Radio company wants to make waves B A R RY CO U LT E R

The radio picture in the East Kootenay could fundamentally change in the near future, as two companies await word on their applications to open a new radio station in Cranbrook.

Both Clear Sky Radio, based out of Lethbridge, and Newcap, based out of Nova Scotia, have applied to operate a commercial FM radio station in Cranbrook. Clear Sky Radio Inc., an independent broadcasting company, operates stations in Lethbridge (CJOC-FM) and Medicine Hat (CJCY-FM). Newcap holds 88 broadcasting licenses in Canada.

“We are excited to have the opportunity to potentially serve Cranbrook, Kimberley and the entire East Kootenay region with a new FM radio station,” Clear Sky President Paul Larsen said. “Our company knows the area extremely well and we’ve heard loud and clear from local citizens their desire for an additional radio service.

“If we are fortunate enough to win this licence, we will bring to town a radio station with the highest professional standards that local citizens will be proud to associate with.”

The Nature Park Society is volunteer driven, and as their latest newsletter says “it is rather remarkable that we have been able to plan, maintain, enhance and promote the largest municipal park in BC (we think) without any paid staff for over two decades.”

There are numerous volunteer opportu-

nities for outdoors enthusiasts available, including: Horse Barn Valley Committee - Help plan and implement projects in the Horse Barn Valley Interpretive Forest. Current projects include trail improvements and the creation of interpretive panels that will educate visitors about the history and ecology of the area.

Pacific Coastal Airlines runs inaugural flight from Cranbrook to Kelowna ARNE PE TRYSHEN Townsman Staff

On Monday, Nov. 18, Pacific Coastal kicked off its new Cranbrook to Kelowna flight route.

The company invited local politicians, travel agents and media to take part in the inaugural flight. As a member of the latter group, I was invited to take the flight as well.

Before the flight everyone gathered around in the foyer of the Canadian Rockies International Airport. The Sookenai Singers played a ceremonial drum prior to a speech by Spencer Smith, Vice President of Pacific Coastal. There was also an inaugural cake with an image of a Pacific Coastal plane on it.

Then, we all headed through security and onto the plane — a Beechcraft 1900c. The plane fits 19 passengers and the pilot and co-pilot. It’s one of two types of airline Pacific Coastal flies from Cranbrook to Vancouver — the other is a Saab 340, which seats 30 passengers. For me, at six feet four inches tall, the flight cabin is not something I can stand up in, but since the flight is only between 30 and 45 minutes depending on the headwind, there really isn’t any need to walk around the cabin.

Kevin Boothroyd, Director of Sales and Marketing for the airline, said that the Cranbrook-Kelowna route helps to bring the two cities closer together. The flight also made sense as there was enough of a layover time between the Cranbrook to Vancouver flights to fly to Kelowna and back. So Pacific Coastal didn’t even have to change the flight schedules.

In Kelowna the plane was greeted by two airport fire trucks, which ceremoniously welcomed the flight to the airport with an arc of water sprayed from each side by the top-mounted water cannons.

There was a red carpet set up on the tarmac, and there we were met by Minister Steve Thomson, Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, Kelowna Mayor Walter Gray and Sam Samadar, Kelowna’s airport manager, as well as a host of media camera crews, local representatives and airport staff.

Kaytee Wheaton, Director of Sales for the Kootenay Ice, exchanged jerseys with Dr. Gavin Hamilton from the Kelowna Rockets.

On both the flight there and return, I sat in the furthest seat forward, which afforded me a view into the cockpit and out of the plane’s windshield. The approach to the flashing lights of the Cranbrook runway in the dark, cloudy, rainy night was a stunning sight. Both landings were quite smooth despite the weather.

The flight is a nice quick way for those travelling to and from Kelowna to save themselves driving time, whether a university student, business person or simply a vacationer.

Dental clinic given grand opening

Salvation Army cuts the ribbon on its free, volunteer-run dental clinic in Cranbrook Sally MacDonald Townsman Staff

A gathering at the Cranbrook Salvation Army centre on Friday, Nov. 15 celebrated the grand opening of the Mouth Minders free dental clinic.

The clinic, which began seeing patients last month, is the first dental clinic owned by the Salvation Army in Canada.

