Elections results for City of Kelowna

KELOWNA CIVIC ELECTION

New mayor, new era at city hall Alistair Waters

Colin Basran accepts congratulations from supporters on Saturday night after being elected as the new mayor for Kelowna. wife and other family members as well as voters and vowed to keep the city moving ahead.

“I don’t take this lightly,” he told the crowd.

While the mantra of the current city council has been “open for business,” the mayorelect said he wants the new mantra for the next council to be “open for opportunity” not just “open for business” as the last council proclaimed.

“It should be social as well,” said Basran, Rutland born and raised, third-generation Canadian of IndoCandian decent.

“I want to see a balanced community.”

Basran, who will be sworn in with the rest of the new council members Dec. 1, will take over from outgoing Mayor Walter Gray, who did not seek re-election.

In his remarks, Basran thanked Gray and departing councillors Robert Hobson and Gerry Zimmermann for teaching him a great deal during his three years serving with them on the current council. Neither Hobson nor Zimmermann sought re-election.

ALISTAIR WATERS/CAPITAL NEWS

In the end, it wasn’t close.

Kelowna voters elected Colin Basran, 37, the city’s youngest person and first person of colour to win the mayor’s chair, elevating the realtor and former television news reporter from being a one-term city councillor to mayor of the largest city in the B.C. Interior.

According to results released by the City of Kelowna on election night, Basran won the race by a wide margin, 6,376 votes, over his much more experienced main challenger, former mayor Sharon Shepherd, who ran what she described as a “grassroots” budget campaign that did not even have a campaign office.

He took all but one polls, even besting Shepherd in her own Mission neighbourhood.

“Thank you for embracing a new generation of leadership,” Basran told a cheering crowd of a few hundred supporters who gathered in the Coast Capri Hotel’s ballroom Saturday night to celebrate his victory.

With all polls reporting, Basran took 56.7 per cent of the vote, (16,888 votes) easily besting Shepherd, who garnered 35.3 per cent of the vote (10,512 votes).

The six other mayoral candidates,Chuck Hardy (1,143 votes or 3.84 per cent), Kelly Row (548 votes or 1.84 per cent), Glendon Smedley (84 votes or 0.28 per cent), Sam Condy (80 votes or 0.27 per cent) and James Murphy (78 votes or 0.26 per cent finished well back.

Basran thanked supporters, campaign workers, his parents, his

Sharon Shepherd is given a consoling hug by her husband Mike Shepherd after it became clear she was not going to win the Kelowna mayoral race.

But he saved his biggest, and most heartfelt thanks for another departing council colleague, Andre Blanleil.

“This (win) is as much for him as it is for me,” Basran said, pointing to clearly emotional Blanleil in the crowd.

Later Basran said he is very close with Blanleil, considers him a mentor and even consulted him before announcing his plan to seek the mayor’s chair back in April.

He said later that if Blanleil had run for mayor, he would not have run and would have

supported his friend.

Basran said the fact he is the youngest person and first person of colour ever elected mayor shows Kelowna is more inclusive than ever.

His said his great uncle was elected the first Indo-Canadian mayor in B.C. when he won the mayor’s race in Lillooet in the 1960s and he was following in his great uncle’s footsteps.

“I’m proud to be carrying on the tradition,” said Basran.

For the mayor-elect, work on his four key platform issues, the

economy—creating in his words “jobs for tomorrow” through innovation—providing affordable and attainable housing, looking after the most vulnerable in society and promoting arts and culture will start as soon as he meets and sits down to talk with his new council members.

Joining him on council will be returning incumbents Luke Stack, Gail Given, Maxine DeHart and Mohini Singh, as well as newcomers Brad Seiben, Tracy Gray and Ryan Donn. Former city councillor Charlie Hodge rounds out the eight councillors who were handed the new four-year mandate by voters Saturday.

For Hodge, the election was a redemption of sorts after he was successfully targeted for ouster from council in the 2011 election by a group of local businesspeople calling themselves FourChange.

It’s successor, FourKelowna, endorsed Basran, the incumbent councillors who were running, as well as Seiben, Gray, Donn and unsuccessful candidate Laura Thurnheer.

In his victory speech Basran said he wants the city to become known as much for being a place to do business as it is for its recreational opportunities.

And that, he said, can be done through economic and social innovation and measures to make the city the best and most livable city of its size in Canada.

Meanwhile, the mood was much more sombre at the Shepherd camp.

With officials at each poll, her campaign knew early on that the numbers were just not there for the

We now know what Kelowna Mayor Walter Gray will do after he leaves office at the end of the month.

The B.C. government has announced the appointment of Gray as the new chairman for ICBC’s board of directors.

He will begin his role as chair on Nov. 30, 2014.

Gray, who did not seek re-election as mayor, said he made his decision not to run months before being approached by Premier Christy Clark and Transportation Minister

Todd Stone about taking over as ICBC’s chairman.

That discussion, he said, took place in September.

He said he did not seek the ICBC chairmanship and was surprised to be offered it. However, he eagerly accepted what he described as the “challenge.”

Gray served a total of 16 years in municipal politics, with numerous terms on council, both as a councillor and as mayor.

Before his time at city hall, he was the owner and operator of five radio stations in the Okanagan/ Kootenay.

He has served as a director of FortisBC, is a former director of BC Transit, Telefilm Canada, Hall and Gray Broadcasting and Sun Country Properties, and

is a past president of the BC Association of Broadcasters.

“This appointment as board chair is an incredible honour and I look forward to serving the citizens of B.C. in this capacity with the goal of keeping ICBC rates as low and as affordable as possible for all ICBC customers,” said Gray.

This is the first time that a board chairman of ICBC has been appointed from the Interior of B.C. Previous chairmen and women have come from Metro Vancouver.

“I am delighted with this new appointment.

Walter Gray brings experience, knowledge and commitment, and I know he is excited to roll up his sleeves and start in his new role,” said Stone.

MAYOR FROM A3 former mayor to reclaim the job she lost to Walter Gray in 2011.

In fact, her supporters had the numbers from the polls before the city released them on its website.

Shepherd said she knew from the first few polls that reported it was not to be her night.

But Shepherd said she did not regret running the low key, “grassroots budget” campaign that she did and felt she stayed true to herself, running on her record and her merit.

She said in retrospect, avoiding a debate with Basran at the UDI lunch may have hurt her in the eyes of some voters.

But she said her decision not to attend because the other six mayoral candidates were not invited was something she felt was right. “You have to be true to yourself,” she said.

Asked if she had any advice for Basran, given his lack of political office experience, Shepherd smiled and said “learn fast.”

In the Central Okanagan Board of Education race in Kelowna, incumbents Chris Gorman and Rollie Caccihioni were returned and newcomers Lee-Anne Tiede and Lee Mossman were elected as trustees. awaters@kelownacapnews.com

CENTRAL OKANAGAN WEST

Ex-fire chief wins rural RDCO seat Richard Rolke Black Press reporter

The North Westside’s new elected representative says he wants to focus on residents’ needs.

Wayne Carson rose to the top of the polls Saturday, receiving 414 votes in Central Okanagan West.

He was followed by Marsali MacIver at 125 and Eric Von Krosigk at 47 votes.

“My platform was all about community and restoring its voice,” said Carson, who takes over from retiring director Jim Edgson.

“I want them to have input on services and taxes.”

Carson wants to establish advisory committees to review key

community issues and then take any recommendations to town hall meetings for input.

“We can come up with plans that truly represent the community,” he said.

Carson will now sit at the board table at the Regional District of Central Okanagan, an organization he had a significant conflict with last year.

Carson, who had been North Westside fire chief for 19 years, resigned Sept. 16, 2013, claiming he had no choice given allegations and job changes being made by the regional district.

He was originally suspended by the regional district for three days in June but details around

that circumstance have never been made public.

Carson then returned to duties after the suspension but a leave of absence began July 8, 2013. RDCO has always indicated that Carson requested the leave but Carson has denied that occurred.

Carson says he has moved on from the dispute and he insists he can work with RDCO staff.

“It will be a straight-forward management issue. When I was the chief, I worked for them and now as director, they work for me,” he said.

“It’s a matter of doing an elected official’s job. If everyone does their job, everyone gets along.”

High school student mock vote favoured Basran Most of them aren’t old enough to vote just yet, but Central Okanagan high school students cast ballots in a mock civic election.

Kelowna’s teens chose Colin Basran to be this city’s newly elected mayor.

