BY GREG NESTEROFF Nelson Star

The former chief financial officer of the Central Kootenay and Kootenay Boundary regional districts is serving a 19½-month jail sentence after admitting to possession and distribution of child pornography.

Grant Roeland, 59, was arrested at his home in Warfield on Sept. 20, 2013 after Trail RCMP received a tip from the BC child exploitation unit.

Police seized two laptops and two hard drives that contained 508 images and 428 videos that met the definition of child pornography.

Roeland was charged with six offences and released on bail. However, on Jan. 8, 2015, he was arrested again on a breach of recognizance for possessing computer equipment.

He didn’t seek release and has remained in custody since.

Although he initially elected trial by judge, Roeland pled guilty on April 2 to one count of possession of child porn and another of possession for the purpose of transmission.

He also acknowledged violating his bail conditions.

At the time of the offences, the first count carried a minimum sentence of six

months in jail and a maximum of five years while the second count had a minimum of one year and maximum of 10 years. Crown counsel sought a prison sentence of two years less a day, while the defence asked for 15 to 18 months.

In passing sentence in Rossland Provincial Court on June 11, Judge Richard Hewson said Roeland was born and raised on a dairy farm in Manitoba and has two daughters with his now-ex-wife of 32 years. Roeland studied engineering at university and after working in that field, became a certified general accountant in 1996 and was employed by local governments in Alberta and BC.

He was chief financial officer of the Regional District of Central Kootenay in Nelson from March 2007 until March 2013 when he accepted the same position with the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary in Trail.

RDCK chief administrator Stuart Horn said they learned of Roeland’s arrest shortly after it happened and searched his work computers but found nothing inappropriate. The RDKB didn’t respond to a request for comment.

Hewson said at the time of Roeland’s arrest, he had been in an online chat room with an undercover police officer. He used a peer-to-peer network where people share pornographic images

by exchanging passwords that allow them to access each other’s folders. Roeland provided his password to 150 users.

During the sentence hearing, the courtroom was temporarily closed to the public so the judge could view what the Crown and defence agreed was a “representative sample” of the images and videos found on Roeland’s computers.

They included boys and girls who appeared younger than five and none who appeared older than 12.

“The children in the videos and images are anonymous,” Hewson said. “I don’t know their names, but I’m sure they each have one. They exist somewhere in the world.

They either know or will know when they’re older that images of their abuse are being shared by people who enjoy their suffering.

Child pornography is not a victimless crime.”

A psychologist’s report found Roeland is a low to moderate to risk to reoffend in possessing child pornography but a low risk for direct sexual offences against children or others. Court heard that while Roeland violated his bail conditions by having a computer, he didn’t use it access child porn.

The judge said he considered the fact

Roeland had no prior criminal record, pled guilty, apologized in court, and wasn’t involved in producing child porn as mitigating circumstances.

But he weighed that against the age of the children involved, the size of Roeland’s collection, which was “readily and easily distributed,” and the “scenes of depravity” it contained.

“Given that he decided to forego counselling, and the lack of any indication that he understands why this crime is treated so seriously, his guilty plea and apology cannot be given great weight as an indication of remorse or evidence of insight,” Hewson said.

Hewson sentenced Roeland to 18 months in jail on each count to be served concurrently and 1½ months for the breach of conditions to be served consecutively.

He gave Roeland time-and-a-half credit for his five months in pre-sentence custody, leaving the total amount of new time to serve as one year.

Roeland was also placed on three years probation and isn’t allowed to be alone with anyone under 16 without a probation officer’s permission.

Through much of the proceedings, a court-ordered ban prevented publication of Roeland’s name.

Trail RCMP warn of phone scam

BY TIMES STAFF The Trail and Greater District RCMP is warning citizens about fraudulent calls.

On Wednesday, the local detachment responded to a complaint involving a Trail resident who received an early morning phone call from a man claiming to represent the “Better Business Chief Executive Office Anti Fraud Division of Canada”.

• Security Installation and Service • ULC Security Monitoring • Medical Alert Installation & Monitoring

The male caller requested banking and credit card information from the resident, which wasn’t provided. The Trail resident hung up on the male caller and then contacted police.

Clark White leads the Adult Senior Band during a rehearsal. The program introduces instruments to seniors eager to learn and stay active through music.

Nona’s Homemade

Program offers mind and physical exercise FROM PAGE 1 Everyone has a particular instrument in mind, says Moon. But his role is to introduce senior students to the gamut, from clarinet to french horn or trombone, and have them give it a try. If the instrument is too cumbersome to hold or blow into, then it’s on to the next.

“Some people don’t have the physical dexterity or their lips don’t fit certain mouthpieces,” added Moon.

Besides age-related physical changes, the method of teaching senior versus youth also requires certain adaptation.

“A young person’s mind is still tied to learning from school, and on a huge fast track,” said Moon. “As an adult, it takes a bit more time to understand some of the basic principles, and older weaker eyes may not see a note on the page like a younger person would. So it’s getting used to that.”

But more than anything, there’s one aspect about teaching seniors that has everyone smiling.

