PROUDLY SERVING THE COMMUNITIES OF ROSSLAND, WARFIELD, TRAIL, MONTROSE, FRUITVALE & SALMO
Former Fruitvale mayor donates land for more trails BY SHERI REGNIER Times Staff
Libby Nelson has always enjoyed the view from the top – of a mountain, that is. Now the former Fruitvale mayor is paying it forward with a generous land donation to the Beaver Valley Recreation, Parks and Trails committee. She's no longer living in the area. But the doting grandmother returned to town last week and formally handed over 95 acres of undeveloped property with hopes that hiking and biking trails will be further advanced on the high peaks behind Montrose. “It doesn't have road access which is a bit of a handicap,” Nelson said by phone from her Pitt Meadows home. “To be honest, I bought it years ago because I always loved the view and in my dream world, I hoped maybe someone, someday, would build a restaurant there,” she laughed. “But the world moves on and I was just happy that the trails people can use it and others can get up there to enjoy the view.” Nelson suggests the name 'Columbia Ridge' be attached to the large chunk of land that begins at 12th Avenue in Montrose and runs upward into the regional district's Area A. The Beaver Valley committee has met to discuss the benevolent donation and although it’s too early to

detail any plans, Nelson looks forward to hearing about future trail development. “When I was leaving town, it seemed the right thing to do,” she added. “I hope people will enjoy it.” Prior to Nelson's gift of land, the BV committee had considered purchasing the property to expand its trail systems, explained Fruitvale Mayor Patricia Cecchini. “For about six months we've been working on the legal documentation for this extremely generous donation. Our trail system will be enhanced because the land gives us much more accessibility to create biking and hiking trails for recreation.” The donated land has housed the popular Antenna Trail since 2005, and has led to discussion on creating more parks and hiking trails across the region. “Libby Nelson has been very cooperative since we anticipated building the Antenna Trail in 2005,” explained Art Benzer, a member of the Antenna Trail group. “The land owners agreement is good for five years and she was very generous and signed another in 2010,” he explained. “She's been very appreciative that we've developed the system to where it is now.” The old trail with spectacular views of the Columbia River valley was developed for local hikers by a See FORMER, Page 3
Electricity bill going up again BY LIZ BEVAN Times Staff
The cost of electricity for FortisBC customers is, once again, on the rise. As of Jan. 1, 2015, electricity bills will see a 3.5 per cent increase, or an average of $4.12 more on each bi-monthly bill, and this isn't the first time. Over the past decade, FortisBC has enacted at least eight rate increases on electricity, totalling
31.1 per cent. The current rate increase isn't set in stone and is subject to review by the British Columbia Utilities Commission (BCUC) based on input from stakeholders, customers and municipalities. Requests for comment from the utility spokesperson went unanswered by press time but the company has given various reasons in the past while trying explain rate See VARIETY, Page 3

He came for the paycheque but stayed for the lifestyle. A twenty-something James Nelson first arrived in Trail back in 1948. He was a single strapping farm boy from Battleford Sask, who was ready to tackle the industry on the hill. Sixty-six years later, the long serving Warfield politician and 17-year village fire chief is still not ready to bow out of public service. He didn't win the mayoral seat in the Nov. 15 civic election – but given the chance, he'd give it all another go. “If they had another election next week, I'd put up my name,” said Nelson, known to all as Jim. “It's been a good run for both of us,” he said nodding to his wife, Jane. “I've enjoyed serving the Village of Warfield, it's been a privilege and one of those rewarding things in life.” Nelson became part of village politics about three decades ago following a very long run in the Warfield Volunteer Fire Department. “I needed to have a good diversion from my job at Cominco. Some take to drink, I took to the fire department,” he chuckled. Within months of finding and marrying a lovely Trail girl, Nelson joined the firefighting team. The year was 1950, which is when the village was incorporated from a water district into a municipality. Soon after, Warfield's fire truck was moved from a red shack on Wellington Street in Annable, to the village hall on Schofield Highway. The site not only housed the vehicle, but became the cornerstone of the community until the fire service was regionalized in 1983. Nelson's wife of almost 65 years, Jane (née Aiken), fondly recalled when families would gather in the fire hall on Saturday evenings to watch television and sip on a bottle of pop. “They had a TV, and of course, we didn't have one at home,” she said. “Over a

With the backing of his wife Jane, Jim Nelson has been serving the Village of Warfield for six decades. The former volunteer fire chief and village politician has officially retired, although he continues to give time to community events and plans to take his wife of 64 years on a dream cruise in the new year. period of time it developed into a social club and became part of the make up of the fire department.” Shorty after the tank room foreman retired from Cominco, Nelson took a rookie run for a seat on village council. He won first time out. Notably, the mayor during Nelson's first term was Bill Trewhella. Both men ran for the Warfield mayoral seat last month. Though neither was elected, Nelson said running against his longtime friend became a full circle moment almost three decades later, because both still have so much passion for their community. “Bill and I have the same interest in that the village is top priority,” he added.

