The proposed Riverfront Centre has another half a million dollars in the coffer. The Columbia Basin Trust has approved $500,000 in grant money to go towards the proposed library/museum site should the Loan Authorization Bylaw pass when Trail voters cast their ballots on Nov. 15. Barbara Gibson, chair of the Trail and District Public Library Board, says the promise of $500,000 gives the board momentum for the future. “It is always a good thing to get grant money,” she said. “You can leverage that with other grant organizations.” The promised funds will also provide a bit of relief to taxpayers should the over $6 million facility be built. If there were no outside funding for the project, Trail taxpayers would see an increase of $81 on their annual property taxes to cover the cost of the new facility. According to the City of Trail's website, every $1 million in third-party funding would reduce that bill by $11 per year and Gibson says this $500,000 grant will only benefit the ratepayers. “Anytime you get grant money, it (positively) impacts the cost to the residents,” she said. “I'm sure council will be getting those figures out soon.” See INFORMATION, Page 3

The Trail Smoke Eaters showed a stellar commitment to cleaning up the Columbia River during the local BC Rivers Day event Sunday morning. Rookie defenceman Dexter McLeod braved the chilly waters and hoisted an old City of Trail parking meter out of the water like it was the Stanley Cup. He handed it off to his veteran teammates who stayed dry and warm on shore. By 10 a.m. the city had dispersed 150 sets of gloves and dozens of garbage bags to 125 volunteers who gathered on the sunny fall day to clean along the river's edge from Sunningdale through to Fort Shepherd and the Waneta Dam area.

After the annual meeting of the province's municipal leaders, the question remains - will any of the passed resolutions actually make a difference to communities across B.C.? More than 140 resolutions that covered all aspects of municipal business were volleyed back and forth during the Union of British Columbia Municipalities (UBCM) in Whistler last week, although the province's responses will not be released until spring 2015. It's not whether or not a motion floats during the convention, the point is that the discussion is on the table, and the networking of like-minds can lead to solutions in communities across B.C., says Bert Crockett, a member of Warfield’s government for 12 years. But there's room for improvement on getting ideas from the UBCM floor to the ears in B.C.'s government. “There's a lot of resolutions but most get defeated,” said Crockett. “The government looks at whatever ones suit their needs. Good ones come up and some are far fetching,” he continued. “But if we could zero down from 140 resolutions to 10 good ones then we could focus on pushing those forward.” See TRAIL, Page 3

Dam breach consequences ‘very high’ By Greg Nesteroff Nelson Star

A safety review of the HB mine tailings dam south of Salmo concludes the potential consequences of a failure should be reclassified as “very high” based on Canadian dam safety guidelines. The worst-case scenario report by Kelowna consult-

ant Tetra Tech EBA released last week suggests that if the earthen dam breached, three people could die and clean-up costs could be in the tens of millions of dollars. The affected area would be less than one square kilometer but includes one home and Highway 3. While there is no solid information on

the total tailings volume, the consultant estimated it at 1.8 million cubic meters, and guessed about 40 per cent, or 714,000 cubic meters, would be released in the event of a failure. Flood levels could reach several meters and the highway would be covered with debris and closed three to four weeks.

Trail reps meet with minister

Election nomination period begins today

FROM PAGE 1 While the soon-to-retire mayor spent most of week with the Highway 3 Coalition of the Mayors or in the BC Mayors’ Caucus talks that included roundtable on aging infrastructure, the ad hoc provincial granting process and a full review of the ambulance services, he maintains that the UBCM opens the door to ways that other communities outside the West Kootenay region have dealt with issues that impact taxpayers, such as regional sewer service costs. “It’s a way to network and get into conversations rather than arguments,” he added. “About issues in everybody’s community, and meet with people who can get you in the right direction.” While Crockett awaits UBCM reports from Warfield councillors when they reconvene Oct. 14, he conceded that annual conferences aren’t always seen as valuable learning opportunities. “These are the places you can captivate an audience and bring something back that will be useful locally,” he said. “We are lucky to live in the West Kootenay but we are living in a bubble and don’t always see the bigger picture of issues these other areas are dealing with.” The City of Trail sent four councillors to take in five days of resolutions along with Trail Mayor Dieter Bogs’ itinerary which involved the Mayors’ Caucus and meetings with government officials. He focused on discussion about the federal and provincial governments’ increased downloading of social service costs to small communities and the ever popular aging infrastructure conversations. Additionally, Bogs and council met with Minister Coralee Oakes for an update about the proposed City of Trail municipal boundary extension that includes the regional district’s industrial tax base. “The Ministry agreed to come to our area in January,” said Bogs. “This is good news because in some way they will be involved in the mitigation process, but we aren’t sure how yet.” The Regional District of Central Kootenay (RDCK) brought a resolution to the UBCM asking for a province to review its boundary expansion process to include a voter assent by referendum. The resolution was endorsed during a block of afternoon resolutions, but was not individually discussed, confirmed Trail Coun. Sean Mackinlay.

