Partnership provides job skills and clean-up BY ART HARRISON Times Staff

The City of Trail and Ashland Training Centre (ATC) have embarked on a team project to provide needed job skills to some local residents while cleaning up some of the overgrown areas of the city. The city and ATC teams are focusing on two community projects in the area. The initial project has a team cutting dead brush and removing debris, old shrubbery, and accumulated pine needles on the hillside directly below the Kootenay Boundary Regional Hospital

and above a portion of the East Trail neighbourhood. The second project on the books will see the joint teams carrying on with general brush clearing and cleanup and also include cutting back overgrown vegetation from the city’s 50 covered staircases throughout Trail. After the first two weeks of work progress is already obvious as the team cleans up the forest floor, removing potential fire hazards before the summer heats up. “When I first saw the area that they’d

be working in I thought, ‘good luck,’” said ATC program coordinator, Kathleen Jackson. “But you can already see a pretty big improvement.” The 10-week Job Options BC WORC (Work Opportunities Referrals and Connections) Program, is jointly funded by the federal and provincial governments from the Canada/BC Labour Market agreement. The program provides local unemployed individuals with six weeks of employment training workshops, See PROJECT, Page 2

The glass is almost full for the Village of Montrose as the final stages of its water treatment project began earlier this week, The on-line chlorination process began on “Changes in Tuesday, and for village both taste residents, this change to the tap water will and odour will most likely be noticeobviously able. be more As the tap water reaches “official” noticeable ...” water quality, it may KEVIN CHARTRES taste or smell a little odd, explained Kevin Chartres, chief administrative officer for the village. “Changes in both taste and odour will obviously be more noticeable because the system was previously un-chlorinated.” Chartres said that in addition, while the chlorine works to clean the inside of the pipes, the taste and odour will be more noticeable until a free residual of chlorine is maintained. He said it will take some time to obtain a consistent level of chlorine in the system, and levels could fluctuate from 0.2 to 1.5 parts per million (ppm), but ultimately the regulation requires 0.2 mg of chlorine per litre of water at the end of the lines. “After a few weeks, most consumers will easily adjust to the difference,” he added. For those who continue to notice the chlorine taste, the village suggests that drinking See NORMAL, Page 2

Election’s final voting results complete BY SHERI REGNIER Times Staff

Drum roll please. The final voting results are in and the winner of the Kootenay West riding is still Katrine Conroy. The final count, which includes absentee ballots that were not considered part of the initial count, was completed this week by the district electoral officer at the election office on McQuarrie Street in East

Trail. In the initial count, which is preliminary and only includes ballots cast under general voting and advance voting, NDP incumbent Conroy received 10,606 votes or 62.99 per cent of the popular vote. Although, no big surprises were expected in the Kootenay West riding, district electoral officer Don Vinish, said absentee ballots could conceivably have

changed the outcome, but this time around, it is status quo. Conroy received an additional 743 votes from absentee ballots, which tallies to 11,349 or 63.04 per cent of the final vote count. Jim Postnikoff, BC Liberal Party candidate, received an additional 239 votes which upped his percentage to 21.33 from 21.28 per cent of support on voting day. Interestingly, Glen Byle,

independent, received an additional 31 votes, to bring his final count to 431. Those votes only increased his percentage of the popular vote from 2.38 to 2.39. Joseph Hughes, independent, received 152 votes cast through absentee ballots, but according to the Elections BC website, this diminished his percentage of the popular vote to 13.28, from 13.3 on election day. See related story on Page 4.

By Times Staff The search for a missing Trail man is on hold as RCMP await more equipment before continuing. Sgt. Darryl Little of the Kootenay Boundary Regional Detachment told the Trail Times on Wednesday, the RCMP is awaiting sonar equipment to aid in the search for 32-yearold Michael Guthrie of Trail. “The sonar equipment is being tested and should arrive later in the week,” he said in an email reply. Guthrie is presumed drowned at Little Wilson Lake near New Denver. On Saturday, Slocan Lake RCMP attended

the scene and spoke with two Trail men who were camping with Guthrie. At that time, it was determined that Guthrie had been fishing with one of the men in the canoe, according to Nakusp/Slocan Lake RCMP Cpl. Ryan Fehr. “The canoe capsized and both men entered the water; one was able to swim to shore (while) the other is presumed drowned,” he explained in a press release issued Sunday. Little explained that serach and rescue crews are available but were not deplyed on Wednesday and no helicopter will be used at this point. He added the search

is concentrated on the lake based on accounts from the other boater who was in capsized canoe. The sonar equip-

