After the blistering heat of the past few weeks — now broken much to the relief of many — more than a few lawns in Kimberley are baked brown.

But there are many that are kept green with watering and the message from City Hall is that

while watering is permitted, there are guidelines that can lead to more effective sprinkling and can save water at the same time.

Council received a Water Smart Report this week that outlined where there has been progress in water waste, and where there is room for improvement.

Kimberley’s overall water usage is down — a 13 per cent decrease since 2011. A lot of that is due to improvements in the city’s water data collection infrastructure.

Pet care in the dog days of summer Practical advice for keeping your pooch happy Sally MacDonald Townsman Staff

It’s summer time and the living is easy – but many of us don’t realize that our four-legged family members need extra attention in the warmer months.

When you take Fido along on vacation, there are a few things to keep in mind, said Cranbrook veterinarian Gerry MacIntyre of Kootenay Veterinary Clinic.

“Little things happen that can create strife on your holiday,” he said. “If you are aware of the problems that can arise, you can hopefully avoid most of them.”

When you are packing for a holiday within Canada, take your dog’s own food rather than counting on buying it wherever you go – especially if your dog has a special diet. If you’re travelling to the States, you won’t be allowed to take dog food with you, but research where you can buy it once you get across the line.

Also if you’re crossing the border, be sure to take your dog’s rabies vaccination papers. A rabies dog tag alone isn’t enough to allow your pet to be admitted to the States.

Do some research about common dog problems in your holiday destination. For instance, while heartworm and fleas are not common in the East Kootenay, they are much more so in the Okanagan and the Lower Main-

land. Consider a preventative treat- ing in a camper with a skunked dog,” said MacIntyre. ment program before you leave.

“There’s nothing worse than sleep- that smells or has algae growing.

Drinking stagnant water can also cause vomiting and diarrhea, and swimming in it can give the dog duck mites that cause itchiness, and in a recent case in the Lower Mainland, a stagnant pond contained norovirus.

You can also get a multi shot from your vet that helps protect your dog from ticks, mites, fleas and tapeworm it can pick up in the forest and from small critters it could come into contact with.

Closer to home, it’s very easy for dogs to overheat summer. It’s common knowledge not to leave your dog in the vehicle on a hot day, but even in your backyard your four-legged friend can over heat.

“Dogs don’t sweat except through the pads of their feet, so they will look at ways of using the environment to cool themselves off,” said MacIntyre, saying this is why dogs will often dig holes to lay in in the backyard or in the sand at the beach.

They will pant to cool themselves off – moving air over the tongue rapidly – but this is only effective if the air around them is moving.

Some breeds have more trouble keeping cool than others. Dogs without a snout, such as pugs and shih tzus – are less efficient at panting to cool themselves down. Similarly, dogs without an undercoat can overheat faster because the undercoat traps cooler air against the skin.

For that reason, wetting down a shaggy dog can make it harder for the dog to keep cool because there is less air space against its body.

Flume funds From Page 1 City CAO Scott Sommerville explained that there was still some negotiation going on.

“We are working with the province,” He said. “Despite the late announcement of provincial funding, it was expected work would begin this year.

“However, we have learned rushing into a project of this magnitude can lead to issues with planning. We are negotiating with the province to ensure funding is available in 20015 and 2016.”

The window for actual in-creek construction is very small as it must take place during the fisheries window when flows are low enough to divert the creek for several months yet still be in the construction season.

The federal and provincial governments have provided $1,034,291 each. The City has also committed $1,034,291 in addition to what has already been spent on the project.

Watering your lawn the Water Smart way From Page 1 The City is also utilizing a systematic and coordinated effort to locate and repair leaks in the system as well as water loss management and irrigation best practices.

Still, there are peak flow times, such as the recent heat wave, when water demand is quite high. And the largest contributor to the high demand is lawn watering.

Kimberley is under voluntary water restrictions. Residents are asked to water only every second day and to water early in the morning and in the evening when the sun is not directly overhead.

But Coun. Bev Middlebrook says that it is obvious that not everyone is getting that message.

“I grew up in Sas-

Limit the amount of yard space given over to thirsty lawn, and increase the amount given to native plants or natural habitat • • •

•

Drip irrigation loses far less to evaporation than sprinkling. katchewan where water was scarce,” she said. “Since moving to Kimberley I have come to respect the abundance of water we have. But just because we don’t have a shortage doesn’t mean we should be wasteful. I see sprinklers on for 12 hours. I see sprinklers on in the 37

degree heat, in the sun, for hours. We need more education.”

