Local schools will not see any changes to recess as of yet with last week’s teacher job action. Teachers throughout the province are in stage one of job action, which limits supervision outside of regularly scheduled classes and contact with administrators. While some districts in the province have cancelled recess, School District 51 (SD51) principals and other administrators will fill in with supervision at elementary schools in Grand Forks and Christina Lake. “At this time in the district, recess had not been cancelled,” said Kevin Argue, SD51 superintendent. “It’s something we’ll continue to review but at this time we have not cancelled it. Principals are filling in for the teacher supervision in all our schools. Some of our excluded staff, staff that work out of the board office and are non-union, are filling in and supporting a place where the principal alone may not be able

to fill in all the requirements for supervision in order to be a safe situation.” Argue himself was performing supervision at Perley Elementary in Grand Forks on Wednesday (April 23). He added that principals and other administration will be filling in for morning and after school supervision as needed. “Lunch time there are no teachers doing supervision anyway so we don’t need to fill in there,” said Argue. Extracurricular activities such as sports are not affected by phase one job action. Field trips are also unaffected at this time, said Argue. “The other big thing that’s not happening right now is professional learning (such as) non-instructional days (and meetings with the staff),” he said. “The principal would still give the opportunity for those meetings to come but the (word from the) strike action would say that the teachers can’t come to something where the principal is at a meeting.”

It’s been a roller coast week for the Grand Forks and District Fall Fair society. On Thursday, a tearful Kelly McIver, secretary/treasurer, and husband Jason McIver, president, came to the Gazette and announced the fall fair was cancelled due to a lack of volunteers. However, a last minute rescue from the River Valley Community Church with volunteers has saved the fair and it’s on again. “One of the members (of the church) approached Pastor Gabe and said, ‘The fall fair isn’t happening this year. They don’t have enough volunteers,’ and the pastor said, ‘Wow. No. Let’s do it.’ So he contacted me on Saturday and said they would get the congregation and help us do it,” said Kelly McIver. “It’s just fabulous. We’re very happy. I just can’t say enough about the River Valley Church.” The fall fair will be on from Aug. 22-24 at Dick Bartlett Park. McIver said the church members will be helping in many different capacities throughout the weekend with set up and with events. She does add that they would still love to have other volunteers step up. “We’d love to have as many people as we can get,” said McIver. “There’s lots to do. More people means shorter shifts.” Despite cancelling, McIver said they were able to re-book all the events and acts. “Everybody’s back!” she said. Highlights for the fair include musical entertainers Undercover on Friday night, rising country star Lisa Nicole on Saturday night, and an Alan Jackson impersonator called Almost Alan. “We also have Uncle Chris the Clown coming and a magician scientist coming from Vancouver,” said McIver. “We’ve got zucchini races and Survivor. We’re working with the ATV club. They’d like to be a part of it. We’ve got RC (remote control) racing going on this year which is new.” There will be lots of fun events for both children and adults, said McIver. “We’ll have the 4H club with dog agility, a petting zoo, exotic reptiles show, and a mechanical bull.” Anyone wanting to get involved as a volunteer with the fair can contact Jenny at grandforksfallfair@gmail.com.

Hoekstra finds himself in spotlight CRAIG LINDSAY

Grand Forks Gazette

Although it eventually cost him his job, Grand Forks resident Arnold Hoekstra was able to resist Interior Health’s flu shot but would he be able to resist the national media spotlight? In the March 12 Grand Forks Gazette, our front page story told about how Hoekstra was fired from his job at the Boundary Hospital after refusing both Interior Health’s flu shot and wearing a mask to work. Just over a month later, Hoekstra was the target of a media frenzy after provincial health doctor Perry Kendall mentioned at a press conference that Hoekstra was the only health care worker in B.C. fired after refusing to get the flu shot. “There was one health care worker in B.C. who refused to abide by the policy… and in fact he was terminated,” said Kendall at the news conference on April 23. Shortly after, the Gazette was contacted by CTV, CBC, the Vancouver Sun, and other news outlets about the story. Hoekstra ended up being interviewed ARNOLD HOEKSTRA by all those news sources as well as Global, the Globe and Mail, Kamloops news radio, and more. “I’d like to go right to Victoria and stand there and take the story right to the Parliament buildings,” said Hoekstra. “I don’t think they expected this. They didn’t expect one person to say, ‘No, I’m not going to take this.’ I think it’s scary for them. I’ve got nothing but I’ve still got my voice. I want it all out there. That’s why I’ve been accommodating all these people. I want people to be aware of what’s going on.” Hoekstra, who is 49 years old and lives in Grand Forks with his wife and seven children, was a permanent part-time worker in the adult day program. In all, he had worked for Interior Health for five years. Hoekstra did learn through the media storm that there was at least one other provincial health care worker who refused to get the flu shot. Derrick Moore, a doctor at Nanaimo Regional General Hospital, came out after the press conference saying that he refused to get vaccinated or wear a mask during the flu season; however, he was not terminated. According to the Vancouver Sun, Moore said he and about 10 nurses at the Nanaimo hospital also ignored the policy, and, even though they told their bosses, they were never disciplined. “He just came forward in the media,” said Hoekstra. “Before the policy was in place, he told them he wasn’t going to do it. Nothing was done. I talked to him last night (April 27) at length.” Hoekstra said he and Dr. Moore talked about discrimination and why he was fired while the doctor (and colleagues) was not. Hoekstra was glad to know that he was not along in refusing the flu shot and mask. “It makes me feel there’s someone with me,” he said. “I want to fight this policy and whatever it takes, legally and morally, I want it out of there.” Hoekstra said he’s upset that people are lining up and getting the flu shot without asking questions. “They don’t ask what’s in there,” he said. You have people checking ingredients in a grocery store but not for something going right into their blood stream, said Hoekstra. “I want people to know what’s actually going into their bodies and asking, ‘Do I really want this in my body?’” he said. “For a government to mandate your health is to be off-limits. You tell me it’s a choice—but it’s no choice.”

