No unanimity with $10-million plan ANDREA KLASSEN STAFF REPORTER andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com

The City of Kamloops will spend nearly $10 million to construct an emergency water intake on the North Thompson river, but one councillor is certain the pumps on Yates Road will never be used. “If this $10-million facility is ever turned on in my lifetime, I’ll eat my shorts,” Coun. Donovan Cavers said Tuesday as council debated awarding a

tender for the project. By a 6-2 vote, an $8.2-million tender went to Acres Enterprises, the lowest bidder for the project by a significant margin. Three other bids for the project ranged from nearly $11 million (IDL Projects) to $22 million (Kingston Construction). Joining Cavers in his nay vote was Coun. Denis Walsh, who also argued the emergency system, meant to provide water to the city in the event of a rail spill or other disaster in the South Thompson

River, is not required. “I think it’s a case of Chicken Little because I don’t recall us having a problem in the 150 years I’ve been here,” Walsh said. But, Coun. Ken Christian noted there have been rail issues in the city’s history, pointing to a CN spill in the 1990s that closed the North Thompson River from Avola to Kamloops for more than a week.

A father who beat a Chihuahua to death after it bit his daughter in the face during Thanksgiving dinner does not deserve a jail sentence, a provincial court judge has ruled. Christopher Mathes, 41, pleaded guilty in August to causing pain or suffering to an animal, an offence under the Criminal Code of Canada. Mathes, a millwright with two children, testified earlier during a sentencing hearing that he killed the dog, a Chihuahua named Jersey, out of self-defence and fear after it had earlier bit his sixyear-old daughter in the face, causing a cut under her eye. It was the latest in a string of attacks by the dog on other dogs and people. On Tuesday in Kamloops provincial court, Judge Roy Dickey gave Mathes a conditional discharge of 12 months, during which time he is banned from being in the presence of dogs. “This should not be seen as condoning what occurred,” Dickey warned, ruling the beating was an exceptional circumstance that does not require a jail sentence. Dickey said Mathes overreacted after seeing his daughter bit in the face. “I accept this type of offence is exceptional and not within in the normal range,” the judge said, noting Mathes was immediately remorseful after the dog’s death. Crown prosecutor Alex Janse argued unsuccessfully for a six-month conditional sentence, including a three-month house curfew, and a 10-year ban on owning a dog.

Father suing city for playground injury CAM FORTEMS STAFF REPORTER cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

A father visiting Kamloops with his son is suing the city, claiming the infant suffered injuries after he fell from playground equipment at Riverside Park. Brock Lawlor, on behalf of his son Blake, filed a lawsuit in B.C. Supreme Court alleg-

ing a piece of equipment called the Explorer Dome is “a hazard and would be dangerous to visitors of the park.” The playground equipment features a net system suspended by arching metal tubes. The lawsuit claims Blake suffered an arm fracture when he fell of the playground on April 16 this year. That fall and broken arm resulted in anxi-

ety and sleep disturbance, the lawsuit claims. The Quesnel family is seeking damages and future health-care costs. The statement of claim blames the city for failing to warn of the alleged danger of the equipment with a sign and for not installing padding beneath the equipment. It alleges the city breached the Occupiers Liability Act.

Barriere fire chief quits amid police searches Al Kirkwood has stepped down as chief of the Barriere Volunteer Fire Department and is no longer publisher of the Black Press-owned North Thompson Star Journal and Clearwater Times. Barriere Mayor Virginia Smith confirmed to KTW that Kirkwood tendered his resignation from the volunteer fire department as of Oct. 7, citing “stress and personal reasons.” Smith confirmed police officers from outside of Barriere had conducted searches of Kirkwood’s home and of the Star Journal office. Smith acknowledged rumours in the community relating to the reason behind the searches, but said they are just that at this point — rumours — noting no charges have been laid.

When asked if Kirkwood left Black Press voluntarily or was let go, Lorie Williston, president of Black Press B.C. North, would only say, “At this point, I can only say he is no longer an employee of Black Press.” Kirkwood spent 26 years with the Barriere Volunteer Fire Department, 23 of those as chief. Deputy Chief Rob Lennea will serve as interim fire chief until further notice. Kirkwood joined Black Press in 1999 and served almost all of his 17 years as publisher of the two North Thompson Valley newspapers. KTW called Kirkwood to get comment, but encountered voicemail messages. Calls to the RCMP inquiring about the searches of the newspaper office and Kirkwood’s home were not returned.

Math doesn’t lie.

Kamloops RCMP Supt. Brad Mueller speaks at the official opening of the city’s new North Shore Community Policing Office on Seventh Street in May.

Math is absolute. Math can help make sense of things when emotions cloud our vision. I will use math to help you reach your dreams. Banks offer a rate, a payment and a mortgage term, but let me tell you there is so much more... I will add:

Value - I know the market. I know who has which mortgage product. You will not have to ask for a better rate like at a bank, you just get it. Honesty - I have seen many situations and can predict scenarios that can be tricky, lead to trouble or require a second look. Friendship - I hope you will feel cared for and truly helped during the mortage process and beyond. Connection - Leverage my experience and extensive community connections to meet your needs.

I will delete: Time wasting - When it just won’t work with a lender, we target a lender who will say yes Bad structuring - If there are holes in the plan, let’s discuss a strategy to address it. Poor planning - Dates, timelines, future goals, etc., all matter. Let’s discuss dates, times and goals to avoid choices we regret later. Ingorance - Ask me anything. I don’t mind Your choices matter. I will help you know the difference between a good mortgage and a great mortgage for today, tomorrow and the future. I have viewed literally 100s of mortgages from many different lenders, so I can see the value and the concerns. I will treat you with honesty, care and service because you really matter to me.The BONUS!!! My services are free because lenders pay me to nd them great customers.*oac, o&oe

Dogs barking their way north? ANDREA KLASSEN

STAFF REPORTER

andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com

Kamloops RCMP’s four-legged squad could be headed to the North Shore. RCMP Supt. Brad Mueller told Kamloops city council on Tuesday he is hoping to see the city budget between $300,000 and $500,000 in 2017 to allow the police force to move its canine unit into the North Shore Community policing office, which opened this year. Mueller said calls on the North Shore tend to involve people-based issues — assaults, domestic violence and missing persons — in which the dogs may be more useful, noting the new office on Seventh Street also has more room than what is now being used at the Battle Street detachment downtown. “The existing office space that we have for the dogs is really cramped for them and it would provide a better service delivery and a much more workable space, not only for our regular

members, but also for our dogs,” Mueller said. The cash, which will be up for debate as part of next year’s supplemental budget, would also cover the cost of other improvements the Mounties hope to make to the former Kamloops Kia dealership. Those could include better forensics space, a roof replacement on the garage portion of the building, additional storage space, a locker room to allow officers working out of the office to change into uniform without visiting the South Shore and a mechanic bay. Corporate services and community safety officer David Duckworth said the city is still fine-tuning the cost of the upgrades, which could be funded using the police reserve fund. Mueller said he hopes to see the improvements begin in 2017 and possibly continue for several years. At a public meeting in April, the local Mounties relayed a number of statistics:

• The peak time for calls to police are not Friday and Saturday nights, as one might suspect, but aligned with the work day — Mondays to Fridays, 9 a.m. to 5 p..m. • The most requested calls from the North Shore and South Shore differed in 2015, with the North Shore’s No. 1 call being theft-related followed by disturbances, abandoned 911 calls, traffic and general assistance. The South Shore’s No. 1 call was also theft-related, followed by traffic, abandoned 911 calls, disturbances and false alarms. • In 2015, 55 per cent of all calls to police came from the South Shore, while 44 per cent came from north of the river. • The Kamloops RCMP budget is cost-shared between the City of Kamloops (90 per cent) and the federal government (10 per cent). In 2015, the city funded $20.8 million, while Ottawa chipped in $3.5 million. The cost of policing per average Kamloops taxpayer is $421 a year, or $1.15 per day.

Ottawa will cover $6M of cost From A1

“I think that it is wise for the city to build some redundancy into our infrastructure to prepare for that risk,” he said. Assistant engineering manager Jake Devlin said in the event of a spill into the South Thompson, city staff would manually shut down the water intakes between the Kamloops water-treatment plant and the river, which could cut the city off from a potable water supply for an indefinite amount of time. The North Thompson system is intended to

provide water during that period, though it would not be treated to the same standard. While Acres had the low bid, it will still push the cost of construction over budget by about five per cent, or $444,000. The majority of the cash for the project will come from a $6-million federal government grant, with the city’s water-reserve fund and about $300,000 in development cost charges providing the remainder of the money needed. Work on the water intake will begin next month and continue until December 2017.

