Houseboat visibly lit, witness claims Criminal negligence trial: Man watched collision from shore, heard screams.

By Tim Petruk BLACK PRESS

A houseboat and a speedboat, the latter allegedly operated by Leon Reinbrecht, were “on a collision course” before the crash that killed houseboat owner Ken Brown, a judge has been told.

Reinbrecht’s trial on one count each of criminal negligence causing bodily harm and criminal negligence causing death is ongoing in

B.C. Supreme Court in Kamloops.

He was charged after a crash on Shuswap Lake on July 3, 2010, following a nighttime fireworks display.

To this point, the trial has heard conflicting evidence about whether the houseboat, piloted by Brown, was lit at the time of the collision.

Testifying on Wednesday by video from San Diego, Darren Schneider, whose family has a cabin on Shuswap Lake, said both boats were

lit up before they collided.

Schneider said he had just returned to shore after taking in the fireworks on the lake when a boat on the water caught his attention.

“I heard the sound of an engine on a boat going fairly loud, so I turned to see what was going on,” he said.

“It sounded like it was going a little fast for the conditions and that time of night. I see the speedboat travelling east to west and the houseboat travelling fairly slow headed

east. As I watched, I said to myself, ‘I hope that speedboat is out further than I think.’ It looked like they were on a collision course.”

Schneider said the houseboat was clearly lit.

“There were lights on in the cabin – white lights lighting up the cabin,” he said. “I could see both boats did have lights on. I was concerned when I looked at it that they were See Crown on page 2

Crown to wrap up Monday

Continued from front on a collision course.

They were on the same course.

“That’s when you could see the lights come together and that’s when the collision happened and you could hear the thud as the two boats came together.”

Schneider said about five seconds had passed between when he first looked at the speedboat and when the collision occurred.

He said he ran back into the cabin and asked family members to call 911 before boarding a paddle boat to help those involved in the crash.

“The people on the houseboat were calling for help,” Schneider said.

“You could hear exactly what they were saying. They were yelling for someone to please come help them.”

n A speedboat sits embedded in the houseboat it struck, killing one person and injuring eight others on Shuswap Lake in 2010. The speedboat driver, Leon Reinbrecht, is on trial for criminal negligence.

The trial has previously heard from multiple witnesses who described seeing a speedboat driving erratically in the area prior to the crash.

Last week, a woman who was aboard the speedboat testified Reinbrecht had been drinking and smoking marijuana before the collision took place.

The Crown’s case is expected to wrap up on Monday. Defence plans to call two expert witnesses, but it’s not known if Reinbrecht will take the stand.

Salmon run lower than predicted

By Barb Brouwer

MARKET NEWS STAff

With lower than expected sockeye salmon returns in 2014, some scientists and environmentalists are criticizing the proposal of Fisheries and Oceans Canada to increase the catch of Fraser River sockeye in 2015.

Jim Cooperman, Shuswap Environmental Action Society president, says final 2014 estimate totals of 748,888 late sockeye spawners to the Adams River are less than 22 per cent of the 2010 dominant run.

Overall, he says, the South Thompson run was 94.5 per cent of the average, but was just 30 per cent of the 2010 record run.

“It appears that the problems encountered in 2009, which led to the Cohen inquiry, may be reappearing,” he explained, noting the multi-million-dollar, taxpayer-funded report has basically been shelved.

Stu Cartwright, acting area director of Fisheries and Oceans Canada, agrees there are many variables to consider but defends DFO’s plans which, he says, are carefully designed to manage stocks in a way that supports conservation while maximizing fishing opportunities for First Nations, commercial and recreational fisheries.

He says DFO uses techniques and historical data to collect information based on many variables.

“We create models to make the best educated predictions and sometimes we’re going to be right and sometimes wrong,” he says, noting the science is not precise and major collapses such as experienced in 2009 do happen. “I

don’t want to debate who’s right and who’s wrong; all I know is our science people are doing everything they can.”

But Aaron Hill, executive director of B.C.’s Watershed Watch, disagrees.

