Tax News from Susan Grimes at H&R Block Are you providing care for a relative that lives with you, even if only for part of the year, who is over 18 and mentally or physically infirm or is over 65 years old and not infirm. If so, you may be eligible to claim a deduction called “caregiver” for this person on your income tax return. Like dependant claims the non-refundable credit is linked to the dependant’s income which also includes non taxable amounts like guaranteed income supplement, social assistance and workers compensation. This credit can be split if more than one person cares for the dependant but it is not usually beneficial to do so. If the disability is significant, the dependant may also qualify for the disability deduction which can also be transferred in whole or part to the caregiver. A T2201 must be filed to and accepted by CRA in order to qualify for this deduction. This deduction is also available for children under 18 who have a disability which can usually then be transferred to the parents. Qualifying disabilities can include problems with hearing, sight, walking, dressing, feeding etc. If you would like to obtain a form T2201 for your doctor to complete, please call into our office. You can also discuss your situation with a qualified tax specialist who can advise you of the tax benefits etc.

Opportunity to meet all the candidates

In preparation for the upcoming BC Provincial Election, the Shuswap Columbia District Labour Council is hosting an open house for all candidates on Thursday, April 25th. The voting public is encouraged to gather from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. at the SASCU Recreation Centre, 2600 10 Ave, Rm 1. In this informal setting, voters will have the opportunity for conversations with all the candidates running in the Shuswap elec-

toral riding. The intention is to provide a venue where individuals can approach candidates to discuss specific issues or casually make contact with all the candidates in one evening. Refreshments will be provided. The Shuswap Columbia District Labour Council (SCDLC) is a regional group of local trade unions. Reflecting the labour movement and labour issues in local communities, the SCDLC endeavours to play a

Local businesses divert food waste

Thanks to the environmental leadership of four local businesses, commercial food waste is being kept out of the Salmon Arm landfill and composted by Spa Hills Farm. “This is a huge step in our Solid Waste Management Plan moving towards zero waste. These businesses took the initiative of managing a huge portion of their waste in a totally sustainable manner. Spa Hills Farm is equipped to compost the entire range of food waste including dairy, meat products and even soiled paper napkins which can’t go into ordinary backyard composters,” says Columbia Shuswap Regional District Waste Reduction Facilitator Carmen Fennell.

The four composting stations are located at Table 24, Okanagan College Salmon Arm Campus, McDonalds and the Inner Core Parking Lot, and Spa Hills Farm is looking to provide the service to other interested businesses. “Coincidently, the Regional District is initiating a study to examine the feasibility of diverting residential and commercial food waste; however these businesses have already begun diverting on their own initiative because they wanted to do the right thing. They really are community champions.” Commercial food waste diversion programs are in place in other Regional Districts such as Nanaimo, and residential food waste diversion is being done in Grand Forks by the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary. Furthermore, many municipalities in BC have begun diverting food waste from the waste stream through curbside collection programs. “The business community in Salmon Arm continues to show leadership when it comes to reducing waste,” says Ms. Fennell. The CSRD is available to provide education and information to those looking to reduce what they send to the landfill and will be unveiling a business recognition program this summer. Mary Jo Beirnes of the Shuswap Pie Company makes use of the new collection bin while downtown property owner Bill Laird looks on. Photo contributed.

COURTESY OF HARBOURFRONT FAMILY CHIROPRACTIC

DR. WARREN GAGE D.C., F.I.C.P.A.

Dr. JENICA SORBAN B.Sc. , D.C.

have been able to explain how we are not simply victims of our parent’s genes. While it is agreed our genes carry the basic information required for life, it is actually our environment and the positive and negative stresses around us that determine how our genes function. The description of this has been termed “epigenetics” where “epi” means “above” or “over” the genetic control. Without getting too scientific, the basis of epigenetics is that lifestyle and environment such as nutrition, stress, physical activity, behaviour, working habits, smoking and alcohol consumption all affect the expression of genes. What our nervous system senses around us determines how our bodies will function. So from a chiropractic point of view, correction of nerve interference becomes a lot more significant. Subluxation (nerve interference) distorts how we perceive our environment and interferes with our ability to respond to our surroundings. What we see every day in our office following spinal adjustments are people reporting a clearer functioning nervous system and increased sense of well-being. Research is now confirming what we have long seen in practice. Correction of vertebral subluxation to remove nerve interference has far more impact on one’s health than a simple reduction of pain. In fact, subluxation correction influences all sorts of basic bodily functions including DNA function and overall health. Chiropractic is an essential part of a healthy lifestyle. Call Harbourfront Family Chiropractic at (250) 8030224 for an appointment today.

Eyebright

This herb has been used by many prominent herbalists such as Nicholas Culpeper (October 18, 1616 – January 10, 1654). Culpeper was an English botanist, herbalist, and astrologer; his published books include The English Physician (1652) and the Complete Herbal (1653). This herb has been used traditionally in the treatment of eye conditions and hay fever. Usually, a poultice is made and applied over the eye in conditions such as sties, blepharitis, and other eye infections. Although herbalists have been using this herb for centuries, no scientific studies have been done to prove its benefits. These days, eyebright, or Euphrasia, is combined with bilberry in various eye preparation formulas, and is available in stores that sell herbal remedies. It is preferable to purchase the best quality as it is sometimes contaminated. The volatile oil present in eyebright is believed to be helpful for the eyes. Tests suggest that when it is applied, it’s activated by sunlight to work on the conjunctiva, the cornea, the sclerotic choroid, the ciliary muscles, the iris, the suspensory ligaments, both posterior and anterior view chambers, the lens, retina and optic nerves. This herb strengthens and soothes in these areas, often improving eyesight as well. Herbalists in the past have used it to treat and reverse cataracts, and it has also been shown to have hypotensive properties which can be directly helpful for the eyes. This herb also has an antiseptic, antibacterial effect which helps to further control infection, and its anti-inflammatory properties reduce inflammation of the eyes when applied externally. It may be useful in the treatment of cataracts and failing eyesight. However, it must be emphasized that more research is needed for treating these conditions. Eyebright is indeed one of the useful herbs in the treatment of various eye conditions, but it is recommended it be used after consulting with a healthcare practitioner.

