Smoke causes flight to turn back to airport FOR THE TOWNSMAN

The smell of smoke caused a Pacific Coastal flight to return to the Canadian Rockies International Airport Thursday morning. Around 8:10 a.m. Pacific Coastal flight 630 left the Canadian Rockies International Airport bound for Vancouver. Once airborne there was a noticeable smell of smoke. At 8:13 a.m. the pilots declared an emergency and immediately turned the aircraft around and returned to the airport. Once the aircraft was shut down the smoke dissipated. All passengers and crew deplaned safely by 8:17 a.m.

No injuries were reported. The airport’s Emergency Plan was activated and both the BC Ambulance Service and Cranbrook Fire and Emergency Services responded. Fire crews inspected the entire aircraft for any potential hotspots but none were located. The aircraft has been removed from service pending an investigation by Pacific Coastal maintenance personnel. All passengers affected by today’s event were rebooked on different aircraft and departed safely Thursday morning.

Catholic Diocese lends hand for residents displaced by fire ARNE PETRYSHEN

On top of the many local social service organizations that provided support for the 15 residents displaced temporarily due to the apartment fire on Nov. 6 there was one other. The city recently noted that Father Peter Tomkins and Bishop John Corriveau of the Catholic Diocese of Nelson offered the use of Marywood as a

temporary residence for the people displaced by the fire. “We’re grateful if our facility can be of help to those affected,” Bishop John Corriveau told the Townsman. Marywood is a former retreat centre in Cranbrook that closed in January 2012.

The final guns of August The first of a two-part series on Cranbrook’s First World War trophy

JANUS:

Then & Now

Jim Cameron From the Cranbrook Herald, Aug. 12, 1920: “The captured German gun, which was presented to the city of Cranbrook by the Dominion Government, has arrived and is on exhibition on Baker Street, near the YMCA. It reached the city last Saturday afternoon, travelling on a flat car with two others of a similar type, which were presumably destined for another point. “The gun is a dangerous looking weapon, and in the hands of those trained in its operation could soon destroy a city like Cranbrook. Just what havoc to our fighting forces this particular field piece, a 77 millimetre gun of the latest type, has done, will never be known of course, but it

will never again fall into the hands of an enemy to destroy our young manhood. “All who look upon the destructive instrument cannot help but experience a thrill, and swell with pride the more over the accomplishments of our boys overseas. “The gun sill bears the marks of some of the camouflaging indulged in by the enemy to shield the weapon from the observer’s eyes, and it is said to be of the type which threw the ‘whizz bang’ shells. “It is said the gun was captured by a Canadian battalion, whether or not any of our boys at home took part in this important event is not known, so many guns having been taken from Fritz [the Germans]. It shows the marks of the strenuous usage to which it was put, and will long be a relic to be admired by every patriotic Canadian, and an eyesore to any Germans who venture our way.” From the Cranbrook Courier, Aug. 13, 1920: “War Trophy Has Reached Cranbrook. “The German 77 millimetre gun, the first

of five pieces promised Cranbrook by the War Trophies board, arrived in the city Saturday and is placed near the proposed site of the memorial. It has been inspected by number of returned men. “It is known as the Whizz Bang type or a three-inch gun. Its arrival will help stimulate interest in the fund now being raised for the erection of a suitable memorial for the fallen men of the Cranbrook district. Renewed efforts will be put forth again in the drive for funds, when the city will be thoroughly canvassed. Several persons anxious to contribute to the memorial were overlooked or not canvassed on the previous drive. “Unless we can raise three thousand dollars for a suitable monument for our fallen, this German gun, which evidently cost that much money to land it here, might just as well be scrapped and the proceeds devoted to help feed a few of the orphans. The list of dead … paid dearly for the winning of this gun, over one hundred sleeping their last long sleep in Flanders

The nationwide desire for community “war trophies’ was exploited by the government in order to assist fund-raising efforts – Herald, Nov.13 1919 the recently arrived German gun. The thought struck me (as I presume it has most mothers who have lost sons in the war) just how much that death dealing weapon cost the country and how

Fields.” A Letter to the Cranbrook Courier, Sept. 3, 1920: The other day whilst strolling along Baker Street with my family of three, my eyes fell upon

long it will remain in its present position. We should either place it in position for the world to gaze at as a trophy of the war, or relegate it to the scrap heap at MacKinnon’s Foundry. As it stands today it is neither useful nor ornamental. “[signed] A Cranbrook Mother.” It may come as a surprise to many that Cranbrook even has a captured World War I German field gun — or, more commonly “cannon.” Doubtless, There were numerous local opinions concerning the cannon arrival in the community in August, 1920, but these are among the few that remain. It represented different things to different people at the time and, it’s safe to say, does so to this day. Certainly, to those Canadians who fought in the war, the cannon was a hard-earned symbol of victory, meant to

CLASSIFIEDS HELP YOU SELL CALL: 426-5201 EXT. 202

reside in a prominent place in the community. For those who lost friends and family it could well bring darker reminders, as demonstrated by the unsigned Cranbrook mother, although, it would seem, she was not totally against its presence. The promise of a war trophy for a Canadian town was such that, following the war, the Federal Government offered them as prizes to communities that raised the most money in Victory Bonds (keeping in mind that although the war was over, the national debt was far from paid). The reference to “Fritz” — a common term for “German” at the time — is not necessarily overly derogatory as the Germans often referred to the English as “Tommy”. The statement that the cannon might prove to be “… an eyesore to “any Germans who venture our way,” merely serve as a reminder that German anti-sentiment was naturally very prevalent at the time and a captured German anything would likely be cause for celebration. Of course, Cranbrook was not the only community in Canada to receive a war trophy. Indeed, it appears that Kamloops won the prize offered in the advertisement. The remaining hundreds of cannons, et al, were awarded to communities on the basis of how many native sons served their country. There are, to the present day, numerous communities that boast such prizes, often displayed with pride. Conversely, there are many that have been lost, scrapped, stolen or vandalized beyond repair. So, too, there are those which have lost their meaning and stand rusting and decaying, alone and forgotten and, of course, there is the Cranbrook cannon, which graced the public view in various places of honour for decades and now sits in a rear parking lot of a local hotel.

Josh Dueck announces his retirement Kimberley’s home town hero retires after illustrious career in para-alpine skiing C A R O LYN G R A N T

There is not much more one athlete could accomplish. Paralympic gold medalist, double silver medalist, world champion, X-Games champion, Josh Dueck has won them all. And Thursday, he announced his retirement from competitive ski racing. Dueck said it was a decision he wrestled with. “Using a Seinfeld analogy, I feel like I have a couple more good seasons in me,” he said. “But I want to end on a positive note. “Skiing is my lifeblood and you’ll still see me contributing to the sport.” Dueck says he hopes to continue to work with Alpine Canada in some capacity, likely promotion and mentorship. What that role will look like has not yet been defined. He says he will be working on recertifying as a para-alpine coach among other things in the coming months. “My success has been a product of what people have given to me, so I would like to give back,” he said. Dueck says the decision was not an easy one. “For the first time this year, I took a solid month a way. I went to Vancouver

my heart. I don’t want to miss these days with my daughter. “I’m retiring with a positive feeling for the sport. The decision is right for me.” Asked if it was particularly difficult considering the world para-alpine championships are coming to Pan-

orama this season, Dueck said definitely yes. “It was devastatingly difficult decision considering how much I wanted to be there. I will be there but I won’t be racing.” The bottom line, Dueck says, is that he hasn’t been doing the training he would need to be doing in order to

be successful. “I can identify when I’m not doing what it takes. If I’m not giving it my all every day, I’m putting myself at risk. I love to hammer down, I love revving. But if there is a seed of doubt in my mind.... “It wasn’t fair to the team, for the young guys to see my approach. It’s breaking my

heart. I wanted to be in Panorama. I know that hill so well I could probably cheat it and still do fairly well, but that’s not what I want. It’s not safe. It’s not smart.” Brianne Law, athletic director for the Canadian Para-Alpine Ski Team, says they still hope Dueck will have a role in helping to ramp up excitement for the Panorama World Championships and that he will continue to work with Alpine Canada. “He has been an unbelievable ambassador for the Paralympic movement.” Dueck says he has a great deal of gratitude for the support of friends, family, sponsors and fans during his racing career. “The strength of a nation gave me the strength to do what I did,” he said. Life post-ski racing won’t be void of adventure for Dueck, who is working on a book about redefining what’s possible, as told through his personal experiences. He also plans to stay involved as an ambassador for para-alpine skiing through coaching, mentoring, and helping to test and develop equipment for upcoming athletes. Dueck will pursue his passion for freeskiing as an athlete at the upcoming XGames, and by filming projects like the award-winning documentary, The Freedom Chair. “Really, I just want to continue to share my story,” Dueck said. “I recognize that having been able to represent Canada on the world stage is a great honour and a privilege. The opportunity to convey the beauty and power of sport is not lost on me. I hope to continue to be able to do that moving forward, and show future generations that what you might think is impossible, isn’t.”

Pocock said they are actually quite busy with pruning at Public Works. He said the cold weather is actually the perfect time to do the pruning on most deciduous trees because the trees go dormant so the cuts are safer, and the trees are leafless, so the branch structure can be seen. He noted the maple trees are the exceptions, as the cold makes them bleed. The city also has a large portable trailer wood chipper which it uses to make mulch. Pocock said the mulch is used mostly around Elizabeth Lake and provides insolation as well as feeding roots as it breaks down. In places where there is a path the mulch can be used as a barrier between the bath and the grass, so when the grass is cut,

The organizing committee for the 60-year reunion of Mount Baker Secondary School’s graduation class of 1954 had some leftover funds following an event to mark the anniversary this past August. On Thursday, the committee donated those funds—$757.98—to the Cranbrook Health Care Auxiliary, which was accepted by Bonnie Close, president of the organization.

