always go to the hospital, even with a dental problem.

My dentist did reach me eventually and told me that what had been done by the doctor was exactly what would have been done if I had seen her. I am very grateful for this attention and I praise the staff for their efficiency and kindness.

Liz Martin, Grand Forks

❚ PETROLEUM

The big oil hustle Editor: Do you ever wonder why the big oil companies are ripping us off and making millions of dollars every quarter?

Do you question why a couple of years ago when a barrel of oil was $150 and the price at the pump was $1.50 per litre; now at about $80 per barrel we are paying $1.30 or more per litre. Simple math suggests the price per litre should be about 75-80¢ per litre.

Well I have the answer to these questions. We all are aware of the close relationship between big oil and big government, they look after each other and we pay the price of this incestuous relationship.

Here in Grand Forks we have few options as to getting around. Shopping, medical appointments in town or in Trail and the myriad of other chores we do every day, in most cases require a vehicle – try carrying five bags of groceries home on your bike, or walking to Trail.

This month, the Liberal government will add another cent to the price per litre in a thinlydisguised green fee (more like another tax grab).

Every dollar we must spend on fuel means we have less of those dollars for food, entertainment and our children’s need. The Conservative rulers in Ottawa have given big oil huge subsidies and in relation to others, they pay a relatively small percentage of their obscene profits in taxes.

So why do big oil companies overcharge us and make billions of dollars in profit?

Simply because they can, they have us over a barrel.

David Janzen, Grand Forks

❚ COLUMN ❚ FORESTRY

Keeping the “jewel” Editor: The formation of the West Boundary Community Forest Association (WBCFA) and application for a Community Forest (CF) agreement is of concern. Maps distributed at pubic meetings show that the area offered for the CF by the Ministry of Lands, Forests, and Natural Resources includes land surrounding and in view of Jewel Lake.

Jewel Lake has supported and continues to support considerable wildlife.

The lake is stocked with Eastern Brook and Rainbow Trout providing winter and summer fishing. Almost certainly, the water quality and habitat of a number of species will be negatively influenced by forest practices, which touch on the Jewel Lake watershed.

Jewel Lake currently supports significant recreational, commercial, and residential values. The Jewel Lake Resort, provincial campground and beach are enjoyed by Boundary residents and tourists.

The area’s trail system supports mountain biking, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing. Logging conducted in view of these recreational facilities is likely to have a negative impact. The Jewel Lake Environmental Protection Society (JLEPS), operating in association with the BC Lake Stewardship Society (BCLSS) and other residents, has worked hard over the years to ensure that the many values of Jewel Lake are sustained and protected.

Given that the vision of the BC Community Forest Association states a commitment to “culturally, ecologically, and economically sustainable forestry” these two organizations potentially share a number of goals. In fact, CFs are established in trust that they will work with the local community to this end.

There is potential in the resolution of land-use issues for citizens to be pitted against citizens and/or organizations against organizations. It is my hope that by establishing shared values and goals and relying on independent and expert advice, appropriate and skilled forest management and environmental protection will result in the West Boundary area.

A no go for the Providence Lake Dam The Marshall Lake/ Providence Dam has been receiving much attention in the press lately.

Managed by the MinIRENE PEREPOLKIN istry of Environment, plans are in place to: 1. Let local government take over the liability and maintenance, 2. Let a private group take over the maintenance and liability or 3. Decommission the dam.

This will bring Marshall Lake back to its original size, not completely drain it. It will still be stocked with trout after eradication of the sun fish.

This dam was put in place on the existing lake for the use of the Phoenix mine during it’s operation. Once the mine closed, this dam no longer had a use but was never decommissioned.

The cost to a potential stakeholder could range from $135,000 to $400,000 plus more, as the base is believed to be wood and soil and has a potential to fail.

Once that is completed to the standard, then there would be an annual maintenance, inspection and liability cost to cover. In it’s present condition the dam is classified as high risk. There is constant seepage taking place, the dam is surrounded by private owners, except for a portion where a forestry camp exists.

This lake and dam is located in RDKB Area D and as area director, I am not willing to take on that cost.

No one is being pressured into taking on the project (Greenwood, as some of the publicity has stated).

Presently, a private group is showing interest but time is running out on a decision. *** Watch for the upcoming workshop on keeping sheep and goats coming to Grand Forks in October.

This is a similar workshop to the one we held last year on fowl. *** Even though the weather has been inclement, this has not put a stop to the weeds growing – it looks like it will be a bumper crop this year.

Taking part in one of the four assistance programs can assist homeowners in controlling their property.