“Mind exercise and the physical is a really great part and I am enjoying that,” said Moon.

“But most certainly, the best part with the seniors bunch is they can laugh at each other.

As a kid, you hate to be laughed at – well, this is the reverse,” he chuckled.

“These are the different things that made it’s so much fun, and these people are a whole lot of fun.”

When Moon was tasked with assembling a senior band program, the first to-do was finding a music teacher – preferably one with a lot of experience and maybe even a few grey hairs.

That’s when Clark White agreed to step in, lending hand and ear. White’s been teaching music since 1961, is a retired J.L. Crowe Secondary music teacher, and a well known musician in several local bands.

He says the most meaningful lesson the seniors are learning is that every aspect of being human is involved in the production of music.

“More than anything they are finding out music requires participation of the entire being, the breathing, ears, eyes, lips, emotions, the brain and mathematics, White added. “And I’ve had them say they didn’t realize they would have to push so hard to become a good (for example) clarinet player.”

That’s where Moon jumps back into the picture, by encouraging the seniors to keep going.

“Clark has a mantra, he will not allow the c-word, which is can’t,” Moon said. “And my mantra is, ‘wait until the end of the year,’ and look at how far you’ve come.”

Those interested in becoming part of the Adult Seniors Band is encouraged to contact Moon at 231.7177 or the Trail Alliance church at 368.9516.

OBITUARIES NELSON

Beloved canine found FUNERAL after epic search

&

OBITUARIES NOTICES In Loving Memory Of

Estelle Eleanor Gerrand Estelle Eleanor Gerrand passed away on October 17, 2015 at the Brookhaven Care Home in Kelowna B.C. at the age of 97 years.

Estelle was born in Brandon Manitoba on January 27, 1918. Her parents were Annie and Andrew Huckla. The family moved to Melville, Saskatchewan when Estelle was very young.

When she was 16 years old her father died and as her mother was not well, Estelle became the breadwinner in the home to support her mother and brother, Phillip who was four years younger.

She worked as a domestic until she earned enough money to finance her training as a secretary. Once she was qualified she worked as secretary in the Melville Co-op Creamery as the manager’s assistant.

In 1940, Estelle married Walter Gerrand, the love of her life and they moved to Yellowknife, NWT where Walter worked as a miner and trained to be an assayer for the Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company. It was an adventurous time for both of them as the stories of these early days are spellbinding. A year later their daughter Dianna was born and shortly after that they were transferred to the CM&S operations in Trail, BC. Two years later, their son Bruce was born and shortly after that Walter spent two years away training as a soldier in the Second World War. These were very difficult times for Estelle but with ingenuity and resourcefulness, challenges were overcome.

Walter and Estelle lived in Trail for 60 years enjoying raising their children and taking part in many community activities. Estelle was a busy mother with caring for her children and keeping an immaculate house and yard. She loved to sew, do needlework, play bridge, square dance and be an integral part of the neighborhood. She was involved as a Brownie leader, volunteered with the United Church ladies group, and rolled bandage for the Cancer clinic at the Trail Hospital. Estelle and Walter were long time members of the Knox United Church in Trail.

In later years, Estelle and Walter travelled to Europe and spent several winters in Hawaii. They both thoroughly enjoyed many bus trips from Trail to Reno as well as exploring Canada.

Estelle was predeceased by her parents Andrew and Annie as well as her brother Phillip. Walter died in 2002 and Estelle moved to Kelowna to be closer to her daughter. In Kelowna she lived in Sandalwood Retirement Resort for 11 years and Lakeshore Place for the last two years.

Left to mourn are daughter Dianna Behrner (Fred) of Kelowna, son Bruce Gerrand (Clara) of Castlegar, grandchildren Jeffrey (Melanie) Behrner and Alison (Shawn) Slingerland, Michael Gerrand (Pamela) and Lisa (Gerrand) Martin, great grandchildren Andrew Gerrand, Reid Gerrand, Darrah Martin, Jackson Martin and Kylan Behrner.

The family would like to thank Dr. Shari Claremont for the kind and compassionate care she provided for our mother. Also, thank you to Brookhaven Care Centre where the staff provided thoughtful and personal service.

A family graveside service will be held at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, a donation in Estelle Gerrand’s memory may be made to the Alzheimer Society of Canada or the the Canadian National Institute for the Blind.

Your family will love you and miss you forever

CASTLE, S. ALLAN

On Friday, October 9, 2015 Allan passed away in his home, in his 72nd year in Keremeos BC. Beloved husband of Maureen (Schneider) Castle for 51 years. Dear father of Stewart and Cookie Castle of Quesnel and Christoper Castle and Tim Downey of Victoria and Ottawa. Allan will be greatly missed by his brother and sister-in-law, Jerry and Dianne Castle of Quesnel, by his half-brother Stephen Castle and wife Laurie Tuckey-Castle of Kimberly, by Vernon and Doreen Schneider of Trail, Doug Schneider and Linda Schneider of Maple Ridge and by Allan’s nieces and nephews, Marcus Castle and Carrie-Anne Fulton of Quesnel, Dawn and Sandra Schneider of Trail, and Michael and Jody Schneider of Maple Ridge.

