MADD Kimberley/Cranbrook officially launched its first ever red ribbon campaign at Cranbrook City Hall on November 1. Firefighter Brandon Cavener tied a ribbon onto one of the city’s fire trucks as Mayor Wayne Stetski and Cpl. Pat Prefontaine did the same to a city vehicle and an RCMP cruiser. See Page 4 for story.

A recent report, HungerCount 2012, says that the number of Canadians turning to food banks for help is at an all-time high, with 882,000 people (339,000 of them children) seeking some assistance from a food bank this year.

After dipping slightly in 2011, food bank use in Canada increased by 2.4 per cent this year, and is now 31 per cent higher than before the 2008-2009 recession.

Right here in Kimberley, food bank usage is up 7 per cent, says Food Bank director Heather Smith.

A slight bit of good news is that the increase this year is a little less than the year

before when 10 per cent more people accessed the food bank.

“But we still have a lot of people,” Smith said.

And a lot of them are children in Kimberley as well.

Smith says the Food Bank handed out regular hampers to 874 children and their families, and emergency hampers to 563.

As the Food Bank gears up for the Christmas season, Smith expects between 190 and 200 seasonal hampers to go out as well.

Fundraising for the Christmas hampers is underway, but the Food Bank continues to rely on donations for regular hampers as well.

“So far donations are a little slow for this time of year, but that will pick up,” Smith said. “We are still supported very well by the community.”

Spending report

Macdonald’s travel expenses third highest Two NDP, one Liberal in top three provincial travel expenses C AROLYN GR ANT bulletin@cyberlink.ca

For the first time ever, the provincial government has released MLA travel expenses.

The expenses released are for the first six months of this fiscal year, April 1 to September 30, 2012.

The biggest spender was New Democrat Robin Austin (Skeena), who billed $53,606 during the period, followed by Liberal Bill Barisoff (Penticton), the speaker of the house, whose expenses were $46,410, and Norm MacDonald, Columbia River Revelstoke, who billed $45,332.

MLA Bill Bennett, from Kootenay East just to the south, billed $26,800 in travel expenses.

Katrine Conroy, Kootenay West, billed $30,482.

Macdonald says his travel expenses are high due to a number of reasons, one of them being the location and size of the Columbia River Revelstoke riding.

“Golden is about as far away from Victoria as you can get; there is no airport near, so any trip to Victoria involves driving as well. It’s a huge riding, five and a half hours to cross by car and obviously you want to visit as many residents as possible.”

Macdonald also travels as the NDP For-

estry critic to many meetings and industry events.

“Right up until August 15, I was on the Forestry Committee which visited many communities across the province. I travelled from the end of the session all they way through.”

Macdonald explained that the actual committee travel is not charged to the MLA’s individual travel expenses, but the travel to the starting point did.

OTTAWA — The federal government says millions of records of registered long guns have all been destroyed, with the exception of court-protected data from Quebec.

A spokeswoman for Public Safety Minister Vic Toews confirmed the registry’s destruc-

tion “as of last night’’ after gun enthusiasts began spreading the word.

No formal news release appears to have been issued by a Conservative government that has made repeal and destruction of the long-gun registry one of its bedrock promises.

Nor has the government said exactly how

much taxpayer money will be saved by repealing the registry, although a study by The Canadian Press suggests it is a small fraction of the millions spent annually on gun licensing.

Last year there were almost eight million firearms logged in the registry, including more than seven million “non-restricted’’ weap-

ons.

The latest data from the RCMP shows that, as of last July, there are still more than 564,000 restricted firearms and more than 191,000 prohibited weapons in the federal gun registry.

“Our Conservative government is proud to say that as of last night, all contents of the longgun registry have been

“Make no mistake, the tax-and-spend NDP will not hesitate to bring back the long gun registry. Now that these data have been deleted, they can never be recovered — even by Thomas Mulcair,’’ wrote the government spokeswoman.

While there was no formal news release from Public Safety, groups such as the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters were out issuing public praise for the move after Toews apparently told representatives at a federalprovincial meeting Thursday in Regina.

“We are delighted that the Harper government has followed through on its promise in such a timely fashion,’’ Greg Farrant of the Ontario association said in a release.

LONDON — At a time when U.K. politicians are trying to squeeze budgets, British diplomats’ big bill for restuffing an ancient anaconda has left some observers hissing.

A freedom of information request filed by British politics blog Guido Fawkes has revealed that the Foreign Office forked out 10,000 pounds ($16,000) to restore “Albert,’’ a stuffed anaconda believed to have been donated to a British official in what is now Guyana during the 19th century.

British diplomats defended their decision to re-stuff the venerable serpent, saying “Albert’’ was an asset to Britain’s diplomatic corps and was due for “essential maintenance.’’

But the Taxpayer’s Alliance, a lobbying group, said diplomats might have been better off sending the snake to a museum.

Anti deer cull groups unite under B.C.-wide banner SALLY MACDONALD Townsman Staff

A Cranbrook group opposed to the urban deer cull has united with similar groups in other B.C. communities to stand against lethal methods of deer control.

Based in Cranbrook, the grassroots group Humane Treatment of Urban Wildlife (HTUW) formed in January 2012, but last month it united with three like-minded groups to form the British Columbia Deer Protection Coalition.

HTUW, DeerSafe Victoria, the Invermere Deer Protection Society and Animal Alliance of Canada have come together to educate the public about non-lethal methods of deer management, said Colleen Bailey, chair of HTUW. “We know this is a huge issue in many communities, so rather than trying to piecemeal each community with education and information, we decided to conglomerate our efforts so we would have more resources at our disposal,” said Bailey.

“We want to be a resource, not only for individuals and private citizens but for municipalities and elected officials to be able to access some ideas.”

Last November, Cranbrook culled 25 urban deer – 11 whitetail and 14 mule – using clover traps.

It was the first of three East Kootenay communities to carry out a cull with a license from the B.C. Ministry of

Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations.

Now, the coalition is working with wildlife biologists to collate research on deer management methods, she went on.

“What we try to do is remove the emotion out of the topic. This is such a highly volatile situation for all of our communities. We don’t want to divide the communities; we want to unite the communities.

“We have been accused of being the emotional ones and coming from an emotional perspective, but in reality we are coming from science. It’s the people going, ‘Somebody’s going to get killed,’ that are coming from an emotional base. We are saying let’s do something to prevent that through scientific research, education and understanding.”

In the coalition’s view, culling is not effective because last year’s deer cull in Cranbrook did not reduce the overall numbers of urban deer in town.

“The Coalition doesn’t see the purpose in spending tax dollars on something we know will have to be a continual effort to maintain the numbers. Culling isn’t a one-time option if they choose that method so taxpayers can count on having their tax dollars spent on this lethal method every year,” said Bailey.

Indiscriminate culling does not help with public safety, according

A common problem, but a deer cull is not the solution says HTUW. to Bailey, because it does not target problem deer.

“The deer are not euthanized. It is a completely different term and it’s misrepresenting to the public what they are doing. People think they are being put to sleep like they are pets.

We need to call it what it is and say the deer are being killed,” said Bailey.

“Given that it’s not effective in improving public safety, it doesn’t seem right.”

