A $3 million fundraising goal for local service hub The Red Cross is celebrating Emergency Preparedness Week in style by launching a $3-million campaign to make Kelowna a hub for its Southern Interior operations.

The organization has been in its Adams Road facility since 2011, but is now expanding the services and capacity to create

the B.C. Southern Interior Support and Disaster Operations Centre on the site. As one of just 13 provincial hubs, it is hoped the Red Cross will double its volunteer base in the region and significantly expand services.

“Kelowna is amazing. I was so impressed with Kelowna and the way these communities came together and the way they were supporting people,” said Kimberley Nemrava, dir-

ector Canadian Red Cross Society BC & Yukon, who worked among the disaster response team during the 2003 wildfires.

That supportive nature has already seen $1.5 million in donations offered to the campaign by major contributors. With campaign chairwoman Anna Hunt-Binkley, who has retired from a long run as school trustee, and honorary chairwoman and former mayor Sharon Shep-

Shepherd and Hunt-Binkley told a crowd gathered for an announcement Wednesday they both have intimate connections to the Red Cross.

Shepherd’s mother-in-law, Norma Shepherd, went overseas to volunteer for the organization in the Second World War

A 40-year-old Kelowna woman was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries after she hit a pickup truck at an intersection Wednesday morning.

The Kelowna RCMP received a report a cyclist was down and injured at the corner of Cook Road and Gordon Drive at 6:30 a.m. Thursday.

A 33-year-old Kelowna man driving a black Ford Ranger was eastbound on Cook Road attempting to turn right onto Gordon Drive when he turned into the woman who was riding southbound along Gordon. The driver apparently did not see the cyclist and, when he proceeded into the turn, the woman hit the front driver’s side of the vehicle.

The cyclist was taken to hospital with undisclosed, non-life threatening injuries.

Glare from the sun may have been a factor in the crash, police say, though the investigation is ongoing. No charges have been laid.

Anyone with any information is asked to call the Kelowna RCMP Const. Carignan at 250-7623300 or call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-847 or text to CRIMES (274637) ktown.

Mayor Dix brings message to downtown Kelowna is for Liberals ▼ ELECTION

AlistairWaters ASSISTANT EDITOR

B.C. NDP leader Adrian Dix wants to increase co-op education spaces to support local businesses, expand skills training opportunities and promote job creation.

Speaking in downtown Kelowna Wednesday, Dix said an NDP government would spend $13 million over two years to do it.

“A B.C. NDP government will invest $13 million to expand co-op positions for B.C. students,” said Dix. “Over two years, this will help provide an estimated 6,500 young people with the skills necessary for the jobs of tomorrow and address the growing skills shortage in our economy.

Critical of the Liberal government for what he called a “misleading” $17-million advertising campaign that said it was investing in skills training while actually cutting funding for both training and post-secondary education, Dix said his plan will expand the B.C. training tax credit to target small- and medium-sized businesses.

It will include a new wage-subsidy program for B.C. non-profits that hire co-op students, similar to the federal Canada Summer Jobs program.

“Over the past two years, hundreds of business people have told

me they cannot find the skilled workers they need to take advantage of opportunities to grow and prosper,” said Dix, while standing at the corner of Bernard Avenue and Pandosy Street.

The announcement came during the modern day equivalent of a whistle-stop appearance here while on his way by bus to Vernon from Summerland.

“We have to address this challenge or we will end up with jobs without people and people without jobs, increasing the already unacceptable levels of inequality in B.C.” The NDP says students at UBC Okanagan and Okanagan College, along with 16 other colleges, universities and institutes with co-op education programs, will be eligible to participate in the program.

Last year, more than 10,000 students completed paid, four-month coop terms as part of their post-secondary education.

Dix said co-ops are an effective way to give students practical on-the-job experience that will improve their chances of finding work after graduation when compared to those without co-op experience.

Co-op programs also benefit employers by providing access to talent and a reliable way to meet short-term staffing needs. The NDP program would begin in the

ALISTAIR WATERS

NDP leader Adrian Dix was out pressing the flesh Wednesday as his campaign trail brought him back to downtown Kelowna to drum up support for his party and the local NDP candidates. summer of 2014, with expenditures of $5 million in 2014-15 and $8 million in 2015-16.

While speaking here, Dix repeatedly accused the Liberals of misleading the public on a host of issues, including a plan to woo ethnic voters, the B.C. Rail deal, the HST, balancing the provincial budget, reducing government spending and even healthcare, an area where this region has received close to $1 billion in capital funding in recent years.

But, he said, unlike him, the Liberals refuse to take responsibility and are

“brazen” in their denials they have done anything wrong.

“I take responsibility,” he said in reference to the controversy that has dogged him since 1999 when, as former NDP premier Glen Clark’s chief of staff, Dix was fired for back-dating a memo to protect his boss from conflict-of-interest charges.

Dix’s actions in 1999 have become a cornerstone of attack ads by the Liberals.

But he called those ads misleading because he has taken responsibility for what he did and has said it was wrong.

The NDP leader blasted the Liberals for the “continuing smear campaign” against him in Liberal television, radio and internet advertisements.

“So I have a suggestion for voters,” said Dix. “Every time you see the premier (Liberal leader Christy Clark) or the Liberal Party put out another misleading smear on TV, say, ‘Not this time.’”

It was a phrase he used over and over again in his address to pump up the small crowd of supporters and media that gathered around him on the sidewalk.

While he complained

about the negative advertising, Dix, however, could not resist a dig of his own at Clark and her recent driving troubles. “(The Liberals) have driven through every fourway stop to mislead,” he said, alluding to Clark admitting recently running a red light in Vancouver with her 11-year-old son and a Vancouver Sun reporter in the car in the early hours of the morning while taking her son to hockey practice.

Clark has publicly said what she did was wrong.

Despite that, Dix’s reference drew a cheer from the crowd.

▼ MINORITY GOVERNMENT

Conservatives now eyeing holding balance of power Alistair Waters ASSISTANT EDITOR

B.C. Conservative leader John Cummins, whose party has slumped in recent public opinion polls, appears to have given up on his belief that his

party can form the next provincial government.

Instead, he said Tuesday, he would like to see a minority government with his party holding the balance of power.

“Realistically, we are looking at holding the balance of

power in this election,” said Cummins during a stop in Kelowna to announce B.C. Conservatives wanting to open beer and wine sales to grocery and convenience stores across B.C. He said while the Conservatives are not running candi-

dates in 20 of B.C.’s 85 ridings, the party does have pockets of strength, including here in the Okanagan, in the Fraser Valley, northern B.C. and central and northern Vancouver Island.

He said he believes it would be in the best interests of British

Columbians to elect a minority government and not give either the Liberals or the NDP a majority.

Describing the Liberals and See Power A4

B.C. NDP leader Adrian Dix says he’s not surprised to hear the three Liberal candidates in Kelowna are using the city’s mayor, Walter Gray, in radio advertisements supporting them.

Dix said Gray’s politics are no secret and he has no problem with the mayor wading into the political arena during a provincial election.

“He’s been a longtime Liberal supporter,” said DIx of Gray. “I’m not surprised.”

But he added everyone is free to support any candidate in this election that they want to support and he’s glad to see people participating.

Gray has had close ties to provincial Liberal candidates and MLAs in the past.

Two weeks ago, when Liberal leader Christy Clark spoke at a Kelowna rally for Liberal candidates, incumbent MLAs and cabinet ministers Steve Thomson, Norm Letnick and Ben Stewart, Gray and his wife Doreen were positioned in a group of supporters directly behind Clark.

In the radio ad, Gray acknowledges the “cooperation and support” of the three incumbents, calling them “community minded” MLAs. But he had said that does not mean he’s supporting the Liberal Party in the ad, just saying thanks on behalf of the community to the local Liberal trio for provincial funding that has flowed into this area and for working together on local projects.

The Gray ad is one of a series by the Liberals using well-known local people to praise the work of Thomson, Letnick and Stewart.

stores across the province to sell beer and wine, says leader John Cummins.

Cummins made the announcement in Kelowna Tuesday, standing in the Glenmore IGA grocery store with the three Central Okanagan Conservative candidates by his side—Mike McLoughlin (Kelowna-Mission), Graeme James (Kelowna-Lake Country) and Brian Guillou (Westside-Kelowna).

Cummins said British Columbians deserve more choice where it comes to where they can buy beer and wine.

That’s why he feels it’s important to increase the number of locations where those products are available for purchase.

He added the convenience of being able to buy beer and wine where one buys groceries and other food items just makes sense.

Asked for his defin-

“I don’t see the need to restrict any class of store,” he said.

Part of the reasoning for opening up sales of beer and wine in B.C.

is to take what Cummins called “special interests” out of liquor sales.

He described the government as a special interest group when it comes to liquor sales.

Asked about the potential loss of revenue to the province by such a move, Cummins said the

provincial Liquor Distribution Branch would still play a part because it would handle the distribution of beer and wine to the stores, just as it now does for provincial liquor stores and existing beer and wine stores.

Cummins: Liberals are shifting to the left Power from A3 NDP as similar in many ways such as both wanting to increase personal and business taxes, Cummins said his is the only party that would balance the budget and reduce spending.

Liberal leader Christy Clark has run her campaign saying her party has already balanced the B.C. budget and reduced spending and will eradicate B.C.’s debt.

Cummins used the recent en-

dorsement of Clark and the B.C. Liberals by former NDP cabinet minister Gordon Wilson as an example of how far to the left he believes the Liberals have shifted under Clark.

Wilson, who led the B.C. Liberals to Opposition status in 1991, lost the leadership of that party to Gordon Campbell in 1993 after it was revealed he was having an extramarital affair with then Okanagan-Lake Country Liberal MLA Judi Tyabji. Wilson and Tyabji quit

the party to form the Progressive Democratic Alliance and he was re-elected in 1996.

In 1999, he crossed the floor to join the NDP government of Premier Glen Clark and was named aboriginal affairs minister.

He was later appointed finance minister and even flirted with a run for leadership of the NDP in 2000.

Cummins said if Wilson is now supporting Clark, it shows how close to the NDP the Liberals have moved.

▼ HOMELESSYOUTH FORUM

Community centre hosts a big turnout Wade Paterson STAFF REPORTER

There are West Kelowna youth sleeping on friends’ couches, staying in Kelowna shelters and even living in tents.

It’s an issue that the RCMP, local schools and various social organizations have been aware of and trying to improve for quite some time; however, they’re now getting the support of several community members.

On Tuesday evening more than 120 residents attended No Place to Call Home: A public forum regarding homeless youth in West Kelowna.

“In the position I’m in now, and in the summer months that I’m working with general duty members, I’ve certainly become aware of the problem firsthand,” said Sherri Lund, West Kelowna RCMP school liaison officer.

“I think it’s great we’re taking time to recognize these issues of youth homelessness in our community.”

Several Mount Boucherie Senior Secondary students gave pres-

WADE PATERSON/CAPITAL NEWS

MOUNT Boucherie Senior Secondary students present information regarding the situation of homeless youth in West Kelowna. entations, which featured interviews of students and teachers, as well as youth who have been in a homeless situation themselves.

During one video presentation, a girl whose name was kept anonymous for privacy reasons, explained what led to her becoming temporarily homeless.

“Things just got really bad with my parents.

We were fighting so much and it just got to the point where, one morning, my dad just put a bunch of my

stuff in a suitcase, threw it outside and said, ‘Get out.’”

Another group of students presented results from a survey they conducted, which indicated one-third of Mount Boucherie students had spent at least three consecutive nights outside of their home due to arguments or other family issues.

Irene Maier, department head of student leadership at Mount Boucherie explained that statistic. “Obviously, as

teen/parent conflict goes, there is a lot of short-term couch surfing that happens at different points of time with families,” said Maier.

“We certainly plan to do a more in-depth kind of survey because we know many (students) are genuinely homeless over long periods of time.”

She added she has become aware of some students who are living in abusive situations and have chosen to leave their houses.

A recurring theme throughout the various Mount Boucherie student presentations was that West Kelowna is in need of a youth shelter so homeless youth can have a safe place to stay while keeping connected with their community.

Later in the forum, a panel representing the Ministry of Children and Family Development, the Okanagan Boys and Girls Club, the Canadian Mental Health Association, NOW Canada and Kelowna Gospel Mission shared information regarding available services.

Kristy Butterworth, of the Boys and Girls Club Westside youth centre, said there are several reasons why it’s important to help youth in homeless situations.

“Young people who successfully transition into adulthood become productive members of their community who pay taxes,” said Butterworth.

Concerned citizens are invited to meet May 16, 10 a.m., at Westbank United Church to discuss next steps in dealing with the issue. wpaterson@kelownacapnews.com

▼ PAUL DUFFIELD

Ice swimmer invited to swim across Bering Strait Five months ago, West Kelowna’s Paul Duffield had little more than a dream of becoming an ice swimmer.

He had done some training in cold water, but seemed uncertain if he would succeed prior to his first official ice swim.

But since last December he has completed Canada’s first mile-long

ice swim, broken the ice swimming long distance world record and earned a modest amount of fame in a unique and challenging sport.

This summer he will continue to make ice swimming history when he joins 39 other cold water endurance swimmers in a relay swim across the Bering Straight.

The Bering Strait is only ice-free from June to October and is one of the only bodies of water that has not yet been conquered by swimmers. Sea temperatures in the summer average about 5 Celsius.