Statistics collected by the pool staff throughout the last season indicate that Area A residents of account for roughly a quarter of pool users (28 per cent in May/June, and 23 per cent in July/August).

should be taken with a grain of salt. However, 90.9 per cent of guests who identified themselves as Area A residents, said they believed the pool should be a shared service. Area A Director Garry Habart, and CSRD CAO Charles Hamilton were in attendance at the meeting, and indicated they weren’t adverse to contributing to this shared service, although

Information session on Oct. 8 FROM PAGE 11 In the next few weeks, Trail council will be meeting to discuss property tax allocation and property tax impacts with this new funding. The goal for the library and Trail Historical Society is to reduce the cost of the proposed Riverfront Centre by $2 million to ease the strain on Trail taxpayers. If the referendum doesn’t pass, Gibson says the grant money will have to go back where it came from. “The grant funding is conditional on the referendum passing, so we would just lose that money,” she said. The library board and the historical society are in the midst of an education campaign and Gibson says it isn’t over until residents hit the voting booths. “The historical society and the library have been at every market this past summer providing information,” she said. “There will also be another information flyer delivered to every house in Trail prior to the referendum.” Gibson also wants to let the public know there there will be an open house regarding the future of the Riverfront Centre on Oct. 8. The open house is at the Aquatic Centre from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. and anyone is welcome. Representatives from both the library and the historical society will be there to answer questions and hear ideas. The library and the historical society are also available to provide information on the vote and the facility to different groups around town. “The historical society and the library are going out and talking to groups within our community, so if anyone would like anymore information and for us to come and talk to them, that would be great,” she said. perhaps not as much as the Town wants. “We have this report, which is pretty clear…I’m going to argue for the user stats as the basis for the cost proportions because I believe that’s what’s fair to the rural residents,” said Hamilton. He argued that if the formula becomes too complicated, and they ask for more than the CSRD thinks its share should be then it will get stuck in bureaucracy.

Provincial Kelowna

City gets low marks for attracting newcomers By Kathy Michaels Kelowna Capital News

A local business owner says he’s concerned with Kelowna’s prospects for attracting newcomers after reading through a recent report on the subject from the Conference Board of Canada. Mike McLoughlin has been the co-owner of Medi-Kel, a family practice and Walk-In clinic, since 2008. This city, he said, is a beautiful place to live, but when it comes to recruiting doctors to run his practice, he’s had nothing but trouble. “They come for six months, then they leave,” he said. Of recent note, McLoughlin hired a Quebec doctor who didn’t manage to stay

a year. He left, citing problems with the cost of real estate and limited employment opportunities for his wife, as his reason to leave. “I couldn’t figure out why we had such difficulty, but now I can,” McLoughlin said, gesturing toward the lengthy report from the Conference Board, where Kelowna gets an abundance of failing grades, yet manages to come out with a C. “We are the worst performing in housing and affordability,” he said. Kelowna also picked up Ds in the categories of innovation, education and society. For the second time in a row, however, it got an A for the environment.

“We are the worst performing in housing and affordability.” Mike McLoughlin

The report titled, City Magnets III: Benchmarking the Attractiveness of 50 Canadian Cities analyzes and benchmarks what’s making Canadian cities appealing to migrants. The cities’ performance, from 2006 to 2011, is compared on 43 indicators grouped into seven categories: Society, health, economy, environment, education, innovation, and housing. Data is based on

the 2011 Census and National Household Survey. “Attracting skilled workers is crucial to Canada’s competitiveness,” said Alan Arcand, associate director of the board’s centre for municipal studies. “Cities that fail to attract new people will struggle to stay prosperous and vibrant.” The conference board suggests that cities in this class should strive to do better to boost their appeal to newcomers. McLoughlin, who has political ambitions, thinks it’s something that could be worked on through the municipal level of government. The Central Okanagan Economic Development Commission said there will be a need to fill 20,000 new positions in the next 10 to 15 years, and getting that done will take a co-ordinated

effort. “People say some of these things are out of our control. But, let’s work with the community to address them,” he said. “We, as a city, need leadership and stewardship to address the challenges.” Although he doesn’t have the answers to all ills, he believes that everything from working with businesses to incorporate human resources plans to creating more affordable housing options would improve the attractiveness of the city. The board gave top marks to Vancouver, Waterloo, Calgary, Ottawa, Richmond Hill, Ont., and St. John’s. Cities that were given a C grade with “room for improvement” alongside Kelowna, were Montreal, London, Kitchener, Richmond and Surrey.

Doctors urge province to take a stand on public health care THE CANADIAN PRESS VANCOUVER - With provincial and territorial health ministers gathered in Banff over the next few days, advocates of Canada’s public health-care system are urging them to protect medicare. The British Columbia government is in negotiations right now to end a longrunning dispute with the private Cambie Surgery Clinic in Vancouver. The B.C. Health Coalition says the outcome will send a message about the province’s stance on the public system. They’re urging B.C. to order a full audit of the clinic and impose hefty penalties for almost $500,000 in over-billing during a 30-day period, which came to light in an audit two years ago. The coalition, along with the group Canadian Doctors for Medicare, has written to B.C. Health Minister Terry Lake, Attorney General Suzanne Anton and the chairman of the Medical Services Commission, asking them to ensure the clinic is in compliance with medicare rules. Coalition spokeswoman Dr. Vanessa Brcic (burr-sik) says there has been a lack of federal leadership on health care affecting all provinces and territories, but other jurisdictions have not seen the emergence of as many for-profit health services as B.C.

Minister floats gas tax shift to ferries to help communities tackle rising fares By Jeff Nagel Black Press

Tr a n s p o r t a t i o n Minister Todd Stone is proposing coastal communities turn over federal gas tax transfers they receive to shore up ferry service and help keep a lid on fares. The idea is getting a cool reception from mayors and councillors in ferry-dependent areas because it would mean the sacrifice of the federal gasoline tax money they now use to fund local infrastructure. But Stone argued it would not be unlike the decision of Metro Vancouver cities to dedicate all of their federal gas tax transfers to TransLink for public transit. “Let’s think outside the box,” Stone said Thursday outside the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention. “(Let’s) have a discussion around gas tax as a potential source of revenue for BC Ferries service, which would have the effect of applying downward pressure

