Just after 1 p.m. on Thursday, October 27, a two-vehicle accident occurred on Wallinger Ave. near the intersection with Ross Street. A truck was damaged and an SUV hit the Caldwell Agencies building, breaking the window. At press time, there was no word on injuries or cause of the accident.

Work stoppage at Kootenay Savings

If we’re locked out, we’re not going back, Steelworkers say. That’s a strike, says KSCU C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor

If they lock us out, don’t expect our members back to work on Monday morning. That’s the message from Jeff Bromley of the United Steelworkers regarding the one day lock out notice Kootenay Savings Credit Union issued on Wednesday this week.

Both parties were in a legal strike/lock out position as of Friday, October 21, and three days of last minute negotiations failed this week.

By Tuesday of this week, union members had begun some job action, consisting mainly of handing out pamphlets and not working overtime, Bromley told the Bulletin.

At that point, Kootenay Savings announced a one-day lock out this Friday. The branches affected, those in Trail, Castlegar, Fruitvale, Salmo, South Slocan, Kaslo and Kimberley, were to be closed on Friday.

“I assume that’s in response to our job actions,” Bromley said Thursday. “But if they lock us out, we’re locked out.”

Calling it a one day lock out is simply semantics, he said.

“When one party decides to lock the doors, you can call it a one day lock out if you want, but we have the right to say we’re done.”

Bromley says when a lock out occurs, or a strike for that matter, the terms of the collective agreement are changed.

Picket lines will be up at branches on Friday and continue next week, he said.

FOR THE BULLETIN

On October 25th, 2016 at approximately 8:00pm, Cranbrook RCMP received information of a possible location of a stolen vehicle bearing Alberta plate BTY7944. Police located the vehicle and the driver fled at high speed. Police did not pursue. The vehicle was located again on Hwy 3/95 where the vehicle was boxed in by police and the lone oc-

cupant, was safely taken into custody. There were no injuries during this event to report. The suspect is a Kimberly resident who has outstanding warrants from Calgary as well as Kimberley and is currently awaiting disposition for several other offences.

S/Sgt. LEE commends the officers involved for their diligence and quick thinking in bringing this situation to a safe end.

less cats in Cranbrook’s feral cat colonies. Fortunately, she was scooped up by BC SPCA staff and brought into a warm foster home. She is one of the lucky ones.

Brenna Baker, BC SPCA East Kootenay Branch manager said outdoor life is hardest on kittens. “Sadly, many do not survive. Homeless cats across the province suffer needlessly from illness, injury, frostbite, predator attacks, starvation and more.

“This preventable problem can easily be solved with British Columbians’ taking responsibility for their cats by ensuring they are spayed or neutered by the time they are six months old.”

are on the road to a healthier, happier life. To date, more than 550 kittens and cats have been spayed and neutered at no cost to their caretakers. The goal of the program is to reduce the number of accidental litters and unwanted kittens by removing all cost barriers.

“With just over two months left in the program, we are asking the community to help us achieve our goal and

take advantage of this limited-time resource,” Baker said. “Spaying and neutering your pet is one of the best things that you can do to help cat overpopulation, but the decision also has benefits for cat guardians.”

Spaying and neutering provides lifelong health benefits and behaviours such as spraying, roaming, fighting and howling often subside. Even if the cat is an indoor cat, his/her risk for developing common cancers of the reproductive system is significantly reduced, Baker said.

Currently, all Cranbrook residents can fix their cats for free by contacting the Cranbrook SPCA. The program is expected to finish in December, but may wrap up sooner if the remaining 200 surgeries are reached before the goal date.

“Spaying and neutering your pet is one of the best things that you can do to help,” Baker said.

“We are excited to provide no-cost spay/neuter surgeries for the people who want to do it, but can’t afford the cost.”

Sullivan Mining Railway seeks funds from City C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor

Last winter, former Sullivan Mine geologist Paul Ransom donated his extensive collection of Sullivan core samples and maps to the Sullivan Underground Mining Railway Society. At the time, Ransom said that though many universities would covet such a collection, he would prefer it stay in Kimberley.

He said the samples were of such value and interest that they should be preserved and put on permanent display in an indoor and secure location.

Since that time the SUMR has been planning to display the collection in the basement of the Downtown Station, but renovations and suitable display cases have to be built first. The budget for the entire project is just over $70,000.

The Society has been successful in getting some grants, one being $8,917.47 of Columbia Basin Trust Community Initiatives Funding and other a $20,000 grant

from the Columbia Kootenay Cultural Alliance.

The latter grant however, is contingent on matching funding.

Society president Mick Henningson says that the Society applied for $20,000 from Teck and were turned down last spring. But Teck’s finances have improved since then, he says, and he will be asking them for $10,000 again.

The other $10,000, the Society is requesting from the City of Kimberley.

While the Railway finished the 2016 season in the black, it was not a stellar year in terms of growth. And that, Henningson says, is because the attraction was difficult to access during the construction on Gerry Sorensen Way this summer.

“Victoria Day, before the construction started, was our busiest day this summer,” he said. “We were trapped behind construction all season.”

Henningson says that due to a major marketing campaign, it was expected revenue would be up

by about 10 per cent in 2016. Instead it was down 8 per cent.

He points out that businesses in Vancouver who were affected by Sky Train construction did receive some compensation.

He also says that if the Society cannot secure the matching funds, the other grants will have to be returned and the project cancelled.

“We provide a unique tourist attraction, this year to 10,084 people and 63 dogs, to be exact, seasonal employment this year to 13 people and have a strong volunteer base. If I may speak on behalf of all our volunteers and staff, we work to not only preserve the history of the Sullivan Mine, but to also provide a great tourist attraction along with a economic benefit to the community. We have just enough cash left to cover our costs until our next operating season. If we cannot obtain matching funding soon we will have to cancel this project. To my knowledge, certainly since my involvement going back

are asking for a little help from the City.”

Henningson added that the collection was an important part of Kim-

berley’s history, and a number of university geology classes have visited it in its temporary display quarters, which have to

be set up each time.

“We want it on permanent display. Nobody has a collection like that.”

A large grizzly bear has been spotted several times in the Meadowbrook area in the past couple of weeks. The Meadowbrook Community Association has put out emails to all its members warning them the bear is in the area.

Anyone who has an close encounter with the bear is asked to call the RAPP hotline 1-877-982-7277 (RAPP). Conservation Officers say it is not uncommon for grizzlies to be in that area at this time of year and are not too concerned unless it exhibits problem behaviour.

Kimberley man heading for the Ironman FOR THE BULLETIN

Kimberley’s Holger Bohm recently returned from sunny Mexico where he participated in the ITU amateur world championships, representing Canada in his age group, where he finished 39th out of 80 and second Canadian in the very competitive Masters age group. “ An amazing experience,” he said “Competing on the same course at the elite athletes, surrounded by some of the best amateurs in the world from all kinds of different countries, swimming in crystal clear water and biking and running under palm trees — it was an experience I will surely never forget.”

This race is only the first leg on his three year journey to the Ironman World Championships in Hawaii, planned for 2018 — a first leg in which he raised enough

money to donate $1200 to the heart and stroke foundation just a week ago.

“Thanks go to my friends and colleagues who supported me all summer.”

Holger embarked on this journey in memory of his father who, despite being a fit and competitive triathlete himself, passed away as result of a stroke in 2014 at the age of 59. By

teaming up with the Heart and Stroke Foundation and collecting donations while on his journey, he hopes to support research to avoid these kind of deaths in the future.

