Pair arrested for Tyler Myers murder By Martha Wickett MARKET NEWS STAFF
Four years to the month he was killed, police have charged two people in the murder of 22-year-old Tyler Myers of Salmon Arm. Myers died of a gunshot wound on the evening of Nov. 21, 2008, his body discovered by a passerby about 7:30 p.m. on a trail on the grounds of Bastion Elementary School.
On Monday of this week, police arrested a 20-yearold man and a 21-year-old woman, both who were under 18 years at the time of the murder so can’t be named under the Youth Criminal Justice Act. Both are residents of Salmon Arm and both have been charged with first-degree murder. The pair appeared briefly in Salmon Arm Court on Tuesday where the charges

Police claim murder pre-planned Continued from front of both the individuals. The three individuals – Mr. Myers and the two charged, knew each other. I won’t go into the specifics of that relationship; we’ll let that come out in court. Certainly the families also knew each other and I think that the Myers family was surprised at who has been charged...” Shinkaruk emphasized that the investigation remains active and further charges could be laid. “Certainly we find often that once charges are laid, some people at that point may feel safer or may have information they didn’t want to really bring forward for a variety of reasons.” Shinkaruk said he would encourage anyone who has any information regarding the crime to contact police. The courtroom was almost filled to capacity with many young people, some of whom were expressing shock at the identities of the accused. Many said they felt compelled to come to court to try and look the accused killers in the eye. Shinkaruk was asked at the news conference if the murder could have been drug-related. He replied: “Tyler Myers, a 22-year-old Salmon Arm youth, did not deserve in any way to be murdered in 2008
or any time. The investigation, the details of what motive or other details are best coming out in court, respecting the charter rights, but certainly, we’ll say the three individuals did know each other. We don’t believe this was a random murder. By virtue of the first-degree murder charge we believe it was a planned and deliberate murder of Tyler Myers.” He said the investigation went through several stages. He credited the Salmon Arm RCMP Detachment for its thorough preservation of evidence, initial investigations, interviews and follow-up interviews.

The RCMP Southeast District Major Crimes Unit then joined the investigation, which Shinkaruk also credited for its work in moving the investigation forward. This year, the Unsolved Homicides Unit took on the investigation from the Southeast District and has been working on it full time. “Certainly when Unsolved comes on, it gives the opportunity

# RCMP Insp. Gary Shinkaruk, from the Major Crimes Section, speaks to the media outside the Salmon Arm detachment about the charges laid against two suspects, a male and female, who have been arrested for the 2008 murder of Salmon Arm resident Tyler Myers. to focus full time on that... It allowed a team of dedicated investigators to concentrate on this,” he said, noting that the earlier investigations paved the way for the arrests. The murder took place when there was a function going on at the elementary school, Shinkaruk said, noting that Salmon Arm is a small, safe community – and this crime was a shock. “It was after school hours but there were adults that were there... It reinforces that when people do murder in public places, in openair places, it really does put people at risk. This happened in a trail on a school ground. People heard the shots when they were at a school function.”

Sturgis North heads back to the Shuswap By Martha Wickett MARKET NEWS STAFF
Sturgis North is returning to the Shuswap in 2013. A joint news release from Joan Hansen, president of Sturgis North, and Chief Judy Wilson, chief of the Neskonlith Indian Band, was issued Wednesday, Nov. 7, announcing that Sturgis North and the Neskonlith band will be hosting the 2013 Sturgis North Annual All Make Motorcycle Jamboree and Music Festival. In a follow-up phone interview, Hansen said the event will not be in Salmon Arm but is proposed for Neskonlith land closer to Chase – and will be held in August, not July. “Our feedback from our patrons was they really wanted to have water. We lost a lot of people to the different lakes,” she said. “We want to have more of a waterfront location. We want people to have fun and not have to leave.” In July 2011 the motorcycle rally and music festival was held on two sites – the Salmon Arm Fairgrounds and Neskonlith land in Gleneden. This summer, it moved to the Spallumcheen MotoPlex Speedway. Hansen said a portion of the event will remain in Spallumcheen. “It was a tough decision, the motoplex is a really great venue. There are still going to be some events at the motoplex,” she said, noting Sturgis is on good terms with the owner. When the event was held in Salmon Arm in 2011, it left a bad taste in the mouths of some businesses. Several were not paid for the services
Give the
they provided. “We’re going to be getting something together with the people, once we have the property secured... We will sit down with the creditors,” Hansen said, adding that Sturgis North would like to set up an account to pay off debts owed. Hansen said Sturgis set up a restructuring company that advised them to pay creditors reduced amounts. She said she doesn’t agree with reductions, even though it will take longer to pay people what they’re owed. “Even if it takes five years, our plan is to pay off all legitimate debt. There was a lot of illegitimate debt,” she added, contending that Sturgis was over-charged for many services. “The costs were $2.6 million,” she said of 2011. “This year it was only $700,000. That’s a lot of over-billing. With that in mind, I think we’ll do fine.” She said the event hasn’t made money yet, but similar events don’t for the first four years. She pointed to the Merritt music festival and the Live Nation festival in Squamish. “It’ll take a couple of years; it’s not going to happen overnight. We’re not going to aim for a huge festival – we’re going to shorten the days and bring the prices down.” Asked about former Sturgis president Ray Sasseville, Hansen said he’s no longer involved. “He’s pursuing his music and writing a book,” she said, explaining that he is working on a recording label for up-and-coming artists. Wilson was unavailable for comment.

