Teenaged girl shot, found on Canning Road CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

Grand Forks RCMP received a report that a 17-year-old girl was found shot at Canning Road in Grand Forks on Sept. 22 at around 12:10 a.m.

The female, who is not from this area, was found lying on the road suffering from a gunshot wound.

The victim had called 911 using her cell phone requesting an ambulance and was still conscious when police and ambulance arrived – she was taken to Boundary Regional Hospital.

According to police, it was learned she had sustained severe wounds that required surgery at the hospital.

She was stabilized before she was transported for immediate surgery. She is currently in stable condition following the surgery and the police

investigation has determined that the shooting did not occur where the victim was located.

“There’s not much we can release at this moment but we are investigating. It will be a fairly long investigation by the looks of it,” Grand Forks RCMP Staff Sgt. Jim Harrison told the Grand Forks Gazette.

“Police don’t believe there is any public danger presented by this incident to the people in our community,” he said.

The area where she was found is a rural road with sparse population located just off Highway 3, west of Grand Forks.

The Kootenay Boundary Regional Detachment General Investigation Section is assisting Grand Forks RCMP. Anyone with knowledge of this incident is asked to contact Boundary Regional RCMP at 250-442-8288.

City to implement water meters at residential properties CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

Water metering will be implemented into Grand Forks’ residential properties as part of the city’s sustainable plans starting sometime in 2013.

The estimated cost to implementing the water meters to residential properties is $1.3 million.

The city originally applied for General Strategic Priorities Fund money to install the water meters in 2011. The grant funding was 100 per cent, which would cover the entire cost of installation, but was denied.

Another opportunity for a funding program through General Strategic Priorities Funds became available this summer. Similarly, it would also cover 100 per cent of the costs; however, the decision for the funding announcement will

not be announced until this December.

“This is something that the various councils have looked at over the past 15 years,” said Lynne Burch, the city’s chief administrative officer. “It’s definitely part of the sustainability plan and it’s part of council’s strategic plan.”

The city had previously discussed the implementation of the universal water metering program throughout the city and in the past decade, the city has already installed meters to all industrial, commercial, institutional and multi-family properties. Single and two family properties are the only remaining sector to complete.

Over the past several years, the city has completed its water conservation plan, the water system audit and demand management plan and the drought management and conservation

plan. The results of the studies support the recommendation of implementing a universal water metering program to reduce water consumption.

In 2011, Urban Systems Ltd. also produced a paper titled “Universal Water Meter Program Implementation Framework” that outlined how to acquire a contractor and install residential water meters, cost estimates, and the time frame.

The study also revealed that the reduction in water consumption would result in a decreased volume of sewage requiring treatment. In turn, the reduced sewage generation would allow the city to delay future upgrades to the treatment plant.

Burch noted that this would decrease the treatment costs for both water produced and sewage treated.

Lake decommissioning set for October CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

The provincial government has decided to decommission the Providence Dam at Marshall Lake near Greenwood by Oct. 15.

John Greaves, an organizer with the Marshall Lake Stewardship Group, pointed out that there is still some time left to let the government know there are people opposed to the draining of the lake.

“There is a lot of local talk about it but I do not know how much the government actually hears,” he said. “I am very upset and I feel that we, the locally concerned people, have been totally ignored by our provincial representatives. Yes I did receive a form letter reply from Minister Steve Thomson (Minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resources Operation or MFLNRO) but that was all.”

Greaves noted that the letter reiterated what previous ministry staff stated, which included how the dam was dangerous.

Despite garnering support from local organizations, surrounding cities and a growing list of names on a petition, Christopher Stevenson, the creator of Marshall Lake Stewardship Group, said they are still trying to increase public awareness and to gain support.

“We’re very upset that they’re proceeding with this,” he said. “We’re looking for letters from various groups about the importance of the lake to them.”

A recent campaign from the group includes photography of the lake, titled with

encouraging words of how to support the maintenance of the lake and surrounding property.

“We’re appealing to everyone we can to try and get support and raise public awareness,” Stevenson said. “Until this point, the government has shown absolutely no interest or any sign that they’re willing to meet up on this. It’s discouraging but it’s not done yet and there are discussions about people camping out at the site.”

Boundary-Similkameen MLA John Slater was unavailable to comment due to a family emergency.

Thomson and the MFLNRO did not respond in time for press.

NDP candidate for the BoundarySimilkameen Marji Basso recently visited Marshall Lake.

“Marshall Lake was brought to my attention in late spring,” she noted. “My personal concerns are several: if the dam was deemed by the province to be unsafe and no longer fit in their category to remain responsible for the liability, why were they negligent ❚ UBCM in doing their regular annual inspections since 2004?”

Basso’s questioned the provincial government’s stance regarding environmental matters in the Boundary area after her visit.

“The local groups need to be applauded by their communities for their selfless dedication and commitment to protect our local environment,” she said.

“Perhaps more importantly, in a democratic country such as ours, they deserve the right to not only to be heard, but to have an open dialogue and collaborate with those we elect, to collectively create viable solutions for a better Boundary and a better B.C.” Stevenson would like to encourage people to sign the petition and to write, call or email local MLA Slater, Minister Steve Thomson or the premier’s office.

“It’s the 11th hour, and if people care about the lake, it’s time to raise your voice,” he concluded.

The Marshall Lake Stewardship Group currently has support from the City of Grand Forks, the City of Greenwood and the Village of Midway, and various local organizations.

For more information or to sign the petition, visit the group’s Facebook page at facebook.com/groups/marshalllake.

Marijuana and infrastructure topics for some of council

City to implement water meters CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

“I think this is something that council has talked about for a number of years and eventually it will be implemented,” she said, noting that the sewage system was installed in the 1970s and has not had any big upgrades since that period.

Mayor Brian Taylor added that the city has applied for gas tax dollars over the last couple of years.

“We’re not allowing ourselves to take away from that emphasis by applying for other things because it’s really important to us to get the water metering in place,” he said.

“The cost of new wells and water supplies costs way more and we need to recognize we’re big water users and we have to learn to cut back.”

Taylor noted that residents do not like the ineffective rules currently in place for using their gardening hoses at certain times.

“Water metering will make it an equal playing field for everybody,” he added. “In general the community does want this and we’re hoping to do it without spending gas money.”

