The south wall of the main washroom in Riverside Park is home to a vibrant new mural, created in conjunction with last weekend’s second annual Kamloops International Buskers Festival. During the four-day festival, Landon Muzio, owner of 808 & Bench Apparel downtown, led an interactive art exhibit — a graffiti style urban art installation — that saw participants create temporary murals. Those were followed by the final product — a permanent mural for all to see.

Two illegally operating cannabis shops in Kamloops that were raided this week by the provincial government’s newly formed community safety unit have re-opened with new stock.

On Wednesday, a police cruiser could be seen outside Canadian Safe Cannabis Society (CSCS) at 405 Tranquille Rd. in North Kamloops and notices of seizure were posted to its doors and to the door of Boomer’s Bud — formerly known as Weeds — at 107-1295 Halston Ave. in Brocklehurst.

That notice reads that “cannabis has been seized by the Community Safety Unit (CSU) from this location under the Cannabis Control and Licensing Act.” However, Boomer’s and the CSCS were again open on Thursday, serving customers at each location.

The Canadian Safe Cannabis Society posted on its Facebook page that it was restocking.

“It’s wrong what the government is doing to sick medical cannabis user,” the company posted.

“People over profit!”

Kamloops RCMP Cpl. Jodi Shelkie said Mounties were at the locations in case the CSU required officers to keep the peace.

Colin Hynes, a spokesperson for the ministry’s CSU said the ministry is not commenting on its enforcement operations.

BEST DEALS OF THE SUMMER!

“All that we’re saying is we are actively following up with unlicensed retailers throughout all of B.C. and we’ve started to increase enforcement action throughout the province,” Hynes said.

Both the CSCS and Boomer’s Bud are known to sell marijuana for medicinal purposes, but neither are regulated by federal or provincial laws.

Medical marijuana is currently only legally accessible via mail and through licensed recreational shops, but only dried bud and oils have been legalized to date.

Following legalization of recreational cannabis on Oct. 17, 2018, the CSU began warning illegal marijuana shops to comply with regulations and shut down voluntarily.

Government delays movement of land title records from city JESSICA WALLACE

STAFF REPORTER

jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com

Kamloops-South Thompson MLA Todd Stone said the decision to delay movement of historical paper documents from the Kamloops Land Title Office to Victoria is a good first step, but he said he will continue to push for the plan to be scrapped altogether.

“At the end of the day, we think these land titles records should remain in Kamloops,” Stone told KTW. “There’s absolutely no reason for them to be relocated to Victoria and so we’re pleased that the government has hit pause on their decision.

“However, what really needs to happen is they actually need to cancel their decision outright and just keep the records here.”

Stone said an email was sent from the Land Title Survey Authority to its employees two weeks ago, indicating a delay in moving to its new Kamloops office by two years, from early 2020 to January 2022.

A copy of that email provided to KTW and signed by the registrar of land titles at the Land Title and Survey Authority of BC states: “After further consultation with our stakeholders, we have delayed plans to move to a new

office until January 2022, with records moving to Victoria by December 2021.

“This new schedule gives us time to gather further advice and feedback from stakeholders on the preservation and accessibility of historic land title records, particularly those related to First Nations.”

The local Land Title Office is located in the Kamloops Law Courts, downtown at Columbia Street and Fourth Avenue.

Whispering Pines Clinton Indian Band Chief Michael LeBourdais said he is “happy with the decision” to delay, but also called for the move to be scrapped in the long-term.

He launched legal action to stop movement of the original documents.

A cease-and-desist letter was sent to the province, but LeBourdais said the band has not heard back from government.

He said he received a call months ago from the Land Title CEO, attempting to indicate to LeBourdais that the documents would in a safe and secure location in Victoria. But he said band researchers and lawyers require original copies to deal with land claims in the area.

“Take some copies to Victoria and leave the originals here,” he said.

The email sent to land title

employees also states the Land Title and Survey Authority of BC will establish a historic records advisory committee to provide ongoing advice on the preservation and accessibility of records in its archives.

It will include members recommended by B.C. First Nations and the Ministry of Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation.

“Basically, they’ve pulled back on their decision to relocate these historical land title records, which is what Peter and I were calling for, pending proper consultation and engagement with the City of Kamloops, the regional district and area first nations,” Stone said, referring to fellow B.C. Liberal MLA Peter Milobar, who represents Kamloops-North Thompson.

Stone said the province moved “too quickly” and should not have made the decision prior to conversations with those impacted in the Kamloops area.

Stone said his understanding is that some of the records have already been moved out of Kamloops or were in the process of being moved. He said if any records have moved out of Kamloops, they should be returned immediately.

Stone added that between two-dozen and 50 government and private-sector jobs could be lost if original plans proceed.

Horse death spurs call for more patience

Brad Cameron (left) and son Ben lead their draft horses through the paces. Max died following a road incident just north of the McLure Ferry along Westsyde Road last weekend.

A neighbour who witnessed the incident tracked down the truck, with the driver then going to the police detachment.

Cameron said police did not charge the driver, though KTW is awaiting confirmation from Barriere RCMP. Now, Brad is out untold money, while grieving the loss of half his team.

Cameron hopes the tragedy will act as a reminder to drivers to slow down and be respectful of other road users — be they pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists, other drivers or those on horseback. He’d also like the driver to “do the right thing” and apologize.

“I’m devastated by the loss of my horse,” he said. “And I’m absolutely outraged that this individual didn’t have the decency to come back and apologize, look my crying kids in the eye, look at me crying and say,‘You know what I made a mistake. I’m really sorry.’”

The Ministry of Transportation advises motorists that sharing the road with horses is different from other modes of transportation, wherein horses are sensitive to the unfamiliar and can be unpredictable.

Panic-stricken, the father did everything he could to keep the wagon on track, as the horses barrelled down the road for about one kilometre, the truck driver apparently flying down the road ahead.

When the wagon came to a stop, Cameron said he was grateful his kids, who were understandably “freaked out”, were OK. However, one of the horses was not.

Max — an 1,800-pound working horse

TIPS: • Slow down long before you get close to horses and riders.

• Pass at a slower speed and give them a wider berth than you would a pedestrian or cyclist — at least one car width.

• Brake and accelerate gently, so you don’t make extra noise or spray gravel.

• Turn off your stereo and don’t honk or yell, so you don’t spook the horse.

• If you’re travelling with others by bicycle, scooter or motorcycle, approach single file.

JESSICA WALLACE

STAFF REPORTER

jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com

A rural property owner wants to raise awareness about shared road usage after an incident last Saturday morning that led to his horse’s death.

Brad Cameron, said he and his 13-yearold twins, Anna and Thomas, were out for a leisurely wagon ride, pulled by their draft horses, Max and Duke, at 11 a.m.

They were just north of the McLure Ferry along Westsyde Road, when a pickup truck turned up behind them on the narrow two-lane gravel road and went to pass.

The speed limit is 80 km/h, but the wagon was going between five or six km/h.

Anna apparently motioned for the driver to wait, as he eyed a driveway 60 feet ahead to pull over.

But the truck pulled out anyway. On the way by, a dog in the truck cab snapped at the horses, agitating them, Cameron said.

The truck driver apparently realized this and hit the gas pedal, attempting to mitigate the situation, but instead only making it worse.

Gravel and rocks spat up into the horses faces and the roar of the truck’s exhaust further added to the chaos.

“At that point, the horses blew up,” Cameron said. “They just went, ‘You know what, we’ve put up with a lot of stress right now. I am done. I can’t take this stress anymore.’ And they started charging off down the road. They’re in a dead run, ‘We’re out of here.’ We cant take this any more.’”

Max and Duke charged down Westyde Road faster than Cameron has ever been on a horse.

that Cameron said epitomized the saying “healthy as a horse” — collapsed. Cameron was with the horse for his last breath, before he died. He believes the cause to be a heart attack.

“I don’t know if it was from the running, the stress, I mean the whole scenario led to this horse passing away,” Cameron said, noting draft horses are large animals not meant to run. “And this horse was in the prime of his life.”

WATER CONSERVATION INDOOR WATER SAVING TIPS Water is essential to our daily lives. There is a potential for water conservation both inside and outside your home. Conserving water decreases the amount of water that requires treatment, which reduces wear and tear on major infrastructure.

Consider these water saving tips: • Keep a jug of water in the fridge instead of running the tap.

• Avoid pouring water down the drain—use it to water plants or fill your pet’s dish.

• Only run your dishwasher and washing machine when they are full.

• Limit showers to five minutes or less.

• Turn off the tap when brushing your teeth or shaving.

• Check for leaks in pipes and faucets.

• Avoid flushing the toilet unnecessarily—tissues, wipes, and hygiene products belong in the waste bin.

UNEVEN LEVEL OF ENFORCEMENT

W

hen it comes to provincial enforcement of illegally operating cannabis shops, it appears the playing field is not level.

Consider the raids this week of what are believed to be the final two illegal cannabis stores in Kamloops — Canadian Safe Cannabis Society in North Kamloops and Boomer’s Buds in Brocklehurst.

Neither has a business licence from the City of Kamloops permitting the sale of cannabis products. Canadian Safe Cannabis Society had a business licence authorizing it to consult on the product, while Boomer’s Buds had no licence whatsoever, according to the city.

Nor did either business have the required licence from the provincial government to sell cannabis.

(Canadian Safe Cannabis Society has long been operating as a medical marijuana store and has a large number of people with ailments who vouch for the store. This latest raid will likely be challenged in the courts.)

But the point here is not to argue the finer points of cannabis sales. It is to highlight the apparent selective practices employed by the new Community Safety Unit, created by the B.C. NDP government to enforce retail cannabis laws and shut down those operating illegally.

We have asked in the past and posed the query again this week: If the mandate of the Community Safety Unit is to target illegal operations, why has Pinnacle Access — a storefront on the Tk’emlups te Secwepemc First Nation reserve that sells illegal (edibles) products and does not have a provincial licence — been spared visits from the Community Safety Unit?

The powers-that-be refuse to answer a legitimate question that needs to be answered.

At this point, members of the Community Safety Unit appear to be little more than glorified bylaw officers, acting only when a local government body has a complaint.

Automatic for the people

T

he math is staring us in the face every time we walk into a store in Kamloops and beyond.

The additions and subtractions mean more machines and fewer people greeting customers.

But is the equation’s answer fewer jobs? That is hard to say, as some companies will claim otherwise and other firms refuse to comment on the answer to the calculations of machines and employees in the retail industry.

Without a doubt, though, it is all about automation, that humaninvented process intended to reduce or eliminate the need for humans to engage with humans while humans engage in the economy.

The Walmart store in Kamloops is by no means the only operation that has introduced self-checkout tills, but it may be the one outlet locally that has laid the biggest bet on the faceless, voiceless cashiers.

This past Monday, there were more traditional tills than there were self-checkouts.

On Tuesday morning, the 12-items-or-less, people-powered express lanes, of which there were a half-dozen, had been replaced by self-checkouts.

What was once a minority is now a massive majority, with Walmart now housing 10 tills that require cashiers (though many are often closed) and 20 self-checkout tills, which can be open 24/7, as long as the BC Hydro bill is paid.

Predictably, the sudden increase in the self-checkout tills caused a stir online, with plenty of complaints on social media.

I understand the consternation as I am a people-cashier guy,

CHRISTOPHER FOULDS

Newsroom

MUSINGS regardless of how long the line may be.

But the steady stream of customers lining up to scan their own groceries, pay their own bills, print their own receipts and bag their own items tells me society as a whole has accepted this latest form of automation.

I may hate self-checkouts — and drive-thrus and bacteria-laden fast food kiosks and automated teller machines at banks — but I am not the majority.

I realize I am on the losing team, but like the beleaguered Mike Reilly of the B.C. Lions, I refuse to take myself out of the game and will go down fighting.

There is the familiarity of what has always been and there is a certain futile nobility attached to shunning the latest technological advancement in favour of remaining linked to a flesh-and-blood known, but change is constant and change always emerges victorious.