His would-be council included, Ryan Donn, Tracy Gray, Bobby Kennedy, Alan Monk, Luke Stack, Ken Chung, Cal Condy and Maxine Dehart.

Students from 11 schools across the Central Okanagan took part in the mock election which was held by CIVIX and is aimed at raising awareness of election issues among youth.

It’s the eighth time thousands of high school students across B.C. have been polled in the two days leading up to the

election. Representatives from CIVIX said the results tend to mirror the real thing.

The votes were tallied as follows: Colin Basran, 481 Sam Condy, 225

Chuck Hardy, 70 James Murphy, 34 Kelly Row, 60 Sharon Shepherd, 235

Mental state at the heart of mother’s violent death Kathy Michaels kmichaels@kelowncapnews.com

The future of a Kelowna man who fatally attacked his mother with a hammer two years ago will soon be decided in court, but a

legal resolution is unlikely to console any of those closest to the violent crime.

Conor Frederick Grossmith, 26, has bipolar disorder and lived with his parents until Sept. 13, 2012, when he entered

his mother’s room as she lay in her bed and, with a hammer, repeatedly struck her in the head.

Kathleen Gilchrist, 57, died just over a week later as a result of her injuries, having never gained consciousness from the

Back Pain Effectively Treated At Kelowna Clinic One third of the population suffers from chronic back pain, which impacts everything from quality of life to relationships and careers.

Why is chronic pain so difficult to treat? First, each painful episode creates inflammation and scar tissue. Scar tissue has only 70% the strength of normal tissue, making it prone to re-injury. Scar tissue is not flexible, so with every movement comes more inflammation and scar tissue, leading to recurrences of back pain. Second, scar tissue alters the functioning of surrounding joints, reducing the nutrition getting to the joints (a major contributor to disc degeneration and joint arthritis).

to live with it. I want you to know that there is hope, that there is a highly successful, evidence-based treatment for many types of chronic pain. It is being used increasingly by orthopedic surgeons to stabilize their patients’ conditions and create longer lasting results and it has been used as an adjunct in my office for the past five years with success rates of up to 91%.

This treatment is called Shockwave therapy (or ESWT) and while it was initially developed to break up kidney stones, it has been used for the past 20 years to effectively break up scar tissue, restore the function of the muscle and promote new blood vessel growth, stimulating faster healing. It is effective on many conditions including (but not limited to) back, foot, and arm pain. Results are often experienced within a few visits; treatment is covered by many insurance companies.

In my practice, I see back, neck, and shoulder pain, lower back and sciatic pain, and post-surgical pain. It’s been there for months to years and many therapies have failed to relieve it because most therapies work best on recent injuries.

attack. Shortly thereafter her son, who she and her husband shared a close relationship with, was charged with second degree murder.

“It’s always a sad situation when family members caring for people with mental illness are the ones hurt,” said Crown counsel Frank Dubenski, outside Kelowna courthouse, Monday where the second degree murder trial is underway. “(Harry) Grossmith has lost his wife and as you can see, he’s probably going to lose his son.”

While Conor Grossmith has admitted he killed his mother, the question before the courts is whether he committed the crime because he was in a state of psychosis related to his previously diagnosed bipolar disorder, or if he was just drunkenly lashing out.

Should his mental illness be considered the cause for his actions, and Grossmith is deemed to have been legally insane at the time of the attack, he would be sentenced to spend time in a forensic psychiatric hospital.

The duration of that stay would be up to a third-party panel on the BC Review Board, the organization that deals with people found unfit for trial.

If Supreme Court Justice Alison Beames decides self-induced intoxication was the motivator for the crime, then Grossmith, whose blood alcohol level was estimated to be four to five times the legal limit at the time of the attack,

would stay in B.C.’s prison system.

“Harry would acknowledge that his son Conor loved his mother,” Grossmith’s lawyer Joe Gordon said Monday.

“If Kathleen were here today, she would probably want to see (him found not criminally responsible due to mental disorder).

“The fact is he failed to appreciate that what he did was wrong in the legal sense. That’s what the psychiatrist says, so… that’s what we’re hoping the disposition will be.”

Reaching that point is scheduled to take five days of court time, and will rely heavily on psychiatric assessments.

The first of three psychiatric experts to take the witness stand was forensic psychiatrist, Dr. Shabehram Lohrasbe, who said he believed Grossmith was suffering from bipolar related psychosis on the day he killed his mother.

Lohrasbe reached that conclusion through two interviews with Grossmith, held Dec. 7 and Dec. 8, 2012.

In both of those threehour sessions, which took place three months after the crime, he found Grossmith to be in the throes of a psychotic episode, despite being medicated and clean of drugs and alcohol.

“I was quite surprised by how psychotic he was,” said Lohrasbe. “He had a loss of contact with objective reality.”

In some cases that means having abnormal perceptions, or hallucinations. In others

that can be delusions contrary to logic or it could manifest itself through the inability to express thoughts in a logical pattern.

In Grossmith’s case, it seemed that there were a variety of signals that he had lost his grasp on reality.

“I’d ask a question and he’d start answering, then he’d break off and say, ‘What did you ask,’” recalled Lohrasbe.

“At times he was quite calm and coherent and other times…he was abruptly emotional.”

Those emotional outbursts covered ground between extreme anger and sadness.

Grossmith also told the doctor he had unique powers to control others, indicating to Lohrasbe that he was able to manipulate the prison system by slowing the thoughts of everyone around him, and enforcing his will on others.

While Lohrasbe could immediately discern that Grossmith has bipolar

disorder I—the stage of the mental disorder that is characterized by more severe highs and lows—and that he was psychotic on the days he met him, the challenge in his diagnosis was determining whether Grossmith was suffering from a psychotic break on the day of the murder.

For that, he had to patch together his observations with comments from Grossmith’s father and old medical records.

“We have a gap of knowledge of what was going on in his head when he attacked his mother,” he said, noting later that Grossmith had mentioned a passing annoyance with something his mother did, although his reaction was wildly out of line with the irritation.

What was more telling was Grossmith’s history.

Since 2009, he had experienced psychotic breaks every September.

For the 2009 breakdown in Alberta, which was his first, Grossmith had menaced his grandfather, taken a car, thrown a CD case at his mother, and physically assaulted his lawyer, Joe Gordon.

Over the course of that lapse in sanity, he told his then-doctor that he had “heard the voice of the devil.”

In the years that followed, there are few notable violent outbursts, but Grossmith had been checked into a hospital in September of 2011 after “seeing faces” and feeling a loss of control.

As another year passed the psychosis seemed poised to make a return.

The court heard Tuesday that Harry Grossmith had seen his son “cycling up” and made a call to a mental health professional to say as much.

It’s unclear what help, if any, was extended to the family. What is clear, however, is that things went terribly out of control Sept. 13, 2012.

Grossmith had gone to school, then golfing and even met with his substance abuse counsellor, Giovanni Vidotto in the early part of the day.

For all that he had been sober, but he had told Vidotto that he had been experiencing blackouts

Opinion OUR view

Kelowna’s new council features a business slant The voters, or at least 30 per cent of them, spoke at the ballot box on Saturday night and set Kelowna on a new course in civic politics.

It was out with the past, with Mayor Walter Gray and long-time city councillors Andre Blanleil and Robert Hobson stepping aside, while former mayor and city councillor Sharon Shepherd’s attempt for a third term as mayor fell short.

In with the new was represented by a politically inexperienced new mayor in Colin Basran, embraced by the local business community and aided by a very disciplined election campaign which was effective in staying on message.

The execution of Basran’s campaign strategy is reflected by how one of his biggest negative issues, his lack of experience at city hall beyond one three-year term as a city councillor, remains an unanswered thought still circulating while having little impact on the election results.

Meanwhile, all the incumbents were re-elected with Luke Stack, who topped the polls, along with Mohini Singh, Maxine DeHart and Gail Given. Joining them will be newcomers Ryan Donn, Brad Sieben, Tracy Gray and a return of former councillor Charlie Hodge.

Of the four newcomers, only Hodge brings any political experience to the council table, having previously served on the 2008-11 city council and in Parksville prior to that. Who will emerge as the vocal and policy leaders among that group and who will be the supportive followers will be interesting to watch over the next four years.

The ForKelowna group, the successor to FourChange in the last election, were again influential in rallying support for their chosen candidates, injecting a definitive pro-business slant to city council.

But government isn’t run like a business. There is a fiscal responsibility side to be sure, but overseeing the quality of life for all its residents, the maturity of a growing city with divergent and often conflicting interests within its civic borders are not issues where answers can be found in a budget ledger. With that in mind, we wish the new council well in its journey leading our city forward.