“Heart related issues which can lead to stroke are underestimated in endurance sport. People think they work out, they are fit and at no risk from stroke, but especially for endurance athletes it is very crucial to have regular checkups to make sure the heart is up to the stress continuous training puts on it.

“Just last winter, an elite athlete from France died of a heart attack at the age of 31” Bohm’s ambitious journey will include the

world championships over the Olympic distance in 2016 — which he already completed, next up the world championship over the half iron distance in 2017 to move on the grueling test of endurance by competing at Hawaii ironman in 2018. For both races, he will have to qualify in a very competitive age group.

“The Kona district in Hawaii is the birthplace of Ironman long-distance triathlon, and serves as the annual World Championship, bringing in thousands of international participants to race one of the world’s toughest course.

Participating in this event is the dream of almost every long-distance triathlete, but the

qualification process for this race is extremely challenging. Candidates must compete in a qualifying Ironman event and place in the top 3 of one’s age group, in an increasingly competitive field.”

Holger started triathlon at the age of 14, introduced to it by his father. Growing up in Germany he participated in many small triathlons until, at the age of 21, he participated in his first Ironman competition with his father by his side. From that day on he was hooked onto long distance triathlon.

“We raced many triathlons together and our lifelong dream was to compete in Hawaii together. As that is no longer possible, I am taking on this challenge in his memory. Not only do I plan on realizing a dream, but I am also planning to reach an ambitious fundraising goal of $100,000 in partnership with the Heart and Stoke Foundation, for research to help discover the correlation of stroke-incidence in en-

durance sport.”

Holger is planning to share his passion for the sport of triathlon and has plans to build up Kimberly’s reputation in becoming a training destination for triathletes in the east Kootenay region.

“We have the pool, the roads and the mountains, all that’s lacking really is a track, but other than that we have perfect training conditions here in Kimberley and I think there is enough local potential to start a triathlon development group and to attract people from further away.”

“My son and daughter are in Kimberley’s Seahorse Swim Club, and some of these kids are exceptional swimmers and runners, a perfect base to make a future top triathlete if the structure was in place.”

Bohm is a certified coach with Triathlon Canada and will pursue this vision further.

Holger’s fundraising activities and race reports can be followed at enduranceloop.ca.

ACCESS TO SCHOOL CRITICALLY NEEDED Now that we have a new school on top of the hill I think it is high time consideration should be given as to how students are going to get to school.

At the present time the only access they have is by the road, which is very steep and dangerous.

I am sure the general public have noticed the students struggling, slipping and sliding with 20 to 30 pounds of books in their arms. Most times it is difficult for any of us to keep our feet under such conditions with both arms free.

More serious is the danger of cars slipping on the hill, and sliding into students with the result that someone will be injured or killed. It is my understanding that at least one car has been damaged and a boy was nearly knocked down already and the winter season has just begun.

The solution to this problem would be a covered-in stairway to the school from the vicinity of the Tire Shop.

The City Council has discussed this situation but since they are working on a budget it seems that their first consideration is not “the need”, but whether they can pay for it NOW. It is my candid opinion that “necessity” should take precedence and i am sure the general public would back up the Council 100 per cent on this issue.

All the material necessary for such a project with the exception of the cement for the footings are produced locally and there are plenty of men capable of doing the job walking around looking for something to do.

Let’s get busy and get the job done.

If we can build a million dollar school, surely we are not so short-sighted that we will not spend a few thousand more to give proper access to it.

Climate change session this weekend FOR THE BULLETIN

This Saturday, October 29, the second in a series of three family-centered programs, Climate Changes, Housing Dreams, will be led by Dave Quinn and hosted upstairs at

the Kimberley Public Library from 10-11 AM. Last weekend 35 people, ranging in age from toddler to grandparent, came out to the first event, the Stream Trailer, held outside at the Open Gate Garden.

While getting their

hands dirty in flowing water and sand, the group played like engineers and explored the impacts people, plants and animals have on local water systems.

Produced by Mainstreams, the goal of this family series is to ex-

Council says no to rezoning application C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor

Owners of a property at 931 Dogwood in Kimberley had applied for a rezoning of the property to allow for tourist accommodation. The property is zoned for B&B use, which allows guest accommodation but with the owner present.

The application asks for tourist accommodation, which allows tourists to rent the property without the owner present.

There were delegations both for and opposed to the rezoning at Council Monday evening for the public hearing, and in the end Council denied the request.

While the proponents argued that the ownership group did intend to use the property primarily for personal use, they expected it would be rented 20 per cent of the time. They also said they would limit guests to eight people, likely two golfing foursomes. They told Council they had stopped renting it out “quite a while ago”.

“It’s quite apparent there are some concerns,” said Ian Sanderson, one of the owners. “It was brought to our attention last year that we were in contravention of the zoning and we own that.”

The group interpreted the B&B

guidelines incorrectly, he said.

“When neighbours complained, we stopped. We want to be stewards of the property and we want to be compliant with the bylaw.”

Darryl Price spoke for the neighbours. He told Council he was aware of multiple letters against the rezoning received by Council and that he estimated 48 homeowners in the area were opposed.

“We have had conversations and exchanged emails with the owners numerous times,” he said.

He said that over this past Labour Day Weekend, three people were on his own deck trying to get into his house.

“They were saying they rented 931 Dogwood and can’t find it.”

He also said there have been noise complaints called into the RCMP and the fire department had to be called for a gas issue once.

“There’s been a complete inability of the rental group to manage the property,” he said. “We one hundred per cent oppose this application and ask you to reject it.”

Council recognized that a strong majority of neighbours were against it, almost 100 per cent, noted Coun. Albert Hoglund said. Council voted unanimously

Boil water notice rescinded C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor

The Boil Water Notice issued by the City of Kimberley was rescinded Wednesday morning but a Water Quality Advisory remains in effect.

Testing on Wednes-

day showed that water quality was fair (1 to 5 NTU) according to Interior Health’s Guidelines. Interior Health still recommends that children, the elderly and persons with weakened immune systems drink boiled

water when turbidity levels are above 1 NTU. Prior to the Notice being lifted, turbidity levels were above 5.

The Notice was put into effect after a slough along the banks of Mark Creek in the watershed.

The Way it Was From page 4 This to me is an emergency and the intention of this letter is not to criticize our council, but to arouse the public to how serious it can become if some of our young people were injured.

plore aspects of our local watershed from different perspectives while having fun connecting as a group.

Climate Changes, Housing Dreams is intended for a wide range of ages to partake together. Starting with a discussion of what climate change is and how it affects us personally, the group will explore adaptation and collectively design future homes and neighborhoods that will cope, and even thrive, with future impacts. From child to adult, this is an opportunity to get creative together, incorpo-

rating a variety of perspectives. While all ages are welcome and encouraged to come, this particular session could be challenging for preschoolers to fully engage in. There will be more drawing and discussion than active play.

Many locals know Dave Quinn personally and if not, probably recognize the name. Wearing an impressively long list of hats, including wildlife biologist, teacher, wilderness guide, conservationist, writer and photographer, to name a few, he has built quite a name for himself in the Kootenays and

beyond. As the facilitator this weekend, Dave is guaranteed to lead an engaging group experience. His passion for sustainability and depth of knowledge of our wild backyard will be hard to contain in just an hour.

“We are already seeing evidence of climate change locally”, says Quinn, “this is an opportunity to get creative exploring the possibilities and start to plan for further change down the road.”

There will be complimentary refreshments and cookies baked by Erna Jensen of ‘de lights’ to fuel the morning.

