Talking tires as the winter weather looms C A R O LYN G R AN T bulletin@cyberlink.ca

With the first signs of winter definitely in the air, it’s time for the great fall debate — should I purchase snow tires or not? Should I try to get another year out of my tires or should I get new ones?

And then there’s that sign on the way out of town, “Use Winter Tires or Carry Chains Beyond This Point’.” A common question is — does this mean you have to use

snow tires? And if you don’t, will your insurance cover you if there’s an accident? The answer to both questions is yes and no.

Snow tires are not mandatory in B.C. according to the RCMP, but you could be ticketed, or sent back home, for not having them in any of the zones across the province with signs like the one mentioned above.

AMAZING PANORAMIC ROCKY MOUNTAIN VIEWS!

The accident reportedly occurred about eight kilometres from Kimberley in the Meadowbrook area. Southeast Traffic Services and the Kimberley RCMP closed the highway for several hours to investigate.

Meanwhile weather conditions may be a contributing factor in a Roger’s Pass accident that took the life of a 12 year old boy

A 12-year-old boy riding in the truck was pronounced dead at the scene. Four others were seriously injured.

Six dancers from Kimberley, Cranbrook and Canal Flats will soon be en route for Miami, Florida, leaving Tuesday. They will be accompanied by their teacher Liela Cooper as well as their moms and one very brave dad. Based on their excellent dance exam marks given by the British Association of Teachers of Dance during the spring exams session, these your ladies were nominated by the examiner to participate in a North American Scholarship Competition. The competition consists of a written theory paper, a technique competition as well as a Highland solo choreography event. Dancers will come from all over Canada and the U.S. for this prestigious event. Following the competition next Friday, all will board “The Majesty of the Seas” and cruise the Caribbean for three days, making stops in Nassau and Cococay. There will be Highland workshops and lectures each morning with afternoon fun events planned for the dancers in the afternoon. It’s sure to be a wonderful warm and sunny adventure for all dancers. A portion of their expenses was sponsored by the Kimberley Cranbrook Highland Dance Association. Above, left to right: Mariah Whitlock, Kayte Oscarson, Jordyn Walker, Hannah Boulton, Kasey Hawkins, Monika Juras.

On the week of October 22-26, the Ktunaxa Nation Council will be moving locations to the new Ktunaxa Government Building located at 220 Cranbrook St. N. (Central School Building).

IIO to take over Creston investigation Courtesy Independent Investigations Office

The Independent Investigations Office (IIO) confirms that it will investigate an officer-involved incident that took place in Creston on Oct. 6, 2012.

At approximately 1 a.m., Creston RCMP attended a local business in response to a complaint. While police were dealing with the situation, an adult male became involved and a physical altercation ensued. This resulted in the male sustaining injuries to his face and ribs. He was transported to a medical facility and was provided medical care.

The IIO was notified and after an initial assessment of the information, determined that the injuries did not fall within the statutory definition of “serious harm” and jurisdiction was not asserted. As such, the RCMP asked the Delta Police Department to conduct an external investigation.

Subsequent to the initial notification, the IIO received additional information related to the incident and to the level of medical intervention that the affected person required.

After careful consideration of this information, the IIO’s Chief Civilian Director Richard Rosenthal decided it was in the public interest to assert ju-

risdiction regardless of the ultimate determination of the level of injury.

The IIO will assume control of the investigation into the actions of the RCMP officer, while the Delta Police Department will conduct a concurrent investigation into any matters related to the affected person. The IIO acknowledges the extensive work completed by the Delta Police Department in the initial stages of this investigation.

The IIO and the involved police service (RCMP Creston) are expected to work co-operatively within the terms agreed upon in the Memorandum of Understanding that was signed by the Chief Civilian Director and B.C.’s police services in July 2012.

The MOU provides for those circumstances where concurrent investigations are underway.

Once the IIO investigation is completed, the Chief Civilian Director will determine if he believes an offence may have taken place and if so, will make a report to Crown counsel. As set by the Chief Civilian Director, the IIO’s goals are to conduct fair, unbiased, timely, thorough and competent investigations and ensure transparency through public reporting.

Snow tire debate Continued from page 1

And, if there is an incident and the police decide it was caused by improper tires, you could be ticketed.

The larger issue is insurance. The Bulletin asked local insurance agent David Bellm to provide some clarity on insurance coverage and snow tires.

Winter tires are not mandatory, Bellm says, but ICBC recommends their use in snowy conditions, particularly if you live in an area where you would normally expect a lot of snow.

IF you don’t have snow tires on your car, you are not ineligible to file a claim if you have an accident in one of these zones where the signs say you must use snow tires. Nor will you automatically be assumed at fault for a crash if you don’t have winter tires.

But there’s a catch. Drivers are always responsible for ensuring their vehicles are properly equipped for

road conditions, just like ensuring your wipers and headlamps are working well on dark and rainy nights. If you get in a crash where winter tires could have helped, it may be a deciding factor in determining whether or how much you are at-fault.

ICBC advises that winter tires are particularly recommended in areas of B.C. that experience substantial snowfall because they deliver better snow and ice performance. The tread designs on winter tires provide much better traction for driving in winter road conditions. Please visit icbc. com for more information a n d tips on buying winter tires and driving in poor conditions.

Winter tires alone are not enough – drivers need to make smart driving decisions and adjust their driving to the road conditions. In winter weather, drivers should allow more time for travelling and most importantly, slow down and keep your distance from other vehicles so you can see more of the road.

The NDP critic for Tourism, Arts and Gaming toured the East Kootenay this past week, stopping in Cranbrook for the Tourism Industry Conference and Annual General Meeting presented by Kootenay Rockies Tourism.

Vancouver-West End MLA Spencer Chandra Herbert is no stranger to the area and its issues, having visited Cranbrook a year ago to talk to local tourism businesses about the HST implementation.

“The Kootenays and Cranbrook have so much to offer. I’m forever amazed by what we can offer a visitor,” he said.

“We just need to do a better job of helping them realize that.”

Chandra Herbert chatted with businesses during his stop in Cranbrook to share thoughts on the industry and how the NDP would do business differently if elected as the leading party in May, 2013. He also had time to meet with Kootenay-East NDP candidate Norma Blissett.

One of the biggest issues brought up by tour-

ism leaders in the Kootenay community was bringing the operators back into tourism marketing in the province.

“When it’s such an important industry we can’t afford to have political meddling,” Chandra Herbert said, adding that B.C.’s tourism operators do a great job marketing their own activities.