Captain Kirk Green told the gathered crowd that the idea came from Interior Health community dental hygienist Nancy Savarie, who approached Green about opening a clinic in the yet-to-be-funded homeless shelter. Instead, Green decided to start the clinic right away in the existing facility.

“The Salvation Army said it had been tried before in numerous places and it never works,” said Cpt. Green.

“But it sailed through the approval process without question, complaint or concern. We sent it, they stamped it, and Cranbrook has the first ever Salvation Army owned and operated dental clinic in the country.”

Dentist Astarte soon came on board to volunteer her time seeing patients. She was grateful for the role the Salvation Army plays in the clinic.

“They have taken on the role of housing and offering administration skills for the clinic so that dental personnel can just come in and do the dentistry,” she said.

Since the clinic opened last month, it has operated for a total of 16 hours over four sessions. In that time, 24 patients have been treated, with another 36 on the waiting list.

“This effort by the Salvation Army and local dentists really enriches the community we live in,” said Kootenay East MLA Bill Bennett at the grand opening. “I am here to offer my continuing support for the Salvation Army for this project and their bigger project,” he added, referring to the proposal for a homeless

shelter facility that awaits provincial funding.

The Mouth Minders dental clinic was funded $16,500 from Columbia Basin Trust for start-up cost. Pacific Blue Cross provided a $5,000 donation. Retiring Cranbrook dentist Dr. Tim Comishin donated all of his dental equipment. Patterson Dental assisted with turning a former Sunday School room at the Salvation Army into the clinic. A1 Countertops provided goods free of charge.

“This is a major step forward to help people in Cranbrook who really need it,” said Cranbrook

Mayor Wayne Stetski.

The B.C. Government Employees Union donated $1,200 to the clinic on Friday, presented by Nancy Savarie who first approached the Salvation Army about opening a free clinic.

Another two dentists are preparing to join Astarte at Mount Minders.

Dr. Matthew Choi and Dr. Imre Rokus will also volunteer their time to operate the clinic on longer hours.

People who think they might benefit from the clinic’s services can call the Salvation Army at 250-426-3612.

While it looks like early winter may be upon us, some of the trees are still tightly hanging onto some of their leaves, I suppose trying to prolong the lovely fall weather we enjoyed this year. And here I had been hoping to have the last of the dead leaves raked up and bagged by now! I guess I will just have to finish the job in the spring.

The birds have been busy picking off the berries from the Cotoneaster bushes and the Virginia Creeper. It seems however, that most of the berries are being left to ferment on the branches, to be scooped up in December or January by the flocks of Cedar Waxwings.

We had a good turnout at our November meeting and everyone came well-supplied with a variety of evergreen branches to share.

We had two kinds of pine, two kinds of juniper, cedar, spruce, Oregon Grape Holly, Bearberry, wild rose branches with rose hips, tall dried grass stalks as well as a good selection of small cones, artificial berries, flowers and branches.

Everyone seemed to be in a very creative mood, and some wonderful centerpieces, wreaths, and small mugsize arrangements were being displayed by the

One of the centerpieces created at the Garden Club’s recent meeting.

end of the evening.

Judging by the noise level, everyone was having a great time!

In December, we won’t be having a formal meeting, but instead will be holding our annual Christmas potluck social, the second of two social happenings in our Garden Club year.

Then, in January, we will be back at the Selkirk High School Library for the rest of our winter sessions.

The Garden Club meets the second Wednesday of the month, from 7-9 pm in the Selkirk High School Library from October through May. In our winter sessions, we cover various gardening topics selected by the members.

From June through September, we tour two members gardens monthly and enjoy new

gardens and changes to established gardens.

We welcome anyone who would like to learn more about gardening in Kimberley, whether you are new to gardening or new to the Kimberley area.

For more information on our meetings, call Nola at 250-4271948. The Garden Club has web space at http:// www.kootenaygardening.com. There are several pages in the Kimberley Garden Club section listing deer-resistant plants. In addition to hosting pages for the Cranbrook, Kimberley and Trail Garden Clubs, this website is incredibly informative with a wealth of gardening information and techniques.

Happy Gardening.

