Former BCFGA president charged with threatening grower Wade Paterson STAFF REPORTER

Kirpal Boparai, former president of the BC Fruit Growers’ Association, was released on bail Tuesday after being charged Monday night with uttering threats and possessing a weapon for a dangerous purpose. Karmjit Gill, an orchardist and board member of the B.C. Tree Fruits Cooperative, said he is scared for his life after an incident that took place on his East Kelowna Road property Monday involving Boparai. According to Gill, a man called him Monday afternoon to ask why his orchard was not one of the hail-damaged properties toured by politicians last Saturday. “I said: That’s not my responsibility,” said Gill. Gill said the man then began to curse in Punjabi. “He was saying: Where are you now? I want to kill you.” Gill was in another orchard at the time of the call, but indicated to the

man he was at home. A short time later, a pickup truck arrived at Gill’s residence and the following minutes were captured on Gill’s home surveillance video.

WHY AM I GETTING THE PUNISHMENT WITHOUT REASON? IT’S NOT MY FAULT. Karmjit Gill

On Tuesday, Gill showed Capital News the video footage. After getting out of the truck, the man being filmed appeared to be irate. The video showed the man waving his arms erratically. Eventually, he picked up a shovel from his truck bed and walked a few steps before striking it on the ground. Gill’s son—who didn’t want to be

named—said he and his cousin were at the house at the time of the event; however, they were never threatened directly. Gill’s son explained the man chose to focus his frustration toward Gill, telling Gill’s son of his intention to kill his father. The video showed neighbours arrive on the property, who were apparently curious about the commotion. Gill’s son said he phoned the son of the angry man, asking him to come and calm down his father. When the son arrived he took the shovel away from his dad. Minutes later, from a separate camera angle, the irate man can be seen getting into an RCMP cruiser. According to Gill, the man phoned again from the police car, once again threatening to kill him. Gill owns 10 orchards in the Kelowna region; he said he is concerned about his own safety while on any of those properties going forward. “I want protection. I

I have a headache,” Gill told Capital News Tuesday afternoon. “Why am I getting the punishment without rea-

son? It’s not my fault.” Gill said he does not consider himself to be friends with the man who threatened him Monday. “As growers, we know each other. (We’re) not friends.”

Jeet Dukhia, current president of the BCFGA, said he had no knowledge of Monday’s event, other than what he’s seen in the media. Although Gill indicated he helped organ-

ize the politicians’ tour of the hail-damaged crops, Dukhia said that wasn’t the case. “I had given instruc-

Man pulled from Okanagan Lake identified front of Stuart Park. The Kelowna Yacht Club confirmed Reinson was the club member found floating in the lake behind a moorage slip on Friday.

An online memorial page for the 66-year-old father of three indicates he is survived by his wife Fay Reinson, daughters Maria McLennan and Tara Reinson, and son Mike Reinson.

An explanation for the course of events that led to his death has yet to materialize. Reinson was reported to have been in critical condition after being taken from the water.

He was transfered to Kelowna General Hospital following his discovery. Early Sunday a 24-yearold Surrey man drowned while swimming the lake.

Bernard Ave. vies for national award Kelowna city hall wants you to vote for the new-look Bernard Avenue as a best place in Canada. The Canadian Institute of Planners is hosting its annual competition to recognize Canada’s truly special places, and the revitalized Bernard Avenue is in the running. “What we have with Bernard Avenue is truly unique,” said Kelowna Mayor Walter Gray. “Residents and tourists alike gather and spend time downtown at a variety of outdoor cafés and shops. It’s really just a fantastic place to bring your family and spend time connecting with our city’s heritage and culture, and

support local business.” Residents are encouraged to vote for Bernard Avenue in the best streets category. There are four other streets in the running, Malahat Drive on Vancouver Island, Saint Catherine Street in Montreal, Portage and Main in Winnipeg and Lacombe, Alberta’s historic Main Street. “We’re asking residents to vote and show their pride for our city,” said Gray. The contest runs until Sept. 23, and you can vote for Bernard Avenue by going on line to http:// www.cip-icu.ca/greatplaces/en/.

Local producer’s follow-up marijuana documentary is just about ready to roll Wade Paterson STAFF REPORTER

WADE PATERSON/CAPITAL NEWS

LOCAL FILM PRODUCER Adam Scorgie and director Brett Harvey recently

interviewed Wiz Khalifa for their upcoming marijuana documentary, The Culture High. Scorgie says many of the film’s interviews have already been completed.

Local film producer Adam Scorgie and director Brett Harvey are getting closer to completing their new marijuana documentary and making good on all of the promises they made to about 3,500 people who helped fund the film. The Culture High is a follow-up to Scorgie and Harvey’s successful 2007 documentary, The Union: The Business Behind Getting High. To date, the duo have completed a handful of interviews with the likes of Snopp Dogg, Wiz Khalifa, B-Real from Cypress Hill, former DEA agent Sean Dunagan, co-creator of HBO’s The

Wire, Ed Burns, and several doctors and scientists. Scorgie added he and Harvey are close to nailing down interviews with Kevin Smith, Joe Rogan and Sir Richard Branson, as well. Last year, Scorgie began a Kickstarter campaign with the goal of bringing in $190,000 to help fund the production of The Culture High. On Aug. 3, 2012, the campaign concluded with $240,022 raised. In return, Scorgie promised various goodies ranging from an online thank-you credit for backers who contributed $15 to a theatrical screening of the documentary in the hometowns of five donors who offered $10,000. “It adds about an extra

two weeks of work sending out all those gifts and stuff like that, but the pros far outweigh the cons,” said Scorgie. “It has helped in so many ways because when (we go) to market, we can say…people were willing to put up $240,000 of their hard-earned money to prove that this is an issue that people care about.” Scorgie said the goal is to premiere the film at the SXSW Film Festival in Austin, Texas, in March 2014. “Hopefully we’ll be premiering there and then doing our full release, theatrically across North America, on April 20 (2014), 4:20.” wpaterson@kelownacapnews.com Twitter: @PatersonWade

Local elections overhauled The province says it is changing the rules regarding local government elections. Coralee Oakes, Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development, said the changes are the most significant to local elections legislation in nearly two decades and are a reflection of the recommendations of a joint provincial and Union of BC Municipalities local government elections task force. Local government election rules apply to municipalities, regional districts, parks boards, the Islands Trust and boards of education.

Local election rules will be modernized in two phases said Oakes. A white paper outlining government’s intentions will be released in early September and legislation is scheduled to be introduced next spring to implement task force recommendations, except expense limits, for the 2014 local elections. Consultation with key stakeholders on expense limits will also be undertaken starting in November this year. This consultation could lead to further legislative changes for the 2017 elections.

tions will be consolidated in a proposed new act for campaign finance in local elections. Details of those changes will be included in the white paper to be released early this fall. Highlights include: • Disclosure and registration by third-party advertisers • Sponsorship information to be required on all election advertising • All campaign finance disclosure statements to be filed 90 days after the election instead of the current 120 days • Banning anonymous contributions. The proposed legislation also will give Elections BC a key role in enforcing compliance adherence to campaign finance rules in local elections. “We are committed to ensuring that election participants are fully aware of any changes well in advance of the Nov. 15, 2014, local elections,” said Oakes. “These changes are about enhancing transparency and accountability.” UBCM said it is pleased to see that the province is moving forward with the new rules on a phased-in approach.

Locked up to help put an end to animal cruelty

d r

Last year, the lo-cal SPCA saw members -of the local community locked up all for a good -cause. So this year, it will do it again. The second anenual Kennel Lock-In For oThe Animals will be held Friday, Aug. 23 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the B.C. SPCA Kelowna location, sat 3785 Casorso Rd. Last year, the event -raised more than $5,000 for the Scotiabank and B.C. SPCA Paws for a -Cause campaign to end nanimal cruelty. “We are so happy to have two of last year’s oguests back to be locked -up again,” said Heather Harrison, in charge of nbranch fundraising sup,port for the B.C. Interior. ” One of those guests will be Global Okanagan enewscaster Klaudia Ce-glarz. Ceglarz was honoured last year by the B.C. eSPCA with the Media Excellence award for her swork and fundraising for the animals in the community. “Animals have an incredibly special place in my heart,” said Ceglarz. She said especially animals that end up in less fortunate circumstances and need help. “I know so many lucky animals that have great homes and families to love them. It warms my heart. Then there are those animals at SPCA shelters and other animal sanctuaries that aren’t as lucky. They also deserve good homes and loving families. “It’s those animals that inspire me to do what I do to help. If being locked in a kennel for a few hours helps enhance their lives in any way, then I’m happy to be behind bars raising awareness and money for the animals that need it most.” Another “guest” to be behind bars this year will be a B.C. SPCA donor, West Kelowna Warriors corporate sales director Alex Draper. With the recent loss of his 12-year-old shephard, Hailey, Draper is raising

money in memory of this special pet. “Hailey brought so much happiness to our lives and we miss her dearly,” said Draper. He added he is doing this for Hailey but also because nothing makes him feel better than raising money for the SPCA. New to the jailbird crew this year will be Cam McRobb. McRobb is a motor vehicle trades department chairman at the BCGEU, as well as provincial bargaining council chairman for the union and pension board trustee at Okanagan College. He said he would love to have an English bulldog or boxer but his busy life is not conducive to being a pet owner right now, although he does have many friends and family that have companion animals. “Many of my close friends are dog owners and I see the bonds they form with their pets,” he said. “It’s a very special (bond) and the support of the SPCA is crucial to our best pals’ well-being” added McRobb. The trio have set targets this year and collectively are aiming to raise more than $7,000 for local abused, abandoned and unwanted animals. The B.C. SPCA staff will be standing by to accept donations to get these animal lovers out of the kennel. Drop by the local SPCA branch to see them behind bars and make a donation at the counter. There will coffee, doughnuts and cookies and you can make a minimum $10 donation to be entered to win a hockey stick signed by Justin Schultz of the Edmonton Oilers, donated by Alex Draper of Shut Out Sports Collectibles. The Scotiabank and B.C. SPCA Paws for a Cause walk to end animal cruelty will be held on Sunday, Sept. 8 at the City Park north field.

