With no settlement between the teachers and the government, parents had to find other options for their children on Tuesday. With reknowned negotiator Vince Ready on hand and both sides meeting for long hours, it was hoped a settlement could be made before school started, unfortunately the sides were too far apart. Teachers began limited job action last March before escalating to a full-blown walk-out in June, just before final exams. Key issues in the contract dispute include wages, class composition and class size. In a press release on Aug. 30, Peter Fassbender, minister of education, stated, “Today veteran labour mediator Vince Ready determined that the parties are too far apart for mediation at this time. I’m very disappointed for students, parents and teachers. What should be a time of excitement and anticipation will instead be marked by frustration and uncertainty.” Fassbender went on to say he couldn’t see any quick or easy solutions, and didn’t know when school would return. • See STRIKE page A7
GFSS teachers like David Dunnet (far right) picket outside the high school on Aug. 28. Despite last minute negotiations between the BCTF and BCPSEA and super-negotiator Vince Ready, a settlement has not yet been reached in the teacher strike.

Woodstove program returning to RDKB The RDKB board of directors received a report from Theresa Lenardon, RDKB manager of administration, regarding the 2014-15 Provincial Wood Stove Program. In her report, Lenardon stated that the program is designed to encourage British Columbians to change their older smoky wood stoves for low-emission appliances including new CSA/EPA certified clean-burning wood stoves. Communities benefit from better air quality and individuals benefit from increased efficiency saving money and reducing pollution. The program has been in place since 2008 and has gone really well. “We’re really supportive of the wood

stove program,” said Grace McGregor, RDKB board chair. “It has been very successful. Most of the electoral area directors provide a bit more money to go with that incentive to go along from our grant-in-aid to encourage people to trade in their stoves which had emissions.” The key goals for the program are: 1. To improve community air quality by providing incentives to change out old smoky wood stoves with cleaner burning options, and 2. provide education on clean burning techniques through Burn it Smart workshops, brochures, websites and social media. Lenardon recommended that the board approve participation in the 2014-15 Wood Stove Exchange Program and that it be called “The RDKB Wood Stove Exchange Program.” The RDKB would act as the administrator of
the program and distribute the grant funds. The program will be managed and administrated by RDKB CAO John MacLean and the program “team” will include a director from each community. John Vere of Grand Forks will act as program coordinator. Vere has been coordinating the program since March of 2008. He sits on the Boundary Air Quality Committee and was responsible for the research and successful drafting of the Wood Burning bylaw for the City of Grand Forks. The Wood Stove Program will be a partnership between the RDKB and the Boundary Air Quality Committee, local credit unions, BC Lung, insurance agencies, Interior Health, media and local retailers. The program goal for 2014-15 is to exchange 30 old appliances through the RDKB.

Hi. My story is probably familiar but here goes my sisters brothers and I were dumped in a ditch at Norwegian Creek Road outside of Greenwood, B C... A kind man put us in a box and took us to Race Trac Gas, an employee who works there took us home; the vet Ruth Sims gave the lady some kitten formula and she tried to save us all. Working so hard, around the clock... Sad to say all my brothers and sisters died, but I grew and grew. A wonderful lady from Kelowna, BC named Lisa and hubby Scott loved me so much took me home Frida,y now I have a new family. Stella a dog and a Kitty named Lex. A sad but happy ending too. But please if you don’t want us fix your pets. Nothing wants to die by cruelty.

Nominations open for volunteer of the year
CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
One look around town and it’s clear to the huge influence volunteers have. Whether it’s coaching youth sports, helping out at the welcome centre and flour mill, Boundary Museum at the Fructova Heritage Site, the gallery 2, fall fair, and many others—volunteers makes Grand Forks go. “Volunteers are integral to our community,” said Mayor Brian Taylor. “They contribute numerous hours of their time keeping the community vibrant and active and often provide many essential services that the community would not otherwise have.” To honour the many great vol-
unteers in our community, the city is once again hosting the volunteer of the year award. The official call for nominations was announced at the Sept. 2 regular council meeting and run until Sept. 29 at 2 p.m., said Taylor. Nomination forms will be available after Sept. 2 on the city’s website and paper copies will be available at the 5th Street location by Overwaitea. The winner will be announced at the Small Business Awards on Oct. 16 at the Grand Forks Curling Rink. “Council is extremely grateful to all volunteers,” added Taylor. “Celebrating and recognizing volunteers is a small thing to do to show our thanks and gratitude.”

