BC Hydro workers Lenard Bandelin and Dennis Mitchell build high voltage terminations near the Scout Island Nature Centre Thursday. The area got a hydro makeover this week with all new underground power to prevent birds from hitting power lines.
Scout Island receives hydro makeover Angie Mindus Staff Writer BC Hydro crews were busy Thursday putting the finishing touches on an ambitious improvement project at Scout Island aimed at saving birds and increasing power reliability. “This project has been in the works for a while now and we’re excited to see it through to completion,” said BC Hydro design
technician work leader Andrew Hasselaar. Hasselaar said the reason for the project is three-fold; beautification, elimination of bird mortality due to the overhead power lines and increased power reliability. “We’re looking for a system that runs itself and has little impact to the environment. That’s our goal.” The new system will see four poles and overhead power lines
replaced with 1,800 linear metres of underground duct. Swans, osprey and geese were just few of the birds impacted by the previous overhead lines, he said. Hasselaar said the project involved co-ordination between the City of Williams Lake, BC Hydro and Scout Island Nature Centre. The area in front of the nature centre and along the causeway has been seeded now that the proj-
ect is complete, and the public is asked to keep out of those areas. This is the second hydro project Scout Island has seen in recent years. In 2011 BC Hydro installed an osprey platform with great success. The platform provides a safe nesting site on top of a bare pole, to detract the birds from nesting on surrounding power poles with energized lines.

Thirty-four employers, schools attend job fair Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Midway through day one of the job fair, co-ordinator Yvonne Funk said it had been busy. “We’ve had our lulls, and then another big group arrives,” Funk said Wednesday afternoon as she visited people hosting dozens of tables in the Gibraltar Room. For two days, 34 different employers or education facilities had arrived to interact with students and members of the public interested in job and training opporunities. Bus loads of students from schools in the district attended, to learn about opportunities — both educational and careerwise, Funk said. “We sent invitations to everyone to come out.” With a pen and
paper in hand, Micheile Solomon asked TRU’s Nancy Giesbrecht some pointed questions about wages, training courses, and requirements for certain jobs. Solomon and fellow student Tianna Billyboy-Sulin are enrolled in the Cariboo Training and Education Centre’s Sage program. “We’re studying a hospitality course,” Billyboy-Sullin explained. Raymond Stump from the Anaham Reserve shook hands with David Lindley, health actions co-ordinator with the First Nations Health Authority. On Oct. 1, the First Nations Health Authority came into existence, and Lindley and Cody Caruso, health careers coordinator, were at the job fair to explain the new health authority

AN APPLE A DAY... Air purifiers are really air cleaners and won’t remove gaseous pollutants like cigarette smoke. Since particles of tobacco smoke are designed to be inhaled into the lungs, they are quite small. The best protection from second-hand smoke is to not allow smokers to smoke in your house. We tend not to run to the doctor for every little symptom but some symptoms can’t be ignored. These include the following: a persistent or high fever; shortness of breath; weight-loss that you can’t explain; flashes of light in the eyes; sudden mental changes like confusion or disorientation. If you experience any of these, see your doctor right away. If you have a sore throat, it always feels worse in the morning because your throat gets dry overnight. To soothe a sore throat, keep it moist. Suck on lozenges or hard candies to stimulate saliva production. Drinking plenty of fluids is also important. If the sore throat persists for more than a few days, see your doctor. This year’s flu vaccine will contain protection against four strains of flu virus rather than the three we are used to in the past. Called a quadrivalent vaccine, it will contain vaccine to protect against two strains of both Influenza A and Influenza B. This new vaccine promises to be more effective for people over 65. When you need information about flu shots, our pharmacists are up to date on the current knowledge.

Her table is covered in a black and red native designed blanket her students made. Pointing to the centre motif, she said it’s a house of learning based on the story of Raven. “Raven stole the light and education is like a light,” Blain said. Local resident Yvonne Duncan stopped to chat with Gary McDermott, Industry Training Authority’s director of Aboriginal Initiatives. “We are the crown agency that oversees all apprenticeship programs in B.C.” McDermott said.

Box a Week program winds down
1000 Huckvale Place (just off Midnight)
Photo submitted
Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer It is the end of an era. Last week Mackin Creek Farm confirmed it is stopping its Box a Week program. “We’re going to downsize a bit,” Rob Borsato, who runs Mackin Creek Farm with his partner Cathie Allen, said. “The box program was about a third of our gross income, and the farmer’s market in Quesnel is another player.” They are also seeking more balance in their lives, he added. “We’re not retiring yet, but we need to get a handle on things a bit.” Mackin Creek Farm is located about 45 minutes drive from Williams Lake along the West Fraser Road. For the last 18 years, close to 100 people had been receiving the boxes during a 16-week delivery period each beginning mid-June. “We tried to stay fairly close to Williams Lake, to many of the offices and businesses in town, and individual deliveries if they weren’t too far out of town,” Bob Borsato said. The intent was always to mimic what a person would have in their own vegetable garden, so the boxes changed as the season changed. “We’d start with early greens — spi-

Generally there was at least a dozen things in the weekly boxes, if not more, he added. Borasto and Allen raise chickens and pigs for limited sale, and every year they attend the Medieval Fair to sell hundreds of pounds of carrots. “We still have about 6,000 pounds of carrots in the ground, so we’ve been digging all day today,” Borsato said, adding it’s a race to beat the frost, and he’s banking on a few more weeks before the serious cold weather
sets in. He arrived in the Cariboo in the 1970s and it caught his eye. “I loved the early springs, the dry Douglas fir forests, the warm summers, and the lower winter snowfalls,” he recalled. In the mid-1980s when he met Allen they had the opportunity to purchase a piece of land and started the farm in 1988. Around the same time, they helped form the Quesnel Farmers’ Market Association and the Cariboo Organic Producers Association. By the mid-1990s their interest in growing organic produce was stronger than the local farmers’ market demands, so they began exploring marketing options. “We learned about box programs — often called CSAs — Community Supported Ag-
riculture — through the local Ministry of Agriculture office, and decided to give this a try,” Borsato said. “Essentially, it is a food guild, where members prepay for the entire season, then get a box of vegetables delivered weekly to their doorstep or place of employment.” They called it BoxA-Week, and their signature feature was the handmade wooden boxes with the logo branded on them. “We also included a newsletter with each weekly box,” he said. “It contained recipes featuring produce in the box, and a little bit of chatter about what was happening on the farm at the time, or some food-related discussion.” On Oct. 20, they will host a bulk food sale from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Mackin Creek.