“They saw what looked like big numbers, but they were driven by a few populations,” he says, pointing out 60 per cent of the endangered Cultus Lake run was captured in fisheries and the run failed to reach recovery goals. “They have a draft fishing plan that would see harvest rates up again, but this year we’re expecting a much smaller return.”

Hill suspects a 1.4 billion pink salmon hatchery that augments pink salmon populations in the Pacific Ocean is also a concern because they compete with the sockeye for a limited food supply. As well, he says a large body of warm water off the coast of B.C., combined with a mild El Nino is killing off marine animals and sea birds.

“With all these risk factors that are lining up, it’s not a good time to increase fishing rates.

We already have plenty of fishing opportunities.

It’s way too risky.”

Hill is frustrated by

n Sockeye salmon swim in the Adams River towards their spawning grounds in Roderick HaigBrown Provincial Park last October. fisheries plans he says have far too much input from those who benefit.

“But the run size that is actually used for managing the fishery is decided by the Fraser River Panel, which is mostly comprised of fishermen, and they, over and over again throughout the season, adopted a run size that was larger than what the Pacific Salmon Commission was recommending,” Hill says.

“That allowed more fishing and, at the end of season, we find out they overestimated substantially.”

Cartwright, however, says the Fraser River Panel is comprised of Canadian and U.S. government reps and technical committees within the panel that have fishermen or ex-fishermen who help make recommendations and identify fishing opportunities.

Mayes perseveres with crime legislation A private member’s bill promoted by Okanagan-Shuswap MP Colin Mayes continues to move forward.

The bill has recently passed review by the standing committee on justice and human rights.

“This bill endeavors to crack down on criminals that kidnap and sexually assault their victims, giving judges the discretion to increase parole ineligibility for these types of crimes,” said Mayes.

“The goal of this is to help ensure our communities are safer places to raise our families.”

Now that Mayes’ bill has passed committee stage, it will be sent

to the House of Commons. If the House supports the bill, it will then go to the Senate for review.

If the bill passes Senate review, it will then be sent to the governor general for royal assent and would become law.

On March 11, the government introduced bill C-53, also known as the Life Means Life Act, which would mandate incarceration for the duration of the natural life of a person convicted of the same offences targeted by Mayes’ bill.

“I am continuing to pursue my bill in event that the government’s bill does not receive royal assent before the next election,” said Mayes.

“My sincere hope is

that the government’s Life Means Life bill will indeed achieve royal assent before the election because it is a robust proposal and aimed at the same objectives as my bill, making Canada safer and respecting victims of heinous crimes and

their families. However, in the absence of any guarantee that Life Means Life will pass before the election, I will continue to carry my bill through the legislative process as I intended to do before the government announced its bill.”

Christy Clark’s a social media mess

Would somebody in the Liberal office please take control of Christy Clark’s Twitter account?

Our esteemed leader is becoming less esteemed every time she takes to social media.

First, she posts a picture to Twitter, letting all her followers know how proud she was to have found a keepsake album from Rolf Harris – the disgraced entertainer currently serving a 69-month sentence for indecent assaults on four teenage girls.

“Give her a break,” and “she didn’t know” were some of the comments coming to her defence. We find it hard to fathom that such a big fan of Harris would have no idea he is in jail.

And while perhaps she can justify not knowing Harris’ whereabouts, not knowing the reason for Good Friday is a little more concerning.

“Good Friday reminds us that hard work and sacrifice are rewarded. I hope you have a restful and meaningful Easter long weekend.”

Yes folks; Christy Clark mistook Easter for Labour Day. Either that, or she believes that hard work and sacrifice should be rewarded with crucifixion.

Politicians give the media plenty of fodder for questioning their common sense during their dayto-day activities. But Christy Clark has taken the challenge to a whole new level.

Our premier has a serious case of foot-in-mouth disease.

Remember when the favourite retort of those caught in an embarrassing situation was to claim they were misquoted?

Nowadays, the popular argument among those unwise enough to engage in social media before letting their brains process their work is that their Twitter accounts were hacked.

It’s surprising Clark did not use that one on at least one occasion last week.

