Mayes, Kyllo announce job training grants

Through the Canada Job Grant, employers in Salmon Arm will receive over $17,000 in funding to provide skills training to their employees.

The announcement was made Tuesday by Colin Mayes, Member of Parliament for Okanagan–Shuswap, on behalf of the Honourable Pierre Poilievre, Minister of Employment and Social Development, and by Greg Kyllo, Parliamentary Secretary for the BC Jobs Plan and MLA for Shuswap, on behalf of the Honourable Shirley Bond, Minister of Jobs, Tourism and Skills Training and Responsible for Labour.

“The Canada Job Grant will help workers in British Columbia get the skills they need to fill available jobs in today’s economy,” says Mayes.

“This is great news for workers and their families across British

Columbia. I encourage all local employers to consider their current and future skills needs and apply for a Canada Job Grant to help train new or current employees for available jobs.”

Mr. Mayes and Mr. Kyllo took the opportunity to congratulate seven separate local employers who received funding, including Eagle Home Sales, where the announcement took place. Eagle Home Sales, a family-run modular home business that employs 18 people in British Columbia, received a Canada Job Grant to train 11 employees in the areas of management, sales and customer service.

“Our family business, Eagle Homes, recognizes that education is empowerment. We have always been committed to educating and training our staff,” says Jodi Bland, Eagle Homes

administrator and family member. “Eagle Homes believes that creating a knowledgeable and skilled staff is good for our clients, our community and our business. We are very pleased to participate in the Canada Job Grant, as this will help us acquire the skills we need to remain competitive.”

The Canada Job Grant is an innovative, employer-driven approach to help Canadians gain the skills and training they need to fill available jobs. It is designed to be flexible enough to meet the needs of businesses of all sizes, in all industries and regions. By requiring employers to invest in training costs, the Canada Job Grant will result in training that leads to available jobs.

The Job Grant provides up to $15,000 per person for training costs such as tuition and training materials, which includes

up to $10,000 in government contributions.

The Canada Job Grant will ensure that employers participate meaningfully as partners in the skills training system and share in the associated costs.

This will ensure that training is better aligned with job opportunities, particularly in sectors facing skills mismatches and labour shortages.

To date, over 7,300 workers in British Columbia are receiving training through the Canada Job Grant, and over 1,400 employers have been approved for funding to train new or current employees.

Prevent heat stroke in dogs

By Emily Corrie The unusually hot summer days that we’ve vetcheck been experiencing in the Shuswap make it SERVICES LTD

ety. Heat stroke can turn fatal quickly if it is not treated immediately.

If you suspect your dog has heat stroke, remove it from the hot environment and contact your veterinarian immediately. Then mist him with cool water and place him in front of a fan.

It is important not to cool off your dog too quickly with cold water because this can create more problems.

To prevent heat stroke and to keep your dog comfortable in hot weather, ensure that he always has access to water—try adding ice cubes to his water dish during a heat wave.

Restrict your dog’s exercise to cooler times of the day, or take him for a swim. If he is an outside dog, give him good access to shade at all times—dog houses are not effective in this regard because they restrict air flow and can be even hotter inside than outside. And, most importantly, never, ever leave your dog in a parked vehicle.

especially important for dog owners to learn the signs and symptoms of heat stroke (hyperthermia) in their canine friends and how to prevent this potentially fatal condition.

Unlike humans, dogs do not expel heat by sweating (except minimally through the pads of their feet) but by panting. By panting, the dog exchanges hot internal body air for cooler air outside of its body. When the air temperature comes close to body temperature (38ºC) the dog’s ability to maintain a normal temperature becomes compromised. Serious complications can arise if a dog’s body temperature stays above normal. Dogs that are trapped in hot environments like cars or greenhouses, or perform vigorous exercise in the heat, and dogs that are young, old, have short noses, long hair, or are dark-coloured are particularly susceptible to heat stroke.

Signs of heat stroke include an increased heart rate, excessive panting and salivation, a bright red/purple tongue, depression, weakness, and dizziness. Behavioural symptoms include agitation, whining, barking, and general anxi-

Staff at the Comfort Inn and Suites in Salmon Arm have been raising money for Sleeping Children Around The World, an organization that provides bedkits for needy children. All of the donations received by the charity go right to the kids; there is no overhead.

The Choice Hotels Canada Foundation sponsors a number of charities, raising money through the generosity of its guests. Of these, the Salmon Arm Comfort Inn & Suites’ staff chose Sleeping Children Around the world because they thought it was a fitting cause, as the hotel customers come for a place to sleep. A Sleeping Children Around the World bedkit consists of a mat or mattress, pillow, sheet, blanket, mosquito net (if applicable), clothes outfit, towel and school supplies. Bedkit contents vary from country to country depending upon local needs.

