Cougar invades Sunningdale home Animal tracked down and killed by Conservation officer BY TIMOTHY SCHAFER Times Staff

TIMOTHY SCHAFER PHOTO

It was a clean start to the week for Ben Corbett, maintenance man for Kootenay Savings, as he washed off the sidewalk in front of the credit union, and then installed “structures” to discourage pigeons from roosting above the entrances.

An “emancipated” cougar walked right into a Sunningdale neighbourhood home on Saturday evening and attacked a woman while she was sitting on her living room sofa. A very old female cougar that was too weak from starvation to hunt in the normal fashion tried to find a quick meal at the Glen Drive residence on the edge of the neighbourhood. “This is an extremely rare occurrence and was driven by the animal’s desperation for food,” said Trail RCMP Sgt. Rob Hawton in a press release. Earlier this month the president of the Trail Wildlife Association (TWA), Terry Hanik, raised the alarm of a rise in predators in the region. Hanik said cougars and wolves were pushing into the area, adding their numbers to the plethora of coyotes already plaguing the backcountry and eroding the deer population. Former TWA president Rick Fillmore felt the network of power lines, logging roads and pipeline right-of-ways crisscross-

ing B.C. contributed to a corridor that allowed predators to be very mobile in their pursuit of prey— and it explained how so many predators have made it into the Greater Trail region. Those corridors have led the predators into more settled areas where the deer have been thriving for years, he said. With dwindling deer populations, however, the predators are looking further a field. On Saturday around 8:30 p.m. that field was in Sunningdale. “The woman was in her house with a number of puppies when the cougar walked in through an open door and attacked her on the sofa,” said Hawton. With the help of her dog the woman fought the cougar off and subsequently chased it out of the house. As a result, the woman received a couple of minor injuries to her upper leg from the cougar’s claws. Hawton said the cougar was gone upon the arrival of police and a subsequent search was not successful. B.C. Conservation officers were called in and eventually tracked down and destroyed the cougar Monday morning. After being contacted Monday for details on the attack and the predator situation in the area conservation officers did not reply.

Crowe offering a head start on high school year BY BREANNE MASSEY Times Staff

Moving into high school is a bit like getting an apartment for the first time, according to J.L. Crowe school counsellor Loretta Jones. Instead of skulking shyly down a hallway or getting lost on their first day at high school, new students and Grade 8’s can now feel confident thanks to a transition program developed several years ago. The program allows new

pupils the opportunity to adopt a locker, make it their own and map out a pathway to their classes for the next five years of their lives without the added pressure from older students around them. “We feel it’s one of the best things we could offer a prospective Grade 8 student and their parents to make them feel more comfortable and cause that stress level to go right down on the first day of school,” Jones said. “(Through this) kids are

prepared; they feel much more comfortable if they’ve got a friend and know the building. We feel it’s a super resource for us.” On Thursday between 9-11 a.m. students can move into their lockers early, tour the school and fill out their timetables with help from senior students in the leadership program. In addition school officials will be offering workshops about coping with social issues.

In addition, any two-level bid is to play (no Stayman nor transfers) and any direct three-level bid is forcing to game showing a five-card suit.

The play: Declarer ruffs the second club and takes a heart finesse. It wins and South cashes the ace of hearts. He ruffs a third club back to his hand and ruffs a heart. The fourth heart is now good. He ruffs another club with the eight and takes a trump finesse capturing the queen. He is happy to take one honour and concedes the king. Declarer plays a spade to the king which is the right play when a doubleton is involved. South loses a spade, a diamond and a club.

FROM PAGE 1 “Some are for the Grade 8’s in particular,” she said. “We did a bullying workshop last year for them early on (and) we also do some academic workshops for them where they get some tips on test writing and exams, doing homework or being organized.” The first day of school will be a half day from 8:30 a.m. until noon on Sept. 4 and regular classes will begin the following day. She predicts there will be roughly 760 students attending school this fall. According to Greg Luterbach, the superintendent of schools for School District 20 (Kootenay Columbia), enrolment numbers are projected to be at roughly 3,900 this fall. While that means enrolment numbers have dropped by roughly 55 students this year, it is a considerable improvement over a drop of more than 100 students the year before. However, the projected drop in enrollment numbers was anticipated last year and the annual school budget reflected that, being curtailed by $1.4 million, according to Luterbach. Grade 8’s and new students can “Move into the Crowe” between 9 and 11 a.m. Thursday morning.

