New highway signs are being installed to remind drivers to keep passing lanes clear.

Drivers must vacate the left lane when a vehicle comes up behind them, unless they are passing another vehicle, avoiding debris on the road, allowing traffic to merge from the right, preparing to turn left or passing an official vehicle stopped on the highway.

That will be the rule any time when the speed limit is 80 km/h or higher and traffic is moving at more than 50 km/h, under changes coming to the Motor Vehicle Act. Hogging the left lane and holding up traffic is already a ticket offence, but one that police found difficult to enforce due to the wording of the legislation, said Transportation Minister Todd Stone. The fine continues to be $109 for unnecessary use of the left lane.

Stone said slow drivers in the left lane are a big frustration, prompting drivers to pass on

the right, which is also illegal. The changes are not intended to encourage people to exceed the speed limit in the left lane, he said.

Amendments tabled in the B.C. legislature Monday also aim to clarify the province’s roadside driving prohibition law, after court challenges. That law gives police powers to impound vehicles and suspend driving privileges for up to 90 days after a driver blows a “warn” or “fail” level of blood alcohol on a roadside screening device.

The “immediate roadside prohibition” program took effect in 2010, effectively replacing most impaired driving charges with administrative penalties, including a threeday driving ban and a $200 administrative fee for those who register between 0.05 and 0.08, if the police officer has reason to believe the driver is impaired.

Province recharges rebate for electric vehicles

Photo submitted

Energy Minister Bill Bennett looks at the power system of a plug-in electric vehicle on display at the Vancouver International Auto Show.

By Tom Fletcher The B.C. government has revived its emission-free vehicle subsidy program, offering up to $5,000 to buyers of battery-powered and plug-in hybrid cars.

Energy Minister Bill Bennett announced the program at the Vancouver Convention Centre as it set up for the annual auto show this week. B.C. will spend $10.6 million, most of it for vehicle purchase rebates and the rest to finance new car charging stations.

The program takes effect April 1 and is funded to continue until March 2018. Those scrapping a 2000-orolder vehicle can receive an additional $3,250 toward a new battery electric or eligible plug-in hybrid under the BC Scrap-It program.

Even with the rebate, an electric car is more expensive to buy than a comparable gasolinepowered vehicle, but the fuel savings average about $1,600 a year compared to gasoline.

B.C.’s last electric vehicle rebate program ran from 2011 to 2014, subsidizing the purchase of 950 electric vehicles and more than 1,000 charging stations.

Bennett said electric vehicles and charging stations are not just a big-city option, and some are used in his home town of Cranbrook and other towns across the province, despite their shorter

range.

“Anybody with a 200-

amp service can put a 30-amp breaker on their

panel, put a charging station in their drive-

way or in their garage and charge their vehicle at home,” Bennett said.

That option won’t qualify for any provincial subsidy, other than for the vehicle.

The program also includes rebates of up to $6,000 for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, which are still not sold in B.C. Hydrogen vehicles were heavily promoted leading up to the 2010 Winter Olympics, with a fleet of 20 transit buses provided for Whistler. They were parked late last year, after bringing in hydrogen fuel from Quebec to keep them running.

If they can’t be sold they will be converted to diesel.

Hydrogen fuel cell cars are available in California, although at least one manufacturer expects to have them available in B.C. within two years, Bennett said.

The Weekend View

Making real progress on poverty

B.C. Views

by Tom Fletcher The B.C. government has made its most significant moves in decades to address the needs of some of the province’s poorest people.

The largest financial commitment is for a new program to help single parents escape from the welfare trap. There are 16,000 single parents in B.C. receiving provincial income assistance or disability payments, most of them women.

Even if they could find an entry-level job, it wouldn’t pay enough to cover the child care they would need to go to work. Worst of all, the current system requires that if they enrol in training, they lose their income assistance, including dental and extended medical care for themselves and their children.

That is the welfare trap, one of the most perverse government policies to have survived into our supposedly enlightened modern era.

The new program takes effect in September. It will not only continue income assistance payments when single parents enrol in skills training, it promises to cover their child care and transportation costs for an approved train-

ing program of up to one year.

Medical and child care costs will then be covered for up to a year after training, to allow a transition to employment.

Approved training means training for jobs that are identified as in demand, requiring high school and occupationspecific training that can be completed in a year or less. They include retail sales, general office work and assistance jobs in health services.

Another overdue policy change is to double the allowable earnings for all income assistance recipients from $200 to $400 a month. This gives people a chance to improve their circumstances by taking whatever part-time or casual work they can manage, without having that little income cut from their already meagre welfare cheques.

