▼ JAMES LAKE

Man looking for firewood found dead

STAFF REPORTER

CONTRIBUTOR

You don’t have to wait 24 hours to report a loved one missing, according to the Central Okanagan Search and Rescue and Kelowna RCMP. This was the takeaway from an incident in Ellison over the weekend which saw a 40-year-old man from Kelowna die while apparently out looking for firewood near James Lake—and remain missing for nearly 24 hours. Accessed via Bata Road in the hills behind Sunset Ranch Golf and Country Club, the James Lake area is a heavily wooded enclave patterned with small dirt side roads that would make a search a difficult task, particularly as the authorities were not contacted until six hours after the individual, whose name has not been released to media, was due back. “Obviously, I don’t want to put any blame on the family,” said Const. Kris Clark, Kelowna RCMP spokesman. “…But those are daylight hours that we could have been searching.” The man left home on Saturday morning and was expected to return around 3 p.m. He was reported missing to Kelowna RCMP close to 9 p.m. at night. The police initiated a ground search immediately, but quickly recognized they would need more personnel. Central Okanagan Search and Rescue was called in shortly before 1 a.m. Sunday morning and Vernon Search and Rescue was en route when the body was located very close to the man’s vehicle on a side road in the area. It was 4:45 a.m. Clark said television shows portray police as wanting loved ones to wait 24, or sometimes 48 hours, before contacting police, but it’s really best to call as soon as one perceives there to be a problem. There are no repercussions if a person reported missing is found immediately. A statement issued Monday morning indicates the search and rescue team is of the same mind.

Looking his victim’s widow in the eye in a Kelowna courtroom Monday, Mark Batraki apologized for causing a crash that took the life of Jules Kreeft. “I’m terribly sorry for what happened. I wish there was more I could do,” Batraki told Vivian Kreeft. “I just want you to know I wish this never happened.” Batraki, 38, pleaded guilty Monday to driving without due care and attention in relation the March 2012 crash that killed Jules and injured Vivian. They had been waiting for a red light on their motorcycle when they were rear-ended. Outside court, Vivian told reporters she didn’t hold any ill will against Batraki, who has had trouble with the law since his parents died, one within a year of the other, when he was a teenager. “We all make mistakes,” she said. “I just hope he can get some counselling. “It’s got to be hard for him, losing his parents at a young age.”

▼ AGRICULTURE

Honey producers gather in Kelowna to talk about bees Can you imagine life in our gorgeous Okanagan Valley without apples, cherries, pears, plums, peaches, apricots, berries and most vegetables? That reality is not far away if we don’t solve the puzzle of what is killing our honeybees. The problem is even bigger; bees are responsible for one out of every three mouthfuls of food we eat and without bees our food supply would be drastically diminished. These unsung pol-

linators are the unpaid labourers of our agricultural system. Beekeepers, who think of themselves as part farmers and part scientists, have been struggling to understand what is causing mass colonies of bees to die or disappear. They wage a war with bacterial and viral diseases, ever adapting parasites and environmental factors that are attacking local bee populations. Honeybees flourish in warm months but often struggle to survive our

cold and damp winters. Winter losses of five to 15 per cent are predictable but recently, high rates of loss over 50 per cent have been reported that are unexplained by the weather. Combine these factors with the increased use of pesticides, herbicides and industrial pollutants, and the bee population faces an uphill challenge for survival. But it’s not all gloom and doom. British Columbia, and the Okanagan specifically, have a thriving community of bee-

keepers who are dedicated and committed to improving the odds for the bees. B.C. has more than 2,000 beekeepers and bee breeders who tend more than 40,000 bee colonies. These beekeepers range from large commercial operations with thousands of hives, to parttime sideliners with up to 100 hives down to backyard hobbyists with one or two hives. And it’s not all about pollination. Beekeepers produce a wide variety of products from their hives.

Natural and flavoured liquid and creamed honey, beeswax, pollen, propolis, royal jelly, mead (wine made from honey) and cosmetics just to name a few. Many of these products are available at farmers’ markets, local stores and markets and farmgate sales. Among the many organizations that support bees and beekeepers is the B.C. Honey Producers Association, a province-wide community of beekeepers, bee breeders,

academics and industry representatives. This month, the local chapter of the BCHPA will host the provincial association’s Annual General Meeting, Conference and Trade Show. The Best Western Hotel in Kelowna will play host to nearly 200 convention attendees for the three-day event, Oct. 25 to 27. The conference will feature 15 guest speakers drawn from across Canada and the U.S. tackling the challenges and ad-

dressing innovations. The trade show, open to the public Oct. 26 and 27, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., will be filled with industry representatives supplying products and services for all those involved. An introduction to beekeeping workshop will also be open to the public on Sunday, Oct. 27, from 1 to 2 p.m., and 2 to 3 p.m. The registration fee for the workshop is $15. For more information about the conference see http://www.HiveandThrive.com.

Barbecue eyed as source of Belgo house fire A two-storey residence was destroyed by fire late last Friday evening in the Belgo area. The fire broke out at a Garner Road house shortly after 10 p.m. as Kelowna Fire Department responded to the scene with a rescue truck, a bush truck and a command unit along with 16 firefighters.

When the fire department arrived, the house was already fully engulfed in flames. One male occupant was home when the fire started and he, along with his dog, escaped from the burning structure unharmed. While firefighting efforts kept the fire from spreading to adjacent

buildings, the home is a total loss. Emergency services has assisted in finding temporary accommodation for the family of five left homeless by the fire. The fire department says it is believed that the fire started in the area of the barbecue, which was in use when the fire was discovered.

Missing from A1 “Please call the RCMP so they can call the closest search and rescue group and we can start looking for your loved ones and bring them home,” said Duane Tresnich, spokesperson for Central Okanagan Search and Rescue, in a press release emphasizing the importance of a timely response. This search involved RCMP, two search and rescue trucks and four all-terrain vehicles. Both the RCMP and coroner are said to be investigating. RCMP have found nothing suspicious about the death thus far.

“We felt that we didn’t win the race, but we won Canada…we were so warmly received by the Canadian public.” In the first leg of the race, Johnson and McLeod travelled to Kelowna to compete in sever-

al tasks. The couple instantly fell in love with the city and, according to McLeod, are seriously considering living in the area. “It’s a process in terms of finding something. When we arrived that first leg of the Amazing Race,

▼ RUNNING FOR ETHIOPIA

Great BIG Run covers 100km relay Runners from the Okanagan-Shuswap will be taking to the streets Sunday, Oct. 27, to raise support for a local charity’s poverty fighting work in Ethiopia. Now in its ninth year, the Great BIG Run for Africa hopes to raise $25,000 for Partners in the Horn of Africa, as well as better awareness of the organization’s work among Okanagan-Shuswap residents. Over the past nine years, the run has raised over $140,000 and has changed thousands of lives in Ethiopia through projects providing small business start-up financing and training, clean water supply, safe schools and quality education, and critical support to orphans and vulnerable children.