Council gives itself a pay raise BY TIMOTHY SCHAFER Times Staff

For the first time in five years Trail city councillors will be giving themselves a raise. Council approved an annual indemnity bylaw recently that will see them make 2.3 per cent more as of Jan. 1. The mayor’s seat will now receive $27,473 per year, up from $26,855. Each of the city’s six councillors will receive $13,737 per year in 2013, up from the $13,428 they are receiving this year. Councillor Gord DeRosa said Trail had fallen “dramatically” behind in what they were receiving as an indemnity for their work, after taking no or only cost of living increases prior to 2008. “That hurt us all to do,” he said. “There was a lot of arguing for keeping it less than everybody else.” Council had hired an independent com-

mittee to research what the Silver City seven made in relation to other elected municipal bodies across the province. The recommendation that came back was to hike council salaries. The money is paid out of the annual revenue of the city. One third of the indemnity paid is an allowance for expenses “incidental to the discharge of the duties of office.” City corporate administrator Michelle MacIsaac said one third of council’s wage was not taxable to reward them for the expenses they incur. In 2009 council approved an annual indemnity bylaw that reflected a three per cent raise at the time. By comparison, Quesnel—a B.C. Interior city with a population of around 10,000—pays their mayor $40,236 annually and their councillors $13,800 per annum.

Huckleberry’s licence request gets approved BY TIMOTHY SCHAFER Times Staff

The love for Columbia Gardens and its resident restaurant, Huckleberry’s Café, was contagious as Trail city council caught that affectionate feeling and approved a service commercial licence for the location at their Aug. 20 regular meeting. Over one month ago 40 people turned out to show the love they had for Huckleberry’s Café. Most of the people who appeared for the July 16 public meeting supported a move to grant a permanent service commercial C7C licence to the popular restaurant—located at 8195 Old Waneta Road on Columbia Gardens land. Huckleberry’s had been operating under a temporary commercial use permit for its establishment for the last four years, but since the property was zoned service commercial (C7)—and eating establishments are not listed as a permitted use—the café had been able to operate under a temporary commercial use permit

(TCUP). The only major issue that could have stopped the licence was parking, with on-street parking being a necessity due to the compressed nature of the business lot and the neighbourhood. The availability of parking to serve the greenhouse and the café were limited during peak season, “creating a nuisance for the residential properties nearby,” read a city staff report to council. The restaurant—managed by Carole Dasti—has used the property owned by Bill Garnett, alongside Columbia Valley greenhouses for four years. A TCUP was issued for the first three years of its operation but it can only be renewed once. And since the TCUP for Huckleberry’s was renewed in 2010, a rezoning of the property was required to allow the operation to continue. The proposed change could allow the café to extend its hours past the 9 p.m. restriction in place with the TCUP.

The British Columbia Lottery Corporation (BCLC) has released their most recent earnings report for Chances Casino in Castlegar and although there is room for improvement, management is pleased. “Chances Castlegar had a good start,” said Troy Bilodeau, director of operations for Berezan Hospitality Group, the company that owns Chances. “Basically they (BCLC) released an eight month operating report and the earnings were $4.9 million in revenue. Revenues were not as high as some comparable facilities but the operation is just a year old and we’re still growing and getting established in the community.” Bilodeau says they expect bingo revenue to pick up at the casino in the fall.

“We’re really working on that,” he said. “We’re going to begin a new program shortly with a lot lower prices and lot better games offered.” The casino also has a found money program, whereby any left over vouchers are given to charity. “They range from a penny up to $20,” said Bilodeau. “That money is given back to the community. Some of the groups that have benefitted from that are the Kootenay Animal Assistance Program (KAAP), Castlegar Rotary Clubs, Rossland LIght Opera players. There’s been thousands of dollars donated.” Chances recently gave the City of Castlegar around $396,000 for hosting the facility. The payment is part of an agreement between the two parties and amounts to 10 per cent of Chances’ net profit.

Union firmly rejects Heritage contract offer THE CASTLEGAR NEWS Workers at Heritage Credit Union and HG Insurance in Castlegar and Slocan Park cast their ballot on Friday and firmly rejected the employer’s last offer by a 76 per cent margin. The employer had applied for and been granted a Last Offer Vote under the BC Labour Code last week. The vote was conducted by an Industrial Relations Officer from the Employment Standards Branch Friday at the Credit Union and offices of HG Insurance in Castlegar and Slocan Park. “This result qualifies our position that the most important issue – the pension shortfall – still hasn’t been dealt with sufficiently,” said USW Local 1-405 Financial Secretary Jeff Bromley, bargaining agent for the employees of the Credit Union and Insurance Agency. “If the employer was unsure of where we stand on the issue, they surely know now.”

PROVINCIAL OSOYOOS

City boots out unruly guests BY JOE FRIES Penticton Western News

It may brag about offering Canada’s warmest welcome, but Osoyoos has withdrawn that hospitality from those who interfere with others’ enjoyment of the community’s parks and beaches. In July, police and bylaw officers began issuing expulsion orders to the most unruly visitors that ban them from returning to parks and beaches until the end of September. Osoyoos RCMP Sgt. Kevin Schur said “five or six” of the letters had been written as of last week, the first of which was handed to a local resident, while the rest were given to transients. “This isn’t for somebody who just cracks a beer on the beach; this is for somebody that’s causing a big disturbance.” He said one letter was issued after two Mounties were surrounded by a group of 20 to 30 people on a beach and forced to leave for their safety. “Later, they were able to find the ringleader and issue them the appropriate bylaw ticket or warning and the letter,” Schur recounted.

