Council boosts funds for festival

Roots and Blues: Taxpayers’ contribution to event will be $95,000 for 2015. By Martha Wickett

markEt nEws staff

The Salmon Arm Folk Music Society has had two wishes granted. City council decided Monday to provide an additional $50,000 to the Roots and Blues Festival in the city’s revised budget to help assist with an operating shortfall for the 2015 festival. Council also gave initial approvals necessary to allow the society to move its headquarters. At Monday’s council meeting, Coun. Alan Harrison explained why

he approved the financial contribution, which council OK’d unanimously. “From my seat, the reason we’ve supported it is because we value that festival, we want it to continue to happen. I think it’s good for the city and we want to do our part. “I think there will be benefits to the citizens of Salmon Arm,” he said, adding, “We don’t plan to offer $50,000 every year, but we will this year. I know members of the board are working very hard to make the festival sustainable and we’re onside.”

He said the money is available because the city has had a very good year for building revenue – about $50,000 more than was projected. The folk music society will be receiving $95,000 for the festival in the city’s 2015 budget: $45,000 as a specific referral that was approved earlier and the $50,000 approved Monday. It was noted that a study by Thompson Rivers University showed the festival generates $4.5 to $5 million for the community. The society also came to council to request support for a rezoning.

The change in zoning would allow the society to move its offices up the road from the log building on Fifth Avenue SW to a city-owned property with a single-family home at the corner of Fifth Avenue and Third Street SW. On Monday, Salmon Arm council voted unanimously to give first two readings to rezone the R-1 residential lot at 541 Third St. SW to P-3, institutional. Amendments to the P-3 zone included adding careSee Residential on page 2

Residential home proposed for office taker suite as a permitted use, along with limited, screened outside storage. A public hearing and potential third reading is scheduled for Nov. 10. At the city’s Oct. 20 planning meeting, Bernd Hermanski, a folk music society director, told council members that the society’s board has been trying to get access to the property for about six years. “It’s so well-located to the festival site, it’s always looked appealing to us.” He said the rent on the log building has been climbing and is going up to $1,600/ month. With the festival currently in a tough financial situation after

For the record A story in last week’s Shuswap Market News, “Plans proceed for Blind Bay Resort,” contained two errors. A decision to give the resort third reading, with conditions, was approved in a four-two decision, not three-two as printed. Also, when Area C director Paul Demenok made an estimate of 70 to 75 per cent support, he was referring to the total Blind Bay population, not the percentage of support garnered at the August public hearing, as was reported. The Market News regrets the error.

a loss this year, having an asset like the property at the other corner of the fairgrounds “would give us some control over costs.” The society rents from the Salmon Arm and Shuswap Lake Agricultural Association, which puts on the annual fall fair. Hermanski said the society would start using the proposed building as office space, but would also like to have a caretaker suite where the artistic director, Peter North, could stay when he comes to Salmon Arm from his current home in Edmonton. He said North comes here once a month for the board meeting and then, immediately before the festival, would Alcoholics Anonymous www.bcyukonaa.org

stay about a month. A bedroom and kitchenette would be useful. “Would it become a full-time residence? It might, it could, but we don’t know,” explained Hermanski. He also said some outside storage at the new site would make sense. Regarding timing, he said the board would like to make the move before next summer’s festival but he’s not sure if it would be possible. “Our first goal is to put on the festival and

we hope to have a better year next year.” Although a tenant now resides in the house, city staff said they have been given notice and will be out by Jan. 1, 2015. Kentel said she expects the agricultural association won’t be pleased. “We’ll hear from the fall fair regarding this…” Hermanski offered his acknowledgement. “It certainly will be a loss to them. We’re hoping someone else might want to rent.”

City initiates alternative approval process MARKET NEWS STAFF

The city plans to borrow $500,000 to make improvements to Blackburn Park that will offer amenities for all ages. “The long-term borrowing has something for everyone in it,” remarked Coun. Chad Eliason, as council discussed the plan Monday. Included in the halfmillion dollar price tag is $352,000 for redevelopment of soccer field #2; $217,0000 for construction of phase one of the Life Trail System circling the

n Citizens gather at the cenotaph on Saturday, Oct. 25 to honour Cpl. Nathan Cirillo and Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent. More than 50 people gathered under sombre skies, raising their voices in the singing of the national anthem and bowing their heads in a moment of silence for the two recently slain members of the Canadian Armed Forces. Royal Canadian Legion Branch #62 President Henry Butters was pleased with the turnout, particularly in view of the short notice for the impromptu ceremony. Organized as part of a national effort by veterans, Canadians from around the country gathered at their cenotaphs in a show of support and respect.

park; $50,000 for construction of a recreation shelter; and $10,000 for borrowing costs, all offset partially by donations from the city’s Rotary clubs and Telus. “What we are getting is important for the community,” Eliason said, noting the tax increase for the debenture debt will be minimal. The public will have an opportunity to have a say on the long-term borrowing through the alternative approval process. In order to prevent the borrowing, 10 per cent of electors, or 1,336, must sign a petition op-

posing the borrowing. Chief administrative officer Carl Bannister said the deadline for electoral response forms is Monday, Feb. 23 – longer than the usual time allowed. He said that’s because the ministry required to approve the bylaw is four to six weeks behind because of the provincial election. The extension will also make up for the Christmas break.