Monitors to be placed in hunting ban Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer A week after announcing its plans to ban the limited entry moose hunt in the south Chilcotin, Yunesit’in (Stone) First Nation confirmed there will be monitors on the ground turning away moose hunters and ATVs. “The monitors will be placed spontaneously on either of the bridges, but specifically on weekends,” Yunesit’in Chief Russell Myers Ross said Thursday. “The Yunesit’in Council expects it to be peaceful and largely educational; it is meant to fill the void of non-regulated hunting that the province has endorsed by undermining conservation.” Moose monitors on the ground will be carrying out an educational campaign to explain the rationale, Myers Ross added. Weighing in
Chief Russell Myers Ross Tl’etinqox-t’in (Anaham) Chief Joe Alphonse said he doesn’t have a problem with the action, but it’s the timing that is a concern. “You should do it in a way that’s going to be respectful of people’s time and consideration,” Alphonse said. “There are hunters out there who have put a lot of time into planning and their own personal resources.” However, Alphonse said the south Chilcotin area has been
devastated on many fronts. Logging has impacted wildlife. “It was a mule deer hunting area for Tsilhqot’in people for many years long before European interests on the land out there. I would hate to predict how many kilometres of logging roads exist there.” Management areas 5-03, 5-04 and 5-05 are not in his caretaker area and he doesn’t have a say, but if it was Anaham’s area he said he guaranteed he would have shut everything down a long time ago. The Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations said Wednesday the Limited Entry Moose Hunt has not been cancelled. In response to the threat of blockades, the ministry has issued an alert on its Wildlife Management page: “The ministry is making every effort to resolve the immediate issue of possible
blockades by some First Nations in Management Units 5-03, 5-04 and 5-05. Although we do not know of any active blockades at this time, the situation is fluid and we ask forestry workers, backcountry recreationists and First Nations alike to be respectful to each other in the woods,” the alert said. Sgt. Mike Hacker of the Alexis RCMP detachment said Thursday there hasn’t been any communication between his office and the Yunesit’in band office, other than notice the band members are going to be starting to roll out moose monitors. “My understanding is they are in the planning processes for that particular issue,” Hacker said. “That may happen fairly soon or otherwise, I don’t know yet.” Yunesit’in also announced the band is withdrawing from the Tsilhqot’in Framework Agreement.
The TFA is a government-to-government agreement between First Nations groups and the province, originally signed in 2009, and extended into 2013. “The Yunesit’in Council addressed the community in a meeting to reflect on the latest actions that had members stop logging,” Myers Ross noted in a press release. “The TFA, as a consultation mechanism, simply did not work for our community,” he said. “Our community had much higher expectations. We found that there were too many problems from the actual referral process, the timelines, the community engagement, the lack of digestible information, and the method of decision-making. There were attempts to change aspects of it internally, however, to many members, it has lost legitimacy and it is important to recognize this and
turn away from this path.” Band Councillor Gabe Pukacz said the band always knew it would have to review the TFA with the community. “As council, we signed the TFA reluctantly early this year to see if more change could come about,” Pukacz said. “Our members tell us the concerns of the water, wildlife and plants, but it seems the process runs as status quo with only minor changes. “Our community has to find a path that protects the land and a process that reflects our vision.” Weighing in on the band’s decision Alphonse said the band cannot just announce it is not a part of the TFA. “They are locked in for this year. At the end of the TFA until we sign another agreement.” A better statement would have been that they aren’t prepared to sign another TFA, he suggested.

Thanks for the little things Last week, I was waiting for inspiration for a column. You have to wait for the idea to come, you can’t force it. My problem was that I had been thinking this weekend was Thanksgiving and maybe that should be my topic. Now, nothing else is coming in but Thanksgiving. Playwright Noel Coward explains, “Writing is easy, get a pen and paper and start to think very hard. After a while, drops of blood appear on your forehead and the words come shortly after.” I decided to get my mind off it and go grocery shopping. It is a cool fall day, but on the weekend I bought a new lined jacket and it seems perfect for the day. I see the gas prices have dropped so I decide to fill up. A full tank still comes to $100, but I have my pensions and some part-time work so I can afford the gas as it fluctuates up and down. Still nothing comes to help with the column. In the grocery store I meet a buddy who has been struggling with health issues. He’s on the mend but still has a way to go. He has had a tough year financially and emotionally as well. I have been able to keep my weight down and keep active and I feel pretty good. Too many guys I retired with are either sick or gone. I guess I’m lucky.
I fill up the cart with things I need and some I don’t need. There is a great price on turkeys today. I will probably get a couple of invites for Thanksgiving dinner, maybe I can write about family gatherings but I’ve already done that. I will probably take my mom over to my sister’s for dinner, or my daughter is a great cook and always has a big meal. On top of that I always buy my own small bird to cook so I’ll have something here at home to pick on. No ideas for the column yet. On the way home, the wind and rain have picked up, and as I pull in the driveway I’m glad I put the new roof on last spring and fixed the gutters. Lots of storms to come and nobody likes a leaky roof. I sit down at the computer. My thoughts have been all over the place. Food in the fridge, money in the bank, warm clothes, good health, reliable transportation, friends and family close by, warm and dry shelter and maybe two Thanksgiving meals. All this running through my mind, but no inspiring thoughts about Thanksgiving. The answer is close, but I can’t put my finger on it. What if I’m looking for a big answer to the big picture when all I really have to do is get down on my knees and say thanks for all the little things? Happy Thanksgiving. - Black Press
On the job hunt

Micheile Solomon and Tianna Billyboy-Sulin participate in a scavenger jobs hunt during the Williams Lake Jobs Fair held Wednesday and Thursday at the Gibraltar Room.
The wind blows on everyone no matter who we are Provincial Court Judge Elizabeth Bayliff said something in Williams Lake a few weeks ago that has stuck in my heart ever since. She was sentencing a local 30-something-aged man to serve a seven-day jail sentence. The man struggles with alcohol. Recently he’d been discovered by police passed out on the floorboards of a shack behind a pub. The description of him lying there in the shack was heartbreaking, Bayliff told him. “You are worth so much more

than that,” she said, looking directly into his eyes. Growing up our mom always said to us: “There but for the grace of God go I.” It was her way of saying we shouldn’t judge anyone. That we should not think less of anyone,
no matter what. “You don’t know their story,” she insisted. And mom probably grew up hearing the same message from her mom. One time during summer vacation in Vancouver, I told my Granny I’d seen women prostitutes on Davies Street. My tone caused her to beetle over in her wheelchair, gently grab my arm, and look at me intently. “You are not better than those women,” she told me. “You don’t know why they are on the streets.”
I was 10 years old. I knew she was right and was grateful she’d pointed that out to me. A decade later when I moved to Winnipeg from Nelson where I grew up, I remember laughing the first time the wind blew on me while I was standing on that famous corner of Portage and Main. It blew on everyone, no matter who they or we were, I realized. This morning I read that being grateful helps us face the day more readily. It helps because it makes us realize we are not totally self-made
and totally self-sufficient on this earth. As I look forward to celebrating my 53rd day of the turkey with my children and spouse, I hope I will remember to be grateful. It’s an art and a challenge and it does take years. People will say they don’t like receiving, they only like to give. But when we let people give, we help make them feel worth something. That day in court Bayliff gave that man something I hope made a difference.

