Torched car similar to recent car bombings
Jennifer Smith
STAFF REPORTER
Police are investigating after the same white Nissan Rogue caught fire in the middle of the night, two nights in a row over the weekend. Parked in the 3000-block of de Montreuil Court, directly across from Okanagan College, the car was said to be on fire Saturday at 1:46 a.m. and Sunday at 2:35 a.m., the second time with the car fully engulfed in flames. Whether or not this is connected to two car bombing incidents this year—one in the 1300-block of Rutland Road in late August, the other downtown near Christopher’s Restaurant in January—police could not say Monday afternoon. “It’s just in the preliminary stages (of investigation),” said Kelowna RCMP Sgt. Wade Seversen. The bombing in Rutland was a targeted explosion and the 22-year-old owner of the Chevy Silverado truck involved is not cooperating with police, RCMP Const. Kris Clark told media after a statement on that incident was released last week. “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 first car bomb went off in downtown Kelowna in January destroying a Ford Explorer reportedly owned by Dave Habib whose brother, Dale, is linked to the defunct Hells Angels Chapter, the Kingpin Crew. The investigation into the de Montreuil Court fires is ongoing. Anyone with information or tips is asked to call Kelowna RCMP at 250-762-3300.

When you are in the business of providing services for 120,000 people, and using their money to

media, the Internet and other types of non-traditional public engagement to not only get its message out but also hear from residents. And, according to
deputy city manager Paul Macklem, the public is not only aware of the new ways of contacting the city, they seem to be embracing them. In his quarterly report
to city council Monday, Macklem said between July and September of this year, the numbers of Twitter followers the city has collected jumped nine per cent to 8,079, while

Head-on closes Hwy 97 Monday
JENNIFER SMITH/VERNON MORNING STAR
TWO single-occupant vehicles collided head-on Monday shortly after 8:30 a.m. on Highway 97 between Oyama and Vernon. Both drivers were taken to hospital. The extent of their injuries was not known at press deadline.

Rose Valley vet saves dog’s life A West Kelowna vet came to the aid of a dog that captured the hearts of the North Okanagan residents after it was found on the side of the road in Vernon, limping with a paw rubbed raw and bleeding. Dr. Moshe Oz, who operates the Rose Valley Veterinary Hospital on Stevens Road, volunteered his hospital’s time for last week to perform leg amputation surgery on the border collie named Kassidy. “It’s one of the promises I made to myself when I became a vet and was able to open up my own hospital was to give to the community,” said Oz, a regular columnist for the Capital News on dog and cat health issues. Kassidy was found on the side of a road in Vernon and was rushed to the SPCA branch in Vernon.
Kassidy’s paw was a birth defect that required surgery, which normally would cost about $1,000. Complicating matters further was that Kassidy had recently had nine puppies, which were not with her when she was brought to the SPCA. The pups were eventually located and reunited with Kassidy at the hospital and all were coping well with the post-surgery situation. “This poor, sweet girl deserves to experience a better quality of life,” said Corinne Ross, the Vernon SPCA branch manager. “She looks like she’s only three or four years old and is a very adoptable little girl who needs a loving home.” Oz said the surgery on Kassidy was done last Thursday, and he stayed with the dog through the night to make sure there
Vernon RCMP had released some details Monday afternoon about a motor vehicle accident on Highway 97 near Oyama that stopped traffic. Shortly after 8:30 a.m., officers responded to a twovehicle accident south of Bailey Road. “Two single-occupant vehicles collided head-on,” said Cpl. Gerry Kovacs with the Vernon RCMP. “The two drivers have been taken to hospital for treatment of their injuries. One driver was taken to Vernon Jubilee Hospital, the other to Kelowna General.” The severity of the drivers’ injuries was not known at the Capital News press deadline Monday. A motorist said the accident involved a PT Cruiser and a Mazda. Highway 97 was closed in both directions but, as of 10:20 a.m., was open to single lane alternating traffic. A motorist texted The Vernon Morning Star, sister paper of the Capital News, and said northbound traffic was backed up well past Crystal Waters Road, with the accident less than one kilometre north of Crystal Waters Road. Southbound traffic at 10:30 a.m., said the motorist, was backed up to Bailey Road. The cause of the accident is unknown and an RCMP collision analyst was called to assist North Okanagan Traffic Services with the ongoing investigation.

KASSIDY after undergoing leg amputation operation, with her pups last week. were no post-operative issues. “She came through the surgery very well,” said Oz. He didn’t think adapting to three legs instead of four would be a huge challenge for Kassidy. “Both cats and dogs are very adaptable to situations like that. Sometimes the bigger dogs have issues with that but the smaller ones tend to adapt pretty well. “I think Kassidy will be fine.” The dog’s story generated a fundraising initia-
tive to help cover the costs of Kassidy’s post-operative medications and follow-up medical needs. “We got the word out online and raised close to $3,000 to help Kassidy,” Ross said. “It will help pay for Kassidy’s medication antibiotics and painkillers, and for the puppies to be vaccinated and spayed or neutered.” All the dogs will be put into foster care for now, with the hope permanent homes can be found for all of them.
A student pilot from Carson Air ditched into Mill Creek at Kelowna International Airport Friday morning. “At about 11:45 a.m. we had a Cessna 172 with a student pilot in training doing touch-and-goes, landing on Runway 16, which is our runway from the north,” said airport director Sam Samaddar. “The aircraft veered off the east edge of the runway and carried on into Mill Creek.” Touch-and-go training involves landing on a runway and taking off again without coming to a full stop, then repeating the process. The exercise is done to practice as many landings as possible in one training session. The student pilot was treated for minor injuries and taken by ambulance to Kelowna General Hospital. According to Samaddar, the airplane spilled approximately five gallons of fuel into Mill Creek; however, crews—including a hazardous materials team—put booms into the creek immediately as part
of its response. Mill Creek runs down the outside of the airport runway from Mill Creek Regional Park, just north of the airport in Ellison. As of 1 p.m., incident commander and platoon captain Dale Calhoun said all concerns relating to the Mill Creek aquatic environment were resolved. “The detectors that we have in there say it’s 95 per cent clean; there’s no hydrocarbons or stuff like that,” said Calhoun. “We’ve put the booms in and (they’re) probably about 20 metres from the site. There’s nothing that’s gone any further.” Samaddar said he was unsure of the age of the pilot. He noted there was no direct communication with the air traffic control tower. The crash didn’t affect commercial flights. The last incident at the airport occurred in January when a WestJet passenger flight was grounded as one wheel at the nose of the plane slid off the runway in icy conditions. wpaterson@kelownacapnews.com jsmith@kelownacapnews.com

