IN BRIEF City council hits the highway with ministry At the Union of British Columbia Municipalities (UBCM) conference, Coun. Bob Kendel and CAO Doug Allin met with representatives from the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure to discuss projects along Highway 3 and 33. “They’re continuing to invest into Highway 3,” said Allin. “(The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure) said they’re moving away from four lane passing lanes to three lane passing lanes, because they felt they can get more value for their money.” Ministry staff also said it would look into a possible flashing amber light at the intersection near Perley School. “We had a chat about the future plans for Highway 3 and to thank them for all the work done on Highway 33, which brings a lot of traffic to us,” said Kendel. “We talked again about getting the light at Perley School. The ministry representatives said they would take it under advisement.”

Jack Goddard Jr. stands outside the arena that could have his father’s name, pending RDKB approval.
New arena name considered CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
The Grand Forks and district recreation commission has unanimously approved the renaming of the Grand Forks Arena to the Jack Goddard Memorial Arena pending approval of the regional district board. Jack Goddard was mayor of Grand Forks for eight years and alderman for six years. He was part of the reason several important local projects were completed, including the relocation of the airport to its present site, the construction of the Boundary Mall, the building of the arena and the start of Babe Ruth baseball. Jack’s son, Jack Goddard Jr., made the presentation to the recreation commission on Thursday morning. Jack Goddard passed away on Sept. 12 at the age 93. During his proposal to the commission, which took place on Oct. 2, Jack Jr. described his father as being an avid sportsman whose passion for sports, like baseball and curling, was considerable.
“When we were little kids, we didn’t have organized baseball or really even hockey, for little kids,” said Jack Jr. “They had the arena built and Babe Ruth baseball. Dad was instrumental in both of them. But Jack Sr.’s proudest moment was the construction and completion of the Grand Forks Arena, and the continued success of so many recreational activities the arena gave the people of the community, Jack Jr. added. “The arena was his biggest contribution, recreation-wise, so I thought he’d be proud of (his name on) the arena. His major goal, probably his toughest project to organize because of the opposition, was the arena and it still stands out today.” Coun. Michael Wirischagin is city council’s representative on the recreation commission and acts as its vice-chair. He said the decision to name the arena after Jack Goddard was an easy one for the commission. “Jack was very integral in the construction of the arena,” he said. “He was the person that, as mayor, acquired the property and put together the pieces needed to construct the arena.”
Bridge study set for Christina Lake CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
A $25,000 feasibility study for a pedestrian bridge in Area C (Christina Lake) was approved by the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) board on Sept. 26. “We’ve been looking at getting a bridge across Christina Creek for a number of years because the bridge that is there now is a bit scary for children and seniors,” said Grace McGregor, Area C director. “And it’s not friendly at all for things like scooters or wheelchairs. We want it to
For the record
fit in with the community so we’re being a bit fussy.” McGregor said if any grants came available they needed to be ready. “The problem is, we’re not ready,” she added. McGregor said they need to know how much building the new bridge would cost and what steps would be needed for the process. “(Area C) parks and recreation have decided to take some of their reserve money and put that toward a feasibility study, so that if grants come available, all that information will be completed and we’ll
have a chance at getting that grant,” she said. “I’ve only heard a few people that are against the bridge. Most people, particularly the seniors, are really in favour of it, as are the school kids. They don’t like crossing the current bridge, especially in winter.” McGregor said she is hoping to talk to representatives from the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure. “We’ve talked to them before, and we’ll try and talk again to see if they’ll be willing to partner with us,” she said. “We’re going to put everything together so we’re ready.”
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints applied to the City of Grand Forks for a temporary use permit for commercial property located at 7255 Riverside Dr., the previous Gazette building. As part of the procedure to allow the temporary use permit, council needed to give notice that they intend to consider adopting a resolution allowing a temporary use permit. Notice must be officially delivered to all property owners within a 100foot radius, at least 10 days before the meeting at which council intends to consider adopting the resolution. Notice must be published in a newspaper at least three times and not more than 14 days before the adoption of the resolution to issue the permit. At a committee of the whole meeting council would hear from any interested parties as to their input on the matter. Council approved the motion and now staff will draft the appropriate temporary use permit and publish notice of the bylaw in the paper, giving notice to surrounding property owners of the time and date of the committee of the whole meeting on Oct. 15. At that meeting people will be allowed to voice their opinion and concern with respect to the temporary use permit.
POLICE BRIEFS Debit card stolen On Sept. 30 at 3:10 p.m., Grand Forks RCMP received a complaint of a theft of a debit card. “The individual went into the CIBC bank and did a transaction with his debit card, left the bank and didn’t retrieve his debit card,” said Staff Sgt. Jim Harrison. The debit card was apparently used to withdraw $300 from the person’s bank account, said Harrison. The matter is still under investigation. “We’d like to warn people to be careful and make sure not to leave debit cards at the bank and to protect your PIN number as required,” he said. Vandals strike beacon site The City of Grand Forks reported mischief to the beacon site at the top of Reservoir Road on Oct. 3 at 11:16 a.m. The amount of damage is unknown as of yet. The matter is still under investigation. Swerving to miss a deer An attempt to avoid hitting a deer caused a driver from Robson to hit the ditch. At 10:19 p.m. on Oct. 3 on Highway 3 near Danshin Village, the driver of a vehicle attempted to avoid hitting a deer. “With oncoming traffic coming
towards him, he got too close to the shoulder of the road and was pulled into a ditch,” said Harrison. Fortunately, the car hit a barbed wire fence which prevented him from going about another 30 metres down an embankment. No injuries were sustained. The driver, a 59-year-old male driving a 2005 Honda Civic, was from Robson. The damage was well over $1,000 according to police. Not swerving to miss a deer A vehicle struck a deer at the intersection of College Road and Highway 3 on Oct. 4 at 6:34 a.m. OnStar, the vehicle assistance system, reported the collision. There were no injuries. The damage to the vehicle is unknown at this point. The 75-year-old driver was from Sidney, B.C. Deer hits Jeep It was a wake up call for one driver on Sleepy Hollow Road and Highway 3 on Oct. 4 at 6 p.m. when the vehicle they were driving was hit by a deer. “The deer came out of the ditch and the driver had no time to avoid the impact,” said Harrison. The driver, who was a 57-yearold female from Sechelt, was not injured. She was driving a 2007 Jeep Liberty. The Jeep was undriveable after the accident.
In the Oct. 2 issue of the Grand Forks Gazette, the story “Jack Goddard remembered as city father,” the day of Jack Goddard’s death was incorrectly identified as Sept. 13, not Sept. 12, the correct day.

Carbon crunch
here aren’t many people who can dispute against the fact the climate is changing, but there are also few who can soundly establish a direct link to what is causing it. Defined as a significant and lasting change in weather patterns over a period of time—ranging from a few decades to (more likely) millions of years—climate change is more than a catch phrase; it is reality. The province and many communities and regional districts across B.C have realized this, taking steps a few years ago to sign onto the Climate Action Charter, a pledge to reduce carbon emissions to zero by 2012. That time has passed and, in a way, so did the ideal. Time has proven it wasn’t a feasible goal to have zero emissions, and still exist. So the province proposed municipalities could “buy” their way into zero emissions—purchasing carbon credits to offset emissions—not unlike the sale of indulgences centuries ago for the rich to “buy” their way into heaven. Many municipalities bought into projects that—although approved by the province—seemed a bit cryptic in what their effect was, and were usually situated quite a distance away. Now the province has changed the rules again, allowing municipalities to show they are “working towards” zero carbon emissions, permitting them to use the money coming back from the province for projects that will benefit the local environment. This puts the power into the hands of the people, and ultimately will allow for some worthwhile, and locally beneficial, projects for the community.

