s the weather heats up and with summer in full swing, it’s easy to forget about people in need of assistance with putting food on their table. That’s why the Kelowna Community Food Bank is holding its annual Christmas in July campaign, trying to keep awareness up that there are still people who need regular help during the summer. With the program in place again this year, the food bank is looking to hit its fundraising goals, something it hasn’t done in the summer months for the past three years. Reporter Kevin Parnell finds out what is happening this Christmas in July at the Kelowna Community Food Bank. See story on page A3.

CLOSE-UP

No summer break for food bank Kevin Parnell STAFF REPORTER

hen the hot summer sun arrived in Kelowna last weekend, you could see that people were waiting for it. Almost instantly, beaches filled up, downtown sidewalks were busy and the Kelowna crowd was immediately in full summer mode. But at the Kelowna Community Food Bank, it wasn’t summer that they were welcoming, when the calendar turned from June to July and the rain faded into our memory banks. The arrival of July at the food bank means the start of the Christmas in July campaign, an important initiative designed to keep food bank shelves stocked during a time when most people are not thinking about them. “I think that’s the case especially now, when you look at the warm weather we are having, it’s such a beautiful summer,” said Vonnie Lavers, the executive director of the Kelowna Community Food Bank. “So we can understand why people aren’t focused on our work. “That’s why we do

this. To remind people that we take care of people in the community year round.” What the food bank does is partner with businesses to stage Christmas in July, asking local businesses and residents to hold various events around the community to keep up the visibility of the food bank. Beginning in May, the food bank sends out letters to local businesses suggesting events that can be held during the Christmas in July event. “We start to go to our current donors asking them to get involved with the campaign and hold third party events,” said Lavers. “What happens from there is up to the companies, but people jump on board. A lot of companies will have a raffle or a company garage sale or a hot dog sale and they will use our banner and take donations.” This year the food bank has set a goal of raising $50,000 cash as well as 200,000 pounds of food during July. The money is much needed and can turn into much more, according to Lavers, who said the food bank can turn a one dollar donation into three dollars

KELOWNA Community Food Bank volunteer Dieter Hotz, a volunteer for more than six years with the food bank, was handing out staple food items to people in need Wednesday at the food bank. of food with their buying power. Despite what Lavers calls excellent support from the business community, the food bank has fallen short of the its goals during July in each of the past three years. “Part of that is people are out enjoying the summer and their heads are elsewhere,” she said. “We are competing with summer when people are out having fun.

“And there is a lot of competition in the charitable sector here locally. There are lots of people looking for help.” That competition is another reason the food bank is trying to be creative in its fundraising campaigns and partnering with business. Among the initiatives this month is a fill-thetruck event on July 13 and 14 at the Kelowna Walmart parking lot where

people can donate food or cash. Oranj Fitness is organizing what it calls the largest outdoor yoga class July 14, 9:30 a.m. start, at Stuart Park where participants can bring along a food bank donation. And the entrance fee to the Okanagan Caribbean Festival at City Park, July 20, noon to 9 p.m., will be a donation to the food bank. Lavers says even

when the economy struggles, local businesses still find time to help them out. “There are more and more businesses that come on each year,” she said. “As some businesses struggle we are able to find new ones to help us out.” Cash donations and food are also helping the food bank expand its nuSee Summer A4

Calgary food industry steps up to help local food bank clients Although the Kelowna Community Food Bank has been running its Christmas in July campaign for several years, the last three years have seen the food bank fall short of its targeted goals in terms of money and food donations. To make up for that windfall, the Kelowna food bank

has been receiving food from the Calgary Food Bank to help support families in the Kelowna area. This year was no different as the food bank received a shipment of food from Calgary, just prior to the Alberta floods. “We can’t say enough about that support,” said Vonnie

Lavers, Kelowna Community Food Bank executive director. “We just received a much-needed shipment from Calgary prior to the floods. We pass our best wishes on to the great people of Calgary.” Helping smaller food banks across Western Canada is something that the Calgary Food

Bank does on a regular basis, although with the emergency situation in Alberta, demand is much higher locally than in other years. Calgary is able to help out other food banks in part because of the corporate support they receive from companies in the food distribution business.

“Many large food companies are based in Calgary,” said Shawna Ogston, Calgary Food Bank communications coordinator. “We benefit from strong industry support and our corporate partners ask that the surplus food goes where it is needed most.”

Fun ways to help those in need

There are many ways individuals and businesses can help the Kelowna Community Food Bank get through its lean summer months as part of the Christmas in July campaign as the food bank looks for either food or cash donations. A straight $250 cash donation will get your name entered for a draw to win two WestJet vouchers to anywhere the carrier flies as well as a draw for a gift basket. Here are some other ways to support the food bank • Purchase Buy BC coupons at the check-out of your local grocery store. • For a monthly commitment of $35, you can help fill a kids tummy with the No Hungry Children campaign. • Watch for the food bank’s food runners van at local grocery stores and help fill it with healthy food for children and families. Ideas for workers and businesses to raise food bank items or cash: • Golf tournament • Bowling tournament • Beach volleyball tournament • Tennis tournament • Pledge sheet event (walk-a-thon, bike-a-thon) • Raffle for an employee (day off with pay) • Lunch money day (brown bag it and donate money usually spent on lunch) • Garage sale • Hold a food drive in neighbourhood or at workplace.

Target zeros in on July 16 opening date Alistair Waters ASSISTANT EDITOR

Kelowna’s newest department store has a target date for opening— July 16. Officials with the Canadian arm of Target—the giant American retailer currently making a massive move into the Canadian marketplace after buying hundreds of properties that used to house Zellers stores—were in Kelowna Thursday to show off the company’s newest outlet and announce the opening date. Lisa Gibson, spokeswoman for Target in Canada, said the 90,000-square-foot Orchard Plaza location—expanded by about one-third from its days as a Zellers store—is currently having the finishing touches put

on it in preparation for the upcoming opening. “We are very excited to be opening here,” she said. Inside the store is very similar to Target outlets across the United States and in other parts of Canada. Its wide, clear aisles, bright colours and lack of canned music, are all ways that the store plans to keep its shoppers minds on the task at hand— shopping. “Our focus is on having a distraction-free shopping experience,” said Gibson. The Kelowna store is part of the third of five “waves” of store openings for Target in Canada as it makes its initial foray outside of the United States. The local store will have a staff of 127 and is

the 48th of an estimated 127 stores Target plans to open in Canada this year. Carrying some brands familiar to Canadian buyers, such as Roots, Beaver Canoe and the Cherokee clothing line, which was available at Zellers, new lines in other departments that up to now were only available in the U.S., will also be introduced. In addition to clothing for the whole family, the store will carry electronics, children’s games, make-up, housewares, seasonal goods, books, sports equipment, home and garden supplies and even groceries. The large grocery department, which will use Eastern Canadian grocery store chain Sobey’s as its source for products, will not, however, carry fresh produce. Recognizing the large seniors’ population here, shoppers at the Kelowna store will be offered the use of wheelchairs and instore scooters. While the new store will have a Starbucks coffee shop it will not include a restaurant. Gibson said some

items offered here will be priced on par with U.S. stores, while others will have the Canadian markup price. The Kelowna store, which had a 36,000-square-foot addition added to its south end along Springfield Road, will have a design feature no other Target store in the country has—an illuminated glass section of wall facing Springfield

that will make it more visible to passing traffic, especially at night. Last year, Target announced it had bought 220 former Zellers locations across Canada and planned to turn about 130 into Target stores. Some of the remaining stores were sold to competitor Walmart, while others may one day become Target stores. Gibson said the com-

pany is spending an average of $10 million per store to renovate them for the first five waves of openings. The average size Target store in Canada is 114,000-squarefeet. In this region, Target

is opening stores in Kelowna, Kamloops, Vernon and Penticton. The company did not buy the larger former home of Zellers in West Kelowna. That particular store closed in March. awaters@kelownacapnews.com

assault occurred. According to Const. Kris Clark, police are not labelling the individual as a suspect; rather, simply a person with whom the police would like to speak. The man is described as Caucasian, in his early 30s, five-foot-eight with a thin build and unkempt

appearance. He was last seen wearing baggy, tapered black pants, a grey hoodie with a circular design and light coloured running shoes. Anyone with any information regarding this man’s identity is asked to call Const. McBride of the Kelowna RCMP at 250-

Barbecue to raise funds for Alberta flood relief Wade Paterson STAFF REPORTER

A new West Kelowna residential care home is teaming up with a local Italian club to help victims of the Alberta flooding. Lakeview Lodge, along with the Okanagan chapter of the Canadian Order of Sons of Italy, will host In the Loop for Alberta floods relief July 10 from 4 to 7 p.m.

Becky Marlatt, general manager of Lakeview Lodge, said the Alberta disaster hit home for many of the Lakeview Lodge residents. “We have residents who have family in Alberta,” said Marlatt, adding Albertan tourists are a major benefit to our local economy. “We’ve seen how hard hit they were and how many billions of dollars

worth of damage there is.” Although residents of Alberta have been quick to lend a hand to those who were affected by the flooding, Marlatt said it’s important for B.C. to also lend a hand to our provincial neighbour. “At our residential care home, instead of floors we call them neighbourhoods; we take being neighbours really seriously.