The money was raised through events such as pancake breakfasts at the airport fly-in, where the picture was taken, Canada Day, and many more.

RDKB approves Rogers’ plans for Midway area CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
Board members of the Regional District of the Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) approved a plan by Rogers that will see a road and utility line to the planned new facility in the West Boundary. Jeff Ginalias, planner for RDKB, presented a report to the board at the Aug. 28 general meeting regarding Rogers’ application for two licenses of occupation, one for a utility line and the other for a roadway, to service a telecommunications facility, for which a license of occupation has already been granted. The site is located on Crown land just north of Midway. The utility line will run about 95m and the roadway, a short extension off an existing road, will be about 75m. The utility line will power a communication site Rogers plans to build within their existing Crown tenure to
the west of the CBC tenure. The communications site will enhance cell coverage and communication in Midway and the immediate area. “They have to go through our regional district if it is within our district,” said McGregor. “Often they will also come to the Advisory Planning Commission for comment.” McGregor said the project will bring more competition to the cell phone industry in the area which is always good for residents. “We generally support those unless it’s in an area that’s going to be a problem,” she said. The project is scheduled to start soon and the construction time is estimated to be 4-8 weeks. In a letter send to Rogers, Jeff Ginalias, planner for RDKB, stated that Rogers has satisfactorily completed its consulation with the regional district and the regional district is satisfied with Rogers’ public consultation process
and the process does not require any further consultation with the public. He also stated, the RDKB concurs with Rogers’ proposal to construct a new wireless telecommunications facility, provided it is constructed substantially in accordance with the submitted plans.
this, we will be opening a temporary ReStore located over in the old forestry building at 136 Sagamore Avenue.” The organization is involved in a collaborative multi-agency project with two other organizations, Whispers of Hope and the Boundary Emergency and Transition Housing Society (BETHS) whose purpose it is to meet the needs of individuals and families in the Boundary area who are homeless, hungry and/or unable to obtain decent, safe and affordable housing. The MAAP project is located downtown on Riverside Drive and has an empty lot that will eventually house the ReStore building and transition housing units. The long-term vision for the MAAP project is to create a single facility that will house all three agencies—and
where resources can then be shared, making it a very unique partnership. The ReStore is now accepting donations of new and used building supplies, equipment, furniture and household items that are in good resalable condition. As well, are in need of volunteers to support the initiative. Friesen further commented, “We cannot wait any longer to open a Restore, and the faster we are able to gather items for our store, the quicker we will be able to open our facility For more information, or to volunteer, please call (250) 442-2720. Donated product can be brought to 136 Sagamore Avenue, Tuesday to Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Saturday.

Fringe necessary There are those in society who tend to question pretty much everything. No matter what the government says or the majority of scientists say—this fringe group will disagree and make a fuss. Perhaps fringe isn’t the right word. It’s always tough to quantify a group of people. Maybe they are the majority, it’s hard to tell. Although that seems unlikely. Whatever their numbers, and whether or not you vehemently disagree with them and their sometimes less than passive methods—the crapdisturbers serve a very necessary component in society. It’s easy enough to go on with life and just accept everything without question. That’s the easy way. But what if things aren’t the way they should be? What is things could be better? What if wi-fi is dangerous? What if cigarettes are bad for you? By questioning authority, you hold them accountable. And accountability is a good thing. So is transparency. The only way to change things is to stand up and be heard.