Once the water meters are installed into residential homes, it has been shown in other communities that it would reduce water consumption by 25 per cent. The project itself could take 15 months to two years to complete.

Though the city has been informed there would be no response until December 2012, in a staff report, city staff has advised that the

verdict is worth waiting for.

“Other gas tax monies currently in reserve can be used for other projects should the grant be successful in funding the entire water metering project,” the report stated.

“If the grant is not successful, council may determine through the 2013 budgeting process to utilize other gas tax reserve funds, in an effort to implement the water metering program without burdening the ratepayers with additional capital costs.”

This funding is 100 per cent of the total estimated cost for the universal residential water metering program, which means the city would not have to pay for the program, explained Burch.

Taylor added that Plan B is not clear at this point.

“It’s $1.3 million, and it’s a lot of money,” he said. “Although we have borrowed for infrastructure, we haven’t specifically identified for borrowing for water meters. Taking it out of another revenue or possibly the slag fund, isn’t really a popular thing for us to consider.”

Currently, the City of Grand Forks pumps water to a reservoir located to the east of the city.

Burch noted that if the grant application is denied, it would be up to city council to decide at that point where the funds will come from.

“It will be in place in 2013, but it all depends on how quickly the budget is adopted and to get the funds in place,” she concluded.

Members of Grand Forks city council will be at Victoria, B.C. until Friday, Sept. 28 for the 2012 UBCM conference.

Marijuana decriminalization, infrastructure planning and economic development are some of the topics on the agendas of members of Grand Forks city council for a municipal conference next week.

The Union of British Columbia Municipalities (UBCM) conference is set for Victoria, B.C. from Monday, Sept. 24 to Friday, Sept. 28 and a delegation from Grand Forks will be in attendance.

Mayor Brian Taylor said that he is looking forward to talking to other representatives from small towns at the conference and will be attending discussion in relating to marijuana.

“I particularly like discussions in the small talk forum, where small towns get together, we have a half-day of that,” said Taylor. “I will be taking in the pre-session on Monday, the marijuana (decriminalization) discussion, from 9 a.m. to noon, that’s an important one for me.”

With the city’s asset management plan, Taylor also said that he hopes to network with other communities that have infrastructure repair and replacement plans.

“I’m hoping to make personal contact around infrastructure planning with various small communities, including Lake Country, that was partnering with us previously to contact government about rewarding ‘good behaviour,’” Taylor said, adding that communities, like Grand Forks, who have taken the initiative in regards to infrastructure planning, should be recognized for that.

“We should be rewarded with some of the

first money that goes to fixing these infrastructure projects. We’d like to be a community that sets the example,” Taylor said.

This will be the first UBCM convention for Coun. Bob Kendel and he said it will be a learning experience.

“I’m planning on attending the small talk forum as well as other informative workshops that are there,” Kendel said. “I’m using this as a learning experience so hopefully I’ll be able to make some contacts there and in the future, use those associations to promote the city.”

Coun. Gary Smith, also a first-timer, said that economic development was on his agenda.

“I’ll be attending the session on marijuana in the beginning,” Smith said. “I was going to do the agriculture (study tour) but they were already booked up by the time I got in there. I’ll do the small town talk and I’m really hoping to hook up with other people that are working on economic development in small communities to see what ideas they have.”

Coun. Michael Wirischagin said he would be at the conference and while he didn’t have any specific items on his agenda, he will be taking everything in.

“In regards to any of the hot topic issues, I really don’t have any. I like to go and experience and listen to all the debates on all the policies and try to pick up on what other towns are doing right and things that are working and hopefully bring some of those things back here,” Wirischagin explained. Coun. Cher Wyers is not attending due to family reasons, Coun. Patrick O’Doherty won’t be after attending a conference in Saskatoon in June and Coun. Neil Krog won’t be at Victoria either.

Public breastfeeding not a crime A breastfeeding challenge will take place this week at the Boundary Women’s Centre in Grand Forks (page 22) and the number of participants of the event has grown since the first challenge took place in 2001.

While breastfeeding is a very natural process with many benefits, you can be assured that if the Grand Forks Gazette doesn’t use discretion if publishing a related photo, there will be complaints from readers.

No one is advocating full frontal nudity of course but there are people out there who need to shed the Puritan mindset that breastfeeding in public is an egregious sin.

Yes public nudity is not something that is acceptable – as some spectators at the recent Grand Forks International baseball tournament will attest to – but mothers that breastfeed use nursing covers and are discreet about it.

Mothers are merely providing nourishment to their child, as opposed to running in their birthday suits across the James Donaldson Park outfield, possibly because too much alcohol was consumed.

There are local groups that are advocating for the allowance of public breastfeeding as well, as an initiative was launched earlier in the year to make it easier for mothers to breastfeed at local businesses and it is a movement that is not just taking place in the Boundary either – there are reports that women in Israel are fighting for the right to breastfeed in public as well.

In fact, a mother breastfeeding with a nursing cover doesn’t even constitute nudity if you look at it literally.

The Oxford Dictionary of Current English defines nude as “wearing no clothes” and nudist as “a person who prefers to wear no clothes wherever possible” and that does not pertain to a clothed mother, who is wearing a nursing cover over her baby.

Another initiative was launched in July seeking to make businesses more family friendly, which tied in to the breastfeeding friendly initiative.

Making businesses more friendly for families is good business they said and allowing mothers to feed in public is natural.

Who are we to argue with nature?

YES 21%

World seemingly full of iSheep Apple’s iPhone 5 went on sale on Friday and the hype leading up was hard to avoid.

The initial announcement was made a few week’s ago and ever since, people began placing preorders and judging by various reports, people were lined up in various cities across the world, waiting to be the first to get the newest “it” technological device.

In a related bit of news, rival company Research in Motion (RIM) and its Blackberry devices witnessed an outage that affected customers in Africa, the Middle East and Europe about the same time – mobile email and texting services were affected.

The iPhone and Blackberry devices are said to be going in opposite directions, with the iPhone still considered a topselling smartphone device while forecasts of doom and gloom for the Blackberry, with the latest outage and product delays.

I have to wonder though, how

❚ Yu Speak

KARL YU

much is the projected downfall of RIM and Blackberry fact and how much is media sensationalism?

