Killer fails in appeal to overturn conviction
Kathy Michaels
STAFF REPORTER
A Kelowna man convicted of fatally shooting a teen at a 2007 grad party has failed in another attempt to have his conviction overturned. In an appeal document released Thursday, Trevor Shannon argued the trial judge erred in his instruction to the jury and that’s what led to his second degree murder conviction. The court of appeal didn’t find merit in the application and its reasons were outlined in the online document. Shannon, who was 23-years-old on April 8, 2007, went to the high school party with friends, where they were to meet one of the group’s girlfriends. Their arrival wasn’t well received and a confrontation broke out between one of Shannon’s friends and a belligerent partygoer. That partygoer pulled a knife and behaved in a menacing way. Shannon pulled out his gun, ending the confrontation. As party attendees filtered outside the house following the incident, Evan Wilkes started to taunt Shannon about bringing a gun to the party and things quickly spiralled out of control. “And I was tryin’ to ignore this kid right? He keeps goin’. He keeps on. And I seen him and I think they’re passin’ bear
spray and shit and I am like what the f$%$, like are they actually gonna try to start some shit?” reads a transcript of Shannon’s statement to police. “And then, and the kid, he kept on, kept on and I was like, ‘Buddy honestly just don’t say one more word man.…One more word, I dare you buddy, just say one more word.’”
‘‘
I DARE YOU BUDDY, JUST SAY ONE MORE WORD. Trevor Shannon
Wilkes kept taunting and Shannon said he went up to him and hit him with the gun and it went off. “So it musta like, it musta got him in the back of the head or sumpin’, like I don’t know what happened but all I know and I di… I was fu… like what the f$%$ and he hit the ground. I thought I knocked him unconscious,” said Shannon. Wilkes died a few days after the shot to the head from pneumonia, a complication of the injury. Shannon was initially convicted of second degree murder in September 2008. He successfully appealed that conviction and was granted a new trial. He was convicted again in June 2012 and
sentenced to life in prison with no eligibility for parole for 10 years. The basis for the latest appeal was that the judge erred by failing to instruct the jury to consider self defence, by failing to tell the jury to consider intoxication and by incorrectly instructing the jury about what was the unlawful act that could lead to a finding of culpable homicide as a component of a murder conviction. Justice John Hall wrote there was not enough evidence to require an instruction to the jury on self-defence, especially given that Shannon’s lawyer didn’t express any wish to have that defence put to the jury. “There was no air of reality requiring the judge to instruct on an intoxication defence,” Hall wrote. “Regarding the instruction about the unlawful act of firing the gun, the judge clearly put to the jury the possibility of accident which would result in a verdict of manslaughter.” The jury would not have been left in any confusion about the verdicts open to them, he said. “There was, however, from the direction of the bullet path through the skull and the reaction of the appellant at the scene, a measure of evidentiary support for the lesser included verdict of manslaughter. The path to this verdict was accident.”

Cyclists ‘clotheslined’ by fire hose Kathy Michaels STAFF REPORTER
The arrival of firefighters is often a sign of impending relief, but this weekend a few Kelowna
cyclists saw the downside of the usually heroic crew. According to the Kelowna RCMP, a loose hose created a bit of chaos at the intersection of Abbott Street and Harvey
Avenue, when it came off a Kelowna Fire Department truck en route to an emergency call at Leon Avenue. “(The hose) got snagged on a lamppost,
then the fire truck turned at the intersection, and it clotheslined some cyclists,” said Const. Kris

Rail trail plan faces potential roadblock in North Okanagan Richard Rolke CONTRIBUTOR
A First Nations’ land claim could create uncertainty for a proposed Okanagan rail trail. The Okanagan Indian Band is asking the federal government to purchase the Kalamalka Lake portion of the abandoned rail line for inclusion in its reserve. “That rail bed is part of the Commonage claim,” said Chief Byron Louis. “The whole area is up for negotiation.” Canadian National is currently going through an abandonment process for the rail line and the Okanagan Rail Trail Society is urging all levels of government to purchase the land for a recreational corridor. If the Kalamalka Lake portion was added to the Okanagan Indian Reserve, Louis isn’t sure if a trail would fit into the band’s long-term goals. “We would look at what we could do with it. The band would sit down and make a decision,” he said. The Okanagan Rail Trail Society became aware of the band’s request to Ottawa Monday. “It wasn’t expected but it’s not surprising they would claim it,” said Duane Thomson, a society director and retired history professor. “If something couldn’t be negotiated with the band, this would present a difficulty. But it’s not to say it (reserve land) would be insurmountable. It wouldn’t shut off entirely because there’s the old
highway along the Kalamalka Lake section.” Under CN’s abandonment process, the federal government has until today to decide if it will purchase the rail line. If it does not, the provincial government has 30 days to make an acquisition, followed by local government having a 30-day period to buy the land. “We will see where it goes,” said Thomson of the band’s actions.
‘‘
THAT RAIL BED IS PART OF THE COMMONAGE CLAIM. Chief Byron Louis
The Commonage reserve was established for the Okanagan Indian Band in 1877, but soon after, the land was removed and sold to non-native settlers. “The government illegally took the reserve away,” said Louis. “Our entitlement to the Commonage land remains and the federal government cannot simply ignore our unresolved claim to our ancestral lands.” Louis says while a process for negotiations was created, the federal government walked away from the table. “It’s been like trying to pull teeth to get this resolved. It falls in the court of the federal government,” he said.

