Neighbours Darcee O’Hearn (right) and Yolanda Ridge are gearing up to host a publishing workshop in Rossland this week that will explore key factors like market research and how to deal with rejection.

Rossland authors share publishing paths BY VALERIE ROSSI Times Staff

The daunting task of getting published has just turned a page with a publishing workshop put on by two Rossland authors. Neighbours Darcee O’Hearn and Yolanda Ridge are delving into their experiences last year – O’Hearn will touch on the benefits of taking the self-publishing route with her first book “Leonard the Larch” in her “Legends of the Forest” series while Ridge delves into the process of getting “Trouble in the Trees” recognized by Orca Book Publishers. “I’ve learned to not take anything personally in the book business because as you can see as we sit in the bookstore, we are flooded with books,” said O’Hearn. “There’s thousands and thousands of people that want to publish their books and that’s why you have to sell yourself and you have to make people think, ‘I need this book.’”

The $25 workshop held Thursday from 7-9 p.m. at Rouge Framing in the former Bank of Montreal building on Rossland’s Washington Street will explore topics to help writers take the publishing leap, including market research, crafting query letters, making the pitch, working with editors, developing a thick skin and dealing with rejection. “Originally when I started getting rejection letters from standard publishing it was devastating for me and it kind of hit my self-esteem pretty hard and even the reviews I was getting were hard to take,” said O’Hearn. But she didn’t let that break her dream of developing educational fun reads. After selling already 800 copies of her first book, O’Hearn is now pleased to announce the second in her series – “Cedric the Cedar” – is set to hit the bookshelf this fall. The picture book follows the story of a Western Red Cedar (Cedric), who’s a fire

control officer set out to save the forest but also highlights the value of natural forest fires. “We really need forest fires – it’s a way of ridding disease and it’s actually a natural occurrence that we shouldn’t always put out,” said O’Hearn, who has a degree in forestry. Beyond having the freedom of tweaking her work through self-publishing, O’Hearn found that her story hit a target audience that didn’t necessarily fit into what other publishers were seeking. The $5,000 spent on the first 1,000 books printed has already been covered by the sales she’s made – taking home about half the retail price per book. Ridge has learned that though she didn’t have to take the lead on marketing and had more time to continue writing the sequel – “Road Block” (released this spring) – profit does not come trickling in as quickly.

A group of outspoken Greater Trail residents plan to make their voices heard on “smart meters” at a province-wide rally held outside the FortisBC building in Trail Wednesday. Sharon Noble, director of the Coalition to Stop Smart Meters, said she hopes Trail’s efforts will spread word on a process other residents of B.C. have already “unwillingly” gone through. “We – Hydro’s customers – did not have that opportunity since Hydro did not have to apply to BCUC (B.C. Utilities Commission),” said the Victoria resident. “People should take full advantage of this and head this off before it can get started.” The coalition has scheduled its rallies strategically on the same day as Pink Shirt Day, a national anti-bullying day. “The purpose of the rally is to tell people that Hydro is intimidating and bullying and it seems to be an appropriate day because Premier Christy Clark called for the Pink Shirt Day to complain about the bullying that’s going on generally in schools,” said Noble. “We support that entirely but bullying in schools and bullying people in their own homes, neither one is right.” While these meters have already been implemented in other parts of the province, FortisBC is finalizing its application to the BCUC for an

RDKB backs moratorium BY ARNE PETRYSHEN Rossland News

The Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) has decided to back a Union of British Columbia Municipalities (UBCM) motion that called for a moratorium on smart meters until more research is shown. The motion comes after information that the power supplier for the region district, FortisBC, had to put in an application to be authorized to install the meters. Area A Director Ali Grieve brought the resolution to the board of directors meeting last Thursday in Trail.

Strong takeout doubles The bidding: East, with 14 points, opens one diamond, his higher ranking and longer minor. He has a perfect two club rebid avoiding notrump with a singleton spade. Even if partner has four spades, a minor is probably a better place to play than one notrump. However, South has other plans with a massive hand that would have been opened two clubs had his opponent passed. If somebody doubles and then bids his own suit, he is showing 16 points or more.

The opening lead: The three of diamonds. Minor suit openings are not always lead directive, but with the opponents bidding the majors, a diamond is as good as any lead. West must lead a small diamond to tell partner he has three or more cards in the suit. The play: West wins the ace of diamonds and returns a diamond to Southâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s King. South cashed the ace of hearts and plays the eight of spades to the ten. He then plays the queen of hearts which East covers and South ruffs with the ace. South plays the seven of spades to the jack, drawing the last trump and runs hearts pitching his clubs. The club finesse is not necessary. The third entry (2 to the 4) to the dummy also is not necessary. The result: Six Spades making 6 for

REGIONAL FortisBC seeking meter approval

FALSE ALARM

FROM PAGE 1 advanced metering infrastructure program in this region. Should the BCUC grant approval, the utility would initiate replacement of existing electro-mechanical and digital meters with advanced meters by 2015. “We still have to go through a very public and transparent process so we are a bit different in that we’re going through the whole regulatory process to even see if we can go forward with the advance metering process,” explained Neal Pobran, FortisBC corporate communications advisor. If given the green light, nearly all of the existing 112,000 meters in the Southern Interior will be replaced with the advanced units. Pobran notes there would be many benefits involved with the switchover including real-time electricity information, theft prevention and improved power outage restoration. While the coalition highlights its concern wireless radiation can have on people with health issues like multiple sclerosis or epilepsy, Pobran remains confident that health experts are claming the devices to be perfectly safe. Protest signs will be on site for those interested in joining the rally on Esplanade Avenue from 11 a.m. until 1 p.m. Wednesday.

