Further input sought for growth strategy by John Arendt

Planners and consultants will go back to the public once again to gain more input about the options for Summerland’s future. Municipal planner Ian McIntosh said the public survey will be reopened on Sept. 13 . It will be available online and at municipal hall. Comments will be accepted until Oct. 15. An open house will be held on Oct. 10 from 4 to 7 p.m. at the

Arena Banquet Room. The comments received from the last public consultation period have been reviewed. “We’ve done quite a lot of analysis since the last public exercises,” McIntosh said. He explained that the consultants and municipal representatives spent a month and a half examining the details which came up from the comments. Consultants are also working to put together an interactive map to show the areas of the

community people should consider depending on the criteria they value. The lengthy process in getting the feedback is important, McIntosh said. “We needed some strong, objective, scientific data,” he said. Because the future growth strategy is complex and controversial, the reasons for the decisions must be defendable, he said. The project should be completed by the end of February.

Summerland’s crime statistics showed a decrease from last year, according to the latest information from the Summerland RCMP detachment. The figures were presented at the municipal council meeting on Monday evening. During the second quarter of this year, police responded to 654 calls for service, down from 676 calls during the same period in 2012. While the number of assaults and thefts increased slightly, the number of stolen vehicles, mischief complaints, break and enters, disturbances and vehicle break-ins showed noticeable declines. Cpl. Bruce Haley of the Summerland RCMP detachment said there were 20 assaults reported in the first two quarters of this year, up from 18 in the same period last year. There have been 33 thefts reported during the first half of this year, up from 32 in the same period last year. The number of mischief complaints dropped dramatically this year. In the first two quarter of this year, there have been 33 mischief complaints, compared with 70 during the same time period last year. This represents a drop of 53 per cent. Vehicle thefts also showed a significant decline, with six reported in the first half of this year, down from 11 in the first six months of last year, representing a 45 per cent decline. The number of thefts from vehicles fell from 21 in the first half of 2012 to 16 in the first half of this year. Break and enters fell from 19 to 14. Disturbances dropped from 20 to 15. There were 11 drug investigation files in the second quarter of this year.

Transit begins with free service by John Arendt Summerlanders will get a free ride when the municipality’s scheduled tran-

sit service begins next month. At the regular meeting of municipal council on Mon-

day evening, council voted to waive transit fares for 2013 and begin charging in January, 2014.

Fees have been set at $2 for a one-way trip within Summerland and $4 for a one-way trip to Penticton. “As an initial promotion, council could choose to waive transit fares until the end of 2013. This approach may also encourage Penticton residents to take the free bus to shop in Summerland,” long range planner Julie McGuire said in a report to council. A transit pass system and reduced rates for students and seniors will be considered later this year, to be introduced when the paid service takes effect at the beginning of 2014. The costs of the transit service have been estimated at around $101,300 a year. Of this amount, $47,300 will come from provincial funding while $54,000 will come from the municipality. For November and December, the service would cost Summerland $9,000. While the waived fees mean the muni-

cipality cannot recover its service costs, the municipality’s Climate Action Peter CommitWaterman tee has already budgeted $20,000 for 2013 to provide a transit service. “Fixed route, scheduled transit service between Penticton and Summerland is major milestone for Summerland,” McGuire said. “Offering free transit service could get people on the bus and potentially increase future revenues.” Mayor Janice Perrino said free introductory fares are usually in place for two weeks, not two months. Coun. Peter Waterman said the free service may help draw out-of-town shoppers for Christmas shopping. “Given the time of year, it’s probably a bonus,” he said. Municipal administrator Tom Day said the free service should result in

plenty of riders who will continue to use the bus when the fees take effect. “It will pay in the long run,” he said. The sole dissenting vote was Coun. Lloyd Christopherson, who said the service should be charged from the start. He explained that

