Syrian relief

B.C. government liquor stores are collecting donations to help the Red Cross in its efforts to assist refugees fleeing four years of civil war and recent terrorist invasion.

Customers are asked to donate $2, $5 or multiples of that amount. Red Cross is providing emergency supplies to Syrian refugees including food, water, clothing, temporary shelter and hygiene items.

The federal government has established a $100 million fund to match donations from individual Canadians and registered charities, from now to the end of 2015. The B.C. government has also established a $1 million fund to help Syrian refugees settling in B.C. The previous donation drive by BC Liquor Stores collected $102,000 for assistance to people affected by wildfires in the Rock Creek and Oliver areas.

Lost hard drive holds 3.4M school records

By Tom Fletcher, Black Press Education ministry staff have searched in vain since this summer to locate a backup hard drive containing B.C. and Yukon student information from 1986 to 2009.

The computer memory disk contains 3.4 million public school education records, including names, postal codes, grades and personal education numbers.

Citizens’ Services Minister Amrik Virk said Tuesday there is no evidence the information has been taken or misused. After a lengthy physical search of a secure warehouse in Victoria turned up nothing, ministry electronic records continue to be searched to see if the hard drive was moved or destroyed.

Virk said there were two unencrypted backup hard drives created in 2011, contrary to ministry information and privacy rules.

Information and Privacy Commissioner Elizabeth Denham has been notified and is investigating.

“There’s no doubt that a mistake was made, first in how the hard drive was created, and secondly, how it was stored,” Virk said. “This should not have happened.”

The drive also more than 9,000 personal education numbers for children in govern-

ment care, connected to information such as health and behaviour issues. This sensitive personal information could be connected to names by comparing the personal education numbers to names through the larger data file.

NDP education critic Rob Fleming said Virk is coming forward after several weeks because he doesn’t believe the missing hard drive will be found.

“For government to admit this has happened is not good enough,” Fleming said.

“They have to tell us how and why it happened, and the minister specifically has to say why he failed to do his job.”

The government has set up a phone contact centre through Service BC for specific inquiries about the data breach. The centre is open 7:30 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday to Friday, and callers should be prepared to say when they attended public or post-secondary schools in B.C. In Victoria, call 250-387-6121. In Metro Vancouver, 604-660-2421. Elsewhere in B.C. call 1-800-663-7867.

Federal leaders spar on economy

By Tom Fletcher, Black Press The three contenders for the prime minister’s office clashed in their second debate Thursday evening in Calgary, where slumping oil prices and industry layoffs framed a discussion on the economy.

NDP leader Tom Mulcair accused Conservative Stephen Harper of having a “rip and ship approach” to natural resource development, adding that Harper “put all of his eggs in one basket, and then dropped the basket.”

Harper said it is “simply false” that the oil industry’s woes represent the entire economy, and overall it continues to perform well and produce more tax revenue despite a 40 per cent reduction in small business taxes and other tax cuts.

Liberal leader Justin Trudeau said his plan also includes reduction in small business taxes, and he emphasized he is the only leader willing to raise personal income taxes on the wealthiest one per cent of income earners, to finance a cut for the middle class.

Moderated by David Walmsley, editor of The Globe and Mail, the debate drew out differences between the three established party leaders on several topics.

Greenhouse gases: • Mulcair favours a cap-and-trade system, but he avoided questions about what his system would cost the economy or consumers. The NDP will

“enforce overarching sustainable development legislation,” he said.

• Trudeau defended his position that each province should address emissions in its own way. He said Mulcair wants to impose a national bureaucracy, including on B.C., which Trudeau called a world leader in use of carbon tax.

• Harper said carbon taxes are about revenues to government, not the envi-

ronment. He said under his 10-year administration, Canada has seen a decline in emissions while the economy grew, adding that his government invests $1 billion a year in alternative energy.

Infrastructure: • Trudeau defended his plan to run three deficits of up to $10 billion to finance roads and other infrastructure, with interest rates at a low ebb and Canada’s debt relative to the size of the economy declining.

• Mulcair called Trudeau’s plan “reckless and uncosted,” while the NDP calls for steady investment over 20 years.

Someone do a good deed for you?

• Harper said over 10 years, his government has spent 15 times what the previous Liberal government spent on infrastructure. That includes record deficits for public works projects in the wake of the 2009 economic crisis.

Taxation: • Harper said the other parties promise tax relief for small businesses, but their plans to increase Canada Pension Plan and Employment Insurance premiums amount to a payroll tax 10 times as big as their small business tax cuts.

• Mulcair said he will raise income tax from 15 to 17 per cent for large corporations, but he believes individuals are paying their fair share now. Mulcair reminded viewers that Trudeau has supported Conservative budgets, and his first vote in Parliament was to support Harper’s tax “giveaway” to big business.

• Trudeau emphasized that his is the only plan that increases taxes for bank executives and other wealthy individuals as well as on banks, while reducing income tax on the middle class.

Green Party MP Elizabeth May wasn’t invited to the Globe debate, but chipped in with videos on her Twitter account. In one, May noted that there was no discussion of “investor state agreements” such as one with China that have intruded on Canada’s sovereignty.

oats, especially oat bran, as cereal helps to lower cholesterol. Oats are therefore a heart-healthy cereal.

Oats have silicic acid esters which are good for the skin. Many people apply oats during bathing to soothe dry skin, treat psoriasis, inflammation, itchiness, eczema and insect bites. Oats are also used in Aveeno products such as body lotions, for the benefits to the skin. These lotions are safe for adults as well as children.

