Murder trial recalls fatal run-in at party Kathy Michaels STAFF REPORTER
Ashlee Hyatt’s accused killer was portrayed by her defence lawyer Monday as a new girl trying to find her place among tight-knit partying peers, when things went terribly awry. On day two of the 18-year-old’s second degree murder and assault causing bodily harm trial, defence lawyers attempted to take the focus off the accused, and put some of it on one of the alleged victims who took the stand Monday. The now 20-year-old alleged victim of assault was called to the stand to speak about events of June 2, 2010, that ended with her sustaining a knife gash in one of her arms, cuts to her hands and scratches to her face. She testified she was attacked after Hyatt had already been fatally wounded, unaware of how things had gone so wrong or that anything had happened to her long-time friend at all. She recalled that the night started when she and four other friends, including the accused, had gone four-byfouring in the Glenrosa area. The alleged victim, the accused and another teenage girl drank freely from a bottle of Wiser’s whiskey, and two boys they were with drank beer. That lasted until just after 6 p.m. when they all decided to go to their San Clemente Avenue house to continue partying. Upon arrival, they met up with her younger sister and Hyatt. “Everyone’s behaviour was good,” she told the jury, noting she and the carload who went in tow, were feeling the effects of the drinks they’d been into, while her sister and Hyatt weren’t drinking at all. And, while things started well-enough, conflict erupted when the accused kissed a boy at the party. An argument was sparked, and it ultimately moved outside of the house onto the street, when a friend of the alleged victim’s mother went to the house to put a stop to the party. “I ran inside and started cleaning,” she told the jury. “I’m not supposed to have people over.” From there, her memories were vague as she was admittedly “pretty drunk,” but she remembers gathering her purse and going outside. “I saw (the accused) standing (in the street) with a knife in her hands,” she said, See Fatal A4

Therapeutic farm seeks covered riding ring Wade Paterson STAFF REPORTER
A covered riding ring is at the top of the Christmas wishlist for Arion Therapeutic Farm and its
hundreds of clients. Until now, the farm has used a barn next door, donated by Okanagan Equine Veterinary Services, for riding during the winter.
But using that facility has posed problems. The horses can’t be left at the barn so volunteers are required to walk the horses back and forth during winter conditions.
“It’s a good 20 minutes there in ice, snow, wind and nasty conditions. It’s a heavy burden for our staff and volunteers,” said Heather Henderson, program director at Arion Thera-
peutic Farm. Arion Farm is a nonprofit organization that utilizes 130 volunteers to

I now have an opportunity to help shape our continued growth as one of the best hospitals in the country.” Ertel replaces Dr. Jan McIntosh, who retired after serving as KGH chief of staff for 15 years. In his off-time, Dr. Ertel, a father of three daughters and married to a family physician, is an assistant team physician for the Kelowna Rockets of the Western Hockey League.
Second Swite trial has begun
An Okanagan man previously convicted for the 2006 murder of an elderly Penticton resident, was in court Monday for the first day of his retrial. Corey Wolf Swite was found guilty of the first degree murder of an 85year-old Penticton woman by a jury of his peers in 2009. He had been sentenced to life in prison with no eligibility of parole for 25 years, but last year was successful in a bid to have the conviction set aside, based on some procedural issues with the jury. Swite, who was 21 at the time of the alleged crime, will see the case decided on by judge alone this time.

Canadian Culinary Championships kicked off in Kelowna Monday Judie Steeves STAFF REPORTER
More than 1,000 food and wine aficionados will gather in Kelowna in February for a week to help raise money for up-andcoming Olympic athletes, as part of the Canadian Culinary Championships, which were kicked off in Kelowna Monday. Olympic gold medal figure skater Jamie Sale was there to talk about the importance of funding to help athletes focus on being the best. “This program is awesome because funding is provided to athletes in training, when it’s needed,” she said. Adequate funding is just one of the obstacles faced by athletes training for the Olympics, she noted, but without it, some can’t continue. “There’s no perfect word to describe what it’s like to win an Olympic medal,” said Sale, who won her medal in pair’s figure skating with her partner David Pelletier. “You work your whole life toward that moment.” She trained for 20

The chefs who compete in the Gold Medal Plates, a series of regional competitions across the
country which lead up to the Canadian Culinary Championships in February in Kelowna, are like Olympic athletes, she noted. lt’s all about raising money for programs such as the Own the Podium program which supports aspiring Olympic athletes. Competing this year

They provided appetizers to those attending the kick-off event at the Delta Grand Monday afternoon, along with wine tastings from the wineries their food will pair with at the regional competition. To date, $6.2 million has been raised for the Canadian Olympic Foundation through the event which concludes Feb. 8 and 9. It includes a mystery wine pairing at the Hotel Eldorado where chefs have to create a perfect culinary pairing of local ingredients to match a mystery Canadian wine; a black box competition at Okanagan College’s culinary arts department the next day; and then the championship grade finale that evening at the Delta Grand.

The Inn Home Support service started in 2008 to address the rising number of people living on the street. “We pair people up one-onone with advocates in the community…it’s sort of like a Big Brothers-Big Sisters thing,” said Tschritter. “They help them with
things like taking them to appointments, general companionship and also help them to not fall through the cracks.” According to Tschritter, the volunteers meet with clients on a weekly basis and keep an online log of the interactions so social workers can deal with problems before they become too serious. The local charity is now looking to the public to help it finish in the top three.

NEWS ▼ HYATT MURDER TRIAL
Teen insight into party revealed Fatal from A1 under questioning by Crown counsel Murray Kaay, adding that when asked later, she remembered nothing of what the knife looked like. She testified that she went up to the accused and said, “Give me the knife.” She resisted, and the two got into a fight. “I tried to grab (the knife) with my hands,” the witness testified. It’s unclear who intervened on the alleged victim’s behalf, but she said the knife was removed by a third party at some point. It was also during that scuffle that she said she took note of the fact that Hyatt was lying on the gravel with two people assisting her. Defence, however, contended that the situation was far less innocent and more akin to a well entrenched clique gang-

ing up on the accused when things went sideways. To get there, they highlighted inconsistencies in the victim’s testimony, and made a straightforward attack on her character. That started with lawyers sussing out the nature of their relationships. When asked, the witness conceded that she’d only known the accused for a couple of months, although she characterized them as friends. Hyatt, who died that night, had been her friend for years. The alleged victim was then asked if she was a “big party girl.” She testified that wasn’t the case. She drank and partied, “like any teenager.” Then she and the jury were handed a bundle of photos taken from her Facebook account, where she was depicted drinking and smoking pot in a variety of settings. Several run-ins with police for drinking in public were also highlighted. The fatal 2010 party, defence said, wasn’t the first time that there were parties at the Peachland house that ended in police action either, citing two other examples. Then there was the knife. In one statement to police, the alleged victim didn’t mention a knife. In another, she made it sound like she was very familiar. At the end of the day’s testimony, defence said the knife was actually from her home, and had the DNA of another known associate on it. It’s a slight departure from the narrative Crown Counsel laid out in his opening statements. Kaay told the jury of six men and six women, they’d hear evidence throughout the next two weeks that would highlight how Hyatt, 16, got in a fatal “confrontation, argument, and subsequent fight” with the accused. The name of the 18year-old accused and her alleged victim is protected under the Youth Criminal Justice Act.