Nearby chiefs’ pay pales next to ex-Shuswap Chief Sam’s Steve Hubrecht Invermere Valley Echo

A survey of the financial statements disclosed under the First Nations Financial Transparency Act by all five First Nations in the East Kootenay (the four Ktunaxa member communities plus the Shuswap Indian Band) and the nine constituent First Nations of the Shuswap Nation Tribal Council (of which the local Shuswap Band is a member), which are located in the Kamloops-Salmon Arm area, found — with the Columbia Valley’s Shuswap Indian Band being the one exception — that chiefs’ pay ranged from $7,200 to $81,000 a year, full-year councillor pay ranged from $7,200 to $72,500, while band revenues ranged from $2.31 million to $25 million. As reported recently in The Pioneer and other media outlets, Shuswap Chief Paul Sam made $202,000 during the April 2013 to March 2014 fiscal year while his ex-wife and Shuswap councillor Alice Sam made $202,000 during the same period. Their son Dean Martin, the CEO of the band’s corporate entity, the Kinbasket Development Corporation, had a salary that averaged $536,000 from April 2010 to March 2013. During that same period, the Shuswap Band posted revenue of $2.21 million, while the Kinbasket Development Corporation posted revenue of $340,000 and held assets of more than $5 million. At the Akisqnuk First Nation, near Windermere, the chief and four councillors all make salaries of $18,200, and the band posted

revenues of $3.79 million for the last financial year. For the other three Ktunaxa communities: the Lower Kootenay Band near Creston paid its chief $60,000 and remuneration for the band’s councillors ranged from $27,000 to $17,000. The band had $5.53 million in revenue; at the St. Mary’s Indian Band (now known as aq’am), the chief and councillor make $9,050, and during the last financial year the band had revenue of $4.61 million; and the Tobacco Plains First Nation posted revenue of $2.31 million and the chief was remunerated $7,900 for the past financial year. Councillors who served the whole year were remunerated $8,200 and $9,400; those who served only partial terms had remuneration ranging from $8,700 to $2,300. Among the First Nations of the Shuswap Nation Tribal Council, the Adams Lake Indian Band chief was remunerated $79,000, councillors’ remuneration was between $56,000 and $49,000 and the band had $15 million in revenue. The Bonaparte Indian Band had $4.7 million in revenue, and all councillors and the chief are meant to be paid $7,200. Bonaparte chief Randy Porter, however, chose to forgo his pay and instead donated it back to the band’s membership services department. The band had revenue of $4.7 million. At the Neskonlith Indian Band, the chief was paid $69,000, band councillor remuneration ranged from $29,000 to $60,000, and the band had $6.9 million in revenue.

The Simpcw First Nation had revenue of more than $8 million, its chief had $58,000 in pay, and its councillors between $15,000 and $29,000. At the Skeetchestn Indian Band, the chief was paid $45,000, the councillors between $40,000 and $43,000 and the band’s posted revenue was almost $7.5 million. The Splatsin First Nation paid its chief $52,000, its full-year-term councillors $43,000, its partial-term councillors between $13,000 and $30,000 and had $9.7 million in revenue. At the Tk’emlups Indian Band, the chief had a salary of $81,000 the councillors had salaries of $72,500 and the band posted more than $25 million in revenue. The Whispering Pines/Clinton Indian Band paid its chief $48,000 and its councillors more, with councillors paid between $50,000 and $55,000. The band had revenues of $5.9 million. The Martin family has shot back against criticism of their salaries, pointing to the considerable economic growth on the band’s land in recent decades as justification, saying in a press release that the band has transformed from having “no economic (or) self-sustaining opportunity to a community that has achieved the development of lands from zero property tax base in 1998 to a development tax base in excess of $70 million in 2014.” The press release also cited glowing reviews of the band’s financial success story by prominent indigenous Canadians.

Make good use of your right to vote

f I sound like a broken record, I apologize. Okay, not really, but still, I’ve been covering and plugging this for the last few months. I’m talking, of course, about the municipal election. Advance voting is over, but the general election is set for tomorrow, Saturday, Nov. 15th. For municipal residents voting for candidates who are running for city council, mayor, and school district trustee, polls will be set up at Laurie Middle School from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. For people who live outside municipal boundaries under the jurisdiction of the RDEK, polls will be open at the RDEK boardroom during the same timeframe, where area residents can vote for their electoral area director and school board trustee. In addition to the LMS location, there will be special voting times for residents at care facilities in Cranbrook including: Mountain View Village, Joseph Creek Village, Joseph Creek Care Village, F.W. Memorial Home, Scott Villa and patients at the East Kootenay Regional Hospital. As part of Cranbrook’s municipal election, an assent question is on the ballot on the Cease Fluoridation bylaw. A ‘yes’ vote means stopping fluoridation, a ‘no’ vote means continuing fluoridation. If you are not registered on the list of electors, bring two pieces of identification when you come to vote at either locations, and they can set it up and help you exercise your democratic right. There have been many opportunities to get a look at the candidates. The main event was the JCI Kootenay’s All-Candidates Forum that featured a jampacked Key City Theatre, as residents came

out to hear from 16 council and three mayoral candidates. It was encouraging to see so much interest from everyone, considering voter turnout in the last election cycle, which was around 30 percent. That’s awful and I think it’s fair to say that number should be much better. The right to vote is one of the most precious freedoms we enjoy in this country at any level of government, and from a global perspective, we are lucky to have that right when you see how people in other countries are oppressed and don’t get a say about their future. Voter turnout in Canada has been on the decline at the federal and provincial levels for many years. I think voter apathy plays a big part Trevor in that and the thinking that Crawley ‘nothing ever changes so my vote doesn’t matter.’ That, of course, is baloney. Every vote matters, especially at the municipal level. Consider the numbers: Wayne Stetski needed only 1,329 votes to get elected in 2011. That’s less than 10 per cent of Cranbrook’s population. Denise Pallesen, who ran for city council, managed to crack the 10 per cent threshold with 2,209 votes. That criticism may be a little unwarranted because I’m going off population rather than a number based on a list of eligible voters, but still, those totals can be much higher. From covering the election, I’ve been encouraged by events like the All-Candidates Forum at the Key City Theatre. A full theatre shows that people care about the community, the issues and the course for the future. And a tip of the hat to the candidates running for mayor, council and school district trustee as well. Regardless of being

elected or not, it takes guts to put yourself out there and put yourself on display for the community to scrutinize. While a few common themes have emerged from the candidates (and residents)—like the state of the infrastructure and the city budget—it’s been great to have the conversation touch on areas such as economic development, tourism and arts and culture, to name a few. This election is just another in the municipal cycle, but it’s one that will shape the city for the next four years. And on Saturday, you will have the chance to have a say in that future. Trevor Crawley is a reporter with the Daily Townsman.

Check out our special election coverage The Cranbrook Daily Townsman/ Kimberley Daily Bulletin is running a special supplement in today’s paper where candidates for mayor and council in both communities were given the chance to make their final case before voting day. Mayoral candidates were given space for a 300-word article, while council candidates had a 200-word limit. Each article is written directly by the candidate and only edited for grammar or to adhere to the word count. In the Daily Townsman, the mayoral candidates are on Page 9, while the council candidates are on Page 10-11. In the Daily Bulletin, mayoral candidates are on Page 9, and council candidates are on Page 10.

Opinion/Events Letters to the Editor

Non-profit support

This Saturday being municipal election day I would like to remind voters in Cranbrook and Kimberley of the importance of voting for candidates who will continue municipal support for the not-for-profit sector in each of our communities. In the current drive to hold the line on taxes espoused by many candidates for election in both communities, there is a danger that, if elected, their bottom-line agendas may lead to a reduction in the support provided by council for the operations of not-forprofit organizations. Not-for-profit organizations are largely driven by volunteers who hold community interests above self-interest and who work to enhance the quality of life for residents by offering needed services or programs and events that provide pleasurable involvement and entertainment, events that also attract tourists to the community, providing a spin-off economic benefit to local accommodators, restaurants and businesses. For example, in Kimberley a total of 58 community events have been tabulated by the City’s economic development officer, Kevin Wilson, so far in 2014. Many of these were organized by not-for-profit volunteer organizations. They include 8 weekly village markets, 6 First Saturday celebrations, a week-long Kimberley Kaleidoscope festival, the Julyfest weekend sporting events and concert, the Dirtbag festival, 10 orienteering / running / biking events, 7 skiing-related events, Marysville Days and the Kimberley Fall Fair, Bullarama, McWhinnie Days, A Lillith Affair, a carnival, roller derby, and the list goes on. Add to these the 13 exhibitions and 6 to 10 concerts held at Centre 64 each year, Rotary, Lions Club, and Foodbank annual events, and it becomes evident that the fun of living in a community like Kimberley lies to a large extent in the programs and events provided by volunteer not-forprofit organizations. A similar list of Cranbrook events could be made pointing to the same conclusion. It is essential to the future quality of life in our communities that these programs and events continue and that City Councils continue to support them. Please consider this when marking your ballots on Saturday. Mike Redfern Cranbrook

