Catchment area change finds opposition Kevin Parnell The Central Okanagan school board is moving forward with a recommendation to change the catchment area for the three elementary schools in Lake Country, despite some strong words from the school board chair and two other school trustees who say the public consultation process has failed. Close to 80 people packed into a school board committee meeting on Wednesday in Kelowna, where the district’s planning and facilities committee voted to send a recommendation for changing Lake Country catchment areas to the regular school board meeting Feb. 11 for a decision. The committee voted 2-1 to send the recommendation to the board meeting despite the objections of school board chair Moyra Baxter. “I think we made a mistake,” said Baxter. “We have used a process that is flawed. I think what we should have

Lake Country is a great community and it’s terrible that we have parts of the community pitted against each other.”

In what was an emotional meeting, a few parents and community members were even brought to tears when trying to express themselves. A large group of parents from the Lakes Subdivision in Lake

Country showed up at the meeting to demand that their children not be sent to Oyama Traditional School instead of their current catchment area, Davidson Road Elementary. Of the three Lake Country elementary

schools, Davidson Road is above capacity while Peter Greer and the Oyama Traditional are both currently under capacity. Parent after parent from The Lakes stood up to voice opposition to their children traveling

to Oyama for elementary school. They submitted a petition of 270 signatures to the committee and broke out in applause when it appeared their kids would not be on the table to be moved. “Nobody wants to leave Davidson, flat

out,” said Lake Country school trustee Deb Butler. “Everyone wants to be there from that area but it comes down to how do we do the best thing for all three elementary schools in Lake Country? “I think we need to look a little deeper at it. I think (trustees) should have been more involved in the process. I think we could have done things different so that we got community consultation in a different way.” While all three elementary schools met with district officials in public consultations, the exact recommendation of the catchment area change only came to light last week, sparking the uprising from people living in the Lakes Subdivision. With many saying they wouldn’t send their kids to Oyama, longtime Oyama resident Allan Gatzke made an emotional plea. “Five generations of my family went to school in Oyama,” said Gatzke, holding back tears. “We hear concern about someone from the

Lake Country school trustee Deb Butler says she hasn’t decided whether she will vote on a final recommendation to change the catchment areas for Lake Country’s three elementary schools or to recuse herself from the discussion entirely. Butler, in her second term on school board, came under fire from residents living in one Lake Country neighbourhood last week when she came to the defense of Oyama Traditional School, saying the school could be in danger of closing long term if a better solution can’t be

Butler, who is not a member of the committee, attended the meeting and provided a written statement explaining her thoughts on the issues. “What I’m happy about is that people showed up and got to have their say because that’s what I expected to happen (at the earlier public consultation),” she said. “But the community didn’t have the information available to them. We didn’t do a really good job of consultation. We met with the schools to get their suggestions but we didn’t have any kind of proposed plan.”

Butler said she has been accused of a conflict of interest due to the fact she lives in Oyama and admits she may have made a mistake in the way she handled the situation by saying the Oyama school could be in trouble long term if the current recommendation goes ahead. “It’s been pretty tough, I’ve taken a lot of hits, but only from one area of the community,” she said. “Everybody is entitled to their opinion. I think it’s important they have an opinion. In the end all you can do is look at what you did and move forward in a better way.” @KP_media1

Central Okanagan School Board’s planning and facilities committee voted to pass a recommendation from the superintendent of schools, paving the way for a change to Rutland’s grade configuration this fall as opposed to waiting until fall 2016. The move is being made as a way to enhance the falling population of Rutland Senior, according to superintendent Hugh Gloster.

schools. Those middle schools would move to a Grade 6,7, 8 configuration and elementary schools would move to kindergarten to Grade 5. The new configuration is a model the Central Okanagan School District first approved back in 2012, although Rutland is the first area of the Central Okanagan where its schools can make the change. “We’ve had strong support for the concept,”

said Gloster. “The timing is really the issue. There are a number of advantages in a Grade 6 to 8 configuration for middle schools. As well having Grade 9s in a secondary alignment and getting them in there a year ahead of provincial exams is also a positive.” A final vote on the Rutland grade configuration will be held at the school board’s regular meeting on Jan. 28. —Kevin Parnell

“There has been a gradual and continuous decline in the student population at Rutland Senior,” said Gloster. “We are anticipating a further loss of 1,100 students by 2020. The implications for future education in Rutland are quite profound if we don’t look at doing something.” The changes to the grade configuration would see Grade 9 students in Rutland attend RSS as opposed to the various middle

strong community, has value that is sometimes missed when you are just talking logistics. (To the committee) I encourage you to consider the viability of that community out there.” As school board chair, Baxter asked for the entire process to be delayed to allow trustees to properly study the information before making a decision. Fellow trustee and committee chair Julia Fraser agreed. “We’ve only had six days to really think about the information,” said Fraser. “The timing of the municipal election distracted us. “That was time we should have been focusing our attention on this. I’d like to suggest we defer for two weeks to give trustees the needed time to go over all the information and make an informed decision.” In the end the pleas from Baxter and Fraser, a voting member of the committee, were ignored by the other two committee voting members, trustees Rolli Cacchioni and Chris Gorman, who voted in favour of the

recommendation. It will next be dealt with at the regular school board meeting Feb. 11. If passed, the recommendation would send students from Woodsdale Road to Oyama with kids from parts of the southwest area of Lake Country to Peter Greer. Students in The Lakes would remain in the Davidson Road catchment area. @KP_media1

Treatment for Chronic Foot Pain Available in Kelowna

P

ain in the feet is one of the most debilitating injuries we can be plagued with; it is felt in the arch of the foot (Plantar Fasciitis), the heel (Plantar Fasciitis or heel spur) or at the back of the ankle (Achilles Tendonitis). Unfortunately, we continuously use our feet, which makes healing from related injuries very difficult.

success, it gives up and healing stops. Shockwave Therapy breaks up scar tissue, restoring the function of the muscle and promoting new blood vessel growth, stimulating faster healing. In fact, in a double blind study published in Journal of the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society, 90%of patients suffering from heel and arch pain showed significant improvements with Shockwave. Furthermore, Shockwave Therapy (developed to break up kidney stones) has success rates of between 77%-91% in the treatment of other soft tissue conditions. Results are often experienced within a couple of visits and the treatment is covered by many insurance companies.

DR. RYAN HARRIS Glenmore Chiropractic

Plantar Fasciitis is an overuse injury affecting the fibrous tissue that forms the arch. Heel spurs can form when the fascia tears at the heel attachment and results in pain in the center of the heel. Achilles Tendonitis is irritation of the Achilles where the calf muscle meets the heel and can result in pain in the calf, the Achilles, or the back of the heel. The inflammation from overuse leads to pain as well as deposits of scar tissue, further inflaming the area each time the Achilles or plantar fascia are used. After the body has tried for weeks or months to heal the injury with no

Public Open House - January 28 Updating UBC’s Okanagan Master Plan

news _____________________________________

Offering an answer for homelessness Former Kelowna youth pastor Bill Hebner is building shipping container houses around the world to change the lives of people in need. Starting 20 years ago in 1993, 47 teenagers from the Okanagan ventured into Tacate, Mexico, on the first trip to build two wood frame houses. Hebner said the house was not much more than a garden shed with attitude, but he was

amazed that the 11’ x 22’ wooden buildings were virtually palatial compared to the homeless state the recipients were living in prior to the arrival of his teenage team. Watching the tears of joy from the locals receiving these simple gifts on that trip, Hebner was touched and started to realize how a large majority of humanity actually lives this way. “Billions of people

Container homes for village in Kenya. are exposed to the raw elements of weather and live in fear for their own safety and security night after night,” he said. What seemed like a bottomless gauntlet of need eventually led Hebner to arrive at his fast-food service style approach to end world homelessness—container houses. They were fast to build, could be reproduced by low or unskilled people, quality of the build was consistent, safe and securable; and it was scalable in time and materials to achieve something that can make a global difference. In October 2010, Hebner led a team of five unskilled workers and a welder on a mission to build a simple reproducible three bedroom bungalow prototype using two discarded cube containers with those four challenges in his mind. In under a week, the project was completed, a fully insulated home has now stood in the tortuous African sun for five years with little to no wear or deterioration. “We were shocked at how fast, and at how little skill or energy this thing took to construct,” Hebner said. Costing just under

$10,000 in 2014 prices, the container house included a kitchen and a full bathroom, leaving Hebner to believe he had found a solution that works for everyone and changes the lives of people in need. Hebner has since taken the simple lessons learned from this house to then build nurseries, schools and even more homes for the poor, raising over $2,500,000 through private fundraising to build these structures over the past 20 years. “The exciting thing is that shipping containers are now becoming an accepted building material with local authorities in western cultures and throughout the developing world. It is now so much easier to get the word out as building houses out of shipping containers is no longer a radical idea,” Hebner said. Hebner has literally written the book on how to build a practical shipping container house, in the hope that anyone can follow the step-bystep guide to building a house for themselves. For more information about Hebner’s container house campaign, check out the website www. youthmissionproject.org. uk.