Council adopts financial plan Grand Forks City council members (from left) Michael Wirischagin, Patrick O’Doherty, Cher Wyers, Mayor Brian Taylor, Bob Kendel, Neal Krog and Gary Smith discuss the 2014-18 financial plan bylaw 1996 at the regular council meeting Monday night. Council accepted final reading and adoption of the financial plan and also accepted as information regarding the 2014 tax rates bylaw 1997. All councillors except for Wirischagin voted in favour of the financial plan. Also, Mayor Taylor announced that a tender, Neptune Water Systems, has been chosen by the city for the water meter project.

POLICE BRIEFS Fraud alert

On April 24 at 4:36 p.m., RCMP received a call about a potential fraud. “A complainant said he was contacted by two males who identified themselves as being from Publisher’s Clearinghouse,” said Staff Sgt. Jim Harrison. “The complainant placed a $400 money grant order but did not release the reference number to the caller.” The callers told the complainant that he had won $2.5 million and that they would be coming to his house to present him with a cheque but he had to provide $400 to the callers, which he never did. “Of course, it was a scam,” said Harrison. “People need to know that those types of scams are still happening. This fellow was smart enough to know that if you get a prize you don’t have to pay for it.”

Gas station theft

On April 22 at 5:03 p.m., RCMP received a call about a theft from Shell Gas Station in Grand Forks. The suspect is a 27-year-old female from Grand Forks and has since been arrested, said Harrison. “She was issued a promise to appear on a charge of theft under $5,000.”

Pop machine vandalized

At 7:34 a.m. on April 24, police received a report of someone trying to pry open the pop machine outside of Buy-Low Foods. “They broke the plexiglass off the machine and did a lot of damage,” said Harrison. Anyone with any information is urged to call Grand Forks RCMP at 250-442-8288.

Theft under $5,000

On April 24 at 10:34 a.m., RCMP received a report that the waterfront trail camera at the Trans Canada Trail near Roxul was stolen. “The camera is a spy point model IR10 in a case,” said Harrison. The camera belonged to the trails society and was used to record trail usage. Anyone with information can call Grand Forks RCMP at 250-442-8288.

House burns down

On April 27 at 10:44 p.m., RCMP attended a suspicious fire at a house on Carson Road. “The fire department was on scene and put the fire out but the house is a total loss,” said Harrison. “It was a large house and the fire is suspicious in nature. We are currently investigating with assistance from the office of the fire commissioner.” The house was unoccupied and there were no injuries.

Return the favour

A last second reprieve has saved the Grand Forks and District Fall Fair. The fall fair society received an assist from the River Valley Community Church which came in and saved the day. The church offered up a congregation’s worth of volunteers who will fill in as needed to make the fair go. As anyone who has ever been involved with organizing an event knows, it takes a lot of people to make it work. Whether you’re talking about a fall fair, a Christmas concert, a baseball tournament, or a wine festival, you need people to step up and organize things and then you have to be able to run the actual event. Of course, a lot of the work is done in the background. As Kelly and Jason McIver or Joan Thomas (GFI) can tell you, it takes a lot of calls and emails and texts to confirm teams and musical acts and fence posts and everything else that needs to be booked usually months in advance. Canada celebrated volunteer week earlier this month but we again see how important volunteers are in our community. Without volunteers the fall fair would have folded and the same would be of any event. Those types of events as well as popular get-togethers like arts festivals, car shows and winter carnivals are what brings people together and break out of the winter or fall doldrums. If you and your family enjoy getting out of the house and being active and taking in these various community events, why not return the favour and volunteer? Aside from getting out and meeting people and doing a good deed, you can really make a difference in the community like the folks at River Valley Community Church. Of course, that’s all great but the other important factor for the further survival and, hopefully, expansion of the fall fair would be securing a permanent site. A permanent site with fairgrounds and buildings could perhaps allow the fair to attract a rodeo and maybe a midway every year and turn the event into a major attraction that would draw people from throughout the region and beyond.

YOUR THOUGHTS?

Notion of standards of dress have been abandoned Second Opinion JIM HOLTZ Florida school boards have quashed the idea that there should be a dress code for parents when they drop off or pick up their children at school or attend school functions. Palm Beach County school board member Karen Brill had raised the issue after becoming annoyed with the sight of parents continually appearing at local schools in hair curlers, pyjamas, sagging sweat pants and too-revealing tops, items of clothing that students are not allowed to wear to school, but parents seemed determined to wear themselves. Parents rebelled, of course, and the board

voted down the proposal. Brill had a point, however. One does not have to go to Florida to see parents who have chosen to exercise their right to dress in whatever way they want at their children’s schools, just as they do at the grocery store, mall, or really anywhere else. “Comfortable” clothing has become the norm: shorts, flip flops, sweat pants, tank tops, pyjamas, shapeless T-shirts; parents have decided to copy their children, dressing in whatever they see first in the closet or drawer. The arguments against standards of dress are predictable. We should be free to choose whatever we want. Dress codes are dictatorial. Telling adults to conform to standards of dress is a vestige of outdated elitism. Look around; the wealthy and famous dress in public

