However, private property was specifically excluded from the landmark court case and the Supreme Court of Canada did not address the issue. KGHM Ajax learned of the court action by way of a press release issued by the two bands.

In filing a title claim in B.C. Supreme Court to lands owned by KGHM Ajax, the Tk’emlups and Skeetchestn Indian bands have started what may become a precedent-setting court case. The bands this week filed for title to Jacko Lake and the adjacent area south of Aberdeen in the latest move to officially

object to plans by KGHM Ajax to develop the area for its proposed copper and gold mine. The two bands, who are known by the name Stk’emlupsemc of the Secwepemc Nation (SSN), made a Declaration of Title on June 21 at Jacko Lake, which they call Pípsell. The filing of the claim moves SSN to the pre-declaration stage identified in the Tsilhqot’in decision for Title and Rights. The historic Supreme Court of Canada

The owner of the city’s Volkswagen dealership estimates as many as 300 cars he sold may be caught up in deceptive practices by the corporation to conceal diesel emissions. Sales of VW’s diesel-powered cars are at a standstill while it deals with authorities in the United States and Canada. Gasoline-powered cars are unaffected. “Obviously, we found out when everyone else did, on Friday (Sept. 18),” said Kamloops Volkswagen owner Terry Lowe. “We apologize, firstly, on behalf of the corporation. Obviously, we were unaware.” Last Friday, the U.S. government ordered the company to recall half a million cars after the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said VW was using software to cheat on emissions testing. The EPA said Volkswagen used a device programmed to detect when the cars were undergoing official emissions testing. The software device then

turns off the emissions controls during normal driving situations, allowing the cars to emit more than the legal limit of pollutants. Some reports suggested the engines could produce between 10 and 40 times the allowable limit of certain toxic emissions. VW said the issue could affect up to 11-million vehicles worldwide. Across Canada, sales of diesel VWs make up about 20 per cent of the market. Lowe estimated it’s as high as 30 per cent in Kamloops. Based on those numbers, about 300 cars have come out of his Valleyview dealership with the software cheat. “Obviously, the mileage is there for the diesels,” Lowe said. “They’ve got to overcome the emissions issue.” The cars on the road are safe. They will be subject to a recall when Volkswagen comes up with a fix to satisfy authorities. Lowe said his shop has been receiving calls from customers. His staff is telling customers their vehicles are safe to drive and to wait on a fix from the corporation. Lowe was on a conference call this week with other dealers and

was told Volkswagen is working on a solution. Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn has issued an apology, admitting the company had broken the trust of its customers. On Monday, Volkswagen Canada suspended sales of Jetta, Passat and Golf models dating back to 2009. Audi Canada, owned by Volkswagen, said it would stop selling its dieselequipped A3. Volkswagen’s German corporate headquarters has yet to release any information on remedies for owners of the vehicles equipped with the so-called defeat device, but said it had put aside an initial 6.5 billion euros to deal with potential financial penalties related to the scandal. Volkswagen Canada offered no comment on any recall or compensation when asked on Tuesday. Environment Canada said it has opened an investigation into the “suspected violation” involving about 100,000 Volkswagen and Audi four-cylinder diesel cars of the model years 2009 to 2015 sold in Canada. — with files from The Canadian Press

For the past seven years, incumbent MP Cathy McLeod has worked outside the lights in the Conservative government. Like Betty Hinton, her Conservative predecessor in the Kamloops-Thompson-Cariboo riding, McLeod has not been named to cabinet nor been a high-profile member of government. While McLeod said she’s ready for any job the prime minister offers, she’s content to be away from the cameras. From her first days on council in the small town of Pemberton — where she was mayor for a term before moving to Kamloops 1999 — McLeod said she worried less about image and position and more about working to solve problems.

“I’ll take a dig: Lawyers like to talk and nurses like to act,” she said with a laugh, calling nursing a “problem-solving profession.” In the early 1980s, McLeod and another nurse struck out for the West from Ontario in a beat-up Datsun after graduating from the University of Western Ontario. Jobs in health care followed in Vancouver, Kamloops and Pemberton. When she was handpicked by the Conservative party as its candidate to replace Hinton, McLeod was a relative unknown in the city. Her gamily had moved to Kamloops in 1999 to provide more opportunities for her children. After being chosen by the Conservative party, which called a snap election and needed a candidate to replace the retiring Hinton, McLeod joked about her lack of profile in Kamloops.

“Someone said, ‘Cathy McLeod. Cathy Who?’” she acknowledged to reporters and local Conservatives in her first public address. But, if Kamloops voters didn’t know its next MP in 2008, they have had seven years to see her work. Mayor Peter Milobar said he’s non-partisan and ready to work with any of the four candidates running in the federal election campaign. But, he said, McLeod’s work on behalf of city taxpayers obtaining funding has been a success. The tally includes big items — $14 million for the wastewatertreatment plant — smaller sums, such as $50,000 for the Boys and Girls Club to move to the John Todd Community Centre and $150,000 for the Kamloops Curling Club to replace its ice plant.

McLeod likes one-on-one contact From A1

“We’re fortunate in Kamloops that everyone [municipal, provincial, federal elected representatives] seems to get along for the greater good,” Milobar said. “I don’t think we should expect anything different but, talking to colleagues in other parts of the country, that’s not always the case. We’ve been very fortunate here.” A analysis by the Vancouver Sun found more than hard work by Conservative MPs like McLeod may be at work. It found 70 per cent of the funding in a community infrastructure fund went to Conservative ridings in B.C.

As much as she owes her success to the party, McLeod also prides herself on her one-to-one contact with residents of the riding, which includes north to Valemount and 100 Mile House. She learned while in Pemberton, where she ran the health centre, the benefit of meeting and helping people. “I’d taken care of so many families and children and grandparents when they were sick — there was a trust there,” McLeod said. As MP, she has served as parliamentary secretary to several departments in Ottawa. “You take roles you’re given and your

job is to find things you’re passionate about in those roles,” McLeod said. That passion included improving life for young interns hoping to gain experience in the working world. As parliamentary secretary, McLeod headed consultations into unpaid internships. This past summer, the Conservative government created legislation, while seen as inadequate by some, that creates workplace standards and safety protections in federally regulated industries. “I have things I’m proud of that made things better for Canadians,” McLeod said.

Local, national candidate debates continue Kamloops This Week, CFJC-TV and CBC Radio Kamloops have teamed up to host a political forum on Wednesday, Oct. 14, in the Grand Hall at Thompson Rivers University. The debate will take place five days before voters go the polls in the Oct. 19

federal election. All four candidates running in the KamloopsThompson-Cariboo riding have confirmed their attendance. They are Conservative Cathy McLeod, Green Matt Greenwood, Liberal Steve Powrie and New

Democrat Bill Sundhu. The specific time of the forum and details of the format are being finalized. • On Monday, Sept. 28, Harper, Mulcair and Trudeau will participate in a bilingual Munk debate on foreign policy. Locally, the next con-

firmed election forum will be an all-issues debate on Wednesday, Oct. 7, from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m., at the Seniors’ Activity Centre in Brock Mall. Also in the works is a debate on Radio NL, which is set for the morning of Thursday, Oct. 15.

Landmark decision DALE BASS

STAFF REPORTER

dale@kamloopsthisweek.com

There was a time when federal legislation stripped First Nations women of their status and community if they married outside their own band. This week, the T’Kemlups Indian Band (TIB) council made a decision it believes is a first for bands in Canada — it reinstated membership to the women who lost it in the past. Chief Shane Gottfriedson said the Indian Act was a law “that discriminated against our people and most notably our women” and he challenged other bands to follow the TIB lead. Before 1986, women who married men from other bands saw their membership rights transferred to those communities. If they married non-aboriginal men, they lost status and membership. Legislation enacted that year returned status to the women who married non-aboriginals, but did nothing for those whose “entire identity,” Gottfriedson said, transferred to other bands. They may have continued to live in their home community but, without membership, they didn’t qualify for many of the services provided. Some of the women were at the band council meeting as the resolution was approved, he said. “And there were tears of joy. You could see the emotions they had. “They always had a sense of belong-

ing to our community, but we showed leadership in reinstating them,” Gottfriedson said. “We felt we want to do right by our women and, in exercising our powers, for me personally, it made me happy.” One of the women was Muriel Sasakamoose, who married a member of a band in Saskatchewan more than 50 years ago. “I have a card that says I’m Cree and from this nation,” she said of the band her husband belonged to. “And, it is totally not true. I tried to live in Saskatchewan. I made a home there and the people there loved me, but this is my home.” Sasakamoose, one of the women who in 1968 helped form the B.C. Native Women’s Association to fight the federal legislation affecting them, said she raised the issue with the TIB council and one of its councillors, Colleen Mosterd-McLean, did some research and determined memberships could be reinstated. “I told the council I don’t want any uncertainties,” Sasakamoose said. “I told them I was really, really troubled about this, that you guys shouldn’t be having a problem letting us be reinstated.” It’s a relief to her, she added, because she wants to be able to keep her home in her family. “This was a bold move,” she said of the decision by TIB council. “This was a bold decision.”