Robbery leads to vehicle pursuit

BC Parks camping fees see $2/night increase

A 40-year-old New Westminster man is facing potential charges after a Lake Country convenience store was robbed at gun point early Wednesday morning. On Jan. 21 at 2:47 a.m., Lake Country RCMP responded to an armed robbery at the 7-Eleven store located at 9724 Highway 97. A lone masked man had reportedly entered the store brandishing a rifle and demanded cash, lottery tickets and cigarettes. The suspect fled in a vehicle with an undisclosed amount of cash and stolen goods. Police say no one was injured during the incident. A dark-coloured Pontiac G6 was spotted by police driving fast, north on Glenmore Road a short time later and police officers chased the car. According to the RCMP, the car continued heading north, eventually making it to Pelmewash Parkway, with officers in close pursuit. Just south of Oyama, when the suspect attempted to make a U-turn and had slowed significantly, the chasing officers forced his vehicle into a ditch. The driver, a suspect in the convenience store robbery, was taken into custody without incident . Police recovered stolen cash and property at the scene. The suspect is facing potential armed robbery, disguise with intent, flight from police, obstruction and resisting arrest charges. He was expected to appear in court on Wednesday. r

The provincial government is raising the fees this year for camping at B.C. provincial parks. The government says the fee increase, which will be $2 a night effective March 15, is necessary to maintain high service levels in B.C. provincial parks for an increasing number of visitors. This increase comes after years of investment delivering capital projects aimed at attracting young families, offering new recreation opportunities and increasing attendance in provincial parks. Over the past five years, BC Parks has invested approximately $60 million in park facilities, and has approximately $700 million of investment in infrastructure that requires maintenance. Fee increases are

It was very loud and very clear—a number of local veterans are not impressed with the way the federal government has handled veterans’ affairs. And they were not shy about voicing that opinion to Alberta MP and member of the parliamentary Standing Committee on Veteran’s Affairs Laurie Hawn, who came to Kelowna Tuesday to give a personal

explanation of where Ottawa is on reforming its services and programs for vets and to hear directly from the veterans themselves. “Why didn’t you tell us this a long time ago?” shouted one man in response to Hawn’s presentation which outlined numerous services available to veterans. His presentation made it clear veterans are not forced to take a lump sum payout and then be left to fend for themselves.

But that’s not how many veterans see it. “This is a work in progress,” said Hawn, referring to the standing committee’s recent report and 14 recommendations to improve what has become known as the “New Veterans’ Charter.” But even though he conceded more needs to be done and the federal government has been a “crappy communicator,” when it comes to explaining what is available for veterans, several in the audience of

Veterans shout their dismay at federal MP

Edmonton Centre MP Laurie Hawn, flanked by area MPs Ron Cannan and Dan Albas (right) came to Kelowna Tuesday to talk about veterans’ affairs. about 30 people gathered at the Royal Canadian Legion hall in Kelowna were clearly angry. Hawn, who said he came here on his own and not as a government representative, said while other stops across the country have also featured upset veterans, the Kelowna meeting was “a bit crankier,” which he said he understood. For many veterans there is a feeling Ottawa is abrogating its responsibility to the men

and women who have served in Canada’s Armed Forces, an obligation that the courts are currently being asked to rule on. While Hawn said the obligation is a moral one that all Canadian governments have taken very seriously, it is not a legal one specified in Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms. At the meeting, Hawn,a former fighter pilot in Canada’s Air Force, was directly challenged by a disabled

veteran who questioned Hawn’s financial figure for vets. Patrick Wilkins served two tours of duty in Bosnia and one tour in Afghanistan before leaving the Air Force. He said he is considered 93 per cent disabled and is unemployable because of his post-traumatic stress disorder. But because he is not missing limbs, he is not eligible to receive the maximum disability amount available. Wilkins said he received a lump sum of $193,700

when he left the military in 2007 after 20 years of service. He was 37 at the time and said his wife has had to look after him and provide the family income. That strain has now taken a toll on her mental health and, as a result, she has lost her job. “You say ‘this is what we’re doing for you, this is all the money we’re giving these people,’” Wilkins told Hawn. “I’m one of those people and I’m not receiving that.” He asked when would he get what the MP said was available—when he lost his house or worse “after I’ve committed suicide?” Other, older veterans from earlier wars were equally upset, particularly by a government decision to close the Kelowna Veteran’s Affairs office, part of a cost-saving measure that targeted eight “lightly used” offices across Canada. Hawn said there is still a specially trained Veteran’s Affairs official at the Kelowna Service Canada office, as well as a support worker available through the Canadian Legion. Part of the problem, said Hawn, has been convincing Veteran’s Affairs Canada to help injured veterans how to show their injury was caused by their military service, something that’s required in some cases well after they’ve left the military. Hawn said some of the standing committee’s recommendations are aimed at changing that, including a call to make sure an injured veteran is not released from medical care until he or she is in stable condition, a case manager is in place and benefits have been adjudicated. He told the veterans while successive Canadian governments of all political stripes have genuinely tried to help veterans, the new changes cannot all be put in place “overnight.” Hawn is confident new Veteran’s Affairs Minister Erin O’Toole, and recently named deputy minister Walt Natynczyk, a former chief of the defence staff, are the right men to make the changes happen. The changes are a “work in progress,” and may never be finished because of the “moving goalposts” that is the changing face of Canada’s veterans.

news _____________________________________________________________________ LIVING WITH DEMENTIAS

Alzheimer Awareness Month puts focus on ‘the 72%’–women Nearly three-quarters of Canadians living with Alzheimer’s disease are women. It’s an eye-opening statistic, but it’s not news to the many Kelowna families whose lives have been altered by the dementia journey, many of whom will participate at the Investors Group Walk for Memories taking place in Kelowna on Sunday, Jan. 25., starting at 11 a.m. from Kelowna Secondary School, 1079 Raymer Ave. “Women represent 72 per cent of Canadians living with Alzheimer’s disease,” said Carly Gronlund, the Alzheimer Society of B.C.’s Support & Education Coordinator for Kelowna and the North & Central Okanagan. “They could be your mothers, wives, sisters, grandmothers or friends.” That’s why the society’s annual Alzheimer

Awareness Month campaign in January has adopted the theme The 72%. It aims to inform women in their 40s and older about the warning signs of Alzheimer’s and other dementias, brain health and how the programs and services of the non-profit Alzheimer Society of B.C. can help. More women than men are living with Alzheimer’s disease because they live longer and age is a significant risk factor, Gronlund said. The risk of dementia doubles every five years after age 65. Women also account for 70 per cent of family caregivers. So what can Kelowna residents do? “Get walking,” Gronlund said. On Sunday, the Investors Group Walk for Memories will raise funds for research and programs for the more than 70,000 people in B.C. who face dementia.

The project funding for WEC will provide more opportunities for women from all regions of the province to identify ways in which government, corporations and individuals can reach these goals.

Where is evidence wolves are killing off the caribou

Hunter can’t get license to restock family’s freezer

Open letter to Steve Thompson, MLA Kelowna-Mission, Minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations: I am very concerned about your Ministry’s announcement that there will be an aerial kill of wolves in B.C. It astounds me that you would resort to such archaic methods of control to preserve dwindling stocks of caribou. I read the report (in full, I might add) on the management of wolves in our province. While there was much information on grey wolves, there was little on the caribou that your ministry is trying to protect. Where is the evidence that caribou declines are due to wolf kill? WWF (World Wildlife Fund) reports on a ban by the federal government on caribou hunting on Baffin Island. It is reported that the decline in caribou populations is due to a natural cycle and climate change, indicating that there is not enough lichen for the caribou to eat. What studies have there been on caribou populations in this province showing what the caribou are eating and is that affecting the dwindling numbers? In other words, is there proof that the wolves are causing the decline in caribou numbers or is it the habitat itself? If the decline in numbers is honestly due to wolf kill, why kill the wolves when there are more humane and less draconian methods of wolf management such as relocating the wolves to other areas in B.C. such as northeastern B.C., where numbers of wolves are much less? Or introducing other ungulate populations? Or managing food resources and the ecosystem for the caribou? An aerial cull will result in pack dynamics being upset and will lead to weaker animals. How will a cull affect the ecosystem (as per Yellowstone Park)? Surely all animals should be protected in our country, and natural selection should be given more credence. Janice Sich, Kelowna

To the editor: Re: New B.C. wildlife allocation policy is unfair to resident hunters. I have been a hunter in B.C. since the early 1970s and almost every year have been able to harvest a moose or deer or elk or bear to feed my family. The past two years I have not been successful, not from lack of effort but because B.C. wildlife populations are decreasing, i.e. the pie is getting smaller. Now we hear that a new Allocation Policy will give a larger share of the pie to the guide outfitters—this change is completely unacceptable. At my age my chances of ever again getting a moose, Roosevelt elk or sheep draw are now probably zero. Reading the explanation for these changes on the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations website indicates the changes are to financially bolster the guide outfitting industry, nothing to do with an all-stakeholder agreement or making sure a public resource is first available to B.C. residents, after conservation and First