EDITORIAL

our pick

Counting the cost When Summerland’s scheduled transit service begins it will be offered at no cost to the riders for the remainder of this year. While other communities have a two-week introductory period when transit fares are waived, Summerland is extending the free service period considerably. The goal in providing this free offer is to get people on the bus, in the hope that they will continue to use the service when the fees are introduced. It’s a great deal for the riders, but the municipality must pick up the additional costs. For November and December, this cost is estimated at $9,000. The money is noticeable, but as a portion of the overall municipal budget, it is quite small. Summerland’s entire budget for 2013 is $28.66 million Furthermore, the money will come out of the municipality’s Climate Action fund. This is money which has already been set aside for environmentally friendly initiatives. Certain funding received by the municipality is tied in to the community’s ongoing efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. More importantly, the initial free ride may result in more bus riders in the future, This would save money for the community. When riders pay fares to use the bus, they offset the money the municipality would have to set aside for the community’s share of the bus. The investment we make now will pay off in the future and for that reason alone, the free service makes a lot of sense. The addition of a transit service is a significant change in the community and it will likely take some time for the public to get used to the routines of bus schedules. Any initiatives to make this transition period easy will benefit us all in the long term.

A display of canned foods at the Summerland Fall Fair will help to support the Summerland Food Bank. In addition, food will be collected to help the Food Bank. The Summerland Food Bank constantly needs a supply of food in order to serve those who are in need. Displays such as this one help to remind us all that the need continues to exist.

Curing a community cash crunch VICTORIA – Local politicians from across B.C. are in Vancouver Sept. 16 to 20 to take part in the annual Union of B.C. Municipalities convention. There will be trivia reported as news, such as the cost of hotels. Suggestions to license mobility scooters or lower speed limits to 40 km/h, dreamed up in Vancouver Island retirement locales, Tom Fletcher will be rejected by delegates from the rest of the province. Serious discussion will revolve around a report by a UBCM executive committee to reshape the financial relationship between the province and local governments. If this proposal gets the support it deserves, Premier Christy Clark’s government will be asked to undo a couple of decades of political meddling in that relationship. One problem for local governments is that they depend on property tax, a stable source of revenue but one that has no relationship to the property owner’s ability to pay. It tends to load costs onto lowerincome groups such as seniors and renters. Economic growth results mainly in increased corporate and personal income tax revenues as well as sales taxes, which aren’t shared with local governments. One key proposal is to return to a system of revenue sharing

grants introduced by the Social Credit government in the 1980s. They were funded by one point each from personal and corporate income tax and six per cent of sales, fuel and resource tax revenues, thus increasing in years when provincial revenues were strong. The UBCM proposal is to put a share of provincial revenues into an infrastructure bank, to be distributed by the organization on a more stable basis. Saanich Mayor Frank Leonard, one of the authors of the report, uses a basketball analogy to describe the current system of federal-provincial grants for road and bridge projects. It’s a “jump ball,” where communities have to apply to a fund when it’s offered and then see who gets it. Even if a community wins the jump ball, they may find themselves with costs inflated by a hot construction market and an arbitrary deadline to get the job done. Then there are new regulations imposed by senior governments. The most dramatic example these days is a 2020 federal deadline for Greater Victoria to construct land-based sewage treatment. Even with federal and provincial cost sharing, this project is going to land heavily on property tax bills, including those of pensioners and poor renters who will have it passed on to them. Leonard points to another arbitrary system, provincial facilities that pay grants in lieu of property taxes. Saan-

ich is home to the University of Victoria, a community of 25,000 people that needs water and sewer service, as well as police and fire protection. Saanich gets an annual grant in lieu of property taxes of $120,000 for UVic, enough to cover wages and benefits for one cop and maybe some gas money. Cariboo Regional District chair Al Richmond, co-chair of the UBCM committee, is concerned about new water and flood protection legislation the province is preparing to impose. His district and others like it have thousands of kilometres of riverfront, with relatively few property owners. Interior communities also want BC Hydro to pay something for power lines, as is now being done with some aboriginal territories. Local politicians will be expecting a sympathetic ear from the new version of the B.C. Liberal government. Former Quesnel councillor Coralee Oakes is the new community, sport and cultural development minister, with direct responsibility for local government issues. And one of the original members of this UBCM committee was former Langley City mayor Peter Fassbender, who is now minister of education.

culls

When municipal representatives attend the Union of B.C. Municipalities conference later this month, they will once again ask for funding for some important community projects. U n t i l the funds have been approved, projects such as a grit removal system at the sewer treatment plant, an expansion of the water system separation and road work on Garnett Valley Road cannot proceed. The longer these projects are delayed the more expensive they will become.

