Macdonald was elected as the MLA for Columbia River - Revelstoke on May 17th, 2005, and re-elected on May 12th, 2009. He serves as the Opposition Critic for Forestry and the Chair of the Rural Caucus.

The nominating meeting takes place this Sunday in the meeting room at the Kimberley Aquatic Centre from 1:45 to 2:15 p.m.

At the present time, the only other person officially running in this riding is BC Liberal Doug Clovechok.

It began in 1982 when two rather disparate musicians, Van Redecopp and Arne Sahlen, had a vision of providing a venue for local musicians to perform in front of a live audience.

The first Kimberley Home Grown Music coffee house began that year and it has grown to be a staple in Kimberley on wintery Saturday nights.

On Sunday, October 21st in the early morning hours a green pickup truck was observed driving erratically, by another motorist who called police and reported their observations, vehi-

Old Man Winter is waking up ANNALEE GR ANT Townsman Staff

East Kootenay residents woke up to a blanket of fluffy white snow Tuesday morning, but Environment Canada meteorologist Doug Lundquist says we shouldn’t get used to it.

That’s right, the snow isn’t here to stay. The temperature through the week is expected to stay below 0 C, but Lundquist said by Sunday the valley bottom will warm up to 8 C or 9 C, effectively melting all the gathered flurries. The snowcapped Rockies aren’t going anywhere, though.

“In the mountains, winter is here to stay,” he said.

Lundquist said the storm that blew into the area overnight Monday certainly wasn’t unusual for this time a year.

“It’s that season where there’s snow starting to accumulate,” he said.

But still, those residents that found themselves

scrambling to get the snow shovels out or the snow tires on the car are not alone. Lundquist suspects the lingering summer had many not thinking about winter until it literally hit the area hard.

“I think it caught us somewhat off guard,” he said.

Based out of Kelowna, Lundquist said they expect their first dump of snow in mid-November, but higher up in the Rockies in Cranbrook winter can be expected several weeks earlier. The white stuff doesn’t often remain for long before it melts and then falls again, however.

“Cranbrook’s usually a few weeks early,” he said.

“It usually comes or goes.”

Those set to travel in the coming weeks are urged to get their vehicles prepped and properly equipped with winter tires.

The Canadian Rockies International Airport reported 9 cm of snow at 6 a.m. Tuesday morning.

Lundquist said that number could vary across the city and the higher mountainous areas.

Cranbrook protesters form Dynamiter Barry ‘Ginger’ Craig unbroken wall of opposition Kimberley hockey history

ANTHONY DR ANSFELD For the Bulletin

Annalee Grant Townsman Staff

Protestors in Cranbrook joined thousands across the province Wednesday outside MLA Bill Bennett and MP David Wilks’ offices Wednesday for the Defend our Coast day of action.

The protest followed demonstrations in Victoria on Monday that gathered thousands at the B.C. Legislature to oppose pipelines proposed by Kinder Morgan and Enbridge.

In Cranbrook, “We stand in solidarity the Ktunaxa word with First Nations for earth, ?amak, was chanted over organizations and the honking of car other British horns as the gathered protestors Columbians,” she said. linked arms to sym“I think it is critical bolize an unbroken wall of opposition. that our message of Adrienne Campbell concern is delivered to was one of the organizers of the local both levels of event.

“It’s different Kathryn Teneese communities taking up one voice to have a stronger message,” she said, adding that Cranbrook residents could be affected by any fallout from the proposed pipelines. “We eat the fish that comes from the coast. We don’t just live here.”

Campbell, a mother of two from Kimberley, was joined by her daughter Finlay at the protest.

She said she had a duty to leave a better province for future generations.

“I want to leave a community and a province young people can enjoy,” Campbell said.

Ktunaxa Nation Chair Kathryn Teneese attended the rally Wednesday, speaking to the crowd and chiming in with calls of ?amak.

“This situation not only affects Northern British Columbia, but all of B.C.,” Teneese said. “We want to protect our wild and diverse province for our children.”

Campbell said there were a number of different people at the protest, and the pipeline issue is one that spans many diversities.

“I think that crosses all boundaries and all diversities,” she said. “It’s powerful seeing this many people come together.”

In the crowd was a new Kimberley resident, Anisa, who held a sign that read “My hometown is not for sale. I love Kitimat.” The seven-year-old said she use to live in the Northern B.C. community that is the proposed end point of the Northern Gateway Pipeline before moving to Kimberley a year and a half ago.

Teneese said the Ktunaxa Nation supports their fellow First Nations in Northern B.C. “We stand in solidarity with First Nations organizations and other British Columbians,” she said.

“I think it is critical that our message of concern is delivered to both levels of government. Today it’s the north – where next?”

Ask any Old Timer about Barry “ Ginger “ Craig, the hardrock Kimberley Dynamiter (Senior A) defenceman who patrolled the blueline for the Nitros from 1953 to 1961, coming to Kimberley from Junior hockey in the Crowsnest (Bellevue Coalers).

Even by today’s standards Barr,y or Ginger as most people called him, was a big defenceman, who was a smooth skater and very adept at the art of the hip check, but Ginger could certainly clear out traffic in front of the Dynamiter net too. “Ginger” also played up on the forward line when called upon.

Census data

English still No. 1 language in Kimberley The C anadian Press

OTTAWA - Kimberley remains overwhelmingly a unilingual community, new census data shows — ­ evidence that as major metropolitan cities grow ever more multicultural and multilingual, the dominant mother tongue in many parts of the country remains one of Canada’s official languages.

English was identified as the mother tongue for 92.5 per cent of people in Kimberley, Statistics Can-

ada said Wednesday as it released new information on languages from the 2011 census. French, Canada’s other official language, was cited by 1.4 per cent.

A total of 6.2 per cent of the population of Kimberley reported a mother tongue other than one of Canada’s official languages.

That’s a decrease from 10.8 per cent in the 2006 census.

According to the 2011 census, the top five non-official languages spoken in Kimberley: German (2.1

per cent); Italian (0.5 per cent); Dutch (0.4 per cent); one of the Chinese languages (0.3 per cent); and Ukrainian (0.3 per cent). Five years ago, the census reported the top five other languages spoken were German, Italian, Hungarian, Polish and Japanese.

Statistics Canada defines mother tongue as the first language learned at home in childhood and still understood at the time the census was taken in May 2011. The census also documented languages spoken at home

and knowledge of Canada’s official languages.