Kyllo joins the race for riding By Lachlan Labere MARKET NEWS STAFF
Having enjoyed a taste of civic politics, Greg Kyllo is ready for the next level as BC Liberal candidate for the Shuswap riding. Kyllo, a first-term councillor with the District of Sicamous, decided last Friday to run for nomination to lead the Shuswap riding of the BC Liberal party – a position held by retiring MLA George Abbott since 1996 – into the May 2013 provincial election. Others seeking nomination include former Salmon Arm Mayor Marty Bootsma, former Spallumcheen Mayor Will Hansma and Jordan Ross of Salmon Arm. Along with being a municipal councillor, Kyllo is the co-owner and manager of TA Structures in Sicamous. Both Kyllo and the company feature prominently in the provincial government’s current BC Jobs Plan campaign. But Kyllo has a longer, deeper connection to the BC Liberals (including his friendship with Abbott), which has, in part, prompted him to try his hand at provincial politics.
“The Liberals are certainly free enterprise – It’s all about small business, and the rights of the individual,” says Kyllo, explaining what it is about the BC Liberal party that appeals to him. “Obviously it’s all about job growth, and I lived through the NDP-era through the late ’80s, early ’90s. It was just a disaster for our business. “I think the Liberals have done a fantastic job and I want to see that they retain power. The Conservatives I certainly don’t see as a viable option….” Kyllo says he actually began thinking about running to represent the Shuswap earlier this summer, after he and his wife Georgina were approached by a number of individuals who thought he’d be a good candidate. “We thought pretty long and hard about it and we initially made a decision about five weeks ago that we were not going to run,” says Kyllo. Things changed, however, when Greg and Georgina attended the recent BC Liberal convention in Whistler. There, the Kyllos – unbeknownst to them – were chosen to receive the BC Liberal Party’s May Brown Award, an

But he says he sees the momentum of public opinion swinging back in favour of a Liberal government, something he believes to be essential to the province’s economy. Kyllo says that as much as he enjoys serving as a councillor, he would be able to do

OPINION It’s a question of national honour On Sunday many of us will gather around cenotaphs and in city squares for solemn ceremonies paying tribute to Canada’s service men and women. We’ll hear words like sacrifice and honour, some of them uttered by politicians. But for some veterans they’ll ring hollow. In 2006, Parliament passed the New Veterans Charter that changed the way injured soldiers are compensated. Instead of a lifetime pension, indexed to inflation, veterans injured after that year, or who had their injury diagnosed since then, would get a lump sum settlement. But some veterans, say Canadian soldiers injured in Afghanistan, and those suffering the lingering mental and emotional effects of their tour, are getting substantially less support than they would have received with the former indexed pension. A study by Queen’s University last year concluded most disabled soldiers will receive only two-thirds the compensation under the New Veterans Charter than they would have received from the old Pension Act. Recently Canada’s auditor-general criticized the Canadian Forces and Veterans Affairs for their shoddy treatment of injured veterans, saying the system to get them help is “complex, lengthy and challenging to navigate.” Even in death, the indignities continue. A program that is supposed to contribute just over $3,600 to the funeral costs for destitute ex-soldiers has rejected more than two-thirds of funding requests since 2006. Even when approved, that money is still less than some social services departments will pay towards the burial of the homeless. It’s one thing for Canada’s politicians to honour our veterans. It’s another to treat them with honour. - Burnaby NewsLeader

The uncertain future of sockeye On October 31, 2012, BC Supreme Court Justice Bruce Cohen’s long awaited, 1,191 page, $26 million report, The Uncertain Future of Fraser River Sockeye, was released after almost a year-and-a-half of public hearings, the collection of some 2,000 exhibits, the review of more than 500,000 documents and two time extensions. While the report was very clear in stating that there was no single cause or “smoking gun” to explain the poor (2009) Fraser River sockeye salmon run, it did cover a wide range of issues including the negative impacts of warming oceans, climate change and contamination and development along the river, as well as the non-implementation of the Department of Fisheries and Ocean’s wild salmon policy. The report also states that “much remains unknown and more scientific research is needed.” At a press conference following the release of the report, Justice Cohen said that much more scientific research is needed and called on the government “to start
THE GREAT OUTDOORS James Murray that work now, and not put it off because of budget concerns.” Of the 75 recommendations (to the federal government) contained within the report, 11 were focused primarily on the province’s salmon-farming industry, addressing issues like government management, the locations of open net-pen farms and the need for more research. The report says that Fraser River sockeye face a “likelihood of harm” from disease and pathogens on farms, especially in the Discovery Islands, located northeast of Campbell River, between Vancouver Island and the province’s mainland. “Disease can cause significant population declines,
and, in some situations – for example, if a disease were to wipe out a vulnerable stock of Fraser River sockeye – such effects could be irreversible,” wrote Cohen. “I therefore conclude that the potential harm posed by salmon farms to Fraser River sockeye salmon is serious or irreversible.” The report states that “the federal government should prohibit net-pen farms in the Discovery Islands... unless the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans is satisfied those farms pose at most a minimal risk to migrating sockeye.” Implicit in the report is the implication that the DFO is caught in a conflict of interest. On one hand it has a duty to protect wild salmon stocks while, on the other hand, is expected to promote farmed salmon. The report recommends that DFO be released from its conflicted mandate and that the protection of wild salmon stocks and the promotion of aquaculture be moved to a different departments. It also recommends the full funding and immediate
implementation of the government’s 2005 Wild Salmon Policy. Predictably, the BC Salmon Farmers Association put their own spin on the report. In a statement made by B.C. Salmon Farmers Association board member Stewart Hawthorn, the association said: “We’re very happy with Justice Cohen’s praise of the quality and quantity of our data,” adding that, “he didn’t ask us to stop farming, just to do more research, which we’re happy to do.” A number of other recommendations deal with the need for increased research and monitoring of fish and habitat. The Cohen report is a compelling document that deals with one of the most complex environmental problems B.C. (and Ottawa, due to the fact that salmon stocks fall under federal jurisdiction) have ever faced. If the federal government truly wants to save B.C.’s wild sockeye salmon stocks, it is imperative they move quickly to implement the recommendations made by Justice Cohen in his report.