Chandra Herbert said he heard that many tourism operators felt government had stepped in and put politicians in control where tourism experts use to make decisions.

Funding is now a year to year endeavour and cooperation between the industry has been limited.

“That’s lead to huge instability,” Chandra Herbert said. “It was a real sense that government has abandoned tourism and the jobs associated with it.”

Tourism operators told the MLA they wanted to work together rather than be pitted against each other for funding and marketing opportunities.

“Instead they wanted us and our government to say ‘we’re all in it together,’” Chandra Herbert said.

MLA Spencer Chandra Herbert.

Further issues in B.C. tourism has been a revolving door of ministers at the helm. Since Chandra Herbert was re-elected as MLA in his riding in 2009, he said there have been four tourism ministers.

“It’s just kind of been chaos,” Chandra Herbert said. “They just want stability.”

As an MLA for Vancouver, Chandra Herbert said there are similarities and differences between the Lower Mainland and rural Southeastern B.C. when it comes to tourism.

Traveling the province he has heard many of the same issues pop up from west to east.

“We don’t have the

same issues with ATVs and snowmobiles in downtown Vancouver; but we still do have the same issues around respect for tourism,” he said.

When Chandra Herbert was last in Cranbrook, he heard from many tourism operators that the industry had been impacted by the HST. They also struggled post-Olympics to bring in the tourists promised after the 2010 games. The unpopular tax will officially be scrapped on April 1, 2013.

“Tourism has had a bit of a double whammy in this province,” he said.

Chandra Herbert said his party has watched the mistakes of the opposition in their introduction of the HST. Chandra Herbert said the NDP understand the economy is in a difficult spot right now, and said it is important to be modest in setting goals and to be upfront heading into the election.

“We need a government that reflects that and one that tries to bring out the best in us rather than demonizing one’s opponents.”

pletely engulfed in flames,” said Jaffray Baynes Lake Fire Chief, Dave Boreen. “The RV was unoccupied and there were no injuries; however, the trailer and ATVs are a total loss and a nearby boat sustained some damage.”

The fire quickly spread to the grass and area around the RV and crews focused much of their work on containing the fire so that neighbouring properties weren’t impacted.

During the height of the fire, at least two propane tanks were fully engulfed and exploded.

“The crew did a great job last night,” Boreen added. “Although it’s getting much cooler, the conditions out there are still dry and this fire quickly moved into the grass. It could certainly have become a much larger interface fire had they not been diligent in keeping it contained on site.”

The cause of the fire remains under investigation.

Barry Coulter

Michelle Wright ‘Safe In The Arms of Love’ (she signs a few bars). Then I think it’s a little Aretha (Franklin), and a couple more of my songs, then a little Merle Haggard.

“Kind of an interesting little adventure through music.”

While Wright currently lives in Nashville, she is originally from Ontario, and her Canadian musical heritage is part of the equation.

“As a Canadian, there are going to be some Canadian experiences with me and the audience,” she said, mentioning Ann Murray and Ian Tyson as examples.

And that’s not to discount her own contribution. “Certainly my songs, that I think cause people who’ve been with me through the years to go places emotionally, along with some of these great songs from international artists outside of Canada, it makes it pretty exciting for me.”

Wright is one of the youngest artists to be inducted into the Hall of Fame.

“At first I thought, ‘aren’t you supposed to

call me back in about 20 years from now?’” she said with a laugh. “Then I thought that it’s just so rare for someone my age to be in the Hall of Fame, and be able to get out there and do what I do on a yearly basis, and to be representing — it’s been way more fun than I imagined.”

Wright’s tour is underway with a five-piece band: Peter Lesperence

on lead guitar, Lee Warren on steel guitar and guitar; Matt Crouse on drums; Clay Krasner on bass; Mason Embry on keyboards. Wright herself will also be playing acoustic guitar.

Michelle Wright’s “Songs From The Halls” tour comes to Cranbrook’s Key City Theatre on Wednesday, Oct. 24.

Showtime is 8 p.m.

Private Members Bill C299 passed third reading in the House of Commons on Wednesday, Oct. 17. The bill now proceeds to the Senate for review.

“This bill goes beyond amending the Criminal Code to impose a mandatory minimum sentence,” said David Wilks, M.P. for Kootenay-Columbia.

“It goes to the heart of every parent who has young children. It recognizes that the most vulnerable, a child must be protected at all cost.”

This bill would impose a mandatory minimum jail sentence for a stranger that kidnaps a child under the age of 16.

“Surely if we as poli-

David Wilks ticians saw fit to give mandatory minimum sentencing to a person who kidnaps another person with a firearm or is connected to a criminal organization, we ought to see that kidnapping a defenceless child is in my opinion far graver than the aforementioned,” said Wilks.

The Bill passed by a

vote of 151 to 117.

“This is not about taking away the power of a judge`s decision nor about interjecting into a legal system that some believe provides adequate sentencing.

This is about sending a clear message that the protection of children is front and center when it comes to criminal behaviour,” stated Wilks.

“I look forward to following the debate in the Senate and eventual passage of Bill C-299,” Wilks said.

Michelle Wright, one of Canada’s most renowned Country Music performers, is celebrating her induction into the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame by sharing a portrait of her musical soul with the audience on her latest tour.

Wright’s “Songs From The Halls” tour started off in B.C. this weekend, and is coming to Cranbrook’s Key City Theatre on Wednesday, Oct. 24. The show balances many of Wright’s own greatest hits with songs from a variety of genres that have influenced her.

Wright spoke to the Townsman last week from her home in Nashville, Tenn. Later that evening she and the band and crew were due to set out by bus, in time to launch her 2012 tour in Kelowna.

“It’s pretty awesome,” the veteran singer said of hitting the road for her latest tour. “I’m just fresh off of rehearsals and putting the whole concept together.”

Wright said she wanted to share her induction into the Hall of Fame with her audience, and strove to find a special way to do that.

“You’re just trying to figure out what to do as a Hall of Fame member — how do you celebrate that, how do you share that with your fans, and give them a unique and special show?” Wright said. “So this concept came together, and once it did, I started listening to music and different artists that influenced me. And it’s been a wonderful, challenging journey through music.”

And how does this experience translate into the show, Wright was asked. How does this journey begin?

Wright illustrated this by launching into song: “‘Here I am, Baby, signed, sealed, delivered I’m yours!’

“And then it goes into

Financial tete a tete with Neddie “I’m not suggesting that you give up your dreams, just the ones that involve success.”

Psychiatrist “Education is when you read the fine print. Experience is what you get when you don’t.”

