Hot topic of debate

he burning question that still remains unanswered in the wake of the City Hall fire Thursday, Sept. 19 morning is why. Why was the fire set? Such a targeted strike against the highest form of local government in the city does point towards something more severe than a disgruntled flare up over unpaid property taxes. It speaks of deeper civic unrest and displeasure than troubles most citizens who bemoan the wisdom (or lack thereof) of municipal government. But, at this point, the motive of the alleged arsonist is not known, and likely won’t be for some time as the case plods through the over-taxed court system in B.C. However, the due course of justice won’t stop the rumour mill as people in the city will widely wonder what the whim was that prompted someone to set the fire. As the months unfold until the real reason comes out, it might behoove city council to release a statement on the matter, to help quell the rumours that are likely to spill forth. You can’t fight city hall, the old saying goes, but, apparently, you can burn it.

Pop goes the culture CRAIG lINdSAY

t looks as if another summer has come and gone as this cold weather can attest. There are many who may dislike September. It reminds them of the upcoming winter and gloom and darkness. But I, and many others, enjoy this shoulder season for many various reasons. One is that hockey and basketball are just around the corner—and that’s exciting. The Canucks haven’t yet had their season come to a disappointing conclusion. More than that, fall sees the

return of most TV shows, great music and video games. The season ending of Breaking Bad is, of course, the big draw, but other shows such as Walking Dead, Simpsons, Family Guy, Survivor and many more are set to return. As for video games, Grant Theft Auto 5 has just been released on consoles. In Grand Forks, the Source had line-ups out the door for the popular open-world game. But let’s not forget summer too soon. In those long, hot days, people long for movies and music they can just sit back and soak in without much thought. To that note, here are my top 10 songs from the summer in no particular order.

Feel This Moment by Pitbull with Christina Aguilera is a perfect summer ditty with a catchy chorus from Aguilera and Pitbull’s cheesy but easy to take lyrics. It even includes a sample from the great 1980s tune, Take On Me. I Love It by Icona Pop make car crashes seem not so bad as the ladies sang about lovin’. No list of top summer songs would be complete without Robin Thicke’s Blurred Lines, which ruled charts all summer long. And no mention of Robin Thicke would be complete without mentioning his dad, Alan Thicke. That’s right—the dad from Growing Pains. What would Mike Seaver say?

As far as rock songs go, Imagine Dragons did well with Radioactive. Lady rocker Lorde had a big catchy hit with Royals, a song about dreaming about a better life. I’m not sure if Florida Georgia Line’s Cruise, featuring Nelly, is rap or country or pop or rock, but it sure does evoke the feeling of driving down main street with the top rolled down in the middle of summer. Well, that’s all for now. Will any of those summer songs be remembered a few months from now? Who knows. Craig Lindsay is a reporter with the Grand Forks Gazette. His music career was tragically cut short by a rollover in a Grand Theft Auto 2 accident.

Letters

to the editor

Help sought to end political corruption To the Editor, I’m sure you are all aware of the Senate scandal regarding theft of taxpayers’ money by certain Senate members. This is not only a breach of trust on the part of these senators, but outright theft, from you and me.

A Conservative MP from New Brunswick, John Williamson, has introduced a private members Bill C-158 to assure crooked politicians are denied their generous taxpayer-funded pension if convicted of theft or breach of trust. I believe this bill is worthy

Park people applauded To the Editor, Thanks to all the people involved in making the multiuse field at City Park a reality this summer. There have already been numerous activities there so far this fall, including some Boundary youth soccer games, as well as a small Olympic style rugby tournament. Big thanks to the following people or businesses for their monetary sponsorship: City of Grand Forks; Community Futures; the Wanderers Rugby Club; and Roly Russell and the regional district board of directors. Plus, a personal thank you to the following for their input of time on this project: Len at Eagle Mountain Custom Works; Clint Faulkner; Tim Carson; Kristy Kuromi; plus Hal and James with the city who have been very supportive of this project. This new sport venue has so much to offer and is a great showcase for our town. Way to go everyone. Play on. Keith Kuromi, Wanderers Rugby Club

of support by all of us. Please let John know you support his initiative at John.williamson@ parl.gc.ca. Help end this political corruption. David Janzen, Grand Forks

No stomach for water meters To the Editor, Why does it feel like we have been handed a death sentence by hanging and the noose is around our necks because (council) has chosen to install water meters. The days of being a prison planet are done, so is your lousy way of admonishing pain and suffering. We pay enough for water so lay off. We know who you are and you will never be happy with yourselves if you do this dreadful thing. Nadine Nevocshonoff, Grand Forks

Thumbs down to solar bird burglars Thumbs down to people who do not stop at the stop signs on 72nd Avenue and Cypress Way and continue to speed down this road. Thumbs down to the people who sit in the chairs in front of some businesses on Second Street with their feet stuck out into the middle of the sidewalk, and their dogs are also in the way. It’s hard to navigate past them because you can’t see through all the cigarette smoke. Thumbs up to Rilkoff’s store for the flowers around their produce fields. It makes me smile. Thumbs up to the Grand Forks Curling Club for organizing a paper shredding event for local businesses and individuals. Thumbs up to the Sunshine Quilter’s Guild for their amazing quilt show. The tea room and desserts were beyond expectations. Thumbs up to all the people who helped to set up and take down the Sunshine Quilter’s Quilt Show. Special thank you to all the men who helped with the “heavy stuff.” Thumbs up for the dogs leading their handlers on the annual Terry Fox Run. See you next year. What a pity that there were only 35 participants in this annual event; however it was assisted by 10 dogs. It is an ideal opportunity for

families to get together and take some exercise—two kilometre or eight km. of walk, cycle, run—and discuss the importance of community spirit. Then we can all remember that it is a central charity into cancer research. Just as Labour Day is at the beginning of September, Terry Fox’s day is in mid-September. Let’s aim for a bigger activity in 2014. Thumbs down to the person who hit and killed my cat on Hardy Mountain Road. Thank you for taking a member of our family away from us. And to ALL the people who speed up this road, slow down. A huge thank you to Brian at Overwaitea for his innovative way of helping others in need. You are an asset to both Overwaitea and our community. Thumbs down to the person that stole my solar bird lights from my yard. Would you like to give a thumb up or a thumb down? Email editor@grandforksgazette.ca with Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down as a subject line. We could publish your anonymous submission. Attacks on specific businesses and people will not be published. Editor’s discretion will always be exercised. Please keep it tasteful.

