While the dispute that drove Veronica and Maddy apart was quickly resolved, the fallout is hitting them this week. The two South Kamloops second-

ary students were the focus of one of the stories that make up the six-part CBC series This Is High School, which was filmed at the school in the spring. The first episode aired this past Sunday. See NEGATIVE, A4

The city’s real-estate market continues on its roll of increasing sales and higher prices, oblivious to government actions to cool the market in Metro Vancouver. The number of residential units — 279 — that traded hands in September is up 13 per cent over the same month last year. The September total boosted year-to-date numbers 24 per cent higher than the first nine months of 2015. About 2,550 residential units were sold in Kamloops through September, up from 2,100 last year. Meanwhile the number of active listings, at 1,500, is down from 1,900 in September, 2015.

Cyndi Crossley, vice-president of Kamloops & District Real Estate Board, said the numbers are a continuation of a trend seen all year of strengthening sales and prices. But a slowdown in the Lower Mainland due to the imposition of a 15 per cent tax on foreigner buyers, along with new rules announced Monday by the federal Liberal government to cool markets in Toronto and Vancouver, could slow sales locally.

One of those changes will require purchasers who enter into a mortgage term of five years or longer to qualify at higher, Bank of Canada posted rates. “It could be difficult for first-time buyers,” Crossley acknowledged. “It could have an affect on the market.” Among the most active slices of the Kamloops market are homes over $600,000. Twenty-three homes in that price range were sold last month. Those transactions helped push the median price in September for a singlefamily home in the city to $420,000, a price that can fluctuate based on the number of high-end homes sold in any given month.

CITY TO ASK KGHM FOR MORE CASH ANDREA KLASSEN STAFF REPORTER andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com

KGHM Ajax has plans to operate a copper and gold mine on its property south of Aberdeen.

Kamloops city council will ask the proponents of the Ajax mine for more money to finish a review of the project’s environmental application — and some assurances there is an end in sight for the permitting process, which has been on hold since May.

At its meeting Tuesday, council voted unanimously to continue a review of KGHM’s application for environmental review, headed by SLR consulting, after learning the initial $300,000 budget had been mostly used up. A federal-provincial review of KGHM’s proposed copper and gold mine is officially on hold. See KGHM, A5

The B.C. Liberal Party has picked a date next month for its candidate-selection meeting in Kamloops-North Thompson, giving three men running less than three weeks to sign up members. Liberals in North Kamloops and the North Thompson Valley will select their candidate on Saturday, Nov. 19, with

voting times and locations to be announced. Deadline to join the party and be eligible to vote is Friday, Oct. 21, at 4:30 p.m. The party’s nominee will not be chosen in time to attend the B.C. Liberal party’s convention, which will take place in Vancouver from Nov. 4 to Nov. 6. Three people are seeking the nomination: North Shore Business Improvement Association executive director Steven

Puhallo, Kamloops Mayor Peter Milobar and Tobiano founder Mike Grenier. The nomination race arose in early September when, as expected, current Kamloops-North Thompson MLA and Health Minister Terry Lake announced he would not be running in the May 9, 2017, election. “We were hoping it [candidate vetting] could be done quickly and voting could be done quickly,” said Steven Puhallo,

the first to announce his run for the nomination. “With three people running, it was against the laws of physics.” Milobar, who also announced last month, said the date “makes a lot of sense. “We weren’t going to make it before convention and the next weekend is Remembrance Day.” The Kamloops-North Thompson nomination meeting will be one of the party’s last provincewide. Mike Grenier, the last

of the three to announce his candidacy, said he has encouraged the party to hold multiple voting opportunities in the North Thompson on the day of the nomination meeting to ensure fairness across the riding. Voting will be by preferential ballot rather than two consecutive ballots if any one candidate doesn’t reach a majority after the first vote. “In this day and age, people want to vote and go,” Milobar said.

Negative feedback followed episode From A1

The premiere episode told the girls’ story and one about thenGrade 8 student Dusan. On Monday, the girls experienced plenty of feedback from their peers. During a Facebook Live session hosted by former Kamloopsian Ryan Egan, the girls, now in Grade 10, talked about their episode, Grade 9 Is the Worst Year. In it, the producers focused on the bullying Maddy experienced when someone told her that Veronica, who had been her best friend in past years, said nasty things about her.

Egan asked the pair what has happened to them since the story was filmed. Veronica said she has had some negative feedback from some students because the episode showed her “hurting my best friend,” but added it is a weird experience for her because the issue was resolved in a couple of days with help from school counsellors. Maddy said she’s had people tell her they feel bad for her, but she’s been telling them “I’m fine. I’m good.” The source of the issue that split the pair came via cellphone texts.

Egan asked the girls if they thought it might have happened if cellphones weren’t involved. They both said it would have because the moment that started, it was one person overhearing someone else say something and misunderstanding it. It is, they agreed, an age-old issue, particularly for teenagers who, as Veronica said, “are still finding out who you are, who your friends are. Things can be kind of patchy.”’ Maddy added it’s important to “be careful what you say around other people — and always talk to the person it’s about” when rumours and gos-

sip begin to spread. Both students say their friendship endures. Veronica said the new grade brings with it “way less drama and the work got harder.” This Is High School continues for five more Sundays on CBC. It airs at 8 p.m. Upcoming issues include: • Oct. 9: I’m My Own Person, They Can’t Control Me, which looks at a star student juggling classes and her life and a struggle to keep a promising student from dropping out of school. • Oct. 16: The Squeaky Wheel Gets the Grease, with a student struggling to excel in his hard-

est class while dealing with a troubled past. • Oct. 23: I Think He Knows I Care focuses on a bright student with autism who struggles to put feelings into words for an assignment and a student confronting her anxiety issues. • Oct. 30: Have You Ever Had A Girlfriend Before? looks at an eccentric new student struggling to fit in and a bright student whose grades drop when he picks popularity over homework. • Nov. 6: Sink Or Swim tells the stories of a student struggling to pass a class needed to graduate and two students competing to be valedictorian.

New rules will impact first-time homebuyers CAM FORTEMS

STAFF REPORTER

cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

New rules brought in by the federal Liberal government to cool hot housing prices in the country’s biggest markets will take a significant

percentage of firsttime buyers out of the market, according to industry observers. Finance Minister Bill Morneau announced changes this week headlined by a requirement for borrowers who opt for a five-year fixed

term to qualify at the Bank of Canada’s posted five-year rate — nearly double the rate available on the market. The Bank of Canada’s posted rate this week is 4.64 per cent. “Right now I could

MORTGAGE MATTERS Time for a Mortgage Tune-Up? Did you know... ... that just like your car or your home, your mortgage can benefit from a seasonal inspection! Your car gets taken in for regular servicing to keep it running for the long term, shouldn’t your financial future get the same kind of attention? Now is a great time to make sure your mortgage is in peak performance! Here are seven common signs you need a mortgage tune-up: 1. You are locked in at a higher rate than you could get today – and you want a professional opinion on your options; 2. You’re thinking about moving to a new home this year – or pondering buying an investment property; 3. You’re carrying more than $25,000 in high-interest loans or credit cards and it’s affecting your cash flow; 4. There’s a renovation or home repair project coming up this year – either by choice or necessity; 5. An investment or business opportunity is available – and you wish you could take advantage; 6. There’s a large expense looming – tuition, wedding – and you want to plan ahead; and, 7. Your mortgage is up for renewal in the next 12 months If you are curious about what a mortgage broker can do for you OR if you recognize one of the signs that it’s time for a tune-up – give me a call or send an email anytime at 250 682 6077 or e-mail steve.bucher@migroup.ca or check out my website at www.mortgagebuilder.ca.