Aging out cited as big factor in youth homelessness DALE BASS

STAFF REPORTER

dale@kamloopsthisweek.com

Information is still being collected and analysis still needs to be done, but Katherine McParland already knows one of the factors contributing to youth homelessness in Kamloops — aging out. When a teen turns 19, he or she is no longer part of the government system that provides care for children. As a result, resources aren’t so readily available, she said. McParland is youth homelessness manager with Interior Community Services and the person who created A Way Home, which tackles the problem of homeless youth. Part of that work involves the first homeless youth count in a Canadian community, which began last week in Kamloops. McParland said it is striking how many homeless youth she has talked to who say moving from the child and youth to the adult care systems provided by the government led to many challenges that contribute to their lack of housing. One young man McParland spoke to described aging out as recreating “the same trauma they felt of apprehension.” Two years ago, Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond, B.C.’s representative for children and youth, wrote a report on aging out that began by stating, “Few parents in British

KATHERINE MCPARLAND: Youth homelessness manager with Interior Community Services.

Columbia would mark their son or daughter’s 19th birthday by walking them to the front door of the family home, shaking their hand, wishing them good luck and then ushering them outside. But that’s essentially what happens to many youth in the care of B.C.’s Ministry of Children and Family Development when they turn 19, become adults and age out of the provincial care system.” Last year, the government announced a new website, AgedOut.com, to help teens in foster care prepare for their 19th birthdays, when they no longer have access to foster parents, social workers or financial assistance.

Last May, Ontario charity The Children’s Aid Foundation, gave B.C. $2 million to help those aging out of the system, money it hoped would boost high-school graduation rates and reduce homelessness. McParland said the goal is to host an event in December that will also address the results of the one-week youth homeless count in Kamloops, which ends today. She’s hoping there will be a report or at least a one-page summary, something that could be used to guide responses to the issue in the city in coming months. Several agencies have helped with the count and, for the first time, the city’s bylaw officers have been involved in trying to document the number of homeless in the city. Other agencies have done annual homeless counts in the past. McParland said having bylaw officers involved has been good as the city employees connected with, as of earlier this week, 18 youth. She hopes it will help build relationships and understanding. Those contacted have also received backpacks containing various essentials and all the youth have been and will be invited to a gathering today at the Boys and Girls Club of Kamloops facility in the John Tod Community Centre on the North Shore

Court heard earlier the dog — obtained from a rescue organization and brought to Kamloops from California a month earlier — was inside the family home on Oct. 11, 2015, during a Thanksgiving meal. Mathes and his wife had invited friends over. The dog earlier bit their friends’ dog in the face a number of times. It had bitten five people in the

two weeks preceding the dinner gathering. After the dog bit the couple’s daughter, it was moved outside. That’s when he was going to put it in the garage, Mathes told the judge, noting it became aggressive when he attempted to move it. Mathes struck the 10-pound dog with a fence post, causing a serious injury. He then beat it repeatedly to put it out of its misery.

n the last day of school for elementary students at Beattie School of the Arts in June, many of the students lined the hallway to the exit, hands extended up and out, creating an archway through which others left the building. They had just finished singing Somagwaza, an African song of goodbye. Yesterday, students recreated that archway and sing Somagwaza again — it is also a song of welcome — as Kamloops School of the Arts hosted its opening celebration. It’s been a long time coming. When work began to create the school of choice more than a decade ago, it was always envisioned as a kindergarten to Grade 12 facility, but other realities in the Kamloops-Thomson school district led to the elementary and secondary campuses remaining separate. Most recently, elementary students were at School District 73’s facility on McGill Road and the secondary students have been at the former John Peterson secondary building, adjacent to South Kamloops secondary, for several years. (The McGill Road school is now Beattie elementary, home to students and staff from the now-closed Stuart Wood elementary.) The transition hasn’t been completely

seamless, said Kamloops School of the Arts principal Syd Griffith, “but nothing that was unexpected.” One of the earliest challenges came on the street. As a school of choice, those of the 670 students who can’t walk to the Ninth Avenue site have to get there on their own. It led to some traffic congestion in the early days, something that was alleviated with teachers and other staff heading out to help move drivers along — entertaining them with some line dancing on occasion. Mornings can still be a bit of a challenge, but drivers have become used to the reality, Griffith said. Afternoons aren’t as hectic because elementary students are dismissed at 2:25 p.m. and secondary students get out at 3 p.m. Part of the field to the west of the school had to be converted into a staff parking lot. Another section has been fenced off to house play equipment for the younger students. Elementary grades are on the main floor, although the senior dance studio and the school’s theatre-arts class are also there. Classes for students in grades 4 to 12 are upstairs. The school also has a computer room, a media-arts room, one that teaches allthings-food, a new library, a junior dance

studio, arts studios and a band studio. It also has pianos in hallways for making music outside of instructional times and a renovated gymnasium that includes a new floor and removal of the South Kamloops Titans branding. A student designed a new logo, one that encompasses the artistic bent of the school. That pedagogical style works well with the new provincial curriculum, Griffith said. When she read the basics on the new system, one that promotes not just the core subjects, but learning through hands-on experience, collaboration and critical thinking, she said she thought, “Oh, did they write that for us?” It’s what they do at Kamloops School of the Arts, be it working through a script, learning to play a new piece of music or focusing on a project to design a nutritious product with a long shelf life that could be used to help feed the homeless. Ellen McMillan, a longtime teacher at the school, said every day spent there continues to revitalize her. It’s the blend of energies, she said, “looking around and seeing the little age group and the connection between young and old. “It’s really busy,” McMillan said. And, with all the grades together, she added: “It’s really starting to feel like home.”

STOP FALLING FOR THESE SCAMS Another phone scam has surfaced in B.C., this time targeting the South Asian community, and once again using intimidation to pry out personal and financial information — undoubtedly to be used in some sort of fraud. The caller — claiming to be a police officer — says the family has failed to file immigration documentation and fishes for family names and other personal data. This resembles the bogus Canada Revenue Agency calls that recently swept across the country, in which the scammers posed as federal tax authorities, claiming the recipient of the call had not filed proper income tax information and could face huge fines or prison if money was not sent immediately. The families getting the immigration con did the right thing by refusing to answer questions and contacting police. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case. More than a few folks targeted in the tax scam were frightened enough to comply with the money demands and were taken for thousands of dollars. That’s why these phone scams — and there are dozens of them — are constantly circulating. The con artists always have a degree of success. If they make enough calls, they’ll find someone who will bend to extortion, fears for a “relative in trouble” or falls for a promise of lucrative “winnings.” (See page A11). All too often the victims are elderly. They are not scam-savvy, either because they haven’t heard of the latest fraud or they’re frail and vulnerable to threats. For those who have elderly parents, or work closely with seniors, ensure you’ve had a discussion, repeated if needed, about protecting against phone scams. If you’ve not had such a call personally, be prepared. Don’t believe what you hear over the phone. No government agency or bank demands personal and financial information or money, by phone. Be suspicious, don’t comply, hang up and call the real police.

Making America bleed again

remember the riot in Detroit in 1967. Just a young child, I recall fearing for my elderly great-aunts who lived in that city, spinsters both. The only time either was touched by the reality of police in their hometown was when GreatAunt Anna would decide to get her sister, with whom she lived, and head to the store or some other place that required driving her car. She was invariably ticketed for driving too slowly — dangerously slowly. But early on Sunday, July 23, of that year, just after Detroit police officers raided an unlicensed after-hours bar near what is now known as Rosa Parks Boulevard — back then, it was 12th Street — the city erupted into one of the most destructive riots in the history of the country that loves to call itself the greatest on Earth. Before then, the record-setting incidence of civil disobedience occurred in 1863, when workingclass citizens of New York City rebelled against the draft forcing men to fight in the U.S. Civil War. Just 24 years before Detroiters took to the street, leading to 43 dead, 1,189 injured, more than 7,200 arrests and more than 2,000 buildings destroyed, residents of the Motor City also protested violently, much of it fuelled by racistbased rumours, lack of housing and job discrimination. For those who view these incidents as the historical chapters they are, the most recent example in the U.S. of public protest on a truly deadly and destructive scale