Be it landlines versus cellphones, email versus Canada Post or even wireless BC Hydro meters versus the analog variety, it is always only a matter of time until the new swallows the old whole.

As we reach a certain age, we tend to wax eloquent about how much better the past was — from music to friendships to literature to fashion.

But we often remember all that was fine and conveniently forget all that was foul.

I consider myself a firm traditionalist on many matters and I have been known to yell at a cloud now and then for no reason, but I certainly would think twice about embracing dentistry pre-anesthesia, or driving pre-air bags and seatbelts, or hockey pre-forward pass.

The influx of self-checkout machines and fast food kiosks are being presented as part of a more efficient customer service experience, and they may be that, considering the numbers of shoppers embracing the technology.

And perhaps there are not massive job losses attached to their arrival — consider the growth of ordering groceries, which has spawned the creation of employees whose shifts consist of shopping for you.

In these changing times, I defer to the great Alan Jackson and his wonderful salute to tradition, I Still Love Bologna: “Well, I guess what I’ve been trying to say, this digital world is OK. It makes life better in a lot of ways.

“But it can’t make the smell of spring or sunshine or lots of little things we take for granted every day.

OPINION LETTERS TO THE EDITOR WIDEN ROUTE TO AIRPORT

WAITING TIME FOR PERMIT OUTRAGEOUS

Editor: With the City of Kamloops considering another major capital expenditure, surely widening Tranquille Road to Kamloops Airport would be a top priority.

The project should include a sidewalk for residents’ safety.

Such work would benefit all residents of and visitors to Kamloops and area.

Brian F. Hitchens Kamloops

Editor: Late last Sunday, I sent the following message to Mayor Ken Christian, with copies to each city councillor: My wife and I returned to Kamloops in June of 2018 after an absence of many years due to employment.

Now retired and operating a homebased business, we purchased a home in Aberdeen, with the idea of adding an accessory building to serve as a workshop for my woodworking hobby.

After having a set of plans prepared by a professional drafting company and other documents required by the permitting process, I was told there was a six- to

eight-week waiting period to obtain a building permit.

Let me point out that this application is not for some multi-storey commercial development requiring intensive engineering.

We are talking about a simple 18-footby-26-foot detached “garage” on a concrete slab — among the simplest building projects one could imagine.

I’m quite certain I could construct the structure in less time than the forecast processing time for a building permit.

As a taxpayer, I am outraged at what I consider a totally inadequate level of service. I understand there is a good deal

MARVELOUS MURAL

FIX OUR ROADS Editor: We have heard this before, but it has to be said again.

I have lived in North Kamloops for the past 50 years and our roads are in the worst condition ever.

As Mayor Ken Christian is more concerned with building an arts centre, maybe it’s time the North Shore had its own mayor.

Ted VanDyk Kamloops

of building occurring in Kamloops and welcome the influx of business and new residents.

Having said that, I believe the city has failed to provide sufficient resources to adequately serve its citizens in a timely fashion.

I am convinced that with proper management, minor building projects such as mine could easily be fast-tracked to avoid such unnecessary delays.

Kindly advise what steps you will undertake to correct this dismal level of service to the citizens of this community.

Ken Carrothers Kamloops

Editor: While visiting Kamloops last year, I viewed the downtown murals and enjoyed them tremendously.

I couldn’t help noticing the

walls of the Lansdowne Parkade and thinking they would be a great place for a feature art piece.

I returned to the city to close on our new house and got shivers when I saw Community Confluence, the mural now gracing the parkade.

Alan Kuhnert Kamloops

DISAPPOINTED IN LAYOUT OF NEW DOG PARK Editor: Last weekend, I took my dog to the new dog park in McDonald Park.

We were looking forward to off-leash time, but it didn’t happen.

I have a walker and there are only two entrances. The first one is up a small, steep hill and there are stairs on the other

side. I cannot use either entrance.

From a distance, I was able to observe no shade for humans and their fur babies on hot days.

I carry my own supply of water and a bowl. It appears someone left an empty bowl next to the water fountain, but I do not know if that fountain works.

There is nothing for us humans to sit on while we are watching our pets enjoy their freedom.

I am disappointed, as is my Missteaka, who cannot have off-leash time I promised her.

Help slow the destructive invasion of knotweed Japanese knotweed, which looks like bamboo with white flowers and heart-shaped leaves, has the ability to penetrate asphalt, concrete and cement, with potential negative impacts to roads, sidewalks and building foundations, due to its 20-metre root systems.

STAFF REPORTER

jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com

The ThompsonNicola Invasive Plant Management Committee wants the public to keep an eye out for an invasive plant that has sprung up in patches throughout the area.

The goal is to prevent the alien species from spreading out of control and wreaking havoc on infrastructure.

Japanese knotweed, which looks like bamboo with white flowers and heart-shaped leaves, has the ability to penetrate asphalt, concrete and cement, with potential negative impacts to roads, sidewalks and building foundations, due to its 20-metre root systems.

By comparison, a tomato plant has about a half-metre root system.

The Japanese knotweed has the ability to

reproduce through that root system if not dealt with properly via chemical treatment, with only a half-gram worth of root left behind in soil all that is required to grow a new plant.

Native to eastern Asia and introduced to North America in the 1800s, Japanese knotweed first popped up in B.C. in the Lower Mainland, where it has

been prolific, as well as up the coast.

It is currently only in random spots throughout the ThompsonNicola region, invasive plant management co-ordinator Coleen Hougen said, which is why the regional district hopes to educate the public and prevent further infestation.

Hougen said legislation does not enforce

invasive plants to the extent that is necessary, resulting in nurseries continuing to sell such plants and gardeners continuing to plant them in their yards.

“A lot of people have planted them as a horticultural plant,” Hougen said. “It could be in their backyard.”

Hougen is asking residents to choose plants that are

native to this area.

The Invasive Species Council of BC is also working with the horticulture industry to prevent invasive plants from being sold.

Once spotted, Hougen is asking people report identified infestations of Japanese knotweed by calling 250-851-1699 or emailing invasvieplants@ tnrd.ca.

Whereas some plants can be eradicated and spreading prevented hand-pulling or snipping of their buds, Hougen noted Japanese knotweed must be treated with glyphosate, the herbicide found in Roundup.

In addition, eradicated Japanese knotweed should not be disposed of in a backyard or via composting.

it’s bc Day so stop by for the

Instead, it needs to be properly buried deep in a landfill, something for which residents should phone ahead to ensure.

“It is really important for people to give us a call before they manage it on their own,” Hougen said.

The regional district is also working with the Ministry of Transpiration to manage spotted knapweed, in addition to combatting hoary alyssum and scotch thistle.

PUBLIC NOTICE

Trans Mountain Pipeline ULC, as General Partner of Trans Mountain Pipeline L.P. Trans Mountain Expansion Project Notice of Proposed Detailed Route Pursuant to Paragraph 34(1)(b) of the National Energy Board Act

IN THE MATTER OF the National Energy Board Act and the Regulations made thereunder.

The process for considering statements of opposition will be as follows:

AND IN THE MATTER OF Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity OC-065 approving the general route of the Trans Mountain Expansion Project.

• Previous detailed route decisions, including conditions imposed by the Board, will stand if no statement of opposition is filed in relation to them within thirty (30) days following the publication of this notice. Accordingly, no action on the part of a landowner is required to ensure that Trans Mountain continues to be bound by the conditions in the original detailed route decisions.

AND IN THE MATTER OF an application by Trans Mountain Pipeline ULC, on behalf of Trans Mountain Pipeline L.P., (“Trans Mountain”), respecting the determination and approval of the detailed route for the construction of the Trans Mountain Expansion Project, approximately 1179.9 kilometres in length, commencing at Trans Mountain’s Terminal located in Sherwood Park, Alberta to Westridge Marine Terminal located in Burnaby, British Columbia as shown on the adjacent Route Map. If you anticipate that your lands may be adversely affected by the proposed detailed route of the Trans Mountain Expansion Project, you may oppose the proposed detailed route by filing a written statement of opposition with the National Energy Board (Board) within thirty (30) days of the publication of this notice. The written statement of opposition must set out the nature of your interest in the proposed detailed route and the grounds for your opposition to that route. In light of the previous detailed route processes that were conducted for the Trans Mountain Expansion Project in 2017 and 2018, the Board will only accept statements of opposition that raise concerns regarding a material change in circumstances from the original detailed route processes. A copy of any written statement of opposition to this detailed route must be sent to the following addresses: National Energy Board Suite 210, 517 Tenth Avenue SW Calgary, Alberta T2R 0A8 Attention: Sheri Young, Secretary of the Board Phone: 403-292-4800 Toll Free Fax: 1-877-288-8803 Email: TMX.ProcessHelp@neb-one.gc.ca Website: www.neb-one.gc.ca And to: Trans Mountain Expansion Project Suite 2700, 300 5th Ave SW, Calgary Alberta T2P 5J2, Attention: Alain Parisé, Director, Land Fax: 403-514-6401 Email: TMEP_Land@transmountain.com

• If a written statement of opposition is filed with the Board within thirty (30) days following the publication of this notice, the statement relates to a previous detailed route decision, and the statement raises concerns regarding a material change in circumstances from the original detailed route process, the Board will conduct a review of the previous detailed route decision.

• For detailed route hearings that were in progress on August 30, 2018 and no decision was issued, landowners and Indigenous communities need to register their continued objection by filing a statement of opposition within thirty (30) days following the publication of this notice. The Board will then continue the hearing and may add new process steps, as necessary, to address any valid concerns with respect to changed circumstances.

• Landowners and Indigenous communities that did not file a statement of opposition in the previous detailed route process, whose statement of opposition was rejected or that withdrew their statement of opposition prior to a detailed route hearing, may file a new statement of opposition within thirty (30) days following the publication of this notice. If the statement of opposition raises a material change in circumstances, the Board will hold a hearing to consider those concerns, in relation to any section or part of the pipeline affected by the concerns disclosed in the written statement.

The Board is not required to give any notice, hold any hearing or take any other action with respect to any written statement of opposition filed with the Board and may at any time disregard any such written statement if the person who filed the statement files a notice of withdrawal, or if it appears to the Board that the statement is frivolous, vexatious or is not made in good faith.

If the Board determines it appropriate to hold a public hearing, the Board will fix a suitable time and place for the hearing and will publish a notice of the hearing in at least one issue of a publication

in general circulation within the area in which the lands acquired or proposed to be acquired are situated. The Board will also send a notice of the public hearing to each person who has filed a written statement of opposition with the Board.

The public hearing will be conducted within the area in which the lands to which the statement relates are situated. The Board, or a person authorized by the Board, may make such inspection of the lands acquired or proposed to be acquired, or affected by, construction of the Trans Mountain Expansion Project, as deemed necessary by the Board.

If the Board determines a public hearing is required, the Board will permit each person who filed a written statement of opposition that met the requirements to make representations and may allow any other interested person to make representations before it as the Board deems proper. The Board will take into account all written statements of opposition and all representations made at the public hearing in determining the best possible route of the pipeline, and the most appropriate methods and timing of construction for the Trans Mountain Expansion. The Board may impose in any approval, such terms and conditions as it considers proper. Where the Board has held a public hearing in respect of any section or part of the Trans Mountain Expansion Project, and has approved or refused to approve the plan, profile and book of reference respecting that section or part, it will forward a copy of its decision and reasons to the Minister and each person who made representations to the Board at the public hearing.

The Board may fix such amount as it deems reasonable in respect of the actual costs reasonably incurred by any person who makes representations to the Board at such a public hearing, and the amount so fixed will be paid forthwith to the person

by Trans Mountain.

Lawyer says clubs providing a service From A3

Kamloops lawyer Shawn Buckley, who has represented the CSCS previously, described the timing of the raids as “crazy,” given that edibles will be legalized in a couple months, eliminating a grey area in which compassion clubs like the CSCS have operated in since a 2015 Supreme Court of Canada decision stating medical marijuana is legal to consume in all forms.

“They’re [compassion clubs] really fulfilling a service until they’re [edibles] available through other means,” Buckley said.