get you 2.4 or 2.39 [per cent], but you have to qualify at 4.64 per cent,” said Kamloops mortgage broker Starr Webb. “Today I’m looking at pre-qualifications and saying, ‘You now need to get something in this [lower house price] range.’” Webb said the changes could also take some first-time buyers completely out of the market. Mortgage website ratespy.com estimated a buyer with a $50,000 income who has a 10 per cent downpayment can qualify for a $300,000 mortgage under today’s rules. With the change, that would drop to a $246,000 mortgage. “No question it will take a significant part of first-time buyers out of the market,” said city mortgage broker Larry Brinkworth, estimating it could be as high as 50 per cent of those buyers. Other changes brought in by the Liberal government

include foreign buyers no longer being exempt from capital gains on a principal residence and limits on mortgage holders from insuring mortgage refinancing. Those follow earlier measures, including reducing maximum amortizations to 25 per cent from 40 per cent that existed prior to the Great Recession. But the biggest hammer is the new stress test on the five-year rate that will make qualifying more difficult, but prepare buyers from shock of future interest rate hikes. The move matches the existing requirement for variable-rate mortgages and fixed-rate terms of four years or less. Brinkworth and local realtor Vince Cavaliere both said the measures are a blunt instrument aimed more at the wild markets of Toronto and Vancouver, but will nonetheless impact Kamloops. Cavaliere said

he recently assisted young buyers, noting the new rules will change circumstances for others like them. “I’m sure in a couple of months from now, they couldn’t qualify,” he said. Kamloops & District Real Estate Association president Katherine Rutherford similarly expects some first-time buyers with less than 20 per cent down to be taken out of the market. She also expects a rush in the next two weeks. “If they make an offer by Oct. 17, they’ll qualify at the rate they were prequalified for . . . I think we’ll see action before Oct. 17,” she said. First-time buyers who will be affected by the change typically look at the $350,000 to $400,000 range, what Rutherford called the “meat of the market.” Cavaliere said concerns about Canadians’ debt levels are real, but he said consumer loans,

including for motor vehicles, are a greater concern because that market is lightly regulated. The city’s realestate market has seen double-digit sales increases all year, along with steadily rising prices. Cavaliere noted there are only about 500 single-family houses available for sale in Kamloops — a low inventory he said should buoy prices. KamloopsThompson-Cariboo MP Cathy McLeod said some measures, including removing the capital-gains exemption from foreign buyers, are welcome. But she said the five-year stress test could hurt homeowner equity in markets that are not in a bubble. “The stress test is a solution for Vancouver and Toronto,” McLeod said. “It will have impacts in small communities across the country, especially for first-time buyers.”

Viola Thomas pose for a photo to post on social media to show their solidarity with families of sisters in spirit on the topic of missing and murdered indigenous women, girls and transgender and two-spirit people. The local campaign was hosted Tuesday by fourth-year social work students at TRU.

KGHM will review city’s request From A1

Yves Lacasse, KGHM’s externalaffairs manager, said the company will “closely review their request and get back to city council once we have reached a decision.” Public works director Jen Fretz said while the review of the proposed mine south of Aberdeen has been paused to allow the company time to respond to public comments and questions — including those from SLR — the city has been going back and forth with the company behind the scenes, looking for more information on various issues of concern. “Things haven’t exactly been straightforward with the timeline with this application so far,” Fretz said, noting the company initially stated it planned to have its environmental review back on track by now. The city will cover additional consultation costs out of its general reserve while it waits to see if KGHM will pay for the work. KGHM gave the city $300,000 for the first stage of its review last year.

“We see value in the city’s pursuit of an independent third-party assessment of the Ajax EA application,” KGHM Ajax spokesman Robert Koopmans said at the time. Even as they voted to continue the review, several councillors expressed concern SLR’s work could cost more still if KGHM’s review is not wrapped up in the near future. “I’m sensing on this particular application this is a bit of a back and forth and we’re probably on round three at this point, and I don’t think this is how the environmental assessment process was designed to work,” Coun. Ken Christian said. “I’m concerned maybe the $200,000 is just the tip of the iceberg as this thing continues on into year seven, year eight, year 10.” That led Coun. Arjun Singh to suggest it’s time council makes its frustration with the environmental review known to the province and the federal government. “I really believe we have to try and push this issue a bit and try and say, ‘Let’s get this thing done

one way or the other,’” he said. Mayor Peter Milobar, who voted against sending the letter, said pushing for a faster process could leave the city trying to make decisions about the project with incomplete information. “If we let it unfold, I think we’ll get a much stronger understanding of what will unfold and what can be done on this property,” he said. But Singh argued there may come a point when council will have to say it isn’t satisfied with KGHM’s efforts and the project shouldn’t proceed. “They’ve had every question asked. I can’t imagine there would be any more questions to be asked given the volume of questions over the last five years,” he said. “It’s got to have an end point. At the rate we’re going, it’s going to end in 2035.” Voting against sending the letter were Milobar and councillors Dieter Dudy, Pat Wallace and Marg Spina. In favour of sending the letter were Singh, Christian and councillors Tina Lange, Donovan Cavers and Denis Walsh.

Save-On Foods unveils wine section, opening tomorrow Kick-off event with speeches and tastings starts at 10 a.m. ANDREA KLASSEN

STAFF REPORTER

andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com

After much rearranging of shelves, the big white tarp blocking off a section of the Sahali Save-On Foods is coming down. Tomorrow morning, the Columbia Place grocery store will become the city’s newest wine shop, with several hundred varieties of B.C. VQA product on display in a special section. A kick-off event with speeches and

tastings from local wineries begins at 10 a.m. While products are still coming in, Overwaitea Food Group director of wine sales Steve Moriarty said the store’s wine section will stock more than 900 varieties of wine from 140 B.C. wineries, with room to expand to as many as 1,400 different bottles. “We want as many as we can get,” Moriarty said. Wines are arranged in alphabetical order, which Moriarty said

seems to be easier for customers to navigate, with a cooler to offer chilled varieties. Once opened, Moriarty said the wine section should become a regular hub of activity at the store. “We try to sample or pour wines on a regular basis, so we generally have it every Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday and, if we can make it work for the wineries, we’ll do it the other days too,” he said. For its initial opening, the store is also

preparing special displays to highlight wines from the Kamloops area. Promotions focused on the Harper’s Trail, Monte Creek Ranch and Privato wineries, including tastings, will run for the next three weeks. “We’ve made a pretty solid commitment that we’re going to sell as much of the local wines as we can, not just for our opening but on a regular basis,” Moriarty said. The store will also use the opening to

launch a pair of nonalcoholic products from Monte Creek. Erik Fisher, general manager at Monte Creek, said the winery began making its own grass-fed beef jerky as a promotional item, but is now looking to launch it in stores. Save-On will also stock honey made by bees Monte Creek uses to pollinate haskap berries — an ingredient in an upcoming release. “They’ve never had a chance to sell this before,” Moriarty said.

An open and shut decision at TRU’s Old Main Building DALE BASS

STAFF REPORTER

dale@kamloopsthisweek.com

While the goal was to reduce energy costs, the reality at the law school at Thompson Rivers University means windows meant to be opened will now be permanently closed. Brandon Dallamore, the university’s building-systems technologist for facilities, advised faculty and staff in an email that the windows on the third and fourth floors of the Old Main Building are affected by the decision. Dallamore wrote that, when the $20-million law school addition was

constructed, sustainability was a consideration and the heating and cooling

operations were configured to be turned off when windows were open “so we are not just pouring energy to outside.” However, Dallamore added, the air coming in is unfiltered, “reducing air quality and space cleanliness while increasing janitor workload.” He said if one office leaves a window open, neighbouring offices may suffer lack of ventilation. “The building is designed to stop ventilating when there is a fire to slow it down; however, an open window would negate that effect,” Dallamore wrote, noting that since removing the ability to open windows, complaints about temperature in Old Main have dropped.

