Detonated bomb blamed for truck fire

Premier touts western growth

Jennifer Smith

STAFF REPORTER

ASSISTANT EDITOR

Kelowna RCMP confirm a truck that exploded in the driveway of a Rutland home, one month ago today, was the result of a bomb. During the regular Monday morning cop briefing, Kelowna RCMP spokesman Kris Clark revealed the Chevy Silverado truck, which caught fire in the 1300-block of Rutland Road North in the very early hours of Aug. 30, didn’t just catch fire, but exploded in the middle of the residential neighbourhood. The resulting fire destroyed the vehicle and was immediately labelled suspicious by fire crews and RCMP, who have been dealing with a number of bomb cases this year. “A considerable amount of planning and forethought seems to have been used as the device was placed inside the cab of the truck while it was locked and parked in front of the owner’s residence,” said Clark. The owner of the truck is a 22-year-old man who does not have a criminal record, but is known to police. He is not cooperating with the investigation. On Jan. 11, a car bomb blew up a Ford Explorer reportedly owned by Dave Habib whose brother, Dale, is linked to the Kingpin Crew, a disbanded underling Hells Angels chapter. The incident occurred near the parking lot beside Christopher’s Restaurant in the heart of the downtown core. The second incident occurred last month as well, when RCMP arrested an individual with bomb-making materials in his West Kelowna home as he was about to move them to Lake Country. At this point, law enforcement officials have not linked the incidents and say there is no tie between this latest bomb and the multi-hour lock down at Orchard Park Mall last week. That mall bomb threat turned out to be a hoax. “The good thing was 98 per cent of the public did not panic and no, there was not a bad pandemonium, but a keen interest to listen, obey and file out quickly,” said Harry Manak, one of the shoppers who was evacuated from the mall bomb last Thursday. The threat came in after a note was found on a scrap of paper left on a car in the parking lot stating there was a bomb inside the mall. No arrests have been made.

B.C. Premier Christy Clark says it’s time for Western Canada to step up and make its “greatest” contribution to Canada— helping its economy by exporting the region’s natural resources. Clark, in an impassioned speech to the Canadian Chamber of Commerce’s annual general meeting in Kelowna Monday, said with B.C.’s liquified natural gas reserves and her government’s plan to facilitate the export of LNG to Asia, B.C. is in a strong position to help change this country forever. “We want to step up,” said Clark to a standing ovation. “We all really believe this is our time.” Clark told the Canadian chamber delegates her dream for this country is that all British Columbians and other Canadians who want to work and who can work, have the opportunity to do so. And that is why, she said, skills training has become a focal point for her government. “You cannot create an economy without the people to work in it,” said the premier.

Police were Premier drops in for OC’s 50th birthday bash watching Verma Cheryl Wierda CONTRIBUTOR

A month before Joelon Verma was arrested in connection to the murder of Brittney Irving, police had him—and others—under surveillance. As Verma was watched leaving the YMCA on May 25, 2010, he appeared to be “suspicious he was being watched,” testified Cpl. Jon Collins on Monday as the first degree murder trial for Verman entered its second week at the Kelowna courthouse. The court heard about Verma’s travels that day and how he was in the same location as Mike Roberts— owner of the truck Verma allegedly got stuck in the bush near where Irving’s body was eventually located— twice. Police first saw Roberts arrive at the Quail Ridge-area apartment building that morning and meet with Verma. Two other men—driving trucks logoed with the same company name—were also seen at the apartment, said Collins. Later, Roberts’ wife’s vehicle and one of the company vehicles seen earlier in the day were spotted at the YMCA at the same time Verma’s Mercedes was parked there. However, Collins said he could not see inside the YMCA and did not know what the men were doing inside. He also agreed under cross examination that his belief that Verma appeared to be “suspicious” as he left the YMCA was not in his notes. Earlier on Monday, the court heard from another man involved in a drug transaction with Brittney Irving the day she disappeared. Curtis Woloshen testified that he didn’t actually know he was doing the deal with Irving on April 6, 2010 until she pulled up outside the Knox Mountain store. Woloshen’s associate, Desmond Shea, had made the arrangements for the deal, he testified. Woloshen believes they met “just before noon.” He drove off in Irving’s Explorer to another location to get 76 pounds of marijuana and load it into Irving’s vehicle before returning to Shea and Irving. Irving left with the drugs but said she would provide payment, which was “upwards of $120,000,” in about an hour. “She was going to call and we were going to meet up,” said Woloshen. After three or four hours went by, they started to get concerned, he said. Video surveillance shows him speaking to a staff member at the Days Inn at 3:45 p.m. that day, and Woloshen said he later went back to the Days Inn with Shea to speak with Irving’s brother, with whom she was staying in the hotel. Later that day or the following day, the duo went to the airport “to see if her vehicle was there,” Woloshen said. Woloshen spoke to police about his dealings with Irving at two local pubs, but never gave an official police statement.“I just didn’t want to go on the record,” he said. A summary of his conversations with police was provided to him prior to his testimony, but Woloshen said he disagreed with what police attributed to him, the court heard. Exactly what police attributed to him was not disclosed to the jury Monday. The trial continues.

Family still baffled by son’s disappearance Jennifer Smith STAFF REPORTER

Seven years have passed since 22-year-old Aaron Derbyshire went out for an evening at Level Nightclub and apparently disappeared from the face of the earth. Since that day, Sept. 30, 2006, his bank account has not been used, his parents have not heard from him, his friends and colleagues in the community and at the boutique engineering firm he loved have not seen him or heard his voice. “I never thought our family would be touched by crime like this,” said his mother Glenda Derbyshire at a press conference held today. She is speculating, she admits, but knowing that he had finally gotten the Crohn’s disease that plagued him under control, knowing how much he enjoyed his new job, his sports and his