in whatever they want; why then shouldn’t everyone else? The arguments that centre on being too busy and not having enough time to put on anything but pyjamas or sweat pants and an old T-shirt are my favourite. Or the ones that say standards of dress are elitist. The proponents of those arguments have never been to rural Mexico or the Caribbean and seen school children emerge from 400 square foot cinder block houses in the morning dressed in immaculate ironed white shirts and blouses, pressed trousers and skirts, or driven by families standing at the side of a dirt road waiting for the jitney bus to take them to church, each woman and girl in a dress with matching shoes, each male in dress pants, white shirt and tie, all spotless. It’s true that dress codes

for parents in schools won’t work. They barely work for students, and teachers themselves frequently opt for “comfortable” clothing, rather than the business clothing that was once the norm. North American society has collectively decided that individual taste and style is more important than displays of unified social solidarity. The days when workers in factories took pride in changing from their work clothes into slacks, white shirts and fedoras before leaving the factory are gone. The average person doesn’t dress up to go downtown anymore. In the last 50 years, those notions have been abandoned. Thank goodness, say the majority, for the lack of artificial standards of dress is a reflection of a classless society. How true, others say, how true.

Refinery will create jobs

to the editor

Nothing put forward about improving our education system Letter to the Editor: The following facts and figures have been chosen to provide a basis for debate; we all pay for public education by various taxes and all have a vested interest in this topic. Education in B.C. seems to be entering into a period of unrest; locally, School District 51 (SD51) has additional problems. The previous edition of the Gazette provided some interesting quotations from the B.C. Teachers’ Federation (BCTF), the Minister of Education, and the president of the Boundary District Teachers’ Association (BDTA) on the labour situation which might provide insight into attitudes—both seemed to be quite wordy. Apart from the short and expected platitudes in the statements, nothing seems to have been put forward about improvement to the education system. The following figures are as accurate as I can discern but may not stand up to serious audit! At high school graduation, the end ‘product’ could still be improved from the $5.3 billion (15 per cent of provincial budget) annual spending on the school system. There has been no mention of how the unrest is likely to affect families and, more importantly, the students.

The BCTF and BDTA do not mention cash figures; the minister says it is about 13.5 per cent over three years, or 4.5 per cent per annum. The current teachers’ salaries are between $42,800 and $82,600. Canadian Consumer Price Index between June 2006 and June 2013 (the last collective agreement start and end dates) has been 12.33 per cent over seven years— an annual average of 1.76 per cent. During this period, the annual pay increase for the teachers was 2.96 per cent when compounded. It should be noted that for years 2011-12 and 2012-13, no increases were given—this was in accordance of the B.C. government’s ‘moratorium’ of zero increases for all government-paid employees. SD51 topics will come later when time permits; however, how disappointing that so few taxpayers attended the two SD51 budget discussions. Is it that we do not have sufficient time? Do we not care? Are we too apathetic? I would like to think that it is none of the aforementioned; perhaps when we have to dig deeper into our pockets, there may be a reaction. Unfortunately, it may be too late. Nigel James, Grand Forks

Ronaghan’s description sensible Letter to the Editor: Roy! Way to go! For the past few weeks I’ve been reading the many letters to the editor that express their authors’ concern regarding the City of Grand Forks’ decision to install water meters. The reading has given me several very humorous moments as I try to understand just what the problem is. I mean, people use cell phones that they place against their skull, don’t they? Many also use microwaves to cook their food and no doubt

weird things are caused by watching TV. But the moment some people are asked to do something sensible like pay their fair share for their use of a common resource, these people start to bring up all sorts of haywire reasons why they are special and shouldn’t be expected to do the right thing. Thank you, Roy, for your sensible description of the issue. Hopefully, the city council will continue on their way to doing what is best for the community. George Caisley, Christina Lake

Doctor will be dearly missed Letter to the Editor: We too are very saddened to hear that our doctor is leaving. It is time that those in charge of the clinic and the hospital explain this situation. Dr. Ajaero has been a model of profes-

sionalism which is something that the other doctors’ should take note of. He is going to be dearly missed in our communities. Mike and Thelma Robb, Grand Forks

This is the second of two columns addressing what I see as the greatest threat to the B.C. environment in our lifetime. The Alberta oil industry’s Northern Gateway plan is to export bitumen to Asia via tankers from the B.C. coast. Under no circumstances should we allow that to happen. A bitumen spill at sea could destroy our coastline, together with the fish and wildlife that depend on it, for hundreds of years. My first column discussed the light oil spill by the Exxon Valdez and the terrible toll it took on the Alaskan habitat and fishery. It also gave proof that a bitumen spill would be far worse. A bitumen spill would be almost completely unrecoverable because it would sink and stay on the bottom of our seabed. In the The solution that is best for Canada is to build Spotlight a refinery in Kitimat. I am promoting and backing this solution. It will convert the bitumen to DAVID BLACK very light fuels that would float and evaporate if ever spilled. There are other enormous benefits: There will be a major reduction in greenhouse gases. We will use new cuttingedge Canadian technology in our refinery. It will be so clean that in combination with oilsands extraction there will be less CO2 than in the huge conventional oilfields and refineries of Iraq and Nigeria. In other words the Kitimat refinery will neutralize the extra greenhouse gases generated in Canada’s oilsands. This refinery will be built in Asia if not in Kitimat, and if so it will emit double the CO2 of our new design. This is the reason that Andrew Weaver of the B.C. Green Party is in favour of a Canadian refinery. An Asian refinery will also generate 100 train cars a day of very dirty coke (much fouler than B.C. coal) which will be subsequently burnt in the atmosphere to create power. The Kitimat refinery will not result in the production of any coke. As we all live on one planet, it is far better for the global environment to build this refinery in Canada. Construction of the refinery will create 6,000 jobs in B.C. for five years. Operations at the refinery will result in more permanent jobs than any project has ever created in B.C. with approximately 3,000 direct jobs. These will be highly paid permanent jobs. These jobs will be available for the life of the refinery which should be in excess of 50 years. In addition there will be thousands of other jobs created in spinoff local petrochemical companies and in indirect employment throughout the province. The Canadian and provincial governments, local regional districts and municipalities, and many First Nations, will share in billions of new tax dollars each year. Unfortunately our Canadian oil companies are not interested in building a new major refinery. They are focused on extraction which is more profitable than refining. One of them challenged me to spearhead the refinery myself, so I am doing that. We have a solid business plan and as a consequence Chinese banks and other institutions are prepared to lend us most of the funds required to build the greenest and most efficient refinery in the world. We are currently moving ahead with engineering design and environmental work. We will also build a safe pipeline from Alberta to the refinery, with the active participation of First Nations. Modern pipelines can be built and operated safely. Leak data is available for everyone to see on Canadian and U.S. government websites and it proves recently constructed pipelines are not leaking. Furthermore some of the best pipelining companies in the world are based in Canada. In addition we will build a fleet of new tankers, powered by LNG rather than Bunker C oil, to transport the refined products to Asia. This way we know the tankers will be state-of-the-art and as safe as possible. The fleet will be owned by a company based in B.C. so it cannot shirk its legal liability if there ever is a spill at sea. Let me be up front about my biases. I am for creating thousands of good permanent jobs in B.C. I am for creating billions of new tax dollars for government coffers. I am for reducing the planet’s greenhouse gas emissions. I am for building an oil pipeline that will never leak. I am for building a modern tanker fleet that carries only refined fuels that float and evaporate if spilled. I am against shipping bitumen in tankers. If you agree that we should not put bitumen in tankers please contact your local MP and say so. The Canadian government makes a decision on Northern Gateway next month.