OpiniOn

staying active to enjoy your years

There are those who would say fishing is not actually a sport, but rather a pastime or activity.

I guess it all depends on one’s definition of sport.

Be that as it may, activities such as biking, hiking and snowshoeing are being taken up by more and more people who want to enjoy the outdoors – people of all ages.

One thing I’ve noticed, though, is that a lot of the so-called ‘seniors’ are taking part in outdoor activities. If they’re not out jogging or cross-country skiing, they’re whipping along on their 27-speed hybrid comfort bikes or playing pickle ball. Seems like you can’t go anywhere these days without having to dodge some senior trying to keep fit.

As for myself, I’ll stick to my fishing. I get plenty of fresh air and I’ve walked many a mile along riverbanks. I know I’ve certainly raised my heart levels trying to land a four- or fivepound trout, not to mention a 250-pound sturgeon.

It also seems like every

The GreaT OuTdOOrs James Murray time I open the newspaper there’s some new keep-fit activity for seniors being promoted by groups like the Canadian Heart and Stroke Foundation or Canadian Cancer Society. Yoga for seniors, dance classes, tai chi.

My point is that more and more older people are taking part in more and more activities and programs designed to keep them active, healthy and happy. It’s hard to keep up – no pun intended. On the other hand, regular physical activity is one of the most important things a person can do for their health.

Regular exercise can help prevent many of the health problems that come with

old age. Medical research has shown that, no matter what your age, you can gain significant improvements in strength, range of motion, balance, bone density and mental clarity through a routine of regular exercise.

Studies have also shown that exercise can help reduce the risk of numerous deceases and health conditions, including cancer, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, stroke, dementia and depression.

The goal of an exercise routine, especially in one’s later years, should be the same as for all those young people you see out trying to stay ahead of the old fogies – strength, cardiovascular health, flexibility and balance.

Regular activity and exercise, combined with proper nutrition, cannot stop the clock but it can slow down the “natural aging” process.

The trick, though, to any exercise program, is to be not only realistic but also smart about it. A preventable injury can put an older person out of commission for a lot longer than when they were

younger. No matter how old or young you are, proper form and technique are key to avoiding injury. Always avoid the temptation to overdo things in terms of both workout length and intensity.

Any form of exercise such as walking, jogging, swimming, biking, kayaking or anything else that increases your heart rate and breathing for an extended period of time – even mowing the lawn and raking leaves – is good for your health. And, while exercise can sometimes be a test of both strength and will, it should not be a chore. The whole point of exercising should be about enjoying life rather than simply maintaining it.

So I think I’ll walk over to the fishing tackle store – which is a good mile from my house – and find out which lakes have turned over. Then maybe I’ll walk back and clean all the leaves out of my boat and get it ready to go fishing. Sport or not, I will always enjoy my fishing. After all, it is good for my health.

Reader questions discrepancy in figures In the Shuswap Market News (Friday, April 4) a story about the protesting of budget cuts to health care in the province appears on page A3.

The article states the reduction of funds by the Harper government is $36 billion with $5 billion of these cuts coming from B.C.

In reading MP Colin Mayes’ “Government caring for all Canadians” report sent to constituents last week, it states our government increased health care to the provinces from $20.3 billion in 2005-06 to $32.1 billion in 201415.

We all acknowledge B.C.’s health care sys-

tem needs an injection of funds to improve health care, reduce surgery waiting times and ensure specialists such as surgeons have the operating room times, facilities and staff, to accommodate the health care needs of British Columbians.

Whose financial figures do we believe, the

ones coming from a news reporter or those from our elected MP? With a federal election just around the corner, it is my opinion we need to see accurate information and not information determined by which political party is preferred by the source.

Government working to support seniors

FRom the hill MP Colin Mayes

As you may know, I am in my final year as your elected representative in Parliament which means that my retirement is approaching after 19 years of serving the communities of the Okanagan - Shuswap as mayor and now Member of Parliament.

In 2012, nearly one in seven Canadians was a senior and this number is expected to nearly double to one in four by the year 2030.