I own a Blackberry device, a Blackberry Torch, and I have not experienced outages or any other sorts of major problems besides the rare time the tracking cursor gets stuck.

It’s not the lightest smartphone out there but then again, it isn’t the big brick phones of yesteryear either.

It seems to me that all mobile phones are going the way of touchscreen but I like the QWERTY keyboard my cellphone has.

Outages for cellphone and mobile email service are certainly

bad for business but much like high school, it seems that the popular kid is getting all the attention.

While there are certainly those that use and buy the iPhone because they truly like it and its applications, there are those who get it simply because it’s the latest, hippest device.

I have taken pictures with my Blackberry and used it to access Facebook and Twitter remotely when on location for work and there have been no problems.

Other Blackberry users I’ve talked to have also expressed their satisfaction with the device.

Of course, the Blackberry users I queried and myself are only a few and there are probably more out there.

We don’t want the latest gizmo, we’re happy with our Blackberry phones because they serve us well.

Practicality over glitz is sufficient for me.

LETTERS ❚ EDUCATION

Don’t blame it all on cuts to funding Editor: Re: Sept. 15 WEEKENDER Second Opinion column (online) I read with interest Jim Holtz’s column on Sept. 15. Mr. Holtz is probably right, however, let’s not place all the blame on lack of government funding.

Perhaps after looking at School District 51 and answering the following questions, we may better apportion responsibility for declining literacy: 1. A few years ago SD51 launched its four-day school week. One would think, over time, such a drastic change would be evaluated, as to its effect. Where is the evidence that there has been no negative impact by the change?

2. Last year Grand Forks Secondary School’s administration, in its wisdom, decided to convert the library into a weightlifting facility; great for the school’s P.E. program but disastrous for its liberal arts. Offering english, social studies, history, geography, and modern languages without a library is like offering P.E. without a gymnasium, industrial education without shops or science without labs. What were the district administrators who allowed this to happen thinking? Where was the board’s common sense? Where was the hoard of parents demanding that the library be kept open? Where was the concern over the decline of literacy?

3. In the past, the district has hired a number of administrators at all levels that have had very little classroom experience. Boards have valued other attributes over demonstrated teaching ability. Yet these individuals must

implement programs, be aware of best practices and discern teacher competency. Will educational leadership truly be at the forefront in the search for a new superintendent?

4. Each year students are asked to write standardized tests (FSAs) and each year the Fraser Institute uses the results, in part, to rank schools.

Standardized tests have shortcomings and ranking schools is distasteful.

However, is it necessary each year to justify poor results by denigrating the tests and rankings?

Can’t union and board admit improvement is needed?

I’m no fan of the government’s educational policies; however, if our district reflects the provincial situation, blame for declining literacy can be widely apportioned.

❚ WASTE DISPOSAL

Fee hike is ‘garbage’ Editor: Re: City set to raise garbage rates (story, Sept. 19 issue of the Grand Forks Gazette) Gazette) Much about the projected garbage collection process is laudable except the comprehensive price increase.

For those of us who barely use the system now, the increase is punitive.

So far this year, I have put out garbage bags only four times (January, March, May and September) and three bags of recyclables.

I expect my total for the year will be nine bags and for this I shall be dinged $120?

This works out at some $13 a bag and is a slap in the face for those of us who really do reduce, re-use, recycle and compost.

One-size-fits-all costing is harsh economics and is particularly galling for fixed-income seniors, of whom I’m one. I’d prefer to pay $3 per bag for pick up. Administratively, of course, a flat rate is a simplifi-

❚ OPINION cation: Total costs of garbage management divided by a unit cost per household equals $120 regardless of individual best efforts to reduce – it’s patently unfair.

As we pay consumption rates for, let’s say, electricity and natural gas – and will do the same for water once the metering system is employed – It should follow that the same applies to garbage. The difference, of course, is that the gas, electricity and water are all essential consumables, while garbage isn’t. It’s a burdensome byproduct of reckless consumerism.

Incidentally, there is no reason why egg shells, fish bones, seafood shells, and non-meat food scraps, for example, not be used in the garden as they are all excellent sources of soil nutrients.

Introduction of this new regime is, I believe, an admission that education about garbage management has failed and that now we shall all have to bear the cost burden. It raises the question of why even bother? Because I’m imbued with responsibility for management of my own space, with least possible negative impact on my surroundings, this cost increase is a bitter pill.

I have no need of a green bin and declined acceptance of it.

Of special note were the participants from out-of-town, the Shriners and Kelowna’s “Spirit of the Lake” float.

To the City of Grand Forks’ council, two thumbs down for not bothering to participate, other than to hitch a ride on other floats.

Is it too much to expect the city to participate in an event that is trying to grow and promotes Grand Forks and area?

I hope not and I would expect a better showing next year.

Grad requirements to be discussed at Perley tonight The Ministry of Education is asking educators, students, parents, community members, employers and trustees to participate in a dialogue on graduation requirements.

TERESA They are tackling this imREZANSOFF portant issue in order to better meet the needs of all learners. Graduation requirements have changed a number of times over the past 12 years but it is a significantly different process this time around.

Instead of the Ministry of Education consulting on a draft plan, they are going out with a set of five questions.

From the responses to those questions they will develop proposed directions for graduation.

There are some assumptions that have been made by the ministry. One, the grad program will stay solid on the basics and development of key competencies.

There will continue to be rigorous provincial-level student assessment, performance standards and reporting. Last, there will be flexibility and choice embedded in the program.

It is important to remember that the grad program, which encompasses grades 10 to 12, is the culmination of all the years a student is in school.

There are many elements that combine to support those final years. It begins with a strong early years program and early intervention, if required. It includes a vision of what the educated citizen looks like.

That descriptor contains attributes, such as being thoughtful, able to think critically, creative, flexible and skilled, able to contribute to society and co-operative and principled – the full description can be found on the school district website (www. sd51.bc.ca) Currently, curriculum is being closely examined to determine how it can best fit with the BC Education Plan of personalizing learning for students, providing for quality teaching and learning, flexibility and choice, continued high standards and allowing for learning empowered by technology.

It is expected that curriculum change will be quite significant and will enable learners and teachers to better meet individual needs and interests.

Objectives are also in place to guide the work of the Ministry of Education for Aboriginal students in B.C. Among others, they include, an increased Aboriginal voice within the education system and knowledge of Aboriginal language, culture and history for all students.