He is also survived by his step-Mother Dru Castle.

Allan will be fondly remembered by his friends and neighbours on Forner Crescent.

Predeceased by his parents, Stewart Castle (2009) and Mary Smith (1977); and his nephew Doug Schneider (2007).

Allan and Maureen travelled extensively in British Columbia, enjoying camping and fishing, during Allan’s 30 years at Cariboo Pulp and Paper in Quesnel. They retired to Keremeos in 2001.

Allan finally succumbed to a long battle with pancreatic cancer that began in 2010 and was greatly aided by his wife, his lovely and generous neighbours, the kind Dr. Boshof, the Keremeos clinic staff, home care nurses and home support workers. His survivors are profoundly grateful for the extraordinary compassion and care afforded Allan in his community.

There will be a celebration of life for Allan, at a time to be determined in 2016; where friends and family from all parts, including the Cariboo and Keremeos will be welcomed.

As expression of sympathy, in lieu of flowers, donations to the South Okanagan Similkameen Medical Foundation would be greatly appreciated.

BY WILL JOHNSON Nelson Star

Blewett resident Logan Lynn spent 18 days searching the wilderness for his beloved 14-year-old lab boxer mix Boris, and last Tuesday they were finally reunited after a Homeward Boundstyle epic search. The odyssey began when the spooked pet darted into the woods during a 4x4 trip in Princeton.

“Logan and his friends searched and searched for Boris and after staying two extra days Logan eventually had to end his search and go home back to his job in Nelson,” Lynn’s sister Nona told the Star in an email.

Logan works for the City of Nelson.

“He and our entire family was devastated.”

The Lynns shared the news with the Princeton bylaw officer, as well as the local SPCA, and began postering. They sent posters to organizations in Princeton, Coalmont and Tulameen.

PROVINCIAL Ski hills anxiously watch weather as El Nino nears THE CANADIAN PRESS VANCOUVER - Ski resort operators in British Columbia hope mounds of snow this winter will blanket the bad memories of last year’s dismal season, but with a strong El Nino system due to hit the province, those hopes may melt away.

Most forecasters agree El Nino will bring warmer coastal temperatures, but opinions vary about what that means for snowfall on coastal and Interior mountains.

The director of the Mount Washington Resort on Vancouver Island said hopes are pinned on three decades of weather data collected on the hill.

“Years there were El Ninos were the years that we seem to get the most amount of snow,” Don Sharpe said.

“Sometimes an El Nino year would bring a little bit less, but for the most part, it seems to be bringing the snowfall that we want.”

But Environment Canada meteorologist Matt MacDonald said balmy temperatures are associated with the incoming weather system.

“With these higher-than-normal temperatures expected throughout the winter and into next spring, unfortunately a higher proportion of the total snowfall will fall as rain,” he said. “ The average freezing level will be a little bit higher, by the tune of about two- to 400 metres, meaning that, for the North Shore mountains, not the greatest news.”

“Places like Whistler that benefit from more vertical won’t fare too badly, but definitely not as much snow in the village,” MacDonald said.

Whistler Mountain, at 2,181 metres, and Mount Washington, at 1,917 metres, could stay above the freezing level, but Vancouver’s North Shore hills are all below 1,500 metres.

Accuweather forecaster Brett Anderson said January and February should be drier, with less snow than usual in the Rockies and into Alberta, but he also said disruptions from El Nino could bring heavy snowfalls around Christmas.

“We do think the bulk of our precipitation will come early in the winter and therefore we think snowfall to start the season will be close to normal, especially in the coastal range,” Anderson said.

That fits with predictions from Mount Washington, where Sharpe is looking forward to a strong season.

“The temperatures are right, and the feeling in the air is the way it should be.”

Meeting Monday in Muriel Griffiths Room of CBT FROM PAGE 1 conversation. In the end, the public will have its say.

The graduate of the fish, wildlife and forestry program at Selkirk College worked most of his career at Teck on the environmental side.

He has lived in the area for over 60 years, in which time he frequented the Pend d’Oreille, and he said so much has changed since then.

The old growth winter grounds are critical for animals but are also a major attractant for motorists.

“Everybody seems to want to be out there,” he said. “And it’s a significant south-facing slope that gets very little snow in the winter and so the animals are under pressure more and more when the people are riding out there year round.”

Driving the increase is the logging, he added.

An extensive trail network and rough roads already cross through this entire area, and BC Timber Sales intends to start logging in the Limpid and Wallach drainages in the fall of 2015.

“It’s a combination of creating a whole new system of roads and then hunters showing up on their quads, so there is one less spot for animals to hide,” said Frew. “That’s what we’re losing, we’re losing wilderness, and it’s huge.”

Privacy boss alerts RCMP, claims government worker gave false testimony THE CANADIAN PRESS VICTORIA - B.C.’s privacy commissioner has alerted RCMP after releasing a scathing report identifying major failures in the access to information practices of Premier Christy Clark’s office and two ministries.