In Canada’s major metropolitan cities, the linguistic breakdown was dramatically different. About half of the population of Toronto (46.1 per cent) and Vancouver (46.7 per cent) reported a mother tongue other than English or French, while cities like Montreal (34.4 per cent) and Calgary (27.9 per cent) also reported a significant proportion of residents with mother tongues other than either of Canada’s two

Celebrating with Community Living BC From Page 3 “As our government works towards improving services and supports, it’s important to help people understand what it means to live with a developmental disability.” Stilwell said.

“People with developmental disabilities want choice and respect - and expect to live, work and participate in their communities like everyone else.”

She appreciates the opportunity to meet face to face and get to know the people involved.

“Every region has a

unique history in this area,” she said. “But in general Community Living BC is a recognized leader in providing support so developmentally disabled adults can lead a good life. BC is recognized as a leader in community based services.”

The main goal, she says, is to make sure people have more choices than they did before — choices in living arrangements, more opportunities for employment, more chances to live fully integrated with their community.

official languages.

Statistics Canada noted a change in the response patterns for some of the mother tongue data for the 2011 census. Previously, language questions were asked only on what was known as the long form census, which went to just 20 per cent of the population. Last year, the government did away with the long form questionnaire and put the language question on the census that went to all Canadians.

As a result of the change in methodology, Statistics Canada reported that Canadians appear to have been less inclined than in previous years to report languages other than French or English as their only mother tongue — and also more inclined to list multiple languages as their mother tongue

and the language used most often at home.

Across Canada, a total of 57.8 per cent of the population spoke English, 21.7 per cent spoke French and 20.6 per cent spoke other languages. The proportion of Canadians speaking one of the country’s official languages has decreased over the years as the immigrant population has increased.

The top “non-official’’ languages spoken in Canada: one of the Chinese languages (3.3 per cent); Punjabi (1.3 per cent); Spanish (1.3 per cent); Italian (1.3 per cent) and German (1.3 per cent).

In total, the 2011 census reported 191 different languages as mother tongues among the country’s population. Canada is one of the few countries in the world that counts language in its census.

Letters to the Editor What a birthday On behalf of my brothers, Gale and Brent, and myself, I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Mayor Stetski and the players and fans of the Kootenay Ice for making our mother’s 95th birthday so memorable.

Ruby Sinclair is, indeed, the #1 fan of the Ice. She is also, however, the #1 fan of the City of Cranbrook. We are very thankful that attending Ice games and cheering with pride for the team that represents the city she loves continues to give our mother so much joy... indeed, we believe that the games help keep her as young as she is!

Thanks again, and... GO ICE GO!!!

Chinese workers Bennett quote: “Recently the Government of Canada have approved some temporary foreign workers to come to BC.” ‘Some’ is 200 right now, over the next four years, up to 2000 are slated to be brought

into B.C. to work in the initial phases of four proposed underground coal mines, owned

by Chinese mining company Dehua International Mines Group, near Tumbler Ridge, B.C. They’ll be sampling now and permanently working if and when the mines go into production.

Premier Christy Clark claimed on a trade mission in November 2011 to China that “these projects support our B.C. Jobs Plan and according to the companies will create over 6,700 jobs and other economic benefits for British Columbians.”

How naïve of me to expect that those jobs would be jobs for Canadians. Premier Clark didn’t include how many guest workers would be among the 6,700.

Jobs Minister Pat Bell claimed last year that Canadian mining companies simply don’t have the expertise to conduct underground coal mining operations. We’ve been mining coal in this country – underground or surface – for over 150 years. To say that we don’t have the ‘expertise’ doesn’t cut it and it’s also a cop-out.

The unemployment rate in B.C. is seven per cent. In the

Prince George region it’s 6.9 per cent. Across Canada the number is 7.4 per cent. Is Minister Bell trying to tell the people of B.C. – and Canada – that there are not enough unemployed workers to fill those jobs?

As we know well in this region, high-paying coal-mining jobs are the bread and butter here. The average wage in mining is over $28/hour (here it’s closer to $32), but the federal Conservative government – the body that oversees and regulates guest workers – has allowed the Chinese owners to pay those guest workers 15 per cent less than the average wage.

These are guest workers.

They stay in camps and send their wages home to China.

They do not buy houses in our communities, buy cars, food in our grocery stores, quads or snow machines for recreation or contribute to the tax base that a Canadian worker would.

Given the horrendous amount of people that die in the Chinese coal mines (50,000 between 2001-2011; 359 dead and 94 missing so far in 2012 with 85 alone in August – source; US Mine Rescue Association), the reasoning that the

Chinese have ‘expertise’ in coal mining is almost laughable.

Workers in coal mines die there, a lot. Expertise isn’t the first word that comes to mind.

What happens the first time a guest worker invokes his right to refuse unsafe work? If he`s even aware of the law, I’m sure he’ll be on the first plane back home.

They were advertised on the Chinese version of Craigslist.

Online news source, The Tyee, investigated. A reporter posing as a potential applicant was told that a fee totalling $12,000 would be required. What year is this? 1880? That sounds suspiciously like a head-tax to me.

We all understand the shortages of skilled workers but it doesn’t give the B.C. and Canadian governments carte blanche to let companies, foreign-owned or not, hire guest workers without first exhausting all avenues in this country.

We used to train the workers we need.

These are public resources being mined. They should be mined by people who live here.

Period.

“U.S.-style politics”: by that, you mean good?

Michael Den Tandt Postmedia News

A

merican democracy is terribly broken, correct? Canadians know this to be true. There are the glitz, the attack ads, the “politics of personal destruction,” and money, money, money. In Canada, “U.S.-style politics” has become an easy shorthand for everything bad, corrupt, doomed.

Why, then, have the U.S. presidential debates been such an extraordinary, even inspiring display of intelligent democracy in action - whereas north of the 49th parallel, in sainted, morally pure and on-theside-of-the-angels Canada, democracy is falling apart? Here’s one possible reason: American politicos have the courage of their convictions. Canadians, as reflected through the prism of all three major parties, have lost theirs.

Let’s begin by acknowledging the obvious: The televised presidential debates concluded Monday night, indeed the entire recent cycle of U.S. public politics including the Republican and Democratic conventions, have been a tour de force.

The quality of rhetoric, of subtle argument informed by passion and reason, in both parties, has been at a level this year that exceeds anything I can remember in the United States and anything anywhere now around the world.

There is nothing like the endlessly long, grotesquely expensive U.S. primary system for beating a candidate to a pulp, until he or she either collapses from intellectual, emotional and financial exhaustion or takes their political art to a new level.