City of Trail puts pigeon control issues on hold By Sheri Regnier Times Staff

A plan to rid the City of Trail of its pigeon population has been grounded. On Monday night, council passed a motion to defer any action on pigeon control measures,citing budgetary deficiency and significant cost associated with its latest proposal. David Perehudoff, chief administrative officer, noted that there was very little interest in the city’s latest request for proposal for pigeon control from a qualified pest control service. Only one proposal was submitted, and at a cost of $42,000, the latest option proved too costly, exceeding the 2013 budget by $17,000. West Kootenay Pest Control (WKPC) from Trail submitted a plan that recommended live trapping and euthanasia. WKPC also recommended

that all the openings on the Victoria Street Bridge arches be closed using netting to prevent pigeon nesting. Although the Ministry of Transportation covered some of the openings, the majority remain open. Perehudoff said that this cost could be substantial and was not included within the WKPC proposal. He explained that even if the proposal was completed for the price quoted, the pigeon population would continue to pose an ongoing issue. “It is important to note that while they (WKPC) are suggesting they can do this for one year, the population will continue to grow. “Whereby the city will have to continue to retain them for a number of years.” Further, Warren Proulx, engineering manager for the city said in a letter to the city that WKPC estimated a two

month time-line would reduce the pigeon population, but the solution would only be temporary. “Elimination of 100 per cent of the pigeons may be impossible and can only work if the bridge openings are netted and our citizens refrain from feeding the pigeons,” explained Proulx. Coun. Sean Mackinlay said that he is happy to see the pigeon issue put on the back burner for the year. “In my mind this has been a colossal waste of staff time.” However, not all council agreed with the deferral. “We are starting our Trail market on June 7 on the esplanade,” said Coun. Eleanor Gattafoni-Robinson. “So we will be testing the waters on how many pigeons will be there,” she said. “Because you have to be there to see them, not one or two, there is many.”

Fruitvale

LCIC hosts business forum By Sheri Regnier Times Staff

It was an expansive project and long time coming, but the results are finally in. Tonight at the Fruitvale Memorial Hall, open to the public at 7 p.m., the Lower Columbia Initiatives Corporation (LCIC) will unveil the results of its year long business retention and expansion project. “We’ve completed 147 interviews and processed all that information,” said Terry Van Horn, LCIC coordinator. “Now we are rolling it out to you.” Included in the study are existing businesses in the communities of Trail, Rossland, Fruitvale, Montrose and Warfield. Van Horn said that process itself was extensive and initially she was met with some resistance by a few of the local businesses. “So many times we heard, “oh yeah another survey that nothing is going to get done about,”” she said. “We heard, “why should we help you?”” Van Horn explained that the LCIC made a commitment to the business owners that they would host a series of forums to present and discuss the results of its

97-question survey. “We are committed to report all our findings to the business community and public,” explained Van Horn. “And then we are going to take the recommendations and incorporate them into future initiatives so the businesses can continue to prosper.” The business retention and expansion survey is intended to provide an in-depth view of business sectors; current climate of business development; anticipated future growth; barriers to growth; and a basis for future economic development strategies. Although businesses in the region are planning significant investment, $60 million, over the next five years, a lack of skilled staff was commonly cited as a barrier to its expansion. In addition, many respondents reported issues with retaining employees and that recruitment of new employees proved to be a challenge. “We heard a lot about the challenges businesses had with recruiting people with specific skills,” said Van Horn. “And we heard a lot about bringing in skilled guys and then having them jump ship.”

Speculation that sold pulp mill will become LNG plant By Paul Rudan

Campbell River Mirror

The new owners of the Elk Falls mill site have yet to make a formal announcement, but there’s already speculation it could become a liquified natural gas (LNG) plant. “We can’t offer a lot of details right now,” said David Erdman of Quicksilver Resources. “Our intent is to start a feasibility study on suitable uses. It could include LNG, working with potential partners.” On Friday, Catalyst Paper announced it had finally sold the former pulp and paper mill site to to Quicksilver Resources of Canada Inc. for $8.6 million. Quicksilver Resources is based in Fort Worth, Texas, while its wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary is located in Calgary. The private company has about 500 employees in Canada and the U.S., and explores for, produces and acquires natural gas and oil reserves. “I think it’s excellent news,” said Vic Goodman, executive director of Rivercorp, Campbell River’s economic development agency. “We’ll be working with (Quicksilver) to re-establish the industrial tax base – it’s time to put that valuable property to good use.”