The team will travel from Cape Dezhnev, Russia to Cape Prince of Wales, Alaska.

The total distance the swimmers will cover is 86 km; however, with tides and currents that distance could feel more like 110 km. It will likely take over 40 hours to complete the journey.

Duffield will be the only Canadian swimmer in the group.

“I couldn’t believe it when I read the email,” said Duffield after receiving an official invitation from Andrew Chin, founding member of the International Ice Swimming Association.

“I had to read it over and over to make sure I wasn’t dreaming it. I’m thrilled to be included in a project of this international and historic importance.”

Paul Duffield Duffield said the swimmers will rotate through individual legs of 10 to 20 minutes each.

He noted the swim is being supported by the Russian government and will take place at the end of July.

PROMO poster for a new film shot last year in West Kelowna that will premiere tonight at Landmark Cinemas Xtreme 8 called A Mother’s Nightmare.

West Kelowna to premiere film Wade Paterson STAFF REPORTER

A dark, made-for-TV film about a teenage romance that turns into a psychotic episode involving accusations of heinous acts probably wouldn’t be high on the “to see” lists of every demographic in the Okanagan.

However, Sepia Films and Landmark Cinemas Xtreme 8 is optimistic Thursday’s film premiere of A Mother’s Nightmare will bring out all types of interested viewers.

The film, which was shot in West Kelowna last spring, is being premiered at 5 p.m. at Landmark Cinemas Xtreme 8 as a fundraiser for the Westside Community Food Bank.

It stars Jessica Lowndes, of 90210, Grant Gustin, of Glee, and Annabeth Gish, of SLC Punk and Double Jeopardy.

“A Mother’s Nightmare received an amazing amount of support from the Okanagan Film Commission and the community of West Kelowna,” said Andy Holmes of Sepia Films, who was an assistant for director Vic Sarin when the movie was filmed last year.

“We really wanted to give everyone who contributed to the movie a chance to see it on the big screen.”

Rick Davis, general manager of Landmark Cinemas Xtreme 8, said the premiere will be a chance for locals to spot familiar landmarks and see what was created in their backyard.

“There were many residents involved in the making of it and it gives them, and the entire community, an opportunity to see their work, as well as prominent West Kelowna locations, on the big screen,” said Davis.

“It made perfect sense to make admission a donation to the Westside Community Food Bank—we were thrilled to find out that the date (that) was chosen for the screening fell within Hunger Awareness Week.”

Sepia Films is in the process of producing A Sister’s Nightmare, which will begin shooting in the Okanagan May 27.

Holmes describes the movie as “a sequel of sorts.” It features Kelly Rutherford of Melrose Place and Gossip Girl as the lead role.

Tickets for the screening of A Mother’s Nightmare are available on a first-come first-serve basis. They can be picked up for a non-perishable food item or cash donation to the Westside Community Food Bank at Landmark Cinemas Xtreme 8, prior to the 5 p.m. screening (subject to availability).The film, which aired in the United States on Oct. 30, 2012, is rated PG. wpaterson@kelownacapnews.com

Liberal says NDP will endanger B.C.’s credit rating Alistair Waters ASSISTANT EDITOR

It’s not on par with Joe Namath’s famous guarantee that his underdog New York Jets would win the 1969 Super Bowl, or Mark Messier’s guarantee that his New York Rangers would win game seven of the 1994 Stanley Cup final, but the B.C. election has its first “guarantee.”

Finance Minister Mike de Jong, boldly said in Kelowna Wednesday that if the NDP wins the May 14 provincial election, forms the government and implements the platform it has presented

in this campaign, B.C. will have its AAA credit rating downgraded “within six months.

“I guarantee it,” said de Jong. “You can print that.”

The Liberal incumbent in the Fraser Valley riding of Abbotsford West was in Kelowna to support local candidates and cabinet colleagues Norm Letnick and Steve Thomson.

He accused the NDP of planning to spend billions of dollars the province doesn’t have, hike taxes on individuals and businesses and increase the province’s debt in a similar way to the last

NDP government in the late 1990s.

“In this campaign, we have a clear choice between (NDP leader Adrian) Dix and the NDP, which wants to spend the money, raise taxes and drive us into deficit and debt and the fiscally prudent Liberal Party that wants to control spending, tackle the debt and let the private sector create jobs,” said de Jong.

His said his answer to critics who say the B.C. budget is not balanced as the Liberals claim, is to talk to the credit rating agencies that have awarded B.C. a top AAA credit rating, higher than many

other provinces in Canada and even higher than the federal government’s rating.

He said the budget he introduced as finance minister shortly before the election was called, was reviewed by a neutral third party and found to be balanced with the exception of “a feeling that predicted natural gas revenues were a tad high.

“So we adjusted them down,” said de Jong.

He also dismissed criticism that despite campaigning on a balanced budget and debt elimination, the Liberals are saying one thing having done the other because succes-

Reaction to liquor sale promise is mixed

D D

Booze from A4 Under the Liberals, the number of beer and wine stores across the province has increased greatly in the last 10 years, a move that concerned some communities when the rules regarding how close such stores had to be from one another were relaxed.

The Liberals have made other moves to loosen up B.C. liquor laws, including allowing restaurant patrons to bring their own bottles of wine to have with a meal.

“We believe in getting

d

B.C. back to basics, and that means putting more decision-making abilities in the hands of local British Columbians,” said Cummins.

“We’ll make life more convenient and affordable for British Columbians, and help grow the economy by removing restrictions on the sale of beer and wine in convenience stores.”

The Conservatives’ announcement was welcomed by the owner of the grocery store in which Cummins spoke.

Kevin Kothlow de-

scribed B.C. liquor laws as “antiquated,” and said it’s about time the province allowed the sale of beer and wine at grocery and convenience stores.

“We are so far behind (with liquor regulations) in B.C., it’s ridiculous,” said Kothlow. “This will be a convenience for everyone.”

He said he did not anticipate any problems with the requirement that store employees see proper identification from people buying beer and wine because they already have to do that in order to

sell tobacco.

“I think it’s great,” he said of the announcement.

But not everyone may be happy.

McLoughlin said he gave Kelowna Mayor Walter Gray and a group of young entrepreneurs a heads-up about the announcement earlier in the day, saying while the young people at the meeting thought it was a great idea, Gray was much less enthusiastic.

“He was a little reluctant about it,” said McLoughlin of Gray’s reaction.

sive Liberal governments have not been successful in bringing in balanced budgets during their 12 years in power—despite legislation requiring it.

In fact, it was the Liberals who introduced balanced budget legislation in B.C. shortly after taking power in 2001.

Under the law, cabinet

ministers lose 10 per cent of their annual salary if the budget is not balanced.

The NDP, said de Jong, would repeal the balanced budget legislation, along with the penalty for ministers, which would, in effect, give all new cabinet ministers a 10 per cent pay raise. awaters@kelownacapnews.com

Don’t be unduly influenced

M

any members of the public are calling him “Flip” Wilson. And the term is quite fitting.

Former B.C. Liberal leader Gordon Wilson, who was forced out of the leader’s office almost 20 years ago, has come back to his old party. This comes after he publicly demeaned the party for years, and most particularly Gordon Campbell, who took over the leadership from him.

Wilson and his wife Judi Tyabji left the B.C. Liberals to form the Progressive Democrat-

ic Alliance. In 1996, Wilson was the only PDA candidate elected. Two years later, he dissolved his party and jumped to the NDP after being offered a cabinet position by then-premier Glen Clark. Wilson said it was his decision to come out in favour of the B.C. Liberals. He decries the NDP’s Adrian Dix for flip-flopping on the Kinder Morgan pipeline proposal, and says his attitude towards economic development projects is troubling.

Wilson says the NDP wants to spend a lot of extra money,

but is biting the hand that feeds the government’s coffers — resource development.

In the course of 20 years, Wilson has been a Liberal, a PDA, an NDP and now is backing the Liberals again. The question needs to be asked — what’s in it for Wilson? That’s something voters need to consider.

The questions Wilson raises about the NDP’s stance on resource development are good ones. Dix’s flip-flop on Kinder Morgan is very troubling, as it indicates that environmental-

ists can derail almost any major resource development projectM d by shouting loudly and pushing C the fear button. It also indicates n to the rest of Canada that B.C. a politicians are quite prepared to e close our ports to export traffic, oo based on the whims of a certain e proportion of the people who s w live here.

Voters should carefully ana- w lyze the stances of Dix, Clark, John Cummins and Jane Sterk on these issues, and not simply rush to vote a certain way because of a voice from the past.

Member of the British Columbia Press Council

Employers look for both education and work experience

E

very time people ask me what my son is up to and I reply that he is working full-time they tend to consider this good news.

Many of his friends are either unemployed, going to school, or they are what I would call under-employed; working at low paying part-time jobs.

My son’s job is probably not his future career but his wage is OK and he even gets benefits. Is he lucky?

Based on statistics he probably is.

He’s getting the experience of working full-time, which gives him the opportunity to live on his own and pay his own bills—something a lot of young people are missing out on.

Today there are millions of young adults between the ages of 15 to 24 years who are unemployed and not

in school. According to the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), if you looked at all of the first-world countries you would find 26 million unemployed young people. If you add in those from developing countries, you are looking at another 260 million youth.

To define this number on a global scale it’s important to know a few things.

There are some cultures where women do not work hence they come up as unemployed.

Another is that many young adults

SCHOOL’S IN

Jane Muskens

have contract-based jobs so they may get captured by statisticians who determine national unemployment rates.

In under-developed countries some youth work, mostly in agriculture, for their family and still get counted as

unemployed.

But youth unemployment rates are still high and there are a number of fallouts from this. In rich countries there is the social net burden. Not only is that country paying out funds (unemployment insurance and welfare) to those without jobs, it’s also losing out on this labour resource. There are

estimates coming out of Europe that the unemployed youth crisis bears an economic cost in the billions. High unemployment leads to slow economic growth.

This happens in Canada where we have an education/work mismatch— people without jobs because they don’t have the education to fill vacant positions, and employers with jobs who can’t find qualified workers.

The second fallout is the social cost. I’ve seen people in their 50s lose their jobs and never make it back into the labour market. Within about three years many lose the self-confidence it takes to go out and get a job. Some opt out of working; others look at lower paid part-time employment.

Imagine the same feeling some-

t b a G o d d t c h

Q

c c i d b c i d I o C one aged 22 gets when they have b never even had a full-time permanent a job. They don’t have the background or knowledge of what it’s like to go to work. They don’t even have the mindset to know whether or not they are capable of holding a full-time job.

As a result, they tend to opt for low-skilled, low-paid jobs that provide little job security. Unfortunately it is this pattern that leads to a life of chronic unemployment.

My son will go back to school, but he has a resume that shows he has worked for the same employer since he was 16. There is a reason why employers ask for both education and experience in today’s job market.

LETTERS

Count down to Joe Rich Mission Creek disaster To the editor: My wife and I were at the Joe Rich Community Hall on Saturday, May 4), participating in the Community Clean-up, and Mission Creek was still in its channel.

We were back at the hall Monday morning, May 6 after the first full day of hot weather (30+ C) and Mission Creek is now running fully over all of the Muddit property at the northeast corner of Mission Creek Bridge on Hwy33; still not high enough to be causing any significant damage but it will be interesting to see what it looks like after an-

other full day of sun. The weather is suppose to continue in the 30+ C range for the next few days.

The question is, will all the downed trees, the storage trailer, the car, the fuel oil tank, the demolition pile (from the damage during the last flood) and the house—let alone the septic field—be up against the bridge on Hwy 33 in the next day or two?

If that happens, what happens to the bridge, the highway, private homes just across the road?

I personally met with Norm Letnick over six months ago to discuss the specific issue and was

advised at that time that provincial emergency funding is only available when there is an active, immediate threat. Trouble is, when the emergency it active and immediate it is too dangerous for any work to be done and when it is not active and immediate there is no funding available. A Catch 22 situation—nothing can be done unless there is an emergency but nothing will be done when the emergency is on-going (too dangerous).

I suspect this situation was devised by our elected representatives so they would never have to take

actual responsibility—for anything.

Numerous other residents have pleaded for help over the past four or five or more years, to the various agencies— Regional District of the Central Okanagan, the province, the feds, even Black Mountain Irrigation District, but nobody wants to do anything because, if they do, they fear they will become responsible.

In the mean time Frank and Pat Russell, an elderly couple who have lived across the road from this site for more than 45 years, are now (for the past two years) forced to

run sump-pumps (at least two) in their basement 24/7, 365 days a year.

Because of the way the creek water has been diverted by the Muddit property fiasco, these people in their late 70s, are being forced to continuously pump out and mop up their basement.

Is anybody ever going to do anything or are we just going to wait until the highway is severely damaged and the bridge has to be replaced because it has been washed out?

made arrangements to drive Geoff.

About half way through (NDP premier candidate Adrian) Dix’s speech, a member of the leader’s tour walked past where we were standing (against the bar in the back, behind the media) and glared at me.

Immediately after making this pass he returned to stand about three feet directly in front of me, presumably to block my view of Mr. Dix. At first he was only partially obstructing my view, but it was evident that someone was giving him audio instruction (via his earpiece) and after shifting his place multiple times,

and then turning around to see exactly where I was standing, he managed to place himself directly in my view.

We’ll say four minutes after he began this activity he departed.

Maybe 10 minutes later he returned to stand about two feet directly in front of me, and after another pair of minutes he turned to demand I remove my Nuyens button, physically tapping the button in the process.

