Summerland received low marks for its municipal spending according to a provincial report compiled by the Canadian Federation of Independent Business. The report examined 153 municipalities in British Columbia and placed Summerland 20th from the bottom in terms of its spending practices. The report examined whether a community was able to keep spending increases at or below the rate of inflation. In recent years, Summerland has taken on some large initiatives including road improvements, the construction of a new police station and water system upgrades. Mayor Janice Perrino said tax increases have been kept modest despite these projects. In her first term as mayor, from 2008 to 2011, taxes rose by five per cent. Since 2011, taxes have risen four per cent. Increases were much higher in the 2005 to 2008 council term. She added that the costs involved in operating a municipality are increasing each year, in part because of the union pay rates. “We’ve had virtually no growth, but we’re still subject to increases,”she said. A third-party report on spending, compiled for Summerland by the Helios Group in 2011, showed Summerland’s spending was reasonable, she said. A 19–page summary of the key findings of the report can be found on the municipality’s website. Because the municipality has taken on large projects in the past few years, Perrino said the focus this year is on rebuilding the reserve funds. “You want your reserves to be able to handle emergencies,” she said. “Our tax increases are not nearly enough to cover our reserves being refilled.” The next major projects for the community are road and water upgrades in the Garnett Valley area, road improvements on a portion of Giant’s Head Road and a sidewalk extension on Prairie Valley Road. The tax burden could be alleviated if Summerland were to draw more businesses, Perrino said. “We have to do more to get growth,” she said.

Preparation urged for winter driving Motorists who have not done so already should get their vehicles ready for the winter driving season, police say. Cpl. Bruce Haley of the Summerland RCMP detachment said all-season tires will work for driving within the region, but not

for highway driving. Haley said winter tires or chains are required for mountain passes at this time of the year. Motorists also need to let their vehicles warm properly in the winter, so the windshield and windows are clear.

Quickly scraping the windshield in front of the driver is not sufficient, he added. “Give yourself time to warm up your vehicle so your windshield is clear,” he said. During snowy, icy or slippery conditions, drivers need to slow down for

the road conditions, Haley added. “The limit is the maximum, under the best road conditions,” he said. Motorists can receive a ticket for driving too fast for road conditions, even if they are travelling well below the posted limit. “People have to adjust

their driving to the weather,” Haley said. “Don’t rush when the roads are slippery or icy.” He added that the first snowy day of the winter tends to be the worst for accidents as drivers suddenly adjust to the change in road conditions.

Upgrade planned at Isintok Dam The water level in Isintok Dam will be lowered this fall and winter as the municipality seals an area around the intake structure. The repair work will be completed by the end of this year at an estimated cost of $100,000. Don Darling, director of engineering and public works for the municipality, said the leakage was dis-

covered when municipal crews were examining the pipes at the dam. If the dam fails, the effects could be catastrophic, he said. He estimates a dam failure could result in 175 lives lost, the destruction of nine bridges over Trout Creek between Isintok Lake and Summerland and damage to the bridge at Trout Creek on Highway 97.

The municipality has retained an environmental consultant who will be responsible for fish salvage and ensuring compliance with Fisheries and the Ministry of Environment requirements. Once the work has been completed, the municipality will monitor the area around the leakage to determine if further work is required.

Cell tower antenna approved An antenna will be added to the existing Telus tower on Little Giant’s Head Mountain, despite some concerns about the potential health risks. Concerns had been raised about electromagnetic radiation from the tower. Similar concerns had been raised several years earlier, when the tower was set up. Jeremy Denegar, director of corporate services for the municipality, said the health risks from the tower are low. The much greater health risks would come from the individual cellular phones, which are held close to the head when one is on a call. He added that a public consulta-

tion session hosted by Rogers Telecommunications went above and beyond what is required. Coun. Orv Robson said he could not see substantial concerns about the additional antenna. Mayor Janice Perrino added that the antenna allows Rogers Telecommunications to compete in Summerland. The existing tower is owned by Telus. “This is all about fairness,” she said. Coun. Martin Van Alphen said the request for the antenna came because of concerns about cellular service in the area. “Rogers wouldn’t be here if the public wasn’t demanding better service,” he said.