These include: 1. Pull, double bag and take it to landfill informing the attendant of contents to take free of charge, 2. Take advantage of loan equipment, including backpacks, skid mount and three point hitch sprayers, 3. Contact the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) to treat up to 2.02 hectares (five acres) at no charge or 4. Take advantage of a 50 per cent cost share program over 2.02 hectares (five acres).

The public has suggested that sheep or goats put to graze will eliminate the problem. It is not in their nature to select specific weeds to eat, they must first be trained to eat them.

Putting several sheep and goats has shown that they will eat the grass and other vegetation before they will go to the hoary alyssum.

Boundary Aboriginal Education Enhancement Agreement extended CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

School District 51 (SD51), the provincial government and local aboriginal leaders renewed the Boundary Aboriginal Education Enhancement Agreement on June 27 at Gallery 2, after five years of positive results.

Originally signed and created in 2006, the success in the district is seen in the numbers of students succeeding in schools.

There was an increase in aboriginal graduation rates, from 69 per cent in the 2005-2006 school year to 86.7 per cent in 2010-2011.

Roughly 25 per cent of Boundary students claim aboriginal ancestry.

“The province is committed to helping aboriginal students succeed,” said Boundary-Similkameen MLA John Slater. “I’ve been to a couple of these ceremonies and it’s important for communities to keep going. We want to make sure our achievements keep on continuing.”

Slater noted that though aboriginal students are achieving greater success, there is still work to do.

“The signatories that are signing this agreement are committed to working together in a shared decision, making a model focused on the education of students in the district,” he said.

Ted Cadwallader, the Enhancement Agreement co-ordinator with the Aboriginal Education Department of the Ministry of Education, agreed.

“We have to find ways to ensure that all of our students have an awareness of aboriginal culture and language and history as they go through with their education,” he said.

The renewed agreement represents an ongoing commitment between the SD51, local aboriginal communities and the Ministry of Education.

The agreement emphasizes the balance between physical and spiritual needs for students, based off the concept of the medicine wheel.

“Through a continuing collaborative partnership between all parties we are committed to improving educational

achievement for all aboriginal students,” said Maxine Ruzicka, the school board’s director for instruction. “We proudly acknowledge this collective relationship of shared responsibility and decision making to set goals to meet the educational needs of aboriginal students.”

The agreement was created with extensive community consultation from the Boundary Métis Community Association and Boundary All Nations Aboriginal Council (BANAC).

The historical agreement was signed by Danny Williamson of the Boundary Métis Association, Joan Holmes, president of the BANAC, Terry Jackson of the Boundary Métis Association, Cadwallader of the Ministry of Education, SD51 Board Chair Teresa Rezansoff, SD51 Trustee Vicki Gee, SD51 Superintendent Michael Strukoff, Ruzicka, Slater, Boundary Family and Individual Services Society Aboriginal Family Support Worker Erika Schoenfeld, Grand Forks Secondary School Aboriginal Family Support Worker Victoria Runge, teachers Wanda Hecht and Marilyn Hanson and SD51 Administra-

tor Jennifer Turner.

SD51 receives roughly $1,000 per aboriginal student a year from the provincial government but directs the funds to achieving goals within the Aboriginal Enhancement Agreement.

SD51 is one of 53 school districts in the province with an Aboriginal enhancement agreement.

Since the original agreement, 11 have signed a second five-year agreement and four have signed a third.

Boys mentoring project a success in the Boundary The project developed social skills and involved over 60 young boys in healthy activities over a 16-week period

The Helping Boys Become Healthy Men mentoring project has concluded for the summer and involved boys in School District 51.

Created through a community action initiatives grant from the province, it focused on mentoring projects for young boys, from ages seven to 12, in Grand Forks, Greenwood and Rock Creek.

Mark Perry, one of the co-ordinators working with the Boundary Family and Individual Services Society (BFISS), explained that the project involved initiatives with engaging activities that have a positive effect on boys.

“The local project supported boys in three ways: one) using adult-child relationships to strengthen attachment and resilience; two) using a wrap-around case management model that uses broader communications; three) remove barriers to activities to increase social inclusion, healthy activity and provide male role-models,” he said. “Some of these barriers may have been financial, social or logistical. Especially with the West Boundary, transportation is a big issue.”

Participants of the program came from Beaverdell, Bridesville and Midway.

“The idea was to create a proactive approach to the issues that young men face,” Perry said. “It has been noted that men struggling with mental health or substance abuse problems make up a substantial portion of the clients served by the sponsors or organizations in this proposal. Many of these men failed as boys to receive the mentorship or role models they needed to become healthy adults.”

Perry noted that the program engaged the boys by providing male mentors who engaged them in activities that were inclusive, challenging, of interest to them and built skills.

Activities included playing sports like dodge-

ball or basketball, or building forts.

