Accused: ‘I love them and I’m sorry’ TIM PETRUK

STAFF REPORTER

tim@kamloopsthisweek.com

DAVE EAGLES/KTW Al Deacon, owner of Fox ‘N Hounds Pub and the Sahali Liquor Store, shows the selection of Kamloops and B.C. wines on the rack at his store. The Overwaitea Food Group will today ask city council to reconsider its decision to not allow its Save-On-Foods store in Sahali to sell B.C. wines. Deacon appeared before council last month, urging the city to reject the grocery store’s application.

WHAT DRIVES DEACON IN WINE BATTLE? DALE BASS

STAFF REPORTER

dale@kamloopsthisweek.com

Al Deacon said he didn’t plan on becoming the point person in the wineselling debate in Kamloops. It’s disheartening, he said, to read some of the things people have been saying about him, “that they’ll never darken the door again,” as he continues to speak out for private retail outlets that sell wine.

The reason he was the spokesman when Save-On-Foods asked city council to let it sell VQA wines is because he has always stepped up to advocate on behalf of his industry, Deacon said, adding he wasn’t at the May council meeting on his own. There were other private liquorstore owners there who couldn’t get into the council chambers to be seen standing behind him or speaking with him. It’s an industry Deacon believes in,

SERVING WESTERN CANADA SINCE 1929

one in which he has grown up. He jokes he was conceived on a pool table. His family owned hotels in the Williams Lake area and, at one time, a family hotel was also home for the Deacon family. He went to work at the age of 15 for Overwaitea — ironically, it’s the company that owns the Save-On chain — and continued there until he was 20, when he went to work in the family business.

The mother of a Salmon Arm man standing trial in Kamloops for a murder hung her head in the courtroom yesterday as jurors watched a video recording of him apologizing to a detective after his arrest and saying how much he loves his family. Her son, now 24, is alleged to have shot a romantic rival while a senior in high school. His identity is protected by a court-ordered publication ban because he was 16 at the time of the murder. His 25-year-old ex-girlfriend is also charged and due to stand trial in November. Similarly, she cannot be named because she was 17 at the time of the slaying. Tyler Myers, 22, was shot three times — twice in the back and once in the back of the head — in a Salmon Arm schoolyard on Nov. 21, 2008. His killing has been described in court as a love triangle turned deadly. Jurors have been told both Myers and the male accused were involved romantically with the female accused. Crown prosecutor Bill Hilderman said the two accused hatched a plan to borrow a .22-calibre rifle from a friend and kill Myers. Hilderman said the female accused lured Myers to the Bastion elementary schoolyard, where the male accused was hiding in a wooded area with the rifle. When he had a clear shot, Hilderman said, the male accused fired a bullet into Myers’ back. Jurors were told the male accused then emerged from the wooded area and fired two more shots into Myers’ body, both at the direction of the female accused.

Keg-size dispute will force restaurant to dine and dash on Kamloops

Despite being “pretty proud of our product,” a developer who invested $40 million into revitalizing Lorne Street is out of the restaurant business due to a disagreement with the Keg franchise. “We were pretty proud of our product, we were pretty proud of our people,” said Fred Marin, associate of Culos Development Group. “We could just not come to terms with the continuation of the Keg.” Kelowna-based Culos Group — which built 151 condominium units and revitalized the historic CN Railway Station building in downtown Kamloops — will shutter the upscale steak eatery on Aug. 31. Sixty full and part-time employees are expected to lose their jobs. Mike Culos and Marin own the franchise location and building. Marin told KTW a 10-year-franchise agreement expired three years ago and they have not since come to new terms. He said new branding came into effect and, despite remaining busy, the Kamloops location is an “old-style” Keg. “If you go to the Keg in Kelowna or any of the new ones in Vancouver, there’s a marked difference in the branding they have,” Marin said. “They were wanting us to either find another location or build another Keg or quit. They didn’t feel like the Keg at CN Station

represented the brand anymore.” Location, parking and configuration of the building were an issue with branding, Marin said. The CN Station, for example, has multiple floors and most new Kegs are one level. “Those are all factors in us not continuing and it’s part of the reason the franchise agreement wasn’t renewed,” Marin said. “We were not prepared to do the things required to bring it up to Keg standards and the Keg was not prepared to allow us to continue without doing those upgrades.” Marin said Culos tried negotiating for three years. “There was no meeting of the minds,” he said. Culos began running the restaurant 13 years ago after leasing the property from the City of Kamloops at next-to-no cost with the commitment of redeveloping Lorne Street. Condo units now run from Sandman Centre all the way to the CN Station and Culos invested about $3-million to bring the CN Station to heritage standards. “The place was a bordered-up mess,” Marin said. “It had to be completely rebuilt from the inside out.” Culos spent about $40 million in total on Lorne Street, Marin said. The Keg was the only restaurant in its portfolio. The building is now for sale or lease. The company is keeping busy developing phase four of the Landmark buildings and will be staying out of the restaurant business.

“We’re not restaurant operators, we’re developers,” Marin said. KTW made multiple calls to The Keg’s head office, which is located in Richmond, and no one could speak to a previous media release before press time. The statement paints a different picture. It says the Keg operated in Kamloops for more than 40 years and “is always looking to expand and will continue to search for more opportunities to reopen a Keg in this area in years to come.” “We are deeply appreciative of the patronage of our incredible guests at the Kamloops location and we hope to see them one last time before we close,” said Jamie Henderson, vice-president of business development Keg Restaurants. “We want to recognize and thank our incredible employees who have helped us create so many special memories over the years for our Kamloops guests.” Those with gift cards can use them at the Kamloops location before it closes or at any other location across the country. The restaurant chain has locations across Canada (except in Prince Edward Island) and in five U.S. states. It trades on the Toronto Stock Exchange under The Keg Royalties Income Fund and closed Friday at $18.05 per share. The Keg is in the two-storey historic brick train station, which was completed in 1927 by the Kamloops firm of Johnston and Company.

NO MORE LINEUPS AS SD73 MOVES TO RANDOM DRAWS

Summit Drive in Sahali, are the only schools of choice with waiting lists. “The real solution is down the road,” he said, noting the district is looking at possibly re-opening Happyvale elementary in Brocklehurst to serve as a third French immersion elementary school. Happyvale is now home to the BIG Little Science Centre. This year, 172 students at Lloyd George came from the North Shore. DeBruijn said the district would also like to know why parents send their kids to French immersion schools and is planning on creating a survey. “Is that because they want French for their children or because of another reason?” deBruijn asked, suggesting the decision to enrol in a school of choice could be based on location of the school as it relates to family activities and movement through the city. Under the new registration procedures, parents can apply for their kindergarten-aged kids to attend the schools of choice, but if the number of applicants exceeds available spaces, random, supervised draws will take place. Waitlists will be assembled based on the following priority order: • Catchment area children with siblings already registered at the same school for the following year; • Catchment area children; • Transfer requests from non-catchment area children. The catchment area for the Kamloops school of the arts and Bert Edwards school of science and technology is the entire Kamloops-Thompson school district. The two French immersion schools have their own catchment areas and parents must register according to the area in which they live. More information on those catchment areas can be found online at sd73.bc.ca, though students from the east part of the city and north of the Highway 1 bypass attend Lloyd George, while South Sa-Hali generally takes kids from south of the bypass.