northwest B.C. is an isolated coal mining community where seeing wildlife is pretty common. But even Gagnon and her husband were taken aback on a Sunday morning, Sept. 29, when a brazen pack of about 15 coyotes wandered down a steep bank into the backyard of her Rio Grande Drive home in West Kelowna. The coyotes were initially eyeing up their twoyear-old miniature pinscher dog as a possible meal while the canine was outside taking a pee at 7:30 a.m. The subsequent barking then brought out their other dog, a German shepherd, which in turn was quickly surrounded and outnumbered by the coyotes. “My husband ran outside and screamed at the

coyotes and they took off,” Gagnon recalled. “If he was 10 or 15 seconds later, my (German shepherd) would have been overwhelmed.” Gagnon said she was both surprised at the number of coyotes in one pack and not being hindered by the steep bank to get down to the backyard. “There were rocks and dirt all over the cement retaining wall at the back of our property that they knocked loose in coming down from the ridge above us,” she said. Gagnon said she called wildlife officials who told her there are up to three different coyote packs known to be roaming the West Kelowna area. “My dogs are OK. The coyotes came around at the same time for the next two mornings and we haven’t seen them since,” Gagnon said. “I just thought it should be something that our neighbours should be aware of if they’re not already.” While coyotes generally don’t pose a danger to people, Gagnon recalled one incident in Nova Scotia in 2009 when a 19-year-old woman was attacked by two coyotes in Cape Breton Highlands National Park. She later died from the injuries she sustained in the attack.

Canadian Tire franchise partners hike for Jumpstart Wade Paterson STAFF REPORTER
From Sept. 7 to 14, Terri Cummins joined 15 other Canadian Tire franchise owner partners on a seven-day, seven-peak hike through the Rocky Mountains. The effort was part of a fundraiser for Canadian Tire Jumpstart Charities, which help financially disadvantaged kids, ages four to 18, participate in organized sports and recreational programs. A total of $105,000 was raised by the 16 hikers, with Cummins herself responsible for fundrais-

ing about $8,500 of that total. “The funds (I) raised will stay local,” said Cummins, whose husband owns Canadian Tire on Carrington Road in West Kelowna. “Most people think with big companies like Canadian Tire that the money goes to the home office. “But because Canadian Tires are privately owned, our (money raised) stays local.” Cummins said the participating hikers—who are all members of Partcon CT Network, which includes Canadian Tire owners from across the country—wanted to try a different kind of fundraiser. “Jumpstart has a lot of different programs they do that always seem to involve mostly the Canadian Tire owners,” Cummins said. “This one we decided that partners would take it on ourselves—try something from our end and see what we could do.” In total, participants hiked a distance of 88 km
and climbed 4,625 metres in altitude over the seven days; the group’s fundraising trek took them through Banff, Lake Louise and Jasper. Cummins said not all participants were experienced hiker so the challenge was incredibly difficult for some. With more than $100,000 raised through the effort, Cummins is hopeful more members of Partcon CT Network will sign up for the next fundraising effort. “We’re hoping that our success this year will spark more people to do it.” There are two funding allocation periods per year for the West Kelowna chapter of the Jumpstart program: Jan. 15 to June 1 and July 1 to Nov. 15.

Best Pinot Noir’ in the under £15 category at the Decanter World Wine Awards in London, England. More than 14,000 wines from 61 regions around the world were entered in the competition in 2013. Mission Hill 2011 Martin’s Lane Pinot Noir won a coveted International Trophy—the competition’s top award. It was the first time a single wine variety (red or white) from any region in the world has won both a Regional Trophy for ‘Best Wine’ and an International Trophy for ‘World’s Best Wine’ at the Decanter Awards. The Decanter Trophy was presented at a black-tie affair in front of 1,000 wine luminaries at the Royal Opera House in London by the legendary Steven Spurrier, Chairman of the Decanter World Wine Awards. Ironically, his 1976 Paris Wine Tasting (as portrayed in the awardwining movie Bottle Shock which premiered at the 2008 Sundance Film
Festival), put Napa and California on the world wine map for the first time when they won out against legendary French wines. Now he has done the same for the Okanagan Valley with Pinot Noir, considered to be one of the most difficult wines to make from what is called “the heartbreak grape”. “I was totally shocked when I learned that our Pinot Noir was named best in the world,” said Mission Hill’s proprietor Anthony von Mandl. “I am still in awe that a wine from the still emerging Okanagan Valley could win against the best Pinot Noir in the world from Burgundy, Sonoma Country, Oregon, and New Zealand. This is a seminal moment for the entire Canadian wine industry.” In 1994 Mission Hill Family Estate put the Okanagan Valley on the map by winning the International Wine & Spirit Competition in London for ‘Best Chardonnay in the World’ and at the time the Master of Wine Judg-
es were in such disbelief they retasted all of the wines and Mission Hill won a second time. “I never could have imagined that lightning would strike twice,” continued von Mandl. “This is an incredibly proud moment for my family and the realization of my life-long dream to produce wines of exceptional quality right here in the Okanagan Valley that could stand alongside the best in the world.” Rick Bonitati the recently appointed President of Winery & Vineyard Estates for Mission Hill Family Estate, accepted the trophy in London on behalf of the von Mandl Family. Bonitati joined the Mission Hill winery from Jackson Family Wines in California where he was responsible for several ultra-premium wineries, including La Crema, Cambria, Arrowood, and Kendall-Jackson. “This is a defining moment for Mission Hill Family Estate and the entire Okanagan Valley,” stated Bonitati.

