Watering restrictions may be extended ANDREA KLASSEN
STAFF REPORTER
andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com
The City of Kamloops is expected to decide today whether to extend the water-restriction period into September. Every year, watering restrictions in Kamloops are put in place from May 1 to Aug. 31, with odd-numbered addresses permitted to water their lawns on odd-numbered days and even-numbered allowed to do so on even-numbered days. However, with Kamloops in a region designated Level 4 drought — the most extreme provincial classification — watering

tional action of suspending angling in streams and rivers throughout the Thompson, Nicola and Okanagan regions due to ongoing low stream flows and warming water temperatures. The city said river levels in the North and South Thompson rivers are reaching historical lows and, in many cases, temperatures are reaching lethal limits for migrating salmon. Firlotte believes most of the voluntary restrictions can be achieved by cutting back on irrigation. The city has also committed to watering 30 per cent less. Go online to kamloopsthisweek.com for updates on the restrictions.

restrictions may be extended. Last week, the city issued a public notice, asking residents and business owners to cut their water usage by 30 per cent. However, a drop in such usage has been slow to come. “There’s not a lot of change over the last few days so far,” said utilities supervisor Mike Firlotte, noting the city is hoping to see a more significant reduction in water flows over the weekend. According to the city, short periods of rain have not been sufficient to recharge aquifers or create lasting effects on local stream flow levels. The province has already taken the addi-
STAFF REPORTER

A 300-pound black bear that had taken “territory” in downtown Kamloops was killed this week, rounding out a busy month for local conservation officers in managing the animals. At about 12:30 p.m. on Wednesday, conservation officers responded to several calls of a black bear in the Pioneer Park area. Jesse Jones, one of the attending conservation officers, said the bear was found close to the walking path between Riverside and Pioneer parks and near several tenters before it was “treed” — which involves yelling to scare the bear up a tree — by Jones and two others. Being a busy downtown park around lunchtime, a nearby bylaw officer helped close off the walking trail and the bear was tranquilized, grounded, taken to a vehicle and assessed, where it was
determined to be a healthy, mature male black bear seen in the area on at least two other occasions. The animal was euthanized, Jones said. “The reason is the public safety risk is way too high with a mature black bear like that,” he said, noting relocating the bruin was not an option. “It’ll come back 100 per cent of the time,” Jones said. “That’s his territory. That’s his spot. That’s where he lives. Their brains are hardwired.” Jones also noted the risk of moving the animal into another bear’s territory, which can create conflict. “What we’re doing is we’re taking a problem bear and, if we were to relocate him, we’re essentially giving someone else the problem and putting someone else at risk.” Jones said the bear is the first to be euthanized this season — which typically runs from April through to late October or early November in the Kamloops area.
Bears are a common sight in Kamloops and they are usually allowed to wander back into the wild, as was the case with this sleepy bruin in Riverside Park in September of 2012. KTW FILE PHOTO
There have been 93 bear calls in the Thompson region. While Jones noted that overall number is quite low compared to other years, calls in August jumped significantly. Sixty-four of those 93 calls to conservation officers were made in August, with 49 in Kamloops alone. “It’s been a hot, dry year,” Jones said. “The natural food sources are, of course, drying up, so to speak.” He said bears are drawn to areas with accessible fruit and garbage and, once they’ve had a taste, they return. Once they have eaten

ice cream, bread or sweet plums, Jones said, “going back to grass is not an option for them.” He said conservation officers try their best to not euthanize bears, noting animals that don’t pose a safety risk are monitored. For example, a threeyear-old black bear caught wandering into the city’s public works yard on Concordia Way the same day the larger bear was killed was relocated. “We have no reason to believe, because we have no previous calls with this bear, that he was getting into garbage or any other trouble,” Jones said. “Hopefully, he’ll stay away.”

Jones said bear-euthanization numbers vary from year to year and he is asking the public to manage attractants before hibernation season. That means: Put away bird feeders, pick ripe fruit from trees, don’t leave fallen fruit on the ground, keep garbage out of sight and reach (preferably in a garage), keep barbecues clean and, for rural residents, keep chickens and livestock inside at night when possible. “If you don’t want bears on your property, you need to manage your attractants.” Those who encounter wildlife, poachers or polluters can call a 24-hour hotline at 1-877-952-7277.

Water Conservation Tips from the ECOSmart Team • Keep a pitcher of drinking water in the refrigerator instead of running the tap • Use washing machines and dishwashers for full loads • Don’t use your toilet as a trash can • Take showers in 5 minutes or less • Check your sprinkler system to make sure it is not watering your house, sidewalk or street • Water deeply but less frequently to create healthier and stronger landscapes (about 1 inch/week for lawns) • Use mulch around plants to reduce evaporation

McLeod says she will focus on general debates ANDREA KLASSEN
STAFF REPORTER
andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com
Is a Conservative candidate’s decision to skip a Canada Post town hall meeting in Kamloops this week “arrogance” or a matter of different priorities? During a campaign launch on Wednesday, Kamloops-ThompsonCariboo NDP candidate Bill Sundhu accused incumbent Conservative MP Cathy McLeod of “hiding” from the public for choosing to miss the meeting set up by the
Canadian Union of Postal Workers and some other community events. McLeod was the only local federal election candidate to not participate in the panel discussion on mail delivery. She also declined to attend an earlier event held by Fair Vote Canada and Kamloops 360 on proportional representation. Sundhu said it’s “arrogance” not to attend these types of events, comments he repeated during the town hall meeting.
“She obviously picks and chooses which sections of the community and services are important,” he said. McLeod told KTW she thinks the arrogance comment was “inappropriate” explaining she missed the event in order to keep a prior commitment to meet with ranchers in Lac la Hache. McLeod said voters can still ask her about Canada Post and proportional representation, as well as other topics, at the all-candidates events
she is attending, which include an Oct. 14 debate hosted by KTW, CBC Radio Kamloops and CFJC-TV, a panel discussion with Radio NL and a debate organized by local Rotary clubs . “There’s probably more debate requests than I’ve ever experienced before, so what I’m trying to do is accept a lot of them, but I’m focusing on general debates,” McLeod said, adding she wants to leave time for other campaign activities and visits to communities outside
of Kamloops. Asked why other candidates could make time for the debates she did not attend, McLeod replied: “I guess every campaign has a sched-
ule and priorities.” Sundhu’s remarks come on the heels of a Toronto Star story this week that cites a Conservative party source as claiming

By incorporating, you will be creating a separate legal entity which carries with it certain rights and obligations. Issues such as liability protection and tax planning will often be involved in the decision whether or not to incorporate.

SO, YOU’VE MADE THE DECISION. WHAT NEXT? It’s important to set up your corporation correctly from the outset, ensuring less hassle and administrative cost in future operations. This will involve selecting and reserving a name for the corporation, organizing the appropriate corporate structure, appointing directors and officers and issuing shares.