It is all of these elements and more that will contribute to the success of all learners. Please consider joining us tonight (Sept.

26) at 7 p.m. at Perley Elementary School for a facilitated conversation on what the future graduation requirements will look like.

There will be a set of five key questions posed and they too can be found on the school district website. The feedback solicited will be collected to form part of a regional report.

The province has been divided into six regions, with an assigned educational leader to organize multiple consultation sessions in each region in September and October.

Over a dozen partner groups have been invited to provincial planning meetings in August and November to further inform directions. It is expected that proposed directions for graduation will be back out for feedback in December.

If you are unable to participate in this meeting in person, feedback can be provided electronically by answering the questions online.

Visit the school district website www.sd51.bc.ca to find the link that will direct you to the questions.

– Teresa Rezansoff is chair for SD51’s board of education

We would also like to acknowledge and thank the RCMP and the BC Ambulance Service for their help in assuring that the neighbours and first responders were safe during the incident.

We know that without the good work of the Christina Lake Fire Department and the BC Forest Service that we could have lost all the homes in Fife and the fire could have threatened other neighbourhoods as well.

It is a credit to Fire Chief Ken Gresley-Jones and the other fire fighters that our neighbourhood remains intact and we are all safe in our homes.

We are deeply, deeply grateful for your help.

Expert Sheila Dobie Director Kettle Valley Food Co-op

Q.

Who is the Kettle Valley Food Co-op and how do they operate?

A Co-op is about its membership and their common purpose and values that they work with to accomplish their goals. For the KVFC we are a growing membership over 170 strong. In essence the KVFC is a liaison for its member producers who supply and sell our products and member consumers who buy them; it holds a vision of a sustainable, regional food economy. This makes for an interesting set of diverse priorities. For a very young business, we continue to meet challenges with creativity and grace. I am proud to be a Director of this innovative project.

A.

The “How we operate” question is summed up with on-line ordering system where we have our consumer members placing orders, which our producer members then Àll, each week.

Visit the website www.kettlevalleyfoodcoop. org and choose the Shop tab at the top and see our product list- it changes weekly so look often.

You can check it out without being a member.

When you sign up as a member – which you do on the same site as the ordering– you can order immediately (if the order cycle is active) and pay the membership with the Àrst order. Our membership is $50- one time fee.

In addition to the product list on-line we also do a bulk order of the classic pantry food items, every second month. This supplies us with the food that we cannot or currently are not yet growing or producing locally such as oils, nuts, dried fruit, sugar, spices, vinegars, etc. Our supplier is Organic Matters in Nelson.

Stop by and visit us at our Distribution Centre.

This is in the back of the new Pedallers’ Place on Market Ave. – at the old Contact Photo building.

We are there every Thursday from 2:00pm to 6:00 pm. Come and meet some of the members – all of us are volunteers, slowly building a thriving local food economy in the Boundary.

Conserve to Preserve – Every Action has a Reaction From caulking windows to upgrading furnaces,

Energy efficiency works for all budgets Despite having no prior handyman skills and a limited knowledge of energy efficiency, Laura Lee Schultz and Jacqueline Gullion were determined to renovate their depression era house. So they picked up their hammers and caulking gun and got to work.

With help from family, friends and YouTube, they learned how to insulate properly and also how to make other energy efficiency upgrades. Some small, and with help from professionals, some big. Like the furnace.

“It was pretty obvious that the furnace had to go. It was amazingly old and inefficient,” said Schultz. So they took the plunge and had it replaced with an ENERGY STAR® high-efficiency model. They had the original ducting system replaced too for even better efficiency.

The ladies have proven that you don’t have to spend a lot to save a lot.

“For less than $50 on a tube of window caulk, a roll of weatherstripping and a window film kit, you can significantly change the comfort of your home,” says Gullion.

And they’ve got proof. Before making improvements, an energy advisor rated the house at 48 out of 100 on the EnerGuide® efficiency scale (a standard measure of a home’s energy performance).

Now it’s up to 64.

And even though they switched out the electric range to a gas model, (“We just like cooking with gas,” quips Gullion.) the natural gas consumption has dropped by 26 per cent since making all the energy efficiency improvements.

As for future improvements, they hope to replace the windows. For now, they’re enjoying their home and practicing conservation. Like hanging their clothes out on the line, taking shorter showers and programming the thermostat to a comfortable, but efficient 20° Celsius when home.

If you’re considering making energy efficiency improvements like Schultz and Gullion, FortisBC has a number of rebate offers, how-to advice, and quick tips to help make it easier and economical.

If you currently heat your home with oil, switching to cleaner burning natural gas makes sense. And better yet, the utility offers a $1,000 rebate when you convert your oil heating system to natural gas.

Already have a gas furnace or boiler? If it’s more than 15 years old considering upgrading it to a qualifying high-efficiency model for an $800 rebate. But hurry, only 2,000 rebates are available.

And while upgrading the heating system consider your water heater too. Next to heating your home, heating water is the biggest consumer of energy in your house. FortisBC offers rebates from $200 to $1,000 when you install a high-efficiency natural gas water heater.

Don’t forget the province’s LiveSmart BC Efficiency Incentive Program.

Any rebates you qualify for can be combined with FortisBC’s natural gas offers.

And finally, if water heater and furnace upgrades aren’t in your budget this winter, FortisBC’s website offers how-to videos such as how to install a low-flow showerhead, or replace a furnace filter, conservation tips and information on the benefits of natural gas.

The Corporation of the City of Grand Forks

Green Bin - Kitchen Waste Program

Launches Oct. 1!

City of Grand Forks residents are currently receiving from the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary, an 80 litre green bin and a 7-litre kitchen bucket. These bins are visible symbols that recognize that not all the stuff that has been thrown into garbage cans should be buried in the landfill.

Roughly 40 per cent of the material in our garbage cans is food waste that can be composted.

For complete details on this program, please refer to the city’s website www.city.grandforks.bc.ca or the Regional District’s website at www.rdkb.com; or check out the next City Newsletter due to come out in the Sept. 28, 2012 advertiser.

“We’ “We’re doing something comp completely different with y your waste” DON’T TRY THIS IN YOUR BACKYARD We know that the most cost-effective way to keep ‘organic’ material out of the landfill is to have residents compost in their backyards.