“We let the boys direct the group so there were a lot of brainstorming sessions with them,” he said. “It did make it a bit challenging because they didn’t always agree on the same things that they wanted to do. Sometimes we had to satisfy them with two activities at the same time.”

In Grand Forks, there were two boys mentoring groups located at Perley and Hutton Elementary schools, where they met every other week.

In Greenwood and Rock Creek, the groups met weekly.

“It was based off logistics and we felt that Grand Forks has a lot more services than the West Boundary does,” Perry said.

There were 18 boys participating in Perley Elementary, 15 at Hutton Elementary, 18 at Greenwood and 21 boys in Rock Creek.

“We did have to limit the numbers because there was only two co-ordinators,” Perry added.

“Our numbers at Rock Creek kept getting bigger and bigger. There’s a lot of interest with friends recruiting friends.”

The program had a total of 517 individual attendances over a 16-week period, for a total of 1, 034 hours of male-to-male interaction providing pro-social activities and learning opportunities around social skill development, communication and conflict resolution.

“That was probably one of the big things, social skills, is being development between the boys,” Perry explained. “We did see significant growth in some of the boys early on. In the beginning we would have a conflict rise quickly, but by the end of the project when there were conflicts, we would have minimal intervention or no intervention at all. They were able to resolve that conflict.”

Perry stated that fathers were also encouraged to participate when they could.

The findings of the first phase of the Kettle River Watershed Study management plan were discussed in detail with the community at the Midway Community Hall on June 18.

Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) Area C Director Grace McGregor and chair of the Stakeholder Advisory Group pointed out that this study will allow everyone to move forward with the management plan.

The plan, which is entering its second phase now that the study has been completed, will be a document that will guide decisions by different levels of government, resource managers and individuals about how to use and manage the Kettle River Watershed.

“We are really, really proud and pleased to be doing this,” she said. “However, in no way is the Kettle River Study designed to look at this person, or that person, or that person and say, ‘You will no longer be able to do this.’ The Kettle River Study was designed to show us what has been done to the Kettle, give us the information, the data, put it together, and talk to you guys because this is your plan.”

RDKB Planning Director Mark Andison added, “There have been a number of issues raised over the years in regards to water quality, riparian issues, and all sorts of things. There was a general sense that something needed to be done to start planning around the watershed.”

Presenting the findings of the study was project manager Hugh Hamilton of Summit Environmental Consultants, who were commissioned to undertake the study.

“This phase started in April 2011 and is the technical assessment that will lead into the Watershed Management Plan, though there will likely be smaller phases in between that will be considered the ‘gap filling,’” he explained. “The report looked at four parts: surface water, groundwater, water quality and aquatic life.”

The study also looked at water licences and the allocations people have to the water.

“To actually go and speak with the major water suppliers to get their records to see how much of those records they are actually using – the short answer is that they’re not using all their licences,” he said.

Hamilton pointed out that because the Kettle River is an international river, and as a result of its size and population of the watershed, there is more monitoring and information available in regards to water quality.

“In terms of measurement of flow across the river across the

Boundary, there are a fair amount of observations points,” he said.

“There are 40 British Columbia water observation quality stations across the province, with two specifically in the Boundary.”

Aquatic life in the Kettle River watershed is also determined by the conditions of the river.

“The natural conditions of the system are that the low flows in late-summer and warmer temperatures does limit fish habitat,” he added. “When there is water withdrawals, water flow and temperatures, it does affect the system.”

Hamilton noted that even though there has been a fair amount of work done from previous observations and studies, most of it has been done in the southern third of the watershed.

He also pointed out some key issues and questions that the study looked into were riparian function, riparian and fish habitat restoration, flood hazards, and the potential for constraints on economic development due to water.

“There are still some information gaps in areas outside of Grand Forks, especially concerning ground water and surface water interacFrom the tion,” he added. “Grand Forks has a lot of information pertaining to their water and local surroundings.”

COMMUNITY â?š MARIJUANA

Medicinal marijuana info session on July 25 Submitted

On Wednesday July 25, from 7 to 8:30 p.m. at the Christina Lake Community Hall, Regional District of Kootenay Boundary Area C Director Grace McGregor presents the third session of the Christina Lake Health and Wellness Public Information Series: Medical Marijuana and Human Health.

The science behind the multiple therapeutic uses of medical marijuana and its active constituents, known as cannabinoids, will be explored with an explanation of how they interact with the human body’s own endogenous cannabinoid system.

Additionally, information on legal access to medical marijuana under Health Canada’s Marijuana Medical Access Regulations, and the recent changes proposed by the Canadian federal government will be outlined.