Serving on the fire department opened many avenues, Nelson continued, adding that his philosophy was to knock on front doors and converse with constituents face-to-face. Over the years, he often carried through with home visits to settle problems ranging from parking disruptions to neighbourhood disputes. “It was very rewarding to set up dialogue with citizens and resolve their problems and move them ahead,” noted Nelson. As past president and a founder of the Warfield Credit Union, Nelson says developing that organization is one of his proudest accomplishments while in office. “Our first meeting for the Warfield Credit Union was on the tail gate of a fire truck,”

he recalled. “We were all young people raising families and at the time banks were not allowed to lend money for automobiles.” What began as a 50 cent investment for village residents, in time grew into an $18 million revenue solution, that has since transitioned into a branch of Kootenay Savings Credit Union. “A lot of legacies, including this subdivision, came from that,” explained Nelson, from his home on Whitman Way in the Emerald Ridge development. “The slide at the Warfield pool, the park behind the community hall, and other projects were generated from the profits.” Another major feat completed during Nelson's time while he served as mayor, and one he is particularly proud of, is the development of the village's own water infrastructure. “Teck decided it wasn't their core business to provide water to Warfield,” he explained. A group of citizens approached Nelson during his time as Warfield mayor, willing to plan and implement a new water supply for the village. “It took seven years to work out a deal,” Nelson noted. “This to me, is one of the major steps here in the village by a concerned group of citizens. And that committee is one of the reasons the village installed a water system on time and on budget.” There are still a few unresolved matters on Nelson's agenda that he planned to focus on had he been elected mayor for another four years. Dialogue with Teck regarding sharing industrial taxes is one, investigating amalgamation in the region is another. But he's feeling confident that five new faces on council is a positive step forward for the village. “There's no question you need new ideas and new blood to come along and move things ahead,” Nelson said. “Certainly their view will be somewhat different than yours, but they should be.”

RDCK to analyze recycling options
Mistletoe Market at Riverbelle
By Tamara Hynd Nelson Star
The Regional District of Central Kootenay board have directed staff to investigate options for an optimal recycling depot program in the Central sub-region, including a deeper analysis of depot equipment options and costs. “We’re looking at changing the way we handle our recycling,” said Central Resource Recovery Committee chair and Area F director Ron Mickel. Presently Multi Material BC is not providing that service for the RDCK. Central includes rural areas from Salmo to Meadow Creek, including areas D, E, F, G, and Nelson, Balfour, Ymir, Salmo and Kaslo. “One of the reasons is we spend a lot of money per tonne of recyclables with the system we have in place,” said Mickel. “ We’ve always thought ‘OK, they are talking about the number of depots that we have,’ but we try to service everybody. But we’re also very inefficient.” While the RDCK waits to sign an agreement with MMBC, recycling in the regional district continues under the status quo with a depot system, while Nelson, Nakusp, Kaslo, and Castlegar have curbside pick-up.
Variety of reasons for rate increases
FROM PAGE 1 increases to its customers. BC Hydro increased the price of electricity sold to FortisBC in 2009, resulting in a 4.6 per cent increase on customers’ bills. In 2007, the utility raised their rates by 1.2 per cent, citing capital programs designed to follow customer growth and higher prices for electricity from BC Hydro. The BCUC approved a customer rate increase of six percent in 2010 due to a decision increasing the amount of money paid out to shareholders and to meet a higher customer demand for power.

A sign-in box, added in 2010, recorded up to 700 hikers that year, growing to nearly double the following year and up to 2,000 signatures by this March. Benzer has been committed to the development of this trail over the years, which has included the addition of
the flag pole viewpoint, a re-purposed Cominco Arena bench for taking in views of the Rossland Range from the flag and a sign to clarify and identify the range’s 11 peaks. Last spring, the popular hike was turned into a loop trail with the addition of the new Old Orchard arm, which runs from the flagpole toward the end of 12 Avenue. “Libby was a long term mayor who not only dedicated much of her life to community service, but has been generous in many other ways,” said Ali Grieve, Area A director. “This is a great

She was the first female Mayor of Fruitvale (which was incorporated in 1952) following 10-years of service on the school board. She sat as a Regional District of Kootenay Boundary Director for Fruitvale and was a recipient of the Queen Elizabeth II Golden Jubilee Medal in 2002, the Diamond Jubilee Medal in 2012, and received the Province of BC Community Achievement Award in 2013. Nelson retired from public office in November 2011.

Provincial
Surgical wait times average five months in B.C. By Jeff Nagel BC Local News
A new report by the Fraser Institute criticizes long waits for surgery in B.C. and accuses the province of routinely underestimating the wait times it publishes on its website. B.C. patients wait an average of five months for medically necessary elective surgery, according to the annual report by the think tank. It shows the average patient waits 9.5 weeks once referred by a GP
until they see a specialist and then another 11.6 weeks from the specialist appointment to surgery. The wait to see the specialist was unchanged in 2014 from 2013, but the wait from specialist to surgery increased slightly from 10.4 weeks a year ago, according to the report. And the overall wait of 21.1 weeks has more than doubled since 1993. The study examined a wide range of procedures and averaged the