However, we know that not everyone has the space or time to do this. We also know that there are materials that we want to keep out of the landfill that are problematic in your backyard composter.

Dairy, meat and even cooked foods can attract animals to your backyard bin. This material can be composted safer in the compost piles at the Grand Forks Landfill.

Animal waste and disposable diapers are also accepted in the Green Bin program. The concern with animal waste is that the material may contain pathogens. B.C. composting regulations require all pathogen containing materials to be ‘cooked’ at over 55 degrees Celsius for 14 days to kill these pathogens. The RDKB’s composting process achieves this.

HOW DOES IT WORK? Each residence has been provided with a 7-litre Kitchen Bucket and an 80-litre Green Bin. • Keep the Kitchen Bucket handy.

• Fill the Kitchen Bucket with food scraps.

• Empty the Bucket into the larger Green Bin. • Roll the Green Bin out to the curb on collection day.

THAT’S IT? Some residents appreciate having a clean bin. Some options for reducing the ‘yuck’ are: • Try reducing the amount of ‘runny’ materials. Cut back on the gravy’s, sauces and other fluids that you put in the Green Bin. • Rinse your Green Bin and Kitchen Bucket after each use.

• Line your Kitchen Bucket or Green Bin with paper bags. Bag liners are available at most Grand Forks Retailers.

• Try lining the bottom of the bin with folded newspaper or paper bags. Check out the RDKB website for tips on folding newspaper to make a Kitchen Bucket liner.

WHAT GOES IN THE GREEN BIN? The material that is targeted in the Green Bin collection program is the ‘organic’ material that has been previously tossed into the garbage. This includes all manner of kitchen scraps, paper towels, paper tissue, leftovers, fruit pits, and yes, even kitty litter, dog poop and disposable diapers! (Please see list below).

For the health protection of collection drivers, we require that messy material like dog poop, kitty litter and diapers be contained in paper bags.

CAN I USE THE GREEN BIN FOR LAWN AND GARDEN WASTE? No. The best way to process leaves and grass is to compost these materials in your own backyard. If you would like to get started with a backyard composter, call the RDKB @ 1.800.355.7352 for advice on how to make it work.

Residents of the City also receive a monthly Yard and Garden waste collection service.

Visit the City’s website to view the schedule for your neighbourhood.

Yard and Garden waste can also be brought to the Grand Forks Landfill. Tipping fees apply. Check out what is accepted and how to sort it at www.rdkb.com. or call 1.800.355.7352.

LITERACY

CBAL helps hundreds of adult literacy learners in the region COLUMBIA BASIN ALLIANCE FOR LITERACY Submitted

Every year throughout the Columbia Basin and Boundary regions, hundreds of our citizens work with literacy instructors and tutors to improve their reading, writing, math, english language and computer skills.

These adults are seeking out CBAL (the Columbia Basin and Boundary, not-for-profit literacy organization) programs to improve their skills, knowledge and ability so they can participate more fully in their lives and communities. The program benefits and the learners’ commitment are having a positive impact in towns and villages in the regions.

“We work closely with libraries, schools, colleges, businesses, and other community partners to develop, promote and deliver adult literacy and learning services,” said Ali Wassing, CBAL executive director. “The Canadian Council on Learning reported that 60 per cent of Canadians do not have the necessary literacy skills to manage their health adequately. We know the health benefits individuals and communities gain when a commitment is made to life-long learning.”

The Adult Literacy and Life Skills international survey found approximately 40 per cent of Canadians need greater knowledge and skills to effectively find and use basic written information for daily work and living tasks.

“Research shows us the need for increased adult literacy,” says Betty Knight, CBAL regional program manager, East Kootenay. “We see the effects on individuals, families and communities, and are committed to helping people change their lives through small group classes, one-toone tutoring and services at our centres.”

“Our learners gain much-needed skills in reading, writ-

ing and speaking english,” said Linda Steward, Creston community literacy co-ordinator. “They also find friendship and emotional support to combat the isolation immigrants experience. It is so rewarding to see them start with little or no english and, within a few years, be working, joining community organizations and settling into a happy full life in our valley.”

Learners expressing their appreciation said: “Your teacher is very good teacher. I learn lots how to speak, to write and to read english.”

“The ESL class helps me to practice my english and my tutor helps me with many things in my life and I have the conversations with her.”

Selkirk College works with CBAL and the Kootenay Family Place in Castlegar to bring high school upgrading courses to parents.

“This program is such a pleasure to be part of,” said Allison Alder, chair, School of Academic Upgrading and

Development, Selkirk College. “While instructors help parents brush up on math, learn a new biology concept or polish their writing skills, they can relax knowing their children are cared for nearby. Bringing learning opportunities to people, where and when they are comfortable, is community learning at its finest.”

“The program gave me an opportunity to complete my schooling by providing excellent childcare, career counseling and an awesome tutor. But most importantly, I received positive encouragement to follow through with my career plans,” said Charity Barbour, a past adult basic education (ABE) program participant.

In Cranbrook, CBAL partners with College of the Rockies to offer the Young Parent Education Program.

Young parents, who face multiple barriers, can complete their high school education, and focus on learning new life, work and parenting skills.

“Learners make new and sustaining friendships, support each other, and, with improved self-esteem, are empowered to move on to vocational, academic or employment opportunities when they graduate,” said Katherine Hough, Cranbrook community literacy co-ordinator.

There are a number of literacy statistics affecting our communities. Twenty-six-per-cent of Canadians with the lowest literacy skill levels are unemployed and 80 per cent of those with low literacy skills earn less than $27,000 a year, while 33 per cent of employers report challenges because some staff need better literacy skills.

On Wednesday, Oct. 10, support literacy in your community by taking part in Black Press and CBAL’s Reach-AReader campaign. Buy your local newspaper from a volunteer who will be out in the town. ALL proceeds raised will go to support literacy programs in your community.

By learning together, we will grow strong together.

Reminiscences

by Cassandra Chin Born during the cold winter months in Tramping Lake, Sask. in 1933, Mary Aremel Anderson nee Senger is the eldest of 12 children.

Anderson recalled being told the tale of her birth, where her parents moved into town from their farm because the doctor was in town.