The total amount raised for this charity through the fundraising campaign was $10,688.30. At a cost of $35.00 for one bedkit, this amount will pay for over 305 bedkits for children in need.

The staff here came in second place for the Choice Hotels Group Canada fundraising campaign.

Comfort Inn & Suites Salmon Arm’s General Manager Jill Power (pictured at far right, with her staff) is traveling to Honduras on August 17th for two weeks to help distribute 4000 bedkits to children who need them.

Sun, sunscreens, & skin cancer

Summer is here and it appears that 2015 will be a record breaker for high temperatures and sunny days. With all of this beautiful weather, families are spending more time outdoors and are subsequently being exposed to more sunlight.

Along with this warmer weather comes the debate about whether sunlight exposure is healthy or whether it should be avoided at all costs.

Research has shown that daily moderate sunlight exposure is essential for good health. When the skin is exposed to the sun, your body produces vitamin D and melanin (your natural sunscreen which darkens into a tan). Over-exposure ages the skin, causes sunburns and wrinkles, and if severe enough can cause pre-cancerous changes in the skin. Under-exposure to the sun can also be dangerous due to insufficient production of vitamin D which accelerates melanoma growth risks.

Considering this, there has been an ongoing debate on what is the best way to deal with exposure to sunlight. Groups such as the BC Cancer Agency advocate the use of high SPF (30+) sunscreens and to avoid sun exposure. However, there are more groups that are questioning this long-held belief that sun should be avoided at all cost. One example of this is a study published in the journal Cancer in 2002 the author William B Grant who suggests that there were tens of thousands of cancer deaths attributed to insufficient UV-B light exposure (sunshine). Other studies have also shown that melanoma is occurring more frequently in areas of the body where sun screens are used the most. The highest melanoma rates are also found in people who

avoid the sun and work indoors. A study in the BMJ showed working indoors under fluorescent lights doubled your risk of melanoma, while another paper showed tanned skin from sunlight exposure reduces the harmful effects of fluorescent lights. Finally, the National Academy of Sciences showed that the ratio of Omega 6:Omega 3 is extremely important in cancer prevention. Ideally this ratio should be 1:1, but due to the high amounts of corn, soy, safflower and sunflower oil in the American diet the average ration is 20-50:1. Consuming extra Omega-3’s reduces this ration and decreases skin cancer risks.

What about sunscreens?

Sunscreens do reduce sunburn, but don’t block all of the UV rays that can lead to melanoma. The debate also revolves around the chemicals found in these products. Many of the chemicals in sunscreens are strong free-radical producers which basically damage the cells and can lead to pre-cancerous changes.

So what should we do to safeguard our family from melanoma?

Make sure everyone has adequate levels of Vitamin D through moderate sun exposure and supplementation. Gradually increase your sun exposure to allow the skin to adapt.

Avoid sun exposure in the most intense periods from 11:00-3:00.

Use clothing and hats rather than toxic chemical sunscreens for protection. If you must be out in the sun, choose products that are free from harmful chemicals, and finally, consume high amounts of Omega-3 fatty acids (fish oils).

Letters to the Editor

Economy depends on credit

While budget advice is always welcome, [‘Greek Budgeting’, July 24] the assertion that a “lack of discipline and greed” are the causes of debt problems, whether national or personal, is an unfair depiction of the role of debt in our modern economy, which oddly criticizes the very behaviour that sustains it.

In medieval times nobody expected there to be more wealth tomorrow than exists today. People loaning money were extremely conservative in their lending, borrowing money played a minor role in the economy, and growth was slow. Fast forward to the early modern era when new discoveries seemed to promise that there was no limit to the expansion of wealth.

The invention of the idea of capitalism, or the practice of ploughing this year’s profits into creating more profits for next year, was part of the new modern mindset. This faith that the future would always be rosier than the present gave banks and industrialists the confidence to lend and borrow large amounts of money, and as a result, credit became the chief driver of rapid growth in the economy.

Banks are not limited to lending out a portion of their members’ savings accounts. If there are $100 worth of savings in the bank I own (if I owned a bank) I can legally issue not one but nine loans of $100. Meaning that of the money in circulation between all the people in the little economy that my bank services, 89% is not based on real value but on an assumption of growth that will translate that money into real value in the future.

It is partly a matter of faith that this will be the case but history also suggests that the assumption of growth is a pretty good bet.

So on one hand, credit is an essential ‘good’ for generating growth in the modern economy.

Yet on the other hand, our faith in future growth, or in making real the value of that debt, is only reasonable if rates of consumption increase. At the moment, economic growth depends largely on buying things on credit that we can’t currently afford. A sudden loss of faith in future growth, or a sudden reluctance to take on new debt, will make the value of existing debt evaporate. We might be chastened to become better savers on page five, but the next page will likely encourage us to buy some new phone, car or vacation property.

