Planning Society releases phase one results of Similkameen Watershed study
Public input sought as phase two gets underway By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com
Members of the Similkameen Valley Planning Society and staff from the Regional District Okanagan Similkameen hosted an open house to bring Similkameen residents up to date with the progress of the Similkameen Watershed Study on Tuesday, October 7. SVPS Chair Manfred Bauer explained the study’s beginnings to a gathering of approximately 15 residents at Victory Hall. He said the study Photo by Steve Arstad came about after two other studies - an amenity study in 2009 and a 2011 strategy study for a sustainable Similkameen Grist Mill Manager Chris Mathieson drops numbered apples into Keremeos Creek during Apple Day - pointed to water as the number one apple races.

news A sinkhole was discovered Monday, October 6 on the Ashnola Road approximately three kilometres west of Red Bridge. Argo Road Maintenance personnel quickly repaired the void, which is believed to have been caused by beavers after a nearby culvert plugged up. The hole measured approxiimately one metre across by a half metre deep, and would have caused considerable damage had someone had the misfortune to drive into it. Photo by Steve Arstad

Keremeos Irrigation District celebrates reservoir commissioning Controversial project gives system storage capacity and will improve water delivery during peak flow demands in addition to reducing the need for new wells By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com Keremeos Irrigation District Board Chair Roger Mayer called it “an important milestone for Keremeos Irrigation District” on Tuesday afternoon, October 7 as the KID celebrated the commissioning of the district’s first reservoir. Mayor recited a short history of the project before a sparse crowd at Victory Hall. The reservoir, which
was subject to some controversy, first became a priority for the district in 2000. The district was able to secure higher levels of funding through an application made by the village to secure a $300,000 gas tax grant, which enabled the project to move forward without an excessive burden to Keremeos Irrigation District ratepayers. Tenders were issued last fall, construction began in January this year, and the 500,000 gallon reservoir became operational in late September. Mayer told the audience the new reservoir could now handle higher peak flow demands from the village, and would lessen the need to drill new wells. Thanking the village and the regional district for their help, Mayer told those present, “It shows what we can do when we all work together.” Mark Pendergraft, RDOS Chair,
was also on hand. He offered congratulations to the district, while KID consultant Kevin Huey told the group that pipeline upgrading was the next project that would be tackled by the Keremeos Irrigation District. The reservoir project ran into controversy when a number of villagers petitioned their opposition to it through the alternative approval process. They argued the reservoir was unnecessary and too costly, but a referendum that followed the AAP in April 2013 produced a majority who favoured the project. Those opposed to the project were incensed after the issue proceeded to referendum, insisting their voices were ignored because the irrigation district was determined to build the reservoir no matter what the public said.
The Keremeos reservoir commissioning ceremony took place during a small meeting on Tuesday, October 7 at Victory Hall. In photo, at the reser voir is, from left: Kevin Huey, Mark Pendergraft, Roger Mayer, Manfred Bauer, Ian Walters, Ed Minshull, Judy Minschull, Brian Barber and Gary Thielman.

“The chaplaincy work I do because of my faith from a community perspective, not out of a sense of obligation,” said Wiebe, who has been full time pastor at Elim Tabernacle since 2009, and a minister since 2004. “I’ve had many good conversations with people without raising the issue of religious faith,” he added. Wiebe has also contributed to Keremeos’ volunteer scene by helping to stage the “Kids Under the ‘K’” event for two summers, in 2011 and 2013. He has assisted with Canada Day celebrations, in addition to helping Elim Tabernacle stage Halloween fireworks for the community’s enjoyment. “There are things we can do that can maximize the quality of life in a small town - I ask myself, how does that look?” said Wiebe, who is also doing his homework in anticipation of a council chair. “I went to the village office, asked questions, asked for a copy of the budget,” he said, “I’m researching the job. I’ve also spoken to former council members about the duties of a councillor.” I believe in asking questions in search of workable, lasting solutions.” Wiebe sees three main issues challenging the village: health care, economic development and public safety. “I’m interested in health care as it relates to the Village of Keremeos,” he said, “ we have excellent health care facilities here. I’d like to work to ensure residents continue to have access to the health care services they need.” “The village needs to pursue eonomic development - realistic economic development. Let’s try and find that. I believe the solution is going to involve a lot of homework.” “My idea of public safety involves helping to find solutions to pressing social issues and other ‘big picture things’” he said. Jason resides in Keremeos with wife Melissa and four children.

