Union, B.C. government reach tentative deal to end teachers strike; school likely to begin Monday TRE VOR CR AWLEY Townsman Staff

The teachers’ union and the B.C. government have reached a tentative settlement that could see schools reopen across the province as early as next week after a three-month long strike. The BC Teachers’ Federation and the B.C. Public Schools Employers’ Association reached an agreement in the early hours of Tuesday morning after negotiating a marathon session in the sixth day of talks involving veteran mediator Vince Ready in Richmond. The deal must go to a ratification vote by BCTF members on Thursday, with the province-wide results likely coming through on Friday. “We’re all pretty excited,” said Lynn Hauptman, superintendent for School District No. 5. “I know when I came into work this morning and stopped and chatted with the folks on the picket line, we were all cheering. I had a brief email conversation with our union president—it’s the

same thing there. “…We’re just so excited for our students and their parents to have the children back in school. We hope it’s on Monday, but we’re still not sure.” Specific details regarding the new agreement between the two sides have yet to be made public as of press time. The announcement, which came in at roughly 4 a.m. on Tuesday, was well-received by Shelley Balfour, president of the Cranbrook District Teachers’ Association. “I am very excited for the parents, the children, the teachers and the support workers in B.C,” she said. “This is a great day. I anticipate that we will be back to school early next week and we can’t all hardly wait to get there. “I visited the teachers on the line this morning and the reaction has all been very positive. Everybody wants to be back to work.”

The city has received a petition opposing the use of a residential home as emergency and transitional housing and asks the city to withhold a business license until its authors can address council. At Monday night’s council meeting, mayor and councillors discussed the petition. Mayor Wayne Stetski noted that there were 19 signatures which represented 27 people on the petition. Attached to the petition was the Ktunaxa Nation Social Sector poster which talks about turning the building at 202 13th Avenue into Scotty’s House, a 20 bed residential facility. The poster states that it would serve as a community living home share, as well as emergency and transitional housing. Coun. Angus Davis said he understood the concern, but had a story to tell relating to the matter. “I attended a facility in Maple Ridge a number of years ago. It housed about 40 people and none of these people were people that were on the high list of society.” He said the facility was in a residential neighbourhood.

A key part of Cranbrook’s cultural identity marked its 40th anniversary at a special ceremony last week. Guests and members of Cranbrook Community Theatre gathered Thursday, Sept. 11, at the Studio Stage Door, the building the group saved 40 years ago, and which they have been stewards of ever since. Kevin Higgins gave some introductory comments. He told how 40 years ago, a group that included Bud Abbott, Cornel Sawchuk and Phil Foster convinced the City to not bulldoze the old Masonic Lodge. Cranbrook Community Theatre (CCT) thus becoming stewards of the building, and have been serving in that role for 40 years. “Looking after a building hasn’t been all sunshine and roses,” Higgins said. “But 40 years after the initial agreement, the partners are still working together. We’re here to celebrate a great working relationship between local government and volunteering citizens as it continues to work.” Melodie Hull serving as MC, and Lorraine Harvey, longtime CCT board member and stage manager, reflected “this huge part of Cranbrook’s cultural heritage and history, from 1974 to 2014.” Bud Abbott gave a thumbnail history of the last 40 years, starting from CCT’s activities in the 1960s. “Our group was quite active, even competitive, rehearsing at home, performing wherever possible, usually in auditoriums,” Abbott said. “Costumes and props were stored whenever possible. But it was always a problem — where to perform and where to store our stuff. “Then, in the early 1970s, the Masons put their building on 11th Avenue South on the market. Ralph Trozzo, owner of the Mount Baker, wanted to buy the building and tear it down to enhance parking. “We approached Ralph Trozzo,” Abbott said, “who agreed to let us have the building for nothing provided we remove it from the prem-