friends, she does not believe there is any way he would have brought harm upon himself. He had plans to go river rafting and spend time with his family on the weekend he disappeared and had just moved into a new apartment. “We know at this time he was in a really good place in his life; he was happy,” said his aunt, Gloria Horning, who also spoke at a press conference to mark the anniversary of his disappearance. Derbyshire’s family has received many phone calls over the years speculating on what happened to him in the hours after he vanished from the club. There were reports he saw or heard something he shouldn’t have and other reports indicating he had been seen walking across the bridge, possibly to going for a drunken swim when something went awry. His mother believes, no matter what the answer, that there is

one and that it is something others would know about. In December 2006, they even set up an unusual time-limited $100,000 reward hoping to flush out information to no avail. “We know that there are people out there today who know exactly what has happened to him and where he is,” she said. On their first Thanksgiving without him, she remembers they had been planning to take family pictures until he disappeared. Beyond that, it’s been so long now, it’s now a struggle for her to remember the specifics. In the intervening years, he’s missed out on his own university graduation, the opportunity to plan a wedding, have a family and raise children. He’s missed the births of her grandchildren and his grandfather’s passing, graduations and family celebrations. Derbyshire imagines those who know what happened to her

son have enjoyed a fair number of life’s milestones, have matured and come to understand anew the joys and sorrows a life can bring. She hopes compassion will one day win out and that the person, or persons, with the critical piece of information she needs to find peace will wake up one morning and decide to come forward. And she hopes this anniversary, or this Thanksgiving, might proved the push needed to bring her family this relief. According to Kelowna RCMP spokesman Kris Clark, the RCMP never allow a case to become a cold case. Any unsolved disappearance or homicide remains open until it is solved. Forty actionable items have been assigned to officers to follow up on this year on the Derbyshire case and a review of the file was completed last year. jsmith@kelownacapnews.com Twitter: @jaswrites

▼ REGIONAL DISTRICT

One-time dog license amnesty offered during October Are you harbouring a fugitive? The Regional District of Central Okanagan is offering a onetime, no cost opportunity to make unlicensed dogs legal. During the month of October, it’s providing a free 2013 dog license to owners of unlicensed dogs across the region. Starting Jan. 1, there will be zero tolerance for

dogs without a license in the Central Okanagan. In addition, it’s anticipated that the current $100 fine for an unlicensed dog will be increased substantially, which is included with the regular impound and licensing fees. “After the extensive Dog Control Service review last year, the regional board directed staff to develop initiatives that

would encourage more dog owners to license their pets and through the licensing fees, cover more of the cost of providing services to dog owners,” said RDCO spokesperson Bruce Smith. “A dog license is mandatory, it’s the law and this one-time only offer of a free 2013 dog license for owners of unlicensed dogs is a step toward ac-

complishing that longterm goal, while making their dog legal. “We also believe having more licensed dogs will further encourage and support responsible dog ownership and compliance with our bylaw. “That benefits everyone, dog owners and those that don’t own a dog.” The free 2013 dog license is only being of-

fered from Oct. 1 to 31 at either the main regional district office, 1450 KLO Rd., or the Regional Dog Pound, 890 Weddell Place. “Providing a license and permanent identification for your pet is the first principle of responsible dog ownership,” Smith added. “A current license tag on the collar of a pet is the

dog’s ticket home should it unfortunately get away. “It makes less work for our staff and enables them to easily reunite lost pets with their owners and families. “We recently had a high profile case where a dog without a license or any other form of identification was injured and we couldn’t locate the owner. “With a current dog

tag, our staff would have been able to contact the owner.” Licensed dog owners also benefit from the My Dog Matters’ Responsible Dog Owner Program. Showing their rewards card allows them to take advantage of various discounts and savings offered at over 30 local businesses listed on the mydogmatters.ca website.

Local jobs at stake if KPR rail line link remains shut down A Kelowna company is upset that a plan to revive the Kelowna Pacific Railway won’t include the rail service between the city and Lumby Junction. In a new release issued Friday, Ashland Canada stated it was both surprised and disappointed to learn of CN’s plan to reboot the rail service but exclude Kelowna from the planned route startup between Kamloops and Lumby Junction.

The company says this decision directly jeopardizes the future of its Ashland Canada Performance Materials manufacturing facility in Kelowna and the livelihoods of the plant’s 35 employees. In making this decision, Ashland Canada contends CN apparently plowed ahead without asking for any input from more than a dozen Kelowna businesses which depend on the rails to sustain

their operations and serve their customers, or from those in the local community with a vested interest in rail service being maintained. “Our Kelowna plant has depended on service over that rail line for more than 43 years to deliver and transport raw materials,” said the news release. “Those feed stocks are turned into structural plastics and coatings used by a variety of industries and customers, including Canada’s largest recreational boat builder (Campion Marine), Canada’s leading provider of tub/showers to the housing industry (Kohler Canada), and the world’s largest waterslide producer (Whitewater/Formashape).” Kelowna-Lake Country MP Ron Cannan is also quoted in the news release, saying he is worried that a lack of commercial rail service to Kelowna “may literally knock the local economy off track.” “It’s important to maintain transportation corridors, including vital railway service to Kelowna,” said Cannan. The MP told the Capital News one of the stumbling blocks in re-opening the Kelowna-Lumby Junction route is the cost to upgrade the rail line balanced against the potential revenue the line will generate. “Rail service is a key component to our economic engine, because it supports well-paying jobs and helps keep our tax base strong, providing funds to pay for services like parks and trails,” Cannan said. Brock Elliott, president of Campion Marine in Kelowna, called the decision to exclude Kelowna short-sighted. “How can this be taken as good news when businesses from Kelowna to Armstrong, which depend on critical components from Ashland Can-

ada, will continue to be severely impacted,” Elliott asked. “Campion Marine is just one of many fibreglass manufacturers in the Okanagan that will continue to be negatively impacted by Ashland Canada not being able to get the required feed stock delivered by rail. “ Since service was suspended in early July, Ashland has been forced to pay steep additional costs to transport its raw materials and finished product by truck rather than rail, a significant increase in operating costs for the company. “CN claims to be a true backbone of the Canadian economy. If left unchanged, this decision will let down those who are contributing so much to Western Canada’s growth,” said the news release. Ashland’s facility in Kelowna is the only one of its kind in Canada. Manufacturing about 30 million pounds of structural plastics and coatings per year, it is the leading supplier to the Canadian and Pacific Northwest composites industry, with sales in the region of $25 million per year. About 50 per cent of its sales are for the export market. KPR, which leased its network from CN in 1999, entered receivership on July 5 and halted operations. Besides the bankruptcy trustee, Tolko Industries, the main customer of the rail line, along with the Teamsters Canada Rail Conference (TCRC) and TCRC-Maintenance of Way Employees Division (TCRC-MWED) representing the 35 locomotive engineers, conductors and track maintenance workers employed by the insolvent B.C. short-line railway, signed off on CN’s proposal to restart the rail service.