The Review
Publisher: Don Kendall 605 7th Avenue, Box 130, Keremeos, B.C. V0X 1N0
Editorial Choice at the ballot box not necessarily a sign of unrest The nomination period has closed and residents of Keremeos, the Lower Simlkameen and the South Okanagan now know whose names will be part of this year’s municipal election campaign. Ontario also goes to the polls this year for municipal elections. A report from that province suggests that the high number of candidates running for office in some cities and towns there is the result of discontent and unrest over municipal taxation and fiscal policies. This year, Keremeos has races for the mayor’s chair and for council seats, while interestingly enough, Princeton has no need at all for election night, after all the municipal positions were filled by acclamation. Are the full ballots in Keremeos due to discontent? Does this mean Princeton residents are completely satisfied with their municipal governements? We can’t deny there isn’t some discontent amongst some residents in the village, but not to any extreme that we can see. It appears to us that Keremeos has a healthy democracy, where people are interested and active enough to challenge the status quo and run for their beliefs. People are running in support of their community, or in the belief that there ideas will improve life in the village. At the same time, we have to wonder what the real reason is for Princeton’s candidate numbers, or lack thereof. Is it because people are satisfied with the status quo? Or is it because no one cares enough to challenge it?

THE
Time for truth in B.C. treaty talks By Tom Fletcher Black Press
Three years ago, longtime chief and band administrator Sophie Pierre sought an extension of her term leading the B.C. Treaty Commission and gave a warning. The federal and provincial government should start taking this long and costly effort seriously or “shut ’er down.” Last week Pierre wound up her sixth and final year as chief commissioner on a slightly more hopeful note. This year, the Tla’amin Nation in the Powell River area and the Yale First Nation in the Fraser Canyon had their treaties proclaimed by Ottawa. They join the Maanulth First Nations on Vancouver Island and the Tsawwassen First Nation in leaving behind the Indian Act and the courts to get on with self-government. Tsawwassen in particular has moved ahead aggressively. Its shopping
centre development near the ferry terminal is one of the largest commercial projects in the province right now. All of these treaties were negotiated despite multiple overlapping territorial claims around them, and similar progress has been made with the Tsimshian First Nations on the North Coast and elsewhere. The need for aboriginal people to work out their overlapping claim issues between themselves was the focus of the commission’s 22nd annual report. In it, former chief commissioners Miles Richardson of the Haida Nation and Steven Point of the Sto:lo Nation added their influential voices, urging aboriginal communities to consider them shared territories, rather than clinging to ancient tribal rivalries. Another hopeful sign is that after seven years of commissions and studies, the federal government has finally given its negotiators a mandate to negotiate fisheries.
This year’s landmark decision of the Supreme Court of Canada, recognizing Tsilhqot’in Nation title in the remote Nemiah Valley, has also got the attention of Victoria and Ottawa. Pierre said this court ruling “should destroy any lingering thoughts that this issue is not of the utmost importance, and provide the necessary investment, both financial and time commitment, to reach satisfactory conclusions.” That’s the good news for B.C.’s thorniest historical problem, the lack of treaties across most of the province. It’s also becoming clearer that the Tsilhqot’in ruling is unique. It’s unlikely to be repeated by most other First Nations, even if they are willing and able to spend the years and millions to enrich lawyers in pursuit of it. Here’s the bad news. As of this year, the B.C. Treaty Commission has paid out $627 million to First Nations to support treaty

negotiations. Most of that is in the form of loans, which are to be repaid out of the cash settlements that Ottawa contributes to settle modern treaties. Pierre acknowledges that some communities are close to completing treaties, but their debt has climbed to near what Ottawa is offering. This would leave them free but broke. Others are just “spinning their wheels” with no real hope of achieving a treaty, Pierre said. The commission is calling for an “exit strategy” for these communities, starting with loan forgiveness that would allow them to pursue economic activity. There are First Nations, Westbank and Osoyoos prominent among them, which are thriving without treaties. Haida and Klahoose have developed successful forest products businesses as they move toward self-government. Federal and provincial governments must recognize the successes, and the failures.

