Despite strong objections heard during the Committee of the Whole meeting in the morning, Grand Forks city council passed the water regulation bylaw with the fourth and final reading at the regular city council meeting Monday night. The water regulation bylaw 1973 sets the guidelines for the city to establish a water system and provide water to the residents and businesses and other consumers in Grand Forks. Before voting in the new bylaw, council repealed the former water regulation bylaw 1501. Council also voted for municipal ticket information amendment bylaw 1957, which covers penalties for violations to the water regulation bylaw. Each vote went 5-1 in favour with Mayor Brian Taylor and councillors Cher Wyers, Patrick O’Doherty, Bob Kendel and Gary Smith voting in favour and councillor Michael Wirischagin as the only one opposed. Councillor Neil Krog was absent. There was little discussion from the dozen or so people in attendance regarding the vote. That was certainly not the case in the morning during the committee of the whole where council heard a presentation from Karin Bagn of the People’s Review Commission opposing the water meter installation. After Bagn spoke, a member of the audience gathered at the old Canpar building asked a question of council. When Bagn answered from the floor, Mayor Taylor banged his gavel and quickly called a recess in order to restore order. Several audience members booed Taylor loudly. After a short break, Taylor reconvened the committee of the whole meeting and proceeded on to the rest of the agenda items.

City will put deer cull on ballot CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
It looks like the City of Grand Forks will have a referendum question on the November election ballot; however, it won’t be about water meters. Instead it will be asking people whether they support a local deer cull. A deer cull, which is a method of thinning the herd by trapping and killing deer, has been done in other nearby communities to mixed effect. Councillor Gary Smith, who chairs the local deer committee, said the referendum question is non-binding and will merely be used for information for council. “We essentially want to ask a question of the people whether or not they are in support of a cull as a management option,” said Smith. Smith said the deer committee has done a preliminary look into costs for a deer cull. They’ve also spoken to local First Nations bands to see if there is “an appetite for them to essentially harvest deer because they’re a people who use all the parts. But no hard costs have been settled on.” Smith said that before getting to the cull stage, he hopes the deer tracking program the committee is looking at will help determine deer patterns. “It will hopefully help us determine if the animals are actually moving out of the Boundary area or sticking around here. That’ll help us nail down how many
animals there are in town and what the resident population really is.” The deer tracking program is a $10,000 program which has yet to receive final council approval. “The Ministry (of Environment) has offered to give us assistance with an in-kind contribution of expertise and effort,” he said. “They have the expertise to be able to tranquilize the animals and tag them and set up the software so we can get the data points.” Smith said they plan to track nine deer including one buck and two does in each of three different herds over two years. “An important thing to figure out is buck movement,” he said. “Bucks are intrinsically shy. We want to know if they are coming in from the hills or are resident bucks; and then to track the movement of the does and figure out specific times.” The deer tracking program is expected to start in the fall. Smith mentioned that East Kootenay cities such as Cranbrook, Kimberley and Invermere have ran deer culls. “There’s a number of communities around the province that have undertaken deer culls,” he said. “What our committee is going to look at is holding a conference with the chairs of those committees and share information and share experiences and hopefully come up with some realistic options for moving forward.”

Pete was born on a farm in Castlegar, then moved here to Grand Forks in 2007. He didn’t really act like a cat, he acted more like a human. He would always follow you wherever you went and loved to play anything with you. He was the only cat in the house until another one came, Willow. Pete didn’t like her and he would always chase her around. Pete didn’t like other cats but he loved humans, he was very friendly. He always thought he was the king of the neighbourhood. He always loved when we took him on car rides. Sadly he passed away a few weeks ago but he lived a great seven years. He was the best cat in the world!

Two firearms, ammunition and a vehicle were seized recently at Cascade border crossing. Border services officers at Cascade Point of Entry discovered two loaded handguns and five magazines during a vehicle examination on July 21. The guns and magazines were found under the sleeping bed of a travel trailer. The traveler was arrested and Canada Border Services Agency’s (CBSA) Criminal Investigations Section is currently pursuing charges. The traveler paid a $2,000 fine for the release of the vehicle, as well as $500 for his release based on recognizance to appear in court when summoned. “These interceptions and the consequences imposed emphasize the severity of this matter,” said Anita Andersson, director, Okanagan and Kootenay district, CBSA. “Firearm laws, when entering Canada, are clear and our border services officers are al-

ways on the lookout for illegal goods that could compromise the safety and security of Canada.” • From Jan. 1 to July 22, border services officers made 30 seizures of firearms, weapons, parts and ammunition in the Okanagan and Kootenay districts. A total of 22 firearms were seized (eight prohibited, 10 restricted and four non-restricted). • Fifteen of these firearm seizures (21 firearms seized) took place during the summer months from May 1 through July 22. CBSA advises travelers that they are required to declare all goods they are bringing into Canada including any firearms and weapons. • Canadian residents and non-residents importing firearms and weapons into Canada must declare them and meet all licensing and registration requirements under the Firearm Act. • Failure to declare goods, including firearms, and other Customs Acts contraventions may lead to prosecution in a court of law.