Goodman wouldn’t say what the 400-acre industrial site will be used for, only that Quicksilver will be releasing more information in the coming weeks. However, with a plentiful supply of relatively cheap natural gas and a deep-water port, rumours abound Elk Falls could become an LNG plant. That would hardly be a surprise. There are already six proposals to build LNG plants in Kitimat and Prince Rupert, and last month the province announced there are proposals for another four plants in B.C. Building a new LNG plant at Elk Falls would cost billions. For example, in Melford, Nova Scotia, the Indian company H-Energy is planning to build a $3-billion LNG plant and export terminal capable of exporting 1.5 billion cubic feet of natural gas per day. In a phone interview Tuesday from his office in Fort Worth, Erdman said Quicksilver would need to form partnerships and a consortium if it pursues the LNG route. Elk Falls opened as a pulp and paper mill in 1952 and was permanently closed by Catalyst Paper in 2010.

CRTC hands out hefty fines for robocalls

Quebec

Sweeping drug busts THE CANADIAN PRESS MONTREAL - Authorities say they’ve put a dent in the next generation of organized crime with a sweeping series of drug-trafficking arrests Thursday. Police say the 20 people arrested in raids had been plying their trade in Montreal’s Briefs east-end and were looking to grow their business. Cmdr. Ian Lafreniere described the group as up-and-comers, with the average age of those arrested being around 30. “We are talking about young people who are taking the place of other people that have been there,” said Lafreniere, a senior Montreal police spokesman. The other notable element is that, while the group is allegedly linked to the Italian Mafia, he said it doesn’t have any affiliation to a specific clan, like the Rizzutos. Organized crime has been in a state of flux in the last few years with a series of attacks against Mafia-linked figures and analysts have wondered whether anyone was in charge.

Nunavut

Residents lock up gas THE CANADIAN PRESS KUGLUKTUK, Nunavut - A young boy’s death has inspired a remote Arctic community to adopt a unique response to the problem of gas-sniffing. People in Kugluktuk along the central Arctic coast are locking up gas containers in tough wooden boxes to keep them away from young people bent on inhaling fumes to get high. Northerners depend on snow machines and quads to get around, and gasoline jerry cans are commonly stored in people’s yards where sniffers can get at them. But after a young teenager died last summer from inhaling fumes, the community decided something had to be done. Carpenters built 121 rugged wooden boxes that can be locked up tight and have distributed them throughout the community.

THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA - Political parties, elected officials and the telemarketer used by the elusive “Pierre Poutine” to make fraudulent telephone calls during the 2011 federal election have been slapped with hefty fines for breaking the rules for robocalls. The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission made the surprise announcement Wednesday that it has dished out a combined $369,000 in penalties as part of a wide-ranging investigation into the use of robocalls. The regulator also hinted at more fines in the offing. The federal Conservatives and NDP, Ontario’s Progressive Conservatives, Alberta’s Wildrose Party, Liberal MP Marc Garneau, Conservative MP Blake Richards and Edmonton-based RackNine Inc. were all fined for various offences. The penalties run from a few thousand dollars for Garneau up to $90,000 for Wildrose - the largest amount ever levied against a political party by the CRTC. So far, the regulator says, Wildrose, the Ontario Conservatives, the NDP, RackNine and Garneau have all paid their fines. The federal Conservative party,

which was fined $78,000, and Richards, who was fined $14,400, have yet to pay the penalty and have 30 days to do so. “We appreciate the co-operation we received during our investigations,” CRTC chief compliance officer Andrea Rosen said in a statement. “We expect political party associations and candidates who are running for office to put appropriate safeguards in place to ensure compliance with the Unsolicited Telecommunications Rules in future campaigns.” Fred DeLorey, a Conservative party spokesman, said the fine would be paid Wednesday. “We appreciate that the CRTC is clarifying rules for all federal political parties and applying them across the board,” he said in a statement. “We co-operated fully with the CRTC when this matter was brought to our attention by meeting with them and providing all documents they requested. “We will be paying the fine today and we will be seeking the CRTC’s assistance in ensuring that our compliance program is appropriate and comprehensive to ensure we completely comply with the rules in the future.”