This extraordinary change has already begun to bring new challenges and opportunities to ensure the well-being and high quality of life

for seniors – two objectives that Canada’s government is committed to and is investing in.

Our government established the Ministry for Seniors in 2007 to ensure these objectives are met.

Canada’s government has implemented policies and programs such as pension splitting, increases to Old Age Security, and combatting elder abuse to ensure financial security for seniors while allowing them to age in place.

Our government implemented the New Horizons for Seniors Program which assists seniors’ organizations in investing in their activity centres or in providing programming to support seniors’ wellness and social activities.

This year organizations in the OkanaganShuswap received $263,000 of the annual $10 million fund.

Lions members spread 7,000 tiny, foil-wrapped chocolate eggs around the play area. At 11 a.m., the gates to the play area were opened and the youngest children rushed through to fill their Easter baskets. Five minutes later the older children joined the hunt.

The Lions also hid 50 plastic eggs along the trail to the side.

These numbered eggs were exchanged for large chocolate bunnies.

Ten more bunnies were presented as prizes in the Easter Bonnet Contest. Some very creative bonnets were judged and the winners were: • Five years and under – Lily Seys, Evan Janzen and Lilli Regnier; • Six to 10 years – Naomi Prouty, Zachary Watkins, Kaleyih Stockbrugger;

Accolades for B&B Sunnybrae B&B has scored big in the world of travel.

Booking.com, billed as the world’s number one accommodation site, has unveiled a selection of top accommodations.

With headquarters in Amsterdam, Booking. com lists Sunnybrae B&B one of the top10 bed and breakfast accommodations in North America – with a score of 9.8 out of a possible 10 points.

“What a great honour it is to be recognized as one of the world’s best properties,” says owner Lianne Jansen.

“We are very proud that our property is included in the Booking’s Best, and how great is this for the entire com-

munity.”

The selection highlights properties highly rated by real reviewers who match specific search criteria.

“Best of Booking’s Best celebrates the accommodations that our reviewers love...,” said Paul Hennessy, the company’s chief marketing officer.

Booking.com checks every review to make sure it is written by a real, verified guest, who has booked the accommodation through the Booking.com website or mobile app.

The company only displays reviews from the past 14 months to ensure the most current information and description of the experience.

“This is a truly fantastic B&B. Liann and Robert were very welcoming and it was more like meeting old friends,” posted a couple from the UK. “Everything about our stay was five-star. We cannot recommend Sunnybrae highly enough – it is well worth a visit.”

And another: “In a month in the northwest of North America, staying here has been our best accommodation experience. Spacious, contemporary, two-room unit with a fabulous view,” wrote a couple from Australia.

“Generous breakfast… super clean and modern and excellent value for money. Exceeded our expectations in all respects.”

Friendship based on lies

By Barb Brouwer

market news staff

Enter the secretive, shocking world of spies. Shuswap Theatre’s final MainStage offering of the season is Pack of Lies.

Based on a true story, Hugh Whitemore’s plot centres on Bob and Barbara Jackson and their teenage daughter Julie.

The family is friendly with neighbours, Peter and Helen Kroger, until the couple is arrested and charged with espionage.

The real-life Krogers were spies, who were part of a Soviet espionage network known as the Portland Spy Ring of the 1950s and ’60s.

The Jacksons, meanwhile, lead ordinary lives until a mysterious agent asks to set up a

surveillance operation in their daughter’s bedroom. Their discomfort turns to shock when they discover the object of the undercover operation is their closest friends.

Not only do the Jacksons begin to wonder what lies their friends have told them, but they must also hide the fact British agents have located their base of operations in their home – all the while retaining genuine affection for their friends.

Director Kim MacMillan has assembled an excellent cast of experienced actors as well as a wonderful crew of designers, builders and artists.

Among the cast is newcomer Astrid Varnes, who earned a double major – acting and political science from UBC.

Over 10,000 ads - updated daily bcclassified.com

Following graduation, she worked with Vancouver’s Axis Theatre, and toured a show to schools across B.C. and Canada.