DALE BASS

Street

LEVEL came on April 29, 1992, in Los Angeles, when four police officers videotaped beating motorist Rodney King were found not guilty. The battle continued for six days, 55 people were killed, more than 2,000 were injured, losses were estimated at between $800 million and $1 billion, about 3,600 fires were set and 1,100 buildings were destroyed. The one key element linking each of these tragedies is race and racial relations in the U.S. Get ready for it to happen again, probably some time late on Tuesday, Nov. 8, when Donald Trump stands in front of the nation’s media and solemnly pronounces his loss was due to the election being rigged by the dishonest Democrats and the corrupt media. It may be the only time during this campaign when the man strings together words that actually do make a sentence and have a point. Who knows the kind of destruction that will be unleashed because it won’t be limited to

a neighbourhood or a city. It will spread across the country, ignited by the kind of people who see nothing wrong with wearing a T-shirt saying “Muslims go home,” Donald can grope me any time,” “Trump versus Tramp” or, perhaps revealing how truly depraved some of the narcissist’s followers are, “I Wish Hillary Had Married O.J.” It will be bloody; after all, many of these people have no comprehension of the real intent of the Second Amendment they point to as validation they can take their guns to their kids’ soccer games or into the local grocery store. They’re the cherry-pickers of the Bible who again apply their own warped viewpoints to interpretation of stories written centuries ago and recorded in a book in which its underlying philosophy can be found in 1 Corinthians 13, verses four and five: “Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful.” It is not Donald Trump — but none of that matters. All that is left is an angry man who blames everyone else for anything that happens to him that does not result in his being idolized — and elected. All that will matter is the cesspool of hatred and bigotry he has created, looking for a way to explode — and, once again, America will bleed. dale@kamloopsthisweek.com Twitter: @mdalebass

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

AJAX WOULD COMPROMISE OUR PARADISE Editor: It would be truly tragic for this community if all the money and money pressures from those with vested interests were to ultimately allow for the proposed Ajax mine to become a part of our day-to-day lives. When I came to Kamloops in 1968, the pulp mill was among my first impressions of the town. It reeked. With any little breeze, its odour permeated the senses. But it was, after all, the “smell of money” and did provide for many jobs. Only after many years was the chimney placed on the hill above the mill, which alleviated much of the odour in all but for the most unfortunate of wind conditions. Our designation as the Tournament Capital of Canada followed, along with world-class athletic facilities. Then there was the water-treatment plant, in 2005. Prior to its construction, the water was especially unseemly for tourists in hotels and motels when grey/brown water during spring run-off flowed from the taps and showers, leaving a negative memorable impression on those passing through our town.

Thankfully, the water-treatment plant now gives Kamloops water quality that surpasses that of even bottled water, as it is regulated by the government for its safety. In our near future, we see several very positive community improvement and employment prospects: the proposed $500-million RIH tower, the $30-million university expansion, the four-laning of the highway to Salmon Arm, iTel Networks moving to Mission Flats, providing for 275 jobs. All of this is in addition to our nature trails, wineries, world-class fly fishing, skateboard and mountain bike parks and beautiful city parks. And along comes Ajax, a mine that will be a kilometre from Kamloops as the crow flies. Regardless of whatever the company might come up with in its studies, anybody who has lived here for years knows what happens when you’re digging up clay and our winds arrive. Particulates from this likely regular scenario will almost certainly impact our long-term health, especially those of seniors. Expect cars and pools to be graced with minute regular dustings of “the taste of money.”

This says nothing of water-retrieval and water-pollution issues, which can be glossed over by the right people willing to sell their souls to cherry pick the right data. Nor the cataclysmic potential of a high-level wet tailings pond breach when cost-cutting measures and human failings threaten all that lies below, as was aptly expressed by Coun. Denis Walsh in his letter to our premier. I would like to see the gambling in the city left at the casino. Kamloops is too precious and we have worked for too many decades making this community the paradise that it has become. Jobs gained at the mine would be jobs lost in tourism. Sorely needed health professionals would seek to practice in healthier environments, knowing well their pleas fell on deaf ears. It’s simply a foolish, short-sighted gamble on our future. I give kudos to Walsh and Coun. Donovan Cavers for having the guts to stand out from their council peers and speak for those who have no vested financial interest in this mine. Pat Leibel Kamloops

MAKE VELODROME CENTREPIECE OF KDN SITE Editor: Here’s a proposal for the former Kamloops Daily News site: Build a multi-sport arena with a 250-metre Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI)-approved velodrome as the prime sport venue. Other sports can be accommodated as well, including indoor soccer, team handball, indoor tennis, indoor track and field events, pickleball, boxing, fitness gym, badminton and cross-

training for triathletes and speed skaters. There can be the oft-mentioned 300-stall underground parkade and spaces for retail outlets on the ground level. Why a sports stadium at this site? This would revitalize the downtown core, it would attract many local citizens to pursue their fitness regimen and it would increase the use of public transit since all buses stop at Seymour

Street and Fourth Avenue. The downtown is well served by excellent hotels and restaurants. The UCI would ensure worldclass cycling competitions. These events alone would, over time, bring sizeable revenues to the city, as would all the other sports. The concept of the velodrome alone would fit perfectly with the Tournament Capital of Canada concept. Both Cycling B.C. and Cycling

Canada support the velodrome and other sports groups in Kamloops have been approached for their support. This multi-sport arena would be utilized year-round and a number of cost estimates are already on hand. If the city wants a money-making sports facility, this proposal should be looked at closely.

Getting them off highway TOURISM KAMLOOPS HAS A NEW STRATEGIC PLAN DALE BASS

STAFF REPORTER

dale@kamloopsthisweek.com

Beverley DeSantis has vacationed in the Shuswap for years and readily admits that, when she would have to come to Kamloops, “I rarely got off the highway.” There would be the quick jaunt onto a frontage road to hit a grocery store or other outlet, she said, and then it was back to the lake and all it held for her. It wasn’t until DeSantis started her job as CEO of Tourism Kamloops earlier this year that she started to see the many reasons she now points to as why Kamloops is a destination location. People just don’t know that yet, she said, citing studies done as Tourism Kamloops prepared a new strategic plan. In surveying attitudes toward Kamloops, Tourism Kamloops spoke not only to local residents, but to those from other provinces. “Most said it’s just a stop on the highway,” DeSantis said. “We need to change that story.”

The new strategic plan was unveiled this week and shows most people think of the city as “a stop on the highway.” DeSantis and her team hope to change that, starting with the new plan, one built around five platforms: innovation, sustainability, community and stakeholder, experience and brand. Each addresses specific targets Tourism Kamloops will be moving forward with in coming years. Innovation, for example, includes using technology to collect and analyze meaningful data that can drive change. It also means generating and sharing industry data and developing training that can support the Tourism Kamloops team and city stakeholders. For brand, it includes measuring, evaluation and responding to brand loyalty and awareness and targeting strategies that promote the city’s brand to specific markets. The plan will go into effect next Canada Day. It should be posted on the

BUDDHIST CHURCH ANNUAL SPRING BAZAAR SAT. OCT 22ND

Tourism Kamloops website (tourismkamloops.com) next week. Among the elements of the city that need to be promoted are the simple beauty of the landscape, the arts and culture community, the Tournament Capital of Canada brand, downtown and Riverside Park. DeSantis discovered these ingredients — on which she will be shining a larger spotlight — when she started with Tourism Kamloops on April 4. She said she arrived at 8:30 a.m. and, 30 minutes later while looking for a house, became amazed at all she was learning about the city through which runs the highway she rarely previously left. “It’s amazing here,” DeSantis said. Prior to succeeding Lee Morris as Tourism Kamloops CEO, DeSantis was Business Link Alberta’s director of Calgary and Southern Alberta. Business Link is a non-profit organization that helps Alberta entrepreneurs start their own businesses.

Richard Game calls it the “inoculation theory” of education — graduate from high school, get a diploma or degree, get a job and you’re done. As a first-year student at what was then Cariboo College in Kamloops, Game didn’t look much beyond transferring to the University of B.C., getting his engineering degree and working as an engineer. But his subsequent education and career experience proved there’s no inoculation from need to improve and succeed in today’s hyper-competitive world, where the frequent flier has visited 40 countries as an executive and partner of technology firms. After graduation, Game spent two years working in the field as a geotechnical engineer, often wondering why his bosses were doing things the way they were doing. “I was always questioning and could never figure out why they were making these deci-

sions,” said Game, who will speak tomorrow at 8:30 a.m. at Thompson Rivers University’s Ike Barber Centre as part of TRU’s Business Kickstart series. Those questions and quest for more learning led him to an MBA, a PhD, certification in international trade and even a designation as a sommelier. Now the chief operating officer of Evans Consoles Corp. — which supplies workstations for clients including NASA and Boeing — Game’s working career includes everything from developing online retailing to purchasing and growing a technological materials company in

Quebec that built the Canadarm for Spar Aerospace. In his presentation at TRU, Game will show the progress of Evans Consoles, a company started by an accountant and woodworking hobbyist that grew to have revenues of $20- to $80-million a year with showrooms in Washington, D.C., Houston, and Kunshan, China. Game’s own ride includes the highest highs when he was recruited to run a start-up division at Nortel, a Canadian tech company that employed 95,000 people at its peak in 2000. Those highs, Game said, included being in an auditorium with staff when CEO John Roth “was giving away Corvettes” to the lows of being in another auditorium after the dot-com crash and telling several-hundred Nortel employees crowded inside, as well as others via teleconferencing, they no longer had jobs. Roth joined Evans Consoles in 2004, helping a corporate turnaround that confirmed it as a technology success story for Calgary and Canada.