A fascinating look at the historical uses of medical marijuana in ancient cultures, the discovery of THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) in marijuana from Dr. Mechoulam’s laboratory in 1964, and recent studies

investigating the beneficial effects of marijuana on illnesses like cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, and conditions that cause chronic pain, will be covered in the presentation.

Comparisons between medical marijuana and synthetic pharmaceutical drugs from scientific literature will also be drawn.

Does marijuana contain more potent antioxidants than vitamin C or E? Can THC from marijuana kill cancer cells? What is cannabidiol (CBD) and why does it not result in euphoria when used?

To find the answers to these questions and more, all are invited to attend this informative evening, with questions from the public welcomed and addressed after the initial presentation.

Admission is free of charge, although donations to the Grand Forks Community Food Bank will be accepted at the door.

Medical Marijuana and Human Health will be hosted by Jim Leslie, federally-licensed medical marijuana patient and president of the Lifeline Medicinal Cannabis Dispensary.

RawBC is a non-profit society promoting health through eating more living foods and has been experiencing increased growth, as people in B.C. have been realizing that there are beneficial and natural ways to increase one’s health by making some simple changes.

Given that our medical paradigm is overstretched trying to deal with the increased sickness and diseases, people are looking to make the necessary changes.

Disorders such as obesity, diabetes, arthritis, cancers, heart disorders and inflammations can all be diminished by making healthy choices.

At the stops along the Raw Tour route, Clive Langton will facilitate interactive presentations, during informal get-togethers with health-interested people in the local communities.

The objective of the get-togethers is to share our health journey, by identifying our health challenges and achievements.

It will be an enjoyable and beneficial experience for those attending.

Thank you for Shopping Local $

Christina Lake artist Joan Bartlett has had one of her bronzes selected from over 300 art submissions for inclusion in the 2012 Calgary Stampede Western Art Auction.

Bartlett’s sculpture, entitled “Spirit Cat”, was one of only six bronzes chosen for the auction this year.

She has recently switched from oil painting to sculpture, so she was delighted to have one of her pieces selected for the Stampede’s auction.

She has discovered that clay is the artistic medium she has been searching for.

“I love the 3-D aspect of it,” she explains.

Constantly striving for perfection and detail, she uses her lifetime experiences in ranching and rodeo for inspiration. “I like my pieces to tell a story and try to portray both the action and heart of the animals and people,” she says.

Cowboys, horses, wildlife and anything western dominate her subject matter. Bartlett has exhibited at the Canadian Finals Rodeo in Edmonton, Alta., the Empire 100 Western Art Show in Tucson, Ariz., the Tubac Festival of the Arts in Tubac, Ariz., as well as shows in Ritzville, Wash. and Missoula, Mont.

She is represented by the Deadwood Junction Gallery in Greenwood.

The Calgary Stampede Centennial runs from July 6 to 15 and the auction will be held during the evening of Thursday, July 12.

❚ BUSINESS

Community Futures continues to help CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

Entering its 20th year in October, Community Futures Boundary has been an integral part of Grand Forks and surrounding communities’ economic development.

Wendy McCulloch, general manager of Community Futures Boundary, explained that the not-for-profit corporation helps people find jobs, create jobs and provides start-ups or access to capital for businesses.

“We run conferences and professional developments and we have a wide range of things that we’re involved in for the betterment of the community,” she said.

Community Futures Boundary also offers skill development, provides training and aims to help make education available.

This year, the corporation has been involved in developing the Boundary Country Regional Chamber of Commerce with the support of Grand Forks Credit Union and other key stakeholders, financial and administrative support for the mobile abattoir project for the Grand Forks and Boundary Regional Agricultural Society, and organizing this year’s British Columbia Rural Summit in Grand Forks from June 7 to 9.

Future goals include another Boundary Youth

Success Program, which is aimed at youth who are at risk.

“We’ve run five programs in the past and they make a huge difference in the youths’ lives,” McCulloch said.

“They might be kids who had difficulty in school not because they’re not smart, but because school isn’t their thing. They might be creative and there are all kinds of reasons. We try to get them into training, back to school or to come to grips with who they are and where they want to go.”

Another initiative is a program aimed to help seniors and older adults find a job.

“There’s a lot of people who are older who used to want to retire who either can’t or don’t want to retire,” she said. “So the object is to find a suitable employment for them.”

McCulloch pointed out that the board is hoping to create and help develop a community centre in Grand Forks.

“One of the things we want for this community is a community centre,” she said. “It would be nice to have a facility like Christina Lake, Midway or even Greenwood where we can have a functional community hall for events.”

Community Futures Boundary will be celebrating its 20th anniversary alongside its annual business awards ceremony in October.

Regenberg, Smith enjoy contest CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

Two Grand Forks singers participated in the Kootenay’s Best Singer contest in Cranbrook on June 23.

