The company behind a lakefront commercialresidential development in Nelson is now preselling units in its first phase, with an eye to beginning construction in the spring.

The first eight units in Nelson Landing start at $529,000 for two bedrooms, said Allard Ockeloen of Storm Mountain Developments.

That’s a 25 per cent increase over prices announced a year ago, which Ockeloen says is due both to a rise in construction costs as well an increase in the size of the units as a result of a re-design.

Nelson Landing will be built on the old Kootenay Forest Products site. Development will be phased in over ten years, and if 40 units have been built by then, the phase-in period will be extended to 20 years to complete up to 265 units.

VALERIE ROSSI West Kootenay Advertiser

Trail hair salons are adding another dimension to styles with a pink streak in support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Luca Hair Studio is among the businesses participating in Streak for Cancer. For its third year, the salon is holding its annual pink streak party on Oct. 28. “It’s a really nice way for the ladies to interact,� said salon manager Stacey Chartres. “It almost feels like a bit of a night out of pampering and the streak is really fun.�

The party kicks off at 6:30 p.m. but for those who have other commitments that night, the salon is also booking appointments (in advance) that day.

Staff offer a semi-permanent streak, washable hair chalk or hair makeup and even a miniature manicure to make a statement. For a minimum $10 donation, clients can take part in the fun initiative to show their support for women facing breast cancer, a disease that affects over 3,000 women in the province every year. “I think everybody has been touched by cancer at least once,� said Chartres. “I just

Event raises awareness and funds for disease that affects over 3,000 women every year

think it’s a great way to bring awareness.�

In 1986, breast cancer patients had a 53 per cent chance of survival, according to the society. But thanks to an investment in breast cancer research, the survival rate is now 88 per cent. “We’ve definitely come a long way,� noted Allison McCarthy, West Kootenay Boundary revenue development coordinator for the Canadian Cancer Society.

The Cancer Society is working to increase the survival rates for all cancers, including breast cancer, by educating the public on prevention. There are simple lifestyle changes that women can make to help reduce their risk, including regular mammograms and choosing to live a healthy, active lifestyle. “When breast cancer is caught early, the chances of successful treatment are better,� says McCarthy, “and regular mammograms are the most reliable early detection tool. “Another way to prevent breast cancer, is to reduce your risks by not smoking, maintaining a healthy body weight and making sure you eat well and stay active.�

Throughout the month of October, salons across the province will be fundraising for the cause; Luca is not the only one in Trail taking part.

Aria Art of Hair held its event early this

month but is still offering pink streaks to clients receiving colour treatment. Menza Luna kicks off its party Oct. 20 from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., and All About Hair is signed up for the entire month of October.

Money raised supports services that can be accessed out of the Trail office, which just moved to a new, smaller downtown location. “We have always been strongly committed to living within our means and providing responsible leadership and stewardship of donor dollars,� said McCarthy. “With that said, our new office move has allowed us to benefit in cost savings. We can now put more money towards our mission and continue to have an office presence within Trail and the West Kootenay (region).

The new location is in the South Kootenay Business Centre at 835 Spokane St. in downtown Trail.

Support services include: • Cancer Information Service (CIS): a national, toll-free service available to cancer patients, caregivers, families and friends, the general public and healthcare professionals.

To access CIS call toll-free at 1-888-9393333. • Financial Support Program and the

Financial Support Drug Program: limited, short-term financial assistance to cover a portion of clients’ cancer-related transportation and accommodation expenses. Also, through a partnership with the BC Cancer Agency, the Trail office can assist clients with a portion of the cost of selected prescription medications that manage symptoms related to cancer treatment. • Wig room: women can browse a selection of wigs and various headwear including toques, turbans and scarves. The wig room is a free service and helps women living with cancer find wigs when they lose their hair as a result of cancer treatment. • Community services locator (CSL): a directory that helps cancer patients, caregivers and healthcare providers find the services they need. • Accommodations: the Canadian Cancer Society operates four reasonably priced lodges in proximity to cancer treatment centres in Vancouver, the Southern Interior, on the Island and Northern B.C. • CancerConnection: a service that connects people living with cancer with trained volunteers who listen, provide hope, offer encouragement and share ideas for coping all from their unique perspective as someone who’s been there.

Over the summer, trained volunteer judges travelled to participating communities to evaluate the overall contributions of municipal council and departments; industry; businesses and the private sector, including volunteer efforts, in regards to the following criteria: Tidiness, Environmental Action, Heritage Conservation, Urban Forestry, Landscape and Floral Displays.

Trail takes top spot in international competition Trail has reinvented itself as a sustainable, liveable city but hasn’t lost site of its industrial roots, if its international win in the Communities in Bloom competition is any indication.

