Funding required for child-friendly support network initiative

BY SHERI REGNIER Times Staff

Parents, take note.

A new childcare initiative, titled the Family Action Network (FAN), is underway.

The focus of FAN is to set up a directory to make available and integrate all preschool-based resources available in the

Lower Columbia.

“It is just a spider web of information out there right now,” said Mayor of Fruitvale, Patricia Cecchini.

“Our vision is to make available seamless integrated support services, so that parents will have one source to access all services.”

Cecchini said that the society is busy

finalizing its strategic plan and list of projects, but high in priority, is the incentive to create a FAN website.

Ideally, the website would offer an action-oriented support network for families with infants and young children and serve as a base to help unify resources available to Lower Columbia families.

In addition, a high in priority is to

assign a regional coordinator to the project, said Cecchini.

The coordinator would collaborate with various resources to promote unity of services between communities.

“For example, we have children who need occupational therapy, and speech therapy,” she said.

The basement of the house at 680 Hendry St. caught fire Saturday night and had been “burning for some time” before the fire department arrived on the scene and extinguished it.

Neighbourhood watch

West Trail home saved by alert action of neighbour from fire “burning for quite some time”

BY SHERI REGNIER Times Staff

The quick actions of a West Trail resident led firefighters to a smoldering house fire on Saturday night at 680 Hendry Street.

Just past 10:30 p.m., neighbour Dale Grewcock was checking the lock on his basement door, when he detected the smell of smoke.

After opening the door and looking up at the streetlight, he could see smoke drifting by.

Grewcock jogged to the end of the street where he noticed smoke coming out of a house.

“Then there was a bang and a flash of fire,” he said.

“Followed by another bang and the sound of breaking glass.”

Grewcock ran back home, dialed 911, and then immediately alerted his neighbours.

“We stood outside and waited,” he said.

“The fire department showed up and took care of the rest.”

Crews responded to a report of an explosion in a house on McAnally Street, said fire chief Terry Martin.

Martin said that there were no visible flames when the firefighters arrived, but the neighbour flagged them down and pointed them to the house, which is actually on Hendry Street.

Trail is receiving two new health care programs to help seniors and those suffering from mental health issues and substance abuse.

Mental health and substance abuse programs will see an injection of cash from the Interior Health Authority to the tune of $2.7 million.

It will be directed across nine communities to expand mental health service. In Trail and Nelson, five full-time equivalent (FTE) new staffing positions will be added including social workers, a nurse and life skills workers.

By ensuring consistent access to a doctor’s care and other support services the program could lower emergency department use at Kootenay Boundary Regional Hospital by those suffering from mental illness.

“A large proportion of this population doesn’t have a family doctor,” said Cliff Cross, program director of Mental Health and Substance Use with the IHA. “At the same time, many have pressing health care issues that can exacerbate their illness and seriously impact quality of life.”

The initiative also includes Home First in Trail, a program to help keep seniors destined for residential care, or at risk of hospitalization, at home.

Using a support team of dedicated health-care workers and a person’s physician, an individualized service and care plan would be created to make sure seniors’ needs are met.

The Home First program brings together health professionals such as occupational therapists, physiotherapists, nurses, rehabilitation assistants, and community health workers to provide service for people with complex care needs.

FAN sets goal to work IHA programs address challenges on regional scale program director, Kathy “If we can help them avoid FROM PAGE 1 FROM PAGE 1 “Now, they have to drive to Castlegar or farther to access the services.”

She explained that FAN has a goal to work collaboratively and share services between townships rather than communities and organizations operating on their own.

Cecchini said that the first event sponsored by FAN was the ‘Ages and Stages’ day, held on Feb. 12.

“We were able to bring many resources together under one roof (Kiro Wellness Centre), and set up different stations,” she explained.

Forty children, up to five-years old, were screened, and parents had the opportunity to meet with various service providers to learn about healthy early childhood development.

However, before the initiative can move forward, an application for funding to Columbia Basin Trust (CBT) is in the works.

At the March 11th Warfield council meeting, Mayor Bert Crockett said that bringing together community resources ‘under one umbrella” is beneficial to all parents, especially those new to the area.

However, as the project does not qualify to be funded by a municipality, he fully supported the initiative in a letter to the CBT.

The bidding: North has 20 points but does not have the shape for 2NT. In fact, he likely has more points in a suit contract.

He opens one heart showing five hearts (we play fivecard major openings) and South knows they have the golden fit in hearts of at least eight cards.

So he bids one spade with the intention of showing heart fit if partner does not have four spades as well.

North knows they have at least 26 high cards points and a four-four spade fit.

He, therefore, jumps to four spades, which is game in the major.

More points can be scored if they bid and make game than if they play in a partscore (any contract below game).

One hardly wants to help declarer by leading his side suit.

A diamond lead is bad because, from the bidding, partner is likely to have four points or less.

The opponents probably have 25 points for their game bid. Unless partner has the queen of diamonds, a diamond lead just finesses West. Chances are not good enough to lead a diamond.

The only suit left is trump.

West leads his second trump.

Leading high low is normal with a doubleton when you want to tell partner you can get a ruff.

However, that is not the case when leading trump. So why give declarer any more information than the lead does already?

South leaves the last trump out.