Cecile Regenberg, who placed first in Grand Forks, enjoyed the experience.

“I didn’t get into the top five, but I had a good time,” she said. “It was different from what I expected, but everybody was really good.”

Regenberg sang two songs, Warwick Avenue from Duffy and another from the Disney movie, Mulan.

After hearing the 14 singers sing one song a piece, the judges decided on which of the singers would be ranked from first to fifth. Those top five singers would have the

opportunity to sing a second song to determine who would be champion.

Regenberg will be moving back to Denmark in July, but plans to continue to sing with the Royal Choir of Denmark.

Fellow singer Gary Smith also felt the competition went well.

“It was awesome – I would have not wanted to be a judge for anything because the talent was really good,” he chuckled. “It would’ve been a tough decision to make so I applaud them for that.”

Smith isn’t sure if he’ll participate next year but he enjoyed the experience.

Contest creator and producer Vern Gorham noted that planning stages are already underway for next year, with Grand Forks booked

for Aug. 28.

“The cool thing about the upcoming Grand Forks Best Singer is that they will be invited to sing the national anthems to open the Grand Forks International (GFI) at the welcoming ceremonies currently scheduled for Aug. 30,” he explained. “I am very excited about that. The Grand Forks Best Singer contest is basically scheduled for the day before the GFI starts!”

Gorham noted that because next year’s contest occurs prior to the baseball tournament, it’s also a chance to showcase talent in Grand Forks.

“Now that the first year go around is done, I am hoping the second year will be much easier and a little less time consuming, and provide a

better event,” he concluded.

“I have learned a lot of things along the way, and made changes that I think has improved things.”

Alongside Regenberg and Smith, participants from the West Kootenays included Kenny Harris and Jessica Hyson from Castlegar, Colin Lindgren and Katie Loughlin of Trail, and Tessa Van Der Holt and Marleah Lander of Nelson. Also competing was Devin Fikis of Kimberley, who at 14 years old was the youngest singer in the contest.

Trail, Castlegar, Nelson and the rest of the West Kootenays will have contests in the fall season following Grand Forks.

Cranbrook’s Trena Spears won the contest.

BC Games a catalyst for sport tourism BLACK PRESS Submitted

Since 1978, the BC Winter and BC Summer Games have been hosted in 38 different communities around the province.

The BC Games have become part of the historical record of communities and for many, an honour and experience that has inspired them to build a vibrant sport tourism industry.

Long before sport tourism was identified as an important part of the tourism industry, the BC Winter and Summer Games were demonstrating the valuable impact of sport events. Besides the obvious economic benefits ($1.8 million to $2.6 million), the BC Games bring a community together, train leaders, and create exposure and recognition opportunities.

Sport tourism is growing at a consistently strong rate, despite the trends that have shown a declining tourism industry in recent years. According to the Canadian Sport Tourism Alliance, spending associated with sport tourism in Canada reached $3.6 billion in 2010, an 8.8 per cent increase in two years. This continues sport tourism’s trend of being one of the fastest growing industry segments within Canada’s tourism industry.

The number of B.C. communities becoming active in sport tourism continues to grow. The BC Games Society and Tourism BC co-manage the HostingBC.ca website, which provides a sport hosting portfolio for B.C. sport hosting destinations, including an inventory of sport facilities, sport hosting experience, photo galleries, maps, technical venue information, support services, and key contacts.

“Strategically, hosting sport events can bring economic value, social benefits and civic pride to a community. Some of these benefits occur at the time of the event, and others are legacies that return value to the community over many years,” said Laura Plant, manager of Community Partnerships with Tourism BC, a division of the Ministry of Jobs, Tourism and Innovation.

❚ SPECIAL OLYMPICS

A good year for Grand Forks Special Olympics Submitted

Local adult athletes for the Grand Forks Special Olympics had a successful year with our Club Fit, floor hockey, swimming, bowling, bocce and T-ball programs.

The highlights of the year were: • Four athletes completing our Club Fit program participated in at least one

The StrongStart Early Learning program offers family-friendly environments for children not yet eligible for Kindergarten and their parents/care providers in school-based, high quality early learning centres StrongStar offers fun and creative activities such as: *Story time, music and singing *Healthy snacks *Access to books, puzzles and art materials *movement and large muscle play activities *Play areas that promote creativity and exploration for both individual and group play

The City of Kamloops hosted the very first BC Winter Games in 1979, which was a defining moment for the community. Up to that point, Kamloops had struggled with a clear identity and the BC Games brought the community together in a way that was a catalyst for Kamloops to become “Canada’s Tournament Capital” and a leader in sport tourism initiatives.

