There are more than 240 allergens, some rare and others very common. If you’re a sneezer due to pollen: close your car’s windows while driving, rather switch on the internal fan (drawing in air from the outside), and avoid being outdoors between 5am and 10 am when pollen counts are at their highest; stick to holidays in areas with low pollen counts, such as the seaside and stay away from freshly cut grass.

• Protect your kids: It’s estimated that up to 80 per cent of a person’s total exposure to the sun happens before he or she turns 18 years old.

In addition, one serious spell of sunburn in childhood can increase future cancer risk by as much as 50 per cent. So if you’re a parent, teach your kids healthy sun habits early on. Babies under six months should be kept out of the sun completely.

• Don’t believe ‘healthy’ tans exist: There is a common assumption that if a person tans well, they’re protected from the sun – this is a myth! Even ‘healthy’ tans are really just damage control; it’s your body’s way of trying to protect itself from the sun. Regardless of your skin colour, you need to be sun-smart.

• Cover up: Whenever possible, cover up – for example, a longer cotton skirt may keep you cooler and offer better protection than a pair of shorts. A hat is essential as it keeps sun rays off the scalp, face and back of the neck, which are prime areas for skin cancer. A good hat can also shelter and protect your

Ask your Cosmetician Andrea 2X4

If you follow any North American websites that discuss the benefits of consuming organic foods, or other sites that contain information about the hazards of genetically modifies organisms GMO’s, you surely will have seen references to the American DARK act. The DARK (Deny Americans the Right to Know) act is piece of legislature that was passed in the US house of representatives on July 22, 2015. It is a proposed law that has been heavily funded by the “Big-Agriculture” corporations like Monsanto which will force individual states in the US to no longer be able to demand mandatory GMO labeling laws. This law was passed despite the fact that 90% of Americans support mandatory GMO labeling of foods.

The large corporations like Monsanto have pumped millions of dollars into lobbying the government to pass this law because they do not want consumers to know which products contain their GMO ingredients. In their slick marketing campaigns, these giant corporations claim to be supporting this law so the American public does not face increased costs of food resulting from what they claim to be “expensive labeling requirements.” Looking past their marketing, it is obvious they simply want to continue selling their questionable products while keeping consumers in the “dark” about what they are eating.

Basically it would force the Non-GMO producers to pay for their labeling, rather than the GMO corporations being required to label their products. In other words, the smaller, organic, and even traditional food producers would have to register with, and pay a government body in order to inform the public that their products are non-GMO. While this law has passed through the house of congress, it now needs to be passed by the American senate. Organic food supporters such as the Organic Consumers Association who support mandatory GMO labeling are frantically trying to bring further awareness to these issues and are attempting to stop this law from passing through the senate. Whether they will succeed or not is another question considering the very large role corporate lobbyists and buy-outs play in American politics.

Regardless of the outcome of all this politicking, the importance of knowing where and how your food has been produced is of utmost importance. Generally speaking the U.S.A. has great influence over Canada and we tend to follow their lead – keep yourself informed; knowledge is power. A good site for following this issue can be found at www.organicconsumers.org.

LOOKING BACK THROUGH CARDBOARD BOXES As I am continually downsizing, I am finding scribbled notes that haven’t seen the light of day.

I started the paper in 1975 and it was the only full distribution paper at the time. These were some comments in the first few years: Paul Angell: “You’re doing all right. I didn’t think you’d make a go of it when you started.”

Ron Brown: “You’ve got to be more professional!”

Vic Bates: “I’m convinced it’s your paper that’s bringing me more business.”

Don Dunn denied an increase in business, but kept advertising.

Ken Allen: “Your little paper is the best thing!”

Peter Brodoway: “That’s the best damn paper around.”

These had no name: “What does a woman know about a paper?” “She’ll last the first month.” “She must be trying to prove this is women’s lib year.” “You’ve got it made.”

A man was taken aback when he came to the office and saw that I wasn’t a young chick because that’s how I wrote. He said: “You’re unique. You don’t speak as you write. Most people write the way they talk, but you don’t.”

BECAUSE I WAS A WOMAN, I COULDN’T GET A LOAN Harry Francis, my mentor, was the owner of Kamloops News. He advised me not to start a paper till I had $5,000 in the bank. But I had only $4,000 when the time was right in March, 1975. When I was running out of money I went to the Bank of Montreal to borrow $1,000. The manager said he couldn’t give it to me till I had my husband’s signature. So I made another appointment and brought Jim with me.