This is for general information only and not a substitute for medical advice. No action/treatment or inaction/non treatment should be taken without consulting your physician. Readers should consult appropriate health professionals on any matter relating to their health and well-being.

It is time for another update to the “Mall Arkey Dictionary.” These are the words that kids create out-of-the-blue or existing words that they give a completely new meaning. The Mall Arkey Dictionary has introduced you to words like “TollFreezer” (the guy who phones your house around supper time), “Eevo” (Evil) and “Hotent” (A place to sleep when you are on vacation). So here are a few new terms/definitions that we’d like to run by our readers before we publish them in the 4th edition of our continually updating dictionary. Stamina – “Dad, the Bobcat is out of stamina!” my nine-year-old pointed out when his older brother tried to start our skid-steer loader. “You mean out of fuel?” I replied. “Ya, it has no stamina!” Clean diesel – “Dad, does the Bobcat need gas, diesel or fresh diesel to help give it some stamina?” asked my nine-year-old. “Just plain ol’ diesel should be fine,” I replied. I still haven’t figured out what fresh diesel is compared to regular diesel. Scramble – Not the eggs, but rather a game played with wooden tiles that have individual letters on them. You then try to put together words on a board and earn points. So when you hear, “Let’s play Scramble,” you know they really mean Scrabble. Based on some of the words they tried to create, I guess calling the game Scramble makes sense. Tobacco sauce – a hot sauce with a spicy flavour made from hot peppers, vinegar and salt. Thankfully, there isn’t any actual tobacco in the ingredients, and from what I understand it isn’t too addictive. (This one is courtesy of my nephews and nieces). That completes the 4th edition of the Mall Arkey Dictionary. I have young minds working overtime right now to come up new stuff for the 5th edition. They think they are underpaid until I show them how much the “Scrabbled Eggs” and “Tobacco Sauce” costs.

LOCAL LOG HOUSE ON MAGAZINE COVER

Because of an extensive interview, Duncan and Vivian Morris were expecting a five-page magazine spread on the substantial log home their company built in Blind Bay. What they didn’t expect was to see its picture on the front cover of the May 2013 issue of the prestigious Log Home Living magazine. The eight large, beautiful photographs were taken by their friend Harry Ogloff, whose pictures they always admired. The cover picture is also on page 45. Traditional Log Homes designed and built the 2,700 sq. ft. home for Jim and Wendy Barton of Chicago. Interior design was by Kathy Renwick, owner of K C Interior Designs. Many other consultants were used, and some intended to have suppliers from the coast. Duncan insisted that local suppliers be used, and Vivian believes about $800,000 was brought to Salmon Arm trades and stores that could have been lost. Jim Barton was a little boy when his parents began holidaying on the Shuswap. He and Wendy brought their children here every summer, and now the grandchildren are coming to the Shuswap. It is their favourite place. The log home is ideal for the family, and it will be perfect for Jim and Wendy when they retire.

NEW CANADIAN TIRE STORE IS AMAZING

The former Zellers’ location in Piccadilly has been transformed. When Canadian Tire opened its new store on Thurs., April 11 at 8 a.m., I was one of the first of the dozen to enter. Three employees stood not far away, and the one we congratulated was Gary Best, the merchandise manager who was at the old store for many years. With no Zellers, Fields or Walmart in Salmon Arm since August 1, 2012, it is evident that Canadian Tire is stocked with many, many household items in order to fill the gap. Row upon row, in fact. Thank you.

www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca

The new store is more than double in size to the old one. A grand opening will take place on May 2 when we will meet the franchise owner, David Cross of Edmonton, and general manager Glenn Breugom who had been the district manager and moved here from Vernon.

MARKS DOUBLES ITS STORE

At the back of Canadian Tire, not far from the mall entrance is Marks, which carries men’s and women’s clothing. It has more than double the space it had in Centenoka where it was known as Mark’s Work Wearhouse. Like Canadian Tire, its aisles are very wide. Grand opening is May 2. Marks is a Canadian clothing retailer owned by Canadian Tire.

“I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU DECLINED AN iPHONE!”

An out-of-town fellow who gets this column by e-mail was shocked when he read that I did not accept the iPhone that my sons let me use for a day. He said the iPhone 5 is small, thin and light and would fit in my pants pocket. But the one I used was not a 5 and it had a bulky rubber case. Women’s pockets are half the size of men’s and that’s why many women carry their phone in their hand. Sometimes they set it on a store’s counter and it gets stolen. One of my sons used an identical Nokia phone and it took excellent pictures. Even though he uses an iPhone now and it takes even better pictures, he is keeping the Nokia because he can listen to CBC radio when he is out for a walk. I prefer to take pictures with my small digital camera because I have learned how to transfer pictures to my MacBook Pro. I still want to learn how to file my pictures in iPhoto so all those for this column are in their own folder, and in files by the year, and family pictures are in their own folder, in files by the year. “So the answer, Sally, is to throw away your Nokia, get back to the iPhone your sons wisely gave you. Nobody uses Nokia any longer except if you are happy with a dumb phone. Nokia, like Blackberry, is a dead and dying company!”