NEWS ▼ ABERDEEN HALL

Prep school continues to expand Barry Gerding EDITOR

t Kelowna’s newest high school is scheduled sto open in the fall of 2014. - Aberdeen Hall Prepearatory School welcomed -students and parents to the -school on Friday, and un-veiled plans for the addition of a senior hall, an -$8.6-million privately-funded addition at the -school site, located adjacent to the south end of othe UBC Okanagan campus. - The senior hall is the fourth of a planned fivenphase expansion for the eschool, which was starteed by a group of parents a decade ago in a leased facility following the clos-ure of the Central Oka-nagan Academy. n With an enrolment onow of 410 students in

kindergarten to Grade 12, Aberdeen Hall has already developed an elementary school, outdoor sports fields and temporary gym facility and built what will now be an early learning centre for kindergarten and pre-school classes. The senior hall will provide permanent classroom space for the high school grades, allow for the removal of portables currently on the site and pave the way for the final phase, to build a permanent gym. Aberdeen Hall is a non-profit, co-educational and non-denominational independent school located at 950 Academy Way that aims to foster academic excellence opportunities for its students in a progressive school environment.

“We’re focused on creating a bridge to university, both UBC and the top universities across the country and abroad,” said Christopher Grieve, head of school. Grieve said the additional space provided by the Senior Hall will serve more than just as classrooms, but also be a meeting and learning centre for the school that embraces a wide diversity of uses from technology to music. He said the hope is for the school to ultimately reach an enrolment of more than 500 that will allow for two classes at every grade. Grieve said the location, 19 acres donated to the school by current fundraising board chair Michael Holzhey five years ago, is a dynamic location that the expand-

ing school is beginning to realize to its full potential. “We work around this all the time so we forget sometimes how picturesque this location is for a school,” said Holzhey. “But we are reminded of that when new parents come here to check out the school and they look around at the site and are impressed so much by what they see.” Grieve said the volunteer efforts of the parents through fundraising and persistence to see the Aberdeen Hall concept come to fruition and grow is being realized by its continued expansion. “It’s very satisfying to see how far this school has come since it was started 10 years ago with an idea and located in leased facilities,” Grieve said.

City to ignite energy saving plan Alistair Waters ASSISTANT EDITOR

The heat is on in downtown Kelowna. City council has given the green light to a project known as a district energy system. The system, to be owned and operated by a subsidiary of Fortis Inc., would use heat captured from industrial processes at the Tolko sawmill in the city’s north end to heat water that in turn would be piped under the ground to a number of public and private buildings throughout the downtown core. Those buildings would use the hot water to help with thermal heating, thus reducing the amount of gas or electricity they require. “This really is a very visionary process,” said Coun. Gail Given. First talked about in 2007, the district energy

system plan has now received approval from the B.C. Utilities Commission after an “extensive and rigorous” process that resulted in the company having to answer 950 questions about its plans. Officials with Fortis Alternative Energy Systems Inc. (FAES) said Monday they are now gearing up to issue a request for proposals to construct the system here. Siraz Dalmir, strategic solutions manager with FAES, said the company is excited by the potential the project offers and it could see construction start as early as next spring. In the first phase, 16 buildings would be included, such as city hall, the downtown library branch, the Rotary Centre for the Arts, Memorial Arena, Prospera Place, the Kelowna law courts building, the downtown health

unit building, as well as the Delta Grand Hotel and private residential towers such as the Dolphins, Lagoons and Discovery Bay. Future additions could include the planned new Interior Health office tower at Ellis Street and Doyle Avenue and the yet-to-be built twin-tower residential Monaco development across the street. As many as 12 other buildings in the area could also be added to the system. In return for allowing FAES to proceed, the city will receive three per cent of the system’s revenues, an amount estimated at $2.2 million over the 20year life of the contract. It would also get an additional $75,000 for use of space under city streets. The company says it will spend about $26 million on the project and by using water heated from heat already generated at the mill, the new system

will be good for the environment. The company estimates that after just two years, the amount of carbon dioxide prevented from entering the environment will be equivalent of taking 430 cars off the road here. That number is expected to double by full build out, said Dalmir. The initial plan calls for piping the heated water from the mill and an “energy centre” located in the north end of Water Street and several streets that join in the area around city hall. The piping would stop at Queensway. Future expansion could take it to Leon Avenue and under Harvey Avenue (Highway 97) to the proposed new development at Central Green, but Dalmir said no time frame for that has been established. The use of thermal heating is not new in buildings here, and, as Coun. Andre Blanleil pointed out, several downtown highrise condomin-

The Alberta-based developer took on the project with the idea that it would ultimately complement the company’s plans to build a boutique hotel across the street from the pier and marina on the site of the former Willow Inn, currently serving as a parking lot. ium buildings already use it. But the new plan would see buildings that currently use gas and electricity for heating converted to thermal. As a back-up, existing boilers in affected buildings would be maintained by FAES in case the mill

had to shut down for any reason. “I’m very pleased to see this proceed,” said Coun. Robert Hobson. “I think it’s a great partnership for the city.” Kelowna’s manager of building services, Martin Johansen, called the plan a “winner on many levels”

for the city, noting the significant capital investment by the company, the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and the fact the city will be “staying ahead of the curve” in terms of dealing with climate change. awaters@kelownacapnews.com

