Can clinics be ready by January 2017? TWO HEALTH CENTRES WILL SEE PATIENTS ATTACHED TO DOCS — WITH APPOINTMENTS DALE BASS STAFF REPORTER dale@kamloopsthisweek.com
DAVE EAGLES/KTW After having his bicycle stolen while looking for work at the Aboriginal Training and Education Centre, Reggie Nelson, who sufferes from rheumatoid arthtitis, continues to keep a positive attitude in hopes of finding work to pay back a personal loan for the new bike he was forced to buy.
Bike more than a ride for Reggie

Reggie Nelson needs a job to pay for his bike, which is a replacement for his previous bike, which was stolen while he was hunting for work. The vicious circle has left the 21-year-old feeling hopeless. “I have a pretty good feeling I won’t get it back,” he said. Nelson has been accessing
services at the Aboriginal Training and Employment Centre (ATEC) in North Kamloops four to five days a week since the beginning of September, searching for a restaurant job after moving to Kamloops from Nanaimo in July. On Tuesday, Oct. 4, at about 10 a.m., Nelson biked to the centre on Briar Avenue from his Elm Street home. He stopped in to jot down a few places he could apply that
morning. It was then he realized he left his bike lock key at home. “It seemed a little far to go back and get my keys because I was already kind of late,” he said. “I wanted to get out the door at nine o’clock to go job searching.” Nelson figured the bike would be safe in front of the centre for five minutes, so he leaned it up against the front door and went inside.

Dr. Chip Bantock doesn’t expect to see two new medical clinics open by January — despite that prediction by the B.C. health minister — but he’s fine with that. For Bantock, head of the Thompson Region Division of Family Physicians, the decision to create the two primary-care centres on the North Shore is a positive step in resolving the lack of family physicians in Kamloops. Bantock said the best estimate he has heard is up to 30,000 people in the city are without a family physician. The 2014 census put Kamloops’ population at about 87,000. Bantock, however, qualified the statistic by noting it’s his belief only 15,000 to 20,000 residents actually want or need a doctor. He took part in a press conference last week at which Health Minister Terry Lake announced creation of the new clinics — one at the North Shore Health Centre at 370 Tranquille Rd. and the other in Northills Centre at 700 Fortune Dr. — that will be turn-key operations ready for an anticipated five to seven new doctors to start seeing patients. The Tranquille site, which will be moving into some of the unoccupied space in the building, will have a focus on diabetes, lung and heart,
substance-abuse and mental-health conditions. The clinic in the shopping centre will have clinicians who deal with other health care based around the concept of providing home care. Both will also have family doctors in place to provide medical care, the result of a partnership between the division, Doctors of B.C. and the health ministry. A ministry spokesperson said each site will have a group of practitioners rather than a single doctor. The specialized services are being provided by Interior Health Authority. ”The patients will be attached to that clinic, which will be their regular team of family doctors/nurse practitioners,” the spokesperson said. “People would be able to make prescheduled or same-day appointments. There may be the ability to accommodate walk-ins, but this will be determined by the practice team once they are in place. There may be capacity to offer extended hours, but this will also have to be established as the family doctors and nurse practitioners are recruited.” It’s all part of a change in how medicine is practised, Bantock said, noting there was a time when “fewer doctors did so much more” and were also working at hospitals.

Kamloops will have a second nomination race before the May 2017 provincial election if a candidate-in-waiting is approved by the provincial NDP. Retired teacher and party member Lillian Kwan said Friday she has filed papers with the party to run in Kamloops-South Thompson and is awaiting its approval process. If the party gives the OK, she will line up against former city councillor Nancy Bepple for the nomination. “I’ve always been involved in politics behind the scenes,” said Kwan, who worked on federal NDP candidate Bill Sundhu’s campaign last year. “It seems everything is lining up for me.” Kwan said she discussed extensively the decision to run with her 21-year-old son.

“He said, ‘Mom, why don’t you? You’re so passionate.’” Kwan recounted. Peter Northcott, president of the NDP’s Kamloops-South Thompson riding association, said the party has yet to set a nomination meeting, noting early December is still possible. Kwan said she is well aware there is a cutoff date to sell memberships to supporters prior to a nomination meeting and has been recruiting people to her campaign. “I’ve been doing that all along,” she said. “I truly believe in the NDP and its priorities and principles — that’s why I decided to do this.” The party has acclaimed local union leader Barb Nederpel to run in Kamloops-North Thompson. The B.C. Liberal Party has acclaimed incumbent MLA and Transportation Minister Todd Stone in Kamloops-South Thompson.

The party has a three-way nomination race in Kamloops-North Thompson to replace Terry Lake, who will not run in the May 2017 election. Mayor Peter Milobar, North Shore Business Improvement Association executive director Steven Puhallo and Tobiano founder Mike Grenier are seeking the nomination and the candidate will be decided in a Nov. 19 vote among riding party members. The Greens have Coun. Donovan Cavers in Kamloops-South Thompson and Dan Hines in Kamloops-North Thompson. The Communist Party of B.C. is being represented by Peter Kerek in KamloopsNorth Thompson and by Beat Klossner in Kamloops-South Thompson. The B.C.

Communities compete for doctors From A1
That time has passed, Bantock said and the team approach to medicine is becoming more prevalent. Bantock said one of the realities that impacts doctor recruitment is competing communities. “Kamloops is very desirable, but so is Kelowna and Penticton and the Kootenays and the Island, he said. “There is so much choice and people are shopping around for the best fit for them and for their families.” The higher payment fee for services in rural communities is also an incentive for some doctors, he said, adding it’s encouraging to see doctors willing to set up their practices in rural areas. A major factor in the doctor shortage in the province, Bantock said, is the decision

made years ago to limit the number of students entering the University of British Columbia’s medicine program. “There was a huge cut [in enrolment]and that’s what we’re paying for now,” he said. While there is no cap on
the number of patients a doctor can have — and most have at least 1,500, he said, which can be a manageable number — the government restricts the number of patients a family physician can see in a day. After 50 patients, the fee for services is reduced by 50 per cent and, after 60 patients in a day, no fee is paid. The cap does not apply to specialists or doctors in remote areas. Bantock said there are physicians who want to see the cap removed, although he suspects it would just lead to longer work days. It remains an issue that is raised when there are discussions about the doctor-shortage situation. As for the new clinics, Bantock said the plan is a start, though he does not envision seven doctors in a readybuild clinic by January.