MARINE PARK NEEDS A NEW SIGN

The park is sometimes incorrectly called Peace Park because when it was opened, peace was being promoted by the Rotary Club and doctors. According to an article in the

April 3 issue of another paper, Physicians for Global Survival has lost its charitable status. It is one of 880 charitable organizations audited by Canada Revenue Agency to have this happen. Don’t you agree that it is time for a more modern sign at the entrance to Marine Park? Delete these two: “Dedicated to international peace and understanding” and “Participation by Canadian Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War.” Keep the Rotary crest and use the city’s new logo.

MOVE SOMETHING IN YOUR HOUSE

In order to keep my mind sharp, I move something in my home once a week. Once it was the box of tissues near my recliner. Now I have to move my whole body to reach it. Last Saturday I moved my hairbrush from one bathroom drawer to another. What are you moving?

He said we should buy organic. Foods to avoid are canola, soy, zucchini, corn and sugar beets. Use olive and safflower oil. Have you noticed that some of your grandchildren are very tall? I have. Genetically modified plants, intended to make them grow tall and be more productive, may be making children grow tall.

NEW TESTAMENT WAS WRITTEN IN GREEK

In 1991 when I looked for a church in Salmon Arm that had a service in English because I decided to leave the Ukrainian Orthodox Church in Vernon, I chose Anglican because it had similar customs and beliefs and it had candles. I miss the incense, though, so I requested it in my living will, at my funeral. In Anglican I found a church that is quite open minded. I thought of it often during the Easter services. The New Testament was written 40-70 years after the crucifixion, according to Bishop Spong, and not by eye witnesses. It was written in the Lakeshore News of that day, in Greek, a language that none of the disciples spoke. The gospels contain interpretive material, according to the intellectual bishop, and not literal text. Google Bishop Spong. sallys1@telus.net • 250-832-4831 The views and opinions expressed in this article are those of Sally Scales and do not necessarily represent those of Lakeshore News and its staff.

New parents disheartened by vehicle break-in at hospital

The evening of March 17th this year I gave birth to my beautiful son at Shuswap Lake General Hospital. The nurses were amazing towards us for the nights that we had to stay because Liam had jaundice. We felt safe and loved until the morning of the 21st, when one of the nurses came in to the room to tell us that our car and two other vehicles had been broken into. Who thinks to themselves, I am going to go to the hospital parking lot and break into a few cars and see what I can get? The people at the hospital are either sick, having a baby,

visitors or staff. Do they not have a heart? We didn’t even have anything for them to steal. We had a brand new baby and a car full of broken glass. Thankfully, one of the janitoral staff had a Shop Vac so that we could quickly make the car safe for our baby’s first ride home. Because of the inconsiderate people that damaged our car, we had to take $300 from our savings (that we saved while I was on maternity leave) to replace our window. If they get to read this, I want them to think of the hurt they caused on a big day. We didn’t do anything to deserve this

bill, and my baby deserved a warmer, safer drive home. The day the break-in happened we also heard that the hospital only had one security guard and he only came out for a minute at 12:00 a.m. Ridiculous? I think so. The hospital has amazing staff, always there for you; but we now need to work on the security so this doesn’t happen to another family that is excited to finally go home and then find out they now have an unexpected bill and a vehicle they can no longer use until they clean it up.

Letters to the Editor Thanks for literacy support

I am writing this letter on behalf of the Literacy Alliance of the Shuswap Society (LASS) to express our heartfelt thanks to all of the community volunteers and supporters who wrote letters and emails of support when our literacy coordination funding was suddenly eliminated in February. Although this was initially a shocking and disappointing situation for LASS, we quickly witnessed a strong and passionate outpouring of community support for literacy and LASS. Many letters and emails were written by dedicated One to One reading volunteers, computer tutors and learners, adult literacy learners, community organizations, local government, and local businesses all of whom recognize the critical importance of addressing literacy needs in the North Okanagan-Shuswap. As a result of this incredible support for community literacy, LASS’s coordination funding from Decoda (our provincial literacy organization) via the Ministry of Education has

been restored. We would also like to publicly recognize and thank our Shuswap MLA, George Abbott, and the staff at the Salmon Arm Observer who played key roles in helping to get our funding restored. In addition to this funding, LASS recently received a Community Gaming Grant and a New Horizons for Seniors Grant. Now LASS can continue to move forward to help address the literacy needs in the North Okanagan-Shuswap. Thank you again to all of our dedicated community supporters. You answered our plea for help and made your voices clearly heard when our funding was drastically eliminated. You have truly made a difference in the lives of literacy learners in our community and we thank you for your energy, commitment, and passion for literacy. Sincerely, Jennifer Findlay Literacy Outreach Coordinator Literacy Alliance of the Shuswap Society

Capricorn, lay low for awhile rather than drumming up some trouble. Tempting as it is to stir the pot, it may cause more difficulties for you in the long run.

AQUARIUS

Aquarius, although you have a few projects on your to-do list, you can’t seem to get started. Instead of looking at the entire list, tackle one task at a time and you’ll get the job get done.

PISCES

Pisces, turn your thoughts to creative efforts and you’ll find the days will just fly by. Before you know it, the weekend will be here.