I politely obliged him and proceeded to ignore him as I had throughout until he left for the final time about two minutes later.

After the event I felt

both dumbfounded and degraded.

After sleeping on it I sent a letter outlining my experience to three local New Democrats: The president of the Kelowna-Lake Country riding association, the candidate, and a party v-p. I explained how I found this sort of bullying to be unacceptable and that I expected an apology and notice of disciplinary action taken by the party regarding the individual who harassed me, otherwise I would leave the campaign in two days.

The v-p responded to say she was too busy at the time to address my concerns.

The president of the riding association sent me a short response that suggested I apologize to the candidate for keeping company with Liberals despite their demands to the contrary.

I’ve subsequently left the campaign and to this day I’ve yet to hear any response from the leader’s tour, be it perceived justification or apology.

Coincidentally, the last time I visited the provincial legislature, last May, the New Democrats were taking the government to task for their lacklustre response to bullying. The hypocrisy is breathtaking.

NDP bullying drives volunteer from campaign To the editor: On Sunday, April 21, I attended a town hall event for the B.C. NDP in Vernon with my friend Geoff, a B.C. Liberal organizer.

At the time I was volunteering for the (NDP Mike) Nuyen’s campaign in Kelowna-Lake Country, far and away the volunteer with the most hours spent on the campaign.

Before heading down to the event I’d been asked by the candidate to stop attending events with Geoff (I had attended one other with him). In order to assuage the candidate’s concerns I agreed to his request with the exception of this last town hall event as I had already

Questions about child wellbeing for candidates foam To the editor: The Central Okanagan community has been committed to improving and enhancing children’s health from new born to age 6 through the coalition of the Community Action Toward’s Children’s Health (CATCH).

I have had the honour of being involved with CATCH prior to a Charter being developed between all levels of government,

businesses, faith community, agencies, caregivers, parents, and the general public as far back as 1999 where we promised to all work together for our children.

I believe we have the real opportunity to make our city one of the most child-friendly and healthiest places to live and visit.

We must all work together to achieve this vision.

Since early childhood

is such a crucial time for human development we have identified three election questions for the candidates who have put their names forward as MLAs for the provincial election to be held Tuesday May 14. Please use these as guidelines when attending candidate forums. All responses from those candidates who have responded on these questions can also be viewed at www.

Change for better or worse?

To the editor: Do we need a change?

Think about it.

Twelve years ago, small businesses were going under and jobs were hard to find. Our young people were moving out in big numbers. Today, businesses are moving into B.C. and investing in our province, creating

jobs.

Twelve years ago, B.C. had one of the worst credit ratings in Canada.

Today B.C.’s credit rating is AAA, one of the best in Canada.

Twelve years ago, our personal income tax was among the highest in Canada. Today our personal income tax is one of the

lowest in Canada.

Just look around. Our standard of living is better than anywhere in North America.

Do we need a change?

No. Let’s not go backwards again. Let’s go with what we’ve got and vote Liberal.

STAFF REPORTER

A ‘high streamflow advisory’ for Mission Creek has been issued and it could be upgraded to a ‘flood watch’ if the current hot weather continues, advises the head of the River Forecast Centre, Dave Campbell.

“The next few days are critical,” he said.

A flood watch warning means river levels are rising rapidly and that minor flooding in lowlying areas is possible.

The next step would be a flood watch warning, which means residents should be aware there is the potential for river banks to be ‘overtopped’ by water.

A flood warning is the next step, and that means it is imminent, explained Campbell.

In the past week the weather has gone from winter, with a dump of snow on the Coquihalla and in surrounding hills, to summer, with unseasonably high temperatures.

“It was a quick transition,” agreed Campbell, noting weather at higher elevations went from a snowstorm last week to a 24-hour snowmelt this week, affecting a snow-

pack that is nearly 30 per cent above normal in the Mission Creek watershed.

That snowpack is ‘ripening’ or changing in density as the melt begins to get underway and now it’s really into it, he said.

Tuesday/Wednesday overnight temperatures high up in that watershed stayed at 10 C while daytime temperatures were 20 C. Valley temperatures have gone above 30 C, which is more than 10 degrees above normal.

Doug Lundquist, meteorologist with Environment Canada says the forecast is for continued hot weather until Saturday or Sunday when it should cool down as a cold front moves in from the west and northwest.

There’s a slight chance of showers, but he doesn’t think there will be much rain—such as there could be if that front was moving in from the south.

No records have been broken in Kelowna for high temperatures, although it’s been close the past few days, he said.

Looking well ahead to the week of May 16 to 23, he said there’s a high probability of above average temperatures returning, but not as hot as this week’s weather, and it’s expected to be a dry

pattern.

This year’s snowpack measurements as of May 1 are well above normal on the east side of the lake, but they’ve also risen from below normal to just above normal on the west side of the lake with several dumps of snow in the past month or so.

Higher than normal inflows to Okanagan Lake are forecast this year, said Campbell.

The Central Okanagan Emergency Program warns residents in floodprone areas to prepare to protect their properties as conditions could change rapidly during spring runoff.

Bruce Smith, communications officer for the regional district said sand and sandbags have been dropped off for property owners in the Casa Loma, Green Bay and Whitworth Drive areas in West Kelowna and officials continue to monitor weather patterns and water levels of local creeks, streams and lakes.

two underpasses along the Mission Creek Greenway, at the Casorso Road bridge and on the south side of Mission Creek at the Gordon Drive Bridge.

Pedestrians and cyclists are advised to use caution crossing Casorso Road and motorists are warned to watch for greenway users who may be crossing the road in the area until the underpass is re-opened.

The abandoned Muttitt property off Highway 33 in the Joe Rich area is flooded, said Smith, but he said there are no services to the property and the property-owner refused permission for anyone to go on the property to assess the situation.

The provincial transportation ministry, when asked about concerns regarding the possibility of structures from that property being swept downstream, responded: “Ministry staff have assessed the site and do not believe there is a risk to the highway bridge if structures on the Muttitt property are swept downstream.”

Information and pamphlets on flood preparedness, including a recommended method for sandbag diking are available from both the regional district office and the City of Kelowna firehall on Enterprise Way, as well as on the Regional Emergency Operation Centre website at: www.cordemergency.ca Anyone who notices a potential problem or flooding concern in the Central Okanagan should call regional fire dispatch at 469-8577. Sandbags are available at local firehalls for property owners facing imminent danger from flooding.

People are also warned to use caution around all water bodies because water levels could rise quickly and unexpectedly. Keep pets and children well back from creek banks.

Even automated irrigation systems are not immune to wasting water Judie Steeves STAFF REPORTER

People used to water their lawns when the grass began to pale and turn yellow, but today’s lawns never get the chance to do that.

Okanagan Basin Water Board director Tom Siddon made the comment at Tuesday’s regular meeting in Kelowna in commenting on the efficiency of modern automated irrigation systems.

“I suspect automated systems are ‘wasting’ water by coming on whether they’re needed or not,” he added.

However, director Gerry Zimmermann said

he’d always understood that automatic watering systems saved water.

OBWB executive-director Anna Warwick Sears said the difficulty is that with automatic systems weather is no longer a factor in whether a lawn or garden receives water, while it played a significant role when most people watered by hand.

However, she said there are now ‘smart’ irrigation systems as well as ‘stupid’ ones. The smart ones include sensors that alert the system to how much soil moisture or rainfall there is before turning the irrigation on.

OBWB chairman Stu Wells noted that most

systems are set to run for the same length of time in April as in July, when more water is likely to be needed because it’s hotter and drier in mid-summer.

However, most people don’t know how to operate their system, and they never change the settings so they’re different for spring and fall than for the heat of summer. Instead irrigation should be scheduled to account for seasonal differences, he noted.

Most people also don’t turn off their systems during rainy periods when irrigation is not needed, he noted.

“Some education is needed,” noted Zimmer-

mann.

Director Doug Findlater said there was a 25 per cent drop in five years in domestic water use in the Westbank Irrigation District area when that utility installed meters and began charging users for the amount of water they used.

That allowed the municipality, once it took over the WID system, to drop plans for an immediate increase in upland storage, he said.

He noted that people in the large lots in Lakeview Heights didn’t like receiving $700 water bills, so they reduced their water consumption as a result.

Drive-thru breakfast fundraiser for KSS The Kelowna Secondary School’s Me to We Club’s DriveThru Breakfast will take place Friday, from 6:15 to 9 a.m., in the Rona store parking lot on Springfield Avenue.

The Me to We Club is made completely of high school students who want to make the world a better place, the students dedicating their

time towards fundraising for several local and global charity initiatives.

“We are very excited to announce that we are incredibly close to reaching our goal of building a school in Ecuador through the charity Free the Children,” said Nicole Johnston, a KSS Grade 11 student.

“Hopefully, this Drive-Thru Breakfast will let us reach our goal.

All support from the community is greatly appreciated as not only does it benefit our school in Ecuador, but it also encourages our youth volunteers to continue their lifestyles of global citizenship and social justice.

The breakfast served by the students on Friday will be by donation with a selection of bagels, scones, yogurt, coffee and juice to be served.

Clark helped workshop participants to be sensitive to the varied aromas in a glass of wine, and then how to use that in pairing it with food like cheese for the most

complementary flavours to result. Testing different combinations of food and wine can be very enlightening, particularly under professional guidance, and at the same time you can enjoy giving your taste buds some new experiences. jsteeves@kelownacapnews.com

Most wouldn’t be very positive when applied to cheese.

Sommelier Paul Clark of the Delta Grand Okanagan explains that it’s more important to smell wines than it is to taste them.

So, swirling and sniffing are actually more important than the next two wine tasting steps, sipping and spitting.

He and Henderson did a double act this week as part of a series of Spring Okanagan Wine Festival events held at the Delta Grand, pairing B.C. wines with flavours such as a variety of Canadian cheeses or a variety of chocolate desserts.

Tonight it’s Sweet and Savoury, and Saturday from 4 to 6 p.m., it’s Sinful Pairings of Chocolate and Wine. Reservations should be made through the Grand Bay Cafe in the hotel.

As Henderson pointed out, there are a surprising array of very tasty cheeses being made in Canada, from fresh and soft cheeses to semi-soft, blue and hard cheeses, with regional specialties across the country.

He advised that, as with fine wines, smelling a cheese can tell a lot about its age and character, and sometimes its origin.

Biosolid concerns voiced for watershed Judie Steeves STAFF REPORTER

West Kelowna Mayor Doug Findlater is concerned about a proposal to dump biosolids from the Westside Wastewater Treatment Plant into the municipality’s watershed.

The project is run by Sylvis Environmental Services Inc., which has been spreading the material in Bob’s Lake pit, off the Okanagan Connector, near Paradise and Island Lakes.

Instead, it is proposing to spread it in part of the Westbank First Nation’s community forest S on Mount Swite, in the Bear Creek area, as a fertilizer to increase growth rates and productivity in an area to be re-forested.

Findlater expressed his concern about the project at Tuesday’s regular meeting of the Okanagan Basin Water Board and said he would like feedback on the proposal from members of the Okanagan Water Stewardship Council, which acts as a technical advisory committee to the OBWB.

JUDIE STEEVES/CAPITA NEWS

SIGN at the current

biosolids disposal site in the Bob’s Lake pit near Paradise and Island Lakes, where material from the Westside Wastewater Treatment Plant is spread.

Technical reports on the process say biosolids have been used as an organic fertilizer for forest productivity in the Pacific Northwest for more than 40 years without any instance of forest fertilization causing detrimental effect to soil, plant or water systems through application at agronomic

rates in B.C. “The impacts of these applications have been carefully studied and are deemed to be purely beneficial from both ecological and fertilization perspectives,” according to a letter from Sylvis, received by the regional district about the proposal in early April.

However, Findlater noted it’s the company selling the process that’s doing the reporting.

OBWB water stewardship director Nelson Jatel noted he expects there will be some questions about the endocrine disruptor content in the material as well.

Director Tom Siddon agreed, saying he felt there should be more information available about the risks associated with disposing of biosolids.

The Sylvis letter said all biosolids applications will be a minimum of 30 metres from water.

Specifically, it said two sites are being considered, one that is 1,100 hectares and is up on the Pennask summit, off the Connector, and the other

14 kilometres up the Bear Lake Forest Service Road, within an area that is 10,000 hectares in total.

WFN chief Robert Louie and his council have approved the application on its community forest licence lands said the letter.

there is a requirement that above-ground foods not be picked for human consumption from the area for 18 months after application, and no belowground tubers and roots for 38 months after application. Signs would be posted to warn people to pick in the area.

Fintry invites moms to check out the annual Spring Fair Judie Steeves STAFF REPORTER

To celebrate Mother’s Day, the Friends of Fintry are organizing the annual Fintry Spring Fair Sunday with activities for everyone in the family.

The fair is an annual fund-raising event held to help support the organiz-

ation’s efforts to maintain and restore the historic buildings in the Westside Road provincial park and to restore the Manor House with items from its heyday, the early 1900s.

FOF vice-president Michael Recknell said there will be a display of fire fighting equipment as well as antique cars brought out by local car clubs.

Local musicians will play from the verandah of the Manor House and there will be a variety of booths showcasing plants, gardening information and arts and crafts.

Youngsters will be invited to play organized games on the front lawn of the Manor House and a barbecue, with celebrity chef, Lake Country Mayor James Baker, will be held

from noon to 1:30 p.m.