The colour of a bell pepper depends on the variety and the stage of its ripeness. Most are sold in the mature green stage - fully developed, but not ripe. As they ripen on the vine, most bell peppers turn red and become sweeter. Bell peppers have no “bite” at all, since they contain a recessive gene that eliminates capsaicin. Instead, they have a mild tang and a crunchy texture.

final alignment through the Westside Road Interchange Project construction zone. According to Evelyn Lube, communications for the project, activities that will impact highway traffic are being scheduled during non-peak hours to limit disruptions and inconvenience to the public. From Oct. 29 to Nov. 12, all lanes of traffic are scheduled to remain open, but motorists should expect traffic pattern changes in both directions, which may result in slower moving traffic. Equipment will also be working between the northbound and southbound lanes. From Nov. 13 until late November, traffic pattern changes will occur with evening lane closures in both directions to accommodate final paving and associated works. Drivers should expect minor delays and equipment and traffic control workers on site. Paving operations are subject to appropriate weather conditions, which may result in scheduling adjustments. The 60 km/h speed limit remains in effect through the construction zone.

NEWS ▼ WEST KELOWNA PREMIERE
Documentary offers closure for boxing legend Mancini Wade Paterson STAFF REPORTER
Ray “Boom Boom” Mancini glances out a window of the Hotel Eldorado lounge, commenting favourably on the view of Okanagan Lake. Although it’s a dreary day with rain clouds looming, he seems to see past the weather and appreciate an area he hadn’t previously visited. Mancini is in town for the premiere screening of
a documentary chronicling his life and boxing career. The Good Son, partly based on Mark Kriegel’s book of the same name, illustrates Mancini’s upbringing in Youngstown, Ohio, his relationship with his father, his journey to become lightweight champion of the world and his life after a tragic bout against South Korean boxer Duk-koo Kim. One of the main reasons Mancini agreed to dig into his haunted past—
both for the book and the documentary—is because both projects focus on a bigger story than just the Kim fight. The Good Son also allowed Mancini to address questions that have followed him 30 years after the fight. In November 1982, Mancini was on top of the boxing world. The 24-1 boxer was about to defend his lightweight title against a confident Kim in front of
Frank Sinatra, Bill Cosby, Robert Goulet and thousands of others in glitzy Las Vegas. The fight was a sensational spectacle; Kim surprised many with his ability to keep up with the champion and land several key punches. As the match progressed, Mancini seemed to get the upper hand: He landed 44 consecutive punches in the 13th round. But Kim refused to give up and continued to fight back. Finally, in the 14th round, Mancini landed the knockout blow. “The fight itself was a great fight,” says Mancini. “But the outcome, there was nothing good about that.” Kim died five days later from brain injuries suffered during the bout. The event put a dark cloud over the sport and had a lasting impact on Kim’s family and Mancini’s career. Kim’s grieving mother committed suicide months after the death of her son; his fiancee,Young-mi Lee, was devastated. Pregnant with his child, she feared life without a husband and her son’s life without a father.
Mancini’s popularity dropped as did his endorsements and sponsorship deals. He went on to box in a few more matches throughout his career, but he would never regain the passion he once had for the sport. “I lost the love for it. I fought for righteous reasons at the beginning: To be the world champion for my father, to be a good representative of my city of Youngstown, Ohio, to be the best champion for boxing I could be. “After the fight, there was nothing righteous about it for me—it took all the love, all the passion, all the goodness away from me.” Perhaps the most emotional scene in The Good Son takes place when Young-mi Lee and her son, Jiwan, fly to Los Angeles to meet Mancini and his family for the first time. “That was important for Jiwan and it was important for me and my children…I wanted him to meet the last man who was in the ring with his father,” says Mancini. “I was apprehensive of course, but I was more nervous about meeting his mother.

As the film ended and the credits rolled, the audience stood to applaud the boxing legend and the filmmakers who told his story. Near the end of the
film, while staring at the ocean, Mancini says life is short and talks about how, over time, he has been able to move on and enjoy his. After the interview he glances out the Hotel Eldorado window once again and sips a glass of Mission Hill Cabernet Sauvignon, then turns to director Jesse James Miller and tells him how beautiful Kelowna is. It’s clear he’s a man of his word.

City manager saluted for his career Jennifer Smith STAFF REPORTER
Kelowna’ s city manager has been recognized internationally for his work. With 30 years of service in local government to his name—17 with the City of Kelowna—the International City Management Association chose Ron Mattiussi to honour with a “significant achievement in local government” award. The award was presented to Mattiussi in absentia at the organization’s 98th annual conference in Pheonix, Arizona on Oct. 10, 2012. Mayor Walter Gray followed the presentation by passing on the certificate at Monday’s city council meeting. Mattiussi said it was a surprise, he had no idea he had won the award.
UTILITIES DEAL CLOSURE COSTS It will cost the City of Kelowna
$800,000 to complete its electric utilities deal that passed through the alternative approval process last week. The funds will go to legal fees and due diligence costs, such as the study conducted by KPMG to determine whether the deal is in fact cost effective. It will be March before the papers are signed, should everything go according to plan. The City of Kelowna is proposing to sell its electrical infrastructure for $55 million to FortisBC, and will use that money to invest in the company. In presenting to council, Kelowna’s general manager of community services, John Vos, said he believes many of the 71 ballots collected in the alternative approval process to oppose the deal were in fact registering opposition to FortisBC’s smart meters. The smart meters are a separate issue being weighed by the utility company.

TRAIL UPGRADE The Apex Trail on Knox Mountain may be restored in short order. Monday afternoon, Kelowna city council gave parks staff members its approval to pursue a major grant through the Community Infrastructure Improvement Fund. The city would need to match the $100,000 CIIF grant with $100,000 from city coffers for the project to proceed. Restoration of the Apex Trail is considered the highest priority because it is the most popular trail in the park and has been eroded heavy use. The fund the city is applying to, created by the Minister of State for Western Economic Diversification, offers a maximum amount of $250,000 to cities. This is the second round of applications. First priority went to trying to secure funding for structural improvements to the Rutland Family Y.

Important to talk about tragedy
T
he B.C. Ministry of Education’s advice that teachers not show the Amanda Todd video in class, well-intentioned as it may be, ignores realities of modern-day life that contributed to the untimely death of the Port Coquitlam teenager. The fact is that more than 20 million people have already viewed the YouTube video in which Todd, 15, detailed the bullying which is believed to have led to her suicide on Oct. 10.
The video, in which Todd silently tells her sad story with a series of flash cards, went viral —in the hyper-accelerated time scale of the Internet—a very long time ago. In the aftermath of this tragedy what has been missing for most students is relevant discussion in the one forum where they supposedly receive an education to prepare them for the real world. It’s possible that Todd’s plight, which began with an unwise posting online—and was exacerbated by cyber-bully-
ing, physical abuse and blackmail – could provide some hard but necessary life lessons for teens. It could give immediacy to discussions of what constitutes bullying, and why it should be unacceptable. Instead, the ministry’s suggestion for dealing with a viral video comes across as ineffective vaccine. The Oct. 14 memo from the ministry to school boards speaks of concerns that showing the video might increase the risk of suicidal behaviour
among students who identify with Todd’s story. Clearly there is a need for sensitivity—but in creating her video and posting it online, Amanda Todd clearly sought to make her situation public. She exposed a tragic problem, and provoked discussion that could prevent other, similar tragedies from occurring. Perhaps it’s time we addressed some of the causative issues of such suicides, rather than letting our sensitivities sweep them under the rug.

