Video Express closing permanently CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter
Grand Forks’ Video Express on Central Avenue will be closing its doors next month due to declining customers and sales. “Basically we’ve had about a third of customers gravitate towards other means because there are so many options today that you can pick,” said owner Chris Smith. “There are other avenues that one can pick to receive entertainment, such as downloading (which a lot of people do), or Shaw Cable.” Smith said that Shaw’s new offering and range of films has also had a large impact. “They did that three months promotion over Christmas time for nothing to get people on board and that attracted a lot of people towards it because it’s easier for them and particularly when it’s free initially,” he explained. “Customers found it convenient even though they ultimately pay more.” The advent of technology has also offered more options, including online streaming and Netflix, a site that offers older films and television series online. Smith added that even cell phones are now equipped with a lot more options than previously. “It’s another percentage of customers gravitating to something a little bit easier,” Smith said. “In essence, over the last two years, about a third of our customer base has gravitated to other means and the two-thirds that we have left, although it’s a really good two-thirds, doesn’t keep our store afloat.” Despite the ongoing support, Smith explained that they tried to stretch it out as long as they could.
“The store closing not only means the business not being here or the service, but also a loss of jobs for staff,” he said. “We’re trying to keep it going for as long as we could, but in the end, the income coming in isn’t supporting the outgoing services. A third of the customers is a lot and we didn’t have that big of a margin, even when we scaled back.” In a town with a small population, if some customers leave, the impact is felt more than in a bigger store, Smith stated. “If it’s a larger town and it shrinks, there’s still a sufficient number of people who are coming in, but because it is a smaller town, to try and support a store this size is hard,” he said. Grand Forks resident Liz Martin is disappointed to hear about the closing of the video store. “I guess it is a sign of the times!” she said. “ I was a frequent visitor and enjoyed talking to the staff also. It will be quite a loss for our town, and now video lovers will have to invade the library, as they seem to have quite a good selection of movies.” Smith noted that the store will be open for another four to five weeks, but it depends on how long it takes to sell the inventory. Video Express first opened in Grand Forks in October 1994, and has been in its current location on Central Avenue for the last 10 years. “Thank you to everyone for their patronage and support over the last 18 years,” Smith concluded. “I’m very sad to be closing it and it’s not something that we wanted to do.” Though farther away, Video Express has stores in Castlegar, Creston and Armstrong.

Christina Lake man jailed for distributing child porn CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter
A Christina Lake man has been arrested and sentenced to one year in jail for possession and distribution of child pornography. His name has not yet been released by police. Grand Forks RCMP and the Integrated Child Exploitation (ICE) Team out of Vancouver worked together to obtain information to arrest the individual said
Grand Forks RCMP’s Staff Sgt. Jim Harrison. “It was a four-day investigation and everything came together really quickly,” he explained. “The individual was charged with possession of child pornography and distributing child pornography through the Internet.” He appeared in court in Grand Forks on June 4 and was sentenced to a year in jail. The Integrated Child Exploitation

Team found out the initial information, before police in Grand Forks also became involved in the investigation. “RCMP here (in Grand Forks) investigated for four days before we came up with all the information we needed to get a search warrant,” said Harrison. “Upon exercising the search warrant, we found evidence that we required and the evidence we knew was there. He was charged with those offences and sentenced the next day.” Harrison noted that there was anoth-
er case around a year ago that occurred across the border near Cascade, although he said the two cases were not related. “An American citizen was found in possession of a huge collection of CDs and DVDs of child pornography,” he added. “He was arrested and subsequently charged and imprisoned. This is something that our Integrated Child Exploitation Team surfaces through investigations and brings to the local detachment.”