“It was very rural and quite a distance, but the doctor got called out to a farm far away,” she said. “Then there was a blizzard so he couldn’t get back and my dad had to deliver me. When I think about it, oh poor mom and dad.”

When Anderson was five, her family moved from Trampling Lake to Saskatoon, Sask. Life during the early 1930s and 40s were difficult and her father moved to British Columbia to work in Trail.

“When he had enough money he sent for us,” she

of

their home in 1965, where she still resides. Bob’s Meat Market, located behind the family home, was where the family spent many hours cutting up meat for the community.

Bob’s Meat Market used to be located at Ike’s, which is now Flexus, and in downtown Grand Forks where Curves used to be.

It was in the early 1980s when work became hard and insurance and interest rates rose to 23 per cent for businesses that they moved back to their shop on their property.

Pointing to her work-worn hands, Anderson’s fingers on her right hand reveal hours of hard work and time spent working behind the counter at the family’s meat shop.

“It’s from pulling thousands and thousands of rolls of tape for packaging the meat,” she chuckled. “You can imagine the amount of packages I’ve taped over the years. The doctors always say, ‘Are you sure it doesn’t hurt?’ and it never has.

I’m guessing it was from the repetition.”

Mornings began early when Bob worked up in Phoenix while their house was being built. Bob would return from his shift work and come back to build the meat shop before going back to work.

As her husband was busy running to and from work, Anderson would be running from the meat shop and maintaining her garden. Depending on the season, she would be planting or weeding constantly.

Their farm itself had several cows at a time, with more when their meat shop was doing well.

The cows would be bought from mom and dad Doan (Bob’s mother and step-father), where the cows would be herded up to Snowball Creek in the spring and return for winter.

Anderson also remembers time spent running around to collect her three children.

“There was a bus service for the schools but they were into everything at school from sports to other clubs. It was a merry-go-round,” she said. “You know how most people don’t want their kids to grow up and drive? When my oldest son, John, turned 16 he was the guy. I sent him to pick up Sherry and David, and for errands.”

In their various activities, John happened to be a really good goalie in midget hockey and ended up being a Border Bruins goalie when the team started up, Anderson stated.

“We were very involved with Border Bruins,” she said. “We used to drive the players around in our two big Buicks and drive them to Nelson or Rossland or where ever the games were.”

Anderson spent many nights helping out at the ticket booth or raising money for the Bruins through various auctions. Along with hockey, she spent many hours with the Girl Guides, the wildlife club, the now defunct Black Powder Club, Boundary Stock Horse Association, and the girl’s softball team.

“We sponsored a lot of teams and many, many other organizations,” she chuckled. “When you’re in

Anderson with her husband Bob on their wedding day in 1954 said. “We moved to Rutland, B.C. via train and we went to school there. I grew up in Rutland, Kelowna and Penticton area and that’s where I met Bob, my husband.”

In 1954, the new bride moved to Grand Forks.

“Don’t ever ask me to move back to the Okanagan,” she scolded. “I love Grand Forks and I love this valley. I just couldn’t ask for anything better.”

From the gushing rivers to available hiking trails and sandy beaches by the shoreline, Anderson instantly fell in love with the valley when she moved here with Bob. “I was more outdoorsy than anything else. I was a bit of a tomboy,” she laughed. “We hiked and we fished and we hunted, well, I was too chicken to shoot anything aside from grouse. I couldn’t shoot deer or rabbits or anything like that because you look at them and you just can’t. Grouse was OK though, I could shoot a grouse.”

During those times, she and her husband would go out once every two weeks because they couldn’t afford any more than that.

“You went to watch a movie or go to the bar,” she said. “We kept in touch with everybody and when you have a business you get to know everybody because it’s not that big of a town.”

It wasn’t long before the Anderson’s completed

Due to their busy hours, Anderson pointed out that her daughter learned how to cook and help out in the kitchen when she was a child, either by getting their meals started or completing the whole dinner by herself.

“A lot of times we’d be out there going crazy before you hurry and make supper because there might be more meat to cut or someone was coming,” she added. “It was always ‘Go pick more beans’ or ‘get more corn’ but it was enjoyable and everybody pitched in and did the dishes.”

With space for eight chairs, the table never seemed big enough to fit the family and its visitors.

“I often think, ‘how did we do as much as we did?’” she wondered. “We got into all kinds of things with the horses and different organizations and the sports, and hiking and camping with our kids when they were little.”

Grand Forks itself has changed little compared to other places, Anderson noted.

“I think that’s one of the main things that I like,” she said. “Whenever I hear people say, ‘I know where Osoyoos is and I know where Trail is, but I don’t know where Grand Forks is,’ I think you have to drive through it to get there. But at the same time I like that it’s a well-kept secret.”

Fun Facts about Children A 3-year old Boy’s voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant.

On average, a 4-year-old child asks 437 questions a day.

Children’s kneecaps only start to turn bony at 3 years of age, until that they are made of cartilage.

A baby is born every seven seconds.

Babies are born with very poor vision but can recognize their mothers almost right away.

Babies and toddlers are, pound for pound, stronger than oxen. This is especially true of their legs.

Success By 6 supports parents and communities in creating healthy, nurturing environments for our youngest children, so that by age 6, they are physically, socially, and emotionally ready to succeed in school. The goal of Success By 6 is to better the lives of our Boundary area children in our families and enhancing our communities.

Success by 6® is a locally based initiative in partnership with:

Water metering info received Council received and voted to accept reports from staff regarding the development of a succession plan and on data and costing for water meter installation.

“We’re asking our staff to prepare data and costing for a council decision to move forward on water metering,” said Grand Forks Mayor Brian Taylor. “I’m assuming if we would’ve heard, we would know at this point if we have funding from gas tax but regardless of whether that has come through, we need to go to that stage of referring it and scheduling it for budget discussions in the 2013/2017 five-year financial plan.”

All voted in favour of accepting the report except for Wirischagin, who said he voted against because he has always been against water metering.

For more, see page 1 and 3 of the Gazette.

Canada/U.S. border meeting in Grand Forks?

Taylor talked about the possibility of Grand Forks hosting a meeting in regards to the Canada/U.S. border.

Taylor had referenced border services during a speech on Canada Day and cited letters in The Gazette from residents expressing concern about

treatment by border guards – he had a meeting with representatives from the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) recently.