When the oat tops are harvested in their milky stage, they are known as milky oats. Milky oats have additional health benefits. They have anti-anxiety and energizing effects. Oat straw is the stem of the oat that is known to have calming effects, so is helpful for people dealing with stress and fatigue.

Herbalists often add oat straw in the formulas to treat erectile dysfunction, depression, and in the treatment of certain withdrawal symptoms from addictions like nicotine, valium, and alcohol. Herbalists also consider oat straw to be a good nervine tonic (for the nervous system).

It’s best to consult a health care practitioner to understand what type of oats you need and for which health conditions. People with gluten allergies are cautioned against the consumption of oats.

Oats have many more health benefits. Cold weather is rolling in, and oats in a warm porridge can be a good food to start your day.

SO

When it comes to improving your health, nearly every person understands the importance of regular exercise, a healthy diet, stress management, and striving for sufficient rest and sleep. However, an important and often overlooked activity that also benefits your health is regular stretching.

When you observe a person’s “regular” weekly routine, it soon becomes evident that most people are creatures of habit when it comes to their physical activity. Whether it is one’s occupation or leisure time, most people put their body through fairly repetitive and usually quite limited ranges of motion. And the worst offender for this limited movement is from excessive sitting.

Incorporating regular stretching into your daily routine will have a lasting benefit to your overall health and wellness. When muscles, joints, and ligaments are regularly moved through their full range of motion (stretched) they experience a number of benefits. In addition to increasing overall mobility and adaptability, regular stretching also improves circulation to deliver increased amounts of oxygen and nutrition to tissues. Regular stretching has also been found to reduce stress; a benefit every person needs today.

In order to achieve the greatest benefits from a stretching routine, a few simple practices should be followed. First, think of this exercise as a journey, not a destination. If you have never stretched before, you cannot expect to be a yoga master by next week. Understand that in order to stretch and lengthen tissues and joints, it must be a gradual process. Stretching too aggressively can result in sprains and strains, which will put a hold on your self-help efforts. It should also be noted that stretching is not just a physical activity. Focussing your mind and calming your breath while visualizing the lengthening of the muscle being stretched will increase your success, while at the same time greatly reduce stress.

If you are not currently scheduling a few minutes a day to stretch, then now is the time to begin. If you already regularly stretch on your own at home, or have discovered the benefits of regular yoga or pilates, congratulations and keep it up! Finally, if you are wondering if your old bones are up to the task of stretching or are concerned about injuring yourself, I would also recommend a chiropractic assessment and spinal x-rays to know if there are any activities that you should avoid and which areas of the body need more attention. Regular chiropractic adjustments will also greatly improve your range of motion to make a stretching program easier and more effective.

Looking back through history: SALMON ARM AMALGAMATED ON SEPT. 1, 1970 For the first time in 58 years, Salmon Arm residents were citizens of one single community, stated a front-page article in one of the local papers. The one square mile had been formed in 1912 when the City of Salmon Arm broke away from the 1905 Salmon Arm Municipality, and the two Salmon Arms were one again. The downtown wanted water, sidewalks, street lights, etc., which the outlying agricultural areas did not choose to support.

Unlike today (1970), the article stated the Municipal Act did not make it possible for benefitting area to pay for their own improvements. “If the city area was to acquire the services it needed, it could only do so by withdrawing from the municipality.”

IT TOOK THREE VOTES FOR THE AMALGAMATION Serious talk of reuniting the city and the municipality of Salmon Arm first began in 1962, according to the article. It resulted in a number of studies, meetings and proposals.

“These culminated in amalgamation votes in 1965 and 1967, which narrowly failed to achieve the required 60 per cent approval; and in the successful June 1970 vote.

“Municipal officials are optimistic that unity will prove to the overall benefit of the community, simplify many of the problems which face any growing municipality, and open the door to a type of orderly development and planning which Salmon Arm has never known in its 58 years of division.”

SALMON ARM’S INTERIM COUNCIL MET SEPT. 14, 1970 The interim council, including all sitting members of both the former village and district councils, met on Sept.

14. The Sept. 2, 1970 newspaper article stated: “The 11-member body will be headed by mayor Martin Budziak of the old district, while former village mayor Victor Nancollas will serve as his deputy. A new council of six aldermen and a mayor will be elected in December and will take office on the first Monday following Jan. 1, 1971.

“Unity of the two previous communities was approved by residents of both by a margin of 1,200 to 573 in a referendum held June 20.”

LAURIE’S DUE DATE IS NEAR, SHE’S STILL WORKING Laurie Ljubojevic is due to have a baby on October 8, but she is still teaching yoga classes in Salmon Arm and Sicamous.

She wrote: “Most yoga teachers are in their twenties and have more energy than me, however, by the grace of God I’m still able to manage teaching almost right up to my due date!” Like some mothers who are teaching in Sicamous, Laurie will probably bring her baby to class and keep teaching with hardly a break.

I BROUGHT MY CAR HOME MONDAY EVENING After four weeks in Calgary, the 2008 SmartCar is back in my yard where it belongs. On Sunday I took the night Greyhound bus to Calgary, which I wouldn’t do again at my age. I got there are 4:40 a.m.! The Mercedes Benz shuttle took me to the dealership in SE Calgary, and before too long I was on my way home to Salmon Arm. After a few stops for naps, at book stores with the Seymour Arm book, and a usual visit with management at Three Valley Gap, I was home at dusk. With a new part from Germany and another from Calgary, the car works beautifully!

