Volunteers attack invasive species By Barb Brouwer MARKET NEWS STAFF
The problem is bigger than shovels. That is a discovery made by some 28 people who showed up at White Lake last Saturday to try and deal with a highly invasive plant.
The volunteers met at 10 a.m. and spent two hours in the cold, wet, miserable marsh to try to at least reduce the spread of the yellow flag iris. A native of Europe, western Asia and northwest Africa, the yellow flag iris is extremely difficult to re-
move, says Carmen Massey, White Lake resident and Shuswap Trail Alliance stewardship program co-ordinator and board member. “We took about 10 bags of yellow flag irises and did enough to realize it is so hard to dig this stuff out, and invasive plants need to

be dealt with at the early stages,” she says, noting volunteers snipped seed pods off that had not dispersed their seeds, in an effort to reduce the plant’s vigour. “All invasive plant material has to be removed and disposed of properly at the
landfill, otherwise it will grow back.” Columbia Shuswap Regional District paid for the disposal and explained how it handles invasive plant material so volunteers would handle the plants in See Lake on page 3

Lake stewards pull together Continued from front the right way. After two hours of working in the cold, wet weather, volunteers gathered around a fire and talked at length about the issues around invasive species and how to deal with them. Participants also learned about the origins and problems with the non-native yellowflag iris. “There’s no real defined way of dealing with it,” says Massey. “Scientists are trying to figure out how to deal with these plants.” Massey says the plant’s root system is extensive and about the width of a thumb. “They get themselves established and create large mats.” Massey says volunteers came from all over the Shuswap, including Gardom Lake resident Denise Hearn. “But their ecosystem is a bit different,” says Massey. “White Lake’s marsh area is so big and the potential for spread is massive.” She says one of the positive outcomes of Saturday’s event was that three BC Parks employees “acted like good neighbours” by being involved and “really appreciated the commitment from the community. “They definitely want to hear what we’re doing and will be watching for its spread into the park.” As for White Lake residents and volunteers, Massey says bigger plans and bigger equipment will be
needed to deal with the iris. “For now we’ll try to control the plants’ vigour by clipping the pods and not permitting the seeds to fall into the water,” she says, noting the group will need to find funding to address the issue on a bigger scale. Massey says the seeds float and look like little pieces of corn from a cob. And anyone who sees them is asked to scoop them out. If they spot the yellow flag, people are asked to visit www.reportaweedbc.ca to advise the provincial government of the plant’s location. If you’re not sure what the plant looks like, visit another provincial website at www. coastalinvasiveplants. com/yellow-flag-iris. Massey says many of those who attended Saturday’s event were there to learn about the plant. “We need to deal with things strategically,” she says, noting the event was also a Trail Alliance Stewardship training event, which will mean the trail stewards will be better educated when they go out on trails. Saturday’s event was one result of a recent Wetland Keepers course, where participants acknowledged the iris and the dwindling turtle population as prime concerns. The White Lake Stewards, BC Parks, Peter Bellin, a turtle expert and retired university professor, is working with Trish

Carlin caters to Contenders The Contenders are on a roll and have no intention of stopping. Iconic Canadian singer-songwriter Valdy and his equally popular pal Gary Fjellgard return to the Shuswap at 8 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 8 at Carlin Hall. “Primarily, we like to come back because it’s the Shuswap and we have pals we like to visit,” says Valdy, who notes good friends, Kelly and Blu Hopkins, will open the show. After 11 years, the tour has not just gained momentum, but has become a valuable tradition. “We don’t have a lot of traditions except what would be commercial. As religion is leaking out of society, tradi-
tions are being missed entirely,” he says. “I like to put cultural traditions back into life. My life is not normal but having done this for 12 years, it’s one of the anchors in my year and I look forward to is as such.” Valdy says that while he does still tour the country, his only regular trail is through the Okanagan and Shuswap. And one of his favourite aspects of appearing at Carlin Hall is renewing ties with Kelly and Blu Hopkins and hearing their music. “They’re wonderful people and good singers,” he says. “They’re traditional in what they do.” Breaking away from tradition, Valdy announces a new “weird”
album. “It’s weird because it’s all over the map, but true folk music,” he says. From contemporary to ska, to jazz and rock rhythms, Valdy says the album has quite a different feel. The duo’s annual appearance is in support of George Ryga Week, as proclaimed by the province and produced by Ken Smedley. Asked why he supports Ryga, Valdy says he was a pivotal character in musical history. “He represented the disenfranchised, the people who didn’t have a shot at it,” Valdy says. “He was a social activist and I like to put him up the flagpole and encourage people to be activists.”