We’re travelling a historical route Royal engineer Edgar Dewdney broke trail for modern travel for Interior residents to the coast

ot everyone who drives on Highway 3 to the Lower Mainland will rousing the know that they are driving the rabble route laid out by Edgar Dewdney, ROy RONaghaN a Royal Engineer. To make the trip in the mid19th Century would have taken weeks on a narrow trail rather than six to eight hours on a paved highway. Interior residents who drive on the Crowsnest Highway (Highway 3) are following the same route as the miners and the early settlers. Approximately 80 per cent of the former trail has been incorporated into the highway. A section running from Cascade at Christina Lake to Rossland was omitted for reasons unknown. Modern engineers chose to build on the trail laid out by Royal Engineers because there is no better low altitude route across four mountain ranges: the Cascade; Monashees; Selkirks; and Purcells. The trail was built with some dispatch in the 1860s. British Columbia had not yet entered the confederation and gold finds in the area just across the border from Washington Territory, now Washington State were attracting hordes of men. To protect British interests, governor James Douglas determined that a trail should be built to the interior from the coast. The Royal Engineers surveyed the route in 1860 from Fort Hope to Vermilion Forks (Princeton), a distance of 120 kilometres (75 miles). The same Royal engineers surveyed and built the Cariboo wagon road to Barkerville. Edgar Dewdney, an engineer from Devonshire, England, and Walter Moberly were contracted to build the first section. Dewdney also got the contract for the second section and completed the construction in 1865. He was 28 years old at the time and did the job for $75,000. The trail was built adjacent to the border in Southern British Columbia and eventually linked Hope (Port Hope) on the west with Fort Steele, now a Heritage site near Cranbrook, on the east. The construction was done in two stages: Hope to Princeton (Vermilion Forks) and Princeton to Fort Steele. Dewdney had to construct the trail to specifications. It had to be 1.3 metres (four feet) wide, clear of trees and boulders and all wet sections had to be made passable. The centre of the trail was to be hard packed and smooth and where it ran along a slope or rough terrain, it had to be wide enough to accommodate animals and people safely. Bridges over rivers and creeks had to be four metres (12 feet) wide. It is hard to imagine a trail being built at a low cost in today’s terms, but reports say that Dewdney got $75,000 for the longest section from Princeton to Fort Steele, some 480 km. (300 miles). Of interest to Highway 3 travelers, Rock Creek once had a population of 5,000. Princeton was first named Prince Town after the Prince of Wales. Bridesville was first named Maud but eventually given the name after David Bride, a landowner in the area. Hedley, a boomtown in the 1900s was named after Robert F. Hedley, owner of the Hall Smelter in Nelson. Ore from the Nickel Plate Mine ran out in 1955 and most of the people left the town although reports now say there are 300 residents. The next time you drive from Grand Forks to the coast think about what it must have been like in the 1800s and 1900s following Dewdney’s trail, now a paved road with large sections that have been widened to accommodate four lanes that connects Boundary Country with the coast. Complain about the hills and hairpin turns as the highway makes its way from Princeton to hope but in the end, thank Dewdney and his crews for their vision and good work.

Congratulations!

Cameron & Tanya Walt Saturday, Sept 7th started with a potential hint of sun, yet the ominous clouds determined the inevitable. Friends and family arriving and running for the make shift shelter. A beautiful sight of loved ones gathering, drenched and cold, yet they waited in anticipation for the reason for their presence. An undaunting, beautiful bride rides up in a horse drawn buggy. All was silent, a moment of shear visual pleasure, even the rain faded from our sight. Music, a beautiful entourage, handsomely dressed men, vows, rings and a kiss. Everything led to this moment. As if the rain and thunder was their personal band, right on cue, the storm passes, as if to reassure the newlyweds, “This too shall pass....” A new beginning. Thank you to the wedding party, family, friends and especially those who contributed with their love and tireless work that made this celebration a success. A special thank you to all the guests who assisted in keeping us dry.

However, before investigators were able to enter the building, a structural engineer had to check out the building, and found it to be sound. In March of 2012 the 102-year-old Grand Forks Hotel was completely destroyed and part of the Winnipeg Hotel was also damaged. The fire Grand Forks Fire Rescue responded to the call at approximately 5:30 a.m. and found the main floor of City Hall engulfed in flames. “When I got here, about four minutes after the initial call, fire was visible through the front door,” said Kevin McKinnon, deputy fire chief. “It was mainly contained to the front part of the building.” The fire department had its first truck on scene about two minutes after McKinnon arrived and had a crew putting water on the fire immediately. The fire was contained to the front lobby of the area. McKinnon said he did not think there was much water damage in the basement where many historical documents were kept. “There’s a bit of water down there, but our guys were pretty sparse with their use of water,” he said. “The fire did not spread there.” Once the authorities have completed their investigation of the building, city staff will be able to access the building and determine what, if any, damage there has been to the archives. “We are all saddened by the damage to this iconic 103-year-old building. It’s a big part of our community’s history,” said Grand Forks Mayor Brian Taylor. Business not as usual As a result of the fire, City Hall

City staff are making plans for setting up temporary operations from the Public Works office at 130 Industrial Dr. He said it would be several months to get the City Hall building back at full shape. The mayor also stressed the city would prefer to use local contractors as much as possible. “Right now, the public works yard gives us some capacity to work out of, but that’s not going to be sufficient over time.” The temporary City Hall has access to remote online databases. Other systems for residential and business services such as utility bill payments will be set up over the coming weeks as well. City staff are available to handle inquiries in person at the new, temporary “City Hall.” The phone lines have been rerouted and people can reach city staff at the same phone number: 250-442-8266.