A SALESMAN DIDN’T WANT TO SEE A WOMAN In 1975, a salesman of newspaper equipment came to the upstairs of what is now Wearabouts, where Jim had a financial consulting office and I had the newspaper. He saw Jim at his desk across the hall and came to my counter to ask if he could see the man in his office. I told him to go right in. The salesman sat down and began his pitch about newspaper equipment. Jim harshly said he needs to see me because I own the newspaper. He came to my front desk rather sheepishly.

SMART CARS USED BY NEW YORK CITY POLICE The New York Police Department added eight Smart Cars earlier in 2015 to replace eight three-wheeled scooters. The cars can be driven 90 miles per hour but are not to be used in police chases. According to an internal memo, they can be more versatile than the larger police cruisers. Even though they have a passenger seat, they are not allowed to carry a passenger. They have air bags and air conditioning, and are safer than a three-wheeled scooter. The NYPD is so happy with the results that it plans to buy 100 more to replace the aging scooters.

Each car is plastered with regular-sized NYPD logos.

See about 40 pictures of them by googling NYPD Smart Cars.

NEW YORK STATE RAISES FAST FOOD PAY Fast food pay in the state of New York will go up from the current minimum wage of $8.75 to $15 an hour. Food costs will also go up. It is expected other industries will follow. It may take several years for the legislation to be

passed. Many cities have already increased their minimum wage to $15, like Seattle, San Francisco, and Los Angeles.

Will Canada follow and increase its bottom wage to $15?

FREE PANCAKE BRUNCH DOWNTOWN IN A WEEK Enjoy tasty pancakes and listen to Roots & Blues musicians next Saturday, August 15, which is midway through the Roots & Blues Festival at the fairgrounds.

SEND PRESS RELEASES TO DAILY ONLINE PAPER While searching the internet for news about Chances, I found a new newspaper called Interior Daily News. Was it Black Press? Kamloops This Week? Glacier Media Group? I need to know! No, the Interior Daily News says it’s a local Canadian online newspaper serving the majority of BC’s interior as well as covering major events and concerts happening in Vancouver. It launched on January 15, 2012 and says it has had three and a half successful years reporting. It does not say who owns it.

Here’s something unique about it: you can read it in any language. I scrolled to Ukrainian and instantly, every word was in Ukrainian. It must have an instant translator.

If you find out who owns it, please let me know.

KINDALE THRIFT STORE RECYCLING PROGRAM What isn’t sold in Kindale’s thrift stores is sent to a company that re-sorts it. Forty per cent of clothing is sent to Africa, 20 per cent is used to make industrial rags, 20 per cent is processed into yarn to make blankets, and 20 per cent is shredded to use as packing material. JPW Road & Bridge Inc. stores the recycling. In 2014, Kindale and JPW kept 89,384 pounds out of the landfill, and that doesn’t include what was sold in its stores.

Kindale is a non-profit, charitable, community-supported society that began in Armstrong in 1959 as a school for children with special needs. It has grown into

a large and diverse organization serving individuals in Cherryville, Lumby, Lavington, Greater Vernon, Armstrong, Spallumcheen, Falkland, Enderby, Salmon Arm, Blind Bay, Sicamous, Grindrod and Revelstoke.

Thrift stores are located in Armstrong and Salmon Arm. One hundred per cent of proceeds support the hopes, wishes and dreams of a segment of the population that is often forgotten, according to a brochure. Volunteers are always needed in thrift stores.

For more information on Kindale Development Association, go to www.kindale.net and search Facebook for Kindale.Okanagan. 250-546-3005.

MOUNTAIN EQUIP. CO-OP COMING TO KELOWNA People from throughout Canada buy a membership and shop at the Canadian-owned Mountain Equipment Co-op.

If you’re an outdoorsy type, going into an MEC is like going into Costco for one item and coming out with a full shopping cart.

Stores closest to us are in Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver, Victoria or online. In the spring of 2016, MEC will take over the 20,000 square-foot space at Kelowna’s Orchard Plaza Shopping Centre formerly occupied by Future Shop.

CALGARY MUSLIMS TRAIN THEIR YOUTH TO BE COMPLETELY CANADIAN, EVEN THE CITY’S MAYOR A mosque in Calgary, whose almost 1,000 members were in Salmon Arm for the Victoria Day weekend in May, celebrated Canada Day because they are completely part of Canada. An article in Maclean’s magazine said they feed about 6,000 people at their annual Canada Day barbecue. The public comes to the Baitun Nur Ahmadiyya Mosque for food and activities for kids and adults.