“The people are causing this and they’ve escalated it. So if they act appropriately when the police are there and identify themselves and get their ticket, warning (or) whatever, then that will probably be the end of it,” he said. “If they continue, they may be issued an expulsion letter off that one incident.” The letters are issued under the town’s Parks and Community Facilities Regulations Bylaw, which specifies what behaviour will not be tolerated in public spaces and allows for indefinite expulsion for contraventions of those rules. Repeat offenders could end up in court and face a $10,000 fine. Barry Romanko, the town’s chief administrative officer, said the bylaw was rewritten in 2011, but expulsions weren’t required until this summer when public complaints began to pile up. “This year was an extremely difficult year for us,” Romanko said. “There seemed to be a different edge on the people that were here. They were less compliant. Their actions were in fact more

criminal in nature, socially disruptive.” In addition to the use of expulsion letters, the town also used additional funds received through its resort municipality agreement with the B.C. government to step up patrols. That includes having a bylaw officer in the Gyro Park area everyday from noon until 10:30 p.m. Romanko said the additional manpower will cost about $8,000, but it’s a good investment to protect the town’s reputation as a safe place for tourists. “Actually, I think it is a really good idea,” said Alyssa Schroyer, a visitor from Wenatchee, Wash., who had a word with a bylaw officer during a visit Wednesday to an Osoyoos park. “He talked to us about not smoking in public parks and was really nice, which is good especially for people who aren’t from the area and don’t know what the rules are,” Schroyer said. “I also think it’s good to have someone around in case there is anybody who is causing problems and bothering other people.”

Grass fire brought under control BY RICHARD ROLKE Vernon Morning Star

North Okanagan firefighters were again trying to ensure a blaze didn’t get out of hand. Reports first started coming in about a grass fire at 10 p.m. Sunday between the Kalamalka Lake lookout and Kekuli Bay Provincial Park.

“It was knocked down pretty quickly,” said Kevin Skrepnek, an information officer with the B.C. Wildfire Management Branch. While the blaze was outside of any fire department jurisdictions, crews from Coldstream, Vernon and Lake Country

responded, as did the Wildfire Management Branch. There was no formal evacuation of homes but the RCMP did make residents aware of the situation. “Some people did leave but they were back in their homes before midnight,” said Skrepnek.

Crews remained on scene overnight to ensure the blaze didn’t grow beyond half-ahectare in size. “The cause is still under investigation,” said Skrepnek, who is warning residents to be cautious with fire because of dry grass conditions.

NEIL ARMSTRONG

National service pondered for iconic astronaut THE ASSOCIATED PRESS CINCINNATI, Ohio - A private service is planned in Cincinnati on Friday for astronaut Neil Armstrong, the first man on the moon. The Ohio native died Saturday in Cincinnati at age 82. No other information was released immediately about the service, other than that it would be private. There have been preliminary discussions about a national memorial service for Armstrong, who often shunned publicity in the decades after his historic mission, but a family spokesman said there were no details yet. U.S. Sen. Rob Portman, who is from Ohio and has called Armstrong “a good friend and adviser,� will eulogize him at Friday’s service. Portman is in Tampa, Florida, for the Republican National Convention, where he is scheduled to speak Wednesday night. Spokeswoman Caitlin Dunn said his office is working on travel arrangements to get him back to Cincinnati in time for the service. The convention schedule has already been changed this week and could be further disrupted as Tropical Storm Isaac bears down on the Gulf Coast. The Museum of Natural History & Science of the Cincinnati Museum Center has an exhibit that includes a moon rock and replicas of Armstrong’s Apollo 11 spacesuit and tools used on the moon. It is offering free admission through Labor Day to honour Armstrong, and more than 2,000 people visited Sunday. Armstrong, who commanded the Apollo 11 moon landing on July 20, 1969, was born in Wapakoneta, in western Ohio. He is celebrated there at the Armstrong Air & Space Museum, which is plan-

The photo provided by NASA shows Neil Armstrong. The first man to walk on the moon died Saturday at age 82. ning a memorial tribute Wednesday night. The tribute is called “Wink at the Moon.� The statement Armstrong’s family released upon his death requested that the public honour his example of service, accomplishment and modesty, adding “and the next time you walk outside on a clear night and see the moon smiling down at you, think of Neil Armstrong and give him a wink.� --Armstrong died following complications resulting from cardiovascular procedures, his family said in a statement. Armstrong had had a bypass operation this month, according to NASA. His family didn’t say where he died; he had lived in suburban Cincinnati. Armstrong commanded the Apollo 11 spacecraft that landed on the moon July 20, 1969, capping the most daring of the 20th century’s scientific expeditions. His first words after becoming the first person to set foot on the surface are etched in history books and the memories of those

who heard them in a live broadcast. “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind,� Armstrong said. (Armstrong insisted later that he had said “a� before man, but said he too couldn’t hear it in the version that went to the world.) In those first few moments on the moon, during the climax of a heated space race with the then-Soviet Union, Armstrong stopped in what he called “a tender moment� and left a patch to commemorate