KGHM: Issues raised larger than Ajax project From A1

We are excited to announce a partnership between Kelowna United FC and the UBC Okanagan Heat to form the UBC Okanagan Junior Heat Soccer Program. With the goal of creating a system to develop the region’s soccer players for high level play, Kelowna United FC and UBC Okanagan will be working together to help young players take their game to the next level. Junior Heat is an academy-based program that will run projects throughout the year to train in 4 to 5 week blocks and is open to boys and girls U11 through U18. Following the training, there will be a tournament or event for the players to test their new skills with. The players will travel and stay as a team for the event. Coaching and Curriculum is directed by Dante Zanatta (National A level coach). The Head Coach for the girls program is Yann Calmets (National B coach and National A candidate), and the head coach for the boys program is Tom Flanagan (National B coach). Any player who is registered with a BC Soccer member club/district can attend evaluations and if selected, register for the academy projects. (i.e. - Kelowna United, or any of the COYSA clubs in the Central Okanagan, and anyone registered with NOYSA/Vernon, SYSA/Shuswap, RYSA/ Revelstoke, KYSA/Kamloops or SOYSA/Penticton clubs). Some exciting upcoming projects include: • Starfire Astroturf Collegiate Showcase (evaluations Sept 27 & Oct 4, 2015) • Portland FC Collegiate Showcase (evaluations Nov 14 & 15, 2015) • Phoenix Desert Cup Showcase (evaluations Nov 14 & 15, 2015) • Western Canada Soccer Showcase (evaluations Feb 13 & 14, 2016) • Whitecaps Adidas Cup (evaluations Feb 20 & 21, 2016)

“It will take time to fully understand the nature of the legal documents and the claims being made in B.C. Supreme Court,” KGHM Ajax external-affairs manager Yves Lacasse told KTW. “KGHM Ajax respects the rule of law, as well as First Nations’ assertion of title, and will continue to consult with area bands as we work through the environmentalassessment process.” The SSN recently approved its own project-assessment process of KGHM Ajax’s application to the B.C. Environmental Assessment Office, the purpose of which the SSN said is to “facilitate informed decision-making by the SSN communities in a manner which is consistent with SSN laws, tradition and customs and assesses project impacts in a way that respects SSN knowledge and perspectives.” Skeetchestn Indian Band Chief Ron Ignace told KTW the bands simply want title to land that is rightfully theirs. He said such a title would establish that the bands have the right to dictate use on its land — including resources. Ignace said the concerns of the bands and their members include environmental impacts of Ajax with respect to Jacko, Goose and Inks lakes, and to the amount of water to be taken from Kamloops Lake. “Those are concerns we have,” he said. “But, it doesn’t have to be categorized as we are opposed to this or in support of this.” The court action, Ignace said, is a step in the process outlining the bands’ concerns. “It’s about our fundamental human rights,” he said. Ignace was asked what would be the result if the court case is ultimately successful. “You’re asking a question that is down the road,” he said. “I don’t want to hypothesize about what is happening down the road.” Shane Gottfriedson, the outgoing Tk’emlups Indian Band chief and recently elected B.C. regional chief of the Assembly of First Nations, said the SSN has never ceded, surrendered or given up any of its lands or interests.

“We have a sacred responsibility to protect and assert jurisdiction over our territory and it is imperative that we stand up and protect our natural resources for the next generations,” Gottfriedson said. “The status quo process of decision-making on natural-resource development has not worked and will never work. “Our leadership has significant concerns on the health and other risks this project would present to not only our members, but our friends in Kamloops and surrounding areas. The current assessment process and KGHM Application does not reflect the impacts and infringements that we have been bringing forward since the very beginning of this process.” Ignace cited what he called a “unilateral process” being used by KGHM Ajax and the province of British Columbia. “We have asked when will the province and KGHM recognize our ownership and jurisdiction on our lands?” Ignace said. “Both have not legitimized themselves on our land respecting our laws and land tenure. Instead they continue on a path using unilateral processes.” Lacasse said the issue involves matters that have been outstanding in B.C. for decades. “The issues being raised are larger than the Ajax project and involve questions of ownership and tenure that extend well past local borders,” he said. Ignace said the proposed Ajax mine project is in an area with an epic story, the Trout Children Story, which also tells of his people’s law, X7ensq’t (the sky and land will turn on you]. “Our law tells us that if we do not show respect in passing or using this area, the land and sky will turn on us,” he said. “Secwepemc law and our title dictates that we are the rightful decision-makers on the use of lands and resources in this area.” In August 2014, the Shuswap Nation Tribal Council called for a moratorium on development of new mines in B.C. following the tailings-pond dam failure at the Mount Polley mine in the Cariboo.

Yes Committee starts campaign DALE BASS

STAFF REPORTER

dale@kamloopsthisweek.com

The first meeting of the marketing committee behind the performing-arts centre/ parkade referendum’s Yes Committee has a few immediate messages it wants to share. First, it came together through the common belief of its members on the benefit the facility would bring — and it’s not a tool of the city that is considering the project. Next, it wants other like-minded people and organizations to get involved as well, particularly those with skills needed by the committee to share its message. And, finally, it wants Kamloopsians to

Niki Remesz and Judy Basso told the group of a recent meeting of Women in Business, where Remesz talked about why she wants the centre built. “We need to confront the complacency,” Basso said. Plans are to get out and speak to service clubs, professional organizations, students and audiences at Sagebush Theatre to build momentum. There are reports a No Committee is preparing to launch its campaign against the proposed $91-million project.

Realtor Brendan Shaw, who called last week’s press conference announcing creation of the committee, told the small group meeting at the Kamloops Symphony Orchestra’s office on Monday the best way to spread their message is to start at the grassroots level with social media, posters, banners, brochures — perhaps even lawn signs — and then ramp up once the Oct. 19 federal election is finished. Shaw said although both Yes and No committees that register through Elections BC qualify for local funding to share their positions before the Nov. 7 referendum,

City cash available for Yes and No groups ANDREA KLASSEN

STAFF REPORTER

The City of Kamloops has cash to offer both sides of the performing-arts centre debate, but there are no takers yet. Recreation, social development and culture manager Barb Berger said the city has $35,000 set aside from last year’s budget surplus for informational campaigns in the lead-up to

the Nov. 7 referendum. The public is being asked to vote on whether to borrow up to $49 million toward construction of a $91-million arts centre and parkade complex at Seymour Street and Fourth Avenue. The centre would include a 1,200-seat main stage theatre and 250-seat black box theatre. Berger said the city is using the money to produce factual information about the campaign and point the public

in its direction. “We’ve just produced a fact brochure and it’s just factual, it’s not a promotional brochure,” she said. “It’s just key facts, information around the design and whatnot, and we will make that pamphlet available to either a Yes or a No campaign.” Some of the budget could also go to Yes or No campaigns, as long as they are registered with Elections BC, Berger said.

Berger said the Yes campaign has not asked the city for money. But, should it do so, the city would be required to set aside the same amount of cash for a dissenting group. A formal campaign against the arts centre has yet to go public. The full cost of the referendum is $160,000, with most of the money spent on polling places, election staff and other voting costs.

FORMAL ‘NO’ CAMPAIGN HAS NOT EMERGED From A1

A formal no campaign against the arts centre also appears to be in the works, but has not yet gone public. KTW checked in with others in the business community about their feelings on the centre and found a mix of support and question marks. Canadian Home Builders’ Association president Matt McCurrach said his group hasn’t yet discussed the arts centre and won’t have an opportunity to do so until a board meeting next month. McCurrach said the group typically doesn’t take a stance on projects unless they directly effect the home-building industry — it stayed mum on the proposed Ajax mine, for example, But, he added, “everything’s open to discussion.” Two downtown developers who spoke to KTW said they are supporting the project. Casey VanDongen of Tri-City Contracting, who wants to build a 12-storey high rise on Victoria Street’s 100 block, said he’s in favour

of the project, but wants to see a residential component worked into the plans — something the city has said would only come after a successful referendum vote. John Thomson of Plainsman Construction, who owns several office buildings throughout the downtown, also said he’s in favour of the project, though he isn’t sure it will pass with the public more and more concerned about government spending and the economy. Thomson believes the 350-stall parkade, which encompasses about $18.5 million of the total cost, is a must for downtown. “As a building owner, that’s the biggest single challenge to filling space downtown. That’s why the vacancy rate is as high as it is,” he said. While its downtown counterpart is already cheering the project on, the North Shore Business Improvement Association has yet to decide if it will weigh in. General manager Steven Puhallo said the board is due to talk about the project at its Oct. 1 meeting and may

take a stance after that. While the project is budgeted at $91 million, voters will be asked on Nov. 7 to approve bor-

rowing up to $49 million, with the remainder of funds coming from gaming and federal gas tax funds the city receives

POLLING IS A NUMBERS GAME

E

very politician and would-be MP or MLA knows, or at least they should, that polling numbers don’t necessarily translate into seats. Polling figures from Nanos Research released this week show the governing Conservatives, Opposition NDP and the Liberals in a virtual dead heat among decided voters, with support ranging between 29 and 31 per cent. But, even if that was the last poll conducted before election day, it wouldn’t necessarily mean Parliament would split exactly down those lines. There is always a huge glut of people who are undecided until the late stages of a campaign — some estimates put it as high as 25 per cent. In a close election race, the number of people who make up their mind just before heading to the polling station is likely far more than politicians or parties would care to see. It would be interesting to know how many people use polling figures to help them cast their vote. Unfortunately, releasing polling data has become a public-relations ploy, especially with all the parties commissioning their own polls at various times. One firm hired by the NDP came back with numbers last week that said Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau was trailing an opponent by 11 points in his own riding. A poll conducted for a national media company with a far larger sample size and different methodology found Trudeau to actually be leading by five points. Political parties hire pollsters to come up with numbers they feel will help them. Without a doubt, if the numbers don’t flatter them, they don’t publicize them. So what do we take from this? Voters can do their homework on local candidates and leave the polls for the parties — and media — to play around with.

Do we really need a balance?

T

he federal election campaign has produced a jumble of conflicting claims about whether Canada has a balanced budget or a deficit, how it was determined and whether it even matters. The definitive word on this came out last week, with the release of the Government of Canada Annual Financial Report, signed off by Auditor General Michael Ferguson. “The government posted a budgetary surplus of $1.9 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015, compared to a budgetary deficit of $5.2 billion in 201314,” the report says. “Revenues increased by $10.7 billion, or 3.9 per cent, from 201314, reflecting increases across all major revenue streams. Program expenses increased by $5.2 billion, reflecting increases in major transfers to persons and other levels of government, offset in part by a decrease in direct program expenses.” The Conservative government’s pre-election budget calculated last year was in deficit and this year would be the first in the black since 2008. Ottawa pundits say this “surprise surplus” was engineered with intentionally pessimistic budget estimates, so Prime Minister Stephen Harper would get a boost right about now. Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau claimed last year’s surplus was partly generated by cuts to Veterans’ Affairs and Aboriginal Affairs. Wrong and wrong. Veterans’ Affairs spending was

TOM OM FLETCHER

Our Man In

VICTORIA up 13 per cent and Aboriginal Affairs spending rose nearly 30 per cent. Trudeau has also insisted Canada is in recession now, which helps his suddenly adopted position that a Liberal government would run deficits for the next three years to build infrastructure. Harper ran the biggest deficits in Canadian history after the 2009 crash, bailing out automakers and building lots of “shovel-ready” infrastructure, as did the U.S. and other countries. The question raised by Trudeau’s plan is whether it’s a good idea to keep doing that without a financial crisis. France, for example, has run operating deficits every year since the early 1970s, although the current socialist government vows to balance the books by 2017. France’s operating debt is now equal to 91 per cent of its gross domestic product. Canada’s net debt-to-GDP ratio is currently around 30 per cent, down from frightening levels in the 1990s before the Jean