Language mystery resolved UBC Okanagan professor Christine Schreyer can finally disclose her secret identity. The linguist and anthropologist served as a consultant for the hit Hollywood blockbuster Man of Steel, and helped

develop the Kryptonian language for the movie. Given that the Warner Bros.’ $225-million Man of Steel is a reboot for the Superman celluloid story, the producers wanted an authentic new language for Superman’s doomed

home world of Krypton. “They wanted to respect the canon, but come up with something new,” said Schreyer, who set about doing exactly that—after signing a confidentiality agreement in August 2011 that she

would not reveal her Man of Steel role until after the movie’s opening week. On the big screen, Schreyer’s Kryptonian symbols appear throughout Man of Steel, among crests on costumes, scripted onto weapons, emblazoned on the mysterious Codex and inscribed on bulkheads, and on the exterior of Kryptonian spaceships. “Kryptonian has never been spoken in a movie— but now there is a created language,” said Schreyer, an assistant professor with the Irving K. Barber School of Arts and Sciences. Schreyer has taught a course which examines created languages and her students studied the languages invented by other linguists such as Star Trek’s Klingon language and the Na’vi language devised for Avatar. The Na’vi project captured global interest with a strong social media following of fans who did not speak each other’s tongue but communicated in Na’vi as their only shared language. An August 2011 newspaper story about her Na’vi project caught the eye of Man of Steel’s production designer, Alex McDowell, who happened to be in Vancouver working on another project, and he contacted her. “Alex brought me in to consult,” said Schreyer, who found herself quickly whisked to Mammoth Studios in Burnaby and she visited the set of Krypton, Superman’s home world. The movie was already into production and Schreyer worked alongside graphic designer Kirsten Franson, who developed the Kryptonian script based on Schreyer’s suggestions, which were influenced from her

Hydro fiscal issues charges up NDP leader Alistair Waters ASSISTANT EDITOR

As his party’s candidate in the Westside-Kelowna byelection prepared to go head-to-head with Premier Christy Clark in the first of two all-candidates’ debates Thursday night, NDP leader Adrian Dix came to Kelowna to blast Clark and her Liberal government for what he called the “mismanagement” of B.C. Hydro. Dix and NDP candidate Carole Gordon met with the media hours before the debate, saying it’s telling that while Clark said recently she was personally holding down rate increases for B.C. Hydro customers, her energy minister, Bill Bennett, was saying publicly “everyone” in government recognizes rates are going to have to go up because of B.C. Hydro’s growing debt. The reason for that growing debt is, in part, cost overruns associated with the Northwest Transmission Line, a project approved by the B.C. Hydro board before the last provincial election. The board, said Dix, is made up of Liberal Party appointees, including Kelowna’s own Brad Bennett (no relation to the energy minister), who acted as a close advisor to Clark during the election campaign. Also, Clark’s current

chief of staff was the interim head of B.C. Hydro when the transmission line project was approved by the board. “What Liberal leadership means is incompetence and misleading actions,” said Dix, adding it will be especially hard on West Kelowna residents as they are served by B.C. Hydro. (Residents in Kelowna are served by FortisBC.) Gordon said she is now starting to hear concerns about a $342-million cost overrun of the Northwest Transmission Line project from residents on the doorstep as she campaigns in the byelection. Dix said the overrun is in addition to $4.3 billion of debt B.C. Hydro has racked up, which he accused the government of trying to hide through its use of deferral accounts. The B.C. Hydro debt issue is the second major black eye for the new Liberal government since it won a surprising comefrom-behind victory over the NDP in the May 14 provincial election. Shortly after winning re-election, Clark raised the salaries of top bureaucrats but was forced to back off the plan following a public outcry. The government had campaigned on a promise to reduce provincial spending. In the election, Clark led her party to a major-

She is running in the Westside-Kelowna byelection against Gordon and six other candidates and looking to replace Ben Stewart who won the seat for the Liberals on May 14. The first of two all-candidates debates was scheduled for last light with a second, to be held this morning (Friday) at the Streaming Cafe in Kelowna. (Full coverage of both debates will appear on the Capital News website, kelownacapnews.com, as both were scheduled to be held after today’s deadline.) Heading into the Thursday evening debate, both Clark and Gordon said they were ready to speak directly to voters but both realized, with eight people in the race, the amount of time they would have to get their points across would be limited. Dix said while he was in town to help Gordon campaign Thursday afternoon and this morning, he did not plan to attend the debate so as to keep the spotlight on Gordon

Misting Systems 101…..

As we transition from the June monsoon season to July’s heat wave, one asks…is there a way to stay cool on our deck or patio? Yes there is. Install a misting system and you will wonder why you didn’t do it sooner. There are many types of misting systems available. Depending on how big an area you need to cover will determine the correct system required. One great way to get started is with a DIY (Do-It-Yourself) Patio Misting System. A DIY kit will give you the basic materials required to set up a simple and easy to use misting system that can be installed in a matter of hours and enjoyed while sitting on your deck or patio. Lets look at how misting systems work? High pressure misting is one of the most effective and efficient methods available for cooling open outdoor areas. Mist cooling works by forcing water through specially designed misting nozzles to create a fog of ultra fine water droplets. The water droplets quickly evaporate which then in turn cool the surrounding air. When properly designed, a mist cooling system will work with prevailing winds and air movement. A misting system can be combined with misting fans to move mist or cooled air into the cooled zones. In most cases a misting system will reduce temperatures by as much as 8-10 degrees with the use of fans to facilitate evaporation. There are many applications for Misting systems: agriculture, commercial, restaurants, hospitality, industrial, residential and even special effects. For more information on how to utilize misting systems and advice on how to properly setup and install your own, please stop by the store and talk to any of our great staff.

Pumped up job titles at city hall

To the editor: Walter Gray needs to put on his big boy pants and quit whining. As mayor of this city, Mr Gray, you should understand it is definitely in our interests to know where our tax payer dollars go, even if it is on the embarrassingly high salaries of your employees. As a public figure and our leader, it is your job to share information about where our money is being spent. More ridiculous than the high salaries are the titles of some of these positions that tell us nothing. What is a Corporate Sustainability GM? What does a Strategic Initiatives Department Manager do? What about Airport Director? I’d be interested in seeing those job descriptions as I smell duplication all over the place. And why do we need to pay a Communications Director over $120,000 when we have a mayor, a city clerk and eight city councillors to disperse information when needed?

Premier Clark has resumed Campbell arrogance

all it the Beach Blanket Budget. Despite having to campaign once again to win a seat in a byelection, Premier Christy Clark has ordered the legislature to sit without her through most of July to pass the budget that was tabled before the election. This rare summer session ensures a couple of things. First, there will be less time for real financial results to contradict the rosy predictions made by Finance Minister Mike de Jong in February. Second, it ensures that there will be minimum public attention paid to the deliberations, as people focus on their summer vacations and put the business

of running the province aside again. B.C. Liberal house leader Mike de Jong insists there has been no decision made on whether the legislature Tom will sit again in the fall. Fletcher The standard schedule, put in place under former premier Gordon Campbell, calls for MLAs to assemble in October and November, to consider legislation, after a spring devoted to the budget and ministry spending. This was a serious reform that went along with four-year scheduled elections. But Campbell soon abandoned this noble approach, with fall sessions dwindling to a few days to deal with urgent issues or disappearing altogether. I expected Clark to reverse that after

VICTORIA VIEWS

she led the party to victory in May and consigned the Campbell era to the history books. Open, accountable government and all that. So why the summer session? I’m inclined to agree with NDP house leader John Horgan, who meets privately with de Jong in his role of government house leader to thrash out schedules. Here’s Horgan’s message to Clark and her government as he emerged from the latest meeting: “You ran on a platform that you claimed you were ready to implement. And what we’re getting instead is, ‘let’s jam ’em in here while the media’s on holidays, while people are at the beach thinking about other things. We’ll pass our bogus budget and then we’ll see you in February’.” Is the budget accurate, or “bogus,” or somewhere in between? They’re al-

ways projections, so that can’t be determined until next year. But the proposal to keep the increase in overall spending to less than two per cent, with nearly all the increase going to health and education, is difficult to accept. During his time, Campbell topped the Fraser Institute’s ranking of most fiscally responsible premiers, limiting spending growth to 4.4 per cent. During those same years, average provincial economic growth was only 4.1 per cent, meaning that under the supposedly tight-fisted, tax-cutting Campbell, government continued to grow to more than 20 per cent of gross domestic product. Clark has indicated several times since her surprise election win that she intends to make government smaller.

City not disclosing winning bid numbers To the editor: We have recently submitted several requests for quotes to the City of Kelowna. We were notified we were not the successful bidder, however, in my experience, all results were disclosed after the process and this is definitely not the case. I am wondering, what

safeguards are in place that our quoted prices are kept in confidence and not shared with a preferential vendor? I seem to see the same vendor consistently winning bids based on the low bid. How does the city know that they are paying less because a lower quality, higher maintenance

solution isn’t being implemented? As a paying taxpayer, I would like to understand this process and hopefully see some transparency implemented to the process as it gives a single individual too much power to say yeah or nay and not be accountable to all bidding parties.

If a bid is under $75,000, then technically the guy requesting the quote could share prices and make sure his friend got all the jobs. I would like to see changes to this system. I know percentages well enough that we should have won at least one of the multitude of

projects we have quoted. Additionally, how do we know quotes are being compared apples to apples? In the Okanagan this is very important—as important as GMO. Mike Lone, Kelowna

Canada’s economy: Follow the money To the editor: Having read Ms. Varga’s letter to the editor on July 2 (Don’t Be Alarmed Over B.C.’s Debt Clock), I find it interesting that some individuals think that there is a “good debt” and a “bad deb.” To me, this is like saying that there is “good”

cancer and there is “bad” cancer. Unfortunately, in both situations, if you only treat the symptoms and not the root cause the outcome is most likely to be bad. In the case of a cancer, or other life threatening disease, it means the end of a life.