wait times. Orthopedic surgery, neurosurgery and plastic surgery had the longest wait times nationally, while medical or radiation oncology had average waits of four weeks or less because cancer patients get high priority. Fraser Institute economist and report lead author Bacchus Barua said the wait times for treatment are “unacceptably high” despite high levels of health care spending. The findings also show B.C. patients are now waiting longer than they did two years ago for various diagnostic procedures. MRI waits have risen most dramatically, from 12 weeks in 2012 to 20 weeks this year – the longest in Canada – while CT scan and ultrasound
waits both rose from four to five weeks over the same period. B.C.’s health ministry publishes estimated wait times on its website, but the report argues those numbers are “inaccurate.” It says the 11.1-week wait time claimed by the ministry for orthopedic surgery as of this spring is mathematically impossible given the number of patients waiting in B.C. then and how fast surgeries were being done, suggesting the real wait would be 16 to 24 weeks longer. “Specialty by specialty, month in and month out, the median wait figures reported by the ministry remain consistently, and surprisingly, lower than expected given the number of patients waiting and the number of procedures can

can reasonably be expected to be performed per week.” The disparity between the government’s wait times and Fraser Health’s estimates is in part because the province only counts the wait for surgery as beginning when the hospital receives the operating room booking. Health ministry spokesperson Kristy Anderson said the Fraser Institute survey is based on personal opinion rather than hard clinical data because it relies on surveys of doctors. “We do recognize the challenge,” she said. “Despite increasing the number of surgeries and diagnostic exams, B.C. is facing unprecedented demand for health care services – putting pressure on our wait lists.”
The Tri-City News It’s official — the second Sunday after Labour Day will now be known as Terry Fox Day after the B.C. government legislated a day in Fox’s name. On Friday, the province officially announced the passing of the Terry Fox Day Act, which had been championed by Port Moody-Coquitlam MLA Linda Reimer. Fox, who was born in Winnipeg Manitoba, grew up in Port Coquitlam and trained in the Tri-Cities, is well known for inspiring the annual Terry Fox Run, which has raised $650 million for cancer research. “Terry Fox is an inspiration for British Columbians, Canadians, and people all over the world,” stated Premier Christy Clark, in a press release. “His message of hope and the movement he started continue to impact countless lives.” The official date was chosen to coincide with the annual Terry Fox runs which have raised more than $650 million for cancer research.
Deal reached with CN for Okanagan rail corridor Vernon Morning Star A coalition of Okanagan communities have signed a negotiated sales and purchase agreement with CN for the discontinued rail line between Kelowna and Coldstream. “This is a once-in-

tiated agreement with CN that both parties consider fair.” The negotiated cost to secure the corridor is a combination of $22-million in funds and land donation. Through the sales agreement, local municipalities will now have a 120-day due diligence period to
lift conditions, which includes financing. Local governments are making every effort to minimize the current tax impact in the interest of securing a land asset that would be valued for generations. The specific land parcels fall within the jurisdictions

of Kelowna, Lake Country, Coldstream and the Regional District of the North Okanagan, so funding options such as partnerships, grants, municipal reserves or borrowing will be finalized by those jurisdictions during the due diligence period. Gilchrist says the local governments support the Okanagan Indian Band in its claim over land along Kalamalka Lakje and as such, those parcels have been excluded from the pending agreement. The agreement stipulates that CN will attempt to remove the rail infrastructure from the corridor for salvage by the end of 2015. Once the discontinuance process has concluded, and assuming public ownership is achieved,Gilchrist says local governments will establish construction and operation agreements; determine future costs and other considerations as part of protecting the rail corridor for future generations. The jurisdictions have jointly identified the value the rail line could have as a continuous multi-modal transportation corridor connecting all the communities.

national Ontario
New mayor for Toronto THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO - The Rob Ford era is officially over in Toronto. The term of the colourful and scandalplagued mayor ended today as his successor, John Tory, took over leadership of Canada’s most populous city. Premier Kathleen Wynne met with Tory - a former Ontario PC leader - at her office this morning at Queen’s Park. Wynne and Tory say they agree it’s important to get all levels of government working together, with Wynne adding, “If the communication is better, there’s more potential that more can get done.” Ford has been seldom seen since being diagnosed with a rare form of cancer, which led him to drop his bid for another term as mayor, although he did win a seat on council. He issued a statement Sunday thanking the people of Toronto for their support while he was mayor and vowing to continue fighting against what he called “extravagance, wastefulness, and a general disrespect for both the taxpayers and their hard-earned dollars.” Tory and his new council are to take the oath of office in front of the city clerk today, before being publicly sworn in today at council’s first meeting of the new term. Ford won the mayor’s office in 2010 and became an international celebrity after months of scandal that began last year, including admitting to using crack cocaine during a “drunken stupor,” and then completing a stint in rehab. Tory says transportation will be at the top of his agenda, among other issues.