He cashes the ace of diamonds and then all of his hearts, pitching (throwing away losers) two diamonds from his hand.

South will not draw the last trump and will not let East do it on his own. He wants two diamond ruffs (trumping a loser) and two club ruffs.

If East gets in, which he can’t do unless he ruffs, he would want to play his last trump so declarer gets one more trump trick but two less ruffing tricks.

The defenders will get the ace of clubs and a small spade whenever East takes it.

South will make five spades for +450, and if he draws three rounds of trump,

he will make four spades for +420.

Notes: -The four-four major fit is better than the five-three major fit because he can ruff with either hand in spades and he can pitch losers on the long hearts which he cannot do if hearts were trump. Four hearts can only ever make four for +420.

Local bishop sees great significance new choice of pope

By Barry Coulter

Cranbrook Daily Townsman

Wednesday’s historic events in Rome resonated around the world and in the Kootenays.

With the election of Argentine cardinal Jorge Bergoglio as the 266th Pontiff, the conclave of cardinals from around the world chose the first pope from the Western Hemisphere, the first Jesuit to be pope, and the first to choose the name Francis.

Bishop John Corriveau of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Nelson, which encompasses the East and West Kootenays and the south Okanagan, said there is great significant in these three points.

“As soon as they came out and announced the name of the new pope,

I was very excited,” said Bishop Corriveau. “I think there are a lot of symbolic things in (Wednesday’s) announcement that have great importance and show wonderful things for the future.

“It’s significant that he’s from Argentina, it’s significant that he’s a Jesuit, and it’s significant that he chose the name Francis.”

The Bishop said that in essence, the Catholic church has chosen a “pastoral” pope, with a special emphasis on evangelizing, on a commitment to the poor, and on a vision of Church unity.

“In Latin America we have what we call a mature church,” Bishop Corriveau said. “It’s been there for 500 years and developed its own character. It’s fully

Catholic but it’s got a very particular South American character.

“There are many aspects you could talk about here, but one aspect I think is of exceptional importance for the Latin American church is that it makes a special effort to be a populist church inserted among the people and particularly among the poor.”

The Bishop said that Pope Francis was strong on simplicity of life and contact with the ordinary people. “That flows into the second point, that he’s a Jesuit,” he said.

“It’s important to see what the Jesuits stand for.

They were particularly attached to the universal vision of the church, and putting themselves at the disposition of that univer-

sal vision. In a very particular way, they were strong evangelizers.”

Corriveau added that the name Francis could refer to both St. Francis of Assisi and Francis Xavier, one of the great visionaries of the early visionary movement.

“I think that’s very strong in (Francis’s) Jesuit tradition — strong obedience to the Church, obedience to that wider vision of Church, and a certain backbone. The Jesuits were regarded as being tough.

“I got a feeling that will serve well in his reorganization of the Vatican curia and the like. “ The choice of the name Francis has tremendous significance, Corriveau said. “Francis’s well-known love of animals is important, but only of tertiary

importance. In a special way, Francis embraced brotherhood/sisterhood with the poor. They were the privileged recipients of his attitudes. I think Cardinal Bergoglio taking the name Francis is emphasizing that.

“I think evangelizing through the poor is going to become a thrust of his ministry, and I’m absolutely fascinated to see how that’s going to play out in his life.”

Corriveau believes the conclave made a deliberate choice of a pope with this particular vision.

“Pope Benedict was a teacher. He was chosen at that time because the church felt they needed that strong leadership of teaching. But this time they obviously chose a very

intelligent man, a very well-prepared man, but his strong preparation is pastoral.

“This wasn’t a compromise candidate, this was a choice. He was elected with a two-thirds majority on the third ballot by a worldwide community. He represents a strong consensus within the church.”

As to the Catholic people of the Diocese, which includes Cranbrook and Kimberley, Corriveau thinks they’ll feel the same as him.

“As I know Catholics and the people of the Kootenays and the Okanagan, I think they’ll be delighted with the choice of the new pope.

“I was absolutely delighted; when those curtains parted it was a pleasant surprise.”

Budget concerns dominate SD20 board meeting

By Jim Sinclair Castlegar News

Budget-related discussion occupied a fair amount of time and attention from at the regular School District 20 board meeting on Monday night.

The discussion included an agenda item pertaining to trustee Mickey Kinakin’s desire for the formation of a budget advisory committee to meet with various stakeholders about four times a year.

“There’s never a detriment to having more information,” said Kinakin.

The rest of the board did not agree in sufficient numbers for the motion to go ahead.

Taking in the meeting was Andy Davidoff, president of the Kootenay Columbia Teachers Union, who later added his voice to those against the formation of a new budget committee.

“Basically our concern over the last two budgets was the lack of education stakeholder involvement in the process,” he said.

“We have publicly and privately expressed our concerns and dismay to the board about the lack of involvement between the DPAC (District Parent Advisory Committee), CUPE and ourselves.”

Board chair Darrell Ganzert, the following day addressed Davidoff’s critique.

“Last year the board received, and I think rightly so, some criticism for not involving them (KCTU and CUPE) in a meaningful way.

This year we’ve altered our process to include them in a meaningful way.”

Ganzert pointed to the closed meeting set for March 13 at which a “long list” of potential cuts to programs and services would be examined.

“We’ll go through that entire list with them, answering all the questions they have about that. Then we’ll leave it at that, for now.