Mayor Ron McRae said the guidelines are voluntary but it was a good point.

Coun. Albert Hoglund said the information on conserving water goes out every year, but obviously some

• people are not reading it.

Kimberley does not have a Water Smart Ambassador at the moment, as the last one left the job. McRae said the city was negotiating with Cranbrook to borrow their employee two days a week to bring the conservation message to residents.

• •

If you use sprinklers, turn them on in early morning or after dusk rather than at midday, to reduce evaporation.

Adjust your sprinkler heads so the water droplets are large; fine mist evaporates more easily, so it doesn’t get to your plants’ roots.

Use micro or drip irrigation, a system of pipes or hoses that deliver water directly to the base of the plant. Drip irrigation is around 90 per cent efficient, unlike regular sprinkler systems, where up to 50 per cent of the water is wasted.

Don’t overfeed your lawn; generally lawns only need water every five days, and you don’t need to water when there has been rain. Fertilize only twice a year, in spring and fall.

Keep your lawn healthy with less water use by leaving grass longer when you mow—up to three inches—and leaving the cut ends on top of the lawn.

Soil with high sand or clay content may have trouble using water efficiently. Add compost to your garden beds to keep plants healthy with less water.

Mulch with bark, wood chips, grass clippings, or other plant material where the ground is bare, such as around trees and in flower beds. Mulching can make your soil 50 per cent moister and controls weeds.

No campfire ban for the Southeast Fire Centre For the Bulletin

CASTLEGAR - The Southeast Fire Centre has received many inquiries about whether a campfire ban will implemented.

The fire centre will not be issuing a campfire prohibition at this time, but staff will continue to evaluate the situation on a daily basis.

Sometimes it is necessary to implement campfire prohibitions to reduce the risk of wildfires. Multiple factors determine the timing of such a ban, including weather conditions, local fire activity and whether fire centre staff are encountering widespread non-compliance with campfire regulations.

The current situation does not warrant this preventative action, due to recent precipitation, the forecasted weather conditions and that fact that there have been no incidents

in the Southeast Fire Centre this season where campfire misuse has resulted in a wildfire.

However, the open fire prohibition announced on July 2, 2014, will remain in place until the public is otherwise notified. Specifically, prohibited open burning activities include: * The burning of any waste, slash or other materials. * Stubble or grass fires of any size over any area. * The use of fireworks, sky lanterns or burning barrels of any size or description.

Campfires must not be larger than a half-metre wide by a half-metre tall. Anyone lighting a campfire must maintain a fireguard by removing flammable debris from around the campfire area and must have a hand tool or at least eight litres of water available nearby to

properly extinguish the fire.

Campfires must not be lit or kept burning during windy conditions. Make sure the fire is fully extinguished and the ashes are cold to the touch before leaving the area for any length of time.

Remember that embers can reignite, especially in warm weather.

Careless campfire use can have costly repercussions. Anyone who leaves a campfire unattended for any length of time may be fined up to $345. Anyone whose campfire causes a wildfire may also be subject to a penalty of $100,000 and one year in jail, and may be ordered to pay for costs associated with fighting the fire and any damages.

The Southeast Fire Centre would like to thank the public for reporting wildfires and for using campfires safely during this period of elevated fire danger.

The Southeast Fire Centre extends from the U.S. border in the south to the Mica Dam in the north and from the Okanagan Highlands and Monashee

East Kootenay residents can continue to enjoy campfires.

Mountains in the west to the B.C.-Alberta border in the east. This includes the Selkirk and Rocky Mountain resource districts.

The Southeast Fire Centre urges members of the public to always check the Wildfire Man-

Summer pet care From Page 3 Also keep in mind that surfaces could be hot – asphalt can easily reach 75 degrees celsius in direct sub. A good rule is if it’s too hot for your feet, it’s not a good idea for your dog either.

If your dog does overheat, cool it down gradually.

“Too rapid a body temperature change can compromise organ function,” said MacIntyre.

The vessels in the skin open up more to help the dog cool off.

Hosing it down with cold water or throwing it into a cold lake can cause those vessels to constrict and reduce the cooling mechanism.

But overheating can be deadly so the best move is to get your dog to a vet as quickly as possible.

Speargrass is another

common summer hazard for dogs. The pointy dried grass has a barb that makes it easy to go into the dog’s ear, eye or skin, and hard to get out.