Obama the presidential contender was

created by his bruising 2007-2008 battle with Hillary Clinton. Mitt Romney was transformed by his own primary beatings from Silver Spoon Boy into a legitimate and serious contender for the most important job on earth.

This is the proof that U.S. democracy still, somehow despite its flaws, works: Romney entered the televised debates with his campaign in tatters, the butt of jokes. But then, in the first televised debate, a complacent Obama stumbled, and Romney rose. Then came the second presidential contest, with Obama and Romney circling each other like wolves, interrupting, cutting in. Obama won that, narrowly.

And finally came Monday, which most observers agree was a slam-dunk for Obama.

When has there ever been a political debate of comparable intensity, depth, and breadth, in modern Canadian history?

There is, of course, the famous MulroneyTurner fracas in 1984 (“You had an option, sir!”) which effectively made Mulroney prime minister. Since then, though, precious little; Canadian political debates are by comparison small, careful affairs with candidates neatly contained behind their podiums, and involving too many players for a telling exchange.

Moreover, in Canada, senior politicians increasingly are uncomfortable with free debate - at any level. Public policy dissent within a party is considered impolite. Party discipline ensures it almost never happens and that, when it does, it is swiftly tamped out. For instance: Are any New Democrat MPs uncomfortable with leader Tom Mulcair’s characterization of the Alberta oil patch as a net negative for the country?

Undoubtedly. But don’t expect to hear from them.

For Conservatives and Liberals it’s even more egregious. The Harper government now rules by omnibus bill, rendering debate about specific legislative measures pointless or impossible. In Victoria, Premier Christy Clark shuts down the B.C. legislature, decrying its “sick” culture. In Toronto Premier Dalton McGuinty does the same, arguing the work of government is too vital to be encumbered by the tawdry bickering of a parliamentary system. And the federal Liberals, all but Gerard Kennedy, duck for cover, as though this is too complex a question for them to judge. It’s not complex. They are cowards for ducking.

Here’s what should happen: MPs and members of provincial legislatures, who are paid by the people to uphold the people’s interests, should assert their rights.

They should insist on retaining or reclaiming their traditional powers as parliamentarians, and not be denied, or they should quit their respective parties. But they don’t, because all live in fear of losing place and position. God forbid, they might be denied nomination papers at the next go-round.

They go along, to get along.

No question, the U.S system has flaws.

But no one can credibly argue, after watching this series of debates, that it isn’t vibrant democracy, fractious and beautiful.

In Canada, we can’t say that - not any more. Our democracy, besmirched by talking points, accommodation for the sake of power and decrees, is a pale shadow of what it was.

Next to America’s offerings this year, it is simply sad.

Sandoval’s 3 home runs boost Giants 8-3 over Tigers BEN WALKER Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO — With three mighty swings, Pablo Sandoval put the San Francisco Giants ahead in this World Series and put himself in a class with Mr. October.

Sandoval hit three home runs and joined Reggie Jackson, Babe Ruth and Albert Pujols as the only sluggers to do it in the Series, and the Giants jolted Justin Verlander and the Detroit Tigers 8-3 on Wednesday night in Game 1.

A rollicking AT&T Park crowd — a sea of black and orange outfits — roared as Sandoval connected in his first three at-bats. Popular in the Bay Area as the Kung Fu Panda for his rolypoly shape, he went 4 for 4 and drove in four runs.

A Giant panda for sure.

From start to finish, it was basically a perfect game by the Giants.

Coming off a Game 7 win over St. Louis on Monday night, they looked totally fresh.

“We played our last game only two days ago,’’ Sandoval said. “We’re still hot. We just came here and played our game.’’

Verlander, the reigning Cy Young winner so dominant in this postseason, looked uncomfortable from the get-go and constantly pawed at the mound.

As fans filed out singing along with Tony Bennett’s standard “I Left My Heart in San Francisco,’’ the final score raised a nagging question for manager Jim Leyland and his favoured Tigers: Did too much rest after a playoff sweep of the Yankees mean too much rust?

Tagged by Sandoval for a solo shot in the first inning, Verlander could only mouth ‘Wow!’ when the Giants star launched a two-run drive in the third that set off another blast of fog horns. Sandoval reprised his power show from this year’s All-Star game, when his basesloaded triple highlighted a five-run first inning against Verlander.

And if there was any doubt that Verlander was shaky, the best sign came in the fourth.

That’s when pitcher Barry Zito, a career .099 hitter, sliced an RBI single with two outs off the current AL MVP for a 5-0 lead.

KEYSA AGM We hope all of our KEYSA soccer teams had a great season.

Now, it’s time to finish up for 2012 and start planning for 2013.

Kootenay East Youth Soccer Association will be holding their AGM on Monday, October 29th at 7:00 pm at Mount Baker Library Library.

We will be trialing an amalgamated soccer board this year, and voting for one Board that will oversee Cranbrook Youth Soccer, Kimberley Youth Soccer and KEYSA. Thank you all for your support – see you at the AGM.

Regina Pats goaltender Teagan Sacher watches the puck sail wide of the net while Kootenay Ice forward Sam Reinhart lurks outside of the crease during WHL action at Western Financial Place on Wednesday evening.

Regina Pats shut out Ice 3-0 TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

The Kootenay Ice got their first taste of being on the other side of a shutout this year, as the Pats skated away with a 3-0 win Wednesday night at Western Financial Place.

Pats’ sniper Lane Scheidl scored two goals, while Colten Mayor added his fourth of the season to the scoresheet.

Tegan Sacher, who manned the crease for Regina, made 28 saves, while Mackenzie Skapski stopped 17 shots for Kootenay.

The win snaps a two-game losing streak for Regina, while adding a third loss in a row for the Ice. “It’s nice to get the win,” said Adam Rossignol, a Pats forward

and former Ice product.

“We’ve had a lot of travel the last couple days so coming into Cranbrook, we knew it wasn’t going to be an easy game but I thought we came out and played a good 60 [minutes].”

And coming back to his old barn is always nice, even if he’s wearing a different jersey.

“I got a lot of great memories here and some good buddies on the other team there,” Rossignol continued.

“It’s always cool to come back and see them.”

Scheidl’s first period goal was the only power play marker in three opportunities for Regina, while Kootenay failed to covert on all three of theirs.

The first period started off with some

rough stuff as Joey Leach ad Dyson Stevenson got tangled up in the corner and threw down the gloves.

Seven minutes later, Spencer Wand and Trent Ouellette got into it in front of the Regina bench. Wand dropped the gloves to fight, but Ouellette tried to weather the hail of fists.