▼ WINE FESTIVAL
Future culinary stars showcase their abilities at OC campus The Fall Okanagan Wine Festival is offering the public a chance to meet the Okanagan’s culinary stars of tomorrow. “These young chefs are so proud of their skills and Okanagan Wine Festival events like these provide a showcase for the culinary leaders of the future,” said Blair Baldwin, general manager of the Okanagan Wine Festivals Society and an Okanagan College School of Business professor. If you want to get in on the ground floor of the region’s next generation of hot culinary talent, tuck into Okanagan College’s two signature events of the Okanagan Fall Wine Festival. On Oct. 10, Quebec’s Alexis de Portneuf— one of the world’s finest cheese makers—is challenging 10 young B.C. Interior chefs to create an
appetizer, main or dessert, using some of the firm’s prize-winning cheeses. The competing chefs, from area restaurants and Okanagan College’s Culinary Arts students, work their magic in partnership with area wineries to create complimentary tastes to impress attendees and judges. “It’s good for young chefs to get out there and get their names recognized—it raises the profile of both the chef and the place that they work,” said Stuart Klassen, executive chef of the Delta Grand Okanagan Resort & Conference Centre, and president of the Okanagan Chef’s Association. He will be there mentoring his own young Delta Grand chef in the competition, Hayden Duval. The Young Chefs event starts at 6:30 p.m., in the Atrium of the Centre for Learning at the Ke-
lowna campus of Okanagan College. “It has already sold a record
number of tickets,” said Baldwin. Tickets are $60, available at www.thew-
inefestivals.com/tickets. The next evening at 6 p.m., the 11th annual
Culinary Student Wine Dinner takes place at Infusions Restaurant on the
Kelowna campus. This event’s tickets sold out in August.

New airline service coming to Cranbrook
D
Wade Paterson STAFF REPORTER
Starting Nov. 18, Pacific Coastal Airlines will begin regularly scheduled non-stop service between Cranbrook and Kelowna. A Beech 1900, 19-seat airplane will operate six days per week—excluding Saturday—and will depart Canadian Rockies International Airport in Cranbrook at 3:10 p.m. MDT and arrive at Kelowna International Airport at 3 p.m. PDT. The service will be offered year-round. “This is a great opportunity to bring the Kootenays together with the Okanagan,” said YLW airport director Sam Samaddar. “Certainly from the health care perspective in terms of Kelowna being the regional hospital, it will be a route that is used. “I also understand from the banking industry in the Kootenays that their headquarters are here in Kelowna, so there’s a lot of activity between the two regions.” Pacific Coastal Airlines will be the eighth airline to service Kelowna’s airport. The company currently provides flights, charters and cargo service to more than 65 destinations throughout B.C. e “Not only does this new air service with Pacific Coastal Airlines provide better business and tourism ac-cess to both our regions, but this will also provide quick, -easy transportation to our medical facilities and specialists that many from the Cranbrook area are already nusing,” said Kelowna Mayor Walter Gray.

Slim lead in blood donor challenge Canadian Blood Services in Kelowna is out for blood in its annual collection contest with Prince George. And, late last week at the half-way mark of this year’s Interior Drive For Life contest with its northern neighbour, the south is leading the north—just only by a hair. To date, Kelowna has collected 93.51 per cent (778 unites) of the its 832unit goal for this point in the contest. Prince George has collected 92.77 per cent (475 units) of its 512unit goal to this point. The totals for each city are posed on population. Kelowna was leading by a larger margin earlier in the contest but has lost a lot of ground recently, say Canadian Blood Services officials here. “With four weeks to go in this year’s blood drive contest, we’re calling on Kelowna residents to help us build on our early lead and stay out in front of Prince George,” said Gayle Voyer, partnership specialist with CBS in Kelowna. “Prince George has narrowed the collections gap considerably. Whether you’re a new or returning blood donor in Kelowna now is the time to book your next appointment.” To book a donation appointment go to blood. ca or call 1-888 2 DONATE (1-888-236-6283). Over the past five years, Prince George has won three Interior Drive For Life contests (2008, 2010, and 2012), while Kelowna took the title in 2009 and 2011. Local residents can donate at the city’s blood donor clinic at 103-1865 Dilworth Dr., Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., and from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Oct. 19.