Little new to get excited about in B.C. Liberals renewal
B
.C. Liberal delegates gathered for their convention on the weekend at the Chateau Whistler, the same luxury hotel where Gordon Campbell fired up the troops in 2008. At the time, Campbell led a front-running party to a third straight majority, while Clark is a struggling underdog pleading for unity to turn back an NDP tsunami. Hence “Free Enterprise Friday,” a discussion open to non-party members. Clark began with an upbeat
speech urging party members to “reach out our arms, open the tent and be as big as we can possibly be.” So did they? Dashing between three conTom current sessions, I Fletcher missed a fair amount of it, but there were some provocative suggestions to appeal to those inclined to support the resurgent B.C. Conservatives. An accountant spoke to a packed room about the growing unfunded liability of public sector pensions, most of which are still of the “defined benefit” variety. Based on
VICTORIA VIEWS
bond interest rates that have since sunk to all-time lows, these government-guaranteed pensions are now a free ride for those lucky enough to have them, funded by the taxes of private sector workers who in many cases have no pension plan at all. There was talk of passing a law that all new public sector hires be restricted to a “defined contribution” plan where the employee and employer contribute equally and the pension is based on what those contributions yield. This would provoke the mother of all confrontations with the B.C. Federation of Labour, but there was no evidence yet that this is going beyond the talking stage.
The resolutions continued the theme of confronting the labour movement, ritual combat that seems to be an inescapable part of B.C. elections. Delegates passed two motions, one calling for public sector unions to disclose what they spend on salaries, political activities and lobbying, and another advocating a ban on unions spending compulsory dues on political campaigns. Delegates rejected another motion that would have made membership in the B.C. Teachers’ Federation optional, an unwanted political declaration of war at a time when Clark and Education Minister Don McRae are looking to end decades of labour confron-
tation with the BCTF. There was a brief debate on a motion to scrap the carbon tax, sponsored by northern members who see it as unfairly punitive on those who endure cold weather and long highway drives for themselves and the goods they need to have trucked in. This was rejected too, after delegates were reminded that the tax now takes in more than $1 billion annually that is used to reduce business and personal income taxes. Scrapping it would amount to announcing across-the-board income tax hikes.The convention overall was high-energy and well-attended, but nothing new came out of it. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

LETTERS ▼ TRADE WITH CHINA
What’s the big rush for a China-Canada trade deal? To the editor: In his most recent column (‘Misunderstandings about Canada-China trade clarified,’ Capital News, Oct 19), MP Ron Cannan has dismissed public outcry against the CanadaChina Foreign Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement (FIPA) by declaring that members of the public have consumed “misinformation” found on the Internet and says the treaty will not hurt Canada. I think caution is required. Just as there are lawyers who dedicate their entire careers to researching, teaching and working with constitutional law, there are trade experts who dedicate their entire careers to investment trade agreements. Just because members of the public are literate and can read the various codified acts that make up the Constitution or the text of an agreement such as the Canada-China FIPA doesn’t mean we’ll understand much about them. Gus Van Harten, on the other hand, is a global legal authority on investment trade agreements. Having been on faculty at the London School of Economics and Osgoode Hall Law School at York University, his area of expertise includes international investment law, international economic law, international commercial arbitration, and public international law.
In recent days, Van Harten published an open letter to Prime Minister Stephen Harper and International Trade Minister Ed Fast articulating 14 serious concerns and numerous questions about this arguably risky treaty. He’s also given numerous interviews. Just google Van Harten FIPA and you’ll find an abundance of information, real information, on the Internet. Van Harten believes the treaty, if ratified, will disadvantage our country in terms of exposure to investor lawsuits. It will also impact provincial powers on natural resources, taxation, and land and property rights. And it will, he thinks, threaten federal legislative and judicial sovereignty. Ratification, due on or about Oct. 31, will bind Canada for a minimum of 31 years to the seemingly dangerous and unconstitutional treaty. Van Harten points out that there have been no public hearings or provincial consultations on the treaty. He concluded his open letter to Harper and Fast with a plea that they delay ratification until the treaty receives the study it requires. The government responded by dismissing his concerns and refusing public hearings. If Canadians can’t be given public hearings, you would think we might be allowed a little parliamen-
tary debate on the matter? With no regular debate scheduled before the treaty’s ratification, MP Elizabeth May called for an emergency debate, but was ignored by the Harper government. On top of the lack of democratic process, which is bad enough, what’s the hurry? So rushed is the approach to finalizing the deal, the government will not have completed an as-
tional issues are resolved. Or the public can pressure federal and provincial elected officials to stop the unnecessarily speedy ratification of an exceptionally dubious and consequential trade treaty and undertake what should have been undertaken long ago: public hearings, provincial consultation and parliamentary debate. Dianna Varga, Kelowna
Trade deal proceeding too fast To the editor: Re: Canada-Chinese Foreign Investment Protection Agreement (FIPA) I am shocked and outraged that Canada’s Prime Minister Stephen Harper would even consider a deal that essentially “sells” Canada to China investment interests. What in the world is he thinking, he and his cronies on Parliament Hill? It is so discouraging that we Canadians have to constantly be on the lookout for violations of our rights from the actions of our elected officials. I was just pointing it out to my daughter recently that I just don’t see why we have to spend our time and energy and money to fight the decisions they make that hurt, not help Canadians. What is in it for them? There has to be some reason why Harper considers it okay to mess with our future and that of future generations. Has there been a debate or vote on this enormously important trade deal? Has the mainstream media been report-
ing on it? Is it a short-term deal on a trial basis? Will it protect Canada’s natural resources and environment? The answer to all these questions is a resounding ‘No!’ Alternatively, my answer is ‘Yes’ to these questions: Has this deal been brokered by Harper in secret? Do Canadians deserve to have a say in this deal? Could Canadians lose the right to the natural resources that belong to us for the next 31 years? Should these resources be used to benefit Canadians over others? Are we entitled to a share of these resources pursuant to international declarations and treaties on human rights? Is that share of the natural resources called patrimony? Canadians must wake up! Stop this deal now. We have less than a week to get our voices heard loud and clear. Get educated. Let your MP know you want more information before this goes to any kind of vote. Moira Drosdovech, West Kelowna
Kelowna’s downtown parkade proposal challenged as not appropriate for area To the editor: This is a great perspective offered by columnist
B.C. adopts softest impaired driving policy in Canada To the editor: I had to chuckle when I read Tom Neave’s recent letter titled, Decriminalizing Pot Would Be A Moronic Move. Not because I agreed or disagreed with the premise of his letter, but because of the comparison he used. Neave suggested that decriminalizing pot would be about as ridiculous as decriminalizing child slavery or decriminalizing impaired driving. What Neave has failed to realize is that impaired driving has already been decriminalized in British Columbia. In fairness to Neave, he wouldn’t know that because the provincial government hasn’t told him, or any other voter, about that policy. Not surprisingly, when governments do things they believe the voters will approve of, they don’t hesitate to tell anyone who will listen. When they do something they know most people would be outraged by, they shut down and try to fly under the radar. That is precisely what is happening in B.C. The simple fact is that the Liber-
sessment on the treaty’s environmental impacts on resource development until a week after the treaty is ratified. Van Harten—who is not, he emphasizes, antiinvestment or anti-trade— says there remain two ways to delay the treaty’s ratification to allow proper study. Provinces can go to court, calling for an injunction until the constitu-
al government believes that they can no longer afford to prosecute impaired drivers. And so they don’t. If you drive drunk in B.C., unlike any other province in this country, chances are overwhelming that you will not be charged with a criminal offence. No one from the RCMP nor the government will debate that fact. The end result is that there can be no question that British Columbia has the softest impaired driving policy in Canada. It is not even close. Think about it this way. Many British Columbians will remember the mugshot of former Liberal premier Gordon Campbell a few years ago after his arrest on drunk-driving charges in Hawaii. His legacy, and that of the Liberal government, is that had his offence taken place in today’s British Columbia, he would not have to worry about his mugshot in the newspapers. Why? Because in this province, there would not even be a criminal offence. Wade Jenson, Kelowna
Alistair Waters on the City of Kelowna’s plan to build a new parkade (‘Downtown Kelowna getting lots of attention right now, Capital News, Oct. 9). But what is more important, that the city has land for sale in an area not really appropriate for an office building, or that the integrity and vision of the Cultural District be maintained? It seems like a sellout to me. And yes, there is park-
ing currently there now between the Memorial Arena/Military Museum and the Okanagan Heritage Museum, but there is a ton of parking elsewhere as well. A big parking garage between two cultural buildings. Wouldn’t that area be better used for something else? Soemthing more fitting with the Cultural District and the Simpson Covenant?