In 2012, Varnes went to the University of Victoria to complete an MA in applied theatre, which includes using theatre for education, social justice or community development.

“It seemed a great way to meld my passion for theatre and political science, in the sense that drama can be used to examine, question, challenge or critique the world around us,” she says.

Other cast members include Mike Nash, Peter Blacklock, Elaine Holmes, Randy Brogden, Jamé Wonacott, Joy Peters and Althea Mongerson.

Pack of Lies opens Friday, April 24 and runs three weekends to May 9.

Tickets are available online at shuswaptheatre.com or at Intwined Fibre Arts, 81 Hudson Ave. See the Shuswap Theatre’s website for details.

Pack of Lies will also be Shuswap Theatre’s entry in the Theatre BC O-Zone Festival in Vernon on May 29.

INFORMATION DESIGNED TO PROMOTE AND ENHANCE YOUR WELLBEING

Colorectal Cancer Does Not Discriminate (NC) You might think that colorectal cancer does not affect young adults, but a closer look at the statistics tells a different story.

While colon cancer mainly affects older people, according to a study in the December issue of the Journal of Adolescent and Young Adult Oncology, colorectal cancer rates are on the rise in young people. The study’s coauthor, Jason Zell, D.O., M.P.H., an assistant professor in the departments of medicine and epidemiology at the University of California, believes that we need to do a much better job at early-age de-

tection.

The Colorectal Cancer Association of Canada (CCAC) is also emphasizing more than ever primary prevention (healthy diet and exercise) for young adults and timely screening for individ-

uals between the ages of 50 and 74.

According to the CCAC, nearly 24,400 people in Canada are diagnosed with colorectal cancer each year and sadly, 9,300 will die from the disease.

Colorectal cancer

does not discriminate, and even the healthiest individual can develop it.

In fact, colorectal cancer is the number one cancer that can be prevented through maintaining a healthy diet. Studies have revealed that

a balanced diet that includes a variety of fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and milk has been linked to a decreased risk of colorectal cancer.

More specifically, it seems that the calcium in milk helps prevent—as well as moderate—the growth of benign polyps in your colon—one of the early signs of colorectal cancer.

Additionally, vitamin D appears to play a significant role in helping the body absorb the calcium and emerging research suggests that vitamin D may inhibit the growth of cancerous cells in the colon. “Milk provides 16 essential nutrients,

such as calcium and vitamin D, which are the nutrients that

cer screenings, tell us that we all have a role to play in reducing our risks and in improving treatment outcomes. They remind us to watch for the following changes in our mouths in between regular dental visits: • alterations to the colour or texture of gums, cheeks or tongue; • persistent mouth sores that do not heal

within 14 days; • chronic sore throat; • difficulty swallowing; • lumps in the neck (even those that aren’t bothersome); • mouth or ear pain.

Most cancers of the mouth can be treated if caught in time.

In order to reduce your risk, embrace a healthy lifestyle and maintain regular dental hygiene appoint-

ments that include oral cancer screenings.

Plan your mealtimes: Plan your day to include time for stopping to eat. When possible, try parking by a relaxing spot like a park, a community garden or a river. Aim for three meals a day to keep your energy up. Skip-

ping meals can make you tired, hungry and tempted to overindulge.

Make healthy choices when eating out: If you need to eat out, expand your options by looking for local food markets, grocery stores, independent diners, restaurants, cafés or sub shops that offer a fresh selection. Choose options that are filling with a mix of meat and fish, whole grains and

veggies. Opt for baked or grilled foods rather than battered and deep fried. Wash down your meal with water instead of a sugary drink.

With a little planning, eating well on the road can be done and you will feel a whole lot better for making the effort.

Get ready to spell

The Literacy Alliance of the Shuswap Society (LASS) is hosting the 2nd Annual LASS Team Spelling Bee Fundraiser this spring.

Don’t panic! Nobody spells alone. It is a fun event to raise money for local literacy programs while building business and organization team spirit.

The LASS Team Spelling Bee Fundraiser will be held on Friday, May 1, from 7:15 to 9 a.m. at the Prestige Harbourfront Resort (a delicious breakfast and guaranteed fun time is included!)