There will no longer be a need for sleeping bags, heaters and snacks to last parents through the night. The Kamloops-Thompson school district is doing away with first-come-first-served lineups for schools of choice and replacing the registration process with random lottery draws. The board of education was expected to adopt a motion at its meeting in Barriere last night to ratify the change. For the 2017-2018 school year, schools of choice registration for kindergarten and Grade 1 will take place before regular kindergarten registration. Schools of choice in the Kamloops-Thompson school district include two for French immersion (Lloyd George and South Sa-Hali), Kamloops school of the arts, Bert Edwards school of science and technology, the Montessori program at Aberdeen elementary and several academies, including the hockey program at Valleyview secondary and numerous similar academies at Brock middle school. “This is in response to the camping out,” school district Supt. Karl deBruijn said, referring to the practice of parents spending hours lined up outside French immersion schools the night before registration day. “This is a suggestion that came from some people.” However, deBruijn added, the new method of registering will not solve the problem of the high demand for spaces in the city’s two French immersion elementary schools.

Crown nearing end of witness list From A1

Both accused were interviewed by police in the days after Myers’ death and denied any involvement. They became suspects three weeks later after police obtained a warrant allowing them to intercept text messages. The investigation slowed, court heard, until the female accused became the target of an RCMP Mr. Big undercover operation in 2012. Jurors have listened to an audio recording of the male accused admitting his involvement in the murder to an undercover police officer posing as a gangster on the promise that his powerful criminal organization could clear him of any suspicion. In court yesterday, jurors watched

an interview conducted at the Salmon Arm RCMP detachment hours after his arrest on Nov. 5, 2012. In the video, RCMP Sgt. Rob Burrett repeatedly told the male accused how “devastated” his parents were to learn he’d been charged with first-degree murder. “I love them and I’m sorry,” the male accused told the detective on video. “I just don’t want them to think I’m a bad person.” In the video, Burrett went on to describe his interactions with the accused male’s family. The accused male’s mother, seated in the front row of the courtroom gallery, sat bent over with her head hanging down as the detective talked on video about a meeting he was going to have with the family.

On Friday, the friend who loaned the two accused his father’s rifle to kill Myers said the plan was hatched over lunch the day of the murder. “They were going to have a chance to take Tyler’s life,” the witness, whose name is also protected by a publication ban, said in court. The accused later returned the rifle and gave the witness a bag of pot, court heard. The witness pleaded guilty in 2014 to being an accessory after the fact and was handed a two-year conditional sentence with no jail time. The trial, which began last week, had been slated to last about a month, but the Crown is nearing the end of its witness list. It is not known if the defence will call any evidence.

LOCAL NEWS At the May 17 city council meeting, Trish Morelli, executive director of the Kamloops Wineries Association, argued in favour of Save-On-Foods being allowed to sell B.C. wines. Morelli said the licence Save-On has is not new, noting the parent company purchased the Discover Wines ‘ specialized VQA BC wine licence and wants to simply relocate it a few feet from its original location in the same strip mall.

PRIVATE LIQUOR STORES FACE SALES RESTRICTIONS

From A1

In 1983, when the family bought the Fox ’N Hounds at Sahali Mall, Deacon started out as the janitor. Three years later, when Sunday opening hours were approved, he moved up to become a bartender and he’s been involved since. Twelve years ago, the Sahali Liquor Store was created. At 6,000 square feet, Deacon said, the space is larger than he needs since the government reneged on its statement that private liquor stores would be able to sell supplies to restaurants. Before that change of heart, he bought a delivery truck and was geared up to start selling the product he has to buy from what is, in essence, another competitor — government liquor stores. It’s a struggle to stay financially viable, he said, because profit is dependent on volume of sales. “If someone steals a 1.75-millilitre bottle of Crown Royal, we need to sell seven bottles to get back to the break-even point,” he said. Although the provincial government allows grocery stores with proper licences to sell B.C. wine, Kamloops council amended its bylaw to not allow new liquor sales within one kilometre of exisiting liquor stores without going through a variance application.

Last month, council rejected Save-On-Foods’ variance application to sell wine at its Sahali store. At today’s council meeting, Overwaitea Food Group, Save-On’s parent company, will ask council to reconsider that decision. The reason Deacon and other private store owners are fighting Save-On-Foods’ proposal to sell B.C. wines boils down to the fact they feel it is not a level playing field. Private stores must pay for product before they can have it, Deacon said, whereas Save-On would be selling wine on a consignment basis, paying the bills after the product sells. Stores like his can’t sell anything food-related beyond chips, peanuts and meat jerkies. During the Christmas season, he said, the store brings in egg nog, but could be challenged by a liquor inspector for being in contravention of its liquor licence. “All of us liquor retailers would love to package and promote a $3.99 Costco pizza along with your 15-pack of Bud buy, but we are unable to,” Deacon said. What he does have is a large selection of B.C. wines. Linda Coles, manager of the store, said they no longer keep their VQA (Vintners Quality Alliance) wines separate, but have them mixed in with all the wines they carry from wineries in the province.

She said when people visiting the city come in to buy a bottle, they don’t usually ask for the VQA section, but rather for the location of B.C. wines and, in particular, local wines. The fact they carry so many local and B.C. wines is one of the reasons Deacon is disappointed in the public backlash he has received for his stance. He hasn’t heard from any of the local wineries since the government changed introduced legislation allowing grocery stores to sell VQA wines. The Kamloops Chamber of Commerce also spoke out, asking council to reverse its decision without ever contacting him, Deacon said. He’s also surprised Ken Christian voted in favour of Save-On’s request since the now-city councillor was for years the director of health protection with Interior Health Authority. Deacon noted many health authorities have expressed concerns about the prevalence of alcohol in the province. The IHA, for example, wrote in October 2013 it believed in “reducing availability of alcohol through local regulation if the density of alcohol outlets has become associated with excess health or safety problems.” The Fraser Health Authority wrote about research showing “increased outlet density for sale is associated with higher rates of hospitalization and crime.”

Another $5M for Better at Home program DALE BASS

The country’s health-care system, designed in the 1960s, simply doesn’t reflect today’s realities, said Health Minister Terry Lake. It was created with an eye on younger families and hasn’t adapted to the changing needs of the population, the Kamloops-North Thompson MLA told people attending the third annual Seniors Symposium sponsored by Oncore Seniors Society, the

Centre for Seniors Information and the City of Kamloops. Lake was at the Friday gathering at the Sandman Signature Hotel and Conference Centre to announce a $5-million commitment for the Better at Home program that helps seniors continue to live in their own homes and communities. It’s the kind of service the health-care system needs, Lake told the crowd, because it responds to the desires of seniors to maintain their independence “so they don’t have to go into the hospital for every problem that comes along.