Sultan Mahmood, the director of community services, was quoted as saying they celebrate everything good in Canada. The mosque has a big TV and people watch hockey matches. They have been putting stickers on their cars saying “Go Flames, Go.” He said they have chosen Canada to be their homeland and, following the teaching of Prophet Muhammad, they must be good members of civic society, to be loyal and to promote Canadian values and culture.

Random musings August is here! Wow, how the summer continues to fly by. I know you are tired of me writing about financial topics, so I’ll spare you and instead give you a couple random kid stories to read as you sit back and enjoy the summer sunshine.

The Junior Bean Counter and his cousin have been doing some work for my brother-inlaw. A little bit of yard work including weeding etc. and the two of them couldn’t be happier. They love each other’s company and seem to always turn mundane tasks into exciting events. They also get lots of treats too.

The other day the Junior Bean Counter says: “I have got to talk to Uncle!”

“Why do you need to talk to him?” I asked.

Struggling economy a hot topic

Letters to the Editor

INVENTOR

Green Party leader Elizabeth May began the campaign in her home riding of Saanich-Gulf Islands. Her economic platform also calls for tax increases for the highest income earners, as well as increasing corporate income tax rates to 2008 levels.

The early election call increases spending limits for parties and caps it for third-party advertisers such as labour unions that have been targeting Harper. It also leaves some ridings without nominated candidates.

Another change is in debate formats, as first Harper and then Mulcair declined the traditional debate organized by TV networks.

The first national debate is set for Thursday, Aug. 6, hosted by Maclean’s magazine.

Among the topics will be sharp differences over Canada’s role in the international military action against Islamic State terrorists in Iraq and Syria. Harper renewed Canada’s commitment to maintain six fighter jets and special forces support in one of his last acts before calling the election.

Both the NDP and Liberals are promising to end Canadian bombing of Islamic State positions.

Mulcair would withdraw all military personnel from Iraq and Syria, while Trudeau supports keeping military trainers in place, with both promising increased humanitarian aid.

End of an Era Ridetech closed its doors at the end of July after serving the area for over two decades. Owner Chris Emel (above) says it was time for a career change.

“After 22 years I’m just ready to move on and try something new. I love the bike business – it’s alive and well and going strong – but I’m ready for a change.”

Chris says he and his wife will miss seeing all their customers.

“A huge, huge thanks for their loyalty and support. It’s been fascinating getting to know them. I’ll always be a biker myself and I hope to see all my past customers on the trails.”

Chris will be going into the eavestrough business with his friend, Aaron Molotowski, who owns Element Gutters.

“My goal is to offer the same level of quality service that I gave to my bike customers.”

To contact Chris at Element Gutters call 250-804-9402.

To ask about any leftover discounted items from Ridetech email interiorbikeshop@gmail.com

Head Gamez at New Location Head Gamez, formerly known as Hot Headz, has moved and expanded. From their location above Victorian Impressions, they are now at 101-351 Hudson Avenue, across from the post office. Owner Rachele Spanier (above, right) is excited about the new location, which is at ground level and more easily accessible.

Along with Jackie Winter (above, left), who has over 30 years experience as a licensed stylist and esthetician, she will be adding two more to the staff. Michelle Amos, a Reiki master and esthetician, will be relocating from Kelowna and join them within a few weeks. Kathi Milburn, a stylist with over 20 years experience, will be relocating from Rocky Mountain House.

“Our philosophy is about health inside and out,” says Rachele. “We try to do everything with a healthy approach. Our products are organic or natural based.

Even when I do colours, I’m more concerned about the integrity and health of the hair. I do demi-permanent because it’s a non-damaging approach to hair.”

Rachele is a colour technician and she has 26 years in the industry. Before that she worked as a graphic artist in Vancouver for five years.

The new decor in Head Gamez is urban industrial with

touches of homespun agricultural artistry.

Head Gamez often opens late in the evenings. Their typical hours are from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. but Rachele and Jackie are available by appointment only. Kathi will be doing walk-ins. To contact Headgamez call 250-8040141 or visit their Facebook page Head Gamez Hair & Company.

New Practitioner at Body Works Nikki Cornforth (right) has joined Body Works and is offering Raindrop Technique sessions. This technique combines the healing benefits of therapeutic grade essential oils with aromatherapy, vita-flex and feathering.