B.C. marijuana referendum misguided I won’t be signing the “Sensible B.C.” petition to demand a provincewide referendum on marijuana enforcement. You shouldn’t either, and here are a few reasons why. Let me start by saying I’ve been calling for legalization and regulation of pot for 20 years, to conserve police resources and reduce violent crime. Our war on drugs is a failure even for heroin and cocaine, and marijuana is obviously much easier to produce. But the current effort led by Dana Larsen, B.C.’s clown prince of pot, is not only misguided, it’s dangerous. The petition does not propose legalization. It seeks to impose a provincial law that would stop B.C. police from using any resources for simple possession charges. This would create a loophole in the federal drug law. So what would that do? It would protect otherwise innocent customers of the current illegal marijuana trade, while leaving the criminal distribution business in place. For a closer look at that, I recommend reports from the Surrey Six murder trial now underway, or the upcoming case against three accused assassins of Red Scorpion gangster Jonathan Bacon in Kelowna. Larsen’s loony law would tie police hands when they are trying to hold someone on a lesser charge while they search for evidence of something nastier. This is a source of many sim-
B.C. Views

ple possession charges today. Police chiefs have a different idea, asking for the option of treating simple possession as a ticket offence to keep the court time to a minimum. Both of these notions have the same obvious flaws. They don’t deal with sales to minors and they divert no revenue to government, leaving most of that in the hands of criminal dealers who buy cocaine, guns and fancy cars. Colorado and Washington have gone the legalization route, so far without interference from their federal government. These states need money, and they don’t need more crime or ill-considered hippy gesture politics. Meanwhile in Ottawa, Health Canada is trying to convert a poorly regulated mess of smallscale medical marijuana licences to a free-market system of commercial producers. Local politicians tore a strip off Health Canada officials at
their recent convention, after years of warnings that federal licences were scattered at unknown locations, often used as fronts for larger grow-ops. Mission Coun. Dave Hensman predicted that when a grower gets a letter cancelling his licence, he’s more likely to roll up a big joint with it than to shut down. Burnaby Coun. Nick Volkow suggested the response would echo an old Cheech and Chong routine: “Dave’s not here, man.” Here’s another reason not to support Larsen: the conduct of his organizers. One fellow set up a petition
table at, of all places, the Terry Fox Hometown Run in Port Coquitlam. After scrawling “pot cures cancer” on the table, he proceeded to interrupt speeches by cancer survivors and the run itself by yelling the same false slogan. You can imagine how people with terminal cancer and their loved ones would react. Some would know that marijuana may alleviate side effects of chemotherapy, just as it can ease suffering for some multiple sclerosis patients. But the suggestion of a cure is as cruel as it is moronic.
Larsen’s “cannibus” has been rolling around B.C., reaping uncritical media coverage. It even blundered into the recent Walk for Reconciliation in Vancouver, an event to mark the end of federal hearings into the effects of residential schools on aboriginal children. I wouldn’t support the Larsen bunch for anything, unless it involved them looking for jobs. Just say no.

Fortunate to live in such a great province, country We are so fortunate to live in this wonderful country and now with Thanksgiving this weekend it is perhaps time to think about all of those things we have in Canada. We have lots of fresh water, fresh air and food for our tables. We have good government, we live in a progressive land of many cultures and in this country we are free — free to work, walk, wiggle and live where we want in this incredible land that only inhabits 30-plus million people. How fortunate we are. We have a good health system, many have jobs and a country with a gazillion beautiful landscapes. Thanksgiving Day in Canada

is linked to the European tradition of harvest festivals. A common image seen at this time of year is a cornucopia, or horn, filled with seasonal fruit and vegetables. The cornucopia, which means “Horn of Plenty” in Latin, was
a symbol of bounty a plenty in ancient Greece. Turkeys, pumpkins, ears of corn and large displays of food are also used to symbolize Thanksgiving Day. It is also a time to be thankful for all that we posses in this great country of Canada, our beautiful B.C. province and, of course, this most fantastic Cariboo-Chilcotin area. The first Thanksgiving in this country goes back to the 1578 voyage of Martin Frobisher when he and his crew were searching for the northwest passage. A minister on the trip urged all to be thankful to God for their strange and miraculous deliverance in these so dangerous
places, like Frobisher Bay. It is good to be thankful — not only at this Thanksgiving time of the year, but each and every day. Happy Thanksgiving to you. May your turkey dinner have lots of gravy. *** A group of prominent Canadian women, including author Margaret Atwood and former prime minister Kim Campbell, is lobbying the federal government to rewrite the lyrics to O’ Canada to make our national anthem gender neutral. In particular, the group wants to replace the line, “in all thy sons command” with “in all of us command.” “The words, ‘All thy sons
command’ in the English national anthem suggests that only male loyalty is being invoked,” Atwood says. “Restoring these lyrics to gender-neutral is not only an easy fix to make our anthem inclusive for all Canadians, but it’s also long overdue.” What will they want next? Perhaps they will ask to take ‘God’ out of O’Canada? Please, stop this nonsense. “Son” has more than one meaning and the meaning in our anthem fits all of the above. It is gender neutral. I’m sure these feminist types would like to have everything to suit their imaginations. Ken Wilson is a freelance columnist for the Tribune/Advisor.

Hospital auxiliary buys bassinets for hospital The Cariboo Memorial Hospital Auxiliary purchased four bassinets for the second floor nursery recently. The bassinets were purchased at a cost of $1,500 each. Sara Evans, second floor manager and Carmen Sellars, RN are delighted with
the new bassinets as they are easier to maintain, reports auxiliary member Cynthia Wilson. “They have larger wheels for more mobility, a locked cupboard for the new mom’s possessions and a large, comfortable plastic cot for the new baby,” Wilson says.
She says the hospital auxiliary was started in 1923, two years before the first public hospital was established. The women of the auxiliary raised money for a bolt of sheeting and pillowcase material to sew bedding required when the hospital opened.

Everyone to blame for decline in moose population Editor: I am not a moose hunter myself, but I have concerns about the unregulated hunting of moose by First Nations. I listen to the First Nations people claim that the moose are part of their culture and tradition and blame the white man for the decline in the moose pop-
ulation, when I think they must share some of the blame. The moose are shot year around by First Nations driving around in pick up trucks using high powered rifles. Some of these individuals are mostly white but have status, and are not very traditional in my opinion. Just because you can does not mean you
should. There are far too many people now for all of us to live as hunter gathers. The moose moved into this country in the 1930s and there were none before that. My father told the story of a Toosey man who shot one of the first moose to show up in the area and the elders would not eat it as
they did not know what it was. I think we should get rid of the feral horses that are in the same meadows competing with the moose. Yes, I know they don’t always eat the same thing, but sometimes they do. These horses are not native to this country or even North America.
They were brought here by white men. Feral horses are an invading species and I see no beauty in a herd of scrub feral horses. I would suggest putting one feral horse in your freezer every winter — it would help both the land and the moose.