Admission is free. Devon Mah of Open Door said the event is the largest local hiring event of its kind in the region. Mah recommends those attending to come dressed appropriately for job interviews and to bring copies of their resumes.

as a food cache among a dozen cabins at Hudson Bay Mountain near Smithers. Conservation officers were called to the area on Oct. 4, where, after considerable effort, they were able to scare the bear away and relocate the moose carcass away from the cabins. The moose had been buried at the start of a

popular hiking trail and a hiker reported a bear eating berries in the area on Oct. 3. The bear was not injured or tranquilized, Doyle said. • Conservation Officers have trapped and relocated seven grizzly bears near Bella Coola on the B.C. central coast in the past week. Bears gather to feed on salmon in the Bella

Coola River. When the salmon are depleted, bruins have turned to abandoned fruit trees and garbage. “This time of year, bears are trying to pack on as many calories as possible prior to denning, and fruit trees and garbage continue to be strong attractants driving conflicts,” Doyle said. • At least 20 black

bears have been destroyed by conservation officers in the Revelstoke area this year, one of several communities where human-bear conflicts have been high in 2016. • Three bears were killed by conservation officers in Rayleigh on Sept. 22, after becoming accustomed to human food in the neighbourhood.

Notable incidents include: • A hunter was mauled by a grizzly bear in the afternoon of Oct. 1 near Morin Lake, northeast of Smithers. “The hunter stepped over a log and came face to face with a large grizzly,” Doyle said. “The bear attacked him and then turned to leave. The hunter fired two shots, hitting the bear, and then he was able to walk out to his ATV, where he was able to find assistance from two other hunters in the area and was transported to hospital, where he was treated for injuries.” A dead grizzly bear weighing about 360 kilograms (800 pounds) was later found and is believed to be the bear that attacked. • A grizzly bear killed a moose and buried it

Man aiming to have minimum sentence declared unconstitutional CAM FORTEMS

STAFF REPORTER

cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

A B.C. Supreme Court justice must find a three-year sentence a Merritt man is facing for selling a gun he found “grossly disproportionate” to the crime in order for it be struck down under the Charter, a Crown lawyer argued Tuesday. Rodney Boesel pleaded guilty to trafficking a weapon in connection to the incident that occurred on May 1, 2014, when he found a gun and immediately sold it for $80. The minimum sentence under the Criminal Code of

Canada is three years in jail. Boesel was doing renovations at the Merritt apartment building in which he lived when he came across a hidden Browning shotgun wrapped in plastic in a weedy lumber pile beside a shed. He immediately called his drug dealer, who he had only recently met, and offered to sell the gun. RCMP had arrested the drug dealer the day before and an officer answered his cellphone. Boesel arranged to sell the gun for $80 and about $20 worth of crack cocaine. An undercover Mountie made the deal the same morning and

police arrested Boesel. Defence lawyer Genevieve Eliany is asking B.C. Supreme Court Justice Hope Hyslop to declare the minimum sentence contrary to the Charter of Rights and Freedoms and not law in B.C. Crown prosecutor Lesley Ruzicka told Hyslop she must find the three-year prison term “grossly inappropriate” — rather than simply not fit or excessive — in order for it to be ruled cruel and unusual punishment and, therefore, a breach of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Under laws brought in by the previous Conservative govern-

ment in 2008, convictions in weaponstrafficking offences carry a minimum three-year jail sentence. That law has been found to be unconstitutional in other provinces, including Ontario, but remains valid in B.C. The hearing is expected to continue Wednesday in Kamloops Law Courts. Boesel is a drug addict on a methadone program who has a criminal record for a string of break-andenter thefts in 2008. He has no record for violence. After the sale, Boesel told police: “It must seem stupid, but I really didn’t think about it.’”

The Crown wanted a career criminal who threatened to kill judges, police and a prosecutor jailed for three years. In the end, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Elliott Myers handed down a two-year sentence. Shane Jeurissen pleaded guilty in B.C. Supreme Court yesterday to one count each of uttering threats to a justice system participant and uttering threats. Court heard Jeurissen was the subject of a dangerous offender

hearing in 2014, when he sent threatening letters to a Crown lawyer and an RCMP staff sergeant. Crown prosecutor John Swanson said Jeurissen sent more than two-dozen letters to Joel Gold, the prosecutor conducting the dangerous-offender hearing. “Most of them were just rants,” Swanson said. “Then, on Aug. 20, the accused sent a letter to Mr. Gold in which he stated, ‘Watch out, I’m coming for you one day, Gold, and I will kill you.’ “It set off alarm bells in the Kamloops Crown office and resulted in Mr. Gold being removed from the file,” Swanson said.

At about the same time, court heard, Jeurissen sent another threatening letter to RCMP Staff Sgt. Cindy Ramos, who had been testifying about Jeurissen’s potential future risk to public safety during his dangerous-offender hearing. “He threatened to kill her and kill all white police officers — a broad threat to all police officers, judges and Crown,” Swanson said, arguing the justice system needs to let criminals know such threats will not be tolerated.“This type of an offence requires a severe federal sentence,” he said, pitching a three-year sentence.

Kamloops firefighters were called to the Bamboo Inn restaurant in the Brock Shopping Centre yesterday at about 3 p.m. for a report of a fire. Smoke could be seen billowing out a window and the cause was determined to be a pot smouldering on a stove. Firefighters removed the pot, aired out the kitchen and left the building. No damage or injuries were reported.

Killing a friend while driving drunk at twice the posted speed limit has cost a Kamloops woman a year-and-a-half behind bars. Yvonne Wilson pleaded guilty in B.C. Supreme Court on Monday to impaired driving causing death. Her blood alcohol level was nearly four times the legal limit at the time of the crash. Barry Charlie was killed after being ejected from a van Wilson was driving near Paul Lake on June 25, 2014. Court heard Wilson, 48, and a group of friends spent that day drinking and driving around Kamloops. At some point, they took a trip to Paul Lake. “Everyone in the vehicle, including Ms. Wilson, had been con-

suming alcohol during that day,” Crown prosecutor Chris Balison said. “After being up in the Paul Lake area for some time, they decided to head back to Kamloops to purchase more alcohol.” Balison said Wilson lost control on a set of switchbacks, sending the minivan rolling and ejecting Charlie. The posted speed limit on that portion of highway is 50 km/h. Balison said an RCMP collision reconstructionist determined Wilson’s van was travelling between 104 km/h and 107 km/h. “She was warned by passengers of the van that she was going too fast,” Balison said, noting Charlie was thrown from the vehicle as it rolled. “He received a significant head wound. He died as a result of being ejected.” Wilson cried in court as Balison read

circumstances of the crash. Court heard Wilson’s blood-alcohol level was 0.311. “Her remorse for the death of her friend has been continuous since the day of the death of her friend,” said defence lawyer Sheldon Tate. “As you can see, it continues.” Tate said Wilson’s mother was murdered when Wilson was five. A few years later, her father died in a house fire. Wilson became dependant on alcohol as a teenager. Court heard Wilson later met and married a man from El Salvador. Tate said he was jailed in his homeland in the late2000s amid political unrest and died behind bars earlier this year. “It’s a wonder that this lady has been able to make it as far as she has,” Tate said. “She has an inner strength

that is palpable, that people are aware of. She is as remorseful as a person can be and she is highly motivated to deal with her issues.” Wilson apologized in court. “This is a really tragic thing that happened,” she said. “I want to say sorry. I didn’t mean to hurt anybody. I’m sorry for that.” B.C. Supreme Court Justice Hope Hyslop handed Wilson a jail sentence of 18 months. “I think in some ways that Ms. Wilson has, to this point in her life, lived in a state of jail,” Hyslop said. “Not every individual has as many things happen to them. It’s very clear that Ms. Wilson is remorseful. She has been remorseful since the day it happened, and that remorse has continued.”

Enbridge cuts five per cent of staff

Calgary-based Enbridge Inc. has cut hundreds of jobs across its operations following a company-wide organizational review.