MLA Larson reports a busy September
Linda Larson MLA, Boundary - Similkameen In creating some clips during a video tour of our riding for my MLA website, I had the opportunity to focus on just a few of the many outstanding small businesses and attractions in our area. A visit to Silver Sage Winery is an experience you don’t want to miss. Anna Manola has entertained the visitors to her winery with a unique blend of great wine and laughter. Her story is one of determination to succeed despite personal tragedy and includes her passion for the land and the wine. From there we visited Black Hills, another distinctive offering in the South Okanagan. Their Nota Bene wine has an incredible following and has brought many people to the area. Their desire to go “green” had them install one of the first electric car charging stations in the Okanagan Valley, encouraging people to travel Hwy 97 from south to north, enjoying wine and being conscious of the environment at the same time. The Desert Centre in Osoyoos was our next stop.
This national treasure of 67 acres is the only piece of desert in Canada. A dedicated team of volunteers does a great job of educating all ages about the Okanagan Valley and its true heritage as a desert, not the green valley you see today. This area has captured all that’s left of an amazing desert ecosystem and unfortunately seems to be one of those secrets that needs to be shared more often with locals and tourists alike. While in the Cawston/Keremeos area, we also made a stop to see Rajinder at Sanderson Farms. What an amazing bounty of fruit and vegetables, and just another example of a family owned and operated business that works hard to produce high quality produce. Next we visited The Grist Mill and Gardens in Keremeos, which is a gem that sometimes gets overlooked. Thanks to manager Chris Mathieson it has enjoyed a renewed lease on life in the last couple of years. A number of events have brought people to experience this bit of history and put it “top of mind” for many locals and tourists. I am a fan of this historical site and, like many of you, I will continue to work hard to preserve and protect it into the future. Our last stop was at the Twin Lakes Market and Gas
Station on Hwy 3A. The owners, Ken and Heidi Horncastle, with local family connections, came to take on this small business about 15 years ago and have turned it into a popular stop. A lot of that popularity is due to the “Pie Lady”. People from all over B.C. and Alberta stop to get pies to take home at the end of their vacations. What began as some wonderful baking added to the offerings of the gas station/store became through word of mouth from the locals the ultimate place to get fruit pies. As many as 200 pies are made each week and bought by locals and tourists. Even I have my own “Pie Card” which is for those who frequent the store on a regular basis. These places are just a tiny cross section of the types of small businesses that we sometimes take for granted and that we need to celebrate more often. To view the videos that have been made, visit my website at www. LindaLarsonMLA. ca. September is an incredibly busy time for our farmers. The fields are giving up their last hay crops, there are mountains of squash and tomatoes and our grape growers are working around the clock to bring in another stellar vintage. Give a “hug” to a farmer and be thankful we live in such a beauti-
ful area of B.C. There are too many events to mention them all but I would like to recognize the Town Of Oliver and all the councils and staff who have worked for more than 10 years to bring potable water to all of rural Oliver. Everyone involved should be very proud of this unique system and the cooperation of many levels of government that made this a reality. Thanks also to Roger Hol for the wonderful cancer fundraiser held at the Vine Glass Winery. For Roger, who lost his wife to cancer, this was very personal, but all of us know someone who has been touched by cancer in some way and this event was another way to raise awareness and perhaps help someone else through their own battle with this disease. Finally, October is Community Living Month. This is the month we celebrate the achievements of adults in our communities who have developmental disabilities and thank the service providers and employers who support these individuals with inclusive activities and work environments. I am looking forward to visiting many of these wonderful workplaces and group homes around the province during the month of October.

Cat and backyard chicken bylaws dominate Keremeos council agenda By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com Keremeos Village council received the following letters for information purposes: - a letter from Keremeos residents Ron and Sherry Ditloff requesting a cat control bylaw. - a letter from the Auditor General regarding the release of their annual report. - a letter from Stephanie Cadieux, Minister of Children and Family Development, declaring October Foster Family Month in B.C. Council also received a request from Keremeos Elks for a donation of up to $115 for use of Victory Hall for a youth Halloween event. Staff also brought forward to council a report regarding possible direction council could take with respect to a bylaw controlling cats and backyard chickens. Chief Administrative Officer Laurie Taylor advised council of the difficulties inherent in enforcing a cat control bylaw. She noted backyard chicken coops were becoming increasingly popular in urban areas as people grow more concerned about knowing where their food comes from. Council discussed the matter at length, with council members divided with respect to bylaw legis-