MAIL BAG Trade isn’t always a good thing You can always tell when the Conservatives have something that appeals to their base — take the long gun registry. Members of the government constantly inform us of what they have done to the registry. The repeal warranted a separate debate, with no limitations on time. By this standard, they are very, very embarrassed about the Chinese-Canadian free trade agreement. No debate. No boasting. No informa-
tion. Rather like the agreement itself. Why do I have to listen to Rick Mercer to find out that there is a 15-year notification required for cancellation of the agreement? NAFTA only needs six months. Why are the Chinese demanding that everything be secret? If this was so good for everyone, as Colin Mayes and his sidekick from the People’s Republic of China imply, wouldn’t they be pa-
rading it around like they did with the gun registry? What do they have to hide? Now Mayes informs us that we should be happy because Prince Rupert Port is investing in a wood pellet terminal. Are pellets the best use of our forest lands? Are our coal mines only profitable if we have temporary Chinese miners working there? Trade can be good, but it can also be bad. Otherwise, Mr.
Mayes would be crowing about the good results of the Opium wars, which forced China to accept opium in exchange for their exports, rather than the silver bullion they originally demanded. If the only requirement of prosperity was exports, the copperbelt countries of Zambia and the DRC would be superpowers. They can’t even afford roads. Canadian oil can be refined and used here, and thus maintain and
Writer would prefer to trade government In his opinion piece on Nov. 23, Colin Mayes trots out all the usual buzzwords and hyperbole surrounding the issue of trade, including “vibrant economy” and “prosperity” and other typical groupspeak propaganda. Mayes then cites various statistics regarding the increasing volume of trade and concludes by stating that the Harper government is concerned with protecting the environment through all of this. Of course, it is the
Harper government which recently took all the teeth out of environmental oversight and legislation. And it is the Harper government, along with Mr. Mayes, who conveniently ignore the fact that, despite the current unprecedented level of global trade and trade agreements, the standard of living is in fact in decline in Canada, unemployment remains persistently high (while we import workers from China for mines in British Columbia), the Canadian economy
is lurching and creaking as though it is about to fall down completely, Canadians have record levels of personal debt, and the taxpaying Canadian middle class is being wiped out as jobs are exported to countries with much lower wages and labour standards. Who actually benefits from all of this? I see no reduction in the fat compensation packages for corporate CEOs, or for our politicians for that matter. There is nothing trickling down to the aver-

age Canadian, which of course is nothing new as trickle down economic theory is nothing but a fabrication used by the wealthy to keep the herd from stampeding. No, the next trade agreement I wish to see in Canada is one where we trade our current “government” for one which actually cares about the average Canadian, rather than continuing to line the pockets of the one-percenters. Rick Shea
rebuild our infrastructure, pay our pensions, and provide healthcare, or it can be exported raw to China where it will build Chinese infrastructure. It can’t do both. Must we wait until our highways look like something out of Mad Max... or Zambia?

War hero to be featured on TV By Cavelle Layes MARKET NEWS STAFF
He sits in the comfort of his living room chair, next to a window with a serene view of Shuswap Lake. His wife, Wendy, sits by his side. Dean’s life here is calm and relaxed, the only indication of his involvement with war is the name of one of the two rescue dogs that lie at his feet. Dixie, is a subtle nod to his days spent soaring through the skies as a navigator for Royal Air Force bomber command, a time when he was known as Dixie Dean. It is his story that earned him an invitation from by War Torn Productions to appear on the History Channel series, War Stories. The Blind Bay veteran will be appearing in two episodes, which air this weekend – Bomber Command – Hitting Back and the second called Bomb Command – Heading Home. “I was touched when they came to me,” says Dean. “I thought people had forgotten about all that stuff. I didn’t think anyone was still interested in what happened back then.” Dean was only 16-years-old when the Second World War broke out in 1939. Not allowed to enlist until his 18th birthday, Dean jumped at the chance to join the Air Training Corps. He was later called
up to RAF 51 Squadron, at which time there was a major shortage of navigator-bombardiers. “I was nervous,” he says, “but I had a strong religious background, I had faith that I would make it through.” Dean says that many of his friends were not as lucky as him. “We used to say that once you made it through six ops you would finish your tour,” he explains, “Most did not make it.” Dean completed 28 operations during his first tour. His final operation in that tour had him heading to Peenemunde, located in North Germany. “Berlin was big, we wouldn’t dare touch it, but when they began bombing London, well, we had to show them that they could not do this.” The operation was considered successful. About 600 RAF, Canadian and Australian aircraft left on Aug. 17, 1943. Their goal was to destroy the factories that were producing V1 doodlebugs, V2 Rockets and unmanned bombs. “It was quite a sight you know,” says the veteran. “We were flying to Berlin to destroy the factories making flying bombs as well as their launch sites, and here they were flying past us on their way to London.” On the way there, Dean describes how some pilots attempted
his squadron. Dean often filled in for other navigators, who had been grounded for some reason. These were unsettling missions at times, he adds. Sometimes he went on operations with welltrained veterans, but in other cases he flew with “first timers.” See Keeping on page 9