Stranded hikers rescued THE CANADIAN PRESS KANANASKIS, Alta. - Alberta Mounties used snowmobiles to rescue hikers stranded in deep snow and plunging temperatures in Kananaskis on the weekend. Cpl. Tiffany McGregor says three men from High River and Okotoks had been hiking in the area since early Saturday. Late in the day, one of them had trouble with his knees and could no longer walk. Another man in the group walked two kilometres to a road where he was able to get cell service and call for help. McGregor says police and conservation officers used snowmobiles to get the remaining pair out of the bush about 1 a.m. Sunday. She says temperatures had dipped to about -35 C, but the men were wearing proper clothing and were cold but not hypothermic.
Social security tribunal backlog includes terminally ill and others deep in debt THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA - Terminal cancer patients, organtransplant recipients and suicidal, debtaddled Canadians are among the 11,000 people waiting to have their appeals heard by Ottawa’s badly backlogged social security tribunal. Some of those awaiting a decision on their eligibility for benefits, including people with debilitating injuries, have had their cases expedited due to severely declining health. Others, however, have waited years some are still waiting - to hear whether the initial decision to deny them Canada Pension Plan disability benefits will be overturned. Given the nature of their illnesses, a decision may come too late. “I prayed for patience and every day it came to me and I believed I would finally get what was rightfully mine,” said Terry Petrow, 62, a former grocery executive suffering a severe back condition that has consistently worsened after an accident when he was in his 20s. Petrow, who is undergoing back surgery soon, was finally granted benefits last month after waiting almost five years to
have his appeal heard. He’s grateful his wife’s income kept the couple afloat during the ordeal. “Thank God for that,” Petrow said Monday in an interview from his Manitoba home. “I can’t imagine how terrible it would be to endure the financial horror stories I’ve heard other people are experiencing in this system.” Federal government data obtained under the Access to Information Act shows 58 per cent of Canadians who applied for disability benefits last year were denied. About 40 per cent of those who appeal are successful. In the tribunal’s first 18 months of operation, the backlog of CPP disability and old-age security cases has increased by almost 50 per cent. Jason Kenney, the employment and social development minister, has promised to shrink the backlog of cases, saying the new tribunal didn’t expect to inherit more than 6,000 cases left outstanding from the old system. The tribunal has also hired an outside consulting firm to help it come up with a plan to deal with the pileup, and additional staff has been brought

on to wrestle with the ever-growing number of cases. Petrow credits his representative throughout the appeal process - Allison Schmidt, a Reginabased pension-disability case manager - for navigating a complex system. “I only have one word to describe Allison, and that is ‘Angel.”’ That “angel,” meantime, has been receiving letters from the tribunal suggesting that she is “unauthorized” to help CPP disability applicants make appeals to the new panel under law society rules and regulations that differ from province to province. In Ontario, for example, a representative must be a lawyer or a paralegal. Other provincial law societies have no such requirements. “Members of the tribunal may refuse to proceed with the hearing upon discovering that a representative is unauthorized,” reads one letter to Schmidt from a tribunal administrator, suggesting she could be reported to various law societies for her work. “In such cases, the hearing may be adjourned and a final decision on the appeal file could be signifi-

cantly delayed.” Schmidt, a vocal critic of the government’s new tribunal, has been appearing at CPP disability hearings for almost two decades on behalf of disabled Canadians, but she is neither a lawyer nor a paralegal. Her company employs a paralegal, however, who represents clients in Ontario during various stages of the appeal process. In a blog post published Monday, Schmidt suggested the tribunal is targeting her. The tribunal, meantime, says it was simply making sure representatives were aware of the regulations in various provinces in advance of upcoming hearings. In an interview Monday, Schmidt said requirements to hire lawyers or paralegals add even further hardship to Canadians waiting for their appeals to be heard - they’re already financially strapped, she pointed out, given they’ve been denied CPP disability
benefits for years. “Who can afford to hire a lawyer when you’re in dire financial straits as it is?” said Schmidt. “Many of these individuals lack the ability to meet the basic necessities of life and their medical needs. Their families’ security and stability is threatened at its core.” Among the cases considered “crisis files” by the tribunal are numerous people who have asked for their cases to be expedited due to terminal illness or financial hardship. “I am disgusted,” said Stu Lang, another appellant with a debilitating knee injury who finally won his appeal in September after a five-year battle. Lang, 62, said he resents having to pay tax on the five years of benefits that will soon be paid to him. “That is money I have already given the government, and that I am entitled to, and now I have to pay the government again in taxes.”

Nisga’a prove their critics wrong
t has been 15 years since I wrote a commentary objecting to the B.C. government pushing aside its own hard-won treaty process to reach an unprecedented land-and-cash settlement with the Nisga’a Nation for their ancient Nass River territory. My objection, and that of many others, was the imposition of a parallel state with collectively owned land enshrined for all time. This was an ailing NDP government rushing to enable a property ownership system that has demonstrated little but failure and suffering around the world. The Nisga’a are proving me wrong, and this was again demonstrated at a little-noticed ceremony at the B.C. legislature last week. The B.C. government had just passed amendments to allow a gas pipeline through Nisga’a Memorial Lava Bed Park, the first co-managed prov-
incial park in B.C. history. Another bill enabled the Nisga’a Lisims government to impose industrial property tax on liquefied natural gas production. Legal documents were signed so the Nisga’a legislature can do the same this week. In recent years, the Nisga’a disposed of concern about collective land restrictions by adopting a private property system. And Supreme Court of Canada decisions have repeatedly answered protests about the establishment of a parallel state – that’s what it is, so get used to it. The Nisga’a have moved to assemble four fee-simple tidewater sites for LNG terminals, joining the Haisla Nation at Kitimat in reaching aggressively for a modern economy through gas export. The Nisga’a have partnered with TransCanada Corp. on a 900-km pipeline to supply the $11-bil-