The federal government announced in June that marijuana edibles will be legalized on Oct. 17, 2019 — one year after dried cannabis was legalized — but supplies won’t likely be on shelves until mid-December.

“What’s lost on the province’s decision is any regard for people that legitimately rely on these things,” Buckley said, noting a large contingent of the CSCS’s clientele are elderly people with chronic pain. What are they supposed to do if the province succeeds in shutting down all of these clubs?” Buckley asked. “Most of them are using cannabis for pain control because the other stuff doesn’t work or they don’t want to be addicted to opioids.”

Buckley said it doesn’t make sense that the federal government will wait until near the end of 2019 to legalize edibles.

“Why didn’t they come out with the regulations in 2015 to allow the medi-

cal producers to sell edibles? Why didn’t they do it in 2016? Why didn’t they do it in 2017? Why didn’t they do it in 2018?,” Buckley asked.

The Tranquille Road and Halston Avenue locations were two of just three illegally operating marijuana shops that were open when recreational marijuana was legalized on Oct. 17, 2018.

The third remaining illegal shop — Phyven Herbal Dispensary, located downtown on Victoria Street — voluntarily shut its doors earlier this year, but the location was later taken over by Boomer’s, City of Kamloops business license inspector David Jones told KTW. Boomer’s eventually closed that location, but kept its 12th Street business open, he said.

Jones said at one point Kamloops had 13 illegal dispensaries operating in town, with 11 closing their doors prior to this week’s actions by the CSU. No raid is believed to have been conducted at Pinnacle Access — the retail cannabis shop that has been illegally selling edibles and concentrates from its storefront on the Tk’emlups te Secwepemc First Nation reserve.

Pinnacle Access does not have a provincial licence to operate, but has received approval from the Tk’emlups band.

A person who answered the phone at Pinnacle Access on Wednesday said they had “no comment” when asked if the store was also subject to a raid.

City of Kamloops business licence inspector David Jones speaks to media outside Boomer’s Bud in Brocklehurst on Thursday.

The unlicensed cannabis store re-opened a day after being raided and having product seized by the provincial Community Safety Unit.

City is advising cannabis shop owners to get proper licensing MICHAEL POTESTIO

The owners of two illegal cannabis shops in Kamloops are still welcome to do business — as long as they go through the proper channels, according to city business licence inspector David Jones.

Jones said it’s unfortunate the two stores — Boomer’s Bud in Brocklehurst and the Canadian Safe Cannabis Society (CSCS) in North Kamloops — have chosen to re-open withour proper licensing after being raided by the province’s Community Safety Unit (CSU).

Jones went to observe activity at both stores on Thursday morning upon hearing from media that they had reopened.

He said said he entered Boomer’s Bud and saw customers coming and going. He said he didn’t gain entry to the CSCS, but saw a customer visiting the store.

Jones said the city has other enforcement options to discuss to ensure the stores stay closed, citing fines from the municipality or a court injunction.

“It’s something I’d have to take to our senior management and see what their interests are,” Jones said, noting the city first strives for voluntary compliance.

Jones said he won’t be informing the CSU the stores have reopened, suggesting the unit will obviously be aware of the current situation given that the stores have advertised on social media that they are back in business.

Jones said CSU members from Prince George, Kelowna and Surrey seized inventory from the stores.

Jones, who accompanied CSU members during the North Kamloops raid, said CSU mem-

bers entered the store, identified themselves and asked the two staff members inside to leave.

“The CSU then seized all product that contained cannabis,” Jones said. “After we were finished, the store was turned back over to the staff.”

Jones said only cannabis products were seized, noting no cash nor equipment was taken.

Though not part of the raid at Boomer’s Buds, Jones said the actions taken by CSU members there would have been the same.

Store owners stand to be fined thousands of dollars as, according to Jones, fines will amount to double the sale prices of all the items that were seized.

Jones said the seized product will eventually be destroyed by the CSU, noting he advised both store owners to go legit.

The CSU has visited them twice, asking that they voluntarily close their doors and undertake proper procedures to become legal.

“Their mandate is to educate and convince voluntarily compliance; however, the stores in Kamloops didn’t do that, so they felt it necessary to visit them and take the next level of enforcement,” Jones said.

Neither the Tranquille Road nor Halston Avenue locations are permitted by the city’s bylaws to house cannabis shops — the CSCS is operating too close to a recently licensed private shop, while Boomer’s storefront is not properly zoned.

Jones said he encouraged CSCS owner Carl Anderson to make an application for 405 Tranquille Rd. — something that would have required he first close.

“Unfortunately, he didn’t and another applicant has made the

application across the street,” he said.

Both stores were operating in Kamloops prior to the legalization of cannabis, neither of which had a business licence.

Jones said the city has been open and flexible when dealing with applicants, noting its jurisdiction pertains to location and zoning, while it’s up to the province to determine whether an applicant receives a provincial licence to sell cannabis.

Jones said the CSU is taking action to eliminate cannabis that is not manufactured and distributed by approved sources.

“It’s all black market cannabis,” Jones said, pointing to the unknown quality control with stillillegal products, such as edibles, being sold out of unregulated shops.

“Right now, all edibles that are in these stores are made in the back, in the kitchens or by whoever else is supplying that, so who knows how much cannabis or how much THC or how much other ingredients are in these things?” he said.

Pinnacle Access — the retail cannabis shop that has been illegally selling edibles and concentrates from its storefront on the Tk’emlups reserve — was not raided by the CSU and remains open.

Jones, who sits on the Joint Provincial-Local Government Committee on Cannabis Regulation, said he heard in a meeting last week that the province is in consultation with First Nations groups and asking for them to cooperate with provincial regulations.

“That’s an ongoing discussion and let’s hope the First Nations groups will comply with the provincial regulations and open a store in compliance with the provincial regulations,” Jones said.

Compost advocate to visit council in August JESSICA WALLACE

STAFF REPORTER

jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com

A Kamloops resident hopes to present healthy support for an organics collection program later this month at city hall.

An online petition that pushes for the city to implement a curbside composting program will go to city council at the end of August.

Addie de Candole spearheaded the change.org petition and said she will be in council chambers on Aug. 27 to demonstrate support for the initiative.

Through the end of July, about 1,200 people had added their names to the campaign.

She said about 100

continue to add their names daily, with the initiative having launched in the past two weeks.

“It’s a lot more than we thought,” de Candole said.

“I have heard a few people who want to get involved. They’ve been really positive. I haven’t really heard any pushback.”

The petition calls for curbside organics collection, with food scraps from homes and restaurants to be composted.

De Candole said Kamloops residents waste almost 700 kilograms of food per person per year, with nearly half of the waste compostable.

The idea for a curbside compost program has been discussed at

‘Anomaly’ in Grade 12 final marks repaired The issue that caused student grade anomalies with some June 2019 provincial exam results has been resolved and students will again be able to access corrected final exam marks and grades via the student transcripts service.

In a message posted Monday via the ministry’s online transcript service, students were advised of the problem and assured that ministry staff were working to identify and resolve the issue as quickly as possible.

After investigating the incident, the ministry determined human error led to some grades being entered incorrectly.

The ministry said the manual error occurred when the grade thresholds from the scoring system were entered incorrectly into the reporting system. The error resulted in the assessments being miscalculated, with many students showing a lower result than expected.

The issue was discovered on July 29 after schools contacted the ministry asking about apparent anomalies in student results.

The issue involved five provincial exams taken between June 22 and 23 and affected about 32,000 students in Communications 12, English 12, English First Peoples 12, French Language Arts (first language) 12 and French Language Arts (second language) 12.

Post-secondary institutions in B.C., across Canada and NCAA schools in the United States were notified of the issue on July 30 to ensure no student applications were impacted.

The ministry said it will be providing transcripts to those schools directly to prevent any further delay.

“I am confident that students and families can now know their grades are correct,” Education Minister Rob Fleming said.

“I know this has caused anxiety for students and their families, and I want to assure them that this will not have an impact on admission to colleges and universities.”

city hall in the past, but the city says it is waiting to solidify its biosolids management

plan, which could include organics collection.

The problem the

city faces is not in collecting organics, but in what to do with it once collected.

motorized watercraft when a state of local emergency has been declared.

TNRD chair Ken Gillis discussed the issue with B.C. Minister of Emergency Preparedness, Mike Farnworth in Victoria.

“We are quite hopeful that we will get some results on that because once the waters are in a flood situation, there are areas of land exposed to those waters which are not exposed to the waters under normal circumstances,” Gillis said.

“So they’re not fortified in any ways against those waves. So, when people are putting up

huge wakes with boats under those conditions, that does pose a real serious problem both for erosion and for safety.”

Gillis stressed restrictions would only apply when a state of local emergency has been declared, noting there have been cases of people standing up to their knees in water filling sandbags, while simultaneously being hit by boat wakes.

“It has nothing to do with regular boating,” he said.

The resolution will be debated during the UBCM convention, which will be held in Vancouver from Sept.

23 to Sept. 27.

Kamloops gets new Supreme Court master The provincial government has appointed a new Supreme Court of B.C. master in Kamloops.

The appointment of Jennifer Keim to the Kamloops Law Courts is effective as of Aug. 1.

Keim received a bachelor of laws from the University of Alberta in 1995 and was called to the B.C. bar in 1996. She joined the British Columbia Lottery Corporation in 2013. A year later, Keim was appointed general counsel, director of legal services and information management and corporate secretary.

Prior to joining BCLC, Keim worked for more than 16 years in private practice, focused primarily on family law. She has appeared regularly in both the Supreme Court and provincial court and has been a certified family law mediator since 1999.

WHAT IS A MASTER? Fifteen Supreme Court masters sit at Supreme Court locations in Kamloops, Vancouver, Victoria, New Westminster, Kelowna and Nanaimo.

Presiding in civil chambers and registrar hearings, a master makes decisions about pre-trial motions and procedural orders.

HOW IS A MASTER APPOINTED? Lawyers submit applications, which are reviewed by an ad hoc committee made up of B.C.’s deputy attorney general, a justice of the Supreme Court of B.C., a representative of the Law Society of British Columbia and a representative of the Canadian Bar Association’s B.C. branch.

Following consultation with the chief justice, the attorney general makes a recommendation to cabinet, which makes appointments through an order-in-council.

And a BIG thank-you to the many volunteer parents that helped make this event the success that it was!!

With Western medical treatments either unavailable or failing, Carolyn Rempel has recently turned to alternative therapies for her cancer — and she is hoping friends and family in Kamloops can help her cover the costs for these treatments.

Rempel, a well-known and longtime server at the Westsyder Pub, was diagnosed with stage four terminal stomach cancer on Dec. 18, 2018.

She was given six to 12 months to live and began chemotherapy.

On March 26, a PET scan revealed two polyps in her abdomen. Though they were initially thought to be inactive, Rempel was diagnosed on June 26 with peritoneal carcinomatosis (a rare type of cancer in the thin layer of tissue that lines the abdomen and covers most of the abdominal organs) and malignant ascites (the accumulation of fluid around organs in the abdomen).

Unfortunately, the prognosis for those cancers between one and four months.

But Rempel has yet to give up, hoping to make it to her daughter’s wedding in September.

Rempel’s daughter, Montana Bodenham, has her wedding set for Sept. 14 in Tofino and she remains hopeful her mother will be able to attend.

“I can’t imagine not having my mom at my wedding and, just recently, we were getting a little scared that she might not be,” Bodenham said, noting the wedding will also allow daughter and mother to have the family vacation they’ve dreamed of sharing together for years.

“I always dreamed of a des-

tination wedding and Tofino is special to my fiancé and me,” she said.

“It is also been a dream of my mom’s to go on a family vacation for as long as I can remember, so we are both having our dreams come true with this wedding.”

Though she stopped chemotherapy before the second diagnosis, Rempel said she would be too weak to start that treatment again, even if she wanted to go that route.

Instead, she is pursuing treatments including naturopathic oncology, immunotherapy, cell therapy, vaccine therapies, blood oxygenation and high dose vitamin and mineral infusions.

