Kimberley Independent School students Painted the Town for Fish last week. The students at KIS are involved in Columbia Basin Trust (CBT) “Know Your Watershed” program, which is administered and managed through Wildsight and was greatly supported by the city of Kimberley. The KIS students, painted storm drains on June 10th, in the Marysville area with yellow fish, to remind people that anything going into the drains goes directly into Mark Creek and into the St. Mary River without being treated first. They did a great job.

Missing man found TREVOR CRAWLEY

Paul Kerr has been located and taken to hospital after mountain bikers discovered him pinned beneath his motorcycle near St. Mary’s Lake on Tuesday evening.

Kerr, who had been missing since Sunday, was taken to East Kootenay Regional Hospital, but his current condition is unknown, however, one of the mountain bikers who found him says he’s lucky to be alive.

Warren Boychuk, a native of Sherwood Park, was biking in the area with

some friends when they found him just off the St. Mary’s Lake Road, roughly five kilometres outside Kimberley.

“He was barely hanging on,” Boychuk said. “He had all the signs that he was a goner.

“There was flies everywhere, the smell wasn’t too hot and his eyes were kind of bugged out and he was foaming at the mouth.”

The Round the Mountain Festival has been successful right from the start and this year a new

record for registration has been set with 476 people signed up to hike, bike or run the Round the Mountain Trail.

With that many participants, logistics will be key, so all are encouraged to come to the registration centre on Saturday, June

20 between 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. to sign waivers, collect bibs, t-shirts, hats, maps etc.

With the first 150 trekkers going off at 7 a.m., and staggered starts thereafter, the more people registered early, the better.

When the city of Prince George was being established a century ago, the aboriginal people on the site of the present downtown area were relocated to a new reserve and their homes were burned.

That’s a part of B.C. history that many people in Prince George and around the province don’t know, and an example of why changes are coming to B.C. school curriculum, says Aboriginal Relations Minister John Rustad.

More changes will be announced soon for post-secondary education, based on the recommendations of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada. The B.C. government is providing $4.3 million to establish an emergency financial assistance for aboriginal students and $12 million for a scholarship program.

“There have been attempts over the years to include more information around First Nations and our aboriginal history, but this is going quite a bit further and trying to tell a more complete history of us as Canadians, all Canadians,” Rustad said.

National Aboriginal

Tahltan Nation dancers enter the B.C. legislature in 2013 for a ceremony to sign a resource management agreement for mining and other industrial development in their northwest B.C. territory.

Day is Sunday, June 21.

Rustad will be in Prince George at a ceremony to rename Fort George Park to recognize the original inhabitants, the Lheidli T’enneh First Nation. A Lheidli T’enneh flag will be raised at city hall where it will be permanently flown.

National Aboriginal Day events are planned around the province, including a three-day cultural festival at the Royal B.C. Museum in Victoria with dance, arts and crafts and traditional foods.

The past year has been pivotal for aboriginal relations in B.C., with the Supreme Court

of Canada’s landmark decision recognizing aboriginal title to traditional territory of the Tsilhqot’in Nation near Williams Lake. The province is working on a protocol to manage access by non-aboriginal people to the Nemiah Valley, where provincial jurisdiction no longer applies.

While progress in treaty negotiations has been slow, the B.C. government continues to reach resource revenue sharing agreements with First Nations around the province, covering forestry, mining and oil and gas projects.

On Wednesday, the Intensive French class went to “Ideal Farm” to learn about plants and animals “en Francais”.

Holding hens, petting goats and brushing ponies were some of the

activities we enjoyed.

Our Grade 4s enjoyed a tremendous experience out at Fort Steel. They learned to march, mined, played pioneer games and learned about the rail-

way while riding the train. What a great day!

Friday was “A Touch of Class Day”. Students were encouraged to dress in their Sunday best. Some of the outfits were out of this

world (wink, wink, nudge, nudge, Miss Turcon!). We all looked fabulous. Great job, everybody!

Down to our last two weeks.

McKim, out!

The group split up as one member went to the St. Mary’s Lake Resort to call for help while Boychuk and others stayed to lift the 2009 BMW motorcycle off him and wait for emergency services.

“When he heard the sirens, he kind of got excited and was flinching around.

“I just told him to relax and that everything was going to be okay,” Boychuk said.

Kerr had been missing since Sunday after failing to report in from a planned trip across the Gray Creek Pass with his motorbike.

Distracted driving has risen to become just as dangerous as driving while impaired, and now the province is looking at increasing driving penalties for the offence.

The province is doing a public consultation to see if the current penalty—a $167 fine and three penalty points—are enough to deter the behaviour.

The consultation asks questions such as: • Should drivers caught texting face greater sanctions than those talking on a handheld device?

• Should new drivers or repeat offenders face greater penalties?

• Should sanctions such as prohibitions and vehicle impoundments be considered?

Under the definition of using of an electronic device, there is a complete ban on a driver who is holding, operating, communicating, or watching the screen of a hand-held electronic communication device, including devices that process or compute data.

The province wants your input on penalties for distracted driving.

When distracted driving legislation was first introduced five years ago, there was only the $167 fine, with the addition of penalty points made last fall.

Penalties vary from province to province.

In Nova Scotia, the maximum fine amount is $579, while Ontario’s is $500. Ontario has recently passed legislation to change the maximum fine amount to $1,000.

“This is a chance for British Columbians to tell us their thoughts on distracted driving sanctions and how they would stop this dangerous behaviour. We’ve

heard the calls that people want more protection from distracted drivers and we agree there’s more work to be done,” said Suzanne Anton, the B.C. Attorney General and Minister of Justice.

“We took a first step and increased the penalties last fall and now we’re looking at possible changes to the legislation, including more severe penalties. We want to ensure these are set at a level that is fair and effectively changes behaviour. Add your voice and help make B.C.’s roads the safest in North America by 2020.”

In 2014, police issued approximately 55,100 tickets to drivers who were caught using an electronic device behind the wheel while 53,000 were issued in 2013.

An estimated 9,500 drivers in B.C. are using a hand-held electronic device at any given time, and 40 per cent of them are texting or emailing while driving. Texting or using a smartphone while driving is more distracting than talking on one - the crash risk is 23 times higher for drivers who text.

“We know some drivers still aren’t getting the message that no call or text is worth risking your life,” said Steve Crombie, ICBC vice president of corporate and stakeholder governance. “Engaging with drivers across B.C. is an important step in addressing this serious issue and making our roads safer for everyone.”

To participate in the public consultation, visit h t t p : / / e n g a g e . g o v. bc.ca/distracteddriving

for the effort over the past few days.”

According to an RCMP update, it looked like Kerr and the motorcycle left the road after a series of curves.

Boychuk agreed.

“I think he just kind of flew right into the bushes and then he tumbled a couple times and then the bike went right on top of him. It was a pretty rough fall,” he said.

Boychuk and his friends were cutting through an area near the St. Mary’s Lake Road in order to get to Highway 95A and said it was sheer luck that they found Kerr.

Province looks at increasing distracted driving penalties

the night without success and contacted Search and Rescue who initiated a search early Monday morning.

Teams from Cranbrook, Kimberley, Sparwood, Fernie, Creston and Invermere, along with a helicopter and fixed wing aircraft, had been searching the area for two days.

“The search teams did an amazing job with some long hours; their dedication to helping others in distress is to be commended,” said Cpl. Chris Newel, with Kimberley RCMP. “They are all volunteers who give up their free time to assist. We are truly grateful

Despite failing to win a game in their first four games of the season, the Kimberley Dynamos ball team are a far from discouraged lot and remain determined to continue against the best competition available. In Manager Walter Gelling’s words, “There’s no sense fooling ourselves – we’re being beaten by good ball teams which are being helped by our errors and lack of hitting, but one doesn’t improve by playing clubs of a lower calibre. We’ve got to work up to the calibre of the teams we’re playing.”

The executive apparently feels the same way and are showing a lot of faith and limitless energy with a comparatively young team of local youngsters such as Bob Pearson, Daryll Dixon, Bim Braem, Jim Ratcliffe, Lyall Hammett, Harvey Nash and Ken Kuntz.

This weekend, the team plays their first games on the road, being scheduled for a two game series in the new Trail Park against the team touted as the West Kootenay’s best.

After this series with Trail the following weekend will see them visiting Bonners Ferry for a game under the

lights on Saturday night and then back home for a game Sunday afternoon against the same club.

On the July 1 holiday weekend the team is to be the honoured guests of the Granum White Sox, being invited to play at the annual Claresholm Sports Day. The team was no doubt against a better ball team when matched with the semi-pro Granum aggregation in their opening games, but last weekend, against the youthful Spokane Krems, they could very easily have won either game.

The Saturday afternoon game, backed by the steady pitching performance of Les Lilley, saw the team come through with an errorless nine innings. If anything, that’s promising.

After getting away to a four run lead in the second game, lack of experience showed itself in the form of some apparently needless errors, but it’s hoped practice and a few more games will eliminate most of these.

The Junior Baseball Organization is well on its way to a busy season and has none other than well known sportsman Chris Sorenson as its president and sponsor.

Secretary-Treasurer of the club is Don Bond, while executive members are J. Dixon, and E. Johnson. Dave McLay is the manager.

The team is practising steadily, and their season is expected to

open with a challenge game against the Senior Dynamos.

Last season, the team played close to 35 games, playing tournaments and exhibitions in the Windermere Valley and the Crows Nest Pass.

The future of the Dynamiters continues to hold much speculation, but the outcome of a recent meeting between executive, players and fans, indicated at any rate senior hockey would not necessarily die because of severance with W.I.H.L. play.

