NDP takes aim at Multi Material BC recycling “failure”

by Jeff Nagel

The NDP is accusing the provincial government of handing over control of B.C.’s blue box recycling system to Toronto-based multinational executives who will be unaccountable while B.C. businesses

and households pay higher costs.

Opposition small business critic Lana Popham raised the issue of Multi Material BC in the Legislature Monday, calling on the province to change course before the agency’s new system for recycling packaging and

printed paper takes effect May 19.

“If government doesn’t take a step back, B.C.’s recycling system is going to end up in a giant dumpster,” Popham said.

“The control of recycling should never have been outsourced to the large corporate interests

based in Ontario and abroad. This is a profound failure. This program needs to be paused and the entire concept reconsidered.”

Popham’s comments follow the launch earlier this month of a campaign against MMBC by a coalition of business groups, including the newspaper industry, who say they can’t afford to

pay high fees imposed under the new system.

“The Liberal government loves to claim they’re getting rid of red tape,” she said in an interview Monday. “So it’s quite ironic because MMBC is a Godzillasized red tape monster.”

Although MMBC is registered as a society, Popham called it a “dummy corporation”

because two of its three directors are Torontobased senior executives with Loblaws and Unilever, while the third is MMBC managing director Allan Langdon.

The Saanich South NDP MLA said the province should force MMBC to give B.C. stakeholders majority control.

Popham said the

MMBC system will be “dangerously close to monopoly” resulting in less competititon and innovation in recycling.

She also said municipalities have been pressured into signing contracts with inadequate compensation for their costs, the threat of penalties for contamination see Recycling page 5

Getting up and active with PAL Spring is the perfect time to turn over a new leaf and start getting active. Introducing regular physical activity into your life is an important first step towards better health, a happier mindset, and more. The whole family will benefit from increased activity and getting on the road to a healthier lifestyle.

There are so many known benefits to physical activity and an active lifestyle. Among them are a reduced risk of heart disease, premature death and stroke. Being active has also been proven to help improve self-esteem and confidence, help you sleep better, increase your energy and reduce depression, among many other things. Furthermore, it helps maintain functional independence, mobility, and bone health.

For many of us, it can be quite daunting to take that first step towards an active lifestyle. And it can be more challenging to start something new without any help. The good news is residents of BC have access to a free physical activity counselling service called the Physical Activity Line (PAL). Through a phone call or online, qualified exercise professionals are available to provide exercise and physical activity advice and help you develop a customized physical activity plan for every member of the family, from children to older adults.

When it comes to physical activity, more is better. To achieve the health benefits, it is important to try and progress towards the Canadian Physical Activity Guidelines, which recommend at least 60 minutes of physical activity per day for children and youth and 150 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous intensity activity each week for adults. Adults and older adults should also add muscle- and bone-

strengthening activities that work the major muscle groups at least twice a week to help with balance and prevent falls for those with mobility impairments.

Physical activity doesn’t have to mean playing a sport or going to the gym. Playing a family game of tag, going for a swim or taking a walk outside with the family pet or to the store to get groceries count towards the physical activity recommendations.

Try out something new; you may find your new favourite activity! In any case, you’re bound to have some fun and feel like a happier and healthier you.

The Physical Activity Line is available Monday to Friday between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m in the Lower Mainland, toll-free at 1-877-725-1149.

For more information, visit www.physicalactivityline.com or email info@physicalactivity.com.

Other physical activity resources include ParticipACTION (www.participACTION.com) and Healthy Families BC (www.healthyfamiliesbc.ca).

“

If government doesn’t take a step back, B.C.’s recycling system is going to end up in a giant dumpster,”

Lana Popham, Opposition small business critic

Recycling from page 2

and a gag clause.

MMBC’s new recycling fees on businesses will be passed along to consumers through higher prices, Popham said, calling it a “hidden tax” that won’t be transparent to consumers.

Meanwhile, she says cities are unlikely to rebate property taxes that households already pay for recycling.