Christmas Gift Show highlights Kootenay artisans Submit ted by Mike Redfern

Kimberley Arts Council’s annual Christmas Gift Show & Sale opens in the Gallery at Centre 64 on November 26. It provides an opportunity for Kimberley area residents to buy unique gifts hand-crafted by some of the Kootenays’ most talented artists and artisans. As in previous years the artists and artisans have been specially invited to sell their wares at this show because their works are of superior

quality. Many popular artisans from previous years have been invited back including Kimberley fabric artist Virginia Anderson, whose hand-felted mitts were a big seller last year, Helen Robertson, whose ceramics and paintings attracted a lot of attention, and Lori Joe, whose colourful paintings of familiar scenes in Kimberley have proved to be a hot number with both residents and visitors to the community.

Joining them will be Janet Klock of Golden with Découpage Pigs; Carolyn Barzilay of

Fairmont with painted glassware; Greg Dahl of Calgary, wood crafts; Kara Clarke of Kimberley, jewellery; Christine Warren, Kimberley, jewellery; Marianne Rennick, Kimberley, paintings and cards; Darlene Purnell, Cranbrook, fabric art, Nicole Yanota, Coleman, Alberta, paintings, prints, and cards; and Sandy Kunze of Wynndel, ceramic art.

So, if you are looking for a unique gift for someone who appreciates fine craftwork this Christmas, this show & sale offers you a wide spectrum of

fine art and crafts and is probably the place you want to shop. All items are priced to sell.

The public is invited to attend the opening reception for the Christmas Gift Show Saturday, November 30, from 2 to 4 p.m. The show & sale will continue at Centre 64 until December 22 each Tuesday through Saturday from 1 to 5 p.m. For more information call Christine at 250-427-4919.

Nature Park Society seeks volunteers From Page 1 Help look after this beautiful area that encompasses Dipper Lake, Tora Bora and the old growth cedar groves. Contact Struan Robertson at struan.r@ shaw.ca Firewood Salvage Program - A program to help local residents gather some of their winter fuel while cleaning up blowdown along the main roads in the Park has been a great success. More volunteers are needed to help make this initiative sustainable over the long term. Contact Dave Chorneyko at davidchorneyko@gmail. com .

Eimer’s Lake Planning Committee - The Nature Park Management Plan identifies Eimer’s Lake as a spe-

cial area that needs a plan of its own. Recent wet years have resulted in some flooding of the loop trail and some concerns have been raised about the steep connector trail from the lake to the ridge.

The NPS would like to form a committee to discuss the Eimer’s Lake area, identify its values and assets and create a plan for recreation, education and conservation in the area. If you would like to help out, contact Kent Goodwin at jkgoodwin@shaw.ca.

Campground Interpretive Walks - A member of the Natural History Committee would like to organize some guided walks next summer from the Campground into the Nature Park. The walks

would be advertised to campers and give them an introduction to the Park and share some facts about the natural and human history of the area. Training in park interpretation would be provided and both leaders and helpers would be needed. If you are interested in helping out with this project contact Kent Goodwin at jkgoodwin@shaw.ca.

Trail Renovation Committee - The KNPS has been working to identify and fix sections of trail in the Park that aren’t standing up to increased use. There are quite a number of these areas and the fixes for them range from some simple re-sloping of the existing trail to building whole new sections of

Radio companies have EK interest From Page 1 Clear Sky has proposed a main signal at 107.5 FM to serve Cranbrook and Kimberley, and is also proposing local repeaters of the station at 107.9 FM in Fernie, 107.1 FM in Sparwood/Elkford and 107.7 FM in Invermere to rebroadcast programming from the Cranbrook station.

Newcap has proposed to add an FM transmitter in Fernie to rebroadcast Cranbrook programming.

Larsen said Clear Sky identified Cranbrook and the East Kootenay region as an ideal regional expansion market several years ago and applied for the station in September, 2011.

The CRTC which regulates Canadian broadcasting, issued a call for applications on June 21, 2013.

Larsen said the application is currently in the ‘Public Comment’ phase of the process which closes 3 p.m., local time, on Friday, November 29.

“There will be a Public Hearing in Vancouver the week of January 27, 2014, and we should have a decision from the CRTC by the end of May, 2014.”

Clear Sky has a website up and running that details the application, allows the public to submit comments and support and even to listen live to a sample of the music the station would play. The website

is http://summit107.com.