Exhibition games are hoped to take up the season’s play with an eye towards entrance into the Allan Cup playdowns. If such comes to pass, it could possibly work out to prove a more satisfactory arrangement than being committed to a lengthy playing schedule, which themselves, with all teams being admitted into the playoffs, were nothing more than exhibition matches.

Former Dynamiter, Doug Kilburn, now with Penticton V’s, recently won $1000 and first prize in the Penticton Band’s Search for talent contest, with vocal imitations of the late Al Jolson.

Penticton V’s, $17,300 in debt, are conducting an intensive drive to keep their team alive. At last reports, their fund-raising has exceeded $2,000. An intensive telephone campaign is planned.

Word has now been received from the Department of Education at Victoria that the bid of C.J. oliver Limited to construct the new senior high school has been approved.

Work on site preparation has been underway for several weeks, machinery of the Consolidated Mining and Smelting Co. and the Bayes Construction Company having been utilized: the site of

the building itself is practically ready, and C.J. Oliver Limited hope to start work within a week.

Original low bidder, at approximately $6000 below the next lowest tender, C.J. Oliver Limited have now signed a contract for $349,124.00: delay in approving the contract was occasioned by the fact that even the lowest bid was somewhat greater than the estimate in the Referendum. The shortage was made up by using several thousand dollars left over from funds

raised to build Lindsay Park and Chapman Camp Elementary Schools, together with a smaller amount remaining in the old “Special Building Fund” account.

The Oliver firm is well known in the district, having built the new Kimberley post Office, the addition to Blarchmont Elementary School, the new Provincial Government Building at Cranbrook and the addition to the Mount Baker High School, also at Cranbrook.

Omar al-Bashir and International Law

S

udan’s President Omar al-Bashir, facing an arrest warrant from the International Criminal Court (ICC) for genocide and war crimes, fled from an African Union summit meeting on Monday before the conference ended. The South African High Court was going to order him arrested and handed over to the ICC, but the South African government let him fly out of a military airport near Pretoria.

There is outrage in South Africa at this breach of the law, but there is also a belief in the rest of the continent (especially among national leaders) that the ICC is prejudiced against African countries.

Is the ICC out of control, or is it just trying to do its job?

President Jacob Zuma’s government had a serious public relations problem. In the past month South Africa has seen a great deal of xenophobic violence against illegal immigrants and their property. It’s embarrassing for Zuma, and clearly contrary to the spirit of African solidarity, so he felt that he couldn’t let an African head of state be arrested while attending an AU summit in his country.

The resentment of poor South Africans at the presence of so many illegal immigrants from other African countries (probably between 5 and 10 percent of the population) is understandable but inexcusable. The right solution is for South Africa to take control of its borders, but meanwhile Zuma has to placate his African Union partners.

Zuma had to sneak Bashir out of the country because South Africa’s High Court is still independent, and it was about to rule that Bashir must be handed over to the ICC for trial. Indeed, Judge Dunstan Mlambo did rule exactly that — “The gov-

ernment’s failure to arrest Bashir is inconsistent with the Constitution” — only hours after Bashir fled.

Well, obviously. Since South Africa is one of the 123 countries that signed up to the ICC, it is legally obliged to enforce its arrest warrants. Some other African countries also take the ICC seriously. In 2012 an AU summit was moved from Malawi after the government refused to let Bashir attend, and in 2013 the Sudanese president had to leave Nigeria earlier than planned after a rights group went to Gwynne court to compel the authorities to arrest him.

Dyer But most African governments now ignore ICC rulings because, they claim, the court only targets African criminals – and it’s true that all the arrest warrants now in force are for Africans. This understandably causes deep suspicions in the African continent.

Under the same international laws, shouldn’t former US president George W. Bush be indicted as a war criminal for illegally invading a sovereign country, Iraq?

No, actually, because the ICC can only arrest the citizens of countries that have signed up to the ICC, and the United States hasn’t. (Neither has Sudan, but there is an exception for war criminals who are specifically designated by the United Nations Security Council, as Bashir was.)

The wounds of colonialism are still raw, and it just feels wrong. But which of these people would you want to drop from the list?

Joseph Kony, the self-proclaimed prophet whose Lord’s Resistance Army murdered tens of thousands of innocent people in northern Uganda and adjacent countries?

Jean-Pierre Bemba, a former Congo-

lese rebel leader who is on trial for crimes against humanity and war crimes over alleged cases of murder, rape and pillage in the Central African Republic in 2002 and 2003?

Or Ivory Coast’s former President Laurent Gbagbo, who faces four charges of crimes against humanity — murder, rape and other forms of sexual violence, persecution and “other inhuman acts” — in the violence that followed disputed elections in 2010?

None of these men are being lynched.

They have just been summoned to face a trial, with all the legal rights they are accused of denying to others. And in most cases, the prosecution have been undertaken with the support of the relevant African country.

African countries dominate the list for two reasons. One is that more than half the world’s wars are in Africa. The other is that African countries, so vulnerable to violence, have a strong interest in establishing the rule of law, and most African lawyers and senior civil servants understand that.

They are often thwarted by their presidents and prime ministers, who belong to a very exclusive club. African leaders are as prone as any other interest group to try to exempt themselves from rules that hold them legally responsible for their actions.

The ICC has also made mistakes, like bringing cases against senior politicians when there was no realistic chance of getting the evidence needed for a conviction (like President Uhuru Kenyatta in Kenya).

But even if it fails much of the time, the ICC is a worthwhile enterprise. It is part of a long-term effort to build a world that is ruled by law, not by force, even if that goal is still a century in the future – and in the meantime, it occasionally gives the victims justice right here in the present.

Thanks for Bananas

Opinion/Events Letters to the Editor

At Save on Foods on the evening of June 13, my sole item was mistakenly added to the groceries of a young lady in line ahead of me. When I didn’t see them on the counter I asked the clerk if he put the bananas through on her order. He had. He removed them from the bag and she had already paid for her order and she very graciously said “Enjoy!” and left the store. I did not properly thank her, so now I say Thank you!

received. In fact, Canada Revenue Agency volunteers in the Kootenays ask for extra copies to provide to individuals because it’s a concise summary.

I regularly receive positive comments from readers who appreciate where they can find information on government initiatives.

The most recent householder provides constituents with information on the Universal Child Care benefit, for example, and the importance of applying, along with other information related to the current budget.

It is important that we keep people informed. Constituents appreciate receiving the information.

David Wilks, MP Kootenay Columbia

Householders

This letter is in response to “Who Paid?” which was submitted to by B.E. Driedger and published on June 11.

I’m very pleased to respond to the letter directed to the Townsman by B.E. Driedger. This information is and always has been public knowledge.

Each Member of Parliament (from all parties) is allocated four “householders” annually to send out to his or her riding. They are paid for by taxpayers, authorized by the House of Commons.

All 308 Members of Parliament from all parties use these publications to communicate with their constituents. Kootenay Columbia residents have been receiving householders for many years from former MPs. Householders have been provided quarterly for at least fifty years.

In these mailings, I regularly provide constituents with information, which is helpful to them.

For example, the tax householder that is sent out early in the year is particularly well

Really, City Hall?

Relaxing last Sunday out on my deck that opens onto the Platzl, sipping a morning drink, I heard, as I was wont to do, a conversation down below in the Platzl which gave me a unique insight as to how councillors actually “promote” Kimberley, and what their thoughts on our town actually are.

The couple the councillor was talking to were from Lethbridge, and they commented how dead it seemed — yes, even on a Sunday morning — and they asked if the town was dying.

They asked about the festivals, and were told that there was only one festival — July Fest. That was it. No First Saturdays. No Kalaidascope festival. No Medieval Festival. No Yoga in the Platzl. Just JulyFest.

He then offered his opinion that the

only way for the town to come back to its glory days was if the mine opened back up, and a big company came back in, bought it, and saved the town.

I’m sorry, city hall, it’s not going to happen. And if that’s why you don’t put any effort into showing what we have, and if that’s why you think we’re merely “a good place to be”, then you are way off the mark. First, until you start treating the small businesses better, and try to help make it easier for them to succeed, no multimillion dollar company will come in and say, “Hey, small businesses are struggling, and city hall doesn’t care about them at all, so I think I’ll come in, buy the mine, and revitalize the town.” It doesn’t work that way.

So wake up and smell the coffee. The mine is NOT coming back, so you’d better start working with what you have. It could be a great place to be, if city hall didn’t keep telling our tourists otherwise. Tell them we’re revitalizing. Tell them that places are selling, but that Sunday mornings are sometimes quiet in our little city in the spring. Small cities can be like that.

Tell them that Kimberley is at least a good place to be — not something that needs to be bought out by a multimillion dollar company to be worthwhile again.

I know that the mayor and city hall have made quite clear that it is the businesses’ responsibility to promote the Platzl, but working against us - that’s a little ridiculous.

The businesses and locals are trying to tell people why Kimberley’s great. Maybe council could, too. Just a thought.

anytime after. Kids receive a special reading record to keep track of their reading. If they complete one whole reading log, they’ll be awarded a special Summer Reading Club medal.

Summer Reading Club motivates kids to read (or be read to) regularly, so it helps to maintain or improve reading skills while school is out. It

makes reading fun by inviting kids to read what they want.

The Summer Reading Club launches on July 7 with a free performance by the Purple Pirate!

Summer Reading Club reaches more than 85,000 B.C. kids every summer. The program is sponsored by the British Columbia Library Associa-

tion, with financial support from Libraries Branch, Ministry of Education and the RBC Foundation.