CAMPAIGN FORUM CALLS FOR OUSTER OF CONSERVATIVES ANDREA KLASSEN
STAFF REPORTER
andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com
A town hall meeting Wednesday night on the future of mail delivery didn’t appear to attract fans of community mailboxes. In front of about 80 people, three of the four candidates for MP in the Kamloops-ThompsonCariboo riding, as well as local and national presidents of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers, outlined why they are opposed to the end of doorto-door urban mail delivery. Communities in the eastern half of the country are already making the transition to community mailboxes. Door-to-door delivery in Kamloops is expected to end some time next year. Green candidate Matt Greenwood, Liberal candidate Steve Powrie and NDP candidate Bill Sundhu all said they believe the move is a mistake, noting their parties are interested in finding ways to keep home delivery in place, should they be elected on Oct. 19. Conservative candidate and incumbent MP
Cathy McLeod did not attend the meeting. Greenwood said he believes the move is part of a larger Conservative plan to privatize mail service in Canada and urged the audience to vote the party out of office. “If you don’t want it to happen, you had better do everything you can to make sure they don’t win again,” he said. Powrie said the Liberals want to create a “modernized plan” for Canada Post, which includes home delivery, and said cuts to the service are a “reflection of a much larger problem” — that Prime Minister Stephen Harper doesn’t have the same priorities as voters. Sundhu said the NDP will reverse the decision on door-to-door delivery, arguing mail carriers have an important connection to the community. “It’s about what binds us in this very big, sparse land,” he said. Canadian Union of Postal Workers national president Mike Palecek, who also spoke at the forum, urged the audience to “run the Tories out of Kamloops” in order to save home delivery.

said. “General manager.” He was not Ray Wilson. Ray Wilson does not exist. He was Paul Pearson, a notorious convicted fraudster. After explaining how Kamloops Auto Auctions would work and what it would offer to local car buyers, Pearson, as Wilson, gave KTW his cellphone number — the same
number posted online and in flyers as the contact for the business. “And it’s Ray,” he reiterated. Moments later, a truck pulled into the Kamloops Auto Auctions lot and the driver rolled down his window. “How’s it going, Paul?” the driver yelled out. “Pretty good,” Pearson, as Wilson,

shouted back. *** As Wilson, Pearson explained to KTW that the new business he was involved with would fill a void in the local vehicle-sales market. Kamloops Auto Auctions is owned by two women — Kelly Selman and Amy Luccianio — who Pearson, as Wilson, described as long-time family friends. They are, in fact, Pearson’s daughters. In a phone interview later, Pearson, as himself, said he was the vice-president of marketing of Kamloops Auto Auctions. When asked if he thought his involvement, given his criminal past, could hinder the business, he minimized it, at one point saying he was not involved in any way. “There’s no concern at all,” he said. “The company is registered to Kelly Selman and Amy Luccianio. “I just put a little help in with my expertise. I’m just down assisting them, helping them out to get set up.” Pearson then handed the phone to Luciannio. “I just want to make sure there’s no affilia-

tion with who you were talking to,” she said. Luciannio was then asked why her father had, moments earlier, described himself as the vice-president. “He is the marketing manager, who works with Ray,” she replied, apparently referencing alter-ego Ray Wilson. Again, Ray Wilson does not exist. *** When KTW confronted Pearson about his use of the name Ray Wilson, things got even more confusing. “Ray is my cousin,” he said initially. “He works here. We get mixed up a lot. Both heavy-set, both have goatees.” On Tuesday afternoon, KTW conducted the Ray Wilson interview with Pearson
BUSING

at Kamloops Auto Auctions. Less than an hour later, a KTW photographer showed up to take pictures. Pearson claimed that in the 45 minutes between the interview and the photos, Wilson had left the office and he had arrived, sitting in the same chair with the same paperwork wearing the same clothes as his cousin. It was Pearson who was photographed, he said, but Wilson who was interviewed. In fact, they were the same person. Pearson then became confused in his story, at various times stating the photographer had taken his picture or taken that of Wilson. Pearson got into his vehicle and left
Kamloops Auto Auctions when the KTW photographer began taking pictures. *** Kamloops Auto Auctions is slated to hold its first sales event tomorrow, but that may not happen.

shows he had organized. In its short life, Kamloops Auto Auctions has also been in trouble with the City of Kamloops. Approval of its business licence was delayed this week because of illegal signage, KTW has learned. The licence was granted late in the day Wednesday. *** Pearson eventually came clean, admitting to KTW that he had been untruthful about his name. He said something “smelled funny” and he decided to lie. “When you came in and you looked around a little, there was something that went on there,” he said. “I just didn’t feel comfortable. It was a gut feeling. “I get a gut feeling sometimes.” Pearson said Wilson is not a real person. “Well, my middle name is Ray,” he said. “And, I just said Wilson.” Pearson said he didn’t want his tarnished reputation to impact his daughters’ business. Rather, he wanted to put his daughters in touch with members of the Kamloops vehiclesales community. “I’m involved to the point of helping my daughters,” he said. “I’m assisting them and introducing them to these guys.”

There is also a Facebook site belonging to a Paul Pearson of Kamloops, which is linked to a Facebook page he created called Logan Lake 24 HR Bid War, an auction page featuring coins and ivory items. Its last activity was on May 29, with a discussion among members about being blocked from the site and one member posting, “I guess I’m not getting my coins.” In 2002, Pearson was convicted and fined under the Trade Practices Act for deceiving customers of his log-home company. In 2005, Pearson declared bankruptcy. In September 2010, Pearson was sentenced to 20 months of house arrest and ordered to pay $158,000 in restitution after scamming booth exhibitors out of thousands of dollars from phoney trade shows he set up in Red Deer and Calgary. Another 67 fraudrelated charges were withdrawn, as were fraud-related charges laid against Pearson’s wife, Gloria. The offences occurred between 2007 and 2009, when Pearson began advertising trade shows through the Internet. He would then contact businesses by email about their potential interest.

Hung Wong, manager of licensing with the VSABC, told KTW the authority is looking into Kamloops Auto Auctions’ status. “Based on the ads [flyers] we see, they are not compliant,” Wong said. “We have concerns. “We are continuing with our investigation.” Wong said material promoting Kamloops Auto Auctions is asking for consumers to consign their vehicles for auction and states government surplus vehicles will also be available — neither of which can be done unless the business has a motor-dealer licence. Wong said Kamloops Auto Auctions does not have such a licence. He said the Vehicle Sales Authority had spoken to Kamloops Auto Auctions representatives within the last week, noting the company was told it can take from six to eight weeks to process a licence. While a motordealer licence is not required for the resale of vehicles from registered dealers, Wong said dealers using an auction house to sell their vehicles must apply for off-site licences. “We have been trying to get a list of dealers who will be at the [Saturday, Aug. 29] auction,” Wong said. “We haven’t been able to get any yet.” VSABC said it is in the process of taking out ads in newspapers to warn readers about Kamloops Auto Auctions. *** Kamloops Auto Auctions and its Saturday vehicle sales at 755 Fortune Dr. in

THE HOT AND NOT OF THE WEEK Kamloops This Week looks at the stories of the week — the good, the bad and all in-between:
HOT: The decision by KGHM Ajax to cover the entire cost — estimated at $300,000 — of the City of Kamloops’ planned independent review of the company’s mine application, which is expected to be submitted to the BC Environment Assessment Office next month. The decision is hot because it will be controversial, with opponents of the proposed copper and gold mine sure to claim it is dirty money designed to influence opinion. On the other hand, taxpayers nearing the breaking point with various taxes and fees may welcome the injection of private money. NOT: The unfortunate necessity to kill a black bear that had taken to claiming Pioneer Park as its home. It is always sad when a beautiful animal has to be put down, and conservation officers exhaust every option before resorting to euthanization, but this bear had simply become too accustomed to life among people — so much so that relocating the bruin was not an option. The good news is this is the only bear killed in the Thompson region this year. With 93 calls logged, that is good work by conservation officers. Do your part in saving wildlife by ensuring your property does not have food or garbage that will attract animals.

HOT: Thirteen-year-old Brennan Ettinger of Westsyde, who set a record in a deadlift competition in Washington state last weekend. The kid lifted 314 pounds to win the event at the Great Northern Bench Press and Deadlift Championships in Olympia. Congratulations, Brennan!