The coalition would rather non-lethal methods are used to reduce urban deer conflict. She mentioned “hazing” or “averse conditioning” where herding dogs are used to direct deer out of problematic areas such as schools. But she said that education and policy are the most important steps. For instance, homes on the edge of town could be prohibited from planting cedar trees. And urban residents need to have respect for deer,

Bailey said.

“We want to make sure people understand deer behaviour. We don’t want people to think, they want to be our friend, or they are out to get us. We want them to go, okay, they are a wild animal, they need to be respected as such. Keep your distance, pick up your fruit, if you must plant a cedar tree wrap it in wire.”

Cranbrook residents need to learn to live with deer, she went on.

“The public thinks that if they do a deer cull, the deer will be gone. We live in a Rocky Mountain community – there will always be deer. We need to learn to coexist with them,” said Bailey.

HTUW is pleased that the City of Cranbrook is delaying its second cull until a lawsuit between the District of Invermere and the Invermere Deer Protection Societ is resolved.

“The coalition is ex-

tremely pleased because it is going to give us time to work with them on other solutions if they are willing to work with the coalition,” said Bailey, who is also a citizen member of the Cranbrook Urban Deer Committee consulting the City on the deer cull.

Bailey was unable to provide precise membership numbers for HTUW before press time.

Getting youth connected with home town Workshops teach that helping young people fall in love with their hometown will let Cranbrook and Kimberley thrive Sally MacDonald Townsman Staff

If young people like living in our city, they will find a way to stay when they grow up, buy a home and raise their family here.

If they don’t, they will move away, leaving an ever larger generational gap in the community.

That’s the message at two special workshops being held later this month in Cranbrook and Kimberley.

Youth Engagement 101 is a joint initiative of Columbia Basin Trust, B.C. Healthy Communities, and Big Brothers Big Sisters of Cranbrook (BBBS).

“If we don’t engage with youth, it means the death of our small community,” said Dana Osiowy, executive director of BBBS. “Statistically, if we don’t have

young people in their younger years who like the community and are engaged, then they will leave. Then they won’t be buying houses and they won’t be raising their families here and that affects us economically.”

Osiowy said it is up to adults in the community to learn how to engage youth so they feel connected to their home town. The all-day workshops will be targeted at business owners, elected officials, and non-profit workers who all have pivotal roles in engaging youth.

“We are going to lead them through a training process so

they can learn why youth engagement is important, and where they are doing youth engagement that is working well,” said Osiowy. “Youth tend to be this group that people don’t understand how to connect with.”

The workshops will provide strategies and processes that rural communities have used and practical tools for action.

“So people can go back to their boss and their board of directors and explain why it’s important to engage with youth,” said Osiowy.

“Imagine if we have a whole cadre of adults and service pro-

viders and the chamber who knew how to meaningfully engage youth. It could be awesome.”

The Cranbrook Youth Engagement workshop will be held on Tuesday, November 13 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Manual Training School.

The Kimberley workshop will be held on Wednesday, November 14 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Kimberley Seniors Centre.

Local MADD branch launches red ribbon campaign Annalee Gr ant Townsman Staff

MADD Kimberley/ Cranbrook officially launched its first ever red ribbon campaign in the two communities on November 1.

Katryna Sigurdson,

community leader for the local branch, said MADD will be distributing millions of red ribbons throughout Canada this holiday season, and now they will be available in Kimberley and Cranbrook as well.

“Our mission is to stop impaired driving and it is possible,” she said. “By displaying the MADD Canada ribbon you make the commitment to drive safe and sober.”

Sigurdson said her

hope is for all Canadians to get involved simply by tying a ribbon onto their vehicle, backpack or purse and for people to get involved in their community’s safety by contacting the RCMP if they spot a po-

tential impaired driver.

Sigurdson was joined at the launch event by Mayor Wayne Stetski, RCMP Cpl. Pat Prefontaine and Councillor Gerry Warner.

Prefontaine welcomed the local MADD

City of Kimberley PUBLIC NOTICE Notice is given that at the request of the Downtown Parking Commission, the City of Kimberley intends to pass a Bylaw to impose a proportionate annual charge over a five year period for the maintenance and operation of the three surface parking lots as shown hatched on the map below. This proportionate annual charge for the maintenance and operation of the three parking lots will be applied against the benefiting properties as specified and shown in heavy outline on the map below.

branch’s work as the police officers are on the front lines of reducing drunk drivers.

“We’re happy to support this campaign,” he said. “We too share this ongoing effort to reduce the number of impaired drivers on the road.”

Like Sigurdson, he encouraged the public to come forward if they spot a potential impaired driver.

“We’ll accept the information however you can get it to us,” he said.

Stetski talked about the penalties of being caught drunk driving from the fines to the emotional penalty of injuring or killing another member of the community. He quoted a Transport Canada report that said 40,000 Canadians

have been killed in alcohol related incidents since 1982 – but the toll could be much higher had MADD Canada not stepped in 25 years ago.

Transport Canada predicts the toll could have been as high as 70,000 had MADD not started doing public awareness campaigns.

“Don’t drink and drive are four of the most important words we will ever hear,” Stetski said.

“City council is very pleased to support the work of MADD.” Prefontaine encouraged those planning on enjoying the holiday season with alcohol to find another way home via a designated driver, a taxi or other modes of transportation like walking or public transit.

MLA travel expenses released From Page 1 For instance, he said, most trips began in Vancouver, but Macdonald had to get from Golden to Vancouver.

“There is not a lot of consistency on the way expenses are listed,” he said. “For instance, when is a Minister a Minister, and when is he or she acting as an MLA? Those expenses are reported differently.”

However, Macdonald says, given the huge expense of moving a committee around the province, committee recommendations should be given more than a cursory glance.

“It means that committee work like that of the Forestry Committee has to go somewhere, which it hasn’t yet. At such a cost, recommendations must be acted upon.”

Food bank use increasing

The estimate annual cost for maintenance and operation is as follows: Estimated Amounts

2013 $26,763

2014 $27,567

2015 $28,394

2016 $29,246

2017 $30,123

The Council may proceed with establishing the service unless a petition against the service is presented on or before Thursday, December 6, 2012.

In order for a petition for a local area service to be certified as sufficient and valid, a) the petition must be signed by the owners of at least 50% of the parcels that would be subject to the local service tax, and b) the persons signing must be the owners of parcels that in total represent at least 50% of the assessed value of land and improvements that would be subject to the local service tax.

Property owners within the benefiting area may petition against these assessments by responding in writing to George Stratton, Chief Corporate Administration Officer, City of Kimberley, 340 Spokane Street, Kimberley, BC V1A 2E8 on or before Thursday, December 6, 2012.

Dated the 23rd day of October 2012.

George Stratton Chief Corporate Administration Officer

From Page 1 Many of the Food Bank’s clientele are the working poor, or seasonal workers. Smith says they often see a little easing in January as the ski hill is in full operation and many casual workers begin to see their first pay cheques.

“The ski hill is opening a little earlier this year, if there’s snow, so that will help. Once they start getting bookings, the housekeepers and waitresses go back to work. Hopefully by January things will get a little better, but then in winter, you have the utility bills much higher

and of course, groceries have gone up substantially.”

The HungerCount 2012 study also found that: 11 per cent of those receiving food each month - 93,000 people are accessing a food bank for the first time.

One in five households assisted by food banks have income from current or recent employment.

21 per cent of households helped are living on an old age or disability pension.

Half of households receiving food are families with children.