CAPITAL news AWARD-WINNING COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER

Council has time to get up to speed Kelowna voters have delivered the City city a council that’s Confidential a whole lot younger and whole a lot less ALISTAIR experienced than any WATERS seen in recent years.

So for the city’s sake, residents need to hope mayor-elect Colin Basran’s take on his lack of political experience during the campaign—that it’s the quality of the experience he’s had in the last three years, not the quantity—holds true. If not, the next four years could be a long time at city hall.

Between the four incumbents re-elected as councillors—Luke Stack, Gail Given, Maxine DeHart and Mohini Singh, Basran, the three councillor newcomers— Brad Seiben Tracy Gray, and Ryan Donn—and former councillor Charlie Hodge, only Stack has more than one term under his or her belt.

Gone are the days of the continuity provided by the likes of now retired councillors Robert Hobson (26 years) and Andre Blanleil (21 years).

So maybe defeated mayoral candidate Sharon Shepherd, who sat as a councillor for three terms before winning the mayor’s chair in 2005 and holding it for two terms was right on election night when she offered this advice to Basran: “Learn quick.”

Of course every political career has to start somewhere and that’s what we are seeing in Kelowna right now.

At age 37, Basran has shown he’s ambitious, can put together a campaign that connects with voters and may parlay Saturday night’s win into a long political career.

Time will tell.

He and his council do get a bit of a break in that the city budget they will be asked to approve next month, just weeks after being sworn in, has already been set out by the current council. The new council, with the five aforementioned returnees, just has to rubber stamp it.

And like every council before it, the new council will also inherit a number of projects approved, in the works or ready to go that it will get to cut the ribbons on.

But time doesn’t stand still and the new council will also have to do its part in finding and approving new and needed projects for the city.

On election night, and in the days following, the new council’s lack of political experience was sloughed off

by some saying the city has a proven and capable staff and they are the ones that do the day-to-day heavy lifting. That’s true. But they lift what council tells them to lift. Council sets the direction, city staff, in the words of former Star Trek captain Jean-Luc Picard “make it so.” Allowing staff to set the direction is not what the city wants or needs. We elect councils to take on that responsibility. They are accountable to residents and the job they do will get critiqued in four years at the next election.

With a decisive win in the mayor’s race over a proven challenger, and following in the footsteps of a popular predecessor, Basran knows he has a weight of expectation on his shoulders. And he has big shoes to fill.

How he delivers on his desire to see Kelowna “open for opportunity” and not just for business remains to be seen.

In Kelowna, the mayor is one voice of nine at the council table and without showing some leadership skill, he or she cannot get things done single-handedly.

But with at least seven of the nine councillors appearing to be like-minded, pro-business types, herding them in the same direction should not be that hard for Basran. Sure, there will be dissent—there always is—but in the end the new council, like the current one, is likely to fall into line once the talking’s done and the vote has been taken.

Well, maybe with the exception of Hodge, who showed during his past stint on council he’s not afraid to speak out even after all has been said and done.

But unless he can change a lot of minds at the council table, he could find himself a voice in the (council) wilderness on some issues.

Like the wine this region is famous for, the new council will take time to mature. With four years instead of three in its mandate, it means council doesn’t have to hit the ground running.

In fact, the newcomers to council expressed no criticism of the current council in their respective campaigns. So business as usual should be expected.

Given that voters returned all the incumbents who were running for another term, it would appear the electorate—or at least the small portion of it that bothered to vote—is just fine with that too.

SAVING WATER

CONTINUE TO REMEMBER

Eliminate hot water tanks to save water

Everyday is Remembrance Day for those who lived through war

To the editor: Re: Limit Construction, Save Water (Nov. 14 Capital News). What a dumb answer to a subject of water use in Kelowna.

There is a very simple answer to saving water in our city. Our building codes skirt this problem simply because of the cost to the builders, who take short cuts and use material that in a lot of cases is of marginal quality.

Two answers to water waste: 1. Use insulation on all water lines in the building of new or renovated homes.

2. There is a product on the market that eliminates hot water tanks. It is a system presently used in other countries that produces hot water instantly and is also available in this market. It is not expensive when you consider a hot water tank has an average life span of eight to 10 years with considerable cost over the long-term to operate. The instant system is efficient and you don’t have to run water for two or three minutes to get warm water. Multiply that by the amount of homes and there is unbelievable savings of water and cost with the instant system.

Maybe it’s time attention was given to an impending bigger problem down the road with a water shortage. I realize of course the water tank manufacturers would not be happy, but we should get on with the technology available to us.

Our local government should take a serious look at the way FortisBC gave homeowners rebates for energy saving materials used in new homes and home renovations.

All it would take is a change in building code and several years from now water use will certainly be in the right direction.

Think about the savings on TV ads, newspaper ads and the savings on gas and salary of the big bad bylaw officer out touring the neighbourhoods, looking for law breakers using water they pay dearly for on their own property.

Hopefully mayor and council will see threats of a fine on water use to homeowners does not work. This is orchard country—there is a better way to control water use.

To the editor: I always see my neighbour Jackie across the street when I’m strolling with my daughter or watching my son run his RC car. He’s usually mowing the lawn, pulling weeds or raking leaves. Mostly, it takes him the whole afternoon because he moves at the speed of a glacier…well, a retreating glacier may be more correct given the climate change crisis.

And every time I walk over to say, “Hi Jackie, how’s everything?”, he replies: “Still alive—not bad for 95 years old huh?” To which I always respond, “You’re looking good Jackie—really good. And your yard is beautiful!”

Jackie starts by talking about the trees that he planted 40 years ago, and goes into detail about their variety and why he chose them.

He tells me about his lifelong career with the school district as a landscape foreman.

“Well, that was after I came home from the war,” he reminds me. You see, Jackie is one of those few remaining living soldiers that landed on the beaches of Normandy on that fateful morning of June 6, 1944. D-Day. Jackie spends more time talking about his yard, his son and his trees than he does about the war. It wasn’t great for him. The memories surge and swell in his mind like the crushing waves of a cold English sea.

He struggles to remember the details; or chooses not to. He drove a munitions truck, so he wasn’t the first to rush into the barrage

of German gun fire. But offloading a heavy military truck onto the blood soaked sands, and trying to navigate the tires around the beached corpses of men who raised glasses the night before can leave a man escaping. I suppose we choose what to remember and what to leave buried. They say it’s a coping mechanism so that we can move on, and lead fruitful lives.

Remembrance Day is over now as I write these few words. But I think that I write this in honour of Jackie. When the world puts their poppies back into their top drawers, closet shelves, glove boxes or recycling bins, we tend to forget. And when we see an oldtimer like Jackie, pushing his mower, one wobbly step at a time, we need only to know that he continues to live his Remembrance Day; and does so each day of his life.

And as Jackie nears the end of his life’s journey, his only valuable message is one of peace, harmony and love. He says that God gave us such a beautiful world in which to share; and that we should embrace each other, and not hurt one another. His final message is always the same as we say goodbye, and he returns to his yard.

And each morning, when I draw open the curtains, I see his majestic trees and manicured lawn, and I’m reminded of his words, my great fortune and the value of remembrance.

DISTRACTED DRIVING

Cells should be confiscated To the editor: Lauren Kramer’s article Safe Driving Means Stowing Your Cell (Nov. 7,Capital News), the headline should have read: “Safe Driving Means Confiscating Your Cell.”

The law should be revised so that anyone caught using a cell phone while driving should have their cell phone confiscated.

Distracted driving causes more deaths that drunk driving.

When an individual is caught drinking and driving they are fined and the alcohol confiscated. It would be ridiculous just to

issue a ticket and let the driver continue on their way with the alcohol at their side.

When a person is caught driving while distracted, they are issued a ticket and are able to continue on their way with their cell phone.

To say the least it is inconsistent and illogical to allow this to happen. The law should be altered, cell phones should be immediately confiscated and a fine imposed.

Let’s get tough on distracted driving.

after drinking alcohol.

The relationship his drinking had with his prescribed anti-psychotic and anti-anxiety medications of seroquel and quetiapine was not sussed out in the court, although Lohrasbe said that there had been no previous links between Grossmith’s continual drunkenness and violence.

That day he started imbibing sometime after 3:30 p.m, when he arrived home.

His father, Harry Grossmith, had picked up a box and a 1.5 litre bottle of wine, which amounted to 5.5 litres of wine, from the liquor store at some point in the day.

