Assisted suicide advocacy legal fight carries on
Kevin Parnell
STAFF REPORTER
The mother of a late West Kelowna woman who was the first Canadian to win the right to doctor-assisted suicide says her daughter is with her every step of the way and she is committed to continuing the fight that Gloria Taylor was waging when she passed away. Anne Fomenoff spoke about her daughter Gloria at a press conference held on Monday by the B.C. Civil Liberties Association as the association begins its landmark journey to the Supreme Court of Canada, which will hear arguments on doctor-assisted suicide for the first time in 20 years in October. “I am so proud of my daughter and we are continuing the struggle for compassion and choice in Gloria’s name,” said Fomenoff at press conference in Vancouver. “I feel that Gloria is here with me every day. I am sure she is sitting at this table. I can hear her encouraging me and saying, ‘Go for it Mom.’” The B.C. Supreme Court ruled in 2012 that the Criminal Code of Canada provisions against assisted dying were unconstitutional. The federal government then appealed and the B.C. Court of Appeal overturned the lower court’s ruling in late 2013. The BC Civil Liberties Association then appealed to the Supreme Court of Canada which will hear oral arguments in the case beginning Oct. 14, 2014. Fomenoff says her daughter believed in Canadians’ right to choice. “She fought a courageous battle. She believed all Canadians had the right to die peacefully. She wanted to die on her own terms. She did not want to die inch by inch, suffering in her own body.” Taylor suffered from ALS but died suddenly at the age of 64 from an infection. Jason Taylor, a Kelowna resident and Gloria’s eldest son, also spoke at Monday’s press conference. “This is a case is about choice. My mother strongly believed that all Canadians should have the right to decide how much suffering to endure at the end of life, based on their own values and beliefs. “It doesn’t make any sense that it’s legal to commit suicide, or to ask a doctor to disconnect a ventilator, but it’s a crime for a doctor to help someone like my mother to die at peace, without suffering, surrounded by the comfort of family and friends.” It has been 20 years since Canada’s highest court looked at the issue of doctor-assisted suicide when it heard the Sue Rodriguez case and dismissed a challenge to the law in a 5-4 decision.

Development would change the face of Peachland Kathy Michaels STAFF REPORTER
Peachland residents will get a chance to ask questions about a development that’s expected to double the town’s population in the next couple of decades.
The District of Peachland will hold a public hearing tonight (Tuesday, May 20) on the New Monaco project, which once completed will add 2,600 to 2,800 new homes to a 125-acre parcel at the junction of Highway 97 and Highway 97C.

survivor Mitch Walz gives a thumbs up prior to getting a ride in a GT3 Porsche up Knox Mountain Road by Knox Mountain Hill Climb driver Brent Thorkelson, who is also a volunteer for the Hands Together for a Cure campaign. Thorkelson asks people to donate per ride, and then gives these rides away for free to childhood cancer survivors and their siblings. For 57 years, the Knox Mountain Hill Climb has challenged drivers to race to the top of Knox, navigating 10 major turns and climbing 800 vertical feet in 2.2 miles. All of the GT3 Porsche passengers like Walz this year are campers from Camp Goodtimes, the summer camp run by the Canadian Cancer Society in the Central Okanagan. Thorkelson is a volunteer who runs Hands Together for a Cure. Less than nine per cent of the kids at Camp Goodtimes are from the Southern Interior region of the province, something the cancer society wants to change by raising awareness of this unique summer camp experience.

▼ HONOURARY FELLOWS
Quartet to to receive Okanagan College’s highest honour
Margriet Ruurs, Raghwa Gopal, Jim Henderson, and Garry Benson will take their place among an elite group as Okanagan College’s 2014 Honourary Fellows—the highest honour the college bestows. “These four individuals have made meaningful contributions in a range of areas—from the promotion of children’s literacy, to economic development and mentorship, First Nations and environmental advocacy, Sto fundraising,” said Jim Hamilton, president of Okanagan College. “And while the diversity is great, what they share in common is even more important, a longstanding dedication to the communities they serve.”
Margaret Ruurs An author of 30 children’s books and founder of KidsWWwrite, a website that publishes poems and short stories by young writers, Margriet Ruurs has dedicated her life to promoting literacy and giving children a place to express themselves creatively.
Film looks at Fed The CFA Society Okanagan will present the Okanagan’s only screening of the acclaimed documentary Money for Nothing: Inside the Federal Reserve on May 21 at Okanagan College. The independent, non-partisan documentary, narrated by actor Liev Schreiber, offers a never-before-seen, inside look at the world’s most powerful financial institution. The screening will take place May 21, 7 p.m., at the Kelowna campus lecture theatre of Okanagan College. Tickets are $10 each at the door.
“If this honour is a reflection of the impact KidsWWwrite has had on people, then I am thrilled,” said Ruurs. “I have letters from teachers and children from all over the world telling me what a huge difference it has made to them to be encouraged to write,” she says.
Raghwa Gopal Ruurs will be the first to address graduates at the college’s spring convocation ceremony on the morning of June 7. Successful business owner, software developer and an advisor to students in the college’s School of Business, Raghwa Gopal tirelessly gives his time and expertise to help entrepreneurs in the Okanagan Valley. Not only does he play a key role in advising students in many of Okanagan College’s programs in the School of Business, he is also vice-president of the Okanagan College Foundation. In addition, Gopal is active in the Kelowna Chamber of Com-
merce, Central Okanagan Economic Development Commission, and the Rotary Club of Kelowna (downtown). “My work with students and startups has been so rewarding,” said Gopal. “Building your own company is personally fulfilling, but the College has enabled me to help young people achieve the dreams that I aspired to when I was just starting out,” he said. Gopal will address the college’s business graduates during the spring convocation ceremony on the afternoon of June 7. A tireless Penticton-area volunteer and respected businessperson, Jim Henderson’s involvement with the college began 15 years ago when he owned the Canadian Tire next door to the Penticton campus. He joined the college’s program advisory council and later became president of the Okanagan College Foundation. During his tenure, Henderson was instrumental in raising the funds to build the Jim Pattison Centre of Excellence in Penticton. “It’s been wonderful to live in Penticton,” said Henderson. “Giving back to the College has been a great way to serve the community and ensure its bright future. I feel incredibly honoured.” Henderson will join Gopal on June 7 to ad-
dress graduating business students. Lawyer Garry Benson
Jim Henderson is a member of the Beaver Lake First Nation and founding partner of law firm Benson, Salloum and Doak in Kelowna. He was appointed Queen’s Counsel in 2009 —an honour given to lawyers who demonstrate exemplary service to the Canadian justice system. Specializing in business, real estate and First Nations law, Benson has long advocated for environmental interests within industry. Among his many volunteer and fundraising activities, Benson is particularly passionate about developing and improving the City of Kelowna and, in particular the Rutland area. “I feel very strongly that to be part of a community requires you to actively participate in any means that you can,” said Benson. “Kelowna has given me so many opportunities over the years, and I owe it to the people who live
here to give back.” Benson will address graduates at the summer convocation ceremony on June 26. The 2014 Honorary Fellows join Alan Gatzke, Ernie Philip and Barry Lapointe (2013), Janet Shaw, Yasmin John-Thorpe and Lane Merrifield (2012), Beverley Busson, Mel Kotler and Dr. Tom Landecker (2011), Dorothy Tinning, George and
Garry Benson Trudy Heiss and Peter
Haubrich (2010), Robert Fine, Barbara Marchand and Charles Armstrong (2009); Jeannette Armstrong, Ken Harding, Richard Cannings, Robert Cannings and Sydney Cannings (2008), Ken Smedley, Lorraine McGrath and Ross Gorman (2007), Mike Roberts, Lois Serwa and Albert Baldeo (2006) as recipients of the college’s highest honour.