The LASS Team Spelling Bee is a wonderful way for businesses and organizations to treat their staff to a delicious breakfast and a fun teambuilding challenge while supporting literacy in the North Okanagan-Shuswap.

Participating businesses have the opportunity to engage staff in a fun team-building event, network with other community businesses and organizations, and perhaps challenge other businesses to friendly competition.

Last year, $13,000 was raised.

Contact Jennifer Findlay, literacy outreach coordinator, at 250-833-2095 or admin@shuswapliteracy.ca to register your team.

The deadline for team registration is Friday, April 17.

Plan to keep your teeth–before and after retirement British Columbians are keeping their teeth longer. Most adults can expect to enter retirement with most, if not all, of their natural teeth.

However, regular brushing and flossing alone, even with an electric toothbrush, does not guarantee that you’ll still be eating apples at 90. Continuing to visit your dentist regularly for professional care after retirement is just as important to keeping your teeth well into old age.

Your mouth ages too. Even the most scrupulously clean mouth will likely end up with some form of gum recession (when your gums shrink and more of your tooth’s root is exposed and

vulnerable to cavities) or dental disease.

For example, 43 percent of adults 60–79 years of age have root cavities compared to 6 percent of adults 20–39 years of age.1 Dental conditions are often extensive in older adults and can cause pain, infection and tooth loss. The number of adults without any teeth rises from 4 percent among 40–59-year-olds to 22 percent among 60–79-year-olds.1 Studies also show that BC adults have a higher combined rate of decayed (cavities), missing and filled teeth.2 Losing your natural teeth can affect your nutrition and enjoyment of a variety of foods; lead to slurred speech;

and reduce self-esteem. Dental disease can also negatively impact your general health; there are links between poor oral health and other health conditions, such as diabetes and heart disease.

Adults over the age of 60 also have the highest incidence of oral cancer; other risk factors include a high consumption of alcohol and tobacco, especially when combined.3 Oral cancers can be devastating but are very treatable if caught early; it is estimated that approximately 84 percent of oral cancers can be detected by a dentist.4 With planning and ongoing prevention, a 60-year-old can retain their vitality and their teeth for a long time.

Steps to oral health…for life Keep your teeth, gums and dental work clean & maintained.

Brush daily, especially at bedtime, with a soft toothbrush or electric toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste. Please floss!

Make sure you floss at least once a day, especially around dental work like crowns.

Speak to your dentist about any special care for your dental work. Your teeth, gums and jaw bones change with age. You may require some repeat procedures or need to have your dental work repaired or replaced well before you are in advanced age.

Keep up your regular dental exams and cleaning schedule— even after you retire from work.

Plan ahead for all your extended health care needs, including dental care.

Consider investing in a private or group plan when you retire, or put aside savings to cover regular preventive care including dental exams and cleanings.

Early detection of oral disease through regular examinations by a dentist can help to stop or slow the progression of oral disease and lead to better outcomes. Your dentist will monitor the health of your soft tissues and teeth; screen for oral cancer; review any general health concerns; and monitor the ongoing fit and function of your dental work.

Keep it healthy. What’s good for your body is good for your mouth!

Limit the amount of sugary foods and drinks you consume throughout the day. Choose nutritious snacks and drinks, such as cheese or nuts, and water. Rinse with water after eating or drinking.

Keep your dentist or certified specialist up to date.

YOUR DENTAL WORK NEEDS ONGOING MAINTENANCE TO STAY IN GOOD SHAPE. Dental work doesn’t last forever. Even with regular brushing and normal wear and tear. Make professional dental care part of your plan to stay healthy as you age. Regular dental exams detect problems early and prevent dental disease.

To learn more talk to your dentist or visit yourdentalhealth.ca

Your dentist or certified specialist is the doctor of your mouth. Update them on any medications you are taking and/or changes to your health. Many chronic diseases directly affect your teeth, bones and soft oral tissues. For example, some medications can create ‘dry mouth’ which can increase your risk of decay.