Donor support for UBCO science lab My information, The UBC Okanagan campus has officially opened a $3.5-million science lab that allows scientists to measure minute particles, scan them at the atomic level and determine their origin. The Fipke Laboratory for Trace Element Research (FiLTER), a stateof-the art interdisciplinary research facility, was formally opened with the naming dedicated to Kelowna geologist and alumnus Charles E. Fipke, whose foundation was instrumental in equipping the lab with the worldclass imaging equipment. “We can take an element fingerprint of a sample and determine where it came from or how it formed,” said John Greenough, a professor of earth and environmental sciences with the Irving K. Barber School of Arts and Sciences. “This lab gives us capabilities we never had before.” There are four hightech instruments tucked into the lab in the Charles E. Fipke Centre for Innovative Research. One of them is the Tescan Mira 3 XMU Scanning Electron Microscope. “It lets us scan material, magnify it up to onemillion times larger than the actual size, and produce a high-resolution image of the object,” said Greenough. Eagerly anticipated— but not yet arrived—is an electron microprobe featuring a high-resolution definition head so powerful it will be the first of its kind in Canada, also donated by the Charles E. Fipke Foundation. The other equipment, which performs spec-

Acquiring the equipment puts UBCO into the forefront of major research universities and provides capability to do contract research, as well as attract students to sciences and engineering. “I am pleased that projects like this continue to foster innovation in the Okanagan by supporting our region’s continued growth and development,” said local MP Ron Cannan. “Through our investments, we are translating knowledge into products, services and production technologies that contribute to creating jobs, economic growth, and longterm prosperity.” Among projects already under way with industry partners is an analysis of automobile wheel
rims for structural integrity. The equipment has a huge role to play in geology, says Greenough. The lab can examine ore samples carried long distances by glaciers or streams and help determine where they came from. The FiLTER lab is currently doing this kind of analysis on a platinum discovery. The lab has been entirely funded by donors— led by the Charles E.

any employers provide their staff with electronic devices with which to perform duties. From cellular telephones to laptop computers, these are now tools of the trade for many occupations. It is becoming commonplace that devices provided to employees are used for a mix of work and personal purposes. Employees make personal calls, send personal emails, download Internet content, and save personal files on those devices. Numerous sticky questions arise from this mixed use. One is the degree to which the employee has a reasonable expectation of privacy over his or her personal content. An Ontario court ruled last year that employees do have a right to privacy in relation to their personal content stored on an employer-provided device. Cole was an Ontario high school teacher who was charged criminally with possession of child pornography and unauthorized use of a computer. He had been provided with a laptop by his school for his use in teaching communication technology and in supervising a laptop program for students. He accessed a student’s email account, found nude photographs of another student, and copied them onto his laptop’s hard drive. A school technician later searched the laptop, found the explicit images and advised the school’s principal. The school then re-

quired Cole to turn over the laptop, copied the ob- j jectionable content onto a disc, and analyzed his online searching history. The laptop and discs were handed over to police. Reviewing this scenario, the Ontario Court of Appeal found that the “conventions and customary use by teachers” of the school computers were consistent with the existence of a reasonable expectation of privacy. Although it was a work computer owned by the school board and issued for employment purposes, the school gave the teachers possession of the laptops, explicit permission to use them for personal use and to take them home, and allowed them to use password protection. Critically, there was no clear and unambiguous policy giving the employer the right to monitor, search, or police the teachers’ use of the computers. The court found that the teacher’s right to privacy was modified, but not displaced, by the fact that a technician could and would access the teachers’ laptops as part of his role in maintaining the school’s network. Cole’s case recently made its way to the Supreme Court of Canada, which weighed in on the question of the extent to which employees have an expectation of privacy over personal data stored on workplace computers. In introductory comments, the court stated: “Computers that are reasonably used for personal purposes—whether found in the workplace or the home—contain information that is meaningful, intimate, and touching on the user’s biographical core. “Vis-à-vis the state, everyone in Canada is constitutionally entitled y

Keeping tabs on the company laptop Smithson from A12 to expect privacy in personal information of this kind. While workplace policies and practices may diminish an individual’s expectation of privacy in a work computer, these sorts of operational realities do not in themselves remove the expectation entirely…” In its detailed analysis of the situation, the court stated, “The context in which personal information is placed on an employer-owned computer is nonetheless significant. The policies, practices, and customs of the workplace are relevant to the extent that they concern the use of computers by employees. These ‘operational realities’ may diminish the expectation of privacy that reasonable employees might otherwise have in their personal information. Even as modified by practice, however, written policies are not determinative of a person’s reasonable expectation of privacy.” According to the court, “Whatever the (employer’s) policies state, one must consider the totality of the circumstances in order to determine whether privacy is a reasonable expectation in the particular situation.” In effect, what the court was saying was that a reasonable expectation of privacy applies to personal information on a workplace computer but that this expectation can be reduced (though perhaps not eliminated) by contrary workplace policies and practices. Although Cole’s case was decided in the criminal law context, the comments by the Court of Appeal will surely resonate in civil cases involving the workplace relationship. Several lessons can be derived from the Cole decision. First, if employers provide their staff with computers in part for personal usage, they should expect that content of a personal nature will find its way onto those devices. Second, if the employer wishes to restrict personal usage, it had better have a clear policy to that effect and it must take steps to enforce compliance with that policy. Third, in order to enforce compliance the employer should be periodically searching those computers to ensure personal content has not made its way on board. Whether most employers are prepared to take these steps remains to be seen. In all likelihood, many will simply accept the fact that personal content on workplace devices is a sign of the times we live and work in.