BUYING WITHIN YOUR MEANS

A

s of Oct. 17, the rules on buying a home will tighten — and those involved in the Kamloops real-estate industry anticipate a rush to close deals as first-time buyers are expected to be impacted the most. The too-hot housing market of Greater Vancouver led the provincial government this past summer to levy a 15 per cent foreign-buyer’s tax, a move that has resulted in a slowdown in sales for the following two months. “Slowdown” is a relative term as homes for sale are still getting snapped up quickly for absurd prices in the Lower Mainland. A similarly sizzling market in Toronto — with associated prices that can cause heart attacks — has prompted the federal government to also step in and try to protect consumers from themselves. Interest rates remain historically low. Those attractive rates have allowed more people to become homeowners and sales in Kamloops have benefitted, with the median price for a single-family home hitting $420,000 last month. When rates are less than three per cent, the choices widen. When rates rise — and, despite this incredibly long stretch of rock-bottom rates, they will — options narrow for many in the market. If those rates rise suddenly, scores of people already in fixed-term mortgages could end up in a world of trouble, as we witnessed in the United Stated during the Great Recession of 2008-2009. Ottawa’s decision to tighten the rules — including a requirement for borrowers who opt for a five-year fixed term to qualify at the Bank of Canada’s posted five-year rate, which is nearly double the rate available on the market — may upset house hunters. But when (not if ) those rates rise, those very same property shoppers should be better prepared to withstand the financial challenges that follow. The lesson? Don’t buy beyond your means.

A parade of reasons why pride celebrations exist

S

top me if you think you’ve heard this one before. A pride parade is taking place and a straight person is fed up. Surely, in 2016, parades are unnecessary, this argument tends to go. The same-sex marriage debate has been put to bed for more than a decade in Canada. Mainstream society accepts gay people now. You got what you wanted, so you don’t need to keep going out there and demanding our attention. In fact, keep parading and waving flags and you might start to test our patience, find the limits of our acceptance. Look, pride parades have their faults. There’s never enough sidewalk space, it’s easy to get a sunburn and sometimes you get handed a condom in front of your 50-something mother with whom you do not discuss sex things in the middle of your Vancouver vacation. But if you think homophobia and transphobia are over in Canada, maybe it’s because you’ve never been queer. Let’s get depressing for a second. For a local example of antiLGBT sentiment, I invite you to go online and read through some of the comments posted when the city opened a gender-neutral washroom in Riverside Park this past summer. If equating a trans person who would like to use a single-occupancy restroom with a pedophile

SESSION strikes you as accepting, we may be using different metrics. Here’s another: In 2011, a national survey of high school students from the University of Winnipeg found one in five LGBTQ students has been physically harassed or assaulted because of their sexual orientation. Nearly two-thirds of the teens surveyed felt unsafe at school. Leaving Canada aside a moment — because thanks to the internet, immigration and common compassion, community doesn’t stop at international borders — researchers with the International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex Association noted earlier this year that being gay is still illegal in 74 countries. In 13 of those, it is punishable by death. This year, in the country next door to us, a man entered a gay night club in Orlando, Fla., and killed 49 people, wounding 53 more.

I’ve been out since I was 16 and there are still days when I find myself running the odds in my head, calculating the risk versus reward of being myself. I had been living in Kamloops for about five days when Thompson Rivers University held its first pride parade — the first march of its kind, so far as I’ve been able to tell, in the city’s remembered history. Moving to a new place always raises some questions. Google can tell you a lot of things about a place in advance — about population and the hours of nearby coffee shops, about fine hiking trails and decent restaurants. But if there’s a way to get it to tell you how an average resident will react when you mention you’re bisexual, or when you bring a girlfriend to karaoke on a Saturday night, I haven’t yet figured it out. What a relief, five days in, to be reminded I wasn’t alone here. Pride is about a fight for acceptance — and it’s worth noting being accepted is different than being tolerated. But it’s also about having a space where, hopefully, ideally, for a few hours at least, you know you don’t have to fight. Where you are among friends and supporters. Where you are safe, no betting required. If that seems like too much to ask, you’ve more than made my point. andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com Twitter: @AndreaThisWeek

resources for public services we all enjoy. We all pay for low pay. The living wage greatly reduces the costs of poverty, which has been estimated to amount to $9 billion a year in B.C. through the health, social-services and criminaljustice systems. The more people in the community who earn a fair wage, the stronger, healthier and more inclusive the community will become. Research has demonstrated that when low-income workers have greater incomes, they spend the increase locally. Our whole community benefits from keeping money circulating in the local economy. If adoption of a living-wage policy in Kamloops puts upward pressure on the provincial minimum wage, that’s good.

HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS DON’T BELONG AT TRU Editor: Re: (‘Partnership brings Chinese high school students to TRU,’ Sept. 30): It is my understanding that Thompson Rivers University is accepting Grade 11 and 12 students from across the ocean and having trouble housing them on campus. Excuse me? Are our Grade 11 and 12 students being housed and educated at universities in China?

Do we have the teachers, the time and the housing to focus on international high school students? Many of our students can’t afford to attend TRU and live on campus. For those who wish to live on campus, there can be waiting lists. But international high school students will be renting rooms before having their own dorm building constructed. I think there is something wrong here.

Money talks and money gets what the person with money wants. The campus at TRU needs to have a focus on university-aged students, not high school kids. If NorKam senior secondary wanted to build dorms for its students, would it be allowed to do so? If families of high school students from Alberta had the money to build a dorm on Thompson Rivers University land,

would they be allowed to do so? If seniors wanted to build on the TRU campus, could they? International high school students should stay home until they are college- or university-bound, when they can apply, along with everyone else. They need to follow the proper channels and go through the Kamloops-Thompson school district. Claudia Lydia Kamloops

Flight diverted after losing metal piece CAM FORTEMS

STAFF REPORTER

cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

A small metal part fell off a cargo plane taking off from Kamloops Airport Tuesday morning, but the incident did not cause mechanical or safety problems. The Convair 580 aircraft owned by KF Aerospace was diverted and landed without incident at Kelowna Airport, which was notified of the problem. Grant Stevens, human-resources manager for Kelownabased KF Aerospace, said pilots determined a problem with the aircraft based on indications from its instruments. The aircraft, originally bound for Prince George, was diverted to Kelowna where it could be investigated. A repair was completed and the aircraft departed later in the morning for its original destination, Stevens said. “We identified there was a loose tailpipe,” he said. “Subsequently, we talked with Kamloops Airport and they did find a clamp on the runway.” Fred Legace, manager of Kamloops Airport, said flight-services staff witnessed a part coming off the plane as it departed about 9 a.m. Airport staff inspected the runway and found what Legace described as a metal clamp, about a foot long and weighing a half-pound. Legace said staff inspect the runway several times a day for debris. Stevens called it a “very unusual occurrence for us.” The incident will be filed in a report to Transport Canada. Stevens said the agency can decide to investigate the incident itself or leave it up to KF Aerospace to determine whether it was caused by metal fatigue or lack of maintenance, for example.

Hunter fails in bid to have guilty verdicts erased TIM PETRUK

City seeks to protect trees ANDREA KLASSEN

STAFF REPORTER

andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com

An update to the city’s official community plan could be good news for trees on private land. CAO David Trawin said the city’s planning department is looking at adding development-permit area designations to all commercial and industrial lands within the city’s borders. In development-permit areas, buildings and major landscaping features, such as trees, can’t be altered without a permit from the city. While the downtown area and McGill Road are already development permit areas, Trawin said the same rules don’t apply for properties like the Greyhound bus depot on Notre Dame Drive, where about 15 mature trees got the chop last month as part of a redevelopment project.

Trawin said arborists are able to preserve a tree on city property, but could not otherwise object to the trees coming down on private property. “They can cut the trees down before they talk to us,” he said. “It’s their land.” While an increase in development-permit areas wouldn’t mean all existing trees on commercial and industrial properties must be preserved, Trawin said it would give the city a chance to talk to property owners about what measures they can take to preserve the city’s tree canopy, such as planting new trees for those they remove. A new urban forestry strategy passed by city council Tuesday aims to bring the tree canopy in the city up to 20 per cent from its current 12 per cent figure. While the city has a 16

per cent canopy in its parks and boulevards — which still requires the planting of about 4,000 trees over the next 20 years to get to 20 per cent — other neighbourhoods have more work ahead. Southgate, where the bus depot is located, has the lowest tree canopy of any neighbourhood in Kamloops, at two per cent. Juniper Ridge is a veritable forest in comparison, its 16 per cent canopy the most of any city neighbourhood. As part of the strategy, council will be asked to add $75,000 to its 2017 budget for additional tree planting, though that item won’t be debated until early next year. The city will also update its inventory of protected trees, which are considered to have heritage or ecological value, and update its tree-protection bylaw.