Jumping the gun on LNG
T
here is a perplexing situation surrounding the B.C. Liberals hinging the economic future of the province on liquefied natural gas to the tune of more than $400 billion in revenue. The importance of natural gas to the Liberal government first made light during the election campaign, when the Liberals promised to clear the provincial debt and establish a Prosperity Fund with natural gas royalties and revenues. Since winning the election,
the Liberals have continued to rest much of the province’s future economic success on the natural gas industry. Adding to the excitement is Prime Minister Stephen Harper arriving at the Asia-Pacific leaders’ summit this week and learning of what could be called a $36-billion vote of confidence—Malaysia’s state-owned oil and gas company Petronas has committed to construction of a liquid natural gas plant in B.C. and the pipeline to feed it. The problem is, the natural
gas industry in British Columbia is in its infancy. Of the handful of proposed liquefied natural gas plants alluded to in the Prosperity Fund calculations, three have received export permits, although clients have yet to be secured, and only two have passed environmental review. Then there are the pipelines needed to get the natural gas to the LNG plants, most of which have not passed through the environmental assessment stage. That is the reality, that
counters against the optimism of potential investors such as Petronas. But Clark is going out there, telling the world B.C.’s natural gas industry will be providing clean energy to the rest of Canada and the world, although environmental groups dispute the “clean” part. Hinging the province’s future on what can best be called unhatched economic chickens at this point may prove to not be very prudent. —Penticton Western News

(Sorry to mix my al- appears to consider itself a cut above cohol-making metaphors.) the rest, but also for B.C. wines in But, 19 years ago, the wine-sniffgeneral. The win put this valley on the
wine connoisseurs’ map and nearly two decades later, the quality of wine produced here, and the industry itself, has grown substantially. In that case, a rising tide did, indeed, lift all boats. As the 33rd Fall Okanagan Wine Festival kicks off, lightening has struck twice. In London last week, at the prestigious Decanter World Wine Awards, Mission Hill’s 2011 Martin’s Lane Pinot Noir was named the best wine of its type in the world, once again beating out the big boys from places like France, California, Australia and New Zealand. While the latest win carried the
caveat of a price tag—the wine was judged the best Pinot Noir in the world under $25 (£15) a bottle— it was nonetheless an impressive achievement. But the reality is , it was just the latest in an long, ongoing string of awards for Okanagan wines at competitions around the world. Award-winning B.C. wines are no longer a surprise. In fact, hearing about local wines wining awards has, quite frankly, become old hat. And that speaks volumes about the quality of the wines being created in the Okanagan Valley. They literally can stand alongside wines from anywhere in the world. It’s not just the lo-
cals saying so, it’s the people who put those other wines up there in the first place—international wine judges. As wine regions go, the Okanagan is small and it’s new. But it now has a reputation and it’s that reputation that has helped put the entire area on the map for more than just wine lovers. The days of the Okanagan being known simply for “beaches and peaches” are long gone. The local tourism industry is cashing on a much more upscale chic these days. Over the next two weeks, many of the province’s 236 wineries will show off their products to thousands of well-heeled wine-lovers. Think of it as their grape escape.

LETTERS
▼ FORTIS LOCKOUT
Negotiating goalposts shifty To the editor: Re: The current FortisBC labour dispute, whereby Fortis has locked out close to 200 of their IBEW union members. I take exception to the comments made by FortisBC communications director Joyce Wagenaar in recent media statements: “Of course (FortisBC) remains committed to negotiating and being available to return to the bargaining table,” Wagenaar explains. “We’d like to resolve this for our employees and our customers.” Since FortisBC locked out their
employees at the end of June, each time since that they have participated in any negotiation sessions, they have added new concessions for the union to address before a settlement can be reached. My question is why? How can the two sides ever reach an agreement, when Fortis keeps moving what the end goal looks like? As a public company, FortisBC is certainly entitled to run its business any way they see fit. However, if FortisBC truly wanted to resolve this dispute, they would negotiate a settlement based only on the issues
that were on the table at the original time of lockout, rather than upping the ante each time they discuss resolving this labour dispute. From my third party observation FortisBC likes the savings they’re realizing from having their employees locked out. If they truly wanted to negotiate a settlement, they could lift the lockout order and let the employees return to work while discussing a contract and/or ensure the only issues on the table are what were there in June. S. Robinson, Winfield
Gas line location info was provided To the editor: The For the Record in the Sept. 28 edition of the Capital News mentioned third party damage that occurred to our natural gas system in Rutland on Sept. 20. It was alleged in the article that FortisBC did not provide an accurate map to the contractor.
This is incorrect. FortisBC has reviewed its records and did provide a map to the requestor registered with the B.C. One Call ticket, which clearly demonstrated a gas line in the vicinity of the work being performed. The damage which occurred in Rutland
serves as a reminder to assess very carefully any FortisBC mapping that is reproduced by third parties working on your behalf. We are always available as a resource regarding our locate information. While this was an unfortunate incident, we
thank the first responders who helped make the area safe, and apologize to any public that were inconvenienced as a result of this incident. Ian Turnbull, FortisBC damage prevention and emergency services manager
United Way upbeat about poll results To the editor: Thank you to the Capital News for your Sound Off poll asking the question: “Will you be giving a donation to the United Way fundraising campaign this year?” The results posted in the Wednesday, Oct. 2, edition might leave some to think we’d be disappointed with a “no” response of 89 per cent. But we actually think that is fantastic. Looking
over participation rates from campaigns over the previous five years, the percentage of Central Okanagan residents who have contributed to the United Way campaign has hovered around 1.5 to three per cent. That’s why our goal this year is about increasing participation an extra one per cent, or 1,800 more people, and the immense ripple effects that would have on the health
and stability of our community. A participation rate of 11 per cent, as your poll indicates, would be an unprecedented show of generosity, allowing the United Way to invest three to five fold in an important network of local charities doing amazing work for children and families, and vulnerable adults and seniors. CRA statistics indicate about 23 per cent of
Anti-abortion protests at KGH called pro-life bullying tactics To the editor: I was interested to read a letter in which the writer complained about the media article that labelled pro-life members as “anti-abortion.” The writer deemed the terminology “disrespectful.” Further on in the letter, the writer referred to “the old man in front of KGH on Tuesday mornings” ending the paragraph with “we are all humans in need of love and respect.” I take great exception to those people who parade their anti-abortion signs in front of Kelowna General Hospital on Tuesdays, the day that pregnancy terminations are performed. I do not think that their actions display “love and respect” at all. Canada now has a law against cyber bullying. Schools and work places are being more proactive in regards to bullying. Action is being taken in an attempt to protect Canadians from any form of bullying. I view the parading of anti-abortion
signs outside the main entrance to KGH as mean and painful bullying. What gives them the right to foist their opinions and pass judgement, by implication, on someone who is going to undergo an abortion? There are so many reasons beyond “extreme birth control” for abortions. How do they know why the patient is having an abortion? What effect does this bullying have on a grieving patient having to have a “medically necessary” termination? Or on any patient entering the hospital for the procedure? They all have their rights too. An abortion is a legal operation in Canada. No matter what anyone’s opinion of abortion is, I believe they have no right to public ally shame and harass patients through their actions. This harassment should stop. If the law can stop the cyber bully, this too should be stopped. N. Taylor, West Kelowna
Canadians claim charitable tax credits on their income tax filings, while research conducted by Imagine Canada finds that 84 per cent of Canadians self-identify as donors. Increasingly, private philanthropy is becoming the vehicle to create the programs and services we as citizens want to see in our communities. One of the key roles of our United Way is to encourage and facilitate this investment. Thank you to the 11 per cent who said “yes” to supporting this year’s campaign. We look forward to hearing from you. Marla O’Brien executive director, United Way of the Central and South Okanagan Similkameen
Design flaw with roundabouts To the editor: Some guy from England made it over to the North American continent a while back and in his back pocket he brought along the plans for roundabouts. I am not sure if it actually happened that way, however, those things seem to pop up almost everywhere lately. Some people are totally against roundabouts, others think they are the best thing since sliced bread. Well, they do have some benefits—that can’t be argued with. But how they are built, seems to be an arguable point. The ones that I have seen and used so far are all too small. That’s why they all have a “soft” shoulder on the inside so you can drive over it if needed (large vehicles). But in my opinion they should be built differently. For a right hand turn from one road into the other, you should not have to enter the circle at all. All 90 degree righthand turns should have their own lane without entering the roundabout. It would need some more room as well as acceleration lanes, but it would definitely make the use of them a heck of a lot simpler. Roger von Dach, Kelowna
Covering up lamp posts To the editor: The consensus of all who I have asked [about] the new lamp posts/lighting along Bernard Avenue is they will be alright when the trees have grown so you can’t see them. Need I say more? G. Evans, Peachland

