specifics. “We’re all struggling to adapt to a changing world. Some of us realize changes will take some time, but we also realize the status quo is not a possibility,” she commented. Modernization and consolidation is needed, but MacDonald said she’s concerned that some want to toss out the baby with the bathwater. “The co-op has a plan that involves the sale of some of its properties in order to help finance modernization of others. “Yet, some growers don’t seem prepared to make a commitment.

A long-time Kelowna tree fruit grower has called for the removal of B.C. Fruit Growers’ Association president Kirpal Boparai of Kelowna. Glenn Cross put a resolution to members of the Okanagan Tree Fruit Cooperative at its annual general meeting Tuesday afternoon in Peachland that the co-op packinghouse immediately stop funding the BCFGA until the executive removes Boparai from the board. The resolution was adopted and will be carried forward to the co-op board for its consideration. However, it’s not clear whether the BCFGA executive can remove a director. Fees to cover membership in the BCFGA are levied at the co-op, although there is no governance relationship between the two organizations. All co-op members are also members of the grower lobby group. Cross said he put the resolution forward because he doesn’t feel Boparai represents his best interests.

Newcomers join packinghouse board Two long-time co-op board members were overturned in their bids for re-election to the board of directors of the Okanagan Tree Fruit Cooperative at its annual general meeting in Peachland Tuesday afternoon. Sam DiMaria, representing growers in the northern half of the valley was voted out in favour of newcomer Kamlesh Parmar. Both are Kelowna growers. Jack Machial, of Oliver, was outvoted by Gordon Hahn, also of Oliver, to represent growers in the southern half of the valley in

the election. Both DiMaria and Machial had served on the board since 2009 and they were the only two board members up for re-election. Members of the board will elect a president and two vicepresidents from those elected, in the coming week. It was estimated 200 to 300 members attended. The United Nations has declared 2012 the International Year of Cooperatives with the comment that cooperatives drive the economy, are resilient to the global economic crisis, respond to social change and are ser-

ious, successful businesses creating jobs. Although the co-op board did not open the meeting to news media, following the annual general meeting, co-op member Denise MacDonald, of Summerland, said one of the big issues discussed was the change in grower contracts with the coop this year and whether growers should be permitted to sell their commercial varieties of apples and pears anywhere they wish, or whether they should have to commit to shipping through the co-op. As well, she said there were many calls for change, without

The Lake Country senior who fatally hit a teenage girl with his truck one night in 2010 was overcome with emotion Wednesday when offered a chance to speak at his sentencing. George Kozub, 82, broke down in tears as he told all who convened for his final court date that he was sorry for his part in the tragedy that killed teenager Josie Evans. Moments later, a provincial court judge ordered him to pay a $1,000 fine and banned him from nighttime driving. “No sentence I offer Mr. Kosub will bring (your) daughter back,” the judge said to Josie Evans’ mother, Linda, who was in attendance for sentencing. “(Mr. Kozub) has expressed remorse and it’s evident to me that this has had a significant impact on him, and his family… this does not mirror the loss you’ve experienced.” She hoped, however, that the end of the legal process would bring some degree of closure to the family.

Census shows little language diversity in Kelowna Kathy Michaels STAFF REPORTER

Statistics Canada says Kelowna bucked a national trend, growing the population that lists English as its mother tongue, but one woman who works closely with this community’s immigrants hears a lot of diversity that hasn’t shown up in facts and figures. Joyce Brinkerhoff, the copresident of the Intercultural Society of the Central Okanagan, said news that 85.9 per cent of the population spoke English first in 2011— compared to 84.7 per cent in 2006—doesn’t mean a drop in cultural variety. Rather, it’s a sign that the

community’s immigrant population has grown roots. “Just looking around, our city is becoming more diverse,” she said, noting there have been waves of immigrant populations coming to the city for years. “Now, though, many people who speak other languages are second or third generation, and they’re speaking English first. They’re telling me that English is the language of commerce and of schools, so they speak that most.” The country’s statistical agency didn’t fail to acknowledge that there are some Canadians who are conversant in more than one language. There was even some growth

among that portion of the population locally, though it was minimal. Those who speak English and a nonofficial language in the Kelowna Census Metropolitan area rose to 0.7 per cent in 2011, from 0.5 in 2006. The figure, however, doesn’t seem to make up for the fact that 13.3 per cent in the 2006 census reported a first language other than English or French, compared to 11.8 per cent in 2011. That, Brinkerhoff explained, could be chalked up to economic realities. The years when Kelowna was calling upon Mexicans, Jamaicans and other immigrant groups to fill jobs that weren’t being filled and threatening the economy passed when

the economy tanked. Now those populations still have a presence, although they’re not likely to show up in the census, or plant roots in the community, as they may have in years past. Canada’s other official language, French, was reported as the mother tongue of 1.7 per cent of the population in the Central Okanagan, but just 0.4 per cent said they speak it exclusively at home. A number of languages were encompassed in the 11.5 per cent of residents living in the metro Kelowna area and identified a “non-official” language as their mother tongue. Spanish accounted for 0.5 per cent of the population and Polish, Hungar-

ian, Russian and the Filipino language of Tagalog accounted for 0.4 per cent each. In total, the census found 132 different languages were identified as mother tongues here, that places Kelowna 18th out of 33 metropolitan areas in the country. According to Statistics Canada, the drop here differs from other urban centres in the country where the proportion of non-official languages has risen since 2006. The census pegged the metro Kelowna’s population at 179,839, with 117,312 living in the City of Kelowna. The total population of the metro area grew 10.8 per cent, nearly double the national average for the period.

Protesters rally to fight for B.C.’s coastline Jennifer Smith STAFF REPORTER

No pipelines, no tankers and no room to breath on the sidewalk in front of Kelowna-Mission MLA Steve Thomson’s office thanks to the provincewide Defend Our Coast day of action. Well over 100 people filled the corner of Ethel Street and Springfield Road to protest the pipeline proposals that would see vast increases in the amount of bitumen tra-

versing Alberta and B.C. to refineries on the coast. Thomson was out of town, but protesters used the spot to share in the provincial protest day, a second action for individual communities following the larger protest on the lawns of the legislature Monday. “I’m not here to tell you you should be sitting in front of supertankers. Personally, I would, but that’s me,” said Danielle Prins the UBCO student who is acting as point-per-

Hyatt murder trial to begin on Friday Starting tomorrow jurors will start hearing evidence in a West Kelowna teen’s second degree murder trial. The teenage girl, whose name is under a publication ban, is accused of killing Ashlee Hyatt, 16, during a 2010 Peachland party. If she’s found guilty, she could be sentenced as an adult. Jurors were chosen for the trial Monday, and in the two days that followed lawyers vetted what evidence would be presented to them.

son for Kelowna’s portion of the multifaceted day of action. Across B.C. some 68 communities were holding similar protests and 3,403 people had registered on a website that they would attend a noonhour protest. Prins told reporters this cause has become her life of late, though she is ordinarily a human kinetics student and couldn’t make it to the protest on time because of a class. When she did arrive, fellow protesters gathered around for a few inspirational cheers as she took the megaphone and others spontaneously donning T-shirts to spell the phrase “no pipelines, no tankers”—one letter per person. “We came here for the common purpose of protecting our province,” said Chuck Cullen, a protester who put on a shirt to spell the phrase. Taron and Jen Keim used the gathering to gather signatures on a petition against the Foreign Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement set to pave the way for Chinese

The couple have been to several other spots to try and raise awareness. Like Prins, Taron is a student, but those in attendance at Wednesday’s rally ranged from retirement age to young parents, toddlers to those just out of high school. At the end of the day, the pearl for the oil companies is always money, so people young and old

must send a message that the jobs on the table are not worth the price of the social and environmental impact, Prins said. She checked the Enbridge website personally and learned the company is only offering 560 long-term jobs to British Columbians under the Enbridge Northern Gateway project, which protesters contend could threaten 785 rivers and streams in the province, including the Fraser and Skeena rivers. Enbridge is only one of two companies pitch-

ing vast pipeline expansions. Kinder Morgan also hopes to double capacity in its Trans Mountain Pipeline System. Thus far, Premier Christy Clark has proven defiant over the dollars involved, if not the environmental impact. In additions to walking out of meetings on the issue and demanding a larger share of the pie for B.C., she has tried speaking directly to the people in both Alberta and B.C. Liberal leadership candidate Justin Trudeau, on the other hand, has re-

jected the Enbridge proposal saying the company needs a better plan if it wants to run the line through one of the most sensitive ecosystems in the world—the Great Bear Rainforest. jsmith@kelownacapnews.com

NEWS ▼ REGIONAL DISTRICT

Pet owners welcome dog control service suggestions Wade Paterson STAFF REPORTER

Several residents and protestors who came into Kelowna City Hall frustrated with the regional district’s dog control service left feeling slightly more optimistic Monday night. The regional district board meeting was moved to the council chambers to accommodate approximately 50 residents who were interested in hearing a review of the dog control service. Allan Neilson, a con-

sultant with NeilsonWelch, told board members the current service aims to increase the safety and protection of the public from the negative impacts caused by dogs. He suggested the improved service should feature more goals alongside public safety, including a focus to increase dog licenses sold each year, increase levels of cost recovery, develop a stronger relationship with the dog owner community and develop a common philosophy among staff regarding dog control.