“The slogan for MMBC should probably be ‘Recycle once, but pay twice.’”

In some cities where MMBC won’t provide services, such as Kamloops, residents will pay for nothing, Popham added.

NOW

MMBC says it will take new types of containers and packaging not collected in B.C. before.

But Popham noted glass will no longer be collected curbside in many cities and there’s little evidence the system will improve recycling rates overall.

She said a smarter approach would have been to extend the beverage can deposit-refund system to more containers, such as milk cartons and laundry detergent jugs.

Liberal MLA Eric Foster (Vernon Monashee) responded in the Legislature, saying the province made changes to exempt most businesses from MMBC fees and

www.kootenayadvertiser.com A5 paperwork if they earn less than $1 million in revenue, generate less than one tonne per year of packaging, or operate as a single outlet.

“We’ve got all kinds of validation on this — chambers of commerce, local government, opportunities for local gov-

ernment to either continue the way they’re doing it or to have MMBC put their contractors in there to pick up,” said Foster, who serves on the government’s environment and land use committee.

“MMBC came forward as an opportunity to change people’s way

of doing business and to put the onus on the

original producers of the waste product or the

recyclable product to reduce.”

Letter: Concerns with wildlife management I am concerned about the management of our wildlife in B.C. and more particularly in the Kootenays. I am so frustrated, I don’t know where to start, however; I must preface my comments noting that although I am not a wildlife biologist, I am very familiar with the wildlife in the areas around my recreational residence.

Although I was not always a successful elk hunter when the 6 point only season was in place, I was pleased with the numbers of elk that I would see while hunting and recreating. Then, someone dreamed up the idea of Zone X and the uncontrolled and unmeasured harvest of elk below the 1100 metre line on both sides of the Rocky Mountain Trench.

I wonder how much of this regulation was based on sound wildlife management and how much was based on pressure from lobby groups. I would hate to think that if I was well articulated, vocal and had connections in the government that I could sway wildlife managers away from sound wildlife management practices based on solid data and toward my wants. I would love to read an interview by FJ Hurtak with retired wildlife biologists to get their perspectives on how much political/lobby group pressure forced them to make decisions that may not have been in the best interest of wildlife.

I question whether the wildlife managers had adequate resources (staff and funding) to really understand what is best for our wildlife and the results have been devastating in my opinion. At times, I

wonder if they are doing a number of wildlife experiments to see how they work out. Below are a few examples of what I mean: Why was there a need to “harmonize” wildlife regulations between regions? I believed that management units were created so that populations could be managed herd by herd and watershed by watershed – I guess that this has changed. Maybe the thinking behind the “harmonization” was that hunters have become too stupid to be able to figure out regional regulations. In my opinion, harmonizing the regulations has not gone well for wildlife; When the mule deer population was just starting to get healthy with a 4 point only regulation, why was any buck season opened? It is interesting to me that after a couple of years of open buck season, the length of the season had to be shortened and in some cases returned to a 4 point only season - hmm; Why would we take a world class elk hunt in the West Kootenays and open it up to a general open season? I wonder how many years it will be before the big bulls that were once there, will become a thing of the past? In my opinion, a fair and equitable Limited Entry Hunt would have been a much more “controlled” approach; Why do we have an open season on our whitetail does and fawns? I recognize that populations in some watersheds/areas may have been too dense but shouldn’t the focus have been on those areas and in a controlled way rather than an open

Tamara L’Hoost

mArKEtiNG CoNsULtANt

and uncontrolled harvest? Many of those fawns were males and I wonder what opportunities will be like in the coming years to harvest a buck; When the seasons where opened up on elk, mule deer and whitetail were the decisions made with the understanding of the true impact to the populations by predators as well? Again, I am not a wildlife biologist but my sightings of predators is greater than it has ever been.

I have a cabin in the Rockies where I have cameras positioned for security purposes and the most common species viewed are wolves.

I haven’t seen them myself but the cameras prove that they are there; in fact, I have to leave my golden retriever leashed in camp for his own protection from being lured off or attacked by the wolves.