NASA astronauts and Soviet cosmonauts who had died in action. “It was special and memorable but it was only instantaneous because there was work to do,� Armstrong told an Australian television interviewer this year. Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin spent nearly three hours walking on the lunar surface, collecting samples, conducting experiments and taking photographs. “The sights were simply magnificent, beyond any visual experience that I had ever been exposed to,� Armstrong once said. The moonwalk marked America’s victory in the Cold War space race that began Oct. 4, 1957, with the launch of the Soviet Union’s Sputnik 1, a 184-pound satellite that sent shock waves around the world. Although he had been a Navy fighter pilot, a test pilot for NASA’s forerunner and an astronaut, Armstrong never allowed himself to be caught up in the celebrity and glamour of the space program. “I am, and ever will be, a white socks, pocket protector, nerdy engineer,� he said in 2000 in one of his rare public appearances. “And I take a substantial amount of pride in the accomplishments of my profession.� Fellow Ohioan and

policy that shifted attention away from a return to the moon and emphasized private companies developing spaceships.

The idea of studying new projects to death

N

DP leader Adrian Dix has announced that one of his first acts as premier would be to withdraw B.C. from the joint review of the Enbridge pipeline proposal from Alberta to Kitimat. The two-year federalled review will be mostly done by next May, but Dix proposes to start a new provincial assessment to examine at the B.C. portion. He doesn’t know how much it would cost, and under questioning he all but admitted the intention is to study the pipeline to death. Fresh from a summer tour of the pipeline route to reaffirm solidarity with its opponents, Dix is hardly in a position to consider anything but maximum resistance. As Premier Christy Clark did in her showdown with Alberta over benefits, Dix hinted that provincial permits for river and wildlife crossings would be made as expensive as possible, if

not refused. The same fate awaits the Kinder Morgan plan to twin the existing TransMountain oil pipeline to Burnaby. Dix left the impression that he would undo the years of work that have gone into bringing some rational sense to environmental approvals that can be, and have been, dragged out for years. The B.C. hearings would provide another platform for opponents, and more complaints to justify refusal at the provincial level, to go along with court cases and direct-action protests. Speaking of which, the frontal assault by agitators at the federal Enbridge hearings has mostly petered out. After 4,000-odd people were signed up to speak, most didn’t bother, and some hearings were cancelled. Apparently slacktivists such as “Jonathan L. Seagull” and “Cave Man” didn’t make it out of their Vancouver basement

TOM

FLETCHER B.C. Views suites to tell the panel oil is bad. Professional environmentalists are now wringing their hands over Ottawa’s decision to leave smaller-scale reviews to the province. This means, for example, that there won’t be a duplicate federal review of the urgently needed refit of the John Hart Dam on the Campbell River. One reader suggested that environmental pioneer Roderick Haig-Brown is still spinning in his grave over the damming of this legendary salmon river. Perhaps, but that

was in 1947. Does it make sense today to lard pointless bureaucracy onto a reconstruction that replaces wooden pipes and provides earthquake protection, without expanding river impact? NDP environment critic Rob Fleming hammered away at the B.C. Liberals about this in the spring, reminding them that Auditor General John Doyle had exposed a lack of resources in the B.C. Environmental Assessment Office, even before Ottawa’s changes. Fleming makes it sound like a huge new burden has been dumped on B.C. False. Provincial assessment already must be done with the participation of Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Transport Canada, the provincial ministries of natural resources and energy and mines, and of course aboriginal communities. This is why it’s so long and expensive.

And don’t be fooled into believing that a federal review would go out and count the tadpoles and caribou again. It’s only the desk jobs that have proliferated. There weren’t just two levels of duplicate review, but three. Earlier in their mandate, the B.C. Liberals exempted major projects such as mines and energy generation from local government control, citing the “provincial interest” similar to the federal authority over projects that cross provincial borders. I agree with the NDP that B.C. environmental assessment needs more resources, in particular to do the follow-up on approved projects, as called for by the auditor general. Forest management needs more money too. All the more reason not to waste resources on political gestures. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com

TV LISTINGS JERSEY SHORE

‘Snooki’ becomes a mom THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK - “Jersey Shore” star Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi early Sunday gave birth to her first child, a boy. The reality TV star and her fiance, Jionni LaValle, welcomed 6-pound, 5-ounce Lorenzo Dominic LaValle into the world at just before 3 a.m. Sunday at Saint Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston, N.J., MTV said. “The world just got another Guido!!!,” a Polizzi rep told MTV. “Nicole, Jionni & Enzo are doing great!” MTV congratulated Polizzi and her fiance and looked toward the newborn’s possible appearance on “Jersey Shore.” “We couldn’t be happier for Nicole and Jionni on the healthy delivery of their baby boy!,” MTV said in a statement. “We look forward to Lorenzo’s first trip to the Jersey Shore and can’t wait to see his first animal print onesie.” MTV has said it’s bringing “Jersey Shore” back for a sixth season, with the 24-year-old Snooki as part of the action, but has declined to offer specifics on how big a part Snooki will play in the show about hard-partying Italian-American friends.