Bullying rally seeks to unite people from all walks of life Annalee Grant Townsman Staff

Two local women are refusing to sit idly by in the wake of recently publicized teen suicides.

Renee Savarie and Danielle Port are joining with communities across the province to host an anti-bullying and suicide awareness rally on November 10.

“It is important to have this rally now because we are getting sick and tired of hearing about it in the news of another death from someone being bullied,” Savarie said. “I have known two kids personally who have committed suicide from being bullied.”

Port, who grew up in Cranbrook and recently returned to the area said she sees the same problems in the city that were prevalent before she left.

“Having spent most my life in Cranbrook I know what its like growing up here and that the bullying itself is a real problem,” she said. “After being gone for 10 years and coming back I still see

the problem and I refuse to just sit back and watch it happen.”

Port and Savarie took on the rally for different reasons, but the common thread is an unwillingness to let another suicide happen in the community.

“I was bullied and even bullied others,” Port admits. “I also had drug and alcohol problems and thoughts of suicide trying to figure out how to deal with my own personal hurt and anger.”

Savarie said she’s involved to try to prevent another tragedy.

“What inspired me to do this is the fact I am a mother who has recently lost a child – not from bullying – but I know what it is like to have the death of your child from something that could have been prevented,” she said.

Port agrees, and said it’s time for bystanders to step up when they think a loved one is at risk.

“The goal of this rally is to make our voices heard that we will not tolerate this hate crime in our community and that we will not let anymore lives slip between the cracks,” she said.

Savarie said the issue of sui-

cide extends far beyond what people see on the news. According to Port, Cranbrook has the highest suicide rate per capita in the province.

“Some get made public on the news and there are numerous of people that are never mentioned in the news,” Savarie said.

Port agrees, and said it’s sad that it took a tragedy for the public to wake up.

“Right now the problem is in the spot light after Amanda Todd committed suicide. She has become the poster child for bullying and youth suicide,” she said. “It’s unfortunate that it took another child taking their own life for our schools and government to get truly serious about a very serious problem.”

The rally will also serve as a way to get the message out that there are caring people out there and resources that can help.

The rally will take place on November 10 at Rotary Park between 12 p.m. and 3 p.m. There will be a variety of guest speakers such as Cranbrook city

councillor Sharon Cross, psychic medium and motivational speaker Donna Hartt, leader of Young Life Jesse Jarvis, and Port herself.

“I want to see people of all ages and walks off life coming together to show that they to are tired of this trend and want to see a change and are ready to stand up and say ‘no more,’” Port said.

The pair hope to keep the momentum going and hold another rally next year during Suicide Awareness Week in September.

For Port, seeing her nineyear-old daughter help spread the word of the rally has been great.

“She has been extremely helpful every step of the way because she already sees the problem at such a young age and doesn’t want to see anymore people hurt,” Port said.

“She is telling everybody she meets and knows to come out and get in touch with me if they want to help out.”

Canfor Corp. has reopened its sawmill in Radium Hot Springs, B.C., spending $38.5 million to upgrade the operating and build a new planer mill.

The company said once the mill is operating at full capacity next year it will produce 240 million board feet annually and employ 144 people.

The mill was closed three and a half years ago, in May,

In November of 2011, Tembec announced that it was selling its Canal Flats and Elko sawmills, and the associated 1.1 million cubic metres of lumber and cutting rights, to Canfor for $60 million. About 455 employees were included in the transaction, with 90 of those located in the head office in Cranbrook. Tembec still owns the Skookumchuck pulp mill.

After the purchasing the Tembec assets, Canfor said it

was investing $38.5 million on the Radium facility, creating a new planer facility, the installation of a biomass energy system, and modifications to the existing sawmill.

Another $1.5 million was to be spent on the Canal Flats mill to improve drying capacity.

“These investments are critical to support the restart of our Radium division,” said Canfor President and CEO Don Kayne at the time. “The fibre in the Kootenay region is

In

August of 1964, Los Angeles became a city ignited. The DUI arrest of a young African-American sparked a full-scale riot that lasted six days.

1,600 police were joined by 14,000 National Guard members to help quell the destruction — which resulted in 4,000 arrests and 34 deaths.

Watts made headlines around the world, with the L.A. Times labelling the citizens of Watts as “criminal terrorists.” The paper also urged people not to think of the riot “as the inevitable result of economic and sociological pressures.” This was the stance taken by every single newspaper in the United States.

Except for one: The L.A. Free Press.

The Free Press — often referred to as the Freep — was the very first Underground newspaper of the ‘60s. At the exact moment when the values of mainstream America violently collided with the values of its youth, a revolution in printing technology happened. Mimeograph and offset presses became unbelievably inexpensive; one could print 5,000 copies of a small newspaper for just under $200. It was the perfect medium for the counterculture to express their hopes as well as their rage. It also acted as a unifying force, where people of the Movement could connect with each other.

The war in Vietnam, civil rights, peace and love, flower power, and smoking banana peels were the most frequent topics of the Underground papers.

It was Art Kunkin who wrote about Watts in the L.A. Free Press, which he printed himself, having started it just a few weeks before. While the national news press dissected just about everything they could

about the riot, none of them thought to ask what started the disturbance in the first place. By interviewing those who lived in Watts, he was able to report about the inherit anti-negro stance of the authorities, as well as a complete denial of the neighbourhood’s overwhelming poverty.

Being the first UnderMIKE’S ground paper, the L.A. Free BOOKNOTES Press was the model for all the ones that followed.

Mike These included the Berkley Selby Barb, East Village Other, Chicago Seed, SF Oracle, and the Rat. Although there were less than a half dozen papers in the early ‘60s, by the mid-’60s there were well over 500, not including the thousands of high-school and GI protest papers of the time. In fact, there were so many papers being produced that two separate syndicates were formed to at least try to manage and support this new outbreak of publishing. Contemporary studies have shown the underground press to have a readership of over 15 million.

And it was about this time that the underground press had an underground press of its own. Using tactics they had successfully used to bring down the Ku Klux Klan, the FBI began to publish and distribute a handful of their own counterculture papers.

Hoover himself authored a twelve-step plan, hoping to cause dissent which would divide and end the counterculture’s papers.

He needn’t have bothered.

By the time the ‘70s came around, the Underground press was all but gone. The Movement itself had been co-opted by the more political radicals (such as members of the Weather Underground), who began to advocate for violence and terrorism as a

Art Kunkin means to their ends. Success began to kill off the papers as well. The Vietnam War was winding down; so was the draft. Much of the outrageous topics the papers featured had slowly been adopted into the mainstream.

Some papers began to make a massive profit, which didn’t sit well with the Age of Aquarius people.

Art Kunkin, the person most responsible for the Underground press, left the hard way. After he had published the names and home addresses of 40 undercover narcotics agents (not realizing he had put the agent’s wives and children in danger), a lawsuit forced him to turn over ownership of the L.A. Free Press (which by then was grossing over a million dollars annually). The last thing Kunkin wrote at this time was a piece about a break-in at the Watergate hotel… but the paper’s new owners weren’t interested.

The firestorm that swept North America JANUS: Cranbrook Then & Now Jim Cameron

To

say that Sat. Aug. 1 1908 was not a good day for the town of Fernie would be an understatement. To say that the reports across North America of the events of that day were overstated would be an understatement of large proportion.

What exactly happened?

