rights to a third party” that would have to be agreed to by aboriginal title holders or justified as an intrusion of their constitutional rights. The judgment left it open to the B.C. government to amend the Forest Act so it conforms with aboriginal title as it is declared. In recent years the province has begun negotiating resource sharing agreements with aboriginal communities, including forest tenures and shares of provincial royalties from mines. Two weeks before the Tsilhqot’in judgment, the B.C. government announced a three-year “stewardship agreement” with five Tsilhqot’in member communities. The province is providing $670,000 per year for projects to address forest and wildlife effects from the mountain pine beetle epidemic in the region.

will take some time for the province to consider amending the Forest Act and other legislation that has been affected by the decision. More than 90% of B.C. is Crown land, and much of that is subject to forest licences as well as unresolved aboriginal land claims. In the Tsilhqot’in territory west of Williams Lake, the high court’s landmark ruling clarified the effect of aboriginal title. “Now that title has been established [in the Tsilhqot’in claim area], the timber on it no longer falls within the definition of ‘Crown timber’ and the Forest Act no longer applies,” wrote Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin in the unanimous judgment released June 26. McLachlin wrote that the B.C. government can still enforce “general regulatory legislation” such as that dealing with pest invasions or forest fire control in areas of proven aboriginal title. But a timber licence in such an area is “a direct transfer of aboriginal property

Horoscope for the Week: July 4, 2014 Contact Michael O’Connor for a Personal Reading • 250-352-6871 sunstarastrology@gmail.com • www.sunstarastrology.com Tip of the Week: Happy Birthday! Not just someone but millions of people hear that phrase every day. As common as it is, it remains quite special to the person who hears it. As well, it is not a reduction of Astrology; it is simply a reminder that we each embody the archetypes ‘our way’. I have met people whose birth date and even year let alone time is uncertain. By using Astrology I have had a lot of success helping them not only to determine their birth time. Although not necessary for a deep and effective Reading, knowing the time certainly does sharpen the picture. Deciphering when someone is born can be done because we each have a destiny and the timing of it is very measurable indeed, when one is well versed and practiced in the fine art of Astrology. Basically, character and destiny are tightly woven. In fact, it can be said that it is our basic destiny to be who we individually are, to live authentically. Implied in this statement is: attunement, rhythm and flow. Due to the influences of free will, we can choose to tune-in and live authentically and fulfill our destiny this way. However, free will can also lead us off our path, due to adhering solely to outer realities, pressures, rhythms, trends and influences in general. A short while ago I heard a man on CBC radio saying that ‘doing what you love for a living is bad advice’. He asserted that we should not necessarily endeavor to love or even like our work. I certainly disagree. This tendency to sell-out to the market place may have its merits in the shorter term and may even be practically necessary and wise. Yet, the longer term implications of proverbially placing the round peg in the square hole is the source of its own long list of stresses and related issues. With awareness, which Astrology provides and which can include deep personal insight (when the focus is person-centered) and timing, we can successfully guide us to ‘work towards doing what we love’. This means we can strategically do what we feel we must but steadily and deliberately aim for doing what we love, even if it takes many years. As mentioned, what we do is such an important feature of who we are, when it comes to living authentically. PS: Happy Birthday United States and all of you too, born on the 4th of July! Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20) The seeds of new growth should be showing some sprouts by now. These will be most evident close to home. The challenge is to move forward, to advance. Trying to perpetuate patterns, especially in how you relate to family members and perhaps superiors at work, could prove problematic. Nurture a more cooperative attitude and approach. Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21) An extra busy cycle continues. The good news is that it implies expansion. This flow will continue for a few more weeks anyway. But you will feel both the inspiration and opportunity to play more soon. The window to do so will last a while, even up to a couple of months. But get it in because you will be busier again by late summer. Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21) Intimate gatherings with family and friends are a likely source of happiness now. You feel extra enthusiastic, expressive and playful. This energy pattern could also manifest as artistic inspiration. In any case, you should feel more confident and content than you have for a while. Some lingering health issues are the sobering part of the plot. Need a miracle? Contact me, I know of a valuable resource you may like… a lot. Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22) You are in a pioneering and expansive mood. It is giving you the confidence to take a few risks, to go big. Yet you may also feel a bit moody and edgy. This might be best applied to constructive projects. Be careful not to allow this edge to produce unwanted cuts, especially among friends. Balance a close attention to detail with taking a diplomatic and openminded approach in your communications. Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23) You are in a rather deep and emotional mood. At best you are able to ‘feel with your heart and think with your mind’. It may also be the source of a profound sense of renewed possibilities. Still, you may feel the need to lay claim to hidden reserves of faith. Yet you should feel a deep sense of renewed confidence over the coming weeks. Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22) A renewed sense of joy and confidence at home, among friends and at work is yours to enjoy now. At least one of these sectors is feeding the others. This upliftment is affording you the opportunity to reassess your situation in a more positive light. It may even be the source of inventiveness. Take flight upon new wings of confidence.

Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22) An exciting and stimulating, if hectic and tiring, pace continues. Yet there is good reason to say you are having fun. Fortunately as well, you are feeling stronger these days, as if you have passed through a dark night this past winter and spring. So you have entered an expansive cycle and it will lead to a broadening of your horizons and friendships too. Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21) You are in a philosophical, adventurous and altogether spirited mood. This has been true for many months generally but the emphasis is now peaking. You have been challenged to overcome inner fears early this year and it may have been tough but there is reason to say you are getting stronger by the day. If you are not feeling mightier yet you will soon…. Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21) Who has what you want and especially what you need? Deciphering between these two is the first step, ideally with emphasis on needs. Then make a list or people and resources. Step 3 is to follow through and ask. Perhaps what you need is divine help. Prayers do work and calling on angels is very wise. Operators are waiting for your call. Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19) A rich and probably rewarding series of stimulations on relationship fronts continues. There remains the element of renovation but that cycle will come to completion by month’s end. The focus for repairs and improvements may extend to family and friends as much as home and garden. Either way, aim to give more and make deliberate improvements in your communications. Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19) Creative communications and networking is the key to your professional and social success now. Weaving in more warmth, empathy and Aquarian friendliness is the call. This is also a playful cycle so be sure to tuck in plenty of that. It is also a time to push through resistances and persevere wherever this affirmation applies. Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20) Enjoying fun and games with family and friends continues to be in the spotlight, amidst an otherwise ambitious mood. Balancing the two will prove especially rewarding. Projects and expressions which reveal your beauty and originality are especially favoured. A positive practical and creative momentum initiated now will prove extra valuable over the coming weeks and months.