Access becomes an issue
T
he Toronto Star published an article this week, quoting a Conservative party source as saying Conservative candidates across Canada have been told to not attend all-candidates forums and to not talk to the media. The story noted “Star columnist Tim Harper recently crisscrossed Canada, encountering roadblocks when trying to reach Conservative candidates.” It is unclear if Harper made it to Kamloops, but our experience with Conservative candidate and incumbent MP Cathy McLeod would seem to belie the party source who spoke to the Star. Every election has its tales of myriad candidates who avoid the media glare for one reason or another, and of candidates who simply cannot be found — again, for one reason or another. One of the most memorable non-candidates was Amber van Drielen, who the Green party stuck on the ballot in CaribooPrince George in the 2008 federal election. Not only did she never step foot in the riding, van Drielen refused to release a photo or biography of herself, prompting a reporter from the Quesnel Cariboo-Observer to video-record a 660-kilometre drive from the Gold Pan City to Vancouver in search of the mystery candidate. Thus far in the local campaign of 2015, access to all candidates has not been an issue for our newspaper. In fact, contacting McLeod during her time as MP has been

Newsroom
MUSINGS a matter of calling and, at most, awaiting a call back in a few minutes. Granted, McLeod was not at a forum this week created to fight the decision to end urban home mail delivery. She was elsewhere in the riding and, quite frankly, would have served as the lone target in a decidedly partisan forum. Whether McLeod misses more forums than her opponents during the campaign remains to be seen — and there are 52 days left to judge. She will attend a prominent forum — the Oct. 14 debate at Thompson Rivers University organized by KTW, CFJC-TV and CBC Radio — as well as forums on Radio NL and those hosted by Kamloops Rotary clubs. One would think hiding candidates from the media and public forums would backfire, that voters would see such a move for the crassness it embodies — shielding would-be MPs from deviating from the party line or from getting bested in a debate. Then again, the candidate
ghost that was Amber van Drielen back in 2008 did garner more than 2,000 votes. On the national stage, NDP Leader Thomas Mulcair has quite rightly been criticized for backing out of a debate on women’s issues because Prime Minister Stephen Harper will not attend. Mulcair has decided he will not participate in debates that do not include Harper. Such a stand exhibits hubris and disrespect for voters seeking information via the debates. What Mulcair should be doing is attending every debate Harper skips — and reminding viewers as often as possible during those debates that the country’s prime minister has chosen to ignore the concerns of whatever demographic the debates target. Green Leader Elizabeth May, who performed well in the Aug. 6 MacLean’s debate, was bang on this week when challenging Mulcair’s poor decision. “What he is doing is providing cover to Stephen Harper,” May told the Canadian Press. “When Stephen Harper says he won’t show up, that’s shameful and shocking. And the best way to ensure that the leader of the Conservative Party shows up is that the rest of us proceed as we had originally planned. “Call his bluff, he’ll show up.” Or, maybe he won’t. Either way, the leaders who do stand at the podium will have a captive audience to remind voters how little the PM cares about their concerns. editor@kamloopsthisweek.com

YOUR OPINION LETTERS TO THE EDITOR CITY MUST ALSO DO ITS PART Editor: The water table is low and again all of us have to do our part in reducing our water usage — especially outside. Yes, I said “all of us,” which means the City of Kamloops has to do its part, too. Let the grass on city property go yellow, too. On Monday, as I drove along Halston Avenue in the middle of the afternoon, I noticed the city water sprinklers were on along the boulevard area. An RCMP officer also mentioned to me he noticed the sprinklers along the middle road section of Eighth Street are often on outside of normal watering times. So “all of us” means “all of us.” Don’t tell me to conserve water when the city won’t do it. I call this bullying.
Diane Fleming Kamloops
COUNCILLOR’S CONTRARY COMMENTS Editor: I should be used to hypocrisy after weeks of following the scandal involving Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Sen. Mike Duffy scandal. But, when it hits right here at home, it’s like a fresh slap in the face. I’m talking about Coun. Ken Christian’s remarks in your paper
last week regarding the Arrow Transportation sawdust pile overlooking Dallas. He said: “What possibly would be the decision process to put a mountain of sawdust on a silt bluff on the edge of the South Thompson River?” Indeed. Is Christian the same person who
said that the proposed Ajax mine would bring health through wealth to the people of Kamloops, despite the fact it would generate a huge mountain of dust, finer than sawdust, on the silt bluffs overlooking the city of Kamloops? Bronwen Scott Kamloops
STICKERS MAY PROMPT SERIOUS THINKING Editor: The idea of environmental stickers on gas pumps likely wouldn’t do much good if most individuals’ past decisions and temperament are the same as mine. But, I can say that every time I looked at a sticker, I would feel guilty about my legacy with respect to environmental concerns. It’s too late for me to unwind the purchase of a big boat, diesel truck, trailers and ATVs, but if I had it to do over again, I
would have put a lot more thought into my purchases. Many years ago, we purchased a lakefront lot and had plans to build a cabin on it. As it turned out, that did not happen due to circumstances. Today, we enjoy the lake and stay in modest accommodations that fall considerably short of the monstrous houses that have now been constructed in our development. I feel fortunate I got
that right, as our footprint in this respect is closer to what I believe now about the environment. Whether or not people believe in global warming, one just has to look around and it is not hard to determine the world has changed, notwithstanding the fact we have made great strides in technology to minimize the harm to the environment due to our activities and our wants and needs. For the sake of our children and grandchildren, I
hope our view of the environment and the world we share with so many others moves in the right direction, as have so many other issues due to generational change in attitudes. I look forward to younger people moving up into positions of power that can really make meaningful advancements for all of us. I just hope they don’t carry on with old-school ideas and decisions, as many of us have. Dave Brummund Kamloops

SOCIETY BOARD DID APPROVE INVESTMENT Editor: Re: Glen Wideman’s letter in response to KTW’s Aug. 11 story on former city councillor Joe Leong being fined for misusing funds from the Kamloops Heritage Railway Society (KHR): I was a director of the society and I was present when the investment was fully approved by all of directors. I further understand that was stated
as correct by the Crown at Leong’s court proceedings. Despite the fact I was not called as a witness, the Crown found the KHR board of directors did approve the investment; however, this was not reflected in the KHR meeting minutes. This was a constant problem with the society as the minutes were always trimmed before being sent to the city.
Leong and I did many small fundraising events together for KHR. It was me who convinced him some years ago to help the KHR. We both continue to wish the KHR the best in the future operations as it could be a huge asset to the City of Kamloops. Lyle Anderson Kamloops

approached groups opposed to the mine to ask if they would contribute to the review. Milobar said that request was rejected. “They want to continue doing their own thing — and that’s fine,” Milobar said. A number of antiAjax groups, working together as the Coalition of Concerned Community Groups, raised more than $35,000 in an online fundraising drive earlier this summer to hire experts to review the Ajax application. The coalition also attracted a $5,000 donation from KGHM, which it returned. With money in place, Milobar said the city will now wait for KGHM to submit its application to the B.C. Environmental Assessment Office. Koopmans said an end-of-summer submission is still the plan. “We’re doing our best,” he said. “Everyone’s working flat out to get this thing done.”

team met with the city on Wednesday and agreed to pay “whatever the city asks” for in completing the independent review. The city plans to hire SLR Consulting, a company that has no ties to KGHM, to review the various studies and reports on the copper and gold mine’s potential impacts if it is built south of Aberdeen. Estimates have put the cost of the review at $300,000. “There was discussions at council table where some on council felt we should be paying for anywhere from half to none to all, so we felt it was best to let the city reach its decision in terms of what it required — and agreed to respect that,” Koopmans said. Mayor Peter Milobar said at the request of the company, the city has sent a formal letter requesting the full $300,000 cost of the review. At city council’s request, the city also