“I got my first taste of Raindrop Technique using essential oils about a year ago. I visited the Idaho Balsam Fir Young Living Farm where I received my preliminary training. I was hooked! I then went to Alberta to complete my training.”

She has been doing energy work for the past few years and have always incorporated essential oils in her everyday life.

“Essential oils have been an additional health asset for our family for 11 years. I was able to combine my two loves. Energy work and essential oils, facilitating the Raindrop Technique. Raindrop is a great way to align the body and often results in people actually growing a 1/4 of an inch after a session. Raindrop is ideal for people with back discomfort or if you are looking to boost your immunity.”

Nikki lives in White Lake with her husband Mike and two children Joey and Lily. She offers workshops using Young Living Essential Oils and how to incorporate the oils into everyday life.

“I like to gear my workshops on how to use essential oils and what resonates with me and my family and how they have improved our life. I love the versatility of essential oils and how they positively affect mind, body and soul.”

Nikki will be offering a Raindrop Technique workshop on August 12 at 7 p.m. at the Body Works Spa. The cost is $15 and includes a vita-flex session. Nikki is available on Wednesday’s from 9 a.m. - 6 p.m. at the Body Works Spa located at 315 Alexander Street N.E. Sessions usually range from 1hr 15min to 1hr 30min. To book an appointment phone 250-833-4288. Body Works Spa will also be carrying some Young Living products.

New Administrator at Shuswap Hospice Victoria Olynik (right) relocated to Salmon Arm from Calgary in August 2014 for her husband’s career opportunity. They were thrilled for the prospect of living in a smaller community in BC. Growing up in southern Alberta her family had many vacations in BC and she loved the mountains and wildlife.

As outdoor enthusiasts Victoria and Dean enjoy canoeing, golfing, biking, hiking, renovating, reading and dogs. Their family is scattered around Western Canada and they enjoy road trips with their truck and camper for visits.

Before coming to the Shuswap Hospice Society, Victoria worked as a Learning and Organizational Development Analyst for an oil and gas company in Calgary. She also has experience as an executive assis-

tant, website coordinator, and accounts payable clerk.

Victoria is also very passionate about volunteering for various groups such as BC SPCA, Canadian Cancer Society, United Way and Heart & Stroke Foundation.

“It’s a wonderfully warm fuzzy feeling when you volunteer your time with people and pets in the community,” says Victoria.

Culture Crawl In August, the Salmon Arm Arts Centre participates in the BC Culture Crawl by matching downtown businesses with visual artists to display their work. Brochures are available at the Arts Centre as a guide for a walking tour.

Here is a listing of the 33 businesses taking part and the artists on display.

Marionette Winery - Elizabeth Warner 33. The Hive - Michele Forsythe Local Cadets Need a New Home The local 1787 Rocky Mountain Rangers Army Cadets and 222 Shuswap Squadron Air Cadets are on the search for a new meeting area. For the last eight years, since September 2007, both groups have been meeting at South Canoe Centre at 5970 – 10th Ave SE. They have known for a couple of years that the School Board was considering selling South Canoe and they would have to move. The official eviction notice came June 23rd, the last week of school. The Cadet Program is run by a partnership between the Department of National Defence and the civilian Air, Army and Sea Cadet Leagues of Canada. Although the Department of National Defence provides funding to complete mandatory training related to the Cadet Program, the Sponsoring Committees, a group of dedicated parents and volunteers run under the direction of the Air and Army Cadet Leagues, must fundraise for the costs of renting a training facility, extracurricular activities, equipment, and for Air Cadets supporting the provincial gliding and power flying programs.

They are interested in talking to people in the community who have space to rent. At South Canoe Centre they had access to a small gym for our evening program as well as a classroom with exclusive access and a small storage area. A warehouse type facility would also work for their needs. If anyone has such a space and would like to help local youth in the community, please contact Shelley Geier, chairperson of the 222 Shuswap Air Cadet Sponsoring Committee at (250) 832-2807 (home) or email chair@222air.com.

Letters to the Editor Our voting system has a history of success I do not intend to turn this into a debate in this paper. But please permit me to respond to the letter by Grieg Crockett. The misguided person in this case is you, sir. I stated the “largest voting BLOC in Canada is conservative.” Eligible voters who do not vote are not a voting BLOC! There are many trade unions in Canada. Yet over half the workers belong to no union. That does not make them the largest trade union in Canada.