ARIES

Aries, take time to sort through some of the paperwork on your desk. You could find there is something important that you overlooked that needs to be addressed.

TAURUS

There are a few things you can’t seem to work out in your head, Taurus. A better idea may be to put everything on paper and perhaps the answer will jump out.

GEMINI

Gemini, there will be a few moments this week when you seem to have a breakthrough. Maybe it’s in a relationship or you have just the right answers at work.

CANCER

Surprising events are in store as you continue to change your views about life-altering events, Cancer. You may find your master plan is entirely turned on its head.

LEO

Leo, your energy level is so revved up that others won’t be able to keep up with you. You may have to slow down a little to let others catch up.

VIRGO

Virgo, others find it difficult to change your opinion once you have your mind set on something. But it still helps to consider if the direction you’re heading is the right way.

LIBRA

Libra, you may be feeling a little homesick, especially if you are away on business or on vacation. Try to make the most of the situation even if you’re feeling nostalgic.

Letters to the Editor

Flat rate system protects both shops and consumers

Dear Mr. Campbell, I am one of those flat rate “technicians” of which you speak. I am not a mechanic and I deserve every dollar I generate for myself and the company I work for because I repair every vehicle to the best of my ability and as quickly as I can to minimize inconvenience to you the consumer. I spent four years acquiring my certification and a lifetime maintaining my knowledge. More money has been spent on my independently-owned tools than what you may have spent on your last vehicle and only to make sure I can repair your car or truck both efficiently and properly. My employer has invested both time and money in making sure all of my training is up-todate and to be sure I have what equipment I need to repair your vehicle. Said employer absorbs the costs when things go wrong, but also benefits when they go right because they provide me the specialty tools I need, the training to keep me up-to-date, the people to take care of you and the support to provide for my family. Flat rate is a standard that was set up in 1922 by Chilton Motors to provide a fair system for all, (automotive dealerships are not the only ones to adhere to this idea); to give the buyer a fair estimate of time/dollars involved and the technician an idea of what the repair should take. In this day and age, would you really take your car to someone who provided an I-can-tell-you-howmuch-when-I’m-done kind of estimate? Your rationale says, if I am good at my job, and I spent the time training and on tools and then I worked hard and took care of you the customer; I or my company should be punished. It is people with ideals such as yours that have left this industry with a lack of qualified people. It’s only a matter of time and your repair costs will double because the connotation of whom we are (your automotive repair technicians) will

have driven any trainable prospects away. Already high school graduates believe it’s better to be anything but a trade’s person, because doctors, lawyers, dentists, government employee, anything but “mechanic” will guarantee that nobody will argue about their benefits and value nor will they degrade their efforts. Like in any industry, not all things are created equal–just ask me to see my list of credentials. Would you pick a doctor just because he would charge less? When was the last time you went in for a haircut and insisted you only paid half the posted rate because your coif took only half the time as the guy before you? Get a quote to fix your roof, do you calculate the time it took to actually do it versus the estimate and then reduce what you pay because it seemed too expensive? It is a get-what-you-pay-for world. Yes, cheaper is out there. However, I have to say those are my children travelling on roads with people who have had their brakes repaired by someone who might just be “cheap,” but not qualified. Barry, like anyone, if you were quoted a price and believed it was unfair, then just say so. Nobody has hidden the reality of the charges; I will presume you are a fully-grown adult with full faculties and you have the option to say no. Make your decision to buy or not but do not cut down the “flat rate” system because it is set up to protect the consumer as much as to protect me. Chris Middleton, Blind Bay

By Stephanie MorinDavis Much can be said about a community as beautiful and laid-back as Salmon Arm. Visiting tourists do not travel hundreds or thousands of kilometres for a weekend of incredible shopping, a selection of top-drawer musical extravaganzas, or the intellectual stimulation of a high-powered motivational speaker like Tony Robins or Bill Gates. Instead, they flock here every spring and summer to absorb the scenery, bask in the sunshine, and play in our sparkling waters. For the past ten years, writers and readers from British Columbia, Alberta, and Saskatchewan have converged on Salmon Arm to take part in the Word on the Lake Festival. Here, they immerse themselves in panel discussions, workshops, presentations, and blue pencil sessions with notable Canadian authors. Over the next few weeks, I will introduce Word on the Lake 2013 presenters, in alphabetical order, and the festival activities open to the general public. Festival presenter George Bowering was born in Penticton, British Columbia in 1935. Following his service as an aerial photographer in the Royal Canadian Air Force, he attended the University of British

Columbia and attained a BA in English and a MA in History. Bowering’s academic career includes teaching literature at the Universities of Calgary, Western Ontario, and Simon Fraser. Most remarkable is his prolific literary career, authoring over 80 books.

This distinguished novelist, poet, editor, and critic is a two-time recipient of the Governor General’s award for Literary Excellence, and has been named to the Order of Canada and the Order of British Columbia. Between 2002 and 2004, Bowering served as Canada’s Parliamentary Poet Laureate. Also in 2002, he was acknowledged as one of British Columbia’s most influential people, by the Vancouver Sun. George Bowering will present a captivating discussion entitled, How I Wrote Certain Of My Books. This presentation would be excellent for members of book clubs to attend.