Once again it’s time to honour the many great businesses in the Boundary. The Boundary Country Regional Chamber of Commerce is asking for residents to submit their nominations for top businesses in a number of categories. “It’s that time of year again,” said James Wilson, executive director of the chamber. “You can submit at our website, www.boundarychamber. com, you can go to Facebook or twitter. You can even come by our office and pick up a hard copy.” The Boundary Small Business Awards will be held at the Grand Forks Curling Rink again this year in October. “It’s all about promoting business in the Boundary,” he said. “The chamber and Community Futures have partnered to have a wine and cheese gala night to celebrate business in this community during small business week.” Wilson said that the Grand Forks Credit Union will also be partnering, and the City of Grand Forks will be presenting the volunteer of the year at the same time. Any businesses in the Boundary from Rock Creek to Christina Lake and in between are eligible. Residents can also vote on the family-friendly business of the year, which is limited to those
businesses that are registered with the chamber as being family friendly. “When businesses sign up with the chamber they have an option of signing up as a familyfriendly business which is a designation that says ‘we’re here for people to stop in and breastfeed or change a diaper or anything like that for their kid and not have to buy anything’,” said Wilson. Categories up for nomination include: Business of the Year; Individual—Service Excellent, which recognizes an individual who has provided superior services to a client or customer; Business—Service Excellence, which recognizes a business that provides superior products and/or services; Retail Excellence, which recognizes a retailer who has been proactive to changing market trends, embraced new technology or ideas and has combined skilled marketing with good selling practices; Trade Services Excellence, which recognizes a tradesperson in the community who has provided superior trades services to a client or customer; and Manufacturing/Industrial Excellence, which is presented to a business that has strengthened the economic base of the Boundary area through development, manufacturing or fabrication of a product. The awards ceremony will be held Oct. 16 at the Grand Forks Curling Rink and is open to anyone.
A local entrepreneur is loaning one of his products to the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Institute in New York City for an exhibition. The Strida bike, which is sold online and locally at Pedaller’s Place by Bill Wilby, will be part of an exhibit called Beautiful Users, which runs from Dec. 12 to April 27. Beautiful Users is an exhibition about how designers address human needs and desires. “They approached me looking for a bicycle,” said Wilby. “They originally called the company in Taiwan that manufactures the bicycle but they didn’t have it in stock because they just build to order. Plus the shipping costs, it would’ve been just cheaper for me to help them. They were looking for a red Strida which I have in stock.” Wilby is the only distributor in North America and only store with stock in North America. Wilby became the Strida folding bike distributor for Western Canada in 2013. Bill Wilby shows off the Strida folding bike that There is currently no is the same as the one he is sending to the Eastern Canadian or Smithsonian in New York for an exhibition. U.S. distributor. Submitted photo Wilby says the exhibit is focused on products that were designed with the human body in mind. “The Strida is a great example of that,” he said. “The person who invented it (Mark Sanders), that was one of his main concerns.” Wilby was thrilled when he learned his product would be featured in a prominent exhibition at the Smithsonian. “For me it’s ideal—to have that kind of exposure,” he said. “For me, I’ve been trying to work on branding and I can’t think of any better way than having a million or so people look at the bicycles.” Wilby said the Beautiful Users show will be the Smithsonian’s first after a year of renovations. He said the bike he is shipping to the Smithsonian will come out of a shop he supplies in Victoria. “This will be the first time I’ve done something like this.” Wilby has enjoying learning about e-commerce with his Strida business. “I needed to learn how to build and maintain my web site, how to promote online, how to import products since the bikes come from Taiwan, and how to build relationships with customers online.”

Cull a stop-gap measure at best At the same council meeting at which the final reading of the water regulation bylaw passed, council approved an election referendum on a potential deer cull. After turning down multiple requests for a referendum on whether or not to install water meters, council will instead ask people if they approve the cull. Of course, cull is just a not-too-clever way of saying “kill.” Although the referendum would be non-binding, it does look like a possible ‘olive branch’ from council to residents upset about water meters. Would council ignore a strong ‘no’ vote and go with a cull anyway? That would not be very popular but would certainly be within their rights. Culls have been done in several other B.C. communities, mostly in the East Kootenay where deer are almost as plentiful as they are here. So how many deer have to be killed (culled) to actually make a dent in the population? Thirty, 40, 50, 100, more? The deer culls in the East Kootenay have had mixed results. In Elkford, near Fernie, the cull was put on hold after an eight-year-old boy witnessed the culling of a deer in broad daylight. The cull is supposed to happen at night to reduce “stress” to the animals. In Cranbrook, which has held two different culls in 2011 and 2013, eight deer traps were stolen by activists and burned. Chris Zettel, city communications officer for Cranbrook, says that deer remain a problem in the East Kootenay community despite the culls. Killing several deer doesn’t mean the others will go on “Deer”book to warn their friends—they will come back as long as there is food around. And, quite frankly, as humans push further and further into rural areas, increased interaction with wildlife is inevitable. It’s good to see the deer committee look at other tactics such as a deer count and deer tracking program. However, stronger education and fines for those who do feed the deer are also needed. A deer cull is a stop-gap measure at best. Let’s hope council looks at other methods before considering a cull.