Coun. Peter Waterman was the sole dissenting voice at the council table. He said he has looked at information from Europe, where concerns about similar antennas has resulted in strict

regulations. He said the potential health risks from an additional antenna must be considered. The installation of the antenna was approved with Waterman opposed.

CounCil report The regular meeting of municipal council was held on Nov. 12 in council chambers. The mayor and all councillors were present.

Meeting dates set

Council adopted a schedule of meetings for 2014. Meetings are held on the second and fourth Mondays of the month. If a statutory holiday falls on a Monday, the meeting is moved to the Tuesday.

Sani-dump fees increase

Sani-dump users will pay a little more to use the facility next year. Council approved an increase in user fees from $5 per use to $8 per use. The increase is to cover the municipality’s operating expenses. In 2013, the municipality received $3,765 in revenues from the sani-dump station. Expenses totalled $6,877.38. Throughout the Okanagan Valley, most sani-dump facilities are at gas stations and are privately operated. The province operates one facility at Okanagan Lake Campground north of Summerland, but there are no other municipally-operated facilities in the province.

rezoning bylaw read

Council gave first reading to a bylaw to rezone a portion of 9348 Alder St. The zoning change is from RSD2-Residential Large Lot to RSD1-Residential Medium Lot.

Clinics provide influenza vaccines

Summerlanders lined up for this year’s flu vaccines on Tuesday as the Interior Health Authority

held an immunization clinic. The clinic, at St. John’s Lutheran Church, was the first

of two from the health authority. The second will be on Dec. 10. In addition, flu vaccines will also be

available at pharmacies. Stephanie Welsman, public health nurse with Interior

Health Authority, said the vaccines are important because influenza is highly contagious.

“If you’ve had your flu shot, you’re going to protect yourself and the people around you,” she said. “It’s the biggest cause of death you can prevent.” From 1918 to 1920, a flu pandemic infected 500 million people worldwide and killed between 50 and 100 million. This year’s vaccine is designed to protect against three strains of influenza. The strains are A-California, a variant of H1N1; A-Victoria, a

variant of H3N2 and B-Massachusetts, which does not have a number designation. Welsman said vaccines are offered each year because new strains of influenza are developed. “One of the problems with the influenza virus is it keeps mutating,” she said. While there are some advising against the flu shots, Welsman said the treatment is proven. “Vaccines are very safe. They’ve been around so long,” she said.

When a person passes away one of the first questions that must be answered is: Did the deceased have a valid will? If the answer is yes, then the process which must be followed to legally deal with their assets is called an application for Probate. If the deceased did not have a valid will then the process is called an application for Estate Administration. Both applications are essentially the same in that they list the assets to be dealt with, appoint a person to be in charge of the estate and then determine who receives those assets or the proceeds from the liquidation of those assets. Where they diverge is the method of determining who the beneficiaries are and the apportionment of the estate between those beneficiaries. In creating a will a person sets out their wishes for the distribution of their estate. Without a will the distribution of an estate is governed by the provisions of the Estate Administration Act. Those provisions are arbitrary and will require the involvement of the Public Trustee on behalf of minor beneficiaries. The consequences of passing away without a properly executed will drawn by your Lawyer can be financially and emotionally devastating to your family or beneficiaries. Without a will your survivors are left without any direction as to how your estate is to be distributed as well as any idea who should be in charge of distributing your estate. Even a very basic will covers these important matters. The passing of a loved one is traumatic enough without family members and survivors having to worry about legal issues. Proper legal advice at all stages of the process is essential to the smooth and worry free transmission of assets through an estate.