The time to start planning next year’s WaterWise yard is now

KELOWNA’S unH2O Garden is a place to get ideas about your own water-wise

Okanagan garden.

(Last in a series) Now is a great time to start thinking about what you would like your yard to look like next year. Take a look at some of the gardens and yards of the Okanagan—planted with native or drought-tolerant plantings—and see what is doing well, despite August’s heat and lack of moisture. There are a growing number of examples of low-water gardens in the Okanagan to learn from.

The prize this year has been donated by KelownaGardens.com, based in Lake Country and certified by the Irrigation Industry Association of BC, helping ensure the greatest water savings possible. “We’re very happy with the numbers coming in so far,” said Corinne Jackson, communications director with the OBWB and responsible for the OkWaterWise program. “We’ve had more than 600 entries this year, so far, compared to a total of 237 last year.” Instead of shaming residents to use less, the unique campaign encourages people to make their water work more effectively for them. The idea for the Make Water Work campaignwas a recognition that more needs to be done to address outdoor water use.

City Park flowers remembered

he response from last week’s column about the beautiful 1951 flower beds in City Park has been strong, ranging from fond memories to an actual gift of a heritage geranium from Brenda Thomson. I also got a call from the daughter of Herbert Woods who was working with the City of Kelowna in the late 1940s to mid1950s. This gentleman may have well been instrumental in beautifying the beds back then in City Park. Thanks for all the feedback and thanks again to the folk who contributed so much to beautifying our city during those years. ••• I lost a good friend recently, a passionate gardener and very nice person. Olga Fahrun had so many gardening interests, including growing vegetables and fruit, as well as some exotics such as figs. She loved to propagate her annuals for the garden and enjoyed trying something new every year. She had a huge collection of named German iris and knew them all by name. A few years ago, I wrote a Gardens West article about Olga and her garden and, of course, it included her dear partner Kurt, who shared her passion. My condolences go out to Kurt and all the family. Olga will be missed, however the gardens in Heaven will be thriving. ••• I’ve written several times about how the drive

FROM THE GROUND UP

Don Burnett and experience up to our mountain lakes has changed over the years and how it just isn’t as enjoyable as it used to be. This past weekend, I decided to spend a day and a night visiting relatives at a lake I have never been to before and what a delight. Not only is Echo Lake a natural spring-fed body of water nestled in a deep valley with the forested mountains towering on both sides, it is still in pristine shape with no dirt bikes and ATVs. The resort is owned and operated by Gail and Georges Boucher, who keep the place so organized and clean it truly has the feeling of a resort with all the amenities and ambience of a fish camp. I was thrilled with the containers full of annuals, perennials, conifers and even some tropical that Gail lovingly takes care of. The water in the lake is so clear you can see 15 feet to the bottom, however after a short distance from the shore the bottom drops off to depths of 100 feet and more I’ve been told. This time of year is not the best for fishing, especially fly fishing, which is all I do; however, the lake produces some really nice fish in the two kilogram size and there are one or two with my name on them that I am going to catch this fall when the conditions are

right. This is truly a family lake and children are welcome. There are cabins available and, of course, nice clean camp sites. It was so cool to see the clean-up person with her lawn rake going over the camp sites even before we left. Check out the website for this fabulous place at www.echolake-fishing-resort.com or call toll free: 1-877-547-6434. Don Burnett Garden Show is on AM 1150.

▼ OUR VIEW

Bernard’s nice but not the greatest

ivic pride aside, Bernard Avenue’s attempt to beat out some of the most famous roads in Canada in order to be named one of the country’s “great places” seems like a longshot at best. Sure, the $14 million facelift that Bernard is currently getting has improved the street immensely and has given it new life despite the fact it is only twothirds complete. But the competition, which has pitted Bernard Avenue against arguably Can-

ada’s most famous corner, Portage and Main in Winnipeg, the spectacular Malahat Drive on southern Vancouver Island, the world-famous Saint Catherine Street, or Rue St. Catherine, as it is known in Montreal and Lacombe, Alberta’s historic Main Street, appears to be an unfair fight. While the national reputations of the first three proceed them, the fact Lacombe’s Main Street actually has the word “historic” in its title should give an indication that it was already rec-

ognized as something special. The fact that Bernard is not in the same league as the other four should not denigrate it in the eyes of those of us who get to enjoy it on a daily basis. The work was a long-time in coming, appears to be worth every penny spent and has given the downtown a vibrancy it has not seen in a long time. But the work needs to be put in perspective. While wider sidewalks, neat street lights and funky brick work are nice eye candy, we are not talking about

th Champs-Elysees in Paris, Oxford Street in London, Fifth Avenue inNew York, Rodeo Drive in LA or Ginza in Tokyo. Bernard Avenue is a small main downtown street in a small Western Canadian city that was recently been rejuvenated. It’s as great a place as we want it to be. We don’t need to win an award from the Canadian Institute of Planners to tell us that. So just enjoy the street for what it is. Shop, dine and watch the people walk by.

Strata corporations are not above B.C. privacy legislation

t should no surprising that stratas have not escaped scrutiny in light of the recent revelations of surreptitious global surveillance of individuals. As condo corporations continue the trend to employ video surveillance cameras, the province’s privacy commissioner is becoming increasingly involved to ensure individual rights are protected. Bradley Weldon, a lawyer with the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner, says while some surveillance might be justified, stratas should consider whether the legal obligations in their use are proportional to the perceived benefit. Condos that employ video surveillance must comply with B.C.’s Per-

sonal Information Protection Act (PIPA). A strata corporation may comply with PIPA by authorizing the collection of personal information through bylaw, pursuant to the Strata Property Act, according to Weldon. If no such bylaw is enacted then the collection must be otherwise authorized by PIPA. In a recent article, Weldon states that video surveillance must be one which a reasonable person would consider appropriate in the circumstances, and the individuals whose images are being recorded must be notified of this purpose on

or before being recorded. This position is supported by an order from an adjudicator who ruled that the use of video cameras Gunnar to protect the security Forsstrom of the property was reasonable, but its use for strata bylaw enforcement was not. The order decreed that video surveillance constitutes a substantial invasion of individuals’ privacy and should only be used in response to a real and significant security or safety problem. Furthermore, while it was deemed reasonable to use video cameras to

STRATA SCENE

monitor exterior doors for security, the adjudicator ordered that recordings must not be actively monitored or routinely reviewed, but only accessed in response to a reported incident. “It’s a good reminder that strata corporations are not above privacy legislation,” says Kelowna lawyer Christy Lovig. “I find that many self-managed strata corporations need to be reminded that they are not an island, and just because they’re physically able to employ certain technologies for the purposes of bylaw enforcement, doesn’t mean they’re legally entitled to.” It’s about balancing interests; strata councils must turn their minds

to the intended use of any video surveillance, which must then be balanced against any associated invasion of privacy issues before determining whether its use is reasonable, according to Lovig. To avoid exposing their corporation and owners to liability, councils should establish a privacy officer to review the condo’s surveillance policy and ensure it is in compliance with the law and that best practises are employed.

▼ CITY PARK NOT THE PLACE

Make visitor centre easily accessible To the editor: I would like to comment on the plan to use City Park for a visitor centre. Having been the project manager for several high profile visitor centres in British Columbia, I was somewhat surprised to learn that the City of Kelowna was considering placing such an important

facility in an out-of-theway place. Location, visibility and access consumed most of our time when we were planning these important facilities. Our research told us that the placement of the visitor centre was directly related to the success of the ultimate goal of enticing the travelling public to visit a

community or region. A large majority of the travelling public who stopped at a visitor centre did so on the spur of the moment because they noticed the facility and were able to gain easy access. We studied many jurisdictions and learned from their successes and failures. Placing a building in a location

away from major traffic routes will substantially reduce the effectiveness of the facility. We found that signage was usually not very effective at directing travellers off major routes. Creating an iconic building with easy access, plenty of parking and good visibility is key to success. I hope the City of Ke-

lowna and Tourism Kelowna will reconsider their choice of locations. This is such an important facility to our community that we need to create something which will make it easy for the travelling public to stop and make the decision to visit our fantastic city. Brent Warne, Kelowna

▼ TERRORISM

itial blast found their way to the river in an effort to relieve the pain from their burns, where many thousands died, most horribly, their bodies clogging the river as their city burned in ruins. This is commonly defined as an act of war. When the United States invaded Iraq approximately 162,000

people were killed, 80 per cent of whom were civilians. This was defined as a pre-emptive strike. In comparison, when a person detonates a bomb, it is now defined as an act of terrorism. It is important that all acts of violent aggression are clearly defined as such and our perception

of them is not blurred by labels. During the 1950 to 1970 period the label “Communist” was used to define our enemy. Accusations of being a Communist could ruin careers. Vast sums of money were spent to stop the “Communist” threat. Similarly the current label of terrorism is now

being used to justify vast military and surveillance expenditures. As for myself I am not afraid of the label “terrorism;” however, I am very concerned with all acts of violent aggression and the way our society is reacting to them. Dave Carter, Castlegar

▼ YOUTH SPORTS

United effort makes soccer club a winner To the editor: The Kelowna United Soccer community would like to take this opportunity to thank the board of directors of Kelowna United: Mark Krehel, Wendy Hazell, Toni MacKelden, Rod MacLean, Brian Dewar, Jason Neale, Mark Slade, Dan Turner, Surinder Gosal, Chad Bigattini, Henk Kampman and Dave Lommer; as well as the Kelowna United staff: Dante Zanatta, Lorrie Leins, Chris MacKelden, Tom Flanagan, Myrna Nimmo for all their hard work and commitment to the club and to the overall development of youth soccer in the community. In recent years, forward-thinking leadership has seen the club develop

ties to the prestigious New York Soccer Club, opening up opportunities for young players to travel to New York to play and train there. In order to provide local chances for enthusiastic young players, more hard work by this progressive board has resulted in KU offering annual international soccer camps. These camps are led by professional coaches from all over the globe, giving soccer-minded youth an affordable international experience without leaving Kelowna. Ongoing development of coaches is being addressed and many learning opportunities are provided for them to ensure that they are able to develop their skills as teach-

ers and motivators, enabling them to train their teams and bring out the best in their players. Now, as groundbreaking begins on the new soccer dome, it is evident that much initiative, hard work and diligence has gone into the process leading up to this day. Years of planning and many volunteer hours are required to address the complex administrative challenges to be overcome when putting together a privately funded project requiring a partnership with the city. Through it all, the competently led KU volunteers and staff have remained determined and will soon see their vision of the new KU soccer dome become a reality. An awesome result from an awesome

group of individuals. Thank you to all of you for sacrificing many personal hours to make Kelowna United the club that players and parents

alike are proud to represent. Myrna Nimmo, Kelowna United Football Club

Pot crusader pans police weed ticketing idea Jeff Nagel BLACK PRESS

A recommendation to let police treat simple marijuana possession as a ticketing offence is being opposed by the head of a provincial campaign to decriminalize pot.