WESTSIDE DAZE PARADE… Dance City Academy dancers perform for the Westside Daze parade crowd Saturday morning on Old Okanagan Highway.
Lt-gov’s wine award gala comes to Kelowna There will be a distinctly western cowboy flavour to the 2014 Lieutenant-Governor’s Awards for Excellence in B.C. Wines gala ball this year. A fundraiser for the Government House Foundation, the gala will take place Friday, July 25, at the Laurel Packinghouse in Kelowna. The formal black-tie affair will, this year, be opened up to elegant cowboy and cowgirl attire, a reflection of the awards banquet taking place in the Interior rather than its customary Lower Mainland or Victoria location. Joe Gardner, a trustee for the Government House Foundation, said in past years, the lieutenant-governor, who is currently Nicola Valley rancher Judith Guichon, would visit each win-
ery and present the award plaque to the winner, which he called a prestigious recognition for any winery. “We decided a change of pace might help this year by combining the awards wine tour with a formal gala that could take place outside Vancouver or Victoria,” said Gardner. “So we thought we would try holding it in Kelowna this year.” Twelve wines have been chosen this year to receive Lieutenant Governor’s Awards for Excellence (see sidebar below for winners). It was the largest competition in the 12-year history of the awards, with 436 wines submitted from 119 wineries across the province. Gardner said beyond honouring the wines, his hope in bringing the gala to the Interior is that it will
help shine a light on the role of the lieutenant-governor and Government House where she lives in Victoria. “People often will go to Government House in Victoria as it is sort of a tourist thing. But for us, in the Interior, we don’t hear much about it. We might go to the provincial museum instead,” he said. “We want to raise the profile of Government House because it continues to be an important part of our heritage.” B.C.’s lieutenant-governor is appointed to be the Queen’s representative in B.C. and Guichon will make a visit to England during her time in office. The lieutenent-governor traditionally reads the government’s Throne Speech and can open and close the legislative session along with various
other functions. “Our government cannot operate without a lieutenant-governor in place,” said Gardner. Maintenance of Government House is paid for by the province, while the foundation helps raise money for programs the lieutenant-governor carries out, such as the wine awards. Other programs include: • Write To Read, a project putting libraries in remote B.C. communities • Awards for literary excellence • Sing Me A Song, a program encouraging British Columbians to celebrate their community for Canada’s 150th birthday • The Stewards of the Future conference • Enhancement of Government House and its gardens.

dent and general manager of the Douglas Lake Cattle Company, said his desire to volunteer with the Government House Foundation has come with age and perspective. “I guess I’m 68 years of age now and I started to think about things such as institutions like this and how important they are to carry on,” he said. He hopes Interior residents attend the gala and other wine tour events planned for July 24 to 26, and take up the same sense of ownership Victoria residents might feel towards Government House.

Kelowna fans of Heart who went to the band’s concert at Prospera Place on Saturday night probably came out thinking they had just been to a Led Zeppelin tribute. Not that the crowd filing out of Prospera was complaining, but Nancy and Ann Wilson, the sister tandem behind Heart, dedicated the second half of their show to covering seven Led Zep tunes. Joined on stage by drummer Jason Bonham, son of the late Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, Heart played some recognizable tunes from the British rock band’s past, such as the over-indulgent Kashmir, Immigrant Song and Battle of Evermore, and some others from deep in the Led Zep catalogue. Heart ended the concert with a stirring rendition of Stairway To Heaven, joined on stage by the Okanagan Singers, made up of members of the Okanagan Festival Choir and Okanagan Spectrum Singers. Heart’s affinity for Led Zeppelin should not come as a surprise since the band has been recording the iconic band’s tunes since back in the 1980s, and were chosen to sing a rousing version of Stair-
way at the Kennedy Centre Honours recognition for the group in December 2012. But with an extensive musical catalogue of their own, it seemed a little odd to dedicate the entire second half of their concert to Zeppelin tunes. The first half of the concert saw the band cover many of its big hits, with Ann Wilson showing that she still has the vocal pipes, with her version of Alone, a ballad hit for the group, drawing a standing ovation. Heart rolled off many other familiar tunes— Barracuda, Heartless, Little Queen, What About Love, These Dreams, Magic Man and Crazy On You—although both the band’s songs and the crowd showed their age by generating little buzz as the concert wound through the opening set. Also included in the opening set was an old Paul McCartney song from his seminal Band On The Run album of the early 1970s, Let Me Roll It, which again seemed to be an odd choice other than perhaps paying homage to the influence of McCartney on the Wilson sisters’ musical inspiration, the legacy of which culminated last year with Heart being inducted into the Rock’n Roll Hall of Fame.