Like non-voting voters, non-union workers have a multitude of reasons for their decision. Hence the second flaw in your reasoning is to assume that peo-

ple don’t vote because they do not like the election process.

Our current system has worked satisfactorily for Britain for some five centuries. It has worked well for the USA for over two centuries. And it has worked well for Canada for over a century.

The system “fair vote” is less fair than what we now have. In that system no party gains a majority so they have to cobble together a coalition. Often that has taken weeks or even months.

Then the balance of power is generally held by some interest group that barely got 10 per cent of the popular

vote. As soon as some policy they disagree with is proposed they threaten to defeat the motion. Hence you have the tail wagging the dog. This results in an election every six months or so. History shows many examples of this. A great system for the disgruntled loser types but not so good for stable government!

Your statement that the bumper stickers “stop Harper go vote” is not part of the “fair vote” platform is not true.

Did they not support it they would not allow a person or group to have it on site. Most of the rest of your rhetoric is sheer speculation.

Alfred Schalm, Salmon Arm

In response to NDP nod the new NDP government in their province.

On the other hand, the Conservative government shepherded Canada through one of the worst global recessions in half a century; we kept our homes, had jobs, and were able to sustain our families through the work provided by infrastructure programs where most necessary.

We enjoy the lowest taxation rate in 50 years, and were recently voted ‘Most admired country in the world.’

Like in the provincial election that was so wrongly predicted a ‘done deal’ in favour of the NDP, I have no doubt that the people of the North Okanagan Shuswap will once again make the right choice.

In response to the letter of July 23 by D. Sinclair who does his utmost to promote the NDP, a reminder perhaps is in order.

The NDP have left a massive debt and downgraded credit rating in every province where they have held a mandate. We in BC are still digging out from under nearly two decades later.

Most of us remember when friends and family migrated to Alberta and Ontario by the thousands, as did significant numbers of corporations, because the job and taxation climate became untenable under the NDP’s mismanagement. Our poor Albertan neighbours have had their debt doubled (doubled!) in less than two months by the students and lobbyists who form

Your backyard nightmare

Take a look out your back door to check for this invader.

Knotweed is an incredibly invasive perennial, and is classified as “noxious” under the BC Weed Control Act. There are four species of knotweed found in BC: Bohemian, Japanese, Himalayan, and Giant. Originally brought over from Asia to be used as an ornamental plant due to its bamboo-looking stems, there are several backyards where this plant still remains.

Gardeners in the region likely share this plant unknowingly, and it has been nicknamed ‘False Bamboo’. Knotweed has been found throughout Canada and BC, including the Revelstoke, Shuswap, and Columbia regions.

This invader grows extremely large and fast – with reports of it growing over 6 centimeters per day (the stems can grow up to 5 metres in height!).

Knotweed roots can grow up to 3 metres deep. If stem or root fragments are left behind or

mowed it can re-sprout, making it difficult to eradicate.

Knotweeds are a serious ecological threat to our native biodiversity and habitats.

Additionally, many social and economic impacts can result from a knotweed infestation including property or infrastructure damage.

What can you do if you find knotweed?

Getting rid of knotweed will take hard work and dedication, but it is possible. Many organizations discourage manual removal or digging because any small fragments can re-grow into several more plants. One of the most effective treatments is to use a specially-selected herbicide that will attack knotweed’s deep root-systems, and applied by a certified pesticide applicator. If any plant material is removed, it should be brought to the landfill for deep burial.

Disposal should be done carefully and responsibly in sealed bags so that plant material is

Hugh Rd Community Park Hugh Road Community Park is a lovely site with 70 meters of lakefront on White Lake. The trail winds down from the parking lot (it’s a bit steep), past two picnic benches, each with a superb view across the lake. This park was deliberately left very natural and it’s a popular perching spot for eagles and ospreys.

At the end of the trail is the best swimming spot on the lake; it has a buoyed swim area with a swim platform.

How to get there: Turn north off of the Trans Canada Highway at Balmoral Road (flashing light) 24 km west of Salmon Arm, turn right immediately on White Lake Road and proceed 7 km to Parri Road, turn left and proceed 2 km.

suitable for beginners and advanced riders. Take note of the various colour coded signs (green, blue and black) that show difficulty levels. Riders can test and hone their skills with progressive drops, table tops, pump track, balance features, jumps, and free trail rides.