SD51 discuss fire safety plans

CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter
School District 51 (SD51) discussed fire safety, the district’s plans for an upcoming financial audit, works orders throughout the year and the completion of nutrition rooms on June 12 at its last board meeting of the school year. Fire safety plans A template has been developed for Fire Safety Plans for the schools in SD51. “Each school is unique and needs to be looked at individually,” explained SD51 Secretary-treasurer Jeanette Hanlon. “We realized during the process that it was to our benefit to have our floor plans redrafted to ensure the changes made to the schools were updated.” Floor plans have been drafted and completion of the fire safety plans is aimed to be finished before the next school year. “Principals will be required to go over the plans with their staff in the fall,” said Hanlon. Financial audit Hanlon reported that June 30 is the school district’s fiscal year end. “That is the snapshot date for our financial statements,” she said. “On June 13, the auditors will come in for one day to do a preliminary audit. They will then return to the district for five full days from July 16 to 20.” The financial statements will be presented to the school board in September. Numeracy results Reading and writing assessments have been conducted by SD51 since the 2004-2005 school year. Grades participating in the assessment range from Kindergarten to Grade 9 and the assessment takes place twice a year to track changes throughout the year. For the 2008-2009 year, Grade 7 FSA (foundation skills assessment) results indicate a slight improvement in numeracy, writing, and reading, while Grade 4 FSA results indicate a slight improvement in numeracy, writing, and a slight decline in reading. For the 2009-2010 year, it was much more difficult to draw conclusions from FSA results, since participation rates for the district were down to 70 per cent. “Unfortunately, participation rates varied from school to school,” said SD51 Superintendent of Schools Michael Strukoff in his report. “Where participation rates were good, results showed improvements. Where participation rates were very low, school results were meaningless.” The 2010-2011 district participation rates were much better, with preliminary results for
News tips
Grade 4 indicating that reading continues to improve but writing took an unexpected drop. Preliminary results for Grade 7 indicate that reading is down and writing has plateaued. Carbon action report SD51 was approached by the Climate Action Secretariat after submitting its Carbon Neutral Action Report. “Climate Action asked if they could feature the Boundary Central Secondary School (BCSS) Sustainable Resource 12 program as a success story in their magazine, which highlights the results for the public sector,” said Hanlon. A copy will be posted on the SD51 website once they receive it, stated Hanlon. Work orders During a nine-month period, from Sept. 1, 2011 to May 31, 2012, the maintenance department has handled 1,616 work orders. “In the 12-month period of the previous year, Sept. 1, 2010 to Aug. 31, 2011, they completed 1,363 work orders,” said Hanlon. “Adding to their productivity is moving the maintenance staff back to five days per week and relocating the maintenance shop at Grand Forks Secondary School (GFSS) instead of Marlex (their company), which makes for less travel out to Marlex during the day.” The employees are also utilizing the equipment at GFSS in the woodshop. Nutrition rooms complete The nutrition rooms at Greenwood Elementary School and BCSS are complete. “Both schools are utilizing the space daily and are thrilled to have such a space,” said Hanlon. Okanagan Youth Team visits From May 14 to 16, the Okanagan Youth Team was in the Boundary district completing 11 stick game workshops in various schools. “The stick game presentations included singing and drumming and was well received by students and Aboriginal community members,” said Director of Instruction Maxine Ruzicka. “Thanks to Boundary Metis Community Association and BANAC for hosting a potluck dinner on the Tuesday evening for the four facilitators.” Inuit author reads to students Inuit author Michael Kusugak and his wife Geri provided a two-hour presentation to students in the school district from May 14 to 17. Kusugak is a full-time author and storyteller. “He enthralled students with his storytelling style,” said Ruzicka. “His session was followed by an Inuit artifact display. “This was a very busy week for our Aboriginal Education Teachers and schools,” added Ruzicka.

❚ ARSON
Fire bomb thrown at Midway RCMP CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter
A 43-year-old male from Grand Forks is in custody after an arson attempt on the Midway RCMP detachment. According to the RCMP, on June 18 at 12:10 a.m., one of its officers was working inside the Midway detachment office, heard a loud noise and saw a bright flash when something appeared to have hit the office window. Looking outside, the officer reportedly saw a male suspect pick up a flaming bottle, that is believed to be the item initially tossed at the detachment. The suspect also allegedly threw the flaming bottle at the back of a police vehicle that was unoccupied in front of the detachment. The flaming bottle broke and its contents spilled onto the police truck, setting the surface of the vehicle on fire. “The constable quickly exited the building, confronted the suspect before the suspect ran to a nearby
vehicle, that was left running, and fled the scene. The officer was able to get the licence plate number as the vehicle was fleeing and called for assistance to extinguish the fire,” explained Grand Forks RCMP Staff Sgt. Jim Harrison. “Unfortunately the officer’s were initially unable to locate the suspect or vehicle.” Further investigation was conducted and at approximately at 7:20 a.m., the individual, who is believed to be responsible for the attempted arson, was arrested. “Due to the quick actions of the Midway RCMP officers, there was only minor damage to the detachment building and the police vehicle,” said Harrison. “However, should the mixed cocktail had gone through the window and into the detachment office, a significant fire could have quickly started and resulted in potential injuries to the officers, as well as major damage and loss of the police damage.” The investigation is still underway.

Masked men invade home in Grand Forks CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter
On June 15, 2:01 a.m., police were called to a home invasion robbery on 68th Avenue. Police attended and determined that three people wearing masks and bandanas woke up two people sleeping in a camper behind a residence on 68th Avenue. The three masked people proceeded to smash all the windows on the camper and truck that it was on and demanded money. “Apparently they were given a quantity of money by the people
who were sleeping in the camper and they departed the scene,” said Grand Forks RCMP Staff Sgt. Jim Harrison. Harrison noted that three males were subsequently arrested later that morning. “A 27-year-old Grand Forks male, a 27-year-old male from Calgary, Alta., and a 27-year-old male from Christina Lake were all arrested and were charged with robbery with violence,” he said. They have been released on bail at this point.