on fares.” Stone said coastal communities get nearly $30 million a year in gas tax transfers, an amount that represents about a sixth of the $180 million a year the province spends to subsidize BC Ferries operations. He suggested the redeployment of “some if not all” of that $30 million would help meet local demands for basic levels of ferry service. The proposal would need the support of local communities or else it’s dead in the water, and even then it’s unclear how it might work. Gas tax transfers are subject to federal rules that allow the money to go only to eligible local capital projects, not to operating expenses or to provincial services. B.C. cities are lobbying Ottawa to loosen the restrictions on how the money can be spent and Premier Christy Clark said Friday the federal government should “step up” and

enable gas taxes as a potential source for the ferry system. Campbell River Coun. Claire Moglove, co-chair of a UBCM committee on ferry issues, said she doubts Vancouver Island cities would agree to give up gas tax money they rely on for costly local projects such as water systems and sewage treatment plants. “This gas tax issue is a bit of a red herring,” she said. “This is a provincial transportation system that requires proper funding from the province.” Moglove said Stone’s reference to the use of the gas tax for transit in Metro Vancouver is “comparing apples and oranges” because taxpayers in all other regions of B.C. pay hospital capital taxes that do not apply in Metro Vancouver, leaving more local taxation room there to fund TransLink. She said the ferry system has 92 per cent operating cost recovery from fares.

The remaining eight per cent that’s funded by the province – $180 million – is about one third of the $550-million operating budget for the highways system, which Moglove said is generally untolled with no expectation of cost recovery. “Why do ferry users have to pay 92 per cent of the operating cost of BC Ferries?” she demanded. “Why is it different for the coastal highway – ferries – as opposed to highways in the North, the Okanagan or the Kootenays?” Stone has been firm that the province won’t raise taxes to fund BC Ferries and that relief from high fares must come through efficiencies. The transportation minister has been sparring with Island mayors and councillors since the Sept. 10 release of a UBCM study that concluded rapidly rising ferry fares have driven down ridership and damaged the provincial economy.

NDP launch bid to improve question period by giving speaker more power

Alberta

Ranchers join forces to conserve large swath of land THE CANADIAN PRESS CALGARY - Southern Alberta ranchers have banded together to preserve a huge swath of almost untouched native grassland that some call a prairie Serengeti. “Everything - everything that was there when Columbus arrived is still there,” said Larry Simpson of the Nature Conservancy of Canada, which helped put the deal together. “That’s what makes this area so special.” The 72 members of the Waldron Grazing Co-op have agreed to sign a conservation easement on more than 12,000 hectares of rolling prairie and foothills that their group has owned since 1962. The land, located on either side of Highway 22 south of Longview, Alta., was being eyed by developers and could have been sold for at least $75 million, said Simpson. Instead, the ranchers agreed to easements that forbid subdividing, draining of wetlands, or cultivation of the land. “We’re not in it for the money, we’re really not,” said rancher Tim Nelson from Stavely, Alta., chairman of co-op board. “We decided we could preserve the land and we could also continue to use it the way we’ve used it for the last 52 years. “It’s not going to be houses out there, it’s not going to be hotels. It’s just going to be like it is.”

The deal allows the co-op to retain title and keep grazing the roughly 10,000 cattle currently home on the range. Some energy development exists on carefully restricted terms and future proposals would be considered case by case. “It’s not like a park, it’s not like an ecological reserve,” Simpson said. “Those are really important, but when we looked at the settled area of Alberta, we realized that if we were going to go to war over every single well that was going to be drilled we would not get much done. We’re going to focus on conserving working landscapes as best we can.” The total cost of the project was $37.5 million, with $12.2 million from the provincial government and $4 million from Ottawa. The ranchers received $15 million - money they’ve already used to purchase another 5,700 hectares of adjacent grassland which they also plan to place under conservation easement. The Waldron lands connect a large wildland park and even larger forest reserve. With the exception of bison, they are home to all the species that were originally native to the Prairies, including grizzly and black bears, wolves, cougars, hawks, eagles, elk, moose, deer, coyotes and foxes. Nelson said public access on foot is permitted.

THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA - Last week’s controversial series of non-sequitur government answers prompted a renewed Opposition bid for parliamentary reform Monday - a motion the government quickly consigned to certain doom. Even so, the New Democrat motion designed to give the Speaker more power to block irrelevant answers - seemed to have at least a temporary impact on the Conservatives, who largely stayed on topic during the cut-andthrust of the daily question period. The New Democrats had been hoping to extend the Speaker’s authority in the Commons over not just the relevance of the questions being asked during question period, but also the answers provided by the government. Speaker Andrew Scheer said last week he was powerless to intervene when Tory MP Paul Calandra answered NDP questions about Canadian soldiers in Iraq by pos-

ing his own questions about the Opposition’s Middle East policy. “The most important part of Parliament isn’t the question, it’s the answer,” NDP House leader Peter Julian said Monday in introducing the motion. “For the Speaker to not have the ability to intervene on the relevance, or on repetition, of answers to extremely important questions that are being asked in the House of Commons is something that I think most Canadians find aggravating.” But the majority Conservatives argued the motion goes too far and engaged in a bit of procedural trickery Monday to all but ensure it never comes to a vote. Government House leader Peter Van Loan said the proposal would hamper the government’s ability to defend itself or question the opposition or compare the approaches of other parties. He called Canada’s question period the most accountable in

the world. “This NDP motion, which is a one-way street, seeks to fully constrain the government without applying any new standards at all to the opposition to elevate the level of question period,” he said. The Liberals have said they would support the motion. The government’s decision to effectively kill the motion proves the Conservatives realize that Canadians don’t approve of their behaviour in the House, Julian said. “We see obviously a government that is scared of voting against the NDP motion so instead of voting against it they try to throw in some procedural tricks hoping to hide it from the population,” Julian said. “They won’t be able to do that.” Calandra issued a tearful apology Friday for his behaviour in the House - a decision apparently prompted by Conservative constituents and members of cabinet who

were angered by the performance. On Monday, the government appeared to turn over a new leaf, putting forth several cabinet ministers to answer questions in some cases, quite directly. NDP MP Megan Leslie asked when the question of Canada’s military involvement in Iraq would come to a vote. “I say very clearly, if there were to be a combat mission, we would seek to bring it before Parliament as a matter of confidence,” replied Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird. The NDP motion comes after all parties in the House agreed to support Conservative MP Michael Chong’s so-called Reform Act, which seeks to provide individual MPs more power to turf their leaders, and to give grassroots riding organizations more say over who represents them. But in order to win that support, Chong was forced to make its provisions far more flexible.

