Residents air views on Pend D’Oreille valley proposal

Times Staff

BY VALERIE ROSSI Times Staff

A stakeholders meeting became a public forum Monday night when concerned residents turned up to reject a proposal that limits motorized entry to the Pend D'Oreille valley.

The Murriel Griffiths room was nearly maxed out at 80 people when some of the general public managed to squeeze into the discussion that veered off course from the map proposal at hand to finding other resolutions to conserving wildlife populations, their habitats, and sensitive ecosystems.

“This was partly brought on by fish and wildlife management, as far as I'm concerned,” said Bob Wishneski, a hunter and member of West Kootenay ATV. “Five/six years ago we didn't have an open elk season, plus there was limited entry, we didn't have a general open season, we didn't have doe season, we didn't have spike or bull moose season.

“It's the regulation change that made a big problem,” he added. “Can't you put the regulations back the way they were and leave the roads open?”

The diverse membership of the Trail Wildlife Association is divided on the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resources proposal.

The draft suggests motorized vehicles shouldn't have entry to the watersheds of all creeks flowing into the Pend D'Oreille River on the north shore, from the Waneta Dam to the confluence of the Salmo River, and the watersheds of Pete Creek, Wallack Creek, Grouse Creek and McCormick Creek in the lower Salmo River.

What felt like a “secret meeting” to some told the story of the TWA's' group of up to 450 members, 30 of which are generally active and have been part of the discussion for some time, and the remainder who are only finding out about the proposal this week.

Tom McEwan, a Trail veteran who served as navigator, bombardier and air gunner with the Royal Canadian Air Force from 1944 to 1945, was pinned the first poppy by Trail Ambassador Timberlyn Miles on Tuesday. The first poppy pinning launches the annual fundraising campaign with veterans, cadets and volunteers distributing the scarlet pins beginning Friday in downtown Trail, Walmart, Canadian Tire, Waneta Mall and Main Street in Fruitvale. Over 19 million poppies were distributed across Canada in 2014 and locally, the campaign raised almost $23,000, with a majority of the proceeds staying in Greater Trail.

Lack of amenities, inadequate signage and scanty cover are fuelling conversation about changing location of the main bus exchange in downtown Trail.

The news is welcome for the bus service operator at Trail Transit, granted talks have just begun and possible relocation is somewhere down the road.

“It's very good,” says Sharman Thomas, Trail Transit's supervisor. “That is our main exchange for people to hop on the bus. We have added a lot of shelters and re-done stops throughout the Greater Trail area and they've improved, which is great,” he added. “But our next step we want to see, is an improvement to that exchange area, because we are not putting our best foot forward by any means.”

Thomas and Trevor Stach, (Trail Transit manager) are committed to finding a stop where all riders feel secure.

“We would like to see proper pullin signage, washrooms, lighting, and potentially, security cameras so anyone going there will feel safe, no matter the age,” he said.

Montrose Mayor Joe Danchuk brought verbal concern to regional partners in the East End Services last week following community and Trail Transit feedback.

Danchuk sits on the West Kootenay Regional Transit Committee, and clarified that while the matter is in the preliminary stage, he's heard about the site's challenges and suggested the group start considering other options.

“The transfer station has been brought to our attention,” he told the Trail Times.

“There is no real cover there for people who may be coming in to go to the hospital or anywhere else,” he said.

“Our transit people are asking if we couldn't start to look for a better spot, like in Castlegar or Nelson, where they have an area to pull in off the road, and they have washroom (and other) amenities.”

Sales intends to start logging in the Limpid and Wallach drainages in the fall of 2015.

“Why has there been so little information given to the public?” asked John Urquhart Jr. “The only reason we were informed of this proposal is that it was believed that we would support this closure.

None of our neighbours were notified.”

The Urquharts, landowners in the Pend D’Oreille, shared the stakeholder meeting on their Facebook page in attempt to open up the discussion to people who recreate on the land.