On recent letters

How you might help your City to Lower Taxes. Thank you to everyone who contributed letters for the Monday edition, and to the Townsman for printing them. Taken together, they show that Cranbrook taxes are very high compared to other cities of its size, and also give us some suggestion as to why this is the case. Firstly, I accept the Wheeldon’s facts, since they are using public sources, which anyone can look up. (Cranbrook taxes are about three times higher than we paid on the Coast.) Regarding CUPE, Mr. Jensen is incorrect about one point. CUPE is not primarily concerned about social spending. It is concerned about promoting the interests of its own members. It is perfectly legal for them to support candidates of their choosing. CUPE wrote letters to all us candidates asking our opinions, so we all had a fair chance to explain ourselves. Since I was an elected union executive, I know how and why this is done. Another influ-

ential group is the firefighters union, which phoned us all to invite us for personal interviews. Mr. Collins writes like a reviewer. I loved his vivid description of the political theatre. (Perhaps you could sign him up for your paper.) Ms. Humphrey asks an excellent questions, and answering requires some history. Because of my promise to not reveal sources, I have learned lots about why Cranbrook taxes have long been so high, and why so many roads are bad. Some Councillors years ago gave road contracts to relatives who were paid full price, but simply scraped off the topsoil and laid thin layers of gravel and pavement. There are many such examples. Although I am much happier to hear about politicians serving union interests rather than personal ones, I think Cranbrook really needs more politicians who are dedicated to serving all its taxpayers. I believe those promoting financial restraint are sincere and well informed, and that they have facts that would not normally be revealed in Council Chambers. As to their sincerity, I did mention that most of us could afford to give half our pay back to the city. Other new candidates told me that they would do the same as I had offered. Answering Ms. Love, I would put the facts in the paper about any public decisions that had lasting implications for taxpayers. Tax money is your money, and you should know where it goes. Alan MacBean Cranbrook

Democracy

Ms. Humphrey; It’s nice to see you share the same concerns, interests and passion in the community as the people running for council. This is clear by your letter to the editor. With dedication like this I must wonder why you have not allowed your name to stand for nomination. It is obvious by the large number of candidates that it is felt that our community needs change. Perhaps you shouldn’t come across as so bitter and show some engagement to them in a positive way. You talk about costs such as policing and fire protection; why don’t you think positive and engage these people in dialog to see what solutions they may have in mind? You talk about Elizabeth Lake, the new sign to welcome people to Cranbrook and the improvement to the west entrance; it is your opinion this is cost effective beauty. In my opinion, it is not. (Democracy) You also talk about 14th avenue and the beautification; yes it looks better but the cost associated with it is not acceptable to some. (Democracy) The departmental decision to double up the benches should have been overseen by council. It is council’s job if they feel it is an acceptable expense, if they choose that it is then stand behind the decision. This doesn’t mean that we will all agree but in my mind it is frivolous spending. Look at the recreation complex and the huge expense it is to the tax payers at over $9,000 per day. I am a supporter of arts, culture and heritage, in which the Western Financial Place falls under according to the presentation from the Arts Council on October 22. That being said, I would like to see every avenue investigated to reduce this cost. Ms. Humphrey, the people running for council believe there are other options. We share the same passion you do but we are willing to allow our names to stand. If you do ever consider running for office, keep in

mind that you cannot please everyone and you may not have all the answers although I am sure you will do your best. I hope that you will be so kind as to extend your best wishes to the new council as there will be at least three new members that will benefit from your support of their best efforts to the same degree that you support the current council. Help them to lessen the burden on young families, senior citizens and businesses that pay taxes. Bob Faiers Cranbrook

Climate change

Enough is enough. I am getting thoroughly fed up with reading the right wing pro-corporate rantings of so-called journalist Tom Fletcher. His latest press release for the B.C. Liberals, otherwise known as an editorial, calls into question the existence of climate change. May I remind Mr. Fletcher that he is entitled to his opinion but he is not a climate scientist and therefore lacks any credibility whatsoever on this issue. His article on carbon dioxide emissions in the Nov. 4 issue does raise some interesting points. To be fair, he does criticize the government to the extent that their targets for CO2 emissions will be seriously compromised in the event that LNG development proceeds according to campaign promises. He describes himself as a climate change skeptic and mentions that global temperatures have not risen significantly in the last 18 years, as if this is proof of the non-existence of climate change. Information in recent periodicals such as the Guardian Weekly have pointed out that the Atlantic Ocean is absorbing much more heat than previously thought. This may explain the apparent lack of temperature rise but it is hardly good news. The oceans are also absorbing the massive quantities of carbon dioxide which causes a change in PH levels, which is already measurable. This will lead to massive disruption in the food chain, as it makes it difficult for calcium-based creatures such as shellfish, and more importantly zooplankton (a critical base in the ocean food chain), to build shells and therefore survive. This is just the beginning, and it is going to to get much worse unless we wake up and do something to reverse this trend. There is not time or space enough to get into a discussion about the intricacies of climate change, but one thing is well agreed upon by the scientific community: Humans are altering the make-up of our atmosphere and this is exacerbating if not causing climate change. Future generations (assuming there are any) will curse us for our obtuse response to this slow motion disaster. It is beyond irresponsible for people like Mr. Fletcher to use his access to the media to spread the lie that there is a debate as to the existence of climate change. There is no debate. It is here and we have some stark choices to make. I can only hope that readers of his columns do their homework and subject his rantings to the critical analysis that is so often lacking in the media. We are in serious trouble if we let cranks like him influence public opinion. Jim Campbell Wycliffe

Letters to the Editor Previous minutes

I am glad that the mayor agrees that facts are important. He even goes so far as to recognize that some initial work was done by the previous council. What he fails to acknowledge is that the initial work was in fact the creation of the downtown economic development zone. This creation and vision for the downtown core was presented to council in October of 2011 and spelled out the area and parameters that formed the basis for the bylaw brought forward by the next council. A portion of the minutes follows; (10) Business Arising Moved by Councillor Wavrecan and seconded 405-11 That Council instruct staff to bring forward the creation of two (2) Economic Development Zones. These will be brought forward under the guidelines of The Community Charters’ Revitalization Program. 1. All property owners of residential lots within residential zones where single family dwellings are permitted, who renovate their properties to develop legal, conforming secondary suites, will be eligible for tax relief from the increased value of their properties, as a result of their renovations, for a period of 5 years. 2. All property owners whose property lay within what is called the Downtown Parking Area, who invest into renovations of existing buildings or construction of new buildings will be eligible for municipal property tax relief from the increased value of their properties as a result of their renovations or new construction, for a period of 5 years. These (2) two Economic Development zones would be Subject to the guidelines of the Community Charter. Carried Unanimously  The prime function of a mayor and council is to provide a vision and develop policies and procedures to move the city in the desired direction. I thank you and your council for sharing at least some of my vision.  Jim Wavrecan Cranbrook

Deer Mr. Hills

Sorry, Bill, but you are working with only part of my campaign promise and with old science. What I say in my brochure is “Promote non-lethal urban deer management, harvesting as required for public safety”. While the final decision to harvest or not will rest with the next Council almost 70% of the respondents to Cranbrook’s deer survey support another cull, so I suspect that there will be one. However we can do better in the future… I am part of a Committee that is looking to get translocations underway because the new science out of the western USA tells us that it can be, and has been, done successfully. The Committee includes BC’s Provincial Veterinarian, local Fish and Wildlife staff, local Fish and Game Clubs, and municipalities. The translocation will be science based and serve as a model for other communities wrestling with the same problem – Cranbrook helping to lead the way once again! Mayor Wayne Stetski Cranbrook

Many questions

I have become extremely frustrated with some of our elected officials and glad to see people finally taking a stand. Watching this current council I can tell you that there has been lots of spending issues. The problem is to prove the facts you have to pay the city hundreds to thousands of dollars to obtain this information or you have to be a genius to interpret some of the categories in line items on the budget. The west end sign by Elizabeth Lake from my understanding was a budgeted item of $70,000 and apparently the costs for the final project were in the hundreds of thousands. I have tried to obtain an exact cost, budgeting process, council authorizations, and never received the information. I have submitted a Freedom of Information Request to the City and was told that the cost to me would be almost $700 to receive this information. Legislation states that the first 3 hours of research and staff time to prepare the documents are to be free. I’m pretty sure any business owner could produce documents within three hours or simply be

transparent and tell me. I was disappointed when I found out that the City had paved the service road to the spray irrigation site at a cost of $125,000 to $250,000. I’m thinking the residents along 27A Avenue or countless other streets in Cranbrook would have rather had their roads paved. I reviewed the 5 year financial plan and it warrants me to ask a lot of other questions. $15 million dollars in new borrowing which includes $300,000 for solar panels on Western Financial Place. Under special projects there is over 1 million dollars to be spent on just studies and plans alone in the next two years. This Mayor and council have another $500,000 in borrowing to re-purpose the old Firehall. Our Mayor advocating it to be a permanent home for the Arts Council. How many households or businesses do you know that are struggling to maintain a budget are throwing money around to purchase art. It is time for the City to think the same way. The fact is taxes, Development Cost Charges, city fees and services cannot keep rising at the rate they are before you bankrupt the taxpayer both residential and business. A vote for Wayne Stetski and this current council is a vote for “Higher Taxes.” Not voting at all is a vote for ‘Higher Taxes”. Darcy Wiebe Cranbrook

Response to letters

Re: Alex Jensen’s letter to the editor, Nov. 10. For the record, I did not suggest that we tax businesses more. I stated my position clearly in my letter: “While property taxes are a deductible expense for businesses, and not for residents, many small businesses do struggle with property taxes. Some municipalities have different approaches for dealing with commercial taxes that might be worth opening up for discussion.” As for your allegation that I am part of a slate, that is also incorrect. I stand on my record as being an independent thinker, not always having agreed with the mayor or other members of council. The letter from CUPE Local 2090 actually lists six Councillor candidates they endorse.