“That’s the shift that has to come, home and community care.”

MISSING WOMEN REQUIRE ACTION

ven as Splatsin members searched for Caitlin Potts last week, the fate of the woman last heard from Feb. 22 is unknown. But what is certain is the number of murdered and missing indigenous women across Canada is a disgrace. “We are in a national crisis,” said Shane Gottfriedson, regional chief of the Assembly of First Nations and former longtime chief of the Tk’emlups Indian Band. According to the Native Women’s Association of Canada, between 2000 and 2008, aboriginal women and girls represented about 10 per cent of all female homicides in Canada. However, aboriginal women make up only three per cent of the female population. The Trudeau government is preparing for an inquiry into murdered and missing indigenous women, and while that is an important step forward, just that alone won’t solve anything. There needs to be a fundamental shift in thinking about violence against all women, native and nonnative, and that we as a society find such incidents unacceptable. There must also be a concerted effort among law enforcement to work with First Nations communities, and for governments at all levels to address poverty and other social issues in aboriginal communities. There are no easy solutions to eliminating violence against women or ensuring no other families experience what Caitlin Potts’ family is going through, but that’s no excuse. We must take action. — Vernon Morning Star

A summer of good reads

amloops kids are invited to get lost in an adventure, a mystery or a deep belly laugh this summer, delivered through thousands of quality books for children, courtesy of the Bright Red Book Bus. Every week in July and August, the shiny red bus travels to neighbourhood schools and parks, loaded with shelves of wonderful books, where children may take and keep a book to read — or they can return it the next time the bus visits. The Bright Red Book Bus reading program is the result of a multiagency partnership launched in 2014 between School District 73, Boys and Girls Club of Kamloops, Literacy in Kamloops, TNRD Library and the Stollery Charitable Foundation. The focus of the program is to provide as many interesting and exciting titles for children as possible. Giving kids easy access to fun and engaging reading material is the best way to develop their love of reading. If children choose their own books, they are much more likely to read and reread those titles. The program also encourages parents and caregivers to read with their children. The ultimate hope is that by making many different kinds of books available across a variety of levels, more children will naturally gravitate toward the enjoyment of reading and become lifelong readers. As a teacher, I was often asked by parents if their child should read during summer. I always responded with an emphatic “yes!” Children who read as few as six books through the holidays help maintain their reading skills

achieved during the preceding school year. Research also suggests children who read books independently during the summer increase their reading fluency and become more confident in their abilities when they return to school in September. The success of the Bright Red Book Bus has exceeded expectations. During the past two summers, thousands of people visited the bus, including many children who were not able to attend the TNRD Summer Reading Program. In that way, the TNRD Library and the bus program work collaboratively to promote each other and to encourage children to read independently. Additionally, free children’s books can be found in brightly painted red bookcases in locations across Kamloops, including the Y and ASK Wellness, as part of a larger literacy initiative. As a multi-partner program that is dependent on donations and funding, we were thrilled to receive more than 10,500 donated books this past year, thanks to events such as Heap the Honda Children’s Book Drive and funding for the purchase of new books from the Stollery Charitable Foundation.

The response from our community has been extremely positive and private donations of quality and gently used books are ongoing. Since its inception, more than 5,800 free books have been distributed to children and 565 books have been returned. If you are interested in making a donation or contributing to the success of the program, go online to bgckamloops.com or contact the Kamloops Boys and Girls Club at 250-554-5437. All donations are appreciated and will assist children in improving their literacy skills. This summer, the Bright Red Book Bus makes stops at the following locations between July 4 and Aug. 25: • Mondays: Arthur Stevenson, 10 a.m. to noon; A.E. Perry, 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. • Tuesdays: Kay Bingham, 10 a.m. to noon; Parkcrest, 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. • Wednesdays: Arthur Hatton, 10 a.m. to noon; Bert Edwards, 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. • Thursdays: Marion Schilling, 10 a.m. to noon; Stuart Wood, 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. • Fridays: South Sa-Hali, 10 a.m. to noon. The bus also visits the following parks from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.: Riverside Park (July 1, 15, Aug. 5), McDonald Park (July 8, 26, Aug. 12), McGowan Park (July 22), Prince Charles Park (July 29, Aug. 26), Westsyde Centennial Park (Aug. 19).

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

CANADA GETS SHAFTED BY RULES OF NAFTA Editor: A few days ago, Kamloops-South Thompson MLA and Transportation Minister Todd Stone took city council to task for rejecting Save-On Food’s application to sell B.C. wines at its Sahali store. Stone was properly motivated in his argument to refute the claims made by vested interests, including various foreign ambassadors and the U. S. Wine Institute. Council was wrong and naïve to make any reference to NAFTA as a reason Canadians should or should not follow a particular course of action. This agreement is a travesty and hindrance to good business in Canada and anyone who uses it as a guide does so in ignorance of the facts. Firstly, NAFTA allows any U.S. citizen from any state in the union to carry out business as they see fit in Canada. But we do not have the same advantage. If we want to sell our products in the

U.S., we must file an application with each and every state authority — all 50 of them. There is no free trade here. Secondly, U.S. firms have violated the agreement with Canada on numerous occasions and failed to comply with rulings in our favour. The World Trade Organization has ruled American firms owe Canadians billions of dollars for softwood lumber violations and others, but they consistently refuse to pay the fines. They don’t care because no one can make them comply — certainly not our government. Thirdly, NAFTA controls our environment. Canadian government health agencies have found the anti-knocking compound we use to replace lead in gasoline is a deadly carcinogenic. We removed lead because it was a source of cancer and we replaced it with a deadlier compound. When we attempted to remove the com-

pound, the company in Virginia that produces the chemical sued us under the rules of NAFTA. Our government paid the $20-million fine for offending the Ethyl Corporation. And we continue to breath a polluted atmosphere that is likely four times worse than lead. Finally, the structure of the NAFTA costs us about 500,000 jobs a year. Foreign interests virtually control our economy thanks in good part to NAFTA. By the way, it includes our air, our water and all our resources in its jurisdiction. So, the question is: Why would any sensible Canadian care one hoot what the U.S. thinks about our remotely possible infringement on the questionable agreement? Stone should keep it up as he might just be on the righteous track. Ken Blawatt Kamloops

O CANADA — LEAVE ‘SONS’ IN AND TAKE ‘GOD’ OUT OF SONG

Editor: Re: changes to the words to our national anthem, O Canada: In the line “In all our sons command,” the word “sons” simply denotes all those born into Canadian citizenship. It is not sexist anymore than the word “Man” in the quote “Man’s inhumanity to Man makes thousands mourn” excludes women from the possibility of being inhumane. If anything needs to be changed, I would suggest the line “God keep our land, glorious and free” ascribes to an out-

sider being the responsibility of keeping our land free. It would be better to take that responsibility ourselves . Accordingly, the line should read, “Let’s keep our land . . .” It is only the citizens of the country who can assume this responsibility, not some outside agency. Unfortunately, the federal Liberal government is in the process of eviscerating our citizenship and immigration laws to the detriment of our nation. Ray LePage Kamloops