As Yuval Noah Harari states in his book ‘Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind’, “[t]he capitalist and consumerist ethics are two sides of the same coin ... most people today successfully live up to the capitalist-consumerist idea.

The new ethic promises paradise on the condition that the rich remain greedy and spend their time making more money, and that the masses give free rein to their cravings and passions – and buy more and more” (pg 349). In other words, “lack of discipline and greed” are central to our economic model.

While it is certainly true that resisting consumerism is smart on an individual level and for the health of our planet, let’s be honest about where the pressure to buy more than we can afford comes from. People buying things on credit are participating in the faith of future growth and helping to ensure that growth, even as it comes at their own expense.

Noisy boats should be outlawed

Since other lakes have banned bullet boats, we will get more here. I hope someone will take the initiative to form a committee with law enforcement officers to address a City bylaw change. I am unable to do that but I have done some research I have found that there are legal regulations already in place.

Federal regulation on noise reduction on power-driven vessels states that the muffler has to be in good working order, equipped with a muffler cutout or bypass that cannot be changed easily while the boat is operational, and the exhaust gases must be directed under water through the propeller hub or below the cavitation’s plate.

The City of Salmon Arm should be able to add this to our noise bylaw. I was informed that in

Kelowna, “the City and RDCO noise bylaws also stipulate boats must have an exhaust system or they cannot even be launched.

This is a $500 fine. An enforcement officer can direct any person that a vessel not be operated until it meets requirements under the regulations or act (i.e. have a muffling system). So we used that section as well as ticketing to get the message across. There was extensive media coverage which helped as well as more enforcement.”

Education is also important as a lot of people, including enforcers, are not aware that this type of exhaust system is a legal offence.

Whether this will stop speeding is another matter, but perhaps the ‘look-at-me’ factor will disappear.

Become informed

I read Donald Sinclair’s remarks about the NDP leading in the polls in the North Okanagan Shuswap in the upcoming Federal Election. His remarks are based on results provided by three hundred and eight dot com, an internet based polling model that consolidates the results of the various polls done by others.

Eric Grenier, who operates the service has been featured in the media a lot, especially by the CBC. He states the following: “These riding projections are not polls and not necessarily an accurate reflection of correct voting intentions in each riding.” His latest results for this riding shows his estimate has a 58% chance of being correct.

To my knowledge there has not been any actual polling done in this riding. Lately there have been a few polls done by Insight Research, mostly on the Lower Mainland that show that 30% of voters are undecided. The national polls also reflect this. Polls only tabulate results from decided voters.

We are in a very volatile situation so voters should take every opportunity to become informed about the parties and the candidates.

There are a number of all candidates’ meetings upcoming throughout the riding starting in September that everyone should attend. After all, one wouldn’t buy a car with doing a test drive.

LOOKING BACK THROUGH CARDBOARD BOXES My kids shouldn’t have to decide what to keep and what to throw out when I kick the bucket, so I am going through cardboard boxes full of memories. There are things I can’t throw out without sharing them with you.

Here is the first instalment of looking back in the life of Sally Scales as taken from my scribbled notes. This first one was two years before I started this newspaper. Enjoy!

LOOKING BACK 42 YEARS IN SALMON ARM In 1973, there was a rumour that Salmon Arm would get two shopping centres. One would be up on the hill east of town and the other would be west. Lloyd Askew of Askew’s Foods was extremely worried and came to the laundromat Jim and I operated for two and a half years to ask Jim if he would sit on a committee with him to prevent the two centres. Jim knew I wanted to start a newspaper and needed to get known by the business community so he suggested Lloyd ask me, which he did. That summer the Downtown Improvement Association was formed.

This is one paragraph from a letter I wrote to my parents in Watson, Saskatchewan on June 19, 1973: “Have you been reading in the Salmon Arm paper about two shopping centres wanting to start, one to the east and one to the west of town? I have been working with the downtown businessmen, trying to prevent both from starting. If we have two, they will be poor and so will the downtown. We have been having meetings, and we prepared a brief to council which I typed and sent out.

We even called a public meeting of all businesses in the town.”

TIMES HAVE CHANGED! I joined the Co-op in Salmon Arm in 1973 when I was a registered nurse. It sold groceries, clothing, hardware, lumber and many other goods. But my membership had to be in my husband’s name. So my dividend cheques came in his name. Times have changed.

MANY FOREST FIRES DURING THIS DRY YEAR The province has been battling many forest fires this summer, well over 1,000, and far surpassing the firefighting budget. The Okanagan has been hard hit. Premier Christy Clark visited her riding of West Kelowna which had several fires, and she accompanied Prime Minister Stephen Harper when he visited firefighters in Shelter Cove in West Kelowna. Last Thursday, the Kamloops Fire Centre reported that the Shelter Bay fire was estimated at 430 hectares in size and was zero per cent con-

tained. The wildfire caused power failure for many residents of Westside Road. A most welcome rain came on Friday night.