# Ken “Dixie” Dean was home on leave in
Eastleigh, England, in 1943, after his first tour of duty with the Royal Air Force, when he read in the local newspaper that he had been awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross. to shoot the bombs. “This, I guess, was not a very smart thing to do because it would have been so easy to cause them to explode and possibly take out the pilot as well.” If the pilots were able to knock the flying bombs off course it would cause them to fall from the sky and explode on the ground below. Either way, the flying bombs were faster than the planes, and in most cases the pilots were not able to target the bombs successfully. This, he adds, was one of his biggest and most nerve-racking ops he flew. Winston Churchill had delivered his orders, Dean explains.
“He said that if we did not complete the mission that night, we would be sent out the next, and the next and the next until we were successful.” About 600 planes in total were sent out, of which 41 did not return. “Each plane had at least a six-man crew,” says Dean. “When one plane went down, we lost six men.” During the Second World War, 55,000 airmen lost their lives, he points out. After Dean finished his tour, he took a short break, filling in the time by teaching navigation and bombing techniques. He was soon asked to return to the skies, this time as the head of

Keeping veterans’ stories alive Continued from pg 8 “On the plus side, it seemed to give the new guys a sense of confidence to be flying with someone who had been there, done that. “They thought we would keep them out
of hot water,” he says. “However, it didn’t matter how much experience you had, if you got hit, there wasn’t much you could do.” Dean completed some 14 to 18 more operations before the war came to an end and he was able to re-
turn home. Towards the end of the war, he was invited to Buckingham Palace, where King George V1 presented him with his Distinguished Flying Cross. “A friend and I went to see The King’s Speech not too long
ago,” laughs Wendy. “I told her that Ken met him and she was kind of shocked.” Wendy maintains the importance of recording the war stories. “Once we lose our veterans, all this history will be gone with them.”

Working towards a sustainable recreation plan SHUSWAP PASSION Jim Cooperman The Shuswap Lake Integrated Planning Process (SLIPP) was initiated in 2007 and after three years a strategic plan was developed with three basic goals that address the need for protecting water quality, and ensuring that both development and recreational experiences are sustainable. Since the plan was created, SLIPP has focused on monitoring water quality, improving compliance and enforcement and restoration of foreshore habitat. This year, efforts have begun to develop a recreation management plan for Shuswap, Little Shuswap, Mara and Adams lakes. It is an ambitious project, with goals that include providing a vision for how recreational resources will be managed and determining objectives for infrastructure needs, zoning, use thresholds and monitoring. Key to the project is the use of what is called a “Recreation
Optimization Management Model,� which provides a guide to understanding the Shuswap’s current recreational management system. The model identifies the supporting environmental, economic and cultural conditions; the existing activities such as boating, camping, and fishing and the recreationists, including both permanent and seasonal residents, and visitors. The first step for developing a recreation plan for the Shuswap has been the preparation of a background report or “situation analysis.� This report, completed in spring 2012, is now available on the SLIPP website: www.slippbc. ca. There exists an overly complex management structure, with four levels of governance: local, provincial, federal and First Nations. At the local level, there are three regional districts and three municipalities. Because of many, intersecting levels of government, coordination of recreational services is restricted, which results in a barrier to sustainable management. There has been a significant growth in tourism revenue in the Thompson-Okanagan region, which includes the Shuswap, as the sta-

tistics show a 55 per cent increase in hotel revenue over the last 10 years. However, the data from the Salmon Arm Visitor Centre shows little change over the last five years, with most of the visitors being locals, followed by the next largest group from B.C., then Alberta, followed by Europe. Of all the activities that take place on the lakes, power-boating is both the most popular and the most contentious. However, statistics show a decline in boating, with fewer camping permits sold to those arriving in boats in the Shuswap Lake Marine Park. The statistics also show a decline in the visual tally of houseboats visiting park sites from a peak of 13,565 in 2005, and a decline in the number of commercial houseboats registered with BC Parks from 225 in 2006 to 178 in 2011.
Although there has been one informal boat count by Shuswap Lake Watch in 2010 that showed a high number of boats during the July long weekend, there is a lack of any hard data on the quantity of boats on the lake. While the report does identify the 11 commercial marinas and notes there are 40 smaller, private marinas, it does not describe how the 1,704 existing moorage spots are likely filled to capacity. Nor does the report provide any data about the huge number of buoys that were placed in the lake prior to the new bylaw coming into force this October. There is scant data on non-motorized water recreation, although there is anecdotal information about an increase in canoeing, kayaking and paddle boarding. Statistics do show that both provincial park camping and fishing
numbers have remained fairly consistent, although there has been a sharp decline in private campgrounds. The report provides no shortages of issues that need to be addressed, including conflicts from overcrowding, noise pollution, limited lake access, limited infrastructure, insufficient enforcement, a lack of research and the impacts of highspeed boats on shorelines and habitat. In addition, concerns continue to increase regarding houseboat greywater effluent, agricultural runoff and the impacts on natural ecological values. Missing from the report are the mounting concerns about the impact of motorized recreational vehicles on riparian areas adjacent to the lake. This past summer, two students collected survey information from both residents and visi-
tors to address the gaps and provide more data for the planning process. This survey will be available online (at slippbc.ca) for local residents to participate in until the end of November. If you care about the future of the lakes
and recreational experiences, please take the survey and provide input on the draft plan. There will be more opportunities to provide input next spring, as completion of the plan is expected in the fall of 2013.