It was a quick stop, but long enough to seal his fate — he would not apply for any jobs that day. “Somebody stole my bike,” Nelson said, adding painters next door saw a man race off with the brown Norco Pinnacle and nearly hit their truck. Nelson cycles everywhere by necessity — not only does it get him around faster than walking, it causes less pain. At age six, he was diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, a disease causing joint inflammation and immobility. His knee is visibly
swollen under his jeans and he has trouble standing on his feet for too long, even simply putting weight on his left leg. It is the source of a limp, made worse still by a serious longboarding accident. “Some days I can walk, some days I can’t,” Nelson said. It has also made job hunting tricky, which is why he is getting help from the Aboriginal Training and Employment Centre. Nelson is worse off than when he started after having to borrow $200 to buy a new bike to get around and continue his search for work. When KTW visited, his new green wheels

were locked up in front of the centre, right where his old brown bike was stolen just days before. The financial burden only adds pressure for him to find work. “It was paid for with money I don’t have,” Nelson said. ATEC receptionist Sheila Langlois has watched Nelson work hard and is upset about the situation. “He’s a good kid and it really pissed me off,” she said. “Why doesn’t it happen to some turkey instead of somebody who’s trying to do something to get into a better place?” The centre is similar to WorkBC, offering job
search tools, resources and employment counsellors, but for First Nations people. It is funded through the Shuswap Nation Tribal Council. Nelson is doubtful he’ll find his old bike because he never wrote down the serial number. He does have one job lead — dishwashing on-call — but is hoping to find something more permanent: full-time or “at least two part-time jobs.” He will continue the hunt, but has learned one valuable lesson. “As soon as I get a job, I’m going to get a better lock,” Nelson said. “I’m going to get one of the u-locks.”

McLeod poll suggests voters want a referendum

2016-2017
SERVING THE COMMUNITY
A narrow majority of voters polled in the federal riding of Kamloops-Thompson-Cariboo want a referendum on whether Canada’s voting system should change, while 26 per cent don’t want a ballot. The remainder are unsure. The results come from a robo-survey on electoral reform conducted last week by Conservative MP Cathy McLeod McLeod said the poll she commissioned with a professional firm (delayed because companies are heavily involved in the American election campaign) made 8,800 calls across the riding, with 736 people answering three questions regarding electoral reform: 1) Did you know the voting system is about to change? Yes: 56 per cent
No: 26 per cent Unsure: 18.5 per cent 2) Do you agree our voting system should change? Yes: 28 per cent No: 40 per cent Unsure: 32 per cent 3) Do you think we should have a referendum on whether our voting system should change? Yes: 51 per cent No: 26 per cent Unsure: 23 per cent Results will be forwarded to a parliamentary committee studying electoral reform The survey comes in the wake of last year’s federal election campaign, when the Liberals promised, if elected, the October 2015 election would be the last held under the current first-past-the-post electoral system. The Conservatives have demanded a referendum before
BLITHE SPIRIT
any changes are made with the way ballots are cast. “These results not only clearly indicate that residents want a referendum, it is also important to note that 59 per cent of the respondents don’t want the current system to change,” McLeod said in a statement. That 59 per cent represents decided voters only. A local citizens’ committee was formed this past summer to study electoral reform. It held a town hall meeting and other forums to gather input. Its report will recommend the Liberal government implement some kind of proportional representation system to ensure seats in the House of Commons more closely represent each party’s share of the popular vote.

Teck mum on union claims DALE BASS
STAFF REPORTER
dale@kamloopsthisweek.com
The management spokesman for Teck Highland Valley said he is bound by internal policies and can’t comment on a dispute that has broken out between the company and its unionized employees. However, Pete Martell, superintendent of environment and community affairs, said it is “a good assumption” when KTW asked if the crux of the investigation it is now conducting into leaves by union members lies in interpretation of the contract. Teck is looking at a recent situation in which some of its employees took a union leave — which means the United Steelworkers Local 7619 would reimburse the company wages for the lost work time — to volunteer at the Kamloops Food Bank. Local 7619 president Kyle Wolff has linked the action to the state of bargaining for a new contract with Teck, a process that began last month. Martell said he can’t comment on that, either. He did say, however, the mining company has a long history of support in area communities, including the food bank. In the past several years, it has also been the biggest donor to the United Way ThompsonNicola-Cariboo campaign. That internal campaign begins on Oct. 26. Martell also could not comment on Wolff’s complaint that two of the union’s bargaining committee members were docked pay — although bargaining costs for employees are also reimbursed by Steelworkers — when they had to leave the talks for emergency family matters.

ADDING VOICES TO COURT CASES
I
t’s not always just individuals who are affected by a crime. Sometimes the community as a whole also suffers consequences. These can be financial in nature or a blow dealt to the collective psyche. Until now, these impacts have only nebulously been considered in court cases, but British Columbia communities will soon be changing that. The B.C. Ministry of Public Safety and Solicitor General has announced communities and organizations will now be allowed to submit impact statements, much like victims can now make statements to the court before sentencing. The judge will be able to weigh these statements in his or her sentence. Statements will “describe the emotional, physical and financial impacts of an offence on a community,” reads a statement from the province. They can include “local or regional economic impacts, the emotional toll on the community members that resulted from hearing about and responding to the offence and details of how the offence has limited or curtailed community members’ access to a particular facility or service.” Community-impact statements can be made by a local organization, civic government, religious organizations or First Nations community. It’s a move of which we approve. In many cases, the larger community is also a victim and now it has a say.