I

had a chat with Neddie recently but I am not sure we were communicating. With sixty years of difference in our ages, we were not truly able to understand on another. I often felt that we were using different languages; perhaps one of us was speaking Urdu or Hindi, but I’m not sure which one of us.

Neddie is a sort of relative even though he often appears to be from another planet.

The young fellow was showing me his brand-new truck, four-wheel drive and filled with electronics that neither one of us understands, although Neddie won’t admit to that fact. He paid more for that vehicle than I spent on my first house and is going to be paying more and more for umpteen years. In fact, I bet him one hundred dollars that he’d not keep possession of that monster for very much longer.

Neddie doesn’t get it. His attitude is: if you want something, go get it. Don’t worry where the money’s coming from; somehow it’ll all sort itself out. This, I believe is

a government attitude too.

As I was pondering the problems this guy is going to have paying for the vehicle, especially if he gets laid off or hurt, I idly picked up an envelope (it happened to have contained my natural gas bill, and that had caused me pain when I’d seen what I had to pay, even in the warm months of summer) and a ball-point pen and scribbled a rough balance sheet: income on one side and expenses on the other. I wrote: rent, food, clothes, telephone, the whole gamut of monthly bills then passed it to Neddie but he laughed and, when his cell phone rang, he answered it happily.

Now, this young fellow Peter without a spare dime to his Warland name informed me that he was looking for a camper for the truck and a friend had found one, a second hand job. “I need to get out of town,” Neddie told me.

I tried hard to explain that trucks with campers needed to be secured and the truck wired for them, that pick-ups with campers on burn more gas than those unencumbered, that these days camp-sites cost more than motels sometimes, that he couldn’t afford to take off travelling because he needed the money from his parttime jobs, but the young fellow wasn’t listening to my Urdu. He was heading to California and Mexico.

I kept recalling how my beloved and I

would’ve considered a serious purchase for ages and ages and, often, rejected the idea as ludicrous. Over the aeons, we had only purchased two new vehicles, a VW Bug and a Nissan pick-up and we’d paid cash for them because we felt that a mortgage debt alone was enough for anyone to cover. This concept doesn’t seem to enter Neddie’s brain.

He probably likes to spend like the government of Greece and expect to be bailed out by the government of frugal Germany or a soft-hearted relative. I explained that I wasn’t that sort of relative. Neddie looked surprised.

He still hasn’t grasped the concept of working steadily, saving frugally and lowering his sights just a tad.

At the termination of our so-called conversation I asked Neddie what he fancied for Christmas. I was hoping that he’d want help with his payments, maybe a few dollars towards the insurance, but no. He wanted mud-flaps. “The truck keeps getting muddy along the sides,” he explained.

“You mean those armed-to-the-teeth Yosemite Sam ones that scream Back Off?” I asked.

“Yeah!” said Neddie, his eyes bright with excitement and anticipation.

I gave up; I felt I could actually see the lad drifting further and further from reality and wondered idly if Prime Minister Harper had similar chats with his Finance Minister, and which one spoke in Hindi or Urdu, and if the other one noticed.

news/opinion Tied in the polls, Obama, Romney prepare for third and final debate

Lee-Anne Goodman Canadian Press

P

resident Barack Obama and Mitt Romney face off in their third and final prime time debate on Monday in the critical swing state of Florida as each man looks for the knockout punch that could break their dead heat in the polls with just two weeks until election day.

On the eve of their foreign policy debate in Boca Raton, a new NBC News/Wall Street Journal survey showed the men are tied at 47 per cent.

The president has a wider lead among all registered voters — 49 per cent compared to 44 per cent for Romney — but the new poll suggested his support has weakened among women, a key demographic for Obama in his bruising battle for a second term.

The president’s lead among female voters has slipped to its slimmest margin this year — 51 to 42 — in the NBC/Wall Street

Journal poll. Romney, meantime, still has a 53 per cent advantage among men compared to 43 per cent for Obama.

Nonetheless, Romney has to start making big gains in several battleground states — Florida, Ohio and Virginia, especially — if he’s to wrest the White House away from Obama. Those states will determine the outcome of the Nov. 6 vote.

Polls in several of the battlegrounds have also tightened, though Obama still maintains an edge. Both politicians have been barnstorming key swing states in recent days and will continue to do so in the final stretch of the campaign.

Republicans say the polls prove Romney is riding a wave of momentum.

Team Obama, meantime, put on a brave face, shrugging off the numbers by saying they’ve always expected a close race.

Obama and Romney took a

break from swing-state campaigning over the weekend to prepare for their final debate.

The 90-minute showdown represents one of the last chances for them to win over the small but critical group of Americans who still haven’t decided how to cast their ballots on Nov. 6.

Obama hunkered down at the presidential retreat of Camp David in Maryland’s lush Catoctin Mountains. Axelrod, White House senior strategist David Plouffe and Tom Donilon, the president’s national security adviser, were with him.

Romney, meantime, spent the weekend in Florida in his own so-called debate camp.

Foreign policy has become a key issue in the final weeks of the campaign after last month’s eruption of anti-American violence in Libya. The attack on the Beghazi consulate on the 11th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks killed four Americans, including Chris Stevens, the U.S. ambassador to

Libya.

During their second faceoff last week, however, Obama bested Romney on questions about Libya, in particular when the Republican falsely asserted that it took the president 14 days to characterize the attack on the consulate as an act of terror.

The president also disarmed Romney by saying he took ultimate responsibility for what went wrong in the North African country last month.

With those memories still fresh — many commentators called it the worst moment of the debate for Romney — the Republican was expected to try to steer clear of Libya during the Florida showdown, and to instead focus on Obama’s policies on Iran and Israel.

Romney has argued the administration has been soft on Iran as it builds a nuclear program and accuses Obama of damaging the U.S.-Israeli relationship.

We have remedies for bullying What’s missing is will

E

M i c h a e l D e n Ta n dt Postmedia News

very person who has faced a serious incident of bullying knows what put a stop to it. Either the victim stood up to the bully; or the victim found a champion, who stood up to the bully; or the victim and bully were physically separated, denying the bully access.

These are the remedies that work.

These are the remedies that have always worked.

Parents who have dealt with the problem understand this. Police officers, guidance counsellors, coaches and front-line educators understand it. And children, regardless of age, understand it intuitively.

Why, then, are MPs suddenly falling over themselves to discuss the problem of bullying? To propose that something should be studied presupposes that one doesn’t have a remedy. Yet when it comes to bullying, we know the remedies.