After your dog has been running through grass, check it over thoroughly. If your dog is constantly holding its head to the side, it’s an indication there is something inside the ear. If its eye is weeping, don’t assume eye drops will solve the problem – it could be speargrass inside the third eyelid.

Take speargrass seriously, MacIntyre said, and seek medical attention.

“In most cases, the animal will require sedation. If you try to (remove it) yourself, you could end up perforating an ear drum. All it takes is the dog moving sharply just once.”

Helping kids ‘make cents’ of finances

Trail, BC - The more children learn about money, and the earlier they start building the knowledge, skills and confidence needed to become financially literate, the more likely they’ll be to make sound decisions about their financial future.

However, a recent Ispos Reid poll shows that only one-third of Canadian kids between ages 10-17 regularly talk to their parents about money and budgeting.

The same study also shows that Canadian parents, nearly 90% of those polled, said they “wished financial institutions would take a more proactive role in educating youth in Canada about savings and debt.”

“At Kootenay Savings, we are committed to helping our members and communities become more financially literate, starting with our youth,” shares Kootenay Savings VP: Sales & Member Experience, Nancy Crockett. “We want to help kids form healthy financial habits at an early age and empower them to make informed choices, which is why we developed Kootenay Kids Cash, our entertaining and interactive youth budgeting workshop.”

Designed for students in grades

five through seven, and delivered by fun, engaging Kootenay Savings financial experts, Kootenay Kids Cash turns the classroom into an imaginary family with an income to allocate, expenses to manage and decisions to make. Throughout the hourlong workshop students are introduced to basic money concepts such as savings, spending, budgeting and interest. They are also presented with real-life scenarios designed to enhance decision making skills and highlight the difference between needs and wants.

Kootenay Kids Cash was first introduced in 2012 to grade six students at three elementary schools in the Castlegar region. Since then, the program has expanded across the East, North and West Kootenays, with over 800 grade five to seven students from 13 different schools taking in the workshop.

With Kootenay Kids Cash receiving overwhelmingly positive feedback from students, teachers and parents, Kootenay Savings next plans to introduce a budgeting, borrowing and investing financial literacy workshop for high school students during the 2014/2015 school year.

B.C. back in black, deep in debt

W

hen the audited public accounts confirmed a $353 million surplus for the last fiscal year, B.C. Liberal political staff were quick to remind reporters of the NDP’s main theme from last year’s election campaign.

Pages of election quotes from almost every NDP MLA were waiting to be distributed. It was a “bogus budget,” one of the more polite tags applied to the government’s pre-election fiscal plan.

“It underestimates the costs in a whole bunch of ministries and we’re going to have to review that because all of the decisions that we propose in our platform will have to be implemented,” said then-leader Adrian Dix, describing the NDP’s plans to tax and spend more.

Skeena MLA Robin Austin targeted health care in the budget debate: “Bearing in mind that our population is actually increasing, bearing in mind that our population is aging, I think it’s very unrealistic to think we can actually limit health care expenditures to 2.7 per cent.”

As it turned out, health care spending grew by just over two per cent. It still went up by $360 million from the previous year, but after annual increases of six or seven

per cent had become the norm, this is quite an achievement. New agreements remain to be negotiated with doctors and nurses, so we’re unlikely to see the same cost control results for the current year.

Ottawa’s health care transfer payment formula has changed, and increases are to be capped at three per cent a year by 2016, so this is the kind of spending restraint all provinces are expected to produce.

Education was the only other ministry to receive sigBC Views nificant extra funding last year, up $299 million despite Tom continuing enrolment deFletcher cline. Like health, the education budget goes up every year, and these increases, along with strong student performance results, expose the rhetoric of the B.C. Teachers’ Federation about a cash-starved system for what it is.

But the biggest fabrication of last year’s election was the “debt free B.C.” slogan emblazoned on the side of Premier Christy Clark’s campaign bus.

The public accounts confirm that the province’s total debt rose to just over $60 billion, the latest of a series of increases since 2008. The much-touted balanced budget is on the operating side, while the province continues to pile up debt to pay for the Port Mann mega-project, hospitals, schools and other big infrastructure.

Letters to the Editor

Finance Minister Mike de Jong emphasized the difference between capital and operating expenditures.

“We’re borrowing to build as opposed to paying for the groceries,” he said.