Another sister for Nelson? BY MEGAN COLE Nelson Star

The City of Nelson could be adding another sister city to its roster. During a presentation by the Nelson and District Chamber of Commerce at Monday’s committee of the whole meeting, Tom Thomson said the chamber is looking at the possibility of adding Sandpoint, Idaho to Nelson’s sister cities. “This initiative was originally brought to the chamber as an organization that can take the lead in trying to make this sis-

ter city initiative happen through Whitewater,” said Thomson. “Whitewater and Schweitzer Mountain Ski Resort down in Idaho, they’ve got a reciprocal skiing agreement in place now. “We think that there are some good opportunities with Sandpoint, and not to discount the other sister cities because they are very important initiatives, this one I think can have some more economic impact” Nelson has two sister cities: Izushi, Japan and BaieSaint-Paul, Quebec.

CASTLEGAR

Cougar struck by car BY TIMES STAFF A cougar was euthanized after getting hit by a vehicle near Blueberry Creek Monday morning. Castlegar RCMP reported that at approximately 6 a.m. a driver called police after he struck a cougar in the Blueberry/Fairview area. The driver explained he hit the cougar hard and feared it was injured when it ran off. A Conservation Officer was called out and he, along with tracking dogs, located the cougar in the canyon area at Blueberry Creek. The cougar, which had suffered a broken hind leg in the collision, was put down. RCMP could not confirm if this was the same cougar recently spotted in the Blueberry area.

Staff from the Kootenay Savings Credit Union branch in downtown Trail were briefly evacuated Monday morning when a fire alarm sounded. Fortunately, the alarm was triggered during some minor renovations at the branch and the staff soon returned inside.

‘Constituents want more information,’ says Grieve FROM PAGE 1 “I was asked by area residents to bring the issue forward,” she said, adding that the resolution didn’t come directly from here, but from staff. Her suggestion was simply that they discuss it, she said. “Basically, what I’m hearing from constituents is that they want more information and I think that’s a fair request. That’s kind of the reason I wanted to bring it here for a discussion.” Grieve asked for support to write a letter for more information before “something is imposed on us that we didn’t ask for.” Marguerite Rotvold, Midway director, said the resolution was confusing in a way. “The UBCM resolution really

came about because of the government mandating that B.C. Hydro proceed with that,” Rotvold said. “In this area, we’re under Fortis, and Fortis has to apply for that privilege to use smart meters.” She argued that the UBCM resolution pertains to B.C. Hydro and not FortisBC. Rotvold mentioned a resolution from the Lower Mainland that asked for the public to be able to choose whether or not to have the meters installed. “There’s a lot of fear out there and I think this is attempting to address that,” Grieve added in. Brian Taylor, Grand Forks director, spoke against the motion.

“I think it’s general hysteria,” Taylor said. “I think smart meters are part of doing good business, and just like in your municipalities you couldn’t opt out from the sewer or water service in your area, this is something that needs to be done in concert with the whole province, and I think, clearly, it’s hysterical.” Nipper Kettle, Greenwood’s director, sided with Taylor on the issue. “I’m going to vote against the motion as well,” Kettle said. “I think a lot of this is fear mongering by people that do not know the facts.” Grieve shot back that, “Regardless if it’s hysteria fear, if it’s an unknown, let’s put the facts out there and share them with everybody.”

townhouse complex in “Trouble in the Trees” and next raising her concerns when a developer wants to put a road through her grandmother’s farm land in “Road Block.” “Bree fights the battles that I wish I always could fight but now I’m fighting them on paper, instead,” said Ridge. “I think it’s an age where you really start pushing the limits and not just blindly following rules but ques-

tioning them.” The woman with a masters degree in scientific counselling spent much time writing research papers before turning to her passion for fiction when she left work to raise her two young children. O’Hearn knows all too well what it’s like to balance such a project all while raising children. “Give it 15-20 minutes a day and you’d be surprised how much you can get

done,” she said. “Whenever you feel compelled to write, keep your file open and that’s how I survived doing this with three kids, working and doing all the volunteering that I do.” The workshop will include treats and refreshments, not to mention a copy of each of the writers’ first books.

PROVINCIAL

Labour Relations Board to determine if teachers can launch walkout THE CANADIAN PRESS VANCOUVER - B.C. teachers may be allowed to launch a full-scale strike if the Labour Relations Board approves their application for such job action as the government prepares legislation to impose a contract. A board hearing Monday night will also consider whether a mediator should step into the labour dispute that began last September. Education Minister George Abbott has said after nearly a year of negotiations, the teachers’ union and the province’s bargaining agent are too far apart for a mediator to settle the ongoing dispute. Teachers have so far staged limited job action such as not filling out report cards, meeting with administrators or supervising children in playgrounds. On Tuesday and Wednesday, they will vote on whether to escalate their action and launch a full-scale walkout. The Labour Relations Board must approve their next steps because education is designated an essential service.