Letter to the Editor: Talk about putting the cart before the horse. Fall 2013 the RDKB launches the Kettle “Blah-Blah” Plan. A few months later Grand Forks City Council slams through a unanimous motion to install residential smart water meters. The citizenry clamours, an open-house is held and already by April 2014 a Request for Proposal to install the meters is put out to tender. All fine and good for what appears to be a rather “swift” administrative directive. In the meantime 800 Grand Forks residents sign a petition requesting the motion to install meters be rescinded, the community be truly consulted, a referendum be held and other options explored. In the meantime the “BlahBlah” plan is not completed and one would have presumed city council would have held off on water meters till it was…since water is on local governments’ radar and city council was supposed supportive of the “Blah-Blah” plan. Why jump the gun on the meters is my question now. In following the saga from the fringes I come to the conclusion “due process” is not being served in the matter. While Grand Forks Council sponsors workshops to increase citizen participation, it stomachs with difficulty involvement not in lock-step with its fiddle tune. I suspect there is more to this than meets the eye and it is not of the global conspiracy variety. An alert published this week by the City of Grand Forks, “… suspicious phone calls to members of the community regarding the installation of water meters…please contact the RCMP,” reeks of red herring and fear mongering by the city to sway the community’s favour. Really, how many calls, to whom, were they robo-calls? If so serious, why not the RCMP alerting the community? It is their domain after all. Let’s track down the culprits if culprit be…or get down to the hankypanky behind the alert.

“The snowpack conditions are all around normal-similar to last year,” he told the Gazette. “So based on that, at this point there isn’t an elevated risk. It’s just normal conditions as expected. Currently, the streams are showing some signs of early season melt but that’s all typical this time of year. Especially considering the weather—it’s been relatively warm with a little bit of rain. That has contributed to a little increase in stream flows but nothing of concern. Most of that is caused by melt from lower elevations.” Gardner said that in the past when there has been local flooding it’s usually

in late April and early May and is due to hot weather events or significant rain events. “At this point, that’s (the weather) the main determinant of flooding and high water conditions,” he said. “We’re keeping a close eye on weather forecasts and weather conditions in case advisories need to be made.” Gardner urges residents to use caution around rivers and streams in the area. “The water is going to be moving fast and they’re going to be cold,” he said. “With the melt, the streams tend to pick up speed quite a bit. They can be a bit more swift than people are used to.”

FLOOD PREPARATION

by Grand Forks Fire/Rescue

We are currently monitoring area snow packs and, dependant on spring weather conditions, want residents to be prepared for the possibility of flooding. If your home is in an area subject to flooding in extreme high water flows please ensure the following are completed: To reduce the likelihood of flood damage • Put weather protection sealant around basement windows and the base of ground level floors. • Install drainage for downspouts a sufficient distance from your residence to ensure that water moves away from the building. • Consider installing a sump pump and zero reverse flow valves in basement floor drains. • Do not store your important documents in the basement. Keep them at a higher level, protected from flood damage. If flood is forecast • Turn off basement furnaces and the outside gas valve. • Take special precautions to safeguard electrical, natural gas or propane heating equipment. • Shut off electricity only if flooding has not yet begun and the area around the breaker panel is completely dry. Stand to the side of the breaker panel and look away from the panel when switching the power off. Have a flashlight with you. If flooding is imminent • Move furniture, electrical appliances and other belongings to floors above ground level. • Remove toxic substances such as pesticides and insecticides from the flood area to prevent pollution. • Remove toilet bowls and plug basement sewer drains and toilet connections with a wooden stopper. • Disconnect eaves troughs if they are connected to the house sewer. • In some cases, homes may be protected with sandbags or polyethylene barriers. Follow instructions from local emergency officials. • Do NOT attempt to shut off electricity if any water is present. Water and live electric wires can be lethal.