And then there was the recent decision to end the claw-back of parental child support payments from income assistance payments.

The province has for many years run a costly child maintenance enforcement program to track down (mostly) deadbeat dads and force them to pay at least a token amount to support their children. Now when they pay child support to a single parent on income assistance, they will at least have the satisfaction of knowing the children actually receive the extra benefit.

These harsh, historic policies were built around a philosophy that

welfare is a temporary last resort, to be withdrawn as soon as some other source of income is identified. That is a valid if unfashionable position to take on behalf of working taxpayers who pay for all this, but it only makes sense if the income assistance recipient has a realistic option.

For those who are already in the entry-level job market, the minimum wage goes up 20 cents an hour in September, from $10.25 to $10.45. This is the beginning of an annual review that will tie the wage to the consumer price index.

A paltry sum, to be sure, but anyone who still thinks jacking the minimum wage up to $15 an hour is a magic solution that won’t cost some entry-level jobs is clinging to a socialist dream world.

• I have been contacted by several low-income seniors who read my recent column on B.C.’s Seniors’ Advocate. They were asking where to find out if they are eligible for support programs such as the SAFER rent subsidy, assistance for Medical Services Plan premiums, property tax deferment and grants to help with home modifications for disabilities.

I apologize for this oversight. One place to start is the Seniors’ Advocate toll-free information line, 1-877-9523181, weekdays 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

High-tech wildlife detection system coming A new high-tech wildlife detection system will be introduced in the East Kootenays as part of the government of B.C.’s new 10-year transportation plan titled “B.C. on the Move.”

Over the next three years, the government plans to invest $75 million in a new Road Safety Improvement Program, which will include the wildlife detection system.

The hope of this detection system is to find an effective technology solution that will reduce

the number of wildlife incidents. The system would warn motorists about the potential for collisions beforehand.

“Two wildlife detection systems will be installed this summer on Highway 3 between Cranbrook and Sparwood, in the highest wildlife collision areas on the corridor,” said Kootenay East MLA Bill Bennett. “The success of this new technology will be monitored to determine future locations to expand these systems in the East Kootenays to further

ensure driver safety.”

RCMP Staff Sgt. Lorne Craig said that he believes the incorporation of this technology will benefit the Elk Valley.

“We do get a fairly large number of motor vehicle versus wildlife crashes in our area just due to the large population of deer and elk,” Craig said. “Anything that can reduce vehicle crashes and reduce injuries to the motoring public is a benefit.”

Along with the wildlife detection system, resurfacing projects

between Cranbrook and the Alberta border will also take place this season, including the resurfacing of the 12 kilometers of highway between Elko and the Elko tunnel.

As part of B.C. on the Move, the 10-year transportation plan will also entail the continued expansion of Highway 3 passing lanes from the east of Cranbrook to the Alberta border.

“The actions prioritized in B.C. on the Move will enhance safety, grow the economy, maintain and replace

aging infrastructure and support trade for B.C.’s expanding resource sectors through Canada’s Asia-Pacific Gateway,” the BC Liberal Government Caucus press release read.

The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure (MOTI) plans to invest a total of $2.5 billion over the next three years to improve British Columbia’s transportation network.

10 Neat Things

by Top Crop Garden, Farm & Pet

Plant now for a Summer Show

1. The first spring bulbs are just poking their heads out of the ground in gardens around the region. Some early bloomers, such as crocus and snowdrops, might even bring colour into the otherwise still sleeping yards. Now is also the time to remember that summer blooming bulbs have to be planted in the spring to ensure a dazzling display in your flowerbed later in the season. Many summer blooming garden favourites are grown from bulbs, tubers or root clumps. They include dahlias, gladioli, lilies and even peonies and hostas. They can be planted as soon as the ground is warm enough, around 10 degrees Celsius. Even if it frosts at night, the soil will keep them well protected.

2. Location. The best site for bulbs is on welldrained rich garden soil. Black Magic Soil is a great soil amendment if you want to improve your soil for bulb planting.

3. Light. Also consider the light requirements of the plants – you will find them on the package.

Summer blooming bulbs will either need full sun like canna lilies, or partial shade like hostas. Bulbs can also make a great addition to your planters and baskets.

4. Plant. After choosing an appropriate site for your bulbs to grow, you can dig with a fork or spade to loosen the soil. Bulbs love Nurseryland bone meal. If you want a strong bulb, use bone meal directly in hole. For larger bulbs, such as dahlia tubers and cannas, it is better to dig a large hole of about 6-8inches. This will prevent the flowers from toppling over from the wind. Don’t worry, they will grow through the soil.