The pros and cons of ‘first-past-the-post’ THE CANADIAN PRESS

As part of his 32-point plan to “restore democracy,” Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau said Tuesday that if elected, he would create a special, all-party parliamentary committee to study alternatives to the current first-past-the-post (FPTP) electoral system, including ranked ballots, proportional representation, mandatory voting and online voting.

Here are some things to know about first-past-the-post: How does Canada’s FPTP voting system work?

In every riding, the candidate that wins the highest number of votes wins the right to represent that particular seat in the House of Commons. The winner does not need an absolute majority - i.e., more than 50 per cent of the votes cast in the riding.

This is the most common form of voting in the democratic world, including the United States and United Kingdom and the world’s most populous democracy, India.

Why do some people have a problem

with that?

It means many candidates win their seats with less than 50 per cent of the votes.

It also means two people running in different ridings can each earn the same percentage of the vote but one may win while the other does not.

The first-past-the-post system can also encourage what some call tactical voting casting a ballot not for the person you want to vote for, but for the candidate best positioned to defeat the candidate you most dislike.

What is one popular alternative?

It’s called proportional representation, and it would benefit smaller parties that win a respectable share of the overall votes cast in the country, but can’t quite eke out a first-place finish in a particular riding to win an actual seat in the House of Commons.

There are a variety of PR models but the objective is to make a party’s share of seats in the Commons equal to their slice of the popular vote. Generally, PR involves elect-

ing multiple members in each district, with seats assigned according to each party’s share of the vote in that district.

What makes this an issue in Canada?

There are a lot more political parties in Canada than you might think. Elections Canada says there were 18 political parties registered in 2011, down from the all-time high of 19 in 2008. In 1972, just four parties were registered. There was an average of five candidates per riding in the 2011 election, with as few as three and as many as nine in any given riding.

Consequently, dividing up Commons according to each party’s share of the vote would make it more difficult for any one party to amass a majority of seats. Experts suggest first-past-the-post provides for more stability whereas PR would likely result in more coalition governments.

Governing by coalition —when multiple parties come together to pool their resources and form a plurality — is the status quo in a number of countries around the world, most notably Israel.

2015 Gerick Sports Wasa Triathlon another success

Charlie Cooper Photo

The 2015 edition of the Gerick Sports Wasa Triathlon took place June 14, with competitors running, swimming and cycling their way to the finish line through Wasa Lake Provincial Park.

Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor

The 2015 Gerick Sports Wasa Triathlon, held Sunday, June 14, at Wasa Lake Provincial Park, was another resounding success.

Nearly 900 competitors swam, ran and cycled through the provincial park over Olympicand sprint-distance triathlons in search of $4,300 in total prize money.

“We were very lucky with the weather. We had two warm days but not too hot and lots of sunshine,” said event organizer Charlie Cooper Wednesday afternoon.

“That always seems to set the mood.

“From what we saw on Saturday with the TriKids event and Sunday with the adults, was people with a lot of smiles taking in the event and enjoying the weather.

Overall, it was well-received by the athletes.”

Dylan Gillespie beat out 650 adult competitors to claim the overall title at the 2015 Gerick Sports Wasa Triathlon, comfortably conquering the Olympic-distance triathlon in 1:54:54.

Matt Seeley came in on the heels of Gillespie, finishing in 1:58:40, with Alex Martinek rounding out the top three (2:01:24).

Sarah MacArthur was the top-finishing female racer, completing the

Olympic distance in 2:07:48, good enough for an eighth-overall placing and top finish amongst all female competitors.

There were athletes of all ages at the annual event, with competitors ranging in age from mid-teens to mid-70s.

The Olympic triathlon distance features a 1.5-km swim, 40-km cycle and 10-km run.

For the swimming leg of the Olympic triathlon at Wasa, athletes were required to complete one rectangular loop within Horseshoe Bay. From there, the cycling portion of the event ran along Wasa Lake and the Kootenay River towards the Fort Steele.

The sprint triathlon

distance features a 750metre swim, 20-km cycle and five-km run. The track followed a route similar to that of the Olympic triathlon, with the swim in Horseshoe Bay and the cycling portion along Wasa Lake and the Kootenay River.

In addition to the regular running of the triathlon on Sunday, the 2015 Gerick Sports Wasa Triathlon also featured a TriKids Triathlon event Saturday, June 13.

The TriKids Triathlon saw approximately 210 young competitors (aged four to 15) race swim 50 to 300m, cycle 1.5 to 10 km and run 500m to three km.

Cooper has been involved in the organiza-

tion of the annual triathlon since 2001 and over his time, he’s been pleased with the growth he has seen at the event.

“The event has actually been around for close to 25 years. It was around in the ‘80s a little bit and then it came back from 1993 to 1999,” Cooper said. “I’ve led the charges here for the third stint of the event being around.

“In terms of triathlon events in Canada, it’s definitely got a long history and I think it’s been really good to the area.

The last 10 years, we’ve had approximately 60 to 70 per cent of the participants from out of town, Alberta especially. They spend the weekend or

even the whole week hanging out and enjoying the event and everything else we offer here [in the region].”

According to Cooper, the biggest year for the event came in 2012, when approximately 1,300 participants competed (combined between the TriKids and adult Wasa Triathlon).

Approximately 300 volunteers chipped in to help ensure smooth runnings at the 2015 Gerick Sports Wasa Triathlon and Cooper was thankful, in particular for the support of Barb Fode, the director of the TriKids Triathlon.

“We can’t run events without 300 people helping out over the

course of the weekend,” Cooper said. “All those volunteers were amazing. When I get feedback, the number-one comment is how great the volunteers are here at the triathlon, not just by number, but how kind they are to make people feel welcome.”

Cooper also wished to extend his gratitude to the sponsors that help keep the event running successfully from year to year.

There’s no rest for Cooper when it comes to planning and organizing the annual triathlon. Registration for the 2016 Wasa Triathlon is set to open next week.

WHL unveils plans for 50th anniversary season in 2015-16 For The Townsman

VANCOUVER, B.C. – The Western Hockey League concluded its Annual General Meeting Wednesday in Vancouver, highlighted by the announcement of a series of plans and special events associated with the WHL’s upcoming 50th anniversary season.

The WHL was established in the 1966-67 season.

The WHL’s 50th anniversary season will officially open on Thursday, September 24th in Moose Jaw, SK when the Warriors host the Regina Pats. The East Divi-

sion is considered the birthplace of the WHL and Moose Jaw is the home of the first ever WHL championship team. The Moose Jaw Canucks became the first League champions when they defeated the Regina Pats to close the WHL’s inaugural season of 1966-67.

“We are excited to celebrate the rich history of our League next season,” said WHL Commissioner Ron Robison.

“We have been fortunate to have many talented players, excellent teams and exceptional people in the WHL since 1966,

and we truly look forward to honouring these individuals and sharing the story of our League t h ro u g h out our 50th anniversary season.”

T h e WHL also a n nounced that a commemorative 50th anniversary season book will be published which will detail the history of the League as well as its Clubs, builders, players and key members. The

book will be released in September.

Fans will also be able to have their say as the WHL announces its Top 50 Players of A l l -T i m e next season. In addition to a s e l e c t panel of WHL historians, fans can vote to help determine the best players ever to suit up in the WHL. Each week, the WHL will also honour two of its 49 League Championship teams

leading up to the 2016 WHL Playoffs with ‘Championship Tuesdays.’

Each WHL Club will host a game next year to commemorate the WHL’s 50th anniversary season and honour the history of its franchise and alumni.

In addition to further initiatives during the 50th anniversary season to be announced at a later time, the WHL will host a series of CHL special events throughout the course of the year.

The Subway Super Series will begin in Kelowna on Nov. 9 and will

also see Kamloops host game two on Nov. 10.

The 2016 CHL/NHL Top Prospects game will be held in Vancouver on Jan. 28. Finally, the 2016 MasterCard Memorial Cup will see the host

Red Deer Rebels and the 50th WHL Champion battle for the top prize in junior hockey from May 19 to 29 as the event returns to Alberta for the first time in over 40 years.

Canada to face Switzerland at Women’s World Cup C ANADIAN PRESS

TORONTO - Canada will meet Switzerland in the round of 16 at the Women’s World Cup. A tournament official confirmed the matchup Wednesday, the last day of pool play at the 24-country tournament.

As Group A winner, Canada meets the thirdplace finisher from Group C, D, or E on Sunday at B.C. Place Stadium.

That makes for 15 permutations but with the Netherlands, in Group A, and Switzerland, in Group C, guar-

anteed to be two of the four third-place finishers moving on, that reduces the number of permutations to six.

And in every one of those cases, Canada faces Switzerland.

The Swiss (1-2-0) are ranked 19th in the world, compared to No. 8 for Canada (1-0-2).

The Canadian women have played Switzerland four times, with three victories and one draw. Their last meeting was a 2-0 Canada win at the 2013 Cyprus Cup. It’s Switzerland’s first

trip to the World Cup. Coach Martina Voss-Teckleburg’s team lost 1-0 to Japan and 2-1 to Cameroon but thumped Ecuador 10-1.

The Canada-Switzerland winner will meet England or Norway in the quarter-finals.

The Dutch (four points, zero goal differential) and Swiss (three points, plus-seven) are guaranteed of going through because their numbers are better than the third-place finishers in Group B (Thailand, three points, minus-seven) and Group D (Swe-

den, three points, zero).

The top four thirdplace finishers from the six groups advance to the round 16, along with the group winners and runners-up.

The 2015 tournament, expanded to 24 teams from 16, marks only the second time that Canada has advanced out of the group stage in six tries.