In the case of debt, it means the end of the economy and a lifestyle to which we have all grown accustomed to, especially for future generations, your kids and mine. As to the latter, debt, there are many problematic symptoms out there to which we tend to dir-

ect almost all of our focus, and pay virtually no attention at all to its root cause, which is not that complex. Time and space prevent me from going into much detail here but, suffice to say, if you really want to know more about the root cause of debt, whether it is public debt (government),

or private debt (individual and commercial), spend some time on finding the answer to the following question: “Who creates ‘money,’ and how is it created?” Grant Baudais, Kelowna

To the editor: Marijuana use in this country is a sad addiction for many of our young adults and, unbelievably, a frequent-use addiction for too many middle-aged adults. The loss of health, ambition, enterprise and intestinal fortitude in those

who abuse this drug is incalculable. Studies show marijuana remains in your system for three weeks after use, and can even affect your genetic makeup adversely, so as to damage the health of future generations. I don’t support the

legalization of marijuana nor will I ever do so. I do support the all-out war the police carry on against the grow operations that supply addicts with this insidious drug and the use of our tax dollars to do so. Marcia Lawrence, West Kelowna

Salary payers must know what we’re paying City Hall from A10 As for whining about how we don’t require the same sort of information from private sector companies, I am shocked, Mr Gray, that as a former

▼ MAKING GOVERNMENT SMALLER

Debate should be in public Fletcher from A10 That’s the difference between her “core review” of government programs and the one conducted by Campbell in the painful first years of his mandate. This is why I mentioned last week that one of the more significant instructions given to Clark’s cabinet ministers was to examine turning the Li-

quor Distribution Branch into a separate corporation with its own board of directors. That in itself may slightly increase the size of government. But it could be a preliminary step to selling the whole thing off and reducing the government’s role to taxing and regulating booze sales. You can imagine how

that would go over with the NDP, with former liquor store union boss George Heyman among the loudest opposition MLAs. This is the kind of change that should be debated in public, not by press release. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

NEWS ▼ XERISCAPING

Sweet smelling lavender thrives under Okanagan sun L avender is one of my favourite xeriscape plants. Thriving in our hot dry summers, it blooms abundantly from late June for about four weeks. Deadheading encourages repeat bloom at summer’s end. Being evergreen, lavender looks good year round providing winter interest in the landscape. The foliage emits its calming fragrance when touched so is great planted beside walkways. A bonus, the fragrant foliage makes it unappetizing to deer. Its flowers attract butterflies, bees and other pollinators. Lavender likes welldrained soil. I’ve grown it

GARDENING WITH NATURE

Gwen Steele for many years in my dry, sandy garden without any supplemental water after the first year. Native to the Mediterranean, it grows naturally in rocky locations so can tolerate the heat given off by rock mulch. It does best in full sun. Lavender needs little maintenance. When flowers are finished, stems are cut off flush with the foliage. Long-bladed shears

do the job quickly. Plants can be shaped at this time by shearing back some foliage. This encourages new leaves to grow on bare stems and keeps plants compact. Up to one-third of the foliage may be cut off. Cutting more than this could damage or kill the plant. In the fall, flower stems from the second bloom can be cut off or left until spring. Cut out deadwood in spring. Old, misshapen lavenders may be beyond rejuvenation and need to be replaced. There are many varieties available. Choose one to fit your space. A dwarf variety, Lavendula angustifolia ‘Blue

Cushion’ grows 12 to 18 inches high and wide. A mid-sized variety, L. ‘Hidcote, has been used effectively along the new cycle/walk corridor on Cawston Avenue. Lavendula x intermedia varieties grow to three feet high and wide. When mature, they have striking silver foliage and long-stemmed blooms. This spring Lavendula x intermedia ‘Grosso’ was planted as a low hedge in the new waterwise garden at St. Michael’s Cathedral, 608 Sutherland Ave. Lavender is a subshrub, growing from a single woody stem. It cannot be divided. Some lavender plants produce

seedlings, however, they may not be the same as the parent. To get an identical plant, propagation must be done from cuttings. Great companion plants for lavender include sedums, especially the tall, late-blooming varieties such as ’Autumn Joy’ and ‘Matrona’ and dark, burgundy-leaved ‘Postman’s Pride.’ Deep-yellow flowers of Achillea ‘Moonshine’ yarrow or Coreopsis ‘Golden Gain’ provide a

good colour contrast. Silvery-grey leaves of blue oat grass provide a good foliage texture contrast. To find more plants that like the same conditions, check the plant database at www.okanaganxeriscape.org. Select ‘dry’ and ‘full sun.’ Lavender blooms can be used to make sachets, wands, eye pillows, teas and essential oils. Lavender has many medicinal uses. To learn more about

lavender, and see many varieties that thrive here, visit Okanagan Lavender Herb Farm. They have a beautiful demonstration garden, serve tea, teach lavender crafts and have a delightful shop. Check www.okanaganlavender.com for information and special events. Gwen Steele is executive director of the non-profit Okanagan Xeriscape Association. www.okanaganxeriscape.org

Tomatoes are a great start for learning how to grow veggies

y tomato plants are happy. Bring on the sun! This is why we can grow some of the best crops in Canada right here in the Okanagan such as peppers, beans, potatoes and corn. More and more, families are planting edible gardens and there are several reasons for this. First, it gives us great satisfaction to “pick” something from our back yard, or front yard for that matter, and serve it on the table. As we have become accustomed to “picking” everything we eat at the grocery store, this is such a change moving back to what it was like just a few decades ago. When I was growing up, most families had vegetable gardens and

FROM THE GROUND UP

Don Burnett many had chickens. While I’m not advocating chickens in the city today, I do encourage growing vegetables. If the sheer joy of growing your own isn’t enough, perhaps saving some money, great physical exercise, knowing what goes into your food and taste that cannot be found anywhere else might get you enthused. If you have never grown anything before, you might start with tomatoes. The first two things you need are a sunny spot with at least six to eight hours a day of direct sun, and some decent soil. If you are not blessed with good “dirt,” then raised beds are the answer with imported soil. Most garden centres have a blended product suitable for this purpose and other than topping up with compost each year it is a one-time expense. Another way to do it if you have limited space is to grow your tomatoes and peppers in five-gallon pots using a good commercial potting soil such as Sunshine #1. Once you have mastered growing tomatoes, you can expand your horizons to just about anything you can eat. I f you have the space, get real serious and grow enough for winter storage. A root cellar is a fabulous way to store many crops however, freezing is

perhaps more practical for today’s gardener. If I have tweaked your interest in growing a garden, don’t until next year to get started—there is plenty of time to plant this summer and vegetable transplants are still in stock at most garden centres. ••• Speaking of pride in gardening, I am a big supporter of the Communities in Bloom program which recognizes the efforts of homeowners, tenants, businesses and institutions for creating beauty spots throughout the community. The slogan “people plants and pride” captures the essence of the program. The Kelowna Communities in Bloom committee recognizes various areas around the city that it believe to be a “A Kelowna Beauty Spot.” The latest is a home on Bernard Avenue, which has like others along the 700 and 800 blocks of the street, been preserved as one of Kelowna’s heritage homes and converted to a business. Darlene and Duane Habuza, of 763 Bernard Ave., purchased the home in 2005. This home was built and lived in by the Muirhead family dating back to 1910. The Habuzas operate their business, Country Cottage Gifts & Décor, from this beautifully restores Queen Anne house. Congratulations to them on a job well done.

Trews at Keloha; living art at KAG Jennifer Smith STAFF REPORTER

When Keloha kicks off Friday evening fans of top Canadian rockers The Trews will be treated to one of their only shows this season. The Nova Scotia natives will likely spend most of their summer recording a new album and enjoying family— John-Angus MacDonald just got married last September, Jack Syperek had a second baby—with only a handful of festival stops. The fun part about a Trews album is that no two are ever alike and there’s a chance those hitting the beach for this second shot at the new Keloha festival might get a hint of what’s to come. “It’s still the same four people making the music, but we always try to take it to a new place,” said John-Angus, one of the two MacDonalds in the band.

Sharing the stage with his brother Colin (vocals, guitar, keyboard), cousin Sean Dalton (drums) and friend Jack Syperek—all together since high school—their work is a truly collaborative process, according to John-Angus, who serves as frontman for the group. They keep the work fresh by moving from producers like Gordie Johnson (Big Sugar), who produced their breakout album House of Ill Fame, to hot-ticket producer Jack Douglas (John Lennon, Alice Cooper, Aerosmith), to Gordie Sinclair of the Tragically Hip. “It really helps to make us excited again and be in a new creative partnership each time we go out,” John-Angus said. Needless to say, their decade-plus success story has brought accolades, including Juno nominations, East Coast Music Award wins and In-

dependent Music Award wins; but the unlabelled, almst non-brandable quality that’s made them a success might just as easily have been overlooked by a music industry that hinges on marketability. “Radio had a lot to do with (our success). Radio really embraced our first album and then it was just the abundance of touring we did,” said John-Angus, noting he wouldn’t have bet on the band from the outset. They are, nevertheless, among the big headliners at a festival with plenty of top acts this weekend. Keloha will see Mutemath, MGMT, Shad, Capital Cities and the Arkells, to name but a few, take the stage for a second summer in a row beginning Friday, July 5 and running through Sunday July 7 at Waterfront Park. •••

ROSE COLOURED GLASSES

The latest installation art piece in the Kelowna Art Gallery’s inner courtyard is coming up roses for one local artists. Kyle Zsombor has just revealed his new creation and says he’s over the hump of worrying the living display, A Green Desire, will wilt under the weight of inexperience with the materials or lofty design. “I’m a perfectionist. I look at every single little thing and I make sure I’m okay with it before I let it go,” said Zsombor. “This is about letting go for me.” It’s also about letting things grow and die off and take unexpected twists and turns and maybe even come out an entirely different colour than listed on the label. With the Kelowna Art Gallery launching its courtyard garden installation series this spring, Zsombor is the first per-

Begging for the end of The End; can’t get enough Johnson BOB JAMES & DAVID SANBORN: QUARTETTE HUMAINE (OKEH)