The group had no idea what they were taking on, he said. To both present plays and to take care of the building — “and the conflict between the two functions would trouble us for many years to come.” Then began the long history of theatrical renovations, which Abbott recounted. A stage was initially built, then risers in 1977 (masterminded by Garry Anderson), the original seats (since replaced) came from an old movie theatre in Fernie. Many solutions were attempted at solving the problem of get-

ting actors to the stage without involving the audience, including the use of a drawbridge at one point, and a “dicy” circular staircase from the green room on the ground floor. Finally, the present day tunnel was built, allowing actors to reach the stage without going through the audience. “Over the years, we’ve spent an enormous amount on money renovating this building,” Abbott said. “Someone estimated $500,000, which is more than the City paid for it. I’m sure Mayor and Council appreciate having such a helpful lessee.” Terry Miller took the stage to thank all the people who’ve worked behind the scenes and the those who’ve served as building managers. These include Harriet Pollock, Steve Lungal,

Elvin Townsend, Kossene Foster and Rick and Marianne Smith. “We’ve been fortunate to have really good people here who really care about this building, and they’ve all left their mark.” Miller read out greetings sent by Brad Price, who built the tunnel to the stage, and Phil and Maggie Foster, who were part of the group who helped save the building. Mayor Wayne Stetski also spoke, citing a list of top cultural phenomena and events of 1974, and mentioning how many of those had faded into the pages of history. “Yet this relationship (between CCT and the City of Cranbrook) has endured,” he said. CCT actors then performed tableaux of various plays from CCT’s oeuvre: Tracy McGuire

did a monologue from “Enchanted April,” Terry Miller and Peter Schalk performed at scene from “Run For Your Wife,” Melodie Hull did a monologue from “Talking With …” and Bud Abbott performed a piece made famous byStanley Holloway — “The Lion and Albert (otherwise known as Albert and the Lion).” The Little Jazz Orchestra then performed a jazz set. Following that, they performed underscore music while a slide show played of posters and photographs of all the plays Cranbrook Community Theatre has presented over the past 40 years — more than 80 of them, beginning with CCT’s first production at the Studio Stage Door, the complex musical “Canterbury Tales,” directed by David Stock.

Teachers’ strike end suddenly in sight Continued from page 1 The first step is ratification, which could happen as early as Thursday or Friday. Once a new agreement is officially in place, teachers can return to the classroom and start preparing for the year. “We would like a day at least to get stuff organized because many people walked out in June and have not been able to return,” added Balfour. “We have people who retired who have all their stuff still in the classroom—that all needs to come out. “We want it to be great for the kids when they come back, so hopefully we’ll have a day to do that.” Maintenance and custodial staff, which are members of the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE), have been in the schools all summer to keep everything in good shape, according to Hauptman. “They’re clean; they’re ready to go,” she said. “We were able to do a lot of our big projects over the summer, so we’re ready.” The school calendar was set to open on Tuesday, Sept. 2, 2014, however, the BCTF remained on a full-scale strike, as the union and the the BCPSEA had yet to bridge the gap

on a number of issues regarding a new collective bargaining agreement. The impact on students missing out on two complete weeks of school has yet to be determined, according to Hauptman. “That is information that we need to wait to come from the Ministry of Education, so I know they’re looking at all those kind of things,” Hauptman said. “They were waiting to find out how much of the school year was affected through this then they’ll make some decisions and let us know.” School could potentially open as early as Monday and open in the same fashion as a new school year, meaning elementary schools are only in session for a half-day. “At the moment, we’re planning—if it is Monday—that it will be our usual school opening,” added Hauptman, “which for elementary school, is a half-day, so that we can still meet as a staff and do some of the work that has to be done in terms of school openings.” For more information on the start of the new school year, visit the SD5 website at www.sd5.bc.ca.

Council discusses petition from concerned residents Continued from page 1 “And you know something, that residential neighbourhood treated you like a million bucks,” he said. “So I have to look at what the Ktunaxa want to do with this house, but I hope that they do what they want to do. I understand that it’s tough sometimes to be on the outside of society

and be judged for a number of things. It’s beautiful to be in a neighbourhood that says ‘hey, we don’t care where you came from Angus Davis, you stay here as long as you want.’” Davis hoped that they could get something like that here.