cident or the injured females,” said deputy fire chief Lou Wilde. Once the firefighters made it to their initial destination, however, they discovered they were missing an integral part of their gear and that led them back on the path they’d just travelled. “When the fire engine returned to the corner of Abbott Street and Harvey Avenue, the firefighters found two females with minor leg injuries,” said Wilde.
“Firefighters attended to the injured ladies and called for B.C. Ambulance and the RCMP.” The two injured women were transported to Kelowna General Hospital by ambulance for further assessment and treatment. No serious injuries were reported. The Kelowna Fire Department and the City of Kelowna’s safety officer are conducting a formal investigation of the incident to determine cause.

Canada is a place to call home
A
s Canadians gather today to celebrate Canada’s 147th birthday, it’s worth noting this country’s place in the world. While not a superpower or a Third World nation, on the whole the quality of life afforded most Canadians is the envy of many who live elsewhere. Sure, there are places where more people have more money, where the sun shines longer and the thermometer does not dip into the depths of deep freeze in
the winter. There are places where people do business at a snappier pace, where people dress better, eat better and elect governments intent on dominating other countries with their economic and military might. And, yes, we have our own problems here at home. For some, the promise that is Canada has not come to pass. They need a roof over their heads and food in their bellies. We could treat each other better and share more of what
we have. But while that just makes us just like any other country, it should never be accepted as justification not to help. And in Canada, it seldom is. This country has developed a reputation for helping, whether it be in conflicts abroad or with humanitarian aid. Canada is a land of compassionate, resourceful and kind people, ready to lend a hand when needed and not expect payback. Some have said in re-
cent years we’ve taken on unwelcome traits more similar to our neighbours to the south— and that’s not a good thing. But Canadians continue to possess a quality not always found elsewhere—as a nation we care about others. And, for the most part, we do something about it. So today, look around, not just at the scenery but at the people. Think of your community and ask yourself, is there any other country you’d rather call home?

Life in B.C. after the Supreme Court Tsilhqot’in decision
T
he Supreme Court of Canada’s landmark decision on aboriginal title held by the Tsilhqot’in Nation leaves many questions to be answered. Perhaps the biggest is this: Will British Columbia exist as we know it today by the end of this century? Or will it devolve into dozens of semi-autonomous regions, through treaties or similar court actions, as the only Canadian province that never completed historic treaties?
The Tsilhqot’in decision appears to uphold the key finding of the 2007 trial, that 1,700 square kilometres of the Nemiah Valley west of WilTom liams Lake are essenFletcher tially owned by the people who occupied it hundreds if not thousands of years ago. It’s not quite ownership. Federal and provincial jurisdiction still applies, and their authority varies with the strength of the aboriginal title claim. Chief Justice Beverley McLach-
VICTORIA VIEWS
lin ruled that the province overstepped its authority by issuing logging permits in the valley in 1983. McLachlin noted that lawyers for B.C. first argued that the logging was to control mountain pine beetle, then dropped that argument in its first appeal. She also upheld the decision of the trial judge, one-time NDP leadership contender David Vickers, who rejected B.C.’s position that the economic value of the timber to the province overrode the then-vaguely defined aboriginal title. Here’s McLachlin’s definition: “The nature of aboriginal title is that it confers on the group that holds it the exclusive right to decide how
land is used and the right to benefit from those uses, subject to the restriction that the uses must be consistent with the group nature of the interest and the enjoyment of the land by future generations.” That’s not land ownership in the fee-simple sense of the term. It locks in communal ownership, which I and many others have argued is at the root of the poverty seen in many aboriginal communities. Another big question: Is there any future for B.C.’s 20-year-old treaty process, or will this precedent-setting case send more First Nations to court, or to the barricades as the Tsilhqot’in did on a logging road in 1983?
One of the unique advantages that have emerged from the handful of modern treaties in B.C. is that aboriginal communities have more op- p tions in land ownership. By voluntary agreement, they can convert land i to fee-simple ownership, making it t available for mortgage or sale. Mod- k ern treaty holders also get out from a under the federal Indian Act, which h remains in force despite this latest de- c cision. w One of the big questions asked in d the days after the Tsilhqot’in decision a was this: Is the Northern Gateway t