Nations. Since when does the government get involved in guaranteeing a business success? I owned two small businesses during my working career and at no time did the government provide me with additional product that I could sell at a profit or do anything else to ensure my success. Why do the guide outfitters deserve special treatment? Is the government now going to guarantee success to all businesses? I understood that after years of discussion all parties had agreed in 2007 to a 90 per cent resident/10 per cent guide outfitter split on ungulates and a 80/20 split on sheep and goats. Such a split would be much more generous to the guide outfitters than most jurisdictions in North America and it should have been put into legislation in 2007. The 90/10 and 80/20 splits should be policy and should be put into legislation so that all stakeholders can get back to supporting healthy wildlife populations. Dave Hodgkinson, Kelowna

Two-tier electricity rate To the editor: As an electrical engineer with over 20 years of experience I feel compelled to speak up regarding the two-tier residential electricity rate that has been mandated by the BC Utilities Commission (BCUC). It is not only that my own electricity bills are at an absurd level—my Fortis bill for the last two months was $1,700—but it is also the misinformation being spread by the BCUC and the unwillingness of the Liberal government to address the issue that require comment. The BCUC labels the rate a “Residential Conservation Rate,” which is a transparent attempt to obscure the truth. It is a fixed rate plus a variable rate penalty that is levied beyond 1,600 KWh of usage. The penalty rises (very rapidly at first) as you use more electricity, eventually exceeding an astonishing 30 per cent. Such rate structures are inherently unfair because they are based on the plainly false assumption that all electricity customers are identical. If you have no alternative but to heat your house using electricity as I do, then you are severely penalized by the rate structure. If you have more children than another household and hence use more electricity, you too are penalized and will pay disproportionally higher rates than those with fewer children. Should you happen to have a slightly larger house than your neighbour then you will also face higher per KWh rates. To understand the absurdity of what the BCUC has done, imagine visiting your local hardware store to buy bolts for a deck. On offer are single bolts for $0.10 per bolt, or a box of 100 bolts for $0.15 per bolt. In other words, if you buy the bolts in bulk you pay more per bolt than buying them individually. Any reasonable person would find such a pricing scheme ridiculous, yet that in a nutshell is what the BCUC has imposed on electricity customers. Such pricing schemes can only be incubated and survive in the make believe land of government imposed regulation. I have contacted the BCUC on several occasions regarding this matter and it is clear they have no serious intention of addressing it. They argue that they are following a government mandate, yet my local MLA’s office has told me that my only recourse is

to keep pressuring the BCUC. It is an odd suggestion given that the BCUC is governed by legislation which the Liberal majority government could swiftly change if they so wished. Something does not add up in these finger-pointing responses, and this has understandably added to the frustration felt by many electricity customers. It is not even clear if the two-tier rate complies with the existing legislation under which the BCUC must operate. Space does not permit me to say everything that needs to be said on this subject; such an egregious abuse of authority by a regulating body requires several pages to fully dissect. Energy rebates and other sweeteners cannot mask the underlying unfairness of the pricing scheme, and the fact that the BCUC unscrupulously mislabels what they have done should concern everyone. One thing is clear: Residents of British Columbia need to voice their concerns more loudly if anything is to change. Never forget, the BCUC and the government work for us, not the other way around.

Ready to step out and go ‘dancing with the stars’ If it’s true that variety is the spice of life, there is no shortage of that for the seventh annual Swinging with the Stars. Jive, tango, moderncountry, disco, contemporary and bollywood local ‘stars’ have been in full rehearsal at Kelowna dance studios since November.

Swinging with the Stars, presented this year by Bayshore Home Health, Coldwell Banker Horizon Realty Jane Hoffman Group & Global Okanagan, takes place March 7 at the Delta Grand Okanagan Resort. The event, based on the popular television show “Dancing with the

Stars,” pairs professional dance instructors with local ‘stars’ to support the Central Okanagan Hospice Association. “We had no idea this event would have such longevity,” said Swinging with the Stars coordinator Jan Woolsey. “We are heading into our seventh year and have

dancing stars lined up for 2016. Last year, we shook things up by including dance performances outside the ballroom genre. We are doing the same this year, including a bollywood ensemble of seven women.” Local dancing participants this year ready to ‘strut their

stuff’ on the dance floor include Val Cocar, certified dental assistant, Lakeshore Dental Center; Bill Mulgrew, orthodonist, Okanagan Orthodonists; Gillianne Richards, freelance media artist and Quinn Best, owner, The Habitat Live Music Venue; Melissa Schmidt, owner Cream Hair &

Makeup Lounges and Lonni Van Diest, executive general manager, Moxies Grill & Bar; and Carey Small, owner, Smalls Tile and Flooring. The Bollywood ensemble includes Anita Clegg, realtor, Re-Max/Westside; Brenda Valnicek, artist; Laurie Koss, artist and yoga instructor, Tandava

Studio; Louise Koch, CIBC financial advisor; Rose Sexsmith, owner, Rose’s Pub and Hanna’s Grill; and Jan Woolsey, Swinging with the Stars coordinator. Tickets for the event are available at the COHA office, 104-1456 St. Paul St. or by calling 250-7635511.

Staying on the good side of karma

We can help with your New Year’s Resolution! Join us every Thursday in January for weekly events!

An Evening of Appreciation for

Walter Gray, Andre Blanleil, & Robert Hobson

I don’t like TV. As a matter of Ask Dr. Thiel fact, I really don’t like it at all. I find it to be a MARKUS distraction from THIEL what is otherwise a remarkable experience—life. It tends to numb the masses. I feel that if Karl Marx were alive today it would be TV that he would describe as the ‘opiate of the masses.’ Having said that, I will admit that I do watch TV from time to time. My favourite show is “My name is Earl.” At risk of sounding like a redneck (I realize it may already be too late), I have to say that the program serves the public with what is an excellent message, one that is rooted in morality and accountability: be careful what you plant, because it will grow up on you some day. “My name is Earl” is a show simply about the immutable law of karma. Karma can be described as the total effect of a person’s actions and conduct during the successive phases of the person’s existence, regarded as determining the person’s destiny. I other words, if you do something kind or cruel to someone

else it will come back on you tenfold. For those of you who do not watch the show, I will bring you up to speed… reader’s digest

version. There is this redneck by the name of Earl. He has lead a pretty checkered life and in doing so, he has hurt a lot of people. This would be considered the actions of ‘bad karma.’ One day he has an epiphany, realizes how much he has hurt others and creates a list of all the things he has done wrong. One by one, he strikes them off his list by correcting the wrongful action of his past. In doing so, he is removing the bad karma and replacing it with good karma, simply by the actions he chooses. The show is unusual in the sense that it is rooted in moral accountability for ones actions. This is no revolutionary idea, in the Bible it talks about how we will reap what we sow, in the Hindu and Buddhist religions, the matter of karma is the foundation in much of their motivations. We have all seen examples of karma. The payback can be good or

bad, depending on your actions. I remember one time when I was 12 years old, I found a wallet with $1,200 in it. I, like any other kid thought ‘cool, $1,200 dollars for me’…for about 10 seconds. I called the man who owned the wallet and he picked up his wallet and his $1,200 dollars. He left me with $1,000 dollars, as a reward. Good karma, I thought. My mom would not let me keep it. You can argue it all you want, you can discount it and rationalize it as much as you want, but karma, or whatever you may call it, is out there and it is ever watching. No one else needs to be in the room to see it. I know for a fact that if you do something kind, anonymously and expecting nothing in return, karma will be kind to you in ways you cannot imagine. If you are knowingly malicious and deceitful towards someone, if you are dishonest in business or in your relationship, get ready for a karma audit. Sometimes the pay out is immediate, sometimes it takes a bit longer, but sooner or later, the circle will be complete.

Placing a value on accident injuries disrupting your life What is my ICBC claim worth? How long will it take to settle my claim? I am asked these

questions all the time. Your ICBC adjuster has made an offer that could settle the claim

immediately. To make a decision, you need to know how close the offer is to fair and how long it

will take to achieve that fair compensation if you choose to reject it and hire a lawyer. When you consider the one-third fees you will pay and the time it takes to get to a fair result, you might as well settle directly with ICBC if I tell you that your claim is worth anything close to what the ICBC adjuster is offering. I am usually asked those questions at a time when there is ongoing pain, stiffness and other symptoms, and therapy is ongoing. There might or might not have been time missed from work. You have had a rough few months since the crash, but that’s water under the bridge. If ICBC is prepared to reimburse your income loss and expenses and pay you a few thousand dollars on top of that, you don’t want to be greedy. It turns out that a few thousand dollars might well be fair financial compensation for crash injury symptoms that completely resolve within a few months.