In an agreed statement of fact, the court learned that Kathleen Gilchrist arrived home at around 4:30 p.m., and she and her husband had started to have wine together while the dinner was prepared.

All three sat down to eat dinner together and later played

some cards. Wine was consumed throughout the night, and by the time Gilchrist went to sleep, all 5.5 litres were gone.

It’s believed that Grossmith had most of the bottle to himself, as it was his habit to drink a lot, very quickly.

Some time after Gilchrist had gone to sleep in her upstairs bedroom, Harry Grossmith was downstairs preparing a snack. He saw his son go into the garage, to what he believed was fetch a soda, and then go back upstairs.

“Harry Grossmith then heard what sounded like two kicking sounds coming from the upstairs area of the residence. He thought his son might have become upset and was hitting the wall, as his son had done this in the past,” reads the agreed statement of fact.

Harry yelled to stop the kicking, and then went upstairs to see what was happening.

He immediately realized something worse had happened as Conor was holding a hammer and there was physical evidence that his

wife had been seriously injured.

“Harry Grossmith looked into his son’s eyes and did not recognize the person looking back at him.

The father would later describe his son as having a fierce or almost demonic look on his face as if it was someone who was not his son— someone he did not know,” reads the statement.

“It was the same look he recognized when he went to pick his son up following an incident in Calgary in 2009.”

The two men struggled, and Grossmith ran to a room with a telephone and called 911. Police arrived at 9:12 p.m., and Grossmith was arrested. Shortly thereafter, the paramedics arrived to help Gilchrist.

For Lohrasbe the demonic look his father described combined with the medical history and current struggle was quite telling.

“I have a lot of confidence that psychosis was the dominant (motivator),” he said. @kelownanewsKat

Mark your calendars, Wet Ape Productions announced last week that Monster Energy Center of Gravity will return to Kelowna’s shores next year, despite previous concerns it would be axed.

The eighth year of the sports and music festival which will run in City Park July 24 to 26, will see a number of changes, predominantly the addition of a new partnership with

Canadian festival producers Union Events.

With offices in Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton and Toronto, Union Events have an extensive background in concert and festival productions.

While the Center of Gravity show will go on, Wet Ape’s Keloha Music & Arts Festival will not be returning in 2015 on its own weekend.

Components of the indie/alternative rock

and arts festival will be integrated into MECOG providing audiences with what organizers call a festival experience that brings the top artists from all genres to Kelowna.

Wet Ape and Union Events expect to draw in broader audiences and continue to expand on the festival’s popularity.

Festival director, Scott Emslie, is excited about the upcoming year.

“We’ve put some key pieces in place that will

be the foundation for one of the greatest festival experiences in Western Canada. Partnering up with a live entertainment powerhouse like Union Events is very exciting for us and there is a very bright future for the festival.”

Ticketing and lineup info will be released in early 2015.

BC CANCER FOUNDATION

Fundraiser aids treatment research Last week $100,000 was raised in Kelowna to support clinical trials research at the BC Cancer Agency Sindi Ahluwalia Hawkins Centre for the Southern Interior.

The fourth annual Discovery Luncheon fundraiaser held last week celebrated the importance of research happening each year in Kelowna.

The generosity of Tom Budd, with the Thomas Alan Budd Foundation, in donating $20,000 was matched by guests at the sold-out event ensuring local patients will benefit from advancements in cancer research and care from progress made through clinical trials taking place at the cancer centre.

“The support received from donors from across the Southern Interior ensures that clinical research will continue to improve the standard of care for patients here and across the province,” said Douglas Nelson, president and chief executive officer of the BC Cancer Foundation.

A strong clinical trials program is fundamental

to progress in cancer research and care.

Clinical trials provide new hope for patients by translating results from the lab or clinic into more effective treatment options.

“Today’s established therapies are a result of successful clinical trials of the recent past,” said Dr. Juanita Crook, radiation oncologist at the BC Cancer Agency Sindi Ahluwalia Hawkins Centre for the Southern Interior.

“When multiple standard options of treatment are available and suitable for an individual, clinical trials research allows us to find out if one would offer an advantage in tolerance or efficacy.”

Dr. Randall Fairey, cancer survivor and retired B.C. Cancer Agency clinician, spoke at the event. He was diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer in June 2013.

His diagnosis came at a time when a clinical trial for high dose rate brachytherapy, an alternate form of radiotherapy with potentially fewer side

effects, was being offered at the B.C. Cancer Agency.

I have always believed that the BC Cancer Foundation’s support for the BC Cancer Agency Research Centre is unparalleled,” said Dr. Fairey. ”The reality is cancer can happen to anyone.

A lifetime of oncology practice, teaching and research did not make me immune to cancer.”

Clinical trials

are integral tools for improving our understanding of cancer and testing the effectiveness and safety of new drugs in order to raise the standard of cancer care.

Even for cancers with many available treatment options, researchers and clinicians continue to strive for improvement: for therapies that will be more effective, applicable to a larger number of patients, or have fewer

side effects.

Over the last three years, the Discovery Luncheon has raised more than $190,000 for rapid enhancements in cancer research and care, including the breast brachytherapy, HDR brachytherapy for prostate cancer and PREDICT research projects.

Funds raised this year ensure local patients benefit from continued treatment advancements.

New basking log for Hardy Pond turtles Working together, the Gorman Brothers Lumber staff and volunteers from the Central Okanagan Naturalist’s Club will be placing a new western painted turtle basking log on Hardy Pond, which is located just south of the Gorman Brothers lumber mill in West Kelowna.

The previous logs had become waterlogged and sank, so a new cedar log has been generously supplied and will be placed by Gorman Brothers Lumber.

Western painted turtles need to bask in the sun to keep warm because they are cold-blooded animals.

Basking also subjects them to the sun’s ultra-violet rays, which has the beneficial effect of hardening their upper shell (carapace). Historically, the turtle population in Hardy Pond has been very healthy, but the introduction of goldfish and the growth of Eurasian milfoil in recent years may have degraded their habitat so their current status in the pond is uncertain.

Providing a log to bask on is an important first step to ensure that the turtles continue to thrive beside Highway 97. Many motorists passing by look for the turtles on the log as a reassuring sign that this facet of nature is still doing well.

High blood pressure, hypertension Mental health project receives $200,000 study seeks participants Almost 50 per cent of women and 30 per cent of men between the ages of 65 and 75 suffer from high blood pressure or hypertension.

It is frequently referred to as the “silent killer” because there are often no warning signs or symptoms, and many people don’t even realize they have it until it has already started to wreak havoc in their bodies.

High blood pressure can permanently damage your heart, brain, eyes and kidneys, leading to heart attack and heart failure, stroke, kidney failure, vision loss and have other health consequences.

With so many people affected by high blood pressure coupled with how harmful it can be to many important systems in our body, there is a great need for ongoing clinical research in this area.

Locally, hypertension research is currently being conducted by The Medical Arts Health Research Group, in

cooperation with Dr. Robert Williams, to help advance the treatment and understanding of high blood pressure.

If you have been diagnosed with hypertension, or know someone who has, and you are 18 years or older, you may qualify.

You do not have to be a patient of Dr. Williams in order to participate.

To find out if you can participate, please contact The Medical Arts Health Research Group at 1-888-490-4320.

Since 2002, Medical Arts Health Research Group has committed to bringing the most advanced medical opportunities to the people of British Columbia by conducting the highest standards of quality clinical research for our sponsors within the most efficient time frames.

For more information about Medical Arts Health Research Group, check out the website healthresearch.ca or call 1-888-490-4320.

Kelowna families dealing with mental health and/or substance use issues will receive increased support, thanks to $200,000 in Community Action Initiative grants from the provincial government.

The funding will support the Caring for the Caregivers (CFTC) program coordinated by the Canadian Mental Health Association (Kelowna and district),which offers peer groups, service referrals, case co-ordination,

and access to professional therapy and primary care services.

This program supports parents and caregivers of children, youth and dependent adults in the Kelowna area that are experiencing mental illness and/or substance use problems.

“Mental illness doesn’t just affect one person– it affects their family and friends as well,” said WestsideKelowna MLA Premier Christy Clark.

“This CMHA program offers families the support and care they need.”

“One in five British Columbians struggles to cope with a mental health diagnosis or substance abuse challenge,” added Kelowna-Lake Country MLA Norm Letnick.

“It’s great to know the CMHA is always there to help, not only in Kelowna but across British Columbia.”

