Prime Minister Stephen Harper has rejected suggestions his government is considering pushing through the proposed Northern Gateway oil pipeline across northern British Columbia. Harper was asked about Enbridge Inc.’s pipeline project at a stop in Vancouver on Aug. 6, and the frequent accusation he has already decided it is in

the national interest for it to proceed. “I’ve been very clear that decisions on these kinds of projects are made through an independent evaluation conducted by scientists into the economic costs and risks that are associated with the project. “I think that’s the only way governments can handle controversial projects of this manner, to ensure things are evaluated on an independent basis, scientifically, and not

simply on political criteria.” Harper told reporters he has spoken with B.C. Premier Christy Clark and other premiers about pipelines, but those conversations are private. It’s his first public comment since a dispute erupted between Clark and Alberta Premier Alison Redford in July over Clark’s demand for more revenues. “I’m not going to get into an argument or discussion about how we divide hypothetical revenues,” Harper said.

He did emphasize that in general, it is important for Canada to diversify its trade and open up new markets in Asia. The federal government is planning “huge investments” to improve environmental protection for shipping resource material, but it won’t favour any individual project, he said.

By Diana Forster Aug. 18 was the hottest day in memory for those entering the 55th Bridge Lake Fair (BLF) at Interlakes Hall. This may have affected baking entries, which were down, although overall entries were up three per cent, and entrants numbered 10 per cent more than last year. Garden produce suffered from our appalling spring, and provided fewer entries than usual. There were five container contest entries, for plants grown in any old bucket or pail. The perennial first place winner was Elaine Kisby, who won the Horse Lake Garden Centre $50 gift certificate. Arlene Henzel was second and won $25 from La Petite Diane Antique Restoration, while Sharon Stewart won $10 from Dancoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Horse Trimming for third. Three people correctly guessed there were 78 candies in the jar, so a draw determined the jar went to Gavin Ma. Three trophies were awarded to the same people for the second consecutive year. The Art Grange Memorial Trophy for Best of Show Collection of Garden Vegetables, donated by Patricia Spencer, went to Michelle Probert. The Aunt Norma Memorial Trophy for Hi-Point Preserving, donated by the Kisby Family, went to Helen Zander (33 points). Quesnelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s David Carlyle won the Rhu Castle Cup for Best of Show Wine - a blackberry merlot.

WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 2 TO 8, 2012

RENEE LOZEAU

THE LUCKIEST SIGNS THIS WEEK: LEO, VIRGO, AND LIBRA.

Renee says: “I like CaribooRadio.Com because you play awesome local music and have the best DJs! I can hear all about local events and I like the music Chris Adams plays in the morning.

ARIES

You will probably have a mountain of work to cope with this week. Even though this is a rather stressful situation, it will benefit you by bringing in some extra income.

Renee won free lunch at “Cariboo Diner” in 100 Mile House B.C. CONGRATULATIONS!

TAURUS

You’re feeling quite dynamic this week, and there’s a good chance that you will find a great way to treat yourself. Your friends will persuade you to take part in some interesting activities. GEMINI

Stress is in the stars for you. Be sure to take a step back now and then in order to relax and see things from a more positive perspective. CANCER

Your friends may include you in a weekend of relaxation, or perhaps your life partner will suggest a romantic interlude. Either way, you will enjoy some sort of getaway. LEO

You will be confronted with some big responsibilities that will improve your career prospects. You can expect a few hours of overtime. VIRGO

Don’t be surprised if your boss invites you to take a training course that will open the door to a more interesting job. A trip is also on the horizon. LIBRA

September is a month of many changes: the start of a new school year for students, and a return to work for others. This is a good occasion for you to reflect on your lifestyle and think about any changes you’d like to make. SCORPIO

Even though you are not always comfortable in a crowd, the responsibility of organizing a large-scale event for lots of people will fall to you. Be confident in your abilities and try to enjoy the task.

HOW TO PLAY: Fill in the grid so that every row, every column and every 3x3 box contains the numbers 1 through 9 only once. Each 3x3 box is outlined with a darker line. You already have a few numbers to get you started. Remember: You must not repeat the numbers 1 through 9 in the same line, column or 3x3 box.

SAGITTARIUS

You will end up with a lot of work on your plate, consisting mainly of small details that need urgent handling. Don’t hesitate to ask members of your family for help at home. CAPRICORN

Someone close to you will invite you to sign up for a very special weekly activity. Take them up on it, as it will help you stay fit for the winter.

FOR ANSWER: See the Sept. 5th FREE PRESS Puzzle No 365

AQUARIUS

You don’t much feel like leaving the house. Take this time indoors to fix up the little love nest you’ve always dreamed of. PISCES

You might find yourself on the go more than usual this week. You’ll also spend a lot of time either talking on the telephone or using social networks on the Web.