A look back at an interesting start on the Ball
I
CRAIG lINdSAy
t’s certainly been an interesting first few months here for me at the Gazette. I’ve covered plenty of diverse subjects, as one expects, working for a small town newspaper. I’ve enjoyed Back to the Wild West Day, where I got to see a real life, albeit fake, bank robbery. That was pretty exciting. Even if the robbery was staged, the horses were real and unpredictable as animals tend to be. But the robbers were real pros and clearly very experienced on horseback.
Also, this summer I took in the airport fly-in, which saw some very cool looking aircraft coming in and out of the Grand Forks Airport. There was also a delicious pancake breakfast and helicopter rides. That same weekend, of course, was the Grand Forks Fall Fair. The parade featured many colourful floats while the fairgrounds featured several arts and culture booths, a gymkhana and mini chuckwagon races. There were also several live acts, including local singer Amanda Thate, and fiddle champ Mike Sanyshyn. Also, in a busy August, I took in Fiestaval Spanish/ Mexican celebration at the Christina Living Arts Centre, a rugby tournament in Greenwood and Park in the Park car show in City Park.
All were well attended and featured a diverse group of participants and spectators. September was a little slower as we transitioned from summer to fall, although we said goodbye to editor Karl Yu, who took a similar position in Nanaimo, and said hello to new editor Timothy Schafer. At any rate, September saw the return to school for kids and the start up of fall teams. The Border Bruins returned to the ice and started the regular season with three straight wins, including an overtime thriller over defending league champion Castlegar Rebels. I’ve been out to lovely Christina Lake for several announcements such as the announcement of several community grants at the

bowling green, and the raising of the flag designating the visitor centre as an official B.C. information centre. There’s been plenty of news, but none bigger than the fire at City Hall on Sept. 19. I’ve also covered several city council meetings in Grand Forks and a regional district meeting in Christina Lake. I covered Grand Forks court during the trial of Christopher Cusack, who is being charged with starting the fires at the Grand Forks and Winnipeg hotels. All in all, there have been plenty of interesting events and news going on. I don’t know if the coming months can top the past few, but I wouldn’t bet against it.

Letters
to the editor
Keeping the faith in a higher power To the Editor, Just leave them deer be. They are not doing any damage, nor are they harming anyone, and they have a Godgiven right to feed and survive. They are God’s creation and the Lord God almighty provides for his creatures. It’s no skin off your noses if I buy feed for my bambis during the cold winter months. Early in the morning they look at me through the dining
room window with their big, beautiful eyes. I cannot refuse them feed. I have a heart beating in my chest and also have principles. No one, but no one, shall ever take those rights and freedoms away from me. If I must appear in court I shall stand and defend those creatures who cannot speak for themselves. There are those in this society that would even deny those deer a drink of water
from the river. Those that feel they have the power and authority over nature are in for a pleasant surprise. He is up there in the great beyond, and I keep my faith in the Almighty. I’ve gone through many challenges in my day and I accept this confrontation resolutely. Just try me. F. J. Duralia Grand Forks
Cleaning up on the kettle

Eva (right) and Isaac Van Hoogevest with their mom Christy (left) were part of the 12 people who showed up to pick up garbage for the Kettle River clean-up on B.C Rivers Day on Sept. 29. The clean up was hosted by the Granby Wilderness Society. There was over 170 kilograms of trash taken to the dump.
Thumbs Up to Dr. Donald Howe Thumbs up to pubs and restaurants that serve alcohol-free wine and beer. Thumbs up to those in the community who donate fresh produce to the Food Bank. Thank you. Thumbs up to the United Church and their beautification of their church. Looking good. Thumbs up and so grateful that Ken and Dave at Overwaitea are looking for ways to reach out to those who need a hand up in the Boundary area. Your generosity is very much appreciated. Thumbs Up to the Gazette for their new layout, the GFSS Weekly Howl section and the section promoting the downtown core. Keep up the good work. Thumbs up to Dr. Donald Howe, who died recently of a brain tumour, for making a video
proposing that Canada adopt death with dignity legislation. Those who agree should write their politicians at all levels. Thumbs down to the person that hit and ran over my kitten at the end of Donaldson Drive-North Fork Road. Could we please obey the speed limit? Children also live on this road. Thumbs up to the good Samaritan that brought her to me wrapped in a fleece blanket. 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.

A neglected part of the biosphere There are no options available other than to change what we are doing. Only then will we avoid a catastrophe like the one on Canada’s East Coast when the cod stocks disapperared.
W
e’ve been so distracted by the talk about “global warming” and “climate change” that our understanding of Rousing the the more significant issue has been Rabble clouded. roy ronaghan All species of plants and animals living on land and in the oceans are suffering from a carbon overload. Plants need carbon dioxide to thrive, but they now have to cope with far too much of it. Oceans cover over 70 per cent of the Earth’s surface to great depths and provide the environment for an unknown number of species of fish and other aquatic life that thrives in a saline solution. If they were drained, the landmass they cover would increase Earth’s surface by 90 per cent. Carl Safina, a marine biologist and president of Blue Ocean Institute says, “It’s not just about climate. It is and always has been, about the carbon. From atmosphere to ocean to cell, the carbon burden is the problem.” Living as we do in an interior community, the health of Earth’s oceans is not something that is high on our list of concerns. We likely don’t even give them concern when we decide to feast on prawn, crab, lobster, wild salmon or tuna. The oceans are out of sight and out of mind and a neglected part of the biosphere that is taken for granted though oceans have a huge role in the regulation of the global climate, maintaining a liveable atmosphere on Earth, and breaking down air and water borne wastes. To the uninformed the world’s oceans are thought of as being healthy and teaming with life. They are seen as a vast larder for protein rich food, places for recreation, and places to cruise on huge luxurious ships. Earth’s oceans are in trouble. They are sick, and in many locations they are dead or on the verge of dying. They are burdened with vast quantities of carbon dioxide (CO2) from land-based industrial operations because they have become a place to dump unknown quantities of chemical and solid wastes. They are also being over fished by huge industrial fishing operations that are decimating fish stocks. The prognosis for the health of the oceans is not good. There is plenty of documentation to show that global climate change brought on by industrial operations and other human activity around the globe is having an impact on the oceans beyond anything ever imagined. An impact seldom mentioned is an increased acidity from the absorption of CO2. Another is the quantity of plastics found worldwide. Alana Mitchell, author of Sea Sick, a book published in 2009, visited some of the most threatened ocean environments to gather information on the results of a century or two of maltreatment by human populations. She describes a dead zone in the Gulf of Mexico that is a lifeless blob where no marine life can survive because there is little or no oxygen. The cause of the blob is chemicals from the Mississippi River system being deposited in the gulf’s waters. Scientists have identified over 400 ocean dead zones. A few of Mitchell’s other discoveries were a dying Great Barrier Reef; a severe decline in the level of ocean plankton, the plant that is a vital life source for a multitude of ocean fish and other animals; and a 90 per cent reduction in populations of the predatory fishes like cod, tuna and swordfish. If we are to maintain healthy oceans we must stop using them as waste depositories, end over-fishing, and set aside marine reserves. Where destructive practices have been eliminated, ocean life has recovered. There are no options available other than to change what we are doing everywhere in the world. Only then will we avoid a catastrophe like the one experienced on Canada’s East Coast when the cod stocks disappeared. Roy Ronaghan is a Boundary-based columnist for the Grand Forks Gazette.