LETTERS & OPINION

The rise of the attack ad

A

ll political parties are children of Saul Alinsky. I will get to justifying that statement a little further on, but let me start by explaining the difference between a negative ad and an attack ad. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first take a look at the early political career of one of Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most famous Canadian Prime Ministers: Sir Wilfrid Laurier. ANNE In 1877, Laurier had to stand for reTroy election after he was appointed to Cabinet by Prime Minister Alexander Mackenzie. Until 1930, you see, MPs who were appointed to cabinet had to resign their seats and stand for re-election in a ministerial byelection. Laurier lost. How? Dirty politics. His Conservative opponents spread the rumour that â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Not one of the Lauriersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; children has been baptized.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; In the staunchly Catholic rural Quebec of 1877, this was a scandal of epic proportions and proved fatal to Laurierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s re-election. The rumour was also misleading misrepresentation, or a selected portion of the truth. You see, Wilfrid and his wife, ZoĂŠ, had no children. And thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where the difference between a negative ad and an attack ad comes in. A negative ad will tell an inconvenient or unpleasant truth about something that happened, but â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;tweakingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; it to

distort what happened turns it into an attack ad. Attack ads donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t uncover flaws, they create them. Political parties of all ideologies justify using attack ads by saying they help uncover candidatesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; flaws, helping voters with their decision. But thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s true only when the ad doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t distort or mislead. Attack ads rely on our belief that â&#x20AC;&#x153;Where thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s smoke, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fire.â&#x20AC;? Just remember that attack ads are more likely to Media be smoke bombs than fires. Deceptive tactics and personality-based political attacks are nothing new, and are not limited to any one country or culture. What is new, however, is the unrelenting cruelty of the attacks. When one attack is shown to be factually untrue, it is replaced with multiple malicious attacks. When you look behind the politics of personal destruction, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find two guiding ideas: (1) â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re right; theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re wrong;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; and (2) the end justifies the means. And that leads us to Saul Alinsky, an American community organizer and writer. Barack Obama taught his community-organizing tactics before he became President. Alinsky set out his power tactics in his book Rules for Radicals. As Alinksy wrote, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The most effective means are whatever will achieve the desired results.â&#x20AC;? One of Alinskyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rules, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pick

MCTAVISH

the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it,â&#x20AC;? gave rise to todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attack ads. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t talk about the issues, focus instead on how bad your opposition is. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why any question about policies or events is answered with an attack on the person rather than on the desirability of the policy. Attack ads donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want you thinking about the issues; they just wants to get you mad. So what can we do when weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re faced with an attack ad? We can ignore it. If someone repeats an attack ad, we can ask what the source of the information is. If itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Somebody told me,â&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;I heard that . . .,â&#x20AC;? we can safely set it aside as unreliable. We can also ask for more details. For example, in the case of Laurier, asking â&#x20AC;&#x153;Which children werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t baptized?â&#x20AC;? If weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re discussing an issue and the other person starts playing the Blame Game, we can politely say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sorry. I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ask who was to blame, I asked what happened.â&#x20AC;? If weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re watching a talk show and they start avoiding the question, we can change the channel. If weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re at a town-hall meeting and the speaker starts the Blame Game, we can get up and walk out. We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to accept what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re saying, and we certainly donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to listen to a verbal brawl. Attack ads and dirty tricks might be part of the political game, but we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to listen to them, and we certainly donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to accept what they tell us.

Keeping pace with living costs An editorial from the Kamloops Daily News A collision of two statistics regarding Canadiansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; spending habits might indicate tough times are coming. Recently, credit-reporting company TransUnion released a report that showed the average Canadianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s debt load is $26,221 - that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t include any mortgage and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2.41 per cent more than a year ago. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also the highest debt per capita that TransUnion has counted since it began compiling the numbers in 2004. Even more than in 2008, when the global economy tanked. Put that trend beside another statistic and a cautionary picture of Canadian consumers begins to take shape. Statistics Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s retail

sales tally for June shows an unexpected drop in spending. The number might not seem big - 0.4 per cent less spending in June than in May - but considering it was expected to go up by 0.1 per cent, the downward slide should have shop owners watching closely. So how is it our debt is going up if weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not spending as much in Canadian stores? Cross-border and online shopping could be factors, along with store closures and consumer cutbacks. As Canadians, we tend to be cautious spenders. We tend to be savers. But weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re slipping. Our financial conservatism is being eroded as incomes struggle to keep pace with the cost of living. Low interest rates are help-

ing keep the cost of loans down, but they wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stay down forever. A sudden economic change could see interest rates leap upward, and all those people who owe thousands of dollars could be stuck. Even the Bank of Canada has said household debt is the top domestic risk to the economy. Canadians have to remember low interest doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean no interest, just as careful budgeting doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean stop spending. Living within our means is an important tenet, especially with per-capita debt loads on the rise. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good time for Canadians to take another look at their household budgets and see if there are ways to better balance the books.