“I do know that we have to have an open mind about what people want to do,” he said. “If we can help some people, we should help them.” Stetski said he does understand the concerns from residents, as for one it doesn’t fit the Public Institution Zoning (P-1). Coun. Gerry Warner said

he supports in principle what Davis said. Warner said he lived in a nice neighbourhood in Whitehorse. The half duplex that he owned was across from townhouses that were being converted into a senior’s development. “People in the neighbourhood just went ballis-

tic,” he said. “They didn’t want seniors living in their neighbourhood.” He said in brings up some important points. “Do we live in a civilized society that tries to look after each other or not?” Warner asked. Warner said it’s also a fair question to ask for more information on what the

Ktunaxa Nation’s plans are for the facility. Warner said there is the possibility of the issue developing into a nasty situation, so it deserves a well thought-out approach from council. Stetski put a motion forward to get more information from staff and council voted in favour of that.

City looks for spray irrigation motor control replacement A rn e Pe t rys h e n Townsman Staff

The city was looking to address vulnerability it found in its current Motor Control Center for the Irrigation Pump Station. The engineering department was looking for up to $70,000 to spend on a design so construction can start this winter season on replacement. “The intent would be to try to include it in grant applications from Build Canada,” Mayor Wayne Stetski said at Monday’s council meeting. CAO Wayne Staudt said the city may already be in a situation where waiting for the fund to get up and running is not an option. He also noted the city is below the $2 million threshold for the

fund. “We need to move quickly on it,” Staudt said about the project. “We may have to borrow this money and get this project done.” Staudt noted that it is a sensitive project and without it they can’t operate the spray irrigation field without the system in place. Over the summer, a fire and a large failure occurred inside the centre at the Spray Irrigation Facility. The centre continued to operate after the fire, however the department sees a catastrophic failure in the near future. The centre is also obsolete and replacement parts are no longer available. “The parts for total replacement are long lead items which can

take up to six months to arrive and install,” the city’s report said. “With a long wait time on total replacement, the city cannot wait for the MCC (motor control center) to fail before replacement.” The department noted that if the unit failed during the summer spray season, which is the only time the centre operates, it could overtop storage ponds 1 and 2, since the city would no longer be able to remove treated water and meet obligations to keep pond 2 at 824 meters. The total cost of replacement is estimated at $560,000. The centre would take four months for delivery with additional two months for installation.

The irrigation season starts May 1. If all of the timelines are met, the engineering department predicts the installation could be complete the beginning of April with a few weeks contingency left before the irrigation season in May. They warn that if the city doesn’t replace the center and a catastrophic failure occurs at the beginning of the irrigation season, the city would be in an emergency situation having to find a method to remove 3 million cubic meters of treated water from Storage Ponds 1 and 2 over the summer months. Council voted in favour of the recommendation to authorize city staff to spend up to $70,000 on the design.

Canada, you’re No. 1 in America’s heart, U.S. online survey suggests C anadian Press

WASHINGTON — Canada, you’re apparently America’s sweetheart — or so says a new survey. When Americans were asked to rate their favourite nations, the cold country to the north elicited the warmest feelings. Conducted since 1974, the Chicago Council on Global Affairs sur-

vey asked respondents this year to rate their feelings for other countries — with one being the coldest and 100 being the coziest. Canada came out with a top score of 79 per cent. Britain was next, at 74 per cent. Germany, Japan and France all scored in the 60s, too. The U.S.’s other neighbour, Mexico, came in at 54 per cent.

Vince ‘Veni Vidi Vici’ Ready Vince Ready came. He saw … then he walked away. And we despaired. “If Vince Ready can’t do it, then no one can,” we thought. But Vince Ready came back. Vince Ready took another look. And Vince Ready conquered. This is not to compare Vince Ready to Julius Caesar, whose “veni, vidi, vici” came to represent the last word in quick, efficient victory in battle. But with one marathon bargaining session, Mr. Ready’s place as the greatest Canadian labour mediator of the age is confirmed. Only three weeks ago, he walked away from talks between the BCTF and the Province, saying the sides were too far apart. And we the rest of us set our teeth together and prepared for a long autumn of discord, for eventual legislation that would belatedly start the school year, but would leave ongoing animosity in its wake. A solution that would be no solution at all. A bad peace, as they say, that would only lead to another war. But Vince Ready’s powerful aura does not disappear that easily. Back he came, into the fray. A province full of parents thanks you, Mr. Ready. Credit, one supposes, should be given to the bargaining teams of both sides and their respective decisions to work towards some middle ground. But considering the depth of the impasse even last week, I, personally, choose to refer to Vince Ready in hushed terms of awe, for accomplishing,