The tragic suicide of B.C. teenager Amanda Todd, and her heart-rending video of suffering endured at the hands of an as-yet-unknown tormentor or tormentors, has of course sparked this discussion. The discussion is healthy and good: Amanda’s story is horrifying and indescribably sad.

It would be helpful, though, if the “experts” stopped pretending that bullying is an intractable, mysterious and ineffable social problem without obvious solutions.

There are solutions. They’re not complicated.

The first mistake we make, societally, is to set all incidents of childhood violence on the same moral plane. In other words, the child who strikes back after being struck is as guilty as the instigator

who struck first. Victims are urged to never “fight back” physically. If they do, they receive punishment equal to that of the aggressor. Rather than punch the bully in the nose, the victim is urged to rely on moral suasion, or speak to a teacher.

Some bullies are verbal only. In these cases moral suasion can work. Humour and wit can work. A confident bearing can work. Building alliances with other children can work. Any good anti-bullying coach teaches these techniques as a first line of defence. And sympathetic teachers can certainly help.

The reality, though, is that some bullies are physically violent. They threaten, strike, push, confine or otherwise physically torment their targets, beyond the reach of teachers. In these cases, a victim has an inherent right to self-defence, enshrined in Section 34 of the Criminal Code: “Every one who is unlawfully assaulted without having provoked the assault is justified in repelling force by force if the force he uses is not intended to cause death or grievous bodily harm and is no more than is necessary to enable him to defend himself.”

Yet the official line is “zero-tolerance”: No violence, even in self-defence, is ever justified. This is plainly a double standard. It does not apply to adults, or to nations. This is why most parents of bullied kids quietly ignore the official line, and tell their children: If he pushes you again, push back. That will put a stop to it. And often it does.

The trouble is that sometimes, pushing back either doesn’t work, or the victim simply isn’t able to do it. Or the bullying is a matter of ostracism and insult rather than physical threat. Or the most egregious abuse happens, as in the case of Amanda Todd, online. What then? Cue the helpless shrugs, or the impassioned

demands that “something must be done.”

Let’s strike a committee. Let’s author a law.

Question: Does the Criminal Code not already prohibit assault, harassment, uttering threats, and stalking? Why, yes.

And is defamation, which now occurs so routinely online that it barely draws mention, not proscribed? — Why, yes. So we have the necessary laws. The failing is elsewhere.

As a first step, educators should set aside the psychologically damaging and morally reprehensible equivalency between perpetrator and victim. A child who pushes back after being pushed is only doing what any reasonable person would do.

Second, administrators should punish bullies by expelling them from school for lengthy periods. In cases of physical injury, police and child welfare authorities should automatically be called. Parents of bullies are sometimes loath to face the truth of their child’s behaviour. They should be required to do so.

Third, “cyber-bullying” should be treated for what it is: Criminal harassment. The obvious investigative cudgel here is that anything online leaves a trail.

Fourth, online anonymity should be sharply curtailed, or banned. Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and the comment sections of news sites can prevent most anonymous posting, if they wish to. Of course, anyone truly dedicated to hiding their tracks will find a way. But the practice of Internet trolls routinely hiding behind a “handle” while spewing their venom, would be curbed. These are obvious measures, not necessarily easy. Is there the will, societal and political, to introduce them?

Or is it easier to talk, talk, talk?

Talk is cheap. Solutions exist. What’s missing, it seems to me, is the will to implement them.

KOOTENAY ICE

Ice split series against Rebels, fall to Blazers TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

Three games in three nights proved to be a tough test for the Kootenay Ice. Kootenay opened a triple header weekend by beating the Rebels 2-1 in overtime in Red Deer, before returning to Western Financial Place to fall 6-3 to the Kamloops Blazers.

The Ice wrapped it all up on Sunday evening as the Rebels followed the Ice back to Cranbrook and edged out a comefrom-behind 3-2 win.

The Ice had the lead three times against the Blazers on Saturday and gave up a two-goal lead against the Rebels on Sunday.

Needless to say, Kootenay head coach Ryan McGill was not happy with the way the weekend turned out, and said he wants to see more leadership from veteran players.

“We have to develop some maturity as a hockey team and that will come from this young group,” said McGill. “But within that young group, the older guys got to step up and foster that maturity and help these guys through it.

“Right now, we’re not getting that from our older guys.”

Jaedon Descheneau’s first goal of the season couldn’t have come at a better time as his overtime marker lifted the Ice 2-1 over the Rebels on Friday night in Alberta.

It was a tight affair and a battle between Ice stopper Mackenzie

Skapski and his opponent Patrik Bartosak as Kootenay edged out the victory in their first trip to overtime this season.

Scoreless after two periods, the Rebels got on the board when Matt Bellerive beat Skapski after the Red Deer forward collected a puck off a dump-in that deflected of the linesman. Skapski was already behind the net to play the puck, and was out of position for Bellerive’s shot.

However, the chances kept coming for the Ice, until Kootenay Luke Philp found the equalizer with five minutes to go in the game.

On a superb solo effort, Philp stole the puck from a Rebel’s defenceman, cut around his check, and roofed a shot over Bartosak’s glove to send the contest into overtime.

It only took 39 seconds for the Ice to end the game as Descheneau finished off of Sam Reinhart’s effort.

Reinhart fought through a couple defenders while advancing through the slot and got a shot off, which Bartosak turned away, however Descheneau took the puck at the side of the net and wrapped around to stuff it in on his forehand on the other side.

“It was good, finally got the monkey off my back,” said Descheneau, who had been snakebitten for goals so far in the season. “But what I have to say, is Sam [Reinhart] with his effort—that goal never would’ve happened if it wasn’t for him.”

Kootenay Ice forward Levi Cable digs into the pads of Red Deer Rebels goaltender Patrik Bartosak during WHL action at Western Financial Place on Sunday evening.

The undefeated-in -regulation Blazer train rolled into town on Saturday night as the Ice fell 6-3 to the CHL’s topranked team, despite taking the lead three consecutive times during the contest.

Kootenay opened with a strong first shift against the Blazers and kept up the pressure, until rookie Collin Shirley notched his third goal of the season.

Jaedon Descheneau drove to the net from the left wing and cut across the slot, but lost a handle on the puck. Shirley scooped it up and fired it past Blazers goalie Cole Cheveldave for a 1-0 lead.

Mackenzie Skapski was sharp in net for the

Ice, making a good stop at the side of the net on Brendan Ranford and denying Tim Bozon, who tried to redirect a cross-ice pass in the slot.

However, Colin Smith got one by the Ice goaltender late in the

period to tie up the game, capitalizing after the puck went through a couple different players as the Blazers advanced into the zone.

