Kimberley elects new mayor C A R O LYN G R A N T Daily Bulletin
A jubilant Don McCormick accepted congratulations from supporters at the Kimberley Elks Club Saturday night as the news came in at just before 9 p.m. that he was the newly elected Mayor of Kimberley. Elected or re-elected to City Council (in order of votes) are Sandra Roberts, Kent Goodwin, Darryl Oakley, Albert Hoglund, Nigel Kitto and Bev Middlebrook. “It was a hard day,” McCormick said. “It was probably the most anxious day I have spent
in a long, long time. “It’s a relief. It’s very emotional. I feel really, really good for my team. They worked so hard.” McCormick says he felt he had support from across the community, not any particular groups. “I feel grateful.” McCormick says he believes the new Council will be a strong group. “We are going to have a great Council. I am really, really looking forward to working with them. There’s so much to
do, I feel like we need to start Monday morning.” Preliminary numbers are as follows: Don McCormick,1301; Ron McRae, 1142; Doug Johnson, 181 Councillors: Sandra Roberts, 1898; Kent Goodwin, 1853; Darryl Oakley, 1817; Albert Hoglund,1601; Nigel Kitto, 1492; and Bev Middlebrook,1447. Those six are elected. Darren Close had 1407 votes and Brent Bush, 1340. This was the first time the
City of Kimberley made use of automated voting machines and the count went quickly and without a hitch on Saturday evening. Instead of waiting until midnight for hand-counting as in previous years, results were tabulated before 9 p.m. Chief Election Officer and Corporate Officer for the City of Kimberley, Kelly Harms, said, “We are pleased to see that the community embraced automated voting.”
See KIMBERLEY, Page 3
In a dramatic evening of politics, Cranbrook elected an entirely new City Council, including the office of mayor. Preliminary results showed Candidate Lee Pratt defeated incumbent mayor Wayne Stetski, 3396 votes to 2192. John York received 144 votes in his third run at the mayor’s seat. The referendum question on the ballot — “Are you in favour of Council adopting the City of Cranbrook cease-fluoridation bylaw No. 3799, 2014, which authorizes stopping the addition of fluoride to the municipal water supply effective January 1, 2015?” — was defeated 2,794 to 2,473. Election night featured Cranbrook’s first use of automatic voting machines. Preliminary results were available two hours after the polls closed Saturday night. “I feel really good,” said Mayor Elect Lee Pratt, at a campaign party at the Heritage Inn. “One thing I really feel good about is the numbers that came out, the people who came out to vote and I liked this year that there were some younger councillors there. They got the younger vote out. I think that’s really good when you can get the youth involved, because that’s the future of our town and they’re starting to get involved now.” The results were stunning in several respects. Besides the mayor, the three incumbent candidates finished out of the running — Diana J. Scott, Sharon Cross and Gerry Warner, though Cross’s

seventh place was a near run thing to Wesly Graham’s sixth spot, 1,984 votes to Cross’s 1,959. Cross had actually pulled ahead when the mail-in results were counted. The new Council is also notable for its relative youth. Tom Shypitka (3,191 votes), Ron Popoff (2,714), Isaac Hockley (2,289), Danielle Cardozo (2,219), Norma Blissett (2,194) and Wesly Graham (1,984) will take their seats at Cranbrook City Hall at the next Council meeting December 8, 2014. Mayor Lee Pratt will preside. “I think it looks good,” Pratt said of the Council. “There’s some good diversity on there, there’s some younger people and of course they’re going to have some good viewpoints. They want Cranbrook to progress and grow too, so they’re going to be along the lines of getting things on track here. “I think the diversity of it is good. There’s business representation, there’s arts and culture and it’s just a good diverse council and I think we can work well together.”