Slates, etc

Time to set the record straight on an underhanded attempt to smear four of the candidates running for Mayor and Council. Speaking only for myself, I was not interviewed by anyone from CUPE during this campaign nor have I knowingly spoke to any CUPE member though I certainly wouldn’t hesitate to do so the same as I’d speak to any Cranbrook citizen. I did fill out a CUPE questionnaire that I received in the mail and my good wife Sandra dropped it off at the CUPE office. That’s the total extent of my CUPE involvement and I certainly don’t apologize for it as I filled out a questionnaire from the Cranbrook Chamber of Commerce too. That’s what candidates do in elections. So what’s going on here? Alex Jensen, who made the original slate allegation in the Cranbrook Townsman, ran in the 2002 civic election as an unabashed member of a slate along with lawyers Ron Miles and John Zimmer and local businessman Percy Davis. Except they didn’t call it a slate. They called it a “team” and at an all candidates meeting Nov. 14, 2002 Miles defended the team approach saying the team was just a group of friends and “friendship helps the decision-making process.” No kidding! And how did the team fare in the 2002 election? Miles came in third out of three in the mayoralty contest and Jensen finished 10th out of 13 running for Council. The people of Cranbrook saw very clearly through that “team” and I believe they will see just as clear-eyed through Jensen’s baseless allegation in the current campaign. Councillor Gerry Warner Cranbrook

31st Avenue

The People First Society of Cranbrook have appreciated working with Mayor Stetski and City Council to make Cranbrook more accessible, such as with the automatic door opener at the RCMP building and the accessibility restrooms at City Hall.

We moved to Cranbrook last July to a wonderful neighbourhood on 31st Ave South. Behind our property, as well as the neighbours was a vacant lot, which was sold. We were told it was zoned RR-8 but was not of a size that could be built on with that zoning. The new owners of the property wanted to build a multi-family dwelling. A variance was applied for and subsequently denied. With no building permit in place, civil work still carried on with the dumping of fill until letters to the City caused them to issue a stop work order. March 17, 2014, this property was rezoned to R-1, along with the many broken promises which are recorded in the City council minutes. We as well as our neighbours wrote many letters to the City in regards to the suite, civil work and drainage. We were assured all our concerns would be looked after. The City, then graciously repaired a berm, with tax payers dollars that was damaged by a private contractor during the installation of sewer and water to the concerned property. Then it happened, used highway barriers as a make shift retaining wall, more fill, and finally, construction of the dwelling. All work, according to the City was completed within their bylaws. However it is these gray area bylaws, along with other bylaws which are in place that were not enforced by the City that have caused all the grief. The house now looks nothing like the original plan; it is now just a giant rectangle box with garages up and down, dirt spilling into the Hydro easement, weeds between the highway barriers and existing fences. The house plans have changed, over and over again! All approved by only the City of Cranbrook building inspector! The drainage has now been completely changed! This has caused people, my self-included to look at and implement preventive action at my cost? How can this happen? The final straw in this whole charade was the approval from the City not to have stairs from the main floor to the basement! Would you go outside to get to your basement? Is it a suite? Not unless it has a stove! That is a quote from the City Building Inspector! The owners have built what they wanted, even though the zoning bylaw states no secondary suites in R-1! Will the City step up and do something about it? It appears anything goes in the City of Cranbrook. Drive by, take a look, it could happen next door to you!

Re: Jason and Christie Wheeldon letter to the editor November 10 It is unfortunate that the Wheeldons are trying to make something personal out of something that wasn’t. I never used his name in my letter to the Editor. There was no “counterattack”, nor was it personal. The real issue is what we really pay in taxes, and how that compares with other municipalities. According to the most recent figures from The Canadian Federation of Independent “municipal spending watch” (http://www.cfib-fcei.ca/cfib-documents/BC1004.pdf ) Cranbrook was ranked 81 out of 151 provincially (improved from 99) and 14 out of 28 municipalities in its regional category in spending per capita for 2012. Commendable, given we are almost twice as large as any of the regional communities we were compared to and, with a population greater than 15,000, the only one required to cover 90% of its policing costs. Projected taxes are not the end result, only the starting point for budget discussions. Using the previous administration as an example, a property tax increase of 30.66% was projected for the five year period from 2010 to 2014. That increase never materialized. We all struggle with tax increases. Sharon Cross, Councillor

Talk to you soon.

Wayne Stetski

John York

Candidate for Mayor of Cranbrook

Cranbrook has been my home for 65 years. I have been married to my wife Loopy for 44 years. We have a daughter and a son and with their spouses they have blessed us with 3 grandchildren. They all live in Cranbrook. I bring to the table 45 years of successful business experience in sales, management and ownership. In my most recent career, I helped people manage their personal and business financial affairs. I personally managed close to 100 million dollars. I was also responsible for several other advisors and support staff managing over 600 million dollars. My two highest priorities for change are financial responsibility and economic development. We have to stop the frivolous spending and costly unnecessary projects. Budgets must be set on a needs basis not a wants basis. Consideration must be given for the majority of the citizens of Cranbrook. Economic development is all about growth. We need to broaden our tax base. We have to promote the benefits and resources of Cranbrook such as the airport, College of the Rockies, Regional hospital, affordable housing, arts and cultural events and the sporting activities available at a reasonable cost. City hall must work with the existing businesses, College of the Rockies, Columbia Basin Trust and the Provincial Government to recognize opportunities to attract additional residents and business interests which will add good paying jobs to keep our young families here. If elected, I promise the citizens of Cranbrook I will put my strong work ethic, honesty and integrity, and strong decision making skills to work for them. I want to use my proven leadership, proven managerial skills and proven financial management to restore the confidence in a City Council that will make the right decisions in the spending of their tax dollars.

A clear choice for mayor 2014 to 2018. My thanks to John York and Lee Pratt for running for Mayor – democracy is best served by having choices. Your choice is now very clear. Together over the last three years we have moved Cranbrook forward in all aspects: the economy, roads and other infrastructure, recreation, arts and culture, youth and seniors, the environment, improvements for people with disabilities and for those living in poverty, and for those needing a family doctor. What we are seeing in this campaign is a coordinated push from a group who want to try to ensure that only “preferred” voices get heard at City hall. Mr. Pratt’s vision, according to his flyer, is limited to the economy, spending and potholes. Our city is so much more! Contrary to some of the myths coming from Mayoral candidates the Reality is: • The city’s finances are in good shape. We finished 2013 with a $1,680,000 surplus and $13,872,276 in Reserve Funds. • There will not be a 25% increase in taxes. Mayor Manjak’s 2010 Financial Plan predicted an 18.99% tax increase for 2012 through 2014, the term of this Council. We approved taxes totaling 12.65%, and the first 3% went directly to road improvements. • Every expenditure is debated by Council during a series of public budget meetings and every dollar benefits our community. Mr. York and Mr. Pratt have never been to a budget meeting. • Building permits, real estate sales, business licenses and airport usage are all on the upswing! Your choice is very clear – choose an unproven candidate and go backwards to the old way of managing Cranbrook or embrace a progressive future where all of your interests matter. Let’s continue to move our great city forward together. On November 15, Re-Elect Wayne Stetski for Mayor.

Look At All I’ve Done: 1) Election Security Was Slack – I’ve been writing letters to all levels of government or three years, trying to improve ballot counting security. Our last two Electoral Officers are now gone. And security has been tightened in most areas. But sadly, what goes on behind closed doors, could be improved. 2) RecPlex Is Sacred – Three years ago I was the only mayoral candidate who dared challenge this money pit. I’ve figured out that Every “DAY” City Hall is burning $ 9,431 of your tax dollars, to keep the RecPlex afloat. 3) Field Charges Were Automatic – I also stopped Leisure-services knee jerk response of demanding that anybody wanting to use a field for a casual game (such as soccer) had to book a field, and pay a fee. Now you can use any unoccupied field or school yard for a pick up game, without fear of penalty. 4) Transparency – I found out that city hall has no policy to disclose how the mayor or counselors voted, nor must they list, what they accomplished while in office. Without accountability, how do we know who to re-elect and who to boot out of office. 5) Fluoride Is A Poison – I was the only mayoral candidate to demand we remove fluoride from our drinking supply. I spent two years writing letters describing how deadly fluoride is. And now we can vote to remove it.

James Elliott

Candidate for City Council

Cranbrook has been my home for the past 19 years. It has been a wonderful place to live and to raise my three children. Now that they have grown up and left the nest, I have time to devote to my community as a member of city council. I’ve worked in the forest industry, taught a few thousand Cranbrook students, and spoken with hundreds of residents. I’ve also volunteered with many different organizations including the Cranbrook Community Forest Society, Salvation Army and Cranbrook Minor Lacrosse. I am aware of the issues that are important to Cranbrook families. My priorities will be improving our infrastructure and growing our local economy. We also need to implement the results of the deer survey, promote our public transit system, and do whatever we can to ensure that every Cranbrook resident has a family physician. I am practical, decisive and approachable. No one can know it all. As a city councilor I will consult with the experts, choose a course of action based on the best information available, and be open to new information as it arises. You can count on me to listen and to act on behalf of the people of Cranbrook.

Danielle Cardozo is a first time municipal candidate, but no stranger to community development. Danielle is the Business Development Coordinator for St. Mary’s Band (Aq’am) and their development corporation, Aq’am Community Enterprises (ACE). Her focus with the organizations is to build economic revenue, while maintaining the community culture and values. Danielle plans to bring this community focused strategy to the City of Cranbrook, by being a Councilor who has current, first hand economic experience in community development. Revenue brought in through development can then be used to support infrastructure growth, social programming, healthcare expansion; as well arts and culture initiative. As a member of Council, Danielle will dedicate her time to educating herself about the residents’ priorities. She believes in thinking outside the box and looks forward to bringing a new perspective and fresh solutions to infrastructure and social issues. Danielle will bring the same passion to the City, as she has in her position with Aq’am and ACE. While not related to political policy and decision making, Danielle’s recent appearance on MasterChef Canada shows her ability to represent Cranbrook with integrity. It is also a shining example of her ambition, dedication, and work ethic. She is willing to put herself out there in order to succeed.