Susan Lambert, head of the B.C. Teachers’ Federation, said the union is appealing to parents to contact Abbott and let him know that a negotiated end to the contract is what teachers want. “Please help us avoid what would be the worst-case scenario (and) inflame an already problematic relationship, and that is a legislated end to this round of collective bargaining,” she said. “The last thing we want to do is go out on strike. What we’re trying to do is exhaust every possibility ahead of time. That includes mediation.” Abbott has said while teachers have a democratic right to escalate job action, it would only increase the harm to students and impact their parents. Teachers want a 15-per-cent wage hike during the government’s net-zero mandate for public-sector employees. “The union’s demands, which would add $2 billion in costs for B.C. taxpayers, are not acceptable given the current financial reality,” Abbott said.

Sinking ship leaves diesel sheen in bay BY PETER W. RUSLAND Cowichan News Leader Pictorial

It is still unknown why a 40-foot trawler sunk in Cowichan Bay late Thursday, or early Friday, leaving a sheen of diesel fuel in its wake, Coast Guard officials say. The vessel’s name is still unknown, and the names of its owners are not being released by the Coast Guard. Those owners are responsible for salvaging the vessel — now being pumped out — and hauling it from the bay, Coast Guard agent Dan Bate told the News Leader Pictorial Friday afternoon. Coast Guard officials earlier said the boat leaked about 200 square meters of oil-diesel into the sensitive bay. But Bate said most of the vessel’s fuel was removed after the boat sunk earlier this week, also for unknown reasons, off Pender Island. “There’s now a light, unrecoverable sheen in Cowichan Bay,” he said. It was unknown if any bay wildlife was affected, Bate noted. The fuel skim will dissipate through wave action and evaporation, he added. The incident was first attended Friday morning by the 47-foot Coast Guard cutter Cape Naden after a call from the bay’s wharfinger.

Cape Naden left when a smaller Coast Guard pollution-control vessel arrived. It stood down when recoverable fuel wasn’t found in the bay, Bate said. “The owners are awaiting (low) tides to remove the boat.” The owners are also responsible for any cleanup bills, he said. Bate was unaware if Transport Canada is investigating concerning seaworthiness of the partially submerged trawler towed Friday afternoon to just off Hecate Park’s boat-ramp area. The feds noted the vessel is not the derelict Dominion that’s legally sat in the bay for about five years. Bay Director Lori Iannidinardo is still trying to secure funds to pump out Dominion’s unknown volume of fuel, in case it sinks. MP Jean Crowder is pursuing federal legislation to confiscate derelict vessels dotting Canada’s shores, and to take action against their owners.

WILLIAMS LAKE

Investigation under way into chlorine leak THE CANADIAN PRESS

WILLIAMS LAKE, B.C. - An independent health and safety consultant has arrived in the B.C. community of Williams Lake as officials try to determine what caused a chlorine gas leak that sickened 70 people. Williams Lake Chief Administrative Officer Brian Carruthers says officials in the community will also be taking part in the investigation. He says it’s lucky that the exposure suffered by 45 children and 25 adults was relatively minor, but the pool at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation complex will remain closed until it’s determined what went wrong. An adult and a boy remained in hospital for observation overnight after gas used to cleanse the pool water was released into the air while a swim meet was under way. One parent says a smaller pool in the swimming area had been emptied when people began to notice a foul odour and the complex was evacuated. Chlorine gas dissolves into the moisture of the lungs, forming an acid that irritates lung tissue, causing swelling, wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath, possible chest pain and, in severe cases, bacterial pneumonia.

McGuintyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oilsands comment surprises Redford THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO - Alberta Premier Alison Redford says Ontario counterpart Dalton McGuinty is being simplistic for suggesting a booming oilsands is bad news for Ontario. Redford disputed McGuintyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comments Monday that a strong oilsands industry means a high Canadian dollar, which hurts Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wellspring manufacturing and export sectors. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a false paradigm,â&#x20AC;?

Redford said in a conference call from Chicago, where she is meeting with business leaders. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We know how the value of the dollar works. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in relation to an overall national economy. The reason the Canadian dollar is high is partly because the United States has been going through some economic difficulties. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very simplistic approach.â&#x20AC;? Redford also said the

remarks caught her by surprise because McGuinty had not raised the issue previously. Earlier Monday, McGuinty rejected calls from Redford for him to do more to publicly defend the oilsands. He said Ontario would prefer a lower dollar over a growing oil and gas industry in Western Canada. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The only reason the dollar is high, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a petro dollar, driven by the global demand

for oil and gas to be sourced in Western Canada,â&#x20AC;? McGuinty said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If I had my preferences as to whether we have a rapidly growing oil and gas sector in the West or a lower dollar benefiting Ontario, I stand with the lower dollar.â&#x20AC;? During the weekend, Redford called on Ontario and Quebec to speak out in favour of the oilsands and the Keystone pipeline linking Canada to Texas.

Liberals take the blame for Toews Twitter attack THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA - Interim Liberal Leader Bob Rae says one of his staffers was responsible for a series of anonymous Internet attacks aimed at Public Safety Minister Vic Toews. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was advised yesterday that an employee of the Liberal research bureau in fact is responsible,â&#x20AC;? the chagrined Liberal leader told the House of Commons. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to offer to the minister my personal apology to him for

the conduct of a member of my staff.â&#x20AC;? Rae says the offending staffer has resigned. Toews said he accepts the apology. Two weeks ago, Toews came under attack on the web over his sponsorship of an Internet surveillance bill. An anonymous Twitter user dished out salacious details of the ministerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s divorce proceedings. An effort to track the source pointed to

an origin within the Parliament Buildings. Rae said this sort of attack is unacceptable. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of the things that make public life difficult is when political attacks become personal,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have tried in my political life to make it very clear that matters of personal and private conduct are not to be the subject of political attack or political reference. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to say very clearly that we did not