Using 3D mapping software, investigators in the Yukon were able to find a perfect match for the photo’s backdrop 18 kilometres north of the B.C./Yukon border — an area in which he was not permitted to have been hunting. In 2011, investigators flew a helicopter to the Yukon location they found with the mapping software. They took a photograph of the backdrop, which was entered as evidence during Dougan’s trial, to be compared to the photo from the record book.

A B.C. Supreme Court judge has thrown out the appeal of a Kamloops hunter seeking exoneration after an unusual ruling that flowed from a protracted poaching trial. Abe Dougan was found guilty last October of four wildlife-related offences stemming from a recordsetting Dall sheep he killed in 1999. Right after Kamloops provincial court Judge Stella Frame handed down her verdict, she stayed all charges, ruling Dougan’s Charter right to be tried in a reasonable time had been violated. Dougan was charged 13 years after the offence. His trial began in December 2013 and Frame’s ruling was issued on October 9, 2015. Dougan sought the judicial stays, but did not expect them to be attached to findings of guilt. His lawyer, Kevin Church, argued the Abe Dougan with the Dall sheep that was the focus findings of guilt would of the trial. have a severe impact on Dougan’s livelihood.

HALIFAX — Despite its brawn and fury, hurricane Matthew no longer poses much of a threat to Canada’s East Coast, the Canadian Hurricane Centre said yesterday after it dropped a tropical cyclone statement from its website. Meteorologist Bob Robichaud said the powerful, slow-moving storm is now expected to veer into the Atlantic Ocean after scraping along the coast of Florida, and it may double back for another run at the state later this week. “That’s bad news for the U.S.,’’ he said in an interview. Earlier track models had suggested the storm — listed as a Category 3 hurricane yesterday — could slam into the Maritimes late on the holiday week-

end, prompting many marinas and ports in the region to begin securing boats and cargo. Robichaud said a low-pressure system had pushed the jet stream south from the Great Lakes, which meant the storm could have hitched a ride with steering currents in the upper atmosphere and headed into Atlantic Canada. But a high pressure system moved the jet stream north before Matthew could get a lift. “We no longer expect this to come anywhere near us on the weekend,’’ said Robichaud, adding that the high-pressure system will effectively block the storm’s progress north. “For us, for the long weekend, it’s looking pretty good.’’ Still, Robichaud said

the hurricane could change course again. “I wouldn’t turn my back on this storm just yet.’’ Father out to sea, the 14th named storm of the season, tropical storm Nicole, isn’t expected to have much of an impact on Matthew or Canada. Nicole isn’t even expected to become a hurricane. Meanwhile, hurricane Matthew has already caused deadly devastation in Haiti and other parts of the Caribbean — and mass evacuations were well underway yesterday along the U.S. East Coast as the storm moved north of the Bahamas. And even though Matthew remains far from Canadian shores, Maritimers were getting ready Wednesday for a bout of nasty weather — just in case.

Hurricanes and tropical storms have made a mess of the region before, sometimes catching residents off guard. At the Charlottetown Yacht Club, some boaters hastened the endof-season removal of their vessels. Steve Murray, the club’s commodore, said the boats have to come out of the water within the next 10 days because the marina’s floating docks are always hoisted ashore before winter sets in. “We’ve accelerated that process a little bit,’’ Murray said in an interview. “We’re a little gun shy. The yacht club is in quite an exposed location.’’ Many vessels at the marina were badly damaged by hurricane Juan in September 2003 and by post-tropical storm Arthur in 2014. Likewise, safety

preparations were well underway at the Port of Halifax. “We’re making sure that everything that can be nailed down and tied up is in fact secure,’’ said spokesman Lane Farguson. “We’re moving equipment from the waterline to farther back.’’ In New Brunswick, Emergency Measures Organization spokesman Robert Duguay said staff have been monitoring the storm for several days. “This one is not taking us by surprise,’’ he said. Matthew formed as a tropical storm Sept. 28 and quickly developed into a hurricane the following day. During a brief period last week, it had reached Category 5 status, churning out sustained winds over 252 kilometres per hour.

Quebec judge muzzles Montreal pit bull law

MONTREAL — A Quebec judge has suspended parts of Montreal’s controversial pit bull bylaw until a legal challenge can be heard on the merits of the case. Superior Court Justice Louis J. Gouin ruled Wednesday the pit bull-related provisions in the bylaw will not be enforced pending further court arguments. Gouin extended a temporary stay he issued earlier this week that was set to expire late Wednesday afternoon.

On Monday, the Montreal branch of the SPCA went to court seeking the suspension of several pit bull-related parts of the animal control bylaw, which came into effect that day. It argued that some of the bylaw’s provisions are discriminatory, unreasonable and unenforceable and will result in all pit bulls being penalized regardless of their behaviour. The legislation would have prohibited new pit bulls on the territory of Montreal and placed restrictions on those already there. Mayor Denis Coderre has

defended the bylaw as a balanced approach, although the move to introduce breedspecific legislation was widely criticized both before and after city council passed it last week. In particular, Coderre dismissed the notion the city went too quickly, saying it could have acted immediately after the dog-related death of a Montreal woman in June. Instead, the city studied the matter for a few months and crafted a bylaw he said is similar to what has been enacted elsewhere. “A city has the right to

decide on its territory how to best protect it citizens,’’ Coderre said Wednesday, shortly before the judgment came down.For its part, the animal rights organization applauded the court ruling. “The fight is far from being over, but we are very pleased with this first victory,’’ said Sophie Gaillard, a lawyer who sits on the SPCA’s executive. “We are particularly delighted to be able to continue finding adoptive homes for all of our healthy and behaviourally sound dogs, regardless of their physical appearance.’’

NEW DELHI — A Bangladesh court has cleared a Canadian university student of all allegations related to a restaurant siege three months ago in which 20 hostages and five attackers were killed. Metropolitan Magistrate Nur Nabi passed the order yesterday after an investigator appealed for clearing Tahmid Hasib Khan, an undergraduate student studying global health at the University of Toronto who has Canadian residency. Prosecutor Abdullah Abu said Khan was cleared of suspicion that he was involved in the attack July 1 on the Holey Artisan Bakery in Dhaka. He had walked free Sunday after a court grant him bail. The Islamic State group has claimed responsibility for the attack, but the government has blamed local militant groups. Khan is a permanent resident of Canada and an undergraduate student studying global health at the University of Toronto. He was released on bail on Sunday after being detained in Bangladesh for three months. A Canadian lawyer hired by his family said the bail decision came after police filed documents with a Bangladesh court saying investigators found no evidence against the 22-year-old in connection with the terror attack. Khan had arrived in the Bangladeshi capital, Dhaka, on July 1 to celebrate Eid with his family, and planned to travel to Nepal to begin an internship with UNICEF the following week. He was with friends at the Holey Artisan Bakery when the armed gunmen attacked. Security forces stormed the restaurant on July 2, killing the gunmen and rescuing the remaining hostages. Khan was held for questioning after the attack and his family

said he was detained continuously until his release on bail. The Toronto lawyer

BONNIE MCBRIDE

Sips in

THE CITY fare and it is easy to find a good selection of vino you can pair with your feast to be enjoyed by family and friends. In my family, dinner is just one aspect of what appears to be a day of constant grazing. We start with snacks. Actually, we start by picking at all the food we

are preparing. A lovely wine to sip with kitchen helpers would be a sparkling wine. A Moscato would be nice, sweet and lightly fizzy. It hardly counts as calories. Then, if you are watching the game and have chips and dip or meat and cheese, you may want to go on a field trip out of your wine zone. I have found two craft beers that, as a wine drinker, I enjoy and can relate to. The first, local Red Collar Brewing’s Afterglow IPL, is light, citrusy and crisp. It’s a great wine-drinker’s beer. The second is Cannery Brewing’s The Muse and the Golden Promise. It is also light, complex and dry. It would be a nice change from your reg-