Mainstreams has been working on water education in the Kootenays for the past 13 years and is launching a Streamkeeper program in Kimberley after years of successful projects in Cranbrook. The main focus is keeping riparian vegetation healthy in our watershed. Riparian vegetation grows on the banks of creeks and is vital in preventing erosion and retaining water on the land. The riparian is also a prime defense against extreme weather events such as prolonged rainstorms or days of rain on wet snow.

Stay tuned for the third and final in this series, Creature Crafting, a hands-on exploration of macro invertebrates with Patty Kolesnichenko on November 5 at 10 AM at the Library.

This program is made possible by funding from Columbia Basin Trust with assistance from the Fortis BC Community Investment Fund. With this generous support the program is free.

EYE ON YOUR CITY A GOOD PLACE TO BE. Kimberley and Marysville Water Line Flushing - In order to ensure safe drinking water and maintain the Water Distribution System, the City annually flushes water lines in the community using City fire hydrants. The City will be flushing hydrants throughout the community beginning in Townsite (Lois Creek area) and moving through the entire system.

Residents may notice discoloration in the water during this process. Please note that this is not a public health concern. The City monitors the quality of the water during this process. Flushing and maintenance operations will be underway during the next several weeks. In the event that cloudy water is experienced, turn on an outside tap (preferred) or your bathtub faucet and run until the water clears up. For further information please contact the Operations & Environment Services Department at 250.427.9660.

Catch Basins - As winter approaches, the City is asking homeowners to help keep catch basins clear by not sweeping leaves from your property onto the streets. We appreciate your assistance in helping to keep the catch basins clear and ready to handle any precipitation. If you see a catch basin that is clogged or full of debris and cannot clear it, please call the Operations Department at 250.427.9660 and we will send someone to take care of it. Thank you for your cooperation.

On – Street Parking - As we are preparing for the winter season, all trailers and vehicles from on-street parking should have been removed by October 15th. This includes all travel, recreational, and utility trailers. Any containers or recreational trailers without a Street Occupancy Permit that are not moved before October 31st could be subject to towing and/or fines.

Be Bear Smart –There have been several bear sightings recently within the City and on the Rails to Trails. Bears are in search of food before going into hibernation. Some simple steps to follow to help avoid a run-in with bears are: • Store garbage in a secure building or a bear proof container until pickup. Do not put it out for collection before 5:00 a.m. on the day of collection.

• Pick all fruit off your trees daily and allow the fruit to ripen indoors. Do not allow fruit to accumulate on the ground.

• Take birdfeeders inside and keep the ground clear of spilled birdseed.

• Keep pets and pet food indoors, if pets are fed outside please ensure the food is all cleaned up.

• Ensure that your BBQ is completely cleaned after use, making sure to clean the grease trap thoroughly.

Using common sense all year round helps limit humanbear conflict, but being extra cautious right now will aid in saving a bear’s life and help to avoid a potentially dangerous situation. Remember, a fed bear is a dead bear!

Can you imagine vigilantes patrolling going to be voter fraud. As he told a rally in Colorado Springs, “Voter fraud is all voting places? Is this 2016?

It’s hard to imagine anyone actually too common, and then they criticize us for saying that,” he said. “But take a look buying into this idea, but people are signing at Philadelphia, what’s been going on, up. Will they actually show up at polling take a look at Chicago, take a look at St. places with their little badges? No one Louis. Take a look at some of these cities, knows. But that mindset, that belief that where you see things happening that are America is on the verge of hell itself should Clinton be elected, that they have been horrendous.”

Letters to the Editor

sliding steadily down hill since the election of Barack Obama, is very real.

Take the goonish “militia” that took over the wildlife refuge in Oregon earlier this year. They were mocked by the public at large, called Y’all Quaida and Yokel Harem, but they were very, very serious about their “mission”. And their supporters were serious too. They believed these guys were saving the nation. There are militia groups like that all over the U.S. In fact studies have shown that these so-called “Patriot” groups have exploded in popularity since the election of the first African American president.

That mindset is very present in some of Trump’s supporters, and the more the man at the top brays about rigged elections and voter fraud, the more they feel as if something will be stolen from them on November 8, the more they will be unwilling to accept the results of the election.

The same people who were so horrified at being called a “basket of deplorables” seem to be contemplating some pretty deplorable behaviour.

By the way, Republican congressmen and women promise that if Hillary Clinton is elected she can look forward to more witch hunts by way of congressional committee, more obstructionism, more hearings and possible impeachment. Now that’s deplorable.

Party Nomination Rules

I am writing this letter in response to an article which I read regarding the selection of Gerry Taft as our NDP candidate for the Columbia River-Revelstoke riding. I have no issue with Mr. Taft as the candidate, but do have a real issue with what was written in the article explaining the equity rules for candidates who are replacing the existing MLA. The article quotes: The equity rule states if a man retires from an NDP-held seat in the province, the man’s replacement must be a woman or an “equity seeking” man; for example, a man who is a visible minority, a person with a disabilty or someone from the LGBTQ community.

I guess the most qualified person is no longer acceptable to the NDP. I know it’s 2016 but if this is not an example of discrimination, I do not know what would be. I can only imagine if the equity rule stated that if a visible minority was retiring, he or she could only be replaced by a white heterosexual male. In order to qualify, Mr. Taft admitted to being bi-sexual after he had accepted the nomination. His sexual orientation is of no concern of mine, nor should it be.

I believe in equal rights for everyone but the NDP’s stance on this issue is about as inequitable as anything I have ever seen in government. It makes Mr. Trudeau’s policy of a 50/50 men/women cabinet look almost reasonable. I would love to see a cabinet of 100 per cent women who are of any ethnicity, any sexual orientation, and any disability, provided they are best candidates for the job. Picking anything based on gender or race in this day and age was supposed to be taboo, I thought.

It is idiotic thinking like this by the different political parties that are pushing people to support someone like Donald Trump. I guess you always think you have seen it all but are constantly surprised by the things our politicians can come up with.

Harry Caldwell Kimberley

NDP runs into democracy

Brian Hutchinson in the National Post, Oct. 19: “Want equity status in British Columbia’s NDP? You can’t keep mum about why you fit the criteria.”

Mike Smyth in The Province, Oct. 19: “NDP’s equity mandate backfires as mayor forced out of the closet.”

Comedy or farce, we have a mayor claiming to be a minority but not willing to state what his minority is, though it is a qualifier to enter the candidate selection process.

The Columbia Valley Pioneer, Oct. 18: “The party in their equity mandate allows people to make confidential disclosures.” If so, it’s time the party woke up to democracy. Gerry Taft’s belief “that an MLA should represent all people led him to keep his equity status private.”

How does an MLA ever represent all the people while choosing a path of sneaky confidentiality over transparency? A politician unable to distinguish public from private is hardly ready for the big house.

Taft, in the Cranbrook Townsman, Oct. 21: “I am choosing now to disclose so that we can turn our attention away from the equity mandate towards issues that really matter to this region.”

Equity mandate—a form of quota and a side show to the big event—will remain an issue, while transparency and character needs a lot of work.

According to the National Post, Spring Hawes, who ran against Taft for the nomination, expressed concerns to BC NDP brass, asking for clarity and some transparency. She received no reply.

Central Soviet Planning is not there to handle issues percolating up; it’s there to dictate.

Les Leyne in the Victoria Times-Colonist, Oct. 20 (NDP quota policy theatre of the absurd): “How can someone represent a minority if they won’t state the minority to which they belong?”