Proposed changes to Kootenay Boundary’s regional access management program are an attempt to conserve habitat that are in distress and being pushed out by motorists, according to the ministry. An increase in off-road vehicle use and illegal trail building have damaged conservation proper-

ties and promoted the spread of invasive plants throughout the valley. Also, decreasing numbers of mule and whitetail deer have prompted the government to propose this action.

Urquhart Jr. stood in front of the crowd to share his view on the “flawed review.”

“The largest cause of habitat degradation in the Pend D’Oreille valley was the building of the dams and associated power lines,” he said. “BC Hydro seized these properties and then convinced people it was for wildlife compensation.”

He highlighted the need for a conservation officer to enforce current laws.

He went onto to add that the large pressure the areas receiving is mostly due to the restriction of access to Fort Shepherd, closing access to the south of the Pend D’Oreille valley and the opening of the six-point elk

season.

“If the Trail Wildlife Association wants to be effective and actually represent the interest of its members it should be doing something other than playing for others behind closed doors,” he added.

This stung for someone like Rick Fillmore, who has devoted his life to conserving land and habitat “Some of these guys have been working 40-50 years, myself included,” said Fillmore. “And you don’t get any pats on the back. All you get is a knife in the back for trying to save wildlife.”

Comments were noted Monday night and were to be included for consideration before the draft is submitted.

TWA will be hosting another meeting for the general public to comment on the maps and the proposed access restrictions shortly.

Pedestrian Better location would improve service recovering

BY VALERIE ROSSI Times Staff

A woman who was hit by a car on Victoria Street Monday is recovering from the traumatic experience.

The 58-year-old Canada Post employee “is doing well” with just a “bump on the head but appears OK,” according to Sgt. Darren Oelke of the Trail and Greater Detachment.

The pedestrian was travelling southbound toward Cedar Avenue Monday at approximately 9:20 a.m. when a 48-year-old male driver was turning left from Cedar and struck her down.

The driver is now facing charges of failing to yield to a pedestrian and no insurance under the Motor Vehicle Act.

FROM PAGE 1 He acknowledged complaints from riders about the Trail stopover, especially during winter months and the lack of shelter, but reiterated discussion still has to be introduced at the committee level “What we want to do is look at it down the road,” Danchuk added. “And find out if it is possible..with partnering, that we find a better spot for the transfer station in Trail.”

A better location would improve the service overall, Thomas maintains, and would free up time for additional bus runs.

“Because we are driving deep into town, we lose five minutes every run,” he explained. “If

those five minutes were put toward actual routes, we could get an extra run, for example, to Rossland, Glenmerry or Fruitvale.”

Trail Transit runs the Columbia Zone (Greater Trail, Castlegar) of the West Kootenay Transit System, and operates the bus service on behalf of two partners, the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary and BC Transit.

“We just want it safe and clean and something that will represent what we believe transit wants to be,” Thomas said.

“We want to be an outstanding service for our customers, and what we are saying, is maybe there is a better location.”

BC Transit spokesperson

Mike Russell confirmed a service review is slated for next month, that will include rider response about the Cedar Avenue exchange as well as other local transit specifics.

“We are going to be out in the community and really looking for feedback,” he said, noting BC Transit has received details about Trail’s main station.

“Our employees will be on the ground talking to people who are out there riding buses, and talking to the community. We will be asking them to provide input through a survey to try to capture (information) about a bus stop like this, timing, traffic, and all those sorts of things.”

Is a better deal for Generation Squeeze possible under Trudeau?

A

ged 43 and father of young children, Prime Ministerdesignated Justin Trudeau represents a new generation of Canadian leaders: he is a member of Generation Squeeze.

Canadians in our 20s, 30s, 40s, and the children we parent, are squeezed on average by lower full-time incomes, higher housing costs, less time and a deteriorating environment compared to 1976 when the Baby Boomers came of age as young adults.

While Trudeau has personally escaped much of this financial squeeze, it is still exciting to imagine what potential his perspective brings to the job of Prime Minister in the pursuit of a better generational deal, one that works for all Canadians. As Trudeau repeated so often throughout the campaign, “In Canada, BETTER is always possible.”