Let’s start by checking the newspapers.

On Aug. 2, a Los Angeles Herald article read: “The entire town of Fernie, B.C., has been destroyed by fire. News has been received at Cranbrook to forward all available provisions. Relief trains have been started with doctors, nurses and food on board. A neglected bush fire is the cause of the calamity. Fires are raging between Cranbrook and Crow’s Nest. A report is received from Hosmer that the Hosmer Lumber Company’s mill was on fire and that 6 families are cut off by the blaze. All men available have been called out to fight the flames.”

In terms of the facts, the newspapers of North America should have left it right there.

Reports that followed told an entirely different tale, in fact, a whole lot of different tale.

The front page headlines (and there were many) across the continent cried out in alarm: MILLIONS ARE LOST IN GIGANTIC FIRE (Honolulu Bulletin), HUNDREDS PERISH IN GREATEST CONFLAGURATION IN CANADA’S HISTORY (Los Angeles Herald), 170 KILLED AND 6,000 MADE HOMELESS (New York Evening World), THREE TOWNS SHARE FERNIE’S FATE (New York Sun), CROW’S NEST COUNTRY A SEETHING FURNACE (Arizona Republican), WESTERN CANADA IS FIRE SWEPT (Warren Sheaf, Minn.), 500 DEAD 10,000 HOMELESS $20,000,000.00 LOST IN FLAMES (San Francisco Call), and on and on.

The Spokane Spokesman Review and the Phoenix Republican called it the greatest disaster since the San Francisco fire; the Alexandria Virginia Gazette placed it second.

One town destroyed, three towns destroyed, six towns, the entire Kootenay, Kootenai, Kootena Valley. Fernie flattened. Michel flattened, Sparwood, Sharwood, Cokado,

Victoria Avenue Fernie, as it was before the great fire of August 1, 1908 – photo J.F. Spalding

The ruins of Victoria Avenue after the fire – J.F. Spalding Elko, Coal Creek, Hosmer, Posmer, Homer and Morrissey all gone. The mysterious, nonexistent towns of Olson, Wardrop and Woodtown completely wiped out.

The Salt Lake Herald claimed 70 dead, San Francisco 125, the Albuquerque Citizen 170 fatalities. Honolulu estimated 200 and the Spokane Press 700. The New York Sun hit the bell with estimates of 800 to 900. Mr. Forrester, his wife and 30 men trapped while fighting to save the Sparwood Lumber Co., make that logging camp No. 4. Make that sixty men and four women.

Men died trying to save the Great Northern Railway bridge at Michel, men died trying to save their homes, four drunkards were left to burn in the Waldorf Hotel, one woman died of fear, an old lady wrapped in a wet blanket and abandoned by her son and his family to die in her yard, a woman dead and quickly bur-

ied by neighbours in her garden as the flames approached.

Brave firemen extinguished in great numbers, fighting to the end.

From Los Angeles: “THE AIR ITSELF IS AFIRE. - Bodies recovered burned beyond recognition. In scores of instances flesh has been burned to a crisp. It is probable many human beings have been reduced to ashes.”

All railway bridges, tracks and rolling stock destroyed.

Nothing left in Fernie but six shacks and a coal mine office.

Two coal mine offices, the Trites – Fikes - Woods warehouse, 10 cottages, 6 residences, 25 houses and a railway car.

Fernie is still burning. Part of Fernie is safe. Absolutely nothing is left. The Fort Steele Brewery was the first to go.

The fire started at the P. Burns Meat Market when a flaming piece of wood flew into town. A 70-foot long building rose into the air from

the heat and landed in the middle of Main Street.

“The Hosmer dynamite magazine blown up by committee when it became certain the town was in the path of the flames,” declared the Bemidji (Minnesota) Daily Pioneer.

“One man killed as the massive explosion tore a great hole in the mountain side and shook the country for 20 miles.”

The people are trapped, the people are escaping. Thousands have escaped and are camped on a small prairie surrounded by smoke and flames, living in huts made of brush and blankets. Premier Campbell arrived at Michel on a railway handcar carrying three badly burned men. Dead bodies of several little girls found in different parts of the city.

Men screaming and women hysterical. Women screaming and men hysterical.

Tyrell Goulbourne also scored for Kelowna (9-62), which handed Kamloops its first regulation-time loss of the season.

Rockets goaltender Jordon Cooke stopped 19 shots for his second shutout of the season.

Kelowna hadn’t played since Sunday and was the fresher of the two clubs, especially in the third period when Fowlie scored both of his goals.

Cole Cheveldave made 23 stops for the Blazers (16-1-1), who were playing their fifth game in seven days.

The loss was also Kamloops’ first shutout defeat of the season. The Blazers’ last loss was 4-3 in a shootout to Victoria on Sept. 28.

Ice send prospects to Giants for player TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

The Kootenay Ice traded with the Vancouver Giants on Thursday, adding forward Austin Vetterl to the roster while dealing away prospects Kyle Krabben and Doug Morris.

Kootenay Ice general manager pulled the trigger on the deal, which adds 18-year-old Vetterl to the forward ranks, who is playing in his second year in the WHL. The Ice are considerably younger this year and the departure of team captain Drew Czerwonka and injuries to forwards Collin Shirley (upper-body) and Luke Philp (appendix removal) forced Chynoweth’s hand.

“Austin will bring much needed experience to a roster that is currently the youngest in the WHL,” Chynoweth said. “We are hoping for him to play significant minutes in all key situations.”

In 60 games last year,

Vetterl posted seven goals and 10 assists, along with 27 minutes in penalties.

It’s the second trade in as many days from the Giants, who earlier dealt David Musil, their No.1 defenceman and Edmonton Oilers prospect to the Edmonton Oil Kings for Mason Geersten and a first-round pick in the 2013 WHL Bantam Draft.

Vetterl was on the road with the Vancouver Giants, which are currently swinging through the Central Division, when head coach Don Hay informed him of the trade.

Ice assistant coach Chad Kletzel went and picked up the new acquisition in Lethbridge, and made it for practice on Thursday. He will likely get into the lineup for this weekend’s tripleheader in a home set with the Blades and Giants, along with a quick road jaunt to Medicine Hat on Sunday.

“I’m a two-way time

“From what I’ve been told, he’s a good twoway player, he can play in all three zones of the ice, he’s a very good penalty killer. He can play right side and centre and he’s good on the draws.”

Jeff Chynoweth centreman,” said Vetterl, of what he brings to the team. “I want to win my draws, I’m going to check against top guys, I can skate and am able to make a play or two every now and then.”

Chynoweth had been in contact with Scott Bonner, the general manager for the Giants, and the two talked about a few players on the Giants roster, before agreeing on Vetterl.

“Austin is a good kid,” stated Bonner, in a press

release. “We felt that he deserved an opportunity to be an everyday player and Kootenay seemed like a good fit.”

The Surrey, B.C. native had previously earned the attention of Kootenay scouts, and head scout Garnet Kazuik gave the scoop to the Ice GM before the deal was made.

“From what I’ve been told, he’s a good two-way player, he can play in all three zones of the ice, he’s a very good penalty killer,” said Chynoweth.

“He can play right side and centre and he’s good on the draws.”

The Ice surrendered Krabben, a defenceman taken 125th overall in the 2010 WHL Bantam Draft along with Morris, a listed but undrafted player out of Alberta.Both were released from the Ice after a few exhibition games in September.