AIRDRIE, Alta. - Animal lovers from across the country are volunteering to adopt a pet husky that killed a newborn baby in southern Alberta. At least a dozen people have made requests through the city of Airdrie and many more have sent messages to the babyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parents. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Euthanizing this dog will not bring that little baby back,â&#x20AC;? said Ron Pawlowski of Bradford, Ont., a business professor who wants to have the dog moved to his farm. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know that the whole country shares in this poor familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grief. If this dog proves to be no further a threat, I hope that the dog can be given a new home.â&#x20AC;? The two-day-old baby boy was bitten Feb. 15 in the coupleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home in the bedroom community north of Calgary. He died later that night in hospital. A family friend has said the baby was crying in his crib, and the dog was likely trying to comfort him when it bit him once in the head. The female dog had previously given birth to several litters of puppies. The RCMP have said there was no negligence by the parents and there will be no criminal charges. The husky remains in quarantine and is being assessed by an animal behaviour expert. If the family decides it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want the dog destroyed, the matter will be heard by a provincial court judge March 15. Rob and Rhonda Fradette said in a statement last week that they had been mourning the loss of their new baby and hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t discussed whether the dog should be destroyed. The animal had not been aggressive before and went through training and obedience classes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will never know what our family pet was thinking nor will we ever know why she did what she did,â&#x20AC;? they said. The Fradettes are active in the dog sledding community and run a home-based company called Urban Mushers that sells dog-sledding supplies.

Taxing times for B.C. government

efore this week’s budget debate is drowned out by the shouting over the teachers’ dispute, here’s a look at the main points and the arguments unfolding around them. The setting for Finance Minister Kevin Falcon’s first budget is what he dreaded when Premier Christy Clark handed him the job. Recovery is painfully slow, with mining and petroleum growing and forest products struggling to hold and build on gains made in Asia. This and the $3 billion dismantling of the harmonized sales tax moved Falcon to limit overall spending growth to an average of two per cent for the next three years. That means little or no increase to all areas except health care, education and social assistance. Despite holding the line on public service pay and not replacing 2,000 pos-

itions over the next three years, Clark and Falcon had to postpone the elimination of the 2.5-per-cent small business income tax to get to a balanced budget by 2013. And Falcon has again dangled the prospect of raising general corporate income tax from 10 to 11 per cent, but not until 2014. Business experts applauded the hard line on spending, noting the contrast with Alberta’s big spending and Ontario’s big spending hangover. NDP finance critic Bruce Ralston says Falcon’s twoper-cent spending target is “unrealistic,” and the whole program is motivated mostly by two byelections this year and a general election next year. He said the proposal to raise general business taxes is a repeat of his effort to save the HST, and it won’t happen if the B.C. Liberals win in 2013.

TOM

FLETCHER B.C. Views B.C. Conservative leader John Cummins made the bizarre claim that it’s an NDP-style “tax and spend” budget, and inaccurately accused Falcon of raising taxes on small business. He also joined the NDP chorus of outrage over ICBC, BC Hydro and medical premium increases. Some other hot topics in the budget: • Selling assets. The big one here is B.C.’s liquor wholesaling monopoly, run out of warehouses in Kamloops and Vancouver. Falcon insists the private

sector does this kind of work more efficiently, and union contracts will be protected in a bidding process. The NDP argues that selling off a monopoly puts this government cash cow at risk, and points to private retail stores with higher prices and lower wages. The proposed sale of 100 surplus Crown properties has raised cries of “selling the silverware to buy groceries.” But land sales are nothing new for governments, and Falcon prefers that to raising taxes. • Carbon tax. The last scheduled increase goes ahead in July, adding another penny on a litre of gasoline, followed by a freeze and review of the whole climate program. Ralston says the climate plan is “in tatters,” along with dozens of other policy areas that are also under review after 11 years of B.C. Liberal rule.

NDP leader Adrian Dix vows to keep the carbon tax and its offsetting personal income tax cuts, direct carbon tax revenues to transit and rural energysaving retrofits, and hike the general corporate tax rate from 10 to 12 per cent to pay for it. • HST. Asked what he would have done as finance minister, Ralston suggested getting rid of the HST sooner. Dix continues to misrepresent the HST as solely a transfer to big business, ignoring the small and mediumsized businesses that have a year left to take advantage of input tax credits. Simon Fraser University economist Jon Kesselman has estimated that poor people will be worse off when the HST ends, while the rest of us will see a very small net benefit.

DYER

it was the second-largest city in the British Empire, only surpassed by London. So the centre of the city was full of Georgian and Regency buildings that reflected the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s power and wealth at that time. Most of them are still there. Calcutta was poor for a long time, so it hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had the money to erase its past in the brutal way that is happening in most other Asian big cities. Almost all Chinese cities have already destroyed their architectural heritage, and beautiful cities like Hanoi are working at it fulltime. But Calcuttaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wonderful buildings are in dreadful shape, and soon it will find enough money to start destroying them wholesale. It would cost more than a vat of blue paint, but labour isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t that expensive in the city, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cheaper to restore than to destroy and rebuild. If Calcutta started now, it could have a city centre that is the envy of Asia in ten years. Alternatively, the West Bengal government could push the blue business a bit further. After all, nothing exceeds like excess. Why not paint all 14 million of Calcuttaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inhabitants blue, and declare that they are all avatars of Vishnu? That would get everybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attention. Gwynne Dyer is a Londonbased independent journalist whose articles are published in 45 countries.