“We need to, in my view, have a very clear statement that dogs are part of this community,” said Neilson. “Dogs have intrinsic value in the community, dogs have the potential to add value to the families that they’re part of, to the neighbourhoods they belong to, to the broader community.” The report is modeled after other cities’ dog control services such as Calgary and Auckland, New Zealand. Neilson said currently only one-third of dogs

are licensed in the Central Okanagan. Dog licensing accounts for a significant portion of cost recovery; therefore, he said the regional district needs to impose rewards for owners who license their dogs and punishments for owners of dogs who are found to not have a license. The hot button issue for many was how the regional district will deal with aggressive dogs. The report recommends retaining two tiers of dog aggression: Dangerous dogs and aggres-

sive dogs, and adopting a three-strike policy to deal with repeat offender aggressive dogs. Volunteers are also key to the success of the dog control service, said Neilson. Their jobs would include assisting with the care of impounded dogs, the development of educational programs and working as dog service ambassadors to engage and educate dog owners in public parks. Peter and Jennifer Madsen sat in the front row of the council chambers on Monday night. The Madsens own Shadow, an Alaskan malamute that was impounded at the regional district’s dog control kennel for 15 months. Peter said the report was a “step in the right direction.” “I agree with a lot of the stuff they said,” said Peter. He added that certain provisions within this re-

port would have prevented him and his wife from going through “15 months of hell.” “We would’ve saved a ton of money and emotional distress and the RDCO would’ve saved a ton of money and bad publicity.” Others felt the report fell short of ensuring public safety. Tamie Williams wore a shirt with a picture of her son’s face Monday night. It read: Regulate the

breed, help prevent the deed. Her son, Zach, was bitten on the cheek by a pit bull last year. Forty stitches were required to close the wound. “I think one of the biggest points for me that really needs to be worked on is the three strikes in regard to an aggressive dog,” Williams said. “The dog that attacked my son had an aggressive designation and attacked my son to the point where he could have very well killed him. “I don’t believe that a dog, under any circumstance, should have a chance to bite. It shouldn’t be tolerated in our society.” The regional board directed staff to provide it with an implementation plan including opportunity for public comment with the goal of rolling out changes within the next year. wpaterson @kelownacapnews.com

Curt Kallen, energy manager for Gorman Bros., said the lumber company tries to spread energy management across all aspects of its business. “We do a variety of projects that range from refrigerated compressed air drying systems to efficient LED lighting,” said Kallen. “We also do compressed air studies to find out if we have leaks in the main sawmill and the other areas of the plant and identify the leaks and

fix them to save energy.” From 2011 to 2012, Gorman Bros. saved 4.1 gigawatt hours of electricity, or enough to power 372 homes for a year. The company tracks energy-efficiency as a key performance indicator and has a comprehensive employee engagement program across their multiple sites, ensuring staff are fully on board with energy reduction efforts. “BC Hydro has said they predict we will need double the power in 20 years in B.C. They’re

looking for conservation as a very economically viable way of realizing the extra power that will be required in the future and obtaining that. “We’re part of the solution.” It was a slight challenge getting long-term employees to realize the importance of changing processes to promote energy efficiency, but those employees now show that they get the message, said Kallen.

NEWS ▼ FRUIT CO-OP

Differing opinions raise conflicts at annual general meeting Board from A1 “We must work together for the future,” she said. Kelowna grower and former board member Glenn Cross said the coop board is split, which makes it really difficult for it to move forward. “I have concerns about where the co-op is heading, but I hope things will work out,” he added. Summerland grower Lorraine Bennest said there was encouraging news about sales and marketing of this year’s fruit by the packinghouse, and prices are up for apples. However, Bennest said she was disappointed that a number of growers didn’t seem to pay attention to the business side of the meeting, but in-

At last year’s annual general meeting, two of three incumbents were

also voted out of office, with Karmjit Gill, of Kelowna, elected to represent the north. Kirpal Boparai and Colin Pritchard, both of Kelowna, tied for the second seat and the

board later elected Pritchard. At that time, board chairman Jim Elliot, of Oyama, did not run for reelection. Representing growers in the south, Ron Vollo of Summerland, was re-elected, but Darshan Jassar, of Penticton, unseated incumbent Claude Moreira on the board. The other members of the board include Rob Dawson of Cawston, currently serving as president; vice-president Malcolm Mitchell of Winfield, Gill, Philip Patara of Kelowna, Pritchard, Nirmal Dhaliwal of Osoyoos, Jassar and Vollo. At the 2010 meeting, Cross was defeated by Patara and Joe Hart of Naramata, was defeated

BCFGA president says ‘old ways’ for orchardists don’t work anymore Grower from A1 He said a majority of the 200 to 300 growers in attendance approved the resolution. Cross went on to say he didn’t feel Boparai has respect for the co-op or the political people he is supposed to be working with on behalf of growers,

and that hinders his ability to represent growers. Boparai said he has talked to a couple of members of the co-op board and he didn’t feel the motion would go forward, but he said he would be more than happy to step aside if that’s what growers want. “It’s not about Kirpal. It’s all about the growers,”

Mother wished to speak before the court

he said. New people and new ideas are needed in the cooperative to get more returns to growers, he said. He was dismissed from the co-op recently because he did not honour his contractual agreement to ship all his apples through the co-op, but instead sold them else-

by Dhaliwal. The OTFC and its marketing arm, B.C. Tree Fruits, are owned by 580 farm families from throughout the Okanagan

Driver from A1 Although many in the courtroom were brought to tears throughout the brief event, it offered little consolation to Evans’ family. The 15-year-old was walking home from jazz band practice in January 2010, down the shoulder of Bottom Wood Lake Road, when she was struck. She was walking with traffic, wearing dark clothing and it was raining and dark at the time of the crash. She died at the scene. Little more is known, said Linda Evans, noting that she’s been trying to separate fact from rumour and innuendo in the years since her daughter was killed. Regarding Wednesday’s court proceedings in particular, however, Evans said she wished the courts would have allowed her the opportunity to read her victim impact statement and that Kozub would have spoken to her directly. “He has never summoned the courage to face me and apologize,” said Evans. “I’m the one who’s daughter-less. I sat behind his daughter in the court today.” Lessening the impact of her loss, however, is the fact that the community of Lake Country has rallied around her family in the years that have passed. That has included reducing the speed limit in the area where Josie was hit, and adding other traffic calming measures to the area. Kozub pleaded guilty to the Motor Vehicle Act offence of not exercising due care to avoid a collision with a pedestrian. kmichaels@kelownacapnews.com

▼ OUR VIEW

Armed for the Internet

he international outpouring of shock, disbelief and grief at Lower Mainland teenager Amanda Todd’s death tells us much about how we use social media to connect and how little we understand the consequences of using it. It’s clear the worldwide web has opened a Pandora’s Box of issues among our young people, but when adults freely give up their privacy to a company that harvests their personal details for profit, it’s hard to expect children

to know any better. This is not a case for shutting down the Internet— as impossible a task as stopping the tides—for the instant knowledge and communication it offers is a huge benefit. Nor is it a call to put more rules or laws in place to stop pornography, bullying, the distribution of hate messages and other horrible attributes of anonymous, instant and pervasive communication. Anti-bullying, child pornography and hate laws backed by

enforcement obviously need to be in place but the problem of child victimization isn’t easily stopped. The more walls that are erected, the more fun the challenge is for hackers and haters, the malware makers, the virus-mongers, the attention-seekers and the sexually perverse. It’s an endless game of whack-a-mole, with solutions always just out of reach and more children at risk every day. It’s better to inoculate chil-

dren against victimization so they can be more proactive about their own safety. Get them at school, in the home, at church and in the community centre. Children as young as five need to know how the Internet works. They need to know what risky behaviour is and the consequences of it. They need to know when online teasing becomes bullying, the difference between strangers and friends; and who to go to if they are being bullied.