service. That service automatically informs people,
via the email, about city news. But the real growth in the last quarter was seen in the number of people
visiting the city’s website and contacting city hall via social media from mobile devices. “That number was
up 77 per cent,” said Macklem. “It seems to be the way the public is going.” Two weeks ago at
the annual Union of B.C. Municipalities convention in Vancouver, the city won a best practices award from the government for

its web app that lets subscribers submit requests for service via the app. Macklem said when it comes to use of the Internet for public interaction, Kelowna often leads the pack. He said one city employee recently returned from a conference on municipal communications and said much of what was being explained to participants as cutting edge operations using the Internet and social media for public engagement, Kelowna was already doing. “She said she felt awkward having to keep putting up her hand saying we are doing that here already,” said Macklem. According to city clerk Stephen Fleming, Kelowna has been a leader in many ways of doing business at the local government level for many years. “When I came here (10 years ago), contracting out municipal garbage pick-up was something that was very controversial in the Lower Mainland,” he said. “But here it was already being done.” He added that one of the first forms he had
to sign was approval for a five-year extension to then-existing contracted out garbage pick-up service here, something that had been in place for close to 15 years at that point. The city, which has gone through a major re-organization in recent years, changed how it operates in order to not only work better, smarter and more efficiently, but also to be able to respond to public requests for service quicker. Winning praise from Coun. Andre Blanleil Monday for how quickly staff negotiated a deal with a local soccer club to create an indoor soccer facility in the new Glenmore Recreation Park, Macklem said having a more adaptable staff has helped make such strides possible. “Twenty years ago that would have taken a long, long time to do,” he said. Coun. Robert Hobson said while the city still uses traditional media, such as newspapers to inform the public, in addition to the social media and its e-Subscribe service, as a councillor he gets far fewer complaints from residents about their dealings with the city.

BMO OKANAGAN MARATHON MAKES DREAMS COME TRUE FOR SUNSHINE KIDS Jared from Kelowna, British Columbia is a compassionate eleven-year old who devotes his time to watching National Geographic, reading books on animals and caring for his two puppies. Coming from a family that encourages a strong respect for nature, Jared has always been concerned about animal rights and protecting endangered species. When Jared, who lives with cerebral palsy, got the chance to have a Sunshine Dream fulfilled, he began by drawing. He drew pictures of several different dreams: meeting ‘The Rock’, surfing in Hawaii and swimming with manatees. Then he left it up to The Sunshine Foundation of Canada to surprise him. “(Jared) loves surprises,” says his mother Michelle. “He wants everything to be an adventure.” Jared was ecstatic when he found out he was going to live his dream of swimming with mantees. “He was so shocked and happy,” remembers Michelle. “His eyes got so big you could just see his gratitude. He almost made everyone cry.” When Jared finally met the manatees, he was in awe. “He’s been in love with manatees since he was three. He really empathizes with them because they’re endangered,” explains Michelle. Since coming back from the dream, his family has adopted a manatee in Jared’s name. After his experience swimming with the manatees, Jared has become even more determined to fulfill his next dream of pursuing a career as a marine biologist. The Sunshine Foundation of Canada is the only national charity impacting the lives of children challenged by severe physical disabilities or life-threatening illnesses by making their dreams come true. Since 1987, Sunshine has been trusted by families and healthcare providers to make dreams come true for over 7,000 children across Canada. Over the past 19 years, the BMO Okanagan Marathon has helped raise over $276,000 for Sunshine Kids in the Lower Mainland. Thank you for being a ‘dream maker’! If you would like more information on The Sunshine Foundation of Canada, please see one our Sunshine volunteers at The Sunshine booth.