The end result was a five-minute major for the Ice defenceman and a two-minute minor for Ouellette, which gave the Pats a 3-minute power play.

Regina capitalized on that power play, when Scheidl split the Kootenay defence while entering the zone and sneaked a backhand past Skapski.

Sacher went down after taking a shot from Erik Benoit off the

throat, but the young net minder got up after talking for a few minutes with the trainer and resumed his duties in the crease.

The Pats scored again early in the second when Colten Mayor roofed a shot over Skapski, who was sprawled in the crease from making a previous save.

Scheidl got his second of the game off an odd-man rush, snapping a shot into the net with three minutes to go in the frame.

Although the Ice made some great individual efforts throughout the game, Kootenay couldn’t get past a Regina defence that was shutting everything down.

Rossignol’s journey to the Pats was a strange

experience for him.

The former Ice forward was sent to the Swift Current Broncos near the January 10th trade deadline last season in a straight-up deal for current Ice defenceman Tanner Muth. Rossignol played the remainder of the season with the Broncos, but the club released him during training camp in September.

However, it wasn’t long till the Pats came knocking.

“That was kind of a shocker there, what happened there in the beginning of the year,” said Rossignol, “but I was really thankful that Regina gave me the chance and it’s going well so far.

“I think we got bright things coming for us this year so I’m looking forward to it.”

Regina head coach Pat Conacher has got him all over his lineup, including speciality teams, as Rossignol feels he’s a versatile player.

“I kill some penalties, I’m on the power play, I play all three forward positions now, so wherever Pat needs me, I’ll play for him.”

Blue Jackets add new face to front office Rust y Miller Associated Press

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Unlike many people in hockey, John Davidson wasn’t afraid of the losing tradition of the Columbus Blue Jackets.

“I like the idea of the challenge. I mean, it’s possible. In fact, it’s something we’re going to do,’’ Davidson said Wednesday after being hired as the Blue Jackets’ new president of hockey operations.

The former player, Hall of Fame broadcaster and St. Louis Blues president believes he can transform a franchise with just one, brief trip to the post-season into a Stanley Cup contender.

“The hardest part is to go through the ups and downs of getting a club to get back on its feet and going in the right direction,’’ he said.

“But if you have the right mentality, where your players understand how hard they have to work, we’ll do well.

“We’ll win our share.

As we move along here, we’ll win more than our share.’’

Davidson will take over a new position.

The former president, Mike Priest, will now concentrate only on the business side of a team that had the worst record in the NHL last season (29-46-7, 65 points).

The 59-year-old Davidson served as president of the Blues for the past seven years. He left the Blues when new owner Tom Stillman bought out his contract in an effort to cut costs in the front office.

He will report directly to Blue Jackets majority owner John P. McConnell and will oversee general manager Scott Howson, who has come under fire for the team’s disastrous play and dwindling attendance in recent years.

Priest said Davidson would have ``full authority and autonomy over the competitive side’’ of the franchise.

Howson could not say precisely how the

two would work together but figured that would all work itself out.

“This is all about the Columbus Blue Jackets getting better,’’ Howson said. “That’s what I want to do and John makes us better.’’

McConnell liked Davidson’s track record.

“He took over an organization that was losing,’’ he said, “and turned it into one that is winning.’’

The Blue Jackets have had losing records in 10 of their 11 seasons.

Their only respite was a short, four-game playoff sweep by Detroit in

2009. Their coach at the time was Ken Hitchcock, later hired by Davidson and the Blues after he was fired by Columbus. Hitchcock now is in charge of a Blues team that a year ago finished second in the Western Conference with 109 points.

Cranbrook bantams engineer comeback to tie Wheatland Submit ted

The Cranbrook ‘Cranbrook Pest Control’ Bantam Hornets scored three, third-period goals to salvage a 3-3 tie with the Wheatland (Strathmore, AB) Warriors Sunday afternoon at the Memorial Arena in Cranbrook.

After a scoreless first period the visitors opened the scoring at 14:45 with a deflection

by Regan Kinley. Just over a minute later Andrew Bretin gave the visitors a 2-0 lead headed into the third peri-

od.

In the third Liam Murphy got the ‘AA’ C.P.C. Hornets back into the game with a wrist shot at 2:54. The Hornets tied it less than two minutes later with a deflection by James Rota. Jayden Jefferson and Shawn Kiedyk notched the assists. At 11:31 the hometown Hornets took the lead when Korbyn Chabot banged in the rebound off a shot by Jake Bromley. Mitchell Anderson added the other assist.

The visitors tied the

game at 3 at 12:55 when Kinley deflected his second of the game.

Hornets goaltender Robert Nickell stopped 27 of 30 shots to earn the tie.

The Cranbrook C.P.C. Hornets sit 3rd in the AA South Cental Alberta Hockey League South Division standings with a 4-4-2 record and will travel to Brooks next Saturday before returning home to host the Innisfail Flyers Sunday at the Memorial Arena. Gametime is 3:30 p.m.

Yosemite rangers rescue Canadian climber C anadian Press

YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK, Calif. _ A Canadian climber stranded in a snowstorm was recuperating Tuesday from a mild case of hypothermia after Yosemite National Park rangers rescued him from the face of the largest granite monolith in the world.

The 40-year-old climber was stuck 230 feet below the summit of iconic El Capitan late Sunday and unable to deploy a rain-deflecting cover when California’s first winter snowstorm of the season struck, park officials said. Temperatures dipped into the 20s, as four to six inches of snow fell.

YOUR CITY WORKING FOR YOU! FALL DEER MATING SEASON APPROACHING; RESIDENTS URGED TO BE AWARE Residents and visitors are advised to continue to exercise both caution and common sense this fall, as the late autumn deer mating (rutting) period begins. That is the message from the City of Cranbrook.

In the weeks leading up to the rut (into November and December) bucks increase their displays of dominance and indirect threats.

A dominant buck typically circles a rival with deliberate steps; back arched, head low and tail flicking. Bucks can also display dominance by violently thrashing the bushes with their antlers.

“We are into a transition period, where some does with fawns remain wary and potentially aggressive toward humans with dogs,” says Mayor Wayne Stetski. “Now we will likely also see an increase of particularly aggressive acts from the local urban buck population. Residents are reminded to please give deer plenty of space to move or leave the area. Do not walk closer to the deer; find another route.”

Once there, ranger Ben Doyle and rescue crew member Matt Othmer lowered ranger Aaron Smith to the climber, who was suffering then from exhaustion and mild hypother-

UK will defy demand to allow prisoners to vote C anadian Press

LONDON – British Prime Minister David Cameron insists he won’t comply with an order from European judges to grant prisoners in the U.K. the right to vote, setting up a new clash with the continent’s authorities.