OPINION Speaking about a love of language Learning an additional language opens so many doors at so many levels. Those who can speak more than one language can attest to this, as can parents who have children who are immersed in learning a language other than English. Be it for future career opportunities or for better travel experiences, there simply is no downside to adding languages to one’s intellectual repertoire. Statistics Canada this week released language data from 2011 census and it shows, to the surprise of nobody, Kamloops remains an English-dominant community. In fact, the breakdown of languages spoken in homes in Kamloops has not really changed since the last census in 2006. However, it is interesting to note about one in almost nine people in the Kamloops census area cite a language other than English or French as their mother tongue. After English and French, the languages of German, Punjabi and Italian are most-commonly spoken in the city, followed by Chinese languages and Arabic. While not representing as rich a dialect domain as is encountered on the Lower Mainland, the fact 1,200 people in the area cite French as their mother tongue and another 8,400 speak one of an assortment of other languages does show the Kamloops region is not as linguistically bland as, perhaps, some may believe. From French immersion schools to an array of language electives available in our high schools, exercising the tongue and brain while expanding our communication skills can only enhance our lives. - Kamloops This Week

We require the whole picture As I walked along the banks of the Adams River the other day, hoping to catch a glimpse of spawning salmon (and, maybe even take a few photographic images), I did not see a single, solitary fish. Now I know it is not supposed to be a major run this year – in actual fact it is the so-called low year of the four year cycle – but to not see one fish. I left with no photos and a bad feeling. The Adams River sockeye salmon have been in decline since the early 1990s. Fisheries biologists with the federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO), politicians, and just about anyone else with an interest in the salmon, all have their own ideas and opinions as to the most likely reason for the decline in salmon stocks – everything from climate change to over-fishing and freshwater fish habitat destruction, to salmon farming. All I know is that the salmon are in trouble – big trouble. There are literally thousands of distinct salmon stocks, each genetically adapted to cope with the unique conditions of the spe-
THE GREAT OUTDOORS James Murray cific streams from where they came. Back in 1996, an American Fisheries Society report stated that 142 salmon stocks have become extinct in B.C. and the Yukon, and, another 624 stocks were at high risk... due primarily to habitat destruction. Salmon have also been hard hit by poachers, commercial over-fishing, and salmon farms which, according to some, have introduced diseases to wild stock from non-indigenous Atlantic farmed stock. (A number of independent studies have confirmed that fish, which have escaped from fish farms, have also successfully spawned with wild salmon ... something that the fish farm people said could never hap-
pen.) The problem is that there is currently little substantive legislation to protect wild salmon stocks in B.C. The Fish Protection Act is based on voluntary compliance and is focused on urban streams. The Forest Practices Code, recently gutted of environmental regulations, has simply failed to protect wild salmon habitat, while the Federal Fisheries Act fails to prevent logging and mining practices which contribute to fish habitat damage in general. Meanwhile, the Provincial Fisheries Ministry, which seems to have little initiative to protect wild salmon habitat, appears to be looking more toward a massive expansion of fish farms on the Coast. However, DFO does contend that their scientists are currently working to solve the mystery of why B.C.’s salmon stocks are in decline. It seems to me they’ve been working for some time and, as yet, have not come out with any firm statement. As a result of one particular five-year study, in which
DFO fisheries biologists were trying to determine the reason it has become “difficult” to predict salmon runs, the DFO stated “it used to be fairly clear how many salmon would survive and return to rivers a few years later: The prediction was based on the number of salmon that left the river. Now the process has become far more complicated. Salmon ecology is a complex puzzle. On the U.S. West Coast many salmon runs have completely collapsed... in B.C. the situation is only slightly better.” Do we really need a study to determine that the reason for the decline of our salmon stocks lies within a complex puzzle? My point is that science needs to come up with some hard facts before the salmon stocks reach the point where they cannot survive. I appreciate the fact that most things in nature are complex, but we are running out of time. We need to be able to come up with a whole picture, so that we can come up with a whole program to conserve and protect our precious salmon.