Bobbi Kittle out the holiday season will lead to unwanted weight to lose heading into next year. We live in a land of abundance where delicious food is available year round. So why eat until we’re uncomfortable? Below are some changes you can make to your Thanksgiving dinner plans this year that will save you some guilt, calories and keep you from feeling sluggish Prevent over-stuffing yourself by fitting your meal all on one plate. Sample small portions and avoid seconds. Thanksgiving foods are typically richer and more filling, so eat slowly and savour every bite. The more socializing you do at the dinner table, the less you’ll eat, so enjoy the company of your family and friends. The break after the big meal is done but before pie is served is the perfect time to get some exercise and let your food digest.

Holding the donation cheque are (from left) Barb Gordon, Susan Steen with the COHA, and Natasha Gammel. Tom Gordon, married to Barb for 41 years, fought a very courageous, but short seven-week battle with brain cancer last year, spending his final days at the Central Okanagan Hospice House. Tom loved his friends and to play golf, so his family decided to that hosting a golf tournament fundraiser in support of hospice care would be a fitting way to remember him.
New transit exchange opens
L
ast Tuesday, I had the opportunity to participate in the grand opening of the new Rutland Transit Exchange and the announcement of three new vicinity buses to service Kelowna. Many students, seniors, residents and commuters all rely on transit services every day to travel, commute and get to school. That is why our government has invested more than $10 million to improving transit in the Kelowna area, since 2001. These investments help make transit more attractive, reduce congestion and encourage more people to ride the bus. Like many B.C. communities, we have seen tremendous growth in Kelowna and with that growth is a need for more transit service. Families, commuters and residents of Rutland will enjoy this new, modern exchange, with wide sidewalks, seating areas, artwork and decorative lighting. All of this is part of the Rutland Transit Improvement Project, which includes three new bus pull-outs on Highway 33, pedestrian upgrades on Dougall Road, bus stop improvements between Dougall Rd and Rutland Road, and extending Shepherd Road to accommodate transit service. The Rutland transit exchange forms part of Kelowna’s Frequent Transit Network. The frequent transit network is a fancy way of saying that passengers will get reliable and frequent transit service – with buses running every fifteen minutes during peak periods. The new exchange will also provide passengers with direct access to the final

phase of RapidBus when it’s complete in the fall of 2014. Last month, the Premier was in Westbank to kickoff construction for RapidBus on the Westside, which includes extending the service from downtown to West Kelowna and the Westbank
First Nation. Once complete, the entire RapidBus route will provide 30 kilometres of service between UBCO and West Kelowna, saving people even more time. Ridership has grown by almost 500,000 rides across the Kelowna regional transit system since RapidBus started in 2010, and is expected to grow even more with the expansion of RapidBus to the Westside. This new exchange wouldn’t be possible without the $1.4 million contribution of the federal government, our provincial government, which contributed $2 million, and $1.1 million from the City of Kelowna. The investments were made in the transit exchange, and in the revitalization of the Rutland Town Centre. There have been several major infrastructure improvements in our region in the past year. Keeping our roads safe and efficient is important, but there’s more to improving and maintaining our infrastructure. Effective public transit allows our communities to grow, attract further investment, and gives residents more options in their daily lives. The opening of the new transit exchange will mean a clean, safe place for residents to wait for the bus and more efficient transfers. Norm Letnick is the Liberal MLA for Kelowna-Lake Country.

▼ WHL
Rockets look to build on fast start Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER
The only team in the WHL yet to lose a game this season in regulation, the Kelowna Rockets are off to one of the best starts in franchise history. Factor in back-to-back wins over the defending champion Portland Wintehawks on the weekend at Prospera Place, and the Rockets (5-0-0-1) are also setting the benchmark early in the 2013-14 campaign. Still, as proficient as the Rockets have been in the win-loss column, head coach Ryan Huska said his club still has some work to do. “I hate to say it, but I almost feel like our record is a little misleading,” said Huska. “Last year, we dropped our first three
games and I thought we played very well. We haven’t been overly happy with our first few games this year…the last few games our guys have been taking steps in the right direction, so that’s a good sign for us.” Twenty-year-old goalie Jordon Cooke was nothing short of spectacular over two games for the Rockets on the weekend, stopping 77 shots and pacing the Rockets to 6-2 and 6-3 victories over the ‘Hawks. “I thought Jordon was the story in the first game, he was great and was the difference for us,” said Huska. “We didn’t have a good start on Saturday, but as a team I thought we played better as the game went along.” Jarred Schamehorn, a Kelowna native, was in

JORDON Cooke made 77 saves to backstop the Kelowna Rockets to a pair of victories over the defending WHL Portland Winterhawks on the weekend at Prospera Place. the Winterhawks’ net on Saturday night. As for registering 11 of a possible 12 points, Huska said his club can’t rest on its accomplishments over the first six games. “There are still things to work on,” Huska said. “The challenge for coaches sometimes is when you do have success, it’s nat-
ural for the guys to think things are going to come easy. We can’t have that, we need the guys to play with an edge and we need them to compete if we’re going to build off this.” Huska liked the efforts of several Rockets over the weekend, including a pair of the team’s younger players. Forward Nick Merkley, 16, had
two goals and two assists, while defenceman Riley Stadel, 17, scored three times. “We’ve been surprised by Nick, he’s been terrific for us,” Huska said. “Riley has done a really good job and he’s pushing hard to be in the lineup every night. It’s exciting for the future when you have young guys playing like
they are.” The Rockets return to action Tuesday night when they visit the Spokane Chiefs (5-1-0). “They play the game very hard,” Huska said of the Chiefs. “After a big and fairly emotional weekend, this is a big test for us.” Kelowna is back on home ice Friday to play
host to the Western Conference-leading Seattle Thunderbirds (6-2-0).