Attorney General Dominic Grieve earlier

on Wednesday told a Parliamentary committee that the U.K. was obliged to follow the judgment, and could face lawsuits from prisoners if it did not.

But Cameron later told lawmakers he had no intention of complying.

“No one should be in any doubt. Prisoners are

not getting the vote under this government,’’ he said.

The European Court of Human Rights ruled in 2010 that Britain must overturn a centuries-old law and allow prisoners to vote in national elections.

At the time, Cameron said the decision had made him feel “physically ill.’’

Despite the movies, books, historical references and personal delving into his story, there is much that is still a mystery about the story of Dracula -- the mythological figure purported to feed on the blood of unsuspecting victims.

The blood-sucking

being explored in the novel by Bram Stoker is believed to have been loosely based on an individual from Romania credited with heinous and bloody crimes.

The Romanian word “drac,” derived from the Latin word “draco,” means both dragon and devil.

Vlad III was a prince

who spent much of his rule campaigning against the Ottoman Empire and its expansion. He was well known for impaling his enemies, and his reputation for his excessive cruelty grew throughout Europe. He was likely dubbed “Dracula” thanks to his family name.

Small Business Accord Announced

Kamloops, October 22, 2012 – The BC Chamber of Commerce and the Hon. Naomi Yamamoto, Minister of State for Small Business, have announced a consultation process to create a Small Business Accord.

“This Accord will ensure that the government is held accountable for its actions in regulating business,” said John Winter, President & CEO of the British Columbia Chamber of Commerce. “Through an extensive consultation process with small businesses across the province the government will develop a regulations framework to reduce red tape and help make BC the most business-friendly jurisdiction in the country.”

This initiative was started by the BC Chamber of Commerce when it sent a letter to Minister Yamamoto supporting the establishment of a Small Business Accord in BC. The importance of small business to the economic vitality and prosperity of BC cannot be overstated. BC has a strong reliance on small business with a full 98% of all businesses in BC being either self-employed or having 50 employees or less. Small business employs over 1 million British Columbians, representing 57% of all private sector jobs in the province.

“This is another example of this government’s excellent record of recognizing the importance of the small business sector and creating initiatives to help it to grow,” continued Winter. “This accord will create a significant reduction in the red tape small businesses face.”

Freedom. Comfort.

Piece of mind. www.falkins.com

The BC Chamber is the largest and most broadly based business organization in the province. Representing over 120 Chambers of Commerce and 32,000 businesses of every size, sector and region of the province the BC Chamber of Commerce is “The Voice of Business in BC.”

Everyone had a great time at the networking event on October 17 sponsored by the Canadian Rockies International Airport.

Teck’s third quarter revenue plummets C ANADIAN PRESS

VANCOUVER _ Teck Resources Ltd. has slashed its capital spending for this year and next by a total of $1.5 billion and said Wednesday it will look to cut annual operating costs by at least $200 million amid the sluggish global economy.

The Vancouverbased miner of copper, coal and other metals announced the cuts as it reported sharply lower profits and revenue compared with a year ago due to lower commodity prices and sales volumes for steelmaking coal.

“Notwithstanding our strong financial position, some of our planned capital spending has been deferred for a variety of reasons,’’ Teck president and chief executive Don Lindsay said in a statement noting the company had a $4.2-billion cash balance.

Teck reported a profit of $180 million or 31 cents per diluted share in the three months ended Sept. 30, down from $814 million or $1.37 in the same 2011 period. Revenue for the three months ended Sept. 30 was $2.5 billion, down from $3.38 billion.

Adjusted profit was $349 million, or 60 cents per share, down from $742 million, or $1.26 per share.

Analyst estimates compiled by Thomson Reuters had on average called for revenue of $2.56 billion, with adjusted earnings of 61 cents per share.

The deferred capital spending plans included lower spending on the Quebrada Blanca Phase 2 copper project and the Quintette coal project and a delay in the Relincho copper project. Teck also said it will delay development of the Fort Hills oilsands project and defer construction of a slag fuming furnace in Trail, B.C. The deferrals will amount to about $300 million for 2012 and $1.2 billion in 2013.

As a result, Teck said it expects to spend $1.8 billion on capital expenditures for 2012, down from an earlier estimate of $2.1 billion and its original guidance of $2.3 billion.

For the most recent quarter, Teck reported copper revenue of $763

million, down from $808 million a year ago, while coal revenue fell to $1.08 billion, down from $1.72

billion. Zinc revenue slipped to $644 million from $855 million.

The average price for

copper fell 14 per cent compared with a year ago, while the company’s realized coal price

was down by a third.

Zinc prices were down 15 per cent.

Copper production

totalled 99,000 tonnes, up from 77,000 tonnes in the third quarter of 2011, while coal produc-

tion increased to 6.3 million tonnes, up from roughly six million tonnes a year ago.

Germany vows to fight Gypsy discrimination Geir Moulson Associated Press

BERLIN – Germany opened a long-awaited memorial Wednesday to the hundreds of thousands of Gypsies, or Roma, who were killed by the Nazis and pledged

to fight the discrimination the minority still faces in Europe.

Chancellor Angela Merkel and President Joachim Gauck inaugurated the memorial at an official ceremony in Berlin’s Tiergarten park. De-

signed by Israeli artist Dani Karavan, it features a water-filled basin with a retractable, triangleshaped column at its centre that will be topped by a fresh flower every day.

Montreal girls find fame in a bottle Rene Bruemmer Postmedia News

A message sealed in a bottle and cast into the sea by two Montreal girls eight years ago has brought them fame and a free trip.

The girls, now 20, were particularly surprised because when they threw it into the waters of the St. Lawrence River outside the Quebec town of Grande Vallee, the tide kept bringing it back.

“Maybe it will get free eventually,” Claudia Garneau said she thought at the time.

The bottle washed up last week in the town of Passage East on the southern tip of Ireland.

The tides were “super high” last Wednesday, washing the ocean’s detritus of trees and driftwood and plastic pop bottles up around the houses of the town’s 800 residents. Nine-year-old Oisin Millea did as he

often does, and started prospecting for bounty the next day. He picked up the bottle, thinking there was something beneath it, and saw the note inside.

“He’s always searching for bits of treasure,” said his mother, Aoife Millea. “And that was treasure for him.”

“06/2004,” said the handwritten note, in French. “Hello, we are two girls who had the idea to launch a bottle into the sea. We are called Charlaine and Claudia. We are both 12 and we live in Montreal.