NATIONAL QUEBEC

Return to school rekindles protests Warm fall expected Weather Network predicts warm weather will stick around

THE CANADIAN PRESS

MONTREAL - The calm of summer was shattered Monday with the reopening of Quebec universities, where some classes were disrupted as protesters disobeyed the back-to-school law. The chaotic scenes came in the final stretch of an election campaign where the student unrest has mostly faded into a non-issue. The reopening of two Montreal universities produced numerous tense moments. Several classes were cancelled by masked, noise-making crowds that banged on pots, pulled fire alarms or

The riot squad stands by as student block an entrance to the Universite de Montreal Monday in Montreal. blew on air horns while ordering students to leave. The crowds worked their way from one room to another, determined to clear out classes in any faculty

that had voted to continue striking. That led to confrontations with security, staff and students who wanted study. In one case, a teacher blocked protesters from entering

a class at Universite du Quebec a Montreal. Other teachers simply cancelled classes amid the cacophony. In one case, a class was suspended when no students showed up.

Don’t close the pool just yet. Fall is just around the corner, there have been some cooler days lately, but summer weather will drag into September in most of Canada, says the Weather Network. Eastern Manitoba to Newfoundland, southern Alberta and parts of Saskatchewan can expect above average temperatures to continue as the fall season begins, says Chris Scott, director of meteorology at the Weather Network. “We think there will be a little bit of a hangover, a nice afterglow from the warmth of the summer that will carry over into at least the start of the fall season,” Scott said. That doesn’t mean Vancouver, Winnipeg and Edmonton won’t see

warm days ahead, but the larger western cities will all have closer to normal fall temperatures, says Scott. In the North, the Weather Network says fall temperatures and precipitation will be mostly in the normal range, except for northern Nunavut, where it will be slightly warmer than average. As the season progresses into October, the Weather Network forecasts a see-saw of cold spells interspersed with warm days until cool air eventually takes over late in the fall, possibly mid-November. “There will be a few shots of cool but there are still quite a few warm days ahead. I wouldn’t close the pool just yet,” Scott said. A warm Thanksgiving long weekend looks like a real possibility for many Canadians. “There will certainly be some people eating turkey outdoors,” said Scott.

School Opening Information 2012/2013

Tuesday, September 4, 2012 Superintendent’s Message Hard to believe but we are nearing the end of the school summer break. The Labour Day weekend in September marks the end of summer for students and staff. September is an exciting time for schools as we get back to working with all our students to help them on their learning journey. We encourage all of our community to be actively involved with your schools. Talk to your child’s teacher and principal and find a way to stay involved and connected. Parental involvement really can make a difference in student achievement. All schools will be open at 8:00 a.m. September 4th for the registration of students new to the district and for any local Kindergarten and Grade One pupils not previously registered. Students will report for instruction on Tuesday, September 4, 2012 at times noted. September 4th will be a shortened day for students. Shortening the day will allow students an opportunity to become acquainted with their school, while at the same time enabling teachers to finalize their preparations for Wednesday, September 5th, the first full day of instruction. Kindergarten students will have gradual entry over the first week and a half so please contact your school for those times. To our existing students and families welcome back! To our new students and families, whether you are just starting kindergarten or moved here over the summer, a special warm welcome to your new school and district.

SENIOR GAMES

Pitcher throws in with Blaze A Trail athlete has made a difficult decision that will see him trade his hockey stick for the baseball bat this winter. Dallas Calvin, a talented hockey and baseball player, has chosen the diamond over the ice, as he prepares to join the Langley Blaze baseball development program this week. Calvin a standout for the KIJHL champion Beaver Valley Nitehawks last year was also invited back to the Kamloops Blazers training camp of the Western Hockey League this month. The 17-year-old left-handed pitcher says it was a very tough decision not to go. “I don’t want to give up hockey, but I don’t want to give up either sport I guess. I gave hockey a try last year and it didn’t really work out, so I thought I’d try baseball and hopefully I’ll take it somewhere.” The Langley Blaze’s premier baseball program for players age 16-18 begins Tuesday, with eight coaches running five to six practices per week with instruction from ex-college and professional players. The team will play approximately 24 games commencing in September until mid October, when the team heads indoors to its winter facility to refine skills and work with trainers on physical conditioning. “I am really excited, I can’t wait,” said Calvin as he gets set to join the team, adding they have some quality coaching and will play up to 110 games during the year. Calvin joined the Blaze for a 10 game swing through southern California early last