MP describes Ottawa shooting

FrOM the hill Colin Mayes October 22, 2014: My Wednesday routine started with my arrival at my Parliament Hill office at 6:30 a.m. and then off to the midweek Parliamentary Hill Prayer Breakfast at 7:15, followed by an 8:15 B.C. Caucus meeting, then off to National Caucus at 9:30. After we finished the usual robust singing of “O Canada,” our caucus settled to be briefed by our House Leader. Soon after the House Leader, the Prime Minister began his review of domestic and international events. Just into his presentation there was a large bang, then another. The sounds were just coming from the other side of the wall and I was within six feet of the back of the room. Not until the second and third bang did we all stand up. MPs’ first response was to get the Prime Minister out, and then our next reaction was to head for an exit, but not knowing what was in the hall on the other side of the door

I stopped and thought, no, what I needed to do was find a way out of here. I looked at a window about seven feet up. It had a ledge. I contemplated breaking the window and exiting. I heard people saying “get in the caucus room; we are going to lock the doors.” Unsure of my fate, I decided I would face the unknown with my colleagues rather than abandon them and be an only survivor. In the room MPs, who were previously with the police or Canadian Forces, were organizing the room. They shouted, “Stay away from the doors – barricade the doors!” Some of my colleagues took the small flag poles from the podium to use as weapons. The members with the poles bravely guarded the doors. The rapid fire sounded like an automatic weapon, (later we found out what we heard were guns being fired by the police officers). Then everything was silent. We were overcome with the thought that the assailant(s) had automatic weapons and had killed those that were protecting us. We expected the doors to be tested by a barrage of bullets. I prayed for the Prime Minister, my wife and my family. I actually was surprised as to how calm the room was. I was ready to die and frankly, I thought that was going

to be the outcome. The silence seemed to last forever, but soon after the shots ended there was a bang against the hall door. We all gave a sigh of relief when we heard a voice say, “It’s the RCMP.” The Prime Minister was ushered out but caucus and staff were left in the room during a lockdown for nine hours. I have to confess that being in one room for that length of time with my colleagues gave us plenty of time to talk. I believe this time together was good therapy for us. My reflections after this event might seem strange, but I recapped

my minutes of anxiety and fear and then my thoughts turned to my father who served with the Canadian Scottish Regiment in the liberation of Holland during WWII. He endured this anxiety and fear for months, for the cause of freedom. My thoughts and prayers are with the families and friends of Corporal Nathan Cirillo and Warrant Officer Vincent. I was ready to fight as were my brave colleagues in the room, but my appreciation for those that have protected us in the past and today is cherished even to a greater extent by this MP after the event of October 22, 2014. “Lest We Forget.”

Eating crow over this Sunday’s time change A MATTER OF OPINION Tracy Hughes Reason #238 why I think we should dispense with Daylight Savings Time: Because of the probable chance that you will manage to reprint it incorrectly in the newspaper and suffer great personal humiliation. Yes, last week we made a pretty stunning blunder in Friday’s edition of the Shuswap Market News. At already nearly two hours after deadline and with the press breathing down our necks, a short-staffed newsroom attempted to get the paper finished. And in the final throes, someone asked about whether we got the information about the time change into the paper. Knowing that I hadn’t got that item in, I assumed this to mean the clocks needed to be changed on Oct. 26 and managed to put an alert to this with a little clock photo in the index box on the front

page. And off the paper went, zooming across cyberspace to be printed in Vernon. It wasn’t until the thousands of papers arrived ready to be delivered on Thursday that another staff member pointed out the mistake. So I did what any self-respecting editor would do. I went in my office, closed the door and repeatedly banged my head on the desk. Because at that point, there’s really not much else you can do. It’s the beauty and curse of printed newspapers – they last. It makes me long for my brief days in radio, when, if you made a blunder like that, it’s instantly over, and can be rapidly corrected. You can’t pocket radio waves and carry them in your wallet, like the printed newspaper page, which is a solid, tangible reminder of your mistakes. And now there’s my mistake on approximately 16,000 pages spread throughout the Shuswap. It’s humbling. People like to grouse about the media getting it wrong. And they are correct. Sometimes we do get it wrong. Newspapers are created by people and, as we all know, people are fallible. Another wise ed-

itor once noted there’s nothing like an error to let you know that someone is reading. So we took to our website, Facebook and Twitter and ate crow in an effort to ensure that people would not change their clocks and end up an hour early for everything. If you got caught by our error, my deepest apologies. This does segue into my abiding distaste for the time change generally. It’s really the only reason I would consider a move to Saskatchewan, where common sense prevails and they do not change the clocks back and forth twice a year. Humour columnist Dave Berry is one of my writing heroes, in part because of this very quote: “You will never find anybody who can give you a clear and compelling reason why we observe Daylight Saving Time.” Much like my error, I can’t do anything about the current time system, except to now inform you that you should indeed turn your clock back one hour on this Sunday, Nov. 2. Trust me, I won’t forget this year. And, as always, thanks for reading.

Take precautions on Halloween

This year, the annual celebration of Halloween will collide with the beginning of the weekend, on Friday night. Weekends and Halloween can be a potent mix sometimes, as the activities of young trick-or-treaters collide with those of adults who want to celebrate the end of a work week, and in the case of Halloween, often use it as an occasion for a party. Many children of course love the experience of dressing up and going door-to-door, and there are plenty of ways for them to stay safe. Parents should accompany them, and wearing some type of reflective clothing and carrying flashlights is very helpful as well. While trick or treating usually doesn’t go on too late, drivers need to be very careful on Friday night. The weather has not been particularly great and it will be very dark, no matter what weather conditions are. Taking some extra precautions will be a good idea. As fireworks are not being sold in most areas as part of Halloween any longer, there are fewer issues involving their misuse. Nonetheless, there are always a few individuals who manage to get their hands on some fireworks, so caution is encouraged — both for those who set off fireworks, and for those who are in the vicinity. Police and fire department personnel usually expect a busy Halloween and are likely to be out in force, so those contemplating illegal activities might wish to keep that in mind. Thinking ahead about how to enjoy Halloween in a safe and responsible way is a good way to ensure that all goes well. It can be a fun evening, but at the same time, it is good to take precautions, given some of the things that inevitably happen that evening — and the fall weather and darkness. -Langley Times