Letters about man-made climate change fuelling ignorance Editor: I am writing in response to a letter, Global warming nothing but Environmental Hysteria, not as a critique of its contents but as a critique of the Tribune/Advisor’s decision to publish this letter. Climate change being caused by humans is no longer a debate. This has been proven by sound peer reviewed science. The publishing of information that states otherwise is extremely misleading
to the public, sowing doubt among society and delaying government action. Comparatively, the scientific discussion of climate change is very similar to that of the dangers of cigarette smoking. Lest we forget the presence of oppositional science to the negative health effects of smoking. Scientific studies with such quotes as “tobacco does not invariably lead to progressive physical dependence” and that “tobacco has

not been proven to be injurious to health” were present. The latter of which was stated by “scientist” until 1999. Nonetheless, finding a letter to the editor spouting this science in 1999 would be hard to come by. We knew better by this time. Reading letters to the editor concerning climate change not being caused by humans is analogous to having a pregnant friend smoke while stating that they are “trying to keep their
baby weight down” or the Sears catalogue selling heroin syringes for IV drug users. It just doesn’t happen anymore because sound peer-reviewed science has demonstrated the detriments of doing so and government action has followed. I believe in freedom of speech but I believe more strongly in the exercise of sound judgment for the betterment of society.

CRD director quits joint committee Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer A Cariboo Regional District director said her decision to stop attending joint committee meetings is not a sudden one. “It’s been coming on for many months,” said CRD Area D Director Deb Bischoff Wednesday. “If people actually came to the meetings and saw what was going on they would have a clearer understanding. People don’t attend the meetings, and I understand why. Half the time they don’t know they are going on and people have busy lives.” At its Sept. 25 meeting the Central Cariboo Joint Committee discussed a letter that
Area D Director Deb Bischoff Bischoff sent to two board members alerting them she intends to withdraw herself and Area D from the committee and all its functions. Bischoff said she doesn’t make decisions lightly. “If Area D people want to talk to me I do make myself avail-
able. If they had concerns and were at the town hall meeting in Wildwood on Saturday they didn’t say anything.” Williams Lake city Coun. Ivan Bonnell said Bischoff ’s decision creates a situation where city council will be “hog-tied.” As a member of the joint committee Bonnell raised concerns about Bischoff ’s decision at the regular council meeting Tuesday. “It speaks to how joint committee functions and our memorandum of understanding in terms of reference for the structure,” Bonnell said. “If one of those two directors don’t show up or don’t agree it
stops the whole process,” Bonnell said. Bonnell made a motion that council discuss joint committee terms of reference and memorandum of understanding at a future committee of the whole meeting. Council endorsed the motion unanimously. “The joint committees are established to deal with items the city and CRD fund jointly,” CRD Chair Al Richmond explained. “The process will continue, but I think it’s unfortunate if someone isn’t there from Area D.” Recommendations coming out of the committee go forward to the CRD board and city council for
ratification, however, Richmond said while Bischoff would have agendas and minutes, she would not have the benefit of the discussions if she chooses not to attend. “The joint committee provides an opportunity to discuss things in detail and come forward with strong rationale,” he added. “I think it’s regrettable if director Bischoff chooses to withdraw, but certainly that would be at her discretion.” In September Bischoff also announced she does not intend to run in the 2014 local government elections, noting she feels after six years it will be time for some new blood.
New generators support infrastructure Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer City council has approved the installation of two standby generators to the tune of $248,000, excluding GST. However, Mayor Kerry Cook said the approved bid comes under the original budgeted amount of $325,000. The generators will be used for the sewer lagoons in the river valley and the Midnight booster station. Normally the city relies on B.C.

change becoming more frequent, it is prudent the city take steps to mitigate disruptions in power. Currently the city has standby generation at one of its sewage lift stations. Standby generators are a provincial requirement for all
new lift stations and it is highly recommended that existing facilities have standby generation as well. While the city owns a portable generator, it is only capable of providing power to one station at a time, the report noted. The city received three proposals for the project. Wynker Electronic and Controls Ltd. for $248,000, McKay Electric Ltd. for $297,370 and Bergevin Electrical Contracting for $483,000. “All three proposals met specifications,” Felker noted in her report.

Take Time To Give Thanks Up until this week I thought our Canadian Thanksgiving holiday was simply a copy from the USA. However, that is not the case. Thanksgiving celebrated in Canada can be traced back to the 1578 voyage of Martin Frobisher from England in search of the Northwest Passage. This was Frobisher’s third voyage to what is today the Frobisher Bay area of Baffin Island now part of Nunavut. His intent was to start a small settlement and he came with a fleet of 15 ships but lost one in the ice along with most of the building material which destroyed plans for a settlement. The expedition was plagued by ice and freak storms which at times scattered the fleet. On meeting together again in Frobisher Bay, Robert Wolfall, a learned man, appointed by her Majesty to be their preacher, suggested in a sermon that they be thankful to God for their strange and miraculous deliverance. In response, they celebrated what might be called the first Canadian Thanksgiving. Years later, French settlers having crossed the ocean and arrived in Canada with explorer Samuel de Champlain in 1604, also held huge feasts of thanks. They even gladly shared their food with their First Nations neighbors. After the Seven Years’ War ended in 1763 when New France was handed over to the British, the citizens of Halifax held a special day of Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving days did not occur every year until after the American Revolution when refugees
PARSONS PEN
BY CAMERON JOHNSTON who remained loyal to Great Britain moved from the USA to Canada. They brought customs of the American Thanksgiving to Canada including turkey, pumpkin, and squash. After centuries of thanksgiving celebrations on January 31, 1957, the Parliament of Canada proclaimed: A Day of General Thanksgiving to Almighty God for the bountiful harvest with which Canada has been blessed, to be observed on the 2nd Monday in October. As I reviewed thanksgiving history both in Canada and the USA, it is clear that both come out of extreme and often complex difficulties. A group surviving a serious disaster decided to return thanks to God for blessings in
spite of their challenges and loss. Adversity somehow brings out the best in human nature and it is not uncommon to witness individuals after great loss giving thanks for deliverance and expressing hope in a renewed future. You see this after floods, fire and a variety of natural and other disasters. Life is difficult on this planet for everyone. It is so easy for us humans to spotlight the negative. My observation is that seeing the positive, even in difficult circumstances, is always better than dwelling on the adverse. As you focus on thankfulness this weekend take some time to return thanks first alone and then with some friends and family. We all have something for which we can be thankful, if we dig a bit. Let us determine to not let fears real or imaged rob us of the joy of our blessings. Recall some current blessings, be specific and look for the positive. The Biblical writer Paul, who was no stranger to dangers and difficulties including people who were out to kill him, wrote this,“Give thanks to God no matter what circumstances you find yourself in.” 1Thessalonians 5:18. In Canada we have so much to be thankful for, with God we have everything needed so we can simply relax and trust. I am so thankful for the God option each and every day. Have you exercised your trust God option and allowed him into your life? If not, consider doing it now with thankfulness.