As well, the agreement recognizes the professional role of education assistants through formal changes to the School Act and collective agreements.” The agreement provides a one per cent wage increase retroactive to July 1, 2013, two per cent of Feb. 1, 2014, and 0.5 per cent on May 1, 2014. “CUPE BC’s 27,000 education workers are vital to keeping our schools clean, safe and inclusive,” said CUPE BC president Mark Hancock.

IN BRIEF Open fires allowed in Southeast The open burning prohibition in the Southeast Fire Centre—which includes the area around Grand Forks—will be rescinded, due to a decreased risk of wildfires. Although open fires will be permitted throughout the Southeast Fire Centre, the Wildfire Management Branch is asking people to remain vigilant with any fire use, including open burning and campfires. Despite the recent cool and wet weather, the region’s fire danger rating could increase again. Homeowners and industry personnel are encouraged to take the following precautions with any outdoor burning activities: • Ensure that enough people, water and tools are on hand to control the fire and to prevent it from escaping. • Do not burn in windy conditions. The weather can change quickly and the wind may carry embers to other combustible material and start new fires. There have been 320 wildfires in the Southeast Fire Centre so far this season. Of those, 46 were caused by people.

UBCM asks for GE ban

The Union of BC Municipalities (UBCM) passed a resolution “that UBCM ask the B.C. government to legislate the prohibition of importing, exporting and growing plants and seeds containing genetically engineered DNA, and raising GE animals within B.C., and to declare, through legislation, that B.C. is a GE-free area in respect to all plant and animal species.” Already 14 municipalities in BC have declared themselves GE Free Zones, and 10 official community plans of regional districts have come out against GE crops, as communities across the province mobilized for a ban on GE crops. Supporters of the UBCM motion gathered almost 7,000 signatures on online and hardcopy petitions, and protested yesterday morning outside the UBCM meeting location.

MAAP begins to take shape

CRAIG LINDSAY

Grand Forks Gazette

The city’s new multi-agency accommodation project building is set to open in sections over the next couple of months. Called MAAP, the building will house Boundary Emergency and Transition Housing Society (BETHS), Habitat for Humanity Boundary (HFHB) and Whispers of Hope Benevolence Association under one roof. The MAAP facility will provide shelter, meals, clothing and other thrift store items and transition housing units intended to meet the needs of individuals and families in the Boundary region who are homeless, hungry or unable to obtain decent safe and affordable housing. The facility will also provide office space for the three organizations and a Habitat for Hu-

manity ReStore, which will sell used building materials. Profits from the ReStore will be used for administrative and program costs. “We are hoping to have the Whispers of Hope and their thrift store open by the end of September,” said Rick Friesen, executive director for Habitat for Humanity Boundary Society. “We need to have the extreme weather shelter open by Nov. 1. Once we have the renovations done, we’ll start on the ReStore.” Friesen, who is also a director for BETHS, said that group, which operates the cold weather shelter, has received approval for their budget from BC Housing. “We have restructured our staffing and volunteer people so we will be able to operate,” he said.

The shelter operates in the winter when it’s cold and wet, or when temperatures dip below freezing, said Friesen, and will close around April. Friesen said the shelter was used a total of 249 times last year. “We feel with the new location that the use will increase as well,” he said. In addition to the thrift store, Whispers of Hope will also be running their soup kitchen out of the new building. “They feed up to 50 people a day, Monday to Friday, all year round,” said Friesen. Habitat for Humanity Boundary continues to be busy with plans to start construction on three homes in Grand Forks in 2014. HFHB already has 14 completed homes in the Boundary including 12 in Grand Forks and two in Greenwood.

After a brief session to table a pre-election budget in February, the government adjourned in March to begin the campaign, then recalled the legislature in July to debate the budget and ministry spending estimates.

The climate is changing. Warmer temperatures, rising oceans and shrinking glaciers are on the top of people’s minds, but how will climate change affect our communities in the Boundary, and what can we do to adapt? On the evening of Sept. 26 in Christina Lake, the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) will be hosting a provocative and proactive discussion, “Flood, Fire and Famine: Forum on Building Resilience to Global Climate Change in the Boundary.” “Climate change impacts will likely be severe in the Boundary and across southern B.C.,” said Graham Watt, coordinator of the Kettle River Watershed Management Plan for the RDKB. “Most of our forests could turn to grass and scrub in our lifetimes or our children’s lifetimes, and longer growing seasons combined with less available water will stress water supplies and aquatic ecosystems over the coming decades.” The forum will be hosted by Grace McGregor, chair of the Kettle River stakeholder advisory committee and RDKB Area C director.

will share information on climate change impacts in the Boundary, and lead group discussions about how to build regional resilience to climate change. “We know that this is an issue that will affect the whole world as well as every corner of the Boundary,” said McGregor. “How can we work together to develop regional solutions to these challenges?” “We look forward to seeing what kinds of ideas and initiatives participants want to discuss—everything from water conservation to tourism development to ecosystem restoration will be on the table,” said Watt. “What we’ll need is new understanding, and new energy, to develop the relationships and capacity to implement the solutions discussed at the forum.” The regional district is inviting people from multiple sectors, including public works staff, members of business, industrial, forestry, stewardship and tourism organizations, and First Nations.