OPINION

Fly tying doesn’t have to cost a lot Even though November is still a few days away, it already feels like November. It has for a couple of weeks now. The sky has been that dismal November grey that I’ve come to deplore, the nights are getting colder with each passing day, my bones ache and fishing seems both equally a part of the past and a long way off at the same time. November is but a harbinger of winter yet to come and I can’t really say that I am looking forward to the coming of winter. Like everyone else who is not able to fly south, I guess I’ll just have to accept its inevitability – though I do so begrudgingly. On the other hand, I suppose there are any number of things I might consider doing that might, in the words of Bob Dylan “make the time more easily passing.” Maybe I could take up fly tying again. Other than showing kids at summer camps how to tie, I haven’t tied flies for myself in a

THE GREAT OUTDOORS James Murray good 15 years. There was no need when you consider how many good fly tiers there are around. They don’t come much better than Bill Keown over at Westside Stores. I first learned to tie flies back when I was about 10 years old or so by trial and error – mostly error. The only guide I ever had was reading articles about fly tying in old copies of my father’s Field and Stream magazines. As a kid growing up on the Prairies, there weren’t a lot of sources of instruction, or information for that matter, when it came to learning how to tie flies. Talk about long, bleak winters there. Be that as it

may, over the past 55 years, I have learned to tie a few patterns fairly well, which, when it comes right down to it, is all you really need to know. The trick is to then learn how to fish those patterns equally as well. I’m still working on that part. It doesn’t really take much to get started in fly tying. A few basic materials such as some feathers, fur, tinsel and yarn, a vice, a bobbin (the thing-a-majig that holds your tying thread while you tie the materials on to the hook) and, of course, a selection of hooks in a variety of sizes. You would be amazed at all the fly tying materials you can acquire at garage sales. I remember once buying an old fur coat just so that I could scrape the fur off it to make dubbing. At the right time of year you can find pheasant feathers on the ground. During hunting season, if you happen to know a hunter or two, you can usually mooch a few scraps of deer and/or elk fur that will likely do you all the way through to next hunt-

ing season. The only thing that can, however, cost a lot of money is a good cape of hackle feathers. They can run a $100 and up. You can, sometimes, buy half-capes and of course there are less expensive, lesser quality capes that are good enough for guys like me. I suppose if you add up the cost of all the materials one can accumulate over a period of time, that too can add up – but we won’t go there. My point is fly tying does not have to cost a lot of money – just an investment of time well spent. There are also usually a number of fly tying classes that are offered – often over the winter months. There is also a lot of information on fly tying available on the Internet. Most fly tiers that I know derive a certain sense of satisfaction from creating an imitation fly pattern out of a few bits of feather and fur, but for me, the real sense of satisfaction has always come from catching a fish on a fly that I had tied myself.

VIEW POINT

Mayes’ column spreads misinformation As a retired educator with a graduate degree and considerable background in natural sciences, I am appalled at the contents of the article by our MP Colin Mayes. It is clear he is peddling the ‘party line’ in his comments regarding climate change. What bothers me most is that he is in a position of influence and responsibility, but his information is nonsense. Maybe I am over-estimating his public regard, but I still feel the need to offer a rebuttal, because this is

a serious issue which will affect us all. Canada is NOT the only G7 country to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Germany, France and the UK all have reductions, some going back as far as 30 years. His statement is a blatant misrepresentation intended to cast a false positive light on the Harper government’s record. Causes of climate change have been studied to death, and the global consensus is that fossil fuel combustion is the primary culprit. There is no

need to wait for Government of Canada scientists to discover otherwise, and are they different somehow from other scientists? Ya, muzzled. Saying that the polar ice cap has increased 40 percent over the last two years is an intentional distortion of the truth, which is that the 50-year-record is increasing open water during summer melt to the point where the Arctic Ocean will become a major shipping route to Asia in short order. Stating unequivo-

cally that ocean levels have not risen is pure bunk. I guess that is why Miami is spending millions on its sea walls to hold back flooding that is impacting normal life there, not to mention the thousands of climate change refugees already being relocated. Please Mr. Mayes, get your facts straight, not from the oil lobby. People want the truth from their elected officials. William Lytle-McGhee

‘Global warmers’ don’t speak for everyone It seems to me some of these (ill-informed) global warmers actually believe they are speaking for the electorate. Obviously, the concept of democracy has escaped them. Jim Wright does not speak for me or any of the other voters who elected Colin Mayes. Furthermore, his incident examples have nothing to do with Mr Mayes statement regarding “best laws” in Canada, when he then goes on to reference

three US events. The Canadian reference to Lac-Mégantic was a “rail” problem; which begs the question: Do you prefer rail or pipeline in Canada? And, which one has the best record of delivering your oil, gas and lubricants to British Columbia? Maybe Mr Wright does not use these products and maybe he does not care about the (globally best-managed) economy in Canada. Or maybe he just doesn’t understand real

economics because he’s been brainwashed by the hundreds of “studies” done by hypothetical science – which has to keep changing the story of global warming in order to justify their “studies” and paycheques. The reference to “the earth is round” actually reveals the fact that Mr Wright does not really know anything of the beliefs, knowledge or background of Mr Mayes. The statement that the earth “IS heat-

Sick of being gouged at the pump Check the gasoline prices - Abbotsford 1.089/L, Salmon Arm 1.299. Folks – that’s a difference of 21 cents per litre or an increase of 19.2 per cent. No-

Vernon mayor takes aim at Mayes for comments about homeless people By Richard Rolke BLACK PRESS

A war of words has erupted between Vernon’s mayor and the local MP. Rob Sawatzky used Monday’s city council meeting to blast Okanagan-Shuswap MP Colin Mayes over comments he made at an unveiling of a homeless memorial in Polson Park.