The Blaze manager Doug Mathieson was impressed with Calvin’s performance and likes his potential, saying he was good enough to step into the Blaze’s starting lineup. “He’s got a good bat, though he probably has a better chance as a pitcher to go pro,” said Mathieson. “Lefthanded pitchers who are sixfoot-four tend to draw some attention.” Playing with the Blaze will give Calvin lots of exposure as the team makes trips to Arizona, Florida, and California for tournaments and training this season, playing in front of hundreds of scouts and colleges. “I think everything 18 and under is development, but we

try to prepare kids for college or pro ball, that’s our number one goal,” said Mathieson. The Blaze’s 2012 team had 10 players receive scholarships to post-secondary institutions in Canada and the U.S. The Blaze will also participate in a spring training camp in Arizona in March before starting a 48-game schedule in the B.C. Premier Baseball League in the spring/summer, as well as playing in tournaments in B.C. and the U.S. “(My goal) is just to get better, and hopefully get a scholarship,” said Calvin. “Hopefully some things come up this year.” While Calvin will be focusing on baseball, he still plans to bring his hockey gear to the coast to get in a little recreational ice time.

The B.C. Senior Games came to a close on Sunday in Burnaby with the Zone 6 West Kootenay Boundary Team putting in a great effort despite its numbers. Predictably a much smaller contingent of athletes attended the Burnaby Games than did the 2011 Senior Games held in Trail, Castlegar and Nelson, nevertheless the team won an impressive 64 medals in all, with 20 gold, 25 silver, and 19 bronze to finish eighth out of 13 zones. The Zone 6 swim team led the way with 20 medals including four gold from Grand Forks swimmer Betty Brussel, while Nelson’s Marylee Banyard picked up three gold and a silver, and Rossland’s Barb Roberts a gold and silver medal. Other Greater Trail results include Jim Harold of Trail winning gold in men’s 55+ horseshoes while Dorthy Harrold picked up bronze in the women’s. Trail’s Rino De Biasio added to his collection with a silver and bronze in the cycling time trials and road race respectively. In golf, Cecil DuBois of Rossland captured silver in Men’s 65-69, while Fruitvale’s Alma McBlain took home bronze. The Men’s 55+ hockey team captured the gold, as did Suzan Breedveld and Dorothy Telford in women’s doubles badminton. In men’s 55+ curling the team of Russ Beauchamp, Garry Beaudry, Harry Davidson and Don Bedard won silver, while the women’s team of Rose Beauchamp, Marnie Devlin, Rose Katnich, and Grace Terness took bronze. The Zone 6 slopitch team also won bronze in the men’s 60-64 class. The Lower Mainland came first overall with 433 medals that included 220 gold, 121 silver, and 92 bronze, followed by Fraser Valley, 371, and Vancouver Island North, 209.

BASEBALL

Prince George national champs PRINCE GEORGE– The host Prince George Axemen gave their fans something to cheer about after defeating Ontario to win the Senior Men’s National Championship on the weekend. After already losing once to Prince George in round robin play, Ontario was looking for some revenge in the championship final. However, it wasn’t meant to be as the host Prince George squad got the best of Ontario again defeating them 9-5. Ontario got on the board early with a run in the first inning to take the 1-0 lead, but the Axemen quickly cut the lead by picking up four runs of their own in the bottom half of the inning. Looking to climb back into the game, Ontario got within one run, but it wasn’t meant to be. Centre fielder Brandon Hunter hit a grand slam home run in the bottom of the fourth to make it 9-3 Prince George. Ontario would add two runs late but it wasn’t enough. The host Axemen from Prince George lost only one game throughout the tournament including a thrilling last inning 4-2 comeback win against Alberta in the semifinal. Sean Hotzack hit a dramatic two-run home run in the bottom of seventh inning to break a 2-2 tie and send the host team to the championship final and ultimately the gold medal. Alberta went on to take bronze by beating New Brunswick 6-5.

LEISURE

Dance studio may be financially abusive Dear Annie: My 81-year-old mother lives alone, drives her own car and manages her own finances. Between savings, retirement income and inheritance, she is well fixed. What worries me is that Mom has been enrolled in ballroom dance lessons for several years. These lessons are exorbitantly expensive, costing in the six figures annually. There are multiple lessons each week, as well as competition trips. The instructors, managers and owners of the club flatter Mom and tell her what a wonderful dancer she is. But, Annie, I’ve seen her performances, and she looks lost, doesn’t remember the steps and has no clue what to do next. I believe this dance studio is taking advantage of her. I spoke to management, but they said it’s none of my business. Mom used to be quite frugal, and I worry that she no longer has the judgment to man-

age her money. Yet I can’t do anything about it other than wring my hands. She won’t listen to a word I say. Mom never visits the grandchildren. She has no interest in family activities and has abandoned the things she used to do before she discovered dancing. She had a small stroke two years ago, and her doctor has made numerous appointments with a neurologist, but she always finds a reason to cancel. If Mom burns through her resources, I will not have the means to help when she can no longer live independently. I am hurt that she lies to me