Last week, Wildrose said it paid a $90,000 penalty imposed by federal regulators for violating automated phone call rules in 2011, as well as before, during and after the April 2012 provincial election. However, the other fines came as a surprise. The Conservative party was fined for a robocall campaign in Saskatchewan between Jan. 31 and Feb. 1 related to proposed changes to riding boundaries. People were not told the calls were being made on behalf of the Conservatives, nor was a mailing address provided, the regulator said. The New Democrats were fined $40,000 for robocalls made between Jan. 11 and Jan. 20, 2012, in the Quebec electoral district of St-MauriceChamplain, after MP Lise St-Denis defected to the Liberals. As with the Conservative calls, the NDP did not identify itself as being behind the calls or include a mailing address or telephone number. The NDP admitted that it did not identify itself during the calls. RackNine was fined $60,000 for 15 robocall campaigns it conducted for “a number of clients” between March 2011 and Feb. 1, 2013.

RackNine was caught up in the socalled robocalls affair, in which a shadowy operative known only as Pierre Poutine used the company to make thousands of calls on

election day directing voters in Guelph, Ont., to the wrong polling stations. The company has denied having anything to do with the fraudulent calls.

B.C.’s gas plan is a short-sighted pipe dream

.C. appears to be pinning its economic hopes on natural gas – much of it obtained by hydraulic fracturing (fracking). While the world should be turning from fossil fuels to cleaner energy and conservation, we’re poised to dig ourselves deeper into the climate-altering carbon hole. Taking a cue from the liquidation-sale policies of the Alberta and federal governments, B.C.’s leaders want to get fossil fuels out of the ground, piped to the coast, liquefied and shipped to Asia or wherever they can find buyers, as quickly as possible. It’s a short-sighted plan based on outmoded thinking. In the long run, it’s not good for the economy or the environment. Whether politicians believe fossil fuel supplies are endless or can only see as far as the next election, they’re selling out our future and leaving a shattered legacy for our kids and grandkids. To start, natural gas is not the clean-energy solution it’s touted to be. According

to the Pembina Institute, if only five of 12 proposed liquefied natural gas terminals were built on the B.C. coast, they could spew 63-million tonnes of carbon a year into the atmosphere – exceeding the amount now produced by the Alberta oil sands and equal to all of B.C.’s greenhouse gas emissions in 2010. Discharges of particulate matter and volatile organic compounds would also be significant new sources of pollution. Liquefying the gas for export, which requires enormous amounts of energy, isn’t the only source of greenhouse gases. Leaks – or what the industry refers to as “fugitive emissions” – during drilling, extraction and transport are also concerns. Although the B.C. Environment Ministry claims just 0.3 to 0.4 per cent of gas escapes into the atmosphere, independent studies say it’s likely many times that amount. According to an article in Nature, scientists from the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the University of Colorado in

Boulder found leaks of methane – a greenhouse gas 20 times more potent than carbon dioxide – amounted to between 4 and 9 per cent of total production at two gas fields in the U.S. Even the economic benefits of the province’s LNG plans are suspect. Many analysts expect price corrections, and U.K. LNG expert Peter Hughes told the CBC the perceived windfall is “wishful thinking” because B.C. will have to compete with producers in places like Qatar, East Africa and Australia. Most of the money wouldn’t even stay in B.C., as many gas companies are from other provinces and countries. As for jobs, natural

gas extraction, transport and production create relatively few compared to almost every other economic sector – including tourism, science and technology, healthcare, education and small business. On top of that, fracking – shooting water, sand and chemicals at high pressure into the ground to shatter shale and release natural gas – has many other environmental consequences. It requires massive amounts of water, contaminates drinking water, damages habitat and ecosystems – even causes small earthquakes! As well as seeing natural gas as an economic panacea, some argue it could be a “bridging fuel” – something cleaner than oil or coal to use while we make the transition to renewable energy. But it’s a hazard-strewn bridge, and subsidizing and investing in natural gas extraction and infrastructure without any real commitment to wean us off oil, coal and gas will only keep us on the fossil fuel road and discourage investment in clean energy and conservation.

The industry also relies on taxpayers’ money to subsidize it, through tax and royalty credits, and to provide water, roads and the massive amounts of energy required to liquefy the gas, perhaps from a new Site C dam on the Peace River. And fugitive emissions from gas operations are exempt from the carbon tax. If we are really “bridging” to reduce fossil fuels, why are we subsidizing companies for their carbon costs? It’s time to invest our money and human resources in long-term, innovative ideas that will create good, lasting jobs, and ensure that we and our children and grandchildren continue to enjoy healthy and prosperous lives and that our spectacular “supernatural” environment is protected. We have abundant renewable resources and opportunities to conserve energy and lead the way in developing clean energy. It’s time to move forward.