Achieving Justice PAUL HERGOTT That “few months” time frame is critical, though. Let’s say I offer you $5,500 to participate in a study that requires you to have a toothache for the next three months, what would you say? Many people work out of town, enduring harsh working conditions to make extra money. If you look at enduring a toothache like enduring out-of-town, harsh working conditions, that offer might sound attractive to you. Turn that “few months” into a “few years” though. You’d have to be a drug addict, desperate for your next fix, in order to accept $5,500 in exchange for agreeing to endure a toothache that lasts a few years. With car crash symptoms, you can

automatically turn a “few years” into “the rest of your life.” If you are continuing to experience crash related symptoms two or three years after a collision, the medical science is that you are unlikely ever to fully recover. Your symptoms don’t look like much to the outside world; no more than a toothache would. A toothache, though, aches away regardless of what you do. Unlike a toothache, injuries to your neck and back interfere with your ability to do some of the things you used to be able to do and get worse when you participate in activities you used to enjoy. If you are fortunate enough that your symptoms go on to 100 per cent, completely resolve within a few months of the crash, then that few thousand dollars is within a close enough range of fair that it is unlikely to be worthwhile to get a lawyer involved. If not, and you end up with anything of an ongoing “toothache,” the scale of fair compensation (not including income loss and expenses) starts at a

few “tens of thousands” of dollars, the upper end depending on how significant the ongoing symptoms are and how much of an impact those symptoms will have on your life on an ongoing, chronic basis. I doubt there is anyone besides a strung out drug addict who would accept $50,000, $80,000 or event even $150,000 to participate in a study that would require you to endure life-long, chronic, symptoms, however minor they seem to those around you, even if you were able to continue working and continue to participate in most of the activities you enjoy. Will ICBC offer compensation anywhere near those ranges to an unrepresented injury victim? I’ve been in this business for20 years and I’ve never heard of it. Instead, they seem to hold onto their “few thousand dollars” range regardless of the prospect of a lifetime of chronic symptoms, which is why there is more than enough work for personal injury lawyers. Paul Hergott is a West Kelowna lawyer specializing in personal injury cases. paul@hlaw.ca

Film’s focus on aboriginal integration in Australia The Kelowna chapter of Amnesty International will present the film, Rabbit-Proof Fence, on Friday, Jan. 30, at the Okanagan College theatre, 7:30 p.m. The documentary is about the true story of Molly Craig, a young aboriginal Australian girl who, in 1931, led her younger sister and cousin in an escape from a government camp, set up as part of an official Australian government policy to train them as domestic servants and integrate them into white society. They escape as the rain comes that can cover their tracks. With grit and determination Molly guides the girls on a journey, one step ahead of the authorities, over Australia’s outback in search of one of the long rabbit-proof fences built in western Australia to prevent rabbits from destroying crops and pasture They then follow the fence toward their home, a 1,500-mile journey. Admission to the film is by donation. For more information, call 250-769-4740.

WOMEN’S SHELTER

Thanks in part to a generous grant from the Central Okanagan Foundation, the Kelowna Women’s Shelter’s Inside/ Out Violence Prevention Program for Youth now has a larger and more easily accessible learning centre. Until now, Inside/ Out worked out of a cramped, improperlyequipped space within the Kelowna Women’s Shelter facility, a situation which increased traffic through the building, and created disruption and a lack of privacy for Shelter residents and clients. The $6,500 grant

from Central Okanagan Foundation will allow the program to be relocated to a larger, better equipped and more accessible space. “The move to the new learning centre will make it easier to get the antiviolence message to more young people, and stop the cycle of abuse before it starts,” said Inside/ Out program coordinator Crystal Kneller. “It is wonderful to see the Central Okanagan Foundation shares our commitment to creating a future without violence and abuse, and we’re so grateful for the support.”

First launched as a pilot project in 1988, Inside/ Out is an interactive, community based program for students in kindergarten through Grade 12. The program is designed to reduce the risk of young people becoming involved in unhealthy relationships. Last year, 400 students in 10 local schools participated in Inside/ Out, which focuses on self-esteem, healthy relationships and dealing with conflict. The program is delivered by practicum students from UBC-

news _____________________________________________________________________ LIVING HEALTHY

Drinking lots of water encouraged How are your New Year’s resolutions coming along? I love to recycle, so I’m recycling last year’s pledge to continue exploring wonderfully delicious ways to eat and live abundantly, vibrantly and healthy. In my previous column, I introduced you to the NEW START acronym for healthy living. I unpacked the “N” for nutrition and the “E” for exercise. Have you started any new eating and exercise habits for 2015 yet? There’s no reason you can’t start today to make healthy changes for yourself and your family. Now, let me unpack the next two letters of this acronym. “W” is for water. Adam’s ale, H2O, whatever you want to call it, are you drinking six to 10 cups daily of this clear, absolutely necessary liquid?

Eating Right BEVERLEY EDWARDSHAINES Most people are walking around dehydrated without realizing it. Do you get headaches often? Joints feel stiff? Got scratchy eyes? Feeling tired? Strong-smelling urine? Then, drink more water. Every one of your bodily functions requires water. Drink enough to keep your urine pale. Milk, juice and coffee don’t cut it. Drink water to get maximal benefit. “S” is for sunlight. Not only does the kiss of the sun kickstart vitamin D production, but that giant ball of fiery, glowing gas does so much more for us.

a moderate amount of sun exposure daily can help boost your immune system, lower blood pressure, help heal skin conditions and ease symptoms of depression? As well, sunlight promotes a good night’s sleep by prompting your body to produce melatonin, a sleep hormone, which translates into more z’s. Taking a walk on a sunny day is a great way to combine the “E” and the “S” of NEW START. So, with the aid of four letters thus far— “N,” “E,” “W,” and “S”—we have learned to become more conscious of what we eat; work our bodies daily, preferably out in the sunshine; and guzzle more water. The results will be stunning for you. I’ll discuss the remaining four letters of the acronym NEW START in upcoming columns. ••• Want delicious help improving your lifestyle?

Nepal. In 2005, the couple visited the Okanagan and found it geographically compatible with their native country. After settling here, the couple opened the first Everest restaurant on Lawrence Street in downtown Kelowna. After two years, Ram discovered what he thought to be a better location, 2430 Main Street in Westbank Town Centre where Everest is still located today. The couple have two small children and together manage the restaurant. Ram told me that Everest is doing quite well in the Westbank as people appear to enjoy his food and service. The focus of his marketing promotion is to let Central Okanogan residents know that Everest is alive and well and to share in the Nepalese dining experience. So I encourage all my readers to check this restaurant out. Tell Ram that Joel sent you and share his dream of operating his own restaurant that has become a reality for this wonderful couple.

Chevrolet expands its electrifying portfolio with the Bolt EV Concept. With a range of more than 300 kilometres, this all-electric stylish crossover is aimed for the masses, not just the select few. “While it’s still a concept, pricing for this type of vehicle will be in the $30,000 range. Not cheap, but certainly attainable. It even allows you to use a smartphone to perform as the key fob.” Acura is showing off the return of its simply beautiful NSX sports car to the market. The Porsche-loving Jerry Seinfeld was flown in to add some celebrity power but there was no — because this $150,000-plus super car speaks loudly for itself. It will be powered by a new Honda V6 mated to a ninespeed dual clutch transmission, assisted greatly by three electric motors — one for each of the front wheels and another to add torque while the turbos get up to speed. Interesting that Honda should be getting back into F1 racing; now it features hybrid power plants! Ford is teasing showgoers with a stunning new 600-horsepower Ford GT, which will more than likely have a price sticker similar to that of the NSX. The Infiniti Q60 concept’s premiere appearance was somewhat overshadowed by the aforementioned machines in the media here. However, Alfonso Albaisa, the Infiniti executive director of design, delivered a passionate description of the high-performance sports coupe that will come to market within the next year, with a price tag somewhat lower than the Ford and Acura products.

All that sparkles at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show Detroit, MI – Within moments of pulling out of a parking lot in the 2015 Cadillac CTS 3.6L AWD, its pristine crimson coat was soiled by the elements. And of course, salt, dirt, grime and all that isn’t amazing about winter in Toronto. Nevertheless, its smooth and comfortable ride didn’t disappoint along the arduous and incredibly fourplus-hour drive to Detroit, Michigan for the 2015 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS.) I would soon trade in the

performance sedan that will knock your socks off. CADILLAC CTS-V Arriving late in the summer of 2015, the 2016 Cadillac CTS-V is ready to take on its German competitors (like the BMW M5 and Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG) with a whopping 640 horsepower and 630 lb-ft of torque. The all-new third generation sedan is the most power-endowed product the brand has ever created. But aside from power, you’ll have the luxury of the third generation Magnetic Ride

coziness of heated leather seats – and steering wheel – for a pair of not-so-cozy leather shoes and roam the showfloor to check out what’s hot, cool and what sparkles amidst the industry’s top cars. It would only make sense to start with Cadillac’s latest offering when it comes to their “V” series cars. At the Los Angeles Auto Show in late 2014, we met the ATS-V – the smaller brother of the mid-sized four-door I drove to Motown. Now, get ready for a

Control to not only blast you through the corners with grace and poise, but with the comfort of being able to drive it around town, or between cities/ countries without sacrificing an enjoyable ride. Road or track, I’ll take this one for a spin any day. ACURA NSX Perhaps one of the most anticipated reveals of the last few years from the Japanese automaker, Acura, comes in the form of the NSX. The acronym, which stands for New Sports eXperience, rolled out onto the stage to a frenzy of flashes from the crowd. Heck, even funny man, Jerry Seinfeld, couldn’t miss the reveal as he sat in the front row awaiting its presence. While pricing hasn’t been released yet, it’ll likely be north of $150K. But, for that price, you get a vehicle that not only delivers gargantuan power, but one that is hybridized thanks to an all-new power unit. That unit is a twin-turbocharged, 75-degree DOHC V6 engine with a 9-speed dual clutch transmission (DCT) and three-electric motor Sport Hybrid system. Not to mention Acura’s Super-Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD), so it’s a perfect supercar for all seasons. CHEVROLET VOLT Speaking of electric motors, Chevrolet gave us a preview of the 2016 Volt. With a longer EV range and a lighter body, not to mention a new design, this plug-in hybrid is sure to win even more hearts over. Highlights include an EV range of up to 80 km, a new two-motor drive unit, which is now up to 12 percent more efficient and 45 kg (100 lb) lighter than the first-generation drive unit, and a new 1.5L range extender, designed to use regular unleaded fuel, offering a GM-estimated combined fuel consumption rating of 5.7L/100km.