Built with the help of local volunteers, it was designed by mountain bike

park designer Jay Hoots whose company is in demand all over BC and Alberta.

The park also includes washrooms and a viewing platform.

Explore the Shuswap Great Dining • Great shopping • Great fun Head to one of many parks in Enderby

Belvidere Park If you were visiting Enderby in yesteryear, you might have come by a paddlewheeler and you would have docked right where Belvidere Park is today.

The transportation is different now but this landing place is just as welcoming as Belvidere Park is home to the Visitor Centre with public washrooms, picnic tables, and a canoe launch. This is also a popular launching spot for tubing down the river. The slowest, safest, and shortest route is from Belvidere Park to Tuey Park.

Belvidere Park offers the best view of the Enderby Cliffs and Shuswap River. The park is located at 700 Railway Street, beside the Enderby bridge.

Heritage Riverwalk The Jim Watt Heritage Riverwalk winds along the Shuswap River and is lovely for a family stroll. It is paved so it’s stroller and wheelchair friendly! You can stop at the heritage information plaques posted along the way to learn a little of Enderby’s history. The picnic tables and benches along the way are perfect breaks to soak in the scenery or to enjoy a meal in the peaceful surroundings. These benches and picnic tables were donated by local residents for the enjoyment of everyone.

Wildlife sitings are common along this route and you might spot ducks, geese, song birds, blue herons, hawks, bald eagles, sockeye salmon, and the occasional river otter.

How to get there: Turn east at the traffic light in Enderby off Highway 97 on Railway Street, and park at the Visitor Centre on your right.

You can access the Heritage Riverwalk here.

Riverside Park Riverside Park is at the north end of the River Walk. It has a playground, washrooms, baseball diamonds, a grandstand, and a large gazebo perfect for outdoor events such as weddings and parties. The Enderby arena and curling rink are also located at Riverside Park. The park is right beside Riverside RV Park.

If you would like information on renting the ball diamonds or the Lions gazebo contact recreation@ enderbychamber.com Barnes Park This large, grassy acreage has a heated outdoor pool, splash pool, picnic tables, playground, and a large area for outdoor sports. It’s a great place to ‘park’ yourself for the day. Bring your picnic basket and enjoy some rest & relaxation. Flush toilets and hot showers are located in the outdoor pool facility.

And if all this isn’t enough, there is also a great skate park which was designed and built with input from

A waterwheel and flume were

built here in 1911 by Sam Polson to irrigate the surrounding farmland, giving the park its local nickname, the “Waterwheel.”

In 1979, the four acre park was made a public beach and picnic area when it was donated to the City of Enderby by Mr. Jay Tuey.

J. Tuey Park is located on a bend in the Shuswap River at the north end of Enderby. The water at this point in the river is especially calm and shallow, but swimmers are advised to keep a

The right to bare chests

In Canada, wherever a man can go topless, a woman can go topless too. I didn’t discover that until two summers ago after I asked Walter Gray, the mayor of Kelowna at the time, about topless laws within our city.

Although the video was an obvious satire with my pixilated chest and the mayor’s cooperation, news of the interview went viral, and was covered by media outlets all over the world.

The reaction was mixed. Some people thought it was hilarious and pointed out the inequality between the sexes, and others called me an attention-seeking whore and lovely stuff like that.

I didn’t care. People, especially in Kelowna, now knew about our equality rights in Canada, and women who chose to go topless wouldn’t be wrongfully told to cover up by the police any longer.

But two years was a long time ago I guess, because a young woman named Susan Rowbottom and her friend were told to do just that by a Kelowna RCMP officer last week at Mushroom Beach, a secluded area on the other side of the bridge from City Park.

“He told us it was a city ordinance and he could issue a ticket,” she explained. “He said if we didn’t obey, we could get in trouble.”

Fairly certain he was incor-

rect, but not wanting to make a scene, she and her friend put their tops back on and Susan decided to check later.

The first phone call she made was to the RCMP where a woman told her that it was definitely illegal. ‘It’s not Germany,” she said impatiently. “Obviously there’s laws against it.’” When asked which laws she was breaking she was told to call the bylaw office.

Susan contacted the City of Kelowna and Stephen Fleming, a city clerk, informed her it was legal across Canada. She then called the RCMP back to let them know.

“I didn’t want to be a jerk about it,” she said. “But the police shouldn’t be enforcing a law that doesn’t exist.” After being put on hold three times the same woman she’d talked to previously confirmed it was in fact legal and abruptly hung up.