when all I want is to see that she is provided for. -- Only Child in Music City Dear Music City: We’re glad Mom enjoys her dance lessons, and it’s good exercise, but it sounds as if this dance studio may be guilty of financial abuse. Call the Better Business Bureau in your city and find out whether complaints have been registered. Also contact the National Center on Elder Abuse (ncea.aoa. gov) and the Eldercare Locator (1-800-6771116) and ask for assistance. Then, when your mother has her next doctor’s appointment, ask if you can go along. Alert the doctor’s office in advance, and request a more extensive exam. Dear Annie: My father-in-law loves going to yard sales and likes to buy sale items for our home and our four sons. The problem is that we have limited space and don’t need all this junk. The toys

tend to have a missing part or be partially broken, and the clothes have stains or holes. My husband wants to simply accept the items because my father-in-law would otherwise be offended. But it upsets me that they give us so many used items. We just got back from a weeklong visit and were barraged with bags of these things. -Tired of Used Stuff Dear Tired: Even used junk is a gift that requires a “thank you.” Please accept your father-in-law’s yard sale items with graciousness. He means well. Then throw them away as soon as you see a garbage can, give them to charity, fuse them into a garden sculpture or do whatever else you wish with them. Dear Annie: “Frustrated in the Midwest,” who doesn’t want her parents to attend her children’s school events, comes across as very selfabsorbed. I am 63 and

was reared in a generation where we enjoyed our families. We included our parents in our lives. I cherish the memories of them sharing our children’s activities. I have first-hand knowledge of this “new

generation” attitude. My oldest son and daughter-in-law have banned me from seeing my grandchildren. My youngest daughter-inlaw is downright rude to me. “Family time” is a thing of the past. If a Grandma wants

to show love and concern, she is meddling. Merely calling to see if everyone is OK is intrusive. My generation will be passing away soon, and sadly, these kids will wake up too late, if at all. -- One Frustrated Grandma

LEISURE

YOUR HOROSCOPE By Francis Drake For Wednesday, Aug. 29, 2012 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You have wonderful opportunities today to improve your health, your job or both. Do whatever you can, because it will have a longterm benefit for you. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Love at first sight might take place, and existing partnerships might be rejuvenated today. Whatever happens will shift things for the better in the future. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You definitely can make improvements to where you live today. Look especially to areas related to garbage, recycling, laundry, bathrooms and plumbing. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) All your communication with others is unusually intense, direct and to the point today. Your words

are like a hot knife cutting through butter. People will listen! LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) It’s entirely possible that you will see new ways to make money, or you might find a new job. Many of you also will see a new use for something you own. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Take a realistic look in the mirror today. What can you do to create a better image in your world? How can you improve your appearance? LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) If you want to know the truth or the bottom line about something, today you might learn just that. Be ready to dig deep, because secrets will be revealed to you. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) You might meet someone powerful in a group situation today. This person actually might inspire you or cause

you to modify your goals for the future. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Your conversation with someone in authority can make a big difference in the lives of others today. The extent to which you can benefit others is the extent to which you personally will benefit as well. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) A teacher or guru-like fig-

ure may come into your life today. Almost surely, this person has something beneficial to offer. Possibly, you are the teacher to others. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Look for new approaches on how to handle debt, shared property and inheritances. It’s possible to put a new spin on things today that benefits everyone, including yourself.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) You can improve your closest relationships today if you have an open mind to doing so. You might have to let something go, but perhaps it’s only dead weight. YOU BORN TODAY Neatness and order truly comfort you (not that you always achieve this). You lead such a busy life, you need the support of a workable system. You’re extremely emotional, which

is why you compartmentalize your life, keeping your personal world distinct from your work. You’re resourceful in finding solutions to problems. In the year ahead, relationships and your social life will please you. Birthdate of Todd English, celebrity chef; Rebecca de Mornay, actress; Michael Jackson, singer.

REGIONAL NELSON

Arena losing 65 seats BY SAM VAN SCHIE Nelson Star

The Trail Daily Times is giving away FREE wood pallets!

Get creative! Benches, tables, planters! Pick up at 1163 Cedar Ave, Trail 8:30-3pm

4HE ,OCAL %XPERTSâ&#x201E;˘

Though hockey fans consider them the best seats in the house, a row of chairs in the Nelson and District Community Centre arena will soon be removed to create more concourse space. The 65 chairs that currently form the top row on the east side of the arena will be taken out early next month, reducing the total number of seats to 1,335. NDCC recreation manager Eric Bientjes said removing the chairs will allow more room for walkers and joggers who regularly use the concourse for exercise, free of charge. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a popular place for seniors and mothers pushing strollers to come and walk indoors, especially in the winter,â&#x20AC;? said Bientjes, noting

itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also used for NDCC fitness classes and people running stairs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The chairs, how they are now, create a bottle neck for these activities.â&#x20AC;? But Nelson Leafs head coach Frank Maida isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happy about the seats coming out. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have season ticket holders that are disappointed,â&#x20AC;? he said. The top row is popular for hockey fans because it allows spectators to see over the glass, while also allowing an unobstructed view of the corners. of the rink. Maida was disappointed that the Leafs werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t involved in the consultation process. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were never asked what we thought of this, we were just told this was happening,â&#x20AC;? he said.
