Neighbours have had enough of road woes
Property owners along New Lake Road must foot the cost of repairs and maintenance; heavy traffic renders the road almost impassable BARRY COULTER
A group of homeowners who live on New Lake Road west of Cranbrook have reached a level of frustration that may compel them to take direct action. The portion of New Lake Road that extends from where the pavement ends to the lake crosses private property in three places. It is unpaved, non-status, and not maintained by any government agency or sub-contractor. But as the only way into New Lake, the dirt road sees an inordinate amount of traffic. New Lake, which is stocked by the Department of Fisheries, sees yearround fishing traffic. But the heavy traffic doesn’t just include vehicles hauling boats to the lake. Members of the public also take snowmobiles, quads and dirtbikes on the road. Hunters also use New Lake
Road for access to additional areas. This heavy usage throughout the year causes considerable deterioration, which the homeowners must repair at their own expense, whether it is grading, plowing or hauling in gravel. The homeowners estimate that the cost of maintenance and repair runs to more than $10,000 a year. “Damage this spring has already rendered parts of the road impassable, so much so, our neighbours have had to park on our property and access their property through ours,” said Kelly Hughston-Bulmer, one of the property owners. Earlier this spring the RCMP had put up police tape, and the property owners themselves had placed a road closed sign at an especially wet and muddy section of the road, to prevent

One of the neighbours, Darlene Wilson, said that recreationists simply tore down the tape, threw
the sign in the bush and tried to cross anyway, which resulted in vehicles getting deeply stuck. “We want the public to continue to have ac-

Education and economy top of constituents’ minds as they grill Kootenay East candidates Bill Bennett and Norma Blissett ahead of the election SALLY MACDONALD Townsman Staff
Education, the economy and Jumbo were hot topics at the second Cranbrook all candidates forum for the May 14 provincial election. Held by Junior Chamber International Kootenays at the Col-
lege of the Rockies (COTR) on Wednesday, May 1, the free event allowed Kootenay East constituents to pose questions to candidates Norma Blissett for the NDP and Bill Bennett for the B.C. Liberals. Moderated by educator Brenda Tyson, the
forum gave each candidate three minutes to introduce themselves, followed by a question and answer period where they had two minutes to respond, and concluded with closing remarks for five minutes for each candidate. A wide variety of
questions were submitted by the audience but themes of education and the economy came up more than once, as well as the controversial Jumbo Glacier Resort proposed for the Columbia Valley.

cess, as they have in the past,” Hughston-Bulmer said. “But we want them to understand that this increased usage equals increased costs. I don’t think they realize they’re
crossing private property and that no government agency maintains the road.” The RCMP told the homeowners they were within their rights to put
up a gate, or otherwise restrict access across their property. But all agree this option is a last resort.

Election marred by vandalism A R N E PE TRYSH EN Townsman Staff
The provincial election is now upon us and the lawns and ditches of the electoral district display the blue, orange or other colours of signs of the respective parties. But as is the case with most election years, some see the colourful signs as an opportunity for mischief and steal or deface the signs. Already there have been some complaints from party representatives. “Over the last two federal campaigns and the last two provincial campaigns, the NDP sign boss has
never seen this level of vandalism,” said Jennifer Burgis, who is working with Norma Blissett’s campaign. Donna Cummins, district elections officer for Kootenay East, said that if there is sign vandalism, it’s something that likely happens every election. She said the Elections B.C. doesn’t deal with vandalism or theft of the signs. Elections B.C. urges the public to contact police if they have knowledge or see signs being stolen or vandalized.

Retired CP Rail employee Peter Twarowski and his son Lloyd stand beside the old ALCO engine, first in Fernie in 1954, then in Cranbrook in 2008. This old train now sits at the top of Baker Street in Cranbrook beside the Elko train station. The Cranbrook Sunrise Rotary Club has been working diligently for the past 12 months to restore this historic engine, using donations and in-kind work. Now they are close, but need more funds to finish the job this July. If you are interested in contributing to the project, please contact Frank Vanden Broek at 250-421-1523.

Election offers four advance voting days Continued from page 1 The RCMP said that sign vandals could be charged with Mischief under the Criminal Code, Section 430. Wilful damage to election signs is not covered under the B.C. Elections Act but rather by the police or municipality. Elections B.C. itself deals with placement of signs and sometimes the removal of unwanted signs. “They can’t have a sign around a voting place,” she said, explaining that as the office was a voting place, no signs are permitted nearby. On the subject of voting, Cummins said there is still plenty of time and ways to get your vote in, even before general election day. The general day for voting is May 14, but there are four advanced voting days on May 8 – 10 which give opportunity to get your ballot cast as well. Cummins said if those days don’t work, then people can go in for absentee voting at the downtown district electoral office at 113 Baker Street.
“If people are going to be away during any of those general voting times, then they can come into the office,” Cummins said. She said in the last election, most people voted in the advanced voting days of the election. For the advanced voting days, the hours are 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. However on the general voting day May 14, the hours are 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. because they have to match up with the election times in Victoria. “The law says 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Pacific time, so it has to be 9 – 9 here,” she said, adding that there were people who showed up at 8 a.m. last time and had to come back at 9 a.m. You can also vote absentee if you are from out of town or in another city as long as you bring the required ID and are registered. People should also be receiving their “where to vote” card in the mail. For more info on voting contact the district electoral office at 250417-6006.

Too cold to tiptoe through the tulips CA R OLYN G R ANT Daily Bulletin
The Tiptoe Through the Tulips event at Cominco Gardens, planned as part of the First Saturday celebrations tomorrow has been cancelled. The reason is simple — it’s been so cold that the tulips aren’t blooming yet. Cominco Gardens has spectacular tulip beds and it was hoped to showcase them this
weekend, while Selkirk students fundraised with a lemonade and cookie stand. However, cold spring weather has delayed everything and the event will be pushed back until the flowers are in full bloom. It shouldn’t be too long if it warms up this weekend as promised. Stay tuned. All other First Saturday events are still on as advertised.