ing sorry for the myriad of historical wrongs B.C. governments of the late 19th and early 20th centuries perpetrated on Chinese immigrants and residents. It also recognized the contribution Chinese Canadians have made to this country, a willingness to recognize historical sites important to the Chinese community and a vow to educate the public about the wrongs, in an attempt to make sure they never happen again to another group of immigrants to the this country. “I went back and looked at my presentation (from the Kelowna hearing) and (the apology) included everything I asked for,” said Wong. In the wake of that apology, Wong said he had two regrets. One was that his parents are not alive to see it—his mother was one of the thousands of Chinese immigrants forced to pay
a racist head tax instituted by the federal government from 1872 to 1923 when she came to Canada. The other was that a close friend, a highly decorated Chinese-Canadian war veteran who never stopped working to get the very apology Clark delivered, died recently at age 94 and also did not get to hear it. From the late 1800s to 1949, Chinese Canadians were not allowed to vote, hold public office and were discouraged from immigrating to Canada, despite having come here and helped build the railroad that united the country in its early days. They faced numerous laws, rules and regulations stopping them from having the same rights as Caucasian Canadians, even ones who had also immigrated to this country. And it was not just the government who acted in such a racist and dis-

criminatory manner. Businesses also had their own rules against the Chinese, rules that the government of the day turned a blind eye to. The apology, supported by the Opposition NDP and independent MLAs, addressed all of that. “While the governments which passed these laws and policies acted in a manner that (was) lawful at the time, today this racist discrimination is seen by British Columbians—represented by all members of the legislative assembly—as unacceptable and intolerable,” Clark told the legislature. Wong said the fact it was supported unanimously by B.C. legislators of all political stripes made a difference. “I think (new NDP leader) John Horgan said it best when he said when something as important as this has to be done, the entire legislature can act as

one.” B.C.’s apology, unlike the federal apology for the head tax that was delivered by Prime Minister Stephen Harper in the House of Commons in 2006, did not offer any compensation. It did, however, include a commitment to put $1 million into a legacy fund to be used for educational initiatives. Wong said he was okay with that. “I understood there would be no compensation and I’ve always felt no need for it,” he said. “What is adequate? Who do you pay? Do we continue to expect future taxpayers to keep paying?” He said he just wanted a recognition that Chinese-Canadians were treated badly and to hear an apology. “And we got that,” he said. awaters@kelownacapnews.com

Public Notice Public Hearing Notice is given that City Council will hold a Public Hearing on: Tuesday, May 27, 2014 at 6pm Kelowna city Hall, 1435 Water Street council chambers Council will hear representations from the public who deem an interest in the properties affected by proposed amendments to Official Community Plan 2030 Bylaw 10500 and Zoning Bylaw 8000 for:

As growth and evolution of the City continues, including new land acquisitions, alignment with Council and on-going development approvals, the City has identified miscellaneous amendments that are necessary for the Official Community Plan to stay current. Amendmets being consider are as follows: · Delete Policy 5.5.1 Table – City Centre building height is regulated through the Zoning Bylaw and individual height exemptions are to be dealt with via Development Variance Permits. · Delete Policy 5.25.1 – The Development Application Procedures Bylaw No. 10540 gives Staff the opportunity to request a Retail Impact Analysis pending on the scale/scope of an individual application, and therefore is unnecessary to be included in OCP policy. · Revise OCP Evaluation Checklist - Amend the checklist for additional clarity and to be more concise. · Addition of a Sign Design Guideline - Add a new policy (17.4) to ensure that context sensitive signs (form, character, and placement) are used for buildings with historical significance. · Amend Chapter 14 (Sections C. and E. Exemptions) – Exempting additions to Single Family Dwellings for secondary suites less than 30 sq. m. from a Development Permit application to streamline these application types. · Amend Future Land Use Map 4.1 - Existing Avonlea Neighbourhood Park playground is shown as S2/RES and should be designated as PARK to reflect actual land use.