Teck takes top tip of hat Teck Metals Ltd. is the recipient of the 2012 British Columbia Jake McDonald Mine Reclamation Award for outstanding reclamation achievements at the Pinchi Mine, which produced mercury from 1940 to 1944 and from 1968 to 1978. “We are pleased to recognize Teck Metals Ltd. for its proactive and meaningful engagement with First Nations as well as its diligent and conscientious efforts to plan and implement closure activities,” said Ryan Todd, incoming chair of the British Columbia Technical and Research Committee on Reclamation (TRCR).

A COUNCIL BY THE STUDENTS FOR THE STUDENTS

Volume Four, Number Two

This Week in Sports

“We encourage everyone to come out and support our school athletes!”

TYRA REXIN

GFSS Student Council sports their 70’s look at the first “theme” dance of the year. The dance was organized to welcome the exchange students from Magog Quebec. ELENA PLOTNIKOFF This year the students of GFSS were welcomed back to a decorated school brimming with school spirit and the promise of a dance in the coming week. Who was responsible for this enthusiastic environment? GFSS’s Student Council! We sat down and talked with student council leader, Jaclyn Salter about their upcoming plans for the year...

GFSS students usually can’t look forward to a dance until later in the fall ... how was this one put together so quickly? JS: A lot of online organization. Was it a success? JS: It was! Everyone enjoyed themselves and there was higher attendance than previous dances. Are there any changes in the structure of student council compared to previous years? JS: We are working in groups as opposed to an executive council. It gives everyone a chance to get involved. It encourages mentoring between the older students and the younger ones. What other events does student council have planned for the year? JS: At least two more dances, a winter fun day, a talent show, and the Over the Top event taking place on September 26th.

“students here at GFSS were hearing French in the halls all week”

SIMONE GENTRY

Twenty two Quebec students arrived in Grand Forks last Saturday, Sept 7th. They stayed here for a week as part of GFSS’s SEVEC exchange program. Our own exchange students will be going to stay with the Quebec students and attending classes and activities in their hometown of Magog. While here, the Quebec students got to try authentic Russian borscht, went hiking and swimming, they saw a bruin’s game, and had a barn dance. They also attended a day of classes with their GFSS “twins”. Many of the Quebec students were friends before their trip here; there boys even play

on a hockey team! The students are from Magog, Quebec, about an hour and a half outside of Montreal. Being near Ottawa means more English influence in their lives and an impressively fluent control of the English language. Despite good command of the language, the Quebec students still preferred to speak in their own tongue. Students here at GFSS were hearing French in the halls all week. Having exchange students here is always hectic for any teacher involved. They have to coordinate activities and classes for the exchange students as well as teaching their regular classes.

The GFSS Wolves are now howling into a great season. As practices are now in full gear, plans for upcoming games have begun to be established. The junior girls’ volleyball team would like to begin practicing, yet they are still struggling to find a coach. They have held a team meeting discussing possible coaches and plans for how to approach the season ahead. Junior girls hope to soon begin practices in order to be prepared for possible games and to make up for their late start to the season. Senior girls, grade eight girls, and grade eight boys are continuing to practice hard and will be beginning to play games later on this month. In an unfortunate turn of events the first boys’ soccer game was cancelled, however they will

be eagerly kicking off the season with a tournament in Creston on Friday, September 20th. They will also be attending a tournament in Nakusp the following weekend. Good luck boys! A new triathlon event, “Over the Top” will take place this September at GFSS. Each team must have a swimmer and a bicyclist, as well as a runner. After each of these tasks is completed all team members must climb over the top of a climbing wall in order to finish the race. Teams have now been formed and will be preparing for the event which will take place on Thursday, September 26th. This event will include a barbecue which all members of GFSS are welcome to attend We encourage everyone to come out and support our school athletes!

GFSS assistant grade eight boys volleyball coaches, Shayna Plotnikoff and Larissa McKinlay. Shayna and Larissa also play senior girls volleyball.

he Kettle River is the life-blood of this region,” said a visitor to my table at the Rock Creek Fall Fair. I had the pleasure of many such conversations that weekend, and I am continually reminded by residents and visitors alike of how special our rivers are. It’s important to recognize the value of our rivers, wherever we live, and work towards their stewardship and protection. This weekend, people around the world will be celebrating river stewardship on World Rivers Day. World Rivers Day is held every year on the last Sunday in September. Mark Angelo and the Outdoor Recreation Council of BC created the event as BC Rivers Day in 1980 to help recognize and celebrate waterways across the province. Today, in celebrations from Burnaby to Iraq to Malaysia, millions of people in 60 countries will float, paddle, tour, clean up, and dance about the value of rivers in our lives.

z Kettle River Q and A GRAHAM WATT

In B.C., the Outdoor Recreation Council says that over 75,000 people participate in more than more than 100 events each year—Canada’s largest river appreciation event. In Grand Forks, various organizations have led river clean-ups over the years, hauling out garbage large and small. “The craziest thing we ever hauled out was a 600-pound waterlogged couch just below the black train bridge,” said Lawrence Radford of Kingfisher Fly and Tackle. “It took eight guys and a winch to get it to shore—it’s ridiculous that someone could dump garbage like that in the river that we depend on for fishing, swimming and drinking.”

This Sunday, Sept. 29, join the Granby Wilderness Society for a cleanup on the shorelines of the Kettle and Granby Rivers. Volunteers will meet at 10 a.m. at City Park (at the parking lot near the playground) to get garbage bags and gloves, and pick the time for meeting at the landfill. “The Regional District of Kootenay Boundary will waive tipping fees for the clean-up crews,” said Jenny Coleshill of the Granby Wilderness Society, who is leading the event. “It’s a great way to show support for these special places.” More information on World Rivers Day can be found at http://worldriversday.com and BC Rivers Day at http:// www.orcbc.ca/pro_bcriversday.htm Graham Watt is the coordinator of the Kettle River Watershed Management Plan for the RDKB, and is working with a Stakeholder Advisory Group from across the region to develop the plan.