Local educators gathered to make an impression on Premier Christy Clark during her visit to Cranbrook on Tuesday, April 30.
Teachers rally at premier’s event S a l ly M ac D o n a l d Townsman Staff
Cranbrook teachers gathered outside the Heritage Inn on Tuesday evening to catch the attention of Premier Christy Clark as she arrived there for a campaign rally. “The election is looming. We need Premier Christy Clark and the BC Liberals to pay attention to our message. We need to stop being attacked for
public education. We need to stand up for teachers and students and families,” said Shelley Balfour, president of the Cranbrook District Teachers’ Association. Local teachers stood outside the hotel with signs decrying the state of education in School District 5. “We need the premier to listen to what we’re saying. It’s not about a bunch of union
“Their class sizes are our working conditions and we need to tie those together and make sure that somebody is listening to this message.” Shelley Balfour rabble rousers out here. We have a message; we need her to
listen,” said Balfour. “Christy is always touting about families — we are about families. We’re trying to give kids smaller class sizes. Their class sizes are our working conditions and we need to tie those together and make sure that somebody is listening to this message.” The B.C. Liberal government announced in January that it hopes to work
with the B.C. Teachers’ Federation to draft a 10-year collective agreement with teachers in order to provide more stability for students. “To be honest, that’s nonsense. Who would sign that? Not in this climate we have. What are our guarantees? Ten years locked into an agreement makes no sense to any one of us,” said Balfour.
New Lake Road residents seek recourse for ongoing damage Continued from page 1 Hughston-Bulmer said everyone was under the impression it was a Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure tenured road. However, when the property owners took their concerns to MOTI, it turned out that the tenure belonged to a road that does not form part of New Lake, and which decades earlier had gone around the other side of two properties. Therefore, the road the public now uses to access New Lake and area exists in a kind of limbo. “We’re not asking to build up the road, or have it upgraded to
higher standards — just to have it graded in summer and plowed in winter,” Wilson said. The property owners have had meetings with representatives of the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations and the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure. But no one seems to want to take ownership of the road. Forestry will only do partial maintenance during active times for harvest activities. “They (the MOTI) agreed they would survey the road but not upgrade or maintain it,” Wilson said. “We would have to agree to
“We enjoy living here, we live here for a reason … We want the public to enjoy it too, but we are really asking the public for some understanding and support.” Kelly Hughston-Bulmer
give them that portion of our properties where the road crosses, with no compensation and we, the owners, would still be responsible for all maintenance.” Wilson added that they were aware of
several other much more remote roads that are maintained by the Ministry of Transportation. At the moment, that is where the issue stands between the property owners and the MOTI. But the damage to the road continues, with vehicles getting stuck on a daily basis in the spring mud. Wilson said the owners are already preparing to have loads of gravel brought in to repair the road. “We don’t want to block off the road at all, but it’s getting to the point where it may be the only option.” Wilson said. “We can’t go on paying these
maintenance costs.” “We enjoy living here, we live here for a reason,” Hughston-Bulmer said. “We want the public to enjoy it too, but we are really asking the public for some understanding and support.” They said they are hoping the residents of Cranbrook and area will raise some concerns, “so we can all access this beautiful area without damaging our vehicles and release the property owners from the maintenance costs of what is basically a public road.” As of press time, representatives of the MOTI were unavailable for comment.

Bennett, Blissett square off at forum for input. “MLAs discuss every issue in the caucus room. Every MLA has an opportunity to express their point of view,” he said. Another question asked the candidates how they would support post-secondary education, outside of skills training. “It has been a goal of mine to increase the nursing program at COTR to four years and we are almost there,” said Bennett. “I want to train nurses here because if we train them here they will stay here. But it requires a strong enough economy so we can spend money on the things we need to do.” Blissett said the NDP will introduce a needsbased student grant program. “It’s a way to increase access to post-secondary education for students who can’t afford to go.” The candidates were asked for their position on Jumbo Glacier Resort, the proposed all-seasons ski resort near Invermere where a municipality has just been created prior to construction of the resort. “I am not in favour of Jumbo,” said Blissett. “We don’t need it, let alone that most people who live here including the Ktunaxa are opposed. I would rather support ski resorts that support towns, promote the tourism that exists

and grow the local economy.” Bennett said the creation of the Jumbo municipality was about due process. “You can’t have a project like Jumbo in the approval process for 22 years and not see it through. At some point, the proponent deserves a decision,” he said. Two questions related to the province’s involvement with local governments. First, the candidates were asked how their party proposes to help with the infrastructure deficit Cranbrook and many other Canadian municipalities are facing. “This is a very serious issue for local government and it’s not easy to address it. Our government has invested billions of dollars in infrastructure in this riding over the past 10 years. We need a strong
economy to do that,” said Bennett. Blissett said infrastructure is an issue all over the country. “I want to have a respectful relationship with local government. If I become MLA we need to form a team to work on issues in the area. There aren’t any easy answers and we all need to work together,” she said. Another question asked how candidates will address the concerns of rural B.C. “What makes it so good to live here is that we have everything we need in town then we are surrounded by beauty so I don’t want city growth to affect that,” said Blissett. Bennett said he has a long track record of advocating for rural issues in the legislature. “I have spent the past 12 years defending

the interests of rural people all over the province. I am known as a champion for rural interests,” he said. The debate kept coming back to talk about the economy. Blissett was asked why she thinks the 1990s were a positive period for B.C.’s economy. “More people moved here in the 1990s than during the time of the B.C. Liberals,” she said, adding that there was higher growth in gross national product in the 1990s than since then. But that’s not the point, Blissett went on. “We need to manage the economy of today. It doesn’t matter about the economy of the 1990s – this is 2013 and there are very different issues now,” she said. “We need a government that is focused on today and that will do a better job of managing the economy we have now.” But Bennett said what happened to the economy during the last NDP government is very relevant.
“The best way to assess what will be done in the future is to assess what was done in the past,” he said. “Anybody who was in business in the 1990s is going to know it was a terrible period and we simply are not going back to that.” The contrast between the two candidates was clearest when they were asked whether they would work to reduce the size of government or increase it. “Having a smaller government and a bigger economy is a goal of the B.C. Liberals,” said Bennett. “That’s a good thing – spending more money should not a be a measurement of success. The goal should be to provide services for the least amount of money possible.” Blissett said the B.C. Liberals have gone too far in reducing government ministries. “There are 1,000 less people in the Ministry of Forests. They have had their staff and costs reduced to the point

Discussion on education touched upon the B.C. Liberals proposed 10-year agreement with teachers. “The 10-year agreement is an opportunity for teachers to know what they are going to get. We need to take the disruption and negativity out of schools,” said Bennett. “This is not about teachers – it’s about a system that doesn’t function. We have got to have the political courage to solve it.” Blissett said 10 years is a long time. “We do want stability – teachers don’t want job action either. But we are hoping to have a more flexible government to work with,” she said. “A lot of people who support the NDP have high expectations. The financial situation is grim and I’m not sure we can make all of your dreams come true. I hope for understanding from my teacher friends.” Blissett, a high school teacher and former forester, was asked if she would excuse herself from government’s negotiations with the B.C. Teachers’ Federation because of a conflict of interest if she is elected MLA. “When the negotiations come up, I don’t think I’ll be involved. I don’t think I’ll be Minister of Education to start off,” she said. Bennett suggested she would still be asked
where they can’t do their jobs. We have to increase staff in the Ministry of Forests. I don’t mean big, fat government, but we do need to bring it back into balance.” In closing, Blissett said voters’ choice on May 14 is about transparency. “We are trying to be upfront and clear with what we want to do,” she said. “We need to build credibility in government. I have met so many people who say they can’t believe anything any of us say. We have got to change that. We need to do a better job. “We’re not here for one term. We intend to start a decade of NDP government. We are going to do a good enough job that you will vote us in again and again.” In contrast, Bennett told his constituents that he has the experience to continue representing them in Victoria. “You get your money’s worth from your local MLA,” he said. “I work pretty hard and I love the work. “I have stood up for you in Victoria and I have the scars to show for it.” Bennett said choosing change for its own sake is unwise. “Why pick change when we have a strong economy?” he asked. “We all should consider what we have today in B.C. If you look around the world, economies are struggling. We are in pretty good shape.” General voting day in the B.C. election is Tuesday, May 14 with booths open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. In Cranbrook, you can vote at College of the Rockies, the Prestige and the Fraternal Order of the Eagles Hall. Advance voting will be held at the Eagles Hall on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, May 8 to 11.