The only other time was in 2003 when Canada finished fourth after losing 2-1 to Sweden in the semifinals and 3-1 to the U.S. in the thirdplace game.

commented WHL Commissioner Ron Robison.

“Greg has demonstrated excellence both in hockey and academics.

Working together with our highly-committed WHL Club Education Advisors, Greg will ensure our players continue to achieve their academic goals while playing in the WHL.” Gardner, a WHL graduate, joins the WHL Office after spending the previous two seasons playing for the ECHL’s Colorado Eagles. From 2008-13, Gardner attended the University of Alberta where he utilized his WHL Scholarship and was a key member of the Golden Bears, captaining the team in his final two seasons.

Gardner holds the Cougars’ franchise record for games played, captained the Club in his final season and was named the Club’s Scholastic Player of the Year for 2003-04.

Tim Booth Associated Press

UNIVERSITY PLACE, Wash. - When Chambers Bay first opened, one of promotional tags for the course was the opportunity to play, “Pure Links Golf.”

It made perfect sense.

The course sat on the edge of a large body of water, was made entirely of fescue grass and had just one tree on the property.

Lumping Chambers Bay into the category of a links golf course has become common leading up to the U.S. Open.

Even the No. 1 player in the world, Rory McIlroy, said this week that Chambers Bay “plays more like a links course than some links courses.” It was a catchy statement that was later backed up by a similar opinion from 2010 U.S. Open champion Graeme McDowell.

There’s just one problem. While it’s an easy label for Chambers Bay, it’s technically not true.

Yes, it’s got links properties, but it is a modern take on the traditional definition.

“The word ‘links’ has a very, very strict meaning, for those of our brethren across the pond,” said Chambers Bay course designer Robert Trent Jones Jr. “For them, a links has to be near or on the sea, near an estuary, sandy landscape with fescue grasses and no trees.”

While the one tree sitting on the Chambers Bay property never comes into play - towering next to the 16th tee it’s other features, while unique to golf in the United States, keep it from holding that links definition.

It can be perplexing.

So before the first round tees off on Thursday, here’s a breakdown of why Chambers Bay is getting that label and why it’s not exactly accurate.

Why it’s being called links:

GRASS: Chambers Bay was built entirely with fine fescue, on the tee boxes, the fairways and most notably, the putting surfaces. The grass is most prevalent in maritime climates and while it goes dormant for segments of the year, the grass rarely dies.

Chambers Bay is the first U.S. Open to be played with fine fescue as the primary grass on the putting surfaces, rather than the typical bent grass or poa annua.

The only way to tell the difference between fairways and greens will be white dots delineating where the greens start.

“They’re definitely not the prettiest greens in the world, but no fescue greens are that pretty. But it actually rolls a lot better than it looks,” Ryan Moore said.

SAND: Before it was a golf course, the property was a sand and gravel quarry that eventually became a giant sandbox for course designers.

There could not have been a better subsurface to construct a links-style golf course that used fine fescue grass. Many of the sandy blowout areas still contain some of the original gravel mined from the site when it was a working quarry.

LOCATION: Links courses, by nature, are generally situated where the water meets the land.

And here’s why Chambers Bay doesn’t meet the definition of a links course: ELEVATION: This factor distinctly separates Chambers Bay. Links courses are built on flatter dunes with mounding in places, but no major elevation changes. Chambers Bay is full of ups-and-downs, including elevated tee shots on Nos. 5, 9 and 14, and the uphill, rising shots needed to play holes Nos. 4, 7, 12 and 13. From the top tee on the par 3 ninth, the drop from tee to green is more than 100 feet.

Napoleon met his Waterloo 200 years ago … and the world became Britain’s oyster R af C asert Associated Press

WATERLOO, Belgium - To the victor go the spoils: So Waterloo became synonymous with Napoleon’s demise, even if the worst of the battle never happened there.

Ignoring the bloodied grounds of nearby towns, the victorious Duke of Wellington picked the name of the battle as the place where he slept after it was all over. And nothing has been the same since for the once-sleepy village or for the world.

Prince Charles led a host of dignitaries Wednesday to kick off four days of commemorations Wednesday of the battle that changed the course of history 200 years ago Thursday. Napoleon’s defeat in the half-day battle against an overwhelming international coalition ended France’s supremacy in the world and opened the British century with the biggest of bangs.

Little wonder the French are still gnashing their teeth two centuries later. “It is not easy for them - psychologically speaking,” said military historian Professor Luc De Vos. Earlier this year, the Belgians wanted to mint a commemorative Battle of Waterloo euro coin which many of the belligerents in the fight now share. Paris blocked the idea.

Belgium promptly turned them into commemorative coins that do not need approval from other eurozone nations before minting.

But France’s bruised ego over Waterloo has healed somewhat. Descendants of Napoleon and the French ambassador will show up during the four days of Waterloo commemorations just south of Brussels.

On the battlegrounds themselves, kept intact down to the lush wheat that stands near full ripeness this time of year, everything has

been prepared for official ceremonies and re-enactments.

At the heart of the battle was the pivotal French assault on Hougoumont Farm, on whose wooden gate, in the Duke of Wellington’s words, the outcome of the entire world hinged.

“Wellington was clear about the critical importance of this moment” said British general Sir Richard Shirreff.

“The success of the battle of Waterloo depended on closing the gates of Hougoumont.”

It remained closed at the critical point and once the smoke of battle lifted, France’s Grande Armee was in retreat and 26 years of Napoleonic warfare to unite Europe under French rule had ended.

On the small battlefield, over 10,000 soldiers lay dead - and as many horses.

On Wednesday, Prince Charles unveiled a memorial at the lovingly restored Hougoumont farm and surveyed the battlefield with the descendants of the troop leaders - the Duke of Wellington and Prince Charles Bonaparte of France.

Through Saturday, some 5,000 re-enactors will roll the drums, fire the guns and cannons and walk through the gunpowder smoke, only to come to the same result: Napoleon lost.

Napoleon “was 46, but in bad health. Wellington was fit. His staff was not functioning well. There was hesitation. At the end of the battle, he only had 70,000 men and his opponents had nearly double,” said De Vos. So off went Napoleon, eventually to die in exile in Saint Helena, a speck of an island in the south Atlantic.

Instead of France, Britain came to rule the waves of the 19th century, reaping a rich harvest in colonies around the globe and firing the furnaces of the industrial revolution in Europe.

LNG INVESTMENT DECISION...

With

MLA,

Bill Bennett

1

Petronus, a Malaysian-led consortium is the first LNG proponent to say yes to constructing an LNG facility in NW BC. The investment is $36 billion, the largest single investment in BC’s history.

Sign, sign, everywhere a sign Blockin’ out the scenery, breakin’ my mind Do this, don’t do that, can’t you read the sign?

BC CHAMBER of COMMERCE KEY ISSUE

REGULATION

2

The company’s final decision is based on the BC Government’s commitment to support the creation of this exciting new industry, despite opposition from the NDP to the extraction of natural gas in NE BC. Without gas extraction, we cannot have an LNG industry.

3

The Petronus decision is conditional (1) on the Province approving the agreement between BC and the company and (2) on the Government of Canada providing approval for the project. This one LNG project represents thousands of jobs and huge tax revenues to the Province.

Red tape remains a significant burden for B.C. businesses – particularly small businesses.

The Issue: In response to BC Chamber recommendations, the provincial government has made significant progress in reducing the number of provincial regulations.

Despite these positive efforts, the regulatory burden in B.C. continues to be a challenge for business, and in particular, small business.

Too frequently, government at all levels makes regulations without considering the total cost to business of compliance.

The next evolution in regulatory reform must be to shift towards a cost-benefit analysis rather than a focus on a simple numeric reduction.

Of particular concern to Chamber members is the increasing regulatory burden being imposed by local and regional governments.

Our Goal: The BC Chamber’s goal is to reduce, in a responsible manner, the cumulative regulatory burden that adversely impacts B.C.’s competitiveness.

Further, the Chamber’s goal is to work with the provincial, municipal and regional governments to instill a culture of regulatory efficiency.

We Recommend: The BC Chamber recommends that the provincial government:

• develop a mechanism for providing qualitative analysis of the impact of regulations on business, and small business in particular; • ensure that all departments continue to focus on reducing their regulatory burden on business; and • work with municipalities and regional governments to adopt the principles of the BC Small Business Accord.

“Signs” is a song by the relatively unknown Canadian rock group Five Man Electrical Band. Released in the early 70’s in an era of protest songs and mind altering self-importance. “The man” was the wrath of the protest and “the man’s” signs the focus of the discontent.

I am writing a protest song for this era.

Signs, signs, take down your signs, If you move your business take down your old sign, If your tenant moves out take down the old sign Do this, don’t do that, but don’t leave up an old sign The cadence is not good and it really does not rhyme but the protest message is clear.

If you move your business the last thing you want is your old sign hanging outside an empty premise. I know with my eyes that passing by at 50 kmh it is really hard to read the now yellowing piece of paper you hung in the window that says as of many months ago we have moved to x location. A more logical conclusion to the casual observer is that you are no longer in business.

If you are a landlord it makes sense to not have the signage of a shuttered or moved business still hanging on your building. The message is “here lies the bones of another failed business” or “they found somewhere better and moved.”

On my way to work the day after Target closed I noted workers taking down all the exterior Target signs and branding. The store was not even emptied out and the visual presence of Target was gone. I am not sure if it was Target of the management of the Tamarack Centre but good on them.

Businesses close and move all the time. It is not a bad thing. It is just a sign of the times. Don’t let an old sign define your business or building’s future.