Productive road trip keeps West Kelowna Warriors on top A busy road trip was also a largely productive one for the BCHL’s West Kelowna Warriors. Despite watching their six-game winning streak end on Friday, the Warriors still earned five of a possible six points on a weekend tour of the Coastal Division.
Playing three games in as many days, West Kelowna wrapped up the trip on Sunday with 6-1 win over the hometown Cowichan Valley Capitals. Jason Cotton had two goals and two assists and Ambrose Firkus added three assists as the Warriors (8-2-0-1) tallied five
second-period goals, won for the eighth time in nine games to remain in top spot in the Interior Division. The Warriors blew the game open with five goals in a six-minute span to open the second period, including two on the power play.
“I think we were just keeping it simple,” Cotton says of his team’s powerplay units. The Warriors went 3-for-6 on the power play in Duncan and Cotton suggests simply “getting pucks to the net” was a big part of that success. Goaltender Andy Desautels was sharp, stop-
ping 34 of 35 shots in the West Kelowna net for his eighth win of the season. The Warriors sixgame streak end on Friday night with a 4-3 overtime loss in Powell River. West Kelowna then rebounded Saturday in Nanaimo for a 4-2 win over the Clippers.
Liam Blackburn broke a 2-2 with eight minutes into the third period for the game winner. The Warriors are back on home ice Friday night when they host the Merritt Centennials in a 7 p.m. start at Royal LePage Place. Prince George will

n a a FRED SCHAAD/CONTRIBUTORf A OKANAGAN Sun defensive back RobbieYochim is about to make one of his t two interceptions against the Kamloops Broncos in BCFC action Sunday at the Apple Bowl. S
Sun defense shines
Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER
If the Okanagan Sun made a statement over the last three weeks of the BCFC regular season, chances are that message had a lot to do with being playoff-ready—particularly on defense. The Sun manufactured a franchise-record third consecutive shutout Sunday at the Apple Bowl, with a 51-0 drubbing of the Kamloops Broncos. Under first-year head coach Shane Beatty, Okanagan outscored its opponents 142-0 over the last three games to finish the regular campaign at 8-2, a dramatic turnaround from last season’s uninspiring 3-7 performance. The Sun defense shone yet again Sunday, picking off four passes, recovering a fumble and forcing four turnovers on downs, while extending its shutout streak to 12 quarters. “V.I. (Raiders) said they’re the best defense in the league, so we wanted to come out an make a statement ourselves today,” Beatty said. “I think
we have 56 turnovers now, created over 10 games so that leaves a statement now. We’ll see what we’ve got now, we’ve got Langley…we’ll see what we’re made of.” Expected to be a considerably stauncher test than either Kamloops or Chilliwack, the defending champion Rams will visit the Apple Bowl in next Sunday’s BCFC semifinal. Beatty has a healthy respect for the 7-3 Rams and their uber-talented offense and expects a classic confronatiation against the Okanagan defense. “To me they’re the best team in the league,” said Beatty. “Offensively they’re fast with a great quarterback and great running back. To me that’s the best offence in the league and we’re the best defence in the league, so it’ll be a great matchup.” One individual bonus to Sunday’s was win was a record-setting performance by Tommy Howes. The fifth-year receiver caught six passes, setting a new single season record for receptions with 58—one more than Matt Schuerwater caught in 2009.
n C o d t
And the record-setter came in dramatic styleg as Howes caught a 60-f yard TD pass from TheoO Deezar in the third quar-g ter. “I don’t want to saye it doesn’t mean much toa be now but we’re really focused on the season ahead,” Howes, 22, said of the record. “I’m sure once I’m done playing and reflect on it then it’s going to mean a whole lot more.” Howes’ play on Sunday and his value to the Sun all season long drew the praise of his head coach. “Phenomenal kid, a great ambassador of this program,” Beatty said of Howes. “He’s a great kid, a great receiver and he’s got a bright future ahead of him.” The Sun and Rams will kick off the BCFC semifinal at 2 p.m. Sunday at the Apple Bowl.

Canada took back the lead in the 38th minute after a powerful run by Kate Gillis along the back line and a perfect pass to Thea Culley for her second goal of the match With a meagre one goal lead for Canada with ten minutes to go, Chile picked up the pace of their play and created some hot situations in the Canadian circle. Canadian goal-keeper
Kaitlyn Williams stopped a penalty-corner with a spectacular dive with three minutes to go to preserve the win and the bronze for Canada. “Great team effort to win bronze for Canada,” Hennisg wrote on her Twitter account. Raye, 22, has been with the national senior team since 2009 and has 91 caps. Hennig, 22, played her first game in 2010 and has 53 caps, while Sourisseau, 20, joined the Canadian team in 2011 and has 46 caps.