“Hosting the BC Winter Games really started Kamloops’ interest in sport tourism. The community was engaged and inspired and we have seen that continue through the countless events we have hosted since,” said Sean Smith, Kamloops’ Tournament Capital co-ordinator. “Another important benefit for the community is the volunteer skills that are developed with individuals making a greater and greater difference with every event.”

The 2012 BC Summer Games will take place in Surrey, July 19 to 22. Tourism Surrey and the City of Surrey recently developed and implemented a new sport tourism strategy with the purpose of attracting sport events and increase visitation to Surrey. The strategy includes plans for facility upgrades, as well as support for sport event organizers bringing events to the city.

“To advance Surrey’s Sport Tourism Strategy, Sport Surrey, a partnership between the City of Surrey and Tourism Surrey, was created to increase sport tourism, recognizing the importance of generating economic benefits and contributing to sport development,” said Coun. Linda Hepner, chair of the city’s Parks, Recreation & Sport Tourism Committee.

“Hosting the BC Summer Games in 2012 will allow Surrey to showcase our award-winning facilities and our ability to host major sporting events.”

Athletes, coaches, officials, and volunteers at the BC Summer Games will be treated to warm hospitality, tremendous facilities, and a strong sense of pride from the City of Surrey.

The games will most certainly be a catalyst for Surrey and future host communities to continue to capitalize on sport tourism and host outstanding sport events.

BCSS’ Durban prepping for BC Summer Games

CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

Boundary Central Secondary School Grade 8 student Kari Durban is excited to be participating in this year’s BC Summer Games with her fellow basketball teammates.

Competing against 25 other girls in the initial tryout, Durban was able to make the second cut where there were 14 other girls remaining.

In the end, Durban noted that 12 girls made the team.

“The tryouts went well even though I didn’t think I would get in because some of the other girls were really good,” she said. “The 12 girls on the team are from Greenwood to Sparwood.”

The last practice for the West Kootenay girls was on May 20, but there will be two camps leading up to the BC Summer Games at the end of July.

“We’ll be going to Gonzaga for the July 1 weekend, and there’s an-

other camp from July 10 to 13 too,” she said. “Last month the Kootenay Lakers team went to Langley for the provincials.”

Her team played four games and won one out of four.

“This has been an awesome experience and I can hardly wait for the BC Summer Games!” she added.

What Durban enjoys best about basketball is the team environment and the new friends she is able to make.

“The girls on my team are crazy!

They are so much fun to be around,” she said, adding that basketball feels more involved. “In soccer you have to pass the ball and concentrate on shooting but with basketball it (feels) more like a team sport because you have to work together.”

Last year, Durban was able to travel to Castlegar and the United States to play basketball.

The BC Summer Games will be held in Surrey, B.C. this year, between July 9 and 22.

Christina Lake Golf Club (GC) at Christina Lake is hosting the most talented female golfers in the province for the 2012 British Columbia Golf Women’s Amateur and Mid-Amateur Championships.

The tournament began yesterday (July 3).

Located on the scenic Kettle River, Christina Lake GC (Par 72, 6,189 yards) has the Monashee and Selkirk mountains providing a gorgeous backdrop for the players who are competing to lift the Flumerfelt Cup as amateur champion.

Coming off a double title at the 2011 championship, Christina Proteau of Port Alberni, B.C. looks to defend her impressive victory.

A perennial challenger looking to steal the show at Christina Lake GC will be 2010 amateur champion Christine Wong of Richmond, B.C., who played impressive golf for the San Diego State University Aztecs during her 2011-2012 campaign.

Other notable favourites for the amateur title will be 2012 CN Canadian Women’s Tour winner Jisoo Keel of Coquitlam, B.C., 2011 third-place finisher Anica Yoo of Port Coquitlam, B.C., 2012 USGA Girls’ Junior qualifier Naomi Ko of Victoria, B.C. and Team Canada member Taylor Kim of Surrey, B.C. In the mid-amateur championship, Proteau will have her work cut out for her if she wants to keep Shelly Stouffer of Nanoose Bay, B.C. out of the champion’s circle.

Stouffer finished third in the 2011 champion-

ship and will look to repeat in 2012 with a stellar performance.

Other mid-amateur championship leaderboard favourites are Victoria’s Alison Quinlan and Vancouver, B.C.’s Phyllis Laschuk, both of whom have extensive golfing resumes and are more than capable of an excellent championship.

The format for the women’s amateur includes both gross and net competition.

The net competition is 54-holes; gross is 72-holes (cut after 36 holes). The mid-amateur is a 54-hole gross stroke play competition with no cut. The Master-40 Division is for players aged 40 and older as of the first day of the competition.

Zone and club team competitions are also held concurrently, with the first and second round of the championship. The zone team gross and net competition uses the combined 36-hole gross and net scores for each zone team member.