City finds home away from home
IN BRIEF Tradition continues The Rotary Halloween Bonfire tradition continues on Thursday, Oct. 31. For almost 40 years Grand Forks Rotary has been hosting a Halloween Bonfire. The Rotary Club started to hold annual bonfires to provide a focal point for the youth and others celebrating Halloween. The event has drawn favourable attention from the local community and even was listed in Beautiful BC magazine as a must see. The free admission event is held at Angus Macdonald Park starting at 6 p.m. with the lighting of the bonfire and ends with Grand Forks’ only annual fireworks display. In between there is a fortune-teller and hot chocolate. Back by popular demand, free bags of Rotary’s kettle corn will be handed out. Rotary funds the event through the sale of door cards to show that homeowners have contributed to the bonfire. These cards are available through many participating merchants and any Rotarian.

A new home has been found for the remaining City Hall services for the City of Grand Forks. The relocation is the second and last in the wake of the fire that damaged the first floor reception and administration areas of City Hall on Sept. 19. Effective Oct. 21, administration, development and engineering, finance, council chambers and mayor’s office will be located at 6641 Industrial Parkway (old Canpar office building). This location is temporary, until renovations are completed at City Hall. “Our residents, businesses and visitors are assured to receive the same services as before from these this new temporary location,” said Mayor Brian Taylor. Grand Forks residents had a sneak peek at City Hall recently. More than 70 people came by City Hall to take
a look at the first floor and talk to mayor, council and staff about the fire and the next steps. “It was a great opportunity for our community to gather and reflect on what had transpired and to talk about the future,” said Taylor. “Our City Hall represents an important piece of our community heritage.” Restoration of the historic 102-year-old building is under way, starting with the clean up of the burnt and smoke damaged debris. “Our intent is to restore the first floor entrance areas in keeping with the history of the building,” said Taylor. “Once plans are finalized, we will put them on display for the community to see.” Costs for the relocation and restoration are covered by the city’s insurance. More information on the fire and the steps to recovery can be found on the city’s website at www. grandforks.ca.

IN BRIEF
Continued from Page 1
When the auditor general found what he believed to be incorrect evaluation of carbon credits in Darkwoods, Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) chief administrative officer John MacLean indicated that a red flag was raised. “The initial proposal was to invest in the Darkwoods project,” MacLean said, “but the auditor general for B.C., in their last report, raised some questions about Darkwoods and other projects as appropriate places to invest carbon tax funds.” MacLean said the decision was made, along with the Central Kootenay and East Kootenay regional districts— who were partners in the project—that they would not invest at the time.
Bylaw Continued from Page 1
The new system would also be of benefit to residents. “We will have a process,” MacLean said, “that we can easily explain and everybody will understand without having to engage in the court process.” MacLean admitted the RDKB didn’t have many bylaws to begin with, and there were only a few bylaw infractions that were disputed.
“There was no way we were going to ask our politicians to invest in any kind of an exchange project for carbon credits that the auditor general of B.C. was asking questions about,” MacLean stated. Instead, the three regional districts decided to create their own fund in which to invest carbon credits. “The decision was then made,” MacLean said, “that, since we are allowed to create a reserve and put the money into it for approved projects, the decision was to do that locally.” On Sept. 26 the RDKB board passed the RDKB Climate Action Reserve Fund bylaw, a wide reaching bylaw that will allow the district to add to the fund $25 per tonne of measurable greenhouse
Still, the framework would allow all regional municipalities to coordinate its bylaw enforcement practices with the new system. The new system is made possible through the province’s Local Government Bylaw Notice Enforcement Act. Under the act, regional districts and municipalities may adopt a bylaw notice dispute adjudication system that replaces the provincial court as the only means to resolve disputes of minor bylaw breaches.
gas emissions per year. The money will then be used to fund projects of its choosing designed to reduce energy consumption and move the district toward carbon neutrality. When asked if any projects have yet been identified locally, MacLean was noncommittal. “Nothing specific. We have identified various issues. There’s always the potential for building upgrades, and we will continue to work with our partners in the Central and East Kootenay.” Still, he hinted, “There’s always the opportunity that we can get three or four arenas together and upgrade ice plants with new technology that reduces greenhouse gases, and we could use the funds for that.”
Under the new system, a schedule of applicable bylaws would be drawn up along with the monetary penalties for contravention and the length of time permitted to pay or dispute the bylaw. A system of adjudication would be established for disputes to include a screening officer with the power to cancel the bylaw infraction or amend the penalty. If the disputant was not happy with the screening officer’s judgement, an independent adjudicator with
the authority to determine whether or not a bylaw was in fact contravened, would be appointed. Neither adjudication requires court time and both can be held in a variety of venues that the parties agree to ahead of time. Once the process is complete, any fines upheld by the adjudicator must be paid. A collection agency will be used if required, and fines not collected will be registered as a lien against the disputant’s property.

Water problems forecasted Climate change will likely mean warmer, rainier winters in B.C. as well as reduced summer stream flows, a forum in Vancouver heard Monday as new international findings were released. Dr. Francis Zwiers, director of the Pacific Climate Impacts Consortium (PCIC) and vice-chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) working group 1, said projections for B.C. point to further warming of 2.9 degrees in the winter and 2.4 degrees in the summer by 2100, under a moderate carbon emission scenario. Winter warming on that scale could translate into 17 to 51 more days per year of frost-free conditions, he told the forum, in the wake of the already measured reduction of 24 annual frost days since 1900 and a 2.1-degree increase in the province’s winter temperatures. While a longer growing season might be a boon to gardeners and farmers, Zwiers noted warming winters have also allowed unwanted species like the mountain pine beetle to flourish and wreak havoc on Interior forests. “You can just imagine there would be many other organisms that would find B.C. to be a much more hospitable place to live, even in a slightly warmer climate than we have at the moment, or a slightly wetter climate than we have at the moment.” PCIC researchers projected climate changes in B.C. over the rest of this century using the same models as the IPCC. Winter warming would be greater in the northeast than other parts of the province, while summer warming projections are roughly uniform.

Fire Prevention Week 2013

Kitchen fires are the focus of Fire Prevention Week 2013
(NC)— Recent statistics show that across North America, cooking was involved in 156,300 home fires that caused more than 470 deaths, 5,390 injuries and $1 billion in property damage. This is why the Canadian Association of Fire Chiefs (CAFC) and the Fire Marshal’s Public Fire Safety Council are taking aim at preventing kitchen fires during this year’s Fire Prevention Week running from October 6-12. “Kitchen activity is the number one cause of home fires, so we need to warn and educate families,” says Stephen Gamble, a fire chief and president of the CAFC. “Working with teachers and fire departments we will give families the recipe they need to prevent kitchen fires and to escape safely if one occurs.”
The CAFC, with support from its partner organizations, will send educational materials via Scholastic right into primary classrooms. Teachers can follow lesson plans and give kids
‘homework’ to be done with their parents. Contests during this time will encourage participation – and classroom visits by local firefighters are also popular during Fire Prevention Week.
Key kitchen safety pointers include: • Never leave the room when you are cooking and keep pot handles turned in. • Keep anything flammable away from the stove, including your clothes. • Don’t use the oven or stovetop if you are sleepy, have consumed alcohol or used drugs. • If a small grease fire starts, slide a lid over the pan and turn off the burner. “An escape plan is also essential,” Gamble says. “When a smoke alarm sounds, everyone needs to calmly know what to do and where to go. Planning two ways out of each room greatly increases your chances of get-

She adds two additional tips. “If you’ve taken down your smoke alarm or removed the batteries because of a false alarm, it won’t be working when you need it most. So as part of creating an escape plan with your kids, also make sure smoke alarms are installed and fully powered on every storey of your home. “And remember that smoke alarms wear out, so do replace them every 10 years whether they are battery operated or hardwired into your home’s electrical system.” Kidde is a major partner in the CAFC’s Fire Prevention Week campaign.