Focus on homelessness
T
his week is Homelessness Action Week. Most of us are recovering from a weekend stuffing our faces with turkey and mashed potatoes. The season is beginning to shift and a crispness is starting to greet us as we leave home each morning. Though it’s 2016 and we live in one of the most affluent nations on earth, sadly, there are still members of our community who do not have adequate housing. In 2012, the Kamloops affordable housing needs assessment clearly identified housing needs of all types in Kamloops. According to the assessment, our community was short 2,222 units (99 temporary supported, 120 subsidized, 1,632 private-market rental and 371 entry-level ownership). Some moderate progress has been made since 2012, but partnership from provincial and federal governments has been severely lacking. Numerous properties in Kamloops are zoned for affordable housing and the lands have been made available to agencies wanting to utilize them. Up to $150,000 is available through the city’s affordable housing reserve fund for new housing projects. The fund is not at more than $1 million and has been growing in part through funds raised via the sale of units from previously supported housing projects. A local project that has had significant success in reducing homelessness in our community is the Kamloops Rent Bank, administered by the Elizabeth Fry Society and supported by the city. The bank helps renters who face imminent eviction with a

CITY HALL one-time low interest loan. The bank gives them a second chance to regain their footing, thereby helping them avoid what would otherwise be a tumultuous situation. The repayment rate has been quite good at 85 per cent, with repayment funds being recycled into the program. Homelessness Action Week culminates with a large event, Project Connect, in Spirit Square on Thursday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The event aims to connect disadvantaged members of our community with important services and community agencies. I hope to see you there! n On another note . . . At the Sept. 13th council meeting, medical health officer Dr. Silvina Mema presented city council with a strong case to remain open to the concept of a supervised drug consumption site to help curtail the rash of drug overdose deaths in our city. Both health and enforcements officials agree the best way to reduce the damage caused by illicit drug use is the Four Pillar approach, which is more nuanced compared to the rather aggressive tactics of the past.
The four pillars are harm reduction, prevention, treatment and enforcement. Last year, the BC Coroners Service reported seven drug overdose deaths in Kamloops. In just the first six months of 2016, there were 22 documented overdose deaths in our city. Something very serious is happening and fentanyl seems to be the primary culprit. Council, working with other levels of government responsible for health, is willing to investigate all options that will minimize this flurry of tragedies and a supervised consumption site is on the table. From what I’ve read, one reason fentanyl deaths have become so rampant is that fentanyl is nearly impossible to detect. It can be ordered online and mailed. Law-enforcement officials are developing methods to detect it and cut it off before it arrives in our communities. The RCMP is also lobbying upper levels of government to have them restrict the sale of pill presses so gangs cannot so easily manufacture products that may be cut with all manner of substances. There are strong links between homelessness, mental health and susceptibility to hard drug use. A lot of work by all levels of government remains to be done to help stop what is happening to many disadvantaged members of our community. It all comes down to making it a priority.

YOUR OPINION LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
HARM REDUCTION REDUCES DEATHS Editor: As Kamloops and other municipalities contend with the current overdose epidemic, much discussion has focused on how best to respond. Most experts agree that we need a comprehensive system that includes scaling up access to evidence-based addiction treatment. However, it would be irresponsible to let people die because we failed to simultaneously implement services, such as supervised injection sites, which have been proven to reduce overdose deaths and are cost-effective. In criticizing such services, Sharlene Klein (see online letter of Oct. 5: Use health-care
dollars on treatment and recovery, not supervised drug-use sites) has grossly misrepresented the research on Insite. The evaluation of Insite was not clinical trial and more than 2,000 individuals who inject drugs were included the evaluation. Further, the more than 40 peer-reviewed studies of Insite were authored by dozens of scientists from several Canadian universities — as well as scientists from the U.S., Britain and Australia. Unlike the anti-supervised injecting site reports cited by Klein, the research on Insite has been subjected to independent peer review and published in the world’s most
prestigious medical and public health journals and has been endorsed by the Canadian Medical Association, the Canadian Nurses Association and the Canadian Public Health Association. Although more addiction treatment is clearly needed, excluding evidence-based harm reduction programs will do little to save lives and precious healthcare resources.

STRICTER DRUG LAWS NEEDED BIG PHARMA CANNOT PROFIT FROM HEALTHY PEOPLE
Editor: Russian roulette and drug use have one thing in common recently — they both may kill you. With new drugs being cut into almost all recreational drugs, you never know what is loaded and what isn’t. The federal government needs to enact new laws giving police the right to charge dealers with attempted murder if they sell drugs tested to have overdose quantities of fentanyl or
other drugs. The police could use plea bargain tactics to reduce the charge or sentence if they give up their suppliers. That way they could possibly get to the source. Kamloops is not Vancouver and the drug use is not all in one area. Where can we put a safe injection site they would use? The safest place would be the new medical building at the hospital. But would users from Valleyview and
the North Shore travel to use it? Would it be cheaper to supply the antidote through the health units the way they supply condoms and drug needles? The advertising to inject or use with a friend and give it a half hour before the friend uses may save lives. I don’t have all the answers but hopefully someone can give suggestions that may be worth trying.
Jay Barlow Kamloops
Editor: The Canadian government is proposing to change the natural health products (NHP) regulations to regulate many NHP using the same rules as drugs. NHP are different in nature from drugs and must be treated differently. Our pre-market approval system respects traditional values from many different cultures and allows Canadians freedom of choice and access to these important products. Changing the NHP regulations is trying to fix a system that is not broken. This proposed legislation reeks of crony capitalism big time and health-food stores estimate they will lose half of their products.
Here’s a rhetorical question: Who will profit from their loss? My health depends on the vitamin, mineral and herbal supplements available to me. Removing them from healthfood stores would be an atrocious crime. For those of you who care about your health, please go online to http://www.pushpolitics.ca/clients/chfa/index.html. There is a form letter on this site, addressed to your member of Parliament, that protests this usurpation of your rights to freedom of choice and lets your view be known to the minister of health.