To some, facts and logic and history don’t matter.

William G. Hills Cranbrook

Let democratic process unfold

It appears that Mayor Pratt, who ran on a platform of fixing our roads, and not raising taxes, is very concerned with citizens having a different opinion than his on the matter of the a $10 million, 20 year tax burden.

Rather than hosting a public information session, he chose to hold a closed media event so that he could point fingers and malign any resident using the only available democratic process to oppose an unnecessary tax. This is confrontational, divisive and disrespectful.

‘Coming out swinging’ against citizens and threatening to spend $50,000 on a referendum regardless of meeting the AAP requirements, is an attempt at undermining the democratic

process. He may as well have said “it’s my way or else.”

Mayor and Council should have expected some unhappy taxpayers on such a large loan. Friends of mine are expecting a $500 per year tax increase on their business, which is hardly as Mr. Pratt stated “a package of cigarettes, it’s a glass of beer, it’s a cup of coffee” each month. He attempted to trivialize the impact of this 20 year tax burden.

The young man organizing residents opposed to this potential tax burden, was meticulous in getting a fact sheet prepared for those who agreed to help get signatures opposing the $10 million loan. There are others collecting signatures on their own.

Do we need the roads done in two years, when they can be done in five at the current rate of taxation? The one per cent dedicated road improvement tax, implemented many years ago, has been used by every sitting Council since. To say that the previous Council “did nothing about the infrastructure and that’s part of the problem of what we have today” is incorrect and spiteful.

Couldn’t Council use reserve funds towards roads? Mayor Pratt said they are applying for the $120 billion federal fund and $148 million provincial fund. Why not wait for those and alleviate this potential tax burden?

The Mayor appears unable or unwilling to meet with the public, allow democratic processes to unfold, and accept the outcome.

Glass recycling in Kimberley

After finding no pubic recycling bins for glass at the Kimberley locations, my household is bringing all of our glass to the transfer station.

There has not been any notification to the residents here of the withdrawal of these bins. I have contacted the RDEK office and was informed that the questionRUN of TIL recycling glass- STOP comes END OF APRIL FOR SUMMER - THEN RESTART SEPT.6TH down to dollars and cents.

How can such thinking be tolerated in a world that is trying to re-use and recycle? Recycled glass is an ingredient used to manufacture new glass. If transportation to a glass manufacturing facility is too expensive, perhaps the RDEK and other municipal governments could build a centre in British Columbia.

The big plastic island in the Pacific Ocean is an ecological nightmare. Glass is cleaner (but expensive to transport). What is the answer to us consumers when we have a green-earth conscience? In Creston, the local dairy now supplies us with milk in returnable bottles. Should all manufacturers bottle their food, drugs and other consumer products in the same size bottles? This would enable provincial or country-wide manufacturers to re-use the glass in their local factories.

Leadership for solutions to the recycling questions that I have raised must start somewhere. Is there an out of the box thinker out there?

Sound levels at Ice games

Ice! Ice! Ice! Cranbrook is so lucky to have these wonderful young men playing the game they love; plus, they give so much public service back to the community.

We who love our Kootenay Ice are having a huge issue with the sound system at Western Financial Place. It was loud last year, but this year it is much worse. Being as we are desperate to get more fans out, I have talked to many who are not coming. Their reason being they can’t stand the noise level of the music and announcers. When we complained, the answer was “hear are some ear plugs.” They don’t work! I bought heavy duty ones and still have to cover my ears at times.

I tell people to complain — their reply is ‘I have but nobody listens.’

It is not necessary to yell into the microphone. In many places in the arena the sound is so loud the words are garbled and can’t be understood.

I would suggest that someone who is in authority and understands the sound system to come and sit where the fans sit, to hear why we are complaining.

The players deserve to have us there to cheer them on. I yell as loud as anyone when they score a goal. I do not want to give up my great Kootenay Ice tickets.

Avs to receive Royal welcome back home COTR volleyball teams play home opener against Douglas College tonight, following banner-raising for women’s championship BR AD MCLEOD

For the first time this season, the College of the Rockies volleyball program will be hosting games in Cranbrook and they’ll do so with a shiny new banner hanging above them.

As last season’s PACWEST provincial champions, the women’s team will have their historical achievement raised to the roof of the college’s newly renovated gymnasium. They are the first team in COTR history to win a championship and will be honoured in a special pre-game banner-raising ceremony at 5:30 p.m. tonight.

The team will then face off against the Douglas College Royals at 6 p.m. before the Avs men play at 8 p.m. “[The banner-raising] is going to be fantastic, the ladies should be very proud of their accomplishment last year,” women’s coach John Swanson said. “[It’s] historic that it’s the first PACWEST championship at the college [and] the returning players will always be a part of that.

“I think they should be extremely proud and happy with the achievement that they made.

[They should] keep that in mind — what it takes to get to that level — and use that same intensity that we had last year in our match against Douglas.”

Despite the excitement of the event, the match against Douglas College will be a tough challenge for the reigning champs. The Royals women’s squad enter the weekend 4-0 in PACWEST league play, having so far swept Columbia Bible College and Capilano in their opening matches.

“I think they should be extremely proud [to have the banner raised] ... [they should] use that same intensity that we had last year in our match against Douglas.”

John Swanson “[Douglas] is going to come in with a fair bit of confidence, understandably, and it’ll be important for us to make sure that we come out and match that,” Swanson said. “[We need to] play with high intensity and high energy, and utilize the home crowd that we haven’t had this season.

“We’ll, fortunately, get [to play in front of our home fans] this weekend and [try to] use that energy to our best advantage.”

Swanson said that practice has been going well since they’ve re-

turned from their somewhat disappointing opening weekend on Vancouver Island, where they went 1-3 against Camosun and VIU. “Being in our own gym has been nice, the renovations are fantastic, so it’s a great atmosphere for the ladies,” he said. “We’ve just been able to work on improving certain areas and certain skill sets [and] the team did a good job in getting together and scouting what to expect from Douglas. They’re playing real well right now, so it’ll be a good challenge for us.”

The men also had a rough start on Vancouver Island going 0-4 against two of the conference’s top-ranked clubs, Camosun and VIU, and they’ll once again be in a tough situation against a Royals team who, just like their women’s squad, are undefeated through four games. “[Douglas] is always going to be a welldrilled team, they lost their head coach but they’ll always have very well executed skills,” said starting outside hitter Patrik Toze. “They have strong left sides and a strong middle but I think if we serve well and pass well — as well as not make as many errors as we did last road-trip — we should be fine.”

CBC BEARCATS ATHLETICS

The women’s Avalanche team pose after winning the PACWEST Championship in February. They’ll have their banner raised at the COTR gym before the home opener tonight.

During their first road trip, the Avs men were let down by too many unforced errors but were encouraged by their closing sets against VIU where they put up over 20 points in each game and ended their road swing competitively.

It’s a sign of resiliency that Toze believes will allow them to turn the corner once they’re up to full speed.

“We were mainly let down in those games by our runs, we sometimes let them have up to 8 points in a row and that just can’t happen anymore,” he said. “We know that when we get our stuff together and

really come together as a team, we’re going to be annihilating teams, without a doubt.”

Just like the women, the men have taken advantage of the period in between games to make some serious strides in practice.

“We improve every training session, it comes from touches, experience, getting people those reps... we’ve been moving a lot around with our setters, getting them to set better balls more consistently. Come game time, we’re going to be going full-throttle.”

In their opening four matches, Toze has led the men’s side offen-

sively putting up 31 kills, while also picking up 19 digs, three blocks, and two aces.