Thank you to Budget for the car rental the first week, to the transit drivers who provided efficient rides on their schedules, to Salmon Arm Taxi, and to my friends. I will always remember you.

A CONNECTION BETWEEN SUGAR INTAKE & CANCER RISK Dr. Adam McLeod, a naturopath in Vancouver who is known as Dreamhealer, tells patients who are trying to fight cancer or prevent its recurrance, to reduce sugar intake. Cancer cells respond very rapidly to insulin and they will always be more effective at grabbing sugar from the blood stream and utilizing it as an energy source. Cancer cells will always grab the sugar before normal cells due to this fundamental shift in their metabolism. From www.hans.org e-newsletter.

BUTTER IS OK, BUT MARGARINE MIGHT KILL YOU A McMaster University professor found that trans fats found in processed food such as margarine, raise the risk of death by 34 per cent in less than a decade. An article in The Telegraph, Aug. 12, states trans-fats are mainly produced industrially from plant oils for use in margarine, snack foods and packaged goods.

The British Medical Journal published research that shows death rates from heart disease have fallen in the UK by about 55 per cent since 1997 despite the rise in obesity. This may be due to fewer trans fats and more omega-3 fatty acids. sallys1@telus.net • 250-832-4831 The views and opinions expressed in this article are those of Sally Scales and do not necessarily represent those of Lakeshore News and its staff.

ful of safety on the road. I also know that all collisions are the result of one or more of four reasons: 1. lack of courtesy, 2. lack of patience, 3. lack of attention, and 4. mechanical failure.

My own driving record is very good and I work hard to keep it that way.

Minimum wage hike

Black Press B.C.’s minimum wage has risen 20 cents to $10.45 an hour, the first annual increase since the the provincial government tied it to the B.C. consumer price index.

It’s the first increase since 2012, when the wage was increased to $10.25. For restaurant and pub servers, the minimum wage rises from $9 to $9.20.

Jobs Minister Shirley Bond has said the discount from the general minimum wage will remain at $1.25 to account for income earned in tips.

NDP labour critic Shane Simpson called the increase “dismal” and “paltry.” B.C. Federation of Labour president Irene Lanzinger said by the end of 2015, B.C. will have the second lowest minimum wage in Canada.

“Seattle will reach $15 an hour by 2017, Alberta by 2018,” Lanzinger said. “B.C.’s minimum wage will reach $15 per hour by 2034.”

An Ideal River Boat!

Found Something?

by Daron Mayes

Thank you Victoria

The MSP (Medical Services Plan) “over-payments” are beginning to flood into the Shuswap!

A lady called our office a couple weeks back and told us she had read our article last spring and had just received a cheque for over $5,000. A gentleman stopped by the office and told us he had received over $4,500 back from MSP. Those are just a couple of the stories we’ve heard. I’m sure there are a lot more!

Remember, if your combined family income has dropped for any reason (retirement/loss of a job); be sure to look into whether you are entitled to MSP premium assistance. There are a couple different things that go into the formula, but in general if your combined family income is less than $40,000 you may qualify and should look into it.

Another way we can drag some money out of Victoria and back to the Shuswap is the BC Training and Education Savings Grant or BCTESG. We reminded you about it in an article this past March and alas; it is finally here.

The BCTESG is the one-time provincial government grant available to BC residents who have an RESP (Registered Education Savings Plan). The grant is $1,200 and is for children born after January 1, 2007. So if you are like me and your last child was born in 2006; tough luck!

The BCTESG was announced a couple years ago and they’ve finally worked out the administrative kinks. So as of August 15th it is now available.

You have to apply for the grant before the child’s 9th birthday. However, if the child was born in 2007, 2008 or 2009 there are some extensions in place due to delay of rolling out the program.

Either way, if you have children born 2007 or later you need to look into this program. It’s “free” money that can be used for your child’s education.

So there you have it; once again Mall Arkey is leading the charge to bring tax dollars back into your wallets. A simple pat on the back is fine, but we do like chocolates!

Letters to the Editor Correction required

Just to set the record straight, the Liberal Party is not cancelling income-splitting for pensioners, as is alleged in a September 18 letter to the editor written by Ron Dash. Voters who do not take the time to verify for themselves what they read or hear second-hand are at risk of supporting a candidate or party that does not represent their choices in the upcoming election. The best way to address any policy concern is to go directly to the party, either by contacting your local candidate’s campaign office or visit the party website.

ITA continues to support local trades training

SALMON ARM – The North Okanagan Shuswap School District will receive $30,000 from the Industry Training Authority (ITA) for Secondary School Apprenticeship (SSA) program support for the 2015-16 school year.

The funds will support the School District 83 in placing SSA students in Grades 10, 11 and 12 with local employers to attain practical experience.

Students will “earn while they learn” and gain credit towards their high school diploma and the apprenticeship portion of their trades training.

“The funds that we receive from the ITA are directly used to support existing youth apprentic-

es in their journey to complete Red Seal trade certification and to engage students, employers and parents in navigating and sharing the benefits of youth apprenticeships,” says Mark Marino, School District 83 district career supervisor. “The funds provide school staff with valuable time to build connections and liaise with members of their communities.”

