City gets grantsin-lieu, less than last year The City of Cranbrook will be receiving $24,000 from the province as compensation for municipal property taxes in the form of grants-in-lieu.

The grants are distributed every November by the provincial government. Last year Cranbrook received just under $30,000, while in 2012 it received just under $29,000.

“This annual payment from the B.C. government is just shy of $24,000, which reimburses municipalities for city services, specifically roads, sewer, police and fire protection, that benefit provincially owned government properties in Cranbrook, like the courthouse, provincial government office buildings and warehouses,” explained Chris Zettel, the city’s corporate communications officer.

Zettel noted the grant-inlieu payment is made in accordance to the Municipal Aid Act and based on the assessed value of local properties and the city’s tax rate.

The province is distributing approximately $17.1 million to 59 communities throughout the province.

Schools and hospitals are exempt from paying municipal property taxes and are not part of the grant-in-lieu calculation.

The Cranbrook CPC Hornets hosted their home tournament this past weekend at the Memorial and Western Financial Place arenas. It was a very successful tournament with eight teams attending. The Hornets went undefeated in the round robin, beating the Calgary Royals Blue AA, Spokane Jr. Chiefs AA, and the Leduc Roughnecks AA. They then defeated the Calgary Northstar Canucks 3-2 in the semi finals and came out on top with a double overtime win against the Lloydminster Synergy Blazers in the finals.

Scott Driver, deputy director of Cranbrook Fire and Emergency Services, said this is the first time they’ve done this type of

training.

“We’ve done different CP Rail training in the past,” he said, adding that this was a new initiative from the railroad corporation.

The November Kootenay East Regional Hospital District (KERHD) meeting started off with a tribute to outgoing KERHD board chair John Kettle.

Kettle joined the Kootenay East Regional Hospital District Board in 2003 and was first elected chair in 2008.

“A great deal has been accomplished during his time on the board,” said KERHD acting chair Dean McKerracher. “In 2007, the year before Mr. Kettle took over as chair, the Kootenay East Regional Hospital District taxation was at its highest. Since then, the taxation has decreased every year until 2014 when it held steady.

“To put this into numbers, the 2014 requisition was 39 per cent lower than it was in 2007.

“Yes, some of this is to do with the major upgrade of the East Kootenay Regional Hospital, but much of it is to the credit of chair Kettle’s leadership which included a regular reminder to us all that we mainly fund only bricks and mortar.”

Kettle was instrumental in advancing projects at the East Kootenay Regional Hospital including the ICU rede-

velopment and electrical upgrade, a new CT scanner, and an improved isolation room air system which totalled almost $23 million. In addition, the $4.3 million Invermere Hospital emergency room upgrade was undertaken sooner than expected due to the Kettle’s efforts to advance the project at the provincial level.

“John worked tirelessly in the background with Interior Health, the Ministry, Ministers and MLAs to advocate for the region and build strong working relationships,” added McKerracher. “We will miss his leadership.”

Kettle, who did not run for re-election, will spend time with his family over the next few months and hopes to continue to be involved in health advocacy.

The Kootenay East Regional Hospital District covers a large area including the RDEK, and Creston and Golden and their surrounding rural communities. The function of the Hospital District is to provide up to 40 per cent of the funding for equipment and construction projects at health care facilities within the Hospital District, with the remaining cost being covered by Interior Health.

Crews get ready for rail incident training

Photo courtesy Jane Nixon

Clayton Lepine is pictured getting ‘air’ on the playground at Pinewood Elementary School.

Continued from page 1

The training will be split into four sessions, so that the whole crew can do it while they are working.

“There was an area representative from CP Rail that came through a couple weeks ago and told us about this training opportunity,” Driver said.

The presenter of the classroom based sessions is Dustin Ritter, Hazmat and Emergency Response Officer for CPR, who is also responsible for any incidents in the East Kootenay region. The training comes on the heels of a number of significant train derailments across Canada over the past two years.

“This training is very timely and we appreciate that CP Rail is providing the training and the opportunity to cross train with other agencies that have a role in railcar incidents,” says Wayne Price, director of Cranbrook Fire and Emergency Services.

Driver noted that the training will include things like effective points of contact, sizing up a derailment scene, car and locomotive

anatomy, shutting down locomotives and securing equipment.