We can stay active in the future by being active during our life time. Exercise is vital to maintain bone and muscles mass, strength and balance. We start to lose muscle and bone mass as we age—we must continue to wage the war against loss of strength and future mobility issues. Being active is the best way to continue to stay active as we age. Stress is a word used every day to explain worry, concern and depression. It is as important to spend time focusing on
our brain as it is to focus on our body. There are many techniques available to manage and decrease stress. Google “how to reduce stress,” and use a technique that suits you. Exercise, meditation, yoga and positive thinking are all stress reducers that cost nothing out of your pocket book. There is no point in worrying about something you have no control over—a wise person told me that 30 years ago. We all want to stay sharp and not lose our
minds as we age. People use to think going senile was part of the aging process. Keep your mind active—exercise it regularly. Do cross word puzzles and Sudoku, read a good book, join a book club. We keep learning. We may not learn the same way as when we were younger. With our years of accumulated knowledge and experience, plus a willingness to bend the rules—we continue to challenge ourselves. Most older adults do
not want to be seen as “set in their ways.” With the advancement in computers and technology, we now have quick and efficient online communication to family and friends and online courses. Stay in regular contact with positive people. Hang out with young people as much as you can— the young people in your life will love it as much as you do. You can learn from them and they can learn from you. Many retired people are as busy in retirement as during their work-
ing years. Older people are productive members of the community they live in. Older adults have higher rates of volunteering than any other ages. Volunteers can live up to 10 years longer than non volunteers. Focusing on others gets us away from focusing on ourselves. Be happy, smile and the world smiles with you.

Communicating with the angel investors and entrepreneurs
I
want to draw your attention today to a very important aspect of our Okanagan life— the socio-economic condition of our region. Not wishing to appear preachy this week, I would like to offer my thoughts once again about the need to encourage entrepreneurial activity in rural regions as the Okanagan. As policy makers and rural development practitioners strive to develop strategies to sustain and enhance our rural economy, increasing entrepreneurship in all of its forms has risen to the top of the list. Accordingly, to many researchers, such as myself, in this entrepreneurship world, while rural communities need entrepreneurs to revitalize their

ENTREPRENEURIAL SPIRIT
Joel Young economies, entrepreneurs are dependent on our regional landscapes for access to capital and other relevant professional services. Today, I would like to tackle some basic information about entrepreneurship and angel investment and the interdependence of both, recognizing that the challenges lie in their ability to embrace each other’s unique needs. Entrepreneurs who start and grow new ventures create a majority of the new jobs in our nation. To obtain start-up capital for their ventures, most entrepreneurs look first to family and friends. But, this channel of capital infusion is gener-
ally less than is attractively required. To grow their ventures and comfortably assure a ride over the launch “hump,” entrepreneurs need more financing input. Angel investors fill a critical need left void by venture capitalists, who invest less than two per cent in seed and start-up ventures, and tend to focus on much smaller later-stage ventures. But, here lies the rub—although angels have been investing considerable amounts of capital in our nation per year for many years now, they are a little known and little understood source of financing for entrepreneurial ventures. This is about to change dramatically in our Okanagan region. So, who and where are the angels of which I write? Angel investors tend to be exited entrepreneurs and retired businesspeople who invest significant time in their portfolio companies as advisors, coaches and
mentors as well as on the boards of directors. As most entrepreneurs have seemingly never run rapidly growing companies, angels bring invaluable skills and experience to the enterprise genre. But ironically, entrepreneurs, including those I have met and worked with in this region, have had trouble finding angel investors. Because most solo angel investors rely on other angels and experienced service providers for “deal” flows, they often remain “under the radar” for many entrepreneurs in this valley seeking funding. Once again, this is about to change. Interestingly, many solo angels are joining up with other organizations as slowly being evidenced the past year or so in the Okanagan, there is room to grow and expand the playing field for angel investment and entrepreneurship. With confidence and much pleasure, this is changing…now.
Angel organizations have a broader base of skills, experiences and contacts which ought to make the plethora of entrepreneurial hopefuls salivating of their newfound existence. The emergence of angel investors to teach us an help us become knowledgeable in their methods, defines a critically necessary crossroad for this class of investment and offers to make great strides in advancing the field for our Okanagan aspiring entrepreneurs today and for the future years to come. As your entrepreneurial columnist for the Okanagan area, I am very pleased and excited to report that Canada’s top angel investment group is about to open a chapter in Kelowna in November 2012 with a half-day day information forum on Nov. 15 The group, VA Angels, formally Venture Alberta Forum, is taking the concept to Winnipeg, Calgary, Edmonton and Kel-
owna, and is one of the most active angel groups in Canada. It was chosen recently by Harvard Business School as one of only two angel groups in Canada to participate in a study on global angel investment activity. A pretty nice testimonial I’d suggest. So, along with our Entrepreneurs Society’s Entrepreneurship Conference on Nov. 22 and 23; an impending regional entrepreneurship strategy coming soon; a second entrepreneurship television vignette series - and now, the emergence of angel investment chan-

nels as never before witnessed in the Okanagan, I’d say entrepreneurship is fast becoming more alive then ever.

Without the help of Western Economic Diversification Canada, the Canada Foundation for Innovation, and the Government of British Columbia we would not be in nearly the same fortunate position we find ourselves in today.” “This is an example of the important role that world-class infrastructure can have in creating research-driven growth in Canadian communities,” added Gilles G.

The torch has been passed on to her children as Dellalee teaches young mothers baby sign language and Deloris is an interpreter for the deaf and travels the world. Grace is driven to help people in her community no matter what her age is—it’s in her nature. I need to share a few things about Grace and

Blue Heron Villa resident typifies what it means to help the lives of others Award from A16 her past accomplishments because I think all her work and dedication over the years has made her the person she is today. Grace was born and raised in Nelson, she was married and became a mother at 16. She says her life began when she had her children—she has six children, with four being adopted. She moved became a single mother and moved to Alberta when she was 23. She took night cours-
es at university while raising her children. Grace was a single foster mother to 200 children over a 25 year span. She introduced and ran a foster home for street children. Grace was involved in Scouting for 20 years beginning in 1967. During that time, she introduced the Beaver program as well as the first deaf Cub pack in western Canada, and twice held the position of public relations director. Grace was twice nom-
inated Mother of the Year (Calgary in 1968 and Edmonton in 1982). Grace managed to work as well as generously volunteer her time to projects she believed in; when she lived in Calgary she worked for the radio station CFCN where she was a hostess to the radio announcer. When she lived in Edmonton she worked for Edmonton Home Services as a supervisor for the outreach program providing services to people with special needs.
Grace was also an entrepreneur. She owned and operated Altagal Hostess Services, a modeling agency. She employed 20 models and coordinated fashion shows for organizations. Her volunteer work included five years as a Big Sister and 1,000 hours at the Edmonton General Hospital. She became the coordinator of volunteer services for the Edmonton General Hospital, where she met her men-
tor, her children’s surrogate grandmother, Sister Michaud, her best friend. Another proud moment was at the Edmonton General Hospital in 1984 when she was party of the security detail for a hospital visit by Pope Paul. Grace moved back to Nelson once her children were raised. She was looking for a well-deserved rest, which lasted about three months before she began foster parenting once again. She was a foster par-
ent for another five years before she actually retired. Grace moved to Winfield in 2009 to be closer to her daughter Dellalee. Once settled in Lake Country, she began volunteering for Kiwanis and Lake Country Senior Housing Society as a board member. She spent many hours with the society planning an assisted living site which has evolved into Blue Heron Villa, which she calls home today. Grace has written two
books, one on her family history and the other is about prostitution and girls at risk. I hope I have captured what a wonderful, kind, caring and loving person Grace is, When you ask her about her life she says she can only describe it as a tapestry. All I know, and I know other Blue Heron Villa tenants would agree with this, is that we are so grateful for her generous and giving spirit of Grace Faurot.