The company said the cuts stemmed from an orga-

Tracking data spread A year ago, B.C. government staffers were unsuccessfully searching boxes in a Victoria-area warehouse, trying to find a missing backup hard drive containing 3.4-million Ministry of Education student files. Now the province is grappling with the next generation of data security, trying to keep track of 12,000 mobile phones and tablet computers that also may contain sensitive information. After data-privacy breaches involving medical and other records, and a controversy over triple deleting staff emails that may be subject to freedom of information searches, the province’s chief information officer launched a mobile device security program in June. By the end of 2016 it will cover all 12,000 mobile devices used by the B.C. government, Betty Jo Hughes said in response to a report on data management released Tuesday by B.C. Auditor General Carol Bellringer. “Existing controls include password protection, device encryption, ability to remotely wipe a device that is lost or stolen, and the ability to automatically lock a device that is inactive for a period of time,” Hughes wrote in response to the auditor’s report. Bellringer found gaps in the government policy, including a lack of central monitoring and logging of mobile device activity. “And, even though government provides security guidance to its employees when they’re issued a mobile device, it’s left to employees to actually apply some of the settings,” Bellringer said. “As a result, appropriate security settings are not always in place.” — Black Press

AFTER ONE YEAR, FEDERAL LIBERAL SUPPORT STILL HIGH THE CANADIAN PRESS

OTTAWA — One year ago yesterday, Canadians headed to the polls in a federal election that elevated the third-place Liberals and Justin Trudeau into power with a comfortable 15-seat majority in the House of Commons. Twelve months later, the political honeymoon for the Liberals appears little diminished, with a variety of opinion polls placing support for the party consistently in the mid40s to low 50s — and the prime minister’s personal approval ratings even higher. Trudeau celebrated his first year in office yesterday with a string of media interviews in which he talked up the work his government has done in the last 12 months. “I’m going to let critics and journalists and Canadians make evaluations of how I’m doing,’’ he said in an interview with Breakfast Television Toronto. “I’m focused on what needs to be done and that’s a question of growing the economy in ways that helps the middle class.’’ Trudeau said his government has done “a lot of big things’’ that are making a real difference in people’s lives, but added “there’s a lot more to do.’’ The Liberals’ first year in office has seen a variety of measures, including an influx of Syrian refugees, environmental pledges, upper income tax hikes, health-care promises and

indigenous commitments. But now that the Liberals have put a hold on health-care transfer increases, maintained the old Conservative carbon cutting targets, fought First Nations in court and approved a major liquefied natural-gas plant in B.C., there is some grumbling across the land. Some of the loudest grumbling, of course, came from their political rivals, who made it clear they were in no mood to celebrate the occasion. “Their record is one of economic mismanagement, higher taxes and shocking entitlement,’’ interim Conservative leader Rona Ambrose said. “Most troubling of all, we have a prime minister who has already lost touch with everyday working people and their families . . . There’s no plan for jobs other than to borrow and spend billions of taxpayer dollars.’’ New Democrat Leader Tom Mulcair said many Canadians have been underwhelmed by the Liberals so far. “A lot of the things that they promised to do, they’re not doing,’’ Mulcair said. He cited the fact the Liberals adopted the greenhouse-gas emissions reduction targets of their Conservative predecessors as just one of many disappointments. In an interview yesterday with CBC’s The Current, Trudeau defended his government’s two-pronged approach

to seemingly contradictory issues: approving and pushing for pipeline developments while at the same time establishing measures for carbon reduction. “One of the things we’ve seen in politics over the past number of years has been the creation of a binary choice: you can either build a strong economy or you can protect the environment,’’ Trudeau said. “Well, fortunately, Canadians don’t think that way, businesses don’t think that way and I don’t think that way. “We know we need to protect the environment while we build a strong economy, and, indeed, showing environmental leadership is a way to create new jobs and new opportunities for Canadians.’’ A year on, it appears the Liberals’ change in tone and style from the former Conservative government has yet to lose its novelty. Canadians, Trudeau said, “know that 10 years of cuts from Stephen Harper wasn’t growing the economy. We need to do it the right way and that’s exactly what we’re doing.’’ The Liberals still have plenty of hard tasks ahead. They include creating a new infrastructure investment bank, establishing a recreational marijuana market, plotting a path to emissions targets, hashing out home care and pharmacare promises and revamping the electoral system.

OTTAWA — British Columbia MP Peter Julian is stepping down as NDP House leader to explore the idea of running for the leadership of his party. “That will mean lots of conversations — hundreds of conversations — in the coming period,’’ Julian said yesterday. “I’m inspired by New Democrats, I’m inspired by Canadians and I’m looking forward to those conversations,’’ said Julian, who represents the riding of New WestminsterBurnaby. Murray Rankin, another B.C. New Democrat, will take over as House leader. Julian, 54, was first elected to the House of Commons in 2004 and has been re-elected four times.

system as of July 1. But as the department works to fix thousands of problem files, the cases are becoming more complicated, Lemay said. As well, old files are being uncovered that require further investigation, she added. “Increasingly, we’re seeing many of the cases left in the backlog are very complicated and require time-consuming manual calculations,’’ she told a news conference yesterday.

“In addition, we are processing some transactions that date back several years.’’ The government has budgeted an extra $50 million to handle issues related to Phoenix, including millions of dollars being paid to tech giant IBM to help fix the system. IBM created the pay system, basing it on the PeopleSoft program that is used worldwide, and tailored it to the needs of the federal civil service.

The government was forced to hire or re-hire hundreds of payroll and call-centre workers after more than 82,000 civil servants reported problems with their paycheques. Hundreds of complainants had not been paid at all, in many cases for months. Lemay said those extra employees will remain on the job until the pay system is restored to what she terms a “steady state.’’ Earlier this month, the department began processing claims from employees who incurred out-of-pocket expenses as a result of the pay mixup, such as interest on credit cards and lines of credit. — The Canadian Press

OTTAWA — The federal government said it will likely miss a self-imposed Oct. 31 deadline for eliminating a backlog of problems with its new employee pay system. Marie Lemay, deputy minister of Public Services and Procurement Canada, the department overseeing efforts to fix the Phoenix payroll system, said officials are still aiming for the deadline. She said pay-system employees have closed 12,824 more files since her last update earlier this month. That has resulted in a reduction in the overall backlog by over 51,000 cases, or more than 60 per cent of the original number in the

next year after delegates at the party’s April convention in Edmonton voted against his leadership. That followed a poor showing in the 2015 election, despite Mulcair having begun the campaign with the most credible shot the NDP has ever had at forming the federal government. Julian said that one year after the Liberals came to power, Canadians are disappointed. “There was a commitment to real change and we haven’t seen that real change,’’ he said. Julian also said the NDP needs to continue to be a “national party,’’ restoring its strength in Quebec, but also rebuilding in regions such as Atlantic Canada. Mulcair told reporters he expects an exciting leadership race that will generate a lot of great ideas, but will remain neutral as far as candidates go. The party is to select Mulcair’s replacement in October 2017.

ROLL IT UP, FOR REAL

hef Michael Smith says people have forgotten that many foods purchased for their convenience used to be made at home. In his new cookbook, Real Food, Real Good, he offers recipes for such items as mustard, ketchup, broth, granola, salad dressings, barbecue sauce, gravy, marshmallows and chicken wings that can be made at home to control what goes into your food. Smith also includes a recipe for roll-ups made with real fruit that can be tucked into a child’s lunchbox rather than purchasing the sugar-laden, factorymade equivalent. Apples are loaded with pectin, a magical ingredient that helps set jams and jellies and gives great strength and flexibility to homemade fruit roll-ups. In this recipe the apples get a strong nutritional boost from chia seeds, which also help the roll-ups hold together. — Canadian Press

REAL FRUIT ROLL-UPS 2 lbs. apples, cored and cut into large chunks 1 bag (21 oz.) frozen raspberries 1 inch of ginger, thinly sliced or grated 1/2 cup of water 2 tbsp. chia seeds Position racks in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat oven to 100 C, turning on the convection fan if available. Line two baking sheets with lightly oiled parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Into a medium saucepan, toss apples, raspberries and ginger, add water and bring to a slow, steady simmer over medium-high heat. Cover and continue simmering until apples are very soft, 20 minutes or so. Remove from heat, stir in chia seeds, cover and rest about 10 minutes, until seeds absorb liquid and swell. Process mixture through large holes of a food mill or remove ginger slices and puree the works in your food processor or blender. Divide evenly between prepared baking sheets, spreading evenly and thinly. Bake two hours, then check every 30 minutes. The mixture will thin noticeably and the surface will dry and become slightly sticky. The moisture content in apples varies, so this may take up to four hours. Remove from oven and cool completely. Trim excess paper around edges of fruit leather. Roll each sheet of fruit and paper into a tight log, then with a pair of kitchen scissors cut into pieces 2.5 or 5 cm (1 or 2 inches) wide. Store in a resealable plastic bag. Makes 20 snacks.