I moved to Cranbrook whenI was young and been here most of my life.I raised my family here. I love this city. I ran my campaign on a zero dollar budget. I chose this way. The message of lack of accountability, over spending trust and respect that has been non-existent in this council is now being echoed from voices of the great citizens of this city. For 30 years I worked within the city of cranbrook. I gathered knowledge, experience and common sense. This needs to be shared with you the taxpayers. If it has been done before and failed, let’s not do the same thing again. We need an accurate budget and one that shows that we actually know what these items are and the precise costs involved. The direction council has taken is one that we can not afford to follow. The future of this great city depends of you. The future of our children depends on you. The direction the new council will follow depends of you. Your vote can change that direction. I want to thank everyone for allowing me to voice my opinion and concerns how council is spending your tax dollar. The citizens of Cranbrook need to know their tax dollar is being spent wisely. We need a voice to say that enough is enough. I am that voice.

Cross demonstrates her commitment to the community by doing her homework and having a 100% attendance record at Council meetings. Re-elect Sharon Cross to ensure continuity and support a progressive approach towards a vibrant, inclusive future for Cranbrook.

Candidate for City Council

I am a 4th generation born and raised resident of Cranbrook. I have been married to my wife Terry for 28 years and I have on daughter who was recently married, all living in the community. I have spent over 25 years in the forest industry before opening my own small business True Flite Archery. I have served with many non-profit organizations over the last 30 years, working in the fields of forestry, land-use planning, hunting and trapping. I feel that my life experiences can offer a different point of view on City Council. Cranbrook has many issues facing our community such as roads, spending, environment, wildlife, the water shed and local business. My two main priorities if I am elected would be long term financial planning and infrastructure. It needs to be reflected that the community is open for business. City Council needs to have more open debate. By having more open debate means more transparency and a council that will better understand the needs of the community. I promise fair representation and I will stand up for what is right. I want to see a vibrant community that is not afraid to grow but still retain the small town values.

Wesly Graham is seeking a seat on Cranbrook council. Graham has 9 years previous council experience he is bring with him as he has moved back to his home town. Cranbrook has been home to Grahams’ family for 3 generations and where he was born and raised. Wesly says he got his appetite for municipal politics from sitting in his Grandpa Roys’ barbershop where so many conversations happened around politics. Graham will focus on the issues of infrastructure, health care and safety, recreation and economic opportunities. “These are the factors that people look at when moving to a community.” “It’s time to stop the studies and get projects moving. I believe there is savings to be found in our current budgets that we can reinvest in our community to build it stronger and better than ever.” Graham is also bringing his past work experiences to the table, which include 4 years working in the sawmill industry, 6 years office manager/ bookkeeper of a small business and now is employed with the Federal Government. Graham has learned how to stretch dollars and look to new fresh ideas for innovation and cost savings. Graham would love to answer any questions, also check out his website www.wesgraham.ca for contact information.

Isaac Hockley Candidate for City Council Cranbrook is a great city and as a member of council I will continue to build upon the strengths of our community while at the same time bring a fresh perspective to local government. As a third generation businessman, I want to see a community that encourages small business growth and reduces barriers for local businesses. I want to explore opportunities to expand our tourism base and implement strategies to fully utilize existing infrastructure, such as The Western Financial Place. I believe in financial accountability and will ensure responsible city spending and budgets that reflect priorities of the public. We have a wealth of artistic talent within our community and I want to implement strategies to increase opportunities to highlight arts and culture in our city. My Name is Isaac Hockley and I am committed to : • reducing barriers for small business • increasing tourism • responsible city spending • increasing shows and events • increasing opportunities for the arts & culture Vote Isaac Hockley November 15th

Anna Hudson Candidate for City Council Anna Hudson (BA Honours, MPA, LL.B., LL.M.) is an educator, public administrator, legally trained researcher and advocate. Anna has over 18 years experience teaching and researching public administration, democracy, law and governance in different post-secondary institutions around the world, including the University of the Arctic, University of Saskatchewan, University of Victoria, Malaspina University-College, and Camosun College. Anna is a mom, a dragon-boat racer, and an avid cyclist. Anna has a full-time administrative position with a local child protection non-profit agency, and she also works in the Cranbrook tourism and hospitality industry. Working in the downtown core, it is easy to see a lot of visual improvements over the past year, but it is clear that Cranbrook City Council still has a lot of work to do in terms of capitalizing on our potential as a destination city, instead of a pass through city. Anna’s public policy priorities include improving Cranbrook’s infrastructure — particularly roads, water and sewage systems —while building our local economy. Most importantly she wants to increase the viability of the cycling system in this city. Her favourite areas of economic development are tourism, cultural heritage, solar energy, and social entrepreneurship.

Ron Popoff

Candidate for City Council

As an businessman and consultant, I have had an up close view of Cranbrook for 52 years. The last few years, I’ve worked on safety issues with the city trying to make it a safer city for drivers and pedestrians. My position on Council would help this, making the city a better place to live for everyone. I’ve found that there has been a bureaucratic culture that allows for not getting things done. I set out to run for Council to help remedy this situation. There are 1,000 accidents a year on our streets, costing us dearly for our insurance rates and liability to the city if they’re not in compliance with, for example, the sightline bylaw guidelines. I feel these concerns are of paramount importance, and yet are not being addressed, neither by City Council or during the current election campaign. In addition, I want to see a friendlier environment for businesses and citizens. We need to get a positive program to fix our roads and make an acceptable tax base for business and citizens by creating an environment for them to want to move to Cranbrook and to start new businesses. On November 15, vote for Brian Kostiuk for a safer, better Cranbrook.

“Help your City to Lower Taxes”. When we moved here in 2010, we determined that Cranbrook offered the best deal in BC, relative to house prices. Against our realtor’s advice, we chose to live inside the city boundary in order to pay more tax, since we thought we should contribute to the community. As you know, taxes in town are about twice those outside the city. They are about three times as high as we paid on the Coast. Are they too high in any objective sense? I believe that is for you to decide. In terms of attracting people and businesses, Cranbrook competes with every other community. Better tax rates would be a factor in future job growth for our city, not just for your children and grandchildren, but also to expand the tax base for all the things that the city desires to do, including services for seniors, which I am counting on! All of the candidates have interesting ideas, and I share many of them, but we have differing opinions about taxation. I know that lowering taxes is a choice. It should be your choice to make. Please consider making one vote in that direction.

Citizens of Cranbrook, I have lived in Cranbrook for the past fourteen years raising my children. Over the years I have engaged many people in friendly conversation and listened to your issues. At this time in my life I would like to give back to the Cranbrook Community. I am a team player with innovative ideas. My broad educational background includes a diploma in Tourism, a diploma in Fish Wildlife and Recreation Management, and Associate of Art diploma in Social Science. My background would be valuable to the position as a councillor member with an understanding of the tourism industry, knowledge of the environmental and forestry issues and respect for social diversity. Community events are what attract visitors to our city. Since our high school students need to graduate with community serve or work experience, I would like to create a volunteer day in which community groups can mentor youths. A lot of important work could be completed. This day would promote community growth, safety, health, partnership, tourism and build future leaders. Finally, I am committed to building on the positive work of previous councillors. Learning from the mistakes of past councillors and admitting to my own mistakes. Please on Election Day take the time to vote for a council which best serves the city.

Business is the cornerstone to Cranbrook’s continued growth. Business pays a higher rate of property tax than residents. So, if we want lower taxes, we need a broader business tax base. With new and prosperous business we will have sustainable jobs for our children. We can afford to grow our community with better roads and sidewalks, and support community organizations. Cranbrook has been home to Joanna and me for 25 years. During this time, we have raised two wonderful children, Laura and David. I have volunteered in their school and club activities. With my long-term community involvement with Kinsmen and now Rotary, I am addressing our community’s greatest needs through leading special projects, fundraising, collaborating with community agencies, and providing leadership on our Executive Boards. As the Health Inspector, I work with local businesses and the City to make Cranbrook a safe and healthy community. As manager of the Kootenay region, I demonstrate leadership, strategic planning, budgeting, and labour relation skills. I know how government works and how to achieve success. I have a broad perspective of what is Cranbrook today and where we need to grow in the future. Let me use my skills and experience to work for you on City Council.

Diana J. Scott

Brad Scriver

Candidate for City Council

Diana J. Scott is running for her 3rd term as councillor for the City of Cranbrook. Of all the candidates running, she is the only one with more than one term under her belt in Cranbrook. “I think it is important to have that experience, that history, especially as some of our key long-time staff either have retired or will be retiring soon”. Looking back at her election platforms from 2008 and 2011, they both focused on economic growth and the importance of being business friendly. “I have advocated on behalf of business the entire time I have been in office”. Having said that, Scott is not a one issue person. She believes council also has to invest in things that will give Cranbrook residents a great quality of life, like parks and trails. She also believes council needs to stay focused on council issues and not try to be everything to everyone. Scott came to Cranbrook in 2000 to work as the morning news anchor at The Drive / B104 radio station. She currently runs two businesses. Scott is looking to turn her 6 years at council into 10, with your support. She asks for your vote November 15th.