“After spring break they be called again to a series of meetings to go through their reaction to the long list.

“Finally the school board will take that information and create a short list which we will them present to the stakeholders for there reaction.”

To wrap up, the board voted unanimously in favour of expanding late French Immersion to Rossland Secondary School provided a minimum of 25 students enroll for the program by April 30, and that the district LFI program for grades 10-12 remains at Stanley Humphries Secondary School.

The board also gave third and final reading to a bylaw paving the way for purchase of two 84-passenger buses for a price tag of $270,262.

Even though the fire was contained to one small room in the basement suite, there is considerable heat and smoke damage in the home.

Fire started in the basement suite From page 1 He said that once the crew did a ‘360’ of the house; they discovered that there indeed was a fire in the basement suite.

The fire itself was extinguished quickly, however, upon investigation it was noted that the fire had been burning for quite some time, said Martin.

The house contains a top floor suite that is vacant; and the basement suite, which is occupied on occasion by the owner’s son.

“We are working with the

owner and occupant to narrow down what was in the particular area that was burning,” said Martin.

Even though the fire was contained to one small room in the basement suite, because it was burning so long before detection, there is considerable heat and smoke damage, explained Martin.

At this point, the house is not live-able, he said.

Martin added that the explosion initially reported was, in fact, two aerosol cans that burst

due to the intense heat.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation, but suspicious activity has been ruled out. There were no injuries, said Martin.

Rob Hawton, sergeant of the Trail and Greater District RCMP, said that the cause of the fire is thought to be electrical, although it remains under RCMP investigation.

Selkirk Security guards are posted at the site to keep it secure until the investigation is completed.

Provincial Environmentalists challenge federal sage grouse secrecy in court THE CANADIAN PRESS VANCOUVER - Environmentalists are asking a Vancouver court to stop what they say is Ottawa’s use of cabinet secrecy to smother debate about protecting endangered species.

The Alberta Wilderness Association is

trying to find out what - if anything - the federal government plans to do about the imminent disappearance of sage grouse from the southern Prairies.

Environment Minister Peter Kent said about a year ago the government was considering its options.

But the department hasn’t updated that statement and won’t say if a decision has been made, claiming cabinet’s discussions must remain secret.

Environmental lawyers say such logic could dramatically reduce information that reaches the public and the courts.

Court to hear appeal of assisted suicide ruling THE CANADIAN PRESS VANCOUVER - The battle over doctorassisted suicide is expected to begin in the B.C. Court of Appeal, as the federal government fights a lower court order to rewrite laws governing the rights of terminally ill people to end their lives.

The fight was launched last June when a B.C. Supreme Court judge found laws against physician-assisted suicide violate the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

The federal government was ordered to rewrite its legislation and, in the interim, Gloria Taylor, one of the lead plaintiffs in the case, was granted an exemption to the assisted-suicide ban. But the Kelowna woman, who was in the advanced stages of ALS, died just a few months later without taking advantage of the exemption.

No ‘right answer’ in assisted suicide debate: lawyer THE CANADIAN PRESS VANCOUVER - A lawyer for the federal government told B.C.’s highest court that a lower court judge made a mistake by trying to find a “right answer” when it struck down the ban on doctor-assisted suicide. Donnaree Nygard says the issue of assisted suicide has groups on each side diametrically opposed,

meaning there is no correct answer and the charter seeks to strike a balance of everyone’s interests.

Nygard says Parliament has already weighed all sides of the debate and every time has agreed the needs of vulnerable people - like those with disabilities - outweigh the rights of those asking for the right to die.

opposes Ottawa’s appeal of the right to die ruling but critics of assisted suicide say it must go ahead to ensure the ill and elderly do not become victims of abuse. Experts

The case was brought to the courts by the daughter of an ailing 89-yearold Canadian woman who accompanied her mother to Switzerland in 2010 so the woman could legally end her life. The federal government appealed after a B.C. judge struck down the ban on doctor-assisted suicide and ordered government to rewrite law.

on both sides predict that regardless of B.C.’s high court ruling, the case could still go to the Supreme Court of Canada for a final decision.

New Family Law Act allows police to act more quickly in family violence issues THE CANADIAN PRESS VANCOUVER - B.C. Attorney General Shirley Bond says significant changes to the province’s Family Law Act come into play today, affecting anyone dealing with divorce, separation and family violence.

Bond says a major change adds teeth to restraining orders, formerly enforced through the civil justice system.

Under the revised Act, protection orders are covered by the criminal code, which Bond says permits timely, effective, potentially life-saving enforcement, because police can step in very quickly.

The group West Coast LEAF, which seeks equality rights legislation for women, says the Act, replacing the outdated Family Relations Act, also broadens the definition of family violence to include psychological and emotional abuse. It is pleased the courts are now required to take evidence of family violence into account when making decisions about the best interests of any children. But LEAF worries that the Act places significant emphasis on out-of-court settlements, without setting aside funds to cover the increased demands on mediators, arbitrators and family counsellors.

NATIONAL OBITUARIES SIDONI, ALBERT — It is with great sorrow we announce the death of our father and Nono, Albert Sidoni. Born in 1926 in Nanaimo, he was raised in Princeton BC, where at the age of 5, he picked up the nickname of ‘Dusty’ from a Pharmaceutical sales man who called upon the ‘dusty’ kid sitting on the fender of his car.