lion LNG project led by Petronas for the Prince Rupert port. And they don’t intend to stop there. “We want to be part of the Canadian business establishment,” said former Nisga’a Nation president Joe Gosnell. The signing ceremony was briefly disrupted by one of a small group of Vancouver-based Nisga’a who have been using modern protest tactics against this decision. We weren’t consulted, it’s a desecration of victims of a volcanic eruption, it’s a threat to eelgrass beds, and so
forth, say well-rehearsed young men with video cameras running. Nisga’a President Mitchell Stevens has patiently and repeatedly explained that Nisga’a legislature rules were relaxed to allow every hereditary chief to speak to elected leaders on this pivotal move. After that it received the required two-thirds majority support. Gosnell, the revered chief negotiator who carried the treaty over the goal line in 2000, moved slowly with the help of an ornately carved cane to speak at a reception. He seemed genuinely surprised that he has lived long enough to see the fruits of generations of labour. Gosnell recounted the 1887 paddling trip down the B.C. coast from the Nass Valley to Victoria to present the Nisga’a territorial claim, where the tribal leaders were turned away on the steps of the
legislature by Premier William Smithe. It would take until 1910 for Prime Minister Wilfrid Laurier to promise a settlement, and until 1949 for Nisga’a Chief Frank Calder to be elected to the B.C. legislature. In 2000, when the treaty received royal assent in Ottawa, Gosnell took part in a ceremonial burning of the Indian Act and got to work on implementing self-government. And on Nov. 27, 2014, B.C. Liberal, NDP and independent MLAs voted unanimously to open the way to an industrial future for the Nisga’a. “That’s what being alive means to me today,” Gosnell said. “You’ve got to have big dreams. Maybe all those dreams won’t come true, but at least you have the ability to dream big. And boy, are we ever dreaming big.” Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, a helmetless storm trooper appeared in frame, panicked and sweaty in the middle of vast desert landscape, kicking off the first official look at “Star Wars: The Force Awakens.” After months of leaked images and idle speculation around director J.J. Abrams’ film, Disney and Lucasfilm on Friday debuted an 88-second teaser trailer for the seventh entry into the blockbuster franchise online and in about 30 North American theatres. The dark, energetic teaser, which has been watched nearly 3 million times on YouTube, blasts viewers with quick, disjointed images of classic and slightly altered “Star Wars” images, like TIE Fighters, X-Wings, droids and the Millennium Falcon. The short spot previews a world 30 years after the events of “Return of the Jedi.” Despite some negative reaction, overall, fans were not disappointed, even with the sobering knowledge that the actual film doesn’t hit theatres till Dec. 18, 2015.

NBC playing it safe The Canadian Press The network that gave us unforgettable original comedies such as “Seinfeld,” “30 Rock,” “Scrubs” and “Community” seems to be going in another direction. Having passed on Tina Fey’s upcoming comedy “The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt,” which instead will be hitting Netflix, it’s clear that NBC is keen to play it safe going forward. “Advertisers are putting more money into down-homier fare,” writes Variety of NBC’s strategy to move away from edgier or less-conventional fare.

For large swaths of North
America, this November has been the coldest on record. What can this possibly mean? “Protection of consumers” refers not to security of supply, upon which the NEB insists, but to cheap prices for Laurentian consumers. But given their aversion to developing their own gas fields, why should Western producers subsidize Easterners? Regarding these Laurentian “principles” Alberta Premier Jim Prentice said they were “not unreasonable.” Besides, he said, Energy East “is a nationbuilding project and I take the comments they made in that spirit.” If so, what does Prentice make of Ontario energy minister Bob Chiarelli’s remark that their conditions were “not an automatic ‘no’” to Energy East? When Wynne and Couillard agreed to build “a stronger and more competitive low-carbon economy,” was this reasonable? Worse, has Prentice forgotten that only Laurentian Canada can undertake nation-building? At this same meeting, Wynne declared “we believe that from the centre of the country we are giving Canadians the leadership that is much needed.” The poor saps in Ontario seem still to believe that. Leadership means taking risks. Were Prentice as forthright as Russ Girling he would tell Wynne and Couillard: support Energy East, develop your own gas, or freeze in the dark. That might concentrate Laurentian minds on economic reality. Barry Cooper teaches political science at the University of Calgary.
THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO - Archaic anticruelty legislation and weak transportation laws are among the reasons for Canada’s mediocre ranking when it comes to animal protection, according to a new global assessment. Overall, Canada gets a D rating on the animal protection index, which rates 50 countries on a scale of A to G on the strength of their policy and legislative commitments to animal welfare and protection. Criminal Code anti-cruelty law remains largely unchanged since it was drafted more than a century ago, said Melissa Matlow, a spokesman for World Animal Protection. The legisla-
being of any particular animal, the assessment finds. Spearheaded by Londonbased World Animal Protection - formerly the World Society for the Protection of Animals - the index is based on 15 indicators, such as whether legislation recognizes that animals are sentient beings capable of suffering. Other indicators assess the treatment of animals in captivity and those used in vivisection, and protection afforded wild animals. It’s the first time the index has been published. “The results of the index speak for themselves,” CEO Mike Baker said on the group’s website.
Cooper
Canada lagging in animal protection tion, she said, still brands animals as property. “That’s a big problem,” Matlow said. “It doesn’t reflect attitudes toward animals that are changing.” According to the assessment, another key area of weakness relates to rules around farm animal transport. “We’re the only developed country that I know of that allows some farm animals to be transported for up to two days without food, water and rest,” Matlow said. In addition, protection for wild animals across Canada is inconsistent and mainly focused on the preservation of species rather than the well-