The Ice pulled ahead in the second period when Descheneau

picked off a sloppy pass in the offensive zone and beat Cheveldave low blocker side.

However, the Ice found themselves killing a two-man advantage at the halfway mark, when Lipon banged in a backdoor feed to tie up the game again.

For the third time, the Ice took the lead when Brock Montgomery shoveled in the garbage during a goal-mouth scramble.

Forty seconds later, Tim Bozon put the puck over Skapski’s shoulder and off the twine on a breakaway as both teams went into the final frame tied 3-3.

The Blazers needed only 25 seconds to pull ahead, when Sam Grist

wristed a shot from the point that beat Skapski glove side.

Bozon got his second of the night on a power play goal, snapping a shot top corner from the slot after receiving a pass from Tyler Hansen.

In the final minutes, Cheveldave took a delay of game penalty for clearing the puck over the glass, and the Ice pulled Skapski to field six attackers against four Blazers.

But the Ice couldn’t generate anything, and Lipon sunk their chances when he cleared the puck off the boards, which slid down the ice and into the gaping Kootenay net.

Blue Jays manager on the move to Boston C ANADIAN PRESS

TORONTO - The John Farrell era is over in Toronto.

The Blue Jays agreed to a deal with the Red Sox on Sunday that released their manager from his contract, allowing him to join Boston.

Toronto acquired infielder Mike Aviles from Boston as part of the transaction for righthanded pitcher David Carpenter.

Farrell, who was named the 12th manager in Blue Jays history in October 2010, guided the Blue Jays to a 73-89 record this season, good for a fourth-place finish in the American League East division standings.

It was a step back from the team’s performance in 2011, when Toronto finished 81-81 in Farrell’s first season as manager.

The Red Sox, mean-

while, fired manager Bobby Valentine after a disastrous 2012 season that saw the club finish last in the AL East with a record of 69-93.

Farrell was hired by the Blue Jays after four seasons as a pitching coach with Boston.

“I’m extremely excited to be returning to the Red Sox and to Boston,” Farrell said in a statement. “I love this organization. It’s a great

franchise in a special city and region, with great fans, and we want nothing more than to reward their faith in us.”

Farrell helped instill a more aggressive approach on the basepaths in Toronto, but inconsistent pitching was a constant issue.

Major injuries to several starters wore down the staff in 2012 and ace Ricky Romero had an off-year.

Aviles, 31, appeared in 136 games for the Red Sox last season, batting .250 with 13 home runs and 60 RBIs. Carpenter, 27, was acquired by the Blue Jays from the Houston Astros in July and appeared in three games out of the bullpen. He posted 0-2 record with an 8.07 earned-run average in 33 games with Houston and Toronto in 2012.

Framework may be set for NHL deal: Daly Cardinals fall Chris Johnston Canadian Press

Time is running short to save a full NHL season.

But with just days remaining to strike a new collective bargaining agreement and preserve an 82-game schedule, deputy commissioner Bill Daly indicated that he felt there was a deal to be made.

Asked on Sunday whether there was a chance for the sides to get something in place

by Thursday’s deadline, Daly responded by saying “that’s more of a question for the union than it is for me.”“We think there’s a framework of a deal on the table,” he added.

It’s the same conclusion a number of observers reached after watching the league and

NHL Players’ Association move closer together in proposals delivered over the last week.

At worst, they remain about US$550 million apart in the division of revenue over a five-year deal - depending on which of the union’s three proposals is used and at what rate the business ends up growing. They could be separated by as little as $320 million.

The NHLPA has shown a willingness to get to the league’s desired 50-50 split of revenues over the course of the deal, but wants to ensure all current contracts are honoured in full. The NHL attempted to address that with a surprise offer on Tuesday, but the NHLPA didn’t like that the proposed “make whole”

provision would see deferred payments count against the earning potential of players in the future.

“We’re available to continue negotiating” Donald Fehr However, commissioner Gary Bettman made it clear to NHLPA executive director Donald Fehr that further concessions could be made in that area.

“At the end of yesterday’s meeting, Gary did say that (if) the players were prepared to agree to all of the other parts of their offer (subject, perhaps, to ”tweaks“) then I could call him about this issue,” Fehr

wrote in a letter to his membership and player agents on Friday.

No official bargaining sessions have been scheduled for the coming week. However, the sides are expected to resume talks at some point in New York.

There is incentive for both to try and wrap up a deal sooner than later, with the league saying a full season could be played starting Nov. 2 if an agreement is signed

by Thursday.

“That’s as far as we can go and still play 82 games and be done with the playoffs by the end of June,” Bettman said this week. “Obviously, nobody would think it was appropriate for us to be playing in July.”

If the NHL were able to save a full season that

included the Jan. 1 Winter Classic outdoor game at Michigan Stadium, it could likely count on raking in revenues similar to the record $3.3 billion it pulled in last year.

Fehr seemed wary of Bettman’s claim the NHL had tabled its best offer - a similar claim was made prior to the lockout being enacted on Sept. 15 - but he’s acknowledged that his membership believes it’s important to play a full season.

“We’re available to continue negotiating,” Fehr said last week.

The Kimberley Dynamiters found success on the road, beating the Thunder Cats in Creston on Friday, while dropping a decision to the Fernie Ghostriders at home the following evening.

Mitchell Loose had a two-goal performance to lift the Nitros 5-3 over the T-Cats, while goaltender Chris Solecki made a 24-save effort for Fernie as the Ghostriders won 3-1 at the Kimberley Civic Centre.

Fernie’s win also snapped a four-game win streak for the Dy-

namiters, as the Ghosties now sit atop the Eddie Mountain Division—one point ahead of the Nitros.

Kimberley struck first against the T-Cats, but Creston led 2-1 after the first period.

Loose got his first goal of the game on the power play three minutes in, but Andrew Hodder and Darcy Flaherty put Creston in the lead after the opening frame.

However, a threegoal performance by Kimberley on efforts from Sam Nigg, Brett Luker and Loose restored the Kimberley lead.

Riley Hellekson added to the Dynamiters’ lead in the third period, and Colby Livingstone got a puck by Nitro stopper Jeremy Mousseau.

Mousseau had a monster night, making 46 saves as Creston doubled the shot clock on the Nitros in the first period and, in the

final frame, posted 19 shots in Kimberley’s zone, while the Nitros responded with three.

Creston netminder Michael Hails turned away 17 pucks for the Thunder Cats on the other end.

It was a penalty-riddled affair, as the TCats capitalized once in nine opportunities, while the Nitros made good twice on their two power play chances.