Reporter ruminates on what’s coming up On the Ball Craig Lindsay Just because Labour Day has come and gone doesn’t mean that summer is quite over. The weather is still quite decent. You can still wear shorts and sandals. Yet, (normally) the kids would be back at school, hockey, basketball and the new fall TV season are about to begin. It’s a changing of the guard, so to speak. In this column, I’m going to talk about a few of my favourite things I’m looking forward to in the coming months. Basketball fever Alright, no secret here, I’m a big hoops fan. And the NBA will be starting around Halloween. So many interesting subplots this year: Lebron James in Cleveland with Kevin Love; how will they do? Miami without Lebron. Are
they still a contender? Budding Canadian superstar Andrew Wiggins. How will he make out his rookie season in Minnesota with Ricky Rubio and fellow Canadian #1 pick overall Anthony Bennett? Will the Toronto Raptors be able to build on their strong season last year? The Raps have pretty much everyone back again. Talented point guard Kyle Lowry signed on despite overtures from contenders such as Houston and Miami. Will Raptor swing DeMar DeRozan become a superstar after playing with the U.S. Team at the World Cup? Everyone in the pool I’m set to join (and organize in the case of basketball) NBA and NHL pools. It’s a great way to follow the sports a little more intensely as you battle friends and family to see who comes out on top. Who will be the surprise picks this year? Which rookies will step in a succeed right away? I don’t want to reveal too much here in case my competitors are reading, but in the NBA
look for big man Kelly Olynyk from Kamloops!! to have a breakout sophomore year. In the NHL, look for the Canucks Jannick Hansen to have a breakout year as he replaces Ryan Kessel. Bruins ready to roar It’s been awhile since the Grand Forks Border Bruins Junior B team has made the playoffs. Things looked good last year but then coach Nick Deschenes jumped ship to Junior A Trail, a few key players got hurt and that was that. The new coach and general manager, Brad Snyder, is more experienced and mature than the last couple of coaches. He coached for over 20 years in Manitoba. He has already tapped into his Prairie contacts and brought in some talent from Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. I saw some of training camp and saw a lot of speed and some talent. This could be a turn-around year for the Bruins. Be sure to get out and support the team this year. These boys work hard and in a small rink all that
Boundary hockey league It’s not all passive, I have signed up for the Boundary Hockey League which has just gone to five teams. It’s been a few years since I’ve suited up so I’m a little nervous but I think I’ll be fine. I played in the oldtimers league in Cranbrook awhile back and that was good fun. There are a few younger guys playing in this league but I’m sure they’re all there for the same reason as me: have fun, get some exercise and put the beer in beer league. I think at this point no one is making the pros. Athlete of the Week I’m looking forward to our new Athlete of the Week feature. Starting this week, we give residents a chance to honour someone for their athletic prowess. Just send a JPEG and short writeup to editor@grandforksgazette. ca.

Turning the heat up in Grand Forks Dear Editor, Say NO to the water meter installation. You still CAN do something about it. This ain’t over yet. Just say NO. Let democracy prevail. The upcoming elections will hinge on this issue. This needs more time, to sort out the issues. There is no panic for meters, especially going in to the fall and winter months. Peak water demand has passed, water consumption is down to a fraction of peak summer usage. So why the panic by city council? Makes no sense at all. It really makes one wonder - what is their real motivation ? One really big issue here is RF (radio frequency) radiation. A microwave oven works on the principle of RF radiation. It cooks things on a cellular level. Granted, the radiation of the water meters is dramatically less than a microwave oven, but the principle is exactly the same. Given enough time, the effects of the radiation are cumulative. The long-term effects on health can be numerous and hard to pin down. And these effects will be emphatically denied by “vested interests” (people who profit from this). According to a reliable source in the City, an RF water meter “reader” can read up to 400 homes at one time. 400 homes! The power that takes is very significant. Count how many city blocks 400 homes would occupy. These meters can be mounted in your basement, and still they can read up to 400 homes! Relatively speaking, that’s a lot of power. The radiation is emitted over many square blocks. We will be
surrounded by this RF radiation on all sides. Just like a weak microwave oven. If you have one of these RF water meters installed, you will be radiating not only yourself, but all your neighbours, to the tune of possibly hundreds of households. Modern science can’t account for the alarming increase in cancer rates and other life threatening illnesses and diseases. How can vested interests calmly deny RF radiation has anything to do with the onset of these diseases ? Easy… they profit from the technology. We are already bombarded with RF energy from cell towers, Wi-Fi devices, electrical meters. This is a growing trend. Add to this, bombardment with RF water meters. More IS NOT better in this case. And apathy is NOT the answer. Mayor and City Council claim the meters will save money. Well… let me point out that they are spending $1.3 million on this program! That is a lot of money. We could spend that on new wells, new lines, new reservoir… whatever. The brand new city well that is approved for drilling is estimated at only $660,000. Creston has, evidently, achieved what our city council is rashly attempting, without the use of water meters. (See letters to the editor, previous issues, for details.) Kudos to Creston’s mayor and city council. They obviously care about the people they represent. Jack Koochin Grand Forks
Grateful for return of stolen bike Dear Editor, August 19 at 8 am I went to go for a bike ride and found my Specialized Myka FRS Comp bicycle and a neighbour’s Gary Fisher bicycle stolen. The bikes were locked up to a bike rack on our private property. My bike was purchased (in March 2014) from Chain Reaction Bike Shop here in Grand Forks, so after a visit from the RCMP, I went to see Brian Fletcher at Chain Reaction. I looked at a bike replacement cost to send my insurance company. I called my insurance company, I went to local businesses to find out if any businesses had outdoor cameras on their parking lots, these lots overlook our driveway. I drove up local back roads looking for my bike and finished up with a letter to the editor. I posted the loss on face book and whined a bit. August 20 at 3:50 pm I received a phone call from Brian Fletcher, he informed me that Darryl Secret from Secret Cycle Service in Nelson had noticed the Chain Reaction sticker on my bike and called to see if my bike was reported stolen. Brian confirmed I was missing my bike, and the Gary Fisher bike was missing too.