Their approach is to attract health care, education and tech businesses, and develop a commercial component that spins off to a residential development.” The project is expected to double the city’s 5,000 resident population once completed. Fielding said it appears as though the development will comple-
ment Peachland’s current amenities. “I think that they are going to complement each other,” Fielding said. “This will have it’s own central village area, and downtown Peachland and Peachland waterfront will be a major attraction.” A significant financial spin-off for the district is also welcomed. “It’s a big increase to our tax base, and all of the infrastructure costs will be paid for by the developer,”
he said. If all goes ahead as planned, Fielding conceded may ruffle some Peachland residents who would “prefer to keep Peachland small.” “It has a nice small community feel, but if we don’t grow, the cost of staying small is tremendous,” he said. Infrastructure will inevitably need updating, and as that happens, the burden will fall on the taxpayer.
So, the more taxpayers there are, the easier that load will be. The New Monaco project isn’t the only one that’s expected to stretch the capacity of Peachland. The Ponderosa project in Peachland is also slated for a 15 to 20-year build out that will add another 2,000 plus residents in the area.

Leave global warming to science
M
ore dire warnings about the impact of global warming were released in scientific studies last week. This latest study raised some alarm about the speed with which ice is melting in the Antarctic. The impact of that is a rising ocean level, which raises the possibility of flooding for many countries, and changes to our atmosphere weather conditions as generally accepted past climate conditions become less predictable.
But what also came out was the political rhetoric, particularly in the U.S. by Conservative-leaning politicians, that we’ve become used to hearing. They embrace the globalwarming-is-a-hoax theory, that science is not to be trusted, to put our faith in the big oil lobby interests and pray to God for his intervention to save us. Given the campaign cash cow that the carbon-producing industries have become, politicians are prisoners to advocating that point of view to keep
their jobs. So enough already. Time for all politicians to be tuned out and let real scientists carry on the analysis and research needed to better understand what is happening to our planet. We tend to not be as bombastic about global warming within the Canadian political arena as our American counterparts, but it seems clear that Prime Minister Stephen Harper wants the Northern Gateway pipeline project to proceed. Another sign of that was re-
flected in his government’s announcement last week of stepped up efforts to protect our coastlines from oil spills. What is needed is for the science community to continue to monitor what is happening in the Arctic and Antarctic, and to offer insight based on further research and analysis of what is happening to our Mother Earth. We need more science and less political pandering to help us prepare for what lies ahead for the next 20 to 50 years and beyond.

Will school course be aboriginal education or victim studies?
T
he B.C. School Trustees’ Association is calling for a mandatory high school course on the history of residential schools set up to assimilate aboriginal children into European culture. Trustees propose a 25-hour course required for all graduating students, using interviews with residential school survivors, presentations by aboriginal leaders and discussion of current events. This would build on aboriginal courses already in offered in B.C. schools, and a public education effort that began with Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s 2008 apology and
compensation for Canada’s residential school policy. B.C. Tom Teachers’ Fletcher Federation vice-president Glen Hansman gave a speech on the need for mandatory education to a 2012 teacher conference. He said current aboriginal culture courses are poorly attended, and went on to denounce a school system he said is still based on “colonialism” and a “settler con-
VICTORIA VIEWS
struct” of history. “We need to acknowledge that racism is the norm in public schools – still today,” Hansman said. Is it really? He also claimed that the purpose and legacy of the residential schools have been “deliberately hidden” from school curriculum. In lieu of evidence, Hansman recounted old anecdotes of American-style stereotyping from his own schooling in Ontario. But mostly he demanded social engineering in schools that must of course include more funding, more teacher professional development time and an affirmative action program to recruit more aboriginal teachers.
Do Hansman’s allegations reflect the kind of attitude that would lead to truth and reconciliation? Or are they signs of another unfortunate legacy, that of the victim studies mentality that permeates our universities? Here’s a suggestion for this mandatory course. Students could spend a couple of hours on one of the definitive works of B.C. aboriginal history, A Stó:lo Coast Salish Historical Atlas. A long-term project of the Stól:lo Nation, the atlas has meticulously documented chapters on European contact and residential schools, and others that piece together oral histories and what few written records there are of B.C. First Nations life at
the time of European contact. A journal kept at Fort Langley from 1827 to 1830 documents some of the raids between aboriginal communities on the Fraser River and Vancouver Island, corroborating elders’ accounts. During those three years, Cowichan men attacked the Chilliwack Stó:lo community four times. In the same period, the journal records 30 incidents of inter-community violence, some reaching down to present-day Washington state. Atlas editor Keith Thor Carlson summarized the research this way: “Viewed from the perspective of the

▼ NO. 8 ROUTE
TIMELESS QUALITY & COMFORT
Change to bus route will create hardship To the editor: I am a person who is blind and I’m a regular user of the Kelowna transit system. Here is a letter I sent to a number of people associated with the local transit system expressing my displeasure at a rather significant change that will occur with the No. 8 route, effective Sept. 1. Dear Mr. Boyd and Mr. Kittmer: It was a pleasure meeting the both of you at the transit open house at Orchard Park on May 1. However, I was not pleased to learn of the changes you are considering for the No. 8 route, where it will no longer go down Ethel Street after Sept. 1. This is a very important issue to me as a regular
transit user. As a person who is blind, it is my main form of mobility. As a result, I have copied a number of individuals to express my displeasure with this potential change. I realize that transit is not meant as a door-todoor service. However, there should be a bit of convenience tied in with the service. I live on Francis Avenue. Currently, to take the No. 8, I need to only walk to the end of my street, turn right on Ethel, walk a block and cross the street where I can catch the bus at Ethel and Morrison. It is my understanding that as of Sept. 1, the bus will not travel down Ethel. You are both aware of the new routing that is being proposed so there is no
need to review that. This exclusion of the No. 8 going down Ethel will mean I will need to either walk over to Pandosy or Springfield to catch this bus. Now there is also the new No. 5 going down Gordon, which could be an option but it doesn’t go to Orchard Park. If you don’t feel this change will impact me then what about the patients at Cottonwoods extended care facility or visitors who need to get to that facility? Many of the visitors or residents may find it difficult, if not impossible, to wheel or use their walkers to go to Springfield, Pandosy or Gordon, or be dropped off at those locations. Here is a potential solution.
It is my understanding the No. 8, as of September, will leave Orchard Park, travel down Springfield which turns into Cadder, turn left onto Pandosy, left onto KLO and left at Okanagan College. Is it possible on the way back for the bus to turn right out of the college onto KLO, turn left on Casorso, right onto Lanfranco, right onto Lakeshore, right onto KLO, left on Richter, right onto Raymer, left on Ethel and turn right onto Springfield up to Orchard Park? It is my understanding that one of your objectives is to have a bus that can take people from Rutland to Kelowna General Hospital. My suggested route would keep that happen-
ing but also allow people on Ethel to be served. To Kelowna counciland the MLA who represents this area—who have been contacted—I hope they can help in reversing the decision that has been made regarding the No. 8 bus route. I will be very displeased if this change goes through. For me it will be an inconvenience but think of those who have greater mobility issues. I am blind. I couldn’t imagine pushing a wheelchair or a walker in the winter out to Gordon, Springfield or Pandosy. In future, please remember the people component when you make your decisions.