The name stuck and he became ‘Dusty’ to all who knew him.

He was an avid hunter, fisherman and his passion for hockey was life-long. After he was no longer able to play, he coached, then playing the game vicariously through his son’s, and grandchildren, attending as many games as possible. He held season tickets and was a big “Smokies” fan. Hockey was a very big part of his life.

Dad was born the fifth child in a family of six children, and was the last surviving member of his birth family. He was predeceased by grandson Christopher Boisvert in 2008, and most recently his beloved wife of 60 years, Elisa, who died tragically in April 2012. Never a day went by that he didn’t miss her.

He is survived by his 5 children, Debra (Mike) Boisvert; Sandra Cochran (Neil); Terry (Karen); Alan (Sandra); Kelly (Shannon); 12 grandchildren and 7 great-grandchildren.

As a young man, Dad worked at the brewery in Princeton driving truck. Later, he worked at the Pulp mills in Castlegar and then in Prince Rupert, where he supervised the boom crew, a job that he loved. At 50+, off to college he went (in Terrace) to get a trade. Mom and Dad returned to Trail where Dad finished his working life as a Welder at Comino.

Dad always had a great sense of humor, always finding something to laugh at, even if it was himself. He was also a prankster, and got as good as he gave. The kids and grandkids were always trying to put one over on him, he was a great entertainer. He could tell a good story, real or imagined, he would have all the kids clamoring around, sitting at his feet for a story and he never disappointed.

Dad lived a full and active life right up until the end. He loved living; he wasn’t a quitter and worked around his limitations. He had quintuple bypass heart surgery in the early 90’s, he was a renal patient 3 times a week since 2008 and had suffered 3 strokes. He wasn’t much of a complainer and always opted for taking a chance on living!

Just this fall he was out quadding up Bear Creek, came home covered in mud and a big smile on his face, he had had a blast! His body gave out before his spirit ever did. Dad was loved and respected by so many people and will be greatly missed.

The family would like to thank the Renal staff at the Kootenay Boundary Regional Hospital and the Assisted Living staff at Rosewood for their care and compassion shown towards our Dad. As an expression of sympathy the family requests that donations be made in Dad’s name to the Renal Unit, at the Kootenay Boundary Regional Hospital at 1200 Hospital Bench, Trail, BC V1R 4M1 or online at www.kbrhhealthfoundation.ca.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church on Friday, March 22, 2013 at 10:30 am with Father Jim McHugh, Celebrant. Bill Clark of Alternatives Funeral and Cremation Services™ has been entrusted with arrangements.

You are invited to leave a personal message of condolence at the family’s online register at www.myalternatives.ca

Amid growing use of ‘off-label’ drugs, health experts call for closer scrutiny

BY JANE GERSTER

THE CANADIAN PRESS

OTTAWA - Six years ago, Ellyn Braun’s doctor told her that the acne medication she was taking could double as birth control, even though Health Canada doesn’t regulate it as a form of contraception.

The drug, Diane-35, is regulated for temporary acne treatment, but Braun’s been using it on a permanent basis as a birth control pill - even though it has been linked to the deaths of nine Canadians since 2000. That doesn’t seem to faze Braun.

“I think there’s a place for it, but you just have to be careful about it,” says the 28-year-old medical student at McMaster University in Hamilton.

She’s far from alone. “Off-label” prescriptions - using drugs to treat illnesses for which they haven’t been approved by Health Canada is a growing “social experiment” in Canada that demands more careful scrutiny, experts say. Canada needs a national monitoring system to keep tabs on the practice, said Dr. Robyn Tamblyn, scientific director with the Canadian Institutes of Health Research and a researcher at McGill University in Montreal.

A study co-authored last year by Tamblyn found 11 per cent of prescriptions in Canada are off-label; in 79 per cent of those cases, there was no evidence to back up the doctor’s decision.

The study found most of the drugs used for unregulated purposes were anticonvulsants, antipsychotics and antidepressants. As well, it found that if the drug was approved for three or four different uses by Heath Canada, it was

less likely to be used off-label as opposed to drugs only approved for one or two uses.

Tamblyn proposed the idea of a monitoring system to the Senate committee on Social Affairs, Science and Technology last week, and intends to pitch Health Canada on the same idea later this month.

Health Canada has historically rejected the idea of regulating drugs, saying it can’t control what doctors prescribe.

With the exception of Quebec, most provinces don’t require doctors to say why they prescribed a certain drug or whether it’s offlabel, leaving researchers to grapple with the possibility of unknown side effects. The infrastructure is already in place for a monitoring system, said Tamblyn, which would require doctors and pharmacists to note on electronic prescriptions whether the drug is off-label, as well as their reasons for prescribing it.

That’s where Health Canada, which already partners with the provinces through the Drug Safety and Effectiveness Network, would fit in as the regulatory body for monitoring drug safety: “It really is a shared responsibility.”

Dr. Joel Lexchin, a professor at York University in Toronto, said he agrees in principle with the idea of monitoring off-label drugs.

But the federal Conservative government prefers to maintain a clear line between federal responsibilities and those that are the clear domain of the provinces, such as the delivery of health care, Lexchin said.