Clark will travel to Toronto this week to meet with New Brunswick Premier David Alward and other business leaders to discuss Canada’s labour market needs and skills and training. Clark’s keynote speech came at the end of the Canadian chamber’s meeting, a gathering that attracted an estimated 400 delegates from across the country and pumped an estimated $725,000 into the local economy, according to the Kelowna Chamber of Commerce. It was also the culmination of 18 months of work for the local chamber, which organized and hosted the event. “We’re delighted to roll out our very special Okanagan red carpet for

everyone,” said Kelowna chamber CEO Caroline Grover. Following Clark’s speech, the premier sat down for a question and answer session with Canadian chamber president Perrin Beatty. Beatty asked Clark about both LNG and the controversial proposed Northern Gateway oil pipeline across Northern B.C. On LNG, Clark said there has been great interest from several large multi-national companies eager to ship LNG to markets like China, a country willing to pay much more for the Canadian LNG than the United States. She said while allowing Canadian oil to be exported to the world via the Northern Gateway Pipeline would help the national Gross Domestic Product grow by $8 billion, the export of LNG, even if the price fell by 50 per cent in Europe, would help the Canadian GDP grow by $20 billion.

As for the Northern Gateway Pipeline, the premier said she feels progress is being made on having Enbridge, the company that wants to build it, meet the five conditions the province has set for its support of the project. Those conditions include passing an environmental review, world-leading practices for spill prevention and response on both land and in the waters off the B.C. coast, respecting First Nations’s rights, and a “fair” share of fiscal and economic benefits for B.C.

But the final approval of the pipeline project, which has widespread opposition in B.C., will rest with the federal government. However, Clark said the pipeline is not just a B.C. or even an Alberta issue, it is a national issue because of the impact it will have on the entire country. “This is not about the feds verses the province,” said Clark. “This is an issue for Canada, for growing its economy.”

The cell phone call can wait

n British Columbia, the law has been on the books since January 2010, and yet there are obviously way too many people who just don’t give a darn. The distracted driving legislation prohibits the reading or sending of text messages or e-mails and making or receiving phone calls on a hand-held device while behind the wheel. In 2010, according to the RCMP, distracted driving was a

contributing factor in 104 collision fatalities in British Columbia. Have we learned our lesson? Statistics from 2012 show the number of fatalities associated with distracted driving was about 100. Last week, the Penticton RCMP, along with detachments across the province, spent portions of four days specifically targeting distracted drivers, in private vehicles and commercial vehicles.

In Penticton, RCMP officers issued 103 tickets for distracted driving. The numbers if Kelowna drivers were targeted would not fare any better, evident to anyone who stands at a busy intersection waiting to the street and watches the motorists pass by. The fine for distracted driving, other than reading or sending text messages, is $167. Add three demerits if reading or sending text messages.

Compared to the fines and penalties for drinking and driving, the fines for distracted driving are minimal, and given the frequency of distracted driving, it appears the fines and penalties are not serving as a deterrent. The potential consequences of distracted driving are just as serious as drinking and driving and the fines should match. We don’t need one more person dying because someone just had to call their BFF.

▼ MCINTOSH PROPERTY

Kelowna council should stand up for ALR’s credibility To the editor: Re: The McIntosh property request in Kelowna to be taken out of the Agricultural Land Reserve. I agree with many of Jorgen Hansen’s points in his letter to the editor in the Sept. 26 Capital News. I’m also wondering where people think we’ll get food once China and Chile need all of their products for themselves. Many people don’t know from how far away most of our food already comes, nor do they care.

I can understand how the mayor and city council would’ve had to support Premier Christy Clark’s friends, the Bennetts, in their request to have the land taken out of the ALR. Imagine saying no, and then asking for a favour of the government somewhere down the line. It makes expedient sense politically, but to me it seems short-sighted. Once this piece of land in question goes, so will the Hazel Dell pear orchard next to it. I heard the farmer beside this pro-

posed development on CBC the other morning, and he explained how a farm and residential/commercial buildings don’t mix. He said he’ll be forced to sell due to all the complaints about his farming practices, as he said a ‘berm’ doesn’t work when you’re spraying. That could start a domino effect of farms being sold right to KLO Road, and then what would stop it from happening all the way down to the Father Pandosy Mission? With this move, farm land in this

corner of southeast Kelowna could unravel like a Cowichan sweater with a torn cuff. What if the council had said no: Farm land is so important for the future that even if this land stays empty that’s better than if it’s developed? Would that discourage people from buying an orchard, removing the trees, waiting, and then applying to the ALR for exemption? Why can’t the former Kelowna Secondary School site (at Richter and Highway 97) be developed, where it

harms no one, when this plan harms so much of great value? By the way, thank you Mohini Singh for being the only city councillor to say no to the McIntosh request. But I believe this topic bores the public who are thinking with delight of another box store and 550 more homes on that strip along Springfield. I doubt many people give a damn about a pear orchard or the fields of corn along Byrne Road.

A Gift in Memory Makes a Difference

of the Central and South Okanagan / Similkameen

▼ MENTAL HEALTH

Shelagh Turner CONTRIBUTOR

At the UBCM Convention, held Sept. 16 to 20, several mayors voted to re-open Riverview Hospital. While we applaud Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson and Vancouver Police Chief Jim Chu for sounding the alert about the mental health crises they see in their city, we are concerned at the support they are receiving for their proposed solution of re-opening Riverview on a number of fronts. According to Chu and Robertson, what they’re proposing is not the “old model of Riverview” but instead an “institution of excellence for North America.” To evaluate the best solutions for a problem, the problem must first be accurately understood. The problems Chu and Robertson identified include the burden on police of dealing with people who are seriously mentally ill and are “slipping through the cracks and have no place to go.” In both our experience and according to research, the issues they have identified are far more complex than an “institution of excellence” in the Lower Mainland can fix. Over the last eight years, we have seen significant progress in how our community has addressed the issue of homelessness. Service providers, community stakeholders and government have come together to increase the number of housing options by adding 164 new units of social and supportive housing in Kelowna over the past few years.