Reason for change to smart meters: Follow the money

ust how smart are smart meters and is their intelligence too much for our own good? The answer to that and many other questions probably won’t surface with any absolute clarity at the upcoming B.C. Utilities Commission hearing in Kelowna on Nov. 8. The hearing will allow the commission to hear arguments for and against the wireless technology meter reading system that FortisBC wants to install outside the homes of its customers. BC Hydro has been taking the flak over this move for months, and FortisBC is now about to step into the fray as well. The science research into the im-

pact of smart meters on our health, or the lack of it, is leading people to fill in the blanks with what-if scenarios that are more often oriented to the bad than the positive. Last month, a public forum was held at the Rotary Centre for the Arts, put on by the Citizens For Safe Technology, a volunteer organization dedicated to stopping the smart meter installation campaign dead in its tracks. More than 100 people showed up to listen to Jerry Flynn, a retired Canadian Armed Forces expert in wireless

communication and its use in warfare. While Flynn talked about smart meters, he also talked at length about other wireless technology devicBarry es in our homes—WiGerding Fi, cell phones, microwave ovens, etc.—that was a tad frightening. Still, Flynn admitted he hadn’t paid much attention to the smart meter debate until his daughter started voicing her concerns to him. So, like so many of us do these days, Flynn got on the Internet and began looking for background information, past scientific studies and the like. He start-

EDITOR’S NOTE

ed asking questions and found “the more I would dig into it the worse it would get.” Flynn spent the evening explaining terms like pulsating electronic waves, EMR (electro magnetic radiation), ZigBee (wireless technology product) and wireless frequencies. He used the analogy of smart meter frequencies streaming through a house in the same way as being flooded out by water. The difference is, you can see and feel the damage from a flood immediately, not so much with the perceived dangers of electro magnetic radiation. He cited studies that backed up the theory of dangerous exposure and how other countries have taken differ-

ent positions from B.C. That is countered by the fact Health Canada and the World Health Organization are two of many groups which have no concerns about the devices. Flynn told the audience he had reverted to optic cable technology for his phone and computer at home because of those concerns. He said the standard analogue meter reading devices on the sides of our houses and businesses work perfectly fine. So why the need to change to a higher tech device? “Follow the money,” he replied answering his own question, arguing that smart meter-like devices save

LETTERS

A Gift in Memory Makes a Difference Sidewalks sidelined to make bureaucrats comfy ▼ KELOWNA CITY HALL

To the editor: Re: City Hall Renos Go Over Budget, Oct. 23 Capital News. It’s funny to realize that when a comedian like Jim Carrey talks out of his arse we laugh and think its funny, but when an elected gov-

ernment official does it we get upset, and that is expected. Why would those nice people at city hall talk about going outside to walk to work and ride your bike to work then—the not so funny part—they go ahead and take away mon-

ies that were for sidewalks and bike path upgrades. Wow, I hope your chairs are nice and cushy. Ian Wright, Kelowna

Ridiculous conclusions on Donkey Love film To the editor: Capital News – Letter to the Editor After reading Kathy Michaels’ column: ‘Don’t ask, don’t tell about your Donkey Love’ (Oct. 12, Capital News) then Ronald Roy’s response ‘Film festival goers can vote with their feet’ (Oct. 18, Capital News), I felt moved to kick up my heels and throw my two bits worth into the ‘bray’. I am not surprised that Kelowna citizens would be frothing at the mouth with frustration over Jackass smut. After all, Kelowna is a Conservative Bible belt. To the folks who put together the petition to ban the film declaring: “Please do not permit the

showing of Donkey Love in Kelowna, B.C.”, to say that this film supports the exploitation of innocent animals who cannot fight back is a bit of a stretch. There is a difference between supporting exploitation of animals and showing a film. To state that a modern society should not tolerate the sexual abuse of any sentient living beings, including animals, perhaps should look at the abuses that took place in our own country by individuals in position of authority against innocent children, then denying their actions. So before we start judging another culture, it would be more productive if the morally up-

right, God-fearing citizens got off their high horses (or donkeys) and took off their blinders, they would see that modern society is changing, uncertain, full of challenges and opportunities. I support the right of Kelowna citizens to express their opinions, so let’s all work together to break down the barriers that separate us and create a healthy, welcoming and inclusive community. There is much work to do. We could begin by opening our eyes, minds, hearts and spirit and changing our attitudes about people we don’t understand or don’t care about. The God-fearing citizens could practice what

Jesus not only taught but lived: Love your neighbour and treat others as you wish to be treated. There is no shortage of ways to practice—it starts with each one of us. Besides banning for film Donkey Love, let’s ban our ignorance and fear and cultivate compassion. There are many people in Kelowna who are struggling—the homeless, the G.L.B.T. individuals living with the stigma, and stereotyping surrounding mental illness. The list goes on. Roy’s comment about Ms. Michaels falling prey to the media’s often used, ‘learning about another culture’ excuse to express her views, then to insinu-

ate whether Ms. Michaels would condone viewing the product of another sub-culture, namely ‘snuff movies’ whereby an actual murder is filmed? It’s one thing for Roy to vote with his feet, but to put them in his mouth by taking Ms. Michaels’ views to its ridiculous extreme is akin to banning children from playing pin the tail on the donkey in case their innocent minds become perverted. I listened to the director of Donkey Love being interviewed on CBC radio while driving my daughter (18 years old) to school, and we both had a good laugh. So, go ahead, make my day—smile!

Downtown didn’t need Interior Health congestion To the editor: Why does Kelowna city council seem bound and determined to break the Simpson Covenant and jam everything downtown? Interior Health could acquire property outside of the downtown, on a

transit route where people, even without a car, could reach it. There is property along Springfield east of the Fortis building, even the corner of Benvoulin, either of which would support a multi-storey building along with its own parking.

There are also several areas in Rutland which would help that area by increasing business which it could certainly handle. I thought when Interior Health acquired the Burnett family property across from Cottonwoods several years ago that their

intention was to build a building which would house all their entities near a transit line and with its own parking. All they have done there is bring in portables for office space and park mostly on the street—how come? City Hall needs to get

off this tack of battling what our kind forefathers tried to do for our fair city and spread things out and stop congesting downtown which will have enough congestion when all those highrises they are envisioning are built. Len Jupp, Kelowna

FortisBC meter project under public review

LANDLORDS!

man does in fact have a smart meter installed on her house, it would have been installed by BC Hydro. Customers in West Kelowna may receive a FortisBC gas bill which is calculated from manual meter readings. FortisBC has not installed any advanced meters (also known as smart meters) anywhere in our gas or electric service territories,

including Kelowna. The proposed FortisBC advanced metering infrastructure project is currently under a public review process with the B.C. Utilities Commission. Mark Warren, director customer service, FortisBC, Kelowna

money and open the potential for having greater monitoring control over all wireless home devices and appliances in the future. Just this week, the Regional District of Okanagan-Similkameen voted narrowly for a moratorium on smart meter installations until an optout option is made available to municipalities and other jurisdictions. Other

communities in the province have registered similar concerns. Flynn questioned Kelowna’s desire to get involved in this debate given the new corporate partnership between the city and Fortis. Local residents who have registered to speak at the hearing will have their say will have their say before the BCUC on Nov. 8 at the Best Western Hotel, with two sessions planned for 3 to 5 p.m. and 6 to

9 p.m. The hearings are open to the public to attend. With the science behind this debate inconclusive, the question for many becomes a matter of trust, and governments and corporations don’t bask in that sentiment from the public these days.

Heat launches Canada West season Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER

No longer the new kids on the block, expect battle-hardened and more confident UBC Okanagan volleyball teams to take to the court for the start of the 2012-13 Canadian Interuniversity Sport campaign. The Heat men and women open their second Canada West season this weekend with a homeand-home set against the Thompson Rivers University Wolfpack. The two schools will tip off the season Friday night in Kamloops, then will return to Kelowna for matches Saturday at UBCO. In Kelowna, the women play at 5 p.m., with the men’s game to follow at 7 p.m. For Greg Poitras and the men’s squad, the Heat will be looking to build off a hugely successful inaugural season in Canada

West as UBCO surprised the rest of the conference by earning a playoff spot. Led by all-star and fifth-year power hitter Nate Speijer, Poitras isn’t putting an emphasis on wins and losses, but rather the concept of improving with each week. “Although it would be nice, we’re not necessarily focusing on improving our record as much as we’re focusing on the process of how we get there,” said Poitras, whose squad went 8-12. “If we improve, then good things will happen. We have a deeper team, our training is better and we think we’ve prepared well for the season.” Along with Speijer, the Heat will look for veteran leadership this season from veteran fifth-years Brett Uniat, Riley McFarland and Jeremy Kler, and fourth-year Greg Niemansverdriet. Meanwhile, Steve

Manuel and the women’s team will be looking to improve on last season’s 6-14 record. With just one player having graduated and a solid corps of young recruits, the Heat fully expects to challenge for a playoff berth (top seven) come the spring of 2013. “We were somewhat happy with how our first season went, it’s the best a first-year team has ever done on the women’s side but we aren’t satisfied with that,” Manuel said. “With the exception of one player, everybody is back and we have added depth at every position. We think we have a nice core developing now and a nice one for the future. We expect to be very competitive.” Veteran leadership on the Heat will come this year from the likes of Alex Basso, Kendra Wayling, Jill Festival and Myrte Schon.

RON HOLE PHOTOGRAPHY

FIVE-YEAR VETERAN Nate Speijer and his UBC Okanagan teammates will open the Heat’s second Canada West season this weekend against TRU.

Cooke CHL GoW Like any competent goaltender, Jordon Cooke has a penchant for stopping rubber. Over a two-game stretch last week, the Kelowna Rockets’ netminder performed that duty as well as anyone in major junior hockey. Cooke, 19, a native of Leduc, Alta., has been named the Canadian Hockey League’s goalie of the week ending Oct. 21. Cooke posted a 2-0 record, including a shutout victory with a goalsagainst-average of 1.00 and save percentage of .967. He made 59 saves between the pipes for the Rockets in a pair of victories including a 32-save performance on Thursday where he recorded his second shutout of the season as first star of a 3-0 win over the Prince George Cougars. He then made 27 saves on Saturday as second star of a 4-2 victory over the Brandon Wheat Kings.

Jordon Cooke

Cooke is playing in his third WHL season with the Rockets. In 11 games so far this season he carries a 5-5-1-0 record with a goals-against-average of 3.19 and save percentage of .901.