Surviving hot, dusty—but always fun—Shambhala On The Ball CRAIG LINDSAY So I survived another year at Shambhala Music Festival. It was extremely dusty and hot, but as always it was a fun, peaceful, positive place full of great music and high energy. I had last been two years ago and thought after moving back to the Kootenays it was high time for a return visit. For those who don’t know, Shambhala is a world class electronic music festival on the Salmo River Ranch just outside of Salmo. This year, more than 10,000 people travelled from all over North America and beyond to attend the six-day festival and listen to world class music from the likes of Moby, Bassnectar, Datsik, and many more. Shambhala features six stages spread out over 500
acres: Padoga, Fractal Forest, Grove, Living Room, Village and Amphitheatre. The grounds also feature acres of campsites, where festival-goers set up their homes away from home. I arrived on Saturday afternoon and after a 20-minute drive from Highway 3 along a dusty, windy, skinny road I was at the security/ticket area. After picking up my ticket, I met the head of security. She told me that alcohol was banned because alcohol and drugs did not mix. Of course, drugs have long been associated with Shambhala and the high-energy electronic music and up-all-night partying. With three drug-related deaths at Canadian concerts this year (including a recent death at Boonstock in Penticton) and a death last year at Shambhala, security is a little tighter and, hopefully, festival-goers are using more caution.
After having my car searched very thoroughly (I said I didn’t have any “party favours”), I was through and directed to a parking spot which was very far from the site. That’s okay, exercise is good and so I trekked through the large wasteland of dusty vehicles and tents and found my way onto the actual Shambhala grounds. When I got to the grounds the first thing that I noticed was how friendly everyone is. Sure, most everyone is young and dressed very casually, but positivity is the key. As a friend of mine, who went with her adult son as her ‘Shambassador,’ said on Facebook: “Our experience was absolutely amazing. It was truly wonderful, thousands of people in this place and what I saw was people from all walks of life, all ages, no hierarchy, just people coming together to enjoy a place they can just ‘be’. A magical, giving enter-

tainment place full of energy and goodness. An experience in freedom.” I couldn’t agree more. I wish I could’ve stayed longer and convinced some of my friends to come out but alas, I came home before dark rather than stay in a tent. Before leaving, I came across a group of young people from Seattle who were just coming down from the campsite to float in the river. They were dressed up in some cool costumes and eagerly agreed to pose for a picture. After the picture, one of the five, a fellow named Carl, asked me for a hug so I said sure and Carl gave me a big bear hug for a good minute of so. I was wondering if he was ever going to let go when suddenly the whole group joined in for a group hug. It was a great ending for my short visit and kind of summed up the whole Shambhala experience.

Mussels will change Bring “dirty secrets” to light Christina Lake ecology Letters
to the editor
Editor, The Gazette: If someone is being bullied, the last thing you want to do is walk away from them. They need support, and LOTS of it. I do not know of anyone that would walk away, or stop being friends with someone who is being bullied. That would be shameful. We need to start treating mental illness and depression as we do with bullying. Do not walk away from those who need your help. How can we support people successfully in a society that has mental illness and depression as taboo subjects? We need to break the silence. Generally speaking, there are two types of people. There are the people who would prefer to wear rose-coloured glasses, and pretend that there is no problem. Then there are the people who keep quiet. They are the ones that believe their depression is like a dirty little family secret. The sad thing is, everyone has their own family secrets,
and yet nobody is willing to talk about it! I have had my own dealings with mental illness and depression. In my darkest hours, I had most of the people I thought were my “support system” turn their backs on me. I do not blame any of them. They just didn’t know how to help. With bullying, showing your support for the person in need can make a world of difference, even if that is all you can do! It is time to bring these “dirty little family secrets” to light. I am no longer afraid. I am a suicide attempt survivor. I feel that if I can break the silence, I may be able to give confidence to someone else who needs to reach out for help. You are NEVER alone, no matter how lonely the world may seem. Do not give up. Ask for help. Break the silence! Colleen Welsh, Grand Forks
Midwives hoping to come to a sensible agreement Editor, The Gazette: Recently the Midwives Association of British Columbia (MABC) received media attention about actions we have taken in our negotiations with the provincial government as we seek to find a sensible agreement for British Columbia’s registered midwives. Based on feedback we have received, we are concerned community members in the Kootenays may have an inaccurate view of the impacts of this action and feel it is important to provide clarity. What the MABC has done is withdraw clinical education services for students immediately and issued a 90-day notice to B.C.’s Ministry of Health to terminate our master agreement with the province, effective Oct. 7, 2014. This is in accordance with the terms of our agreement. MABC members are not on strike. However, if we cannot reach a sensible agreement before October, B.C.’s registered midwives are prepared to take further job action. At this time, what those additional actions will be have not been determined. We want to be clear, MABC members will not fully withdraw services—assisting with births is an essential service. Women in the care of a midwife today will continue to receive care throughout their pregnancy.
PROFILI FINANCIAL
Many women in communities across the Kootenays have difficulty accessing appropriate maternity and newborn care in their home communities. Unfortunately, increasing numbers of women and families must travel, sometimes hundreds of kilometres, to receive it at great personal expense. This puts unnecessary strain on expectant mothers, their families and their communities. Studies show that investing in midwifery results in cost savings. In B.C., a nominal investment today will result in savings of $60 million by 2020 and $20 million annually after that—freeing up dollars for other health care priorities MABC is seeking to improve access to maternity care and is working to urge the Ministry of Health to start delivering for B.C.’s women and families by reaching a sensible deal with our members that will increase access to maternity care, improve health outcomes, and reduce costs. I encourage community members who share our concern about the lack of availability of midwifery services in their community to add your voice to the conversation and contact your local MLA.