MAIL BAG Impact of recreation needs consideration I read with interest the article about Crowfoot Mountain in last week’s paper. I have lived at the foot of Crowfoot for most of the last 30 years and have witnessed the increasing pressures that this area, and many other back -country areas, are under. I think this trend is concerning and should be prompting a wider discussion about appropriate uses of public space.
Thirty years ago there was only one day a year, Boxing Day, when more than 20 snowmobiles would be on the mountain at once. Now there are 20 trucks in the parking lot on most days, many of those pulling a trailer that can carry several machines. Moreover, the mountain is now heavily used in the summer by dirt bikes, quads and a new machine that looks like a cross between a
jeep and a dune buggy. This use mirrors what we see on the water with an explosion in the number of motorized boats using the lake. But unless you live on a logging road, or own one of these machines, it is less visible. Beyond the ecological concerns, which are serious, I think this raises broader questions about the use of public land. A hundred years ago there were only a couple thousand
Gas prices gouge residents, visitors After looking at the gas price websites recently, it is evident that gas stations in Salmon Arm are overcharging motorists. While the price for crude oil has dropped down to about $86 per barrel and there are no major shutdowns of refineries in our region, since March we have seen gas prices continue to rise. Unlike most other cities further west or south, there is currently no price competition in Salmon Arm, with all stations selling regular unleaded gasoline at $1.33.9 per litre. As of Oct. 29, prices
have dropped in the last several days in cities between Vancouver Island and Kamloops. Prices per litre for unleaded regular in Salmon Arm average 14 to 19 cents more than Victoria, 1624 cents more than Courtenay, five-15 cents more than Vancouver (with its additional 17 cents per transit taxes), 7-22 cents than Kamloops, and about six cents high than Enderby to Vernon. Fuel sources here are usually closer to the refineries or tank farms than most other communities to the west of here. Supporting higher
priced stations only encourages consistently higher prices at the pump, increases the costs of goods in stores and really affects your wallet. With these high pump prices, many motorists will just continue driving through town and fueling up elsewhere, which will not benefit local businesses. While it is important to shop locally, in this case, to send a message to the oil companies, until prices drop dramatically, motorists would be better to fuel up their vehicles elsewhere.

cars in all of North America. Slowly, but inexorably, roads and highways suitable for car use have come to dominate the geography. These new vehicles are similarly colonizing public space with very little discussion about what this means for the land itself, our relationship to public space, and the future implications.

Retirement and Office Closing
SOUTH SHUSWAP Helping hand for pals with paws Food for thought: Resident willing to help keep pets with families. By Cavelle Layes MARKET NEWS STAFF
A kind-hearted Blind Bay resident firmly believes that tough financial times should not separate best friends – especially the ones of the furry variety. Dale Kerr has always been a pet person. When her last dog passed away, her husband decided it was time to live pet-free for a while to allow for traveling. Kerr tried her best but discovered she needed a canine companion by her side. “They are just so loving,” says Kerr, admiring her own dog. “I don’t think anything should stand in the way of a person and their pet, especially something like money,” she says. This is the thought that gave Kerr the idea of starting a new type of community re-
source for families with pets. A Helping Paw will allow anyone who is in tough financial times to get good quality pet food free of charge. Kerr explains there are many unfortunate scenarios that may land someone in a situation where they just cannot afford to pay $20 to $50 for a bag of dog or cat food. Someone who has been recently widowed may find their income cut in half, or a family with health problems may find their resources used up. These, she says, should not be reasons a family is forced to give up their pet. “They become part of the family,” says Kerr. Kerr explains how a dog can help someone who has just lost their partner continue to be social. “It is easy to get isolated, you won’t go out because you don’t want to be alone, but a dog can help that, it gives
you companionship and daily contact.” A Helping Paw will allow anyone in the Blind Bay, Sorrento, Eagle Bay and White Lake area to get some top-ofthe-line dog or cat food. No personal information
[ ] “I don’t think lack of money should keep anyone from owning a pet, they are good for your health.” Dale Kerr
will be kept, only documentation of how many people used the resource in a week. Kerr says residents would be able to utilize the resource whether they need something to hold them over until their next cheque comes through,
or if they are regular users. A Helping Paw is still in the planning stages, but Kerr says she has already lined up a dog and cat food supply with a local pet store. She first wants to know if people in the area could use such a program. “I can get it up and running no problem, it is just making sure there are people who will use it.” Kerr is asking residents in the area to simply call her at 250-675-2152 or send an email to dckerr@telus.net and voice their opinion. “I don’t care if they say ‘no, it’s a stupid idea’ or ‘yes, I know someone who could use something like this,’” says Kerr. “I just want to know if this is something the community would like to see happen.” “I don’t think lack of money should keep anyone from owning a pet,” she says. “They are good for your health.”