Cooking oil and grease fires are a major cause of residential fires in Canada Kitchen fires due to cooking oil or grease igniting into flames cause the fastest-spreading and most destructive type of residential fire. When cooking with grease or oil, it is extremely important that you plan ahead so that you will know how to react fast to fire. Here are some tips: Deep Frying • The safest way to deep fry foods such
as chicken or fries is to use a thermostatically-controlled electric skillet or a deep fat fryer. Pan Frying • Keep a pan lid or cookie sheet handy in case grease or oil catches fire. The lid or cookie sheet should be slid over the top of the pan to smother the fire. • Never attempt to move a flaming pot or pan away from the stove. The movement can fan the flames and so spread the fire. The pan will also likely be very hot, causing you to drop it. FIRE PREVENTION WEEK In either case, you are placing yourself at great risk. Your immediate action should be to smother the fire by sliding WHEREAS there is increasing public awareness of the dangers of fire throughout a lid or flat cookie sheet over North America; the pan. Afterwards, turn off the heat and exhaust the fan, AND WHEREAS the week of October 6th to 12th has traditionally been designated allowing the pan time to cool. as Fire Prevention Week; Most importantly, react fast, because grease fires spread NOW THEREFORE be it resolved that the Board of Directors of the Regional very quickly.

ting out safely.”
• Broiling is a popular method of cooking. When you use your broiler, place the rack 5 to 8 cm (two to three inches) from the broiler element. Always place a drip pan beneath the broiler rack to catch the fat drippings. Never use aluminum foil for this purpose because the fat accumulated on the foil could catch fire or spill over. Microwave Cooking Microwave ovens are a marvellous time-saving tool, but there are three characteristics of microwave cooking you should be cognisant of: • The heat is reflected by the metal interior. • Heat can pass through glass, plastic and other materials. • Heat is absorbed by the food. Foods, like those in high-fat or sugar, can heat very rapidly but feel cool to the touch. Pastry fillings can be very hot, but the crust cooler. Milk in baby bottles could be boiling, but the bottle itself not very hot to the touch. Use caution at all times. Do not use tin foil or any other metal objects in the microwave. If a fire occurs, keep the door closed and unplug the unit. Call a qualified maintenance technician to ensure the microwave is in proper working order before using it again.

2013: A record breaking year for Grand Forks Fire/Rescue
www.grandforksgazette.ca A11
Thank You The City of Grand Forks would like to recognize and congratulate our Fire Department and its many volunteers for their excellent and ongoing commitment to fire and emergency prevention. And in particular the fine work and quick response to the recent fire incident at City Hall.
When you change your smoke alarm battery, remember to clean the lint from your clothes dryer vent too!

Grand Forks Fire/Rescue. For 116 years, Grand Forks has been protected by a dedicated group of volunteer firefighters. Grand Forks Fire/Rescue currently has 39 volunteers divided amongst 5 fire halls around the Grand Forks and North Fork valleys. The firefighters are trained in all aspects of firefighting (structural, vehicle, wildland), and also a wide range of rescue disciplines (medical response, slope and highangle rope work, swiftwater, confined space, automobile extrication).
With such diverse training, it comes as no surprise to find that the group collectively gave over 10,000 hours in 2012 in service to the Grand Forks area between
callouts and practices. This year is the department’s busiest on record, having already surpassed the previous record number of responses. Recruiting and retaining volunteers is difficult in any organization, and modern lifestyles and work schedules certainly don’t make things easier. Grand Forks is truly priviledged to have such an amazing group of volunteers willing to put themselves at risk in service to the community, with an average length-of-service that is nearly double the national average. The department is always on the lookout for prospective new members, and if this type of training and work sounds appeal-
ing you can stop by the downtown Fire Hall to get information on joining our team.
One of the roles of the modern fire department is to help prevent fires from starting in the first place. Grand Forks Fire/Rescue conducts dozens of public education sessions on fire prevention and fire extinguisher training through the year, and Fire Prevention Week is a great opportunity to remind people that fire extinguishers should be checked annually, and that smoke detector batteries should be replaced every 6 months, because Working Smoke Detectors Save Lives.
Burns – The Need For Caution
Every year in Canada, severe injuries and deaths occur as a result of burns and scalds. Sadly, many of these injuries affected children and could have easily been prevented. Usually, it’s children’s curiosity that gets them into trouble. They come across a lighter or matches, or they manage to get too close to a baseboard heater or a hot stove element. Burns from Hot Liquids • When bathing children, always turn cold water on first before the hot. Test the water temperature before allowing your child to get into the bathtub or shower. Consider adjusting your hot water heater to a maximum temperature of 49°C or 120°F. • Children should not play with a hot water tap. Teach them to turn the cold water on first. • Avoid carrying or holding children
while you are drinking a hot beverage. Burns from Household Appliances • Turn pot handles towards the centre of the stove. • Keep cords for electrical appliances such as deep fryers, kettles, steam irons and toasters out of the reach of children. • Supervise children near lamps with accessible hot light bulbs. • Store items that interest children, such as cookies, away from the immediate area around the kitchen stove. • Keep children away from stationary and portable heaters. Lighters and Matches Every year hundreds of fires are started by children playing with lighters or matches. Many of these fires are caused by children under the age of five. Chil-
dren as young as 18 months have caused fires by operating lighters. Disposable lighters sold by retailers must be childresistant, but remember, child-resistant does not mean childproof. Store lighters out of sight and out of the reach of children and do not remove the child safety devices from the lighter. Remember to: • Teach children that lighters and matches are not toys. • Instruct young children to tell an adult if they find lighters or matches. • Set a good example: always use lighters and matches responsibly. • Install and maintain smoke alarms. • Supervise your children’s play. Prevention is the best way to keep your home safe from fire. For more information on fire prevention, contact your local Fire Department.