There might have been visitors at the Smith home, but Gilbert’s had more pressing concerns on the brain — like the birds in the tree just outside the windows of his new home. You might better know Gilbert as Wheels, a young cat who made KTW’s front page in early July after he was mysteriously shot in the leg and turned over to the Kamloops Veterinary Clinic by his Monte Creek family. Veterinarians at the clinic made the decision to amputate the cat’s leg — the damage was too extensive to do anything else — and asked the community for help covering the costs of the surgery and finding Wheels a new home. About 20 families offered to
take him in — and second on the list were Dennis and Shirley Smith. The Smiths were between cats, though Shirley said she had been trying to convince Dennis it was time for a new furry companion. “I’d hint at birthdays and Christmas and whenever,” she said. “And, when I saw him, I said, ‘Oh, can we get him?’” On July 14, the now-threelegged kitty arrived at his new home, where one of the Smith’s grandchildren christen him Gilbert. Though skittish during his first week, he’s since settled into a busy schedule of napping, keeping tabs on the birds and nearby trains, watching TV with Dennis in the evenings and being spoiled by the couple’s grandchildren. Patches of fur that had to be shaved for the operation are growing back in, showing off
the tabby stripes that are usually hidden by his long coat. Both the Smiths said they don’t understand why someone would have shot their new pet. “Being such a mild cat, I can’t understand why it would aggravate anyone enough to do him any harm,” Dennis said. The missing leg doesn’t seem to be an issue. It certainly hasn’t stopped Gilbert from getting onto the table to steal slurps of coffee — but only from Dennis’ mug. “He doesn’t like mine,” Shirley said. “I drink decaf.” When it’s time to be fed, Gilbert will hop from the floor to an armchair to a countertop to supervise as his dinner is dished up. In fact, a little over a month after his arrival in the home, Dennis said there’s really only one problem with Gilbert: “Now, 90 per cent of my day is used up in petting him.”

Broncos have horse-powered offence MARTY HASTINGS
STAFF REPORTER

hey can hit you from every angle. At the halfway point of the B.C. Football Conference (BCFC) season, the Kamloops Broncos have proven to be an offensive juggernaut and the numbers tell the story. The Broncos’ lineup boasts league leaders in touchdowns, passing yards, touchdown passes, rushing yards, receptions and receiving yards. “It’s been a machine so far,” Broncos’ head coach Brad Yamaoka said. “To be balanced like we have been is fantastic. “We have a lot of veteran guys on offence and they know each other very well. That gel you try to get every year, we had it from Day 1.” Kamloops is 3-2 and sits tied for second in the league standings with the Langley Rams and Vancouver Island Raiders heading into a stretch of three straight road games — at the Westshore Rebels in Langford on Saturday, at Langley on Sept. 12 and at the Okanagan Sun in Kelowna on Sept. 20. Only the Sun, with 267 points, have been more productive on offence than the Broncos, who have scored 214 points, attacking opponents through the air and on the ground. Running back Jacob Palmarin is having a career year and he leads the BCFC in rushing yards, with 692 on 64 carries. “Last year, I had a pulled hamstring all year and, watching film, I looked like garbage,” the fourthyear back from Lethbridge said. “The difference this year is we’re more of a family.

came here, the older players were more for themselves than the team.” Palmarin has already eclipsed his 2014 total of 613 yards on the ground and, after reaching the end zone only once last year, he has nine touchdowns this season. The only player in the league who has seen paydirt more often than Palmarin is teammate and B.C. Lions prospect Derek Yachison, who has 10 majors this season — twice the number he had in 2014. “One week, it might be Jake,”

33 passes for 550 yards. The hogs often fly under the radar, but the Broncos’ bench boss did not forget to credit the offensive line for much-improved play this season. “They’ve taken it upon themselves because they wanted to run the ball more last year, but we said, ‘If we’re going to run the ball, you need to block,’ Yamaoka said. “They took that to heart and it’s been the perfect storm, with Jake just doing what he does.” The O-line has offered pass

Yamaoka said. “The next week, it could be Derek or Devin [Csincsa]. “Faisty [offensive co-ordinator Mike Faisthuber] has done a great job of cementing the offence.” Yachison often attracts the media spotlight, but he trails teammate and friend Devin Csincsa in receiving yards after five games. Csincsa leads the league with 610 yards receiving — he had 611 yards after 10 games last season — and Yachison has caught a league-leading

protection to Broncos’ quarterback Stephen Schuweiler, who’s looking to back up a stellar 2014 season with a career year in 2015. Last season, Schuweiler finished the campaign with 2,253 yards passing, 20 touchdowns and 16 interceptions, good for a passer rating of 81.4 per cent. The fifth-year pivot has thrown for 1,510 yards and 15 TDs — both league-leading statistics — through five games this season and, perhaps most importantly, has thrown only three interceptions, bringing his passer rating to 127.1 per cent. Only Josiah Joseph of the Sun has a higher rating (150.6 per cent), but he has thrown 54 times this season, while Schuweiler has 141 passing attempts. The gunslinger’s Achilles heel in seasons past was his tendency to lock onto receivers and throw into coverage. Yamaoka said his QB still struggles on occasion with that problem, but there has been improvement. “We told him at the beginning of the year — you need to lead this team and make smart decisions,” Yamaoka said. “He still locks into certain receivers, but he’s reading defences better and listening to what coach Faisthuber has to say.” Kamloops still has two games remaining against Okanagan, which boasts the stingiest defence in the league, having given up a paltry 26 points in five games. Continuing this offensive pace will be a challenge, one the Broncos are embracing. “It’s perfect so far,” Palmarin said. “If we’re throwing over top, they’re scared of the deep ball and we can run underneath. “I feel like we can get to the Cullen Cup.”

I’ve been in the industry for over 15 years and I’m excited to work for such a great bunch of people and a well respected company like BA Robinson.... I’m looking to reconnect with my existing clients and am excited to be able to meet new ones.
It’s a fast moving, dynamic industry and I’m thrilled to be back in the game! This is what remains of the Barnhartvale house that was being rented by Cory Lien when it burned to the ground on Friday. Kyle Armstrong, a former teammate of Lien’s with the Kamloops Broncos, is spearheading fundraising efforts for Lien and his girlfriend, who will likely be on the hook for thousands of dollars. The couple has two dogs, one of which is still missing and another that was injured in the fire.
‘IT’S A PILE OF ASH’ MARTY HASTINGS
STAFF REPORTER
sports@kamloopsthisweek.com
Cory Lien, a former Kamloops Broncos’ defensive tackle, was working in Fort McMurray when the house he was renting in Barnhartvale burned down on Friday. “We didn’t have renters’ insurance and I think we’re on the hook for everything,” said Lien, whose girlfriend, Janelle Andrews, was also working when the blaze sparked late in the afternoon about five kilometres from Eaglepoint Golf Resort. “We lost everything.” Lien, known to many as Jumbo, said the fire took place outside the boundaries of Kamloops Fire Rescue’s dominion and its cause is
yet to be determined. The couple has two dogs — Jasmine, a six-year-old shepherd cross, and Laura, a two-year-old siberian. Jasmine escaped the fire, but ran away and has not been found. Her coat is white and brown. Laura also managed to get out of the house, but she suffered burns and is being treated by veterinarians. There were about 45 neighbours outside watching the inferno, according to Lien, and some tried to help put it out, but there was nothing they could do. Kyle Armstrong, a former teammate of Lien’s with the Broncos, is trying to raise money to help the couple. “It’s a pile of ash,” said Armstrong, who works with Lien
in Fort McMurray. “They had been waiting four months to get an inspection so they could get insurance,” Armstrong continued. “House-wise, I don’t know how the owners are going to be. And, they’re going to have a huge vet bill. One dog is seeing a specialist at the Coast. She had some bad, crispy skin burns.” The Broncos put out a call for donations when they played Vancouver Island on Saturday at Hillside Stadium. Armstrong and Lien’s co-workers in Fort McMurray are also pitching in. Anyone wishing to help can donate at gofundme. com/7u2kwqh3. Lien is a Strathmore, Alta., product who decided to settle in Kamloops after playing four years with the Broncos.