Driver said fire crews have an idea of the types of shipments coming through already, as they have an agreement with CP Rail and the company provides reports on rail shipments that have come through.

“We don’t have real time numbers on the shipments coming through today and tomorrow, but over the course of time periods they tell us these are the highest quantities of things coming through,” he explained. “So we do have this information.

You can base what’s happening in the past to what is happening now.

And really, the numbers are so big we’ve got an idea of what is coming through town now.”

Driver said CP Rail did provide it in terms of the top 25 hazardous materials coming through, but the information is confidential.

“It was released to the fire department so we can prepare, not for industry to find out,” he said.

Grants-in-lieu less than last year Continued from page 1

Other provincial assets such as highways, forests, parks or land under the control, management or administration of a Crown corporation are also excluded from compensation under the Act. BC Emergency Health Services is responsible for grants-inlieu payments for ambulance stations.

Since 2002, the government of British Columbia has distributed more than $220 million as grants-in-lieu to B.C. communities. A portion of the funds are paid by each community to its regional district, and both levels of local government use grants to help pay for local services.

This years’ payment from the Ministry of Technology, Innovation and Citizens’ Services is $1.1 million less than last year’s total of $18.2 million.

Melody Wey, from the ministry, said the reduction is attributed to a number of factors including decreases in assessed property values from BC Assessment, transferring ambulance stations to BC Emergency Health Services and government no longer having a presence in some municipalities due to selling or transferring of property assets.

The funds are distributed electronically by the Ministry of Technology, Innovation and Citizens’ Services.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Malcolm C: They warned me that I’d lose my mind as I grew older. What they didn’t tell me was that I wouldn’t miss it very much.

Paul Q: Naively, I used to believe that, if I managed to grow old without killing my fool self, people would respect me and come to me for advice, to draw on my accumulated knowledge. Well! They respect me all right. They escort me to chairs, wipe the drool off my chin, pat me on my bald head then head off to consult Google.

Colleen R: I don’t miss riding my horse nor flying down through powder on my skis. I don’t even miss the days we spent on our yacht. I’m happy because I am still healthy and fit enough to do what I want to do right now.

George C: If, like me, you give up smoking and drinking, you don’t live longer; it just seems longer.

Emma P: Just have to keep moving.

Can’t have moss growing on my north side.

Mac T: I really wish I had done lots of stupid, adventurous things things. Maybe I did. I should’ve kept a diary.

Henry Q. It’s been a good run for our money but we’re both glad that we elected to live in a First World country. Third world? Been there, done that.

Elizabeth H: I’ve got to that age when the only sport I can manage is hunting for my glasses.

Will the real Kootenay Ice please stand up?

Forward Austin Vetterl knows critics around the WHL are skeptical as to which version of the Kootenay Ice is the real one.

The first to surface was a team outscored by a combined margin of 37-12 over a seven-game losing skid stretching Oct. 18 to Oct. 31.

The second team to come to light is in the midst of a five-game winning streak, which began Nov. 1 and has seen the Ice outscore opponents 24-18 along the way.

Vetterl and the Ice put that five-game run on the line, looking to prove doubters wrong, when the Central Division-leading Medicine Hat Tigers visit Western

Financial Place Wednesday night.

“It’s a big test. We had a tough start, but now we’re on a fivegame win streak,” Vetterl said Tuesday afternoon prior to practice. “People are going to say, ‘Are these guys for real or not?’ I think by beating the Medicine Hat Tigers, it would really show that we’re a team that’s upand-coming and we’re going to make a bang in the conference.”

Coinciding with the renewed edge is the return of captain Sam Reinhart from the NHL’s Buffalo Sabres.

The 19-year-old native of North Vancouver has tallied 10 points (3G, 7A) since returning to the Kootenay Ice lineup Nov. 7 against the Edmonton Oil Kings. After a seven-point performance (1G, 6A) through two contests this past

Kootenay Ice captain Sam Reinhart, pictured battling in front of the Medicine Hat net during the 2014 WHL playoffs, was named WHL Player of the Week Monday afternoon. weekend, the 6-foot-1 pivot was named WHL Player of the Week.

“I’m pretty familiar with the guys I’ve been playing with and they’ve obviously made things easy for me,” Reinhart said Tuesday afternoon.

“A lot of [credit] goes out to them.”