Dana Larsen, whose group Sensible BC is set to kick off a petition campaign next month to force a referendum on marijuana policy, says the new resolution from the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police is counter-productive. The chiefs’ association argues the option of writing tickets to punish people caught with less than 30 grams of marijuana would be less costly and time-intensive than sending criminal charges through the courts. “It’s a bad idea,” Larsen said. “It’s actually going to result in more cannabis users being persecuted.” He said police in B.C. issue warnings or write reports on 18,000 people a year for use of marijuana without laying charges. “They would all get tickets under that new system,” Larsen predicted. He said the proposal could confuse B.C. voters as canvassers prepare to ask them to sign a petition that would press for a referendum on a proposed

law blocking use of B.C. police resources for enforcing simple possession. “Our solution does not involve fines or alternative penalties, it involves leaving people alone.” If Ottawa embraced broader legislative reform, he added, it should simply legalize pot. “I’d rather see revenue generated through legalization, regulation and taxation rather than fining the people who happen to be unlucky enough to get caught by police,” he said. Larsen noted ticket-empowered police would still have the ability to charge some pot users, raising questions about potential selective enforcement. The federal government, which would have to change federal legislation to enable marijuana ticketing, indicated it has no plans to legalize or decriminalize pot possession. Vancouver Police Chief Const. Jim Chu, president of the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police, said the organization does not support cannabis decriminalization or legalization.

Chu said police now must either turn a blind eye or lay charges when they encounter pot use, and ticketing would offer a new, more effective enforcement option. The chiefs also say pot users who are ticketed for simple possession would avoid a criminal record that can block them from international travel, getting a job or gaining citizenship. SFU criminology professor Rob Gordon called the resolution a significant shift that indicates police across the country – not just in B.C. – are ready for reform. “It’s the thin edge of the wedge, it’s the beginning of a move away from the criminal enforcement approach,” Gordon said. He said Sensible BC campaigners are pushing for change too fast and said ticketing would be part of a more gradual move to alter public thinking and government policy. “When marijuana policy is normalized, I think we’ll look back at this period and say this is when the process began

for the shift from criminalization towards regulation and taxation,” Gordon said. “If you go slowly, you can help people shift their thinking from their current belief that marijuana use is some sort of demonic activity to recognizing it as just another recreational drug that does minimal harm and the sky will not fall.” He said he wouldn’t be surprised if B.C. liquor stores sell pot within five years. Although Prime Minister Stephen Harper has been firmly against marijuana reform, Liberal leader Justin Trudeau’s call for change this summer in B.C. re-ignited the issue. Gordon said Harper won’t be able to ignore the chiefs’ resolution, although he might send it to a committee for a lengthy period of study. He said there are signs even Harper is positioning his government for a pivot on the issue, noting the recent cabinet shuffle saw the departure of several law-and-order hardliners, including Vic Toews.

Approximately 30 per cent of produce is discarded after purchase because of spoilage. That is a large waste of money. Contrary to popular belief, many fruits and vegetables should not be stored in the refrigerator in sealed bags. This is because some fruits, like apples, emit ethelyne gas which promotes ripening and many leafy greens need to breathe in order to stay moist. Taking the time to store produce properly can keep vegetables and fruits perky for a lot longer. Here are a few of my favourite tips. Check the settings in your fruit or vegetable bins to see if they are set to high or low for moisture. High moisture helps leafy things like chard, lettuces, or bok choy and root or thick skinned vegetables, such as potatoes or melons, prefer low moisture. Greens can be washed,

Rose Soneff spun dry, and wrapped in a paper towel and placed loosely in a plastic bag. Leafy greens, celery, green onions, and herbs can be placed upright in containers with a bit of water and loosely covered with a plastic bag. Most other vegetables and fruit should not be washed until just before being served. Avoid storing onions with potatoes. Onions emit a gas that can cause potatoes to sprout. Keep onions and potatoes away from each other and store each in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place. Fruit and vegetables with thicker skin or rinds should be stored in cool, preferably dark places

(seven to 10 C). Most homes today do not have a place that is in this temperature range, so you are very lucky if you have an old-fashioned root cellar. If you do not have a root cellar, there are some specialty products you can use such as vegetable storage bags specially designed to let gas out and keep moisture in. Check stored produce regularly to see if anything is beginning to spoil. Discard spoiling produce right away to prevent it from spreading to other produce. Some produce departments have manuals available that describe differing preparation and storage of produce. Check with your store’s produce manager. Buying in bulk may seem like a bargain, but if the produce spoils then the savings are gone. Ask friends or family if they want to split that 10-kilogram bag of onions. Rose Soneff is a community nutritionist with Interior Health.

▼ WAGES

CLC boss says Kelowna better with unions Researchers at the Canadian Labour Congress have found that, on average, unionized workers in Kelowna earn $5.14 an hour more than non-unionized workers and CLC president Ken Georgetti says that benefits the entire community. “That extra money in the pockets of unionized employees translates into an added $3.8 million every week paid

into the local economy,” said Georgetti. “We know that unionized workers who earn a middle class, family-supporting wage spend their pay cheques close to home and that supports local businesses and the community.” CLC researchers surveyed wages in 30 Canadian communities and found that centres with more union members support a richer mix of busi-

nesses and services. “But it doesn’t end there,” said Georgetti. “Many of the things first won by unions are enjoyed by all workers today, including minimum wages, overtime pay, workplace safety standards, vacation pay and parental leaves.” Georgetti said unions also advocate at local, provincial and federal government levels

for things such as public health care and an improved Canada Pension Plan. “We believe in the old saying that what we want for ourselves we seek for all.” Georgetti added that being in a union is especially important for women and younger workers. In B.C., women who belong to unions earn an average of $6.91

an hour more than do women in non-unionized workplaces. In Canada as a whole, young workers, aged 15 to 29, earn an additional $5.53 an hour if they belong to a union. “We in the labour movement take satisfaction in knowing that we have helped to build a stronger and more secure economy for everyone in Kelowna and all of B.C.,” said Georgetti.

The importance of strength training

SCHOOL DISTRICT NO. 23 (CENTRAL OKANAGAN) 2013-2014 SCHOOL YEAR SUMMER REGISTRATION PERIOD AUGUST 27, AUGUST 28 and AUGUST 29, 2013

Krista Smith CONTRIBUTOR

As a physiotherapist, I have found that while many people engage in aerobic exercise, including walking, jogging, cycling and swimming, on a regular basis, few incorporate a resistance or strength workout into their weekly routine. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention lists numerous benefits to strength training, including decreased pain due to osteoarthritis, increased bone density, reduced risk of fractures, and reduced risk of falls, improved long-term weight control, improved sleep quality, improved self-esteem and self-confidence, and a reduced risk of heart disease. Strength training is also an essential component to recovery after a musculoskeletal injury involving ligaments, tendons, muscles and bone, once a fracture is healed. It can also be extremely beneficial for decreasing pain and improving function in those with degenerative changes, such as knee and hip osteoarthritis. The World Health Organization recommends that adults aged 18 and above perform strength activities for the major muscle groups two or more days a week. You do not need to belong to a gym or have access to weight machines to incorporate strength exercises into your daily routine. Using your own body weight, and in some cases a stability ball, a resistance band and small free weights, you can achieve an effective strength workout. Physiotherapists offer individual strength training sessions, normally 30 to 60 minutes in length, and taught by a registered physiotherapists. These sessions are appropriate for athletes who want to ensure a full recovery after injury and a safe return to sport; employees who would like to improve their posture to reduce muscle strain at work; and older individuals who would like to maintain their function and independence by strengthening their muscles and improving their balance. The sessions are also suitable for people who have been in a motor vehicle accident or those with chronic low back pain who would like to regain their muscle endurance and improve their core stability to return to activities of daily living. These exercise sessions are designed to teach you safe and effective exercises targeting your individual needs. The goal of these sessions is to develop a program using relatively little equipment, that you can complete independently at home on a weekly basis.