Election issue 2013: forests and logging Part of a series comparing party platforms on an issue-by-issue basis To m F l e tc h e r Black Press
The B.C. Liberals and NDP agree on one thing when it comes to B.C.’s vast forest resource: marketing B.C. wood to Asian markets remains a high priority. Their bitterest disagreement is over log exports, although neither party offers a clear strategy as the May 14 election approaches. The NDP election platform blasts the B.C. Liberals for presiding over a doubling of log exports to 5.7 million cubic metres between 2009 and 2012, with “no plan to curtail the flow. “We will work with stakeholders to reduce raw log exports and create more value-added forestry jobs in British Columbia,” says the NDP platform, repeating its 2009 campaign pledge. The B.C. Liberals tout their success selling lumber to China and Hong Kong, whose share of B.C. lumber exports has grown from
6.6 per cent in 2006 to 32.6 per cent in 2011. The B.C. Liberals say their marketing partnership with Ottawa and the forest industry has sold enough lumber to keep 16 mills operating. “Banning exports of unprocessed logs won’t solve timber access issues for mills, especially coastal ones,” the B.C. Liberal platform says. “Our preference is to have logs milled here at home, but log exports are a key component to growing our coastal forest economy and keeping people employed in British Columbia.” The Coastal Forest Products Association argues that each highgrade log sold abroad supports harvest of two more logs that go to domestic sawmills. Platform highlights: • The B.C. Liberals propose to increase the budget for planting and silviculture in pine beetle-affected forests by $10 million a year, start-
School District seeking input on education priorities Arne Petryshen Townsman Staff
School District 5 is looking for input from the public on what its education priorities should be in the future. District trustees plan to take that information and present it to the two provincial MLA candidates to get their feedback prior to the May 14 general election. The survey follows on the heels of a public consultation that helped define the survey and the educational platform that the district plans to present to the candidates. The Education Priority Survey is available only until Monday, May 6 on SD5’s website. Board chair Frank Lento explained that there are four pillars to the education plan: Funding, buildings, pro-
grams and technology. The short survey asks respondents to indicate what they think funding priorities should be, as well as thoughts on other issues like whether the Ministry of Education should fully fund the provincial government’s mandated programs, and if inflation should be addressed with regard to education funding. “We’re going to get some feedback from parents and from their responses I think we’ll formulate some questions for the candidates,” he said, adding that the survey seeks to get a sense of the feelings from parents and the public on the importance of the facets of the four pillars. The Education Priority Survey is available online for input until May 6 at www.sd5.bc.ca.

Political parties want to export more lumber and fewer logs. ing in 2015. The party promises to consult with communities and industry to make a transition from volume-based harvest licences to area-based tenures, a plan that was withdrawn from the legislature amid criticism earlier this year.
• The B.C. NDP promises a $100 million investment over five years to double the number of seedlings planted and update forest inventories. The party has revived a proposal for a “jobs protection commissioner” to help adapt to reduced
timber supply due to pine beetle damage. • The B.C. Conservatives propose to review Crown forest land tenures and “where appropriate, modify or change forms of tenure to ensure wealth and employment generation.” The party also
wants to increase research, reforestation and marketing of forest exports abroad, but offers no specific plans or budget commitments. • The B.C. Green Party proposes to offer low-interest start-up loans “to encourage small, labour-intensive
eco-forestry.” It also wants to hold an inquiry into “stumpage manipulation,” and “accelerate tenure reform to require no less than 50 per cent of public forest tenures be held by First Nations woodlots and communities by the year 2019.”

He is acclaimed in music capitals around the world for his beautiful voice, intelligent musicianship and sparkling dramatic sense. Through his career he has performed in concert with the world’s leading orchestras and in the most prestigious recital venues.

Venturing into the Wild West My sister and her husband are threatening to visit me here in the East Kootenay for only the third time in over 50 years, so I felt it would be my duty to give the duo some warning of what they might expect to encounter here. Dear Pamela: We are delighted (and intrigued) that you and Clifford intend to visit me here in Cranbrook. The whole populace will be delighted to meet you and many of them wonder how genetics work. Would it be possible that two people, such as you and I, could be at all alike? When ‘Jimmy’ and I came here back in 1958, Cranbrook was a tiny town that called itself a city crouched in a hollow between the Rocky Mountains and the Purcell Range. Now, after 54 years, it’s a bit bigger but with grandiose ideas. The sewage system is much improved and we do have traffic lights to impede our travels. As to the question you asked about clothing. In spite of eastern opinion of us, civilized clothing (not buck-skins) will be necessary. In fact, wrap up warmly. It will be June — ‘road repair’ season — when you arrive and winter still a month away. It will probably not be as wet as you are accustomed in Toronto because those so-
called depressions from the Pacific dump rain non-stop on Vancouver but then, finding several large mountain ranges in the way, say to themselves, “Let’s go drench Ontario. They deserve it.” That, I am afraid, is the attitude of locals too. Most of our problems emanate from Ottawa or somewhere else ‘Back East’, so I shall be forced to point out to you and Clifford that many locals are very fond of guns Peter and hunting. They are inWarland clined to be fairly peaceful in June, when you plan to visit, but some do have a penchant for shooting at people from anywhere further east than Fernie (see map) and that, I discovered by consulting another map in an atlas, includes Toronto, where you happen to live. But don’t worry. I have a plan. I shall announce that you are from England; with your accent, I know I’ll get away with it. If you intend to do any shopping during your sojourn here, I have to point out that we have no ‘Ikea’ nor a ‘Bay’ but, by the time you’ve made your way over the Rockies, we should have a ‘Target’ for you to aim at. That must surely thrill you. By June when you get here, theoretically, it will be blossom time, if severe frosts haven’t killed everything. All kinds of things like wild cherry and dandelions will