We are on vacation in the Gaspesie, in the village of Grande Vallee. If you find our bottle, tell us when and how you found our bottle.”

They included an email address, but it was no longer in service.

Their message had bobbed for untold miles on its eight-year passage from Grande Vallee to

Passage East, roughly 4,000 kilometres apart.

But Charlaine and Claudia couldn’t be found.

The Montreal Gazette carried a story about Oisin’s find written by Noel Baker of the Irish Examiner on Monday, asking for anyone with information about Charlaine and Claudia to please get in touch. An anglophone friend of Charlaine saw the story and contacted her on Facebook.

“I’m curious,” he said.

“Could this be you?”

By Monday night,

CANTON, Ohio _ A U.S. teenager who’s been growing his hair for a charity is being punished by his school because administrators say his long locks violate the dress code.

Seventeen-year-old Zachary Aufderheide is serving a two-day inschool suspension at Canton South High School in Ohio this week.

He’s been growing out his hair for Locks of Love,

which uses donated hair to make hairpieces for kids who have lost their own due to disease.

Aufderheide had told the school of his intentions, but on Monday he was told he would be suspended. His hair is an inch away from the 10 inches needed to donate to the charity.

Canton Local School Board President John Martin said while he respects the student’s efforts, rules are rules.

Dalpe and Garneau, who are still friends, had written to The Gazette to say “c’est nous.”

On Tuesday, they were speaking to Irish radio, television and several newspapers. One set up a Skype call between Dalpe and Garneau, in Montreal, and Oisin, in Ireland.

“It was great,” Oisin said Tuesday of his chat with the girls.

Tourism Ireland will cover the airfare and hotels for a one-week trip to Ireland to see their bottle again.

Another U.S. candidate chided for rape comments Tom Lobianco Associated Press

NEW ALBANY, Ind. – Another Republican running for U.S. Senate has angered voters after telling a live television audience that when a woman becomes pregnant during a rape, ``that’s something God intended.’’

Indiana Senate candidate Richard Mourdock, who’s been locked in one of the country’s most expensive and closely watched races, was asked during a debate Tuesday whether abortion should be allowed in cases of rape or incest. ``I struggled with it myself for a long time, but I came to realize that life is that gift from God. And, I think, even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something that God intended to happen,’’ Mourdock said.

Mourdock became the second Republican Senate candidate to find

Senate candidate Richard Mourdock is the latest Republican to draw ire for controversial abortion comments. himself on the defensive over comments about rape and pregnancy.

Missouri Senate candidate Todd Akin said in August that women’s bodies have ways of preventing pregnancy in cases of what he called ``legitimate rape.’’ Akin has repeatedly apologized but has refused to leave his race despite calls to do so by leaders

of his own party, including Mitt Romney.

Romney distanced himself from Mourdock on Tuesday night, a day after a television ad featuring him supporting Mourdock began airing in Indiana. ``Gov. Romney disagrees with Richard Mourdock’s comments, and they do not reflect his views,’’ Romney

spokeswoman Andrea Saul said in an email to The Associated Press.

Romney aides would not say whether the ad would be pulled and if the Republican presidential nominee would continue to support Mourdock’s Senate bid.

Mourdock’s comments shake Republicans as they try to gain a majority in the Senate.

Republicans need to gain three seats, or four if President Barack Obama wins re-electio.

Obama campaign spokeswoman Jennifer Psaki said Obama finds Richard Mourdock’s comments ``outrageous and demeaning to women.’’

Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz called on Romney to take his proMourdock ad off the air.

after the debate that he did not believe God intended the rape but that God is the only one who can create life. ``Are you trying to suggest somehow that God preordained rape, no I don’t think that,’’ Mourdock said. ``Anyone who would suggest that is just sick and twisted. No, that’s not even close to what I said.’’

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You need to be aware of what ails a key person in your life; you probably can make a difference.

Tension will build, so pull back and choose a relaxing activity in the meantime. Your understanding and insight will help this person.

Tonight: An important talk.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Zero in on a friendship that you really enjoy. This person gives you powerful feedback and often opens the path to good times.

It appears as if pressure builds around a financial issue. You and someone else just do not see eye to eye. Tonight: Where the fun is.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You might feel as if you need to make an impression on a boss or someone you look up to. A person you care about could be quite fiery and difficult. You cannot put a lid on this situation, so you might as well listen to what he or she has to say. Tonight: Wherever you are, expect to be noticed.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

You will want to detach and get to the bottom of a disagreement.

What seems logical to one person might not be to someone else.

Your instincts serve you well, and perhaps it would be a smart idea not to ask too many questions right now. Tonight: Where there is music.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Stay close to a partner or associate.

The two of you work better as a team. Your creativity flourishes with this person, and often he or she helps tame your ideas. Opportunities seem to come to you from out of left field. Test them out before saying “yes.” Tonight: Catch up on a friend’s news over dinner.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Defer to others, and you will find out a lot more. When you do that, the assumption is that you approve of a person’s performance or actions, which may or may not be true. Regardless, this person will relax, and you will see more authentic behavior as a result. Tonight: Ask for feedback.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Maintain a low profile, and you will see much more of what is hap-

pening around you. You have a lot to do and accomplish. Reach out to someone who demonstrates intellectual dependability and optimism. You put your essence into your work, a project and whatever else you are involved with. Tonight: Working into the wee hours.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Listen to the blend of imagination and intellect within yourself. Express those thoughts in a way that someone else can understand. You will stir up a lot of excitement involving a strong associate. Someone comes to the rescue before you know it. Tonight: Ever playful.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Anchor in and handle a domestic or investment issue. Trust that you will make a good decision that advances your interests. Opportunities bloom because of your serious attitude and willingness to open up. You express yourself with clarity and caring. Tonight: At home.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Remain sure of yourself when dealing with others. You have the ability to understand when someone is off in his or her decision and cannot see it. You’ll use the right

words and help this person realize where there is a problem. Tonight: Meet with friends.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You could be a bit extravagant with spending or with your emotions. No one will mind, except for a friend who might be just a tad jealous. Your very playful side emerges, which allows for great fun wherever you are. You verbalize some strong feelings. Others get it. Tonight: No one is stopping you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You smile, and others respond.

Use your high charisma to draw in more of what you want. No one wants to argue with you; in fact, others wish they were you. A family member lets you know how very appreciated you are. Tonight: Make the most of the moment.