Technology job opportunities booming “British Columbia has a ready source of great jobs and careers in technology. Our education programs need to keep up with that demand.” John Leech, Executive Director of the Applied Science Technologists and Technicians of BC, explains that, “Every system we rely on – water, roads and transportation, telecommunications and Internet, hydro and natural gas, environment, health, forestry, and many more – utilizes engineering and applied science technology professionals working in the background. BC’s telecom and IT, animation and many other sectors produce new careers every month.” ASTTBC has more than 10,000 members currently working in thousands of careers available to graduates of two-year diploma programs available at the British Columbia Institute of Technology and other B.C. colleges
John Leech and institutes. “Our members enjoy rewarding, well-paid and often recessionproof careers in public service and the private sector alike,” Leech states. “For huge numbers of young men and women, technology is the answer. In B.C. and across Canada, technology permeates every workplace and job. We need to get capable students involved and engaged in applied sciences and head off workforce shortages by building a B.C. ‘Science and Technology Culture’.” In Salmon Arm, Okanagan College is responding to the need for office workers to
keep up with the latest in technology through its office administration courses. “People already in an office environment are finding their skills are getting outdated, so they are coming to us to upgrade those skills and they can do it right here in their own communtiy,” says Carmen Burt, office adminstration instructor. “People are aware of the need to stay current with technology.” Leech calls on government for renewed efforts to build student skills and confidence in math and science. “We especially need to interest young students in science and how things work,” Leech says. “Young students use technology every day – smart phones, iPads and computers. They play video games, even build robots.” Leech lauds the recent “Year of Science” program that encouraged students toward so-called “STEM” sub-
jects – science, technology, engineering and math. Citing the recent $6 million B.C. campaign to encourage careers in trades, Leech urges a similar effort to build awareness of engineering careers. Even the Canadian Council of Chief Executives expressed concern that only 37 per cent of 16- to 18-yearolds were interested in taking even one postsecondary course in sciences, according to a recent Angus Reid survey. Leech says the opportunities for those seeking work in the technology field are considerable given a wave of retirements of present-generation B.C. technology professionals that is already underway. “Half of our membership is now middle-aged at 45-plus, and 22 per cent are over age 55!” he says. “Every region of B.C. shows growing demand,” Leech concludes.

Three steps to prevent diabetes LIVING WELL Chances are you know someone with type 2 diabetes. That someone may even be you. Currently more than three million Canadians have type 2 diabetes. That number is expected to grow to just under four million by 2018. Genetics and lifestyle play a large role in the development of this serious health condition. Diabetes increases your risk of heart disease, kidney failure, blindness, nerve damage, and even erectile dysfunction. Making a few lifestyle changes can dra-
matically lower the chances of developing type 2 diabetes. Take these three important steps to reduce your risk. Get moving. Aim for 30 minutes of activity a day. Getting active doesn’t have to mean starting an exercise class or joining a gym. Choose activities that you enjoy or ones that you can do as a family – rake leaves, walk your kids to school, go for a bike ride after supper, or dance the night away. Maintain a healthy weight. Extra weight around the belly area is a risk factor for diabe-
tes. Even a modest amount of weight loss can reduce your risk. Speak with your health care professional about a healthy weight loss goal and ways to achieve it. Eat well. Have foods from at least three of the four food groups at each meal. Fill half your plate at supper with vegetables, a quarter with a protein (from the meat and alternatives group) and the other quarter with a starch (from the grain products group). Drink low-fat milk and choose low-fat yogurt or cheese. Keep your portions reasonable and go easy on high-fat spreads, dips, and sauces. Aim for two servings of fish each week and choose lowfat meats like extra lean
beef, turkey, and skinless chicken. Try cooking with beans, lentils, and tofu. These meat alternatives are inexpensive and have many health benefits. Lastly, cut out sugary drinks like soda. Sugary drinks provide extra calories and do not fill you up. For more great tips check out Eating Well with Canada’s Food Guide at www.hc-sc. gc.ca/fn-an/food-guidealiment/index-eng.php. It is a great resource and it’s available online or at your local health unit. Eating healthy does require some basic cooking skills. If you would like to learn how to cook healthy, budgetfriendly meals consider participating in a Food
Skills for Families program. Food Skills for Families is a free hands-on program that makes healthy eating, shopping, and cooking easy, quick, and fun. To find out if there is a program near you, check with your local friendship centre, community centre, or other organizations that offer programs for parents or seniors. For more information, visit www.foodskillsforfamilies.ca or call the Canadian Diabetes Association at 604-732-1331, extension 248. – Linda Boyd is a community nutritionist with Interior Health and Heather Morrow, is a dietetic intern.
Group offers support for cancer patients, caregivers A cancer diagnosis can instill fear and a sense of aloneness. But a support group that meets at the Canadian Cancer Society every month can help alleviate those and other concerns for women with cancer, and care-
givers. The group meets for anywhere from one to two-and-a-half hours depending on attendance, and includes a cup of tea and a snack, providing a social aspect as well. Housed in the back
room are a number of wigs and prostheses available to help women deal with the physical aspects of the disease. The group is always open, with a very simple format, and members are encouraged to
come and go as they need. The group meets on the first Monday of the month at noon, but people should call first to make sure there are no schedule changes. For more information, call the Canadian
Cancer Society’s Salmon Arm chapter at 250833-4334.

City looks at recycling options Mayor Nancy Cooper appreciates hearing the concerns of young citizens regarding recycling. At council’s Oct. 24 meeting, Cooper referred to a letter from
Lauren Ough regarding the lack of recycling bins downtown. Rob Nieuwenhuizen, the city’s director of engineering and public works, said the city has had discus-
sions with Downtown Salmon Arm regarding recycling. “We were looking at some options of how to facilitate the program,” he said. Cooper said she is
pleased to hear young people are noticing and concerned about this, and suggested that Lauren Ough be sent a response to her letter.