She is now at a facility in Mexico.

The treatments aren’t cheap, though, and Rempel and her family have a fundraiser planned to help defray costs. The money raised is also intended to help Rempel recover at home and not have to work during that period and fund a return trip to Mexico in 10 to 12 weeks for follow-up vaccine treatment.

“With such a grim prognosis, it’s imperative that my body rest and heal,” she said.

The fundraiser will be held on Thursday, Aug. 8, at The Dunes at Kamloops Golf Course in Westsyde. Tickets are $50 and include a buffet dinner, silent auction, 50/50 draw, door prizes, drink specials, a bottle raffle and a comedy show by Ryan Williams.

Doors open at 5 p.m., with the show starting at 7 p.m.

Early numbers for the fundraiser were discouraging, but according to Bodenham, they have picked up over the last week.

“A lot of us girls have been working double time to get tickets sold,” she said. “A lot of Carolyn’s friends have come together to help with running the fundraiser and I believe that we have enough volunteers now for this to run smoothly We still have tickets available for the fundraiser, as well.”

Tickets are available at the Westsyder Pub or through Bodenham at 778-586-5019 or Shauna Bymoen at 20-8106444. They can also be purchased through an e-transfer at shaunabymoen@hotmail.com, with tickets held at the door.

Frenchies still looking for food trailer DISTINCTIVE-LOOKING VEHICLE WAS STOLEN EARLY TUESDAY MORNING

MICHAEL POTESTIO

STAFF REPORTER

michael@kamloopsthisweek.com

The food trailer of Kamloops’ best-known poutinerie has been stolen.

It belongs to Frenchies Poutinerie, which sells its food from its store in the 300-block of Victoria Street downtown.

As of Thursday afternoon, the trailer remained missing.

The company posted on its Facebook page on Tuesday night, asking the public to keep an eye out for the distinctive-looking trailer: “Hey guys, can you please all share this. Someone stole our food trailer and we really need it back.

“I have put my heart and sweat into this thing, not to mention the countless hours of customizing it and getting it ready for events.

“We have been prepping for the past week for our big event this weekend. We have several thousand pounds of potatoes cut and prepped just to have someone %*#%+ steal it. If anyone has seen anything, please message us ASAP.” According to PAPER ROUTES AVAILABLE

250-374-7467

circulation@kamloopsthisweek.com

Brandon Bauer, manager of Frenchies’ downtown location, the trailer was stolen from the area of Pine Street and Sixth Avenue in South Kamloops sometime between 3 a.m. and 6 a.m. on Tuesday.

It was parked in the driveway of business owner Élie Hana’s house.

Bauer said Hana saw the trailer at about 3 a.m., so the theft occurred between then and 6 a.m., when a neighbour told Hana the trailer was missing.

Bauer said a lock over the trailer’s hitch appeared to have been cut off.

The trailer was expected to be used at this weekend’s Rockin’ River Music Festival in Merritt, and the company had just purchased 300 boxes of potatoes ahead of the event, Bauer said.

“It was the singlelargest event we had committed to doing ever with the truck by magnitude,” Bauer said.

He said Frenchies had the truck for at least 18 months and estimates its value to be in the six figures.

The trailer is adorned with a photo

of poutine and the company logo. It has an awning over the trailer door and window and a deep fryer vat on the roof.

Initial reports indicated the trailer may have been spotted on Tuesday night near Salmo, a small town in the Kootenays, about 30 minutes northeast of Trail. However, those sightings may have been of a different food truck and trailer that operates in the region — the La Poutinery.

Bauer said he received a tip on Thursday that the trailer might be somewhere in the Lower Mainland.

“A gentleman was 100 per cent confident he saw it,” Bauer said.

“He’s the owner of a trucking company down in Abbotsford and he was saying it was parked outside his lot.”

Bauer said the theft has been on his mind for days and he believes it was a targeted, multi-person job, with thieves equipped with a hacksaw or bolt cutters and a place to store the distinctive trailer.

“They would have needed to have access to a minimum half-ton truck,” he said.

“Maybe they weren’t going after that trailer specifically, but they were definitely out to

Baker of United Way pleased after meeting with province JESSICA WALLACE

STAFF REPORTER

jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com

United Way Thompson Nicola Cariboo executive director Danalee Baker labelled positive a meeting with the

province last week to discuss social aid for communities impacted by sawmill closures or curtailments.

Baker met with the Ministry of Forest Lands and Natural Resource Operations last Tuesday, after the

United Ways of B.C. sent a letter to Premier John Horgan on July 19, requesting $3 million worth of social aid.

“I feel really encouraged,” Baker told KTW. The United Way

wants to partner with the province to invest $200,000 into 15 communities impacted, doled out through the United Way’s established relationships with agencies and communities. Baker said the organiza-

tion reacted during the wildfire crisis and hopes to be proactive this time, with money in place by October or November in anticipation severance packages will run out and the holiday season will increase stress.

Baker noted a spinoff in the community.

In addition to those directly impacted, she said: “It’s the contractors, it’s those who provide the mills

with services, deliver equipment, do maintenance, do cleaning.

It’s also the communities where they would buy their groceries.”

Myriad announcements in recent months linked to sawmill closures or curtailments throughout the province. As communities and the province grapple with the economic impacts, the United Way notes non-profits will be left to manage increased

need for programs and services that improve quality of life amidst crisis.

“Severance packages and transition teams will ensure that the future is planned for in the short term,” the letter states.

“But as winter and the holiday season approaches, food, heating, clothing and mental health with be a growing concern for those facing unemployment.”

Ride hailing plans afoot MICHAEL POTESTIO

STAFF REPORTER

sports@kamloopsthisweek.com

A Vancouver-based tech company wants to rollout ride-hailing services to Kamloops once the provincial government starts accepting applications in September.

Kater Technologies operates a hybrid taxi and ride-hailing service in Metro Vancouver and has plans to launch a traditional ride-hailing option similar to Uber and Lyft in different markets throughout B.C. later this fall.

In an email to KTW, Kater’s chief executive officer, Scott Larson, said his company’s arrival in Kamloops will depend on driver and rider supply and demand, but Kater intends to be present in the community before the end of the year.

Larson described the Okanagan area of the province as a key market.

“Consumers are looking for reliable ways to move from point A to point B, and our plan is to take the service that we launched here in Vancouver earlier this spring and roll it out in Kamloops later this year,” Larson said in the email.

Kater currently operates according to regulations that govern the taxi industry and uses an app that is familiar to those who have hired ride-hailing services in other cities.

The company doesn’t yet know

how many drivers it will employ in Kamloops when it comes time to apply for a ride-hailing service.

“Exact numbers will depend on the number of licences we are granted by the Passenger Transportation Board,” Larson said.

The company is already looking to hire drivers across B.C. and welcomes any applicants in Kamloops, said Larson.

Kater drivers will be required to obtain a Class 4 licence, attend an in-person training course and face criminal record checks.

Regulations on licensing and insurance will go into effect beginning Sept. 16. The Passenger Transportation Board, which will take ride-hailing applications and decide who can operate, is working on policies around boundaries, fleet sizes and rates.

A beta version of the Kater app launched at the end of March.

The app is now widely available and the company has 35 cars that operate using taxi licences that were issued to the Vancouver Taxi Association, picking up passengers in Vancouver and dropping them where requested.

Kater pays the association an undisclosed percentage of its profits — believed to be around 20 per cent — for using the licences.

NATIONAL NEWS & GLOBAL VIEWS

HONG KONG: PURELY SYMBOLIC PROTESTS

T

he antigovernment demonstrations in Hong Kong are now eight weeks old and still going strong, but the level of violence is rising.

A lot of the violence can be blamed on the police and triad gangs, who were hired to attack the demonstrators, of course, but now the People’s Daily, the official mouthpiece of the Chinese Communist Party, is demanding the Hong Kong government “punish lawbreakers regardless of whether they hold up the banner of ‘freedom and democracy’.”

Nobody expects a replay of 1989’s Tiananmen Square massacre, but weekend after weekend the confrontation grows more tense. Last week China’s defence ministry even warned that it might use troops to quell the unrest, saying the protests were “intolerable” and that the army would mobilize troops to restore public order if requested by the Hong Kong government.

Yang Guang, spokesman for Beijing’s Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office, followed the paranoid official

GWYNNE DYER World

WATCH line on Monday, blaming “irresponsible people” in the West for stirring up trouble in a bid to “contain China’s development.” But when asked if Beijing would send troops in to stop the protests, he only repeated that the Hong Kong government could ask for help if it needed it.

This is a major crisis in the only part of mainland China that is not ruled directly by the Communist Party, but Beijing clearly does not want to go nuclear if it can avoid it.

It probably can because, at this point, the whole confrontation has become purely symbolic.

It started out in early June as a real struggle over an important issue. The Hong Kong government introduced a bill that would allow criminal suspects in Hong Kong to be extradited to China and

face trial in Communist Party-controlled mainland courts (which have a 99 per cent conviction rate). Everybody assumed it was acting on orders from Beijing.

The protesters were out in the streets at once. The rule of law still exists in Hong Kong, but nobody would be safe if they could be extradited to the People’s Republic at Beijing’s whim.

Hong Kong’s Chief Executive, Carrie Lam, backed down very quickly. She “suspended” the draft extradition bill and various people close to her reminded the media it would automatically die when the current session of the legislature ends next July. But she did not formally withdraw the bill, presumably because that would involve too grave a loss of face for the regime in Beijing.

Since then, the demonstrations have been purely symbolic.

The extradition bill is not going to happen, but the protesters want Lam to kill it officially and publicly.

Even if she complied, she could always bring it back in the next session of the legislature (whose members have to be approved

by Beijing). So, even if they win, they have no guarantees for the

future.

Why bother?

Hong Kong was not a democracy under British rule before 1997 and it is not one now.

But it was and still is a place where the rule of law prevails, the media are free, and individual rights are respected.

However, this special status within China, which was supposed to last for 50 years after the handover, has been under growing pressure from Beijing since the rise of President Xi Jinping.

Xi, who has abolished term limits on the presidency, is relentlessly centralizing power in China, presumably in the belief it is the only way to preserve Communist rule in the long run.

He has turned the heavily Muslim province of Xinjiang into an enormous open-air prison and he is building an online system of “social credit” that will score citizens on their degree of compliance with the regime’s goals and norms. People with low scores will have a hard time in life. And he is nibbling away at Hong Kong’s civil rights because they set a bad example for other Chinese.

The demonstrators in Hong Kong have carried on because they are trying to make a

Canada not consulted on U.S. plan to import prescription drugs KRISTY KIRKUP

CANADIAN PRESS

OTTAWA — Federal officials say Ottawa was not consulted in advance about the details of a Trump administration proposal, announced Wednesday and aimed at allowing American patients and consumers to legally import cheaper prescription drugs from Canada.

The office of Health Minister Ginette Petitpas Taylor said while it remains in regular contact with counterparts from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services about their “mutual interest’’ in fostering lower drug prices, details of the surprise announcement by Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar were not

discussed beforehand.

“While we’re aware of ongoing state-led initiatives to import Canadian drugs, we weren’t consulted on specifics,’’ the office said in a statement.

Azar said U.S. patients will be able to import medications safely and effectively with oversight from the Food and Drug Administration under a scheme that prompted many defenders of Canada’s drug supply to sound the alarm.

The plan amounts to nothing short of a “clear and present danger’’ to the health and wellbeing of Canadians who need prescription medications, said John Adams, volunteer chairman of the Best Medicines Coalition, a non-profit organization representing 28 national

patient organizations.

“This is really serious,’’ said Adams, who warned that the existing supply of drugs in Canada is not always sufficient to meet the current needs of Canadians, let alone a sudden surge in demand from south of the border.

The federal government may not be suitably equipped to protect the drug supply, he added, suggesting Parliament be recalled before the October election in order to establish a mechanism to ensure Canadians have ample access to the medications they need.