Chrétien government finally balanced the budget. (Fun fact: then-finance minister Paul Martin not only cut transfers to provinces, unlike the current government, he inflicted the largest-ever cuts to the CBC. Harper’s CBC cuts were part of government-wide reductions, again due to that 2009 crisis.) NDP Leader Thomas Mulcair has promised to balance the budget every year of his mandate, should he form Canada’s firstever socialist government. He will spend the rest of the campaign trying to reconcile this promise with the grandiose spending plans he has piled up. Meanwhile, in B.C., Finance Minister Mike de Jong may have benefited from Harper’s lowball budget. In his first-quarter update last week, de Jong reported his February budget forecast is on track, with a $277 million surplus. This despite a $300-million bill for forest firefighting, thanks to personal and corporate income tax revenue expected to be $374 million higher than budgeted. B.C. bases its tax revenue figures on federal estimates — and the ones they got early this year were clearly low. Understated or not, this is a nice problem to have. De Jong said at the current pace, B.C. will pay off its accumulated operating debt by 2020. The last time the province was free of operating debt was 1982. The big debt peak came during the NDP 1990s, with another spike from 2009 to 2013 under the B.C. Liberals. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

THE PERFORMING-ARTS CENTRE SWINDLE Editor: The highlights of the business case for the proposed performing-arts centre (PAC) are: economic benefit of more than $11 million, 64 new jobs, spin-off jobs, support to 70-plus community organizations, benefits of new tourists and the centre would build on Kamloops’ reputation as a tourist destination. Of the more than $11 million to be generated in the fifth year, the business case states a $900,000 start-up expense plus $900,000 per year will be paid toward administration and maintenance expenses. This annual expense will be created by “civic allocation” and this tax money will pay for the 64 new jobs, the social benefits and support to the community organizations. When I promoted rock concerts in Edmonton from 1967 to 1971, the events did not bring any tourists to Edmonton, just the bands — Led Zeppelin, The Byrds, Deep Purple, to name a few. No act at the proposed PAC will draw any tourists to Kamloops.

The proposed PAC does not have enough seats to draw headline performers. Salmon Arm and Merritt draw tourists because their events are outdoors. Not only would Kamloops taxpayers be paying the principle and compound interest of a $49-million loan from a private central bank, there will be an additional $900,000 in expenses per year if revenue forecasts are not overstated. This PAC proposal is to be subsidized by $42 million largely from other people’s tax dollars. The City of Kamloops has an exclusive, one-time only opportunity to beat other taxpayers out of their money and must hurry to bite before this offer is gone. Just how ethical is this? As the chairman of the Yes Committee stated: “It is one of the better investments for the arts because it is economically viable with low risk to our community.” All the resources of the city, including a sales office at the proposed site at Seymour

Street and Fourth Avenue, are behind the Yes Committee’s promotion of the PAC. There would be a small number of insiders who could profit greatly from this proposal without having to invest any money as private business would. No business investor would invest in this financial black hole. Kamloops council is deliberately misleading taxpayers by stating there will be $11 million of economic benefit generated by the PAC, including the non-existent tourism attraction, when actually $5.4 million of this $11-million illusion would be taken from Kamloops taxpayers. Please see the PAC business case online at kamloops.ca/arts/pdfs/PAC-BusinessCase. pdf. Pay attention to the projected expenses and revenues stated in the business case. Do not pay attention to, or take the word of, anyone on council. Richard Lodmell Kamloops

WISHING RUDY! RUDY! RUDY! WELL FROM ONTARIO Editor: Re: KTW’s two-part series on the post-hockey life of Rudy Poeschek (‘Triumph and Tragedy,’ Sept. 18/22): I still recall hearing the crowds in Memorial Arena chanting his name — Rudy! Rudy! Rudy! It was almost like the soundtrack from Jaws and you just knew what was going to happen next. Thank you for the wonderful article on a very entertaining and talented hockey player. I would also like to add to your

Rudy Poeschuk stories. As a community-policing/ crime-prevention constable with the Kamloops RCMP, I had the great job of launching the Kamloops Blazers hockey card program for the local detachment in conjunction with a radio station and a credit union. One day when I was in a city arena at a Blazers hockey practice, handing out Blazer hockey cards, a booming voice yelled from the stands, “Hey you!” I turned around to see a huge man coming down from the

KAMLOOPS

bench seats toward me with his hand outstretched and smiling. He introduced himself as Rudy’s dad and wanted to shake my hand and thank me for the hockey-card program. He was very proud of his son’s athletic achievements and the memory of our conversation still makes me smile. A few months later, Santa was at the detachment’s children’s Christmas party, with two elves assisting. You can’t imagine the joy on children’s faces when they real-

ized Rudy was one of Santa’s helpers that year. When the KTW story detailed Rudy’s charity work with children in Florida, readers now know where he started putting smiles on faces — in Kamloops. If you happen to speak with him again, please let him know he still has fans who want to see him succeed. I am wishing Rudy all the best. Thank you for the entertaining article.

A selection of comments on KTW stories, culled online RE: STORY: KAMLOOPS VOLKSWAGEN OWNER ON COMPANY EMISSIONS SCANDAL: ‘OBVIOUSLY, WE WERE UNAWARE’:

“These vehicles were advertised as ‘clean diesels’ with incredible fuel mileage. This was a huge selling feature for us. “Our 2013 Jetta TDI has scads of power, handles well and was fun to drive. Imagine, Kamloops to Edmonton, all over town and return for $100 in fuel. “Now, driving the vehicle represents a moral dilemma: Do we continue to use it knowing the Jetta actually emits between 15 and 40 times the EPA standard for nitrogen oxide, a dangerous chemical linked to asthma and other health problems?

Mounties probe prison death in Kamloops TIM PETRUK

STAFF REPORTER

tim@kamloopsthisweek.com

Police are trying to determine whether foul play was involved in the death of an inmate this week at Kamloops Regional Correctional Centre — the third in-custody death at the prison in the last year. “This happened on Monday night at the Kamloops Regional Correctional Centre,” said Dean Purdy, spokesman for the BCGEU, which represents B.C.’s correctional officers. “This in-custody death is under investigation by both the police and the corrections branch — and it will be a coroner’s investigation, as well.” Purdy said he cannot recall another instance in which a provincial jail recorded three in-custody deaths in such a short span. “Looking back, historically, that is unusually high,” he said. “Any in-custody death is unfortunate for both the family of the inmate, as well as the staff that has to deal with the situation in the jail.” Last November, 20-year-old Dylan Levi Judd was found dead in his cell at KRCC. In January, 52-yearold Daryl Belseck was found dead within the prison’s walls. In November, a coroner’s inquest will look into the circumstances surrounding Judd’s death. Purdy refused to comment on whether Monday’s death was suspicious. “There are rumours floating around about that, but I’m unable to comment on that,” he said. Kamloops Mounties are remaining tight-lipped about the investigation, only confirming they are looking into it. “As the investigation is in its early stages, there’s nothing further to report at this time,” Kamloops RCMP Cpl. Cheryl Bush said.

When Julia Clough died in 2014, she wanted her legacy to be something that made a difference. Clough had been a longtime physiotherapist, a career she chose when she was rejected from medical school in her native England after declaring her at-that-time-unacceptable-for-a-women career goal as an orthopedic surgeon. She had also been a supporter of the Surgical Implant Generation Network (SIGN). The non-profit group works with surgeons in 52 countries to develop implants and learn how to use them to help patients with broken bones. It also distributes

Dr. Bhaskar Raj Pant spoke about orthopedic surgeries performed in a remote area of Nepal during a recent Kiwanis Club of Kamloops meeting.

the implants for free or at a reduced cost to ensure the working poor have an equal opportunity to afford modern treatment. One of those countries is Nepal. Dr. Bhaskar Raj Pant is an orthopedic surgeon there who works with the medical staff in the remote Achham district of the country, one that sees many of its residents break bones due to the mountainous nature of the terrain.

It is this area that benefits from Clough’s legacy and, this week, Pant visited the city — and the Kiwanis Club of Kamloops — to talk about the work being done in Nepal and to thank the members for their support. Clough’s husband Myles is a club member and turned to the group to assist in fundraising to help pay for the trauma service recently introduced to the area, training the doctors needed to

design systems to treat fractures at a low cost, designing instruments and continuing work on what he said is an unrecognized worldwide health challenge — broken bones. “Here in Canada, injuries like this are not seen like a big problem,” Clough said. “You expect to heal and return to your life. There, if a father falls from a tree, he can’t look after his whole family. The whole family suffers.” Pant said he works with doctors who rotate through the region on more than just setting broken bones. They need to learn how to repair softtissue damage, remove tumours, deal with infections, operate to correct deformed limbs “and it all happens through SIGN,” he said.

The community — men, women, boys and girls — is invited to this year’s Take Back The Night tomorrow in Riverside Park. Charlene Eden, executive director of the Kamloops Sexual Assault Counselling Centre, said it has partnered with other agencies in the city to put together an evening focused not only on the right of women to feel safe walking the streets, but the right of everyone to have that sense of security. Eden said the two-hour

event, which starts at the Rotary Bandshell at 5:30 p.m., will include drummers, a silent vigil, activities for children, a free barbecue, speakers and a march through the park rather than through downtown streets. Speakers will include social worker and counsellor Corey Keith, as well as a survivor of abuse. A scene from the Vagina Monologues will also be presented and Dave Coalmine and Michele Botel will provide entertainment.

Unlike many previous walks, this one is open to men, Eden said, because safety needs to involves the whole community. “The issue doesn’t change until it focuses on both sides of the coin,” she said. “We want safety for all.” Although specific suggestions on safety will not be discussed, Eden said people concerned with it can call the agency at 250-372-0179. The agency will also provide workshops on safety to groups and organizations.

NO WORD YET ON RIH LAUNDRY PLANS A decision on the future of the laundry department at Royal Inland Hospital has been delayed. Last November, the Interior Health Authority announced a plan to launch a study to determine if using a private contractor

might be more costeffective for its region. At the time, the Hospital Employees’ Union was advised the possibility existed the 15 full-time equivalent positions in Kamloops could be gone. The IHA has five large and six small

laundry sites under its jurisdiction, employing 175 people. The health authority spends about $10 million a year to operate the service and is faced with the cost of replacing washing machines in the coming years. IHA communica-

tions officer Michaela Swan said no decision has been made yet on contracting out, noting the committee tasked with the review wants more time to continue its study. She said a decision might not be made before November.