Renos need permits MARKET NEWS STAFF
People doing major renovations to their houses will be required to get a permit under Salmon Arm’s new building bylaw. At the Oct. 24 city council meeting, council approved the adoption of a new building bylaw. Although much of the bylaw contains general housekeeping updates and changes for consistency with BC Building Code amendments, three amendments were pointed out to council in a report from Maurice Roy, manager of permits and licensing. The one in particular that council discussed pertains to renovations. “Currently the building bylaw does not apply to the ‘non-struc-
tural repair and maintenance of structures on parcels zoned for single family residential occupancy,’” wrote Roy. “This statement is so broad that, without permit, the full renovating of houses is occurring including the removal of non-load bearing interior walls, insulation, vapour barrier, plumbing pipes, electrical wiring and heating systems. In effect the house is almost being rebuilt with no inspections whatsoever.” The amendment proposed was that the bylaw would apply to: “the renovation of a building when such work includes but is not limited to the alteration of room layouts, alteration of the insulation/vapour barrier in an exterior wall, creation of new openings in exterior walls or the
completion of previously unfinished floor areas.” It would not apply to “the non-structural repair and maintenance of buildings or structures on a parcel zoned for single family residential occupancy under the current City of Salmon Arm Zoning Bylaw.” (except as required by the amendment above.) Coun. Chad Eliason remarked: “I know the public may feel this is another level of bureaucracy... but to me this is kind of a common sense approach to allow safe housing for current or future tenants.” Coun. Ken Jamieson agreed, adding that the cost of the permit to the person gutting a house and doing a major renovation would be minimal.

Strategic plan contract awarded By Martha Wickett MARKET NEWS STAFF
Salmon Arm will be getting a strategic plan, courtesy of Urban Systems Ltd. of Kamloops, the same company that prepared the city’s downtown traffic study. In June, council decided to go ahead with a strategic plan, the purpose of which is to provide “the opportunity to create a shared community vision and implement plans that move the municipality in the desired direction,” stated a memo from Carl Bannister, the city’s chief administrative officer. “Municipalities whose operations are guided by a strategic plan can be more effective and efficient in using their scarce resources (tax dollars) to meet present and future needs.”
Although this is the city’s first comprehensive strategic plan, Bannister pointed out that many key features of a strategic plan such as “community visioning, goal-setting, longterm planning, establishment of budget priorities” have been developed and implemented at various times over the years. Following a requestfor-proposal process, council agreed on Oct. 24 to award the $75,000 contract, plus HST, to Urban Systems Ltd. of Kamloops. Bannister reported that 13 quality proposals were submitted. Coun. Debbie Cannon asked if it was the same company that did the downtown traffic study, noting that the company “got that finished a bit later” and “we weren’t really pleased... had issues
with it.” She asked if staff is confident that the company can deliver, and Bannister said yes. Coun. Denise Reimer asked if any local companies submitted a proposal, and Bannister said none from Salmon Arm. The process will include six steps, Bannister reported: reviewing existing plans; inviting community input; getting municipal leadership input; creating a first draft; developing action plans for each priority; and refining and approving the plan. The target date for approval of the strategic plan is one year from the contractaward date.

On Sunday, Oct. 28, the Salmon Arm Atom Mustangs, ages eight and nine, played in the Southern Interior Football League’s championship final. It was a full- out clash of the titans for the entire four quarters. In the end, Kelowna’s Mission Lions defeated the Mustangs 31 - 14. The Mustangs were disappointed after the defeat but perked up with encouragement, realizing they had just finished second in the league, the farthest any Salmon Arm Atoms team had made it before. The league commissioner came up and shook head coach Jerrit Lindgren’s hand after the game, saying, “The score board definitely didn’t reflect the game that your guys just played.” Lindgren says he has never had a group of young people who love the game so much. “Looking back on the entire season from start to finish will bring a smile to my face for years to come... Half of our kids had never even held a football, let alone set foot on the field. This year we had all of the right ingredients for an excellent team; the kids all had a true passion for football, we had an excellent coaching staff consisting of Troy Henning, Rob Berke, Chris Lawson and myself, an amazing team manager, Sandy Berke, and we had tremendous support from all of our players’ parents.” Lindgren says he could not be more proud of the team. “They demonstrated what it means to be a Salmon Arm Mustang by learning team work, perseverance, integrity, self discipline and, most of all, how to have fun while playing a full contact sport or, what we coaches call, ‘football fun’.” Team members were: Landon Sherwood, Shawn Morrison, Finn Rodwell, Sam Hall, Brayton Lawson, Dom Kemetzis, Ryan Berke, Teagan Mazzotta, Braidy Parkes, Sam Siarkiewicz, Nathan DavisLent, Cam Carelse, Torie Maurer, Kurtis Einfeld, Austin Hanna, Isaac Dodge, Evan Aldridge and Caleb Seyl.