Darryl was able to cancel the cheque he used to pay for the bikes, and called the police who came and picked up the bikes. I telephoned the Nelson bike shop and spoke with Darryl Secret. On August 21 I visited Secret Cycle Service, dropped off a card of gratitude and spoke with Darryl Secret. I then picked up my bike in Nelson at the City Police Department. I have heard repeatedly that to shop local is more costly, well, I’d just like to say, shopping in Grand Forks paid off for me, it saved me $500 deductible I would have had to pay, just to get the same bike back. Not to mention my friend’s bike return, and all the conveniences of having the shop where I live. I have since visited Brian at Chain Reaction with a card of gratitude and purchased some accessories for my bike. I would like to express my gratitude to these two business men who went that extra mile, I’m very grateful, thank you so much! Jean Lloyd Grand Forks
Climate crises will be exploited If we were as well informed about climate change and its ramifications as Naomi Klein, a Canadian author Rousing and journalist, and Bill McKibben, an the Rabble American author and environmental activist, we would not question that ROY RONAGHAN climate change is real and that we are facing a crises of unknown proportions if we refuse to take action to significantly reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emission levels. Klein has a fear that disasters like hurricanes and typhoons that are occurring with greater frequency will be the catalysts for militarism and increased capitalism that take advantage of people’s shock and suffering. Klein is fully familiar with how large corporations have profited from disasters because of her extensive research for her book, The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism. The financial crisis in Argentina in 2001, Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, the British Petroleum (BP) oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, the war in Iraq are examples of such events where corporations profited at people’s expense. As a journalist Klein also writes about environmental issues and recently exposed the Big Green environmental groups for accepting donations from fossil fuel corporations. She named The Nature Conservancy (TNC), the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS), and the World Wildlife Fund--US (WWF) as holding large endowments. TNC is reported to have a whopping $1.4 billion in publicly traded securities. McKibben, the founder of 350.org, has been on speaking tours around North America and Europe as part of the Fossil Free Divestment campaign to urge universities, city councils, and faith-based institutions to divest from fossil fuels. The mission statement of the Fossil Free Movement is: “If it is wrong to wreck the climate, then it is wrong to profit from the wreckage. We believe that educational and religious institutions, city and state governments, and other institutions that serve the public good should divest from fossil fuels.” University students in North America, Europe and Australia have taken the divestment message seriously and are working to get their university boards of governors to divest from their fossil fuel holdings and invest in renewable energy technology. By May 2013 four universities and 10 cities in the USA, including Seattle and San Francisco had announced plans to divest from their investments in fossil fuel companies. In October 2013 there were 19 active divestment campaigns across the UK including Cambridge, Oxford and Edinburgh, universities with the largest endowments supported by fossil fuel industries. The list has continued to grow. McKibben fears the consequences of GHG emission levels climbing to far above the safe level of 350 parts per million (ppm). The present level is 400 ppm. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report published in November 2013 that the planet is undergoing climatic shifts far greater than any ever experienced during human civilization and the forecast is that the worst is yet to come. The IPCC also stated unequivocally that the known reserves of coal, gas and oil should remain in the ground if a complete climate catastrophe is to be avoided. McKibben is reported to have said in an interview with a Rolling Stone reporter in February 2013, “Here’s my bet: the kids are going to win, and when they do, it’s going to matter.