NOTICE OF WATER MAIN FLUSHING The Water Utility Department advises residents that we will be flushing water mains throughout the City during the months of April and May. Regular annual flushing is an important component of a comprehensive water management program. Flushing water mains are done as part of a scheduled preventative maintenance program to remove sediment that gradually deposits in the pipes and helps maintain water quality in our system. Flushing will take place between the hours of 5:00 am and 3:30 pm. As we flush your area, you may experience a temporary reduction in water pressure and/or discoloration of the water. These conditions are normal during flushing activities and are only temporary. Please check your drinking, cooking, and laundry water before using. To clear your water lines, simply turn on your cold water tap or outside hose bib and let it run until the water is clear (approx 15 min. or more) Utility crews continue their water main flushing program to ensure the distribution system is refreshed and healthy. If you have any questions or if you experience any persistent water quality problems as a result of this maintenance program, please let us know at info@grandforks.ca or call Public Works at 250-442-4148.

Count: Twice as many deer CRAIG LINDSAY

Grand Forks Gazette

The semi-annual deer count on Friday revealed twice the number of deer in town than the previous year’s count. “At about 5:30 in the morning, a bunch of us were bushy-tailed and met out and did our regular count,” said Gary Smith, city councillor and chair of the deer committee. “We break the city into five zones and two individuals per car go out and do counts.” Smith pointed out that the group did not distinguish by sex because the horns have not grown in. “We counted 166 animals which is almost twice as many last year’s spring count,” he said. “The spring count, however, last year was a little later so the deer might’ve been out getting ready

to fawn and that.” Smith admitted there is a large degree of variability in the counts because of time of day, time of month. The committee also does a count in the fall where they do distinguish between male and female and fawns. “The idea is just to monitor the population,” he said. “It’s not hugely scientific. We’ve got now coming up on eight years of data. When the ministry is making decisions on what to do about urban wildlife, that’s the kind of thing they like to see. Not because it’s scientific, but because the community is doing its due diligence in proper monitoring and working out a plan towards urban wildlife.” Smith said having as much information as possible is important when going to the government for a request regarding wildlife.

Mayors meet to discuss issues

CRAIG LINDSAY

Grand Forks Gazette

A number of mayors from B.C. met recently in the East Kootenay to discuss several key issues including infrastructure challenges. Among those in attendance was Grand Forks Mayor Brian Taylor, who was one of about 30 B.C. mayors who gathered in Cranbrook and Kimberley recently for the Mayors’ Caucus from April 23-25. “We talked about the same stuff we had been talking about for two years,” said Taylor. “We went over the same issues we had looked at before and basically updated them in terms of language and things. But we’re still putting the same package of concerns before the (provincial) government.”

Taylor said the top issues the mayor’s conference is dealing with are infrastructure, sharing with the provincial and federal governments, and regional district configuration. “The municipalities are ready to share but they need to sit at the table and talk about this whole Canada build program (a federal program which funds various infrastructure projects through the province) that’s coming up,” said Taylor. As for the regional districts, Taylor said it’s been 50 years since they were set up in terms of legislation. “There was a lot of discussion on updating that,” he said. “Our relationship with the regional districts is really important in terms of making the best use of the resources and assets we have; the shared services we have.”

Real stretch for BMW lovers

A recent jaunt to Beijing was a major revelation, from the sheer size of the population to the massive car market and The all-new BMW the types of cars people there like to buy. In the luxury segment, elongated versions of existing sedan are very popular. There “long” wheelbase cars instantly show that the owner has attained a certain level of status and a big part of that is 335GT is the long being chauffer driven. In Canada, we have long wheelbase sedans but typically, they are top models like a BMW 7 Series wheelbase 3 Series, or S-Class Mercedes. In China, even base models like the BMW 3 Series or Audi A4 have stretched versions. I raise this developed for China, because the all-new BMW 335GT is the long wheelbase 3 Series, developed for China, modified for a niche market here. modified for a niche Looks Adding 10 cms of additional legroom to the back seat of the 335GT opens up a different experience for rear passengers. market here.

BMW does have a 3 Series station wagon but it looks like a wagon, this design mimics a sedan silhouette with only a slight hint of the cars true practicality. There is a wing that emerges out of the hatch at highway speeds to produce more down force, similar to the one found in Porsche’s Panamera. The GT is sold as a 328GT, with a $48,990 starting price. It has a turbocharged 4-cylinder engine and 18-inch wheels. The $56,990 335GT has a larger turbocharged 6-cylinder engine and 19-inch wheels. (The wheels seen here are winter wheels and tires) Inside The 3 Series sedan is already fitted with top-notch materials and a functional dash. This is carried over to the GT model, so the front seats remain unaltered. It is the back of the car that is dramatically different. With added legroom and a higher roofline the GT feels open, especially when fitted with the panoramic roof. My kids loved the extra space but noticed the doors sit a bit higher compared to a regular mid-size SUV. The hatch has no rear wiper so expect rear visibility to be blurry on rainy or snowy days. (You do get spoiled with a rear wiper on an SUV). The hatch is electronically operated and provides a long and wide cargo area, plus the rear seats fold in a snap.