Seven Kamloops CA students haved passed the threeday national uniform evaluation (UFE) exam, which was administered by the legacy Chartered Accountants School of Business (CASB) in June. A total of 125 B.C. and Yukon writers have successfully completed the

exam, announced today by the Chartered Professional Accountants of British Columbia and the CPA Western School of Business. They are: David Becker, Sara Burchnall, Reginald Devick, Jeffrey Kent, Abigail Owusu, Cassandra Ritchie and ShiXiong Xue.

In order to become designated, students must complete rigorous course work, pass the UFE and work for 30 months in an approved training office. The national UFE ensures all Canadian chartered accountants meet the same high standards, which are recognized nationally and internationally.

$102K raised for wildfire victims In the wake of raging wildfires, BC Liquor Stores’ customers and employees came together to help support Red Cross relief efforts for victims of the recent Rock Creek and Oliver wildfires to the tune of almost $102,000. To help support South Okanagan residents forced from their homes and starting from nothing following the fires, cus-

tomers made donations of $2 or $5 — or multiples thereof — at checkouts at 196 BC Liquor Stores throughout the province, including locations in Kamloops. The donations, collected from Aug. 18 to Sept. 6, helped the Red Cross provide assistance to victims of the fires to reunite family members, provide necessities such as blankets, food and water and assist victims

with longer-term needs, such as replacing equipment to return to work and helping with rent. BC Liquor Stores’ customers and employees have supported Red Cross disaster relief for humanitarian crises at home and abroad since 2003, when stores first collected donations to support victims affected by catastrophic wildfires burning that summer in the province.

Mentored by journeymen ADAM WILLIAMS

STAFF REPORTER

The Team Up Project began with a simple premise — with employment comes a sense of belonging. A little more than half a year into the initiative — a partnership between the Canadian Home Builders’ Association Central Interior (CHBACI) and Interior Community Services (ICS) — a handful of Kamloops youth have started to find that belonging. “In partnership with the Canadian Home Builders Association, what we wanted to do was create a bridge for youth who are either homeless or at risk of homelessness, to enter the trades and be mentored by journeymen who are part of the Home Builders’ Association,” said ICS chief operating officer Shelly Bonnah. “Just give them an opportunity to, in a trade that they are interested in, enter employment, really good employment, with the mentorship of somebody and have an opportunity they wouldn’t otherwise have.” The CHBA and ICS began discussing the project in January, at a meeting of the HomeFree Collective, a community group dedicated to ending homelessness in Kamloops. Team Up was a creative way to help youth at risk, some of whom were on the verge of aging out of government care. “Our industry likes giving back,” said CHBA president Matt McCurrach. “These young people who are coming out of foster care, it’s not their fault they’re in that situation. They’ve had a bad break in life or maybe a few bad breaks. “All we’re really doing is opening the door, giving them a shot and seeing if they want to make

something of it.” Bonnah said four youth have entered into the program thus far, with a goal of 10 by year’s end. Those involved are still subject to all the normal requirements of having a job — going through an interview process, showing up to work on time, performing as asked. But, the program also gives youth the opportunity to work with employers who understand their backgrounds and may have an increased level of patience, understanding and willingness to work with them. It remains to be seen how many youth will continue to the point of getting their education in a particular trade, Bonnah said. Regardless, Team Up has given a handful of kids the opportunity to secure well-paying jobs and get their foot in the door of a burgeoning industry. “It’s a huge impact, just as far as having people who believed in them, to even get as far as an interview,” Bonnah said. “To have people who believe in them and say, ‘You can do this,’ is often something they’ve never had before in their lives. So we’re getting really positive feedback from the youth, just to have the opportunity.” The program is expanding. Bonnah said representatives from logging and real estate industries have inquired about getting on board. As, too, have home builders not under the umbrella of CHBA. As far as McCurrach is concerned, Team Up is a project that has something for everyone involved. “The bottom line is our industry needs people and people who want to work and grow their careers,” he said. “Hopefully we can build on the little bit of success that we’ve had so far.”

Ministry of Education staff has searched in vain since this summer to locate a backup hard drive containing B.C. and Yukon student information from 1986 to 2009. The computer memory disk contains 3.4-million public school education records, including names, postal codes, grades and personal education numbers. Citizens’ Services Minister Amrik Virk said Tuesday there is no evidence the information has been taken or misused. After a lengthy physical search of a secure warehouse in Victoria turned up nothing, ministry electronic records continue to be searched to determine if the hard drive was moved or destroyed. Virk said there were two unencrypted backup hard drives created in 2011, contrary to ministry information and privacy rules. Information and Privacy Commissioner Elizabeth Denham has been notified and is investigating. “There’s no doubt that a mistake was made, first in how the hard drive was created and, secondly, how it was stored,” Virk said. “This should not have happened.” The drive also has more than 9,000 personal education numbers for children in government care, connected to information such as health and behaviour issues. This sensitive personal information could be connected to names

ELIZABETH DENHAM: Privacy commissioner investigating by comparing the personal education numbers to names through the larger data file. NDP education critic Rob Fleming said Virk is coming forward after several weeks because he doesn’t believe the missing hard drive will be found. “For government to admit this has happened is not good enough,” Fleming said. “They have to tell us how and why it happened and the minister specifically has to say why he failed to do his job.” The government has set up a phone contact centre through Service BC for specific inquiries about the data breach. The centre is open from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays to Fridays, and callers should be prepared to say when they attended public or postsecondary schools in B.C. Call 1-800-663-7867. Details of the information on the missing drive can be viewed online at kamloopsthisweek.com/recordslost.

It took just one half for Danielle Fauteux to dominate the UNBC Timberwolves. The striker scored two goals in the Pack’s 3-0 win. UNBC ATHLETICS PHOTO

PACK’S FAUTEUX: OLDER, WISER, STRONGER ADAM WILLIAMS STAFF REPORTER adam@kamloopsthisweek.com

D

anielle Fauteux very nearly didn’t play for the Thompson Rivers WolfPack this season. In fact, it wasn’t until the morning of training camp, just a day after one of her future teammates suggested she make a return to the soccer pitch, that she broached the subject with head coach Tom McManus. “I didn’t even know she hadn’t finished her five years,” McManus said. The coach was happy, though floored. “I’m going to be honest. I said, ‘Are you serious?’

“I didn’t mean it from the point of view of she wouldn’t be able to fit in. I thought she was maybe just pulling my leg. The morning of training camp, someone having a joke with the coach.” Though Fauteux has had no trouble fitting in with her new teammates, it wouldn’t have been outrageous if she did. After all, at 31, Fauteux is 10 years older than more than half of her teammates. Midfielder Paige Martin is the daughter of a friend. Some club members will be eligible to vote for the first time in this fall’s election. But, if the age difference bothers the Westsyde secondary graduate, she hides it well.

“It doesn’t feel weird to me,” Fauteux said. “I know there are some 17-, 18-yearold girls, so that puts me quite a ways ahead of them, but I feel like I fit in. They’re welcoming — everyone has been very receptive to me being here. “It’s definitely a different perspective, being older than them, but it feels natural.” Though being a part of the team has felt natural, getting used to playing university soccer again has taken some getting used to. After all, it has been seven years since her last match. Fauteux began her post-secondary career in 2002 with the University of Tulsa Golden Hurricane, a season after which she was named the conference’s freshman

of the year. She played two seasons in the Oklahoma city, at one point setting a school record with three hat tricks in a single campaign. She returned to TRU to play another two seasons, hanging up her cleats in 2008. She played nationally and internationally, too, alongside Christine Sinclair in 2000 as a member of Team BC and donning the Maple Leaf for the junior national team. In short, Fauteux is one of the most accomplished women’s soccer players to ever come out of the Tournament Capital. So, there’s plenty she can teach the WolfPack — and not just because of her resume. See WOLFPACK, A24

A deep forward corps might just get a little deeper. Left-winger Mitch Friesen was reassigned by the WHL’s Tri-City Americans Tuesday morning, with the club announcing they had sent the 19-year-old to the Kamloops Storm of the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League. But, according to Storm general manager Barry Dewar, it would be premature to say Friesen will end up in Kamloops. “We haven’t talked directly to Mitch, but we’re trying to find him a place [elsewhere],” Dewar told KTW. The GM said that while the Storm would welcome Friesen back with open arms, they would prefer to see him play at either the junior A or major-junior level. Dewar has reached out to a number of clubs to gauge their interest in the 6-foot-4 forward. In parts of two seasons with the Storm, Friesen tallied 59 points, including 30 goals, in 59 games. He also has 43 points in 41 playoff games in the KIJHL. Friesen, who hails from Surrey, was originally selected by the Kamloops Blazers in the fourth round of the 2011 WHL Bantam Draft.

Oktoberfest set to return

ANNUAL BIKE RACE AND RUN BACK AT HARPER MOUNTAIN

A new section of trail will highlight the sixth annual Oktoberfest Trail Run and Mountain Bike Enduro at Harper Mountain on Oct. 4. “It has changed. It has evolved a little bit over the years,” Harper Mountain’s Lisa Daburger said of the course. “This year, there’s some new single-track uphill climb that we will be incorporating into the event. “It’s beautiful. It’s all nice cross-country trail through the trees. It’s a very nice course.” Oktoberfest has traditionally been a mountain biking event, but will include a cross-country trail run for the second year in 2015. Runners can choose from a five-kilometre or 8.3-kilometre course. There is also a free onekilometre kids run. The bike race is a four-hour KEVIN BOGETTI-SMITH PHOTO

enduro on an eight-kilometre course. Bikers can participate individually or as teams, with the winner completing the most laps of the course in the allotted time frame. “With the format, with the mountain biking event, it’s really quite fun because everyone is hanging around outside, waiting for their teammates to roll around,” Daburger said. Spectators are welcome and will be able to see athletes as they pass by on a section of the course. Food and drink will be available for purchase on site. Oktoberfest started as a fundraiser and all proceeds will go to the Royal Inland Hospital Foundation. The event has raised $11,800 for the organization to date. “We just thought it would be really fun to put on a mountain bike race in the fall — that was it,” Daburger said. “I thought it would be a good idea to make it a fundraiser.