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 award is in honour of Stanley Orris, owner and publisher of the Grand Forks Gazette for four de-
cades 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. This week we present an original story by Kaden Dolan.
Another White Rabbit
At eight years of age, I didn’t realize that the majority of the world wasn’t well-off like my own family. He told me there was nothing I could do to help. My favourite thing in the whole entire world was proving him wrong. It was that one event that led me to my career. People always ask me, “What do you do for a living?” I find my only response to this is, “I try to save the world, one small step at a time.” But of course this always requires further explanation. I tell them that I started an organization. My organization goes around to the least wealthy countries of the world and we do our best to solve world hunger. Now I know that may seem ridiculous, but to those that I manage to help I know it means the world to them. Still many folks remain unsatisfied. I usually need to explain that my organization makes its money off of donations from the wealthy. People with a lot of cash sometimes want to give back to the community, but don’t always have the time. My organization takes their donations and does good deeds with the money, so it’s a win/win situation. With the money I receive, we teach small communities in farm towns how to work together and share. Now this seems like an easy concept, one that everyone would know already. Then why is it that before we enter the community most of the population is starving, and after we have done our job they are left with an abundance of food? The solution is non-profit community vegetable gardens. All my group has to do is explain the rules and provide the starting supplies. Everything that is grown can be harvested for seed as well, so it can be used year after year. Now don’t get me wrong, the gardens haven’t been one hundred per cent successful in every community, but those that have failed have not followed our rules. The main rule is not to be greedy; if someone takes too much then we’re back at ground zero. The second is co-operation; everyone must do their part for a large scale garden to flourish. A question we often get is “why wouldn’t we just go to our current farmers?” and the reason is because they’re trying to make a profit, and a community garden is only trying to feed the mouths of its workers. The old man stopped me: “But that’s so simple, so easy, why hasn’t it been done already? Why doesn’t your plan constantly go downhill?” To this I told the man “Yes, it is so easy. The only way it works is that I give without expecting to receive. The communities are given a boost to get them off their feet. It continues to work be-

The greatest use of life is to spend it for something that will outlast it. – William James (1842 - 1910)
Joke of the Week:
Q: How do you know that carrots are good for your eyesight? A: Have you ever seen a rabbit with glasses?
“What inspired you to become who you are today, how did you arrive at this point in your life?” the grayhaired man asked me over a cup of coffee on a rainy day in our busy city. “It’s a lengthy story, sir.” I replied. “Do you have a minute?” “Why, I don’t have a job, a wife, children, or even a dog. I have all the time in the world. Where does it begin?” The one thing that I remember most clearly about my childhood is when I was eight years old and I came across a family of white rabbits in the treeline by my house. This was the first time even one rabbit hadn’t run away from me the second we made eye contact, let alone four. I was a pretty smart kid, I realized within a moment that they were all sick, but I wasn’t so smart as to know what to do. I sprinted to my front porch and shouted for my older brother, he had been doing first aid courses at the high school the week before; I was sure he would know what to do. When he finally got to the door and I explained the problem, he swore at me and told me not to waste his time, but then sent me to get some vegetables we had bought from the grocery store, and some water in a bottle. I brought the supplies to the little furry family and they were delighted. Almost instantly the looks of sadness had dispersed and I could tell that the only problem these little rabbits had was a lack of food. I took my analysis to my older brother and he said I’m probably right, but they’re going to run out of food again soon. I took action. Within an hour I had consulted my mother for help, and by the next day I had started my own vegetable garden. I knew it wouldn’t happen fast and that it wouldn’t be easy, but in a few months I had managed to cultivate a decent amount of food for my furry little friends. You’re probably wondering, why would those rabbits be around still? The answer is simple. I told my mother what I had planned and she thought it was a great idea, so we had built a temporary pen in our yard to keep them around. During the grow season she let me feed them with more veggies, and because of this none of them looked sick anymore, and the older two were actually getting fat. When I was telling my brother what I had accomplished; solving the rabbits’ hunger with the food I grew for them, he ruined my thoughts of good doing. He explained that now those rabbits won’t have food again pretty soon anyways, and he shut me down when I said “I solved the hunger problem!”