❚ Our View
Sedentary lifestyle killed video store Everyone can be accused of using technology to make their lives more convenient. The payphone is becoming obsolete (if it hasn’t already) because of the cellular phone. Communication in the office has been affected by online messenger services as co-workers can communicate using their computers. There are some grocery stores in larger cities that have automated checkout stands. The train has become less fashionable with automobiles and airplanes and social media has had an impact on the dissemination of news. Streaming and downloading video has impacted video stores across North America with closures for stores of chains like Blockbuster and Rogers Video and despite being a smaller city, Grand Forks will not be immune as the Video Express on Central Avenue has announced that it will close permanently in about five weeks. The aforementioned streaming services, i.e. Shaw on Demand and Netflix, were part of the reason fewer customers were physically renting movies – movies can even be streamed to cell phones now. Nevertheless, people shouldn’t completely let their lives be run by technology and there are other benefits besides supporting local business. According to The Obesity in Canada report released in June 2011, there are somewhere between 24.3 to 25.4 per cent of Canadian adults considered obese while there are 8.6 per cent of children and youth between the ages of six and 17 years. Furthermore, the report said that obesity rates for both women and men roughly doubled between 1981 and 2007/09 for most age groups for adult and youth. Sedentary lifestyles – where there is a lot of sitting and less physical activity – are becoming more commonplace and with video on demand and streaming services, it’s easy to see why. People can “rent” a movie from the convenience of their own homes and some may see renting videos as an inconvenience as they have to physically get up and head to the store to rent and get up and head back to the store to return. But something as seemingly insignificant as going to rent a movie still requires physical action and is good for you. There are a lot of rural areas in Grand Forks and Christina Lake, so it might not be that convenient to get up and walk to the store but there are plenty of trails to use for exercise and doing so will be of great benefit.

Justice is served with rioter sentence I was once again reminded about how fast time flies when I saw on the news last week that 365 days had passed since the Stanley Cup Riots of 2011. While I wasn’t in Vancouver’s downtown core when the mayhem erupted, I was in town and could smell the smoke from across the Cambie Bridge – I planned my vacation with the hopes of seeing the Vancouver Canucks take it all and the loss to the Boston Bruins coupled with the rioters was iodine on a proverbial infected wound. Another item of note from the riots also occurred last week as Emmanuel Alviar one of the rioters, who turned himself in and pleaded guilty, was sentenced to a month in jail, 16 months probation, 160 hours of community service and he must send apology letters to Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson

and Police Chief Jim Chu. According to news reports, Alviar and his lawyer were expecting a conditional sentence – which would include no jail time – and was heard saying, “This is crazy!” when the sentence was handed down. Some say the sentence was harsh, given that Alviar had no prior criminal record and turned himself in, but given how the Canadian and B.C. justice system sometimes doles out justice, it is a breath of fresh air. All too often we hear about people charged with criminal acts who get off “too easy” with
sentences that are deemed too light. Yes Alviar had no prior criminal history and yes he turned himself in but consider his actions the night of the riots. He wasn’t jaywalking or just standing around and watching as the vandalism and fires began. According to reports, he rocked a car, kicked garbage at another car that was burning and smashed the windows of the Telus building with a stick. It would be understandable if someone who had done less got off with a conditional sentence but Alviar was in the thick of the violence. It could be that the judge wants to make an example of the resident of Surrey, B.C. or he wants to set precedence but either way, jail time for the rioter is just right.

FASD awareness
Gilpin mudslide and B.C. politics
Editor: I would like to bring attention to Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD). This brain injury affects many people in our community and around the world. FASD is an umbrella term used to cover four different brain injuries, FAS, pFas, ARND and ARBD but I would like to address them as a whole. FASD is 100 per cent preventable as it is caused by drinking alcohol during pregnancy and is a life-long disability, as it kills the developing brain cells of the unborn. There is NO safe amount of alcohol in pregnancy and not all people with FASD have all the primary symptoms. Behavioural studies show that children born with FASD often exhibit impulsive behaviour, are easily distracted, not able to integrate information from the body and are often oversensitive to stimuli. Children with this brain injury often have difficulty with social skills, as they are often developmentally younger than their chronological age, and often appear irresponsible. They have difficulty processing information and have difficulty remembering, and need constant repetition to learn. It is very difficult for them to move from one activity to the next. These brain injuries can cause difficulty with communication and language, generalizing and abstract thinking, planning and judgment. Some are seen as lazy, liars, immature, thieves, resistant and unco-operative. Looking past these behaviours, one often finds that they really have difficulty with things we take for granted in our day-to-day processing of life. When we reframe it, it is not that these children or adults won’t, it is they can’t due to their primary symptoms of FASD. Individuals with FASD have many strengths and it is important to identify and build on these strengths. Children with FASD learn best from multi-sensory and concrete approaches. In parenting and teaching these children, we must accept that we need to repeat, re-teach, review and remind. Change the environment, not the child. FASD is very real and indiscernible by sight. Please remember not to judge these people as stupid, dumb, irresponsible, ignorant or bad. Their brain injury is invisible but very real. Jacqueline Plamondon, Grand Forks
Editor: Re: Report says Gilpin mudslide was an accident (story in June 6 issue of the Grand Forks Gazette)) Gazette This is in response to the article on the Gilpin Creek mudslide. It made us aware of the damage that cattle can do when they have access to our rivers and streams. The present legislation either: 1. Isn’t adequate to protect public lands or 2. Isn’t being enforced. It has been noted lately that range plans aren’t easily understood and/ or aren’t followed up on. Also, it is apparent that the recommendations for improved range management practices are often ignored by ranchers and they continue to do so without apparent penalties. New water management practices were promised for 2012 by the B.C. Liberal government after a long public consultation process. Our community is reminding the Liberals of the commitment they have made regarding these issues. We want the NDP to update the water management next year, early in their mandate.

