Len Marchand Sr., the former Liberal MP and senator from Kamloops, died Friday at age 82. Marchand is survived by wife, Donna Parr, daughter Lori Marchand and son Len Marchand Jr. Lori is general manager of Western Canada Theatre and Len Jr. is a judge. Lori knows how her father would react if he was to read and hear all the tributes pouring out about the trailblazing man. “My dad was such a humble man,” Lori said. “He would be putting his hands up to his face and saying, ‘Oh my goodness.’” Her family has also read and listened to the comments coming from all aspects of Canadian society about Len. “My dad was an amazing person,” Lori said. “He was always curious. He liked to hear life stories and he made people feel special.

A volatile love triangle in Salmon Arm led to the murder of a 22-yearold man at the hands of two high school students that was only solved when police launched a Mr. Big undercover operation nearly four years later, jurors have been told. A 24-year-old Salmon Arm man is standing trial in B.C. Supreme Court in Kamloops, charged with firstdegree murder in connection to the Nov. 21, 2008, death of Tyler Myers. A 25-year-old woman is also charged, but a date for her trial has not yet been set. (Because both accused were under the age of 18 at the time of the alleged incident, neither can be named under the Youth Criminal Justice Act. KTW will refer to them as Young Male, or Y.M., and Young Female, or Y.F.) Yesterday, a 12-person jury heard an opening statement from Crown prosecutor Bill Hilderman. He said Myers and Y.M. both believed they were in a relationship with Y.F. and both were aware of the other’s involvement with her. “Understandably, this caused friction between the two men,” Hilderman said. “There was an incident where [Y.M.] got into an altercation with

Mr. Myers where he pushed him. . . . Mr. Myers said he would kill him.” Hilderman said Y.M. and Y.F. then hatched a plan to borrow a gun from a friend and lure Myers to an empty schoolyard near a forested area. Y.F. planned to have Myers stand in a lit location of the schoolyard, jurors were told, and leave him momentarily under the guise of going to the bathroom. “[Y.M.] was hiding in the woods where it was dark,” Hilderman said. “When he saw him in the clear, he shot him once. Mr. Myers staggered and went a few steps then fell down. “[Y.M.] then shot him in the back, and [Y.F.] said to shoot him in the head, so he shot him in the head. Mr. Myers was clearly dead after that.” Y.M. was interviewed by police two days later and denied the murder. The investigation slowed after that, Hilderman said, but police launched a Mr. Big undercover operation in June 2012 targeting Y.F. Undercover Mounties posing as gangsters convinced Y.F. they could help her clear up any suspicion if she told them everything she knew about the murder, jurors were told. “They told her they had a guy who was dying of cancer and he would take the fall for it,” Hilderman said. “But they also needed to hear [Y.M.’s] side of the event.” See VICTIM’S MOM, A2

Victim’s mom dropped him off From A1

Hilderman said Y.M. later told police he felt “stupid� for having been manipulated by Y.F. The first witness called by the Crown was the victim’s mother, Barbara Myers. She said she dropped her son off the night of the murder at a Salmon Arm school. “He said he was meeting [Y.F.] because he was in a situation

where [Y.F.] had a friend who I guess viewed himself as [Y.F.’s] boyfriend,� she said. “They were going to talk about the situation. “They were going to meet and they were going to talk about this triangle.� Barbara Myers said her son seemed “distressed� before she dropped him off. “I told him to bring [Y.F.] back for supper,� she said.

“He said he would probably do that.� The next day, she said, two detectives showed up at her door to say her son was dead. Prior to the Hilderman’s opening statement, Y.M. pleaded guilty to second-degree murder. The Crown did not accept the plea and said the trial, which is expected to last about a month, will continue under the firstdegree murder charge.

Refinery woes draining city pumps CAM FORTEMS STAFF REPORTER cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

Petro-Canada continues to struggle with fuel shortages in wake of problems at its Edmonton refinery and wildfire-related shutdowns of oilsands production. Early yesterday, at least one Petro-Canada station in Kamloops reported it had no fuel in its pumps. A clerk at the downtown gas station on 10th Avenue said it ran out Friday and she did not know when it will be resupplied. A spokeswoman at parent company Suncor said it continues to focus effort on the unit at its Edmonton refinery. “We’re doing everything we can to try and improve the situation,” said Sneh Seetal.

That includes securing additional supply from other refiners. Kamloops is a hub on Kinder Morgan’s pipeline from Edmonton, including gasoline distribution for the Interior. Thus far, shortages appear to be limited to Suncor’s own Petro-Canada stations. But that could spread to other retailers supplied by the Edmonton refinery, said Gasbuddy analyst Dan McTeague. “They’re on allocation,” McTeague said. “They’re not out, but can’t supply everybody.” McTeague said it is likely Suncor is favouring customers at other retailers so it retains the relationship after the refinery is brought back to normal production. “You’re going to hurt yourself first,” he said. McTeague said it’s important to note supply

is not expected to dry up. Instead, stations will have reduced allocations and intermittent supply. Suncor’s Seetal said there is no target date to bring its Edmonton refinery back up to normal production, but added the company is making it a priority. The shortages come at the same time prices spiked to $1.20 a litre at many Kamloops gas stations. McTeague said there is little or no relationship between the shortages and increasing prices. Instead, rising prices are driven by an increase in the Chicago spot market, from which supply in Edmonton is priced. “That’s [Edmonton] where we price all fuels in Western Canada.”

Ranchers take hit on spring cattle prices CAM FORTEMS

STAFF REPORTER

cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

After several years of enjoying steeply rising prices, ranchers who brought cattle to market this spring took an unexpected cut in earlyseason profit. Kevin Boon, general manager of the B.C. Cattlemen’s Association, said prices received by ranchers at the auction floor for calves declined

by as much as one-third compared to last year. “They’ve dropped off significantly,” he said. The spring market pales in comparison to the key season for ranchers selling calves. Animals brought to auction this spring were overwintered — typically underweight animals ranchers fed over the winter season in hopes of increasing weight for spring.

The vast majority of calves in the Kamloops region go to market beginning in August and peaking in October, when they are brought off the range. Boon attributed the falling prices in part to shock in the oil and gas market, while an uncertain global economic outlook has also contributed to the drop. “With the drop in oil and gas, the disposable income isn’t there

— they’re not buying our product,” he said. The sharp drop comes after a multi-year run of higher prices resulting in record highs each year. Boon said well-managed ranches will remain profitable with cattle prices at these levels, while a Canadian dollar trading in the 76-cent range also helps ranchers as about half of Canadian cattle is exported to other markets.

Y Dream Home Lottery sets record ANDREA KLASSEN

IT’S

FATHER’S DAY JUNE 19

It’s already too late to buy tickets for this year’s Y Dream Home Lottery, but a lucky few can still score an entry into this year’s draw. While it’s not uncommon for tickets to sell out for the annual fundraiser for the Kamloops Y, lottery marketing manager Bryce Herman said a new record has been set in its 20th year — all 11,000 tickets sold in just seven weeks. Herman believes this year’s lottery odds, which give participants a one in 34 chance of winning a prize, played a role in the sales.

This year’s home offering, located at 703 Hayward Pl. in Westsyde, includes 3,500 square feet of space, four bedrooms and a xeriscaped yard. It also includes deck outfitting from Art Knapp Garden Centre and Florist, in addition to the usual appliances. Herman said the house seems to have resonated with those who stopped by. “I think that 20 years of momentum certainly didn’t hurt,” he said. “I think that was a big piece. A lot of people were really excited to think, wow, 20 years, and wanted to be a part of it.” With tickets snapped up, Herman said the Y will make the $250,000 organizers had expected.

The city’s real-estate market shows no signs of slowing, with recent numbers indicating residential sales jumped by a third compared to the same month last year. Statistics from the Kamloops & District Real Estate Association show sales in May were up 36 per cent over last year. This comes at the same time as supply continues to shrink. The number of listings compared to 2015 is down 15 per cent. Cyndi Crossley, vice-president of the real-estate board, said the market is being driven by out-oftown buyers. “In Kamloops, we are seeing buyers coming from the Lower Mainland, and understandably so, due to the sale prices and our affordable housing,” she said. The median price for a single-family home in Kamloops is $405,000. That is influenced in part by 20 homes selling for more than $600,000 in May.

Police continue to target the Wolf Pack Yet more weapons police say are connected to the Wolf Pack gang have been seized — this time in the rural Fraser Valley community of Agassiz, which is across the Fraser River from Chilliwack. Kamloops RCMP Cpl. Jodi Shelkie said local Mounties joined RCMP officers from Agassiz and Chilliwack in executing a search warrant at a home in Agassiz on Thursday, with 17 weapons being confiscated. Included in the seizure were two fold-

ing stock rifles, two sawed-off shotguns, ammunition, scopes and magazines. “No arrests were made at the time of

the seizure but charges arising from this search are expected in the future,” Shelkie said. The raid in Agassiz follows a series of similar raids of homes in Kamloops that led to the seizure of numerous weapons, large amount of drugs and bundles of cash. The purported leader of the Wolf Pack in Kamloops — 37-year-old Brad Davis — was arrested and remains in custody. He is facing a number of charges.