The Prime Minister visited northern Saskatchewan, which also had many fires, and was hosted by Premier Brad Wall. With climate change causing more hot dry summers, Stephen Harper said the federal government may contribute financially to the incredible firefighting costs of the two hardest-hit provinces.

WHERE WERE YOU DURING THE FIRE OF 1998?

I felt rather complacent living in Salmon Arm while so many other parts of the province were having wildfires. I often recalled the panic we experienced in 1998 when the Silver Creek fire was coming close and half the town of 14,000 was evacuated. Where were you during the fire of 1998?

CHANCES GAMING CENTRE OPENED JULY 20 Chances gaming centre opened on Monday, July 20 on Adams Lake Indian Band property that was formerly used by Salmon Arm GM. After a fire destroyed much of the dealership, a large, modern building was erected east of town, a few blocks past McDonald’s.

Chances is across 10th Street SW from the Shell gas station. It is in a three-way collaboration of B.C. Lottery Corporation, Berezan Management and the Adams Lake Indian Band. Berezan hired 85 people. The fabulous interior has 99 slot machines, one electronic blackjack machine and 124 electronic and 24 paper bingo seats.

The beautiful building will include banquet and meeting space which will be available for conferences and community events.

Chances is open from 11 a.m. to midnight from Sunday to Thursday, and 11 a.m. to 1 a.m. on Friday and Saturday.

You don’t have to go out of town to play, folks!

LOBLAWS IS CLOSING 52 STORES IN CANADA BUT LEAVING DISCOUNTERS LIKE NO FRILLS Loblaw acquired Shoppers Drug Mart in early 2014, and since then has been reviewing all its retail operations.

It plans to close 52 unprofitable stores but will open new ones in better locations this year. Loblaw Companies Ltd. operates other supermarkets: Great Canadian Superstore, No Frills and Extra Foods.

ENDERBY’S FLOWER SHOW IS ON AUGUST 15 Read details in next week’s column about Enderby’s flower show on Aug. 15. Exhibitors may want to get all the rules, show schedule, and information in the brochure that is available at the Visitor’s Centre in Enderby’s Belvidere Park, Crocus Floral Design in Enderby, Hanna & Hanna Orchards in Salmon Arm, Blue Mountain Nursery in Armstrong, and Swan Lake Nursery in Vernon.

COMMERCIAL CARDBOARD RECYCLING If you have a business that produces plenty of flattened cardboard from boxes, there is a special container for you to use near the landfill site by the airport. I began putting cardboard into it until the full-time employee at the recycling centre there told me it’s only for businesses that don’t have a cardboard bin of their own. She showed me where householders are to place their cardboard and loose newspapers. She’s a great help.

Corrugated cardboard is pulped and pressed into fibres that become cereal boxes, egg cartons, and cardboard boxes depending on the mix of papers.

Styrofoam egg cartons with a logo and printing on top are considered coloured. They are not to go with white styrofoam. That’s what I learned at the recycling depot up top.

SCAM PHONE CALLS In a recent phone call, my name and number showed up in the call display. How could that be? So I answered it.

The recorded voice gave me a warning about my credit card that might be cancelled if I didn’t take action and said I should press one to continue or two to not get any more calls. I pressed two, but the voice came back and said for more information I should press one. I pressed two, and was told it was the wrong number. I hung up.

MY FRIENDS IMMEDIATELY SAY HELLO SALLY When my phone rings and I pick it up, I want to hear someone greet me right away. If there is a pause, it is one computer signalling another to say there’s a live one, start the pitch. I hang up. I do not want to hear a recorded message because it is usually a scam.

FORTY HOCKEY TEAMS HERE FOR TOURNAMENTS Gord Macintosh, Ray Sakaki and Tom Marsh, co-owners of Salmon Arm Hockey School, are expanding this year to include not only Female Hockey School, but also adult hockey tournaments. Next week will see many families who bring kids for hockey school. This week it will be adults playing. Aug. 4-7 will be 70-and-over and 65-and-over. Aug. 7-9 will be 40-and-over, 50-and-over and ladies’ division. Aug. 21-23 will have adult rec and co-ed tournaments.

The partners are excited about bringing over 40 teams to Shaw Centre for summer hockey action!

NOISY BOATS DISTURB THE PEACE AND THE BIRDS A summer resident between Herald Park and Totem Pole Resort said this summer there are many speed boats on Shuswap Lake that disturb the peace, especially on weekends. There are hardly any birds in the area.

Okanagan Lake does not allow the noisy boats. Their owners must have moved them to Shuswap Lake.

PUT VALUABLES IN TRUNK, OUT OF SITE Vernon RCMP spokesman Gord Molendyk said people should keep all valuables out of site. Items should be placed in the trunk of the vehicle before arriving at your destination because thieves sometimes watch parking lots and look for people putting items in the trunk.