That means a national system would likely never see the light of day.

THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO - The Canadian dollar pulled back Monday as the Mediterranean island nation of Cyprus announced a planned levy on bank deposits that roiled international markets.

The loonie fell 0.21 of a cent to 97.90 cents US near midday.

In Cyprus, lawmakers postponed until Tuesday night a vote on a deposit tax of 6.75 per cent on accounts of up to (euro)100,000 (US$131,000) and 9.9 per cent on accounts over that amount.

The tax is among conditions demanded by international creditors in order for Cyprus to get (euro)10 billion (US$13 billion) in bailout loans.

The tax on ordinary citizens’ savings is an unprecedented step in Europe’s 3 1/2-year-old debt crisis and has stoked fears of bank runs in the other 16 countries that use the euro.

“There is quite a lot to navigate through with all that is occurring and if Cypriot concerns remain and the (U.S.) Federal Open Market Committee statement is hawkish” the loonie could drop further, John Curran, senior vicepresident of CanadianForex Ltd., said in a note.

The two-day FOMC meeting begins Tuesday and is widely expected to affirm the Fed’s plans to continue its US$85 billion monthly bond purchases, though comments could provide more certainty on how much longer the program will last. In commodities, the April crude contract on the New York Mercantile Exchange fell 26 cents to US$93.19 a barrel. April gold bullion rose $9.60 to US$1,602.20 an ounce.

Both provincial parties have betrayed us There was some public business conducted in the final frantic days of the B.C. legislature session last week, but you likely wouldn’t have heard much about it.

Premier Christy Clark’s skimpy governing agenda was overshadowed by the delivery of an internal investigation report into her government’s ethnic outreach program.

A review by four deputy ministers detailed what reporters already knew from a memo and meeting notes leaked to the NDP. The plan started in the premier’s office, led by Clark’s deputy chief of staff, who resigned as soon as it was made public.

A B.C. Liberal Party employee attended the first meeting, expressly intended to organize events to impress immigrant communities, then harvest the goodwill in the form of contact lists for the coming election campaign.

After 10,000 e-mails

TOM

FLETCHER B.C. Views

were collected and 27 interviews conducted, they revealed a few significant details.

Former multiculturalism minister John Yap knew or should have known that the scheme was being kept secret because it was an inappropriate use of government resources.

He won’t be back in cabinet, although Clark said he intends to run for re-election in RichmondSteveston.

Yap’s executive assistant resigned when the report came out, admitting he helped cover the tracks of

political meddling in the hiring of three outreach contractors with sufficient loyalty to the party.

Clark insists she knew nothing of this plan.

She tabled the investigation report, and then announced that the B.C. Liberal Party had written a $70,000 cheque to the government to cover the estimated cost of the inappropriate political work done by non-political staff.

Here’s the part taxpayers may not fully appreciate. There are authorized political staffers all over the legislature, in the premier’s office, the opposition leader’s office and two teams of caucus employees who spend much of their time digging up dirt on the other party. All are paid by you and me.

A line is crossed only when a non-political employee such as a ministry communications director acts on behalf of the party.

The main offender in

that capacity was one Brian Bonney, whose records suggested he spent half of his time on party work. He quit in February, before the plan was leaked, and the party paid back half of his salary for the 18 months he was on the public payroll.

NDP outrage over this was blunted by another leaked document. This one was from a never-released 2010 report by Auditor General John Doyle, which condemned a five-year program of skimming money from NDP constituency office budgets all over the province and using it for political work.

In a nice bit of symmetry, much of the more than $400,000 was spent to put three-time candidate Gabriel Yiu on the NDP caucus payroll.

Yiu’s VancouverFraserview candidate page boasts of his ethnic outreach work, which included tirelessly warning B.C.’s Chinese community about the evils of the harmonized

sales tax.

In fact, it was the NDPYiu operation that inspired a B.C. Liberal copycat plan.

The NDP quietly stopped the budget skimming after Doyle pointed out the blindingly obvious, which is that constituency funds are to serve constituents and are not to be diverted to political organizing.

It was kept under wraps by the secretive Legislative Assembly Management Committee. This is the B.C. Liberal-NDP co-managed trough of undocumented MLA expenses and other questionable payments that Doyle has only recently dragged into the light.

Both of these schemes have the same stink. Both are intentional abuse of taxpayers’ money for the political gain of the dominant parties. There is no moral high ground for either of them.

Letters & Opinion Letters to the editor

Supporting fair, equitable and transparent practices on Trail city council While I appreciate the work and dedication that Mayor Dieter Bogs and Trail city council give to the City of Trail, I do not support the decision that Trail city council has unanimously made to adopt Park Disposal Bylaw #2750 to dispose of park land on Rosewood Drive to one family because this bylaw does not support the type of fair and equitable or transparent practices which I expect Trail city council to abide by when selling city (taxpayer)-owned park land.

The property on Rosewood Drive is zoned R1. R1 zoning carries the broad title of single family residential but this does not mean that a house needs to be built on the property.

There are many permitted uses of R1 zoned properties, including parks and playgrounds. Zoning bylaws are used to put the vision of the Official Community Plan into practical, legalistic terms.

The Official Community Plan shows the property on Rosewood Drive is dedicated as park land by subdivision Plan #4687 and it has been park land since 1962.