FREE SEMINAR

Falling leaves free gift to the garden

“Questions For God” If you had His undivided attention for one hour,

The killing frost the night of Nov. 10 ended our lovely, long autumn.

It’s definitely time to finish outdoor tasks as snow could start to fall any day now.

Good soil and mulch are two cornerstones of xeriscape/waterwise gardening. Fall is the perfect time to load up on free materials to make compost for improving soil next year or to mulch gardens and turf.

There’s a bounty of fallen leaves—and so many uses for them.

Here are some suggestions: Do the final lawn mowing and leave shredded leaf/grass clippings on the lawn to rot and rebuild the soil.

Leave small leaves where they fall in garden beds to form a natural mulch.

Rake mounds of leaves around tender plants to provide some winter protection.

Pile leaves thickly over root vegetables and leeks to keep the ground from freezing so they can be dug as needed through winter.

You may need to secure the leaves by placing wire over or around them.

The ‘protection’ leaves can be layered into the compost bin in spring.

Make leaf mould by spraying

What Would You Ask God? Presenter, Dr. Ern Brake: Helping people find faith, hope and understanding in a messed up world – this has been the passion of Ern Brake for over 30 years, most of which were spent as a pastor in British Columbia and the east coast. Since his conversion from atheism at the age of 20 Ern has shown, through the use of multimedia, that people can reach their potential through experiencing God. His doctoral studies at Andrews University in Michigan focused on the tension between faith and reason in a postmodern world. Ern grew up in France, Germany, and Atlantic Canada, and lives in Abbotsford, BC where he is the Assistant to the President for Strategic Planning for the British Columbia Conference of Seventh-day Adventists.

Gardening With Nature GWEN STEELE water into yard waste bags of leaves. Fasten them shut and leave overwinter (preferably in a sunny place). Next spring you’ll have chunky, nutrient-rich, leaf mould to dig into garden soil or use as mulch.

Earthworms may even grow in the sealed bags.

This form of soil amendment and mulch is very effective in helping to hold nutrients and moisture, especially in fast-draining, sandy soil.

It’s important to use coloured or black bags. Leaves don’t seem to decompose in clear plastic.

An alternative is to make a big pile of leaves—moistening layers as you make the pile. Then cover with a coloured tarp and seal around the edges with wood or rocks to keep the pile moist over winter.

For larger leaves and some garden debris, composting can be speeded up and volume drastically reduced by shredding with an electric mower.

Alternating layers of leaves and

smashed Halloween pumpkins will make great compost for next spring.

Rake up and send all walnut leaves to the landfill compost. They contain a compound that inhibits growth of some plants.

Recently on my neighbourhood walk, I was excited to spot many bags full of small maple and birch leaves. They are my favourites as they decompose quickly without being shredded.

I’ll be filling up my trusty little car and hauling them home to make more compost.

I save some bags of small leaves to layer in, each time kitchen scraps get added to my black composter.

Without the leaves (dry material) being added there is just a slimy mess next spring, not good compost/soil.

Another way to use kitchen green waste is to dig a trench in an empty vegetable garden, then dump the fruit and vegetable scraps into the trench and cover with soil.

CENTRAL OKANAGAN

Lights sparkle but be aware Everyone loves decorating for the holidays, but there are a number of safety tips to keep in mind when lighting up your home. Test your knowledge with the following statements and learn to separate fact from fiction when buying and installing lights: • Fact or Fiction: All holiday lights can be used indoors and outdoors.

Fiction: Lights are specifically rated for either indoor or outdoor use. Look for this information on the package, and check for a recognized certification mark before you buy. The same is true for extension cords.

• Fact or Fiction: Outdoor lights can be plugged into any type of outlet.

Fiction: If you’re installing lights outside, be sure your outlets are equipped with ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCI). GFCIs protect you from an electric shock wherever you use electrical products in damp and wet conditions.

• Fact or Fiction: You should always look up and look out when stringing lights outside.

Fact: Before you start, take a walk around your property and be aware of any overhead powerlines.

Keep your ladder a safe distance away—at least three metres. You could be electrocuted even if you don’t touch the wire. Use the proper clips to secure lights and decorations, since nails and staples can damage the cords.

Light up safely this holiday season to avoid shocking surprises, both indoors or outdoors. Additional

Christmas lights make the whole season sparkle. guidance and information is available online at esasafe. com.

••• The warm glow of holiday lights evokes cherished memories, but how many of us know the history behind how this tradition came to be such a central part of the festive season?

To illuminate your conversations this year, here are some little-known facts about holiday lights: 1. The practice of using electric lights on Christmas trees started in 1895 in the United States, as an alternative to candles. Before that, people would balance candles on tree branches, a

tradition that led to many home fires.

2. Like any new technology, holiday lights were so expensive when first introduced that few people could afford them. According to American historians Bill and George Nelson, in the early 1900s families rented their lights rather than buying them outright.

3. The Nelson brothers’ research reveals that outdoor holiday lights were first introduced in 1927, but they were small, dangerous and not properly designed for the elements. Today, a rigorous certification process ensures such products meet safety standards.

CONTRIBUTED

4. Launched in 1985 in the national capital region as a way to liven up the darkest of winter days, Christmas Lights across Canada is now a popular event in numerous cities and towns from coast to coast. Held this year from December 3 to January 7, more than 300,000 dazzling lights will glow throughout downtown Ottawa.

5. Despite what some in your neighbourhood might do, holiday lights aren’t meant for year-round use.

The long, cold winter can cause cords to crack and lead to a shock or fire.

Remember to store them away after the holidays.

OF PRIME INTEREST

What is a bridge loan, and when do you use it?

Bridge loans are short-term loans that bridge the gap between two different closing dates.

They are most commonly used you sell your home and buy another home with a closing date of the purchase prior to the sale of your existing home. They are also become a popular way to take possession of that new home while it’s empty for two or three weeks to allow for renovations.

You must have a firm sale on your current home to qualify for a bridge loan.

In the past, most homebuyers would have their selling and buying dates match. It can be stressful as you have to pack your moving truck and unpack it all in less than a day.

Somehow everyone manages to get it done, but you think back on is as one of the most stressful days in your life.

Buyers today have options and more are taking a relaxed approach as we see bridge loans gaining in popularity. The process allows for a more relaxed move over a three to five day period, or in the case of a renovation, perhaps as much as two or three weeks.

As an example, we’ll use a couple that sold their home for $400,000 with an existing mortgage of 200,000. The sale of the home is closing Dec. 5 and they have purchased another house for $500,000 with a new mortgage of 300,000 and a closing date of Dec.1.

Here’s how the bridge loan works: The bridge loan will be for $200,000 which is the down payment/equity from existing home. The lender will disburse the new mortgage of $300,000 and the bridge financing amount of $200,000 (which is your equity amount in the property you have not yet sold) on Dec. 1, so you have the whole amount to complete your purchase.

At that time you will be responsible for the

two mortgages since you have not yet sold your home.

On Dec. 5 you will receive the funds from the sale of your home and they will go directly to the lender through your notary/ lawyer to pay out your existing mortgage and the bridge loan.

A bridge loan will only be offered by the mortgage provider for your new home. You will, as stated above, be required to confirm the unconditional sale of your existing home.

Some lenders will charge a fee (typically $350) plus the interest cost but there are lenders who waive the fee and charge the interest cost only.

Typical rate for bridge financing is prime plus five per cent which sounds high but based on the above the interest cost for a bridge loan of $200,000 for five days is under $220.

The maximum amount of the bridge loan will be the amount of your down payment that is coming from the sale of your home.

It can’t be greater than the remaining equity in your home that you are selling.

The lender will also require your lawyer to provide an undertaking to register a mortgage if the sale of your existing home collapses (not a common occurrence but it can happen).

Depending on your circumstance, a bridge loan is an available option that can most certainly be utilized at a minimum cost.

If you require more info on how bridge loans work or need help with a situation please feel free to contact us.

Telling your story most accurately —the Capital News

Last week a very interesting gathering was held at the Bohemian Bagel Cafe called Behind the Ballot.

Four speakers addressed issues facing Kelowna for the attendees to consider prior to going to the polls last Saturday.

As one of the speakers, I discussed the innovative thinking that is needed when facing the doubling of our over 65 population by the year 2030.

What I found incredibly interesting over the course of the entire forum, was the common theme that ran through each speaker’s words.

Seniors’ Concerns MARJORIE HORNE all of its citizens, including those that are most vulnerable—our frailer elders, the homeless and those suffering from mental illness.