Gregarious Gardener

10 Neat Things by Top Crop Garden, Farm & Pet

Pollinators

1. What is Pollination? Pollination is the transfer of pollen from the male to the female parts within one flower, or from one to another flower of the same species. Pollen is mostly moved within a single flower or between flowers by an animal, usually an insect, and sometimes by the wind. In the garden, you can even help out yourself with a brush. 2. Pollinate if You Want to Eat! Pollination allows a plant to reproduce and to produce fruit. A single flower may need multiple pollinator visits to ensure that it will produce full-bodied fruit and a full set of seeds. Many of the plants we rely on for our daily meals need the help of pollinators, including apple trees, tomato plants, pumpkin vines and blueberry shrubs. 3. What’s All the Buzz? More than 200,000 animal species serve as pollinators. Most of them are from the insect family, but hummingbirds, bats and other small mammals can be quite helpful as well. Bees might be our favourite pollinators as some types also give us honey as a by-product. They usually like warm areas, but there are some types of bees that live in the Arctic and way up in the Andes and Himalayan mountains. 4. More Traffic is a Good Thing. If you want to boost the amount of pollinators that frequent your yard and garden, there are some things you can do. If you create conditions they like, provide them with a place to stay and feel safe and add plants they prefer, you will soon see a traffic increase you can actually enjoy. 5. Back in Black - and Yellow. Bees - both honeybees and their cousins, such as mason bees - are important pollinators that should be getting an invitation to your yard. They are looking for nectarand pollen-rich flowers that are brightly coloured and have a sweet scent. Choose a variety of plants of different shapes that flower at different times so there is always a snack available for whatever type of bee that might be around. Some good plants to choose are crab apples and cranberries, chives and catmint as well as coneflowers and cosmos. 6. Get a Hummer! Hummingbirds have long beaks and brush-like tongues. They generally look out for long, tube-shaped flowers colored red or orange. Plants they like in particular are honeysuckles and Russian sage, but you can also try canna, columbine, foxglove and lupines. Even annuals such as fuchsias, impatiens and petunias can get them zooming in. 7. Don’t Flutter By, Butterfly! Butterflies are often on top of the list of insects we like to have around us. The names of some plants already let you know that they would be good to plant. Buddleia, also known as ‘Butterfly Bush’, is irresistible to butterflies and hummingbirds with its large, honey-scented blooms in various colours. Asclepias tuberosa, the ‘Butterfly Weed’, is another example. 8. Creature Comforts. There are other things, besides the right plants that will make your yard a favourite hangout for bugs. Supplying a source of water, such as a bird bath, and a nice resting spot, such as a few flat stones in a sunny, sheltered spot, can also increase your chances of having a yard that will be frequented by a multitude of insects. You can also think about hanging up a mason bee or bat house. 9. It Happens after Sunset! Most flowers rely on pollinators to visit them during the daytime and they count on bright colours to attract them. Plants that bloom at night often have more pale flowers and instead send out a heavy, sweet scent to catch the attention of moths, bats and other nocturnal pollinators. Moonflowers, datura and evening primrose are some examples. 10. We Need Pollinators and They Need Us. Throughout the world, there is evidence that many species of pollinators have decreased. There could be many reasons, including a loss of habitat, misuse of pesticides or diseases and parasites. If we create places for pollinators to live and thrive, they in turn will keep us growing.

Big questions and big changes after Tsilhqot’in decision B.C. Views by Tom Fletcher

The 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 Williams Lake are essentially 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 McLachlin 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 options in land ownership. By voluntary agreement, they can convert land to fee-simple ownership, making it available for mortgage or sale. Modern treaty holders also get out from under the federal Indian Act, which remains in force despite this latest decision. One of the big questions asked in the days after the Tsilhqot’in decision was this: Is the Northern Gateway 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 occupation 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 successful, 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.

Sawyer believes the year-round production model holds great potential for growers across BC and anticipates an increasing focus on locally produced food, rather than “relying on produce being trucked in.” According to Sawyer, the project also facilitated connections between agri-businesses, youth and community. “We are seeing many high school stu-

Creston COTR and locally grown food Regarded within Central Kootenay as the core of agricultural activity, the Creston Valley has the potential to produce food for the entire Kootenay Region and beyond. But there are a few problems in the way. Like many other farming communities, Creston faces challenges including aging farmers and year-round vegetable production in a colder climate. With help from the Investment Agriculture Foundation, the College of the Rockies took a two-birds-one-stone approach to these issues. From its Creston Valley campus greenhouse, it educated children, youth

and families on local food production and provided opportunities to grow winter crops. Jean Hoover, a program participant and avid gardener who supplies farmers markets, praises the program’s potential to empower the community. “Its about allowing everyone to participate in food production and showing you can get something from practically nothing...even people without yards are growing wonderful produce from their balconies!” Besides demonstrating practical techniques for winter growing, Hoover ﬁnds the mere idea behind the program is a powerful

dent participants exploring careers in agriculture and getting their friends involved.” With the education of current farmers, the development of future ones, and increasing awareness of

local food production on the part of consumers, the winter harvest project is helping to secure the long-term growth and sustainability of BC agriculture. While the information is par-

ticularly valuable in the northern climates, the principles of all-season grown can be applied everywhere. Funding for this project was provided by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada

and the BC Ministry of Agriculture through programs delivered by the Investment Agriculture Foundation of BC.