Rhymes with Orange

Annie’s Mailbox

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: A few years ago, I met the most amazing man. “Jim” is the love of my life. I fell in love with his family, too.

The problem is, after a year of marriage, I received a text message from my mother-in-law (Jim’s stepmother) stating that his family has never wanted me around and they don’t like me. I get along with Jim’s siblings, all of whom live out of town, and they have assured me that they do not feel this way.

Jim works away from home for weeks at a time. When he is away, I am not invited to family dinners and outings the way I am when he is here. Then, I feel unwelcome when they do include both of us. I have told Jim that I will no longer attend his family functions. But is this fair to him? Is there anything I can do to rectify the situation? Should I ask Jim to speak to his father? I would hate to cut this good man out of my life. -- Hurt in Pennsylvania Dear Hurt: What a nasty bunch you’ve married into. Even if Jim’s stepmother is the only one who dislikes you, the others are following her directives. Your husband should make it clear to all of them that you are his family now, and they should treat you with respect and consideration, or they risk losing both of you.

Meanwhile, have you invited his siblings and parents to your home? Hospitality works both ways. Do your best to ingratiate yourself and see whether it helps before you throw in the towel.

Dear Annie: My cousin’s bat mitzvah was held at a resort in the middle of nowhere. Getting there would have involved a long train ride, plus the hotel costs, and I would have had to share a room with my parents (I’m 35). I politely declined.

My aunt and uncle are well off, and I only work part time. I prefer to save my money.

Recently, I received an invitation to their daughter’s wedding. This would mean a tremendous amount of money on my part, plus I’d have to take off from work. So I RSVP’d that I couldn’t come.

Now my aunt thinks I’m being unreasonable. She says I’m alienating my family.

I say my aunt and uncle aren’t being fair to their guests. Shouldn’t we be allowed to save our money and vacation days for our own leisure? These “destination weddings” can be a problem. When another cousin married, I attended, but didn’t give a gift because it cost me $150 just to get there. Isn’t that enough? -- New York Dear New York: Not really. We agree that destination weddings are often a burden on the guests, so if you cannot afford to attend, it’s OK to decline. But you should send a gift or a card with your sincere good wishes. And when you do come to these events, a gift is expected.

It doesn’t have to be expensive. Offer to take candid photographs for the couple.

Or get them a bottle of inexpensive sparkling wine. Write them a poem and frame it. Use your imagination.

Dear Annie: “No Name Anywhere” wanted to tactfully ask her boyfriend to remove the personal effects of his late wife. You suggested she offer to help and said, “If he has children, perhaps they would like to go through her belongings.”

She should insist on it.

When my dear mother-in-law passed away, my father-in-law’s new wife promptly donated everything to a thrift store. Dad didn’t care. The children, however, were not pleased that so many treasured items were gone without their having had a chance to go through them. This put additional strain on forging a relationship with a new stepmother. -- Been There Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Robot Hall of Fame inducts new members

There are several opportunities for public participation and involvement in the City of Cranbrook advisory committees listed below.

Membership is open to residents of the City of Cranbrook.

Advisory Planning Commission The Advisory Planning Commission advises Council on matters respecting land use, community planning or proposed bylaws and permits. Two positions are available.

C anadian Press

Athletic Commission

PITTSBURGH _ The Robot Hall of Fame has four new members, including WALL-E, star of the 2008 animated film.

Carnegie Mellon University created the hall in 2003 to call attention to the iconic status of the machines and the university’s work advancing robotics technology. The hall of fame every year inducts new ``members,’’ which can be real robots or characters from TV, movies or other pop culture sources.

In addition to WALLE, three real robots were honoured Tuesday.

They are iRobot’s Packbot, which was used to defuse bombs and explored a nuclear power plant after the Japanese tsunami last year; Aidebaran Robotics’ NAO, an educational tool; and Big Dog, a four-legged, rough-terrain robot built by Boston Dynamics.

The Athletic Commission was formed to regulate prize fighting, boxing, wrestling, kickboxing and mixed martial art events in the City of Cranbrook.

The role of the Athletic Commission is regulated by, Section 6.1 of the City of Cranbrook Athletic Commission bylaw No. 3723, 2011. Please review this bylaw on the City of Cranbrook’s website www.cranbrook.ca for all the details of the roles and responsibilities for this Commission position.

Applicants MUST NOT be connected with any regulated sports as per the bylaw and will have to sign a declaration to this effect. The City is looking for applicants who know the sport and have the time to invest in it. Commission members will have to put in many hours to ensure the event conforms to regulations, especially in the days leading up to an event. Commission members will be expected to travel for training purposes. One position is available.

Board of Variance The Board of Variance is an independent body formed pursuant to the provisions of Section 899 of the Local Government Act. The Board considers requests for minor variances to the City of Cranbrook’s Zoning Bylaw regarding the siting, size and dimensions of buildings.

The Board considers whether compliance with zoning regulations would create undue hardship resulting from aspects of the site as opposed to those which are personal to, or generated by, the property owner. One position is available.

Economic Development Committee The Economic Development Committee provides advice and recommendations to Council on the City’s economic development strategy, Cranbrook’s competitive position, emerging economic development priorities and opportunities, and ensuring a sustainable resilient economy.

Obituary

Obituary Peter Relkoff December 1, 1937 October 22, 2012

Federiko Glavurtic Riki January 22, 1978 October 19, 2012 Born in Vancouver, Riki grew up in Port Coquitlam attending school at Terry Fox Secondary where he enjoyed spending time with his many friends riding his much prized bike and playing street hockey in the tennis courts. Riki became a commercial fisherman following in his father’s footsteps even working with his Dad and brother on the boats. In 2010 Riki moved his family to Kimberley BC for the family orientated atmosphere were he could spend quality time with his family while working and helping others. Riki could often be found volunteering at the schools or playing on the playground with the kids.

Riki will be sadly missed by family and friends. He is survived by his parents Pero and Barbara, Sister Petra (Ryan) and Brother Ante (Lana), his best accomplishment; his 3 boys Nikica, Viktor and Elijah, and his friend and mother of his children, Melanie.

Riki has many nieces and nephews he loved dearly even adopting a few as his own along the way. A Kid at heart Riki could be found playing with the kids at any social gathering. Riki was passionate about commercial fishing, his reptiles and adored his dog Sophie. Riki was a talented with electronics, drawing and building beautiful things out of wood. With his big open heart worn on his sleeve, Riki could be found nearly always with a smile on his face and a laugh that would fill a room.

He will live in our hearts forever.

Funeral will take place at the Kimberley United Church, Friday October 26, 2012 at 1:00pm.