STAND UP FOR TOURISM Hendrik Brakel, Senior Director of Economic, Financial and Tax Policy, Canadian Chamber of Commerce Canada’s economy shrank by 0.6% in the first quarter. With a weak domestic economy, Canadian business increasingly needs to look for opportunities in international markets.

Wouldn’t it be great if we could turn things around by getting foreigners to come spend money here in Canada?

That’s why tourism is one of the top priorities of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce. Thank goodness tourism is also Canada’s second largest export industry, and it is gaining strength. It also benefits restaurants, retailers and so many more companies that don’t, or can’t, export.

Tourism is a huge industry, larger than agriculture or the auto sector. It supports 170,000 small- and medium-sized businesses across the country, contributes over $88 billion to the Canadian economy and generates over 627,000 jobs.

But what comes next? How can we continue to develop this sector to further develop our economy? To find out more, use the hashtag #StandUpForTourism.

WIN FOR BUSINESS!

Soap Box

Trade ministers commit to breaking down the barriers to internal trade

By David D. Hull, Executive Director Everyone likes to be liked. Lesson one of your David D. Hull psychology 101 course or the first days of school. With the exception of the occasional delusional dictator or deranged despot, most folks would prefer to be liked than loathed and despised.

The quintessential oxymoron to that premise is politics. So many people enter politics, at all levels, looking to be liked and popular.

“I received more votes than anyone else, people must like me.” If the election were for homecoming queen and all you had to do after the polls closed was sit around and look pretty the theory would hold true.

Popular politicians, constantly loved and revered by all, and good governance are mutually exclusive. In politics you cannot please all the people all the time. You cannot please all the people some of the time. In fact you will please very few people any of the time.

I was a city councillor for 12 years. Being a bit thick skinned (some said just thick) I could handle criticism, reference to my intelligence, condemnation of my upbringing, and tax payers questioning my “recreational activities” in the mid 70’s and the lingering effects.

I have always maintained that often the right decision is not the most popular. If you try to please everyone, you will please no one.

There is a direct correlation in the hard decision - popularity scale when it comes to being a political leader. The tougher the correct decision the smaller the number of happy taxpayers.

I have always liked the quote by Theodore Hesburgh: “My basic principle is that you don’t make decisions because they are easy; you don’t make them because they are cheap; you don’t make them because they’re popular; you make them because they’re right.”

The City, the Province, and the Country will run just fine in the short and medium term without politicians. It is the work of their predecessors that is being implemented.

An empowered bureaucracy is more than capable of running the government day to day, month to month and probably even year to year for a while. Politicians need not worry about the here and now but about their grandchildren.

A tough decision case in point: The Harmonized Sales Tax in British Columbia.

Now there was a tough decision. A huge fundamental change in consumption taxation is a major policy shift and it was

The right decision is not always the most popular.

bound to rile up the public.

The BC Chamber of Commerce, and all other major business and industry sector organizations (with the exception of restaurants) have been calling for a PST/ GST harmonization for years. The business community was convinced that once the initial implementation pains had passed the overall benefits would become apparent for the entirety of BC. In the interim the uprising and calling for Premier Gordon Campbell’s job, head on a stick, and other unmentionable afflictions, continued to add fuel to a fire that was already burning brighter than a thousand suns. The right decision is not always the most popular.

Gordon Campbell surprised most everyone,

business leaders, political supporters, the media, and possibly even a large number of Liberal MLA’s with his HST announcement.

I am confident untold tomes of thesis will be written in political science classes on how not to implement an unpopular policy much less one to do with taxes.

Guillaum Dubreuil – Director, Public Affairs and Media Relations at The Canadian Chamber of Commerce

However clumsy the implementation this was still a classic case of tough decisions being made by folks willing to make them, even if they are unpopular. I will take the bold and brave any day over the wishy washy fence sitters too afraid of someone not liking them.

Here at the Canadian Chamber, we welcomed the announcement with enthusiasm as we have been pushing for the dismantling of internal trade barriers for years; this issue has also been part of our list of the Top 10 Barriers to Competitiveness since 2013.

Mr. Campbell’s popularity dropped quicker than an airliner into the Hudson River after a bird strike. I am confident that at the Legislative Assembly picnic that year Mr. Campbell was picked last for the softball teams, but I think he was ok with that.

These days we are in a continual state of election campaigning given the spacing of municipal, provincial and federal elections now (supposedly) on fixed dates and the trend to campaigning many many months before the writ is dropped. The thought of entering politics is running through many heads constantly.

This new agreement is the first step towards breaking down a significant barrier, leading to a more competitive and eventually a more prosperous Canada.

As part of the Business Alliance, composed of the country’s top business associations, we called for a domestic trade deal as ambitious and as comprehensive as any trade agreement with another country. The agreement should enhance regulatory cooperation among jurisdictions, provide for mutual recognition of goods and services and ensure an effective and efficient dispute resolution mechanism.

We look forward to contributing to the next steps in the reform process.

On June 9, Canada’s provincial, territorial and federal trade ministers announced that they are committed to renegotiating an internal trade deal by March 2016.

For folks thinking of throwing their hat onto the ballot rack in the future please do not be looking for personal affirmation, popularity, and reassurance. If you are elected please be prepared to have the courage to do the right thing even if it makes you unpopular.

Be determined to dictate the future not the outcome of the next trip to the polls. It is better to have the courage to light a candle than to sit there and curse the darkness.

So why, oh why, do folks get into politics looking for friends and acceptance at the expense of making the right and tough decisions? Politics at the local, provincial, and federal level is about making big picture decisions. Providing leadership and vision for the future. Making the tough decisions today for the betterment of tomorrow.

Worker accused of helping inmates escape discussed murder-for-hire Associated Press

A prison worker charged with helping two convicted murderers escape from a maximum-security facility had discussed with them a murder-for-hire plot involving her husband, a district attorney confirmed Wednesday.

Clinton County District Attorney Andrew Wylie said at a news conference that Joyce Mitchell talked to inmates Richard Matt and David Sweat about the possibility of them killing her husband, Lyle.

Both Joyce Mitchell and Lyle Mitchell work

at the Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora.

Meanwhile, state police expanded the search for the killers beyond a 16-square-mile area of woods, fields and swamps where the manhunt has been most intense.

Officials said the number of law enforcement officers involved in the search had been reduced from more than 800 earlier in the week to more than 600 Wednesday. Roadblocks along the road leading into Dannemora had been removed while more

roving patrols were added in the area around the prison, officials said.

Sweat and Matt escaped June 6 from the 170-year-old prison near the Canadian border.

Sweat, 35, was serving a life sentence without parole in the killing

of a sheriff’s deputy.

Matt, 48, was doing 25 years to life for the kidnap, torture and hacksaw dismemberment of his former boss.

Joyce Mitchell is charged with helping the killers flee by providing them with hacksaw blades, chisels and other

Donald Trump for president: a ‘gift from the comedy gods’ David Bauder Associated Press

NEW YORK - He doesn’t need the money, but if Donald Trump’s presidential campaign falters, late-night comics would surely pass the hat to keep it going.

An animated Jon Stewart looked like he was second-guessing his decision to step away from “The Daily Show” in the wake of Trump’s declaration Tuesday. Stephen Colbert’s “Late Show” hasn’t started yet, but he couldn’t resist releasing a video. Seth Meyers pumped his fist in glee. And Larry Wilmore regarded Trump’s announcement as a literal gift from the comedy gods.

“I’ve got a show and Trump’s running for president,” said Wilmore, of Comedy Central’s “Nightly Show.” ”Good news for me, horrible

news for our writers. Because all of the jokes are officially writing themselves.“ He ran a clip reel of highlights from Trump’s speech, while contentedly munching on a steak dinner.

Stewart acted like a child waiting for dessert as he ran through video of campaign announcements by Hillary Clinton and Jeb Bush. Finally, he showed a clip of Trump riding an escalator down to where he made his presidential announcement.

“Hey, only losers walk,” Stewart said in a mocking New Yawk accent. What followed, he said, “was over a half-hour of the most beautifully ridiculous jibber-jabber ever to pour forth from the mouth” of a billionaire.

“It’s amazing!” he said.

“America’s id is running for president.”

BIKE • HIKE • RUN!

N U D O R the

Stewart said following Trump promises to make his last six weeks on “The Daily Show” terrific.

“He is putting me in some kind of comedy hospice, where all you’re getting is straight morphine,” he said.

Jimmy Fallon had Jeb Bush as a “Tonight Show” guest a day after the former Florida governor announced his presidential candidacy, but it was Trump who dominated the comic’s monologue. Fallon joked that he was going to have Trump on, “but the last time we checked he was still giving his speech.”

He said Trump would be the country’s first “Mad Libs” president. “I think Gary Busey wrote that speech,” Fallon said.

The other Jimmy, ABC’s Kimmel, said Trump would be like a “president and an

amusement park all rolled up into one.”

NBC’s Meyers said that “in a speech cobbled together from forwarded emails from your uncle, he let us know what he thought that America needed.”

Colbert doesn’t begin on CBS until September, but he’s been posting occasional comic videos online. His latest video showed him at a podium making an announcement of his own, his hair teased into a bad combover to echo Trump’s and speaking the same rough, outer-borough accent.

In his announcement that he’s still coming to CBS Colbert nailed the rambling, surrealistic quality of Trump’s talk, including the unexpected, and seemingly annoying to the candidate, musical interludes. He touched on

Trump’s emphasis on the Chinese “eating our lunch” in global competition.

“I don’t want to eat their lunch,” he said. “I’ve seen their lunch. Does it come with egg rolls? This administration is doing nothing to find out.”

He announced his wife was backstage having a drink and, prompted by an audience member, he performed a card trick.