In today’s competitive lending environment, banks are fighting for your business. The result? Many lending institutions are lowering interest rates like never before and are creating specialized niche products. Here are a few examples: 10 year mortgages – Looking for payment security over the long term? The 10 year mortgage is for people who find comfort in stable financial payments and want to limit their risk to potential high interest rates over the next decade. Flex down payment mortgages – Having trouble raising enough money for a down payment? The flex down mortgage offers buyers the chance to use borrowed money to buy a home. The bank expects the borrower to have good credit and good employment to qualify. This type of product may allow you to buy now and stop paying high rents. 5% cash back mortgages – Can’t afford that truck payment plus a mortgage? If you have a down payment, but can’t afford to use it for both bill reduction and buying a home, then the cash back mortgage is an option. You can use the 5% for anything you want – home renovations, pay off bills, add to savings. Purchase plus improvements – Can’t find anything in your price range you like? The purchase plus improvements mortgage allows you to increase your mortgage by up to 20% of your purchase price to renovate your home. This way, you can buy a less expensive home and renovate it the way you want – all included in your mortgage. This program does not cover pools and hot tubs, but roofs, walls, kitchens, bathrooms are fine. Purchase plus improvement mortgages are available at very competitive rates. Equity Mortgages – Has the bank said “no” because of your income, but you have strong equity in your home? There are lenders who will take into account the equity you have built up in your home and lend on that instead of income. 50% (50% ownership) and 65% (35% ownership) loan to value percentages are often acceptable to lenders. The lender will always ask for an appraisal and will expect the borrower to have excellent credit. Whether you are a first-time homebuyer, up for renewal or refinancing, there are many unique and competitive products available on the market today. For more information about qualifying for a mortgage or if you have questions about your specific situation, please call 250 682 6077 or e-mail steve.bucher@migroup.ca or check out my website at www.mortgagebuilder.ca

She’s a health freak and she’s extremely fit,” McManus said. “The other players, particularly the younger ones . . . they’re looking at her and one came up to me and said, ‘Is she 30?’ I said, ‘No, she’s 31.’ “She came in and was brilliant, right from the get go.” Having last played in the Tournament Capital seven years ago, Fauteux said some of her family and friends haven’t yet had the opportunity to watch her play soccer. That will change this weekend as the WolfPack (2-3-1) take on the UBC Thunderbirds (4-1) and the Victoria Vikes (2-21) at Hillside Stadium. Kickoff is 2 p.m. on both Saturday and Sunday. Though Fauteux hasn’t played an entire game yet this season — she’s still nursing a few minor aches and pains — the return to soccer has been exciting. But, even more exciting, she may just be scratching the surface of what she’s able to do in this, her final season of university soccer. “I feel like mentally I’m there, but my body’s not necessarily responding to my requests very well,” Fauteux said at the Pack’s season-opening press conference. “I just need to get some more touches on the ball and get some more game-style fitness, where my feet are moving in different directions than I’m used to. “It’s coming, but I needed a little bit longer to get there.”

NATIONAL SPORTS EVIDENCE BAG IN KANE INCIDENT FOUND ON DOORSTEP BUFFALO — The lawyer for a woman alleging she was sexually assaulted by Chicago Blackhawks forward Patrick Kane said yesterday an empty evidence bag was left in the doorway of the woman’s mother’s home. Thomas Eoannou said the bag at one point contained the rape kit used when the woman reported that she had been assaulted. He said the bag is authentic, labeled with personal identifying information for the woman, details on where the rape kit was used and the initials of the nurses who administered the kit. Erie County District Attorney Frank Sedita did not immediately return a message seeking comment from The Associated Press. /AP

Yankee great Yogi Berra dies at 90 MIKE STEWART

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK — The lovable legend of Yogi Berra — that ain’t ever gonna be over. The Hall of Fame catcher renowned as much for his lovable, linguistically dizzying “Yogi-isms” as his unmatched 10 World Series championships with the New York Yankees, died Tuesday. He was 90. Berra, who filled baseball’s record book as well as Bartlett’s Familiar Quotations, died of natural causes at his home in New Jersey, according to Dave Kaplan, the director of the Yogi Berra Museum. Berra played in more World Series games than any other major leaguer and was a three-time American League Most Valuable Player. For many, though, he was even better known for all those amusing “Yogi-isms.’ “It ain’t over ‘til it’s over’’ is among eight included in Bartlett’s. Short, squat and with a homely mug, Berra was a Yankees great who helped the team reach 14 World Series during his 18 seasons in the Bronx. “While we mourn the loss of our father, grandfather and great-grandfather, we know he is at peace with Mom,’’ Berra’s family said in a statement released by the museum. “We celebrate his remarkable life and are thankful he meant so much to so many. He will truly be missed.’’ Berra served on a gunboat supporting the D-Day invasion in 1944 and played for the Yankees from 1946 to 1963. His teammates included fellow Hall of Famers Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle and Whitey Ford. Lawrence Peter Berra, the son of Italian immigrants, got his nickname while growing up in St.

THURSDAY

Louis. Among his amateur baseball teammates was Jack McGuire, another future big leaguer. “Some of us went to a movie with a yogi in it and afterwards Jack began calling me Yogi. It stuck,’’ Berra told the Saturday Evening Post. He was a fan favourite, especially with children, and the cartoon character Yogi Bear was named after him. Until recent years, he remained a fixture at Yankee Stadium and in the clubhouse, where the likes of Derek Jeter, Joe Torre and others in pinstripes looked up to the diminutive old-timer. In 1956, Berra caught the only perfect game in World Series history and, after the last out, leaped into pitcher Don Larsen’s arms. The famous moment is still often replayed on baseball broadcasts. After his playing days, Berra coached or managed the Yankees, New York Mets and Houston Astros. He led both the Yankees and Mets to pennants. Berra, who played in 15 straight all-star games, never earned more than $65,000 a season. He died on the same date, Sept. 22, as his big league debut 69 years earlier. Growing up, he was anything but a natural. Chunky and slow, Berra was rejected by his hometown St. Louis Cardinals after a tryout in 1943. But, a Yankees scout recognized his potential and signed him. He reached the majors late in the 1946 season and homered in his first at-bat. The next year, he continued to hit well, but his throwing was so erratic he was shifted to the outfield, then benched.

His breakthrough season came in 1948, when he hit .315 with 14 homers and 98 RBIs while improving his fielding. In 1949, he compiled a .989 fielding percentage and did not make an error in the AllStar Game or World Series. “I don’t care who the hitter is,’’ Yankees’ Hall of Fame manager Casey Stengel told the New York Journal-American, “[Berra] knows just how he should be pitched to.’’ Berra was the AL MVP in 1951, 1954 and 1955. He holds World Series records for most hits (71) and games (75). He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1972. “You never think of that when you’re a kid,’’ Berra said. “But, egads, you gotta be somethin’ to get in.’’ Berra was born in St. Louis on May 12, 1925, the son of Pietro, a labourer in a brickyard, and Pauline Berra. He grew up in “The Hill,’’ or Italian district, with three older brothers and a younger sister. Berra was forced to drop out of school in the eighth grade and go to work to help support his family. He took jobs in a coal yard, as a truck driver and in a shoe factory. He continued to play amateur baseball, which brought him to the attention of major league scouts. Berra married his wife, Carmen, in 1949. The couple met in their native St. Louis. Carmen died in 2014. Yogi is survived by their three sons. Carmen once asked Berra where he wanted to be buried — in St. Louis, New York or Montclair. “I don’t know,’’ he said. “Why don’t you surprise me?’’

Remembering you is easy, We do it every day. Missing you is a heartache that never goes away. YOUR LOVING FAMILY

On Thursday, September 17, 2015, Margaret Joan Nicholson (Metcalfe) slipped peacefully from this world to be reunited with her husband Ed. Born November 26, 1931 in Hamilton, ON, Joan dedicated most of her life to raising her family. She was one of the original pioneers (three children in tow) who helped settle the remote northern mining community of Thompson, Manitoba in 1959. Some 30 years later, upon Ed’s retirement, Joan took another leap of faith and moved ‘south’ to North Augusta, Ontario, where she was indoctrinated into the ways of rural gardening! For the next 25 years, along with her devotion to her family, husband, Catholic faith, and-- harvesting produce-Joan and Ed found time to square dance their way across rural Ontario, building many lasting friendships. Her enduring pioneer spirit brought her to Kamloops where she spent the last 4 years of her life closer to her family. Dearly loved mother of Teresa Knight (James) of Cranbrook, BC, Joe Nicholson (Bobbi) of Kamloops, BC, Lorraine Fair (Barry) of Winnipeg, MB, Dian MacKinnon (Drew) of Sooke, BC, Bernadette Nicholson (Duncan) of Thompson, MB. Cherished mother-in-law of Genelle Nicholson of Regina and Lorraine Nicholson of Fort Qu’Appelle, SK. Revered sister of Gerry (Roy) Smith of Ancaster, ON, Dian (Calum) MacNeil of Selkirk, ON, and Ruth Carr of Winnipeg, MB, and sister-in-law of Paula McAvoy, Irene Nicholson, Beryl Nicholson, and Terry Sadler. Adored auntie to her much loved nieces and nephews. Devoted Nanny to twenty-four grandchildren: Graham (Candace) Fair, Sean, Allison (Cory) Aubin and Matthew Fair; Rebecca (Ken) Clara, Cory, Calum, Johanna and Lenny Knight; Brett, Derek, Jordan and Lindsay Nicholson, Bentley, Maggie and Peter MacKinnon; Jeremy (Jenn) Morden, Diana and Danny (Aimee) Nicholson; Riley, Hunter and Sawyer Nicholson; and Tyler (CJ) Bassett and James MacLean and nine great-grandchildren: Lucas, Harrison and Phoenix Nicholson; Cooper Morden; Kadence and Wraiden Clara; Haedyn Fair; and Cassidy and Scottie Bassett. Joan is predeceased by her husband Ed, sons Craig and Chris, brothers Jack and Jimmy, sisterin-law Mary Sadler, brothers-in-law Peter Nicholson, Martin Nicholson and Micko Carr. Joan was a truly amazing woman, a remarkable mother and great teacher of life. She could always be counted on to speak her mind, and her little snippets of wisdom will always remain with us. Through her many physical setbacks, she never lost her sense of humour or her thoughtfulness for others. The primary focus of her prayers, right up until the day she died, was for each one of us. We can take comfort knowing that she’s still got us covered, and that heaven is surely richer ringing with her laughter!