Reinhart has spent the bulk of his evenstrength time flanked by 20-year-old French sensation Tim Bozon and 18-year-old Zak Zborosky, who is on the NHL Central Scouting watch list ahead of the 2015 NHL Entry Draft.

Bozon has been steady of late, posting five points (3G, 2A) in four games since returning from injury and suiting up alongside Reinhart. As for Zborosky, the Regina native has tallied two goals and three assists in four games since

joining the veterans on Kootenay’s top line.

“With Sam, you not only get a great player, but you get a great leader in the room who everyone can look at and say, ‘We’ve got to follow him and do what he does,’” Vetterl said. “Obviously, he’s a great player and changes the game.”

Vetterl mentioned how Reinhart’s presence has helped shift players around the lineup in ways that provide them greater opportunity for success.

In particular, 19-yearold Luke Philp has rocketed to the top of the Kootenay Ice scoring charts, rattling off nine points (5G, 4A) over the team’s five-game winning streak. Included in that is a four-point performance Nov. 14 against the Calgary Hitmen.

Led by 5-foot-9

right-winger Cole Sanford, who is third in league scoring (14G, 17A) heading into the Tigers’ Tuesday tilt with the Red Deer Rebels, Medicine Hat will provide a measuring stick of sorts as the Kootenay Ice battle to establish themselves in the ever-tough WHL Central Division.

“They’re a small, fast team with a good defense,” Vetterl said.

“We’ve got to limit their forwards. We can’t turn the puck over at their blue line, we’ve got to be physical on them. We’ve got to take away their speed and capitalize on our scoring chances.”

Wednesday marks the first time the two teams will have met since April 16 when the Tigers erased the Ice from the 2014 WHL playoff scene with a 4-1 win in Game 7 of the Eastern

NFL suspends Minnesota Vikings RB Adrian Peterson Dave C ampbell Associated Press

MINNEAPOLIS Adrian Peterson’s future with the Minnesota Vikings dimmed Tuesday, with the NFL suspending the star running back without pay for at least the rest of the season.

As his representatives initiated an appeal, Peterson remained at the centre of an escalating dispute between the NFL and NFL Players As-

sociation over the player discipline process.

Commissioner Roger Goodell told Peterson he will not be considered for reinstatement before April 15 for his violation of the NFL personal conduct policy - the first example of a crackdown on players involved with domestic violence.

The NFLPA announced it would immediately appeal, calling for

a neutral arbitrator to handle it, and rebuked the league for what it labeled as inconsistency and unfairness in determining discipline. The NFL’s words were stronger, with a nearly 1,600word statement spelling out the conditions for Peterson’s path to return, describing the reasons for the punishment.

Peterson pleaded no contest Nov. 4 to misde-

meanour reckless assault for injuries to his 4-year-old son with a wooden switch. He said he intended no harm, only discipline. Peterson was on a special exempt list, essentially paid leave while the case went through the legal system.

The NFLPA said Peterson was told that time would count toward a suspension, citing an unidentified NFL execu-

tive. League spokesman Brian McCarthy said the stay on the exempt list was taken into account.

Peterson’s salary for the season was $11.75 million. He will keep the money accrued while on the exempt list. The NFL’s punishment has amounted to a 14-game ban, with six unpaid weeks equivalent of a fine of more than $4.1 million.

Conference semifinal.

“Obviously that’s always in the back of your mind, but at the same time, it’s a new season,” Vetterl said. “We’ve just got to go out, we’ve got to play the game, play the right way. We can’t look to take cheap shots [because of] last year or anything like that. We want to go out and we just want to get a win.”

A win won’t come easy for Vetterl and the Ice. At 14-4-1-1, the Tigers are the class of the Central Division, sitting second in the WHL’s Eastern Conference behind the Brandon Wheat Kings (17-4-1-0).

“It’s no question, they’ve had a good start,” Reinhart said. “We’re trying to get back on pace with a team like them in the standings. It’s a good

test to see how we play up against them.”

Notes: The Ice will once again be without F Jon Martin (upper body, one week), F Kyle O’Connor (lower body, one to two weeks), F Levi Cable (lower body, one to two weeks) and D Tanner Faith (upper body, one to three weeks)…With his goal Nov. 15 at Lethbridge, Reinhart surpassed F Steve DaSilva (2004-08) for fourth in franchise goal-scoring.