ROCKET SHOTS…

The Rockets continue their Alberta road trip Friday night in Red Deer against the Rebels. Kelowna will visit Edmonton on Saturday and Calgary on Sunday… The Rockets next home action is Thursday, Nov.1 against the B.C. Divisionleading Kamloops Blazers.

Schultz named AHL PoW

Contributed West Kelowna native Justin Schultz is the American Hockey League’s player of the week.

It hasn’t taken long for West Kelowna’s Justin Schultz to make an impact in the professional ranks. The former Westside Warriors defenceman and current property of the NHL’s Edmonton Oilers, has been named the CCM/American Hockey League player of the week ending Oct. 21. A rookie blue liner with the AHL’s Oklahoma City Barons, Schultz tallied three goals, added an assist and posted a plus-6

rating in three games last week. “It is a little bit of a surprise I’ve started out this hot,” Schultz said in an interview on the Barons’ web site. “You know I’m playing with a lot of great players that are giving me some great passes and getting open for me, so that’s makes it real easy for me.” Schultz was named the game’s first star in the Barons’ home opener last Friday night, scoring two

shorthanded goals, assisting on the game-winning goal, recording six shots and compiling a plus-5 rating in Oklahoma City’s 5-2 victory over San Antonio. The next night, Schultz scored again and earned second-star honours in a 5-3 loss to Lake Erie. Schultz, 22, was drafted in 2008 by the Anaheim Ducks, but signed as a free agent with the Oilers on June 30 of this year after three seasons at the

University of Wisconsin. Schultz was twice named the WCHA’s Defensive Player of the Year and was one of 10 finalists for the Hobey Baker Award in both 2010-11 and 2011-12. The 6-foot-2, 185-pound native of West Kelowna leads all AHL blueliners with four goals and five assists through four games with Oklahoma City this season. whenderson @kelownacapnews.com

Josephs leads Chiefs past Chase

midget A girls hockey action Saturday afternoon at Rutland Arena. Rockets defender Christie Blackburne (clockwise from top left) takes a shot from the point; Rockets forward Riley Henderson battles a Salmon Arm opponent in the face off circle; Riley Henderson fires a low slap shot at the Salmon Arm goal and Kelowna goaltender Kellie Montgomery makes a kick save against Salmon Arm.

Newcomer Nick Josephs didn’t take long to get comfortable in a Kelowna Chiefs’ uniform. Acquired last week from Okotoks of the AJHL, the 6-foot-1, 185-pound forward scored a hat-trick and added an assist Tuesday night to lead the Chiefs past Chase 5-1 in Kootenay International Junior Hockey League action at Rutland Arena. Scott Renner and Brady Mende also scored in the win, with Jordan Salahor adding two assists. Chiefs goaltender Tyler O’Donnell lost his shutout bid with just 1:35 to play in the third period. Kelowna (5-8-0) returns to action Saturday at Rutland Arena against the Summerland Steam. Face off is 7 p.m.

SPORTS ▼ RUGBY

U19 Crows stay unbeaten The Kelowna Crows U19 squad remains undefeated through the first month of the 2012 B.C. Rugby Union fall season. The Crows pushed their record to 4-0 Saturday at Parkinson with a convincing 38-13 victory over the United U19 squad from Coquitlam. Cole Mosychuk scored a pair of tries for the Crows and now has five on the season, while Jake Pilon, Alex Ballingal and Fenner Kingston also found the scoring area for Kelowna. “It was another good win,” said Crows coach Steve Doyle. “We still have a lot of things to improve on, but most teams would take winning any

way they can get it. The big thing was our lineouts were a big improvement. We kept our shape and structure quite well, but our handling wasn’t very good. We’ll continue to work at getting better all aspects.” The Crows, in just their second season of operation, are proving to be a serious contender in the BCRU’s Lower Mainland tier 2 league. With three regular season games remaining and the playoffs to follow, coach Doyle is pleased with the program’s progress to date and its potential going forward. “We started it up last year and it was kind of ragtag to start off, but seem

Warriors visit Vees for rematch Friday

▼ FOOTBALL

The West Kelowna Warriors will get another crack at the Penticton Vees this weekend as the teams meet Friday night in BCHL action at the South Okanagan Events Centre. The Warriors came out on the short end of a 4-3 overtime verdict on Tuesday afternoon at Royal LePage Place. Michael Rebry scored the game-winning goal for the Vees 2:06 into the extra period. In an unconventional 11 a.m. start, close to 1,300 school kids from across the Westside attended the game. The Vees have had the Warriors’ number the last couple of years, posting 14 consecutive regular season victories over West Kelowna. On Tuesday, the Warriors started strong with goals from Marcus Basara and Ambrose Firkus for a 2-0 lead early in the second period. However, the Warriors

The Okanagan Sun celebrated individual player achievements for the 2012 B.C. Football Conference season with its annual awards banquet Sunday night at the Coast Capri Hotel. The following are this year’s winners: Co-Most Valuable Players : Steven Doege (defensive lineman)—33 tackles, 12 sacks, two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries; and Bobby Davis (slot back)—29 catches, 498 yards, three touchdowns, 13 rushes, 34 yards, four touchdowns. Rookie of the Year: Cam Bedore (quarterback)—117 of 239 for 2,005 yards and 14 touchdowns. Top Defensive Lineman: Steven Doege – 33 tackles, 12 sacks, two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries Top Offensive Lineman: Jordan Pfeifer

ran into penalty trouble and the Vees roared back with three straight goals, while firing 19 shots at goalie Tyler Briggs in the second period. Shawn Hochhausen tallied for the Warriors two minutes to play in regulation. West Kelowna head coach and GM Rylan Ferster wasn’t entirely pleased with his team’s effort. “I don’t think we played the way we should have for a game like this in our building,” said Ferster. “I don’t think our compete level was where it had to be at for 60 minutes to play a team like that.” Veterans Brett McKinnon and Max French both missed Tuesday’s game with injury and will remain sidelined for Friday’s game in Penticton. The Warriors (8-2-04) are tied for second in the Interior Division with Merritt, five points back of the Vees.

Lions defeat Vernon

Mountain Film Fest

The Kelowna Lions stretched their season record to 8-1 with a 30-6 win over Vernon in junior bantam football action Sunday. Jesse Benneke led the way on the defensive line while Chancelor Bevanda led the linebacking corps as the Lions held Vernon to virtually no positive yards on offense in the second half. The Kelowna offense started slowly, committing three turnovers but kicked their game into gear in the second half.

Local endurance coach and runner Rene Unser will be the guest speaker Saturday at the 12th edition of the Vancouver International Mountain Film Festival in Kelowna. The ‘Best of the Fest Tour’, showcasing six outdoor adventure films, will begin at 7 p.m. at the Kelowna Community theatre. Unser recently completed her second GoreTex Transalpine Run through the mountains of Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Italy.

Taylor Knoll rushed for 249 yards, ran for a touchsown and passed for another. Brady McMechan, Chancelor Bevanda and Justin Paige also scored touchdowns. In other action, the West Kelowna Sun Devils defeated the Salmon Arm Colts 8-0 to push their record to 8-1 and remain in a tie for first with the Lions. In a game filled with turnovers, the Sun Devils prevailed with a stingy defence led by Jacob ZimMinor Football A23

This year’s route covered 320 km and 50,000 feet of climbing through, around and over all types of terrain, which Unser conquered in 51 hours. Midway through the program, Unser will present a slide show and share her many experiences as an endurance athlete. “I hope my stories will enlighten and inspire more than just runners,” said Unser, 36, who grew up in Kelowna. “I’ll share examples of how I’ve learned lifelong lessons,

the challenges I’ve taken on, and how I’ve grown from my two biggest athletic finishes. “I’m grateful for the opportunity and hope people will get something out of my presentation, as much as I have from guest speakers in the past.” The films in this year’s VIMFF program will feature mountain culture, skiing, biking, climbing, paddling and outdoor adventure from around the world. Advance tickets are $15, or $20 at the door.

THANKS BE TO GOD!

“I wasn’t quite sure where I was. I had never been to Jerusalem before and my family was worried about me making the trip alone. I had assured them that I would stay with the group and be ﬁne but I had been daydreaming again. Thinking about all the things I wanted because lately, my lot in life had frustrated me. I live in a small sleepy town where nothing much happens. I help with the chores around the small farm we have. Last month though, Mother and Father came to me and told me that they wanted me to take a wife. Me? A wife? I am not ready for that kind of responsibility. I am still young, still trying to decide what I want to do.

it was clearly one man against the rest. He took one step forward. Then I heard more clearly what was being called out. It was not the normal cry that they were unclean and the travelers should keep their distance. Instead, the sick men cried out, “Jesus, Master have pity on us!” Jesus? I had heard of Jesus, a man from Nazareth. It seemed people spoke of little else these days but could that really be him?

Now, here I was, lost on the road and I was scared! I didn’t know what I was going to do; what direction I should go! Suddenly, I heard voices in the distance. Men were standing on a hill, calling to a small group of people on the road. They wore the rags of those afﬂicted by disease. Even at this distance, I could see the telltale rashes on their faces, arms and legs. A couple of the men were missing ﬁngers and one man’s nose had collapsed in on itself. Those with leprosy had always frightened me but now looking at them, calling out to people on the road, I was not so much scared as I was sad. Here I was running away from my family and they could not even come close to theirs.