❚ LOCAL BUSINESS
Closure of store tragic Editor: Recently, I did my usual thing and went to the Video Express store to get my two-forone movie special. I was met outside the store by one of the employees giving me the news of the store’s closure. I was quite surprised at my reaction to this news; I felt very sad indeed as this little store had become a big part of my life. The staff had always been very friendly and I had been writing updates of new movies for The Gazette, Gazette, so it had been a very interesting part of my life. This is no doubt a sign of our advanced technical times, with many other avenues of acquiring movies, too many to mention here. I think it is a shame to lose such an individual outlet with good staff, doing their very best to accommodate our movie wishes. It seems
❚ OPINION that in modern life, we need talk to no one to get our wishes met. I for one, much prefer the social interaction at places of business. It makes my day a lot brighter chatting with employees, however I guess I must move with the times and get on with it. I wish the staff all the very best for their futures and a great big thank you to all of them for their years of devoted service to our community. You will be missed! Liz Martin, Grand Forks
❚ BORDER CROSSING
Power trip at border Editor: On the evening of Sunday, June 3, I had the pleasure of spending 3.5 hours at the Buck Board Saloon in Danville, Wash. with two other couples, one occupied my car and the other drove their own. I was the designated driver and had one coffee and one tea. Returning to the border, I was asked how long we had been down and where we went. I replied honestly and was commanded in to do a breathalyzer test. I had nothing of an alcoholic nature to drink. I presented the border person with the facts that I did not smell like alcohol, look drunk or act drunk and asked why I had been brought in. He said that 3.5 hours in a bar was enough reason. I blew a 0.00. He gave me back my keys. I asked him for his ID and told him I would be filing a complaint. He refused to give me my passport back until I got back into my car and he could hand it to me through the window. Petty, insulting and an exercise in control. “I own you!” he was saying and I can make you jump like a puppet if I want. Most of the officers at Carson crossing treat you with courtesy and respect. But I feel there are persons at this border crossing who have an agenda of their own and will use their position to further this agenda. They may not like your lifestyle and will do whatever they can to change that, or to at least convey to you that you are not welcome at “their” border crossing. These people see the world going to hell in a handbasket and they see you as part of the problem and themselves as the saviours. If you believe you have been abused at the Carson/Danville crossing, or you have not been treated with the dignity you deserve as a Canadian citizen, please take a moment to provide the details and email them to borderabuse@yahoo.ca. Phil McGirr, Grand Forks
Giving peace a chance There was a time when we talked about the “two solitudes” in Canada, referring to a divide between French ALEX and English Canada. ATAMANENKO Although differences still exist between our two founding cultures, they are now more often celebrated than not. Over the past few years, however, I have seen two new solitudes emerge. Let’s call them “Neo-Conservative” and “Progressive.” Though we may speak the same language, we really do not understand each other. I notice this in the House of Commons, particularly. There are major differences in how these two new solitudes perceive the world and I would like to discuss these over my next two columns. One solitude sees for Canada a role on the world stage that is a significant shift from the values that our country has traditionally represented. The current Conservative government wants Canada to become a proud military nation that makes major contributions to war efforts in areas such as Afghanistan and Libya. This focus means that our military must be equipped and trained to engage in more combat missions throughout the world, usually at the side of the U.S. in NATO-led missions. The latest military technology, like the F-35 first strike jets, needs to be in place to fit into this version. The other solitude believes that Canada has lost its leadership role in world peacekeeping and that we should return to our role of working within the United Nations and concentrate on making defence a priority for our armed forces. This change would require that Canada leave Afghanistan and decline other missions with NATO, an organization originally set up in 1949 to protect Europe from communist aggression. Canada should play a greater role as a broker in peaceful settlements in the Middle East, Africa and other areas of conflict. Military purchases should provide the equipment to get the job done and keep our troops, and civilians, safe. This past November, I introduced a private member’s bill to create a federal Department of Peace. Bill C-373 passed first reading in the House of Commons last Nov. 30. The work of a Department of Peace would be to strengthen non-military means of peace-making by developing policies and programs that promote national and international conflict prevention, non-violent intervention, mediation and peaceful conflict resolution. Bill C-373 outlines wide-ranging objectives for a Department of Peace that would tackle domestic and international responsibilities in the areas of human security and education. The notion that there can be peace in the world may be a utopian ideal but each generation owes it to the next to make a dedicated attempt to get as close to it as humanly possible. – Alex Atamanenko is a Member of Parliament for the B.C.

NEWS ❚ CITY PARK
Panels to be added at campsite CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter
The City of Grand Forks campgrounds in City Park will soon see the addition of panels separating each of the stalls. “What it’s meant to do is give each of the stalls a little more privacy and to enhance it a bit more to make it attractive to visitors,” explained Coun. Gary Smith. “There will be two panels for the shorter sports, with three for the longer rigs.” Smith pointed out that this project came together quickly. “Money has been spent on the infrastructure, the electrical, the sewer hook ups and all that stuff, so all this campground really needs is a facelift,” he said. “If we’re going to charge people to come and camp here, we want to make the experience a good one.” There are 21 stalls available at the City Park campgrounds and is based on a pay-per-night system. Coun. Bob Kendel noted that having sewer lines beside the picnic table isn’t the most pleasant option. “The council thinks it needs to be cleaned up and made more attractive with an enhancement program,” he said. “We’re working to get some signage done to direct the traffic off the highway and hopefully have them stop here.” Kendel added this is part of the effort to promote Grand Forks. “It’s been an objective for the city to get some traffic off the road and we need to make an attractive place for them if we get them off the road to stop and to have them come back,” he said. “We don’t want to come here and then think, ‘Oh my gosh, I’ll never come here again.’ By making things prettier, people will stay longer and tell their friends.” Smith stated the upgrades should be completed by the end of June.