ular wine indulgence. Open a few bottles with dinner because wine keeps and we can really get a rainbow of selections going. For a white, try something very light for guests who are not much for wine. Finca Los Primos Torrontes is really nice and wellpriced. Next, open a rosé. Rosé is having a moment right now and there are lots of great very dry and flavourful options. Don’t cheap out though. Price will make a difference this time. Third bottle — crack open a red. Red? With turkey? Absolutely. Try a pinot noir. These are light and fruity reds perfectly suited to turkey dinner. Our local Sagewood Winery has a brand

new one that would be great. And finally, really knock off everyone’s socks with a tree fruit selection. Elephant Island Blackberry or Forbidden Fruit table wines are great for dinner. Be sure to purchase a table wine, not a fortified wine, if you want to serve it with the main course. Dessert, anyone? Try a fortified merlot for a fruity, chocolatey treat or any of the fortified fruit wines for a surprising finish for non-pie eaters. Wine doesn’t have to be a minor player on your table this weekend. You can ensure guests gobble it up with a little planning. (Sorry, I couldn’t resist.) Happy Thanksgiving.

2017 Acadia all about the children WADE OZEROFF DRIVEWAY CANADA drivewaycanada.ca

T

he new-generation Acadia comes to us with a number of major changes for 2017 and arrives in a slightly smaller package GMC hopes will expand its appeal with added family-friendliness.

Through a hilarious series of misadventures, I came out west for our first look at the car here in Driveway and ended up on the “lifestyle” wave of journalist previews. The way it often works at vehicle launches is there will be a wave of more nutsand-bolts focused auto writers that lasts a day or two, followed by a second wave of folks who are more interested in daily practicality — how many kids you can fit in the car, that type of thing. Tee hee, we’re real elitist about it, too. The car guys look down our noses at everybody who isn’t us; but the truth is, I love the lifestyle and technology bloggers’ different priorities. Now, I don’t have any kids but, if I did, I could fit up to seven of them in the 2017 Acadia (if I got the Denali model, with its three rows of seats; the vehicle can be had with only two rows in the All Terrain trim). And, if I did have

any delightful toddlers, I’d probably have so many of them I would always be unsure how many were in the car; always forgetting the kids in the back seat and the neighbors having to break the windows to get them out — but that wouldn’t be a factor with the newest Acadia, equipped as it is with rear seat reminder technology, which in all seriousness, is a warning to check the back seats. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not making fun of the available safety features on the Acadia (well, except for the rear-seat reminder). I took one into downtown Vancouver traffic and up north of the city into Pembroke, and I came to appreciate the pedestrian warning and rear object detection. The Denali trim (GM’s premium level for the Acadia) had the company’s safety alert seat in it, which adds a buzzing vibration to the dashboard alerts.

The 2017 GMC Acadia comes with a teen driver mode that allows parents to set parameters like governing the top speed and limiting audio volume. It also includes a system to check youngsters’ driving styles via a report card.

It’s freaky the first time you feel it, but it definitely gets your attention. When my imaginary kids grew up into wellbehaved and obedient teenagers (like we all were when were teens, right?) and the time came to lend them the car, I could further torment them with the Acadia’s teen driver mode. It allows a parent to set parameters — like governing the top speed and limiting the audio volume — and also acts as a sort of nanny/fink system

whereby you can check the youngster’s driving style via a report card. The company has changed it enough that the 2017 Acadia can be called all-new, having shrunk the overall dimensions to make it a more urban friendly vehicle (the body is 18 centimetres shorter and the vehicle lost about 13 kilograms in overall weight versus the previous generation). The grille is new, as is the wraparound rear glass and headlamps. The sheetmetal styling is pushed further into GM’s bold-and-

chunky mindset, the interior strives for a more carlike and family friendly environment (including improved access for those forgotten children in the third row). For the new model year, there are two engines available; a 3.6 litre V6 that has a horsepower boost over the previous generation (it is now rated at 310 horsepower, 271 lb.-ft. of torque) and a more economical 2.5L fourcylinder (193/188). Keyless start and entry are standard, as is a drive-mode selector

for dialing in various terrain and driving conditions. The vehicle is also now offered with Wi-Fi connectivity and a tow vision camera allowing a better view when backing up with a trailer attached. All models use a six-speed automatic transmission and buyers have a choice of 2WD or all-wheel drive powertrains. The 2017 Acadia breaks down into four trim levels (SLE, SLT, All Terrain and Denali) and starts at an MSRP of $34,995.

Most of my time, though, was spent in a Denali model, loaded with the above mentioned safety tech, plus an around-view overhead monitor with the backup camera, parking aids, lane-keeping assist and the My GMC app (and of course OnStar, one of GM’s best ideas). The price might be a factor for anyone considering the high end of the lineup, as the Denali (with V6 and AWD) tips the scales at $54,695. But then, it is all about the children, of course.

ALLEN DOUGLAS/KTW

Olamide Ajibike and the TRU WolfPack soccer men will play at 8 p.m. tonight at Hillside Stadium, following the Pack women’s match.

HEAT, PACK TO RENEW RIVALRY ADAM WILLIAMS STAFF REPORTER adam@kamloopsthisweek.com

Their history in men’s soccer is relatively short, but the Thompson Rivers WolfPack and the UBC-Okanagan Heat have crammed in a lot of moments. When the teams face off at Hillside Stadium tonight at 8 p.m., they’ll be focused not on the past, but on the match at hand — though the rest won’t be far from mind. There was the first season the teams played against one another as Canada West teams, when two Wolves were ejected with red cards in a single match. “That first year, when we had two players ejected, which I thought were pretty harsh calls, the way our guys battled back from that, just showing real resilience with two men down and taking the lead in that game and tying that game 1-1 and still having a couple opportunities to get the game-winner, really stands out for me,” head coach John Antulov said. Then there was the time striker Ryan

Glanville was sent in on a partial breakaway in the waning moments of a tied game, his legs like rubber after having played most of the match shorthanded because of a red card. “It was something where, 99 times out of 100, I would have taken that straight to the goal and tried to create something,” he said. “But at that moment, the only thing I could think about was just hitting it from 45 [yards out], instead of using all that extra energy, which I didn’t have, to try and run. “Nothing came out of it. It was a dribbler back to the goalie.” It’s obvious, from all the cards, the matches tend to get a little rough. “Generally, we just want to beat each other really badly,” WolfPack midfielder Colton Walker said. “There isn’t really anger or hate towards each other, it just comes out in the games. The guys start battling and battling, there’s a foul, it gets us mad, it gets them mad. We kind of lose our heads once in a while.” Most of the WolfPack’s memories elic-

ited laughs as they recalled them, but not all the moments have been good. “Not getting a win in the four tries against them has been tough for us,” Antulov said. “There was an opportunity last year for us to make the playoffs if we were able to get a couple results there. Not being able to come up with a win to get into the playoffs was very difficult.” The situation is much the same in 2016. The WolfPack is fifth in the Canada West’s Pacific Division, with 10 points, courtesy of a 3-6-1 record. The Heat, meanwhile, are in third, with 14 points and a 4-4-2 mark. The top four teams make the playoffs. The clubs will head to Kelowna on Saturday to play the back half of the home-and-home series. “We understand what we have to do — two wins this weekend is pretty crucial — so the guys are really focused and determined,” Walker said. “If we take six points off UBCO, it really puts us in a good position.”

ory McIlroy fought an uphill battle Sunday on the eighth green at Hazeltine National Golf Club, but the young Irishman’s 60-footer wasn’t the biggest challenge. “PA-TRICK REEEED! “ “PA-TRICK REEEED!” The par-3 in Chaska, Minn., was fenced in by a thick crowd and bleachers were packed with fans who sacrificed the first seven holes to secure prime seats for this moment. Eagerly anticipating what might go down as one of the most exciting front nines in Ryder Cup history, the gallery rolled out the red-white-andblue carpet for Patrick Reed, further pumping the tires of someone already dubbed “Captain America” for superhuman-like shots that rendered his partner and three-time major champion Jordan Spieth irrelevant during the previous day’s matches. Reed silenced the crowd. One moment you couldn’t hear yourself think and the next you could hear the blade of McIlroy’s putter. The European Union weighing heavily on his shoulders — his team behind in the tournament — McIlroy drained the long bomb sending the crowd into a shocked frenzy.