Wal-Mart rally supports factory workers Over 1,300 people, mostly female garment workers, have been killed in the collapse of a building in Bangladesh which housed factories making clothes for Primark, Matalan, Mango, Bonmarche and other major brands. Over 2,000 more individuals have been injured in one of the worst industrial disasters of recent times. Wal-Mart denies having any authorized production at the Rana Plaza factory, but one of the Rana Plaza factories, Ether Tex, listed WalMart as a customer on its website. The Rana Plaza collapse follows a fire at the Tazreen Fashion factory on the outskirts of Dhaka that killed 112 people in November, further compounding concerns about worker safety and low wages in Bangladesh. (www.guardian. co.uk) After the November fire brands like Wal-Mart refused to sign a new union-proposed safety plan, which would have introduced more rigorous safety inspections, saying it was “not financially feasible.” www.

theatlantic.com Wal-Mart also refused to compensate victims and their families, even though it was apparently the Tazreen factory’s largest buyer. www. demoncracynow.org After the recent disaster in the Rana Plaza factory, the Accord on Fire and Building Safety in Bangladesh was signed by the world’s leading clothing brands, but Wal-Mart refuses to sign the agreement, stating that the agreement, “introduces requirements, including governance and dispute resolution mechanisms, on supply chain matters that are [should be] left to retailers, suppliers and government, and are unnecessary to achieve fire and safety goals.” (www.walmart.com) Not only will Wal-Mart not sign the Fire and Building Safety agreement, they also have attempted to undermine this vital initiative. But it is not too late for Wal-Mart to join this agreement! Let’s put pressure on Wal-Mart to do the right thing! Wal-Mart, and other large corporations, makes huge prof-

its off the backs of workers in factories like these. Bangladesh factories are used by major corporations because the people there are paid only $.14 - $.25 an hour! These workers don’t make a livable wage working seven days a week, and certainly can’t afford one day a week off to spend with their families! It is time to hold major Corporations like WalMart responsibility for their actions. Let’s work to ensure justice for workers! Please take action now and call on Wal-Mart to sign the Bangladesh Fire and Building Safety Agreement to prevent the future deaths of garment workers. It is such a simple action which would save so many lives. Let Wal-Mart know we are willing to pay the $.20 a garment to ensure these disasters do not continue. Your support is vital. Please stand for justice on June 1st – thank you! We plan to picket in Nelson June 1, 11 a.m. until 1 p.m. We plan to picket in Trail June 1 from 3 p.m. until 5 p.m. Hope Kelly Castlegar

SNC giving Canada a black eye An editorial from the Winnipeg Free Press Canada is sporting a black eye these days in international construction circles on account of SNC-Lavalin’s reputation for bribing public officials. The deeper the police dig into the engineering and construction firm’s records, the more signs they are finding of slipshod financial management. The state of SNC’s reputation was crystallized in midApril when the World Bank, the Washington, D.C.-based agency that finances large-scale projects in developing countries, banned the firm from its projects for the next 10 years. The ban was the result of a negotiation in which SNC agreed not to contest charges it had attempted to bribe public officials in Bangladesh and Cambodia. Police are also investigating the firm’s payments to public officials in Libya and Montreal. SNC appointed a new chief executive officer, Andrew Card, and a new board chairman, Ian Bourne, to clean up the firm’s act. They have created a new compliance department to stop the executives from offering bribes and robbing the company. If the firm can no longer win contracts through corruption, it may have to compete on price and skill -- and there is no telling how it will perform in that context. The company’s public discourse these days is all about

how it has reformed itself and put the old scandals behind it. But the World Bank’s 10-year ban expresses legitimate skepticism about how quickly this leopard can change its spots. SNC is a huge organization, reporting $8 billion of gross revenue in 2012. The corruption charges the firm is not contesting involve conduct of senior executives. It is reasonable to suppose that their conduct, continuing over many years, reflected to some extent the wishes of their masters and the culture of the organization. Card and Bourne face the daunting task of changing that organizational culture and teaching all their people a new way of making money for the shareholders. All Canadians should wish them well. SNC has been a huge, proud Canadian presence in the hydro-electric stations, the highways, the power transmission systems, the bridges, the complex construction sites of the world. It has given this country a capacity to manage and complete ambitious undertakings, both for the benefit of the professionals who do the work and for the users. Canada will be the poorer if SNC proves unable to compete and has to curtail its activities. Canadian governments may then have to call in firms from other countries to manage their most difficult projects. Information about the skulduggery at SNC is coming out