More doses of naloxone needed in overdoses STAFF REPORTER
dale@kamloopsthisweek.com
Two-thirds of reported opioid overdoses in the province being treated by naloxone require more than one injection of the drug. That figure is double what was seen in 2014, said Dr. Jane Buxton of the B.C. Centre for Disease Control and its harmreduction lead. It’s what led the province to increase the number of ampoules (sealed glass capsule containing the medication) in take-home naloxone kits. They now include three each of ampoules and retractable safety syringes. Buxton, an epidemiologist, headed the team that started the take-home program. Naloxone can quickly reverse respiratory depression caused by an opioid overdose. The kits are now available at pharmacies without the need for a prescription and at many health-care clinics. Royal Inland Hospital was the first in the country to use them in its emergency department. Firefighters and police are also equipped with them and some universities have them on site. Dr. Ian Mitchell of Kamloops,
Don’t fall for CRA scam
who spearheaded the program, said sometimes people overdosing require to four milligrams of naloxone. The ampoules contain .8 milligrams. The health ministry reports at least 13,000 of the kits have been distributed for free to 300 sites in the province. It’s all done in an attempt to quell what the province’s medical officer of health, Dr. Perry Kendall, has declared a publichealth emergency as the number of deaths soar. At the end of August, there had been 488 overdose deaths, many involving fentanyl. In the Interior Health Authority area, there had been 80 overdose deaths, 23 of them in Kamloops. Naloxone, also known by its trade name Narcan, can quickly reverse an opiate overdose. If it’s used on someone not experiencing an overdose — they may be drunk to excess and manifesting similar symptoms — it won’t harm them. Buxton said naloxone’s effect, however, wears off within about 20 minutes, which is why part of the training that comes when one obtains a kit is the warning to first call 911. The training also advises the person administering the drug — it can go into any muscle
The Canada Revenue Agency scam is alive and well and recently resulted in an 80-year-old Kamloops man being ripped off for $8,000. Kamloops RCMP Cpl. Jodi Shelkie said the scammer phoned the senior and told him there had been errors on his 2015 tax return and if he didn’t purchase $4,000 worth of gift cards, two “officers” would come to his home and arrest him.
and can be done through clothing, if necessary — should wait for a few minutes to see if it has had an effect. If the symptoms don’t appear to be subsiding, another dose should be administered. Buxton said she knows of cases where all three ampoules in the kit were used. First responders should be at the site by then — or within the 20 minutes the drug is active — and can take over providing medical care. Carfentanil — a drug 100 times more potent than fentanyl and 10,000 times more potent than morphine — has recently been seen in Canada. There were two overdoses from the drug in Winnipeg last week. In August, border officials intercepted a one-kilogram package of the drug headed to Calgary from China. Police said a dose as small as 20 micrograms — about .02 of a milligram — can be fatal. The drug, used as a tranquilizer for animals the size of elephants, is so dangerous veterinarians who use it must wear protective clothing, a face shield and gloves. Carfentanil has been found in overdoses in the U.S.; in Cincinnati, firefighters report using up to six doses of naloxone to reverse the carfentanil.
The man went to a local store, purchased gift cards and gave the authorization numbers to the fraudster on the phone. The scammer then demanded another $4,000 in gift cards and again the victim complied. When the scammer asked for another $3,000 in gift cards, the store employee told the senior he was being defrauded and police were called.

DENVER — Parents watching Sunday night’s presidential debate with their children faced a dilemma: Let their kids witness political history or send them to bed early to avoid an awkward conversation? The debate started with a question from an audience member who asked whether the candidates feel they are modeling appropriate behaviour for youth, noting that “the last presidential debate could’ve been rated as MA — mature audiences.’’ It quickly proved to be an apt observation. The second question, from CNN’s Anderson Cooper, was about Republican nominee Donald Trump’s vulgar 2005 comments describing grabbing
women’s genitals. Trump responded by calling it locker room talk, then began talking about the Islamic State group “chopping off heads’’ and “drowning people in steel cages.’’ Elliot Fladen, who was watching the debate at a private club in Denver with his daughters Dagny, 5, and Areli, 2, quickly checked to make sure the older girl had in her earbuds. “They’re too busy playing Minecraft and other things to pay attention,’’ said Fladen, 36, a Libertarian who said he’s considering voting for Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton because he can’t imagine Trump as president. “If they wonder what’s going on, I’ll explain it to them in an appropriate way.’’ Sarah Parsons Fein, 38, of Tempe, Ariz., also
tried to distract her young children, who tuned in and out of the debate as it played at their home. The stay-at-home mom found some of it disturbing for her three kids, ages three to nine, including the discussion about Trump’s lewd comments about women. “When they started talking about grabbing women’s genitals, I kind of wanted to do a dance in front of them, like, ‘Hey, look at Mommy!’’ she joked. Parsons Fein said she has discussed rape culture with her older children, but worries about the impact if Trump gets elected. “I’m not sure that I want my children to know that someone can say and do such terrible things and still be president,’’ she said. Drew Bauer, 45, of Scottsdale, Ariz., was
a little worried about letting his 10-year-old son and eight-year-old daughter watch the debate, but felt that it was important for them to see it. “If it was bad, then I figured it was worthwhile for them to watch — even if it was bad,’’ he said. The kids stuck through most of it before they got bored and fell asleep. The small-business owner said his children know the “PG version’’ of what’s recently happened and that they have asked questions, but they mostly want to know for whom their dad is voting. Bauer and his wife are registered independents. He said he was on the fence about voting for Libertarian presidential candidate Gary Johnson, but he’s decided on Clinton.
Ryan won’t defend Trump Speaker Paul Ryan is not un-endorsing Donald Trump. And his office said he’s not conceding that Hillary Clinton will be the next president.
Ryan told Republican lawmakers in a conference call yesterday that he will spend “his entire energy making sure that Hillary Clinton does not get
a blank check with a Democrat-controlled Congress.’’ Several pro-Trump lawmakers interpreted that as a defeatist attitude. They spoke on condition of anonymity because the conversation was private. Ryan said on the
call that he does not plan to defend the Republican nominee or campaign for him over the next 30 days. He said the Republicans’ House majority is in peril. — The Associated Press

Ottawa warned about law that stripped citizenship THE CANADIAN PRESS
VANCOUVER — The Canadian government was aware and warned repeatedly years before an arcane law began stripping longtime Canadians of their citizenship, says a man who spent decades lobbying for change. Bill Janzen, the former head of the Mennonite Central Committee’s office in Ottawa, said he and his colleagues met with the federal government throughout the 1980s and 1990s to try to fix the so-called 28-year rule. The provision was part of a 1977 law that automatically removed citizenship from people born abroad to Canadian parents who were also born outside the country. “The government holds a big responsibility for this,’’ Janzen said. “They’ve created
John McCallum could not be reached for comment, but a spokeswoman for Citizenship and Immigration Canada said in an email the government advised those affected “when possible’’ of the need to apply before the age of 28 to retain their citizenship. “As we do not have data on the number of individuals who might have been impacted, we

a mess.’’ The law applies to people born between Feb. 15, 1977, and April 16, 1981, no matter how quickly after their birth they moved to Canada. It was rescinded in 2009, but the change didn’t apply retroactively. The only way to prevent the automatic loss of citizenship was to apply to retain it before the age of 28 — a detail legal experts contend the government failed to adequately communicate to those affected. Janzen said he has heard numerous stories of people going to citizenship officials and being told they had never heard of the law. Janzen has helped more than 180 people navigate the expensive and time-intensive process of regaining their citizenship over the years, So far, 160 requests have been approved. Immigration Minister

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT Left: Janet Michael (left), Krista Colosimo, Anita Wittenberg, Stephen Gartner and Christopher Weddell star in Blithe Spirit, now playing at Sagebrush Theatre. The Noel Coward play is directed by Ashley Corcoran. Right: Thompson Rivers University theatre-arts graduate Kelsey Gilker plays Edith, the maid in the Condomine family.