“For Mr. Mayes to state that this was not a government issue is, at best, disturbing, said Sawatzky, adding that homelessness does fall under Ottawa’s responsibilities. “It is clearly a government issue. A reason we have the issue is precisely because of senior government policy.” Sawatzky went on to accuse Mayes of

abdicating his responsibilities and local government suffers the consequences from not having the appropriate resources to act. “His salary is paid by our public and if he truly believes that government has no role, then it might be appropriate for him to resign his position,” said Sawatzky. Mayes insists his remarks at the memorial

unveiling are being misinterpreted. “My comment was it’s not government’s fault there is homelessness. They (homeless) have come into homeless issues because of disabilities or addictions,” he said, adding that the federal government has invested in programs that assist the homeless. “Providing housing

for every homeless person is not the solution to the reason they are homeless or why those we were remembering passed away. I further said that this is a community issue. We must reach out as citizens to the homeless and help them deal with their addictions and illness. This was an event to remember those that had succumbed to their ill-

ness, not a time to criticize government for not giving enough money to fix the problem. Money is not the solution to this issue.” Mayes also says that he never publicly criticized an MLA or MP when he was Salmon Arm mayor. “For Mayor Sawatzky to say that is inappropriate without speaking to me to discuss the is-

sue,” he said. Coun. Mary-Jo O’Keefe was also at the ceremony and has concerns about Mayes’ comments. “It was an ill-advised statement but the federal government has spent $62 million this year on homelessness,” she said. “His comments were not well-thoughtout because everyone is dealing with the issue.”

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

✔ ELECTION ❑ CSRD Area C Candidate

Paul Demenok

RD CS C EA AR DATES I ND A C

There are two high-priority projects in Area C, Blind Bay/ Sorrento sewers and drinking water treatment for Sunnybrae Estates. Groundwater monitoring in 2013 in Sorrento/Blind Bay reported bacteria above Canadian standards in 13 of 17 sites, negatively affecting lake water quality. Lack of sewers slows economic development and depresses real estate prices. For homeowners replacing old septic systems, community sewers could provide significant cost savings. Upgrading of mal-performing and poorly designed septic systems will help protect our source of drinking water. Upgrading water treatment in Sunnybrae would eliminate the long-standing boil water advisory.

CSRD Area C Candidate

This is easy. Better services for Area C. We have a larger population than Chase or Grand Forks for that matter and approximately one-half the population of Salmon Arm, yet we have not one major recreational centre or medical facility. All of us have to travel to Salmon Arm, some of us more than once a day. It is a costly, time-consuming and sometimes dangerous commute that needs to change. Parents and caregivers deserve a break.

Is a sewer system needed and affordable for Area C? A pamphlet prepared by the CSRD states if every household maintained and pumped out their system on a regular basis, a sewer system would not be needed. Even with government funding, amortized over 20 years, the cost is considerable. The typical annual cost per household would be approximately $1,000, plus the initial service connection fee of $5,000. Many new homes have state-of-the-art systems that actually operate better than a sewer system. Education and proper septic maintenance will aid and protect your investment, human health and the environment.

Alan McClelland

CSRD Area D Candidate

Given there are many important issues facing the constituents of Area D, initially I would like to build a communications network throughout our mainly rural electoral boundary in order to establish a consultative framework. It`s important for the people in our insulated communities to be heard, and to know what’s happening in other parts of Area D. Then we may come together as a represented district to discuss important issues such as potential school closures, or the proposed CSRD building permit plans. Acknowledging the diversity within our communities in combination with our shared concerns can build strong cohesive outcomes.

The Gardom Lake Management Plan. In May the board approved $40,000 from the community works fund. The provincial response was no financial contribution. In October, the board approved entering into an agreement with the Fraser Basin Council in the amount of $ 34,640 plus taxes. Now we can move forward on developing the Gardom Lake Plan.

CSRD Area E Candidate

Area E faces many challenges. My priority will be to establish a community forest for our area. It is my belief this sector has been marginalized to the point of being almost insignificant. The primary purpose would be to enable us to gain input into our forest management. It would also allow us to locally retain some of the economic benefits that are derived from our forests. Presently most of the economic benefits leave our area. Not withstanding it would also provide for more employment, higher wages and increase our standard of living. I will work tirelessly to accomplish this.

My constituents bring me their important issues and while working on them I am also focused on the following priorities: the safety of my constituents at Swansea Point; the abandoned rail line from Sicamous to Grindrod and the impact this as well as development may have on Westside of Mara; supporting agriculture in the Cambie Solsqua community; efforts at trying to change the forest policy to allow for more community forests resulting in economic development; the Shuswap watershed, vital to economic and environmental health; improved health services to allow people to stay at home, provide jobs.