in dribs and drabs as the Royal Canadian Mounted Police sift through the records and interview witnesses. Most recently, the RCMP won a Quebec court order freezing some Montreal houses and condominiums on the basis that they appear to be proceeds of crime. The police theory is the SNC executives who were paying the bribes overseas skimmed some of it off for themselves and invested the proceeds in real estate. The firm’s financial records are so obscure it is hard to follow the trail. It is also hard to tell how much the top management knew about the bribery and diversion of funds that was apparently being carried out under their noses. For the benefit of Canadian business, the full story of SNC and how it went off the rails needs to be told. In the tradition of Canadian criminal prosecutions, it is possible a few people will plead guilty to subordinate matters such as tax evasion so that there will never be a criminal trial or a public airing of the prosecution’s case and the defence answer. That result would leave Canadians guessing who did what to whom and who paid for it and would pave the way for another great Canadian institution to blunder into a similar ethical morass. The greatest public good will be served by the greatest public disclosure of the SNC story.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS MILAN, Italy Franca Rame, an Italian actress and wife of Nobel laureate Dario Fo, died Wednesday at the age of 84 after a long illness. Rame’s death was marked with a moment of silence in Parliament, where she served as a senator from 2006 to 2008, and President Giorgio Napolitano praised

her “passionate civic engagement.” Born into a theatrical family, Rame was a stage and film actress who married the actor and playwright Fo in 1954 in Milan’s St. Ambrose Cathedral. The couple founded theatre companies that thrived on political satire, winning acclaim from progressive audiences and critics, but also upset-

ting the powerful. In the 1970s she began writing plays herself, including “The Rape,” about her experience being brutalized in 1973 by far-right extremists. In 1980, Rame and Fo were refused entry visas to the United States because of their support for left-wing activities in Italy. Then, in 1984, the U.S. government relented and allowed the couple

to visit and see the New York production of “Accidental Death of an Anarchist.” The play, Fo’s most internationally known, is a work of fiction based on reallife events involving the suspicious death of an anarchist who fell from the window of the Milan police station. Fo dedicated his 1997 Nobel Prize for Literature to Rame.

The

Canadians more likely to turn off cellphones

THE CANADIAN PRESS A global survey suggests that two-thirds of cellphone users around the world can’t bring themselves to turn off their devices, but Canadians are a little more willing to be unplugged. Surveys conducted in 24 countries by Ipsos found that 67

per cent of cellphone users said they never or rarely shut down their phone. Among the Canadians polled, 55 per cent said they never or rarely turn off their phone, which was tied with Saudi Arabia for lowest among the surveyed countries. On the flipside,

84 per cent of the Russians polled and 80 per cent of Chinese users said they were never or rarely unconnected. Canadians also stood out for being the most likely to respond “a lot of the time”

when asked how often they turned off their phone – about 20 per cent. Canadian cellphone users aged 50 to 64 were the most likely to say they turned theirs off “a lot of the time” (32 per cent).

In the Intermediate division, Montrose Service took top spot with Tyler Ghirardosi, Devin Ghirardosi, Owen Titus, Ross St. Jean, and Matt Yorston rounding out an impressive line up. The Junior division’s

Kootenay Ice out of Fruitvale hoisted the championship hardware led by Josh Mason, Logan Profili, Austin McKenzie, Nick Francis, and Cooper Ross. The May Days Fun Run saw Eden Kormendy win the 5-kilometre event, while Peter Heard captured top spot in the 10-K; and in the May Days Bocce tournament, the mother and daughter team of Debbie and Crissy Nelson of Fruitvale triumphed over the competition.

GOLDEN BIG HORNS

Rangers coach Tortorella turfed

The U15 Bighorns won gold at the Terry Walgren Soccer tournament in Nelson last week. See story page 10. Back Row: Nick Fantin, Malcom Macleod, Tristan Jinjoe, Blake Sidoni, Eli Voykin, Quentin Lavorato, Middle Row: Coach Neil Moon, Dennis Grinblats, Mason Todevic, Sean Hogarth, Bryden Tache, Mike Moon, Mathew Liszt, Kevin Nutini, Asst Coach Ken Nutini, Front Row: Rowen Stevens, Devon Dunkley, Mike Isernia, Sawyer Murdoch, Jordan Kneirt, Missing: Manager Dominic Isernia.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK - John Tortorella was defiant in stating that the New York Rangers didn’t take a step back when they were knocked out of the Stanley Cup playoffs in the second round. General manager Glen Sather thought otherwise and fired the combative coach on Wednesday. The fiery Tortorella was let go four days after the Rangers’ season ended with a Game 5 loss at Boston to the Bruins. New York had reached the Eastern Conference finals last year and was considered to be a championship contender in this lockout-shortened season. “I came up with the decision that I really needed to do something to improve our team going forward,” Sather said during a conference call. “Every coach has a shelf life. I’ve told every guy that I’ve hired that at some point in time this is going to change. “Our goal is to win the Stanley Cup and we didn’t achieve that goal this year. I had to make a decision, so I did.” Tortorella was unexpectedly dismissed with one year left on his contract. In 319 regular-