The Ghostriders poured some cold water on the Nitros’ hot streak on Saturday evening, as Brendan Burge scored twice to lift Fernie to a 3-1 win.

Kimberley’s only goal came from Jason Richter in the first period, as Kimberley grabbed the lead with eight minutes to go.

The two teams went scoreless in the second period, but Fernie pulled ahead in the third period with two goals from Burge and an empty-netter from Josh McKissock.

Mousseau was busy between the pipes, stopping 30 shots, while Solecki made 24 saves for Fernie.

Both teams had nine opportunities each on the power play, but neither capitalized on any chances.

McGill disappointed with weekend results Continued from page 8 Skapski made 23 saves for the Ice, while Cheveldave made 22 stops for the Blazers.

Kootenay was good for one power play goal in six chances, while Kamloops struck twice in three opportunities.

“You got to respect them, they’re a good team and all, but there’s no excuses why we can’t come out and beat them,” said Descheneau. “I thought we played well at times, but there were times when we weren’t well and that’s what came back to bite us.”

The Ice wrapped up their weekend by facing the Rebels again, at Western Financial Place, but Red Deer got some revenge and edged out a 3-2 win as Charles Inglis scored twice to lead his team to victory.

Ice backup Wyatt Hoflin got the nod, making 28 saves, while Patrik Bartosak turned away 30 shots for the win.

Collin Shirley picked up a rebound in front of Bartosak and had all the time and space to score his fourth goal of the

season for a first-period Kootenay lead.

Kootenay had a couple quality scoring chances and were buzzing around the Rebels zone, keeping Bartosak busy, who kept his team alive by making some great saves.

Descheneau doubled the lead in the second, getting his third goal in three games by wristing a low shot that tipped of a Rebel defenceman’s stick while entering the offensive zone.

However, the Rebels turned things around over the remainder of the frame.

Kevin Pochuk collected a loose puck at the top of the slot and wristed a shot past Hoflin, while Charles Inglis took advantage of a bad Ice line change when Kootenay was killing a penalty, and capitalized on a fat rebound with no one checking him.

The two teams were locked in a 2-2 tie for most of the final frame until Inglis scored again on the man-advantage, shovelling in the puck off a scramble just outside the crease.

Ice captain Drew Czerwonka took a dangerous check to the head

by Riley Boomgaarden,

and while the Kootenay veteran initially left for the dressing room, he soon returned to the bench.

The Ice power play was listless, as Red Deer did a formidable job of killing both of two opportunities, while Kootenay gave up a pair of goals in as many chances for the Rebels.

Off the ice, it was interesting to note that veteran Erik Benoit was a healthy scratch, as McGill said he hopes the move sends a message to everyone.

“I don’t want casual players playing,” said McGill.

6-1 as Giants force Game 7

Antonio Gonz alez Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO — Chris Carpenter walked off the mound, and the fans cheered him once again.

Giants fans, that is.

The orange toweltwirling crowd at AT&T Park saw San Francisco send the St. Louis star to an early exit in a 6-1 win Sunday night that forced the NL championship series to a decisive Game 7.

“The bottom line is,’’ Carpenter said, “I’m not giving my team a chance to win.’’

The Cardinals’ longtime post-season ace came back from a complicated operation that removed a rib and two neck muscles just to get on the mound again this October for the reigning World Series champions. All of that success, though, has evaporated in his last two starts in San Francisco.

Carpenter allowed five runs in four shaky innings —identical to his loss earlier in Game 2.

Not what the Cardinals had come to expect from him in the post-season, a resume that includes a Game 7 win in last year’s World Series.

And so the wild-card Cardinals were pushed to the brink of elimination once more. They’re plenty familiar with that situation.

Carpenter and St. Louis won the decisive Game 5 of the division series at Philadelphia last season, then the Cardinals overcame a 3-2 deficit in the World Series to beat Texas.

They won the winnertake-all wild-card game at Atlanta this month and rallied in the ninth at Washington in Game 5 of the division series.

Now they must do it again.

Giants ace Matt Cain

will take the mound for Game 7 in San Francisco on Monday night opposite Kyle Lohse in a rematch of a rain-delayed Game 3, which the Cardinals won in St. Louis.

There’s also a rare rainy forecast for San Francisco for the clincher.

“We’ve been in this spot before,’’ second baseman Daniel Descalso said. “We’re not going to be intimidated by it.’’

If the Cardinals hope to return to the World Series, they’ll need to find some stronger pitching and defence _ and fast.

Not to mention a little offence, too.

Allen Craig’s two-out single in the sixth drove home Carlos Beltran for the Cardinals’ only run against Ryan Vogelsong, who struck out a careerhigh nine in seven innings of four-hit ball. St. Louis had gone 15 innings without scoring after lefty Barry Zito and Co. held it scoreless in Game 5.

Carpenter allowed six hits and three unearned runs, the same as he did in Game 2 at San Francisco, except he had only one strikeout in that outing. The 10 unearned runs allowed by the Cardinals over the series is the most in NLCS history, according to STATS LLC. Two teams have allowed nine.

Talk about St. Louis blues.

“The one thing I know is these guys take these ones hard,’’ Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. “We’ve had a number of losses this season that felt like we’ve been kicked in the gut as we’re walking off the field. And what I have admired about this club is they show up tomorrow the exact same guys that they showed up here today.’’

ARIES (March 21-April 19) If you are looking for a key associate to agree with you, look elsewhere. You will be dealing with this associate in the next month.

The unexpected marks your actions and encourages a different avenue of thought. Look at the big picture now. Tonight: Find your friends.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Others make demands, and you produce results. There is someone you cannot please, no matter what you do. Today emphasizes that fact. You could take this person’s behavior personally or slowly pull back and see what is ailing him or her. A loved one puts in his or her two cents. Tonight: Out and about.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Reach out for others’ opinions.

Someone might have off-the-wall ideas, but do not shut them down.

This person’s provocative thinking allows you to break past current restrictions. A friend surprises you with an unexpected visit. Tonight: Let your mind wander.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Deal with an irritable boss or a partner who might seem somewhat unstable. Emphasize your libido’s energy. Some of you might decide to indulge a romantic fantasy rather than deal with what seems impossible. Tonight: Let the good times rock and roll.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Know when it’s time to loosen the reins and allow others to take a more dominant role. Certainly, you don’t always have the answers. An expert on the topic of the day lets you know that fact unintentionally. Maintain tight communication with a family member. Tonight: The only answer is “yes.”