yet again, the impossible. If school begins Monday, Sept. 22, then there has been a three-week delay in school opening (I’m not counting the last two weeks of June — though perhaps I should). That’s a long enough time, but we were preparing for a lot worse — like a month and a half delay. That’s the point when damage would have been caused to the stuBarry dents academically. But three weeks? That’s Coulter short enough so no longterm damage is caused, but long enough that the students have become bored, and will go back to school with a high level of enthusiasm. Sure, they’re saying that nobody won in this case, everybody lost — government, students, teachers, parents. But that fact that everybody can now get on with their business — government, teachers, students and parents — is a victory and a cause for joy. Though neither side, as of this writing, has confirmed the terms of Tuesday’s deal, it is reportedly for six years. Students going into Grade 7 this year will have graduated by the time the next round of bargaining is due. As well, the pay increase is (allegedly) set at 7.25 per cent, which in line with other public sector workers. The deal (according to CBC’s sources) also includes $100 million more for class size and composition. The government had been offering to set aside $300 million for a learning improvement fund for teach-

LABOUR MEDIATOR VINCE READY ers but has now increased it to $400 million. The CBC also quotes: “The province has also reportedly dropped the controversial E80 clause from contract wording on class size and composition. That was the clause that superseded all previous class size and composition agreements and the teachers feared it would nullify an earlier B.C. Supreme Court ruling in their favour on those issues.” It almost strikes me as a deal that could be the beginning of the end of the decade(s) of warfare between BCTF and government. That is astounding. It couldn’t have been done without Vince Ready. His work here is done! Barry Coulter is Editor of the Cranbrook Daily Townsman

2014-15 WHL Regular Season Preview: East Division With help from beat reporters from around the WHL, The Townsman takes a look at what to expect this season. We shift our focus to the East Division. 2013-14: 39-26-4-3, first in East Division, swept in first round. Head coach: John Paddock (first season). Key losses: C Boston Leier, RW Dyson Stevenson, D Jesse Zgraggen (graduated), C

Chandler Stephenson (signed, Washington) and D Dmitry Sinitsyn (signed, KHL). 20-year-olds: C Patrick D’Amico, C Logan McVeigh, LW Braden Christoffer. Imports: LW Max

Kammerer and rookie D Sergey Zborovskiy. Key returnees: Morgan Klimchuk poised to join WHL elite … Support from Connor Gay and Dryden Hunt … Kyle Burroughs and Colby Williams will log

big minutes … G Daniel Wapple ready as starter. New: C Sam Steel headlines rookies F Luc Smith, F Jake Elmer, F Jared McAmmond, F Rykr Cole, F Colton Kroeker, D James Hilsendager, D Ryan Krushen.

Watch for: Steel and Zborovskiy to play major roles as rookies. Noteworthy: Klimchuk is candidate for Canadian world juniors. Did you know? Paddock is making first foray into juniors after

more than 30 years pro. Prognosis: Pats are young and lost too many key players to challenge for a second straight division title. Barring a fire sale, they should compete for a playoff spot.

Swift Current Broncos

2013-14: 38-25-3-6, fifth in Eastern Conference. Head coach: Mark Lamb (sixth season). Key losses: G Eetu Laurikainen, C Nathan Burns, C Graham Black (graduated).