Some people said that Jesus was the messiah sent by the Lord to save us, or that he was Elijah the great prophet reborn. But the teachers and priests said he was a false prophet and a blasphemous man who ignored the law and claimed to be the Son of God. I didn’t know what to think. I had never met him and he had never been to our little village but there he was taking steps toward the unclean men on the hill. Why would he ignore the law? Why would he go close to those men? They could make him sick. Jesus closed the distance between them and spoke to them. I was so curious to hear what they were saying, I found myself creeping closer. I had to know what Jesus was saying to them. I had to know why he would put his own life and health at risk for these unclean men! Then I heard Jesus say to them, “Go show yourselves to the priest.” In town? Jesus was sending them to Jerusalem to show themselves to the priests? As the men ran by, I watched as their skin healed. The rashes scabbed over and fell off; open sores knit together. These men were healing as they ran! Surely Jesus must be something great! As they ran, I saw the last in the group slow down and marvel at his hands and legs. He turned slowly and the sunlight caught the glint of tears in his eyes. He ran back to Jesus, who had now returned to the road. I noticed, as he came back, that he was a Samaritan. When he reached Jesus, he fell to the ground in front of him thanking Jesus profusely for healing him. Jesus knelt and helped the man to his feet. He spoke in low tones, words I could not hear. The Samaritan nodded and then turned from Jesus and once again began running in the direction of where the other men had gone.

I noticed that the people on the road had stopped and turned toward the lepers on top of the hill. It looked as if the men on the road were having a heated conversation. The sides were not even,

I stood stunned, no longer worried about being lost. Jesus smiled at me as they passed by and I blurted out, “What did you say to that man?” Jesus stopped and turned, looking me directly in the

I had ﬁnally talked my father into letting me go to Jerusalem for a bit to pick up supplies for the family. I actually hadn’t yet decided if I was returning home but I didn’t tell my parents that, of course. I knew that it would hurt them if I didn’t return. They had raised me, fed me, cared for me, but somehow as I set off on this trip, none of that seemed as important as the excitement of living in Jerusalem!

eyes. He spoke kindly: “I asked the Samaritan, ‘were not all ten cleansed? Where are the other nine? Was no one found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?’ And then I told him to go, for his faith had made him well.” “Oh,” was all I could say, as Jesus placed a hand on my shoulder. “You should go as well my son, return to your family and praise God for all he has given you!” And with that he turned and went on his way. I sat for a time and pondered what he had said. How had Jesus known that I had been running away from the people who cared for me; that I was like the nine, ungrateful, not thankful, only caring about myself and the things I wanted. How did he know? Was he the Messiah? How else could he heal those men, how else could he have known my heart and mind? I knew in that moment that I would return home, I would be different, I would be thankful, and I would be blessed. I headed off in the direction that the others had gone and had faith that I would ﬁnd my group, for I too had been healed that day by the man named Jesus, and I was forever thankful.” The young man from our story was ﬁctional but the healer was not! Jesus Christ was sent to heal us all. To heal us from the sickness of sin that keeps us from seeing all the blessings that we receive from God. He heals us with His blood, with His mercy and with His grace. In our faith in Him, we too are made well like the Samaritan man. Thanks be to God, who sustains us and holds us… In His Grip, Pastor Karen Seifert We gather for worship at 9:30 am and 10:30 am Sunday mornings. All are welcome!

Heat women cap positive pre-season The UBC Okanagan women’s basketball team wrapped up its pre-season in style, winning two of three games last weekend at the Cougar Classic tournament hosted by Mount Royal University. The Heat played Friday night against fellow Canada West members the University of Lethbridge Pronghorns, winning 9188. Saturday night the Heat took on SAIT, beating the Trojans 90-54. Finally, Sunday afternoon, after playing Laurentian University, the Heat lost a close game 70-66. Second-year guard Sarah Allison had a whopping 20 points in both the first two games and then 23 points against Laurentian on Sunday. Veteran post Roslyn Huber led the team with 26 points Friday night in the game against the Pronghorns, and second-year guard Emily Kanester put up 22 points, 15 of those points coming from outside the arc in the Friday night win. “I thought the weekend was a success and a step forward for us as a team,” commented Allison. “We played tough and showed what we are capable of as a group.” In the game against SAIT the Heat picked up their defense, getting 23 steals and 28 points off of turnovers. The entire team contributed to the team’s offensive effort with 49 bench points in the SAIT

The UBC Okanagan men closed out their preseason at home with a pair of losses last weekend. On Thursday, the York University Lions slipped past the Heat 81-79. UBCO led by as many as 21 points in the game but was hampered by poor shooting, turnovers and foul trouble as York rallied back in the second half. Fourth year transfer guard, Landry Ndayitwayeko, from Lakeland College, finished with a game high of 18 points. Ottawa native Anwar Faza stepped up for the Heat adding 13 points and six assists, while forward Dave Mackay hauled in nine boards to lead UBC Okanagan.

UBCO’s first home action is Friday, Nov. 9 against Mount Royal.

Mustangs win valley title The Immaculata Mustangs are the Okanagan Valley high school A boys soccer champs for 2012. The Mustangs defeated their local rivals, the Kelowna Christian Knights, 1-0 in last Saturday’s final in Penticton. In an evenly-played affair, the Mustangs moved ahead on a goal by Jesse McCarthy and, thanks in large part to the goal of Jake Harman, hung on to the lead the rest of the way.

According to coach Paul Freire, Immaculata’s players of the tournament were four unsung heroes: Gavin Day, Michael Macdonnell, Jesse McCarthy and Jake Harman. The Mustangs had a tough road to get to the final, defeating rivals St. Ann’s from Kamloops 1-0 on a goal by Corbin Beauchemin. A resounding 9-0 victory over Ashcroft followed, with goals coming from Chris Macdon-

nell (2), Jesse McCarthy (2), Lachlan Wallace (2), James Casorso, Max Lauretta, and Corbin Beauchemin.

Beauchemin was a force on defense all game making tackle after tackle, leading the Lions charge. “While their were some great individual performances this weekend none of that could have been accomplished without a total team effort, starting with the offensive and defensive lines,” said Lions coach Kendall Gross. “The Lions really are a special group of players who have truly come together as a team.”

The retirement planning differences of men and women T ‘‘ he BMO Retirement Institute published a study in April 2011 called, Divergent Paths To Retirement: How men and women plan differently. In this study, they found that while men and women may share the same dreams and goals for retirement, they also have many differences which influence their respective retirement funds. So what are some of the differences and why do they matter? Women are far more likely to spend a portion of their retirement years alone, whether by choice

Robert Oleksyn or as a result of death or divorce. As a result, they are also less likely to have someone to share their living expenses with during their retirement. Women accumulate smaller retirement ‘nest eggs.’ This happens, simply because they have earned

less during their life. Compared with men, women tend to choose jobs which pay less and have more limited pension benefits. They are also more likely to interrupt their employment to accommodate their role as the family care giver. As such, they work less hours, take more leaves of absences and are more likely to quit their job altogether. Women live longer. This means that their smaller nest egg has to stretch further. Once a woman reaches 65, she can expect to

Investors forum ups the ante with a $5,000 cash prize The next round of Venture Okanagan’s Investors Forum at Okanagan College will offer a huge incentive for local entrepreneurs with big ideas—a $5,000 cash prize. The event, which takes place on Nov. 7 at Okanagan College, offers six entrepreneurs the opportunity to maximize a 10minute pitch to a panel of accredited investors and guests. This year, the stakes are even higher thanks to the inclusion of a new cash prize from title sponsor Grant Thornton. “We jumped at the opportunity to sponsor SIFE’s Venture Okanagan program,” said Andrew Malashewsky, manager of Grant Thornton’s Kelowna office. “We recognize the importance of the availability of capital for growing businesses in our community. VO provides this opportunity as well as connects businesses to the right people and networks. “We believe the recent successes are an indication of the potential this program has and we are excited to be a part of it.” The forum will be the fifth of its kind put on by

Venture Okanagan, which is now in its third year of operations under the umbrella of Okanagan College’s Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE). “The quality of the deals presented really speak for the program,” said Steve Watson, chair of Venture Okanagan and abusiness professor at Okanagan College. “Entrepreneurs who present at Venture Okanagan either gain a mentor or acquire equity financing to grow their business. After the pitches entrepreneurs, investors, and guests can connect at the catered networking re-

ception.” The entrepreneurs pitching on Nov. 7 have all made it through a screening round. The ideas on the table include an engineering invention that protects waterways from toxic chemicals, a health technology business that is specializing in lower back pain management, a transportation security software business, and a specialty distillery business that is opening in the South Okanagan, to name a few.

live until she’s 86, which is about three years longer than a man her age. Men are more likely to have a financial plan than women, regardless of the age category studied. A financial plan is the key to having a comfortable retirement because it helps a person understand the various trade-offs involved in their time/value of money calculation. How else will you decide which risks that you prefer to take; what rate of return that you need; how much you have to save; when you can retire and how long will your money last if you have not worked through a financial plan? Men are twice as likely as women to take more risk in their investment portfolios in order to meet their retirement needs.