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Your smooth style makes a difference to those who are around you on a regular basis. They count on your accuracy and precision. Nevertheless, a key person in your life jolts you once more by doing the unexpected. Your reaction could be quite dynamic. Tonight: Your normal routine.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You have a lot on your plate, and you feel strapped in some manner.

For Better or Worse

Count on the unexpected to occur; you might start liking these surprising twists in your life. Laughter marks a special relationship, though the other party could be quite serious at this point. Tonight: Forget that it’s Monday.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You might find that your mood, like a current, is constantly changing. The Sun moves into your sign today, which increases your energy. You are full of vigor in the evening, and for many of you, optimism returns. Try to avoid a potential spending spree. Tonight: Celebrate good times!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Zero in on necessities. Realize when you have had enough and also when you would like to be more frivolous. Part of you allows greater give-and-take with others.

You like someone’s unpredictability and might indulge in the same way. Tonight: Where your friends are.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Be aware of what is happening within a friendship. You might need to refresh your perspective and move through some precon-

ceived and possibly rigid thinking.

A meeting proves to be important.

In fact, you will use this type of get-together more often in the near future. Tonight: Buy that item you have been eyeing.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You feel as if you have a tiger by the tail. Use your high energy and growing self-confidence to forge ahead in a particular area of your life. A friend might have strong sentiments about what you are doing. Listening to this person does not mean that you are agreeing. Tonight: Do your thing.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Maintain a low profile, and listen to what is being said without butting in. Your observations could draw some very steady and important insights. You could be unpredictable, for better or worse, with your funds. Be aware of this trait. Tonight: Do something just for you.

Annie’s Mailbox

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar

Dear Annie: My son, “Clark,” is 51 years old and never married. Last month, he met a 26-year-old online. This girl’s mother is only four months older than my son.

The girl is younger than my grandchildren.

Clark has proposed to this girl and put money in an account for her to use for their wedding. I learned about the wedding dress and the reception hall from my daughter. I know nothing about the girl’s family except her parents are divorced and her mother is living with the man who fathered her little brother.

I am a bit leery of what’s going on and worry that this girl is using Clark for his money. When she and her family go out with him, he pays for everything. I care about my son and don’t want him to get hurt. How do I get the two of them to let me in on what’s happening? -- Mom Dear Mom: Your son is 51 years old, and if he wants to marry a girl half his age and give her all of his money, that’s his decision, good or bad. He certainly wouldn’t be the first man to behave this way. We understand your concern, but if you want your son to be part of your life, you will need to accept his decision to marry this girl. Do your best to put aside your misgivings and welcome her. She may, in fact, turn out to be a terrific young woman and a good wife. But if things go south, please resist the urge to say “I told you so.”

Dear Annie: Based on strong personal beliefs, I made the decision 10 years ago to quit celebrating the major religious holidays. I don’t begrudge others celebrating, and I keep my “bah humbugs” under wraps.

Last year, I ended up in a difficult situation. I was patient when my office played holiday music from Thanksgiving to Christmas. I good-naturedly cut out snowflakes to contribute to the team decorating contest. I even participated in the potluck by baking a batch of cookies.

However, I politely declined the secret Santa gift exchange. Unfortunately, my well-meaning supervisor bought me a gift anyway.

Please tell your readers that if someone says they don’t participate in the holidays, please respect their wishes. We do not feel left out or deprived. When we receive a gift anyway, it’s rude. It becomes all about you. So, Annie, if it happens again, should I refuse the gift politely? Also, should I complain about the music or just grit my teeth and deal? -- Modern-Day Scrooge Dear Scrooge: It’s OK to accept an unanticipated gift without reciprocating. Just say thank you. Complaining about the music, however, is probably an exercise in futility. Bring headphones.

Dear Annie: I was appalled by your response to “Judged Wrong in Jersey,” who is mistaken for Goth because she wears a lot of eyeliner. You told her to “take responsibility” for her choices. She’s a kid.

How is she supposed to know who she is if she doesn’t experiment? You should have encouraged her style. -- Bullied Victim Dear Victim: The girl is not being bullied.

She has made a choice that has produced negative repercussions. Readers were upset that we didn’t tell “Judged” to wear as much eyeliner as she likes, and that we didn’t yell at the fleeting comment by an unknown teacher.

Fair or not, people judge based on appearances. Teenagers are not toddlers (although they both do things to gain attention). Part of the maturation process is learning to understand that choices have consequences. If she chooses to wear heavy eyeliner, it’s fine with us, and we hope she enjoys the experience, but she should accept that she is provoking a reaction. If she doesn’t like the feedback, she can modify her makeup or brave the criticism. And if she takes pleasure in the response, she shouldn’t complain about it.

Busting the black cat ‘Trick the psychic, win a prize’ does not work myths around Halloween Dear Wendy: to learn on this plane in this lifetime, I don’t know how to start this then we will help you.

Anyway, if it’s any consolation e-mail but to apologize for my behaviour last week when I came to don’t feel too bad — you were not you for a reading. I was upset when I the only one that tried to trick the left and I behaved badly but in my psychic this month.

Animal shelters say most fears are unfounded

Diana Mehta Canadian Press

TORONTO — Don’t judge these felines by the colour of their fur.

Bans on the adoption of black cats at Halloween were commonplace until a few years ago as many worried the animals would be harmed by pranksters or animal abusers.

But animal welfare activists say the dark coated felines are proving they aren’t as much of a target this time of year as previously thought.

Now, at least two major animal welfare groups are deliberately promoting the adoption of black cats in October, saying the furry felines could use the marketing boost.

“Realistically, we’ve consulted with our investigations department and they don’t see an increase of cat cruelty cases,’’ said Allison Cross, senior communications manager at the Ontario SPCA. The group is offering a $5-discount on black, orange and calico cats in the days leading up to Halloween this year and dismisses concerns about the dark furred felines being particularly at risk this month.

“It’s more of a myth,’’ said Cross. “So we said `OK, why discourage the adoption of animals, why not encourage it.’’’

Rather than hearing about feline cruelty in October, Cross said the Ontario SPCA gets more reports about cats being spooked or running away while trick or treating is in progress — all scenarios for which it offers pet safety advice.

The organization maintains that it has a rigorous screening process in place which should be able to flag those looking to take away a black cat without the intention of giving it a good home.

“We always have a lot of cats in our care and really we’re just going along with the theme of the holidays,’’ said Cross. “It’s just a fun way that allows us to promote these cats that are constantly looking for homes.’’

The Nova Scotia SPCA takes the same approach, encouraging the adoption of black cats around Halloween in all its branches.