Mt. Boucherie nail down top spot with dramatic win over Kelowna Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER
As B.C. high school football classics go, Friday’s matchup between the Mt. Boucherie Bears and Kelowna Owls couldn’t have been too far from the top of the list. In a showdown for top spot in the Okanagan AAA Conference between two longtime rivals, the unbeaten Bears (5-0) prevailed 26-23 in dramatic fashion at the Apple Bowl. With the Owls (3-2) leading 23-20 and with just over a minute to play, Boucherie quarterback Josiah Joseph hooked up with Spencer Humes on a 27-yard pass for the winning points. Despite some key injuries and a few mental errors, coach Mike Godwin’s Bears found a way to get the two points and clinch top spot. “It was a little stressful,” said Godwin. “We had some guys get hurt (Joe Court and Peter Briker) and we turned the ball over too many times. You want things to be perfect, but they never are. We pulled it off and got the win, so that’s what mat-
ters.” The Bears jumped on top in the second quarter with back-to-back touchdowns from Briker, both on passes from Joseph to make it 14-0. Shawn Gordon connected with Eli Haynes to get KSS on the board and it was 14-7 at the half. The Owls got even in the third quarter when Nathan Brown electrified the crowd and his teammates with a 58-yard TD run. But on the ensuing kickoff, Briker broke loose for an 85-yard run to score and make it 20-14. In the fourth quarter, Hudsen Anderson’s major and a Callum Reid field goal gave the Owls their first lead of the game, setting the stage for Humes’ winning score. “Good clean game which could have gone either way at any point,” said Owls’ coach Shane Sommerfeld. “The second half may have been the best high school football game seen in a very long time.” The Bears will close out the regular season Friday against Salmon Arm, then host a playoff game on the weekend of Nov.
16 and 17. The Owls will finish up against Rutland this Friday, before heading to the Lower Mainland for a first-round playoff game the following week. In other action, the Rutland Voodoos overcame two early turnovers and a 10-0 deficit to defeat the Salmon Arm Golds 27-10. Devon Doherty moved to tailback for the Voodoos and produced 202 yards rushing and a pair of touchdowns. No. 1 quarterback Keith Prescott returned to the lineup after missing three games with injury and completed seven of 17 passes for 133 yards. Kyle Hillier scored the other Voodoos’ major on a 51-yard interception return. On defence, Connor Quinn led the way with six tackles and two sacks. The Voodoos (2-3) will close out the regular season this Friday night against KSS. Rutland will travel to the Lower Mainland the weekend of Nov. 9 and 10 for the opening round of the playoffs, most likely against West Vancouver.
JUNIOR VARSITY The OKM Huskies junior varsity team earned its second win of the season, 46-0 over Westsyde out of Kamloops last Thursday. The OKM football team is in a rebuilding stage as last year there was no team at the school. This year many basketball players joined the football team, meaning many of the players are new to football. Still, the coaches utilized all the players and developed a game plan that led to numerous touchdown passes as well as a tough defense against Westsyde. OKM finished with a 2-2 record and will need some help from Valleyview if they hope to make the playoffs. In other junior varity action, KSS and Mt. Boucherie continued their clash on the gridiron last Thursday with the Owls earning a 21-0 win. After a scoreless firstquarter, KSS put together a 13-play drive in the second quarter culminating with quarterback Callum Reid throwing a nine yard touchdown pass to Seth Campbell. The extra point was

half with KSS up 11-0. Nearing the end of the third quarter, KSS’s Maliki Suppin blocked a punt to keep the ball deep in Bear territory re-
sulting in a 26 yard field goal by Reid. On the ensuing kick-off Aaron Lum scooped up a fumble and ran it back 20 yards for the touchdown.

Rockets ready to start home stand after successful Prairie trip Kevin Parnell STAFF REPORTER
After starting the Western Hockey League season with the majority of their games on the road, the Kelowna Rockets will return to Prospera
Place this week for a pair of homes games to start a four game home-stand. The Rockets are coming off a solid road trip to the WHL Central Division that saw them earn wins in Calgary and Red Deer along with a shoot-
out loss in Medicine Hat and a regulation loss in Edmonton to pick up five out of a possible eight points along the way. “We had a pretty good trip and played some good games,” said Rockets’ coach Ryan Huska. “We
got off to a good start in (a shootout loss) in Medicine Hat. It was unfortunate we didn’t get two points there but we played really well and it carried on from there.” The Rockets closed out their trip on Sunday
afternoon in Calgary with a convincing 4-1 win over the Hitmen that sent the team back home on a winning note. Huska said the team dug deep in what was an afternoon start playing its third game in three days and fourth in
five days on the road. It was the continuation of a tough schedule to start the WHL season that has seen the Rockets play 11 of its first 16 games on the road. “When we looked at the schedule we knew it would be a challenging
start with the travel and the number of games on the road,” said Huska. “It might have been kind of a blessing in disguise for our players because they

Heat women open season with sweep Year two of competition in the Canada West women’s volleyball couldn’t have started any better for the UBC Okanagan Heat. Steve Manuel’s squad, which won six games in 2011-12, opened the new CIS season over the weekend with a sweep of Thompson Rivers University. On Friday in Kamloops, the Heat rolled over the Wolfack in straight sets (25-15, 25-09, 25-18). Fifth-year outside hitter Alex Basso had an impressive night with nine kills and eight digs against

the WolfPack, while fourth-year outside hitter Myrte Schön contributed seven kills and six digs. On Saturday night, the teams met for a rematch in Kelowna for the Heat’s home opener and again UBCO prevailed 3-0 (2517, 25-14, 25-12) over TRU. A balanced Heat attack saw Kendra Wayling tally six kills and seven digs, while outside hitters Schön and Megan Festival added five and four kills respectively. Freshman setter Emily Oxland was a defensive force to be reckoned with in contributing six digs, while Katy Klomps collected two solo blocks and six block assists. “It’s nice to get the first couple of wins under our belt,” said Heat head coach Manuel. “Overall I’m happy with how the team is competing together, and I really like how many players are stepping up and making contributions in different ways.” The Heat returns to action this weekend as they

HEAT MEN The UBCO men came up empty on the opening weekend of their Canada West season, losing both ends of a home-and-home set to Thompson Rivers. On Friday in Kamloops, the Wolpack came out on top 3-0 (25-22, 2518, 25-16). Fifth-year outside hitter Riley McFarland had a solid game high of 13 kills, while fourth year outside hitter Greg Niemantsverdriet contributed nine kills and three digs over the course of the three sets.
On Saturday in Kelowna, a tighter contest saw the Wolfpack take it 3-1 (25,-17 21-25, 25-22, 25-18). Despite the result, many first-year Heat players showed promise, including freshman Kristof Schlagintweit who tallied 20 assists, and middle Jim Bell who supplied five kills and six block assists. McFarland led the UBCO team in kills on the night with 10, as the Heat struggled with consistency for much of the weekend “We have a lot of holes to fill,” said Heat libero Jeremy Fostvelt. “We had some poor execution at times. Up and down all weekend. And we have some things to work on, but we’ll figure it out.” The Heat will look to break into the win column this weekend, hosting the University of Saskatchewan Huskies on Nov. 2 and 3. Friday’s game is scheduled for 8 p.m., while Saturday’s game will begin at 7 p.m.