Elizabeth Denham found it’s likely that Transport Ministry assistant George Gretes deleted emails, didn’t completely respond to freedom of information requests and then lied about it under oath.

Denham said she has referred the matter to Mounties for investigation.

“I cannot overstate the gravity with which I view the false testimony given during this investigation by George Gretes,” she wrote.

“I am deeply saddened that the evidence in this case has required me to take this course of action.”

The commissioner said her investigation uncovered negligent

GENERAL REBATES ON NOW! Valid until Dec 15th, 2015

The conversation starts with a couple representatives from interested stakeholder groups looking over the first draft and providing input Monday at the Muriel Griffiths room at 7 p.m. TWA will be hosting another meeting for the general public to comment on the maps and the proposed access restrictions afterward.

The second draft will later be sent to Victoria headquarters, which then posts all proposed regulation changes for the next Hunting and Trapping Synopsis onto its engagement website. That’s when the public can pipe in. This consultation period is likely to occur in November or December on the Angling, Hunting and Trapping Engagement website at http://apps. nrs.gov.bc.ca/pub/ahte/.

Frew points to the East Kootenay, which is well ahead on its access management area program.

“We’re trying to create an area where when people walk in it’s not going to make the same kind of impact as a quad going in,” added Frew. “When I first started hunting there was virtually no four-wheel drives out here but then they came, and that’s when fish and wildlife started putting road closures all over.

“This is a new improved meth-

searches for records, failure to keep adequate email records, a failure to document searches and the wilful destruction of records in response to FOI requests.

“Taken together, these practices threaten the integrity of access to information in British Columbia,” she said in a statement.

The issue came to light when Tim Duncan, a former executive assistant in the Transport Minister’s office, submitted a complaint alleging Gretes “triple deleted” computer records that would have been needed for an FOI request.

Government emails need to be deleted three times before they are completely expunged from an account. Denham found Duncan to be a credible witness and that his account of events was truthful.

In contrast, she said Gretes was not reliable and admitted to giving false testimony under oath.

all has arrived and is as beautiful as ever in our part of the West Kootenays.

Lower Columbia/Old Glory (Area B) activity is ongoing and folks are clearing the last of their gardens and yards in preparation for winter. Please be sure to pick and dispose of fallen or unwanted fruits and vegetables to ensure less conflict between wildlife and humans on your properties and elsewhere. While clearing your property of yard waste, please dispose of them responsibly , not by littering our beautiful backcountry.

In speaking about our local gardens, I was invited to “An incrEDIBLE Thanksgiving” evening hosted by Gina Ironmonger. This evening was to showcase locally sourced foods provided by local farms and wineries. It was a great opportunity to be educated on the wide range of locally sourced and grown proteins, grains, vegetable and accompaniments.

Please take the time to explore our local farms and providers, to support their incredible array of offerings.

With winter soon upon us, please ensure that any vehicles or RV’s parked on road allowance are done so in a safe manner to allow our snow removal contractors to do their jobs properly without the risk of damage to your personal property.

Recreation activity will soon switch from hiking, biking and disc golf on Area B Parks and Trails lands, to snowshoeing and cross country skiing, at Area B’s BlackJack, the Seven Summits, Nancy Greene Lake and Paulson Trails, and all points in between. Please be careful and be sure to take plenty of pictures and only leave your footprint.

Budget time is here and with continuing to try to provide the best services possible while being fiscally responsible, it should be a busy time until April.

On that note, I will be speaking with the City

Community Comment of Trail Representatives regarding the upcoming end to the current Recreation Agreement with the City. This current Agreement comes to a close on December 31/15. I want to thank all Area B residents who attended the meetings and responded to the online poll, regarding the future of shared Recreation Services, and to assure you that your comments and opinions will forge the path for these discussions next week.

The Halls and Parks in Area B are bustling with activity. The Casino Hall upgrade project is com-

pleted and refects and protects its Heritage values.

Rivervale Park, Oasis Hall and Genelle Hall are busy with community and surrounding area bookings, and activities.

Please be sure to support the local halls and all that they provide to our Rural Communities and Lower Columbia neighbouring population.

The Dewdney Trail Society and its hard working volunteers have been busy with brushing and clearing this historical trail in Area B and the refurbished sign has been erected at the head of the trail in Paterson area. This the 150th Anniversary of the Dewdney Trail will hopefully be the beginning of a new generation of users, who will support, cherish, and protect this amazing Historical Site for generations to come.

As a continuing original RDKB appointed member of the Columbia River Treaty Local Government Committee, I will carry on working hard representing the people of the Basin in

our area and across the Columbia Basin. Locally your voices were heard and noted and form the content of the Local Government Committee’s Recommendations, for the Lower Columbia Region, regarding any modernization and/or changes to the Treaty, and were added to those voices across the Basin from our three rounds of Community meetings over a three year period.