“We don’t have the luxury of including barriers to adoption when the demand for intake and the demand for services is so high,’’ said executive director Kristin Williams. “We have great faith in our adoption process.’’

But while it appears the majority of Canadian shelters are

This handout photo shows a black cat in Chicago. Bans on the adoption of black cats at Halloween were commonplace until a few years ago as many worried the animals would be harmed by pranksters or animal abusers. doing away with seasonal adoption bans, some organizations aren’t going as far as deliberately promoting black cats around Halloween.

“We’re just not quite ready for that yet. I think we still have a little bit of that concern,’’ said Barbara Steinhoff, communications director for the Toronto Humane Society.

The independent non-profit exerts extra caution for black feline adoptions all through the month of October and guards particularly against those searching for a live Halloween accessory rather than a longterm companion.

“It still does happen where people are coming in and literally looking for an animal and it turns out what they’re looking for is black cats to act as a Halloween party prop,’’ said Steinhoff. “It’s becoming few and further between, but it can happen.’’

The British Columbia SPCA exerts similar caution in October but says its new screening and matching programs have made the organization confident that its adoption process works in an animal’s best interests.

“You hear the occasional news story about people using animals in cults and sacrifices and things, certainly our staff would be more on alert this time of year,’’ said Lorie Chortyk, general manager of community relations.

“But the chances of someone

just coming in and quickly taking off (with) a black cat with less than honourable intentions, it’s very unlikely.’’

That’s exactly the point the Windsor/Essex County Humane Society in southern Ontario was trying to make when it abolished a Halloween-based black cat adoption ban about five years ago.

“All this urban myth was doing was preventing us from getting black cats into homes and it wasn’t actually doing anything to deter people who are trying to get cats for bad purposes,’’ said executive director Melanie Coulter.

“There’s enough cats out there that are easy for someone to obtain. If you want a cat for a Halloween sacrifice, you can get one on Kijiji for free,’’ she said.

Instead of focusing on fears, the society uses the Halloween period to highlight the visibility issues faced by black cats, and dark-furred animals in general.

Black animals often tend to get adopted last for a number of reasons, said Coulter —they’re less visible in kennels, don’t photograph as well, sometimes aren’t considered as pretty and, in the case of black cats, may still be considered bad luck by some.

“We are able to use this Halloween season to talk about the issue facing black cats and black dogs in shelters,’’ she said.

“That’s something we’d like to raise awareness of.’’

birdwatching with the Rocky Mountain Naturalists

Wild sarsaparilla and Townsend’s Solitaire Daryl C alder

Several small lakes at the base of the Rockies lured naturalists to Premier Lake Provincial Park for a fall hike.

Tucked into rolling country along the eastern margin of the Rocky Mountain Trench, a loop trail offered bird viewing opportunities through the Interior Douglas Fir and Western Larch forests which exemplify East Kootenay ecosystems.

Soon, trickling water provided the first clue that a pond lay ahead. A glimpse of clear, blue water shimmered between the trees. Yankee Lake with it’s trout and fall reflections had us fishing for our cameras.

In the riparian zone on the approach to the larger Canuck Lake, we noticed the yellowing, oval leaflets of Wild Sarsaparilla, a member of the Ginseng family. This perennial herb with a single leaf stalk 30-60 cm tall, divides into three stems, each with 3-5 oval, pointed, toothed leaflets. In spring, flowers are small and greenish, while the fruit is a dark, purple-black berry. The flower stalk is shorter than the leaf stem and so the umbrella cluster of tiny whitegreen flowers is generally hidden from sight. Plump, ribbed, green or brown inedible seeds are formed later.

The root has medicinal properties similar to the true sarsaparilla which is a tropical plant. The root was used

by North American First Nations people to make a bitter tea that was used to treat heart pain, stomach upset, toothache and sore throats.

It was applied externally to prevent and treat infections.

The whole plant was used to treat pneumonia and is used today by herbalists as a substitute for true sarsaparilla, the totally unrelated plant.

Wild sarsaparilla is very common in shaded mixed woods, in rich soil with lots of decaying plant material. It is found across Canada from coast to coast. Harvesting is traditionally done by hand, taking only the main root of mature plants. The secondary root is left to propagate.

The roots are washed and dried on racks, then stored on racks in a dark, dry, well ventilated area until they are chipped or ground.

Towards Turtle Lake, the repetitive, high-pitched, ringing “tew” directed our attention to a prominent perch occupied by a Townsend’s Solitaire. A longtailed grey bird of the high western mountains, the solitaire descends in the winter to lower elevations where it feeds almost exclusively on juniper berries. During the winter, the male and female are both strongly territorial, defending patches of juniper trees against other solitaires and other birds. Townsend’s Solitaires sing throughout the fall and winter to set up and hold their winter territory. Listen for a long and complex series of clear, warbling notes. Violent fights may break out in defense of the winter territory, because owners of large, berry-rich territories survive the winter at higher rates than solitaires on small territories with few berries.

Breeding in mountainous areas, especially in open coniferous forests, the Townsend’s Solitaire usually puts it’s nest on the ground.

Sometimes it nests above the ground in a decaying stub or a live tree, and is especially fond of nesting along cut banks. All of the sites used are nooks or hollows beneath some sort of overhanging object that shelters the nest from above. It will

catch flying insects and pick spiders and insects from tree bark or from the ground.

Populations show no significant trends and are classified as ‘least concern’. The solitaire is a bird we count on to appear during the annual Christmas Bird Count, often heard before it is seen.

The trail from Turtle Lake west to Premier Lake traverses a selectively logged section which had been densely forested. Recent powerful winds had broken and tossed many of the ‘reserve trees’ to the ground. The ‘ecosystem restoration’ logging was de-

signed to protect the forest from devastating fire and bark beetle infestation. Closer to the mountains, a mud flow had obliterated a trail section when late, saturated snows had rushed down a gully and sprawled out through the forest. Thankfully, and with considerable effort, parks staff had restored the trail. Curiously, the Park was named after Mr William Smithe, Premier of BC from 1883-1887, when it was established in 1940. Not only does the park provide a variety of quality recreation experiences year round, but

George McGovern, who lost 1972 presidential bid to Nixon, dead at 90 Associated Press

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. — A family spokesman says former U.S. Sen. George McGovern, the Democrat who lost to President Richard Nixon in 1972 in a historic landslide, has died at the age of 90.

The spokesman, Steve Hildebrand, told The Associated Press by telephone that McGovern died at 5:15 a.m. Sunday at a hospice in Sioux Falls, surrounded by family and friends.