To Randy Bahan, there’s only one way trucks should be leaving the Owl Road landfill — and it’s not via the road of the same name that stretches out beside his home, just off Valleyview Drive. “A two year-old could tell you which is the best route,” Bahan said while watching from his living room window as a loader truck attempted to make a turn off Owl Road. Bahan is among a group of Valleyview residents pushing the city to move the access route to the dump, which it purchased last year for $10 million, to nearby Highland Drive. But not everyone shares his view of the situation, least of all residents of Juniper Ridge. A recent survey conducted by the Juniper Ridge Community Association found little support for a new access point. Of the households surveyed — about 20 per cent of those living in the neighbourhood — only six per cent said they would support moving the entryway. Association member Gillian Stevenson believes the results are representative of the neighbourhood’s feelings. In both cases, residents say their objections are safety-based. Bahan said visibility from Owl Road is poor and worries his 11-year-old daughter could be struck by a heavy truck turning onto the road as she rides to school. Valleyview secondary is nearby. While residents who spoke to KTW could not recall an accident taking place as a result of the use of Owl Road, Bahan

and Valleyview Community Association president Jim Freathy said near-misses are common. “The fact of the matter is, this is a two-lane road, it’s in a residential area and it’s not suitable for heavy truck traffic. It’s a real basic, simple argument about safety,” Freathy said. Highland Drive, which has more lanes and straightforward highway access, strikes him as the better choice. Juniper residents, meanwhile, are concerned about the possibility of an increased number of heavy trucks traversing the steep grades of Highland Drive. “We had a garbage truck that dumped its load quite a few years ago at the bottom of the hill because its brakes failed,” Stevenson said. “Anything that happens on that hill impacts every resident of Juniper and it also impacts your service people, bus drivers, school bus drivers, ambulance drivers. Anyone who goes up that hill gets impacted by those trucks.” Faced with neighbourhood opposition on both sides, Mayor Peter Milobar is hoping the city can take politics out of the issue, which will come before council in the next few weeks, by basing the decision on safety recommendations from an outside consultant. The city is spending about $25,000 to have the two road options reviewed. “They both have plusses, they both have minuses,” Milobar said of the two access options. “I think if you asked those residents at their core, they’d all say just close the dump down, we don’t want it at all. But it’s not going to be an operational dump. I think now that we’re starting to get to where we’re going to operate it,

we’re starting to hear less of those types of concerns.” Public works director Jen Fretz said if the city does end up moving the entryway — which she estimates would cost $500,000 to $1 million — it’s not necessarily a straightforward process. “One of the things that has come up with this look at our options is all the drainage comes through the Owl Road landfill,” she said. “So there are areas where we can’t consider changing because all of the drainage from Juniper goes through the landfill and we obviously need to contain that for a number of different reasons.” There’s also a question of how trucks would exit the landfill onto Highland Drive. Fretz said options under review include a right-in, right-out access, but that would require heavy trucks to make a u-turn at the traffic circle at the top of Highland Drive. “These are not passenger vehicles. There are, at times, very large trucks,” Fretz said. She said it’s so far unclear if Owl Road is a safety risk in its present form. “People are saying there’s been lots of accidents, but we don’t have any information about accidents that have happened there,” she said. “People are also saying there’s hundreds and hundreds of vehicles going in and out and we don’t have that information either. I think waylaying some of the fears and showing some of the actual data might help the situation.” Fretz said staff will present the consultant’s recommendation to Juniper and Valleyview residents at a public meeting, but have not decided whether that will take place before or after council’s vote.

Chamber hopes time on its side A call to eliminate the annual time change got a boost from the B.C. Chamber of Commerce last week — but only if other West Coast states join in. The Kamloops Chamber of Commerce has been calling for an end to time changes for several years, but until now has not been able to gain support from its provincial counterparts. The policy doesn’t call for an outright end to the time change as it has in years past, said chamber president Ryan Scorgie, but for the province to look at what other coastal jurisdictions are doing. “There’s an alliance of all the Pacific states — Alaska, Canada and all

the U.S. western states. And really the recommendation says now the B.C. government should work with those specific stakeholders on everyone moving to daylight savings time on a year-round basis,” he said. “Many of those states are already bringing in legislation to have a referendum around these issues, so we want to make sure if they’re doing it, we’re doing it, and if they’re not doing, it we’re not doing it either.” The chamber has argued moving the clocks forward and backwards each year can cause accidents and injuries due to disrupted sleep patterns. Another eight policies from the Kamloops

chamber also found provincial support. They include a review of B.C.’s sales tax model and changes to how the province’s wineries and cideries are taxed. “They’re classed right now as a light industry as compared to agricultural, so that drastically impacts their bill for property taxes,” Scorgie said. “As light industry, they’re taxed at a much higher rate. For someone who is operating a winery, it can be the difference between $1,400 in taxes and $14,000 in taxes.” Scorgie said lower taxes would allow winery owners to spend more money investing in their business-

es, which could increase B.C.’s growing agricultural tourism sector. Two of the policies, calling for better application guidelines for the Canada Jobs Grant and consistent truck driver training standards, will also go to the Canadian Chamber of Commerce convention this fall for further debate. • Kamloops will be doubly represented on this year’s B.C. Chamber of Commerce Board. Joining Brant Hasanen, who chaired the provincial board last year is Aleece Laird, who begins a two-year term as a provincial director. Both Hasanen and Laird are past-presidents of the local chamber.

A screen grab from a video recording of the incident Friday shows police trying to get a man with a hatchet to surrender peacefully.

Taser to subdue the man, to no avail. Shelkie said the man continued to swing the hatchet at the cops until one officer used pepper spray, which led to the man dropping the weapon.

He then ran into the mall, where a third officer again used a Taser, which managed to subdue the suspect. During the confrontation, police can be heard pleading with the man to get on the ground. Video of the incident was shot by a transit user and is online at kamloopsthisweek.com. “Any time a police officer must arrest a violent person, it is a potentially dangerous situation”, Shelkie said. “But in this case, where the violent person is in a very public place and other citizens could be injured, it is especially dangerous. Luckily, the officers were able to take the suspect into custody without the safety of any bystanders being compromised.” A 29-year-old man is in custody, with several charges pending.

Body shaver’s sentence upheld Justice Sheri Donegan erred in considering the offence a “serious sexual assault.” His lawyer also claimed three years in prison was “demonstrably unfit” considering the circumstances of the offence. On Friday, a threejudge B.C. Court of Appeal panel dismissed the appeal of Hume’s sentence. “In summary, the manner in which Mr. Hume shaved [the victim’s] genitals and other body parts was highly invasive, humiliating and degrading,” wrote Justice Nicole Garson.

Three months after B.C.’s top court upheld the conviction of a former Lytton support worker who stripped and shaved the body hair of a young man passed out at his house, Michael Hume’s appeal of his three-year prison sentence has been dismissed. Last June, the 48-year-old was ordered to spend three years behind bars for the bizarre August 2013 incident. He appealed that sentence on the grounds that B.C. Supreme Court

“The fact that there was no actual penetration or physical injury is not, in these circumstances, determinative of the seriousness of the assault.” During Hume’s trial, court heard the incident split the Fraser Canyon First Nations community of Lytton between sympathy for the respected support worker and community organizer and his victim, a young adult whose name is protected by a courtordered publication ban. The victim was emotional during his testimony, struggling through tears as he testi-

fied to waking up on an August morning in 2013 after a drinking session as Hume was shaving his pubic region. Much of his body hair had been removed. He said Hume laughed and said, “Your girlfriend will like it.” Hume then drove the young man home, gave him $50 and warned him not to tell anyone. Hume earlier threatened him not to leave. Hume’s earlier failed appeal of his conviction was based, in part, on the fact body hair found in his vacuum was never identified as having come from the victim.

Several Kamloops RCMP cruisers raced to the transit exchange on the North Shore on Friday morning to help colleagues dealing with a man threatening officers with a hatchet. Cpl. Jodi Shelkie said the drama unfolded at 10:30 a.m. when two Mounties were patrolling the bus loop next to Northills Shopping Centre. The officers had been told two men were drinking alcohol at the exchange and they told the pair consumption of booze in a public place is illegal. “One of the men was cooperative,” Shelkie said. “However, one became belligerent with the officers and started aggressively yelling at them.” The man then pulled a hatchet from his backpack and began swinging it at the Mounties, which prompted one officer to use a

THIS IS POLICING DONE AT IS FINEST

I

n recent weeks, a video of a police incident in England was making the rounds here in North America, with the message being police departments on this continent could learn from it. The video showed a frenzied man armed with a machete and a number of police officers — estimated at 30 — taking their time and using their minds to eventually disarm him without resorting to using firearms on the man. He was clearly out of control and could very well have killed someone, but the officers in Corby used patience and intelligence in finally subduing the man. In Kamloops on Friday, a similar scene played out in the parking lot next to the North Shore transit exchange when a disturbed man holding a hatchet engaged in standoff with two Mounties. Fortunately for the public, a transit user named Zack Hudson filmed the drama and posted it online (it can be viewed online at kamloopsthisweek.com). What it shows is similar to what we watched unfold in England — police officers using patience and skill in disarming a distraught person rather than relying on guns and bullets. The scenario is scary, but the officers involved behaved admirably. They kept the man far enough from them and the public to lessen the risk of injury. They used non-lethal weapons (Taser and pepper spray). And they repeatedly implored the man to “please get down.” It truly is a remarkable piece of footage that shows policing done at its very best, in which those sworn to protect us do so by also protecting the man they need to arrest and get off the street. Hopefully, the RCMP gets a copy of the video and uses it in training sessions. After viewing it a number of times, we’d suggest the work of the officers that day is worth a commendation.