DaSilva tallied 103 goals in 271 games, while Reinhart has 104 goals in 207 games…Next up, Reinhart chases F Jarret Stoll (1997-2002) for the Kootenay Ice franchise lead in assists. Stoll tallied 162 helpers in 245 games. Reinhart has 160 assists heading into Wednesday night...

by Jacqueline Bigar

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Your initial reaction to a situation could be anger or frustration. Reach out to a creative person who loves swapping ideas with you. You might discover that the two of you are capable of solving the world’s problems!

Tonight: Favorite person, favorite place.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You might have to justify your reaction to an emotional inquiry. Remain centered in a discussion involving a matter in your daily life. Please note what makes you happy, and base more of what you do on creating greater contentment. Tonight: Have a long-overdue chat.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You could be trying to avoid a conflict with a loved one; however, this might be impossible, as this person seems to be on the warpath. Once the air is cleared, you will feel much better. Be careful about accepting any more responsibilities. Tonight: Kick back and relax.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You could be more irritated about a personal matter than you realize. In fact, you might have a very strong reaction to a call from someone involved.

Choose your words with care, or wait until you feel you can have a reasonable conversation.

Tonight: Be a flirt.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Someone will take you at your word, and might not realize how upset you are about a situation.

Try to root out the cause of this frustration. The good news is that you are likely to get the issue straightened out sooner rather than later. Tonight: Meet friends for some drinks.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) A risk could have greater ramifications than what you’ll want to deal with. Understand what is happening with a loved one, as he or she might need more of your attention or caring. Make time for this person. Tonight: Reach out to a friend you rarely have time to chat with.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You inadvertently could irritate

Tundra

a family member, especially if you are in the process of negotiating a matter related to property. Your determination likely will work in your favor, but you can still expect to hit a snafu. Try not to be so tough on this person.

Tonight: Indulge a little.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You could be out of sorts yet determined to have your way. As a result, you could isolate yourself for a good part of the day. It is unclear whether you will gain any ground right now. Schedule a massage instead. Tonight: Nap, and you’ll wake up with a smile.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) A long-term goal could cost you more than you might expect.

You are unlikely to say anything right away, as you’ll detach to see the problem in a different light. You could be drawn in to a highly volatile discussion; choose your words with care.

Tonight: Stay close to home.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Lately it seems as if you have been unusually volatile and touchy. A boss could trigger a new level of frustration. Deal

with this person on a one-onone level with the understanding that he or she might have little to do with the matter at hand. Tonight: Join friends!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You suddenly might decide to cancel a trip. You could be sitting on a lot of unexpressed anger and not be aware of it. You will soon, though. If you can get to the root of the problem, you will facilitate your life and others’ lives too. Tonight: Only where there is music.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You might want to keep a conversation you have had with a loved one to yourself for now and not share it with someone else it involves. In this situation, it is important to realize that some things are better left unsaid. Sympathize, but don’t take sides! Tonight: Try a new pastime.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: You recently printed a letter from a woman who asked whether her biological daughter could be a sociopath.

Could you please list the characteristics of a sociopath in your column?

Our adult daughter is involved with someone we feel is not good for her. She seems to be oblivious to what is going on and probably will not recognize the signs, but if you could raise awareness, maybe it will prevent someone else from having to go through what our family is going through now. -Learning Experience Dear Learning: According to material from the National Institutes of Health: Sociopathology, also known as antisocial personality disorder, is a mental health condition in which a person has a long-term pattern of manipulating, exploiting or violating the rights of others. Genetic factors and environmental factors, such as child abuse, are believed to contribute to the development of this condition. People with an antisocial or alcoholic parent are at increased risk.

Fire-setting and cruelty to animals during childhood are linked to the development of antisocial personality.

Symptoms include: being able to act witty and charming; being good at flattery and manipulating other people’s emotions; breaking the law repeatedly; disregarding the safety of self and others; having problems with substance abuse; lying, stealing and fighting often; not showing guilt or remorse; often being angry or arrogant.

Dear Annie: With the holidays approaching, how can a host encourage interaction with guests without being rude about cellphones?

I recently attended a party where I knew few people. I spoke with the hostess when she wasn’t busy and later found another woman with whom I had some common interests. I tried to engage some of the younger children in a game, but they were glued to their iPods. Other female guests were on their cellphones. I finally found two men in the garage who were not on their cellphones.