Readjusting recycling rhetoric Regional district prepares for coming changes to delivering recycling Jim HOLTZ
Premier raPs recycling
Grand Forks Gazette
Despite fears of increased costs raised in other districts and municipalities around the province over changes to recycling regulations, taxpayers in the Kootenay Boundary Regional District (RDKB) have nothing to worry about. According to Alan Stanley, director of environmental services, when new regulations regarding recycling come into effect in May, neither taxpayers or homeowners will notice any change in either taxes or service. “Our recommendation to the board, which was adopted, was that we keep the (recycling) program exactly as it is for the time being, and then we’ll let this new program start up,” he said. As a result of new provincial regulations, all major retailers and producers of paper and plastic packaging must take responsibility for collecting and recycling their packaging by next May. In order to achieve that end, a new provincial agency, Multi-Material BC (MMBC), was created and all major producers and retailers were required to join, each submitting an extensive plan for ways in which they intended to reduce the amount of packaging they use. According to MMBC managing director Allen Langdon, producers will pay for their share of the new program based on how much packaging they generate, thereby providing them with a profit incentive to reduce packaging. Having the MMBC take over paper and packaging recycling should result in an annual saving of around $500,000 to the regional district, according to RDKB chairman Larry Gray. And while taxpayers may hope for a slight reduction in taxes because of that saving, Gray says that is not likely. “We have some long-term situations which we are looking at,” Gray said. “We have some landfill sites that we have to put some money aside for; maybe 20 years down the road we will have to close those sites.” According to Stanley, the key to extending the life of landfill sites rests with effective organic waste management. “Organics management is very important to the future of solid waste management programs,” Stanley said. “It’s an absolutely fantastic opportunity to have that discussion, and the timing is perfect as well because the board has decided to do a full update of the Solid Waste Management Plan, the provincially mandated document that the districts have to have to look at a lot of these initiatives that we are working on.” The complexity of having MMBC completely take over the wide variety of municipal and regional district recycling programs has left some local officials around the province concerned that not only will service be reduced, but that costs for taxpayers and homeowners will increase.
The
Premier Christy Clark is criticizing the rollout of a new recycling agency that has caused alarm among municipalities and businesses across the province. Multi-Material BC is slated to take charge of blue box pick-up next May when it becomes responsible for collecting and recycling all packaging and printed paper—at the provincial government’s direction. “I recognize this wasn’t done well,” Clark said of the planned producer-pay system. “It’s been far too bumpy a ride. There is a lot more work to be done.” The premier spoke a day after local politicians at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention passed a resolution demanding more time to negotiate acceptable contracts with MMBC to avert higher costs and the potential erosion of existing recycling services. Clark agreed more time and flexibility is needed “so that local communities have a little bit of leverage in trying to put together the best deal that works for them.” She said MMBC, a stewardship group formed of retailers and other packaging producers, must ensure its board includes British Columbians, not just industry representatives in Toronto. Any business that puts packaging or printed paper in the hands of B.C. residents and ultimately the waste stream must register with MMBC as stewards. Some small businesses were unaware of the program until they were warned by MMBC they could face fines of up to $200,000 if they fail to register. Small businesses have been asked to sign contracts without knowing what the final fee schedule will be. MMBC has said it will take more time to determine the costs of the program and how to apportion then–and it will exempt businesses with revenues of less than $750,000–but many businesses fear the request that they trust the new agency amounts to signing a blank cheque. — Jeff Nagel, Black Press
Richmond Mayor Malcolm Brodie worries that taxpayers will end up paying twice: first through their taxes and then again when the major producers and retailers increase the cost of goods to make up for the cost of recycling. Stanley is more optimistic. The new program is very similar to recommendations that the RDKB brought to the Union of BC Municipalities in 2009, he said, and expansion of recycling and waste reduction is something that the region’s residents are in favour of. “The success of the Grand Forks green bin program has really inspired a lot of the board members and the citizens across the district,” he said, and prompted many people to ask when it can be expanded throughout the district. “There’s an awful lot of speculative nay saying, where people are saying that they don’t think this new program is going to work out,” Stanley continued. “Well, holy cow, we do a lot of new programs and initiatives and if we just worried about what might go wrong, we never would get anything done. “You have to weigh the pros as well as the cons and give everything the appropriate weight, not just look at the negative which I think a lot of people are doing. I think that is doing a disservice to their citizens.”

Children learnby by 6playing! success
Language and Vocabulary Development
• Vehicles and Animals. Playing with cars, trucks and trains as well as animals provides for many new vocabulary words as children learn the names of each, what they do, what they eat or where you can find them. Additionally, children and adults can create all kinds of scenarios that the vehicles or animals might find themselves in, providing for further language and vocabulary development. • Dollhouse and Dolls. Playing with a dollhouse or dolls allows your child to reenact what happens in their everyday life, using the words and phrases they hear. You are likely to hear your own words come out of his/her mouth as he/she recreates events that have happened, perhaps with an outcome more suited to their liking!
Imagination and Creativity
• Dramatic Play. Provide a few props such as dishes and play food, empty food boxes and a cash register or stuffed animals and a doctor’s kit, and your child will be transported into a different place! Watch and be amazed at what your child will come up with as they play. • Craft Supplies. Without a specific project complete, provide your child with a variety of craft supplies such as markers and crayons, scraps of fabric or paper, empty boxes or containers, glue, buttons and stickers. Allow them to create anything they likes and watch their inner artist emerge! taken from education.com

Kootenay-based TV show airs on food production SUBMITTED
Special to the Grand Forks Gazette
Deconstructing Dinner, an original new ichannel series for television and the web, investigates one of the most important issues in the everyday lives of Canadians: our food, and where it comes from. The six-part documentary series premiered across Canada on ichannel on Monday, Sept. 16 and will air weekly for six weeks. Content will also appear on the Deconstructing Dinner web site (deconstructingdinner.ichannel.ca). The series traces the path our food takes from farms and gardens to the kitchen table, and reveals the farreaching impact that food production has on everything from local economies to human nutrition or flavour. The newly launched companion website will feature an extensive library of webisodes, along with recipes and a host of other supplementary features. Deconstructing Dinner is written and hosted by Nelson food journalist Jon Steinman and produced for ichannel by awardwinning Toronto filmmaker Declan O’Driscoll. Music for the series is written by Emmy-nominated musician and Slocan Valley resident Adham Shaikh. “The goal of Deconstructing Dinner is to help Canadians better understand the state of our food supply,” Steinman said. “We hope to inspire viewers to recognize the role each of us can play in making sure our food has a positive impact on individuals, communities and the environment.”

Retirement Living at it’s Best
In this modern age there is no reason that seniors shouldn’t have the best retirement possible. The ideals of having a comfortable home, being able to set your own schedule based upon your interests, exceptionally delicious and nutritious food with the company of others: this should be the norm, not the exception. Seniors should be able to live in a place that ensures they can maintain their independence while also having their needs met, instead of just a ‘home on the hill,’ Fortunately Silver Kettle Village believes in the higher quality of life and aims to provide an entirely new form of housing to seniors that will ensure all residents will have the most opportunity to experience the best years of their life, on their terms. Silver Kettle Village is an amazing community located at an ideal location in Grand Forks, British Columbia. It features a variety of apartment sizes to suit any senior’s lifestyle ranging from studio apartments to two bedrooms supported with various cooking and cleaning services to ensure that seniors can spend more time living their lives and less time worrying about scrubbing the floors. Included in each of these maintenance-free suites is a range of features designed to accommodate even the most independent resident’s desires, while still having 24-hour emergency monitoring service for a little extra piece of mind. Full kitchens are laid out to be as bright and comfortable as possible and come with a stove and refrigerator to allow for the preparation of personal meals or snacks anytime. Each suite is also equipped with its own personal heat and air conditioning to allow the residents to decide their personal comfort level. Stepping beyond the privacy of their personal suite, residents will find a wide range and variety of common and shared areas including a fully stocked library, on-site beauty salons, a luxurious and relaxing spa room, a games room filled with a variety of leisure opportunities, and an activity-room which hosts a range of interesting events and entertainment. All this is supplemented with several very cozy and conveniently-placed
lounges. Each of these areas is easily accessible, and help to encourage the strong sense of community that makes the Village such a wonderful place to be. Silver Kettle Village also realizes just how much pets are a part of the family which is why the building is completely pet friendly, encouraging residents to bring their companions with them to share their suite. The hospitality services come with no extra charge to the affordable monthly rent which allow residents to enjoy worry-free benefits like the 24hour emergency monitoring, weekly housekeeping, the wide variety of daily social and recreational activities, as well as the complimentary shuttle bus. Also of note is the fantastic central dining room which is both elegant and intimate with its own fireplace. There, residents can enjoy delicious meals which are prepared by on-site chefs, and are served by a passionate and cheerful wait staff who are always happy to welcome guests and family to any meal. In addition to these wonderful amenities, utility bills including water, heat, air conditioning, and cable television are covered by the low-monthly rent, allowing seniors to spend less time worrying about bills and more time enjoying their retirement. Silver Kettle Village’s location in Grand Forks is only a short drive away from the small town’s historic downtown which is filled with an array of shops and services. Nestled in the Kootenay Boundary, one can be assured of spectacular and scenic views of the surrounding mountains. This setting only adds to a peaceful and relaxing environment that Silver Kettle Village aims to provide for its residents. With many parks, golf courses, and the magnificent Christina Lake located nearby there is an abundance of adventure to be had. Without having to worry about the responsibilities of home-ownership seniors at Silver Kettle Village are able to enjoy their lives to the fullest in whatever way they choose. Open daily, call (250) 442-0667 to find out more information or to schedule a tour.