“Career programs are very important in the North Okanagan Shuswap School District and for the region in general,” Shuswap MLA Greg Kyllo says. “These program meet the needs of our students and help them prepare for life beyond high school.”

Last year’s SSA registration

numbers were the highest they have been since the 2009 pre-recession years. In 2014-15, 1,048 students registered in SSA programs across B.C., representing an increase of more than 10 per cent over 2013-14.

“The youth play a pivotal role in sustaining B.C.’s future economic boom,” says ITA chief executive officer Gary Herman.

“There are more skilled tradespeople retiring from the workforce than entering it, so we need to support the youth in trades training so they are ready to respond to the increasing demand in the labour market.”

ITA partners with the Ministry of Education to deliver four youth programs focused on

awareness building of skilled trades’ careers, practical work experience and apprenticeship technical training: Skills Exploration 10-12; Ace-It; SSA; and Yes-2It.

Letters to the Editor

My Canada is a welcoming country to all cultures

I just can’t sit on the sidelines and let people accept the Islamophobic rant from B. Campbell last week (Sept. 18/15 issue of Lakeshore News). To suggest that these people should have “chosen to move to a country that already practiced their chosen religion and ways of life” smacks of religious bigotry and supremacy. While preaching that “Canada is well know for its tolerance of others” on one hand, the letter writer then intolerantly suggests that “The majority of Canadians” believe in his or her narrow view of what Canada is. Please, for the sake of our country, let this not be true.

Canada indeed has a very long history or religions, traditions, cultures and freedoms but only some of these were established by B. Campbell’s great grandparents and grandparents. They have also been influenced long before by the first peoples of this country who since welcoming great grandpa might wish to take back that tolerant attitude given our history of persecution since. Our Canadian culture has been a work in progress for

the last three hundred years formed by those who chose this great country to flee religious or political persecution in their home country or just to make a better life economically for their family. Canada is built on the labour and dreams of Christian, East Asian, Asian, African, and Muslim peoples among others. Despite the protestations of the letter writer, our culture continues to change constantly whether you like it or not. I would suggest it is time to leave home and perhaps head to Vancouver to take in some of the rich culture and religious festivals that have been brought to our country by others.

With regard to our Muslim brothers and sisters, please stop defining their culture and religion by the remote practices of “forced sex organ surgery” and denied education found in other countries and small sects of the religion. I think we can dig up enough dirt in the fringes of Judeo-Christian religion to show this in an unattractive light too, but what some bizarre Christian sect does with multiple

marriages and the subjugation of women does not define Christianity. Also, give the culture and religion time to absorb our culture within it. Arranged marriages, strange clothing, and the separation of men and women have occurred in many religions including many branches of Christianity and is not foreign to us. I bet B. Campbell’s great-grandmother was not allowed to vote and was generally prohibited from many institutions in our great country including land ownership.

Whatever church they belonged to the governing body and ministers were (and perhaps still are) men. The notion of equality is a relatively new phenomenon in our world and Canada. Give it time.

In the meantime let’s welcome those that are different and celebrate what makes this country great. And let us welcome them to our area. We are certainly not the most culturally diverse area of the province. Let us be the most open-minded, caring, loving, and tolerant.

D. Murray, Salmon Arm

Canada is a nation still evolving

I was interested to read the letter by B. Campbell (Sept. 18/15 issue of Lakeshore News) and could not help but notice the parallel to what might have been written some 300 years ago about some other migrants seeking a new life.

“One of the concerns surrounding newly arrived people from other countries is their wanting to introduce all of their religious beliefs (Christianity in all of its forms) and customs (witch hunts, intolerant class value system, dogmatism, the inquisition by the Catholic church) from their previous homelands. Prior to immigrating, the applicants may have known or would have quickly become aware that Kanata’s laws, values, traditions, and practices differed from the ones that they were leaving. These differences range from religion, culture and how an individual lives. In spite of the differences these individuals (hundreds of thousands all from Britain and Europe) chose to immigrate to Kanata.”

Not withstanding B. Campbell’s other comments in the letter, everyone now knows or should know what happened next to the indigenous people as a direct consequence of “all their immigrants’ religious beliefs and customs being introduced” in a Draconian manner right up to the final closure of the last Canadian government-run Indian residential school in 1996.

Natural assimilation takes more than a generation – look at the excellent example of the boat people from Vietnam and the obstacles they have overcome in 40 years. Canada is a nation still evolving, so let us not go down a path seeking national purity. Our more recent history is guiding us towards a truly liberal civic nationalism not based on common ethnic ancestry, but a political entity whose core identity is not ethnicity.

For contemplation.

James Roberts, Blind Bay

Think about the debt we’d have to cover

Back in 1995, I had the extreme pleasure of being one of five Kelowna residents that took exception to Mr. Paul Martin’s concept of paying down the government deficit by increasing personal income tax.

Our approach was to start a letter writing campaign to Mr. Martin and Mr. Cretien that outlined our views and our intended action, should he (they) carry out their plans. Suffice it to say that the campaign met with unbelievable success, and the only increase in taxation that year was one cent per litre of gasoline! (you’re welcome) As I understand it, the problem was that the deficit had been created by Mr. Martin’s own party when a previous leader had scooped the idea of deficit financing from observing our neighbours down to the south, while under the leadership of Mr. Ronald Reagan. It seemed to be working for them, so why not us?

