Accidental drug overdoses alarmingly high People are dying of prescription opioid overdoses at the same rate they are dying in drunk driving accidents in southeast B.C. SALLY MACDONALD Townsman Staff
People in southeast B.C. are dying from prescription opioid overdoses at the same rate that they are dying in drunk driving accidents. That’s the finding Interior Health Authority’s medical health
officers brought forward after a research project in conjunction with the B.C. Coroner’s Service. Across southeast B.C., 21 people are dying each year from overdoses of prescribed opioids such as morphine, codeine, oxycodone, hydromorphone and fentanyl. That is a rate of 2.7 people for
every 100,000 people in the Interior Health Authority (IHA). According to the B.C. Coroner’s Service, between two and three people out of every 100,000 die each year in motor vehicle accidents involving alcohol. “People need to know that this is actually a regular occurrence,” said
IHA medical health officer Dr. Trevor Corneil, who authored an October 9, 2012 alert to physicians and pharmacists. What’s more, Dr Corneil said, the rate is even higher if you consider the number of people in IHA who are on opioids. He said of the 25,000 people in the region who
have been prescribed opioids to deal with chronic pain, 22 die every year. Most – 86 per cent – overdose accidentally as opposed to suicide. “That’s huge,” said Dr. Corneil. “There are very few things that have that mortality rate.”

THE POLITICAL FRONT
Kootenay East key to NDP success, Dix says ANNALEE GR ANT Townsman Staff
Provincial NDP leader Adrian Dix toured the East Kootenay this past weekend with Kootenay East candidate Norma Blissett and MLA for Columbia River Revelstoke Norm Macdonald. Dix met with the Townsman on November 9 in Cranbrook. He discussed the issues facing the riding and the province, and he even put in his two cents about last week’s ballot initiative in Washington state that legalized marijuana. On marijuana: Dix was clear that he does not encourage drug use, but said the recent ballot initiative that legalized marijuana in Washington state will soon turn debate on this side of the border. “I do not recommend people smoke marijuana. I think that the way we regulate marijuana today is not the best thing but I am not an advocate of that,” he said. “I am not an advocate of drug use, and I think we have to say that clearly.” He predicts that in the 2015 federal election it will be a campaign issue, because regardless of how B.C. politicians and residents feel, the matter is for the Parliament of Canada. “The federal parliament has decided that marijuana is illegal under the criminal code – in fact the current government has increased penalties in the most recent crime bill for marijuana. So they’ve gone in the opposite direction to I think what most Canadians think is the right approach and now it appears most Americans think is the wrong approach.”

Downtown Victoria’s courthouse had an unusual visitor Thursday: a snowy owl that made a rest stop on the sixth floor. Sporting plumage better suited to swooping down on winterwhite rabbits hopping over snowdrifts, the elegant bird stood out among the street crows and seagulls that dominate the sky in the B.C. capital. But according to bird experts, such sights are rare but not unknown around B.C. and beyond as winter sets in. Canadian Geographic notes that while their thick feathers are suited for year-round life in Arctic regions of North America and Eurasia, some head south in winter as far as the U.S. state of Georgia. Unlike most owls,
snowy owls are not nocturnal. It is believed their daytime hunting behaviour developed during the almost constant daylight of far north summers when they typically nest and breed. Male snowy owls can be completely white, while females always have some brown feathers. A 1994 article by Alan MacLeod for British Columbia Field Ornithologist reports sightings in the Martindale Valley in southern Vancouver Island’s Saanich Peninsula. “Snowy owl has been recorded, and it’s no surprise,” MacLeod writes. “The flats are well suited to this species’ habitat preferences; in their periodic ‘invasion’ years, Snowies are as likely to turn up at Martindale as anywhere else on the peninsula.”