▼ OPINION
Danger of ‘guilt trip’ education From Fletcher A8 aggressor, raids and attacks appear to have been motivated primarily by a desire to obtain quick wealth (in the form of slaves and property such as dried and smoked salmon) or to exact revenge for previous insults.” Archaeological study of stone fortifications and weapons at fishing sites in the Fraser Canyon traces a history of inter-community violence back at least 3,000 years. Historians character-
ize some of this as warfare. British colonial authorities had some “settler constructs” about these activities: they saw them as assault, robbery, abduction and murder as well as slavery. This is the seldom-discussed backdrop for the European settlement of British Columbia, the imposition of British law and the later establishment of church-run residential schools. None of this is to excuse the forced removal of aboriginal children
from their families, the horrendous abuse and neglect or the multi-generational damage to a culture already weakened by waves of smallpox. This 1928 plan to fix what was called the “Indian problem” deserves to be understood by everyone. But glossing over historical context and presenting a guilt trip to students would serve no one well.

BRIEFS CHAMBER ACTS
The Kelowna Chamber of Commerce will represent the views of local businesses at the BC Chamber of Commerce Annual General Meeting and Conference, May 22 to 24 in Richmond. “We’ll be attending this event to make sure our local businesses’ views are heard and understood at the provincial level, and that our local needs help drive the BC Chamber’s policy and advocacy agenda,” said Curtis Darmohray, president of the Kelowna Chamber of Commerce. The BC Chamber of Commerce Annual General Meeting and Conference is held in a different community each year. The event is the largest annual business policy-building forum in the province. Every year, BC Chamber members develop and submit policies for the consideration of their peers. This year, 45 policies have been forward and will be voted on at the AGM policy sessions. Each policy must receive twothirds of votes to pass. If the policy passes, it will become official BC Chamber policy, and the BC Chamber will advocate it to appropriate tiers of government. The Kelowna Chamber of Commerce is calling for phasing out of provincial control of rent increases, maintaining rental regulations to ensure fair treatment of tenants, streamlined dispute resolution mechanisms and facilitation of programs to manage cases of serious hardship from rental increases. “This continues to be a widely debated topic. We feel the current limits on allowable rent increases (inflation +2%) creates a disincentive for the production of new rental housing,” said Tom Dyas, the Kelowna Chamber’s policy committee chair. “We are also advocating for the creation of the business vote to allow business a greater say in municipal elections.” The Kelowna Chamber has also authored a policy calling for a competitive tax environment for credit unions. Recent changes to the small business tax benefit has serious impacts on the ability of credit unions to compete equitably in financial markets. Valley Chambers also continue to call on the province to resume the feasibility process to establish a South Okanagan national park.
Hot tub prize helps Westside food bank For the third annual “Hot Tub Giveaway” presented by the West Kelowna Warriors, Keri Carlson was the winner of a hot tub, donated by Beachcomber Home Leisure, valued at $6,500.

Throughout the season, Warriors fans were encouraged to donate non-perishable food items or make a minimum $2 cash donation in support of the food bank. The drive raised more than $7,500 in cash and food. Andrew Deans, director of business operations for the Warriors, said he was thrilled with the fundraising efforts. “The whole philosophy of the Warriors is to support community spirit and give back as much as possible,” he said. “This fundraising drive, coupled with our work throughout the year with the Westside Community Food Bank, has helped provide much needed support. “We’re thrilled for the Carlson family, thankful to the Beachcomber family for their generous donation, and couldn’t be happier to be helping such an important cause in our community.” “Beachcomber Home Leisure has been proudly supplying quality products to the Okanagan Valley for more than 20 years,” added Beachcomber manager Kent Melvin. “We are happy to support the West

How charismatic leadership fuels entrepreneurial dreams
I
required a learning curve these past four years to inform myself of the significance of entrepreneurial leadership as it pertains to one’s journey into the realm of entrepreneurial pursuits. As a result, I have become entrenched with the theory of the magical blend of both entrepreneurial and leadership principles with a sprinkling of charisma for flavour. Let me share with you this week with a tone-setting phrase captured from

make a difference in assembling a team that leads your venture to the success goal line or stalls you at mid-field. The quality that separates leadership is one’s approach to people. Let me offer an illustration to point this out. A young woman dined with two noted executives on successive nights. When asked about her impression of the rival men, she said, “When I left the dining room after sitting next to Mr. Jones, I thought he was the clev-

Brown possessed a personal charm sorely lacking in the leadership style of his economic rival. His personal appeal attracted both friends and gave him a leading edge in the design, creation and deliverance of his entrepreneurial dreams.

Any person putting down LESS than 20% down payment on a home is automatically required to have their mortgage “insured” through 1 of 3 insurers in Canada. Canada Mortgage and Housing Corproation (CMHC), Genworth, or Canada Guarantee. While CMHC is a federally government operated, the other two insurers are private corporations. This insurance coverage is called “default insurance” and protects the Lender in the event that someone were to stop making payments on their mortgage. Typically the premium paid on this is 3.15% of the total mortgage amount and is built into the mortgage. Although this may seem expensive to some people, it gives Canadians the opportunity of home ownership with as little as 5% down on a property.
If you have ANY questions regarding mortgages or the mortgage process, please don’t hesitate to give me a call. Always happy to help!