Mexican Fiesta, ethnic dinner theme All the spice and sunshine of a Mexican Fiesta will burst forth like a colourful pinnate at the Sacred Heart Church’s annual ethnic dinner and auction coming up Saturday, Oct. 19. Della Rauch from True Foods, who provided the fine fare for the Evening in Paris theme last year, will be pulling out the stops on the Mexican Fiesta theme for this year’s dinner. “We are excited to
have her back this year,” says event chair Leigh Pinette. Appetizers include tacos and nachos with homemade guacamole and salsa. The main course ramps up the taste buds with chicken enchiladas, adobe pork loin, various salads, including Mexican black bean salad, spanish rice, calabacitas con questo (zucchini with garlic, tomatoes, shallots and cheese), and corn bread.
The dessert selection includes Mexican wedding cookies and Kahlua mousse. “Vegetarian appetites will be satisfied as
well,” says event organizer Leigh Pinette. Funds raised by the dinner and auction will help to support the literacy program at Sacred Heart Elementary School. “Many generous businesses from the community have donated products and baskets for the auctions,” Pinette says. Bigger items on the live auction this year include a mountain bike, a get-a-way for two at Sun Peaks, a
three-hour plane ride around the region for four people, plus an area rug, jewellery, and a custom, hand-crafted wooden rocking horse. The Sacred Heart ethnic dinner is a tradition that goes back more than 20 years in the community. “The dinner wouldn’t be the success it is without the support of the community,” Pinette says. Tickets are available at United Carpet and Sacred Heart School.

Turkey lunch Sunday in Boitanio Park People in need will be able to enjoy a turkey lunch in Boitanio Park Sunday thanks to the efforts of Sacred Heart Church’s St. Vincent de Paul Society. For several years now the society has provided a free lunch in the park on Sundays. The lunch this Sunday won’t be a sit-down turkey dinner, but it will include turkey soup and turkey sandwiches with cranberry dressing, says society president Lynn Paterson.
She says the society volunteers have two turkeys which they are cooking up specially for the lunch which starts at 12 noon and is usually finished by 12:30 p.m. She says they have 45 to 55 regulars who enjoy the society’s Sunday lunches. After everyone has had an opportunity to have a first serving, she says people can come back for seconds if there is enough food. If there is still food left over, she says people are invited to take some

home. If there is still food left after that, it goes back to Sacred Heart Church for redistribution. Normally she says the society holds a food bank bag day in the Sacred Heart Church basement on Mondays from 1 to 3 p.m. However, this Monday being Thanksgiving, she says that event will be cancelled, until the following Monday.

Film club screens Love is All You Need Krista Liebe Special to Tribune/Advisor Fall is upon us with all of its beauty. We are so fortunate to live in such a beautiful area where we really can fully experience all of the seasons. But I am not to talk about this, I am to tell you about the Williams Lake Film Club’s next film tonight. Love Is All You Need (121 min.) is the title of film Tuesday, Oct. 15 at 7 p.m. in the Gibraltar Room. Sounds quite sappy, but the film delivers a lot more than the occasional sappiness. After all, it is directed by Golden Globe and Oscar winning filmmaker Susanne Bier, the main actors are Bierce Brosnan and Trine Dyrholm, and it is a Danish, Swedish, German, Italian coproduction. If you are familiar with Danish films you know that they always have an edge to them. Sometimes too much so, Love Is All You Need is one of the

The Williams Lake Film Club is showing Love is All You Need tonight at the Gibraltar Room. softer ones. It tells the story of an Englishman living in Denmark, a welloff widower, lonely and middle-aged, and a Danish hairdresser hoping to finally have beaten breast cancer. Her husband has just left her for a younger woman and her daughter is getting married in Italy. At the airport, on her way to Italy, she literally bumps into
the man, Pierce Brosnan, who is also on his way to Italy to attend the wedding of his estranged son. And that is all I am going to tell you of the plot. The film is a look into dysfunctional families and the many secrets we all hold, trying to avoid confrontation because it is much easier to pretend everything is okay. It is a romantic and yet sad journey that
takes you through the pain and determination of a character fighting to stay alive in every sense of the way. Triny Dyrholm is a revelation as the main character, such a free spirit and determined optimist. She is the perfect counterpoint to the brooding self-absorbed Pierce Brosnan. All of the roles are cast very well and really pull you into the
story. And then there is the scenery. We see some beautiful shots of Copenhagen, but it is Italy which takes your breath away. The film was shot in Sorrento, Palermo and the Bay of Naples and I am sure you will want to pack your suitcases immediately. The film calls itself a romantic comedy but it really is more a romantic drama/comedy. You will laugh, you might wipe away a tear or two, and in all of this you realize once again that all families have real problems, not just your own. After the film we will serve refreshments and hope you will socialize for a while, meet your friends, make new ones, and even discuss the film. Back-doors open at 6:30 p.m. Admission is $9 regular, $8 for members (memberships will be available at the door), and $6 for seniors and students, HS and TRU.

Women’s Institute working for change Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer It was 1967. A group of women, gathered in Verna Dennis’s kitchen at Lyne Creek, decided to form a Women’s Institute Chapter. “We met for years in Lyne Creek, but meet at the Seniors Activity Centre in Williams Lake now,” said Dennis, who has been president for 20 years. Last Saturday women from around the Cariboo met for the annual B.C. Women’s Institute Rally, held at St. Andrew’s United Church. Re p r e s e n t a t i v e s came from chapters in Dragon Lake, Hixon, Kersley, Horsefly, Springhouse, 100 Mile House and Watch Lake. Dennis said the B.C. Women’s Institute first began more than 100 years ago when a woman moved to Victoria from Ontario. Back in Stoney Creek, Ont. the organization had got its start when the baby of Adelaide Hoodless died after drinking unpasteurized milk.
Monica Lamb-Yorski photo
Lyne Creek Women’s Institute president Verna Dennis has been at the helm for 20 years and says she will give up the post this year. The Farmer’s Institute was already meeting, so Hoodless asked someone from the department of agriculture to speak to a group of women about new methods of dairy farming. “They agreed to come and both the Farmer’s Institute and the Women’s Institute made resolutions to government asking that all milk being sold in Ontario be pasteurized,” Dennis said. Since then, the WI has continued the practice of making
resolutions. Lines on the sides of the highway and photographs on driver’s licenses were two of the resolutions put forward. More recently they’ve advocated retired school buses be painted a different colour so no one can pretend to be a school bus driver. They have concerns that more land be preserved for agriculture as well. Ruth Kacher of 100 Mile House has been the district board president for six years
and said she joined her local chapter in 1977 to do something away from her family. “I needed something and it clicked,” she said. As is the case with many organizations, recruitment is the biggest problem. Provincially, the B.C. Women’s Institute was instrumental in starting Children’s Hospital in 1923 and the original Queen Alexander Hospital for Children in Victoria. “We advocated,” Kacher said. “We’ve
had quite an extensive history across the country and province.” Jackie Martin of Springhouse reminded the WI advocated for coloured beer bottles so they didn’t reflect the sun and start fires. The first home economic classes were also a result of the WI’s efforts, recalled Karin Forbes of Lyne Creek. “They said if you educate a woman, you educate a family,” Martin chuckled. Dennis said local women have made layettes for women from out of town who end up giving birth in Cariboo Memorial Hospital, and they knit caps for newborns. Local women have also contributed to a provincial effort to make pillowcases for patients in Children’s Hospital. “They use them to transfer their treasures when they move within the hospital,” Kacher explained.

