Tianna’s tangles

n Street performer Miranda Allen, known by her stage name Tianna the Traveller, escapes from a series of ropes and chains at the Shuswap Farm and Craft Market on Friday, June 12. Allen grew up in Revelstoke and is touring the B.C. Interior before heading to the world’s largest fringe festival in Edinburgh, Scotland. Allen will return to the farmer’s market to perform her 45-minute show on Tuesday, June 23.

Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure Todd Stone addressed the Salmon Arm Chamber of Commerce Tuesday morning. There he announced that a public information meeting is set for Wednesday, June 24 from 4 to 8 p.m. at the Prestige Harbourfront Resort. “I encourage you to participate if you still have thoughts and concerns,” he told his audience. He said the ministry’s intention is to four-lane from where four-laning ends west of Salmon Arm, over a new Salmon River Bridge and through Salmon Arm. He said it’s a $120 million project. Whether it’s done in one, two, three or four phases will depend on how much the federal government will cost share, he said, noting the two levels of government are currently in discussions. Following his presentation, Salmon Arm Mayor Nancy Cooper asked if there is anything city council can do to help bring in the federal government. Stone said he wanted to emphasize the federal government is in discussions with the province. “I don’t want the message to come out of this room I was pointing the finger at the federal government,” he said. “We’re all in this together. I’ve had some very good discussions with Colin See Action on page A2