The CBSA asked Taylor if he would see if other mayors and regional chairs would like to get together to discuss border issues and if that were to happen, CBSA would see if its counterparts from the United States would take part as well.

“I see it as economic development. I think that what we have is a situation where we’re not going to change the behaviour habits of seniors, who like to take a trip or travel for the day but can we not tap into the potential economy across the border and get more of them to come up this way?” Taylor asked, adding that he would like to pursue it as a regional and city initiative.

Time and date were not discussed.

Check out new-look City Park Coun. Patrick O’Doherty invited members of council, the press and the public to take a look at City Park in light of renovations.

“The pumphouse and landscaping has been done and also, a new beach,” O’Doherty said, adding that he would like to put forward a motion for the drafting of a letter to the city work’s yard thanking and complimenting them for the work done.

Coun. Michael Wirischagin seconded and the motion passed.

RECALL AND INITIATIVE ACT

This notice is published pursuant to section 4 of the Recall and Initiative Act. Approval in principle has been granted on an application for an initiative petition. The petition will be issued to proponent Dana Larsen on Monday, November 19, 2012 and signature sheets must be submitted to the Chief Electoral Officer by Monday, February 18, 2013.

The Title of the Initiative is: An initiative to amend the Police Act. Summary of Initiative: The initiative draft Bill entitled, “Sensible Policing Act” proposes to amend the Police Act to no longer use provincial police resources on the enforcement of current laws in relation to simple possession and use of cannabis by adults. The draft law would prohibit the use of provincial police resources for this purpose, would require police to report in detail to the Minister of Justice any actual use of resources for this purpose and why it was necessary, and require the Minister to publish that report. The Bill also proposes that the Province would call upon the Federal Government to repeal the federal prohibition on cannabis, or give British Columbia an exemption, such that British Columbia is able to tax and regulate cannabis similar to the regulation of alcohol and tobacco. As well it proposes that British Columbia shall establish a Provincial Commission to study the means and requirements necessary for the province to establish a legal and regulated model for the production and use of cannabis by adults. Last, the Bill would make non-lawful possession and use of cannabis by minors an offence similar to possession and use of alcohol.

COMMUNITY ❚ POETRY

Grand Forks’ Hynes takes top honours in poetry contest KARL YU Gazette Editor

A Grand Forks resident took top honours in a poetry contest that honours poet Robert Service.

Terry Hynes’ The Greenhorn was selected as the winner of Up Here magazine’s 2012 Robert Service Poetry Contest; he pocketed $750 as a result.

Hynes said that Service, who is often referred to as The Bard of the Yukon, is one of his favourite poets and authors and someone he models himself after.

“I’ve read most of his stuff, I have most of his books so I had written a number of poems over the years, most of them a long time ago and never published – I did it for my own use,” Hynes explained.

The Greenhorn was one such work and Hynes said he had to cut it down from the original 1,000 words. He also said that he received notification that he was shortlisted but was still surprised to see that he took first place.

“Last month (August), they contacted me and asked for photos, a bio and stuff like that – basically all the shortlisted people were doing this and then the publication date was Sept. 1 and I assumed that the winner would’ve been notified before the publication date so I never

heard anything and waited and waited for my mail and (the first week of September) it came,” he said.

Hynes opened up the magazine to feelings of trepidation and was surprised to see not only did he take top spot with The Greenhorn but another poem he submitted, Lake LeBarge Revisited, received an honourable mention.

There were a few things that inspired Hynes’ The Greenhorn but Service’s works were the main catalyst.

“The inspiration was in some parts, an old joke I heard years ago but in other parts it was Service himself: The Ballad of Blasphemous Bill, The Shooting of Dan McGrew, The Cremation of Sam McGee, a lot his poems have a little bit of a twist to them, so that’s what I tried to put into The Greenhorn in the ending there,” said Hynes.

He said that there was more of a twist in the longer version but his submission still retained that even though he had to shorten it for publication.

“If you never read the longer version obviously the short version worked because it got me into first place,” Hynes quipped.

To read his poem, see the Grand Forks Gazette’s website.

Imperial Hotel under new management

at

CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

The Imperial Motel is now under the ownership of Andrew and Trish Smith who purchased the motel last November, when they saw the opportunity it presented.

“We owned a motel before in Powell River but it was half the size,” explained Andrew. They found out about the motel through Syber Realty, which deals with the realty of business, hotels, motels, industrial and other facilities.

Since they purchased the motel, they have almost finished painting the exterior of the building, though the rooms have been completed.

“It’s been a lot of work, but business has been good this summer,” he added. “One of the things that we offer is free long distance, so that all these one-day travelers can call home for free.”

Trish pointed out that the kitchens have been completely redone with new cabinets and appliances.

“We’ve also replaced sinks and toilets, all the linens, shower curtains and lampshades,” she said. “We hope that by next spring we can get the deck completely redone as well and have picnic tables set up on top.”

Future projects also include redoing all the floors and adding more kitchens to a few more rooms. There are currently six rooms that have a kitchen installed.

Starting November, they will be offering continental breakfast.

The Grand Forks Border Bruins are currently on a three-game slide.

While being competitive, the team dropped a home game to the Nelson Leafs 2-1 on Sept. 20, followed by a 4-1 home loss to the Creston Valley Thunder Cats on Sept. 21.

The Border Bruins also suffered a 4-2 loss in Spokane to the Braves on Sept. 23.

In the game against Creston Valley, the Border Bruins competed all game and two late goals – an empty-netter and a shorthanded goal – made the game seem a little more lopsided than it actually was.

“It was a 2-1 game going down to the last minute, the same thing against Nelson,” explained Nick Deschenes, the Border Bruins’ head

Through the point system, the top five competitors by the end of August are able to qualify for the Olympia.

“It was great and very tough with very good physiques there,” Clark said.

“This is the same event I missed by onepoint last year.”

Last year was Clark’s first time competing in the national competition.

“Everything worked very well,” she said. “I was able to put some size on my shoulders, like we had planned, and my (carbohydrates) up prior to the show was bang on so I looked full and cut.

“We just have to tweak a few things, as far as I would like to put a little bit more size on my shoulders and just do more abs and get that full set of six-pack abs in, which is always tough. Other than that, we’ll keep working on what we have.”

Clark is one of 70 active women around the world who hold a pro card.