5. Place the bulb on top of this mix, making sure that the eye - this is the growth bud - is facing up before burying the bulb. Then all you have to do is water, fertilize and enjoy. Water the bulbs after planting and give them a good drink every time the soil is dry after the first flower buds appear.

6. Nurseryland Power Bloom Fertilizer is simply one of the best foods for the plant. Feeding your plants monthly, from when the shoots emerge until the plants reach full flower, will keep them beautiful.

7. Some summer blooming bulbs, especially dahlias and gladioli, might need extra support to remain upright. A wire support, such as a peony ring, is an easy way to hold up plants with weak stems and large, heavy blooms. Stakes will also work, however it is a good idea to drive them into place at planting time to avoid accidental damage to the bulbs. If you place your stake after you plant, it can be much easier to support your plant.

8. The different types of bulbs die down at different rates. Cut them down to soil level after the leaves have all yellowed and fallen over. Fading leaves can take away from the overall look of your garden. If they bother you, try growing your bulbs with low-growing herbaceous plants (plants that have no woody growth). They leaf out later on in the season and hide the bulb foliage.

9. Most summer flowering bulbs have to be dug up in the fall and stored indoors through the winter months. Use a spading fork to lift the bulbs from the ground. Some bulbs, such as dahlias, should be stored in clumps with soil around them, on a bed of lightly moistened peat moss in a cool place.

Other bulbs, such as cannas, have to be washed and dried before they can be stored away from sunlight in a cool, dry basement, cellar or garage.

Keep your bulbs well labelled so you know what you are planting next spring.

10. Bulbs are really quite easy. Grab them early so you can have the most varieties to choose from.

Planting bulbs are a great way to get planting early.

Till next time... happy gardening.

(INA) in Costa Rica and the College’s International department began in 2014. When the opportunity to travel to Costa Rica to share knowledge was presented to the College’s Cook Training faculty, Chef Steven was quick to jump at the opportunity.

“The chance to travel to another country and to not only share the skills that I have but to also be able to learn about their culture and their cooking methods was something I definitely wanted to be a part of,” says Lechmann.

During the week of the exchange, 22 Executive Chefs from across Costa Rica participated in professional development, focussing on carving, garnishing and pastries.

Lechmann lead the training in pastry work, sugar work and plate arrangement but also had the opportunity to learn carving skills and traditional Costa Rican cuisine from the local chefs.

to our work in Bolivia, the Caribbean, Kenya and Tanzania.”

The week-long program concluded with a formal luncheon with the Executive Chefs presenting their culinary best to Lechmann for evaluation. He documented the competition on camera and will share a presentation about the experience with the College’s Professional Cook Training students.

It was not all work for Lechmann who also had the opportunity to explore the area. He found the locals very generous with their time and hospitality; his taxi driver Juan even brought him home to have dinner with his family.

“To be able to immerse myself in the culture and to learn traditional cooking techniques from a family in their own home was an incredibly valuable experience,” continues Lechmann.

“Costa Ricans have a true passion for cooking and for providing topnotch service. I hope to pass these ways of thinking on to our students here at COTR.” All of Lechmann’s learning was not of the culinary variety, however. “Overall the entire trip was very humbling,” he recalls. “The Costa Rican people are not materialistic like we can be in Canada. That really made an impact on me. I am reminded that I need to be less wasteful.”

Become a GREEN SHOPPER!

Personals Dear people of Cranbrook: I was hoping to again ask for your help. There is a werewolf in my garden & he is eating my petunias & digging up my dead pets. Poor old fluffy, he was a good hamster but he spent to much time at his ninja classes & my samurai turtle Sam took him out just before he got the turtle, but enough about that, I was asking about help against the werewolf. He frequents the park near my house. Gyro Park has a werewolf in it that seems to like the swings & teeter tooters. He apparently has a thing for flowers but hates wolf’s bane, he leaves that alone. I need him gone. Hopefully the one who killed that red dragon can help me with this too. Will offer the same one million experience points plus another one million experience on top of it because the dragon slayer never claimed it and it could be yours. Just get rid of the werewolf for me.

Coming Events

If tears could build a stairway And memories were a lane, I would walk right up to heaven To bring you home again.

No farewell words were spoken, No time to say goodbye.

You were gone before we knew it, And only God knows why.

Our heart still aches with sadness And secret tears still flow.

What it meant to lose you.

No one will ever know.