So what does a director do when suffering from the post production blues? Joss Whedon (Avengers, Buffy the Vampire Slayer) took some sage advice from his architect wife, Kai, and pursued a personal ambition of contemporizing Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing. Using the original text, this classic comedy tells the story of sparring lovers Beatrice and Benedick, a dark, sexy and occasionally absurd view of the intricate game that is love. Aided by close friends and collaborators from his hit television shows, Whedon and his wife funded the film which was shot entirely in their Beverly Hills home in just 12 days. Leonato (Clark Gregg), the governor of Messina, is visited by his friend Don Pedro (Reed Diamond) who is returning from a victorious campaign against his rebellious brother Don John (Sean Maher). Accompanying Don Pedro are two of his officers: Benedick (Alexis Denisof) and Claudio (Fran Kranz). While in Messina, Claudio falls for Leonato’s daughter

deanefarms@telus.net

• Acorn lb • Buttercup • Spaghetti Over 30 lb • Heart of Gold • Sunshine lb • Butternut

Hero (Jillian Morgese), while Benedick verbally spars with Beatrice (Amy Acker), the governor’s niece. The budding love between Claudio and Hero prompts Don Pedro to arrange with Leonato for a marriage. In the days leading up to the ceremony, Don Pedro, with the help of Leonato, Claudio and Hero, attempts to sport with Benedick and Beatrice in an effort to trick the two into falling in love. Meanwhile, the villainous Don John, with the help of his allies Conrade (Riki Lindhome) and Borachio (Spencer Treat Clark), plots against the happy couple, using his own form of trickery to try to destroy the marriage before it begins. A series of comic and tragic

events may continue to keep the two couples from truly finding happiness, but then again perhaps love may prevail. Much Ado won the IFF Boston Audience Award for Best Narrative Feature, and Whedon won the 13th Belfast Film Festival Audience Award for the film. If any Shakespeare-phobes feel this just may be another dry, incomprehensible production from a bygone century I beseech thee to partake of a trailer of the flick and you will see the humour and be thus encouraged to attend the film which will be shown at the GEM Theatre Tuesday, Oct. 1 at 7:30 p.m. Thanks to our sponsors and patrons and especially to Maureen and Marius Paquet of the GEM Theatre.

A proliferation of wasps this year has many wondering if they are ... CRAIG LINDSAY

Grand Forks Gazette

Friend or Foe?

f you think it seems like a particularly bad summer for wasps, you could be right. Stingers in tow, the little insects are popping up everywhere, whether at a barbecue or a picnic or just walking around. So what do you do? Swat at the little insects? Ignore them? Or concede and go inside? “I’ve heard it’s been a bad year for wasps,” said Graham Watt, project coordinator for the Kettle River watershed plan. “Personally, I’ve

seen a lot of wasps around in places—there seems to be nests everywhere including my truck, in our RV and everywhere.” Watt said the recent hot, dry weather has been ideal for wasps. Although there is nothing in place to measure wasp populations, through his work with the regional district Watt has heard complaints from across B.C. about the insects. Watt said that wasps eat a number of things from other insects to any form of meat. “They require calories to basically feed the eggs and developing wasps back at the nest,” he said. “The workers, the females, are out there looking for food. Some of the queens build nests around your house; in little nooks and crannies. It usually becomes a problem for us when we step on them or stir up their nests.” Watt adds that it’s usually best not to bother the wasps unless you have to. “The wasps do such important things in the garden by pollinating plants and helping control other insect populations that might be pests,” he said. “Focus on maybe getting rid of the problem nests but allow them their space to do their work—especially if you don’t have allergy concerns.” Wasps do vital work in the insect world. If it was not for wasps—who prey upon nearly every species of insect—the balance of nature would be out.

Feature feediNg

Wasps are parasites and feed only on nectar as adults. Many wasps are predatory, using other insects (often paralyzed) as food for their larvae. In parasitic species, the first meals are almost always derived from the host in which the larvae grow. Some types of social wasps are omnivorous, feeding on a variety of fallen fruit, nectar and carrion. Some of these social wasps scavenge for dead insects to provide for their young. In many social species, the larvae provide sweet secretions that are consumed by adults. Adult male wasps sometimes visit flowers to obtain nectar to feed on in much the same manner as a honeybee.

Continued from following page Wasps are considered a natural bio control, and are increasingly used in agricultural pest control as they prey on pest insects and have little impact on crops. Although there are several sprays and chemicals available to get rid of wasp nests, Watt said there are methods available online that are much better for the environment. “Some people use soap, water and vinegar mixtures to spray them,” he said. “But certainly if you have a problem infestation you should call a professional. You don’t want to be digging around and causing problems for yourself. But for smaller nests, there are definitely safe products out there.” At davidsuzuki.org, the website recommends several methods for deterring wasps: Don’t wear bright colours; don’t wear sweet smells; and cover meat and fish when barbecuing.

Wasps build their nests in a variety of places, often choosing sunny spots. Nests are commonly located in holes underground, along riverbanks or small hillocks, attached to the side of walls, trees or plants, or underneath floors or eaves of houses. Wasp nests are most easily found on sunny days at dawn or dusk as the low light levels make it easier to spot the wasps flying in and out of their nests.