JESSICA WALLACE

Ryder

INSIDER When so many people would crumble under the pressure, Reed confidently drained his putt, too, firing the crowd back into an explosive roar, giving them exactly what they wanted and allowing the burgeoning American sports hero persona to grow another hole. Home-course advantage indubitably helped the Americans win back the Ryder Cup this past weekend, during one of the biggest events in golf that pits Europe against the United States every two years. Me and my crappy handicap were lucky to attend, crossing off an item on every golfer’s bucket list because my fiancé’s name was pulled from a lottery to purchase tickets at cost. Our perspective was unique given no Canadian would be teeing off. But even after choosing Team Europe, I was momentarily swept up in the Budweiser, sunshine and thousands of American fans chanting: “U-S-A!” See REED, A22

OF THE MONTH!

D’Artagnon McDermid

How and why did you become involved with Big Brothers Big Sisters? I became involved with BBBS because of a teacher at Brock Middle School told me about the program. I thought it would be a good program because it is rewarding and you are able to help shape a young mind. What do you enjoy about the In-School Teen Mentoring Program? The thing I like about the program is that BBBS staff help you with everything; they help troubleshoot and give you ideas. How often do you see your Little and what do you do? I saw my little buddy once a week, usually just after lunch for him. We did so many things but one thing we loved doing most was flying the kite. We played board games and we also made some rice crispy squares. How is this relationship fitting into your life? The relationship fit well into my life. It made me happy to know that I was helping a kid grow, helping them expand their knowledge of the world and learning. It is actually really relaxing, gives you time to be a kid again and also lets you be more creative than normal. Who would you recommend this program to? I would recommend this program to people who want to help others and because it’s one of the best things I’ve done as a teenager. It’s for anyone who really wants to help, who likes learning and wants to inspire a young mind. How has your Little benefited from the program? I was just someone for him to have fun with, try new sports or new things that he normally wouldn’t try with regular friends. I was someone he could bounce ideas off without criticism or being judged what I think every kid benefits from. Why do you think that someone should volunteer in this program? I think someone should volunteer in this program because it’s just rewarding! It’s great to help someone and it feels even better to see someone smile because of something you did with them. I really hope more people get involved because every kid deserves a Big Buddy. Did you know that your donations fund the mentoring programs we provide?

The Kamloops Junior Blazers doubled Vernon 4-2 in their first league action of the season on the weekend. The Blazers are playing in the B.C. Hockey Regional Bantam Tier 1 League, a new pilot program that includes Kamloops, Vernon, Kelowna and Prince George. Logan Stankoven led the way with two goals. Reagan Milburn (1G, 1A), Ashton Taylor (1G), Talon Zakall (1A) and Luke Bateman (1A) rounded out the scoring for the Blazers. The club play in the annual Chilliwack International Bantam Tournament on the weekend.

Point night

Owen Pincott and Jaden Zunti both scored hat tricks for the Kamloops Junior Blazers in an 8-1 victory over North Okanagan in bantam tier 3 play on Saturday. Zunti added two assists and Pincott had one helper. Xander Denis (1G, 4A), Olen Gelineau (1G), Luke Petrie (2A), RJ Gerow (2A) and Sam Lewis (1A) also notched points. Ryan Dusseault picked up the win in net.

Exhibition draw

Team 5 and Team 6 played to a 4-4 tie in an exhibition bantam contest on McArthur Island on the weekend.

Kamloops Minor Hockey

BRIEFS Maxwell Hinkson led the way for Team 5, recording two goals. Kaleb Costigan (1G, 1A), Josh Thom (1G) and Eric Crawford (1A) also hit the scoresheet in support of the goaltending duo of Zane Rolfsen and Matthew Yon. Michael Dagasso (2G), Mathias Woehle (1G), Jacob Haines (1G) and Corbin Guenther (1A) had points for Team 6, which had Ryerson Palmer between the pipes.

Home and home

The A2 Kamloops Junior Blazers played to a loss and a tie in atom development action against Kelowna on the weekend, tying Kelowna 1-1 in the Little Apple on Saturday, but falling 6-1 in Kamloops on Sunday. Carson Scott (1G), Matthew Hufty (1G), Kieran Harrison (1A), Evan Smith (1A) and Nash Pearce (1A) had points for the Blazers, who went with Jesse Sanche and Alex Gould in the crease.

Tying the lot

The Kamloops Junior Blazers tied a pair of home games on the weekend —

4-4 with Kelowna on Saturday and 5-5 with Salmon Arm on Sunday. The peewee tier 2 club was led by Sam Zulyniak and Ty Horner, both of whom had three goals. Kieren Maloney (1G, 1A), Eric Haight (1G, 1A), Liam Gayfer (1G, 1A), Owen Aura (1A), Seppe Mazzei (1A), Ryan Larson (1A), Kyle Sanford (1A), Jake Poulson (1A) and Grady Egeland (1A) also tallied points over the weekend. Brendan Smith and Evan Leggett shared goaltending duties.

League season. The Kamloops club tied 2-2 against both the Surrey Mavericks and the South Fraser TNT and drew the Fraser Valley Jets 3-3. The Vibe lost to the Richmond Devils 2-0. Rochelle Smith scored three goals and had an assist for Kamloops. Alyssa Reid finished the weekend with two goals and two assists. Ashley Fisher and Emma Gottfriedson shared time between the pipes.

No blood

The midget tier 3 squad from Kamloops posted a loss and a tie on the weekend on home ice, falling 12-4 to Chase on Saturday and finishing deadlocked at 2-2 with Winfield on Sunday. Hitting the scoresheet on the weekend for Kamloops were Jayden Russell (4G), Eric Ramsey (1G, 2A), Jacob Pilon (1G, 1A), Adam Sahaydak (1G, 1A), Spencer Shyiak (1G, 1A), Zane Ferguson (4A), Carter Adams (2A), Samuel Thacker (1A) and Tyson Smith (1A). Goaltending duties on Saturday were shared by Ashton Vinnie and Colin Clark, while Sunday’s tie was well-earned by Clark. Next up for the team is a Thanksgiving weekend tournament in Merritt.

The midget tier 1 Thompson Lions opened Okanagan Mainline Amateur Hockey Association play with a 4-4 tie against Central Zone in Kamloops on Saturday. Recording points for Thompson were Jacob Vautour (2G), Jackson Marshall (1G), Brandon Gremaud (1G), Josh Van Unen (2A), Eric Bertuzzi (1A), Brendan Roche (1A) and Alex Johnson (1A). Kendra Woodland made 25 saves between the pipes for Thompson.

Tough weekend

Reed and Rory Show unforgettable From A21

The energy was electric. BBC’s hilarious broadcasters brought my mind back to the blue and yellow, but the American national anthem echoed both days we walked the photoshop-perfect landscapes of Hazeltine. Other fanimaniacs were hard to miss: From suits of stars and stripes to EU swag utilized to provoke boos and encourage more chants like, “I believe that we will win.” The Reed and Rory Show was so intense we literally ran after them to the ninth hole on Sunday, joining a Walking Dead-like mob that maintained the pressure. We also found the 16th green

(complete with big screen) to provide plenty of action. Tiger Woods apparently agreed because he hunkered down on a grassy knoll in front of us when Spieth conceded his Sunday singles match to Henrik Stenson. At one point, the wave began on the left side of the fairway across the water, crested toward the bleachers behind the green and ripped around to our side before shooting down the fairway and crossing back around the 550-yard par 5 16th. “U-S-A!” encircled any player who dared step foot on the green. That eighth hole, however, was the highlight because, while both golfers made birdie,

McIlroy’s performance was exceptional. Without factoring in the sheer difficulty of sinking that putt in regular circumstances, any golfer knows the focus and nerves during high stakes. A friendly wager with a pal is enough pressure to take down the best of golfers, but toss in 40,000-plus fans cheering for the other guys — even taunting at times — and it’s no wonder Reed and the Americans claimed the trophy. On more than one occasion, it wouldn’t have surprised me to see McIlroy turn around and reenact the Bob Barker scene in Happy Gilmore, but he said the environment only fuelled him. Now that’s a real winner.