A musical fantasy

Enderby will soon get a chance to hear the lush romantic cello of Michael Kevin Jones. The Enderby & District Arts Council is presenting his only Okanagan performance, as part of his 2013 North American tour. A young British cellist, already highly regarded on the international music scene, Michael studied cello at the Royal College of Music in London, winning prizes there for solo and chamber music playing. He was chosen to perform for the British Royal family and later went on to study at the Kolner Hochschule thanks to a scholarship from the German government. Michael recorded the complete Bach cello suites in New York for the Metropolitan Museum of Art using a Stradivarius cello dated 1667. He will be playing selections from Bach’s suites for solo cello and also a newly re-discovered Rodrigo score, “Como una Fantasia.” After the great Spanish composer´s death in 1999, his solo cello music remained lost, unknown and unplayed in the country of its origin. Michael will be making the first commercial recording of this piece during 2014. His entirely acoustic performance requires great concentration and skill, which, according to reviews, he has in spades. Don’t miss this opportunity to hear this outstanding musician. Concert is on Tuesday, April 23, St. Andrews United Church, Enderby, at 7:30 p.m. Refreshments will be available. Tickets only at the door; adults $15, youth (18 & under) $10.

Mayr presently teaches jazz guitar at Jam Music Lab Conservatory in Vienna, and has performed in musicals like “West Side Story,” Annie Get Your Gun,” and “Camp Rock.” Both of these talented musicians together create some amazing sounds.

Last year was my first year of doing the Canadian Cancer Society’s Relay for Life, and it was something that I had always wanted to do. The ladies on our team were very welcoming towards a new member and it felt good to be with women who were so kind and friendly. Watching how they put their hearts out towards people and how determined they were to join together to fight this horrible disease impressed me that it was the right thing to do. I walked all night in honour of my Mom. She had passed away earlier that year, at the age of 92 after fighting a double battle of breast cancer and finally lost the battle to bladder and lung cancer. Besides being an incredible mom, wife, and grandma, friend and community leader; she was also described by people who knew her as a genuine lady, saint of a woman, and a fighter. Walking helps me to support

everything that she stood for. When we would go to the Cross Cancer Clinic in Edmonton we would see families that represented all demographics, but sitting in the waiting rooms they were all silently bonded together and that is oddly where we saw humanity at its best. Struggling together, trying to maintain their dignity, and doing their best to cope both physically and mentally against something that is so cruel to the person that cancer inflicts and to their loved ones. When I walked that night, I hoped that those who had suffered, were suffering, and to those who were going to suffer would know that they are not alone, and that others care, even if we don’t know your name. It was a testament to them and their courage. That is why I walked, and why I will continue to walk until I am unable to do so! Donna Vienneau, Blind Bay

Occasionally, you just might see them drive by in a green or blue truck, with an insignia on the doors, and an identification name on the tailgate. Fishery officers drive the green ones; conservation officers, the blue ones. But just who are these guys and gals who want to diligently patrol, to guard our wildlife, fish, and natural resources? A credo of “do more with less” reigns now, with budget restraints, policy changes and downsizing. As a retired fishery officer, I suppose I’m free to explain what we were about, and who we really are to the average citizen, hunter, and angler. You could say it starts out as a dream; a young boy with a fishin’ pole, can of worms, and family dog, working the local creek to catch a trout. A huntin’ or fishin’ family, a grandpa or uncle who took you on your first hunt as a kid. In any case, it ignites the beginnings of a love of the outdoors, fish, wildlife, mountains, rivers, lakes, and streams. Going back many years, a game warden was an older chap, usually a war vet with a military background, who joined the BC Game Branch. Federally, patrolmen and fishery officers have a long history of serving all across Canada, including the north. Today, you need a college degree requiring three years in school. Back in 1980, I was fortunate when a DFO patrolman’s position came up in Salmon Arm. With a background in forestry/military/infantry, then regimental police, logging, trapping, I qualified for the job. Back then, it was a pike pole/chainsaw/pick-up, to clean up spawning creeks. Then, a ticketbook and knowledge of regulations took me on patrols to fishing sites, counting salmon (coho) in fall, up to early winter, in 41 different streams. That all changed in about 1996, as patrolmen began to be phased out. Regional orientation took three weeks, and consisted of testing one’s knowledge of all types of fishing gear; as well as fishing vessel regulations; identification of most ocean fishes. I had volumes to study on method of catch, monitoring, regulations, enforcement, aboriginal, commercial, and sport regulation, habitat/

environment – the list goes on. Then it was off to Regina, to the RCMP training academy for 8 weeks; to be trained in Drill/driving, swimming, fitness, self-defence, law, and firearms. While all this happened, many changes were coming down the pipe, a good number of them political. Ministers come and went. Much policy change happened. Aboriginal fisheries were a hot-button issue. So was allocation of the resources–halibut, salmon, herring, and prawn. Buy-back of the commercial fleet (to the Native sector), sport fishing restrictions, salmon run sizes, concerns/issues; directives, meetings, enforcement protocol. Meanwhile, the personnel in those green trucks continue to get calls on poaching, toxic spills, and other habitat issues. They do angler checks, reports, (spending 2-3 days per week in the office). As a Peace Officer, he/she must know about all aspects of BC fisheries regulations. Other knowledge required: wildlife/trapping; Federal acts; pollution regulations; the Game Act. It’s necessary to carry three ticket books! And there’s more–sport fishing, Federal fisheries’ policies; appearance notices; warn cards, awareness of constitutional rights (juveniles are treated differently; as are aboriginal offenders). With changing times in the Dept. of Fisheries & Oceans, and tremendous rising pressure on the environment from mining, gas/oil exploration, development, and urban sprawl; more than ever, those well-meaning officers in the blue and green trucks are sorely needed. With their training, and years of acquired knowledge, most of them dearly care about what is happening around them. It’s unfortunate that the powers that be can’t get past their noble budgetary planning, policies, and arrogance, and just go on a field inspection, enforcement patrol, or spend hours, in a mosquito-infested swamp, on a pitch black night, trying to catch a repeat bush-savvy salmon poacher. We’ve been there, done that. Next week, some interesting and comical poaching stories for ya!