A Great BIG Run for Africa is a 100km relay from West Kelowna to the Partners in the Horn of Africa office in Enderby along Highway 97. Last year, 30 runners raised $25,000 for microfinance programs helping Ethiopian women create viable small businesses. Stephanie Moore, chair of the event this year, said, “We still require runners for the October 27 event and any level of runner may participate doing one leg of the journey from five to 25 kilometres—pre-registration is necessary as we may only have two runners on the road at any one time.” Runners collect pledges and donations—just $70 is all it takes to help one impoverished woman start her own small business in Ethiopia. The idea for A Great BIG Run for Africa was conceived in 2004 when Kelowna resident Alison Moscrop travelled to Ethiopia to see first-hand the projects that Partners in the Horn of Africa was doing to fight poverty in Ethiopia. One day, awoken in the early morning by the sound of hundreds of people running along the streets of Addis Ababa, she learned that many people in the country par-

ticipate in races barefoot or in whatever shoes they own just for the love of running. Upon her return to Canada, she wanted to create a fundraiser that would incorporate running to support Partners’ projects. In 2005, A Great BIG Run for Africa was born when Stephanie Moore and Crystal Flaman, both runners and friends of Alison Moscrop, suggested they would run 100km to raise awareness and funds for Ethiopia. Today the run is done as a relay enabling more people to participate. To take part, please contact Stephanie Moore at stephmoorepersonaltraining@telus.net and for more info about the charity go to www.partnersinthehorn.org. Partners in the Horn of Africa, now in our 12th year of operation, works with communities in remote areas of Ethiopia, focusing our work in areas of unmet need. Its projects respond to community requests, addressing needs for education, basic infrastructure, gender equality, food security, and sustainable livelihoods. The organization follows two basic principles: •All projects are pro-

posed by the community or Ethiopian partner, which has to contribute at least 15 per cent of the total project cost. The Ethiopian partner plays an essential role in project design, decision-making, implementation, and monitoring. • The total 100 per cent of any donation to Partners goes directly toward project costs in Ethiopia. Administrative costs are covered by Friends of the Horn of Africa, a sister organization that is funded by directors and staff, and a growing number of committed individuals, trade unions, corporations and foundations. “We draw our strength from the vision, support, and expertise of residents of the Okanagan-Shuswap and we welcome the opportunity to connect with individuals, community and service groups, and schools and businesses in our communities,” Moore said. “With the public’s support, we’ve now completed over 250 community-based projects.” For more information on Partners in the Horn of Africa, visit www.partnersinthehorn.org and download the newsletter.

Judges wanted punishment for man with bad Armed pub goer pleads guilty driving history who caused fatal accident Cheryl Weirda CONTRIBUTOR

A man arrested at a Rutland pub with a loaded handgun tucked in the back of his pants has pleaded guilty to some of the weapons charges laid against him. Ryan Bradley Allin was 29 when police arrested him at the Willow Park Pub on Dec. 15, 2012. RCMP say he had a loaded .45 calibre pistol tucked in his pants and a knife hanging from a chain around his neck. A second handgun was

Driver from A1 And while Judge James Threlfall also accepted Batraki’s remorse, he said Batraki’s driving record prompted him to go against the suggested sentence of a $2,000 fine—the maximum--and a one year driving prohibition. Threlfall said Batraki’s lengthy driving record, dating back to 1994, includes three dangerous driving convictions and four driving prohibitions, including one that stretched from March 2004 until two months before the fatal crash. As well, Batraki was caught speeding three months after the crash that killed Kreeft, Threlfall noted before going against the sentence proposed by lawyers in the case. Threlfall instead gave Batraki a $1,500 fine, a three month jail sentence—to be served after he completes his current jail sentence for an unrelated criminal offence— and a five year driving ban. Kreeft’s son, Danny, clapped briefly after hearing the sentence. “A little better, good to hear,” he said outside the courtroom. Prior to the judge’s decision, Danny said the sentence proposed by lawyers in the case was a “slap on the wrist.” While he forgives Batraki, he also wants Batraki to be punished for his actions and would like to see more significant charges for those involved in a fatal crash. “Driving with undue care and attention, you get that for hitting a guy in a parking lot,” said Danny. “There’s lots of charges out there. Unfortunately, the driving act protects people against that kind of stuff.” During sentencing, Threlfall noted it was the Crown’s decision to proceed with the Motor Vehicle Act charge, rather than a more serious charge related to the March 20, 2012 crash. That afternoon, Jules and Vivian were on their Harley on Harvey Avenue, waiting at the red light at Cooper Road, when they were rammed from behind by a rented Jeep Grand Cherokee driven by Batraki. The force of the collision sent the motorcycle into the cube van stopped in front of the motorcycle.

cing hearing, defence lawyer Kelly Christensen said Batraki had performed two shoulder checks in anticipation of a lane change shortly before hitting the motorcycle. Jules, 59, was fatally injured in the crash and

Vivian’s injuries included two broken hips, four broken ribs and a torn lung. She says she has had one hip replaced and is awaiting a replacement of the other, and suffers from vertigo as a result of her injuries.

Those charges include carrying a concealed prohibited weapon or ammunition, unauthorized possession of a firearm, possession of a prohibited weapon with ammunition and possession of a firearm contrary to order. A pre-sentence report has been ordered. Allin’s case is scheduled to return to court in December to set a sentencing date.

Basil and pesto festival pitched for the Central Okanagan Jennifer Smith STAFF REPORTER

Twenty-five years ago, Kelowna city councillor Maxine DeHart says she had to go all the way to Vancouver for a flavourful Italian staple as there was none to be had in the region. But now that Juhlie Curatolo is one step closer to living in her own home on the family’s basil farm,

it’s possible the farm gate retail operation she’s helping to develop will include the kind of event lavender farms throughout the province have made popular. “We have a focaccia bread topping for bakeries; as well, we are starting to do fresh (basil),” said Juhlie as she launched into the family’s pitch to build a secondary home on their Benvoulin

Road property. Located in the centre of the city, the farm is a perfect agritourism site as it is accessible to those shopping at the mall nearby, packed with potential for value-added products to be made on site and boasts a century-old farm history as well. Vince Curatolo began his basil farming operation 20 years ago with seedlings on his kitch-

en table and the business soon blossomed to include growing, cleaning and packaging sites throughout the Okanagan. In 2010, the Curatolos were able to purchase a farm in the Benvoulin farm corridor, which had been farmed from 19291953 but had not been productive in decades. A sizeable section of the property was earmarked as too wet to farm

but, upon assuming control of the property, the family found a creative solution to work within its limitations. Removing a thick layer of salt in the soil of the corner which could not grow crops, they reconstructed the land with better dirt and a bold plan that saw Vince and his wife, Lesah, build a new 2000-square foot home to work from. Julie wants to join them to get more hands on deck as operation continues to expand, but under the Agricultural Land Commission’s rules she can only live in the couple’s basement, in a secondary suite, or in a mobile home which could presumably be removed from the property should farming requirements demand. But the secondary

suite is not a viable option, she says, and the mobile home is actually a far more costly affair than the simple home the family would like to build. And having the family all living on site is important to the operation. “We don’t just grow a product and then ship it off to the co-op,” said Juhlie. “…If you’re not there, and something goes wrong, you lose your product.” In a city already besieged by so-called estate farms where ever-bigger farm houses crowd out valuable agricultural land in close proximity to the city, the Curatolos argument is risky. It was too much for City of Kelowna planning staff to swallow, given the precedent it could set for other farmers. But the council made

an exception. With the Curatolos already selling to big food companies like Sysco Canada, Gordon Food Services and Saputo Foods, they are adamant they have farming needs, not a boost in land value, in mind and the councillors were willing to listen. The farm is shortly to include greenhouses to extend the growing season so it can offer that fresh product to those big companies and more jobs to the local economy. And they’re hoping farm gate operations will begin within the next year. The Curatolos will still have to convince the Agricultural Land Commission their vision is the most appropriate course of action, however, before Juhlie can build her home on site and help shape the pesto farm vision.