Stay active, stay connected, eat a healthy diet, take care of your teeth— and don’t forget about your extended health care needs! Your healthy smile can stay with you…for life.

For more information on caring for your oral health at any age, talk to your dentist or visit yourdentalhealth.ca

School trustees heard a mixed bag of opinions at their first public consultation meeting March 31 in the North Shuswap.

Of primary importance was the need to keep the North Shuswap Elementary school open – even though a school closure for North Shuswap isn’t even part of the recommendations being considered for the 2015-2016 school year.

“School closure, it was brought up,” said board chair Bobbi Johnson. “But that is not in our plans, not at all. It isn’t even in the report, which covers the next 10 years.”

North Shuswap parents may be gun-shy because trustees are considering school closures for Silver Creek Elementary in September and a closure and an amalgamation of K-12 students at Eagle River Secondary in Sicamous, to go along with a shutdown of Parkview Elementary within the next three years.

For the North Shuswap the report is suggesting a switch at the school from a K-7 to a K-8 structure. This would increase the school’s population by about a dozen for the upcoming year and would also alleviate the situation where North Shuswap students attend Carlin Middle School for only one year before heading to high school in Salmon Arm. This would also save money for the school district by reducing busing costs.

“There were a lot of different opinions,” Johnson said. “Some wanted the status quo, others even wanted to go K-9. Some were concerned that the kids have the same opportunities in Grade 8 as they would have at the middle school.”

Johnson says the trustees will now have the difficult task of sifting through the ideas and options before making a decision.

The board is planning to make a determination on the report’s short-term recommendations at the May12 meeting.

Aiming for artist intensive

By Dale Bass

KAMLOOPS THIS WEEK

Ruby Bruce acknowledges her nerves were a bit on edge as she waited to take the stage.

After all, she’d already gone through a couple of rounds of auditions to make it to the finals – one of six who would take the stage at the Abbotsford Agrifair, hoping to win the Valley Voices Vocal Competition.

Once she took the stage, however, the nerves were gone as she launched into covers of Piano by Ariana Grande and On Top of the World by Imagine Dragons.

It was a big moment for the then-11-year-old and, even though she didn’t win, making it to the last stage was encouraging.

Ruby, who lives in the North Shuswap, now has her sights set on growing her talent in Los Angeles at VocalizeU Summer Artist Intensive, 10 days working with songwriters, performance experts, voice trainers and other professionals. She’s working to raise $4,220 – with $1,250 already donated at her crowd-sourcing online site at gofundme.com.

Ruby’s already developed a following in the area, having won the 2013 Shuswap Idol competition – where she performed The Cave by Mumford and Sons, State of Grace by Taylor Swift and Turn Off the Lights

by Nelly Furtado.

She’s performed at the Celista Coffeehouse and at Friday Night Live at the Scotch Creek Centre – where she was the main performer and filled a 45-minute set.

More recently, she did a gig at The Art We Are, but music wasn’t her first love. Ruby started dance lessons when she was about three and continues to study many genres, except tap, and she plays the trumpet in her school band. Sister Claire plays piano.

Ruby has always loved to sing, but, around the age of eight, that part of her artistic side started to become more dominant.

Add in a guitar and shape it all through musical influences ranging from Swift to Florence

and the Machine and you end up with a poised, polished young girl who is comfortable on stage and wants to add depth to her music, eventually moving into writing songs of her own.

That’s why she’s so keen to attend the California program – with mom Nicole travelling with her – an educational opportunity designed for artists 13 and older, where the days are filled with sessions on the business of music, learning to write songs, auditioning for musical theatre and growing one’s voice, where mentors will provide feedback as well as instruction and where the days end with relaxation, collaboration and jamming.

Anyone interested in helping Ruby can donate online at gofundme.com/pz36dg.

Adams Lake lumber on display

By Barb Brouwer

MARKET NEWS STAFF

Douglas Fir lumber donated by Corporation from its sawmill in Adams Lake will be providing good cover to a market in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside, one of Canada’s most disadvantaged neighbourhoods.