LETTERS & OPINION LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

CHEAPEST . COLDEST in the KOOTENAYS Old Milwaukee or Budweiser

Cannings thanks SOWK voters I would like to thank the voters of South Okanagan-West Kootenay for the trust you have placed in me by electing me as your Member of Parliament.

I am humbled by your support and will work hard for all the people of South OkanaganWest Kootenay. My office door will always be open, and I pledge to not only take your concerns to Ottawa, but to actively seek out your ideas on how we can make this region an even better place to live. I would also like to thank the hundreds of volunteers who worked for my

campaign, and the volunteers who worked for the other candidates. Democracy only works when people are engaged, and this election campaign certainly saw Canadians get involved in record numbers. We should be proud that our riding had one of the higher voter turnouts of 73.4 per cent.

I also congratulate the other candidates—Connie Denesiuk, Brian Gray, Marshall Neufeld and Samantha Troy—for putting their names forward and campaigning in a fair and collegial manner. After a year and

a half of meeting each other at events across the riding we came to know and respect each other—we all love and care for this region and our country despite what political differences we may have.

It will take a few weeks to set up my local offices; in the meantime please feel free to contact me through an interim email address: richard.cannings@ndp.ca.

Richard Cannings Member of Parliament-elect South Okanagan-West Kootenay

Denesiuk offers thanks and congratulations Thank you to all who voted on October 19th. Canadians came out in force to elect Justin Trudeau as our new Prime Minister. We can look forward to a kinder, more open and inclusive style of governance.

I would like to congratulate Richard Cannings on his election win – the responsibility of representing residents of the South Okanagan-West Kootenay is significant, and I

know Richard will work very hard for his constituents.

Thank you to my fellow candidates for running respectful local campaigns that did not include personal attacks.

I would also like to thank everyone who gave their time, enthusiasm and support to strengthen our local Liberal campaign! We started from scratch (6 per cent of the vote in 2011) and despite a shoe-

string budget, we more than quadrupled the Liberal numbers to a respectable 28 per cent!

My husband Bob and I are grateful for the incredible new friendships we have developed over the past 18 months. It has been hard work, but enjoyable work – and I have never been more proud to be a Canadian!

imperious personal style. (And Monday night he seemed to concede as much with plans, reportedly, to step down as leader of the party.)

The election capped what, almost improbably, was an exciting campaign. Rather than tuning out, Canadians became increasingly engaged over twoand-a-half months of electioneering, almost in defiance of the Conservative plan to outspend and outlast the Liberals and Tom Mulcair’s NDP. In late September the big shift came, on an issue few saw coming: the Harper government announced it would fight to ban the wearing of the niqab at citizenship ceremonies. Mr. Harper insisted it was what Canadians wanted and used this particularly in Quebec where anti-veil sentiments run high.

That set in motion the demise of the NDP in the province where much of their vote was concentrated.

The Conservatives gained little from the divisive tack that pitted “old stock” Canada against the assimilated. It helped the Liberals and it revived the separatist Bloc Québécois.

Across Canada, the antiConservative vote finally gelled and turned Liberal red.

Now, time for the Liberals to get to work. There’s a lot to be done.

Conservative tax policies will go -- income splitting for families with children will be axed; the grab bag of child tax credits will meld into one, bigger monthly cheque tied to income; the plan to make Canadians wait longer for old age security benefits will be scrapped.

But Mr. Trudeau should ponder what Canadians were voting against. Canada needs to regain some of the fundamentals of a participatory democracy. That includes rejecting bully governance that saw a majority party use the cudgel of omnibus bills to pass mounds of important legislation with a pittance of debate. Decentralize the power amassed in the Prime Minister’s Office. Take the muzzle off government MPs and cabinet ministers.

Creeping authoritarianism doesn’t sit right with a pluralistic, centrist society. And Canadians were more than ready to put a stop to it.

A stunning denunciation of Harper An editorial from the Winnipeg Free Press He was ready -- and so was Canada. Justin Trudeau made history Monday night, the first time the son of a prime minister has become prime minister, in an election that was bound to be momentous, however Canadians voted.

There was to be no fourth mandate for the Conservatives (which would have been a first since the days of John A. Macdonald) and, to torture the phrase one more time, Canada was “just not ready” for an NDP government.

Instead, Canadians found the young, charismatic and personable son of Pierre Elliott worthy of leadership. That was thanks largely to an extraordinarily long campaign that gave voters a lot of time to get to know the man who became Liberal leader two years ago. Mr. Trudeau’s star rose steadily through much of the 78-day campaign, eventually trumping the Tories even on their hallmark issue of economic management: he said a Liberal government would run repeat deficits.

But don’t kid yourself. This was not an electorate caught up in Trudeaumania, P.E.T. redux.

It was a vote to throw the Tories out. Despite the Conservatives’ able hand on fiscal matters, Canadians turfed a party that grew increasingly arrogant.

It was a referendum against Mr. Harper himself and his

Garden of Hope planted in Castlegar

BY BETSY KLINE Castlegar News

C a s t l e g a r Communities in Bloom (CIB) is joining with the Canadian Cancer Society to create a Garden of Hope for Castlegar.