THE LESSON THAT WE CAN ALL LEARN IS WHILE BOTH SEXES ARE DIFFERENT, THEY CAN BOTH LEARN FROM EACH OTHER.

This means that they are more likely to hold mutual funds and stocks in their investment portfolios whereas women are more likely to hold GICs. This willingness to assume more risk allows men to achieve higher growth in their retirement savings. Women are more successful at implementing their financial plans.

Nearly half of the men surveyed said that when it came to retirement planning, “I can do this myself’ compared to about a third of the women. Fortunately for women, it seems that they are more likely than men to follow their advisor’s guidance and that helps them avoid costly mistakes and stretch their savings. When selecting a financial advisor, women look for honesty and listening skills and for someone with good teaching skills. Men by contrast, tend to seek out those with the lowest fees, those with the best tools and those with a broader range of products. The lesson that we can all learn is while the sexes are different, they can both learn from each oth-

er.

They can improve the outcomes of their retirement by adopting the best characteristics and mitigating those traits that obstruct them from planning for and enjoying a successful retirement.

BUSINESS

Accountant groups merge into one

DeHart from A24 consultation, the agreement was reached following unanimous votes by the CMABC board and the ICABC council in favour of unifying the two organizations. Together, ICABC and CMABC

will petition the provincial government to update their legislation and legally merge the two organizations. The new CPABC organization will deliver the nationally-developed CPA Certification Program to B.C. students beginning in the fall of 2013

and will become the principal body affiliated with CPA Canada, which will launch Jan. 1, 2013. Until such time as legislative changes are enacted, CA and CMA members will maintain their current designation and both the ICABC and CMABC

will continue their existing mandates of self-regulation, education and advocacy. Congratulations to the Penticton Lakeside Resort (sister property to the Ramada Hotel & Conference Center in Kelowna) on the inaugural Pen-

ticton Lakeside—United Way, Drive-Thru Breakfast held on Oct. 18. They raised close to $8,000 and the atmosphere was electric. Kudos to all the sponsors, volunteers, David Prystay, Susie Tomicic, Vanessa Jahnke and the entire Penticton Lakeside

staff. Congrats to all for this initial endeavour. An Evening Out to Support Ashlyn Lang takes place Friday, Nov. 2, from 7 to 11 p.m., at the Hotel Eldorado. Just days after turning three, Ashlyn was diagnosed with a life threatening disease known as tyrosinemia type I. Her liver transplant went well, but she spent 10 weeks away from Kelowna during her recovery. The fundraiser will help the Langs recover some of the costs and expenses of their long journey for their daughter’s recovery. I will be helping them out that evening, so see you there. For tickets call Rachel Schofield at 250718-8851. A couple of personal observations from the 28th annual Am Corrado Racquetball Tournament held this past weekend. Terry Wardrop and Lyle Jorde played doubles and only won “one” game the entire weekend. Not sure if that had anything to do about Terry’s age (see below). In saying that, the game they played against Nick C and Ken McWilliam was said to be a bit tense, as apparently Ken’s playing and refereeing ability leaves something to be desired—especially when he is playing and refereeing all at the same time (ha!). Ken and Nick were the final winners of the tournament in their division with Nick carrying Ken all the way! Kudos to Richard Gauthier Grand Pooba #9 on a successful tournament. The Downtown Kelowna Association is opening its doors for a public drop-in at the association’s office, 200-287 Bernard Ave. on Wednesday, Nov. 7, to chat, see what they are working on next and get up to date on key issues and construction downtown. The open house will run from 3 to 6 p.m. Birthdays of the week: Happy 70th Terry Wardrop, Wealthlink Financial, formerly I.A Pacific Life (Oct. 27); happy 75th to Ken Good (Oct. 20), had Ken in last week’s column, but someone forgot to tell me he was 75; happy 65th Trevor Benson (Aug. 30), sorry it’s a little late but Trevor thought I would not find out; happy 60th Terry Trager (Oct. 25); Carey Kapp (Oct. 24); and Jim Milne (Oct. 25).

Master of artistic balance

Ending pays off

Jennifer Smith STAFF REPORTER

If there’s a formula for artistry, it’s something like one part elation and beauty, one part angst and rueful inability to hold on to whatever was beautiful. Somehow, though only in his mid-20s, Alberta-born, Victoria-based folk singer/songwriter Mike Edel has mastered the balance. Launching a tour to support two new singles and a music video in Kelowna today, he’s still struggling with themes from the last time he toured the Okanagan—youthful exuberance versus the realization this period is fleeting and what the future might hold versus the paths already narrowed, choices already eliminated. Nowhere are these themes more evident than in the place one grew up, he says. “As much as home is this perfect tactile, concrete place, everyone has these internal struggles about that space,” he said in interview from the Alberta farm where he was raised. The 26-year-old artist had just pressed 42 seveninch vinyls, one song on each side, and framed in old barn wood, each made by his own hand. In some ways, his own process mirrors the juxtaposition of his subjects, mixing old-world craftsmanship with high-pro-

MIKE EDEL launches a Western Canadian tour in Kelowna today before the top five in the Peak Performance Project are picked. The tour supports his new video for The Country Where I Came From and he is among the Top 20 Peak Performance artists vying for a final spot in the contest. duction video to attract a tech-savvy folk audience who like their acoustic streamed live and their music stored in clouds. But, with five years in the industry under his belt, he also is quite calcu-

lated about that mix. “I don’t make rash decisions,” he explained. “Even though people may see me as a carefree musician, those who really know me would say I move slowly and think

things through.” One of the main things he’s contemplating lately is the state of the family farm where he got the wood to build his album covers. His grandfather escaped the Rus-

sian czar, as he puts it, immigrating first to Mexico then to the Canadian prairies where his father, the son-in-law, now farms the family’s 1500 acres. His sister is a teacher and mother living on that

land, but he has chosen a life in music, describing it as “a way to articulate in a concise, yet open manner the microcosm and the macrocosm of the world.” Music has served him well. Starting with drums at age 14 and moving into the guitar by age 16, he has worked his way up to a spot in the Peak Performance Project this year; the cut to make the final five occurs in early November. He’s just completed a business project submission for the popular contest, sponsored by The Peak 102.7 radio station in Vancouver, but says he ultimately plays music so that he doesn’t have to work in business or in a field or as a welder. “Music has soul,” he said and soul appears to be important to him. Then again, his father grows wheat, barley and Canola, arguable soul food when he describes it as “bread, beer and canola oil.” Come out and hear all about it in his new single The Country Where I Come From, the first of the two songs on the newly minted vinyl, and a follow up to his debut album The Last of Our Mountains. Mike Edel plays Habitat tonight, Oct. 25. Tickets are $9.50 available online at www.thehabitat.ca or at the door, 248 Leon Ave. jsmith@kelownacapnews.com

t will be interesting to see how film historians will eventually regard Cloud Atlas. For those expecting a scifi movie like The Matrix, especially since it is from the producers of that movie, it will offer a much different experience.

MOVIE GUY

Rick Davis

So far, more critics like it than dislike it, but this epic story that explores the actions and consequences of individual lives that impact one another throughout the past, present and future may polarize audiences. The ensemble cast, which includes Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Jim Broadbent, Jim Sturgess, Susan Sarandon and Hugh Grant, each appear in multiple roles as the stories move through time. The movie is said to be challenging to watch but viewers will ultimately be rewarded with stunning visuals and an ending that pays off. It is showing exclusively at the Grand 10 Cinemas. I was going to write off Chasing Mavericks as simply another inspirational sports story until I learned that this true-life tale of surfing phenom Jay Moriarty was directed by Curtis Hanson. He not only wrote and directed the great L.A. Confidential but also directed Won-

Volunteers needed to tackle paperwork

rion Therapeutic Farm wants to give its volunteers a leg up by taming a binder full of volunteers. There’s no debating this successful East Kelowna therapy program has grown astronomically in its three short years. Now accommodating a volunteer membership of 130 dedicated souls, and servicing over 100 riding clients weekly, the farm has hit a stumbling block. Its leadership has secured a property to work from, horses, on-site housing and a petting farm, but the paperwork is snowballing. As such, the farm needs of a very special person capable of taming “binders of volunteers.” They’re kidding—it’s just one binder. Just as the horses need exercise and the clients need appointments booked, the farm needs a volunteer with the time and energy to take stock of those who have already stepped into the ring to help. Anyone with keen computer skills, an eye for organization and creative problem solving would be a real asset to this growing operation. Therapeutic riding provides strength training and balance work for those with mobility issues, and social interaction and cognitive en-

gagement for those with developmental disabilities and mental health issues. Arion Therapeutic Farm is always recruiting for new volunteers and will launch a new membership drive with this project complete. Its clients range in age from five years old to 95 years old and require plenty of hands on deck to ensure each session is meaningful. To help with this unique volunteer management project or inquire about working at the farm, please contact Arion Therapeutic Farm at 778477-1006. If you have selected administration as an ‘area of interest’ on your volunteer profile, you will receive a notice in your email in-box about getting involved with Arion Therapeutic Farm.