Flu shot vaccines are ready With flu season approaching, public health nurses across Interior Health are gearing up for this year’s influenza (flu) vaccination campaign. Last year, over 173,000 seasonal flu shots were provided free of charge to those at risk of complications from the flu. “The World Health Organization (WHO) determines the strains to be included in the annual influenza vaccine based on flu trends worldwide. This year’s vaccine contains three different flu strains that will offer protection against two influenza A viruses and one influenza B virus,” said Dr. Rob Parker, medical health officer with Interior Health. “Getting a flu shot and washing your hands frequently are the two most effective ways to protect yourself and other from getting the flu.” The flu is highly contagious and can cause severe complications for those with heart, lung, and other health problems. Even if you don’t become severely ill, getting the flu can mean several missed days of school, work and other activities. To find a flu clinic near you, watch for local announcements on dates and times in your community, visit our website at www.interiorhealth.ca/FluClinics, or contact your local public health centre. Many physician offices and pharmacies also provide vaccines free to those who are eligible. Flu shots are safe, effective and free

for those most at risk of getting the flu and its complications including: • People 65 years and older and their caregivers/household contacts • People of any age in residential care facilities • Children and adults with chronic health conditions and their household contacts • Children and adolescents (6 months to 18 years) with conditions treated for long periods of time with Aspirin (ASA) and their household contacts • Children & adults who are morbidly obese • Aboriginal people • All children 6-59 months of age • Household contacts and caregivers of infants and children 0-59 months of age • Pregnant women at any stage of pregnancy during the influenza season and their household contacts • Visitors to hospitals, health centres and residential care facilities • People who work with live poultry • Health care and other care providers in facilities and community settings who are capable of transmitting influenza disease to those at high risk of influenza complications. For more information, contact your local public health office or visit our website at www.interiorhealth.ca. Information on the flu shot is also available at the websites www.immunizebc.ca, or www.healthlinkbc.ca.

Senate remains a political mess

he scandal over the Senate grew larger Monday, with allegations from Senator Mike Duffy’s lawyer that Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s office knew a lot more about Duffy’s controversial expenses than the PM is admitting. These are simply allegations from a lawyer, but there is a hint that Duffy has some evidence to back these claims, in the form of emails from the prime minister’s office (PMO). The impetus for this extra-

ordinary spectacle of a senator in disrepute taking aim at the prime minister who appointed him to the Senate is a move being pushed by the Conservatives (almost certainly crafted in the PMO). They want to take away the pay of Senators Duffy, Pamela Wallin and Patrick Brazeau — even though Duffy and Wallin, as yet, are facing no charges. Brazeau is facing charges in a domestic dispute, and has been suspended with pay from the Senate. His expenses are

also in question, but he faces no charges on this matter yet. While public opinion likely backs the suspension of the three senators’ pay, all of us, even senators in disrepute, deserve fair process. To take away the pay of senators who have been accused of wrongdoing in the media, who are under investigation but not facing any charges, is moving far too swiftly and sets a very bad precedent. There may well be a case for suspending Brazeau’s pay, given that he is facing crimin-

al charges, but for the moment Duffy and Wallin should have the right to confront their accusers head-on and sit in the Senate until charged with criminal offences. The uproar over their expenses is legitimate, but it is not yet a criminal matter. Suspending their pay is a brazen attempt to try and take the heat off the prime minister, who appointed all three and campaigned on a platform of Senate reform. The Conservatives and PMO cooked up a scheme which may come back to bite

Portfolios of Status of Women, and Labour intersect in important ways

ctober is Women’s History Month in Canada and it was an honour recently to host our new Minister for the Status of Women Canada and Minister of Labour, Dr. Kellie Leitch. The portfolios for which Minister Leitch is responsible intersect each other in important ways, especially when it comes to encouraging Canadian women and girls to fully participate and succeed in our economic and democratic life. The first stop on the minister’s visit was Aberdeen Hall Preparatory School where she joined students to celebrate International Day of the Girl to promote equal treatment and

opportunity for girls in areas such as law, nutrition, health care and education. It was an ideal location given that one of the students at Aberdeen Hall is Alaina Podmorow, the founder of Little Women 4 Little Women in Afghanistan and Canada’s first Honourary Youth Ambassador at the United Nations International Day of the Girl. Leitch had a lively conversation with the students about the challenges facing girls in today’s society and the

importance of education as a means of ensuring their full participation and success in all aspects of Canada’s social, economic and democratic life. It was a timely disRon Cannan cussion. While young women represent a majority of university graduates in Canada and there has been steady growth in their participation in the Canadian labour force, statistics show they remain under-represented in sectors such as the skilled trades and science and technology, representing the largest currently un-

tapped human resource to meet Canada’s occupational needs. In 2012, women held just 11.8 per cent of construction jobs, 19 per cent of forestry, fishing, mining, oil and gas jobs and 30.5 per cent of agricultural jobs; in the information technology professions, women maintained the same 25 per cent of jobs from 2000 to 2010, despite increasing demands for these skills; in 2007, despite representing 3 per cent of enrolments in the electrical, electronic and related trades, only 1.5 per cent of all graduates from these programs were women; in 2009, women made up only 2.2 per cent of registered apprenticeship completions in the build-

ing construction, electrical, industrial and mechanical, metal fabrication and motor vehicle and heavy equipment trades; and only 6.9 per cent overall work in trades, transport, equipment operations and related occupations. The need for greater participation in these fields was reiterated at an event I recently attended with business, educational and government leaders hosted by Applied Science Technologies & Technicians of British Columbia (ASTTBC) where only 9 per cent of members are female. Discussions focused on girls and the need to capture their interest at a See Cannan A11

LETTERS

Server’s side of respect the homeless letter To the editor: I would like to comment on the reply to the conversation about the homeless facing segregation. The individual, who wrote a letter to the editor on Oct. 10 (Homeless Deserve Respect Same As All of Us), about the homeless man in the coffee shop facing discrimination clearly had no idea what was actually going on. I am the cashier who served this man, and on this evening, he entered the coffee shop belligerently drunk and obviously high on some sort of drug. He immediately budged the line-up, ap-

proached the counter and started swearing and yelling at my colleague. My colleague turned to me for help, as she was clearly stunned and unsure of how to handle the situation. I took over and addressed the customer’s concern. He wanted to order two sandwiches and two drinks, which I gave to him, but since he was so rude and clearly inconsiderate of us cashiers and the people in the cafe, I politely asked if he would take his order outside. He complied with no problems, and left the store. Over the next four hours he came in another two times, and by the third

time he was coming off of his high so he was a little more polite. He was still unpleasant, however, and making a scene and a mess all over the place. I am writing this letter to clear up the confusion, as it puts a bad name on Kelowna businesses and it hurt my feelings to hear this. I take great pride in serving my customers, and by no means did I mean to “segregate” this man. It really was not a concern to me if he was homeless or not, it was purely the fact that he was disrespecting myself, my colleague and disrupting the cafe. We do not have

to put up with drunk customers yelling at us, threatening us or swearing at us. It is unfair to claim that we were discriminating against him because he was homeless, as this customer who complained clearly didn’t understand the context of what was going on. We have had this kind of situation before, where an individual under the influence of drugs or alcohol has caused a disturbance in the cafe. We contacted the police on these other occasions, and they told us that the best thing for us to do is ask them to leave the building. If they refuse to leave, then it be-