College offers free truck driver course

Columbia Shuswap Regional District

In the provincial government’s Labour Market Outlook 2022, transport truck drivers were identified as number two in the top 10 most-needed professions. It’s estimated that the province will need a whopping 18,000 drivers by 2022. To that end, Okanagan College joined forces seven years ago with Taylor Pro Training, a leader in truck driver training, to offer Class 1 Driver Training. This experiential, full-time program covers the broad range of hands-on skills necessary to find employment as a transport truck driver and can be completed in just six weeks. What’s more, the provincial government, realizing this looming shortage, has provided full funding for the program to eligible applicants through the Canada-British Columbia Job Fund. Of the 32 students who participated last year in the tuitionfree program, 29 found employment in the trucking industry. To be eligible for the funding, applicants must be unemployed, legally entitled to work in Canada, a resident of B.C., not currently receiving employment insurance or have not received it in the last three years, not enrolled in high school or another post-secondary training program, and not participating in another government-funded program. The Class 1 Driver Training program has new intakes across the Okanagan, including Revelstoke on Oct. 27, Salmon Arm on Nov. 3, Vernon on Dec. 15, and Penticton on Jan. 19, 2015. To find out more about the program and eligibility for funding, contact Shawna Klempner at 250-762-5445, ext. 4479, or toll-free at 1-877-755-2266, ext. 4479.

Robert Babakaiff of Arro Wood Heat Services has been in business for 6 years. A 45+ year resident of Salmon Arm, he believes in buying his products locally. After being laid off from Coe/Newnes, he saw there was a need for a reliable wood heat technician. He became certified in the WETT program – which is a Canadian recognized association, allowing him to be able to inspect, install and maintain wood burning stoves and fireplaces. His services include chimney sweeping, estimates and advice on purchasing and installation of wood burning stoves, such as size needed for the square footage, and the best stove to meet your needs. Robert’s motto “Burning Clean = More Green” not only refers to the money saved when keeping your stove or fireplace maintained, it also refers to the environment, as the new stoves burn cleaner and more efficiently. Repeat customers are spreading the word of his fair pricing and thorough job. For all your wood heat needs, call Robert today for an estimate.

Concert takes chill out of fall By Barb Brouwer

MArKet neWS StAff

Trade the chill of November with the convivial warmth of great music when Valdy and Gary Fjellgaard pay their annual visit to Carlin Hall on Thursday, Nov. 6, with special guests Blu and Kelly Hopkins. Valdy and Fjellgaard will also appear at The Red Barn in Sicamous at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 4. Tickets are available at the IDA Pharmacy. Troubadours all, the evening is an opportunity to hear about Canada and her people. Born Valdemar Horsdal in Ottawa, Valdy is a singer, guitarist and songwriter, who successfully captures the small but often extraordinary moments in life. His Play Me a Rock and Roll Song was a hit in the late ’60s and continues to draw wild applause. And so, for

Valdy will also perform a song he has written about Stompin’ Tom Connors, called Oh Tom, We Miss you. One of the country’s foremost songwriters Valdy’s popular CDs include Contenders, a delicious collaboration with friend and fellow singer/songwriter, Gary Fjellgaard with whom he has “an absolute blast” touring. A young 69 as of

Sept. 1, Valdy marvels at the 76-year-old Fjellgaard’s energy and enthusiasm and their ability to collaborate based on friendship and respect. “It’s also a chance to play a lot of instruments together,” he says. “We never do the same set twice so it’s fresh for us, therefore fun for us, therefore it’s fun for the audience.” Valdy calls Carlin Hall a beautiful place with a good vibe and a

venue he and Fjellgaard look forward to playing every year. “It’s a chance to strut our stuff, not in an arrogant way, but as entertainers,” he says. “I like to keep a touch of enlightenment; if something comes across my bow that could be applicable to someone’s life, or I think is an important item to get out, I will put it in a song.” Also crafting their lives in song, Blu and Kelly Hopkins are close to releasing a new CD called HomeFires – one they hope to have avail-

Bring men’s health to the forefront this Movember (NC) It’s no secret that men are more reserved when it comes to talking about their health. According to research conducted on behalf of the Movember Foundation, 50% of Mo Bros and Mo Sistas said they told someone to take action to improve their health in 2013. The Movember Foundation’s vision is to have an everlasting impact on the face of men’s health. This finding is a great start, but there is still work to be done. This Movember (the month formerly known as November), you can help by

bringing your Mo Bros and Mo Sistas together and focus on bringing men’s health to the forefront of conversations. One easy way to break the ice is to bring a group of friends together for discussions over a pint of Rickard’s beer.

What people might not realize is that pain can be a sign of something more, and something that shouldn’t be ignored. Arthritis affects one in six Canadian adults, and it can start earlier than you’d think. In fact, 56 per cent of Canadians with arthritis are under age 65. Osteoarthritis is the most common type and it occurs when natural “wear and tear” causes our bones to rub against each other, leading to pain, inflammation, and stiff-

Lighting the way

DAYS ONLY

Install a programmable timer to limit the amount of time your lights are in use. There are as many different types of lighting are as there are spots in your home that require just the right kind of light. Whether you want a specially coloured bulb for your backyard deck, or a living room lamp that casts a cozy glow, it is possible to find an energy-efficient light for all your needs. Light fixtures that give a maximum amount of light are ideal in order to avoid multiple light sources in a room. If you want to add a lampshade, then opt for a light-coloured model so as not to darken the effect. Bulbs that produce the most lumens (a measure of light), such as compact fluorescent light bulbs, are more energy efficient and are ideal for lights that remain on for long periods of time. In turn, dimmers let you play with the intensity of your lights so you can extend the life of the bulb while reducing energy

consumption. And rather than leaving a light on all night, opt for a programmable timer — just like magic, the light pops on at exactly the right moment. You should also think about making the most of natural lighting. After all, it’s great for morale and it doesn’t cost you a cent. Some brilliant tips A small amount of effort can help you maximize your chances of trimming down your electricity bill. • Turn off unnecessary lights and electrical appliances in standby mode. • Clean your light fixtures regularly to prevent dust and dirt from reducing light intensity. • Switch to motion detector lights where possible. They are more economical than leaving a light on all the time.