Spaces open for car seat training Salmon Arm resident Selina Metcalfe announced last summer that after three years she could no longer be the go-to volunteer for car seat questions and seat checks. Plans are in place to bring an instructor to town to train a new batch of technicians who could take on this much-needed service for Salmon Arm and surrounding areas. The valuable service that Metcalfe has provided for free is no longer viable or practical for one busy mom to take on alone, and community support and assistance is now requested to fill the void for local families. A properly selected, installed, and used car or booster seat reduces death and serious injury by 70-90 per cent. In theory it’s so easy to prevent the number one cause of death of our children - car crashes - yet the vast majority of seats are inappropriate for the child, installed incorrectly, or
not used properly. Instructor Jen Shapka, with the Child Passenger Safety Association of Canada, has seen three perfect seats in the hundreds she’s checked. That rate of misuse is not acceptable, and together with other like-
“A properly selected, installed, and used car or booster seat reduces death and serious injury by 70-90 per cent.” - Jen Shapka
minded technicians, instructors, and advocates, has been working hard to change that. Shapka is coming to Salmon Arm from Vancouver Island to teach a car seat technician (CRST) training course to certify 10 new technicians. Upon successful completion Salmon Arm and area will have an invaluable local re-
source when it comes to the safety of their children in the form of qualified, certified technicians. If you know of a community group or service that would benefit from having a trained CRST on hand, please tell them how important this is to you, and ask them to send someone for training. If you are interested in being a local resource yourself, any interested person is welcome to sign up. The course is 2.5 days long and is scheduled to run Nov. 23 to 25, culminating in a free public seat check event to give the new technicians hands-on experience and local families access to quality help. The cost is $175 and includes all materials, certification fees, and personal liability insurance upon completion. Many thanks to Jacobson Ford for providing a classroom and clinic location. For more information, contact Jen Shapka at cvcarseattechs@gmail.com.

# Chase volunteer firefighters present a $150 cheque to Wally Churchill and his dog Willow during the fire department’s open house on Oct. 21. Brent Chamberlain, Chase Fire Chief, presented a cheque to Churchill on behalf of the department, for a sum of $150. “It is not much,” says Chamberlain, “but hopefully it helps a little.” The money was raised by the volunteer firefighters during a car wash fundraiser on Sept. 23, in the Safety Mart parking lot.
A cheque of the same amount was also being sent to Thelma Portier, whose house was also lost in the same fire and has since moved out of Chase. Churchill was fighting back tears at the generosity, explaining how the department has already done so much for him. “I have just had so much good things happen to me,” he said.
Take a drive with garbage Residents must now haul their garbage outside village limits, as the Chase landfill has reached its capacity. As of Nov. 30, the Chase landfill will be permanently shutting its doors to locals but, in doing so, the goal is to transition to a more eco-friendly option. The closure means that residents will now need to travel just over 18 kilometres to Pritchard where, until 2013, a transfer station will be set up. In the new year, however, a new waste management site will be available, which will
offer multiple features that are expected to make the disposal process easier for users. The new facility will allow users to separate their solid waste from recyclable and reusable items before disposing them in a fully enclosed disposal building. Chase residents can also recycle their items at the Chase bottle depot as well as the dropoff facility in the Art Holding Arena. Once the Chase landfill has shut down, the Thompson Nicola Regional District will begin the reclaiming process and will con-
tinue to monitor the site over the next 25 years as needed. The transition from landfills to Eco-Depots in the TNRD is one of the key elements of the TNRD’s Solid Waste Management Plan that was adopted back in 2008 and will help with the plan’s stated goal of reducing waste in the region by 30 per cent by 2013. For more information, residents are encouraged to contact Peter Hughes, director of environmental services, at 250-377-8673 or by emailing phughes@ tnrd.ca.
“People have donated clothes to me and other
things, they are just so kind.”

Chase Volunteer Fire Department opened its doors to the community earlier this month and gave back once again to the community – and their help was appreciated. A number of Chase volunteer firefighters were on hand Oct. 21 to meet and greet with visitors, provide tours of the firehouse and take some for a spin in a fire truck. Wally Churchill, one of the Chase residents who lost his house in the Whispering Pines fire earlier this year, was also in attendance with Willow his dog who had managed to escape the fire on her own. The locally known folk and country singer wanted to show his support to those who had worked so hard to save his home. Churchill says he has been trying to get his life back together in the months since the fire. While he has had to put his music on hold, he has bought a new house and is getting some normality back in his life once again.