Lost hiker found near Nanaimo C anadian Press
NANAIMO, B.C. — The RCMP say a lost hiker who called 911 for help is OK after he triggered an extensive search. A news release says the hiker, who had been camping with a group of friends, called for help Saturday morning from a remote spot in the Nanaimo area. The 911 operator lost connection with the man because of a bad cellular signal, leaving police with just a name and a rough location. The RCMP then contacted the man’s
camping companions, who hadn’t even realized he was missing, and they told police he was an experienced hiker who was dressed appropriately for the weather. Within an hour of the man’s call, officers searched from the ground with the help of the police dog unit, while an RCMP helicopter took to the air. More than five hours after the 911 call, the hiker found a logging road and flagged down a truck driver, who drove him to his waiting family at the police command centre.
Looking at British Columbia as a whole, Dr. Corneil said that between 80 and 90 people die from prescription opioid overdoses each year. Each month, seven or eight people in B.C. under the age of 60 die from this type of overdose. “That’s the same rate as the number of people killed in motor vehicle accidents involving alcohol. And you know how much air time that gets,” he said. In conjunction with the coroner’s service, IHA medical health officers reviewed all opioid overdose deaths in southeast B.C. between 2006 and 2011. What they found, in addition to the frighteningly high rate, is that most of those who died were under 60 years old (87 per cent), and many (85 per cent) held down a regular job despite their chronic pain. “That means these were quite functional people,” said Dr. Corneil. If they hadn’t overdosed, he went on, “they would still be working, still be productive, still have a reasonable quality of life.” It is easy to see how these overdoses might have come about, he went on. “You can imagine the situation where someone is on multiple medications and has a hard day at work and they might take an extra pain pill and an anti-spasm pill. It’s the regular dose they usually take, and they might take a Tylenol (as well). But that’s enough to tip the balance for their

Cocaine, weapons seized in search sally macdonald Townsman Staff
Police arrested two young men in a Cranbrook motel room last week and charged them with trafficking. According to RCMP, police officers executed a search warrant on the motel in the 600 block of Cranbrook Street North on Wednesday, November 7. Inside, along with two men aged 21 and 22, RCMP found cocaine, a crystal substance believed to be m e t ha m p h e t a m i n e, bear spray, a metal pipe, a machete and handcuffs. Police also seized digital scales, small bag-

breathing centre and they would overdose.” Most of those who died were not on a high dose of prescription opioids – less than 200 milligrams of oral morphine – and only one person was seeing multiple doctors. This finding goes against two misconceptions amongst medical practitioners: that accidental overdoses happen in patients taking high doses of morphine, and that they have prescriptions from multiple doctors, said Dr. Corneil. Almost all of the cases examined by the medical health office – 93 per cent – were prescribed other drugs as well as opioids. These drugs include antidepressants, sedatives, anti-psychotics, anti-nausea drugs, anti-seizure drugs and muscle relaxants. Now Interior Health is recommending physicians and pharmacists take another look at the combination of drugs prescribed to people experiencing chronic pain, and that they avoid prescribing sedatives with opioids. And people who are taking opioids such as morphine and codeine, especially if they are also taking drugs such as anti-depressants, muscle relaxants and sedatives, should be careful to only take the drugs as prescribed. “If you have chronic pain, review your medications with your family doctor. (Particularly) when you are on a combination, take your medications as prescribed,” said Dr. Corneil. If you have any questions or concerns about the medications you are taking, speak to your doctor or pharmacist.
gies, cell phones and cash, which led to RCMP recommending trafficking and weapons charges. “Police were particularly concerned given the weapons found in the room at the time. This creates a huge risk of violence for anyone dealing with these people,” said Cpl. Chris Newel. RCMP don’t always find weapons in such searches, Cpl. Newel went on, but it’s not uncommon. “We are finding that people involved in the drug trade are known to carry weapons because they are protecting themselves and their products.” The pair had their first appearance in Cranbrook criminal court on Friday, November 9.