Lexus NXB Concept Bike. eye. Not only because it was totally out of place at an auto show, but also because it looks so cool. NXB stands for Neo Xtreme Bike and comes with a Lexus original carbon frame, carbon wheels and a KYB inverted suspension up front. Even if it never is ridden, I still like the idea of a zero-emissions commute on something as interesting as this concept. CHEVROLET BOLT EV CONCEPT For a zero emissions commute that doesn’t require muscles but rather a motor, the Chevrolet Bolt EV Concept is another step in the brand’s commitment to the electrification of automobiles. It’s still a concept, but it embodies the philosophy of giving drivers over 300 kilometres of range out of one charge, without charging a premium for it. The concept’s technological prowess can be linked with an App in which you can control various vehicular functions like starting the car from your smartphone. Additionally, it even incorporates the concept of automatic park-and-retrieval technology, which enables the driver to exit the vehicle and tell the Bolt EV concept to park itself – and when errands are completed, the Bolt EV concept can be summoned to return to the owner’s location. Sounds ideal to me! alexandra.straub@drivewaybc.ca

driveway Boom, boom buzz at the big Detroit auto show Detroit, MI – There’s a buzz in motor city because the car industry has roared back in the US and 2014 was another record year in Canada. FORD GT There is no question the Ford GT supercar stole the show at the media preview in Detroit. The mid-engine heart powering this carbon fibre and aluminum 2-door beauty is a new twin-turbo EcoBoost V6 with over 600hp. What really stunned the crowd was the fact Ford has already committed to building the GT, it will be for sale late in 2016. The car displayed is essentially

Audi have the world debut of the three-row Q7 SUV in Detroit. This all-new model is slightly smaller than the outgoing model but it actually offers more interior space for passengers and cargo. The design also makes the Q7 look much less imposing. The biggest news is the reduction in weight; this new Q7 is 325kg lighter than the older model, which is a whopping number, making it roughly 26 percent more efficient. Shortly after the Q7 arrives at dealerships a plug-in diesel hybrid model will be introduced that can deliver the equivalent of

a production model, not a far-reaching concept car. The carbon fibre passenger cell and bodywork, along with aluminum suspension components will help return one of the best power to weight rations in the business. The best part is the design that looks fast standing still, thanks to a teardrop shape and aggressive aerodynamics and functional wings and spoilers. Ford is using the GT as a technology test to help implement features like carbon fibre in all new Ford models to come. AUDI Q7 Since we love SUVs in North America, it was logical for

1.7L/100km. Styling is much more sophisticated and the interior has the all-new dash and MMI system that was first introduced in the soon to arrive Audi TT. LEXUS GS F Another trend at the Detroit show was the introduction or very powerful cars. Lexus introduced the latest “F” performance model called the GS F. Based on the GS mid-sized luxury sedan, the GS F takes things to a much more aggressive level, with a 467hp 5.0L V8 engine pushing all that power through an

signed in 2009 yet it still fits today’s market and has a unique style to it. It rally resembles no other competitor which is more than can be said of many in this market segment, IN THE CAB There is plenty of room in this eight-passenger sport ute. The second row has an extra 25 millimetres, the third has 50 millimetres and there’s a slight an increase to the cargo area. The 60/40 second row and third row bench seats fold flat to give a good surface to transport larger items. Another added improvement is the rear glass that

can be opened independently from the hatch. If you go for the EX-L RES or Touring edition there is a power lift gate. A 229-watt audio system with seven speakers and a subwoofer is available on the LX, SE and EX-L RES model while the Touring comes with a 650-watt, AM/FM/CD Premium audio system with MP3/Windows media and 10 speakers including a 5.1 surround sound theater mode, also a 15 GB hard drive (HDD) audio storage. There is an available Honda DVD rear entertainment system with 9-inch display. An available Honda

satellite-linked navigation system with trilingual voice recognition that responds to over 800 verbal commands, as I do at home. SAFETY FIRST The 2015 Pilot’s standard safety equipment includes Vehicle Stability Assist, commonly known as electronic stability control with traction control and ABS. There are three-row side curtain airbags with roll over sensor; dual stage front air bags, a driver’s front side air bag, and a passenger’s front side air bag with occupant position detection system. There is also hill start assist on all

models. The VTM-4 system directs power to the front differential when extra traction is not required, helping with the fuel economy, when more traction is required, the system engages the rear differential. ROADWORTHY I had the opportunity to take the SE 4WD along some logging roads in Squamish. It was incredibly smooth as it glided over potholes and dodged ditches. Although they were not rough roads it is certainly nice to know that you could take your family camping knowing you can travel to most locations

2015 Honda Pilot is a joy to drive. without experiencing problems because you left the pavement. The Pilot has variable cylinder management (VCM), which shuts down two or three cylinders when not required. The five speed automatic transmission runs smoothly and very quietly when shifting. When the green ECO light comes

CONTRIBUTED

on, I noticed the transmission was a little noisier as the engine decreased the number of cylinders in operation. The Pilot has a tow rating of 2045 kg (4500 lb). VERDICT The 2015 Honda Pilot is a reliable/spacious SUV and is a real joy to drive. ian.harwood@drivewaybc. ca

8-speed automatic to the rear wheels. Lexus hopes this 1830kg sedan will be lean enough and powerful enough to attract buyers of cars like the BMW M5. With standard 19-inch wheels framing orange Brembo brake calipers and featuring a Torque Vectoring Differential, Lexus thinks this Nurburgring tuned sedan is a more than enough to take on the German dominant brands. Styling is dramatic and functional with a lower and wider stance than the regular model. VOLKSWAGEN GOLF The Detroit show always starts with the announcement of the North American Car of the Year. This year the VW Golf won, following on the heels of World Car of the Year and Motor trend Car of the Year awards, and the Golf is a finalist for the Canadian Car of the Year. The Golf is turning heads because of the very refined driving dynamics, classabove interior and powerful and efficient engine choices. The price will also win over buyers, thanks to the production coming out of Mexico; the starting price is $18,995. The Golf features a new 1.8L direct injection and turbocharged 4-cylinder

engine, an optional TDI diesel or the more powerful GTI and Golf R models. The Golf is on sale now. 2015 TOYOTA TACOMA The Detroit-three automakers might have the lion’s share of full size pickup sales but it’s the Toyota Tacoma mid-size pickup that rules the road, outselling the competition two-to-one. Announced at the Detroit show is a heavily updated Tacoma with a new 3.5L V6, replacing the old 4.0L V6, plus either a 6-speed manual or automatic transmission. The engine features direct injection technology and should vastly improve fuel economy. The chassis has been strengthened and the interior updated to today’s standards. The tailgate now has a locking feature and a soft open for easier use, plus the optional cargo bed cover can be secured as well. Also shown was the TRD off-road version, which is a big seller for Toyota and for 2015 it has a crawl feature to aid in off-road adventures, plus a go-pro camera mount to capture all the action. With these updated the latest Tacoma is sure to remain dominant. zack.spencer@drivewaybc. ca

Falcons to be welltravelled in 2015 The Kelowna Falcons will once again be the most travelled team in the West Coast League. The 2015 league schedule was released this week with the Falcons set to cover more than 9,200 kilometres throughout the Pacific Northwest. Kelowna, entering its 15th season, will play an unbalanced 54-game regular season schedule out of the East Division. The Falcons will open the season on the road against the only other Canadian franchise, the Victoria Harbourcats, for the third straight year, on Friday, June 5. It’s the only meeting of the season against the Harbourcats. The Falcons will face their Eastern Division foes—Wenatchee Applesox, Walla Walla Sweets and Yakima Valley Pippins—nine times each over the course of the summer. On Tuesday, June 9 the Falcons will host their home opener and will continue their tradition of offering free admission. The defending WCL Champion Bellingham Bells will make their only stop at Elks Stadium

for a three game series beginning Monday, June 22. The Medford (Oregon) Rogues will make their first ever appearance in Kelowna for a three game series beginning Friday, June 12. The Falcons will face their bitter rivals, the Applesox, nine times in 17 days in July. “This is a big year for us,” said Falcons general manager Mark Nonis. “It’s our 15th season in Kelowna coming off two straight difficult summers. I believe head coach Billy Clontz has a much better handle on things at this standpoint of the year and I’m excited to see our club come together in early June.“ “We made some great strides last summer by filling the ballpark a number of times and we have some exciting things planned for this coming summer.” Game times at Elks are scheduled for 6:35 p.m. , with the exception of Sundays at 6:05 p.m. Select game times may be changed once the promotional schedule is finalized.