The wood forms part of a structure dubbed the Lions Marquee and used at a conference to show 1,000 of the world’s leading think-

ers and doers the beauty of wood.

Built for TED2015, the marquee was designed by 17 students from the University of British Columbia, Kwantlen Polytechnic University, the British Columbia Institute of Technology and Emily Carr University of Art and Design under the direction of the not-for-profit DBR – Design Build Research Institute.

The marquee will be moved to the DTES

Street Market, which runs every Sunday and supports hundreds of local residents.

“The Lions Marquee shows the beauty and versatility of B.C.’s incredible forest resources, and fits with our company’s promise to build value for our communities,” says Steven Hofer, Interfor’s senior vicepresident, sales & marketing.

“When TED organizers asked us for a structure to shelter par-

Facts about hair While hair can help keep your head warm, there’s more to hair than what meets the eye. For a healthy individual with no hair diseases, hair is very strong with enormous tensile strength. In fact, human hair is about as strong as copper wire of the same diameter. That means one strand of hair can support up to 100 grams in weight. Considering the average head of hair contains about 100,000 to 150,000 strands of hair in all, the combined strength of human hair could feasibly support up to 12 tons, or the equivalent of two African elephants.

tain peaks, and is easily re-purposed for future use in the community.”

The marquee was located next to the Vancouver Conference Centre where TED – the non-profit devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading – recently held its annual conference.

BIRKELAND, GERTRUDE MAY Mrs. Gertrude (Tonnie) Birkeland passed away at Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops in the early morning of March 30, 2015.

She died peacefully of old age in her sleep at the age of 92 years.

Tonnie was loved and respected by many in the Chase community. She volunteered with the choir and as organist at St. Andres All Saints Church for many years. She donated property to Sunshore Golf Course when residing on Pine Street. She was actively involved in the duplicate bridge club, the golf club, and participated in many seniors’ events in Chase over the years. She lived on her own on Arbutus Street until January, 2015.

A Memorial Service and Reception is scheduled for 11:00 AM on Sunday, April 12, at the Chase Community Center. Funeral arrangements are entrusted to Schoening’s Funeral Services in Kamloops. She will be cremated and buried with her husband in the family plots at the Chase Cemetery.

EVAN BUHLER/MARKET NEWS

Funds on track for rail corridor purchase BLACK PRESS

Provincial cash is being pumped into preserving a rail corridor.

Victoria committed Tuesday to providing $7.2 million towards the purchase of the abandoned Canadian National line from Coldstream to Kelowna.

“By putting an unused rail line to better use, connecting communities as a cycling and walking trail, there will be even more reasons to get outside,” said Premier Christy Clark.

Clark’s announcement came as no surprise to the local jurisdictions who will make up the remainder of the $22 million price tag.

“We’ve been basing our figures on a provincial grant happening,” said James Baker, Lake Country mayor.

Besides Lake Country, the other partners are Kelowna and the Regional District of North Okanagan.

“I’m pleased they (province) have recognized it’s a positive thing for the region,” said Juliette Cunningham, chairperson of the Greater Vernon Advisory Committee, which is part of RDNO. However, provincial funding depends on a positive April 25 referendum in Lake Country to borrow $2.6 million for the rail purchase.

“By making our intention clear to financially assist with the acquisition, I hope it

will better inform residents of Lake Country as they consider how they will vote on the upcoming referendum,” said Norm Letnick, Lake Country MLA. Baker is confident government funding will alleviate some public concerns over buying the land.

“We see this as an investment for the future and an opportunity for (tourism) revenue so we don’t have to tax,” he said.

That view is also supported by Cunningham.

“We don’t often get an opportunity for such a contiguous public access. It opens up opportunities for tourism,” she said.

The Okanagan Indian Band recently filed

documents in B.C. Supreme Court over its claim to the Commonage lands, which includes the CN line along Kalamalka Lake.

Chief Byron Louis doesn’t believe the provincial government is interfering in the case by helping local com-

munities purchase the corridor.

“I don’t think it will have much effect on the court case either way,” he said.

“Courts don’t decide based on whether a sitting government is in favour or not. They look at the facts.”