celebrate their cross-Canada bike tour at a Terry Fox memorial in St. John’s, Nfld. amount of banging, yelling or honking would move him,” says Webster. “We finally got to our bikes and just bolted.” The reception the two received on the rest of the tour was far more heartening. “All the way across the country we experienced so much kindness, welcome and warmth,” Webster says. “It definitely restored our faith in humanity. It’s amazing the generosity we experienced, it was so overwhelming.” Shaver describes the experience as absolutely mind-blowing and attributes it to the emails announcing their next destination, asking if anyone knew anybody who would put them up, give them a place to set up their tent, or feed them, in exchange for a concert. “People would pass on messages to their friends,” he says. “We
met people who were friends of friends, or friends of friends of friends.” Shaver says he was overwhelmed by the willingness of people to become part of their experience. “I think the notion of a bike is instantly disarming and we were travelling as a malefemale duo,” he says of people’s willingness to accept them and their “biker” gear. “And it’s kind of hard to look tough and menacing when you’re wearing tights.” The couple played music, tidied up after themselves as much as possible at each place they stayed and left a CD with a thank you note. The couple’s on-road experience was also stellar. “The big transport trucks were the most courteous by far; we have nothing but good
things to say about them,” says Webster, noting the weather cooperated for most of the journey. As of last Friday a Million Dollars in Pennies had played 24 shows, with three more on the slate. The couple will board a train in Halifax on Friday for a more relaxed journey home. Accepted to VIA Rail’s onboard entertainment program in lieu of tickets, Webster and Shaver will play two 45-minute sets daily all the way back to Vancouver. They arrive in the Shuswap Saturday, Nov. 17 and, as promised, perform in concert that night at Sunnybrae Hall. Vancouver singer and guitarist Missy Donaldson will open for a Million Dollars in Pennies at 8. Tickets at $15 are available at Synergy and Acorn Music.

While most of their 8,000-kilometre bike tour across Canada was about warmth, welcome and music, Mike Shaver and Steph Webster felt humbled to be following the route of Terry Fox. The couple, who perform as a Million Dollars in Pennies, dipped their bike tires in the Pacific Ocean near a memorial to the courageous young cancer victim in July. They did the same when they arrived at the Atlantic after a four-month concert tour fuelled entirely by pedal power. Speaking from Cow Bay, N.S. last Friday, the couple described their delight in the tour. “It’s the best thing I’ve done in my life,” raved Webster. Any preconceived fears about the long journey were laid to rest, added an equally enthusiastic Shaver. “The only downside is I found it to be addictive,” he says. “If that looked daunting and wasn’t, what more could be possible?” Webster says once they cleared Rogers Pass, she thought she could do anything. That, in part, could be a result of their close encounter with a bear that had them penned in an outhouse for 20 minutes. “He was just so curious, he came up around the outhouses and no

Author tells tales of her solitary life Chris Czajkowski has lived in the far reaches of the Chilcotin for almost 30 years, where she has hand-built all of her cabins, often with no help at all. Resourceful and fiercely independent, Czajkowski has become one of B.C.’s favourite wilderness dwellers. She will share her experiences and introduce her new book, Ginty’s Ghost: A Wilderness Dweller’s Dream, at SAGA Public Art Gallery at 7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 9. In 2006, Czajkowski bought a derelict homestead at Ginty Creek. Although there is rough road access into this property, it is still quite remote. Her new book is Czajkowski’s account of
settling into this homesite, which previously belonged to Ginty Paul, an eccentric recluse with whom Czajkowski became quite intrigued. Accounts of Ginty vary greatly. Some locals remember her as a cheerful woman, always laughing, while others feared her volatile temper. This fascinating character comes alive as Czajkowski intersperses her own experiences with excerpts from Ginty’s letters and documents, as well as accounts of this peculiar woman from friends and neighbors. Ginty’s Ghost is a story about two unconventional women who have lived remarkable lives, immersed in B.C.’s spectacular wilderness.

Dealing with stigma of dementia Salmon Arm families living with the impact of dementia are also coping with stigma, according to a new study. Nearly three-quarters of people with dementia, and 64 per cent of family caregivers, believe there are negative associations for those diagnosed with dementia, says Alzheimer’s Disease International. Another alarming sta-

tistic revealed in the report: 40 per cent of people with dementia say they have been treated differently. The report puts a spotlight on stigma as a real issue that impacts individuals and families who are living with Alzheimer’s disease,” says Michelle Hallgren, the local support and education coordinator for Salmon Arm and the
North Central Okanagan for the non-profit Alzheimer Society of B.C. A free local support and information group serves as a forum for sharing practical tips and strategies for coping with the disease. For more information contact Hallgren toll-free at 1-800-634-3399 or email mhallgren@alzheimerbc.org.
According to the Canadian Diabetes Association, more than three million children and adults in Canada alone have diabetes. That’s more than 10 per cent of the population. People with diabetes are at increased risk for eye complications, and most people with diabetes will get some form of retinopathy, a disorder or deterioration of the retina. People with diabetes also have a higher risk of blindness than people without diabetes. The earlier these problems are diagnosed, the more successful the treatments can be. To aid in this fight, optometrists from Shuswap Optometric Centre, Dr. Robert Allaway, Dr. Alan Ewanyshyn, Dr. Tracy Thompson, and Dr. Lauren Koch are joining with optometrists across the country to raise awareness of this problem and its treatability. Throughout November, Shuswap Optometric Centre will be providing a variety of educational and awareness building efforts for patients in the hope of diagnosing this disorder before it affects their sight. “You will see this topic featured on our website at www.shuswapoptometric.ca as well as our Facebook page as we try to reach as many of our community members as possible,” says Dr. Allaway of Shuswap Optometric Centre, with offices in Salmon Arm and Chase. “This is a very preventable and treatable disorder and education is our best weapon.” Also during the month of November, Shuswap Optometric Centre will be donating $5 for every diabetic eye exam they perform and another $1 to the Canadian Diabetes Association for each Facebook “like” they receive on their fan page.