Dix on jobs, pipelines, marijuana, treaty Continued from page 1 For now it’s time to wait and watch what happens in the two American states – Colorado and Washington, but Dix said his position has been clear on the issue from day one. “I’ve always been a supporter of decriminalizing marijuana possession. I’ve always felt that was the right approach,” he said. “I’m even now probably a moderate on the question.” On the Ktunaxa treaty: Dix said he will be the first to applaud a successful treaty negotiation when a deal is reached between the provincial and federal governments and the Ktunaxa First Nation. “I think one of the mistakes that occurred by the present government was not to build on what the previous government had done on First Nations,” he said. “I’m hopeful they’ll
succeed and if they do I’ll even praise the government because we’ve got to make progress, and it’s been too long.” On Cranbrook and Norma Blissett: Dix said he was proud of the candidate chosen to fight for the NDP’s seat in the riding of Kootenay East, and said he was confident Norma Blissett was the woman for the job. “We have a great candidate, Norma’s going to represent this community and the other communities in the riding so well,” he said. Dix said he and his fellow candidates in the NDP party were focusing on a positive campaign as they look towards the provincial election in May. “The Liberal party continues to run negative campaigns against me and we continue to be positive,” he said. “I think people want to see that.”
unions may not have all the answers, he believes lessons can be learned from them. The federal government is now looking into claims that temporary foreign workers were unfairly selected for coal mining jobs in northern B.C. Dix said immigration is key to a healthy economy, but he wants those workers to be a part of the community instead of coming here temporarily. “I strongly support immigration. When people come to your country to work here they should have, in my view, the option to stay and contribute and be part of communities,” he said. “They were completely off one of the key issues of our time.” Dix saved harsh criticism for recent television advertising launched by the Liberal governments that talk about recent contribution for skills training, and wondered if that
care and education, the productivity of our economy, creating jobs – we think those are the priorities.” At the end of the day, Dix said Blissett is very important to the NDP strategy heading into May. “The NDP has never won government without this seat.”
NDP leader Adrian Dix He believes that Blissett fits in perfectly with his party’s values and will easily connect with the people in the riding. “The thing I like about Norma and our campaign is this isn’t about us, or me being premier or her being MLA. It’s about the things we want to change and I think that’s
in contrast to the Liberal approach,” he said. The election will boil down to who has the better plan in the end, Dix believes, and he said the NDP wants to get back to basics. “The Liberals have spent a lot of money on convention centres and stadium roofs but we think the basics – health
On jobs and skills training: Dix criticized the Liberal government’s failure to adequately train workers, and said even current apprenticship programs are failing to meet the mark. “Eighty per cent of the jobs of the future require skills training and what we’re seeing is that we’re nowhere near that,” he said. Dix estimates that the province’s current apprenticeship program has a 37 per cent completion rate, while unions in the province boast 80 per cent completion. While he said the

money could have been better spent providing the very training they promote. “In the last few weeks the premier has gone on television on this issue. So they cut actual funding to young people, and they’re spending the money on television ads for the Liberal Party,” he said. “I don’t think the people of Cranbrook think it’s a good idea to spend scarce public resources promoting the Liberal Party. Anyone who suggests they do it is out of touch with the people of Cranbrook.”
On pipelines: Dix said the Liberal government has flipflopped on the issue of proposed pipelines through the province and Premier Christy Clark is now fighting for a bigger piece of the pie after handing the decision off to the federal government. “When the polls said that more people favoured the Enbridge Northern Gateway Pipeline than opposed it, we took up a clear position – we told people what it was,” he said. “When you contrast with the premier’s position, which is to hand over jurisdiction to the federal government and then make threats that she could not possibly follow through on such as turning off their power – which is something that legally she couldn’t do. I think we should have a more serious approach to these issues and that’s what we’re presenting.”

Porch fire damages local home Townsman Staff
Cranbrook Fire & Emergency Services responded to a fire call on Sunday night. Fire crews responded to 200 4th Avenue South at approximately 10 p.m. on Sunday, November 11. Upon arrival fire crews found the fire was isolated to an exterior porch and the kitchen at the rear of the building and were able to gain control and extinguish the fire quickly. There was also some smoke damage to the property. There were no injuries as four residents and three pets were able to safely get out of the home. Upon completion of the investigation on November 12, investigators were not able to determine the cause of the fire. Damage is estimated at between $20,000 and $30,000. Officials indicate that quick response and action by fire crews were able to minimize damage to the rest of the home, which will be salvageable.

Opinion/NEWS Letters to the Editor
Carbon credits The “Carbon Neutral or Not” article regarding a “commitment the RDEK signed in 2007” – the Climate Action Charter. Much water has passed under the climate change bridge since 2007. The “anthropogenic global-warming” (AGW) narrative is in its death throes, the consensus media and most governments, including the RDEK, continue to deny this reality. The evidence that carbon dioxide is not a significant factor in controlling our climate is overwhelming. Acceptance of the AGW hypothesis would require us to ignore and/or rewrite the laws of physics and chemistry (e.g. Henry’s Law, first and second laws of thermodynamics, and the Stephan-Boltzmann Law). Driven by an acceptance of the fraudulent anthropogenic global (Gorebull) warming scam, the RDEK has implemented a stunningly stupid policy to buy “Carbon Credits”. This policy is really “anti-green” since it is anti-CO2. I recommend that the RDEK change its direction and its policy. Buying “carbon credits” with taxpayers’ hard-earned dollars is without merit. I recommend that all RDEK directors purchase Ian Plimer’s book as a start, “Heaven and Earth: Global Warming – The Missing Science”, then ponder and analyze its contents before they make any further doltish decisions on how to waste taxpayers’ money.