Silver Kettle marks first year of operation with celebration CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
Silver Kettle Village celebrated its one-year anniversary with a barbeque luncheon and tours of the building. “We hosted about 110 people including our residents and people from the community and it was a terrific turnout,” said Celeste Mullin, chief operating officer for Golden Life Management Corp., which operates Silver Kettle and 10 other retirement centres. “The whole point of the anniversary was to celebrate everyone’s success over the past year because the success of Silver Kettle Village is a result of our small team, our amazing staff and our strong part-
nership with Interior Health Authority (IHA).” Mullin said the village has received strong support from the community. She also credits the residents of Silver Kettle for helping make it a success. “It’s truly a team of people over the last year that have made it a success,” she said. There are 48 independent living suites at Silver Kettle and only a few are left, said Mullin. The village also has 40 funded residential care suites that are filled. Silver Kettle Village came about as a result of a community assessment study by IHA which determined that there was a need in the Grand Forks area for more residential care beds.
Thank you for supporting our parish fundraiser

Getting a grip on winter driving CRAIG LINDSAY
information
Grand Forks Gazette
Even though we haven’t seen any of the white stuff yet, it’s not too early to start thinking of putting on winter tires. In fact, if you are driving on highways with winter travel signs you must have winter tires or carry chains from Oct. 1 to April 30. On the RCMP’s winter driving tips webpage (Get a Grip…with Winter Tires; bc.cb.rcmp-grc. gc.ca) they ask: Do I really need winter tires? The answer is a resounding yes. Here’s why: Rubber tends to harden in cold weather thus reducing friction and stopping capability of the vehicle. The new generation winter tires maintain their elasticity and gripping power at lower temperatures (-35 C and below), whereas all season tires tend to stiffen and lose gripping power around 0 C. A study showed that winter tires reduce stop-
Other tips from the RCMP site: • Get your vehicle ready for winter in the fall • Don’t drive under the influence • Pack an emergency kit • Learn and practice winter driving techniques before you need them • Plan your trip and tell your friends and family. Check road and weather conditions Source: bc.cb.rcmp-grc.gc.ca
ping distances by up to 25 per cent or between two to three car lengths. That could be the difference between a safe stop and a fender bender or worse. Kate Trotter, public affairs officer for the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure, urges motorists to “know before they go” by checking DriveBC for information about highway conditions and weather.
three things not to do when winter driving 1. Don’t get too close to sanding/salting trucks If you find yourself behind a plow, keep a safe distance behind it—61 metres (200 feet) at the least. Visibility near the plow will be greatly reduced because of blowing snow, and if you’re following too close, you’ll fall into the plow driver’s blind spot. Also, keep in mind that the plow may be spreading win-
ter abrasive (small rocks) on the road. Travelling too close to the plow could increase the danger of damaging your windshield. 2. Never pass a winter maintenance vehicle on the right Plows generally be travelling relatively slowly and it might be tempting to try and pass them. But these vehicles often have attachments which
can reach four m. to the right. If you have to pass a winter maintenance vehicle, wait and pass on the left. 3. Don’t expect ice to melt as soon as it’s sanded Even if a truck has just plowed and sanded the road, it doesn’t mean it’s going to be bare and wet. The winter abrasive can take time to work, so be sure to drive carefully.

To Kill A Watt? At the Library
IN BRIEF
e’ve got an action-packed October, full of movies and Lego and poetry. Also, our much-anticipated book sale! Here goes: Kill A What?! I bet you didn’t know this, but our library has a power monitor available for borrowing. It’s the Kill A Watt EZ, and the way it works is you plug it into the socket, and then you plug any appliance directly into the Kill A Watt. It’ll tell you how efficient the appliance is, and will indicate consumption (by kilowatt hour). Easy to use, and you it just might help you save some money on your next hydro bill. Movie night The next film in our NFB series is Sarah Polley’s award-winning documentary Stories We Tell (108 minutes). We’ll take care of the popcorn, you take care of getting yourselves here on Thursday, Oct. 10 at 6 p.m. Lego challenge It’s here, at long last! Our monthly Lego extravaganza begins on Friday, Oct. 11, from 1-3 p.m. All ages welcome (pre-schoolers must be accompanied by an adult). We’ve got enormous bins of Lego, and snacks too.

Poetry Café at the Grand Forks Library
Who’s your favourite poet? Is it Frank Bidart, Frank Marshal Davis, Frank O’Hara, or Frank Stanford? My favourite is Grand Fork’s Frank Brummet. He’ll be reading a couple of his poems at the Poetry Café on Thursday, Oct. 17. Why not join Frank and read a couple of poems you have written, or read aloud a poem or two authored by your favourite poet? Everyone from students to seniors is invited to participate in this open mic hour at the Grand Forks and District Public Library. The event, from 6:30-7:30 p.m., is presented by the Grand Forks Writers Guild. An appreciative audience is most welcome—what’s a reader without a few listeners? — Lorraine Gordon

The provincial government is providing $64,000 towards two community-based programs in the Boundary and West Kootenay to help adult learners improve their reading and writing skills. Selkirk College will be partnering with the Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy on the West Kootenay and the Boundary Community Family Literacy and Adult Tutoring as well as the Community Outreach programs. Both programs are receiving $32,000. “Literacy benefits all regardless of age; and we’re never too old to learn,” said Linda Larson, MLA for Boundary-Similkameen. “Strong literacy skills are required every day, be it at work or to enjoy life with family and friends. “The funding will help many adult learners in our Boundary and West Kootenay region.” The funding is part of a $2.4 million investment by the provincial government into the Community Adult Literacy Program (CALP). Through CALP, local groups collaborate with a public post-secondary institution to deliver literacy training, encouraging transitions from community-based programs to post-secondary studies.

Making a difference in the Boundary CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
The Grand Forks Gazette and the Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy are collecting donations for the third annual Reach a Reader event. By making a donation to this campaign, you are supporting literacy programs in Grand Forks. Grand Forks councillors and Border Bruin hockey players, as well as Gazette staff, with be manning two locations in Grand Forks: one outside Overwaitea and one outside the Gazette office on Second Street from 11 a.m. until 5 p.m. The volunteers will be selling Gazette papers and handing out information on Columbia Basin for Literacy (CBAL) programs. Coun. Neil Krog, who is also an instructor at Selkirk College, is a strong supporter of the program. Krog is also a part of the community literacy advisory committee, a branch of CBAL. He was posted at Overwaitea last year and said it was a great experience and he was eager to help out again “It went quite well last year,” he said. “It was nice to see the amount of people that were willing to donate to the program. It was a lot of fun. Anything that promotes reading is good.” Chuck Bennett, publisher of the Gazette and Black Press Kootenay region publisher, is another strong supporter of the Reach A Reader program. “This is really a great program as the money raised locally, stays in the community is directed to literacy right here in Grand Forks,” he said. “This is an important initiative for us because we see literacy as a key issue for our communities and our newspapers.” CBAL is the Columbia Basin and Boundary region not-forprofit literacy organization. CBAL programs support seniors, adults, families, youth and children of all ages improve English, reading, writing,
numeracy, computer and workplace skills. In the Boundary region, family literacy programs aim to provide parents and caregivers with the skills needed to support their children’s literacy development. Rhyme Time is a program for parents and small children at the Hutton Strongstart Centre on Thursday mornings. Watch for future listings for Parent and Child Mother Goose and Alphabet Soup—a food and stories oriented program for parents and small children. As well, CBAL offers a number of adult literacy programs that provide adult learners with the tools and skills needed to be successful in the modern world. English as a Second Language Settlement Assistance program provides new Canadians with the fundamentals in English conversation, reading and writing. Basic computer programs offer the beginning computer user the skills needed to use computers on a daily basis. An afternoon drop-in at the Grand Forks Library every Tuesday from 2-5 p.m. is one way to access this help and will get you linked to upcoming workshops. One-to-One tutoring program helps adults who would like to improve their literacy skills. Trained volunteer tutors offer assistance based on the learner’s goals. All of the adult programs have opportunities for volunteer tutors—this is a remarkable way to give back to our community. Volunteer tutors are given 10 hours of free training, ongoing support and resources. In some cases, volunteers are working with a facilitator, however the One-to-One program is just that—one-on-one, learner to tutor. Are you interested in attending a literacy program or volunteering for a literacy program? To learn more about the programs, please visit cbal.org or contact Sheila Dobie, community literacy coordinator for the Boundary region at sdobie@ cbal.org, or cell at 250-584-4109.