When September hits, the games matter. But, Thompson Rivers University’s men’s and women’s soccer teams will have one more opportunity to make adjustments as the clubs hit the road this weekend to close out the 2015 Canada West soccer pre-season. The WolfPack women will be in Prince George to play games against the University of Northern British Columbia Timberwolves and the MacEwan University Griffins. The Timberwolves had a similar record to the Pack in 2014, going 1-9-2 over the 12-game regular season slate, while the Griffins were among the league’s best, with a 7-2-3 record. The WolfPack, meanwhile, were 1-101. TRU will play the Timberwolves, their divisional rivals, twice during the regular season. The Griffins, meanwhile, will face the WolfPack just once, when the Edmonton club visits Hillside Stadium in mid-October. Tom McManus’ team has played only one exhibition game so far in 2015, a scoreless draw against the Grande Prairie Regional College Wolves at Hillside Stadium earlier this month. The WolfPack men, meanwhile, will be in Kelowna for an exhibition tournament at UBC-Okanagan. John Antulov’s club will play games

against the University of Saskatchewan Huskies and the Douglas College Royals. The WolfPack defeated the Royals 3-0 in exhibition tournament at Hillside Stadium earlier this month.

the CIS national championship. The Saskatoon-based team is likely to be the WolfPack’s toughest test of the pre-season. TRU is 5-1 in exhibition play, with wins against two Arizona-based clubs, UNBC, Douglas and the Langara College Falcons. Following this weekend’s action, both Kamloops-based clubs will turn their attention to the Canada West regular season. For the first time in school history, they will play markedly different regular season slates — the women will experiment with a new divisional arrangement and will play a 14-game regular season. The men, on the other hand, will play 12 games, under the same arrangement used in 2014. TRU’s men will be the first to play at Hillside Stadium, opening their 2015 regular season schedule against the Trinity Western University Spartans on Sept. 12 and the University of the Fraser Valley Cascades on Sept. 13. The WolfPack women, meanwhile, will play their first six regular season matches on the road. The club opens the season on Sept. 4, in Winnipeg to face the Manitoba Bisons and the Winnipeg Wesmen. The women will play contests against the University of Alberta Pandas, the UNBC Timberwolves, the UFV Cascades and the TWU Spartans before returning home for matches against the University of Victoria Vikes (Sept. 26) and UBC Thunderbirds (Sept. 27).

Cameraman topples Bolt at world championships EDDIE PELLS
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BEIJING — Only when the running stopped and the picture-taking began did Usain Bolt finally meet his match. Bolt blew past Justin Gatlin and everyone else yesterday night in the 200 metres to win his 10th career gold medal at the world championships. What finally upended the 6-foot-5 Jamaican was a multitasking cameraman riding a two-wheeled scooter while videotaping Bolt’s victory lap. The scooter ran over the outcropping of a metal railing bolted to the edge of the track and bobbled off course — then slammed into the back of the fastest two legs on the planet. Bolt’s legs came out from under him and he went down hard and landed on his backside. Then, smooth as silk, he somersaulted backward onto his feet, jogged a few steps, and reached down to make sure his left leg was OK. He was no worse for wear — reporting just a few scrapes — but figured he’d try to make the evening at least a little more interesting. “The rumour I’m trying to start right now is that Justin Gatlin paid him off,’’ Bolt said, while sitting next to Gatlin in the medallists’ news conference. Gatlin’s response: “I want my money back. He didn’t complete the job.’’ Indeed, it may take more than just a motivated opponent to finish off Bolt, who now has five gold med-
als at the Bird’s Nest, including the three he took at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games when he set world records in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m relay. The split-second scare with the scooter provided what Bolt’s season-best 19.55 seconds on the track did not. Namely, drama. This was billed as the second round of the Bolt vs. Gatlin series that produced the champion’s grittiest win four nights earlier. Bolt’s .01-second victory in the 100 came despite a year’s worth of injuries and off-form running that continued all the way through the semifinals. Like most sequels, Part II didn’t live up to the original. Running out of Lane 6, Bolt got off to a good start and worked smoothly into the curve, making up the lag to the runners to his outside and gathering steam as he headed into the turn. Leading at the halfway point, he opened a three-bodylength lead over Gatlin early in the stretch, and the last 50 metres were simply for showing off. Bolt coasted in and still won by .19 seconds. The winner used his thumbs to point at himself as he crossed the finish line and flashed his index finger: He’s No. 1 — just in case anyone had any doubts. “What I really celebrated was, Justin Gatlin said earlier in the week that he was going to bring out something special for the 200 metres,’’ Bolt said. “I
was like, ‘You don’t talk about my 200 metres like that.’’’ Gatlin came into world championships dominating the sprints while Bolt was stuck on the sideline. The American was a favourite in the 100 metres, and Bolt took umbrage to the idea that Gatlin’s stumble over the last 15 metres gave that race away. “Disrespectful,’’ Bolt called that notion. “I came out here and got it done.’’ Once the 200-meter heats began, Bolt started getting stronger and Gatlin, by his own admission, started feeling tired. “I’ve beaten him once before, and I hope to do it again,’’ Gatlin said of a .01-second victory at a meet in Rome in 2013. “He’s such a showman. You’ve got to give it to the guy for staying at the level he stays at. That’s hard to do.’’ Something to think about: Bolt guessed if he’d pushed hard through the line last night, he could have finished in the low 19.3s. He first got there at the 2008 Olympics, where he ran 19.30 to break Michael Johnson’s 12-year-old world record. Bolt has since improved that to 19.19. “But one of my goals is to run under 19 seconds,’’ he said. “So if I want to run that, I have to really push myself next season.’’ For the short term, his goal is to grab another gold in the 4x100m relay tomorrow — then get out of Beijing unscathed.
WHITECAPS WIN VOYAGEURS CUP VANCOUVER — Russell Teibert yearned to play in the Wednesday night’s second leg of the Amway Canadian Championships — and he did not disappoint. The 22-year-old from Niagara Falls, Ont., who has been used mainly as a substitute lately, was named the game’s most valuable player as the Vancouver Whitecaps won their first Voyageurs Cup with a 2-0 victory over the Montreal Impact. The Whitecaps had finished as runner-ups in five of the previous six Canadian championships. “Oh, man, it’s hard to put into
words,’’ said Teibert, who joined the team’s residency program as a teenager in 2008. “I’ve been through too many heartbreaks with this tournament — disappointment for the fans, disappointment for us.” Octavio Rivero and Tim Parker scored as Vancouver took the twogame series 4-2 on aggregate. The Impact had won the Canadian championship the past two years. The two teams played to a 2-2 first-leg draw on Aug. 12 in Montreal. – The Canadian Press

MUG SHOTS
THEFT OF FUEL Two thefts of fuel have taken place on Monday August 17th, east of Kamloops one on the Dallas Drive area and the second from an Excavator near Lafarge Cement plant. A Semi Truck unit was in for repairs at a shop 8100 block of Dallas drive when a theft of 400 litres of diesel fuel occurred. A video surveillance shows a white, lifted, Ford extended cab pickup truck, with a “Tidy Tank” in the back. The surveillance video shows two male, one female and a child all out of the truck while the fuel is being stolen. The quality of the video unfortunately was not clear enough to identify the suspects. It is unknown if these are same thieves that were involved in the first theft but an excavator near the Lafarge property had 250 litres of fuel taken. In the Lafarge theft no vehicle was seen. If you are a contractor, make sure you have a least a locking gas cap and take preventable measure to reduce the chances of becoming a victim. If you have any information on this theft or have seen this vehicle, please contact Crime Stoppers, you will receive a cash reward upon the arrest of the suspects.

THEFT OF JOHN DEER GATOR The early morning of Wednesday August 19th, between 12:40 am and 2:05 am, the Prairie Coast Tractor dealership on the 8000 block of Dallas drive was the victim of a theft. One male was seen on video surveillance trying to cut the east side of the compound fence, then trying to start one of the John Deer (side by side) ”Gator”. The video surveillance has the male on the property for approximately 1 1/2 hours, for whatever reason the alarm system did not contact the
property owners. The suspect spent over 10 minutes trying to open the front gate, once the gate was open the suspect drove the “Gator” out the gate and headed eastbound down Dallas drive. Although the suspect was on the property for a length of time, the suspect worn a motorcycle helmet all the time covering his face and would hide if a vehicle drove by. The picture of the “Gator” is similar to the one that was taken, the vehicle identifications numbers have been
registered with the police. If you saw this suspect or may have noticed the “Gator” driving down Dallas drive or a vehicle parked in an unusual place, please contact Crime Stoppers, only your information will be used never your name.