Cod comes to Chase The Chase community hall will be rocking as musical veterans hit the stage with a unique sound that intertwines the music of the Maritimes with that of the Okanagan. Cod Gone Wild will be in Chase on Nov. 10, as part of their West Coast tour promoting their latest album ‘The Traveler.’ The band is made up by a diverse
group of musicians. A background in folk, rock, jazz and funk have influenced their sound which they like to describe as modern Celtic with driving rhythms and tight vocal harmonies. The show begins at 7:30 at the Chase community Hall. Tickets can be bought at G-Force Board Shop for $20 or at the door.

Heat hockey team hot in contest versus Storm Friday, Oct. 26th saw arch rivals of the Chase Heat, the Kamloops Storm, come to town. After two thrilling overtime periods the game ended in a 3-3 tie. The Storm struck first in the first period with the Heat scoring the only goal of the second, Kurtis Johnson assisted by Shelby Kostyshen and Dominick Hodges. In the third, the teams each scored twice: for

The Grizzlies from Revelstoke will be visiting the Art Holding Arena tonight followed by the Penticton Lakers on Saturday night. The Heat, in the last
few weeks, have added Taylor Jordan, a top-six forward from the Summerland Steam, lanky defenceman Karsten Banack, a Red Deer, Alta. kid picked up from the Princeton Posse, and d-man Robert Dawson, a Kelowna youngster picked up from the Grandforks Border Bruins.

Pumpkin Experience from Pete Murray’s Corn Farm to the museum. Ethan “Cowboy” Kalugin won a friendly bet as he packed a 30-plus pound pumpkin the four kilometres on his own. The boys showed off some artistic flair in carving excellent jack o’ lanterns.

Bike lane problematic By Martha Wickett MARKET NEWS STAFF
A request for bike lanes on Old Auto Road will have road blocks to overcome. Resident Art Borkent wrote to city council recently, requesting bike lanes on the steep, twisty roadway, noting that it is an important bike route and one that is particularly challenging because of the curves. At the Oct. 24 meeting of council, in response to his letter, city staff reported that such lanes would be difficult there.
“I don’t know if we’d consider it,” said Rob Nieuwenhuizen, the city’s director of engineering and public works. “It’s a very narrow road to consider. It would be difficult to have a true bike lane.” He said one factor to consider with bike lanes is parking; they affect where residents are permitted to park. Coun. Ken Jamieson suggested erecting a “share the road” sign to alert motorists. Nieuwenhuizen said that would be a possibility, but Coun. Chad Eliason said he finds that
signs don’t work. “Signs are expensive. People see signs all the time, and don’t always stop at stop signs,” Eliason remarked, suggesting, instead, a painting program for roads. “Anything’s possible,” Nieuwenhuizen said. “Unfortunately there are restrictions on where we can place the bike lanes. It depends on width of road.” Eliason said even a white line painted on the right side of the road would give cyclists a sense of security and a boundary.
Logging planned for Mt. Ida By Martha Wickett MARKET NEWS STAFF
Timber harvesting is planned for Mount Ida. Stuart Parker of Stuart Parker Forest Con-
sulting wrote to city council, informing them that the Adams Lake Indian Band plans to harvest timber killed by the mountain pine beetle.
Seven cut blocks totaling 70 hectares, outside of city limits, will be harvested. “I am informing you of these plans as they may have some bearing
on your plans for managing wildfires in the community/crown land interface,” Parker wrote.

City attempts to find funding to refurbish recreation centre By Lachlan Labere MARKET NEWS STAFF
The city will be applying for grant money to help offset the cost of a general overhaul needed at the SASCU Recreation Centre. Earlier this month, council authorized the submission of a grant application for $250,000 from the federal government’s Community Infrastructure Improvement Fund. According to a memo from city engineering and public works director Rob Niewenhuizen, the funds would cover 50 per cent of the estimated cost for the following upgrades, replacements and repairs: Boilers: $179,000 – The pool currently uses two boilers that are inefficient and beyond their life expectancy. Heat exchangers: $32,000 – Transfer heat from boilers to pool, originals installed with pool, currently inefficient, leaking and at risk of failure; Wading pool filters: $13,000 – Current filters 17 years old and undersized; Main pool filters: $35,000 – original system, many components in need of replacement;
UV disinfectant system: $75,000 – facility currently uses chlorine gas as primary disinfectant. UV considered safer primary method; Pool deck drainage system: $40,000 – current system beginning to fail – water seeping below deck surface, into concrete substrate; Alarm system: $18,000 – current system obsolete, replacement parts unavailable; Doors and windows: $35,00 – front doors obsolete, several interior doors rusting, meeting room windows can’t be opened; Lockers: $54,000 – Lockers more than 26 years old, need replacement. In total, the work is expected to cost $500,000. The remaining portion would come from the city’s Community Centre Major Maintenance Reserve of $75,000 and the Climate Action reserve of $175,000. “Some big ticket items, like the boilers, there’s so much new technology that we can definitely get savings in operating costs as well as upgrade our equipment,” Dale Berger, the facility’s manager, ex-
plained. “You’re taking a 1986 boiler and replacing it with a new one that’s probably a 10th of the size and 20 per cent more efficient.” Asked how pressing some of the needed items are, Berger noted last year the main pump started making noise. Because the part couldn’t simply be taken out of commission for repair, a new one was ordered. It took eight weeks to arrive. “If that pump had failed, that’s how long you’d be looking at shutting the pool down...,” said Berger. “We could possibly have a boiler failure which might affect us in our really cold parts of the winter. There’s an alarm system we have no access to parts to. If that were to fail, we’d have to have 24-hour coverage for fire and safety… it’s so much about updating equipment to today’s standards.” Berger adds use of the centre is at capacity. “It’s being used so much now compared with even six or seven years ago,” he says. If the application is successful, the work would have be completed by March 31, 2014.