In pursuit of BETTER, Trudeau should be commended for his emphasis on bringing Canadians together. Previous government budgets divided generations, pitting investments in the aging

population at the expense of investing in younger Canadians. At Generation Squeeze – a national, nonpartisan, science-based lobby for citizens, not shareholders – we know a better generational deal means uniting generations. To this end, we will work with newly elected MPs in all parties to make intergenerational solidarity and fairness a priority in future budgets.

For this work, we will draw on our comprehensive study of the federal election platforms. By its own numbers, the Liberal platform would: • increase spending on retirees more than any other national party, while • providing less money for postsecondary and child care than did the NDP and Greens; and • offering fewer details about pricing pollution than did the other opposition platforms.

Liberal MPs and policy advisors would do well to revisit these details in the Liberal platform before finalizing the 2016 federal budget.

At the same time, the Liberal platform was relatively strong at containing

DR. PAUL

KERSHAW Troy Media

medical care spending by comparison with the NDP platform. This, in turn, left fiscal room for the Liberals to propose more new spending for families with children than any other party, which included the Liberal platform borrowing ideas from the Generation Squeeze vision of a New Deal for Families: (i) extending parental leave to 18 months per household, (ii) offering new opportunities for flextime and (iii) investing in child care services. The Liberals also adopted several elements of our vision for a better housing policy. These commitments should make their way into the next federal budget.

The Liberals campaigned on a commit-

ment to review wasteful tax expenditures. This review is timely, and could help the party strengthen assets in their election platform. In a ground breaking study of how the 2015 federal budget breaks down by age, Generation Squeeze identified a wide range of tax expenditures.

Many of these are outdated, inefficient, and cost billions of dollars.

These funds could be reallocated to pay for policy adaptations to ease the time, money, service and environmental pressures that squeeze younger generations while not touching the budgets for medical care and old age security on which the aging population is counting.

In support of government budgets that work for all generations, Generation Squeeze urged parties during the election to commit to reporting the age distribution of government spending and revenue collection. We are therefore heartened that the Liberals promised to make “Statistics Canada fully independent” and to “work with . . . other stakeholders to provide a

broader range of information.” By annually reporting age breakdowns, the federal government could create a new society-wide opportunity to assess whether our country is finding the right balance between our investments in young and old; finding the right balance between investing in earlier and later life stages for each citizen; and finding the right balance between investing in the things that make us healthy and productive, as compared to spending more later on when we fall ill or struggle economically.

This assessment is badly needed, because research shows that the federal government currently spends $20,868 per person age 65+, $7,185 per person age 45 to 64, and $4,349 per person under age 45.

It is time for a better generational deal.

Thankfully, BETTER is always possible in Canada.

So says our new Prime Minister.

Dr. Paul Kershaw is a University of BC policy professor, and Founder of Generation Squeeze (gensqueeze.ca).

4. Awakening two sleeping giants Manitoba Keewatinowi Okimakanak (MKO) Grand Chief Sheila North Wilson observed that Harper “awoke a sleeping giant” in First Nations communities because they turned out in great numbers to vote against him.

For the first time, aboriginal leaders across Canada arranged for buses to take people on reserves to polling stations.

Previously, some indigenous people felt that participating in federal elections compromised their sovereignty.

Having succeeded in electing a record 10 First Nations candidates on Oct. 19, you would expect the giant will stay awake!

It appears that another sleeping giant, Canadian youth, was also jolted into action.

Although there are no official figures, it is believed that young people were very active in this election. From selfies at polling stations to anecdotal reports of youth voting in advance polls, it would appear that a group whose apathy has caused anxiety in the past has seized the baton.

5. Making us realize how fragile democracy is Recent low voter turnout demonstrates that many Canadians had become complacent about democracy.

However, Harper strained the democratic sinews to the limit over the past decade and the people took note. His government is the only one in history to be found in contempt of Parliament. It passed massive omnibus bills and retroactive legislation, and, as the Sen. Mike Duffy affair revealed, engaged in unsavoury practices behind the scenes.

