bit of time, especially if your stack of papers looks like the leaning tower of Pisa. But once you decide on a filing system it will be child’s play to keep it in order. Start by sorting your documents into different categories: personal papers (passport, diplomas, birth certificate); finances (pay stubs, income tax); insurance; fixed monthly expenses (electricity, telephone, cable); and other expenses (furniture, car, health). Keep unpaid bills to one side. Choose a different coloured folder for each category and file your documents, creating sub-categories as you proceed. For example, fixed monthly expenses can be filed separately, with a folder each for electricity, telephone, and gas. Clearly label each file. File all your warranties and instruction manuals together as well, unless you no longer have the appliances. You will want to file your new documents as you receive them. You should also think about shredding any papers that are no longer relevant, an increasingly important step in preventing identity theft.

Fernie services get Federal funding The West Fernie Servicing Project will benefit from $5.4 million in funding from the Government of Canada through the Gas Tax Fund. This investment will support the first phase of the community’s efforts to upgrade its water and sewer infrastructure. “Infrastructure investments are an important driver of economic growth and job creation, and I am pleased that this project will help protect the environment and the health of East Kootenay residents,” said David Wilks, Member of Parliament for Kootenay—Columbia. This project involves upgrading a deteriorating water distribution system, constructing a community sewer system, and providing storm sewer service in low lying areas. The longterm goal of the project is to develop sufficient infrastructure for West Fernie to become part of the City of Fernie. This Phase 1 funding will begin that work. “We would like to thank the federal and provincial governments for investing in this project. Bringing sewer and improved water service to this community is so important and would not be possible without this generous support,” said Regional District of East Kootenay (RDEK) Board Chair Rob Gay. An additional $400,000 in funding for this project will be provided through the community and the Electoral Area A’s portion of the Elk Valley Mine Tax Sharing Agreement. “This is huge for West Fernie. We have been working with the community for several years to bring this forward and it would not have been possible without all levels of government working together including Kootenay—Columbia see Funding page 3

“Remembering Betty” a $5,000 gift for ICU

Their wishes were simple, to honour Betty and to pick a piece of equipment that was associated with the importance of breathing. For Peter Borsato, a Respiratory Therapist at the East Kootenay Regional Hospital this was very welcomed news. The EKRH ICU recently received three new ventilators and one carbon dioxide monitor compliments of the Cranbrook Health Care Auxiliary. The challenge for the Respiratory Department was only having one CO2 moni-

It was a very touching and heartfelt moment recently when Al Bakken and his daughter Marilyn Dezall dropped in to East Kootenay Foundation for Health to make a very special Starlite Campaign gift. In a lovable gesture to remember their wife and mother, Betty Steele Bakken, who passed away on November 2, 2011 the two decided to be one of the 17 stars of the campaign by making a gift of $5,000 in Betty’s name.

tor available for all three ventilators on the unit. Thanks to the beautiful gift from the Bakken family, a second carbon dioxide monitor is on its way to compliment the needs of the ICU unit. The Bakken family in remembering Betty embraces the greatness when a gift is given to help others. The Starlite Campaign for Excellence in Health Care is grateful to receive such a loving gift.

Like a bad reality show about a dysfunctional family, B.C. School Wars has lurched to life again for the 2013 election. Coming soon to billboards and buses across the province: staged pictures of sad-faced kids crammed into dirty classrooms by a heartless government. It doesn’t even matter which government. This ritual combat went on through Social Credit and NDP governments too. Premier Christy Clark opened the new season with her promised pitch to restructure bargaining. It suggested splitting up bargaining into traditional wage and beneﬁt talks, and a separate table and fund for classroom size and support. Cast in her familiar role of the sullen, rebellious teenager, BCTF president Susan Lambert staged a news conference to distort and mock the government’s offer. A 10-year deal if we give up bargaining wages and classroom conditions? “Ludicrous.” What’s ludicrous is her characterization of a formula to link teacher pay to nurses, post-secondary faculty and other government workers. Nurses are renowned for getting raises when no one else does, so this should be an opportunity for these powerful unions to co-ordinate. But the BCTF can’t get along with other unions any more than