Costs outweigh convenience

T

he issue of whether alcohol should be sold in Save-OnFoods has become an extremely hot item for Kamloopsians. I have many reasons why I’m not in favour of expanding the sale of alcohol to grocery stores. First, our agenda indicated this was a specialty wine store licence and Save-On would be selling any and all B.C.-made wine, cider and sake in its Sahali store. This is contrary to what was reported as a relocation of an existing VQA-only licence. I have four key concerns about expanding the sale of alcohol to grocery stores: health-related issues, adverse local economic activity, unfair competition and poor provincial policy that does not support local wineries and will decrease public revenues to government coffers. Mark Hicken, a Vancouver lawyer who specializes in wine policy, said: “I think you will see a decline in the number of government liquor stores and the number of freestanding liquor stores.” Already, Save-On-Foods in other communities is offering an inducement private stores can’t match: discounts on items like meat or barbecue sauce for customers who also buy wine. This is not free-enterprise, as so many argue. There is no level playing field and it is unfair competition. A private liquor store is not allowed to compete with grocery stores, but suddenly grocery stores are allowed to sell booze. It is a double standard. Even free-enterprise Alberta does not allow liquor sales in grocery stores as they must build a separate store next door. This is not just about easier access to alcohol or the free

CITY HALL market. The provincial government is realigning our liquor-distribution model to benefit major corporations over local small businesses and publicly-owned stores. While we might get a bit more convenience picking up an occasional bottle of alcohol with our groceries, the high societal costs and personal tragedies will more than counteract the convenience. The Centre for Addiction and Mental Health found that privatized alcohol sales in Ontario would result in up to $1.6 billion in social costs, saying “these results clearly demonstrate that alcohol retail monopoly has a key role in preventing alcohol-related harm and therefore should be retained.” If the B.C. government is truly sincere about helping our local wineries, there is a much simpler way than turning the distribution and profit over to the Pattison group and its other preferred corporate benefactors. Fortunately, the system is already in place, which gives the Liquor Control Board the ability to issue a policy directive to purchase all wine our local wineries produce, along with a new directive to provincial liquor stores to prominently feature our local winery products. Local beer and wine stores

will then be able to use the resulting bigger and more convenient government store inventories for replenishing their smaller inventories, as they do now with other liquor products. The net result of following this track is solving a problem with no risk of a NAFTA unfair trade challenge. We keep the massive public profits and jobs remain available to support all British Columbians in the future. I would never be so presumptuous or over-confident as to buy a VQA store and licence and close it before I received the highly contentious variance needed to relocate it. It is not my responsibility as a councillor to rescue private businessmen who have acted recklessly, no matter how influential they might be in provincial politics. There is talk about moving Kamloops’ only exclusive VQA licence permanently. If the company is sincere in its desire to support our local wineries, it would find another way to keep the only VQA licence in our community, to support those local wineries. If, in this new era, our present liquor distribution channels are compromised and marijuana is fully legalized, should we expect the right to also pick up a bag of pot with that bottle of wine and your other grocery items? After all, we are adults and we should be able to buy what we want, where we want it, shouldn’t we? Think twice before jumping on the grocery-store bandwagon and please keep in mind the increased social costs, the economic pitfalls, the loss of massive public revenues and the loss of good-paying jobs before asking council to take this leap on your behalf.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Editor: Not everyone gets to talk to their heroes. Not everyone has the chance to sit next to the living embodiment of what can be accomplished when you set your mind to it. The first time I spoke to my hero was in October of 2008. I was sitting in my living room and my phone rang. A scratchy voice on the other side of the line asked if I was “Joey Jack, who writes all those letters to the editor.” “Yes. Who is this, please?” I replied, expecting someone was preparing to tell me off. “Well, my name is Len Marchand Sr. and I grew up just down the road from your family on the reserve in Vernon.” I was shocked. He refused to allow me to call him Mr. Marchand or senator or any other sort of honorific. “Just Len,” he said. Len had called to let me know

he had been following me in the paper over the years and felt I had greater things ahead of me. My hero made me cry. We kept in touch over the years and would talk politics and whatever else we could think of. We laughed about Pierre Trudeau while his beautiful wife, Donna, served coffee and muffins. Len always corrected the way I said

advice and always told me he was proud of me. We spoke after the last federal election for an article I was writing. He was beaming while talking about the election results. “I look back to the mid- and late ‘50s, when we were just trying to get the vote,” he said, “Now 54 First Nations people were candidates.”

THANK YOU, LEN kilometre. Who was I to argue with the man who brought the metric system to Canada? By the way, reporters on CBC say kilometre correctly. Over the years, Len and I kept in touch over the telephone and I secretly adopted him as my grandpa. I would call him to brag about good news in my life and to ask for advice. He always gave me sound

When I asked him about Stephen Harper, he said, “The only thing I like about Stephen Harper is that my second name is Stephen and his second name is Joseph, which was my dad’s name.” We laughed. Over the past six to eight months, I’ve been dealing with depression and the last time Len called me was just this past March.

I called him the previous day and he could hear the sadness in my voice as I tried to be strong and put on a brave face when he asked how I was doing. The next day, he called me back and told me he cared for me and that I should keep my eyes on the prize of better things tomorrow. Now that I’m feeling better about things, I had meant to call him and thank him for always being in my corner. So, while many people will read the tributes and recaps about The Hon. Leonard Marchand Sr. PC CM, I just wanted to tell you about my hero, fellow Okanagan Indian, friend and secret adopted grandpa Len. Thank you, Len. Thank you for showing every Indian person in Canada that determination, hard work and kindness can help you achieve what you set out to do. Joey Jack Kamloops

A LIFE WELL-LIVED NEVER LOST, CONDOLENCES Editor: Len liked cowboy hats that shaded his whole body on a sunny day. I have known Len and Donna since 1972. I was attracted to his Liberal campaign and his association with Pierre Elliott Trudeau, so I worked on his campaigns to get him elected. When Len spoke about Canada, people in Kamloops saw kindness

in a man whose early life experiences did not treat him so kindly. Like Mandela, he forgave and moved on to blaze a trail with huge footprints all of us need to find in our life. Len did not just speak for First Nations, he spoke for everyone with equal vigor. He gave me a gift three times: his autobiography Breaking Trail and Mack

Bryson’s autobiography A Cowboy’s Life. From reading these two books, one can see why these two men were lifelong friends. The third gift was encouragement to finish my autobiography. Len and Donna lived in Sahali for a time and from their backyard, Len could see when my 90-year-old father was sitting on the porch just out of earshot. Len would walk two

blocks and spend an hour or more with my father, where they just talked. Sometimes they would have coffee and other times something stronger, but always they talked, not about Ottawa, but about personal experiences, lives lived and opportunities made and missed. In Ottawa, Len never lost his gentle nature and respect for the elders. Someone said at Chief

Dan George’s funeral we were fortunate to have such men in our lives. My wife and I are fortunate to have had Len Marchand Sr. in our life. To Donna and the Marchand family — a life well-lived is never lost. Judy and I wish to express our sincere condolences for the passing of a good man. Walter Trkla Kamloops

Memorial service Saturday at TIB Arbour Grounds From A1

“Even in the hospital, people would come in and he had their full life story before they could do anything. He honestly cared about people.” Lori said her family is doing well and surrounded by extended family and friends who are ensuring they are looking after themselves. A memorial service to honour the former MP and senator will be held on Saturday at 10 a.m. at the Tk’emlups Indian Band’s Pow Wow Arbour Grounds. Lori and Len Jr. will read the eulogy, while Shane Gottfriedson, former TIB chief and current regional chief of B.C. for the Assembly of First Nations, will serve as master of ceremonies. Marchand was born in Vernon on Nov. 16, 1933. His life was filled with firsts — he was the first status Indian elected to Parliament and given cabinet posts. Before that, he was one of the first aboriginal students to enrol at UBC. And he was the first status Indian to graduate from a public high school in Vernon — although he also attended residential schools in 1949 and 1950. Marchand also voted in an election in 1958, two years before First Nations citizens were granted the right to vote. “I was in my last year at UBC, living in a boarding house run by the ex-wife of [Haida artist] Bill Reid,” Marchand told KTW during an interview in December of last year. “She was keen on doing the right thing, getting people involved, so she signed me up to vote and I voted.” Marchand’s love of learning saw him graduate in 1964 with a master’s degree in forestry and he started work at the Kamloops Research Centre. As his obituary in today’s edition of KTW notes, “he had a love affair with plant science and was proud to have published peer reviewed scientific papers when he worked for the federal Department of Agriculture and to have been recognized as a distinguished alumni by the faculty of land and food systems for agriculture sciences at UBC.” Marchand was also active on another front — pushing to get his people the right to vote. That passion led to jobs working for cabinet ministers Jack Nicholson and Arthur Laing. By 1968, however, Marchand was thinking about coming home and putting his energy into other areas. A telegram from Sandy McCurrach changed those plans. “He told me to come back and be our candidate,” Marchand said in that December interview. “I talked to Donna and the kids — Lori was in kindergarten and Len hadn’t started school yet — and we decided there was no shame in losing to a guy like Davie Fulton.” Fulton was the longtime Progressive Conservative MP for Kamloops. “So I came back and we won,” Marchand said, something he credits to his strong connections with the agricultural community in the area — and visits Prime Minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau made on Len’s behalf during the campaign. By 1976, Marchand was in cabinet as minister of state for small business — and handed the task of bringing the metric system to Canada. “I was really getting a lot of heat about metric,” Marchand said. “So, I said to Pierre, ‘Give me the word and I can dismantle it.’ But he said, ‘We are a trading nation and one of the last great nations in the world not going metric’.” At one time, Marchand said, he had a letter from then-U.S. president Jimmy Carter confirming the United States would also go metric.