Her next competition will be the Toronto Pro Supershow next year in June.

coach after the game vs. the Thunder Cats.

“We’re right in these games and this is early and it’s a process, we probably have the youngest team in the league right now, so we’re happy with where we are. We’re going to learn how to lose and turn it around and learn how to win here,” he said.

Forward Dakota Kittle scored the Border Bruins’ lone goal against Creston Valley on the power play.

“It was a five-on-three in the second period. I had a nice pass across from the defenceman Nathan Cory and all I really had to do was put my head down and take a shot and it just went in,” Kittle explained.

The Border Bruins have three home games this week: Thursday vs. the Castlegar Rebels, Friday against Spokane and Sunday afternoon, the North Okanagan Knights.

❚ REC REPORT

Feel alive with a dive at the pool LILLY BRYANT Grand Forks Recreation

Recreational scuba diving grew out of related activities, such as snorkeling and underwater hunting.

For a long time, recreational underwater excursions were limited by the amount of breath that could be held. The invention of the aqualung in 1943 and the wetsuit in 1952 brought the sport closer to being a reality for people who dreamed of going underwater.

Its development over subsequent years led to a revolution in recreational diving. However, for much of the 1950s and early 1960s, recreational scuba diving was a sport limited to those who were able to afford or make their own kit and prepared to undergo intensive training to use it.

Today, kids can enjoy the sport using specialized equipment designed just for the kids. Serpent Aquatics provides scuba lessons for kids and adults once a month at the Grand Forks Aquatic Centre.

The Scuba stars program provides an opportunity to get the feel of floating at the surface of the water. Participants do not go beneath the surface during this program. Once they have completed the Stars program and are eight years old, they can register for the Padi Seal Team program. This is a 5-dive program that gets you beneath the surface of the water using the specialized equipment.

Adults can now take part in a discovery pro-

gram here at the aquatic centre. Sheldon will be here on Sunday, Oct. 21. Deadline to register for the first fall Scuba session will be Monday, Oct.15. *** Aquatic exercise is a low-impact activity that takes the pressure off your bones, joint and muscles. Most of the exercises come off a full body workout, which makes you burn a large amount of calories.

Aquafit reduces your body weight 25 per cent, which helps reduce the impact on your body. If you are starting out with a fitness program or recovering from injuries, Aquafit classes are great to get you going and back into shape.

The aquatic centre offers morning classes Monday through Friday.

The fall Aquafit to the Max evening program will be held on Monday and Wednesdays from 6 to 7 p.m. Pre-registration is required by Tuesday, Oct. 9. *** Take advantage of the new public skating session on Saturday evenings from 5 to 6:30 p.m.

This is a great way to spend some quality time with the family and to get a little extra ice time for the upcoming hockey and skating season.

FREE WORKSHOP

It has been a busy summer at the HĂ&#x153;MĂ&#x153;H S k y c l i ff e M o n CONTRIBUTED astery and Life Science Centre in Westbridge, where the movement of Clear Mind Buddhism is continually stirring and awakening life.

One very special activity this summer has been Wisdom Master Maticintin, our founder and abbot, building Stupas with small groups of HĂ&#x153;MĂ&#x153;H initiates. These are students who have come from all over North America to spend a weekend participating in this life-changing experience. A Stupa is a sacred monument where the Teachings of an enlightened Master, or Buddha, are stored. A Stupa is not a place of worship. Rather, it is a sacred monument dedicated to the divine consciousness that exists inherently in every sentient being. A Stupa serves to remind humanity of the great spiritual pioneers, to inspire people to follow its example and to enliven oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personal divinity, which leads to a greater sense of ease, joy and good health. Wisdom Master Maticintin has said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;To build a Stupa with dedicated awareness, for the upliftment of all sentient life, is considered an act of great spiritual merit.â&#x20AC;?

One of the Stupas built this summer at Skycliffe is called The Stupa of Reflection (as within, so without). This Stupa helps remind us that whatever is within our minds, meaning our ideas, attitudes, likes, and dislikes, literally creates the life we live. Said another way, â&#x20AC;&#x153;How you see life is how you live life.â&#x20AC;? It is a simple Buddhist principle, but not so easy to live, because it takes considerable awareness to see how everything we experience is a reflection, or likeness, of what is carried in mind.

Nor can this principle be discarded as an esoteric secret teaching. Physics shows us how this operates in the physical world with Newtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s third law that states that whenever an action is taken, there will be an equal and opposite reaction. In other words, the universe operates like a mirror reflecting back to us whatever is put out.

There are a number of cultural aphorisms that capture the presence of this teaching too such as, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whatever you put out comes back to you,â&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;Look whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s calling the kettle black.â&#x20AC;? But in order to truly integrate this teaching into our lives, we must be mindful of what we are putting out and what is occurring in our environment, and see the connection. There must be the willingness to take responsibility for the quality of the life we are creating.

We invite you to attend the Grand Forks Satsang (spiritual discussion group), which meets the first Tuesday evening of every month at the Grand Forks and District Public Library meeting room from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. Also, you are very welcome to drop by Skycliffe and enjoy a couple hours of quiet time on the grounds. The HĂ&#x153;MĂ&#x153;H Monastery is open to visitors on Sundays and they are invited to attend the Sunday service at 10:45 a.m. After the service, visitors are welcome to take a self-guided tour of the monastery grounds, including the Forest Temple of Enlightenment, the Golden Healing Stupa and Red-Rock Stupas, Amitabha Vista, and the River Walk, as well as to make use of spiritual training tools, such as, the Edge Walk, the Labyrinth, the Karma Shedding Pit, and the Whirling Circle.

For directions to Skycliffe, as well as, information email Reservations@HUMUH.org or call 1-800-336-6015.

And with the workforce aging – the average age of a Registered Psychiatric Nurse in BC is 47 years – the number of retirees from the profession is exceeding the number of graduates. Entry-level earnings start at $30.79/hour to $40.42/hour.

Train Locally – The only program of its kind in BC, students can learn within their local communities via distance education, local and/or regional clinical placements, and some regional classroom delivery.

This 23 month program is accredited by the College of Registered Psychiatric Nurses of BC (CRPNBC).

Government student loans, Employment & Labour Market Services (ELMS), band funding & other financing options available to qualified applicants.