“Debt free B.C.” was not an outright misrepresentation, merely one of the most far-fetched promises ever delivered in the history of B.C. politics. The legislature is to convene in October so the B.C. Liberals can pass a taxation framework for the nascent liquefied natural gas industry, which the government hopes will generate the revenues to ultimately pay off the province’s $60-billion mortgage.

Meanwhile there is more capital debt ahead. The cabinet is expected to greenlight the Site C dam on the Peace River this fall, a decade-long project estimated to cost $8 billion.

Along with the public accounts, the finance ministry released a list of surplus land sales. The sale of 50-odd properties, some of them closed schools, netted the provincial treasury about $310 million, which accounts for most of the surplus.

Was this “selling off the family silverware to try and balance the books,” as nowNDP leader John Horgan termed it before the election? It’s certainly not a revenue source to be matched next year.

BC SUMMER GAMES

Local athletes win bronze at B.C. Summer Games TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

The Kootenay zone athletics team picked up a pair of bronze medals at the B.C. Summer Games this past weekend in Nanaimo.

Jake Sebben had a 40-metre javelin throw, which was good for third place, while Justin Marsh picked up a bronze in the pentathlon.

In a field of 12 other competitors, Sebben’s throw—his second-tolast one of the competition—was the one that put him on the podium.

“I wasn’t sure if I was going to make it to the top eight out of 16, but I did, I made it by a couple metres,” Sebben said. “I wasn’t throwing very well until my second-last throw, then I threw 40 and came third.”

All the athletics events were held at the Rotary Bowl in Nanaimo. In javelin throw, competitors got three throws to determine the top eight. From there, the next three throws determined the overall winners.

Sebben is a member of the East Kootenay Track and Field Club, and has been honing his athletics abilities, including the javelin throw, for the last few years.

“I did it in school and I liked it,” said Sebben. “Then James—my [EKTFC] coach—started showing me some

Gregory Hay, representing Zone 6, which includes Vancouver Island-Central Coast, was the overall winner with a throw of over 50 metres. Noah Elliot, his zone teammate, picked up the silver.

It was an encouraging atmosphere, and all the competitors were supportive of each other, Sebben said.

“Everyone was super nice,” Sebben said. “The

javelin competition, it wasn’t really competitive at all, we were just kind of having a good time. When the guy came first, when he threw 50, everyone was just super excited for him, cause he might’ve broken a record.

“It was a good time, trying to do your best.”

Justin Marsh picked up a bronze medal in Pentathlon, owning the last podium spot after completing the five competitions that make up the event Marsh threw 8.8 metres in shot put, posted a 5.6 metre long jump,

earned a 1.52 high jump, ran a 3:16.09 1000-metre race, and made a personal best in the 100-metre hurdles at 15.51 seconds. In all five of those events, he came in sixth, third, second, fifth and first, respectively.

“It was all pretty good,” said Marsh.

“With first, second and third place, we were all pretty close in the scores. We were all basically the same in skill level.”

Just like with Sebben, Marsh got involved in the pentathlon with a little prodding from

James O’Kane, his coach with the track club.

“If you’re an athlete in it, it shows that you’re one of the best of the best,” said Marsh, “because you can do throwing, running, jumping and all of that, so therefore, you’re one of the best if you excel at it.”

Ethan Foster, representing the Fraser Val-

ley won first place with an overall score of 2,551 points. Mackenzie Riddell of Vancouver-Squamish took second with 2,469 points. Marsh rounded out third place with 2,403. Fellow Cranbrookian Dayne Aasland captured fourth place with a score of 2,348.

It was Marsh’s first time at the Summer

Games and he enjoyed connect with his teammates around the region.

“It was better than I thought,” said Marsh.

“It was probably the best time I’ve had in a long time, meeting all those people from the Kootenays. We all became pretty good friends and it was a very good team.”

Leafs shake up front office STEPHEN WHYNO Canadian Press

TORONTO - Brendan Shanahan made his first significant front-office move as Toronto Maple Leafs president on Tuesday by hiring Kyle Dubas as assistant general manager.

Dubas, who served as GM of the OHL’s Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds, is a major proponent of advanced statistics in hockey, and his addition to the Leafs under Shanahan and general manager Dave Nonis signals a shift in organizational philosophy.

“He’s not tied to any old ideas,” Shanahan said at a news conference at Air Canada Centre. “He’s obviously got a great apprecia-

tion and understanding of analytics, but he’s also married that to the complexities and instincts that you have to have when you’re putting a product on the ice.”