Movember prep
It’s a wrap for Colts The Salmon Arm Pee Wee Colts season came to a close Sunday on the losing end of 13-6 score against third-place West Kelowna. Each Colt gave it their all, but the fuel tank ran out in the second half. With a short bench, many Colts had to play both offence and defence the entire game. This season was a developing year for the team, who always played a strong first half. The 2012 Peewee Colts, coaches Mark Lindgren, Rob Seaman, Ron Blackburn, Aronn Heckrodt, Shawn Casimiri, Matt Bacon, and team manager Bonnie House appreciate all the parents for their support and cheers from the sidelines. The coaches also appreciate the Colts themselves for always seeing the fun side of football regardless of the score.

With both a strong Bronco offence and defence in the second half, all the Dragons could do was watch. The entire Bronco defence deserves mention but the play of Reilly Jacques, Mathew Nesdoly and Jacob Morland was exceptional The Broncos now face the firstplace and former 2011 BC Provincial Champions, the Kelowna Lions. The game goes Sunday in Kelowna.
Varsity Golds shut out It was one of the toughest seasons ever for the Salmon Arm Varsity Golds. The winless Golds were defeated by the formidable Mt. Boucherie Bears last Friday at the Apple Bowl in Kelowna with a 41-0 score. The Bears’ win completed an undefeated season in the Okanagan and wrapped up what one sports reporter termed, “a valiant but frustrating season” for the Salmon Arm team.

# David Shiner, Rachael Jeffery, Tina Schoenbach and Rob Sengotta watch some of the on-ice antics during the 17th annual Canadian Cancer Society’s Funspiel held Sunday at the Salmon Arm Curling Club.
Masonic Lodge tops funspiel After 17 years, it was once again a sunny event. The 17th Annual Canadian Cancer Society Funspiel was held Sunday at the Salmon Arm Curling Rink. The theme this year was tropical and many of the teams were dressed up in grass skirts, leis and beach attire. A huge silent auction added to the fun and fundraising, with items and gift certificates coming from many local businesses. Thirty-two rinks participated in this funspiel supported by team sponsors, many of whom return year after year.

Collectively over the past 17 years, thousands of dollars have been raised in Salmon Arm, with this event intended to: •Fund continued research to enable the discovery of new ways to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer. •Provide continued support for programs that will enhance the quality of life for those dealing with the disease. •Increase public awareness through education of the risks of the disease as about half of all cancers are preventable. •Enable continued access to the Cancer Information line and directory where everyone can get current and credible information. The curling club appreciates all those who participated, donated goods and supported the fundraiser, including much gratitude for the tireless volunteers of the Salmon Arm Cancer Society for all their hard work.

Making their mark
# Haldane Elementary School has made their mark nationally by their efforts to go green. It was recently the first school in Canada to receive the Earth 7 Status for successfully completing 7000 environmentally friendly projects. Jethro Morris and Kennedy Erbin, this year’s first two Official Green Kids Club members, hold up a banner representing their achievement.

App lets users swim with salmon Every four years people from across the country and around the world visit Roderick Haig Brown Park to witness one of nature’s greatest stories – the return of the Adams River sockeye salmon. The Adams River Nature Society (ARNS) is working on a project to create an “app” that brings the experience of the sockeye salmon run into the palm of your hand: a tablet
game with enriched and interactive content that tells the sockeye story. The app will allow users to virtually adopt a salmon and take care of it from egg to adult, through stages of its perilous journey from the Adams River to the Pacific Ocean and home again, using mobile smart phones, tablets and classroom smartboards. The next big salmon run is
in 2014. To develop, deploy, test and market the Adopt-ASalmon App, the project is seeking funding. Last week, ARNS received a $4,000 grant for the project from the Shuswap Community Foundation. The project has been taken on by Toronto’s Small Change organization and gifts to the fund will be used to design and develop the app, and pay programmers and graphic art-
MLA claims $6k for travel By Andrea Klassen KAMLOOPS THIS WEEK
What does $1,000 a month buy an MLA in Victoria? In the case of Kevin Krueger, MLA for Kamloops South Thompson, it’s a pad in an RV lot for the fifth wheel trailer that serves as his home base when he’s at the legislature. Krueger claimed $6,000 in accommodation expenses between April 1 and September 30, 2012, according to the MLA travel expense documents released Oct. 31. While the last legislative session ended on May 31, Krueger said he’s often in the capital for other reasons — and was on his way there for a function as he spoke to KTW. “Even when we’re not in session, we have committee meetings, caucus meetings, lots of times when we have to meet,” he said. There are a few options for MLAs who
Kevin Krueger have to travel to Victoria from other parts of the province, each which has a different maximum amount which can be claimed. For those who rent or buy a place to stay in the capital, as Krueger does, the monthly maximum is $1,000. While the rent on his RV pad is more like $1,400 in the summer months, he said it drops in the winter and the amount averages out to about $1,000 a month. “I just go with that,” he said. “It’s less accounting and hotels are much more expensive for me.” During the same period, Krueger also claimed $2,498 in per
diem expenses. MLAs get a per diem of $61 per day while in Victoria on legislative business. Krueger also claimed $13,439 in general travel expenses, and $2,376 in in-constituency travel. According to his expense summary, North Kamloops MLA Terry Lake claimed only $5,959 in total travel expenses for the same six-month period. However, that amount doesn’t include expenses racked up in his role as Minister of the Environment, which are posted separately on the province’s “open government” website. The most recent ministerial expense report for Lake, from August 2012, shows he has just under $20,000 in travel expenses for the year at that time. Neither regular or ministerial expense reports include details of where MLAs traveled, how the got there, or where they dined.
ists for their work. Funds raised from the app itself will be directed toward the society’s ultimate goal of acquiring the property located next to Roderick Haig-Brown Provincial Park in order to protect sockeye salmon and other species of fish and enhance fish habitat.