Shuswap Settlement Services Society is partnering with SASCU Credit Union in a continuing effort to help build a community that is welcoming to everyone, free of prejudice and hate.

Prejudice and hate can manifest itself in many ways according to society president, Bernie Desrosiers. Much prejudice is systemic in nature and less openly apparent than are overt acts of prejudice. “For example, people of colour, gays or lesbians, Hindus and Muslims, or the disabled or mentally ill may experience more difficulty securing employment or services than do other members of the community,” says Bernie. “If we wish to see our community become a more ethnically mixed community we need to make a special effort to include them in both the social and commercial sectors of the community.”

To further this effort, staff and volunteers need to be trained in how to recognize and respond to incidences of dis-

have the same amount of money by the time they are 60 and will have invested over $46,000. The numbers don’t lie!

5. Finally, like I told you when teaching the kids; make it fun. Give yourself something to work towards. Plan a family vacation and alter your budget to accommodate saving money for the trip. When grandparents asked what the kids want for Christmas or birthdays tell them to make a contribution to the holiday fund.

See, it can be fun! Surprise yourself by giving it a try. Besides, I would rather budget then deal with the stress of not dealing with it.

Last week I explained how money management has become such a problem, whether it is individually or collectively, in the form of government or any other organization. I pointed out that a lack of education was only part of the problem and in fact a lack of discipline and greed were the far greater issue.

Mall Arkey wants to ensure you have a good platform for managing your finances by giving you some budgeting basics. That way none of us can say, “But I just don’t know how to budget!”

1. Some of the smartest people are those who surround themselves with smart people. Just ask my 9-year-old son; he always picks the smartest girl in his class whenever there is a group project (refer to Sep 26/2014 article). Now that is smart!

So if you don’t know what you are doing, ask someone or research the library or internet.

There are lots of resources out there.

2. Ensure the plan is realistic. If you don’t have a realistic budget, you will never follow it.

Don’t budget $200/month for food when you have a house full of teenagers.

3. As a starter, begin your budget with what you know. This will cover off most of your budget. Items like income, mortgage, insurance, utilities, vehicle fuel etc. are usually predictable.

If it helps, have your utilities and insurance on equal monthly payment plans. Most of these items don’t change a lot and usually these are not the areas you have a lot of control over when it comes to trimming your budget.

4. If at all possible try to include in you budget some savings; even if you start with $10 a month. Don’t wait until you “think” you can afford it; you will probably be using that same excuse 20 years later. Besides, the laws of compounding interest show how important it is to start early. For example, if a person starts saving $50 per month at the age of twenty and has an average rate of return of 5%; by the time they are 60 they will have invested a total of $24,600 and have around $80,500. If the same person waited until they were 40 years old to start saving, they would have to invest nearly $190 per month to

Destination Canada

Canada’s natural beauty has been sought out and appreciated by Canadians and visitors alike for a long time and today tourism remains an important driver of our regional and national economies.

Canada’s government launched the Federal Tourism Strategy in 2011 establishing a coordinated approach to position Canada as a premier destination and the results of the strategy speak for themselves.

In 2014, tourism revenues in Canada reached $88.5 billion, an increase of nearly 5 percent compared to 2013. Most importantly, the tourism industry accounts for nearly 628, 000 jobs in Canada including thousands here in the OkanaganShuswap. Last year, over 16 million visitors came to discover and experience our destinations, from coast to coast to coast. With a 9 percent increase in overnight trips from overseas markets, 2014 was a good year.

Tourism’s growth has seen an increase in visitors from emerging markets like China, India and Mexico. According to the Reputation Institute,

mpreport

by Colin Mayes Canada is one of the top countries in the world to visit, to live or to study in, but also the best country for attending conferences or organizing events and this has also grown tourism.

Our reputation is not just a concept: achieving results in a complex and competitive marketplace requires continued outreach and state of the art marketing campaigns that our government continues to invest in.

In addition to continued investment in the infrastructure that brings visitors to our region, new investments from the Canadian Tourism Commission in emerging markets have led to tangible results. In the first four months of 2015, overnight trips to Canada by international visitors grew by 5.7% compared to the same period last year. Comparatively, the United Nations World Tourism Organization most recent forecasts have predicted a 3 to 4 % growth in world tourist arrivals in 2015. Indeed, we are on the right track.

I wish you a safe and prosperous summer season!

Liquor policy review to cut red tape

Donation to women’s shelter

The Mall at Piccadilly hosted their second annual Merchant Charity Block Party on Saturday July 25th to benefit the SAFE Society Salmon Arm Women’s Shelter.

Through their activities, they raised $2520 as well as a donation of a shopping cart full of items from their customers.