be showing off, brightening up the landscape. Plants being nurtured by the citizens, however, will have been frozen for the third or fourth time or eaten by the deer. The thousands of deer, fed up to the teeth with being shot at out in the rapidly diminishing ‘bush’, have moved into town and set up colonies here. They will not be squeezed into ghettos; they are much too proud for that. However, some people have put themselves into ghettos for safety sake. As I already stated, June is in that brief time of year that we call jokingly call ‘road repair’ although, quite frequently, city and provincial road crews are on vacation during this time, so there is a good chance that, when you cross the Rockies from Calgary, you will be held up by such things as avalanches or huge great holes in the road. Do not venture down into any of these holes as the unfortunate internees may have been there for days and might possibly attack you. American tourists can be ferocious. I hope you’ll give me warning of your impending arrival; I’ve been getting rid of stuff but the house still looks like a land-fill. If I can just persuade my overly-zealous neighbours to stop harassing me about the state of my yard, I shall try to clean up a bedroom for you. Oh, and I must remember to find my razor and new dentures. Your loving brother, Peter

Downtown Kimberley
When Premier Clark visited Kimberley on Tuesday, her purpose was not talking one-on-one with residents in the Platzl, although she did do that as well. Her time was spent talking to business owners on the Platzl. We have many unique businesses that are doing very well, contrary to rumours of demise in the downtown area. Premier Clark talked to four of these business owners, getting a tour of their business and
discussing what and why they are doing it here. Bridgit Franyo at the Snowdrift was her first stop. She also talked to Ryan Tarves and his partners at the new Spirit Rock Climbing Wall, made chocolate with Steve Moon at La Lune de Chocolat and finally heard Trevor Knight’s inspiring story at Kootenay Mountain Works. It would have been great to showcase more of our fine business community, but the visit was short. The dozen business owners who sit on
the Downtown Business advisory group are putting a revitization plan together for the downtown area. When actions are implemented, the look and feel of the downtown area will reflect the vibrancy of the businesses that are there. Plan to attend the ‘1st Saturday’ activities in the Platzl beginning at about noon this Saturday, May 4. There are a lot of very good reasons to be in downtown Kimberley! Don McCormick Kimberley
Crossing the Great Divide (With Wilby at the Wheel)
JANUS:
Then & Now
Jim Cameron
O
kay, let’s get a few things straight right from the outset. When we speak of “The Great Divide” we are not talking about anyone dying. We are speaking of the geological — or more precisely, hydrological — Continental divide, which separates the waters that flow to the Pacific from those of the Atlantic. It runs from the top of Alaska to the bottom of South America, and is the title of numerous songs, a band or two, some movies and books and a micro-brewery in Denver, Colorado — but that is of little interest here. The fact that it separates B.C. from Alberta is. Further, when we speak of “Wilby at the Wheel,” he wasn’t. Oh, he was in the car, all right, but he wasn’t driving. Fonce “Jack” Haney was driving and by the time the trip was over they weren’t speaking to one another. Long trips can do that and this was a very long trip. Later, when Thomas W. Wilby wrote a book about the adventure he conveniently neglected to mention Mr. Haney at all. Thus, Wilby is generally known as the man of the hour and Haney the other guy. The book

Thomas Wilby (left) and Jack Haney and, somewhere under all those pennants, their 1912 REO sedan. “A Motor Trip through Canada” chronicles the 52-day trip from Halifax to Port Alberni on Vancouver Island in 1912 — the first Trans-Canada automobile trip — and the road passed through Cranbrook. Travelling across Canada by car in 1912 was no mean feat. The journey traversed the “All Red Route”, the all-Canadian, occasionally non-existent, southern road-way system marked on maps with the traditional cartographer’s red of Great Britain and was sponsored by Ransom E. Olds, former developer of the Oldsmobile and, at the time, owner of the REO Motor Car Co., with factories in Lansing, Michigan, and St. Catherine’s, Ontario. Messrs Wilby — an older English writer — and Haney — a young American mechanic — travelled in a new REO five-seat touring sedan. It was repre-

The REO crossed the Continental Divide on Oct. 3, reaching Michel at noon and arriving at the Fort Steele/Wardner junction near dusk, where it was met by four vehicles carrying Cranbrook dignitaries, newspapermen and auto enthusiasts.

Ice select ten prospects in WHL Bantam Draft TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor
The Kootenay Ice have laid the foundation for future teams by selecting ten players in the WHL Bantam Draft on Wednesday in Calgary. Head scout Garnet Kazuik led the way, working with general manager Jeff Chynoweth and head coach Ryan McGill to make his selections, which included two wingers, three centres, four defencemen and one goaltender.
“We walked away very, very happy with the players that we drafted today.” Garnet Kazuik “From a scouting perspective, we’re really happy,” said Kazuik. “We walked away very, very happy with the players that we drafted today. It’s exciting for those players today and now they get to have an exciting day and get to work and show us what they got at training camp.” Kazuik kicked things off with Kootenay’s ninth overall selection in the first round, nabbing Jared Legien, a winger out of Pilot Butte, Sask. Legien, a 14-yearold, played for the Prairie Storm in the Saskatchewan Bantam AA League, collecting 40
goals and 26 assists in 26 games. “Jared’s a gifted player that has the ability to score goals—shoots the puck very, very well,” said Kazuik. “He can score, he’s got very good hockey sense, very gifted offensively in the offensive zone. As like with most kids, when they’re that young, and they have that offensive talent to them, their game is still evolving.” Legien will step up into Midget AAA next season, where he will continue to develop, added Kazuik. “Jared’s going to learn a lot of things this year playing Midget AAA and once he gets under the tutelage of Ryan McGill—Ryan’s going to show him a lot of things [like] defensive zone responsibilities, and being a responsible 200-foot player, so that will come.” Vince Loschiavo, a centre out of Winnipeg, MB., was chosen in the second round, while Declan Hobbs, a goaltender in the Greater Saskatoon Hockey League, was picked up in the third round. Kazuik had a bonanza of picks in the fifth round, including three consecutive slots in a row, which he used to take Robert Johnson, Dallas Hines and Andy Stevens. The Ice head scout called it a day after the seventh round.