Anglemont firehall goes green By Barb Brouwer

MARKET NEWS STAFF

The Anglemont Firehall is getting an energy-efficient upgrade. Columbia Shuswap Regional District directors agreed unanimously to spend up to $10,000 from the Electoral Area F North Shuswap Community Works Fund at the Oct. 16 board meeting in Salmon Arm. CSRD’s commu-

nity works team leader Ryan Nitchie told directors the current lighting system is obsolete and replacement bulbs are difficult to obtain. “Replacement with energy efficient lighting has been shown to reduce ongoing electrical costs and the return on investment is approximately five years,” said Nitchie in his report to the board. Nitchie pointed out that an on-demand hot

water system does not produce the same associated standby energy losses that a storage type water heater generates. “Due to the infrequent use of hot water

in the firehall, converting to an on-demand system will consume far less energy, as a tankless hot water system heats and provides hot water only as required.”

Heat shelve nine to injury

THOMPSON-NICOLA REGIONAL DISTRICT

2014 GENERAL LOCAL ELECTIONS

By Scott Koch

NOTICE OF ELECTION

CONTRIBUTOR

For those readers who remember the hit TV show MASH, the Chase junior hockey team was all that this past weekend, except there was no humour. Friday night, Oct. 24 at Art Holding Memorial Arena saw the Heat hosting the Spokane Braves. The first period ended with no scoring. In the second, Kaleb Boyle scored, assisted by Trevor Okino, and that was it for the home side as the Braves went on to score five straight goals to claim a 5-1 win. Sadly enough, goalie Michael Byer took a deep cut to the calf and had to leave the game at the end of the second. Young associate player Jacob Holland was called into action to fill the breach. Chase is now without both regular goalies due to serious injuries. Sunday the 26th saw the Heat in Sicamous

n Spokane Braves #25 Kurtis Redding redirects the puck, trying to tip it past Chase Heat goalie Michael Byer. The Braves’ Tanner Stolz screens and then jumps out of the way as the Heat’s #7 Trevor Okino pushes him, giving Byer a chance to make the save. With only a few seconds left in the second period, Stolz would again screen Byer, jumping and landing on his right leg and cutting it, sending Byer to hospital from the injury. for a matinee game. The Heat were backstopped by a loaned associate player of the Kamloops Storm, Spencer Eschyschyn. Kolten Moore got the lone goal for Chase in the middle of the first from Pat Brady and Connor Venne. The Eagles scored seven times for a 7-1 win. The Heat

lost two more players to injury in this one, putting nine players in the stands due to injury. Several others remained on the ice, hurt, in an effort to stop the bleeding, to no avail. This tough spell is character-building time as those who do, will, and those who don’t will find their way to an

exit sign. The veterans will be called upon to lead the rookies out of this spell of trouble. Next up at home are the Sicamous Eagles on Saturday, Nov. 1. This is the fans’ last opportunity to donate to breast cancer research and to bid on a commemorative game-worn pink jersey.

2014 Municipal

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

✔ ELECTION ❑

The Shuswap Market News is giving candidates an opportunity to answer one question per week in the run up to the Nov. 15 municipal election.

What motivated you to run for municipal office?

Chase Councillor Candidate

I decided to run for office three years ago as I was retired and had good leadership skills to offer. I have the attributes of a team player and the willingness to get involved for the betterment of the communtiy. I felt that what I would be bringing to the table was an open mind, logical thinking, a sense of fairness and a willingness to work, but most importantly to remember that my duty was to represent all of the people to the best of my abilities. I am hoping that the people of Chase believe I have lived up to that and will return me to office for a second term.

“We need fresh eyes for a fresh start to give Chase a jump start to change.” “Chase needs someone who has ideas to improve tourism.” “Our local government needs to be fiscally responsible.” “We need our emergency medical services back to acceptable levels.” “Why don’t we have a pool?” These are some of the statements I heard as I spoke to business owners and citizens. I’m not afraid to voice concerns and opinions, and I’m ready to lobby government to get the job done. My motivation is selfish; I want Chase, the most beautiful town I have lived in, to thrive and grow.

The future of our village is my motivation. I just retired from the provincial government after 33 years, in March 2014, and believe that I have learned the practical skills to work for our village as councillor in an ethical, open and unbiased way. I want our village to excel as a premiere place for investment, activity and safe, comfortable living. I want to help ensure that we become financially sound and that the village is ready to face the future years knowing that we are secure enough to develop the necessary infrastructure to meet the demand.

Rod Crowe

Val Donnelly

Nancy Egely

Chase Councillor Candidate

What motivates me are all the awesome people in Chase. One example of this is Chase Country Christmas, all the work and planning. When the parade gets to the community hall I look ahead and see the streets packed with parents with their children, I go, ‘this is what it is all about.’ Many people working together for a common cause. I would also like to see the Village of Chase, Tourism Plan implemented. Tourism is the number one employer in B.C.

Over the years I have been critical of many of the decisions of council, as well as critical of some of the decisions that were not made. I thought that if I could take the luxury of being critical, I should also be willing to put my money where my mouth is and make use of my experience and training to try and effect positive change in Chase.