Taxes in B.C. Does B.C. have Canada’s lowest taxes? As per the tax tables, the worker earning up to $78,000, in Nunavut, Yukon, and Ontario pays slightly lower taxes than in B.C., but the wealthy, big businesses, and rich corporations do enjoy low taxes, due to tax cuts in 2001 by the incoming Liberal government. This resulted in a 2001 $1.8 billion budget deficit. During 1997-2000, with three surplus B.C. budgets, and a treasury brimming with cash, government received 39 per cent of revenue from personal taxation.
With the new Liberals in 2001, that number became 28 per cent due to tax reductions, and then the banks became exempted from corporate taxes. This caused the need to increase all other taxes, via higher fees, licenses, premiums, penalties, levies, tuition fees, the HST, Hydro rates and ICBC rates, the Medical Services tax, and a new carbon tax. “As a source of revenue BC Hydro paid the government more than $7.5 billion since 2001.” (Hydro’s Electrical Union Local 258 newsletter.) To claim “dividends”, Hydro’s operating expenses were “deferred” to the future, causing billions of new Hydro debt. BC Auditor General John Doyle: “Hydro’s debt increased to $7.6 billion in 2006 to $11.6 billion in 2011. Their ‘deferred’ accounting method, for operating expenses to be paid in the future, is deliberately deceiving, and not in compliance with GAAP (accepted accounting principles). It is like using a credit card, and will have to be paid sometime.” Martyn Brown, former chief of staff for Gordon Campbell, now out of politics, in his new book states: “The government is taking more money out of our pockets, as never before, despite touting B.C. pays the lowest taxes in Canada. Government uses every means to avoid visible tax hikes, and to hide the ones they are imposing.” Jordan Bateman, Director of BC Taxpayers Assoc. on Sept. 2012 says: “We need fundamental changes in B.C. Our debt is now $51 billion, and will rise. Every second the clock ticks we go $213.00 more in debt. During 2012, our debt servicing will cost $2.5 billion, just in servicing. The Carbon tax, only levied in B.C., raising $1.2 billion, is hurting many B.C. businesses, jobs, and slows the economy.” The TD Bank recently announced: “Too many British Columbians are now seriously deep in debt.” It appears “fundamental changes” indeed are needed.

Laws of Nature Anyone who has lived in Cranbrook knows: “Do not plant your garden before May long weekend, or the snow is off Mount Baker, whichever comes first.”
Anyone who has tried it knows, your seedlings will freeze. Likewise, anyone working in orthopaedics at Cranbrook’s hospital knows: “If you don’t get your Christmas lights up by Remembrance Day, you are too late,” related to a law of orthopaedics. “A fall from four feet is enough to suffer catastrophic injury (one that cannot be perfectly fixed, taking five months to recover).” Just thought you might like to know.

Tele-town hall We often read of home invasions where a person or persons force their way into your home and hold you hostage or worse for a period of time. Early Wednesday evening we experienced something of the same. The telephone rang and upon answering we were greeted by a man’s voice. He purported to be Mike de Jong and he was holding, he said, “a town hall type of meeting”. I hung up in disgust and went on about other things. When I returned to the phone a few moments later to make a promised call I found the man still on the line! I hung up several times. He was still there. I pushed various buttons but to no avail. I was trapped by this self-serving character and my telephone was effectively out of service. This went on for several more minutes until Mr. de Jong finally deigned to surrender my telephone and I was once again able to use it. Now, if the Liberal Party of B.C. considers the above the way to gain people’s attention with the intent of garnering votes in the next election, they are travelling the wrong roa, for I wish to here and now vow that I never, for as long as this group of callous uncaring clowns are running for public office, give them my vote. And in closing I give notice that I intend using every legal means within my power to prevent another intrusion of this nature. Robert (Bob) Pearce Cranbrook
Premier questions severance for recalled MLAs Tom Fletcher Black Press
VICTORIA – Premier Christy Clark has questioned a decision made in secret by an allparty committee to extend $127,000 in severance pay to MLAs who are recalled by voters. The decision was made in February 2011, at a time when recall campaigns were targeting B.C. Liberal MLAs over the imposition of the harmonized sales tax. It was belatedly disclosed in minutes from the Legislative Assembly Management Committee, which began public disclosure of its proceedings this fall after a critical report from B.C. Auditor General John Doyle. The severance amount equals 15 months of an MLA’s base salary, which was frozen
Penticton MLA Bill Barisoff at $101,859 a year in 2010, when the B.C. government imposed a two-year freeze on public service salaries. Severance has been available to MLAs defeated in elections
since 2007, and also to those who retire at election time before reaching six years in office, when they become eligible for a lucrative pension. Clark was asked Thursday about extending severance to recalled MLAs. She said the government doesn’t control the committee, which is chaired by legislative speaker Bill Barisoff and has both B.C. Liberal and NDP members. “I think a lot of people in a tough economy would look at that and say they don’t get it, and I am one of those people,” Clark said. Clark added she has not had an opportunity to speak to committee members. Barisoff, MLA for Penticton, was one of the B.C. Liberals targeted in anti-HST recall efforts that fell
short. Barisoff defended the decision Thursday, telling reporters that MLAs who are recalled because of cabinet decisions rather than personal misconduct deserve severance so they can make the transition to another job. It can be difficult for defeated MLAs to find work, he said. The committee decided in 2007 to raise MLA pay to the current level, and set a formula for cost-of-living increases. The premier’s base pay was set at 190 per cent of base MLA pay, while cabinet ministers and the leader of the opposition make 150 per cent. The premier and cabinet ministers have since been subject to a 10 per cent pay cut as long as the B.C. budget is in deficit.