Pictured here are Mall Marketing Director Lynda Stepura (centre), S.A.F.E. Society Executive Director Jane Shirley (right), and Sara Inskip from the Women’s Shelter.

By Jeff Nagel, Black Press Wineries, breweries, cideries and distilleries with licensed lounges can now sell patrons liquor they didn’t produce.

Until now, a distillery couldn’t sell anything other than the spirits it produces – a glass of B.C. wine was off limits – and a winery couldn’t oblige if one guest at a table wanted a beer instead of the local grape.

Those lines are erased under the latest change stemming from B.C.’s liquor

Corner fireplace conundrum

I have a corner fireplace in a fairly small living room. I love the fireplace but hate its placement. Because I’m repurposing part of my living room, the corner fireplace is the bane of my decorating existence right now. To say nothing of trying to find an area rug that is sort-of-oval and sort-of-octagonal.

Lets be clear, I don’t go nuts over this stuff.

An architectural element that is weird or out of balance, or really bugs you, can be dealt with by either changing it, ignoring it or camouflaging it. It really is that simple. If you can live with the off-centre window or door, the corner fireplace or the support column in a very awkward place, and learn to ignore it; there’s your solution.

Sometimes painting the beam or the fireplace surround the same colour as the wall helps with this illusion.

Changing it is major reno. Enough said about this option.

Which leave us with camouflage. In this case, it means decorating around the fireplace so the corner placement loses importance.

In a room with a fireplace and a TV, chances are good the TV is positioned above, or near, the fireplace. Why not? When the sofa is placed in front of the TV, we get

to see the fireplace too.

What you are doing here is really using two focal points as one.

So, back to the design guideline that says to position the main piece of furniture oriented toward the focal point. If you can do that with a corner fireplace and TV mounted above, or set beside, that’s great. Go ahead and do that. But the front of the sofa must be parallel to the front of the fireplace, and this typically requires a rather large room.

If you can’t, you have to choose one element as the focal point and one as the secondary. And I’ll bet the TV wins as the focal point. You are now free to look at the floor plan with fresh eyes. Arrange the furniture based on the correct TV location. And don’t forget that this

designdilemmas

by Linda Erlam

is NOT where the cable guy says it should be, but where it really should be according to your well-thoughtout floor plan.

Allow the fireplace to be the secondary focal point; flank it with two chairs and a shared footstool or something to give it some importance. I’ve done room plans where two TV-facing chairs swivelled so the fireplace could be the focal point.

I’ll post some links to my favourite floorplan software sites, and some pictures of good and bad corner fireplace plans on the website Designsewlutions.ca.

But there will be a limit – a maximum of 20 per cent of sales by a given producer can consist of liquor produced off-site.

That’s intended to keep the focus on unique local offerings.

“We are doing away with B.C.’s archaic liquor rules,” Attorney General Suzanne Anton said, adding the change will give more choice to consumers while supporting B.C. tourism and small businesses.

Guild of B.C. president Tyler Dyck said the move opens the door for craft brewers, vintners and distillers to cross-promote each other.

The new rules also apply to special events, so a wedding or other event at a

winery or other liquor producer will no longer have to get a special occasion licence to serve alcohol.

Anton indicated more reforms may be coming in areas where “further red tape can be cut.”

Ellen Doty is a soulful Canadian vocalist and songwriter with a world-class voice. Her music is rooted in jazz, yet seamlessly incorporates elements of other genres including folk and pop.

A true storyteller whose works are as intimate and as personal as their handwritten lyrics, Ellen’s immense talent for songwriting is only complemented by her stunning vocals. Rich, sultry, and sweet, Ellen’s voice draws listeners in and takes them on an unforgettable journey.

After an overwhelming response to her crowd-funding campaign, Ellen embarked on a thirty-city, forty-six stop tour which kicked off in Sydney, Nova

Scotia and ended in Victoria, BC. Hot on the heels of her critically-acclaimed debut album, Ellen continues to enchant audiences across the country with show stopping performances. Her first single from her upcoming album “Just So You Know” was released on April 13th, 2015.

Founded in 2012 by artistic director and principal dancer Lia Grainger, Fin De Fiesta Flamenco is an ensemble of Canadian and American flamenco artists that divide their time between North America and Seville, Spain. The name Fin De Fiesta Flamenco translates as “End of the Party,” a reference to the open jam session that occurs at the end of a traditional flamenco show in Spain. It is during the fin de fiesta that the true improvisational and spirited nature of flamenco shows itself, and it is that lively spirit – unpredictable and unrestrained – that inspires their work.

Fin De Fiesta Flamenco is led by Lia Grainger

of Vancouver (whose father Bill Grainger lives in Salmon Arm) and accompanied by guitarist Dennis Duffin as well as a wide range of talented guest artists from across the United States and Canada.