Motorcycles effectively banned from highways after Oct. 1 To the editor: I was surprised to learn last week that British Columbia effectively has a ban on motorcycles on many highways beginning Oct. 1. A friend and I were riding in dry +13 C brilliant sunshine on the Trans Canada Highway 15 km east of Kamloops when we were pulled over by an RCMP cruiser. The member was also a motorcycle rider and stopped us to cordially let us know that any highway that has posted a sign requiring winter tires cannot allow motorcycles, obviously not equipped winter tires. Apparently, we had earlier passed a sign (elevation 350 m—equal to

downtown Kelowna) indicating the mandatory use of winter tires after Oct. 1. The penalty is a fine and towing of the vehicle. I appreciate the member stopping only to inform us rather than imposing the letter of the law. As only a few motorcycle fanatics, mainly in Europe and often on bikes with sidecars, equip their machines with winter tires and/or chains, this is in effect, a ban on motorcycling from Oct. 1 to April 30 on these highways. And these roads are not only where we may think high elevation and early winter weather is the issue. After the stop, we return to Kelowna following our same route

through Falkland. I was surprised to see a winter tires required sign on the entrance to that highway as well, as did 16 other riders we passed while on that road. Personal and public safety is cited as the main reason for the regulation. However, it’s interesting to see that many highways with the regulation have parallel secondary roads without the posting (Highway 5 and 5A south of Kamloops as one example). And these roads have far more shaded curves, steeper grades and are far more narrow than found on the posted roads. I can’t help but think unimpeded traffic flow may be a greater motivating

factor than the government’s concern over our safety. Riders have always used personal judgement as to the safety of autumn roads and choosing what days/hours are ridable. Apparently, as with so many recent regulations, we must rely yet again on invisible all-knowing government technocrats for our safety. Funny. I don’t feel safer, just more and more enclosed. Canada, “our land glorious and free?” Less so every year. But “bureaucracy addicted and technocrat guided” is tough to put in a national anthem. Steve Noakes, Kelowna

comes appropriate for us to call the RCMP so that they can further deal with the situation. I was just following protocol, and the man in question complied with my request for him to leave the cafe. I hope this letter can clear up the confusion, and prove that there are always two sides to the story. In any case, it is important to understand both sides of the issue before taking further action. I hope the customer who wrote to the editor now knows the full extent of the story, and can adjust their claim accordingly. Sydney Fode, Kelowna

Mess left in wake of marathon To the editor: I’m sure I was not the only one somewhat displeased by the BMO Okanagan Marathoners for littering the entire route with their used energy packages. Obviously, focused as they were on completing the run, they were unconcerned with the mess they were leaving. In future the organizers would do well to provide trash bins at suitable intervals so runners could toss the empties in as they pass by, collect the bins later and thereby avoid an unsightly mess. That should not be too difficult, I would think. Guy King, Kelowna

Progress is being made for women entering trades Cannan from A10 younger age, particularly in the “S.T.E.M.” subjects, science, technology, engineering & math. One participant added an ‘A’ for the arts, noting that creativity is a vital component of innovation creating the “S.T.E.A.M.” needed to move forward. Leitch heard the same message at Okanagan College, where president Jim Hamilton and his team are putting an emphasis on the continued and increased participation of women in the labour force, particularly in non-traditional fields. Leitch had the chance to speak with Nancy Darling, the head of the Women in Trades pro-

gram who is doing some great work by successfully getting more young women involved in the trades. It is also a priority for the government which understands that in order to achieve our goals of jobs, growth and longterm prosperity women need to succeed in all sectors of our economy. With the advice of smart, energetic people like Leitch and Western Economic Diversification Minister Michelle Rempel in cabinet and initiatives like the recently launched advisory council to promote the participation of women on public and private corporate boards, I have confidence we are making progress.

I want to thank the minister for paying us a visit and inspiring the young women in our community to see that the sky is the limit and to live the message of this year’s Women’s History Month: Inspiring Change Through Ongoing Leadership. As a father of three daughters, husband to a working spouse and a member of this community, I know just how much we owe to the women in our lives—in business, education, social services and the arts—for their leadership and the contributions they make to our communities and Canadian society. They are a beacon for all that is possible. Infor-

UBCO program mixes language skills and academics Nobuyoshi Torigoe embraced one goal: Attend UBC Okanagan campus to earn a degree in applied science. However, while Torigoe aced the entrance requirements, his proficiency in English became a roadblock to his success. It was a trend administrators at UBC were seeing consistently, with brilliant young minds turned away because they couldn’t quite pass the English Language Admission Standards test. “These students met the grade-point-average (GPA) requirements but they missed on the English test by just a few points. We found out they would stay in their home countries and take the test over and over and over again,” says Leah Sanford, manager of International Programs and Services at the Okanagan campus. “We knew there had to be a better way to introduce these students to the university.” Last September, UBC offered a new English Foundation Program (EFP) as a pilot—17 students registered, most of them international. The students thrived. This September, more than 100 registered in the EFP. The EFP is unique, Sanford explains. If students meet the academic requirements for undergraduate degrees in Arts, Science, Applied Science, Management, Fine Arts, or Human Kinetics, they can apply for, and take courses, in that program. So, while they are taking English foundation courses, they also study two academic courses related to their degree. “Quite often, international students would take only English foundation courses and not get involved with other first-year students in their degree program,” Sanford says. “But we invite our students to begin their academic career as early as possible. We want them to succeed, and being a part of a cohort can help with that success.” EFP students remain in their faculty and at the same time are immersed in courses that help develop skills in academic writing, reading, listening, and speaking English. Credit for these courses goes toward their undergraduate degree. Torigoe, who hopes to become a civil engineer, grew up in China and Japan and he likes that he could take academic courses while working on his English skills. “The EFP helped me get accustomed to university life and I learned how to use the library system and how to write a research paper,” he says. “It also helped me get involved in many events and activities.”