MEMORIES OF MARCHAND

From Ottawa to Kamloops, KTW reporter Andrea Klassen compiled the thoughts of many on the trailblazing former MP and senator, who died on Friday at age 82 • Manny Jules, past chief of the Tk’emlups Indian Band: As a band councillor, Jules first worked with Marchand in the 1970s. He remembers Marchand as a major supporter of the band’s initiatives, particularly during his time in the Senate, when he helped to pass the Kamloops Amendment — a change to the Indian Act that allowed bands to levy property taxes on their reserve lands. The amendment allowed bands to develop properties for lease without losing reserve status. “It wouldn’t have happened without his support, without a doubt in my mind,” Jules said. Without Marchand’s early trailblazing in Ottawa, Jules believes First Nations’ progress would likely have been set back years. “He broke the mould. He ran for public office at a time when it was scorned upon by First Nations to even consider running for public office,” Jules said. “People told you not even to think about it, that it wasn’t our way, that wasn’t our parliament, that wasn’t our legislative assembly. Those kinds of political thoughts were told to you. Those aren’t our institutions, that’s somebody else’s. “And what he chose was to say no, these are ours and we are part of the Canadian federation and we should participate.” • Prime Minister Justin Trudeau: “I learned with great sadness today that Len Marchand had passed away. “Mr. Marchand was a distinguished parliamentarian who held several senior positions, including parliamentary secretary, minister of state, minister of the environment and senator. He was much admired by my father. “A member of the Okanagan Indian Band, Mr. Marchand was a

tireless champion for a stronger role for First Nations, Inuit and Métis in Canadian political life, as well as justice for indigenous peoples. “He received several accolades for his work, including being appointed a member of the Order of Canada and the Order of British Columbia and receiving the Queen Elizabeth II Golden Jubilee and Diamond Jubilee awards. “Mr. Marchand was a trailblazer for indigenous involvement in Canadian politics and a champion of their rights. His legacy will live on in those he inspired and helped. “Len will be remembered for his strong convictions, his legendary sense of humour and his tireless work to make Canada a better place for indigenous peoples.” • Premier Christy Clark: “I was deeply saddened to hear Len Marchand has passed away. Len was a trailblazer by nature. “From high school to his time at UBC to Parliament Hill, Len made history time and time again as the firstever status Indian in his position. “Looking back on a distinguished career in public service, including as a cabinet minister and senator, it’s remarkable to consider that when he was born, First Nations were not even permitted to vote. “Because of the tireless, courageous efforts of Len and people like him, Canada is a very different — and better — place. • Terry Lake, health minister and MLA for Kamloops-North Thompson: “I’ve been so grateful for his mentorship in many ways,” Lake said. “When I ran John O’Fee’s federal Liberal campaign in 2004, Len and Donna were so supportive. I spent time with Len talking about his experience and he gave me great advice on managing a campaign.” Lake said Marchand

in particular focused on the importance of family and maintaining connections while working in politics. “He knew the effect being an MP and being away had on his family and he wanted to be sure I was thinking about that for John and his family,” Lake said. • Sen. Nancy Greene Raine: “He was a gentleman. He was funny. He was one of a kind,” the Conservative senator recalled. While the two were on opposite ends of the political spectrum, Greene-Raine said she was able to get to know the family through her sister, who worked on Marchand’s first campaign before taking a job on his staff in Ottawa. Greene-Raine was struck by Marchand’s warmth and positivity and by how much he cared for others. Of his political legacy, she said: “It’ll definitely be one of showing to Canadians that aboriginal people have a lot to bring to the table and can bridge both communities really well.” • Todd Stone, transportation minister and MLA for KamloopsSouth Thompson: Stone first met the Marchand family as a teenager, during the early days of his political enthusiasm. “He and his wife and friends were the core of the Liberal party back in those days, so as a youngster I connected with them and I remember from the earliest interactions just how encouraging Len was,” he said. Stone noted Marchand blazed trails that would have been impossible only a few years earlier. “First Nations people only received the right to vote in 1960, so he was in the halls of power in Ottawa at a time when he was largely alone,” he said, noting he was impressed from an early age at Marchand’s ability to face racism and

prejudice and continue to accomplish his goals. “He was always so clear about who he was, why he was there, who he was representing and he somehow managed to push through that, all the while keeping a smile on his face — that trademark smile he will long be remembered for,” Stone said. • Mayor Peter Milobar: Kamloops’ mayor never met Marchand in person, but during Milobar’s first run for council more than a decade ago, the former MP was one of those he reached out to for political advice. “He certainly would have had more interactions with my parents than ever with me, but was still willing to spend the time with someone a generation or two removed,” Milobar recalled. “It’s not just me. I’ve heard of others who had those same types of experiences with Len. It’s very sad to hear he’s passed. “He definitely had

a big influence on this community.” Milobar praised Marchand as an example of how politicians ought to conduct themselves and as an important figure on the local and national scale. “He opened the door to First Nations to become elected in all sorts of parliaments and legislatures and councils around the country,” Milobar said. “That cannot be overstated.” • B.C. Assembly of First Nations Regional Chief Shane Gottfriedson: “The British Columbia Assembly of First Nations would like to express our profound sorrow and heartfelt condolences on today’s loss of Sen. Len Marchand, at age 82. “During this time of mourning, our thoughts and prayers are with the late senator’s family, his wife Donna Parr, daughter Lori Marchand, son Len Marchand Jr. and his extended family. “First Nations com-

munities will forever draw inspiration from Sen. Marchand’s lifelong and selfless dedication and efforts to promote a culture of peace, justice and reconciliation.”

Province takes control of assisted dying TOM FLETCHER

BLACK PRESS

Federal government fails to meet court deadline

With the federal law against assisted suicide expiring on Tuesday and a replacement not yet approved in Ottawa, the B.C. government has adopted the latest doctors’ standards as the law until the situation is clarified. New professional standards set by the College of Physicians and Surgeons for assisting a patient to die are to be enforced by regulation until the federal law is clear, B.C. Health

Minister Terry Lake and Justice Minister Suzanne Anton said in a statement issued yesterday. “As laid out in the Supreme Court of Canada’s February 2015 ruling, doctors will no longer be prohibited from providing medical assistance in dying to competent, consenting adults who have a grievous or irremediable medical condition that causes enduring, intolerable suffering,” the statement said.

After being pushed through the House of Commons in an effort to meet the court deadline, the Liberal government’s Bill C-14 was held up in the Senate, with disagreements over assisted suicide for young people and those who are not terminally ill. The B.C. government noted the court decision refers only to doctors. The province is consulting professional organizations for nurses and pharmacists to

Philpott: ‘Variation across the country’ OTTAWA — Health Minister Jane Philpott is telling health care providers gathered in Ottawa that provincial guidelines and regulations on doctor-assisted dying do not provide enough clarity and protection to those who may now be asked to help their patients die. “While I have faith in Canada’s healthcare providers to carry out these responsibilities responsibly and ethically, I believe that regulatory guidance alone is insufficient, given the nature of what you will be asked to do,’’ Philpott said in her speech to the National Health Leadership Conference in Ottawa yesterday. Philpott reminded the room doctor-assisted dying is legal in Canada after the federal government missed yesterday’s deadline the Supreme Court gave them to enact legislation responding to its landmark ruling on physician-assisted death. “Unfortunately, despite tremendous effort, this bill is not yet in place,’’ Philpott said. “You may be asked to do something that has never been expected of you before — to help people end their lives. It’s a daunting prospect.”

Medical regulators in every province have issued guidelines for physicians on providing assistance in dying, based on the eligibility criteria outlined by the Supreme Court. Those rules impose safeguards similar to — and sometimes stronger than — those proposed in C-14. Philpott warned of a patchwork across the country. “There will be variation across the country in the direction being provided,’’ she said. “These are not abstract ideas to me.’ Philpott is also a doctor and addressed the need for better palliative care. She urged doctors to voice support for C-14, which is now undergoing scrutiny by senators. The Senate is expected to hear from a constitutional expert who will say C-14 does not comply with the Supreme Court ruling because it restricts access to people who are already near death. The government is urging the Senate to pass the law quickly, arguing the legislation is urgently needed to protect health care professionals and vulnerable people. — The Canadian Press

permitted to make the decision via video link. The doctor approving a lethal dose of medication must be present during the self-administration or delivery of the medication until death is confirmed. For doctors who object to assisting someone to die, the standards do not require a formal referral, but are required to provide “an effective transfer of care” to another physician.