EDITORIAL

our pick

Examining spending A report on municipal spending, compiled by the Canadian Federation of Independent Business, does not show Summerland in a flattering light. Of 153 municipalities in British Columbia, Summerland was ranked among the worst, placing 20th from the bottom in terms of bad spending. The report examines tax increases compared with the rate of inflation. Using this benchmark, a community which can maintain its budget at last year’s level would receive high praise in the report while one which increased taxes slightly would be less well received. The budgets and tax increases do not tell the complete story. Taxes have risen in Summerland, but those increases have been modest. This is thanks in part to the work of a finance committee which examines each item to decide if it can be supported. The scrutiny from this committee is part of the reason our budget remains reasonable. A portion of the tax increases we have seen are to fund some significant and badly needed improvements. Road work, water upgrades and the new police station have all been needed. Even without such projects, the costs of running a municipality will increase slightly each year as there are cost increases beyond the control of a local government. The costs of energy, supplies and labour will increase slightly from one year to the next. Attempting to keep spending at the level of a previous year would result in some cuts to services. Reports and studies such as the one from the Canadian Federation of Independent Business are useful if they result in a careful consideration of public spending. However, it would be a mistake to use a community’s expenditures or tax rate as the sole measure of its financial success or failure.

Once again it was inspiring to see the number of people who attended Summerland’s Remembrance Day ceremony in Memorial Park on Nov. 11. The event is important as a way to consider the sacrifices made during Canada’s military involvement. It should also serve to remind us to take measures to prevent another war from happening in the future.

Untangling oil pipeline politics VICTORIA – Reaction was swift and scattered after the “framework agreement” on new oil pipelines announced last week by B.C. Premier Christy Clark and Alberta Premier Alison Redford. First, here’s what it doesn’t mean. “B.C. blinked,” according to one Toronto commentator, based on the popular Tom Fletcher notion that B.C. gave up its claim to a share of Alberta’s resource royalties from heavy oil. Clark never made such a claim, so it would be difficult to give it up. Her often-repeated condition of a “fair share” of revenues from any new oil pipelines is purposely vague, but after repeated protests from Alberta, Clark clarified as far back as last June that provincial royalties are not on the table. There is no constitutional way to make such a demand, a point Redford has made several times. NDP leader Adrian Dix and the usual chorus of professional protesters claimed that Clark flip-flopped, opposing the Enbridge Northern Gateway proposal before the election and then embracing it once she was re-elected. This is also inaccurate. Clark’s five conditions were set out before the May election, demanding approval by a federal environmental review, “world-leading” spill

prevention and response capability on land and at sea, meeting legal requirements to consult and share benefits with aboriginal communities, and the undefined “fair share” for B.C. Clark said numerous times during the campaign that the conditions have not been met, and made pessimistic noises about Northern Gateway, but she very carefully did not campaign against it. The B.C. Liberal platform also endorsed a Kitimat-area oil refinery proposed by this newspaper’s owner, and Clark repeatedly referred to that sort of industrial expansion as one of the potential “fair share” components for B.C. The B.C. Liberal government made its opposition to Northern Gateway “as currently proposed” official on May 31, two weeks after the election, in its final submission to the federal review panel. If Clark had wanted to jump on the antipipeline bandwagon for political gain, that move could have been made earlier. NDP environment critic Spencer Chandra Herbert said the B.C. government has taken the position that more oil will reach the West Coast, by rail if not by pipeline. I’m not sure if or when that claim was made, but it’s true that rail shipments are already permitted. Here’s what Redford and Clark agreed on. Redford accepts B.C.’s five conditions, provincial royalties excluded, and Clark endorsed Redford’s

proposed “Canadian Energy Strategy,” which B.C. rejected last year. A draft of the strategy released last summer contains no specifics on how it would facilitate a pipeline project from Alberta to B.C. It talks about developing Canada’s energy reserves and at the same time somehow reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and promises a final version next spring. Oh, and Quebec refuses to participate. Ottawa has sole jurisdiction over inter-provincial projects such as Northern Gateway and the proposal by Kinder Morgan Canada to expand the 60-yearold Trans Mountain pipeline to Burnaby and refineries in Washington. If there is to be some extra revenue for B.C. from oil traffic, it could theoretically take the form of a toll on pipelines. Redford pointed out the problem with that idea in her speech to an energy forum in Vancouver last week. She noted that 42 per cent of B.C. natural gas is piped through Alberta to markets. If B.C. can toll Alberta oil, the same could be done with B.C. gas. None of B.C.’s five conditions has yet been met. Legally, they don’t have to be, except for the one about accommodating aboriginal title. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalNews. com.