Voting machines sped up the process Barry Coulter
The use of the new automatic voting machines for the first time in a Cranbrook election made a profound difference in the tabulation of results. The polls closed at 8 p.m. at Laurie Middle School, and final (preliminary) results were posted around 10 p.m. This included the ballots from Saturday’s election day itself, mailin and special ballots, and the approximately 2,000 ballots from the advance polls. The results of these categories were posted as they were tabulated, making for a dramatic two hours for those assembled in the Laurie
School gym — election workers, media, and several of the candidates. “I think it went well,” said Brian Wooff, Chief Electoral Officer for the City of Cranbrook, of election day and the use of the machines and the new type of paper ballots. “We were really busy for about six hours straight, but the workers worked hard and we got through it. There were some line ups in the middle of the day, but we cleared them out pretty quick.” Twenty-five workers took care of voters throughout the day, with another half dozen who came in to provide
relief for meal breaks and such. And by all accounts, the new machines and ballots went over quite well. “I really like it,” Wooff said of the new process. “The people seemed to like the ballots, no one complained about the ballots themselves. “And the fact that there’s no having to rely on eyes, after being awake for 16 hours, is a good thing.” Preliminary results from the City of Cranbrook indicate that voter turnout was about 39 per cent, up from 33 per cent in the previous election in 2011.

Cranbrook votes for fluoridation, Area C director, School Board Trustees; Voter turnout at 39% Barry Coulter
Preliminary results from Saturday’s municipal election indicate voter turnout was 39 per cent in Cranbrook, up from 2011’s 33 per cent. Out of an estimated 14,819 eligible voters, 5,786 ended up casting ballots. Voters in Cranbrook cast ballots in several categories — Mayor,
City Council, School District 5 Trustee, and RDEK Director for Area C. School District Trustee preliminary results are as follows: Patricia Whalen (1930 votes), Doug McPhee (1688), Chris Johns (1791), Gail Brown (1722), Trina Ayling (1705). McPhee is the new face on the board, taking over the
seat from Olivia Besanger who didn’t run this election. RDEK Area C director Rob Gay was re-elected with 543 votes over challenger Don Flowers, who garnered 215 votes. The referendum qustion on the ballot was whether to discontinue the fluoridation of the Cranbrook water sup-
ply. (“Are you in favour of Council adopting City of Cranbrook Cease Fluoridation Bylaw No. 3799, 2014, which authorizes stopping the addition of fluoride to the municipal water supply effective January 1, 2015?”) 2794 voted against, 2473 voted in favour. Fluoridation will continue.
Kimberley gets new mayor Continued from page 1
One of the advantages of the automated machines was the ability to catch spoiled ballots immediately. If someone, for example, voted for seven Councillors instead of six, the machine picks it up as soon as the ballot is entered. This allows the voter the chance to vote again. Voter turnout was in the 50 per cent range, which is high for municipal elections, although Kimberley is usually above the aver-
age. Of the 5,358 of eligible electors, 49 per cent participated in the election. The average municipal voter turnout in the province is approximately 33 per cent. Of the total number of ballots cast (2365) there were 23 Non-Resident Property Electors and 165 new registered voters that cast ballots in the 2014 Kimberley municipal election. “We are satisfied with the voter turnout this year,” said Harms.

Pratt ran his campaign based on fiscal responsibility. “I think people liked the financial responsibility and I think we have to get back on that track and of course, the rest is economic development. We have to broaden our tax base and if we get more industry and more people living here, that’s going to happen and that’ll help our economy. “If we broaden our tax base, that’s going to free up more money for the roads and infrastructure, which is in bad need of repair.” The new Councillors spoke to the Townsman Saturday, and all expressed appreciation, gratitude and respect for the democratic process that had just unfolded. “I’m very excited and overwhelmed, and in awe of the results,” said Dan-
ielle Cardozo. “I’m thankful to the community for voting me in, I’m thankful to my supporters who helped share my platform, and I’m really looking forward to working with the new council and our new mayor.” “I’m thrilled that I was able to become one of the councillors that will hopefully lead Cranbrook into the future for the next four years,” said Ron Popoff. “I say to all of the residents of Cranbrook that voted that I’m going to be looking at governance for the entirety of our population, and that I’m really humbled and honoured by this opportunity to help lead Cranbrook.” “I was pleased with the campaign that we ran,” said Norma Blissett. “I thought we did a good job — we had to fly around ahead of the ad-