The fair will open at 10 a.m. and continue to 4 p.m., with admission by donation.

Tours of both the Manor House and the octagonal dairy barn will be by donation as well.

This is one of three events the FOF plan to hold this year to help raise funds to continue with restor-

ation work. Next will be the Fintry Summer Fair, celebrating B.C. Parks Day July 14, then the Fintry Fall Fair, with a trunk and tailgate sale Sept. 15.

The FOF annual general meeting is June 15 at 10 a.m. in the Manor House, and all members are welcome to attend. For details go to the website at: www.fintry.ca. jsteeves@kelownacapnews.com

Flightcraft CEO stepping aside to take on new challenges STRAIGHT FROM DEHART

Maxine DeHart

A

fter 43 years at the helm, Barry Lapointe, owner, president and CEO of Kelowna Flightcraft, is stepping aside from his dayto-day duties of running the company.

Those duties will be turned over to Tracy Medve, the new president for Kelowna Flightcraft, who will be responsible for the management and oversight of the Flight-

craft operations. Lapointe will remain active as the CEO and chairman of the board for the Flightcraft Group of Companies, but will be changing his focus to longer term strategy and a number of other products and ventures underway. Medve has held a number of progressive senior management positions in organizations such as NorCanair, Time Air, Canadian Partner, Canadian Regional Airlines, Regional 1 and most recently as president of Canadian North until she retired last December. Prior to joining Canadian North, Medve was co-founder of C.T. Aero Projects, a Calgary-based consultancy focused on

Barry Lapointe

JAMIE Beyer has opened a new business in Stewart Centre on Kirschner Road in Kelowna called The Health Shack air transport resource management with clients around the world.

She has served on many boards and was an adjudicator with the Transportation Appeal Tribunal of Canada.

After 37 years in the accounting profession and a distinguished career, Arnie Schneider, of Schneider Sample Ohlmann, 100-1449 St. Paul St., has retired. Over the years, Schneider has had a very loyal clientele, many of them having become his close friends. When I asked what he was going to do in retirement, his wife Anne answered, “Learn how to operate a vacuum.” I guess that says it all! Incidentally its Arnie’s birthday on May

13. What a great birthday present (not the vacuum). As a friend of the Schneiders for many years, I wish them all the best in retirement.

AFD Petroleum has purchased the assets and operations of Lakeland Oil in Kelowna, 350 Carion Rd., owned and operated by Ross Gilley and partner Kevin Timm.

Lakeland has been a thriving business and community supporter in the Okanagan for many years. Gilley, the senior partner at Lakeland will be staying on as a consultant through the transition phase, while Timm will remain in charge of the business as the area manager for the Okanagan.

As well, all the other team

members will stay on in their current roles. AFD will be adding a new sales team to the operation and will also be introducing their proprietary brand of (AWARD) lubricants.

The Health Shack has just opened at 135-1855 Kirschner Rd. in Kelowna (the former location for Abby’s Tea House).

Owned and operated by Jamie Beyer, who recently relocated from Finland, this trendy shop carries the top brand of Flora and Natural Factors products. The Health Shack also has an organic coffee bar, a chill-out room and patio seating, which is shared with Komatsu Japanese Market right next door. The store has a unique soft ambiance

where you can relax with an organic almond latte.

Luanne Chore, formerly with Grant Thornton and Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC), has joined the leadership team of Southern Interior Development Initiative Trust (SIDIT) as a senior portfolio manager. She is responsible for assisting SIDIT in reaching the next performance level, building on the solid foundation and momentum achieved by the SIDIT team under chief executive officer Luby Pow’s leadership.

The Chopped Leaf also has Quesadillas, salad rolls, sandwiches and soups.

You can have one of their chef designed salads and wraps or you can design your own from their extensive list of ingredients.

It’s no trouble getting into the restaurant as the sidewalks are all complete in front of the Bernard Avenue construction zone.

out a hitch. Special thanks to the generous sponsors, including the Capital News, Astral Media, Beyond 50 Magazine, Castanet, Central Okanagan Foundation, FortisBC, Grant Thornton, Kelowna Community Resources, Mark of Distinction, Prospera Credit Union and YMCA of Okanagan.

Eric has been practicing law in the Okanagan since 1998 and has developed a practice focusing on commercial and business litigation, collection proceedings, personal injury law and estate litigation. He has appeared in hearings and trials in the Provincial and Supreme Courts of British Columbia and regularly appears in Supreme Court chambers on collection matters.

Eric’s goal is to provide clients with practical advice and legal representation with their ultimate personal and financial interests in mind. He believes that a key role of legal counsel is to advise clients about the benefits, costs, risks and advantages of each step in pursuing or defending a legal claim. Eric is experienced in advancing his client’s interests through negotiation, mediation and trial. He looks forward to continue serving his existing clients, as well as meeting and assisting new clients, at Hemmerling & Associates.

Hemmerling & Associates Law Office has been providing litigation services since January 2003. We are a full service litigation firm, focused on personal injury, insurance and commercial litigation. Our senior litigators have over 54 years of combined litigation experience and frequently appear in both the Supreme Court and Court of Appeal of British Columbia. Our clients are individuals and businesses in Kelowna, the Kootenays, the Okanagan Valley, and the Lower Mainland.

Fundraising goal reflects level of service demands Hub from A1 “I knew then, ladies and gentleman, that I was definitely helping the right organization,” Hunt-Binkley said as she thanked those who had already contributed.

The campaign will raise the money to centralize cleaning and repairs for its medical equipment loan program, which offers access to items like crutches, wheelchairs, back boards and bath seats.

“This equipment is so important because it helps people be safe and it helps people have dignity when they’re in their homes recovering from an injury,” said Nemrava.

“It also helps people who are facing end of life to have the end of their life in their home.”

Some $750,000 will be put toward expanding the volunteer base in the region from 500 people to 1,000.

“It costs us about $1,200 a year to re-

cruit, train, support, supervise and recognize a volunteer and we need to have the support to do that,” Nemrava said.

The volunteers are needed, in part, to support expanded disaster relief services as the campaign also aims to put half of the total $3 million toward further development of the emergency response network and the teams, operations centre equipment, vehicles, generators and disaster preparedness information needed for events like the ongoing wildfire evacuations.

Emergency Preparedness week runs May 6 to 12 and encourages Canadians to prepare for disaster, noting all Canadians should have enough supplies on hand to last 72 hours without help in the event of an emergency.

Contributions are now being accepted to the Red Cross House Building for Humanity Campaign at 250-491-8443 or bcsi@redcross.ca. jsmith@kelowncapnews.com

Federal regulations needed to prevent import of invasive mussels Judie Steeves STAFF REPORTER

The Okanagan Basin Water Board wants to see all boats stopped at the border to B.C. unless they have a valid inspection sticker indicating the boat has been cleaned of invasive quagga or zebra mussels.

Director Gerry Zimmermann suggested the board put forward a resolution to be discussed by the members of the Union of B.C. Municipalities urging the federal government to pass legislation to require that boats be checked at the border.

Director Bernie Bauer agreed and asked that staff draft a motion which could be used by the valley’s regional districts and municipalities to suggest several options to help prevent the spread of the invasive mussels into B.C. waterways, which they could then forward directly to the UBCM to ensure the issue is discussed at this year’s meeting.

At Tuesday’s regular meeting held in Kelowna, OBWB chairman Stu Wells commented that coordination of efforts is needed to stop contaminated vessels from entering B.C. waters. “I have faith in people not intentionally bringing in infested boats,” he said, adding he was confident that once educated about the dangers of spreading the rapidly-spreading alien molluscs, boaters and other water users would

voluntarily comply with whatever is needed to prevent their spread.

The larval stage of the mussels is microscopic and can live in water for up to 27 days such as in a bilge of a boat, and once in a lake, they multiply exponentially.

One can grow to one million in a single growing season, trillions in three years, until beaches are covered in razor-sharp shells, and water intakes, boats and other structures are all clogged by thick layers of them. They forever alter the water body’s food web and can cause bird and fish kills as well.

Provincial environment minister Terry Lake, in a letter to the OBWB, said the province received an ecological risk assessment of zebra and quagga mussels for Western Canada from Fisheries and Oceans Canada and it highlighted the potential ecological impacts.

He said the province is working with the Invasive Species Council of B.C., which is delivering the Clean, Drain and Dry program this year to educate boaters on the risks posed by aquatic hitchhikers and how to prevent their spread.

As well, he said the province is monitoring and doing early detection sampling across B.C. as well as working with U.S. agencies to ensure contaminated boats are intercepted. The province has also encouraged the federal government to include a ban on importation of zebra and quagga mussels into Can-

ada as part of the federal Aquatic Invasive Species regulation.

Kelowna Lake-Country MP Ron Cannan said the federal government is working on addressing these issues, developing a regulatory proposal that will include prevention and provisions to prohibit the live import, transport and possession of Aquatic Invasive Species such as the mussels.

The Ministry of Fisheries and Oceans said it is currently consulting with stakeholders on development of regulations, following which it would be published in the Canada Gazette for public comment. Cannan noted the government has made a significant investment of $17.5 million over the next five years to protect the Great Lakes from the threat of Asian carp.

New legislation passed by B.C. late last year makes it illegal to have or transport boats, trailers or other equipment with attached mussels in B.C., alive or dead. Conservation officers have the power to inspect and order de-contamination of suspect boats. Although the Great Lakes are already heavily infested in the invading mussels, they haven’t yet spread across Canada beyond Manitoba, and although they are in Lake Mead, Nevada and some California waters, they aren’t yet in neighbouring Washington State. Once detected, they can’t be eradicated without eradicating most other species as well.

Turner to join brother with U of T Blues

Warren Henderson

STAFF REPORTER

With the likes of Olympic medalist Dave Steen and former Canadian decathlon champ Mike Smith among the school’s alumni, Rostam Turner will soon join a track and field program with a winning tradition.

Add in the fact that his older brother and fellow decathlete, James, is already a member of the University of Toronto Varsity Blues and Turner’s post-secondary choice was an easy one to make.

“They have a great program there and a great coach in Andy Higgins, so that will help a lot,” said Rostam Turner, who committed to U of T last fall. “It’ll be good to be together with (James) on the same team and at the same school. We’ve always helped each other out for training and things like that, so I think it’s going to work out. He knows the campus and the team

and all that, so he’ll be able help ease me into things.”

Kelowna’s Turner brothers are among the best multi-event athletes ever to come out of the Okanagan. James won the Canadian junior decathlon (10 events) title in both 2011 and 2012, while Rostam struck gold in the octathlon at the Canadian youth track championships last summer in PEI. This year, Rostam has moved up a division and will compete at the junior level (18 and 19 years) Later this month, the Grade 12 student from KSS will wrap up his competitive high school career at the B.C. Combined Event Championships in Abbotsford.

Then this summer, prior to moving to Toronto, Turner will look to follow in his brother’s footsteps by qualifying for the national junior decathlon championships in Quebec.

Turner, who was recently named the City of Kelowna’s male athlete of the year for 2012, will be enrolled in the Life Sciences program at U of T.

MARYSCHUK TO TWU

A new chapter in Katie Maryschuk’s life— both academically and athletically—will begin this fall in Langley.

The soon-to-be Rutland Senior Secondary grad will attend Trinity Western University on a track and field scholarship.

“I’m just really excited that someone sees that I have potential,” said Maryschuk.

“I’m not out there every single day killing myself, but obviously I want to be better and I train really hard to do that, so I’m glad that somebody sees I may able to go far and do something with track.”

Maryschuk, 17, specializes in three field events—high jump, pole

Katie Maryschuk vault and javelin.

Last season, she won a bronze in high jump at the B.C. Athletics provincial jamboree.

This week at the Central Okanagan championships held at the Apple Bowl, Maryschuk won gold in pole vault with a personal best, a silver in high jump and a bronze in javelin.

Next on the agenda is the Okanagan Valley track and field championships next Wednesday at the Apple Bowl.

At TWU, Maryschuk will study communications.

KSS track member Rostam Turner displays his form in the senior boys long jump at the Central Okanagan track and field championships Tuesday at the Apple Bowl.

Two ex-Sun players taken in CFL draft Two of the top defensive players for the Okanagan Sun in recent years had their names called during Monday’s Canadian Football League draft.

Safety Matt Walker (Vernon Secondary), who played with the Sun in 2011, was chosen in the fifth round by the B.C. Lions, while safety and Mt. Boucherie grad Paul Spencer (2005-09) went in the eighth round to the Toronto Argonauts.

Walker played last season with the UBC Thunderbirds, while Spencer spent four season

with the Concordia Stingers of the CIS. Sun GM Jay Christensen said both players have earned the recognition.

“Not only are both guys excellent athletes but they’re good

guys,” said Christensen.

“What differentiates these guys is the work they do, not just during the football season but during the off-season. They’re both in phenomenal shape.

“Getting drafted should be a very positive experience for both of them,” he added.

Spencer sits third all time in Sun tackles with 141 and was named the club’s MVP in 2009.

He was also named the team’s top defensive back from 2007 through 2009.

The BCHL club this week named the Prince Albert, Sask. native as their captain for the 201314 campaign.

While playing predominantly a checking role for the Warriors last season, Anholt had nine goals and 31 points in 51 games.

Anholt takes over the reins from West Kelowna native Max French who

graduated from the program this spring.