Robinson defends his hunt CAM FORTEMS

STAFF REPORTER

cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

A trapper and hunter in the Nicola Valley testified in provincial court Friday that he was lawfully hunting cougar when he was stopped during a B.C. Conservation Office patrol. Kim Robinson is charged under the Wildlife Act with hunting a bobcat without a licence and using dogs in the hunt. He is also charged with failing to properly mark his licence to hunt bear. The Nicola Valley outdoorsman gained national fame in 2008 when he tracked down Allan Schoenborn following a 10-day manhunt. Schoenborn killed his own three children, but was later found not criminally responsible. A conservation officer testified earlier in the trial that Robinson told him his

hounds were “on a bobcat.” Robinson did not have a licence to hunt bobcat. The Crown has argued dogs cannot be used in the act of trapping. Robinson, who runs three traplines, testified in his own defence that he was hunting mountain lion (cougar) on Jan. 3, 2015, and had a licence to do so. “I said [to the conservation officer], ‘I’m lion hunting and trapping.’ His answer to me was, ‘You’re sure you’re not on bobcat?’ I said, ‘So what if I am?’ There’s so much ambiguity in the law.’” While Robinson and another witness for the defence testified they were hunting cougar with the dogs, the lifelong hunter believes, nonetheless, he is legally able to trap bobcat using his dogs. The Crown asserts dogs can only be used in hunting, not on a trapline. “Is it your belief you can trap with your hounds?” asked his lawyer Kevin Church.

Robinson said he has always believed he is within the law to do so, but it has not been tested in court. “There has to be clear legislation,” he said. Robinson frequently interrupted Crown prosecutor Catriona Elliott during crossexamination, prompting a warning from Judge Stella Frame to “can the attitude. KIM ROBINSON “I told you to answer questions, not ask them,” she said. The trial in Kamloops provincial court will continue at a later date.

For the second time in a week, Kamloops Mounties used a Taser to subdue an out-of-control man on city streets. Staff Sgt. Edward Preto said officers on patrol downtown Friday night came across a man swinging a large wooden walking staff at the corner of Seymour Street and Sixth Avenue.

Preto said the 46-year-old man arrived in Kamloops recently from the Lower Mainland is known to police for having a record of violence, weapons possession and drug use. “The words that the male was yelling at a pedestrian led police to believe the male was in an altered state of consciousness,” Preto said.

championing the values that bind us in our common humanity.” Marchand died on June 3 at age 82. He 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. Both children spoke at the service. “He made everyone feel special and he treated everyone with equal respect and dignity,” Lori said. As she told KTW following her father’s death: “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.” Len Jr. said his father often spoke of his concern his work in politics was taking away from

time with family, but the family knew the work being done was paramount in importance. Marchand was born in Vernon on Nov. 16, 1933, and was a member of the Okanagan Indian Band. Its chief, Byron Louis,

also spoke on Saturday: “Len went to the highest places of power in Canada, but always stayed grounded in our community and people.” From Ottawa travelled Carla Qualtrough, federal minister of sport and persons with disabilities, who conveyed a message from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Len Marchand Sr. was remembered Saturday as about 500 people attended his memorial service at the T’kemlups Indian Band Pow Wow Grounds Arbour. Under grey skies, family, friends and politicians gathered to share their memories of the former MP and senator from Kamloops. “Len Marchand earned his place in history as a champion of democracy,” said Shane Gottfriedson, the current Assembly of First Nations B.C. regional chief and former TIB chief who was master of ceremonies for the service. “In face of great adversity, he persevered and was steadfast in

in the cabinet of Justin Trudeau’s father, prime minister Pierre Trudeau, in the 1970s. In a letter read by Qualtrough, Trudeau wrote: “Len’s contribution to Canada will ensure his legacy will live on. His tireless advocacy on behalf on indigenous people rightly earned him great respect and Len will forever deserve accolades for his trailblazing role to be the first federal minister to be of First Nations descent.” Sen. Nancy Greene Raine said Marchand was “a beacon to those in his cherished community that he served with complete selflessness,” while Kamloops-South Thompson MLA and Transportation Minister Todd Stone added: “It’s an honour to be asked to say a few words about Len, but an even greater honour to have known him.” Kamloops-North Thompson MLA and Health Minister Terry Lake told the crowd of meeting Marchand in 2004, when Lake was running John O’Fee’s federal Liberal campaign. Lake noted Marchand’s lifelong love of science and the knowledge that lent to Marchand’s time in politics. Marchand graduated in 1964 from UBC — where he was one of the first aboriginal students enrolled — with a master’s degree in forestry and he started work at the Kamloops Research Centre. As his obituary noted: “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.” And, in continuing the memorial service’s theme of family connection, Lake said he will always remember Marchand talking about the need to maintain a strong family bond under the pressures of political life.

Assisted dying bill need not comply with Supreme Court SO SAYS JUSTICE MINISTER JODY WILSON-RAYBOULD poses’’ behind the government’s decision to restrict the right to an assisted death to those who are near death. Whereas the blanket ban on assisted dying had only one purpose — to protect the vulnerable who might be induced in moments of weakness to end their lives — the paper says the proposed new law is aimed at pursuing additional objectives: to ward against the “normalization’’ of suicide and to counter negative perceptions of the quality of life of the elderly, ill or disabled. Consequently, the paper

maintains, limiting assisted dying to those who are near death is “fully consistent’’ with the charter of rights, even if it is much more restrictive than the eligibility criteria set out by the Supreme Court in Carter. The Supreme Court directed that medical assistance in dying should be available to clearly consenting, competent adults with “grievous and irremediable’’ medical conditions that are causing enduring suffering that they find intolerable.

OTTAWA — Canada’s top Mountie said the tough terrain of the southwestern Philippines may make it difficult to find the killers of two Canadian hostages, but it won’t prevent the ongoing effort to bring them to justice. RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson’s commitment was affirmed yesterday by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau following the death of Canadian Robert Hall, who had been held hostage by Abu Sayyaf since

the murders, meaning the perpetrators could one day face justice in Canada, he added. Trudeau said Canada holds Abu Sayyaf fully responsible for Hall’s death, even as the government continues to seek formal confirmation. “We are more committed than ever to working with the government of the Philippines and international partners to pursue those responsible for these heinous acts and bring them to justice, however long it takes,’’ Trudeau said.

Trudeau has steadfastly refused to entertain the thought of paying ransom to hostage takers. In the wake of Ridsdel’s execution, he said Canada would never pay a ransom for the hostages in the Philippines, and last month persuaded leaders of the other G7 countries to reiterate their opposition to paying ransoms. Yesterday, he repeated his belief that paying ransoms would put more Canadians in danger as terrorist groups look to kidnap citizens.