WCT’s Blithe Spirit a wild supernatural romp CHRISTOPHER FOULDS
KTW EDITOR
editor@kamloopsthisweek.com
In the Western Canada Theatre program for its current play, Blithe Spirit (a co-production with Thousand Islands Playhouse of Gananoque, Ont.), is a quote by the play’s author, Noel Coward: “I’m not a heavy drinker. I can sometimes go for hours without touching a drop.” Those taking in Blithe Spirit at Sagebrush Theatre will go at least two hours without imbibing, but it is unlikely they will go more than a few minutes without laughing. The play Coward called the best he ever wrote was first performed in 1941 and led to the movie version of 1945 (though with a markedly different ending from the play that changes the entire structure and which Coward himself detested). Theatre lovers will know how the play evolves and ends — and many in the Sagebrush seats may even taken in previous productions of Blithe Spirit. But it is what the actors on the Kamloops stage do with the characters they inhabit that makes attending a Western Canada Theatre production so enjoyable.
You can see the same play in various venues, but the productions are unique in the hands of the cast and crew delivering it to you. Such is the case with this Ashley Corcorandirected play. For those who have never heard of Blithe Spirit, a quick summary: Novelist Charles Condomine has invited eccentric medium Madame Arcati to his house as research for his next book. Arcati arrives and amuses Charles, wife Ruth and guests Dr. and Mrs. Bradman. But things get real wacky when the medium somehow raises the ghost of Charles’ first wife, Elvira. Tying the one-room play together is Edith the maid, who in the end plays a crucial role in the storyline. Charles is played by Steven Gartner in his WCT debut. Gartner, a National Theatre School of Canada grad, delivers big time, his presence and cadence helping set the frenetic pace of the play. Krista Colosimo as Charles’ wife is as effective, particularly in her scenes when confronting Elvira, who Krista cannot see. Madame Arcati is Anita Wittenberg of Kamloops in a madcap performance that resonates.
She takes the character and has it overtake the stage with a physicality equal to a workout every night. Edith the maid garners much of the audience’s laughter thanks to Kelsey Gilker’s talents. Gilker is a graduate of the Thompson Rivers University theatre-arts program. Christopher Weddell as Dr. Bradman and Janet Michael as his wife are solid in their supporting roles, delivering well-timed lines in a play that requires attention to pace of dialogue. The focus of the play, though, is Elvira, the deceased first wife of Charles who is summoned from the afterlife to create so much mayhem in Casa Condomine. As Elvira, Shannon
Currie (also a graduate of the National Theatre School of Canada), dominates the stage in an ethereal wardrobe that has her seemingly gliding across the room as she works toward a reunion with Charles. Blithe Spirit is a fastpaced, funny play that should be seen if you are looking to take it something interesting, something done with passion, something with more zest than a night in front of Netflix. As a non-regular patron of live theatre, I am always amazed at how much a production mere feet from my eyes can be so thrilling. There may have been a faux pas or two on stage Friday night, but I will leave that to a professional theatre critic to dissect. For the great
unwashed like me, the performances were topnotch. Kudos should also go to those behind the scenes for crafting such a performance. The set design was perfect for what Coward envisioned,
as were the lines delivered by the actors, all of which was made possible by the likes of stage manager Isabelle Ly, set and costume designer Dana Osborne, dialect coach Alison Deon and many others.
Blithe Spirit continues to Oct. 15 at Sagebrush Theatre, including a pay-what-you-can 2 p.m. matinee on Oct. 15. For ticket information, go online to wctlive.ca or kamloopslive.com or call 250-374-5483.

IT’S HOME SHOW SEASON
Smoke alarms focus of Fire Prevention Week
KTW FILE PHOTO
The 2016 Kamloops Fall Home Show returns to Sandman Centre this weekend, with Saturday hours from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday hours from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. As always, admission is free and visitors will be able to visit dozens of booths. Last year’s show included exhibitor Spa Berry.
Don’t wait—check the date and replace smoke alarms every 10 years. Smoke alarms save lives, but did you know that smoke alarms have an expiration date? Smoke alarms that are more than 10 years old should be replaced. That is the message Kamloops firefighters are promoting during this year’s Fire Prevention Week. Until Saturday, Oct. 15, fire departments across British Columbia and North America will be working to educate the public about the importance of fire safety and the importance of having working smoke alarms. Fire Prevention Week is held annually and highlights an important theme in fire education. This year’s theme — Don’t wait, check the date! — focuses on raising awareness that smoke alarms expire and to replace smoke alarms every 10 years to keep families safe. To find out how old your
smoke alarm is, look at the date of manufacture on the back of the alarm. The alarm should be replaced 10 years from that date. The history of National Fire Prevention Week has it roots in the great Chicago Fire that occurred on Oct. 8, 1871, and killed some 300 people, left 100,000 homeless and destroyed more than 17,000 structures. The popular story is that a cow knocked over an oil lamp in the O’Leary barn. Although the cause of the fire is still officially undetermined, it has been established the O’Learys were asleep at the time the fire started. The the massive inferno swiftly took its toll, burning more than 809 hectares (2,000 acres) in 27 hours. In Canada, the first national Fire Prevention Day proclamation was issued by the Governor General in 1919. From the beginning, it was apparent a united effort
between Canada and the U.S. would give the work greater impetus. As a result, fire-prevention organizations in both countries have always supported a common date at federal, state, provincial and municipal levels. Fire Prevention Week falls in the week that includes Oct. 9. Students in Kindergarten to Grade 3 are invited to enter the Fire Prevention Week 2016 iPad Contest. The iPad contest is jointly sponsored by the Office of the Fire Commissioner, the BC Fire Chiefs’ Association, the Fire Training Officers’ Association of BC, the Fire Prevention Officers’ Association of BC, Fortis BC and First Nations’ Emergency Services Society. A student in each of B.C.’s five fire regions will win one iPad, as well as one student from a First Nations bandoperated school. For more information on fire safety tips, including Fire Prevention Week resources, go online to gov.bc.ca/firesafety.