The women’s team was led by right side hitter Mikaela Pushor who had 36 digs, 39 kills, and 13 blocks over their four matches.

Libero Alexa Koshman also played a key role, picking up a team-leading 36 digs in just three matches while second-year outside hitter Adriel Goodman was also strong with 27 digs and 31 kills, while playing every set.

Speaking to the Townsman earlier this week, Koshman said she expects a very warm reception for their big

night.

“I can guarantee that we’ll have a ridiculous amount of support,” she said of the home opener. “Knowing how our home games were last year and the people that have come up to us, [it should be a great crowd].”

After their big return on Friday night, the Avs will be back in action against the Douglas College Royals again on Saturday afternoon.

The women play at 1 p.m. while the men go at 3 p.m.

Both teams will be hoping that by this time next year, there will be a couple more banners hanging above them.

Nitros head into weekend red hot JOSH LOCKHART

The Kimberley Dynamiters enter the weekend as one of the hottest teams in the KIJHL, going 9-1 in their past ten games, and outscoring opponents 29 to nine in their past four.

The Dynamiters host the Nelson Leafs today before heading up the Columbia Valley to Invermere to play the Rockies.

It will be the first time this season that the Dynamiters see the Leafs (8-5-0-1). Nelson has won four of their last five. Their offence is led by Dale Howell

— who has 10 goals and eight assists — and

by Sawyer Hunt — who has five goals and 12 assists.

Hunt should be a familiar name to Nitros fans, as he was a part of the 2015 Dynamiters Championship team, and was a key member of the team when the Nitros returned to the KIJHL finals last year.

The last time the Dynamiters were on a winning streak and faced the Columbia Valley Rockies (3-8-02), it didn’t go over well for the Nitros. Rockies goaltender Connor McKay put on a clinic

turning aside 48 of 50 shots, en-route to a 3-2 victory on Saturday, October 8. That was the last game the Rockies won before going winless in their last four games.

“Right now our focus is 100% on Nelson until Saturday morning,” said Dynamiters Head Coach and General Manager, Derek Stuart, saying he’s taking the weekend one game at a time.

Having outscored their last four opponents by at least four goals, the mantra from last season “not too

high, not too low” may be of utmost importance this weekend.

The Dynamiters host the Leafs tonight at the Civic Centre with opening faceoff at 7pm.

Then Saturday in Invermere puck drop is 7:30pm.

MATCH STICKS: Caige Sterzer and Drew Van den Bosch are serving a two-game suspension and are eligible to play October 29.

Ice enter Wheat Kings weekend with optimism Strong play in losing effort against Prince George has Kootenay hopeful they’ll pick up first home win with Brandon in town BR AD MCLEOD

The Kootenay Ice lost their seventh straight home game on Wednesday night against the WHL-leading Prince George Cougars but it hasn’t discouraged them from thinking they might finally pick up a win in Cranbrook this weekend.

So far this season, the Ice are at the bottom of the league standings through 13 games, but look to be headed in a positive direction based on their play against the Cougars. They play the Brandon Wheat Kings tonight and on Sunday. “[Wednesday was] a hockey game that we could have and should have won,” said coach Luke Pierce following the 5-3 loss, in which the Ice outshot their opponents 35-32. “With time and a little more confidence, I think [we’ll] win more of those games. I’ll take that [though] because the mistakes that we made are fixable. I can’t fix desire and heart and effort, so as long as we don’t relapse in that department, I think things will start looking up.”

The team doesn’t have to wait long to build upon their most recent effort, but they once again find themselves facing a strong team.

“We get another real strong team [in Brandon, here on Friday] which is hopefully a good thing for us because we’re up at that pace right now,” Pierce said. “[If we] bring the same effort, clean up some mistakes and capitalize on some of those chances - and improve our execution - I think you’ve got a good recipe.”

The Wheat Kings

won the Ed Chynoweth Cup last season and are led by the projected first overall pick in the 2017 NHL Draft, Nolan Patrick, who is considered day-to-day with an upper-body injury.

Despite Patrick’s probable absence, the Wheat Kings still have plenty of firepower on both ends of the ice.

Forwards Tanner Kaspick, Ty Lewis, and Stelio Mattheos all have a point-a-game or more so far this season, and defenseman Kale Clague has a whopping 10 points in only four games and was named last week CHL Player of the Week.

“It’s a hockey game that we could have and should have won ... with time and a little more confidence, I think [we’ll] win more of those games. ” Luke Pierce The Ice, however, are unlikely to be intimidated after putting up a good performance against Prince George and demonstrating that they can play an effective physical game.

While on paper the loss to the Cougars may have seemed simply like a continuation of their downward spiral, it was actually a very close game and the outcome was not for lack of trying from the Kootenay side.

“It [was] a tough one to lose, we were in the game from the get-go and I don’t think it was a matter of our work ethic,” said Ice forward Austin Wellsby after the game.

“We did a good job of

pushing the pace early, but throughout the game we just had a few costly turnovers and mishaps in our [defensive zone] that ended up costing us and that’s how we ended up with a loss.

The Ice competed well in the opening frame and came out with a 1-1 tie, thanks to Wellsby’s first goal of the season. He is now twofor-two in games against the Cougars held in Cranbrook. The last time the two teams met here, on January 25, 2015, Wellsby got the game winner on his first ever WHL goal.

Despite the strong start, a powerplay chance for Prince George deflated the Ice in the first half of the second period.

A little over five minutes into the frame, Ryan Pouliot was called for high-sticking and let the Cougars lethal man advantage get a goahead marker. The goal was scored by Jansen Harkins, who buried a perfect feed from Kootenay forward Dylan Stewart who errantly threw the puck right on his opponent’s stick in an attempt to alleviate the danger they were facing.

The Cougars then furthered their lead off an odd-man rush caused by an offensive zone pinch-attempt by Cale Fleury. Brogan O’Brien made no mistake on the shot and left the Ice down a pair at the midway point, with his second goal of the night.

The Ice rallied however, quickly making sure they headed into the break with a tight game on their hands.

With under four minutes left in the period, Pouliot managed to spring Matt Alfaro on a

Vince Loschiavo shoots from his knees during their game against the Cougars on Wednesday. breakaway with a hard cross-ice pass. A trailing Cougars defenseman caused Alfaro to slow up and with Noah Philp flying to the net, he threw it on goal.

While the Cougars goalie got a piece of Alfaro’s shot, the puck fluttered in the air and Philp batted it in perfectly to narrow the score to 3-2. Following the goal, Kootenay continued to buzz with their top players lining up together, but despite a very close chance for Zak Zborosky, the Ice headed into the second down one.

They didn’t come out of the second period unscathed, though.

Kaeden Taphorn, who only recently returned to the lineup after a facial injury, left the game clutching his arm and did not return. “[What happened to

Taphorn] is just real unfortunate circumstance, he’s had shoulder problems and you feel awful for the kid,” coach Luke Pierce said on the rookie winger. “He’s been such a great kid for us and we’ll miss his presence in our lineup. We’ll wait and see a little more, but it doesn’t look good at this point and all we can do is really hope the best for him.”

Two quick calls against Prince George within the first 30 seconds of the third period, gave the Ice a perfect opportunity to get back in the game, but despite strong play from their top unit they couldn’t capitalize. Pierce said it was, unfortunately, the turning point of the evening. “[We had] almost a full two minutes of 5-on-3... that changes the dynamic of the

forced,” he said. “But we have to be mature enough to realize that there were a lot of good things [that we did against the Cougars].”