Well, by 1995, it was my understanding that Canada’s deficit had risen to something in the neighbourhood of thirty-four billion dollars. (That’s $34,000,000,000!) Where is it now? I’m not sure.

But what is the significance of a thirty-four billion dollar debt?

Let’s put it into a different perspective. Let’s start with only one billion dollars, and let’s suppose that you owed someone one billion dollars, and let’s

suppose that you decided to retire the debt at the rate of one dollar per second. Let’s do the math!

To retire your debt at the rate of $1/second, that would mean $60 per minute, $3600 per hour, or $86,400 per day! Looks like this shouldn’t take too long, eh? But let’s continue.

At $85,400 per day, that would mean $31,536,000 per year! (that’s thirty-one million, five hundred and thirty six thousand dollars per year!) Now if you divide one year’s payment into the billion dollars that you owe, you’ll discover that it will only take 31.7 years to retire your debt at the rate of $31.5 million dollars per year! Now, the real problem with all of this is simply that with debt comes “interest”...and we haven’t even begun to do the math on that!

So, the next time you hear your candidate in the upcoming elections, talking in terms of all the money they plan to spend in order to “buy” themselves that comfy seat in Ottawa, try to remember that it’s your money that they plan to spend, and you, and your descendents will be saddled with covering the debt!

When the government says they’re spending tax money to give you something for free, look out! It’s your money they’re spending, so “it ain’t free!”

Vote as you please, but VOTE! Ron Long, Silver Creek

Letters to the Editor

Canada is not drying up

Gertrude and I just spent two weeks travelling in southwest Saskatchewan and southeast Alberta. We were amazed at the number of lakes and sloughs in that area and to notice that every one was brim full of water. On Highway 6 going north from Regina, there was one place where the water was encroaching onto the highway. If this were a regular occurrence I’m sure the highways department would have built up the road there. Most farmers have enough intelligence not to build a barn where it might end up standing in water. Yet we saw a farm where the barn had to be at least fifty years old and was standing in two feet of water. We noticed a slough about every fifty to one hundred meters along the highway full of water. We spoke with some farmers in the area who told us last fall was the wettest harvest season in memory. It may turn out that this year will be wetter.

If you have read the book “Men Against the Desert,” or grew up in that region, you will know that it is in the heart of what is known as the “Palliser Triangle.” You will also know that during the 1920s and 1930s, this area had become desert, was blowing away, and water was non-existent. Yet here we are almost one hundred years later and it is one vast wetland.

Why am I reporting this? It is to let all the “climate Chicken Littles” know that Canada is not drying up! Climate changes, has for centuries, and will continue.

It is good to be concerned about doing what we can to save water and maintain a good climate. But when it comes right down to it, we have very little control as to when and how much rain/snow we get and ultimately that determines our wetlands. Decided I would share this good news with our “Chicken Little” friends.

Alfred Schalm, Salmon Arm

Seeking accounts of poor care or neglect

Will you care for your parents when they need you? I know many seniors in facilities that rarely see their family. Maybe you’re just too busy with your job and your kids. And when you do see them it can be rather unpleasant because they are often miserable and complain about everything. And what do they have to complain about? Don’t they have medical professionals at their beck and call?

No. In many facilities they do not. Government facilities have insufficient staff and services such as therapy, due to a lack of funding. Whereas many privately owned “facilities for profit” choose to neglect our seniors. After all, their investors are expecting those large dividends. And this government allows this “business of neglect” by refusing to enforce adequate standards of care.

My research has proven that the senior health care system has been going downhill for years.

What level of care will the system provide for you in the future? The citizens of this province must stop this decline, now. Our future depends upon the protest that we make, now. We must raise our voices to a level that can no longer be ignored by this government.

Anyone with a personal account of abuse or neglect of a loved one in a facility can make a difference by emailing me their story which I will forward to the government. Please remember that children learn by example. If they see that you have not taken the time to protect your loved ones, will they protect you? judygalley0@gmail.com Judy Galley, Sorrento

with the rest of the province with only 1 of 42 Conservatives filling out the questionnaire; almost all candidates for the other three parties did so. Many passers-by were puzzled or dismayed by the Conservatives’ lack of openness.

People wanted information on the 2014 changes in voter registration requirements under the new elections act which make it more difficult for some people to vote. We encourage everyone to see if they are registered and if not, to register online (www.elections.ca), or at the Elections Canada offices in Vernon and Salmon Arm. We were struck by both the degree of uncertainty of voting intentions, and the willingness of voters to consider voting for parties for whom they had never before voted.

We carried out an informal poll, where passers-by were encouraged to vote with a spoonful of water in the jar of the party of their choice.

We performed the exercise three times over the course of the IPE. In the first result, the Conservatives narrowly beat out the NDP. In the second and third polls, the NDP came out ahead.

It’s certainly not a scientific poll, but an indication of the mood of the people who came up to speak with us at the IPE. Eli Pivnick, Vernon

Letters to the Editor

My MP should show gumption

As difficult as it may be for Mr. Fred Engels to believe while he wallows in his “utter disgust and contempt” for what he claims is my opinion, I made no insinuation as to whether or not I view lawyers or university professors as being “much more qualified to represent the people of this riding in Ottawa.” Sadly, most MPs no longer represent their ridings in Ottawa. They stand up to vote when called upon.