Dos, don’ts of vineyard visits

all is a great time to visit a winery. It’s the busy season — now is when the grapes are being processed for their long rest — but it’s also the quiet season. Summer crowds have faded. A visit to a vineyard one of these weekends would be a wonderful date, girls’ afternoon or trip for out-of-town guests. There are a few things you can do to ensure you get the most out of your visit. I have had some disappointing winery visits. Adding insult to injury, I’ve had to pay to experience them. Yippee! To help avoid that, I wanted to give you a few of my hard learned lessons. 1. Do your research. Double check the winery will be open by calling or visiting their website. I have yet to find a winery with a tasting room that doesn’t have a social media presence. Most wineries are a

Sips in

THE CITY bit off the beaten path (they are a farm, after all) so it’s worth checking if they are open to the public before you drive all that way. 2. Plan your route. You should be able to find a few wineries to visit in one day. Watch for other farms in the area with gate sales. Dairy farms and produce stands nearby will be a fun side trip. Three vineyards would fill an afternoon nicely. Eight would count as an Olympic sport. 3. Bring cash. You can expect to pay between $5 and $10 for a tasting. The fee is often waived with a purchase per person.

Freeze Your Fat Away With CoolSculpting®

Sometimes, a premium or limited release wine will be available for tasting with an additional fee. Many places also have extra stuff for sale, wine jellies, gift bags, crackers or other locally produced fair. 4. Expect good service. Actually, expect great service. You have driven all the way to them just to buy their product, so they should be happy to see you and make you feel welcome. When it is quiet, like in the shoulder season, you should get really personalized service. Ask questions and take your time. It doesn’t matter if you are new to wine or you are so experienced you can actually pronounce Gewurztraminer, you should feel like you learned a little something about the establishment when you drive away. 5. Feel no pressure to buy wine. Don’t like it? Just pay your $5 and politely thank the gentleman. Wine is subjective and everyone in the industry gets that. They won’t hold it against you.

Now, having said that, here are your obligations. 1. Respect their time. Don’t pop in after hours and poke around for someone. This is private property. 2. Don’t bust out of your car with four kids and your dog and send them all to play in the field while you spend an hour at the counter. This is a working farm and often a family home so you need to respect it as such. 3. Be polite. You aren’t going to win any friends being a wine snob. Be open to trying new things and learning. 4. Enjoy responsibly. Many places have a patio and licence to serve wine by the glass, or allow you to take a bottle out to the vineyard. Just do so with care. No one wants to see you hauled off like Britney Spears after a club night. That’s it! If you are lucky you’ll get a little tour, history lesson and a few great bottles of wine before you head back home. Bonnie McBride is a local wine blogger.

A LESSON IN JESSICA WALLACE STAFF REPORTER jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com

en Lepinski recently got a phone call from a mushroom picker. The man had been foraging fungi with his neighbour and was surprised to read a notice by the Kamloops Naturalist Club, which said it would be discussing wild mushrooms, including poisonous varieties. “He said, ‘What? We have poisonous mushrooms in our area?’” said Lepinski, B.C. Nature Rep for the Kamloops Naturalist Club. “I said, ‘Yeah, several kinds.’ He could have easily picked something poisonous. I think that’s probably the best message to get across to people — there are poisonous mushrooms almost everywhere.”

The Kamloops Naturalist Club is hosting the recently retired Thompson Rivers University professor and mycologist Gary Hunt at the Heritage House tonight for his talk Amazing Mushrooms: Identification, Edibility and Ecology. The topic is timely. Earlier this month, a three-year-old boy who had been picking wild mushrooms with his family in Victoria died after eating an Amanita Phalloides, more commonly known as the death cap mushroom. Last month, the B.C. Centre for Disease Control and the Vancouver Mycological Society warned mushroom hunters to be cautious after calls to the province’s drug and poi-

son information centre doubled in July compared to previous years. “The basic principle is never eat anything that you haven’t accurately identified,” Hunt told KTW. Hunt hasn’t seen death caps in the Kamloops area, but hasn’t ruled them out. Mushrooms grow in a symbiotic relationship with trees and death caps grow among red oak and chestnut trees, which can be found locally. See PADDY, A20

Did you know? • Fungi aren’t plants — they have their own complex kingdom. • Not all poisonous mushrooms will kill you. Other side effects include nausea, diarrhea and dizziness.

• Fall is the most abundant mushroom season depending on levels of precipitation and timing before frost. • Edibles, non-edibles and poisonous mushrooms grow in forests,

Paddy straw mushroom looks like death cap, local expert says

For those who know where to look, wild mushrooms mean free food and a premiumquality product, often sold to restaurants and unlikely to be found in grocery stores due to their inability to grow in controlled conditions. Amateurs be warned, however, as edible mushrooms have poisonous lookalikes. While Hunt is unaware of the circumstances related to the death in Victoria, he said Southeast Asian immigrants familiar with the paddy straw mushroom easily confuse it with the death cap mushroom. “In Asian countries, the paddy straw mushroom is just as important commercially as the grocery store mushrooms we see in North America,” he said. “They see this similar-looking mushroom, they go home and this terrible mistake is made.” While the paddy straw and death cap similarly share a sac at the bottom and overall size and appearance, slight differences include gill, spore and cap colours. “It’s kind of learning what the key identification features are of our most common edibles,” Hunt said.

common to mistake a mushroom is its main body grows underground, so it’s easy to mistake identifying features when mushrooms are snipped from above. “Nobody wants to have dirt on their mushrooms, so they have a knife and they will cut the stem of the mushroom off, put the mushroom in a basket or a bag and they leave that key identifying feature behind and they haven’t realized that vulva — which is at the base,” Hunt said. “So they take these things home and, even if you try to key them out, you can’t make an identification if you don’t have the whole thing.

“The part that was partly underground at the base are the key identifying features. “If you don’t have that or you haven’t noticed that, you can make a bad mistake.” Hunt also advises learning the area. “Some of them will associate only with Douglas fir or maybe spruce,” he said of mushrooms. “You need to make note of what trees are around.” Hunt’s talk tonight is open to all. Admission is free. It starts at 7 p.m. Heritage House is at 100 Lorne St.

Forage safely

safe mushroom hunting: • If you are unsure or uncertain, don’t eat it. • Only pick and eat mushrooms that are well-known, distinct and easily identifiable. • Dig up the entire mushroom, if uncertain, to help in its identification. • If you suspect you’ve consumed a poisonous mushroom, call the B.C. Drug and Poison Information Centre, at 1-800-5678911, seek medical attention or call 911. • Always keep a sample of the mushroom or food that was eaten.

Stollery gives big to local organizations

Janet and Spencer Bryson recently handed out more than $130,000 and a vehicle to local non-profit organizations on behalf of their family’s Stollery Foundation. Top right: Helen Blair, education director of the Kamloops Child Development Centre (right), at 157 Holway St. accepts a $60,300 donation from the Brysons. The non-profit centre will use the money to buy a wheelchair-accessible multi-seat van to replace an aging vehicle. The centre is also creating a large nature-based playground that includes three mud kitchens like the one the Brysons are checking out. Middle: The Brysons (left) also presented a 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan to New Life Community executive director Stan Dueck. On hand for the recent presentation was Rivershore Chrysler sales and leasing associate Ernie Ware and New Life Community outreach centre manager Regan Wilson. Left: Pat Hartford (left), MacKenzie Papp, Amy Wesley, the Brysons, Colleen Lucier and Dave Barron celebrated the first donation from the Stollery Foundation to Lii Michif Optipemisiwak at 707 Tranquille Rd. The Brysons dropped off a cheque for $70,100, which the Metis agency will use to expand its space and programming for preschoolers. Papp said the creation of an urban learning centre will offer a drop-in program, prenatal information, child-parent play groups and a jigging program for children, among other services.

Triple O’s seventh-annual KidSport Day takes place tomorrow at 37 restaurants throughout the province — including the Kamloops eatery in the Chevron gas station in Aberdeen, at 1520 Hugh Allan Dr. The fundraiser helps financially under-privileged kids gain life skills like teamwork and self-confidence from participating in organized sports. Donations cover annual sports registration fees for kids 18 and under. All dol-

Streaks for a cause

Pink is the new purple — especially this month, when stylists are adding a punch of colour to clients’ hair for a good cause. Salons across the Southern Interior are uniting for Streak for Cancer, an independent fundraiser aimed at adding style and raising awareness of, and funds for, the Canadian

Cancer Society’s Breast Cancer Research Fund. Throughout Breast Cancer Awareness Month, participating salons are arming their staff with pink hair dye. For a $10 donation, clients can get a pink streak to show support for women facing breast cancer, a disease that affects more than 3,000 British Columbian women each year. Each salon is doing it a little differently, including the type of streak (perma-

nent, temporary or hair extension) and whether to host the event for one day or the entire month. Participating salons in Kamloops include Genesis Fashion & Beauty Complex at 319 Victoria St. (pink streaks by donation) and Headhunters Salon & Wellness Centre at 350 Seymour Street. Those wishing to help can contact participating salons or make a donation online at convio.cancer.ca/ goto/Streak.