NAVIGATING THE FIRST TWO HOLIDAYS OF THE FALL SEASON By Cathy Lauer
PART I
Gluten-free thanksgiving turkey dinner One of the great joys of the fall season is getting to share and eat the bounty of the garden that you have tended all summer. Family and friends gather and old family recipes are brought to life and shared with great memories. New family members get to experience the traditions and everyone else feels the comfort they bring. How does all this fit with your gluten free diet? Perfectly fine! Even pumpkin pie and turkey dressing can be made delicious as well as gluten free with very little effort. Before my Mom learned to make really nice gluten free pastry she used to make crustless pumpkin pie for my daughters. Make up your favourite pumpkin pie filling and pour it into a buttered glass pie plate. Bake until the center is set. Since you don’t have the calories or fat of the crust feel free to add a big scoop of whipped cream! Turkey dressing is an easy switch to rice or if you know someone who makes good gluten free French bread you could use that for your bread stuffing. Since you can’t have turkey dinner without gravy substitute wheat flour with cornstarch or a gluten free flour mix combined with water and made into a smooth paste. Slowly add it to the boiling, defatted turkey drippings and voila, turkey gravy. The amount of flour or cornstarch used will naturally depend on the amount of drippings you have. We always add the water from cooking the vegetable and potatoes to the gravy too. When our family gets together we go through a lot of gravy! If you are stuck trying to change a family favourite to gluten free you can email me your challenge and I will see what I can do to solve it for you. The second and probably more problematic challenge in October is Halloween. Yes, it is always a panic trying to nail down just exactly what the kids want to dress-up as for Halloween and actually getting them to stick with their choice. Having settled that issue, you now have the challenge of finding treats to hand out that don’t break the bank and that your children can actually eat. When my daughters were little the choices were very few and they didn’t make a big variety of the cute little chocolate bars that they do now. There are also many other candies and gummies now that are gluten free. Back then I made a deal with my daughters. If they turned in all their candy without sneaking any of it I would take them to the toy store and allow them to pick out 1 item of their choice within a certain dollar limit. This was met with great excitement and a lot of time was spent trying to decide whether to get a new Barbie, My Little Pony, Pokémon or one year it was Pogs.

TAKING CARE OF YOUR FEET It’s important to take care of your feet. The human foot consists of 26 bones, 33 joints, many muscles, ligaments and tendons as well as thousands of nerve endings. The type of shoe you choose for your feet is very important. Buy the best shoes you can afford. It’s a myth that you have to “break in” new shoes. A new shoe should feel so good, you’ll want to walk out of the store with them on. FLU SHOTS This is the time of year we start hearing about flu and flu shots. Our immune systems are pretty tough but each winter it gets challenged by the latest flu virus. It’s easy to help our immune systems fight the flu by getting a flu shot each year. While not 100% effective, it certainly reduces the chance of getting the flu. ORIGIN OF BIRTH CONTROL PILL The origin of the birth control pill began with Margaret Sanger. Born in 1879, she was an American nurse, sex educator and birth control activist. In the early 1950s, she asked researcher Dr. Gregory Pincus to develop a birth control pill. With his work and others, it led to the 1957 approval of Enovid, giving women more reliable control over their fertility for the first time in history. BLONDES, BRUNETTES & REDHEADS We’re not sure if blondes really have more fun but they do have more hair. Blondes average about 140,000 hair follicles, brunettes average 108,000 while redheads have about 80,000. By the way, hair grows about 6 inches (15 cm) per year.

Fall flag football Members of Celia Brouwers phys ed class played a game of touch football after a coaching session on football plays on October 9 on the SESS soccer field. At left is Sarah Gray in the background, red shirt, Devin Watts in orange and Money Boparai in green. Below, Kisa Minshull and Riley Carlson square off.
Above, left: Edith Johnson and Pearl Campbell took their big pumpkin to Napa Auto Parts in Keremeos in order to get it weighed last Thursday, October 9. The two ladies grew the 85 pound gourd by burying manure, which forced the pumpkin’s roots to grow down to it. The two growers are displaying the pumpkin at Valu Plus Foods. Photos by Steve Arstad

Hedley Meals On Wheels program
Contributed Lower Similkameen Community Services Society is located in Keremeos but has a mandate to serve Hedley residents. They can help with rides to medical appointments and meals on wheels and have a toll-free number for Hedley residents to call: 1-855- 499-2352. Hedley needs to register volunteer drivers to make the driver’s program run smoothly.The LSCSS will also work with the Hedley to solve the problems unique to Hedley. A group of concerned community members invited representative of the LSCSS to Hedley after a few discussions at the senior’s center during the summer time when it was identified that we may not need to “reinvent the wheel” and there may be ways for us to access existing services. Lower Similkameen Community Services offers affordable, nutritious and large portioned “meals on wheels” for the elderly, disabled and recently released from hospital patients who are unable to cook for themselves. This service is available for Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays for $5 a meal. These servings would last the average senior two or three days and include salads, soups, an entrée and a dessert. Lower Similkameen Community Services Society is located near the Keremeos Medical Center at: 310 Veterans Avenue, Keremeos, BC,V0X 1N3. Phone: 250 499 2352 or 1 855 499 2352 Email: admin@lscss.com Web: http://ttpwebhost.com/lscss/contactus.html A typical “Meals on Wheels” delivery includes enough food for at least two days at a cost of $5. Volunteer drivers must be coordinated to bring to Hedley.