After Friday’s game, the Ice face the Wheat Kings again in a rare Sunday afternoon game. A two-game series at Western Financial Place should provide an excellent opportunity to stop their Cranbrook losing skid and get their season on track. While it won’t be easy, there is a belief in the Kootenay locker room that they can get wins over the weekend. “[Brandon] is obviously a strong team but we need to build off of the work ethic we had tonight,” Wellsby said. “I think if we play like we did [against the Cougars], we should have more success.”

game and that [was] the difference tonight,” he said. “They didn’t have one first year player in their lineup today, [they’re] a good hockey team and they capitalized on our mistakes and we didn’t [do the same to them].”

Following the Ice’s blown power play opportunity, Harkins put in his second goal of the night. The Cougars leading scorer, Brad Morrison, then sealed their victory with an empty-net goal in the last two minutes.

Despite the disappointing ending, Pierce was encouraged by his team’s play — especially their physicality and desire to compete. “[I] hope they’re getting the message [about making physical sacrifices], that’s why getting a win is so important, so the messages get rein-

College of the Rockies is hosting public policy expert, author and professor Geoffrey Hale on Thursday, November 3 at 7 pm.

The United States of America’s presidential elections generally attract great interest from political scientists as well as curiosity from the public, both within and outside of the US. This has never been truer than with the 2016 election. In his presentation, Dr. Hale addresses the political context for the current election campaign, the economic and social factors underlying the rise of Donald Trump, ongoing partisan and ideological polarization, and shifting trends in public opinion – not only toward the candidates but also the broader political system.

The presentation will also consider structural factors such as the Electoral College and the implications of the Presidential race for Congressional elections which will determine whether the incoming President will have a supportive

Congress or have to negotiate for the passage of legislation on a case-by-case basis.

“By all measures, no one could have foreseen at the start of the American election cycle two years ago that it would be as dramatic as it has turned out to be,” says College of the Rockies instructor, Marcel Dirk.

“Those interested in American politics are sure to gain great insight into this year’s election from Dr. Hale.”

A Quebecer now residing in Alberta, Geoffrey Hale has attended Princeton University and the University of Western Ontario, earning a B.A., M.B.A., and a PhD. He has developed an expertise in public policy as well as Canada-US relations.

Hale has published three books, including So Near Yet So Far: The Public and Hidden Worlds of Canada-US Relations. He currently teaches a course in American politics at the University of Lethbridge.

Dr. Hale’s presentation will be held in room 250 at College of the Rockies’ main campus.

Coming To A Stage Near You

Everything coming up Fitz at the Key City Theatre Submit ted

On

Tuesday, November 15, the Key City Theatre in Cranbrook will present Everything Fitz!

Meet the Fitzgeralds — a family group featuring three-time Canadian Grand Master Fiddle Champions and Ontario Open Step Dance Champions Tom, Kerry and Julie Fitzgerald. They are joined by their parents Pam and Paddy, as well as guitarist and lead vocalist Nate Douglas.

The band presents a program of music and dance which reflects their distinct Canadian culture — namely the rich tradition of Canadian old-time fiddling and Ottawa-Valley step dancing.

This family’s musical journey began early in life as they studied the unique style that evolved with Irish, Scottish and French immigrants.

Over time, they have developed their art form to include various styles of fiddle music including Celtic, jazz, bluegrass,

French-Canadian, and pop. They have also explored other forms of dance including tap and Irish. The siblings continue to push boundaries by fusing traditional and modern styles of fiddle and dance to create their own unique sound and style. Their creativity and passion for experimentation has led them to compose original tunes and arrangements.

At a very young age, the siblings amazed audiences with their precision and sense of musicality. They spent their early years competing at fiddle and step dance competitions across Ontario which provided them with a stage on which to hone their craft. Over the years, they have pursued their goals in music, which has opened the doors to many enriching experiences.

Individually, the musicians in the group have had successful solo careers. Highlights include performances with:

Leahy, Natalie McMaster, Cherish the Ladies, Bowfire, The StepCrew, Ireland’s Sharon Shannon, Carlos Nunez, Solas, Liz Carroll, We Banjo 3, World-Fest, Silver Dollar City, Branson MO. These spirited young performers are noted for their polished performances and provide wholesome, captivating entertainment for a diverse audience. Performing in theatres, on festival stages, at fairs and exhibitions as well as corporate and fund-raising events and outreach programs in schools, Everything Fitz has received glowing reviews from promoters, organizers and fans across Canada and the United States.

Tickets are $35 and $29 for Key City Theatre members. Tickets are available at the Key City Theatre Box Office 250426-7006 and Online at www.keycitytheatre. com

Open Step Dance Champions Tom, Kerry and Julie Fitzgerald, Pam and Paddy Fitzgerald and Nate Douglas take the stage at the Key City Theatre Tuesday, Nov. 15

Come to the Cabaret, Old Chum!

Turner & Adler Productions is proud to present the beautifully dark “Cabaret” on stage at Centre 64 in Kimberley, running November 8-12.

“Cabaret” is set in 1931 Berlin as the Nazis are rising to power.

Based in the nightlife at the seedy Kit Kat Klub, the story revolves around a young American writer and his relationship with an English cabaret performer; and a doomed romance between a German boarding house owner and her elderly Jewish suitor. Overseeing the action is the Master of Ceremonies at the Kit Kat Klub.

Since its opening on Broadway in 1966, “Cabaret” has had seven revivals winning a dozen Tony Awards over the years, and was made into a movie starring Liza Minelli and Joel Grey in 1972. This musical is full of recog-

HALLOWEEN

HALLOWEEN SUPERSTITIONS REVEALED Halloween is steeped in tradition. Halloween season also is a time of year when superstitions take root and add to the spooky and often silly nature of the holiday.

Some Halloween traditions can be traced back to the ancient Celts and their belief that spirits of the deceased were able to wander the earth during the time they called Samhain. Costumes were worn so the living could blend in with ghosts, and treats were laid out to appease the spirits.

Over the years, additional Halloween superstitions have emerged. The origins vary, but the following are some common superstitions to consider as October 31 draws near. · Some believe that bats flying around a house on Halloween either indoors or outside - is a sign that spirits lurk nearby. · Black cats have long been thought to be companions of witches or “familiars,” demonic animals gifted to them. While some think it’s bad luck for a black cat to cross your path, in Ireland, Scotland and England, black cats symbolize good luck. · One Halloween superstition states that if you walk around your home backward three times and then counterclockwise three times before the sun sets on Halloween, you will ward off nearby evil spirits. · Legend has it that you will have good luck if you sleep facing south the night before Halloween. · Apples can help people determine if they will live long

lives. On Halloween night, you have to make an unbroken apple peel, which will estimate how long you will live. The longer the peel is, the longer you’ll live. · Another superstition suggests that if you spot a spider on Halloween, the spirit of a deceased loved one is watching over you. · It is said that no person should lie in a coffin while alive, even for fun. Otherwise, he or she is inviting death. Also, no item of clothing belonging GREMLINS, GHOSTS AND GOBLINS! Come one, come all!

A newer way to tell the Christian story L ast week I wrote a column about the York Mystery Plays, which are performed at the magnificent York Cathedral in England. These mystery plays tell the grand narrative of the Bible with a heavy emphasis on a supposed rebellion of the angels before Creation (which is not actually found in Scripture), in which Lucifer or Satan becomes a constant antagonist to God and humans. There is an uncomfortable focus on Jewish high priests conspiring to get Jesus killed.