Fairness at stake in wireless debate Dear Editor: I am writing in response to the recent coverage of the debate over Canada’s wireless sector and the concern for fair access to spectrum. As the general manager for Telus throughout the interior of British Columbia, this is a topic that hits home for me. It should also hit home to anyone

using a cell phone in the area. We have consistently stressed that our concerns were never about Verizon coming into Canada; rather, at stake is a very simple principle: fairness. Is Ottawa about to give any large foreign entity a two-for-one advantage over domestic incumbents in the upcoming spectrum

auction? This is not some academic policy question that affects only bureaucrats in Ottawa or CEOs in office towers. It will directly affect people in communities just like our own. Let me offer just one example. Companies like Telus invest billions to build cellphone net-

works in rural areas like our own. These networks are relied upon for everything from calls to friends and families to 911 emergency services. A foreign company will have made no such similar investments and is unlikely to even make future promises of such investments. Telus makes no complaint about

competing against big foreign companies. But we think it should be at least on a fair basis. Why give the biggest companies in the world who have made no commitment to Canada or Canadian consumers huge advantages? Telus is headquartered in British Columbia and we employ thousands

here in the province and across the country. We spend billions to serve areas like this one. And we invest millions more back into the community with our support for local charities. Just like water or natural gas, spectrum is a scarce Canadian resource. If you support a fair approach — one that serves the people of this region

directly, one that encourages competition without giving away this precious resource to huge foreign companies, then please communicate your support for a fair wireless policy to your local MP and decision-makers in Ottawa. Steve Jenkins General Manager, Interior South B.C., Telus

If an apple a day keeps the doctor away, this photo represents a long healthy spell. In 1911 the Apple Show (Fall Fair) filled Ellison Hall with the delicious aroma of ripe, freshly picked apples including varieties like Spitzenberg, Winesaps, Snow and Northern Spy.

Public voice needed to reform Senate Caregivers were Dear Editor: Our political system, although based on the British format, evolved to the point now where it appears to be broken, at least from the standpoint of the Senate. We are feeding a money pit of gargantuan proportion for which there is little return on monies spent. First of all, most of these senators are appointed. They have been appointed by whatever party

has been in power. We have elected our MPs to do our bidding through due process. They, in theory, are responsible for addressing our constituent concerns, although as we all know, this does not always happen. If these individuals are so important why aren’t they held to account by the Prime Minister; his cabinet and the House as such? We should have a

say as to whether this group is needed or not as we are paying their salaries and expenses. What we get in return for payment is double talk and comments like, “I didn’t know,” from MPs. The government coffers are the responsibility of the governing party. To think that they didn’t know what was happening with the three or four controversial senators is ludicrous. I feel that the time

for a parliamentary wake up call has long since passed. It is time for action. What can I do you might ask? The answer is quite simply, make yourself heard. Too often, it seems, that we seem to take the attitude of not being able to do anything. This is wrong.

Municipality seeks grant funding Sewer, water and road improvements identified by John Arendt Municipal officials will meet with provincial representatives at the Union of B.C. Municipalities conference later this month to ask for more funding for commun-

ity projects. Tom Day, chief administrative officer for the municipality, said the community will meet with provincial ministers to discuss infrastructure grant funding. The community is seeking funds for a grit removal system at the sewer treatment plant. Day said

this project is important since grit is hard on the equipment at the facility. The community will also ask for funding for water separation in the Jones Flat and Garnett Valley area. The separation is part of an ongoing project to separate domestic water and irrigation water. “The

more we separate the water system the less we overrun the water treatment plant,” Day said. In addition, when the water treatment work is done in the Garnett Valley area, the municipality will be able to improve a rough section of Garnett Valley Road. For years, residents have complained

about the poor condition of the road, but resurfacing has been postponed until the