Larsen said if the application is successful, Clear Sky will open a local office/studio and employ at least 12 new local jobs.

Other details about Clear Sky and Summit107: • Adult Contemporary/Pop will be the music format.

• 5.5 hours of news content weekly is proposed, with newscasts 6 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday to Friday, and 7 a.m. to Noon on weekends.

• Clear Sky is proposing to implement a Public Warning system for the region “whereby authorized federal and provincial agencies could take over our airwaves with emergency messages in the rare

event a natural disaster has an immediate threat on the communities.”

• Clear Sky would invest $210,000 in cash to develop Canadian talent. “Much of these funds will be spent locally with support to organizations such as the East Kootenay Performing Arts Festival, the Symphony of the Kootenays, the local School District to purchase music instruments and more.”

As of press time, representatives of Newcap were not available for comment.

The current radio stations, The Drive and B-104 are owned and operated by The Jim Pattison Broadcast Group.

times what a worker on minimum wage would earn working full time in a year.

Putting Switzerland’s proposal aside, what can Canada do about wage inequality? Many say that if CEOs were being paid more than they are worth, shareholders and the directors of the board wouldn’t stand for it.

But if the governance of one company lowered its CEO’s salary, they would simply find it impossible to fill the position. It would need to be an equal drop in all of the country’s top-paying positions.

Taxation, of course, goes a long way to remediate the inequality across the board.

Researchers at the Ottawa-based Centre for the Study of Living Standards found that between 1981 and 2010, before-tax income rose 19.4 per cent. But government taxation and benefits meant that income inequality rose 13.5 per cent during that period. That means that income inequality was 44 per cent less severe than it would have been had government not intervened.

This all goes to indicate that a salary cap for CEOs is a pretty good idea (thanks very much, Switzerland). Yet no North American government would try it, because it would be hugely unpopular among the people who fund political campaigns. And there’s the rub.

There seems to be no way around it.

And that’s very grim.

Kootenay Ice forward Tim Bozon advances into enemy territory while Everett Silvertips defenceman Ben Betker follows the play during WHL action at Western Financial Place on Tuesday evening.

Betker leads Silvertips past Ice Local defenceman quarterbacks Everett to a 3-2 win over Kootenay in hometown debut TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

Ben Betker made sure his hometown debut against the Kootenay Ice on Tuesday night was a memorable one.

Less than a minute into the game, the Everett Silvertips defenceman threw the puck on net, which was batted out of midair by teammate Dawson Leedahl for a early lead.

“Unless I scored, no, I couldn’t have scripted that one any better,” laughed Betker.

Betker, a Cranbrook native, picked up another assist later in the game as Everett built on their lead and edged out a 3-2 victory.

Joshua Winquist and Kohl Bauml also scored for Everett, while Austin Vetterl and Luke Philp responded for the Ice. Wyatt Hoflin made 19 saves for the Ice, while Austin Lotz turned away 31 shots for the win.

On Kootenay’s part, it was a winnable game that slipped out of their fingers, as they outshot Everett 33-22. However, Lotz was the difference maker for the ‘Tips, as the Ice didn’t put enough pressure on him.

“The two goals we scored, we got guys going to the net hard,” said Ice forward Zach McPhee. “…That’s what we had to do for 60 minutes and we didn’t tonight.”

For McPhee and Ryan Chynoweth, it was a meeting that held significant meaning, going up against a former team.

“It’s always good to go up against a former team, but we didn’t get the W and that’s the part that we should’ve had tonight,” added McPhee.

After Leedahl’s opening goal, Koote-

nay failed to capitalize on an early powerplay, but Austin Vetterl eventually knotted it up, tucking in the puck at the side of the net off a rebound from the point.

With Kootenay on the penalty kill, Josh Winquist threaded through the defence and headed in on Hoflin all alone, but lost control of the puck. The play headed back up the ice and Austin Lotz went out of his crease to play the puck, but scrambled and had to make a diving save after a turnover in Everett’s zone.

It took only 12 seconds for the Silvertips to strike in the second period, as Winquist made it 2-1, with Betker picking up his second apple of the night.

“Those kinds of things, especially at home, just can’t happen,” said McPhee, regarding Everett’s two quick goals.