Michaelle Jean
Former GG named head of Francophonie
THE CANADIAN PRESS DAKAR, Senegal Former governor general Michaelle Jean has been named the first woman leader of la Francophonie and says its members must work closely together to ensure prosperity and stability. While the organization has concentrated largely on cultural issues over the
years, Jean signalled on Sunday that more emphasis will be put on economic matters. “One of the most ambitious and daring objectives that la Francophonie has ever set for itself is the idea of an economic Francophonie,” she told a news conference after being named by consensus at a summit of its members in
In loving memory of
Erika Anneliese Olga Mueller
Erika was born in Magdeburg, Germany on April 17, 1918 and passed away in Castlegar on November 19, 2014. A long time Rossland resident before moving to Castlegar, she is survived by her Sister, Barbara Preece, and Nephew, George Preece, both of Lethbridge, Alberta and was predeceased by her Husband, Herman Mueller. Expressions of sympathy can be forwarded to c/o Judy Griffiths, PO Box 1209, Rossland, BC V0G 1Y0 or judygrif@telus.net.
Dakar, Senegal. “We need to work together, unite our efforts, especially as countries want growth, prosperity and development, knowing for example that a crisis in Mali is not (just) a Malian crisis.” She said a sharply focused economic strategy can provide “new relevance for la Francophonie.” “Countries, peoples and civilizations came together by doing business together, by exchanging economically together.” Jean, 57, was up against four other candidates at the summit of la Francophonie, whose 57 members include Canada, Quebec and New Brunswick. She will replace Abdou Diouf, who stepped down after more than 10 years in the position. Prime Minister Stephen Harper, who
attended the meeting with Quebec Premier Philippe Couillard and New Brunswick’s Brian Gallant, congratulated Jean and pointed out that Canada is the second biggest contributor to the organization. “Obviously, all Canadians are very proud that our fellow citizen, former governor general Michaelle Jean, will be succeeding Abdou Diouf as secretary general of la Francophonie,” Harper told a news conference. “I have no doubt she will fulfil her new responsibilities with distinction and success.” He said her victory also cast Canada in a positive light. “It’s a great reflection on our country, on the role we play in the francophone world, internationally, and the recognition of the importance of the
French fact and the French reality in our own country.” He refused to discuss details of how consensus emerged around Jean’s candidacy, but French President Francois Hollande told a news conference it was important to avoid a vote in order to ensure unity. Harper was asked whether the fact Canada is a bilingual country means the role of English within la Francophonie will suddenly become more important. “I suspect no,” he replied. “I suspect la Francophonie will continue to function in one language only and that will be French, just as the Commonwealth functions only in English.” Couillard hailed Jean, who was governor general between 2005 and 2010, as perfect for her new job.
A former Nelson man is the new secretarytreasurer of the BC Federation of Labour. Aaron Ekman, 36, was elected at the organization’s bi-annual convention last week, which also saw Irene Lanzinger elected president. Ekman replaces Lanzinger, who served two terms as secretary-treasurer. “It’s an exciting time to be involved,” he said in an interview Monday while apartment hunting in Vancouver. “I’m really looking forward to it.” Ekman moved to Nelson in 1991, graduated from L.V. Rogers in 1996, and attended Selkirk College in Castlegar. His parents still live in Rosemont. He was president of the UBC Okanagan Students Society, chaired the young workers’ committee of the Vancouver and District Labour Council. While working in commercial roofing, he joined Sheet Metal Workers Local 280 and became a director of the BC Federation of Labour in 2004. He began working for the BC Government Employees Union in 2008, and moved to Prince George the following year as a staff rep. His most recent position was as regional co-ordinator, responsible for four area offices. He was also founding president of the North Central Labour Council, which represents over 12,000 union members across northern BC. Ekman ran for secretary-treasurer on a ticket with Amber Hockin, Pacific director of the Canadian Labour Congress, who sought the presidency, but lost to Lanzinger by 57 votes. However, Ekman said he’ll have no trouble working with Lanzinger. “We have a strong working relationship,” he said. “We have worked together in the past. In labour, when we debate things on the convention floor, it’s the finer points. I’ve met with Irene since the convention and had some discussion about the best way to move forward.” “The position Amber and I took is that we need to find new ways to extend unions to a new generation of workers having difficulty getting in. Irene’s platform was to ensure the federation remains a platform for all workers, union or not.” Lanzinger indicated raising BC’s minimum wage to $15 per hour is one of her top goals, something Ekman says he is eager to get started on. Ekman also said he is “excited to have conversations with all members of the labour sector to find out what they need. There are new ways to structure unions around sectors that are quite different from those of our parents and grandparents.” While his new job is an elected position, Ekman said it’s more internal than Lanzinger’s, and includes charing the finance committee and preparing budgets. Ekman’s election means the BC Fed’s executive will maintain the same number of former Kootenaians: outgoing president Jim Sinclair was a reporter at the Nelson Daily News in the early 1980s. Sinclair, who was president for 15 years, did not stand for re-election.