Expert: Law unconstitutional OTTAWA — Canada’s foremost constitutional authority predicts the federal government’s proposed new law on medically assisted dying will be struck down by the courts as unconstitutional. Peter Hogg — who wrote the book on constitutional law in Canada, a text frequently cited by the Supreme Court — says Bill C-14 is inconsistent with the top court’s landmark ruling known as the Carter decision last year, which struck down the ban on assisted dying as a violation of the charter right to life, liberty and security of the person. The court suspended its ruling, later extended by four months, to give the federal government time to respond with a new law. That deadline passed, with C-14 still under examination by independent-minded senators, many of whom have expressed strong objections that the bill would allow assisted death only for suffering Canadians who are already near death. Medically assisted dying is now legal in Canada, governed by the eligibility criteria set out in Carter and guidelines issued by medical regulators in every province. However, the government is urging the Senate to pass C-14 as quickly as possible, arguing the legislation is urgently needed to ensure strict safeguards to protect the vulnerable.

Final arguments begin in B.C. terrorism trial THE CANADIAN PRESS

VANCOUVER — The lawyer for a man found guilty of plotting to bomb the B.C. legislature says flawed spiritual guidance from undercover police officers lies at the heart of the entrapment case. Closing arguments began in B.C. Supreme Court yesterday for a hearing examining if John Nuttall and Amanda Korody were manipulated into planting explosives on the legislature lawn during Canada Day in 2013. Nuttall and Korody were arrested three years ago following an elaborate undercover police sting operation. Last June, a jury found the pair guilty of conspiring to commit a terrorism act. Their convictions are on hold to give Nuttall and Korody’s lawyers time to argue that their clients were entrapped by police

instructed to do precisely what it was that they ought not to have done,’’ she said. Sandford also raised concerns that police repeatedly told Nuttall his actions were ultimately predetermined by Allah and that he should listen to his heart and follow his feelings. “This was a very dangerous message to send to a target who’s expressing spiritual reservations about a spiritually motivated crime: to essentially say you don’t have free will in the matter. “So, in other words, why waste time thinking about it; it’s all been determined one way or the other,’’ Sandford said. “It was a strategy that had at its goal the directing of Mr. Nuttall away from proper religious inquiry.’’ Closing arguments for both defence and the Crown have been scheduled to wrap up within two weeks.

into carrying out the bomb plot. Nuttall’s lawyer, Marilyn Sandford, told the court police took it upon themselves to provide spiritual guidance and did so in a way that dismissed the concerns her client repeatedly raised over the morality of committing violence in the name of Islam. “It’s absolutely clear they wanted these concerns and qualms to be put aside,’’ Sandford told the court. “That is not only inducement but a highly, highly egregious form of inducement to spiritually vulnerable targets.’’ Sandford pointed to numerous instances throughout the investigation and played in court when she said

undercover officers encouraged Nuttall to direct questions regarding Islam to them and disparaged the authority of mainstream Muslim scholars and imams. She referenced an entry from the primary undercover operator’s log, dated mid-April 2013, which read: “We had a good discussion about religion and his big desire to become my disciple.’’ She pointed to earlier testimony from a religious expert who described elements of Islam being promoted to Nuttall by officers as flawed, and that the police appeared to be discouraging Nuttall from consulting with religious experts. “The undercover operators did and were

Conservative caucus who are considering mounting a bid for the leadership. Three are already registered: Kellie Leitch, Maxime Bernier and Michael Chong. The Tories are scheduled to elect their next leader in May 2017.

OTTAWA — Canada is considering reversing another controversial Conservative foreign policy decision by rejoining a UN convention that fights droughts, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said yesterday. The Harper government withdrew Canada from the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification in 2013, making it the only country in the 190plus member UN not a party to the 1995 treaty. The Conservatives called the decision a cost-saving measure that would spare Canada from participating in what it saw as

a useless “talkfest.’’ But many countries saw it as snub of the multilateral system. Trudeau told the House of Commons yesterday the government will have more to say about the convention on or before June 17, an international day to recognize the need to combat desertification. “We recognize not just the link between land degradation and climate change but also the risks that desertification poses to realizing sustainable development goals,’’ said Trudeau, referring to the UN’s 15-year plan to eradicate poverty. “We are co-ordinating with our inter-

CHANNELING OR CHICANERY?

Theresa Caputo insists her ‘gift’ is real, despite the skeptics CHRISTOPHER FOULDS KTW EDITOR EDITOR@KAMLOOPSTHISWEEK.COM

T

heresa Caputo doesn’t really know what’s going to happen when she appears at Sandman Centre tomorrow night, with some of the thousands in attendance hoping she channels their dead loved ones. Her famous Long Island style will be there — “I can guarantee you I’m going to show up with my hair and my nails done,” she told KTW in an interview.

As for the deceased? Well, that depends on whether you believe the Long Island Medium truly connects with dear old Uncle Roger or is simply a talented cold reader, someone who uses many high-probability guesses to fool a person into believing the medium knows more about a person than they really do. “This is not about people believing in mediums,” Caputo said from Red Deer, where she performed the night before. “My goal for people when they attend my live shows is for you to know there is more to life than this physical world — more importantly, that your loved ones are with you and that connection and that soul bond hasn’t been broken.” Caputo became famous via her Long Island Medium pseudo-reality show, which debuted on the TLC network in September 2011. She is also a bestselling author. Those who follow her show know her story — she was in her 20s when spiritual teacher Pat Longo introduced her to Spirit, an entity that connects Caputo to souls in heaven. Her most ardent fans believe she does indeed communicate with the dead. There are, however, skeptics and a plethora of articles and videos online that purport to shoot down her claims. Theresa Caputo, the so-called Long Island Medium, claims to be able to channel dead people.

Caputo accused of psychic fraud Though some in the Catholic faith may accuse Caputo of committing the sin of necromancy (divination by calling on the dead), Caputo insists she is a practising Catholic and that the parishioners at her Long Island parish support her. But does her bishop have an opinion? “I don’t know,” she replied. “You would have to ask him. I haven’t spoken to my local bishop.” She likewise defends her gift of communicating with the dead as being authentic. “I don’t even know what a cold reading is,” she told KTW. “I don’t know what that means. I just don’t understand it. I don’t even know how this works.” Skeptics and debunkers explain away Caputo’s alleged gift by attributing it to readings — cold (tossing out numerous high-probability guesses and studying body language) and hot (using information from background research) warm and hot readings. The James Randi Educational Foundation was founded in 1996 to help people defend themselves from paranormal and pseudoscientific claims.

“Locally Owned and Operated”

Renowned debunkers such as James Randi and Ron Tebo dismiss Caputo and her ilk as talented carnies, skilled in the art of cold readings but no more connected to the afterlife than a pile of Ouija board games in a department store. “That’s not what I do,” she said with a laugh. “I will never prove or try to defend my gift. That’s not what I’m about. I’m not asking you to believe. People have every right to believe in what they want to. I respect that people don’t understand what I do. That’s not my job. My job is to channel the souls of the departed. If somebody doesn’t want to embrace that, then so be it.” While she claims

she connects with those who have departed and are walking in “God’s white light,” Caputo said she has had otherworldly brushes with malevolent entities. About a decade ago, she said, she was in a home in New York. “I walked into the house and I saw blood splattered all over the walls and I saw a priest standing in the corner,” she said. “It was a beautiful, beautiful home. It was gorgeous, but this is what I saw when I walked in.” She said she later learned four people had been murdered under that roof. “I did see the soul of the person who killed them,” Caputo said. “But I wasn’t able to channel them. I could see and I could feel the presence, but I could not hear or feel any-

The foundation offers a still-unclaimed $1 million reward for anyone who can produce evidence of paranormal abilities under controlled conditions. The foundation awarded Caputo the 2012 Pigasus Award for Performance, which exposes parapsychological, paranormal or psychic frauds. “. . . Making her task even easier still, she never guesses the name or the initials of the deceased,” the foundation wrote. “To ‘validate’ contact, Caputo makes vague references that have the appearance of being specific; special songs, handwritten letters and items of clothing and jewelry. Those read are interviewed afterwards, gushing that they are indebted to Caputo for helping them come to terms with the death of their loves ones.” Caputo said such criticism is out of her control. “If it makes you feel better to talk bad about me, that’s fine,” she said. “But there have been people who don’t want to live any more and they come to a live show, come and have their own personal experience, and after having that, they are able to live their life with peace and joy. “Why would you want to take that from somebody?”

thing he wanted me to because I only channel souls that walk in God’s white light.” What, then, can ticket holders expect when the 49-year-old Caputo (she turns 50 on Friday) holds court at Sandman Centre? “Look, I don’t even know what’s going to happen,” he said. “I don’t know who’s going to get read. I don’t know where I’m going to be in the arena, but people come in all the time and they say, ‘I didn’t know what to expect when I walked into the show, but what I witnesses was absolutely life-changing.’” In Red Deer, Caputo noted, she was all over the arena — in the front, in the back and up the sides of the stands. “It’s wherever Spirit brings me to where I need to be.”