Recycling rules ‘ridiculous and insulting’ To the editor: What is this garbage about recycling? I received a handy little recycling guide in the mail and saw the headline, “Recycle More” and got quite excited. Then I read it. So let me get this straight; I can recycle the outer sleeve of my cheese slices but not the individual wrap on each piece of cheese? My blue ‘recycling bags’ are in fact not recyclable. My polystyrene meat trays are recycling but not
the little absorbent pad that sits under the meat. My grocery bags that are made of plastic, my plastic wrap and my bubble wrap are not recyclable anymore even though they have been for 50 years. My Ziplock bags are now all of a sudden not recyclable. They’re made of 100 per cent plastic— even the zipper. My Tetra Paks, with the waxy coating are recycling but the little plastic straw is not. Frozen juice containers, even with the metal
lids, are recyclable but not the cardboard soup bowls with metal lids. Tin cans are but lids have to be attached. Plastic-coated frozen food packages are recyclable even if plastic coated . I counted 28 items with an ‘X’ next to them which means that they are not recyclable and 27 items with a check mark which means that they are recyclable. So only 50 per cent of our garbage can go into the blue bins and the rest must be sorted through and divided up
into separate piles. Really? If they think that the general public is going to make a career out of sorting out their recycling like this they must be from Mars. This is merely going to create more garbage which is obviously their goal. How utterly ridiculous and absolutely insulting. This seems like yet another incredible waste of taxpayers’ money. If I wasn’t so livid about our government already, I may have been able to chuckle about this but, this is insane.

I would have to take a day off work to drive down to the depot to sort out my recycling when all along I was under the assumption that our taxes were taking care of this. Well, you know what they say about never assuming? I have to go now, and separate my huge bag of multi-coloured styrofoam peanuts because they will only accept white and coloured separately—yeah right. Denise Brass, Kelowna

QUALITY
To the editor: In his letter: World is Beating a Path to Our Shores For Oil, Mr. Brian Mellis commented that the facts presented in Ms. Varga’s letter (Pipeline Decision By Feds Wrong Headed, June 20 Capital News) were based on paranoia. In another of his observations he noticed that a majority of Canadians are being “forced” to watch on the news the chanting and drum beating groups of protesters who oppose the Northern Gateway project. I am not sure if Mellis is aware that, not only did he insult the intelligence of Ms. Varga’s well re-
searched letter, but he also insulted the First Nations people who choose to protest peacefully during drum beating ceremonies as it is in their tradition to protest with wisdom and peace instead of violence. Not all people are honest in their intentions, Mr. Mellis, and therefore it is crucial to question those whose actions could lead to disastrous outcomes. It should be mandatory for everyone, those who are in the process of planning the natural gas project (or any other projects) and those affected by it, to ask as many “what if” questions as possible. Mr. Mellis also seems
to have a lot of faith in human technological advances, he even went as far as to label them as “quantum leaps in technology” which, in my opinion, is an exaggeration. Unfortunately, when humans think with their narcissistic mind, their illusionary image of themselves being represented by “the greatest thing that ever happened to Earth” gets in their way of thinking objectively. To give you an example, when the Deepwater Horizon explosion occurred in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010, our highly educated and technological advanced humans
were called in to take care of the mess that they themselves created. With the help of their brilliant minds they covered the oil slick with enough Corexit dispersant and waited until the whole mess disappeared to the bottom of the sea. Were “what if” questions asked before the DH drilling project went ahead?… Mr. Mellis, it is true that the majority of Canadians have been silent on many projects that our talented scientists with the support of our government have managed to get approved, but in no way that they have ever been silenced to speak.

pipeline project dead? None of the aboriginal communities along the pipeline route has this kind of declared aboriginal title. Few if any would have a similar strength of claim as the Tsilhqot’in, who fought a small war to defend their territory from a wave of gold seekers in the 1860s. One that does is the Haida Nation, whose oc7cupation of a beautiful
group of islands was long defended militarily, and never challenged by any other aboriginal group. Among others, the Haida Nation was represented in the Tsilhqot’in case as interveners. Council of the Haida Nation president Peter Lantin said after the decision that his team is preparing its own aboriginal title case for trial. Few doubt that this assertion of title will be suc-
cessful, either by negotiation or court ruling. But there is a unique aspect to the Haida claim that would set another precedent. They claim title to the ocean around Haida Gwaii, a challenge to anyone wishing to sail tankers through. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