20-year-olds: RW Coda Gordon, C Colby Cave reached 70 points. D Stephen Shmoorkoff is longshot; final spot to F Andrew Johnson. Imports: D Julius Honka (16G, 40A) will quarterback power play. Swede Andreas Schum-

acher picked 96th overall in CHL Import Draft. Key returnees: Cave, Gordon and Jay Merkley (66 pts) lead forwards; big things expected from Glenn Gawdin (22 pts), Jake DeBrusk (39 pts). D includes Dillon Heatherington, Brett Lernout

and Brycen Martin. G Landon Bow takes over for Laurikainen . New: Tyler Steenbergen and Cole Johnson (12th and 34th overall, 2013) stood out. Luca Leone and Schumacher, along with F Tyler Adams and F Austin Calladine

will start in Swift Current. G Travis Child makes debut as backup. Watch for: Upgrades to over-agers and goal if Johnson or Bow struggle. Noteworthy: Cave has played 148 straight games, missing two since joining the Bron-

cos full-time in 2011-12. Did you know? 38 wins last year were most of Lamb’s five seasons. Prognosis: Broncos should battle Brandon for division crown. Anything short of conference final will be disappointment.

Brandon Wheat Kings

round. Head coach: Kelly McCrimmon (12th season as coach, 26th as general manager). Key loss: D Ryan Pulock is set to play pro. 20-year-olds: D Eric Roy (Calgary Flames), RW Peter Quenneville (New York Rangers) and

Czech LW Richard Nejezchleb (New York Rangers) are all in pro camps, but unsigned. Imports: Latvian RW Rihards Bukarts (28G, 26A) and rookie Russian D Ivan Provorov are holding spots for now. Key returnees: C John Quenneville (25G,

33A) and RW Jayce Hawryluk (24G, 40A), were picked 30th by the New Jersey Devils and 32nd by the Florida Panthers, respectively, in this year’s NHL draft … C Tim McGauley (21G, 39A) is one of the team’s best two-way forwards … G Jordan Papirny was

stellar in last season’s playoffs (.914 save pct.) … D Ryan Pilon (7G, 29A) was Pulock’s understudy and will handle increased responsibility. New: C Nolan Patrick and D Kale Clague, picked fourth and sixth, respectively, in the 2013 bantam draft … C Tan-

ner Kaspick was the top goal-scorer Canada U-17 camp. Watch for: Brandon will score but if preventing becomes a problem, expect a trade for help. Noteworthy: Provorov is new, but played three years in the U.S. Did you know? Haw-

ryluk is the second Wheat King drafted 32nd overall by Florida, joining G Tyler Plante (2005). Prognosis: With abundant young talent, and 2014 No.1 overall pick Stelio Mattheos arriving next year, Brandon is poised to join WHL elite.

eighth in Eastern Conference Head coach: Cory Clouston (second season) Key losses: G Cole Cheveldave, LW Collin Valcourt (graduated); LW Chance Braid (traded), RW Carson Perreaux (retired).

20-year-olds: RW Dakota Conroy, RW Jayden Hart, LW Calder Brooks and D Sawyer Lange. Imports: Should C Leon Draisaitl stick with Edmonton Oilers, Raiders will move forward with C Simon Stransky and D Tomas Andrlik.

Key returnees: GM Bruno Campese working under assumption Draisaitl and D Josh Morrissey will not return. D Sawyer Lange will anchor power play; C Reid Gardiner will compete for minutes. G Nick McBride looks to establish himself as a starter after

stealing net last season. New: D Hunter Warner will provide big body that was absent last season. C Jordan Tkatch is coming off 46-point season with the Cougars. Watch for: Gardiner to have a big year and

show NHL clubs why they were nuts to pass on him in Philadelphia. Noteworthy: McBride was first 16-year-old goalie since 2001 to be on roster full-time. Did you know? Clouston has never

missed post-season as a head coach in the WHL. Prognosis: If Morrissey and Draisaitl return, Raiders will contend in East. If not, they might have enough depth to eke out playoff spot.

(graduated); Colton McCarthy, Josh Uhrich, Miles Warkentine (traded); F Bryson Gore did not return. 20-year-olds: Tanner Eberle, Jack Rodewald and Jaimen Yakubowski expected to beat Scott Cooke for overage slots. Imports: D Alexey Sleptsov had strong World Under-18. LW Jiri Smejkal taken 12th in 2014 CHL Import Draft. Key returnees: C Brayden Point had 91

points, most since Troy Brouwer led WHL in 2005-06. Goalies Justin Paulic and Zach Sawchenko will be leaned upon. Spenser Jensen, Dallas Valentine, Reid Zalitach need to assume bigger roles. New: Warriors have high hopes for D Austin Adam. Noah Gregor and Brett Howden will be expected to chip in. Yakubowski and Kolten Olynek add to depth. Watch for: Howden,

Gregor, Jayden Halbgewachs key as rookies. Noteworthy: Sawchenko started in goal as Canada’s U18s won Ivan Hlinka Tournament. Did you know? Former coach Mike Stothers left after three years to coach AHL Manchester. Prognosis: Warriors revamped offence in bid to end two-year playoff absence; need increased production, goaltending to compensate for inexperienced defence.