The new garden will feature 1000 daffodils and be planted at the Castlegar Chamber of Commerce. The daffodil is a symbol of hope for many people with cancer and represents a promise to continue the search for a cure.

“A Garden of Hope is the perfect way to honour, pay tribute or host in memory of someone dear to them who is on a cancer journey or has succumbed to this horrible disease. It is a way to help fight back against cancer,” said Allison McCarthy, Revenue Development Coordinator for the Canadian Cancer Society.

Bulbs will be sold in the form of a sponsorship for the new garden with all the

Smoke Eaters power to victory over Centennials a power-play goal, his fourth of the season, into a wide open net thanks to a pretty set up from Nick Halloran and Kurt Black.

Halloran, then finished it off with just over two minutes to play, when his centering pass went off a Cents d-man’s stick and into the net.

For Marshall, it was his second win in three games played this season, behind starter Bailey MacBurnie, and like any competitor, he would like to see more action but is happy to contribute when called upon.

“It’s hard, you play one in every five or six games, you kind of get out of the rhythm a bit, but it’s nice to come in and get a win,” said Marshall. “I have to push the starter and make sure he’s doing his job, and trying to play as much ice-time as I can get, and just help the team out.”

It was, all-in-all, a good day for special teams. Trail boasts the top penalty kill in the league, 87.5 per cent, but owns the worst power play, going 6-for-55, a meagre 9.17 per cent success rate, prior to Wednesday’s match.

“It (the power-play) can win a hockey game,” said Deschenes.

“We’ve had a great PK (penalty kill) so it’s kind of neutralized itself, we’ve had to rely on 5-on5, but we don’t have any leading scorers on our roster right now so for us to get it on the 5-on4 advantage, where scoring is three-times greater – it needs to happen.”

Times Sports Editor

A rock-solid game from Linden Marshall in net and strong special teams proved pivotal for the Trail Smoke Eaters on Wednesday at the Cominco Arena, as the Smokies rolled to a 5-1 win over their BCHL Interior division rival Merritt Centennials.

Trail scored twice on the extra-man advantage including the winning goal from Connor Brown-Maloski at 6:37 of the second period to give Trail it’s fifth win of the season. After Cent’s defenceman Nick Fiorentino was sent off for tripping, Trail forward Cooper Leitch worked the puck to pointman Bennett Morrison who sent a cross-ice pass to CBM. The Kamloops native one-timed a slap shot through traffic and by Merritt goalie Cole Kehler to put Trail up 2-1.

“I think first off goaltending was definitely key,” said Trail Smoke Eater coach and GM Nick Deschenes. “I thought we carried the play for the first two periods, and special teams kicked in and helped out. They gave a strong push in the third period, hats off to them, but we were able to manage that and keep them at bay and take advantage of a couple breakdowns. As we have experienced many times, when you’re trying to go for a goal, it’s hard to maintain that defensive posture.”

John Laurito started the scoring when he took a pass at center ice from Mitch Stapley and

However, 92 seconds later, Fiorentino took a pass at the left hash mark and wired it top shelf on Marshall for a power-play goal to tie it as both teams fired 13 shots on the other in the period.

Trail came out committed in the second. After Brown-Maloski’s marker put the Smokies up, Max

Newton slid a perfect pass to Leitch in the slot, and he blasted it off the inside cross bar and out to give the Smokies a 3-1 lead.

Trail outshot the Cents 18-9 in the period, but Merritt pushed back in the third, firing 15 shots on goal to Trail’s five only to be stopped repeatedly by Marshall.

The 17-year-old Victoria native, made a couple of huge glove saves in close, and topped it off with a highlight-reel save in the dyng minutes, when he slid

across to stone former Kamloops Blazer forward Mitch Lipon on the doorstep.

“I was nervous, but the guys kept pushing and we got another goal to make it 5-1 so that helped us,” said Marshall. “It was a big team effort, everybody played really well and kept it together.

Everyone was battling hard the whole night, we didn’t stop we just kept going.”

KIJHL

B.V. Nitehawks take on Posse and Bears

BY JIM BAILEY

Times Sports Editor

In Kootenay International Junior Hockey League (KIJHL) play, the Beaver Valley Nitehawks are hands down favourites to sweep a pair of games this weekend against the Princeton Posse and Grand Forks Border Bruins.

Both the Bruins and Posse have struggled this season with the 4-9-0-0 Posse lingering in fourth place in the Okanagan division while the Border Bruins are in the same position in the Neil Murdoch division with a 4-90-2 record.

The Posse are coming off an 8-0 loss to Summerland Steam on Sunday, and haven’t won a game

since Sept. 26, a 6-2 win over Nelson, losing their last seven in a row. Grand Forks, meanwhile, shut out the Spokane Braves on Sunday, 3-0, after suffering a 6-4 loss to B.V. At home Saturday.

While their present status is unenviable, the future looks bright for both teams. Their respective rosters are riddled with young talent, the Bruins carrying 16 rookies while the Posse are riding with 14 first year players including both goalies.