Taking that next step in caring for an aging parent W
ANNUAL GARAGE SALE
SENIORS’ CONCERNS
Marjorie Horne coming more aware has its own timing, profound in its perfection that has nothing to do with our personal preferences. Insight only ever comes from totally living your own experience and being guided by your own heart.” I have now moved mom into being cared for by others until she is ready to take her final passage. It has seemed like an agonizing process to get to where I could let go of the vision that I had created in my mind of keeping her with me until the end. She has her own intricate life process to follow and only she is in charge of how that will unfold. The question was becoming: What was my life journey and how could I make a decision that in a sense put myself first and released this overwhelming sense of responsibility that I felt for caring for my mother? This was a responsibility that had started, not just in these aging years, but when I was only 10 and her mental health became tortured by depression and anxiety. Two souls entwined together, as caregiving became my role at an age that was much too early to take on. And so, yet another transition unfolds. Once the difficult decision and arrangements were made to move mom, I felt a great sense of relief. My husband and I would look at each other over the days that followed with a twinkle in our eyes, sensing the anticipation of having a more normal life togeth-

er again. Other nights I would leave his presence and go into the quietness of a bath to be alone, where the tears freely flowed as I thought of letting mom go and felt the guilt and sadness that were also ever present. It wasn’t what I had planned, but then I really never knew what the plan was. I entered willingly, but had created my own ending that felt comfortable and right for me. Becoming attached to an idea always brings emotional difficulty. We really have no control and the pain of letting go of an assumption that we do, is what really causes the pain. Adapting to this external change will take time. I do feel like I have abandoned her and the emptiness of the house is surprisingly difficult. It is hard to relax and just do things for myself. It is hard to leave her after my visits, wondering if she will be taken care of properly. So I go back to the well.
As Ma Deva Padma goes on to say, “The well symbolizes the place within each of us that is a deep and ever-present source of renewal, its serene depths uncorrupted by the personality. It is the source from which intuitive knowledge springs. Wisdom is drawn out of its depths, from the darkness of the unconscious into the light of understanding. In order to receive the refreshing benefits of the well, you must dive deep, turning your attention inward and bypassing external influences. Approaching the heart of wisdom requires humility: You must go naked, carrying no props for the ego, wearing no masks of persona; unencumbered by the weight of fears or doubts, you can plunge in.” It is sometimes cold, this water, but relaxing until the warmth comes seems to be called for. As I move forward, this past year of experience will forever be treasured for all of the gifts I have received, the insights that I still am learning about

hen I jumped into the caregiving role of looking after my 92-yearold mom in my own home last year, it was simply a leap of faith. I hadn’t thought at length about the decision, but acted more on intuition that it was what I needed to do. I have shared much of the journey with you and all that I have been learning as I ventured along the emotional and physical process of caregiving as the weeks unfolded into months and the months into a full year. I have been witness to many clients who are stepping into the decision of making a change away from a full-time caregiving role of a loved one and considering placement into outside care. It is always easy to see in another that this is wise and that there is no need for guilt, as you have watched the loving attention that has been so freely given from a son or daughter to a parent or from one spouse to another. But as with most experiences, when you are walking in the shoes yourself, the emotions and thoughts that are present in your body, mind and spirit feel all too real and overwhelming. As the day-to-day stress of managing the ever increasing needs of caring for my mom began to take a toll on my own health, I was faced with diving deep into the well of my own psyche to understand why I struggled so with letting her go. Ma Deva Padma writes in the Tao Oracle: An Illuminated New Approach to the I Ching about this: “The journey toward self-knowledge requires that we willingly enter the darkness of uncertainty. Be-