More safety improvements are ahead for Westside Road

o balance a budget, you sometimes have to make some tough choices. And unfortunately, that sometimes means telling people “no.” But balancing a budget also means making investments for the future—and projects that are needed today. Westside Road fits into both categories. I heard a lot about Westside Road around the caucus table from (former Westside-Kelowna MLA) Ben Stewart, who consistently and persistently championed the need to make improvements as soon as possible. He was also a frequent visitor to the B.C. Minister of Transportation’s office, making the case that

MLA’S REPORT

Christy Clark Westside Road needed attention now. As anyone who has driven the full 65-kilometre stretch knows, Westside Road is a narrow, winding route that wasn’t designed for the volume of traffic it sees today. The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure estimates it serves about 1,000 vehicles per day—a number which more than doubles to 2,500 along some sec-

tions in the summer. And while any road would struggle to accommodate vastly more traffic than it was intended for, it’s simply not acceptable for BCAA to name it B.C.’s worst road several years in a row. We need to fix it. And we are. During Ben’s time as MLA, he worked closely with the ministry as they undertook a full assessment to identify priorities and options. Many of those have since been acted on. Since 2008, the province has invested $10.3 million on Westside Road. This includes a significant amount of realigning, paving and seven different slow-movingvehicle pullout projects. Of that $10.3 million,

$6.5 million has been invested in 2013 alone. That’s a significant investment by any standard, but there’s more to be done. When I made the decision to run in Westside-Kelowna, I knew Westside Road would be one of my biggest challenges, just as it had been for Ben. On July 11, I announced an additional $1 million for paving between Jenny’s Creek and Caesar’s Landing. This is in addition to the $5.5 million in work that was already underway this year. These are necessary infrastructure investments for a still-growing community. And if you’re having trouble reconciling a

balanced budget—and sometimes having to say no to spending—with making significant investments, consider this: In the ’90s, the NDP attempted to cover for reckless spending by freezing all capital spending—in other words, they stopped investing in the future. That’s not a viable long-term solution for a growing province, and a growing economy. Leaving our kids with an infrastructure debt isn’t much better than leaving them with a bill to pay.

Testing for thyroid problems

Band to play free reunion tour concert in hometown

ow thyroid function, called hypothyroidism, can cause many physical and mental problems including obesity, diabetes, depression, poor memory, high cholesterol, fatigue, and more. Low thyroid function is highly under-diagnosed. Hypothyroidism is much more common than people—including doctors—think it is. In fact, it is actually at epidemic proportions. Thyroid statistics from the Thyroid Foundation of Canada report that approximately two Canadians in 100 have hypothyroidism and more than 10 million Canadians—or one in three—suffer some form of thyroid condition. Of these, 50 per cent are undiagnosed. The biggest problem in a missed diagnosis is the way that thyroid levels are tested. A minimum of three tests should be conducted and up to five tests for a more comprehensive assessment. Unfortunately, the Ministry of Health and Guidelines for Physicians of B.C. advise just one or two tests (if the first test is outside a broad range), which can be very misleading. Even the United States has tightened its normal value range to capture an earlier diagnosis. Patients with low thyroid function will always suffer from symptoms of low thyroid for many months, even years, before the basic one-test thyroid screen is positive. Patients with depression tend to have higher rates of hypothyroidism (about 80 per cent of thyroid receptors are actually in the brain), and women seem more likely to be affected than men. Why is low thyroid so common? There are many factors contributing to the prevalence of hypothyroidism and I believe a lot of them are environmental. There are three main types of thyroid hormones: TSH, T-3, and T-4. T-3 is the most important active thyroid hormone in the body. However, in order to make active T-3 the body

HEALTHY LIFESTYLES

Dr. Emina Jasarevic has to convert inactive T-4 via an enzyme process, and therein lies the problem. It turns out that this enzyme process is highly susceptible to interference from stress, depression, dieting, environmental toxins (plastics, heavy metals), and other disease states. Consider, for a moment, all the plastic in our environment and food packaging. Xenoestrogens found in plastics are hormone mimickers with close chemical resemblance of both thyroid and estrogen hormones and can displace our internal hormones, in a sense, “deactivating” them. The most common cause of low thyroid function is Hashimotos’ autoimmune thyroiditis and it can be detected with thyroid antibody tests. For patients who are really having difficulty in detection or management, I would order a test called reverse T-3. Even if your doctor has told you your thyroid tests are normal, but you suffer from the following symptoms such as fatigue, depression, impaired memory, increased sensitivity to cold, constipation, dry skin, unexplained weight gain, elevated cholesterol, muscle weakness, aches, tenderness and stiffness, joint pain, stiffness or swelling, heavier or irregular menstrual periods, thin, course or dry hair and slowed heart rate, you may need to be evaluated more closely Extensive thyroid testing options and natural therapies can be provided as part of an integrative medicine program. If you suffer from hypothyroidism symptoms, naturopathic medicine could dramatically improve your quality of life. www.thecorekelowna.com

Kelowna’s own Grapes of Wrath will play a special, free concert Aug. 28 in Waterfront Park as part of the final Wednesday Night Showcase of the 2013 Parks Alive! entertainment season. “We’re always looking for unique elements to include in our Parks Alive! program each year,” said Renata Mills, executive director of Festivals Kelowna. “In fact, we started planning this event last

October when we learned the Grapes of Wrath were touring. When we heard about the reunion tour and knew the boys were from Kelowna, we connected the dots with timing and our partners, and voila, a great end of summer show was created.” The Grapes of Wrath formed in Kelowna in 1983 by brothers Chris and Tom Hooper and childhood friend Kevin Kane. They took their name from the Steinbeck

novel which, ironically, none of the band had ever read. Signed to Vancouver’s Nettwork Records in 1984, they quickly rose to critical and commercial success with Canadian industry legends like Tom Cochrane and Sarah McLachlan working with the band, leading to platinum-selling albums and industry acclaim. Following the band’s break-up in the early 1990s, they reconnected in 2010 and began to work

on new material, resulting in a new album in 2013, titled High Road, their first in more than 20 years. The first single off the disc, Good to See You, is already garnering rave reviews with its upbeat, catchy sound. “The timing of this special Parks Alive! concert couldn’t be better,” said Mills. “After talking with the band, we discovered that this show on Aug. 28 will be almost 30 years

to the day of the very first Grapes of Wrath show. How cool is that?” The concert will run from 6 until 9 p.m. and also feature the winner of the K96.3 artist development program, produced by Music BC, as the opening act. Families are encouraged to bring a picnic, blankets or low lawn chairs. Admission is free, but Parks Alive! will accept cash donations to help its program.

are you the apple of his eye? Have you ever heard someone make this remark about a father: “His son or daughter is the apple of his eye”? This phrase is known as an idiom, a string of words people use that have come to have a certain meaning for us. The phrase’s meaning is not found by analyzing the individual words but by looking at what the words point to. We use the phrase “it’s raining cats and dogs” all the time. This phrase does not mean that Calico cats and French poodles fell from the clouds, it means the rain came down so hard and the drops were so big that: “It was like dogs and cats were dropping from the sky.” The phrase “apple of his eye” does not mean that a beholder sees his beloved as an apple, a piece of fruit; its meaning is much, much deeper. As it turns out, the phrase “apple of his/ your eye” was first used in the Holy Bible. It is found in these four Old Testament verses: (1) “In a desert land he found him, in a barren and howling waste. He shielded him and cared for him; he guarded him as the apple of his eye” (Deuteronomy 32:10); (2) “Keep me as the apple of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wings” (Psalm 17:8); and (3) “For this is what the LORD Almighty says: ‘After he has honored me and has sent me against the nations that have plundered you—for whoever touches you touches the apple of his eye—” (Zachariah 2:8). In Zechariah 2:8, the Hebrew phrase used is bava ‘ayin. The Hebrew word bava is generally agreed to mean “apple” and the word “ayin” is translated “eye”, therefore the phrase used in Zechariah 2:8 literally refers to the “apple of the eye.” However, the original Hebrew for this idiom found in Deuteronomy 32:10 and Psalm 17:8 is ‘iyshown ‘ayin and is literally translated as “Little Man of the Eye.” These words point to the tiny reflection of yourself that you can see when you gaze into the iris or colored part of another person’s eye. The common apple is roughly shaped like a human eyeball. The apple’s skin typically has patches of red, yellow and green, thus resembling the human iris or colored part of the human eye. The shiny skin of the apple reflects the light which shines on it, just like the iris reflects the image of the objects that stand before the eye of the beholder. For this reason, Deuteronomy 32:10 and Psalm 17:8 are translated “apple of the eye”. The Bible clearly teaches that God is spirit. The “Our Father who art in Heaven” that Jesus taught us to pray to, does not have human eyes. However, God used His creation, the apple and the human eye, to help us understand His relationship with us and what to pray to pray for. In Deuteronomy 32:10, Moses reminded God’s chosen people that the Lord had always been watching them. When they were enslaved by the Egyp-

tians and began to suffer as a result, He saw their misery and sent Moses to lead them out of captivity. Moses went to Pharaoh and made a simple demand that Pharaoh let God’s people go. When Pharaoh refused, God used Moses to unleash ten plagues on Egypt. In response, Pharaoh finally agreed to let God’s people go. The people left with the blessing of Egypt’s people; they gave them gold, silver and other gifts. Pharaoh then changed his mind and sent his army to capture God’s chosen people and bring them back. The army caught up to the people at the Red Sea. God saw their plight. He parted the sea and His people walked to the other shore. When the Egyptian army tried to follow, they drowned. God brought His people to the very edge of the land He had promised them and promised to give them the land by His mighty hand. God saw them reject His promise. God was angered by their refusal but He did not shut His divine eye or turn away. He banished them to wander the desert for forty years. However, for all that time He watched them. He gave them a pillar of fire to enlighten them at night and a cloud to shield them from the harsh desert sun. He saw their hunger and thirst, and satisfied their hunger with manna and quail, and their thirst with water from a rock. He watched them when Moses went up the mountain to receive God’s Law. He saw them worship a golden calf. Once again, He did not shut His eye or turn His face away. He gave them the Law, a law that was for their own good. He led them to the land He had promised them. God inspired Joshua and empowered His people, and He watched as they took and settled the land He had promised them. God’s eyes were always on His people; their reflection was always in the iris of God’s divine eye. He watched them and saved them when they were obedient and disobedient. It is for this reason that King David prayed the way he did in Psalm 17:8. He asked God to keep him as a reflection in God’s divine eye in the same way He had kept His chosen people in the “apple of His eye” when they were good and when they were bad. God answered David’s prayer. David declared that God watched over him the way a shepherd constantly watches and cares for his sheep. He watched David through the deep dark valleys of life, the valley of the shadow of death. God’s promise to keep His people as the “apple of His eye” is most perfectly and profoundly fulfilled in Jesus. The Son of God had eyes of flesh that reflected the image of God’s chosen people in them. Jesus’ eyes first reflected the image of His mother and father, then the images of His disciples, the crowds He taught, and the little children; the blind, deaf, dumb, lame and demon-possessed people Jesus healed. Jesus’ eyes also reflected