Hawks beat down Border Bruins By Jim Bailey
Times Sports Editor
The Beaver Valley Nitehawks erupted for four goals in the second period to overcome a 2-1 first-period deficit on their way to a 7-2 drubbing of the Grand Forks Border Bruins Saturday at the Hawks Nest. After dropping a close 2-1 decision to the Creston Valley Thunder Cats on Friday, the Hawks recovered their scoring touch as Spencer McLean picked up four points including the winning goal, and the Hawks netted two short-handed markers from Tyler Hartman and Brayden Horcoff to get their 14th win of the season. “It was a good to see a positive response to the result on Friday we weren’t happy with,” said assistant coach Kevin Limbert. McLean broke in on a 2-on-1 with Tyler Hartman, and after taking the Hartman pass, the 16-yearold Montrose native wired a snap shot over the blocker of Bruins goalie Jacob Mullen to give the Hawks a 3-2 lead at 12:43 of the second period. It was McLean’s biggest output of the season, adding three assists to go along with his winning goal, for five goals and 12 assists this year. “He’s a kid that’s continually working hard and doesn’t always get the bounces or the points that he maybe deserves, but it was really good to see his hard work pay off,” said Limbert. McLean set up Hartman on the Hawks first goal, a shorthanded effort at 16:02 of the first. But Reid Robinson’s shot off the backboards took a funny bounce and caromed in off the back of the Hawks’ goalie Carson Schamerhorn to tie it at one. The Border Bruins would take the lead at 5:47 of the first period, when Lincoln

left, the stadium erupted in cheers and gasps as Banks returned a punt into the end zone, but an illegal block penalty scuttled the play. “When it’s live, you don’t really see it on the replay, so it’s hard to say if it was legit,”
Noble, 28 said of the penalty. “There were a few calls the other way earlier that were controversial, too.” Calgarian Merlin Radke noticed the penalty before Banks had even finished running. “I saw the flag drop right away so I kind of

Dumonceaux, Liam Coughlin and Luke Voltin before Trail got on the scoreboard at 6:03 of the second period when Vernon minor-hockey product, Harlan Orr, beat Vipes’ goalie Jarrod Schamerhorn, with assists going to Scott Davidson and Bryan Basilico. The Vipers’ have Trail’s number this year, winning all three matches, and have climbed into sole possession of second place in the Interior division with a 16-7-1-2 record, while the loss leaves the Smokies tied for fifth place with a 12-12-0-1 record, with two games in hand over Salmon Arm. Vernon would make it 5-1 before eventual third-star Orr netted his second goal of the night and Scott Davidson added his second assist. Both teams were 1-4 on the power play and Vernon outshot Trail 32-27. Schamerhorn won his ninth of the season for Vernon while Brett Clark took the loss in net for Trail. The Smoke Eaters play on Wednesday in Penticton against the Vees who are coming off a 4-3 loss to West Kelowna Saturday. The Smokies return to the Cominco Arena Saturday for another tilt against the Vipers at 7:30 p.m. supporters were declaring their team had been robbed, but others were more sanguine.

Stamps celebration breaks trophy FROM PAGE 11 And besides, he added, if Hamilton had played better, that one play wouldn’t have been the difference between winning and losing. Meanwhile, the Stampeders were so excited while celebrating their win on the field, they broke the trophy. “I think I’m the one that did it,” said Calgary linebacker Juwan Simpson. “I don’t know. I grabbed it and was excited, and all of a sudden, it got a little (loose.)

in the city. Even in the past few days, outside of official events such as Saturday’s parade, only the occasional jersey-clad fan walking along a downtown street provided any indication the Grey Cup was imminent. Just four days before the game, organizers had 4,500 tickets that had yet to be sold. Resale websites were advertising tickets for as low as $49, and several sellers hawking seats along the route to the stadium were simply shouting at passersby to make them an offer The CFL said attendance for the game was about 52,000, leaving roughly 1,400 seats empty. The stadium appeared to be mostly full outside of the
far nose-bleed sections, where small blocks of chairs had no one to sit in them. Vancouver last hosted the big game just three years ago, in 2011, when the B.C. Lions played for - and won - the Cup. Tickets that year sold out months in advance. Even without a home team, the stands were boisterous and rowdy, with loud cheers following touchdowns and significant plays on both sides. Still, geography appeared to give Calgary fans an edge, with chants of “Go Stamps Go” occasionally erupting in pockets of red jerseys, sometimes with large Stampeders flags flying overhead.