Staal to lead Canada at world championship DONNA SPENCER Canadian Press
STOCKHOLM, Sweden - The Canadian team will look to one of the country’s most decorated players for leadership at the 2013 IIHF Men’s World Hockey Championship. Eric Staal was named Canada’s captain Thursday. The 28-yearold from Thunder Bay, Ont., is one of only eight Canadian hockey players to win a world championship, Olympic gold medal and Stanley Cup during his career. Staal was a forward

on the last Canadian team to win a world title in 2007. The Carolina Hurricanes captain is the lone player on Canada’s roster for the 2013 world championship who won Olympic gold in 2010. He won a Stanley Cup in 2006. “It’s an honour, obviously, to play for your country and play with some of the great players we’ve got here,” Staal said Thursday. “It also means I’m getting older and I’ve been around a little while. We’ve got some young faces in there and guys that are eager to get started. I’m glad I’m going to get an opportunity to play alongside these guys and have a chance to play in a good tournament and try and win a medal.” Canada opens the tournament Saturday against Denmark followed by Switzerland on Sunday at the Globe Arena. Winnipeg Jets for-
ward Andrew Ladd and Dallas Stars defender Stephane Robidas were chosen assistant captains. Ladd won Stanley Cups with Carolina (2006) and Chicago (2010). Robidas is the oldest player on the team at 36 and has played in two previous world championships for Canada in 2006 and 2001.
“Eric, coming off a gold-medal win in the Olympics, I think he knows what it takes to win,” Canadian head coach Lindy Ruff said. “If you look at the other two guys, both players have been involved, in one way or the other, in big games
throughout their careers whether it’s for Canada or for their individual teams. All those players are players that the younger guys look up to and respect.” Staal’s younger brother and Hurricanes teammate Jordan is also on Canada’s world championship team in Stockholm. Eric has been Carolina’s captain since 2010. He led the Hurricanes in scoring this lockout-shortened season with 18 goals and 35 assists in 48 games. He had a goal and five assists for Canada at the 2010 Winter Games in Vancouver. The other Canadians to win what is considered hockey’s three biggest prizes and enter the IIHF’s “Triple Gold Club” are Scott Niedermayer, Rob Blake, Joe Sakic, Brendan Shanahan, Chris Pronger, Jonathan Toews and Patrice Bergeron.

Jarret Stoll and Adam Cracknell meet in first round Tre vor Cr awley Sports Editor
Two Kootenay Ice alumni are currently slugging in out against each other in the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs, as Jarret Stoll and his L.A. Kings clash against Adam Cracknell and the rest of the St. Louis Blues. The two never played together in the same year—Stoll graduated to the AHL just as Cracknell began his rookie season in the WHL with the Ice. Stoll spent four full seasons with the Kootenay Ice, winning two WHL championships in 2000 and 2002. He served as captain during the second championship and guided the team to a Memorial Cup championship in Guelph. Since his days wearing an Ice uniform, Stoll has moved to the professional level in the NHL, suiting up for the Edmonton Oilers for five years, before moving on to the L.A. Kings. Stoll came one win shy of a Stanley Cup with the Oilers in 2006, losing out to the Carolina Hurricanes in Game Seven, however, he captured hockey’s most treasured prize last year with the Kings during a remarkable
Jarret Stoll
Adam Cracknell post season run. Cracknell joined the Ice in 2003 and played for four seasons under head coach Cory Clouston. In 2005, Cracknell and the Ice powered into the Western Conference final against the Kelowna Rockets,
losing the series in six games. He was selected in the ninth round of the 2004 NHL Entry Draft by the Calgary Flames, and spent time in the AHL under former (and now current) Ice coach Ryan McGill. Cracknell ended up in the St. Louis Blues system after signing as an unrestricted free agent in 2009. He has suited up for the Peoria Riverman—the Blues’ AHL affiliate—and led as captain in the 2011/12 season. Cracknell’s season with the Rivermen ended with the team outside of the Calder Cup playoff picture, h ow e v e r, the right-winger got called up by his parent NHL club to join the Blues for the end of their season at the beginning of April.
Better Off With Bill • On May 14th, we can choose to continue in a positive direction, with low taxes, a balanced budget, a growing economy and a strong independent MLA who puts us first. • Or, we can choose to go back to the NDP. The NDP say they will raise your taxes, will not balance the budget, but will spend an additional $3 billion of your money. Their record is one of economic failure. Their leader has proven he cannot be trusted.
Ice draft new prospects Continued from page 8 In 33 games, Benson tallied 57 gals and 89 assists for 146 points. Benson was highly touted as the player who would be taken first overall, and there wasn’t a lot of other surprises as each franchise made their picks throughout every round, said Kazuik.
“That’s the beautiful thing about the draft, is that we know there’s 22 teams, there’s 22 lists that are totally different, so no, there’s no surprises, but we’re just happy with the guys that we drew out and we were fortunate to get a lot of guys that we liked,” Kazuik said.

TORONTO - The Toronto Blue Jays are looking to a familiar face to replace ailing starter Josh Johnson. Left-hander Ricky Romero will make his season debut Friday after Toronto placed right-hander Johnson on the 15-day disabled list Thursday. Johnson missed his last start due to inflammation in his right triceps. The move is retroactive to April 29. “Yesterday we thought he was going to be OK,” said Toronto manager John Gibbons. “He went out, played some catch, throw his bullpen, but then he started complaining
‘y’know what, it really hasn’t gone away.’ “He was still a little bit concerned about it.” Johnson is 0-1 with a 6.86 earned-run average in four starts since being acquired in an off-season trade with the Miami Marlins. “He’d been feeling pretty good, but he hadn’t thrown in a while, but then he played catch on the side (Wednesday) and it felt pretty good but he still hadn’t aired it out,” said Gibbons. “He was airing it out a little before stepping on the mound and he heard alarm bells.” Romero has 125 career starts with Toronto with a 51-43 record and 4.09 ERA. However, the 2011 all-star struggled in
spring training and started the season in the minors to work on his mechanics. He had one start with single-A Dunedin, allowing one run on six hits in seven innings. “(Blue Jays roving pitching instructor Dane Johnson) felt he was ready to go,” said Gibbons. “Ricky feels good, he’s anxious to do it.” Toronto also recalled right-hander Brad Lincoln from triple-A Buffalo but Gibbons said the Blue Jays will make a move after Thursday’s game against Boston to make space for Romero. Lincoln has made two appearances for the major league club this season, allowing two runs in two innings.