Continued from following page

The vast majority of wasps play no role in pollination, but a few species can transport pollen. Adult parasitic wasps themselves do not take any nutrients from their prey, and, much like bees, butterflies and moths typically derive their nutrition form nectar. Parasitic wasps sometimes paralyze their prey by injecting it with venom through their ovipositor (stinger). They then insert one or more eggs into the host or deposit them upon the host externally. The host remains alive until the parasitoid larvae are mature, usually dying either when the parasitoids pupate, or when they emerge as adults. Social lives Wasps fall into one of two main categories: solitary wasps and social wasps. Solitary wasps live and operate alone and do not construct nests. Social wasps can live in colonies that number up to several thousand insects, but not all wasps in those colonies may be able to reproduce. Source: All information courtesy Wikipedia

As well, don’t leave out sugary drinks like pop; clean up rotting fruit from your fruit trees; cover your compost pile with a lid or lots of “browns” like dry leaves; and keep your trash bin clean. Suzuki also recommends not swatting at a wasp because they can release a pheromone that will attract other wasps and signal them to be aggressive.

PHone or email YOUR LOCAL GAZETTE REP TODAY for pricing or advice on your next printing project

250.442.2191 PRINTING@GRANDFORKSGAZETTE.CA

On Oct. 9 buy the Grand Forks Gazette from a volunteer on the street. The Gazette will be sold outside of the newspaper office at 7330 Second St. and Overwaitea, with your donation going directly to a literacy program in the Grand Forks region. Join the Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy and Black Press to promote, celebrate and support literacy initiatives in the region. The Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy (CBAL) is the Columbia Basin and Boundary region not-for-profit literacy organization. Their vision is that local communities across the Columbia Basin and Boundary region will be healthy, inclusive, and committed to literacy and learning as lifelong and life-wide activities. CBAL works closely with libraries, schools, colleges and other community partners in your community to offer a variety of paths to learning. Schools and colleges provide formal learning opportunities that follow a curriculum

and result in formal recognition of learning by awarding diplomas or degrees. Both CBAL community based programming and college continuing education courses provide opportunities to learn in non-formal ways. That is, although there are recognized learning outcomes, the learning process is generally more relaxed and does not result in a diploma or degree. A silver smith course at the local college or a senior’s computer program offered by CBAL are both examples of non-formal learning. CBAL’s informal learning programs provide experiential learning opportunities and are designed to be responsive to the needs of those who participate. They do not result in formal credits and are led by someone who is acting as a facilitator of learning. These kinds of programs include Autobiographical Writing, Making Connections: Learning and Reading Partners, ESL conversation groups, and various parent and child early learning programs. CBAL’s staff recognize

the uniqueness of each community they serve and offer non-formal and informal literacy and learning programs to meet specific, local needs. The staff helps adults develop the functional skills in reading, writing, numeracy, English language, essential workplace skills and computer skills they need to be successful lifelong learners. They also help families with resources and information about how to support the learning development of their children beginning at birth. Improved literary skills increase confidence and participation in the economic, political and cultural life of the community. You can make a difference in Grand Forks. Participate in the Reach a Reader campaign by purchasing a paper on Oct. 9, volunteering to sell papers, or simply spreading the word as a campaign champion. To get involved contact the Gazette or Sheila Dobie, community literacy coordinator for the Boundary, at this email: sdobie@cbal.org. For more information, visit www.cbal.org or call 1.250.342.3210 ext. 8.

IN BRIEF Whooping cough Five new cases of whooping cough in the West Kootenay mean the disease is still in the outbreak stage, warns an Interior Health physician. Whooping cough (pertussis) is a highly contagious respiratory system which can result in prolonged illness, especially for infants and young children. Since June, 24 cases have been diagnosed in the Kootenay Boundary, with the majority occurring in Rossland and Trail, confirmed Dr. Rob Parker, Medical Health Officer for the health authority. “We are still seeing more cases,” said Parker, adding, “that means the bacteria (pertussis) is still circulating in the communities.” Although Parker could not conclude if the new cases were school-related, he encouraged parents to review their children’s immunization record to make sure they are up to date with vaccines.

Bruins slip slightly in two losses Border Bruins 4 Nitehawks 5 • Friday, Sept. 20 Fruitvale Border Bruins lost their first regular season game after three consecutive wins, falling 5-4 in Beaver Valley after giving up a two-goal lead in third period. Connor Gross led the Bruins with two goals and an assist. Max Newton added a pair of goals, while the KIJHL’s top scorer Jackson Purvis added three assists to his league-leading point total. “We had a few breakdowns in the defensive zone near the end,” said Bruins’ head coach Nick Deschenes. “But lots of positives: to be in that position in game four of the season. We’re pretty happy with the first two periods and, obviously, not the third. “Beaver Valley is kind of a benchmark in our division, and now we know where we sit against them. “They’re going to get better. Everyone’s going to get better. We just have to make sure we get better as well.” Deschenes said the team stuck to the game plan through the first two periods and were able to build a 4-2 lead going into the third. “Our forwards were fore-checking aggressively, supporting each other,” he said. “Our defencemen were moving the puck quickly. Goaltending was stopping everything.”

CRAIG LINDSAY

The Grand Forks Border Bruins showed plenty of moxie against their Neil Murdoch division foes the Castlegar Rebels on Sunday. Unfortunately, they struggled to put the puck in the net when they needed to and fell 5-3 to the Rebs at Grand Forks Arena. “We ended up playing catch-up the whole game,” said Bruins coach Nick Deschenes. “Coming off a bit of a heartbreaker on Friday, I was hoping for a bigger response from the group. Castlegar had played two games the previous two nights, but they came out hard and earned themselves two points.” Tyler Bryant opened scoring for Castlegar at the 10:23 mark of the first period. Lincoln Lane evened the score at 1-1 at 4:01 of the first,

The Bruins are back at home this Friday when they host the Columbia Valley Rockies at 7 p.m. at the Grand Forks Arena. “They’re working hard to recruit the right players,” said Deschenes. “They beat us both times we played last year. They’ll be a challenge, for sure.” Grand Forks travels to Nelson to play the Leafs on Saturday and then returns to GFA on Sunday to face Spokane.