I was born and raised by a family that has spanned five generations in the Cranbrook area. I have also been involved with business in this community for the last nineteen years. With sixteen years of civil construction experience, I feel that I am uniquely qualified to understand the issues and the solutions to Cranbrook’s infrastructure problems. This experience has also given me insight into the current drought of affordable housing in Cranbrook and what could be done to reduce housing costs. In addition, I am very concerned with economic growth in our region. I believe that rather then putting up endless hurdles and roadblocks for new businesses or for existing business expansions, let’s be innovative and work towards solutions to increase business growth in our area. Increased business not only creates jobs but increases our business tax base, which in turn benefits the entire community. I feel strongly that our city needs to strive to be more efficient and embrace equality for all its citizens and businesses. I believe that honesty, hard work, and equality are the fundamentals for any successful endeavor. Given the opportunity, it would be my honor and privilege to bring my experience, values, and ethics to the council on behalf of the citizens of Cranbrook.

Tom Shypitka Candidate for City Council As a long term (4th Generation) Cranbrook resident and business owner for the last 33 years, I am a firm believer that Cranbrook has a bright future. However, we are now faced with making some of the most important decisions we will ever need to make as a community that will ultimately drive forward the direction of future generations. My approach to representing Cranbrook is one that includes transparency, accountability and involvement from all points of view that focus on these core issues: • Attract skilled doctors and develop health programs. • Grow tourism and promote what our beautiful city has to offer. • Deal with the increasing problem with poverty and disadvantaged children. • Execute an economic plan that will increase our tax base without increasing taxes. • Support our local businesses in a way that will help our City to prosper in a fiercely competitive global marketplace. • Fix and develop infrastructure (roads, sewer, water). • Foster and grow a vibrant arts and entertainment culture. If you have opinions and ideas and you want your voice heard about the future direction of our great City, vote me, Tom Shypitka for Cranbrook City Council and your concerns and ideas will become part of the decision making process.

Gerry Warner Candidate for City Council As an independent watchdog seeking re-election to City Council, I will continue to hold the City to account on every decision it makes whether it’s roads, urban deer, taxes or services. The same applies for the environment, arts and culture, the disabled, youth and the working poor. Good decision making is critical. We can’t have councillors that are partial to special interest groups, political parties or are afraid to say no to City staff when they make a wrong decision. That’s not in the best interests of the citizenry. I think our city government improved the past term. There was more discussion and debate and less use of the rubber stamp. But I also think we can do better and I’m prepared to help Council to do better by scrutinizing every issue to ensure it will benefit as many or our citizens as possible and help our city to prosper as a growing and caring community where everyone can achieve their potential through a caring government at City Hall. On November 15 I urge you to put an “X” beside Gerry Warner and any others that you think will give Cranbrook the good government it deserves.

Scientists figure warmer, wetter world increases lightning zaps Seth Borenstein ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Lightning strikes in the United States will likely increase by nearly 50 per cent by the end of the century as the world gets warmer and wetter, a new study says. While those conditions were already known to promote thunderstorms in general, the new work focused on lightning strikes themselves. Researchers calculated just how much lightning flashes increase as air warms, clouds fill with more energy from water vapour and rainfall intensifies. They concluded that for every degree Fahrenheit the world warms in the future, lightning strikes will go up nearly 7 per cent. That’s 12 per cent for every degree Celsius. Because scientists forecast that the world may get about 7 degrees warmer (4 degrees Celsius) by the end of the century, based on cur-

rent carbon dioxide emission trends, that comes to a 50 per cent increase in lightning strikes, said David Romps. He’s the atmospheric scientist at the University of California Berkeley who led the study. “When you used to have two lightning strikes, now you’ll have three,” Romps said. “It’s a substantial increase.” The researchers based their calculation on 2011 weather data from across the U.S. They presented their results in a paper released Thursday by the journal Science. Romps said the key is that warmer air holds more water vapour. Water vapour is fuel for thunderstorms, sparking more lightning. The energy that storms get from vapour is the biggest driver in increasing lightning strikes in the future, Romps said. The new study shows that at any given level of rainfall intensity, there will be more lightning in the future.

It took a set of retro-looking images to reawaken the world’s sense of wonder about space exploration. The black-and-white pictures of a rocky surface sent back from a comet hundreds of millions of miles away are the product of an astonishing feat of science and some sophisticated imaging technology. But for millions gazing at them with excited awe, the response that the dusty grey rocks and pitch-dark shadows provoke is almost primal. It’s space as we imagined it in earliest childhood - deep and dark, harsh and alien and with the Philae lander, humanity has made a fragile foothold on it. That feeling is perfectly captured in one image, an interplanetary selfie, in which one of the lander’s three feet is visible in the corner of the shot. To be sure, the science is impressive. These crisp images have come from 311 million miles (500 mil-

lion kilometres) away. The washing machine-sized lander has a close-up camera on its underside and is also mounted with seven high-definition micro-cameras, each weighing just 3.5 ounces (100 grams), designed to endure temperatures as low as minus 238 Fahrenheit (minus 150 Celsius), and arranged to capture 360-degree panoramas of the comet’s surface. (Some of the pictures released by the European Space Agency have been composites of several images.) But our reaction is about more than scientific appreciation. The stark and elegant pictures cut through the usual space-exploration imagery of rockets and gadgets and flashing lights and take us back to the early blackand-white sci-fi movies many of us remember seeing. Scientists said Thursday that Philae appeared to have landed in the shadow of a cliff and may not be getting enough sunlight to recharge its solar panels.

33 per year in the last decade. So far this year 25 people have been killed, NOAA data shows. Brooks said the drop is because of people changing their behaviour to be safer in storms and better medical treatment of lightning victims. Michael Mann, a Pennsylvania State University climate scientist, said this study “is yet another reminder that there are likely some unwelcome surprises in store ... when it comes to the impacts of climate change.”

Harold Brooks, a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration severe storm meteorologist, said the study makes sense and marks an advance over previous work. The result is important mostly because it means more natural sparks for dangerous wildfires, which are already forecast to worsen with man-made warming, Romps, Brooks and other meteorologists said. Lightning deaths have been falling from about 100 per year in the 1960s and 1970s to

The last time the Calgary Hitmen visited Western Financial Place, it wasn’t a pretty sight. Despite the returns of sniper Tim Bozon and blue-liner Rinat Valiev to the Kootenay Ice lineup, the visitors walked all over the hosts en route to a 9-2 victory. “Last game, it was like 2-1 with eight minutes [to play] in the second [period],” said Kootenay Ice alternate captain Jaedon Descheneau Thursday afternoon prior to practice. “I don’t know what happened but, we’ll be fine. We’ve just got to play our game plan and do what we’ve been doing the last three games when we’ve been winning and things will turn out.” In fact, the Ice trailed the Hitmen 2-1 up until the 15:38 mark of the second period. With less than five minutes to go

in the period, Calgary forward Adam Tambellini scored, kick-starting a three-goal run for the Hitmen over the course of 1:53 and the visitors took a 5-1 advantage to the dressing room at the second intermission. Hitmen forward Greg Chase led the onslaught with two goals and two assists the last time around, but he won’t be a factor after requesting a trade out of Calgary Nov. 6. Russian import Radel Fazleev chipped in with a goal and two assists. The loss to the Hitmen marked the fourth in what eventually stretched to a seven-game skid for the Kootenay Ice. Since breaking the losing run with a 6-5 overtime win over the Lethbridge Hurricanes Nov. 1, the Ice have turned a corner, rattling off three consecutive victories as they try to claw their

The Hitmen came away from Cranbrook with a 9-2 victory Oct. 24. way back into the WHL’s competitive Central Division conversation. Though the hole may have been deep, it isn’t insurmountable. While the Medicine Hat Tigers (14-3-1-0, 29 points) have a healthy lead on the rest of the competition in the Central Division, the Hitmen (10-80-2, 22 points), Edmonton Oil Kings (10-8-0-2, 22 points), Red Deer Rebels (9-8-2-1, 21

Hit the open road Dynamiters set out on three-game swing through Interior Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor

The Kimberley Dynamiters are hoping a little road trip will help them get back into the win column this weekend. After dropping consecutive games to the Fernie Ghostriders and Princeton Posse last weekend, the Nitros hit the highway for a threegame swing through the Interior, beginning Friday night in Kelowna,

before moving along to Princeton and wrapping up Sunday afternoon in Summerland. The Dynamiters will make the trip without their bench boss Jerry Bancks, who will miss the weekend festivities due to personal reasons. He will be back behind the bench when the Dynamiters return home to host the Spokane Braves Thursday, Nov. 20. In the meantime, as-

sistant coach Jeff Keiver will take over. “We have to have everyone playing to the best of their ability, especially when you play three [games] in three [nights],” Bancks said Thursday afternoon. “We’re going to be short a few players this weekend, so it’s going to require other players stepping up. Some players are going to get a chance to play a bigger role and

points) and Lethbridge Hurricanes (5-10-3-1, 14 points) are well within striking distance with 53 games remaining on the slate for the Ice. “Every game is important right now,” said forward Luke Philp following last Saturday’s shootout victory over the Swift Current Broncos. “Our division is really tough this year, it usually is.” Starting Friday

against the Hitmen, the Ice play five consecutive games against Central Division opponents, a critical opportunity to get back into the mix. “We have to shoot the puck and we have to score [by] getting rebounds,” Valiev said prior to practice Thursday afternoon. “We didn’t score on a lot of our chances last game [against Calgary]. Right now, we have a better

they need to step up to the plate.” While it remains to be seen who will be the one to grab the proverbial bull by the horns this weekend, goaltender Tyson Brouwer returns to anchor the Dynamiters between the pipes. He is expected to start Friday night against the Kelowna Chiefs. Brouwer last played Oct. 29 in Creston Valley where he suffered an MCL sprain in overtime against the Thunder Cats. The 19-year-old Lethbridge native posted stellar numbers prior to getting hurt, going 104-0 with a 2.98 goals-

against average and one shutout in 14 games. While Brouwer returns, it appears as though defenceman James Jowsey (undisclosed) and forward Jesse Wallace (strep throat) will join forward Jordan Roy (collar bone) and defenceman Tristan Pagura (shoulder) on the shelf this weekend. “The biggest thing is staying focused and taking it shift by shift,” Bancks said of the challenges his team will face this weekend. “If you show up on Friday and you look at the big picture and you look beyond your next shift,

team with a lot of guys back from injury and Sam [Reinhart] back. We’re all in.” After hosting the Hitmen Friday night, the Ice travel across the Alberta border to take on the Lethbridge Hurricanes Saturday night before returning home for a Nov. 19 date with the Medicine Hat Tigers. The Ice are expected to get centre Kyle O’Connor back into the lineup

this weekend. The 6-foot-2 Calgary product missed both outings last weekend with a lower-body injury. Still on the mend is right-winger Jon Martin, who is expected to miss another one to two weeks with an upper-body injury. Bruising defenceman Tanner Faith also remains out for the next two to four weeks with an upper-body injury.