NEWS Feathered feud over angry birds in Kelowna costs high school its owl
THIS WEEK

KELOWNA, B.C. — The stylized owl used as the mascot for a Kelowna, B.C., high school has ruffled some feathers south of the border. Kelowna school board officials are being forced to give a hoot after receiving a letter from Temple University in Philadelphia warning that Kelowna Secondary School’s team logo clearly infringes on Temple’s copyright for Hooter the Owl. The two scowling owls are virtually identical, except for the addition of small horns on the KSS raptor and some minor shading differences. The KSS owl has been used since about 2002, but Temple’s trademarked version predates that. “We are basically in the wrong for using the owl,’’ school board secretary-treasurer Larry Paul acknowledged Wednes-

day. “We’re in the process of changing it to something else.’’ Since the letter from Temple was received last week, the KSS owl has been removed from the school’s website. It will also be taken off letterheads and jerseys, and scrubbed from the centre of the school gym floor. Costs for removing the foul owl haven’t been determined, Paul said. A new owl-themed logo will be designed, either by commissioning a local artist or having a contest among KSS students, he said. It wasn’t immediately known how or why KSS came to be using a logo that so closely resembles that of a major American university, or why the teachers who approved its use didn’t realize it might represent a copyright infringement. Paul said his understanding of the situation was that, a decade ago,
some KSS teachers simply came across the Hooter the Owl image and believed that, with a few modifications, it could be used by the school. “My guess is they simply thought, ‘Hey, that’s pretty cool, let’s use that,’’’ Paul said. “They might not have realized that copyright protection extends down from professional sports teams to include colleges and universities.’’ It’s also unknown how KSS’s use of the owl came to the attention of Temple University officials more than a decade after it was first used in Kelowna. A call to Temple’s public affairs department was not returned Wednesday. “Who knows how they became aware of it?’’ Paul said. “Maybe one of the kids who went to KSS wound up at Temple sometime, and he said, ‘Hey, you’ve got the same logo we had at my high school.’’’

Experimenting with the power of love L ast week, I suggested a new way of dealing with our enemies, a way of seeking to discover how we might work and live together in more peaceful ways. Jim Wallis’ book continues to inspire me as I read it. These kinds of creative ways of learning to live together are even more germane in the light of tragedies like the Boston Marathon bombing or the discovery of the plot to blow up the VIA train. Our first instinct is denial. How can this be? Who would do something like this? That is followed almost immediately by a desire to strike back. We feel fear and anger, and we want to do whatever we need to in order to feel more secure. In the wake of the tragedy in Boston, talk shows and bloggers’ keyboards spewed vengeful words. One comment that caught my attention was “We must catch them alive and make them suffer as much as possible. That will pay them back for what they did.” Peo-
ple like that seem to equate justice with revenge. President Obama and other leaders promised that the responsible individuals or parties would “feel the full weight of justice.” The question in situations like this always is “But what is justice?” The trouble with reacting violently is that violence always begets more violence. Gandhi put it succinctly when he said, “An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.” Paul exhorted the Romans, “Repay no one evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all … Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to God, for it is written, ‘Vengeance is mine, I will repay,’ says the Lord. (Romans 12:17, 19).” When we humans seek vengeance, we perpetuate and intensify the cycle of violence. But what does it mean to repay evil with good? It certainly does not mean to let the marathon bombing suspect currently in
Yme Woensdregt custody go free, with no accountability for his actions. How can we break the cycle of violence? Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King followed in the footsteps of Gandhi in his embrace of non– violent resistance. He reminded us that “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” We are only beginning to understand the power of love in response to hate. Gandhi entitled his autobiography “The Story of My Experiments with Truth” because he believed in experimenting with the power of love. He likened the power of love to the early days of electricity, when inven-
tors were only just beginning to discover the potential of its power. Bold experimentation was needed to explore what was possible. In the same way, he explained, the human race is in the early days of exploring the power of love. We need bold experimentation to see what is possible, to see how love can drive out hate. One courageous experimenter, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, led the Truth and Reconciliation Commission in South Africa after apartheid ended. While many had predicted a bloodbath at the end of apartheid, Tutu imagined a space for people to share the hurt they had experienced and the hurt they had inflicted, and to be met with forgiveness and love. The road was long. Tutu met much resistance along the way. But he persevered and the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s work over the course of 18 months transformed much bitterness and hatred into understanding and forgiveness. The blood-

bath was averted and South Africa moved into the post–apartheid era with a strong foundation. In ways similar to Tutu’s work with the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, other countries have experimented with restorative justice. Cranbrook is involved in this movement, and it works wonders as victims and perpetrators are reconciled through a process of conversation and understand-
ing and restoration. Gandhi reminded us that love and non–violence is not simply a passive acceptance. Rather, “nonviolence is an active force of the highest order.” It seeks to reach out across the chasm that divides, to bridge it. What would it be like if, instead of responding to violence with vengeance, we imagined ways for love to drive out hate? Seeking to lead with love doesn’t mean having
all the answers. It means living the Gospel imaginatively. What if we, like Gandhi, Tutu, and King, banded together with others to experiment with the power of love? May we commit ourselves to breaking the cycle of violence, to channeling our imaginations and our energy to find a new way. The Gospel requires nothing less.

With Wilby at the Wheel Continued from page 7 The travellers stayed overnight at the Cranbrook Hotel and attended a ceremony in front of City Hall at noon the next day. Mr. DeVere Hunt — speaking on behalf of Mayor Bowness who was suffering from a sore throat — called it a “red-letter day” for Cranbrook. Mr. Wilby, in reply, stated he could not say much as his heart was full of the splendid reception he had received since entering B.C., especially in Cranbrook. Shortly thereafter the REO left town amidst cheers from the large crowd, headed for Yahk, and on to the Pacific. Mr. Wilby speaks of Cranbrook in his book published in 1914: “Superb trails and roads led into the town, the pilot car dashing off at a clip which would have brought disaster on anything but a firstclass surface. The town itself received us with open-handed hospitality. Cranbrookites are never tired of telling strangers of the wonderful valley which will soon be open to motor tourists by the construction of a scenic road from Cranbrook to Banff. Cranbrook was interesting but at first sight there was not much to see. It seemed to be about the size of a man’s pocket-handkerchief, a mere village in dimensions. A hotel ... a railroad station, a modest town hall, a few more or less sleepy stores, a formless back
“Cranbrook is the home of the selfmade man. Culture and refinement are not ordinarily the weapons with which Nature hews out the wilderness.” Thomas Wilby
street or two, a chaotic pavement and a YMCA building ... that was all. “But Cranbrook had hidden riches. Like many another town of the West, it had men who had interpreted education in the terms of opportunity and progress and communal welfare, who were using it as an instrument which would solve for them the problem of a social life free from the trammels of tradition. It had no wastrels, no drones, no men of leisure. No one was hurrying, but neither was any one wast-
ing strength or capital, foresight or initiative. Cranbrook is the home of the self-made man. Culture and refinement are not ordinarily the weapons with which Nature hews out the wilderness.” Ouch! Though often marvelling at the scenery throughout the journey, the author’s humour betrays a certain arrogance concerning the people and places along the route. Undoubtedly many who cheered him on only to later read of themselves and their town cast in the author’s condescending light might have preferred that Mr. Wilby, when he reached the Pacific Ocean in October, 1912, continued driving. As for crossing the Great Divide, Messrs Wilby and Haney were not the first. The first recorded automobile to travel the Crows Nest Pass (the first pass in the Rockies capable of being traversed by an automobile) occurred in September, 1910, when Cranbrook resident Dr. F.W. Green and companions, Messrs Beattie, Staples and Supple, travelled to Coleman and points east. For an entertaining look at the relationship between Wilby and Haney, see “Kootenay Tales — Historical Glimpses of the Past” published in 2008 by local author Arlene Pervin.