What I loved about this gathering was the inspiring energy that was generated through the passion of the speakers on their individual subjects and the willingness of the audience to engage in the process of joining together with creative intention.

The Okanagan Institute is a dynamic group that organized the event and

Learn more about them online at okanaganinstitute.com.

When it comes to addressing aging in a changing world, creativity must be engaged with by society.

As was the theme of each speaker’s eloquent message, true collaboration and a return to building community, not through words but through cooperative action together, is what will truly make a difference for the future.

If we approach the marginalized sectors of our population with caring, innovative solutions to meet

their innate needs of acceptance and belonging, will it improve us as a society?

I really believe it will.

Not by trying to isolate the problem and separate it away from us, but by really understanding that each person has an intrinsic right to be treated with respect and to know that individually and as a whole, we are affected by the actions that we choose to take.

Technology and business are important to building a strong community, but compassion and caring are the heart of what will make us great.

It is time for change and I saw the enthusiasm of it in the passionate connection between the intergenerational mix of people, young and old who attended this community forum.

It was uplifting. We need to start thinking outside the box and gatherings such as these bring people with a clear and positive desire to build what is truly meant

by community to fruition.

We can’t just complain about what’s wrong, we have to each individually be a part of the solution.

In human communities, intent, belief, resources and the sharing of common values creates the cohesiveness that makes getting the job done so much easier.

Caring for our burgeoning aging population requires a paradigm shift in our thinking. The Okanagan Institute is forming a place where people can join together to be creative called the Proof Creative and Learning Centre. Change happens one step at a time, and when people with common values unite, magic happens.

Preventing falls for seniors key to future quality of life More than one-third of seniors will fall this year. Many will fall more than once; some will die.

Most don’t discuss their falls with their health care providers until they are badly injured. Most seniors fall at home and most fall in the bathroom.

Many children of aging parents find that their parents mentioned that they are having trouble getting out of the tub or that they recently slipped.

Maybe they have stopped using the bathtub and only shower now because they are afraid to fall or get stuck.

This is a common problem and one that many people wish they had taken action sooner. The older you get, the worse a fall can be on your body.

According to the Centers for Disease Control, falls are the leading cause of accidental death among seniors and a frequent cause of nursing home admissions.

When an older person falls, they are prone to broken and fractured hips along with other bones which become much more brittle with age.

Older people often have osteoporosis and other bone-degenerating conditions which affect the ability of the body to heal properly. A bad fall can have devastating health consequences.

The area where the majority of the falls occur is in the bathroom, especially while entering or exiting a tub. If it’s possible, replacing the bathtub with an accessible bathtub for the elderly would be the best solution to eliminate falls.

There are many accessible bathtubs available from walk-in to safer and more accessible slide-in models.

Higher toilets with grab bars, and night lights help. There are even glow-inthe-dark grab bars that perform doubleduty. Adding grab bars to the shower/ tub area and non-slip coatings to floors and shower floor in the bathroom are also recommended, says Matthew Longman, a certified aging in place specialist. Government funding through the BC Housing Home Adaptions for Independence Program is available to make homes safer and more accessible to those that qualify.

Sports HIGH SCHOOL

Owls sweep up four Okanagan Valley titles whenderson@kelownacapnews.com

Clearly, the sport of volleyball is in good hands at Kelowna Secondary School.

Led by the Owls’ senior boys and girls teams, KSS captured all four Okanagan Valley championships in which the school competed in last weekend.

OWLS SENIOR BOYS

In Kelowna, the host Owls rolled to their fifth consecutive valley boys’ AAA title with successive sweeps of the Rutland Voodoos and Mt. Boucherie Bears.

The Owls, ranked No. 1 in B.C., were challenged by the Bears in the final match, but prevailed 2521, 25-21 and 25-20.

“The (Bears) pushed us, so it was a great win for the guys,” said Owls’ coach Mike Sodaro. “It was important for us to play well at valleys to be ready for provincials and we were able to do that.”

Devon Cote, Eli Risso

second, the Bears’ senior girls have qualified for the B.C. championships for the first time in 14 years.

Boucherie head coach Deb Trewhitt cited both Sydney Fender and Kayla Sullivan for their strong play over the weekend at valleys.

The provincial 4A girls championship is set for Nov. 26 to 29 in Cranbrook.

and Sam Taylor Parks of KSS were named to the tournament’s allstar team, along with Boucherie’s Brodie Kern and Riley Berthaudin.

Both the Owls and Bears will represent the Okanagan at the B.C. School Sports provincial championships Nov. 26 to 29 at the Langley Events Centre.

The Owls will be No. 1, while Boucherie are ranked third.

KSS has won the silver medal at provincials in each of the last two years.

OWLS SENIOR GIRLS

Make it nine consecutive Okanagan Valley titles and counting for the KSS senior girls’ squad.

The Owls wrapped up the 2014 championship Saturday in Penticton with a 3-0 victory over the Mt. Boucherie Bears.

According to their head coach, the Owls— ranked third in B.C. at the 4A level—are in championship form as they prepare for

“It’s that time of year where we’re at sort of testing where we’re at, to see who’s ready to play at provincials,” said Owls

coach Tony Sodaro. “We got to play every single girl and we dominated. It was good to see.

“Now we need to tune it up for the next level where the games will get

tougher.”

Sodaro’s Owls were led by all-stars Brooklyn Norman, Kennedy Snape, Quinci Birker, Alexa Eger and Denica Widmer.

Meanwhile, by placing

VOLLEYBALL THRIVING AT KSS

In addition to the senior boys and girls teams winning valleys, the KSS junior boys and girls also struck gold in the Okanagan finals.

Coached by Troy White, the Owls boys defeated Vernon’s Clarence Fulton on Saturday in Kamloops.

In the girls’ championship in Penticton, the Owls downed Sa Hali from Kamloops to win the valley crown. The KSS junior girls are coached by Rochelle Youngberg.

Senior girls coach Tony Sodaro said much of the

school’s success on the court stems from the feeder system KSS has in place.

“Mike (Sodaro) and I are lucky in that we have coaches at the middle school level who are doing a great job of feeding our programs here,” said Sodaro.

“We have great people volunteering and have built up an extensive program at all levels.”

Sodaro said a winning tradition and volleyball culture at KSS hasn’t hurt the cause either.

“We love to work hard, but we keep fun in our play, too,” he added.

“That’s all part of the culture of volleyball at KSS. “Young players see how big the program is at KSS and many of them want to be part of it.”

The provincial junior boys championship will be played this weekend at Mt. Boucherie, Constable Neil Bruce and Glenrosa Middle School. @capnewsports.ca

Mustangs win Okanagan Valley A girls volleyball championship The No. 1-ranked Immaculata Mustangs lived up to their billing by claiming the Okanagan Valley A girls high school volleyball championship over the weekend in Clearwater.

After going 3-0 in pool play, the Mustangs defeated Clearwater 2-0 in the semifinals.

In the valley final on Saturday, Immaculata dispatched Kelowna’s Abderdeen Hall 3-0 in the best-offive.

“Again Gemma Davies, Megan Hart, and Natalie Livingston had outstanding matches,” said Mustangs coach Brian Drosdovech.

The Mustangs and Aberdeen Hall advance to represent the valley at the B.C. A girls championship in Kelowna Nov. 27 to 29.

Immaculata and Kelowna Christian will co-host the event.

OKM BOYS

The Okanagan Mission Huskies earned a spot at the B.C. AA boys championship next week thanks to a third-place finish at the valley finals last weekend.

In an exciting 3rd/4th place match for the final berth to provincials, OKM defeated Vernon’s W.L. Seaton 15-13

in the fifth and deciding set.

Team captain Tanner Thiessen and Dakoda Huber led the way for Huskies during the tournament in kills and blocks.

It’s the fifth straight year that OKM has qualified for provincials, held this year at the Langley Events Centre.

Guard in Kelowna for special ceremony Friday Warren Henderson Like many of his teammates from a decade ago, it remains the defining moment of Kelly Guard’s hockey career.

Warriors host Vees Friday Yet another key Interior Division matchup takes to the ice Friday night at Royal LePage Place.

At 7 p.m., the West Kelowna Warriors battle the rival Vernon Vipers in BCHL action.

Vernon has won two of three meetings between the teams this season.

The Warriors are currently in second spot in the Interior, while the Vipers are fourth.

The Warriors played on Tuesday night at home to Langley, however a score wasn’t available at press time.