Dan Rodlie, chair of Trail Community in Bloom (CiB), is still in shock after returning from the 2015 National Symposium and Awards Ceremonies held in Kamloops on Oct. 3.

“I’m pretty surprised,” he admitted to the Trail Times. “We didn’t really expect it because you are competing against the top communities (internationally).”

The city took home a five-bloom rating and a bronze title, based on its score of 85.3 per cent in the medium category.

Trail came out on top against fellow competitors Ahoghill, Northern Ireland, Estes Park, Colo-

rado and Jasper and Stettler, Alta.

“It’s what we’ve been striving for, for many, many years,” added Rodlie. “This is the world championship in horticulture. This is the big one.”

Communities in Bloom is a non-profit organization committed to fostering civic pride, environmental responsibility, and beautification.

Trail has participated in the program since 2002. After running through the ranks of winning provincially and nationally, the city first set out for an international title back in 2007. After a few attempts, Trail CiB went back to the national stage for a win in 2010 before looking for international bragging rights in 2011. Five years at it, and the judges that evaluated the community this past summer were impressed.

“Trail is an industrial city that has clearly reinvented itself, celebrating its rock walls beauty that beautify and shore up properties and roads,” judges Lorna McIlroy and Ted Zarudny wrote.

“Also in the figurative sense, Trail rocks with vitality, energy and enthusiasm,” they continued.

“The landscape and floral displays, the IncrEDIBLE Green Route, the historic murals and the Avenue of Clans are all assets that make the City of Trail truly (rock)!”

Each full-day workshop features a keynote speaker, leadership seminar, an intro to coaching and officiating course, on-field practice, free lunch, and more.

Nelson’s event will be led by keynote speaker Beverly Priestman, Women’s Excel U14-17 Director and U17 Head Coach for the Canadian Soccer Association.

Grand Forks will be hosting a 50th birthday celebration for its arena on Oct. 25. The celebration will include a free community skate, cake and an opportunity to view old photos and swap stories from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.

The arena was built largely by volunteers and was open to the public in October of 1965. Last year the arena was officially renamed Jack Goddard Memorial Arena in honour of one of the men instrumental in the building of the arena.

The arena has had many different tenants over the years but the main users have been and continue to be the KIJHL Border Bruins, Grand Forks Minor Hockey Association and the Grand Forks Figure Skating Club.

10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at LV Rogers High School and Nelson Indoor Soccer Facility. There is no cost for the event.

For a year now the Kootenay Boundary Regional Hospital has been offering breastfeeding support to moms, both new and experienced.

The Slurps and Burps program celebrated its one year anniversary during World Breastfeeding Week, which was celebrated Oct. 1 to 7 in Canada. The program invites moms from Trail and the surrounding area to the hospital every Tuesday for an hour and half to ask questions, share stories, and get tips on how to improve the breastfeeding experience for both mom and baby.

Dr. Trudi Toews started the program, and Bev

Harmston, perinatal educator, and Margit Hinchcliffe, an international board certified lactation consultant (IBCLC) and registered nurse who works in the maternity ward, have been facilitating it.

“It’s always been an ongoing concern in perinatal care, first of all, how many parents are breastfeeding and then how many people continue to breastfeed, and the support around breastfeeding in the community, and what that looks like around here,” said Harmston, asked about why the program was started.

Lifestyle Program supports breastfeeding moms continued from page A6

Moms can bring in their infants and get hands-on help with breastfeeding from Harmston and Hinchcliffe. There’s also a midwife who works with the group, and moms who come in can also be referred to the doctor on call, who will sometimes drop by to talk to the group.

“If the group is still going or if there are people still in the group when the doctor comes in to do the clinic, then they come in and have a chat with everybody and sort of touch base,” said Hinchcliffe.

And the KBRH will soon have even more staff who can help out with the program.

“What we’ve done is we’ve got 80 per cent of the nurses on staff en-

rolled in a breastfeeding course and they will at the end of it be what we call breastfeeding champions, so then they can actually assist in running this clinic,” said Harmston.

The moms also have the chance to talk to each other and get support.

Problems the program has helped moms with include sore nipples, engorgement, latching (how well the baby latches onto its mother’s breast), challenges with premature babies, and social support.

“The society still isn’t really supporting those breastfeeding moms as much as they should be,” said Harmston. “That attitude [that moms shouldn’t breastfeed in public] is still very out there unfortunately, so then what’s a mom supposed to do? Go in the

bathroom and sit on the edge of the toilet to feed her baby?”

“It’s ok for them [women] to show their breasts in a sexual way, but it’s not ok for them to show their breasts in a nurturing way and that’s unfortunate,” said Hinchcliffe.