“It’s a real honour to be named the captain of the Warriors,” says Anholt. “Especially following in the footsteps of Max French is something special. I feel like we’re going to have a real strong team again next year, with a great group of returning players. I would like to thank Rylan and the entire Warriors organization for giving me this opportunity.”

Canada West votes on UBCO status The UBC Okanagan Heat athletics department will find out this week if it has earned full membership status into the Canada West University Athletics Association.

UBCO requires 75 per cent approval from Canada West’s 13 member schools who will vote Thursday in Calgary on the Kelowna-based institution’s final application.

Athletics director Rob Johnson and assistant Lucia Boersma are in Calgary for the conference’s AGM and made a final

presentation on behalf of UBCO on Tuesday.

UBC Okanagan is now at the end of their three-year probationary period for official admission into Canada West.

The conference’s executive made one last site visit to UBC Okanagan in March and concluded in a report that the athletic department had met or exceeded expectations in all areas. Johnson “It’s not over until it’s over, until the vote is taken but we feel like we’ve done everything we can,” said Johnson.

“We believe we’ve proved ourselves and that we’re ready for this step, from the competitiveness aspect to our administrative abilities to meet the

B requirements of Canadat West. We’re keen to bef contributing members,”b Johnson said.

If UBCO athletics is granted final approval▼ Thursday, the way would be paved for Heat soccer teams to join Canada West in the fall of 2014.

With full member status, UBCO would also be allowed to submit applications for more varsity teams in the future, should it choose to do so.

Among local sports organizations waiting in the wings for the possibility of future applications are the Okanagan Sun, who plan to one day field a football team in the CIS (Canadian Interuniversity Sport) under the banner of UBC Okanagan.

and GM Rylan Ferster said his leadership abilities on and off the ice make Anholt a logical choice as captain.

“Matt will be a great person to lead the team,” says Ferster.

“He demonstrated a lot of leader-type qualities this past year. Also, being around the very good leadership group we had this past season will be helpful.

“Matt is a team first guy that shows up every night,” Ferster said.

Ferster said Anholt was a good leader while playing for the Prince Albert Mintos in midget, and saw leadership qualities from his very first interview with Matt.

Anholt will be joined by three former Mintos in the upcoming year on the Warriors roster: Kylar Hope, Adam Osczevski, and Tanner Bugrardt.

Anholt and his teammates will arrive for the start of main camp on Friday, Aug. 23 Assistant captains will be named after camp.

Mt. Bou Bears edge KSS Owls to take top spot

As the top two girls AAA soccer programs in the valley, the Mt. Boucherie Bears and Kelowna Owls have developed a pretty healthy rivalry.

The latest installment in the ongoing battle between the two schools took went Boucherie’s way as the Bears slipped past the Owls 1-0 Monday on a scorching afternoon at KSS. With the victory, Boucherie (6-0) completed an undefeated regular season and edged out the Owls (5-1) for top spot in Okanagan Valley league play.

Jordan Tassone’s goal on a penalty kick early in the second half (47’) was all the Bears’ needed to secure the win against a determined Owls team.

Boucherie had beaten KSS 3-1 just two weeks earlier in the final of the Owls annual tournament.

“KSS had some stretches where they held better possession of the ball, but we defended well and limited their chances as best we could,” said Bears coach Adrian Zuyderduyn. “We had a few chances of our own, particularly in the second half, and we were fortunate to score from a penalty kick.”

Owls coach Arnar Bernhardsson said his team put forth a solid effort but couldn’t find the back of the Boucherie net.

▼ DANGEROUS DRIVING

Texting at the top of distractions when behind the wheel I f British Columbians were polled, I expect that we would put texting at the top of the list of dangerous driving activities.

I don’t know if scientific studies have been done to compare the distraction of that particular activity with others such as eating, putting on make-up, programming an address into the navigational computer, or that activity my wife wrote a letter to the editor about

ACHIEVING JUSTICE

Paul Hergott “road head.”

Whatever the science, there is not one British Columbian who would disagree, with a straight face, that texting while driving is near the top of

the dangerous scale.

In fact, I bet that if any political party wanted to score extra points leading up to election day, they could do so by announcing severe penalties for texting while driving.

No one would stick up their hand and say, “Hold on, there. That’s unfairly harsh,” like what occurred to some extent with the .04 alcohol roadside penalties.

Good friends of ours were recently over for

dinner at our house. The husband, like me, is a recent convert from Blackberry to the iPhone.

An operations manager, he has researched, experimented and worked with a number of very interesting applications, or apps as they’re called in the smart phone world.

My buddy does a lot of driving. The latest app he shared with me is one that allows him to send and receive text messages using voice commands.

How brilliant is that!

You take one of the most dangerous activities imaginable and make it safe with a simple app.

A Rose By AnotheR nAme Sunday, May 12, 2013, is Mothers’ Day. On occasion, a bouquet of flowers from me on Mother’s Day would evoke memories of my childhood in my mother. I was about three years old at the time. I had made a connection between showing love and the giving of floral arrangements. Whenever I could escape mother’s watch, I would sneak into a neighbor’s garden and pick some of their flowers, which I would present to my mother as a token of my love and affection. At first it was charming; however, it got old after a while and had to stop. It seemed that the more she tried to dissuade me, the more determined I was to get yet another bouquet of flowers for her. Our neighbors first thought it cute too but my floral petty larceny eventually lost its charm and humor for them as well. Embarrassment turned to exasperation for mother. What was she to do? The next time I came to her with a bouquet of flowers, she grabbed a hank of my curly locks and pulled. “Ouch!” I screamed. “You see,” mother explained, “When you pick the flowers it hurts them the same way. You should only look at the flowers and smell them.” I did not pick flowers for mother again. I was not going to hurt the flowers.

As the years passed, I learned that picking flowers did not hurt them. On Mothers’ Day and other occasions, I would get my mother flowers. I learned that my mother loved roses. From time to time, I would give her a floral gift that kept on giving. I would get her an exotic rose plant for her garden. She always planted and then lovingly cared for them. Over the years, I came learn that the roses my mother loved have been used as symbols for the life of faith.

In his Christmas carol entitled, “Lo How a Rose E’er Blooming,” theologian and pastor Martin Luther used a rose as his image for infant Jesus. The hymn declares that the Old Testament prophets predicted the coming of this rose. The prophet Micah promised that the babe would be born in the town of Bethlehem in Judea. The prophet Isaiah promised that a baby would be the Son of God and also the son of a human being. Jesus the Messiah was described

by Isaiah as a branch that God caused to grow from the stump of Jesse, the family line of the great King David. The carol declares that Jesus was a miracle

baby. Luther described His Immaculate Conception and miracle Birth through the Virgin Mary, as a rose that bloomed on the coldest night of winter. The hymn declared that this bloom, our Lord Jesus, came to save us from our sins.

“Lo How a Rose E’er Blooming,” is one of my favorite Christmas Carols. Its words bring an image to mind: the image of a stump in the middle of a dark forest pine forest. Snow lies all around the stump. It is bitterly cold. Yet, that stump produces a single thorny branch and, at the top of the branch, a most resplendent bloom. The rose bloom is red. I see Good Friday and Easter Sunday in that branch and bloom.

The red rose points us to Good Friday. The rose bloom sits atop a thorny wooden stem that points to the old rugged cross upon which our Savior hung and suffered and died for our sins.

The red color of the bloom points to the blood that was shed on the cross. The thorns point to the nails that pierced Jesus’ hands and feet. The thorny stem also points to the scourge the soldiers used to whip Jesus and the crown of thorns that the Roman Soldiers placed on Jesus’ head. The nails and thorny crown points to our sins that pierced and scarred His body; the sins that He took on as His own, that He bore like a crown.

The red petals of the bloom point to the royal robes the Roman Soldiers placed on Jesus’ bloodied body as they mocked Him and beat Him mercilessly.

The same red rose points us to Easter Sunday. God took the wood of the old rugged cross, the nails and the thorny crown and turned them into a life-giving wooden stem. The new stem bears new life each spring. It produces green leaves which stretch out like arms from the stem. God placed a bud at the head of the stem. The bud points to the tomb in which Simon of Cyrene and Nicodemus placed Jesus’ dead body. God changed the bloodstained robe they used to mock Jesus into the petals of a beautiful bloom that bursts forth from the bud in the same way that Jesus burst forth from His tomb on Easter Sunday.

God took all the ugliness of the first Good Friday and turned it into something beautiful: resurrection and new life on the first Easter Sunday. Jesus promises to take the ugliness of suffering and

death and transform it into resurrection. It is written in the Bible: “Jesus said to her, ‘I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?’” (John 11:25-26) Sunday will be the first Mothers’ Day I will spend without my beloved mother Jean. I have now joined the ranks of those who have lost their beloved mother. I can’t give her a red rose on Sunday or tell her I love her or thank her for being the best mother ever! She passed away Saturday May 4th, 2013, at the Kelowna Hospice House 32 days short of her 82nd birthday and 19 days short of her 60thwedding anniversary.

She was surrounded by her husband, sister and three children (I am the oldest) as she passed quietly from this life to the next.

Her body succumbed to ovarian cancer, which she battled valiantly for more than three years. However, I can pray to God and thank Him for her and ask my Lord Jesus to relay the message and hug her for me. I would encourage all my sisters and brothers who have lost their mothers to do the same.

To my son Jon, my nephew Noah and all of you who still have the unfathomable privilege of speaking to and even being with your mother on Sunday, I offer this prescription: if you can’t be with your mother, at a minimum call her, confess that you have taken her for granted, tell her that you love her and that she is the best mother ever! If you can be with her, hug her, and give her a red rose.

ing with the use of a hands free device, which of course is much safer.

Regular readers of this column will notice the sarcasm dripping down the page.

Thanks to a grant from the United States Department of Transportation, a scientific study into the distraction of texting, by hand as well as by using voice commands, has been recently completed by researchers at the Texas Transportation Institute.

I would be pleased to e-mail anyone who asks a link to the April, 2013, report.

The study, conducted in an actual driving environment, concludes that a driver’s reaction time is doubled when distracted by reading or sending a text message.

The study demonstrates how texting drivers are less able to react to sudden roadway hazards, and finds that texting impairment is even greater than many experts believed.

The “actual driving environment” was a closed course, the driving complexity minimized by using a straight-line course that contained no hills, traffic or potential conflicts other than construction zone barrels.

“It is frightening,” the researchers wrote, “to think of how much more poorly our participants may have performed if

the driving conditions were more consistent with routine driving.”

The kicker—the study found no difference in driver distraction between manual texting and texting using voice commands.

Imagine that. Imagine the problem with texting being more about the brain being occupied and less about holding the device.

Gee, I wonder if that is another nail in the coffin of the obvious conclusion that you are just as distracted by a cell phone discussion whether or not your hand is held up to your ear.

Is it any wonder that the news reported early this year that the Superintendent of Motor Vehicles was unable to prove that the hand held cell phone ban saved any lives? Of course it hasn’t.

All the ban did was cost British Columbians a lot of money to install hands-free devices.

If anything, it increased the dangerous behaviour of cell phone use while driving by endorsing the hands free method. I feel like a child— screaming and stomping my feet but nobody is listening.

Airport links to Yukon through Air North

Non-stop seasonal flights from Kelowna International Airport (YLW) to the Yukon will begin June 6 and run until Oct. 15.

“This is great news,” said YLW airport advisory chair Kelowna Mayor Walter Gray.

“We have the opportunity with Air North to make the Yukon more accessible and to bring the Yukon to the Okanagan. We each have two amazing regions, rich to explore.”

The city of Whitehorse lies in the traditional territory of two First Nations—the Kwanlin Dun and the Ta’an Kwach’an—and boasts a vibrant arts and cultural community.

From May to September the Yukon enjoys roundthe-clock daylight, giving long days to experience the Yukon’s legendary wilderness.

“We’ve made travel between the Okanagan and the Yukon so much simpler,” said Allan Moore, director of commercial development for Air North.

“It’s a great combination of our amazing in-flight service, affordable fares and the convenience of a single flight. We hope to see passenger demand increase this to year-round service.”

NEWS ▼ GENERAL PREFERENTIALTARIFF

Ottawa won’t support outdated special tax treatments I n the early 1970s, the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) recommended that developed economies grant autonomous and non-reciprocal tariff preferences to developing countries.

This was done in order to increase these countries’ export earnings, promote their industrialization and promote their economic growth.

Canada’s General Preferential Tariff (GPT) for developing countries was implemented in 1974.

Under the GPT, Canada currently offers du-

MP’S REPORT

Ron Cannan ty-free or preferential market access to imports of most products from 175 designated beneficiaries, including countries like China, India, Brazil and South Korea.

To give you an idea of what that means in dollar terms, in 2011 imports under the GPT treatment totalled $15.2 billion.

The global econom-

ic landscape has changed considerably since 1974, including significant shifts in the income levels and trade competitiveness of certain developing countries.

China, one of the current recipients of the GPT, now has an economy over four times larger than our economy, with a value of $7,318 billion compared to Canada’s $1,736 billion.

With the program due to expire on June 30, 2014 and in an effort to respond to these changes, Economic Action Plan 2012 announced that the government was undertaking a comprehensive review

of the GPT to ensure that this form of development assistance aligned with Canada’s development policy objectives.

As such, the government sought consultation on its intention to modify the list of beneficiary countries by withdrawing GPT treatment from countries that: • are classified for two consecutive years as high income or upper-middle income economies according to the latest World Bank income classifications; or • have a share of world exports that is equal to or greater than one per cent for two consecutive years

Promoting motorcycle road safety Known for its great weather and windy back roads, the Okanagan is the home of a large and ever-growing motorcycle community.