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
The Grand Forks and District Housing Society (Boundary Lodge Assisted Living)
Tuesday, September 9th 3:00 pm (Board Room) Boundary Lodge 7130 - 9th Street, Grand Forks
What does the future hold for Christina Lake, the lake known across Canada for its warmer than usual waters and its tree-lined Rousing slopes? Members of the Christina Lake Waterfront the Rabble Property Owners Society (CLWPOS) who atROY RONAGHAN tended the annual meeting held on Sunday, Aug. 10 at the Christina Lake Community Hall got an overview of current and future issues that must be dealt with. High on the list of current issues is the threat of the introduction of zebra and quagga mussels—a couple tiny invasive species that are filter-feeding organisms. Both reproduce quickly, disrupt the food chain, clogs water intakes and creates algae. The tiny shells wash up on beaches and unless they are crushed make the beaches unusable. Though they have natural predators the mussels reproduce rapidly and quickly take over water bodies. The larvae of both species of mussels can attach to any vessel (kayaks and canoes included), trailers and fishing equipment. Although there is concern about the entry of mussels into BC there are no inspection stations at entry points and it is only by chance that they have been kept at bay. An article in the Columbia Basin Fish and Wildlife News Bulletin dated July 20, 2012 reported that quagga mussels had been found on a power boat from Arizona that was destined for use in Shuswap Lake. It was confirmed that the mussels taken from the boat were dead but follow-up work was done as a precaution. Water samples were taken from the boat’s bilge and pump systems, and divers inspected the marina’s moorage area, piers and lakebed. Fortunately they found no evidence of mussels. According to the bulletin, government officials stated in a press release that “The introduction and establishment of zebra and quagga mussels into British Columbia would change the biodiversity of our water systems, threaten native species and fisheries, and increase maintenance costs related to the operation of hydroelectric, industrial, agricultural and recreational facilities.” That’s a lot of damage done by a colony of fingernail-sized mollusks. According to all reports both species of mussels came from Europe to Canada and the United States in the 1980s in the bilge of cargo ships. They are now found in Ontario, Quebec, Manitoba and 24 American states as far west as Colorado and California. Fortunately for BC the mussels have not become established in Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Montana. Should they get established there is no proven way of eliminating them? An experiment using liquid fertilizer to kill the mussels in Lake Winnipeg failed. Infestations were reduced but not significantly. The people who attended the CLWPOS were told that property values would be severely impacted if the lake became infested and that fact alone should be motivation enough for the society to take actions to ensure that they don’t. To expect that the Ministry of Environment will take action to install inspection stations is reasonable, but ministries are slow to move on such matters. The Mount Polley mine tailings pond spill into waterways that enter Quesnel Lake is a good example. The Christina Lake Stewardship Society is presently engaged in a programme to inform the owners and operator of watercraft of the need to ensure that they are absolutely clean when they enter the lake. CLSS has erected signs and volunteers are distributing information about the need to have clean watercraft. Will an educational programme suffice? Can the community depend on visitors to understand the hazards of an introduction of mussels into the lake? Although the information campaign operated by CLSS, the community must press for the installation of inspection and cleaning stations at the north and south entrances. Only by doing so can they be assured that every possible precaution is being taken to ensure that the mussels are kept at bay.