New programs and practices have been brought to our community. These have been both well received, and effective at reducing the number of people on our streets. Much progress has been made since the spring of 2007, when a local count identified 279 homeless people in Kelowna. While much has been done, there remains much to do. Those who remain on our streets are experiencing intractable mental health and co-occurring substance misuse issues. Inextricably linked to mental illness is the issue of poverty. The average person on provincial income or disability assistance receives a housing allowance of $375per month, while the average one bedroom apartment rents for $750. The recently calculated living wage for the Central Okanagan was determined to be $18.01 per hour. Making ends meet, especially for those struggling with mental illness, is a steep uphill battle. There remains much work to be done when it comes to addressing the issue of poverty in our province, and in our communities. Our communities are facing mental health crises and we desperately need our leaders and politicians to sound the alert and to take drastic measures to address the issues. The drastic measures we have in mind, though, need to happen on local levels around the province—not in renovating an old institution in the Lower Mainland. They need to include community stake-

250-860-2356

of the Central and South Okanagan / Similkameen

holders, who can look at the living wages of individual communities and are prepared to strategize about affordable housing solutions for their citizens. The drastic measures need to include enhancing existing mental health resources in communities and filling identified gaps in our community, like after-hours support, discharge planning after hospital stays and services bridging the critical 16 to 24 age range. What we truly need is compassion. One in five Canadians will experience a mental health issue serious enough to require treatment every year. That means every one of us either is “one” or knows “one.” Those of us who have experienced mental illness need to speak up so that others can have the courage to do the same. Those who have been impacted by the struggles associated with mental illness need to advocate, vote and demand systemic change. Rather than investing millions in re-opening an institution in Vancouver, let’s invest in our communities and increase the capacity of those who already understand the issues to really effect change in the lives of our clients and participants. Let’s invest in efforts that promote mental health and early intervention. Let’s engage in this conversation for the sake of our community and to truly promote mental health for all. Shelagh Turner is the executive director of the Kelowna branch of the Canadian Mental Health Association.

Premier, West Kelowna mayor applauded To the editor: I am an apolitical person; that is, I have the right to complain—whoever is in power. Even more so, I want to let the fine people of West Kelowna in on an experience I just had with our Premier Christy Clark. This is not a love letter, but it may seem so after you read it. It may seem so because we live in an environment of perpetual scepticism. Good news, or nice news is hard to filter through the daily wring-

ing of hands or horrid headlines. Anyway, I was at a municipal conference recently where I bumped into West Kelowna Mayor Doug Findlater, who was engaging, down to earth, humble, yet focused. That would have been enough for me to say to you Westsiders, “Way to go!” But then I had a chance meeting with the premier. I was standing in line for a reception at the wonderful new conference centre in Vancouver

when I found out that the line was for greeting the premier. Not one to waste an opportunity, I stayed in line and eventually (must have been 300 people in this particular line) caught a glimpse of the premier shaking hands, smiling, and actually engaging in dialogue. Already impressed with the premier’s staying power (probably 150 hands already shaken), I continued to see her engage in repartee and never waver from her engaging

Are we asking for trouble? To the editor: Wonder if Kelowna could also be a victim of such a flood as occurred in Colorado in light of the clear cutting and wildfires that we are experiencing? Anyone can see when traveling on The Connector, the bare acreage that is becoming more apparent

due to the clear cutting. If we can see this from the highway, how much more clear cutting is hidden from our view? True, they replant, but it’s all the undergrowth and plants that are being removed too. It’s a potential for a disaster that is happening

all over the world. Could a devastating rainstorm also cause such a scenario in our area as precipitation in the atmosphere increases from a warming climate? L. Shearing Kelowna

A shame that council didn’t just say ‘no’ ALR from A8 I mean, why, when the grocery stores are filled to the rafters with food? What a great example our civic lead-

ers could’ve been by saying no to the request. And what a shame the ALR has become so weak this is even possible. Moni Schiller, Kelowna

smile. Now I’ve been on this Earth more than half a century and I can count on only one hand how many times I was genuinely impressed with a politician up close (most all here in the Okanagan by the way), but Mayor Findlater and then the premier of our province? Wow. When it was my turn, feeling a little sheepish, I gave the obligatory congratulations for winning her election (actually an astounding feat given the circumstances), a most heartfelt thank you for choosing the Okanagan (and hopefully a spill-

over into my riding), and a very heartfelt thank you for opening up a regulatory process for home inspectors that is broken and in need of fixing (actually very rarely done in the past). Her response was truly engaged, not a blank stare or speaking generalities. I was left with a wonderful photo of her shaking my hand (at her insistence, not mine) and a warm feeling that perhaps, contrary to the headlines, we are in good hands. Craig Hostland, Kelowna

BRIEFS CURVES INITIATIVE

In recognition of October being Breast Cancer Awareness month, the fitness club Curves in Kelowna and West Kelowna is inviting local residents to purchase a $10 punch card for 10 workouts with the proceeds going to B.C. Breast Cancer Research. The 10 workouts can be done in honour of someone who has battled breast cancer and a poster will be up in the club for each participant to sign as a way to show community support. “The Curves mission is to strengthen women and this promotion helps us do just that,” said Leah Thordarson, owner of the Westbank Curves. “The punch card is a fun way for women to get involved and help punch out cancer, but it also gives us the opportunity to teach the importance of exercising regularly and maintaining a healthy weight. “After all, 30 minutes of ‘me’ time is always a good thing.” For more information contact the Curves locations in Westbank at 250-768-2254, or in Kelowna at either 250-861-5880 or 250-8612901.

The fundraiser will start at 2 p.m., Saturday, Oct. 5, at the Westbank Shopping Centre, home of Blenz Coffee and the Landmark Cinema Encore Theatre. The centre is located on Gosset Road in West Kelowna. “As a new business in West Kelowna, I’m really pleased to make a contribution to such an important event in my community,” said Melissa Brown, owner of the Blenz Coffee shop. Sparky the dog mascot will be making an appearance along with the Kelowna Fire Department’s fire truck. There will also be plenty of prizes donated by the merchants of the Westbank Shopping Centre. Encore Theatre will be making a special 7 p.m. presentation of the film Frequency, starring Dennis Quaid. Tickets are only $5 with all proceeds going to the Vancouver General Hospital’s Burn Unit.