Early leaders battle for top spot Hall rink advances to provincials
Submitted The Trail Retirees Curling Club renewed rivalries last week and in a battle of the early front runners it was team Ernie Brown taking on team Horan. Brown jumped out to an early 3-0 lead over team Dan Horan, but by the start of the sixth end team Horan had drawn even. Yet, Team Brown took three in the sixth to put the game out of reach. Make the final 7-4 for Brown. In a tale of two halves, it was team Forest Drinnan that dominated the first half, but Team Harvey Handley took the second half, scoring big in three ends to hand Drinnan an 11-5 defeat. Team Jim Stewart started strong against team Brett Rakuson, skipped by third Bob Menin, and led 5-0 after three ends. Team Rakuson closed the gap to 5-4 after five ends, and kept the pressure on team Stewart. Jim Stewart was forced to make clutch shots in ends six, seven and eight, to cement the win 8-5. Team Serge Pasquali
found their range early in the game against team Tom Hall jumping out to a 5-0 lead after two ends. Team Hall scored singles in the next three ends but could not break open a big end, as Team Pasquali hung on for a 9-6 victory. After four ends team Primo Secco lead team Clare Coleman 6-4. Coleman scored singles in the next three ends to take a one point lead after seven. With his last rock, already sitting one, Primo had an open nose hit for three, but a hair on the ice caused a 40-pound rock to veer off course for a 7-7 tie. In a low scoring well curled game it was team Pat Fennell that defeated team Murray Walsh. Despite scoring two in the first end team Walsh was one’ed into submission and run out of rocks in the eighth. Legion Playdowns: Trail retiree Tom Hall skipped his Trail rink comprised of Doug Halladay, lead, Shane Preedy, second, and Joanne Drystek, third, to a win over the Albo rink of Rossland on Saturday at the Rossland Curling Arena to advance to the provincial championship.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK - If it’s anything like last year, television viewers won’t have to look very hard for holiday-themed programming this season. The Nielsen company said that some 875 hours of such shows were on broadcast and cable networks in late 2013. That includes both specials and holiday episodes of regularly-schedules series, the company said. A cable network like the Hallmark Channel, which was the second highest-rated network in prime-time last week, does a good business at the end of the end of each year with its constant stream of holiday movies. Nielsen said that 84 per cent of women and 79 per cent of men said they watched at least a minute of holiday programming last year.

Moviegoers have appetite for ‘Hunger Games’ sequel THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOS ANGELES - Moviegoers wanted another helping of “The Hunger Games.” “The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part One” ruled the Thanksgiving holiday box office for a second weekend in a row with $56.9 million, according to studio estimates Sunday. The total haul for the latest installment of the Lionsgate dystopian series starring Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen stands at $225.7 million domestically and $254.4 million internationally. “Penguins of Madagascar” opened in second place with a chilly $25.8 million. The animated spin-off centres on the penguin characters from DreamWorks Animation’s “Madagascar” franchise. “Penguins” fared better overseas, where the film earned an additional $36 million.

money, and we’ve had many ups and downs financially. We don’t take extravagant vacations, my car is eight years old, and we are paying three college tuitions. My sister is struggling, too, and I would love to help her, but wouldn’t even consider it without talking it over with my husband. I don’t understand how anyone could borrow money with no intention of paying it back. How can Cary sleep at night? Should I call Cary and express my disappointment that he’s taken advantage of his best friend? -- Loser Friends Dear Friends: Your
mobile 11-month-old grandson got out of the house and fell into the koi pond. Instead of planning his first birthday, we are planning his funeral. Please, if you have any type of standing water, put a fence around it. No parent, grandparent or sibling should go through what we are dealing with right now, especially for something so preventable. -- A Grieving Grandmother in Redondo Beach, Calif. Dear Grieving: This is so heartbreaking. Please know that your words of warning will save a life. Little children can drown in very little water, and they do not have the understanding or the physical dexterity to avoid a tragedy. And no matter how closely you watch your child, accidents happen. Readers, whether the children are yours or someone else’s, fence off these areas or keep
them behind lock and key so they are safe for everyone. Our deepest condolences to your family. Dear Annie: I read of so many happy reunions with birth parents, but I certainly did not have one. I found my birth
mother when I was 35. I discovered a halfbrother who didn’t know about me and resented me a great deal. We have no contact. My birth mother lied to me with three different stories about why I was adopted. She stayed with me for a
week, demanded all of my time and expected to hug me constantly. I did not care for her “concern” after 35 years. She visited twice more and nothing improved. I eventually cut off all correspondence with her. -- Iowa

problem isn’t Cary. It’s a husband who thinks he should be making major financial choices without consulting his life partner. He didn’t want to get into a disagreement with you, so he made a unilateral decision. It’s also possible he believes that if the money comes from his salary, it’s his to do with as he chooses. For minor purchases, that’s fine, but $25,000 could put a dent in his family’s living situation and affects all of you. You need to discuss this with him, calmly, and explain why his actions were both hurtful and disrespectful. If he cannot understand your position, ask him to come with you to see a counselor who can mediate. We wouldn’t want this to happen again.

Dear Annie: Five years ago, my husband’s best friend, “Cary,” was in financial trouble and asked my husband for a loan, which he sent. I only found out about it when the bank sent a receipt to our house. It was for $25,000. I nearly fell over. I questioned my husband, and he said our loan kept Cary out of bankruptcy, so I dropped the subject. Last year, Cary told my husband he still wasn’t able to pay back any of the money, and my generous husband said he’d forgive the loan altogether. I found out about this when we planned a trip to Cary’s area. I told my husband I didn’t want to visit Cary because he’d made no attempt to pay back any of the loan, and that’s when my husband dropped the bombshell. I am angry that my husband didn’t discuss either of these decisions with me. He has worked hard for his

If you give things some thought, you can come up with a better way of doing something. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) A candid discussion with a friend, spouse or partner could be worthwhile today.

And it’s also possible to think of ways to improve your health. Bonus! CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) You might see more-
effective ways of dealing with children today. This is always good to know. And remember: Criticism does much, but encouragement does more.