If I were the host, I’d get the impression that my guests think I’m dull and only came to eat the food I worked hard to prepare.

People put up no-smoking signs in their homes. Is it out of line to ask guests to check their phones at the door or put them away in their purses or coat pockets until they leave?

Am I the only one who is offended by this behavior? -- In a Fog in Kentucky Dear Fog: Hardly. People are addicted to their cellphones. The constant beeping and vibrations encourage them to check the screen every few seconds. It is perfectly OK for you to announce politely that you’d appreciate it if guests would turn off their phones or set them on silent and leave them in their purses or pockets. Some may even comply.

Dear Annie: “Grieving in Iowa” said he lost his life partner of 33 years and his partner’s sister lashed out at him. It’s amazing to me how these stressful situations bring out the worst in people.

My husband and I had been together for five years when I found out how much his family disliked me. I was always a little uncomfortable around them, but after a sudden illness, I was cornered in a hospital room and accused of being a “gold digger,” and if the family had their way, I would be kicked to the curb. Fortunately, my husband and I are committed to each other despite what his family says or thinks.

I tried to get along with those who were the most hurtful, but it became too difficult to walk on eggshells, always watching what I said so it couldn’t be misconstrued. I went to counseling and learned that it’s OK to give up on toxic people who make it their life’s mission to find fault with others. My husband and I have thrived without them.

Obituaries

Obituaries Pauline Beresford Gold (nee Thomas) April 27, 1922 October 27, 2014

Pauline passed away peacefully in Cranbrook, BC at the age of 92 after living a life devoted to her family and friends. Pauline was born in Calgary, AB and moved to Kimberley as a young girl. She gathered special friends as she followed her husband from Kimberley to Tulsequah, HB Mine, Riondel, Port McNeill, Trail, Elkford, and Cranbrook, always keeping the philosophy to try her best every day, regardless of lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hurdles. She took pride in making the most of the places she lived at by staying healthy, maintaining her home and garden. Her greatest joy of all was her family, whom she loved to talk about with her friends, and wonderful caregivers at Joseph Creek. She enjoyed staying current with the news and the changing events of the world. Occasions with family and friends were deeply treasured and talked about for years. She loved to keep her family current, and would take any opportunity to have fun, tell stories, and fill the room with laughter.

She is survived by her children: Greg (June) Gold, Jeff (Joan) Gold, Jill (Greg) Lee, Rob (Lisa) Gold; eleven grandchildren: Christy, Ross, Ryan, Nicole, Jenny, Scott, Erin, Holly, Lorraine, David, and Thomas; and ten great grandchildren. She was predeceased by her husband of 69 years David Gold, their daughter Diana Lee Gold, and all of her siblings: Thelma Goosney, Vivian Thomas, Eileen Donald, and Norman Thomas.

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to advertise to get your share of business or lose it to the stores that do. If you cut back on your advertising, you may forfeit new prospective customers to your competition.

3. Advantage Over Competitors Who Cut Back.

A five year survey of more than 3,000 companies found that advertisers who maintained or expanded advertising during a troubled economy saw sales increase an average of 100%.

4. Continuous Advertising Strengthens Your Image.

When people who postpone buying come back to the marketplace, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a better chance of getting their business if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve continued to maintain a solid, reliable image.

5. Direct Advertising is Cost Efficient.

Direct has the advantages â&#x20AC;&#x201C; demographic and geographic numbers to afford advertisers the best value and exposure for their advertising dollar.

6. Advertise to Generate Traffic.

Continuous traffic is the first step toward sales increases and expanding your base of buyers. The more people who contact you, the more possibilities you have to make sales.

7. Advertise to Make More Sales.

Advertising works! Businesses that succeed are usually strong, steady advertisers. Look around. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find the most aggressive and consistent advertisers are almost invariably the most successful.

8. Advertise Because There is Always Business to Generate.

Salespeople are on the payroll. As long as youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in business, you have overhead and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to advertise to generate a steady cash flow.

9. Advertise to Keep a Healthy Positive Image.

In a troubled economy, rumors and bad news travel fast.

Advertising corrects gossip, shoots down false reports and projects positively.

10. Advertise to Maintain Employee Morale.

When advertising and promotion are cut, salespeople become less motivated. They may believe the store is cutting back, even going out of business.