Alpine opens parts manufacturing facility Barry Gerding EDITOR

Some people in West Kelowna may not like it, but Mayor Doug Findlater welcomes his community gaining a reputation as the helicopter capital of B.C. While the chopper noise from flying overhead may be annoying to some, for the mayor it means the creation of new jobs in his community and improving the local tax base that pays for district services. “That fact we are a helicopter community may be lost up against the wine industry or tourism,” Findlater noted. “But the helicopter industry base is putting West Kelowna on the map and Alpine has a lot to do with that.” Findlater made the comments at the official opening of the new 18,000 sq. ft. manufacturing facility for helicopter parts that Alpine Aerotech, at 1435 Stevens Rd. in West Kelowna, has developed to complement Alpine’s helicopter service plant off Highway 97 also in West Kelowna. Jim Campbell, president of Alpine Aerotech, said for years the manufacturing side of their business was squeezed for space around the helicopter service facility. “We always had to sneak around the helicopters in for servicing to find space to work,” Campbell said. He said Alpine Aerotech’s new facility is fitting to complement the company’s growing role in the Okanagan aviation sector, acquiring a reputation across North America for its Bell helicopter, leasing, maintenance and research and development work. The new plant’s expansion was built by Argus Properties. Campbell said Alpine Aerotech now employs more than 100 skilled aviation workers, something he hopes will increase as Premier Christy Clark’s economic hopes for liquified natural gas exploration and development begin to take hold in northern B.C. Clark, the Westside-Kelowna MLA, was on hand at the official

PREMIER Christy Clark tours the new Alpine Aerotech manufacturing facility for helicopter parts in West Kelowna on

Explaining some of the products made at the plant was Simon Konte, from the company’s engineering department. opening to offer her enthusiasm and excitement about Alpine Aerotech’s expansion and the role it and other companies will play in LNG’s longterm economic prospects, creating jobs beyond northern B.C. Clark said the skills needed to create jobs for natural gas exploration and refining will require a variety of training and services that can be supplied by emerging companies such as Alpine Helicopters and Alpine Aerotech throughout the province, making the commitment as well that those jobs will go first to British Col-

umbians. “The potential for creating new jobs from LNG will be spread out across the province and provide opportunities for companies like Alpine Aerotech,” Clark said. The premier said Alpine may be something of a secret locally, but in the international helicopter industry it is known for its invention, imagination and innovation. One such example of that was illustrated by the premier as she sat in a long-line seat developed to allow helicopter pilots to lean to one side for

a better visual sightline when picking up or depositing heavy loads without having to unbuckle their seat belts, a new innovation that was a result of a pilot fatality in a helicopter crash. Campbell said Alpine currently is servicing helicopters from New Guinea, Australia, England, Brazil and Africa, an indication of the global aspect of his industry and the potential it offers for Alpine Aerotech’s future growth. bgerding@kelownacapnews.com

HOME IMPROVEMENT

Trades training complex fundraising team created Three enthusiastic supporters of both the trades and Okanagan College have offered to head up the campaign team to raise funds for the new Trades Training Complex at the Kelowna campus. Ben Stewart, Dennis Gabelhouse and Mike Roberts will be front and centre as Okanagan College ramps up its efforts to raise $7 million towards the new $33-million Trades Training Complex to be located on KLO Road. Stewart, who was the Westside-Kelowna MLA from 2009 until this spring, is taking on the role of honourary chair. Gabelhouse, who has a lengthy background in media and marketing— most recently at Global Okanagan—will be the campaign chair, while Roberts, a retired veteran broadcaster and Okanagan College Honourary Fellow, has signed on as campaign ambassador. “We are fortunate to have the support of these important members of our community as we embark on this campaign,” said Okanagan College president Jim Hamilton. “All three are longtime friends of the college and each has contributed to the success of this institution or our community in

a meaningful way. “Their commitment to the goals of the campaign is admirable and I am confident that commitment and enthusiasm will do much to serve the thousands of students who will benefit from our new Trades Training Complex.” Alf Kempf, president of the Okanagan College Foundation, said he’s excited that the campaign has generated such strong volunteer leadership. “This is a stellar team with a clear vision for the instrumental role that skilled trades will play in the future needs of B.C.,” Kempf said. “I’m confident that these three can do anything they set their minds to.” The campaign goal is to raise $5 million towards the capital costs of the project, plus another $2 million for programming and student support. The provincial government has contributed $28-million to fund the project. “This is an important project for the entire region,” said Stewart, who founded Quails’ Gate Estate Winery and appreciates the trades from a worker’s perspective having taken night courses at the college in arc-welding, oxy-acetylene gas

Sun throttles Huskers, peaking for playoffs Rockets to visit Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER

Above all, head coach Shane Beatty wants his club playing sound, crisp football heading into the B.C. Football Conference post-season. Based on the results of the last two weeks— albeit against weaker opponents—the Okanagan Sun looks very much like a playoff-ready squad. On Sunday at the Apple Bowl, the Sun pitched its second straight shutout with a 61-0 evisceration of the Chilliwack Huskers. Alex Bradley paced the Sun attack with four touchdowns, while Wes Geisler highlighted another dominant performance by the defense with a 61-yard interception return for a second-quarter major, as the Sun pushed its record to 7-2. Beatty credited his team for not looking beyond the Huskers and focusing on the task at hand. “We executed well in all facets of the game,” said Beatty. “I don’t care who we’re playing, we’ve got to just play ourselves and we’ve got to learn how to execute on offense, defense and special teams. Once we do that, it doesn’t matter who we’re playing. Just go out there and run your assignment, do your assignment and do your job…and I thought we did that very well today.” In his first four-touchdown game since high school, Bradley struck for three rushing majors in the first half, then opened the second half with a

100-yard kick off return to the Huskers’ end zone. “It was just a complete effort, offense, defense, special teams,” said Bradley, who rushed for 108 yards on 16 carries.