The American proposal would allow states, wholesalers and pharmacists to get FDA approval to import certain medications that are also available in the U.S.

point: that interfering with Hong Kong’s freedoms is more trouble than it’s worth.

So long as Hong Kong remains economically important to the People’s Republic, they have a chance of succeeding, but they can never expect a decisive victory.

Seven-and-a-half million people in Hong Kong are never going to force the Beijing regime

to do anything.

With the right tactics, however, they can probably preserve their own freedoms and continue to serve as living proof that an ethnic Chinese society does not have to be a tyranny.

It’s a balancing act.

They must never challenge the Communist regime’s ultimate control, but from time to time they

have to demonstrate to Beijing that tolerating a local aberration like civil rights in Hong Kong is less costly politically than ending it by force.

They have done enough to achieve that for now and it’s probably time to stop.

Sit. Stay. Search. to document trials of Kamloops rescue dogs SEAN BRADY STAFF REPORTER sbrady@kamloopsthisweek.com

A

local search and rescue volunteer, former journalist and filmmaker has embarked on a project that will tell the stories of three Kamloops search dogs who might one day be lifesavers.

Jennifer Stahn pitched the idea for her film Sit. Stay.

Search. as a Telus Storyhive project and this week got word she would be granted $50,000 to make her 20-minute documentary film a reality.

The film will focus on Kamloops Search and Rescue, which currently has two validated search dogs.

“Our volunteers are extremely dedicated and there’s a lot of training we do as general members, but the dog teams are a whole other game — they literally have to train with their dogs every single day,” she said.

Stahn hopes to give people an idea of how much training goes into these dogs to get them ready to search.

To do that, she plans on following three dogs and handlers all at different stages of the validation process — veteran dog Ranger and handler Mike Ritcey looking to renew validation, dog-in-training Ada

and handler Carole Capper looking to become validated and brand new puppy Taseko, who will be evaluated to see if he’s fit to become a rescue dog.

“Part of the reason we’ve decided to do it at this point in time is because this is the first time Kamloops Search and Rescue has had a dog at every stage in the process,” Stahn said.

She explained the process for search dogs to become validated is one that is truly life-long.

“It’s quite the process,” she said. “The puppy has to pass puppy assessment first to say, ‘Yes, we think this would make a good search dog.’ And then it can go through the actual search dog training and an examination process with the RCMP.” Stahn said the RCMP’s connection is because it is the agency that tasks out search dogs when they are needed, so the decision for which dogs are fit is ultimately theirs.

“They’re the ones who say when a dog has reached the point it needs to be at to be on a task,” she said.

Stahn found a passion for search and rescue after her time as a journalist in the city. Shortly after she left that

LEARN BATIK AT KAMLOOPS ART GALLERY Learn/A27

career behind, she became a KSAR volunteer.

“Search and rescue was one of those things that always stuck with me. It was one of those topics that, if it comes up, I’m covering it. Search and rescue was my thing,” she said.

Joining her in her filmmaking venture is Kamloops filmmaker Vesta Giles, who will serve as the film’s director, and husband and fellow KSAR volunteer Anthony Stahn, as producer.

Even though pre-production is already underway and some footage has already been shot, the team is still working out other contributors for the film — including its music.

“Our big wildcard right now is figuring out music. There’s so much local talent with music here, but we’re not quite sure what sound we’re looking for just yet,” Stahn said.

It’s not just the music that will be local. This year, Storyhive has made it a requirement for 75 per cent of the film’s budget to be spent in the community — and the same goes for where the documentary must be filmed.

Stahn said the deadline for her to submit the film to Storyhive is June 1, 2020, and she expects the film to be out in the weeks that follow.

Learn Batik technique at KAG Learn the wax-resist dyeing technique on Saturday SEAN BRADY STAFF REPORTER sbrady@kamloopsthisweek.com

A

s a young Filipino folk dancer, Batik cloth was always part of Rose Cortez’ wardrobe in her native Philippines.

But despite her creative inclinations, the dyed fabric wasn’t something she learned how to make until after she immigrated to Canada at age 13.

It was all thanks to her Grade 8 teacher Mr. Kennedy.

At a Canadian Martyrs elementary school classroom in Ontario, Cortez created Mother and Child, a piece that is now part of an ongoing exhibit at the Kamloops Art Gallery.

Batik is an ancient wax-resist dyeing technique that emerged

in Asia around the year 500. It stll carries cultural significance in a number of practices in the region.

“You dip your brush into your wax and place it on the canvas — wherever you place that wax, there will be a space that will resist the dye,” Cortez told KTW. Her work is part on display as part of Generations Under the Sun, a 16-artist exhibit that runs until Aug. 17 at the Kamloops Art Gallery.

Cortez, a Filipino-Canadian artist and yoga instructor with a background in theatre and dance, also created Life is a Stage, an installation backlight by four lightbulbs.

“I created Life is a Stage because I believe there is always

an idea — a magic moment that starts up right in front of you,” she said.

Kamloops residents will soon have a chance to create some Batik artwork themselves, with Cortez as host for an introductory workshop.

Batik, Budol and Brew is a collaboration between the art gallery, Red Beard Cafe, Jamaican Kitchen, Asian Fiesta Mart and Iron Road Brewing. It will take place from 1:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. at the Kamloops Art Gallery.

The workshop portion of the event will run for one hour beginning at 2:30 p.m.

Pre-registration for the event, which costs $20, can be done at the Kamloops Art Gallery, 465 Victoria St.

Beware the woke-washers W

ith July just passing, critics of advertisers and corporations have brought attention to a trend called “wokewashing,” where a business will latch itself onto social movements, not for the sake of helping that movement, but for increasing its profits.

June, being Pride Month, saw brands like Listerine, Starbucks and Calvin Klein putting a rainbow on their brands and calling themselves advocates of Pride. Some proceeds went towards LGBTQ organizations, but the ultimate goal was to sell products.

This isn’t a new idea.

Brands have been going “green” for years, saying their products are environmentally responsible.

There are no regulations around the meaning of the word “green” on a product — a “green” product could be just as environmentally damaging as one without that label, but purchasing a “green” product makes the consumer feel better about helping the planet, even if the product does nothing to do so.

The cynical practice of piggybacking on social movements in advertising doesn’t help the movement, but rather under-

RADIO EDIT

mines it. Making an important social statement like supporting LGBTQ rights, or racial equality, or environmentalism, and attaching profit to it, diminishes the need for real change to happen and hampers the movement with crass capitalism.

The importance of authentic voices in media can’t be understated. People who are marginalized in society need to see people who are like them in their media to realize that they are not alone, and they are normal. From the other direction, those in the dominant culture need to see and hear people from marginalized populations to know

that there is nothing to fear from those different than them and that difference does not diminish their own experiences and rights.

Rap-country star Lil Nas X’s Old Town Road has spent seventeen straight weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles charts, which is a record. In June, Lil Nas X came out as gay, which caused a huge backlash in from the hip-hop and country communities, including death threats and promises of boycotts.

Billboard Magazine and the Hollywood Reporter are holding a Pride Summit on Aug. 8 to address ongoing homophobia in the music industry and to allow Pride-related artists to talk about their experiences.

Justin Tranter, a queer activist and songwriter with the band Semi-Precious Weapons has spoken out against “woke-washing,” stressing the importance of allies to actually support Pride movements rather than selling a product and simply saying they are allies.

Holmes Is WHere THe

When I was a teen in the mid-1980, I watched the movie Cocoon, which starred Wilford Brimley.

He played an elderly man at a rest home where all the residents were rejuvenated by aliens — but that wasn’t the incomprehensible part of the movie.

Most shocking was the fact Brimley was 49 when he starred in the film.

Can you imagine what Brimley must have felt like when director Ron Howard called him up and said, “Hey Wilford, since you look 80, how would you like to be in one of my upcoming films?”

Years later, Wilford Brimley now looks his actual age. He is now 84.

If there’s one thing in the matchmaking business I find the most frustrating, it’s when someone tells me how old they want their match to be. It may sound clichéd to say age is just a number, but it truly is.

Of course, the exception would be if I am working for a 40-year-old man who wants a family and kids of his own. Obviously, I would be trying tp match him with a woman who also wants children and who is of childbearing age. However, once

that phase of life is over, I can’t stress enough that age has nothing to do with the health, vibrancy and youthfulness of someone.

I have had both men and women in their 60s tell me they want their match to be in their 50s. These people don’t realize they could be missing out on perfect matches just a bit older than them. I also know for a fact that many people who want someone younger would not be able to keep up even with the older people I know.

Why would someone want a partner who is far younger if they themselves are not fit and active? I have matched many couples who are the same age and

y $58.00 per couple!

or dinner while overlooking st view in Kamloops!

I have matched some who are 10 or 15 years apart. I match based on physical, mental and personality matches. I match based on similar goals, hopes and dreams.

Not all couples are going to match equally on fitness levels. My husband and I love skiing and trail running, but we don’t do them together. He is all caught up in the Strava social fitness network and his heart rate, whereas I prefer to go with my friends and talk about life.

I am one year older than my husband. I know some women who are 10 years older than their husbands — and vice versa — but in the big picture, who really cares? What matters is chemistry, compatibility and attraction.

None of that has to do with age.

People who don’t smoke, avoid the sun, eat healthy meals, exercise, drink water and get enough sleep can have skin that looks 20 years younger than their actual age. Then there are people who have smoked for years and worship the sun — and they can look two decades older than what appears on

Is

their birth certificates. Then there are some people who tend to wrinkle early and others who are blessed with great genes.

Not all couples are going to age well together equally.

Again, who cares?

Traditionally, the general rule when it comes to appropriate age gaps in dating is to find someone within one-fifth of your age. Based on that, a 60-year-old would have a 12-year margin (between 48 and 72 years of age).

I am not a fan of guidelines. It’s about being equal physically and in personality. Besides, women outlive men. There are 2,000 more single women in Kamloops than there are single men.

Before guys get your hopes up, they should know these ladies must have been rejuvenated by aliens. They golf, hike, swim, travel and volunteer.

If only Wilford Brimley were single. But he is not.

His wife is 15 years younger than him.

If you are happy, single and ready to share your life with a partner on an equal playing field, contact me by email at holmes@wheretheheartis.ca.

CALL FOR PHOTOS FOR THE 2020 CITY CALENDAR! Residents of all skill levels and ages are invited to submit their digital photos for a chance to be featured in the City of Kamloops Annual Calendar. This year, the City is looking for YOUR image that you think best embodies Kamloops while representing one of the following terms:

Community | Recreation | Arts & Culture | Nature CONDITIONS • Photos must have been taken and owned by the participant.

• A maximum of three (3) photos per participant can be submitted in digital format.

• Photos of people require a model release.

The Imbalance of the Circle, by artist Shay Paul, was featured at last year’s Indigenous Resurgence Exhibition.

Pictured at the event, from left, are Maria Moutsos, Shay Paul, Bill Paul and Rev. Bruce Comrie, now retired.

Indigenous art show inbound TODD SULLIVAN STAFF REPORTER todd@kamloopsthisweek.com

T

he Indigenous Resurgence Exhibition is about to open its doors for its second year, but it has already nearly grown beyond its founder and event director, Shay Paul.

“Last year, it was much smaller,” said Paul, who developed the exhibition as an extension of a high school project.

This year’s show will feature a half-dozen artists and a fashion show, which should draw even more interest than last year’s event.

The Indigenous Resurgence Exhibition will take place on is taking place on Saturday, Aug. 10, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Kamloops United Church, downtown at St. Paul Street and Fourth Avenue.

The event, which is free to attend and open to the public,

will take place two blocks from the Kamloops Farmers’ Market, so it’s easy for people to take in both events.

And, Paul said, the exhibition is for everyone.

“The Indigenous art exhibition is kind of my way of putting an event together where not only can we put local Indigenous artists out on a platform where they can share their work and stories, but it also helps to engage the public more in Indigenous history,” she said.

Paul said her goal is to create a backdrop for the discussion of reconciliation in a way that isn’t restricted to talking about the past, but focuses on more positive issues, such as the resurgence of Indigenous culture.