Hlokoff second at Silver State Classic Greg Sabatino Staff Writer Sporting a rebuilt supercharged engine, Nimpo Lake’s Ted Hlokoff continued his annual pilgrimage in his 2002 Dodge Viper to Ely, NV. to race the Silver State Classic Challenge Open Road Rally in September. “The world champion, Jim Perutto’s race car, beat me by five miles per hour,” Hlokoff said, adding he finished second in the Standing Mile Shootout at 180 mph. “I didn’t realize the first sweeping, long corner was so sharp. “There were a couple of corners I was listening for the sound of squealing tires as I went around the corners and being an actual road there are bumps in corners. When you’re tight around a corner at 164 miles per hour and hit a bump … it can get very
exciting.” In third place in the Standing Mile Shootout was a Corvette ZR1, Hlokoff said, at 174 mph, with another ZR1 finishing fourth at 170 mph. “We ran in the 145 mph class but didn’t finish well,” Hlokoff said. “My navigator was confused and couldn’t read the mile markers while flashing past at 164 mph for 10 miles — my supercharged Viper got nearly 12 miles per gallon at those speeds.” In May Hlokoff finished first at 148 mph in the Halfmile Shootout. The Silver State Classic Challenge is a stretch of 90 miles on Route 318 through Nevada where more than 200 drivers from around the world converge to race the public highway. The SSCC began in 1988 and runs every May and September.
The Men’s Recreational Basketball season runs from October to March, on Wednesday and Sunday evenings, 7 to 9 p.m. Games are held in the Western Campus gym (CSS). Pickup play begins Oct. 2. Everyone aged 14 and older is welcome. To participate or for more information call Martin Kruus at 3926664.

The Northland Dodge Northern Female Cougars finished with a win, a tie and a loss over the weekend at a tournament in Surrey. The Cougars, formerly the Prince George Female Cougars, are one of six teams in the BC Hockey Female Midget AAA League. “Our zone is from 100 Mile House north and we are based out of Prince George,” said team manager Scott Forrest. “[Our roster has] seven players from Prince George, three from Williams Lake and Chetwynd, two from Quesnel and one each from Kitimat, Terrace, Smithers, Houston and Fort St. John.” Williams Lake’s Chantelle BeadmanRolph, a returning player with the Cougars, plus Victoria Byer and Tessa Hare are currently billeting, going to school and playing hockey in Prince George for the
It was encouraging from a coaching standpoint to see the effort the team put forward over the weekend.” - Northern Cougars manager Scott Forrest Cougars. On the weekend the Northern Cougars fell short in its opener, 2-0, to the Kootenay Wildcats. After two scoreless periods and the Northern Cougars dominating the play Kootenay scored its first goal at the 10-minute mark of the third period after a scramble in front of the net. The Northern Cougars kept the pressure on outshooting Kootenay 36-9, but couldn’t beat the Wildcats’ netminder.
Kootenay added an empty-net goal late for the 2-0 win. In its second game the Northern Cougars faced the North Coast Avalanche. The Cougars, once again, dominated on the shot clock with a decisive 34-12 advantage but, again, the team had a difficult time finding the back of the net in a 2-2 tie. The Northern Cougars’ third and final game of the weekend was against the Vancouver Island Hurricanes. “This was a back
and forth game with excellent chances at both ends of the rink — the Cougars again outshooting [the Hurricanes] 26-15,” Forrest said. The Cougars, with a 2-1 lead late in the third period, added an empty-netter to seal the deal in a 3-1 win. “Overall this was a successful weekend getting three of six points,” Forrest said. “It was encouraging from a coaching standpoint to see the effort the team put forward over the weekend. “With some luck and capitalizing on a few more chances the team could have taken six points.” Currently the Northern Cougars sit third in its league standings with three wins, one loss and two ties. The Cougars next home games are coming up Oct. 2527 in Prince George against the Fraser Valley Phantoms.

Naturalists host pot-luck supper The Williams Lake Field Naturalists will hold their fall social and pot-luck supper on Friday, Oct. 18 starting at 6 p.m. at the Scout Island Nature Centre. Members and nonmembers are welcome to attend. Bring a dish to share and be ready to enjoy good conversation and a short armchair trip to Spain. Following the dinner new members Paula Laita and Jon Gaztelumendi from Basque Country in Northern Spain will share their experiences travelling in Spain. Their presentation about birding in Spain is called Transport to Spain: A Paradise for Bird-
ers and Wildlife Enthusiasts. Spain has a wide range of ecosystems and landscapes due to its variation in the local geography and topography and the diverse climates present in many regions. The proximity of the different habitats, especially in migration corridors, leads to a rich mixture of bird species. The Williams Lake Field Naturalists operate Scout Island Nature Centre. This primarily volunteer work includes the creation and maintenance of trails and wildlife habitat. They also sponsor nature education programs, bring in

New city street art banners selected Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer City council endorsed a new set of art banners for the
city on Tuesday evening. The Branding the City with Art street banner project was initiated by the Com-
munity Arts Council of Williams Lake with the help of a $14,000 B.C. Creative Communities grant, and smaller

grants from the city and Williams Lake Central Business Improvement Area, says arts council vicepresident Marg Evans. The project was also endorsed by the Central Cariboo Arts and Culture Society. Evans says Liliana Dragowska applied for the creative communities grant on behalf of the arts council last January and about a dozen artists responded to the call for submissions which closed on Friday, July 12. The selection committee narrowed the field down to five scenes reflecting the four seasons and a positive image for Williams Lake that were endorsed by council Tuesday. One colourful banner reflects flowers, trees and hills sur-
rounding Williams Lake; another a gleeful winter tobogganing scene; another a stained glass style collage of a mountain biking scene; another a modernistic design of snow, sky and trees that appears to be in early spring as snow gives way to puddles on a bright sunny day. The other selection is of horses frolicking in a green meadow as leaves begin to turn bright fall colours. The winning artists, Beth Holden, Linda Purjue, Lindsay Neufeld, Liz Derksen, and Simone Benjamin will each receive $150 for their designs, plus a printed banner of their design, and recognition by city council and local media.