May is Motorcycle Awareness Month and as the weather gets sunnier, more motorcyclists will be on the road and enjoying their favourite sport.

But the potential dangers of motorcycle riding were also tragically illustrated last weekend when a motorcyclist was killed in a collision with a vehicle on Glenmore Road.

The Kelowna & District Safety Council offers the following tips to ensure that everyone, motorcyclists and drivers alike, arrives home safely.

phones. Talking or texting on a handheld while operating a vehicle is not only illegal but the distraction it causes is extremely hazardous to other road users and especially to motorcyclists.

Use caution and scan well when entering an intersection.

Nearly 80 per cent of urban intersection twovehicle motorcycle collisions occur at signalized intersections.

In 75 per cent of these crashes the motorcycle had the right of way.

Don’t tailgate. Motorcycles have better braking abilities than cars, so leave a greater space cushion between you and the rider in front of you than you would for a driver.

DRIVERS SHOULD:

MOTORCYCLISTS SHOULD:

Be on the lookout for motorcyclists.

Motorcycles are small and can easily slip into a driver’s blind spot.

Use your turn signals, check your mirrors and always shoulder check before changing lanes or overtaking other vehicles.

Stay off your cell

Think ahead, ride defensively and assume you are invisible to other road users.

Remember, motorists have been used to not seeing motorcyclists for at least five months and they may well not see what they are not expecting to see.

After months of not riding, recognize that your skills are not as sharp as they were at the end of last season, so keep your riding at a moderate pace until the rust wears off.

Practice your slow speed control and sudden stops in an open area free from traffic.

Consider taking a rider refresher from a professional school. Riding is a lifelong sport and riders should continue to improve their skills in order to stay on top of their game.

Wear “all the gear all the time.” By dressing for the crash and not for the weather, riders will be best protected. This includes a DOT approved helmet, motorcycle jacket, gloves, sturdy leather boots and jeans or riding pants. Also consider highvis gear or a safety vest.

Ensure your bike is properly prepared and ready for riding this season after winter’s storage—tires (adequate tread depth, no cracks on sidewalls, properly inflated to manufacturers’ recommendations); replenish oil

and filter if not done prior to storage; check brake pads for wear; ensure all fasteners are tight.

Use turn signals every time you change lanes and be sure to perform an inside shoulder check with every lane change.

Dominate your lane so that you will be most visible to other road users.

Scan 12 seconds ahead of you and check your mirrors every five to eight seconds.

Ride Smart. Don’t stunt ride in traffic and never ride impaired. If you’re feeling too tired or too preoccupied with life’s stresses to ride— don’t.

The Kelowna & District Safety Council is a non-profit organization that has been a provincial leader in motorcycle safety since 1980.

With the largest rider training facility outside of the Lower Mainland, KDSC trains over 500 new riders each year.

For information on any of KDSC’s programs, visit the website www. kdsc.bc.ca or call 250765-3163.

according to the latest World Trade Organization trade statistics.

Despite the partisan outrage that amending the list of countries which receive the GPT is a tax grab, our government has been clear that it is not prepared to support outdated special tax treatments that gives our competitors a distinct advantage over Canadian manufacturers.

The remedy, in fact, is for these countries to pursue free trade agreements with Canada, which would provide better tariff treatment than the GPT. As a member of the Standing Committee on

International Trade for the past seven years, I can attest to the fact that, through the hard work of our International Trade Minister Ed Fast, Canada remains fully committed to the successful completion of all ongoing free trade agreement negotiations and the active pursuit of new and deeper trading relationships.

As for you the consumer, our government has cut tariffs by almost $600 million in an effort to bring prices of goods down. In addition, our government has cut taxes over 150 times, saving the average family $3,200 per year.

Full-day camps and morning-only “mini camps” are offered, with activities running Monday through Friday. Art Adventures begins July 8 and the daily or weekly camp programs run until Aug. 23.

Many of the Art Adventures camps include off-site trips to artist’s studios, City Park, Waterfront Park and Kasugai Gardens.

During the camps, children can expect to develop skills in drawing, painting, printmaking, mixed media and sculp-

ture, while being inspired by the current exhibitions on view at the Gallery.

Guest artists play a pivotal role at each of the camps, as they share their expertise with the children to help them develop a better understanding of art.

New this year is a special series of workshops offered Fridays which are geared for teens aged 12 to 18.

Jim Elwood, an accomplished local artist comfortable working in several media, including drawing, watercolour and block printing, will lead the workshops, which will

explore artistic themes that range from “Street Art” to “Beach Sculpture.”

Class sizes for all camps are limited, allowing for more one-onone instruction to enrich the experience.

All programs highlight skill-building and self-expression, as well as the introduction of new ideas and artistic techniques.

“Art Adventures is primarily about creating a fun and interactive experience for engaging children with art,” said Renée Burgess, head of public programming at the Ke-

lowna Art Gallery.

“It’s important that we offer programs that allow kids to develop new skills, perspectives and instill confidence in their own creative abilities.

“Art Adventures is a rewarding experience where the children have so much fun, they often forget they are learning.”

In addition to creative exploration for participants, Art Adventures can offer parents peace of mind that their children will be spending their summer days with their peers in a nurturing and creative environment.

▼ ACUPUNCTURE

Relieving carpal tunnel stress T he carpal tunnel is a narrow passageway bound by bones and ligaments located on the inside of your wrist.

It protects the main nerve to your hand and the tendons that bend your fingers.

When there is pressure placed on the nerve, it produces numbness, tingling, pain and over time, loss of strength in the hand, a condition that is known as carpal tunnel syndrome.

Pressure on the nerve can stem from anything that reduces the space for it in the carpal tunnel, such as overusing the hand in work, sports and daily activities particularly through repetitive motions, injury to the area, or other health conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, certain hormonal disorders, or fluid retention during pregnancy.

In many cases, carpal tunnel symptoms are actually caused by a nerve compression in the neck rather than by a narrowing of the carpal tunnel.

Bad posture, for example, can cause compression of the nerves that run down the arm and

NEEDLE NOTES

James Kaufman eventually pass through the carpal tunnel.

In Western medicine, carpal tunnel syndrome is treated with anti-inflammatory drugs or corticosteroids to reduce swelling, with physiotherapy to stretch the ligaments and maintain mobility and muscle strength, with massage for relaxation and—as a last resort— with surgery, to cut the ligament in order to create more space for the confined structures in the carpal tunnel.

In traditional Chinese medicine, as usual, there are many different reasons why a person develops symptoms like those of CTS. There are two organs that are commonly involved in many bone and muscle/sinew problems, the kidney and liver.

The kidneys are said to produce marrow and control the strength of the

bones.

Therefore if the kidneys are strong and healthy, the bones will be also, whereas if the kidneys are weak the bones may also be weak and/or brittle.

The liver controls the state of the sinews (muscle and tendons), so if the liver is strong and functioning properly, the sinews will be properly lubricated and nourished to have the capacity to contract and relax in a healthy manner.

When a problem arises in a joint, whether due to injury or overuse, the body is normally able to recover and heal the tissues.

However, with injuries, what can commonly happen at the initial stage is that the qi and blood get stuck and no longer circulate through the joint properly, causing pain.

If the quality of blood is generally poor, which is common in a liver yin deficiency, the injured site will of course take longer to heal or even fail to heal completely, because the blood doesn’t provide the proper nourishment to heal the weakened area.

When injury occurs

in the case of overuse of a joint, the kidneys and liver are also involved, because the joint may sustain damage if it isn’t receiving a sufficient quality of nourishment and moistening of qi and blood.

With acupuncture we can reinforce the energy of kidneys and liver in order to strengthen the bones, muscles and tendons to allow them to heal properly and prevent future injury.

We can also encourage circulation of the stuck energy and blood in order to break up the blockages in the injured area and promote healing.

Acupuncture provides relief from pain and inflammation, but also encourages healing to the area and a healthier state of functioning, so that the carpal tunnel area is more able to withstand injury and sustain health during frequent use.

▼ OKANAGAN COLLEGE

Funds secure future for robotics and welding programs A generous, and anonymous, donation has helped put new equipment into the hands of students in both the Okanagan College mechanical engineering technology and welding.

The $149,500 donation made to the Okanagan College Foundation was targeted specifically for the two departments, and came at a time when critical pieces of equipment needed to be replaced.

“This helps us out immensely,” said welding program chair Dean Nutter.

“We used our portion of the funds to buy a shear—that’s a big piece

of equipment and something we use every single day, seven hours a day.”

The new shear, which mechanically cuts through massive pieces of metal, also provides the latest in safety technology in the form of a laser beam. If that beam is broken, the equipment automatically shuts down.

“This piece of machinery meets and exceeds all the safety and technology standards,” Nutter said.

Over in the mechanical engineering technology department, program chair Reg Marte was working with the department and the Dean’s office trying to figure out where the funds would

come from to replace six units of robotic arms used in the second year Robotics course.

“We were just sitting here wishing a pot of gold would come down from the sky, and then it did,” he said. “We don’t know what we would have done without this.”

Marte is grateful to the donor, and also to robotics specialist and professor Nadir Ould-Khessal, who has been teaching the course and keeping the robots in top shape between classes.

“Nadir is a very happy camper,” Marte said. “It’s a bit like having an old car—it’s unreliable and can leave you high and

“As a student working with that, you may not appreciate what’s wronghat it’s the hardware that’s acting up.

“And so thankfully, Nadir was there to step in and fix things.”

To get the most out of the donation, Marte and Ould-Khessal researched the alternatives and discovered they could replace the electronic components of the equipment and bring all of their units to modern-day specs.

“What this donation did was upgrade the lab, so we now have a stateof-the-art robotics lab,” Ould-Khessal said.

“With this new equipment, we can provide the students with a deeper, richer learning experience in terms of both theory and hands-on skills.”

Along with the new robots, the donation provided for additional $20,000 in components, so students now have six complete stations to work at, removing the needs for classes to share robotic equipment such as conveyors.

Dealing with aggravated pain caused by golf swing

O

ne of the most persistent problems I’ve had with my own body from golfing has been neck pain.

After treating hundreds of golfers over the last 19 years, I know I’m not alone with that complaint.

Understanding why neck pain is aggravated by the golf swing starts with better insight into the demands that are placed on a neck during the swing.

The golf swing is basically a set of rotations of the body. As your body starts to turn away from the ball while you are taking the club back, your head essentially rotates in the opposite direction.

This occurs because your head needs to stay still with the eyes focused on the ball as the body rotates away.

For a right handed golfer, performing a full swing take away requires about 90 degrees of neck rotation to the left.

As you swing the club back towards the ball,

KEEPING YOU MOVING

Jay Stone the winding up of the spine that you did on the take away reverses and once you’ve reached impact with the ball, your body continues to rotate through, causing the neck to rotate to the right relative to the body.

On a full swing, a right handed golfer will need approximately 90 degrees of right neck rotation to reach full shoulder turn.

You can quickly test this on yourself by getting into your set up position without a golf club and going into your full back swing position.

If you are a right handed golfer you should notice that your left shoulder is now under your chin.

This is 90 degrees of neck rotation to the left.

Now swing through to impact and to your follow through position.

Your trail, or right shoulder, should now be under your chin. This is 90 degrees of neck rotation to the right.

If you had an inability to achieve either of these positions, with or without pain, you probably have a neck restriction and probably some underlying neck issue.

If you did notice you lack movement in your neck when you did this swing test, this simple stretch done on a daily basis may help improve that lost movement.

Sit or stand with your head in a good posture gently keeping your chin tucked. Slowly rotate to look over your left shoulder (keeping chin tucked).

At the end of this movement, you can add slight overpressure by using the left hand against the right side of your chin.

Hold this position for two seconds and then return your head facing forward. Repeat to the right and hold two seconds.

GO FISHING… Lukas Lawrence-McCallum took part in the grand opening Go Fish event last Saturday at Hall Road Pond. Those 16 and under will have the chance to fish for one rainbow trout per day, every Saturday and Sunday, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., until June 16 at Hall Road Pond and the netted off portion at the south end of Shannon Lake in West Kelowna.

WADE PATERSON/CAPITAL NEWS

Perform six to eight stretches each direction and do this daily. If you experience pain, dizziness, or symptoms into your arm while doing this stretch; stop.

If you find this happens every time you attempt this stretch, you should be looked at by your doctor or other qualified health care practitioner. It is normal to feel a light stretching discomfort at the end of the range, but this discomfort should go away soon after you release the stretch.

There are many con-

ditions that can cause pain and loss of motion in the neck.

Disk injury, osteoarthritis, ligament or muscle damage (acute or chronic) and/or poor muscle balance from years of bad posture are just some of the possible reasons.

Films made when speedy push comes to hasty shove

Jennifer Smith

STAFF REPORTER

There are a few memorable moments in the Okanagan film industry’s history.

David Suzuki made his acting debut on a gold motorbike on these dusty roads. We all collectively got quite high on the success of Adam Scorgie’s The Union: The Business Behind Getting High. Zombies invaded the downtown core when Valley of Zombies arrived to put us on the big screen and Jack Nicholson even graced us with his presence in The Pledge.

Now The Okanagan Society of Independent Film (OSIF) is asking for a few more moments of our time to make a collection of memorable scenes among the vines and orchards so oft referenced as picturesque.