Heat live up to name in weekend action Five hundred-plus fans and volunteers took in two games last weekend that rocked the rink. Apologies are extended to those who live in the proximity of Art Holding Arena because when each game was over the fans were loud and proud. Friday night, Nov. 2 saw the Grizzlies from Revelstoke come to town. So far this year
they’ve had the Heat’s number but not on this evening. In a battle between two teams that highlighted fast skating and hard hitting, the local side took a 5-3 victory. Captain Kurtis Johnson opened scoring, assisted by Shelby Kostyshen and Reece Forman. The grumpy bears got that one back before Kostyshen got one assisted by McK-
Kurtis Johnson enzie Guardiero and Johnson. Johnson potted his second goal in the sec-
ond frame, with assists from Catlin McLeod and Kostyshen. Revelstoke scored to get it close. In the third period, the Heat scored twice and Grizzlies once. Kostyshen got his second goal, assisted by Ryan Beach and Wade Cline. Johnson completed scoring into an empty net, assisted by Forman. Johnson got the hat
trick along with an assist, while Kostyshen tallied two goals and two assists. Jacob Mattes faced 42 shots between the pipes. On Saturday, Nov. 3 the Penticton Lakers came to town to face the Heat. Chase got two first period goals – the first by Reece Forman, assisted

Councillor reports on impact of Japanese tsunami, nuclear accidents By Martha Wickett MARKET NEWS STAFF
Debris coming to North America from the earthquakes, tsunamis and nuclear accidents in Japan in September 2011 is not expected to be as bad as first
anticipated. Coun. Ken Jamieson relayed this information at a recent meeting of Salmon Arm council after attending a session at the Union of BC Municipalities convention last month. He said the main part of
the debris will probably land on North American shores in the winter months of 2013/2014. “It’s not as bad as expected, but it is still causing a lot of concern,” he said, noting that a number of jurisdictions have come together to
deal with and monitor the potentially radioactive debris, including Alaska, B.C., the Canadian and U.S. governments, as well as U.S. states bordering the Pacific. “The second thing is there’s no radiation showing up on any of the debris,
mainly because the explosions and break down of (nuclear) plants came after the tsunamis hit. Most is on the floor of the ocean near Japan. Volunteers up and down the continent’s coast are cleaning up.” Last month, a Japanese
National Police Agency report confirmed 15,870 deaths, 6,114 injured, and 2,814 people missing in the aftermath of the earthquakes and tsunamis. Five million tonnes of debris is estimated to have gone into the ocean following the tsunami.

Thank you to everyone who honked, waved or gave thumbs up on October 24 at Alexander and Trans Canada Highway for our Polio Awareness campaign. A special thanks to the gentleman who stopped to donate to the cause. To date, Rotary has donated more than $1 billion U.S. towards the eradication of Polio. Due to the work of Global Polio Eradication Initiative, more than seven million people, mainly in the developing world, who would otherwise be paralyzed are walking because they have been immunized against Polio. A child is given the polio immunization in drop form.

November is Foundation Month Rotary International is well known for the good works it does around the globe, various projects in many countries undertaken by local Rotarians and supported by monies from the Rotary Foundation. The Foundation is the monetary arm of the Rotary International, established to allow for a sustainable monetary resource to support projects Internationally; projects such as Polio Plus (to eradicate polio) and the building of schools, digging wells, sending Dentists and Surgeons to help in some of the poorer places and too many more to mention. Promoting Peace is a major goal of Rotary International and
towards this we have been involve in the Youth Exchange programme and the Ambassadorial Scholarship and Peace Scholar Programmes. Another International project is the exchange of vocational groups between countries to learn about how business is done in another culture. In the past it has been a group of business people from mixed vocations. The new focus will be to a single vocation within the group to allow for a more tailored experience. This past September Shuswap Rotary was pleased to welcome our District Governor, Doug Everett and his lovely wife Jacquie. While he was
here he did us the honour of presenting a Paul Harris Fellow. This Fall we have presented several other PHF’s to members, past members and wives of members and have one more yet to present. A Paul Harris Fellow – What’s that? The work of Rotary both within our own country and in the world cannot happen on a continued basis without the Foundation. A Paul Harris Fellow is someone who has donated $1000.00 to the Foundation. As recognition they receive a Certi¿cate and a pin. For every $1000 after the initial donation they receive a PHF with a + designating the number of
times they have reached the Paul Harris Fellow level. Anyone can donate to the Rotary Foundation. It is usually done through a Rotary Club or a friend who is a member of a club. Shuswap Rotary has been a part of the Youth exchange since our beginning here in Salmon Arm. This year we are welcoming Emma Rosell from Sweden and have sent Derek St Onge to Cuenca Ecuador. Derek is looking forward to working with Dr Gene Tymkiw and his dental team when their group arrives for a Surgical/ Dental Mission to the hill country above Cuenca.