People have always cared about water
Editor, The Gazette: How interesting it is becoming to observe the smart water meter story unfold into yet another Boundary saga. Mayor Taylor’s comment in the Gazette, “If we elect a council that tries to turn this around, the city will be out a lot of money,” begs the question of his belief the taxpayers are blind to the $1.3 million presently going out the door. Surely with the smart meter clamour we’ve heard for months our brilliant city administrators have an “opt-out clause” in the so-secret contract with Neptune? At first glance one is left with the impression of a nickel and diming tactic instead of simply raising taxes. We see this so often with Harper and C. Clark. Down the road we could maybe have toll booths on our local bridges as ad-
ministrative costs go up to maintain the nickel and diming projects. Let’s not lose sight of the water in all of this. There is something afoot and we are not getting all of the story. People in this community have always cared about the resource. As proof I can point to the past and two petitions circulated by the Grand Forks Watershed Coalition that each garnered 2,000 names. On both counts city council refused to support causes related to the long-term security of its watershed. The first was Granby Park, the other was to stop the Union Mine cyanide heap-leaching operation on Burrell Creek. This latter one cost $1 million of our money to clean up after a spill. Some believe history begins with their arrival in our community. It does
not work that way at all. The deepseated values opposing a nuclear heavy water plant at Christina Lake in the ’40s are still with us. Those values will always course through our blood. To add my two cents I am hosting a town hall meeting on Monday, Aug. 25 at the Senior Citizens’ Drop-in Centre in City Park from 7 to 9 p.m. Dr. Ross Andersen, retired naturopath, chiropractor and presently environmental consultant from Kelowna, is the main speaker. I encourage everyone in Grand Forks to attend. Democracy works when you engage and doesn’t if you don’t. For further information call 250-4428342. Donald Pharand, Grand Forks
Respect artists, pay them for their work
Editor, The Gazette: In reference to your front page article, “City approves mural project” on Wednesday, Aug.13, I see once again the artists are expected to give services for free. This is typical of the unfortunate attitude in the Boundary in which artists are expected to donate their professional skills for any project, fundraiser, community event, etc. Could this be said for any other profession? An electrician for example? Or doctor? Or lawyer? Or even councillor who receives a monthly income? (I’m not speaking here of volunteer hours contributed to passions and interests such as
iNFORM letters to the editor policy • The Grand Forks Gazette welcomes letters to the editor, but we reserve the right to edit letters for clarity, taste, legality and for length.
trails, sports coaching etc… but instead, professional services.) Many artists live on next to nothing, unless they manage to hit the big time. And when I say artist, I mean painters, illustrators, designers, musicians, performers, writers… you name it. While other professionals often receive excellent guaranteed incomes, and in retirement excellent pensions, many artists struggle from one month to the other simply to cover costs of living; yet, these very artists are expected to donate their professional skills for the betterment of the community. So councillors, would you donate
your professional services? And save the taxpayer? And what of city staff, gardeners and works department? Would they donate their professional services to save the tax-payer? (Meaning receive a smaller paycheque at the end of the month?) Respect and honour the artists and their skills and give them due payment for work that will, in this case, be adding to visual value of the city, and therefore provide the artists with funds in their pockets to live in and support the local economy. Rosemary Phillips, Christina Lake

On Aug. 5 shortly after lunch, RCMP received a report of a green mountain bike with 29’ wheels stolen from a residence on Central Ave. Anyone seeing the bike is urged to call Grand Forks RCMP at 250-442-8288.
On Aug. 7 at 8:15 p.m., RCMP received a call of an intoxicated male drinking beer on 19th St. “The members located this male still having a beer in his hand,” said Lanz. “They noticed a large bulge in the back of his shirt. The male was checked and a pair of nunchucks were located.” The male, who was the same person with the nunchucks on Aug. 5, was again arrested for possession of a prohibited weapon. Charges have been forwarded.
Vandalism to a parked truck
On Aug. 9 at 2:55 p.m., a report was received of mischief to a Dodge pick-up parked on Central Ave. “The vehicle had been parked in this location over night,” said Lanz. “When the owner returned to his vehicle both passenger side tires had been slashed.” Police have no suspects at this time.
Passed out in public
On Aug. 9 at 6:56 p.m., RCMP responded to a report of a male passed out on the grass across from Buy-Low Foods. “Members attended the location and located a local male lying on the grass with a brown paper bag beside him containing a half-full bottle of whiskey,” said Lanz. “The male woke up and started yelling and swearing at the members.” The male was arrested for being intoxicated in a public place and was lodged in a cell for the night. He was released the following morning with a violation ticket for being drunk in a public place, said Lanz.

On Aug. 5 at 9:13 p.m., RCMP received a call about an intoxicated male on 20th St. and 68th Ave. swinging around a set of nunchucks. “The male was located and arrested,” said Lanz. “Charges of possession of a prohibited weapon have been submitted.” The person charged is a 39-year-old Grand Forks male.
Pot found during road check
On Aug. 7 at 12:23 a.m., RCMP stopped a vehicle for speeding on 19th St. and Central Ave. “An odour of marijuana was coming from the vehicle,” said Lanz. “As a result the vehicle was searched. As a result 10 grams of marijuana was found. A small amount of hash oil was also located in the vehicle.” The occupants of the vehicle were from Burnaby.
On Aug. 13 at 2:13 p.m. police responded to a multi-vehicle collision on Highway 3 near Paulson Bridge. “The collision involved three vehicles,” said Lanz. “The westbound vehicle, from Alberta, crossed over the centre line on a blind corner attempting to pass vehicles which struck head-on an eastbound vehicle. There were minor injuries but no serious injuries at this incident.” The driver, an 84-year-old male from Calgary, was issued a violation ticket.

On Aug. 13 at 5 p.m., a male had parked his vehicle at Overwaitea and left his car unlocked and his windows down when he went into the store. “Upon returning to his vehicle, he noticed his vehicle had been entered as his iPad had been stolen,” said Lanz.