The Community Charter states that electoral approval is required to remove the dedication of park land before this land can be disposed of by sale.

Once electoral approval is achieved, the Community Charter does not dictate the manner in which the sale of park land is brought to market; Trail city council makes this decision.

The Trail city council policy manual clearly states “Lands in the first instance, shall be sold by sealed bid pursuant to the provisions of the Municipal Act and thereafter across the counter.”

A City of Trail Facebook posting states that the property could not be sold as a sealed bid “because the land was dedicated as park” and “the City could not proceed on a speculative basis.“ The definition of speculative is, “The act of trading in an asset, or conducting a financial transaction, that has a significant risk of losing most or all of

the initial outlay, in expectation of a substantial gain.”

The definition of reserve price auction is “a price a seller can set when they create an auction-style listing. It’s the minimum price they’re willing to accept for an item. If the bidding doesn’t reach this price, they aren’t obligated to sell the item.”

I feel that Trail city council could have chosen to write a bylaw which allowed for electoral consent in the sale of the park land on Rosewood Drive and offered the property for sale through a reserve price, highest sealed bid auction which would have honored the criteria set out in the Community Charter and the “first instance” policy of the Trail city council policy manual and allowed this family and any other interested parties to enter a sealed bid; removing all speculation and creating a fair, equitable and transparent sale.

The resulting sale of a property sold through a highest sealed bid auction would create a real estate sales comparable in the Glenmerry neighbourhood which would accurately reflect today’s market.

The resulting sale of this park land, if sold through the adoption of Bylaw #2750 for the amount of $115,000 for a 10,300 square foot lot, when registered with the Land Title Office will create a real estate sales comparable which will give neighbouring properties that are currently property tax assessed at $83,500 for 5,400 sq. ft. lots valid grounds to dispute their BC property tax assessments.

The Community Charter states that in the case of park land by subdivision, “all proceeds from the sale must be placed in a park land acquisition reserve fund.”

This money cannot go into general revenue; it must be used to acquire land to build a park.

Any maintenance costs saved here or assessment base gained here will be offset by maintenance costs spent and assessment base lost with the purchase and development requirements of

building new park land.

The Trail city council policy clearly states “In general, the City should retain land in its possession for parks or green belt purposes, road or utility development of the land or area and for other public related uses.”

The Official Community Plan for the City of Trail reads “The Official Community Plan survey results indicate a desire to improve maintenance standards of existing parks prior to considering the construction of new parks or recreational facilities within the city”.

While I have read a statement made in the local paper and on Facebook that the city does not intend to sell further city-owned lots at this time, I have also read a City of Trail Memorandum File #0810-07 which clearly states that the sale of this property “provides an opportunity to encourage infill development.”

There are presently several parcels of park land and green space located in various neighbourhoods in the city of Trail which are similarly designated as park land.

If the citizens of Trail allow city council to adopt Bylaw #2750 in its present form, it will set a precedence which will allow this council and future city councils to sell park land in any neighbourhood in the City of Trail to private individuals, using a Notice of Alternative Approval Process to achieve electoral consent with an appraised price in exactly this same way.

For this reason I encourage citizens to consider supporting the petition which requires 600 signatures before April 2 that is currently available at the Colander, Bella Tire, Little T’s, The Mohawk Gas Station and by request at saveourparks@outlook.com.

I have nothing but respect and empathy for a family who just wants to buy some property to build a home. I feel that Trail city council could have chosen to handle your request much differently.

Rebels dominate Rockets

BY TIMES STAFF After defeating the Beaver Valley Nitehawks in a grueling seven game series, the Castlegar Rebels had an easier time of it against Golden, as they won 4-0 and 7-1 in its opening matches of the Kootenay Conference final on the weekend.

In Saturday’s match, Trail native Jamie Vlanich netted the winning goal at 4:08 of the first period as the Rebels dominated the Rockets outshooting them 19-8 and taking a 4-0 lead into the middle frame.

Vlanich has eight goals and nine assists in 14 games and shares

the team scoring lead with the Rebels’ Stuart Walton each with 17 points. The 19-year-old forward is third overall in playoff scoring behind Beaver Valley Nitehawk Ryan Edwards, first with 26 points, and Osoyoos Coyote and Fruitvale native Garrett Kucher, 20 points.

Former Nitehawk netminder Cody Boekman took over for Jamie Leonard between the pipes and Golden was able to generate some offensive pressure on the Rebels only to be consistently denied by goalie Jordan Gluck.

The end of an era for Royals

BY JIM BAILEY

Times Sports Editor

The Rossland Secondary School Royals competed in what could likely be it’s final provincial tournament last week.

The rich sports history of RSS athletics is scheduled to end after School District 20 (SD20) trustees voted in favour late last month of moving secondary school grades down to Trail, and closing MacLean Elementary School.

Nonetheless, the RSS senior girls basketball team gave it their all at the single-A provincial championships last week in Prince George, looking to leave a lasting impression.

The number nine ranked Royals won two games and lost two games in the 16-team event that hit the hard court Mar. 6-10. Opening the tournament with a 66-49 loss to eighth-ranked Kelowna Christian, the team bounced back with a convincing 76-47 win over Duncan Christian.

Kaela Zimmer drained 15 points for the Royals,

dialing in three, three-pointers to lead the squad.