The Downtown Twilight Family Fun Ride is a celebration of all things bike on May 24 from 6:30pm – 7:30pm. It starts with a “come-one-come-all” ride through downtown, hosted by the newly-created

Shuswap Bicycle Club, complete with great family activities and a few silly ones thrown in for good measure. We are also working on adding a cycling movie following the ride—stay tuned for updates. The week of May 26th to June 1st will be the second annual Bike to Work Week. This event will engage the community in friendly competition to encourage avid cyclists and new riders alike to try the trip to work on bike. Challenge a friend or co-worker; challenge yourself and discover how fun it is. Shuswap Bicycle Month partners include the Shuswap Hut and Trail Alliance, Downtown Salmon Arm, Columbia Shuswap Regional District & Shuswap Tourism, the Salmon Arm Public Art Gallery, the Shuswap Bicycle Club, Skookum Cycle, Ridetech and Trailheads Cycle.

Rep lacrosse team seeks new members

By Randy Reynolds, coach & director of the Okanagan Sun Devils Field Lacrosse Club March Madness was on the lacrosse field this past month and Okanagan talent was leading the charge with the Okanagan Sun Devils Field Lacrosse Club! The Okanagan Sun Devils are a rep field lacrosse club based out of UBC Okanagan in Kelowna. They currently have 2 active teams: a U18 and U15 Club. The program is designed to showcase top lacrosse players on the US stage so they can graduate to play at the University level in the USA or Canada. The program teaches the basic systems of field lacrosse to advanced players. The younger guys play more fun weekends and the top talent will graduate to the U18 Top Team. The U18 team is a showcase team who plays in high school tournaments throughout the USA. SD players are required to maintain top marks in school to maintain eligibility on the team roster. This is a great concept that makes school just as important as staying fit and the players are working hard

to make it a reality. This past month saw the U18’s go undefeated in round robin play at a tournament in Bellingham March 9 and 10. They finally fell short to a high powered Skyline High School Team out of Seattle. The Sun Devils surprised a lot of people down there and had fans coming to watch this unannounced Canadian team who were rocking their division. Key North Okanagan players were Ryan Sarazin, Thomas Landels, Nick Hartel, Brayden Hoggarth, Liam Drabuik, Marlon Forrest, Steele Pellitier and Ryan Pelky. The end of March had the U15 Junior High School Sun Devils invade Wenatchee Washington for their yearly Jamboree. Our kids come out flying and caught

all their competition off guard. The Jr Sun Devils won every game and piled up some great goals by running strong systems consistently each game. This was a big stepping stone for our program; it’s designed to get players game up to the next level so we can play against the top American teams out there. Our guys want to go to university and the scouts only show up for playoff games of good tournaments. So we need to come out flying at every tournament to make it to Sunday afternoon.

These past weekends looked very good. Our guys were running disciplined systems and we controlled the neutral zone, which lead to fast breaks and a lot of quick goals. It’s been a lot of work to get everyone on the same page but we seem to be getting it and the future looks very bright! We had some young North Okanagan talent really step up for the U15’s like Drew Bannister, Steele Peltier, Jake Pellieter, Mykl Drabuik, Jordan Barr, Ethan Dodge and Conner Forrest. Another local team member is Carson Hoult, of Blind Bay. The Sun Devils could have space for you if you’re a serious lacrosse player. Contact me right away for summer, fall and winter field lacrosse programs, at 250-9384111 or email randy. reynolds@century21. ca. U15 is the team to learn the ropes and is for ages 13-15.

SUDOKU

Capricorn, lay low for awhile rather than drumming up some trouble. Tempting as it is to stir the pot, it may cause more difficulties for you in the long run.

AQUARIUS

Aquarius, although you have a few projects on your to-do list, you can’t seem to get started. Instead of looking at the entire list, tackle one task at a time and you’ll get the job get done.

PISCES

Pisces, turn your thoughts to creative efforts and you’ll find the days will just fly by. Before you know it, the weekend will be here.

ARIES

Aries, take time to sort through some of the paperwork on your desk. You could find there is something important that you overlooked that needs to be addressed.

TAURUS

There are a few things you can’t seem to work out in your head, Taurus. A better idea may be to put everything on paper and perhaps the answer will jump out.

GEMINI

Gemini, there will be a few moments this week when you seem to have a breakthrough. Maybe it’s in a relationship or you have just the right answers at work.

CANCER

Surprising events are in store as you continue to change your views about life-altering events, Cancer. You may find your master plan is entirely turned on its head.

LEO

Leo, your energy level is so revved up that others won’t be able to keep up with you. You may have to slow down a little to let others catch up.

VIRGO

Virgo, others find it difficult to change your opinion once you have your mind set on something. But it still helps to consider if the direction you’re heading is the right way.

LIBRA

Libra, you may be feeling a little homesick, especially if you are away on business or on vacation. Try to make the most of the situation even if you’re feeling nostalgic.

SAGITTARIUS

Sagittarius, there are a few puzzle pieces that you need to get into place and then you’ll have everything worked out. Reward yourself with a night out.