Dental assistant program sees new milestone Submitted College of the Rockies’ Certified Dental Assistant program is marking a new milestone as students graduate from the program for the 30th year. The Certified Dental Assistant program, first offered in 1983, has evolved over the past 30 years to match innovations in dental practice. The program provides access to a modern clinic with a digital radiography computer, a panoramic x-ray machine, a sterilization area and more, all which help prepare students for a real-life work environment. The spring dental clinic, which sees 400 patients from the community, ensures students receive an abundance of practical experience – more than they could hope to receive at a larger institution. Many of the patients seen in the spring clinic are longterm repeat customers who have access

Matching funds for new bed

PHOTO SUBMITTED

Members of the Creston Kootenay Foundation Board present EKFH with a $10,000 grant. (From left) Brian Clifford (Chair EKFH), Ted Hutchison, Donna Grainger (EKFH), Chair Heather Suttie, Signe Miller. A new bariatric hospital bed will soon be making its appearance at the Swan Valley Residential Care Facility in Creston thanks to the coming together of two foundations. The Creston Kootenay Foundation and the East Kootenay Foundation for Health decided to provide matching funds ($10,000 each) for a total of $20,000 to purchase the bed. The Creston Kootenay Foundation selected the project as part of its annual community foundation grant giving evening while the health foundation allocated its

portion of funds from the Estate of Olga Kramer, a long time resident of the Creston Valley. This is the third time that the two organizations have committed to partner funding. Heather Suttie, Chair of the Creston Kootenay Foundation explains, “This is so very exciting and it is so good to have a partner like EKFH that has the best interests of Creston in mind. I predict that our Foundations have much more history to create together.” With obesity trends on the rise, healthcare providers must be ready to

provide care for patients of size while keeping them safe and comfortable at the same time. A bariatric bed offers protection to patient’s skin, provides a wider and longer sleep and resting surface while allowing health care workers to deliver better care without compromising patient’s dignity. “What an honour to be in Creston to receive this co-funding grant from the Creston Kootenay Foundation. For EKFH to be included amongst the many worthwhile projects (12 in total) the community foundation is funding truly is very humbling,” shares Donna Grainger, Executive Director from EKFH. When charitable organizations work together for betterment of community magic can happen. For more information on these two foundations or to make a gift in support of their work visit East Kootenay Foundation for Health www.ekfh.ca and the Creston Kootenay Foundation www. ckfoundation.com.

Kimberley Farmers’ Market is ready for locals and visitors alike

Farmers’ Market opens for the first time this

Thursday, July 3rd, at 5 p.m. Now that the sum-

mer sun has readied the first round of crops for

DEMO RIDE July 5th 10am-5pm

harvest, local farmers will be loading up their market tables for eager Kimberlites to pick up some local flavour. But there will be much more than just veggies to be found at the Farmers’ Market, including eggs, meat, and honey, plus bread and baked goods, and all kinds of local crafts and artisanal products. Of course, there will be hot food vendors serving up dinner and plenty of sweet treats. The market will run from 5-7:30pm every Thursday until September 11th. One block of Howard St, just up from the Platzl, will be closed for the market every week. Shoppers will want to arrive for 5pm to have the pick of the crop and to catch the farmyard flair of the special market opening ceremony. “Response from local area vendors, downtown businesses, the CIty of Kimberley and the community at large has been 100%

positive, and we are all looking forward to Kimberley hosting its own Farmers’ Market! Twenty-five vendors are signed up for our inaugural market this week, and we look forward to a great season,” said Wildsight’s market manager Erna JensenShill. The mantra for the market is “make it, bake it, or grow it” and that means everything on offer is created by a local artisan, made by a local baker, or grown or raised by a local farmer. For market shoppers, that means tasty, fresh, nutritious food, direct from the producer. For producers, that means a connection with their customers and a fair, direct price for their products. For the community, the market is a place to gather. Eating local food has environmental benefits too, as produce need not be shipped long distances, and many market producers are organic or otherwise limit their

impacts. “The Kimberley Farmers’ Market fits right in with our focus on food sustainability,” said Wildsight’s Jessica Windle. “It’s all about growing and eating our food in a way that sustains the planet and our community.” Wildsight’s Food Sustainability program also includes the new shared Open Gate Garden, the Edible Garden workshop series to help local gardeners grow their own food, kitchen workshops focused on preserving local food for our long winters, their long-running Apple Capture project, and a focus on composting to turn kitchen scraps into food for the next year’s crop. “We would like to thank the members of the advisory committee and all of the volunteers who are working hard to bring this market to Kimberley,” said Jensen-Shill.