Missing you Love Mom & Dad, Melanie, Doug, Brooklyn, Mackenzie, Nicholas and Kyla

OBITUARY David Edmund Rayfield January 8, 1942 – March 19, 2015 Dave departed this world peacefully with his wife’s loving arms wrapped around him. A massive stroke ended his pain and the suffering of rheumatoid arthritis he endured for over 22 years. He fought many battles and faced his foe yet he was not without his gentler side. A very caring, considerate husband, father, brother and uncle, he had love in his heart. Dave was a great story teller and his word was his bond.

His mother often said, “They broke the mold when Dave was born”. With more energy than most, he lived his life to its fullest and on his own terms, right to the end!

In his younger years when he lived at the coast, Dave worked at Vancouver’s race track before school; he was in cubs, scouts, army cadets and the reserves.

Dave took boxing lessons at the Bridgeport Legion and at 10 years old, he won the Marpole Community Center Bronze Glove Trophy. He spent a summer with the Island Department of Fisheries survey crew; drove cab in Vancouver; delivered “Honey Cream Donuts”; was a short order cook at White Spot and the Floating Lady Alexander restaurant and was employed at Ballards Dog Food Company. At age 18 Dave started to learn the glazier business which eventually led him to open and operate his own businesses “Creston Glass” and later ”Ample Glass” in Cranbrook.

During his 30’s, 40’s and 50’s, Dave’s passion was raising thoroughbred horses on his Creston farm, having had horses since he was 10. He played drums and sang in his band for both small and large gigs in various cities, and he was a beautiful dancer.

As a teen, Dave fished off Qualicum beach in his family’s small 12 foot boat, and spent many, many years on BC lakes as well as camping and hunting with his pack horses and his life-long friends, George and Dave. He was a respected outdoorsman, conservationist and horseman.

Dave also enjoyed golfing, holdem poker and water skiing on Kootenay Lake. He was on the city’s rate payer’s council and volunteered at the animal shelter and fire hall in Creston. He was very proud to have provided a home close by for his parents for over 25 years – and to have successful businesses with only a grade 7 education.

Dave will be sadly missed and never forgotten by his wife Bev and extended family that included daughter Destiny, son David, and “Other” son Brad (Suthida); Sisters-in-law Gladys(Brian) Laing, Dianne(Stephen) Morton, grand children and many close nieces and nephews.

A small family gathering will take place this summer to honour and celebrate Dave’s life.

Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service.

Condolences for the family can be offered at: www.mcphersonfh.com

OBITUARY

Leonard Schnell 1969 - 2015 It is with great sorrow that we announce Len passed away suddenly, at East Kootenay Regional Hospital in Cranbrook, at 8:20 pm on Monday, March 16, 2015.

I cried when you passed away.

I still cry today.

Although I loved you dearly, I couldn’t make you stay.

A golden heart stopped beating, Hard working hands at rest.

God broke my heart to prove to me That He only takes the best.

Celtic Tenors bringing music and more to the Key City Theatre

Photo submitted

The Celtic Tenors are bringing their amazing voices and humour to the Key City Theatre on March 29 at 7:30 p.m.

The only tenor group with a truly global audience, The Celtic Tenors will give you a night to remember at Key City Theatre this March 29th.

Whether playing a neighbourhood cathedral or major concert halls in international cities like New York, Amsterdam or Shanghai, you are assured of a professional, sparkling and most of all, good humoured performance. They genuinely love what they do and you’ll see that shine through in each rendition of beautiful Celtic songs like the haunting Danny Boy and exhilarating classics like Nessun Dorma.

From The Celtic Tenors, you’ll get more

than a performance by world-class artists.

You’ll enjoy an evening to savour and a night with tenors who despite their incredible success don’t take themselves too seriously!

The Celtic Tenors have established themselves as the most successful classical crossover artists ever to emerge from Ireland.

In 2000, following an impromptu audition at EMI in London, the Celtic Tenors were signed on the spot to an international record deal, a highly unusual event that was the talk of the music industry.

The Celtic Tenors released their fifth album in late 2014. It is essentially a roots al-

bum with rich harmony driven songs; a collection from North American songwriters including Stephen Foster and Bob Dylan. The Celtic Tenors continue to reinvent the whole tenor idiom by pioneering a new style of ‘cool’ never before seen on the classical stage and by breaking the traditional stuffy tenor mould.

The show is on March 29 at 7: 30 p.m. Tickets are $40 and $35 for Key City Theatre members.

Tickets are available at the Key City Theatre Box Office 250-4267006 and Online at www. keycitytheatre.com.

Leonard Schnell 1969 - 2015 It is with great sorrow that we announce Len passed away suddenly, at East Kootenay Regional Hospital in Cranbrook, at 8:20 pm on Monday, March 16, 2015.