International impressions Descheneau & Valiev hope to have left marks ahead of World Juniors

Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor

Though many view the CHL Subway Super Series as a bit of a throwback to the legendary days of lore when the Soviet Union’s Red Army and Team Canada battled for international hockey supremacy, it meant a lot more than just nostalgia for Kootenay Ice forward Jaedon Descheneau and defenceman Rinat Valiev. “It’s a lot of fun playing with the best players from your league,” Descheneau said prior to Kootenay Ice practice Thursday afternoon. “You really get to see what other players do and learn from them. “It’s a good experience.” With the 2015 IIHF World Junior Championship on the horizon, the CHL Subway Super Series provides one last gasp for major junior hockey players to get their name into the conversation, if it isn’t already there. Descheneau, a 19-year-old fifth-round selection (124th overall,

2014) of the St. Louis Blues, was left off the Team Canada development camp roster this past summer. After a 98point campaign in 201314, the 5-foot-9 spitfire has put up eight goals and 16 points through 17 games this season in hopes of landing his name on the radar of Team Canada brass. “I played more physical and made sure I was better in my [defensive] zone,” Descheneau said. “I think I did the best I could and hopefully I get an invite to camp in December.” The Edmonton native suited up in both games for Team WHL this past Monday and Tuesday. In a 3-2 shootout loss to the Russians in Saskatoon, the shifty Descheneau was looked to in the shootout by head coach Dave Lowry, ahead of the likes of 2014 first-round picks Conner Bleackley and Jake Virtanen. “They gave me an opportunity and they upped my ice throughout both games,” Descheneau said. “I started playing more in the second game, played a little power-play time and I was on the ice with a minute left trying to score to tie the game up.” With 11 eligible returners from Team Canada’s entry at the 2014 World Junior Championship, including Kootenay Ice teammate Sam Reinhart, getting

an opportunity to don the Maple Leaf remains a difficult one for Descheneau, but it’s alive nonetheless. On the other side of the ice, 6-foot-2 defenceman Rinat Valiev hopes he did enough to convince Team Russia general manager Alexei Kochetkov that he is worthy of joining the Russians in search of international glory this December. “It’s last chance to show my game before the world juniors,” Valiev said Thursday afternoon prior to Kootenay Ice practice. “Coach will decide [if] he will invite me to the camp or not. “I think I played okay, but I know I can be better.” Valiev, a 2014 thirdround pick (68th overall) of the Toronto Maple Leafs, participated in Team Russia’s summer development camp, so he has a bit more of a leg up on the situation than Descheneau. That being said, the Russians invited 11 defencemen to the Super Series, including Brandon Wheat Kings stud Ivan Provorov, who is eligible for the 2015 NHL Entry Draft. With that many blue-liners in the mix, nothing is a given for the 19-year-old Valiev, who is focused on getting up to speed in hopes his play with the Ice over the coming weeks will help solidify his position.

“I have to work hard, play every game hard, show myself,” Valiev added. After missing the first 12 games of the year due to a lower-body injury, the native of Nizhnekamsk has impressed since his return to the Kootenay Ice lineup. With two goals and eight points in seven games, Valiev has helped steady both the transition game and power play for the Kootenay Ice. “It was a little bit tough for me,” Valiev said of the pace at the Super Series. “The speed was really high. I just started playing [after recovering from injury] so it was a little bit tough to get going, but I’m happy to win two games.” Valiev suited up for Team Russia in both games against Team WHL, registering zero points and a minus-1 rating. Team Canada’s selection camp roster for the 2015 edition of the annual junior championship is expected to be announced in early December. Toronto and Montreal play host to the 2015 IIHF World Junior Championship. A Canadian holiday tradition, the tournament fires up Dec. 26, when Team Russia opens the tournament against Denmark while Team Canada faces off against Slovakia.

Sens’ GM Murray diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer C anadian Press

Ottawa Senators general manager Bryan Murray revealed that he has Stage 4 cancer in an interview on TSN that aired Thursday night. Murray had said that he had cancer in a statement on July 7, but the severity of his illness was not made public at that time. The statement is-

sued through the Senators said he would begin treatment immediately. “There is no cure at this point for me,” Murray told TSN on Thursday. “The word is that we’ll keep doing chemo and hopefully reduce the tumours and the effect and I’ll get some time out of that.” Murray said he was

diagnosed on June 23, though doctors believe he has been living with the disease for years. “The doctor told me very matter of factly that I had cancer. I had colon cancer within my liver and I had some in my lung. That it was very serious and that I had to get into treatment right away,” said Murray.

Why I will vote this weekend

was appalled and horrified this past week when I read a story that came out of Fort Lauderdale. It appears that 90–year–old homeless advocate Arnold Abbott and two South Florida ministers were accused of breaking a new ordinance passed by the city which severely restricts publicly feeding homeless people in Fort Lauderdale. The city believes the sight of the homeless is affecting tourism, nearby businesses and tarnishing the city’s image. So they passed an ordinance against feeding homeless people. Abbott runs a nonprofit group called Love Thy Neighbour, Inc. He and his charity have fed the homeless at a beachfront location for over 20 years. The two ministers, Dwayne Black and Mark Sims, were working with Abbott as they handed out food to homeless people in a Fort

Lauderdale park. All three face up to 60 days in jail, and a $500 fine. Abbott told a television reporter, “One of the police officers said, ‘Drop that plate right now,’ as if I were carrying a weapon. It’s man’s inhumanity to man is all it is.” All three have said that they will continue to feed the homeless, both in local churches and in public areas. “I don’t do things to purposefully aggravate the situation,” said Abbott. “I’m trying to work with the city. Any human has the right to help his fellow man.” The city’s mayor, Jack Seiler, explains that they have been trying to clean up a park which is adjacent to the city library which has become a haven for dozens of homeless people. Fort Lauderdale isn’t alone in trying this kind of tactic. The National Coalition for the Homeless in the USA

Rev. Yme

Woensdregt reports that in the past two years, more than 30 cities have tried to introduce similar laws. In addition to banning public feeding, laws also ban people from leaving their belongings unattended and outlaw panhandling at medians. Abbott, and other advocates for the poor and the homeless, agree that there is a problem which needs to be addressed, but that legal steps like this simply don’t work. They have the effect of further victimizing the poorest of the poor, who have nothing and who have nowhere to go. The situation is made worse in that many of the

homeless are military veterans whose lives have been shattered by their service to their nation in conflict zones around the world. I am reminded of an action taken in Cranbrook by the Ministerial several years ago. There had been an outcry about the number of homeless people on our streets. The homeless were being rousted from places they found to sleep at night. In an effort both to understand the plight of those who are homeless, and to create a deeper awareness throughout our city, local ministers and pastors and church members stayed overnight in Rotary Park on an April night. I acknowledge that our effort was a tiny thing, but even so it was a humbling experience for all who took part in it. When I hear stories like this, it makes me appreciate more deeply the profound responsibility and privilege

we have to elect people to serve us in government. In every election, we have an opportunity to shape the kind of community in which we wish to live. Gandhi reminded us that “the true measure of any society can be found in how it treats its most vulnerable members.” Others have said similar things. In his last speech, Hubert Humphrey said that “the moral test of government is how that government treats those who are in the dawn of life, the children; those who are in the twilight of life, the elderly; those who are in the shadows of life; the sick, the needy and the handicapped.” The problems of homelessness and economic inequality are huge problems. There are no easy solutions. But the kind of attack shown in the passing of bylaws such as this shows a lack of compassion for the most vulnera-

ble among us. They don’t even come close to addressing the deep underlying issues of such a huge problem. We have an opportunity this weekend to cast our vote. Our vote says what kind of city we wish to create in this place. For me, economic issues are important, but they are not the only important issues. How we treat people, how we deal with those who have nothing, how we live together with compassion and grace are equally important issues in shaping the future of this city we all love. The people whom we elect are called to serve us. They serve all of us, not just those with money and power and influence. This weekend, I will cast my vote for the ones I think will serve us best.