Shrewd romance Davis from B2

father (Sean Bean) who have been evading forces that she does not understand. Her family’s mysterious past leads her to Silent Hill, a town with a nightmarish dark side. It is showing in Xtreme 3D at the Landmark Cinemas 8. Another creepy movie for Halloween is The Awakening, showing at the Paramount Theatre. Set in 1921 England, it is the story of hoax exposer Florence Cathcart who visits a boarding school to explain sightings of a child ghost. However, her disbelief in the supernatural unravels as what initially appears to be a schoolboy prank is becoming a phenomenon she cannot explain scientifically. Fun Size is best described as The Hangover for teenagers. It is a comedy about a teenage girl who is invited to a Halloween party but is ordered by her mother to take her oddball little brother out trick-or-treating instead. When she decides to go to the party anyway, she loses her little brother and must find him before her mother finds out. With three friends she embarks on an outrageous all-night adventure to find

her brother. Celeste and Jesse Forever is a comedy drama about a couple who met in high school, married young and are growing apart a decade later. Celeste (Rashida Jones) is a successful businesswoman and Jesse (Andy Samberg) is consistently unemployed so they decide to divorce while still on amicable terms. Although Jesse still loves her, he accepts this transition into friendship but as the reality of the separation sets in, Celeste slowly and painfully realizes that her decision may have been impulsive and selfish. Most critics are calling this a shrewd romantic comedy and heaping praise on Jones, who also wrote the screenplay. The Paramount also has two special events for Halloween. On Saturday at midnight they are daring to play The Rocky Horror Picture Show and on Halloween night at 7 p.m. they are playing Ghostbusters. landmarkwk_gm @landmarkcinemas.ca

Couple warns of high radon levels in homes

DOUG FARROW/CONTRIBUTOR

PLUGGED IN…Curt Kallen, energy manager with Gorman Bros. Lumber, is handed a Power Smart Leader Award from Kal Sahota, of BC Hydro. The award is Hydro’s highest level of customer recognition and was given to the lumber company because it incorporates energy management into several aspects of its business. From 2011 to 2012 Gorman Bros. saved 4.1 gigawatt hours of electricity, or enough to power 372 homes for a year.

After getting significant feedback from residents, the district is beginning phase one of improvements to Westbank Cemetery. The district will put $300,000 from its reserves toward the construction of three mausoleums, three columbariums, bases and wheelchair ramps. Ingrid Laube spoke to West Kelowna council in September to express her displeasure with the state of the cemetery. Council unanimously agreed to approve the Westbank Cemetery Strategy and work toward the improvement of an area one councillor described as “a devastating place to visit.”

is new or old. “The B.C. Ministry of Health recommends that every house in the interior of B.C. be tested,” said Chataway. But with a price tag of up to $3,000 to mitigate, Baytalan said some may not be willing to address the problem. “You can’t see it, you can’t smell it, you can’t taste it. People would rather view it as it’s not there,” said Baytalan. The Kleins have taught a few others the importance of testing for radon gas. They are currently lending out their kit to friends so they can test their homes. For more information on radon, visit healthcanada.gc.ca/radon or call 1-800-622-6232. To obtain a $30 test kit, call 1-800-655-5864 (LUNG).

Jessica and Joe Klein’s house in Peachland currently has low radon levels. But not long ago, that wasn’t the case. After hearing about the danger of high radon levels, Jessica convinced Joe to have their 110-yearold home tested. The Kleins hung several test pucks throughout various areas in the house for six months. Then the couple sent the pucks away to be analyzed. The results were shocking. Levels in certain areas of the house were as high as 55 picocuries. Health Canada states on its website that anything over five picocuries can pose a health risk. “We knew we needed to do something about our home,” said Jessica. The Kleins spent about $2,000 to reduce the radon. They retested their home after the mitigation work was done and found the levels had dropped to 0.3 picocuries. The couple agree the work was worth it. “We’re noticing health benefits already—that’s in less than a year,” said Joe. Health Canada defines radon as a radioactive gas formed naturally by the breakdown of uranium in soil, rock and water. It is invisible, odourless and tasteless. It’s not much of a concern outdoors, but can pose a threat if high levels accumulate in an enclosed space. According to the British Columbia Lung Asso-

ciation, radon gas decays to form radioactive elements that can be inhaled into the lungs. In the lungs, the process of decay continues, creating more radioactive particles that release small bursts of energy. That energy can be absorbed by nearby lung tissues, damaging lung cells. The damaged cells could potentially result in cancer when they reproduce. A recent statement released by the United States Environmental Protection Agency suggested radon caused more American fatalities last year than carbon monoxide, fires and handguns combined. Greg Baytalan, an air quality specialist with Interior Health, said there is a clear lack of knowledge among many local residents regarding the dangers associated with radon gas. Baytalan mitigated his own house in Glenmore after discovering high levels, and said it’s important for everyone to test their dwellings. “You’re breathing this gas in and these particles are going to get stuck in your lung—then they’re with you for life,” Baytalan said. In the early 1990s, changes were made to the building code to ensure new construction conforms with radon control measures. Peter Chataway, who does architectural design and is well-versed in risks associated with radon gas, said homeowners should still conduct tests regardless of whether the house

WESTSIDE ▼ HALLOWEEN

Pumpkin walk at Gellatly farm Westside families will have the opportunity to dress up for Halloween twice this year. This Sunday Gellatly Nut Farm will host its annual Spooktacular Halloween Pumpkin Walk. Participants are invited to drop off carved pumpkins—with an LED candle inside—from 3 to 5 p.m. Sunday. From 5 to 8 p.m., residents are invited to try out their Halloween costume by wearing it to the park and viewing the lighted

pumpkins lined up along the pathways. There will also be an opportunity to vote for the best carved pumpkins. “This is a fun competition for families, schools, businesses and sports teams that want to show off their pumpkin carving creativity. We’ve got some great prizes to award,” said park interpreter Nicole Marzinzik. Treats and hot beverages will be provided and visitors will have the chance to have their pic-

ture taken with West Kelowna firefighters beside one of their fire trucks. The Royal Astronomical Society will also be on hand with equipment that, if the weather cooperates, may allow the public to get a glimpse of the moon, star clusters and galaxies. “This year with the assistance of West Kelowna Community Policing volunteers, we’ve increased the number of people on hand to help direct traffic and vehicles into appro-

priate parking areas,” said Regional District of the Central Okanagan communications officer Bruce Smith. Smith added people should avoid parking on local streets to reduce congestion. The event is free, but guests are encouraged to bring a donation for the West Kelowna Food Bank. For more information, visit the regional district website at regionaldistrict. com/parks.

West Kelowna receives grant of $3,719 from KidSport BC KidSport BC has given West Kelowna $3,719 to help ensure fewer children get left on the sidelines. Westside-Kelowna MLA Ben Stewart presented the cheque to West Kelowna Mayor Doug Findlater on behalf of KidSport BC last week. The organization provides grants to community KidSport chapters so kids are given the opportunity to experience the benefits of organized sports. KidSport helps remove financial barriers that prevent some children from

playing organized sports. The grants help cover the cost of registration fees for an entire season. This year has been impressive for the West Kelowna KidSport chapter. The program hosted its annual hockey equipment swap Sept. 9 and received $2,035.50—nearly double the $1,200 raised in 2011. A further $454.10 was raised from barbecue donations and that amount was matched by Ultimate Hockey in West Kelowna.

Input sought on district cultural plan The District of West Kelowna is asking the community to help define culture as the municipality works to develop its first Cultural Plan. West Kelowna culture is rooted in events such as Westside Daze, Art in the Park and Music in the Park, which enjoyed a successful first run in Memorial Park this past summer. The district will incorporate existing events in the Cultural Plan and develop a strategy for events and festivals, but the municipality also wants to know what else the community wants to see incorporated in the Cultural Plan. The action-oriented document will provide future direction, a vision statement, policies, priorities and recommendations to guide cul-

tural development in the district for the next 10 years. The first stage of the plan’s development is to seek input from residents, business owners and stakeholders. The first way of gathering this input is through a community survey. Residents can visit districtofwestkelowna.ca and click on the Cultural Plan event item on the homepage to find the link to the survey. The questionnaire will take about 10 minutes to complete. The deadline to provide and submit input is Nov. 12. The second way to contribute is by participating in the district’s photo contest. Images should depict places,

people, art, music, events and festivals that best represent cultural life in West Kelowna. Visit the district’s website and click on the Cultural Plan event item to read the contest rules and submit photos. That contest, which includes prizes for the best photos, closes Dec. 2. The district’s third strategy is to host an open house Nov. 21, 7 to 8:30 p.m., at Westbank Lions Community Hall at 2466 Main St. West Kelowna has also engaged the services of Millier Dickinson Blais Inc. to work with staff, the community and stakeholders to create the plan. The consulting firm has created more than 30 cultural plans for communities of all sizes across Canada.

▼ PEACE CONFERENCE

Middle East policy discussed The Biannual Southern Interior Peace coalition conference took place last weekend in Kelowna, with a wide-ranging review of issues surrounding Canadian foreign policy in the Middle East. Delegates from the Okanagan, Boundary and Kootenay regional peace groups joined interested members of the public in a lively discussion and debate. The conference discussion was prompted by the threat of another disastrous war in the fossil-fuel-rich area, as arms shipments, mercenary forces, propaganda campaigns and internal politics all play a part in escalating a tragic conflict. Conference participants voiced concern that Canadian foreign policy decisions were increasing the suffering of the people; making things worse, not better.