In one tree stand during a three day period in the bow season, four bears and one cougar were seen ranging from 2 m to 35 m from the stand. The cougar was stalking me in response to my elk calls – I had lots of time to take pictures. No deer or elk were seen in those three days; in fact, I hunted on 37 days in the elk season and never saw a legal elk! On two occasions, the hunts had to be altered due to grizzly bears. I don’t hunt grizzlies and I don’t have an opinion on whether we should or shouldn’t harvest them but I can tell you that their numbers are increasing where I recreate. Do the wildlife managers truly know the impact by these species on the ungulates when combined with the liberal harvesting seasons?

Why are we permitting vehicle access to sensitive wildlife areas? I have a copy of a “Sportsman” map of the southern East Kootenays prepared

Yves Michaud

mArKEtiNG CoNsULtANt

Lily Durham PromotioNs

by Marvin Johnson in 1965 that outlines all of the watersheds named at that time. A comparison of the vehicle access then and now would be significant.

Do the wildlife managers truly understand the impact of this access?

I hope that I will be required to license my ATV soon so that I can be held accountable for where, when and how I travel; With current technology, why am I not required to report via a website, all wildlife that I harvest? To my way of thinking, this would give accurate data on numbers harvested, species harvested, sex of the harvested species, approximate location, hunter days etc. and may be less expensive than the sample mail out system that is now used.

I will officially be a “senior” hunter this season and wonder how much longer I will hunt; not because I won’t want to hunt but because of the concern for the impact that I will have IF I harvest an animal. I have never hunted bears in the past but I am now thinking that if I want organic meat on the table, my best approach might be to harvest the bears and cougars rather than the ungulates. I may have to follow the lead of Red Green and the “oath” that says something like: “I am a man and I can change if I have to, I guess”. Therefore, if I spent as much time hunting those species that are on the rise as I do for those that are on the decline, I might feel more in balance.

I realize that my little dissertation probably won’t help wildlife but it would be nice to know if there are others who have similar concerns about the management of our ungulates. ~Wayne Pelter, Kimberley

CUFW donates two bursaries to COTR The Canadian Federation of Women Cranbrook Club is very pleased to donate two more bursaries to the College of the Rockies.

Judie Blakley, the Financial and Scholarship Committee Chair, presented Lois Murray of the College of the Rockies a cheque for two fivehundred-dollar bursaries to the Licensed Practical Nursing Program for the year 2014-2015.

The club is using some of the funds raised from their annual Artisan Bazaar held at the Cranbrook Golf Course in November.

The Practical Nursing Course at the College of the Rockies is a two-year program. The eligibility requirements for one of these two bursaries will be presented to a mature female student (over 19 years of age) who is enrolled in

full-time studies at the College of the Rockies Practical Nursing Program and continuing to a second year. The tuition for this course has increased to $5,000.00 which adds burden to the returning students. Lois Murray said they are very pleased to get this financial help from the CFUW Cranbrook club at this time.

Students will be selected using the criteria based on a combination of demonstrated financial need and academic achievement.

“This is the second

vs

consecutive year the club has been able to help two East Kootenay women COTR students,” said Cathryn Henley, President of the CFUW Cranbrook Club.

“The monies are raised

through the sale of tables at the Annual Artisan Bazaar which features local crafters and artists of all kinds. Funds spent there by the crafters are reinvested in the East Kootenay to the benefit

of our community,” she added. “We are continuing our mission of education at all levels.

We support early childhood education as well as post-secondary in the East Kootenay,” said

Henley.

Five Year Financial Plan Bylaw

Within Council’s policy direction and key objectives, the Budget process is guided by the Finance and Computer Services Department and spans eight City departments. Each department is responsible for overseeing a multitude of programs that keep City operations running smoothly. Once the City’s Senior Management team completes their review following both the policy direction and priorities of Council, the Budget is presented to Council and the public in a series of open budget meetings. Council debates the issues presented and directs Administration on final Budget decisions. The process begins in early fall of each year and wraps up in March or early April of each year, when Council adopts the Financial Plan Bylaw. Visit our website and click on ‘Bylaws’ for more on all of our City bylaws.