Q A
But of all leadership attributes, it seems charisma is perhaps the least understood. At first glance, charisma appears to be an invisible energy or magnetism. But in reality, the reality, I have discovered that charisma is both explainable and learnable, and is applicable to life. It’s not restricted to the entrepreneurial journey, but it does set entrepreneurial leaders apart from the pack. As well, I do accept readily that charis-

How do I know a care-provider will be honest and not take advantage of my mom; she forgets easily and will believe whatever someone tells her.
It is important for your peace of mind knowing that whoever is helping your mom is honest and won’t take advantage of her memory issues.

Q A
Why should I advertise in the Kelowna Capital News?
Spend Your Advertising Dollars Wisely...This is a term that, when it comes to advertising you will hear from each potential avenue that you decide to take. Radio, newsprint, online, whatever path you choose, will all tell you the same things… they are the BEST, with the best exposure, with the most readership, the most listeners, and that their website gets the most hits or “unique visitors”! It is their job to tell you that, to believe it, and to make you believe it. I believe that knowledge is power, so if you are researching it, then you are already on the right track; the toughest part is who to believe or what to believe. As a sales rep in a company that is extremely reputable, I am not writing this to get your business, but to educate you on the process. The Capital News has been a part of your community for 83 years. The longevity and reputation really speak for themselves. As a business owner, you know that word of mouth and reputation are key components in having success within your business. The Capital News has been successful because it strongly possesses these attributes. Many feel that the cost of advertising is an expense, while the ones that benefit from it, see it as an investment. The Capital News goes to just over 50,000 homes, and is one of the most affordable forms of advertising in the area. In tough economic times, getting the most “bang for your buck” is essential for most, and the Capital News gives you that opportunity. Being well informed is just good business sense!

ma helps to boost a leader’s influence in whatever challenges they may be confronted with. Let’s look at a few qualities of a charismatic entrepreneurial leader, to give you a feel for my focus relative to an entrepreneurship success formula. Charisma is often defined as the ability to inspire enthusiasm, interest or affection in others by means of personal charm or influence. I feel leaders who have this special ability share four things in common. They love life, feel passionate about life in general, and celebrate rather than complain, are characterized by joy, warmth, energy and radiance in an infectious way. We are hardwired to take on the energy of those around us. Leaders who love life have charisma because they fill the room with a positive energy. They value the potential in people, thus they expect the best from those around you in everything you engage in your life— business, social, playtime. Put a 10 above everyone’s head. Leaders see people not as they are, but as they could be and help them to build a bridge to get there….. They give hope as all of us have an inner longing to improve our future and our fortunes. Charismatic entrepreneurial leaders connect with people by painting tomorrow brighter than today. The future is full of amazing opportunities and unrealized dreams. They share themselves as leaders with charisma add value to people by sharing wisdom, resources and even special occasions; they embrace the power of inclusion for learning, brainstorming or simply coffeetalk. Such leaders embrace the entrepreneurial team spirit and value togetherness so they are never lonely at the top. Entrepreneurial charismatic leadership is an-
chored in substance. The greatest satisfaction is found by serving, the greatest personal pleasure being to celebrate the successes of those around them. Victories are always a team triumph. Richard Branson, the 57-year-old British mega-millionaire entrepreneur with 200 branded companies, 50,000 employees and $24 billion in annual revenues, has stated that “great entrepreneurial leadership isn’t just about what to do you do and why you do it.” Passion, he says, must be the driving force. “You must be passionate about what you want to do and help change the world for the better. “There is no point in spending time being entrepreneurial unless you’re going to make a massive difference in people’s lives who 100 per cent believe in what you’re doing and what they’re doing.” I suspect by now you catch the drift of my column on the powerful magic that can evolve from charismatic entrepreneurial leadership. So let me close today with my list of 10 reasons of what becoming an entrepreneurial leader can mean to you: 1) To bring out the inner strength in yourself 2) To make yourself proud by walking on a path that is less travelled 3)To show people around you that you are a person of strength and confidence 4) To value your own skills and strengths 5) To be an inspiration and example for others 6) To be creative and innovative 7)To make a difference in the lives of others 8) To be happy 9) To love life…and to love self 10) To create wealth Shakespeare gave us a line to remember forever: “All things are ready if our minds be so.” Joel Young is founder of the Okanagan Valley Entrepreneurs Society. eagleyoung@shaw.ca

Considering the benefits of incorporation H BEHIND THE COUNTER
Gabriele Banka tax credit is deducted, resulting in zero personal tax effect if your income remains in the lower tax bracket. If you decide that you would like to earn a salary from your business, you can determine the amount of salary that you would wish to earn to keep your personal income in a certain tax bracket and enjoy some tax savings. You can also declare and pay yourself a bonus that doesn’t need to be paid until six months after the fiscal year end of the company, to defer the tax on that bonus until the following year depending on when you set your fiscal year end date. There are also ways of estate and family planning using a company whereby you can “crystallize” the value of your company for future generations, or set up a family trust to provide for your family in the future. The company has a perpetual existence and does not expire when the shareholders die. Other than tax savings, there are other advantages such as the possibility for more capital investment by investors. People may be more likely to invest in an incorporated company without becoming liable for the debts of the company. A company has limited liability in that the shareholders are only liable up to the amount of their investment in the company, unless they have signed personal guarantees as officers of the company which is required by most banks. Directors of the company are liable for any debts to government agencies. An incorporated company is usually taken more seriously in the eyes of banks, creditors and customers. It is believed that if you have gone through the trouble and expense of incorporating you must have long range plans for your business. The disadvantages to incorporation are the in-
crease in paperwork. You need to file incorporation documents, notices, minutes and annual reports. You will need to file a corporate tax return in addition to your personal tax return. The BC Company’s Act indicates that each company requires an audit unless waived at an annual meeting by the board of directors and this needs to be documented in your minute book. This Act also requires
that you maintain proper accounting records. The financial statements and the fair representation of the numbers represented in the financial statements are the responsibility of management so for your own protection, it would be a good idea to understand what is in your financial statement. Your accountant can explain all the different aspects of your financial statement to you and although not usually made obvious, you are approv-

ing the financial statements produced by your accountant, so if you are uncomfortable with any of the numbers, it is up to you to speak up and ask questions. Gabriele Banka is a CPA, CGA and the owner of Banka & Company.