College offers advice on prescribing medicinal pot THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO - The College of Family Physicians has issued guidelines to Canada’s more than 30,000 primary-care doctors about which patients should and should not get prescriptions for medical marijuana. College CEO Dr. Francine Lemire said the lack of research into cannabis has left many family doctors unsure about which patients could benefit from medical-grade weed and what dose should be prescribed. “We’re aware that there is demand out there by patients for dried cannabis for medical purposes,” Lemire said Monday from Ottawa. “We’re aware of the relative lack of evidence, good solid evidence, for when to authorize or not to authorize (its use). “And we felt that it was important for us

to share what evidence there is with physicians and to support them in how to prescribe.” The college’s recommendations, which are spelled out on the organization’s website, say there is no research evidence supporting the use of cannabis for low back pain or fibromyalgia, but it could be considered for nerve-damage pain caused by such conditions as multiple sclerosis, metastatic cancer, shingles, diabetic neuropathy and severe injury. But even in the case of such pain-causing conditions, doctors should consider using medical pot only after trying standard medications and therapies, including pharmaceutical cannabinoids, the document says. The guidelines say patients under 25, those with substance abuse, cardiovascular

or respiratory disease, and women who are pregnant, planning to become pregnant or breastfeeding should

not be prescribed medical marijuana. When its use is considered appropriate, the family doc-

tor should regularly monitor the patient’s response to treatment and discontinue authorization.

Is CUPE running your city hall?

T

he big story at this year’s Union of B.C. Municipalities convention was a report commissioned by the B.C. government that reveals municipal pay increases for unionized staff have been running at twice the rate of provincial raises. When I asked Premier Christy Clark about the intent of this report, leaked just before the annual UBCM convention, she was blunt. It’s to get this issue onto the agenda for the November municipal elections, which the province has decreed shall be for four-year terms instead of three. After local elections, discussions with surviving and incoming municipal politicians will resume. Things have been going pretty well for the main municipal union, the Canadian Union of Public Employees, for the last couple of decades. As local election turnout has gone from bad to

worse, municipal employees themselves have become an increasingly dominant voting bloc. Then there are the “labour councils” in urban centres, now almost entirely fronts for public sector unions. They quietly survey council candidates to determine their level of affection for ever-growing public payrolls, and dole out campaign funds accordingly. Sometimes they organize full slates, with cuddly names like “Protect Coquitlam” to appeal to low-information voters. During last week’s convention in Whistler, I caught up to Finance Minister Mike de Jong in a brief break from the dozens of meetings cabinet ministers have with mayors, councillors and regional directors. Is the province going to impose some kind of solution? “There’s not some hidden legislative agenda,” de Jong replied. More data

needs to be gathered, and the report shows ongoing problems with management salaries at the provincial level as well. Is this the first step to imposing a tight-fisted centralized bargaining agency, such as the government set up last year to wrestle the B.C. Teachers’ Federation to the ground? “We haven’t formulated our answer,” de Jong said. “What the data does suggest, however, is that there may well be some merit [to centralized bargaining]. One of the recommendations points to a more coordin-

ated approach to some of the negotiations that take place.” Will the new municipal auditor general have a role in this? “The purpose of the auditor was not to become an enforcement mechanism,” de Jong said. “It was to play a traditional audit function on whether taxpayers are getting value for money. To that extent I suppose a municipal auditor might be able to comment on the advantages of coordinating efforts.” NDP leader John Horgan’s attack on the compensation report was as predictable as it was selective. In his speech to delegates, Horgan called it “one-sided, politically motivated, shoddy work” designed to embarrass local politicians on the eve of their elections. Did he question Ernst and Young’s numbers, the pay increases for municipal union staff of 38 per cent between 2001

and 2012, compared to 19 per cent for unionized provincial staff? Did he question their calculation that over that period, inflation totalled 23 per cent? No. The facts being against him, he went with an emotional pitch to distract from them. Recall that during the final days of the teachers’ strike, Horgan suddenly decided that what was really needed was binding arbitration. This was 24 hours after the teachers’ union took that position. So there’s the big question to be considered by voters as local elections draw near. Which candidates are looking out for your interests, and which ones are working on behalf of CUPE? There’s another troubling trend in manipulation of local government that was more evident than ever at the 2014 UBCM convention. I’ll discuss that in a future column.

THE CANADIAN PRESS New York magazine’s Vulture blog talked to Hank Azaria about how he came up with some of the classic voices he created for “The Simpsons.” For Comic Book Guy, he says he imagined an overgrown child and was inspired by a fellow student in college. “By the time I did ‘The Simpsons,’ I was young, 23 or 24, and I already had like 30 to 40 character voices; some were celebrity impressions and some were just people I knew with voices that tickled me,” Azaria says. “(Comic Book Guy) is a know-it-all fanboy, like that guy was. He was very didactic. He made announcements. He had a list. He would tell everybody if they were in his top five or bottom five of the week.” Azaria also describes how he came to voice the show’s other side characters.