Len was born on May 10, 1969 in the New Hospital in Cranbrook. He was raised and attended school in Cranbrook and was employed at the McDonald’s Restaurant in Cranbrook for the past 19 years. He will be dearly missed by many family and friends.

I cried when you passed away.

I still cry today.

Although I loved you dearly, I couldn’t make you stay.

A golden heart stopped beating, Hard working hands at rest.

God broke my heart to prove to me That He only takes the best.

Len is survived by his brother Roger, and by numerous other relatives. He was predeceased by his parents Allan and Eleanor Schnell.

A memorial gathering and interment for Len will be held in Westlawn Cemetery on Wednesday, April 1, 2015 at 11:30 am.

Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service.

The lower mainland’s Team Joanisse will represent BC at nationals after they defeated Kimberley’s Tom Buchy 5-2 in the final of the 2015 AMJ Campbell BC Mixed Championship in Kelowna.

The rink, who curl out of Royal City, Golden Ears Winter Club and Vernon, is unbeaten since they formed in February, having won every game they’ve played at both playdowns and in the BC Championship.

took an early lead in the final when they opened with a threeender. They then forced Buchy to blank the second end, before stealing one in the third.

Tom Buchy, and third Lori Buchy, second Dave Toffolo and lead Robyn Toffolo, recorded singles in the fifth and seventh end but had to concede in the eighth after running out of rocks. The Kimberley team had previously won the Championship in 2006, 2010 and 2012.

Three members of Team Joanisse had already come close to clinching provin-

cial titles this year as Joanisse was runner-up at the BC Men’s Championships, whilst Orme took bronze at the same event and Aleksic was a BC Scotties bronze medallist.

Speaking after their win, Aleksic said: “It’s always a thrill and honour to represent your province at a national championship. It is all the more special because I have achieved this with my fiancé (Joanisse) and two great friends. We look forward to trying to do BC proud.”

The Buchy rink had secured their place in the final by beating Chilliwack’s Team Freeman 4-3 earlier in the day. The bronze medal winning team consists of skip Mike Freeman, third Kim McLandress, second Mike Arden and lead Victoria Murphy.

The eight-team field at this year’s Championships was a particularly strong one which included five skips who had already won silver medals this year, as well as several past provincial champions.

Team Joanisse will now go on to represent BC at the Canadian Mixed Championship which takes place at The Weston Club in Toronto from November 7-14.

Hugs: To the Kimberley Fire Hall for giving my child with autism a tour of your facility. You guys were awesome, and I’m pretty certain he overcame many of his fears with the trucks because of your patience and kid-friendly attitude. I think his favorite part was using the fire hose!

Slugs: To those people damaging the deer traps. The city should create a bylaw stating every instance of willful damage to the traps would double the number of deer to be culled.

Hugs: Huge, heartfelt thanks to whoever found & displayed the blue wooly hat with white stars. I lost it over a year ago, somewhere along the Park Royal Community Forest access. I love this hat (Fashion Police worthy though it is) and thought it was gone forever.

You have made someone very happy & thankful for the kindness & honesty of strangers!

Hugs: To Randy Renaud at Cranbrook Flooring for his first rate customer service and advice on our recent home flooring purchase. We highly recommend him!

Hugs: To the City of Cranbrook crews who, on Sun. Mar. 15th, worked for hours on end through the pouring rain, to repair broken water mains and restore water back into the homes on Brookview Crescent. Our most sincere THANKS to all of you.

dung on the track. Navigating between the numerous piles is unappreciated by all using the trail and surely the horses don’t find the pavement too pleasant either. Next time please pack a shovel and show some consideration.

Slugs: To the parents/drivers who stop in the middle of the road to let their kids out of the vehicle instead of parking in the designated stalls in front of Mt. Baker high school and to the kids who take their time crossing the streets without even looking....maybe they should have an assembly in school to reinforce road safety.

Hugs: Big hugs to whoever found and turned in my purse on March 15 at the Tamarack Mall. God Bless You and a Big Thank You! Hugs: To all the volunteers and workers at Fort Steele and JCI that help make this years “Fishing Derby” a huge success. No one can predict the weather and everyone stepped up last minute to pull off such an important event.

Slugs: To the furniture store in Cranbrook that has sales. You have terrible customer service and don’t offer any sort of guarantee.

I will choose to take my business elsewhere.

Slugs: To ALL involved in stopping the deer cull. I have witnessed numerous times in town deer being aggressive towards people and other animals. What you all did is a crime and I hope you are punished for your actions.