In Loving Memory Of

JOAN NICHOLSON

CALEY CLINTON ANDERSEN November 13, 1985 – September 13, 2015 It is with great sadness that we say goodbye to Caley Clinton Andersen, our son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin, and friend. Born on November 13, 1985 in Kamloops, BC to Tena Andersen and Clint Andersen, Caley was raised in Kamloops until just after he graduated from high school. As a young adult Cale moved to the Lower Mainland, and temporarily lived up north in Fort McMurray, Alberta and other remote locations where he worked as a welder in the oil patch. Wherever he lived, wherever he worked, and wherever he travelled, Cale brought a steady stream of smiles, laughter, and joy to all who came to know him. At work and at play Cale was popular, fun-loving, and always ready to lend a hand to anyone who needed help or support. Cale is lovingly remembered by his parents, Tena and Clint, his second mom, Tracy, second dad Glenn, brother Jamie, stepsiblings Chris, Stephen, Rachelle, grandparents, Gordon LaPlante, Mel and Karen Andersen, Marg Halvorsen and Tom Halvorsen, Dan and Bonnie Watt, Joanne and Norm Tegart, as well as many aunts, uncles, cousins, and a large community of friends and acquaintances. Cale loved his family, cherished each of his friendships, and gave everything he had to every person who was lucky enough to know him. Taken from us far too soon, he has left an indelible mark on everyone he touched, and will live forever in our hearts. A celebration of Cale’s life will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Friday, September 25, 2015 at Riverside Funeral Home, 7410 Hopcott Road, Delta, BC (604.940.1313) In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Cale’s memory to KidSport Kamloops (www.kidsportcanada.ca)

Each Loss ...

In Loving Memory Of

GEORGE ANDRIASHYK

Each loss is very different, The pain is so severe. Will I ever stop missing This one I loved so dear?

August 22, 1929 – September 21, 2015 George was born to George and Anne Andriashyk of Willingdon, Alberta. He leaves behind to cherish his memory, his loving wife Bella, sons Douglas (Edna), Brian (Kathie), grandchildren Kelly, Ashley, Karri (Jason), Stacie (Chris), Hollie (Rick), Bobbie (Mike), great-grandchildren Donnie, Symone, Emily, Jai Lynn, Sarah and Isaac. Bella’s children, Anthony and Trish, their children, Vladimyr and Oksana, Wayne (Carie), Wayne’s children, Stephanie (Steve), Chantelle (Mike) and son Owen.

Good times we had together, The moments that we shared We didn’t have to tell each other How much we really cared.

George was predeceased by his parents George and Anne, brothers, Mike, Steve, Nick, John, Ed, Bill and sister Mary, also nephews Wade, Charles, Eddie, and nieces Vida and Jeanette, granddaughter Jamie. George went on to get an education in accounting, but found accounting was not for him, so he went on to become a mechanic. Over the years as a mechanic, he owned businesses or worked for major automobile dealers. In his younger days, George liked to water ski. After his skiing days were over, he went on to fishing. Together, George and Bella travelled to many different lakes, until one day George decided he wanted a seasonal spot at Sunny Shore Fishing Resort by White Lake where they enjoyed fishing together for 10 plus years and met many wonderful friends, who appointed George Mayor. When George wasn’t fishing, he was busy in the work shop building a china cabinet for his daughterin-law or a cabinet for Bella’s salt and pepper shaker collection. He built many items that the grandchildren loved to receive from little tables to treasure chests. All this got put on hold when George’s health began failing. Now all we have are treasured memories. George was a member for many years of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. He spent many hours cutting grass, fixing water sprinklers, and built several items for the church.

How nice to have had George a part of our lives. The Prayer Service will be held at 7:00 pm on Thursday, September 24, 2015 in the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, 1044 - 8th St, Kamloops. The Funeral Service will be held at 10:00 am on Friday, September 25, 2015 in the Church. After the Graveside Service, a memorial dinner will be held back at the Church. Donations in George’s memory, to the charity of your choice, would be appreciated in lieu of flowers.

I never dreamed you’d go away, Never thought of sorrow. So sure you’d always be here Took for granted each tomorrow. Now my life is all confused Since you went away. You took a part of me And for help I daily pray. But when God sent you to me He never said that you were mine, That I could keep you always – Only borrowed for a time. Now, He’s called you home, I’m sad and I shed tears. Yet I’m glad He loaned you to me And we had these many years.

The family would like to thank all the staff at Ponderosa Lodge and Dr. Howie for Larry’s care over the past year. In lieu of flowers, donations can be sent to the Alzheimer Society British Columbia. www.alzheimerbc.org Condolences may be expressed to the family from www.myalternatives.ca

ALLEN JAMES DUFFUS

Kamloops and District and retired from this position in 1996. Gerry, being the go-getter he was, found it difficult to stay retired so he started a one-man Plumbing business out of their home called A&G Enterprises, which kept him extremely busy until his health issues forced him to close the doors in 2009. While in the nursing homes he kept his humorous demeanour, constantly joking and pulling pranks with the staff, and always keeping his family on their toes wondering what was coming next! Over the year’s, Gerry met many people who soon became his good friends; he was just that kind of man! Family values were important to him and no matter what the circumstances, his wife and children were always well cared for. He provided the family with many fun-packed summers at the lake, horseback riding, snowmobiling, boating and many family road trips. Gerry and Arlene enjoyed extensive traveling throughout parts of BC, AB and the States; there was always another great Casino just around the corner! Gerry was well loved and equally as loving to those close to him. The family would like to send heartfelt Thank You’s to Gerry’s closest friends, Dean Dobell, Darlene Spychka and Marilyn Siegrest. We Thank the wonderful staff at Kamloops Royal Inland Hospital and Dr. Wynne; as well as endlessly diligent and loving staff at the Pine Grove and Gemstone Nursing homes. In kindness we extend our hearts to all those who supported Gerry. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Kamloops Royal Inland Hospital. Reverend Ray Parker will be officiating a private graveside Service with family and close friends.

Her Journey’s Just Begun Don’t think of her as gone away, Her journey’s just begun. Life holds so many facets, This earth is only one. Just think of her as resting, From the sorrows and the tears, In a place of warmth and comfort, Where there are no days and years. Think how she must be wishing, That we could know today, How nothing but our sadness, Can really pass away. And think of her as living, In the hearts of those she touched, For nothing loved is ever lost; And she was loved so much. E. Brenneman

TORONTO — Finance Minister Joe Oliver says the country was not in a recession in the first half of the year, despite economic data to the contrary. In an interview with The Associated Press, Oliver said there was an economic contraction mainly confined to the energy and resource sector — but he doesn’t believe there was a recession in the first two quarters of 2015. “We don’t believe that the economy was in fact in a recession,’’ Oliver told the news agency. “We’re really talking about a contraction in the energy and resource sector of the economy, which is less than 20 per cent of the economy. “Granted, there is a spillover, but the other 80 per cent was growing.’’ Earlier this month, Statistics

Canada reported real gross domestic product contracted at an annual pace of 0.5 per cent in April to June, preceded by a decline of 0.8 per cent in the first three months of the year. That meets the federal government’s definition of a recession, which is two consecutive quarters of negative GDP. Oliver’s comments clash with those of his party leader. Stephen Harper has acknowledged there was a recession, at least in Alberta, saying last week it was brought on by oil prices that have fallen in half. Some economists say whether Canada fell into a recession is subject to some debate as the country did not exhibit some of the classic hallmarks of an economic downturn, citing job growth and strong trade figures. Oliver, who is running for re-election in the Toronto riding of Eglinton-Lawrence, pointed to economic growth of 0.5 per

cent in June — the first monthly increase in six months. “I can tell you this: We don’t believe we’re in a recession at all now,’’ Oliver said. “The trade numbers are robust. Consumer confidence is good and we returned a budget surplus.’’ The Finance Department said last week that Canada had a $1.9-billion surplus in 2014-15. Harper has used that to buffer his image as a sound fiscal manager in his bid for re-election on Oct. 19. The Liberals and NDP have said they believe the country is in a recession now. Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau says Conservative government underspending in areas including veterans and seniors brought on the recession, while Tom Mulcair of the NDP says the recession is a clear indication that Tory economic policies have failed.

THE CANADIAN PRESS

OTTAWA — Anticipation of tonight’s televised French debate was looming large on the campaign trail yesterday, with the parties jostling for position in advance of the showdown that will likely put NDP Leader Tom Mulcair in the crosshairs. Mulcair has moved to pre-empt one line of attack that’s likely to be aimed at him: His refusal to demand that face coverings be banned during citizenship ceremonies. With the first televised French debate today, the NDP leader has clarified his position and is urging Quebecers not to give in to the politics of fear, ELECTION2015 division and exclusion. #elxn42 #kamloops Quebec is the NDP’s electoral fortress but it is also the province in which public opinion polls suggest banning the niqab is most popular. That makes it inevitable that the issue will be raised during the debate. Bloc Quebecois Leader Gilles Duceppe, attempting to steal back seats the Bloc lost to the NDP in 2011, has already gone hard after Mulcair’s support for the niqab. Conservative Leader Stephen Harper also favours banning the niqab at citizenship ceremonies but Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau and Green Leader Elizabeth May are adamantly opposed.

TORONTO — Two men found guilty of terrorism charges after being accused of plotting to derail a passenger train were sentenced to life in prison yesterday as a Toronto judge found neither of them had expressed remorse for their offences. Raed Jaser and Chiheb Esseghaier were found guilty in March on a total of eight charges between them. Justice Michael Code, the Toronto judge who presided over their trial earlier this year, found both men have not renounced their extremists beliefs, have not accepted responsibility for their offences and present questionable prospects for rehabilitation. “I am satisfied that life imprisonment is the appropriate sentence,’’ he said, noting the men would receive some credit for time already spent in custody. Both men aren’t eligible for parole until 2023. Jaser shook his head, closed his eyes at one point and held his face in one hand after his sentence was delivered. Esseghaier appeared nonchalant, crossing his arms and leaning back in the prisoner’s box as Code read out his 53-page sentencing decision. “The life sentence doesn’t have any meaning for me,’’ the self-represented Esseghaier told Code after his sentence was delivered. Crown lawyers had asked for life sentences for both men and expressed their satisfaction with Code’s decision. “There was one message that was made loud and clear today,’’ said Crown prosecutor Croft Michaelson.