Colorado lures Tarantino THE ASSOCIATED PRESS DENVER - Colorado has approved a $5 million incentive package to lure production of the upcoming Quentin Tarantino film “The Hateful Eight.” The state Economic Development Commission approved the package Friday. The Denver Post reports (http://dpo.st/1utJtW5 ) that Colorado’s incentives beat out those of Utah and Wyoming. The film could be filmed on a 900-acre ranch west of the ski town of Telluride, depending on local permit approval.

Glover Rd. sidewalk in need of work I recently read an article in the Trail Times regarding the improvements in the “sidewalk” on Snake Hill near AM Ford (Power Paving, Trail Times, Sept. 23). Are you kidding me? I have lived in West Trail for almost 20 years and have watched the Glover Road access deteriorate quite substantially over those years. The 5th Ave hill in East Trail was given a great makeover for the handful of people that use that hill as a walking access. Snake Hill was given a makeover for pedestrians and their pets, and perhaps for the local

working folks that park their vehicles halfway down the hill. In the meantime, the Glover Road hill has been left to rot in the elements. I watch many people use this sidewalk. These include women with kids, women with strollers, everyday people packing grocery bags and the like. This sidewalk is a menagerie of parts and pieces of blacktop and concrete. A minimal effort was made to improve the sidewalk by patching the edges in some spots. In the winter, the work crews shovel a minimal wide

walking path. The surface is so uneven that the sidewalk plow isn’t used (so as to not damage it, I assume). There is a great many people that walk this hill regularly. Given the state of this sidewalk, it becomes a safety hazard to many. We may only be living in “West Trail”, but this area needs to be looked at as well. The railing that runs up the hill needs to be repaired as well, but that is a different issue at a different time with a different letter. Colin Theobold Trail

DYER

Communist hierarchy would therefore be greatly relieved if Xi lost power, or at least was forced to end the anti-corruption campaign. If he were to surrender to pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong, he would be giving those people an excuse to unite against him in defence of the Communist Party’s monopoly of power, and not just of their own personal interests. Using excessive force to quell the protests, up to and including massacres, would also leave Xi open to criticism, of course, but mainly to criticism from abroad. As we saw in the suppression of the Tienanmen Square protests in 1989, in the end Communist Party cadres will usually support the use of violence in defence of their power and privileges. As for the general public in China, the events in Hong Kong are already represented in the state-controlled media (to the extent that they are reported at all) as the antipatriotic actions of people who are being manipulated by hostile foreign powers. Many ordinary Chinese people won’t believe that, but they probably won’t risk much to support of the people of Hong Kong. (If the protests spread to the mainland, of course, it’s a whole different game.) Xi Jinping would doubtless prefer to win his confrontation with Hong Kong’s pro-democracy movement peacefully, but he will use as much violence as necessary to suppress it. Massacres would do great damage to China’s relations with the rest of the world, but he knows where his priorities lie.

GEORGE CLOONEY-AMAL ALAMUDDIN

Celebrity wedding one of many in romantic Venice

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS VENICE, Italy - The romantic canaled city of Venice has been the venue for 323 weddings of foreign couples this year. Only one has drawn crowds and paparazzi. George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin said “I do” for a second time Monday, celebrating a civil wedding ceremony in Venice’s City Hall on the Grand Canal, greeted by hundreds of well-wishers who waited hours for a glimpse of the newlyweds. The couple tied the knot two days earlier in a private ceremony attended by Hollywood celebrity friends and family in a luxury hotel. They followed up with a required civil procedure, which to be legally recognized must take place on a site designated by the city administration. The newlyweds arrived at the pre-Renaissance Ca’ Farsetti in Clooney’s regular

water taxi, called “Amore,” trailed by dozens of boats with photographers, as has been the case all weekend. Police boats tried to clear their way. Clooney, 53, looked dapper in a grey suit and matching tie, while the bride, 36, wore a cream-colored, short-sleeved jacket with palazzo pants and a matching wide-brimmed hat accented by a navy ribbon. As they exited the boat, Clooney drew his wife’s attention to the crowds on the opposite shore, and they stopped briefly to take in the scene and wave. Clooney then ushered Alamuddin inside, looking up at city employees watching from the surrounding buildings and pointing inside with his thumb as if to say, “I gotta go.” They emerged about 20 minutes later with former Rome Mayor Walter Veltroni, who performed both ceremonies. Veltroni sent the couple off, hugging

Clooney and kissing Alamuddin on the cheek. They continued up the Grand Canal and under the arched Rialto Bridge, crowded with more well-wishers screaming “George, George,” before disappearing up a one-way canal. Clooney’s water taxi driver, who has ferried the actor around on his frequent trips to Venice, was later seen at the airport and indicated that the couple had left. One of the world’s most romantic cities, Venice draws couples from around the world for a fairy tale wedding in wellappointed official wedding halls overlooking the Grand Hotel. According to official statistics for this year, 323 non-Italian couples were married in Venice’s historic centre through Monday. A city employee, who identified herself only as Luisa, said she leaves her window overlooking the Cavalli Palazzo,

where most ceremonies take place, open in the summer just so she can hear the parade of newlyweds being congratulated by loved ones. “There are so many beautiful brides. Every 10 or 15 minutes, they come out and people throw confetti or rose petals,” Luisa said, standing with a group of co-workers who came outside to see Clooney and his bride arrive. “Once there was even a Scotsman in a kilt. Often we find champagne bottles and glasses here in the morning.” The last couple to exchange vows before the Hollywood star and his new bride arrived was Stefanie Eddinger and Gerald Frieder, from Vienna. The couple enjoyed the added energy from the crowd outside awaiting the celebrity newlyweds. “They picked our day,” Frieder said, before stepping outside into a shower of confetti.