It is with great sadness that the family announces the passing of Madeline at RIH surrounded by those she loved. Madeline will be lovingly remembered and missed by her husband of over 60 years, Bud, her sons Renwick (Penny), Robert (Heather), step-son Tracy (Sandy), sister Jean (Al), brother Valie (Elsie), sistersin-law Patricia (Lindsay), and Lorraine Senger and her husband Fred Bell, grandchildren, nieces, nephews and a greatgranddaughter. She was predeceased by her parents, three sisters and two brothers. Madeline was a devoted wife and mother whose family was the center of her universe. She was a quiet and private person who asked nothing for herself. She was always thinking of others and continually putting their needs ahead of her own. Born in St. Cyr Lake, Saskatchewan she remained a country girl her whole life. From those roots she learned to be an excellent seamstress, knitter, her cooking skills were legendary, canning everything dad could grow in the garden or pull out of the lake, jams and jellies, there was nothing she couldn’t bake, and it was all outstanding. One of her many joys was visiting family or having them come to visit her and dad. When things would slow down she would sit in their country home and quietly read until the next visitor dropped by. A Funeral Service will be held at 2:00 pm on Saturday, September 12, 2015 at Kamloops Funeral Home, 285 Fortune Drive. Please join the family for a reception following the service. Arrangements entrusted to Kamloops Funeral Home 250-554-2577 Condolences may be emailed to the family from www.kamloopsfuneralhome.com

Leslie Fowler Leslie “Les” Raymond Fowler passed peacefully on the morning of August 24, 2015. Les was in the company of his family, and the nursing staff that had been taking care of him for the past seven and a half years at Overlander Extended Care in Kamloops, B.C. Les succumbed to natural causes as a result of severe brain trauma due to a motor vehicle accident on December 6, 2007. He was 55 years old. Les was born on January 24, 1960, in Red Rock, Ontario to Raymond and Lea Fowler. They had three sons, Michael, Ronald, and the youngest, Les. His brother Ron’s life was also taken at a young age in a motor vehicle accident north of Kamloops, as well as his father who suffered a major attack. Les loved sharing stories of both of them, and passing on the many morals, values, and knowledge that they had helped to instill in him. Les is survived by his mother Lea, brother Michael, wife Jocelyn, and his two sons Raymond and Matthew. Les was dedicated to utilizing his skills, wisdom and kindness in helping others. He spent the majority of his life in Kamloops, B.C. where he worked for a number of local trucking companies, as well as operated his own small businesses. He loved anything on wheels, especially two, and those in the motorcycle and car communities will surely miss his company. We will never forget his deep laugh, ability to brighten a room, and his love for children. A loving father, loyal husband, hard worker, and stand up friend, Les will be missed by all those touched by his presence. There will be a celebration of life on Sunday, August 30, from 3 to 6 PM at the Cottonwood Centre on the North Shore, Kamloops, B.C. The doors are open to anybody who would like to come share stories, view photos, and pay final respect to Les. The family has politely requested that no flowers be given. They would also like to thank Alternatives Funeral and Cremation Services for their help with the arrangements.

Obituaries & In Memoriam In Loving Memory Of Our Son
KYLE AARON WEISS April 25, 2005 - August 30, 2005
Memories flood in, like waves over sand, Remembering times holding your hand. We remember counting your fingers and toes, With perfect rosebud lips, and a cute little nose. We remember your white blond hair, and the slight curve of your cheek, Watching you grow, week after week. We remember your smell, and the blue of your eyes, The softness of your skin, and singing lullabies. We remember holding you close, kissing your head, Watching you sleep soundly, snuggled in your bed. Ten years have passed, but it seems like yesterday, We said goodbye Lil’ One, back into Gods arms, you went to stay. Now you play with angels, In heaven above. We keep all these memories, And treasure them with love. Although you were here just a short while. You live on in our hearts, with a sweet remembered smile.
We love and miss you

MATILDA “TILLIE” OLINECK
CATALINO LAQUINDANUM
1943 - 2015
April 28, 1940 - August 27, 2015
Suddenly on August 25, 2015 Matilda “Tillie” Olineck left us to be in peace with God. She is survived by her children Jeanne and Jackie; her grandchildren Jeremy, Jaimee (Brandon), Liveea and Rahel. She was predeceased by her parents Mike and Rose Lozinski and her partner of many years Terry Zadow. Tillie was born on April 8, 1943 in Yorkton, Saskatchewan to a family of Ukrainian immigrants and grew up on the family farm where she learned Ukrainian language and culture from her Baba. In her teens, the family moved to Regina and she was very proud of the fact that she helped her father build their family home. After graduation from an all girls Catholic School, she married and moved to various cities in what she termed was her “gypsy life”. In 1967, she moved to Kamloops where she put down roots and raised her family. Tillie was an extremely talented artist and could put her hand to nearly anything. She gifted friends and family with many of her beautiful creations, including her “pysanky” - Ukrainian Easter Eggs. As well as an artist, she was an incredible cook and baker. She was always there at her grandchildren’s birthdays and family events with her scrumptious delicacies. A side from her grandchildren and artwork, some of her favourite memories were her trips to Costa Rica and the Oregan Coast, and she had palnned another to Oregan before becoming ill. Although she had settled down in Kamloops, she always had a penchant to travel to Tahiti. We hope you get there in spirit, Mom. Those who knew Tillie will remember her joyful smile. A special thanks to friends who helped her out and to Joan for all her care. Prayer Services will be held on Sunday, August 30, 2015 at 7:00pm and Funeral Services will be held on Monday, August 31, 2015 at a 10:00 am at Holy Trinity Catholic Church, 109 Tranquille Road, Kamloops. Reception to follow.
SHARON JEANETTE MILBRADT Sharon Jeanette Milbradt roared into this world on the 22nd of July 1952 raring to go. She is survived by her daughters Brandi-Ann and Jami-Lee, son-in-law Jeff, and her cherished granddaughters, Mila and Evie, whom she absolutely adored. She is also survived by Jim “Sir James” Milbradt, her devoted and loving husband, High School sweetheart, Harley Davidson riding partner, and love of her life whom she met when smoking cigarettes and rolled up t-shirts were cool. She was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother, who somehow managed to find the time to have a career as a nurse at Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops and give what little time she had left to pursue her passions of gardening, cooking, art, writing, volunteering, and helping whomever needed a hand. She was always quick to give of herself without complaint. She loved to laugh, spend time with her family, and to continually learn and improve herself in any way she could. She was interested and thirsty for life and experience. This passion manifested itself best in her new life as a “Harley Girl”, riding the great highways of North America on her Harley Davidson with her lifelong riding partner Sir James. Sharon was always concerned with the homeless, donating turkeys, clothing, and money every holiday (and in-between). She never left the house without a few bucks tucked into her back pocket if she ran into someone who needed it, even if she didn’t have those few bucks to spare. She often bought new shoes for the homeless around Kamloops, even tracking these men and women down. She rang the Salvation Army bells despite suffering discomfort from her arthritic hands and her replaced hips. She couldn’t help herself as she always felt lucky for everything she had. Instead of flowers, Sharon would hope that you will do an unexpected and unsolicited act of kindness for someone in need or make a donation in her memory to the New Life Mission at 181 West Victoria Street in Kamloops, BC V2C 1A5. Ride on Sharon, you will be missed.