culls

Vaccinations and immunization efforts have been in place for a long time, but in recent years, there has been a growing antiimmunization effort. As a result, there have been cases where easily preventable and almost forgotten diseases have resurfaced. Some of the diseases which no longer appear have been stopped because of immunization. Questions about the safety of vaccines and the long-term effects should be raised. However, rejecting a preventative measure entirely may have some serious and far-reaching effects.

Revenue sharing questions raised

Dear Editor: Re: A recent article by Robert Roach, “British Columbia’s LNG industry – boom or sonic boom?” The article stated in

part that to achieve success, “industry and government must work together — and quickly.” However, there was no mention of another

component that will have considerable impact on the proposed revenue flow and net benefit to the B.C. government. The B.C. govern-

ment is now arbitrarily sharing mining royalties with several Aboriginal groups in B.C. Not to mention that one of our

Crown Corporations, B.C. Hydro, an integral part of the B.C. government, also has agreed to revenue sharing with random groups of Aborigin-

als. It would be unrealistic to entertain that the B.C. government would not be prepared to share the LNG royalties with

The early years

Making a difference

Starting its tradition of generous giving and volunteering, the Summerland Hospital Auxiliary Thrift Shop first opened in 1959, operating out of the old Municipal Office (built in 1910) which had also been used as the fire hall. Nov. 15 is National Philanthropy Day, and we’d like to salute the local organizations and individuals who have made an impact—in our community, country and the world. Where would we be without the work of the charitable organizations, service groups and volunteers? Thank you all; you are appreciated. Have a happy National Philanthropy Day!

the Aboriginals as well. Having conceded those royalties to the Aboriginals, without first having established rights to titles, and resources that belong to all of us, the B.C. government has arbitrarily allowed the Indians a virtual veto over resource development in our province. Taseko is estimated to already having spent in excess of $100 million in preparation to build the Prosperity mine near Williams Lake, while being stonewalled by governments and Aboriginals. Taseko is a well established B.C. copper miner, and is by many considered the bellwether for the mining industry in B.C. If Taseko does not get the permits required to proceed with this billion dollar project, mining in B.C. will very likely become dormant for a long time. Uncertainty is hovering like dark clouds over all resource development in B.C. and begs the questions: How many of these projects will be vetoed by the Aboriginals, and how big a share of those desperately needed royalty dollars is Premier Clark arbitrarily going to give the Aboriginal groups? Andy Thomsen Summerland

Efforts made through War Amps appreciated Dear Editor: I belong to Operation Legacy, a group of members of The War Amps Child Amputee (CHAMP) Program dedicated to preserving Canada’s military heritage and teaching other young people how to carry on the

remembrance message. This year, The War Amps is celebrating a major anniversary. Ninety-five years ago, First World War amputee veterans formed The Amputations Association of the Great War. The name was

changed to The War Amputations of Canada when Second World War amputees joined their ranks. These men later started the CHAMP Program to assist young amputees like me. In addition to having had the priv-

ilege of learning about Canada’s military heritage from a young age, I also know what it is like to live without a limb – a strong bond that I share with war amputee veterans. Because of this, I feel it is my duty to ensure that the stories

of war are preserved and its lessons never forgotten. I have been fortunate to be involved with Operation Legacy by participating in local Remembrance Day ceremonies and laying wreaths on behalf of The War Amps.