vance polls, and the signs up in town and good coverage. “I’m surprised by tonight’s results.” Blissett continued. “I thought the incumbents would be re-elected and there would be three new councillors, which I had hoped to be one of. “But anyway, the people have spoken, and as you know, in democracy, the people are always right. “So we will forge ahead, all of us figuring it out together.” “I think Cranbrook made a statement tonight,” Shypitka said, who with 3,191 votes was almost 500 votes ahead of the next nearest candidate. “Obviously there was something in the air that a change needed to come.

China probably will. The United implication, then start to decline). That looks a bit lopsided, of course, but States probably won’t. The Chinese regime knows what global any deal that takes account of current real-
warming will do to the country if it is not contained. A study commissioned by the World Bank about a decade ago, but never published (quite likely at China’s insistence), concluded that if average global temperature rises by 2 degrees C, China will lose about 38 percent of its food production. As in all predictions of this sort, that number may be wrong by five or even ten percentage points, but that doesn’t really matter. Even a 28 percent loss of food production would mean semi-permanent famine in China. The regime would not survive that, and much of the growth that has been achieved by great sacrifice in the past three decades would be lost. Beijing takes climate change VERY seriously. Even though the regime must also keep the economic growth going if it wishes to survive, it knows that it must start making real concessions on emissions in order to facilitate a global deal. Xi did not set this target of capping Chinese emissions by 2030 without a great deal of discussion and debate within the regime. Having made the promise, he will keep it. So will his successors, at least so long as the Communist Party goes on ruling China. Whereas Obama will be gone in two years, and cannot bind his successors to keep his promise in any way. The Chinese know this, of course, but they are so desperate to get matters moving on the climate front that they are willing to take a chance that the deal will survive.

National Child Day in Canada turns 21
N
Frankie Seitz
ovember 20, 2014 is a special day for anyone who has ever been, or is, a child. It marks the 21st year of National Child Day in Canada. On this date in 1993 the Canadian Government enacted Bill C-371, otherwise known as the Child Day Act. It is a bill which commemorates the United Nations (UN) adoption of two documents regarding the rights of all children and youths. On National Child Day, Canada honours our children, as well as The United Nations Declaration of the Rights of the Child which happened on November 20, 1959, and The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child on November 20, 1989. The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child explains the basic human rights to which children (under the age of 18) everywhere are entitled to. Some of these rights are: the right to a name and an identity, the right to an education, the right to a safe, protective, loving, and nurturing living environment, the right to food and clothing, the right to an opinion, friends, and interests, the right to physical and mental protection from all harm, the right to your own religion and belief practices, and the right to rest and play. The Community Action Program for Children (CAPC) is a community-based family drop-in program delivered by the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC). It was established in 1993 as a direct result of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. For information about local CAPC programs, please contact Niki at 250-4218096 or e-mail capccran@gmail.com The purpose of Child Day is to promote
and increase awareness regarding the Convention. It is a day to educate all Canadians on the Rights of the Child. It is especially important to educate children on these rights. This education will help children and their peers know what they are entitled to. It will make them aware of what rights in are and what sort of personal and social responsibility comes with having them. It will help educate children to know if their rights have been violated, and finally it gives them social and personal power which helps them feel good about themselves. As adults, we can support and advocate for all Canadian children’s rights by voicing our concerns about Canadian children’s rights violations to the politicians of Canada, become educated on the Rights of the Child, and educate children about their rights and responsibilities. Children are gifts that need to be celebrated with encouragement and love. So, on
November 20th – and every single day – celebrate the children in and around your life and the world. For more information go to Unicef Canada’s website (www.unicef.ca/en/take-action/ article/celebrate-national-child-day-2014), or the Public Health Agency website (www. phac-aspc.gc.ca/ncd-jne/kit-eng.php) for print-outs and activity ideas.