BC’s Proposed ORV Legislation

Friday, March 28, 2014 Kootenay News Advertiser

Changes proposed for Off Road Vehicle Act Submitted Bill 13, the Off Road

Vehicle Act introduced today, promises certainty, safety and regulatory 10 ft

CAR vs WILDLIFE Everybody Loses

7.5 ft 5 ft

11% of collisions

86% of 2.5 ft collisions

High risk times of day: 6 - 8 am and 5 - 8 pm 1,930 wildlife vehicle collisions occur each year in the east and west Kootenays.

For driving tips go to www.wildlifecollisions.ca

1. The Off Road Vehicle Act will replace 40 year old Motor Vehicle (All Terrain Act).

Owners of quads, snowmobiles & off-road bikes will register their ORV and receive a license plate or numbered decal. BC Snowmobile Federation, ATV BC & many other provincial organizations have been consulted and support this.

2. BC is a dumping ground for stolen ORV’s in Canada; CO’s & law-abiding riders can’t identify those few culprits riding in alpine, riparian, grasslands & closed areas; BC is only province without ORV management; provides support & legitimacy to this form of motorized recreation.

3. Registration will cost less than $50.00 and will be one time only except when an ORV is transferred to a new owner.

Fee will only be enough to cover costs of registration.

MLA Bennett owns a quad and a snowmobile and strongly supports responsible motorized recreation.

The proposed Off Road Vehicle - or ORV - Act replaces the 40-year-old Motor Vehicle (All Terrain) Act with a modern management structure, designed to align with existing regulatory regimes at minimal cost.

Horoscope for the Week: March 28, 2014 Contact Michael O’Connor for a Personal Reading • 888.352.2936 sunstarastrology@gmail.com • www.sunstarastrology.com

Tip of the Week: Spring officially began on March 20th this year but it is the New Moon in Aries that really launches the season. It occurs on March 30 at 11:45 am PDT. What is of added significance is the Sun and Moon will also be closely conjunct Uranus. This indicates what can be described as an unpredictable explosive charge.

Uranus says ‘expect the unexpected’. It can be compared to the joker, yes in the playing cards, but like the one in Batman too.

Not surprisingly, Uranus is symbolized by the Fool in the Tarot. 0 is the number for this card and the history of both 0 and the Tarot are full of mystery, intrigue and twists and turns.

In addition to Uranus spliced into this New Moon Seed, all three are in a tight and charged aspect to Jupiter and Pluto. Venus forming a contentious angle to Saturn meanwhile adds a sobering weight to the plot. Altogether this will prove to trigger some very dynamic, assertive and even aggressive energy patterns and consequent events.

The culmination of this charged dynamic at the time of the Full Moon in Libra on April 15 at 00:42 PD is equally dramatic.

Astrologers have been talking about this one for months. To begin, it is a Lunar Eclipse, which is known to, in effect, block the past, accelerate time and produce events that bring about key turning points for the future.

Just hours prior to this peak point in the cycle, the Moon will make a series of challenging aspects again to Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto and to Mercury and Mars as well. This will activate people emotionally and noticeably. Mercury in Aries meanwhile will make hard aspects to Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto and Moon/Mars as well. The rest of the Month remains packed with power as well specifically on April 20, Easter Sunday. I will elaborate on these themes now and in the coming weeks. Stay tuned.

Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20) Your pioneering spirit may feel a bit more like a poltergeist under this Moon cycle. However, what might come as a surprise is just how cooperative and willing you stand to be.

At least a few antics are likely though, if not from you then from significant others. You may at least undergo a few tests the passing of which will be worthy of a star or two on your collar.

Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21) It may seem like you can feel the thundering hooves of a charging herd. This describes some of the energy patterns at play for you these days. You are ready and willing to work with the situation. You may need special tools, techniques and/or strategies. There is a danger of losing focus due to too many thoughts and interests. Set clear boundaries.

Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21) This new cycle indicates a resurgence of your sense of individuality and a creative rush to boot. The soul searching and perhaps challenging period of last month is yielding to resurgence; a veritable rebirth. Anticipate your confidence levels to rise steadily. Key communications and especially collaborations will prove inspiring and empowering.

Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22) A new day is dawning in your public and professional life.

This is the start of an expansive and dynamic cycle. Yet it will probably prove quite challenging. Of course, you will not be alone in this regard. Everyone is feeling the rising intensity levels and the challenges they consequently imply. This is a call for an empathetic approach balanced by a firm resolve to prevail.

Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23) This Aries New Moon is catapulting you into action. You are in the mood to go big. With Mars Retrograde, your energy and confidence levels may be up and down. However, the emphasis leans to the up side. To succeed you must be willing to overcome fears that may be blocking progress. The key is to take deliberate action to build momentum.

Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22) Some new initiatives in your daily rhythm and routine which stand to affect your overall lifestyle have begun. There may be a few delays and a few curve balls to deal with, yet the process is in motion. It may take until mid-May before all the lights are green. Patience will pay off at least eventually, so aim to be strategic and flexible on all fronts.

Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22) Some shifting and shaking or at least unexpected events on relationship fronts are underway. These may be giving you reason to feel cautious. At worst, they are producing worry and stress. Your health may be delicate these days, so stay cool in the heat to keep stress levels down. Control your imagination and stick to the facts.

Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21) You are determined to take some bold new leads and initiatives. These are requiring a creative and imaginative approach. You may wish you could feel more confident.

While you can practice self-control, you cannot control the flow. Exercising trust in and acceptance of circumstances and timing will help.

Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21) How much fun can you have? Measurements aside, you are in a playful mood. Boredom can be the source of stimulating dramas, to keep things interesting. Just remember that life does not judge but does teach by consequences. Meanwhile sweet dreams of what could be are bouncing around in your mind. Dream on… but take some action too.

Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19) Whatever is happening on the home front, it is probably not boring. Circumstances are pushing you to take account. Or is that a headcount of your best buddies and key contacts?

Either way, digging deeper than you might usually is in the script. Finances, investments, inheritances and/or tending to taxes are featured. Tis the season….

Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19) Many new thoughts, perspectives and perceptions are awakening in your mind. These are linked to new places and faces as well. You are in the mood to cut loose anyway.

The time is right to experiment with new modes of selfexpression. Cultural stimulations will provide a few perks and prove satisfying as well. Exciting times!

Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20) You are in an ambitious mood. As much as this likely includes stimulating your economy, you may also want to realize other returns as well. Bringing old affairs to resolution represent their own form of getting ahead. This process of knocking on and opening new doors and of closing old ones could well produce a boost in confidence.

self-sustaining, safe and environmentally responsible,” said Steve Thomson, Minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations.

Increased use of quads, snowmobiles and other ORVs has helped British Columbians get out and enjoy the beauty of the province’s backcountry.

Bill 13 will help ensure these vehicles are driven in a safe and environmentally responsible manner.

The act, if passed and brought into force, will: Establish a one-time registration system specifically designed to integrate with the preexisting structure of the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia’s vehicle registry, reducing implementation costs. ORVs will have to be registered and display a clearly visible number plate before they can be operated on Crown or other public land.

Allow the development of regulations on the rules of operation (such as wearing helmets), safety standards and conditions of use for a wide range of modern ORVs, including snowmobiles, all-terrain vehicles or “quads”, dirt bikes and utility terrain vehicles.

Assist in identifying stolen or abandoned ORVs, by requiring ORVs to be registered in a database that is accessible to peace officers at all times.

Provide officers with more effective enforcement tools to target the small number of irresponsible ORV owners that endanger others or damage sensitive habitat. This includes the ability to stop and inspect ORVs for violations, seize an ORV for safety or evidence purposes, and increase the maximum fine for offences from $500 to $5,000.