The Harper government pension follies An editorial from the Hamilton Spectator. How fitting. Right around the time that Sun Life Financial releases its annual Unretirement Index, which suggests only three in 10 Canadians expect to be fully retired by age 66, the Harper government takes to the road to make the case for public pension benefits being unsustainable. Is there a message here? Perhaps that raising the pension benefit qualification age from 65 to 67 is in keeping with the average expectations? Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not seriously suggesting there is any collusion here, only that the timing of the two things is ironic. Most of us are feeling increasingly anxious about what our retirement years hold, financially at least. Many private and some public plans are under pressure, many running deficits. Household income is stagnant, but the price of goods and services is not, meaning average Canadians are further behind now than a year or two ago. Senior governments are wrestling with massive deficits and questionable expectations around when their respective deficits can be curbed. And the international financial scene continues to be volatile, threatening retirement nest eggs.

But we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to sit quietly while the Harper government continues to manufacture a fake crisis around Old Age Security, which currently pays most Canadians about $508 monthly, and the Guaranteed Income Supplement paid to those at the lowest end of the income scale. When the OAS crisis was created by Harper at the World Economic Forum in Davos, reaction was quick and critical. Pension experts were unanimous in refuting his claim that OAS/GIS are not sustainable. The governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own actuarial tables supported that position. The Parliamentary Budget Officer joined the chorus and was promptly labelled as â&#x20AC;&#x153;unreliableâ&#x20AC;? by the finance minister. So the Harper brain trust switched strategies, handing the odious challenge of selling this fake crisis to Human Resources Minister Diane Finley. At the Canadian Club in Toronto, she painted a picture of an economy awash with frail and expensive seniors relying on a shrinking and taxed workforce of younger Canadians. Now itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just OAS/GIS that are unaffordable, but the entire social safety net, so naturally younger Canadians are at risk if they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t jump

aboard the Harper juggernaut. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a shameful way to discuss and promote public policy - pitting insecure younger workers against retirees - but it might work. Self-interest, enlightened or otherwise, is a powerful catalyst. But it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t change the central reality: Increasing the age of OAS/GIS eligibility is not necessary. It will penalize the most vulnerable among us, because the benefits are most important to people with the least amount of money and retirement savings. It will force more poor retirees, such as those receiving disability benefits, onto welfare and other provincial programs, which will effectively download Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s costs onto the provinces. The Harper government could choose to reduce or even revisit its shockingly expensive purchase of new jet fighters. It could scale back its massive expansion of prisons, which will also result in higher costs for provinces. Both these things yield savings on par or greater than the OAS/GIS rollback, but the government appears determined to erode retirement lifestyles instead, a case of misplaced priorities if ever there was one.

PEOPLE JAN BERENSTAIN

OBITUARIES WILLIAMS (NEE MACDONALD), EILEEN — peacefully at home on February 21, 2012. Mom was born in Halifax, Nova Scotia on March 23, 1915, to Dr. Ralph E. Macdonald and Florence Anne (Bent) Macdonald. After the Halifax Explosion of 1917, which Mom always said “blew her family west”, the Macdonald Clan settled on Maple Street on Kits Point in Vancouver. Mom spent her early childhood there with her beloved sister, Ethel, and numerous cousins. When her father’s health deteriorated and he was advised to find a drier climate, the family moved to Rossland where she spent her school years. She became an accomplished dancer, particularly in ballet, and at school memorized an astonishing amount of poetry and Shakespeare which she was forever after able to recite at will. She was taught to ski by Trygve Nora and toured extensively through the back country around Red and Granite Mountains long before they were developed as ski hills. She told many stories of those days, including toboggan rides down the road from Rossland to Trail and her friendship with a local character, BlackJack Macdonald (no relation) - she actually saw BlackJack’s gold, a local legend of a missing fortune in gold coins. She was the first woman to climb Old Glory on skis and to ski down, and always liked to refer to Old Glory as “my mountain”. When her family relocated to West Point Grey in Vancouver and World War II broke out, Mom was one of the first 150 Canadian women to join the WD (Women’s Division) of the Royal Canadian Air Force. She trained in Centralia, Ontario, and was posted first to Summerside, PEI, and then to Claresholm Alberta, as Flight Lieutenant Eileen “Wee Mac” Macdonald. In her later years, she enjoyed travelling to WD reunions to reconnect with her wartime colleagues. After the war, Mom returned to the Rossland/Trail area to teach Pro Rec and skiing. She met and married W.O. “Windy” Williams in 1948. They honeymooned at Yodel Inn, Dad’s cabin near the top of the Squaw Basin Trail (now Reno’s Run) and spent much time touring and skiing in the local mountains. They settled in Warfield in 1948 and raised two children, Wake and Karen. When Dad retired from Cominco in 1965, Mom went back to UBC to complete her teaching degree and began teaching in the Trail school district. During her career she taught first