Political doings near and far T he local political scene will return to somewhat of a normal state after the drama (mainly on our Letters to the Editor pages) of the municipal election. And what a dramatic turn of events it was as voters opted for the new. All in for Cranbrook with an entirely new Mayor and councillors and partially new in Kimberley with a new Mayor and two new councillors. We wish Mayor-Elect Lee Pratt and the Council in Cranbrook and Mayor-Elect Don McCormick and his Council in Kimberley the best of luck as they navigate the sometimes treacherous waters of local governance. And while we were somewhat obsessed with local goings on, politics across the land continued apace. There were some surprises as well, and as always interesting tidbits across the country. In PEI no one saw the resignation of popular Liberal Premier Robert Ghiz coming. Eight years a Premier of Canada’s smallest province, the 40-year old Ghiz informed his Caucus colleagues he was resigning just moments before he formally did so. And all across the land of the bright red mud the collective reaction was.. “Wha..?” What would make a politician at the top of his game suddenly resign? The cynic in me will always look for scandal. But in the ensuing days, no skeleton has
leapt from Ghiz’s closet. He appears to be a stand-up guy. Now one thing Ghiz said in his speech was that though he did not have any intention of running federally, he did not rule it out. Duh, duh, duh! Could Ghiz be thinking of hitching his wagon to the Trudeau train? A federal election looms in 2015, the Liberals continue to do fairly well in the polls, though as we know that can all shift in a moment’s notice. But, Ghiz could Carolyn very well parlay his solid Grant term as Premier into a seat in Ottawa. We will continue to check to see if the PEI potato is sprouting. I’ll keep you informed. And here’s an interesting snippet from Newfoundland that may send chills down the spines of city councillors who may wish to swim against the tide. Mary Gary Gosine on Bell Island is trying to oust two councillors, whose behaviour he says is harassing in nature and interfering with the normal operations of the community. The Mayor told CBC News, “‘These two don’t want to vote on anything. Not even on an agenda. That’s not good enough for the town. We have two people on council that feels everything has to be their way.” It has created enough of a fuss that the province has stepped in to investigate. And last month, the RCMP had to be called in to a bargaining session between the town and the union when two councillors got into an argument over the ne-
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
gotiations. We shall hope the rock doesn’t devolve into the government style of another island, Taiwan, where flying fists in the legislature barely raise an eyebrow. Meanwhile in Quebec the Charbonneau commission concluded its two and a half year investigation into corruption in the construction industry. Apparently, “Charbonneau uncovered collusion, kickbacks, illegal campaign financing, organized crime infiltrating construction”. Oy. The corruption has cost two mayors their jobs and left a rather bad taste in the mouths of taxpayers. Charbonneau promised on Twitter that ‘together, collectively we will build an ethical corruption-free and collusion-free society”. That’s a tall order. Let’s all watch while they do that. And Manitoba has gone through an upheaval of its own. Premier Greg Selinger withstood a rebellion by five prominent cabinet ministers, who called for his resignation. The ministers (now former ministers as the Premier accepted all their resignations) said that the boss man was not listening to their concerns/advice and they couldn’t continue on. The Premier promptly replaced them. The press is calling them “The Gang of Five”. Ooh, how very chilling. And when I say chilling in Manitoba, you know I mean it. The jury is out on whether Selinger survives. Look at that, I couldn’t even get half way across the country in 600 words. And people say politics are boring.