RSS then played Bulkley Valley Christian and battled hard coming back from a 41-38 deficit in the third quarter, and scoring 21 points in the final-15 to eke out a thrilling 59-57 victory.

Annie Cameron led the Royals with 18 points, while Zimmer drained 11, and Kaycee McKinnon nailed the same number, including two threepointers in the fourth quarter.

Unfortunately, their exciting run would come to a close with a devastating 52-46 loss to Unity Christian from Vancouver with Cameron netting 11-points for RSS. The Royals had a great season winning tournaments in Creston, Grand Forks, Kamloops, Trail, and the Zone Championships in Rossland.

The team posting a impressive record of 28 victories and three losses.

Number-two ranked Immaculata took the provincial single-A title with a 58-53 victory over top-seeded Cedars Christian.

BY TIMES STAFF The Greater Trail minor hockey Bantam AA Smokies got off to a winning start at the provincials in Kelowna Sunday.

The Bantam AA trounced Cranbrook 8-1 in its first game of the tournament.

Led by Ross Armour who netted two goals and two assists, the Smokies were relentless in their attack.

Evan Gorman also scored twice in the victory that included goals from Blake Sidoni, Landon Gill, Aidan Browell and Matthew Alderson.

The Smokies played Williams Lake Monday but scores

were unavailable at press time. They face Kelowna tonight at 7:30 p.m. with playoffs and finals going Wednesday, and the championship game at 8 p.m.

In other provincial action, the West Kootenay Bantam A Wildcats got a late goal to salvage a 3-3 tie with Vernon. With the clock winding down, the Wildcats pulled their goalie, and Trail’s Jessica Bonacci converted a pass from Kendra Waterstreet with 1:06 left on the clock to pull off the tie.

Vernon took a 1-0 lead in the first, but Waterstreet would

Saints win B.C. college title

BY KIRSTEN HILDEBRAND Nelson Star

The Selkirk College Saints celebrated Saturday night as they claimed the BC Intercollegiate Hockey League title in an exciting 3-2 overtime win at the Nelson District Community Complex.

The Saints notched the championship win against

the Simon Fraser University Clansmen after a bold come from behind effort sent them into extra play.

After taking the opening game 2-0 Friday, forward Cody Fidgett scored the winning goal, unassisted just 3:11 into overtime to clinch the best of three championship.

“I can’t even put words to it.

It’s probably the biggest goal I’ve ever scored. It’s fantastic,” he told the Nelson Star after the game.

“It was a hard fought comeback.”

SFU was first on the scoreboard with a penalty shot goal

by Kale Wild at 4:37 left in the first period.

tie it at 1:46 with an assist going to Juli Sidoni. The Cats then would jump out into a 2-1 lead on a goal from Merissa Dawson, but the Lakers would come right back to tie it 90 seconds later, and would take the lead with just over a minute to play in the period.

The Cats played Juan de Fuca Monday afternoon, and TriCities and Prince George today at 9:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. respectively before playoffs commence on Wednesday.

The GTMHA Pee Wee AA’s got off to a rough start suffering a 9-2 loss to the Burnaby Winter Club Sunday, however, the game was a lot closer then the score indicated as Trail fell behind 4-0 in the first period, but kept pressuring the Burnaby goal, ending with an equal number of shots.

The Greater Trail Midget AA also dropped its first match with a 7-2 setback to West Kelowna Sunday.

The Midget AAs played Vancouver Monday and will finish the opening round against Williams Lake today at 11:30 a.m.

Sports bchl roundup

Penticton takes first two over Backs

by Times contributor A former Trail Smoke Eater led the Penticton Vees to victory, with two third-period goals to come back and defeat the Salmon Arm SilverBacks 4-2 and take a 2-0 series lead.

Harlan Orr and Shane Hanna scored in the second to give the ‘Backs a 2-1 lead after two, but former Smokie and Cranbrook native Sam Mellor, Thomas Nitsche and Mellor again scored to complete the comeback.

Josh Monk’s overtime winner gave the West Kelowna Warriors a 3-2 win in Game 2 and a 2-0 series lead on the Merritt Centennials. Silvan Harper opened the scoring for

Merritt with the only goal of the first but Daniel Gayle tied it early in the second. Regan Soquila and Ambrose Firkus swapped goals in the third, setting the stage for OT where Monk ended it at the 10:27 mark.

Frustrated after outshooting the Prince George Spruce Kings badly in Game 1 but losing 3-1, the Chilliwack Chiefs took out some aggression with a 10-1 win in Game 2, while the Langley Rivermen turned the tables on the Surrey Eagles with a 1-0 win in Game 2 after being blanked 2-0 themselves in Friday’s opener.

Michael Santaguida was good in the Eagles net making

37 saves to earn second Star.

Trevor Fitzgerald’s goal 2:01 into overtime, his second of the game, gave the Nanaimo Clippers a 3-2 win over the Alberni Valley Bulldogs and put the Clips up 2-0 in the best-offive series.

The Powell River Kings fell behind early in Game 2 but replied 25 seconds later and went on to a 3-1 win over the Victoria Grizzlies. Luke Nogard tied the game after Zach Urban had put Victoria ahead. Evan Richardson’s goal late in the first on the power play was the winner and Teagan Waugh had the insurance midway through the second. Jonah Imoo got the win with 24 saves.