OTTAWA — Jody WilsonRaybould says the government’s proposed new law on assisted dying does not need to comply with the Supreme Court’s landmark ruling on the issue. A background paper sent by the justice minister to all senators argues the constitutionality of Bill C-14 will not be determined by a simple comparison with the top court’s Carter decision, which struck down the blanket ban on medical assistance in dying. Rather, the paper argues it will involve an assessment of the bill and the “new and distinct pur-

Weapon used in mass shooting restricted in Canada The semi-automatic rifle used in Sunday’s deadly mass shooting in Florida is classified as a restricted weapon in Canada and most people can only use it at a gun range. The AR-15 is a civilian model of the M16 rifle used by the U.S. army and has been used to carry out other mass slayings in the past, including the 2012 killing of 20 children in Newtown, Conn. One of the top-selling rifles in the U.S., the AR-15 is also popular in Canada, according to Ontario provincial police. But while purchasing one doesn’t

Maze Runner report finished VANCOUVER — WorkSafeBC said an actor on the Cache Creek set of Maze Runner: The Death Cure was seriously injured because the film production company failed to ensure workers’ safety. A report by WorksafeBC states Dylan O’Brien’s injuries occurred after an action sequence was changed. but not discussed with people on the set before cameras started rolling. After the incident in March, 20th Century Fox said O’Brien was immediately transferred to a Vancouver hospital and that production on the film would be shut down while he recovered. A nine-hour inspection was completed in May, resulting in a report that was redacted to withhold the names of people involved. It states Fox US Productions 49 contravened a section of the provincial Workers’ Compensation Act. The breach occurred during the filming of a planned and rehearsed sequence, the report said. O’Brien was hit by a car and suffered multiple injuries. WorkSafeBC has ordered the company to prepare a notice of compliance report by tomorrow, outlining the steps to be taken to correct the infraction. — The Canadian Press

That’s in part because the patent for the rifle, which was owned by Colt, ran out years ago, allowing other companies to make their own versions, he said. “It’s very popular,’’ Ridout said. “Especially since the patent ran out, there’s lots of variations of it now.’’ Prices listed on various Canadian gun store websites ranged from around $700 to several thousand dollars.

The RCMP said there are only a few purposes for which individuals can obtain a restricted firearms licence, “the most common being target practice or target shooting competitions, or as part of a collection.’’ “In limited circumstances, restricted firearms are also allowed for use in connection with one’s lawful profession or occupation, or to protect life,’’ the force’s website says. Still, the AR-15 — a brand name for that particular style of rifle — is widely available and in demand, said Insp. Steve Ridout, a spokesman for Ontario’s Chief Firearms

hen Jon Flahr started filming BMX videos in high school, he never expected it would launch his future career. “I definitely didn’t see what path I’d end up taking,” he told KTW. “I’m sure I would be excited.” The 31-year-

old who hails from Kamloops took his passion to Victoria, made connections that led to freelancing gigs and, eventually, began working in the heart of Vancouver’s film industry. Now it’s both his day job — he edits, writes and directs commercials and web content for Nora Vero Videos — and something he pursues in his spare time. His latest gig, Girls Vs. the City, recently received $10,000 from Telus to create a pilot

the housing market in Vancouver. The idea was selected as one of the top 15 finalists in the Storyhive competition. They’ll develop their pitch — once it’s all shot, Flahr will build it all into a cohesive story — and vie for the most votes to earn them the $50,000 top prize. It’s an exciting opportunity for Flahr and one he recommends for anyone looking to break into the film scene. Flahr entered the

same competition in the past with a short documentary on Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. It didn’t win, but Telus funded it anyway. “Telus ended up giving us more money outside of the competition because they really liked our concept and our show,” Flahr said. “They ended up giving us funding for two additional episodes.” Eastside Stories is on Telus Optic TV and the episodes are also

Flahr said traditional television is becoming “more and more rare” and predicts a full transition away from the traditional model within a decade. “Even with Netflix and Telus Optic TV, it’s kind of all going toward on demand,” he said. “You don’t have to wait until 5:30.” While Flahr is busy building his career in Vancouver, he still gets back to Kamloops from

GRADUATION

SPECIAL Avec le Soleil Sortant de sa Bouche is performing at Zack’s Coffee, 377 Victoria St., on Sunday night. The show starts at 8 p.m.

Montreal group has 1960s pop influence JESSICA WALLACE STAFF REPORTER jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com

t’s been called afro-kraut trance, experimental, avant-garde and deconstructed space rock — but Sebastien Fournier isn’t sure how to describe his band’s sound. “I don’t know,” he told KTW in a phone interview from his home in Montreal. “Upbeat, space pop?” That description comes from the synth arrangements and lengthy tracks in which Avec le Soleil Sortant de sa Bouche bases its music, what Fournier compared to 1960s pop. “The arrangements keep changing like in pop music, but it’s on a much slower time scale,” he said. That length is where “space” comes into play, while his former descriptor jives with the imagery evoked from the band’s name.

In English, Fournier said it means “the sun coming out of it’s mouth.” “It just sounded good. It’s a happy image, it’s positive,” he said. “The world would be a better place if there was more positiveness.” When KTW caught up with Fournier, he had been busy working at a music festival. Beyond the band, he also works as a sound engineer. It’s meant switching gears — the band hadn’t rehearsed when KTW spoke to Fournier — before hitting a busy stretch on the road, which begins today in Sudbury and includes a show in Kamloops on Sunday night. The Quebec native is looking forward to the trip, having never been west of Calgary. “It’s probably going to be my favourite moment on the road,” he said. “I’m not too excited for the Prairies.” Despite the Quebec roots, there won’t be a language barrier at the show,

Fournier said. “I work in English most of the time,” he said. It’ll be “high energy”, he said, and when Avec le Soleil wraps up at the end of the month in Toronto, the band will refocus its energy on the release of its next album. Zubberdust was released in 2014 and the group began working right away on the next album. It won’t come out until 2017, however, because Fournier wants to ensure the music can be pressed to vinyl for the release party. “I’ve seen so many release parties without the [vinyl] record,” he said, noting it takes a least six months. “I like to prepare.” The Sunday show is at Victoria Street and Fourth Avenue and starts at 8 p.m. Tickets are $8 in advance from the venue or Barnacle Records, 290 Third Ave., or $10 at the door.

PLAYCATION

Food truck festival will satisfy your appetite Every playcation needs something to satisfy the appetite. This week, the first Kamloops Food Truck Festival will do just that. Local and visiting food trucks will descend on the Tournament Capital for the inaugural event that will raise money for a worthy cause — the Kamloops Therapeutic Riding Association. The festival will be held on Friday, June 17, from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. just off Aviation Way in Brocklehurst. Admission will be by donations, with all proceeds going toward the association’s program. Parking will be free. The Kamloops Therapeutic Riding Association was formed in 1988 and is a non-profit charitable organization that provides therapeutic horseback riding to individuals with disabilities. In addition to its programs for people with physical and psychological disabilities, the association also offers equine-assisted therapy lessons to youth at risk in Kamloops. To get to the festival, drive west on Tranquille Road as if you are going to Kamloops Airport. The festival will be off Aviation Way, one street past Crestline Street. The food trucks will be cooking up a storm right beside the baseball diamond.