Measure of Me
“Calculating a group’s intelligence with tests and exams alone is like measuring temperature with a tablespoon”
ELENA PLOTNIKOFF
Albert Einstein once said, “Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” The school system judges a student’s natural ability to do specific things and makes very little provision to measure the effort that they put in. Different people have varied strengths and weaknesses. While someone finds running two kilometers in gym class a breeze, others may find the task daunting, yet they might excel at writing a five paragraph essay. Therefore, applying the same measure of evaluation to all students despite their varied skills has the potential to unfairly cause them to feel inadequate. Letter grades do not always reflect the time and energy put forward by the student. A large portion of a student’s grade is determined by how well they do on tests. Most tests however, fail to evaluate a student’s true understanding of the information. The pressure
As the year progresses, students prepare for feedback on their school work. Some teachers have already mailed home interim report cards. The question is ... How will we measure up? to do well leads students to simply memorize the material instead of making sure they fully comprehend concepts and are able to apply them.Calculating a group’s intelligence with tests and exams alone is like measuring temperature with a tablespoon. This is not to say that people who get high marks are not smart and assiduous, but students should not be forced to judge
their self-worth through such a narrow lens. There is a lot that an “A”, “C”, or “F” does not effectively portray. Grades are not a measure of intelligence or capability nor are they a direct reflection of hard work and comprehension. Although evaluation is an aspect of a person’s life that they must accept, students should not feel imprisoned by the confines of a grade.
Volume Four, Number Four
This Week in Sports TYRA REXIN The boys’ soccer team played very well at their tournament in Nakusp last weekend. They played four games and although they did not win, they fought hard in all of them. The boys’ soccer coach, Tim Carson, appreciates that the boys played their hearts out at this tournament and showed how much they care about the game. It is inspiring to see people trying their hardest at something they truly love to do! In other news, the Junior Girls volleyball team has finally acquired a coach. The brave Mr. Dunnet has stepped up to take on this role with help of a few parent and teacher volunteers. There are twenty junior girls involved in the volleyball program at GFSS.
With so many players, the people volunteering to help Mr. Dunnet, including some of our own senior girls, have been a blessing. Although the girls are thrilled to now have a team to play on, they will not be attending out of town tournaments. Mr. Dunnet will not be available for travel during weekends when tournaments are usually held, so the junior girls are planning to have an intermural league instead. The girls will practice on Monday nights and hold games against one another on Wednesday nights. Since there are twenty girls involved, it will be interesting to see the different teams that form and how they improve throughout the season.
Stepping up to the Plate GFSS Math and Physics teacher, Mr. Dunnet “stepped up” volunteering to coach the Junior Girls volleyball team. Mr. Dunnett is assisted by parents and student volunteers from the GFSS Sr. Girls team. Kudos Mr. D !!!!

SIMONE GENTRY The GFSS Sevec exchange students arrived back in Grand Forks last Saturday, October 5, after spending a week in Magog, Quebec. During the trip, enthusiastic GFSS students attended classes with their “twins”
at Ecole LaRuche and had a potluck dinner presented by the host families.They spent a day in Quebec City where they went on a walking tour to the Musee de la Civilization, saw the Artists’ Quarter and Gallerie de la Capital at a large mall.
To finish off the day, they had dinner out before returning to Magog. Now back in Grand Forks, the students are telling their classmates all about what they did on the trip, Tales abound about how amazing it was and how important the cultural experience was.

Quote of the Week: Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names. – John F. Kennedy (1917 - 1963)
Joke of the Week: A lady wanted to board her horse. The first farmer she asked said he would keep it at $25 a day, plus he would keep the manure. She thought that was too high and went to another farmer. His price was $20 per day plus he would get to keep the manure. Then she went to a third farmer who asked just $5 a day. The lady asked, “Don’t you want to keep the manure?” The farmer said, “At $5 a day, there won’t be any!”
Suicide can be the loneliest death for those left behind. Kim Cunliffe lost her son, Darin Cunliffe, to suicide three years ago. “He was incredibly happy, loving and funny, popular with everyone and involved in sports. He had a few difficulties with normal life challenges but he was just a regular teenager. He was everyone’s smile every day,” she said. “It was a complete shock. There were no signs. I still look at his photo and think that of all people, he was the least likely to do something like this. I don’t think he understood the finality of it.” The support of family and close friends helped Cunliffe even though she felt frozen, like she was putting on a mask each day. “Family and friends held me up when I couldn’t hold myself up. My other children became my strength and my purpose,” she said. “Suicide is a grief unlike any other grief. I have lost other family members but it was not like this. I felt alone, even stigmatized. I realized I needed more help, and when I heard about a grief retreat specifically for people who have lost someone to suicide, I knew I had to go.” The Sunrise Grief Retreat Society, which also holds retreats for other grief losses, is a nonprofit society which offers the retreats with professional facilitators, many of them volunteers. Cunliffe attended the four-day retreat last fall. “At first, I felt unsure and anxious but I knew it was exactly where I should be. I had so many questions and unresolved feelings. I knew I had been a good mother but I should have known, even though there were no signs. That was one of the hardest things,” she said. Barb Schimpl, one of the retreat facilitators, said grief for suicide is one of the most complicated griefs. “There can be more guilt, shame, blame and anger. There was no opportunity to say goodbye and it feels like total rejection. The survivors are left with so many unanswerable questions,” she said. Cunliffe knew that the retreat would be part of the healing that would allow her to remember her son in a healthy way, honour his life and find a way to help others. “I felt safe in this beginning of my walk

through the wilderness to find a sense of peace. I was so relieved to find that I was not alone and I keep the connections with the people I met there. Family and friends are vital but there is a completely different feeling there,” she said. “There is fear. You don’t want to make that call but it’s the best call you ever make.” She benefited from the group sessions and the expressive therapies with health professionals, as well as the massage therapy, healing touch and mindfulness meditation available to participants. “The healing touch was so amazing and powerful. I felt connected and released. It was a gift to my soul. There’s such compassion in the staff. I also liked the letter writing to the ones we had lost,” said Cunlifffe. “I’m not sure what direction I’m going at times but it’s forward with my toolbox in hand and I don’t have to walk alone.” People who are interested in attending the Sunrise Grief Retreat for those who have experienced a loss from suicide can go to www.sunrisegriefretreat.org for more information. Suicide support groups are facilitated by trained professionals and peers and offer eight weeks of weekly support meetings at no cost. “We felt there has been a need in the community and we were able to get the training this spring,” said Betty Bates, facilitator, with Sharon Durant, of the support groups. “All of us who did the training felt it was profound and that we could bring that feeling of a safe place to come and share stories and healing to the groups. Each experience is personal and people can participate at their own pace.” The groups will include expression exercises, writing and art, empathetic listening, all in a non-judgmental atmosphere. There will be information on what is normal in grief after suicide. “Suicide can be such a silent grief with so much stigma and misconception around it. Survivors can feel very alone. Sometimes they find the second year after is even harder than the first but that is individual too. “The support groups do not support professional therapy but are a healthy addition on a journey of healing. It’s a real honour to be able to offer this to the community,” said Bates. This article was published in the Sept. 9 edition of the Vernon Morning Star. It was reprinted here by request.