Jazz pianist Bob James and sax player David Sanborn won a Grammy for their last collaboration titled Double Vision way back in 1986. They have teamed up again with the venerable rhythm section of Steve Gadd on drums and James Genus on bass for an album that is live off the floor and all acoustic. My ears are used to hearing James play an electric Rhodes piano like the 73 year old has been using for decades, but on Quartette Humaine James is tickling the keys of a Yamaha CFIII concert grand piano. Meanwhile, 68-yearold crossover jazz/pop/ rock saxman Sanborn (who has worked for the likes of David Bowie, Paul Butterfield, Stevie Wonder and many more) is much more playful on these free flowing studio sessions than he has been when doing session work for pop constructs. James wrote four of the pieces here to Sanborn’s three, while they offer a fluid cover of Sam Coslow’s classic My Old Flame from the 1930s (his other best known song was Cocktails For Two

ples Blondie, but there is little else of interest here. The ‘highlight’ new song is Snoop Dogg’s Take Your Panties Off (a recurring silk screen emblem on one of the actor’s T-shirts) while moldy oldies include hits and near hits from Norman Greenbaum, Whitney Houston, Funkadelic and Cypress Hill. You lose nothing by ignoring this completely unnecessary soundtrack. C-

SOUNDING OFF

Bruce Mitchell which was forever murdered by the brilliant and uproarious Spike Jones). The closing track is the ‘featured’ song Deep In The Weeds where James/Sanborn and co. play around with a little light Latin funk in the rhythmic underpinning. True to form Quartette Humaine made its debut at the lofty No. 5 spot on the jazz charts proving their staying power while James also provides the cool art work for the CD liner. Old fans will enjoy. B

ANGIE JOHNSON: SING FOR YOU (SONY)

Angie Johnson is a staff sergeant in the US military but she is also a terrific singer and after her unfairly short stint on The Voice, a Nashville high mucky muck executive contacted Johnson to get her to record this introductory four song EP. Sing For You really whets the appetite for her full length album to be released later this year.

THIS IS THE END: SOUNDTRACK (RCA)

The film did extremely well at the box office and maybe you saw This is The End and really liked it, but there is no need to buy or download this tepid biscuit. The soundtrack comes stickered as: “The Official Soundtrack To The Apocalypse,” but it is little more than a boys

night out mix tape with a sprinkling of vintage hip hop, R&B, pop and whatever the Backstreet Boys qualify as. There are huge hits

Johnson proves her country-rock chops on the guitar-driven and heavy snare drum party track Swagger, while the rootsy and sultry Grandpa’s Farm is also beguiling. But the song that is really making people sit up and notice is her poignant EP title track Sing For You that she cowrote and tells the true story of a soldier’s suicide

after an inability to handle his PTSD. Touching stuff that makes one look forward to future projects. Meanwhile, you can check out her semi-viral covers of Journey and Adele songs on YouTube while her ‘Kickstart” fund raising so far is pretty impressive. Bmooseman19@telus.net

Art requires frequent visits Living Art from A18 son in the space to experiment with a living work of art and, as wonderful as this organic, botanical experiment may be, it’s not for the faint of heart or the puritanical gallery enthusiast. “Usually you’re not supposed to touch the work and you’re certainly not supposed to smell it,” said Zsombor. “So this is really different for a gallery.” With columns of strawberries rising to a wall of foliage, he’s hoping to see art lovers settle in, grab some fruit to munch on and enjoy a little downtime to talk about what they’ve seen in the gallery. This is another key difference in this work. Unlike another installation one might leave in place, Zsombor will be in checking the work, replacing plants, trimming, feeding, and watching the work take shape.

“Never before would I go to the gallery and hang out and just watch how people are reacting. You would never ever do that, it would be so pretentious,” he said. Zsombor has shown locally at the Ecotone festivals—in all of their various incarnations—at the Vernon Public Art Gallery (a solo show) and he has work in private collections. Graduating from UBCO with his BFA, one might think his world view limited to the Okanagan, but this show pushed him well outside the box on every front. Having never even seen a green wall, he researched how to use pvc plastic tubing to build the frame then sheet the project in plastic and chloroplast. Ordinary black sheets of felt from Fabricland are then watered and fertilized to support the plants as the medium for them to grow without dirt.

To catch A Green Desire one can attend the art gallery any time between now and next spring as the show will last a full year. It is expected it will like-

ly be dormant over winter, althought the artist has designed a light display for that time period. jsmith@kelownacapnews.com Tweet: @jaswrites

What to expect from chiropractors

CONTRIBUTED

DONATION…

Thanks to SYNLawn Okanagan, playing outside just got a whole lot better for the children attending the YMCA’s Little Scholars Day Care and Preschool. A two phase project providing synthetic grass to both of the playgrounds at the daycare located at Okanagan College has just been completed. SYNLawn Okanagan, the primary contributor, also championed the project in the community and secured additional support and volunteer hours from Kelowna Sand & Gravel, Eljay Irrigation, BFI Canada—Kelowna, Winn Rentals and Redline Bobcat. “A growing number of parks and preschools are choosing synthetic grass for their playgrounds to allow more opportunities for kids to be active. This project is a perfect way for us to give back to our community. It is great seeing big smiles as the kids run and play outside,” said Rene Bourgault, with SYNLawn Okanagan, shown above in photo with kids from the Little Scholars facility.

FINAL E WEEKEND IN

fter each one of my columns is published in the Capital News, I receive about 20 to 50 emails with questions. These emails, which I happily receive, seem to have a common theme: “Can a doctor of chiropractic help me with…”. There are many misconceptions on what a doctor of chiropractic does. Let me explain what a chiropractor does and does not do. A doctor of chiropractic goes to school for a minimum of seven years. After which the successful graduate must pass rigorous federal and provincial licensing examinations in order to practice. As an aside, there are two chiropractic colleges in Canada. On average, OUR there are 1,600 applicants

ASK DR.THIEL

Markus Thiel for 125 positions. There is a misconception that a doctor of chiropractic concerns themselves with just neck and back pain. This is not true. In my clinic, I treat people from two days old to 97 years of age. I treat patients with maladies from asthma to colic, from bed-wetting to PMS, and most things in between. Yes, we do neck and back pain, but that isn’t even what we do best. Chiropractic is an art and a science concerning itself with the optimization of the body’s ability

to express health. I believe the body has in innate, or inborn intelligence. If we are cut, we clot. If we are dehydrated, we perceive a sense of thirst. If our body temperature is low, we warm up. All these reactions take place because of our innate intelligence. All these complicated reactions take place without our conscious input or knowledge of their procedures. The body and its wonders are infinite. Look at birth or how the body heals a fracture. The body’s brilliance is what called me to chiropractic. I thought that we were not born drug deficient and with too many organs. Rather, I believe that the body has an ability to heal itself and that is what we should focus on. Sir William Osler, one of Canada’s most noted physicians, said, “One of the first duties of the physician is to educate the masses not to take medicine.” Yes, there are times when medication is necessary and I am thankful it is available to us. But medication should not always be your first line of action. If I break an arm or have a cavity, the chiropractor is not my first choice. We are more about overall wellness and optimizing your body’s health through restoring normal function. A proper doctor of chiropractic concerns

themselves with lifestyle, diet, exercise and over all well being. We are true ‘wellness’ doctors. We believe the nervous system is the grand controller of all things from your immune sysK tem to your digestion, energy, vitality and over- S all welfare. If there is in interruption in the communica- a tion between your nerv- m ous system (your boss) S and your systems (your w workers), we find it, fix C it and allow your body to w express optimal health. o We believe in being n partners with you in your b pursuit of health. We can- f not fix anything, the body does. We just remove the S e interference. That is what differen- a tiates us from medical or B t allopathic medicine. We work with your o body in a minimally in- l vasive minimally iatro- v o genic way. Thomas Edison wrote: “The doctor of the a future will give no medi- s cine, but will interest her D or his patients in the care v of the human frame, in h a proper diet, and in the s cause and prevention of i disease.” The wellness is within us all, it is a matter of unlocking it and allowing it to do what it is supposed to…provide you with a r lifetime of health. We were all born with w it. It seems, well, only nat- R ural. Chiropractors are a just one part of the Quequaeentt tion. Boxt Markus Thiel is&a doctor of chiropractic.

STAFF REPORTER

The player evaluations are done and just over 70 members of the Okanagan Sun will begin the trek towards the B.C. Football Conference season this weekend as the Sun kick off training camp with fitness testing and workouts before practises start in full force next week. New head coach Shane Beatty has 72 players in camp this weekend and expects to enter the BCFC season with about that number, depending on surprises or players leaving the team in advance of the Sun’s season opener on July 27. “I’m really excited about the upcoming season,” said Beatty, hired in December to try and revive a Sun franchise that has struggled in past seasons. “Everything is coming to fruition. It’s been a

experience at the NCAA level as well as NAIA and the junior game. He is also a strength coach and has recruited hard since being named the Sun head coach. He says the team should have a great offense and solid defensive secondary this season. “Our offense should be really good,” he said. “We have three good running backs, our offensive line is much bigger and

this might be the best defensive secondary I’ve been around. We’re deep, experienced and fast.” There is also competition for the quarterback job as Cam Bedore is back for a second season and will battle for snaps with newcomer Theo Deezar, a 6-foot-5 QB from Winnipeg. “With these two guys in camp it’s going to be a great one-two punch,” said Beatty. “There’s going to be competition for the job and competition breeds success.” Beatty also said his wide receiving corps is very deep and talented as well. The new head coach says players will be put through fitness testing and workouts this weekend before practices start full steam ahead on Monday where Beatty will begin to implement the systems he wants to run in his first

season coaching the Sun. “We have already evaluated the kids at our spring camp and by watching film so we know what they can do,” he said. ‘Now we’re just ready to get going. We will start with going over some fundamentals before we start to put in the systems we’re going to play.” With speed at what seems like every offensive position, a bigger offensive line and a good secondnary, the blocks are all there to return the Sun to prominence in the BCFC, said Beatty. “Really I think we can put some numbers up on the offensive side,” he said. “I think we will be very explosive and I think we will be able to compete with anyone.” The Sun open the season July 27 at the Apple Bowl against the Chilliwack Huskers. kparnell@kelownacapnews.com