An upgrade project for Memorial Park is also under consideration. The project was first suggested in 2004. It would include a walking path at the perimeter of the park, a picnic area and a space for music and entertainment. A third project is support for the Summerland Food Bank and the resource centre. The fourth project is improvement work at the Adams Bird Sanctuary. Fortin said the club is always open to suggestions from the public for other community projects. Once the Summerland club determines which project or projects to support, an application for grant funding can be made to Rotary International. Smaller items, such as a recent $12,000 contribution to Agur Lake Camp, come directly from the Summerland Rotary Club’s accounts and do not require a grant application to Rotary International. In addition to the Summerland projects, the Rotary Club also funds international aid projects.

Candy Stripers learn about health care by Carla McLeod Special to the Review Every weekday afternoon two or three young people arrive at the Dr. Andrew Pavillion. They don red and white aprons and spend the next hour and a half with the residents who live here. These volunteers are part of the Candy Stripers and Health Care Cadets Program. On this particular afternoon they are playing bingo with a group of eight. Other days they may be baking, cooking, doing crafts, or reading to them. Every day before leaving, they tie on each person’s dinner apron. Coordinator of Volunteers, Carol Patené explains that the program is sponsored by the Summerland Hospital Healthcare Auxilary. Her role with Interior Health is to register the volunteers,

make sure they have the proper orientation and training. They then work under the direction of the Activity Coordinator, Pamela Hinchliffe who said, “I really appreciate having them here. For the residents to have young people here, is a real benefit.” She also expressed the fact that seniors are often isolated in facilities, and that this is a way to bring the community in to them. Patené pointed out, “It’s about relationships and learning new skills. It’s also good for their portfolios and resumes.” Three of the young volunteers voiced what the program meant to them. Hannah Wright said, “I love it, it’s so much fun. I like seeing the people smile and have a good time. I get enjoyment from that. It’s like a grand-

parent family here.” Sukhmeet Saran likes meeting people, the workers as well as the residents. She likes how it makes her feel, to be doing something good in the community. Emily Okabe enjoys being with older people. “Elders are really important. They have so much experience and wisdom,” she said. As the afternoon bingo game came to an end, the volunteers’ efforts were rewarded as a gentleman wheeled away from the table saying, “keep up the good work and thanks for coming. You made our day a little bit brighter.” If you know a positive story about someone in our community contact Carla McLeod at carlamcleod@shaw.ca or contact the Summerland Review newsroom at 250-494-5406.

Displaying artifacts

Sharon Stone of the Summerland Museum sets up a portion of an exhibit earlier this year. Because of space limitations, not all items can be displayed.

Museum seeks solutions to alleviate space shortage The story of Summerland and its people, from its earliest roots to the present, is told at the Summerland Museum. Unfortunately, a lack of space limits the amount of artifacts and information that can be displayed. The Wharton Street development project included a new, bigger museum with room to exhibit more of our history and provide easier access to

archives and though the project has come to a halt, the need for more space continues. Thanks to many generous donors, the museum has received and catalogued more than 8,000 artifacts since 1963 and more are still coming in. These treasures are meant to be displayed and shared with the community and not hidden away in rented off-site locations. To reduce rental costs, part of the

basement at the RCMP detachment has been allocated for museum storage but this was to be a temporary solution until the new museum was completed and is not an ideal situation. The Summerland Museum group was organized in 1965 and by 1971 the first museum was opened in a small addition to the old arena (near the present site of the museum.) Five years later the museum moved to the Kettle Valley Railway Station on South Victoria Road but soon outgrew the building. Thanks to a $200,000 grant from the federal government in 1983 the existing museum was constructed and with the help of many volunteers it was built for $188,285, well within budget. The municipal council at that time agreed to provide the site for the building as Summerland’s share with no burden to the taxpayer. An annual grant assists with operating costs of the museum. Now the 30-yearold building is in need of major repairs and renovations in order to meet the present require-