CHOIR PAYS HOMAGE TO EARTH

B:5.8125” The Grand Forks Choral Society presented their spring concert entitled “Earth, Wind and Choir” at the GFSS auditorium this weekend. The choir presents two main concerts each year, one paying homage to spring and the other in T:5.8125” late fall ushering in the holiday season. Chris Hammett photo S:5.8125”

Grand Forks preeminent 10-piece R&B band Dr. Fun and the Nightcrawlers will reunite in Grand Forks for one night only, a beneﬁt performance for Rose Schwartz-Gilbert. Rose, the daughter of Gary Gilbert (Dr. Fun) and his wife Tani Schwartz, was recently diagnosed with Lyme disease after years of illness. The family has been raising money to help with the cost of her treatment, a campaign culminating in the return home to Grand Forks from Sechelt. The beneﬁt concert will be held at the Grand Forks Curling Rink Saturday, May 31 from 8 p.m. to 12 midnight. The evening also features special guests No Excuse (“the band of a thousand dances”), and a silent auction. No minors will be allowed. Tickets are $25 each in advance only, available at Sears Grand Forks and Thistle Pot Gifts. The event is expected to sell out, so get your tickets early. For those who wish to donate to help Rose but can’t attend the concert, a fund—the “Rose Fund”—has been set up at Grand Forks Credit Union.

Internet access expanded

Access to reliable high-speed satellite Internet is now more affordable for rural and remote British Columbians who don’t have access to traditional broadband service. Under the B.C. Broadband Satellite Initiative, a $2 million investment by the B.C. government, remote areas of B.C. where wired or wireless broadband service is not currently available will have more affordable access to the latest satellite Internet technology. Government has partnered with Xplornet Communications Inc. and local installers to provide qualified British Columbians with assistance for up to 50 per cent of installation costs up to a maximum of $250. The program will benefit residents where satellite technology provides the only option for a high-speed connection.

NOTICE OF PRUNING FortisBC Inc. has contracted Asplundh Canada ULC to manage vegetation near power lines within its service area. This work is necessary to reduce safety hazards near electrical wires and to prevent power outages caused by trees or tree limbs making contact with the lines.

Clearing around the low voltage lines that deliver power to individual residences remains the responsibility of the property owner. For safety reasons, FortisBC encourages homeowners to enlist the help of a qualified professional when pruning near low voltage lines.

Farmers’ Market opens soon

Over the next few weeks, Asplundh Canada ULC crews will be pruning, treating and removing hazard trees in the FortisBC service area of Boundary Area.

The work location is described as - the Rock Creek, Westbridge, and the Beaverdell areas.

A great reason to love spring is the fresh produce around the valley. A great place to pick up produce fresh from the farm is the local farmers’ market, which kicks off on Friday, May 9. The market goes every Tuesday and Friday at Gyro Park after that from 8 a.m. until 1 p.m. In July and August, the market will be open until 2 p.m. “We’ve got a good variety from last year, and I’m assuming we’ll have again this year, of fruit and vegetable vendors,” said Heather Underwood, market manager. “We’ll have baking; we’ll have jewelry; we’ll have crafts. Last year, we had wood carving. We had the tea lady there.” Max the Cupcake Kid was also a mainstay of the market last year with his popular confectionary treats. “He graduates this year, but we’re hoping to get him for a half a year before he heads off to university,” said Underwood. “We had quite a variety of presentations.” Underwood said that the farmers’ market focuses on locally produced goods. “We do have some that will come in from out (MJHP TZY \JJPQ^ Ć^JWX of town—but our criteria as a farmer’s market

is to have first and foremost any locally grown product,” she said. “If we have locally grown product that comes into the market from our vendors then people cannot bring the same product from out of town and sell it. Our local vendors have first right and priority. We figure that homemade and homegrown is the premise.” Underwood said they do have plenty of out of town crafts that are available at the market from places such as Nelson and Trail. The farmers’ market occasionally has musicians that play and are very popular with the market-goers. “I’m really hoping to get more buskers in,” she said. “Last year, one of the high school teachers (Jan deHaan) came in with his trio and played and were very popular. We have a lady from Christina Lake who does Celtic fiddling. She’s a regular. She’ll come on the Fridays once it gets warmer.” Underwood did say the board would like to see more fruit and vegetable vendors and orchardists, “or even backyard farmers. Anyone who has an excess crop of anything, please feel free to come and see us and set up a table on a drop-in basis if you’d like.” For more information or to become a vendor contact Underwood at hmu@telus.net.

Thumbs up for helping me find dog

Thumbs up to the couple who helped me find my dog. Thunder had frightened him and he ran away. I stopped to ask if they had seen him? They went out of their way to find him. Thank you. Thumbs down to the person that assumed, incorrectly, that the trees at the Christina Lake Hall were cut down because they made a mess. This person should find out the facts before making a statement like this. Thumbs up to the city for keeping the lights in the trees beyond the Christmas season. I love seeing those beautiful lights when I drive through town at night. Thumbs up to Neighbours Computers on their move to the former Del’s Bistro. One of the few retail operations expanding in Grand Forks. They must be doing something right. Thumbs down to the Liberal government for

their approval of expanded coal exports. With global warming causing havoc throughout the world, if you’re not part of the solution you’re part of the problem. Thumbs down to Grand Forks City Council for disregarding the voices of hundreds of Grand Forks residents regarding water

meters. Thumbs up to the Grand Forks Choral Society for a wonderful concert and staying green by not producing programs that would be thrown out after the concert. Would you like to give a thumbs up or a thumbs down? Email editor@grandforksgazette.ca with Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down as a subject line. We could publish your anonymous submission. Attacks on specific businesses and people will not be published. Editor’s discretion will always be exercised. Please keep it tasteful.

Digital Basin a powerful tool SUBMITTED

to the Grand Forks Gazette

Columbia Basin-Boundary residents are invited to attend an interactive workshop on how to use a new, powerful regional information tool developed by researchers at Selkirk College. “The Digital Basin,” an online data portal, includes more than 100 community-specific datasets relating to economic, cultural, social and environmental topics. “Information on conditions and trends in our region is now literally at the fingertips of residents,” says Dr. Terri MacDonald, the Columbia Basin Rural Development Institute’s (RDI) Regional Innovation chair at Selkirk College. Developed in partnership with the Selkirk Geospatial Research Centre, the Digital Basin allows users to explore information through maps, tables, charts and reports. Sources of data include national and provincial government agencies, municipalities and regional districts, local non-profit organizations, and researchers located within and outside the region.