Alex Moodie, D Clayton Kirichenko (traded). 20-year-olds: Brett Stovin is longest-serving Blade with 191 regular season games. G Troy Trombley ended season as starter; C Chase Clayton in the mix. Imports: RW Nikita Scherbak, leading scorer (78 pts); LW Nikita Soshnin taken ninth in CHL import draft. Swedish D Amil Krupic went 69th. One will move if Scherbak returns from NHL. Key returnees: D

Nelson Nogier missed half of 2013-14 (injury); LW Ryan Graham earned; draft-eligible C Cameron Hebig. New: C Wyatt Sloboshan; D Jordan Thomson. Former first-round bantam picks Ty Mappin, Alex Forsberg. Watch for: Upgrade to goaltending and 20-year-olds; possible trade of Scherbak. Noteworthy: Nogier was drafted 101st overall by Winnipeg, becoming first born-and-raised

player from Saskatoon area selected in NHL draft as a Blade since G Michael Garnett (80th, Atlanta, 2001). Did you know? Before Woods coached in NHL as an assistant he was a D-man for Wheat Kings from 1987 to 1989. Prognosis: Blades, underwent full-scale rebuild and posted second-worst record in 50year history. They’ve improved, but not enough to make playoffs.

Ninth Annual

by Jacqueline Bigar

ARIES (March 21-April 19) A smile says a lot, and it adds to others’ willingness to approach you. You are known for having a hot temper. You could be stressed out by a new demand. Perhaps you want to consider saying “no” to any new responsibilities. Tonight: Join a friend for some munchies. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Your ability to express yourself clearly will emerge. A loved one is likely to be quite touched by your caring. Know what is necessary to make a situation workable. Allow greater creativity to flow through all aspects of your life, not just a few. Tonight: Be naughty and nice. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You might worry a lot about a family member and how he or she relates to a mutual friend of yours. Even if there is some kind of friction, you need to accept both people as they are. Demonstrate caring, and the gap will be bridged. Tonight: Your treat.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You’ll beam despite someone’s unpredictability and ability to shake things up. At this point, this behavior is becoming predictable. Maintain a sense of humor, but don’t laugh out loud. Tonight: Invite an older friend or family member to join you for dinner. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You might want to delay a conversation, as you will want to reflect a little more on your recent choices. Treat a friend or loved one to a late lunch. Let this person know how important he or she is. Your indulgence makes this person feel cared for. Tonight: Out and about. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) In a discussion with a friend, focus on the friendship instead of a minor issue. Your caring is likely to evolve to a new level. One-on-one relating draws excitement and unpredictability. Your smile could save the day in a tense situation. Tonight: Among the crowds. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You are in the limelight, and

Tundra

are enjoying every moment. Understand that responsibilities naturally team up with this type of visibility; be ready to accept them gracefully. A partner or associate might not be as steady as you might like. Keep smiling. Tonight: Leader of the gang. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Let your imagination play out, especially in a project involving others. Share more of your feelings and thoughts with a close loved one. This person adores this part of your personality. Others might be overwhelmed. Tonight: Reach out to a loved one at a distance. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You could be experiencing a lot of different emotions, and might not know how to express them to others. Don’t worry -they probably already know, as they are very sensitive and pick up on your vibes with ease. Accept their caring. Tonight: How about dinner for two? CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You could be responding to someone’s strong stance instead of assuming control. You

might need to learn to be as receptive as you are assertive. Understand that this experience might be more important for you than you realize. Tonight: Go along with a suggestion. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might feel the need to accomplish a lot, and you will. However, expect a certain amount of disruption from others. Choose to let calls go to voicemail right now to avoid getting entangled in a long conversation. Tonight: Off to the gym for some exercise. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Look within before trying to manipulate an associate or loved one. Why would you even need to do this? Let others make their own choices. By letting go, you will allow greater give-andtake between you and this person. Tonight: Make it romantic.