Hockey Hall of Fame inducts new class CHRIS JOHNSTON Canadian Press
TORONTO - There is something missing from Joe Sakic’s new plaque at the Hockey Hall of Fame and it’s not because the printer made a mistake. Among the list of his many achievements is no mention of his 21st NHL season, the one that was never played because of the 2004-05 lockout. With the sport back in another dark period brought on by another labour dispute, Sakic reflected on the year that never was on the day he took his place among hockey’s greats. “I lost a year of hockey,” Sakic said Monday prior to the induction ceremony. “It would have been 21 years instead of 20. That’s what you lose.” Fellow inductees Mats Sundin and Adam Oates were also in the NHL when the last lockout hit while Pavel Bure, the fourth member of the class, was already retired. Sundin never managed to win a Stanley Cup during his career and can’t help but wonder what could have been had the 2004-05 been played. “It was awful,” said Sundin. “I think it’s devastating.”
While all four of the inductees seem to have thoroughly enjoyed their induction weekend, the current lockout made it a more subdued affair than usual. They were to have been honoured at Air Canada Centre prior to a scheduled Leafs-Devils game on Friday night - a missed opportunity in particular for Sundin, the longtime Toronto captain, and Oates, who grew up in the city. Sundin is back living in his native Sweden now but the impact of another work stoppage hasn’t gone unnoticed even from a distance.
“When the NHL is not going, people lose focus on hockey.” Mats Sundin “I think it’s huge,” he said. “The National Hockey League is kind of representing the game of hockey. It’s the biggest representative of the game of hockey in the world. When the NHL is not going, people lose focus on hockey. “For everybody that is involved in the sport, it’s huge to get the guys back playing as soon as possible.”

Ice halt slide, shut out Hitmen TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor
A subdued Brock Montgomery wandered the halls in the bowels of Western Financial Place following Saturday’s 4-1 loss to the Moose Jaw Warriors. “I’d rather not, if that’s okay,” he said, when asked if he was up for a post-game interview. Can’t blame him— what’s there to say after his team’s seventh straight loss on home ice? However, the veteran forward vented his frustration two days later, scoring his first career hat trick against the Hitmen as the Kootenay Ice shut out the opposition 4-0 on Monday evening in Calgary—a team at the top of the Eastern Conference. That win snaps Kootenay’s eight-game losing skid, which has plagued the club over the last three weeks. “It’s a big win for our team in a really big building—a first place in the conference team,” said Ice head coach Ryan McGill. The Ice were on the road to the win less than 20 seconds into the game, when Montgomery capitalized off a rebound for his first goal of the night.
NOTICE OF DISPOSITION Pursuant to the authority of Section 26 of the Community Charter, the City of Cranbrook intends to enter into a Lease Agreement with Backside Tours Inc. for a vehicle wash bay and a designated kiosk space in the arrivals area at the Air Terminal Building at the Canadian Rockies International Airport located at 9370 Airport Access Road, Cranbrook, B.C., legally described as: Lot A, (formerly Kootenay Indian Reserve No. 1) Kootenay District, Plan NEP23763 and consisting of approximately 4.3 m2 in the Air Terminal Building plus wash bay space located in the Airport Fire Hall. The Lease shall be for a four month term from December 21, 2012 to April 7, 2013. In consideration of the Lease, Backside Tours Inc. shall pay to the City of Cranbrook $1,227.17 (plus HST) per month. Municipal Clerk