Oh Great Spirit ... Oh Great Spirit Whose voice I hear in the wind Whose breath gives life to the world Hear me I come to you as one of your many children I am small and weak I need your strength and your wisdom May I walk in beauty Make my eyes ever behold the red and purple sunset Make my hands respect the things that you have made And my ears sharp to hear your voice Make me wise, So that I may know the things you have taught your children The lessons you have hidden in every leaf and rock Make me strong, Not to be superior to my brothers But to be able to fight my greatest enemy — myself Make me ever ready to come to you with straight eyes So that when life fades, as the fading sunset My spirit will come to you without shame.

FAITH
Why? Because God loves us, of course
I
t’s less than six months until Christmas. But who wants to think about Christmas in the middle of the dog days of summer? By “Christmas”, I don’t mean presents, Santa Claus, ad nauseum commercials flogging questionable junk, or over-the-top light decorations. I mean the birth of Jesus Christ. The Incarnation is arguably the most incredible thing which has ever happened in the history of humanity. God — becoming a man, actually a baby first. Impossible? Ridiculous? A fanciful fable? Let’s set aside the issue as to whether this is even possible for now, and look at a more important question. Why? Why would
NARYAN MITRA
You Gotta Have
FAITH
God choose to do such a thing in the first place? Perhaps the words of Jesus himself give the best explanation. Jesus was debating with the leading Jews in the synagogue in Capernum, who were challenging him to prove who he really was. He answered them, “For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of Him who sent me . . . For this is the will of my Father, that
every one who beholds the Son, and believes in Him, may have eternal life, and I myself will raise him up on the last day.” That pretty much sums up his mission. God wants to save all of us, and the way He chose to do it was to send a personal incarnation and ask, not compel, people to believe in the Son whom He sent. But, it still doesn’t answer the question of why was it necessary for God to become a man in order to accomplish this goal of salvation of humanity. Why not just inspire an ordinary person to say wonderful things and perform miracles to convince people to repent and believe in God? There are many faiths who believe that Jesus was an inspiring preacher and great moral teacher, but they don’t believe he was
God in the flesh. That is what separates Christianity from all other faiths. And, “faith” is an appropriate term, because believing that Jesus is God Incarnate is an article of faith, and one that is very hard to grasp. Many wise thinkers have wrestled with this question over the ages. One of them was Thomas Aquinas, a 13th century Dominican friar, and arguably the most influential Catholic philosopher and theologian of the Medieval Age. To this day, Catholic priests in training are required to study his texts. He is regarded as a “Doctor of the Church”, an honour bestowed on only a few individuals throughout history who have made outstanding contributions to our understanding of the nature of God.
Aquinas’ Compendium of Theology is the last book he wrote prior to his death in 1274. Although it was unfinished, it was so erudite and full of wisdom that it was published anyway. In Compendium, Aquinas argues that the fall of man was due to the original sin of Adam and Eve. It was a fall from grace that neither Adam, nor any his earthly descendants, could remedy through their own efforts. Indeed, scripture asserts, “All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.” The holiness of God requires that not even a hint of evil or sin be permitted in his presence. Yet, because He loves his creation, he wanted to bestow everlasting life, in heaven, on all who would believe in Him. How could this be done?
Aquinas writes that no mere man could effect the remedy of restoring all men to grace, nor could an angel. “Nothing remains, therefore, but that such restoration could be effected by God alone.” God could have restored mankind solely by His own will and power, but that would have violated divine justice, for “justice demands satisfaction for sin.” The only solution, therefore, was for God to become man “so that one and the same person would be able both to restore man and to offer satisfaction.” So, there’s the why, but how could the Incarnation possibly happen? When my son was three years old, he saw two men arm wrestling on TV, and challenged me to a duel of strength. Of course, I supplied
just enough resistance to give him a realistic test of the strength in his little arm, and let him “win”, all the while professing my great amazement at his superior muscles. I think most of us have done something like this with a little one, purposely limiting our true strength and presence. Why? Because we love them, and take delight in their joy. I think the Incarnation is like that. All things are possible with God, so He self-limited his true strength and power in the person of Jesus. Why? Because He loves us all and delights in our salvation. KTW welcomes submissions to its Faith page.

TRINITY WESTERN WANTS ACCREDITATION THE CANADIAN PRESS
VANCOUVER — A B.C. Supreme Court judge has reserved a decision in the battle between the province’s law society and a Christian university. Trinity Western University wants the court to overturn a decision by the Law Society of B.C., denying accreditation to graduates of its proposed law school. A three-day judicial review wrapped up on Wednesday. At issue is the university’s requirement that all students sign a socalled community covenant, which prohibits sex outside of marriage between a man and a woman. The university defends the covenant, arguing it is protected under
charter provisions covering freedom of religion. However, the law society says signing the document violates samesex equality laws. An Ontario court has upheld the Law Society of Upper Canada’s refusal to accredit Trinity’s yet-to-open law school, while a Nova Scotia judge has ruled in favour of the university. However, the Nova Scotia Barristers’ Society is appealing the decision, with a hearing scheduled for next April. TWU’s lawyer argued earlier this week that its covenant is central to the private university’s identity as an evangelical Christian educational institution. The university enrols about 4,000 students annually.

MEMORABILIA UP FOR BIDS THE CANADIAN PRESS
OTTAWA — Looking for a copy of Wayne Gretzky’s professional hockey draft questionnaire? The federal government has one for sale. A crop of hockey memorabilia is up for bids on the government’s surplus website, a space where millions of dollars worth of seized goods — and stuff the government no longer needs — is
auctioned to the general public. In the last few weeks, autographed pucks and pictures of hockey greats have appeared on the website, including five items still open for bidding among the approximately 100 autographed pieces of National Hockey League memorabilia the government has auctioned off this year. Gretzky’s NHL draft
questionnaire — a copy of which sold on the NHL auctions website this year for $26 — is in a binder of hockey goods that carries a minimum bid of $1,300. It includes autographed photos of Lanny McDonald, Harry Sinden, Borje Salming, Red Kelly, Grant Fuhr, Jari Kurri and Doug Gilmour. Check out the auction online at gcsurplus.ca.

reaction to that audit. The messages released through the Access to
Information Act suggest that some writers felt that oversight of parliamentarians’ spending should be an election issue. One writer sought a detailed accounting of all MP spending, while others applied for an appointment to one of the 22 vacant Senate seats.
After auditor general Michael Ferguson’s critical review of Senate spending, Conservatives, NDP and Liberals all supported the idea of giving him access to MP expense accounts. However, the issue has taken a back seat on the campaign trail amid a focus on the Mike Duffy trial.
OIL JUMPS, MARKETS SOAR THE CANADIAN PRESS
INVESTORS BUY UP BEATEN DOWN STOCKS
TORONTO — North American markets soared for a second consecutive session as investors continued to buy up stocks beaten down in a six-day selloff that started over a week ago amid fears of a major slowdown in China’s economy. In Toronto, the S&P/ TSX composite index — up more than 460 points in the afternoon
— closed 385.08 points or 2.88 per cent higher at 13,766.67. The resource-heavy Toronto index was boosted by a big jump in commodity prices that included a 10 per cent jump in the price of benchmark oil as the October contract shot up $3.96 to US$42.56 a barrel. The Canadian dollar, which also shares a
strong correlation with the price of oil, was up 0.59 of a cent at 75.65 cents U.S. In New York, the Dow Jones industrial average was up 369.26 points at 16,654.77 after a more than 600-point jump Wednesday, its third-biggest point gain of all time and largest since October 2008. The broader S&P 500 index rose 47.15 points
to 1,987.66 while the Nasdaq jumped 115.17 points to 4,812.71. Elsewhere in commodities, October natural gas lost four cents to US$2.66 per thousand cubic feet, while copper reversed its slide as the December contract shot up nine cents to US$2.33 a pound. December gold retreated $2 to US$1,122.60 an ounce.