Five artists selected for lamppost art project Continued From Page A22 The banner designs will be printed on a light reflecting Dacron product
called Echotex which is made from 65 per cent new material and 35 per cent recycled material in the form of PET bottles. A total of 180 ban-
ners will be printed and placed on light standards throughout the city primarily on Oliver Street, Highway 97 South and on the section of
Mackenzie Avenue in front of the Stampede Grounds. Evans says the city’s old art banners that have been in place since 2008 will be recycled into re-usable cloth shopping bags, with left over bits being made into flags by the Boys and Girls club.
The recycling project is initiated by the Waste Wise program of the Cariboo-Chilcotin Conservation Society which, Evans says has been a member of the arts council for about 10 years. She says Lora Fairbrother, a local seamstress, is sewing the bags and engag-
ing children at the Boys and Girls Club in making use of the left over scraps for more projects. She says proceeds from the sale of the recycled shopping bags will be shared by the local not for profit groups.
“The old banners, as we discussed, are going to reappear as wonderful Banner Bags in various sizes,” Evans says, “and reduce the plastic bags going to our landfill, money saved for other sustainable initiatives!”

There’s always next year Many famous gardens are referred to by name, starting with the Garden of Eden. Some are named for their location such as Sissinghurst, others simply for the gardener as in Monet’s gardens while still more are named because the description fits such as Sage Mountain, Rosemary Gladstar’s famous herbal retreat in Vermont. I always smile when I see names posted like Growing Concern, Garden of Eaten’ or the oft used Garden Of Weeden. Serenity, Green Tangle or Fairy Lane are nice names too. However, if I were brazen enough to give my own garden a title the letters on the sign would probably read “Next Year.” Lord knows, I say those words often enough while tending the plants and soil. In an area that gets — on average — 85 frost free days, this year we were granted 120. Us! The ones in a frost pocket! The ones who always get both a late frost in the spring and an early one come fall. Some years we have only made 45 days between frosts. I don’t ever remember getting four straight months without the temperature dipping below zero before and I have lived here for half a century.
Slice of Life
with Shannon McKinnon
Of course, that doesn’t mean it hasn’t happened, just that I don’t remember if it ever did. If I wasn’t worried it was the result of global warming, I’d be delighted. Of course, this was also the year I gave up on wasting space on winter squash, sweet potatoes and other long-season heatlovers that always get slapped down with frost before producing anything worth eating. Ah well. Next year. Even with the long season, there were the usual hits and misses. I had a bumper crop of potatoes, beans, lettuce and kale and a decent amount of beets, carrots and strawberries. The deer ate most of the peas so next year they are going back down in the orchard with its eight foot fence. The onions were terrible and I only got a few measly garlic and shallot bulbs for my year-long effort. The raspberries grew lush with all the rain but only produced a smattering of berries. There were so few we only had enough for eating straight off the
bush, and even those didn’t taste very good. The new growth of canes look very lush and promising though, so I’m hoping for better results next year. Things in the greenhouse did pretty well. I still have tomatoes ripening, though it’s long past the time to do the final harvest and bring them in, green or otherwise. My Sweet Success cucumber lived up to its name. A single plant produced so many cucumbers we couldn’t eat them all and had to give some away. There are still a couple dangling from the vine even now and here we are in the month of October! And of course the zucchini kept its prolific reputation intact. Just like the cucumber, one lone plant gave us more zucchini than we could eat. My peppers, however, are just starting to blossom so it’s a wash for them. Next year. My leaf harvest for the compost — which you would think would be a sure thing — has come to an abrupt end before it scarcely began. Rains came and made the falling leaves a sodden mess. There are still some leaves on the trees so I haven’t lost all hope of playing with my new leaf vacuum, but it doesn’t look good. Oh, well. Next year.

At least the horse manure for the compost is a crop I can count on. I’ve hauled over 20 wheelbarrow loads out of the pasture in the last week alone. Despite the fact that the average horse produces 7.5 tons of manure a year giving me a typical yield of 15 tons annually, I have collected most of the good stuff. I don’t want the dried out sawdust textured piles that have had all the nutrients leached out of them. Instead I go for the fresh piles, the steamier the better. OK, that sounds disturbing even to me. But it’s true. It’s got to the point where I am practically rolling the wheelbarrow right up under the horses’ tails and tapping my foot. Of course, the key to safe compost is time and heat. You want the pile to heat up sufficiently to kill off any pathogens or weed seeds in the manure and then you want the worms to move in and do their thing before transferring the rich, brown, gold to the garden. Next year. Shannon McKinnon is a humour columnist and garden writer.