aving passed the personal tax deadline of April 30 (moved to May 5 this year), many of us now face the deadline for the filing of the sole proprietorship (small business) returns. Any balance owing on a small business return would have needed to been paid by April 30 (again, May 5 this year). I usually get asked the same questions each year surrounding the incorporation of a small business. Many people that have proprietorships ask how they can reduce their tax bill. One way is to incorporate. There are many tax advantages to incorporation. An incorporated company is considered to be a distinct legal entity. A small incorporated business is taxed at an average tax rate of 25 per cent (federal and provincial combined). If your company is eligible for the small business deduction, the combined rate drops to 13.5 per cent for 2014. Compare that with the lowest combined personal tax rate for 2014 of 20.06 per cent (up to a combined federal and provincial taxable income of $37,568, ignoring personal tax credits), it certainly does make sense to incorporate for tax savings alone. However, if you will be drawing out all of the income out of the company, it would not be a good idea to incorporate because you may be exposing yourself to double taxation. To qualify for the small business deduction, you need to be a Canadian controlled private corporation, the company must generate income from active business in Canada. Personal service businesses where your main customer is one company and your services could be considered that of an employee will not qualify for the small business deduction. Neither will specified investment companies. Depending on how your share structure is set up and the limitations stated in your Articles of Incorporation, you may be able to split income with your family by issuing dividends to them out of the corporation. Dividends are grossed up and then the dividend

business setting and even more crucial when it comes to communication between family members and to add insight to healthcare personnel when dealing with eldercare issues. When emotions are high, more awareness of the heart’s voice behind the words is needed. Emotional validation is a basic human need. We craze for it more that we realize. When we are frustrated, tired, disappointed or hurt, we tend to want to discuss our feelings with another person so that we feel some relief. What we hope for through this venting is that the listener of our woes will “get” what is going on for us and validate our feelings by conveying that understanding with an empathetic look or even extend a wee bit of sympathy to us. It is cathartic and helps us to move forward in a more equalized way and thereby releasing some of our angst. Psychologist Guy
Winch offers up five steps that can accompany active listening to provide authentic emotional validation, especially to your loved ones: 1. Let the person complete their narrative so you have all the facts. 2. Convey you get what happened to them from their perspective (whether you agree with that perspective or not and even if their perspective is obviously skewed.) 3. Convey you understand how they felt as a result of what happened (from their perspective). 4. Convey that their feelings are completely reasonable (which they are, given their perspective). 5. Convey empathy or sympathy (not pity!) for their emotional reactions. One of author Stephen Covey’s tenets described in the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People is to “seek first to understand and then be understood.” My husband and I put these words in our marriage vows. It is not easy
to do when stress is in play. You must take one giant leap backwards, breathe and use every ounce of your intention to maintain harmony through discord. Using the art of listening in collaborative family caregiving will give you a Masters in Relationships that will benefit you in many ways. A change of attitude is not an easy feat to accomplish. Bernard Ferrari, in his McKinsey Quarterly article, writes: “Good listeners seek to understand— and challenge—the assumptions that lie below the surface of every conversation.” So remember, next time you are trying to firmly get your point across, try listening instead. Because, if you always take the position that you know what’s best, you may very well miss an opportunity to discover something better. Marjorie Horne is the owner of Caresmart Seniors Consulting

is the largest graphic illustration about UBC ever created in the Okanagan, spanning more than 80 feet in length by six feet in height. Months in the making, with two additional standalone panels the mural snakes out to more than 100 feet. The installation draws attention to a supporting website—ourstories.ok.ubc.ca—which tells long-form narratives
about a variety of exceptional UBCO students. Storytelling and artistic expression are vital ways to communicate achievements and cultural values, and to provide a sense of place and history, says Robert Eggleston, associate professor of English and associate dean of UBCO’s Faculty of Creative and Critical Studies. The Our Stories project is an opportunity for UBC to share with the
Okanagan stories about the way the university and local communities engage with each other, says Bud Mortenson, director of UBCO university relations. “We chose student stories that illustrate inspiring ways of how their experience is shaping their education and is in fact shaping the students and their futures. And those student experiences are helping shape and transform the Okanagan.”

Back-to-back valley titles for Owls Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER
From the season’s opening kick off, the KSS Owls’ primary goal was to make a return trip to the B.C. high school girls AAA soccer championship. Consider it mission accomplished for the Owls who downed the rival Mt. Boucherie Bears 2-1 in overtime Thursday to capture the Okanagan Valley title for the second year straight spring. Despite less than ideal field conditions at Boucherie, the Owls prevailed over their longtime foes, scoring the game winner just over two minutes remaining in the second extra period. Brianne Mapson converted a cross by Morgan Hughes to push KSS to
victory, boosting the Owls into the provincial tournament next week in Vancouver. “I think our girls just wanted it a little bit more,” said Owls coach Arnar Bernhardsson. “I think maybe we have a little bit better of a skill set, but because the field was in poor shape we weren’t really able to showcase that as much. “Boucherie is a good team, but we stuck to our game plan and managed to overcome the adversity to get the win.” The Owls opened the scoring at the 51-minute mark, as the Bears’ keeper mishandled Lexi Percival’s corner and the ball ended up in the back of the Boucherie net. The Bears responded 10 minutes later on an Owls’ defensive miscue,
as junior Serena Boulter connected for Boucherie to tie the game 1-1, eventually sending the game to overtime. After a conservative first extra session with few scoring chances for either side, the Owls came on the second extra stanza and clinched their second consecutive title on Mapson’s goal. It was just the second meeting of the year between the teams, as league-champion Boucherie had won the regular season matchup 2-1. From the Bears’ perspective, head coach Adrian Zuyderduyn was proud of the effort his team put forth against their longtime rivals. “Both teams have some very athletic players, and our team had some strong perform-
ances from striker Serena Boulter (Grade 11), goalkeeper Kristzina Breti (Grade 11), defender Emina Arima (Grade 11), and midfielders Sydney Solland and Jacey McQueen (Grade 12s),” said Zuyderduyn. “The rivalry between these two teams always leads to very competitive games, and this one was no exception. Our girls competed hard.” Bernhardsson’s Owls will represent the Okanagan at the B.C. School Sports AAA girls championship May 29 to 31 in Vancouver. “Our goal (at provincials) is to try win our pool and go from there,” said Bernhardsson. “If we play like we can, I think we have a good chance (to win a medal).”