Smoke Eaters drop pair to Interior-division rivals BY JIM BAILEY

Times Sports Editor

The Trail Smoke Eaters confirmed what everyone expected; the BCHL’s Interior division will be one heck of a hard place to play this season. Despite two good efforts, the Smokies suffered a 3-1 loss to the Penticton Vees Friday and a 4-2 setback to the Salmon Arm Silverbacks Saturday. “Every team in our division it’s going to be a game like this, it’s going to be a battle,” said Smoke Eater assistant coach Barry Zanier. “There’s no easy games.” Over 1,000 fans attended Friday’s home opener against Penticton and just under that on Saturday against Salmon Arm to see a Smokies team loaded with speed and skill, but icing seven rookies who are still adapting to what is likely the most competitive division in the BCHL. “I think that’s one thing the new kids, the rookies, they are going to have to be mentally tough for that part of it,” said Zanier. “That’s probably going to be the biggest challenge for them, is being mentally tough every shift.” Salmon Arm would score the winner just 29 seconds after the Smoke Eaters tied the game 2-2. Nick Hutchison redirected a Carson Bolduc shot to beat Trail goalie Adam Todd to give the ‘Backs a 3-2 lead 16:12 into the middle frame. The loss puts the Smokies at

Trail Smoke Eaters forward Dallas Calvin is stopped by Salmon Arm goalie Angus Redmond on this thirdperiod attempt, as the Smokies failed to find the equalizer in a 4-2 loss to the Silverbacks on Saturday. 2-2, tied with Vernon for fifth in the Interior division, while Penticton, Merritt Centennials, West Kelowna Warriors, and Salmon Arm are all locked at 3-1 to start the season. Only two other teams in the league, Chilliwack and Prince George, have records above .500. The Smokies dominated the opening 10-minutes of the match, but Salmon Arm got on the board first when Taro Hirose walked out of the corner and

jammed the puck past Todd with under three minutes to play in the opening period. Careless giveaways could have sunk the Smokies early in the second period, but Todd came up with big saves to keep it close. However, the ‘Backs would capitalize on the momentum swing when Shane Danyluk finished a slick passing play from Bryden Marsh and Bolduc to put Salmon Arm up 2-0 at 2:50 of the middle frame.

The Smoke Eaters bounced back, however. After Berezan was sent off for hooking, the line of Jake Lucchini, Dallas Calvin, and Harlan Orr put on a powerplay clinic, displaying great puck control, with Calvin dishing off to Bryan Gerstenfeld who fired a hard pass to Lucchini that the Trail native deftly deflected into the top corner to make it 2-1 at 12:48. Three minutes later the trio would strike again. Lucchini

broke down the right side into the Silverbacks’ zone and slid a perfectly timed pass to the front of the net where a streaking Calvin went forehand-back-hand to beat Salmon Arm goalie Angus Redmond on the glove side to tie it. There was some definite chemistry between the two Trail natives, as both picked up a goal and an assist, something Lucchini says may have started earlier in the summer. “It was good,” said Lucchini. “We went to hockey school this summer and we played together so it kind of carried over. He (Calvin) is a really good player so it’s easy to play with him.” Yet, the line could not beat Redmond in the third, his biggest save coming off the stick of Calvin midway through the period. With the score 3-2, Lucchini and Calvin broke in on a 2-on1; Lucchini saucered a perfect cross-crease pass to Calvin, but Redmond slid across and robbed the former Beaver Valley Nitehawk to preserve the onegoal lead. “They had some opportunities, unfortunately we’re not going to win with one line, we need everybody going,” said Zanier. “You know we come back and tie it up and they come back with a soft goal, where we didn’t have good coverage, and that hurt. It seems we’re always trying to come back and that’s tough.” See VEES, Page 12

Hawks renew winning ways Play Chase at home Saturday

BY TIMES STAFF It was only a matter of time before the Beaver Valley Nitehawks would register their first win of the season, as the Hawks beat the Golden Rockets on Friday 4-1 and followed it up with a 2-1 victory over the Columbia Valley Rockies on Saturday. The Nitehawks broke an 0-3-1-1 record in their opening five matches, with two victories against Eddie Mountain division teams on their first

swing through the East Kootenay. Jace Weeger netted the winning goal against the Rockies with less than eight minutes to play, taking a pass from Mitch Foyle and beating Brody Nelson who faced 36 shots on the night. After a scoreless first period Columbia Valley got on the board when Doan Smith beat Carson Schamerhorn to put the homeside up 1-0. The Hawks would start the come back, eventually capitalizing on a Kellen Marchand spearing penalty, with

Brayden Horcoff converting on a Andrew Miller and Kyle Hope set up to tie it. Schamerhorn stopped 22 shots for the win as the Hawks went 1-for-6 on the power play while Columbia Valley was 0-for-1. Against the Rockets Friday, Tyler Hartman scored twice, and defenceman Lyle Frank netted the winner, as the Nighthawks jumped out to a 3-0 first-period lead on their way to their first victory of the season.

Rockets’ zone ended with an early goal for the Nitehawks after forward Mitch Foyle fired one from the top of the circle past Rockies’ goalie Mitchell Privett just over a minute into the game. A seeing-eye shot through traffic from defenceman Frank made it 2-0 for Beaver Valley, and Tyler Hartman jumped on a big rebound to cash in with just under three minutes remaining in the opening 20 to make it 3-0 Hawks.