This tour features acclaimed dancers Michelle Harding and Maria Avila, Los Angeles-based singer Daniel Azcarate, and flautist Lara Wong.

Fin De Fiesta Flamenco performs their production “Suerte” in Revelstoke at the Revelstoke United Church on Friday, August 7; and in Salmon Arm at the Shuswap Theatre on Saturday, August 8.

Pioneer women

As Robert Service once wrote, “The tales have been told of men and gold, and them that have tried in vain, to settle or bust, the gold’s just a lust. I’d settle with cows and a ranch to maintain.”

And so it was, after the Cariboo gold rush waned; and from that hardy stock, came women who toiled alongside theirhusbands, to raise a family and remain in the Cariboo.

There, where Haller’s, Hances, and pioneer ranchers like Pan Phillips and Dude Lavington.

One doesn’t want to forget good ol’ Chilco Choate. The list goes on.

Driving down a Cariboo highway, there’s always country music playin’ on the truck radio, and at 10 am, 12 noon, and 2 pm, messages sent out on the radio for Jimmy Charlie to meet Louise at Hanceville, or other messages.

Names like Redstone, Anahim, and Chesacut mean something back in pioneer times. Through the annals of Cariboo/Interior history, pioneer women played a major role in creating legacies.

They were, and still are, in many respects, ranchers, farmers, business women, rappers, politicians, and police officers.

As a fishery officer, I spent many days and nights doing enforcement work with my colleagues, and learning about the southern Cariboo, and its characters.

One very interesting person, remembered for wit and character, was Ma (Margaret) Murray (left), owner of the Bridge River Lillooet News. The often colourful, caustic penning of Ma, horrified some and delighted others. One statement she wrote was typical: “A smack on the head for wastrels and city folk; an approving nod for rural Canada, and basic values.”

Ma was born and raised in rural Kansas, and was known for her short temper and colourful language. She quit school at 13. At 17, she landed a job at a saddlery. Filled with romantic notions of the West, she and her sister slipped notes into saddle bags destined for Canadian cowboys. Undeterred by her lack of training in formal grammar or punctuation, she extolled

Cedar Heights duplicate

Cedar Heights duplicate bridge results for Wednesday, July 22nd were: 1. Dan Quilty and Fred Viehoffer; 2. Vicki Coe and Jack Ashenbrenner; and 3. Don Sillars and Jim Allison.

The Cedar Heights Duplicate Bridge Group meets every Wednesday evening at Cedar Heights Center on Cedar Drive in Blind Bay. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. with play starting at 7:00 p.m.

the virtues of common folks, scolding and pouncing on politicians with her pen. Her daughter wrote, “Mother wrung every ounce of shock and drama out of every situation she was ever in.”

To women out there, one very compelling piece was “We are not compelled to smoke those cigarettes; drink CocaCola; use the lipstick; guzzle the beer; read the magazines devoted to romance; legs; detective stories; cookery, mystery, and mayhem.” The busty bespectacled blonde, with hat askew, belt hanging loose, blue eyes snapping, would breeze into ad agency offices with cantaloupe, giant tomatoes, even hindquarters of pork, promoting the virtues of Lillooet. Supporting the liquor ads, she wrote, “Down here at

shuswapoutdoors the news office, our favourite tipple is overproof rum: $1.25 for a mickey. Mix with honey and nutmeg and boiling hot water. And you get 14 people smiling, seven people chuckling, and four people slappin’ their thighs, which is good mileage for five bits!”

Here in the Shuswap, scanning through our Shuswap Chronicles, there are many fascinating stories of pioneer women, raising families, and practicing culinary skills with basic food stuffs.

Barbara Wood, daughter of Lee Creek pioneers Alex and Isabel McKay, recalls, “People worked in those days.

Bull work. I could cook a full meal from soup to dessert when I was 10. I canned, made bread, washed dirty dia-

by Hank Shelley pers, I cut wood and hauled it into the house. Hauled water from the lake.”

But how things have changed in our modern society. What transcended from the pioneer spirit of yesteryear is still with us today, in many rural environments brought on by the hardships our pioneers endeavoured. Today, with so much uncertainty regrading jobs, lifestyles, climate change, weather across the country, storms, and fires, many of us still have that positive attitude and good work ethic to carry on. “When the going gets tough, the tough get going.”

Till next time, keep smiling and keep on a’ truckin’!

Lakeshore News travels to...

Puerto Vallarta

Kaley York-Pearce of Salmon Arm and her husband went to Puerto Vallarta for two weeks in the spring.

She says, “We stayed at a resort in the village of Mismaloya, the community where John Huston’s ‘Night of the Iguana’ was filmed. We were able to tour the old movie set, and explore the nearby zoo and botanical gardens. Lush jungle abundant with banana, mango, and coconut trees surrounded us, and we found the adventures of ziplining and horseback riding through the Sierra Madre to be peak experiences. In addition, boat rides to the golden sand beach of Yelapa and the eco-reserve of Marietas Islands with its famed hidden beach were highlights of our trip.