Hubic ran over Michael Zipp at the Everett blue line and Leedahl stepped up for a spirited scrap. Leedahl earned some additional penalty minutes for an instigator and 10 minute misconduct.

Late in the middle frame, Philp took a weak goaltender interference penalty after being shoved into Lotz, and the Silvertips capitalized when Bauml weaved into the slot and roofed a shot past Hoflin.

Heading into the latter half of the third period, Reinhart hit a streaking Philp in the corner with a pass, who cut in front of the net and stuffed the puck past Lotz to make it a one-goal game.

Kootenay pulled Hoflin for a sixth attacker but couldn’t find the equalizer in a confusing finish. In Everett territory, the Silvertips were singled out for a delayed penalty, but the puck slipped across the blue line, putting Kootenay offside. Neither side wanted to touch the puck as the

seconds ticked down.

A Kootenay stick finally made contact a few seconds before the buzzer went, and the officials called the game, before reversing the decision for a face-off in Everett’s zone for two seconds.

Despite a quick trigger from Rinat Valiev, who put a shot on net, Bauml made the block just before the buzzer ended the contest for good.

“We got outplayed for, I’d say, three quarters of the game,” said McPhee. “We didn’t start well and it kind of carried on throughout the second and third period.

It wasn’t an overall great effort tonight.”

Kootenay was stymied on all four powerplay chances, while the ‘Tips notched a goal in three opportunities with the man-advantage.

“Our goal was to get pucks to the net quick,” said McPhee. “They have a good penalty kill and we’re just trying to get traffic to their goalie and get pucks there quick, but we didn’t get full possession like we should’ve off the bat, and just a lack of effort on our part for some of the powerplays we had.

“We had a couple good chances there, but we need to capitalize.”

The loss drops Kootenay down to eighth in the Eastern Conference, tied up at 26 points with the Regina Pats and the Brandon Wheat Kings, however, both have a game in hand against the Ice. It’s a quick turnaround for Kootenay, as they face the Rebels on Wednesday evening in Red Deer. The team was planning on hitting the road right after the tilt against Everett, but road conditions may force them to make the trip early Wednesday.

The irrepressible Cristiano Ronaldo scored a dazzling hat trick as Portugal qualified for the 2014 World Cup finals at the expense of Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s Sweden on Tuesday, while France advanced by conjuring a remarkable turnaround against Ukraine.

There was disappointment for Iceland, however, after the Nordic country failed in its bid to become the least populous nation to reach football’s biggest stage after losing to Croatia on a thrilling final night of European qualification.

Ronaldo came out on top in his personal duel with fellow superstar Ibrahimovic, whose brace in Stockholm was upstaged by the Real Madrid forward’s three brilliant goals in 29 second-half minutes. Portugal won 3-2 for a 4-2 aggregate victory.

France overturned a 2-0 first-leg deficit to Ukraine by winning 3-0 in Paris, with strikes by Mamadou Sakho and Karim Benzema as well as an own goal ensuring Les Bleus qualified for a 10th consecutive major tournament.

Iceland lost 2-0 to 10man Croatia at Zabreb and was eliminated by the same score on aggregate, and Greece was the other European nation to make it to Brazil through the playoffs after drawing 1-1 in Romania to progress 4-2 overall.

The list of African qualifiers was completed with Ghana advancing 7-3 on aggregate over Egypt despite a 2-1 loss in Cairo and Algeria progressing on away goals at the expense of Burkino Faso. Nigeria, Ivory Coast and Cameroon had already won their playoffs.

The final two berths for the 32-team World Cup will be secured on Wednesday, with Uruguay protecting a 5-0 lead over Jordan and Mexico 5-1 up on New Zealand heading into the second legs of their intercontinental playoffs. The draw for the group stage of the 2014

World Cup takes place in Bahia, Brazil, on Dec. 6.

Spain endured a miserable return to the scene of its World Cup triumph in 2010, losing 1-0 to South Africa at FNB Stadium - the venue formerly known as Soccer City - in one of a host of international friendlies.

Rhymes with Orange

By Hillary B. Price

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: When I married my husband, he was divorced with a college- aged daughter. For some reason or other, she did not complete her degree. After college, “Connie” got a job and her own apartment. She became pregnant by a co-worker and had a son. Her dad and I were very disappointed.