A brief look ahead to MLB playoffs

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS So, is this the year of Buck Showalter, Bryce Harper and a Beltway Series? Or perhaps Albert Pujols, Yasiel Puig and a Freeway Series? Maybe a Bay Area matchup or something from the Show Me State. Plenty of World Series possibilities this year. And a lot to enjoy way before we get there, now that the playoff brackets are set. It took Game 162 to settle three races Sunday, a final afternoon that featured Derek Jeter’s farewell and Jordan Zimmermann’s no-hitter. “Just an epic day for an epic season,” Nationals outfielder Denard Span said. A look ahead: FRESH FACES: Mike Trout, Stephen Strasburg and Adam Dunn all get their first playoff chance. Favored for the AL MVP after two near-misses, the 23-year-old Trout can boost his stature even more when the Angels host the AL wild card in the best-of-five division opener Thursday. Strasburg is rarin’ to go after Washington held him out of the 2012 post-season because of a pitch limit, a decision that still rankles some in D.C. - the Nats host the NL wild card Friday. Dunn has

played 2,001 games, the most by any active big leaguer never in the playoffs. The slugging DH tries to help Oakland advance in the AL wild-card game Tuesday night at Kansas City, while the Royals make their first playoff appearance since 1985. LATE LIFTS: Jon Lester, David Price and Huston Street each got traded in midseason, deals designed with big games in mind. Price delivered the AL Central crown to Detroit on Sunday, and will pitch again when the Tigers take on Baltimore. Lester tries to extend his post-season brilliance when he starts for the A’s against James Shields in the wildcard game - the former Boston lefty is 3-0 vs. the Royals this season. Street has smoothly fit into the closer’s role for the Angels. MOST VALUABLE PLANS: Buster Posey and Andrew McCutchen split the last two NL MVP awards, but the San Francisco catcher has a couple of things the Pittsburgh centre fielder really wants - namely, a pair of World Series rings. By Wednesday night, only one of the stars will have a chance to earn the jewelry this year. Posey and the Giants visit McCutchen and the Pirates in the NL wild-card Wednesday night, with

San Francisco’s Madison Bumgarner set to start against Edinson Volquez. BANGED UP: Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw and St. Louis catcher Yadier Molina each spent time on the disabled list this year. Healthy now, they meet in a neat Game 1 Friday in Los Angeles - it’ll be 20-game winner Adam Wainwright vs. Kershaw, fresh off becoming the first pitcher to lead the majors in ERA for four straight years. Still to be determined: How much will Josh Hamilton play for the Angels? The former MVP has been limited to just one game since Sept. 4 because of side and shoulder injuries. Definitely out: Orioles third baseman Manny Machado and catcher Matt Wieters, both gone after season-ending surgery. THE DRUG CLOUD: Someday, maybe PEDs won’t be so intertwined with HRs, RBIs and ERA. But performance-enhancing drugs are still a part of the conversation. Orioles slugger Chris Davis, the major league home run champ last year, was suspended 25 games in midSeptember after a positive test for an amphetamine. He’s out at least through the division series. Baltimore’s Nelson Cruz led the majors with 40 homers this year and Johnny Peralta hit a team-leading 21 for St. Louis - both players were suspended for 50 games last year in Biogenesis investigation.

unanswered goals on their way to a 3-1 victory. Joshua Laframboise netted the winner with just nine seconds remaining in the second period, taking a centering pass from Mitch Newsome and firing it into the open net to give the Vees a 2-1 lead heading into the third. The Smokies were able to keep the highflying rookie line of Tyson Jost, Lewis ZerterGossage, and Liam Finlay off the scoreboard, but it was veterans like former Vernon Viper Demico Hannoun and Cowichan Valley’s Steen Cooper that counted for the Vees. “They had a lot of odd-man rushes, but then we took the play to them,” said Smokies assistant Craig Clare. “We didn’t get the breaks we needed around the net, even tonight. If we got guys going to the net a little hungrier we might have a better chance.” The Smoke Eaters outshot the Vees 32-21 but couldn’t solve Penticton goalie Hunter Miska who was named third star on the night. Laframboise received first star and Davidson the second star in his first game back after suffering a concussion. “I don’t think we showed what type of team we are yet,” added Clare. “We had glimpses of it at the Showcase, and even though these were close games, it wasn’t even close to the potential we can play to, so that’s what’s disappointing. We didn’t have the same jump we did in Chilliwack.” Trail hosts the Cowichan Valley Capitals on Friday at the Cominco Arena at 7:30 p.m.

No respect for ‘Big Bang Theory’

It’s one of the top rated shows in Canada and the United States and has won a boatload of Emmys, but “Big Bang Theory” doesn’t get much respect. And that’s unfair, argues the Daily Beast. It would be so easy for the “Big Bang” creators to dumb down the show to goose its ratings even further but to their credit, they haven’t, says Daily Beast writer Kevin Fallon. “If ‘the Big Bang Theory’ was anything like most long-running sitcoms in their respective later years, Sheldon would just run around shouting ‘Bazinga!’ for 22 minutes each week and everyone would collect a paycheck,” Fallon writes. “This is also a show that decided that in order to get better it needed to beef up its female presence. “And it did. It can’t be undersold that a wildly popular show in this day and age recognized the importance for a female perspective, cast two actresses who weren’t your typical network comedy hires - Mayim Bialik as Amy and Melissa Rauch as Bernadette - and instantly saw the show get better. In fact, some of its strongest moments since involved the show’s girls.”