Included in the proposed ORV legislation is an amendment to the Special Accounts Appropriation and Control Act establishing the ORV Trail Management Sub-account. This will ease the process of providing future investments directly into developing and maintaining trails, delivering lasting benefits to the ORV tourism industry in rural communities.

The proposed ORV Act is the result of extensive consultation, and represents a fair compromise for all user groups. Implementation, including registration provisions, is anticipated in the fall of 2014.

10 Neat Things

by Top Crop Garden, Farm & Pet

New Edibles

1. Planting with a purpose! Over the past few years, more and more gardeners have been looking at their yards and gardens as a place to grow not only beautiful flowers, but also fruit and vegetables.

Along the way, they realize that these plants can be both beautiful and useful and more and more edibles make their way into hanging baskets, containers and flower beds.

2. How sweet is this? Ipomea - or sweet potato vine - is a popular addition to flowering containers to add contrast with interesting foliage. They have smaller tubers that can be harvested and eaten in the fall, but this season, there are four new varieties of regular fruit-bearing sweet potatoes available; they are: Beauregard (orange skin and flesh, typical yam type), Georgia Jet (pink with orange flesh, early and high yielding), Toka Toka Gold (yellow skin and flesh, stores very well) and Tainung 65 (pink skin with pale yellow flesh, early to mid season).

3. A blast of orange. Another great choice for containers is the new pepper variety ‘Orange Blaze’. It grows on a compact plant and has a high yield of fruit. They are beautiful looking, three-lobed peppers that mature from green to bright orange early on and boast a very sweet flavour with a crisp, juicy texture.

4. Tumble, but don’t fall! As delicious as they are pretty, cascading tumbler tomatoes are great for hanging baskets and patio planters. The new ‘Yellow Tumblers’ add a splash of sunny yellow this season. They are extremely productive, yielding masses of one to two inch yellow cherry tomatoes.

5. Create your own Little Italy. If there is one plant, besides the tomato, that is an essential part of Italian cooking, it is basil. There are many different varieties on the market and if you can’t make up your mind, you don’t have to. The new ‘Try Basil’ actually has three different types of basil Genovese, serrated and dark red - all in one pot.

6. Meet the Mighty Veggies! We have come to know and love the Mighty Matos over the last couple of seasons and now they are bringing their friends into our gardens. New additions to the grafted vegetables are Mighty Veggies ‘Cool Cucumber’ and ‘Epic Dusty Eggplant’. Also available for the first time are Mighty Melons - there will be watermelon, cantaloupe and honeydew. As with the Mighty Matos these are stronger, more vigorous plants with higher yields and superior defenses against diseases and less than ideal soil conditions.

7. Berry good. Herbs and vegetables are not the only plants making a move into smaller spaces such as patios and container gardens. The ‘Brazelberry’ series features new varieties of raspberry and blueberry that are thornless, short and compact and bred to produce fruit like crazy all season long. Enjoy ‘Raspberry Shortcake’, ‘Jelly Bean Blueberry’ and ‘Peach Sorbet Blueberry’.

8. More berrylicious news. Gone are the times when all we had growing in our gardens were strawberries, raspberries and maybe a few blueberries. New varieties of these traditional fruits are always being developed and other new berries are becoming available as well. If you are looking for something unique to add to your berry patch this year, why not consider marionberry, salmonberry, lingonberry, honeyberry or ‘Askola’ and ‘Leikora’, two new seaberry (or seabuckthorn) varieties?

9. Romance your way through the garden. If you have a bit more space in your garden, consider planting a fruit tree. Bred by the University of Saskatchewan, the ‘Romance’ series of tree form cherries is extremely hardy. These short, compact trees are self-pollinating with sweet and sour varieties as well as a combo variety this year with three varieties of ‘Romance’ cherries in one pot.

10. Grow your own fruit salad. If you want a tree with even more variety and have a sheltered corner in your yard, the ‘Fruit Cocktail’ tree is for you.