GM and head coach back with Okanagan Rockets
CONTRIBUTED
MACK O’ROURKE (left) will return as head coach of the Okanagan Rockets in 2014-15, while David Michaud will enter his fifth season as the midget team’s GM.
After the most successful season in team history, the Okanagan Rockets will be exercising continuity at both the management and coaching levels. The B.C. Major Midget League club has announced that general manager David Michaud and head coach Mack O’Rourke will be returning for the the 2014 B.C. Major Midget League season. Michaud, the club’s longest serving member will enter his fifth season as the clubs general man-
ger. With Michaud at the helm, the Rockets have posted a 93-44-23 record, good for a .653 winning percentage. O’Rourke returns for his second season after guiding the Rockets to a 32-5-3 regular season, followed by the club’s second B.C championship title. The Rockets then went on to win their first ever medal at the national midget hockey championship, a bronze at the Telus Cup in Moose Jaw. “It’s a great day for
our program to officially announce that Mack is returning to coach our club” said Michaud. “Mack clearly has established himself as one of the games bright young coaches, we are very fortunate to have someone of Mack’s calibre guide our program. Asked if the duo had concerns about trying to duplicate their accomplishments of the previous season and Michaud’s answer was swift. “Not at all, we are both so focused on building on what we were able to accomplish

ter. The Rockets are set to graduate somewhere in the neighborhood of 18 players with a chance of all 20 moving on. “We are hopeful we will have a player or two return,” Michaud added. “They would be the leaders, and the players that help pass that torch to the new group. If we graduate all 20 players, then so be it. To me, that would be as special as the blue banner we got for winning the BCMML. At the end of the day, moving players on to junior hockey is our number one priority.”

after a disappointing semifinal loss against theYorkton Terriers Saturday at Kal Tire Place.
Vipers vanquished at RBC Cup The Vernon Vipers’ quest for a seventh national Junior A hockey championship fell short on Saturday in Vernon. The host Vipers dropped a 6-3 decision to the eventual champion Yorkton Terriers in the semifinal of the The Royal Bank Cup before 2,700 fans at Kal Tire Place. “Not much you can say at this time, it’s disheartening to have our season end like this,” said Vipers’ head coach/GM Jason Williamson. Vipers’ goaltender Austin Smith had been
a rock leading up to the RBC Cup. Something got to him this tournament, as Smith came unglued with a 4.23 goals against average. “I think it was all the wear and tear catching up to him. He played every single minute in playoffs, he has been dealing with a few injuries, it happens,” said Vipers’ goaltender Danny Todosychuk. Smith allowed four goals on eight shots and was relieved by Todosychuk halfway through the second period.
The Vipers included three Kelowna products this season—Brett Mulcahy, Brendan Persley and T.J. Dumonceaux. Mulcahy and Persley are both graduating from the program. Meanwhile, the Terriers went on to win the RBC Cup in dramatic fashion, downing the Carleton Place Canadians 4-3 in overtime Sunday at Kal Tire Place. The Yorkton roster featured two local products and former Okanagan Rockets—Josh Ellis and Colton Procter.

Vertigo a common ailment that brings on feeling of dizziness
I
t is the weirdest feeling—you get dizzy bending forward or looking up to the ceiling, lying down, getting up in the morning, or even rolling over in bed. It’s like the room is spinning and it makes you feel sick. If you experience this, you may be suffering from Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV). It is estimated that one in every five people will develop vertigo in their lifetime. The most common cause of vertigo is a condition in the inner ear known as Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo. BPPV occurs when there is ‘debris,’ or more
KEEPING YOU MOVING
Robina Palmer specifically a calcium carbonate crystal, which has been displaced within the inner ear. The presence of this displaced crystal within the inner ear can disturb one’s balance and equilibrium, and sense of motion. These crystals are naturally occurring in the inner ear, attached to a specific structure, and not ‘free floating.’ There are multiple causes for the crystals to
be displaced but, more often than not, it tends to be spontaneous. Other causes can include trauma (fall, hit to the head, whiplash), high dose antibiotics, age, and extreme changes in barometric pressure. Most of my patients with BPPV report dizziness with certain positions. Most commonly, it is lying flat in bed, rolling over in bed, getting up in the morning, looking up to the ceiling, and bending forward. Treatment for BPPV is very effective. It consists of ‘repositioning’ the crystal in the inner ear. This is done through a series of head and body positions, which will move the crystals away from the sensitive hair
cells within the inner ear. Although BPPV accounts for a large percentage of vertigo, it is not the only cause. Talk to your doctor or physiotherapist certified in vestibular rehabilitation if you have these symptoms, or think you may have BPPV. For more information on dizziness and vertigo, oin us at Sun City Physiotherapy for a free lecture on Thursday, May 29, 6:30 p.m., at our St. Paul Street clinic in downtown Kelowna. Please call 250-8618056 to reserve your seat. Robina Palmer is a registered physiotherapist and co-owner of Sun City Physiotherapy.