the images of the religious leaders who constantly challenged His teaching and miracles, falsely convicted Him of blasphemy, beat Him, scourged Him, mocked Him, and nailed Him to the cross. He watched as His disciples betrayed, denied and fled from Him. Jesus did not close His eyes and turn away from them. His constant plea was for all to turn and repent. Looking directly at those who were killing Him, He asked His Father to forgive them, for they were acting in ignorance. God kept Jesus in the “apple of his divine eye,” from His immaculate conception through the placement of Jesus’ body in the tomb. God watched Jesus’ resurrection from the dead and His ascension into heaven. The only time God took His eye off Jesus was when He suffered on the cross. God had put all our sins on Jesus as He suffered on the cross and God could not look at the sin on Jesus. (That is why it went black on the first Good Friday). I want you to know that, as God watches you, He wants to see a certain reflection in the apple of your eye: “Keep my commands and you will live; guard my teachings as the apple of your eye.” (Proverbs 7:2). He wants His Word, reflected in your eyes. God’s word lets us see God as our Creator, Jesus as our Savior and the Holy Spirit as our Guide. In God’s Word, we hear Jesus’ promise to be our Good Shepherd and always keep us as the apple of His eye. He will watch us when we are good and when we are bad; rejoicing in the good and saddened by the bad but always urging our contrition, repentance and desire for forgiveness and new life. When we fall, He sees it. He will pick us up, clean us up and move us on our way. Jesus also promises that if we believe in Him, there is resurrection and life after death. He promises that we will still be a reflection in His eye after we die; however, His person will be a reflection in our new immortal and eternal eyes. God’s eye can be on you and God’s Word can be in your eyes Sunday mornings at 9:00 and 10:30 at Grace Lutheran Church. All are welcome. I would love to see your reflection in my eye soon. In Christ, Pastor Ed Skutshek

Paul Latimer After holding town hall meetings in communities across the country and speaking with Canadians about the issues affecting their health, the CMA reports poverty is the top factor in determining the health of our citizens. Poverty is the issue running beneath most of the social factors that affect our health. Inadequate housing and nutrition are two of the biggest and most obvious factors directly linked with poverty. Sub-optimal childhood experiences, lack of access to services and other environmental factors also come into play. These are having a negative impact on the health status of many Canadians and if we want to improve health in this country, we need to address the issue of poverty and its attendant ills in addition to making improvements to our healthcare system. The CMA makes 12 recommendations for moving forward, including increasing the amount of affordable housing available and expanding the housing first approach to chronic mental illness. The report also calls for creation of national food security and prescription drug programs. The CMA also suggested the government launch a pilot project to test the guaranteed annual income approach to poverty reduction. All of these measures will cost the government money and require some foresight. They may not be popular in the short term and they may be difficult for many Canadians to get behind if they involve raising taxes or re-allocating funding from other places. The reality is, our healthcare system is not equipped to continue operating the way it has been. If we do not take steps to address the issues that are placing a burden on the healthcare system, the costs will simply keep going up.

▼ ELVIS IMPERSONATOR

Tribute artist among the best Kristi Patton BLACK PRESS

Adam Fitzpatrick was ready to run a victory lap, despite not being named the overall winner at the biggest Elvis tribute artist contest in the world, held in Memphis last week. “My heart was pumping and I was confident but at the same time just being in that top five was amazing. “Honestly, never did I think I would be in the top five and I did not expect to come in second place overall,” said Fitzpatrick. “I had to hold back when they called my name because second is not the winner, but I wanted to do a victory lap on that stage so badly.” The Elvis tribute artist won his way to the Ultimate Elvis Competition semifinals in Memphis after being crowned the top professional at the Penticton Pacific Northwest Elvis Festival in June. Last year at the Ultimate contest he finished in the top 15 and he went in this time with the goal of making top 10. He sang I Can’t Stop Loving You, a song he performed at the Penticton finals, to break into the top 12. Six tribute artists were advanced to the top 10 and Fitzpatrick had to battle it out for one of the four remaining spots. He slipped on his leather outfit and performed One Night which earned him a spot in the top 10. Fitzpatrick next performed one of his favourite songs, Bridge Over Troubled Water, and then Steamroller Blues, launching him into the top

five. “When I got called into the top five it started to get shocking but actually relaxed me a little more because I couldn’t believe how far I had made it. Every time I went on stage I felt more and more comfortable. I just had so much fun,” he said. “So much of it was a blur last year because it was my first time. I picked fun songs that I could connect with and have fun with on stage.” His final song was also one he performed for the finale as the pro category winner in Penticton, Wonder of You, a ballad that has sentimental meaning for the tribute artist as it is his parents’ song, and one he also holds close with his girlfriend. “It has a lot of meaning. My girlfriend Sandi came down to Memphis with her parents, my parents were there and some of our friends. I wasn’t even thinking of Wonder of You for my top 5 song and it just came out of my mouth. When it did I pointed up at Sandi in the crowd and she knew it was for her,” said Fitzpatrick. It was Dean Z who won the berth to the semifinals at the Rockin’ Elvis Fest at Pala Casino and beat out Fitzpatrick for the first place prize of $20,000 and a contract with Legends In Concert. The local Elvis tribute artist said the judges chose the right winner and Fitzpatrick walks away with $3,000 in prize money for second place. Backstage he had Legends In Concert approach him about a

ELVIS IMPERSONATOR Adam Fitzpatrick wanted to do a victory lap when he was named the second best ‘Elvis’ at a contest in Memphis. possible contract. “Hopefully I will be starting up with them in the new year. Really the title of Ultimate Elvis is great, but it is not what I am going for. I am doing this to move forward in my career and Legends has been my dream the past couple of years to do those kinds of shows. It means I will always play with a band, they do the Elvis, Elvis, Elvis tour and bigger productions. It also means a lot less stuff I have to worry about on the business side of it,” said Fitzpatrick. Making it to the top five wasn’t the only memorable moment for the tribute artist, the semifinalists also were given the chance to perform at Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital for a surprise

party for the patients. Children and their families watched as the tribute artists belted out the hits of The King. It was just in the spirit of Elvis, who was known for donating his time and funds to so many in need when he was alive. “It was really cool. It was a different experience and rewarding. We were all complaining how early it was in the morning but then you see these infants in the hospital and I know of two of the three babies we saw had never left the hospital in their life. It makes you re-evaluate and look at your life differently,” said Fitzpatrick. While continuing to soak in these experiences and riding his success, Fitzpatrick has no plans to stop and is already booked

up until the middle of November with shows throughout B.C., Alberta and Saskatchewan. “I want to make sure everything I am doing fits into my life, but I am really excited to see what happens in the new year. It is going to be a change of pace and maybe a lot more travel, but I am really looking forward to it,” he said. Fitzpatrick is in Alberta this weekend for the Blue Suede Music Festival and will return for performances in Penticton on Sept. 13 at Skaha Meadows Golf Club and Sept. 15 at the Cleland Theatre for the Louisiana Hayride show.

Susan Steen Elysium for the wealthy few. Needless to say there will be trouble. This film will appeal to the District 9 fans in its approach but is a politically charged show which touches on social inequality, illegal immigration, healthcare and more. It has action, it has drama, it has really bad characters, but it lacks some spark that would set it apart from the pack. Having said that, on its opening night Elysium took in over $11 million and was in top place with We’re The Millers in second and Disney’s Cars in third. So, to recap, the rich have lives of wealth and privilege, the poor live in squalor and life is a constant struggle—not much different from today really except that we all share this planet so the difference is a bit closer to home. What I did find interesting is that the movie captures, as only Hollywood can, the abject poverty and slum-like conditions on Earth in the year 2154 but this film was shot in Surrey, B.C.,

The year is 2154, and if you thought the middle class was shrinking now, it only gets way worse in the future, as only the very rich and the very poor remain. And the gap isn’t just widening— they don’t even live on the same planet. By 2154, Earth is so riddled with disease, overpopulation and poverty, that the wealthy have just abandoned it for the greener pastures of Elysium, which actually means a conception of the afterlife that evolved over time and was maintained by some Greek religious sects. Admission to them was initially reserved for mortals related to gods and heroes—close, because the wealthy of this Elysium enjoy privileged lives with no disease, no pollution and robots who do their bidding—seemingly impenetrable. Until a buffed-up tattooed Matt Damon, Max DeCosta who, after a radiation accident is desperate to gain entry into the disease-free Elysium, where machines can seek out and remedy any ailment known to man. The keeper of security on this space station in the sky is Secretary Rhodes, played by Jodie Foster, a ball-buster of a type A personality who takes no prisoners and has no conscience when it comes to keeping the sanctity of

FLYING OFF THE SHELF

HARDCOVER FICTION

Before & After School Care Brandi’s Story I’m a single working mom of two elementary aged children and it was extremely important for me to find care for my children that was close to home, safe and affordable. When I discovered the YMCA offered an out of school care program right in the school my children attended (Quigley Elementary), I was thrilled! I enrolled both of my children into the program and was further surprised that the Y offered financial assistance. Because I was a working full time with no other means of financial support, I received a further reduction in my fees, which was a huge relief. I am forever grateful to the donors to the Y’s Strong Kids Campaign who have given my children more than I ever could have provided. The Y’s out of school care program is not just any kind of care…they have incredibly dedicated staff who consistently exceed my expectations, the kids are encouraged to expand their thinking and knowledge, they are consistently meeting new and different people, and they are kept busy with a variety of programming, swimming and living the Y values. The program has empowered them to come out of their shell and to be more confident.

Hurtful letter about autistic boy draws international ire

ticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me is a phrase that we all grew up with. According to Wikipedia, it is a nursery rhyme “that persuades the child victim of name-calling to ignore the taunt, to refrain from physical retaliation, and to remain calm and good-natured.”