The Ministry of Energy and Mines will administer and implement the CEV program through partnerships with the New Car Dealers Association of British Columbia, the Fraser Basin Council, and the Canadian Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Association.

Quote: Blair Qualey, president and CEO of the New Car Dealers Association of B.C. is delighted with the announcement.

EV “Our members are seeing increasing interest from consumers in purchasing electric vehicles and this program will provide many with the incentive they need to make a purchase.”

Visitors to the Vancouver International Auto Show, which closes on Sunday, will have the opportunity to take a clean energy vehicle for a spin. Most manufacturers are also showing their clean energy vehicles inside the Vancouver Trade & Convention Centre West.

If you would like to plug in an all-electric Nissan LEAF at your home, this weekend is the last chance you will have to get one for nothing!

British Columbia’s SCRAP-IT Program kindly supplied us with one of the eco-friendly sedans as a prize in our Plug-In to Win Contest, which closes at midnight on Sunday (see below for entry details). The winner will be announced online next week and Driveway will feature an interview with the lucky winner in an upcoming edition.

SCRAP-IT announced its new incentive program here last week, which offers a $3,000 rebate for electric car purchasers if they scrap a 2000 or older vehicle.

This is in addition to the newly announced provincial government program detailed in our main story today.

The LEAF will be on display at the SCRAP-IT booth throughout this weekend at the Vancouver International Auto Show, in the Vancouver Convention Centre West. Qualifying electric vehicles for the organization’s incentive are listed on the SCRAP-IT.ca website. Take a look because some of them, plus vehicles qualifying under the additional government program will be at the show to view and some made available there for test drives outside.

Golf Sportwagon scores a hole in one the core of this success. This lighter, yet stronger platform is so flexible the Volkswagen Group has plans to use it for dozens of vehicles throughout the many brands it builds. The benefit to the consumer is a vehicle that is lighter, can use a smaller, more efficient engine and, with huge economies of scale, VW can lower the price.

The Golf hatchback along with the sportier GTI is available in the market now and very soon the Sportwagon (station wagon), built on the same successful platform, will arrive.

Looks One could be forgiven for not noticing the major changes in this 2015 model but that is the way VW likes to do things-keep the exterior looking familiar, yet radically update the things that are less obvious.

Highline, with a $1,400 premium for an automatic transmission and $2,300 more for a TDI diesel engine.

Inside This Sportwagon is a true sport utility vehicle. It has the lower, sportier stance of a car coupled with a huge cargo area that would put most small crossovers to shame. The front seats are heated and the rear seats split and fold. The remainder of the cabin is the same as the regular Golf family, with front and rear passenger dimensions the same except for rear passenger headroom,

which makes way for the beautiful panoramic sunroof. The dash has high quality switches and dials and even the base model is fitted with a 14.7cm (5.8-inch) radio screen that doubles as a backup camera.

This screen size is a bit on the small side but VW will increase the size slightly when the 2016 model arrives this fall.

old, less efficient 5-cylinder in the previous model. This engine has superb mid-range torque and it runs on less expensive regular fuel. It’s efficient too, using 9.5L/100km in the city and 6.6L on the highway. The optional diesel, with 150hp, but more importantly, 236 lb.ft. of torque is only marginally more efficient, rated at 7.7L city and 5.4L on the highway. Considering this engine is $2,300 more expensive, the new turbo gasoline engine will certainly be a sensible choice for drivers that don’t pile on the kms. The gasoline engine gets a 5-speed

manual or a 6-speed automatic; the diesel gets a 6-speed manual or the high-tech duel clutch automatic. It’s too bad both engines are not offered with the TDI’s transmissions.

Great news for VW fans, waiting for all wheel drive (AWD), the 2017 model will arrive with AWD in the Sportwagon and that technology should spread to the rest of the Golf line.

Verdict Volkswagen held the launch event for this Sportwagon in Texas, hoping for beautiful sunny weather but we were treated to pouring rain. With

the wipers plugging away and the radio on, this latest Golf feels all grown up, almost “Audi Light”. The smooth power, along with the good feedback to the driver, plus the well-insulated cabin reminds us why this car has won so many awards. The Sportwagon takes all the goodness of the hatchback and shares it in a slightly longer and more useful package. If you are in the market for a small sport utility, give this truly sporty utility a try. zack.spencer@drivewaybc.ca

Purchasing a new or used truck is exciting but personalizing it is even more fun!

Believe me when I tell you, buying the truck is the cheap part. I have seen people over the years spend upwards of $25,000 or more on customization. One of the more popular things to do these days is to install a suspension lift along with larger tires and wheels. If you’re going to tackle this yourself, here are a few things you should know.