Paul described the event as a pop-up exhibition that will highlight work in a variety of mediums.

The fashion show will feature clothing from local design-

er Ashley Nicole Michelle and Alicia Stephens of Burnaby.

Kim Coltman has helped to organize the models and the designers for the fashion show.

“I’m not very well versed with fashion, so she’s stepped in and helped me there,” Paul said.

The exhibition is already booked to take place at the Kamloops United Church in 2020, when Paul hopes to introduce workshops to the event, allowing people to get more hands-on with Indigenous artwork.

“I think it would be interesting for the public to be a part of that,” she said.

Paul praised the church for its support of the exhibition.

“I’m so thankful for them because they’re so supportive of what I’m doing,” she said.

“They’re there and they’re so supportive of this whole project.”

• A total of 13 photos will be selected from the submissions for use in the 2020 annual calendar.

• Participants grant reproduction rights and permissions to the City of Kamloops to use their photo for other City promotional initiatives including, but not limited to, print and online ads, publications, the City’s website, etc.

Telefilm: Bigger budgets for female directors CANADIAN PRESS

MONTREAL — Telefilm Canada says it’s made progress in its efforts to back female-led films, but it needs the entertainment industry to help by putting more women in the director’s chair for big-budget features.

Numbers released Thursday suggest the federal agency is making headway towards its goal of achieving gender parity in key film roles by 2020.

Telefilm says 59 per cent of its production funding went to projects featuring at least one woman as a lead producer, director or writer in the last fiscal year.

The Crown corporation says it saw greatest gains among projects with female producers, reaching

near parity in investments across its portfolio.

But Telefilm says it spent only 28 per cent of its funding on films directed by women and 36 per cent on female-scripted titles.

This gender gap was most pronounced in films that cost more than $2.5 million. In that category, roughly a quarter of projects were directed by women and 35 per cent had female screenwriters.

By contrast, more than half of documentaries were by female directors and 83 per cent had a female producer.

Telefilm’s executive director Christa Dickenson said the agency is doing its part to elevate up-andcoming female talent.

For example, in a program designed for first-time filmmak-

ers, women made up 43 per cent of directors, 45 per cent of writers and 68 per cent producers.

While men continue to dominate large-budget projects, Dickenson said Telefilm has made strides to reverse this global trend since launching the gender-parity initiative in 2017.

She pointed to projects such as Monia Chokri’s La femme de mon frere (A Brother’s Love), which premiered at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, and Miranda de Pencier’s The Grizzlies as evidence of what female directors can achieve when given the chance.

“I think it’s about getting more and more female directors in the pipeline,” said Dickenson. “Having those success stories will bring further success stories.”

arts&entertainment Stump becomes a work of art thanks to efforts of local carver

Rose Vickers’ yard now home to artwork that is all that remains of a tree her husband planted TODD SULLIVAN STAFF REPORTER todd@kamloopsthisweek.com

A

new Dawn has risen in North Kamloops, thanks to artist and carver Vaughn Warren — specifically a stump carving at 131 Don St., called Dawn Dancer.

The property belongs to Rose Vickers and the carving replaces what had been a massive tree in her yard, a tree of which Vickers was never terribly fond.

“My husband planted it 40-odd years ago,” Vickers said.

“I always hated that tree. I said to him one day, ‘If you die before me, the first thing going is that tree.’”

Vickers stayed true to her word. Her husband died and she recently had the majority of the tree cut down, but chose to save a portion of the stump because she wanted something done with it.

After reaching out on social media, looking for recommendations for wood carvers, she came across the work of Vaughn Warren, who is perhaps best known for the River Pole sculpture at the corner of Columbia

Vaughn Warren with his work, Dawn Dancer.

Street and Summit Drive in Sahali and for the carved Kamloops logo in the foyer of the Tournament Capital Centre.

“I showed her a drawing, she thought it looked good, so away we went,” Warren said.

Dawn Dancer is sort of a companion piece to another carving, Wind Dancer, that Warren recently completed at 179 Connaught Rd. Rather than simply carving on the surface of the stump, as he has in the past, the recent works came from a different type of design, carvings that spiral around, along the shape of the tree.

Vaughn said more and more

people have been reaching out to him for work of this kind, noting it is a unique way to add artwork to a property.

“It’s a beautiful way to decorate the yard, so I’m excited to be involved with that,” he said.

Warren has been carving for 25 years, starting with bone before expanding to include wood.

Most of his bone carving is done with mammoth ivory that is between 5,000 to 10,000 years old, primarily carved into neckwear.

The work is available on his Facebook page, VaughnWarrenArtist or online at vaughnwarren.com.

TRAVERSING THE PRIDE LANDS OF AFRICA MARGARET DEEFHOLTS

SPECIAL TO KTW

travelwriterstales.com

I

have a balcony seat at a spellbinding show.

The stage is a gigantic mud hole, surrounded by thick African jungle, and the performers have been front and centre for the last hour.

The first to emerge from the wings is a herd of Cape Buffalo.

The buffalo appear as amiable as their domestic kin, but are one of Africa’s most unpredictable and dangerous animals.

Next, a wart hog makes his appearance. With his elongated snout and enormous curved tusks, he looks like an accident of nature and perhaps he is — his awkward torso necessitates going down on his front knees to snack on grass. He roots around, lifts his head and, sensing danger, takes off in a rush, tail held vertical — a comical exit.

The next performer is a handsome male waterbuck with ringed horns, accompanied by his family. The females and babies graze placidly until a male elephant strides into the clearing, causing a flurry of hasty departures.

Here is one of the Big Five animals I’ve been eagerly waiting to see — and they arrive in tribal numbers. More than 20 big mamas with their baby elephants cluster around the mud hole.

Two little chaps, perhaps four to six months old, meander off and a teenage Jumbo mischievously sprays them with water.

The mother of one of the little guys flaps her ears at the tormentor and he settles down to grubbing in the soil instead of teasing his juniors.

The night is closing in and the temperature has dropped considerably. We are 7,200 feet above sea level here on Mount Kenya and I seek the warmth of my room.

MARGARET DEEFHOLTS PHOTOS

At night, I wake to anguished screams, but there’s nothing to be seen in the gloom beyond my balcony.

Later, we learn a cheetah had made short work of a jackal.

Our driver-guide steers our Land Rover through rolling grassland, picking his way between thorn trees and palm trees with odd shaped Y-branches.

Around a bend, giraffes wiggle their ears at us before resuming their breakfast of acacia leaves.

A little later, a barrel-bodied zebra ambles in front of our vehicle: “African bush “zebracrossing!” quips one of our group.

The radio-phone crackles into

excited bursts of Swahili and our driver-guide hastily heads across the savannah and edges us through a cluster of vehicles.

Showtime.

A leopard sits sprawled across a tree trunk. Languid and aloof, head held high, she sets the cameras rolling. Her expression says: “I’m ready for my close-up, Mr. DeMille.”

The days are breathless with activity. A mother cheetah teaches her three cubs to hunt as we look on. Another lone cheetah feasts on her kill — an antelope.

This is high drama.

She is ringed by vultures as they keep tightening their circle, their murderously sharp talons

and beaks just inches away from the carcass. She raises her head and they hastily leap back, but not for long.

Eventually, she gives up and walks away. Fur and feathers fly as the birds fight over the remains of the animal.

Yes, we see him too: the Lion King in all his male glory, sitting atop a rocky outcrop, surveying his territory. He is one of only two males we stumble upon, but we do sight several lionesses.

her tawny eyes are so intent on her prey, she ignores us entirely.

A group of monkeys sets off warning calls and the bushbucks speed away at full gallop. You can almost see the lioness shrug resignedly as she turns and disappears into a thicket of bushes.

This is the season of the wildebeest migration and, from a high vantage point, thousands of animals freckle the Serengeti plains.

They are dim-witted creatures and we pause to watch them attempt a river crossing.

The bank is steep and the group makes it down a little way; then the leader gets spooked, turns tail and scrambles up the bank. The lot of them panic and follow suit.

Eventually, one brave (or excessively stupid) wildebeest reaches the crocodile-infested water and begins to swim across — emboldened by this, the entire herd thunders down the embarkment to make it safely to the other side.

The Serengeti’s moods change with every passing hour — hazy and mysterious at sunrise when we take off on safari; shimmering under a heat haze by mid-day.

As we head back to our camp each evening, the tropical sunsets are a spectacular blaze of gold, scarlet and purple.

The dusk deepens as Africa draws her diamante-studded cloak of night across the land.

RiverDogs to welcome best in B.C. Zak Sanderson may not have connected perfectly on this almighty cut, but he still ended up on first base after the ball died on home plate last weekend on McArthur Island.

MARTY HASTINGS

STAFF REPORTER

sports@kamloopsthisweek.com

They are barrelling into their version of the World Series, the end of the line for this season, the provincial championships.

It’s a shot at glory this weekend on home soil.

The mosquito (10-and-under) Kamloops RiverDogs, host team for the B.C. Minor Baseball Association Championships in their age group, put the cleats to Kelowna in the zone final last weekend, the Dogs rendering their host berth for provincials unnecessary by sweeping their foes from the Little Apple.

“It meant that we could play strong and have good heart to try and win,” said AJ Baird, one of 12 RiverDogs who cracked the mosquito selects team for the brief, one-month campaign that culminates this weekend on McArthur Island.

“Well, we’re a good group of kids. We have good hitters, good pitchers, good defence and we have a really good offence, too.”

They might be well-rounded, good at pretty much everything, as Baird puts it, but they will still be underdogs at provincials, the 10-team tournament featuring powerhouse A Division squads from the Coast.

Kamloops is slated to play four

ALLEN DOUGLAS/KTW

round-robin games — two on Friday, 8:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. starts against Abbotsford and Chilliwack, respectively, and a pair on Saturday, 8:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. starts versus Prince George and Ridge Meadows, respectively.

Head coach Earl Corsi spoke to KTW on Tuesday while his team warmed up before practice, the evening muggy and air thick.

Maybe it was just heavy

with expectations.

“Any time you go into provincial championships, I don’t care what age you’re at, it’s a pretty big opportunity and the kids really take a lot of memories out of it, regardless of results,” said Corsi, noting his 13-year-old son, Ryder, still has keepsakes from mosquito provincials on display in his room.

“I just love this age group. Geez, this is my 20th year of coaching in

baseball. They’re kind of like really mouldable kids, super keen. They listen well. That’s what I enjoy most, just the fun they have with baseball, but how much they work and really want to learn and get better.”

So, who throws the fastest?

“Probably Jacob,” said Tristan Lindaas. “His movement when he’s on the mound, he has really good accuracy and he has thrown 50 miles per hour.”

And who can really mash the ball?

“Probably Jacob,” Lindaas said.

AJ Baird might put it like this: Jacob Petrie is, well, good — really good.

The long-locked, menacing ace threw a complete game earlier this season, a rarity in the age group, with hurlers usually limited by pitch counts and exiting contests about halfway through the sixinning games.

Petrie and the rest of the pitchers will be looking for run support.

Lindaas appears up to the challenge.

“I’m looking forward to driving the ball,” he said. “I’ve been hitting the ball pretty good lately, so

I’m looking forward to that.”

Zak Sanderson, Eli Robertson, Sawyer Corsi, Kaylen Tozer, Asher Warr, Jordan Cook, Dayton Hansen, Nash Szasz and Evan McLean round out the roster.

“It means a lot to us. We really wanted to be in provincials,” Lindaas said.

Nestor Baird and Barry Warr are assistant coaches.

Tryouts were held following a two-month recreational league season. The squad had about 30 days to prepare for the B.C. championships, playing exhibition and league games in the Interior, Okanagan and on the Coast.

“You’re bringing them together,” said coach Corsi, whose charges compiled an 8-8 record.

“It’s building that team, getting these kids to come together and play as a 12-kid unit. That’s the biggest challenge in a short period of time.

“It’s been tremendous. You get a lot of the best kids in the division and they elevate each others’ play.

They have that consistent coaching program and they advance very quickly.”