The Border Bruins leading scorer is 17-year-old Calgary native Shane Pluto who scored twice in the 6-4 loss to the Hawks on Saturday, while Princeton’s 16-year-old defenceman Sunhil

Sahota from Merritt is their third top scorer with two goals and seven points. Sahota anchors a competent defence, backstopped by six-foot-four goaltender Zakery Babin. The Surrey product has played all but one game for the Posse, and has a 3.80 goals against average with a respectable .904 save percentage.

Meanwhile, Beaver Valley, 11-2-0-0, remains a point ahead of the 10-3-1-0 Castlegar Rebels in the Neil Murdoch division standings with a game in hand, and have won four in a row since back-to-back losses to Summerland and Spokane.

Hawks forward Braden Fuller leads the team with six goals

and 12 assists for eighth spot in the KIJHL scoring race. Not far behind is fellow 20-year-old Jace Weegar whose hot hand has earned five points in the past two games giving him seven goals and 16 points in 11 games.

The Nitehawks are still searching for another netminder, although Drake Poirier, since the loss of Brandon Wells to the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League, has won three in a row, allowing just five goals on 71 shots, for a .930 save percentage, and 1.67 goals against average.

The puck drop for the Posse and Border Bruins games on Friday and Saturday goes at 7:30 p.m.

After an ambivalent start, the Saints are 2-2 and in a fourway tie for first place in the BC Intercollegiate Hockey League with the Eagles, Trinity Western and UVic. Former Trail Smoke Eater and Beaver Valley Nitehawk Dallas Calvin leads the team in scoring with five goals and eight points, and will face league leading scorer, the Eagles’ Beau Walker who has four goals and 10 points on the season.

tell the whole story), that the middle of the zone is where goals come from. The point man just has to miss the first checker with his shot to avoid the breakaway scenario and the puck does not have to directly be on target to create an opportunity to score. I don’t know what the new strategy is, but listening around the arena to calls of, “Shoot the puck,” from every corner, and seeing the puck instead passed into bad angles where only a really, really good one-timer shooter (Trail, the BCHL in fact, has very, very, few of those) has a prayer of beating a modern goalie, gets old, and frustrating, quickly.

That aside, the Smokies skate well and work hard (most of the players, most of the time, anyway) and still have the opportunity, beginning tonight, to have an impact on the interior playoff race.

Marshall solid in net for Trail year and opportunity, and I think he’s shown he’s deserving of that first string goaltender role,” said Deschenes.

“But for Linden it says a lot, he’s a young man and extremely dedicated, and to come in as sparsely as he’s playing right now and really hold the fort, shows the kind of potential he has as a goaltender . . . Each game he’s gotten better and more consistent, and really doing well, I feel good for him.”

FROM PAGE 11 Marshall stopped 36 shots on the night, while Kehler blocked 31 in the Merritt goal.

Leitch, Halloran, Newton, and BrownMaloski all counted a goal and an assist, while Leitch took first star honours, CBM second star, and Kehler somehow garnered third star consideration over Marshall who was named the Fortis Energy of the game.

Thoughts while running in a cemetery

I

t was a crisp, sunny morning for a run along Toronto’s Kay Gardner belt line. Having spent the previous day traveling, I was anxious to get moving. I turned on my tunes, hit the timer on my watch, and quickly fell into a comfortable rhythm.

I was relishing the beauty of the changing season. The rays of the autumn sun, low in the sky, filtered through the trees, and glinted off the rustling leaves as they slowly drifted towards the ground. Black squirrels foraged at the edges of the path. A cardinal caught my eye.

Before long, the high wall that marks the boundary between that section of the belt line and Mount Pleasant Cemetery came into view. In order to continue my run along the tree-lined LOUISE trail, I needed to run through the cemetery.

Everyday Theology This was not the first time that I had run through the cemetery. As on previous occasions, it felt a bit odd to be jogging alongside headstones. There was something vaguely unsettling and disrespectful about it, as if life were thumbing its nose at death. Yet, at the same time, it felt quite natural.

On this particular day, as leaves decayed underfoot, I was acutely conscious of the proximity between life and death. In the buildings and along the by-ways outside the cemetery wall and along the trail itself, we humans, like ants intent on a task, were consumed with the business of living. Unless we were in the act of burying our dead, the cemetery was just a pleasant park; its graves had nothing to do with us.

I began to speculate about the lives of those who were buried beneath the ground. Perhaps these graves that stretched out in every direction beneath my pounding feet had something to tell me.

Initially, I was intrigued with the individuals whose tombs bespoke wealth or importance. But then, the light went on. Death levels the playing field. Distinctions of wealth, race and status crumble. Rich or poor, famous or infamous, we all come to the same end. Death reduces; we are “dust to dust, ashes to ashes”.

Maybe because it was a beautiful day and I was feeling healthy and vigorous, the commentary in my head was curiously uplifting despite its morbid subject. I actually felt more alive.

I think that periodically reflecting upon our mortality has some benefits. It creates a sense of urgency about living well, which for me means to live more simply and with more mindfulness, compassion, gratitude and love. It can help us define the things that make life meaningful and prioritize the tasks that out of necessity occupy our time.