CENTRAL OKANAGAN ▼ WINSOME HILL
home Benefits of ‘green’ building now evident Central Okanagan launches June 19, 2014!
The new Home section in the Capital News will offer both home buyers and sellers a feature look at local real estate developments in Kelowna, from new homes to town homes to condominiums. Our weekly section will offer insights into what housing developments are offering for features and new energy saving technologies, ideas on how to get the biggest bang for your buck in acquiring and selling housing properties and shine a light on the most recent changes impacting the Central Okanagan real estate industry from Peachland to Lake Country. The real estate market doesn’t end with the housing transaction though. New homebuyers will be looking to landscape their yard, build a fence and furnish their home inside and out. The Home section will provide readers with ideas on creating that backyard that is the envy of the neighbourhood or where to find the best dining room table to accommodate the family when they are home for the holidays. Our readers will be kept up to date on the latest trends from kitchens to bathrooms, as well as the latest colours and styles. The Capital News will be the best place to find that new house you have always been dreaming about and what you will need to make it a Home.
From the ground up: Mission Group looks to build sustainable communities. Michael Herhaus wasn’t thinking about the benefits of buying a home constructed to Built Green standards. But since purchasing his Winsome Hill home in Kelowna, Herhaus has come to appreciate those benefits. “I was not aware that it was Built Green—that wasn’t something I was thinking about,” said Herhaus. Be also wasn’t looking to buy pre-sale, either, having heard past horror stories about that process. But his realtor knew Mission Group, so Herhaus said they were the only builder he would buy from pre-sale. There’s a lot of industry jargon out there that makes it confusing for homeowners to know what they’re getting, but when Herhaus moved into his Winsome Hill townhome, there were differences he readily noticed in his home. “It’s funny. I noticed that I had to alternate my cleaning schedule from top to bottom because I was throwing cleaning supplies in the garbage…there was no dust,” Herhaus recalled—and he’s not alone. George and Arlene live at Winsome Hill, and of their home buying experience, George said: “In our first brand new home, we could smell the formaldehyde in the carpet and you could smell the paint fumes. When we did our first walk through of this home, you couldn’t smell anything. There’s also a lot less dust. It feels a lot cleaner in this new home.” What these folks are experiencing are benefits of Built Green’s holistic approach to building. Every sustainability program is different and has different areas of focus. Built Green Canada recognizes energy as a vital component in residential construction and ownership. It moves beyond this to include electrical efficiency, water efficiency, indoor air quality, resource use and overall environmental impact. An advanced building technologies approach with a view that the home works as a system or a sum of its parts. On paper, these words mean only so much to the consumer, but in practice it’s simple— lower bills, smaller environmental footprint, an increased quality of living. Herhaus notes that his three-storey, 1,460 square-foot home has almost no temperature variation between the floors, which he attributes to great insulation. While the insulation plays a part, this is where Built Green sees the “house as a system” performing for its residents. The reduced dust, the better air quality, the con-

These areas feed into others and more benefits become apparent to the homeowner. Herhaus was also surprised that he had only one bill—electric power. This includes heating, cooling, hot water, and electric power, yet it averages only $72 per month.

“At Mission Group, we take an Inspired Green approach with all of our new home communities. This means that we look for ways to minimize the environment impact in every aspect of our work,” said JoAnne Adamson, director of sales for Mission Group Homes. “We start with the big picture, such as land use and protecting the site’s natural processes. Our attention extends all the way down to details like the choice of non off-gassing interior finishes, like flooring and paint.” Built Green builders commit to changing their practices across the board; they have to walk the enviro-friendly talk, which Mission Group has done in spades. Since they joined Built Green in 2008, they’ve completed 214 homes in three Built Green Gold certified communities—Sage at Auguston, Amberhill and Winsome Hill. Environmental leadership is about more than a few changes in practice. It takes vision and commitment, which, from the build site up, Mission Group continues to build into their legacy. For homeowners like Herhaus or George and Arlene, this vision transformed into their very own healthy homes and allowed them the well-being of knowing they have minimal impact on the environment. It’s one community at a time, but Mission Group wants to make a difference.

Rockets send two up in NHL draft
Two members of the Kelowna Rockets were drafted by NHL teams on the weekend at the 2014 NHL Entry Draft in Philadephia. Justin Kirkland was selected in the third round (62nd overall) by the Nashville Predators while Rourke Chartier was chosen by the San Jose Sharks in the 5th round (149th overall). Kirkland, a 17-year old native of Camrose, is coming off his first full season with the Rockets. As a rookie the 6-foot3 forward was eighth in WHL rookie scoring with 17 goals, 31 assists and 48 points in 68 games. He was also plus-23 on the season. Kirkland was in attendance when he was drafted by Nashville, the same team that selected former Rockets captain Colton Sissons as well as Rockets alumni Shea Weber. “What a surreal day for myself and my family,” said Kirkland. “I’m very proud to be selected by Nashville. This is a dream come true.” A couple of rounds later it was time for second year forward Chartier to hear his name
players that were selected in the 2014 NHL Draft at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. Nine of the WHL players selected in the draft were chosen in the first round, including four players selected among the Top 10. Sam Reinhart of the Kootenay Ice was the first WHL player selected in the 2014 NHL Draft, chosen by the Buffalo Sabres with the second overall pick. Reinhart, a product of Vancouver, BC, becomes the highest drafted player in Kootenay Ice franchise history, and just the third Ice player to be chosen in the first round of the NHL draft. The Vancouver Canucks selected Jake Virtanen of the Calgary Hitmen with the sixth overall selection of the draft.