Fidgett nets OT winner

FROM PAGE 11 Then, early in the second, the Clansmen made it 2-0 off a goal by Brenden Silvester from Colton Graf.

Mason Spear and Fidgett assisted making it 2-1 at the end of the second.

The Saints came out hard in the third and it was captain Jordan Wood who scored the huge tying goal off a pass from assistant captain Logan Proulx of Trail midway through the third.

With good pressure, the Selkirk team had several more scoring chances that kept the crowd on the edge of their seats.

About to go into overtime, Assistant coach Jamie Freiss said they let the guys know this was the time to capitalize on the tired SFU defensive line.

“We said let’s take ‘em wide. Let’s make sure we put the pucks on net and sure enough, it went in. Our speed finally paid off for us in the end,” he said.

Fidgett’s goal brought down the house with the jubilant Saints bursting to the ice and the crowd cheering the champions on.

Assistant captain Scott Swiston was ecstatic after the game.

“There’s no better feeling in the world right now. You only really get these opportunities really once in a lifetime. This is the first time I’ve won a trophy as big as this. You are just never going to forget it or the people you won it with,” he said. “Start to finish we knew we wanted this more than them. We played with a ton of heart and I think we deserved it.”

The third-seeded Mota defeated fourth-seed Adrenaline Adventures in the final 82-76 with Steve Mota leading the way with 26 points.

Wellman leads Rebels FROM PAGE 11 The Rockets outshot Castlegar 27-16 through the final two periods but could only manage a shorthanded goal by Josh Jewel with 59 seconds remaining in the second to make it 5-1.

Travis Wellman led the way for the Rebels scoring twice and adding an assist for a three-point night,

while Aaron Brewer, Ryan Osteroff, Bryan Lubin, and Walton rounded out the scoring for the Rebels.

In other KIJHL action, Garrett Kucher had another big night for the Osoyoos Coyotes scoring two goals and adding an assist as the Coyotes defeated the North Okanagan Knights Friday 6-2.

No child should be forced to touch anybody Mailbox

Marcy Sugar & Kathy Mitchell

to hug, kiss or even touch another person, even a relative. You certainly can encourage or suggest that she “give Grandma a kiss goodbye,” but nothing more than that. If the child balks, don’t push or express displeasure.

Leave it alone. Some kids are naturally reluctant to display that type of affection, and it has nothing to do with molestation. Kids who are forced to hug Aunt Jane, whose breath reeks and who tends to pinch their cheeks, will not be endearing her to them. And yes, kids who think they must permit adults to touch them are more likely to remain quiet if they are

can’t figure out what to do. Any suggestions?

-- Want To Help Dear Want: We suspect Rita is embarrassed by the condition of her house and doesn’t want her friends to clean it.

She also may be having financial difficulties, making repair work beyond her means.

Could you get a group of friends together to hire a cleaning service?

Tell Rita you know she hasn’t had time to clean and you are worried about her. Say that you’d like to present her with the cleaning service as a gift. Ask her what day works best, and then set it up. However, there isn’t much you can do if she absolutely refuses your assistance. An unkempt house is not cause for alarm, and if Rita is, in fact, hoarding, she’ll need more help than you can provide.

Dear Annie: Like “Well Endowed in Kansas,” my breasts were often the topic of conversation. After my

second child was born, my chest ballooned to a size GG on my size-8 frame. Carrying around a 1-year-old and an infant in addition to my chest was unbearable.

Enduring the leers and snide jokes from disgusting men and the backhanded comments

from other women was demoralizing.

Breast reduction surgery changed my life. No more comments, conversations or back pain. I wear regular bathing suits and bras. It’s liberating to feel and look like an appropriately pro-

portioned woman. -“Breast” of Luck to You Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column. Please email your questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net

molested.

Dear Annie: My best friend of 30 years is a hoarder -- not the “Buried Alive” type, but more the Need To Clean House type. “Rita” has not invited me over to her home in more than three years, while she has been to mine several times.

I want Rita to enjoy her house again and have offered on numerous occasions to help clean. She agrees that she needs it, but never follows through.

What else can I do?

I’ve thought of calling Rita’s sister, who lives out of town, to advise her of the severity of the situation. However, I’m not sure the sister can get away to come, in which case my call would only upset her.

And Rita wouldn’t appreciate that I called her sister.

Last week, a mutual friend told me that the roof of Rita’s house looks bad. She lives in the neighborhood and walks by every day. We

Dear Annie: I have a question about forced touching. Let’s say an 8-year-old doesn’t want to hug her uncle or give Grandma a kiss. Do you force the kid to do it?

Do you badger, threaten and make a fuss?

I’m wondering about this because if you tell your kid, “You have to give this person a hug” or “You have to shake their hand,” aren’t you teaching the kid that their body doesn’t belong to them? If you force your kid to allow others to put their hands on your kid’s body, how will they know when they shouldn’t be touched at all?

I hear all these people coming forward to say they were molested as kids by uncles, grandparents and other relatives, and that they didn’t say anything because they were taught that an adult could touch them at will. -- New York Dear New York: No child should be forced

Just accept this, and use the energy to go after what you want.

you’re wondering about your basic values. You know you need to know what really matters in life.

YOU BORN TODAY