Warriors’ Pope drafted by Red Wings

Rockets pick Swiss

West Kelowna Warriors forward David Pope was drafted by the Detroit Red Wings on Sunday as the Wings made Pope their fourth round selection, picking Pope with the 109th selection at the draft. Pope is the third Warrior in seven years of existence to be drafted to the NHL, joining Edmonton Oiler Justin Schultz, and Cam Reid who was drafted by the Nashville Predators and currently plays for the Milwaukee Admirals of the AHL. “It really is a dream come true,” said Pope. “Detroit was my favorite team growing up, and (Pavel) Datsyuk is my

The Kelowna Rockets selected a young Swiss centre with its only pick in the CHL’s annual import draft, held on Wednesday. Picking 59th out of the 60 teams in the draft, Kelowna opted for youth, selecting 17-year-old Kris Schmidli, a 5-foot-10 centre who played junior as well as International games in Switzerland last season. Rockets general manager Bruce Hamilton said the team could have taken an older player but with the roster situation, going with a 17-year-old was the right move. “There were some 1994 (birth year) players that we could have

favorite player. When you get drafted by a team like Detroit that really means a lot. I know I have to work hard, and hopefully become the player they envision me becoming.” Pope was a dominating forward in the BCHL last season. At 6-foot-3 and 195 pounds, he will return for his third season with the Warriors this fall, already armed with a a scholarship to Nebraska-Omaha for 201415. Pope notched 17 goals, and 22 assists on 42 games with West Kelowna last year. A former Warriors player also heard his name called at the draft

as defenceman Ben Betker, who now plays for the Everett Silvertips of the WHL, was drafted by the Edmonton Oilers in the sixth round (158 overall). “It was a real exciting day,” said Betker, the 6-foot-5 blueliner. “I’m looking forward to going to Oil Country. It’s still a long road ahead but it’s a marathon not a sprint, and I’m looking forward to the challenge ahead.” Betker is being flown into Edmonton this week to meet with Oilers brass. In 59 games with the Warriors in 2011-12 Ben had 5 goals, 13 assists, and 52 penalty minutes.

taken but we decided on a younger player,” said Rockets GM Bruce Hamilton. “He fits in an age group where we needed players.” Schmidli played in Zurich last season at the elite junior A level, scoring five goals and five assists in 27 games. He also played 13 International games with the Swiss U-17 team, scoring once and adding a pair of helpers. The Rockets only made one of their possible two selections at the draft as Swedish import Henrik Nyberg is coming back for his second WHL season.

Ogopogos outshine competitors Martin wins pentathlon Things heated up last weekend for the Ogopogo summer swim team, as they competed in the 66th annual Kelowna summer swim meet. Over the years, the Kelowna swim meet has become one of the largest summer swim meets in the Okanagan Region, and manages to attract swimmers from the entire province. However, despite the vast amount of talent that attends the meet, the Kelowna Ogopogos outshined all other competitors, winning

their home meet with more than a 1,000-point lead. “I am very proud of how all of our swimmers did this weekend. Every single person on the team stepped up, and it’s always great to see a team really come together,” said co-head coach Greg Laughlin of the Ogopogo summer swim club. While the landslide victory is the result of a collective effort from the entire Ogopogo team, there were some stand out swims this weekend, in-

Eleven swim team members won aggregate awards with Kyra McNulty leading the way on the girl’s side, shattering three individual club records en route to an overall gold medal in her division. McNulty set swim club records in the 100m free, 200m IM and 100m backstroke.

She wasn’t the only swimmer to find gold in the water last weekend, with teammate Andrea Kratezer winning the division 1 girls. Makenna Haight (div 4 girls), Flyn Huber (div 1 boys), Kennedy Dickie (div 3 girls), Matt MacDonald (div 3 boys), Kiana McNulty (O2 girls), Mary Keohle (div 6 girls) and Ealin Ran (div 5 girls) all had excellent meets and earned silver aggregates. In addition, sisters Isabel Cloutier (div 1 girls) and Madeline Cloutier (div 1 girls) did tied for bronze. “I am very pleased with how the team did on the weekend, we swam fast and had fun and I think that is what this club is all about. I look forward to our next swim meet,” said co-head coach Lucas Stringer. The Ogopogos are set for another weekend of fast swimming as they head to Merritt this weekend.

Three Okanagan Athletics Club athletes represented the local track and field club at the Junior Development Pentathlon Championships this past weekend in Langley. It was the first pentathlon for all three and an outstanding day. Dane Martin came out on top of the pack in the 12-year-old boys category with a score of 2,815 points, more than 180 points clear of the next competitor. Martin won two of the five events in the pentathlon, achieving a personal best in the high jump with a jump of 1.54 metres. Martin’s overall score also stood the test of time, placing him in amongst the all time best performances in his age group. His score fell inside the top six all-time for his age in B.C. Other competitors also fared well in their first pentathlons featuring five different track events.

Kamloops would strike again before ehalf taking the 2-1 lead einto the break. r In the second half -Okanagan FC came out looking for the equalizder but Kamloops broke nthrough early in the half with a breakaway chance tthat was stopped by keepder Christi Tallon. Taltlon though was injured in emaking the save so midAfielder Michelle Smith stepped up to finish out the game in goal. t Kamloops continued lto push for more goals but -the back line of Okanagan FC was stellar and thwartned their efforts.

Fishy pride is good for a youngster to experience

t seemed like we were driving straight uphill. Suddenly, the car was burping and balking at the climb and we finally had to pull off the narrow gravel road, permitting a cloud of gritty dust to catch up with us and settle on every surface. Dad raised the hood, tinkered a bit and let things cool off. The rope holding the wooden boat on top of our vehicle had to be loosened since it was tied to the bumper. It was a vapour lock, Dad said. After awhile, he said it had cooled, so he dropped the hood back with a thunk, re-tied the boat he’d made in the basement for fishing, and we headed off uphill again, leaving a cloud of dust to hang in the air behind us. I can still remember looking at the boards as they were soaking in my bathtub so Dad could form a curve for the bow of his new boat. I thought it was quite exciting to be able to do that to wood, but I wondered how would it float? The boat did float, even carrying us, our sandwiches and gear and a noisy, smelly motor. Dad was known to call it various things as he pulled hard on a rope, making the floating boat lurch back and forth while

TRAIL MIX

Judie Steeves I hung on for dear life. In the mid-summer heat, we ground on up the dusty forest road, enclosed by towering, thick stands of evergreens, coated in grey dust, that were growing close on either side of the track until, quite suddenly, it became much brighter. We levelled off to a view of bright yellow water lilies and flat, open water, surrounded by firs and pines, and a meadow bursting with wildflowers. There were red paintbrush, yellow arnica, orange tiger lilies, white yarrow and blue lupines against a backdrop of deep green grass. I was in awe. All was quiet except for a chorus of frogs and the chirp of birds. There weren’t the sounds of motors and machinery and people talking that was a constant background sound down in the city. It felt peaceful. Once the car stopped, Dad had a system for sliding the boat off the car, loading it up and dragging it to the water’s edge to

launch it. I had to struggle into a fat, bulky red lifejacket that made me feel like an oversized ladybug, and hop awkwardly into the boat, while Dad pushed us off. I held tight to the seat. There was a little production with the motor, after he’d used an oar to push us out of the floating waterlily pads with their yellow cups open to the sky—and then with a great roar, we were off. It was a small motor, even though it made a lot of noise, and once it settled down, it putted as it pushed us slowly around the lake, while Dad got the rods out and attached the gear of the day. I got a worm on a willow leaf troll, but Dad was good about putting it on for me. He used a fly, but not one of the pretty ones. It was boring, just sitting there holding the rod, under the hot sun, as we putted round and round. I saw the occasional deer on shore and sometimes a fish came to the surface to tease us, but for a long time it seemed like we’d never catch one. Then, I felt the most amazing thing. The rod I was holding had twitched, just like someone was trying to send me a message from deep below us. I twitched back, then followed Dad’s instruc-

It was yanked back down and I nearly lost the rod into the depths of the lake. Dad was not impressed at that. I hung on to it for dear life after that and reeled in the line as well as I could, excited and scared at the same time. What might be on the end that was putting up so much resist-

ance? Finally, after what seemed like a century, there was a frenzied splashing quite near the boat and my fish tried to dive underneath us. I hung onto the rod and Dad got a net ready and managed to manoeuvre it below my trout, finally lifting it high into the air. I felt light-headed. I’d landed a fish.

As he flopped helplessly in the bottom of the boat, I wanted to pick him up and cuddle him, but Dad hit him over the head and the flopping stopped. I felt kind of bad, but at the same time, I’d caught a fish, which was something Dad was always trying to do, so I felt very proud instead. And, after we’d cleaned him, floured him and fried him up in some

Helping you get Home!!

On Wednesday, Teresa and I attended an Uptown Rutland Business Association After 5 social. While there, we were reminded of an upcoming event critical in helping critically ill children. The Wish Come True Society, a local non-profit organization, is determined to create a Respite/ Hospice House for Children in Kelowna. That’s a challenging quest and one I hope the community fully embraces. It certainly is a need worthy of resolve. On Wednesday, July will host the 8th annual Ugly Jacket Classic Golf Tournament in an effort to kick off that quest. Currently, any family with a terminally ill child, or child in need of con-

stant care, must travel to Vancouver for assistance. Such a scenario is not only physically and financially difficult; it is also emotionally upsetting for all involved. The Wish Come True Society recognized eight years ago the need for local families with terminally ill children to have access to essential, quality care for their kids without the additional risk of the financial and emotional hardship caused by having to leave their homes, jobs and support systems to travel to Canuck Place in Vancouver. During the past seven years, the Ugly Jacket tournament helped raise funds to assist families travelling to Vancouver. While that honour-

“Bigger thinking, Better design, Bolder ambitions” Professor Jack Lohman, CBE; CEO Royal BC Museum

The Royal BC Museum is looking forward – what do we need to accomplish for future generations? We believe a refreshed, modern museum and archives is at the heart of celebrating British Columbia and its place in the wider world. Bigger thinking, better design, bolder ambitions – these will mark what we do for the benefit of the society and economy of our province. Please join us to find out more about our plans and share your ideas with us.