Triple-slaying suspect charged with first-degree murder LIAM CASEY MICHELLE McQUIGGE

THE CANADIAN PRESS

A 57-year-old man has been charged with three counts of firstdegree murder in the separate slayings of three women whose deaths sparked a lockdown and manhunt in an ordinarily peaceful area of eastern Ontario on Tuesday. Basil Borutski was set to appear in a Pembroke, Ont., courthouse yesterday to answer to the charges. A woman’s support group held a vigil outside the court building as Borutski’s brother, meantime, said the family was devastated and in mourning for the three victims. “Right now, my heart just goes out to the families . . . all our brothers and sisters, our hearts go out to all the victims,’’ a wearysounding Will Borutski told The Canadian Press in an interview. “We’re all just in

disbelief. Right now the only ones we’re thinking about is the victims, the children, the families, the friends.’’ Two of the victims used to date his brother, Will Borutski said. The tiny eastern Ontario hamlet of Wilno was still reeling as its members struggled to come to grips with the triple homicide. Local residents said the stunning deaths of three women, all slain within hours of one another on Tuesday morning, have thrown the community of about 300 people into a profound state of grief. “It’s shocking to think that people that you know have come to this,’’ said Corinne Higgins, owner of the Wilno Tavern located in the heart of the village 130 kilometres west of Ottawa. “I’m out of words right now.’’ Higgins personally knew one of the three victims identified by the Ontario Provincial

Retail sales up in July

Police earlier in the day. Anastasia Kuzyk, a 36-year-old Wilno resident, had worked at the tavern for a decade before leaving five years ago to pursue a realestate career, Higgins said. Kuzyk had made a great success of that venture, Higgins said, adding this was of no surprise to people who knew her. “She was a really lovely lady,’’ Higgins said. “She was ambitious, she was person-

able, she was very attentive to customers and very easy to work with as a staff member.’’ Higgins added she was surprised by the arrest of Basil Borutski, who was an occasional patron of the tavern. “He wasn’t the most peaceful man, but nobody expects anything like that.’’ Kuzyk’s home was the first crime scene the OPP visited on Tuesday, touching off an investigation that left the town

The chase, which involved officers with both the Ottawa and provincial police, culminated in the arrest of Buritsky near Ottawa a few hours later. Gary Johnston, Warmardam’s neighbour, said he

saw few indications of trouble during the nearly three years Basil Borutski lived with her on a farm in Foymount, Ont. He added that Warmardam, 48, used to visit his home occasionally, but stopped doing so after Borutski moved in in 2010. The couple sold eggs from the farm property they maintained together, he said, adding Warmardam also worked as a nurse in a local hospice.

OTTAWA — Retail sales rose for a third consecutive month in July to $43.3 billion as Canadians opened their wallets for a new ride and new clothes. The 0.5 per cent increase from June’s level was helped by rising sales of new motor vehicles — mostly trucks — as well as clothing and clothing accessories, Statistics Canada said yesterday. It said six of 11 retail subsectors posted gains. Excluding motor vehicle and parts dealers, retail sales were unchanged for the month. According to Thomson Reuters, economists had expected a gain of 0.5 per cent for the month overall and 0.4 per cent excluding autos. “We’re modestly optimistic that consumer spending should see a pick-up in the next few reports, in part because families will have more time to spend their tax rebates,’’ CIBC economist Nick Exarhos said referring to the Universal Child Care Benefit. The motor vehicle and parts dealers subsector, gained 2.0 per cent in July, and posted the largest gain in dollar terms. Sales at new car dealers gained 2.7 per cent. That was partly offset by flat levels at parts dealers and declines for used car dealers and other types of motor vehicles. Clothing and clothing accessories stores gained 2.5 per cent — the first increase in three months. The Canadian economy struggled through the first half of the year as it contracted in the first two quarters of 2015. However, most economists expect the economy to gain strength in the second half.

Police said information they discovered at Kuzyk’s home led them to a nearby property, where they said they found the body of Natalie Warmardam, 48, of Bonnechere Valley, Ont. Later that morning, police in Bancroft, Ont., discovered the body of 66-year-old Carol Culleton of North Gower, Ont. Police did not release the cause of

Holiday Party?

CHRISTMAS PARTY PLANNING

OH, BEHAVE YOURSELVES!

M

aking a fool of yourself at the office Christmas party is something to be avoided at all costs. After all, you’ll be obliged to face those very co-workers the following week and, if they have a remarkably lowered opinion of you since the party, it’ll feel more than awkward. While the Christmas party can create worries for both employer and employee, it is an event where you can still behave professionally and have fun, and provides a great opportunity to socialize with co-workers and bosses within your company . It all comes down to the simple mantra: Behave right and you’ll have a great night. Here are some straightforward suggestions to keep this part of your work’s social event calendar: • Prepare yourself mentally and show up. Rather than dreading the occasion, the right mindset can provide much-needed balance. Regardless of how you feel about the party or the office, office parties are a crucial part of the office dynamic. Think of it like a Sunday afternoon visit to Grandma; even if you don’t feel like it, you know that you probably should go. • Arrange for a friend to call you at a set time. Go out of earshot to take

the call, then return and say you must leave on an urgent matter. Some good excuses are your friend’s car broke down on the highway or your roommate is locked out of the apartment. • Decide what to wear. Find out what everyone else is wearing before the party and match the tone with your outfit. • Arrive on time. This is an office party, not a discotheque, so turning up fashionably late is not an option and could have you missing out on all the fun. Arriving on time gives you the opportunity to say hello to everyone, and still get out early without seeming rude. • Mingle. Be sure to acknowledge all your co-workers, and especially your superiors and their associates as this will put you in good stead. The Christmas party is an excellent opportunity to cement relationships and to get known in a good way. Talk to your co-workers and bosses about work issues in a positive and complimentary light, focusing on achievements for the year and fun things you remember. Don’t be frightened to talk to your co-workers and management about things outside of work such as the cinema, football, hobbies, family, or dogs. And practise listening as this is as important as the small talk.

OMG, the boss just asked me to organize the Christmas Party!

Holiday PACKAGE DEALS

What am I going to do?

Dorian Greek House - it’s the perfect place - right downtown, great food, cool ambience. Everyone will love it.

• Drink responsibly. Don’t forget where you are — technically, still at work because you’re with the work crowd, so treat the party as an extension to your work day. Keep in mind that everything observed has the potential to be turned into a judgment on your professionalism and work suitability. If there is one thing that can besmirch a reputation, it’s getting out of control on the liquor at the work Christmas party. No matter how much management has insisted that everyone let down their hair, just don’t. Wait until after the party if getting blind drunk is your plan; grab the few trusted co-workers and head off somewhere else. • Be tactful and careful about declaring your undying romantic intentions. It’s that time of year. If you’re having an office blowout and Jeanna from HR is there, you may be tempted to make your move. This can go either way. Remember, you will have to see this person at work on Monday. Think: Do I really like them? Do they like me? How much have I had to drink? Will I regret this in the morning? This is called a reality check. If you fail the reality check, under no circumstances should you make your move.

Prices are per person, including taxes and gratuities, based on double occupancy.

Q&A: THE CRAFT

KTW CAUGHT UP WITH A CRAFT BEER EXPERT FOR SOME BACKGROUND BEFORE BREWLOOPS BEGINS POURING TONIGHT.

KTW: What is craft beer? David Beardsell, owner of Red Collar Brewing Company: If you’d asked me that question 20 years ago, it would have been a lot easier. It’s beer that is made in small quantities and usually in really regionally little breweries. Twenty years ago, if you weren’t a multinational company, you were a craft brewer. KTW: What’s the difference from other beer? DB: It has so much to do with passion. We’re here simply because we want to make beer. I think most of these other companies are here because they want to make money for their shareholders. KTW: How many craft breweries are in Kamloops? DB: There’s really only one [Red Collar]. Noble Pig is a brew pub. They make craft beer. [But, it isn’t sold outside of the pub.] KTW: How does distribution work? DB: For a brewery like ours, we sell to very selective places. Phillips, for example, sells throughout B.C. KTW: Why the surge in popularity? DB: I think it’s the same reason why people are eating quinoa. People are more interested in what they’re putting into their bodies. Look at the resurgence of organic food. Fifteen years ago, there was no market for organic food . . . . There’s a lot of things in our society where quality is important to people.

SUNDAY:

Beer Brunch: 10 a.m. to 2 pm. at Noble Pig. For more information or for tickets, go online to brewloopsfest.ca.

KTW: Why is it more expensive? DB: Our raw materials cost twice as much at least and our economies of scale . . . . A brewer produces 100 times more beer per hour for a big one than for a small brewery. . . . The cost to produce is much higher. KTW: Can you recommend a gateway beer for newbies? DB: That’s a really tough question. The Belgian Pepper at the Noble Pig is a great gateway beer. We sometimes have a beer that we call a blonde, which is a light lager. The beers that are really the most popular are the IPAs, very bitter, very aromatic — not a gateway beer at all. KTW: What is your favourite? DB: My favourite beers are everything Belgian, essentially. KTW: What does IBU mean? DB: International Bittering Unit [scale]. The higher the IBU, the more bitter and aromatic the beer will be. KTW: Doing anything special for Brewloops? DB: We’ve made an interesting beer. We’ve got 30 kilos of coffee from Red Beard. We ground it into the beer and it’s made for a very high caffeine, high alcohol that will fuel a lot of people for a long time. We’re calling it a double dubbel. It’s a Belgian-style dubbel, but it has twice as much as everything in it.

Healthy smiles start with early dental care IHA TIPS FOR PROTECTING THE PEARLY WHITES CAROL GULLIFORD

SPECIAL TO KTW

T

he dental care you provide for your child sets the stage for healthy adult teeth. Knowing what to do on a day-to-day basis will reap benefits for not only your child’s happiness and wellbeing but also your pocketbook. A daily oral-care routine for your children prevents decay and helps empower them to make dental health a lifelong priority. Baby teeth are just as important as adult teeth. They help children speak clearly and eat well. They also help form the jaw and hold space for adult teeth to grow into. Your child will have baby teeth until they are 12 to 13 years old. Here are some tips to help parents and caregivers keep those tiny teeth bright and healthy.

Avoid germs

It is best to avoid putting an object that has been in your mouth into your baby’s mouth. Babies are not born with decay-causing bacteria but these bacteria can be transferred from parents or caregivers to baby. Licking a soother, sharing a toothbrush or spoon when testing a child’s food are some ways germs can be passed on to your child.

Replacing your child’s toothbrush every three months also reduces exposure to decay causing bacteria.