ICBC launches campaign to target distracted driving by Jeff Nagel Black Press

Police and ICBC are launching a month-long campaign to deter distracted driving, the third leading cause of fatal car crashes in the province after speed and impaired driving. Driver distraction is blamed as a factor in 91 fatalities province-wide each year. Transportation ministry offi-

cials estimate drivers are four times likelier to crash when talking on a hand-held phone while driving and 23 times more likely to be in a crash if texting. Enforcement by officers handing out $167 fines will be stepped up throughout September, according to police. Officials kicked off the campaign Thursday using a simulator to show the effect of dis-

tractions on a driver. “Driving is a complex task that requires your full attention,” ICBC interim president Mark Blucher said. “When you’re distracted behind the wheel your reaction time is significantly reduced. Distracted driving is a common cause of rear-end crashes and injuries – there is no safe following distance when your mind is not on the

road.” A 2012 survey for ICBC found B.C. motorists consider texting while driving to be just as risky as drinking and driving, yet 40 per cent of those who own cellphones admit they’ve used a hand-held phone while driving. ICBC says its statistics count use of communications or video equipment among the sources of driver distraction,

along with driver inattention and other sources of internal or external distraction. ICBC injury payouts reached $1.9 billion in 2012, up $165 million from the previous year and a $400 million increase over five years. The Crown corporation cited that increase as the main reason for its application to raise premiums 4.9 per cent, effective Nov. 1.

Industrial park expands Five hectares removed from Agricultural Land Reserve Now that more than five hectares of land have been removed from the Agricultural Land Reserve, the Bentley Road Industrial Park

is able to expand. The park already contains 7.6 hectares and houses some significant Summerland employers. The expanded properties are on the west side of Bentley Road, between Dickinson Farm and Highway 97. While the council

decisions needed to expand the industrial park had been made earlier this year, the Agricultural Land Commission allowed the removal of the land from the land reserve last week. The municipality recently completed updates to the Official Community Plan to

allow for the expansion and completed a drainage study and a traffic impact assessment. These steps allow property owners to rezone for industrial uses. “It is important for the district to have an adequate inventory of industrial land to

attract potential businesses to Summerland,” said Mayor Janice Perrino. One property owner has rezoned a two-hectare parcel to M1-A Industrial which allows uses including automotive repair, high tech research and broadcasting studios.

Fewer accidents in roundabouts Traffic at Summerland’s three roundabout intersections is much safer than before the intersections were installed, police say. Speaking to municipal council on Monday evening, Cpl. Bruce Haley said police have noticed fewer accidents than in the past. “It’s much safer now and there’s a much better flow of traffic,” he said. “I believe they contribute to safer inter-

sections.” Police

School renovation work proposed

Summerland Secondary School gym tops priority list by Joe Fries Black Press

The nearly $3-billion tab to better protect some B.C. schools against earthquakes has likely contributed to a delay in breaking ground on a new gymnasium in Summerland. “Most of the Ministry of Education’s capital money is going towards seismic upgrading, and

a lot of that money is still remaining in the Lower Mainland,” facilities director Doug Gorcak told Okanagan Skaha School District trustees on Wednesday. “It’s been a real drain on the capital funds that the ministry has had available.” A proposed $13-million renovation at Summerland Secondary School is the top priority identified in the five-year capital plan Gorcak presented to Wednesday’s school board

committee meeting. The overhaul calls for construction of

ee Shelley Clarke. Superintendent Wendy Hyer said the gym is also a tough space in which to teach. “If your class size is 30, you’ve got three badminton courts and only 12 kids can play at a time, so you’ve got a number of kids who are not involved in a class. So I just think it presents a lot of challenges to running effective instruction,” she explained. “Most of our schools have really good facilities, including gymnasiums. You just go take a look at the (Summerland) gym and you’d see why it needs to be updated. It’s antiquated and out of date for the size of the school.” Trustee Linda Van