ments. The current central location is ideal for visitors and residents and has room for outdoor exhibits as well as the potential for expansion while maintaining an area of green space. Renovations to the museum would involve adding on to the existing building to provide more room for exhibits, an archival work area, and storage space, as well as an elevator and upgrades to the roof, heating system and wheelchair accessible entrance. Additionally, the miniature railroad could remain in operation and would not have to be dismantled. Museum staff and directors want to find a solution that best benefits Summerland and the museum, so they are seeking the opinion of the community. Please complete this short survey so we know how you feel about the importance of a larger museum. Surveys may be dropped off at the Summerland Museum on Wharton Street, completed online at summerlandmuseum. org, or mailed to Box 1491, Summerland, B.C., V0H 1Z0.

Museum survey

Staff at the Summerland Museum are asking for public input about the facility. Please take the time to complete this survey and mail it to Box 1491 Summerland, B.C. V0H 1Z0. Alternately, an online survey is available at summerlandmuseum. org. 1. Do you think that the museum in its present location enhances the first view of downtown Summerland to visitors arriving at Wharton Street and Rosedale Avenue? m Yes m No 2. Are you in favour of the District of Summerland retaining title to the property on which the museum is situated and expanding the existing museum building? m Yes m No 3. Do you have any ideas or suggestions?

ticton. Van Alphen said organizers would also like to bring a restorative justice program back in Summerland. This program, through the provincial Attorney General, brings offenders and victims of crime together. In addition to the school-based events and initiatives with a focus on youth, Van Alphen said other items are also being considered. Organizers hope to co-host a Philosophers’ Cafe community discussion session and organize a bullyfree workzone program. “There are a lot of things which can be done to lift up our community,” Van Alphen said.

In February this year, events included Pink Shirt Day, a locally produced video, seminars and the showing of a documentary about the effects of bullying. Van Alphen said promotion of the anti-bully message is continuing. The committee has joined with Stop A Bully, a national reporting service for schools. This initiative was started by teachers at Summerland Secondary School and is in use by school across Canada. Pink wrist bands, with the Stop A Bully website and the Summerland Bully Free logo are now being circulated. Organizers are also working to have signs with an anti-bullying message around the community. For 2014, Pink Shirt Day will be on Feb. 24. Organizers are discussing a follow-up video to this year’s

Halloween customs in Japan Konnichiwa! I hope everyone is keeping warm. In Toyokoro, the temperature has decreased dramatically. It seemed within a couple days, the seasons noticeably changed from summer to borderline winter. About a month ago, Hokkaido was hit by a very mild typhoon. During the day, we experienced all four seasons – beginning with warm, humid summer weather and ending the day with a blizzard. Since Toyokoro is close to the Pacific Ocean, classes were cancelled so everyone could prepare. Having never been through a typhoon, I had no idea what they meant by ‘prepare’ except to stay indoors. Since then, the weather has stayed

clear, and cool. Because of this, Toyokoro has become even more beautiful with its maple and elm trees changing from green to rusty orange. I can’t help but think about the festive holidays when I see this. Even here, it’s starting to feel quite festive. Although, they don’t celebrate western holidays in the conventional sense, they still have similar holidays with their own Japanese twist. For example, the majority of the people here are either secular or Buddhist/ Shinto. They still celebrate Christmas but with a different tradition – Kentucky Fried Chicken. People have to order KFC months in advance to be sure they will be able to get some for Christ-

mas day. Even Halloween has started to take off in Japan in the last 10 years. This past month, I taught my elementary to adult students about Halloween and it was a big hit. We carved pumpkins, wrapped toilet paper around each other to create mummies and made masks. There is a festival here in Japan called Obon that has similar beliefs, and background. In Hokkaido, Obon takes place in August and is a three-day long event. During this time, people believe the departed return to earth to visit their old homes. Families visit their ancestral graves to clean, and maintain them. Traditional music, and dancing

Notes from toyokoro

Anna Marshall is one of the customs during this time. Obon is concluded with lantern lighting to signal to the dead that it is time to return to the afterlife. Despite the fact that it’s a Buddhist festival, many people don’t see it as being

religious. In fact, they use this opportunity to reunite with their families and spend the long weekend with one another. Even though it has similar beliefs as Halloween, it isn’t viewed as scary, but as a happy holiday for family making it quite similar to our Thanksgiving. Thanks for reading. Japanese proverb – I no naka no kawazu taikai wo shirazu. (A frog in a well doesn’t know the great sea.) Anna Marshall is in Summerland’s sister city of Toyokoro, Japan as the assistant English teacher.