TILLIE (MATILDA ELIZABETH) BROWN
July 8, 1926 - May 12, 2014 (87 years) Tillie will be lovingly remembered by her daughters, Shirley Diane Gingras and Joyce Gayle Young; her grandchildren Jacqui and Kelly, Suzanne and Mark, and Robére and Michele; the father of her grandchildren, Leon Gingras; her great grandchildren Luke, Evyn, Caitlin, Lewis, and Oliver; and her multitude of nieces and nephews, including her very close niece, Marilyn Brown. She was predeceased by husband Bud, her son-in-law, Cyril Young, her brothers Arthur, Edward, George, Charlie, Bill, Robert, Albert and her sisters Mary, Lena, and Frieda. Tillie was born near Veregin, SK and made her way to Kelowna in 1952. Tillie graduated from UBC with a BEd in 1975 and taught Grade One for thirty-one years in Kelowna and Kitwanga, BC. She spoke fondly of her students and considered it an honour to be their teacher. Tillie was the people’s Grandma. Her home was always open for a warm welcome and baked treats. She loved the comfort of prayer and being at peace with God. Every week in her later years she hosted Scrabble and cards with her close friends. She loved to travel and spend time at the cabin on the Shuswap. Her passing will leave a big empty space in our lives, but we are comforted by the rich memories we all have of her and by her words, “I have left this earthly existence and have gone into mansions of eternal life. I am at peace with Our Father and have no pain. Be happy for me.” A celebration of Tillie’s life will be held on May 27 at 11:00 am at the Mission Creek Alliance Church, 2091 Springfield Rd, Kelowna, BC. A light lunch will be served following the ceremony. A generous thank you to all the medical professionals for the care they provided to Tillie. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Tillie’s name to the Canadian Diabetes Association, 1589 Sutherland Avenue, Kelowna, BC, V1Y 5Y7. Condolences may be sent to the family through www.valleyviewfuneralhome.com. Arrangements entrusted to Valleyview Funeral Home, 250-765-3147

BIG MAC
Big Mac is a medium size dog with a big personality. He is social, affectionate, loves people, knows some commands...but obedience classes will help him to focus, plus it will be a great time for bonding. He is excitable, active & would best suit a home that is “on the go” (with him)... like running, hiking, biking. If you feel you have the right environment for this great guy, come down and spend some time getting to know him.
The Shelter is in immediate need of
Maddie is a super sweet girl. She showers the staff with attention when it is time for food and water. She loves to be the centre of your affection and a nice lap to curl up in while you relax, read a book or snooze would be right up her alley. Maddie is really gorgeous and can hardly wait to meet you. Please have the staff set up a meet and greet with her...you won’t be disappointed.
ADULT DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR NEUTERED MALE
Axel is a bit older and still getting used to the shelter. It will take him some time to warm up, but it will be worth the effort you put in. Axel so deserves a second chance at finding his “forever home”. If you can find the love and patience in your heart and have the need for a new companion in your home, as the staff to set up a meet and greet with him.

Pippa is absolutely stunning. She is feeling a bit shy at the moment, as the new surroundings have her confused, but with time, love and patience she will warm up. She needs a “forever family” to shower her with love, and if you have a resident cat that would probably work just fine. Please ask to meet with her and you will fall in love with her...we’re positive.

Ewok would love to become a special addition to your home. He is good with other felines and if you have a resident cat that would probably help with his shyness. He warms up quickly as we have seen here at the shelter, so if you have the time and affection to make him the best cat he can be, please ask the staff to set up a one-on-one meet and greet with him. He can hardly wait to meet you.

Shadow is a very large boy who loves life (maybe a bit too much) and is in need of new guardians who can help him with his boundary issues and manners. He is super smart, has amazing potential, is good with dogs, adults and teenage children (doesn’t know his own strength). If you adopt Shadow, you must be committed to ongoing obedience training & lots of exercise to keep him mentally & physically happy. Please ask the staff to set up a meeting with him.

We can change the World…. Grade 5 Girl Zone… Our school sent seven Grade 6 representatives to the “Me to We” event in Vancouver in the fall. We were so impressed with the message, “We Can Change the World,” that we wanted to assist a widowed grandmother with three dependents in Uganda operating a small farm. Our idea was to sell paper animals (cows, pigs, goats and chicks) to raise money towards her farm. Our school raised $750.00 over one month and hundreds of paper animals lined our hallways! This money will help to expand her egg farm by providing more chickens, feed and veterinary care. We are so happy that we could make a difference!
At Peachland Elementary the grade five girls have been participating in a lunch hour program called Girl Zone with the resource teacher Dana Rae Chowdury. In this program students are developing positive friendship skills and conflict resolution strategies, all with a dash of female empowerment! The program runs on Wednesdays until the end of the school year.

AquaVan Our PAC provided many fun and educational opportunities for our students this year, some of which included: swimming lessons for primary students, bowling for intermediates, as well as a visit from the Vancouver Aquarium in April! The AquaVan is a mobile, “hands-on” program that travels to schools throughout B.C. to learn about marine ocean life. Here are some comments our students shared:
Each spring, our school hosts an “Appreciation Event” to thank our parent and community volunteers for all their time and effort helping throughout the year on PAC, One-to One Reading, fieldtrips and pizza days, just to name a few… The event “I liked hearing inside the Orca whale’s jaw. Did includes refreshments, dessert and a talent show. This year the event was themed: “Vegas Live!” Each performer walked along the red velvet carpet to showcase their you know that sperm whales are the loudest whales singing, dancing, gymnastic and other awesome acts. Our principal, Mr. Guignard, in the ocean?” Chevy…Kindergarten the YPT (Youth Partnership Team consisting of intermediate students) and Mrs. “I liked looking at all those Frey’s Grade 6 class worked very hard to make this a talent show one that no one animals that live in the will ever forget! ocean…” Naomi – Kindergarten

“I liked seeing the live sea anemone because I hadn’t seen one before. Its tentacles were purple!” Ryley… grade 3
Education Week Author Visit EARTH DAY Shane Peacock Canadian author Shane Peacock’s presentation to our Grade 5 and 6 students and many other schools in the district at the Kelowna Community Theatre was a great success this spring! The students enjoyed his presentation highlighting many of the books he has written and learned how challenging and rewarding the job of an author is!
On Earth Day, Mrs. Poole’s Kindergarten class made beautiful Earth plates reminding us of what we can do to make the world a better place…. “We can take care of Earth by recycling paper stuff.” Rosalee, Kindergarten “We can take care of Earth by planting trees.” Jak, Kindergarten