it can negotiate with any discernible competence. Lambert falsely claimed there was no consultation on the proposal. This reminded me how she low-balled the costs of her union’s demands by hundreds of millions during what passed for negotiations in last year’s strike season. Behind the scenes, the BCTF executive and the school district bargaining agent had just settled on a mutual costing model. What this means is the school districts, which have to make payroll and balance budgets, have convinced the BCTF to stop misrepresenting costs. I’ll believe that when I see it. Before Education Minister Don McRae had even spoken, BCTF vice-president Glen Hansman was growling his reply on Twitter: See you in court. That message presumably also goes for premierin-waiting Adrian Dix, unless he replaces the hated B.C. Liberals in May, then quickly kneels before the BCTF and extends the key to the provincial treasury. Two generations of British Columbians have been bullied by this bad drama, since Bill Vander Zalm decided an industrial union bargaining structure was just the ticket for public schools. Students are taught by example, if not by blatant propaganda in classrooms, that all problems are solved by demanding more

money from the government. After this conditioning, older students are sometimes pressed into service as union pickets. There’s your Social Justice class, kids. Sorry about those sports teams and ﬁeld trips, but we need those as bargaining chips to get more paid leave time. To state the obvious, Clark and McRae staged this as a preelection event to frame the issue. They knew their effort would be greeted as a declaration of war. The main reason the BCTF agreed to a contract extension with a wage freeze last year? It wasn’t the blindingly obvious fact that every other public sector union had already taken two zeroes. It was strictly tactics. The delay sets up the latest rematch of these old warriors in the spring election. The plan is to get the dreaded B.C. Liberals out and then start working over the weaker, more uniondependent NDP. That’s who caved in earlier and gave the BCTF broad control over stafﬁng levels, the proverbial key to the treasury. Along with basic math and economics, a point the BCTF seems unable to grasp is that its strategy is self-defeating. Those sad kids are making more and more parents seek a better deal.

How to be a painting professional

Changing a room’s décor can be as simple as giving the walls a new coat of paint. At least it can be, if you know all the tricks that will result in a professional looking finish. First of all, it is crucial to prepare the room thoroughly. This step, which often takes more time than applying the paint, is essential in order to achieve an impeccable final result. Start by removing any large pieces of furniture and any objects that could be damaged by paint splashes. Plates around light switches and electrical outlets should also be removed, as well as any light shades. Next, protect the floorcovering with old sheets or a tarp. Ensure

that any furniture that cannot be taken out of the room is well protected. Run a strip of masking tape or paint tape along all edges where there is a risk of getting paint, such as moldings, windows, and door frames. All surfaces have to be prepared before starting to paint. Fill any holes and modify any imperfections with wall putty and sand the walls smooth. Clean the surfaces to be painted and leave them to dry so that the primer and paint will adhere properly. Before getting started on the actual painting, it’s a good idea to get some advice from a home painting specialist. He or she will be able to tell you if you

Tips to remember before you leave

During your trip

Your day of departure is approaching fast, and, as a seasoned traveller, you remember that there are a few golden rules that will help you have a safe and pleasant trip. The last thing you want is to be the centre of attention in a foreign country. It is not only uncomfortable to stand out, it could also cause you some difficulties in getting good service or attract the attention of the local authori-

This is it! You’ve arrived at your destination and your vacation is finally starting. To make this trip as enjoyable and meaningful as possible, the seasoned traveller knows that it is important to take the time to absorb some of the local culture. It will help you adapt better if you have already researched local customs and laws through a travel agency, travel guides, or at offi-

Submitted

ties. Depending on the country you’re visiting, it is important to wear socially or culturally appropriate clothing and avoid making remarks that are insulting to the people of the country you’re visiting. In some places, even drinking alcohol in public could get you into trouble with police. Be sure to find out about the laws and customs of the country you’re planning on travelling to. An expert traveller also takes the time to learn a

few words and phrases of the local language. Not only does it charm the people of the place, this small effort on your part greatly facilitates the smooth running of your visit. It is also important to plan all administrative details well in advance. Ensure that your passport is valid until well after you have returned to this country and that you have all necessary visas. Your vaccinations, prescriptions, and medical certificates also

need to be up-to-date. Better to be safe than sorry! If you’re travelling with children, have all the necessary documents proving that you have the right to take them out of the country: passport, letter of consent if the child is travelling with only one parent, and legal documents, such as a custody court order or a death certificate if one of the parents is deceased.

ful attitude. You don’t make a lot of noise in the wee hours, you show respect for the staff by offering a tip when the service surpasses your expectations, and you don’t make a terrible mess of your room. An expert traveller knows that tourists are especially at risk of having money or official documents stolen. So, without making a big deal of it, you choose a few little hiding places in your luggage: a soap box, a packet of bandages, or a container with a double bottom are just a few places to hide currency and credit cards. You don’t take out a huge wad of banknotes when paying for something or flash your valuables needlessly. Above all, you know that being firm but courteous is the most important thing for a traveller. Your attitude will enable you to get out of all sorts of awkward situations.