“We came out to solidify our game and show we’re a dominant team in this league.” Theo Deezar tossed three touchdown passes, one each to Tommy Howes, Zach Regert and Lerone Robinson. Howes, the fifth-year receiver from Winnipeg, finished the day with six catches and is now just six shy of Matt Scheurwater’s Sun single-season record of 57 receptions. As for the club’s second straight shutout, defensive back Landon King said the defense appears to be peaking at the right time of year. “As long as we keep getting better every week, it’s all we can ask for go-

With the Vancouver Island Raiders’ 22-12 victory over Langley on Saturday, the Sun—barring any upsets next weekend—will finish second in the BCFC and would host the third-place Rams in the playoffs on Thanksgiving weekend. While a first-place finish would have clearly been preferable, Beat-

ty insists his team is ready for whatever situation presents itself. “It’s upsetting, I obviously wanted Langley to win but at the same time, the kids knew all we can control is our own destiny, that we get one game at home,” he said. “It would have been nice to have two, but we’ve got to win one next week, then face Langley and just get after it.”

The Sun close out the regular season next Sunday when they host the Kamloops Broncos in a 2 p.m. kick off at the Apple Bowl.

With the return of Kevin Constantine behind the club’s bench and a number a key player additions, Western Hockey League opponents are expecting to see a more formidable version of the Everett Silvertips than in past seasons. Ryan Huska’s Kelowna Rockets will get their first of four looks at the ’Tips when the clubs square off Wednesday night in Washington. Everett is out of the gate quickly with a 2-00 start, while the Rockets are 2-0-0-1. “They’re a much-improved team and they’re very well coached,” Huska said of the Silvertips. “With some of their returning players and some of the additions, they’re a fast-skating group that’s playing with a lot of confidence right now.” Huska is hoping for a better effort in Everett from his Rockets than the one that resulted in a 4-3 shootout loss to the Victoria Royals Saturday in Kelowna. A poor third period, in particular, cost the Rockets’ the game as the Royals overcame a 3-1 deficit to grab the two points. “We haven’t played a good 60 minutes yet,” Huska said. “We’re not playing up to our capabilities, either with our energy or our skating.

Warriors run win streak to 6 Make it six wins and counting for the BCHL’s West Kelowna Warriors. Jordan Masters scored twice as the Warriors downed the hometown Smoke Eaters 5-3 Saturday night in Trail. Liam Blackburn’s third period goal stood up as the winner, while veteran goaltender Andy Desautels stopped 24 shots for his sixth win in a row. The Warriors led 3-2 after two periods, then managed to hold off a frantic push by Trail in the third. ‘They came hard,” said Desautels. ‘’We just stood our ground, and made sure we got pucks out and pucks deep.’’ The Saskatchewan native added he’s excited for the promise the Warriors are showing early in the season. “Everything’s going right right now,” De-

sautels said. “We’ve got a lot of skill, but our skill is working hard. We’re going to be tough to play against every night.’’

Jason Cotton and David Pope also tallied for the Warriors, now 6-20 on the season. This coming weekend, the Warriors are back on the road for a threegame coastal trip, with stops in Powell River, Nanaimo and Cowichan Valley. The Kelowna Chiefs edged the hometown Summlerand Steam 4-3 Sunday to pick up a split of two games in KIJHL action over the weekend. Nicholas Kovacik scored the game winner

with just 2:44 to play. Nick Josephs led the attack with two goals, as the Chiefs overcame a 3-2 deficit in the third period. Jagger Bowles scored the other goal for Kelowna, while Connor DeMelo turned aside 35 shots in goal. On Saturday, the Osoyoos Coyotes dropped the Chiefs 5-2 at Rutland Arena. Kevin Roth and Adam Beatty scored in the loss. Kelowna returns to action Friday in Princeton against the Posse, before hosting North Okanagan on Saturday.

Weber, the captain of the Nashville Predators, was rated eighth; Duncan Keith, who plays with the Chicago Blackhawks was 20th; and Benn, the captain of the Dallas Stars, came in at No. 37. The 6-foot-4, 230-pound Weber, a native of Sicamous, played four seasons with the Rockets, winning a Memorial Cup title with Kelowna in 2004.

He was the playoff MVP a season later as the Rockets won the WHL championship. Keith, from Penticton, played half a season for the Rockets in 2002-03, helping lead the club to its first WHL title. Benn, a Victoria native, scored 79 goals over two seasons with Kelowna, culminated by a trip to the Memorial Cup in London in 2009.

Thanks to an innovative ‘return to osnow’ program, she travnelled to Europe to strap eon her skis at SnowWorld, nthe world’s largest indoor ski area. “We wanted somewhere that had consistent snow conditions and where we weren’t dealing with weather causing forced days off, because it’s really important we get our days in,” said fSerwa from Landgraaf. “There are about 10 or 11 in Europe but this one had the most square-foot,age of snow.

The Okanagan Rockets settled for a split with the Valley West Hawks on the second weekend of the B.C. Major Midget League’s regular season. As part of the league’s annual showcase weekend at the Richmond Oval, the Rockets downed the Hawks 5-4 on Saturday. Tanner Wishnowski, Branden Wagner, Mahlon Head, Mitchell Oliver and Cory Santoro scored in a well-rounded attack for the Rockets, while Reid Kilburn earned the win in his first start of the season in goal. On Sunday, the Hawks rebounded from a 2-1 deficit after 40 minutes to down the Rockets 4-2. Tyson Jost scored both goals for the Rockets who lost for the first time this season. Kilburn stopped 27 shots in the loss. This weekend the Rockets (3-1-0) will meet the Thompson Blazers in a home-and-home set— Saturday in Kamloops, then Sunday at CNC in a 5:15 p.m face off.