We’re all we need Kootenay Ice rattle off two more wins; extend streak to five
Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor
Don’t look now, but the Kootenay Ice have strung together five wins in a row. Beginning a critical stretch of five consecutive games against WHL Central Division opponents, the Ice got off to the start they needed this past weekend, edging the Calgary Hitmen in overtime Friday, before disposing of the Lethbridge Hurricanes on the road Saturday. “We have confidence now,” said Kootenay Ice forward Tim Bozon after Friday’s win. “We have a good group of guys. If you look at our last three wins, they’re all onegoal wins…That shows a lot of character. It’s not that we’re winning games by three or four goals. It shows a lot of character and that’s always good. “We know if we want to move up in the standings, we have to win some road games.” The home win against the Hitmen pushed the Ice to 6-4-0-0 at Western Financial Place this season. Saturday’s 4-2 win in Lethbridge was only the second road triumph of the campaign for the Ice, now 2-9-0-0 away from Cranbrook. Friday night at Western Financial Place was a wild one, as the Hitmen and Ice went back and forth before Luke Philp’s overtime marker ended the indecision with less
than 15 seconds to play in extra time. “In the first period, we came out a little bit flat, but we got going after that,” said forward Zak Zborosky, who managed a goal and assist against Calgary. “It was a wild one, a couple goals back and forth. It was a fun game to play.” The Central Division rivals exchanged the lead three times before the 19-year-old Philp beat Hitmen goaltender Evan Johnson with a quick snapshot, wrapping up a 7-6 victory for the hosts. “The coaches aren’t too happy with that, but sometimes it’s just the way the game goes,” Philp said Friday. “Lots of times guys are looking for offense and if the [defenceman] is pinching up or you miss the net wide, it creates offense the other way. There’s no real explanation for the way it went [against Calgary], but I guess we’ll take the two points.” Tim Bozon gave the Ice a chance to win when he tied the game with a short-handed tally late in the third period. “I was a little bit frustrated after the second period and I said, coming into the third, I have to step up my game and do things a little bit better,” Bozon said. “That’s what I did. I stepped up and got some good luck to score that goal to feel a little bit better.” The native of Val-
bonne, France, posted a goal and an assist in Friday’s win, while line mate Sam Reinhart rattled off four assists, including helpers on the tying and winning goals. Philp’s game-winner capped a standout fourpoint performance (2G, 2A) for the veteran forward against the Hitmen. In Saturday night’s 4-2 win in Lethbridge, the native of Canmore, Alta., continued where he left off against Calgary. Philp took a feed from none other than Sam Reinhart before sending the puck past Hurricanes goaltender Zac Robidoux on the power play, giving the Ice a 3-1 lead in the second period. The tally stood as the eventual winner, giving the 5-foot-10 Philp winning tallies two nights in a row. “We’re never giving up on games when we get down,” Philp said Friday. “Following the system the way it’s meant to be played is working for us right now.” While the power-play tally was Philp’s only point of the night, Reinhart continued to steadily stack up the points, earning a goal and two assists in Lethbridge. With seven points in two games this weekend, the Buffalo Sabres star prospect has 10 points (3G, 7A) in four games since his return to Cranbrook.
Ice goaltender Wyatt Hoflin earned his seventh and eighth wins of the campaign, turning aside 52 of the 60 shots he faced this weekend. With two more wins this weekend, the Ice (813-0-0) pull out of the WHL’s Central Division cellar into fifth place, two points ahead of sixth-place Lethbridge ((5-12-3-1). There’s still plenty of ground to be made up, as fourthplace Calgary (10-8-1-2) holds a seven-point cushion as of Sunday, Nov. 16 at 4 p.m. The Central Division cruise continues for the Kootenay Ice when they host the division-leading Medicine Hat Tigers (14-4-1-1) Wednesday, Nov. 19 at 7 p.m. Notes: The Hitmen and Ice have combined to score 34 goals in three games this season, including 24 goals at Western Financial Place…The Kootenay Ice skated one player short both nights as F Kyle O’Connor (lower body, one to two weeks) and F Levi Cable (lower body, two to three weeks) were injured in practice late last week…O’Connor and Cable joined F Jon Martin (upper body, one to two weeks) and D Tanner Faith (upper body, two to four weeks) on the injured list…A total of 2,329 fans took in Friday’s jaw-dropping overtime contest against the Hitmen...