Jays-Rangers — five things to watch

SPORTS

THE CANADIAN PRESS

WOLFPACK CROSS COUNTRY ATHLETIC PROFILE

TORONTO — The Toronto Blue Jays advanced to the American League Division Series on Tuesday night with a 5-2, 11-inning victory over the Baltimore Orioles in the AL wildcard game. The Texas Rangers await in a bestof-five ALDS rematch starting today at 1:30 p.m. in Texas. Here’s a look at five storylines to watch:

Conlan Sprickerhoff Williams Lake, BC (Columneetza Secondary) 5’11” • 4th Year (Arts) 20 years old Fondest memory as a WolfPack runner? When I won the indoor 800 meter event at a meet in Kamloops. Do you have a running idol? The late Terry Fox, for running against all odds.

RIVALRY RENEWED

What do you do when not doing cross country? I fight forest fires in the off-season. If you could play for another WolfPack varsity team? Soccer. Favourite actor/actress? Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence. What is your favourite community event? Volunteering at the Rotary Fall Food Drive.

gowolfpack.tru.ca

These two teams squared off in a tensionfilled series last year. This year’s meeting should be even more intense. Blue Jays’ slugger Jose Bautista got the Rangers’ blood boiling last fall with an epic bat flip after a home run that turned the decisive Game 5 in Toronto’s favour. Tempers flared again

He said he noticed a stretching sensation in the front of his shoulder, but there was no pain. Manager John Gibbons pulled him from the game.

Obituaries & In Memoriam Edmond Paul Adkin July 8, 1989 - September 28, 2016

It is with great sadness we announce that after three days in the Intensive Care Unit of the Kelowna General Hospital, Paul died peacefully surrounded by family and friends on the morning of September 28, 2016. He was only 27 years old. Paul is lovingly remembered by his girlfriend Talyn Bertrand, Dad Tom, brother Matt, Mom Paula (Jim) Lowen, his Grandmother Audrey Cameron, uncle and aunt Rob and Karen Adkin, cousins Ryan (Kim) Adkin, Corey (Bria) Adkin, uncle Cameron Murray, aunt Nicola Murray, cousin Hope, aunt Erica Murray, cousin Brandon Caspar, Nana and Papa Ruth and Leon and a legion of friends. He was predeceased by his Grandmother and Grandfather Claire and Ted Adkin, his uncle Phil Murray and his Grandfather Stan (Marg) Murray. Paul was born in Vancouver and moved to Kamloops with his family in 1992. He attended Albert McGowan Elementary and Sahali High School. His wide circle of friends was initiated during his early school days. Paulifrog was active in sports, spending much of his childhood playing hockey and lacrosse. He added rugby to his repertoire in high school. Golf was a new found passion that he hoped to improve in the next few years. He was short of stature but had the heart of a lion. One was always struck by the strength in his legs, chest, shoulders and arms. Paul graduated from Sahali and went on to get his business degree from TRU in 2013. He worked in construction for several years with his brother Matt. He had just recently started a career in the financial management and insurance industry with the Investors Group. He tackled his new career with his usual enthusiasm. He was very proud to call his friends and family to inform them of his new job and start the process of establishing his clientele. It is a tough industry, especially for someone as young as Paul, but

he was undaunted. He took pleasure in putting on his “suit” and going to work each day. There is not a doubt that he would have succeeded in this endeavour. Paul had a special nature. He had a boyish twinkle in his eye and his face always seemed to be in full smile mode. Rarely did you see Paul without a smile, or rather a grin, on his face. His hugs were legendary. He wrapped his arms around you and you felt as though he could break you in two – but instead you received a warm solid hug. You could feel his real love for you radiate from the strength in his arms. He always had a good word for everyone – even those he hadn’t seen for a while or knew only slightly. Paul had a great sense of humour. Practical jokes were not uncommon. Hanging out with his friends and special lake stays at the Shuswap and East Barriere were a big part of his life. He loved music and was even known to pick up the “air guitar” to entertain the crowd on occasion - most recently at his cousin’s wedding in Mexico on a day cruise to Yelapa. He was extremely loyal and had a host of close, close friends who will miss him deeply – but will never forget him. Tom, Paula, Matt and Talyn would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all of the emergency personnel in Kelowna, the staff at the Four Points Hotel in Kelowna and especially all of the staff in the Intensive Care Unit in Kelowna and Kelowna Victim Services for the kind and loving care they gave to Paul, family and friends. Paul could not have been in better hands throughout this ordeal. In addition, special thanks to the multitude of friends and family who made their way to Kelowna from all over BC and Alberta to say goodbye to Paul. Your support was, and continues to be, overwhelming. If love alone could have saved Paul he would be here with us today sharing a chuckle. A Celebration of Paul’s Life will be held at 2:00 pm at the Calvary Community Church, 1205 Rogers Way, Kamloops on Saturday, October 8, 2016. A reception will follow in the gym at the Church. Should friends desire, in lieu of flowers, a donation can be made to the charity of their choice. Condolences may be sent to the family at www.schoeningfuneralservice.com. Schoenings Funeral Service 250-374-1454

Hans Ludwig Koch, age 72, of Kamloops passed away on September 23, 2016 at Royal Inland Hospital. He leaves behind his daughter Anja (Daniel) Case, grandchildren Christopher and Nicole, his sister SR Hildegard Koch and her sisters from Oslo, brother Albert (Claudia) Koch from Germany, nephews Manuel and Marcel as well as friends and co-workers. Hans was born in Germany where he owned three successful clothing businesses. In 1983, he moved to Canada with his family to enjoy a more relaxed and quiet lifestyle. Hans loved the outdoors and spent a lot of his free time fishing and camping as well as hunting in his earlier years but his greatest passion in life was his love for cooking and fine cuisine. The family would like to thank the amazing staff and physicians at RIH for their excellent care and support. Special thanks to 7 North, 4 North, Dr. Prasad and Dr. Borstlap. A Funeral Mass will be held in Germany and a Celebration of Hans’s Life will take place in Kamloops at a later date. Condolences may be expressed at www.schoeningfuneralservice.com

Robert Kelly Dahl

June 13, 1957 – September 26, 2016 It is with heartfelt sorrow that we announce the passing of Robert Kelly Dahl on September 26, 2016 at Kelowna General Hospital. Kelly leaves behind his loving wife of 19 years Camilla, daughter Amy, son Jeremy, step-daughter Robyn (Derek) Sampson and little Avery who will miss her Papa Kelly so much. In addition, parents Robert and Margaret Dahl of Osoyoos, sister Patti (Ron) of Lacombe, AB along with nephew Christopher and niece Emily of Lacombe, AB. He will be truly missed by his black lab, beloved and faithful companion Meia. You rarely saw one without the other. Kelly is pre-deceased by his brother Mark. Kelly grew up in a Military family where both his parents served. The military life took them to Alberta, Quebec, Germany, Arizona and Cold Lake, AB where he eventually graduated high school from Grand Centre High. Kelly was always an outdoor enthusiast. He loved the water, the mountains and had an incredible passion for downhill skiing. He could not be outskied on the mountains. He worked as a ski instructor in Jasper where he became a Level 3 ski instructor with the Canadian Ski Instructor’s Alliance and eventually taught his whole family to be avid skiers. During his time in Jasper, Kelly worked in a local Japanese restaurant called Tokyo Tom’s where he learned some amazing culinary skills. He was always inventive and creative in the kitchen. While working in Jasper National Park, he decided to pursue a career as a National Park Warden so he enrolled at Lethbridge Community College Environmental Science Renewable Resource Management program in the fall of 1982. During his college years, he was employed as a Student Temporary Employment Program (STEP) officer with Alberta Fish & Wildlife and was posted in Nordegg and Valleyview in Alberta. It was during this timeframe that he recognized he wanted to become a Conservation Officer versus being a Park Warden. He preferred conservation over preservation. In 1986 Kelly was hired by the BC Ministry of Environment as a Conservation Officer and was initially posted in Chilliwack. While in Chilliwack, Kelly started to dabble in utilizing wildlife decoys as an enforcement tool and eventually became one of the go-to persons in the use of decoys for the province. His involvement and dedicated work in the Steelhead Society earned him the prestigious Cal Woods Award in 1988 given out by the BC Steelhead Society. This was one of Kelly’s most prized