ACHIEVING JUSTICE

Paul Hergott When I was growing up, I don’t recall turning those words in my mind to hold myself back

from behaving badly in response to name-calling and other hurtful behaviour. For me, it was more of a mantra to help shield myself against hurt feelings. I don’t remember it being particularly helpful. Hurtful behaviour can be quite extreme and the resulting emotional hurt can be very painful. Sometimes, emotional hurts can be so painful

that a medically diagnosed emotional injury, requiring psychological or psychiatric care, will be suffered. My column topic this week was inspired by what has become international news of a letter that was dropped off at the home of an autistic child in Durham, Ontario. The contents of that letter were hurtful in the

extreme. The letter includes such horrendous language as “…they should take whatever non retarded body parts he possesses and donate it to science,” and “Do the right thing and move or euthanize him!!!” Fortunately, the child himself seems not to have the capacity to have understood what had occurred, and news of the

letter has resulted in overwhelming support for the child and his family; the show of support being a beautiful silver lining to a very dark cloud. News of the letter has also resulted in a call for severe repercussions against the author, a mother in the neighbourhood. The first headlines I saw had to do with wheth-

er or not the letter constitutes a “hate crime” that could be prosecuted by the police. That particular charge will not be pursued because, while definitely hateful, the conduct does not fall within the definition of hate crime in the Criminal Code. An explanation for why that is

NEWS ▼ HERGOTT

No legal recourse is available Hergott from A26

dwas given in an interview with University of Alberta law professor Steven Penney and can be found online. According to Professor Penney, to be a hate crime a communication must be public (not a private letter) and promote hatred against a group of people “distinguished by colour, race, religion, ethnic origin or sexual orientation.” The severely handicapped are not included within that list. I do not have criminal law expertise. I am more familiar with the civil law, which uses lawsuits as an enforcement mechanism. On my review of one internet “chat” exchange, I saw a call for the author of the letter to be sued. The civil justice system is an ever evolving one. Over time, as people have done bad things that have caused other people loss, the civil law has evolved to provide mechanisms for compensating the loss. It is this evolving sys-

tem that enables me to compel negligent drivers who cause injuries in car crashes to pay (through their insurance company) fair compensation for the injured person’s injuries and losses. What about in this case? Writing an extremely hurtful letter, dripping with hate, is most certainly a “bad thing” that would have caused loss in the form of hurt feelings. There happens to be a mechanism called the negligent (careless) or intentional infliction of mental suffering. A recent statement of the law of intentional infliction of mental suffering, in Skibinski v. Community Living British Columbia, an Oct. 26, 2010, decision, is as follows: “To recover damages for the intentional infliction of mental suffering, the plaintiff must prove the defendant’s conduct was flagrant and extreme, must have been plainly calculated to produce the harm that was produced and that it resulted

114th Annual

in a visible and provable injury”. In fact, the injury need not actually be “visible” in the literal sense of the word. The court clarifies that the conduct must cause “a medically recognized form of mental illness. Emotional stress or mental anguish and despair are not generally accepted…”. In this case, I expect the grandmother recipient of the letter who cares for the child likely has very thick skin, and while she would undoubtedly have been emotionally hurt, I would be surprised if the letter results in depression or other psychological injury. Absent that injury, there is no pursuable civil claim. It would seem that there is no legal recourse against this incredibly hurtful conduct any more than there is recourse for the name calling type bullying experienced by children on the playground. Unlike the play-

ground, however, society has seemed to jump in with both feet to mitigate against the hurt caused to this family and to “punish” by way of public expression of abhorrence, the conduct itself. I will conclude with my appeal to those of Durham, Ontario that however much the conduct may be deserving of punishment, my hope is that the Wikipedia description of the purpose of the “Sticks and Stones” rhyme is achieved, namely: “…to refrain from physical retaliation, and to remain calm and good-natured”, such that societally delivered punishment is limited to a public denunciation and not any manner or form of physical retaliation. This column is intended to provide general information about injury claims. It is not a substitute for retaining a lawyer to provide legal advice specifically pertaining to your case.

Province should review more roadside driving bans: NDP But justice minister sees no problem after suspension overturned.

Jeff Nagel BLACK PRESS

The NDP’s justice critic is urging the province to overhaul its process for reviewing roadside driving bans imposed on drinking

z O . s r D staff and

drivers in light of a recent court ruling. Leonard Krog said the government should proactively offer to re-review other cases if the procedure for weighing challenges turns out to have been

incorrect. The B.C. Supreme Court this month quashed one roadside driving ban that had been upheld in the review process, deciding a report setting out guidelines for use of alcohol screening devices was inadmissible. Defence lawyers say the ruling could be grounds for many more roadside prohibitions to be appealed. Krog said the government must be scrupulously fair in how it handles challenges of the penalties, because they take effect immediately and are dispensed at the roadside by police, not a judge. “In our zeal to get drunk drivers off the road, which is something we all share, it doesn’t mean you get to disregard the rights of citizens to fairness in the hearing process,” he said. “It clearly opens up

the possibility of many other people asking for judicial reviews.” Government lawyers are still reviewing the implications of the overturned decision. But Justice Minister Suzanne Anton said the ruling appears to be largely procedural and unlikely to threaten the three-yearold legislation underpinning the Immediate Roadside Prohibitions. “When you have a new program, you can expect that people are going to take runs at it,” she said. “But fundamentally, the legislation remains very sound.” Anton said about 1,500 roadside prohibitions are issued each month and just two per cent on average are successfully challenged. Alcohol-related fatalities have plunged 51 per cent since the expanded system of suspensions kicked in nearly three years ago—replacing criminal prosecutions of many impaired drivers— and the government estimates 143 lives have been saved. Anton said the regulations continue to have a

Documents recently disclosed under Free-

dom of Information show drivers who challenge their rulings to the Superintendent of Motor Vehicles aren’t told if the screening device used to test them was later found to be inaccurate. They’re merely told their driving prohibition was deemed invalid, without provision of specific reasons, usually weeks after the vehicle was impounded and the licence suspended. The province pays towing and storage bills of appellants who are successful.

tion to our general manager (Glen Lucas) to call (MLAs) Steve Thomson, Norm Letnick and (MP) Ron Cannan,” said Dukhia. Dukhia said there wasn’t enough time available with the politicians to view every property that was damaged by hail on Aug. 12. “There were lots of people affected…there is so much damage.” The BCFGA president said more than 20 growers likely had severe damage to their crops. “The (politicians) saw

three properties—they got the message that it was a disaster. We couldn’t go to each individual orchard.” Boparai, 52, was the Capital News’ 2012 Newsmaker of the Year. In September 2012, the then-Okanagan Tree Fruit Co-operative expelled Boparai for failing to live up to the terms of his contract and shipping his apples to an independent packer instead of the co-op where he was a member. Last December, Boparai, the BCFGA’s first Indo-Canadian president, resigned from the organization’s top post after

serving less than a year as president. “I came to make change. Sometimes my aggressive approach was not popular, but it needed to be done,” Boparai told Capital News in December 2012. He was released on bail Tuesday, with several conditions that include not contacting Karmjit or Avineet Gill, not consuming alcohol or illegal drugs and not possessing weapons. Boparai is expected to be back in court Tuesday, Aug. 27. wpaterson@kelownacapnews.com Twitter: @PatersonWade

The game promises to be hotly contested as the current tally shows 14 wins for the old boys, 13 wins for the young guys, and three ties. “The kids have really put it to the old guys the last couple of years, so the old guys will be looking for some revenge,” said Rusty Ensign, who the game was originally named for30 years ago. “They’ll want to protect that slim lead they have, too.” An injury suffered

during a rugby match in 1983 rendered Ensign a quadriplegic. The first Ensign Cup was held that year to assist in the renovation of Rusty’s home. All subsequent games have been used as fundraisers for various causes in the Central Okanagan. Ensign continues to be a fervent supporter of local rugby. “My dream back then was to play rugby for Canada,” said Ensign. “I wasn’t able to do that, but we have a lot of good players from the Okanagan now who can shoot for that goal with some help. This game is way of turning a tragedy into something positive and giving young players a chance to succeed through bursaries.” This year’s edition of the Ensign Cup will be donating $1,000 towards the CORE (Central Oka-

will be bursary support for rugby players forever. The CRF donates $250 to the account which puts the fund $1,250 closer to the goal of $100,000 by 2015. The fund is currently at the $90,000 mark. Currently, at the 3.5 per cent interest it receives every year, it funds four $500 bursaries and one $1,000 Courtney Walls Bursary for graduating rugby players every year. Once it reaches its $100,000 goal, it will be five $500 awards and one for $1,000. The balance of proceeds will go to Kelowna Youth Rugby. The last several years, the Ensign Cup has raised close to $2,000. There will be a social at the Kelowna Riding Club on Saturday, including the raffling off of a signed Team Canada rugby jersey. whenderson@kelownacapnews.com

Rockets’ prospects gather for rookie camp Young prospects from all over Western Canada and the Pacific Northwest, along with their families, have converged in Kelowna this week to take part in one of the biggest Kelowna Rockets rookie camps ever. Close to 180 players will be split into 10 teams and will hit the ice for two games a day beginning on Thursday morning at 7:30 a.m. at Prospera Place, under the watchful eye of Rockets management, scouts and coaching staff. Head scout Lorne Frey says the team will be

looking for several things out of the players that will attend rookie camp. “We’re always looking for size, I think that’s important,” said Frey. “We’re looking for competitiveness and consistency, which is hard to find at this age level. “We want players that think the game well and have puck sense,” Frey said. “That’s part of the game you can’t teach.” Among the players, the majority of which are born in 1998 and will be heading back to minor hockey, are most of the

Rockets draft picks from this year’s WHL bantam draft, including first round pick Dillon Dube, a slick centre from Cochrane, Alta., who the Rockets picked with the 21st overall choice in the draft. A few injuries are starting to keep players at home, including second round pick Cal Foote, the son of former NHLer Adam Foote, who is injured and will not attend camp. Eighth-round pick Connor Bowey arrived in Kelowna with a familiar name as the young-

Like many players, the younger Bowey, a defenceman just like his older sibling, is looking to attract scouts’ attention and add size over the next year or so.