This is one tree with ‘Frost’ peach, ‘Puget Gold’ apricot, ‘Red Haven’ peach, ‘Hardy Red’ nectarine and ‘Blue Damson’ plum all grafted onto it. It is classified a Zone 5, so it will need some protection.

COTR business students win at competition

for the pre-weekend simulation held prior to the official competition weekend. The Junior Division team, consisting of Business Administration diploma program students, came away with a second-prize win for the weekend simulation in Kelowna.

All competitors, including teams from Kingston, Ontario, Vancouver, Victoria, Kelowna and Medicine Hat, were tasked with

running a simulated bike company. Team members assumed the roles of Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operations Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Marketing Officer and Chief Human Resources Officer. Judging was based on each team’s strategic plan report, two team oral presentations and the results of the company’s operations.

“I am very proud of both of our teams,” says College of the Rockies business instructor and team coach, Butch Butalid. “This competition is such a great experien-

To assist with travel costs, the teams received financial support from College of the Rockies’ Students’ Association, College of the Rockies’ Faculty Association and the Rotary Club of Cranbrook. “Without the assistance of our sponsors we would not have been able to send two teams to Kelowna for the competition,” Butalid continues. “Our accomplishments are, in large part, due to them.”

Mustangs from 19642014 will take over the Ramada Hotel’s parking lot in Creston when a roundup is held to celebrate the Ford Mustang’s 50th birthday from 10 a.m.-3 p.m.

April 19.

One of the longest continuously produced sports cars, with close to 10 million built to date, Ford and Mustang developer Lee Iacoca

were excited to release their sporty new pony car. With massive advertising and a huge exhibition at the New York World’s Fair, the Mustang made an early debut April 17, 1964.

“The new Mustang set sales records that will never be broken, with over 22,000 cars sold the first day,” said event organizer Bill Pfeifer.

“Dealers ran out of Mustangs and 60,000 orders were placed that

first week.”

By the end of the first year, over 68,000 were sold. Priced at around $2,320, people couldn’t get enough of the Mustang, and at the end of 1966, sales showed an amazing 607,568 units sold.

“The performance muscle car wars were on and Ford sent some of their new pony cars to an ex-car racer, a Texas chicken farmer named Carroll Shelby,”

said Pfeifer. “He transformed the Mustang into a racing thoroughbred called GT-350 and GT-500 Shelbys. These cars are highly valued and sought after by collectors today.”

For more information, contact Pfeifer at 250428-4940 or wpfeifer@ telus.net.

I am looking for someone to: lure said dragon away from south side of town, force said dragon to land, slay said dragon in whatever way you see fit. No actual pay, but experience of one million points that should get you a few level ups. Please note that I’m not talking about the green Dragon that frequents the area from time to time, she and I have an agreement.

Lost: silver Tabby, male, light grey with black stripes, went missing Thursday March 20, near Silver Creek, West Hwy area. (250)426-2822

To Who It May Concern: To the gentleman who broke into my yard, beat up my son and stole my two little dogs, if you could bring my dogs back, no charges will be laid.

I will even throw in a small reward. If you are any kind of a man, you will do what is right.

Large turnout and variety of rifles at Bull River Shooters event

PHOTO SUBMITTED

Top Gun Eric Boos of Washington using a standard rifle highly modified for precision.

by Bradley Woods We saw a great turn out at the range for our first match of the season and enjoyed a typical “Spring” day in the Kootenays!

We had a great mix of men, women, juniors and all abilities. Results are as follows: Small Bore Standard Rifle: Match Winner Rob McKeeman AAA - 1st Jeramey Marsh, 2nd Rocky Marsh

AA - Trudy Phillips A - Greg Nyquist B – 1st Mike Keeling, 2nd Justin Marsh Small Bore Hunter Rifle: Match Winner Rob McKeeman AAA – 1st Jeramey Marsh, 2nd Trudy Phillips AA – Rick Fraser A - Gary Phillips B – 1st Mike Keeling, 2nd Justin Marsh, 3rd Emmiline Aune On Sunday, shooters gathered for a High Power match and it took

a shoot-out to determine the top 3 rankings: 1st Jeramey Marsh 2nd Rob McKeeman 3rd Al Albers (Lethbridge) Generally the turnout for a high power club match is lower and so we often don’t break the group into classes of ability or gun… the shooters are just excited to be shooting together!