Regional heritage examined by Joe Fries Black Press

History will be updated as a consultant begins drawing up a comprehensive list of the region’s heritage sites and, in some cases, recommending ways to help them turn a profit. It’s hoped the new plan will help the Regional District of Okanagan-Similkameen adjust to a shift in a senior government’s attitude towards places with historical value. The RDOS board earlier this month awarded a $56,850 contract to a North Vancouver firm that will update an inventory of the region’s heritage sites, then develop a plan to protect, and capitalize on those assets, and provide assistance to local heritage societies. The RDOS board made the heritage strategy a priority this year, although the consultant’s final report isn’t expected until next spring. Its arrival will coincide with upcoming centennial celebrations for the SS Sicamous and the Kettle Valley Railway.

Ask Your Dentist...

I’m excited! As you know, I’m crazy about teeth. New technology that makes it easier for me and more comfortable for my patients is just plain fun. We just updated our Dr. Cindee Melashenko services with a computer that can design a tooth and a milling machine that can make a crown in under 20 minutes. Let me break this down for you...A patient will often come in with a broken tooth (let’s say it’s not painful, it is just sharp because it is broken). In the past we would numb them, “fix” the tooth, take an impression, and then put on a temporary (think “plastic”) crown. We would then send the impression to a lab to have the permanent crown made and see the patient back in 2-3 weeks (often involving another needle) to replace the temporary crown with the permanent crown. NOW, with this new technology, we numb you once, use a 3D camera to image the prepared tooth, design the crown on the computer, and have the milling machine make it right here in the office! No more temporary crowns that break or come off. No more goopy impressions. No need for second appointment and getting numb twice. The crown is made of the same material as I order from the lab. I loved my job before, this now puts it over the top! Dentistry has come a long way. If you are programmed to be nervous or fearful of the dentist, we can help change that. Allow us to help restore and maintain the appearance and function of your teeth that you were meant to have. We’re here to help in any way we can. Feel free to call, stop by, or send us an e-mail message. We are always accepting new patients and I’d be happy to answer your question in the next article (anonymously if desired). Have a great week!

Art and music in the Okanagan As those who took advantage of the Studio Tour earlier this month know we are blessed to live in a community with many talented and accomplished artists. Of course, there are many more talented people who engage in painting, pottery and other artistic endeavours as a recreational pursuit. Did you know that the Okanagan is home to a remarkable concentration of outstanding contem-

porary artists with national reputations? Sadly most Canadians do not know that there is such a strong group of artists living and working in this valley. However, one woman is working to change that. Patricia Ainslie, Chief Curator emerita of Calgary’s prestigious Glenbow Museum in Calgary and now resident of West Kelowna, has written a book Okanagan Artists in their

They include Byron Johnston, Bryan Ryley, Daphne Odjig, Jock Hildebrand, Joice M. Hall, Ann Kipling, David Alexander, John Hall, Briar Craig, Julie Oakes, Gary Pearson, Jim Kalnin, Fern Helfand. Some have lived here most of their lives and have taken their inspiration from this place, while others had established their reputations elsewhere but moved here for a variety of reasons, including the opportunity to teach at UBCO. The range of media, style and intention is diverse and you can witness that talent and diversity by reading Ainslie’s book or by

People heading in for an afternoon workout at the Penticton Community Centre last week also had a chance to lend strength to the campaign to decriminalize marijuana in B.C. Jo Ann Murphy, a registered canvasser for Sensible BC, was

collecting signatures there on copies of the official petition to which she has devoted nearly all of spare time for two months straight. With the help of Murphy and about 30 other volunteers, Sensible BC has now collected close to 3,500 signatures in the Penticton riding, according to local organizer Amanda

Stewart. The threemonth campaign closes Dec. 5. Sensible BC needs 10 per cent of eligible voters in each of B.C.’s 85 ridings to sign the petition in order to trigger a referendum on its proposed legislation that would set the stage to decriminalize marijuana possession and tax the sale of weed.