School District 51 (SD51) has been working alongside multiple organizations to create the District Literacy Plan for the region. Sheila Dobie, who works for the Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy (CBAL), gave a presentation about this year endeavours at a school board meeting on June 12. “I’m very excited about this current plan for a number of reasons,” she said. “We’ve used goals around community awareness, evaluation, and planning and programming. It’s integrated a lot of great partners that include Boundary Family Services, Interior Health, the school district, the libraries, individual citizens, cities, Sunshine Valley Living Society – a whole array of folks who have a commitment to life-long learning.” The District Literacy Plan began in 2008 as a process to engage the community with literacy and learning. “Next year, one of the main priorities is to continue with what we are doing, do a couple of new things but also spend the year getting the community ready to actually pull together a new planning process,” Dobie added. “We’re going to have a full day that will be facilitated where we invite the community together and to create a plan.” Dobie noted that the Literacy Advisory Committee will be deciding whether to keep previous projects that have worked or to start with something new. The community meeting will occur sometime in February. “We are also going to be doing a health literacy event that’s going

to be a partnership with Interior Health,” she said. “We’re hoping to make that a fairly round participant kind of activity.” The Boundary Early Years Committee will also be working with the Literacy Advisory Committee on a Screen Smart program, which teaches families about screen time (such as computers and television) and engaging in physical activity. Dobie pointed out that for CBAL, their programs included the Community Learning Place, which is the adult literacy drop-in every Tuesday at library, a special program for homeschoolers, and regular programming at the library such as Alphabet Soup, Mother Goose, and regular adult programs (the one-toone learning that will get matched to tutors). There is also the Christmas Books Under Every Tree and the Books For Babies, which is a book given to every baby when they’re born and is connected with Interior Health. “We do a fair amount of work with people with special needs,” Dobie said, adding that CBAL will be focusing on more collaboration for next year. The District Literacy Plan is revised each year to determine whether there needs to be changes or not.

Doc on corporate involvement in charity fundraising coming to Gem Theatre SPOTLIGHT FILMS Submitted
On Tuesday, June 26, Spotlight Films will be presenting Pink Ribbons Inc., the first hard hitting documentary Spotlight has brought to Grand Forks since The Corporation. There is little doubt that cause marketing may contain elements of the predatory and mercenary. Such is the case with the Pink Ribbons campaign for breast cancer, according to Lea Pool’s expose, which addresses the rise of corporate involvement in fundraising for charities. This timely, powerful, and profoundly troubling film opens in San Francisco as thousands of people prepare for a grueling two-day run to raise money for a cure for breast cancer. All the participants are in very high spirits, from the sense of community and the belief that they are engaged in a righteous cause. The film progresses through the history of breast cancer treatment, the rise of corporate fundraising and the development of the industry and culture surrounding the disease. As we witness the growth of fundraising bodies and the presentation of breast cancer campaigns in the

media each returns to the run, it makes the effort seem all the more problematic. This story of devastating realism focuses on the increased involvement of corporations, the “ownership” of the campaigns and the impact it has had on real charities. According to the film, the undue emphasis on awareness and the search for a cure has skewed the types of research being done, for example, there is a lack of data on the cause of breast cancer. A central point of this ferocious and revealing film, written by Barbara Ehrenreich and Samantha King, is that the disease is a poster child for a variation of disaster capitalism awash with corporate profit and thick with hypocrisy. Lea Pool’s achievements in film date back to 1984 and include A Woman in Transit, to The Last Escape in 2010. Pink Ribbons Inc. is produced by The National Film Board of Canada and will be shown at the Gem Theatre in Grand Forks at 7:30 p.m. As we head into our ninth year, Spotlight Films would like to acknowledge, with gratitude, the invaluable support of our sponsors and supporters.

UBC student and Grand Forks native Jordan Andrews will be using a nephelometer to measure particulate matter in the air over the summer.
KARL YU PHOTO
KARL YU Gazette Editor
The City of Grand Forks has hired a post-secondary student for the summer to study air quality in the Grand Forks air shed. UBC student and physics major Jordan Andrews, who is from Grand Forks originally, will be driving around the air shed in a hybrid vehicle to measure air quality with the use of a nephelometer, an instrument that measures particulate matter in the air. “Jordan’s going to be running around the valley and we’re going to be doing four days a week of sampling throughout the air shed,” said Wayne Kopan, city manager of environmental and building construction services. “We’re hoping if we can set up at the Farmers’ Market, to do weekly testing at the market to see how the traffic on Central Avenue affects the air quality and at the end of the day, see where our heaviest concentrations are and what the sources are.” Andrews admitted to not knowing a lot about nephelometers before being hired but has gotten up to speed as he went to the University of Victoria (UVic) for some training – the university is also loaning the nephelometer to the city. “I spent about seven hours there with Dr.
Eleanor Setton and she showed me what it was, how to use it. We went over how to get the laptop ready, we went for a drive around Victoria, she showed me how to put everything together and maps together,” said Andrews. In terms of things he’s learned Andrews said he’s surprised by the air quality. “Grand Forks doesn’t have the greatest air. Considering how many people live here, it should be better. It’s due to the fact that we’re in a ‘bowl,’ more of a valley, and the air can settle around here and I’m just doing my best to find out why it’s higher than it should be,” he said. “I think (over the summer) we’re going to see where the biggest sources of particulate matter are going to be. I think we’re going to be surprised to see it might not be Roxul, like a lot of people think, and that farms are going to have a big impact and it might not be what you can see that’s causing a lot of the problems,” Andrews explained. “The stuff we’re looking for is not visible, that’s why it’s so bad for you.” The city says that once the study is completed, the data will help the city’s environment committee decide on what the city can do to maintain acceptable air quality. Andrews is employed through a Canada Summer Jobs grant.