From the vibrancy of the Mexican culture to the rich beauty of this tropical paradise, Puerto Vallarta is definitely a place we would visit again.”

Kaley is pictured at the Los Muertos Pier and receives $10 for having her picture printed. She is entered into the Lakeshore News Travels To contest for 2015.

Travels To payments must be picked up in person at Lakeshore News, 161 Hudson Ave NE.

250-832-9461 Protection failure prompts probe

By Tom Fletcher, Black Press VICTORIA – One of the architects of B.C.’s children’s ministry has been brought back in to review its procedures after a court case revealed four children were left in the care of their abusive father.

Children and Family Development Minister Stephanie Cadieux announced Friday that former deputy minister Bob Plecas will lead the review of the case and recommend changes by October.

In his second ruling on the case, released last week, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Paul Walker found the ministry was negligent in the decision to allow the father unsupervised access to the children. In a 2009 ruling awarding sole custody to the mother, Walker accepted evidence that the father had physically and sexually abused the older three children.

Despite that order, the ministry permitted the father unsupervised access, allowing him to sexually abuse the youngest child. None of the family members is publicly identified.

“A key feature of the Director [of Child Welfare] conduct in this case is that she and many of her agents approached the case in front of them with a closed mind, having concluded at a very early stage, before the children were inter-

viewed, that there was no merit to the sexual abuse allegations and that [the mother] had fabricated them and had coached her children to make their disclosures,” Walker wrote in a 341-page judgment.

Plecas said he will not be considering individual misconduct of ministry staff involved, who have been reassigned while the review is ongoing.

“I think people will speak with me because it’s a non-threatening exercise,” Plecas said.

Cadieux said an independent and unbiased review is needed because of the “many significant and disturbing assertions about staff conduct” in the ruling. The government has not decided whether to appeal.

NDP leader John Horgan said the terms of Plecas’ review do not allow him to look at the conduct of the minister and senior staff, and his report goes to Cadieux. He said Representative for Children and Youth Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond has the independence and authority to compel testimony of all concerned.

“I think they don’t want to get to the bottom of this,” Horgan said.

Plecas was involved in the creation of the children’s ministry in the late 1990s. He will work with the Child Welfare League of Canada in developing recommendations.

Our 11th annual Harbour Front Cruise Show and Shine on Saturday, July 11th went very well.

We had 118 registered cars, with about 10 or more not registered. Many of the cars were new and not seen before. The crowds were much larger than previous years, probably due to the great job EZ Rock Radio did promoting the show.

We had many comments at the registration tent on what a great place to have a car show.

I would like to give a special thank you to all those that helped make the 11th Annual Harbour Front Cruise Show and Shine the great success that it was. Without all the volunteers this event would be impossible to pull off.

Thank you to the following people: Secretarial/computer work (gopher work) - PD Toop.

Parking crew: Duff Turner (organizer); George Evaneshen; Eldon Gunderson; Wayne Huffman; Miles Kentel; Roy McDonald; Brad McDonald; and Gary Simpson.

Registration: Rudy Funfer, organizer and Heather Funfer.

SUDOKU

WORD SEARCH

Capricorn, express yourself when asked for your honest opinion this week. Keeping things close to the vest is not what people want to see, so don’t hesitate to offer your insight.

AQUARIUS

Trust your intuition in a sticky situation, Aquarius.

Panicking will only make the situation more complicated, so allow your instincts to take over.

PISCES

PUZZLE NO. SU147310

The time has come for you make your move, Pisces. You’re fully capable of making this transition and more than ready to do so.

HOW TO PLAY: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each ANSWER TO PUZZLE NO. SU14731A number can appear only once in each row, column and box.

You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

ARIES

Aries, you have had little luck regarding relationships of late. Rather than focus on what hasn’t gone your way, change your perspective and focus on the good things.

TAURUS

Taurus, you can be pretty stubborn when it comes to something that matters dearly to you. No matter your feelings, try to behave in a diplomatic manner.

GEMINI

Gemini, be a shoulder to cry on for a beloved friend or family member this week. Everything will ultimately work out for the best, but your loved one needs support this week.

CANCER

Be mindful of what you say and do this week, Cancer. Your head may be telling you to speak up, but your heart is telling you to stay quiet for a little while longer.

LEO

Leo, enjoy the noisiness around you this week.

This extra hop in your step is refreshing and encourages you to make some bold moves that will pay off in the long run.

VIRGO

Virgo, address an issue with a clear head this week. Your advice has been solicited, and you know how to help, but some subtlety is a good thing in this situation.

LIBRA

Libra, adopt an analytical approach to solve a puzzling situation at work this week. This way of looking at things is just what you need to find the right solution