It dwells on the details of his brutal suffering on the Cross for the redemption of sinners, and the story ends with a final apocalyptic judgment in which the damned and the saved are separated for all time in either bliss or torment.

I asked whether this

Yme Woensdregt is still the Big Story which Christians believe and tell. Are there alternative versions of the grand Christian Story that are equally (or more) defensible based on biblical sources?

This is still the biblical story which the media tells, fueled by conservative Christian pundits. They claim that it’s the only way to tell the story, and anyone who disagrees with them are wrong, and will

likely be part of that huge group which ends up in hell. They also claim that as long as you believe that Jesus came to save you, you’ll be eternally okay.

I think there’s a different way to tell the story. Recent years have seen the (re)emergence of a different way of telling the story of the Bible which centers on the reign (or kingdom) of God. This image was at the very heart of Jesus’ teaching, and the reign of God is marked by qualities such as justice, healing, and peace.

This way of telling the Christian story is found across the whole spectrum of believers. It is a feature of much progressive thought, but it also shows up among more moderate evangelical believers as well. Noted Baptist ethicist David Gushee, for example,

A cast photo of the York Mystery Plays, courtesy bbc.com co–authored one of the most widely used text books for evangelical seminaries entitled “Kingdom Ethics”.

I was recently perusing a book by Lisa Sharon Harper, “The Very Good Gospel: How Everything Wrong Can Be Made Right”, which tells the Christian story from this kingdom perspective. Harper is a leading progressive evangelical activist, organizer, writer, and speaker. She has been called “a rising star, a portent of a better future for American evangelicalism.”

Her book is a winsome re–telling of the story. She starts with the Hebrew concept of “shalom” — a word we usually translate as “peace”,

but which is more about wholeness and justice. It is a relational peace which promotes reconciliation not only within individuals, but among groups and nations.

Harper draws deeply from this theme of shalom, which is particularly strong in the Hebrew prophets, but which runs through the whole Bible. She tells the story of a God who acts from the very beginning to bring shalom, holistic peace and justice, to every part of creation.

God wants shalom between men and women, shalom for the poor and abused, shalom in family life. God wants shalom across racial lines, between nations, in creation itself. God wants shalom within the tormented human heart, and between humans and God. She tells a story in which God is a God of

life. God brings life out of death. God gives dignity to life. God’s intention is that all creatures flourish within creation.

God is for shalom in all its fullness.

Harper writes that “Shalom is what the Kingdom of God smells like…At its heart, the biblical concept of shalom is about God’s vision for the emphatic goodness of all relationships.”

How does this compare or contrast with the story told by the York Mystery Plays?

The story told at York is an updated version of a medieval Catholic vision of a personal salvation Gospel. It focuses on human beings rebelling against God and the threatened punishment of eternal damnation.

Jesus comes to save individuals from that eternal punishment, and his death on the Cross is the

decisive act in salvation.

Creation is the place where this drama of human salvation is played out, but it is not itself redeemed. Humans supposedly leave earth behind for a heavenly residence. Angels and demons play a mysterious and important role. Human choice or divine will determine how the story ends, and where one ends up after death is the main issue in human existence.

Harper’s way of telling the story focuses on all aspects of brokenness in the good world God made. The entirety of salvation history, including God’s covenant with the Jewish people as well as the mission of God incarnate in Jesus Christ, reflects God’s intent to renew creation, including but not limited to human beings.

Jesus’ teachings matter, and not just his death, because his teachings, in continuity with the Law and the Prophets, teach the way of shalom, which is the content of God’s reign. The main point of the Christian Story is not to get individuals saved from eternal damnation, but to get God’s creation restored to the goodness God originally intended.

Ethical concerns, such as justice and peace, are not secondary to the Gospel, but are part of the very content of the Gospel message.

I know which version of the Christian Story makes the most sense to me. What about you?

much to tip at restaurants may vary. Restaurants and pubs often post their Menu outside the entrance of their establishment or on their website. If you are dining in a group of six guests or more, review the fine print as there may a mandatory gratuity added to the bill.

Recommended guidelines will differ if you’re dining a la carte, buffet style or ordering takeout .

In countries where tipping for restaurant service is considered a faux-pas this isn’t necessarily the same for other hospitality staff.

Be sure you know the protocol for tipping hotel employees. I like to tip housekeeping staff daily — leaving it on the pillow or handing it to the housekeeper directly. This ensures the correct individual receives the tip. Remember the services of bellmen,

In countries where tipping for restaurant service is considered a faux-pas this isn’t necessarily the same for other hospitality staff. shuttle drivers, and the Concierge.

I have a two-fold plan when travelling to a foreign country. I arrive with the local currency of the country, ensuring I have a supply of smaller denominations, which is perfect for tipping. Secondly, I include at least a small

hand-full of U.S. one dollar bills. This practise usually covers all the bases. When travelling within Canada I stock up on Loonies and Toonies before leaving home.

In some countries Tour Guides require a University degree, whereas other countries

your Guide may be a student earning their way through school. An exceptional Guide can elevate your experience to remarkable and on the other hand they can also create a ‘lackluster’ experience. When tipping your Tour Guide, know the suggested guidelines, and follow

your heart. Showing your gratitude by including a little extra is always appreciated. If you’ve been thrilled with your Guide and he or she was outstanding at their job, be mindful that grossly over tipping can be misconstrued as a “hand-out.” Find the right balance to acknowledge your Guide; they will feel good and so will you.

Regardless of the size of the tip, the person assisting you or providing a service is a real person. Even if you stumble with an unfamiliar language “Please” and “Thank you” never go out of style, your intentions will be understood and appreciated.

Your Travel Professional at Mountain City Travel will answer your “What’s appropriate to tip questions”. Email travel@mcity.ca or call 250-427-2233. From the Window Seat is written

COMICS Horoscopes

by Jacqueline Bigar

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Others might appear to be unusually agreeable, until you discover that you are on a collision course with an authority figure.

Discuss the issue, and allow the other party to reveal his or her thoughts; otherwise, you’ll hit a dead end. Tonight: Make the most of the moment.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You might have an abnormal amount of work and responsibilities pending. Dive right in, and you will be able to clear out the majority of it today. Reach out to a friend who might offer to pitch in. This person wants you to join him or her as soon as you can! Tonight: Go for something mellow.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You can’t prevent moments of daydreaming from entering your life today. You might be anxious for the weekend to arrive. A relationship also seems to be building in importance. A close loved one appears to be quite serious. Tonight: The only

answer is “yes.”

CANCER (June 21-July 22) If you can work from home, do.

You could see a problem with an associate or a loved one as a power play. You might not be sure whether you want to get into this struggle. Know that the only way to win a power play is not to play. Tonight: How about moving TGIF to your place?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You could be busy sharing news with many different people from all walks of life. You might be too serious for one person, yet not serious enough for someone else. Understand that you won’t be able to please everyone. Do not fight city hall.

Tonight: Embrace the weekend!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You might not be aware of just how possessive you can be when it comes to a particular part of a project that you consider to be “your baby.” Loosen up and get past this attitude, especially if you want to move on and accomplish what you want.

Tonight: Make it your treat.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You could be in the midst of an

emotionally volatile situation and not know it. Your upbeat attitude might prevent you from picking up on what is happening with a difficult person. Understand what is going on behind the scenes. Tonight: Get into the weekend ritual.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You won’t want to be bothered by everything that is going on around you. You seem to be in a mood where you think that living in a closed-off world would make you happy, and you actually might decide to give it a shot. Tonight: Far away from the raving crowd.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Loosen up, and don’t take others so seriously. You will lighten up and have a better time than you might have thought possible.