William Shakespeare in “Henry the Sixth,” wrote, “The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers.” I have personal experience with both lawyers and university professors, ranging from very good to very very bad. I wrote following Sally Scales’ column claiming that Mel Arnold was the only candidate who was still working, which I did not believe to be true. Does this depend on how you define the word “working”?

Do I consider education a matter worthy of consideration? It could influence my vote, and it is certainly something that makes me check the abilities and background of a candidate. Education can be no more than lipstick on a pig. It does not guarantee wisdom or courage. Do I believe that other people are going to vote based on education alone? Yes. Do I know how they are going to vote? No. Do I believe that a Conservative MP from our riding will ever be anything more than a rubber stamp for Stephen Harper? No. How then does Mel Arnold manage to “speak for me” when

Write us!

all he will be allowed to say is “yes, sir!”?

Did Colin Mayes? Ask MP Brent Rathgeber about this. Do I believe there will be a Conservative majority? That would require one humongous political rabbit being pulled from the hat.

Mr. Engels has joined Sally Scales in supporting Mel Arnold for opposition backbencher. That is their choice. I agree that anyone running as the Conservative candidate should be “someone who is not afraid of getting his hands dirty.” Whether or not that qualifies them to be an MP is or should be a matter for serious debate. Would anyone choose a heart surgeon or an airline pilot for that reason, and if so, why? I’ve butchered deer. How different can it be? The only job Stephen Harper ever had was mail boy in Imperial Oil Calgary, and he has always tried to avoid personal responsibility for dirty hands, yet they support him. Was Stephen

Harper “good to go” with bribery?

This may sound naive, but I would like an MP who would be willing to show some gumption and tell the party that he or she does not support the party line and cannot vote according to something which has been decided by the spin doctors running the party because it is in direct opposition to the wishes and best interests of his or her constituents.

That would be leadership.

Or suicide. Remember Lac Megantic? Would Mel Arnold commit political suicide for us, or let us fry? Do we get to choose the barbecue sauce?

The question Mr. Engels should now consider is “Do I believe that any of the candidates currently seeking to be our MP show signs of such moral fibre?” I will answer that question at the ballot box, as I hope will you all.

Floating lanterns to mark Rivers Day

Love & Mercy

Presenting an unconventional portrait of Brian Wilson, Love & Mercy explores the two eras of The Beach Boys’ lead singer and songwriter’s life when his creative process was both at its peak (set in the 1960s and portrayed by Paul Dano) and its most suppressed (set in the 1980s and portrayed by John Cusack). In his youth, he tirelessly searches for the perfect sound to keep his music original and ahead of the competition, all driven by an obsession to please his abusive father that slowly drives him to a mental breakdown that haunts him for decades. It is 20 years

including many children from M.V. Beattie and Shihaya Schools, will be lit and set to float in the current. With the aid of kayakers and canoeists, the lanterns will be guided past the bridge to an area where they can be taken out of the river by volunteers. (If you are interested in bringing a boat and going down the river with the lanterns, please contact info@runawaymoon.org.

Lanterns are simple and fun to make. You can make one at home, or attend one of the remaining drop-in times: At 904 Maud Street (by the Employment Centre) Friday 2:00–5:00 p.m.; and Saturday, September 26, 11:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.

And, there will be a chance to make a last-minute lantern on Sunday between 3:00 and 5:30 p.m.

Those of you who come to see the annual Floating Lantern Celebration will have an extra treat: a lunar eclipse is predicted to occur at 7:45 p.m. on Sunday, September 27th, just as the lanterns are floating towards the bridge.

This wonderful spectacle, led by Runaway Moon Theatre, has taken place on B.C. Rivers Day several times over the past few years.

Crowds of people from the Shuswap and Okanagan areas and beyond have come to enjoy this honouring of the Shuswap River.

Please arrive at the Info Centre near the bridge in Enderby at around 6:30 p.m. The launch begins at dusk. If you are bringing a lantern, please arrive a little earlier to have the organizers ensure that it is ship-shape. Over a hundreds lanterns, made by local residents of all ages

It’s GO Time!

The first annual Copper Island Fine Homes Charity Classic was an incredible success, thanks to the efforts of enthusiastic golfers, dedicated volunteers and generous sponsors.

The event, which took place on August 28, 2015 at Talking Rock Golf Course, saw 115 golfers of all abilities come out to compete for great prizes—and to show their support for the North and South Shuswap First Responders.

The day began around noon, with a chipping and putting contest held near the practice tees. A shotgun start got the tournament underway at 2:00 p.m. sharp.

Participants entered as either part of a four person scramble team, or as individuals in the men’s and women’s low gross and low net competition.

Ironically and unfortunately, while the First Responders were helping set up for the auction they were called out to an emergency. Two of the tournament volunteers, Pat and DJ Stanford, were injured in a car accident on their way home from the golf course. The First Responders were first on the scene and were able to stabilize both of them before the ambulance arrived, once again proving how necessary their services are.

At 7:00 p.m., players moved off the course into the banquet room at the Quaaout Lodge, where they were treated to refreshments and a buffet dinner. After dinner, prizes (which ranged from Android tablets, to cordless drill sets) were awarded to the top finishers in the various categories. This was followed by the live auction and silent auction results, acknowledgement of our sponsors, and a presentation by the First Responders.

The final part of the evening saw Copper

Island Fine Homes present a cheque to the North and South First Responders for $10,000.

But this was only a preliminary amount, and in the days that followed, a post-event audit was completed and determined that the final donation would be $15,000!