Canadians should be thankful that Stephen Harper pushed the envelope — he provided a clear reminder that the price of democracy is eternal vigilance.

SELKIRK COLLEGE HOCKEY

J. L. CROWE SOCCER

Trail players lead Saints

BY JIM BAILEY

Times Sports Editor

Greater Trail players did the heavy lifting for Selkirk College Saints on Saturday launching the team to a 9-2 thumping of the Eastern Washington University Eagles in BC International Hockey League action at the Castlegar Community Complex.

Trail natives Dallas Calvin, Ryan Edwards, and cousins Danny and Jamie Vlanich combined for 14 points in the 9-2 rout over EWU, with Calvin leading the way with four goals and an assist.

“We had good puck movement tonight with the linemates and the defence getting the puck up to the forwards,” Calvin told Selkirk College media rep Bob Hall. “There’s lots of room to make plays happen on a night like that.”

With five minutes left in the opening frame, Calvin netted his first goal of the night and what proved to be the winning tally when he converted a nice pass from Jamie Vlanich on a 2-on-1 to put the Saints up 3-0.

“It feels like every game it’s getting better,” said the rookie Calvin, who also won a KIJHL championship with Ryan Edwards in 2013 with the Beaver Valley Nitehawks. “It started a little slow in the exhibition games, but we are starting to figure it out.”

The Saints struck early and often with Tylor Branzsen opening the scoring 93 seconds into the game. Ten minutes later, Saints forward Jamie Vlanich dug the puck out of the corner and feathered a pass to defence-

man Danny Vlanich whose low drive beat Eagles goalie Tyler O’Donnell.

Calvin netted his second of the night to make it 4-0 on a set up from both Vlaniches with 1:08 remaining in the first, and Dane Feeney put the Saints up 5-0 with nine seconds left. But the Eagles’ Brayden Hanson finally got EWU on the board, beating Saints goalie Brett Huber to make it 5-1 with no time left on the clock.

Edwards and Danny Vlanich gave the Saints a 7-1 lead in the second period, and Calvin put the finishing touches on an epic night in the third.

He one-timed a centering pass from linemate Edwards for his hat trick.

Then with just over three minutes left in the game, Calvin stripped the Eagles defenceman and walked in all alone, beating O’Donnell with just over three minutes to play in the final frame for his league-leading ninth goal of the season and 13th point in five games.

Brett Huber got the win in net for the Saints stopping 29 of 31 shots, while Selkirk fired 28 at the EWU net.

In addition to Calvin’s four-point night, Edwards had a goal and two assists, Danny Vlanich two goals and an assist, while Jamie added three helpers for the Saints. The three stars of the game were Calvin, Huber and Danny Vlanich.

The Saints improve their record to 3-2 for a share of the BCIHL lead with Trinity Western University.

Selkirk College’s next game goes on Halloween Saturday at 7 p.m. versus Simon Fraser University.

TRAIL COMMERCIAL HOCKEY LEAGUE

Allstar back on track Uphill week for Gericks

BY TIMES STAFF Allstar clawed its way into a share of first place in the Trail Commercial Hockey League (TCHL) with a pair of wins last week.

Allstar eked out a 6-5 win over Re/Max on Thursday and a 5-3 victory over Gericks Sunday afternoon to improve its record to 3-2-1 and seize a share of first place in the TCHL with the 3-1-1 OK Tire.

In Sunday’s match, Derek Steep scored what proved to be the winner, finishing of a Tristan Read and Scott Morriseau set up to give Allstar a 4-0 lead with nine minutes left in the second period.

The loss was Gericks second of the week after falling to the Tire 4-2 on Thursday to drop into a share of second spot with Re/Max. Allstar jumped out to a 3-0 first period lead on goals from Conway, Morrisseau, and Read.

After Steep made it four-

zip, Craig Clare scored his seventh of the season to get Gericks on the board.