Ticketmaster revives ticket booth in Kelowna

Canucks game tickets, Kelowna theatre and entertainment options, and other hot tickets will be available for purchase at a revived Ticketmaster location for Kelowna, opened last week at the Kelowna Visitor Centre, 544 Harvey Ave. “Often, customers would prefer to buy tickets in person and have the ticket stub in their hands rather than buying something online that they have to print off,” explained Chris Lewis, visitor centre sales and services manager. “That’s why it’s great news that Canada’s largest authorized ticketing agent has an official location in Kelowna.” This new Kelowna location joins 250 other official Ticketmaster locations throughout Canada, selling tickets to more than 350,000 events in over 500 venues across the country each year. You can also buy tickets to a range of shows in Kelowna through Ticketmaster, including tickets to the upcoming Craig Ferguson show on Oct.24 at the Kelowna Community Theatre. Other Kelowna events that are selling tickets through Ticketmaster also can be purchased at this location. The Kelowna Visitor Centre is open Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturday, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Carma Project gifts new car to a needy driver Racquel Funnell was on hand along with her two children last week to receive the keys to her new car, provided through The Carma Project. Funnell became the third recipient of a vehicle through the Carma Project initiative. She went through a selection committee process and was selected among several applicants who had expressed a need for a vehicle. “The overwhelming appreciation we received from Racquel when we told her she had been selected by the committee to receive this car really made me as happy as she was,” said Penny Stranaghan, founder The Carma Project with the support of her husband Bruce, who operates Integra Tire and Auto Centre. “To know that we have just helped make the lives of an entire family easier is why we started The Carma Project.” This Kelowna based project has had a number of businesses step up to support this “pay it forward” concept by providing an individual or family with a reliable vehicle. Businesses who have stepped in to make the 2013 Carma Project possible include Integra Tire and Auto Centre in Kelowna, Lordco Auto Parts, Bubbles Car Wash & Detail Kelowna, Okanagan Limousine, Tie the Knot Hair Design, Choices Market, Tweet4Ok Social Media Services, Impact Events and Projects, Okanagan Digital Media, Heaven on Earth Spa, Jason Neumann Century 21, RauDZ Regional Table, Crema Communications, make-up artist Jenny Mckinny, Kelowna InstaPrint, Big Brothers Big Sisters Okanagan and Maxum Auto. “It’s a lot of work, being a single mom and we began a journey of recovery for myself and my children about five years ago but it’s totally worth it,” said Funnell. “I’m driving a borrowed car right now, we are fortunate but wake up everyday wondering what if we will make it to where we need to go today because some days the car just doesn’t start.” The next Carma Project donated vehicle will be available in early 2013. Interested individuals can download the application form at www.thecarmaproject.com/apply. If you would like to make a donation to help off-set costs for restoring the next vehicle for the Carma Project, drop off donations to Integra Tire and Auto Centre, 2160 Enterprise Way, Kelowna.

Special celebration for Okanagan College

n 1963, it was a different world. Beatlemania first swept across North America. Martin Luther King delivered his “I have a dream” speech in Washington, DC. The lava lamp was invented. And in Kelowna, then premier W.A.C. Bennett opened the $1.7-million B.C. Vocational School in Kelowna. This marked the beginning of Okanagan College. Fifty years later, Okanagan College has graduated more than 53,000 students. Today, it offers post-secondary education at four campuses: Penticton, Vernon, Salmon Arm, and the original campus in Kelowna. It’s the largest college in B.C. outside the Lower Mainland, and one of the largest trades training institutions in the province. From the students and staff to

the jobs the college has created, it’s transformed a lot of lives—so it was an honour to be invited to take part in the recent 50th anniversary celebrations at the Kelowna campus. And just as it’s become a crucial part of the community, it’s a critical part of our BC Jobs Plan and Skills and Training Plan. Our future prosperity hinges on developing a workforce equipped for an increasingly skill-based world economy. And make no mistake, those highly-skilled jobs are coming. As we pursue the transformational opportunity of LNG, the impact on our economy will be incredible. It will create 100,000

jobs across B.C. That’s our opportunity, and that’s our challenge. To make sure British Columbians are first Christy in line for those Clark jobs, we have to make sure they’re prepared. Consider some of the numbers: 21,600 jobs directly involved in the building of LNG export facilities and associated pipelines; 41,900 jobs in industries that supply goods and services during construction; 2,400 permanent jobs to operate and maintain the plants and pipelines on an ongoing basis; 61,700 jobs are required to support LNG operations including workers required to drill, produce, process and transport the natural gas to

export facilities. And it’s worth pointing out, that’s just LNG. Of the one million job openings projected in B.C. by 2020, 43 per cent will need trades and technical training. With a view to preparing British Columbians for those opportunities, we launched the Skills and Training Plan in September 2012. It promotes opportunities in trades, and invests in and improves training facilities and equipment in institutions like Okanagan College. That’s why the provincial government has invested more than $69 million since 2005 to expand and upgrade the college’s facilities.

our entrepreneurs society to repeat the concept for 2013. This year’s event is titled UnLeashing Ideas —Building the Entrepreneurship Culture in the Okanagan. It will begin Thursday evening, Nov. 21, with a networking showcase of regional entrepreneurship resources. There will be appies and refreshments with ample time to network and become oriented with the who’s who in the valley-wide venture community. Eleven distinguished speakers, entrepreneurs in their own right, will offer an abundance of information and value to everyone’s attendance.

The keynote speaker will be former world champion martial arts Dan Zaleski, who will inspire and motivate everyone with his personal story of commitment and determination toward his journey of innovation.

Now, I will try to contain myself for this next column segment as it is both exciting and joyful for me. Beginning Oct.28, through the co-operation of Shaw Broadcasting for the Okanagan region, we will begin production of The Fire Within, a premier weekly entrepre-

neurship television program featuring a glimpse into the entrepreneurial journey of our own Okanagan Valley entrepreneurial leaders, from the root of their new venture idea, to the road they travelled to the launch and lastly, where the entrepreneurs are in today’s self-employment world. Our show offers venture guidance to personal entrepreneurial leadership growth, resources to networking, inspirational stories and some frank “shoot from the hip” advice. The Fire Within is the entrepreneurial one-stop entertainment resource for igniting the fire burning brightly within all those with the desire and

passion to further their entrepreneurial dream machine.

That includes $28 million to modernize the trades training facility, $23 million to expand the centre of learning here at the Kelowna campus, funding to help build the Jim Pattison Centre of Excellence at the Penticton campus, and expand the trades facility at the

Salmon Arm campus. For Okanagan College, the next 50 years promise to be just as bright. Future plans include the expansion and renovation of the trades training facilities at the Kelowna campus. A $33-million investment will make sure that future welders, heavy-duty mechanics, electricians,

plumbers and other skilled workers get the training they need. The expansion is expected to be complete in the spring of 2016. For 50 years, Okanagan College has helped define a region, and transformed thousands of lives. Here’s to another 50. Christy Clark is the MLA for Westside-Kelowna.

Water-wise landscape enhances Kelowna industrial area

he winner of the Best Commercial Landscape in the 2013 Okanagan Xeriscape Garden Contest was Cellar-tek. In 2011 the owners of Cellar-tek approached Lisa Masini, of Waterwise Landscape Design. They asked Masini to design an environmentally friendly landscape that reflected their leadership in sustainable practices as well as an attractive front to their business that would welcome customers while improving the look of the neighbourhood on a largely concrete-ridden commercial street. The design addressed the need to keep dogs and people out of the beds, prevent graffiti on the southern wall, and create an exciting approach to the main doors of Cellar-tek.