Later, Connie moved to another state and had two more children with the same man, but no marriage. Her dad and I supported her and paid her rent whenever she needed it. He advised her on the difficulties and disadvantages of raising children without marriage, but she didn’t listen. She moved back home three years before her father died. Her mother died two years later.

My 57-year-old stepdaughter now lives in her mother’s house. Connie is on dialysis and lives on her disability income. I cook, clean and take her to the doctor. I also help with the bills.

The problem is, I am now 70 and ready to retire and return to my hometown to spend time with my immediate family. My widowed sister has invited me to live with her.

How long am I obligated to support Connie physically and financially? Should I remain here and put my life on hold? -- Had Enough Dear Had Enough: That’s up to you. You are the only parent Connie has, and you’ve stayed relatively close to her through the years. Some parents would sacrifice their personal happiness to care for a child, but others reach the point where they become resentful and feel taken advantage of. Can Connie manage without you? Could you look into available resources in her area for home health care, housekeeping and cooking, and perhaps contribute to the cost? Her children are adults now. It’s time they took over the responsibilities you’ve been handling. Talk to them.

Dear Annie: I have been going to the same hairdresser for the past 12 years. Lately, I have received some pretty bad haircuts, and I’ve noticed that the salon is not as clean as it used to be. There is often hair from previous customers on the chair and the floor.

I feel a strong connection to my hairdresser, and we’ve developed a friendship over the years, but I just can’t take another bad hairdo. I’m thinking of going somewhere else, but I don’t know how to do it. Should I just stop calling for appointments, or must I “break up” with her directly? -- Can Hairy Leave Sally?

Dear Hairy: After 12 years, your hairdresser deserves to know why you aren’t returning.

Is it possible the salon is having financial difficulties? Might she be ill and unable to do the work she used to? Inquire about her well-being, and then tell her what’s been bothering you. Give her the opportunity to improve the situation before telling her you feel it is necessary to take your business elsewhere.

Dear Annie: I read the letter from “DogFree Wedding,” whose relative wants to bring her self-trained, poorly behaved “service” dog to the wedding.

I have had a seeing-eye dog for 30 years.

My dogs are trained at The Seeing Eye in Morristown, N.J. Those of us who use legitimate service dogs, guide dogs, hearing or other therapy dogs are confronting a huge issue: people who train their own dogs and those who get service dog equipment off of the Internet. They dress up their pets as service dogs and bring them into public places.

“Dog-Free” has every right to refuse this person and her ill-behaved dog who was not professionally trained. If this relative has a legitimate disability and needs a dog, she should investigate the proper channels.

Otherwise, she is jeopardizing the rights and privileges for which those of us with legitimately trained dogs have fought for more than 80 years. -- New Germany, Nova Scotia Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

content is news, sports, financial information, entertainment news, and shopping – in that order. Sixtytwo percent of Internet users visit online newspapers for local news, compared with 39 percent for the local TV station Web site and 23 percent for the local radio station site. Not even Yahoo! or AOL’s Digital City can top this.

6. Retailers prefer newspaper sites: Sixty-five percent of retailers report that newspaper sites are efficient in assisting them in meeting marketing needs compared with other sites.

7. High profile: Research.net reports that, among top executives (CEO, CIO, CFO or owner/partner), Internet advertising ranked above over all other media measured for: “Where I prefer to find our about new products,” “Where I prefer to receive information about companies,” and “Where modern, up-to-date brands advertise.” At the same time, these early adopters of technology also skew younger than the traditional newspaper audience.

Forty percent of online newspaper users are aged 18-35.

8. Reinforcement: Seventy-six percent of online newspaper users also read the newspaper in the past seven days, and repetition increases awareness. The Internet Advertising Bureau found that, by increasing the number of online banners from one to two per week, branding results on three key metrics increased 42 percent making online a great, inexpensive way to increase the branding lift of traditional campaigns.

9. Quality: Seventy-five percent of advertisers generally said newspaper Web sites’ advertising was as good or better than other Internet sites.

10. Mix: A variety of recent studies have demonstrated the power of online, when included in a mix with traditional media, to elaborate the brand message.

Newspaper print and online products combined have the highest penetration and most desirable audience of any other local medium.