Amy Loewan’s Lantern, as the title entails, is an octagonal structure resembling a giant lantern.

The exhibitions Illuminating Peace by Alberta artist Amy Loewan (curated by Robert Freeman and Linda Jansma) and Too Slow to Move by Vivi Harder of Nelson (curated by Helen Sebelius) were first presented together in September 2011 at the Kootenay Gallery in Castlegar, B.C. Amy Loewan’s artistic practice centres on creating work as a vehicle for personal transformation and promoting human understanding. She is dedicated to peace building and her career as a visual artist provides her with an avenue to carry out that task. For the past 10 years, she has been focusing on exploring site-specific installation work, aimed at integrating western and eastern sensibilities. The centre of Illuminating Peace is Lantern, an octagonal structure resembling a gigantic lantern, which is lit from within and hangs above a field of wheat. The eight panels of A Peace Project (on loan from the Alberta Foundation for the Arts) hang horizontally above a band of Jasmine rice. Long Scroll hangs vertically and occupies the height of the gallery. This exhibit also contains an interactive element for viewer participation. Handwritten calligraphy and computergenerated typography, printed on strips of rice
paper, are used to weave together eastern and western languages, to intertwine world cultures and religions, representing eight values vital in human relationships: compassion, kindness, respect, understanding, patience, tolerance, gentleness and forgiveness. More than 35 world languages are interwoven into this work. In this age of distraction, we are constantly bombarded by noise, both visual and auditory. The series of paintings by Vivi Harder titled Too Slow To Move encourages us to slow down, take a breath, and re-focus. Curator Helen Sibelius alluded to our need for slowing down in her statement regarding Vivi’s work: “Too Slow To Move is, in a sense, an antidote to the speed that defines contemporary life. The calming effect of repeated square formats and subtle colour combinations, and the unmistakable traces of the artist’s hand, quietly jolts us out of 21st century frenzy. Favouring the personal, intuitive and spiritual, Harder moves away from the immediacy of intellectualizing life in a ‘just in time’ culture. It is with the former that she offers her invitation to decelerate, or even stop, for a moment when we can imagine another way of being.” Both Loewan and Harder’s exhibitions will be on display until Saturday, September 1.

Insightful guy talk makes Man on the Train remake enjoyable ❚ Martin’s Movie Picks LIZ MARTIN
Hello moviegoers, this w e e k ’ s movie is quite the unusual m o v i e called Man
on the Train. It is a new release and is a remake of a 2002 crime thriller by Patrice Leconte and stars Donald Sutherland and Larry Mullen Jr. Sutherland needs no introduction to movie lovers but Mullen Jr. was not a familiar name to me. I looked up Mullen Jr. on the internet and found out his ancestry is Irish and he is also a musician with the band U2. Not deterred by this, I brought the movie home and found it to be well-acted and very surprising. The story is unusual as it depicts a friendship that grows between two very unlikely personalities. Into a small American town comes a mysterious criminal (Mullen Jr.) and he has plans to rob the local bank. He bumps into Sutherland, a local poetry professor, retired, and is cordially invited to stay with him for a short while. Mullen Jr., the robber, begins to fear for the professor Sutherland’s safety but this is not to be the case.
The professor wishes he had done some daring things in his life and the younger one wished he had not. They would both like to trade places with the other. Their conversations are lively and interesting, opening new avenues of discussion for both. There are a few others in the movie but the two men take the lions’ share, as this story is about their budding friendship. It leads slowly to the bank heist where some of the robber’s friends are abetting him and I will not tell you how this movie ends as it is quite a surprise. With only two main characters, and very little female input, this is a rare gem. I personally like to see men talking deeply to each other; women have been doing this for centuries, now it would be good to hear the men doing the same. Donald Sutherland’s role is that of a wordy, shy rather charming older man and I must say he is very convincing in this role. Perhaps I will see Larry Mullen Jr. in more movies, as this is the first time I have ever seen him in one. Together, they team for one very unusual interesting film. It stays far away from Hollywood theatrics and glamour, uses pure talent, wonderful to see. I would end by saying this is a character-acting movie, a bit like Carnage where the acting takes precedent over everything else. Definitely worth watching people. – Liz Martin is a film critic for the Grand Forks Gazette, movie lover, cello player and happy retiree.