STAFF REPORTER
adam@kamloopsthisweek.com
With the Thompson Rivers WolfPack swimming team ready for its first competition of the season this weekend, KTW caught up with 17-yearold freshman Joelle Young. KTW: What got you into swimming, Joelle? Joelle Young: My mom was a swimmer when she was younger. I’ve always been around the pool, so it came naturally — I was always in the water. KTW: Do you have a favourite brand of swimwear? JY: Speedo, I guess. It just fits my body better. There’s Arena and then there’s other stuff, but Speedo has always been my favourite.
KTW: How do you know your goggles are tight enough? JY: I’m not sure [laughs]. Just when I dive in, practise diving. I tighten them really tight, just to make sure. You know when you have goggle marks. KTW: What’s your training regimen like? JY: We train six days a week, but we normally train two- to three-hours a day, with dryland and extra running, too. KTW: Do you find there’s crossover with running and swimming? JY: Yes. I enjoy it. I think it helps a lot. KTW: How long have you been swimming for? JY: As long as I can remember. Competitively, since six. KTW: What’s one thing people don’t know about
JOIN OUR TEAM!
competitive swimming? JY: I don’t think they realize how much we actually train for it. They kind of just assume we go in, swim, whatever. But, they underestimate how much we train and work. KTW: Runners deal with cramps. Do swimmers? JY: Oh yeah. You just push through it and hope it goes away. KTW: What do you think about when you swim? Are you focused only on the race? Do you do something to occupy your mind? JY: It goes everywhere. Sometimes I’m thinking about what I want for dinner — not the best idea, but sometimes it’s helpful. Normally I’m focused on, “OK, I can push harder. This person is right next to me, I need to catch up.”
KTW: Do you set landmarks as you swim? Like saying, “I want to be caught up to this person by the wall?” JY: I guess so, in a way. You try to do your own race, but if you do see someone ahead, you say, “OK, I need to catch up by this point [in the pool].” KTW: Do you have a favourite post-training meal? JY: I’ll eat anything [laughs]. KTW: What’s the worst part of being a swimmer? JY: I get really tired easily, so not much of a social life. Everyone wants to hang out and I need to go sleep. KTW: What’s the best part? JY: I love the team, it’s so much fun. I love all the people and how hard they work. I’ve really realized that here. This Q&A has been edited for brevity.
The Thompson Rivers WolfPack expect to send six athletes to the 2016 Canada West Swimming Championships in Edmonton this year, double the contingent that attended the conference championship last season. The Wolves, a six-member club, will begin their season with the Penticton Pentathlon, which runs from Friday to Sunday. The Canada West Championships begin on Nov. 27 and run until Nov. 29. “I kind of feel like we’re sitting on the tip of an iceberg right now,” WolfPack coach Brad Dalke told KTW. “All of a sudden, the word of our varsity program here in Kamloops is finally getting out and actually being heard. The inquiries are starting to come. We’re really looking forward to going forward from this point.” Thompson Rivers will be a relatively young team again in 2016, with two returning swimmers and four rookies. Jagdeesh Uppal is back for his final season of university competition, while Taylor Carmichael will swim for the second season under the WolfPack banner. Rookies Gabrielle Dagasso (Kamloops), Joelle Young (Fort McMurray), Kaitlan Howard (Revelstoke) and Brayden Gilliam (Salmon Arm) round out the team. With all four of the WolfPack’s women expected to be at the conference championship, Dalke said the program will also have relay teams in the field for the first time in its three-year history. “Once you start to get four or five kids, it’s just nice to post the relay teams to start to develop a little bit of traction in terms of the team championships and all that stuff,” he said. “We’ll still be down at the bottom of the spectrum, but now we’re starting to see ourselves starting to pick away at Regina and those places.”

Right in your backyard! Only 20 minutes from Kamloops Brittny Werstiuk carries the ball for the NorKam Saints in the gold medal game of the tier 2 B.C. High School Girls’ Rugby Association Provincial Championships hosted in Kamloops earlier this year.
Succeeding with sevens INAUGURAL B.C. TOURNAMENT COMING TO KAMLOOPS THIS MONTH ADAM WILLIAMS STAFF REPORTER adam@kamloopsthisweek.com
The Tournament Capital will be home to the inaugural BC Rugby Girls’ Invitational Rugby Sevens Tournament. The all-girls invitational will be held at Exhibition Park from Oct. 21 to Oct. 23 and will feature three divisions — under-14, U16 and U18. The tournament marks the first time a U14 division will be held for girls’ rugby in British Columbia. “The girls did so well in Rio, there was more interest in sevens,” said Darcy Patterson, rugby development officer for BC Rugby and the organizer of the tournament. “There isn’t really many organized sevens tournaments. After the BC Summer Games were such a success this year, I was
After the BC Summer Games were “such a success this year, I was like, ‘We need something else.”

like, ‘We need something else.’” The event is expected to feature 19 teams from around the province, including sides from Prince Rupert, Fort St. John, Vancouver Island, Dawson Creek and the Lower Mainland. Salmon Arm will field teams in both U16 and U18 competition. Merritt will have a U18 team, as will Kamloops. Patterson said Abbotsford, Vancouver, Vancouver Island and Kamloops are expected to be among the top teams in the tournament. Sevens rugby has been increasingly popular since Canada’s women’s team won
a bronze medal at the 2016 Olympic Summer Games in Rio de Janeiro. Patterson said the popularity of sevens has been impressive, but she doesn’t expect 15s to fade into the background. “I think it’s kind of a mix,” she said. “I think there definitely are more people that are interested in sevens and who really like it, but I think there is still that strong base of 15s, people who enjoy it as well.” For more information, contact Patterson by email at dpatterson@bcrugby.com, or go online to bcrugby.com.