Community Event Details: Sunday, July 7, 2013 - 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Presentation - 4:30 p.m. followed by discussion Okanagan Heritage Museum, Laurel Packinghouse, 1304 Ellis Street, Kelowna For further information and to participate online please visit: www.royalbcmuseum.bc.ca

able effort was greatly appreciated, organizers faced a scenario two years ago that helped alter their fundraising focus. Nine-year-old Marcus Smythe and his family were the recipient of the annual event’s funds and assistance. However, all little Marcus really wanted during that tough time period was to see his friends and his puppy dog. Sadly, Marcus passed away less than two months after the tournament. It was at that point that the Wish Come True Society decided it was more important to build a respite/hospice house for children here in Kelowna —rather than continuously sending an individual family to Vancouver. When Teresa and I returned home from the URBA event, my mind continued to replay the trauma and drama my world went through in early October, some 22 years ago. My stepdaughter

Shauna was having severe complications in the final stages of pregnancy and both her life and that of yet unborn daughter Chelsea were in major threat. Shauna was flown by air ambulance to The Children’s Hospital in Vancouver. After a couple hours of intense surgery and skilled medical mastery, the world welcomed Chelsea Rae and saved Shauna as well. Chelsea then endured several more weeks of outstanding care at the Children’s Hospital before she could return to Kelowna. I have no doubt that without the magnificent skill and knowledge of surgeons and staff at that Vancouver, facility my step-daughter, granddaughter and now great granddaughter would not be here today. The stress for all involved at the time was huge and certainly the time and costs of trips back and forth to the coast only added to the stress levels.

I relate to the similar concerns local families face today, which is why I fully support the goal of Brad Krauza, Shaun Bos, Les Bellamy and others involved with the Wish Come True Society. I encourage you to take part in or support the annual Ugly Jacket Classic Golf Tournament sponsored by Bellamy Homes and Country 100.7. There are sponsorship opportunities available as well as room for more teams.

Despite the number of candidates, I encourage you all to get out and vote. Send your message to Victoria—whatever that message may be.

An American discovers Vancouver Island Anne Z. Cooke

CONTRIBUTOR

QUADRA ISLAND, B.C.—The shiny “Michael Jackson,” popular lately with fishermen, isn’t Ed Jordan’s first choice. Even the pink and yellow “Disco Party” ranks higher on his list of hoochies. But after hearing that another Campbell River fishing guide hooked a 32-pound king salmon on it, he’s reconsidering. “Take a look,” he tells me, idling the motor and rummaging through the tackle rack beside the wheel. Shaking his head, he unhooks a blue and green hoochie with silver sparkles and a tail like a hula dancer’s skirt. “Nope,” he says, after a long look. He puts it back and pulls out a Tomic Plug 602. This lure, five inches of ivory iridescence with a mean-looking hook, “swims” when you drop it overboard. “It’s old but it never fails,” he says. Sure enough, the Tomic does the job. By mid-afternoon we’ve hooked and landed two kings (Chinook) and a silver salmon (coho). To sweeten this sunny August day we’ve followed Quadra’s ragged coastline, watched sea birds diving for dinner and spotted a pod of dolphins. Pleased, pumped and anticipating grilled salmon for dinner, we ask ourselves what took us so long to get here. When you’re a gypsy by trade, ever searching for new horizons, seeing the world—all of it— seems possible. But as one season succeeds the next and you postpone this trip, or that trip, some plans wind up in the reject pile. Then one day you look at the pushpins stuck into that big world map, each one marking your travels, and right in the middle is a black hole, as empty as a 15th century sailing chart. Until last August, Vancouver Island, 299 miles long and 50 miles wide, lying off the southwest coast of British Columbia, was one of those places. But not because it’s too far away. Early-morning flights from Los Angeles and Denver—and from most western U.S.

Add an hour to rent a car and you’re on your way. Give yourself a week and you can tour most of the lower half of the island, especially Ucluelet (youCLUE-let), on the southwest coast. This was a place we knew nothing about but whose name alone was tantalizing enough to get our attention. And so the adventure began. In Victoria, we tracked a pod of killer whales, explored the lively harbour scene and sampled the city’s impressive new world of food. We spent a day as Canadian postmen, flying with mailman and pilot Mike Farrell on CorilAir’s six-seater DeHavilland Beaver out of Campbell River. Farrell not only delivers letters, packages and emergency supplies to residents of six emerald-green islets, but he plays travel guide to sightseers along for ride, pointing out tidal currents, celebrity mansions, hidden harbours and apple orchards. Following Route 19, between Victoria and Campbell River, proved as ample as pot luck dinner at an Elks Club fund raiser. harbours, inlets and towns dotted the eastern

shore, some more scenic than others, but each with its fishermen’s dock, sailboat slips, kayakers on the water and inviting green islets beyond. Wandering through Nanimo we ate lunch at Troller’s Fish and Chips, a guidebook-recommended restaurant that took us 20 minutes to find, but that more than lived up to its reputation. Heading west

toward Tofino and Ucluelet on Route 4, we stopped to explore Cathedral Grove, walking among the park’s 300 to 800 yearold Doulas firs, hoary ancients that have been spared the loggers’ saws. The biggest surprise was the abundance of farm-fresh food, sold or served everywhere. When ice cream shops beckoned, we stop to sam-

ple their home-made flavours: peach, blueberry, funky chocolate, pumpkin nut, sassy cherry. Stalls in open-air farmers’ markets, set back under shade trees near the highway, displayed piles of vegetables, fruit, cheeses, breads, fish, cuts of meat and sauces. See Quadra A30

TRAVEL

Watching the tide ‘almost obligatory’ Quadra from A29 For a week we hustled, going 16-7. But we shifted to neutral in Ucluelet, taking time to wander along the Wild Pacific Trail and to tour the town’s unique learning-focused aquarium. Even our lodging, at Black Rock Resort, was a poster child for the latest in minimalist design, instantly soothing. Ensconced among white walls, plate glass and monochrome upholstery, watching the tide surge and ebb was almost obligatory. In fact, the longer I watched the breakers rolling in, the harder it was to look away. As each wave rose, crested, curled over into a wall of foam, roared onto the rocks and slid in among the tree roots beneath the window, the easier it was to breathe deep. Our most memorable evening in Ucluelet was at the resort’s Fetch Restaurant, where we sat on the outdoor deck overlooking the ocean, ordered wine,

fresh halibut and a steak, and lingering over dessert, watched the twilight fade into night. But the reverie was short. At 6:30 a.m. the next morning we checked into Jamie’s Whaling Station for a bear watching excursion. Why so early? When the tide is out, exposing the muddy inter-tidal zone, the black bears come out of the forest to feed. Digging in tide pools and among exposed rocks and logs, the bears are easy to see. So with the sun still barely above the horizon our group of 12 was already cruising the bay, headed for the archipelago known as the Broken Islands. Soon the sun crested the trees, casting an eerie silver sheen over the bay, a photographer’s surprise. “Keep an eye out for green swales along the shoreline, open places between the trees,” said our guide, Scott MacDonald, standing at the wheel. “Most are the sites of ancient Indian villages, but

The birds reuse and rebuild the nests every year, which get bigger every century. They can weigh up to a ton.” Closer to shore it was MacDonald who spotted the first black bear. For five minutes we bobbed on the water, watching him digging and chewing. Finally he looked up, sniffed the air, caught our

scent and galloped away through the trees. “I’m glad to see he’s wary,” said MacDonald. “It’s too easy for poachers to move in and get off a shot.” Nearby a harbour seal sunned on a rock, unafraid. Cruising into the shallows we spotted blue herons wading. In some places, huge rafts of bull kelp floated, long green strands supported by swollen air pods. Noticing a group of cottages in a grassy opening, MacDonald said it

was a Toquaht village named Macoah, occupying a traditional First Nations coastal site. Spotting a second bear prowling between a heap of fallen logs, the photographers screwed on their long lenses and snapped away. This bear saw the boat but kept on digging. “See those fallen logs in the water and washed up on the beach?” asked MacDonald. We’d seen them, giant logs, all about the same length, washed into back water inlets. “Most of those fell off commercial ships. I built my house out of those things,” he explained. Back in Ucluelet, MacDonald apologized for finding just two bears, and those at a distance. That’s OK, said somebody. Seeing the coast, the dozens of tiny islets, the kelp, the seals, the eagles’ nests, was an unforgettable adventure. “But you know,” said MacDonald, “the

sad thing is that nature tours don’t sell. Nobody signs up just to see nature. We’ve got to show them bears and whales. But once they’re out there, they’ll see what keeps us coming back. And that’s what’s worth it.”

IF YOU GO:

To visit the south half of Vancouver Island, fly into Victoria, at the southern tip. From there it’s three to four hours to drive to Campbell River, or west to Ucluelet. Or fly directly to Campbell River to vacation or fish in that area. Good roads, plenty of lodging and frequent shopping areas make renting a car the best way to travel. Travelers need a passport to cross the border and to re-enter the U.S. For more information, see www.hellobc.com or tourismvictoria.com.