Alphen noted the project has been on the district’s capital wish-list for the decade she’s been on the school board. The school’s gym did, however, have its floor refinished this summer and also received cosmetic improvements as part of the district’s annual summer maintenance program. Other major projects in Summerland included electrical upgrades, plus new sidewalks and parking lot configuration at Giant’s Head Elementary, and new lockers at Trout Creek Elementary. In Penticton, a new roof was put on Carmi Elementary, playground equipment was added at McNicoll Park Mid-

dle, and the tennis courts were resurfaced at Princess Margaret Secondary School. That school also had its geothermal system connected to neighbouring Skaha Lake Middle. No schools in the B.C. Interior are among the 133 that have received seismic upgrades, according to a list maintained by the Education Ministry. A ministry webpage for its seismic program states the government has spent, or committed, $2.2 billion to upgrade or replace 213 high-risk schools since 2001, and expects to shell out $600 million more to address challenges at another 104 schools.

Petition circulates for marijuana legalization by Tom Fletcher Black Press A 90-day countdown began Monday for a petition drive to force the effective legalization of simple possession of marijuana in B.C. Volunteers for Sensible B.C., led by long-time drug legalization advocate Dana Larsen, have until Dec. 5 to collect more than 400,000 signatures. Using the same law that forced repeal of the harmonized sales tax, the petition to trigger a province-wide referendum needs support from 10 per cent of registered voters in each of B.C.’s 85 electoral districts. Larsen has proposed that B.C. go around the federal prohibition with a “Sensible Policing Act” that would disallow the use of B.C. police resources to prosecute simple possession of small amounts of pot by adults. Marijuana possession cases still account for 60 per cent of drug violation reports to police in B.C., according to Statistics Canada figures from 2012. But the number of cases

declined 10 per cent from 2011. There were 25,432 police-reported incidents of all types of drug offences in B.C. last year, a 7.4 per cent decline from 2011. Marijuana trafficking cases declined

more than 20 per cent to 1,006 incidents, and importation and exportation of marijuana declined by 40 per cent. Marijuana growing cases declined 4.6 per cent, following a 28.6 per cent drop in 2011.

LEGALLY SPEAKING...

A public service message from Bell, Jacoe & Company

Scam Artists While they are a problem throughout the year, the darker, lonelier days of winter are the favourite time for Scam Artists to ply their trade. They take advantage of the fact that in winter many Seniors (their usual targets) are more likely to be cooped up at home without much family or otherwise friendly contact. With their very polished pitches they befriend people, usually by telephone, and convince them to send money for all manner of items or services which will never appear. The best way to protect yourself against these people is to have a very healthy scepticism for any deal or product that sounds too good to be true. The simple fact is, if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is! Do not be afraid to phone a friend or family member if you receive a letter or call from someone with the deal of a lifetime. Ask them what they think of it. In addition ask for as much information as you can from the caller and check up on them. If the deal is legitimate, they won't mind you protecting yourself. If they do, then it's a very good sign that they are not who or what they say they are.

Ride raises money for children in need by John Arendt Police officers from around the region are participating in the 2013 Cops for Kids Ride, a 10-day bicycle ride to raise awareness and money for children in medical, physical or traumatic crisis. The ride began in Kelowna Friday at 9 a.m. and arrived at the Summerland RCMP detachment around 1:30 that afternoon. Throughout the 10 days of the tour, the cyclists will stop in 18 communities in southeastern British Columbia. “This is a group of individuals who have all come together to make a difference for local children,” said ride captain Cpl. Brian Burke. “They’ve all been training and fundraising all summer, and now they come together as a team to ride rain or shine to raise even more money and awareness for children in our region.” Burke, who works

for the Penticton RCMP detachment’s police dog service

but lives in Summerland, said the ride gives participants an

opportunity to think about the people they are supporting.

“There are a lot of people struggling with day-to-day

issues with their children,” he said. More informa-

tion about the ride is available online at copsforkids.org.