“From our end, we don’t like giving up some of our top prospects,” said Chynoweth, “but at the same time, we’re very

deep in that 1995-born age group already with eight guys on our roster and with a lot of 1996 and 1997s coming up the pipe, we felt that we could afford to give up two for a player who’s played for a year in the Western Hockey League.”

ICE NOTES: Kootenay spent a good deal of Thursday’s practice working on special teams, as the club ranks 20th overall on the manadvantage, at 16.1 per cent. The Ice sit in the same spot on the penalty kill, which is ranked at 69.8 per cent. Jeff Hubic was skating in a yellow jersey, which usually indicates no body contact.

Luke Philp had his appendix removed a few days ago, and the rookie will be out of the lineup for at least a month. Hudson Elynuik and Troy Murray—two Ice prospects taken in the 2012 WHL Bantam Draft—are currently in Calgary competing in the Western Canada U16 Challenge Cup.

The College is offering free admission to elementary and high school students who show up wearing their volleyball jerseys.

The Avs have had a two weeks of rest, as the previous weekend was their bye, but both teams are itching to get back into some league action.

And after opening their season on the road, playing four games in as many days in the Lower Mainland, the teams are

eager to switch roles and face opponents that may be a little tired from the long 13-hour bus ride.

The women opened their season, splitting their four game set with two wins and two losses.

The Bearcats have the same .500 record, but are 3-3, with two more games experience.

“We’re feeling pretty good because we’ve got a lot of good chemistry on our team,” said setter Nikki Valgardson. “It’s a lot easier to play well as a team instead of as individuals. We’re feeling confident, but CBC just beat VIU 3-0 so we’re confident, but a little nervous.”

Vancouver Island University is second in the Pacwest league, with CBC right behind them, while the Avs sit in fourth.

Even though the Bearcats are going to be a tough opponent, the

Avs are ready to step up their game.

“We kind of sink down to other teams’ level sometimes, so I think it will be the peak of our season so far, because we’ll play up to their level of gameplay,” said Valgardson.

The mens side is equally jacked to get on the court in front of a home crowd.

“We’re super excited for our first home-opener of the season, I think it’s going to be a good one,” said Kellan Ward, a fifth-year libero with the volleyball team.

The Bearcats men’s team won the Canadian College Athletic Association (CCAA) national championship two years ago, but Ward believes some roster turnover allows the Avalanche to be competitive.

“There’s not many guys left on that squad,

so I think we got a real good shot at taking some games off them this weekend.”

The men took away one match in four during their opening road trip, and Ward said the team has been identifying areas of improvement since then.

Kellan Ward

“We’re just dialling in the basics and that’s really important at this stage,” Ward said.

“Whichever team doesn’t make the most mistakes tends to win most of these matches.

So we’re making the basics work for us and going from there.” omen start things off on Friday at 6 p.m. and the men follow at 8 p.m.

Saturday’s action begins at 1 p.m. with the women, while the men hit the court at 3 p.m.

Sports Galaxy end Whitecaps’ season with 2-1 playoff win Monte Ste wart Canadian Press

CARSON, Calif. — The Vancouver Whitecaps saw their Major League Soccer season end Thursday night with a 2-1 playoff loss to the Los Angeles Galaxy.

Landon Donovan’s penalty-kick goal in the 73rd minute gave the defending-champion Galaxy the come-frombehind win at the Home Depot Center.

L.A., which finished fourth in the Western Conference, will now meet the first-place San Jose Earthquakes in a two-game, total-goals series.

Mike Magee also scored for Los Angeles.

Darren Mattocks scored Vancouver’s lone goal.

The Whitecaps posted just three victories in the second half of the 34-game regular season, but looked like they

would pull off a major upset after Mattocks scored when the game had barely begun.

L.A. had earned home-field advantage in the do-or-die game by finishing fourth in the Western Conference. The Whitecaps placed fifth, getting into the playoffs as a result of a Seattle victory over Dallas.

Donovan was awarded the spot kick after

Whitecaps second-half substitute Martin Bonjour knocked him down from behind. The foul came just a minute after Bonjour entered the game for injured captain Jay DeMerit.

Magee tied the game in the 69th minute as he volleyed a cross behind Vancouver goalkeeper Brad Knighton from the centre of the 18-yard box.

L.A. pressed several

times in the first half, but the scoring attempts were either thwarted by timely Vancouver defensive plays, including a number of blocked shots, or saves by Knighton.

Mattocks opened the scoring in just the fourth minute. Midfielder Matt Watson broke down the left flank with the ball and put a slight-angle pass back to Mattocks in the middle of L.A.’s 18-

Argos head into CFL playoffs, beat Hamilton 43-40 Dan R alph Canadian Press

TORONTO—Chad Owens and the Toronto Argonauts are heading into the CFL playoffs on the craziest of rolls.

Owens broke the CFL’s single-season allpurpose yards record and Swayze Waters booted a 51-yard field goal with no time remaining as the shorthanded Argos, minus 11 regulars, rallied for a wild 43-40 win over Hamilton on Thursday night that eliminated the arch-rival Tiger-Cats from playoff contention.

Toronto (9-9) rested 10 starters _ including quarterback Ricky Ray _ and linebacker Brandon Isaac served a one-game suspension for an illegal hit last weekend against Saskatchewan’s Darian Durant. But that didn’t deter the Argo subs, who surged to a stunning 20-3 first-quarter advantage before Waters’

game-winning boot brought the season-best Rogers Centre gathering of 27,283 to its feet on Fan Appreciation Night.

“When they scored to tie it up at the end I knew we were going to have a chance so I went on the sidelines, hit a few into the net and tried to prepare myself,’’ Waters said. “You have to prepare for that situation all the time because that’s why they have you here, to make kicks and win games.

“But it doesn’t happen very often so I was excited to be able to put it through the pipes . . . it gives us momentum heading into the playoffs.’’

Toronto will host either Edmonton or Saskatchewan in the East Division semifinal Nov. 11. Hamilton’s loss clinched a playoff berth for the Eskimos, who can finish third in the West by downing Calgary on

Friday and having the B.C. Lions beat the Riders on Saturday.

Should Edmonton lose or Saskatchewan win, the Riders will take third and the Eskimos will travel to Toronto and face their former starter in Ray. The Esks were 2-0 this season against the Argos, who obtained Ray from Alberta last December.

“That was a clutch kick,’’ Argos head coach Scott Milanovich said of Waters’ winning boot. “I mean you have (Chris) Williams back there . . . with the game on the line.

“We’re playing better, there’s no doubt about that. I know offensively we’ve picked up the pace the last three weeks. I think we’ve got our confidence back. If you have a great quarterback and some confidence you’ve got a chance to win.’’

The Ticats (6-12) played all of their regu-

lars, and with good reason: they desperately needed the win to keep their slim playoff hopes alive. But Hamilton continually shot itself in the foot against the Argos’ B-team, which played veteran Jarious Jackson and rookies Trevor Harris and Zach Collaros at quarterback in the contest, with Collaros’s 13yard TD pass to Sammy Tranks putting the home team ahead 37-26 at 3:38 of the fourth.

Starter Henry Burris, 37-of-55 passing for a career-high 497 yards and four TDs, pulled Hamilton to within 40-33 with 2:47 remaining with a three-yard TD strike to Avon Cobourne. After two incompletions that

took just 26 seconds by Collaros, the Ticats got the ball at the Toronto 39-yard following a 35yard punt return by Williams with 2:15 to play.