2nd Service: Immaculate Heart of Mary Croatian Roman Catholic Parish 3105 East 1st Ave., Vancouver BC October 29, 2012 at 10:00 am Reception: Croatian Cultural Centre at 12:00pm, 3250 Commercial Dr., Vancouver, BC.

It is with great sadness that our family wishes to announce the sudden passing of Peter Relkoff.

Left to mourn are his wife of 39 years, Adele; daughter Yvette; sons David and Paul (Kelley) and grandchildren Owen and Paige his true best friends.

Peter was predeceased by his parents Polly and Mike Relkoff, siblings Annette, Liz, Mike, and Nina. He is survived by his brother Sam and numerous nieces and nephews.

Peter was an enthusiastic and courageous man with a life that had two true passions, family and volunteering.

Peter had always been regarded as the greatest husband, dad and more recently grandpa. He could spend hours on the floor playing whatever game the kids asked. He loved anything and everything we did as a family.

Peter was a well known volunteer within the community and volunteered for many things including, Fernie Ski patrol until 1980, Cranbrook Ambulance Association, and the Chamber of Commerce tourist information booth. He also was a founding member of Cranbrook Search & Rescue continuing to participate for 36 years in Highway Rescue, Searches, Training, and Fundraising.

He recently taught Rope Rescue at the COTR Fire Services Training Program. Peter’s hobbies included wood working, hiking, gardening and talking to people.

He will be greatly missed by all his family and friends.

In lieu of flowers please greet your friends with a cheery smile and tell them a story. This was one of Peter’s greatest pleasures.

“Many people will walk in and out of our life but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.” Eleanor Roosevelt.

A special thanks to those that helped Peter in the coffee shop, the amazing Firefighters, the paramedics, and the staff at the Hospital. We can’t thank you enough!

A funeral service for Peter will be held at Christ the Servant Church (1100 - 14th Ave South in Cranbrook) on Saturday, October 27, 2012 at 11:00 am.

Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service.

Michael Barry Newell 1951 - 2010 The moment that you died My heart was torn in two One side filled with heartache The other died with you I often lie awake at night When the world is fast asleep And take a walk down memory lane With tears upon my cheeks Remembering you is easy We do it everyday But missing you is heartache That never goes away We hold you tightly within our hearts And there you will always stay We know that it is only time And we will meet agian someday

Together Again Kathryn Ann Mohr Kathryn Ann Mohr, age 90, died on October 15, 2012 at Joseph Creek Care Village in Cranbrook. Kay was born in Vancouver, the youngest of Frank and Hilda Farley’s three children. She met Frank, the love of her life and husband of 67 years while attending the University of British Columbia. She lived a full and happy life; enjoying each day and cherishing each moment with her family.

Kay and Frank both had a passion for life and a vital spirit that resulted in lifelong friendships in each of the more than ten cities where they lived before moving to Cranbrook. Kay had an infectious laugh which could be heard whenever she got together with family or friends.

Whether it was a family gathering, party, dance, or her 89th birthday, she would always be one of the last to leave. She was a keen competitor and it was not unusual to hear her cries of “our team is red hot!!” at family bocce tournaments. She enjoyed skiing, golf, square dancing, clog dancing, round dancing and just plain dancing. As a mother of five, she became by necessity an exceptional cook and as her daughter-in-law said, “she could make a gourmet meal from a carrot, a left over chicken wing, and a potato”. She was also an accomplished seamstress and as old photos verify, it was not uncommon to see examples of her work on every member of the family.

She also sewed the brides and brides maids dresses for her daughters weddings as well as arranging the flowers and cooking for the reception.

Above all, she was a loving wife and mother dedicated to the happiness and well being of her family and she will be missed by all those that loved her for her adventurous spirit and her love of family.

She is survived by her children and their spouses Virginia and Howard West of Skookumchuck, Kathryn and Al Shannon of Cranbrook, and Beth and Keith Baechler of Edmonton, Glenn and Sue Mohr of Creston, and Ron and Jude Mohr of Vernon, 10 grandchildren, 11 great-grandchildren, and her brother Ken Farley. She is predeceased by her husband Frank, parents Frank and Hilda Farley, sister Helen Burt, and her grandson D’Arcy McRae. Kay’s family would especially like to thank the Care Aides and all the staff at Joseph Creek Care Village as well as a special thank you to her caring friend Karen Christie.

Their actions and kindness went far beyond their roles as care givers and helped make Kay and Frank’s final years there enjoyable, interesting, and fun.

In lieu of flowers, the family has asked that donations be made to the Alzheimer’s Society, #300 – 828 West 8th Avenue, Vancouver, BC V5Z 1E2. Condolences may be left for the family at www.markmemorial.com.

Doreen Yvonne Magee â&#x20AC;&#x153;Maâ&#x20AC;?

1938 - 2012

The family of Doreen Magee regrets to announce that she went to be with the Lord one month shy of her 75th birthday on Tuesday, October 23, 2012.

Doreen was born on November 23, 1938 to Ike and Norma Haynes in Buck Lake. She was the oldest of three girls. Doreen married the love of her life Roy Magee in 1955 and happily raised five children: Cindy, Bo, Terry, Keith and Maryann.

They moved to Cranbrook in 1977 where Doreen worked at K-Mart and then at Canada Post until her retirement.

Doreen had a variety of interests, but softball and slow pitch were her passions. She became known as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Maâ&#x20AC;? to anyone who was ever any where near a ball field. Her strong Christian belief and values shone through in the unselfish way she treated those who knew her.

'RQŇ&#x2039;W WDNH \RXU PXVFOHV IRU JUDQWHG 2YHU Family was very important to Doreen and every house &DQDGLDQV ZLWK PXVFXODU she lived in was always turned into a home filled with love. G\VWURSK\ WDNH WKHP YHU\ She loved gatherings where she was surrounded by her family and always took the extra step to try and makeVHULRXVO\ things special. She leaves behind many memories of love, kindness and gentleness. /HDUQ PRUH DW PXVFOH FD

Doreen is survived by her husband Roy; daughters Cindy, Terry (Denis), Maryann (Dick) and daughterin-law Linda; grandchildren Jesse (Rachael), Jason, Leah, Kristin, Chelsey, Dorian (Chris) and Shayley; and great grandchildren Caitlyn, Cody and Gia. She was predeceased by her sons Bo, Keith and son-in-law Paul; sisters Lorna and Ann. A memorial service for Doreen will be held at the Cranbrook Alliance Church at 2:00 pm on Saturday, October 27, 2012.

Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service.