West Kelowna was coming off a split of overtime games over the weekend, losing 4-3 to Merritt on Friday, then rebounding for a 3-2 victory on Saturday against the Victoria Grizzlies.

In the win, captain Andrew Johnson scored the decisive goal at 3:03 of the first extra period, while Jordan Masters added a goal and an assist.

Former goaltender Kelly Guard will be at the Kelowna Rockets’ game on Friday to celebrate the 2004 Memorial Cup champion’s induction into the Central Okanagan Sports Hall of Fame.

(Memorial Cup) it just puts you in a really good mood,” said Guard, 31, who is currently an assistant coach with the Prince Albert Raiders. “I still get chills when I talk about it with players or coaches who were there back then. It was a special time.”

Guard will be in Kelowna this Friday night to help celebrate the 2004 Rockets’ induction into the Central Okanagan Sports Hall of Fame Museum.

Guard and former Rockets teammates Simon Ferguson and Chris Ray will be at Prospera Place for a special ceremony prior to Kelowna’s game

against the Portland Winterhawks.

“It’s awesome,” Guard said of the team’s induction. “(Hall of Fame) is something you don’t think about over the years, but when you hear the team is going in, you get excited about it. I’m glad it worked out and

that I can be at the game to celebrate it.”

The 2014 Central Okanagan Sports Hall of Fame induction ceremony will be held Thursday morning at the Coast Capri Hotel in Kelowna.

post-season.

The Rams are the threetime defending provincial champs.

whenderson@kelownacapnews.com

After making history with their first ever playoff win on Saturday afternoon, the Kelowna Owls face another challenge this weekend— the Mt. Douglas Rams.

KSS will travel to Victoria to take on No. 2-ranked Mt. Douglas Friday afternoon in the quarterfinal round of the B.C. high school football

regular season, outscoring their opponents 243-51.

“They throw the ball well, they run the ball well, and they’re solid on defense,” Blanchard said of Mt. Douglas. “We still have a young team, so this is a big game for our program. It would be nice to win, but really the the kids are going to really benefit from this. We’ve got some game breakers, so you never know.”

The Owls secured a

spot in the quarters with the school’s first ever playoff victory Saturday at CNC. KSS scored early and often en route to a convincing 46-12 drubbing of the Notre Dame Jugglers.

“It was a big step for our kids,” Blanchard said.

“To go out there and not be intimidated by a team from Vancouver was great to see.”

Seth Campell scored three touchdowns and

threw a TD pass, while Parker Simpson scored to majors and fired a pair of touchdowns passes—one each to Campbell and Adam DiBiase.

Manny Chamberlain led the defence with seven tackles, three sacks and a fumble recovery.

Kick off Friday in Victoria is 2:30 p.m.

Bears watched their AAA senior varsity season come to an end on Friday night in New Westminster in a 40-7 loss to the Hyacks.

The Bears, who went 3-4 during the regular season, knew they’d be in tough against the Hyacks running game.

“We just couldn’t stop their offense,” said Bears assistant coach Rick Nelson. “It was one of those in-between years

for our program where we just didn’t have the horses. But the boys played hard.”

While the senior Bears are finished, the junior varsity squad has advanced to the quarterfinals.

Mt. Boucherie will be at New Westminster on Thursday for the second round of the playoffs.

GREYSTOKE PHOTOGRAPHY

A chilly Okanagan weekend wasn’t enough to cool down the UBCO Heat, as Steve Manuel’s squad pushed its winning streak to four in Canada West women’s volleyball.

The Heat took both ends of a weekend doubleheader from the young Saskatchewan Huskies at the Kelowna campus gym.

Depite not being at their best on Friday, the Heat pounded out a four set win (25-22, 25-17, 23-25, 25-14) over the Huskies.

“I would classify that as an ugly win by us,” said coach Steve Manuel. “We didn’t perform very well, but we found a way to get the job done.”

Fourth-year Heat outside hitter Brianna Beamish had a teamhigh 16 kills (.424) while chipping in two solo blocks and four digs en route to player of the game honours.

Ok Rockets road trip nets two wins from T’Birds A pair of scrappy road wins were enough to keep the Okanagan Rockets in the upper echelon of the B.C. Major Midget League standings.

The Rockets (11-41) swept a weekend set in Abbotsford from the Fraser Valley Thunderbirds to remain in third spot in the BCMML, while moving to within one point of the second-place Vancouver Northwest Giants.

The victories also came on the heels of a threegame winless streak.

On Saturday, the Rockets overcame a rash

of penalties to defeat the Thunderbirds 4-2.

Okanagan was forced to kill off 12 penalties, including four 5-on-3 man advantage scenarios.

Brett Witala, Marcus Mitchell, Brandon Whistle and Kaden Black scored for the Rockets, while Jordan Reynolds stopped 27 shots for his seventh win in goal.

On Sunday, the Rockets overcame a one-goal deficit after two periods to edge Fraser Valley 4-3.

Trailing 3-2, Whistle and Levi Johnson scored third-period goals to push the Rockets to their 11th

win.

Brett Witala and Jeffrey Schlegel, with a shorthanded marker, also tallied for Okanagan.

Netminder Cole Demers was outstanding for the Rockets as he turned aside 28 of the 31 shots the T-Birds directed his way.

The Rockets return to action this weekend with a home-and-home set against the Thompson Blazers.

The clubs face off Saturday in Kamloops, then Sunday at 10 a.m. at the Capital News Centre.

Then on Saturday, Kelowna is in Golden to face the Rockets.

On Tuesday night, the

Chiefs were home to the North Okanagan Knights, however a final score wasn’t available at press time.

Kelowna earned a split of two games over the weekend, opening with a 4-2 home ice victory over Kimberley on Friday.

Chris Turner stopped 37 shots in the Chiefs’ net, while Ethan Rusnack

paced the Kelowna attack with two goals, including an empty netter.

On Saturday, the hometown 100 Mile House Wranglers downed the Chiefs 5-3. Braeden Cyra led Kelowna on the scoresheet with a goal and two assists.

The Chiefs next home action is Saturday, Nov. 29 against the Chase Heat.

The UBCO men are still looking for their first W of the season after being swept at home by the University of Saskatchewan Huskies.

On Friday, Heat fell 3-0 (25-20, 25-17, 25-17).

Second-year Heat middle Joshua Harvey was the most efficient scorer on the floor for the match as he recorded a teamhigh ten kills on a .529 rate, adding four digs and one solo block to the stat

sheet.

On Saturday, a tighter match but the same result in a 3-0 (25-22, 25-19, 25-21) Saskatchewan victory.

The Heat allowed eight service aces and tallied eight service receptions, 16 easy points that could have easily swayed the course of otherwise tightknit sets in their favour.

“We’ve got to review our defensive system and continue working on our first contact,” was the simple message from Heat coach Greg Poitras following the match, with regard to what the practice sessions this upcoming week will look like. “Our system play was not very good defensively.”

Third-year outside hitter Alex Swiatlowski led the Heat with nine kills (.368) to go with two service aces, three digs

and one block assist.

UBCO (0-12) will head east this weekend for a

pair off matches against the Regina Cougars.

With temperatures dropping, the Inn From The Cold shelter on Sutherland Avenue in Kelowna opened on the weekend.

Inn from the COLD

Kelowna homeless shelter opens for the winter season As of this week, people living on the street in Kelowna can breathe a sigh of relief as the Inn from the Cold homeless shelter officially opened its doors Saturday for another winter.

Inn from the Cold is a charity organization providing overnight shelter to people living on the streets during Kelowna’s coldest winter months.

“Every winter, Inn from the Cold opens to ensure that no one has to sleep outside,” said Tara Tschritter, IFTC agency coordinator “By providing additional shelter services in Kelowna, we are able to work together with our community partners to ensure no one falls between the cracks and is left out in the cold.”

IFTC is a “minimal barrier” shelter with 35 beds that serve the most vulnerable homeless members of the community.

Men and women, transgendered, couples, pets and individuals with various challenges and are all welcome to a bed at the downtown facility, once a vulnerability assessment is completed and priority sequence is determined.

“With the recent cold temperatures has come an increase in demand for

our Free Store services,” said Val McCullough, IFTC volunteer Free Store manager.

“Many individuals are accessing our Free Store to get blankets and warm clothing. Some have expressed that they are staying outside waiting for our shelter to open.”