JOSHUA CLIPPERTON
THE CANADIAN PRESS
VANCOUVER — There won’t be any mixed messages coming from the Vancouver Canucks this season. After spending a couple of years trying to nurture young talent while remaining competitive, the club has one goal in 2016-2017 — a return to the playoffs. Getting there, however, could prove to be a big challenge. “There’s always a lot of ‘ifs’ when you’re trying to develop guys and maybe rebuild a little bit or retool,’’ said Canucks’ captain Henrik Sedin. “You need guys to develop and that’s not always easy. You look at guys early on and you think: ‘He’s going to be a No. 1 centre or a first-line player or a second-line player,’ but it’s not always going to be that way. “There are a lot of ‘ifs.’ But looking at this year and how much they want it, it gives us confidence that it’s going to happen.’’ The “they’’ Sedin is referencing is a core of youngsters who got what the franchise hopes
is valuable experience during a lost 2015-2016 campaign that saw Vancouver miss the postseason for the second time in three years. The Canucks compiled an abysmal 31-3813 record, good for 28th overall, and their lowest point total (75) since the late 1990s. But among the very few positives was the emergence of Sven Baertschi and Bo Horvat as legitimate point producers up front, while defenceman Ben Hutton surprised in his rookie season. However, with Henrik Sedin and brother
Daniel now 36, the Canucks knew their window to win with the superstar twins was closing — some observers argue it has already realistically been slammed shut — and made a series of moves in the summer to bolster the club. General manager Jim Benning acquired bruising defenceman Erik Gudbranson in a trade with Florida before dipping into the free-agent market and signing forward Loui Eriksson to a six-year, US$36-million deal from Boston. The Canucks are also hopeful Brandon
Sutter’s injury woes are behind him after the centre played just 20 games in his first season for Vancouver, giving the club three significant pieces it didn’t have last season. “Bringing Loui is going to help us a lot, and a healthy Sutter as well,’’ said Henrik Sedin. “You get guys playing where they feel comfortable. That’s key if you want to succeed.’’ Eriksson, who played on a line with the Sedins for Sweden at the World Cup of Hockey and looks set to do the same with the Canucks, said he had a good feeling about
Vancouver’s direction before agreeing to terms on July 1. “They had some injuries to some key guys last season,’’ said the 31-year-old. “Everyone is fresh and healthy right now and ready to go.’’ Alexander Edler, who also missed a big chunk of last season because of injury, will anchor the No. 1 defence pairing with Christopher Tanev, while Horvat and Sutter will centre the second and third lines behind the Sedins “We’re here to win,’’ said Sutter. “There won’t be any excuses for what
happened last year.’’ Head coach Willie Desjardins made the playoffs in his first season in Vancouver, but the team took a big step backwards last year and he could be on the hot seat if the season does not go well. Staying healthy and having success on the power play will be instrumental — the Sedins, Eriksson and Sutter looked sharp in limited exhibition action — if the Canucks are going to have any chance at climbing up the standings in the Western Conference after winding up a horrendous 27th with the man advantage in 2015-2016. “When we were struggling, we became a little stagnant,’’ said Henrik Sedin. “We moved the puck, but we never really felt in sync.’’ Meanwhile, 36-yearold Ryan Miller is back as Vancouver’s No. 1 goalie, with Jacob Markstrom eager to carry more of the workload.
Miller was 17-24-9 last season, but had solid numbers otherwise with a 2.70 goals-against average and a .916 save percentage for a team that finished second to last in scoring. “There’s that sense there’s something to prove,’’ said Miller. “I hope we can take energy from the different points of motivation and do something really fun, really special.’’ But with Edmonton and Calgary looking stronger, and San Jose, Los Angeles and Anaheim always tough in the Pacific Division, it might be difficult for Vancouver to achieve its stated goal of a return to the playoffs. And while experts and oddsmakers have the Canucks pegged for a similar finish to last season, or worse, Henrik Sedin sees positives in the mix of veterans and youth. “It looks way better than it did last year with the young guys now and the way they finished off,’’ he said. “If they can stay at that level and maybe get to another level, then it looks a lot better for us.’’

Dolores (Grandnan) will be deeply missed by her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren along with close relatives and friends. A prairie girl at heart and a teacher in a one-room schoolhouse, her passions in life included reading, curling, crocheting, music and dancing. Dolores had a great love of animals and possessed a green thumb when it came to plants and gardens. She also enjoyed cooking and baking for all of her family to gather around and enjoy. Her kindheartedness and goodwill towards others touched many and she will always be with us. As per her request, there will be no funeral, however, donations to the Marjorie Willoughby Snowden Hospice in Kamloops would be appreciated and we thank them for their outstanding care and kindness.
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.
The Ship by Henry Van Dyke
I am standing upon the seashore. A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the blue ocean. She is on object of beauty & strength & I stand & watch her, until at length, she is only a speck of white cloud just wheret he seas & sky meet and mingle with each other. Then someone at my side exclaims, “There, she’s gone!” Gone where? Gone from my sight, that is all. She is just as large as she was when she left my side & just as able to bear her load of living freight to the place of her destination. Her diminished size is in me, not her.
We would like to thank all of the caregivers, nurses and doctors that took such good care of Dave. Ridgeview Lodge, Royal Inland Hospital – Especially the staff of 6 South and Marjorie Willoughby Snowden Hospice House. In lieu of flowers, you can make a donation to the Alzheimer Society of BC, PO Box 277, Station M, Kamloops, BC V2C 5K6 or the Kamloops Hospice Association, 72 Whiteshield Crescent South, Kamloops, BC V2E 2S9. We will hold a Celebration of Life for Dave on Saturday, October 15th, 2016 from 1:00 pm – 4:00 pm at the home of Lorelee and Randy Ruygrok, 2475 Tranquille Road, Kamloops, BC (250) 314-7343– come out and share your stories and memories of Dave.
And just at the moment when someone at my side says she is gone, there are other eyes watching for her coming and other voices ready to take up the glad shout “There she comes!”.
Condolences may be emailed to the family from www.kamloopsfuneralhome.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.
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.

Footprints
Caroline Frances Farina On Friday, May 27, 2016 Caroline Farina of Saratoga, California passed away at the age of 99 years.
One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord. Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene, he noticed two set of footprints in the sand: one belonging to him, and the other to the Lord.
Carol received her early education at the Beresford School, then transferred to St. Ann’s Academy, Kamloops where she graduated at sixteen years old. She wished to go into nursing school but was too young so she went to UBC for two years. She returned to Kamloops and attended nursing school at Royal Inland Hospital. After graduating with the top marks in the provincial exams she nursed at Tranquille Hospital. After two years, she returned to UBC and finished her BSN Degree. She worked as a public health nurse in Vancouver for several years. She later went on to McGill University in Montreal and received a Masters Degree.
When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at the footprints in the sand. He noticed that many times along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times in his life. This really bothered him and he questioned the Lord about it. “Lord, you said that once I decided to followed you, you’d walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times of life, there is only one set of footprints. I don’t understand why, when I needed you most, you would leave me.”
In 1960, Carol decided to join her sister Dorothy in Sunnyvale, California. During her working career Carol travelled extensively. Carol is mourned by her sister-in-law Trudy Farina of Williams Lake, BC, numerous nieces and nephews. Carol was predeceased by her parents Stephen and Susan, three brothers Andrew, George and Michael, four sisters Josephine Tisdale, Pauline Farina, Irene Frolek and Dorothy Farina.
The Lord replied, “My precious, precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you saw only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you.”
A Memorial Mass will be held at Sacred Heart Cathedral, 255 Nicola St, Kamloops, BC with Father Andrew L’Heureux on Friday, October 14, 2016 at 1:00 pm. Interment in the family plot at Hillside Cemetery.