Installation: Many manufacturers offer manuals for installing lift kits but some installations are quite intricate, requiring some welding or cutting in order to add some necessary components. In this case, having a mechanic or a few knowledgeable friends around will help make the job go smoothly.

Additional Modifications: Upgrading to taller tires also means that a number of components may require part upgrades or some tuning to compensate.

For instance, a truck’s engine is tuned at specific gear ratios to propel the vehicle. When adding taller tires, the gear ratios must be changed accordingly, since the engine has to spin much larger, heavier tires. You will also be required to purchase a speedometer recalibration tool, so you have an accurate reading. Again, consult with more experienced individuals for further insight.

Highway Driving: Larger, wider tires can sometimes result in instability on roads or a noisy, uncomfortable ride, particularly at high speeds. Also, more aggressive off road tires tend to wear faster on the highway and traction might not be as great as you would expect on wet roads.

Weight: larger tires are heavier, which can put a lot of strain on your suspension, particularly if it is a stock suspension. Trusted, durable suspension components and lighter aluminum wheels can sometimes help to reduce the strain.

Handling: Adding a truck suspension lift kit will undoubtedly raise the vehicle’s centre of gravity, resulting in less stable turns. This is a common problem when installing lift kits, but is mostly just a matter of becoming accustomed to a vehicle’s change in performance.

Legality: Some lift kits create such a serious change in your suspension system that it may not be legal. Check the suspension regulations within your province to be sure.

A Few Useful Accessories: Before installing a lift kit, it’s a good idea to first examine if any components will be affected by your vehicle’s new height. Here are a few useful accessories that may need to be upgraded: Brake Upgrades: Stock brakes do not always accommodate larger tires, or will wear easily due to the added strain.

Drivetrain and Differential: Axles, gears, differential covers, lockers and more ensure that your drivetrain is up to par with

2015 is a good year for vintages

By Rob Sass 2015 follows 2014 and 2013 as particularly rich years for automotive milestones – here are five automotive anniversaries.

1955 Ford Thunderbird: The Corvette may have been the first post-war American twoseater from one of the Big Three, but it was the Thunderbird that was the most popular. In fact, after a disappointing first two model years, Chevy was considering killing the Corvette until the runaway popularity of the 1955 T-Bird made them reconsider. Made famous in George Lucas’ film, “American Graffiti,” the 1955-57 two-seater “baby birds” remain the most collect-

ible T-Birds. Happy 60th.

1955 Chevrolet Bel Air: The 1955-57 Bel Air is probably the quintessential American collectible car, and it introduced another American milestone — the Chevy small-block V-8. The brainchild of Chevrolet chief engineer Ed Cole, the small block was relatively light, easy to service and expandable — from its original 265 cubic inches up to the ubiquitous 350 and beyond.

The Bel Air was just the car to showcase the new overheadvalve V-8.

Mazda Miata: This one makes a lot of us feel old: The Miata is 25. Introduced in late 1989 as a 1990 model, for all intents and purposes, it was a British

roadster that wouldn’t leak oil in your garage, or decide not to start below freezing or spontaneously set its dash on fire (not necessarily in that order). Mazda took all the good that we remember from British roadsters (they allegedly dissected several of one of the best, the Lotus Elan) — from sharp handling to a smooth short-throw gearbox — and added five speeds a modern twin-cam engine as well as a beautifully designed manual convertible top. Low mileage first generation Miatas amazingly still trade for under 10 grand in its 25th year; it’s doubtful those prices will hold steady for its 50th.

1955 Chrysler 300: The first

of the “letter series” 300s was originally just known as the “300,” although it was succeeded by the 300B, 300C, etc.

A gorgeous pillarless coupe that was really only built to go racing in NASCAR, it was powered by a 331-cubic-inch Hemi V-8 and was capable of nearly 130 mph, an amazing figure for the day. Just a few more than 1,700 were built, but it was the inspiration for the sensational sedan introduced by Chrysler in 2005.

Happy 60th to the original 300 and happy 10th to the reboot.

1975 Porsche 911 Turbo: The mid-1970s were the dark ages of automotive performance, taking on the moniker “The Malaise Era,” which is known

ing dullness. The Germans didn’t get that memo and, building on years of racing experience using exhaust-driven turbochargers, Porsche introduced the outlandish 911 Turbo Carrera, otherwise known by the internal project number “930.” Porsche used nearly as crude a setup as the turbo employed by the Corvair a decade earlier, and early 930s were very much an on-off proposition with turbo lag aplenty.

But with 0-60 times of around five seconds, the 930 would put most muscle cars to shame.