GFI baseball tournament alums taken in 2012 MLB draft GERRY FOSTER Submitted
2012 Grand Forks International baseball tournament (GFI) all-star pitcher David Otterman was drafted in the seventh round by the Milwaukee Brewers in the annual Major League Baseball first-year player draft recently. He was the second of 26 Canadians to be taken and not much time was wasted in getting his professional career underway, as he has already signed a contract. The big left-hander played three years at the University of British Columbia (UBC) and is from Coquitlam, B.C. His college coach, Terry McKaig said, “He now gets to realize his childhood dream of playing professional baseball”, and added, “A very exciting day for David and his family, and the UBC baseball program.” We can add that the GFI family is also proud and thrilled. The following day, the Boston Red Sox selected another UBC athlete and former GFI participant, Keaton Briscoe, in the 24th round of the amateur draft. Keaton played second base for the Thunderbirds. He is from North Vancouver, B.C. and batted .318 in 100 career games in college. This brings to 19 the number of UBC players who have been taken in the MLB draft since that baseball program was re-started in 1997. This was not the end of things for GFI alumni, as two others went in last week’s amateur draft. Lewis Clark (LC) State’s Austin Pentecost, a senior right-hander, went in the 29th round to the Chicago Cubs and his teammate Luke Goodgion was grabbed in round 33 by the Tampa Bay Rays. Pentecost became the first LC State player to

be drafted by the Cubs and the Lewis Clark State baseball program now has at least one player drafted from all 30 of the current Major League franchises. “It feels good, kind of like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders,” Pentecost said about being drafted. “I talked to a few scouts the night before and they were telling me that I’d probably get picked somewhere between 16 to 30, but I was really surprised by the Cubs because I hadn’t really talked to them all season.” Goodgion pitched a complete game shutout for the Lewiston Truckers in last year’s Grand Forks International tourney while David Otterman also tossed seven scoreless innings in a game for Team Canada. Fans in attendance last year, and in previous years, were privileged to watch them first in Grand Forks, along with Keaton Briscoe and Austin Pentecost. Now they will display their talents in professional leagues around North America.

Q. A.
I have a renter I need to evict but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not sure how to proceed.
Once you enter into a tenancy agreement both the tenant and the landlord have conditions and rights that must be respected. The tenant is entitled to quiet enjoyment of the property and can only be evicted for cause. Rent cannot be withheld for any reason. A tenant must respect and protect the landlords property and it must be maintained and returned to the landlord in at least the same condition as when the tenancy started. If damage is occurring, utilities are disconnected or the property is not being maintained then these as well as some other issues may constitute cause. With the exception of withholding rent the tenant must be warned in writing that they are not complying with the terms of the tenancy agreement and after receiving the warning and not complying a notice to end tenancy may be served. This process can become complicated and has to be followed according to the Residential Tenancy Act of British Columbia. At the end of the day the landlord still owns the property and has allowed the tenant to use it in a respectful manner and always has the right of ownership and inspection under the Act.

Q. A.
Given the upturn in the economy is it time to look at more risk in our portfolio?
While no one really knows where the economy or markets are headed, these times are always a good opportunity to review your portfolio and adjust your risk tolerance. If you have been sitting on the side lines, it may be time to start dollar cost averaging back into funds in your portfolio. It will be important to discuss how much income you will need over the coming years and if you will need access to any significant portion of your portfolio. If you have a long time horizon, then more risk can be taken in a portfolio. There will still be bumps along the way and surprises can come from anywhere on any given day that will increase the volatility in the markets. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to keep in mind that, although many years have passed since our last meltdown, peoples risk tolerance will decrease dramatically when we are in those periods of uncertainty. Sit down with your advisor and reassess your risk tolerance and your income needs. It will only be then that you can truly answer that question.

Q
Is it better to purchase a Term Life insurance policy to protect my loan or mortgage, or to insure with the financial institution that holds my loan?
A
This is a question that tends to leave clients confused about how to insure a loan or mortgage. Some people are not aware that they have an option to purchase their own Term Life insurance policy to cover their mortgage instead of purchasing what the bank is offering. Both types of policies will protect you in the event of death, however, the life insurance policy offered through the bank is completely owned and controlled by the bank. A term life insurance purchased through a life agent is owned and controlled by you. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mortgageâ&#x20AC;? insurance protects only one thing â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the amount owing on the mortgage. If you were to pass away, the mortgage gets paid. The value of a term life insurance product does not decrease as your mortgage decreases. So for example, if your mortgage is $100,000 today and you purchased a term life insurance policy to cover that amount, 20 years from now your mortgage may be down to $30,000. Your term life insurance policy remains at $100,000. Upon death, the family would receive the full $100,000. They could then use $30,000 to pay off the balance owing on the mortgage and have $70,000 left to invest or use for other financial needs that may exist. The flexibility and freedom of term life policy not only protects you now but also gives you and your family protection for the future needs that may arise.

Q.
I had a disc removed between L-4 & L-5. The vertebrae has fused itself naturally, but I do have neck, back, hip and shoulder issues. Can I still seek Chiropractic care or will it harm the fusion? A number of Years ago, research was done in the United States regarding this very problem. One hospital did low back surgery with no chiropractic adjustments to the low back spine. The second hospital did low back surgery with chiropractic care to the low back immediately following, i.e. within a few days. The result was that those patients receiving chiropractic care healed better and had better overall results than those that did not. Therefore there should be no problem treating the rest of your spine with chiropractic therapy. Just be sure you tell your chiropractor that you have had low back surgery.