For those not familiar with our sport, small bore refers to .22 calibre rimfire, with most shooters us-

ing .22LR in standard velocity. The “hunter rifle” is an off the shelf model with strict limits on weight, stock configuration and trigger pull weight. The “standard rifle” has more liberal limits and is where you see some fancy modifications! The small bore class is by far the most popular and affordable discipline. Most shooters choose a quality rifle that meets hunter requirements and use it in both classes; this doesn’t work the other way!

The high power discipline requires shooters to use a rifle in 6mm (.243) or bigger and must not be a magnum cartridge (you would not want to shoot that 40 times in a match!) to protect the targets from damage. The most popular cartridges are: .260 Rem, 7mm-08, 7mm BR, .308 or .243.

Silhouette shooting is like a big shooting gallery. We shoot from the standing position with the rifle held free-hand.

Small bore sees targets from 40 metres to 100 metres and high power is shot from 200m to 500m. To score a hit the

target must fall down.

“Ringing” a target is a hit where the target

turns or wobbles but stays standing… and is not scored as a hit! Tar-

gets are made from steel see Shooters page 26

were staked out at set distances and the successful shooters took food home! Shooters are classified based on their scores and only compete against shooters in their own class. As you compete, your scores are recorded and when you achieve enough

scores in the next class you move up… which is everyone’s prime goal.

Generally you are competing against yourself in your desire to improve your scores and all silhouette shooters help you celebrate any accomplishment with gusto!

Our next club match is April 12 for smallbore and April 13 for high power.

All matches start at 10 a.m. unless otherwise noted. Any-

one can participate in a club match, even nonmembers (we expect you’ll likely want to join because you will have had so much fun and will realize what a great group we are!) We do ask that participants arrive by 9 a.m. to register which allows us to organize the match and gives everyone a chance to warm-up and check settings on scopes. Starting promptly at 10:00 allows the day to prog-

ress in a timely fashion.

We shoot a match in the morning and again in the afternoon, with most shooters competing in 2 classes of guns (so 2 matches in the am and 2 in the pm). Lunch is usually available for a few dollars. Match fees are $10 per gun for the whole day.

If you’re new to silhouette and feel nervous about trying it, then our Intro Shoot April 6 is perfect for you. Mem-

bers will be on hand to coach and even let you try some of our rifles.

Elk Valley Water Quality Plan Consultation Open Houses Teck is working with communities, First Nations and governments to create an Elk Valley Water Quality Plan that will maintain the health of the watershed and support continued, sustainable mining in the Elk Valley.

We Want to Hear From You

Consultation Open Houses: Ask questions and provide input at an upcoming open house.

Fernie Senior Citizen’s Drop-In Centre 562 3rd Avenue April 22, 2014 5:00–8:00 p.m.

The objective of the Elk Valley Water Quality Plan is to address water quality concerns associated with mining activity in the Elkford Community Conference Centre watershed, including selenium. The process to develop the (large meeting room) plan includes several public consultation periods, the first of 750 Fording Drive which took place in fall 2013. The second consultation period April 23, 2014 will take place from April 9–30, 2014.

5:00–8:00 p.m.

During the public consultation period, Teck is asking for your feedback on the work being done to develop the Elk Valley Water Quality Plan. Your input will be considered in the development of the Plan.

Consultation materials, including an online feedback form, will be available at www.teck.com/ElkValley on April 9.

Sparwood Senior Citizen’s Drop-In Centre 101 4th Avenue April 24, 2014 5:00–8:00 p.m.

A presentation will begin at 6:00 p.m. for each open house, followed by a question and answer and open discussion session. Refreshments will be provided.