Water bylaw Continued from page A1
Taylor told the Gazette after the meeting that the final reading of the water regulation bylaw means the city is now ready for installation of the water meters. “It means the rules are in place and the penalties are in place,” he said. “So we’re all ready for the installation to go ahead.” Taylor said he believes that council has listened to the community’s concerns. He added that even though some people aren’t in favour of water meters, they understand the meters will help the city with conservation and fair distribution of costs. Wirischagin told the Gazette he changed his mind about the water rates bylaw after speaking to the people. “I originally voted in favour of the first three readings of the bylaw,” he said. “The reason the bylaw gets three readings and then a break is to give it time to breathe and allow for public feedback. Over the past month or so, I’ve had quite a lot of feedback on the water rates bylaw.” Wirischagin said the fine of $1,000 for tampering was a contentious issue that was brought to his attention. “Honestly, most people who brought it to my attention were people who had never spoke up and were outside of this group (People’s Review Commission),” he said. “It’s a deterrent to keep people from fiddling with their water meters and trying to go around them. However, after hearing some of the arguments that it was excessive and maybe there was a better way to deal with it, (I changed my mind).” Wirischagin said he is not opposed to water meters but is against universal water meter installation. “I still think they should be voluntary,” he said. “That’s why over the last six years I’ve voted against it every single time it’s come up. I just think there is a better way to do it.” Installing the water meters will be Neptune Technology Group from Ontario. They are expected to start very soon and finish up by October. The cost for the water meters is expected to be $1.3 million which will come out of gas tax money.

Presenting the best of Orris winners Each year for almost a decade now, students in the GFSS graduating class are invited to send in an written submission based on the topic “What do you see in the world that needs improving and how would you act on that challenge?” Year after year there have been many submission, very well thought our and written—and the top presentation earns a bursary to assist in their post-secondary education. The Orris Award is in honour of Stanley Orris, owner and publisher of the Grand Forks Gazette for four decades from
1944 into the seventies. He was a strong believer in social action in ways that improved our community, our country and the world. It is hard making the choice of the winner each year, as the quality has been so high. By publishing the top presentations the Gazette is honouring these outstanding contributions from the graduates of 2014. May we present an original poem by Aleena Stoochnoff.
Not a Peace to Be Found by Aleena Stoochnoff Through all the broken hearts I wander, A witness to the malice of man. The small boy cries alone in the sand, The callous hector is there no longer. Take my left or feel my right, The empty threats hung cold in the sky. The thought runs deep like a disease in my mind, Without bullies in our life, we could, just maybe, just might, Find peace. Though shards of the boys shattered heart cut deep, The wound hurts slowly, the pain found later. The sadness grows like a fireman’s ladder, With increased beatings, his heart beat bleeds. With not a peace to be found of the boys broken heart, My empty hand reaches down in aid. The boy flinches away, afraid. Used to the broken beats, the violence, he falls apart.
Back to the halls of learning he goes, The shadows of his life worn deep in his face. Human nature’s flaw, he cannot fight against. The respect of one’s privacy, no one will help him, no one shows. One of Gods own is slipping away, The gun he pushes deeper into his skull as he cries. I cannot help him, oh how I’ve tried. I’m a failed guardian angel, that’s alii can say. The voices in his head scream silently in his mind, You’re useless, you won’t do it, you have nothing to lose, just one click. The small wars of man come down hard like a brick, If only someone could have found the time. His last exhale, cold with relief. I close my eyes to this harsh battleground. But a loud voice cries out, his friend makes a sound. An act of kindness brings him to his feet. The world is cold, but warm as well, If we only opened our blind eyes. Many souls need us, it’s a surprise That it only takes one to save one from hell. The boy has a best friend now, There’s not a peace to be found of his broken heart forever, Because it is put back together. No bullies around, the peace is found.
Chef about passion LARRY HUDEMA
to the Grand Forks Gazette
On Tuesday, Aug. 26 Spotlight Films will be presenting the comedy Chef. Chef is about pursuing passion. Carl Casper (Jon Favreau, Iron Man series, The Wolf of Wall Street), an acclaimed chef at a prominent Los Angeles restaurant, is having a bad moment. As his family life is verging on decay he is ordered by his boss Riva (Dustin Hoffman) to prepare a meal which runs contrary to his sense of artistic freedom. The food is panned by a restaurant critic and the ensuing raucous and hilarious confrontation becomes a viral video hit. In a classic case of “One door closing….” his pro career is ruined. Carl’s ex-wife, Molly (Sofia Vergara, Modern Family), offers a solution: refit an old food truck, which her current husband Marvin (Robert Downey Jr.) is attempting to dispose of, and offer quality cuisine on his terms. As Marvin puts it, “…a blank canvas for your dreams.” With his young son, Percy (Emjay Anthony, The Mentalist, Grey’s Anatomy) seeking a little dad quality time, and an old colleague, Martin (John Leguizamo, Walking With Dinosaurs 3-D, American Dad) in tow, Carl takes a working road trip to rediscover his gastronomic passion. Assisted by Percy’s tech savvy and Martin’s enthusiasm, Carl finds he is creating a travelling sensation. He also discovers that not only is he serving up the scrumptious results of his reignited passion for the kitchen, but also a deliciously deeper connection with his life and his family. Chef will be shown at 7:30 p.m. at the GEM Theatre. Thanks to IMDB, Rotten Tomatoes, Open Road, Ebiri, our sponsors, patrons, and Maureen and Marius Paquet, of the GEM Theatre for their generous support of Spotlight Films.