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT
FINDING GOLD IN SHADOWS DALE BASS
STAFF REPORTER
dale@kamloopsthisweek.com
Dana Letourneau acknowledges describing his band as an artrock could be seen a tad pretentious. He doesn’t think so, though. He sees it reflective of the experimental track Gold & Shadow follows as it makes music. “Radiohead is a good comparison,” Letourneau said, “and there’s a band in the U.S., Grizzly Bear, that is a lot like us.” The band is equally off the established grid in sharing its music; it’s upcoming tour, which kicks off on Sept. 9 and includes a show on Sept. 17 in Kamloops, is as likely to book into a church as it is a bar. For the River City gig, Dallas Barnhartvale Baptist Church, 495 Todd Rd., is the chosen venue, where the group will
perform for a largely youth audience. Performing for youth groups provides not only a built-in audience but one that is actually interested in listening to the music, rather than getting a refill at the bar. “There’s an energy with a younger crowd,” Letourneau said. “It’s fun to have people to play for who are energetic.” The idea of performing for youth groups comes from the band’s drummer, Wes Holmes, and help from three churches. While the Nanaimobased band has been writing and performing for six years, it’s just been the last four when it’s been more active. Letourneau said they’re all looking forward to Friday, when their first full-length recording, Torch, is set to release. It has two themes, Letourneau said, one addressing the light
coming into the darkness and is reflected in some of the songs that talk about the struggle between the two concepts,the other evoking the idea of redemptions. The band’s name is also evocative, reflecting the scenery that surrounds them on Vancouver Island. “That is super-influential to us. Our music is a response to that, to the environment we live in.” He writes the songs and, when asked if that comes easily to him, Letourneau said the process he uses is weird. “They just kind of come. You could be doing a menial task like washing dishes and something just comes to you. It feels like you’re documenting something you’ve just found. “The hard work is shaping it and getting it ready to take to the other guys.”

Q: With talk of borrowing money for an arts centre, how much would it cost to install a block of sidewalk? What about a new bridge? A: Kamloops’ proposed performingarts centre, which will be put to a referendum on Nov. 7, comes with an estimated $90-million price tag. Here are a few cost comparisons as provided by the city to give that number a bit of relevance: • One streetlight: $7,000 • One block of sidewalk reconstruction downtown: $85,000 to $250,000 • Bridge (based on other provincial projects): Between $150 million and $400 million David Freeman, City of Kamloops’
assistant director of development and engineering, pointed out, however, it’s impossible to paint all projects with the same brush. Each situation is unique, he said, and comes with its own challenges, barriers and costs. The cost of a sidewalk or walkway, for example, depends on the length, materials used and other factors, such as drainage infrastructure. He pointed out the Todd Road pedestrian walkway — a 1.2-kilometre long asphalt surface — is estimated at $725,000.

ook down — way down. What do you see when you visit businesses, shopping malls, parks, beaches or walking trails? We are often greeted by cigarette butts littering our communities, our pristine forest trails and sandy beaches. We also see butt litter near grassy road sides or slowly trickling down to our water drains. Cigarette butts are ranked as one of Canada’s leading causes of litter. Filters are made of plastic, so they can take up to 15 years to bio-degrade. That means cigarette filters from the 1990s may be hanging around somewhere today. Filters contain 160 toxic chemicals of which 60 can cause cancer and, when they get wet, those toxins can leach into our natural environment.
Our hot, dry summers combined with a forested landscape make us especially vulnerable to forest fires that destroy much of our pristine wilderness and put our communities at risk. Province wide, since Jan. 1, 2015, there have been 279 fires attributed to smoking materials with total losses at almost $2.8 million. Are all fires caused by cigarette butts carelessly flung from a hand? No, but many have been caused by discarded cigarettes. The Barriere fire in 2003 is one example of fire caused by a cigarette — 70 homes and 26,000 hectares of forest were destroyed. It’s concerning some people continue to throw their still glowing cigarettes out of car windows or toss butts on the ground. So, how can we address this and change the way we think and dispose of cigarette butts in a responsible way?
If you are a smoker and you are not ready to quit, the next best thing you can do is be responsible with your butts. There are safer ways to dispose of cigarette butts. You might choose to keep a water-filled container in your car to help sure the burning butt is out. If you are out and about in the forest or on the street, use a small tin container to collect butts. Those small metal mint tins work great. If you are hiking, pack extinguished butts in and out with other garbage. Please take personal responsibility for butts — help prevent forest fires and protect our communities, our environment and our wildlife.

W
ithout the Red Star Line, the likes of Fred Astaire and Irving Berlin may never have inspired our creative world so expansively, former Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir may never stepped onto the world stage and, without Arthur Murray, my Aunt Julie may never have learned to Waltz. These were just a handful of the roughly 60-million migrants who left Germany and Eastern Europe between 1815 and 1940 in the hope of a better life in the New World: North America. The Red Star Line Museum, housed in the former Red Star Line warehouses in Antwerp tells their story with compelling clarity. Some two million of them came from as far east as Dusseldorf, Krakaw and the depths of Russia, regions where famine, wars, natural disasters, discrimination and persecution made life in Europe unbearable. Their passage often involved an arduous train journey — fourth class comprised cramped, wooden benches and little else — to traverse the continent before stepping aboard a Red Star vessel to cross the ocean. The museum incorporates eight thematic areas, including a train compartment, the steamship’s warehouse where potential passengers were subjected to long, disinfecting showers and medical examinations. The company was responsible for the cost of repatriating any emigrants who didn’t make it past the boundaries of Ellis Island, so this process was particularly thorough. One display, the deck of an ocean steamer, reveals that crossing to America was no pleasurable cruise even though voices of emigrants plunge the onlooker

into the prevalent atmosphere of hope, excitement and anticipation. It is the personal items, letters and testimonies of passengers that make some areas especially poignant: Like having to send your nine-year-old daughter back to Antwerp on her own because she had trachoma and was refused entry into the United States. Or, letters home that described Chicago “like Poland but better.” Perhaps most thought provoking is the museum’s ability to put

the immigrant story into a contemporary context as it shares the joys, hardships and heritage of many an American and Canadian family. That relevancy is one reason why Red Line is nominated for the European Museum of the Year this year. For more information, go online to redstarline.be.
Musical Instruments Museum in Brussels
Brussels may be a centre of
European diplomacy, culture and architectural elegance, but its irreverent side is far more fun. Think Tin Tin and his trusted four-legged accomplice Snowy; Pistoir, the city’s symbolic statue of a peeing cherub; and chocolate, the smell of which scents the air with aromatic wafts of sugar. Little surprise then, that, in addition to all the grand cultural destinations and galleries, comes a toy museum, a comic-strip market most Sundays and an extraordinary collection in The Musical Instruments Museum.

Anticipation starts before entering the quirky, five-story building. A former Old England department store once favoured among the city’s most fashionable ladies in the early 1900s, its jaw-dropping, metal and glass art nouveau façade promises something unexpected. Each level explores a different musical genre such as the history of western music, percussion, stringed instruments and so on. Straightforward as this appears, many of the objects on display prove that today’s cornets, strumming and wind instruments have a peculiar ancestry. The displays of aero-phones alone include the Bulgarian Kaba Galda, a Turkish Tulum and a Hungarian Duda; bagpipes are apparently many centuries old — some suggest even to Roman times — and that those played in Scotland is very much a newcomer. Many of the earliest pianos and harpsichords are so decorative and imaginatively engineered — one is shaped like a pyramid — they are intricate works of art. Then, there is the percussion section where you’ll see how Tibetan monks used the bones of their deceased colleagues as musical instruments and how African slit-drums were an original, indigenous form of Twitter. Although there are no English translations to what is seen, never fear — everything is in the language of music: Visitors are provided with infrared audio guides that share how a particular instrument actually sounds and they make the exhibits come to life. For anyone interested in music — children and adults alike — this is a gem of a discovery, as is the building’s rooftop café and its amazing city panoramas. For more information, go online to mim.be.

WORD SCRAMBLE
Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