Burris and Williams then hooked up on fiveyard touchdown pass _ giving him a career-high 43 this season _ that tied the score 40-40 with 1:10 remaining. Burris finished the season with 5,367 yards passing _ another career high _ while Williams had four catches for 104 yards and two TDs, boosting his clubrecord total to 18.

But Collaros took over at the Toronto 42 with a minute remaining and marched the Argos to the Hamilton 44 to set up Waters’ winning boot.

NEW YORK _ The NFL and the players’ union are combining to donate $1 million to the American Red Cross to help in the recovery efforts in the Northeast after Hurricane Sandy.

Also, the league and its network broadcasters will run TV pregame and in-game messages to promote donations during this weekend’s games, beginning with Thursday night’s game on NFL Network between Kansas City and San Diego.

Commissioner Roger Goodell and NFLPA Executive Director DeMaurice

Smith announced the donations Thursday.

“This contribution on behalf of all 32 clubs and players throughout the league will help the American Red Cross assist people in need in the affected areas,’’ Goodell said.

“We salute the dedication of those who have been working so hard on the rescue, relief and recovery effort.’’

The NBA and its players’ union followed suit with a similar donation to the Red Cross and other organizations, including The Salvation Army, New York Cares and Jersey Cares, that have mobilized to assist the peo-

ple and communities affected by Hurricane Sandy. And the NBA’s broadcast partners will air messages to encourage fans to support relief efforts by the Red Cross.

“Many homes and lives were devastated

by Hurricane Sandy and our thoughts, abiding concerns and hopes are with all those affected,’’ said NBA Commissioner David Stern.

“The immeasurable damage and heartbreaking impact of this latest natural disaster continues to shock all of us,’’ added NBPA Executive Director Billy Hunter.

NEWS Europe’s oldest town unearthed near salt deposits V e s e l i n To s h kov Associated Press

SOFIA, Bulgaria _ A prehistoric town unearthed in eastern Bulgaria is the oldest urban settlement found to date in Europe, a Bulgarian archaeologist said Thursday.

Vasil Nikolov, a professor from Bulgaria’s National Institute of Archaeology, said the stone walls excavated by his team near the town of Provadia are estimated to date between 4,700 and 4,200 B.C. He said the walls, which are 3 metres (10 feet) high and 2 metres (6 1/2 feet) thick, are believed to be the earliest and most massive fortifications from Europe’s prehistory. ``We started excavation work in 2005, but only after this archaeological season did we gather enough evidence to back up this claim,’’

Nikolov told The Associated Press.

The team has so far unearthed remains of a settlement of two-story houses with a diameter of about 100 metres (328 feet) encircled by a fortified wall .

Excavations have also uncovered a series of pits used for rituals as well as parts of a gate. Carbon analysis has dated them to the Chalcolithic age to between 4,700 and 4,200 B.C., he said _ more than a millennium before the start of the ancient Greek civilization. ``New samples of the excavations have been sent to the University of Cologne, Germany, for further evaluation,’’ Nikolov said.

Bulgaria, a Balkan country of 7.3 million, hosts numerous Neolithic, Chalcolithic and Bronze Age settle-

The prehistoric town at Provadia features two-storey houses and a defensive wall. ment mounds as well as significant remains of Hellenistic, Roman and Byzantine urban centres.

Nikolov said the settle-

ment near Provadia was home to some 350 people who likely produced salt from the nearby rock-salt deposits.

NDP deny raining on Liberal parade C anadian Press

VICTORIA – B.C. Opposition New Democrat Leader Adrian Dix denies his party is upstaging the Liberal government in connection to a tourism-related announcement.

Dix promised today that if an NDP government were elected next May it would re-establish Tourism BC, the industry-led, government-funded

tourism marketing body the Liberal government dumped six months before the 2010 Winter Olympics.

The Liberals say their own news conference announcing the return of Tourism BC was set for Monday, something Jobs, Tourism and Innovation Minister Pat Bell told the Vancouver Board of Trade in August.

Dix says the New Democrats

have been calling for a return to an industry-led Tourism BC model, with its formula-based provincial funding since the provincial marketing plan was eliminated.

He says when the government folded Tourism BC into tourism ministry budgets the industry became tied to the ups and downs of provincial revenues.

``They boiled brine from salt springs in kilns, baked it into bricks, which were then exchanged for other commodities with neighbouring

tribes,’’ Nikolov said, citing as possible evidence the gold and copper jewelry and artifacts that have been unearthed in the region.

The most valuable is a collection of 3,000 gold pieces unearthed 40 years ago near the Black Sea city of Varna. It is believed to be the oldest gold treasure in the world. ``For millenniums, salt was one of the most valued commodities, salt was the money,’’ Nikolov said adding that this explained the massive stone walls meant to keep the salt safe.

The two-story houses, as well as the copper needles and pottery found in graves at the site, suggest a community of wealthy people whose likely work was the once-lucrative production of salt.

Argentina drops voting age to 16 ahead of election Almudena C al atr ava Associated Press

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina _ President Cristina Fernandez on Thursday celebrated a new law that lowers the voting age to 16, a move that could have a big influence in next year’s congressional elections.

The law that won final approval Wednesday evening expands ``the rights of our young people so that they can use one of the most important weapons, the showing their opinions at the voting booths,’’ Fernandez said.

The change adds 1.4 million young voters, expanding the elector-

ate by close to 5 per cent.

The government has tried hard to court these voters. The ruling party and its allies control congress, but they lack the two-thirds majority in both houses needed to change the country’s constitution.

Opponents fear Fernandez could then eliminate term limits and rule indefinitely.

Fernandez was reelected in October 2011 with more than 54 per cent of the vote. If her opponents can manage to hold onto enough seats in the House and Senate next year, they can prevent any constitutional

changes until after her second term is over in 2015.

Despite rampant speculation about a ``re-re-election,’’ Fernandez has kept both supporters and opponents in line by declining to define her plans.

Ruling party Deputy Diana Conti, who presides over the lower chamber’s constitutional commission, ridiculed term limits as ``stupid.’’ ``If the main thing is to alternate leaders and alternating means putting in someone inept, democracy and even civil society suffers,’’ she told Radio Continental on Wednesday.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You could be more gruff than you realize. You say what you think and do what you say. Be careful, as some people are not used to your forthright style. Anger or hostility could come out with the wrong person. Ouch! Tonight: A force to be dealt with.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) When you’re frustrated, no other sign rivals your ability to become overindulgent. You could be attacking your checkbook, or a partner might be acting as if money grows on trees. You’ll want to assume control for now, so be sure to utilize your self-discipline.

Tonight: TGIF. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You come off much stronger and more rigid than you might realize, especially right now. You could hear some sharp words, which might be directed at you but really have nothing to do with you.

Let those comments slide right off you. Tonight: All smiles, beaming into the night.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You might want to funnel your energy -- both negative and positive -- into a project. You could be overwhelmed by everything that comes up. It would be better to incorporate your vigor into a pending project than to let it get out of control. Tonight: Choose a stressbuster.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Zero in on what is happening within your immediate circle. A child or loved one could act up out of the blue. Tempers will flare, but as long as no one holds a grudge, a resolution is possible. You might be catering to someone more than you wish you were. Tonight: You are the party!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Pressure builds among those around you. Delivering what you promised remains critical. You have the same expectation of others. Do not allow anyone to rain on your parade. Use care with a volatile roommate or family member.