Writer co-authored ‘Bears’ books

at J.L. Crowe and Rossland Secondary Schools, then found her true calling as school Librarian at Central and MacLean Elementary Schools. After Dad’s passing in 1979, she retired from teaching in 1980 and began to do some travelling: a culturally interesting cruise to Alaska aboard a Russian cruise ship, several WD reunions in eastern Canada, jaunts to the Northwest Territories with Elderhostel and to visit her son in the Arctic communities of Rankin Inlet and Cambridge Bay, and around B.C. in her half-ton truck and camper with her Scottie dogs Mac and Flora. For many years, Mom volunteered as a driver for Meals on Wheels, continuing well into her late eighties, delivering meals in some cases to people quite a bit younger than she was! At the same time she also wrote for and co-edited the seniors’ newsletter, “The Best Years”. As she got into her nineties, she was herself supported by Meals on Wheels, Home Support and the Bridges program at Columbia View Lodge. The family would like to thank everyone involved with these organizations for the kindness and the care that they gave our mother. In her last few years, Mom was also wonderfully cared for by April Cashman and her colleagues Stacy Prince, Elaine Robataille, and Monica Averill, who were instrumental in supporting us in Mom’s care so that she was able to stay in her own home. Our sincere thanks to them as well. Mom was pre-deceased by her husband, Windy, and sister, Ethel, and is survived by her children, Karen and Wake, her nieces, Lucy Quinn and Pat (Dr. E.K.) Murakami, her great-nieces and nephews Mark, Kathy, Julie, Paul and Doug, and her “adopted” children, Len and Heather Seymour. There was a family remembrance held on February 25, 2012 in Hope, B.C. A drop-in remembrance of Mom’s life will be held on March 31, 2012 from 1 to 4 pm at her home at 410 Forrest Drive in Warfield. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to the charity of your choice. A poem written by Eileen’s sister, Ethel (Macdonald) Quinn, to explain to Eileen’s nieces why there was no need to worry during the war: AUNTIE’S IN THE AIR FORCE Bombing squadrons don’t appear Things like that can’t happen here In our hearts there is no fear Auntie’s in the Air Force Blacked-out windows, stuffed-up cracks Imminence of war attacks Can’t send shivers down our backs Auntie’s in the Air Force If in the night the sirens blare wouldn’t feel the least bit scared We know the country’s well prepared With Auntie in the Air Force We love you, Mom, and we will miss you.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS PHILADELPHIA - Jan Berenstain, who with her husband, Stan, wrote and illustrated the Berenstain Bears books that have charmed preschoolers and their parents for 50 years, has died. She was 88. Berenstain, a longtime resident of Solebury in southeastern Pennsylvania, suffered a severe stroke on Thursday and died Friday without regaining consciousness, her son Mike Berenstain said. The gentle tales of Mama Bear, Papa Bear, Brother Bear and Sister Bear were inspired by the Berenstain children, and later their grandchildren. The stories address children’s common concerns and aim to offer guidance on subjects like dentist visits, peer pressure, a new sibling or summer camp. The first Berenstain Bears book, “The Big Honey Hunt,” was published in 1962. Over the years, more than 300 titles have been released in 23 languages - most recently in Arabic and Icelandic - and have become a rite of passage for generations of young readers. The characters’ stories also appeared on television, including a series produced by Canadian company Nelvana. Canadian director Shawn Levy has said in recent years that he was working on a big-screen adaptation with Nelvana. “They say jokes don’t travel well, but family humour does,” Jan Berenstain told The Associated Press in 2011. “Family values is what we’re all about.” Stan and Jan Berenstain, both Philadelphia natives, were 18 when they met on their first day at art school in 1941. They married in 1946, after Stan Berenstain returned home from serving as a medical illustrator at a stateside Army hos-

Jan Berenstain works on art for a Berenstain Bears book in Solebury, Pa. Her son Mike Berenstain said she died Feb. 24. pital during the Second World War. During that time, Jan Berenstain worked as a draftsman for the Army Corps of Engineers and as a riveter building Navy seaplanes. Before their family of bear books was born, the young couple had already built a successful career in periodicals. A cartoon series they produced called “All in the Family” ran in McCall’s and Good Housekeeping magazines for 35 years, and their art appeared in magazines including Collier’s and The Saturday Evening Post. Stan and Jan Berenstain created hundreds of books until Stan Berenstain’s death in 2005 at the age of 82.

No winner has come forward to claim massive lottery jackpot THE ASSOCIATED PRESS HARTFORD, Conn. Could somebody be carrying a $254 million lottery ticket and not even know it? Did they buy the ticket while passing through the state and forget about it? Or is the winner of the biggest jackpot in Connecticut history taking time to consult first with a financial adviser? The search is still on for the winner of the Nov. 2 Powerball drawing, with billboards across the state urging the ticket holder to step forward and end the mystery. The person who bought the ticket at an undisclosed location in Fairfield County has six months to claim the prize, which ranks as the 12th biggest jackpot in Powerball history. If no winner comes for-

ward by April 30, the money would go back to the states that fed the pot. At convenience stores across southwest Connecticut, rumours have been swirling about unlucky souls who had the winning combination - 12-14-34-3946, Powerball 36 - only to lose the ticket. But a spokeswoman for the Connecticut Lottery Corporation said that nobody has contacted headquarters so far to make a claim. “We’re on a kind of holding pattern until they come in,” spokeswoman Linda Tarnowski said. Lottery officials have urged people to check their Powerball tickets through messages on billboards and display screens at 2,700 retailers across the state. Although nearly two

weeks have passed since the drawing, Tarnowski said there are countless possible explanations for the delay. “You really don’t know. Someone could have gone in with a group and they’re waiting to split it up. Maybe they’re talking to a financial adviser or attorney. It could be they’re waiting for a new tax year,” she said. “You just hope that it is someone in the state of Connecticut who has it.” The $254.2 million prize is by far the biggest lottery jackpot ever in Connecticut, where the previous record was a $59.5 million Powerball jackpot in June 2005. The winner can claim a $254.2 million annuity paid over 29 years or a lump sum of nearly $152 million in cash.