ExJays at Elks for kids’ camp

Former Toronto Blue Jays greats, including Hall of Fame inductee Roberto Alomar, are in Kelowna this week for the Blue Jays Honda Super Camp at Elks Stadium. The three-day camp, which begins Thursday, also features Jesse Barfield, Lloyd Moseby, Rance Mulliniks and Duane Ward. The camp provides instruction for kids of all abilities from 10 to 16 years of age. The Kelowna Falcons, who are assisting in the staging of the camp, are happy to have the Jays back in town. “We are excited and honoured to again be working with the Blue Jays,” says Falcons General Manager Mark Nonis. “This is a wonderful opportunity for baseball fans of all ages to see some of the best players ever to play for Canada’s team. And for the kids participating in the camp, it’s an unbelievable opportunity to learn.” The Kelowna dates are the final stop of the Blue Jays Honda Super Camps. The camp begins each day at 9 a.m. and runs until Saturday.

Among the matches on the 10-bout card will be Ken Huber from Kamloops defending his British Columbia cruiser weight title. It will be his fourth title defense since winning it in Kelowna last August in a fight that earned Ken ‘Fight of the Year’ honour,s to go along with a WBC Western

Canadian Championship. “I’ve had a pretty good year” smiled the champ. “Ken is probably the most active champion in the province,” saids Lawrence. “I have seen him in Prince George, Salmon Arm and Langley, now it’s time to bring him back to where it began for him” says Lawrence. “He is a local boy so it will be good for him to fight in front of his fans,” continues Lawrence. Huber will face the first ranked contender Palvir Atwal from Bisla MMA in Surrey. Huber and Atwal are getting to know each other well as this is their second clash

of 11 and 14. “I’m very focused on my young athletes” adds coach Lawrence. “They are the future of the club and our sport. I feel like our advanced youth namely Paul Jung are among British Colum-

New faces at Warriors camp The road to the 2014 RBC Cup begins on Thursday as the BCHL’s West Kelowna Warriors open their training camp at Royal LePage Place. On the ice, Matt Anholt takes over the reins from graduated captain Max French, with the Tribe set to boast a young but skilled forward group. Having recently signed a five-year extension with the team, head coach Rylan Ferster is ready for his third season with the club. However, Ferster has made some changes to his coaching staff, adding a wealth of experience and knowledge. Ryan Parent has joined the organization as an assistant coach and dir-

ector of scouting. Most recently a head coach / GM with the AJHL’s Lloydminster Bobcats, Parent has also coached in Europe, and now lives with his wife Janine in Vernon. “I am looking forward to working with good people in Rylan and Brent,” Parent says. “I believe successful organizations are built with fundamentally sound, teamfirst people who are in place for the right reasons. “This is the case in west Kelowna.” Another familiar name is also joining the mix, with Cory Cross set to embark on his second stint coaching in the BCHL. A veteran of more

than 600 NHL games, Cory Cross most recently worked on the coaching staff at the University of Calgary, where Coach Ferster says he excelled at working with young defencemen. C Brent Gough re-l turns as Ferster’s right-p hand man, returning form his fourth season withh the Warriors as Associaten Coach and Assistant General Manager. s Former assistants Coach Shae Naka hasB left the team to follow an opportunity with the Pur-t suit of Excellence Hockeyd Academy. i The Warriors will playj four exhibition games this year, including home con-i tests on Aug. 25 (Vees)a and Aug. 31 (Vipers). w t s K a i s

BOTHAM, JOHN “JACK” ANNAND

Passed away peacefully with daughter Penni and son-in-law Jack by his side on Saturday, August 17, 2013 at the age of 82. Survived by his loving wife Lois, daughter Penni (Jack) May, grandsons Tim (Norma Jean) May, Rusty (Lindsay) May and their families, his sister Iris Snook and many dearly loved nieces and nephews. Sadly predeceased by his brothers Mick and Glen and sister Frankie. Dad was born in Moose Jaw, SK on November 17, 1930 and moved with his family to Kelowna in the 1940’s, graduating from KSS in 1948. His life long career was with the Ministry of Environment as an engineering technician. Dad’s passions were basketball and golf and he was a member of the Kelowna Golf and Country Club for over 40 years. Mom and dad happily spent their winters months living in Kaui. Dad was madly in love with my mom and remained her dedicated and loving companion for 49 years. To me, he was an amazing father and I will miss him every day. He was also a fun loving uncle and a true friend. Jack and I would like to extend special thanks to the staff at Interior Health, KGH and Brandt’s Creek Mews, including Krystle, Dr. Eliason and Dr. MacKenzie for their kindness and exceptional care of Dad. At his request there will be no service.

“I love you more, Dad.”

MORGAN, BARBARA GRACE (LECKIE) February 17, 1925 – August 16, 2013 Barbara found peace in the early hours of Friday August 16. Predeceased by daughters Wendy Anne and Heather, Barbara is lovingly remembered by Howard, her husband of 65 years, by children Sher (John), David (Sandy), grandchildren Emma, Kurtis, Olivia, Grace and Kaleb, and by sister Pam Agassiz of Calgary. Born and raised in Kelowna, the eldest child of a pioneer family, Barbara was an “Okanagan girl” at heart. She swam beautifully, raced war canoes, was a Lady of the Lake contestant, and over the years canned enough fruit to sustain a village. Married in 1948 Barbara and Howard started their family in Osoyoos, returning to Kelowna in 1961. Barbara’s life reflected a tenacious spirit, abiding modesty, and deep love of family. She volunteered generously including to hospital and church auxiliaries and Diabetic Day Care. She enjoyed her bridge and golf foursomes, her ladies’ walking group, and all those trailer trips with old friends. Barbara cherished times spent with each grandchild. She and Howard travelled extensively. Barbara Grace will be remembered for her endless thoughtfulness to others, best-ever apple pie, and a certain sparkle in her kind blue eyes. Go in peace, beloved. Howard and family extend heartfelt thanks to the staff and nursing management of MountainView Village, to Dr. Joshua, and Reverend Catherine Dafoe-Hall. Memorial service 2 pm Saturday August 24 at St. Andrew’s Anglican Church, Okanagan Mission. Donations in lieu of flowers to CNIB, 1456 St Paul Street, Kelowna V1Y 2E6. Thank you.

REESOR, BRIAN

August 12, 1922 â€“ August 15, 2013 Our beloved father, brother, grandfather, uncle and friend, Brian Reesor, passed away peacefully on August 15th at the age of 91. He was predeceased by his wife Margaret in 2012, and is survived by their two children, Kathy and David, sisters Shirl and Joyce, and grandchildren Lisa, Tarah, Colin, Brandi and Brianne. This man of science saw the world through a kaleidoscope of wonderment and curiosity. How does that work? What causes that? Why does that happen? Yet this humble man was always eager to hear other opinions. He was interested in other people, and avoided talking about himself despite his intellect and many accomplishments. Brian was an award-winning singer as a young man and had a passion, throughout his life, for hunting and fishing. As a result of his enquiring mind, quick wit and a lively sense of humour, Brian attracted a wide circle of close friends over the years, with whom he, and his beloved wife, Marg, traveled, played games and laughed. Brian was easy-going, fun and interesting to be around, a good conversationalist and always maintained a positive attitude through adversity. He liked his scotch cold and his relationships warm. His smile lit up the room and the hearts of those around him. A rich, interesting and rewarding life was his. Brian was the most compassionate, non-judgmental person. Never did he express a mean or bitter comment. He was, indeed, a gentle man and a gentleman. Sadness fills our hearts, and although that will fade somewhat with time, the wonderful memories of him that we have will last forever. Goodbye and thanks for everything. We will all miss you.

NEWS ▼ MP’S REPORT

Okanagan-Coquihalla MP explains prorogation

he most discussed topic to arise this week is the announcement that the House of Commons will be prorogued, reconvening in October instead of mid-September as the fixed Parliamentary calendar was set for. Prorogation is one of the more interesting and also misunderstood of all of the various procedures regarding parliamentary affairs. What is a “prorogation?” In essence each “session” of Parliament is not unlike a chapter in a book. Much as each chapter will have a beginning and an end, so too will a session of Parliament. Prorogation is officially defined as the ending of a session of Parliament. In this case the first session of the 41st Parliament will come to a close and when the House reconvenes in October there will be a throne speech which is the Parliamentary tradition for opening a new session of Parliament as the government outlines the direction and

Dan Albas agenda of the coming session, that in this instance will be the second session of the 41st Parliament. Although some will try to suggest that the Parliamentary act of prorogation is an unusual or uncommon one, in fact the opposite is true. Looking back at all 41 of our elected Parliaments and beginning with our first Parliament in 1867, there have only been five Parliaments that did not have two or more sessions. In fact many Parliaments had three or more sessions with some being as many as five, six and even seven sessions within the duration of an elected Parliament.

To be fair, prior to the House of Commons adopting a fixed calendar, the only way the House could adjourn was either by agreement of the larger parties, (something that rarely occurs even to this day) or by Proroguing the House. As we also know from more recent history, prorogation is not only used to allow for a throne speech and a new session within a Parlia-

cease to exist on the order paper. However, bills that are re-introduced can be reinstated at the same stage of debate within the House that existed prior to prorogation, the only exception would be if a bill was in the Senate and in these circumstances it reverts back to the House of Commons at third reading. The other misunderstanding that I have come across pertains to the role

of ministers. Contrary to what has been suggested, ministers maintain responsibilities and continue to preside over the portfolio in question during a period of prorogation no differently than during a session. Likewise for Members of Parliament, we continue to meet with constituents and work within our constituencies no differently than when the House is adjourned.

without the consent of the opposition (that would normally be required to adjourn the House). There are also some misconceptions that exist about prorogation, the most common is that all bills, in particular Private Members Bills, are in effect “killed” when a House prorogues. This is partially true in that if a bill is not re-introduced into the House of Commons, it would then

It builds all its boats with Ashland’s envirez resin, ecomate flotation foams and acrastrip, an acetone replacement, for which it received accolades from Boating Magazine, the world’s largest powerboat magazine.