Tonight: Easy works. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Your imagination often fills in the gaps regarding plans. If they are based in reality, success generally will follow. Try to avoid projecting your creative energy onto a potential relationship. If you value the potential tie, let it develop naturally. Tonight: Look out, world. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might want to head in a different direction from your friends or loved ones for few hours. Just explain your reasoning, and you’ll discover that others can be very understanding. Share more of what you want in the future. Tonight: Happily head home. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) How you see a personal matter could change radically. More and more, you will toss aside your well-developed self-discipline in exchange for more spontaneity. As a result, you
will see the benefits of being a little less controlling. Tonight: Go overboard and love it. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) While others ponder their plans, it appears as if you are playing out your life the way you want it to be. No one is likely to burst your bubble, as people will want to experience some of your spontaneous joyfulness. A loved one might want your attention. Tonight: And the party goes on. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You correctly sense that something better is ahead. Cruise through your errands, and don’t forget to clean up your workspace. When you free yourself up, you will be happy that you went through this process. Tuck away the thought of responsibilities. Tonight: Invite friends along.

Rhymes with Orange
By Hillary B. Price
Annie’s Mailbox by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My husband and I have a blended family with his two girls and my three sons. I am so grateful that we both took on this challenge. We had some good times, and we had some bad times, and when I say bad, I mean horrible. Our children are all adults now, and we are still butting heads over them, mostly my boys. He has given up on two of my sons because he says they don’t respect him, not to mention some less than legal activity they decided to embark on in our home while we were on vacation. But, Annie, I feel as if he has never really cared for them. I try to help them with rides or letting them wash clothes at our house or whatever I can do. People mature at different levels, and maybe I help too much, but they are my kids. At what point am I supposed to turn my back on them? My husband says that because I help them against his wishes, it means I love them more than him. That isn’t true. One son is homeless and has to look for a place to stay every night. That breaks my heart. My husband found him downstairs sleeping one morning and told me that I’d better get him out or he would call the police. He won’t even allow me to let my son shower here. I realize the boys need to make it on their own, but am I supposed to turn my back on them when they need help? At what point do you give up on your kids and choose your husband instead? I feel like such a horrible mom. -- Worried for Them Dear Worried: Your husband should not be issuing ultimatums wherein you must choose between the man you love and the children you love. This is unfair and creates tremendous resentment. Your husband may have good cause to want the kids out of the house, but it’s difficult to do when they have no place to go. How old are they? Do they have jobs? Would you temporarily assist with their rent if it got them out of the house? Are there substance-abuse issues that need treatment? Try Because I Love You (bily. org), and ask your husband to work with you on this. Dear Annie: I am one of five siblings. My brother was married last fall in a small ceremony that was put together quickly so my mother could be there before she died. He is having a celebration of his marriage later this summer, and the party is being held in another state on the day before my wedding anniversary. My brother’s party would require travel, hotel and meals. My husband and I have already booked (and paid for) a nonrefundable weekend getaway and made arrangements with his parents to watch our kids. We did this three months before my brother sent out his save-the-date cards. How do I break the news to my brother? I should add that I am rarely included in anything the rest of the family does, and I worry that if I miss this event, I will never be included in anything again. -- Little Sis Dear Sis: Call your brother and let him know you have a conflict. Tell him you are heartbroken to miss his party and wish you could find a way out of your nonrefundable reservations, but it’s not possible. Then send him a lovely wedding gift to make up for your absence. These things happen. There’s nothing more you can do. Dear Annie: This is for “N.N.,” whose husband is depressed. Please tell her to have him tested for celiac disease. Depression is one of the symptoms. My husband was depressed for a long period of time and even threatened to take his life. We were finally able to determine that he had celiac disease. Doctors are not that familiar with the symptoms. -- Betty Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Trail students need no urginâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; to help transplant baby sturgeon Art Harrison Trail Times
TRAIL, B.C. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; There was a lot of wriggling going on along the banks of the Columbia River through Trail, B.C., this week â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and that was just the sturgeon. The kids were pretty excited, too. More than 700 Trail-area students helped release some of the 4,000 hatchery-raised juvenile sturgeon into the river near Beaver Creek as part of the annual Upper Columbia White Sturgeon Recovery Initiative (UCWSRI). Although some of the children were a little squeamish about handling the wriggling live fish, others were thrilled with the opportunity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The first one was awesome,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; said seven-year-old, Grade 2 student, Meghan Hancock. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Touching one... wow!â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; The Recovery Initiative has been studying the dwindling numbers of wild sturgeon in the Columbia since 2000 and has been releasing hatchery-raised fish into the water-
way since 2002. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The main reason we have to do this release is because of what is referred to as a failure to recruit by the sturgeon,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; said UCWRSI official, Gerry Nellestijn. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We know theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re breeding, we know the eggs are hatching, but theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not making it to the juvenile stage. Without the conservative aquaculture program there would be no survival of sturgeon in the Columbia River.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; According to Nellestijn the lack of wild juvenile sturgeon means that, at present, all the naturally occurring sturgeon in the Upper Columbia are at least 50 years-old. He says adding the hatchery fish ensures a variable age range of the stock. Each fish is implanted with a tag so they can be tracked electronically as they swim by monitoring stations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sturgeon can live 100 years so this is definitely a time-willtell program,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; said Nellestijn. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Males donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mature until theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re 15 years-old and fe-