Now, they measure up against the best in B.C. “Chances of winning? It’s not 100 per cent,” Baird said. “It’s not fully 100 per cent. But we can have a good chance.

“We can beat all these teams if we play 100 per cent.”

What are the most memorable bloopers of the season?

I dove for the ball and missed it and that was the day I forgot to wear my cup, so that hurt.”

Classics in Cowtown MARTY HASTINGS

STAFF REPORTER

sports@kamloopsthisweek.com

The Kamloops Classic Swimming club kept busy in Calgary at the Canadian Junior Swimming Championships and Canadian Junior Open Water Swimming Championships, both of which wrapped up on Monday.

Three local swimmers — Diego Paz, Jack Cameron and Haley Rowden — were in action at junior nationals at the Repsol Sports Centre.

Paz, competing in the 14- and 15-year-old boys’ division, placed fourth in the 400-metre individual medley, sixth in the 200m IM and seventh in the 800m and 1,500m freestyle events. He was fourth in the consolation final of the 200m fly and 17th in the 400m freestyle.

Cameron, swimming in the same division as Paz, finished fourth in the 50m freestyle, seventh in the 200m fly, eighth in the 100m fly, fourth in the consolation final of the 100m freestyle, 17th in the

800m freestyle and 18th in the 400m freestyle.

“It looks very positive for them,” Classics’ head coach Brad Dalke said. “That’s why we took them to that particular meet, because they have chances of getting junior national team carding.

“That’s why they had so many events and swam finals.”

Rowden placed seventh in the consolation final of the 200m breaststroke and 34th in the 100m breaststroke in the 15-and-over girls’ category.

Paz and Cameron, both 15, competed in the 14- and 15-year-old boys’ division in the 1,500m race at the open water championships.

Paz placed ninth, with a time of 19:33.60, and Cameron posted a time of 19:35.80 to place 12th.

“Swim Canada is making a real big push right now for open water swimming,”

Dalke said. “Our kids have actually been identified for some swim camps because of our distance background, but before I was prepared to let them go, or even say, yeah, we’re interested, they had to do a couple of open water races first.”

Ryley McRae is one reason why Dalke and the Classics have been learning more about open-water swimming training.

The longtime Classic has swam for Canada in multiple overseas international events.

McRae will return to indoor action for the Canadian Swimming Championships, which run from Aug. 8 to Aug. 11 in Winnipeg.

Dalke said the Thompson Rivers University student will compete in four freestyle events — the 200m, 400m, 800m and 1,500m — and the 200m fly at nationals.

Quarterback Nica takes Broncos’ reins BCFC KICKOFF GAME #1

MARTY HASTINGS

STAFF REPORTER

sports@kamloopsthisweek.com

Nick Nica is finally getting his chance to be a starting quarterback in the Canadian Junior Football League.

The Kamloops Broncos have handed the third-year pivot the reins ahead of their Week 1 tilt against the Okanagan Sun on Saturday at the Apple Bowl in Kelowna.

Kickoff is slated for 7 p.m.

Nica, a Langley product who last year backed up Huskers’ No. 1 pivot Julian Wytinck, has swapped teams with QB Reid Vankoughnett, the former Bronco who is jostling for the No. 1 gig in Chilliwack.

“I got my release from Chilliwack and wanted to play for Langley,” Nica said. “At spring camp, it just didn’t mesh. It’s my third year, so I figured I’d go to a place where you can start and try to go to university. My buddy texted me and said — so you want to come to Kamloops spring camp?”

Nica, who stands 6-foot-4, joins an offensive group that, like much of the roster and staff, is building from the ground up.

Broncos’ offensive co-ordinator Jeremy White plans to strip down the playbook this year for what he

called a true rebuilding season, noting recent high school graduates will benefit from simplification.

“It’s a little more manageable for our players,” White said. “They

come to the CFJL and it’s bigger, faster, stronger.”

The Broncos have two wild cards in the backfield, Zimbabwean brothers Kuda and Darlington Murasiranwa, unprov-

en football players who have elite athletic talent.

Kuda, a 21-year-old speedster who ran track last season for the University of Guelph Gryphons, is pegged to be the starting running back this weekend. Darlington, who graduated this spring from Westsyde secondary, was late to join the Broncos this year, but is expected to get reps in Kelowna.

“Our starting five is absolutely insane. I told the guys at the beginning of camp — you guys are all all-stars,” Nica said. “There is so much potential on this team.

It can only go up.”

Darlington is expected to play soccer for Guelph in 2019-2020.

Kuda won bronze in the 60-metre dash at U Sports nationals in March, posting a time of 6.84 seconds. American runner Christian Coleman holds the world record in the event — 6.34 seconds.

“He is probably one of the more dynamic players we’ve ever had,” Broncos’ running backs coach Brad Yamaoka said of Kuda.

“I haven’t had a chance to see him play yet, so we’ll see after this first game how he can perform under pressure.

“But, on all accounts, he’s looked really good at camp and practice.”

The Broncos’ home opener is slated for Saturday, Aug. 10, when the Langley Rams come to town.

Game time is 6 p.m. at Hillside Stadium.

This weekend’s curtain raiser in Kelowna promises to reveal where the Broncos and their new QB stand at this early juncture.

“In Langley, I was stressed because it was my hometown team. I came here really relaxed and played football,” Nica said.

“Our offence is looking really good.”

Canadian tennis stars in slump STEPHANIE MYLES

THE CANADIAN PRESS

WASHINGTON — With the eye-catching results from the tennis teens at big tournaments in Indian Wells, Calif., and Miami back in March, fans were hoping — almost expecting — that a Canadian dynasty had been officially launched.

But four months later, that bullet train to the top of the game has stalled a little.

And so there are more questions than answers as a large contingent of Canadian players prepares for next week’s Rogers Cup. The women are in Toronto and the men in Montreal this year.

Bianca Andreescu vaulted into the top 25 with a title at Indian Wells and a fourthround effort at the Miami Open.

But since then, the 19-year-old Mississauga, Ont., native has played just one match — a firstround victory at the French Open in May before she withdrew because of a shoulder injury that first surfaced on her way to the Indian Wells title.

While Andreescu still plans to play her hometown tournament, the shoulder has not been subjected to lengthy practices or repetitions needed to properly prepare.

Meanwhile, Eugenie Bouchard of Westmount, Que.,

BEINSPORTS.COM PHOTO Eugenie Bouchard fell out of the World Tennis Association Tour top 10 nearly two weeks ago.

won just three games in a first-round loss to American Lauren Davis at the Citi Open this week.

The former world No. 5 fell out of the WTA Tour’s top 100 nearly two weeks ago.

She has won just two matches at the WTA Tour level in 2019; the last victory came in Dubai in mid-February.

On the men’s side, Denis Shapovalov will return to Montreal, which in 2017 was the launching pad for his rise to the top of the game as he stunned Rafael Nadal.

Two years on, he’s officially struggling.

Shapovalov, who turned 20 in April, hit his career-high ranking of No. 20 after that

Miami Open semifinal in March.

But he went 2-9 during the European clay and grass seasons. The Richmond Hill, Ont., native hasn’t won a match in 2 1/2 months and withdrew from this week’s Citi Open.

“Listen, Denis is 20, I’m almost 19, Bianca is 19. If everything goes well, knock on wood, we’re probably going to have a lot of years on tour and we’ll share some great moments with the fans. So I’d tell the fans to be patient, just as we have to be,’’ said Montreal’s Felix Auger-Aliassime, who also advanced to the Miami semis and will play his hometown event for the first time next week.

“Just like the fans, we want to be top 10, we want to be No. 1.

But it takes work, it takes time. So I think we all have to stay calm, keep a cool head.’’

Perennial top-10 star Milos Raonic of Thornhill, Ont., struggled with back pain during the spring, even if he did post some very good victories. It was just the latest in a litany of physical woes the 28-year-old has had to deal with over the last few years.

While Raonic has been able to maintain his ranking in the top 20, he hasn’t been healthy enough, for long enough, to get back to his best.

Raonic says he’s getting there — and he believes having three Canadian men in the top 10 remains a reachable goal.

But Raonic, too, preaches patience.

“To be in the top 10 you have to kick out a few people. Who are you going to push out and what are their results? With myself,

Felix and Denis, that would mean there are only seven spots for all the other people — around the world.

That’s a hard thing to do,’’ Raonic said. “It’s definitely doable, but it’s not one of those things that happens quickly.’’

The fourth Canadian member of the top ATP Tour’s top 100 is Brayden Schnur.

Armed with a wild card, the 24-year-old Pickering, Ont. native, now living in Montreal, will look to post his first career Rogers Cup singles win in his adopted hometown next week.

“You have to realize that this is a once-ina-lifetime generation, to have two stars like Felix and Denis on the come-up,’’ Schnur said.

“But they’re so young. We can all see the guys who are winning right now — the Djokovics and Federers and Nadals. There is going to come a time when the younger guys step in and start beating the top guys. But it’s tennis, it’s a process. It’s a long one.’’

Who ya gonna call?”

Most will recognize that snippet of song from the popular Ghostbusters movie.

The concept of ghosts, spirits of those once living, is prevalent throughout recorded history.

Even today there are plenty of reality television shows exploring the existence of ghosts, poltergeists and other haunting spectres.

Many people don’t believe there are such things as ghosts, however, and think those who do hold such beliefs are naïvely superstitious or selfdeluded.

Others are firmly convinced ghosts exist and a few even have personal stories to tell about such encounters.

But what does the Bible have to say about ghosts?

Before we get into some specific examples, it may be useful to delve into exactly what we are talking about.

The concept of “ghost” implies there is a spiritual existence that is distinct from our physical one that survives the death of the body.

In the Genesis creation story, God says, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness…”

When we say a child is the “spitting image” of one parent or the other, we are generally referring to physical characteristics such as eye colour, the shape of the nose, a square jaw or curly hair.

But sometimes when we say a child is

CHRIS KEMPLING

You Gotta Have

FAITH

“just like” a parent, we aren’t really referring to something physical.

We mean their nonphysical attributes are very similar — such as determination, intelligence, shyness, a quick temper, stubbornness or tender-heartedness.

I don’t think the phrase from Genesis refers to physical characteristics. Rather, “in our image” refers to the spiritual element of the Godhead.

There is an element to our existence that transcends time and space — our soul.

It is this that is made in God’s image.

The spirit is simply the “housing” of the soul, one that gives us our individual identity in the afterlife.

It is this spirit that we call a “ghost” when it is not an integral part of a physical body.

There is considerable anecdotal evidence from people who have “died” on the operating table.

They describe details of things that occurred in that hospital room they have no earthly way of knowing. We have a spiritual component to our existence.

God recognizes our spiritual existence before we are born.

In the Book of

Jeremiah, God says to Jeremiah, “Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you.”

How did God “know” Jeremiah prior to his physical existence? The only logical answer is that Jeremiah’s spiritual existence pre-dated his physical one.

Frankly, I think this fact is a reason why our short physical existence on earth, often with much physical suffering or premature death, is not as important as we all want it to be.

What is important is our spiritual existence.

That is why God sent Jesus and all the other prophets and messengers of God to teach us how vital it is to care for our souls, our spiritual self — because it is that which will last forever.

There are several instances of “ghosts” in scripture. Certainly, the disciples believed in ghosts.

When Jesus came walking on the water to join the disciples in their boat, they were petrified with fear, thinking they were seeing a ghost.

When Jesus appeared to the disciples after his crucifixion and death, Luke reports that they were “frightened, thinking they saw a ghost.”

Jesus reassured them, however, saying, “Touch me and see: a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.”

In the Old Testament Book of 1 Samuel, King Saul is desperate for divine direction in his war with the Philistines.

But God wouldn’t answer him, so he

decided to consult a medium, the witch of Endor. At Saul’s direction, the witch summons the spirit of Samuel, the prophet of God who had recently died. Samuel asks, “Why have you disturbed me by bringing me up?”

The ghost of Samuel simply reiterates to Saul what he said when he was alive — that the kingdom of Israel was to be given to his rival David.