The Leafs also parted ways with executives Claude Loiselle and Dave Poulin in the front-office shakeup. Shanahan said he had been thinking about making changes under Nonis but explained that he wasn’t looking for an assistant GM the entire time.

Dubas, a native of Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., is just 28 years old and was a hockey operations assistant, scout and player agent before becoming the youngest GM in OHL history three years ago. He called the chance to work

for the Leafs a “dream come true.”

Nonis called Dubas an “upand-coming hockey executive.”

“He is an innovative thinker that will bring enthusiasm and impressive abilities to our club,” Nonis said in a statement. “His work ethic, character and demonstrated leadership in Sault Ste. Marie make for a valuable combination that will certainly have a positive impact on our organization in many ways.”

Dubas said it wasn’t a “slam dunk” that he would leave his post with the Greyhounds to join the Leafs. He added that his conversations with Shanahan and Nonis made him enthusiastic about the opportunity.

HOROSCOPES

by Jacqueline Bigar

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You will be determined to wrap up a situation or eliminate a problem. Someone around you could be contentious. Sit back, and listen to what is being shared. You’ll be coming from an unusually secure position.

Let this person air out his or her concerns. Tonight: Take the night off.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You tend to be instinctive when it comes to solving a problem.

You seem to know what to do with any issue that arises from your daily contacts. You have a lot to offer. Allow others to come to you. Listen to what they ask, and then you can decide what to do. Tonight: Your treat.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You might want to clear the air. You will need a creative approach in order to open up others, as they are likely to shut down unexpectedly if you are not careful. Remain sensitive to someone else’s suggestions.

Do not go beyond your normal limits. Tonight: Out late.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You might want to say little and handle what you must first.

Maintain good listening skills, and you will learn a lot about others. Do not allow a sense of irritation to get to you. Someone could be difficult, but you can ignore this person’s criticism as well. Tonight: Nap, then decide.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Do not lose your focus; instead, stay focused on what is important. You could be distracted by a very flirtatious individual in your life, and enjoying every moment. You’ll have a strong sense of direction once you refocus. Know what is needed here. Tonight: Share news.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Pressure builds around you. You might feel as if you need to do some hard thinking, but you won’t have the time yet to stop and reflect. Once you finish your to-do list, you will want to slow down and relax. A conversation with a friend also will be help-

Tundra

ful. Tonight: A late-night chat.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You’ll feel energized and want to be direct with someone at a distance. This person might not appreciate your immediate reaction. Read between the lines with his or her reactions. You will assume far more responsibility than you typically do.

Tonight: Out till the wee hours.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Ask yourself why you are having a strong reaction to someone. The answer could be more significant than you realize. Try to detach. You will be able to work with this person, if you so choose. Tonight: Reach out to someone at a distance and catch up on news.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Others naturally will dominate the scene today. You could be focused on a different goal, and you might be barely interested in your day-to-day routine. A friend could be pushing you hard in the next few days. Take time for a loved one. Tonight: Relate to others directly.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You seem to add to your to-do list all day long, rather than crossing things off. Be more in touch with how routine some of your activities are. Slow down, and know that you do not need to carry others’ burdens.

Tonight: Join a friend for some dinner and drinks.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You think quickly on your feet, even more so today. Your natural inclination will bring positive and rewarding results. Reach out to someone at a distance.

The conversation alone will help you gain a perspective on what is happening around you.

Tonight: Out and about.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) A partner could force your hand. You might want to pull back and consider what is going on. Is this really the stand you want to take? Honor what feels right to you, even if it involves a sudden change. Tonight: Head home first, then decide.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I am 37 and divorced. I identify myself as bisexual and try to live my dating life very privately.

The problem is, my parents are quite judgmental and racist. I dare not say anything about my dating partners, who are of either gender and any color. But I am tired of living my life for others. If I choose to go my own way, however, my two children would lose their grandparents. Any suggestions? -- Frustrated in Virginia Dear Frustrated: You aren’t giving your parents any credit for being able to accept you as you are for the sake of their grandchildren. You don’t need to give them details of your dating life and parade various partners in front of them. No one does. But you should not be afraid to introduce them to someone who becomes a meaningful part of your life, and then give them the time to work through their feelings. You can find support through PFLAG (pflag. org).

Dear Annie: Many years ago, I was disowned by my parents and most of my extended family for marrying against my parents’ wishes. I was allowed back into their lives only because they wanted to see the grandkids. Now, with elder care issues, we are struggling with appropriate boundaries. I’d like to offer some suggestions: Instead of spending every moment yelling at me because I am not there more often, don’t do enough and don’t measure up to your friends’ kids, try saying that you are glad to see me, thanks for the help, etc.