One click and you’ll soon be awash with all the information you’ll need about water in Grand Forks. A new web page on the City of Grand Forks website will be a ‘one-stop shop’ for information on everything waterrelated in the community. Whether it’s information about the water meter program or water-saving tips for your household, you will be able to ﬁnd it all on the new Water Conservation page. “The average Grand Forks resident uses more than 720 litres per day of water. That’s more than 3,000 cups of water every day and about one-third more than the average British Columbian,” explained Mayor Brian Taylor. “We need to do a better job educating ourselves on water use and how we can better conserve this invaluable resource.” The new webpage will be available starting Monday, May 5 and will include water conservation tips for inside and outside your home, your business and even what to do while enjoying the outdoors. There is even a section for teachers to download water-saving activities for their students. Information on the city’s water meter program, including reports, timeline and frequently asked questions will also be available.

“We felt it was a good time to launch the webpage given that May 4-10 is Drinking Water Week across B.C.,” Taylor added. As part of Drinking Water Week, the city is also hosting an open house to help you learn how to save water and use it more efficiently. The webpage and open house are the first of many opportunities in the coming months for residents to learn helpful tips and practical solutions to reducing water use, and maintaining a healthy lawn and garden. Get started by making a commitment to save water by taking the Drinking Water Challenge at www.drinkingwaterweek.org/challenge. Join us at the open house May 8 between noon and 3 p.m. at Well #4/5, located in the southeast corner of Dick Bartlett Park, near the intersection of 19th St. and 70th Ave. We encourage schools to join us at the open house. Bring classes for a field trip and learn more about water conservation, why we need to conserve this precious resource and where our water comes from. Watch your mailbox in May for a newsletter with more information and tips on how you can reduce your water consumption. Watch for more information at grandforks.ca over the next few weeks.

IN BRIEF by Staff

Beneﬁts increase under rental assistance programs

A $12.5-million annual investment from the governments of Canada and British Columbia will enhance the existing provincial Shelter Aid for Elderly Renters (SAFER) program and Rental Assistance Program (RAP), providing greater benefits to low-income seniors and family households renting in the private market, announced Alice Wong, Minister of State (Seniors). Effective April 1, the maximum amount of rent used to calculate benefits for both programs was increased. The change to the monthly payment will vary. On average, families will see an extra $40 per month; the average increase for seniors will be about $34 per month. Both are non-taxable benefits. In addition, for SAFER, the minimum monthly benefit will increase to $25, up from $1 and the income eligibility level will rise by approximately nine per cent throughout the province. Funding for the program enhancements, totalling $62.5 million over five years, will be provided through the Canada-BC Investment in Affordable Housing (IAH) Agreement 2014-2019.

ATV club gets ready for a day of fun

SUBMITTED

to the Grand Forks Gazette

It will truly be a family fun day at the motocross on Morrissey Creek Road on Saturday, May 10. The Grand Forks ATV Club, along with the 17 partners of the Boundary Country Trails Agreement and other supporting partners of the Grand Forks/Christina Lake Multi-Use Recreational Trails Plan, invite all residents to this special event. It will be held from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.; watch for the signs just east of town. Events during the day include organized mountain bike rides led by Grand Forks mountain bikers, a hike around the area led by the North Fork trail maintenance group, horse rides with folks with horses and the Boundary Horse Association, and opportu-

nities for people to ride an ATV. There will also be a modified ATV safety course conducted by an ATV B.C. certified instructor and a mountain bike workshop. In addition there will be many guest speakers centered around the theme of riding an ATV properly and safely. There will be a barbecue featuring burgers and buns supplied by Overwaitea Foods and Buy-Low Foods. All proceed will go towards the multi-use trail project, with an estimated budget of $50,000. There will be a full safety course available on May 11. Contact Doug Zorn at info@gfatv.ca. Once completing the course the participant receives a certificate which allows an insurance discount. Come out and join in the fun, bring your ride or a chair—watch for maps in local public areas.

A LITTLE BUSINESS Boundary Country Regional Chamber of Commerce holds regular Biz After Biz networking sessions and this month it was the West Boundary’s turn to host it. BCRCC Executive Director James Wilson (right) spoke to those attending about the benefits of chamber membership then several local business owners did a show-and-tell about their enterprise. The dinner that followed was sponsored by Pownall Form Rental and Construction in Rock Creek.

Is your pet a star in your household?

Wednesday, April 30, 2014 Grand Forks Gazette

Unicyclist rides for climate For many of us, riding a bicycle with two wheels is hard enough. Joseph Boutilier of Victoria plans to ride a unicycle across Canada to raise awareness for climate change and pushing climate action. “It feels like the federal government is at a standstill in what should be a matter of extreme urgency,” he said. “I think it should be a national priority. Right now we’re 30 per cent off our carbon emissions targets which have already been weakened since Kyoto. We have no real sustainable energy plan for Canada.” The 23-year-old student from Victoria was in Grand Forks last week and stayed for a few days as part of his trip. Boutilier started his ride on April 5 and took two weeks to get to Grand Forks mostly along Highway 3. He plans to arrive in Ottawa in September just before Parliament opens for the fall session. For more information on Boutilier’s ride visit unityfortheclimate.ca.