Thirteen minutes later, Montgomery scored again on the powerplay and Kootenay kept the 2-0 lead for the rest of the frame. The Ice shut down the Hitmen in the second period, limiting Calgary to only three shots, while Kootenay pasted 11 pucks on Mack Shields in a scoreless 20 minutes. Kootenay Ice goaltender Mackenzie Skapski preserved the lead by coming up with a big save while killing a penalty at the end of the frame. “I thought we did a good job of not giving them a lot of shots in the opening period, and Mackenzie had to make a key save with about 10 seconds left in the second period on the penalty kill that really set us up for the third period,” said McGill. “We kept it 2-0 instead of making it 2-1 going into the intermission.” Spencer Wand and Kenton Helgesen got physical, dropping the gloves for a fight. Mike Simpson also found himself in a bout with Spencer Humphries, after the Kootenay defenceman laid a big body check on former Iceman Brendan Hurley. Montgomery completed his hat trick roughly seven minutes into the final frame, and Zach McPhee potted

The Ice found their groove on the power play, capitalizing twice after struggling to find the back of the net on the man-advantage over the last eight games. “When you direct more pucks to the net, good things happen,” said McGill, pointing to Montgomery’s second goal, which was scored on a five-on-three powerplay. “Sam [Reinhart] made a helluva pass to Montgomery in front for the tap in, so it was a real, real high skill play.” Skapksi earned his second career shutout,
as he stopped 15 shots, while the Ice doubled up on Shields, putting 30 pucks on Calgary’s net. Their performance on Monday evening was a far cry from Saturday against Moose Jaw. The Warriors earned the win with a 3-0 lead after the opening frame, two goals of which were scored on the man-advantage on the exact same play. Justin Kirsch notched a goal after taking a back door pass eight minutes into the game, while Joel Edmundson found the back of the net just over a minute later on the same kind of play. Twenty seconds after Edmundson’s goal,

Warriors’ left-winger Brandon Potomak found the back of the net. Moose Jaw rode their lead until roughly halfway through the second period, when Levi Cable fed Zach McPhee from behind the net, who roofed the puck top corner to put the Ice on the board. But Moose Jaw responded 37 seconds later, when Kirk Johnson took advantage of a puck that squirted out at the top of the face-off circle, blasting a slap shot past Skapski. The Ice goaltender was recalled to the bench after that, as Hoflin played the remaining 30 minutes. Skapksi made 10 saves in 14 shots, while Hoflin turned away all nine pucks he faced. In the other end, Justin Paulic made 25 saves for the Warriors. The Ice had chances—Sam Reinhart rang a shot off the post in the middle frame, and Paulic robbed Jaedon Descheneau on an oddman shorthanded rush. Paulic again kept his team in it, stoning Montgomery on a thirdperiod breakaway. Jeff Hubic and Edmundson dropped the gloves late in the first period, as the Ice forward tried to spark his team. Tanner Muth also got into some fisticuffs with Jordan Wyton, as the Ice defence man decided to take justice into his own hands when the Warriors forward checked him from behind.

Men’s Avs sweep Cascades, but women fall to top-ranked team Tre vor Cr awley Sports Editor
The Avs split their weekend action at the College of the Rockies, as the men dumped the visiting UFV Cascades in both matches, while the ladies surrendered both games to their opponents. The men swept the opposition by scores of 3-1 and 3-2, as the bottom-ranked Cascades made late game surges on both nights.
“A few big wins for us and that jumps us all the way up tied for second place, so that’s a nice feeling going into our last weekend...” Steve Kamps The women took away one set on Friday in their 3-1 loss, but the topranked Cascades swept them 3-0 the following day on Saturday in a rematch. The men handily took the first two sets on Friday, before the Cascades woke up and retaliated by winning the third. UFV pushed the Avs to a 32-30 finish in the fourth set, which sealed up the win for the hometown team. It was more of the
same on Saturday for the men, as the Avs took the opening two sets before the Cascades responded by winning the following pair, setting up a tiebreak, which the College of the Rockies took at 1512. “I guess both nights— Friday and Saturday— we had repeat performances. We controlled the match the first two sets and handily won them,” said men’s Avalanche head coach Steve Kamps. “On Friday I made a couple of changes that really changed the momentum that kind of let them [Cascades] back into the match but we managed to close it out. “Saturday, same thing—we had control of the first two sets and I left the same guys out there and the same thing happened, so I think there’s more to it maybe than just the guys on the floor.” Saturday’s match was especially tight, and Kamps singles out the play of Curtis Stockton, who was “a dominant force” out the court, getting the chance to play midway through the third set. By the end of the match, Stockton had accumulated 17 kills. “It was nice to have him going, and putting the ball away,” added Kamps. The men climb up the