Conan O’Brien on TBS joked that Trump’s announcement “traditionally means six more weeks of comedy.”

“Here’s the sad news,” O’Brien said. “Season 15 of ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ will not air. But not to worry. With Trump running for president, you’ll still get to see an irrelevant B-list celebrity not get a job.”

tools. She was visited in jail Tuesday by her husband.

Prosecutors say Mitchell, a prison tailoring shop instructor who befriended the inmates, had agreed to be the getaway driver but backed out because she still loved her husband and felt guilty for participating.

Joyce Mitchell was charged last week with supplying contraband, including a punch and a screwdriver, to the two inmates. She has pleaded not guilty. She has been suspended without pay from her $57,000-a-year job overseeing inmates who sew clothes and learn to repair sewing machines.

Authorities say the convicts used power tools to cut through the backs of their adjacent cells, broke through a brick wall and then cut into a steam pipe and slithered through it, finally emerging outside the prison walls through a manhole. Wylie says they apparently used tools stored by prison contractors, taking care to return them to their toolboxes after each night’s work.

HOROSCOPES

by Jacqueline Bigar

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You might wake up on the wrong side of the bed. Your mood is likely to put several people off until you are able to get centered. Take a walk by water or listen to water trickling off a fountain. Later in the day, a partner could be somewhat standoffish. Tonight: Head home.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You’ll gain unusual insight through your dreams, but you might not even realize it. If you look at what is occurring around a friendship, you’ll gain more awareness. A partner could be unusually difficult or touchy.

Maintain a healthy distance.

Tonight: Out and about.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Be aware of the costs of proceeding as you have been. You need to hold yourself accountable. Remain in touch with a friend who tends to shake up the status quo. You like the excitement that enters your life when he or she is around. Tonight: Your

treat.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) An older relative, friend or boss could alter your plans quite a bit.

This person also might force you to take a hard look at a situation that is often on your mind. A child or loved one seems to need to hold back. Don’t interfere with this process. Tonight: Let off some steam.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Know when to rein in your magnetic personality. Try to be a wallflower. You might be interested in a new activity that you had not noticed up till now.

Tap into your creativity to find helpful solutions. Tonight: Try to avoid being around a depressing person.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Zero in on your priorities; some are more important than others.

Don’t let someone rain on your parade. Your perspective will change once you start asking questions about where this person is coming from. Have an intellectual conversation. Tonight: Where your friends are.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Tundra

Someone you need to respond to might shock you with his or her behavior. Let it go, but keep this situation in your memory, as you might want to revisit it at a later date. Your intuition will lead you down the right path.

Be careful with money commitments. Tonight: Out and about.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You might seem somewhat stuffy to others, but you know that you are making a difference where it counts. Are you pushing too hard to have your way? Let go for now, and detach from the situation. You will see matters differently as a result. Tonight: Think “weekend.”

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might want to see a situation differently. Your ability to get past a problem allows you to go with the flow. Don’t get too upset by what is happening, and don’t lose focus. As a result, your ability to move through a problem will be enhanced. Tonight: Be friendly.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Others seem rather cold right now. Someone might say

something that causes you to be upset. Be flexible; you can’t change what is happening. You have an unusual sense of humor, but it probably won’t work on a friend who is singing the blues.

Tonight: Just don’t be alone.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Do what is needed to make you happier and feel more in touch with your needs and desires.

Sometimes you give so much of yourself that you don’t even realize how drained you are.

A superior could demand a lot from you. Tonight: Till the wee hours.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) A financial matter could upset you and force your hand. How you deal with someone will change radically if you tap into your creativity. As a result, you’ll find others to be more flexible.

Trust your judgment. Tonight: Let a loved one know your expectations.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: Recently, I insisted a dear friend move into my home so I could help him after he was diagnosed with a brain tumor. After a lengthy surgery, doctors managed to remove it. Two weeks later, I took him to a rustic cabin retreat so he could rest.

The morning we were to leave for home, I woke up and went to open the front door, but it was blocked.

Apparently, my friend had gone out earlier, tripped and hit his head, and had died in front of the door.

Since then, I haven’t been able to eat or sleep. I don’t know where to turn and am about to have a breakdown. I can’t afford therapy. Do you have any advice? -- Devastated in Ohio Dear Ohio: We are so sorry for your heartbreaking loss. You thought your friend would be OK and weren’t prepared for his sudden death. Please know that you are not at all responsible for what happened. It may even be that the treatment of his tumor affected his balance or visual focus, contributing to his tripping and falling.

Counseling will help you come to terms with this, and it doesn’t need to be costly. Check at the hospital where your friend was treated and ask whether they offer grief counseling. You also can discuss this with your clergyperson.

Dear Annie: It is summertime again, so I thought I would put in my two cents on what I want friends and relatives to be aware of when they come to my house to swim. Because I’m the one with the pool, I am often expected to host our family and friends, which is fine. I enjoy it. But people don’t realize how much work it takes to make it ready to use. Here are my suggestions: 1. Don’t show up early. Come at the time suggested.

2. Please bring two towels per person.

You use one towel each time you get out of the pool, and when it’s wet, you borrow one of mine. Most of the time, I never see that towel again. Bring a spare.

3. Remember to take all your stuff home with you and please label everything you bring. I don’t know which goggles, towels, shirts or sunscreen are yours when you come back a week later looking for them.

4. If you bring food to one of my pool parties, bring enough to share. And if you want to contribute to the meal I make, bring something substantial. I resent spending $75 on meat and you show up with a bag of chips. And bring drinks and ice. If there are leftovers, take them with you. I can’t store everything.

5. Watch your kids. I’m trying to cook, carry on a conversation, maybe swim a bit, and your precious child is running circles around the pool. Don’t expect me to keep an eye on the kids, too. Have them obey my pool rules. They’re for everyone’s safety.

There are probably more things, but that’s enough to make me feel better for now. -- Swimming Along

Dear Swimming: Everyone has different expectations for their pool guests, but your rules are sensible, especially the last one. Thanks for writing.

1901 Bicycle vs. Horse ...

As an outcome of an ar-

gument held at the club one evening last week, in which several local sports were mixed up, a race will in all probability be arranged from Cranbrook to Fort Steele, between a horse

Chocolate Beet Pie Recipe By: Dr. Darcie Pawlick BSc, ND It may seem like an odd combination but trust me when you try this pie you will want more. Made with coconut oil, almonds, beets, and cacao powder – this pie is packed full of nutrients.

You won’t believe that it is gluten, dairy and refined sugar free.

If you have a food processor, Vita mix or a blender this pie can be prepared pretty quickly. It is great on its own or served with coconut whipped cream.

Ingredients: Crust -2 cups raw almonds ground in a food processor -1/4 cup arrowroot powder -1/4 cup coconut sugar -1/4 cup melted coconut oil + some for greasing the pie plate -1 tsp vanilla -1/4 tsp sea salt -1 tbsp of water Pie -1 1/2 to 2 cups shredded beets (3-4 medium beets) -1/2 cup 100% maple syrup -2 local eggs -1/2 cup melted coconut oil -1 tbsp of 100% vanilla -1/4 cup almond or organic soy milk + extra for brushing crust -1/2 cup raw cacao powder -1/4 tsp sea salt Coconut Whipped Cream (optional) -1 can of organic coconut milk that has been in the fridge overnight -preferably Native Forest as it has no BPA in the can lining -1 tbsp of local honey (Recipe found at: www.roots-to-health.com – search “Coconut Whipped Cream”).

Preparation instructions 1. Preheat oven 350 F and grease a 9 inch pie plate with coconut oil.

2. Grind almonds in food processor to a fine powder.

3. Add the rest of the crust ingredients to food processor and pulse to mix. If the mixture seems too dry add an extra tbsp of water but 1 tbsp is usually enough.

4. Push mixture into pie plate and set aside.

5. Shred beets in a food processor or coarsely chop. Pour into a measuring cup to ensure desired amount. If you want the cake to have a stronger beet flavour add 2 cups if you want it a bit milder add 1 1/2 cups or less.

6. Add beets and maple syrup to food processor or blender and mix until smooth.

7. Add all other ingredients, blend until smooth and pour into pie crust.

8. Pour a small amount of almond milk or soy milk in a bowl and use a pastry brush to brush down the outside of the pie crust with the milk. This prevents it from burning during baking.

9. Bake for 35-45 minutes until the center is cooked and pie doesn’t jiggle anymore. While in the oven make optional coconut whipped cream. Let cool completely and serve on its own or with a dollop of coconut whipped cream. Enjoy!

Live Life Well.

and a bicycle, to demonstrate which can make the better time. Quite a sum of money may change hands on the result of the race, the backers being about evenly divided as to their favorites. The distance is twelve miles, but there are several medium sized hills to be encountered, and should the contest take place it will be a warm one, with the odds about even. It is said that Hyde Baker will ride the horse, while M. A. Beale will be the artist on the wheel. The distance must be made in less than one hour.

Two old timers ...

Fred Kanouse, of Fernie, was a visitor in Cranbrook Saturday. Mr. Kanouse is an old timer in the northwest, and when he and Baldy Morris get together and begin talking about the times they used to have in Macleod twenty-five or thirty years ago it isn’t long before they are the center of a very appreciative audience, while the stories they tell are almost as good as a circus.

Picnic at Marysville ... The picnic which was to have been given under the auspices of the Sunday school of the English church, last Thursday, was postponed on account of the inclemency of the weather, and will be given Saturday. The picnic will be held at the falls on Mark creek near Marysville, and promises to be an enjoyable affair, as it is but a short distance by rail from

Cranbrook, and the scenery around Marysville is noted for its beauty. No better picnic grounds could be obtained, and a large crowd will undoubtedly go from Cranbrook.