Open fire ban in effect SUBMITTED
to the Grand Forks Gazette
Open fires remain prohibited throughout the Southeast Fire Centre, despite recent rainfall and cooler temperatures. Historically, the Southeast Fire Centre receives the least amount of precipitation in the months of August and September. Although some areas have received increased amounts of precipitation recently, it may not be sufficient to reduce wildfire risks in the long term. Specifically, the current open fire prohibition applies to: * the burning of any waste, slash or other materials * stubble or grass fires of any size over any area * the use of fireworks, sky lanterns or burning barrels of any size or description The open fire prohibition does not apply to campfires that are smaller than a half-metre wide and a half-metre high, or to cooking stoves that use gas, propane or briquettes. The Wildfire Management Branch investigates all reports of smoke, including those involving prohibited burning activities. Human-caused wildfires can divert critical resources and crews from responding to naturally occurring wildfires. Anyone found in contravention of an open fire prohibition may be issued a ticket for $345 or, if convicted in court, may be fined up to $100,000 and sentenced to one year in jail. If the contravention causes
or contributes to a wildfire, the person responsible may be subject to a penalty of up to $10,000 and be ordered to pay all firefighting and associated costs. The Southeast Fire Centre covers the area extending from the U.S. border in the south to Mica Dam in the north and from the Okanagan Highlands and Monashee Mountains in the west to the B.C.-Alberta border in the east. It includes the Selkirk Natural Resource District and the Rocky Mountain Natural Resource District. To report a wildfire or unattended campfire, call 1 800 663-5555 toll-free or *5555 on a cellphone. For the latest information on current wildfire activity, burning restrictions, road closures and air quality advisories, go to: http:// www.bcwildfire.ca You can also follow the latest wildfire news on: * Twitter at http://twitter.com/ BCGovFireInfo * Facebook at http://facebook. com/BCForestFireInfo Quick Facts: * So far this year in British Columbia, 1,260 wildfires have burned 312,618 hectares of land, compared to 11,351 hectares in 2013. The 10year average for this time of year is 93,664 hectares. * More than 1,350 provincial staff, nearly 650 B.C. contractors, over 360 out-of-province personnel and 75 personnel from Australia are currently engaged in fire response efforts in B.C.

The kids are working really hard. I think the main thing I like is they have a great attitude. Even the ones from last year, they came back for the right reasons. They want to be part of the community and they want Ethan Argue to work hard. That’s a big point for me.” Snyder said about 30 players tried out for the Bruins and he’s cut that number to around 22 Swimmer after the weekend. “We still have a lot of kids at Junior A camps Grand Forks so we’re waiting to see who gets cut and where Piranhas they end up,” he said. “Right now I’m really happy with how things are going.” In addition to on-ice and dryland sessions, Ethan was nominated by his swim coach. the Bruins also hit the road for a couple of exHe attained many best times at the regional hibition games to let the coaching staff evaluate meet in Trail and achieved faster times in evplayers. ery race he swam at provincials in Kamloops.

Former resident pens GMO thriller CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
A former Grand Forks residence has published a book about a writer who ends up hiding out in Christina Lake while hiding from an evil corporation. The book, an ecological thriller called Dark Seed, is available online through Amazon and other outlets. is pleased to welcome In Dark Seed, writer Nick Barnes uncovers a conspiracy involving genetically modified organisms (GMO) and a shady organization Appointments available trying to cover up their evil global plot. Writer Lawrence Verigin came up with Author Lawrence Verigin at a recent book signing for his book Dark Seed. the idea for Dark Seed Craig Lindsay photo after talking about GMOs with his father in Grand Forks about 14 years ago. Verigin was born in Grand Forks and grew up here. He graduated from Grand Forks Secondary School in 1983 and moved to Vancouver to attend Capilano College. 250-442-0224 7486 2nd Street Verigin actually has a marketing background and although he currently works at a newspaper he is in the advertising department. Verigin said he has wanted to write a book for 20 years or so. “I thought, I’ll do it some day,” he said. “I’ll put it on my bucket list. Then about 14 years ago I thought I’d like to it so I started working on a story. It wasn’t really panning out.” The inspiration for his first novel, Dark Seed, came from that visit to his father. “He was telling me about all the stupid stuff that was going on where they were genetically engineering different fruits and vegetables,” said Verigin. “They were doing stuff like putting fish genes into tomatoes and things like that. My dad was always into natural things and not screwing around with nature.” With the idea in his head, Verigin returned to his home in Vancouver and began the long research process. “After researching I thought, ‘this would make a good story. The companies that were doing the genetic engineering would make the perfect villains.’ That’s how I got started.” He wrote the first draft of the story in one year but realized that he needed to hone his writing skills. “I said this is a good story but I don’t know how to write,” said Verigin. “Because I didn’t have a writing background, it was harder for me to figure out how to tell the story and make every paragraph make sense.” He then spent close to 10 years taking courses and speaking to published writers and learning how to write properly. “The book was always at the back of my mind and I was always tweaking it,” he said. “Finally, about two years ago it was good enough to be published.” Verigin was able to get Dark Seed published through Promontory Press from Victoria. “They’ve been really good,” he said. “They’ve been able to get me into Chapters stores across Canada and we just finished doing a deal with Barnes and Noble in the U.S. where my books will 2923 Central, Grand Forks • 250-442-8414 be available by October. The helped me with getting the ebooks on every different platform. They also helped with the editing.” Although Verigin’s immediate family has all moved from the area to Kelowna, he still visits Grand Forks and Christina Lake occasionally. He said putting both towns in Dark Seed made sense since he knows the area so well and it fit in with in with his story. One of the characters, Ivan Popoff, is a Russian scientist but has been discredited and he needs a place to retire. “So where would be a good place to have him retire—and I chose Nelson,” said Verigin. “I then had to get Nick and Morgan (another main character) close to Nelson. I know Fetal Alcohol Grand Forks and Christina Lake well. In the winter, Christina Lake would be a great place to hide Spectrum Disorders out and that’s close to Nelson. Plus, my family has had a cabin on the lake for nearly 40 years. So I know the place really well. It was a perfect place and I knew it so it was easy to write it.” (FASD) Awareness Day Verigin said the book writing experience was long and arduous but well worthwhile. is September 9th “I really enjoy the creative part of it and the use of your imagination,” he said. “Seeing a blank page suddenly filled with words is reThis day was chosen so that on the ninth day of the ninth month of the ally cool.