Actions parents can take to help children cope with stress There are numerous ways that parents can help their children with the stresses in their lives, reports Mark Thiessen School District 27 superintendent in a report he adapted from the Psychology Foundation of Canada. Be aware of your own stress and how it may be affecting others. It is not always easy to keep your stress in check in front of children, but it is very important to be aware that children are learning how to cope with life’s challenges, successes and failures by watching you. Children can be very perceptive, but life can still be confusing. Most children want to please the adults in their lives. It may be difficult for them to feel they can do that if their parents, caregivers, teachers or other adults around them are preoccupied, detached, seem sad or look like they are in a
Superintendent Mark Thiessen bad mood. Learn how to manage your own stress. Try different exercises: deep breathing, meditation, brisk walking, to help you keep your immediate symptoms of stress in check. Talk to friends, colleagues and others you trust about the ways they manage their stress. When it comes to more significant causes of stress, consider breaking your problem down into manageable bites and working through it step by step, instead of getting overwhelmed or consumed by it. You can teach your
children lifelong skills by openly demonstrating the healthy techniques you use to relax after a hard day, keep a disagreement from boiling over, or cope with loss or failure. It may take time for you to adopt healthier habits when it comes to dealing with the challenging people or events. But it is worth it when you consider that children need to be shown and taught how to effectively navigate the world. Children who develop stress-management strategies without appropriate adult support tend to opt for counter-productive ways of dealing with stress, such as hiding, lashing out, running away, sleep and eating problems, and being unresponsive. Connect regularly. Checking in with your child daily to learn about what is happening in their world, from their point of view, can
help you better understand your child. It also sends them a clear message that you love and care about them. Devote time for connecting and listening to your child. You may choose dinner time as “family time.” Or you may opt for family game night once a week. Take time often to observe your child. Their body language, facial expressions, energy level, and so on, can tell you a lot. Encourage resilience. Children who have a positive self-image and can identify, deal with and manage their stress are better prepared to roll with the punches of life. Help your child set realistic goals, cheer them on as they work to reach them, and be there to talk to when they succeed, fail, want to try again or want to strive for a new goal. One of the ways to help your child build resilience is to promote
self-regulation. This includes the ability to identify when you are starting to feel stressed and take steps to avoid being overwhelmed. Extend your “family.” Help to develop a circle of connection for your child of loving family, grandparents, friends and neighbours. Additional strategies to reduce your child’s stress: ask them, talk to them; help them find ways to calm down; deep breathing, quiet/ down time, listen to music, read; spend time with them and show them the love and affection they need with words, hugs and kisses; exercise is a great way to burn off stress; sleep is essential. Healthy food helps the body cope with stress more easily; develop routines at home, routines for before bed, morning; have fun together. Adapted from the Psychology Foundation of Canada.
New regulations proposed for pesticide use The Province is proposing revisions to the Integrated Pest Management Regulation (IMPR) to ensure cosmetic pesticides are being used safely and responsibly. These revisions will require stricter control on the sale and use of pesticides in private landscaped areas, while at the same time simplify requirements for
the sale and use of pesticides commonly considered safe. The proposed changes include the following requirements: • A licence is required in order to apply most pesticides in private landscaped areas. • Licence holders are required to employ trained pesticide applicators and practice Integrated Pest Manage-
“Homemade”, it’s our motto
Baked
ment (IPM). • Residents are to be notified when pesticides are used on private landscaped areas. • A list of pesticides considered safe for use by untrained people will be developed.
These pesticides may be sold and applied in a private landscaped area without a licence. These proposed revisions are detailed in a document at: http:// www.env.gov.bc.ca/ epd/codes/ipmr/index.

Many ways to cook Thanksgiving turkey We are so fortunate in this wonderful country of Canada. We have quality water from our taps and access to fresh food daily in our grocery stores or from farmers markets. Perhaps we take this for granted because we have so much in Canada, however, this is not the case in many places around the globe. Yes, we can give thanks for all we have in this great land, and the opportunity to choose from so many good foods, right from B.C. and Canada. What I enjoy for my Thanksgiving dinner are potatoes, yams, broccoli, peas, a side salad, and turkey with dressing and lots of gravy. Like lots of gravy. Of course a nice dressing is a must as is some fresh, finishes of Thanksgiving for food. What I like for Christmas is exactly what I outlined for Thanksgiving. There are always different subtleties involved in year to year with these dinners. The yams may be done differently, or perhaps a change in how the dressing is concocted. There are also little things you can do when you are cooking the Christmas/Thanksgiving turkey that will change up the taste, somewhat. For example, using maple syrup — a made-in-Canada maple syrup. Don’t forget to baste the turkey with some of the juices in the pan
Ken’s Country Kitchen
with Ken Wilson
while cooking. Also, it does not hurt to cook the turkey for five, six or seven hours depending on size, of course. Slow cooking allows more of the juices to stay in the bird, just like allowing the bird to rest before you ‘gobble’ it down does. It’s the same deal. It keeps more juices in the bird. I hope your Thanksgiving meal is one of thanks. I have used this recipe before and everyone who has tasted this differently cooked turkey dinner has really enjoyed the taste. When the turkey comes out of the oven all shiny and golden brown it seems almost a shame to cut it up for serving. Glazed Thanksgiving Turkey • 2 cups apple cider • 1/2 cup maple syrup • 2 tbsp fresh thyme • 2 tbsp fresh marjoram • zest of one lemon • 3/4 cup butter • 12-14 pound turkey • 2 cups onion and one cup each of carrots, celery chopped • 2 cups chicken stock along with some reserve chicken stock • 3 tbsp flour
• 1 tsp fresh thyme and 1 small bay leaf • 1 tbsp apple juice Boil apple cider and maple syrup in a heavy saucepan over mediumhigh heat until reduced to 1/2 a cup. Remove from heat and mix in half of the thyme, half of the marjoram and all of the lemon zest. Add butter and whisk until melted. Add salt and pepper to taste. Cover and refrigerate until cool. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place oven rack in lowest third of oven. Wash and dry turkey. Slide hand under skin of breast to loosen skin. Rub 1/2 cup of the maple butter mix under the skin of the breast and thighs.

RENTAL S N R U T E R OVER

SUBSTANTIAL TWO STOREY FAMILY HOME
Definitely designed “outside the box,” this handsome and substantial two-storey family home, with its extensive sundeck and large front windows, boasts a distinctive yet practical lay-out. Almost hidden at the side of the house, the covered main entrance leads into a ground-floor foyer with a spacious coat closet. To the left is a den, which — conforming to the shape of the great room above it — angles outward. The den is ideally located for a home office or studio. Also on the ground floor is a spacious unfinished basement. A three-piece bath has been roughed in, so the den could also function as a guest room. An L-shaped staircase leads to the second floor, where the great room, dining room, kitchen and morning room all flow seamlessly into one another, creating one large space for family activities and entertaining. The staircase area is open to the foyer below, circled by a curved railing. The great room features a vaulted ceiling, and light will flood through its generous windows. A three-sided fireplace separates the great room from the dining room, with an optional buffet. Separated by an eating bar-cum-island, the kitchen also boasts a vaulted ceiling, which extends over the morning room, where floor-to-ceiling windows overlook the front sundeck. The kitchen pantry will provide always-useful storage space, and the L-shaped counter configuration promises efficiency. French doors between the great room and morning room open onto the sundeck, while another door between the kitchen and morning room offers access to a covered deck, the perfect spot for year-round barbecuing. The spacious master suite, overlooking the back garden for privacy, includes a generous walk-in closet as well as an en-suite
with a tile-surrounded soaker tub, double basins and a corner shower stall. Nearby, the linen cupboard is located across the corridor from a three-piece bath, also with a double basin, that separates the second and third bedrooms. The laundry room, which includes a broom cupboard, occupies space between the third bedroom and the kitchen. A display area is attached to the corridor side of the broom cupboard. Garage space for three vehicles occupies the area under the sundeck and covered deck, and there is also room for a workshop with a built-in work bench. Exterior finishes include stucco, painted trim, decorative wooden braces at the gables and stone pillars separating the glass around the sundeck. The exterior around the den and entrance is finished in stone. This home measures 49 feet, eight inches wide, by 71 feet deep, for a total of 1,788 square feet. Plans for design 2-3-733 are available for $676 (set of 5), $766 (set of 8) and $819 for a super set of 10. Also add $30.00 for Priority charges within B.C. or $55.00 outside of B.C. Please add 7% P.S.T., 13% H.S.T. Or 5% G.S.T (where applicable) to both the plan price and Priority charges.