St. Aidan Orthodox Church Slugs: To both parties that seem to both be willing to put up rock walls between them and neither side seems to want to give and take to work at a solution. I am not saying one side is any better than the other but they both have the same thing in their statements, that it is the kids that we are fighting for and that being said I must say that using the children in the manner in which you are to me is wrong. It is like a hostage taking and the only difference is the kids are home and not held at school, so change your signs both sides and take the children out of it because this has gone on too long. I hope that this dispute has a quick end so children can go and do what your signs say -- “go to school” Slugs: To the dirt bikers in the Sam Steele Parade who performed dangerous wheelies and stunts in a congested area within 2 meters of toddlers. There are only two kinds of dirt bikers: those who have crashed and those who will crash. Imagine your bike piled on top of some kids. Unfortunately you were the last act of the parade and left behind a bad impression, ringing eardrums and smelly fumes. Slugs: Many slugs to the thoughtless person who drove up 12th Ave S & dumped grass clippings along the side. Did you not know that there is a place for this stuff at the Transfer Station? Shame on you! Who do you think is going to clean that up? Slugs: Thumbs down to the folks that pulled out all the flowers outside the Bank of Montreal, seriously??????? Can’t people just leave the landscaping that businesses do alone!!!! We do it for a reason, to keep our businesses looking nice and you go and ruin it for everyone!!! Hugs: A huge hug to my daughter, who needs one lately, due to other people dragging her into their dramas and making her life miserable. Slugs: Many giant, slimy slugs to people who drag innocent people into their dramas. More of those slugs to people who ask others to alter the truth to save their own behinds. You people all deserve each other and don’t deserve those you’re hurting with your actions. Hopefully you

all plan to grow up one day but until then, shame on you! Hugs: Big hugs to the old fella on June 25th, who stopped traffic in both directions on the strip in front of the Chamber of Commerce, to allow a Mama duck and her 8 babies to get across the road safely. He rounded up the little ones and made sure they made it across. Nice job buddy!! It put a smile on everyone’s face! Slugs: To the clown 3 cars back who was honking his horn because traffic was stopped. If you are in that much of a hurry, and can’t enjoy what this area has to offer…..move! Slugs: To the two people on pedal bikes Thursday evening (June 26) in Kimberley who thought they would let their dog run alongside them off a leash and chase the deer that was laying under the tree minding it’s own business. First of all, dogs are supposed to be on a leash at all times while walking around town. Secondly, if you know your dog doesn’t listen to you and chases wildlife like that, why is it off leash where you know you might encounter a deer? Don’t go blaming the deer if your dog gets attacked by a protective doe with a fawn!!! It’s people like you who are the cause of things like that. The deer are not to blame. Hugs: To the person who wrote a slug about cyclists riding on Baker St. Would like to add, that as a cyclist I will make an effort to dismount before getting on the sidewalk. I would encourage other cyclists to do the same. Hugs: To the man with his dog picking up garbage on Victoria Ave. Would be nice if the city would put garbage bins along the route so we don’t have to walk so far to dump it. Slugs: To the lazy dog owners who walk their dogs on the Overwaitea hill in Kimberley and let them poop on the path and then do not pick it up. As responsible dog owners/walkers we take offence to this.

If you have a Hug or a Slug...we’d like to hear it. Simply email us at shannon@kootenayadvertiser.com with your short quips, compliments or complaints. We will print the anonymous submissions for all to see. Be honest, but all we ask is you keep it tasteful. Hugs and Slugs will be printed as space allows, if we miss yours check back next week and you will be bumped to the start of the list. You can also drop by a written submission to our office at 1510 2nd Street N. or call Shannon at (250)489-3455 or 1-800-665-2382