“This tournament was an unqualified success,” says Greg Vistisen, President and CEO of Copper Island Fine Homes. “We’re in awe of the total community effort, from the enthusiasm and selflessness of both volunteers and participants, to the incredible generosity of our sponsors—the suppliers and sub-trades who we work with every day on our jobsites who really stepped up to the plate. Ultimately, what really matters is that we raised significant funds for our First Responders—the members of our communities who volunteer and provide critical pre-ambulance care during medical emergencies. Thank you to all who made this event such a success.”

Pictured: Greg Vistisen of Copper Island Fine Homes presents a preliminary cheque of $10,000 to Lynda Curran, South Shuswap First Responders (left), and Catherine McRae, North Shuswap First Responders. The final amount of the donation was $15,000. Photo contributed.

Terry Fox Run

Sunshine broke through the clouds long enough for approximately 150+ participants and volunteers to raise about $4,575 for the Terry Fox Run. Children, parents, pets and out-oftown visitors enjoyed a good walk or run and visiting with old friends at Blackburn Park while enjoying snacks, drinks and good music and donating to a great cause. “Terry’s dream lives on,” say local run organizers Cliff and Fran Evans, “and he would be so proud all these 35 years later. Thank you for all your support.”

You choose

If you want a valance over the kitchen window, put one up. If you want to paint one wall of your living room orange, go ahead and do it. If you still love that peculiar 1990s floor lamp whose bobbing arm tentacles seem to take over the whole room, leave it in place.

More frequently than you would think, I am asked if a particular decor item, style or element is ‘in’ or ‘out.’ I think the things that go ‘out’ – and tend not to come back – are trends. Like wallpaper borders of fruit bowls marching around the ceiling in the kitchen. Or stacked glass backsplashes. Or feature walls. And it’s probably not a bad idea, generally, to avoid these things. They can really date-stamp your home... if that’s something you care about.

Good interior decorating starts with function, and that includes how the decorating fits the lifestyle of the homeowners. If an orange wall fits your lifestyle, so be it.

I guess I shouldn’t be so hard on feature walls, but here is what I know about them: Way back, the housing boom gave us big rooms in big houses which were built quickly, seemingly without one iota of thought given to style. So there were no architectural interests in most rooms–like fireplaces or arches, or bay window seats. Just big rectangular rooms.

The B.C. government has lifted its fishing ban in the Okanagan region, joining most areas of the South Coast region where fishing was reopened earlier this week.

Fishing is reopened on the Similkameen, Kettle, Middle Shuswap and Okanagan River mainstem, after rain and cooler water temperatures reduced the risk to fish stocks.

In the South Coast region, the Seymour and Coquihalla Rivers remain closed, due to barrier restrictions from rockslides that restrict upstream migration of steelhead.

The restrictions and reopening are co-ordinated with Fisheries and Oceans Canada regulations for migratory salmon.

designdilemmas

by Linda Erlam

So, to give these rooms a focal point, we painted one wall a contrasting colour. (Eye goes to the area of greatest contrast first...). Gradually, we learned to create interest with art, area rugs, furniture groupings, spectacular beds and great accessories; the odd-coloured walls became a hindrance and were painted out. And for that I am, personally, thankful.

But that doesn’t mean you can’t have one. I’ll repeat,”If you want to paint one wall of your living room orange, go ahead and do it.”

William Morris, (the “grandfather” of modern interior design), said, “I do not believe you should have anything in your home that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful.”

So there is my rant about in and out. I’ll keep answering the question, I’m sure, but it would be really great if you would stop following trends and just do what you want to do. Do what feels right, do what makes you happy.

After all, you live in your home – not a bunch of advice-giving self-described poo-bahs.

And remember, too, that free advice is often worth what you paid for it.

Politicians split over environmental ‘rights’

By Tom Fletcher, Black Press Over vocal objections from some representatives, local politicians have narrowly endorsed a call for an “environmental bill of rights” for B.C. at their annual convention.

Calling it “an idea whose time has come,” Richmond Coun. Harold Steves sponsored the motion Wednesday at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention in Vancouver. It calls for recognition of a right to “live in a healthy environment, including the right to clean air, clean water, clean food and vibrant ecosystems.”

Steves reminded delegates of a summer of smoke from forest fires and a drought that saw his Cache Creek farm run out of water. He noted the bill of rights has been supported by 36 municipalities around B.C., after a tour of local councils by the David Suzuki Foundation’s Blue Dot campaign.

The idea was quickly challenged.

“How is this resolution going to prevent forest fires and create clean air?” North Cowichan Coun. Al Siebring asked. “It’s not.”

Williams Lake Mayor Walt Cobb dismissed the bill of rights movement as “David Suzuki propaganda” backed by urban people who don’t understand that mining and forestry provide the lumber, copper and other products that build their homes and communities.

Cobb said it already takes years of environmental review before resource extraction can be

approved, “and if this passes, it will be another nail in the coffin of rural B.C.” Chilliwack Mayor Sharon Gaetz urged support for the bill of rights, arguing it would “raise our consciousness.” Victoria Mayor Lisa Helps quoted from a presentation to council by an 11-yearold boy and joined other delegates in calling for the resolution to support future generations.

Coquitlam Coun. Terry O’Neill listed a dozen provincial laws governing clean water, air pollution, public health and food safety, calling on the convention to focus on specific measures instead of asserting rights that are actually “a demand for others to do something for you.”