Funding for the pro-

gram comes from Shared Care, a partnership between Doctors of BC and the BC Ministry of Health. It helps to pay for Harmston and Hinchcliffe’s time, since they run the program outside of their usual hours.

Harmston and Hinchcliffe plan for the program to continue, but they may have to change the day of the week that the program is offered on.

“There’s a program in Trail called Building Beautiful Babies, and it runs at the same time as this,” said Harmston, “so some of those moms might benefit from coming up here as well, but you know which one do they go to?”

For now Slurps and Burps takes place on Tuesdays on the fourth floor of the KBRH from 11:30 a.m. To 1 p.m.

NDP Leader Thomas Mulcair promises that he will not bring back the long-gun registry in a future NDP federal government.

Is he telling the truth?

Mulcair severely sanctioned MPs who dared vote for their constituents and against the NDP party line.

The long-gun registry cost Canadians over $2 billion and didn’t save a single life. Mulcair still pushes such expensive useless schemes.

Before the current election campaign started, Mulcair also said,

Mulcair’s NDP also voted against every other effort by the Conservative government to simplify our overly complex and ineffective gun regulations.

His own “policy backgrounder” says he would, “… develop a more effective, better managed system of firearms registration.”

Thomas Mulcair Policy Backgrounder, page 3

“I think that it is possible to provide the police with the tools to better protect the public and themselves by making sure they’re able to follow every gun ... That’s our bottom line.”

Toronto Sun, July 25th

If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, maybe it’s a duck?

Mulcair ordered all NDP MP’s to oppose scrapping the useless gun registry in 2012.

Should British Columbians trust Mulcair’s NDP?

Mulcair must maintain his base in Montreal and Toronto to retain power; they are the people who favour even more and stricter gun controls.

Do Mulcair’s policies reflect BC or Quebec?

Fred Wah, Leesa Dean and Sonnet L’Abbé read to a packed house at Oxygen Art Centre last Thursday.

Nelson’s Oxygen Arts Centre was filled to capacity for last week’s triple reading from Canada’s former parliamentary poet laureate Fred Wah and newcomers Leesa Dean and Sonnet L’Abbé, who were celebrating nearly 50 years of creative writing education in the West Kootenay.

Dean is the latest edition to Selkirk College’s creative writing program, while L’Abbé will be teaching the UBC course Writing from the Ground Up at the newly opened campus at 266 Baker St. The evening was hosted by Winlaw poet Tom Wayman, who along with local editor Verna

Relkoff was largely responsible for facilitating UBC’s expansion into Nelson.

“We’re really proud of how far we’ve come,” say Wayman, who also taught creative writing before the closure of David Thompson University Centre.

Dean opened the reading with “Shelter from the Storm”, a Halifax-set short story from her upcoming collection Waiting for the Cyclone, which will be released in 2016 from Brindle & Glass.

That was followed by some poetry from Sonnet’s Shakespeare, an erasure project L’Abbé is working on that involves “colonizing” Shakespeare’s text.

L’Abbé will also be serving as a writer-in-residence, and she encouraged people in the communi-

ty to come to her for creative input.

The final reading was from Wah, who taught from 1967 to 1989 in both Nelson and Castlegar at David Thompson University Centre and Selkirk College.

He shared poems from his latest poetry collection Scree, which is a sample of his early work between 1962 and 1991.

The trio then answered questions from the audience and spoke about the roles of teaching and writing in their lives.

The three of them spoke effusively about the burgeoning literary scene and shared thoughts on their creative processes and their teaching philosophies.

The event was co-sponsored but the Elephant Mountain Literary Festival.

One hundred fifteenth in a semialphabetical series on West Kootenay/ Boundary place names Lebahdo, or Lebahdo Flats, just south of Winlaw in the Slocan Valley, is interesting for a few reasons.

The name comes from Chinook jargon, a pidgin trade language of the 19th century that borrowed from English, French, and First Nations languages.

Lebahdo means ‘shingle’ and is derived from the French le bardeau.

It was so named because John Bell and A.C. Lambert built a mill there in 1905, which presumably made shingles.

After a couple of years, they moved to Taghum — another Chinook word, which means six. Bell (1858-1932), who served as Nelson’s mayor in 1925, was probably responsible for naming both.

In 1895, Bell pre-empted land at Sitkum Creek — another Chinook name, which means middle or half. However, nothing in his background explains his knowledge of or fondess for Chinook jargon, nor is he known to have taken credit for the names.