Painting flowers, step by step

KARLA PEARCE

The Creative

EDGE

With all this warm weather and sunshine it’s a wonderful time to capture some of that beautiful floral energy out there. Painting flowers is one of my favourite pastimes. Here is an easy five-step painting anyone can do: • Blue, red, green, yellow, white and black paints are required. • Prime the canvas, painting it white with

a light tint of blue to create a summer sky. effect. Draw the flower with blue paint, starting with a bull’s eye circle on the right side of the canvas and adding eight front petals and smaller petals in behind. Draw a stem that turns into a leaf on the left side of the painting. • Fill in the outer centre and petals with yellow.

• Fill in the tips of the petals and inside centers of the flower with red. • Using green, paint the stem and leaf of the flower. With black, make small polka-dots to define the centre of the flower. Don’t completely cover the yellow and red. • The final touches are the best part. Add yellow dots to the outside centre of the flower

and blue ones to the inside. Add a bit more blue behind the flower to the sky and blend the petals to complete the painting. Painting is fun. Give yourself permission to play and enjoy painting with the whole family. For more, go online to karlapearce.com or call 778-220-2032.

How to fund life’s enjoyments through retirement From exotic vacations to golf-club memberships, everyone’s vision of retirement is different. One thing in common for retirees and those approaching their golden years is the importance of confirming your goals and creating a financial plan to help you reach them. According to a recent TD survey, nine in 10 (92 per cent) Canadian boomer respondents said it’s important for them to take time for life’s enjoyments. Lee Bennett, senior vice president of TD Wealth Financial Planning, said goal-based planning can help fund these enjoyments throughout the retirement years. Bennett offers the following advice:

• Establish your goals: The first step to building a realistic and fulfilling retirement plan is to identify and set goals. Whether your goal is short-term or long-term, identifying milestone targets, such as saving a certain amount of money each month, will help make any goal more attainable. • The road to success: Meeting with a financial planner can ensure you get on the right track to achieve your goals, whether you’re already retired or still a few years away. A planner will work with you to help create a road map that is personalized to how you’d like

to spend your retirement. • Don’t set it and forget it: After building a plan and committing to stick with it, it’s important to review progress on a regular basis and make adjustments along the way. Bennett encourages boomers to make investing in enjoyment a top priority. “From clearly outlining your goals, to staying on track with the help of a financial planner, there are many ways to fund activities you love throughout your retirement years.” newscanda.com

Be senior wise when using that fancy new smartphone Do you remember rotary dials, party lines and payphones? These days, the world is just a touchscreen away. The technology is fascinating, but for seniors especially, it’s important to balance convenience with security and privacy precautions. The following three tips will help you enjoy all the benefits smartphones offer, worry free: • Be app safe: From games and daily planners to health-care and transportation solutions, there are apps for almost any need. But some have been designed to gain access to personal data. Limit risks by first only downloading apps from trusted sources, such as Google

Play and the Apple App Store, and also by choosing strong privacy settings, paying attention to permission setting and disabling tracking features, like GPS, when not in use. And remember to keep your device operating system up-to-date so you have the latest security software. 2. Don’t talk to strangers: Your phone connects you with loved ones, but it can also expose you to scams and online predators. “Criminals often target seniors with text messages, emails and social-media messages promising too-good-to-be-true investments, contests or low-cost medications,” said Shelly Smith, director of Telus Wise.

“Typically, these are supported with professional websites and seemingly legitimate company names, so it’s no wonder they work.” Trivia and other games texted directly to you also pose a threat. Simply opening these can incur major fees. As a rule of thumb, never engage with unknown senders or click suspicious links — and never transfer money to strangers. 3. Protect yourself in case of smartphone loss: Before your smartphone goes missing, you can safeguard your information in a few ways. Invest in a warranty program. Install software that allows you to remotely erase

data — some devices already have this built in. Create strong passwords using acronyms, combinations of letters and numbers, and different cases and special characters. But what if the smartphone disappears? “Immediately contact your phone company,” Smith said. “They can help you find or replace it promptly.” Your smartphone opens up countless possibilities so combine these tips with common sense to stay safe while you stay connected.

Vancouver Whitecaps’ president Bob Lenarduzzi will receive an honorary doctor of laws tomorrow at Thompson Rivers University.

His end of the bargain LENARDUZZI SAYS HONORARY DEGREE FROM TRU ALLOWS HIM TO FULFIL COMMITMENT TO PARENTS MARTY HASTINGS

STAFF REPORTER

T

sports@kamloopsthisweek.com

omorrow at Thompson Rivers University, Canadian soccer legend Bob Lenarduzzi will receive an honorary degree and make good on a deal he made with his parents. When he was 14, Lenarduzzi was invited to leave Vancouver and try out for Reading in England, a great opportunity, to be sure, but one that worried his parents, who immigrated to Canada in the early 1950s so their children could seek better education. “We came to a compromise and I had agreed that I would continue my education through correspondence,” said Lenarduzzi, who was in Grade 9 at the time. “Once I got out of earshot, I never opened the box of books and I just got on with the game.” Things worked out just fine for Lenarduzzi, who went on to earn spots in both the Canadian and U.S. soccer halls of fame, was awarded the Order of B.C. in 2003 and was named one of the top 30 players of the century in the North America, Caribbean and Central America region. Still, throughout it all, the compromise he came to with mother

Clelia and father Giovanni niggled at his conscience. “It’s always been a huge regret, even at this stage,” said Lenarduzzi, who logged 47 caps with Canada and led the Whitecaps to a North American Soccer League (NASL) title in 1979. “There’s no reason why I couldn’t have maintained the education side of my life. I just chose to let the dreams of Wembley Stadium and making a career in soccer get in the way of doing what I should have done, which is continued education on a parallel path.” Joanne Baskerville and TRU director of athletics and recreation Ken Olynyk brought forth Lenarduzzi’s name for consideration for the honorary degree, a doctor of laws, and the university informed him of its decision about three months ago. Lenarduzzi, 61, will speak tomorrow at 10 a.m. at a convocation ceremony for students graduating from the School of Trades and Technology and the Faculty of Science. “Bob’s commitment to sport and the advancement of youth sport in Western Canada is unparalleled,” said Christopher Seguin, vice-president of advancement at TRU. “It’s not just about his legendary Whitecaps’ performance,

it’s about the decades of service he’s given to the province and that embodies what TRU stands for.” The Whitecaps have a prospects academy in Kamloops and Lenarduzzi was in Eastern Canada last week opening several more Caps-affiliated high-performance training centres. John Antulov, head coach of the TRU WolfPack men’s soccer team, runs the Whitecaps’ Kamloops Prospects Academy and was a defender for the Vancouver 86ers when Lenarduzzi managed the Canadian Soccer League team. Lenarduzzi said he feels a kinship with Kamloops’ sizeable Italian-Canadian community and has a relationship with Josh Keller, a former employee of both the Whitecaps and TRU, but that’s just about where the Tournament Capital connections end. The work he does now, overseeing a fledgling Major League Soccer club, is not without stresses, as Lenarduzzi navigates tricky relationships with media and supporters’ groups and aims to bring championships to Vancouver. But he wouldn’t trade it in for anything. And now he can rest a touch easier with a degree hanging from his office wall. “One of my biggest regrets is I didn’t fulfil my part of the deal with

my parents,” Lenarduzzi said. “I know this is an unorthodox way to get a degree, but for them — and neither of them are alive — I’m sure they’ll be looking down thinking, ‘OK, well, at least you followed through.’”

What about the Caps?

The Whitecaps are in danger of being ousted in the first round of the Amway Canadian Championship, with the Ottawa Fury, a NASL team, holding a 2-0 lead on Vancouver heading into the second leg, set to be played tomorrow night at BC Place Stadium. “We need to go into the game understanding 90 minutes is a long time and to not throw caution to the wind early,” Lenarduzzi said. “It’s like the second half of the game. They’re two-nil up. We’re going to be playing an almost entirely different squad.” Questions about the club’s dedication to winning the Voyageurs Cup arise each year when regular starters are sidelined to make way for younger, less-experienced players. “We saw last year the celebrations that took place when we

won,” Lenarduzzi said of jubilant scenes inside BC Place Stadium last August when the Caps claimed their first-ever national title with a victory over Montreal. “It’s very significant to the supporters, especially to the supporters’ groups, and we’re mindful of that. The problem we have is you can’t just keep playing players over and over again. That’s going to impact your team during the latter part of the season, when you’re ideally heading toward a playoff berth. You have to manage minutes.” The club also needs to have a look at young talent and the Canadian championship doubles as a great proving ground, said Lenarduzzi, who expects to leave Kamloops tomorrow afternoon and be at BC Place in time for the match. “It is important to us,” he said. “I can assure the supporters of that.” KTW asked Lenarduzzi for his thoughts on the Whitecaps’ season thus far, the .500 record, the red cards, the suspensions and more. His answers are available online at kamloopsthisweek.com.

