Quote of the Week: Computers can figure out all kinds of problems, except the things in the world that just don’t add up. – James Magary Joke of the Week: While working at a pizza parlor I observed a man ordering a small pizza to go. He appeared to be alone and the cook asked him if he would like it cut into 4 pieces or 6. He thought about it for some time then said ‘Just cut it into 4 pieces; I don’t think I’m hungry enough to eat 6 pieces.

Victoria. According to Alblas, the Boundary is the only area in B.C. that does not charge this two per cent. She said that to date her focus has been on the hotels and motels, but she will be meeting with other businesses such as Deadwood Junction and the Motherlode. “I will give you a complete report on Greenwood,” she promised, “but the report I am giving to you today is the Boundarywide report.” She estimates between $30,000 and $40,000 in new revenue might come in from the tax. Seventy per cent of the tax would be directed to marketing the region with the purpose of increasing bed stays; with the remaining 30 per cent used for ad-

ministration. She asked the city to encourage local hotels and motels to sign on. Accommodators from across the Boundary have been invited to a meeting on Feb. 3 to discuss ideas about what other destination marketing organizations have done in their communities. Alblas said presenters from other destination marketing organizations (DMOs) would be on hand. She hopes to form a DMO from the leaders at the Feb. 3 meeting to move the application process forward. After that it could take up to a year for approval from the province.

A DIVISION OF BLACK PRESS – PRINTED EVERY THURSDAY. Mailing address: Box 99, Greenwood, B.C. V0H 1J0 Street address: 263 South Copper Street, Greenwood, B.C.

Talk about a historical document Greenwood is very much a heritage community. The downtown stroll is filled with tourists stopping to take pictures of the lovely buildings. Some of those building go back to the 1890s. Greenwood is a heritage community in another respect as well. The city has not reviewed their Official Community Plan since 1996. Now that’s a historical document! Provincial law allows municipalities to adopt an Official Community Plan (OCP). While OCPs do not require the council or board to proceed with any project contained in the plan, all bylaws or works undertaken by local government must be consistent with the plan. So it acts as a guidepost for the general direction of the community, providing a list of purposes and goals to work towards. Public input during an OCP review gives residents a chance to weigh in too. The RDKB planning department has offered to put this project on their work schedule. By using regional district staff it will cost about $40,000 spread over two years; far less than if a private consultant were hired. Council was asked on Monday night to commit to the regional district offer so that folks in the Trail office can set their own budget and work plan for the year. Money came up as the stumbling block, and Greenwood is set to decide during budget discussions beginning later this month whether to go forward with a review of their OCP. There are young couples raising families in the city who have never in their adult lives had an opportunity to provide input into this document, which should form part of the foundation that a strong and vibrant municipal democracy is built upon. We are not sure what the best-before date is on an OCP, but 19 years might be a stretch.

Dispensary asks for your support Editor, The Times: The Kootenay’s Medicine Tree started quietly and professionally providing access to medical cannabis products in August in our new location on 68 Avenue. We have applied for and been issued a business license by the City of Grand Forks and currently operate in the legal “grey-area” which amounts to favourable court decisions and police tolerance that has allowed dispensaries like ours to operate elsewhere in B.C. An applicant for our services must have been diagnosed with a medical condition by a physician or nurse practitioner and have medical records to substantiate the diagnosis before membership in our dispensary is issued and careful, monitored access to medical cannabis products is granted. All was going well as time passed, our lab tested/produced products were helping local cancer patients manage symptoms and fight back against their tumours, children with debilitating forms of epilepsy reduce their seizures (drastically in some cases), chronic pain patients addicted to opiates reduce and

cease use of opiates, seniors gain sleep and pain relief by leaving toxic pharma meds behind for cannabis, the list is long in such a short time…four months. And then we were visited by plainclothes RCMP constables, who were in the very awkward position of informing us that if we did not cease our work without a license from Health Canada’s new commercial system, because of only two complaints filed from the community, they would be forced into an enforcement action against our dispensary (arrests, warrant, seizure of evidence, doors locked). We do not blame the RCMP, they are in a hard position where they must enforce a bad law. Because companies licensed under Health Canada’s MMPR regulations are prohibited from selling cannabis capsules, other edibles, oils, creams or suppositories and because the vast majority of our membership requires non-smokable cannabis products, we cannot apply for this license and cut off these very vulnerable people. Our non-smokable products are produced by private B.C. companies and are lab tested; we are able to provide safe, standardized products of

known potency, achieving reliability in dosing—a first for local medical cannabis patients. We are asking area residents to please show your support for local access to safe, standardized medical cannabis options for the chronically and terminally ill who require this medicine, by writing to Mayor Konrad, Grand Forks city council, and local media like the Grand Forks Gazette and providing us with a copy. We hope that with enough public support the RCMP can show our dispensary tolerance, like that extended to the five dispensaries in Vernon, soon to be three in Kelowna, and one in Nelson. To those who oppose what we are doing, please take the time to either come down and talk to us and/or conduct even brief research into the human body’s endo-cannabinoid system and the vast medical uses of cannabinoids like CBD and THC. When you watch a child’s daily seizures go from 100 a day to nearly zero after the administration of a cannabis concentrate product, you will see why local access to these cannabis derivative products is essential. Jim Leslie, Marvin Wyers, Wendy Brisco, The Kootenay’s Medicine Tree Heritage Credit Union Grand Forks employees Donna Durban (left) and Julie Hallstrom watch as Kim Lindseth and Lisa Baia of the Boundary District Curling Club receive a cheque for $2,500 from credit union director Darla Ashton at the West Boundary branch in Greenwood.

Ice Fishing Derby February Family Day Weekend February 7, 8 and 9

Credit Union donates to club In early December, the Boundary District Curling Rink season was brought to an abrupt halt when the ice melted after the ice plant that had served the club since 1956 rusted so badly it began to leak. Club members voted unanimously to save the curling rink as well as what remains in the 2015 season. Equipment was located in Grand Forks that was virtually new. The rink there had stored it because it was too small to cool their four sheets, but it would be perfect for the two sheets in Mid-

way. The Heritage Credit Union came through with a cheque for $2,500 from their Community Investment Fund to help cover the costs. Credit union director Darla Ashton presented the cheque last week at the West Boundary branch in Greenwood. The new equipment and electrical upgrades brings the Boundary District Curling Club up to date with an environmentally-friendly ice plant in Midway.