Car show shines in the park CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
The 2014 Park in the Park Car Show was a great success with almost double the number of cars and spectators. In all, 148 participants and 160 vehicles, up from 100 vehicles last year, showed up. Organizers Lawrence and Melodie Morgan estimated several hundred people showed up to take in the vintage car show Sunday. “It was awesome,” said Lawrence. “We had significantly more cars than last year. Last year we had three vendors and this year we had over 40. It was phenomenal.”
Among the vendors were several food trucks, brass, woodwork, as well as Trucks Plus from Kelowna with a big display, said Lawrence. “We had a lot of variety,” he said. “We also had the craft and quilt show in the Senior ’s Centre.” One of the big highlights on Sunday was the Blues Brothers Too which featured Jake and Elwood lookalikes and an authentic Bluesmobile. “They just rocked the place,” said Lawrence. “I think that was our main draw to get everyone down and they pulled it off. They had their car with giant speakers

It was really good.” Lawrence said the support from the community and the city and the surrounding district was great. Over 150 people attended a barbecue at the Morgans on Saturday night. Fifty-two cars participated in a cruise Saturday morning around Carson down Highway and around the North Fork loop. The cars also detoured through Silver Kettle Village giving the residents there a chance to see the vintage automobiles.

Hockey league wants players CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
Entering its second year, the Grand Forks Boundary Adult Hockey League (GFBAHL) is already looking at expansion. The league is currently accepting registration from any local hockey players aged 18 and above. “We’re hoping this year that we can increase the number of teams from four to five,” said David Evdokimoff, president of the league. “We’re still looking for about 20-25 guys. A lot of those guys played last year and just haven’t signed up yet. We need them to sign up soon—within the next two weeks—so we can make a decision on whether to go with four or five teams.” Evdokimoff said the league went very well last year and each team was full with players. “The feedback was extremely positive,” he said. “The previous years there was no league, there was just drop-in from different groups. (Having a league) made it relatively organized.” Evdokimoff said the league has a draft and that makes each team relatively equal. He expects the league will start up mid-September

and go until March. Each team plays about one game a week (usually Sundays) but occasionally other days. All games are at Jack Goddard Memorial Arena in Grand Forks. “The focus of the league is to be a competitive league with even teams,” he said. “We have some players that are ex-junior players and ex-college players. We also have some players that have never played before or played only a few years. We welcome everyone.” Evdokimoff said the best way to register is by going to the league’s website at www.gfbahl. com and filling out the form there. The league is also looking for anyone wanting to referee or scorekeep, both of which are paid positions. Evdokimoff said the league will wrap up with a year-end playoff tournament. “Last year, we had a best-of-three series. This year there will be something similar.” Evdomikoff said that playing in the GFBAHL is a great way to meet people. “It’s a great social time,” he said. “What are you going to be doing in the dead of winter anyways? This way you get some exercise and you get to hang out with some buddies.”
It may still be summer weather outside, but inside the arena it’s cold and ready and waiting for a new season of figure skating. The Grand Forks Figure Skating Club welcomes a new coach for the 2014-15 season. Coach Carla Bryan has taken a coaching position in another location; Raymond Naismith will take over the Grand Forks contingent of skaters. “As part of our program of renewal, the board of the Grand Forks Figure Skating Club decided that it was time for a coaching change,” reported club secretary Rob Chornenki, in a press release on behalf of the board.
Grand Forks Gazette

Naismith is NCCP level II certified and has over 25 years of experience coaching figure skating. He has competed at the novice, junior and senior national levels in singles skating. “He has a strong background in dance, and studied ballet at the Banff School of Fine Arts,” the release stated. Naismith also performed in the Canada Ice Dance Theatre from 1974-1978 as a soloist. In 1980 he represented Canada in the Pro Worlds held in Jaca, Spain. “Based on his recommendation, and consistent with the board’s goal of keeping skating affordable, the board will be imple-
menting a restructuring of the teaching organization,” the board said. “This will allow the more senior skaters to learn in a more collegial atmosphere and may lead to the reduction in private lesson expense for parents.” Skaters can register for the upcoming season on Thursday, Sept. 4 in the arena viewing room; skating begins Sept. 15. A special skating session on Friday, Sept. 12 is a chance to meet the coach. All members and their friends, and any families that wish to participate or are interested in learning more about the club are welcome to lace up their skates from 3:45 to 5:15 p.m.

Sebastian returns to host hockey camp
CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
A former Border Bruin is returning to Grand Forks to put on a hockey camp at the local arena. Matt Sebastian, whose parents and brother live here, is the head coach of the Grand Forks Minor Hockey Association hockey camp which goes Aug. 25-29 at the Jack Goddard Memorial Arena. The camp looks to be a big success and is already sold out. “Matt is a former Border Bruin who coaches power skating in Calgary through a group called Fuel Performance,” said camp coordina-