When I set out for my run, I had no intention of thinking about death. My purpose was much more mundane.

Yet, as I ran through the cemetery, its graves reminded me that “there is a season for everything, a time for every purpose under heaven”, and that the fullness of life includes all of human experience.

Trail & District Churches I Will Fill This House With Splendor “Is it time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses, while this house lies in ruins?” (Hag. 1:4).

It is now the year 520 BC. The Jews returned from the Babylonian captivity eighteen years previously, in 538 BC, and rebuilt the altar of holocausts and laid the first stone of the second temple, but they did not continue to build for another eighteen years, until the prophet Haggai arose in 520 BC and began to encourage Zerubbabel, the governor, and Joshua, the high priest, to begin building the temple.

The argument that the prophet Haggai uses to get Zerubbabel, Joshua, and the people to begin building is that their present economic plight and poverty is not a reason for not building the temple, but rather is the result of not building it. In other words, God is punishing them for building their own cedar-paneled houses, while leaving his house lie in ruins. That is why they are now having economic difficulties. Their economic difficulties are the result of not building the temple. Since they are leaving aside God’s work, and instead going about their own work, God is not blessing them, and so they are not prospering. If they want their economic condition to improve, they should get together and start working on the house of the Lord, for then God will bless them.

Doing the Lord’s work will solve their economic problems, because God will bless them if they work for his glory.

But now, says the prophet, “you have sown much, and harvested little; you eat, but you never have enough; you drink, but you never have your fill; you clothe yourselves, but no one is warm; and he who earns wages earns wages to put them into a bag with holes” (Hag. 1:6). Why has all this happened to you? - the Lord asks them.

It is “because of my house that lies in ruins, while you busy yourselves each with his own house. Therefore the heavens above you have withheld their dew, and the earth has withheld its produce” (Hag. 1:9-10).

God himself is withholding his blessing and punishing his people for not giving him glory by rebuilding the temple. Therefore, says the Lord, “I have called for a drought upon the land and the hills, upon the grain, the new wine, the oil, upon what the ground brings forth, upon men and cattle, and upon all their labors” (Hag. 1:11).

So Zerubbabel, Joshua, and the people were convinced by Haggai’s

God treats us in the same way. Those who live and work to build for themselves wealthy houses and pleasure-filled, luxurious lives, while ignoring the work of the Lord will not prosper in what really counts. Their hearts will be empty, and their lives will be meaningless, even in their own eyes, for God will not bless them.

But how about the people of God, the New Israel, the Church today? Is the Church prospering today? In many countries new vocations to the priesthood and religious life have all but disappeared. Our seminaries, convents, and monasteries are closing up.

Why has this happened? In Haggai’s day, the people minded their own personal business and forgot God’s work and his glory. In our day we are also forgetting God’s work and his glory.

What is God’s primary work, since the coming of Christ? It is his work on the cross, which redeems the world. This is being forgotten by many today. It is being set aside, as we focus on more human concerns. How many times have you heard justification and salvation by the death of Christ on the cross, through our faith in him, clearly preached in church? This is the essence of our faith, of the Christian faith, but I dare say, many nowadays practically never hear it preached. How often is the reparation that Christ made for our sins by his passion and death on the cross for the justification of all who believe in him clearly preached today? And how often is this preached as the central doctrine of our salvation?

So what is the way that we should now take if we want true prosperity and renewal? We should engage in preaching the Lord’s work in his Son on the cross for the salvation of the world and devote ourselves to preaching this as our central concern as his Church.

Then, indeed, God will bless us. This, together with a few other reforms, which I will speak of in other sermons, is what will end the vocations drought that we are now experiencing. Then indeed “I will give prosperity, says the Lord of hosts” (Hag. 2:9). If you take up the work of God, instead of substituting for it your own work, “from this day on I will bless you” (Hag. 2:19). © Copyright 2007-2009 Rev.

prophecy and began building the temple. Then, while they were working on it, Haggai prophesied that God would now bless them, saying, “For thus says the Lord of hosts: Once again, in a little while, I will shake the heavens and the earth and the sea and the dry land; and I will shake the nations, so that the treasures of all nations shall come in, and I will fill this house with splendor, says the Lord of hosts” (Hag. 2:6-7).

2015 Conceptis Puzzles, Dist. by King Features Syndicate, Inc.

Dear Annie: Two nights ago, I witnessed my best friend being verbally abused by her boyfriend. The boyfriend was drunk and probably doing something illegal.

I listened to him yell at her on the phone all night while we were supposed to be spending time together for her birthday. It was 3 a.m., and he was demanding that I pick him up on my way to take her home. I told him no, because I didn’t want him being drunk and possibly violent in my car.

I let my friend know that she can call me if she needs anything, and dropped her off at their house.

Although I’m sure her boyfriend will eventually get himself arrested for violating his probation, I feel it is up to me to report him. But if I do, I will lose her friendship. Should I turn him in for the sake of my friend’s safety or mind my own business?