MONTREAL - Jonathan Crompton threw touchdown passes to S.J. Green and Duran Carter and the Montreal defence was a wall as the Alouettes defeated the B.C. Lions 50-17 in the CFL East Division semifinal on Sunday afternoon. Back-up quarterback Tanner Marsh ran in two TDs. Brandon Rutley and Chris Rainey each ran one in and Jerald Brown scored on a fumble recovery as the Alouettes put up their first playoff win in four tries since their last Grey Cup win in 2010. Montreal will face the Tiger-Cats in the East final next Sunday in Hamilton. Shawn Gore and Ernest Jackson had late touchdowns and Paul McCallum had a field goal for the Lions, who finished fourth in the West but crossed over because they had a better record than the East’s third-place team, the Toronto Argonauts. In the CFL West semifinal, the Edmonton Eskimos led the Saskatchewan Roughriders 18-10 in the fourth quarter at press time. The winner will face the Calgary Stampeders in the CFL West final Sunday.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You might be overthinking a problem that you feel you must handle today. A serious talk with a loved one could result in an effective solution. Tune in to your instincts if you feel someone or an offer is too good to be true. Tonight: Get together with a friend for dinner. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Your creativity dominates the early morning. You might wonder why someone seems so serious. In an attempt to change this person’s mood, you might cause a problem. Try to listen to what he or she has to say, and honor his or her feelings. Tonight: Know when to call it a night. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You seem to have the right words at the right time, only someone might not hear them. This person could be too wrapped up in his or her own issues. The unexpected will occur with a friend or in a meeting. Tonight: Finish up any important work, then decide.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) You’ll want to initiate a conversation in the morning, yet as the day goes on, you might have mixed feelings. You will gain a new perspective on this matter once you detach from the thought of having the actual talk. Tonight: Buy a favorite dessert on the way home. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) A conversation will let you know that you and a friend are on the same page. A child or loved one could distract you, which is likely to make it difficult to pay attention to this person. Consider taking part of the day off. Tonight: Make light of the moment. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Your high energy might be off-putting to those who are experiencing a slow start to the day. Others won’t be as positive or as open as you seem to be. By the afternoon, consider getting a head start on holiday shopping -- at least make a list. Tonight: Run errands on the way home. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You could be out of sorts in the morning, but by the afternoon,
Tundra
you’ll feel a change in energy. Make an important phone call or start an important project. A partner or loved one could act in the most unpredictable manner. Remain nurturing and kind. Tonight: All smiles. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) In the morning, there could be an awkward moment or two with a friend, but you’ll still be able to complete whatever you are doing. In the evening, you might be doing a lot of thinking. Do yourself a favor and don’t jump to any conclusions yet. Tonight: Play it low-key. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You could be much fussier than you realize, and it is likely to cause a problem. It is important to know when to let go of certain issues, especially when dealing with others, as they could personalize your comments. The afternoon allows a key meeting to go smoothly. Be ready to encounter an awkward moment or two. Tonight: Catch up on weekend news. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Detach, and try not to get in-
volved in a situation that might be difficult to handle. With a broader perspective, what might have seemed like a big issue suddenly will be irrelevant. It would be smart to let others deal with it in the way they want. Tonight: Till the wee hours. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Deal with others directly, as you are likely to benefit from having one-on-one conversations. Some of you could be eyeing a major change within a relationship, while others might be about to meet someone new. Tonight: Daydream all you want. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Allow greater give-and-take between you and others. Have a conversation with someone whom you rarely speak to but who often facilitates your life. One-on-one relating will be highlighted in the afternoon. Tonight: Continue the theme of togetherness.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I am the stepmother of a lovely young woman, age 29. “Daria” was 2 when her mother left, and her older brother has reported that Mom was neglectful and suffered fits of rage. She actually told the children on many occasions that she couldn’t stand them. She continually took them elsewhere to be cared for. Luckily one of those places was our house. My husband eventually taught the children to simply accept their mother as she is and to rise above it. But the result seems to be that Daria shows very little emotion. She is attractive and smart and makes friends easily, but all of her relationships dry up after a short while. She is cold and distant. I have never seen her cry, even when her pets died. How can we get her to open up? -- Other Mother Dear Other Mother: Daria may have learned to close off her emotions because her mother’s behavior was so erratic and neglectful. In order to protect herself, she learned not to care, because then, when she was rejected, it wouldn’t hurt as much. She may even be precipitating and causing rejection because she has become adept at dealing with it. Unfortunately, after all these years, the behavior is difficult to change without professional intervention. Please suggest to Daria that she speak to a therapist who can help her connect with others in a more meaningful way. We hope she will. Dear Annie: When did it become acceptable to bring board games with you when you are invited to someone’s home for dinner? I am a senior citizen. I think fondly of people when I plan, budget, shop and prepare the nice homemade meal that I invite them to enjoy with me. I have cleaned my house just a little more closely and managed to pretty myself up as well as reasonably can be expected. I want to relax and enjoy good conversation, along with their smiling faces. I don’t understand why they expect me to be able to keep up and catch on to the rules of their favorite board games. After all my preparations, I’m just too pooped. I only want to share their company and some interesting conversation. -- Tired in the Tropics Dear Tropics: You’ll forgive us for finding this problem rather charming. So many readers complain about dinner guests who whip out their cellphones and never look up at all, let alone engage in a group activity. If friends bring over board games, it’s simple enough to say, “Let’s put the games away. I’d much rather have a conversation.” Then follow up with a question they might like to answer. But it’s also quite easy to converse while playing a board game, so you might want to keep a supply of games on hand that you already know and don’t mind playing. Dear Annie: I’d like to respond to “Trying To Be Respectful,” whose mother-in-law insists that she take communion. As a recent convert to Catholicism, I have noticed that many cradle Catholics do not possess a clear understanding of their faith. Only those who have been baptized and confirmed in the Catholic Church are eligible to take communion at a Catholic mass. The daughter-in-law can either stay seated during communion, or get in the communion line but cross her arms over her chest, which signifies to the priest or communion minister that she is merely seeking a blessing, which she will be given without partaking in communion. This way she respects her own beliefs and doesn’t offend anyone else. The person with the problem is the mother-in-law. As you suggested, she needs to talk to her priest and come to an understanding of what her Catholic faith actually teaches. -- California Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