The zone team consists of players who are chosen by each zone in advance of the provincial championship.

Two woman club teams are selected after the second round by taking the two players with the lowest gross score from each club with two or more competitors and the two players with the lowest net score from each club with two or more competitors.

The top-three competitors from the British Columbia Women’s Amateur Championship will also be selected to represent British Columbia at the Royale Cup Canadian Women’s Amateur Championship to be held July 24 to 27 at Lethbridge Country Club in Lethbridge, Alta.

❚ SOCCER

Youth soccer on hiatus until fall season CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

Boundary Youth Soccer Association has wrapped up for the summer with a spring tourney held last weekend in Midway.

The tournament saw over 300 youth playing soccer matches throughout the day.

Jeff Olsen, president of the Boundary Youth Soccer Association, said, “The last league game (was) on (June 17), but the spring tournament in Midway (was) exciting.”

Along with regular soccer practices and matches, this season introduced a new program called Kicks for Kids for twoand three-year-olds.

“That program is going very well and we have a pretty good following with more people coming,” said Olsen. “We’re going to run that through in the fall as well for the kids.”

The object of Kicks for Kids is to give young children a chance to play some soccer and soccer-like games on the field with the right equipment and a coach.

The drop-in program is free.

According to the association’s website, “It is an introduction to the game that will hopefully foster a life-long love for soccer and being involved in sports.”

Olsen noted that the soccer season is put on hiatus during the summer months because everybody is busy.

However, youth will be able to attend a one-week soccer camp with Soccer Quest from July 16 to 20 during the summer break.

Soccer Quest is B.C. Interior’s largest camp provider and partners with the Vancouver Whitecaps FC of Major League

Mike Menzies and his Boundary Youth Soccer Association team, the Jets.

Soccer to create opportunities for youth.

The camp is for youth six to 18 years old, with the option for a full-day or half-day camp.

“It’s a pretty fair price, roughly $70 to $80, because we can offer a substantial rebate to anyone who signs up,” he added.

“We worked a deal with Soccer Quest and with our sponsors and came up with some extra money.”

To register, Olsen said interested soccer players should go to soccerquest.ca.

“Thank you to Telus once again for being a generous supporter and to everyone else who has helped us,” concluded Olsen. “It’s been a very successful season so far and I’m looking forward to our tournament in the fall.”

OBITUARIES

The Apostle Thomas, a doubter or a twin?

In the Christian calendar, yesterday (July 3) was the feast day of St. Thomas, one of Jesus’ Twelve Apostles.

SIMON He is often known SHENSTONE as “Doubting Thomas” because of his refusal to believe that Jesus had risen from the dead unless he touched the wounds left by the nails and put his hand in the spear wound in his side.

A week after Jesus’ first appearance to his disciples, Thomas was given the opportunity to do just that (John 20:24-29).

Thomas’ nickname was Didymus, which means twin, giving support to some early Christian legends that Didymus Judas Thomas was Jesus’ twin brother.

Ancient tradition also has Thomas, in the days of the early church, traveling to India to spread the gospel.

The Christians of Malabar claim that it was Thomas who evangelized them. He is also known as the patron saint of architects, for legend has it that while in India he helped build a palace for a king.

As the story goes, Thomas was killed by a

Notice of Passing FRANCES GERTRUDE (BRYAN) RADFORD March 10, 1935- June 2, 2012 Born in Penticton, BC, Frances was the only daughter of Alice and Hugh Bryan, and younger sister to her brothers, Douglas and twins, David and Robert Bryan. Her early years were spent in OK Falls, BC, where she had many happy memories, and it was a place she always loved dearly. In 1947 the family moved to Osoyoos, BC where she lived until moving to Greenwood, BC, to work for BC Tel as a telephone operator for the next 5 1/2 years. She met her future husband, Brian Radford in Greenwood, and they married on August 29, 1958, and soon she was happy to devote herself to her growing family; her children were her greatest passion. In coming years they moved to Lac la Hache and Grand Forks, BC for work opportunities, but her heart was always in Greenwood where they eventually returned and happily spent their retirement years.

Frances loved reading and was an avid gardener, forming beautiful yards where ever they lived, as well as an accomplished artist. She co-founded the Kettle Valley Art Club in 1967, remaining a member until her death and spending countless happy hours there where she created numerous beautiful oil paintings and water colours that are treasured by her friends and family. It was there that she formed many of the life-long friendships that she cherished.

Left to mourn are her children, Morley (Kellee) of 100 Mile House, BC, Tracy (David) Goodman of Penticton, BC and Mary (Gordon) Brosseuk of Langley BC. Also mourning her passing are her grandchildren, Steven (Alanna), Susan ( Stuart), Sarah, Quinn, Ryan, and Bryanne-Leigh, as well as her brothers and their families. Frances was predeceased by her husband Brian.