Bruins run out of steam in Summerland Bear Bites
Gazette file photo
The Border Bruins dropped their only game of the week 5-2 to the Steam.
CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
The Grand Forks Border Bruins lost 5-2 on the road in Summerland in their only game this week. The game saw the return of last year’s captain, Nathan Cory, but it wasn’t enough of a spark to ignite the team and propel them to a win. “It was probably one of our weaker games,” said Bruins head coach Nick Deschenes. “I don’t know if it was getting a few new players back in the line-up (Cory and forward Graham Watkins) but we didn’t come in ready to compete and earn two points.” The Bruins fell behind 2-0 after the first period after Daylan Robertson and Ryan Donaldson scored for the Summerland Steam. Max Newton put the Bruins on the board just over one minute into the second period, assisted by Dakota Little and Jackson Purvis. But Paulsen Lautard replied for the home team and restored the two-goal lead at 7:56 of that same period. Cam McLennan scored a power play marker for the Bears at 11:12 of the third period, assisted by Jeremy
McGregor and Reid Robertson, to cut the lead to one. It was all Summerland after that as Donaldson scored a pair to put the game away. Dominic Stadynk was in net for Grand Forks and stopped 24 of 29 shots. The Bruins outshot the Steam 3929. “If we would’ve connected on half our grade A scoring chances, it would have been a tie score,” speculated Deschenes. “But for us to give up five goals, it’s never a good thing. For a one-game weekend, that’s all we had to focus on.” The Bruins are back in action Tuesday in Castlegar with a game against the defending league champion Rebels. The Rebs just received high scoring winger Diego Bartlett back from a Junior A try-out. Bartlett, Castlegar’s third leading scorer last year, already has nine points in four games. “They’re going to be better,” said Deschenes. “We have to trust that we’re making strides as well.” The Bruins return to Grand Forks Arena on Oct. 12 and 13 for home games against Fernie and North Okanagan respectively.

Coach Nick Deschenes expects both new players, Cory and Watkins, to really help the squad. “Cory is a mobile defenceman,” he said of the returning captain, who was trying out for a junior A squad in (Steinbach) Manitoba. “He can rush the puck and he’s good defensively.” Now into his third season with the club, Cory brings some history with him. “He’s been around for the one-win season so it’s good to have that continuity and have someone that can relate to where the team was and where they are now,” Deschenes said. Cory was fourth last year in team scoring, and first among d-men, with three goals and 19 assists for 22 points in 44 games. Watkins played with Columbia Valley, Creston Valley and Grand Forks last year and looks to settle in with the Bruins. “He’s an 18-yearold from Calgary,” said Deschenes. “He’s got offensive ability and he can score goals. Hopefully, that’s what he brings to the table. “Like any new player, he’ll have to adjust to the speed, especially in our division. It’ll be a learning process for him, but I think he’ll come out of it an effective player.” — Lindsay

Almost 100 children attended Selkirk College’s children’s summer programming in Grand Forks and Christina Lake this summer, says the college’s continuing education coordinator. Jennifer Wetmore said this was the second year for children’s programing in the Boundary with programs that ranged from full day art camps to threeday theatre and science camps. All the instructors employed were local and brought varied experience to their respective programs. In total six camps were held. The feedback from the instructors, staff, students and the parents was positive. For more on children’s programming, call 250-442-2704.

Minor hockey registration may be down across Canada as children join less expensive sports such as soccer, but in Grand Forks registration has been steady. Ron Vautour, president of Grand Forks Minor Hockey Association (GFMHA), said they have seen drops in registration for older kids but are seeing an increase in the number of younger players. “As kids get older, hockey gets more expensive,” he said. “Plus, some older players have joined other associations in order to play at the rep. level.” GFMHA has teams at all levels, said Vautour, including junior novice, senior novice, pee wee, bantam and midget.

Shelf-ready designs for multi-utility projects are being advanced by the city in preparation for government grants forthcoming in spring. At the recent Union of British Columbia Municipalities (UBCM) conference, several Grand Forks city councilors, along with Mayor Brian Taylor and CAO Doug Allin, met with Coralee Oakes, minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development. Oakes stressed the city must be committed to asset management and to strategically delivering services to residents while promoting economic development initiatives. And, once those project designs were set, the money would potentially be accessible, said Allin.

The government of B.C. is reviewing speed limits on longer stretches of provincial highways between communities, and will be seeking public input starting this November as part of the process. Public input, along with information gathered through a technical review of provincial highways, will be considered to identify areas where speed-limit changes would be needed. A Grand Forks meeting could be set.

“Council has chosen three projects that are considered to be one,” he said. “We’re now going to make them shelf-ready. Based on what Oakes and her department said, having them ready for spring would be recommended. “We’re going to be ahead of most communities,” he added, “so we’ll be at the front of the queue when we make our application.” The three projects would include 22nd Street (Highway 3 to 78th Avenue); 68th Avenue (Kettle River Drive to 19th Street); and Third Street (Hwy 3 to Market Avenue). Multi-utility would include road, water, sewer and drainage for all three streets, said Allin. The total capital cost for design and constructing these three projects has been estimated at $2,768,000, according to city figures.

Giving thanks for Thanksgiving S itting around our bountiful spread this Thanksgiving will be a happy occasion. So where did this Canadian holiday come from? Wikipedia states that this can be traced to the coming of Martin Frobisher, a British explorer landing at the area now known as Nunavut, looking for the Northwest Passage. Plagued by storms and ice, one of his 15 ships was lost. Robert Wolfall, a minister, encouraged them all to especially give God thanks for the

they brought with them their expression of thanks including turkey, pumpkin and squash. As to why Canadians continued to celebrate this event, our Canadian government website includes cessation of wars, health of the Prince of Wales, for cessation of grievous diseases, victories over enemies, and for God’s mercies. “Blessings of an abundant harvest” were the reason after Confederation from 1872 to 1920. From 1921 to 1930 the Thanksgiving coincided with Armistice Day on Nov. 11. From 1931 to 1957 Thanksgiving was celebrated in early October “for general thanksgiving to Almighty God for blessings with which the people of Canada have been favored”.

In 1957 the Canadian government set the day of Thanksgiving to the second Monday of October and did not specify the reason by proclamation. As a Canadian today, what prompts us to celebrate? Looking back at our history and at our world today, we can be thankful that our troops have come home from active combat in Afghanistan. We can be thankful that we have elected governments federally, provincially and locally that can enact the wishes of our nation. Though it may take a long time to change the system and not please everyone, we live in peaceful conditions to do our work and enjoy our freedom. We can be thankful for a police force that keeps the peace even though the justice is slow and sometimes unfair. We can be thankful for schools that teach

I give you this one thought to keep I am with you still - I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow, I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning’s hush, I am the sweet uplifting rush, Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not think of me as gone I am with you still, in each new dawn. James & Marcella Kastrukoff Dennis, Karyn & Kayla Talarico

our children to be prepared for life even though it may take a long time for them to find their niche and purpose. We can be thankful for work that is available for everyone even though the jobs available are not always to our liking. We can be thankful for our hospitals and care workers who are ready to care for our hurts and sicknesses and for a health care system that is a safety net for all, rich and poor. We can be thankful for churches that celebrate our reasons for Thanksgiving. We can be especially be thankful as we sit around our bountiful tables with our families to give God thanks for His many mercies. “Bless the Lord, O my soul and forget not all His benefits” (Psalm 103:2).