Made from reclaimed teak, oil drums, driftwood, root wood and boat wood, all the pieces are unique and could tell a story through their dents, colours and chips. All of the products are one of a kind pieces designed to inspire the style of a space as a focal point, in some ways a piece of art. Her showroom is locat-

ed at 6-3310 Appaloosa Road (Mill Creek Industrial Park) and is open to the public Wednesday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Design appointments are scheduled during the remaining days of the week.

Adorable babies deserve adorable clothes. How sweet is this outﬁt? Knit in Sirdar “Snuggly DK”, a soft nylon/acrylic blend, it requires 2 to 4 – 50 gram balls for either the round neck or ‘Peter Pan’ collar version. The sleeve style is raglan. All borders are done in garter stitch, with the remaining knit in stockinette stitch, while the bonnet, collar and front panels show a lovely vintage lace pattern. 3 pearly or heart-shaped buttons nicely tones it all off. Instructions for the bonnet are given in ﬁrst 3 sizes, but the jacket can knit in 6 sizes from birth to age 7. A young girl of 7 would look smashing in this style. Snuggly DK has 62 charming shades and is machine washable. For a free downloadable copy of this pattern, please visit: www.freepatterndownload.com/gamma/ and click on pattern number 1418.

Congregations of Two Denominations Come Together as One

t the beginning of 2012 the Nazarene Church found themselves without a pastor. The congregation of Lakewood North Church affiliated with a Pentecostal denomination had been renting their facilities for approximately one year, holding services on Sunday evening. These 2 churches discovered their beliefs to be similar and visiting between services became a regular occurrence. The Church Board of the Nazarene Church, (after much prayer and consideration), decided to ask Pastor Wayne Siewert, Pastor of Lakewood North Church to be their interim Pastor while they conducted a search for a new Nazarene Pastor. It didn’t take long for the Nazarene Church Board to hear from the Nazarene congregation to keep Pastor Wayne as their permanent pastor. In order to accomplish this, Pastor Wayne agreed to be re-credentialed by the Church of the Nazarene home office in Kansas City, Missouri. The two Church Boards met together with Pastor Wayne, discussed it and investigated what would be involved. After a number of meetings it was agreed that the two congregations would combine as one under the Church of the Nazarene. Pastor Wayne was required to take several courses from the Nazarene Theological Seminary, which he did and in June of this year he was recognized as an Ordained Minister with the Church of the Nazarene. His official re-credentialing ceremony took place on Friday, June 14th at the annual convention of the Canada Pacific District of the Church of the Nazarene and was a joyous occasion attended by many relatives and friends. Since the inception of Pastor Wayne’s ministry at the Church of the Nazarene, the congregation has begun to grow and is looking forward to more growth. They are hoping for some young families and hope to have enough young people attending soon to begin holding Children’s Church and possibly some after-school programs. Pastor Wayne is a very gifted and dynamic speaker. He has been a Minister of the Gospel for some 37 years and his Biblical knowledge is vast. His sermons are not only exciting to listen to but are also educational and speak to the heart of the listener. In addition, Pastor Wayne has a Master’s Degree in Music. He has led many choirs, both large and small, both in the church and outside of the church, and is a gifted trumpet player. With his musical gifts, Pastor Wayne is currently preparing to begin rehearsals in mid-September for his third Christmas presentation at the Church of the Nazarene with a choir made up of members not only of the combined Nazarene and Lakewood congregations, but also from Trinity, Evangel and many other churches. The previous two Christmases these concerts have been received with enormous appreciation by those attending. The concerts this year will be held on December 6, 7 and 8 @ 7:00 PM. Anyone wanting information about singing with the choir and/or attending the concerts is invited to call the church office at 250-868-2238 for further information.

toured by politicians last Saturday. “I said: That’s not my responsibility,” said Gill. Gill said the man then began to curse in Punjabi. “He was saying: Where are you now? I want to kill you.” Gill was in another orchard at the time of the call, but indicated to the man he was at home. A short time later, a pickup truck arrived at Gill’s residence and the following minutes were captured on Gill’s home surveillance video. On Tuesday, Gill showed Capital News the video footage. After getting out of the truck, the man being filmed appeared to be irate.

The video showed the man waving his arms erratically. Eventually, he picked up a shovel from his truck bed and walked a few steps before striking it on the ground. Gill’s son—who didn’t want to be named—said he and his cousin were at the house at the time; however, they were never threatened directly. Gill’s son explained the man chose to focus his frustration toward Gill, telling Gill’s son of his intention to kill his father. The video showed neighbours arrive on the property, who were apparently curious about the commotion. Gill’s son said he phoned the son of the angry man, asking him to come and calm down his

father. When the son arrived he took the shovel away from his dad. Minutes later, from a separate camera angle, the irate man can be seen getting into an RCMP cruiser. According to Gill, the man phoned again from the police car, once again threatening to kill him. Gill owns 10 orchards in the Kelowna region; he said he is concerned about his own safety while on any of those properties going forward. “I want protection. I haven’t been eating (since Monday) night. I can’t eat anything today. I have a headache,” Gill told Capital News Tuesday afternoon. “Why am I getting the

punishment without reason? It’s not my fault.” Gill said he does not consider himself to be friends with the man who threatened him Monday. “As growers we know each other; (we’re) not friends.” Jeet Dukhia, current president of the BCFGA, said he had no knowledge of Monday’s event, other than what he’s seen in the media. Although Gill indicated he helped organize the politicians’ tour of the hail-damaged crops, Dukhia said that wasn’t the case. “I had given instruction to our general man-

ment as the government outlines the direction and agenda of the coming session, that in this instance will be the second session of the 41st Parliament. Although some will try to suggest that the Parliamentary act of prorogation is an unusual or uncommon one, in fact the opposite is true. Looking back at all 41 of our elected Parliaments and beginning with our first Parliament in 1867, there have only been five Parliaments that did not have two or more sessions. In fact many Parliaments had three or more sessions with some being as

gested, ministers maintain responsibilities and continue to preside over the portfolio in question during a period of prorogation no differently than during a session. Likewise for Members of Parliament, we continue to meet with constituents and work within our constituencies no differently than when the House is adjourned. In spite of prorogation being a very commonly used Parliamentary practice established over many decades in the House of Commons by governments of all stripes, the opposition will understandably denounce this move. The most common allegation is that prorogation “avoids accountability.” I will answer this criticism in advance because the reality is that prorogation can only defer debate—it does not prevent debate from occurring once the House resumes. I should also add that it was our [Conservative Party] government that moved to add an additional 20 hours of weekly debate for the end of the summer session—a move that was opposed by the Opposition. Ultimately this decision by government allows our Prime Minister to introduce and move ahead with a new policy agenda that will keep Canada strong. Although Canada already has the best job creation record in the entire G-7 we must not overlook the importance of jobs and those who are currently unemployed. I look forward to the second session of our 41st Parliament and the upcoming Speech from the Throne. Dan Albas is the Member of Parliament for Okanagan-Coquihalla. His blog is DaninOttawa.com and previous MP reports can be read at the www.danalbas.com website.

See us to arrange an adoption

many as five, six and even seven sessions within the duration of an elected Parliament. To be fair, prior to the House of Commons adopting a fixed calendar, the only way the House could adjourn was either by agreement of the larger parties, (something that rarely occurs even to this day) or by Proroguing the House. As we also know from more recent history, prorogation is not only used to allow for a throne speech and a new session within a Parliament, it can also be used by government to avoid votes of confidence (obviously more common in a minority government) or, as was done recently in the Ontario legislature, to make way for the governing party to choose a new leader—and thus a new premier of the governing party. It should also be noted that prorogation is a tool that can be used at the discretion of government without the consent of the opposition (that would normally be required to adjourn the House). There are also some misconceptions that exist about prorogation, the most common is that all bills, in particular Private Members Bills, are in effect “killed” when a House prorogues. This is partially true in that if a bill is not re-introduced into the House of Commons, it would then cease to exist on the order paper. However, bills that are re-introduced can be reinstated at the same stage of debate within the House that existed prior to prorogation, the only exception would be if a bill was in the Senate and in these circumstances it reverts back to the House of Commons at third reading. The other misunderstanding that I have come across pertains to the role of ministers. Contrary to what has been sug-

In September 2012, the then-Okanagan Tree Fruit Co-operative expelled Boparai for failing to live up to the terms of his contract and shipping his apples to an independent packer instead of the co-op he was a member of. Last December, Boparai, the BCFGA’s first East Indian president, resigned from the top post after serving less than a year as president. “I came to make change. Sometimes my aggressive approach was not popular, but it needed to be done,” Boparai told the Capital News in December 2012. He was released on bail Tuesday, with several conditions that include not contacting Karmjit or Avineet Gill, not consuming alcohol or illegal drugs and not possessing weapons. Boparai is expected to be back in court Tuesday, Aug. 27.

people affected…there is so much damage.” The BCFGA president said more than 20 growers likely had severe damage to their crops. “The (politicians) saw three properties—they got the message that it was a disaster. We couldn’t go to each individual orchard.” Boparai, 52, was Capital News’ 2012 Newsmaker of the Year.

Brown Road work

Brown Road will be closed from Aug. 26 through mid-November, for upgrades but access to businesses, churches and residences will be maintained during the project. The public will be directed to use Old Okanagan Highway then proceed along Bering, Gossett, Apollo or Drought Roads to access the area, as well as Hoskins Road, off Main Street. The District of West Kelowna awarded the $2.5 million contract to R & L Excavating Ltd.

The project includes road improvements and repaving; putting utilities underground; creating designated parking areas; sidewalks, curb and gutter installations; landscaping, irrigation, street furniture and ornamental lampposts; sewer, drainage and water main upgrades. BC Hydro is contributing $75,000 toward the cost of placing utilities underground; and the federal and B.C. governments are providing $586,034 through the Gas Tax Agreement.