There’s more than one way to skin a book

racticarum quaestionum circa leges regias Hispaniae (Practical Questions about the Laws of the King of Spain) is one of the older books residing in Harvard’s Law Library, having been published in 1605. Although Harvard has over 200,000 items in its Law Library’s rare book room, this one is of particular interest, due to an inscription found on the book’s last page: “The bynding of this booke is all that remains of my dear friende Jonas Wright … it being one of poore Jonas chiefe possessions, together with ample of his skin to bynd it. Requiescat in pace.” That’s right, this 400-year-old book of Spanish law was so dear to Jonas Wright, that his friend had it bound in Wright’s own skin. Gruesome, to say the least. But is it true? Anthropodermic bibliopegy is the scientific name of binding books in human skin. While numerous books throughout history have been thought to have been bound this way, many academics thought (or at least hoped) this practice was a myth. Modern DNA evidence has recently proven that cer-

BOOKNOTES

Mike Selby tain books are indeed covered in human epidermis. Yuk. One is A True and Perfect Relation of the Whole Proceedings Against the Late Most Barbarous Traitors, Garnet a Jesuit and His Confederates, which details Father Henry Garnet’s role in the 1605 Gunpowder Plot. Executed in 1606, Garnet’s skin was used to bind a book about his crimes. A pattern of wear spots on this books cover resemble Father’s Garnet’s face, which only makes this creepy item creepier. The Boston Athenaeum (an independent public library) has a copy of Narrative of the Life of James Allen, alias Jonas Pierce, alias James H. York, alias Burley Grove, the Highwayman, Being His Death-bed Confession to the Warden of the Massachusetts State Prison, another book

bound in human skin. James Allen himself requested that after his execution in 1837 a copy of his memoirs be bound in own skin. Request granted. Exeter’s Westcounty Studies Library owns a copy of The Poetical Works of John Milton, bound in the what used to be George Cudmore’s skin, before he was executed for poisoning his wife in 1852. Below the title page of this book a note states whose skin was used to bound this work, and why. Records show Cudmore’s body was sent to a medical school for use; it is unknown how his skin came to adorn a book. Around the same time and place, a teenager named John Horwood threw a rock at his ex-girlfriend, hitting her in the the right temple. Taken to the hospital, she was examined by a senior surgeon named Richard Smith. Dr. Smith felt the only treatment was to drill a hole into her skull to relieve the swelling. After the poor girl died, Horwood was hung for her murder. Smith refused to let Horwood’s family bury him, deciding to bind a book of his own poetry with Horwood’s skin instead. (This book, which still contained the tanner’s invoice in it, was kept at

the Bristol Records Office until 2011, when Horwood’s great-greatgreat-grandniece was allowed to bury his remains.) Which brings us

back to Jonas Wright and his book of Spanish laws. Just to be sure, Harvard submitted the book to cutting edge peptide mass fingerprinting analysis last

April. The results confirmed that their copy of Practicarum quaestionum circa leges regias Hispaniae is indeed bound by the skin of Jonas Wright.

Providing Jonas Wright was a sheep.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You know you could handle a difficult encounter, but you might prefer to avoid it. If you can, leave work early in order to maximize the moment. Your fun and lively personality is likely to make others look forward to greeting the weekend. Tonight: Play the night away. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Recognize how much you need to do and how much you are willing to do. Your awareness of a loved one’s desire for your help might encourage you to be more available. Someone you deal with regularly could be difficult. Help this person figure out a solution. Tonight: Head home. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Your words this morning will make others smile. Do not start a deep conversation with someone who seems relatively depressed. You could find it difficult, but know that it’s necessary to let this person work through his or her problem without your help. Tonight: TGIF!

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You have much more going for you than you might realize. Listen to someone’s ideas about your finances. You might want to take a gamble, but you also could be concerned with the risk. Remain direct in your dealings. Tonight: Treat a friend to munchies. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You’ll get what you want, but part of what you receive could be disappointing. Perhaps your expectations have been too high. Regardless, you quickly will see the right path, so you aren’t likely to experience a letdown. Tonight: Your charm and magnetism attract many people. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Continue to maintain a low profile if you want to keep the peace while gaining information. Someone who says little might make you and others feel uneasy. Be direct in what you say, but try to avoid any conflicts at this point. Tonight: Follow your instincts. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Tundra

You will want to brainstorm with a creative friend who tends to think outside the box. This person might not come up with a conclusive statement or idea immediately, but just give him or her some time. You’ll be pleased with the outcome. Tonight: Find a reason to celebrate. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Your determination helps you plow a path to success. Others could find you to be somewhat distant at the moment. Don’t be surprised if you get some odd responses from friends. Hold up the mirror to understand their reactions. Tonight: Someone is delighted to see you! SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Make a point of finding an expert. You might benefit from speaking with a source who often is filled with suggestions. However, you also could be overwhelmed by the seemingly endless chatter. Be grateful for the ideas. Tonight: Consider taking off for the weekend. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Those close to you might be overwhelming in how they want

to run the show. Free yourself up for a less demanding pace. One key person will let you know that you are indispensable by the end of the day! Tonight: Out with a favorite person. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You’ll accept a lot of responsibilities, but the pressure might be very difficult to handle. Friends will want to help, but they are likely to need some direction from you. Rarely are others so available to be at your beck and call. Enjoy the moment! Tonight: Clear your desk first. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You could be blocked when reaching out to someone. Watch a tendency to take this person’s unavailability personally, as it could be a communication problem. Remain confident and direct. Tonight: Off to the gym, then decide.

Rhymes with Orange

By Hillary B. Price

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: Our neighbor “Ellen” is having an 80th birthday party for her husband. She has invited about 40 people, including my husband and me and the “Smiths,” another couple who are neighbors. We’ve had many disagreements in the past where the Smiths have yelled and sworn at us. Now we ignore them. Ellen told me we could come over to her home for the party anytime, but had to leave by 2:00 because the Smiths would be coming over then. Mr. Smith plays guitar and will be entertaining. Is it right for her to ask us to leave? We are mature and reasonable people, and we could certainly leave on our own if we felt the need. My husband and the birthday celebrant are friends, whereas Mr. Smith is an acquaintance. But Mrs. Smith is friends with Ellen. What should we do? My heart tells me to make an excuse not to attend, but common sense tells me it would cause more problems if we did that. What do you think of such an invite? Should we go? -- Unwanted Friends Dear Friends: What nerve. Ellen was rude to tell you that you have to leave the party when the Smiths arrive. Does she perhaps think they will cause a scene? Did they ask that you not be there? No guest should be telling the hosts whom to invite. Ellen should have invited both of you, without restrictions, and let the chips fall. It would show tremendous grace on your part to show up at this party. Dear Annie: We are writing to ask what we can do about the way our son’s family talks. They have foul mouths. Whenever we phone, we can hear them in the background yelling about something and using the F-word rather liberally. Even our highschool-age grandson speaks the same way. We’ve asked our son and his wife whether they try to correct the kids, and he says everybody talks this way and to get used to it. How do we speak up and let them know we have had enough of their toilet mouths? -- Ohio Dear Ohio: What they do in their own home is not your business, even if you can hear them in the background when you call. And if Mom and Dad have potty mouths, it is expected that their children will, as well. They don’t realize the handicap they are giving their kids by not teaching them how to control their language. All you can do is ask, as a sign of respect, that they not use such vulgarities when speaking directly to you. We hope they can manage at least that much. Dear Annie: This is in response to the letter from “Stressed and Nervous,” the stepmother who has no relationship with her adult stepchildren. Here is the flip side: Our stepmother, a lovely woman, came into our family after my siblings and I were grown. While we never had a close bond, we included her in all of our life events. Most importantly, our children considered her to be their grandmother. When Dad died, we all mourned together. For the next couple of years, we regularly invited “Grandma” to all family events. However, she soon began saying it was inconvenient for her to come and would rebuff any attempt we made to make it easier, such as picking her up or having her stay with us. She hasn’t invited her grandchildren over since my father died. She didn’t attend graduations or send birthday greetings. At first, our children were hurt, but five years later, they no longer care. I still call several times a year, but it’s like dropping a coin down a well. She has a large extended family of her own, and when I call them to ask whether she’s OK, they say I need not worry. It’s sad she has distanced herself. She is part of 20 years of family memories. -- Dismissed Stepdaughter Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

extends to the advertiser. Fifty-nine percent of Web users agree that online advertising is more believable from a trusted Web site. Online, newspaper Web sites are the dominant local media site in most markets.

3. Targeted: If you want to focus on a particular backyard, advertising in an online newspaper is more personal, and more relevant because it is local. Newspapers also publish a plethora of niche sites (youth, women, movie fans, seniors, are illustrative) for virtually any demographic advertisers could possibly hope to reach. 4. Purchasing power: Sixty-two percent of newspaper

Web site users purchase online compared with 49 percent of general users. Thirty-nine percent of online newspaper users have incomes higher than $75,000; 65 percent own their homes. Fifty percent of online newspaper users have spent more than $500 online in the last six months, and 63 percent of online newspaper users prefer to find out about new products through the Internet.

5. Content: After e-mail, the most preferred Web

content is news, sports, financial information, entertainment news, and shopping â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in that order. Sixtytwo percent of Internet users visit online newspapers for local news, compared with 39 percent for the local TV station Web site and 23 percent for the local radio station site. Not even Yahoo! or AOLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Digital City can top this.

6. Retailers prefer newspaper sites: Sixty-five percent of retailers report that newspaper sites are efficient in assisting them in meeting marketing needs compared with other sites.

7. High profile: Research.net reports that, among top executives (CEO, CIO, CFO or owner/partner), Internet advertising ranked above over all other media measured for: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Where I prefer to find our about new products,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Where I prefer to receive information about companies,â&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Where modern, up-to-date brands advertise.â&#x20AC;? At the same time, these early adopters of technology also skew younger than the traditional newspaper audience. Forty percent of online newspaper users are aged 18-35. 8. Reinforcement: Seventy-six percent of online newspaper users also read the newspaper in the past seven days, and repetition increases awareness. The Internet Advertising Bureau found that, by increasing the number of online banners from one to two per week, branding results on three key metrics increased 42 percent making online a great, inexpensive way to increase the branding lift of traditional campaigns. 9. Quality: Seventy-five percent of advertisers generally said newspaper Web sitesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; advertising was as good or better than other Internet sites.

10. Mix: A variety of recent studies have demonstrated the power of online, when included in a mix with traditional media, to elaborate the brand message. Newspaper print and online products combined have the highest penetration and most desirable audience of any other local medium. SOURCE: Newspaper Association of America