Playoff-like hockey this weekend Warren Henderson whenderson@kelownacapnews.com

The Western Hockey League’s No. 1 team against the frontrunners from the U.S. Division— Madison Bowey sees it as an ideal recipe for some intense, playoff-like hockey this weekend in Kelowna. The Rockets will battle the Everett Silvertips— winners of their last six games—in a WHL doubleheader, Friday and Saturday nights at Prospera Place. “They’re a great team, they play tight defensively, and give you limited opportunities,” Bowey, the Rockets’ captain, said of the Silvertips. “It’ll be a matter of sticking to our game plan, working hard and matching the effort that they bring. You have two really good teams, so it should be two great games.” In addition to leading the league in wins and points the Rockets (348-3-0) also possess the

WHL’s most productive power play at 27 per cent. But because the ‘Tips (30-12-3-1) are the least penalized team in the league, Rockets’ head coach Dan Lambert said his club will likely need to find other avenues to be successful. “They’re a very good hockey team, they’re disciplined and don’t take a lot of penalties, so you can’t expect to win games against them on the power play,” said Lambert. “It will be a good measuring stick for us, especially after losing two of the last three. “You can almost look at it as a mini playoff series.” Playing the WHL’s top team in back-to-back games should also be a good measuring stick for the Silvertips, who are coming off a two-game sweep of the Cougars this week in Prince George. But the Silvertips will also be coming to the end of a long haul, and by

Saturday will have played six games in nine nights, the last two against a well-rested Rockets team. “It will certainly be a good test for us, Kelowna is obviously a very good team,” said Silvertips GM Gary Davidson. “It’s been a tough couple of weeks for us with so many games, but we’ve done well and hopefully we can keep it going in that direction. We’ll need to play a team game, that’s the kind of team we have to be.” The Rockets, still looking for their comfort zone with a number of new players in the lineup, haven’t played since losing 5-2 to Seattle last Friday in Kelowna. Lambert said a week without games, with plenty of practise time and a chance to bond off the ice has been a welcome scenario. “I think the biggest thing has been the guys getting comfortable with one another,” he said. “We’ve had some good

workouts off the ice, and on the ice it’s given us a chance to recreate that work ethic that we’ve established here. We needed to let the guys know that we can’t be standing around, waiting for other guys to do it.” As much as bringing in star players, such as Leon Draisaitl and Josh Morrissey, has pushed the Rockets firmly into the status as WHL favourites, Lambert assures nothing is automatic. “A lot of people thought it was going to be easy after the trades we made,” said Lambert, who emphasized that talent alone doesn’t win. “If that were the case, that the best team on paper always wins, then you would just give them the two points every time,” he added. “But that’s not the way it works, there’s too much parity in this league. Everybody wants to come in here and beat us, so we need to be ready and rise to the challenge.”

Bowey, for one, believes it’s only a matter of time— ideally this weekend— B before the Rockets are K firing consistently on all Q cylinders. “It doesn’t matter who comes and goes on a team, you still have to come together and work hard,” Bowey said. “It’s all a process, just staying focused, working hard and it will come. The new guys have fit in well and we’re bringing it all together.” Following this weekend’s games, the Rockets will hit the road for a four-game tour of Alberta, beginning Tuesday night in Red Deer.

Kelly Broderick knows it’s only the first round. Still, knocking off the rival Kelowna Owls this week in Okanagan Valley senior boys basketball action was a significant step for his Mt. Boucherie Bears. The Bears, who headed into the week ranked No. 9 in the province at the 4A level, took down the fifth-ranked Owls 104-83 Tuesday night at Boucherie. “It was a big win for us,” said Broderick, the Bears’ head coach. “We have to put it into perspective though, that this is just the first step, but it really is a great step. “The guys are starting to understand that they have to work and earn this against the top teams and they know what’s needed to compete.” Jeff Tubbs paced the Bears with 26 points, Kache Kopec added 23, Quincy Johnson had 22

points and 14 rebounds, while Braden Koop added 14 and 14. For the Owls, Grade 10 Grant Shephard connected for 20 points, while Nav Sandhu added 14. The Owls, who were playing their eighth game in 12 days—all against ranked teams—may have been experiencing some fatigue. But head coach Harry Parmar isn’t about to use it as an alibi. “We were a step slow,” said Parmar. “It’s about what you do when you don’t have your best game, you find ways to get things done. Mentally we didn’t rise to the level we needed to. “We’re not playing any defense,” he added. “You shouldn’t lose when you score 83 points.” It was the first of two regular season meetings between the teams, the next on Feb. 17 at KSS. The Bears and Owls are very likely to face off a third time in the Okanagan Valley

spend much time savouring their upset win, Broderick said the Bears will carry a heightened degree of confidence into the final weeks of the season. “There was some surprise, but what the guys came out of it with is that we can do it, we can compete,” Broderick added. “We are getting better each week, and there is an understanding as a collective group that we can compete with the top five in the province.” Last weekend, the Bears won two of three games at the Pitt Meadows Air Show tournament, blowing out Belmont and Charles Hayes, and falling 83-75 to No. 7 Heritage Woods. Boucherie will be in West Vancouver Jan. 29 to 31 for a tournament at Collingwood. Meanwhile, the Owls split four games

One of the strongest collections of teams and best individual talent in recent memory will take to the court Feb. 5 to 7 at KSS for the 42nd Interior Savings Western Canada Basketball Tournament. Including the host Owls, all four B.C. teams are currently ranked in the top 10 among 4A schools—No. 2 Burnaby South, No. 6 Winston Churchill and No. 10 Cowichan.

Johnson leads Immaculata Key road trip test for Warriors Mustangs to B.C. Catholic title With 14 games remaining in the BCHL regular season—and the Interior Division playoffs race as tight as a drum— each and every outing is crucial for the West Kelowna Warriors. Rylan Ferster’s club heads west this weekend for three games in as many nights, beginning Friday in Port Alberni against the Bulldogs. On Saturday, the Warriors visit Powell River, before wrapping up the trip Sunday in Surrey. “Focus on the first one,” Ferster said of his team’s approach to the road trip. “Go into Port Alberni and hopefully have a good night. You can’t look too far ahead. There’s a lot of tough games down the stretch.” West Kelowna (22-170-5) is currently fourth in the Interior Division, one point back of Merritt and five head of fifth-place Salmon Arm, both of whom have two games in hand on the Warriors.

Four teams will make the post-season. “Yes we are in a battle so yes, every two points is big,” Ferster added. The Warriors are coming off an 8-4 loss to the first-place Penticton Vees Tuesday at Royal LePage. Connor Chartier scored three goals for the Vees who tallied six times in the second period. The Warriors ran into penalty trouble, taking five minors in a row in the second and third periods. Penticton finished the night with three power play goals on eight chances. “When you’re killing penalties, chances are

you don’t have many chances going the other way,” Ferster said. “It was unfortunate.” The team’s leading point-producer, Liam Blackburn, scored twice in the loss. The Warriors next home action is Saturday, Jan. 31 vs Merritt.

CHIEFS BLANK PRINCETON

Brady Lenardon stopped 32 shots for his first KIJHL shutout as the Kelowna Chiefs downed the hometown Princeton Posse 5-0 Wednesday night. Dakota Little scored twice as the Chiefs won their third game in a row. Kelowna (18-19-2-2) now trails Princeton by just one point for third spot in the Okanagan Division. The Chiefs will visit the Osoyoos Coyotes on Saturday night, before returning home Sunday to host the Summerland Steam. Face off at Rutland Arena is 7 p.m.

Boosted by the dominant performance of Emma Johnson, the Immaculata Mustangs are celebrating the school’s first B.C. Catholic girls basketball championship since 2004. Johnson, who was named the tournament’s MVP and most inspirational player, scored 33 points as the Mustangs drubbed the host Holy Cross Crusaders 78-41 in Saturday’s

provincial final in Surrey. “She dominated defensively and scored a lot of points off steals,” said Mustangs coach Andrew Gini. “Emma is consistently good and just goes hard every game.” Ashlyn Day added 23 points and was named to the tournament allstar team along with Mustangs’ teammate, Nicole Hart. The Mustangs, ranked No. 2 in B.C. 2A girls

basketball, advanced to the championship game with a win over Little Flower Academy in the semifinal. It was the Mustangs first Catholic title in 11 years, when assistant Katie (Woodman) Van de Sype played for Immaculata, and Andrew’s dad, Dino Gini, was the head coach. Both are assistant coaches with this year’s team. “It was nice they

were both there to see it happen after winning it 11 years ago,” Andrew Gini said. Meanwhile, the No. 1-ranked Immaculata boys split four games at the B.C. Catholic finals in Surrey. The Mustangs lost to St. Pat’s by four and St. John Brebeuf Bears by one point, while defeating St. Thomas More and Archbishop Carney by 14.

ALPINE SKIING

Lukinuk earns spot at Canada Winter Games It was a race to the finish for Big White Racer’s Brooke Lukinuk. After no less than six qualifying races in slalom and giant slalom last weekend at Red Mountain, the 15-year-old Kelowna native became the only female from outside the Lower Mainland to earn a berth on B.C.’s alpine team for the upcoming Canada Winter Games. Lukinuk secured her place on Team B.C. with a bronze medal performance in the GS on Jan. 18. “The competition was intense,” said Lukinuk, who will compete in four different disciplines at the Canada Games—slalom, GS, Super G and Ski X. “There are so many awesome skiers in the province and it’s a really

tight field, I am very fortunate to have been one of five to make the team.” Lukinuk will join a small, but elite group of athletes this weekend on the slopes of Big White in preparation for the games, Feb. 14 to 22 in Prince George. Big White will host the final qualifying event prior to the games, a ski X time trial, this Friday in Telus Park. Many U16 racers from around the province will be flying down the ski X track in search of the fastest time, aiming to claim one of the final two spots in the men’s and women’s teams. Saturday and Sunday will see ski X enthusiasts go head-to-head as the resort and ski club hosts the first stop on the Western Ski X Open series.