THE CANADIAN PRESS The surprise TV hit of last season, “The Blacklist,” could very well continue to shock audiences, says star James Spader. In an interview with Collider, Spader says the show’s creators are very comfortable with killing off major characters and hints more big changes could be coming soon. “There is no question that, on our show, we attempt to turn things on their ear when we are able, and (killing characters) is certainly a very effective way of doing that, but it really has to relate to story, and it did last year,” Spader says. “It will be very hard predict how this season unfolds and whether that will translate into major characters on our show disappearing. I don’t know if I can really speak to that, in an articulate way, without telling you something that I shouldn’t tell.” “The Blacklist” airs on Monday nights on Global. *****

Box office

‘The Equalizer’ has big debut for Denzel THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK - Flexing his star power, Denzel Washington led the thriller “The Equalizer” to a $35 million debut, according to studio estimates Sunday. The Sony-Columbia Pictures release dominated the weekend box office, surpassing some expectations for the film. Washington plays a former commando living a quiet life in Boston when the disappearance of a prostitute acquaintance (Chloe Grace Moretz) lures him into a battle with the Russian mafia. The strong opening marks the third-best debut in Washington’s career, trailing only 2012’s “Safe House” ($40.1 million) and 2007’s “American Gangster” ($43.6 million). Washington, who will turn 60 in December, has been one of Hollywood’s most reliable draws without the benefit of anything like a superhero franchise. “He’s the very model of box-office consistency,” said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for box-office tracker Rentrak. “I can’t think of another star that’s this consistent, that remains this rock solid over the course of three decades.” “The Equalizer” reteams Washington with director Antoine Fuqua,“ who helmed 2001’s ”Training Day.“ That film memorably earned Washington an Oscar for best actor. A sequel to ”The Equalizer,“ which is loosely based on the ‘80s CBS series, is already in development. “We feel like we have a real opportunity with a sequel and a possible franchise with this film,” said Rory Bruer, head of distribution for Sony. Last weekend’s top performer, the young-adult novel adaptation “The Maze Runner,” starring Dylan O’Brien, slid to second with $17.5 million in its second week. The 20th Century Fox release also has a sequel in the works, due out next September The stop-motion animated release “The Boxtrolls” opened in third place with $17.3 million. It’s the best opening yet for Laika, the Oregon-based animation studio whose previous films are the Oscar-nominated “Coraline” and “ParaNorman.” Critics have been less enthusiastic about “The Boxtrolls,” about a boy who’s raised by nocturnal, box-wearing critters beneath the British village of Cheesebridge. But the Focus Features release capitalized on the relative dearth of family-friendly options in theatres.

This Thanksgiving, it’s my family’s turn and your kids won’t be around. Enjoy spending the holidays by yourself. -- Had It Dear Had It: Have you or your husband told your in-laws that the reason you no longer include them with your family is because they behave so disrespectfully? We can’t guarantee that it would make any difference, but sometimes, given the opportunity and the understanding, people can learn to change their behavior -- especially if the alternative is so lonely.

to her dorm room for a popcorn party and make sure the roommate also helps make the popcorn. She can do this any night the boyfriend plans to sleep over. If she is having trouble finding enough friends to come over,

she could take photos all over campus and invite people to come by to see them. Or ask other students about the best places to hang out or which classes to take. These things will help her make friends and also keep the dorm room too crowded for

canoodling. -- Did It Myself Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column. Please email your questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net.

couples who are obviously miserable and sniping at each other but insist on staying together for the sake of the children are not providing the loving, stable environment that children need. And Phil should absolutely not be confiding in your teenage daughters about your marital difficulties. It’s manipulative and inappropriate. Shame on him. Dear Annie: This is for my in-laws, who wonder why we don’t have joint parties with both sides of the family: When your son and I married, I had the crazy notion that our families could get together with the expectation that everyone would get along and behave civilly. Apparently, you didn’t share that idea. I remember the snide comments, the ridicule about my family and the hurtful jokes made regarding our nationality. You couldn’t even be in the same room without saying some-

2014 Conceptis Puzzles, Dist. by King Features Syndicate, Inc.

Dear Annie: I have been married to “Phil” for 15 years. Between the two of us, we have eight children. Our youngest is still in school. The problem is, I’m not happy anymore. I’ve made mistakes, stupid ones, including flirting with other men. Phil isn’t completely innocent, either, but he claims if I weren’t talking to these other men, he wouldn’t have approached other women. My oldest daughter takes Phil’s side and says I ruined the family. I don’t think he should have been running to her to complain when she was only 16. She’s since moved out, and he’s now telling our next oldest daughter, who is 14, about our problems. I think this is sick and immature. Phil recently told me he was giving me the “opportunity” to leave, although I don’t need his permission. I’m staying because I refuse to abandon my

Leisure

YourByhoroscope Francis Drake For Wednesday, Oct. 1, 2014 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Be patient with authority figures today. Some of you are almost ready to lose it today. You don’t want to do that. Don’t say anything you will regret later. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You might encounter difficulties with people from another culture or a different background. Similarly, frustrations regarding travel, publishing, the media, medicine and the law might arise. Patience! GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) This is a poor day for disputes about shared property, taxes, debt, inheritances and anything having to do with insurance matters. Because these disputes could be nasty, sidestep them if you can. CANCER (June 21 to July 22)

Tuesday, September 30, 2014 Trail Times

This is not a good day to have an important discussion with a partner or close friend. People quickly go on the defensive. Choose another day. Chill out. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Although you might have great ideas about introducing reforms and improvements to where you work, don’t do it today. People will take offense. Timing is everything. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Parents need to be patient with children today in order to avoid hissy fits and meltdowns. It’s just what it is. Similarly, be patient with romantic partners to avoid a scene. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) This is not an ideal day for important family discussions, because people will express their feelings strongly! It’s better to discuss matters when calmer minds can prevail.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) You will be convincing if you have to write, sell, market, teach, act or communicate your wishes to others today. In fact, they might feel intimidated because you are so strong and forthright. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) You might feel obsessed with getting your way with a financial deal today. Similarly, you might be

obsessed about wanting to buy something. Just cool it. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Relations with females will be intense today. You might have an idea in your mind that you just can’t let go of. (Try to lighten up.) AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Something hidden behind the scenes might upset you today, but you probably won’t say anything. This is

just as well, because arguments can be nasty today. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) You will have a powerful discussion with someone today, probably a female. It’s almost as if you attract powerful people to you. Oy! Be polite. YOU BORN TODAY You take a long-range look at life, and you prepare for it. You like to involve yourself with capable, accomplished