Huska said the team now has to take advantage of the good results on the road which has the team sitting at 8-6-1-1. “It’s about continuing to feel good about what we’re trying to do and focussing on one game at a time,” he said. “We have a very good team coming in here on Thursday (Kamloops) and we want to make sure we are trying to improve ourselves everyday.” After Thursday’s game against Kamloops, the Rockets will host Prince George on Saturday.

Tired Warriors team comes up short in pair of games on road
It was a tough travel weekend for the West Kelowna Warriors, who played in Penticton on Friday and in Prince George on Saturday and came away with just a single point to add to its B.C. Hockey League total. The Warriors lost 4-1 to Penticton on Friday night before heading north and battling Prince George into overtime on Saturday only to come out on the losing end of a 4-3 score.
Struggling with fatigue and some key absences to top players in Prince George, the Warriors were down by a goal late in the game but battled back to tie the game at 3-3 on a Brennan Clark tally with 4:19 remaining in the game. However the Spruce Kings would earn the win early in overtime when former Warrior Tyson Witala batted in the rebound of a Mitch Eden effort for
a Prince George victory. “We want wins” Warriors forward Seb Lloyd stressed after the loss in PG. “You don’t come to the rink to get an overtime loss or a tie. I don’t think it’s acceptable, even with some key absences.” Still, honoured as the third star in his home town, Lloyd knows his team had to dig deep even to earn a single
point on Saturday. “Every point counts” he said, “so those are still points at the end of the year that could make a difference.” Lloyd and linemate David Pope parted ways with the team after the game, as the pair head to Calgary for the upcoming Team Canada West selection camp for the upcoming World Junior ‘A’ Challenge. The duo is expected back when
West Kelowna kicks off a long homestand this weekend. Beginning on Friday, the Warriors will play six straight games at home. Eight of their nine November games will also be played at Royal LePage Place, setting up a key portion of the schedule just onequarter of the way into the season. The Warriors fell into third place in the BCHL Interior Conference with an 8-3-0-5 record.
▼ MIDGET HOCKEY
Local tournamnt ends with Kelowna-West Kelowna showdown It was Kelowna versus West Kelowna in the final of a midget tier-2 hockey tournament in Kelowna on the weekend, as the Kelowna midget Rockets hosted an eight-team event. After opening the tournament with a 3-3 tie against St. Albert, the Rockets rattled off four straight wins to claim the tournament title. Kelowna beat OHA 5-3 and Surrey 2-1 to advance to the semi-final where they came up against Ridge Meadows and earned a 6-1 win. In the tournament final against West Kelowna, goalie Taylor Herd was outstanding, allowing just a single goal in a 4-1 win.
••• A pair of weekend wins has cemented the Kelowna Jr. Rockets midget tier-3 team’s position atop the standings in Okanagan Mainline Amateur Hockey Association league play. On Saturday in Vernon, the Rockets skated to a 4-1 victory over the Vipers with Cole Williams, Lathan McKinney, Spencer Copan and Colton Horne scoring for Kelowna. Then on Sunday, at home against South Okanagan, Andreas Clark earned the shutout in a 2-0 win. Scoring for Kelowna were Cam McDermid and Nate Higgins. The tier-3 midgets now have five wins against zero losses in league play.
▼ KIHL HOCKEY
Defence points Chiefs in a winning direction Preaching defence first appears to be starting to payoff for the Kelowna Chiefs. The Kootenay International Hockey League team has won three games in a row, allowing just a single goal against in those games, to climb to within a game of .500. The latest victory came Sunday night when the Chiefs beat the first place Osoyoos Coyotes 5-1 in Osoyoos, improving its record to 7-8-0-0. “We’re pretty happy with the way we are playing,” said Chiefs coach Ken Andrusiak. “We’re trying to preach defense because we don’t have an abundance of scoring. It’s a work in progress, but we’re getting better.” Five different Chiefs hit the score-sheet on Sunday as Brady Mende, Kyle Clerke, Kevin Lenzin, Jordan Salahor and Braeden Hikichi scored in the 5-1 win over Osoyoos. A night earlier at Rut-
land Arena. Salahor had a six point night in an 8-1 win over Summerland.
‘‘
WE’RE TRYING TO PREACH DEFENSE BECAUSE WE DON’T HAVE AN ABUNDANCE OF SCORING. Ken Andrusiak
Andrusiak says the team has been focussed on teaching its defensive system to the players and that may have been one of the reasons for a slow start to the year. “It takes time for the players to consume all the information and start playing the way you want them to,” he said. Kelowna is getting set for a busy weekend as it will play three games in three nights this coming weekend.

The Chiefs host Princeton Friday before traveling to Kamloops on Saturday. They will then return home Sunday to meet Summerland. “We have three games in three nights so it will be a tough weekend,” said Andrusiak. “Our goal is to get to .500 and then go from there.”

SPORTS ▼ PACWEST
Silver lining for UBCO Heat soccer Another solid season for the Okanagan Heat women’s soccer squad ended with another silver medal. The Heat settled for second best to Thompson Rivers University for the second year in a row, losing 1-0 to the Wolfpack Saturday night in the 2012 PACWEST final in Squamish. TRU striker Alanna Bekkering notched the lone goal of the game for the Wolfpack with just a minute to play in the first half. “We played well for
sure,” said second year forward Madeleine Greig “We just couldn’t put it away.” Third year Heat goalkeeper Christine Tallon made countless saves throughout the game, but the Heat offense was unable to capitalize on any goal scoring chances in the second half. Defender Hayley Carlson hit the crossbar on a header off of a cross from defender Jennifer Kidd, and Kirsten Dodds had a great opportunity inside the six-yard box, but the Heat were unable to
convert either opportunity into a goal. “Heartbreaking for us,” said Heat head coach Claire Paterson. “The girls left it all out on the field. I couldn’t ask for more. I’m very proud of them. It was only our second loss this season. We have come a long way in the past five years.” The Heat, which lost just once during the regular season, defeated host Quest University 4-1 on Friday to advance to the championship match against TRU. The Heat’s Tallon and
the WolfPack’s Bekkering were named the players of the game. Bekkering also attained MVP honours for the tournament for the second straight year, while Jennifer Kidd was named tournament all-star defender and Christine Tallon earned the title of tournament all-star goalkeeper. Bekkering was named top forward and Quest’s Jessica Freeman top midfielder. It was the third year in a row the Heat won a medal at provincials. UBCO captured bronze in 2010.