I have had the opportunity to become actively involved with numerous community groups and events in Chase and it is because of my love for volunteering and this community that I have decided to run for council. I feel that having a seat on council allows me to give back to our community and commit my time and energy on the growth and longevity of Chase. I believe that my creativity, enthusiasm, “gogetter” attitude and friendly approach would be a welcome addition to our community and I am excited and ready for the challenge!

David Lepsoe

Carman Lynch

Ali Maki

Chase Councillor Candidate

I am civic minded and I feel strongly that one should give back to the community. I enjoy municipal government and politics in general and I identify with small town and rural living. I live here, have raised my family here. I am a good listener and committed to community concerns. Our Village of Chase is closely connected to several like-minded communities and towns. I believe in friendly community competition and like to promote it whenever possible. I am dedicated and committed to building a more sustainable sector, one which will ensure a balance between economic, environmental and social values.

What motivated me to run for municipal office was that I feel the time is right for me. I feel that Chase is at a crossroads and Chase needs to move forward economically, if we are going to grow. When I am elected to council, I know I will be able to work with the newly elected or re-elected council members to work on making Chase a stronger community for all ages.

Three years ago a sitting councillor approached me and asked if I would consider running for a council position. He said in his opinion that I had the qualities to become a good councillor. After some thought I realized that instead of complaining about local government decisions, you needed to be in a position to help shape policy. I ran for council and was elected.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

The Shuswap Market News is giving candidates an opportunity to answer one question per week in the run up to the Nov. 15 municipal election.

What motivated you to run for municipal office?

Chase Mayoralty Candidate

I have always been involved in my community and genuinely care. I originally ran for office as I wanted to become more involved in shaping the future by being part of the decision making. I have learned that at times some of the decisions that had to be made are not going to be those everyone wants. But with the support of most of the community, it has been rewarding.

I had almost 13 years on Chase Council with the last nine years as mayor. I was approached by many citizens as well as receiving many phone calls asking me to again run for the Mayor’s position. I have a reputation as being a very hard worker with very good work ethics.

I believe that we cannot keep following the same worn path and expect a different result. I believe that government is best when it is open and inclusive, engaging and consulting the citizens it serves and I believe that this is a better way forward for our village. We cannot afford another four years following the wrong path so, I am offering my voice and my vision, believing that, with public input and creative thinking, there is no challenge we cannot meet.

More than a year ago I was asked to consider running for trustee. I felt I had some understanding of the school system, which would be an asset to the job. Moreover, I felt that being on the school board would be both a good experience for myself and a chance to help our community by representing the North Shuswap.

Difficult birth for LNG cash cow

B.C. VIEWS Tom Fletcher VICTORIA – Debate is underway on the B.C. Liberal government’s tax and environmental plan for liquefied natural gas exports, amid the usual political theatre. Most media reported that the government “slashed” its proposed seven-percent LNG processing income tax by half, caving in to demands of international energy giants led by Petronas of Malaysia. The 3.5 per cent tax wouldn’t even take full effect until the massive capital investment is written down, and would rise to five per cent after 20 years of production. All of this casts further doubt on Premier Christy Clark’s extravagant election campaign promise to use LNG revenues to wipe out B.C.’s debt, currently approaching $70 billion, and provide an Alberta-style “prosperity fund” to perform further miracles. The seven per cent figure was the top end of the range presented this spring while negotiations with LNG investors were ongoing, so it’s not really accurate to say it was “slashed.” This cash calf hasn’t been born yet, and it remains to be seen if it will survive. Finance Minister Mike de Jong pointed out some of the shifts in the global gas market that have reduced expectations. Japan, one of the potential investors, is considering restarting its nuclear plants as it recovers from the 2011 Fukushima earthquake. China’s manic growth is slowing, and it has signed a long-term deal to im-

port cheaper Russian pipeline gas. Oil prices have dropped. The government’s change of tone started with the recent throne speech, which emphasized the fate of B.C.’s only current export market. “Like forestry, B.C.’s natural gas industry has relied on exports to the United States,” the speech observed. “But the American shale gas revolution has meant the export south has dried up – and is never coming back.” So before B.C. gets to that prosperity fund, it’s got to stop the bleeding. You may recall it was a U.S. hurricane-induced spike in gas revenues that allowed the province to spread an extra billion to calm its labour waters for the 2010 Olympics. The finance ministry estimates that after the startup period, a medium-sized LNG export operation would pay total taxes

of around $800 million a year to the province. De Jong notes that this is more revenue than B.C. will collect from the entire forest industry this year, from a single plant. There are 18 currently proposed. This new LNG income tax is nowhere near the biggest source. It’s bigger than the carbon tax that LNG producers will pay on fuel use, but only a fourth of what B.C. collects in royalties for selling the gas. The biggest source of revenue from this hoped-for plant is “other taxes,” which include sales tax and corporate income tax, which B.C. increased to 11 per cent last year. University of Calgary economist Jack Mintz, who supported B.C. on its ill-fated harmonized sales tax, says this additional LNG tax is wrongheaded at any rate. “If other provinces take the same view with respect to re-

source taxation, new levies would be applied to oil refining, forest product manufacturing, mining processing and a host of other activities linked to resource industries,” Mintz wrote last week in the Financial Post. If B.C. does get a substantial LNG export industry, it will include gas from Alberta, with royalties going there, not here. And companies are also wrangling with the federal government over its taxes, with local governments and First Nations still in line for their cut. The big question isn’t whether B.C. will get its fair share. It’s whether there will be anything to share. -Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