B.C. Transit brings bus display to Fall Fair The Transit Future Bus will make its rounds in the South

Okanagan next week, concluding with a stop at the Summer-

land Fall Fair. The 12-metre decommissioned bus

has been converted into an interactive public consultation tool. B.C. Transit is using the bus to get input about its 25-year Transit Future Plan for the area. “To meet the growing demands for transit in the South Okanagan-Similkameen, we at BC Transit, must listen to what

our customers and community partners want and need,” said B.C. Transit President and CEO Manuel Achadinha. “Bringing the Transit Future Bus to popular community events and destinations, allows us to hear from more people on how to best grow a regional transit system that we can

all take pride.” In Summerland, the bus will be at the Summerland Fall Fair, 8820 Jubilee Rd. E., on Saturday, Sept. 15 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Those who are not able to attend the Transit Future Bus open house may submit their comments online to bctransit. com/transitfuture until Sept. 29.

The interactive bus display comes as Summerland is about to get a scheduled transit service. The official opening of the new transit service is on Sept. 21, with the first bus on Sept. 28. Since at least 1999, municipal officials have worked to bring a scheduled transit service into the community.

Municipality to review summertime experiences The municipality will conduct a review of summer in Summerland. Mayor Janice Perrino said council and municipal staff would like public feedback about the sani dump, campgrounds, the Tuesday morning and Friday evening country markets and more.

In October, after the Thanksgiving weekend, council and staff will consider the responses to determine whether improvements or changes are necessary. “We’re trying to make our community beautiful,” Perrino said. “It depends on people who come in.”

Energy Diet initiative supported Subsidy offered for initial home assessments

by John Arendt Summerlanders will get some help in paying for an assessment which can help make their homes more energy efficient. On Monday evening, municipal council approved a $25 subsidy towards the Okanagan Energy Diet’s initial home energy assessments for up to 160 homes

in the community. The funding for the subsidies will come from the Climate Action budget, to a maximum of $4,000. Peter Robinson of the Community Energy Association said the Energy Diet began in Rossland, where the community covered the costs of the home assessments. Roughly 22 per cent of homeowners participated and of those, 80 per cent made changes to improve the energy

efficiency of their homes. The result was a significant boost to the local economy as homeowners worked to complete their upgrades. The Energy Diet program has since spread and is organized through FortisBC. The inspections carry a $60 price tag. Those who make energy efficiency upgrades have until March, 2014 to complete the work. Municipal administrator Tom Day said he had the audit conducted at his home. The audit showed

him a method to save almost $800 a year on his heating bills, without any retrofit or renovation work required. Coun. Lloyd Christopherson, council’s representative on the Climate Action Committee, said he would reluctantly support the initiative. He added that he would like to see it in place for low-income people. Coun. Robert Hacking said he initially had reservations about the subsidy, in part because he did not think the money would be enough. However,

he said he has since changed his mind. He noted the potential economic benefits. “My hope is that there will be many

more than 160 people signing up,” said Coun. Martin Van Alphen. Coun. Orv Robson said he hopes the

initiative will help to bolster the community’s economy. He urged residents to hire local contractors for the upgrade work.

working with yacht clubs, marinas and other organizations to set up monitoring stations at area lakes. The stations consist of a series of small sections of PVC pipe and mesh attached to the rope. They are dropped to a depth of eight metres. The stations provide an artificial surface for the invasive mussels.

A sensor is also attached to record temperature and light. Members of OASISS and partner organizations will monitor the surfaces until late September. The monitoring will then begin in May. “We are highly optimistic that we won’t find anything, however it’s important we monitor to be

sure the mussels have not arrived,” said Scott. For more information on European mussels and other invasive species, go to www.oasiss.ca. The aquatic invaders program is financially supported through the Canada Summer Jobs program and a $30,000 grant from the Okanagan Basin Water Board.

“We are pleased to provide funds to OASISS for this very important project. It’s been complementary to our Don’t Move a Mussel campaign, which is aimed at educating Okanagan residents and visitors to the risks these invasive mussels present,” said Anna Warwick Sears, the water board’s executive director.