The government’s surprising decision to sever diplomatic relations with Iran, a step usually only taken as a prelude to war, and without consultation with the Canadian people through parliament, was an example of such policy. The tight relation-

ship with Israel, a nuclear armed state, and the implications of using NATO rather than the UN as an instrument of policy were also recurring themes at the conference. Resolutions resulting from the conference, including one urging a ban on the export of uranium

used for weapons, will be forwarded to the Canadian Peace Alliance as well as to the prime minister and government ministers. Check out the Capital News website online at : www.kelownacapnews. com

WESTSIDE â&#x2013;ź WRONG IDENTITY

â&#x2013;ź PEACHLAND

Some names are more unique than others

Luau to help brain aneurysm survivor

ven with a biblically rooted first name, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never crossed paths with another Paul Hergott. A Google search pulls up Dr. Paul Hergott, gynecologist, in Sault Saint Marie, Ont. Add my middle name, though, and the search engine fails to find a match for me. A West Kelowna resident, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll call him Bruce, isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t so lucky. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no John Smith, but his name is common enough that he got a nasty surprise in the mail last week. It was a notification that a Capital One Bank judgment of a little over $2,800 had been registered against title to his home. Capital One has gained some notoriety

ACHIEVING JUSTICE

Paul Hergott about how generous they are with their high interest credit. Bruce, born in 1924, has never taken them up on that generosity. But there it was, in black in whiteâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a Vancouver Supreme Court Registry certificate of judgment naming Capital One Bank as plaintiff and Bruce as the judgment debtor, a judgment that had been registered against the title to his West Kelowna home.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;

Bloody hell. Bruceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s daughter tracked down the Vancouver law firm that had registered the judgment. They requested that Bruce send them copies of his identification. Yeah, right! Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve already thrown a judgment against title to my home, armed just with my name, and you want me to send you my identification? What do you do when you have a legal problem? You consult with a lawyer. Bruce did just that. He came to me. I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t typically take any time giving advice about legal matters that donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fall within my very narrow practice area of personal injury cases, but I took a few minutes

THATâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S ALL IT TOOK TO GET A PROMISE THAT THE JUDGMENT WILL BE REMOVEDâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;A COUPLE PHONE CALLS

to explain to Bruce that lawyers are too darned expensive and that he should try to resolve the clear administrative error on his own. As I was poised to brainstorm suggestions of what he could do without ending up with a huge legal bill, I imagined myself in his shoes and decided to make a couple phone calls.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all it took to get a promise that the judgment will be removedâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a couple phone calls. It may be some time, though, before the machinery that placed the judgment will get around to actually removing it. It made for a very stressful few days for Bruce; stress that would have been avoided had a modicum of care been taken by Capital One Bank or their lawyers. Unfortunately, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no recourse for Bruce to recover compensation for that stress. Even if there was, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have to advise that lawyers are too darned expensive to get involved to pursue it. This column is intended to provide general information about injury claims.

Mt. Boucherie Secondary School Community Connection October 2012 Q MBSS Global Service Club

Gandhi Peace Award recipients BY ALLISON BROWN This year in B.C, two out of four Gandhi Peace Awards for youth went to two grade 12 students from Mount Boucherie Secondary: Brianne Moore and Jasmine Peachy. According to the British Columbia Teachers for Peace and Global Education, the award was created to, “recognize and reward secondary school youth who exemplify non-violence, compassion, service to community, simplicity, humility, and who show an understanding of “the big picture” politically, socially, philosophically, and spiritually.” Both students attended the presentation ceremony October 19th, during the B.C. Peace and Global Educators annual conference at Eric Hamber School in Vancouver. Brianne received this award

Un-defeated Bears have their work cut out for them BY ERIK WANNOP The Mount Boucherie Bears really have a target on their back going into game ﬁve of the regular season. At the moment the Bears have four wins and zero losses, with only eight points against them and 134 points for. Mount Boucherie is the favourite to win the conference which makes the Kelowna Owls even hungrier to beat the Bears. After the Bears dominated the Owls 37-0 in week two of their regular season, the Owls are keen on putting a halt to their undefeated season. Suffering injuries to all-star linebacker/running back Keagan Hughes (broken ankle), and also two provincial top defensive backs Cameron Spence (separated shoulder), and Teagan McRae (torn ACL), the Bears will be competing with a fairly weak squad. Last week

international causes, and also for her time spent in India during the summer to assist

the Bears faced the Salmon Arm Golds on the road where Hughes suffered his injury. Without one of their top linebackers, and playing a very shaky game, the bears managed to defeat the Golds by a score of 42-8. Touchdowns coming from fullback Carter Young who got in the end zone three times although one got called back. Joe Court also contributed with a remarkable 92 yard run for the score late in the game. The Bears then faced the injury ridden Rutland Voodoos, who they already beat 35-0 early in the season home opener. Coach Mike Godwin knew his team would have a hard challenge this week knowing that any slip-ups this late in the season would be fatal. Mt. Boucherie trucked through and after a very shaky opening half, pulled it together in the second half to bring home a 20-0 win. This marks the third shutout on the season for the Bears and second against Rutland. Their next enemy will be the Kelowna Owls. Last time around in week three, MBSS blew out the Owls 37-0 although Kelowna was down their head coach. This was a great

in the buildings of schools. After high school, Brianne plans to attend Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario to become a doctor for ‘Doctors Without Borders’. Jasmine accepted her award for service in the community, her attendance in several clubs and for her 10 months spent in Vietnam at a school for homeless children. Jasmine plans to continue to volunteer and travel after school and later attend the University of Victoria to get her bachelor of education specializing in either French or special education. Both also have top academic marks and work ethics. Mount Boucherie Secondary School congratulates both girls on their success and hopes that they will continue to positively impact our community and the world.

empty gap in their team as they were very disorganized on and off the field. With the Bears being number one in the province, everyone is out to bring them down. Especially the Kelowna Owls who have a chance to this Friday at the Apple Bowl at 6:30 pm. Week three for the these two teams was the game of the week for the entire province, but this week is much more important and should be the game of the week since how much is riding on it. The talk around the league has been that the Bears have had a fluke of a regular season and that their 4-0 record with eight points against shouldn’t even be considered as a feat. So the Bears have their work cut out for them to show the province that this season is indeed not a fluke and that they can run with the coastal powerhouses in the playoffs in BC Place in Vancouver this November.

CAN YOU HELP?

Global Service Club hosted, a generous donation of $1,500 was given to the Westside Food Bank. Not only was a donation given which will support families of the Westside but also parents of Mount Boucherie students and community members were able to be brought together and take part in an event that contributed to the local community. The club focuses on many causes and is sure to help projects both locally and abroad. This being an event the club will continue as it always receives positive response from the community, however it would never have been possible if it was not for the donations made by Great Canadian Super Store, Starbucks and the Kelowna Packing House. •The MBSS auto department is looking for donations - in the form of vehicles - for students to practice and work on. If you can donate, contact Mr. Oloffs at 250-712-7040. Tax receipts provided. •The MBSS Hairdressing Academy is selling fresh,

Me to We inspires BY EVELYN MANSELL October 18th was a life changing day for 22 students from Mount Boucherie Secondary School. We were given the opportunity of a lifetime to go to We Day, a day of celebration and inspiration at the Rogers Arena in Vancouver.

We Day is the day where you go from living me to we, to stop thinking about yourself all the time and start working together to make the world a better place. With countless inspirational speeches from people like Craig and Marc Keilburger, Desmond Tutu, Holly Branson, Magic Johnson, Molly Burke, Demi Lovato and many more there was a lot to take home from the event. We Day evoked inner passion and encouraged grade 11 Boucherie student Allison Brown to continue her involvement in local and global fundraisers. “Being in the presence of Archbishop Desmond Tutu was just such an honour, not to mention all of the other great speakers, we were treated like equals who had a voice, not silly students who are written off by adults when talking about changing the world,” said Allison.

The passion and energy in the room gives enough hope that our future generation is going to make a difference. Free the Children, the charity that organizes We Day, is the biggest children helping children charity, and has been a huge part of the school community all over Canada for the past 12 years. Kassidie Cornell, a grade 11 student at Boucherie said, “It’s great to meet other youth who are interested in the same stuff as you and to know you’re not alone. Free The Children does that for us. It’s important to be encouraged to make a difference.” Being at We Day has such a strong effect not only on students but teachers, too. Each year we arrive home with new ideas and experience to share with our school in hopes of making a difference. We start this school year off with We Scare Hunger, previously Halloween For Hunger, instead of trick or treating for candy we will be collecting non-perishable items for the local food bank.

MBSS STUDENTS will be out on Halloween collecting donations for the local food bank. They will be wearing MBSS lanyards for verification.

ARE YOU READY TO BUY A HOME? FIRST - Do you have the financial resources? You should have five percent of the purchase price of a home for the down payment, but ideally even more. Are there other priorities in your life e.g. starting a new business, which require your savings? If not, buying a home should be on your radar. SECOND - Do you expect to stay in your new home for some time? Moving can be expensive and you will want to build some equity before having to relocate. Your job and home life should be stable.