A Kelowna runner handled winter-like conditions to win the Whistler 50 mile Ultra race last weekend. An overnight dusting of snow in Whistler greeted runners in the Whistler 50, making the course more scenic but not slowing down the runners, including Kelowna’s Mel Bos. Bos ran a steady and focussed race to win the women’s competition and
to place second overall. Bos finished the 50 mile ultra in 6:34:10, just 11 minutes behind the winner, Jeremy Clegg of Nanaimo, who led from start to finish The race had a number of route changes this year, which included moving the start and finish to Whistler Olympic Plaza (site of the medal ceremonies at the 2010 Winter Olympics). The course this year
took the runners right through the middle of Whistler Village itself, then out on to the valley trail system, for four loops of a circuit winding through the valley on paved bike trails and groomed cross country ski trails. The cold conditions contributed to a higher than normal drop out rate, See Bos A25

North Westside residents are being told it’s too late to change water rates. The Regional District of Central Okanagan board has received a 300-name petition opposing water rates, which were adopted in March. “We are already spending the money,” said regional district board director Jim Edgson, who questions why the petition is just coming forward now. RDCO has implemented both a consumption rate, a user fee and an asset renewal fee for the Killiney Beach, Westshore and Upper Fintry/Shalal Road/Valley of the Sun utilities. That has led to a 190 per cent increase to fees. “Where was the impetus to keep these taxes at a reasonable rate?” said Diane Baldwin, with the North Westside Ratepayer Association, in a letter to Bill Bennett, B.C.’s community development minister. “Ratepayers remain outraged and consider this an unnecessary tax grab.” The association is asking Bennett to look into the method for resolving bylaw disputes, to encourage RDCO to meet with residents and negotiate water rates and to review RDCO’s tax policies and administrative fees. “Review why parcel taxes, called asset renewal fees, were introduced on every lot, with or without residents, absent a parcel tax bylaw,” said Baldwin in her letter. Baldwin questions the regional district’s communication process with residents. “Clearly the regional director and RDCO staff knew, or ought to have known, well in advance these increases would be a huge burden on affected taxpayers,” she said. Edgson, who represents the rural area, insists the process was completely open and public information meetings were held. “Nobody is happy about the rates but we have to keep in mind that people had been complaining that the water system needs upgrading. I warned people it was going to cost quite a bit,” he said. “The systems are old and getting to the point where they need to be maintained and upgraded. There wasn’t a plan in place.” While the water rates bylaw won’t be reversed, Edgson says RDCO may look at how user fees are implemented. “We will have to continue to look at what we’re doing,” he said.

CUISINE from Jude’s kitchen ghoulish good food Sometimes it helps to tease young taste buds to try something nutritious with a little bit of added fun—like these ghost-shaped, crisp biscuits. By topping this thick, filling soup with a bit of fun, you’re likely to get a whole lot of delicious and healthy harvest-season vegetables into the tummies of your little ones—and big ones too. That’s especially important just before they embark on an exciting adventure that involves running around being someone else and eating lots of sweets. Otherwise, they could wind up filling those growing bodies with nutrient-free candy instead of the good stuff. Much better to begin the adventure with a tummy full of good food. These shaped biscuits are rather like cookies but without the sugar so I’m sure your favourite ghosts and goblins—or is it Avengers and zombies—will go for them, even though they’re not dessert. When the kids were little I always tried to sneak whole grains, vegetables and milk products into every muffin, cake and meatloaf I made, just to add a little extra goodness into their diet. Now they’re doing it to their kids. For more kid-friendly ideas for meals, pick up a copy of my book, Jude’s Kitchen, with 200 recipes for every meal of the day, special occasions, snacks and desserts. It’s organized by the seasons so you can be inspired by what’s fresh and available locally throughout the year, including some delicious squash soups. It’s available at local bookstores as well as many local wineshops and the B.C. Wine Museum as well.

Ghostly Halloween Cheese Biscuits Once you’ve made this simple dough and cut out your biscuits, push the remaining bits of dough together and roll it out to just a quarter-inch thick. Use a ghost cookie cutter or do free-form cut-outs of ghostly shapes from the remaining dough and cook them with the biscuits. Cut up ripe black olives for eyes. They will be thin and crisp and make great Halloween toppings for soup. 3/4 c. (175 ml) sharp cheddar 1 1/2 c. (375 ml) flour 1/2 c. (125 ml) whole wheat flour 1 tsp. (5 ml) sugar 4 tsp. (20 ml) baking powder 1 tsp. (5 ml) salt 1/4 tsp. (1 ml) black pepper
1/3 c. (75 ml) olive oil 3/4 c. (175 ml) skim milk Pre-heat oven to 425 F. Grate the cheddar cheese. Combine all but the last two ingredients and mix well with a wire whisk. Add oil and milk and stir with a wooden spoon until you have a ball of soft dough. Turn out onto a lightly-floured board and knead a dozen times. Roll out to an inch thickness and cut with a drinking glass or biscuit cutter the size you want. Arrange them on an ungreased baking sheet with an inch between them. Bake for about 15 minutes or so, or until risen and browned. Makes about a dozen.
Spooky Squash Soup This soup is thick, tummy-filling and delicious, and it makes a great vegetarian meal, by substituting the chicken broth with vegetable. Top with a ghostly cracker or thin-cut biscuit to turn a Harvest Vegetable Soup into Spooky Soup. Serve with Rigamarole White, a casual, dry white blend from the Okanagan that’s a great match with the spices and the rich, but sweet harvest vegetable flavours of the soup. 1 large onion 2 garlic cloves 1 tbsp. (15 ml) fresh ginger 2 small butternut squashes 1 large potato 2 large carrots 2 celery stalks drizzle of oil 1 tbsp. (15 ml) whole cumin seeds
1 tsp. (5 ml) turmeric (opt.) 3 c. (750 ml) chicken stock salt and pepper Chop onion and mince garlic and ginger. Peel and chop squashes and potato into one-inch dice (two cups or so of squash), and slice carrots and celery. Drizzle a little olive oil into a large pot and heat the cumin seeds over medium heat, adding the minced fresh ginger. Add onions to the pot and soften them, then add the garlic, squash, potatoes, carrots and celery and cook for a minute or two. Add chicken stock, bring to bubbling, and turn down to a simmer, cover with a lid and stir occasionally, for 20 to 30 minutes. Mash with a potato masher, or blend with a blender for a finer texture. Taste and season. Serves 4-6.

Some simple guidelines for readers of Jude's Kitchen There are some basics about my cooking that you should know about in using the recipes created for Jude’s Kitchen. *I mean a large egg when a recipe calls for an egg *usually, butter and margarine are interchangeable *usually, salt and pepper is added to your taste *I generally use sea salt *fresh ingredients top frozen or canned
*organic products are my first choice *wherever possible, I use whole grains, not processed *include a variety of them, when possible *wherever possible, I use fresh herbs *fewer quantities of dried herbs are needed than fresh *I use extra virgin olive oil *I use grapeseed or olive oil to cook with
*I don’t deep fry *feel free to substitute. I do *have fun in the kitchen *encourage others to as well