tor Scott Stewart. “He is back home at the end of the summer so he agreed to organize the camp.” Sebastian, who is 26 years-old, played for the Bruins in the 2004-05 season. He also played two years in Creston and a year in Castlegar. After high school, Sebastian headed east to Calgary where he picked up his kinesiology degree at the university there. “I now run a hockey development business in Calgary,” he said. “I have a couple of contracts. In the winter I work with a number of minor hockey associations.” The biggest of which is the
Blackfoot Hockey Association, which has over 700 players. “I’ll do the power skating and skill development for all the players,” said Sebastian. “I’m hired on as their hockey development director.” Going into the hockey development business was a natural progression for Sebastian. “I played until I was 19 and I was looking for a way to supplement my income,” he said. “During my junior career I always worked at hockey schools in the summer. When I got out to Calgary, the market was pretty wide open. I stuck with it and it kind of snowballed into me running my own gig out
there.” Sebastian said he was asked to coach at the camp by Stewart and he was happy to oblige. “I thought it would be a good excuse to get away from the city and have a little working vacation,” he said. “I’m usually back in Grand Forks for a week or so at the end of summer anyway. It worked out really well.” Sebastian said the camp will emphasize skill development such as power skating, puck handling, shooting, play recognition and “lots of fun.”

Editor’s note: Our regular “View from the Pulpit” column is an opportunity for area clergy to share their views. “View from the Pew” is a chance for the laic to also share their views. The Hope of the Christian is a subject not often accurately preached on. Most of us know the scripture, “Then remain these three; Faith, Hope and Charity, but the greatest of these is Charity.” Charity never fails to make the world go round. Love is of God and everyone that loves is born of God and knows God. He that does not love does not know God;

Fresh veggies appreciated Hunger Matters, and it especially matters to growing children. Children who don’t get adequate, good-quality food DO NOT THRIVE. Childhood is a critical period in human development and the long term impact of hunger on children can be extremely detrimental. Physically, hunger affects growth —leading to below average height and weight. Hunger also lessens the ability to fight off diseases. Chronic hunger can lead to difficulty in focusing academically as well as learning disabilities and a lack of energy and motivation. Socially, it can affect how they interact with their peers, may lead to embarrassment or shame and can cause unusual stress and anxiety. Also, because the cheapest foods are usually the least healthy, a child may have enough to eat but still be malnourished and prone to obesity with its physical and social effects. In an ideal world, all children would have enough to eat including enough fruits, vegetables and protein for proper growth. Unfortunately, we don’t live in an ideal world. We live in a time in which one in five children in B.C. are in families living below the poverty line. The hot breakfast/lunch program offered through School District 51 is a big

help to those families with schoolage children but many of them still need monthly trips to the food bank DEB BILLWILLER to get through. In 2013, the Boundary Community Food Bank provided food for an average of 75 children and their families (as well as singles and adult only households) every month. In addition to their regular family hamper, we add extra juice and fruit for each child as well as school snacks such as pudding or fruit cups, granola bars and single serving packs of crackers or cookies. We also provide four litres of milk for each child under 17. Many of these items were added or had their quantity increased within the past year due to the recommendations of our Nutri-squad, a group of board members and other volunteers who spend a lot of time working on increasing the nutritional make-up of our hampers without going too far outside of our food budget. However, those extra items are an extra expense, so we turn to you for help. Cash donations help with our purchases and donations of items such as I’ve listed above mean less that we need to buy. Especially welcome at this time of year are donations of fresh vegetables or fruit from your gardens or trees.

Habitat raises the roof CINDY FAIRS
to the Grand Forks Gazette
Although the rain poured like cats and dogs during the initial set-up in the morning, it didn’t keep the likes of Robin and her three-year-old border collie Brae from performing their valet of dog tricks for Habitat for Humanity Southeast BC’s (HFHSEBC) Raising the Roof event later in the afternoon last Friday. With a full program of performers planned throughout the evening, nothing— including the rain—would keep the organization from presenting its performers to the public. The event featured local talent such as Lizanne Eastwood from the library who read stories to the children and Nathan the Amazing (Nathan Vogel) who performed magic tricks. Held at the City Park stage (which includ-
Robin Maclean and her her three-year-old Border Collie Brae perform tricks. Cindy Fairs photo
ed a makeshift house built on the stage), organizers ensured that the show would go on rain or shine so they built a shelter in preparation, and also because that is exactly what they do: build houses by mobilizing volunteers and community partners in building affordable housing and promoting home ownership as a means to breaking the cycle of poverty. With two cancellations just days prior to the event, Leeza LeClair and the Mystery Entertainers, a group of 10 performers who were a conglomerate of musicians from far and wide, quickly put an act together in less than 24 hours and offered their talents and performed an outstanding show for the local charity event. According to Master of Ceremonies Gary Smith, the event was a great success and with the support of the local community and other groups like Kyra and Mayanne, Three Quarter Band, Damien and Jay Alblas, and the fire dancers from Luminosity. the performers were all amazing. Resource Development Coordinator Cindy Fairs commented, “We were pleased to have such great local talent supporting Habitat and also appreciate the volunteers, as well as, the vendors who came out to make this a more festive and successful event.” The Rotary Club also raised monies through its kettle-corn sales. Even the local Home Building Centre came through just minutes before the show was to go on, as organizers set up tents needed for shelter and bricks were needed to hold down the tents in case of predicted heavy winds. The event raised $1,418.85 with proceeds to support the organization’s initiatives.