Reveal more of your caring nature. Use caution with any money offers, as financial decisions are not favored. Tonight: Accept a friend’s invitation.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You have a way about you that opens up many situations, but you could be forced to approach a new problem differently. Re-

fuse to get stuck in antiquated thinking. You might be overwhelmed by what you are hearing. Tonight: On a roll if you are out and about.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Reach out to someone at a distance in order to get a new perspective. Get past self-imposed limitations by speaking to a dynamic thinker who is open, respectful and circumspect in his or her comments. Tonight: Cheer on the weekend by trying a new activity.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Touch base with a dear friend who often adds to the moment; you’ll feel more upbeat as a result. Fatigue could be a factor in the afternoon. Take a power nap. Return a friend’s call. Note how this person is transforming in front of your eyes. Tonight: Throw yourself into the moment.

Dear Annie

by Annie Lane

comments about weight Dear Annie: The holidays are coming, and I’m feeling anxious already. Most of the events with my family will include buffets -- which will also include criticism about what I eat, how much I eat and how much I weigh. I am 5 feet 3 inches tall, and I weigh 115 pounds. My husband’s family members, with the exception of him, are, by medical definition, morbidly obese.

I am careful about what I eat. I exercise and take care of myself. So do my husband and our children. I have never and would never comment on what his family members eat or their weight. Why is it acceptable for them to comment on me? I’ll hear, “You don’t eat enough.” “Is that all you’re taking?” “You’re too skinny.” All comments are said loud enough for all to hear and with a snide tone.

Do I continue to smile and be silent? Is there something I should say in return? This has been going on for 29 years. -- Sad About the Holidays Dear Sad: If one of your in-laws had a genuine worry about your weight and health, there would be a time and a place to talk to you about it, and it definitely wouldn’t be at the family holiday buffet, after a few glasses of wine, in front of every cousin, niece and nephew. It sounds as if they’re speaking more from a place of insecurity than concern.

That said, I doubt they have any idea that their comments are rude. Because thinness is idealized in our society, many people mistakenly think it’s OK to pick on a person for being skinny, even if they would never pick on someone for being heavy.

Talk to your husband about how these comments bother you. Perhaps he can persuade them to cut it out. And if they continue with their remarks anyway, try not to let it eat at you. What matters is that you’re healthy, and that’s something only you and your doctor can determine.

Dear Annie: I totally recognized my daughter’s experience after she gave birth to my grandson in your recent column about postpartum depression. It was heartbreaking.

Your identification of it and your recommendations were spot on, but it concerns me that you did not include medication as an option, as well. Perhaps you quite correctly assumed the therapist would prescribe an appropriate medication, but you missed an opportunity to inform the public that additional help in the form of medication is out there for many.

In my daughter’s case, the proper medication was what finally enabled her to break free and begin the path to regaining her old self and enjoying her son. It took her eight months to realize medication was what she needed. She looks back now and wishes she did not wait so long.

Thank you for bringing attention to the alltoo-common issue of postpartum depression. Too many people write it off as baby blues and don’t seek out help. I’m happy to say my daughter is back to her old self, while still on medication, and my grandson is now 8 years old, the joy of our lives.

After years of poor health, Bob died at age 62 in the Cranbrook Regional Hospital on December 31, 2015.

He was predeceased by his sister Marjorie Gregory.

Bob lived for many years in the lower mainland and enjoyed a career in accounting. In spite of his suffering health Bob could bring smiles to his many friends with his happy stories and big heart.

He is survived by his son Jamie and is greatly missed by his loving Dad & Mom, Bill & Alys Millard. A private memorial service has taken place.

Daina Evon Lacey It is with heavy hearts that the family and friends of Daina Evon Lacey announce the passing of our beautiful daughter, mother, sister, partner and friend.

At the age of 43, Daina suffered a sudden heart attack in her home and was rushed to Kelowna General Hospital where she eventually passed away on Sunday evening surrounded by her closest loved ones.

She is survived by her Daughter Jessica (Liam, Grayson) Lacey, her Son Michael Buck, her Mother Debra (Ron) Omelusik, her Father Wayne (Darlene) Lacey, her Brother Robbie (Jacob, Kenzie) Lacey, her Brother Justin (Caine) Lacey, her partner William Fleming, and her most loyal companion, Snickers.

Family and friends are welcomed to gather together with us to celebrate her life at Cherry Creek Estates on Saturday, October 29th at 1:30pm.

She was a ray of sunshine within the hearts of every person who had the privilege to know her and continuously spoke of the pride she had in her children. She will forever be missed, remembered and loved like a circle that never ends.

In lieu of flowers, the family ask those who wish to make donations to send their support to the Inn from the Cold in remembrance of Daina’s passion to help those in need.

Benefits of Hunting in British Columbia F.J. H u r ta k

H

unting in the province of B.C generates $350 million in economic activity annually, according to the provincial government. That figure includes resident and non-resident hunters. As far as non-resident hunters go, there are about 5,000 that come to B.C. annually.

That generates $120 million and employs 2,000 people in the guide outfitting industry. From a resident standpoint on average, there are over 100,000 licenses sold each year, which generates $7.2 million in fees and species permits alone. Fairly recent annual stats showed that in B.C., hunters bought and paid for 40,000 moose tags, 25,000 elk tags, 51,000 whitetail tags, 79,000 mule deer tags and over 18,000 sheep tags.

About 84 per cent of the Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation’s

annual budget is supplied in the form of a portion of provincial surcharges which are applied to both hunting and fishing licenses.

That money is then distributed each year to organizations which conduct habitat restoration, and for initiating conservation efforts for any given species.

If all hunting was banned, as some of the radical organizations out there would certainly like to see, all of that work done by hunter-supported organizations would be lost, and wildlife populations in general would be dramatically affected.

Without hunters and their annual contributions, cash strapped governments would likely never find the necessary monies to put towards the resource itself.

Ducks Unlimited, for example, has completed more than a thousand conservation projects in B.C. over the last four and a half decades.

Hunting is big business in B.C. Mule deer photo courtesy Larry Tooze An impressive figure, to say the least. The B.C.

Wildlife Federation’s members contribute

over 300,000 volunteer hours a year to conservation work alone. East and West Kootenay clubs and organizations donate countless time and money every single year to worthwhile con-

servation projects.They are proud of their efforts and rightly so, because they will, over the long term, put a lot more back into the resource than they ever could conceivably take

It’s difficult for anyone who is reasonable to argue the economic benefits that hunting brings to particularly, the rural areas of B.C. It’s not just licenses and tags of course. Hunters inject large quantities of revenue into the economy, by purchasing rifles and bows, scopes, binoculars, ammunition, trail-cams, food and beverages, and all other outdoor related gear, including 4-by-4s and ATVs. Then there’s the gas tanks to fill, and for the visitors to each management area there are motels, hotels, campgrounds, etc., to pay for, and of course the butcher shops to process our wild game. All of these expenditures have a huge ripple effect in the retail chain, helping to maintain job opportunities for many thousands of people across the province.

Hunters do pay their way, and hunting is of considerable relevance and importance to the economy. Sadly though, there are individuals and groups that disagree with the overall benefits of hunting in general. They seem to get a lot of attention as we often see and hear about them in the mainstream media, and on the internet. While I do respect their right to their opinions, what is usually lacking when they present them, is what they actually contributed to the resource in any given year. Just giving an opinion is not enough in my books.