DUBITZ, STEVEN CONSTANTINE April 26, 1943 - October 22, 2014 We’re heartbroken to announce the death of our deeply beloved husband, father and brother, Steven Constantine Dubitz. Steve was predeceased by his parents: Constantine and Hannah (Aulin) Dubitz, and nephew David Becker. He is survived by his wife, Mary Dalgarno-Dubitz, daughter Kristel (Dave) Dubitz, sister Maxine (Dennis) Mucha, sisters-in-law Betty (Dale) Becker, Eileen (George Carlin) Boscher, numerous aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and cousins. Steve was born in Kamloops. His working career started when he was young, shoveling sawdust, wheat and numerous other tasks for his dad. As a teenager he worked summers taking tourists out for trail rides at Saratoga Resort. In his late teens and early twenties he worked on a paving crew for Dawson Construction. He and his father started their own general contracting company, Stecon Contractors Ltd. Steve’s backhoe, heading to or from a job, was a familiar site on the back roads. Although Chase was his home base, he worked throughout the province blasting and setting power poles, changing rails or ties for the railroad, installing waterlines and septic systems within the region. No job was too big or too small. Steve loved to ‘rattle a person’s chain’, in other words, he was a tease - but in a kindly manner. The one who received the brunt of this razzing was his sister Maxine. In 1986 Steve and Mary met, fell head over heels in love and were married. In 1988 they were blessed with their beautiful ‘gift from God’ and the apple of Steve’s eye, his daughter Kristel. Anyone who knew him knows how proud he was of her. Steve was an avid reader and prospector, in his younger days he loved to have the odd sociable. Steve lived life exactly as he wanted - he had an indomitable spirit and a zest for life that ensured most who came into contact with him walked away feeling uplifted. He was renowned for his smile, kind-heartedness and love of all creatures. He was a strong, gentle man who strove to make everyone’s day a little brighter. He was never impressed by the amount of money a person had, but rather by the strength of their character - as a result, he has friends too numerous to count. A memorial and celebration of Steve’s life will be held at the Chase Community Hall on Friday, November 7th at 11:00 am. Online condolences may be sent through Steven’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com Arrangements are in the care of Bowers Funeral Service, Salmon Arm, BC.

Email condolences and share memories through Ron’s obituary at www.fischersfuneralservices. com. CREASY, WILLIAM (BILL) WALTER Bill passed away on October 8, 2014 in Nebraska with his wife Carol at his side. Born on March 30, 1948 to Dr. George and Marie Creasy in Vancouver, Bill spent his childhood in West Vancouver. When he was a teenager, his family moved to a farm in Aldergrove and raised purebred Hereford and Simmental cattle. This is where Bill developed his love of farming. When he met Carol in April 1971, he found the woman he wanted to share his dreams with and they married that October. A year later, the young couple moved to Notch Hill and bought the dairy farm they operated until 1997. During those years, Bill was very involved in dairy organizations. Bill was a charter member of the Sorrento Lions Club, Captain of the Shuswap Lake Estates Men’s Golf Club, curled with clubs in Chase and Salmon Arm where he was skip in many bonspiels. When his children started playing, he coached the Salmon Arm High School rugby team and also served as a referee. Bill then joined the Kelowna Vicars Over-40 Rugby team as a front row prop and travelled internationally with them to New Zealand, Australia, the Cook Islands, Wales, Ireland and the southern U.S. After retiring from the dairy business, Bill continued farming and earned his First Aid certification. He worked on many wildfire sites in the interior and gas drilling sites in northern B.C. A few years ago, he decided it was time to do more fly fishing, camping and traveling. He and his brother Bert fished together frequently and especially liked the lakes above Merritt and salmon fishing in the Fraser River. Bill and Carol regularly travelled with their children. The family canoed and backpacked the Bowron Lakes, Lake O’Hara and many others. Their most memorable trip was RV-ing across Canada with sister-in-law Olwen and nieces Kim and Leah. In recent years Bill and Carol visited many U.S. National Parks. This autumn, the highlight of their RV trip was the Acadia Park in Maine and the Smoky Mountain National Park in Tennessee. Bill’s family was the centre of his life. He leaves his wife Carol, son Clint and daughter-in-law Julie, grandchildren Ivan, Gavin and Jerra. His daughter Keely-Ann Creasy Laas and son-in-law Chris Laas, grandchildren Kilian and Rayna. Bill also leaves his brother Bert, sister-in-law Ellen, nephews Jeff and Brad, wife Robin, and great-nephews, Jeffrey, Jackson and Caden; sister Elizabeth Creasy Burns and nephews David and Kevin and nieces, Christine and Donna. A Celebration of Life for Bill will be held at the Notch Hill Hall, 1639 Notch Hill Road, on Sunday, November 9 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Memorial donations can be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of BC or to the charity of your choice.

Police say compliance with boating rules on the increase By Richard Rolke

BLACK PRESS STAFF

The police made the rounds on North Okanagan lakes this summer. The RCMP marine patrol was on lakes in the North Okanagan

and Shuswap throughout the boating season. “Compliance is improving,” said Gord Molendyk, RCMP spokesperson. “Safety and education were the goal of the checks. We want

to make sure we don’t lose individuals on the water.” Officers inspected more than 1,000 vessels, including power boats, kayaks, canoes, paddleboards and personal water craft.

Among the violations were not enough life-jackets for the number of people on board, no spotter while towing a skier, no boat operator licence and underage operators on personal water craft.

These all carry a fine between $200 and $300. “Officers want to remind boat owners and operators that these fines can add up and can be costly both in a fine and more impor-

tant if an accident occurs on the lake,” said Molendyk. Anyone operating a boat with more than 10-horsepower is required to have a licence through Transport Canada, and you need

to display your number on both sides of the bow of the vessel in contrasting colour. Paddleboarders are required to have a lifejacket on their person or attached to the board at all times.