I will do more if I feel appreciated.

I need to know about your health problems and your wishes regarding treatment, but couldn’t we talk about something other than your aches and pains once in a while?

Keep your expectations realistic. I have kids, a job, a home to maintain, in-laws who also need help and my own set of health problems. I am not going to drive 400 miles twice a week to mow your lawn.

Hire somebody.

Stop trying to manipulate me. The time you claimed Dad was dying so I’d spend all my vacation time with you? That was cruel.

It destroyed my trust in you.

If you want honesty from me, then be someone who is safe to tell the truth to. Listen respectfully. Apologize sincerely when appropriate, or explain your point of view and the reasons for your choices. Don’t attack me.

Be cordial and polite toward my spouse and kids. If you force me to choose between you, I will choose them.

You say that you are too old and set in your ways, and I have to love you the way you are. You are the one who wants a closer relationship. I am ready to give up. If you want a different outcome, you are going to have to change, too. -- Your Son Dear Son: You obviously have had a poor relationship with your parents for years.

We agree that they sound difficult and demanding, but it will be hard for them to change without calm and consistent responses from you, rewarding their appropriate behavior, leaving when they are manipulative or insulting, and teaching them what you will tolerate. Only you can decide whether it’s worth the effort.

Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Hurting Mama,” whose son texted her “Happy Birthday.” The first time my son sent me a text to wish me a happy birthday, I called him to inform him that if it begins with “Happy” or “Merry,” it is not a textable moment. I didn’t speak to him in a harsh or mean way, just matter-of-factly. That was two years ago, and I haven’t received a text on important occasions since.

This is a bit of a family joke, but everyone now knows when it is appropriate to text and when it isn’t a wise move. -- A.

Obituaries HENDERSON, Catherine Jeanette â&#x20AC;&#x153;C.J.â&#x20AC;?

April 27, 1941 July 16, 2014

Catherine Jeanette â&#x20AC;&#x153;C.J.â&#x20AC;?

Henderson passed away peacefully on Wednesday, July 16, 2014 surrounded by her loving family.

Born C.J. Colquhoun on April 27, 1941 in Toney River, Nova Scotia. After graduating from Pictou Academy High School in 1958, C.J. went on to graduate in nursing from Aberdeen Hospital in 1961. During her nursing training, she secretly eloped and married the lover of her life, David Henderson in 1960.

In 1965, with little money, few belongings, and three young children, C.J. and Dave headed west to B.C. for a new life and settled in Cranbrook where she worked at the Cranbrook Hospital. Four years later, the family moved to Wycliffe Park and resided there for seventeen years. C.J.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fondest memories were at Wycliffe Park and she enjoyed many happy summers around her pool and loved it when friends and neighbours would stop by for a swim. Even though she considered B.C. her true home, she was always proud of her maritime heritage.

C.J. continued her nursing at the hospital and later went on to be a big part of the home care nursing program.

She was driven, had a strong work ethic, and was never afraid to storm into the doctorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lounge and speak her mind. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Surely in arguing she had her skill, for even when vanquished she would argue still.â&#x20AC;?

Her passion as a nurse carried over with her diagnosis this past spring, and as her illness progressed, it was her hope that her knowledge and experience in the medical field, along with her sometimes brutal honesty, would encourage positive changes in palliative care. C.J. handled her illness with unbelievable composure right up to her final few days.

C.J. was the proud mother to Megan (Chris Obst), Grant (Shannon), and Robin (Geoff) MacLeod, and grandmother to Freddie and Oscar Obst, Colby and Danni Henderson, and Marty, Wyatt, and Hayden MacLeod. She is also survived by her two sisters Elaine (Aubrey) MacLeod and Jackie (Eric) Ross, both of Nova Scotia. C.J. was predeceased by her husband Dave and parents John and Violet Colquhoun.

C.J. could not express enough how much she loved her family and how much of an inspiration her husband and kids were to her.

In lieu of flowers, donations in C.J.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s memory may be made to Family Palliative Room c/o East Kootenay Foundation for Health, #13-24th Ave. North, Cranbrook, B.C. V1C 3H9.

Drop in between 1 and 3 oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;clock for an informal celebration of life at the upper level of Wycliffe Park on Friday, July 25, 2014.