Grand Forks’ winger Jackson Purvis brought the Bears to within one goal again after scoring at 1:49 of the second. Purvis, who leads the KIJHL in scoring, was assisted by Connor Gross and Dakota Little. Darren Medeiros put Castlegar up by a pair again, 4-2, at 6:22 of the third period.

front of a raucous home crowd. Derek Georgeopolous put the game away for Castlegar with an empty netter with 47 seconds left in the third. Kai McDonald was between the pipes for GF, stopping 30 of 34 shots. Nate Rabbit was in net for Castlegar and stopped 29 of 32. The “Wascally wabbit” made some timely saves, particularly in the second when Grand Forks was pressing. “Our issue right now is our effort without the puck,” said Deschenes. “That’s something were going to have to work on with our guys—having more intensity when we don’t have the puck. It’s basically a matter of commitment. It doesn’t really require skill. If the scoring’s not there at least we’ll have a chance to win the game.”

Soccer success The Grand Forks Secondary School senior boys soccer team weekend in Creston was a good development experience, said coach Mike Phelan. GFSS took a combination of junior grades (Grades 8-10) and senior grades (11-12) to round out the roster. “It was a senior level tournament so we were in tough against bigger, faster, more skilled players,” said Phelan. But as the tournament progressed, GFSS began to play more as a team and they ended up getting their first two goals of the season versus Castlegar. The combined soccer side will look to continue their efforts this week when they face Cranbrook and Invermere, and in the Nakusp tournament that takes place this weekend.

Christina Lake octet wins in Nakusp PAZ ALGUIRE

Special to the Grand Forks Gazette

On Aug. 19 the West Kootenay Challenge tournament was held in Nakusp. Christina Lake participated in the event, sending a team of eight ladies that included Pat Lawrence, Connie Kostash, Wanda Flack, Shawna Lum, Fran Farnworth, Paz Alguire, Arlette Dunbar and Gisele Le’claire. Another job well done as they brought the trophy back to Christina Lake for the fourth time. • The Ladies Open was held on Aug. 31 which boasted an amazing turnout of 128 ladies. Cathy Manson won the overall low net and Jen Woods from Kelowna won the overall low gross.

Volunteers helped make the event successful, including the kitchen staff for the amazing lunch, all the prizes that were donated, and everyone who organized the tournament. • The Tuesday Ladies’ League resumed on Sept. 3 for the second half of the golf season. Thirty-two ladies participated in the “Three Blind Mice” game held that first day. The winners were: (first flight) Ivy Walega and Heather Peterson; (second flight) Carol Large; and (third flight) Donna McNabb. • For the second Ladies’ Day on Sept. 10, 30 ladies participated in that day’s “Cha..cha..cha” game. The team that won consisted of Cathy Manson, Edna Kazakoff, Janet Fryer, D Wright and Val Bousvinue.

The Grand Forks Border Bruins held their first ever golf tournament fundraiser on Saturday at the Christina Lake Golf Course. “From what I gathered, it was a huge success,” said Border Bruins head coach and general manager Nick Deschenes. “The tournament brought in some money for the team and everyone involved had a lot of fun. We look forward to doing that again next year as a fundraiser.”

News Putting a rural lens on decisions Boundary Creek Times

Each year the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention provides local elected officials the opportunity to attend clinics and workshops that allow focused discussion around topics of interest and vital importance. Last week a convincing case was made for a long-term strategy of investment in the social and economic development of B.C.’s rural regions. The Rural BC Project (http:// www.sibacs.com/rural-bc-project/) is an initiative to stimulate discussion and understanding of these challenges and to prompt focused action to help rural B.C. communities succeed. Rural BC Project chair and Regional District of Kootenay-Boundary director Grace McGregor emphasized that a healthy rural B.C. is essential to a healthy B.C. She outlined the components of a rural strategy, as captured in the report, “The Pathway to Prosperity in British Columbia Runs Through Its Rural Places.” The project is a four-year effort by the province’s three Beetle Action Coalitions (BACs) to coordinate across regions and draw on

successful experiences in other jurisdictions in the U.S. and Canada. Improved infrastructure, including water supply, roads and broadband Internet service, is fundamental to any strategy. The project calls for a “rural lens” to be put on provincial decisionmaking in the wake of numerous impacts including the mountain pine beetle, centralization of government services and the decline in resource-based economies. McGregor told The Times that she was pleased with the reception the project received at the convention. “The premier actually gave a nod for rural B.C. in her speech,” she said. “We asked for a minister. She won’t give a new minister but she’ll put it under Steve Thomson, Minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations and will have one-to-one access with Donna Barnett, parliamentary secretary for Rural Development. “Donna will be working closely with us and taking our messages to the rural caucus,” said McGregor. “We presented as a clinic and I have heard nothing but positives out of that. We presented to the rural caucus and we presented to Christie Clark. I got really good feedback with everyone involved.”

IN BRIEF Hydro’s planned fee ‘outrageous’ BC Hydro’s planned fee of $35 a month for people who continue to refuse wireless smart meters is “outrageous” and isn’t justified based on what other jurisdictions charge, according to B.C.’s lone Green Party MLA. Andrew Weaver (Oak Bay-Gordon Head) said the proposed charge for manual meter readings is as high as many people’s entire power bills. Weaver pointed to some U.S. states that have similar opt-out programs from smart meters but charge much less. BC Hydro’s fees still require approval by the B.C. Utilities Commission. Weaver said he’s urging the regulators to reject the $35 fee based on the disparity with charges elsewhere.