MURIEL MAY ARNOLD (nee Pullin) February 10, 1925 - April 9, 2013

Muriel May Arnold (nee Pullin) passed away peacefully in her sleep in the evening of April 9, 2013 at Hillside Village in Salmon Arm at the age of 88. Born in Thornbury, England to Ivy and Jesse Pullin, she arrived in Canada in April 1925 at two months of age with her older sister Violet and her parents. They then embarked on the CP TransͲConƟnental train across Canada to homestead in Balmoral. Muriel was predeceased by her husband Frank in 1992, daughter Stella in 1972, son Ricky in 1978 and grandchild Stacey in 1984. She is survived by 6 children, Michael (Judy) of Revelstoke, Ron (Karen Warner) of Kelowna, Evelyn (Paul) Hundt of Kelowna, Barbara (Tim) Pennell of Clearwater, Mel (Linda) of Salmon Arm and Shelley (Terry) Colton of Williams Lake. Muriel will also be lovingly missed by 13 grandchildren and 18 great grandchildren. Muriel loved and was loved back as a daughter, sister, wife, aunt, mother, grandmother, great grandmother and friend. In her later years the grandchildren and great grandchildren were her greatest joy. Mom took great pride in her family’s English heritage, their farming background and making the best of what they had. She was also proud of the fact that she started school at the age of 4 so that there would be enough pupils to keep the Balmoral school open. Mom and AunƟe Violet lost their mother when mom was only 10 years old, so as pioneer girls they learned to do the baking and housework out of necessity. Mom’s baking only got beƩer with Ɵme and was enjoyed by everyone, especially her pies, breads, chiīon cakes and cinnamon buns. Her homemaking skills also included kniƫng countless sweaters and hundreds of pairs of miƩens for the kids and grandkids. Every one of us can remember making snowballs and snowmen wearing a pair of her kniƩed miƩens. AŌer the family farm was sold in 1971, Mom worked for a few years candling and packaging eggs in Sorrento and then a number of years at Sorrento Centre unƟl she eventually reƟred. ReƟrement wasn’t the end of her acƟvity though as she conƟnued to sit on the Salmon Arm Fair Board, acted as strata council secretary and worked hard to get around seeing all of her grandkids. Mom loved playing soŌball and won a championship while living in Victoria in her teens. Watching baseball remained one of her favorite pasƟmes. She was like a kid in a candy shop the night she went to see the Arizona Diamondbacks play in Phoeniǆ. Mom devoted much of her volunteer Ɵme to local children and youth programs. From the Notch Hill children’s Christmas fund to many years as a 4-H leader and councillor, she helped many kids learn important life skills. She was very proud to have received her Canadian CiƟzenship in the NaƟon’s capital when she was chaperoning a group of 4-H members to KƩawa. She felt honoured when she was asked to cut the ribbon at the 100th celebraƟon of the Salmon Arm Fall Fair. The family wishes to thank the many good friends Mom had in the Notch Hill, Sorrento area and at Macintosh Grove & Piccadilly Terrace. Your friendship meant a lot to Mom and to us as family as we knew you were all there for her. We would be unable to count the number of card games mom shared with friends in her 88 years. The family also thanks Dr. LipseƩ (reƟred) who helped mom deliver most of us children into the world and the many health care workers who cared for mom at diīerent Ɵmes over the years. Kur appreciaƟon of our Mom will be forever. When you were born, you were crying. And everyone around you was smiling. You lived your life so that when you died You’re the one who is smiling And everyone around you is crying. A celebraƟon of Muriel’s life will be held at the Seniors 5th Avenue Centre (170 5th Ave. SE Salmon Arm) on Saturday April 20th from 2-5pm. Memorial donaƟons in Muriel’s name can be made to either the Sorrento Centre, or the Alzheimer’s Society. Online condolences can be sent through Muriel’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com Arrangements are in the care of Bower’s Funeral Services, Salmon Arm.

ARTHUR HERBERT LEHMANN 1927 - 2013

Arthur Lehmann, 85, passed peacefully on April 11, 2013 at Shuswap Lake General Hospital, Salmon Arm, BC. He was born in Riga, Latvia to parents Ludwig and Adele on May 22, 1927. When he was a year old, his parents immigrated to western Canada, ÄŽrst to Bruderheim, Alberta and then to Flatbush and later Westlock, where Arthurâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s father farmed. Arthur tried his hand at farming, but showed a mechanical apĆ&#x;tude, so when a job opportunity presented in the Prince George area in BriĆ&#x;sh Columbia, he followed up on it. He worked as a millwright in a number of area sawmills and later for Canfor in Prince George. He and his then wife Phoebe raised their family on acreage there. Arthur would live some ÄŽĹ&#x152;y years in Prince George. He spent his reĆ&#x;rement years in the ShuswapÍŹN. Kkanagan, ÄŽrst in Tappen on the lakeshore, then in Blind Bay and most recently, Enderby. Art rarely had a problem ÄŽlling his hours. He was a hobby prospector. Kne small holding he worked for some years was in the Barkerville area. He was an avid outdoorsman, a lover of the sun, always well tanned during the warm season, and supporter of that life-style. He was a keen photographer for much of his life. He was a versaĆ&#x;le handyman as well, spending countless hours in his shop through the years. He was a great Í&#x17E;ÄŽÇ&#x2020;erÍ&#x; of items that needed a restoraĆ&#x;ve touch. He was also a part of a network comprising his large eÇ&#x2020;tended family, and friends, with whom he kept a regular computer linking. Art met Carol as a single father and together they parented a blended teenage family unĆ&#x;l they were out on their own. Art and Carol were together several decades and parted amicably, remaining so from that Ć&#x;me on. In the mid 90â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Art met and married his wife and best friend, Jean, the couple enjoying many like interests through the years since. Art will be deeply missed by his loving wife, Jean, his three children, Edward (Sandra), Calgary, Louise, Nanaimo, and Linda (Bill), Prince George. He is also survived by one sibling, his sister Elfriede (Dennis), Surrey, her son Gary (Mirja), Langley, his ÄŽrst wife, mother of his children, Phoebe (John) Nipawin, SK, Carol, Salmon Arm, and her children, Helen, Prince George, Karen, Malakwa, and Harry (Sandra), Victoria as well as Jeanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s children Howard (Tamara), Barrie, KN, Heather (Mark), Milwaukee, WI, Joanne (MarĆ&#x;n), Green Bay, WI, and grandchildren, Daniel, Delta, Shyla, Prince George, Kelli, Prince George, PaĆŤ, Prince George, Mindy (Eric), Calgary, Jamie (Mike), Kelowna, BriĆŠany, Calgary, Jesse, Burnaby, Joe and Nick, Green Bay, Noah and Noelle, Milwaukee and Jack and Eva, Barrie, KN.