awards. After three years, Kelly took a promotion to Smithers in 1989 as the District Conservation Officer. Kelly had become a tenacious and determined field officer. While in Smithers, Kelly gained the reputation as a game warden who you didn’t want on your trail. In 1994, he was named Conservation Officer of the Year for outstanding service in the Conservation field; an award so deserving of his love for conservation. This was another award he cherished. Kelly met his wife Camilla Gale, a BC Environment office assistant, in Smithers and they were married in March 1997. In the summer of 1997 Kelly, Camilla, step-daughter Robyn and his faithful yellow lab Rocky moved to Kamloops. Kelly took on various CO roles in the Kamloops office. While in Kamloops, Kelly and Camilla increased their family size with Amy in 1998 and Jeremy in 2000. Kelly’s family was very important to him and everything he did and worked for was for his family. They held family season ski passes to Sunpeaks every year since moving to Kamloops and Kelly was always adamant the family skied together. While in Kamloops, Kelly took on various lead roles in many investigations and was called on throughout the country as an expert witness for many court cases. In 2014, Kelly became the lead investigator for the Mount Polley investigation which is the largest environmental investigation undertaken by the Conservation Officer Service. In 2015, he was appointed lead Inspector Officer in Charge for the Mount Polley task force with the Major Investigations Unit, a position he excelled in. His honour, integrity and meticulous work, led him to be highly respected by family, friends, co-workers and many provincial and federal departments throughout the province, country and parts of the US. A Celebration of Life will be held Saturday, October 15, 2016 at 2:00 pm at the Summit Drive Church, 1975 Summit Drive, Kamloops. Kelly had a nature you could not help but love, and a heart that was purer than gold. To those who knew him and loved him, the memory of Kelly will never grow dim. In lieu of flowers, a bank account at Royal Bank of Canada Kamloops (Sahali branch) has been set up for both Kelly’s children. Cheques may be made out to Amy Dahl and Jeremy Dahl. E-Transfers are also accepted at kidsofkelly@gmail.com. You may also choose to donate to the BC SPCA (Kamloops branch) in Kelly’s honor. A huge and sincere Thank You to the staff in the ICU at both Royal Inland Hospital Kamloops and Kelowna General Hospital, Alternatives Funeral & Cremation services and the BC Conservation Officer service especially Mike Sanderson, close friend and co-worker to Kelly.

David Robin Lee Landstad February, 19 1934 - September 28, 2016

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of David Robin Lee Landstad. Born on February 19th, 1934 on a farm near Rama, Saskatchewan. Deceased on September 28th, 2016 at Marjorie Willoughby Snowden Hospice House, Kamloops, BC. He is survived by his loving children Lorelee (Randy Ruygrok) and Todd (Laura). His granddaughters Nadia (Paul Davis), Alayna (Jesse Steele), Elizabeth and Lindsay and his greatgranddaughter Mariah. He will also be deeply missed by his dear friend, Barbara “Bunny” Chudyk. He was born to Andrew and Beatrice Landstad. They immigrated to Canada from Norway. Dad was fiercely proud of his Norwegian Heritage. David was the fourth oldest of five children. He had one sister Muriel and three brothers Alden “Bud”, Carroll “Colly” and Jerome “Jerry” and who have all passed away. He married Yvonne “Bonnie” Landstad on June 30th, 1958 (deceased from A.L.S. October 2006). They had four children – Lorelee (married to Randy and lives in Kamloops), Lorraine (deceased June 1961 at one month old), Christopher (deceased June 2011 from Leukemia) and Todd (married to Laura and lives in Redmond, Washington). David will be remembered by sisters-in-law and brotherin-law - Lila Landstad, Gwen Ellingson, Joyce and Hugh Calder as well as many nieces, nephews, extended family and friends.

Gardening was a huge passion of Dave’s. His yard always looked like another room of the house. His favourite flowers were Rhododendrons and Clematis. Sports were Dave’s favourite, especially watching baseball and hockey. He played slow pitch and was the pitcher. His first team was the Balco Bushwhackers. He played slow pitch into his mid-70’s. He was an avid skier, both downhill and cross-country. He built many of the original ski runs at Tod Mountain (now Sun Peaks). Golf was also a passion of dads. Dave and Bonnie loved to travel. They saw many countries in the world before she passed away. A few years after Bonnie passed away, Dave met a lovely lady, Barbara “Bunny” Chudyk. They loved to travel to Yuma, Arizona for the winters. However, due to his diagnosis with Alzheimer/Dementia they had to stop travelling. Bunny took good care of Dave before he moved into a full care facility.

Joyce Magdalene Thompson August 10, 1931 - October 4, 2016

It is with great sadness that we must share the passing of our beloved Mom, Auntie, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother Joyce Magdalene Thompson. Joyce passed away on October 4, 2016 at Kamloops Hospice House surrounded by her loved ones. Mom was born August 10, 1931 in Kenora, Ontario. She was the 4th of 5 rambunctious siblings. Mom met our Dad Ken as a young girl and quickly agreed to marry him. They married on May 7, 1949 and spent the next 36 years together in Richmond and Kamloops. Together, they raised five children Cal (Wendy) Larry (Hennie), Sandy (Bill), Cindi and Ross (Brenda). She was blessed with seven grandchildren Ambika, Derek, Trevor, Carly, Taylor, Alyssa and Jocelyn, as well as five great-grandchildren Alanie, Hope, Maggie, Yuri and Antonin.

- Claudette Whitehouse, for her devotion, thoughtfulness, endless energy and support to Red’s family.

A few years after Ken’s passing in 1985, she met Wally, who became her new love and they spent 17 glorious years together until Wally’s death in 2005. Together they loved puttering in the garden, travelling around the US and Canada, cheering loudly for their beloved Kamloops Blazers and loving their golden lab Missie.

- To the many friends at Cottonwood Manor and their continued support and kindness.

Joyce is also predeceased by her parents Eric and Helga, brothers Cliff, Larry, Leonard and her sister Mildred.

- Kim and Geoff from Alternative Funeral & Cremation Services, North Shore location, for their many words of advice, kindness, amazing ideas, planning tips and hugs!

The family would like to send special thanks to Dr. Thomasse and his staff, as well as the amazing staff at Kamloops Hospice House, who made Mom’s last week’s bearable for not only her, but all of us who loved her so very much.

Most especially, we would like to thank all those that honored Red by sharing in his Celebration of Life on September 24th, 2016. Your presence on this day will never be forgotten and is greatly appreciated. Red would be honored and humbled by the many people that attended this sad but very special occasion. Your kind thoughts, jokes and memories that each of you shared with his family will never be forgotten. Eternal cheers, to our amazing Husband and Dad!

LOVE ALWAYS REMEMBERS BY HELEN STEINER RICE

May tender memories soften your grief, May fond recollection bring you relief, And may you find comfort and peace in the thought Of the joy that knowing your loved one brought For time and space can never divide Or keep your loved one from your side When memory paints In colors true The happy hours that Belonged to you.