Royal Cup has new home ADAM WILLIAMS

STAFF REPORTER

adam@kamloopsthisweek.com

The Royal Cup will return to the Kamloops pavement next weekend, marking the seventh season for the annual road hockey tournament on the city’s North Shore. But, for the first time in its history, the tournament won’t be played on its namesake — Royal Avenue. Organizers Jamie Rose and Andrew Horton have elected to move the action to a nearby parking lot — that behind Sorriso Restaurant and Deli, located at 177 Tranquille Rd. — after it was decided the tournament’s former home on the corner of Royal Avenue and Ross Street was no longer suitable. Rose, whose team is looking to win its third straight title, said

changes to the landscaping of a neighbour’s property, along with the addition of a fence, spurred the move. “We can’t really use it in the same way,” he said. In past years, organizers blocked off a section of the street, building two rinks complete with wooden boards, snowfencing-turned-glass and hockey nets. Rose said it was disappointing to see the play moved from the only home it has ever known, but added there will be positives to playing in a parking lot — smooth surfaces and a few less rocks, to start. “It was a real authentic roadhockey experience before — this is different,” Rose said. “But, it should let the guys play a little better hockey.” The Royal Cup drew 16 teams and more than 100 players to

Ross and Royal last year — the largest turnout in tournament history. Teams were replete with former junior players — including Kamloops Blazers alumni — and headlined by current Carolina Hurricanes forward Riley Nash, who is expected to be in attendance again this year. Rose said numbers should be the same in 2016. Organizers hope to match the $5,000 donation they made to Kidsport last season from the proceeds of the event. Spectators will be able to watch from the Army, Navy and Airforce Veterans of Canada Club patio, adjacent to where the two rinks will be set up. Both Sorriso and the club will be serving food and beverages throughout the day. Action gets underway at 11 a.m. on Saturday.

BIG

OF THE MONTH!

Shani Bouwer

How and why did you become involved with Big Brothers Big Sisters? I wanted to find a way to get involved in my new community and figured what better way than volunteering. I have always enjoyed spending time with kids, coaching them, and taking care of them, so this volunteer opportunity seemed to be the perfect fit. What do you enjoy about the In School Mentoring Program? I really enjoyed the In- School Mentoring Program because it allowed me to get involved and be a positive influence in a child’s life while being busy with school as it is only a 1 hour commitment, or should I say a 1 hour break from school for us both! How often do you see your Little and what do you do? I saw my Little once a week for one hour each time. We had lots of fun drawing, coloring, molding clay, playing board games, painting nails, playing outside, decorating sugar cookies, and sharing common loves, hobbies, and interests with one another. How is this relationship fitting into your life? This relationship, although a seemingly small commitment and impact, became a weekly occurrence to look forward to. I found when I missed out on meet-ups I was missing the fun we had together when something got in the way or when school was out. Who would you recommend this program to? I would recommend this program to anyone with a busy schedule and who isn’t quite sure they have time but would like to make a difference and have a positive influence in the lives of school-aged kids. How has your Little benefitted from the program? I think my Little benefitted from this program by having the opportunity to connect and confide in someone outside of family and friends, just having a break from her regular school day, allowing her to get creative, soak up some sunshine, and learning how to build relationships with new people and see the potential for growth in these new relationships. Why do you think that someone should volunteer in this program? I think someone should enroll in this program because it is something that requires little input for a wonderful output where both little and big are able to reap the benefits! Is there anything else you would like to add? I would highly suggest this program to anyone who loves to just hang out with great kids! The smallest action of giving back always leaves you, along with the people who you’ve touched, with a smile on your face and happiness in your heart!

GREEN GOALIES IMPRESSING IN STANLEY CUP FINAL

DO YOU HAVE AMAZING LOCAL PHOTOS?

WIN A $100 GIFT CARD

JONAS SIEGEL

THE CANADIAN PRESS

SAN JOSE — Twenty-nine starts. Before the start of the regular season, that was the combined NHL experience of the two eventual starting netminders of the Stanley Cup final, with all 29 of those starts owned by Martin Jones of the San Jose Sharks. Jones and Matt Murray, his counterpart on the Pittsburgh Penguins, seem to be proving in these playoffs that experience may not be imperative to success. Neither had started an NHL playoff game before this spring and yet both have shined brightly for their respective teams, especially Jones so far in the final. “I think there’s times where you can lean on experiences and then there’s times where it works if it’s just your first time,’’ Sharks centre Logan Couture said. “I think both goalies have played well.’’ Rarely do two starters on this stage come with as little experience, both goalies starting in the NHL for the first time this season. The most recent such case was 2010 when Antti Niemi and Michael Leighton squared off in the Cup final. Both endured a rocky experience, especially Leighton who was pulled twice in the Flyers six-game loss to the Blackhawks. Cam Ward was really the last goalie to shine on this stage with so few NHL games of experience. He helped Carolina to a Cup as a rookie in 2006. “I think sometimes no experience is better than some experience,’’ said Sharks backup goaltender James Reimer. “You have no level of failure. It’s like your first season. There’s no expectations.’’ The quality of the team, too, could insulate an inexperienced goaltender, he said. “If Murray was to play on a team that wasn’t as much of a contender as Pittsburgh then experience would play a bigger part because there’d be more chance of failure,’’ said Reimer. “The more experience you have the better you are at dealing with failure.’’ An undrafted netminder out

San Jose Sharks’ netminder Martin Jones makes a glove save. Jones and Pittsburgh Penguins’ goaltender Matt Murray, both of whom lack in playoff experience, were holding their own through three games of the Stanley Cup final.

of North Vancouver, Jones kept his team close amid wobbly efforts in the first two games of the final, and was nearly unbeatable during a 42-shot barrage in Saturday’s Game 3. The 26-year-old had faced 39 shots more than Murray heading into Game 4 of the final, played last night after KTW’s press deadline, final and was boasting a hearty .938 save percentage. “He’s been so good for so long,’’ Couture said before Game 4. “Doug [Wilson] made a great move going to get him because he’s been awesome for us.’’ Wilson, the Sharks general manager, flipped a first-round pick and a prospect to Boston for the rights to Jones, quickly signing him to a three-year contract. It was a gamble, given that Jones had been only a backup to Jonathan Quick in Los Angeles, but one that’s eventually proven worthwhile. “You never know how a guy is going to handle the starting job playing every night until you throw him into it,’’ said Sharks

coach Pete DeBoer. “That was the million-dollar question.’’ A 22-year-old rookie, Murray has displayed the same coolness, a prerequisite seemingly to thriving on this stage with little experience. A star in the minors, the Thunder Bay native has not exactly come out of nowhere, though like Jones his performance on the most pressurepacked stage of the Stanley Cup playoffs has cooled the supposed need for experience. Murray has made more starts in the playoffs (19) than he had during the regular season of his first NHL season (13). He became the Penguins’ starter only because of Marc-Andre Fleury’s late-season concussion, performing so well this spring that Fleury’s remained relegated to the bench. Solid under limited duress in Games 1 and 2, Murray struggled a bit in Game 3. Joel Ward’s game-tying blast in the third period managed to sneak through his body, while Joonas Donskoi’s attempt in overtime somehow evaded him high.

Ali scripted funeral plans in ‘The Book’ BRUCE SCHREINER AND CLAIRE GALOFARO THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Muhammad Ali and his innermost circle started a document years ago that grew so thick they began calling it “The Book.’’ Its contents will soon be revealed. In the pages, the boxing great planned in exacting detail how he wished to say goodbye. “The message that we’ll be sending out is not our message — this was really designed by the champ himself,’’ said Timothy Gianotti, as Islamic studies scholar who helped for years to plan the services. “The love and the reverence and the inclusivity that we’re going to experience over the coming days is really a reflection of his message to the people of planet earth.’’ The 74-year-old three-time heavyweight champion wanted the memorial service in an arena. He wanted multiple religions to have a voice while honouring the traditions of his Muslim faith. And he wanted ordinary fans to attend, not just VIPs. He was never downcast when talking about his death, said Bob Gunnell, an Ali family spokesman. He recalled Ali’s own words during meetings planning the funeral: “It’s OK. We’re here to do the job the way I want it. It’s fine.’’ The final revisions were made days before Ali died Friday at an

Arizona hospital, his family by his side. For years, the plan was to have Ali’s body lie in repose at the Muhammad Ali Center in Louisville, Gunnell said. That tribute was dropped at the last minute because his wife, Lonnie, worried it would cause the centre to be shut down and knew people would want to

gather there in grief. In its place, a miles-long procession was added that will carry Ali’s body across his beloved hometown. It will drive past the museum built in his honour, along the boulevard named after him and through the neighbourhood where he grew up, raced bicycles and shadowboxed through the street.

Weightlifting fed says 20 positives in 2008, 2012 Olympic retests PABLO GORONDI

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BUDAPEST — Twenty positive tests, including medal winners, were among the retested doping samples from weightlifters taken at the 2008 and 2012 Olympics, the International Weightlifting Federation said yesterday. In a statement sent to The Associated Press, the IWF said it was informed by the International Olympic Committee of 10 cases from the 2008 Beijing Games and 10 from the 2012 London Games. It said the Beijing tests were “presumed’’

positives that still require B sample analyses. The 10 from London were described as confirmed positives, or “adverse analytical findings.’’ The IWF said the cases include medal winners but did not give any names or nationalities. The federation said it would “proceed to the provisional suspension of the athletes as soon as the IOC procedures (are) concluded.’’