Lebahdo was added to the CPR timetable on May 6, 1906. The Henderson’s 1910 directory of BC described it as

“A flag station on the Nelson, Slocan City and Sandon branch of the CPR, 29 miles from Nelson.” However, it was misspelled Lebadho — just one of many misspellings that also include Labahdo, Leabado, Labadie, and Lebhado. The latter is how it appears on the sign for Lebahdo Road, the chief way the name has been perpetuated.

Oddly, Lebadho has the same pronunciation as the Doukhobor surname Lebedow, which means swan, but the former predates the 1908 arrival of the Doukhobors in BC. Lebahdo was previously called Watson Siding (or Watson Spur, or just Watsons) and was first mentioned in the Slocan Drill of Sept. 23, 1904: “The plans for building the new sawmill at Watsons is hanging fire on account of a hitch in the deal for the plant.” The same paper added on April 14, 1905: “A new sawmill is being erected at Watson siding 16 miles below town by Lambert and Bell.”

Watson’s was named for a family who pre-empted land on the west side of the Slocan River. It appears in the 1910 directory as Watson Spur, “a siding on the Columbia and Kootenay railway, 20 miles from Nelson.” The only listing was for the A.G. Lambert sawmill.

West Kootenay Advertiser Thursday, October 15, 2015

Place names continued from page A10

In his 1947 memoir, Alfred Gillingham Watson (1879-1949) explained that he was born in Belper, Derbyshire, England but before his second birthday, his father closed his nail manufacturing business and moved the family to Manitoba, where they homesteaded at Lake Francis during the Riel Rebellion.

Later Alfred and a brother tried ranching in Alberta, and the rest of the family joined them. They are now regarded as pioneers of Innisfail.

Tragedy befell them repeatedly: two of Alfred’s siblings died in a diphtheria outbreak and a sister died in Sandon of postpartum psychosis in 1897, leaving two young daughters. Alfred and two other siblings went to BC to help raise them.

“In March 1900, three or four of us went down to what is now Lebahdo and built a log bridge of the Slocan River to our new ranch and a log shack and cleared and drained two acres of good land,” he wrote.

The Watson family lived there until 1912, when they sold the ranch to the Doukhobors. Alfred served in the First World War and survived, but was stricken with crippling arthritis the rest of his life. He lived in Appledale until his house burned in 1942 and then moved to Nelson. Three of his children are alive, two of whom, Patricia Waters and Faye Watson, still live in Nelson.

His son Adrian kindly provided a copy Lebahdo is misspelled on the street sign that perpetuates the name. It means shingle in Chinook jargon. Greg Nesteroff photo of the memoir quoted above.

The days are growing shorter and chillier in B.C. With fall just arrived and Halloween around the corner, it’s a good time to think about the animals in your care and their safety at night. Firecrackers, fireworks and other loud noises, as well as plenty of little-people traffic in and out of the house can be upsetting to animals, and even lead to harm.

for your pet so that he doesn’t think he’s being isolated as a punishment. If your pet finds the doorbell disturbing, consider disconnecting the doorbell for the night. Alternatively, you can leave a bowl of treats near the door outside where trick-or-treaters can help themselves. That way, they won’t knock or ring the doorbell – at least not until the bowl is emptied.

“Fireworks going off, a constantly ringing doorbell and the presence of costumed strangers can all cause animals to panic, putting both pets and people in danger,” says Lorie Chortyk, BC SPCA general manager of community relations.

Identification: Make sure your pet is wearing identification. Dogs and cats may try to run away if they feel threatened. Clear, current identification is your best chance to have them returned to you.

When dogs and cats are frightened they are more likely to run away from their homes, jump out of open windows or dart into traffic.

Stressed pets can also behave out of character — even scratching or biting people, says Chortyk.

Soft and fluffy.

“Frightened farm animals have even been known to run into barbed-wire fences or other obstructions. With a little planning, guardians can take steps to keep their all their animals safe on Halloween,” says Chortyk.

Help keep your animals safe on Halloween with these tips:

Contact your local Black Press representative to see how you can be included, or email: publisher@nelsonstar.com

Keep pets inside: Pets who are inside have fewer opportunities to confront trick-or-treaters. Some pets do well left in a separate room with the radio or television on to mask the sound of fireworks and trick-or-treaters. Be sure to leave plenty of toys in the room

Candy is for people: Candy can lead to health problems such as diabetes or obesity, and chocolate is especially dangerous because it contains theobromine, which is toxic to dogs and cats. Keep treats well away from your pets.

Leave home without them: If you think it would be fun to bring your pet trick-or-treating, your pet may not share your view. The strange sights and sounds of Halloween can cause a normally friendly dog to bite if it feels scared or threatened.

Don’t costume your pet: Dressing your dog in a costume inhibits his ability to communicate, making him prone to display aggression himself or be subjected to aggressive behaviour from other dogs.