GARDENING WITH NATURE

Gwen Steele lar railings accentuating two large west facing beds and the south facing bed beside the entrance. Black metal lattices along the south wall provide a structure for Clematis ligusticifolia, a fast-growing native white clematis. To create simplicity, a limited number of plant species were used. An innovative combination of native and non-native plants provides four season interest. All the plant species chosen are drought tolerant, needing only up to maximum of seven inches of supplemental watering per year, once established. Brown-eyed susans (Gaillardia aristata)

bloom profusely from June to frost. They have naturalized to fill in. Rabbitbrush (Chrysothamnus nauseosus) has vibrant silver foliage similar to lavender. Its yellow bloom is a highlight in August and September. Sagebrush (Artemesia tridentata) shrub keeps its attractive silver foliage year round. Heuchera cylindrica is an evergreen mound with stalks of white flowers in spring. All of these Okanagan native plants are available from local native plant nurseries. A specimen of Ravenna grass (Erianthus ravennae) forms a focal point on each side of the entrance. These provide winter interest, so are not cut back until spring. Dwarf Mugo pines provide a touch of evergreen. Royal Burgundy barberry shrubs provide a burgundy foliage contrast. Crocus and fritillaria

bulbs bloom in spring. The landscape was designed with drought-tolerant and low-water plants to avoid the need for an irrigation system. Plants were hand-watered the first year to become established. A small amount of supplemental hand watering was needed in 2012 and less in 2013 for the barberry shrubs, ravenna grass, and clematis. Moisture is conserved by a two inch depth of fluffy cherry bark mulch applied in 2011, with a top-up of two inches of fir mulch in 2013. Annual maintenance required for this landscape is approximately 15 hours which includes watering, weeding, cutting back perennials, weekly garbage pick-up, and spring and fall clean up.

SENIORS Fitness myths about seniors “We do not stop exercising because we grow old—we grow old because we stop exercising.” —Dr. Kenneth Coope

erhaps you’ve heard negative reports about why seniors shouldn’t exercise at their age. Don’t believe that kind of talk—just because you are older doesn’t mean it’s time to resign yourself to a rocking chair. Fitness is important for everyone, but even more so as we age. As a senior, you can improve the quality of your life with exercise and reduce the aging process. Staying physically active and exercising regularly can help prevent,

FITNESS FOR SENIORS

Bobbi Kittle diminish, or delay the onset of many diseases and disabilities, including cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, obesity, arthritis, fibromyalgia, and osteoporosis. Don’t fall prey to some exercise myths you may have heard. Let’s shed some truth on these myths and get active. Here are some of the more common exercise and diet myths for seniors, courtesy of the website Revera.com Myth #1: I’m too old

to start exercising. This is simply not true. You can start a fitness routine at any age. Exercise can’t reverse aging, but it can make you feel stronger and healthier. Myth #2: Exercise is too difficult and I may break bones. Most fractures in the elderly are due to falls not exercise-related. Some of the best exercises you can do are those to strengthen the core and exercises to improve your balance. By improving your balance, strengthening your muscles and joints, and limiting the loss of muscles and bone mass, exercise reduces your risk of falling. Cardiovascular exercise doesn’t have to be high impact. There are

many options for low impact exercise including walking, cycling, swimming, water aerobics, low impact aerobic fitness classes for seniors. Myth #3: Exercising will cause a heart attack. Exercise can actually reduce your risk of heart disease, but it’s definitely important to check with your doctor before beginning any exercise program if you have concerns. Make sure to follow your doctor’s recommendations and you are more likely to succeed. Myth #4: I weigh too much to exercise. For many overweight individuals just the thought of exercise might seem challenging. However, being extremely overweight is one of the best reasons to exercise. As we age our metabolism slows down so you may have put on extra weight that makes it seem more difficult to get up and get active. If you exercise you can actually increase that slowing metabolism and start shedding those extra and unwanted pounds. Myth #5: I will get hurt if I lift weights. Strength training is the best way to increase your metabolism, strengthen your bones and build muscle. You can start with body weight exercises or dumbbells weighing as little as two pounds each and do simple exercises that will result in toned muscles and strengthened bones. Put aside your fears, check with your doctor on limitations and recommendations and get moving—if you don’t move it, you will lose it!

A new mural depicting the Canadian Navy and Air Force will be officially unveiled by the Okanagan Military Museum on the wall of Memorial Arena. The museum is housed inside the arena.

▼ MILITARY MUSEUM

New mural reflects on Canadian Navy, Air Force The Okanagan Military Museum is dedicated to the preservation of the military history of the Okanagan Valley. Located inside the Kelowna Memorial Arena, the military museum contains exhibits honouring the service of Canadian Army, Navy and Air Force personnel over the past century. From the Boer War to Afghanistan, the Okanagan has sent service men and women into conflict. On the wall of the Memorial Arena is the Military Museum mural as well as the British Columbia Dragoons mural added during their centennial in 2011. The naval and air force veterans fundraised to add a mural depicting the Royal Canadian Navy and Royal Canadian Air Force. After two years of fundraising, searching for artists and construction of the mural, it has been mounted in conjunction with the museum and BCD murals. It is a collage of historic photos to tell the story of the RCN since 1910 and of the RCAF since 1924. It includes photos of the HMCS Niobe (one of the first two ships in the Navy), the HMCS Weyburn, an iconic corvette doing convoy duty during the Second World War, and the HMCS Okanagan submarine. The Air Force photos include the

WW2 Lancaster and Spitfire as well as the current CF-18. Modern sailors and air personnel photos stand side-by-side with photos of their predecessors in WW2. The RCN/RCAF mural differs from the other two mounted on the Memorial Arena. The Military Museum and BCD murals are paintings done by local artists on plywood. The new mural consists of digitized photos which have been printed on vinyl, mounted on sturdy aluminum sheets, and laminated with a protectant to limit fading and deterioration over a long period of time. It is expected to far outlast the wooden murals. At a ceremony to be held today at 2 p.m. at the Military Museum, the new RCN/RCAF mural will be dedicated to the service of Okanagan residents who served in the Navy and Air Force. The organizations involved in creating this mural are: • The Okanagan Military Museum Society. • The Kelowna Naval Veterans Association and 883 (Kelowna) Wing, Royal Canadian Air Force Association. • The Royal Canadian Legion • The Kelowna Museums Society.

Heat women into playoffs; narrow miss for men While the UBC Okanagan women’s soccer team makes plans for the 2013 PACWEST postseason next weekend, the Heat men are left wondering what might have been. The UBCO men finished in a fourth-place tie (6-5-3) with Vancouver Island University, but the Mariners earned the final conference berth thanks to winning the head-to-head season series between the clubs. Heading into the weekend tied with VIU, the Heat lost 2-0 to Langara on Saturday, then bounced back to defeat Quest 5-2 on Sunday, as Enzo Paal scored three times. But it wasn’t enough as the Mariners also went 1-1, losing on Saturday to Kwantlen, then defeating Douglas 4-0 Sunday to officially clinch fourth spot ahead of UBCO. “It sucks,” said Heat head coach Dante Zanatta “Right now, it’s very disappointing…we should have been in this week-

end (having) clinched a playoff spot and not being worried about it.” While missing out on the playoffs in their last season of PACWEST is disappointing, Zanatta said his program’s future is bright heading into Canada West competition in 2014. The Heat loses only fifth-year fullback Kennedy Hindley, with the core of this year’s team all expected to return next fall. “When we came up this was a fiveyear plan, and this is year three,” Zanatta continued. “You’re seeing now the fruit is starting to show.”