Smoke show

Hot Nite in the City Show and Shine and Ribfest return in August Ribfest is back for its fifth edition this summer. Running from Aug. 5 to Aug. 7 in Riverside Park, Ribfest is a growing attraction and the Daybreak Rotary Club of Kamloops’ biggest fundraising event of the year. It attracts upwards of 60,000 people for a weekend of live music and rib-tasting. Ribbers hail from as far away as New Mexico and as close as Vancouver. Teams will compete for first and second place, as well as best sauce, to be judged by a panel of local celebrities. Attendees can vote for the People’s Choice Award. Vegetarians can enjoy corn on the cob

and salad options. The 2012 inaugural Ribfest was a resounding success, raising $40,000 for Kamloops charities. Last year, it raised a record $95,000 for various youth organizations in the city. With an ultimate annual fundraising goal of $100,000, Ribfest grows each year. Hot Nite in the City’s annual show and shine event will simultaneously take place downtown, making it convenient to stroll through the hot rods on Victoria Street on Saturday before grabbing a hot rack of ribs down at the park. The show and shine attracts upwards of 350 classic cars from Northwest

Washington, B.C., Alberta and Saskatchewan. Ribfest organizers also co-ordinate with the car show to give guests a way to hit up both events at once with a pancake breakfast and some Hot Nite wheels on display to round out the weekend festivities on Sunday. Similar to previous years, there will be live music from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. A large kid zone will be set up with bouncy castles, various booths and special entertainment for children. The kid zone is free, but donations to the Rotary Club are encouraged so it can bring money back into the community.

STAFF REPORTER

sports@kamloopsthisweek.com

tan Kato doesn’t do much in the way of exercise in between games and rarely does he stretch before trotting out onto the

diamond. Baseball came naturally to him when he won two Interior Baseball League Championships with the North Kamloops Mohawks in the 1950s. Softball with his new team — the Coffin Dodgers — isn’t much different for the 85-year-old, five-tool player. “I don’t do much of anything else,” said Kato, who paused during an interview to watch teammate Rick McArthur snag a fiery ground ball at the hot corner and gun the runner out at first base. “It’s just perfect for a guy my age to come out here,” said Kato, the Thompson Shuswap Seniors Slo-Pitch League’s oldest player. “It’s a blessing. It’s the only thing that I do.” One diamond over from him last Thursday at Charles Anderson Park, engaged in a game of her own with the Kamloops Expros, was Ella Lavery, who, by the way, is not yet 82. “I’m 81 — let’s not push it,” said Lavery, responding with a laugh to KTW’s incorrect assumption. “I enjoy ball, but I enjoy the camaraderie of it. I feel great. We’re very supportive of each other.” Neither Kato nor Lavery were aware the media would be distracting them from balls and strikes last week. For that they could thank Norio Sakaki. “He dragged me into this,” Kato said. “He’s always up to something.” Sakaki, still in his youth at 78,

DAVE EAGLES/KTW

Ella Lavery (above) is 81 and still catching for the Expros and 85-year-old Stan Kato (right) is a utility player for the Coffin Dodgers, who are still well above ground and playing in the Thompson Shuswap Seniors Slo-Pitch League. Kato and Lavery are the league’s eldest players.

said there is never a struggle for numbers on the Coffin Dodgers. “It seems like they all want to play for this team,” he cackled. “And it’s kind of funny because Rick McArthur is general manager of the Schoening funeral home. You have turnover. Old guys retire and new ones come in. I don’t know what I’d do without ball. It’s really something, the friendships

you make throughout the years.” There are five Kamloops teams playing in the regional seniors’ slo-pitch league — the Coffin Dodgers, Expros, New Horizons, Silver Fox and Old Stars. Two Salmon Arm outfits, Almost Angels and Vintage, and the Sorrento Spooners round out the eight-team league, which features men 55-and-over and

women 45-and-over. The season begins at the end of April and wraps up with a year-end tournament in July. Standings are not kept — “That doesn’t matter,” Sakaki said — but competition on the field gets heated and, make no mistake, these folks can play. “To have Stan play at that age, that’s kind of incentive for us to keep going,” Sakaki said “I don’t golf, I don’t fish, but I love playing ball and I look up to Stan and say, ‘Holy [crap]. He’s 85.’ “He takes line drives I would never be able to get — Snap! Catch! Just like that. Most guys would dodge it. He plays catcher, pitcher, first, second . . . everywhere.” Lavery sat in the dugout with a pencil and clipboard, watching intently the action in front of her and keeping score as her teammates hit the sticks. She paused briefly to reflect, when play allowed it. Thirty years ago, when she first started playing, arrangements were made with her boss at the jewelry store, the schedule adjusted to make time for ball. “I was still working then and she was quite accommodating,” said Lavery, whose timetable is a touch less busy these days. “Now, I have four children, seven grandchildren and one great-grandchild. I enjoy it and my kids encourage me to carry on as much as I can.” After three outs, Lavery exchanged her clipboard for a catcher’s mitt and raced toward home plate.

Now on the GO

“Her husband, Gerry, died a few years ago,” Sakaki said. “They always came out and played together. “Ella’s one of the oldest. I buggered up my shoulder, so I only play half-an-inning per game. That’s enough for me. “She plays two games, seven innings each game. That’s a lot of throwing. She’s good, I’m telling you.” Kato was inducted to the Kamloops Sports Hall of Fame in 2013 on the back of his exploits with the Mohawks, a team comprising many JapaneseCanadians who relocated here after the Second World War. Sakaki, an organizing force in the local sports community for the last 50 years and a longtime proponent of the city’s JapaneseCanadian community, joined Kato in the Hall this year. They each have so many stories to tell, but last Thursday morning, it was all about enjoying each other’s company in the moment. “We’re just here to have fun,” Kato said. “You just play and do your best. It’s just good times.”