The women struggled in their second weekend of home action, dropping both their matches to a team that sits atop
the Pacwest rankings. The Avs stole one set in their Friday match, as they fell 3-1 and the Cascades continued their success the next day by blanking the hometown ladies 3-0. The ladies put up a fight on Friday after winning their set, making UFV earn the win by a two-point spread, but struggled on Saturday to find a rhythm as the Cascades handily took all three sets.
Dynamiters split weekend road swing through Okanagan division Tre vor Cr awley Sports Editor
The Kimberley Dynamiters split their weekend action on the road, dumping the Summerland Steam 3-1, but falling 8-5 to the Kelowna Chiefs the following night. The weekend performance puts Kimberley in second place in the Eddie Mountain Division, three points behind the Fernie Ghostriders. Connor Tetlock had a four-point weekend, notching a goal and an assist against the Steam, while scoring twice on Saturday against Kelowna. Dynamiters stopper Jeremy Mousseau stood in net in both games, facing more shots in each contests than his opponents on the other
side of the rink. The Steam took the lead in the second frame after a scoreless first period on Friday evening, when Daniel Kerr posted a power play marker five minutes in. However, the third period was the decider as the Nitros rattled off three consecutive goals to coast to the win. T y s o n Klingspohn got the ball rolling four minutes into the final frame with his third goal of the season. Connor Kutzner followed up at the halfway mark with a power play goal. Tetlock notched the empty-netter with 10 seconds left to close it out.
Mousseau was busy in the crease, turning away 38 shots, while Connor DeMelo stopped 31 shots for the Steam. The Nitros capitalized once in five opportunities with Kutzner’s goal on the power play, while the Steam was good for one goal in four chances. A strong second period propelled the Chiefs to the win on Saturday, as the Nitros fell short of a comeback in the final frame in their 8-5 loss. The two teams remained tied at 2-2 after the opening frame; the Chiefs scored a pair of goals, before the Dynamiters responded with markers from Corson
Johnstone and Tetlock. The Chiefs jumped ahead with six goals in the middle frame, four of which occurred on the man-advantage. During that time frame, the Nitros only scored once on an effort from Jared Marchi. Trailing 8-3 going into the third period, the Nitros managed to score twice on the power play from Sam Nigg and Isaac Schacher. Mousseau again manned the crease, stopping 32 shots, while Tyler O’Donnell turned away 20 shots for the Chiefs. The Nitros hit the road again this Tuesday for a quick trip up to Invermere to face the Columbia Valley Rockies, before hosting Nelson on Friday in the first of a four-game home stand.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Others will not be happy unless you give them the full attention they feel they deserve. Communication falls into the proverbial situation where everyone only hears what they want and nothing more. Try a different approach. Tonight: Relax with a less stressful person. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Defer to others, as they are so demanding that you have little choice. You might feel as if many people do not understand what you are sharing. It would be a different story if they weren’t so self-involved. Recognize that you are wasting your energy. Tonight: Go with someone else’s choice. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Stay even-tempered, and focus on accomplishing as much as possible today. The pace is hectic, but you are up to it. Clearing up as much as possible now will allow you to accept an invitation that otherwise you couldn’t. Tonight: Squeeze in some exercise.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) Others could be tumultuous and even exhausting to watch. Communication might be confusing, and your reaction could take you down an odd path as a result. Stop and center yourself, then go over the situation in your mind. Tonight: Let the fun begin. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Instinctively, you want to retreat from others. People could be overly demanding and not into negotiating. You might decide to spend a quiet day at home in order to steer clear of the uproar; that would be a very smart decision. Tonight: Make it non-stressful. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Your personality comes out in a discussion, which might surprise a business associate. You always are so professional, and people expect nothing less. Allowing others to see your authentic self won’t hurt. Tonight: Have an important discussion over dinner. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You are totally occupied with your finances right now. Unless you have the ability to pull white rabbits out of black hats, you are un-
For Better or Worse
likely to find a money tree in your backyard. Stay realistic. You could get yourself into some trouble otherwise. Tonight: Spend wisely. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You could be overwhelmed by the many possibilities you see. As a result of the enormous amount of activity and tasks you have taken on, you have become rather meoriented. Understand that someone might be needier than you. Tonight: All smiles. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Lying low is acceptable if you are feeling drained. A discussion with a friend or loved one might help. Actually, your fatigue could be blamed on today’s solar eclipse. Be aware that others might be experiencing a similar effect. Tonight: Not to be found. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Emphasize what you want, and focus on that very thing. Friends surround you, but their moods might be volatile and unpredictable. Confusion surrounds a key meeting. Could you be mixing business with pleasure? Tonight: Where the fun is.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Others can’t seem to concentrate or handle a particular problem. Your popularity skyrockets as others reveal how much they need you and want your support. Be willing to say “no” if need be. Tonight: A force to be dealt with. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Believe that there is a solution, and you just have not found it yet. Remain confident and detach from the immediate issue. Your inner sense of confusion could be playing an important role in what is happening. Tonight: Follow the music.