HEAT WOMEN IN SEMIFINAL

Last year’s silver medalists, the UBC Okanagan women look for a return to the podium this weekend at the PACWEST championship in Nanaimo. On Saturday, Claire Paterson’s crew will take on the Quest Kermodes in the semifinals. The winner will advance to Sun-

day’s finale against the winner of the Thompson Rivers vs Langara semifinal. “Overall we’re really excited to see what we can do,” said fullback Ashley Albores. “This provincials is our last chance in this league to prove why we deserve to go up (to Canada West.) We need to make a statement, for everybody and for ourselves.” The Heat closed out the regular season in third spot in PACWEST with a 7-3-4 record, three points back of Quest. On Saturday, UBCO shutout Langara 3-0 as Christine Tallon posted her first of two shutouts over the weekend. In a playoff preview on Sunday at Nonis Field, the Heat and Quest played to a 0-0 draw. “The group is great, we’re heading into the provincials with our heads held high,” said Heat forward Lana Finley, “we know what we need to do.” Sunday was the final

East-leading Calgary Hitmen visit Prospera Tuesday Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER

After a mediocre start to the 2013-14 season, the Calgary Hitmen are establishing themselves as a formidable presence in the WHL’s Eastern Conference. The Kelowna Rockets have been no less impressive out west, piling up seven wins and just one

regulation loss in their first 10 games. On Tuesday night, the teams will go head-tohead at Prospera Place in the first of two meetings this season. The Hitmen (8-3-01) have just one shootout loss in their last six games, while the Rockets (7-1-02) own the best winning percentage (.800) in the WHL.

“They’re a very good team, you would have to consider them one of the best in the Eastern Conference,” Rockets head coach Ryan Huska said of Calgary. “They have good depth, they skate well and have good size, and really get their defensemen activated and into the play. It should be an entertaining game.” While the Rockets still

have more than enough bodies to fill the lineup sheet on Tuesday, injuries are beginning to make their presence felt in the team’s locker room. Defenceman Jesse Lees is sidelined two to four weeks with a hand injury, while a broken ankle will keep forward Austin Glover off the ice for the next two to four months. “It does test your

depth, so it’s good that we do have a 24-man roster we can fall back on,” said Huska. “Unfortunately, I think injuries happen even more than they used to because the guys are bigger, stronger and faster and they play with more reckless abandon, you could say. You’re going to go through periods like that, and I think it’s a trend

we’re going to see continue.” Meanwhile, the Rockets won their second in a row on Saturday night, edging the Prince George Cougars 3-2. “It feels like we’re beginning to put more quality 60-minute efforts together,” Huska said of his team’s effort of late. This weekend, the Rockets will travel to Vic-

toria for games Friday and Saturday against the Royals.

Like so many who knew him, Kelowna runner Cindy Rhodes has some fond memories of Larry Nicholas. “He always had a smile,” says Rhodes, the race director of this year’s 30th memorial Larry Nicholas 9k cross country race. “I remember Larry as a young, active and friendly guy. He worked at the Parkinson Recreation Centre and liked to climb the brick walls even then.” Larry Nicholas and his friend, Dick Greenway, both from Kelowna, accompanied by their girlfriends set out to climb

the treacherous Snow Creek Wall in Leavenworth, Washington. Larry and Dick had climbed this particular route the previous spring. They were resting on a ledge, waiting for climbers above them to reach the next pitch. Dick was sitting down. Larry was standing on the corner of the ledge when the rocks crumbled out from beneath his feet. He fell immediately, as did Dick, who was roped to him. Both fell 600 feet and neither survived more than a few minutes. Their then 22-year-

loss get in our head. We just played hard today and deserved the win.” Warriors coach Rylan Ferster said the win was a big bounce-back effort by the team. “I thought we played real hard today, full marks to the guys in the room right now,” said Ferster who added with so many players out with injury the plan was to keep the game simple. “We talked before the game that we just wanted to keep it simple,” said Ferster. “They are a team that has played three games in three days so we just wanted to keep it simple.

Make them work; make them have to play defence.” Things won’t get easier for the Warriors who will lose two more healthy bodies next weekend when forwards Seb Lloyd and David Pope and defenceman Adam Plant head to Calgary for the Canada West selection camp. The camp will determine the Canada West roster for the World Jr. A Challenge Nov. 4 to 10 in Yarmouth, N.S.

old girlfriends were there when they fell. It was May 21, 1983. Larry was a day shy of his 24th birthday, while Dick was 26. “He was athletic and would have been a motivator and inspiration to many,” Larry’s sister Linda says. “He could draw funny cartoons.” Larry was a member of the Kelowna Running Club. In September 1983, Dennis Zahara, a co-worker of Larry’s, organized the first cross country run and a year later the Kelowna Running Club integrated the memorial run in the Interior cross country series. Registration is open for the 30th Larry Nicholas memorial cross country 9k race or the 4k fun run on Nov. 3. Start is 10 a.m. in Mission Creek Park. The entry fee is $ 12.

Among the BCFC’s annual awards winners announced last Thursday were Sun veterans Brennan Van Nistelrooy and Robbie Yochim. Van Nistelrooy, a na-

tive of Lethbridge, was named the conference’s outstanding defensive back. Van Nistelrooy had 24 tackles, three fumble recoveries, a pair of interceptions and two blocked kicks in 2013. Yochim, a fourth-year defensive back out of Rutland, was named the conference’s outstanding special teams player. He had

43 total returns for 759 yards, averaging 17.6 yards per return. Yochim added five solo special teams tackles and 1 assist. Van Nistelrooy and Yochim were also named BCFC all-stars in the defensive secondary, along with Sun teammate, Jack Rush. Yochim added a second all-star selection

Taylor in 1991, among other family members. She is survived by her nieces and nephews and many extended family.

Plans for a memorial gathering are still underway.

WICKSTROM - SHIRLEY IRENE On October 14, 2013 in Kelowna, Shirley Irene Wickstrom passed away with family at her side at the age of 86. Born July 5, 1927 in Clandeboye Manitoba, she was the youngest of six daughters born to Elizabeth McBain and Walter Sutherland. Music was a mainstay in the Sutherland home, served with generous portions of love and laughter. Shirley came to Fort Frances, Ontario in 1947, when she married John R. Stewart. Together they raised their children (Laurie, Sherry, and Wendi) on their farm in Crozier. Shirley was a teacher and the first principal of Alberton Central School. After John’s death in 1974, Shirley married Ken Wickstrom, and their adventures took them to Kelowna, BC. Ken predeceased Shirley in 2008. Shirley was an active participant in her community: a member of the Order of Eastern Star, Beta Sigma Phi Sorority, and choir director at Knox Untied Church, Fort Frances. She shared her passion for music with her children, many school choirs, friends and family. She could always be found at the piano. Shirley is survived by her children, Laurie Stewart (Lorraine), Sherry Moran (Tim), Wendi Stewart (David), step-children Judy Donnelly (David) and Bruce Wickstrom (Betty), fifteen grandchildren,Travis,Keri,Aimee,Samantha, Laurie,Thea,Dawn,Michelle,Barbara,Kendra,Nicole, Adam, Jamie, Brian, Steven, and ten great grandchildren. She will be dearly missed, but she is free at last from the confines of Alzheimer’s disease. A Celebration of Life will be held in Shirley’s honour, at a later date in Fort Frances, at a time when her family can gather together. An announcement will be made prior to the Celebration of her life. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in her memory to the Alzheimer Society of Canada. Condolences may be sent to the family by visiting www.mem.com, clicking on stories and typing in Shirley Wickstrom. Arrangement entrusted with First Memorial Funeral Services, Kelowna. 250-762-2299