Tonight: A must appearance.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) If you find yourself at an impasse, detach ... at least until you can get

For Better or Worse

a variety of perspectives on the situation. You could be careless around machinery. Stay current with electrical and mechanical equipment. Tonight: Go with an unusual invitation.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Realize that you are doing an excellent job of juggling various interests. You understand where a partner is coming from, and you get his or her logic. You could be frustrated with yourself and your lack of self-discipline. Go for a walk rather than blow your top. Tonight: Go along with a loved one’s suggestion.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Do you really think you can sit on your feelings and put up a front?

Somehow your body language and facial expressions will tell on you. You are better off gently expressing your anger and frustration with your words so that others can hear what you have to say. Tonight: Remain responsive to a key person in your life.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Focus on your ability to get a job done. A friend or loved one might want to pitch in at the last min-

ute; however, you could be more rigid than you think, and someone else’s style and organization might irritate you. Tonight: Out with a cohort.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Remain playful and open with others. You could become frustrated with a friend, or vice versa.

Try not to get assertive, fussy and/ or critical. Someone lets you know just how much he or she is aggravated. Avoid a reaction, if possible.

Tonight: Follow the fun, and make sure there is music.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Be sensitive to a family member who might be distressed by the amount of time you spend with an older friend or a respected associate. The smart thing is to not get into it with this person -- neither of you needs a fight right now.

Tonight: Stay close to home.

Annie’s Mailbox

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I live in Europe. I visit my parents twice a year with my kids, and my parents visit us annually. I recently asked that no relatives visit during my son’s spring break so he can concentrate on his SATs and AP exams.

My parents, however, insist they would not be a bother and against my wishes are planning to come during spring break and live at our house for two weeks. They always expect us to entertain them and take them out of town on the weekends.

What can I say to make them change their minds? -- 50 Years Old but Still Feeling 5 Dear Old Enough: Unless there is a good reason why your folks picked this time to visit, we strongly urge you to put your backbone in place. Tell your parents as sweetly as you can manage that if they insist on coming at precisely the time you asked them not to, you are so sorry, but you won’t be able to put them up in your home because your son cannot have any distractions. You also won’t be taking weekend trips for the same reason. Tell them how awful it is that you can’t provide the type of company they were hoping for and that your son won’t be able to enjoy their visit. Give them the name of a local bed-and-breakfast and suggestions for day trips and places of interest. Do it nicely but firmly, and don’t back down.

They will be upset, but they’ll get the message.

Dear Annie: Three years ago, I moved back to my hometown. My older brother, “Jerome,” lives here. He is an outspoken and grumpy old man. His wife and I are friends and talk on the phone often.

Here’s the rub: I haven’t been invited for a holiday or birthday celebration since I moved here. We exchange gifts, but they have cake or dinner after I leave. Yet my sister-in-law’s family is always invited.

I would often take baked treats over, but I stopped. Should I stop exchanging gifts, too? My sister-in-law knows this is hurtful, but she says only that Jerome doesn’t like a lot of people around.

Is he that uncaring? I rarely talk to him now, and I haven’t been to his house in months. He has dropped over here a few times to bring produce or canned pickles.

I wish I could just get over it. -- Baffled Dear Baffled: We think the fact that Jerome drops by with produce and canned pickles indicates that he’d like a closer relationship, but doesn’t know how to achieve it. Have you invited him to your home for a birthday or Christmas party?

That street runs both ways. You also could tell him directly that you’d love to stay for cake and ice cream at the next birthday party and see how he reacts. It can’t hurt.

Dear Annie: In response to “Another Lonely Wife” (and many other unhappy wives), I share your pain from a husband’s point of view.

After countless romantic dinners, fun weekend getaways and vacations, tickets to her favorite events, a 25th wedding anniversary cruise and doing my fair share of household chores, the “return” on my efforts is nearly zero. It’s not that I expect it for every gesture I make, but being constantly rejected sexually has taken its toll on my happiness. I would never reject any advances from my wife -- not that she has made many in 10 years. She says she loves me, but she should add, “But I don’t want to have sex with you ever again.” It’s like I have a roommate, not a soul mate.

It reminds me of the story of the couple who put a dollar in a jar every time they made love. After 10 years, they paid for a trip to Hawaii. In my case, I wouldn’t be able to pay for the gas to get to the airport.

Remembering: The courage to make peace

of their own.

These were not heroic people. They were small–time farmers, struggling to make a living. They had no power to match the mighty Nazi war machine. The struggle in Le Chambon happened in the privacy of peoples’ homes.

Decisions which became turning points in that struggle were made in kitchens with husbands and wives and children quietly sitting across the table from each other, trying to figure out what to do.

The Chambonais hid Jews in their homes, sometimes for as long as four years. They provided forged ID and ration cards for the refugees, and helped them over the border to safety in Switzerland.

They were not fighting to liberate their

Janus: The Fernie Firestorm Continued from page 7 How did it start, this firestorm of epic proportions racing across the mountains and valleys of western Canada? A carelessly discarded match, rampaging forest fires or worse still — conspiracy theorists take note — set deliberately by the Black Hand, that subversive Italian crime organization bent on extortion and, in Fernie, bent on releasing five of their members from the local jail by starting fires in three different locations in order to create a diversion allowing them to spring their comrades.

Fernie requests Cranbrook to send as many guns and leg irons as possible. A special train carrying weapons

is on its way. So sayeth San Francisco, New York and Albuquerque. And that was just the tip of the flaming iceberg.

The reporting of the Fernie Fire of 1908 is a study. That the stories could be spread so quickly using nothing more than word of mouth and telegraph wires should not really be surprising. Newspapers and telegrams were the main source of information and the systems in place were both fast and effective. That such wildly diverse tales could be spread should not be surprising either. Where there are people there are stories, lots of stories. The facts may be a different story altogether.

Next Week: The Great Fernie Fire.

No charges in Bantam on-ice injury C anadian Press

NANAIMO, B.C. _ The RCMP say no charges will be laid against a 14-yearold hockey player after another player was injured during a Bantam game in Nanaimo, B.C., in September.

The RCMP investigated after the injured player’s father complained his son suffered a ruptured spleen during a game between a Nanaimo team and a visiting team from Saanich on Sept. 23.

Police say they looked into allegations involving a body check on the in-

jured Saanich player, and a subsequent hit in which the Nanaimo player’s stick was apparently used in a spearing fashion.

However, police say after speaking to witnesses to watching a video of the game, investigators have determined there was no criminal intent in either of the checks.

Const. Gary O’Brien says the players, parents and Nanaimo minor hockey officials have been told about the results of the investigation.

told by Philip Hallie in a wonderful book called Lest Innocent Blood be Shed: The Story of the Village of Le Chambon and How Goodness Happened There. It is the compelling story of ordinary people who became extraordinary, not by attempting something spectacular, but by being faithful in their ordinary day–to–day lives.

It is a story of faith, courage and heroism.

Every November 11, when I hear the words “Lest we forget”, I remember the Chambonais and their pastor, André Trocmé. I remember because of what these people did.

Remembering gives me courage and a reason to act.