Q
My mom is having health issues and the public health nurses ( Interior Health) come in to help her once per day. I am grateful for the help but mom needs more time and other services that the Interior Health is unable to provide and I am not comfortable doing personal care for my mother. Does Nurse Next Door work alongside the public system.
A
Absolutely ! Healthcare is complex and takes allot of resources to work effectively. For healthcare to exist far into the future, healthcare works best when divided between, public, private and family. The public system cannot sustain the demands of the demographics indefinitely. Family also has limitations and may not have the knowledge to be fully responsible for the more complex health issues that your mother maybe facing. Private home care is there to help in situations that the public health care is unable to. Family may also be unable or find it difficult to provide the necessary care or support due to their own personal commitments. Nurse Next Door will work with you, your mom, and the Interior Health nurses to develop the best plan of care for your family. Nurse Next Door can help with everything related to keeping your mom in her home for as long as she wishes. Public home care has limitations to what it can do, for example public home care can warm up a meal in the microwave, Nurse Next Door can plan the meal specifically to your moms likes and nutritional needs. The care giver can grocery shop , prepare the meal and clean up for as many days as needed . Nurse Next Door can do what Interior Health can do. In addition Nurse Next Door has the time and ability to complete all the tasks that you would want done for your mother given the time. Such tasks include laundry, cleaning ,shopping, appointments, errands and personal care ,as well as taking care of pets . Each agency has its strengths and Nurse Next Door can work with all parties involved to get the most out of each system, to enable your mom to remain independent in her home for as long as she can.

Q A
What can hearing aids do?
When a person has hearing loss, soft consonants such as ‘s’, ‘f’, ‘th’ and ‘sh’ can be very difficult to understand. Hearing aids amplify the soft speech sounds which improves our ability to have conversations. With today’s modern technology we can “tell” the hearing aids to amplify certain frequencies more than others to give the most help just where it’s needed. They will also enable you to hear voices more clearly when there is background noise. Early detection is key to finding the right solution so you can stay connected to the sounds around you. Call Connect Hearing today to book your complimentary hearing test and consultation.
Q A
Verico Compass Mortgage Group Now that Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) has eliminated its program for second homes, what does this mean Canadians?
Last month CMHC announced they would be eliminating their program for “second homes”. This program would allow people to buy a second home with as little as 5% down payment. Examples of these types of purchases would be vacation cottages/homes, university homes for children, or even purchasing another residence when traveling extensive distances for work. Even though CMHC eliminated their second home program, there are 2 other private insurers in Canada that will still allow a second home purchase with as little as 5% down payment. They are Genworth and Canada Guaranty. Hopefully they don’t follow in CMHC’s footsteps, but for the foreseeable future, it looks like the program his here to stay. It is an excellent option for Canadians and most certainly should be made available.
Should you have any questions, always remember...advice is free ;-).

For the second straight night the Kelowna Falcons received a terrific game from their starting pitcher, but couldn’t find enough offensive support to get into the win column. Jeremy Newton threw seven solid innings in Bellingham on Sunday afternoon, allowed two runs on five hits as the Falcons fell 2-1 to the Bells in the series finale. He struck out two and didn’t issue a walk. Newton made just two mistakes on Sunday, giving up a lead-off homer in the second to Danny Miller and a lead-off double in the sixth, which led to the game winning run. The Falcons scored their lone run in the eighth as Brandon Grimsley knocked in Tyler Brown for his fourth RBI of the season. Offensively the Falcons were outhit 6-5 with Grimsley leading the way with a pair of hits. The Falcons have now lost six straight after getting swept in back to back series. The team’s road trip continues as they are now in Bend to meet the Bend Elks, who are winners of six in a row.

Garlic goes gourmet on a budget Jennifer Smith STAFF REPORTER
You pick it, you pay less and you help revolutionize the garlic industry in the process. Okanagan Gourmet Garlic Farm is changing the way food-conscious consumers look at the staple spice. Where garlic farmers generally pick their bulbs, tie up a bunch of ten and hang them to dry for a month to cure, the U-Pick farm has decided to abridge the process with the same shade sheets once used for ginseng crops. “We cut the tops off in the field, then the tractor comes along and lifts the bulb, breaking all the roots, and then it sits under a shade cloth in the very, very hot Kelowna weather,” explained Bill Campbell, owner of Okanagan Gourmet Garlic. Up until December, Campbell worked for Skype as the point-person overseeing software testers from South America. He’s operated the Glenmore-based garlic farm for four years and said the U-Pick, field-drying concept is part of what enables him to produce a higher quality product and bring it to market. “You can only sell so much garlic at certain prices in the supermarkets and people don’t like all of my prices; so you come up and pick it yourself, and clean it yourself, and you can have it for half the price,” he said. A self-professed foodie, Campbell has always grown garlic in his backyard. When he moved to the Okanagan, he assessed the state of the inNow you can use the Internet to add your own non-profit event to the Capital News Stuff to Do.