What we have embarked on is an aquaculture program that will take two decades to determine if we can provide successful breeders into the system.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Because the sturgeon are so long-lived Nellestijn says that the program requires a long term commitment from the
public. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With these tags these kids will be able to track these fish for the rest of their lives,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; said Nellestijn. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of the reasons we think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so important to involve the kids in this program. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re almost junior biologists, we need them as ambassadors.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122;
Revelstoke unveils plan for backyard chickens Aaron Orl ando Revelstoke Times Review
The City of Revelstokeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new livestock policy made its public debut at an April 25 planning committee meeting, starting a public consultation process that will likely happen in the next several weeks. The proposed policy outlines where chickens, bees and other livestock will be allowed in Revelstoke, and what rules those who keep the animals must follow. Chickens will be permitted in most zones in Revelstoke, except for the downtown core and some denser neighbourhoods. Some basics apply. Female birds only. A coop must be supplied for the birds. Bear aware mitigation measures must be taken, although the draft policy doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say what that means. Although chickens are proposed to be allowed on most properties, a rule dictating they not be allowed within five metres of a property line effectively eliminates many residences. North Columbia Environmental Society (NCES) president Sarah Newton is happy the city is moving forward with formally allowing backyard chickens, noting local food production is a high priority in terms of climate change adaption and mitigation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re pleased that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re taking it
seriously,â&#x20AC;? she said. However, Newton said the NCES had extensive consultations with the city and stakeholders such as Revelstoke Bear Aware, including providing the planning department with comprehensive documentation and examples from other communities like Vernon and Vancouver. She said she is â&#x20AC;&#x153;disappointedâ&#x20AC;? the current policy lacks these details, something sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to see included. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would like [the livestock policy] to go to the environmental advisory committee,â&#x20AC;? Newton said. It was her understanding the policy was still up for other internal stakeholder review, and was surprised to hear it was heading for public review already. Newton said the NCES would likely take issue with the five-metre rule because it effectively shuts out many homes on smaller lots. The policy restricts beekeeping to larger rural properties outside of the downtown core. Beekeeping is permitted on only a few larger properties. Rules dictate how the hive must be kept and also provide for â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;flyway barriersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a tall fence that forces bees to fly upwards. Hive locations must be coordinated with the Bear Aware coordinator. Ron Glave is a member of the Revelstoke Beekeeping
Revelstoke will soon allow its residents to keep chickens. Facebook page and a novice beekeeper. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very appropriate that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s criteria for whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s acceptable and appropriate,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It gives some good guidelines to work with. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing in there thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really glaring that seems unfair or unreasonable.â&#x20AC;? Pigs arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t allowed, but goats, sheep, horses, cows, alpacas, llamas and donkeys are. Rules specify how many of each are allowed â&#x20AC;&#x201C; such as up to four sheep but only one cow. The map showing where theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re allowed is the most restrictive â&#x20AC;&#x201C; only a few scattered rural properties in outlying neighbourhoods. There are several other re-
strictions, such as on cleanliness, feeding and distance to the property line. Effectively, hoofed animals would be allowed on a select few properties. Revelstoke Bear Aware coordinator Sue Davies said the organization would like to see several more rules and requirements added. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to see provisions for a club or registry for beekeepers and those raising chickens. The idea is to raise standards and education about proper techniques, especially ones that would prevent attracting bears. She notes beehives, chickens and chicken feed are all bear attractants.

First southern US state abolishes death penalty Brian Wit te Associated Press
ANNAPOLIS, Md. — Maryland has become the first southern U.S. state to abolish the death penalty. Democratic Gov. Martin O’Malley signed the measure Thursday. Attending was former Maryland death row inmate Kirk Bloodsworth. He is the first person in the country freed because of DNA evidence after being convicted in a death penalty case. Maryland is the 18th state to abolish the death penalty and the sixth state in as many years to do so. The bill will not apply to the five men the state has on death row, but the governor can commute their sentences to life without parole. O’Malley has said he will consider
them on a case-by-case basis. The state’s last execution was in 2005. Supporters of capital punishment said the governor was taking away an important tool to protect the public. Neil Parrott, chairman of a group called MDPetitions.com, scheduled a news conference on Friday to announce the group’s decision on whether to launch a petition drive to try to put the death penalty ban on the ballot for voters to decide in 2014. Last year, the Death Penalty Information Center said just four states carried out more than threefourths of the executions in the United States last year, while another 23 had not put an inmate to death in 10 years. Ben Jealous, president and CEO
of the civil rights group National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, noted the significance of a southern Democratic governor with presidential aspirations leading an effort to ban capital punishment. Jealous noted that in 1992, then-Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton left the presidential campaign trail to oversee the execution of a man who had killed a police officer, a move widely viewed as an effort to shed the Democratic Party’s image as soft on crime. O’Malley considering seeking the 2016 presidential nomination. “Our governor has also just redefined what it means to have a political future in this country,’’ Jealous said.

Use seabirds to monitor chemical contamination of oceans: scientist Bob Weber Canadian Press
A father-and-son team of biologists say flocks of environmental monitors are the best way to keep track of the increasing chemical contamination of the world’s oceans. But these monitors aren’t lab-coated scientists — they’re seabirds, whose wide-ranging flights make them a cheap and effective way to gather information over vast stretches of ocean that would be prohibitively costly to visit. “In an afternoon at a seabird colony, for a hundred dollars in gas, you can get information that would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars and lots of time by boat,’’ said Kyle Elliott of the University of Manitoba. Elliott co-wrote a paper that appeared Thursday in the journal Science with his father John, an Environment Canada
AP Photo/Wayne Parry
A shorebird skitters across the sand in Point Pleasant, N.J. scientist. They argue that seabirds are made-to-order lab assistants, as they pick up traces of whatever’s in the local environments they fly over in their wide-ranging migrations. “If you get a bird that winters off the coast of Mexico and you have a feather that was grown during that period, you have information about what’s going on in Mexico,’’ Elliott
said. Some seabirds feed over the open ocean, some along the continental shelf and some in close to land. Each, through its tissues and eggs, opens a window into what’s happening in that environment. By comparing modern samples to samples kept in storage and in museums, birds can also illuminate how things have changed, said Elliott.
Many countries, including Canada, already conduct bird-sampling studies. It was through bird samples that scientists confirmed increases in contaminants such as mercury. But Elliott says new technology, such as tiny, solar-powered GPS units transmitting data to satellites, has made such research even more useful. Better techniques allow scientists to wring more information from their samples, including the geographic source of contaminants. As well, the need is increasing as the chemical and contaminant load in the oceans increases. Even banned chemicals continue circulating in the environment for decades, eventually migrating into the oceans. Hundreds of different types of plastics are regularly found in seabird stomachs.

Saudi Arabia reports seven new cases of SARS-like virus Associated Press
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia — Saudi Arabia’s Health Ministry said Thursday that five people have died and two other patients were in critical condition with confirmed cases of a new respiratory virus related to SARS. The ministry said in a statement that it had informed the World Health Organization of the seven new cases of novel coronavirus. The germ is from a family of viruses that cause the common cold, as well as SARS — the severe acute respiratory syndrome that killed some 800 people, mostly in Asia, in a 2003 epidemic. Health experts still aren’t sure how humans are being infected. The new coronavirus, which can cause acute pneumonia and kidney failure, is most closely related to a bat virus and scientists are considering whether bats or other animals like goats or camels are
a possible source of infection. Since September 2012, WHO has been informed of 24 confirmed cases. Sixteen of the patients died. The new virus was first identified last year in the Middle East and several of the people infected had all travelled to Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Jordan or Pakistan. WHO says the virus is probably more widespread than just the Middle East and has advised countries to test any people with unexplained pneumonia. In Saudi Arabia last year, four members of the same family fell ill and two died. The Saudi government is conducting an ongoing investigation into the outbreak. The seven people who contracted the virus are not from the same family and there is no indication that any of them were in contact with animals or had travelled recently.