Growler pegs Red Collar at No. 8 in B.C. ANDREA KLASSEN STAFF REPORTER andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com
Jared Tarswell and co-owner Ryan Phillips hope to have Kamloops’ newest craft brewery, Iron Road Brewing Company, open by next spring or summer. DAVE EAGLES/KTW
PAVING THE WAY FOR IRON ROAD ANDREA KLASSEN STAFF REPORTER andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com
The warehouse on Camosun Crescent off McGill Road is empty, save for a few piles of insulation and construction debris. But less than a week after taking over the space, Jared Tarswell can see the outlines of what will eventually become the Iron Road Brewing Company, the city’s newest craft brewery. A front office space will make way for a tasting room, as well as a filling station for the refillable take home containers known as growlers. While there will be some separation in the form of a bar, Tarswell hopes the brewery itself will be fully on view to customers, with no walls or glass in the way. “You can get all the smells and the brewery atmosphere in the front,” he said. “That’s what a lot of breweries are doing now. All four of them in Port Moody are like that — all open.” Tarswell and co-owner Ryan Phillips
are new to the beer game — appreciation for a good pint notwithstanding. Both geologists, they came up with the idea of Iron Road as an alternative to day jobs and cities that no longer seemed right for their lifestyles. “We lived in Vancouver and it’s starting to get really hard to start a family in Vancouver,” Tarswell said, noting he and Phillips both come from Interior communities and had fond memories of Kamloops. “Vancouver was really nice, don’t get me wrong, but this is more like home.” And in a province with more than 130 active breweries, a city with only one craft brewery is fast becoming unusual. “We thought Kamloops had the most untapped market for it,” Phillips said. “If you look at how many breweries have opened up in Kelowna and Pentiction, we thought there was more room in Kamloops.” Securing a location only blocks from Thompson Rivers University didn’t hurt. The pair envisions the brewery offer-
ing a more American style of craft beer, with lagers, pilsners and pale ales that won’t directly compete with the offerings at Red Collar Brewing downtown. Unlike the city’s other craft brewery, Iron Road plans to offer some of their beers in cans rather than bottles. “Cans is really important for us,” Tarswell said. “It’s hard to do cans, but it’s quite a bit more money, but just the accessibility. You can get out on the golf course then and people take beer camping with them.” Before the beers start flowing, there is plenty of work to do, from installing floor drains and purchasing brewery equipment to finding the right brewmaster to create their beverages. “It hasn’t been overwhelming yet because we haven’t realized how much stuff we have to do,” Tarswell quipped during a tour of the new space with KTW. He expects it will be spring or summer of 2017 before Iron Road opens its doors to the public.
Red Collar Brewing is making an impression on beer drinkers beyond the borders of the Tournament Capital. However, brewmaster David Beardsell said mainstream success means it’s time to decide what Kamloops’ two-year-old craft brewery will look like as it grows up. The downtown Kamloops brewery was recently pegged No. 8 on a list of B.C.’s 10 best craft breweries. The list, published in The Growler magazine, also features Four Winds Brewing — named Canada’s best brewery in 2015 — and craft beer standards Driftwood Brewing and Parallel 49 Brewing. “Kamloops’ only craft brewery (unless you count Noble Pig Brewpub) isn’t as well known as it should be,” wrote Stephen Smysnuik. “It’s a shame – the quality, versatility and overall awesomeness of David Beardsell’s beers demand appraisal by the province at large.” Though the list had only been out a week when he spoke to KTW, Beardsell said Red Collar is already seeing an increase in demand, particularly from the Vancouver market. “The problem is that we don’t have any room in our capacity for a bump,” he said. “We’ll have to decide what we’re going to do when we grow up.” Beardsell noted the annual B.C. Beer Awards are taking place this Saturday in Vancouver. If Red Collar places, there will be more pressure to increase the volume of beer produced on a constant basis at the Lansdowne Street venue. Beardsell said that could impact the brewery’s ability to make and bottle a wide variety of beers as it has so far. “I’ve got the attention span of a gnat and I can’t stand doing the same thing over and over again. I really struggle with that, so we’re going to have to figure out how to manage that success,” he said. Beardsell attributes the brewery’s Growler ranking to it’s focus on more unusual beers. He’s also happy to see fellow Belgian beer enthusiasts Townsite Brewing from Powell River make the grade. “He just produces what I consider to be great beers,” Beardsell said.

Know what it is your investment — fund, company or instrument — does. Right now, we like mediumsized real-estate investment trusts, or REIT’s, mortgage investments, value stocks and diversified fixed income pools. Many of the well-known REIT’s (including CAR.UN, REF. UN, REI.UN) are very large and do have a reasonable yield, in the 3.5 to five per cent per annum range, but have primarily been driven up in price by yield compression and flight to a known commodity. This makes them vulnerable to interest-rate increases and market volatility. The smaller REIT’s that we like (HLP.UN, NWH.UN, PRV. UN, TGF.UN) have yields in the six to nine per cent per annum and, more importantly, we really know what it is that they own and how they operate. For the most part, these groups have not been driven up and are trading at a fair price. When it comes to mortgages, there are not as many options as you really need to know what you are doing in this space.
That being said, owning a REIT means you are the equity in the deal and, therefore, are the at-risk capital. With mortgages, you are the lender or debt holder. All of the equity has to disappear for your capital to be at risk. I am pretty sure we all know what value stocks are, but just in case, here is a very short refresher. Find a great company run by good, intelligent and ethical people that is trading at a discount to its expected value and buy it. When it exceeds that value, sell it. Global fixed income, or “unconstrained” bond funds as trendy people sometimes call them, are simply pools of capital roaming around the globe looking for fixed-income ideas that have a logical and riskaverse yield. If you do indeed go to cash because of market worries, please let me know when you are ready to back in as I have never been able to figure that out.