Wolves undefeated at play-day

A balanced scoring effort propelled the Grand Forks Secondary (GFSS) senior boys Wolves to a 3-0 record during a rugby play-day held Friday at the school. The team crushed Selkirk from Kimberley 22-

0, squeaked by Mount Baker of Cranbrook 10-5, and then defeated Stanley Humphries of Castlegar 20-5. “The team played well but we still have some work to do,” said head coach Scott Stewart. “We had a few injuries that might keep some boys out of next week’s games in Cranbook.” The GFSS girls squad had their first action and did very well with five players playing with several players from Mount Baker, said Stewart. “We’d like to thank team sponsor Interfor for their financial support and all the fans that came out to support the boys and girls,” added Stewart. “The team is doing well considering that we are the smallest school comEmily Gentry of GFSS runs through the Nelson defenders as she tries peting in our region and to move the ball upfield during a game Friday at the school. the only single A school Craig Lindsay photo with a rugby program.”

Move for Health Day May 8 Move for Health Day was created by the World Health Organization in 2002 as an international event to promote the benefits of healthy active living. The B.C. Recreation & Parks Association (BCRPA) and the Healthy Families Initiative lead British Columbians in the promotion of this world-wide event. Grand Forks Recreation has taken on the local challenge to get friends, neighbours and family members involved in Move for Health Day. We want to bring people together to promote healthy living with a fun and inclusive community activity. On Thursday, May 8 at 5:30 p.m. everyone is invited to meet at the arena parking lot to walk, run or ride our city trails together. There is a 2 km and 5 km loop marked out for the adventurers; however, if walking a block is enough for you, don't hesitate in joining us. We welcome everyone and every ability. Our goal is to get as many community members out on Thursday, May 8 as we possibly can. You can jog, walk, ride bikes, roller blade, wheelchair or skateboard. The routes are friendly for all participants. Bring your parents, kids, grandparents, co-workers, family pet (on leash), friends and neighbors and help promote healthy active living in our little corner of the world. Staying active and leading a healthy lifestyle

can help to prevent disease and even correct some health issues. High blood pressure is one of those health issues that can often improve with regular exercise. GRAND FORKS Knowing your blood presRECREATION sure is necessary in maintaining good health. High blood pressure can go unnoticed with little or no symptoms; however, eventually the problem will catch up to you. So, it's important to get it checked regularly. Angie and Sarah from Interior Health will be at the aquatic centre lobby on Monday and Tuesday, May 5 and 6 from 8:30 to 10 a.m. for free blood pressure clinics. Angie and Sarah will check your blood pressure and offer additional advice on nutrition and personal health issues per your request. Being healthy and staying healthy is a challenge. But like most endeavours, support is key. Take the opportunity to come to the monthly blood pressure clinic and speak with Angie and Sarah regarding your health. And come out to the World Move for Health Day in Grand Forks and show your support for active living within our community. Please give us a call at 250-442-2202 for more recreation information and you can also visit our website at rdkb.com to view the May Recreation Flyer.

David Bruce Pehota May 22, 1958 - April 25, 2014

It is with great sadness that we announce David’s passing, following his long courageous battle with cancer. The beloved husband of Laurel, father of Jaclynn (Shea), Rachael (Ryan) & unborn grandchild, son of Bob & Shirley and brother to Janet (Rick), Karen (Jim) & Eric (Parveen), uncle to Dennis, Karlynn, Logan and Dalton, and stepchildren Scotty, Tyler, Lindsey, and granddaughter Ayva. He passed away peacefully at home with his wife by his side. David was born in Chilliwack BC, later moving with his family to Mackenzie BC in 1968 where he met his lifelong friends. Along David’s journey through life he stayed close to all his dearest friends, Alan, Mark, Sylvan, Ron, Dean, Sigi & Irene. David graduated from high school in 1976, and went on to obtain his 2nd class power engineer ticket. David was well respected in all the communities he resided in and will be sorely missed. A funeral service will be held in Grand Forks BC, May 1, 2014 @ 1:00pm at Grand Forks Funeral Home with interment to follow at Grand Forks Cemetery. In lieu of ﬂowers donations can be made to Doctors Without Borders.

Hazel Dergousoff Hazel passed on to her eternal home in the presence of her loving Lord Jesus on April 24, 2014 after a lengthy progressive illness. She will be loving remembered by her sister Marjorie Dergousoff, nephew Wayne Swetlishnoff, niece Wendy Sewtlishnoff and her many loving cousins and faithful friends. She was a resident of Grand Forks for many years (since the early 1940’s) and a devoted servant of her Lord in the churches she attended. Hazel was an avid sports fan, including bowling, hockey, curling and was a self-proclaimed “baseball nut”. Being very competitive, she actually participated in many of these sports. She loved to be a winner. The only annual GFI Baseball tournaments she missed were the years of her illness. As much as she loved food – baseball took precedence. Hazel was a great cook and baker – wonderful aromas filled her home. She loved to entertain. Often packages of her goodies went to those who came to mind. She dedicated many years to serving in church as Sunday School Superintendent, teacher and choir director. Her love of music was expressed in singing, playing the accordion and organ. Hazel loved flowers and enjoyed gardening. One would often find her flowers in a bouquet gracing the dinner table. Sewing, knitting, crocheting were an expression of the finery she loved. Beautiful dollies softly draped and decorated her furniture completing the warmth of her home. A Celebration of Life was held at Gospel Chapel on April 29th. Arrangements were entrusted to Grand Forks Funeral Home. Anyone wishing to make a donation in Hazel’s memory may do so to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of BC and/or the Arthritis Society of BC. Heartfelt thanks to the staff and nurses at Hardy View Lodge, Rezansoff Manor for the wonderful care and support they provided. A special thank you to Hazel’s cousin Irene Donovan, friend Gillian Matthews and Hazel’s neighbor Rose Mitchell for their help and loving care. Love you more.