YOUTH AGAINST VIOLENCE LINE

It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our Cherished Mother. She was our Rock. Mom was born December 8, 1929, in Young, Saskatchewan, to Emil & Clara Eiteneier (nee Shumacher). Her parents were born in Russia and they were a very hardworking farm family. In 1949 she married Jack Fitzpatrick in Langley and they were blessed with 4 healthy children. They lived on a mini-farm until 1964, then moved to Cache Creek where Jack worked for BC Hydro and mom grew the children and kept a beautiful warm home. In 1973 they moved to Kimberley, and in 2009 Mom moved to Kamloops as a widow. Mom adored her family and always encouraged us to work hard and test our wings. And then use them! She worked hard all her life, getting great pleasure from her garden and home. She spoiled us with jams, baked & pickled goods, not to forget her Sunday night dinners; her creativity produced quilts and blankets and many hand sewn treasures. Having frequent access to her extended family brought her great joy after she moved to Kamloops and allowed us to try and spoil her just a little. It was a wonderful thing to see her eyes twinkle, to hear her laugh, to share a memory. Predeceased by her parents, her husband, brother and 3 sisters, beloved Granddaughter Morgan and Daughter in law Connie, she is lovingly remembered by her children Morley (Debbie), (Marietta & Rick Laing}; Marvyn (Connie, deceased), Marlene (Rob), Laurie (John); her brother Gus (Vi) Eiteneier from Midale SK., her grandchildren Charlene (Pete), Devon (Christina), Gilford (Carly), Tyler, Johnathan, Robyn, Jenna, Alyse, Keenan and Sean. Her 10 great grandchildren will have Gramâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s memory kept alive for them. She will be missed so much by so many. Special thanks to her caregivers at Kamloops Seniorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s village, and at Gemstone. Special thanks to sister Debbie for her loving devotion to Mom.