Not only that, Saul and his sons were going to be killed in battle the very next day.

The other prominent “ghostly” example is in the New Testament.

Jesus is with Peter, James and John on the Mount of Transfiguration. The spirits of Elijah and Moses appeared and were speaking with Jesus.

This passage implies the spirits of those who have died have a continual identifiable existence, can communicate and can be called into the present from their spiritual home.

This home, reserved for the faithful, is what Jesus called Paradise.

“Ghost” is simply our colloquial term for our spiritual selves.

But we all need to take care that our ghosts end up in Paradise.

Boat sober this B.C. Day long weekend KAMLOOPS THIS WEEK

Impairment on the water is a leading contributing factor in recreational boating accidents, with alcohol contributing to approximately 40 per cent of boatingrelated fatalities on Canadian waterways.

With legalization of recre-

ational cannabis, the Canadian Safe Boating Council (CSBC) is focused on educating Canadians about the dangers of boating high and is year seven of Operation Dry Water.

With the summer boating season in high gear, the CSBC is using the B.C. Day long weekend as a good time to remind

Canadian boaters about the need to boat sober. Combined with sun, wind, waves and the rocking motion of the boat, the effects of intoxicants on the water can be greatly increased.

Operation Dry Water will focus on the potential risks of impaired boating and remedies that are currently in place to discourage it.

Pamela “Vashti” Fisk July 16, 1933 - April 21, 2019 Pamela “Vashti” Fisk passed away on Sunday, April 21, 2019, at the age of 85 in the caring community at Kamloops Seniors Village.

Vashti was born on July 16, 1933, at Kamloops General Hospital to “Deede” Gwenlyn Mary Parker (Cornwall) and John Allan Parker. She was raised at Ashcroft Manor with her sister Margot and brother Trevor. Vashti went on to become a Registered Nurse and graduated from Vancouver General Hospital in 1956. Immediately after graduation, she was finally able to marry the love of her life, Travers C. Fisk. They travelled around BC for the first 2-years of their marriage, then chose to settle back at Ashcroft Manor and raised their 4 children, Linda, Barry, Doug, and Ryan.

Following in the footsteps of her ancestors, Vashti ran the Ashcroft Manor as a motel, raised her children, worked in the Ashcroft Hospital, and, in later years, taught Home Support.

Horses were her passion, it is unknown how many people she taught how to ride and share in her love of horses.

Vashti will be missed by so many, she touched many lives and will be remembered lovingly.

She was predeceased by her husband, Travers in April 2017 and her brother, Trevor in February 2018.

Surviving is her sister Margot Landels, 4 children,11 grandchildren, and 5 great-grandchildren.

Vashti’s Celebration of Life will be held at 2:00 pm on August 17, 2019, at Kamloops Seniors Village, 1220 Hugh Allan Drive, Kamloops, BC.

We regret to announce the passing of longtime Kamloops resident Andrew Poston Veach on July 31, 2019.

Andrew is survived by his loving and devoted wife Faye, his son Roger (Bev), step-daughter Catherine and son-in-law Tom. Also left to cherish his memory are grandchildren Krystal (Jeff), Sara (Jason), William (Susan) and Matthew as well as four great-grandchildren Cole, Kayden, Madyson, and Alexander. Andrew was predeceased by his first wife Lois, his step-daughter Diane and his grandson Darren. Andrew will also be remembered by family members that came into his life when he married Faye in 2005.

Born in Salmon Arm on December 3, 1933, Andrew had many happy memories growing up with members of his immediate and extended family. We all have fond memories of his strong work ethic, his willingness to lend a hand whenever needed and his passion for gardening. Tomatoes anyone?

In keeping with Andrew’s wishes, his remains will be interred at Hillside Cemetery along with the ashes of his late wife Lois. A brief Graveside Service will take place at 12:30 pm on Saturday, August 3, 2019 followed by an informal reception at Chartwell Retirement Residence from 1:30 pm to 3:00 pm.

The family is very grateful for the care that was provided over the last three years by the staff at Pine Grove Care Home and previously by the staff at Chartwell Retirement Residence.

In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the Parkinson’s Society of BC or to The Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada.

Guerino was born in Aiello Calabro, Cosenza, Italy on April 12, 1925 to Pietro and Anna Caputo. He immigrated to Canada in 1951 and was initially employed by the R.F. Welch Company. He worked at various jobs and in 1963 Guerino returned to Italy where he met and married Carolina and together they returned to Canada, settling in Kamloops. Guerino had a strong sense of responsibility towards their family in Italy and was instrumental in the immigration of family members to Kamloops.

After his retirement from Tolko Forest Products in 1978, he enjoyed working in his garden, going for daily walks, shopping and visiting with family and friends. In recent years, he especially looked forward to and cherished visits from friends and family at Gemstone Care Centre.

Mother of Deidre, Erin and Patrick. Grandmother to Austin and Riley. Survived by her brothers Terry and Mark and sisters Nikki and Gidget.

We all loved her immensely.

She now joins her mom Lucy, brothers Steve and Danny and nephew Shane in heaven.

She succumbed to illness after years of fighting. Her suffering has ended. She can now Rest In Peace.

She was an amazing lady who was kind and understanding. Never quick to judge and always quick to listen if you needed an ear. When she was plagued by her own demons, helping others gave her a sense of purpose and happiness.

OBITUARIES & IN MEMORIAM David Jonathan (Jon) Wandler January 4, 1974 - July 19, 2019

It is with great sorrow that the family of David Jonathan (Jon) Wandler wish to announce his sudden passing from complications of metastatic bladder cancer at Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops, BC. Jon will be sadly missed by his loving wife of almost 18 years Nathalie (née Leger), his son Tristan (16) and his daughter Brooke (14), his mother Trudy King-Skynner (Peter) in Ontario, father David Wandler (Marjorie) in Nova Scotia, brother James (Jennifer) and nephews Robert and Thomas in Ontario, mother-in-law Francine Leger in New Brunswick, brothers-in-law Martin in NB and Luc in BC as well as many other aunts, uncles, cousins and close friends spread across the country.

Jon was born in Toronto, Ontario. He spent his childhood in Markham, Ontario where he played many high school sports including basketball and football.

He spent many summers at his family’s beloved cottage on Koshlong Lake in the Haliburton Highlands.

He became a camper and then a counselor at Camp Wanakita which is a YMCA camp located on their lake.

He was thrilled that a few years ago his own kids had the chance to experience camp life the same way he did.

In 1996, Jon packed up his Isuzu Impulse and headed West. He visited many of his Wandler relatives in Saskatchewan and Alberta on his way to Kamloops where he landed a summer job at Chapters Viewpoint restaurant. He loved living in the mountains so he decided to enroll in the Bachelor of Tourism Management program at the University College of the Cariboo (now Thompson Rivers University). In 1997, he met the love of his life Nathalie while rowing on Shumway Lake and their incredible life together began.

Four years to the day they met, they got married in

Nathalie’s hometown in Shediac, NB. Shortly after that, they bought their first home in Sahali. Tristan was born in October 2002 and when Brooke arrived in August of 2004, their family was complete. Jon worked very hard to support his family, working long hours at Chapter’s Viewpoint, TRU and Costco before eventually starting his career, 13 years ago, as a real estate appraiser for BC Assessment, a job he truly enjoyed.

Jon was a very friendly, kind, warm, fun loving person as well as a devoted husband, father, son and friend.

He was so proud of his children and was always present at their many sporting events, music recitals and school activities. He shared his love of the cottage with them during many fun family vacations in Ontario.

He also insisted on the kids staying connected with the Wandler side of the family by making the long trek to Saskatchewan to attend the Wandler family reunions every few years.

Jon had many interests including home renovations, hunting, camping, cooking, travelling and attending rock concerts. He developed many close friendships over the years while pursuing his interests. He loved and enjoyed making gourmet meals for his family.

When he would sit down to eat one of those meals, he would look at his family and say “This would be a $40 dollar meal in any restaurant but we get to enjoy it from home”. He liked to keep busy and was always working on his next project, home renovation or repair.

There wasn’t much he didn’t know how to do. He recently added a fantastic deck onto the back of our new downtown home so he could sit out and enjoy the sunsets over the mountains.

Jon was always our hero but he proved to be more than that since his horrific diagnosis 11 short months ago. He fought courageously, going through numerous rounds of chemo and immunotherapy in order to stay with us as long as possible. While receiving treatment, he insisted on continuing to live his life to the fullest so he kept doing his renovations, working out when he had the energy and spending time with his family and

friends. He was thrilled to have been able to go to Maui with us in April when he was still feeling good. Some of our best family memories were made on that trip and they meant everything to him. Just one month ago, he made it back to his favourite place, his cottage in Ontario, where he spent a week with his mum, enjoying the sights and sounds of his special place.

Just prior to his passing, he enjoyed one last family adventure in Whistler Village which included a trip up into the mountains he loved so much to ride the Peak to Peak gondola.

Ask DRAKE Drake Smith, MSW Funeral Director

Every Friday in KTW!

Q. Where should I hold my Celebration of Life?

“Love you forever and always” Jon’s family wishes to thank all the doctors, nurses and other health care professionals who were involved in his care over the last year including everyone who was present during Jon’s last few hours. The kindness and support we have received from family, friends, co-workers at BC Assessment and Royal Inland Hospital will never be forgotten.

As per Jon’s request, no formal service will be held.

A. I’m a big believer in holding a gathering where you’d be comfortable if you were still alive. If you don’t have a church home, but love hanging out with your friends at the A&W in the morning, why not have a little gathering there? Perhaps the golf course? Or the curling rink? Or the...?

A celebration of life will be held in September. Details to follow. !

In lieu of flowers, donations in Jon’s memory may be made to the Royal Inland Hospital Foundation- Cancer Care or to the charity of your choice.

Douglas Wayne Morrison 1952 – 2019

She Walks in Beauty

On July 23, 2019, Douglas Morrison passed away peacefully at Kamloops, BC at the age of 66.

He is survived by his wife of 38 years Heather, his son Drew and daughter Katrina. He is also survived by his brothers Robert (Sharon), Brian (Lori), sister Peggy (Herb) Tarzwell of Kamloops and their families. He was predeceased by his parents Robert and Margaret Morrison.

Doug was born on December 21, 1952 in Prince George, BC. In 1953, the family moved to Vancouver and in 1959 to Surrey.

In 1964, the family again moved to North Kamloops where Doug grew up and attended school. Doug graduated from NorKam High School in 1972.

He worked at Woodward’s, Suncor and finally settled into a lifelong career with CP Rail starting in 1978. He worked for over 32 years as a brakeman, conductor and engineer. He retired in July of 2011. Highlights of his career were taking the Royal Hudson out and the CP Christmas train from Kamloops to Boston Bar. Doug met his wife Heather in 1978 in Vancouver, BC. They married in 1981 and moved to Pritchard in 1982 where they have resided since. Son Drew was born in 1984 and daughter Katrina in 1987. Doug enjoyed gardening, camping, puzzles and card games. He could sit for hours on his stool weeding and pulling mushrooms from the lawn. He was known for always having a handful of Werther candies to give out.

The family would like to thank Dr. Montalbetti, Dr. Cribb, the staff on RIH 5-North and the staff at The Hamlets for Doug’s care. Also thanks to Schoenings Funeral Home.

A Celebration of Life will be held in September for Doug.

LORD BYRON

She walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies;

Ingrid Caines

September 17, 1944 - August 5, 2009

And all that’s best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes: Thus mellowed to that tender light Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

One shade the more, one ray the less, Had half impaired the nameless grace

Deeply missed Forever Loved Always in our hearts.

Which waves in every raven trees, Or softly lightens o’er her face; Where thoughts serenely sweet express How pure, how dear their dwelling place.

And on the cheek, and o’er that brow, So soft, so calm, so eloquent,

Love Bob, Shawn, Shana, Sara and families

The smiles that win, the tints that glow; But tell of days in goodness spent, A mind of peace with all below, A heart whose love is innocent!