In interviews, Joe Duncan, the media relations officer for the Kelowna RCMP, confirmed there’s no law for simply being topless and arrests are rare, usually only occurring if the subjects do something sexual. He said in most cases police might ask women to put their shirts back on if there are children around, but it is more of a courtesy than a legal issue.

“The problem with that is it’s condoning discriminatory appli-

cation of the law,” said Melody Anne Kaiser, a frequent sunbather at Mushroom Beach who’s well versed in topfree equal rights and has defended many women from being harassed. “It’s in violation of our constitution, as Section 15.1 of the Charter states individuals are to be held equally before and under the law. This means law enforcement must apply the law without discrimination, and women, who are citizens of Canada, possess the right to receive equal protection and benefit from the law.”

Susan said she doesn’t like the idea of making people feel uncomfortable, but she doesn’t perceive topless women as being a threat to children.

“I want my kids to grow up and not sexualize a woman’s body,” she said. “I want them to focus on who they are as people.” As the mother of a four year old son who she breastfed well into his toddler years, she’s used to the judgment and rude treatment of others.

“Unless my son was sleeping, I didn’t cover him up while breastfeeding,” she said. “And some people had a big problem with that.”

Personally, I went through a similar experience and even had a close friend telling me that I was obviously breastfeeding for my own sexual pleasure when

my son was over a year old. “He has teeth,” she said. “He should only be eating real food.”

Breastfeeding provides an intimate bond with a child that transcends the purpose of nutrition, but it was in no way sexual for me, or any breastfeeding mother I’ve ever known.

That’s how sexualized a woman’s chest has become in North America, though. The primary function of breasts seems lost on too many in our society.

“My son thinks nothing of it when I, or any other woman is topless,” Susan said. “Children who are uncomfortable with this natural state of being are usually learning it from their parents.”

I grew up with a nudist for a father, so seeing naked men and women at the clothing optional

beach didn’t faze or harm me or my brother when we were kids.

After giggling about it initially, we quickly learned that we’re all nude under our clothes and the human body is nothing to be afraid of.

Women should be able to exercise equal rights without being called classless, slutty, stupid or any other derogatory word. If people want to discriminate against them for being topless in areas where it’s acceptable for men to be topless, what is acceptable for men should be re-examined.

Perhaps bikini tops for everyone is the solution? That could be fun.

Gladys Ellen Harrigan 1921 – 2015

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Gladys Ellen Harrigan. She was born on her family farm to Van and Abbie Seymour on October 7, 1921.

She married Charlie Harrigan on August 8, 1941 and they were married almost 60 years until his death in June 2001.

Charlie and Gladys had 3 daughters; Sharon Schaab (Vern), grandchildren Travis, Trevor and Troy); Norma Hobbs, grandchildren Darren, Lisa and Janet; Trudy Greenwood (Dave), grandchildren Blaine, Mark, and Jason.

Gladys went to Hillside Village in 2012 where she had excellent care until her passing on July 30, 2015.

Respecting her wishes, there will be no formal service.

Online condolences may be sent through Gladys’ obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com

1926 - 2015 Ada passed away peacefully on July 31, 2015 in the Hillside Care Home in Salmon Arm. She was predeceased by her loving and devoted husband of 64 years, Martin, in 2011.

Ada and Martin immigrated to Canada from Germany in 1952. They enjoyed a long life together filled with hard work, enterprise and adventure, living in Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia.

Mourning Ada’s loss are her children, Wulff-Dietrich (Lorna), Freia (Bob) and Diana (Darrel), as well as three grandchildren, Nadya Shaffer, Garrett Genest and Kurt Genest.

Ada’s ashes will be interred together with Martin’s ashes in Mt. Ida Cemetery, Salmon Arm, in a private ceremony at a later date.

Online condolences may be sent through Ada’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com

Edwin Duncan Shields 1930 – 2015 Edwin Duncan Shields of Salmon Arm, BC, passed away on Saturday, August 1, 2015 at the age of 85.

Edwin was born to parents Jeremiah and Jean on May 9, 1930 in Winnipeg, Manitoba. His first three years were spent in Quibell, Ontario before his family moved west to the Prince George area of BC. It was in Prince George he met the love of his life, Carol Wilkins. They were married September 18, 1954 and had three daughters.