Mother and daughter earn karate medals by John Arendt

A game of golf

Carla McLeod Special to the Summerland Review

John Floyd, Steve Carriere and Mark Tamblyn, taking part in the Kiwanis Golf Tournament held on Sunday. The money raised will be going to the Care for Kids Cancer charity the Kiwanis clubs in B.C. are sponsoring. This was the first year the club has sponsored the tournament, with 47 golfers registered, and more expected for the dinner and silent auction. “It’s a good turn out for the first year and an excellent basis on which to build for the future,” said Tamblyn, a member of Kiwanis.

Registration open for fall activities The annual maintenance closure at the Aquatic Centre is complete and the facility is now open and ready for new adventures. New to the pool this fall are four large Aflex inflatable toys. These toys are suitable for all ages and a variety of games and activities. The Rocker and George are fun for two to four people. The Aqua Joust and Barrels of Fun are much larger, for more people and so big that only one toy can be in the pool at a time! The aquatic staff has been busy planning and organizing activities for the evening public swims that will give everyone an opportunity to play and try the new inflatable toys. This coming week-

A Summerland mother and daughter brought home medals from an international karate competition. Rita Becker and her daughter Katie Becker were among the Taneda Karate Dojo members at the Soke Cup in Hong Kong last month. The Soke Cup is the world championship competition for Chito-ryu karate. Katie Becker, a green belt, won silver in girls 16 to 17 team kata. Rita Becker, a yellow belt, took silver in the masters’ division kata and gold in the master’s division kumite. While Katie Becker has been learning karate for five years, Rita Becker joined two years ago. “It’s a wonderful way of staying fit,” she said. While the competition was tough, she said the atmosphere within the karate dojo was encouraging. “The dojo is so supportive. It’s like a big family,” she said. “We lift each other up with honour and humility.” Katie Becker said the Soke Cup was an opportunity to show the skills she has been learning through karate. “It was just beautiful to see all the hard work come together,” she said. Summerland classes are held throughout the fall and winter. Classes started on Wednesday, Sept. 11 at Giant’s Head School. Chris Taneda,

head of the karate dojo, said the training through karate has helped students in other aspects of life. Rita Becker agrees,

adding that the discipline learned in karate has helped her daughter make wise choices and avoid bad decisions. “It’s not just skills

you learn in the dojo; it’s also skills you can apply outside the dojo,” she said. “I’m really pleased with what karate has given my family.”

“Every Life Tells A Story”

250-494-7752

Oct. 20, 1928 - Aug. 29, 2013

Sardinha, Joe (Jose)

Mum passed away peacefully, with her loving “little” brother Michael Linley and his wonderful wife Colleen at her side, at the care facility “Cottage by the Station” in Penticton on the afternoon of August 29, 2013. Pam had been living happily and healthily at the Cottage for 3 years in her advance state of dementia when her health completely failed and she passed in less than a week. Mum was predeceased by her husband Barney (Harry Ernest Laverne) Ayton in January of this year. They were together for 64 years and I am certain Dad was waiting for her to join him. They will be dancing together again. Pam is survived by her daughter Jaki (Nancy Jacqueline) Ayton of Fanny Bay, her sisters Fay Walton of Kamloops and Jackie Stratholt (Leo) of Victoria and her younger brother Mike Linley (Colleen). There are also many nieces, nephews, cousins, and their children as well, who will all miss their Aunty Pam. Mum was born in remote Northern Ontario and spent her teenage years in Toronto. She and Dad moved out west with the rest of the family and settled in Victoria in the early 50’s and lived there for almost 40 years. When Dad retired they moved to Summerland and were extremely happy there. It was a very hard decision for Dad to place Mum in the care facility but it turned out to be a blessing and the staff have been wonderful. He was so pleased she was taken care of so well, by such kind people in a lovely place. A memorial service was held at St. Stephen’s Anglican Church in Summerland on Tuesday September 3rd at 11:00 am with interment in the Rose Garden. Mum was a feisty, generous, quick-tongued, loving woman who touched many peoples’ lives – we will miss her.