VW ‘wagen’ has off-road cred

olkswagen has not gone into the kayak business but anybody attending the recent launch south of the line could be forgiven for thinking the watercraft was at least an optional extra with the 2017 VW Golf Alltrack. Everywhere we drove the station wagon, the red model with the kayak was placed in a photogenic and scenic location. The German manufacturer was driving home this all-wheel drive family ‘wagen’, as they spell it, is clearly aimed at those who frequently breathe in fresh air of the great outdoors. And to prove its street cred — sorry, backwoods cred — the launch route veered into offroad territory, complete with big bumps and deep ruts, which threatened to turn into mud within minutes of a downfall. The rain did not materialize but nevertheless, the off-road section was challenging enough to prove this vehicle would have little trouble negotiating a rugged trail back to civilization. For the second time in a couple of months, my co-driver grinned and commented this was likely the last time this particular vehicle would be forced to

negotiate such unforgiving terrain. The last time we each made the same observation was at the Alberta launch of the Subaru Forester. That said, VW should be applauded for bringing the allwheel drive Alltrack at last to North America because if you are outdoorsy it can do as you wish. I suspect, though, most owners will use it as a family car with lots of room at the back for groceries and kids’ sports gear and golf clubs. Domestic and Asian manufacturers have chosen to serve this market segment with sport ute light vehicles, dubbed crossovers. And boy have they been successful, eating up huge percentages of the overall market to the point some manufacturers are predicting

the demise of the sedan. The station wagon is a popular configuration in Europe and truly that style is best represented here by higher end German manufacturers. In the United States, the Alltrack is distinguished from the Golf lineup by being sold as a standalone model with its own three trim levels. That’s more of a marketing decision because our U.S. cousins are less convinced about the value of station wagons. Here it is one of the Golf SportWagen trims. The Alltrack is driven by a 1.8-litre turbocharged and directinjected four-cylinder, 170 horsepower engine, mated to a six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission (watch for a sixspeed manual shift in 2018 models).

It’s kept on track by the proven VW 4Motion all-wheel drive system. Though I hesitate to say it has anything like a sporty performance, it’s certainly not lacking in highway performance, where it will operate for most of the time as a front-wheeldrive mode. Of course, that ability to operate mainly as a FWD until AWD is called upon by the road is a major contributor to fuel economy. Final numbers are not available yet but VW Canada figure 10.6/8 L/100 (city/ highway) would be close to the mark. In appearance, the Alltrack is a SportWagen on steroids, bulked out with body cladding, bigger bumpers, silver roof rails, with an underbody guard and stance that raises it about

15 millimetres higher than its sibling. Inside, you won’t notice much different from the rest of the SportWagen family, save some subtle leather touches and a distinguishing black headliner. Standard is a 60-40 rear-split seat with pass through for those skis, you didn’t want to expose to the elements on the roof rack. Bonuses include a rearview camera, keyless access with push-button start and automatic dual-zone climate control plus a fabulous panoramic sunroof that takes in the whole sky or the forest canopy if you do indeed venture offroad. The infotainment system has a 6.5-inch colour touchscreen. The Alltrack is available now with a starting price of $35,295. For $1,310, the driver assistance package adds adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning and autonomous emergency braking (front assist), front and rear park distance control, lane assist and park assist, which aids in both parallel and perpendicular parking of the vehicle. If you have $1,610 in loose change, the light and sound package (includes Bi-Xenon headlights with the adaptive front-lighting system and light assist high beam control, LED daytime running lamps and a 400-watt, Fender premium sound system).

TRU’S LAST STAND

WOLFPACK TO WRAP LEARNING SEASON AT HOME ADAM WILLIAMS STAFF REPORTER adam@kamloopsthisweek.com

ALLEN DOUGLAS/KTW

Natalie Verdiel and the TRU WolfPack have taken their lumps this season, which wraps up this weekend with a pair of matches at Hillside Stadium. TRU is 1-10 on the campaign.

The Thompson Rivers WolfPack went into the season with their eyes wide open. But the women’s soccer club still had its moments that were hard to watch. Thompson Rivers will close out its Canada West season this weekend at Hillside Stadium against the Saskatchewan Huskies and Regina Cougars. Already out of playoff contention, the Pack are reflecting on a campaign that has featured more lows than highs in the last two months. “As maddening and frustrating and exhilarating and exciting as it has been, when I look back, I really don’t think anything has surprised us or the coaches at all,” first-year head coach Kelly Shantz said. He noted with the club’s youth and a new coaching staff, it was expected there would be a big learning curve to tackle. “I think we’d like to have had a little bit more success on the field and I think with a couple of breaks along the way, we’d have another tie, another win under our belt and feel a little better about ourselves in terms of the standings,” he continued. “But in terms of the program itself, we’re on solid footing and we’re excited for the future. I know I am, for sure.” The Wolves enter this weekend’s matches with a 1-10 regular-season record, their lone victory a 2-1 defeat of the winless UNBC Timberwolves in September. TRU has been outscored 47-3 in 11 contests, shut out nine times. Four of its defeats were by five goals or more, with the low point a 10-0 drubbing at the hands of the Calgary Dinos to kick off the 2016 season. It has been a difficult year, to say the least, but the group hasn’t let the difficulties break them. “It has been tough — losing most of your games is not fun,” freshman defender Cassie Morris said. “After games sometimes, you’re very frustrated. But everyone is supportive of each other so it really helps to get you back, focused.”

For Natalie Verdiel, one of a handful of players with any Canada West experience to don the black and orange this season, the WolfPack have come a long way since the early days of training camp. They’ve learned more about defensive shape, how to play together, the tactics and systems needed to succeed in the highest level of Canadian university soccer. And though the losses have piled up, she echoed Morris — the team hasn’t turned on itself. “I think we’ve built a pretty good environment,” Verdiel said. “I would hope that everyone would come back and we can continue to build off everything that we started this year. It would be unfortunate to lose everything that we worked on this year.” Athlete retention has sometimes been an issue for teams that struggle at Thompson Rivers, but Shantz said he has had no indication there will be a mass exodus of players from the women’s soccer program in advance of next season. In the meantime, the bench boss expects his players will continue grow, focusing on being 12 months fit and tackling feedback the coaching staff will be providing in exit meetings after this weekend. He is buoyed by the attitude the team is bringing to this weekend and beyond. Already, the group has volunteered to train for three more weeks following the end of the regular season, as if they had made the playoffs. The future is promising, he said. “It would be easy in a really tough year like this to start to fall apart a bit and start to looking toward the off-season and they don’t,” Shantz said. “They’re ready to work.” The WolfPack play on Saturday against the Cougars (3-6-3) and Sunday against the Huskies (6-3-3). Both games will get underway at 1 p.m. at Hillside.

Kilimanjaro conquered; ASSP benefits ADAM WILLIAMS

STAFF REPORTER

adam@kamloopsthisweek.com

When Mark Jones reached the Uhuru Peak of Mount Kilimanjaro, he dropped to his knees and wept like a child. Then he got out an Adaptive Sports at Sun Peaks (ASSP) banner

and took a photo with his wife, Helen. “It was incredible,” Mark said of the climb. “It was very tough, probably the toughest thing I’ll ever do, mentally and physically. Very emotional.” The Joneses returned to Canada from their African trek on Tuesday night,

arriving at Kamloops Airport to a crowd of supporters and wellwishers. The Kilimanjaro climb had been a longtime dream for the British expats who came to Canada in 2007, but the fundraiser benefitting ASSP was a late addition. Before KTW went to press yesterday, the couple had raised $922 on its GoFundMe

page, but Mark said when all the donations have been compiled, the enterprise will have well surpassed its $2,000 goal. “It was actually pretty late on that we thought, ‘We might as well do something constructive with it, as opposed to having a nice old time on holiday,’” Mark said. “We see what those guys do over winter

and we thought it would be a good excuse to get some attention their way and perhaps raise a couple of bucks for them.” The donations will be used to help a handful of ASSP students attend the 2017 Canadian Association for Disabled Skiing Ski and Snowboard Festival at Sun Peaks Resort in March.