Nanaimo Regional District director Julian Fell agreed, saying four of the six rights proposed to his board are actually “entitlements.” He called for the UBCM to declare that water and air should be legally guaranteed to remain public assets.

Apples, cookies, and water coolers

Hi Reena, I’m so glad you have a blog now, so I can go back on some articles you have had in the past. Also, we go away for winter, so I can keep up with you that way. I have a question: My friend had a new driveway poured, and he also had an apple tree nearby that dropped those little apples on the driveway with a splat and left dark brown marks. What would you suggest he use to remove those marks? I know it’s too late in the season now, but hopefully you can suggest something for the spring. Thanking you in advance, Elvera Dear Elvera, Sprinkle the driveway with a box of baking soda. Using a stiff brush, dampened with water. Scrub the area until the stains are gone. If the stains remain, scrub the driveway with one of the following: laundry detergent and water or TSP (trisodium phosphate) and water or washing soda and water.

Rinse. As a last resort, combat tough spills with muriatic acid and a pressure washer.

Apply the acid following the manufacturer’s directions, and let it soak for several seconds.

Keep in mind that muriatic acid is a dangerous product; if you use it, wear rubber or latex gloves, safety goggles and protective clothing; and never wash it down storm drains. Test all solutions on an inconspicuous area first.

Dear Reena, Can you please tell me how to clean wood finish cupboards? Also, what is a great recipe for ‘Monster Cookies’? Sincerely, Lorraine

Dear Lorraine, Mild dish soap and water is all that is recommended for cleaning the grease off of kitchen cupboards (just a damp clean cloth or mildly abrasive cloth and no excess water, dry immediately). This is very effective, since dish soap is created as a grease cutter.

Here is a wonderful recipe that makes six dozen ‘Best Monster Cookies’! In a bowl combine 1 cup butter, 1 and a half cups peanut butter (if you don’t like peanut butter, substitute 1 cup margarine for peanut butter), 2 cups brown sugar and 2 cups white granulated sugar. Add 4 eggs and 1 tbsp. vanilla, beat until smooth. To the batter add, 3 cups flour, 5 cups rolled oats, 2 tsp. baking soda, 1 tsp. baking powder and 1 tsp. salt. Mix until combined. Stir in 2 cups chocolate chips and 1 cup M & M’s.

Drop by tablespoons onto greased cookie sheets and bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes or until edges start to turn light brown.

Freeze leftovers. Extra tip: You can substitute peanuts or walnuts for the same amount of some of the candy.

Hi Reena, I own a water cooler that is about 10 years old. I have misplaced the directions for cleaning the inside of my cooler. I seem to remember using a bleach solution to clean the reservoir. Can you give me suggestions please? Thank you in advance, Inez Dear Inez, Health Canada recommends that you

Dr. Bruce Baker I Dr. Susi Cienciala 250.833.8585 942 Gardom Lake Rd. deepcreekvet@gmail.com Enderby, BC VOE 1V3 www.deepcreekveterinary.com

Find us on the web.... www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca and facebook Solutions&Substitutions

clean your cooler system after every bottle change. Begin by disconnecting the unit from the wall. Remove the bottle from the cooler unit. Drain the water through the blue faucet into a bucket.

Disconnect any removable parts from the unit. Wash parts thoroughly with dish soap and water. Rinse. If you have a hot and cold dispenser, plug the hot dispenser off using a cork or plug. Doing this prevents sanitizer from getting into the hot tank. Combine one gallon water and one tbsp. vinegar. With this solution, clean all of the interior surfaces of the reservoir. Let the solution sit for 7 minutes. Fill reservoir full of fresh bottle water and drain the water through the cold faucet.

Repeat three times. Remove cork from the hot tank and replace all parts. Plug unit into wall. You can use 1 tsp. bleach instead of 1 tbsp. Vinegar; however, I prefer vinegar since it is safe for consumption.

Dear Reena, A very recent column suggested that Meghan’s boyfriend’s “world’s worst manners” were primarily a result of sub-cultural variances. While I whole-heartedly agree with your explanation and solution, I am slightly bewildered by Meghan’s concern that her ill-manneredly boyfriend “leaves his napkin on the table when he goes [away] to the bathroom”. Where does she expect him to leave his napkin?

I was under the impression that the napkin should always be left on the table when leaving, for whatever reason with the only exception that the (home) hostess would

By Reena Nerbas place her napkin on her chair-seat when she arose to attend to items to or from the kitchen. Have I been wrong all these many years? Has this napkin-placing etiquette changed? Thank-you for a truly fascinating column, James Dear James, Nice that you have given this matter some thought! Manner experts advise that if you need to leave the table during a meal, place your napkin on the seat of your chair. You are never supposed to put your napkin back onto the table before the meal has ended.

According to North American etiquette, at the end of the meal the hostess picks up his/ her napkin and places it on the table to the left of his/her plate. When this occurs, guests also place their napkin on the left of their plate. This indicates that the meal is over.

Fabulous Tip of the Week: • I recently read an article about rabbits in the yard eating things we do not want them to eat. I found an excellent inexpensive, environmentally friendly and easy solution.

Grate Irish Spring bar soap just like cheese and sprinkle it around problem areas (or around perimeter of property) to keep rabbits away. Submitted by Mel I enjoy your questions and tips – keep them coming! Missed a column? Can’t remember a solution? Need a speaker for an upcoming event? Interested in grocery coupons?