Many owners got caught by sur-

prise by boost coming on while entering a corner — lift off the gas or brake and the rearengine weight bias plus physics would take care of the rest. A fair number of dentists and pro athletes wrapped 930s around trees. The 40th anniversary has been preceded by a dramatic upswing in 930 prices.

St. Aidan Orthodox welcomes its new rector

Father Andrew (Brent) Applegate and his wife Sonia.

for The Advertiser

Saint Aidan Orthodox Church would like to welcome our new Rector, Father Andrew (Brent) Applegate and his wife Sonia to the East Kootenays. They recently moved to Cranbrook from Calgary where they were attached to St. Peter the Aleut Orthodox Church.

Father Andrew was born in Calgary in 1954 and baptized in the United Church. He met and married Sonia who was baptized in the Ukrainian Orthodox Church and grew up in the small hamlet of Wandering River, Alberta near FatherMcMurray in 1976. Together they embarked upon a spiritual search attending various evangelical, charismatic and mainline protestant churches until coming “home” to the Orthodox

Church in 1983. In 1995 they sold their motel in Wandering River and moved to Calgary to help develop the fledgling mission parish of St. Peter’s. On coming back to Calgary, Brent stared “Pillar to Post” home inspections and then old it in 2001. He then worked as technical sales and marketing manger for Unicrete, Skyline and Canmark Roofing specializing in concrete roof tile installations and other high end roofing products until 2013 when he retired. Father Andrew has taken many courses on Orthodox theology over the years and continues to study at St. Arseny Institute. He was ordained a deacon by Bishop Irenee on July 15, 2012 and as a priest on March 3, 2013. He has been serving St. Aidan Orthodox Church in Cranbrook, travelling here from Calgary every three weeks for

the past 1 ½ years. Father Andrew and Sonia have one son Michael with his wife Katherine, grandson John and a new granddaughter Eliza, who live in Colorado Springs.

Father Andrew and Matushka Sonia, look forward to meeting and visiting with any Orthodox Christians scattered throughout the Kootenays, as well as anyone interested in learning about the Orthodox Christian Church. Father Andrew would also like to get to know as many people as he can and be part of the Kootenay community.

If you see a “slightly” older man in a grey cassock robe with a cross or his “black dress” as Father Andrew jokingly calls it, please stop and say hello.

Final call for Cedric writers

The deadline of May 1st for submissions to the 2015 Cedric Literary Awards is fast approaching and organizers of the writing competition are putting out a final call for submissions.

The Cedric Literary Awards is a first-ofits-kind literary awards program in Canada, created specifically to recognize and celebrate unpublished English and French-speaking BC writers of fiction, creative non-fiction, poetry, and First Nations storytellers, age 50 or better.

Executive Director Veronica Osborn says:

“We’ve been receiving a steady stream of submissions since we put out the Call for Submission on February 1st, but we’re hoping for more so that we can have a competition that is truly representative of the talent we know is out there of writers with a lifetime of experience to share.”

The Cedric Literary Awards is a juried competition, and a prize of $3,000 will be awarded to each of the category winners, with an additional prize of $3,000 given to a First Nations storyteller.

Details about a gala awards event will be an-

nounced at a later date.

“I want The Cedric Literary Awards to be the best writing competition of its kind in Canada,” says Peter Dale, creator of the writing competition.

“Although we’re focused on BC writers and storytellers this year, we hope to take this program nationwide next year.”

Authors interested in taking part in this exciting new writing competition should log on to the website at: www.thecedrics.ca or email Veronica Osborn, at vosborn@thecedrics. ca.

dian Archdiocese of the Orthodox Church in America (OCA). It is in communion with the Greek, Russian Ukrainian, Romanian, Serbian, Antiochian and all of the other canonical Orthodox Churches worldwide which all trace their beginnings back directly to the first apostles. While the Orthodox Church is very large worldwide with around 250 million members, our local St. Aidan mission parish may be in the running for one of the smallest parishes; so if you are looking for a church family, you will find us a welcoming, warm and Christ centred community, and will defi-

nitely not get lost in the crowd!

Everyone is also welcome to “come and see,” please join us for a Saturday evening Vesper (Evening) Prayer service, or a Sunday Divine Liturgy service at 10:30 am.

Plan to stay for a potluck lunch with us downstairs after the Sunday service! Saint Aidan Orthodox Church is on the corner of 7th Ave. and 2nd St. South in Cranbrook (in the old Ukrainian Catholic Church). To reach Father Andrew call or text 250-420-1582 or email: frandrewapplegate@ gmail.com.