But Morrisseau restored the four-goal cushion, netting his 10th point of the season to give Allstar a 5-1 lead, before Eric Hill and Mike Boisvert tallied late markers for Gericks to make it a 5-3 match.

Morrisseau and Conway had threepoint games in the winning cause, while Cody Deadmarch earned the ‘W’ in net for Allstar.

FROM PAGE 7 In Sunday’s other match, Re/Max forward Graham Proulx broke out of his scoring slump with a vengeance, scoring five times in a 9-5 victory over Arlington. Proulx netted three straight goals to open the first period, before Jeremy Robinson replied for the Arlington, and Mike Broyd’s fifth goal of the season made it 3-2 heading to a wild second period that saw seven goals scored.

Reigning TCHL scoring champion, Pat Iannone, netted two, and Kris Davis one for the ‘A’, but Re/Max got goals from Devyn Hill, Proulx, Riley Deadmarsh, and Jason Vecchio to give the realtors a 7-5 lead heading to the third. Late markers from Proulx and Luke Russell sealed the

deal to give Re/Max its second win.

On Thursday, the Tire skated to a 4-2 victory over Gericks in its only game of the week. Goals from Kelly Mackay and Kyle Butin put the Tire up 2-0 in the opening frame on their way to the victory.

In Thursday’s other match, Allstar’s Walker Sidoni scored with 30 seconds remaining in the second period to break a 5-5 tie for the win over Re/Max. Cory Neal scored twice, while Morrisseau had a goal and two assists in the winning cause. Thomas Abenante scored four goals for Re/ Max and Kieran Hill added a single.

Jann Arden to perform in Trail in March Tickets for March 22 show go on sale Thursday at Charles Bailey Theatre box office SUBMITTED TRAIL –The much-celebrated multiplatinum, award winning artist, Jann Arden, will be performing March 22 in Trail at the Charles Bailey Theatre.

Her performance in Trail is one of two concerts scheduled for the Kootenays, the other will be March 23 at Cranbrook’s Key City theatre.

Tickets for the Kootenay shows go on sale Thursday, Oct. 29 at the Charles Bailey box office in Trail.

“We are very excited to bring an artist of this calibre to an intimate theatre setting, right across the province of B.C.” said F.J. Hurtak, President of the Kootenay Concert Connection. “It will be one very special night for the entire audience because Jann Arden is a Canadian original and a brilliant multidimensional talent.”

Arden is a Canadian born, singer songwriter, broadcaster and author who

A division of

catapulted onto the Canadian music scene in 1993 with the release of her debut album “Time for Mercy”, featuring the hit single, “I Would Die For You.” A year later with “Living Under June”, she would have her career breakout hit, “Insensitive,” that would solidify her position in the music world.

Arden has released 12 albums with 19 top-ten singles to her credit. Her most recent recording, “Everything Almost” was released in 2014.

With Grammy Award winning producer Bob Rock behind the console, the 11-track disc is considered to be Arden’s finest work-progressive, yet retaining the magic that is distinctly her’s.

Recently she just released a much anticipated Christmas album, just in time for the holiday season.

In her career to date she has received eight Juno Awards Including Female Artist of the Year and Songwriter of the Year. She has also been the recipient of 10 SOCAN Awards, four Western Canada Music Awards, a Much Music Video Award, three prairie Music Awards

and an Alberta Recording Industry Association Award.

Arden is the proud recipient of a star on Canada’s Walk of Fame; she has been inducted into the Canadian Association of Broadcasters Hall of Fame, and has been given the Vantage Women of Originality Award.

In 2012 she was awarded the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee medal and in 2013 was inducted into the Western Canadian Music Alliance Hall of Fame.

In addition to being a singer/songwriter, Arden is an author of note. She has written three books and her best selling self-penned memoir, “Falling Backwards.”

Arden is also a much in demand speaker, peppering her words of wisdom with her signature humour. In 2010, Jann took on broadcast duties as the host of “Being Jann”, an hour long talk show on CBC Radio, and in 2011 she sat in the judge’s chair fort Canada Sings on Global TV. She has also made several appearances on television sitcoms includ-