Olynyk looks forward to extensive CIS rebrand ADAM WILLIAMS

STAFF REPORTER

adam@kamloopsthisweek.com

Canadian university athletics may be sporting a new look when action begins in the 20162017 season. An extensive rebrand, including logo and name changes, was among the developments to come out of Canadian Interuniversity Sport’s (CIS) annual general meeting and conference in Toronto this week, according to Thompson Rivers University athletic director Ken Olynyk. The CIS is the national governing body for university sport in Canada and oversees the Canada West Universities Athletic Association (CWUAA) — of which the Thompson Rivers WolfPack is a member — the Ontario University Athletics (OUA), Réseau du sport étudiant

du Québec (RSEQ) and Atlantic University Sport (AUS). “I don’t believe it will stay called the CIS, but I’m not sure what it will called,” Olynyk told KTW from Toronto. “Probably the biggest part of the rebrand is to bring the four associations — the Atlantic, the Quebec, Ontario and Canada West — all pulling in the same direction so that we start to look at the CIS as who we are, rather than four regional associations.” A handful of other items were discussed over the four days of meetings and presentations, Olynyk said. The national body is also looking at how to grow corporate sponsorship, how to ensure schools are compliant with recruitment and eligibility requirements and how to increase the relevance of university sport in Canada. “If I was to try and sum it up,

I would say that one of the big messages that we received over the entire time is that we want CIS and we want Canadian university sport to have relevance and to make that relevant we have to work together to make that happen,” he said. The governance of the national body will also be operate differently moving forward, with the CEO and board of directors managing the association at the recommendation of its various committees, rather than its member schools debating and voting on changes. Overall, Olynyk said it was a productive week and TRU should be able to benefit from changes both in the short and long term. “I’m really excited about it,” he said. “I really like the direction [of the CIS]. I really like where we’re going.”

PITTSBURGH — When the Pittsburgh Penguins won the Stanley Cup in 2009, a dynasty appeared to be in the offing. It didn’t quite work out that way. Injuries and inconsistent postseason play sent the franchise into a full-fledged identity crisis. The long, seemingly interminable wait for Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin to bookend the championship they helped capture seven years ago came to a blissful, euphoric end on Sunday night in San Jose. Their six-game triumph over the Sharks in the final capped a meteoric six-month sprint under Mike Sullivan, whose arrival in mid-December provided the wake-up call the talented but erratic roster desperately needed. “It’s not an easy win in this league,’’ Malkin said. “Every team in the league deserves to win. We play against San Jose and they haven’t won in 25 years. It’s not easy.’’ Maybe, but for the Penguins the path might be smoother than most. The group that poured over the boards and onto the ice when the horn sounded at the end of a 100-game plus marathon that spanned from September to June appears to be well-appointed for the future thanks to a series of moves by general manager Jim Rutherford to build around his two stars. Oddsmakers made Pittsburgh an early favourite to win it all again next year, heady territory considering there hasn’t been a repeat champion in nearly two decades. Then again, there’s reason to be optimistic the run at the top that seemed a near cer-

Kris Letang won the Stanley Cup with the Pittsburgh Penguins on Sunday. The Pens appear to be in good position to contend for the Cup in the years to come.

tainty in 2009 could still come to fruition, if later than expected. The core of Crosby, Malkin, forward Phil Kessel and defencemen Kris Letang and Olli Maatta are all 30 or under and all signed through at least 2022. Goaltender Matt Murray — whose 15 wins in the playoffs tied an NHL rookie record — turned 22 last month. Young forwards Bryan Rust, Conor Sheary and Tom Kuhnhackl are in their mid-20s. Carl Hagelin, Nick Bonino and Patric Hornqvist will be back. So will Sullivan, who began the season moulding prospects for Pittsburgh’s American Hockey League affiliate in Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. He ended it posing at centre ice with his sport’s biggest trophy as the centerpiece after

taking the pieces given to him by Rutherford and creating a relentless, swarming team that often tilted the ice for long stretches. “We felt as though, if we were a team that could play fast in every aspect of the game, it could be our competitive advantage on some of our opponents,’’ Sullivan said. “I thought Jim Rutherford did a tremendous job in acquiring some guys along the way that enhanced that speed for us.’’ The only real questions heading into the off-season surround goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury and forward Matt Cullen. “It’s a great year,’’ said Malkin, who welcomed a son last month. “I have lots of emotion, I’m glad the season is over like this. It’s going to be a great summer.’’

Henderson pinching herself after major win DONNA SPENCER

THE CANADIAN PRESS

The magnitude of Canada’s most significant golf victory since Mike Weir won The Masters in 2003 was still sinking in yesterday for Brooke Henderson. Phone calls to her parents, responding to a stream of congratulatory text and Twitter messages — including one from Weir — and a road trip filled the hours after her first major win Sunday at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship. The 18-year-old from Smiths Falls, Ont., birdied the first hole of a playoff to beat world No. 1 Lydia Ko of New Zealand at the Sahalee Country Club east of Seattle. From three sand saves, to a 90-foot eagle putt on No. 11, to

getting out of tree trouble for par on No. 18, Henderson was a study in resilience and shot versatility in a 6-under final round. The victory propelled Henderson into the No. 2 spot behind Ko in the world rankings. It also pushed Henderson’s season earnings to over US$1 million. With a lot more golf to play in 2016, including three more majors and the Olympic Games, the Canadian has set her sights on overtaking Ko. “This is huge momentum for sure,’’ Henderson told reporters yesterday morning from Portland, Ore., on a conference call. “Definitely a huge confidence booster. To get that world ranking up to No. 2 is kind of surreal, kind of unbelievable, but I still have one more spot to go.’’

Obituaries & In Memoriam Barbara Margaret Marjory Davis Born July 9, 1935 in Montreal, Quebec and died peacefully on June 4, 2016 after a sudden illness. Barb is survived by her brother Geoff (Kim) and sister Pamela (Dennis) Peacock, nephews Gary (Pam) and Ian (Megan), nieces Melinda (Tom) Williamson and Andrea, and numerous grandnieces and nephews, and one newly arrived great-grandniece. She was predeceased by her parents, Eric and Kathleen, her brother Rick and her nephew Jim (Kathryn). As a child, Barb lived in Montreal, Sarnia, Edmonton, Winnipeg, and Vancouver with her family, but settled in Kamloops in 1953. She started working at the law firm now known as Fulton & Co. in 1954, first as a stenographer, and later as the corporate records manager, until her retirement 41 years later. She loved her work and her work colleagues and took tremendous pride in running a tight ship. In her younger years Barb enjoyed annual vacations in Hawaii with her parents and Pamela, sipping margaritas and soaking up the sun. Her nieces and nephews all have unforgettable memories of trips with Barb to the Enchanted Forest and for the girls, to McLeod, the Davis family ancestral home, and the Calgary Stampede. Barb was a lifelong Canucks, Lions and Blazers fan. She belonged to PEO and Beta Sigma Phi and was an avid bridge player. Through these pursuits she made many dear friends. Physically limited by polio as a child and more so as she aged, Barb lived her life fully, though vicariously, through her nieces and nephews, grandnieces and grandnephews. Her home was filled with cards, photos, mementos and letters from her family and those close to her and it was clear that she cherished these memories. Barb loved it when Pamela came up from the coast for visits and the two shopped and cavorted. Pamela is at least partially responsible for Barb’s massive wardrobe and shoe collection (and vice versa). Barb could regularly be found with Geoff cruising Aberdeen Mall and having a coffee at Blenz. Having Geoff “drive” her wheelchair was always hair-raising for Barb, and shoppers were no doubt amused by their banter and her frequent admonishments for how Geoff manhandled her wheelchair and her. She loved her siblings, despite her grumblings, and they loved her and did much to make her life as comfortable and fulfilling as possible. Barb will be remembered for her sharp wit and mind, her generosity and her indomitable spirit. She will be missed. Thank you to Barb’s physician, Dr. Jeevyn Chahal, for her care over these last difficult years. In lieu of flowers, donations to Royal Inland Hospital Foundation (http://rihfoundation.ca/ ways-to-give/memorials), where Barb received such excellent care over the years, would be greatly appreciated by Barb and her family There will be no service, but we ask that all of you that knew Barb take a moment on July 9th, 2016, her birthday, to reflect on your memories of her and, perhaps, raise a glass of sherry (her favourite) in her honour.