LENNIE

William John Tait (Bill)

March 20, 1954 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; November 5, 2013 After a courageous battle with esophageal cancer, we are saddened but relieved to announce that Bill passed away peacefully at Moog and Friends Hospice House, Penticton, BC with his special girl, Janice, by his side. Throughout his life, Bill had many passions, including riding Harleys, antique and muscle cars, his 1947 purple Chevy and building racecars. He also had a great love for NASCAR, and his favorite drivers, the late Dale Earnhardt and Dale Earnhardt Jr. (his boy), of whom he idolized and looked forward to every single race. He collected memorabilia from t-shirts, hats, jackets, bobble-heads, books, pictures, you name it. When it came to fixing cars, Bill was old school â&#x20AC;&#x201C; he could fix anything and constantly reminded his female friends to check their oil and maintain their vehicles! His knowledge of mechanics will be greatly missed â&#x20AC;&#x201C; he was just that go to guy â&#x20AC;&#x201C; knowledge, knowledge, knowledge. Bill was also a real history buff and had a keen interest in World War I and II airplanes, especially. Bill worked hard all his life and he played hard too. He had a variety of occupations which would take him to Alaska and Alberta to build roads, driving logging trucks in BC, to mechanics in Sask., BC and the NWT, and other jobs too numerous to mention. Bill loved to have fun, loved parties, all kinds of music and people from all walks of life. He was a real character and brought smiles and laughter to all who knew and loved him. Sometimes gruff on the outside, Bill had a heart of gold on the inside and would go out of his way for people. When he moved back to Summerland, BC in August 2010, Bill made many great friends and rekindled old friendships. He will be sadly missed but fondly remembered by his many special friends, including his best friend Billy Bruce, Patti, Fred, Sonia, Brent, Joanne, Doug, Terry and Tammy, who were his constant support in the last days of his life. Billâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sask. friends, including Janice, Morgan, Lenny, Abe, Scott, Ray and others of which there are many will miss him dearly and cherish his memory forever. Canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget the cats â&#x20AC;&#x201C; especially Grampa Harley! Bill was predeceased by his parents, grandparents and special Aunt Clara. He is survived by his children, Tyler and Tara. A very special thank you to all the medical personnel involved in Billâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s care and treatment, including the doctors, nurses, home care nurses (Debby, Joanne et al) and ALL the staff at Moog Hospice for their kind and compassionate care in Billâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s final days. A special celebration of Billâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life will be held at a later date in Summerland. In keeping with Bill doing things â&#x20AC;&#x153;his wayâ&#x20AC;?, next summer he will be coming back home in style in a Nitrous Oxide bottle, complete with a beautifully hand crafted wooden carrying case built by his buddy Toyota Ted. He will be escorted in Billyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 1948 Chevy Sedan Delivery with Patti to Yorkton, SK, where he will be laid to rest beside his Grandfather. At that time Billâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sask. friends will meet for one big bash in his honor â&#x20AC;&#x201C; he would like that. Bill will forever be remembered in our hearts, and his words, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Remember the 3 Râ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Romance, Racing and Rockâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;n roll!â&#x20AC;? Until we meet again, R.I.P. In lieu of flowers, donations in Billâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s memory may be made to Moog and Friends Hospice House, 1701 Government Street, Penticton, BC V2A 8J7 Condolences may be sent to the family through providencefuneralhomes.com.