The family of Hazel Knutson wishes to thank family and friends for all the thoughts of condolence after her passing on October 17th, at Shuswap Lake General Hospital, complications of her blood disorder. The food, flowers, cards and calls were all such an expression of love… A very special thanks to Michelle, Charlotte and Deb for their special time with Mom, and Suzanne, Sandy and Emelia for always keeping in touch. A friend of Mom’s said “Hazel was the kindest, calmest, most decent friend she ever had.” A nephew states “Aunt Hazel was the epitomy of peace, serenity and sincerity and will always be remembered.” This was our mother, strong to the end, always questioning, wanting answers I couldn’t give her, her blindness being her biggest obstacle. Faithfully listened to The Waltons, church services on Sunday, special CDs of music and I read to her every day. Her children/grandchildren and their spouses meant everything to her, always trying to keep up with their lives. Phone calls, visits and popping in to say hello. Rest in peace dear mother, ‘til we meet again. ~ Gaille & Ross Bisson, Salmon Arm; Jerry & Janice of Gimli; Vern & Libby of Helena; Steve & Marie of Eston, Sk., Sherry & Nelson of Calgary.

Throughout history, trade has proven to be a key in nation building. In 1600, the Europeans visited China which was at the time, an advanced culture. The Europeans wanted to trade with China but were denied. Due to this denial, Europeans traded with the rest of the world and the results were dramatic. In 1600, the life expectancy was 26.5 years in Europe and China. By 1800, the life expectancy doubled in Europe but remained relatively the same in China. During that time, Europeans’ physical stature increased by 5.5 inches above their Chinese counterparts. All this was attributed to trade, new foods, medicines and prosperity, which improved the standard of living for most European countries. History revealed the country that embraced this most, England, became the world’s superpower of the day. Today is no different.
alone have soared: in 2011, Canada shipped 6.8 million cubic metres of lumber to China, a drastic increase from 2006, when Canada shipped only 331,000 cubic metres. The lines have now been drawn in Parliament. Over their 13 years in government, the Liberals completed only three trade deals. In less than six years, our government concluded free trade agreements with nine countries. Sadly, the NDP has consistently opposed our government’s efforts to open up new markets for Canadian exporters. Trade agreements need to protect the best interests of Canadian values, the environment and the economy. You can be assured that this is your government’s top priority in our protrade agenda.

has been a 70 per cent increase in jobs, resulting in 2,220 full-time jobs in Prince Rupert, over $420 million contributed to B.C.’s gross domestic product and over $880 million in total economic output across the B.C. economy. A great investment of tax dollars, don’t you think? The port is also expanding, with a $90 million investment (including $15 million from the federal government) in the Rail, Road and Utility Corridor on Ridley Island, in order to accommodate coal from northeast B.C. and the U.S. Midwest and liquid natural gas going to Asia. The port is also investing in a B.C. wood pellet terminal that will ship to Asian and Europe, plus greater volumes of containers between Asia and North America (an increase of 18 per cent over last year). British Columbia’s annual lumber shipments to China

Trade is a key to a vibrant economy and the standard of living. Your government has embraced an aggressive trade agenda that will result in growth, jobs, and prosperity for all Canadians. Our Minister of Trade, the Honourable Ed Fast, has regularly met and negotiated trade opportunities with representatives from many countries. Our government recognizes that if you are going to be a trading nation you need the infrastructure to support related initiatives. Our Asia-Pacific Gateway and Corridor Initiative invested money into transportation, ports, and infrastructure to facilitate greater ease in the transfer of goods between Asia and North America. A good example is the Port of Prince Rupert. Our government, along with the Government of British Columbia, invested $60 million into this port, which has proven to be a great investment. The money was used to help purchase land for the state-of-the-art Fairview Container Terminal, which has grown every year since opening. The port has increased from five million tons shipped through the port in 2006, to 20 million tons today. Since 2009, there