Annie’s Mailbox by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My cousin “Tyler,” who had a host of problems as a teenager, became a policeman at age 23. He was a jerk before he joined up, but now he’s become a bigger jerk. Tyler is always bragging that he can fix parking tickets or give you a ticket just for annoying him. He talks back to people constantly, always trying to have the last word. It’s awful, and it makes family gatherings impossible. His mother is a champion grudge holder and is still angry with Tyler for things he did as a teen. His father is completely passive. Tyler’s wife is OK, although I don’t know what she sees in him. His toddler son is very aggressive. I’ve asked Tyler politely to behave more appropriately, but of course, he won’t listen. I’ve walked out of family dinners and made it clear why. I’ve even spoken to my family about it, but they refuse to avoid occasions just because of Tyler, even though after these gatherings my mother vents to me in the car. I can’t take this anymore, and I now avoid Tyler at all costs. I’m thinking of videotaping him and showing his superiors. I would not trust this man to carry a gun, serve warrants or make arrests. I’m afraid he’s going to do something rash and someone will get hurt, and I’ll have to testify against him at his trial. If any police out there are reading this, I’d like to know what they think. -- No State Dear No State: Earning a badge would not change Tyler from a jerk into a responsible adult, but it does increase the fear levels. However, if he is simply bragging to his relatives and not actually doing anything, there’s not much recourse for you. Your parents get to handle Tyler however they choose, so please stop trying to dictate their actions. But if you dislike your cousin so much that you cannot bear to be in his presence, we agree that you should avoid these family gatherings whenever possible. Dear Annie: I’m one of several people planning our upcoming high school reunion for the class of 1962. There are a few people who have never attended any of our reunions. I know my classmates didn’t have the same high school experience I did. But for the life of me, the one excuse I can’t get my head around is, “I haven’t been a success.” Success means so many things and is different for every person. It makes me sad to think someone would stay away because of that. Please tell those who feel they cannot attend reunions because they aren’t “successful”: We miss you and want to see you on this side of heaven. Time is short and very precious, and we want to spend some of it with you. -- Sad 50th HS Reunion Dear Reunion: You have made a heartfelt plea for people to attend such functions regardless of their personal insecurities. It is not uncommon for attendees to judge themselves against others’ accomplishments, but by the time a 50th reunion rolls around, such fears are meaningless. We know that some people had such a terrible high school experience that they have no desire to relive it in any form, and they shouldn’t be pressured. But for the rest of you, please go. Dear Annie: Dan Peek from Grandparents and Others on Watch, Inc. was right on target in advising “Older Sister” to contact authorities about her brother, the sex offender. We live in a tight community. One woman was having sleepovers at her home while her father, a registered child sex offender, was living with her. She was unwilling to recognize the risk, so we contacted all the parents of the children. We could not endure knowing that she was supplying him with potential victims. -- Serious in the South About Protecting Kids Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Remembrance Day, Cranbrook cenotaph, Sunday, November 11 Barry Coulter photos
The subzero temperatures didn’t stop hundreds from coming down to Rotary Park to take in the 2012 Remembrance Day ceremonies. The Mount Baker Music Dept. (band and choir), conducted by Evan Bueckert, led those in attendence in O Canada and O God, Our Help In Ages Past, and performed a beautiful rendition of In Flanders’ Fields. Padre Ray Green gave the Address and Prayer. Clive Brown, President of the Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 24, Cranbrook, gave the Address, Memorial Charge and Act of Remembrance. The Last Post and Reveille was performed by Dave Ward, and piper Dan McKinnon played The Lament. During the two minutes of silence, a Canadian Pacific train from across town sounded a tribute. The laying of the wreaths and God Save the Queen completed the morning’s ceremonies.