OUR ANGEL It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of DONNA LEAF on Saturday, April 6, 2013 at the palliaĆ&#x;ve care unit of the Nanaimo hospital. Donna was born in Kamloops, BC on December 18, 1939, and spent her enĆ&#x;re lifeĆ&#x;me in Falkland, BC. She met and married her husband, Ozzie in 1961, where they built their home and conĆ&#x;nued to live in Falkland. She was a wonderful, caring wife, mother and grandmother, sister and daughter to her family. Surviving her are her husband Ozzie, son ScoĆŠ (Holly), Daughter Apryl (Don), grandchildren Coho, Thomas and Celia, sisters Sandra and Jo-anne, Brothers, Jack (Barb), Jim (Heather) and several nieces and nephews. She was also a loyal friend to many. Donna was proud of her community and was involved in numerous projects. One of her cherished accomplishments was co-conceiving and helping to see a community church built in Falkland, bringing together representaĆ&#x;ves of several faiths, volunteers and serving as treasurer for the church society. She was one of the founders of the Falkland Heritage Park and Museum, and Donna enjoyed working there regularly with her friends, including taking on the duĆ&#x;es of treasurer for a number of years. She was also treasurer for the Community AssociaĆ&#x;on in Falkland for siÇ&#x2020; years and she always looked forward to volunteering her services for the annual stampede. She was a member of several clubs including the BronceĆŠes, who were cheerleaders, fundraisers and rumoured owners of the Falkland Broncs, a local menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s baseball team. Donna did fundraising and organizing for the Falkland Stampede Yueenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s CommiĆŠee, a youth ambassador pageant for several years. She enjoyed decoraĆ&#x;ng the community hall for dances and themed occasions as part of her involvement in local clubs. She cherished all special occasions and decorated her home inside and out for Easter, Christmas, Halloween and parĆ&#x;es. She rarely forgot anyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s birthday and sent many a sincere greeĆ&#x;ng card to friends and relaĆ&#x;ons. Donna worked in McClounies store in Falkland for a few years before marrying Ozzie and starĆ&#x;ng their family, then taking over duĆ&#x;es as company bookkeeper for the family hardware store. In 1987, aĹ&#x152;er being in business for some 40 years, the family store moved to a new building, and Donna eÇ&#x2020;panded and ran the giĹ&#x152;ware secĆ&#x;on in addiĆ&#x;on to working at the store. She and Ozzie conĆ&#x;nued to operate the hardware for another 7 years at its new locaĆ&#x;on. She also ran a Ĺ&#x2021;oral arranging business for a few years providing aĆŠracĆ&#x;ve accents to local events and weddings. Donna adored children and babies and doted on them. She was an accomplished baker and the house was always full of the enĆ&#x;cing scents of her dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s creaĆ&#x;ons. She loved having family in and making a great dinner for everyone and we are all going to miss those. She loved Ĺ&#x2021;owers and always had a fresh bouĆ&#x2039;uet on the table. She also had a knack for design around the house, in the yard and in her apparel. She sewed clothing for family as well as drapery for the house. She was interested in local history and heritage as well as other cultures, and was not afraid to try new things. She liked dancing, picnics, traveling, curling and Nordic skiing. She Ć&#x;relessly researched and compiled several volumes of a family history for both sides of her family tree, complete with photos. This included informaĆ&#x;on gleaned from archives as far Ĺ&#x2021;ung as Europe, Australia and the Falkland Islands. Donna marveled at natureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wonders, she loved siĆŤng outside in the yard and listening to the birds singing and coming to the feeder or bath, goldÄŽsh in the pond, Ć&#x2039;uail running through the yard, and even those Í&#x17E;damn deer.Í&#x; At Donnaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reĆ&#x2039;uest there is to be no service. Those wishing to remember Donna can make a donaĆ&#x;on to the Canadian Cancer Society in lieu of Ĺ&#x2021;owers. We wish to thank all our friends for the showing of support in this sad Ć&#x;me for us. A tribute page in Donnaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s honour can be visited at the following linkÍ&#x2014; hĆŠpÍ&#x2014;ÍŹÍŹoleaf.shawwebspace.caÍŹ

Donations and bequests are requested for equipment to help care for patients and residents of the Hospital and Bastion Place Tax receipts will be issued.

Predeceased by his parents, one nephew, John, and step-grandson Richard. A celebraĆ&#x;on of Arthurâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life is planned for a later date.