Moyie water works ... G. H. Miner left for Moyie Tuesday evening, where he will inaugurate the work of laying the pipe for the Moyie Waterworks Company, for which he has the contract. The pipe, which was supplied by Mr. Miner arrived this week, and was forwarded to Moyie Tuesday.

There will be twelve hydrants distributed over the town, which will be a most valuable feature in case of fire, and the citizens of Moyie are to be congratulated upon this most important improvement.

Editorial … The citizens of Moyie are jubilant over the fact that their waterworks plant will soon be in working order. We can’t possibly see what particular use the citizens of that town have for water.

We look good …

Cranbrook today has more fine houses, more nicely painted houses, more well-kept premises, more sidewalks and more evidence of prosperity than any town of its size in British Columbia.

Very punny … The sign board in front of Hutch’s bore the following, last Monday: “Mrs. Carrie Nation will arrive in town at 4 p. m. Get your axe ground, and your axident insurance.”

used an axe on the perpetrator of this punk pun.

Good chances …

The local horsemen are seriously thinking of taking their horses to Calgary, to enter in the races there on Dominion Day, as the purses are very liberal ones, and they think their chances for landing some of the money is pretty good.

Methodist social …

The ice cream social at the Methodist church last Wednesday evening was a success both socially and financially. A musical and literary program was rendered, and the Ladies’ Aid cleared something over $30.

1902 Baseball … The first game of baseball on the home grounds this season was played on Saturday afternoon between Elko and Cranbrook, the latter winning by a score of 8 to 7.

While the day was an ideal one for baseball the attendance was light but the spectators made up in enthusiasm what they lacked in numbers. The game was close throughout and, while both teams lacked practice and made a number of costly errors, they put up a class of ball that gave eminent satisfaction to the spectators and furnished more excitement than has been seen on the Athletic grounds before this season. Before the game was called the admirers of the home team felt a little dubious regarding the result as the Elko boys were a pretty husky looking lot of chaps and as Jamieson, Cranbrook’s only pitcher, had never been tried out it was not known what he could do in a pinch, but the result proved an agreeable surprise to all, the “kid” striking out sixteen men and giving but two bases on balls, while Burns, the southpaw twirler from Elko, secured but nine strikeouts and walked five men to first. Although they did not win, the

Elks proved themselves thorough sportsmen, taking their defeat gracefully and departing with the best of feelings toward Cranbrookites.

Fernie relief fund …

During the past two weeks a number of the towns in West Kootenay have been holding athletic sports, the proceeds of the games being turned in to the Fernie relief fund, and in this way a very tidy sum has been raised for the relief of the sufferers.

The experiment will be tried in Cranbrook Friday night, and arrangements have been made for a lacrosse match, to be played between the Cranbrook Lacrosse club and the Cranbrook Football team. The members of the two teams are very enthusiastic over the coming game, and while the lacrosse boys will have the advantage of their superior knowledge of the game, Captain Watt of the pig skin aggregation, has gathered around him a husky lot of fellows, and as they comprise the best talent in town, outside of the regular team, a very exciting exhibition of the national game is promised.

This game should receive the support of every person in town who can possibly attend, for aside from the fact that a good evening’s sport is assured, the proceeds will be used in a most praiseworthy cause, and will give many who have not already done so, the opportunity to contribute their mite toward relieving the widows and orphans of the recent disaster in the Fernie mines. The band will be in attendance, and the game will start promptly at 7:15. The admission price is only two bits, and it will be a golden opportunity to do a little missionary work at home, and should be taken advantage of by every person in Cranbrook.

Excuse for a poor paper … We are up against it. The Old Man has not yet returned from the coast and has

failed to furnish us with any copy. The “right bower” sprained his knee at the baseball game and is hors de combat. The “left bower” couldn’t discover a news item with a search warrant.

“Mooch” has deserted his post and gone to Marysville on a protracted spree. Our supply of stock editorials has given out. Some kleptomaniac has absconded with our shears. The paste has soured and the “devil” has been so busy with Bible lessons that he has failed to turn in the usual grist of church items. As a result this issue of The Herald will be rather punk. But don’t be discouraged, we’re not, for the Old Man will be home soon and the chances are that he will liven us up to a certain extent, and the good things he will have to say in regard to his trip will more than make up to The Herald readers for our shortcomings this week.

You make the choice … Owing to the Coronation festivities, and as a mark of respect to His Majesty King Edward, His Holiness Pope Leo has granted a special dispensation to all the Roman Catholics of the British Empire making it optional for them to observe Friday and Saturday, June 27 and 28, as days of abstinence from flesh meat.

Railway up the valley ... (Marysville Tribune) The Tribune hears from good authority that construction on the proposed railway up the St. Marys River will be commenced next year without fail. This will be a great boom to the country in general and something for the citizens of Marysville to look forward to as our town will without a doubt be the base of supplies and headquarters for construction.

Roundup … G. Belanger, J. Bell and Joe Lindsay of Marysville, visited town Monday on their way to Skookumchuck, where they will round up a bunch of wild horses.

Ona Mae Smith March 1, 1920 June 22, 2012.

God saw you getting tired, and a cure was not to be. So He put His arms around you and whispered, “Come with me.” With tearful eyes we watched you, we watched you fade away. Although we loved you dearly; we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands now rest, God broke our hearts to prove to us, he only takes the best.

We miss you very much. Lovingly - Earl, Fern, Nancy, Faye, Howard, Connie, Jean, and families and friends.

Obituaries Dr. Benjamin Wright Gibson

In Memory

Alan Joseph Fabro

Dr. Benjamin Wright Gibson III died peacefully in the ICU Ward of the East Kootenay Regional Hospital on June 12th, 2015 in Cranbrook, British Columbia at the age of 70. He is survived by his sisters Judy, Margaret Ann, and Jean, and his children Ben, Matt, Rachel, and Brieanna.

Ben was born in Atlanta Georgia to Rachel and Benjamin Wright Gibson II. He graduated from University of Tennessee Dental School in 1975 with a degree in Dentistry before moving to Cranbrook, British Columbia. He was married and divorced twice and worked for over 30 years as a dentist.

No one has determined whether those two things were related.

Later in his career he pursued a masters degree in Forensic Anthropology at the University of Idaho and worked with several organizations, such as the RCMP, the Pacific Forensic Odontology Seminar, and the FBI as a forensics expert on numerous cases, including at ground zero after the 9/11 attack. He felt that CSI depicts of the forensics industry about as realistically as the Lion King depicts life on the African savannah.

Ben was an avid skier, hunter, and lover of the outdoors -- a passion which he passed on to all of his children.

He was well liked by many people in the community and by his former patients, except maybe those who needed root canals. He’s sorry about that.

As he neared the end of his life, Ben looked at death philosophically and took comfort in the words of Mark Twain: “I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it.”

Alma Marie Amy December 29, 1934 – June 2, 2015 We are all at peace knowing Mom has won her battle with dementia and has found her memories once again!

At the age of nine, Alma moved from her birthplace of Marceline, Saskatchewan with her parents Joe and Colette Sanche and her siblings to settle in Kimberley. Here she met and married Keith where they raised their five children.

Alma enjoyed knitting, crocheting and gardening.

All of the family were supplied with her hand towels and dishcloths for many years. In her later years she enjoyed travelling with Bill and they did many trips together. Alma was preceded in death by her husband of 42 years, Keith; sisters Irene and Muriel and in-laws, Linda, Mary, Wally and Nils.

Alma is survived by her children Deb (Bill), Denise (Wink), Kevin (Dorothy), Shane (Marilyn) and Jim (Joanne), 13 grandchildren and 13 great grandchildren. Also her special friend, Bill Goudie (Sean and Lezlie and families); sisters Lillian Nordby and Annette Shumanski and brothers Leo, Gabe (Donna), Ray (Lynda) and Dale (Gayle). The family would like to thank Dr. DuPreez and the wonderful staff of The Pines for their care and love!

A Celebration of her life will take place at the Eagles Hall, Friday, June 19th, from 2:00 to 4:00 P.M. In lieu of flowers, donation in memory can be made to the Alzheimer’s Society of B.C., 300-828th Ave., West Vancouver, B.C., V5Z 9Z9.

A Luncheon Celebration will be held on Friday, June 26, 2015 from 11:30 am to 2:00 pm at 442 – 301st Street, Marysville, BC. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the Kimberley Special Care Home or a charity of your choice. Condolences may be left for the family at www.markmemorial.com

Della’s ashes will be laid to rest in the Fort Steele Cemetery at a later date.

How do you capture in words the life of a man who lived so profoundly; a man who could measure his life by richness in relationships he formed with those he met, even if only for a brief moment.

It is with deep sorrow we announce the passing of ALAN JOSEPH FABRO, on Thursday June 11th 2015, after a courageous three year battle with Metastatic Colon Cancer. Rightly so, this devoted husband and loving father took his final breath while in the presence of family.

Alan fought his cancer with unwavering strength. He never complained nor felt sorry for himself. For Alan, the past three years were a time to be thankful for all of the blessings in his life and to say goodbye to those he held so dearly. Shortly after Alan was diagnosed he wrote the following passage in his journal: I will look at this ‘thug’ named cancer and stare him straight in the eye.

I will not blink.

He may take my life, but NOT my spirit!

Alan was a true man of the moment. He loved life and had so many joys. In his passing he did not want us to speak of his accomplishments whether in sport or business, despite there being many to speak of. His successes in life were never the intention; they were the by-product of living a life of action, taking risks and living each moment to its fullest. Alan’s greatest accomplishments were his family and the relationships he developed with those around him.