B.C. WINTER GAMES

Athletes shine on big stage BY THE VERNON MORNING STAR VERNON, BC - Greater Vernon’s 2012 B.C. Winter Games have been declared the best yet. Three days of intense competition, incredible athletic ability and an overwhelming Games spirit came to an end Sunday. “Without a question, these are the best B.C. Winter Games that have ever been held,” Kelly Mann, president and CEO of the B.C. Games Society told Vernon-Monashee MLA Eric Foster prior to the closing ceremonies at the Wesbild Centre. Athletes, both those proudly wearing their medals and even those heading home empty-handed, were beaming as they left with some unbelievable memories. But no smile could beat that of VancouverSquamish biathlete Hunter Sones, who was presented the WR Bennett Award for Athletic Excellence. “Wow,” said the speechless 13-year-old, donning the prestigious award which includes a $2,500 scholarship as well as three bronze medals. Sones is just one the 1,145 athletes, 292 coaches and 160 officials who took part in the 15 different sports. The Kootenay contingent finished seventh overall with 14 medals including five gold, two silver and seven bronze. Salmo’s Justine Gould grappled to a bronze medal in Judo U-48-kilogram class, and Fernie’s Nik Dunn won gold in the 90-kg. class with Liam Teetzel taking bronze in the 66-kg.

Trail teams jump into March madness BY TIMES STAFF

Highschool Basketball

The Trail Men’s Basketball Association starts shooting for the championship trophy as playoffs get underway this week. In what has been one of the closest seasons in TMBL history, it took the last week of play to determine the top four seeds and the playoffs are stacking up to be just as exciting. Last night the fourth and fifth place teams, Castlegar Realty and Adrenaline Adventures tipped off in an elimination match. The winner moves on to play first place Northport Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. in the J. L. Crowe gymnasium while the loser takes a seat in the bleacher. The second place Mota Automotive plays third place Rock Island at 7:45 p.m. The consolation and finals wind up on Mar. 7 with the consolation final going at 6:30 p.m. and the finals at 7:45 p.m.

It’s a frantic week in high school basketball. J. L. Crowe Grade 8 boys travel to South Slocan for a six-team playoff tournament at Mount Sentinel Wednesday while the Crowe Grade 8 girls will host half a dozen teams on Thursday with action starting at 9 a.m. in the Crowe Gym. The Junior Girls and Boys also hit the road for Friday and Saturday games. The boys tip off at L. V. Rogers in Nelson in a seven-team round robin tournament while the girls are at Stanley Humphries in Castlegar. The J. L. Crowe Senior boys team were in tough against a strong opposition in Grand Forks on the weekend. Nelson’s L. V. Rogers are off to the AA provincials after capturing the AA West Kootenay Zone tournament. The high school hoops squad defeated David Thompson Secondary of Invermere 64-49 in the final on Saturday afternoon.

Trail’s Daniel Merlo came close to a podium with fifth and sixth place finishes in the sprint and five-kilometre Nordic ski events. Fernie’s Andrea Byrne led the Kootenay Zone 1 team with four medals - two gold in the juvenile freestyle skiing and combined events, as well as two bronze in the moguls and dual moguls. Kootenay Archers won the most medals with a total of six. Darby Dean of Kimberley and Cranbrook’s Krista Pitney each won gold and silver medals and Graeme Black of Cranbrook picked up two bronze. While the athletes are the real stars of the Games, Greater Vernon was also shining. From the thousands of volunteers who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to the committee who has spent the last two years preparing for the event, the Games would not have been possible without them, said Foster. “Congratulations on staging the best B.C. Winter Games ever,” proclaimed Foster. The Thompson-Okanagan zone secured 80 medals, ranking second in medal standings just under Vancouver-Squamish with 81. Placing third was Fraser Valley with 72 medals, Vancouver Island-Central Coast claimed 52 medals, CaribooNorth East earned 43, Fraser River Delta went home with 36 medals, the Kootenays 14 and North West won 11 medals.

Koshey commits, Jones’ lead Bobcats BY JIM BAILEY Times Sports Editor

Trail native Steve Koshey has committed to the University of Alabama-Huntsville for the 2012-13 season. Since being traded from the Trail Smoke Eaters during the 2010-11 season, the Surrey Eagle defenceman has put up 65 points in 86 games and currently sits in fifth place among BCHL defensemen in points. During his career in the BCHL, Koshey has 27 goals and 104 assists for 131 points in 212 games. Surrey head coach Matt Erhart, was very excited about the Eagles latest commitment. “Since getting Steve last season, he has been an integral part of the Eagles . . . We are excited of his opportunity at Alabama Huntsville.” Koshey will join five former BCHLers at UAH, including former Eagle Jeff Vanderlugt. Alabama last made it to the