UBCM endorses four-year terms Delegates at the Union of B.C. Municipalities have endorsed having local elections every four years, to match up with provincial votes. The resolution to extend terms of office from three years to four was supported by 60 per cent of voting delegates, who want the B.C. government to make the change in time for municipal elections in November 2014. If it is enacted, B.C. would join Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Quebec, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland and Labrador, Ontario, Prince Edward Island and New Brunswick, which have four-year terms for local politicians.

Faith to last an Eternity CRAIG LINDSAY

Grand Forks Gazette

As youth pastor at Grand Forks’ Gospel Chapel, Ben Jepsen knows all about faith. And as one of four partners at Eternity Clothing Company, a new silkscreen and shirt manufacturing company in the city, Jepsen and his partners have shown plenty of faith. That faith is paying off as the business is starting to take off as orders are now increasing. Each partner has different roles within the company, although they all help out wherever they can: Jepsen manages the whole business; Jason Hayashi is the shop manager and is usually the one making the actual shirts; Laird Salkeld is the designer; and Ben’s father Bruce Jepsen is the financial manager. “Laird and my father have been friends for a long time, as have Jason and I, so we basically teamed up to work in the shirt industry,” said Ben. “It’s pretty cool—we all have different areas of expertise. Eternity Clothing has their main office in the OK Tire Car Wash building. “We have everything we need at the car wash to put the designs on a screen, and put that screen and run ink through it onto a shirt,” said Ben. “We have a huge oven that has a conveyor belt that goes right through and cures the ink onto the shirt. Once it comes out of the oven, we’re ready to go.” Ben and Jason grew up together in Grand Forks and have always been close friends. The two even went off to Briercrest College in Saskatchewan, where they roomed together. “We’ve always had a dream to start up a shirt company and design shirts and stuff like that,” said Ben. “Jason started doing more research into what it would take. We’d be up late talking about different designs and different company names. The partners were fortunate that Lance Martens, owner of OK Tire Car Wash, had bought all

the shirt-manufacturing equipment and loaned the equipment and space to Eternity Clothing. “It was extremely generous of him,” said Ben. “Lance loans us the equipment and lets us use the space. We just help him with keeping the car wash clean and locking it up at night.” Ben said the company hopes to upgrade their equipment over time as the business grows. After a year in business and with some growing pains, the company looks poised to make some big gains. “We kind of just started out and were not really sure where this was going to go, or what we were going to do,” he said. Jason had computer savvy and created some designs so they tested the waters. “We found there weren’t many businesses like ours even in the Kootenays,” said Ben. “We found soon that jobs were coming in faster than we were able to do them. ” Ben says the company is looking at eventually adding embroidery and designing their own shirts and selling them. Currently, the company is mostly making shirts for businesses and sports. Ben stresses that the company will design and print shirts for anyone, but a minimum of 20 is recommended to make the screening beneficial. The company just completed a run of shirts for the Grand Forks Border Bruins, both for the players and for the team, to sell as merchandise during home games. They also made shirts for Pines Bible Camp for their 50th anniversary. “We love working with people and businesses in the community,” said Ben. “We want to make shirts that are affordable for people and make it worth their while to get shirts locally. If we can make shirts for you and your business and hand deliver, you’re saving money on shipping and you’re support a local business. You can reach Eternity Clothing Company at 250-442-7909 or on the web at eternityclothingcompany.com.

Quote of the Week: Blessed is the man who, having nothing to say, abstains from giving wordy evidence of the fact. ~ George Eliot (1819 - 1880)

Joke of the Week:

An elderly lady goes to her GP complaining about her flatulence. She tells him that although she farts many times each day, it’s more of a nuisance than a real problem. “What do you mean?” Asks her doctor. “Well,” says the old lady, “they’re silent and they don’t smell.” The doctor writes a prescription and tells her to come back in a week. When she returns she says, “I don’t know what you gave me doctor! I still fart all day and although they’re still silent, they now stink the place up!” The doctor nods and says, “now that we’ve cleared up your sinuses, I’ll see what I can do about your hearing.”

The Boundary Peace Initiative, along with co-sponsors the Kootenay Region Branch of the United Nations Association in Canada (KRUNA), honoured the International Day of Peace Saturday with a presentation featuring several speakers including elder Jack Blower. Also speaking was Forrest Semenoff, who told about how he didn’t like the violent costumes worn by classmates during Pirate Day at his school.

“Kids were bringing in shields and guns and swords and it upset him,” said organizer Laura Savinkoff of the Boundary Peace Initiative. “It reminded him that people get killed by those things. That children get killed by those things.” Forrest showed off the peace medal that he wore during the Pirate Day event. In 2002 the UN General Assembly officially declared September 21 as the permanent annual date for the International Day of Peace and it is honoured throughout the world.

Donations sought for humanitarian work MERISSA KELLY

Special to the Gazette

Mitchell Bekker and I (Merissa Kelly) have lived in Grand Forks all our life. We have volunteered many dedicated hours to the Grand Forks community. Mitchell and I have always wanted to volunteer in countries of need and it has been a dream of ours for a long time. We are part way to realizing that dream by volunteering with International Volunteer HQ program that helps communities in undeveloped areas. Starting in January, we will be spending our time in Ghana, South

Africa and Nepal over a period of seven months. We will spend weekdays working with orphaned children and evenings teaching sports. The countries we will be volunteering in have a great number of children living in poverty. While many of the children attend school during the day, they often have no extra-curricular activities to occupy their time after school and that situation has led many into trouble. The program we are involved in places focus on helping children develop both physical ability and sound, general life skills. We are very ex-

cited about this important opportunity and we are seeking some financial assistance to ensure that we have adequate support for food, transportation and sundries while there. A contribution will play a role in providing these kids with a chance to learn through what we have to offer. With your donation you are making this dream a reality. How can Grand Forks donate? Write a cheque to Merissa Kelly and deposit it at the Grand Forks Credit Union and ask to put the cheque into Merissa Kelly’s account.