A trio of Kelowna field hockey products are wearing bronze medals after Canada’s performance at the 2013 Pan American Cup in Argentina. Abigail Raye, Natalie Sourisseau and Dani Hennig were all part of the Canadians’ 2-1 victory over Chile last week Mendoza, Argentina in the third/fourth place final. All three players are graduates of KSS and former members of the Owls’ field hockey program. It was the first continental medal for the Canadians since the 2004 Pan
Am Cup. After going 2-1 in pool play with wins over Guyana (8-0) and Trinidad and Tobago (5-0) and a loss to Argentina, Canada fell 4-0 to the USA in the semis. In the bronze medal game vs Chile, the Canadians were dominating the proceedings and earned a series of penalty-corners, opening the scoring in the ninth minute on a goal by Thea Culley. After Chile had a narrow escape a few minutes later on a powerful penalty-corner by Danielle Hennig, the Chil-

Ok Rockets sweep pair from Blazers A sweep of the Thompson Blazers has the Okanagan Rockets at the top of the B.C. Major Midget League standings three weeks into the season. The Rockets took both ends of the home-andhome set to push their 2013-14 record to 5-1-0. On Saturday in Kamloops, Tanner Wishnowski had a goal and two assists and Mahlon Head scored twice in a 6-3 Rockets win. Linden Hora, Cory Santoro and Jake Kryski also scored for Okanagan, while Brendan Barry stopped 17 shots in the win. On Sunday night at CNC, the Rockets completed the sweep in emphatic fashion with an
11-2 thumping of the Blazers. After falling behind 1-0 early, the Rockets retaliated with three goals just 35 seconds apart in the first period. Liam Finlay, who played a day earlier with the BCHL’s Penticton Vees, led the Okanagan attack with two goals and four points. Hora and Head each added a pair while Wishnowski added a goal and two assists. Barry earned his second win of the weekend making 17 stops. The Rockets have Thanksgiving weekend off, before returning to action Oct. 19 and 20 when they host the Kootenay Ice for two games at the Capital News Centre.

CUISINE from Jude’s kitchen give thanks Much as I love spring with its freshness and spring sprouts, colourful flowers and being able to see the ground again, I also love fall, with its crisp days and cold nights, bountiful harvest of comfort foods and homegrown fruits and vegetables. It’s so rewarding to be able to pick squashes, potatoes, garlic, onions, tomatoes, parsley, thyme, oregano, tarragon and basil and combine all of that in one sumptuous dish that screams THANKS for all these fresh flavours. I think that’s why I love this vegetable casserole so much. It’s such a traditional ritual now that we have it many times around this time of year when there’s lovely fresh basil to scatter a chiffonade on top of the hot vegetables as the casserole comes out of the oven. And, how better to celebrate Thanksgiving than with a vegetable dish that exemplifies what we’re giving thanks for: fresh, homegrown food that we can cook up and share with the family and friends we love. Sharing local foods when they’re in season with those we love is an important part of our social culture. All special occasions are marked by particular foods, from the birthday cake to the turkey at Thanksgiving; from the Canada Day barbecue to the spiral sandwiches traditionally served at wedding showers. As the fall Okanagan Wine Festival wraps up this week, take a few hours to enjoy at least one special event, even if it’s just a visit to a local winery to pick up a perfect bottle of wine to pair with dinner, and in the process learn a little more about the industry that’s become such an important part of the economy of this valley. For details of events, go to: www.thewinefestivals.com If pairing wine and foods interests you, pick up a copy of my book, Jude’s Kitchen, which includes nearly 200 recipes such as this vegetable casserole, for local food, in season, as well as wine pairings with B.C. wines, written as margin notes by renowned wine writer John Schreiner. It’s available at such bookshops as Mosaic in downtown Kelowna, or the B.C.Wine Museum; Calona Vineyards Wine Shop and Quails’ Gate Estate Winery in West Kelowna.
Quick Blueberry Sorbet A light dessert makes good sense after a heavy meal of turkey with its trimmings, and there’s little that’s lighter or more refreshing than a fruit sorbet. Use the B.C. blueberries you froze last month in this. Thanks to the B.C. Blueberry Council for this recipe. 1 c. (250 ml) water 1 1/2 c. (375 ml) sugar 1 lb. (500 g) frozen blueberries 1 tbsp. (15 ml) lemon juice In a medium-sized pot, bring the sugar and water to a boil and stir
until the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and cool. In a blender, combine blueberries, half the syrup mixture and the lemon juice and blend until it’s smooth. Taste and add more syrup if the mixture is not sweet enough. Pour into a container or moulds and freeze until firm, about two or three hours. If you have an ice cream maker, you could finish this in the ice cream maker. Serves 6-8.

Vegie Layers with Basil & Cheese
This dish has wide appeal, even for those who profess not to care much for some of the individual components. Vary the cheeses with fresh parmesan or gouda in addition to the Swiss if you like. The vegetables used can also be varied according to what's available. For instance, asparagus, other summer squashes and eggplant are all good in this as well. We paired this with the 2012 Intrigue Wines Riesling, which was delicious, with loads of fresh orchard fruit balanced nicely with crisp citrus for a refreshing finish. It would be fabulous with turkey too. 2 cloves garlic 1/4 c. (60 ml) olive oil 2 large potatoes 1 large onion 2 zucchini 2 tomatoes 1 1/2 c. (375 ml) Swiss cheese 1 tbsp. (15 ml) fresh herbs handful of fresh basil leaves salt and pepper, to taste Pre-heat oven to 425 F.
Use a fairly shallow casserole dish, about 9x12 inches. Smush and peel the garlic cloves, mince and heat the garlic in the olive oil in a very small jug so the oil is flavoured with garlic. Pour a wee drizzle in the bottom of the dish and spread it around. Thinly slice the potatoes, onion, zucchini and tomatoes and grate cheese. Arrange a layer of half of each vegetable, in that order, and sprinkle with salt and pepper, fresh herbs of your choice (parsley, oregano, thyme and even a little tarragon are all good), and some of the grated cheese. Repeat with the remaining vegetables, topping them with the garlic and the oil, drizzled as evenly as possible, then top it with all with the remaining cheese. Cook, uncovered, in a pre-heated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender when pierced with a skewer. Pile the basil leaves and then roll them up from the side and slice them thinly. Remove the vegetable casserole from the oven and sprinkle the shredded fresh basil over the top. Serves 4-6.