Tom Fukami

Nobuo (Nobby) Nabata

On Monday, October 17, 2016, Nobuo (Nobby) Nabata passed peacefully at Overlander Residential Care. He was born on May 29, 1925. He is survived by his children Elaine, Wesley, Glenn and Casey (Debbie); grandchildren Emily, Sara, Isabel, Lyndsey, Scott, Kylie and Miko; many nieces, nephews and their families. He will be missed by his brothers Frank (Sumi) and Yosh (Sumiko). Nobby was predeceased by his loving wife Kay (1984) and his beloved youngest son Tad (2006); his brothers Eichi, Atsushi (Oatsy) and Tak. Nobby and his brothers managed Nabata Bros. Motors in Valleyview for many years. He loved to tinker with old cars. He enjoyed fishing and walking in the neighbourhood even in his later years. The family wish to thank the staff at Overlander for their compassionate care the past 18 months. According to Nobby's wishes there will be no funeral service. Cremation and interment will take place at Hillside Cemetary.

Special thanks to Dr. James Howie for his compassion and caring for Tom over the years, also to the staff at Pine Grove Lodge where Tom and I were part of their wonderful family. Our family of nurses and caregivers did all they could to ease Tom’s suffering. The support of our friend Arlene Weaver was truly appreciated. Special mention goes to Maggie Milne who had been Tom’s first caregiver over the years. Maggie made many visits to look in on Tom or keep him company when I was away. Without her help life would not have been as rich for Tom. Thanks also to Penni Osadchuk, niece Lillian Blades, niece Jennifer and Devon Chinook.

Peter was born in Prairie Echo, Alberta on January 30th, 1932. He came to Kamloops in the early fifties and started working for BC Hydro where he continued to work until his retirement in 1988. Peter and I met and were married in 1956. We were blessed with 60 years of happy times raising our two precious daughters, Betty Jean and Donna Diane and later on our four grandkids Mitch, Stephanie, Heather and Duncan. Peter was a proud Power Pioneer and did lots of volunteer work. His hobbies were photography, woodworking, gardening and visiting with our terrific neighbours. Peter enjoyed golf, square dancing, camping and traveling the world. He will be remembered as a kind, quiet man. A Celebration of his Life will be held in the Spring of 2017.

There will be a Celebration of Life for Tom at the Kamloops Japanese Canadian Association, 160 Vernon Avenue on Tuesday, November 15th at 2:00 pm with Bill Thomson officiating.

Arrangements entrusted to First Memorial, Kamloops 250-554-2429.

No Koden or flowers please. If you wish to make a donation please consider Pine Grove Lodge Resident’s Society or Kamloops Japanese Canadian Association.

Dad was a fighter and fought a valiant battle against Alzheimer’s for almost a decade. Alzheimer’s did not define Dad and he is remembered as a man passionate about life, devoted to his family and generous with his time and love. He was a hardworking man and inspired his family. We enjoyed his sharp wit and his quirky sense of humour. Dad was born December 6, 1930 in La Glace, Alberta to Inga and Lars Christianson. Having been raised during the Great Depression and WWII; shaped his core values and the man he became. As a young man he worked at the family sawmill in Prince George where he developed a lifelong passion for wood manufacturing. In 1950, he moved with his family to Kamloops where he met “the prettiest girl I had ever seen”. He and his loving wife Enes were married for 64 years. She was his rock. Dad spent 36 years with Weyerhaeuser Canada leading its operations in Kamloops, Lumby and Merritt and prior to retirement serving as the director of solid wood manufacturing for the company. He was highly regarded in the wood industry in British Columbia.

On Wednesday, October 12, 2016 Marjorie Patricia Baker passed away in Ashcroft, BC at the age of 89. She will be lovingly remembered by her son Philip, her son-in-law Donald Hendricks and grandson Robert Baker. Marjorie was predeceased by her husband Charlie, her daughter Helen and son Roger. Marjorie was born in Kamloops on December 18, 1926 where she completed her schooling and trained as an RN at Royal Inland Hospital, graduating from nursing in 1950. That same year she married Charlie and they moved to Loon Lake and had their first son Philip in 1954. Soon daughter Helen was born in June of 1957 and then son Roger in February of 1961.

Dad is survived by his wife Enes, daughters Beverly (Ken) Warner and Brenda Christianson and son Brian (Tracy) Christianson, grandchildren Kenny, Tara, Ryan, Jordan, Tanner and Aren, great-grandchildren Leena, Avery, Findlay, Luca, Ella and Lawson. Sister Ethel Fowles and brother Chris (Gerry-Lou) Christianson.

Marjorie was an artist and loved painting and was active in the Art Club in Ashcroft from 2005 until her passing. She loved horses, ranching and gardening and was especially fond of roses.

A Celebration of Life for Dad will be held on Saturday, October 22, 2016 at 11:00 am at Schoening Funeral Chapel in Kamloops, BC.

Condolences may be expressed at www.schoeningfuneralservice.com

In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to the Canadian Alzheimer’s Society in memory of Dad.

The Ship

There will be no formal service by request.

Schoenings Funeral Service 250-374-1454

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. 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!”.

Obituaries & In Memoriam Betty Jean Fisher (nee Leishman)

OH GREAT SPIRIT

1930 – 2016

Betty Fisher passed away peacefully at Gemstone Care Centre, Kamloops, BC, on October 13, 2016. She had lived a long and healthy life up until the past few years when she suffered from Alzheimer’s disease. Betty was 86 years of age. Born on October 5, 1930 in Alliston, Ontario, Betty lived and grew up in North Bay, Ontario. She graduated from Ottawa Civic Hospital School of Nursing in 1952, and worked at Toronto General Hospital and St. Margaret’s Hospital in Toronto until 1958. Betty then took a position at Wilson Memorial Hospital in Marathon, Ontario. She met Dan Fisher in Marathon, and they married on September 19, 1959. In 1966 Betty moved to BC with her husband and two small children. Betty is survived by her husband Daniel Fisher residing in Kamloops, BC; son Joe Fisher and daughter-inlaw Jackie and their daughter Lauren all residing in Munsingen, Switzerland; and daughter Karen Radic, nee Fisher and son-in-law Scott and their children Nicole and Adam all residing in Aurora, Ontario. Betty was predeceased by her mother Luella Leishman and her father Clyde Leishman, both from North Bay, Ontario. Betty’s career was important to her, as was her community involvement. She was a lifetime member of the Alumnae Association, Ottawa Civic Hospital School of Nursing; a long time member of the United Church of Canada; a volunteer for the Canadian Cancer Society, the Red Cross, the United Church and numerous other charitable organizations; and a volunteer for Census Canada. Betty was also a great neighbour and friend to many, enjoying coffee and “lunch with the ladies” on a regular basis. She loved to garden and was very proud of her home. She could often be found

puttering in the yard or watering her lawn on a hot summer evening. Betty’s favourite hobby was photography. After her husbands’ retirement Dan and Betty travelled extensively in the southern US, Europe and the Far East where Betty captured these memories with her camera. She documented these travels and many family memories in nearly 100 photo albums and scrapbooks. Betty cherished her home and her family. Despite living a great distance away from her two children, she was always very interested in their lives and the lives of her grandchildren, visiting them as often as possible and keeping in close contact. She will be greatly missed and lovingly remembered. Private family arrangements have been entrusted to Drake Cremation & Funeral Services, 210 Lansdowne Street, Kamloops, BC, V2C 1X7, 250-377-8225. The family would like to thank the caring staff at Gemstone Care Centre in Kamloops. Online condolences may be sent to the family via www.DrakeCremation.com. Donations in memory of Betty Jean Fisher to the Alzheimer’s Society of Canada, 20 Eglinton Avenue W., Suite 1600, Toronto, Ontario, M4R 1K8.

(250) 377-8225

Oh Great Spirit Whose voice I hear in the wind Whose breath gives life to the world Hear me I come to you as one of your many children I am small and weak I need your strength and your wisdom May I walk in beauty Make my eyes ever behold the red and purple sunset Make my hands respect the things that you have made And my ears sharp to hear your voice Make me wise, So that I may know the things you have taught your children The lessons you have hidden in every leaf and rock Make me strong, Not to be superior to my brothers But to be able to fight my greatest enemy — myself Make me ever ready to come to you with straight eyes So that when life fades, as the fading sunset My spirit will come to you without shame.

Does Pre-planning Require Pre-payment? Family owned & operated

The simple answer is just two letters: No. You can set plan to paper by simply recording your wishes, and leave it for your family to pay for your desired services at the time of your passing. Or, you can protect you and your family, by pre-funding your plan. This ensures your expenses will be covered when you need them to be. PROOF: KAM168