And they have a timeframe: Five days.

“I find the more filmmakers I have around me, the more I try harder,” said Kelly Veltri, OSIF president and owner of 1980Four Productions.

The 5-Day Film Challenge is all about promoting film to the community and building a commun-

ity for filmmakers in the Okanagan.

Within film circles, competitions like this one are generally limited to 48 hours. Those willing to come out and make a movie on a tight timeline generally commit to forgoing sleep, skimping on meals, throwing their heart and soul into a weekend of creativity in the name of their art.

Inspired by 24-hour plays, the projects run all over the world, from Cannes to Prague to Rome, and have been running since 2001 under the careful guidance of producers Mark Ruppert and Liz Langston. The pair founded the project and have made it their life’s work.

But here in the Okanagan, the pace is a little slower.

Rather than force fellow creative brethren to skimp on the pleasantries in life—food, water, sanity…not to mention paid employment—OSIF is giving everyone who participates in their next filmmaking contest five days to complete their film.

Participants simply show up to the Rotary Centre for the Arts with a complete entry form, $30

CONTRIBUTED

FILMMAKER Kelly Veltri says he volunteers with the Okanagan Society of Independent Filmmakers to keep the industry alive and well and foster new growth for those who want to make a movie. and the creative juices flowing.

“It’s an open-genre contest,” said Veltri.

“We’ll give you a prop and a line of dialogue and then you’re off.”

Just where it goes from there is really up to the creators.

Like the 3-Day Novel Contest, which has run

every Labour Day weekend since 1977 and just saw its first two-time winner crowned this year, there is a small cash prize.

First place will take home $500.

And while it might not spawn A Mother’s Nightmare, the made-inthe-Okanagan television drama filmed in the Okan-

gan and debuting in Kelowna today (Thursday, April 9), there’s a good chance the seeds of another film project may stem from the week’s effort.

The Okanagan Society of Independent Filmmaking has been around in some format since the 1990s, but officially

marks its 10-year anniversary as a society this year.

The first time the fiveday film challenge was done in this area was in 2010, but with this year’s effort, OSIF is hoping to make it an annual event.

There will be a showing of all the films at the end of the event with prizes handed out—loca-

tion to be announced. The winner’s name will be engraved on the OSIF cup with “bragging rights for the next year.”

The event runs Friday, May 24 to Wednesday, May 29. Complete details can be found on the OSIF website at osif.org. jsmith@kelownacapnews.com

▼ MOVIE REVIEW

No. 3 for Iron Man with more action, more laughs IRON MAN 3

F

or those of us who are big fans of the Iron Man franchise, this Iron Man 3 was different in many ways: It was the first of the series not directed by Jon Favreau who has a role in the film as Happy Hogan, Stark’s obsessive Chief of Security; It was the first time that Samuel L. Jackson did not appear in any Iron Man related movie as Nick Fury; And it was darker than previous films.

Originally budgeted for $140 mil-

lion, the BEHIND THE filming SCREEN budget increased to $200 million after the Susan AvenSteen gers became a huge hit.

Robert Downey Jr., of course, is Tony Stark. In his fifth portrayal of

Stark, Downey, once written off by Hollywood as a perpetual ‘bad boy,’ has evolved into a most respected actor and has risen to the top with several recent hits ( Sherlock Holmes, Avengers and more).

Other cast members—Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow); back as Col. James Rhodes is Don Cheadle; Guy Pearce (Hurt Locker) is villain Aldrich Killan, a role once considered for Jude Law; and Ben Kingsley is The Mandarin.

Look for a cameo featuring Iron

Man creator Stan Lee. This film has action all the way through with Stark coping with a new terrorist threat that hits very close to home. This is full of high tech toys, lots of funny lines and comic relief, and will certainly appeal to a wide audience.

One good line (and there were many): “You know what keeps going through my mind? Where’s my sandwich?”

I saw this one in 3D and, unlike many, it makes a difference. The 3D

version will really give the viewer an up- close and personal experience, particularly in the big action scenes.

I give this film four reels out of five in the hopes that there will be an Iron Man 4.

orld-class performers, handson creative experiences, exposure to the arts and children focused—that in a nutshell describes the Interior Savings Fat Cat Children’s Festival.

Scheduled for June 7 and 8 at Waterfront Park in Kelowna, the success of this festival is due, in large part, to a vibrant team of volunteers who help create the magic.

What moves you to get involved? Are you a people person? Do you enjoy children? Is your interest in keeping people organized and safe?

There are lots of roles for you to consider. Use your hands to paint faces, set up the stage, help at an activity station or direct others. Every position is vital to making this Fat Cat Children’s Festival happen.

Established in 1990, this annual festival was organized to establish a high-quality, professionally produced educational summer festival for children in the Central Okanagan.

In 2007, the vision of the festival expanded to a two-day event in June that includes a School Day on Friday and the Community Day, complete with parade, on Saturday.

School Day Friday runs from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. for schools across the Central Okanagan and engages children in hands-on programming and workshops.

Community Day Saturday begins with the parade along Bernard Av-

It is showing for two shows only, this Saturday May 11 and Sunday May 12 at 5 p.m.

And do not forget that Star Trek Into Darkness opens next Friday, May 17 but your first chance to see it is next Wednesday, May 15 in the Xtreme auditorium at the Landmark Cinemas 8 in West Kelowna.

Then on Thursday, there are advanced screenings not only at the Landmark 8, but also at the Grand 10 and the Paramount. Tickets are on sale now at www.landmarkcinemas.com.

al Historic Site on Belleville Street in the provincial capital.

The festivities will include the finest from the province’s talented creators and artists, collected through a provincewide public submission process.

Applications from B.C. residents will be accepted in four areas— music, food, film, and photography.

The aim is to provide a cross-regional representa-

tion of the arts and cultural sectors of B.C. “The Provincial Capital Commission has been involved with B.C. Day celebrations since 2008 and we are looking forward to having a truly B.C.-wide participation at this summer’s event,” said Rick Crosby, chief executive officer for the Provincial Capital Commission.

“It is a way to both celebrate our great province and to showcase the many talented musicians

and artisans who contribute to B.C.’s diverse and vibrant communities.”

Submissions are currently being accepted on the Celebrate BC website (www.celebratebcday.com) prior to June 15, 2013.

“Our mandate is to connect and celebrate the capital with British Columbians and partnering with others to host events like this aligns very well with our goals and objectives,” Crosby said.

all eat as our prehistoric ancestors did?

Arguments for both sides are compelling.

Some anthropologists weigh in saying that we did in fact consume grains in Palaeolithic times.

Others say the fossil record is incomplete, so we don’t really know what we ate. Some say we adapt and others say we haven’t.

I could add quotes and references. I could spend days poring over the popular literature and scientific studies, and come up with an argument one way or another. But I won’t today.

The fact is, for better or worse, our food has evolved.

We live in a world where most food is mass produced far from home.

Huge companies are creating disease resistant strains of our favourite foods such as wheat.

Some of this is fed to us. Some of it is fed to livestock, which also have evolved, but likely have not yet adapted to their own processed diet.

We in turn consume this livestock. Packaged food, processed food and fast foods are abundant and cheap.

The cultures that have somehow managed to avoid this mass produced food and continue with their indigenous diets are healthy.

Whether they eat grains and legumes, or don’t. Eat higher amounts of meat, or not.

When we eat unprocessed, all natural foods, we seem to do better.

It seems safe to say that a diet high in vegetables and fruits is healthier.

Eating locally is better for the environment and helps the consumer control what they are getting.

Ultimately, there are many ways to eat healthfully. Everyone is slightly different and needs to find what works for them.

Find something that you can stick to and forget about labelling your diet.

Eat well at least 80 per cent of the time and don’t worry about the rest. Eat mindfully and make conscious choices. Find enjoyment in food again.

For me, this means that occasionally I want to get a soy latte from the Bean Scene and stroll along the waterfront.

I love the availability of food from around the world, like quinoa and chia seeds.

I love the variety of locally grown “superfoods” I can find at the Farmer’s Market every week, like the greens and radishes that are already so abundant in our beautiful city.

I also love to bake, and like an oatmeal chocolate chip scone hot from the oven once in a while.

For me, this is the path that works.

I feel great and I love food. Find your own path. And don’t worry too much about what our ancestors did, because we aren’t cavemen.

So Le Normand is organizing Kelowna’s first Jane Jacobs Walk on Sunday, May 12, from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Mission Creek Parkway, starting at the pedestrian bridge near the Eeco Centre.

The eight-kilometre walk is pedestrian, stroller and wheelchair friendly.

There is also a shorter version of the walk. No registration is required.

Central Okanagan emergency responders and Emergency Operations Centre teams and volunteers like Emergency Support Services train and prepare throughout the year in the event they are called into service.

“We encourage all families in the region to join in their own preparations during this important time of year,” Brolund said.

.

The www.cordemergency.ca website also has links to the wealth of emergency planning information available through the provincial Emergency Management BC and federal GetPrepared.ca programs.

A selection of emergency preparedness pamphlets is also available at the Regional District of Central Okanagan office, 1450 KLO Rd. in Kelowna, and the main Kelowna Fire Hall at 2255 Enterprise Way.

“The cordemergency. ca website proved to be an incredibly valuable direct information source during last year’s various flooding and wildfire events across the region,” said emergency program coordinator Jason Brolund.

“Subscribers received real time notification whenever any new information was released from the Emergency Operation Centre including detailed maps showing areas under evacuation alerts and orders.

“In fact, during the Trepanier fire more than 55,000 unique visitors checked out the site, from within the Central Okanagan and as far away as Australia, Mexico and Switzerland.”

Your doorbell rings.

When you answer, the emergency responder outside quickly tells you to gather your family and leave because of a threatening emergency. Are you ready?

Two possible outcomes to this scenario have played out over the years in the Central Okanagan.

You either feel the adrenaline rush, yet confidently respond, with each member of your family running through your prepared emergency plan, or you could panic, start grabbing items you think you might need or might want to save and forever regret that you weren’t ready to respond.

The Central Okanagan Regional Emergency Program encourages you and your family to invest some important time May 5 to 11 during Emergency Preparedness Week and get prepared.

Know the risks. Make a plan. Get a kit.

These are the three simple, easy to remember steps that every Central Okanagan family should act on during Emergency Preparedness Week.

Organizing your family should also include a visit to the Central Okanagan Emergency Operation Centre website cordemergency.ca.

NEWS ▼ HUNGER AWARENESS WEEK

Puppeteer relates to young kids

CONTRIBUTED

NEW ARRIVAL…This is one of the two new engine trucks

that have been purchased for North Westside Fire Rescue by the regional district at a cost of more than $300,000 each.

Puppeteer, Cindy Bertrand has been visiting local schools this week to help raise awareness on the issue of hunger during Hunger Awareness Week, May 6 to 10.

Hunger Awareness Week is a week-long initiative that challenges Canadians to learn more about the issue of hunger, the important work of food banks and to take action.

Nearly 900,000 Canadians will visit a food

bank for assistance this month alone.

Of those, 38 per cent are children. Hunger is often a hidden issue, so the Kelowna Community Food Bank and Westside Community Food Banks are working together to raise awareness in the Central Okanagan.

Kelowna and Westside Community Food Banks have partnered with Puppets on Purpose, the Okanagan Regional Library (Kelowna and West Ke-

lowna branches), School District 23, Westbank First Nation and the Kelowna Christian School to help spread the message.

Cindy Bertrand is the founder of Puppets on Purpose.

She uses her puppets to help adults and children discuss situations that are difficult including; addiction, abuse, bullying, divorce, self-esteem, body image and nutrition.

Vonnie Lavers, executive director for the Kelowna Community Food Bank, said, “Bertrand’s puppets talk about hunger in a way that younger children can understand.

“Often children take this learning home and turn conversations with their parents into action.”

As part of her Hunger Awareness Week tour, Bertrand planned to visit Kelowna Christian School, Bankhead Elementary and Sensisyusten House of Learning.

After the shows, the children will draw pictures about what they learned.

These drawings will be on display at the Kelowna and West Kelowna Okanagan Regional Libraries.

Both libraries will be accepting food donations.

The general public is encouraged to visit the library, make a donation and enjoy these works of art created by local children.

The exhibits will be on display until May 31.

“The experience Russel will bring to our college will be essential in furthering our goals and in meeting the needs of our students and community,” said Charlotte Kushner, vice-president, students.

His background includes expertise in strategic recruitment and marketing as well as management.

During his tenure at Medicine Hat College, Boris worked in more than 25 countries and has drawn students from about 50 countries to the Alberta community.

Among his many accomplishments, Boris created and implemented a renowned English as a Second Language program that has served more than 1,500 students. A former ESL instructor, Boris has a deep understanding of curriculum and programming.

“I’m really looking forward to joining Okanagan College and am excited about the opportunities that exist to build on the successes of the International Education department,” said Boris.

“I’ve been impressed by the college’s leadership and its strong reputation. I welcome the opportunity to become a part of the institution and help further the College’s international agenda to increase its international student population.”

Boris holds a bachelor of arts degree from Jamestown College and is certified in leadership and development by Maricopa Community Colleges.

NEWS ▼ HOPE AIR

Raising money for medical flight service Hope Air is a registered national charity that provides free flights to families and individuals who cannot afford the cost of an airline ticket to get to medical expertise or specialized medical technologies that usually exist only in larger urban centres.