In Game 3, the Owls fell 77-47 to No. 1 Panorama Ridge. Juliette

Watts, Emily Gotte and Sydney Burke provided much needed relief defensively. In the bronze medal game, the Owls edged No. 3 ranked OKM Huskies 45-44. As a team, the Owls executed on offense and made a much need lay-up to put us ahead one with 30 seconds remaining. Taya Hanson was a first team all-star while captain, Rene Watson, sat out of the tournament due to injury.

A pair of Kelowna athletes landed on the podium at the B.C. Age Class Wrestling Championships last weekend in Richmond. In the school boy age group, Jordan Jaschinsky of KLO Middle School won a silver medal in the 63 kg weight class. In the juvenile boys age group, Michael Vallido of Kelowna Secondary School won a bronze medal in the 72 kg weight class. Both are members of the Central Okanagan Wrestling Association.

third Logan Miron, second Ewan Murray and lead Cam Bridge came from the B side of the draw and needed to defeat defending champion Valleyview twice to capture the valley championship. The Owls did just that with a 6-3 win in the opener, and 6-4 in the second game. The KSS team will represent the Okanagan at the B.C. School Sports curling championships, Feb. 19 to 21 in Creston. Meanwhile, the KSS girls settled for second

place at the girls valleys in Kamloops. Skip Megan McGillivray, Willa Holmwood, Jenaya Copithorne, Katie Cresswell and Ashley Gubeli picked up a pair of wins over Westsyde and South Kamloops, but lost in the semfinal 5-4 to Salmon Arm. For the three Grade 12 players—Holmwood, Cresswell and Gubeli— it was their first season of competitive curling. The Owls programs have been guided this year by coach Beth Cody.

RADWANSKY, MARY ANN. October 5, 1942 ~ January 19, 2015 It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Mary Ann. Predeceased by her parents, her husband Harold, sisters Elsie Paulson and Rose Dudiak and brother Robert. Survived by her daughter, Lisa Watson and grandson, Brett Watson, sister Marge Brenner, nieces Darlene (Colin) Wood, Evelyn (Alec) Spiller, nephews Daniel Dudiak, Gary (Marie) Paulson, Eddie Brenner, great niece, Ashleigh Wood, great nephews, Logan Wood and Caleb Paulson, sister-in-laws, Yvette Paulson and Aileen Radwansky. Mary Ann was a generous woman who always put others needs before her own. Even when in hospice she was disappointed that she couldn’t help her neighbors out.

In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the Central Okanagan Hospice Association. A huge thank you to all her “angels” who cared for her at Hospice House for the 7 weeks she was there. All of the staff there were simply amazing. Also, thank you to all our friends, neighbors and relatives who helped us through this difficult time. A celebration of life will happen in the summer of 2015 as per Mary Ann’s wishes.

GARY WILLIAM TREMBLAY

JUNE 8, 1974 – JANUARY 19, 2015 FAMILY LOVE COMMUNITY It is with profound shock and sadness that we announce Gary’s sudden passing. Gary was a family man first. His wife, Kelly, and children, Zachary, Hayley, and Cassidy, were everything to him. He was the ‘fun guy’ for his kids – a hands on dad who would get right in there to play anything from barbies with his girls to skating and playing hockey with his son to family board game and movie nights with his family. He taught his children how to ride their bikes, skate, swing a golf club and baseball bat and give back to their community. He loved to play hockey, baseball, golf, crib, volleyball and so many other things. Gary did everything at 110% going 100 miles an hour. He cared, and this is evident in the many organizations that Gary gave back to and was involved with: Winfield Minor Hockey, BCJHL, Leduc Giants, North Zone Referees Association, AJHL, City of Leduc, World Sledge Hockey Tournament, LMHA, Hockey Alberta, Leduc Old Blades, AASRA just to name a few. Gary was a husband, dad, son, brother, nephew, uncle, grandson, friend, coach, mentor and leader. He will be missed deeply by his wife Kelly, his children Hayley, Zachary and Cassidy, his parents Ray and Sue Tremblay, his brothers Derek (Kristen) Tremblay and their children Carly, Brooke and Colton and Brent (Jacquie) Tremblay, and their children Ethan and Sarah, his parents in-law Brian and Gloria Scowcroft, his sisters in-law Lesley Scowcroft and Kristine (Don) Ritchie and their children, Brendan and Kaylene his grandmothers Laurette Tremblay and Dorothy Gillespie and grand- parents in-law, Bob and Eleanor Scowcroft and Jack Turner, along with the many loving uncles, aunts and cousins and many friends. Gary played, laughed and taught us much in his short life. A celebration of Gary’s life will be held at his second home on Friday January 23 at 3:00pm at the Leduc Recreation Centre in the soccer field house. Gary believed that minor sports should be affordable and accessible to all children. In lieu of flowers, you may wish to make a donation to the Canadian Tire Jump Start program. Trust funds for his children, Zachary, Hayley and Cassidy have been set up in their names at the Leduc Scotia Bank. See you at the rink. Hainstock and Son Funeral Directors, Leduc - 780-986-2151

NOVEMBER 26, 1916 – JANUARY 16, 2015 Betty Marsh passed away peacefully in the early morning hours of Friday, January 16 at a remarkable 98 years of age, gently assisted by the extraordinary care and affection of the staff of Three Links Manor in Kelowna, BC. Betty was much loved by her family and the vast array of friends whose lives she touched. She is survived by her sons Vic (Kelowna) and Ron (Edmonton), daughter-in-law Maureen (Wirth) and grandchildren, Christine and Greg (Edmonton), niece Barbara and Lanny (Lawrence KA), nephew David and Amy (Brea CA), cousin Julian and Liz (UK) and by many others who loved her and claimed her as their own. Her eldest son Peter , her husband, Tom predeceased Betty both in 1995 and her sister Joan passed away in 2000. Born and raised in Winnipeg, Betty met Tom Marsh at the local Anglican Young People’s Association; they married in 1939. Peter was born prior to Tom’s departure to serve in WWII, with the Winnipeg Grenadiers in Hong Kong and Vic was born shortly after his return. The family decided to join Tom’s recently retired parents in Kelowna when the Red River floods of 1951 forced the family to abandon their new home in Winnipeg. Ron arrived shortly after the family settled in Kelowna, and Betty’s parents joined them shortly after. Betty’s involvement with the Anglican Church continued throughout her life and she quickly found a home at The Cathedral Church of St. Michael & All Angels in downtown Kelowna. She was both a loyal parishioner and a dedicated member of the Altar Guild, as well as a long-standing member of The Order of the Eastern Star. Betty enjoyed a life-long association with the Girl Guides of Canada, joining as a youngster before becoming unit leader and then District Commissioner in Winnipeg. When her family moved to Kelowna, Betty resumed her Guiding involvement; she retired in 1960 as Commissioner for Girl Guides in the Okanagan, and continued to serve as a member of the Silver Tips Trefoil Guild. Through her parents, Elsie and Bert Horton, Betty discovered a family connection to Scotland, which perhaps explained her lifelong love of all things Scottish. Betty danced with Kelowna’s Scottish Country Dancers for many years and celebrated, with great enthusiasm and appropriate regalia, every Robbie Burns Day she could. Betty was also involved with Kelowna’s Multicultural Society. She could often be found selling oatcakes and tea during the Canada Day celebrations when she wasn’t on stage dancing with her good friends and fellow Scottish Country Dancers. Without hesitation, Betty would engage and chat with total strangers. She unabashedly loved dark chocolate, and became an honorary parent or grandparent to many. She was also an enthusiastic knitter and has left a much-treasured collection of Afghan blankets with various people who were important in her life. The warmth and array of vivid colours lovingly knitted into these precious mementos perfectly reflect Betty’s energy, enthusiasm and caring heart and serve as a lasting reminder of our time with her. Betty loved all animals, particularly her “fur persons”, no matter their shape or size, and dogs were some of Betty’s favourite friends. For many years she was actively involved with the Kelowna Branch of the SPCA. For all of us who loved Betty, her memory will continue to shine on as a bright star. If you look to the night sky, you will see a special gift from her grandchildren and daughter-in-law in 2004, the star HIP 36962, in the constellation of Gemini – Betty’s star. In consideration of family members and friends from various locations around the globe who will wish to come to Kelowna to celebrate Betty’s life, her memorial service and reception will take place at The Cathedral Church of St. Michael & All Angels at 2 pm, Saturday, April 18, 2015. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation in Betty’s memory to: The Kelowna Branch of BC SPCA, 3785 Casorso Road, Kelowna, BC V1W 4M7 or The Cathedral Church of St. Michael & All Angels Memorial Fund, (in memory of Betty Marsh), 608 Sutherland Avenue, Kelowna, BC V1Y 5X1. Condolences may be sent to the family by visiting www.firstmemorialfuneralkelowna.com. Arrangements entrusted to First Memorial Funeral Services, Kelowna, BC 250-762-2299.