Kozak voted Nelson’s first female mayor Nelson Star
Deb Kozak has been voted Nelson’s first female mayor, defeating incumbent John Dooley by a little under 300 votes. Kozak had 1,756 votes to Dooley’s 1,475, while retired police officer Pat Severyn came third with 780. “I’m so looking forward to the next four years working with this council. It’s going to be great,” said Kozak, to thunderous cheers from her supporters at the Legion. Her husband Pete and her son Terry stood clapping nearby, and embraced her. Kozak told the Star the first point of business is to speak with the new council to see what they heard from constituents while campaigning. “I think the first step that I’m going to take is to sit down with the councillors and my team, because elections are a great time of opening in the community, where we’re really engaged in the community and all of these people have been engaging with different people. I want to know what they heard with this election.”

COTR Nursing students holding blood pressure clinics November 20 F o r t h e To w n s m a n
College of the Rockies’ Bachelor of Science in Nursing students will be holding community blood pressure clinics in Cranbrook on November 20. The free clinics will be held at both Tim Hortons locations from 10:00am to 12:00pm and from 1:00 to 3:00pm and also at the Cranbrook Curling Club from 1:00 – 3:00pm. College of the Rockies Registered Nursing instructor Barb Fenwick says, “This is a terrific opportunity for the community to access free, accurate blood pressure testing while also supporting our students in their continued learning in the program.” Monitoring your blood pressure is an important way to watch for unknown health issues, especially as you age. According to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada, high blood pressure is the number one correctable risk for stroke and is also a major risk factor for heart disease. “Most individuals who have high blood pressure have no symp-

Creston Mayor Ron Toyota re-elected to third term Lorne Eckersley Creston Valley Advance
Creston Mayor Ron Toyota was returned to a third term in office on Saturday as he easily outdistanced four challengers. The only incumbent in the town council race, Joanna Wilson, returns for a fourth term after finishing fifth among 13 who were vying for six seats. Wilson was one of five candidates who Toyota said at a candidates forum that he had
voted for in the advance polls. The other four were also elected. Chartered accountant Kevin Boehmer topped the polls, grabbing 1,126 votes. He was followed by former Fort Nelson councillor Karen Unruh (1,100), retired insurance agency owner Jim Elford (1,028), Creston Valley Farmers’ Market manager Jen Comer (982) and Wilson (878). Joe Snopek
picked up the sixth seat with 815 votes, and brings experience as both mayor and councillor to the table. It was a rough night for the Action Creston slate of candidates, as Creston voters rejected the party concept. Tom Mann, with 18 years of experience as a Regional District of Central Kootenay director, finished third in the mayoralty race, taking 343 votes, while

former town administrator Bill Hutchinson finished second with 418 votes. Rhonda Barter (148) and Jared LeBlanc (67) finished well behind. Arnold DeBoon had the strongest showing of Action Creston candidates, finishing in seventh place in the council race with 759 votes. His teammates, Lon Hansen (493) and Penny A.P. Anderson (328), were ninth and 12th among the 13 candidates. Ed Vondracek (536), Daniel Geurts (378), Evelyn Bradford (357) and Myrna Johnson (309) were also unsuccessful in their attempts to win a council seat. “Obviously I am very pleased,” Toyota said following his victory. “This has been a frustrating campaign, with incorrect information being spread by some of the candidates. I am happy that voters saw through the nonsense, though. I think we have a very strong group to move forward with.”