ever experience of skiing indoors. “We are doing a lot of drills, a lot of slow skiing, making sure the proper muscles are firing in the proper order so it becomes habitual.” The Canadian team explored the possibility of Serwa joining her

teammates in New Zealand, where they are currently training on a ski cross course, but the snow dome idea proved to be a better fit for her first days back on snow and was more cost effective. Serwa returned from last year’s injury at the season-opening World Cup race in Nakiska, Alberta, but doesn’t have an exact return to competition date this time around. This year’s World Cup circuit once again kicks off in Nakiska, on Dec. 6 and 7, and the race is on to qualify for nomination to Canada’s team for the 2014 Olympic Winter Games, with the qualification period drawing to a close in January. “I will go into the season with the same expectations—maybe using one race to warm up and then by the second race gun-

ning for the podium,” said Serwa, who finished last season ranked fourth in the world despite missing several races due to injury. “Ideally we would have the perfect return to racing program so I wouldn’t even need that first race. Hopefully at that point I’m ready to go, ready to race and 100 per cent committed. “Nakiska might be pushing it a little bit. My goal is to race in San Candido (Italy) right before Christmas. It’s somewhere I’ve had success in the past and it’s good to be happy when you head into a race.” Serwa will stay in the Netherlands for the rest of the week before returning to Canada. If all goes well, she will join her teammates at their next ski camp in Europe in October.

CUISINE from Jude’s kitchen loving seafood A new look for a book that was first published in 1988, is now out for seafood lovers and it’s a fun take on buying, cooking, eating and the folklore of shellfish. It’s called How To Make Love to a Lobster, and this edition was published by Whitecap Books. Within its 125 pages are 40 recipes for shellfish from various Canadian and U.S. restaurants and chefs, along with details about 13 different kinds of seafood, from abalone and conch to the more-familiar lobster, crab and shrimp. The recipe we tried from the book was simply delicious, which bodes well for the others, but they are from different chefs, so it’s no guarantee. The information about each shellfish is really comprehensive, including both trivia and indispensable tips. It’s written by lifestyle and garden writer Marjorie Harris, who writes for the Globe and a number of magazines; and author Peter Taylor. This week is the kick-off for the 33rd annual Fall Okanagan Wine Festival, which begins with the B.C. Wine Awards and reception at the Laurel Packinghouse Thursday evening, followed the next two nights by the annual WestJet Wine Tastings at the Rotary Centre in Kelowna. It winds up with the Grand Finale Consumer Tastings at the Penticton Trade and Convention Centre Oct. 11 and 12, and in-between there are hundreds of events up and down the Okanagan at restaurants and wineries, pairing food and wine, and celebrating the harvest. For event details, go to www.thewinefestivals.com or pick up an events guide wherever B.C. wine is sold. For lots of recipes including B.C. VQA wines and dozens of tasting notes on local wines to accompany the recipes, pick up a copy of my book, Jude’s Kitchen, wherever books are sold, including at many winery boutiques. Renowned wine writer John Schreiner added the margin notes for your assistance in pairing wines with my recipes.

Steak & Oyster Pie This recipe is courtesy Chef Chris McNulty. I haven’t tried this yet, but it sounds delicious. You may opt to replace a portion of the beef stock with Guinness beer. 1 1/4 lb. (625 g) stewing beef 2 tbsp. (30 ml) oil 2 onions, chopped 2 tbsp. (30 ml) flour 2 c. (500 ml) beef stock salt and pepper, to taste 8 oysters, shucked 1/2 lb. (250 ml) short-crust puff pastry egg wash for brushing pastry Remove fat and sinew from the beef and dice into 3/4-inch cubes. Heat oil and saute the beef and chopped onions in the oil for three or four minutes or until the meat has sealed. Make a roux by adding the flour to the

oil in the pan and cooking it for two or three minutes, then whisking in the stock, mixing it well as it comes to a boil and thickens. Season with salt and pepper. Simmer for 1 1/2 to two hours, covered, over low heat until the meat is tender. Transfer to a deep pie dish or to individual small ovenproof dishes. Allow to cool for about an hour. Pre-heat the oven to 450 F. Place the shucked oysters on top of the meat. Roll out the pastry, making it into a circle large enough to cover the pie dish. Trim and crimp the edges. Use the cut-off pieces to decorate the top of the pie. Egg-wash the top and bake it for 25 to 30 minutes, until the crust is golden brown. Serve immediately. Serves 4.

Digby Sea Scallops Sauteed in Garlic & Sherry Oooh, but this is good. Serve over a nice, light, rice pilaf with green onions and celery in it. You may use fresh or frozen scallops. We paired this with the excellent Intrigue Wines 2012 Pinot Gris with its hint of citrus and crisp acidity, with just a hint of honey. 2 lb. (1 kg) Digby sea scallops 1 c. (250 ml) flour, for coating 4 tbsp. (60 ml) unsalted butter 4 tbsp. (60 ml) olive oil 2-3 cloves garlic, finely chopped 1-2 tbsp. (15-30 ml) dry sherry salt & freshly-ground pepper, to taste chopped fresh parsley, to garnish

Wash and dry scallops. If frozen, make sure they’re completely thawed. Toss them in flour until lightly coated. Shake off excess flour. In a frypan, heat butter with olive oil. Add minced garlic and scallops, stirring and tossing quickly. Add sherry and season with sea salt and freshly-ground black pepper. The scallops are cooked when they turn opaque. Avoid overcooking since it will toughen these tasty morsels. Just before serving, sprinkle with enough fresh parsley to coat the scallops. Serves 4.

Some simple guidelines for readers of Jude's Kitchen

There are some basics about my cooking that you should know about in using the recipes created for Jude’s Kitchen. *I mean a large egg when a recipe calls for an egg *usually, butter and margarine are interchangeable *usually, salt and pepper is added to your taste

*I generally use sea salt *fresh ingredients top frozen or canned *organic products are my first choice *wherever possible, I use whole grains, not processed *include a variety of them, when possible *wherever possible, I use fresh herbs

*fewer quantities of dried herbs are needed than fresh *I use extra virgin olive oil *I use grapeseed or olive oil to cook with *I don’t deep fry *feel free to substitute. I do *have fun in the kitchen *encourage others to as well