BUSINESS
Getting your PST refunds and securing your exemptions N
ow that PST is back in full force in B.C., there are some business cases whereby you can apply for a refund of PST paid on business expenses. You can also apply for a refund of PST paid prior to July 1, 2010. You have four years to apply for a refund of your PST paid. There are specific
BEHIND THE COUNTER
Gabriele Banka application forms for the following types of business cases; a motor
vehicle or a multi-jurisdictional vehicle, PAC-funded purchases, production machinery and equipment, qualifying farmers, aquaculturists and fishers. If your refund type does not fall into one of these categories, there is also a general refund application. An example of when you might use the gener-
X CROSSWORD
al application is when you buy items in B.C. and pay the PST on them but the items are being used out of the province. If they are being resold out of the province, you can apply for a PST exemption, but if you are using them out of province in your own business, then you are able to apply for a refund of the PST. The refund application is a very detailed application and several documents are required in order to process the application. For example, if you are a farmer who owns farm land, you will need to provide a copy of your property assessment notice as well as your B.C. Farmer Identity Card. You will also need to detail your purchases on a worksheet and provide copies of all your invoices that show a description of the items purchased, name of the seller and the
purchase price and provide a total of the PST that you wish to have refunded. You can use an excel worksheet for this purpose, or you can use the worksheet available from the government of BC website. There are also variations of farmer, such as a beekeeper, or mushroom, egg, hog, poultry, rabbit or fur farmers, first nations farmers, and out of province farmers. The people who participate in these farming variations will also be required to prove the amount of gross income earned from your specific farming activity and will not be able to apply for a refund unless this income exceeds a certain threshold tied to the type of farming business. Currently when the government of B.C. receives the application, you can expect to receive an email or letter requesting more information in
approximately four to six weeks. Currently there doesn’t appear to be any relationship between the amount of PST refund and the amount of extra detail asked for. It appears that the same scrutiny is used on a file whether the refund is $100 or $1,000 which I guess is our tax dollars at work. However, the listing and the copying of the invoices could be a time consuming task and it is up to the business owner to decide whether they are able to complete the application themselves or to pay someone to complete it for them. Exemptions are available for goods purchased for resale or lease including software or telecommunications services as well as for goods that are going to be incorporated into an item that well be sold. In order for a business to provide
an exemption to another business, the PST number of the purchaser must be acquired. You can verify PST numbers on-line at https://www.etax.gov. bc.ca/btp/eservicesReg/_/ If you do not have a PST number, you will need to fill out an exemption certificate, available for gifting a vehicle, children’s clothing and footwear, purchase of a vehicle or aircraft for use outside of B.C., multi-jurisdictional vehicle, self-assessment on software, commercial fisher, aquaculturist, farmer, out of province delivery, general, contractor, production machinery and equipment, and subcontractor. If you need more information, visit the B.C. provincial sales tax website at: http://www2. gov.bc.ca/gov/topic. page?id=589542DDDB6347F7A7C80C1783F4BA6D.

LOUIS
ID#336428
KITTEN DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR NEUTERED MALE
Louis is a pretty sweet little guy. He would love to find a family that is into playing and cuddling and just generally paying attention to their pets. Since being at the shelter he has found a way to entertain all the staff, he is housetrained and gets along with other cats. If you feel you have the ideal ‘forever’ home for Louis, as the staff to set up a meet and greet with him.
103 - 1889 Springfield Rd. 860-2346 Store Hours: M - S 8:30 - 5:30 Sunday 10:00 - 4:00
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.
ADULT HAVANESE X SPAYED FEMALE
Ellie definitely a love bug and is so needing a home where she can show her devotion. She is shy at first, but once she understands that you will not hurt her, she will shower you with love and affection. This little girl has a place in her heart for you...do you have a place for her? She is OK with other dogs, so a resident companion might be nice. Please ask the staff to set up a meet and greet with her...you won’t be disappointed.
RYLANCE
LEWY
ID#333731
Rylance is a very relaxed girl. She loves to look out the window and watch the cars and birds go by. She is a bit shy right now, but with time, love and lots of attention she will become your forever companion. She is good with other cats and can hardly wait to meet you. She won’t disappoint!

ID#335663
ADULT DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR SPAYED FEMALE
Leona is especially sweet and full of love. She came to the shelter with her furry friend Lucy and they are both a bit shy at the moment. With love and patience they will become your fast friend. Leona or Lucy are not compatible with other felines, and both are housetrained. Please ask the staff to set up a meet and greet with her.

SUMMER
ID#331366
ADULT DOMESTIC MED HAIR SPAYED FEMALE
Wholly cow is Boots ever a cute girl. You will totally fall in love with her, as she adores interacting and playing, but also can be just as happy curled up in a warm lap. She would suit a quieter family so if you have the time and love to give to her, she can hardly wait to become a permanent member of your family.
We think that Lewy is the cutest of all the kittens at the shelter. If you give him a chance to show you all the love and laughter he has to give, you will spend hours cuddling with him and be a amazed at how loud his purr is when he’s content. Please ask the staff to set up a one on one meeting with him...oh, don’t forget to ask for Lewy.