There is a lot of work that goes on behind the scenes in order to put on the Pharmasave Christina Lake Triathlon. GAZETTE FILE PHOTO
CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter
Now in its eighth year, the Pharmasave Christina Lake Triathlon has continued to generate community support from participants, volunteers and spectators. Taking place this June 24, the triathlon is a 750 metre swim, 20 kilometre bike ride and five kilometre run. For the Kids Sprint, it is a 100 metre swim, six kilometre bike ride and two kilometre run. John Mackey, director of recreation and facilities and an organizer for the triathlon, said the idea to create a triathlon came about after a trip to Wasa, B.C. “It’s a nice compact event,” he said. “After driving back from Wasa, I told the staff about it and said, ‘We could do is.’” Mackey stated after looking at Christina Lake and its beach, they looked at the various bike courses they could create as well. The process to get the triathlon approved begins in early January. “We fire off all the letters to the Ministry of Highways, the Ministry of Parks and everyone else,” explained Mackey. “We’ve had some years where even when we applied six months in advance, we’ve come close to the day of the events and the permits are just arriving. It’s never stopped us from carrying on because we get good co-operation from the company who does the maintenance of the park.” A portion of Highway 3 is blocked for the bike portion of the event, so there is also a professional flagging company for that, added Mackey. The local applications are straightforward and we get a lot of support for the event, he added. “The fencing comes from Phoenix Ski Hill, and the signs and posts from the City of Grand
Forks and Emcon,” Mackey said. “We have a great group of supporters and sponsors.” Over the years, participation levels have been up and down, Mackey stated. “The first year was for adults only, and the second year we added the elementary school kids, for anyone 12 and under, and created a Kids Sprint,” he said. “We have maxed out a couple of years.” In its first year with a three-person committee that organized the event, the triathlon was limited to 100 people. Since then, it has grown to include 150 participants, and 50 to 70 volunteers who help out on the actual day of the event. “It’s a great challenge and all the fitness benefits. You can swim, you can run, you can bike,” Mackey pointed out. “You can do it in a team format, so you can be a team of two or three, and cover off the events. We’ve seen people being in a member of team to completing the entire triathlon on their own. Our job is to offer opportunities for fun. We draw national-ranked people to the event, to the 70-year-old who wants to try it for the first time.” Mackey pointed out that the triathlon includes a challenging bike course because riders have to climb the steep hill west of Christina Lake, and repeat that hill four times. “It’s not a long distance, but you have to go up that hill four times, but it’s a beautiful location,” he added. “It’s a low-key community event that has a lot of community support.” However, Mackey also noted that it’s not just a participant sport. “It’s a great spectator sport,” he concluded. “There’s nothing greater for participants than having the community cheer them on.” For more information or to register, contact Grand Forks Recreation at 250-442-2202.

Notice of Passing JACOB â&#x20AC;&#x153;BUDâ&#x20AC;? DYCK 1933 to 2012 Bud was born at Swift Current, Saskatchewan, on January 22, 1933, and passed away suddenly on June 12, 2012, at Grand Forks, B.C. Bud is predeceased by both of his parents; brothers, Henry and Fred; and also by his son, Dale. He is survived by his wife, Ria; daughter, Diana (Dennis); grandsons, Darrel and Daniel; and granddaughter, Hailey; friends, Patsy Habb from Saskatoon and Marg Elias from Swift Current. Bud enjoyed spending time RVing, ďŹ shing and touring on his quad. There will be no service at his request. The family would especially like to thank the staff at Annesely and the acute care nurses of Boundary Hospital for their excellent care of him. Gwen Ziprick of Alternatives Funeral and Cremation Services looked after the arrangements.
Notice of Passing Robert Lorne Pfeifer â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bob the Barberâ&#x20AC;? June 2, 1938 June 16, 2012 Bob passed away at Boundary Hospital after a short battle with lung cancer. In Dadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s words, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve lived a full life.â&#x20AC;? His life began on a farm at Saskatchewan, he grew up at Surrey Centre, married, had four children, lived at Prince George and the greater Vancouver area until moving to Grand Forks over 30 years ago. Dadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life was adventurous; he started out working for the highways department, he barbered, built boats/houseboats, scuba dived (salvage/recreational), log salvaged, ďŹ shed commercially, and then gave his all to develop a piece of riverfront property on the Kettle River at Grand Forks. Dad was an active sports enthusiast in his younger years and appreciated â&#x20AC;&#x153;the game of sportâ&#x20AC;? to the end. Dad retired a year ago from 30+ years of barbering at Grand Forks. His passion was the guitar, singing tunes that stirred ones emotions and painting. He is survived by his four children: Shelly (Lou), Jody (Hugh), Tammy and Jeff (Tammy); his mother, Anne Busby who currently resides at Grand Forks; ďŹ ve grandchildren; two great-grandchildren; brother, Norm (Sue); and sister, Myrna (Doug). Grand Forks Funeral Home had care of arrangements. The family would like to thank his family physician and the Boundary Hospital nursing staff for their compassionate care. Thanks for the memories Dad/Pa.