Steward’s program promotes conservation SUBMITTED
to the Grand Forks Gazette
The Christina Lake Stewardship Society’s Young Stewards of the Boundary Youth Program has been successful in encouraging children and their caregivers to do their part to keep our lake clean. The society strives to promote environmental conservation through education and connections to the ecosystems around them, which occurs every Thursday morning throughout the summer in their Interpretive Gallery. Each one of these sessions begins with a presentation on the big screen pertaining to a different theme from “Beautiful Birds” to “Fun in the Forest”, followed by a walk in the Nature Park, or an outdoor activity.

Suicide prevention day coming up SUBMITTED
to the Grand Forks Gazette
September 10 is World Suicide Prevention Day. Communities across Canada will come together to support those bereaved by suicide, remember and celebrate the lives of those who died by suicide, to support those who struggle with living, and to renew our commitment to helping all Canadians reconnect with their reasons to live while building lives with dignity, purpose and meaning. “One World Connected” is the theme that International Association for Suicide Prevention has chosen for this year’s World Suicide Prevention Day. Bringing this theme home, the West Kootenay/Boundary Suicide Prevention, Intervention and Postvention (PIP) Committee has committed to promoting “Connecting Canada” as the theme for WSPD. Being connected with oneself, with others and a community is critical to ones sense of hopefulness and wellbeing. Building connections rises from the pillars of suicide prevention, intervention and postvention. On September 10th the local PIP committee is inviting all people in the West Kootenay/Boundary region to come together to remember that we are all connected to each other and join in a local kite flying ceremo-

nies. The kite is the national symbol for World Suicide Prevention Day. The connection we have through the string, to the kite in the sky, represents our connection to the things we strive to stay connected to: hope, community, those we have lost, and those who struggle with thoughts of suicide. The kite also reminds us of the importance of staying connected to ourselves to keep our feet on the ground and to sometimes put our heads in the clouds and dream, to be aware of ourselves, to feel our own importance and power, to care for and nurture ourselves, to have fun and play. On September 10 kite flying ceremonies will take place at: Grand Forks: Perley Elementary School Grounds 4:30 - 6:30 p.m. Midway: James G. McMynn Village Park 12 - 1:30 p.m. For more information on the resources available to those affected by suicide please visit the visit the website www.westkootenaysuicideprevention.org For support, please contact the crisis line at 1-888-353- CARE (2273) For More Information: Karen Miller West Kootenay Boundary Region Crisis Line 250-3640274. I’ve been out of the loop or if this is a revolutionary idea, but keep at it, boy. Maybe one day it will catch on in larger areas and you’ll actually reach your goal of stopping world hunger, even if that seems ridiculous. I chuckled. I can only imagine the impact this might have one day, but for now I’m only a small organization, well respected by the upper class because they feel like they’re doing good when I take their money. It may not be the most effective thing I can do to change the world, but it does make an impact, one small group of people at time.

The driver was sentenced to eight years in prison. Halfway through his sentence, the parents of the boy were informed that the driver would soon be released on probation into the community. This raised a lot of issues for the parents: what happens if they meet on the street; how has this incident affected the driver; is he ready for release into the comHarriett munity?