Culture ENTERTAINMENT: WHAT’S ON

April Wine will be ready to rock in Kelowna Along with Trooper and The Guess Who, April Wine have deep roots in Canada’s rock’n roll history. The band has carried on through numerous band member changes since starting in the early 1970s, but its music has carried through different generations sine then. April Wine has released over 20 albums and have been together for over 40 years, many of their hit songs having become staples of classic radio airplay. Their longevity is reflected by the band’s induction to the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, recipient of the Canadian Music Lifetime Achievement Award in 2009 and being inducted into the east Coast Music Hall of Fame in 2008. Today, April Wine still

consists of two original band members, Brian Greenway on guitar and vocals and Myles Goodwin on lead vocals. Tickets go on sale today, available at Prospera Place Box Office, by calling 250762-5050 or online at selectyourtickets.com. ART EXHIBIT A Scanner Ubiquity Nathan McNinch & Kevin Day Jan. 23 to March 7Dec. Alternator Centre for Contemporary Art Rotary Centre of theArts 421 Cawston Ave. Kelowna 3-21 Ever wondered where all the personal information that we feed into the Internet ends up? So do Vancouver artists Nathan McNinch and Kevin Day. Their exhibition, A Scanner Ubiquity, collates samples of seemingly useless but readily available public information and turns it into works of art.

Using kinetic sculptures throughout the gallery, their works examine, in various ways, everyday information and the use of that data in common applications. The Alternator Centre for Contemporary Art is a registered non-profit charitable organization dedicated to the development of the creative community.

The Tragically Hip, was originally released on Oct. 6, 1992. It reached #1 in Canada and went on to sell more than a million copies while spawning hit singles “Locked in the Trunk of a Car,” “Courage,” “At the Hundredth Meridian,” “Fifty Mission Cap,” “Looking For A Place To Happen,” “Wheat Kings” and “Fully Completely.”

CONCERT The Tragically Hip Saturday, Feb. 7 8 p.m. Prospera Place Kelowna

THEATRE Forever Plaid Feb. 11 to 28 Kelowna Actors Studio 1379 Ellis St. Kelowna

To commemorate the re-issue of Fully Completely, The Tragically Hip will set out on a North American ‘Fully And Completely’ tour. Starting in January 2015, the tour will take in major venues across Canada and the United States where Fully Completely will be played in its entirety. Fully Completely, the third full-length album by

The hilariously charming hit musical Forever Plaid will take you on a trip to Fiftiesville with Sparky, Jinx, Smudge and Frankie, a 1950s boy band. “Forever Plaid is a musical for all ages to enjoy and experience together,” said Kelowna Actors Studio artistic director and choreographer, Randy Leslie. “For many people this

music will evoke fond memories of the 1950s and for others it will be like discovering this musical genre for the very first time.” This critically acclaimed musical celebrating the precision harmonies and well-choreographed moves that were the epitome of 1950s traditional values, home and harmony, the uproariously entertaining Forever Plaid is filled with the nostalgic sounds of that era, performing such hits as “Catch a Falling Star,” “Three Coins in the Fountain,” “Love Is a ManySplendored Thing” and “Magic Moments.” Forever Plaid features a book by Stuart Ross, musical continuity supervision and arrangements by James Raitt. The multi-talented cast of Forever Plaid will feature KAS alumnae who have portrayed some of the biggest iconic characters in musical theatre just last year—

Darren Scuffi (Shrek; Shrek-The Musical) as Francis; Casey Easton (Fagin; Oliver) as Smudge; Mac Mackay, (Motel; Fiddler on the Roof) as Jinx; Nathan Flavel (Harold Hill; The Music Man) as Sparky. The rest of the creative team behind the production includes music director Roslyn Frantz, scenic designers Casey Easton and Nathan Flavel, costume designer Hazel Rodgers, sound designer Jordan Leboe and stage manager Delphine Litke. Showtimes are Wednesday to Sunday, 8 p.m. with dinner at 6:30 p.m., and Saturday matinees 1p.m. THEATRE Big Sister, Little Brother Feb. 12 to 22 Bumbershoot Theater 125-1295 Cannery Lane Kelowna A new twist on the classic story of the Emperor’s New Clothes will lead off the 2015 season at Bumbershoot

Success in Seattle for Kelowna dancers

SUSAN HASCKETT/CONTRIBUTOR

CONCERT April Wine May 11 7:30 p.m. Kelowna Community Theatre

Kelowna ballet dancers Kendra Haskett (left) and Lydia Jane Angel-Fox on international stage.

“It was a great opportunity for Kelowna dancers to be seen in a wider context,” is how Natasha Sarafanov described local dancers performances at the recent Youth America Grand Prix competition in Seattle. Lydia Jane Angel-Fox, Clare Fleming and Kendra Haskett were representing three Kelowna dance schools: Sarafanov Dance Studio, Canadian School of Ballet and Creators Art Centre. There were close to 400 dancers from Washington, Oregon, Idaho and British Columbia competing at this year’s event. Angel-Fox, who just turned 15, danced what Sarafanov described as, “the best performance of her life,” at the event and was selected to attend the prestigious Moscow’s Bolshoi Ballet Academy by the Russian American Foundation in New York, with the opportunity to go to the Bolshoi in Russia as well. “I’m really excited,” said Angel-Fox. “I’m

trained in the Russian style and feel really comfortable with it, so I’m really looking forward to this.” Fleming, who placed in the top 12 in the contemporary category, is now invited to New York City for the Youth America Grand Prix finals week this April, where she is eligible to attend a full slate of workshops with other top young dancers from around the world. “These girls work so hard,” noted Sarafanov, “dancing before school, after school, every day on the weekends—you don’t reach this kind of level without hard work.” Haskett, who also scored well with a strong performance, said one of the nice things about the Seattle competition was getting to connect with other dancers. This was the largest competition she’d ever attended. “Once you get out there and start dancing, the nerves fade away,” she said. The success of the three dancers has a

lot to do with their highly intensive training. All three seek extra classes at different local dance schools. Sarafanov, who opened her studio five years ago to share the Russian training that helped her oldest son, Leonid Sarafanov, go on to become one of the top international dancers in the world today, believes in varied training. “It’s good for the dancers because if (a teacher) gets too familiar with a dancer you might not see the same things that fresh eyes do.” Sarafanov extended congratulations to the dancers’ other teachers—Melville Brown and Chris Larsen of the Canadian School of Ballet and Emma Donley of Creators Arts Centre. “We just want to celebrate the fact that we did it together,” said Sarafanov. “We’d love to have all the dance schools get together, not in competition but to perform together.”

The Giusti Garden in Verona, Italy. The giant cypress trees are part of what makes this garden spectacular.

Giusti Garden a magical mix of chaos and order DOUG OSTER/CONTRIBUTOR

VERONA, Italy—A huge angry stone face looks down on visitors through giant spires of cypress trees at Giusti Garden. The intimidating mascherone was originally designed to breathe fire, probably the only thing that could make it more foreboding.

It was just one of the surprises I and 32 other gardeners found on a 10day trip in September to visit gardens of Northern Italy. Gently sloping trails led to a grotto at the top of the mascherone. On the way, we saw an array of beautiful plants, some

of which I’d never seen before. A hummingbird moth danced from flower to flower, gathering nectar from low-growing blue plumbago that softens the trail’s edges. Pale pink begonias grew wild along an ancient rock wall next to a stone bench amid swaying white windflowers. After the short trek, we were rewarded by stunning views of the main garden path and Verona itself. Shakespeare set three of his plays in the city, including Romeo and Juliet. The Guisti family has owned the palace since the 16th century, and the gardens were created in 1580.

We reached the summit at just the right time. The cheerful, highpitched songs of birds hidden in the thick green foliage joined at noon with those of church bells, creating a lovely symphony. As we worked our way downhill along a winding stone path, we caught another bit of music—the sounds of a piano drifting out of the windows of an adjoining school. It was magical. One thing I love about many European gardeners is the way they embrace weeds, letting them bloom in the right spots. The tiny flowers of wild yellow mustard were the perfect foil for the blue blossoms of the plumbago. In a formal

garden, they would have been eliminated because they aren’t a cultivated species. Our descent offered yet another different view of the centre garden. Cypress trees reached for the sky, creating axis points for the long paths. Neatly trimmed topiary, a maze and huge, beautifully planted containers are all things expected in a great Italian garden like this one. We could get a close look at the many statues or take a seat and listen to the cascading water of the fountains. As we kept walking, we were greeted with another surprise: Only in Italy could you find a long line of clay pots filled with

different coloured lantana blooms, perched single file on a weathered rock wall. The simple beauty of the presentation was spellbinding. The fact that some of the pots were cracked only added to the effect. As our tour ended, I looked over to see common orange lantana mingling with statuesque white anemone that danced in the breeze. Behind them, some pink hibiscus swayed in consort. This combination embodied the feeling of this place—chaos and order living together. In this garden, the first big one we visited, it was the perfect mix.