She Walks in Beauty LORD BYRON

She walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies; And all that’s best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes: Thus mellowed to that tender light Which heaven to gaudy day denies. One shade the more, one ray the less, Had half impaired the nameless grace Which waves in every raven trees, Or softly lightens o’er her face; Where thoughts serenely sweet express How pure, how dear their dwelling place. And on the cheek, and o’er that brow, So soft, so calm, so eloquent, The smiles that win, the tints that glow; But tell of days in goodness spent, A mind of peace with all below, A heart whose love is innocent!

It is with great sadness to announce the passing of Norma on May 28, 2016 at the Kamloops Hospice peacefully surrounded by her loving family. Norma was born September 28, 1934 in Calgary, Alberta. Her family moved to Lynn Valley, North Vancouver where she grew up which included being May Day Queen. Later she met the love of her life Ernest Wittal and they were married on April 17, 1954. Both their sons Doug and Tom were born in Lynn Valley. In 1960 the family moved to Mabel Lake, BC and they purchased the Mabel Lake Resort with Ernie’s sister Elsie and her husband Victor Ring which they operated for a few years. Norma and Ernie’s 3rd son Jerry was born in Enderby in 1962. The family eventually moved to Kamloops and settled on Dallas Dr. which was their home for many wonderful years. Norma is predeceased by her husband Ernie and is survived by her sons Doug (Mona), Tom (Uli) and Jerry (Dorothy) as well as her grandchildren Wayne (Danielle), Cassie (Andrew) and Brittany (Harley) and great-grandchildren Mia and Maddox. Norma loved the outdoors (spending time at Shuswap) and fishing was one of her favourite activities as well as bowling and playing cards with her friends and neighbors in Dallas. She was very proud of her grandchildren and recently her great-grandchildren Mia and Maddox. She will be forever in our hearts and sadly missed.

She was a gentle, kind, intelligent woman with a deep love and respect for nature, and a gift for music and spirituality. She enjoyed volunteer work and her work in the schools.

When things go wrong as they sometimes will, When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill When funds are low and debts are high And you want to smile, but you have to sigh, When care is pressing down a bit, Rest if you must, but don’t you quit. Success is failure turned inside out – The silver tint of the clouds of doubt, And you never can tell how close you are, It may be near when it seems so far, So, stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit –

Alton Wayne (Red) Heath It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Alton Wayne (Red) Heath. Sunrise: February 20th, 1930, Melita, Manitoba. Sunset: June 2nd, 2016, Kamloops, BC. Red is survived by Peggy, his loving Wife of 60 years and their Children and Grandchildren: Sue (Jim) Bepple, Angela Bepple (Brendan Walsh), Brent Bepple (Jenn Schroeder); Mike (Linda) Heath, Jenna (Shaun) Quiring, Kayla Heath (Trace Tower) and Laurel (Peter) Segaric, Mark Segaric & Devon Segaric. Also left to cherish Red’s memory are his Great-Grandchildren: Owen, Jace, Greyson and Hazel Quiring; his Brother Bill Heath, Sister Heather (Stu) Winter, Sister-in-law Cheryl Heath, Brother-in-law Mike (Vicki) MacMillan, Cousins: Barrie (Darlene) Bueckert and Judy (Vic) Birkheim, as well as many Nieces, Nephews and their families that he spoke of fondly. Red was predeceased by his Father Clare, Mother Mary, Stepmom Ivy, Brother Dan and Peggy’s parents Don and Evelyn MacMillan. Red was a gentle caring man, who loved his family and friends. He lived a busy life full of family, work and play, but always made time to help others when they called upon him. Red loved to compete (ok…...win), but was also a gracious loser & honest sportsman. He loved to tell a story and was always prepared with something that had recently happened around him, or most likely, to spread the humour from a well told joke he had just heard! Red enjoyed the outdoors, loved being physically active and always held a special place in his heart for Johnson Lake, where many a good time happened and of course, many a future story and joke came from. Red was blessed to enjoy 29 years of retirement with Peggy and it was well spent in the early years, with them enjoying trips to: Hawaii, Toronto, Alaska, as well as many local camping and fishing trips, to areas both familiar and those new to explore. They also spent many pleasurable hours with their Children, Grandchildren and families and we will not soon forget how lucky we were to know him and love him as part of our families. Brother, Husband, Father, Grandfather and GreatGrandfather. He did it well! We will all miss you Papa! A Celebration of Life will be held at Cottonwood Centre (North Shore Comm. Centre) at 3:00pm on Saturday, August 6th, 2016. Memorial donations may be made to Kamloops Hospice, or the charity of your choice. Condolences may be expressed to the family from www.myalternatives.ca

You may not be aware, but first-time home buyers have some advantages in B.C. The federal and provincial governments have incentive programs to help get you into your first home — and even a new home. Today we will look at two federal government incentives when buying a new home: 1. Registered Retirement Savings Plan withdrawal: The home buyers’ plan allows firsttime buyers to withdraw up to $25,000 from an RRSP to purchase a home without having to pay tax on the withdrawal. The federal government recently increased the maximum amount to give additional access to registered retirement savings plans for home purchases. Who is a first-time home buyer according to the federal government? According to the government

website (http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/tx/ ndvdls/tpcs/rrsp-reer/hbp-rap/cndtns/ menu-eng.html#first-timehomebuyer), you are considered a first-time home buyer if, in a four-year period, you did not occupy a home that you or your current spouse or common-law partner owned. This is different from the view of the provincial government which says once an owner, you can never be a first-time home buyer again. Talk to your accountant and financial planner to see if you would be considered a first-time home buyer by the federal government to take advantage of this program. 2. First-time home buyers’ tax credit of $750: The federal government introduced a first-time home buyers’ tax credit in 2009 to acknowledge the costs associated with purchasing a first home.

INDY BAL

Westwin Realty

A person must be considered a first-time home buyer by the federal government to be eligible for the credit. Where two people purchase together, they can either split the credit or choose one party to take the entire credit. It is line 369 of your tax return and you claim it in the tax year you purchase. If you think this applies to you, talk to your tax preparer and bring your legal paperwork from the purchase with you for that appointment. Questions on these incentives or more? Call your local mortgage broker to get more details.