It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our beloved husband, father, son and brother in Summerland on August 31, 2013 at the age of 52 . He will be greatly missed and lovingly remembered by Julie, his wife of 32 years, son Brian (Kristin) of Campbell River, BC and daughter Katie, mother Maria and sister Ilda (Kevin) Kang of Kamloops. Also left to mourn are many nieces and nephews and grand-nieces and nephews who shared a very special relationship with their “Uncle Joe”. Joe was predeceased by his father Jack, in May 2011. Joe was born in Silvares, Portugal May 14, 1961 and immigrated to Canada with his family in 1965. He began working in the orchard at an early age and decide during his first year of university that farming rather than science was his calling. He married Julie in 1981 and together they started farming, leasing orchards for 3 years before entering into partnership with his parents in 1984. In 1998 Joe’s parents retired and Joe and Julie took over the business. Joe was elected to the executive of the BCFGA in 2001 and became president in 2005. He served in the position for 7 years before stepping down to devote himself to other passions. The greatest of those passions was simply farming – he was happiest with a picking bag slung over his shoulders while harvesting his crop. Joe also enjoyed fishing, camping and spending time with his family. He was eagerly awaiting the birth of his first grandchild in October and his new role as Grandpa Joe. Evening Prayers will be held Friday, September 13, 2013 at 7:00 pm followed by Mass of Christian Burial, Saturday, September 14, 2013 at 11:00 am from the Church of the Holy Child, 14010 Rosedale Avenue, Summerland, BC. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of BC. Condolences may be directed to the family through www.providencefuneralhomes.com.

The importance Ph: (250) 494-5406 of developing new We appreciate your business! wood based building technology 3x3.5 is critically important to many communities in Okanagan-Coquihalla as it creates many well paying jobs and supports rural resource communities. In the same report I also referenced the central need to create new trade agreements that in turn can open up new markets that our local manufacturers can access. In previous reports I have also referenced the efforts of our government in creating new trade agreements with other countries and at the same time have also noted that there will always be those who continue to oppose these trade agreements. Last week the community of Whistler hosted the 10th annual Global Buyers Mission and Wood First Forum. In many respects this forum is like the world series of B.C. wood products as over 350 buyers representing 23 different countries gath-

ered to do business with B.C. wood producers. When you consider that over 40 percent of all Canadian wood products are now exported internationally clearly the importance of trade deals and this forum are key to our forest industry and our regional economies. In fact, despite recent challenges within the sector, the Canadian forest industry currently employs roughly 235,000 Canadians and contributes over $20 billion annually to our GDP. Getting back onto the topic of trade and the forest industry while some have questioned trade with countries such as China, South Korea and more recently India, it is also important to recognize that wood product exports have increased significantly to these countries. China is now Canada’s second largest wood export market and South Korea has moved up to number five. In fact Canada now exports significant amounts of wood product to over 20 different countries that also include Japan, Taiwan, Netherlands, Philippines, Belgium, Turkey, Hong Kong, Pakistan and New Zealand to name a few. We are also for-

Ottawa RepORt

Dan Albas tunate that Canada’s Minister of International Trade is Ed Fast from Abbotsford and as such has a firm understanding on the importance of trade to the B.C. forest industry. In several previous reports and in Parliament I have often shared the success of Penticton based Structurlam Industries, who has now expanded into Okanagan Falls. This innovative value added company provides over 150 well paying jobs. Much of the lumber sourced by Structurlam comes from Kalesnikoff Lumber, a rural mill located in Thrums, B.C. that has taken pride in being a B.C. specialty wood producer for over 70 years. Each of these operations employs many local workers and utilizes many local industries for support services and supplies. While in Whistler at the Global Wood Buyers forum, over

150 architects participated in a forum to learn more about new innovative building technologies, like the ones at Structurlam. It should be noted that some of these innovative wood products are made possible by investments in innovation created in partnership by companies like Structurlam and our government. These new and innovative products have created a very promising level of interest and I have also been informed that two international delegations will be visiting Structurlam in the weeks ahead. These types of events seldom receive much media attention however they are indeed very exciting for those in the B.C. wood sector and show how our government, working in partnership with industry can create innovations that generate new jobs and support our local economies. Let’s also not overlook the importance of trade deals in opening new markets that help create Canadian prosperity and employment. Dan Albas is the Member of Parliament for OkanaganCoquihalla.