NCAA tournament in 2010. “I would like to thank the Surrey Eagles and the coaching staff for their commitment and hard work in helping me obtain an NCAA Division I scholarship. I have become a complete player in my time with the Eagles and am looking forward to furthering my hockey career at Alabama Huntsville.” Surrey moved into the top 20 of the Canadian Junior Rankings last week and currently sit in 17th spot in the nation. Connor and Kellen Jones of the Quinnipiac University Bobcats are heading to the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference playoffs after beating Brown 4-1 and tying Kevin Limbert’s Yale Bulldogs 2-2 in NCAA Division 1 hockey on the weekend. Quinnipiac wraps-up the regular season with a 9-8-5 mark, while Yale goes to 10-102 in league play. With the fifth seed clinched, Quinnipiac will

host 12th seed Brown on March 2-4 in a best-of-three series. Kellen picked up two goals and two assists in the Brown win while Connor added a goal and an assist in each game. The Montrose twins lead the team in scoring, Connor with 35 points and Kellen with 30. Line-mate Matthew Peca also factored into all Quinnipiac goals; the three have quickly become a formidable force in ECAC hockey. “I thought me and the Joneses had great energy this weekend,” Peca said in a release. “We played off each other well and generated a lot of offense. I think everyone wanted the bye, but we’ll re-focus on Brown for next weekend.” The tie against Yale cost the team a first-round bye as they finished the season deadlocked with Colgate for fourth, but head-to-head matchups relegated the Bobcats to fifth place.

The Atom A West Kootenay championship tournament hit the ice in Beaver Valley over the weekend. Spokane beat Grand Forks handily in one semi-final while Nelson advanced after squeaking by Rossland/Trail in overtime. In the final, Nelson led the Chiefs in the middle of the third 6-4 but Spokane came back to tie it and eventually win 7-6 in a shootout.

St. Denis scores in OT FROM PAGE 13 The top four teams receive byes to the next round. “Yesterday was a huge win for us as a team,” Connor said. “We played great, especially on the power play. Tonight’s game was a tough one. I feel like we should’ve won. It’s nice to get a point, but we all wanted a victory.” Sixth seeded Yale will play against the 11th seeded Princeton Tigers in an Ivy League matchup. Former Smokie captain and Fruitvale native Limbert anchors the Yale blue line

and is in his fourth year with the Bulldogs. The Penticton Vees forward Travis St. Denis scored the doubleovertime winner against the Merritt Centennials Sunday to extend the Vees record-setting pace to 36 consecutive wins. With less than a minute to go in the second OT, the Trail native finished a play from Mario Lucia for the 2-1 win, the closest any team has come to ending the streak. St. Denis has 32 goals, 45 assists for 77 points on the season, seventh in the BCHL.

LEISURE

Wife should not encourage daughter’s dependence Dear Annie: My wife and I have been married for 20 years. She has a grown daughter from her first marriage. I watched “Lori” grow up and love her as my own. My wife always has been fiercely defensive of Lori. I can’t say anything remotely negative or critical about her without risking a big argument. Even the suggestion of having Lori help around the house or clean up her room would cause a fight. Lori is a good kid, but she has never wanted for anything. My wife makes no secret of the fact that Lori comes first in her life. Lori is now in her early 20s and is a senior in college. Even though she is taking only two classes a week, she doesn’t have a job and is unmotivated to get one. My wife makes all kinds of excuses for her. Meanwhile, we pay all of her expenses, including her rent.

ANNIE’S

MAILBOX

Marcy Sugar & Kathy Mitchell

I’m disabled and on a small fixed income, and my wife is selfemployed. We struggle with our finances while Lori lives a carefree life. It is causing friction in our marriage. We tried counseling, but my wife refused to discuss anything related to Lori and quit going. Lori calls her mother every hour, and my wife encourages it. Lori has no other friends, and all of my wife’s attentions are focused on her daughter. I get very little. Is this normal behavior? -- Concerned for Our Future Dear Concerned: No, it’s not normal for a college-age daughter

to have no friends but Mom, and for a mother to encourage so much dependence. Such an enmeshed relationship is not only bad for your marriage. It also is crippling for Lori. Instead of helping her daughter learn self-reliance, Mom is being selfish by holding Lori so close that she deliberately prevents her from becoming an independent adult. We hope you can make your wife understand that this is poor parenting and in no one’s best interest. Dear Annie: What is the etiquette when you go to someone’s home and it’s overly hot in the summer and too cold in winter? A lot of my friends’ homes are uncomfortable for me, and I have been asking them to adjust their thermostats. A trusted pal recently told me she thought this was rude, especially when it doesn’t trouble other guests. She suggested I wear layers and tough

it out. What do you suggest I do? -- Too Hot or Too Cold Dear Too: Wear layers and tough it out. Etiquette says you don’t get to tell your friends how to heat and cool their homes. And if you are the only one discomfited by the temperature, the problem is you and not the thermostat. Please see your doctor for a checkup. Dear Annie: I had to smile at the letter from “Road Worrier.” When we started to get calls that our 92-yearold father was driving through stop signs and red lights and running into cars in the parking lot, we gave his car keys to his caregiver and said she’d take him where he needed to go. When he died, I sent his suit to the funeral home. I later got a call saying they found a car key in the pocket. Later, we spoke to Dad’s neighbor, who said when the

caregiver would go to church on Sundays, my father would come out of the house five minutes later, put his walker in the backseat of the car and drive off. He’d return 15 minutes before the caregiver came back.

We don’t know where he went for those four hours, but we’re glad nothing happened to him or anyone else. When they started to close his coffin, I put that key back in his pocket and told him, “OK, Dad, now you can

drive Mama all over heaven.” -- L.A. Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column. Please email your questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net.

This is bound to attract new introductions to you. Expect to meet someone unusual, perhaps in a group setting. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You’re restless!