season games with New York, including a fourgame run at the end of the 1999-2000 season, Tortorella went 171-118-1-29. He was 19-25 in the post-season, and reached the playoffs in four of five seasons after taking over as coach in February 2009. Tortorella, hired to replace former Trail Junior Smokies coach Tom Renney with 21 games remaining in the 2008-09 season, achieved some success with the Rangers but couldn’t match the Stanley Cup title he earned in 2004 with the Tampa Bay Lightning. Sather said Tortorella’s contract status didn’t factor into the decision. “It wasn’t one thing and I am certainly not going to speculate or start to criticize what happened with Torts and give you a lot of reasons why we decided to do this,” Sather said. “After the analytical work that we do every year at the end of the season, trying to decide how we’re going to improve the team and how we’re going to move forward, this is a decision I made.” Sather didn’t name an immediate replacement, but hopes to have a new coach in place by the June 30 NHL draft in Newark, N.J.

Exercise helps alleviate stress and anxiety

ortisol is a naturally occurring hormone produced by the adrenal glands, and is released during times of stress to help the body respond to the stress (think fight or flight), and is also used as an anti-inflammatory agent in local corticosteriod injections to treat persistent injuries, reducing the redness, swelling, and pain at the injury. U n f o r t u n a t e l y, when used too often or for a prolonged period of time, it can have negative side effects including thinning of the skin, easy bruising, weight gain, puffiness of the face, acne (steroid acne), elevation of blood pressure, cataract formation, and thinning of the bones (osteoporosis),

to name a few. During a “Fight or Flight”stress, your hypothalamus sends a signal to your adrenal glands to release adrenaline and cortisol. Normally, these elevated hormone levels return to normal after the threat or stress has passed. But in our modern society, many people suffer from more than their share of stress (physical and mental), which leads to anxiety. Without a form of exercise, cortisol and other stress hormones build up in the body, resulting in an immunosuppressive effect, making you more susceptible to illness or infection, raising blood pressure and increasing the risk of heart disease,

as well as raising your blood sugar level contributing to diabetes. Cortisol is also catabolic, meaning that it breaks down your muscles and your system in general. To top it all off, chronic high levels of cortisol can cause weight gain, commonly showing up on the face, shoulder blades and back of neck, and around the abdomen often accompanied by reddish-purple streaks

(striae) that look like stretch marks. Although high levels of cortisol are a contributing factor to storage of abdominal fat, too much food and not enough exercise is really what makes us fat. Stress however may lead to an increased appetite and cravings, and high levels of cortisol contribute further to store fat around the waist. So what can we do about cortisol? Exercise! Exercise is a means to release all those stored up stress hormones from the body that would otherwise continue to build up day after day. Weight training in particular speeds this process and also increases human growth hormone, which helps to block

the effects of cortisol. Exercise increases the brain’s output of serotonin and dopamine, which contribute immensely to reducing stress and anxiety, and help you to feel good. The bottom line is exercise rids the body of stress hormones, reducing anxiety, and keeps you fit and healthy.

Jumbo fight far from over BY K. HILDEBRAND Nelson Star

As Jumbo Glacier Resort developers get a green light to build lifts and a lodge at the resort site, the fight against the controversial development is forging ahead despite disappointment. The permit allowing construction to proceed on ski lifts and a lodge of up to 150 rooms was approved by Jumbo mayor Greg Deck and the resort municipality’s council last week — the governing body which the West Kootenay EcoSociety executive director David Reid

Though building can now go ahead, Reid doubts anything will get done this summer because the application didn’t have a proponent. “It wasn’t that there was someone out there saying ‘I’ve got a $100 million I want to build a backcountry lodge on Farnham Glacier, can I get some zoning for that please?’” said Reid. “It was someone on city council who said ‘why don’t we get this thing started and open the door in case someone comes along?’” Reid is confident in the strength of their case and courts overturn the municipality, the zoning would be meaningless.