When Roy transitioned from being a pilot with Air Canada to enter a ministry of being a pastor and mentor to the pastors of the Central Canada Baptist Conference, Dorothy adjusted her life, as she always did, to make it possible. She went back into nursing and also traveled with dad when he visited the churches throughout the prairies. When Roy moved on to Christian Transportation International, a ministry to Christians who were working in the transportation industry, they traveled together to meet with people at their places of work, encouraging them to live their faith wherever they were. Dorothy was a wonderful mother-in-law to Larry’s wife Noelle, Lynn’s husband Dave, and Colleen’s husband Roy. She was a doting grandmother to Larry and Noelle’s children, Stefie and Jordy, Lynn and Dave’s two boys Tim and Mike, and Colleen and Roy’s son Sam and daughter Faith all of whom will miss her deeply. In 1997 Dorothy and Roy moved from Winnipeg to Grand Forks, mom’s beloved hometown. While here she was the president of the food bank and very involved in her church, the Gospel Chapel. The move here brought her closer to her beloved brothers and their families. Dorothy is predeceased by her parents Cy and Lil Pennoyer, and her brothers Keith and Lloyd Pennoyer. She also leaves behind her ‘little’ brothers, Roy and Harold Pennoyer, and her sisters-in-law, Viola, Joylene, Shirley, Judy, and Elaine, and many nieces and nephews. In the last moments of Dorothy’s life, at 1 am on Saturday, August 23rd, 2014, her two daughters, Lynn and Colleen were by her side. When she had passed, Lynn went to get Roy out of bed. As he said in a recent email to some friends, “Near as I could tell, Dorothy had breathed her last. The girls wept freely, and I reminded them that their Mum was no longer here; that she had already entered Heaven through the Gates of Splendour with the Lord’s beautiful words sounding forth, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; enter in to the joy of the Lord’.”

Our brother passed away suddenly on August 8, 2014, shocking and saddening us all. He is predeceased by his loving mother Mary Louise Prokopetz nee Vanjoff and father Jonn (Jack) Relkov. Survived by his siblings: Nick, Drena & family, Hazel, Alex, Pete, Joanne & family, Gail, Dan & family, Wally, Anna & family, Donna, Doug & family. Also Billy’s one remaining aunt Anne & family. Also there are many, many cousins from his mom and dad’s side of the family left to miss him. There have been many great memories for all of us from the time he was a young boy and into his years of manhood. We will always love and miss him and hope he is soaring with the eagles and checking out the universe he so loved to study. Memorial date and location to follow.

Dad is such a special word, A word that brings to mind, A big warm smile, a helping hand A way of being kind, Devotion to the family, A word of patience too, “Dad” is such a special word, Because it stands for “you.” What we’d give if we could say Hello Dad, in the same old way; To hear your voice, see your smile, To sit with you and chat awhile. So you who have a father, Cherish him with care, For you’ll never know the heartache Till you see that vacant chair. Sadness still comes over us, Tears in silence often flow, Memory keeps you ever near us, Though you died three years ago. As you were you will always be, Treasured forever in our memory.

letes of all ages and all kinds of sports. It’s your Destiny Summer and early fall are usually pretty slow for video games. Most games come out a month or two before Christmas. This year is no exception. The only real big game to come out recently is Titanfall and that came out back in March. However, coming out next week is Destiny for the Xbox One and Playstation 4. Destiny is developed by the same guys who made Halo so you know it’s probably going to be very good. I played the “beta” which is a test version and it was a lot of fun. I’m excited. Destiny is basically a fourplayer online coop game. This seems to be the new trend. You go online with three other players (buddies or strangers) and fight against hordes of aliens as you try to complete a fairly short mission. With lots of great weapons and teamwork, it looks like fun. TV, you know you love it Next week I’ll talk about different exercise programs, but here I’m looking at the new fall TV schedule.

games, summer is a wasteland for TV. Although I did start watching Orange is the New Black, which is quite good. All about women in prison. The less said about Under the Dome the better. Comic book movies have done very well lately and now your seeing more on TV. Flash is sort of a spin-off of the successful Arrow. It could be interesting. I really enjoyed the speedster (Quicksilver) from X-Men: Days of Future Past. Played by American Horror Story (another great show) actor Evan Peters. He’s so good. I liked how he wasn’t just really fast, he could actually kind of stop time like Hiro in Heroes. Interesting too that the upcoming Avengers sequel will feature a different Quicksilver. Apparently, different studios own the rights to X-Men and Avengers so they can’t appear together but Quicksilver apparently can be in both even if he’s completely different. Sorry, back to task. Gotham is a new show based on Gotham City before Batman. Could be interesting sort of like Marvel’s Agents of Shield.