Frances spent the last two years at Sun Village in Penticton where she cherished her new friends and her wonderful home care workers, and passed away surrounded by her family, in Moog and Friends Hospice House after a short stay. Special thanks to those care workers and the staff at Moog and Friends for their kindness and wonderful care. Also special thanks to mom’s friends that kept her in their thoughts and prayers, called her and made special, long trips just to see her and brighten her day. She cherished you dearly.

Cremation has taken place and there are no services at Frances request.

Later this summer she will be returned to her beloved Greenwood where her happiest memories lay.

William John Chernoff was born to John S. and Polly S. Chernoff on April 2, 1915, at Veregin, Sask. He was the youngest of four children having three older sisters: Lucy, Anne and Mary. Also two older half brothers: John Chernoff from his Dads side, and Lukian Nevakshonoff from his Mothers.

William John started his schooling in 1924 at the age of nine in a little red brick schoolhouse in Verigin, Sask., where he attended until 1930 completing the 6th grade.

Then due to an injury his dad sustained to his hand and was unable to fulfill his responsibilities to the communal work force, William John was called on to take his Dads place, thus having to leave school. For a period of nine years he worked in the communal agriculture enterprise of the Christian Community of Universal Brotherhood, mainly fieldwork with teams of horses.

In April of 1939 the decision was made to move to southern Alberta where his sister Anne and her husband Fred Faminow had leased land and invited William John to bring his parents and farm the adjacent land to theirs. With three cows, four horses, and some implements, they moved by train from Verigin to the Cowley, Lundbreck area of southern Alberta. For a period of four and a half years they prospered with the grain crops he planted and harvested and the mixed farming of raising pigs, cattle and horses. Toward the end of 1943, on the urging of his father wanting to be closer to the Doukhobor community at large in B.C., William and his parents decided to move to B.C. From the sale of the livestock he raised for nearly five years at Alberta, William was able to buy a parcel of land on Johnson Flats at Grand Forks.

Between Christmas and New Years of 1943, at the Province Hotel he met Mabel Negraeff and they were married on his birthday, April 2nd, 1944. Their first son William W. (Billy) was born in December. His dad, John S. passed away on the farm in the fall of 1945.

For the first two years he and Mabel grew seed onions on Johnson Flats until the spring of 1947 when they went into the dry goods and grocery business opening up William’s General Store in downtown Grand Forks until the fall of 1949. He bought a truck and went to work hauling logs for his father-in-law, John Negraeff who was operating a sawmill. In November of 1950 their second son, Lawrence William was born at Grand Forks.

William stayed with the logging and Mabel worked out cooking in restaurants until the fall of 1955 when they bought the Pinewood Cabins at Christina Lake, B.C., and by 1956 William had built a restaurant and cleared a campground. The business became know as the Pinewood Cabins and Café, known for its home cooked meals, pies and borscht.

Being a seasonal business, in the winter months William continued to work out on the different construction jobs that were happening all around at that time as a carpenter and laborer when called for. He and Mabel operated the cafe until 1969 when it was sold and William built a home in town and semi-retired.

William continued to work out in the summer months and travel in the winter. His beloved Mabel passed away in 1995 and he did not re-marry.

William was predeceased by his parents John and Polly Chernoff; sisters: Mary Riebin, Lucy Seminoff and Anne Faminow; two brothers, John Chernoff and Lukian Nevakshonoff; and by his wife of 51 years, Mabel. William is survived by his sons, Billy and Lorne (Iris); grandchildren: John William Chernoff, Catherine Grace Chernoff, Meagan Mabel Chernoff, Kristen Page Hutchcroft and Melanie Joy Chursinoff; and great-grandson, Chase Andrew Hutchcroft.

William was a quiet and gentle hard working man, a devoted husband and a wonderfully warm and caring father.

Special thanks to all who have traveled to be here this morning; thanks to the singers; John Verigin; Jerry Seminoff for guidance and help; Everett Baker and staff for guidance and arrangements; Pastor John Siemens of First Baptist Church; all who have spoken kindness; the men who prepared the grave site; all who brought food; and the ladies who prepared the food.

William was a lifelong member of the Union of Spiritual Communities of Christ and the Brotherhood Choir, and a committee member of the association of Canada-USSR. He was an active member and took part in all activities.

Funeral services were held on Saturday, June 30, 2012, at the USCC Community Center with burial in the USCC Sion Doukhobor Cemetery at Grand Forks, B.C. Funeral arrangements were entrusted to Everett Baker of Grand Forks Funeral Home.