Mitsubishi’s Outlander improves on a good thing Step One on the comeback trail—play to your strengths. After paring the deadwood out of a dated lineup over the past few years (Galant, Montero, Endeavor and Eclipse), Mitsubishi is concentrating on what they are currently doing best—compact cars and compact SUVs— before following a stepby-step schedule of new vehicle introductions. The i-MiEV remains as a small-niche, electrical eccentricity. The Lancer is still the company’s breadand-butter mainstay with a wide range of choices, from entry-level models to the esoteric Evo. And the RVR remains an affordable first-step offer-

ing for CUV intenders. And now, a new 2014 Outlander rejuvenates the compact sport utility lineup with a new look, new levels of quality, improved performance, better fuel economy and a list of segment-first technologies packaged in a product that will sell for about the same price as its predecessor. Mitsubishi boasts that the new Outlander will be among Canada’s first compact SUVs to offer advanced safety technologies like Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Departure Warning and a Forward Collision Mitigation system. See Mitsubishi B2

MOTORING Mitsubishi from B1 The 2014 Outlander is all new. Well, up to a point.

A study of the spec sheet shows a lot of common dimensional measurements shared with its predecessor. But chas-

sis improvements for the 2014 model year include a re-tuned suspension and the extensive use of high-tensile strength steel

to lighten the load. An added sub-frame, key reinforcements and redesigned engine mounts contribute to a more re-

fined ride with reduced noise, vibration and harshness. That same emphasis on refinement is found in-

side the Outlander where added insulation and improved weather stripping complement redesigned mirrors and more aero-

dynamic structural lines for less noise and a quieter ride. Passenger comfort takes precedence in the new interior layout. Second row seats receiveM 170 mm more fore and aft travel for additional legroom. Third row seats are 120 mm wider and also add 60 mm more legroom. But, of course, this extra space had to come from somewhere, so cargo room is down significantly to 292 litres, with 968 litres behind the second row and 1,792 litres behind the first row (compared to 422 litres/1,025 litres/2,056 litres in last year’s model). A new power tailgate is available for easier loading. New, high-grade materials inside include padded surfaces, soft-touch finishes, silver highlights and gloss black appliqués. The Americans opted for faux wood accents but Mitsubishi Canada elected for a higher-tech look with carbon fibre-like contrasts. Available new conveniences include dual-zone automatic air conditioning, next-gen SD navigation and a premium audio system with 6.1inch QVGA liquid crystal display and multi-function touch panel. Even the tilt/telescopic steering wheel has been redesigned to better match the uptick in quality and ergonomic design. And the new level of sophistication carries over outside to a more refined, smoother-lined exterior. The biggest change is the new front grille, slimmer and less open with a hint of Montero heritage, tied with chromed strips to new super-wide HID headlamps. Personally, I liked the old gape-mouth grille— Evo-inspired, compared to everything from shark snouts to Sabre Jet air intakes and copied across the board by companies from Ford to Audi. But Mitsubishi really had nowhere else to See Mitsubishi B3

MOTORING ▼ FIRST DRIVE

Engine options to choose Mitsubishi from B2 go, design-wise, so dialing back the styling emphasis from sporty to sophisticated was an inevitable turn of the cycle, and the softer, more contoured look contributes to a slightly slicker 0.33 cD of drag (a seven per cent improvement). Under the skin, the 2014 Outlander two engine choices starting with a new 2.4-litre four cylinder and a reworked version of the 3.0-litre V6. Both engines are rat-

ed with about the same power levels as their predecessors but both have also been technologically tweaked for better performance and improved fuel economy. The new 166 hp 2.4-litre SOHC four-cylinder replaces a more complicated DOHC design and its lightweight mass contributes to the 2014 Outlander’s 100 kg reduction in curb weight. This engine is mated to a CVT transmission. The 227-hp 3.0-litre V-6 engine gets high-ig-

nition spark plugs and an improved exhaust system for better fuel consumption and reduced emissions. While other manufacturers are moving to turbo-powered four-cylinders, Mitsubishi feels they can appeal to some customers by retaining a V6 option. A six-speed Sportronic transmission mated to this engine has a new final drive ratio for improved fuel economy. Both engines pull adequately but the V6 offers a little more moxie and a 1,588 kg (3,500 lb) tow rating. The 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander lineup also offers five- or seven-passenger accommodation, two-wheel drive or allwheel drive choices, and three trim levels—ES, SE and GT—that can be optioned further with various equipment packages. All-Wheel Control (AWC) is available in ES and SE models and the new drive selection choices include 4WD ECO, 4WD Auto and 4WD Lock. The top-ofthe-line GT model comes with a Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC) system that splits torque delivery from side-to-side as well as fore and aft. Drive selection choices for S-AWC models include AWC ECO, Normal, Snow and Lock. Customers can best explore trim levels online but it is worth noting that

ROB BEINTEMA/CONTRIBUTOR

CANADIAN automotive journalists are shown switching between 2.4-litre four cylinder models to 3.0-litre V6 versions. The Outlander offers base two-wheel drive versions and two different all-wheel drive choices. even the entry-level Outlander ES 2WD comes well-equipped with standards that include seven airbags (with a new driver’s knee airbag), four wheel ABS disc brakes with Brake-Assist, EBD and Brake Override System, Active Stability Control, Hill-Start Assist, a leather-wrapped tilt/telescopic steering wheel with cruise and audio buttons, power locks, power windows and power heated mirrors, keyless entry and security system, heated front seats, a 60/40 split-folding rear seat with recline, and a six-speaker AM/FM/CD/MP3 audio system with Bluetooth 2.0 hands-free cell phone interface with streaming audio and voice control.

That’s quite a package to build on and, along with the wide variety of configurations and choices in the new Outlander lineup, an indicator of just how serious Mitsubishi is about its rejuvenation plans. There was some speculation about Mitsubishi’s future, especially after Suzuki’s pullout of North America. But I wouldn’t be surprised to see some of those Suzuki dealers scrambling to join Mitsubishi Canada’s network, a network that they are planning to grow to 110 dealers from the current 85. Step Two on the comeback trail—add product. Mitsubishi Canada will introduce a thrifty

new three-cylinder Mirage subcompact in the near future, and later this fall, the 2014 Outlander PHEV (plug-in hybrid electric vehicle) will also offer an added alternative to an updated Outlander SUV lineup that has sold over 50,000 models in Canada since it’s introduction in 2002. Stay tuned for more news about a brighter Mitsubishi future.

quecento (500) that was introduced here in 2011. It is a brand new vehicle, built on a new B-segment “small wide” platform with room for five and 42 per cent more interior space. While somewhat boxy and quirky like the this generation of the iconic 500 that has sold more than one million units since its global launch in 2007, the 500L is 660 mm (26 inches) longer, 152 mm (6 inches) wider and taller. Right out of the gate, the 500L comes well equipped in one of four different trim levels, starting at $19,995. Fiat calls the 500L a multipurpose vehicle and one could look at it as a modern take on the venerable old station wagon, similar to the Kia Soul, Scion xB, Mazda 5 and MINI Cooper Clubman. Fiat says the 500L was designed from the inside out, aimed at buyers who love

the cutesy 500 but need more space. The 500L is assembled in Serbia at a former Yugo plant and is powered by a 160 hp MultiAir turbocharged 1.4-litre SOHC inline four-cylinder engine. This is the same engine that powers the track-ready Fiat 500 Abarth and the Dodge Dart. The engine comes standard with a six-speed manual transmission or an optional six-speed Euro twin clutch automatic ($1,450). A conventional six-speed automatic will be offered later on in the model year. Multipurpose is actually a good tag for the 500L because it does offer versatility with an adjustable load floor at the rear and 60/40 split rear seats that flip and tumble to offer more luggage volume. The exterior design harkens back to a Fiat of the ’50s and ‘60s, the Fiat

600 Multipla, yet it also has several design cues from the current Fiat 500. One of the beauties of the 500L is the opportunity for customization with dozens of colour combinations, including three roof colours, and funky Euro interior designs. Two things about the interior strike you immediately when you sit down in the cockpit. First, there’s lots of room, unlike the 500, which feels and is, quite tiny. Also, the amount of light that comes in the greenhouse-like expanse of glass on the 500L makes it an inviting place to be. Add to that a panoramic dual-pane power sunroof that is a $1,200 option available on all but the base Pop model and you’ll almost feel you’re in an open-air convertible. The 500L has a modern looking interior with two large round gauges front and centre and a strange shaped steering wheel that the Italian designers refer to as a “squircle” because it looks like a square within a circle. It’s hard to de-

Otherwise, the interior is very nicely finished and quiet on the road, even with the audio system off as my driving partner and I preferred it. It’s not a sports car, but it does gobble up corners as we discovered during a drive through winding roads in the countryside south of the city. We drove both a twin clutch automatic Lounge model and after lunch, an entrylevel Pop with manual transmission. Both were engaging and fun to drive. The rear hatchback makes for handy loading and unloading and it has a neat grab handle for easy closing. The back seats fold and tumble easily and also have 12 cm of fore and aft travel. Cargo volume is 605 litres with the rear seats upright and 1,268 litres with the seats folded. The Pop is loaded with standard fea-

Overall, this in-yourface exterior with lizard-eyed front end can be polarizing, but I like it, even on lesser Jukes that don’t wear all the premium Nismo touches. And there are many among the nearly 100 worth noting. Nismo is more than just an appearance package, which includes numerous airflow, powertrain and handling tweaks by the company’s nearly 50-year-old performance arm. Nismo is Juke’s top trim level starting at $24,998 for the frontwheel-drive (FWD) and $28,478 for all-wheeldrive (AWD).