Since Hope Air’s first flight in 1986, the service has arranged over 75,000 free flights, and has grown to become a national resource for individuals of all ages suffering from a wide range of illnesses.

Close to 50 per cent of the flights Hope Air provides are for children and their escorts, most of who live in a household where the income is at or below a low-income line.

Hope Air operates three different flight programs: • The Commercial Airline Donation Program benefits from the generosity of many of Canada’s commercial airlines through the use of donated seats and frequent flyer points. For each donated flight, Hope Air covers the additional fees and taxes on behalf of the client.

• Hope Air’s Volunteer Pilot Program partners with hundreds of private pilots from across Canada who volunteer their time and aircraft to service communities not well covered by commercial airlines. Even though Hope Air reimburses volunteer pilots for some of their costs, these dedicated individuals make a significant financial contribution of their own.

• Through the generous support of our donors, the Flight Purchase Program allows Hope Air to directly purchase flights from airlines for Canadians in need when donated seats and volunteer pilot flights are unavailable.

Hope Air’s busiest route is between Kelowna and Vancouver. Last year, Hope Air arranged more than 1,200 free charitable flights for residents of the Okanagan. This year, that number is likely to be even higher.

In order to make sure that we have funds to meet the increasing demand for our service, we have partnered with local groups and companies.

One such partnership is with seven Overwaitea Food Group stores in and around Kelowna.

Whenever customers accumulate 1,000 points or more on their More Rewards card, they can donate them at the checkout when they shop at the following stores: • Save-on-Foods on Lakeshore Road and in the Orchard Plaza on Cooper Road in Kelowna • Save-on-Foods on Dobbin Road in Westbank • Cooper’s Foods in Rutland and Glenmore • Cooper’s Foods on Main Street in Winfield • Urban Fare in Mission Park Shopping Centre.

Each 1,000 More Rewards points represents $1, and the stores will match it, doubling the amount of funds going to Hope Air’s mission.

All that the customers need to do is tell the cashier that they want their points to go to Hope Air.

NEWS ▼ UBC OKANAGAN

Awards presented to teachers who make a difference Great teachers inspire students to achieve remarkable things—and three of UBC Okanagan’s best were honoured with awards for Teaching Excellence and Innovation in a recent ceremony at the Okanagan campus.

John Wagner, associate professor of anthropology in the Irving K. Barber School of Arts and Sciences, is recognized in the senior faculty awards category.

The award for junior faculty member is shared

by Ilya Parkins, assistant professor and chair of the Gender and Women’s Studies Program in the Irving K. Barber School of Arts and Sciences, along with Jonathan Holzman, associate professor with the School of Engineering.

“Our celebrated teachers begin with innovation in the classroom but their dedication goes well beyond the corridors of traditional learning,” said UBCO Dep-

uty Vice-Chancellor and Principal Deborah Buszard. “It is a pleasure to recognize John Wagner, Illya Parkins, and Jonathan Holzman for their achievements, their community work, and for inspiring their students in meaningful ways.”

Wagner is renowned for bringing a wealth of theory and real-life practicality to the academic experience. His refreshing teaching approach has coined the term “Wagnerism” among his students and he encourages all of his students to perform to the top of their capabilities.

“John Wagner is well known for his experience and interests in development, foreign aid, and ecological practice,” said UBCO Provost Wesley Pue, in conferring the award.

“He leads by example, integrating teaching with research and guiding his students to be better global citizens. John is a

leader in society as well as at UBC.” Parkins runs the Gender and Women’s Studies (GWST) program and has acted as advisor since its inception.

She has expanded the area of study, seeking to establish an interdisciplinary Major in Gender and Sexuality Studies.

Her dedication to students is evidenced in the growing enrolment in GWST, which has increased by more than a third since 2009.

“Ilya Parkins is committed to excellence in teaching, mentoring her graduate students, and building a learning community that continues to grow, thanks to her focus, dedication, and enthusiasm,” said Pue. “Ilya makes a strong contribution to graduate studies and adds to UBC’s reputation as a research destination for students.”

Holzman has not only pioneered the Integrated Optics Laboratory and

Applied Micro and Nanosystems Facility at the UBC Okanagan campus, but has developed curriculum, implemented innovations in teaching and learning, encouraged interdisciplinary approaches to learning, and supported national and global initiatives in electrical engineering.

“Jonathan Holzman has played an integral role in building academic programs and laboratories and fostering global awareness in technology and teaching,” said Pue. “He has been instrumental in bridging learning between college and university environments.

These attributes make him a great faculty member.

“But what makes Jonathan a great teacher is his ability to foster leadership qualities, teamwork, and problem-solving skills with his students.”

UBC’s Teaching Excellence and Innovation Awards recognize a senior faculty member with

Teaching Excellence Awards to John Wagner and Ilya Parkins of the Irving K. Barber School of Arts and Sciences. Also shown are UBCO provost Wesley Pue and Cynthia Mathieson, dean of the Irving K. Barber School of Arts and Sciences.

10 years or more teaching experience and a junior faculty member with less than 10 years’ experience in teaching.

The awards consist of a $3,000 prize and the recipients will be honoured during June’s Convoca-

tion ceremonies.

The award recipients join the UBC Okanagan Academy of Teaching Excellence and participate in the selection process for future teaching award nominees.

In addition to the

teaching awards, 42 faculty members were recognized with Honour Roll distinctions.

The Provost’s Award for Teaching Assistants and Tutors, which carries a $500 cash prize, was presented to six recipients.

ENVIRONMENT COLUMNIST David Suzuki values the time he has spent working with the government of Bhutan on happiness as its greatest wealth indicator.

Five months ago, West Kelowna’s Paul Duffield had little more than a dream of becoming an ice swimmer.

He had done some training in cold water, but seemed uncertain if he would succeed leading up to his first official ice swim.

But since last December he has completed Canada’s first mile-long ice swim, broken the ice swimming long distance world record and earned a modest amount of fame in a unique and challenging sport.

This summer he will continue to make ice swimming history when he joins 39 other cold water endurance swimmers in a relay swim across the Bering Straight.

The Bering Strait is icefree from June to October each year and is one of the only bodies of water that has not yet been conquered by endurance swimmers.

Sea temperatures in the summer average about 5 C. He will join the team of swimmers to swim from Cape Dezhnev, Russia to Cape Prince of Wales, Al-

aska.

The total distance the swimmers will cover is 86 km; however, with tides and currents that distance could feel more like 110 km. It will likely take more than 40 hours to complete the journey.

Duffield will be the only Canadian swimmer in the group.

“I couldn’t believe it when I read the e-mail,” said Duffield after receiving an official invitation from Andrew Chin, founding member of the Inter-

national Ice Swimming Association.

“I had to read it over and over to make sure I wasn’t dreaming it.

“I’m thrilled to be included in a project of this international and historic importance.”

Duffield said the swimmers will rotate through individual legs of 10 to 20 minutes each.

He noted the swim is being supported by the Russian government and will take place at the end of July.

There are West Kelowna youth sleeping on friends’ couches, staying in Kelowna shelters and even living in tents.

It’s an issue that the RCMP, local schools and various social organizations have been trying to improve for quite some time; however, they’re now getting support from several community members.

Home: A public forum regarding homeless youth in West Kelowna.

“In the position I’m in now, and in the summer months that I’m working with general duty members, I’ve certainly become aware of the problem firsthand,” said Sherri Lund, West Kelowna RCMP school liaison officer.

“I think it’s great we’re taking time to recognize these issues of youth homelessness in our community.”

dents gave presentations, which featured interviews of students and teachers, as well as youth who have been in a homeless situation themselves.

During one video presentation, a girl whose name was kept anonymous for privacy reasons, explained what led to her becoming temporarily homeless.

“Things just got really bad with my parents.

We were fighting so much and it just got to the point where, one morning, my dad just put a bunch of my stuff in a suitcase, threw it

outside and said, ‘Get out.’”

Another group of students presented results from a survey they conducted, which indicated one-third of Mount Boucherie students had spent at least three consecutive nights outside of their home due to arguments or other family issues.

Irene Maier, department head of student leadership at Mount Boucherie explained that statistic.

“Obviously, as teen/ parent conflict goes, there is a lot of short-term couch surfing that happens at dif-

Youth shelter is needed

Youth from A1

dent presentations was that West Kelowna is in need of a youth shelter so homeless youth can have a safe place to stay while keeping connected with their community.

Later in the forum, a panel representing the Ministry of Children and Family Development, the Okanagan Boys and Girls

Club, the Canadian Mental Health Association, Now Canada and Kelowna Gospel Mission shared information regarding available services.

Kristy Butterworth of the Boys and Girls Club Westside youth centre said there are several reasons why it’s important to help youth in homeless situations.

“Young people who

successfully transition into adulthood become productive members of their community who pay taxes,” said Butterworth.

Concerned citizens are invited to meet May 16 at 10 a.m. at Westbank United Church to discuss next steps in dealing with the issue. wpaterson @kelownacapnews.com

Locally shot film premiers here

‘‘

Wade Paterson STAFF REPORTER

A dark, made-for-TV film about a teenage romance that turns into a psychotic episode involving accusations of heinous acts probably wouldn’t be high on the “to see” lists of every demographic in the Okanagan.

However, Sepia Films and Landmark Cinemas Xtreme 8 is optimistic tonight’s film premiere of A Mother’s Nightmare will bring out all types of interested viewers.

The film, which was shot in West Kelowna last spring, is being premiered at 5 p.m. Thursday, May 9 at Landmark Cinemas Xtreme 8 as a fundraiser for the Westside Community Food Bank.

It stars Jessica Lowndes of 90210, Grant Gustin of Glee and Annabeth Gish of SLC Punk

THERE WERE MANY RESIDENTS INVOLVED IN THE MAKING OF IT AND IT GIVES THEM, AND THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY, AN OPPORTUNITY TO SEE THEIR WORK… Rick Davis

and Double Jeopardy.

“A Mother’s Nightmare received an amazing amount of support from the Okanagan Film Commission and the community of West Kelowna,” said Andy Holmes of Sepia Films, who was an assistant for director Vic Sarin when the movie was filmed last year.

“We really wanted to give everyone who contributed to the movie a

chance to see it on the big screen.”

Rick Davis, general manager of Landmark Cinemas Xtreme 8, said the premiere will be a chance for locals to spot familiar landmarks and see what was created in their backyard.

“There were many residents involved in the making of it and it gives them, and the entire community, an opportunity to

see their work, as well as prominent West Kelowna locations, on the big screen,” said Davis.

“It made perfect sense to make admission a donation to the Westside Community Food Bank—we were thrilled to find out that the date (that) was chosen for the screening fell within Hunger Awareness Week.”

Sepia Films is in the process of producing A Sister’s Nightmare, which will begin shooting in the Okanagan May 27.

Holmes describes the movie as “a sequel of sorts.” It features Kelly Rutherford (Melrose Place and Gossip Girl) in the lead role.

Tickets for the screening of A Mother’s Nightmare are available on a first-come first-serve basis. They can be picked up in exchange for a non-perishable food item or cash donation to the Westside Community Food Bank at Landmark Cinemas Xtreme 8 prior to the 5 p.m. screening (subject to availability).

The film, which aired in the United States on Oct. 30, 2012, is rated PG. wpaterson @kelownacapnews.com

Tiny Bhutan redefines ‘progress:’ Happiness is where it’s at

M

y parents lived through the Great Depression of the 1930s and were profoundly affected by it. They taught us to work hard to earn a living, live within our means, save for tomorrow, share and not be greedy and help our neighbours because one day we might need their help. Those

homilies and teachings seem quaint in today’s world of credit cards, hyper-consumption and massive debt.

We can’t even imagine a way of living beyond being endlessly occupied with making money to get more stuff to make our lives “easier”.

David Suzuki ly comparing a simpler way with the accelerated societies we’ve created. In the mid-20th century, the tiny Kingdom of Bhutan, hidden deep in

the Himalayas between China and India, emerged from three hundred years of isolation. In 1961, the third king of Bhutan started sending students to schools in India. From there, some went on to Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard and other universities. The first of their nation to encounter Western society after three centuries of separation, those young people clearly saw the contrast in values.

That empowered Bhutan to convene a highlevel meeting. I was delighted when its leaders asked me to serve on a working group charged with defining happiness and well-being, and developing ways to measure these states and strategies. Prime Minister Jigmi Thinley even cited the David Suzuki Foundation’s “Declaration of Interdependence” as an inspiration for the proposal.

The Bhutanese understand that well-being and happiness depend on a healthy environment. They vow to protect 60 per cent of their forest cover, are already carbon-neutral and have vowed to make their entire agriculture sector organic. They have snow leopards, elephants, rhinos, tigers and valleys of tree-sized rhododendrons—and know their happiness depends on protecting them.

priority was not the GNP but GNH—gross national happiness.

Bhutan’s government has since taken the concept of GNH seriously and galvanized thinking around the world with the notion that the economy should serve people, not the other way around.

In July 2011, Bhutan introduced the only resolution it has ever presented at the United Nations. Resolution 65/309 was called “Happiness: towards a holistic approach to development.”

The country’s position was “that the pursuit of happiness is a fundamental human goal” and “that the gross domestic product...does not adequately reflect the happiness and well-being of people.”

The General Assembly passed the resolution unanimously. It was “intended as a landmark step towards adoption of a new global sustainability-based economic paradigm for human happiness and well-being of all life forms to replace the current dysfunctional system that is based on the unsustainable premise of