SPALDING, JOAN MARILYN (nee Morris) Passed away peacefully in her home at Haven Hill Retirement Centre on November 4, 2012. Marilyn was born in Guelph Ontario on March 31, 1933 to parents Evelyn and Glen. She was married in 1954 to Robert William Spalding of Preston Ontario. Living in Kitchener they began their family with the addition of three children. In 1972 the family moved to Salmon Arm where Marilyn worked in retail while raising her family. In 1992 following the passing of her beloved husband, she moved to Penticton to help run the family coffee bar (The Spotted Dog). Marilyn retired and settled into the role as grandmother (Nana) to Nolan Spalding in 2000. At that time she also enjoyed volunteering at the Penticton Retirement Center gift shop. Marilyn will be lovingly remembered by her children Andy Spalding of Penticton, Karen Spalding of Salmon Arm, David (Lisa) Spalding and grandson Nolan of Penticton. She will be laid to rest alongside her husband during a private family service in Salmon Arm. Our loving mother will be deeply missed and will live in our hearts forever. The family would like to thank the staff at Haven Hill for their care and support in making Marilyn’s final years peaceful. In lieu of flowers, donations in Marilyn’s memory may be made to a charity of your choice or to the Penticton SPCA http://www. spca.bc.ca/penticton.Condolences may be sent to the family through providencefuneralhomes.com.

HILDEGARD HEGEL (nee Gorray) March 30, 1927 - September 27, 2012 It’s is with the deepest sorrow that we say goodbye to our beautiful kind Mother, Grandmother and GreatGrandmother, who slipped away quietly at home after a long couragous battle with cancer. She was born in Wenna-Eickel, Germany and came to Canada in May 1948 with her husband Herman and daughter Renate. Predeceased by her husband of 54 years Herman (1999) and her brother Eric Gorray (2001). Left to chersh her memory are all her 8 loving children, Renate (Bruce) Logan, Laura (Laury) Haines, Margarete (Allan) Gouge, Jerry Hegel, Linda (Dan) Johnson, Ron (Sherri) Hegel, Ray Hegel and Rick Hegel; 13 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren. Also her good treasured friend Marianne and many friends and relatives in Germany. We little knew that morning, that God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you. You did not go alone, for part of us went with you, the day God called you home. You left us peaceful memories. Your love is still our guide. And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side. Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same, but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link gain.

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Gwendolyn Rita Toope (Reid) at 81 yrs. Gwen was born in Green’s Harbour, Newfoundland, where she grew up and where she also met the love of her life, Doug. They were married in 1950 and began their life’s adventure. Because of Doug’s work, they resided in many places in Newfoundland: Gander, Corner Brook, Mount Pearl, Pasadena and Springdale. Gwen was always very active in her community with Kinettes, curling, dancing and square dancing. She and Doug made, and retained, many friends in each town, and when retirement took them to British Columbia in 1985, they returned to Newfoundland almost every summer to visit with family and friends. They lived in Qualicum Beach for a short time and then moved to Parksville where Gwen and Doug became involved in curling, dance, and the Seniors’ Center. In 2001 Gwen and Doug moved to Kelowna. They joined square dancing and became very involved with the Seniors Centers’ dances and activities. Gwen was always instrumental in pursuing new friendships and activities and this kept her and Doug very busy. She loved to walk every day, usually going in excess of 5 km per walk. She received many curling medals and trophies during her curling years, and she was devoted to watching the Canadian national curling championships, rooting for Newfoundland all the way. Gwen had strong family beliefs, and devoted her life to caring for her husband and raising their children. In November of 2000 Gwen and Doug went on their dream vacation to Australia where they stayed for over 6 weeks enjoying the Gold Coast and many sights. Gwen was predeceased by her two brothers, Gordon (Phyllis) and John (Evelyne) and her two sisters, Jenny (Alex) and Olive (Stan) and finally, by her sweetheart, Doug, in 2005. She is survived by her sister, Shirley (Claude), her two sons, Lloyd (Maggie) and Terry (Janet) and her daughter, Linda (Rick). She is also survived by her three grandchildren, Shaun (Kera), Crista and Ashley (Michael), two step grandchildren, Rian (Susie) and Melissa, as well as three great-grandchildren, Terra and Marshall (Ashley) and Kai (Shaun) and three step great-grandchildren, Lewis and Levi (Rian) and Alma (Melissa). She passed peacefully away on October 27th with family at her side and holding her hand. She will be missed. Much thanks to all the staff at Hillside Village and to Dr. Goldberg for their enduring care through the ups and downs. A commemoration of Gwen’s (and Doug’s) life will be held with family and friends during the summer of 2013 in Newfoundland. In lieu of flowers, a donation may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada. Arrangements entrusted to FISCHER’ S FUNERAL SERVICES & CREMATORIUM LTD., Salmon Arm, (250) 833-1129.