Edwin enjoyed working hard in a variety of jobs in sawmills, logging, truck driving and operating heavy equipment. In 1978, Edwin and Carol moved to Salmon Arm where he built his third family home.

Edwin is survived by his wife Carol and daughters Debra, Roxana and Lynn (Darrel) Collins, grandchildren Ari, Malcolm, Gabriel, Michaela, Trevor and Spencer, sisters Audrey Brotherston, Betty Walker, June (Dick) MacEachern and Eleanor Perri, his sister-in-law Georgina and numerous nieces and nephews. He is preceded in death by his parents, Jeremiah and Jean, his brothers Jeremiah, Everad, Ken, Stanley and Alvin, his sister Agnes and grandson Tyler.

The family is grateful to all the home care nurses and care givers, hospice volunteers and a special thank you to Dr. McDonald for all your comforting care for Edwin.

Edwin’s warm, welcoming ways and sense of humour will be missed by all who knew him.

Friends and family are invited to attend a celebration of Edwin’s life on August 10th at 2:00 pm at Broadview Evangelical Free Church, 350 30th St. NE, Salmon Arm, BC. The family is grateful for the condolences, but declines flowers.

Arrangements entrusted to Fischer’s Funeral Services & Crematorium Ltd, Salmon Arm, 250 833-1129. Email condolences and share memories of Edwin through his obituary at www.fischersfuneralservices.com.

Eila Josephine Laitinen April 29, 1931 - July 29, 2015 Mom, you did it - you finally made the Obituaries!

You always flipped to the Obituaries first in the papers, and although your family is profoundly sorry to have to write this, we are also happy that you are in peace.

Eila grew up in Gleneden, where, as a girl, she loved to share pies cooling on the window pane with her dog, and was a crack shot at downsizing the squirrel population. She also showed early potential as a wheeler-dealer, once trading a bicycle for a pump organ. She also liked to take walks in the forest behind her house, and having the occasional tea party there.

After high school, her family moved to Salmon Arm from Gleneden and she started working as a secretary at the Salmon Arm Farmers’ Exchange, doing everything from shorthand, to working in the ice cream parlour, to flicking paper clips from the second floor on unsuspecting pedestrians on Saturday nights, and listening to her boss curse about coloured toilet paper. In 1953, she married Gus, the love of her life, and settled down to life back in Gleneden as a farm wife and mother.

She was also active in the community, serving as secretary for the Women’s Club, and a member of the Better Years Club.

After Gus passed away in 1979, Mom volunteered for 17 years at the CMHA Thrift Shop, where she scored many bargains, and enjoyed going for coffee and lunch with friends. As she settled down into retirement, she would putter away at home, tending to the flowers on her deck, drawing portraits of her grandchildren (and winning prizes at the Fall Fair), and showing her prowess at Rummikub.

Eila is predeceased by her mother and father, Fiina and Jacob Mack, her brothers and sisters, and her husband Gus. She leaves behind her children Karen (Lud), Kevin (Lynda), and Jim; grandchildren Michelle (Dan), Jenny (Cam), Nick (Fiona), Amy, Krissy, and Kyle; and great-grandchildren Liam and Nolan.

At her request, there will be no service. Many thanks to Dr. Skubiak and Dr. Main, and thanks beyond all measure to the nursing staff at Shuswap Lake General Hospital, who were the most graceful of guides on her final journey. In lieu of flowers, as Mom liked to practice, please hug someone you love, and be kind to others.

Online condolences can be sent through Eila’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com

Sign of the timeS

Gail and Ron LaGrange of Sunnybrae went to Iceland in June to visit the homeland of all of Gail’s grandparents. They spent 10 days on the island, and took much of that time to tour the circumference of the island on Ring Road, where Gail tracked down a number of relatives.

Gail is pictured in front of the conference centre in Reykjavik.

After their time in Iceland, Gail and Ron flew to Berlin, then on to the Czech Republic and Poland.

Gail and Ron receive $10 for having their picture printed and are entered into the Lakeshore News Travels To contest for 2015.

Mike from High Impact Signs & Designs finishes up with the new sign. Big Al’s House of Hockey will take over the old Chevy’s location at Shaw Centre.

There are more than 240 allergens, some rare and others very common. If you’re a sneezer due to pollen: close your car’s windows while driving, rather switch on the internal fan (drawing in air from the outside), and avoid being outdoors between 5am and 10 am when pollen counts are at their highest; stick to holidays in areas with low pollen counts, such as the seaside and stay away from freshly cut grass.