As a volunteer-based, charity organization that relies on donations and fundraising efforts to cover operating expenses, IFTC is grateful to everyone who has donated their time, efforts, and monies, said Tschritter “Inn from the Cold is only able to operate because of the support of a huge number of volunteers,” said Mark Dixon, IFTC board president.

“Every year we fill hundreds of volunteer shifts in our shelter and we are so grateful to each and every person who helps us by giving us their time.”

IFTC volunteer application, donation, and intake information is available online at www. innfromthecoldkelowna. org or phone 250-4485153.

The IFTC shelter is located at 1157 Sutherland Avenue in Kelowna. Its doors are open from 7 p.m. to 8 a.m. daily.

In retirement he loved spending time with his family, travelling and golfing.

A Memorial service to celebrate his life will take place at 11:00 on November 20 at Grace Lutheran Church (1162 Hudson Road) on the Westside.

Our family would like to express our sincerest gratitude for the kindness and compassion shown to him by the KGH staff and the nurses at Hospice House during this difficult time.

CLARK, LOIS Lois Clark passed away on November 17, 2014 at the Village at Mill Creek Care Home. She is survived by her daughter Janice (Bill) Redlich of Kelowna, 2 grandsons Devin (Jane) Redlich of Vancouver and Jeremy (Taeko) Redlich of Beppu Japan, and 1 great grandson Toshi of Beppu. Also, she will be remembered by 3 sisters-in-law Evelyn Connor and Edna Clark of Kindersley, SK and Pat Connor of Coleville, SK as well as many nieces and nephews.

She was predeceased by her husband Ken Clark (2001), 3 brothers, Clayton, Wilfred and Jack Connor, her sister Elise Allen and sister-in-law Ruth Connor.

Lois was born to Art and Gertie Connor in the Dodsland Saskatchewan Hospital on June 9, 1915. She celebrated her 99th birthday last June, and even she couldn’t believe she was that old!

She grew up on her parent’s farm near Coleville and helped her parents on the farm until she married Ken Clark in 1940.

They farmed in the Driver, SK area until 1968 when they retired to Kelowna. They were always involved in their communities both in SK and later in Kelowna. They enjoyed music and volunteered many hours providing music with friends and relatives, for country dances, community functions and seniors’ centres. Lois played the piano. She was a member of the UCW in Driver and later in St. Paul’s United Church in Kelowna.

Lois was a great cook, and would always welcome unexpected guests for a meal or coffee, no one ever left their home hungry.

Many thanks to the staff at the Village at Mill Creek for the home they provided for the last 5 years of her life, and for the care they provided especially in the last while as her health declined. Also thanks to her friend Margaret who visited regularly and gave her many hours of enjoyment and to Donna who visited on behalf of St. Paul’s Church. Lois felt honoured to receive Donna’s visits.

A private family celebration of her life will be arranged, followed by a graveside service in Coleville, SK next year where her ashes will be buried next to Ken’s.

Q A

Certified Carpet Cleaning Technician/Oxy-Dry System Developer

Verico Compass Mortgage Group What is the difference in getting a mortgage through a Mortgage Broker vs. through your Bank?

Mortgage Brokers work for YOU, not the Banks.

They simply take a customer’s application and then negotiate on their behalf in order to secure the best possible mortgage in the Industry! A Bank differs in the sense that they are only trying to sell mortgage products that are offered through their particular institution.

Remember Banks primary goal is profit for their shareholders.

So they don’t necessarily offer the best rates out of the gate all the time. Mortgage Brokers have the luxury of having relationships with multiple Institutions, Lenders and Credit Unions. They can survey the various mortgage products and rates offered by all these various Mortgage Lenders and offer the best option to the client. They get the banks competing for your business! Best thing of all, services of Mortgage Brokers are FREE to their clients as the Lenders pay the commission.

So next time you are in search for a new mortgage, remember Mortgage Brokers offer you CHOICE. Why go to your Bank when we can bring the all the Banks to you!

For any real estate or mortgage inquiries, please contact Aaron Marsh anytime!

Q A

Why should I have my leather furniture cleaned? Can’t I just wipe it with a damp cloth?

Did you know that furniture manufacturers recommend that leather furniture be cleaned once or twice a year to keep it looking like new? Most people think that all their furniture needs is a good wipe with a damp cloth every now and again. But that does little to preserve it from drying out and cracking from dehydration.

The Oxy-Dry process for cleaning leather is similar to that of other fabrics, however, we take it a step further. After we’ve cleaned it using soft, gentle and dry ozone-charged foam containing only 8% moisture, we carefully apply a specialized lotion. This lotion is specifically formulated for smooth, finished leather furniture safely strengthening, preserving, moisturizing and nourishing fine leather. It also replaces the natural lubricants lost during normal use. It is completely wax free and keeps leather soft and pliable, resistant to cracking and scuffing as it imparts a soft, rich lustre to the surface. It also provides UV protection.

Keep your fine leather furniture looking and feeling beautiful. Call Oxy-Dry!

Buying Online Versus a Local LEV (Light Electric Vehicle) Shop?

Should I buy an E Bike, E Scooter, E Mobility, or kids E Toy from a specialized local dealer with parts and service or should I buy online from somebody I will never meet?

Q: A:

How can I leave a financial legacy to my grandkids?

There is a simple strategy that bypasses wills, probate fees, and lawyers.

Grandparents can purchase (and be controlling owners) of a Cash Value Life Insurance Policy on their child, and have their grandchild as the beneficiary. Insurance on your child is certainly less expensive than on you, since they are younger.

Note that there are two parts to such a policy; the investment part and the life insurance part. By putting money into the investment part of the policy, your grandchild has the potential to receive a gift of money from you when they are young adults (for school or the down payment of a home). They can also receive a lump sum later in life when your son or daughter passes away.

If set up properly, you will maintain control of the policy, and can make changes in the future.

Contact Gary to find out if this strategy would work well for you.

news _______________ DAY OF REMEMBRANCE

Curtail road traffic accidents by staying alert I came very close to cutting off an oncoming cyclist the other day while I was making a left turn.

It was one of those “close calls” that had been regular features of my driving experience until the Spring, 2012, when I started using a tool to help me focus on the critically important task at hand.

It is a simple tool: Making the conscious effort of keeping my hands at a certain position on the steering wheel.

When my mind wanders, so do my hands. The movement of my hands to more comfortable positions alerts me to refocus my attention.

I stopped having those “close calls” that Achieving cause shivers Justice down your spine with the PAUL realization that HERGOTT you have just about caused a crash.

My personal success lead me, in the Spring, 2013, to issue a challenge for all drivers to use the same tool.

I called it “doing the 10 and 2” for the hand position I had been taught as a young driver.

I have since learned that “9” and “3” or “8” and “4” might be more optimal hand positions, but the particular positioning you choose is irrelevant to the usefulness of the tool.

What happened the other day when I had another one of those “close calls?”

I was having an animated discussion with my associate on the way to a mediation for an ICBC claim.

My mind was focused on the factual and legal issues of the case. My driving turned into that dangerous, inattentive “autopilot” that causes crashes.

Had I not been cautioned by my associate, I would have pulled directly in front of the cyclist who was clearly and plainly there to be seen.

I wasn’t speeding, texting, talking on a cell phone, eating a sandwich, fiddling with the stereo or GPS, and I certainly wasn’t under the influence of alcohol.

There were no “don’ts” about my driving behaviour, but at that moment I was demonstrating the same driving inattention that causes one crash every two seconds in British Columbia.

I have now learned that I am not capable of maintaining driving focus while engaging in a complex discussion with my passenger, so that behaviour has been added to my own personal list of “don’ts.”

I think we get distracted by the “don’ts,” though.

There is one, very critical, “do” that if implemented would slash those crash statistics. How do we change our driving culture (I am including myself within that culture) to simply put our attention to the road as our forefront, rather than our background, focus of attention?

One way is by opening our eyes to the immense personal losses, in injuries and deaths, caused to British Columbians as crashes continue to occur at that insane rate of one every couple seconds.

Please join me and others at Kelowna’s third annual commemoration of the National Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims tonight (Wednesday, Nov. 19) in the Orchard Park Mall parking lot, corner of Dilworth Drive and Highway 97, at 5 p.m.

Paul Hergott is a personal injury lawyer at Hergott Law in West Kelowna. paul@hlaw.ca

Electro-pollution health concerns addressed Dr. Ross Anderson will discuss the health concern of electropollution Tuesday, Nov. 25, 8:30 p.m., at Choices Kelowna, 1937 Harvey Ave. Anderson’s goal is to eliminate electro-pollution toxins from the air.