Clean every day

Baby teeth are at risk for decay as soon as they appear. Before teeth appear, wipe your baby’s gums with a clean, wet cloth once a day, every day. Once teeth appear, brush with a rice-size amount of fluoride toothpaste twice a day, every day. Once all baby teeth are in (about three years old), increase the amount of toothpaste to a pea-sized amount. A parent needs to brush their child’s teeth until they can write, not print, their own name.

Lift the lip

Once a month, lift the lip to check for white or brown spots on the teeth. These spots are the earliest signs of tooth decay. To learn about Interior Health’s Lift the Lip/ Fluoride Varnish Program, go online to interiorhealth. ca/YourHealth/ InfantsChildren/Pages/ DentalHealth.aspx.

Limit sweet drinks

Avoid juice, milk and sweetened drinks between meals. Give plain water for thirsty children between meals. Frequent sipping on sweet drinks throughout the day increases

your child’s risk of tooth decay. Limit milk and juice to regularly scheduled meal and snack times. When providing juice, ensure it is 100 per cent unsweetened. Never put a baby to bed with a bottle containing these beverages — water is best.

Pack healthy snacks

Fresh food is best. Give kids healthy snacks like fresh fruits and vegetables, dairy products, meats and grains. Sugary or starchy foods that stick to teeth can increase your child’s risk of tooth decay.

Visit the dentist

The Canadian Dental Association recommends a child’s first visit to be six months after the first tooth appears, usually by the age of one. Talk to your dentist about applying sealants to the first permanent molars to prevent tooth decay. Regular check-ups keep teeth healthy and cost less than treating dental problems. For more information on dental health, go online to interiorhealth. ca/YourHealth/ InfantsChildren/ Pages/DentalHealth. aspx or interiorhealth. ca/YourHealth/ ChildrenYouth/Pages/ DentalHealth.aspx. Carol Gulliford is a dental professional practice leader with Interior Health Authority.

Pain free in 2 weeks. This is what happened to me personally. I tried drugs, acupuncture, magnets and many other methods. Finally after taking a specially processed shark cartilage I was pain free in 2 weeks. It gave me the idea that I could help thousands of the 5 million men and women suffering daily in Canada with the worst pain on earth to have less pain or no pain at all. Nick A. Jerch, President of Bell Lifestyle. <For 40 years I had injections and drugs and finally Bell Shark Cartilage #1 spared me the endless torture I suffered day and night with 3 bottles costing less than $100. Pat Laughlin, Coldwater, ON. <Cancelled knee replacement. 1 was in pain and limping. Have no more pain now. Can square dance for hours. Anton Melnychuk, Porcupine Plain, SK. <At first I was skeptical. I gradually noticed an improvement. Then I took another brand. I was surprised having so much pain again. Eventually I realized that I needed to re-order Bell. Found relief again. Marie Ciraulo, 72, Oakland, CA. <Many people on our website write: “Can walk again for hours”;”Can climb stairs without hanging on to railing”;”First time in 15 years can sleep at night” Rheumatoid arthritis in joints down 90%, same for my sister…Also guaranteed for sciatica. Hundreds of testimonials all with full names and towns. Shark bones/cartilage was a previously thrown away by-product of the food industry. No sharks are caught for their cartilage. Don’t let any activist confuse you.

My libido was restored for good sex. I’ve given it also to friends with the same results. One of them is a diabetic and overweight. Dr. Louis Rolland, 72, St. Hyacinthe, QC <Having orgasms off the Richter scale. It’s like I’m a teenager again. The world owes you big time. Lawrie Roberts, 47, Toronto, ON <Wonderful to feel like a man again. It’s wonderful to feel close to my wife again. God bless you! Charles E. Palen, 77, Burnaby, BC.

DRIVEN TO FEED CITY

The Kamloops Food Bank collected 56,000 pounds on the weekend during its fall instalment of its city-wide drive. With the help of the city’s Rotary clubs and other individuals and groups, the food was collected, sorted, packaged up and is now in the food bank’s warehouse. KTW helped by distributing collection bags to homes. This was the 15th Rotary-sponsored drive; during that time, 708,5000 pounds have been collected, food that, if the agency had to buy it, would have cost $1.7 million.

PUMPKIN

SPICE, EVERYTHING NICE

Have you ever wanted to make your own pumpkin-spiced latte? What about pumpkinspiced muffins? Whether it be you or a friend who has been swept up in the pumpkin craze that arrives each fall, here is a simple recipe to bring the flavours to your own kitchen, as provided by The Old Farmer’s Almanac. Purchase the

ingredients from a bulk-food store, mix them together and store them in an airtight container.

VW scandal escalates as CEO apologizes GEIR MOULSON PAN PYLAS

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BERLIN — Volkswagen AG’s emissions scandal crisis escalated Tuesday as the company issued a profit warning, set aside billions to cover the fallout and lost billions more in market value. VW’s CEO said he is “endlessly sorry’’ that the world’s top-selling carmaker squandered worldwide trust in its brand. The rapid-fire developments came as Volkwagen stunningly admitted that

some 11 million of the German carmaker’s diesel vehicles worldwide contain software that evades emissions controls, not just the half a million cars that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency said violate the Clean Air Act. As its share price sunk for a second straight day, Volkswagen said it was setting aside around 6.5 billion euros ($7.3 billion) to cover the fallout. CEO Martin Winterkorn apologized for the deception under his leadership and pledged a fast and thorough investiga-

tion, but gave no indication that he might resign. “Millions of people across the world trust our brands, our cars and our technologies,’’ Winterkorn said in a video message. “I am endlessly sorry that we have disappointed this trust. I apologize in every way to our customers, to authorities and the whole public for the wrongdoing.’’ “We are asking, I am asking for your trust on our way forward,’’ he said. “We will clear this up.’’ VW has yet to explain who installed the software,

under what direction, and why. “I do not have the answers to all the questions at this point myself, but we are in the process of clearing up the background relentlessly,’’ Winterkorn said. The damage to Volkswagen’s reputation was reflected in the market’s response. Volkswagen’s share price slid a further 16.8 per cent Tuesday to close at 111.20 euros, on top of a 17 per cent decline this week. The trigger to the com-

pany’s market woes was last Friday’s revelation from the EPA that VW rigged nearly half a million cars to defeat U.S. smog tests, exposing the carmaker to potential fines of $37,500 per vehicle, and anyone found personally responsible to $3,750 per violation. After blaming unrelated issues for more than a year, the company finally told U.S. regulators that it installed software that switches engines to a cleaner mode during official emissions testing. The software then switches off again

on the road, enabling cars to drive more powerfully while emitting as much as 40 times the legal pollution limit. “Let’s be clear about this. Our company was dishonest. With the EPA, and the California Air Resources Board, and with all of you. And in my German words, we have totally screwed up,’’ the head of Volkswagen’s U.S. division, Michael Horn, said Monday while unveiling a new Passat model in New York. See EMISSIONS, B18

With Volkswagen’s admission that 11 million of its diesel vehicles worldwide contain software that can rig emissions tests, the German automaker joins a list of auto industry scandals that spans several decades.

FORD PINTO

At least 27 people died during the 1970s due to the faulty position of fuel tanks in the Ford Pinto. In some cases, the fuel tank burst into flames following a rear-end collision. Ford recalled more than 1.5 million Pintos in 1978.

“We must fix those cars to prevent this from ever happening again, and we have to make things right. With the government, the public, our customers, our employees, and very importantly, with our dealers.’’ The shockwaves were felt across the sector as traders wondered who else may get embroiled. Germany’s Daimler AG, the maker of Mercedes-Benz cars, was down 7 per cent Tuesday, while BMW AG fell 6 per cent. France’s Renault SA was 7.1 per cent lower. In a statement, Volkswagen admitted that “discrepancies’’ related to vehicles with Type EA 189 engines actually involve some 11 million vehicles worldwide — more than the 10 million or so cars it sold last year. “Manipulation at Volkswagen must never happen again,’’ Winterkorn said in his video message. Volkswagen has more than 600,000 employees

FIRESTONE TIRES

About 6.5 million Firestone tires were recalled in 2000 because the tires could shred, blow out or fail. Most of the tires were used in Ford SUVs and light pickup trucks. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said in 2001 that it received 271 reports of deaths and 800 injuries related to the faulty tires.

TOYOTA

Toyota agreed to pay $1.2 billion in a settlement last year, admitting that it hid information about

under general suspicion because of the grave mistakes of a few.’’ The scandal is hugely damaging in an industry

defects that caused Toyota and Lexus vehicles to accelerate unexpectedly. Toyota recalled more than 10 million vehicles, starting in 2009, for several issues, including faulty brakes, sticky gas pedals and problematic floor mats.

GENERAL MOTORS

The automaker’s faulty ignition switches have been linked to at least 169 deaths. The switch could slip out of the run position and turn the engine off while driving. Last week, GM agreed to pay $900 million to settle a criminal investigation over the ignition issue.

that relies on reputations for trustworthiness. “Brands are all about trust and it takes years and years to develop. But

in the space of 24 hours, Volkswagen has gone from one people could trust to one people don’t know what to think of,’’ said Nigel Currie, an independent U.K.-based sponsorship and branding consultant. The company said the 6.5 billion euros it is setting aside this quarter will cover necessary service measures and “other efforts to win back the trust’’ of customers. It didn’t mention possible fines or penalties. The violations described by the EPA could, in theory, total about $18 billion. Christian Stadler, professor of strategic management at the Warwick Business School, expressed surprise at the scale of this scandal, but said companies rarely pay maximum fines under U.S. regulations. “I don’t think this is a life-threatening event but it’s clear it’s going to be very expensive,’’ he said. VW conceded that the costs it is booking in the third quarter are “subject to revaluation’’ in light of its investigations and that

2015 earnings targets will be adjusted. It didn’t specify by how much. The company hasn’t revealed the results of internal investigations, although it has said that the software in question was installed in other vehicles with diesel engines, and asserted that in most cases, it “does not have any effect.’’ It also said new vehicles with EU 6 diesel engines currently on sale in the European Union comply with legal requirements and environmental standards. “I hope that the facts will be put on the table as quickly as possible,’’ German Chancellor Angela Merkel said in Berlin. Before the scandal, Winterkorn, CEO since 2007, was hoping to have his stewardship of the company extended at a board meeting Friday. Earlier this month, Volkswagen said it planned to give Winterkorn a twoyear contract extension which would keep him in charge through the end of 2018.