UNDERSTANDING ATTIC INSULATION Insulation is one of the best investments a homeowner can make, but too often people overlook insulation in favor of more eye-catching renovations. Insulation is not something to be ignored, as it contributes to year-round comfort in the home while reducing energy costs along the way. According to the Energy Star program, you should add more insulation if the existing insulation is just level with or below the floor joists of your attic. If you cannot see any of the floor joists because the insulation is well above them, you probably have enough and adding more may not be cost-effective. In addition, check to see if the insulation is an even thickness across the entire attic. Sometimes it can be thicker in the middle and then peter out toward the eaves. Attic insulation is measured according to its R-Value, which measures the insulation’s ability to resist heat flow. The higher the R-Value, the better the thermal performance of the insulation. In many climates, the recommended level for homes is R-38. If you prefer more insulation, increase the R-Value. Insulation is made from different materials, including fiberglass, cellulose and rock wool. It comes in different forms. Rolls and batts are some of the more commonly used types of insulation. Loose-fill insulation is a loose insulation with no backing that is usually blown into a space. Rigid foam and foam-in-place insulation are additional types of insulation. The type of insulation used depends on where the insulation is needed and your budget. Certain materials are not applicable for particular uses, and typically insulation that provides a higher R-Value tends to be more expensive. Examine the cost-effectiveness of the type of insulation being considered before application. You also can mix and match insulations depending on the application. The U.S. Department of Energy offers these additional tips with regard to insulation. * Consider factors such as your climate, home design and budget when selecting insulation for your home. * Use higher R-Value insulation, such as spray foam, on exterior walls and in cathedral ceilings to get more insulation with less thickness. * Install attic air barriers, such as wind baffles, along the entire attic eave to help ensure proper airflow from the soffit to the attic. Ventilation helps with moisture control and reduces summer cooling bills, but don’t ventilate your attic if you have insulation on the underside of the roof. Ask a qualified contractor for recommendations. * Be careful how close you place insulation next to a recessed light fixture -- unless it is insulation contact (IC) rated -- to avoid a fire hazard. * Follow the manufacturer’s installation instructions, and wear the proper protective gear when installing insulation. In addition to making a home more comfortable, insulation also can buffer noise, making the home more peaceful. Insulation can reduce noises from outside the home as well as absorb sounds from inside.

Volunteers feeling the strain as foreign worker program grows By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview. com A trio of South Similkameen women that have been working for several years to provide support and language training to temporary foreign agricultural workers are discouraged by the lack of support available to them. Sandy Diaz, Susan Chapple and Sandi Nolan have been hosting English language lessons for members of the migrant farmworker community in the Lower Similkameen for
six years. Headed by Diaz, who is Chilean born and speaks fluent Spanish and English, the group has also provided many other services to farmworkers including services their agricultural employers are supposed to but don’t always do. “We organize soccer games and dinners for the workers,” said Diaz, who promotes these events to provide the workers with gathering places where they can mix and socialize. The women also help workers with their taxes, explain
government forms and spend countless hours assisting them with problems they experience with their Canadian cell phones. “There is so much time and work involved,” Diaz said, noting the group is finding the amount of work continually increasing. After the workers return to Mexico, they often still have unfinished business to conduct, and the three are the only ones they have to turn to. As the program continues to grow, more and more farmworkers are
counting on these women to assist them, often for things the workers employer’s are responsible for. “We are often asked to provide transportation to larger centres for shopping,” Chapple said, when the farmer is unable or unwilling to do so. Diaz noted that many other people in the community also assist the farmworkers, including Pastor Wiebe of the Elim Tabernacle, who donates the church basement for classes religious service’s in Spanish, Pastor
Don Bodden, who recently organized a pig roast for the workers and Tom Wilson who has allowed them to use his property on many occasions for dinners. The three women host English language classes on an informal basis, run out of the Fairview Irrigation District office, and the Elim Tabernacle. They have been successful in attracting members of the migrant community, starting classes after 7 p.m., when the workers have finished their work day. “The language
barrier is a huge thing,” said Diaz, who noted that workers sometimes got turned away from their medical appointments because they arrived with no one to interpret for them. As the program grows, and increasing numbers of workers seek out their assistance, the three women are finding themselves increasingly frustrated by the lack of support from private or public sources available to them. They are finding themselves constantly challenged to find the
time and financial resources to provide the services they see are desperately needed. They are considering what options might be available to them, including the idea of forming a society in order to attract funding. “Right now, we are on our own,” said Diaz “We aren’t associated with a charity or society - we are doing this because we care, and these workers need this help. But more and more, we’re finding we can’t do this on our own.”