The 20 cases account for a large part of the 55 total positives which the IOC has reported so far, including 32 from Beijing and 23 from London. The IOC is retesting samples to catch cheats who might be competing at the Rio de Janeiro Olympics in August. Meanwhile, Kazakhstan’s Olympic committee said its athletes recorded five positives in similarly retest-

ed A samples from Beijing and London and had sent representatives to Switzerland to attend analysis of the B samples. The athletes were not named and it was not immediately clear in which events they competed. The Central Asian nation has faced repeated doping scandals in recent years, particularly in weightlifting and cycling. Separately, the Russian Olympic Committee says two of its athletes’ B samples came back negative. They belonged to race walker Denis Nizhegorodov and rower Alexander Kornilov.

In a city accustomed to capturing the world’s attention for just two minutes during the Kentucky Derby each year, Ali’s memorial service on Friday looms as the most historic event in Louisville’s history. Former presidents, heads of nations from around the globe, movie stars and sports greats will descend upon Louisville to pay final respects to The Louisville Lip. “It’s been a really bittersweet time for our city,’’ Mayor Greg Fischer said. “We’ve all been dreading the passing of the Champ, but at the same time we knew ultimately it would come. It was selfish for us to think that we could hold on to him forever. Our job now, as a city, is to send him off with the class and dignity and respect that he deserves.’’ President Bill Clinton, a longtime friend, will deliver the eulogy at the funeral at the KFC Yum! Center, where the 15,000 seats are likely to be filled. Others speakers will include representatives of multiple faiths, including Islam, Judaism, Christianity, Buddhism, Mormonism and Catholicism. They will be followed by Ali’s wife, daughter Maryum Ali, actor Billy Crystal, sportscaster Bryant Gumbel, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and King Abdullah II of Jordan. The day before his star-studded funeral, members of Ali’s Islamic faith will get their chance to say a traditional goodbye to Ali. A Jenazah, a traditional Muslim funeral service, will be held at

Freedom Hall in Louisville at noon Thursday, Gunnell said. It will be open to all. They chose the venue because it seats 18,000 and holds historical significance for the hometown hero. Ali fought, and won, his first professional fight there in 1960. Gianotti said yesterday the Muslim funeral service was “critically important for the global Muslim community to say goodbye to their beloved champ.’’ The inner circle that helped the Alis with funeral preparations included his attorney and a business associate, Gunnell said. The group presented “The Book’’ — about two inches thick with funeral details — to Ali in 2010, he said. “Muhammad, over the course of about a week, went through the entire plan and signed it and certified it and approved it,’’ Gunnell said. Ali’s burial will be in Cave Hill Cemetery in Louisville, the final resting place for many of the city’s most prominent citizens of the 19th and 20th centuries. The luminaries include Colonel Harland Sanders, the founder of Kentucky Fried Chicken. Sanders’ granite memorial features a bust of the goateed entrepreneur. Ali’s gravesite will far more subdued, in contrast to his oversized personality and life. A modest marker, in accord with Muslim tradition, is planned, his attorney, Ron Tweel, said Monday. He would not say what words will be inscribed on the marker.

Thunder GM confident Durant staying in OKC CLIFF BRUNT

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OKLAHOMA CITY — Thunder general manager Sam Presti sounds confident that Kevin Durant will remain with the team. Durant, a four-time NBA scoring champion and the 2014 MVP, will become a free agent on July 1, and he has not made it clear whether he will stay. Presti said he’s looking forward to Durant’s decision. “We have the opportunity to sit down with him and talk about what looks like an incredibly bright future together,’’ Presti said yesterday. “I think you

have to embrace that. You have to really lean into that in an excited way without knowing what the outcome might be. But I don’t see any reason to shy away from that.’’ Players such as Boston’s Isaiah Thomas and Philadelphia’s Joel Embiid have tweeted their desire for Durant to join them. Presti won’t be among those making a sales pitch — he figures all the necessary advertising on his end has occurred during Durant’s impressive run with the franchise. The team has reached the Western Conference finals four of the past six years, including this season,

and reached the NBA Finals in 2012. “When those conversations occur, it’s really just a continuation of a dialogue that’s been going on for eight or nine years,’’ Presti said. “It’s a chance to reflect and recognize that relationship and continue the conversations that we’ve had on going.’’ Social media has been going crazy over the possibilities, but the cerebral Presti is calm, as usual. “We can’t make that decision come faster or slow it down, so we may as well enjoy the season we just had and allow him to do the same,’’ Presti said.

Sr., B.Sc., M.Sc., LL.D. (Hon.), P.C., O.C., O.B.C. November 16, 1933 - June 3, 2016

It is with deepest sadness that the Marchand family announces the peaceful passing of the Honourable Leonard Stephen Marchand Sr., husband, father, grandfather, politician, scientist, advocate, mentor and friend. Len had a lasting impact on all who knew him. He was a proud member of the Okanagan Nation. In 1968, only eight years after First Nations people earned the right to vote in federal elections, Len became the first status Indian to be elected to Parliament. From 1976 to 1979, he became the first person of First Nations’ ancestry to serve in the federal cabinet, first as Minister of State for Small Business and later as Minister of the Environment. Len served in the Senate from 1984 until 1998. He has received the Order of Canada, the Order of BC, the Queen’s Jubilee medal, a National Aboriginal Achievement Award and an Honorary doctorate from Thompson Rivers University in recognition of his service to his people and to Canada. Len was a humble man who came from humble beginnings. Family always came first. The love of his life was his wife of almost 56 years Donna. He loved and was incredibly proud of his children Lori and Len Jr. (Laurie), his grandchildren Carling, Erin (Mitch), Caitlin, Miles, Noah and Keegan, his sisters Margaret, Joan, Pauline and Alice, his brother Raymond and his many, many nieces and nephews. He also loved

EACH LOSS Each loss is very different, The pain is so severe. Will I ever stop missing This one I loved so dear? Good times we had together, The moments that we shared We didn’t have to tell each other How much we really cared. 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.

and was proud of his parents Joseph and Agnes, and his sisters Mildred, Josephine and Theresa, who predeceased him. Len was a trailblazer. He graduated from Vernon High and earned a Bachelor’s degree in Agriculture from UBC and a Master’s degree in Range Management from the University of Idaho when few First Nations people had done so before him. He had a love affair with plant science and was proud to have published peer reviewed scientific papers when he worked for the federal Department of Agriculture and to have been recognized as a Distinguished Alumni by the Faculty of Land and Food Systems for Agriculture Sciences at UBC. As a politician, he demonstrated that his people could and should play an active role in the political life of this country. Len’s greatest achievements were in advancing the interests of his people, but he represented all of his constituents equally and always did what he honestly thought was best and right. Always true to himself, Len valued integrity above all else. This inspired the admiration, respect, loyalty and love of his family, friends, colleagues and staff. We will all feel his absence deeply. A public Celebration of Len’s Life will be held at the Arbour at the Tk’emlúps te Secwepemc Powwow grounds (Kamloops, BC) at 10 a.m. on Saturday, June 11, 2016. A private Graveside Service will be held in Vernon, BC, the following day. The family extends their heartfelt thanks to Dr. Sigalet and the other exceptional doctors, nurses and staff who cared for Len during his stay at Royal Inland Hospital. Limlempt and kukstemc to the Tk’emlúps te Secwepemc for offering the use of their beautiful facility for the celebration on June 11. Len always said “Education is the key to the future.” If family and friends desire, donations to the Thompson Rivers University Foundation in Len’s memory would be appreciated.

Susan Bottos Susan Bottos passed away suddenly on June 3, 2016 due to injuries sustained in a motor vehicle accident. She was 65. Sue was born on November 13, 1950 in Montreal to Clayton and Margaret (Aiken) Riddell. She was the oldest of three children and spent her childhood in Toronto before moving to Vancouver as a teen. Sue loved the West and did not return to Ontario with her family, choosing instead to graduate from high school and attend UBC where she completed her Bachelor of Education degree. She was a free spirit travelling through Europe before settling in Kamloops and taking a teaching position at Parkcrest Elementary. It was here that she met her future husband Ken. She would later go on to teach at Heffley Creek Elementary. During her teaching career she touched many lives and she is fondly remembered by her students and their families. It was during her teaching career she formed many life long friendships. Sue and Ken were married on August 31, 1978. They had three children Jenny, Eric and Kara. Sue was fortunate to see the birth of three of her grandchildren. They were lucky to spend many hours with their beloved Gran. Being a mother and grandmother was Sue’s greatest joy in life. Her love for her children and grandchildren was evident to all that knew her. She was the best Mom and Gran, always supporting and cheering them on. Family was everything to her and she showed that love daily in countless ways. Sue enjoyed Friday afternoon mah jongg, curling, kayaking with friends, watching Grace ride their horse Jasper, gardening, cooking and above all, spending time with her family and very dear friends the Baileys. She was predeceased by her father Clayton in 1999. She is survived by her mother Margaret, husband Ken, daughters Jenny (Shane) Cassidy and Kara (Rob) Lemire, son Eric and his partner Chelsea Vickers, brother David Riddell, sister Jan Riddell, grandchildren Grace, Cole, Lochlan and the soon to arrive “Peekie”, as well as many nieces and nephews. In lieu of flowers, please make donations to a charity of your choice. It was Sue’s request that there be no service. Arrangements entrusted to First Memorial Funeral Services Kamloops (250) 554 2429 Condolences may be left in Sue’s Memory at www.firstmemorialkamloops.com