Near the end of his journey Alan reflected back on some of the highlights of his life: · He was born and raised in Kimberley, B.C.; a mining town of hard working people; a town of closeness and character; a town in one of the most beautiful parts of the world. · Alan was raised by great parents of Italian descent. They instilled family values of honesty, modesty, and respect for all people. · He married the love of his life – Virginia (from Southern Georgia). They met and were engaged to be married in only eight days. A marriage that would last 40 years and only separable through Alan’s passing. · The gift of their children Alison and Scott and their wonderful spouses Doug and Ashley. A family that was, and will remain very close. · The companionship of a twin brother , Colin. In youth, he was always someone to play catch with.

Colin is still the finest person. · The joy of observing staff at McKay Bros. and later on at Western Tractor. Their hard work and diligence was constant. · The wonderful relationships that Virginia and Alan developed with others over the years; within the John Deere business and outside of work. · The joy of 6 grandchildren, each one having their own distinct personality. · Quiet moments with just Virginia, and hectic moments when all the family was together at Alan’s favourite place – Wasa Lake. The lake view and Rocky Mountains were forever etched in Alan’s mind.

Alan is survived by his wife Virginia, daughter Alison (Doug) Pilsner, son Scott (Ashley) Fabro, mother Fiorina (98 years of age), twin brother Colin, and six beautiful grandchildren - Nolan, Brooke, Makena; Briggs, Rhett, and Ford. Alan is also survived by his sister-in-law Janet and nephew Ryan (Jacquie) Fabro, mother-in-law Eleanor Hallman and a large extended family in Southern Georgia (the finest y’all could ever meet). Alan was predeceased by his father Milo, older brother Robert, and father-in-law Roy Hallman.

A Prayer Service will be held at CORNERSTONE FUNERAL HOME, 2800 Mayor Magrath Drive South, Lethbridge, Alberta, on Monday, June 22, 2015 at 6:00 P.M. A Celebration of Life will be held at the COAST LETHBRIDGE HOTEL AND CONFERENCE CENTRE, 526 Mayor Magrath Drive South, Lethbridge, Alberta on Tuesday, June 23, 2015 at 2:00 P.M. In lieu of flowers memorial contributions may be made to the Jack Ady Cancer Centre, 960-19 Street South, Lethbridge, Alberta, T1J 1W5

Obituaries Barry Kells Craig October 27, 1932 June 11, 2015

Barry (Ginger) was born in Wetaskawin, Alberta and passed away peacefully at The Pines in Kimberley with his three children by his side. He was 82 years young. He is predeceased by his wife Myra; survived by brother Al (Bev); his son Neil (Ann), daughters Debbie and Kelly (Blair); grandchildren Tyler (Rachel) and Shannon (Liam); great grandchildren Alexis, Henry Bear and Zachery. Ginger is also survived by his special partner June Bottesi and her family.

Barry grew up in Wetaskawin and Riley, Alberta where he was a farm boy and his family operated the local diner.

In his teens he played junior hockey for the Crowsnest Coalers and then in Kimberley with the Dynamiters. He was employed at Cominco and retired as a foreman.

Barry was a avid athlete who enjoyed skiing and golf.

He especially loved watching baseball, curling, hockey and golf on television. In addition, he also loved having a hearty laugh with all his good friends, crib at Centennial Hall and Burger Tuesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s at the Sully. Ginger spent his winters in Pahrump, Nevada where he and June enjoyed golf, Las Vegas shows and travelling.

continue to turn to DAILY NEWSPAPERS for breaking news, analysis of the day’s top events and entertaining content, according to the latest NADbank data.

“Increased media competition, besides raising the editorial bar at dailies, doesn’t change one crucial fact”, says media buyer Bruce Claassen, CEO of GenesisVizeum (Toronto) and chair of Aegis Media Canada. “Daily newspapers offer the same benefits they always have: the ability to reach customers quickly. Only with a daily paper are you able to choose to do an ad and run with it in two days, and reach a sizable portion of the population, in a fairly mass, fairly broad and fairly fast way. That’s a set of qualities very few other media can match.”

Top Ten Reasons to Advertise in a Newspaper 1. Advertise to Reach New Customers.

Your market changes constantly. Advertising is tremendously helpful in directing customers to the product and services they need, and helps put you ahead of your competition.

2. Your Competition Isn’t Quitting.

You’ve got to advertise to get your share of business or lose it to the stores that do. If you cut back on your advertising, you may forfeit new prospective customers to your competition.

3. Advantage Over Competitors Who Cut Back.

Cranbrook Kimberley Creston Fernie Marysville Wardner Wasa…

A five year survey of more than 3,000 companies found that advertisers who maintained or expanded advertising during a troubled economy saw sales increase an average of 100%.

4. Continuous Advertising Strengthens Your Image.

When people who postpone buying come back to the marketplace, you’ve got a better chance of getting their business if you’ve continued to maintain a solid, reliable image.

5. Direct Advertising is Cost Efficient.

Direct has the advantages – demographic and geographic numbers to afford advertisers the best value and exposure for their advertising dollar.

6. Advertise to Generate Traffic.

Continuous traffic is the first step toward sales increases and expanding your base of buyers. The more people who contact you, the more possibilities you have to make sales.

7. Advertise to Make More Sales.

Advertising works! Businesses that succeed are usually strong, steady advertisers. Look around. You’ll find the most aggressive and consistent advertisers are almost invariably the most successful.

8. Advertise Because There is Always Business to Generate.

Salespeople are on the payroll. As long as you’re in business, you have overhead and you’ve got to advertise to generate a steady cash flow.

9. Advertise to Keep a Healthy Positive Image.

In a troubled economy, rumors and bad news travel fast.

Advertising corrects gossip, shoots down false reports and projects positively.

10. Advertise to Maintain Employee Morale.

When advertising and promotion are cut, salespeople become less motivated. They may believe the store is cutting back, even going out of business.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION NOTICE Fording River Operations Swift Project Public Comment Period Teck Coal Limited, Fording River Operations (FRO), P.O. Box 100, Elkford, British Columbia, V0B 1H0, proposes to extend current operations within and on areas immediately west, south and north of FRO’s existing open-pit mining areas located approximately 19 kilometres north of Elkford, British Columbia in the East Kootenay region of south eastern B.C. The FRO Swift Project is accessed by way of Highway 43 (Elk Valley Highway) from Sparwood, north to Elkford and then north on the Fording Mine Road. The FRO Swift Project footprint is on fee simple land owned by Teck (approximately 5% of the FRO Swift Project footprint) and on Crown land coal leases held by Teck (approximately 95% of the FRO Swift Project footprint). The South East Coal Permitting Program of the Ministry of Energy and Mines is leading a coordinated authorizations review for the proposed FRO Swift Project on behalf of the Ministry of Environment. The South East Coal Permitting Program is currently inviting public comments about the proposed FRO Swift Project related to the following authorizations: Authorization: Mines Act Permit Amendment; Act or Regulation: Mines Act; Project Component: Part 10.2.1 Health and Safety Reclamation Code for Mines in British Columbia; File No.: C-3 Mine No. 1200004; Contact: Chief Inspector of Mines, Ministry of Energy and Mines, PO Box 9320, Stv Prov Govt, Victoria, B.C. V8W 9N3.

Authorization: Environmental Management Act Permit Amendment; Act or Regulation: Environmental Management Act; Project Component: Waste Discharge; Authorization; File No.: 424. Contacts: Colin Squirrell, Project Coordinator, Southeast Coal, Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, 1902 Theatre Road, Cranbrook, B.C. V1C 7G1 Mines Act Permit Amendment: Teck Coal Limited, FRO, has submitted, as part of a joint application, a proposed mine plan together with a program for the reclamation of the land and water courses related to the FRO Swift Project.

Environmental Management Act Permit Amendment: Teck Coal Limited, FRO has submitted an amendment application to the Director to amend Permit 424, issued under the Environmental Management Act. Permit 424 was issued July 29, 1971 and last amended May 12, 2015. Permit 424 authorizes the discharge of effluent to: tailings impoundments, the Fording River or its tributaries and to the land, from a coal mining operation and coal preparation plant located on the FRO Mine Site, near Elkford, British Columbia.

The Permit 424 amendment application requests authorization to discharge mine influenced (contact) water from three new settling ponds to the Fording River, a tributary of the Elk River. Table 1 lists the three proposed discharges as well as two clean (non-contact) water discharges associated with the FRO Swift Project. The FRO Swift Project water management system will include conveyance, collection and treatment (in settling ponds) of contact water for the removal of total suspended solids (TSS) prior to discharge to the Fording River. The settling ponds will provide physical treatment to reduce TSS concentrations in the discharges to the Fording River. Concentrations of TSS are not to exceed 50 mg/L for discharges up to Q10 -24hr flow (i.e., maximum daily flow that will be observed once in 10 years).

Flocculants will be added to a settling pond as required to meet the discharge criterion. Two diversions of clean (non-contact) water around the proposed waste rock spoils are also proposed and are described below in Table 1. The settling ponds and permanent diversion and conveyance channels will be designed to convey up to the 200-year design flow without impacting the structure.

The FRO Swift Project water management system has been designed to integrate with the active water treatment facilities approved in the Elk Valley Water Quality Plan and meet the site performance

Box 100, Elkford, British Columbia, V0B 1H0, 250-425-3344, with a copy to Colin Squirrell, Project Coordinator, Southeast Coal, Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, 1902 Theatre Road, Cranbrook, B.C.