CUISINE from Jude’s kitchen simply special Special meals don’t have to be difficult to make. You just have to be a bit organized if you’re short on time and select recipes that are particularly tasty, but not complicated to prepare. For instance, this salmon casserole doesn’t even require a bunch of dishes to get it all ready for the oven. I just assemble everything in the casserole dish I use to cook it in. Brownies too are a very easy sweet to serve following a meal, but make them into a fancier dessert with the addition of a fruit sauce like this raspberry coulis, using the fruit you picked or picked up fresh last summer and froze. We all have occasions to celebrate that don’t need to include a tablefull of guests: a good day at the office or a promotion; a new job or completion of a course; an anniversary or a move; a new friendship or the re-kindling of an old one; or just because. Don’t hesitate to use any excuse to celebrate—and it’s all about food, isn’t it? Foods trigger memories because there are always particular foods that we associate with special occasions. Most couples and families have a favourite food or dish that they make for small celebrations because it’s special to them. There’s a particular dish that my kids always ask for to help them celebrate their birthdays. There are lots of ideas and recipes for such special dinners in my book, Jude’s Kitchen, which is organized by the seasons of the year, around special occasions. It’s available at Mosaic Books in Kelowna, the B.C. Wine Museum or Calona Vineyards wine shop, as well as at Quails’ Gate Estate Winery in West Kelowna.

Salmon Rice Casserole This is an all-in-one meal that contains a good balance of nutrition and flavour in a single dish. It’s quick to make and you could do some preparation ahead of time by grating the carrot and slicing the mushrooms, ready to just assemble after work or when you're ready. Pair this with a special wine like Intrigue Wines 2012 Focus Riesling, a wonderfully fruit-forward white with a hint of citrus. 15 oz. (426 g) salmon 1 egg 10 oz. (283 g) spinach 1 carrot 1 onion 10 mushrooms 1 c. (250 ml) rice 2 c. (500 ml) milk 2 tsp. (10 ml) garam masala salt and pepper to taste Pre-heat oven to 350 F. Drain and mash a couple of tins

of salmon in a large casserole dish with a tight-fitting lid, retaining the bones, but crushing them well. Beat an egg and add it to the salmon. Chop the spinach if fresh, or squeeze out the extra juice from thawed spinach, and add. Grate carrot, finely chop the onion and thinly slice the mushrooms and add to the salmon mix. Add the raw rice to the salmon mixture with the milk and seasonings and thoroughly combine everything. Cover with a snug lid and bake in the oven for about an hour. This can also be cooked in the microwave oven in a microwavesafe casserole dish on medium power for about 25 minutes, if white rice is used. Make sure you use a large enough dish that four inches or so of head room remains. Serves 4-6.

Double Fudgie Brownies

JUDIE STEEVES / CAPITAL NEWS

This recipe, or one very like it, has come to me from more than one source, but I got it first from my Mom. It’s simple and very chocolatey, and it can be fancied up easily by drizzling a square with a little Raspberry Coulis. 2 tbsp. (30 ml) cocoa 3/4 c. (175 ml) dark brown sugar 1/2 c. (125 ml) butter 2 eggs 1/2 c. (125 ml) flour 1/4 tsp. (1 ml) salt

1/2 tsp. (2 ml) vanilla 1/2 c. (125 ml) chocolate chips

Pre-heat oven to 325F. Combine cocoa and dark brown sugar. Melt butter and add, along with two large eggs, slightly beaten. Whisk flour and salt together, then mix into batter with vanilla. (Add walnuts or pecans instead of chocolate chips if desired.) Pour into greased 8x8x2-inch pan. Bake for 25 minutes, cool and cut into squares.

Raspberry Coulis

This is full of fresh raspberry flavour, but without those pesky seeds. Serve it over a square of Double Fudgie Brownies for a quick and simple dessert, with a sprig of fresh mint to garnish, or it can be frozen, ready to serve over a scoop of ice cream or whatever. 2 c. (500 ml) raspberries 1 tbsp. (15 ml) brown sugar 1 tsp. (5 ml) fresh lemon juice 2 tbsp. (30 ml) cornstarch

1 oz. (30 ml) vodka

Squash raspberries and push through a fine sieve or food mill until you have two cups of fruit. Discard the seeds. Pour puree into a pot and dissolve brown sugar, lemon juice and cornstarch in the juice. Bring the mixture to bubbling over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens slightly and clears. Remove from heat and cool completely. Whisk in the vodka just before serving. Refrigerate until ready to use.

But the West Kelowna Residents Association knows there are many more people than that who want to see change. Last month, the WKRA asked residents to help identify gaps and problems with existing health care services on the Westside. The residents association has agreed to gather the feedback on behalf of Joanne Konnert, the consultant hired by the District of West Kelowna to prepare a report on the proposed Westside health facility. “I think Ms. Konnert is probably expecting a larger number,” said WKRA director Ron Green. “At the last public meeting we had on the subject, we had 245 people there.” Green said the responses so far have given

▼ WESTSIDE

The West Kelowna teenager currently on trial for murder will finally tell her version of the events that left one of her peers dead, and turned a quiet Peachland street into a chaotic crime scene. The 18-year-old, whose name is under a publication ban, is alleged to have stabbed Ashlee Hyatt, 16, in her neck after an argument at a June 2, 2010, party. It’s a story that Crown counsel Murray Kaay assembled a number of witnesses to tell from varying angles, but defence lawyer Ingrid Friesen pointed out Friday that none of those viewpoints added up to a complete picture. “You as a jury will be the first to hear her side of the story—she wants very much to tell it,” Friesen told a B.C. Supreme Court jury Friday. “She’s been waiting two years to tell it.” The accused, who defence described as a “new girl trying to fit in at a new school,” has seen her point of view be absent in the last two weeks of trial, as even RCMP officers who dealt with the investigation failed to offer her perspective on what happened that night. What the jury has learned from teen witnesses who were there, however, is that the accused kissed a boy, while her boyfriend was nearby. This apparently upset Hyatt and the two started exchanging verbal barbs, which escalated to further pushing on the street, and eventually Hyatt was fatally wounded. Continuing on with the altercation, however, was the teenage host of the party. The defence has already suggested she was the one who brought the knife to the fight between the accused and Hyatt, and Friday two witnesses took the witness stand to highlight the teenage host’s behaviour in the aftermath and leading up to the fatal altercation. They also called upon George Young, who lives adjacent to the party house, to give testimony. Young testified he was brought into the fray when he heard a teenage boy in the street talking into his cellphone, saying, “It’s going down, it’s going down, it’s happening now.”

Bugged by bears Judie Steeves STAFF REPORTER

he day’s last light was fading and the first flakes of snow were falling outside the window, when a large black bear came ambling down the slope into the flower bed. There he began vigorously digging a hole, tossing plants aside as he went. A loud rap on the window sent him scurrying through the trees to the road, but the damage had been done in the garden. What if someone had come around the corner of the house and surprised that big animal? Others tell of watching as a large black bear ambled up their residential street, systematically exploring every driveway for garbage bins left out or other treats to eat, knocking over bins and laying down in the mess of trash in the road, while chewing on whatever was available.