Let’s start with its larger and lower bottom grille that provides a more aggressive first impression and improves airflow to the engine. This is flanked by LED strips that replace the standard round foglights. Sideskirts direct airflow around the rear wheels and there have been changes to the wheel arches, which are more pronounced and now fully finished in body colour. B-pillars are painted gloss ‘piano black,’ and in back, there’s a deeper rear bumper, the red pinstripe continues from the sideskirts onto the black sill and a larger liftgate spoiler and wide-bore exhaust diffuser complete the look.

rors and logos, with this tone repeated in the tachometer and at 12 o’clock on the steering wheel— which is clad in alcantara and leather. Overall, the interior is largely charcoal, but nicely accented with piano black and metallic finishes, not to mention precision-stitched Nismo logos and metallic pedals, instead of rubber. The look is smart and well put together. Other standard content in this trim includes smartkey with pushbutton start, automatic climate control, navigation with five-inch touch screen, rearview monitor, Bluetooth and a Rockford Fosgate ecoPunch audio system that kicks out the sound. They haven’t turned the Juke into a road rocket, but it is a bit quicker thanks to a 1.6-litre direct-injection turbo four that has been tweaked for more horsepower and torque (197 hp and 184 lb/ ft versus 188 and 177). It’s not a big jump, but in a 1,437 kg vehicle (1,329 with FWD), there’s enough punch to make the standard-equipped CVT fun to drive. There’s ample lowend torque, and the sporttuned CVT can be sequentially shifted. Too bad you can’t order the AWD model with the six-speed manual, which comes only with FWD. For those light-of-foot, they may be rewarded with pretty decent fuel economy as the AWD Juke is rated at 8.0/6.6 L/100 km (city/hwy) and 8.2/6.4 for FWD. My own figures were a bit off the mark. But fuel economy wouldn’t top my list of “must haves” in a Nismo vehicle anyway. Performance would, and aside from the Juke’s lively but not entirely neck-snapping acceleration, handling is worthy of the nameplate.

DIDORA, JOHN It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of John Didora at the age of 88 on Tuesday, July 2, 2013, with his family by his side. Cherishing his memory are his wife Anne of 65 years of marriage; daughter Pat (Colin), grandchildren Ian (Jana), Jason (Kelly), Lindsay, Sarah Anne (and her mother, Lil), great granddaughter Adria, brother Peter (Nellie) and many more in-laws, nieces and nephews. John was predeceased by his parents Sam and Lena, son Gordon and older brother Bill. Like many other young people, Dad was called upon by the army in January of 1944 until his discharge in April of 1946. He then helped his parents on the farm until starting his 35 year career in January 1947 with Canada Cement. On November 8, 1947, John married his beloved Anne and began his most important and proudest lifetime career as a family man. John started as a labourer with Canada Cement, working his way up to supervisor and ending as a consultant. His work took him and Anne to many Canadian locations, USA and South America before retiring to Kelowna. They made many friends in their travels, and they had many stories to share with all the family. He enjoyed his retirement in his way by spending time with his family, either travelling to visit them or enjoying family visits in Kelowna. Dad always made sure he took any visitors around the Okanagan, showing them all the beautiful sights. He enjoyed his grandchildren and was extremely proud of each of them. Adria, his great granddaughter, brought a whole new light to his eyes with her visits to Kelowna. John was also very involved with volunteering for the Legion honour guard and was a 4th degree Knight of Columbus member for many years. He was a lifetime member for both organizations. He helped with pancake breakfasts, marching in parades, poppy campaigning, Bingo, you name it, if he was needed, he was there. He also volunteered in the building of the Ukrainian Catholic church but later he transferred his membership to the Roman Catholic Church. John was very devoted to everything in which he was involved. The family would like to thank Dr. Michael Bobyn for his wonderful care of John throughout the years; and thanks to Dr. Carlyle and the staff at Cottonwoods for their compassionate care, not only for John, but also for his family. It was appreciated more than words can say. We would also like to thank Teri for her care and support; it meant so much. A Funeral Prayer Service will be held on Monday, July 8, 2013 at 10:00 am at Springfield Funeral Home, 2020 Springfield Road, Kelowna, BC. Interment will take place at a later date in Manitoba. In lieu of flowers please send donations to the Heart and Stroke Foundation www.heartandstroke.bc.ca or charity of your choice.

Cooling down those household energy bills Most people think about natural gas for heating their homes in the winter, but did you know that the fuel is also doing us their cool during the dog days of summer? According to statistics from Ontario’s Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO), on the hottest days of summer 2012, natural gas’ ability to quickly dial up to generate electricity for homes across the province was critical to meeting demand. For 2013, a repeat performance is likely, just as soon as the inevitable heat wave rolls in, kicking air

conditioners into high gear. “Most of us may not know that natural gas is the second largest source of electricity supply in the province’s energy mix,” said Matthew Gibson, a spokesperson for the Ontario Natural Gas Alliance. “With low fuel costs and lower emissions, natural gas can affordably and reliably back up renewable power on those hot and humid days when our air conditioners are working overtime.” According to experts, here are a few things to do at home to help realize

Buyers still hold upper hand in Kelowna

the most savings for your family this summer:

GET WITH THE PROGRAM

A programmable thermostat allows your home to automatically adjust to your schedule, increasing or decreasing the amount of air conditioning with pre-set temperatures based on your needs. It means not having to fiddle with the thermostat before you leave the house every morning. Even better, you’re covered on those busy days when setting the temperature is the last thing on your mind.

CONTRIBUTED

A programmable thermostat decreases any unnecessary reliance on air conditioning. INSPECT THE HARDWARE

In the summer, your air conditioning unit needs as much TLC as the furnace does in the winter. Keep it clean and it’ll keep you cool.

SHUT WINDOWS TIGHT

In the winter, a cold draft in the house is an unwelcome guest. You

should think the same of leaks and open windows during the summertime that prevent your home from cooling itself as efficiently as possible. When the air conditioning is on, shut windows and doors tight, because any openings are letting cool air escape—and your savings along with it.

▼ OF PRIME INTEREST

Foreclosure buying process is not simple The foreclosure process is a mystery to many people. There are many misconceptions about purchasing a foreclosure property. It’s more complicated than making an offer on a home that is not in foreclosure. And if you have found yourself in a situation of nearing a foreclosure, here are some ideas on how to potentially avoid a judicial sale or foreclosure. That judicial process begins with a demand letter sent to the borrower, which gives the borrower a short amount of time to pay off the mortgage. Once the demand letter is sent to the borrower, a petition is filed in the B.C. Supreme court which starts an action called the Order Nisi, a process which gives a redemption time to the borrower, usually about six months. This can be done by the borrower attempting to sell the property. After the Order Nisi, one of

two things will happen. The petitioner will chose to have the property listed for sale by the court by way of a judicial sale through a realtor. Under that scenario, the lender will receive an order approving the sale where the borrower will be responsible for any shortfalls between the borrowed amount of the mortgage and the sale amount. The second option for the courts is an order of absolute foreclosure, which occurs if: * the redemption period has expired, * the property is worth the same amount as the mortgage debt or more, * the respondent borrower is judgement-proof (i.e. no assets or money to apply towards deficiency), and * There are no offers under a judicial sale. Under those circumstances, the lender can seek an absolute order of foreclosure, under which

the lender becomes the new registered owner and all borrowers are wiped off title. No further action can be taken against the borrower after the court has granted the order absolute. Once a judgment is placed against a property it is placed on the market with a realtor. At this point, a buyer can make an offer on the property. The purchase process for a foreclosed property is not like a property that is normally listed and not subject to foreclosure. Under foreclosure, what happens then is the buyer makes an offer to purchase the property and there is a subject period where the purchaser removes subjects such as financing, appraisal, home inspection,etc. If subject-free, the offer goes to court and the vendor’s lawyer presents the offer to a judge The judge asks if there are any other parties in the courtroom who want to submit an offer. If

not, and the offer is market value, the judge will approve the sale. If there are competing offers the judge will instruct all parties including the original purchaser to leave the courtroom and resubmit their final subject free offer in a sealed, envelope to the vendor’s lawyer. After all offers have been submitted, the judge reviews them and approves the best offer. And all the offers made at the court level must be subject-free offers. So even if you have an accepted offer on a foreclosed property, there is a high likelihood that there will be other offers once you reach the court proceedings.

he Kelowna real estate market still remains a buyers market, but the question is for how long? With the June housing for sale inventory reflecting a declining number from the previous month compared to this same point last year, some are now wondering if the pendulum will finally swing back to the seller’s side? In June, 411 single REAL ESTATE family homes came onto RUNDOWN the market, that’s down 6.8 per cent from this time last year with 441 new single family homes. The total of 1,578 acCeiwen tive homes on the market Morgan in the Central Okanagan, once again down from June 2012 by 11.10 per cent at 1,775. Condominiums also took a large hit diminishing 14.38 per cent from 160 new active units on the market in 2012, compared to 137 for June 2013. Currently on the market is about 871 active condo listings, once again a declining number from 977 condos in last years inventory. Townhomes available also faced a similar situation of a decline of 26.40 per cent from 125 new active listings in June of last year to a mere 137. Total inventory for the Central Okanagan for townhomes declined 19.26 per cent. When comparing inventory from May to June, all three categories took a tumble as the numbers for June didn’t reflect the expected jump in new product as history with the previous years has shown us. Low inventory is partially due to the weather heating up and the market following suit. Last month, single family home sales experienced a substantial increase of 25.12 per cent when compared to June 2012, up from 203 to 254. Condominiums were down slightly, 72 units sold last month reflecting a decrease of 8.86 per cent from 79 sold units in June 2012. Townhouses sales declined as well for June by 17.46 per cent from 63 properties sold this time last year to 52 sales. Still overall sales for the Central Okanagan were up 12.59 per cent. As we are starting to see an increase in sales one has to wonder just for how long this active market will remain in play. Buyers are starting to exhaust what housing inventory is out there, experiencing the pressure of fewer properties to choose from coupled with higher competition among buyers for fewer available options. Ceinwen Morgan has worked in the Kelowna real estate industry for the past five years.