It doesn’t change the fact that there are two lawsuits in the courts right now challenging the development agreement and the municipality. It doesn’t change the fact that there are people willing to put themselves on the line to keep this resort from happening.” The EcoSociety’s aim is to challenge the appointment of a governing body without

Show respect for girlfriend, ‘no’ means ‘no’ Mailbox

Marcy Sugar & Kathy Mitchell

anything you do after Donna says “no” could be considered assault or even attempted rape. She is entitled to defend herself. She could call the police. Show some respect for your girlfriend, and stop kissing her when she asks you to stop. You sound too immature to get married. Dear Annie: I am a 32-year-old professional woman and a newlywed. I have been best friends with “Martha” since the first grade, although we began to drift apart after college. But we always talked about our future weddings and vowed to attend each other’s. Meanwhile, I moved

ally runs into Martha’s mother. She has never mentioned my marriage. I am terribly hurt. It seems clear that Martha doesn’t care about me or want to continue our friendship. I am trying to put this behind me, but I am puzzled that neither she nor her family had the common courtesy to send a note of congratulations. I am thinking of “unfriending” her on Facebook. -- Raised with Manners Dear Manners: Martha was remiss not to send a card of congratulations. But when friends go in different directions -- figuratively as well as physically -- the closeness tends to fade. It doesn’t mean Martha no longer cares, only that the friendship has become a casual interest. Facebook is actually perfect for that. You can keep track of each other without having to invest any genuine effort. Dear Annie: I believe you missed the boat

with your answer to “Irritated by Lack of Thoughtfulness,” who said a woman carried on a cellphone conversation during a funeral. You said it was impolite, but added that the phone could be turned on “mute” or “vibrate” and emergencies han-

dled out of earshot. We have lost all sensitivity to others. At funerals, weddings and church services, phones should be left at home or in the car. If something is so important that one must stay connected, one should not attend the function.

Not so long ago, cellphones didn’t exist, and we managed to survive. -- Litchfield, Maine Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

to the East Coast, and Martha moved to the West Coast. We stayed in touch and occasionally saw each other in our hometown. I was not asked to be a bridesmaid at Martha’s wedding, but I traveled to California with my fiance to attend and also went to her bridal shower in our hometown. Very few others did because of the cost and the distance. Her parents told me they were thrilled that I was there. About 10 months after Martha’s wedding, I married on the East Coast. Of course, Martha was invited, but she RSVP’d that she could not attend. She gave no reason. My first anniversary is approaching, and I have yet to hear any words of congratulations from my “best friend” -- no card or gift or even a phone call. I also haven’t heard anything from her parents. Back in my hometown, my mother occasion-

Dear Annie: I am in my 20s and am engaged to a beautiful girl. Our religion prohibits sex before marriage. But when “Donna” tells me to stop kissing her, I persist. I don’t see why not. It’s just kissing. Donna says she has not been firm enough with me and when she says no, she means no. Yesterday, I was sitting next to Donna and started kissing her on the lips. She said no, and when I didn’t stop, she slapped my face. It felt like I had been stung by a bee. Donna told me she definitely had to slap me. My cousin said that in a dating situation, the woman sets the rules, and it is her prerogative to slap a man’s face if she feels he has gone too far. Do you agree? I don’t think she had to slap me. -- John Dear John: It’s hard to believe you are living in this century. While we don’t recommend that women go around slapping men,

YourByhoroscope Francis Drake For Friday, May 31, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) By working behind the scenes, you can make positive changes and clean up something, perhaps related to shared property, taxes or inheritances. People with influence will listen to you. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Discussions with an older female or someone in a position of authority might cause you to rethink your ideas about politics or religion. You might see things in a new light. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Give serious thought to your life’s direction. Specifically, take a realistic look at what support from others you can count on, or not. This could be a deciding factor. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Long-range travel plans look doable today. However, someone close to you might

want you to make changes. No worries -- these changes likely will be for the better. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You might look with new eyes on an arrangement regarding shared property or anything you own jointly with others. Now you see a better way to do things. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Sit down with someone close to you and make future plans, especially about dealing with children, or perhaps how to improve vacation plans. Look at all angles today. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You can introduce improvements at work today, and others will agree with you. You might even extend your ideas to your own home life. Why not? SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) New romance might begin for some of you today. If so, it will be powerful and quite

possibly with someone who is older or more established. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) You’re in the mood to make sweeping improvements at home. You want to get rid of what is no longer relevant or necessary. Out with the old, in with the new! CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Sit down with someone to discuss long-range plans

for the future. These plans might affect your closest relationships or even your appearance and how you dress. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Be on the lookout for a new job or way to earn money on the side. Others might see new uses and applications for something they already own. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20)

You might get advice from someone older and more experienced today. If so, truly listen. Someone in a group, someone powerful, might say something that can help you in the future.