In the midst of an increasingly warlike world, I pray I too might have the courage to be a peacemaker. The witness of André Trocmé and the Chambonais encourages and challenges me to embody

the gospel of peace and compassion. “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.”

country or their village.

On the contrary, their resistance put their little village in grave danger of massacre, especially in the last two years of the war when the Germans were becoming desperate. Under the guidance of their spiritual leader, they were trying to act in accord with their consciences in the middle of a very bloody, hate–filled war.

They acted on their conviction that their duty was to help their neighbours in need.

They followed their consciences and decided that they could not hate or kill any human being. They refused to do so. Human life was too precious. It could not be taken for any reason. They chose to save as many lives as they could, even if it meant endangering their own lives.

They did all this for only one reason. Their consciences were formed by the gospel.

They were Christian people. They belonged to Jesus Christ. Their primary loyalty was to God. They lived by different rules than the society around them.

The story of Le Chambon is eloquently

ers had an obligation to stand against this terrible wrong.

And so, in his preaching, in Bible studies, in talking with his people, Pastor Trocmé convinced his small congregation to begin hiding these desperate refugees. The villagers were ordinary people, with ordinary concerns: raising their children, making ends meet, surviving this terrible war.

Like many, they were afraid of what might happen to them if the Germans discovered what they were doing.

In Memoriam CHRIS A MAKELKI (Oct 13, 1933 - Oct 28, 2011) Chris passed away 1 year ago in White Rock BC, after battling Dementia, surrounded by his daughter Diane (& Brian), son Brent (& Donna), plus Grandaughters; Kayli, Elyse, Cheyanne and Breena. Chris was predeceased by his wife Phyllis in 2004. Chris moved his family to Cranbrook in 1972 from Nelson (formerly Saskatoon SK) and worked as a heavy duty mechanic. He always joked about â&#x20AC;&#x153;just pulling wrenchesâ&#x20AC;? but he was highly skilled and admired for his abilities. Chris had many great friends and co-workers in Cranbrook and valued meeting the boys for coffee after retirement. Chris and Phyllis moved to Chilliwack in 1996 and made some new friends but the ones in Cranbrook were very dear to their hearts. Both Chris and Phyillis were layed to rest together at the Sunneyside Cemetery in South Surrey BC close to family.

Gordon Benton June 4, 1952 to October 21, 2012 It is with great sadness we announce the sudden passing of Gordon Benton on October 21, 2012 in Mackenzie, BC

Gordon was born on June 4, 1952 in Kimberley, BC. He married his life-long partner, wife Jaquline (Jackie) in 1976. Gordon worked for Mackenzie Redi Mix and Sonic Concrete in the construction industry for many years.

Gordon loved to ski, garden, golf and do work projects at home. He was always willing to lend a hand to those in need and would do so with a big smile. He had an awesome sense of humour and full boisterous laugh.

Jobs growth the backbone of strong economy Sense of urgency drives $500 million BC Jobs Plan – and it starts with training

This is the first of a four-part series exploring British Columbia’s innovative and active BC Jobs Plan, geared to drive job growth across the province

T

By Frank O’Brien

here are 2,503,400 people in B.C.’s labour force and 2,328,300 were working as of the end of September – with B.C. generating 29,500 new jobs in the past year, according to BC Stats.

Impressive numbers, but not enough for the B.C. government, which, as part of its comprehensive Canada Starts Here: BC Jobs Plan, launched a $75 million skills training program in September to link graduates to jobs within the $80 billion of major projects underway across the province.

“A skilled workforce is the foundation of a strong and resilient economy,” said Premier Christy Clark.

Skills training is one of three pillars that anchor the $500 million BC Jobs Plan. It also includes expanding global markets for B.C. products and services and working closely on job creation with employers and communities.

There is a sense of urgency: projects ranging from shipbuilding to natural gas, mining to manufactur-

ing, and transportation to commercial/residential development, all need workers now. Since 2006, employment in the mining, oil and gas extraction sectors has surged 24.7% and shows no sign of slowing: $48 billion will be invested in liquefied natural gas (LNG) alone between 2013 and 2022.

The estimated investment for all major projects currently under construction has increased nearly seven fold since 2011 – and skills training is vital to keep these projects on track, said Kevin Evans, CEO of B.C.’s Industry Training Authority (ITA).

“It is really the first time in British Columbia’s history that our economic growth could be stifled by not a shortage of financial capital, but a shortage of human capital.”

Evans added that the skills training program, “takes B.C. industry training to the level required to take advantage of the economic opportunities before us.”

Graduates get jobs For Cathy Minty, a Vancouver single mother of five, skills training means a chance at a fresh new life.

Minty recently obtained apprentice training in plumbing through ITA’s Women in Trades Training. She is now employed as a plumber with

Black & McDonald in Vancouver.

“Becoming a plumber has changed my life,” said Minty. “I love coming home and telling my kids what I did at work that day – they are so proud of me.”

Many others will share pride in a well-paying job. There are now more than 32,000 apprentices in training, the most since ITA was created in 2004. An unprecedented 8,760 certificates of qualifications – known as “tickets” – were earned in the 2011-2012 year, up 20% from a year earlier. These tickets will allow graduates to ride a demand for 104,600 trades positions over the next 10 years, Evans said.

The BC Jobs Plan is all about clearing the path for jobs. A central goal is to increase by 50% the number of graduates going straight from high school to a trades or technical program, according to the Ministry of Jobs, Tourism and Skills Training.

The BC Jobs Plan also dovetails with industry job initiatives and the Provincial Nominee Program to bring in foreign workers with specific skills.

All this help is welcomed by the resources industry, said Gavin C. Dirom, president and CEO of the Association for Mineral Exploration BC, who notes that his members need 4,000 “highly skilled” workers.

By the numbers • $500 million: Budget for BC Jobs Plan • $75 million: New money for B.C. skills training • 32,000: number of apprentices in B.C. • 50,000: jobs created since BC Jobs began • 6.8%: B.C. unemployment rate • $819 million: B.C. commercial construction permits in third quarter 2012 (biggest year-over-year increase in Canada) • 1 million: Projected new jobs in B.C. by 2020 • $80 billion: Major projects underway in B.C. • $1 trillion: major projects in B.C. over next 30 years “Having a plan that focuses on technical programs will help meet this demand,” he added.

The BC Jobs Plan is also conducting a series of job fairs in 24 B.C. communities through to this November to link workers directly with employers. The next fairs – from October 23 to October 30 – will be held in Salmon Arm, Kamloops, Williams Lake and Prince George. Others are planned in the Lower Mainland, Vancouver Island, Okanagan and Kootenay communities through to November 24.

Job fairs Typical of the response to the job fairs is the October 30 event at Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops, where 29 employers are represented. They range from large

corporations such as BC Hydro and Teck Corp. to local retailers and high-tech companies.

The BC Jobs Start Here Mobile Exhibit is live at each job fair. The hands-on interactive tool connects workers with career information, employment services, job banks and local job events through the BC Jobs Plan and WorkBC websites.

For information on a job fair in your community, visit www.bcjobsplan.ca/job-fairs.

The BC Jobs Plan is a strong response to a specific need, according to Pat Bell, Minister of Jobs, Tourism and Skills Training and Minister Responsible for Labour.

“We are taking action to ensure that British Columbians have the skills and supports they need to get the jobs that come with economic growth.”