Rhymes with Orange

By Hillary B. Price

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My husband and I have been married more than 40 years. He rarely calls me by my name and never uses terms of endearment. He just talks at me. I’ve put up with his emotional neglect and his forcing me to have sex when I didn’t want to. He’s had so many affairs, I have lost count. He has refused to do any repairs to our home except for the cheapest kind. He also built a garage as big as our house, and it’s so filled with junk that there is barely enough room for the cars. He also piles junk in the house. This man is a scoutmaster, and everyone thinks he is a saint. He was on a nearby campout, and when I came home last night and turned on the kitchen lights, sparks shot out everywhere and all the electricity went off. I called my husband and told him he had to come fix it. He came home and played with the fuse box and then said I had to call an electrician. He said he was going back to camp. But he didn’t. I called him after he left -and long after he should have returned to the campsite -- but he still wasn’t there. He said he had just reached the town limits. When I asked where he had been all this time, he made up some flimsy excuse. What can I do? -- No Lights Dear No Lights: You can ask yourself why you are still with a man who neglects you, physically assaults you, has multiple affairs and can’t even bother to keep his home in good repair. We would consider this an abusive relationship. You cannot force your husband to be a decent man. You can, however, call the National Domestic Violence Hotline (thehotline.org) at 1-800-799-SAFE and also get counseling for yourself. Ask your doctor to refer you. Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Arizona,” whose friend “Mary” had cut off their friendship after 30 years because Arizona didn’t use her mortgage lender. In your response, you said Mary is high maintenance, emotionally demanding, etc. When I read the letter, I judged her to be getting a kickback from the mortgage lender. Second, why is the name “Mary” used so often when things are bad? After all, there is a famous Mary from the Bible. -- Mary B. Dear Mary: To answer your first comment, we agree that Mary may have been getting a kickback, but it doesn’t make her any less high maintenance. “Arizona” said Mary had used this type of emotional blackmail in the past. As to your second question, we don’t deliberately use the name “Mary” to indicate anything negative. We use the pretend names the readers give us or create our own to disguise the identities of the people involved. Mary is a popular and common name, so it pops up a lot, and because most people write us when they have a problem, it would stand to reason that many nasty things involve “Mary.” But we think you’re a peach, so we’ll try not to use it too often. Dear Annie: Thank you for publishing information about gluten and celiac disease. You wrote that gluten stimulates an immune response in celiac disease patients and then went on to mention long-term damage and implications. It could help to heighten awareness among waitstaff and hosts if they knew the specific immediate immune responses gluten provokes in people with celiac disease. For example, my daughter suffers severe abdominal pain and unrelenting diarrhea within a day or two of ingesting gluten. No one would knowingly provoke anaphylactic shock in a person with a nut allergy by “inadvertently” serving them peanuts, so people might be more careful about gluten if they knew the physical symptoms it causes. -- Gluten-Free Mom Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Dave was born in Nelson BC, to Harry â&#x20AC;&#x153;Redâ&#x20AC;? and Dorothy Wassick on August 2, 1949. His brothers and sisters are Guy (Dianne) Wassick, Harriet (Nick) Bowolin, Juliet (Bill) Genero, and Brant Wassick. They will forever have great memories of growing up with Dave at Kootenay Lake, playing on the beach, fishing and doing any and every sport. He also made a lot of great memories with the Pepinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s as part of his great big family. In the heavens, Dave is awaiting his wife Jeannie Argatoff who he so cherished, and his children Renee Wassick, Erin and Paul Werbicki, Sherri and Gary McPherson, Erin Argatoff and Karie Daniel, and Robert and Kayla Argatoff. He continues to watch over his beautiful grandchildren Donovan, Anya, Kate, Tegan, Gracie and Ella. Dave is a beloved son, brother, father, friend, husband and Dyeda (grandpa).
